Why Do You Keep Dragging Me Into Your Crap?

In hour 2 of The Armstrong & Getty Show:

  • Biden's press conference and the response
  • Pre-written obituaries
  • Dynamic pricing happening more and more
  • Inflation is cooling and how Biden lied about it 

 

Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio the George Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty.

I'm strong, and Jetty and know he ar'm strong and yetty.

Russia will not prevail in this war. Ukraine will prevail in this war, and we'll stand with them every single step of the way. That's what the compact says loudly and clearly. And now I want to hand it over to the President of Ukraine, who has as much courage as he has determination. Ladies and gentlemen, President Putin, President Putin, You've got to beat President Putin. President Lynsky, I'm so focused on beating Putin. We gotta worry about it anyway. It's President you are.

Thank you very much. Yeah, that's that's funny, Michael.

That was uh and his you know, the pro Democrat commentators are like. But he quickly corrected himself. Yeah, with some rambling old man nonsense.

Wow, some journalists I don't know, tweeted out. Zelensky must hate this stupid country so bad. He's been at the center of eight of the ten stupidest things to happen here over the last decade. You know, because you got the Trump phone call and he got roped into that. It's like, I got nothing to do with this.

And then the.

Whole uh Biden going over there and you know, going to fire the prosecutor, and then that whole thing Ohn with this either and then all the Hunter Biden stuff with the company that leave me out of it.

Yeah, why do you keep.

Dragging me into your crap? Right, let's get this out of the way. The other big gaff of the evening thirty three, Michael, what.

Concerns do you have about Vice President Harris's ability to beat Donald Trump if she were at the top of the ticket.

Look, I wouldn't have picked Vice President Trump to be vice president, So I think she's not qualified to be president.

So let's start there.

So Joe Getty cherry picks the two worst moments of an hour of talking from the President to try to portray him.

As old and the brain don't work. Correct.

Yes, Ah, glaring gaffs from a man who couldn't afford any of them. His goose is cooked. It's just a question of when it comes out of the oven. And we can talk more about that in a little bit. But I thought this was such a great comment a column by Kim Stresell, who's pointing out that if Democrats think Joe Biden is their biggest, their only problem, or even their biggest one, they're wrong.

And I'm so glad.

You put this out because it's easy to get caught up in the current of the news of the day. But as she points out, the whole who can win, who's best among black voters, Union's hispanics or whatever, it's the wrong question. The Democratic Party, sharp moved to the left, are deeply unpopular with the electorate. Occasionally we will point out Trump's weakness, you know, saying that Biden.

Is clearly I mean, he is a husk of a man.

He is closer to death than he is another term, and yet Trump remains tied with him. Well, in spite of Trump's unpopularity, the Democrats remain tied with him because their ideas are so bad. And she points out that, you know, well, I'll just read from her, Colum, don't forget how a man pushing eighty came to office. The twenty twenty Democratic primary was dominated by candidates vying to curry favor with the rising progressive left, Worried that Bernie Sanders would kill a chance at the White House, voters turn to the only fixed, true claim to be moderate. He was a two time presidential primary loser, as old as Methuselah and slipping even then, but whatever, he was deemed the only candidate able to beat Donald Trump, which is probably true. Even four years ago, the party understood pure progressivism to be a political liability. And then she gets into the you know, the checklist of the wide open border, incredibly inflationary fiscal policy, the progressive prosecutors who enable to crime wave all across America, a foreign policy for the middle class, whatever that means in bolding America's adversaries. So yeah, the guy's old and senile, but he's also been a disaster policy wise, and the Democratic Party has been seized by its left flank, which is why you see the most staunch support coming from other than John Fetterman, who has utterly mystified me in this episode. But you see the most strongly worded support for Bernie and from AOC from ilhan Omar.

For God's sake, that's a farre left. That's a good point. That's a pretty good point.

Yeah, yeah, why do you suppose that is well? It's partly because they have grabbed the reins of the party to a large extent. It's also because if they are his staunchest supporters and he does stay the course and win, which ain't gonna happen, but he will owe them so much and you will see a further leftward lurch.

Be all right, it's some more centrist Democrats that are questioning his ability to stay in the race, not the super Libs, which is not what you would expect necessarily.

Yeah, it's and why that is It just kind of clicked in my head. And this is probably semi obvious, but you know, you give me long enough, I'll come up with the obvious. It is so difficult to seize the attention of the voters and primary voters with a moderate, reasonable message.

It's super easy to.

Be I'm the king of our tribe. Listen to how crazy and extreme my ideas are. That's that's so much easier, especially among the Democrats that lean socialists anyway. So, yeah, it's it's it's a tough time for moderates.

Well, do you remember that primary when you had Betto and Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders and others on the stage crawling over each other to give more free health care to everybody, medical aliens, Medicare forever for all. I'm gonna give medicare to all, including illegals. I think that was Kamala's position, Medicare for all, including illegals. I'm gonna give medicare to all, including illegals and people.

Who haven't even immigrated yet.

That's right, We're gonna pay for foreigner's medical care.

And one of a who's a black guy who was running as a Democrat in that and I remember him on one of the debates saying.

We're leaving out black Trends's women here?

Who's talking about black trans Wow?

Boy right, I'd forgotten. Slice it pretty thin though.

That's why power brokers like Clyburn, who's on NBC right now talking about Biden's stand in Clyburn in South Carolina came Ford, we're gonna lose and said, we gotta get Biden. He's the only normal person up here. He was the closest to normal anyway, and that's how he ended up being in the nominee and then the president. But that's interesting that that left flank is the one that's shoring him up here at the end.

Yeah, I feel like and.

It's tough because we do this job that, you know, we're so immersed in this sort of stuff knowing what regular people think.

I don't know what regular people think, but.

I feel like I feel like we've gotten so far down the road that if he came out this hour, the president and said I'm not gonna run, it wouldn't even be hardly shocking or interesting, be like, yeah, we figured that, we just wondered when you were gonna say it, so onto the who's next? Don't you think he kind of feel that way, like it's just it's just it's just when you finally tell us.

Yeah, I think the the scribes and pundits of the world would say, whether it would in tone, in serious stones, how shocking and historic this is. It is shocking, I have to But it doesn't land that way.

Not at point oh finally okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, not after two weeks since the debate, it doesn't feel that way. It feels more like, well, of course, tell you what would would really stir my adrenaline would be if like on Monday or Tuesday, it comes out on to the south lawn or the east lawn or the West pick a lawn, any lawn, and says, I.

Am in this to win it. We're in it to November. No way, we're backing down now. That would be nutty. Yeah, well that might happen again.

He's doing a Lester Holt NBC interview, just like the Stephanopolis thing he did a week ago.

It's going to do that with Lester hold on Monday. See how he does on that.

And the media is out to get him, so they aren't going to do him any favorable treatment like all these radio stations have been.

Doing for years. Did you see that story?

So another radio broadcaster came forward yesterday and explained how not only had he been given the questions that he was supposed to ask Joe Biden ahead of time, but then they and they interviewed him off the air. They told him what parts to cut out of the interview and edit out various parts that are going to be troubling or want good answers, and then only aired the portion that was okay with them.

If they'd asked us to do that, Number one, we'd have told him to go to hell. But secondly, I would have been on the phone to the journal or somebody the next day, All right, how do you not recognize what an enormous story you have there, sir or Adam?

Don't know, I guess because you think it's so dangerous to have Trump be elected, you're willing to play along. Yeah, yeah, good point, But god, don't you have any I just I couldn't do that for any politician. Gonna tell you what questions asked me? No, you're not gonna tell me what questions ask.

I want to understand what I believe you to be implying that these journalists have chucked all of their professional ethics for biased partisan reasons.

Ben go find that a shocking.

In this particular instance, and I should read them because they're kind of interesting. They edited out some stuff where he talked about the blacks in a in a weird way that was going to be uncomfortable.

Yeah, I'd love I'd love to hear that, honestly so on air meeting, the Washington Free Beacon, responding to some really awful obituary headlines lately from the mainstream media, says, oh yeah, all right, we're gonna write our own obituary headlines for prominent Democrats. Very funny highly inappropriate. Do we do we do? We do it on the air and not. It's really distasteful.

Michael, you have the phrase we go by if make chagrin, you'll leave it in there.

You go, all right, I'll have that for you. Not among other things coming up, stay with us armstrong.

But get this.

According to a new poll, Biden and Trump are tied in the race. Yeah, they're both pulling at an impressive three percent.

Even though they're tied, the.

Majority of Biden's supporters think that he should step aside. At this point, I think we can stop calling them supporters.

That's a decent point art there. Yeah, Biden supporters. Twenty two thirds of Biden supporters say you shouldn't run. How are you a supporter?

Again? What supporters like these?

So Andrew Styles is a very funny guy rights for the Free Beacon these days, pointing out that excuse me, your liberal papers. There there are headlines for obituaries of late have been unforgivable, specifically James Enhoff, who was a Senator forever for Oklahoma. The headline the New York Times is James m Enholf for senator who denied climate change dies at eighty nine.

You've got to be kidding me.

One of the most important senators in the last century. And they just picked that for their headline.

War hero right right at the time that we're having the World War two D Day anniversary celebrating all those people. He's one of your great we'll go down that road, but he is one of your great war hero stories.

Right, wow, right, And then they mentioned wow, that is awful.

Yeah, les, his family, I would be so outraged. You don't put war hero or any of that stuff in there about his biography. That is how he got elected over and over again. You put climate denier. Give me a break.

Yeah, I know, terrible. And then they reset the infamous Washington Post headline, Abu Baker al Baghdaddi, austere religious scholar at helm of Islamic state, dies at forty eight. Austere religious scholar. Good Lord happens all the time, not just when a Republican dies. Mainstream journalists are also in the habit of writing absurdly fawning headlines about their friends. For example, New York Times eulogized Cuban dictator Fidel Castro quote as a revolutionary who defied the US unbelievable.

So anyway, Andrew Style.

Says, well, okay, we've updated our pre written obituary headlines for prominent Democrats.

We hope these.

Revisions will more accurately reflect the style and tone of our mainstream peers. So if any of these people kick off today, there will be the headline Hillary Rodham email user who carried hot sauce in purse.

Dies at seventy six. Oh, that's good.

And they actually they pose it as different publications. That was the New York Times for Breitbart. B Houssein Obama fiction author who did ben Ghazi dead at sixty two, alleged Muslim dog eater, fantasy about gay sex, hosted hip hop barbecue that created zero jobs.

Name hip hop barbecue, zero jobs. That's funny. That is funny.

The one about Nancy Pelosi makes reference to her her rather large boosoms. I'm gonna go with that. It's childish. Here's a New York Times headline. And when aoc croaks Tesla owners cankles caught the eyes of critics.

Now she's dead at thirty four. Wow. Al Jazeira Glory to the martyr.

Ilhan Omar, a home wrecking mistress who taught daughter to hate Jews dies at forty one. Squad Gal's brother Morn's loss of sister wife. San Francisco Chronicle with the picture would help Willie Brown in a certain attractive thirty year old young lady Willie Brown's ex girlfriend dead at fifty nine. For Kamala, oh hey, by the way, there's a there's an emerging narrative.

In fact, we even got an email about.

It that people call her Kamala or whatever or Kamala and they're mispronouncing her name in an effort to demeanor and it's probably racism.

Blah blah blah blah. All right.

Number one, I know a lot of people, including journalists, who honestly don't know how to pronounce their name properly because they've heard it so many different ways, so many times.

Secondly, which is correct? I think I say Kamala all the time. Kamala, Yeah, that's how she pronounces it.

Although when Obama first became a big deal in the capitol of California, she said she made it known she wanted to be called Kamala so it would sound more like Obama Obama. While yeah, yeah, let's see, Washington Post has a picture of Joe Biden next to Commander and Hunter there and the headline is local artist's father eighty one eaten by dog, the Harvard Crimson picture.

Of the dearly departed.

Elizabeth Warren Pow Wow Chow contributor decapitated at State Fair. I don't know how that would have And then the one for Bill Clinton from TMZ, I will not rate on the.

Air, that's right.

So Elizabeth Warren had that family recipe for some sort of in Native American food that she contributed to a.

Cookbook, which is part of it Wow Wow show.

That's part of the reasons she ended up working at Harvard as a person of color.

Yes, exactly, Native American. M Yeah.

So we got some of the details on what do they edited out of a radio interview. So if Kamala Harris ends up the nominee like Tuesday, which could easily happen, does the Willie Brown relationship rise to power become a story?

Sure?

Yeah, on the right side of the media aisle. Nobody I'll mention it except in passing on the left. And if they whoever they are, ordain her to be the heir apparent, there's going to be a fight over that. I don't picture the Democratic Party going quietly along with that plan.

You're a big old fight. Yeah, I'll bet you're right. That'll be fun to watch.

Hilori Rodham email user who carried hot sauce in purse six seventy six.

That's just funny, Man Armstrong and Geeddy.

So apparently fast food companies are trying out that surge pricing.

Model after all.

This picture was uploaded to the Mildly Infuriating Subreddit. Apparently, when they went to check out with their meal, Burger King raised the price from thirty three eighty nine to thirty four eighteen as they were checking out. Nothing new was added. They didn't ask for an additional sauce. It just said, hey, some of the prices of the items in your cart have changed.

You See, I'm old enough.

To remember back in the day when you would go to a place like McDonald's and they'd say, hey, for thirty nine cents extra, do you want to supersize your meal? And now we're being told, hey, for twenty nine cents extra, do you want to you know, keep the meal that you originally agreed to pay for?

Okay, Well, so that's the dynamic pricing thing that's catching on all over. We talked to him about yesterday with airlines, but like at fast food, I had the experience of a burger was so expensive, but Wenday's it was insane. And then I found out later because I was eating at dinner time, when the prices go up in the middle of the day, it's less expensive. I guess in this particular case, they ordered the food like right when it was the price was changing and.

Right, And the thing you're talking about yesterday had more to do with algorithmically individualized price.

Yeah.

So this would be like if Burger King I walk in and they look at my watch and see my car in the parking lot. Things twenty bucks for that. I don't want to make in those decisions, right exactly. Got this note from Adam. Let's see, he was looking for an item on Amazon. Noticed it was a few dollars more than it had been the previous time he looked at it.

So I checked the home Depot app. They had it for the original price. So I thought, all right, do I go to the store for a few bucks I don't know, went back to the Amazon app, decided to see if they had anything comfortable in quality and Bubba b oscar rolls back to the Adaman question. It's back to the home depot, price back down again.

Wow.

I also love the free market, but I don't like this. Hopefully we can figure out a way that's to our advantage, but I doubt it. Yeah that the article I was quoting yesterday only said if you can show that it's demonstrably discriminating against people by race or whatever.

Yeah, no, no, no, doesn't sound like there's anything untoward or illegal or even even morally wrong with it.

I just don't like it.

So the airline websites, they'll even take a look at how long you stay, how long it takes you to make your decision. So if you kind of you click on the various flights and it hangs there for five minutes as you're thinking it over or talking to your wife or whatever, they'll they'll price things different in the future than if price comes up you click on it. Oh, clearly you're a person that's just going to accept whatever price it is. So we'll raise the prices a little bit, right, Yeah, we'll see what we can get away with. Yeah.

Well, and if they figure out all right, you got a one hundred and twenty thousand dollars car and you regularly I don't know, buy fine wine or what have you.

There's an algorithm somewhere that knows that.

And so yeah, they're gonna see if you'll pay twenty seven dollars where everybody else is paying nineteen because they don't care.

So it's interesting.

I mean, in terms of looks, I look like a homeless person most of the time, so I should get lower prices. But now, if they're going to dig into your stuff, I wonder how common that's gonna be, with how many different things, and if there'll be an advantage in the future of not having stuff that makes it look like you can afford more.

Which buy generic Beanie weenies and apply for food stamps.

I don't know.

I don't know either to keep your prices down at Burger King or Southwest Airlines or wherever you know.

It occurs to me the free market will come up with a solution for that too, probably some sort of price comparison website, and there are plenty of those right now.

Man, if they extend this to like best Buy and you know, everywhere else where, I mean, why wouldn't you Yeah, whenever the new iPhone comes out, this person just buys it like the first week at that price. Yeah, and they go right to the website and click on it. They don't even spend like two minutes on it.

So charge more sure, And it's easy to picture Lowe's saying, Okay, Joe Getty bought the high end grill, so you know when he buys successories, let's check it up twenty percent.

See what happens and might work with grills. Has come to think of with the iPhones, everybody knows what the price of an iPhone is when the new iPhone comes out, so it'd be a little hard to move the prices around without people being unhappy about it.

But like, I don't have any idea what you pay for airline tickets or you me or anyone else, So those moving up and down substantially, you wouldn't have the slightest idea.

Well, I dress up like a tourist and sneak on generally speaking. But so we have some breaking political news. I don't know that it's donkey worthy, No, it's probably not donkey worthy, but politicos reporting that House Minority Leader Hakim Jeffries met privately with Joe Biden yesterday, quote relaying the anxiety of the Democratic Caucus directly to the president. Sorry to hear about your anxieties, Sarah, let's see and what oh did that just resell the son of a gun?

So Obama was on the phone with Nancy the news came out yesterday haw King Jeffrey's leader of the House Democrats goes directly to the president. Nancy Pelosi did her completely unconvincing. Well, he should make the decision himself. He's already made the decision. Well, we're going to allow him to think it over.

Thing, you know. The second thing was where was it? Damn it?

I just it was on the Twitter and then it reset on me. Gavin Newsom just tweeted, please read and he's proposing a a constitutional safety amendment that has to do with guns. And I wish I had it in front of me. It was nakedly clearly a presidential run.

That's interesting given the president out of nowhere shouting about girls being shot with guns last night. That just came out of nowhere.

Yeah, did somebody get some new polling saying, in addition to abortion, one of our best issues is guns. Bring that up because it's kind of weird that the president brought that up out of nowhere, and Gavin Newsom bringing it up this morning.

Yeah, let me go to his website. Maybe I can find it real quick. But I mean it's you get the point anyway. I just thought the way it was worded was pretty interesting. Why do I keep hitting space when I'm trying to hit the end.

Problem? Feras are too fat to play this since I just brought it up.

This particular montage includes the guns and stuff.

Forty seven Michael.

Control guns, not girls. More children are killed at up by the bullet in any other cause of death the United States of America.

What hell are we doing if I'm surrounded by good docs. If they think there's a problem.

I promise you, or that they don't think.

It's a problem.

I think I should have a neurological exam. Again, I'll do it. I believe I'm the best qualified to govern.

Okay, he's on a different topic in this contage, but yeah, that girls guns thing that he got into. They must have gotten some polling that that's a hot issue that can work for him. If you can't say neurological exam, you should probably get one.

I wanted to hit this real quick.

This is Megan McCardell in the Washington Post talking about how she's a right leaning journalist for the wappo, but she was talking about, hey, there wasn't a conspiracy here at the Washington Post or anywhere else by liberals to cover up the president's brain problem. It gets to just natural biases that people have. And she's arguing that you just need to get more conservatives in the newsrooms.

Which is obviously so true it should need to be said, Yeah.

Sure, just because of the way you look at the news, and you know, you run everything through your own biases every single day.

We all do. And then well, and.

I would argue as a business model, it just makes much more sense.

Well, I'll reader last two paragraphs and then we can comment on it. As a result of the coverage that they did, viewers of Fox News understood the president's condition way better than our audiences, which ought to have been a huge wake up call for us. We don't have the exact problem conservatives imagine that would be you know, cover up, But we do have a problem, and the only way to fix it is to add more viewpoint diversity. To our newsrooms. We should do this, and not for the benefit of conservative journalists or politicians, but for the benefit of our readers.

Duh.

When our newsrooms lopsidedly support one party, our readers miss much of the story, in this case, nearly all of it. We need conservatives inside the building help helping us overcome our natural biases instead of out, instead of outside complaining about them. We are readers in our country nothing less. How many people in the Washington Post newsroom, whether you're the receptionist or a columnist, ever watch anything on Fox.

Probably not very many, or look at the Free Beacon or National Review or anything like that, right, so you know you wouldn't have seen those stories.

And she also talks in there about what a great job the White House did of keeping the President away from people. We just don't have near as much access to him as you think we do, so we hear about his condition, but then we see him very seldom, and it's just kind of hard to report on because they've kept him away so much.

Well, and given that we're all learning more about parkinsonism, meaning the broad category of neurological aging maladies, and that the physical signs of it coincide to some extent, at least with the neurological signs of it, because nobody cares if the president walks stiffly, it doesn't matter. But it matters because it's a sign of a much more important and serious problem.

So that makes the whole all of a sudden.

We got a gaggle of people walking around him, so you can't see his stride really seem insidious. God, I mean, I just thought that was kind of a weak and unnecessary pr thing. So he doesn't look old. No, I'd missed the significance of it, right, They were trying to shield scrutiny from his whatever he has.

I thought this paragraph was interesting.

This is a hard moment to make the point that it's not a conspiracy. Frankly, if we had been colluding to cover up the decline of a democratic president who then undid all our efforts by going on national television and breaking the story himself, well, how much different wouldever coverage have looked?

Yeah? No kidding, Yeah, if you had been covering up, it wouldn't have looked any different than it did.

Yeah, Okay, so it's not a conspiracy. It's a mass unspoken agreement to ignore the obvious.

Okay, well, yeah, or you know, it's not if you've got certain biases, it's not as obvious.

Yeah, and especially if you combine a bias with well, although it's more than a bias, because there are journalism schools, some of the I almost had most respected. I don't respect them more than a dog I pass on the street. But some of your highest profile journalism schools are actually teaching what you should do is be biased. You should be writing for a cause every single story. So I don't think calling it bias serves it. Really I'd like to talk to Megan mccardial about that. But if you combine that with media bubbledom, where a lot of those folks, I mean, like the USA today we quoted earlier, this guy is writing with a straight face, and it smells of sincerity to me that nobody had any idea that Biden was in decline until Robert Hurr said what he said about the nice old man with a failing memory, nobody knew.

I mean, I can't imagine that. No, I can't eve you're a professional journalist.

I would like to be been able to get inside the head of Democrats who were watching that debate, who were shocked because those of us who watched Fox had seen all those videos a gazillion times and laughed about them about how bad his brain was, so it wasn't surprising to us. We were like, oh, okay, finally this has happened on a big stage.

Well, and I would say in a more serious way, we had seen the decline and mapped it and were well aware of it. We have been discussing how the slow decline of age has in the last eighteen months become a plummet.

Meanwhile, at the.

USA today they just found out right weird, what any comments text line four one five two nine five kftc.

Armstrong Ngetti.

We've come a long way from that peak nine point one percent inflation, with prices between May and June even falling for the first time since the COVID pandemic four years ago, and it's been driven in large part by decreases in the cost of gasoline.

Car prices are also lower.

Meantime, prices on other household staples like groceries have stabilized over the last year, though they are up about twenty five percent since twenty nineteen, and while housing inflation continues to remain stubbornly high. Economists do see signs it is starting to cool. They see today's report as a signal the Fed will cut interest rates come September.

Yeah, inflation is down again, and there was talk of prices dropping, but it's for stuff like, you know, things that can have variable prices like cars. We all saw how used cars went crazy during COVID and then gone back down. But uh, cars, as they mentioned, they're gasoline that changes a lot. As they said, groceries have stabilized, so they're not going to continue to go up at the rate they've been going up before. But these prices are going to hang around for well, we're just until we just get used to them. I guess, man, I bought chicken breasts the other night.

I couldn't believe what chicken cost. Chicken costs what stink used to cost. Chicken used to be practically free.

Wow, wow, my eyes are up here, said the chicken. By the way, Jack is uggling, it's pressed. Yeah, it's brutal, and I'm certainly glad inflation is coming down. In fact, there's a tenth of a percent decline in overall prices. As you say, due to that sort of volatile price category stuff.

But yeah, that's good news for everybody. I don't know.

The sting of inflation is there and permanent and will not change in time for Novembers election.

I think it's a non factor. It's already baked into the election. Did I dream this again? I fell asleep. I was having a cold.

I had a fever while I was taking in this press conference last night, and I like, I can't know what what actually happened and what was a dream?

And when I was in my medicine or whatever. Did the President say something like a bear? Yes he did.

Did the presidents say something about experts told him that nothing he did caused inflation?

Yeah? He did say that, didn't he.

I missed the Nobel Prize winning economists say none of the things I did led to inflation.

Okay, well that's not what prize away.

Yeah, well they couldn't, you know, probably not where I won't get off on this tangent anyway. I'll use the phrase that you use to get out of a dead end on your thoughts.

Anyway. Biden said anyway nine times yesterday nine times he did the and then a yeah, anyway nine times he anyways.

Yeah, wow, oh that ship has sailed. Oh hey, speaking of Gavy Newsome, I'm sorry, were you about to jump into something? So I was trying to find that tweet and I can't for some reason. Where he's declaring his new safety Amendment to the Constitution, he's clearly, you know, positioning himself himself.

So I go to his Twitter feed.

The top tweet is him giving a speech somewhere in the Midwest. I think about what our economy look like under Donald Trump. Next tweet there he is going out for ice cream on a cool Pennsylvania day.

Wow, ice cream in a swing state. That's weird. And then below that Joe Biden is our next president.

This is straight up racist, responding to a headline about Kamala Harris that was in no way racist.

Wow.

His entire Twitter feed is national politics. Him giving speeches in front of adoring crowds across America.

Well that the outside chance that somehow he gets the nominee or they actually do have some sort of.

Hurried primary.

Yeah, Gavy is utterly congenitally dishonest, but he's a skilled politician. Now he's untested because California's the one party state. But he's a very good liar, very good, and so I could see him. We've been discussing some Democrat taking the ball and running for it in a short field with the you know, shaky financing and not proper vetting, and how you could lose then to Trump and be branded a loser. I think Gavy, slick as he is, could spin his way out of losing and say, hey, we took a shot at the impossible goal of trying to keep Trump out of the White House with three months time. Can you imagine a presidential campaign is three much time? But now we have all the time we need and all the money, and we have the policies.

I can see it is like he's going to take a shot. What about the shot?

What about the scrutiny that comes with running for president that you don't running for governor. I wonder what's in his past that we've never heard before that will be unearthed.
