10
00:00:26.280 --> 00:00:29.679
Thank you Sheriff Steve and John Caldera for covering while
11
00:00:29.679 --> 00:00:32.520
I was in this week's trial. Really do appreciate that.
12
00:00:32.679 --> 00:00:38.119
And Ryan and Kelly obviously always the critical infrastructure, as
13
00:00:38.119 --> 00:00:40.719
we like to say around here, but so much to
14
00:00:40.759 --> 00:00:43.119
talk about. I've been dying to dive into this with
15
00:00:43.159 --> 00:00:45.200
you in my business. You know, when we go to trial,
16
00:00:45.240 --> 00:00:48.079
obviously it's a bubble. Everything else gets frozen out twenty
17
00:00:48.119 --> 00:00:50.640
four to seven. You're focused on that case. So I've
18
00:00:50.679 --> 00:00:53.560
been playing catch up today and it is amazing what
19
00:00:53.640 --> 00:00:56.399
has been going on out there, and you would think
20
00:00:56.479 --> 00:00:59.039
it's going to cause a lot more Republicans to get elected.
21
00:00:59.079 --> 00:01:01.679
But we'll have that conversation as well, we want to
22
00:01:01.759 --> 00:01:05.359
lead with, of course, this public and I'll put battle
23
00:01:05.359 --> 00:01:09.120
in quotes just in case it's kind of staged between
24
00:01:09.120 --> 00:01:11.599
President Trump and Elon Musk. And one of the questions
25
00:01:11.599 --> 00:01:14.359
for you will be do you think it's staged at
26
00:01:14.359 --> 00:01:17.000
this point? And if so, to what end one way
27
00:01:17.040 --> 00:01:19.400
or the other? How do you think it does end?
28
00:01:19.480 --> 00:01:21.319
I mean, we all know it's going to end with
29
00:01:21.439 --> 00:01:25.879
a kumbaya, but how does that end? How does that happen?
30
00:01:25.959 --> 00:01:28.239
Three oh three seven one three eight two five five
31
00:01:28.599 --> 00:01:32.799
text d A N five seven seven three nine. I've
32
00:01:33.040 --> 00:01:36.200
indulge me one quick personal moment. I just I love
33
00:01:36.560 --> 00:01:40.359
Adam's County Courthouse. I love Adams County Court and just
34
00:01:40.359 --> 00:01:42.680
so grateful to our jury out there and to all JERRYS.
35
00:01:42.760 --> 00:01:47.280
Ryan picture this. Okay, seven thirty Monday morning. Okay, Monday
36
00:01:47.280 --> 00:01:50.280
mornings are tough as they are, right seven thirty Monday morning.
37
00:01:50.480 --> 00:01:53.079
And I always I make it a point in trial
38
00:01:53.159 --> 00:01:54.879
to be the first guy in the door of the courthouse,
39
00:01:55.239 --> 00:01:57.200
so I get there early, to be there when the
40
00:01:57.239 --> 00:01:59.040
door's open at seven thirty. How long do you think
41
00:01:59.079 --> 00:02:02.920
the line was at seven of jurors because they it
42
00:02:03.000 --> 00:02:05.640
turned out, they had our trial, which was an important trial,
43
00:02:05.640 --> 00:02:08.560
and then they had a murder trial. That line went
44
00:02:08.599 --> 00:02:11.360
on forever. I mean, I'll show you a picture. But
45
00:02:11.879 --> 00:02:13.919
so I'm walking up to the front door, and as
46
00:02:13.960 --> 00:02:16.879
an attorney, you know you can go in a side door.
47
00:02:16.919 --> 00:02:21.639
You can completely bypass the line, and that line all
48
00:02:21.680 --> 00:02:24.520
these good people they're leaving their families, their jobs, everything
49
00:02:24.520 --> 00:02:28.199
else to go serve as jurors. So I looked at
50
00:02:28.199 --> 00:02:31.039
that door, I looked at that line, and of course
51
00:02:31.120 --> 00:02:33.719
I walked it seemed like two blocks down to the
52
00:02:33.800 --> 00:02:35.680
end of the line, and dutifully took my place at
53
00:02:35.680 --> 00:02:38.240
the end of the line, as I should have. That
54
00:02:38.400 --> 00:02:40.919
door should not be there for attorney, in my humble opinion,
55
00:02:41.000 --> 00:02:42.960
maybe for the das who work in the building, but
56
00:02:42.960 --> 00:02:44.319
the rest of us should have to go to the
57
00:02:44.400 --> 00:02:46.439
end of the line. And of course that is what
58
00:02:46.479 --> 00:02:50.039
I did. But very grateful for the outcome, hard fought case.
59
00:02:50.039 --> 00:02:52.599
And it was funny I walked in today and we
60
00:02:52.680 --> 00:02:55.960
have this wonderful front desk coordinator and she said, I've
61
00:02:56.039 --> 00:02:59.120
never seen you, Matt before, because she came for closing argument.
62
00:02:59.759 --> 00:03:05.319
But it was a closing argument that required that honest,
63
00:03:05.400 --> 00:03:09.560
righteous anger, and fortunately the jury you know, got the
64
00:03:09.639 --> 00:03:12.520
case right, as they almost always do. So grateful for that.
65
00:03:12.800 --> 00:03:15.960
Now, what's your stance on cameras in the courtroom, Dan, Oh,
66
00:03:16.000 --> 00:03:18.120
I think they should be there. Yeah, I think they Yeah,
67
00:03:18.159 --> 00:03:19.479
I think they should be there all the time.
68
00:03:19.520 --> 00:03:23.919
They judge Edo's what's the plight where judge Edo something
69
00:03:24.000 --> 00:03:27.879
the pooch on that one, because otherwise we'd have him
70
00:03:27.919 --> 00:03:30.280
standard but he abused it and it's just say it
71
00:03:30.319 --> 00:03:30.879
a bad name.
72
00:03:31.560 --> 00:03:35.080
Are there a propensity? Is there a propensity?
73
00:03:35.240 --> 00:03:39.520
Would there be a likelihood that judges and attorneys would
74
00:03:39.560 --> 00:03:41.280
be playing to the cameras more?
75
00:03:41.319 --> 00:03:43.000
You know what I mean? No, that that's where itdo
76
00:03:43.120 --> 00:03:46.240
distorted it. Yeah, because there'd been plenty in the court
77
00:03:46.280 --> 00:03:48.840
cameras in the courtroom before I'd covered those trials, I'd
78
00:03:48.840 --> 00:03:50.800
been in those trials, I'd tried a case with cameras
79
00:03:50.800 --> 00:03:53.159
in the courtroom, and it just especially in this day
80
00:03:53.159 --> 00:03:56.039
and age ran where you know, most of so many
81
00:03:56.120 --> 00:03:58.800
people now into their twenty and thirties, camera's not a
82
00:03:58.800 --> 00:04:01.560
big deal. Grown up with the cell phone cameras, they've
83
00:04:01.560 --> 00:04:04.680
grown up with cameras everywhere, you know. For people older
84
00:04:04.719 --> 00:04:07.479
than that, then oh wow, there's a camera there everybody says, hey,
85
00:04:07.560 --> 00:04:09.639
you see the camera there. Now people are surprised if
86
00:04:09.639 --> 00:04:12.400
there's not a camera there. People assume everything they do
87
00:04:12.479 --> 00:04:15.400
is on cameras. So if Judge Edo had not messed
88
00:04:15.439 --> 00:04:18.600
up the OJ trial that way, then then cameras in
89
00:04:18.600 --> 00:04:20.879
the courtroom I think just would have been everywhere and
90
00:04:20.959 --> 00:04:25.600
generally accepted. But after OJ, yeah, yeah, you're starting to
91
00:04:25.600 --> 00:04:28.040
see it a little bit more. And now many of
92
00:04:28.079 --> 00:04:31.600
the courtrooms have cameras built in for the WebEx system
93
00:04:31.639 --> 00:04:35.480
that came in during COVID, and so it's easier to
94
00:04:35.519 --> 00:04:37.720
get a camera in the courtroom, and more and more
95
00:04:37.759 --> 00:04:40.519
trials are at least being televised that way, though it's
96
00:04:40.519 --> 00:04:42.639
not as good as having a TV camera in there.
97
00:04:42.680 --> 00:04:44.680
Do you think the Supreme Court of the United States
98
00:04:44.720 --> 00:04:45.720
will ever have cameras?
99
00:04:46.959 --> 00:04:51.560
Yes? I do, I do. They should, They should have already.
100
00:04:52.399 --> 00:04:55.759
The people deserve that. The people deserve that. And now
101
00:04:55.800 --> 00:04:57.839
at least you get audio out of the Supreme Court.
102
00:04:58.319 --> 00:05:01.639
That's relatively new. But give me break, it is all
103
00:05:01.680 --> 00:05:05.439
those people, all those people work for the people, right,
104
00:05:06.560 --> 00:05:09.199
so the people have to have access to that. They
105
00:05:09.240 --> 00:05:12.480
have to see what's going on, and nobody's going to
106
00:05:12.519 --> 00:05:14.800
play to the cameras in the Supreme Court, but I
107
00:05:14.800 --> 00:05:17.959
don't think they would in your typical case anyway. So
108
00:05:18.199 --> 00:05:21.040
I look forward to the day when that is the norm.
109
00:05:21.120 --> 00:05:23.839
My friend three out three someone three eight two five
110
00:05:23.920 --> 00:05:26.959
five text d A N five seven seven three nine,
111
00:05:28.120 --> 00:05:32.040
A couple of quick notes. Hugely important decision today from
112
00:05:32.079 --> 00:05:35.439
Scotus and that is unanimous. I believe Judge Brown, I
113
00:05:35.439 --> 00:05:39.319
think wrote the unanimous opinion. I've looked at the opinion,
114
00:05:39.639 --> 00:05:41.600
I perused it. I haven't read it the way I
115
00:05:41.600 --> 00:05:43.560
would for one of my cases, or to really talk
116
00:05:43.600 --> 00:05:46.000
with you about it in depth. But it's a tremendous
117
00:05:46.040 --> 00:05:49.279
opinion for the United States of America because we all
118
00:05:49.319 --> 00:05:52.680
know for this nation to be all that it was
119
00:05:52.720 --> 00:05:54.720
meant to be and all that it should be, we
120
00:05:54.839 --> 00:05:57.000
got to become color blind. I mean we've got to,
121
00:05:57.079 --> 00:05:59.839
and we're getting there. We're making huge strides. As much
122
00:05:59.879 --> 00:06:02.680
as some people try to create fake racial issues, there
123
00:06:02.720 --> 00:06:05.639
are still some real racial issues. But we got to
124
00:06:05.639 --> 00:06:10.639
become color blind. And so this idea that Okay, it's
125
00:06:10.680 --> 00:06:15.160
okay to discriminate against people of a particular race, but
126
00:06:15.279 --> 00:06:19.279
not against everybody else, it's insane, right, So these vestiges
127
00:06:19.279 --> 00:06:22.600
in the law that say it's okay to discriminate against
128
00:06:22.639 --> 00:06:25.720
people who happen to be white. That's insane. It goes
129
00:06:25.720 --> 00:06:29.160
against the whole idea we don't discriminate on race. And
130
00:06:29.199 --> 00:06:32.959
so another important decision along those lines today and a
131
00:06:33.040 --> 00:06:37.560
real simple case, right, you had this nice woman happened
132
00:06:37.560 --> 00:06:40.839
to be born white. She's working this job in Ohio,
133
00:06:41.560 --> 00:06:44.279
and then all of a sudden she doesn't get a
134
00:06:44.279 --> 00:06:48.120
promotion she apparently should get, and it goes to somebody
135
00:06:48.160 --> 00:06:50.439
I think in this example this case happened to be lesbian,
136
00:06:50.480 --> 00:06:53.079
I believe, and then all of a sudden she gets
137
00:06:53.079 --> 00:06:56.759
demoted and another person I think, maybe another lesbian I'll
138
00:06:56.759 --> 00:06:59.639
double check the case during a break gets the position
139
00:06:59.680 --> 00:07:04.079
over her, and she sues. And what happens is in
140
00:07:04.120 --> 00:07:06.360
the law in the sixth Circuit where Ohio is. There's
141
00:07:06.360 --> 00:07:08.480
some split in the circuits, which is how the Supremes
142
00:07:08.519 --> 00:07:11.319
got involved in the law in that circuit. If you're
143
00:07:11.360 --> 00:07:15.120
a white person suing for race discrimination until eight o'clock
144
00:07:15.160 --> 00:07:18.399
Mountain time today, you had to meet a higher standard
145
00:07:18.519 --> 00:07:21.319
to be able to bring your case than if you
146
00:07:21.360 --> 00:07:24.000
happen to be a person of color and of course,
147
00:07:24.000 --> 00:07:28.399
the Supreme Court said no, no, No, discrimination based on
148
00:07:28.519 --> 00:07:31.160
race is discrimination based on race. It doesn't matter what
149
00:07:31.240 --> 00:07:34.319
your race is, even if you're white. So very very
150
00:07:34.360 --> 00:07:36.879
good decision today for the United States, and so glad
151
00:07:36.879 --> 00:07:41.879
it was nine zip Boulder. We got to talk some Boulder,
152
00:07:41.879 --> 00:07:43.279
and I know we're going to talk about a lot
153
00:07:43.360 --> 00:07:47.639
of Musk, trumpetc. And you know there's some real damage
154
00:07:47.639 --> 00:07:49.199
being done at the moment. Is it part of a
155
00:07:49.199 --> 00:07:53.399
bigger play, But we've got to talk about Boulder because
156
00:07:54.120 --> 00:07:57.079
the reality is, and hopefully this will help open some
157
00:07:57.160 --> 00:08:01.040
eyes for these upcoming statewide races. Reality I think would
158
00:08:01.079 --> 00:08:06.439
really be stunning to your typical Colorado Democrat Republican are unaffiliated,
159
00:08:06.839 --> 00:08:09.759
who I'm sure has no clue because they have real
160
00:08:09.839 --> 00:08:12.920
lives that we've got a Democrat party and governor in
161
00:08:12.959 --> 00:08:15.680
Colorado so out of control that they are actually and
162
00:08:16.000 --> 00:08:20.639
this is provably true, they are out there actively recruiting
163
00:08:22.240 --> 00:08:26.439
illegal immigrants to come to Colorado, actively recruiting them to
164
00:08:26.519 --> 00:08:30.160
come to Colorado through the laws they're passing, and they know,
165
00:08:31.279 --> 00:08:35.159
they know for a fact that among the illegals they
166
00:08:35.200 --> 00:08:38.600
are recruiting to Colorado are going to be rapists, are
167
00:08:38.679 --> 00:08:41.799
going to be murderers along with the otherwise good people.
168
00:08:42.120 --> 00:08:45.639
They know that. Now, that doesn't mean they recruited this
169
00:08:45.759 --> 00:08:47.679
terrorist that they went out and said, oh, do you
170
00:08:47.679 --> 00:08:50.039
see this guy from Egypt and he's over stated his
171
00:08:50.159 --> 00:08:53.120
visa and we know that he wants to go and
172
00:08:53.159 --> 00:08:56.000
he wants to burn alive as many Jewish people as
173
00:08:56.000 --> 00:08:57.960
he can. No, they didn't go out and say, hey,
174
00:08:58.120 --> 00:09:01.679
let's recruit that guy here. But they knew when they
175
00:09:01.720 --> 00:09:04.440
passed these laws, including come here, we'll give you a
176
00:09:04.519 --> 00:09:08.279
driver's license right away, right away as an illegal immigrant,
177
00:09:08.320 --> 00:09:10.960
and the other things they've done to recruit they knew
178
00:09:11.679 --> 00:09:15.320
that there would be rapist, murderers and a good chance
179
00:09:15.480 --> 00:09:19.120
some terrorists among the otherwise good people who came. And
180
00:09:19.159 --> 00:09:23.799
they did it anyway. That is one of the most immoral,
181
00:09:24.759 --> 00:09:28.240
one of the sickest, one of the most obscene things
182
00:09:28.279 --> 00:09:31.919
that any public official, any elected official, any political party
183
00:09:31.919 --> 00:09:36.759
could do. But they did it anyway, knowing you would
184
00:09:36.759 --> 00:09:39.799
have Coloraden's who would be raped, you'd have Colorado's who
185
00:09:39.840 --> 00:09:43.440
would be murdered, and a real chance there'd be a
186
00:09:43.519 --> 00:09:47.320
terrorism here, knowing that would be the result of their policy.
187
00:09:47.399 --> 00:09:51.519
Yet they recruited illegals here anyway they went. Think about
188
00:09:51.559 --> 00:09:55.279
how far out of their way they went to waive
189
00:09:55.360 --> 00:09:58.840
the banner and say to illegals, come to Colorado, will
190
00:09:58.919 --> 00:10:02.639
protect you, will welcome you, will help you. They're going
191
00:10:02.720 --> 00:10:05.679
to give you driver's licenses day one, and you can
192
00:10:05.799 --> 00:10:09.320
use a nine year old I d yeah, that's how
193
00:10:09.360 --> 00:10:11.440
sick it is. So will it open enough eyes for
194
00:10:11.519 --> 00:10:15.320
this electoral cycle? I guess we'll find out together. But
195
00:10:15.399 --> 00:10:18.480
it does lead to the question why do you think
196
00:10:18.480 --> 00:10:21.120
they do it? And again my point the fix. I
197
00:10:21.240 --> 00:10:23.799
just call it the capitalists proposal, but it's really not.
198
00:10:23.879 --> 00:10:28.759
Others had the idea before you pass the law that says,
199
00:10:28.759 --> 00:10:32.200
all of a sudden, the victims of sanctuary state and
200
00:10:32.279 --> 00:10:36.200
sanctuary city can sue those governmental entities. Sanctuary state and
201
00:10:36.279 --> 00:10:40.480
sanctuary city end today. They absolutely end today. Pass that law.
202
00:10:40.720 --> 00:10:42.279
You're on the Dan Caplis Show.
203
00:10:48.720 --> 00:10:51.120
And now back to the Dan capless Show podcast.
204
00:10:52.080 --> 00:10:52.879
Big of this bill.
205
00:10:53.000 --> 00:10:55.759
He know it better than almost anybody, and he never
206
00:10:55.759 --> 00:10:58.559
had a problem until right after you left head of
207
00:10:58.600 --> 00:11:00.720
you saw these samens you made about me, which I'm
208
00:11:00.759 --> 00:11:01.720
sure you can get for age.
209
00:11:01.799 --> 00:11:06.159
It's very fresh Ponte. He said the most beautiful.
210
00:11:05.720 --> 00:11:08.440
Things about and he hasn't said bad about me personally,
211
00:11:08.519 --> 00:11:09.639
but I'm sure that'll be next.
212
00:11:10.240 --> 00:11:12.840
But I'm I'm very disappointed in Ala and I've helped
213
00:11:12.879 --> 00:11:13.600
a lot, a lot.
214
00:11:14.039 --> 00:11:15.840
Yeah, So what do you think? Way, what do you
215
00:11:15.840 --> 00:11:18.759
think about this public battle? Who's right, who's wrong? Is
216
00:11:18.799 --> 00:11:23.000
it staged? Is this for d chess? And how does
217
00:11:23.039 --> 00:11:26.120
it end? How much damage to the GOP or does
218
00:11:26.159 --> 00:11:28.720
it end up being a plus for the GOP? Three
219
00:11:28.720 --> 00:11:30.799
oh three seven one three eight two five five the
220
00:11:30.879 --> 00:11:34.600
number text d A N five seven seven three nine.
221
00:11:34.600 --> 00:11:36.159
So if you just joined us, thank you. Were talking
222
00:11:36.200 --> 00:11:39.440
about the big US Supreme Court opinion today standing for
223
00:11:39.480 --> 00:11:42.919
the important principle that you cannot discriminate on race, even
224
00:11:42.960 --> 00:11:47.679
if it's a white person, very important for America, for
225
00:11:47.720 --> 00:11:51.919
all people in America, regardless of race, And talking about
226
00:11:51.919 --> 00:11:54.480
how once again this horror and boulder we saw over
227
00:11:54.519 --> 00:11:57.000
the weekend is just a much and a horrific, much
228
00:11:57.039 --> 00:12:00.799
more visible example of horrors going none all over the
229
00:12:00.840 --> 00:12:04.360
state of Colorado because Jared Polis and the Democrats are
230
00:12:04.519 --> 00:12:09.120
actively recruiting illegal immigrants to come to Colorado knowing that
231
00:12:09.200 --> 00:12:12.440
among those who are otherwise good people, there will be rapists,
232
00:12:12.480 --> 00:12:15.039
there will be murderers. Good chances there will be terrorists,
233
00:12:15.080 --> 00:12:19.360
yet they still recruit them in large numbers. So hopefully
234
00:12:19.440 --> 00:12:22.799
the voter's eyes are opened. I wish that that horror
235
00:12:22.879 --> 00:12:27.960
had never happened in Boulder. But again, when they're actively
236
00:12:28.039 --> 00:12:32.000
recruiting illegals to come to Colorado knowing among those are
237
00:12:32.000 --> 00:12:36.039
going to be some murderers, rapists, et cetera, think about
238
00:12:36.039 --> 00:12:39.200
the mentality they know. They know they are going to
239
00:12:39.200 --> 00:12:41.240
be horrors like this, not the exact form, but they
240
00:12:41.240 --> 00:12:43.120
know they are going to be horrors like this, and
241
00:12:43.200 --> 00:12:45.559
polists and the rest of the Democrats they bring it on.
242
00:12:46.039 --> 00:12:49.399
It is an acceptable casualty rate to them because they
243
00:12:49.440 --> 00:12:52.519
know they're not going to be the casualties, and nobody
244
00:12:52.600 --> 00:12:56.480
should be the casualties. Three or three someone three eight, two, five,
245
00:12:56.720 --> 00:12:59.879
five the numbers. So what do you think of the
246
00:13:00.600 --> 00:13:03.519
trump elon Musk thing that's going on. Are you with
247
00:13:03.600 --> 00:13:05.720
that crew that says, hey, you know that they've got
248
00:13:05.720 --> 00:13:07.879
a plan here, this is all going to work out.
249
00:13:08.039 --> 00:13:11.000
Or is this thing just spinning out of control and
250
00:13:11.320 --> 00:13:14.519
like a tornado, doing a lot of damage along the way,
251
00:13:14.639 --> 00:13:18.519
some of which may not be repairable. Let's get a
252
00:13:18.519 --> 00:13:20.679
little more President Trump on Elon.
253
00:13:22.159 --> 00:13:25.960
But I'm very disappointed because Elon knew the inner workings
254
00:13:26.000 --> 00:13:29.159
of this bill better than almost anybody sitting.
255
00:13:28.840 --> 00:13:31.639
Here, better than you people. He knew everything about it.
256
00:13:31.679 --> 00:13:33.279
He had no problem with it. All of a sudden
257
00:13:33.279 --> 00:13:34.120
he had a problem.
258
00:13:34.320 --> 00:13:36.480
And he only developed the problem when you found out
259
00:13:36.519 --> 00:13:38.159
that we're going to have to cut the ev mento,
260
00:13:38.279 --> 00:13:41.039
because that's bigions and billions of dollars.
261
00:13:41.000 --> 00:13:43.919
And it really is unfair. We want to have cars
262
00:13:43.960 --> 00:13:46.039
of all types electric. We want to have electric, but
263
00:13:46.080 --> 00:13:46.799
we want to have.
264
00:13:47.080 --> 00:13:51.480
A gasoline combustion, we want to have different we want
265
00:13:51.480 --> 00:13:52.720
to have hybrids.
266
00:13:52.240 --> 00:13:54.000
We want to have all We want to be able
267
00:13:54.000 --> 00:13:54.759
to sell everything.
268
00:13:55.440 --> 00:14:01.840
And where that was cut and Congress wanted to cut it.
269
00:14:00.200 --> 00:14:02.720
It became a little bit different. And I can understand that.
270
00:14:04.320 --> 00:14:06.679
Yeah, So I mean, just to get your take on that,
271
00:14:07.279 --> 00:14:10.759
I think it's unhealthy right now. I think it's unhealthy
272
00:14:10.840 --> 00:14:14.759
for the GOP. I think it's unhealthy for all of
273
00:14:14.840 --> 00:14:18.519
us who have Tesla in our for one case, right though,
274
00:14:19.159 --> 00:14:21.919
if I give you a stock tip to the exact opposite,
275
00:14:21.960 --> 00:14:24.759
that's the only thing that makes any sense. But I'm
276
00:14:24.759 --> 00:14:26.799
probably ryan. I'm probably going to go out and buy
277
00:14:26.840 --> 00:14:29.519
some more Tesla, you know, because I think it was
278
00:14:29.559 --> 00:14:32.799
down what fourteen percent today? Oh well, yeah, it's yeah,
279
00:14:33.360 --> 00:14:35.240
And I know it's a volatile stock, but it's been
280
00:14:35.320 --> 00:14:36.919
very good to me over the years, and I expect
281
00:14:36.960 --> 00:14:39.240
it's going to be very good continuing into the future,
282
00:14:39.679 --> 00:14:41.799
you know, in a large part because of Elon Musk.
283
00:14:42.080 --> 00:14:47.039
And but here's the thing, why is this all really happening? Mile?
284
00:14:47.279 --> 00:14:51.320
The best take I have on this is that Elon Musk,
285
00:14:51.600 --> 00:14:55.039
for his own business maybe even personal reasons, right now,
286
00:14:55.399 --> 00:14:59.320
he needs separation from President Trump. I wish it wasn't happening.
287
00:14:59.679 --> 00:15:01.960
I think he was very helpful to getting Trump elected.
288
00:15:02.000 --> 00:15:04.559
We'll talk separately about whether you think Trump would have
289
00:15:04.600 --> 00:15:08.080
been elected without him, but he was very helpful. He
290
00:15:08.159 --> 00:15:11.879
can be very very helpful to GOP candidates across the country.
291
00:15:12.519 --> 00:15:15.200
And so, yeah, you hate to see this, but personally
292
00:15:15.240 --> 00:15:19.120
and from a business standpoint, he probably feels as if
293
00:15:19.120 --> 00:15:22.200
he needs a dramatic separation from President Trump. And I
294
00:15:22.200 --> 00:15:26.080
think that's what's going on right now, and that's what's
295
00:15:26.200 --> 00:15:30.600
playing out. And whether this is kind of All Star
296
00:15:30.679 --> 00:15:33.240
Wrestling where they've kind of gotten together and figured out
297
00:15:33.279 --> 00:15:34.960
how they're going to throw barbs at each other, or
298
00:15:34.960 --> 00:15:37.960
whether this is all just genuine and spontaneous. I think
299
00:15:38.039 --> 00:15:42.799
Elon Musk's goal is to get clear, obvious public separation
300
00:15:42.919 --> 00:15:45.000
from President Trump, and the only way he can do
301
00:15:45.159 --> 00:15:48.360
that is through some sort of really ugly spot.
302
00:15:49.039 --> 00:15:51.519
This is a tantrum, though Dan I did not see
303
00:15:51.519 --> 00:15:54.679
this coming, and I think the thing that separates it
304
00:15:54.720 --> 00:15:57.879
from me from possibly being what in pro wrestling is
305
00:15:57.919 --> 00:16:01.080
called k fabe, meaning that the fall pretense of a
306
00:16:01.080 --> 00:16:05.360
few used to drive heat and viewers, et cetera. Is
307
00:16:06.000 --> 00:16:09.279
this bombshelly drops that the reason the Epstein files and
308
00:16:09.320 --> 00:16:11.600
logs have not been released is because Trump's in them.
309
00:16:11.799 --> 00:16:13.960
I mean, you don't go there. I think that's a
310
00:16:13.960 --> 00:16:15.559
bridge too far. And I think as a line he
311
00:16:15.639 --> 00:16:18.480
crosses that you cannot uncross the bellow, that you cannot unring.
312
00:16:19.720 --> 00:16:22.919
It's a great point. Yeah, that's a great point. So
313
00:16:23.039 --> 00:16:26.559
at this point it might just be what it appears
314
00:16:26.559 --> 00:16:29.279
on the surface to be. Right now, Listen, I still
315
00:16:29.320 --> 00:16:31.320
think the starting point for all of this right because
316
00:16:31.360 --> 00:16:34.879
it started somewhere. The starting point I think is Musk
317
00:16:35.279 --> 00:16:39.080
felt he needed separation from Trump. He needed it for Tesla.
318
00:16:39.120 --> 00:16:42.159
In his mind, he needed it for other reasons, probably
319
00:16:42.159 --> 00:16:44.960
personal as well. But yeah, you're right when it goes
320
00:16:45.000 --> 00:16:49.279
to that point. Yeah, hard to come back from that,
321
00:16:49.519 --> 00:16:52.360
and I expect we'll get a Trump response to that
322
00:16:52.480 --> 00:16:57.480
as well. I don't believe for one second, not one second,
323
00:16:58.120 --> 00:17:00.519
that Trump is in the Epstein files any kind of
324
00:17:00.600 --> 00:17:03.600
negative way. You know why, Ryan, Come on, we all
325
00:17:03.639 --> 00:17:06.200
know it. If he was, yep, we would have known
326
00:17:06.200 --> 00:17:10.799
it during the twenty sixteen campaign, twenty twenty campaign, the
327
00:17:10.799 --> 00:17:12.799
twenty twenty four campaign. It would have been front and
328
00:17:12.799 --> 00:17:16.799
center because who controlled the Epstein files the Biden administration.
329
00:17:17.440 --> 00:17:20.039
That's exactly what I thought. Yeah, so I don't buy
330
00:17:20.079 --> 00:17:24.119
that now. Listen, I don't doubt that somewhere it mentions Trump,
331
00:17:24.160 --> 00:17:27.839
but not in any sort of inappropriate or sinister way.
332
00:17:28.480 --> 00:17:30.799
You know my understanding. Right, The mention of Trump, I think,
333
00:17:30.960 --> 00:17:34.680
was that Trump had been informed by mar A Lago
334
00:17:34.759 --> 00:17:38.119
employee that Epstein had been doing something inappropriate, and Trump
335
00:17:38.160 --> 00:17:40.319
banned him from the property. So yeah, Trump's name may
336
00:17:40.359 --> 00:17:46.559
show up in there, but hey, speaking of that, George Clooney,
337
00:17:47.200 --> 00:17:49.240
you know a broken clock. You know what they say,
338
00:17:49.319 --> 00:17:54.279
right twice a day? Is George Clooney actually write about this.
339
00:17:56.039 --> 00:18:01.480
Do you think Trump is a last beyond this term.
340
00:18:01.559 --> 00:18:03.480
I don't think so. I think it'd be very hard
341
00:18:03.480 --> 00:18:06.759
to do it. Remember this land. Trump is a celebrity,
342
00:18:07.160 --> 00:18:07.839
that's what he is.
343
00:18:07.920 --> 00:18:10.200
I mean, he's got a he has a star in
344
00:18:10.240 --> 00:18:12.640
Hollywood Boulevard. I don't have a star in Hollywood Bulevard.
345
00:18:13.119 --> 00:18:16.119
I'm not lobbying for one. I'm just saying, you know,
346
00:18:16.160 --> 00:18:17.160
it seems like an oversight.
347
00:18:17.200 --> 00:18:18.599
By the way, what's going on.
348
00:18:19.720 --> 00:18:22.920
He's a celebrity, and he's the President of the United States,
349
00:18:22.920 --> 00:18:25.880
and so he has been elected, duly elected, fair deal.
350
00:18:25.920 --> 00:18:28.319
I'm not complaining about that. That's how it works. That's
351
00:18:28.599 --> 00:18:32.160
how this democracy works. But he's also a celebrity, and
352
00:18:32.200 --> 00:18:34.960
he is charming, and to the people who like him,
353
00:18:35.240 --> 00:18:38.000
they think he's funny, too great.
354
00:18:38.039 --> 00:18:39.480
Many others they don't.
355
00:18:39.720 --> 00:18:43.000
And so when he is finished, and he will be finished,
356
00:18:43.079 --> 00:18:45.640
they're going to have to go looking for someone who
357
00:18:45.680 --> 00:18:49.640
can deliver the message that he delivered with the same
358
00:18:49.720 --> 00:18:51.240
kind of charisma, and they don't have.
359
00:18:51.319 --> 00:18:55.279
That is clooney, actually right about that. You're on the
360
00:18:55.359 --> 00:18:56.160
Dan Capla ship.
361
00:19:02.720 --> 00:19:05.160
You're listening to the Dan Kaplis Show podcast.
362
00:19:06.839 --> 00:19:11.160
President Trump elon Musk all out Ryan's right. Once Elon
363
00:19:11.240 --> 00:19:14.519
crosses that line into Epstein file saying Trump won't release
364
00:19:14.599 --> 00:19:17.160
him because he's in them, then yeah, I think you
365
00:19:17.200 --> 00:19:20.680
can be pretty sure this is a genuine bad blood.
366
00:19:20.799 --> 00:19:23.680
So how does it end? Where does it end? I
367
00:19:23.720 --> 00:19:27.279
think it's inevitable it ends with some kind of reconciliation,
368
00:19:27.359 --> 00:19:29.599
which may be behind the scenes because of my theories.
369
00:19:29.680 --> 00:19:32.119
Right at the starting point for all of this is
370
00:19:32.160 --> 00:19:37.079
Elon Musk decided he needed a very public, credible and
371
00:19:37.119 --> 00:19:40.440
I put that in quote separation from President Trump, maybe
372
00:19:40.440 --> 00:19:43.279
for his business, personal, both whatever he needed it, and
373
00:19:43.319 --> 00:19:48.039
I think that's what generated this and maybe the obviously
374
00:19:48.319 --> 00:19:52.920
false Epstein allegation, though maybe technically true because Trump's probably
375
00:19:52.960 --> 00:19:55.079
mentioned in there in some positive sense, like he told
376
00:19:55.119 --> 00:19:59.240
Epstein to take a hike. Yeah, it is designed to
377
00:19:59.799 --> 00:20:05.359
help convince others that that, yeah, Musk has separated from Trump.
378
00:20:05.599 --> 00:20:08.039
So I think that's what drove all this. How much
379
00:20:08.119 --> 00:20:10.839
damage to the GOP, I think it could be considerable,
380
00:20:10.880 --> 00:20:14.359
because I do think Musk was very important and getting
381
00:20:14.359 --> 00:20:16.640
the president reelected. I don't think any of us will
382
00:20:16.640 --> 00:20:20.160
ever be able to say definitively whether President Trump gets
383
00:20:20.200 --> 00:20:24.200
elected or not without Musk's money, though I would love
384
00:20:24.240 --> 00:20:27.559
your take on that. I think he probably does, but
385
00:20:27.680 --> 00:20:30.400
I think it's a lot closer, and I think that
386
00:20:30.519 --> 00:20:33.759
Elon Musk was in a position to be such a
387
00:20:33.920 --> 00:20:37.880
game changer, such a field lever, a leveler for GOP
388
00:20:38.119 --> 00:20:42.640
candidates nationwide. That it's another reason I'm sad to see this,
389
00:20:42.799 --> 00:20:45.319
so love, you're taking that much more to talk about. Obviously,
390
00:20:45.359 --> 00:20:48.359
we're talking about the horror in Boulder and the blood
391
00:20:48.400 --> 00:20:52.160
on the hands of the Democratic Party in Colorado and
392
00:20:52.200 --> 00:20:54.759
the governor. And you know, I don't use that phrase lightly,
393
00:20:54.839 --> 00:20:57.599
but I use it here because it's true. And it's
394
00:20:57.799 --> 00:21:02.200
not only this whole or in Boulder, but it's across
395
00:21:02.240 --> 00:21:04.559
the state, in lots of cases that we never even
396
00:21:04.599 --> 00:21:07.720
hear about or see in the news, where somebody's raped
397
00:21:07.759 --> 00:21:11.759
by somebody here illegally, somebody's murdered by somebody here illegally.
398
00:21:12.119 --> 00:21:14.440
And again, you know, it doesn't mean that everybody coming
399
00:21:14.440 --> 00:21:17.599
here illegally are rapists and murderers. They're not. It's a
400
00:21:17.640 --> 00:21:20.839
small percentage who are, but any percentage is too high
401
00:21:20.880 --> 00:21:23.960
a percentage. And that's the point is that Polis and
402
00:21:23.960 --> 00:21:27.160
the Democrats know when they're out actively recruiting, and that's
403
00:21:27.200 --> 00:21:30.599
what they're doing with these laws, waving the banner, actively
404
00:21:30.640 --> 00:21:34.240
recruiting people here illegally to come to Colorado that there's
405
00:21:34.279 --> 00:21:36.640
going to be a certain percentage of a rapist. They
406
00:21:36.680 --> 00:21:40.240
know when they pass these laws that it will lead
407
00:21:40.319 --> 00:21:44.079
to Colorado women being raped, it will lead to Colorado
408
00:21:44.119 --> 00:21:47.880
people being murdered, It'll be lead to Colorado people being
409
00:21:47.960 --> 00:21:52.440
unnecessarily slaughtered on the roadways. They know it may lead
410
00:21:52.480 --> 00:21:55.920
to terrorism, and they do it anyway, all for their
411
00:21:55.920 --> 00:22:00.559
own political gain. I mean that not every political difference
412
00:22:00.640 --> 00:22:04.440
is a moral difference. This is profoundly immoral what they've
413
00:22:04.440 --> 00:22:08.920
been doing because they know the price of the political
414
00:22:08.960 --> 00:22:12.799
benefit they get from attracting illegals to Colorado is going
415
00:22:12.880 --> 00:22:16.960
to be real, live innocent people raped, murdered in this case,
416
00:22:17.000 --> 00:22:20.720
set on fire, and they recruit anyway. Okay, you think
417
00:22:20.759 --> 00:22:23.160
ran is They're going to come a point is something
418
00:22:23.240 --> 00:22:26.200
like this horror Boulder at tipping point where voters' eyes
419
00:22:26.240 --> 00:22:29.799
get opened and they say, no, no, we can't do
420
00:22:29.880 --> 00:22:31.920
this anymore. Even if I don't like the Republicans, we
421
00:22:31.960 --> 00:22:33.079
can't do this anymore.
422
00:22:33.119 --> 00:22:36.599
Well, and thanks for teeing up that segue potentially for
423
00:22:36.720 --> 00:22:39.359
me here. But you gotta hear the words of film
424
00:22:39.400 --> 00:22:42.079
none the Wiser on CNN with John Berman on this
425
00:22:42.200 --> 00:22:42.799
very issue.
426
00:22:42.839 --> 00:22:45.079
It will knock your socks off, and not in a
427
00:22:45.119 --> 00:22:45.519
good way.
428
00:22:45.720 --> 00:22:49.039
Yeah, yeah, and you know, fascinating. I'm glad you flagged
429
00:22:49.079 --> 00:22:53.519
that sound this morning because Wiser, now, if he's serious
430
00:22:53.559 --> 00:22:55.240
about trying to compete in the governor's race, and I
431
00:22:55.279 --> 00:22:58.759
don't think he is. I think he's just positioning to
432
00:22:58.799 --> 00:23:01.799
try to have enough leverage to get Bennett's Senate seat
433
00:23:01.839 --> 00:23:04.920
from Bennett when they all assume Bennett wins the governor's race.
434
00:23:05.400 --> 00:23:08.000
Seems like some chicken countant to me. But yeah, here's
435
00:23:08.039 --> 00:23:11.200
what Wiser had to say in part. Let me first
436
00:23:11.240 --> 00:23:14.880
ask you about that federal decision to detain the family
437
00:23:15.240 --> 00:23:18.920
and apparently very shortly to remove them from the United States.
438
00:23:18.960 --> 00:23:20.000
What is your view of that.
439
00:23:20.799 --> 00:23:23.559
My view is it's critical that our immigration system work
440
00:23:23.720 --> 00:23:27.240
under the rule of law, according everyone due process of law.
441
00:23:27.759 --> 00:23:33.000
Expedite and removal is a rare, but it's a constitutional procedure.
442
00:23:33.799 --> 00:23:37.440
The critical fact of our immigration system is we have
443
00:23:37.799 --> 00:23:40.559
a backlog of over a million people who've gone through
444
00:23:40.599 --> 00:23:44.759
procedures like this who haven't yet actually been deported. That's
445
00:23:44.799 --> 00:23:47.200
where our focus should be when we talk about immigration.
446
00:23:47.440 --> 00:23:51.519
Well, what the hell's he talking about? He acknowledges expedited
447
00:23:51.680 --> 00:23:55.559
is constitutional. How can you ever get a more obvious
448
00:23:55.640 --> 00:24:00.880
need for expedited than the family of a terrorist, who
449
00:24:00.920 --> 00:24:03.079
in the right mind would want to leave mare. First,
450
00:24:03.079 --> 00:24:06.960
they're here illegally, they shouldn't be here. And how in
451
00:24:07.000 --> 00:24:08.279
the world, and we got to get to the bottom
452
00:24:08.319 --> 00:24:10.920
of this, how in the world did the Polish slash
453
00:24:10.920 --> 00:24:14.720
Biden administrations leave him here after he legally tried to
454
00:24:14.720 --> 00:24:17.599
buy a gun? I thought that was their holy grail. Right,
455
00:24:17.599 --> 00:24:19.920
we have to have all these kids unnecessarily slaughtered in
456
00:24:20.000 --> 00:24:27.359
schools because the Democrats. The Democrats hate people with the gun,
457
00:24:27.480 --> 00:24:29.440
good guys and girls with the gun, more than they
458
00:24:29.440 --> 00:24:31.599
love children. So we can't have good guys and girls
459
00:24:31.599 --> 00:24:35.079
with guns in schools protecting the kids from mass shooters
460
00:24:35.240 --> 00:24:39.279
because Democrats hate guns above all. But they're going to
461
00:24:39.400 --> 00:24:43.279
let illegal immigrants have guns. How was he allowed to stay?
462
00:24:43.319 --> 00:24:43.480
Then?
463
00:24:43.599 --> 00:24:46.079
Some more wiser here by the way, that first answer,
464
00:24:46.519 --> 00:24:49.079
I think a very not ready for prime time kind
465
00:24:49.079 --> 00:24:51.440
of answered. And you would support that removal if it
466
00:24:51.480 --> 00:24:52.799
goes forward under due process.
467
00:24:53.599 --> 00:24:56.039
The important part about your process is if someone has
468
00:24:56.079 --> 00:24:59.880
a basis to stay here, they have a legitimate claim
469
00:25:00.119 --> 00:25:03.839
for asylum, that's a threatened that's going to get evaluated
470
00:25:03.960 --> 00:25:07.480
by an independent fact finder. And that's how our immigration
471
00:25:07.519 --> 00:25:09.880
system should work. If you work based on the facts,
472
00:25:09.920 --> 00:25:13.000
based on the law, it shouldn't be targeting people in
473
00:25:13.039 --> 00:25:15.839
ways that are hap hazard, in ways that deny you process,
474
00:25:16.119 --> 00:25:18.680
or in ways that are based on fear, not based
475
00:25:18.720 --> 00:25:19.119
on fact.
476
00:25:19.200 --> 00:25:21.920
How can anybody with a straight face try to make
477
00:25:21.920 --> 00:25:24.720
that argument. Wait a second, The father and the family
478
00:25:25.400 --> 00:25:29.480
just went up to Boulder to mass murder people. You
479
00:25:29.880 --> 00:25:32.400
know that is a family which has had a terrorist
480
00:25:32.559 --> 00:25:34.240
in the middle of the family as the head of
481
00:25:34.279 --> 00:25:38.240
the household. What sane person could argue for a second
482
00:25:38.319 --> 00:25:40.880
that that family should be allowed to stay. Are you
483
00:25:40.920 --> 00:25:43.240
saying this is hap hazard or based on fear.
484
00:25:44.240 --> 00:25:47.039
This is a procedure that's been used before, an expot
485
00:25:47.039 --> 00:25:50.960
at a procedure, And the point is they may have
486
00:25:51.119 --> 00:25:53.839
a claim for asylum, they may not. That'll get decided
487
00:25:53.880 --> 00:25:57.559
by the data process, and that's how it should work.
488
00:25:57.680 --> 00:26:00.000
You know what that tells you that there's real hope
489
00:26:00.039 --> 00:26:02.440
for the GOP in Colorado. Not because he's going to
490
00:26:02.480 --> 00:26:05.839
be the DEM nominee he's not right, but because it
491
00:26:06.000 --> 00:26:10.559
shows you how in the grip of the psycho crazy
492
00:26:10.759 --> 00:26:14.880
far left radicals with big money, the Colorado Democratic Party
493
00:26:14.920 --> 00:26:18.759
is including our own attorney general because really, I mean,
494
00:26:18.799 --> 00:26:21.720
this guy clerk for US Supreme Court justices. He can't
495
00:26:21.759 --> 00:26:25.880
possibly believe what he's saying, but he's got to appeal
496
00:26:25.920 --> 00:26:29.759
to that crazy fringe far left that controls the party here,
497
00:26:31.200 --> 00:26:33.640
so he's willing to say that stuff. You know, it
498
00:26:33.720 --> 00:26:37.319
creates a much more dangerous state. But the silver lining
499
00:26:37.440 --> 00:26:41.200
is it gives the GOP and opening here Wow three

502
00:26:47.279 --> 00:26:49.599
the end, be very interesting to see, Ryan. And there
503
00:26:49.599 --> 00:26:51.480
may have been some late breaking news on that I'm
504
00:26:51.480 --> 00:26:54.519
getting ready for my next job, but I haven't seen
505
00:26:54.559 --> 00:26:59.160
any anything definitive yet on who was it? Who was
506
00:26:59.160 --> 00:27:04.720
it who found out that this illegal immigrant tried to
507
00:27:04.720 --> 00:27:07.759
buy a gun and then didn't act on it? Is
508
00:27:07.839 --> 00:27:11.920
that Polis's Colorado government or did they act on it
509
00:27:11.960 --> 00:27:14.079
and then Biden decided to give him a pass the
510
00:27:14.079 --> 00:27:15.119
Biden administration?
511
00:27:15.279 --> 00:27:15.920
Or is it both.
512
00:27:17.519 --> 00:27:19.920
But we have got to get to the bottom of that.
513
00:27:20.240 --> 00:27:22.640
So let me get back to this Clooney thing for
514
00:27:22.799 --> 00:27:25.720
a minute. If you just joined us, Thank you, George
515
00:27:25.720 --> 00:27:30.440
Clooney obviously wrong about so much, and thank goodness because
516
00:27:30.480 --> 00:27:37.519
he helped Democrats lose. But this business about whether trump Ism,
517
00:27:37.680 --> 00:27:41.319
as he calls it, will last beyond this first term?
518
00:27:41.359 --> 00:27:46.200
Is he right about that? Do you think trump Ism
519
00:27:46.559 --> 00:27:48.359
lasts beyond this term?
520
00:27:48.599 --> 00:27:50.480
Don't think so. I think it'd be very hard to
521
00:27:50.480 --> 00:27:54.279
do it. Remember this, dol Trump is a celebrity, That's what.
522
00:27:54.440 --> 00:27:56.519
And then he goes on with his garbage choice. Second,
523
00:27:56.880 --> 00:27:58.359
how you could say the same thing about Reagan He
524
00:27:58.440 --> 00:28:00.079
ended up being one of the best US president and
525
00:28:00.079 --> 00:28:03.680
says Trump has been. But is he right? And I
526
00:28:03.720 --> 00:28:05.279
do want to launch on that when we come back,
527
00:28:05.319 --> 00:28:07.640
because I have some very strong feelings on this. I
528
00:28:07.680 --> 00:28:10.960
think the GOP, while in a very good position in
529
00:28:11.000 --> 00:28:15.240
some ways, is in very very dangerous territory in others,
530
00:28:16.000 --> 00:28:19.759
because I think there's a real danger that what Clooney
531
00:28:19.839 --> 00:28:23.319
is saying in this one case broken clocks right twice
532
00:28:23.319 --> 00:28:25.440
a day in this one case, he may well be
533
00:28:25.519 --> 00:28:27.079
right here In the Dankapla show.
534
00:28:33.759 --> 00:28:36.160
And now back to the Dan Kaplas Show podcast.
535
00:28:37.440 --> 00:28:40.440
And he never had a problem until right after you left.
536
00:28:40.480 --> 00:28:42.440
How have you saw these savans he made about me,
537
00:28:42.519 --> 00:28:44.640
which I'm sure you can get very it's very fresh.
538
00:28:46.680 --> 00:28:48.279
He said the most beautiful.
539
00:28:47.880 --> 00:28:50.599
Things about me, and he hasn't said bad about me personally,
540
00:28:50.640 --> 00:28:51.759
but I'm sure that'll be next.
541
00:28:52.359 --> 00:28:55.079
But I'm very disappointed. In a lot. I've helped you
542
00:28:55.079 --> 00:28:55.720
a lot, a lot.
543
00:28:55.880 --> 00:28:59.759
Yeah, it's gotten personal, that's for sure. Playing the Epstein
544
00:29:00.160 --> 00:29:03.519
art saying that that's why Trump won't release the Epstein files,
545
00:29:03.559 --> 00:29:07.119
because he's in them. And then we have a texter
546
00:29:07.279 --> 00:29:09.920
who says, Elon Mosk better hope that Donald Trump is
547
00:29:09.920 --> 00:29:12.359
in the Epstein filess or he's going to owe Donald
548
00:29:12.359 --> 00:29:13.960
Trump a lot of money.
549
00:29:14.240 --> 00:29:14.400
Was in.
550
00:29:14.519 --> 00:29:16.559
Musk is a smart guy. So this we know, right,
551
00:29:16.839 --> 00:29:21.039
We know two things for sure. One is that Trump
552
00:29:21.079 --> 00:29:24.640
did nothing wrong when it comes to Epstein. We know
553
00:29:24.720 --> 00:29:27.319
that to one hundred percent certainty because if he had
554
00:29:27.400 --> 00:29:30.279
we know it already, right who controlled the Epstein files,
555
00:29:30.440 --> 00:29:34.640
right the Biden administration. So yeah, we know that Trump
556
00:29:34.680 --> 00:29:37.200
did not do anything wrong when it came to Epstein.
557
00:29:37.480 --> 00:29:39.839
But his name probably does appear in the files in
558
00:29:39.880 --> 00:29:43.880
another context, such as when he told banned Epstein from
559
00:29:43.920 --> 00:29:46.640
mar A Lago because I think it was somebody in
560
00:29:46.680 --> 00:29:49.559
the spot said Epstein was acting inappropriate at least. So yes,
561
00:29:50.039 --> 00:29:53.960
uh Musk is protected because Trump is mentioned, but mentioned
562
00:29:53.960 --> 00:29:56.000
in a positive way. Is the way I believe all
563
00:29:56.039 --> 00:29:58.160
that's going to play out. Glad you're here. Three or
564
00:29:58.160 --> 00:30:01.519
three seOne, three, eight, two, five five the number A
565
00:30:01.599 --> 00:30:04.759
text or dan George Clooney is wrong. Little Marco can
566
00:30:04.799 --> 00:30:09.640
deliver the message, so can J. D. Carolyn Love it
567
00:30:09.680 --> 00:30:12.640
as well. And what we're talking about is George Clooney,
568
00:30:12.640 --> 00:30:15.599
who's wrong about virtually everything, maybe right about this when
569
00:30:15.599 --> 00:30:19.880
he says trump Ism will not last past the end
570
00:30:19.880 --> 00:30:23.759
of this term. I think this is a grave danger
571
00:30:23.920 --> 00:30:29.720
of enormous magnitude to the GOP everywhere in America because
572
00:30:30.039 --> 00:30:33.279
so many of these voters in twenty twenty four, just
573
00:30:33.279 --> 00:30:36.000
like sixteen, right, but twenty twenty four, so many of
574
00:30:36.039 --> 00:30:39.559
these voters were not Republican voters. They're Trump voters. We've
575
00:30:39.559 --> 00:30:42.799
been talking about it since election Day, and there is
576
00:30:42.839 --> 00:30:46.759
a grave danger that the GOP is not going to
577
00:30:46.799 --> 00:30:49.119
be able to hold on to enough of those to
578
00:30:49.200 --> 00:30:53.759
win the really close races, so that GOP has the
579
00:30:53.799 --> 00:30:57.480
opportunity now to win those voters over. But to assume
580
00:30:57.519 --> 00:31:01.240
they've won them over is way, way, way wrong. To
581
00:31:01.279 --> 00:31:03.839
assume they've won them over just because they voted Republican
582
00:31:03.880 --> 00:31:06.880
in the last election. No, so many were just voting
583
00:31:07.039 --> 00:31:09.480
for Trump. And we've seen examples of that, right since
584
00:31:09.519 --> 00:31:13.640
twenty sixteen, we've seen win a bull Senate race is lost,
585
00:31:14.160 --> 00:31:18.359
you know, because the candidates, you know, we're try to
586
00:31:18.400 --> 00:31:23.039
imitate Trump, et cetera. And that's that the voters wanted
587
00:31:23.039 --> 00:31:26.519
that from Trump. But there's only one Trump, Yes, So
588
00:31:26.640 --> 00:31:29.240
it's going to be very interesting to watch this, and
589
00:31:29.720 --> 00:31:32.200
I hope the GOP takes advantage of the gift Trump
590
00:31:32.279 --> 00:31:35.799
gave them, you know, the wins, the opportunity these years
591
00:31:35.880 --> 00:31:40.039
to convince the voters to stay with them when the
592
00:31:40.039 --> 00:31:43.119
president enters that last two years of his term and
593
00:31:43.160 --> 00:31:47.759
then when he's gone. Now, because of that opportunity and
594
00:31:47.839 --> 00:31:50.720
because of what the texture alludes to, and we've talked
595
00:31:50.720 --> 00:31:54.359
about a lot, right the enormous talent on the GOP bench.
596
00:31:55.640 --> 00:31:57.720
In terms of the White House, I think there is
597
00:31:57.799 --> 00:32:01.160
a tremendous opportunity to hold on to the White House
598
00:32:01.839 --> 00:32:04.440
because look at I mean, you've got jd You've got
599
00:32:04.480 --> 00:32:08.279
Marco Rubio, You've got other really talented people. The GOP
600
00:32:08.599 --> 00:32:11.839
is stacked. You look at the Democrats. I mean, Ryan,
601
00:32:11.839 --> 00:32:14.799
could you think of a single Democrat now other than
602
00:32:15.079 --> 00:32:17.839
I think Josh Shapiro's really talented to His problem is
603
00:32:18.000 --> 00:32:21.319
he's part of a party who's big money folks in
604
00:32:21.400 --> 00:32:24.720
leadership has become kind of anti Semitic. So that's a
605
00:32:24.759 --> 00:32:29.200
problem for their most talented guy, Governor Shapiro Pennsylvania. But
606
00:32:29.759 --> 00:32:32.799
beyond that, where's the talent on the Democrats side the GOP?
607
00:32:33.079 --> 00:32:36.640
It's overflowing. Dan, That's where I think George Clooney is
608
00:32:36.640 --> 00:32:39.960
exactly wrong. I mean, he has no knowledge, awareness, interest,
609
00:32:40.079 --> 00:32:42.480
or even curiosity about what's going on on our side
610
00:32:42.519 --> 00:32:44.799
of the ledger. He sees these other people and I
611
00:32:44.799 --> 00:32:47.599
would add Ronda Santas to that list the textas provided
612
00:32:48.079 --> 00:32:50.759
these are heavyweights in terms of the arena of idea
613
00:32:51.200 --> 00:32:53.960
and another one that would be formidable. But there are
614
00:32:54.000 --> 00:32:57.519
no Democrats that are reasonable rational. I mean John Fetterman,
615
00:32:57.599 --> 00:33:00.519
but he'll never get nominated for larger office in the
616
00:33:00.519 --> 00:33:04.279
Democratic Party, and Josh Shapiro can't because he's Jewish and
617
00:33:04.319 --> 00:33:05.480
it's an anti Semitic party.
618
00:33:05.480 --> 00:33:08.240
Now, yeah, and that's that's the problem they have right now.
619
00:33:08.400 --> 00:33:12.680
Is anybody good they will eat right, they'll kill him.
620
00:33:12.920 --> 00:33:15.839
They'll kill them in the crib. So that's that's the
621
00:33:15.880 --> 00:33:18.319
problem they have. But yes, but I think there's a
622
00:33:18.359 --> 00:33:21.319
separation between the White House and the rest of these
623
00:33:21.440 --> 00:33:24.039
races around the country in terms of will the Trump
624
00:33:24.119 --> 00:33:25.920
voters show up for GOP and that's where it gets
625
00:33:25.960 --> 00:33:28.960
more dangerous. But on the White House level, and listen, Clooney,
626
00:33:29.000 --> 00:33:32.799
he's like I say, he's wrong about virtually everything, but
627
00:33:32.799 --> 00:33:38.039
but I think it is literally true that that to
628
00:33:38.160 --> 00:33:40.920
a certain extent, he calls it trump Ism, right, it's
629
00:33:41.000 --> 00:33:44.799
it's make America great again. To a certain extent, there
630
00:33:44.839 --> 00:33:47.359
will be leakage when President Trump is done, no matter
631
00:33:47.400 --> 00:33:51.400
how good the candidate is. But I just think that
632
00:33:51.400 --> 00:33:56.039
that these conservative principles work. Donald Trump's been able to
633
00:33:56.119 --> 00:33:59.480
prove that. And it's not always purely conservative principles for him,
634
00:33:59.480 --> 00:34:03.319
but the conservative principles work. He's done tremendously with that
635
00:34:03.839 --> 00:34:07.480
America benefits from it, which makes it more likely then
636
00:34:07.599 --> 00:34:10.360
whether it's a JD. Vance or Marco Rubio or Ron
637
00:34:10.400 --> 00:34:13.800
De Santis or somebody else that they'll never be exactly
638
00:34:13.840 --> 00:34:16.000
like Trump. They're never going to have that same appeal.
639
00:34:16.000 --> 00:34:18.320
There's only one man ever who would have that appeal,
640
00:34:18.880 --> 00:34:21.679
and that's Donald Trump. But they are in a position
641
00:34:22.239 --> 00:34:25.039
to take advantage of much of the base but then
642
00:34:25.119 --> 00:34:26.599
build on it with their own appeal.
643
00:34:26.639 --> 00:34:29.599
Trump is a unique phenomenon and it cannot be underestimated.
644
00:34:29.639 --> 00:34:32.119
That's why the Democrats lost to him twice is they
645
00:34:32.199 --> 00:34:35.000
underestimated him. You cannot do that, and you can't take
646
00:34:35.079 --> 00:34:38.280
him for granted. The energy that he generated, dan the rallies,
647
00:34:38.480 --> 00:34:41.519
I've never seen anything like in American politics. So you
648
00:34:41.559 --> 00:34:44.159
have Jdvance, you have Marco Rubio, you have Ron De Santis,
649
00:34:44.199 --> 00:34:47.400
you have many others that can articulate the message, and logically,
650
00:34:47.599 --> 00:34:49.639
left brain might do a better job of that than
651
00:34:49.679 --> 00:34:53.440
Trump even but the visceral emotional response that Trump in
652
00:34:53.599 --> 00:34:56.519
generated and people who never voted before to hold onto
653
00:34:56.519 --> 00:34:58.719
those voters is going to be a challenge.
654
00:34:59.119 --> 00:35:02.679
It is, I believe for purposes of the White House.
655
00:35:02.679 --> 00:35:04.800
The GOP is going to meet that challenge because of
656
00:35:04.840 --> 00:35:07.400
the enormous talent and how bad the Democrats are. When
657
00:35:07.400 --> 00:35:09.480
we start getting down to the state level, they really
658
00:35:09.559 --> 00:35:12.800
close races. That's where it gets scary for the GOP.
659
00:35:13.480 --> 00:35:15.800
And you've still got to keep your a game, you know,
660
00:35:15.840 --> 00:35:19.360
because even though the Democrats don't have any national talent,
661
00:35:19.719 --> 00:35:22.400
when you get down to individual state races and you
662
00:35:22.800 --> 00:35:25.920
start talking about popular Democrats within the state, maybe they're
663
00:35:25.920 --> 00:35:28.840
the lieutenant governor this or that, that's where you start
664
00:35:28.840 --> 00:35:31.960
getting into a different dynamics. So when we come back,
665
00:35:32.000 --> 00:35:35.039
lots to do in the next hour. Tremendous US Supreme
666
00:35:35.079 --> 00:35:37.639
Court decision today great for the entire country. We'll get
667
