Okay, we're live. We're officially live with podcasts episode number 31 back with Tom and
Adam today. Jens, how are you?
Good to see you guys.
You doing good? Get that together.
Okay.
By the way, Tom, you guys missed. The Tom was just saying that Leonardo DiCaprio is the greatest
act of your generation last 20 years.
I did say that. Yes.
What movie? Favorite movie of his last 20 years?
My point is that any role he's in, he's so believable. I mean, I was just talking about
this with my daughter, the other day. I was going, you know, the dude gets so much pub
for the young models and everything in Titanic. But man, when you think about it, he is a great
actor. Catch me if you can. Once upon a time in Hollywood, everything he's been in. I mean,
this is the list is long. The one where he carved or crawled into a bare carcass, whatever
that was. It's pretty. He got the Academy Award. That was pretty legit.
And that was his first.
Remember how he held the Academy?
Do you remember how he held the Academy when he won?
What did you do?
You don't remember this?
Here's how he held it.
Have you seen a picture of this?
You mean the trophy?
Yeah.
He held this card like this.
And he looked at the Academy like this.
You don't remember this?
With the middle finger sticking out.
Yeah, here.
Because all these years, they never gave one one.
Anyways. He had me a blood diamond.
Seemed blood diamond.
Blood diamond.
Yeah, of course I've seen blood diamond.
To say that's his best.
I like the fact that you never choose the best of any of you.
Really?
You got a lot of, like how you do that.
Okay, so that is on fire today.
We got a lot of, you don't know, Pat is on fire.
We got a lot of stuff to cover today, a lot of stuff
to cover today. The reason why we're talking about the caprio, let's get the snog that
it with. It's a big announcement. He's officially going to be a daddy at 46 and a mommy is 23.
That's one of the reasons why we're talking about. Are we breaking the news here? Is that
one? What were you saying? You were saying how in the hell that he all these years never
get anybody pregnant? So what you were talking about. It's pull out game is strong. There we go. It is what it is. Something I'm not good at. Okay.
All right. Okay. All right. All right. That's what happens when you get three kids and two more
on the way that's I have not mastered that ability. Here's our topics today. Goldman
sparks Florida's effort to become Wall Street South. Goldman Sachs planning on leaving one
of their divisions to go to Florida. We'll talk about that. Doing Johnson's tequila company on pace for record breaking
first year sales. That includes beating a cloonie, right? I think he's kicking cloonies
about right. Would you be willing to take the COVID shot for 1500 bucks? That's what they're
talking about. Kyle will give you $1,500 to take the COVID shot. You're going to do it, Eric. Sam, will you take the COVID shot for 1500 bucks?
Eric's doing that. The government's trying to bribe you to take the COVID shot.
That's comforting too. Yeah, very much. Silicon Valley elites are moving to Florida,
but VCs told the mayor that a state law needs to change before more would relocate. A slap
in the face, LA restaurant, Ono video will share with you.
That's gonna be pretty epic.
Heartfelt video.
Restaurants, United Nations Mission,
Coronavirus restrictions.
Nasdaq, CEC, a board's diversity rule
that most listed firms don't meet.
Rashida Jones named the president of MSNBC,
becoming the first black leader of cable news network.
And then we got Trump talking about plans
of a mate for TV exit on Air Force one
from the White House to rally on inauguration.
They hope and to pull viewers from Biden.
It's kind of like what LeBron James did
leaving to Miami times a million.
The announcement.
The announcement.
Senators behind the bipartisan,
$900 billion, COVID stimulus plan,
say they're close to an agreement,
which is good news for many.
Sanders criticized it.
Matthew McConaughey unfortunately,
he's getting pushed around a little bit in Hollywood
for slamming Hollywood's hypocrisy
over 2020 election results.
Trump to sign a first made executive order.
He plans on running 2024.
COVID changing, the quarantine time.
There's a Logan Paul Mayweather fight.
Not Logan Paul, you got to respect those guys.
And for those of you, there were people that were very concerned
about Komi never getting a job again.
Komi officially got a job as a professor at Columbia Law School.
I know you were concerned about.
I was going to say like a dormant somewhere, you know, a bouncer.
He was like, six, seven.
We'll talk about that.
So that's what we have.
And on top of that, and on top of that,
we got some interesting topics that I sent you.
Do you have all of them?
I send you two other articles, by the way,
if you want to get them ready for China.
But before we do that, here's what I want to do.
Why don't you just pull up the first video
of the lady who runs a restaurant in California.
Sherman Oaks, California, not too far from me
and an hour away from me,
hour and 15 minutes away from you.
Sherman Oaks, California, who this happened to her
and you're gonna feel, I mean, this video on Twitter
has already got 9 million views.
Her GoFundMe right now, what is her GoFundMe ad right now?
It has a cross $200,000.
I think it was $150 yesterday. It was, yeah, when we did the video yesterday,
it was 107. Let's see where it's at now. A second one. There you go. 164. Okay. Good for
she's the one in the middle. And here's what happened to her. Play the video. Take a look
at this, folks. She runs as soon as she spot. So this is my place, the Pineapple Hill Grill in Saloon.
If you go to my page, you can see all the work I did for outdoor dining,
for tables being 7 feet apart.
And I come in today because I'm organizing a protest
and I came in to get stuff for that.
And I walk into my parking lot,
and obviously Mayor Garcetti has approved this.
Adam, have you seen this?
I've not seen it.
Okay, this is good.
Tom, you've seen this.
Okay, watch this.
Okay.
This being set up for a movie company.
A movie?
Yeah. Movie. Movie. Yeah. Movie. for a movie company.
A movie? Yeah.
A movie.
Movie.
But watch, watch what happens to you.
I'm losing everything.
Everything I own is being taken away from me.
And they set up a movie company right next
to my outdoor patio, which is right over here.
How do you justify it?
And be all-
I wonder why.
I'm protesting.
And why?
I have had enough.
They have not given us money and they have shut us down.
We cannot survive.
My staff cannot survive.
Look at this.
Look how far apart they are.
Tell me that this is dangerous.
20 yards.
Yeah.
But right next to me is a slap in my face.
That's safe.
This is safe.
50 feet away.
This is dangerous.
Mayor Garcetti and Gavin Newsom is responsible for every single person that doesn't have unemployment,
that says not have a job, and all the businesses that are going under.
And we need your help.
We need somebody to do something about this.
You know, that's more powerful than if they had scripted it.
Oh, I mean, she is so good.
Listen, you feel, I'm paying.
When I first saw that, I was so mad.
I mean, I could not believe what I was watching in hearing.
I could not believe it and it brought it all to life.
Do you know how much she spent renovating her deck
to get it ready?
$80,000, $80, grand, she paid to renovate that.
I know so many stories like that.
Garcetti is such a prick.
I just can't even believe it.
When you heard his reaction to this,
my heart goes out to her.
And that's all he said.
No thoughts, no offer to assist them in any way.
It's the beginning.
They are trying to legislate fun out of people's lives.
I really believe that.
I think they have chosen the restaurant industry to demolish it for some reason in some
of these states in California for sure.
I mean, it's unbelievable.
Manhattan Beach, you know, we were talking about that last week.
These guys are smart because you know, the same thing you can about their dining there
and every restaurant. There's a lot of great restaurants there and they all about their
dining. They've designated all their outdoor decks as public parks. So now you can get
your takeout and go sit out there. So they found a little loophole and I'm sure city halls
takes off about it. I'm sure Ellie County's not happy about it. But man, she's a star now.
She was on Fox yesterday. She was as compelling on Neil Cavuto show yesterday. She was there.
I mean, she is going to be the face of this movement
from coast to coast Michigan.
Watch what's happening there.
New York same thing.
It's just the beginning of what's going on.
So three quick things.
How do you, number one, how do you not feel for that lady?
I mean, I don't care whether you're,
where you stand politically, mass, no mask left, right?
Up down, the lady's pouring her heart out right there. If you don't feel for her, like you're mask left, right, up down.
The lady's pouring her heart out right there. If you don't feel for her, like you're missing something going on in your life.
So yeah, I got the chills just watching her.
That's number one.
Number two, the outdoor dining thing really, California is that absurd
that they're shutting down outdoor dining.
Like we've, we all had lunch.
We, we were in Manhattan Beach.
There's a big difference between indoor dining and social distancing and all that and outdoor dining.
I mean, that I've said the same thing continuously.
I don't understand why they're shutting down outdoor restaurants like hers,
especially when she's set up a specific area for people to eat and I mean the hypocrisy of setting up a movie company.
I mean, you couldn't again, couldn't have scripted that any better.
And then here's, I guess my third point.
You said that the mayor responded.
It's on you, buddy. It's on you to make a move now.
After seeing that, that is a tangible example.
Are you just going to sort of be like, oh, my heart goes out to you and give the standard quote?
Are you actually going to say something to that specific situation?
Because there's a case example
of how you are messing up, buddy.
I'm sure there's a million different case examples,
but that is now live in effect.
You have ever been to a funeral?
Yes, I have.
You have ever been to a funeral where a person,
you know, you go to a funeral and then there's a funeral.
What I mean by that is you go to a funeral
where everybody's very amicable.
And it was kind of like, yeah, hey, you know what, sorry, man, this is I'm sorry.
Hey, you know, all this other stuff.
Yeah.
You ever go to a funeral where somebody is crying and you fully feel the pain with zero
acting, no drum.
You ever been to a store like that last week?
Yeah, I mean, you go to funerals like this.
That's what happened.
That's our funeral right there.
That's the small businesses funeral.
You just saw that.
But she's slapping the face too. Of course it's a slapping the face because it was caused by something that could have been prevented.
That's the stuff that's annoying. That's when politics gets in and gets dirty. That's when somebody like that takes a hit.
But by the way, what people don't realize is,
you know, you can only go so far doing this. We're going to keep showing this up. Every
time a video like this comes up, we're going to show it. And we should. How much money
did she raise? 200 grand, I think. 160,000 dollars. Is that a lot of money? For her, yes.
In general, maybe not. Okay, check this out. That's after 9.1 million views.
Surely raise 164,000 dollars. So that means you need to, you need to have a video go viral
like this to be able to raise that kind of money. How about the rest of the people that don't get this kind of exposure?
How about the rest of the people that don't have a video like that that gets picked up and goes on TV?
How about the rest of the people?
How about those guys?
How about the people that don't have a platform and don't go communicate and they don't get picked up anybody?
How about that?
Nobody talks about them.
You think they're going to be able to raise $200,000?
And I'm like, no, they're just having a shutdown.
Now, she's going to make it.
She's going to be okay because $80000 dollars she's spent on the dick. She's getting that
back and more. And she can shut them for a couple months and pay some of her workers and
say, guys, let's just kick back for it.
And she'll be known as the restaurant that she is the people go there.
But how about the rest of the thousands that nothing can be done about?
I'm an idea. I'm going to throw this out there right now. Why don't value payment?
Why don't we do a telephone like they do do after a big disaster, after a hurricane.
We should do a telephone for the restaurant industry.
We could raise them tens and tens of millions.
I think that's a great idea.
I would actually be very open to that for getting, but we would need to collect the stories
I'd want to get people from across.
I'd love to be able to do something like that because for me, my concern isn't her.
She's fine.
She's officially fine.
She's officially going to be known as what? The restaurant. She's fine. She's officially fine. She's officially going to be going to
be known as what? The rest of her. So you're going to go eat there intentionally just to
do what I want to support your business. Right. Right. But the rest of them are the ones
that are going to take a massive hit. She's not going to change it. Why is it that the
restaurant industry? You said that you thought that the restaurant industry was single
handily being singled out. I can't answer that. They have to answer that because they have
singled it out. And I'll tell you what, there's a couple tipping points coming up. Wednesday, there's
up strong, powerful group of restaurant owners in LA. I mean, it's a great restaurant
city. And these guys are ticked off. So they went to LA County and the judge was told the
county that by Wednesday, you have to come back here and prove that there's contact tracing
that this is dangerous that you actually have the data to prove that outdoor dining is spreading COVID.
So Wednesday is the day to watch, because if they can't do that, the judge might just open
up the outdoor dining for everybody.
Here's the other thing I say, it's going to lead to violence.
Look what's happening in Michigan, the way Whitmer is shutting down restaurants and everything
right there.
Those people don't play out there.
I mean, they have militias.
Remember, they almost tried to abduct the governor.
They had this alive for a plan to kill her.
It's going to be a time.
Let's do it. Let's do it. Let's do it.
Let's get it now.
When you see that pain on her face, multiply that by probably a million people around the
country that work in the restaurant industry.
She literally said on Fox News today, she had two employees, family members that are new
two people that committed suicide, that killed themselves since this began.
Someone is homeless because of this.
And this is just in her little small circle and they don't give a damn about it, which is just disgusting.
You said a million people that are working a restaurant industry. It's not a million
people. You know what the number is? It's 30 million people. It's not a small number.
10% of Americans working the service industry, 10% of Americans working the service industry.
You've got bars, restaurants, clubs, clubs, clubs, you're talking about 15 to 30 million.
They say as high as 50 million at one point have contributed towards that industry.
Like we've all worked in that industry.
I've worked in the industry before.
You know, the other thing too is it's not like these restaurant orders.
They tried to do it that guy in Staten Island.
You know, he called his bar in autonomous zone and tried to keep it open.
The city went there.
He raised 80 grand by the way.
He did. He raised some money too. but they're playing with fire because they're
all dictated by licenses, liquor licenses, right? And things like that, food and beverage
licenses. The state can shut them down so easy. So it's not like they can just open the
door. This is very important for you to repeat one more time folks. Pay very close attention
with time. Just said right there. Say, say what you just said one more time. Right. Because
if they want to protest and say screw you, government. We're just going to open our doors and we don't care.
The state can just shut them down because they all have liquor licenses.
That's right.
They have licenses to serve food, to have outdoor dining area.
So the state has them, man.
That is, that is mafia at the highest level.
Their doors stay open contingent on the licensing being active.
They can't come in a second.
Yeah.
They pull them right away.
But something, something to add, you know,
we've talked about this recovery
and obviously the stock market is bounce back
and then some, is the V-shaped, is it the K-shaped?
What kind of V-shaped is the L-shaped?
This is a clear indication of this K-shaped economy
where the rich get richer
and people that work in the insurance business
or the financial services business
or anything where you could work from home,
you'll be okay. You can work from home, you'll be okay.
You can work from home, but anything that you need to get out of your house and work in
the service base industry, whether it's restaurants, bars, clubs, all that, cruise ships,
anything travel related hospitality.
That's the, you know, the bottom half of the K shaped economy.
And those people are struggling right now.
And that's why Congress needs the frickin' act and get their act together and pass this
trillion dollar bill already. But that's not gonna needs to fricking act and get their act together and pass this trillion dollar bill already.
But that's not going to solve every problem.
Think about these people, man.
They're also living California.
Where rent is high, taxes are high.
It's a desperate situation.
That's crazy.
The two places that are taking the biggest hit is New York and California.
And those are the two places that are cost-alive and as, you know, out of this world.
You know, I lived there for a long time.
And you know what it is to live in California.
It's not cheap living over there.
It's very expensive to be living over there.
So that leads me to the next story,
which is Goldman Sachs.
So here's Goldman Sachs.
When you think about Goldman Sachs,
you only think about one state.
You think about one city.
New York City.
You don't think about anything else.
It's New York, Goldman Sachs, right?
New York.
Goldman Sachs and Elliot Management Corp
are breathing new life into the decade old idea of converting the Miami to West Palm Beach corridor into a southern hub for finance
and investing in notion that would have monumental implications for the areas development.
Now Goldman is weighing a new floor to hub for its asset management on why billionaire
Paul Singers, 41 billion out-of-the-hedge fund, Elliott Management Corp plans to move its
headquarters to West Palm Beach according to people familiar
with discussions, trailblazing, blazing moves
by industry giants could open a floodgates of other firms,
many of which have been hesitant to leave the center
of financial, financial universe for the promise of better.
Can you imagine if these guys make them,
well, a car like I can't recently decided
relocated as asset management to Florida,
Ken Griffin, Citadel plans to open an office
in Miami next to according to a person
with knowledge of his plans.
You know, Elon Musk just told a few friends
that he's leaving California for Texas.
Elon Musk is telling his friends.
In an interview a few months ago,
he said, no, I'm not leaving California.
Just recently his friends, imagine you're having dinner
with your friends saying,
Elon, are you ever gonna leave California?
I'm thinking about moving to Texas.
And friends are saying, you know, Elon's thinking about to leave California? I'm thinking about moving to Texas and friends are saying, you know, Ilan's thinking about
moving to Texas.
They're thinking there is no consequences, but people are going to be leaving.
What happens if a Goldman leaves to Florida?
It's, we talk about this every week.
We're shocked at a company's moving and then it's every week.
There's a new one and it's a bigger one and it's a higher profile one.
These government leaders in Sacramento, California and is Albany, the capital in New York.
Is it Albany?
They must be so myopic and so stupid and not have enough people around them to challenge
them on anything.
This is a crisis of epic proportions for these states.
It's as big as the pandemic, if you ask me, when you have companies, because the pandemic
is eventually going to end, right? There's going to have a vaccine, things eventually will slow down and get back to normal.
You have these companies bolting, I mean, multiply this tax revenue year by year by year,
and then you have these high earners that aren't paying individual income tax into the state.
And why wouldn't they all move to Texas and Florida? There's no state income tax.
I mean, I cannot believe that they aren't treating this like the crisis
that it is because it is only the beginning.
What do you think? What do you think? What do you think? He's thinking about his book.
I think about the next interview he's doing. I think that yes, I do. I'm almost very aware
of this. He begged and pleaded, look, I'll cook you dinner. Remember that quote? I remember
that. Look, come over. I'll cook you dinner. Don't leave. That. That. That. That.
Quomans are aware of this. I don't think he's immune to this.
But at the same time, you know, this has this decades old, breathing new life into this
decades old idea.
This is not a new idea of New Yorkers basically thinking about coming down to my-
Yeah, but now they're actually doing it.
Relax.
I got you, Tom.
Tom fired up.
This is- this is nothing new.
I feel like they've been playing hopscotch for a while.
Look, Born and Raised Am I May, I've lived in my entire life.
I know a lot of people that basically,
I mean, half my friends have been like,
yeah, man, I just couldn't do it in New York.
Especially when they have kids.
Especially when they have kids.
You can be single, have a time of your fricking life
in New York City, run around.
You meet a girl, you meet a guy.
Next thing you know you have kids, you're, I'm living in a fricking shoe box.
I'm paying $5,000 a month here.
What the, am I doing?
Hold on.
For five grand a month, I can get a sick house on the water in Boca Raton or West Palmer
and Miami and Fort Laudder or whatever.
And I feel like for years, for decades, people have been sort of playing hopscotch with,
you know, what's the jump rope game when you, you know, you're kind of like thinking about going,
thinking about going.
Next thing you, a double dutch, thank you.
Who was that?
Eric, you're thinking about doing double dutch.
Boom, pandemic happens.
And then they're thinking, dude,
I'm gonna think about this for years now.
Talking about just individuals,
forget about corporations.
We can talk about corporations as well.
They've been thinking about it forever now.
And now the pandemic happens, they're like,
screw it.
What do we have to fucking lose?
I can hear some more now.
Here's a question down.
What keeps, I get what keeps people in California.
I totally get it.
I mean, if you've been there,
we went there, the weather we're hanging out with Shana.
Listen, the weather, I live there 20, some years.
Beautiful.
What keeps people in New York?
Well, look, number one, there's still,
it's talking about individuals or corporations.
Give me both.
What keeps people in New York?
It is the financial corporations.
It is.
Talent is one.
Talent beyond.
Like I live in Miami, you cannot compare the brain power and the talent in New York versus
Miami.
Miami's got a lot of favorable things going its way.
Clearly the weather, the weather, the weather, the weather, the low taxes, the fun, the
sun, all that.
You'd be very hard pressed to find a very intellectual
conversation going on Miami, bro.
It's not gonna happen for the most part, bro.
Like there's just not that level of brain trust in Miami.
It's changing though, it's changing.
What else is keeping people in New York?
I mean, look, no doubt.
And Jerry Seinfeld did a thing about this, where he's like, look,
you could say that New York is dying and nobody's coming back to New York.
New York is still the best city in the country, in my opinion, straight up.
As far as like, but what?
Why?
Dude, I mean, it was the last time you just hung out.
No, don't be wrong.
Listen, I love New York.
I love New York.
I love, but I'm asking you, why?
My favorite thing to do in this world, and you're talking about somebody who's born and
raised in Miami, loves Miami, at this one place I could live year round, it'd be Miami,
because I just can't take the form.
But my favorite thing to do is just put on some earbuds and just walk around New York.
So here's a question, but for vacation or to live?
For vacation.
Okay.
So why do people live and stay in your question?
Because 12 years out of the year, 12 months.
I say you have, we have some culture.
That's what I was going to say.
I was going to say culture.
And then everybody, the belief that you are in the epicenter of the world.
I mean, New York is where everything happens or at least it used to be.
So I think that kept people there, feel of, feel your of missing out.
You know, professionally, if you live somewhere else, it's just not the same or it hasn't been.
I mean, the buzz and the excitement of New York is incredible.
I think if you look at the, the, the, look at Cuomo's attitude, look at Trump's attitude,
look at New York's attitude, right?
There's an attitude about New York.
It's very attractive.
The attitude of New York's like, no, here's what I'm going to do.
And we're going to figure out a way.
You don't like, you know, it's like it's a, it's a, you can'm gonna do. And we're gonna figure out a way. You don't like it, it's like, it's a...
You can make it there, you can make it anyway.
A very unique attitude about...
That attitude does not exist to Miami, I'm telling you.
But what I'm trying to tell you is,
I've done business with people from every state.
I've done business with people from every state,
every religion, pretty much, you can think.
I've done business with everybody, right?
There's something very unique about doing business
with people from New York. I love doing business with people from New York.
I love doing business with people from New York.
The way they are, you're gonna know very quickly
if something's gonna happen or not.
It's not like, well, can I get you something?
Would you like to see the, hey, Mary, can you get us something?
It's like, so listen, you know, when I look at what you got
going on and what we got going on,
I think there's something here.
What do you think?
How about we do this?
I think it's really only the night.
It's just a very simple open conversation with them to have.
But that talent is transferable to any market.
You take that talent to market like Florida.
You got a big upside.
Big upside, right?
And so you go to Florida, a state with no taxes,
whether you're around yesterday,
we're looking at checking out the weather last night
in Palm Beach, 64 degrees. It hit 47 yesterday. We're looking at checking out the weather last night in Palm Beach
64 degrees. It hit 47 yesterday people are free Palm Beach. They're freaking out. It going as a diet. That's the point Yeah, you go on us are dying. They're freezing right? Yeah, real story. I know you're telling me this so
But 60 46 in New York is like you have a guy COVID-19
In New York so yeah, so you know you people people don't think anyone's going to leave New York until
they do.
Yep.
That's really what it's all about.
And then there's a gallop behind them, you know, a couple other things.
Now with all these people and all these corporations leaving New York, what's going to have to happen?
They're going to have to raise taxes for the people that stay there, right?
I mean, isn't that logical that it's going to even get worse?
Yeah.
You know, I'm with you, man, as far as like hanging out in New York, there's nothing like it.
The last time I was in New York was in February
and that was right at the beginning.
I would say like a week before the pandemic
and I already noticed it was different.
I really did.
I think the Blasio has done such damage to that city.
I mean, they need a mayor like Giuliani
to come in there and restore that city
because that was New York in the 70s
and the eighties.
The Giuliani of the 90s or Giuliani of today.
The 90s.
The big difference.
Yeah.
Like I was a mess right now.
By the way, if you're watching this,
you're listening to this.
What do you think about it?
What keeps people in New York?
What keeps people in New York?
Why don't people want to leave New York?
I mean, obviously, the slow, slow,
what the pandemic did at exposed states
like California and New York in a big way.
Pandemic was not good for California and New York by the way.
No, horrible.
Horrible for those two states.
Can I make one last point?
Sure.
And I really truly mean this.
I believe you look at these two states by far handling the pandemic, the worst, the worst
situation, the worst stories we hear in California and New York.
I believe that Cuomo thinks he's a rock star.
I really do.
The interviews, the books, I think he's thinking of what's next for him.
I truly believe he's thinking more about what's next, and I think the same thing about
Newsom.
I don't think they care enough about what's going on.
They're thinking about their next move.
Newsom's thinking about being president.
Cuomo's thinking about being a rock star and whatever else is coming up after and they're
neglecting things that are happening right now because they're so selfish.
What do you think will be president first who has a higher likelihood being president?
Do you want to know so?
Cuomo or Newsom?
Newsom.
I go Cuomo.
Tell me why.
I think he's got a broader appeal.
I think, look, you think that Cuomo's hand, New York's handling the pandemic worse.
I think between Garcetti and Newsom,
they're freaking disaster.
New York, in essence, that's just where the pandemic started.
All right, so think about people are living within
like shoe boxes of each other.
Like that's a lot harder to deal with.
People are living on living on living on people
right on top of people.
Versus LA is completely spread out.
Like you can eat outdoor, no problem.
Weather's fine.
You can do what this New York is freezing.
You're living on top of each other.
Totally different beast.
Totally different beast.
And so you're saying Cuomo before Newsom.
I'm just saying, I think you think America is ready for a single president?
Is he not married?
He's not married.
What's going on there? You can read into it. I'm not going to talk about it. I don't? He's not married. What's going on there?
You can read into it.
I'm not gonna talk about it.
I don't think he's got the Lindsey Graham thing going on.
What?
Is that common knowledge?
What's up with Lindsey Graham?
The Lindsey Graham thing?
Oh, you know what the Lindsey?
Put it this way.
I wouldn't be shocked if Lindsey Graham
was one of those 25 guys hanging out in a Hungarian
or a...
You think so?
Oh yeah.
You think he parties in hungry.
So go back to it.
So do you think America's ready for a single president?
Look, do you think America?
Let me tell you, I'm being on, by the way,
look, but listen, I think things that are going on America right now,
you think I can get a president.
So yeah, single one will be fine for America.
That's true.
That's horrible.
I dropped.
That's crazy.
I agree with you Tom.
So, so, so, wait a minute. I'm actually asking a serious question. When John Kennedy was running, everybody said,
is America ready for a Catholic president? And the answer was what? Yes. Is America ready
for a Barack Obama? Yes. Is America ready for a woman to be a president? Is America ready
for a single man to be a president? Yeah. Well, as far as a single man, let me tell you
something, the guy's going to have no shortage of ladies being like, look, you know, I see your, you know.
Well, it's not what I'm asking you, I'm asking you.
There's America care.
Do you care for your president's single or a member?
America doesn't care.
Do you care?
Do you care?
Do you care?
No.
I don't.
I clearly, competent.
Wait, clearly you care.
No, no, I'm asking.
Clearly you care.
I tell you, it's not about me.
There's eight men in here.
No one, we all said, I know.
We all said, no, we all said, no.
But what about you?
You're going somewhere with this.
You think, you're going somewhere with this.
You think women are going to be saying 100% yes?
I don't know about that.
I know.
It's going to be like, I don't know.
I think, you know, how can you relate to me
if you don't have a family?
How can you?
He's never been married.
He's been married.
Okay.
When we talking about that, and he's got kids?
He's not married today. Ah, he gives a shit. He's smart then. He picks up Leo's up married. Okay. When we talking about that and he's got kids. He's not married today. Wow.
Give the shit. They smart them. He picks up. So what you're saying is you don't give
us. If you're watching this, why do I'm asking you this? If you really don't care, if the
president is single, put thumbs up. If you care for the president to be married, put thumbs
up. They've all acted like they were single anyway. Every time I got my friend Vince, you know, Vince, he just, I got a random text from him.
He said, Lindsey Graham definitely puts from the rough.
Shout out to Vince Richardson.
It's my guy.
How would Vince know though?
Vince has got some neighborhood.
He knows what's going on.
Maybe he's hosted the party.
Vince is in touch with the people.
He knows.
Vince is in touch with the people.
But I don't think bottom line is I don't think anyone cares.
Well, look, the reason why I'm bringing this up, I'm bringing this up because Bloomberg
is single.
And he ran and nobody brought it up and it wasn't a topic.
It wasn't like something, hey, you know, is anybody, you know, gonna bring that up and
it was never brought up?
No.
But quite frankly, Bloomberg man on the debate stage, he was, he was a putt.
Yeah, charisma, yeah, swag. Maybe the most style. You could, he was a putt. Yeah, charisma. He had swag. Maybe the
style. You could tell he had all sorts of energy. You agreed. Right? Bloomberg. He had
what trust. Dan's on it. By the way, that comment right there could be used. If he was
running today, they would use that for one of his emotions. He's got charisma. He's
got. If you want to pay me for that quote, you can reach me at value.
Oh my gosh.
Okay.
So Duane Johnson's about to be billionaire, just so everybody knows.
Of course, he's already making $80 to $120 million a year as an actor, high-spade actor in
the world.
But on top of that, his teramana is prepared to sell 300,000 nine-liter cases and ship
nearly 400,000 cases.
And it's first year comparing Johnson on social media to George Clooney, Randy Gerber and Michael Meldman,
soldier, their Tequila brand to spirits, giant Diage, Diage, Diageos at 175,000 cases a year,
reportedly for billion dollars. There are entire Teiramanateem and myself, or quite please,
and humble that the brand is experiencing this incredible off the chart success he told Forbes.
But we also recognize there's much more work to be done.
We're building a monofiligacy brand and I'm in for the long call.
So what do you think?
You know what?
Here was my first reaction.
Copycat.
This is boring.
Another superstar A-list actor trying to gravy train off George Clooney and Randy Gerber's success.
Then you peel back, Ryan Reynolds did it, right? He had the gin. He had aviation gin,
he sold that for 610 million. There really isn't money in this spirit's business.
But then I peel back and I see what the rock is selling this tequila for.
And he's selling a bottle between 29 and like 39 bucks.
And Casa Migos is like, if you can get it on sale,
it's like 46.
It's expensive.
It's a lot of money.
So I give him all the credit in the world now.
I'm a fan, he flipped me.
I, my initial thought was, man,
do I really need another A-list star
that thinks he's a tequila distributor?
I mean, I, I found it boring.
I found it cliche, actually.
But man, he's killing it. It also shows the power of the rock, because I haven't seen one commercial for
this company. I haven't heard one ad on the radio. So it's all his social media that's
driving this thing. And it just shows the power that whatever he touches, you know, it's
going to explode. And it's unbelievable. That thing is self-reteminated. I have not tasted
it. I never heard of it. I've never heard of it.
Terramana, never heard of it. You know, there's this one app called Instagram.
Yeah, it's crazy.
And if you're on this Instagram,
there's this guy named Dwayne DeRoc, Johnson.
Don't follow him.
And he has like 200 million people that follow him.
And he posts videos of people that buy his tequila every day.
And he posts like 10 of them.
And people having it and celebrate,
you've never heard of this before.
I haven't, I haven't.
I haven't.
So the rock is a big deal by the way.
He's the rock.
He is this good looking actor who's got swag
at the highest level alpha yet at the same time.
The rock.
I think he is the kind of guy you root for.
You cheer for.
You bring up the rock quite often.
You want to see this guy win.
You do.
Listen, you cannot teach charisma and have it at the level of disguise guy.
Do you think it was a bad move that he came out and, you know, did his whole anti-Trump
thing?
No, I don't think.
I think because he's planning on running, he just told you what side of the aisle he's
going to run when he runs.
That's all he did.
He's going to be a devil.
What that told you is when he runs, he's going to run as a devil.
Oh, you think he's going to run?
Do I think he's going to run?
Wow.
Okay.
How old am I right now? 42?
42.
How long of a bet you want to make?
You want to make a $10,000 million dollar bet?
A 10-year million dollar bet.
I'm at bet.
10-year.
I just want to know.
This guy's going to run in the next 10 or 20 years.
And he's,
it's not a n***a note.
Guys, please.
Circle back in 20 years.
He'll be 42.
Well, let me, let me tell you this.
Listen, there are certain guys.
There's certain things that you just see.
He's the kind of guy.
Anything he touches is gonna turn to gold.
Anything he touches turns to gold.
That's the rock.
You want to wrestling?
Wrestling, he became the face.
And, you know, they were trying to make him the bad guy.
And he came out and he says,
I'm not playing the bad guy. I'm only playing the good guy the other night
We're sitting here doing the Lego. Where is the Lego by the way? Do we put it apart? Oh my god the Lego did a break or no?
No, we have to show it but somehow we got a show about that. I don't by the way you can't carry it only guy can carry it
Okay, so we sat here
You got sat down, man. We sat here trying to, what do you call it, break the world record.
This is pretty, are we moving from the rock?
We're done with the rock. No, no, it? 7,500 pieces. It's a big
issue. It's only four. Shout out to your friend, Kathy Schdutz. Yes,
gosh, that's right. You said it good. But you know how long it took us to do it.
We didn't do it. We didn't do it in three hours. Yeah. Yeah.
Tom, yeah. We didn't do it in three hours. Okay, check this out. Look at this. Bring it in.
Bring it in. Bring it in. Go ahead. Kai, where are you going with this? Bring it in.
Right here. Just put it right here.
Oh my God.
This thing hots my dreams.
Watch out, watch out, buddy.
Okay, this right here took us.
This is Kai, ladies and gentlemen.
This is Kai, ladies and gentlemen.
The world record is two hours,
51 minutes and 47 seconds.
Jesus Christ.
Okay.
This thing took us not four hours, not five hours,
not six hours, not seven hours.
I don't believe you'd put more than a couple hours into it.
Well, for me, I was in and out doing cars and zooms and I went to dinner and one
party.
But here's the point.
It got to the point where we said that we said, guys, I mean, at this point, people are
going crazy.
Adam's knocked out, right?
I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm moving.
I'm moving.
And we watch Man on Fire.
You ever seen Man on Fire?
Have you seen Man on Fire?
Have you seen Man on Fire? Eric, you seen Man on Fire? Have you seen Man on Fire? Have you seen Man on Fire?
Eric, you seen Man on Fire?
Is it a romantic comedy?
It's not a romantic comedy.
So you haven't seen it.
So, Man on Fire is with Denzel Washington, I think, is Dakota Fanning in it and a few
other people, right?
Who's the bad guy in the movie?
Who ends up being the bad guy?
Mark Anthony compromises his own daughter to get a, you know, $10 million
check or something like that, right? And I said, why would you even play that part? Right?
Why would you even say yes to that role? Why would you do that? Right? The rock said,
I'm not playing the bad guy. I'm a good guy. I'm a hero. That's who I am. That's his identity.
This is who I am. He goes plays it. Does movies, crushes it in movies. Does all this have now comes out with Ticula at the end of the day.
The only thing that's going to be left for this guy's one thing to be the president.
That's what I agree because he takes over.
When he goes into something, he's not content being great.
He has to be the best.
So there was nothing left for him to accomplish in wrestling, nothing.
He was the best and he couldn't top it.
And then what more can he do in acting?
I mean, there was such a gap between him and anything else.
He's not gonna own a studio.
He doesn't want to be a producer.
He's laying the groundwork for some sort of run.
He has to be-
And plus, why wouldn't he do it though?
And I think he's doing it from the heart.
I think he really thinks that he could do a good job.
Does he have your vote, Tom?
Is he running officially?
I don't know.
I don't know if I can-
Democrat, Tom is thinking of him.
But I'm gonna keep everybody in suspense by saying,
I'm not sure yet.
Here's what I just wanna point out.
I just wanted the audience to realize what just happened.
Pat started with the rock,
shifted gears, brought up the Lego piece,
brought up the Star Wars, brought up Man on Fire,
Mark Anthony and tied it all together
into why the rock would not play the bag.
That was masterful.
I want you to know that.
Like, I was like, where is he going
with the Star Trek and Star Wars?
I have to give a shout out on how incredible
the shot I'm using.
You did it, I'm just saying.
99% of this is out of it.
He did his part right here.
This is one little tiny part.
That was me.
Took me 15 hours to put this together.
Oh, we learned a lot about you doing this Lego.
Oh, good.
By the way, Adam spent one hour
just color coordinating one of the bags, one bag color
coordinate.
Hey, by the way, what do you think he's going to do with the XFL?
Can he actually turn that into a success because he's involved?
He probably can.
I think he could.
Yeah, I think he could.
I think he could.
Can we reveal how long this thing took?
No, no, by the way, the video is coming out here soon.
And we're going to probably give away five of these if a, a, a, when the video comes out, you have
to see the whole thing. I don't want to give the time on how long it took us. Well,
we'll just take a minute. All I can say is it, if we did not break the record, you have
to. I had to cancel all my weekend plans. Literally, we can build this. So for the rest of
you that are watching this, do you think he will run and do you think he will win the rock? Do you think he will run and do you think he will win?
The rock. Do you think he will run and do you think he will win? Let me give a shout out to a couple
of people that gave some here. Let me pull this up pictures. Let me see. I thought I just saw a
couple of people say a few things. Yeah, we had the, I'm a podcast about in New York. Love the
telephone idea and would be happy to help. This is Cafecito break. What you talk about telephone for the small businesses.
Great to hear that.
Maybe email us so we keep that on the list with you in case
if we do that.
Jillian Taseria said Taseria said,
y'all should address the viral video proven voter fraud
in Georgia.
Kai, have you seen a viral video voter fraud in Georgia?
What are your thoughts on the voter fraud?
Love the show.
Tom, the English.
Jillian. You're not touched that. You have another person said, Adam, I will kill you.
Michael Mints wants to know where the hell is the soy boy mafia shirts?
Where is it? Where is it? People are asking for it. So we got to make sure you work on that. Eric's on it.
We got to work on that. We got to get an update on that. Okay. I don't want to break this.
I'm not. You want to take it back? Yeah, take it.
Any final thoughts on this Millennium Falcons?
I'm not. You're gonna take it back. Yeah, take it. Any final thoughts on this Millennium Falcons?
I'm getting emotional.
We had breakfast, lunch, dinner, pat went out to dinner,
it came back.
Mario came in, came out.
Three campers calls, three zooms.
This is the MVP right here.
Kai, Kai was the MVP.
He's down.
I was the LVP.
I was there for, I said, you know, I kept it,
I set my expectations.
What is that on the back?
Is that set up like that or is it breaking in?
No, no, no, no, no. It is like that.
By the way, you know that if you do set a Guinness Book of World record, you have to spend
like $550 bucks or $600 just to get in the book.
The reason I know this is because I tried to do it.
Shonda has not let me live it down.
She goes, Hey, whatever happened to that $500, how'd that go?
Because I wanted to set a Guinness Book of World record with my radio partner when we had
a radio show where we go, let's set the record for talking the longest uninterrupted.
So we looked it up, but we were going to do it for a radio gimmick.
I paid the money 600 bucks or something in 2003.
We paid we paid eight grand because we had to have an, what did it call it?
A judicator with their, oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
We had eight grand in Reno.
We broke the world record for the most checkers players in one room.
We have it outside. They really in the get us. We're in the book. We're in the book.
That is awesome. Man. I mean, seriously, if you go up front today, when you're leaving
go to the front on the wall, you see a Guinness book. Can you go grab everything and bring
a great stunt to set it all the way in the front on the wall? The trophy they gave us
from breaking a Guinness book world record. Because that validates it, man, if you're in
the book, you did it. Well, we try to do with the legal. We definitely failed miserably. The record was not broken.
Did you win the record? Oh, man, we did not. Record was definitely not broke.
Let's rent the money, though. I had to spend the money.
All right. Let's talk about vaccine shot. Let's talk about vaccine shot. Folks,
question for you. So they're now coming up with an idea. They're scared that a lot of people
want to take the vaccine. You saw President Bush Obama and Clinton came out and said we'll take the shot on national
TV and then you saw Ivanka Trump came out and said she would also do it on national TV
to get people to want to take the vaccine.
And then this comes out.
Would you be willing to take a COVID vaccine in exchange for $1,500 stimulus check.
Americans are eager for one-time stimulus checks
while the US government is working to get COVID vaccine
vaccinations to the American public.
Now one proposal from former congressman,
John Delaney, aims to help both sides
by providing stimulus checks in exchange
for getting vaccinated.
The goal, a reach to 75% vaccination rate faster,
which could save both lives and the U.S. economy,
sending Americans $1,500 in exchange for vaccinations could cost $380 billion, which Delaney admits
has a lot of money.
In comparison, the first stimulus checks sent by governments this far.
So has been $270 billion.
However, trying stimulus checks on two vaccinations would actually be the most effective strategy.
Here you go.
We broke a Guinness Book of Roll record.
Seriously.
Nice job.
This was six years ago and Reno and Nevada.
We broke the record.
How many?
I don't remember the numbers.
Hundreds?
It was hundreds.
Yeah, it wasn't that big of a number.
That record can last like if somebody wants to break the record, this can easily be broken.
But we did get this and we're in the book and they did a video on it, which was kind
of cool. So go back to it. Adam. Yes, sir. Tom, government gives you $1,500. You're
going to take the shot. How soon do I have to make a decision? Right now. Amen. Okay,
so you're in. Amen. Sarcastic. Not at Sarcastic at all. You're in. Yeah. You. What the hell do the
two things have to do with each other?
I'll make up my own mind if I want the shot.
You don't have to pay me.
Keep it separate.
Good.
I'm okay.
Fair enough.
Kai, 1500 bucks.
Are you taking it?
Probably not.
So what's your split?
What's the not?
20% or is it?
No, it'd be a time-sake.
Like if I could take it a year from now
and I could kind of see
how today doing, I'm saying today.
Yeah, no, Kyle.
Is the 15 other time?
No, it's it's to you.
No taxes.
No taxes.
Vaccine.
You would think about it.
You think about it.
Would you take it?
Would you take it?
I'm already having to take it.
So might as well get.
So for you, if Obama's taking it, if Bush is taking it, let's just take it at you.
Ivana Trump's taking it, Ivanka.
This is, this is, this is Trump's doing, you know, we got to give Trump credit for it.
We're going to take this on TV and all this other stuff.
You how the hell do we know the difference between the shot and the placebo?
We know nothing on the shots and the placebo.
So I don't put a lot of weight in.
I'm like, you think they're going to fake, you think they're going to fake? By the way, just so nothing on the shots in the placebo. So I don't put a lot of weight in them. I'm like,
you think they're gonna fake?
By the way, just so you know, there's no way I'm having
the president's, if I'm the government
allowing the three presidents to take the real vaccine shot
on national television,
I would never let that happen if I'm the US government ever.
Really?
And if I'm running it, I would never,
what are you talking about?
There's a small percentage of reactions to, I would never, what are you talking about? There's a small percentage of a of
reactions to I would never make that kind of a reckless decision today. You know today the first shot started. Yeah, you
K nine year old lady. You K. Hey, can I ask you a question?
Yeah, don't down. Did they do this with polio with measles? Did they have to bribe people to take it? I mean, this is crazy. By the
way, if you're watching this thumbs up, yes, I would take your thumbs down. Hell no, I'm not taking it with the 1500 bucks. I'm
If you're watching this thumbs up, yes, I would take your thumbs down. Hell no, I'm not taking it with the 1500 bucks.
I'm a smashed a thumbs up.
If you say, I'm looking at it right now, we got 440 thumbs up.
We got 16 thumbs down.
Smash thumbs up if you would take it for 1500 bucks, smash thumbs down if the 1500 bucks
wouldn't make any difference for you.
This thing makes me sick to be honest with you because everything is politicized now.
There isn't one part of your life that isn't politicized, sports, entertainment, culture, going out to dinner. There isn't one
aspect of your life. You can't escape it anyway. And now the government is involved in paying you
to take a shot. This makes no sense. And who are you, Delaney? What, I've never heard of you.
Why are you? You ran for president. I know we did. And I've never heard of them. You know who he
looks like? Jefferson, Princess bride and Vegas vacation.
Um, I pull up the comparison shot there.
He's got it.
I told you who he looks like.
He looks just like John Delaney.
Wall is Sean.
The guy that was the blackjack dealer in Vegas,
Vagus vacation, changing 500.
That guy.
Can you see him?
You know what I'm talking about?
That's John Delaney right there.
Oh, dude, you just did John Delaney dirty.
No, I did it, man. Look at the lady. Princess bride. That guy killed it. That's John Delaney right there. Oh, dude, you just did John Delaney dirty. No, I did it, man.
Look at the lady.
Princess, right, that guy killed it.
That's, you tell me that's not him.
That, that look like him.
But that does kind of look like it.
Yeah.
Go to the other one.
Yeah, I want to take advice from him.
Yeah, no, thank you.
Okay, I can see some of that.
Anyway, so.
Seriously, what do they have to do with each other?
Look, you don't, A, obviously this hasn't passed yet.
B, you could say, look, I'm good. I don't need to do this. But if you were going to take the
vaccine anyway and they're going to give you 1,500 bucks, you just won the jackpot. There
it is. I mean, not a bad show. So you don't get the stimulus if you don't take the shot.
Is that what this proposal is? No, no, no, no, no, he's saying, he's saying as a one-time
stimulus check, I'm going to give you 1,500 bucks to take it.
Henry Leonardo just gave five bucks and it says, it's all crap.
I think he wonders a crap.
Those presidents or politicians who tell you that they're even taking a real thing.
I'd only take it because I travel.
That's what he said.
Okay.
I don't take good, you know, good point.
If they're going to prevent you from not being able to travel
You know you will take it. You know what can I make one quick point? I think the masks really help
Preventing colds. I've gotten cold a wear mask every day
I think there is some benefit to wearing the mask
Hold especially if you travel a lot. I just a random thought. I thought you were an anti-masker
I'm not the anti-masker.
I mean, we're in a pandemic.
I think it makes sense to wear the mask without a doubt.
Tom, I'm not like, where, you're flipping on me, bro.
Well, look, I'm a good test case.
You're because all I'm on up on,
I'm like, you're like, I don't even know who you are anymore.
I thought you were this right-wing extremist, like,
no, I'm like, unreasonable.
Like, now you're this mask guy.
You're, you're sleeping in Airbnb
you're like take it from here Adam I can't even do this anymore Tom I don't
know who you are anymore buddy Shonda is rubbing off on you that's what's going on
man I'm gonna cold I think there's some benefit to it.
Ladies and gentlemen Tom just came out and said mask work this is amazing this is
on so can we talk about a couple of things
that just came up with, let's stay on that Miami thing
because Silicon Valley elites are moving to Miami,
but VCs told the mayor that a state law needs to change
before they would relocate.
So we talked about earlier companies from New York
relocating to Miami, right?
We talked about Goldman Sachs, Carl Icon,
some of those guys, right?
And one of them moving to
Palm Beach, the $41 billion hedge fund, what's his name?
Paul Singer, no, no, Paul Singer, $41 billion moving his stuff to Palm Beach. But here's an issue with Miami.
And Miami Mayor, you've interviewed him before. Yeah, the mayor of Miami spent at least
least part of the weekend on Twitter trying to convince Silicon Valley tech workers and investors to hang up their fleas vests and move to South
Florida's growing tech hub.
Tech's migration to Miami has been happening for a while now that while Reddit co-founder
Alexis O'Hanion making the move to South Florida a few years ago, but it's picked up steam
as more people work from home particularly during the pandemic.
But even as tech investors,
depart for Miami, follow migration hinges
on the city's ability to track top companies' talents.
And candidates might not come as long as state
allows companies to use non-compete agreements.
A non-compete is part of an employment contract
where the worker agrees they won't take a job
as a competitor and start a rival business
for some time after
leaving a company.
So there's an issue with that in Florida for non-competed agreements.
Yeah, do they have that in Texas?
They in Texas?
No, you're fine in Texas, but in California is an issue.
It's not an issue.
Non-competed is a, doesn't have a lot of weight in California.
In California.
No, but it doesn't mind me.
It's huge.
Or Florida's huge.
Yeah, that's the whole point of the story, right? Yeah, that's the whole point of the story, right?
So these guys are talking about that's kind of hurting us, you know, all the other stuff.
So what do you know about it?
I know you were just talking to us.
I tried to get mayor friends as far as on the phone this morning.
He was busy, but I was speaking with his communications department.
We can get him on when, when, when we'd like, um, a couple of different things going
on here.
Number one was the Miami was the number one top city
for small business in 2019.
So they've laid the groundwork for being very small business
friendly, very entrepreneur friendly, low taxes,
you know, sunny weather, all that going on.
Mayor Francis Wars is leading the charge on this.
For someone who's lived and worked in Miami,
I can tell you the non-competit is a very big deal.
Like it's I thought that there was sort of a universal thing,
but this is a very Florida centric policy apparently,
and that's something that's gonna have to be rectified
if all these big waves and Silicon Valley type people
are considering moving to Florida,
and specifically South Florida,
no one's moving to the panhandle.
Panhandle.
But in that tweet, I don't know if we want to pull that up, Kai, if you have that, he said, let's talk, let's talk about this. So he's open to this. I mean, if there's somebody who is
business-friendly, entrepreneurial driven and willing to, to wheel and deal and make business
happen, it's this guy right here, Francis, where shout out to you, Francis. He said, how can I help?
it's this guy right here, Francis Warro, shout out to you, Francis.
He said, how can I help DM me?
He's sliding his DM.
I'd be happy to DM me and we'll set it up.
So I did not know that this was such a non big deal in California. It is a big deal in Florida.
Everyone who's considering moving jobs asks about a non compete, but in California,
I guess you can just kind of come and go as you please.
We'll see what they can do.
I read some of this thread.
It's interesting.
He really does interact with these tech people in Silicon Valley.
A couple of things.
Number one, if you're super rich, at some point you want to have some fun.
There is no fun to be had in Silicon Valley.
These guys want to get the hell out of there.
They want the hot chicks.
They want to have fun.
I think that drives a lot of this.
I think they're bored.
The other thing is, how can not some of these engineers and really smart tech people in
Silicon Valley be a little bit more on the conservative
side than these radical lefts that are running the social media giants out there.
I mean, at some point you can't agree with everything that that company does and you
want to first start somewhere else.
Third thing is, if there is a serious issue with the non-competent Florida, Ron DeSantis
will fix it.
I mean, that gets a smart governor.
He's five steps ahead of everybody else.
If it means more business for the state of Florida, and in this case, a lot more and an a lot more revenue, he'll change it. Watch
for that to be changed in a couple years. Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised either. But he's
a guy that's also wanting to run in the future. He's a guy that's a very ambitious to want
to run for office. Yeah. And he's already said I will never do a lockdown. He's already
put forth legislation that will make it a huge felony to riot anywhere in Florida as well.
So look what's happening right now.
I've been saying this now for a while.
If California and Texas had a baby,
the baby's name would be what?
Florida.
That's simple.
You take the best of California,
you take the best of Texas,
you combine it to get it got Florida.
If I was the governor of Florida,
if I was the governor of Florida,
I would out-recruit the governor of Texas, like never before. If I was the governor of Florida, I would out-recruit the governor of Texas, like never before.
If I was the governor of Florida, I would out-recruit.
I'm surprised that Florida doesn't out-recruit Texas.
I am so surprised that Florida doesn't out-recruit Texas to get the business to move to Florida.
They have more to offer than Texas does when you think, I know a lot of people disagree
with this, but between those two states, you got the top two states competing Nevada's kind of tough
Yeah, Nevada's kind of tough to be recruiting to Nevada. I get that it's a good place to be a lot of Californians are going there
But I think Florida is gonna be
Especially with what's going on right now?
A lot of these guys going from cuz typically California when they leave they go away
They go Nevada or they go to Texas. Yep New York
Typically sure exactly or Arizona, but now Cal allohanians going from They go Nevada or they go to Texas. Yeah, New York, the New York, the New York. Exactly. Or Arizona.
But now Cal, O'Honey has gone from Silicon Valley, think about where Silicon Valley is
all the way to the complete corner.
That's where they're going.
They're changing corners from one end to the other.
So, yeah, exactly.
Do you think, do you think part, I mean, these guys are smart.
The Sandes is smart.
So is Abbott.
These are smart governors that know what they're doing.
Do you think there's a little bit of them that are thinking, if I recruit too much,
it could flip my state a little bit.
I mean, if you look at Arizona,
the influx of Californians into Arizona
has had an impact on how that state votes.
But that's a different recruiting.
That's a different recruiting than it is
for recruiting like Nevada and recruiting like,
like I was thinking about going to Arizona for a long time.
So I went to Phoenix.
Okay.
We went and looked at homes on Phoenix.
It was a place, I don't know what it's called.
It's a paradise valley.
Paradise valley.
I talked about it, right?
No, but I knew that's where you'd be.
The community only plays you.
We went to this place and by the way, no,
I mean, it's like a beautiful place.
You go to this community, you're gonna get a home
for like four million dollars, okay?
But you get the home for four million dollars.
They go pick up your groceries for you.
You simply call the concierge.
You live in a community.
They go pick up your groceries for you.
They have a spa in the community.
They have massages in the community.
They have everything in the community.
So you, and then you have your own house,
get a community, get a house,
and a get a community.
The place was beautiful.
And then I came back and said,
why would I go to Phoenix?
What for?
What am I gonna go there for?
If I'm a golfer, I get it.
If I got someone, I get it.
But if I have a choice between them and Nevada,
why would I go Phoenix over going to Nevada?
I'm not gonna have to pay the tax if I go to,
the taxes if I go to Nevada.
So what Phoenix is attracting is different
than what Nevada's attracting.
Phoenix is attracting middle America
because it's cheaper to go there.
Let me go there. What Nevada attracted is business owners. By the way, the whole Tony
Shade story like Zappos went there and his move was to move Zappos to headquarters being
there. A lot of businesses moved to Nevada because of taxes. This is different. Phoenix
is very different than Nevada, Texas and Florida.
Quick shout out Chris Puckett donated five bucks.
He says, I've worked for Google, Facebook, and Yahoo, couldn't have done that with a ridiculous
non-compete.
Silicon Valley would not exist without this.
To eliminate the non-compete.
Exactly.
You're saying it wouldn't happen.
You know, those governors have to be like big-time football coaches, the way they recruit.
Man, just all out warfare.
I'm just going for it.
Good analogy.
I actually agree with Tom. You've used the word recruit, recruit, recruit. I
mean, that's what you do in your business. But I've never really heard governors recruiting
until I started, you know, here and you say it so often. How was in the state of California?
Yeah. Exactly. Perry was coming to California recruiting businesses. Rick Perry got on
the radio saying, if you run a business
in the state of California, and you're sick of the politics, you sick of the regulation,
you're sick of the taxes, call me at this number.
Did that really figure it for you?
You, well, then who we met with him, we sat down with Perry. He took us to a rangers
game. We spent a whole day with him. We spent with time with him in Nolorine and Don Nelson,
Don Nelson son, Donnie Nelson.
Yeah, and we sat in the box and Perry sat down with my wife,
Jen, and talked to him in Nolan Ryan.
Jennifer used to play softball with the Nolan Ryan's daughter.
So next thing, you know, we're sitting there
having a conversation together.
Then we met with Mayor Maso of Frisco,
who was the Frisco is the fastest growing city in America.
It was a three term mayor.
I think he was, if we're like eight or 12 years,
crush on a nine years.
Cowboys have their physical.
That's right.
That's right.
And then PGA moved to Frisco, by the way.
PGA headquarters officially in Am Frisco.
And then we're like, wait a minute, this guy's a, and then when you come here to visit
Texas, you should have seen how they treated you.
They got gifts for our kids.
They knew our kids names Every single thing was detailed the way they recruited us to the state of Texas. It was beautifully done
I think Florida's missing an opportunity. I don't know Florida wants all the businesses to go there
But if they did Florida should have 10 more fortune 500 headquarters over there than they do right now
Why would you say that Florida wouldn't want the best? I don't know.
I don't know.
It's a purple state.
Why wouldn't you want more people to want to go there?
Yeah.
But I think the emphasis has got to be on recruiting talent.
By the way, you know why Florida would also be great,
but I hear what I would focus on if I was a governor of Florida.
I would focus on businesses, fortune 500 businesses,
that do a lot of business with Europe and international.
Well, Latin America.
That's the gateway to Latin America as well.
So what I'm saying is Europe.
Europe.
There's a big difference between being in Dallas to go to London.
Yes.
Then it is to go from Fort Lauderdale to go to London.
Right.
That's why you do your city, you go to where?
London, boom, easy flight, right?
La Guaria or any of those airports you go over there, okay?
Florida has that opportunity.
Those types of fortune 500 companies are moving
to Florida. Easy. Boom. Take a flag in Europe. Why wouldn't you do that? So, anyways, I think
Florida's got a big opportunity for recruiting if they capitalize on it, but we'll see what's
going to happen. Here's an idea. We got to look into this Florida thing.
Florida. Just we got to look into Florida. It sounds like a nice place to maybe as a possibility
of moving to Florida. Yeah, we got to look into that. I would consider it very, very seriously.
Consideration of Florida. I got a contact.
I know the challenge with you is the one challenge we have with you is we were talking about
this this weekend. Adam for whatever reason is in love with the night clubs and at us.
Adam is like.
Oh my god.
The place that he goes.
And the dirty brunette.
I cannot believe the gecko.
The gecko weddings.
You guys went to wait.
We go to the gecko.
Shout out to the cafe gecko.
You know what the probably isn't good at life in Addison at the at the at the millionaire club
or something when some of these private jets land.
That's where you need to be party.
No, well, you can see me at Bodega or club live in Miami.
That's about it.
All right.
So let's think there's an age limit when you're no longer want to go to night clubs.
I've hit it going.
Tom, you hit that like 15 years ago.
Well, I'm older than you.
So I probably did hit it 15 years ago where the thought of going to a night club is just
like too much work.
Adam's the other way around the thought of not going to the night club.
It's miserable.
I don't get to a nightclub in the next
item is here seven days a week.
Is that an I'm gonna freak out?
I don't just like the idea of walking up
with that gate, the velvet rope opening for him.
Did you say walking in with the with the
Hungarian? What was that?
No, he's a special code word to get in the
heart. You know, you know how you know how
you're if you're South Beach royalty.
If you could walk up and you could be like,
Hey, look at these 25 Hungarian guys there with me. They're going to come. They're going
to come in the club. If you can get a bunch of dudes in the club, Adam has me. If you
spell orgy with a Y or an IE, I had a correct one. I knew. So Tom knew. Tom knew. I'm trying
to set me up. Buddy. You know, yeah, you wrote that story. All right. So let's go.
I'm going to be more excited right now. Let's go.
By the way, pull up AOC sweater.
We got, we got to get this to people.
You guys got to order this sweater.
You guys got to order this sweater.
I mean, here's AOC saying tax the rich selling a $18 sweater for $58.
Yeah.
Talk about hypocrisy.
That's ridiculous.
Do you see this?
Let me get to straight.
So you say tax the rich, this sweater, no joke. Yeah. This sweater is
an $18 sweater. Is the cheapest sweater you can potentially put on your Shopify store
to sell. And she's selling you for $58. Right. Tax the rich. You think low income middle
America is going to go out there and buy a $58 sweater. Kai. It's also sold out if you look.
All of them are sold out.
But the point I'm trying to make to is the following.
Our community is supporting a $58 sweater.
I have an idea.
Tell me.
I have an idea.
We come out with a sweater.
VT logo on the bottom.
It says tax the bitch.
They know who it means.
They tax the bitch. They know who it means. They tax the bitch.
Vitement and, um, oh, what would we charge for that sweater by the way?
12 bucks. 58 bucks. Let's see. Let's see who, uh, I'd like to know.
No, no, we should put 5799. We should.
It's undercut.
Undercut.
Hey, does anything scream democracy more than this?
She's selling a t-shirt. She's branding or a sweatshirt, she's branding it with her initials
for God's sake.
And she's, I'd like to see that debate that you're putting together.
I know you're working on this.
I would easily do.
You're working on a debate.
Can you reveal it?
I mean, I would love if you should.
Should I reveal it?
You want to reveal it?
If people want to go on Twitter and say this, I would see if the audience would be down
for this.
So Pat, how many guys would like to see a debate between AOC and Candace Owens?
Imagine a debate between AOC and Candace Owens, okay?
And we do it paper view style.
AOC, Candace Owens, they debate on the stage,
90 minutes, okay?
And there's a moderator and they go,
maybe it's got to be more than nine methods,
it's got to be like two hour debate. Well, there's around two. Yeah, round one round two potentially in the
We have moderators and others can ask questions. I
Would be willing to pay both Candace Owens and AOC each a hundred thousand dollars if they're willing to do that debate
I'll pay each a hundred thousand dollars if they want to do that debate. I have a feeling Candace Owens would do it without even thinking about it, but I have
a feeling AOC would turn it down.
I also think after the debate, in the Nate Robinson, Jake Paul, Logan Paul, Logan Paul,
and Floyd Merritt, I think they straight up fistfight afterwards.
We had another ring by Aaron D and Dale had had an idea.
They want you to reveal it though.
I don't know. I don't know. I'm gonna throw Byron under the bus here. Here you go, buddy.
Maybe they do some mud wrestling afterwards. That's just an idea that are good
out there. Is that the still a thing? We're gonna make it a thing.
We're gonna make mud wrestling great again. That's what we're gonna do, Tom, here on the
I got you, Tame. But you know, look, we have it. Like it's like a, it's like a
guy who would like to see that the bed. Who would actually like to see that? Debates, fights
100,000 actually in modern. AOC knows she would be exposed. She would be dressed down and
destroyed. What are the chances? Who's the favorite? Let me ask you. Oh, it's not even
a question. But you think Candace is the favorite? Okay. By the way, if you're watching this,
if Candace owns debates, AOC, who wins the debate?
Oh, I'm talking about the fight.
Oh, five.
No, that's a different story.
I think AOC, yeah, that's a different story.
She's from the streets.
Yeah.
So Candace owns AOC, who wins a debate?
Well, it's got to go round, per round, right?
It's a, what was the debate?
Tell me who wins it.
I think Candace Owens probably has a better message.
Right?
Better message, but who do you think wins?
I think, look, I think that's gonna be pretty even Steven.
I think, I think, I think, I think, wow.
I think it's the good thing.
Can you order that shirt for him?
Yeah.
Or did that sweater for?
So I blame off you on AOC collab, come in the air.
Yeah.
I think if you did that, I think AOC would win the actual stuff.
Guys, thumbs up Candice Owens wins, thumbs down AOC wins. I think that's the biggest. I think AOC would win the actual guys thumbs up Candace Owens wins
thumbs down AOC wins.
I think the big Candace Owens thumbs on AOC.
The biggest problem you'd have is this was a two hour event that value payment was hosting.
What are you going to do for the other hour and 59 after AOC taps out after one minute.
She would want nothing to do with Candace Owens.
She would run and hide, but she could sell her sweatshirt.
She could wear that, you know, think the sales.
Be a good marketing brandy marketing branding idea for her.
Come on the value team and debate.
What did we get killed?
The question is, what would it take for him?
I'll buy sweaters.
That's his tax to rich.
Tax to rich.
Did you see what Candace Owen, who was it, Rihanna?
This guy, collab with Connections, put 10 bucks us.
I'll buy both sweaters, tax the bitch and tax the rich for 58 bucks each to watch the debate.
Nice.
I think we could pull this off.
I just don't think AOC would do the debate.
I don't either.
I don't think AOC would do the debate.
She sells sweaters, but won't do a debate.
No, I don't think she would do it.
Where do you see AOC in the next 10 years?
Ten years.
Running.
El Presidente.
Oh, yeah.
El Capone.
We need rock to beat her in the primary. This is a rock and AOC run together. He's the president. She's the vice president.
There's America vote for that. He would never do. There's America vote for that.
He would never do that. Why do you say that? Because he's not politically on the same side as AOC
is. But that's why he's bringing her for a big tent. Yeah, but he would not, he would not go
with that. Anyways, so let's skip through this.
By the way, some people said they think AOC would win the debate.
Surprisingly, so a lot of people said AOC would win the debate.
All these liberals are like,
Yeah, this is interesting.
A lot of people are putting a saying AOC would pull it off over a candid so-ons.
Okay, interesting.
I'd love to see that debate.
Again, I gave my off from probably gonna go tweeted on again
on Twitter as well.
And if anybody wants to retweet it,
I'd love to see that happen.
I think it'd be pay-per-view type of stuff.
And we can even do profit sharing for both of them.
Nice.
Literally, whatever we sell,
we would do profit sharing as well.
I'm very open to that.
Like a real socialist idea?
I would actually do a socialist idea and share. Yeah, we would do proper.
And when you tweet that and Snoop retweet you, you better tag pat. Oh, we would have a
snoop as a commentator. Snoop aloop. Bring your dreaming hat. So, so by the way, Logan
Paula may with us at a gun of fight each other. Snoop says, I'm ready. Who's winning that
fight? Who's winning that fight? What do you mean who's winning that fight? Oh my god. Look, let me put it
Logan Paul is 60 pounds bigger than that. Let me tell you another crazy prediction here Logan Paul is one day gonna run for office
I don't believe Logan Paul is
For people who under estimate a guy like Logan Paul you do not on that it's made guys like that the guy's brilliant
And he's a learning and he's young and he's got all that on.
He's 25 minutes to late 20s.
He's attractive.
His personality is attractive.
He's not afraid.
He likes the heat.
He likes, you know, he can get in there.
I think the guy's got a big upside in his life.
25 years old.
He's got a big upside in his life.
And brother too.
Jake is a little bit more, not at his level.
Okay, not at his level.
No, it's different personalities.
Jake's little too chippy.
Logan to me is a little bit more composed.
You're a fan.
But you know what I think?
I'm a fan of any, here's a mother that raises these two boys to do what they're doing for
some props to the mom to be able to do.
The other day Logan was celebrating, seeing his brother knocking out to Robinson.
I like seeing that.
I like those stories.
But I think this guy's got a big upside in life, a very big upside.
I okay lunch.
Why is that?
I bet on Nate Robinson.
I thought Nate Robinson is going to win too.
I think Jake can really fight.
I think that was impressive.
There's Tom goes again.
You can't agree with me.
You know what?
He warned Nate Robinson.
He says, do not let your children watch this.
Please, I'm begging you.
Do not let them watch their daddy be embarrassed. He was saying that before the fight, he says, do not let your children watch this. Please, I'm begging you, do not let them watch their daddy be embarrassed.
He was saying that before the fight, he was legit.
You know, if you look at the social media followers of Logan, I mean, he's got four YouTube
channels, one with 20 million plus, one with five million plus one.
Okay.
So, you know, these guys, there's an end game to this because making these videos is hard
work every day.
A big kid.
That's a lot of spend.
By the way, he's doing it with the vlog vlog.
Vlog is not easy.
Yeah. Here's the other thing. When you think about By the way, he's doing it with the vlog vlog. It's not easy. Yeah.
Here's the other thing.
When you think about the poll that these guys have, they grew up in Ohio.
They grew up in Cleveland, moved there.
Jake Paul was originally on a Disney show.
He tried to be a legit actor.
Then he was making so much money on social media.
So Dash, probably three, four years ago was watching Jake Paul YouTube videos until we
kind of saw him and said, hey, enough of this.
But he thought Jake Paul was the man, right?
So we found out where Jake Paul lived in West Hollywood.
He would live right behind Fred Seagulls.
So we went over there.
We would go to his house.
There was a crowd there every day just to just to see.
I mean, tourists from all over rivaling Hollywood Boulevard fans, a couple of times he'd
come out and people would go absolutely
bananas 24 hours a day, seven days a week, camped out at his house, security, the whole thing,
and people from all over the world.
These guys have an incredible pull, but this, this whole thing, just look at the marketing
behind this.
The pay-per-view numbers that they're going to get is going to be insane with his ability
to promote to his YouTube audience.
And the other thing I think is I think Floyd Mayweather will injure him if he wants to.
I mean, he has no idea what taking a Floyd Mayweather punch
is gonna be like in your face.
No, I hit him 10 times in the face
before Logan Paul even throws a punch.
Who will?
Mayweather?
Mayweather.
They're not in the same league.
But maybe there's one of the top 10 boxes of all time.
Yeah.
He thinks he's the greatest of all time.
I mean, Mike Tyson.
I also think this is the future of boxing.
There's no personalities in real boxing.
Look at it. We have to recycle Mike Tyson and Roy Jones Jr.
to get any sort of paper.
But, guys, be honest.
Do we not have fun that night?
I mean, it was seriously.
That was a pathetic fight we watched.
I mean, but we Tyson Jones, but we had a great time that night.
And that was such a sham that they called it a draw.
Yeah, I saved the lunch.
That was Vegas, though. That was all Vegas. You know, it's going to be Tyson and Holyfield

He's on the Trump's administration,
you know, talking about, you know, security
and what's going on with China.

You might not be able to get to the top. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no There it was right there. Article comes out talking about what China is working on.
Okay.
And when you go through this, it's pretty epic on what he explains.
I sent you two links, Kai, for you to pull up.
Okay, before you guys pull this up, I'm going to ask you, before you guys see this year,
I'm going to ask you, what do you think is the biggest enemy to US the next five to 10 years? What country is the number one enemy to US in the next five to 10 years? What do you think is the biggest enemy to US the next five to 10 years?
What country is the number one enemy to US in the next five to 10 years?
What do you think?
Do you think it's China? Do you also agree with that?
I think we're our own worst enemy number one, but then as far as a foreign enemy, it's China.
Okay, who's after China?
Who's after China?
As far as defense or as competition, as far as...
Give me any of it.
Give me any of it.
Russia's up there.
Russia's up there.
What? Defense or economy?
No defense defense Russia. I will say North Korea just because of the psycho. Okay, so recklessness is where you put up there
Okay, so what do you think Russia ranks in world economy GDP?
Not not in the top 50 maybe maybe not maybe not in the top 20 on the top 20s. What do you think Russia likes?
They're number 11, Russia's number 11.
Okay, do you have the link I sent you, Kai?
Okay, go to that one right there.
Go to that one right there.
Watch this here.
So this is the top GDP's worldwide.
Okay, this is from investor-pedia,
so it's not just any opinion.
US is number one, a US nominal GDP is 2.21.44 trillion.
Energy D.B. is the same, right?
But look at China, where China is at next.
Their GDP is 27.31 trillion dollars coming up.
China's experience, experience exponential growth
over the past few decades, breaking the barriers
of a century planned closed economy
to evolve into a manufacturing,
exporting cover of the world.
China is often referred to as the world's factory
given its huge manufacturing.
And they're projected to get there,
the way the numbers are going right now
to pass up US in the next handful of years.
Okay, they've already passed up in GDP,
not nominal, nominal GDP, US is ahead.
And then go to number three,
then you got Japan, then you got Germany, keep going down,
then you got India, who's coming up aggressively, then you got UK, then you got France, then
you have Italy, then you have Brazil, and then you have Canada.
You do not see what?
Russia in the top number, Russia's number 10, 4.21, number 11, 4.21 trillion.
Canada is ahead of, that's unbelievable.
That's unbelievable. California's way ahead of the point. Canada is ahead of, that's unbelievable.
California's way ahead of what I'm talking about.
That's the point.
Canada is ahead of Russia.
If you would have said that to somebody,
they would say, what are you talking about?
Now watch with China.
Do you know who has the largest Navy in the world right now?
China.
Do you know who has the largest Army in the world right now?
China.
Do you know what China is doing right now
with their military, with their soldiers?
They're putting jeans, they're putting a, what do you call it?
They're, they're testing their soldiers to become super soldiers.
China's doing that.
So not just their roles.
So not just their, not just their, they're testing their soldiers.
They're putting additional stuff into their soldiers for them to become, it's like
jean testing, they're doing with their soldiers for their soldiers to become super soldiers.
China's doing this.
Now watch what happens.
Yesterday, Tucker does a show talking about a video that went viral that was given by a professor of China
and he's given a message in China.
He's given this message in China.
China immediately take this video down.
But before they take the video down,
US gets a hold of it.
And they translate what the speaker had to say.
First of all, pull up the speaker,
pull up the video of his,
let me first explain who he is.
Go back to introducing who he is.
So what is at 913, go all the way to the beginning,
go all the way to the beginning.
Here's who he is.
Don Shank is the Vice Dean of the School
of International Relations, Renman University of China, Vice the vice dean of the School of International Relations,
Renman University of China, vice director and secretary of the center for foreign strategic
studies of China.
This talk was given what?
Maybe a week and a half ago, okay?
Say 10 days ago.
Can you go to the part that you want to say and maybe first put the speed at 1.25 because
he talks a little bit slow.
Okay, then keep it at 1.0.
Just stay with me here and try to read below because he's not speaking in English.
Adam, try to stay here on the bottom.
If you guys want, I can read it for you, but we'll go through this here together.
Look what he says.
Matter of fact, I want to read it so everybody can see it.
You can put it on the audio.
It's fine.
Hey, I just read an unf-
This guy.
By the way, he's becoming the next
Tyler Lopez of media every every time you watch
something he comes up.
Okay, just try to read it because it's tough if I read it
and go back a little bit.
Kai, did you put it on one point?
No, what speed do you have it on?
Leave it at one point.
No, no, one is too much.

其實就是說
我們在拜託
過去這個30年
過去40年
我們在美國
我們已經用了
在國際法院
美國的法院
在過去30年
過去我們講過
華爾街在70年
對美國它的內政外交友非常強調
那是很厲害的
所以我們有陸近一來
但問題是零八年之後華爾街的地位下降
更重要的是一六年之後華爾街搞了
華爾街可以不停地調整
川普以前有華爾街有過一次軟心違約
所以雙方有矛盾 Fix Trump. Trump, very out.
Trump had a default on Wall Street. So it's a conflict.
But I won't go into the election.
I mean, I'll have enough time.
During the US-China trade war, they Wall Street tried to help.
And I know that my friends in the US
said to me that they tried to help.
And I know that, but they couldn't do much.
But now, we see see Biden's on Thailand.
Another scene, Biden was elected.
By the way, guys, I'm translating all this.
I'm not really anything.
Go back.
This is not a joke.
Go back.
Pause it real quick.
This is the one thing I don't want to joke about on this podcast.
It's very, very important.
This party, you guys have to pay attention to what he's saying, okay?
But now we're seeing Biden was elected.
Just read the captions.
The traditional, the political elite, the establishment.
They're very close to Wall Street, so you see that, right?
Trump has been saying that Biden's son has some sort of global foundation.
Have you noticed that?
Who helped him Hunter Biden build the foundations? Got it?
There are all these deals and all this.
Okay, pause right there.
So, pause it.
Who's he talking about?
Got it? Who's he talking about?
He says, no, no.
This is...
This is talking about China.
We did.
We helped them.
Okay, so watch, continue.
We use an appropriate way to express some goodwill.
This is my personal understanding based on my limited professional background.
If we understand the matter for the perspective of the International Political Economy,
I think there is a tactical and political value in it. Opening the financial markets between China and the United States, now we are opening
the financial markets means major concession.
The purpose of opening up your financial markets is to hold tight to the big thigh of America,
you hold on the United States, Don't dump me in that case.
Can you understand it that way?
I understand it the other way around.
I happen to think that this could be another explosive theory.
I happen to think that opening the financial markets is precisely the sort of decoupling
of the United States.
We're opening up financial markets and that's exactly what
decoupling is in the sense why we're given
such a hard time in many of these places.
I just saw this.
I just saw this.
We're going to see this.
We're going to see this.
We're going to see this.
We're going to see this.
We're going to see this.
We're going to see this.
We're going to see this.
We're going to see this.
We're going to see this.
We're going to see this.
We're going to see this.
We're going to see this.
We're going to see this. We're going to see this. We're going to see this. We? Okay, so this is something you have to watch on your own because there's a part what he talks about
Saying we have people on the inside in Wall Street. We have people on the inside in politics
He says we have people on the inside all the way at the top of the US government
China does we have people on the inside at the top of the US government China does right then so if Wall Street
He says Trump was a problem for them. Trump got in the way for them.
Trump didn't help them out, but Biden's easy to deal with.
Biden's gonna be easier to deal with
because we're back to being able to do
what we wanted to do all these years.
Here's the problem.
Let me give you the problem here.
He validated what happened with Biden
and who helped them out.
The sky's validated it.
That took place and there was relations
between Biden and what he called it, China.
And this is...
Hunter Biden is...
Hunter Biden, of course, Biden and China.
Hunter Biden's not doing anything with China without Joe Biden.
Hunter Biden cannot do anything in China without his father, Joe Biden.
And he said that in interviews.
Hunter Biden asked the question, one one interview asked Biden a question saying,
do you think you would have been able to get this bortsy
without your father Hunter Biden's answer?
This isn't a live interview.
You know what he says?
Probably not.
What am I father?
Hunter Biden said this in an interview.
Okay.
Where am I going with this?
Here's where I'm going with this.
Let's just say,
China has a million and one different dirt on Biden.
Let's just say they do.
Let's assume they do.
Let's play that card.
If China has a lot of dirt on Biden,
if they do, how do you negotiate with Biden?
You use it against him.
Actually think about what I just said right there.
If China, who is growing the way they're growing right now,
and they're about, do you need water or are you good?
And they're about to be the number one GDP economy
in the world.
Their military is ridiculously grown.
For the longest time they keep saying,
we're not military, we're not military,
we're not military.
Now they're investing into their military.
They're gene testing their soldiers.
They have the biggest navy. Okay, they're doing all the stuff, they're gene testing their soldiers, they have the biggest navy,
okay, they're doing all the stuff that they're doing over there.
They're the best at bio warfare,
they're the best at cyber warfare,
they're the best at it,
they're going in that direction.
What happens if China has all the dirt on Biden?
So imagine behind closed doors,
how do negotiations go?
How do you negotiate with them?
What do you say?
Simplify, what do you say? Hey,
you know, I just want you to know. I interviewed this guy from the FBI. What was his name?
Whitehurst. Is it Whitehurst? Okay, so this is the only guy in the FBI that ever sued the FBI and
got a $1.4 million check. The only employee in the history of FBI that sued the FBI and
President Clinton got a $1.4 million check in 1993. He's the only guy that's ever done it successfully, okay? And he got ousted.
I said, who's the most powerful person in politics? John F Kennedy, remember when I questioned
I said, John F Kennedy, J. Edgar Hoover or Damafia. He says, oh, J. Edgar Hoover. He says,
FBI is the most powerful organization in America, more than the president.
That's a really day.
Yeah.
I said, how did they do it?
He says, here's how we do it.
He says, you're going to just say, look, you know, like, you know, you got to do this.
You know, you know what I mean, you know.
Don't even have to say it.
You got to do this, you know what I'm saying.
So he says, that's what we say, and they know.
And they have to do exactly what we want them to do because they know we know.
You think China is going to use that card against Biden behind closed doors to saying, hey,
Joe, you know, we know.
So we kind of need you to do.
Sure.
Do this.
Do you think that's what's going to happen?
I think it's already happening, probably with how we stack in his cabinet with a little
help from China.
You have to keep that part of mind, man.
This is the kind of stuff because now here's the other part.
You know what's the other part?
How long does it take you to do research on somebody online who's pretty active
on social media to know which way they lean politically?
How much time?
Not 10 minutes.
I'm being serious with everybody.
Not long.
How long will it take you to research somebody on like, you know, could be a minute? Could be a minute. Okay, I agree with you. Could be a minute. Okay, fair enough.
How much can you learn about anybody if you know their enemy?
I mean, you can learn a lot. What can you learn about them? How long can you learn about anybody
if you can learn who their number one enemy is? I see where we're going with this. Okay,
so where am I going with this? Here's where I'm going with this.
In the next three, six, 12 months,
you know what mainstream media,
I project, predict is gonna do.
Here's what they're gonna do.
Mainstream media is about to sell us
who the real enemy is
over the next four years
under Biden administration.
And I don't think they're gonna sell China
for being a number one enemy.
I think they're gonna make Russia the number one enemy,
potentially Iran, which Iran is an enemy.
I don't know if they're a number one enemy
because Iran reports to who?
To China.
Okay, don't forget that.
China is bailing out Iran.
China is investing into Iran,
which means Iran owes who a China favor.
Okay, China's playing Africa? China's favor, okay.
China's playing Africa.
China's playing everybody right now is what they're doing, because they have money.
They're playing everybody right now.
Media is going to try to sell us that somebody else is the enemy.
Russia's not a top 10 economy.
Russia's not a top 10 economy.
If you just saw the list right there, it's not going to be any of those guys.
China is ahead so far, it's not going to be any of those guys. China is ahead so far.
It's not even funny what they can do today.
And this is just getting started.
They're just getting warmed up.
The momentum that was going on when people say, why are you supporting a trumpets and
trumpets?
I said, dude, I don't support a trumpets trumpets.
What I support it was one thing.
I wanted to see how China was going to react if we went with the sanctions in the terrorists
for four more years.
I wanted to see what was going to happen to Iran if you went with the sanctions in the
terrorists for a couple more years.
That's what I wanted to see.
Because there's one person they couldn't negotiate with and it was Trump.
They couldn't buy him out. He was a one guy they couldn't negotiate with and it was Trump. They couldn't buy him out.
He wasn't, he was the one guy they couldn't buy out.
Now, I hope I'm 100% wrong.
I hope I'm 100% wrong.
I hope I'm 100% wrong about all of this.
But if I'm not, China's gonna make a lot of advancement
in next four years because they're gonna be able to ask
and say, hey, Joe, just so you know, you know we know, right?
Yes.
We need you to put this person on your administration.
Joe, you know we know, right?
We need this person to get a job at FBI.
Hey, you know we know, right?
This person needs to-
What do you think they know?
What do I think they know?
What do you mean?
What do I think they know?
If they have done all the business dealings with China,
if they have done all the business dealings with China, the Biden family, guess what they know? All the business dealings with China, if they have done all the business dealings
with China, the Biden family,
guess what they know, all the business dealings
they did with China that would have heard them
in the election, and they can say,
we will release everything and ruin your life.
And if you don't think we know more,
we know everything about your son.
You know what happened the other day,
Facebook got caught, did you guys hear
about what Facebook got caught with?
Okay, kind of just type in on Google Facebook camera Instagram. Do you guys hear about what Facebook got caught with? Okay. Kai, just type in on Google Facebook camera Instagram.
Did you guys hear about this or no?
Yeah, a little bit.
Okay, Facebook Instagram camera.
Okay, Facebook Instagram camera.
Okay, this should be a couple days ago.
And go to news, go to news.
Oh, I'm just going to miss a little market.
I'm just going to miss a little market.
Facebook is looking at the fresh, which has lost it from 40 different states. Okay. Go to news. Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, Scott even deeper in the last few days. Read the story though. So Facebook is being sued again
for allegedly spying on Instagram users.
This time through unauthorized use
of their mobile phone cameras.
So think about this.
You're sitting in the bathroom,
you're on your Instagram account,
you're checking everybody else's picture.
They're watching you.
While you're laying next to your girl,
while you're on Instagram.
You're laying in bed next to your girl,
and you're on your Instagram,
and you're showing her a picture, they're watching you.
You know what they said?
Oh, it was a glitch.
It wasn't intentional, it was accidental,
that this happened.
Okay.
I used to be the guy that would be like,
oh, come on, guys, when people put a stick
over here on the camera,
you know what the camera I'm talking about?
Everybody would, you remember when Apple back in the days,
they would say, put a stick over there,
people are watching, I said,
are you out of your mind? I'd be the first one would say, put the stick over there, people are watching, are you out of your mind?
I'd be the first one to say,
what is wrong with you?
You know, lawsuit Bloomberg.
This is not an opinion.
This is lawsuit Bloomberg, right?
Okay, this stuff is happening.
A lot of these conspiracy theories
that we thought were conspiracy theories
are not becoming conspiracy theories, they're becoming factual.
So if China has access to the best hackers in the world, what do you think they have
on their cameras? What do they have access on their cameras? Do you think they can tap into
Hunter Biden who's constantly losing his laptops, left and right leaving him behind? What do you
think they have access to? Let me tell you, when Jay at Groover would go and talk to John
of Kennedy and Bobby and would say, hey, we just want you to know this is what we got.
In a mafia who had control over Hoover,
they went to Hoover and they said,
hey, we know you're a cross-dresser
because back in the days, that was a big deal for a judge.
It's not today's times.
We talked about years ago.
They say, here's what we know you do, J. Edgar Hoover.
If you ever talk about the mafia, we're gonna have a problem.
So back then, they played the same game,
Hoover played against Kennedy, the mob played against
two. Hoover. Yeah. China is about to play that card against Biden. If they do, buddy,
this isn't about you and I anymore. This is about fundamentally what they're going to
try to do to the idea of America because there are some China is one of the most competitive
groups of people and they want to beat the number
one country in the last 150 years.
And that's US.
Yep.
And they're also patient and they're also strategic.
And they also have the media on their side here because CNN has already come out and said
that they ignored the Hunter Biden story, which goes along the lines of I honestly think
in Adams going to jump all over me again, I don't think Joe Biden wanted to win this election personally because I think he's smart enough
to know what's out there, what can be revealed in all this. And that's why I think he'll kind
of fade away. But you know, the difference between China and the US, again, is we think
the R enemy is the other side. You know, the Republicans think the enemy is the left.
The left thinks the enemy is the right. We spend 50% of our time fighting amongst ourselves when we should be putting
all our time into looking what's happening at the people that really do hate us and do
want to take what we have and do want to change us and that is going to be our undoing. And
it's starting to happen. And then when you have a complicit media and a complicit social
media and especially something that can be manipulated by our real enemies,
we've got real problems. Obviously, I think Joe Biden wanted to win. I don't think you'd do all this
to not win. Ironically, you use Joe Biden's go-to quote that we are not the enemies of each other.
We need to come together whether you're on the left of the right. We're all Americans. That whole thing.
Blue State Red State.
Clearly China is a major issue.
Clearly.
If they truly did, and I'm not saying that they don't, I'm asking a question here, if they truly
did have something on him, why would he run?
Meaning he has to know, like as much as you want to say.
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
Okay.
Wait, okay.
If he did something, if he did something, then you missed everything I just said. That, wait, wait, wait. Okay. Wait. Okay. If he did something illegal, yeah. If he did something,
then you missed everything I just said.
That's not, not, not,
obviously I heard everything.
You missed everything I just said.
Okay. What did I miss?
So I asked the question again.
Why would he run?
Why would he run?
Okay.
Did you just miss everything I just said?
No, Pat.
But ask your question.
You're saying that he's a pawn for China.
Wait a minute.
If you're saying why would he run
if they know everything, you know, because you're saying he's a pawn for China. Wait a minute. If you're saying why would he run if they know everything, you know, because...
You're saying he's a pawn for China?
Because they can tell you you better run.
We don't worry, you will win.
Look, we're at a point right now.
Is it fair to say that?
Is it fair to say that?
Are you going deep with us?
No, I'm not going deep with this.
Is it fair to say?
At this point of the game,
is it fair to say that America's meddled
in a lot of other country's elections? They say that. Yes or no. They say that.
No, we can't sit here and be like, I'm not sitting here being naive and a fool about
it. Is it fair to say it's not there is talk. There's proof. Okay. There's proof that
there's been America's meddled in other countries elections. Okay, because America said,
I think that's a good. The reason why other countries cannot stand America sometimes is why. Power. Cause we've metal. Cause we metal. Okay.
Do you think Russia's metal than other people's elections? For sure. Do you think China's
metal than other people's elections? Do you think Iran's metal than other people's elections?
Quite frankly, what do you need to metal in other people's elections? Actually, what ability
do you need? It's one ability. What is the information?
Information and hackers.
You need proper hackers and proper digital marketing guys.
These days.
Yeah, I mean, you hired a 2000, that was not.
But there was a different method of doing it back then.
Today's a lot easier to do.
You need some 22 year old kids who understand Facebook codes.
You need some guys who are 18 year old kids behind closed doors who know how to hack into
the Pentagon system.
It's not that complicated for these guys.
It's very easy for them.
Very easy.
You know how you play basketball in the effortless and all this stuff you do.
It's very easy for them.
Effortless.
They can hack into any system they want.
It's easy for them.
So when you say, if this is the case, why would Biden want to run?
You miss everything I just said.
They would want if you're China, think like China,
think like the enemy, actually think like the enemy.
Let's think like the enemy.
Your China, it's 2018.
This crazy competitive guy who's not afraid of you
says, I'm putting tariffs on you.
This guy that says, if you don't do XYZ,
I'm putting sanctions.
This guy out of nowhere comes out and says,
wait a minute, you had Huawei,
CFO, daughter in Canada doing deals with Iran,
and I told you not to do business with anyone
with what he called it Iran.
Huawei, you decide to do that.
The CFO, the daughter, she gets arrested, no problem.
Sanctions on Huawei, sanctions on China, sanctions on Iran.
And if anybody does business with Iran, you can't do anything with US.
22 countries, or give or take, say, Iran, we can't do any business with you.
Iran takes a massive gas prices, go up.
Government of Iran says for one day gas prices are going to be this much.
Just protesting in the streets because Iran can not drive.
We have to do what we have to do.
You know how hated Trump was for what he did.
So now you're China, and we're the enemy.
The three of us are representing China.
Imagine we're on China's board.
The three of us, we're strategic.
No one knows about us.
Behind the closed half of speakers,
we don't want any attention.
We're strategists.
How do you, what list, think, think like your China and your behind closed doors.
How do you take that America to become number one?
Who's the number one enemy you have now that you got to get rid of?
Trump.
Trump.
Trump.
Trump.
Trump.
Trump.
How do you get rid of them?
We know how to do it.
How do we get rid of them?
Who owes us the most favors?
Who do we have the most third on?
Biden.
There you go, buddy.
It's not just Biden, but it's a list of people.
He's one of them.
We go from the top and you work your way down.
And typically, you need to have the people at the top
that owe you the biggest favors
who has the most influence,
because that's the easiest ones to go through.
By the way, you sit there and you're thinking,
like, I think I want to be right,
I'm hoping I'm 100% wrong. I don't think I be right, I'm hoping I'm 100% wrong.
I don't think I'm wrong.
I'm hoping I'm 100% wrong.
But this is the dirty part about politics
that you deal with this.
So you think from 2019 beyond even,
because Biden was considering running in 2016
when Hillary kind of boxed them out at that point.
You remember that? Yeah. He was thinking about running back then. Okay.
Huh?
Timing wasn't good for him. But yeah. But there's conversation behind
closers where Obama's won a sat down with Biden said it's Clinton's turn.
Yeah. You can run next, but right now let's call it.
But so in those four years, before he ran, you're saying that's when the shady dealings likely occurred.
No, that's not what I'm saying.
The shady dealings been going on for a while.
What I'm even while he was vice president.
What are you talking about?
That's the whole thing with Hunter.
What was caught as he was getting favors when Biden was the VP.
I thought a lot of that was in Ukraine, China as well, you're saying?
Of course.
Hunter was taking advantage of his last name, being Biden.
But this is the part.
So if he's fearful of these stories being leaked, like, we're leaking it right now.
Who's there to know right now?
People are talking, we're talking about it.
But there's a big difference between you saying, I think Johnny hooked up with Mary versus Mary
coming out and saying he hooked up with me.
Gotcha.
Okay.
Mary is China.
The smoke and gun.
Yeah.
Mary's China.
Mary's gonna come out and say he did hook up with us.
And if Biden would have, let's say hypothetically lost, right?
Like he just taken you back to 2019. He didn he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he, he Bernie Sanders cannot be bought by China. Okay, that's my point. You're saying that China...
China didn't want Bernie Sanders.
China doesn't want a little bit of war and a peed Buttigieg.
These are no bodies.
To them, China wants Hillary, China wants Biden, China wants, huh?
They want the political elite.
They don't want any of these other guys.
Can you imagine what an easy mark Hunter Biden was for China?
I mean, a guy that just is morally compromised where you could just throw easy money at him
and you own him.
Because you would think at some point Hunter Biden would think, man, this is a little
bit too good to be true.
These boards really want me sitting on them and collecting this type of check.
There has to be something else involved.
It's unbelievable how much info they probably have on him.
Played right into it. Look, you know, yeah, it's it's the stories are this is nothing new.
Churchill was the most hated guy in UK. But even the people at the top who hated Churchill
knew there was only one guy that could go up against Hitler.
It was only Churchill.
Let me say that one more time.
Churchill was hated.
He was hated tremendously.
He was an obnoxious guy.
He was annoying.
He was Trump's time.
He was a hundred.
You have to realize Churchill was a true believer at the highest level.
The stuff that this guy did at a young age, how many books did he write?
How many things?
The things Churchill accomplished
in his lifetime?
There's a very few people that are at his level, by the way.
Very few people.
And he was cocky, he was arrogant, he was confident,
he was every single word about an annoying person
he can put up.
Churchill was Trump times 10.
This what Churchill was.
But they knew only one guy could go up against Hitler and it was him.
And what happened?
Save the country.
We'd be talking German right now, you and I.
Our language would be German right now.
With Cassie Schruetz and that whole crew.
Exactly.
That's the point.
The Germans, you know, they would be ruling the world today.
If it wasn't for Godlike Churchill.
So you have to be very careful with personalities like him, like a Trump. You have to be very careful with personalities like him, like a Trump.
You have to be very careful with personalities like him
to not emotionally dislike parts.
It's such a hard, yes, that I'm doing an interview
with this girl, drop that girl,
just girl was trying to introduce her to you.
Like this girl, you guys gonna.
Oh, would you hook me up?
No, she had a boyfriend already.
I'm like, I want to introduce her to you.
So she's interviewing me.
I think she's out of Canada, Toronto.
I think her name is Mariano or something like that, right?
And she's interviewing me and she asks a question.
She says, she says, how do you make your decisions
with being able to be reasonable
without letting your emotions get involved?
Number one question I ask you.
What she cheesed you up right into your wheel.
I thought like she had talked to you or something.
Like do you hang out with Adam?
Obviously not.
But so, so, so she says this question.
I'm like, okay, it is very like for me.
Listen, I did not like when Obama came out with Obama here.
I didn't like it.
The reason why I didn't like is because it was forced.
If we were to wait a year later, we could have possibly had both sides
and had a different kind of a program.
It was forced.
Let's get it through.
Let's get it through.
It's not going to be taxing and all of a program. It was forced. Let's get it through, let's get it through. It's not gonna be taxing on all of a sudden,
health insurance industry gone.
My insurance for the employees went up to the roof,
40% won, you're 40% next, you're 40% next, I'm not gonna do it.
This is ridiculous what we have to pay to employees.
But I won't sit there and say,
Obama doesn't know how to play the game of politics.
I wouldn't say Obama's not suave.
I can set aside policies versus personality.
Trump's personality can be annoying.
Trump's personality can be very frustrating.
Trump's personality can be unattractive.
This guy thinks he's better than you
and everything he does in his life.
If Trump played you in basketball,
he would probably think he's better than you.
He probably thinks he's gonna be better than you, man.
That's Trump's mindset.
It's unattractive to a lot of people on the opposite side, right?
But at the same time, you want somebody
going up against China?
Who do you want going up against China?
If you got the number one enemy in the world being China,
who do you want going up against them?
What kind of a personality do you want going up against them?
Somebody that China fears or somebody that China thinks
they can get anything out of. That's strategic questions. You know, those are things that you have
to sit there and think about and say, well, you know, I don't know. You know, I may want
to have this guy go out there and sit down and have those conversations with me. Anyways,
what do you think they're gearing up their military for? Japan, oh, just owning that
part of the globe. I'll come along over over. South China Sea, I was obviously a big thing
that they're concerned about building.
I think they built the island.
Listen, why do you buy life insurance policy?
Because you're planning on killing yourself next day?
No, why do we buy our insurance?
Because we're trying to go into a car accident next day?
Just in case.
There is just the just in case that you are.
It's just to tell you, okay, come on, come on.
Come on, you want to go?
Let's go.
Come on, US, come on, see what we got.
See what we got, test us,
and then see what's gonna take place.
Very bit yesterday I interviewed Saddam Hussein Sun's double.
For real?
Body double.
Yeah, yesterday I never said Saddam Hussein Sun's double.
Uday, I don't know if you remember,
Uday Hussein.
Uday Hussein, not the younger one, Hussein Uday. The people are hiding out and dying. They died July 22 don't know if you remember. Uday, Uday who's saying, not the younger one,
Kuse.
Uday.
They were hiding out or they had to get killed.
They died July 22nd of 03.
They died.
So they died three years before Saddam guy killed
in December of 16th.
So, but anyway, so I'm interviewing the
Scandinavian Latif whose Uday's double, okay?
And you're sitting there here in the stories of how they play
these games.
Oh my gosh.
It is a dirty game how these
guys play these games. But have to battle is what? You better know what I'm capable of.
China's trying to tell the world. Try us. Try us in cyber warfare, try us in bio warfare,
try us in direct warfare, try us in innovation, try us in technology, try us in manufacturing,
try us. They want the monopoly. They want them monopoly, they want it all.
They want it all and they got a nearly a couple billion people
of inventory to be dealing with.
FYI, when you're talking about a company,
company, company, company,
like Tom said, and quoting Joe Biden,
we're so focused on fighting with each other
that we're missing really who the true enemy is.
And China's just sitting there.
Just, yeah, is there any solace in knowing we can beat them in basketball?
I actually don't think that's even going to happen.
I think even basketball China's going to
great.
Uh, uh, not in the game of basketball, but I think controlling the NBA.
That's right.
Not in the game of basketball.
I think China knows because look, LeBron just got paid what?
Two years 85 million.
You know what happens if the NBA was being played in China every day. You know what his salary would have been? It would have been two years, 200 million. LeBron just got paid what? Two years, 85 million. You know what happens if the NBA was being played in China every day?
You know what his salary would have been?
It would have been two years, 200 million.
LeBron would have been 100.
If Howard Stern's making 100 million dollar contract
for seven years, they're about to sign about 67 years old,
you don't think LeBron's worth 100 million dollars?
What, yes, if we're in China.
Can you imagine if they say we're in China now,
Nick Superstar's coming up, they're getting a 10-year billion dollar contract.
Yes, if you're in China, that would happen.
So imagine behind closed doors,
Adam Silver and these NBA owners are saying,
guys, no, when it comes onto China,
let's not talk a lot of smack about China
because you could be the first to get a billion dollar.
I'm actually being that serious.
I don't know that.
So you got that big of a mark.
So what happened with Derremori and the Houston pockets
and the hogs and the pros and the stars.
Hard and still good to show up.
Yes, I do to practice by the way.
He's holding up.
So you guys, if you for one second underestimate the power of China, you are naive.
By the way, let me give a quick shout out to one of our sponsors, Hawthorne.
Hawthorne is somebody I decided to do a sponsorship with.
And again, I told the story a couple of weeks ago, you know, Adam comes up to me one day
and say, hey, listen, these guys who do soap, skin products,
all this stuff, do you wanna do sponsorship?
I laughed at Adam.
I said, Adam, what are you talking about?
You want me to do sponsorship with a skin product?
I'm not, go talk to somebody else.
I wouldn't do someone, this is Pat,
I'm just telling you, try this out.
The box sits here for how many weeks?
It was there for a couple weeks.
For a couple weeks, so finally,
when you get to try this.
Can you just go try this?
By the way, last time you texted me,
literally too late, I didn't try that last time.
The other stuff that you told me,
he's saying put the hotter on picture up here or something.
So, then I go home and I try the shampoo, the soap, everything.
And I feel like a, I hate to say this man.
I feel like a girl who can't wait to wash her face ever now.
Because my wife, it could be two o'clock in the morning,
we're coming home, she's gonna take a shower,
she's gonna wash her face no matter what happens.
She has to do it. I'm like that now, no matter what happens.
I come home, I have to take a shower,
I have to use my hot orange shampoo, I have to use my hot orange soap,
I have to use my hot orange face wash.
I am in love, my challenge to anybody that's listened to this.
Look, how many times have you seen this
do sponsorships?
We don't do it all the time.
Just go buy this thing and test it out
for yourself and see what happens.
See how you feel about it?
I took a shower last night with Hawthorne.
This morning Hawthorne, just so you know,
it's a Hawthorne family right now.
I got the hand on it.
I am in love with Hawthorne.
So if you've never done anything with Hawthorne,
just a couple of things you do.
You can go take a quiz.
They ask a few basic questions,
give you some examples like,
well, you know, what's your favorite drink?
You know, how do you spend a night out?
You know, what do you do?
Do you smoke, et cetera?
They ask you all these questions after they do that.
They come out with a result and tell you exactly
what's for you and you're able to go use their products.
And if you want to find out more about their products,
we got, they got some special offers for holiday, Christmas that's coming up. You can go to Hawthorn.com once again,
Hawthorn that's H-A-W-T-H-O-R-N-E.com.com.com.com.com.com. So Hawthorn.com, check out their special
holiday offers that they have Hawthorn.com. That's H-A-W-T-H-O-R-N-E.co.
Let's put their website in the comment section
and in the description section.
So people can go take advantage of their products.
I'm a fan, I'm a big, big fan of Hawthorne
after having used their products.
So let's talk about Trump to sign America first
executive order on COVID-19.
And maybe out of that story,
I much try to talk about Trump confirms
he'll run for president in 2024.
And he's talking about a big launch.
I don't know if you guys heard about this or not.
He wants to go out with a bank.
He wants to go tell the world on the same day
when what he called it, a Biden's gonna, yeah.
So Trump has reported planning,
a mate for TV exit on Air Force One,
from the White House
to rally on an inauguration day, hope on the poll viewers from Biden, President Trump
is planning a mate for TV exit.
Sources told the outlet that Trump is planning to fly to Florida on Air Force One to stage
a rally at the same time Biden sworn in at a socially distance inauguration in DC that
would break with inauguration day traditions designed to showcase the stability of the US democracy.
Biden said last week that he personally didn't care
if Trump attended his inauguration,
but Trump should go to demonstrate
a peaceful transfer of power and Trump has plans
for the next four years, too.
Bash Biden on a daily basis and make his life a living hell
for the next four years to show what they did to him.
Trump was to return the favor back to Biden and in afterwards he wants to run 2024 and he's
planning on running and campaigning for office the next four years. What are your thoughts?
Let me get this straight. Hold on. Yeah. Trump lost the election. He's leaving.
That's it. That's it. It's an if. Hold on. Tom, what's going on here? He's already planning
on going to Mar-a-Lago? He's already planning on going to Mara
Lago and he's already planning on this Air Force one thing. I think he needs to make
sure that he actually doesn't lose this election first. I don't like the fact that he
seems like he's conceding. I don't like that at all. I think he needs to keep fighting.
I think he's got this thing.
I know you're at 33% 41% 41 last time.
It's 41%.
You know, if he somehow loses, I don't know how he would lose, but if Trump somehow loses,
this is the trumpiest move ever in the middle of an inauguration, making it all about
Trump.
I got about America.
Forget about an inauguration. Forget about a peaceful transfer of power.
Let's make it all about Trump.
Let's make it all about everything Trump.
Forget about America.
Let's just make it all about Trump.
What's your point?
What's your point?
This is just, it's like, all, being in all seriousness.
If you lose, you lost, bro.
Like this is like, just, if Georgia does a recount, you know, he's making fun of Brian
Camp now.
If Arizona does a recount, he loses.
Pennsylvania does a recount.
At some point, you know, Rudy Giuliani, I know he's doing a great job right now.
If he has no evidence and he has nothing, no merit and he loses every single case.
And you actually lose. They count single case. And you actually lose.
They count every legal vote and you actually lose.
At what point are you just a sore loser?
At what point?
At what point do you say, look, as an American, I believe in American democracy.
I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
I'm on the, for the good of the country, the good.
The better man up country, yeah.
The better man up country, good luck with frickin' sleepy Joe. I lost, but I'll be back in four years. And be for the good of the country. Better men of country. Yeah.
But the better man of the country, good luck with frickin' sleepy Joe.
I lost, but I'll be back in four years.
This is not about me.
This is about America.
But you know, I'll see you in four years.
This is not about me.
But of Trump, of course, Trump does not have that in his body.
Everything's about Trump.
So even on an aggration day, he's going to make it about himself.
So I think he's going to rent the good year blimp fly over the inauguration and moon everybody.
I think that would be one of the things that's not a grown up move.
You know, here's the thing.
When you think of Donald Trump, he and I wrote this yesterday in VT post, he named
a 747 after himself, casinos after himself, a goal played at hotel after himself, a university
after himself.
If you don't think he's going to do something unorthodox on inauguration day, you don't know
Donald Trump.
He definitely is.
Here's the key phrase.
Joe Biden says, break with tradition, screw tradition.
They broke with tradition by harassing him for four years and whatever had taken place
in this last election with voter fraud, quote unquote, that's breaking with tradition,
where we don't count every vote.
Okay, that's the biggest break with tradition.
The other thing too is, can you imagine how happy CNN and MSNBC and the New York Times
and everybody else would be if Donald Trump did decide to run for the 24 election and declare
it right away.
They'd actually have something they could cover.
They'd be relevant again for the next four years.
And finally, I think Trump's into doing things that have never been done before. And I think him coming back
in 2024 to say, I told you so, it would be the easiest mess for him to fix and to clean
up. And I think he kind of is attracted to the scenario of let Biden bury the country
and himself and he'll come in and save the day in 2024.
Okay, let's process this. Let's process this on his decision to not want to show up.
Okay, not want to show up and do his own thing. Number one, breaking tradition. You're right.
The tradition was the sitting president doesn't get criticized by the former president that he replaced.
Okay. Well, Obama broke that tradition
because for four years, all by all,
Obama did his trash Trump.
Every single day, he had an opportunity
to talk about Trump.
He did it regularly.
Not something Bush did to him,
but something he did to Trump.
And a lot of Democrats said,
Trump was doing the same thing to Obama.
He was a former president.
But Obama was doing that to Bush all the time.
Every time something came up, Obama was it.
Well, I inherited it. He did a very good relationship. But time something came up, Obama would say, well, I inherited it.
I'm sure of a very good relationship.
But wait a minute, but because of Bush, not because of Obama, because of Bush, not
because of Obama. They have a great relation because of Bush.
You're saying it's Bush only, not Obama?
Of course it is because Bush not once said anything negative about Obama, but Obama said
so many bad things about Trump. Bush never said anything.
The ironic part is Trump likes to say that he inherited a mess from Obama.
Obama's legitimately inherited a mess.
But did I say that?
Did I say that?
No, I'm saying that's what Trump said.
Yeah, but I didn't say that.
All I say is he inherited a mess.
You're gonna let you finish it.
I let you finish it.
I let you finish it.
I let you finish it.
Okay, so my point to you is Obama broke the tradition of trashing the current president.
He couldn't help himself.
And Obama kept doing that over and over again.
And when Trump tweeted and said,
Obama has to be the worst president of all time
in our Jimmy Kimmel or Jimmy Fallon.
He was reading the tweets, mean tweets.
And Obama said, at least I'll go into history books
as a president and drops the mic.
And then at a dinner, Obama makes fun of Trump for 20 minutes.
While Trump was at the dinner and sitting right in front of him.
Yeah.
Okay, so I'm sorry, buddy.
Yeah.
This is, the Obama caused a lot of this.
No, before Trump was even running.
Obama caused a lot of this to himself.
Okay, so he didn't do the classy thing himself.
So let's take tradition on.
That part's canceling both sides out.
That's gone.
Forget about tradition.
That part's gone.
Here's the next one.
Why doesn't it want to be there?
Is it a business deal? Meaning doesn't it want to be there?
Is it a business deal?
Meaning, does he want to go do splash media company?
Here's what I'm doing.
I'm going to compete with CNN Fox all the sets up.
I don't know.
I mean, let's just say he does that.
Is he going to build a $100 billion company over the next five years?
I don't think so.
Is he interested on taking his network from $3 billion to $20 billion?
What the hell is the difference?
What is the difference between being worth three billion
and 20 billion?
Right, and no one would believe it anyway.
No, no, but the difference,
what is the difference between being worth three billion
and 20 billion?
Nothing.
You still get to go do the same thing.
17 billion.
No, but what is the difference?
You still get to buy the $200 million home.
You still get to go to all the nice restaurants.
You still afford a $747 private plane for yourself.
You still, it's the same thing.
Life's going to be good either way.
Life's going to be better at three years.
Is he trying to get that additional 17 billion?
What the hell is that going to do?
I don't think that's what he's going to do.
So then it leaves me to what?
Is it a Trump thing that he doesn't like losing publicly and is trying to say face?
For sure.
I for sure see that because I don't think he likes losing at all.
So he's going to try to say face. but he's lost many times in his career.
He's lost a football league that he had and he had any about Herschel Walker and he lost that.
He had Atlantic City. What he did over there? He lost that.
Airlines.
Casinos.
Airlines.
States.
But nothing like this.
Trump University.
This is like you lost.
Not your company.
I get that.
I get that.
But he's lost.
He's lost many, many times. He's also lost many, many, many times. So you don't become who he is without having lost, not your company, I hear. I get that. Real estate. But he's lost.
He's lost many, many times.
He's also lost many, many times.
So you don't become who he is without having lost many times.
And he's sitting there saying, this guy's a billion dollar in debt.
He's lost many, many times.
Okay.
Or here's the last one.
Here's the last one.
Or he really believes America's exceptionalism
and the American dream could potentially be lost
and he really sees these other guys as enemies
that could empower China a lot
because he learned a lot in the last four years
of what China's dealings are
and what other countries are really doing.
And he's such a firm believer now
that his number one enemy is to go up and make sure America stays at the top
and stays at that country.
I said, maybe, these are the things.
I didn't tell you what I know.
What's what?
I said, these are possibilities of what's really going on.
If it's the one that's about me,
Ziano, I got four minutes.
I'm good with that.
If it's about me, well, then he's gonna lose. Legacy's not gonna be good to him. If it's about me, Ziano, I got four minutes. I'm good with that. If it's about me, well, then he's going to lose.
Legas is not going to be good to him.
If it's about me alone, if that's at the top.
If it's about we, and it's about his true belief study, he has said that he wants to go out
and fight for that part of America, well, then Legas is going to benefit him if he makes
it, and he wins 2024, and he goes back and we see how much advancement China makes over
the next four years, because here's a reality of it.
If during a Biden administration, China becomes number one, that's on China, that's on Biden's legacy as well.
If during Biden's administration, China becomes number one, it's going to be the easiest thing for Trump to come in.
So in during his reign, China took over and became number one.
Then Trump's going to come in to say he he's the one that can go up against China.
Again, I'm setting this up.
I don't know if this is the case or not.
All I'm saying is, if that's the reason
why he's doing what he's doing, or power to him.
If it's for me, it's not gonna be.
And by the way, there's some jokes online talking about,
I think you brought it up saying,
imagine if Trump and Trump run.
Trump's senior runs as president,
Trump's junior runs as VP.
That's like nepotism
at the highest level. If that was to ever take place. But no one knows what's going to
happen the next way. I think that was your prediction. That is my prediction. I believe
it will happen because he wants to keep it going forward. He wants to save the Republican
party for the long term. And he can blame Pence a little bit too. He's a head that didn't
work. I actually think Pence, he needs a Pence. I think he definitely needs a Pence.
I don't think Trump's will.
I don't think Trump's will.
Why do you know what?
You need something of evangelical Christians.
We're looking at the Martino booth.
When we had the Martino booth here, what'd she say?
She said, you know, she respects Pence a lot.
She doesn't respect Trump.
So a Pence, if you have a Trump Trump,
what am I voting for?
You need a different video.
But we are talking about that.
It's the reason Biden picked the common.
Well, right.
Trump, juniors about to become the president of NPR would not NPR.
What's NRA?
He's about to be the president.
NRA, that's what he's working on because their family supports a lot of these beliefs.
So I got I got to give one pushback on one thing.
Yeah.
And to Shay, you're right about Obama.
He tried him and at least Obama had Trump to the White House.
Look, man, let's be grownups. I don't like you. You don't like me. Cool. You've trashed me.
Yeah. Yeah. But at least he had over to the White House.
Bro, there's a big butt. Adam, please, there's a big butt. They'll stop it.
What, how much hard time did the media give Obama for eight years, zero. Zero. He was, every article was, is
Obama the greatest president of all time? Could Obama be one degree as president of all time?
Voters are saying 62% believe that Obama's greatest president of all time. How much of that
have you seen? Any, for what? He got a Nobel Prize, three months after being a president.
What did he do? So media... What does that have to do with Trump showing up to everything?
Because for four years, all the media did is trash this guy non-stop.
It's non-stop embarrassing and humiliating him for four straight years.
Russia was a hoax. The Dacia was a hoax by Hillary Clinton.
No one covered it because it's not necessary to cover.
You know how pissed off anybody would be if they manipulated and played games like that
with you for four years.
I don't care who you are.
You could be the biggest saint in the world that's going to bother you.
So tradition wise, it is what it is.
But everybody broke a little bit of tradition here the last four years and nobody is saint.
Not on the left.
Not on the right.
No, I think he needs to show up.
Oh, no, no, I think he needs to show up. But I understand why he's doing it.
I think he needs to show up,
but I think I understand why he's doing it.
If you were in here, his ear, you'd be like, look.
First of all, if I were in Trump,
my approach will be a different approach,
but I'm not Trump.
I can't speak on behalf of human being,
how the guy's wired.
The guy's been like that for 74 years.
When people say, what advice would you give to Trump?
Nothing.
The guy got to where he got at 74 years old
on his way of thinking, you are not gonna be able to tell the guy what to do. And by the way, you can't win either way. The guy got to where he got at 74 years old on his way of thinking.
You are not gonna be able to tell the guy what to do.
And by the way, you can't win either way.
They hammer him if he went.
Yeah.
