Early voting is actually looking really good for Republicans right now, and that's probably a meaningless statement because no one knows what's going on. There's probably been a massive party realignment. But in battleground states for the Senate, Republicans are currently leading. It doesn't also that doesn't mean a whole lot because individually there's some states doing really well, some states where the Democrats are actually doing really well. And then when it comes to the battleground states for the presidency, Republicans are actually doing really well. And then when it comes to the battleground states for the presidency, Republicans are actually doing really well. Now, they are losing, but everyone expected a more massive turnout for Democrats. So it's actually really close. No one knows what's going to happen.

The pollsters are convinced. And I just got to say, if it turns out that Donald Trump is actually on track to win and he actually does win each and every one of these pollsters, you're fired. There's no way they have any credibility left after two separate elections where they just flubbed everything. But we got a bunch to talk about. We got like rappers endorsing Trump and then like swearing at Trump. And it's just kind of weird. And then there's some breaking news. Apparently, they found a suspicious package outside of the confirmation hearing of Amy Coney Barrett, which is basically happening right now.

They're going to vote her in at some point during this show. So we'll definitely pull that up when it happens. But we're hanging out, so of course, you know, Ian's chilling. What up, guys? He's got a little sloth coffee going on. He does. Slow down. Slow down, guys. Lydia, of course, is producing. I'm back. I'm back from Colorado. And it is my displeasure

to unfortunately state that Seamus is here again. You know what? You're no picnic either, Tim. Oh, wow. I know, I'm so awful. This wasn't exactly my first choice for my Monday evening plan. We forced him to come. They literally forced me out here.

You look smoother. Your new haircut. Sorry to cut you off. Thank you. I appreciate that. It's funny. The first time I ever came out here to work with Tim,

they flew me out first class. Yeah, man. Did we? Yeah. They just spended my money. I think after dealing with me, they're like, coach every time since. There's way welcome to the crew uh so you seamus's freedom tunes i guess

everybody knows that right i think so they i hope so freedom tunes youtube freedom tunes yeah youtube.com freedom yeah check out my funny stuff thank you you just did this thing about the the new york post censorship yes with jack dorsey and he's like standing guard at a club. Yes. It's really, really funny. I just got to give the synopsis because I love it. Like there's this guy, and he's basically like, I got this really big story, you know, about the vice president's son.

And Jack's all like, well, I can't just let anybody in. Just let anybody in. We're very careful on Twitter.com about who we actually let post on our platform because we want to be responsible. But my favorite part is when a guy in a straight jacket runs up screaming the Russians from everywhere. Thank you. Trump is a Russian! And he's like, right this way, sir. And he lets him in.

Could you imagine what it would be? Oh, I don't want to spoil the whole thing. People should check it out. You guys should check it out. YouTube.com slash Freedom Tunes. Watch some of my videos. It's a funny one. A buddy of mine suggested the idea to me and I was like, yeah, let's do it. I think it's a good way to tackle the issue. It was great. Thank you. So if you haven't already, smash that like button. Subscribe to the show Monday through Friday live at 8 p.m.

We're going to have a huge election night party. Yes. It was an accident. I wasn't actually planning it. I'm stoked. But every time we have like a guest in the past two weeks, I've been like, what are you doing for election night? You should just like come hang out.

And now we have like 20 of our past guests are all going to be at the same. Are you kidding me? I thought I was special. They invited me. Like, you should come out the week before the election, the week of the election the election so like you could like do the show for election night it'll be crazy we had to lie to everybody and you're the special one you had to lie to only want to hear you seamus i know you had to lie to everyone and tell them i wasn't gonna be there or else there's no way to show up yeah dude you could have just invited me and like give me a week to just watch

everyone's videos so i could just do impressions of them and you wouldn't have to fly them out and then what we'll do is we'll be like oh oh no, oh no, it's a camera glitch. Our microphones are still working, but Ben Shapiro is here and Jordan Peterson here. It's like, I don't know if Donald Trump... Isn't it interesting that Jordan Peterson came back right before the election? How's that going to affect him? What is he going to do? Do you think he's going to come? And he can't

vote, right? He's Canadian. Canadians don't have any rights here. We don't let them do that, nor should they. All Canada has is syrup mines. That's their entire economy. Did you know that they have a strategic maple syrup reserve? They do. I would believe that.

It's so cool. And there was a great maple syrup heist. What? Not even kidding. Yeah, totally. For real. What happened? Like some dudes were like, for over a long period of time, I guess, were siphoning off

their strategic maple syrup reserves. Like millions of dollars worth of maple syrup. Sometimes you just lean into the stereotype. That's true. Look, man. Stereotypes exist for a reason. Isn't this a saying? None of the Irish stereotypes are true. That's true. I don't think I have any family members

who drink too much. I don't think I've ever known any Irish Catholics or Irish people who had a lot of kids. I'm kidding. I'm being facetious. Irish people, Irish Americans do probably drink and fight more than the average person. I'm canceled. Hashtag I'm canceled. Go to the Chicago area.

Yeah, exactly. Go to the South Side. My entire family is from the South Side of Chicago, and I love them to death. But we moved out to the suburbs when I was a kid, but we'd be out there all the time, and it's where the entire extended family was. Dude, dude, dude. Yeah, Irish Catholic Chicagoans are an interesting do you know what happened when these far left protesters went through the irish neighborhood in chicago they got beat up i'm not i'm not even kidding

it's not it was it was the nato protest in 2012 i was there and i knew once they started marching i think it was like south halstead i was like oh no like this is not gonna go up there was like some old dude who was like 60 something like, like missing teeth, and he pulls his shirt off. Of course he does. They were livid. They were like, get out of our neighborhood and started just punching people. And they were like, why is he attacking us? I'm like, dude, you're marching through his neighborhood at night screaming.

These people don't care about your politics, man. He came out and whipped his butt with a can of Old Style on his hand. That's awesome. Old Style. butt with a can of old style on his hand that's awesome yeah like these people don't realize when it comes to actual like lower class white people they won't stand for this privilege upper crust you know no no lower class like people at all if you talk to black people almost like the vast majority of black people i've met in grand like i live in the south i live in georgia but they tend not to have left-leaning uh political views oh yeah for sure yeah like the idea that um everyone has just totally adopted or every group

that the left claims to advocate for has adopted their socially progressive worldview is completely insane i saw uh i think i think lauren southern posted this on instagram and it was like i don't know i think it was in the uk that the proportion of political factions and how much they post and the progressive left is more than half of all social posts and then each other faction was under 10 percent yep with like conservatives at like seven percent wow yeah well isn't it interesting how we define conservative though to be all of those other factions if you're actually other than the progressive left you're conservative this graph actually had a bunch of different things in it there was like oh i believe pragmatic moderate and there was like traditional liberal and stuff yes but it was progressive left 55 everyone else

was like five no 100 i just think it's interesting that in common parlance conservative is usually referred uh used to refer to any of the groups that you mentioned aside from the progressive left like moderate progressives are referred to as conservatives you know what i think's really really funny about the u.s though is that like the left is defined by the most extreme of the left by choice like by their choice yeah that's so like if if you have me and i'm like i am pro-choice and i believe in a progressive tax then what amy coney barrett has officially been confirmed beautiful my prayers have been answered fantastic all right so she's going to the supreme court thank god wow that's amazing that is incredible i'm very happy to hear that yeah so we're thinking anyway sorry i didn't mean to interrupt should we talk about that

well so so actually actually this is a good segue we'll do this because we'll talk about the suspicious package i guess not that it matters all that much but it goes into what i'm saying about this extremism from from the left. If a lot of these people on the left view the left and right as defined by status quo versus the revolution, like from a French revolution perspective, who's for the status quo? So therefore, they're like, Tim Pool's obviously right-wing. He likes the system. He's a reformer liberal. It's like, well, I mean, that's correct. I am a liberal, and I'm for reforming.

But in terms of their view of having a revolution, yeah, it does. Because I am not for their revolution. They're weirdos. So then what happens is you get someone like Bernie Sanders who's like, we're going to vote. We're going to change the system. And they're like, true capitalist nationalist. You're not left wing. I kid you not. They've called Bernie Sanders right wing.

Are they calling him that? There was a post on the World Socialist website that called Bernie Sanders a nationalist capitalist. What? Here's the thing, though. It's not left. Listen, listen, listen. If left and right are defined by who's in favor of the revolution, what happens if you're on the left, but then you demand a revolution of the left so you're even further left? Oh, wow.

Now the far left is right to you. Yeah, that's what they're doing. Well, I don't know if you know this, Tim, but Bernie Sanders is actually a moderate. You know that in Europe, you'd be considered right wing. Yeah, I'm so I cannot stand it. It's like, yes. All right. Yes.

Left and right are subjective. There is not like a set definition that we've stuck with from the French Revolution with respect to policy positions that have carried over since then. But yeah, the left and right shift in your nation. And it happens to be the case that Bernie Sanders is pretty far to the left in the United States. He's almost as far left as you can go on the economic scale. Yeah, he's in favor of the worker controlling the means of production.

Yeah. Well, this is also funny. They do this thing where they'll look at European politics and say that if we want to be more objective, we should define our political spectrum in relationship to theirs. And they'll be like, oh, well, like in Europe, this is actually a moderate policy, X, Y and Z. But nobody in Europe has any policies, or at least most countries in Europe do not have policies on abortion, which are as left wing as the Democratic Party's is. So there's there's this graph I like to show of the Democrats moving super far left and

Republicans staying where they are. It comes from the New York Times, an article called What Happened to Our Political Center of Gravity. But they did this clever thing where you see the Democrats go super far left, but then they're just over a black line that says median party. And so when leftists see this, they're like, wow, so the Democrats are center left. That's funny. And Republicans are far right. It's like, no, no, no no no no they're left of the average european party and europe is very far left yeah exactly so that means we are more far left than europe yeah the democrats are the democratic party i was thinking about like the way an atom works with like the heavy center and then the electron and the proton is much heavier than the electron

but they have equal magnetic charge so it's kind of like the right is like 90 plus percent of the population now because this far left is so radical and all over the place they have relatively equal magnetic charge because of social media like equal amounts of influence it seems like even though there's so many few so much fewer people on the list i would actually disagree i think it's the opposite i think that it's always been the case that most people have had pretty like socially conservative or uh maybe evenarian views, but the mainstream media has always been left-wing or center-left. And so once social media came about and you actually had people who were voicing opinions that didn't necessarily conform to the status quo of the dominant media culture, right-wing views started getting more airtime. And this is why they say things like social media is biased towards the right, because while on social media, you can actually see a right wing perspective.

Right, right, right, right. They're surprised to see it. Yeah. But I think what you're talking about, that power that the left has is because Wall Street is literally supporting it. Yeah. So I use Wall Street as kind of a catch all term for the tech billionaires, the media billionaires and literal big cuts.

The kings of Saudi Arabia. Who else is funding it? So how is it, youernie sanders like you gotta vote biden vote for the guy who's being funded by wall street yes that's insane it's completely insane the fact that like and joe biden was playing so friendly with all the people i'm sorry not joe biden but bernie sanders would play so friendly with all the people who he said were part of the establishment it's like all right you're telling me that this establishment literally exists to screw the poor over and help the rich. And you're like calling Joe Biden your friend.

You're saying that you like Elizabeth Warren, that she's a decent person. How do you expect anyone to take you seriously? Dude, dude, dude, don't you get it? Bernie was only complaining because it was sour grapes. Elizabeth Warren was worth, what, five million bucks. The Bidens are worth, I think, like 16 million. Pelosi with her husband worth like 200 and so there's bernie with his humble 174k and he was you know living in his

little little vermont house and then all of a sudden people started saying we like this guy they bought his book he became a millionaire and all of a sudden his millionaire buddies were like come on come on and he was like okay okay i'm in the club i'm in the club tim if you wrote a best-selling book you could be a millionaire too. Is that what, that's what he said, right? That's what he said, yeah. I remember that. I don't think it's that.

I just, I still love Bernie. He's a nationalist, isn't he? He's hysterical. I think that it's because he hates Trump and he's so, got TDS so hard, which is sad, but that's what I think it is. No, because here's the thing. This is a cliche. I understand that this is sort of the conventional wisdom at this point. And everyone said this.

But if there was a candidate who actually could stand a chance to go up against Trump, I do think it would be Bernie Sanders. I think working class people actually like Bernie Sanders in a way that they don't most of the other candidates that the left was trying to put up. Five years ago. You think five years ago? Five years ago. I don't think Bernie would have won against Trump.

But I think he would have stood a better chance than like Biden. Five years ago, Bernie Sanders said in an interview with Vox, he was asked about open borders. And he said, that is a Koch brothers proposal. We are not for open borders. Now he's on the stage being like, we've got to decriminalize all border crossings, free health care. And then, dude, the billionaires are bad, but not the ones funding Joe Biden. He's all right. Trump is a billionaire.

He's bad. Well, back then, he was also saying millionaires are bad because he wasn't one yet. He's a millionaire. Now it's just the is a billionaire. He's bad. Well, back then he was also saying millionaires are bad because he wasn't one yet. He's a millionaire. Now it's just the billionaires. What happens when he becomes a billionaire? He's going to be like, trillionaires like Jeff Bezos cannot run this country. It's ridiculous. Yep.

It's funny because so Joe Biden gets more donations from higher income zip codes than Donald Trump does. Yeah, that's true. I read that the other day. And he's raising tons of money from high like very very wealthy billionaire investors how are we in this is the craziest thing to me i'm talking to some of these leftists sometimes i'll tweet them and stuff and i'm like i don't understand how you guys found yourselves on the side of the billionaires like jack dorsey and mark zuckerberg literal billionaires and you're like

well i think they're all right and i'm just like i'm asking some of these people do me a favor like you don't like trump right okay that's fine you don't have to like trump can you say trump is bad joe biden is bad i'll do it first trump is bad joe biden is bad your turn and they won't do it they won't do it how how is the revolution on the side of the like conglomerates the international interests the corporations the billion of the, like, conglomerates, the international interests, the corporations, the billionaires, the crony establishment politicians. It's almost like it actually has nothing to do with helping the poor. It's almost as if the Democratic Party has no interest in that at all. And it's just about getting their own radically left-wing political agenda across that just happens to be trendy with the intellectual elite, including most tech millionaires and billionaires. This is the weird thing.

Like, what are Republicans doing? To be fair, this was interesting no no jake tapper and wolf blitzer were just ragging on nancy pelosi because the republicans have conceded on the covid relief bill this is the this is the mind-blowing thing i have to now i used to say like you know what i don't know what the republicans are doing i think they're trash the same you know like it's rhinos and dinos it's the people who want to get an office is give me the power i'll do I want. I'm not a fan of that. I'm not a big fan of Republican policy for the most part, even when they do actually meet it. But I like principle.

Now I'm like talking to my family. I'm like, they're like, what are the Republicans doing for us? Well, actually, the Republicans just like caved to the Democrats on all the COVID stuff to get the bill passed so that 25 million Americans can get their unemployment benefits in this crisis. And Nancy Pelosi said no. And it was so bad. Wolf Blitzer called her out. Members of her own party called her out.

I saw that. Jake Tapper just called her out. Wow. Jake Tapper said, it seems like the Republicans have moved your way on this and you should you could take yes for an answer. And she was like, no, no, no. They're they're moving the goalposts. They say we're doing it. They're doing it. And you've got actual Democrats. I think it was Mark Rose. He said the Democrats need to learn how to declare victory and sort of walk away. You like walk away from this. They've won. Nancy Pelosi's like, here's the things we want.

And Trump was like, OK, you got it. Well, I mean, we don't really want it. Yeah, so now she's been holding up the whole time and it's really messed up because I see I see some some resistance Democrats like really desperate they hate trump so much and they're like it's actually trump's fault this isn't getting passed and then cnn is like actually it's the democrats and i'm like dude when cnn is on the side of the republicans it must be really bad 100 really bad that's the weirdest thing to me it's the republicans who are trying to help the poor yeah i never thought i'd see that day well yeah i mean again and again i would i'm no fan of the

republican party i would tend to argue that at least like the principles behind conservative thought tend to be better for poor people because i think the government's just done an abysmal job attempting to help them but i totally get what you're saying it's really sad with the first covid relief bill i'm not as familiar with the second one so if you'd like to break that same one same one okay because the first one was literally well but the first uh the first coveted relief bill i'm not as familiar with the second one so if you'd like to break that down same one okay because the first one was literally but the first uh the first ballot was literally just a handout to the richest people in the country for the the first coveted relief bill yeah well i'm talking about the first ballot that they did several months ago it was the largest transfer of wealth which has occurred in all of human history and most of it went to the

wealthiest people in the country and in the world, frankly. Basically, they gave the Federal Reserve, I believe, $450 billion so that they could leverage that to give out about $4.25 trillion in low-interest loans to the largest companies in the country. And then small businesses had to go through the Small Business Administration, which got a total of $350 billion and usually deals with about $30 billion over the course of a year year and now had to give out $350 billion over the course of several weeks. And so what happened was there was an insane amount of fraud. A lot of these small businesses didn't get the money. 60% of the businesses that closed during this lockdown are never going to reopen. But look what happened. The richest people in the country got these interest-free loans from the government, and now they're going to be able

to buy up all of the assets of the small businesses that went under during COVID, and it's just going to be a massive consolidation of corporate power. And that's what the Democrats and Republicans gave to us in response to a pandemic. And there's more. And there's more. The lockdowns destroyed the small businesses and the big box stores and Amazon flourished and their stock prices skyrocketed. So if you were a mom and pop shop that sold, you know, bikes, you're done. But Walmart, they're good. They can sell all the bikes in the world. A million percent.

Now, we did see some stories where, like, in Michigan, they would put, like, plastic wrap up to block. It's like, you can't buy this. No one's allowed to buy these products. It's the weirdest thing. Yeah. But what's crazy to me is how, I mean, and this is mostly a phenomenon of Democrat states with Democratic governors. The Republicans weren't really doing this for the most part. But you look at these movie theaters.

They decided to just end the movie industry that's really weird to me yeah it's really really weird like even right now movie theaters are shut down in some states for no reason none why it's almost like they were like oh yeah movie theaters i hate those just shut them down they're gone it's a weird arbitrary recirculated air and dirty chairs i'm imagining like you know you got like uh like, what's a good state? Phil Murphy in New Jersey, the governor. He's like, they're like, sir, which businesses should we shut down? And he remembers like when he was a little kid, like eating popcorn in a movie theater,

watching, you know, Ninja Turtles or something or what? I don't know. Star Wars. And then like some guy, some like older kid bullied him and pushed him down and they all laughed at him and spilled his food. And then he's like, no movie theaters. Shut them the girls none of the girls he asked to go to the movies went with him i was like we're getting rid of the movie theaters there's no reason and that's what we got the big box stores made billions in stock value the wealth of these people

skyrocketed small mom and pop shops are gone yep and the craziest thing is it's the republicans who are saying that was a bad move. Yeah. This is what's scary about the Democrats winning. Do you know about the Great Reset? We talked about this a little bit earlier. I don't think we had an in-depth conversation. Do you know about the Great Reset? No, tell me.

Can you Google search Great Reset World Economic Forum? Yeah, I have an article, I think, in the Times thing. I'll pull it up for you. The World Economic Forum is basically saying that COVID is an opportunity to reset global capitalism. Oh, wonderful. Oh, fantastic. Oh, fantastic. That's great.

Under intersectional values. That's good. Good. I'm really glad to hear that. That's exactly- But I'm not. So I'm just joshing around. I'm very unhappy about that.

It's funny because if they didn't put it on their website and I said this, they'd be like, Tim Pool's a crazy conspiracy crackpot. I'm still saying it. Yep. It's literally just the Great Reset. Here you go. here here you go check it out world economic forum the great reset here isn't this and and yeah so there's an urgent need for global stakeholders to cooperate and simultaneously managing the direct consequences of the covet 19 crisis to improve the state of the world the world economic forum is starting the great Initiative. It's kind of like an ominous name for a second.

That's unbelievably creepy. I mean, isn't there a fun irony in people associating capitalism, as it's referred to in this context, to free markets, and yet this is literally the definition of a planned economy? You cannot reset a market. That's not how it works. Well, they have. Historically, the Greeks actually reset their economy when inflation got too crazy.

They were just like, eh. And so did Venezuela. We're saying no to debt. They reduced all the debt to zero and started over. Like, could you imagine? Do you know what Venezuela did? They issued a new currency. It was called like the Bolivar Fuerte.

So the banks. Oh. The Bank of International Settlements releasing crypto. I mean, they're basically going digital. I think this Bitcoin is going to become astronomically valuable. Like, you hear these people. I'm not going to give a hard number because I'm not – I don't know. But listen, I hear people saying like Bitcoin is going to hit 28K soon and they're always giving these big numbers like Bitcoin is going sky high.

Bitcoin is an international trade medium, a digital asset that can be transferred instantly. And it's the perfect tool for a store of value considering we're in digital spaces we're doing things remote we've locked everything down and it can travel instantly across borders and you can't print as much of it as you want so exactly there's a finite amount it's it's it's the perfect medium for some kind of international store of value and i think with this great reset whatever they end up doing with it they're kind kind of vague, but they do talk about intersectionality. They have a bunch of articles. Here's a question I have for you, Tim, based on what I'm reading on the World Economic Forum, which I assume would just be a solid resource for learning about econ.

Yeah. What is intersectionality, and how can it help businesses tackle diversity and inclusion? Exactly. What a great question. And here it is from the World Economic Forum website. Oh, cool. And she's painting her eyelids website oh cool and she's painting her eyelids with rainbows painting her eyelids with rainbows the diversity and inclusion battle will only be won when people are seen as multi-faceted in their social identities intersectionality intersectionality is a way of understanding how and why every individual's view of the world is different from how different is it allowed to be? From disability to race to age inclusivity, none should be tackled in isolation.

Inclusion means everyone all the time, not some people some of the time. I think it would be really great if they talked to the American intersectionals about, you know, white people, because then they could hear this and be like, oh, wait, we're not supposed to treat people that way. It's your own ideology, man. Yeah, it's fantastic. So this is the crazy thing is that we have these democrats that are locking everything down and i wonder to what extent you

have democratic governors who like this idea of intersectionality black lives matter and the great reset and i wonder how much what they're doing may be motivated by the world economic forum talking about they mentioned age so you think this is a bunch of 90 year old living till they're at 6 000 and they're like now's the time to get it. And they mentioned age. So you think this is a bunch of 90-year-old wealthy people that plan on living until they're 6,000 and they're like, now's the time to get it in their minds. Speaking of age, though, people talk about income inequality as though we just have these fixed brackets in the United States. But the reality is it's unbelievably fluid. And one of the number one drivers of income inequality is age. If you correct for age, income inequality, I wouldn't say entirely evens out, but it's reduced greatly. It's just people

who work more and have worked in their industry a longer amount of time and have more experience are just wealthier than people this is actually this is actually crazy i was reading something about this it looks i could be wrong i was just reading some stats it seems like wealth inequality among millennials is insane i can see it so like there's a small tiny bit of millennials who are extremely wealthy and then the most are extremely poor like the the average i think this is what i saw the average net worth of a yeah this okay the average net worth of a millennial is eleven thousand dollars but the median is seventy five thousand wow what what is the median exactly the median is just the middle from the highest to

the lowest oh okay not account for how many there are yeah so the and the average is the like all of them together divided so the average is really low but the median is like seven times higher so there are millennials who are super wealthy well off i mean maybe it's a youtube youtubers it's just youtubers think about which the only millennials making any money are youtubers and everyone else is just screwed why why is it that so many millennials are commies or socialists that's true this is why it makes perfect sense but dude and then the small percentage that are conservative are just the really rich ones who's like actually these principles make more sense or just having a net worth higher than eleven thousand dollars yeah that'll do it that'll make you not a communist is having a net worth more than eleven thousand

dollars think about if you inherit something from your parents the family business yeah stake in the family business you're already worth more. That makes sense. So that's something we should probably look up. I wonder if conservatives have a higher net worth than liberal millennials. Oh, I have no doubt. I would be very surprised if it wasn't that way. There was a video I did on this a while ago for the Foundation for Economic Education, which if you'd like, we started a new YouTube channel, the Foundation for Economic Education.

It's called Common Sense Soapbox with Seamus Coughlin. But we did a video a while ago on income inequality. And we also we did a video on inheritance taxes and the way it shakes out. Inheritance taxes actually make income inequality worse because poor people are more likely to inherit their wealth or they inherit a larger percentage of their wealth than do the rich. Wow. Yeah. Because why is that? But it's, well, so a lot of, actually a lot of inherited wealth is like inherited businesses. So like farmland and such. And when you have an inheritance tax, like it really hurts farmers, the people producing

our food who are exactly like who you don't want to hurt, but who for whatever reason, Marxists just have this tendency to screw over, which is one of the reasons their economies never work. But yeah, it just happens to be the case that poor people are more dependent upon intergenerational wealth than the rich are. And that's because the rich parent will make their kids wealthy before they die? I don't know. I'm not sure exactly what the explanation is. I just know it shakes out such that poor people inherit a larger percentage of their net worth than do the rich.

I think that makes sense. The poor parents won't be able to give their kids anything until they die. But think about what wealth is, right? So just because – let me stop. If a poor person owns a house worth $50,000 in the middle of nowhere, that means the wealth of the child is the $50,000. Yeah, exactly. Whereas somebody who earns their money is going to be worth way more than that if they become wealthy. So they're earning their income through industry but the average person earns their value through being having it passed down you know generation to generation so i'm i'm actually you know this is

why we have commies now this is why millennials are all for bernie and whatever even though he's in favor of the billionaires or i guess they and i look i gotta say i don't blame all of the millennials some of them are more responsible than others. Yeah. But think about what happened to this generation. I remember when I was growing up, they said, go to college. And I said, why? And they said, so you can get a good job.

And I said, why do I need a job? To make money. Can't I just make money? So I remember I read this article from an economist who said it's a terrible investment. Imagine going to an investor and saying, for $40,000, after four years, you will owe $40,000 plus interest. And they would laugh in your face. What do I have to show for it? Piece of paper. That's ridiculous. So I ultimately was like, I'm not going to do it. But millennials all go to college because their parents are like, you have to. And I've talked to a ton of my friends all throughout the years, and they keep saying, my parents are making me.

And I'm like, dude, you're an adult. You're 19 years old. I'm like, well, I live at home with my parents. They'll kick me out. Go get a job. What are you doing? Well, this is interesting. I don't know. I mean, I wouldn't say that this is intentional, but the way it shakes out the entire student loan crisis, as well as the fact that college education is as expensive as it is, and the entire infrastructure we have built around higher education is a massive handout to the corporate world because what a college degree allows you to do is determine whether or not somebody would be a suitable worker for your company. So you don't really have to go through as much of a trial period with them. If someone has a degree, they probably are a more promising worker. No, no, no, no, no.

I mean, they are more likely to hire people with degrees. Sure, sure. But I disagree with you. No, I 100% agree that that logic can be flawed, but for the most part, employers do find knowing whether or not a person is college educated to be very useful in their desire to employ. And so they're almost like these litmus tests that people are paying for on their own to pursue these careers. And then on top of that, when you're massively in debt, you are more dependent upon your employer. You're less likely to strike or go off on your own and work for another company. So even though it's funny because where did it all come from? Well, it came from the desire to help poor people.

We should make sure that everyone can get an education. So what we're going to do is federally subsidize student loans so that anyone can take out a loan and then anyone can get a college education. And look what happened. Look at the housing crisis. Colleges decided. Well, exactly. Because according to the National Bureau for Economic Research, pretty straightforward conclusion they came to.

But it's always good to actually cite a reputable think tank. They said that colleges respond to federal subsidies by increasing their tuition. Yeah. It's really straightforward. And so, yeah, it started as let's help poor people. Let's help them get an education. Education is a great thing. And it resulted in this massive dystopian nightmare where almost everyone in our generation is

unbelievably in debt and who is it helping it's helping the rich i've had a lot of i used to have a lot of people hitting me up about traveling the world and covering news when i was doing it now i get people hitting me up about youtube and stuff but yeah so back in the day you know when i was advice and everything people would be like i want to do what you do man like oh i want to travel around and i usually complain that millennials don't actually want to do the work. Yeah. Yeah. I've seen your video on this. So I've talked about how like I've had people say, well, I mean, I don't want to spend the money. Like I have a really nice apartment in Brooklyn and I'm like, what's more important going to, you know, I don't know, Ukraine for this crisis

and covering it and being there or having your nice apartment in Brooklyn. But I like my apartment in Brooklyn. Okay. The other thing, though, is that a lot of people said, I can't. I have student loan debt. I'm like, can you quit your job right now? Take your savings and fly? I mean, I could, but how am I going to pay my student loans back? Yep. Can you defer them? But then the interest is going to get really bad. It's like, okay, well, then congratulations. You signed your soul away for what? This is exactly how they get you. They put you in this cycle where you start out where you owe this massive student loan and they keep

you in your work forever. Just forever. You just sign a contract for the rest of your life to just be like, okay, this is what I'm doing now. They do. 100%. I've deferred mine for 20 years. I'm still in deferment. I just never want to pay those back. You can't do anything about it. You can't bankruptcy. He's just banking on the whole system collapsing.

Let's just wait until the election is over. I gotta be honest. I gotta be honest. His investment is about to pay out. In spades. November 4th and I'm good. I know. The entire, like we all think, we're

worried about the election. Ian has his entire financial future riding on it. My plan was to bankrupt. I graduated in 2001, and I was going to bankrupt my student loan debt. You can't do that. But George Bush in, like, 2003 made it illegal. Cannot bankrupt your student loans. You've got to keep them.

Well, yeah, and I guess, like, they can't repossess a degree, so that's the brilliance of it. You could never, ever, ever default on those loans. I was in a unique college situation where it was worth it, I think. Even though I've been in debt, I've never really stressed too much about it. It's always been a deferment. I owe more than I borrowed 21 years ago. But I had a phenomenal experience in college.

I went to become an actor, a journalist, and then I switched to become an actor. I was acting, so I was kind of paying to be there to learn how to act. I met a phenomenal friend, a beautiful girlfriend, and it launched my confidence. And so it was a hands-on degree. It wasn't like I went to study some business knowledge that I could have learned elsewhere. It was actually like acting.

Like I had a job to do. It gave me an opportunity. I don't doubt that good things came out of your college experience, but great things have come out of a lot of people's college experiences, and the system just set up in a way where you ended up getting screwed because my dad my dad paid for his entire college education like the typical boomer story but my dad paid off his entire college education working at jewel over the summer but what tuition's way lower back then no no that's my but no i'm not saying like go work at jewel ian but i am saying that it was so unbelievably cheap back then that you could actually do that which is that's completely out the window now do people know

what jewel is jewel oscar do they not have that is this just a chicago thing that's right that's hilarious they might actually not know i went down to the jewel here and got some old styles uh save on uh safeway uh right what's what's it else is dominic's just like dominic's chicago thing is it really yeah that. That's hilarious, dude. Our whole audience says Tim and I are the only people who know any of this. Safeway? Is that New York? Safeway.

I know Safeway. Yeah. What's the Ralph's? Ralph's is California. Yeah, yeah, yeah. What does New York have? New York has COVID-19 and nothing else. They've got those really thin aisles.

You know what? It's not good for social distancing. That's why I got so bad there. Did you go to college? The aisles are too thin. Did you go to college? I did go to college. What was your degree and setup and debt? Yeah, so no.

So I was unbelievably privileged. I mean, I did community college for two years. But yeah, I mean, my parents took care of the rest. And I was not going to go to college. But my plan was just to keep working and enter the industry and continue to build my business. And my parents said, no, we really want you to go. And I said, that's an unbelievable gift that most people don't get. So I'm going to do that. And I'm forever grateful to them. And I continued working on my business while the, for the two years that I went away to, um, the school I went to, which was the Savannah college of art and design.

And by the time I graduated, uh, my, my, um, enterprise was making enough money for me to just live off of. Okay. So here's the question. Do we forgive student loan debt? That's forgive the interest to start off. 100%, yeah. It's insane to me that you could charge interest on loans that the government is guaranteeing. Seriously. Isn't the entire point of interest like, alright, I'm taking a risk by giving you this money. I don't know if I'm going to get it back, so I should

have something to show for it. The federal government is just giving you the money. It's guaranteed that you're going to get it back. The idea that you'd be able to charge interest is criminal. But they want you to be permanently locked in place yeah good little workers who can't leave exactly no that's what it is that's why it works out for them so think about what's going on right now and how these urban millennials who went to college and have missed this massive debt are facing what's going on their debts getting worse the deferments the interest rates

piling up they can't find work and then along comes a bernie sanders yeah i'll give you everything you've ever dreamed of i totally understand yeah if this happened 20 years ago if i was 20 years younger and i was 20 right now that i would be one of those people but you know what it is bernie sanders collectivist let's burn it all down and undo all that it would be crazy you know you know you know why it's young people their net worth is eleven thousand dollars they don's young people? Their net worth is $11,000. They don't care. Their net worth is negative probably. Well, actually, millennial net worth under 30 is negative for college kids.

Yeah, but it makes sense. I mean part of the difficulty though is like if there was – and this is part of my problem with the whole idea of like free education is I think you end up with the exact same problem that we have now. It just exacerbates itself because the whole idea was, again, let's let poor people go to college. We're going to do that by federally guaranteeing these student loans. As soon as the consumer is removed from the pricing structure and you just have the government with these bottomless pockets paying for everything, the price goes up. And then if it's based on loans, people end up with a lot more debt. I think what we need to focus on in this country is improving the 12 years of education that we do give to everybody to ensure that they can be prepared for the workforce or better yet, just do away with that. I'm actually a big advocate

of homeschooling. I think the public school system is completely broken. And I think we talked about this last time, but the idea that people are not prepared for the workforce after 12 years of state funded education and the solution is to give them another four. To me, that's crazy, right? High school should be what college is exactly yes completely agreed teach me how to start a business teach me how to vote they didn't teach me any of this stuff in high school teach me how to write a check i didn't learn how to write a check until college i know what it is the aliens domesticated yeah you're right i think you're right the aliens are conditioning us to be good workers that's also also true. I'm kidding. The aliens are going to work for us. They're going to build more pyramids.

That's the plan, yeah. We built the pyramids. They made us. I'm kidding. Isn't that hilarious? Why would they do that? That would be such a rude thing for aliens to do. Instead of giving us technology, they're going to build some stone triangles for us.

Well, what if they need gold? Well, what if they need it? That's true. Then they just have us do it. Did we talk about this? Gold is their fuel? This is like a really old conspiracy theory that's been on the internet for a long time that they need gold to replenish their atmosphere or something.

I don't know. Did you ever see those lights? Neil deGrasse Tyson said that, I think. Well, Neil deGrasse Tyson said a meteor is going to crash into Earth today on November 2nd. So here's hoping. I'm waiting. Is there actually a meteor coming close or something?

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, there is. But I think it's really small. I think it's like six feet. It's like super tiny. Can I loop it back a little bit yeah because i know this is something we've talked about a little bit this is something that i'm very compassionate with millennials on because it makes a big difference to me that millennials i would like them to be happy and

balanced and everything and i think that part of the reason that they're having so much problem is that they have been sold a false bill of goods i think they've been told that they can go to college and get whatever job they want and it's not true it's nonsense things but you're nothing yeah you know i think one of the biggest problems we have as a society first i mean it starts young what do what do american kids do from the ages of zero to five years old watch sesame street nothing sit around nothing i think it depends i think it depends on the household an ipad well for sure but on average like a lot of kids are doing nothing especially in cities well i think there are a lot of parents yeah who do just sit their kids in front of the tv or the or the or

the tableau whatever i would do i was being uh i was being homeschooled i was too that's good before before i yeah no that's true before i went off to school my mom did teach me to read oh yeah and i'm really bad at it so no i'm kidding no that's the thing too like we my mom taught me and all of my siblings to read before we ever went off to school. And we were just ahead of the other kids in our class. Exactly. Because guess what? No one's ever going to be able to teach your kid as well as you can. Exactly.

Bingo. I entered school knowing, like I'm in kindergarten, I knew multiplication and division and all this math that was like grades above everybody else. My vocabulary was several years higher than the rest of the kids. Did you skip grades? No. I bet if you did, you wouldn't have dropped out. Why? Because you just the kids. Did you skip grades? No. I bet if you did, you wouldn't have dropped out. Why?

Because you just would have finished when you were 12 or 13. No, it was trash. I'm like, I was 14. I went to high school and they were like, okay, now open the book because you're all morons and read the passage about how you're all morons. You could have graduated high school by the time you were 14. I think you could have. I probably could have just skipped it.

Yeah. I probably could have just. It's a waste of time. You would have been like a 10-year-old in high school probably. It's all stupid. It's a waste of time. What we did in Colorado is that we had people go straight into college. In high school.

You would go into high school and come out with a college degree. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. We had stuff like that. Yeah, it's neat, right? Like you would spend a certain amount of time. Or you do like AP classes. Is that kind of what you're talking about? Kind of like that.

So anyway, look. Here's the point I'm getting to. Not only was I homeschooled before I was five years old. I was like – as early as I could possibly communicate. My mom was teaching me, my other and my siblings. My family started a business and I worked for the family business when I was like nine years old. So I'm my mom. My family started.

My mom started a cafe. And so I was helping prepare drinks. She was showing me like management stuff. So I'm like 10 years old. Yeah, I'm learning from the real world. I'm sitting next to adults as they complain about politics. And I was immersed in all of it. So by the time I was 17 and they're like, it's time for college.

I was like, why? Yeah. No, I get it. Give me. But so what happens now is you've got 18 year old kids and they're kids. They're not adults. They're not 18 year old men, 18 year old women. They're 18 year old kids.

And they're like, here, sign this paper where you can never have this debt cleared for the bankruptcy or anything. It's attached to you forever. Interest rates are psychotic, and you have no idea how this works because we've never taught you. Sign it. Sign it. They don't teach compound interest either. Yeah, why not? Seriously, why not?

It makes perfect sense. No, it's true. It's crazy. And there are workarounds. So we forgive the interest. Is that what we're saying? I would say forgive the interest. I would... You're a commie. I am a commie.

Well, no, you're right. You got me. I'm a commie. Well, no, I think that it's insane. I think it's insane for corporations to be able to profit off of public money. Yeah. I mean, as someone who believes in a free market, I think that's just like antithetical to my principles in general.

But even so, I believe in a free market, but I'm okay. I believe it's all right to have some exceptions here and there. I'm not completely dogmatic on it. When it comes to student loan forgiveness in general, I'm not sure. I think if we could work it out in a way where my fear is if we did it, we would push the problem off further into the future and perpetuate the same system of college becoming more and more expensive. And then people who didn't go to college because they wanted to save the money are going to end up

with the tax burden of forgiving those debts for people who did go to college uh and so it's not if it was just like we could wave away all the debt i would say absolutely yes and i certainly believe that that we should um prevent these these banks from being able to collect any more interests on them but didn't i don't i on them. Didn't Trump suspend the interest rates during COVID? Yeah. And I was saying that earlier in the year, and then Trump did it. And I'm like, once again, how is the Republicans are doing the things that help the poor in these situations? You know what I mean?

A couple of things. One, I fully agree with you guys about homeschooling from zero to five, teaching kids mathematics, multiplication and division. Do it. Because kids can learn math at the age of three. That's where we're at. Humanity is a genius. We have the internet. You can do it.

Secondly, do you agree with defaulting on the debt to the Federal Reserve? I'm not sure. I don't know. I don't know enough about it. I've heard a little bit, and the Federal Reserve has been a topic of interest for me for a while. But when it comes to defaulting on the loan to them, I need to give them more money. Well, then if yes, then I'm in favor of it. No.

I'm in. Let's go. Let's go. Let's do it. Let's get crazy, kids. Yeah, I'm not sure. If we defaulted on the interest only is what I'm talking about. What would that do?

Save our country like $20 trillion. It would be super cool. You could put that money into other things. Yeah, I guess. 20 trillion dollars it'd be super cool but what is i look you could put that money into other things yeah i i guess it's it's a i think it's a purposefully complicated system so that no one really has any idea and then everyone spends their time arguing about one section of it over here and then no one really knows but i can tell you the system as we have it set up right now it's very difficult for people to save unless you go into a market or make some kind of investment account or whatever yeah but now that interest rates are in the gutter because of covid it's like

what do you do you just got to spend money and build something so ultimately the best thing you can do start a business make money for yourself the problem is going back to what i was saying before we have a bunch of young people they spend listen let me ask you a question what were you doing when you were 13 years old when i was 13 years old i was actually starting to teach myself to animate and i was also buying broken computers and fixing them so i could resell them and now here you are you have a show you animate you've got a you know a couple hundred how many subscribers you have uh 460 boom very successful youtube channel thank you very blessed so i i when i was uh 13 i was playing music i was skateboarding i was doing flash animation i was doing flash animation. I was doing flash websites, video games.

I was working on all this stuff. And generally hanging out with people and learning how the computers worked and all this stuff. A bunch of other people I know who ended up going to college, getting a degree they didn't need because they didn't know what they were doing with massive debt. I said, what were you doing when you were 13? They were like, nothing, riding bikes. That's it. They would go out and play with their friends. They would go to school and do the bare minimum.

And so we have young people who are being raised by a system that does not teach them to do anything and now we have a generation of millennials who can't do anything and their net worth is really low and they're in massive debt and they can't find jobs then covid hits now you got communism yeah the only way out is if i don't got stuff and you do i get your stuff yeah huh yeah i used to tell my parents they were like what do you want to do and i said i want to The only way out is if I don't got stuff and you do, I get your stuff. Yeah. Huh. Yeah. I used to tell my parents, they were like, what do you want to do? And I said, I want to be an actor. And then they said, well, then you should start acting.

I want to be a communist and take people's stuff. They said start acting like it. Yeah, exactly. I auditioned for a play when I was 16. I was a little later to the table. I was 16 when I started. It's all good. Before that, I was working at a job playing magic cards.

But I had my own job since I was 12. Yeah. Walking dogs. I remember in high school working this really, really lame job. I had a friend of ours. I don't want to say the name of the company because they will get hashtag canceled for hiring me in high school. But it was literally like an ushering slash security business where you would just stand there for between like a 12 and 16 hour shift and just tell people, no, either let me see your ticket or no, you can't use that door. And then people would yell at you for things that were clearly not your fault, which happens to low-level workers constantly.

This is the thing, man. People will go to McDonald's and think that the kid behind the counter is stupid. But I guarantee you he thinks you're a moron because he gets asked such dumb questions by all the customers all day. Dude, I was just at a fast food place. I was thinking dude we were just uh i was just at a fast food place the same thing as we were just at a fat fast food place it was a nathan's hot dogs and some guy walked up and he started yelling at these like these the workers there like horrible he's like look at this and he opens the hot dog thing and they were just like well done i don't say they were burned he was like look at those hot dogs and look at this why would you give me

this and then she's like i don't know he's like i don't like you yeah i did it it was personal but the crazy thing is i'm like dude if you went up and you're like hey i'm sorry to bug you but like these these hot dogs kind of suck could i get the good ones she might be like i don't care it's not my money like you got it you don't got to be mean not only that like she might hook it up she might be like dude i'm not the manager here let me give you the best ones possible i'm sorry about that it doesn't like why be mean to people i don't know that thing with people just good or something well people just have a tendency of taking their anger out on whoever they can get away with taking their anger out on it's not necessarily personal it's horrible though i agree

so here's the other thing so there was an article recently uh it's recently i mean it's like the other day it's in the atlantic saying that voting for joe biden is the right thing to do if you are worried about the woke left or the liberal left what a great plan yeah that's like blackmail like don't if you're afraid of getting your throat cut vote for the guy that's threatening you hold on hold on that's what they say they're like if someone tries taking your stuff just give it to them just give up that's what they tell you to do that's um so so isn't that letting the terrorists win isn't that like the whole thing we've talked about for 20 years so here's the terrorist win they're saying that donald trump fans the flames of the illiberal left or whatever and i'm like joe biden's negotiating

with them i'd rather have the guy fighting against them anyway i digress so uh there's another article by helen pluckrose that made a similar argument and i don't want to put words in her mouth but basically when i responded with you know why would i vote for the guy like it would just justify their tactics that the violence and the extremism and her response was i wouldn't vote for antifa either i i felt like i'm not trying to put words in her mouth but to me that she was arguing joe biden is not antifa okay well of course joe biden isn't of course joe biden is not a socialist he's just the guy on bent knee begging them for their votes because he doesn't have a coalition to defeat donald trump yeah so he's already done the bernie sanders pact he's already negotiating with him he won't call them out but

more importantly in new york just the other day a bunch of people were throwing eggs and rocks at trump supporters in their cars yep and apparently i think it was a woman ran up to an suv and pepper sprayed everyone, including the children. That's not Antifa. Oh, listen, it was just some Brooklyn leftist. These are the people saying Trump is bad. I'm not going to I'm not going to give them what they want. They pepper sprayed kids because a guy had a Trump flag.

So I'm not voting for this guy. You know what I mean? You remember when John Oliver said Orange Man bad and then pepper sprayed his audience? I don't. He did. I should be less dry that one i was just thinking of like a very i was thinking of like a very establishment guy so here's what here's where i bring this up you get all these young people who have been pushed into this grinder they have massive debt they can't pay it off the interest is piling up covid happens and now they go insane.

And so I'm in favor of forgiving that interest. But these people have snapped. Now they're throwing eggs at people, pepper spraying kids. Not all of them, not every single one. But how often do you hear about these stories where a Trump supporter gets attacked? There's like several thousand stories like this over the past four years where they're getting harassed, attacked, threatened in the street. These people have snapped. And what it is, many of them need a symbol of what they hate to attack, to damage, right?

That's right. Why did the far leftist throw a brick through the Starbucks window, right? Because Starbucks is a massive corporation that symbolizes their hatred and their anger. And you oppress me. So they throw a brick through the window. It does nothing. It does nothing to help their cause. It hurts their cause. And you oppress me. So they throw a brick to the window. It does nothing. It does nothing to help their cause. It hurts their cause, but it feels good.

Now people have replaced that symbol of the big corporations with Trump. So now they see a Trump supporter and they're like, you. And they're taking all of that anger and they're directing it towards random people who are waving flags. That's... Yeah, no, I totally get where you're coming from. And I'm sympathetic to a lot of the struggles that people discuss, younger people going through waving flags. That's... Yeah, no, I totally get where you're coming from. And I'm sympathetic to a lot of the struggles that people discuss, younger people going through right now.

I've said this in the past. I mean, I'm unbelievably blessed. I came from a two-parent home. I was raised with really solid Catholic values. I was just set up in a lot of the, really the best possible ways to be set up. So I absolutely don't look down on anybody because their circumstances are harder. I just think that the solutions being proposed by the left are horrible. And I think they're taking advantage of people who are going through extremely difficult times. And I would also say this. There was a time when instead of telling people to check their privilege, we'd tell them to count their blessings. Because we wanted people to be grateful instead of feeling guilty.

And that's more or less where I'm at. Yeah, I got a lot of great things out of life. I've been tremendously blessed. I don't feel guilty about that. I feel grateful for that. I thank God every day for the life that I've gotten because I've gotten so much that I don't deserve. But to say that the solution to that is to like bend over and have this white guilt and tell people, take whatever you want from me, implement whatever system makes you happier that you think in the moment might be best for this country, despite all of the evidence saying it will never work is completely insane. But that's exactly what they want. That's exactly why they

want people to feel guilt. This is the interesting thing about wealth inequality arguments and Andrew Yang saying like abolish poverty or whatever. I don't know exactly what his hat said, but something to that effect, because we are actively abolishing poverty. Capitalism is doing that. Like the curve is like going way down, like poor people in this country are poor, but many of them have air conditioning. Well, that's the thing, right? So about 99% of the world population subsists off of less than $30,000 per year or makes less than $30,000 per year. So if you make 30 grand a year or more, you are in the top 1% of the global economy. And also global poverty has been decreasing for decades, unfortunately, until these lockdowns, which shut down our production chain. Now there are more people for the first time in decades, or I believe two decades, there are more people at risk for starvation this year than there were last year.

And it's a massive swath. So, yeah, things are going in the opposite direction. But that also shows you, and that can help inform us on people making claims like, oh, how could you put economics above human life? You know, anytime you want to discuss- Because they don't know what economics means. Yeah, exactly. They don't know what economics means. They think it's just some abstraction that,

you know, Wall Street- They think it means you make money. Has convinced us in believing it. Yes, exactly. But all economics is about is like promoting human well-being and flourishing. And when you shut down the entire economy, guess what happens?

People starve to death. And it's hilarious because the left was arguing for so long that if you even want to cut a penny of welfare spending, then poor people are just going to die. Because when people don't have money, they don't have access to resources. And when they don't have access to resources, they die. But we can shut down the entire global economy for three months and no one's going to die because of that. We're actually going to save lives. So that's insane. Here's the interesting thing about wealth inequality. I always hear they're like, Jeff Bezos is worth a hundred and whatever billion dollars and there are people

sleeping in the streets. That's a huge problem for our country. And those are two completely separate things that are completely unrelated. If you took away Jeff Bezos's money, you're not going to get people not living on the streets. These people fundamentally don't understand how wealth works or how homelessness works no they just think i i love it when people say things like think about how many empty homes we have we could put homeless people in them and it's like you you can't just do that it that's it's some anybody people who say that clearly have never owned a home understanding how much work goes in it what happens if you put a homeless guy in a house and then the plumbing breaks or the house burns down

because of faulty wiring and the dude dies and what happens to the real estate market and all the people who actually have a mortgage in a home that they spend all this money on? What happens to their property value or their home? And then what happens to people who make their business or make their money renting? I mean, you would actually have to, you would have to radically restructure the entire economy to do something like that. It's not just a question of putting homeless people in homes. That said, there are solutions. Like there are ways on the table and things that we can discuss to get homeless people housing 100%.

That's not the issue though. Yeah. Yeah. No, I agree. The issue is homelessness is driven mostly by mental health. Exactly. So for these people to come out and say, people shouldn't be homeless. We should tax the wealthy.

It's not right. It's like, those are two entirely different universes. You know, one of my favorite sayings is from people feed the homeless. Yeah. Have you heard that? Yeah. We want to go out and feed the homeless. I'm like, bro, from people? What? Feed the homeless. Yeah. Have you heard that? Yeah. We want to go out and feed the homeless. I'm like, bro.

Why? They're not foodless. Yeah. They're homeless. Yeah. There's a difference. Just because they don't live anywhere doesn't mean they're hungry. You want to feed the hungry.

That's what you want to do. But there's like these weird things. And these people, they have good intentions and I respect it. But I actually worked as a director at a homeless shelter. I actually worked for many non-profitsprofits and the problem is mental health and choices people make you no amount of money because some of some of the shelters were empty why homeless people don't want to be in them they wanted to be drugs well and a lot of the a lot of well here's the thing a lot of a lot of shelters are empty now because of covid you

talk to homeless people they will tell you like i can't get anywhere to stay right now because the shelters in my city are closed down because of covid. You talk to homeless people, they will tell you like, I can't get anywhere to stay right now because the shelters in my city are closed down because of COVID-19. Another thing that's interesting is, I mean, it's of course, it's good to feed homeless people. I firmly believe that. But a lot of it is like, again, this problem of them not having housing as opposed to not having food, though, again, I believe we should feed them. That said, so many homeless people have said to me, don't mess with drugs, don't mess with alcohol, which is an interesting thing to say. They'll start sort of explaining some of the things that ruin their lives and encouraging you not to do it. Now, I'm not saying because

they ruin their lives in these ways that we just let them hang there. Absolutely not. But it's a horrible tragedy. And a big part of it was the deinstitutionalization movement that we had in the 1970s. So even without even adjusting for changes in our population size, there are less people in mental health facilities today than there were before the 70s, which is completely insane. And I think that's part of why we're seeing more massacres. I think it's part of I mean, mental illness has become a much more serious issue in this country because we don't take it as seriously as we used to. Yes. And I think that's also why homelessness is such a problem, because there are people who should be in the hospital. They should be in a mental health facility, but they're not. They're out on the streets instead.

So so going back to the wealth inequality thing where you have Jeff Bezos, all this money, I'll tell you what the real problem is with the billionaires. It's what Bernie Sanders used to say. Their influence over our political structures for self-interest. And the best example is Joe Biden being funded by billionaires in Wall Street, substantially more. Park Street. Well, Wall Street colloquially. The Congress people getting bribed

with campaign contributions and dinners and lunches and stuff. Do your air quotes when you say bribed. Bribed. Lobbied. I don't need quotes for that. Fancy steak dinners and promises of once you leave, we're going to hire you. Yeah, come on. Wink, wink. Or if you're, say, like in a high position of power and you want to make money off your office,

so you just have your kids sign the paperwork. 100%. But that's not what happened, right? Right, right. It's all fake news. Russian disinformation. That's just strange fake news. There's no quid pro quo. So here not what happened, right? Right, right. It's all fake news. It's Russian disinformation. That's just strange fake news. There's no quid pro quo.

So here's my issue, right? A lot of people like to complain about George Soros. And I'm like, you know, George Soros is funding this and funding that and the protesters. And it's like, okay, well, first, let's break it down. Who is he funding? He's funding the Open Society Foundation, I believe. And then they provide grants to a bunch of different leftist organizations. So short answer, yes, but it's a bit more than that.

He gives out money and then they send it out in these areas. And then he turns his back and closes his eyes. Well, I mean, he's just some bumbly old dude who's got a ton of money and he's putting it into leftist programs. But the thing is, I'm like, can you name the other billionaires who are doing literally the same thing? Yeah. So this is why I'm like, I get it, man. You're mad about it. When you say Soros, what you're saying is billionaires bring give me the bernie sanders line okay the billionaires

because you've got the mercers you had the coke brothers i don't know how active the coke brothers are now though because i think they were doing some of that with sex and leftists you've got uh what's another who's another oh you're the base of mackenzie bezos put what two billion dollars into the gates foundation right right right it's always funding abortion all over the world the gates foundation always oh yeah the ones i don't care if they're left or right i really don't okay if they're if they're in if they're if they have more power over what we say in our own country it's a serious problem because then when all these politicians have to worry about raising money for re-election then they then they're gonna go and figure out a way to get massive cash from the rich people

because it's easier. It is easier to convince a billionaire to give you a million dollars than a million people to give you a dollar each. So the other night I was talking to Tim about when we had Ryan on the show. Ryan Long? No, no, no.

What was that? His name's Ryan Hartwig. Yeah, Hartwig. Oh, Ryan Hartwig, yeah. Facebook whistleblower. And I was talking about making more of a direct democracy, but really it was more of a direct republic. In that if you have your congresspeople, A, B, C, D, and E, and they're all voting yay or nay on a bill, rather than that, they can all be bribed, lobbied. Have their constituents vote, 700,000 people vote, and then for A, the majority will be yay or nay.

And then for B, their constituents vote, the majority will be yay or nay. And then for B, their constituents vote, the majority would be yay or nay. And so, instead of these billionaires being able to bribe A, B, C, and D, they've got to have to target the 700,000 people. So it's like, you can't bribe those people. Yeah, you totally can, though. You can totally bribe voters with the public treasury.

The public treasury, but not private money. Yeah, all you have to... It doesn't matter. I mean, either way, they're being bribed. All you have to do is say that we're going to get the government... I'm trying to think of how to get money out of politics. I don't think you can. It's not possible. You just got to get the votes out of those single person's hands. Money is politics. You cannot get it.

The whole idea of representatives is kind of funky in that system. With digital technology now... I'm trying to keep up with you guys. You're all over it. With digital technology right now, the instant transfer of information and money, yeah, it's becoming really, really difficult. There's no billionaire who says, here's a check for a million dollars, Trump. What he does is he says, I like this guy, Trump. Have a nice day.

Write the check for a million dollars to the Trump super PAC that is no way connected to Donald Trump. And then runs the commercials to get him elected into office. That's basically how it happens. So there's a limit on how much an individual can give to a candidate. I am not a fan of unrestricted super PAC mass spending. I've never been. And I've had people argue about it saying like, it's your money. You can spend it how you want. And I'm like, I don't like the idea of Mackenzie Bezos or George soros or the mercers or the cokes or anybody saying i'm gonna dedicate or mike bloomberg put what like 500 million dollars some ridiculous number into the primaries to just like boot out bernie and do whatever and he couldn't that was he spent all

that money just getting himself on stage he just got roasted it was great it didn't work i love that i may have bloomberg and he was up there and everyone's just scorching him the entire time the entire time but i will i will tell you what i enjoyed about it is you know he was making it making it rain on youtube you know all those biden ads so we did a video about that a while ago you guys should check this one out another shameless plug we did uh bloomberg for america and he it was just based on like it felt like and i almost forgot about this till you mentioned it but for like a solid week or two everywhere you you turned, there was a Mike Bloomberg ad. It was so great. And it was this weird kind of—

YouTube ad revenue spiking. Exactly. It was this very strange moment where it was something that a totalitarian dictator would admire. Like Kim Jong-un wishes his face was plastered as many places as as uh bloomberg's was for that one week but it only works if you have a face worth looking at you don't he did michael bloomberg was just you know a really annoying guy he's all right he's cute he's i think he's very handsome and then tom steyer too just dumping money so listen my point is sure i remember uh it was it was almost 10 years ago i was at cpac i

think and it was like when was when was the citizen united ruling that was like 10 12 years ago was that or something i don't know i don't remember exactly when it was but i was talking to conservatives and they were like if you have money and you want to spend it how you see fit you should be allowed to do it if that supports a candidate and i'm like yeah but you're creating a loophole for the ultra wealthy people to guarantee essentially essentially guaranteed because trump won with half the cash of hillary clinton yeah but but it's the first time that's happened to hasn't campaign spending been like the number one predictor of who's going to get elected and whoever spends most yep and then trump so maybe we'll see something again but i i don't i don't want these people to be like

listen here's what people don't understand about politics anyway. Even with campaign limits on how much I or anyone else could donate, the more money you have, you can just donate to 100 people. Yes. So imagine you're like, the average person says, I can afford to give $20 to my candidate. And then the average rich person says, I'm legally obligated not to spend more than $2,800. So here's what I'll do. I'll give $2,800 to every single Democrat. That's just like blanketing the whole thing.

Or more importantly, they'll just be like, I'll just make the commercial myself. Exactly. Yes. You can give people's campaign money in that way. And this is what Ben Shapiro said. Okay, that's when he was debating Cenk Uygur. But he makes this point. Is it, I mean, what really is the difference between you donating x amount

of million dollars to bernie sanders versus you dedicating your entire youtube channel to promoting his campaign good point for throughout the entirety of the primaries uh why is one okay and the other isn't like either way you're just using your power and influence to change the political system in some way and therein lies and that's something you we cannot stop like you can't change that. That will always be the case. Yeah, there's no way around it. Yeah, and I'm not saying it's a good thing,

but the fact that being rich gives you power and influence is not some quirk of capitalism or the American system. This is always the case. I agree. Powerful people are powerful. I agree, and I don't think that... I think that Michael Bloomberg

gave me a lot of hope because I was like, he's not making it big. Yes. I really thought he was going to get in there and smash it up like nobody liked this guy everyone wanted to go away what are we talking about now tim thinking uh in in in that line of thinking with republicans are not raising nearly as much as democrats the congressional democrats have been raising tons of money and donald trump has raised a lot less yeah joe biden is getting all of that

sweet sweet green from from wall street and park street and the billionaires uh it's actually looking really good in the battleground check this out that's cool 2020 general uh election early and absentee vote report this is from target smart and right now for battleground states republican turnout is 2.4 percent higher than democrats wow now here's the important data in 2018 in bat in these same states they were at this at this at this time there was 4.5 million republican votes 3.7 million democrat votes now there's 8.6 million democrat votes to 9 million republican votes and 1.8 million unaffiliated for a total of 19 million 10 million more than in 2018 and around 10 million more in 2016.

The first thing I'll say is high voter turnout in early voting does not mean more voting. Right. A lot of people keep saying like, wow, look how many people voted early. That means it must be really big because Election Day. No, no, no, no. That means people already voted. Early voting means the one person voted. So we're probably going to see massive voter turnout for sure on the third. Yeah. Take a look at this. If in battleground states in on average, Republicans are winning and they are saying Nate Silver says is 538 that Republicans are going to be heavily favored for in-person day of voting, then Republicans are dominating. So Democrats were

expected to have a seriously large advantage with early mail-in voting, absentee, and early voting in person. And in many states, they have it. Like Philadelphia is really bad. It's like apocalyptic for Republicans. We'll see how this plays out. But then there's the voter registration, you know, thing that Republicans have. But in Battleground Senate, they're saying, you know, several people think that the Republicans are going to lose. at least on average, is looking really good. Now, the interesting thing is for Battleground president, Republicans are down only. What is that? Two points, two percent to Democrats. They they they were up last last election in 2018, and now they're down about 600 or so thousand votes in 2020.

Republic Democrats are being encouraged to vote early in huge numbers so they should have an advantage because they're going to be doing absentee as well they're not seeing that huge advantage nate silver said something like it was supposed to be d plus 17 for mail-in voting they're up two points early voting is a really bad thing to base predictions off of because a lot of counties haven't opened yet like new york is just now opening but things are starting to look good for donald trump in a lot of ways and the only this is the thing the media has created this narrative space where i can actually say this donald trump it's looking really good for him even though he's losing by double digits in the polling

why because he's supposed to be down what like nine like nine points on average from Joe Biden. And we're seeing two, two percent. That is really fast. Does that mean he's going to win? No, no. And we're not even sure what's explaining that. But it's definitely not what I expected. That's for sure. It's all the Republicans from 2016, plus a bunch of new people that used to be Democrat

that switched. Johnny Rotten. Like none of those Republicans, almost none, have turned Democrat. I doubt. I would be very, very surprised to find out. I'd like to find out the numbers. Do you see that viral story of the woman, like, doing the cards, and she slowly pulls them?

Yes. And she's like, my dad was on his deathbed, and we demanded he vote for Biden. He said, okay. Dude, that made me so mad. That was really horrible. That's brutal. You're up against an incumbent president. Incumbents rarely lose.

Right. That's also true. Yeah, yeah. Presidents almost, they'll almost always do two turns but think about it you know i there so michael tracy tweeted this thing out earlier it was this guy from in 2016 saying in order for trump to win at this point every major national poll would have to be wrong yeah and it's like when did that is it possible like would i would i bet on it no i was like is it possible yes would i bet on it no i'm not an idiot and then every single poll it's not so much that they were wrong it's that this far out they were wrong and they started to shift there's a lot of

a lot of october surprises really hurt hillary and then there were some they missed one or two points of trump's voters for trump to win right now every single pollster would go out of business every single one i don't know because they didn't go out of business last time. Yeah, but last time they were off by a point or two. And it was like it was within the margin of error and our forecasts were wrong. So they were like the real care politics shows all of these different polls. And they're like Hillary Clinton plus three. She was plus two.

Didn't didn't Frank Lund say just the other day? He's like, if we get this all wrong, we all deserve to go out of business. Yes, absolutely. Let's screenshot that. Let's screenshot that let's archive that no no no he said people like me will have to find a new profession okay i think the point he was making though is we're not wrong so i think can you explain that how polls are actually models that was an interesting conversation so yeah people don't know this like polls aren't just like they call random people they're all weighted weighted that means we have to guarantee x amount of republicans democrats and unaffiliated to match the national average we have to match demographics so we have x number of 18 to 29 year olds x number of 80 to 29 year old latinos then we have to figure out how demographics

have changed and model based on that people don't realize polls are not just we called a thousand random people. And here's what they said. Because if you called a thousand people in New York, they're going to be like Biden. You're going to be like 100 percent for Biden. Your poll would be ridiculously wrong. So when you've got a poll that says D plus three, that's just based on the 2016 model. So basically, depending on the poll, you're looking at the demographics that have entered that area or the population growth they've seen with certain groups that tend to vote in a specific way. So first, it depends on the model.

All these different organizations have different modeling. They're not straight polls. Like if you went outside and walked around a person and said, which do you prefer, chocolate or vanilla? You'd be like, I asked 100 people. Here's what I got. They have to model all the different places, all the different political affiliations, different demographics, and try and get representative samples. What ends up happening is a lot of these polls are sampling Democrats based on the projected Democrat turnout because of what we saw in 2016 and 2018. So in 2018, we saw in 2016 and 2018 so in 2018 we saw x many democrats

therefore we're going to ask for every 100 people we want 36 to be democrats we want 29 to be republican and then the rest to be third party or unaffiliated then they say based off of that here's what we saw the issue is that gallup does party affiliation tracking which fluctuates right now in uh in september the september 14th tracking for party affiliation tracking, which fluctuates right now in September. The September 14th tracking for party affiliation for Gallup was D plus five. It fluctuates wildly. And as of the latest, it's R plus one. So if right now polling is being based off of party affiliation numbers from, you know, last week, last month or whatever, the party affiliations fluctuate dramatically. Do the polls have 27% Democrat? No, they're like 35. So they're oversampling Democrats. They try to account for this. The polls say like our margin

of error is this. We believe we have a mean bias in this direction for this reason. But what people need to understand about the polls is that I respect the experts. I do. I'm not a pollster. But when they come out with a poll. And they say. We believe we have a bias in this direction. And a margin error. Margin of error.

In you know. This size. For these reasons. They're telling you. They don't know. They're just giving. Giving us professional expert. Opinions.

On what they think is going to happen. Based on what they've collected. What ends up happening then is. You've now got Rasmussen. Which is like. Favorable to Trump. Very often. Trafalgar Group says. Trump is going to happen based on what they've collected. What ends up happening then is you've now got Rasmussen, which is like favorable to Trump very often. Trafalgar Group says Trump's going to win. Trafalgar Group straight up came out and they were like, Trump's going to win re-election.

Hands down. You've got the Democracy Institute saying Trump is up by one point. But then when you look at all these other polls, they're like, Biden's up 16. Then what ends up happening is news outlets that want to favor their candidate will highlight only that poll. In a new CBS News poll, Joe Biden is leading Trump by 12 points. And then people say the polls are wrong. Well, sure, if we go off Trafalgar and Rasmussen and Democracy Institute, Trump's winning. So we don't know what's going to happen.

And that's why the polls are wrong simply because all of the polls disagree with each other my favorite thing about polling is that when you look at the real clear politics average it's like trump minus two trump minus 12 trump minus four trump minus 20 and i'm like what is this like none of these things like they're all random jibber what is the real politics average the real clear politics average yeah what is that they take a bunch of different polls from like the past several weeks and then average out the total approval two week ago one the seven days ago it's the best way to do it in my opinion because they'll they'll they'll put rasmussen up against say like um you gov or cbs or something so you'll see rasmussen typically leaning in favor of trump but rasmussen was right in their national polling predictions

for 2016. Wow. They said Hillary Clinton was going to win by two points or whatever she did. Everyone else was wrong by another point or so. So when Rasmussen right now is saying that Trump's support approval from the black voters at 46 percent, the argument is they were right last time. The other thing is Emerson in earlier this year saw the same thing. They said Trump's approval

among black voters at 30%. If that's true, Trump cannot lose. He can't lose. Period. Period. Wow. It's a longstanding trope,

I guess, that if a Republican ever gets 20% of the black vote, the Democrats will never win again. That's fascinating. I was unfamiliar. So whether or not Trump actually gets that yeah

we'll see we just we actually actually i will i'm going to quit all the vote we got this story we gotta do it oh yeah what is this story 50 cent oh doris donald trump oh boy now they're saying he's back of course he did they're saying he's backtracking i don't think he backtracked i don't think i don't think so who was that lady who was on who's like i need to remind him he's black chelsea chelsea handler that was like the worst thing that was the most white liberal woman statement i've heard in my entire life wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait that wasn't the only thing she said oh no she not only agreed to i'm taking my headphone i don't want to hear it she not only agreed now you can hear me better listen listen she not only agreed. Now you can hear me better. Listen, listen. She not only agreed to pay his tax bill if he reconsiders his support for Trump, which I'm pretty sure is illegal. Blackmail.

She also agreed to sleep with him. Well, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. She said, she said, she said, go another round. That's what she said. Terrible. I'm pretty sure that's illegal. That's disgusting.

Anyway. And of course, I mean, I'm sure they played's disgusting I'm sure they play it off I'm sure she's doing a bit but that's still a horrible thing to say we're not going to put her in jail she's just joking the judicial system is a joke I'm not like an authoritarian

but at some point you've got to lock somebody up I don't know I think she was joking but it's still a horrible thing to say what do you think? OK, joking doesn't make 50 50 cent said 62 percent tax under Joe Biden. F that vote, Trump. I don't care if Trump doesn't like black people.

I don't want to be 20 cent. Now, that's hilarious. And then Chelsea Handler was like, you know, she said all these things. Then 50 cent posted again. F Donald Trump. I never liked him anyway. I don't think that's a backtrack. I don't think he liked Trump in the first place.

I don't care if Trump doesn't like black people. 50 Cent doesn't want to pay all those taxes. Of course not. I still want to be 20 Cent. I still love it. Is this the first candidate to ever run on raising people's taxes? I heard that. I don't know if that's true, though.

Oh, man. Like a president being like, read my lips. I'm going to tax people many new taxes yeah yeah if you're like me your taxes are gonna go yeah he's like saying he would raise our taxes which is great you know people voters love hearing that i love how doesn't he realize that's one of those things you're supposed to lie about like that's that is that is that is why you are saying the quiet part like mr buyer you know i love how the media and Twitter have been lying for him. It's the funniest thing. And then I hear people say it to me and I'm like, sit down, my child.

They're like, Joe Biden's not raising taxes on people. You're so dumb. He's only going to raise taxes on people who make more than $400,000 a year. You're so dumb. I have a question, my friend. Is removing a tax cut raising people's taxes? Yes. What do you mean?

Well, so Joe Biden said he's going to repeal Trump's tax cuts on day one. Does that mean that people's taxes will go up? Yes. So Joe Biden is going to take an action that results in your taxes going up? Yes. So Joe Biden is going to raise your taxes? No, he's only raising taxes on people. He's going to raise taxes on everybody, dude.

What's funny is with the trump tax cuts as typically everybody as typically happens with the the trump tax cuts we actually saw an increase in revenue but they say that there's a decrease in revenue because they spent more than the increase was after we pulled it in which is a ridiculous way to argue uh that position not the strongest yeah yeah um so so tax cuts are good for the country ladies and gentlemen and good for individual people and i'm a middle class person you know like i i um i'm like pretty firmly in the middle class making an average living and the trump tax cuts saved me a good amount of money on my taxes i'm gonna i'm gonna i'm gonna let y'all in a big secret did you know that cutting taxes

can actually increase tax revenue no yeah that's what i just said jurisdiction it does yeah it does well every single time i mean the trump tax cuts did increase revenue but what happened was they spent the surplus right so that yeah and so they used that to argue that we actually have less money than we did before therefore his tax cuts decreased our revenue it's not true for the ignorance but revenue is the incoming money minus the outgoing money no no revenue is just the incoming money then how can they say that the expenditures lower the revenue because i think that they might have they spent more than they had so a lying but also they spent more than they had so they were under budget i think so then they're saying oh that means revenue but it still increased but they still actually they're like raw

revenue actually did increase the amount that they pulled in yeah the government pulled in here's what's higher here's what happens uh i probably told the story on this uh on the show before but there was a friend of mine this is maybe like 15 16 years ago a friend of mine uh her dad was a contractor apparently there was like a home depot or something in cook county chicago and they shut down and then moved like five or six miles away into dupage county and reopened and i like talking about it, and he said this is a really good example of raising taxes not working. Because when they raise the sales tax in Cook County by like 0.02% or some really small number, the people who are like, the contractors say, I go to Home Depot, I order my wood, 0.2% over the year, average is out, I'm going to lose $20,000. I will drive an extra 30 miles for my orders and for my deliveries if it means I'm saving twenty grand.

So the Home Depot was like, we're losing business because of this. We're going to reopen a few miles down the road and we're going to save our business. So what ends up happening is Cook County lost all tax revenue trying to get a little bit more because jurisdictions are competing with each other. Yes. So long as we don't have a nationwide uniform sales tax, the competition will exist. And then someone in Cook County will be like, I'm going to go buy my expensive electronics

in DuPage where the sales tax is lower and I'm going to save myself 20 bucks. Yes. It's worth driving a few extra miles. You know why? Because business people can still do math even though politicians cannot. Exactly. That's the trick. There extra miles. You know why? Because business people can still do math, even though politicians cannot. Exactly. That's the trick. There's superpower.

You can order stuff online. Well, I just wanted to bring the receipts on what I was saying earlier. According to the Congressional Budget Office data, in the 2019 fiscal year, federal revenues increased by 4%, but spending increased by 8%. Right. So they said the deficit spiked. Therefore, Trump's tax cuts didn't work. No, his tax cuts did work.

The American people got more money in their own pockets. And it was also better for the government because they actually made more revenue or pulled in more revenue. But they can't get money. They can't take money in without spending more than they took in because they have no self-control. And so the deficit did increase. But that's not a problem with the tax cuts. That's a problem with our spending problem. Now, here's how it works federally with federal tax cuts, because there's no external jurisdiction.

It's simple. If I give a dollar to Seamus, he's got to pay 20 cents to the government. He now has 80 cents. He then uses that 80 cents to buy a widget from you. You've got to pay 16 cents on your 80 cents. So the more money you guys have, the more opportunity for trade. So more tidbits keep getting stripped away and given to the government. The simple way to put it is if you tax at 30 percent, then Seamus only has 70 cents.

He can't afford your 80 cent widget anymore. He doesn't buy it. They don't get any tax revenue after the first exchange until later on. So it can slow down or stagnate the market, resulting in less revenue making its way to the government for expenses. Exactly. Or my business grows. We're actually making much more. I hire more people. Now there's more payroll taxes being paid to the government. I'm sure there are economists listening right now screaming about all the little things. I know, I know, I know. But I know that, I mean, the healthier the economy, if you have a healthy enough economy,

even if tax rates are lower, revenue is higher because everyone is earning more. And so even though they're giving a lower percentage of their income to the government, it's actually a larger amount in total. I got to say, I love how academic we brought this conversation, considering we started with 50 Cent saying F Trump and Chelsea Handander being like, hook it up, baby. He doesn't want to be 20 Cent. I understand. I'm looping it back because of Lil Pump.

Let's do it. What happened with Lil Pump? Now, 50 Cent wasn't quite able to sway me, but I want to hear what Lil Pump had to say. Lil Pump posted an Instagram photo of him shaking hands with Donald Trump. Oh, snap. What is this nonsense? I don't know if it's real. Is it a real photo?

I don't know. Here's the thing. Lil Pump is one thing. If if little yachty endorses donald trump then there's no way that he's losing little pump made a video where he was like something like i think i don't know exactly what he said i thought he said something like f joe biden no way i'm paying another 30 something percent in taxes trump 2020 this this matters to all of these artists because cardi b used to did something similar she's like i'm looking at my taxes this is insanity how are y'all paying this much in taxes no she's a fucking pardon my french oh my gosh i'm so sorry um she was talking about how um bernie is how her guy i don't understand it i know from taxes being crazy because everyone wants the government to

pay for everything while still not having to pay more in taxes dude it's really it's really simple it's like listen all of us are sitting right here. I would like to vote to take Seamus' tie. All in favor? Yep. I'm not voting this time. Thank you. Thank you.

Thank you. And it is your fault. We did it last time. I was tricked twice. No longer. I'm going to vote in favor if Seamus gets a keep his tie. Can we get? No, I'm not voting for that either.

What are you doing? I'm staging a protest. Hold on. Stop. Stop. Evil happens when good men fail to act. I would say it's a tie. I have a solution. I vote in favor of taking Ian's shirt.

All in favor. I remembered. This is your shirt, Tim. I took it from you. Well, I want it back. So, hey, how do you guys feel about repealing or paring down income tax? Oh, yeah. Abolish the income tax.

You think abolish the income tax? Yeah. No, I mean, like, that's not something we could do today, but eventually. I mean, again, theoretically, I'm okay with some level of taxation because there are certain government services that need to be paid for. But historically, we mostly paid for that with tariffs or heaven. God forbid sales taxes. But it's not as if an income tax is an absolute necessity for running a government.

And you essentially find people. I mean, you actually alter people's time preference based on whether or not they have the assurance that they'll be able to keep the money that they're working for. So you can make the economy. And I would argue do make the economy less productive just by having an income tax. Okay. Okay. so you can make the economy, and I would argue do make the economy, less productive just by having an income tax. Okay, okay, but haven't the people of Earth already proven they lack the cognitive ability of self-management? Therefore, we must tax 100% of their income and dictate on their behalf

with the AI controlling all of their actions? Yeah, of course. How could I forget? No, if we just hook everyone's brain into a computer, let Mark Zuckerberg run this whole thing. Jack Dorsey's already running it. That's what we all realize. Twitter is the's already running it. Like that's Twitter. Twitter is the interface for the simulation. Could you imagine if like, you know, actually this the simulation, I understand we're trying

to make the simulation more fair for everyone. And the only way to do that is if conservatives aren't allowed to speak. So so so we have this image of Jack Dorsey as this like hippie guy with a beard was talking really slow. But I'm just I'm loving the idea that like after – so I sat down with him. We talked for a little bit before the Rogan podcast. We talked a little bit afterwards and he very much – it was very similar. I'm just imagining as soon as he got in the car, he like – the beard is fake and he pulls it off and he's like, now, back to Twitter to take over the world.

And he's got like a freaky fake movie accent and like you knew it i imagine twitter headquarters inside everything's like all of the walls are black metal paneling with red lights everywhere and they all wear these like uniforms and it's just jack saying like manipulating people choosing political opinions picking the winners and losers what stories are allowed allowed, what aren't. What if you mentioned Jack Dorsey is already controlling everything? Yeah, he is. What if it's literally him? I kind of love Twitter. What's wrong with you?

You're sick humans. I got my account in 2008 when I was doing YouTube. A bunch of us YouTubers were like, Twitter, hey, the next new big thing. I was like, I just got Facebook. I don't want to get a third thing that's the exact same as Facebook. It's the exact same. If I'm going to do a text message to my followers, I'll use Facebook. Don't bother me with the new stuff.

Yeah, exactly. I just recently started using Twitter a couple months ago, and I love it. You know the best thing about Twitter is? I hate it, but I feel like I hate it. I've learned to love it. You know why? I do. Because you're a masochist.

That's called Stockholm Syndrome, Tim. No, no, no, no. You like Twitter because you're identifying with your captor. You're eventually enslaved. I started paying a bit more attention to Michael Malice's Twitter account. Oh, he's all right. That's fair. Okay, all right.

He rules. And I've learned from him because he is the king. He's literally the king of Twitter. When he responds to Donald Trump with, we don't deserve him, I'm like, that's it. He's figured it out. So now I don't capitalize letters. I'm like, that's it. He's figured it out. So now I don't capitalize letters. I just tweet. You don't put commas.

You just go. I just stopped caring completely. And I want them. I figured there's nothing you can tweet without someone's head exploding. So I'm like, I'll just don't care. I tweeted, it'll be really funny if Joe Biden wins because actually it'll be Kamala. Whatever, I just i just whatever i just thought of something and now i tweet it

basically like my shower thoughts he does yeah and then he writes sad in caps with an excellent i have a theory about why you get shower thoughts i know why it is because you're there's information in water water has i don't know i already don't agree with you hypothetically if i was crazy i would say there's information in water. So toilet thoughts. Yeah, so when you're getting bombarded with all this water, you're getting the information of ages past. Seeping into your DNA. Yeah, we don't live in Breath of the Wild, where the liquid information lands on your tablet.

If that's true, then Jack Dorsey's doing a crazy job running this simulation. Dude, yeah, it's amazing. I have thought about it, and I know why it is. It's because we're isolated from tech. That's all it is. We're not allowed to... If that's true, then Jack Dorsey's doing a crazy job running this simulation. Dude, yeah, it's amazing. I have thought about it, and I know why it is. It's because we're isolated from tech. That's all it is. We're not allowed to hold our own thoughts. In the shower? Yeah.

Well, people like shower thoughts all the time. Shower thoughts didn't originate with technology. Don't they say that? No, no, no, but she's saying, like, I never called it that. You're removed from distractions. Right, exactly. I'm distracted. Look, I'm sitting there at my computer all day, and I'll be reading the news, and I'll

just, like, think of something and just tweet it. Yeah. And I don't capitalize letters anymore no he gave up um yeah you know you know you know why because it used to be like i remember he doesn't like capitalism i made it i made a joke no no you guys are gonna love this i made a joke something about uh they said greta thunberg endorses joe biden and i thought my tweet was very clearly meant to be like sarcastic or satirical. I said, no, I think it was.

I think most people got it, but some people didn't. I said, this is collusion of the highest order. We must not allow Sweden to get away with it. Something like that. And I'm like, Greta Thunberg saying she likes Joe Biden is clearly not. But I got a bunch of leftists all like high-fiving each other and laughing, being like, Tim's so dumb. He really thinks she's colluding. Sweet.

And oh, he's so stupid. And I'm like, I'm into it. I'm like. It's hilarious. Yeah. I just, you go for it. Yeah. I've tweeted.

I don't know. I stopped even trying to explain jokes because it's not smart enough to edit. I have a really similar story. I tweeted on the topic of Twitter. I tweeted, Twitter's been utterly destructive for society and Jack refuses to shut it down. Why he's made upward of fifteen thousand dollars running it like as a joke just like a vast underestimation and then i was like and i was like actually i think it might even be twice that like more than twice that and there were one or two people who commented like i think it's more than fifteen thousand dollars that's how i learned to love it yeah because i remember i made a joke a year or so ago. And everyone was like, you're so dumb.

And I was like, guys, I'm joking. Hashtag JK. No, no, you can't do anything. It's like. Joshing around. No, it's like you put out a tweet and people can't tell it's a joke because sometimes these things don't read through. There's no point in trying to explain it.

No. Just roll with it. Just go into it. So my response to people then was like, I just went with it. I was like, it's collusion. Like, how dare you? And then I started accusing Biden of colluding with Kazakhstan because Borat. Yeah, because of Borat.

And people were like, these people, they're just like, he's doing it again. He's so dumb. And I'm like, I'm into this. I'm just going to do it. It's a good tactic in some ways because you make some certain number of your opponents look very stupid when they take the bait. That's not it. I'm,

if I have a joke, I'll make a joke. No, no, I'm not saying that that's the reason you're doing it, but that is like an added benefit. Like, wow,

these people actually genuinely believe this. I think most of them probably know it's a joke, but my favorite is when something is obviously joke. Cause I've seen this happen to other public figures where they'll say something ridiculous intentionally and people will go, whoa, you really believe that? And then when they make it clear that they were joking, the response is like, oh, he's playing it off as a joke now. It's clearly something he meant.

That coyote thing. Yes. When Donald Trump was like, the kids are being brought over by the coyotes. We need a wall with fake tunnels painted on it so the coyotes will run into it and be flattened and then you get all these blue checks i'm just imagining they're all sitting around high-fiving each other they're like smart it's the craziest thing i was talking to this guy i know and i was

like dude he's like a leftist and i said you got to realize man all of these people you understand they're dumb right but they think they're smart. Midwits. Michael Malice talks about this. Yeah, 100%. Midwits. I love it. They think they're smart. And they're like, Trump's so dumb.

He thinks dogs are carrying babies. What a moron. It's like, do you have Google? The coyotes are not dogs. But it's not the phone. No, no, no. The crazy thing is. I saw that.

I saw someone saying dogs. It's not the first time that's happened. Yeah. No. In 2018, Vox.com had to write a whole article because their audience is too stupid to know what a coyote is. So they were like, no, Trump didn't mean dogs. But because they were trying to defend their audience, they're like, but maybe he kind

of did. No, he never meant canines or whatever. What's the Latin family? Lupus. And I'm too embarrassed to ask Tim, but what's a coyote? A coyote is a child trafficker.

No, no, no. A coyote is a brown creature that walks on two legs and purchases explosives from the Acme Corporation. Donald Trump is stupid. He thought that they were bringing babies over. Can you believe that Trump thought Wile E. Coyote was chasing a roadrunner with babies?

Trump is so dumb. He's so dumb. Andy Kaufman is one of my idols. We need to fit. We need a bunch of sticks of dynamite to stop the chaos. We need to get me a giant helmet and put me in a cannon to launch me as the coyote. My problem with satire is that if you're someone in the news or that people trust, if you do satire, I am afraid that it draws your entire body of work into question.

But you're funny as hell. And I think there's something to humor. Like, if you weren't funny, you'd be one-sided. I'm willing to bet many of my jokes on Twitter are not funny. I don't care. Twitter is my place for shower thoughts. I'm not a comedian, but I do commentary. So if I make commentary that's potentially humorous or whatever, I'm doing commentary.

So a lot of people have fallen into this. So you've got a lot of actual journalists whose job is to be a journalist but they go on twitter and they post activism and snarky humor all day now i understand they shouldn't be doing that i do political commentary analysis and i make jokes in my analysis i would say it's a small percentage of very very small where there's like sometimes people tell me like i watched your video is really funny and i'm like i'm not doing a bit like i don't have jokes i don't script anything i just give my like take on things and sometimes

I'll say something that's same thing with Twitter sometimes I'll just be like here's a point and like I'm being sarcastic people yeah

I get like that when I would see like news anchors in movies and I'm like wait are they a news anchor or are they an actor and I wonder if they're like

Anderson Cooper like is he you know you know what really freaked me out was when John McCain was on Saturday Night Live. Because he was really good. He was funny. I was like, wow.

He's actually a good actor. I remember that. That was right before the election. That was his October surprise. I'm hoping Trump's October surprise is he brings Corn Pop out. It's too late. Corn Pop tells his half of the story story and it turns out it's completely different like like joe joe biden was sniffing his hair and just being like just all horribly unprofessional

lifeguard wait that's trump's october surprise trump's day he's like we have the great we're bringing out the great man who needs no introduction. The great corn pop. The final piece of Hunter Biden's laptop. We like corn pop. Then the final piece of Hunter Biden's laptop is like corn pop's contact information. And they're able to reach out to him and bring him on stage. Oh, man. I love that. You know, to be completely honest, like the weirdest thing about the corn pop story is

that it's really obvious Joe Biden was terrified of these guys. Right. Well, yeah, they got the rusty razor. But why is it laying them on the cement? Why is why is why is Joe Biden telling us a story about the one time a guy threatened him with a knife and he got scared and apologized? A razor. Well, because he stood out there with a chain because Bill Wright told him that the mechanic

who showed him where all the pool filter is. Dude, do people like him in? And he said he said, if you don't, you get that chain that goes across the deep end and say, if you don't get out, I'm going to wrap this around your head. And if you don't do it, then you can't come back.

And he was right. And so Joe Biden went out there and he threatened Corn Pop. He threatened him, but also apologized at the same time. He's like, if you, I should, I shouldn't have called you Esther Williams, but I'm sorry I called you.

Is Tucker Carlson doing the Bobulinski thing tonight? I don't have called you Esther Williams but I'm sorry I called you is Tucker Carlson doing the Bobulinski thing tonight? I don't know what if the whole big reveal is that the secret documents they got was not Hunter Biden collusion it was just corn pop photos of him he's a friend of the Biden family

the whole thing was fake Biden made the whole story up whole story out to find corn pop dude he just corn pop searching for corn pop corn pop was a good family friend who biden just threw under the bus and he's like completely destroyed his reputation and now joe biden like now corn pop's life is over it's ruined he like can't get a job doing anything you want to be you want to be you want to be real though i'm willing to bet the corn pop story wasn't his story for real though for real though no oh yeah i'm willing to bet it like happened to his friend why would that why is that the story you'd plagiarize like i don't get it hold on no no no no why why the first biden to ever work not work in coal mines and go to college when like that's kind of a noble thing

to discuss it's not even true is it no no that didn't happen there was a british politician there was a british politician who's like why is it that i am the first in my family to be college educated my ancestors are working the coal mines and joe's like why did my family work in the coal mines jack and then came up and did yeah and i was the first one to get to go for to the pool filter um and it was it was almost word for word it was like a per this wasn't like joe biden plagiarizing some you know pro-democracy pro-freedom banality you could hear any politician say he was drawing from this man's life experience and family history uh and but i could understand why because it was kind of an inspiring story why would you make the corn like i just don't get it

i hear what you're saying but it's you see the johnny carson lie about about corn pop you see the johnny carson bit from way back when we we did mention this on the show a couple days ago whatever but it was a big scandal that he was plagiarizing and so johnny carson was like you know joe biden's had to drop out of the race because he's been caught plagiarizing and to uh to calm his staff down he said don't worry there's nothing to fear but fear itself yeah i remember that that's fantastic hold on Hold on, hold on, hold on. That was four score and seven years ago, right? Yeah, something like that. Wait, wait, wait, wait.

You ask why did he tell this story, and I agree. Why did he tell us this story? But why did he tell the story about the kids playing with his hair in the pool? Oh, that's so gross. What is wrong with this? That was the same day. That was actually the same day. It was the same thing.

He's like, I got hairy legs. Oh, my gosh. What is he? He's come up and mad them down. the same it was the same it was the same thing i got hairy legs and the one thing oh my gosh have you ever actually like listened to the full thing it's it's crazy i animated the corn pop story so i did we had like two and a half minutes but it's it's like or myself and my team when when when grandpa is out of it you know he's out of it and he's rambling and you're just like what do we do and your parents are like just just let him he's abe simpson yeah he's out of it, and he's rambling, and you're just like, what do we do? And your parents are like, just let him tell his – He's Abe Simpson. Yeah, he really is. He's Abe Simpson.

That's true. Wow. Are we going to all laugh? He's plagiarizing Abe Simpson. Oh, my gosh. His entire persona was lifted off of a Simpsons character. Gosh, this makes sense. Did you see he accidentally called Trump George?

That? We're going to get four more years of George. Yeah. What? Well, hold on, hold on. Apparently, people are saying that George Lopez, I guess, was hosting it. And so he just mixed up George and Trump, George Lopez. I thought you meant George Bush.

Well, he didn't say George Bush. He didn't say George. Because George Lopez was the host. Okay. So he thought George Lopez was president. Here's the thing. I'm kidding. He mixed up the names.

But the point is, Jill was sitting next to him going, Trump, Trump. Whispering. Was she really? Behind every great man is a sitting next to him going, Trump, Trump. Whispering. Behind every great man is a woman. No, no, no, no. Listen, listen. You watch these videos and you see Jill Biden and Joe. And it's very obvious that we are we are like on the line between a like you've got real candidate here and you've got weekend at Biden's here.

And you've got that thin line where Jill is standing next to it. You see that spoof commercial they did where it's like a movie trailer where a guy and this woman come downstairs and she's like, wait a minute. That's our candidate. And the election's a week away. And it's a dead Joe Biden. And then they're like, they weekend at Bernie's him. I would love to see Jill Biden break down in tears about how sad she is for joe's i would feel horrible if that happened but here's the thing with jill biden just joe

biden specifically let's say he is actually in perfect mental health and it just happens to be the case that he makes these gaps really often let's just say but let's just say that that is a possibility okay that is still not the person you want leading the free world you don't want that person negotiating with foreign leaders you don't want that person giving speeches that need to be given in order to inspire the american people like he's got to be able to string some number of words together without making a serious error could you imagine if he's sitting like trump is negotiating these historic peace deals and he's not like he just i guess the challenges putin to a push-up contest calls him fat look fat no no no. And he's not like he just I guess the. He challenges Putin to a pushup contest.

No, no, no, no. But he's talking to Putin. He goes, Vlad, we got to do a deal with the 700 trillion billion seven thousand. You know, you know, spaghetti sauce. He's going to if this dude can't speak and he gets names wrong. Imagine if Putin sitting there and then instead of saying, like, we're going to give the U.S. You know, we want you to give the U.S. X amount of dollars. He accidentally says North Korea.

And then they do it. They give North Korea the money. And then. No, but then Biden signs a deal and they're like, yes. I don't think that could happen. There's got to be fail safes there. But that's still really funny. That's still hysterical.

Biden gets. I will say that. That would be be a great movie that would be a fantastic film like i think i think the corn pop thing is a press is like a decisive like what will happen if joe biden gets elected he's gonna be like yeah i'm just gonna make a big stink and then whoa wait a minute i gotta be honest yeah wouldn't it be awesome to get some of these by like he's like addressing the nation's like it's like an oval office address to get some of these he's like addressing the nation it's like an Oval Office address and he's sitting there he's like all confused his eyes half closed

and then we just get a rambling grandpa story just like randomly that'd be kind of fun it's like you're sitting there you're stressed out from work and all of a sudden they're like

ladies and gentlemen the president of the United States of America and he's like oh you know one time I was going down to get a loaf of bread and then sure enough

it was corn bob he comes back and you know he's got his knife and it's like just rambling grandpa story. It cost 20 cents, I remember, before they sliced it. Yeah, I remember. They never sliced bread. But Corn Bob had his knife, and so I had the bread, and he sliced it for me. With a rusty razor.

Yeah, man. He used to put it in a rain barrel and it banged on the curb i don't even know what that means oh my goodness don't you remember tim that's what everyone does on the south side of chicago putting razors in a rain barrel like is it was this like one of those switch razors or something like a straight razor like you shave with and you'd bang it on the rain barrel put it in the rain barrel what does that mean on the curb you just you'd get it rusty the rain barrel, put it in the rain barrel, bang it on the curb. What does that mean? You'd get it rusty. Joe Biden, I love how he was discussing this as if this was something we should just all remember doing.

He's like, I remember you used to put the razor in the water barrel. No, I never did that, Joe. Actually, I don't think anyone listening did that either. Can you imagine as he progresses progresses and starts like losing his filter and then regresses back to like you know the 1960s or whatever i actually feel really bad for him i don't know how bad his condition is but like if it actually is so part of me thought like he just had a stutter because that's what the media has been saying so i was like no i'm totally kidding but i'm totally kidding i'm totally kidding not well he's not all right now they're

saying he has a stutter when he was a kid biden was famous for making gaffes for his entire political career uh he there was this weird thing that we saw we saw with clinton we also saw it with obama where you'd have this like really articulate uh presidential candidate and then their vp was just kind of a bumbling guy who couldn't say things without gaffes like that was kind of al gore and and i remember my perception even as a kid was that joe biden just the Al Gore to Barack Obama's Bill Clinton. He's just clumsy and he misspoke quite frequently. Not that he had some kind of stutter in the media, never said he had a stutter. And now that he's making these ridiculous gaffes in, you know, telling stories about a corn pop in his leg hair, I guess they think that's some kind of impediment.

No, no, no. Speech impediment. Like, that's some kind of impediment, some kind of speech impediment. Like that's how they're trying to play it off. There was a woman who said something about this and some reporter, I'm blanking on who it was, but it was on one of the mainstream media outlets. They're like, you're making fun of him? How do children in this country feel

when they see you making fun of him for his lisp? It's like, what? Did you see? No, no, no, listen, listen. That was Laura Trump, I think. The issue that concerns me is when Joe Biden biden joe biden called donald trump abraham lincoln it was the it was the weirdest thing to me because he goes abraham lincoln here's the most racist president we've ever had and i was like i was like wait wait wait let me stop it could have been funny my my brain

tried to very quickly decipher this because the first thing was like okay my immediate assumption is abraham lincoln over here he beat george no no hold on i was like he said abraham lincoln here is the most racist president ever had but then i'm like there's no way he would call trump abraham lincoln on stage is he saying abraham lincoln is the most like the actual lincoln no no that can't be either so you wait hold on he called trump abraham He meant to say this guy talking about Abraham Lincoln is the most racist president we've ever had. Was Trump talking about Abraham Lincoln? Yes. Okay.

Then it makes a little more sense. No, no. Stop, stop, stop. Early on, Trump said, I have done more for the black community than perhaps Abraham Lincoln. Except Abraham Lincoln. That's right. Since Abraham Lincoln. Since Abraham Lincoln.

I've done more for the black community except perhaps Abraham Lincoln. So hold on. So wait. Which was also a hilarious moment. For sure. I was dying at that. For Joe Biden to think he is getting Trump by calling him Abraham Lincoln was the craziest thing I'd ever heard. Did Obama get sworn in on the Lincoln Bible, his whole thing, as he wanted to be just like Abe Lincoln?

Yeah, at first. But then he realized he was selling out. He proceeded over the beginnings of a civil war, so I guess they weren't so different. is he wanted to be just like Abe Lincoln. Yeah, at first. But then he realized he was selling out. And then he was, yeah, proceeded over the beginnings of a civil war. So I guess they weren't so different. Yeah, I wish Obama had gone full Abe Lincoln. But did you, no, no. He had about two months before he got co-opted.

I bring this up because of Trump's response to being called Abraham Lincoln. Yeah. He loved it. He was just like, they called me, no, no, no, listen. And it's done.

No, no, no, no. It's true. He said something like, you just called me Abraham Lincoln. Where did that come from? And Biden was like, ah, no, listen. Honest, done. It's true. He said something like, you just called me Abraham Lincoln. Where did that come from? And Biden was like, ah, bah, er. It's like he had nothing to say.

Like he didn't understand. And Trump was like, you just called me Abraham Lincoln. What is this? What is that? And he, like, Biden looked crazy. Yeah.

He looked nuts. I want to pull that up. I wish we could pull up clips and show them on the show. Can you pull that up, Jamie? We can evolve the show to do that. I can look at it, but yeah. Jamie. Eventually we could probably, I would love to get, have like cool stuff up and show little clips and show them on the show. We can evolve the show to do that. I can look at it.

Eventually, I would love to have Lids, I didn't mean to call you Jamie. I'm sorry. Oh, yeah, we normally can, but we're in super chat mode. We are technically in super chats, guys. Oh, I want to watch that. We should switch. Yeah, let's switch. Call to Maeve Lincoln, dude. I know.

I actually really want to see that. It was so good. Donna Stabe. Donna Stabe. I love it. Thank you. He called Trump. Lids, I'm glad somebody noticed that, Lydia. And I called you Jamie. actually really want to see that it was so good donna's dave i love it thank you he called trump lids i'm glad somebody noticed that lydia and i called you jamie i'm a horrible friend i thought that was like done did he just did is trump gonna bomb every day trump trump should want a commercial

like of of of joe biden calling him lincoln no but joe joe biden posted it to twitter he clipped it and then he posted twitter like he's trying to reclaim it. That's right. I saw that. No, yes. Actually, my girlfriend was just talking about that. The clips that Biden was posting on his Twitter still had gaffes in them. Yes.

I was like, this is the best you could do? There's no way to avoid it. There's not. Nobody tweeted out. Abraham Lincoln over here. And I was like, did he think posting a clip of him to make sure everybody sees it was a good idea? Is this guy trying to lose? No, no, no. Hold on. Joe Biden's traveling around

the country, right? He's going to like three states the next week. But why? He's trying to secede. Hold on. Answer me this. Why is Joe Biden going to any of these states? I don't know. A presidential campaign.

But no one shows up and he doesn't speak to anybody. There's no crowds. Dude, he's in like a Popemobile. Completely insulated from everything. Did you see that weird video of Cher? That really weird video? There's no one in the audience. And she goes, who do we want to win? And they go,

I'm not, I'm serious. They just groan like that. I'm not kidding. If she had said, who do we want to beat? They would have been like Trump, but they're like, who do we want to win?

They're like, well, technically no one, but like we'll take Biden. No dude, you got to hear it because it's the crazy, it's one of the craziest political videos. If you can,

I want to do the Abe Lincoln thing up, please. Let me see if I can find it. Abe Lincoln thing is on my Twitter, but no Abe Lincoln thing. The Abe Lincoln thing. Let me see if I can find it. The Abe Lincoln thing is on my Twitter. But no, no, seriously. This Cher thing. Shameless plug, Tim. And then she goes, okay, I guess I'll sing and then I'll go.

And then the music starts playing and she's singing, but she's standing there like, and then her lip sync was off. But I kid you not, she goes, who do we want to win? And she's stuttering. Oh my God. I'm being serious. Are they saying Joe? Is it like Joe?

No, they're just groaning. They're like, are they going out? No, they're saying Joe. I think you've got to find the tweet. I was saying Boo-erns. Boo-erns. Boo-erns. Look up the...

No, no, no. Not this. Not this. Google search what is going on here or something. Okay. And like Twitter. If I can find it in like two seconds, we can look at it. Yeah, it was just tweet. Like someone posted a clip. It was so weird. What is going on here or something okay and like twitter if i can find it like two seconds we can look at it yeah it was just tweet like someone posted a clip it was so weird what is going on

here on here twitter twitter that's fantastic you'll find this is funny his base is energized this has been the most entertaining month of the year for me i don't know about you guys no i hear well well biden's base was energized but then they had to put a lid on it and so now they're going to slow it down yeah yeah exactly too much gotta take it down again share biden really at the end of the day it's too you're too tired burn it oh man i've seen some of the weirdest like political videos coming out of the biden campaign i have to wonder if they're really trying to lose so anyway here's this is why i asked about like what is why is biden going to georgia or whatever he's not campaigning to anybody why is he going he walks into a closed room there's no one there but a few reporters he gives a speech and then he leaves

yep he's not firing anybody up either they're trying to lose or they're so confident in their cheating they don't need to actually do anything to win yeah well that's the same thing that happened last time right they just assumed they were going to get the vote so they didn't actually do the proper campaigning like hillary didn't visit the states she needed to visit because she just assumed she was going to win. I would like to think that they're smarter than to make that mistake again, but they did nominate Joe Biden, right? Dude, what were they thinking? Did we talk about this last time I was on? I remember having this conversation with somebody, but basically, I think we did talk about this,

but for my entire life, the Democrats and left-wing people just found it hilarious that Reagan's mind started to go towards the end of his presidency and how ridiculous and incompetent Republicans were for having a president who was starting to lose his mind. It's like, OK, like you guys chose Joe Biden to be your candidate when there were other options, when he was clearly not in a place to make any real decisions for himself, let alone the country. And it's a bunch of people with mental problems that put him in that position, I think. I think a lot of these 60, 70, 80-year-olds that are still relevant fiscally. Do you think that's it? They remember Corn Pop too? Yeah. They're like, dude, I do remember putting razors in the rain barrel.

I did that. These millennials. I thought Bernie Sanders was going to get the nom. Did you really? 100%. You are so optimistic. putting razors in the rain barrel like i did that these millennials yeah i mean i thought bernie sanders was gonna get the nom did you really you are so optimistic he had the fire i don't like bernie but that is an optimistic take and i appreciate that about you but he had the voter base and all of a sudden biden got all his news attention and then they were like and it's biden but bernie blew it because bernie basically begged them to not nominate him he didn't fight hard enough.

Look what Trump did. Trump was like, these people are horrible. They're part of the swamp. They're monsters. We're going to drain it. Get rid of them. They're screwing you and your family over. Bernie Sanders would talk about like sort of his narrow area where he's very proficient

at speaking, which is basically about income inequality and what conditions are like for the working class and how we can help them through his model. And whenever it came to the other candidates who are actually responsible in large part for the problems that working class people in this country are facing, you'd say like, oh, well, like, I like this person there. I know they're a decent human. I know that like Trump didn't play that game at all. He didn't pretend to be friends with them. And he also said, and this this is important he did not say

that he would endorse whoever they nominated if you if if they stole if they stole it from you last time and then this time they're asking you if you will endorse the candidate if you're not nominated you are literally begging them you are you are saying to them please take this from me steal it from me i will endorse whoever you pick instead of me and that's what bernie sanders did so it's his own fault. Bernie sold out. Yeah. We got the tweet. Yes.

I don't know if we can hear it, though. The least racist person. I can't even see the audience because it's so dark. I don't care who's in the audience. I'm the least racist person in this room. Okay. Vice President Biden, let me ask you very quickly, and then I have a follow-up question for you.

Abraham Lincoln here is one of the most racist presidents we've had in modern history. He pours fuel on every single racist fire. That's hysterical. Started off his campaign coming down the escalator saying he's going to get rid of those Mexican rapists. He's banned Muslims because they're Muslims. He has moved around. I don't think they're going to show the part where Trump's like, what? Look at his face, though. they're Muslims. He has moved around I don't think they're going to show the part where Trump's like what? I didn't say it was ever.

Last time we were on stage here, he said, I told him to stand down and stand ready. Come on. This guy is a The poor boys. The poor boys. That's hysterical. I watched, I didn't watch the entire debate, but I watched the part where Trump

said that he was the least racist. I i didn't catch biden calling him a blinkin i must have only been half that's hysterical why did i miss that when he goes and i also love that trump says he's the least racist person in the room implying that like the people in the audience are more racist 100 more racist than he is dude i love it but no it's hysterical and biden's response was fantastic and trump did a much better job this time because he just let Biden talk. Exactly.

He kept interrupting him the first time. It's like, no, you just got to let Biden go. Give him enough rope. Seriously. Yeah, go ahead. I didn't watch it the night of.

I watched it the next day and I put the YouTube video on 1.25 speed. So much better. That's right. Oh, yeah. I think what happened with Biden, I just enjoyed watching trump's face i really

enjoyed it the reactions that's the least race oh the end with no no the part with the banning the fossil fuels and trump was oh oh yeah do you know you know what dude this would just break the internet and the world dare i say if trump just did like a just got a twitch channel and did a stream he's banned from twitch are you serious yes isn't that dude if he just got like if he just did like the twitch stream thing banned from Twitch. Are you serious? Yes, isn't that awful? Dude, if he just got like, if he just did like the Twitch stream thing with his face as an icon in the corner,

just like watching and reacting to like a Joe Biden rally. He's like, just like making his face like, what is he, what is he talking about? What is his bad,

he's been in government for, he's dead, he's used it. 47 years, he's dead, that would be beautiful. Dude, you know how many super chats you get?

He would raise enough money to run his campaign. He would rake in so much money to win re-election. If you were listening, make a YouTube channel. You don't get it. He could use a fake name like Bonald Brump. He'll just use Drumpf. Yeah, use Drumpf and then make a Twitch channel and they won't know.

What do you think AOC is going to do for her presidential run? She's going to be on Twitch taking bits from Amazon, and she's going to be doing super chat. What's the one thing you can't say? I mean, she's good at marketing herself. I disagree with her. It's the best she gets. I disagree with her on basically everything, but she knows what she's doing.

She knows how to appeal to the audience. She's got 10 million followers now. She has a good crew, too. I think her crew is really the good marketing. Yeah. Yeah, I think so. I agree. I think she's just good at generating press, like being a spectacle.

And what was it? She recently complained that Trump called her AOC. She got all offended. Yeah. It's things like that where, you know, I'll tell you this. One really important way to get press attention in this political world is to purposefully gaffe. So AOC says something that's absurd, like, how dare Trump call me AOC?

And then her opponents are like, A media free media well that's the same thing um people people will appreciate a likable idiot over an unlikable genius so if you go out there i'm not necessarily saying aoc is an idiot right she says a lot of stupid stuff but if you go out there and you say something really dumb but you are likable and aoc for as much as i disagree with her she is indeed very likable she is yeah and so getting eyes on herself is really good for her brand she doesn't have to hide away yeah and and she's again like she that's why she's doing this uh she was doing a twitch stream where she was playing what game was it i forget among us among us yeah and so even if she makes these gaffes people oh you know it's only human everyone makes mistakes but she has this factor of likeability

that i don't see another politician so maybe i'm a little more friendly to her even if she's just clearly wrong about x y and z whereas i mean there there have been political leaders in the past who frankly i mean usually they don't get very far who don't make quite as many mistakes but they're just like ron paul they're boring i wish i love ron but actually they don't get very far, who don't make quite as many mistakes, but they're just like... Ron Paul. They're boring. I wish he... I love Ron Paul.

Actually, I don't see... I disagree. I think Ron Paul was unbelievably charismatic. Really? Yeah. The fact that he was able to get young people as invested in the issues that he got them invested in is really unbelievable. How do you get college students interested in monetary policy and high school students

interested in... That's a serious thing. Yeah. It's like, guys, all those movies, man, they made people crazy. That's true. students interested in monetary policy and like high school students yeah it's right guys all those movies man they made people crazy that's true but ron paul was also and here's what's great about him ron paul was the most donated to candidate by combat veterans wow i'm in all of american history and this well and this is also part of why the only real anti-war movement we could ever have in this country would like have to be a conservative anti-war movement or

libertarian anti-war movement um why is that and i think there are a number of reasons i think that one thing conservatives have an advantage at when it comes to helping people who've been involved in wars see the error of it or want to adopt a more dovish foreign policy is they can say look i agree that all the things that you believed you were fighting for and were told you were fighting for are good things i think it the things that you believed you were fighting for and were told you were fighting for are good things. I think it's noble that you believed you were doing the right thing, that you went over there. But like, let me lay out why I think that you were being lied to and why these wars

were not actually good for the American people. Right. The right wing can do that. The right wing can say, you thought you were fighting for our country. You thought you were fighting for our flag. You thought you were fighting for God. Those are good things to fight for. But I don't think you were actually fighting for them.

I think you were lied to. Let me explain that. Whereas with the left, they're like the flag in this country and Christianity, these are all stupid things. And it's dumb to ever want to fight for them. Like their movement is so unwelcoming to veterans who might reject the wars later on, which many of them do. I mean, one of my best friends, he fought in Iraq and Afghanistan, and he's the most anti-war person I've ever met in my entire life. But he's extremely conservative.

And that's one thing he would always complain about is that every single anti-war movement he would try to get involved with was explicitly left wing. Yep. And so if we want an anti-war movement, it has to be an anti-war movement

that's welcoming to veterans. And even if the left wants to claim that they are, they're not. They just aren't because their values conflict so heavily with theirs amen well there we go 100 should we do should we do this yeah sure sure we got a lot of super chats sorry uh but for those that don't know this is shamus of freedom tunes yeah there he is freedom tunes on youtube it's funny uh how you describe it political satire yeah i just do like little short political cartoons punchy political cartoons sometimes educational stuff but just mostly goofy do that jack dorsey one banning the new york post story is really great thank you thank you please check

it out folks freedom tunes that's o-o-n-s yeah all right yeah so uh super jets we got matthew hammond it says trump 2020 on a bullhorn well it's taxed when i'm a bullhorn so unfortunately let's see uh about time you or a youtube moderator unshadow banned me from your chat what was that all about anyway couldn't even send super chats that's weird i don't think we have any why would we prevent someone who was it that said that uh this is uh rosa nanti do we you're not so much for free speech tim i know i would never we're explicitly anti-free speech here in the Superchats. No YouTube is. You can't say certain words. I believe it.

Sorry dude I'll look at it. Kendall says does Freedom Tunes have a Venmo money on there to donate? Oh that's I wouldn't need it. Do you have Patreon or something? I do. You have Patreon? Yeah I have Patreon. Why? Well the reason I have Patreon is because we tried using Subscribestar but it just was not raising enough money for us to realistically

keep churning a cartoon out every month. And also, all of the other tech platforms like YouTube and Facebook and Twitter are just as bad as Patreon, but we still use those because it's how we can get our message out. So yeah, patreon.com slash freedomtunes or paypal.me slash freedomtunes

if you want to donate to what we're making. I do have a Venmo. It's like my personal Venmo, but I don't think it would hurt if I threw it out there for anyone who wants to. I don't remember the name of the account well i got a quick question mr sparky says it's from eight o'clock acb got confirmed 52 to 46 so who who who didn't vote i don't know is it aoc you mean acb did you say yeah i see aoc oh I'm just stupid as it turns out okay all right all right so so so my Venmo is at shame it see my name is horribly difficult to pronounce and spell so it's s

at s e a m u s dash c o u g h l i n if you want to support the cartoons Seamus Coughlin we're doing yeah it's basically that's spelled Seamus dash Coughlin um we're doing actually right now we are doing uh decent ad revenue which is really uncommon we've had a great past couple of months but the ad revenue is really unreliable and it'll go up and down so crowd funding is mostly like what we can depend upon for something sturdy so yeah if you want to help us make more please donate especially because we do really short videos oftentimes and youtube the two things that youtube doesn't like are conservative content and animated content. And I do both. And short content.

And short content. Yeah. And I do. That's what I do. I have good news that will cheer you up. On election night, we're going to be serving Jill Biden's famous chicken parmesan. I'm there. I was debating showing up.

Do it. I'm really pumped. gonna make it included i'm really pumped so she put out this tweet she's like her famous recipe for chicken parmesan or whatever it's basically just chicken parmesan we're gonna make it and it works it works no matter who wins the night i know we're not gonna know who the winner is but if biden wins then you have to eat it unhappily like we're eating biden's but if if trump wins you get to gloatingly like chicken parmesan. I love chicken parmesan.

It's like eating out of your Jeb guacamole bowl. Right. Yeah, man. Yes. Do they have those? Yes, that was a thing. Can I have the Jeb guacamole bowl?

Yes, it was. Hold on. I'm going to buy so many of those. Let me make sure I'm not being fake news, hashtag fake news right now. But I remember seeing this, and I'm pretty sure, I would not have said it

unless I was pretty sure. I'll buy a bunch of them. We'll serve guacamole out of those Jeb bowls, man. Yeah, Jeb guacamole bowl. Weird menu, but okay. Jeb guacamole bowl. This is from Amazon.com. I think they're in short supply because I don't know if you guys know, Jeb's campaign has been suspended.

No. But I know. I know. Here's how Jeb can still win. Oh, no. At Amazon, we have official Jeb Bush 2016 guac bowl guacamole yeah so you

you can they're gonna sell out in NPR everyone's buying them right now everyone's buying them right now isn't it interesting though I just pulled up this article how even like

left wing platforms and publications will still sometimes promote a conservative if they're establishment enough that's the beauty of capitalism well this is wait wait wait this is an NPR article on revealing Jeb's secret guacamole recipe.

I need to stop you. Wait. I think you may have just made a terrible mistake, Seamus. What did I do? You see, now we've got 40,000 or so people watching, and they're all going to go buy these guacamole bowls. Hold on. And Jeb is going to resurrect at the very last minute that was the

real like that's the 2020 election he sells 40 000 guacamole i know the 2024 candidate he buys he buys the billboard you don't want biden you don't want trump you want jab and then people are just like i'll take it i want it and that's how you get jeb dude i honestly i'm about i look if that happened so be it no he runs 2024 and he wins jeb wins because of me just at the last moment he's like you know what maybe i'm gonna do this i sold so many guacamole bowls i was able to buy all the ad space the youtube mast had just the most expensive real estate advertising banner ad and and it's all all of it is is that meme of him going like ah the country is all jeb pr for jeb for the next x amount of years going forward a banner out of him eating that

clock that's all i need just happy can i am i legally like can i can i can i post a jeb ad like am i allowed to do that yeah well i'm pretty sure you are right didn't we just waste money and like get a billboard of jeb yes like jeb Jeb. Jeb guacamole bowls. This is not legal advice, right? But we were just discussing this earlier, how when it comes to campaign finance laws, there's really no law, as far as I'm aware, against using your platform to promote a particular candidate. There aren't any hoops you have to jump through to do that.

So maybe, Tim. I mean, frankly, I think we just did a great job promoting Jeb Bush right now. I would say so. I really do hope that by the time we finish, I can still pick up some of those guacamole bowls. Yeah, I'm looking right now like anxiously. I should have got one.

Dude, I just created a Jeb Bush guacamole bowl bubble. And right before the election. He's going to make some hires. There's going to be a BuzzFeed article. Why is the price of the Jeb Bull guacamole bowl spiking?

It's at $3,000. I have bad news. It's like Bitcoin. Right now, I'm mostly i'm mostly seeing on red bubble i'm seeing things like t-shirts no like stickers so i don't see the actual bowls i saw one on amazon maybe you're just not looking hard maybe someone bought it that's possible maybe there was one left oh and now it's worth a million dollars customer oh these this is customer reviews so i don't know if these are actually and these reviews are not that great they're all like one star dude these are all bunch of reviews this is hysterical there's one five star review that says fantastic bowl and there's a two star that says meh low energy oh my gosh i love it all right all right okay now that now that we've we've gotten our guacamole bowl fix let's read some super chats yeahats. Yeah, you're right. I'm sorry. David Nash says, hey, Tim, you need to get Maura Moynihan on.

She's a journalist with the Epoch Times. She has an astonishing body of expert knowledge, especially China's global strategy history read to bet Uyghurs. Would be superb, Gaston. I've made her aware of you. Stay frosty, brother. Interesting. We'll definitely look into it. Is it Epoch or Epic?

Epic. Epic Times? Epic Times. They always talk about china right they're the people who do the ads before every single youtube look at this look at let me show you this newspaper of what china's doing it's like look this is really sick and then he like pulls out very hip yeah they used to be they used to be considered uh credible by newsguard and then newsguard changed because they said it was really funny there was one story they did

about a trump rally and they said they didn't include any negative information about it therefore they're pro-trump and not disclosing that they're pro-trump therefore they're not credible so i kid you not i was like they just logical to me just reported on the rally that it existed like what do you what that's crazy man oh i'd love to have a china person on what are you saying right now what's going on cancel him just to talk about it because i need more information you mean an expert on chinese oh my gosh all right all right all right let's survive super jets samuel eddie says time traveling tim pool visits his younger self telling him he's voting for trump young tim's reaction present uh young tim's reaction present present Tim's reason and response. Then an older Tim pool from farther in the future.

And he sounds like Alex Jones. Yep. We're now in the Alex Jones phase. There's always something to look forward to. Kid Truck says just voted Saturday. I know you might not relate to him, but it felt good to press the button for Trump. I was too young to vote in 2016. Also, have you seen the Donald Trump dot watch website?

Very scary. I did. it's where it lists uh so they basically took all the fec data of all trump's donors and plotted on a map so you can see where they all live yeah i don't like that that's a good idea that's probably really safe so what if someone did it to biden you could do the same thing did that to biden i think that would be harassment tim that's wrong hold on that would be wrong yeah think about what would happen if someone trump but right think about what would happen if someone made biden watch biden.watch the media would go insane right yeah and then wouldn't it be weird that the media would be like oh how could they do this it's like

donald trump watch exists too how is that any different the media would clearly freak out over the biden thing meanwhile the trump thing staring everyone in the face i think a lot of that double standard has has slapped people in the face since 2016 like the obvious lies just ridiculously obvious lies i had a friend tell me recently that people in their family you don't even watch mainstream news anymore because it's all just obvious lies good for them i know a lot of people like that in chicagoland area yeah the weirdest thing is you know i used to watch watching mainstream i used to watch cnn all the time i used to have cnn on all the time about a year and a half ago. And it started getting worse and worse.

And I think it was around the time that there was like a storm was coming. There were like riots happening in some country. And then CNN was just like, well, Donald Trump. And I was like, okay, this is getting weird. Like I can't turn on Fox and Fox actually had the news. And so then I was like the CNN challenge, you know, turn on news and see if you can find it yeah well it's interesting how biases really manifest uh fox news will give you a very conservative spin not like a super conservative spin but like an establishment conservative spin on a story cnn will just straight up not tell you the story right so uh karma and kerosene says tim come check out our band on youtube we're called karma and

kerosene we write heavy guitar music with pro-liberty, anti-authoritarian themes. We're trying to make American music great again. Very cool. Well, I have some big news. I think we're like less than a, yeah, I think I'm like five days away from releasing my music video

for Willow's. Oh man, I'm so excited. I can't believe how good it sounds because I did not think I was that good at music. But once the producers go through it and like, you know, so I did the guitar, guitar the vocals and i wrote the story and the lyrics and everything the video is incredible i'm so excited for this and i actually i asked to help with the video

and tim slapped me in the head it's true i watched just square across the face several several expletives and racial slurs and it was just horrible things yeah just all these anti-irish slursish slurs and I've never asked to work with Tim again frankly I didn't even want to be here the way I see it is you're way more Irish

than I am so it's kind of like I take some damage in using the slurs but you take more so it's like acceptable losses that's true

I'm used to it alright here we go Mr. Sparky says Clarence Thomas is going to swear in Amy Coney Baird tonight I love it yeah I saw that

wow talk about owning limbs, baby. Oh, beautiful. That's hysterical. Good old Clarence Thomas. He was educated by Catholic nuns in Savannah, Georgia. Correct, sir. He's my kind of man.

Both of the theocrats of the papal states of America are getting together to strip us of our religious freedom and turn this country into a handmaid's tale is what's happening right now, Timothy. Have you noticed the people who think that originalism means they want us to live in the 18th century? That is, no, it's an Amish thing. No, they think originalism, like there's people tweeting like, if perhaps if you think we should live, you know, according to the Constitution, you think that we should all, you know, wear powdered wigs.

Exactly. Well, no, that's why 50 Cent is supporting Trump because 50 Cent was worth a lot more back then. Right. He had much more purchasing power. He likes ACB. Keckman says, Tim, ACB has been confirmed. I feel calmer now that she is in, just in case

the election is contested now. Now, I know you might not be so open to this, but please, if you can, can you tweet at Trump and have him for a podcast or Shapiro or Peterson? I would love to have any one of the three. I could do all three of those voices. Trump's not coming in.

I have already said that I want Donald Trump on for dinner. You should. Why not? You're the biggest political YouTuber or biggest explicitly political YouTuber. I think. You could hit him up. I don't know exactly who is, but I had over 100 million views in one month. What we talked about is like Joe Rogan is the biggest, but he's not like he talks about

everything. Like in terms of people just focusing on politics you probably do. Well so I'll put it this way on YouTube. I don't know who is the biggest but I don't know very many

who get over 100 million. Dude you're one of the hugest in the world. Trump could get first of all I could just upload a YouTube channel with my cell phone

and it would be it would be better. I'm bigger than Vice News. One of my channels is bigger than vice that's crazy donald trump jr follows you does he follow you on twitter yeah yeah you could probably hit him up that'd be awesome to get him on the show you should just tweet my video maybe don jr for sure maybe maybe maybe don would don jr would be down to come and hang out no why not

we're gonna do a really big show on election night where we're gonna have the cameras turned and just like an open format and we're gonna have like 20 or 30 past guests and different people just showing up i need to get in shape yeah and we're gonna and we're gonna serve we really are going to be serving jill biden's chicken parmesan i'm not kidding who's cooking that uh is it gonna be vegan lydia no we are we are gonna make a vegan version we are vegan pizzas you're bad what's happened to this country? Whoever eats the vegan stuff, I know they're voting for Biden. No, Adam is voting for Trump. I'm just joshing around. We got vegans out here.

We got vegans here for Trump. That's true. You know it's bad when the vegans are voting for Trump. Oh, man. I thought it was bad when the skateboarders were voting for Trump. I was deep down. I was worried. I'm like, man, are all these skateboarders going to be super anti-Trump?

Because I want to invite them out to skate my mini ramp. No, they're all pro-Trump. That's really funny. It's creepy how pro-Trump they are. I was talking to this girl a while ago, and she's talking about, like, her neighborhood in Georgia, in Savannah. And she's, like, she's kind of lamenting. She's like, yeah, we're not, like, neighborhoods changing. Like, all these, like, vegans are moving in.

And I was like, is vegan a dog whistle for white people? Like, is that what you're saying? She's like, yes. She said yes. She's like, yeah, you caught me. You caught me. Yeah, man. All right.

I got a super chat. The other white nerd says, hey, Tim, I can't cover the full $500 Seamus owes you for the Freedom Tune. Oh, that's great. But hope this helps. Also check out Adam Lichman's 13 Keys. He predicted Biden. But after the peace deals, let me see.

There's a one out of two here. Where's the other? Where's the other half of that? I like that. I don't know where the other half is. Make Seamus mine. Anyway, I will say, that's right, Seamus. You've never paid me that money you owe me.

Hold on. Here's the thing. I've given you more than that value back in terms of my presence in your life. I'm a good friend. I'm a ray of sunshine that you're privileged to deal with. I'm going to need to see receipts for that. Yeah, I don't know about that. Look, Ekin.

That's fair. Literally, all I've done is just sponge off of tim i come here i crash i crash on his couch i eat his vegan pizza yeah we did we did have a vegan pizza earlier it was why would you tell people i did that i straight up ate vegan pizza and i'm sorry and Dad. I know you didn't want my life to become this. We bought these things from the store that are called Diarrheidos. And I said, is that a Lestra? Is that those Alestra chips? Hold on. That's disgusting. Stop.

Stop being rude. They are. Don't be rude. It is vegan. Don't be rude. It's a vegan cheese called Daiya Cheese. Yes. And they sell Daiya Cheese Burritos.

Yes. So we call them Diarrheidos. Terribly named. Really poorly named they sell Daya Cheese Burritos. Yes. So we call them Daya-ritos. Terribly named. Really poorly named. Daya-ritos. They're delicious. It's very good.

I hate the name so much. I make the joke every time, you guys. Don't worry. All right, let's see. What are these people in the Super Chat talking about now?

Oh, we got a ton of Super Chats. This is crazy. That's great. Thank you guys so much. There's your 50 bucks, Tim. Yeah, there you go. I love you.

Oh, yeah. Judge Wade says, We know that universities are incredibly corrupt and have bloated administration and social justice programs. I support student loan forgiveness, whereby the schools has to pay the wasted tuition back to the lenders. Yes. And aren't a lot of these universities really just hedge funds disguised as colleges?

Like they invest all of this extra money, and then they sort of have an academic infrastructure on top of it but they mostly just fill all their positions with like they create a bunch of administrative positions and none of it goes towards educating the students so they probably a lot of those institutions probably have the money that's all i'm saying maybe now i know i can't actually say that with certainty i haven't seen the figures but i i'm still fine with it if anyone suffers it should be them someone someone has said Ian is incorrect. I don't think I'm going to pronounce your name correctly.

D. Zochitl? Zochitl? Is that how you pronounce it? Ian is incorrect. Or D. Zochitl, okay. Ian is incorrect. President Clinton signed the 1998 HEA where students cannot discharge student loans in bankruptcy. Oh, really? Ian?

Yeah, Ian. How dare you disparage the good name of George W. Bush? I told you I didn't sign that bill. Well, first of all, thank you. I never did that. That wasn't true. That was a guy before me. I wouldn't do that. That's ridiculous. Oh my gosh.

Okay. Now do Bill Clinton laughing about it. Like gloating that he did it. Maybe I did shine. You know what I love about Family Guy? When they made Clinton like a sexual deviant. Yeah, they just made him weird.

Yeah, they made him weird. They made him weird. Yeah, that was weird. I know. They really pushed into it. Yeah, of course. So there was the one episode the other day. Oh, man, I don't even want to.

I can't even go there. I'm going to say what happened. Do it. So it's the one where it's Halloween, and it's Meg and Chris are in costumes where you can't see their faces. So they're doing seven minutes in heaven. And then they're like, what are they doing?

And then, you know, it turns out Meg and Chris brother and sister are hooking up in the closet. Cause I couldn't see. And then they're all screaming like, what have we done? And then Bill Clinton runs in and goes, Oh,

I guess we're all getting it on this one. Oh my gosh. Oh no. Okay. Next thing. Next thing. Next big super chat. Graph on Tyrell says,

here's to a bountiful salt harvest. Thank you. Hashtag spin the UFO. UFO. Well, I've got bad news. But I've got good news. Yeah? There's no UFO.

Oh. But on the way are floating potted plants. Oh my gosh. What? You for real? On the way to what? On the way here. And so we have multiple air blowers

so we can all spin. What? You guys are going to tell me about this? I'm so stupid that when he said on the way are spinning plants, I was like, I didn't see anyone else on the way here. They're coming. They're coming. They're in the mail.

They'll be here soon. Tim, you didn't tell me. I'm crushed. I'm so excited. I want to get one for my office. That looks pretty darn cool. I'm sure that's pretty cool. And I guess you put wheatgrass in it or something.

Oh, that's awesome. Maybe we can put a big flower and it just spins. I wonder what the plant goes through when you're spinning it around like crazy. They say that's good for plants. Spinning them at height? Yeah, because that's what they do in nature. I was going to say, this seems natural. Like how earth spins.

I've once seen a rose going about 1,000 RPMs once. It took off. Yeah, exactly. That's how they pollinate, dude. Oh, yeah, Once his feet took off. Yeah, exactly. That's how they pollinate, dude. Oh, yeah, it's true. Yeah. Oh, my gosh. Could you imagine if flowers did that?

Can you imagine if a plant is walking around outside and they're spinning and then shooting in the air? You have to watch out because they launch. Oh. Oh, my gosh. So, yes. I need to live in this world. I can't imagine that.

That sounds like fun. Here we go. Darth Starbuck says, maybe the solution to money in politics is educating people to be smart about basic political manipulation and the age-old P.T. Barnum tricks that still work today.

Here's the thing. I don't know if we need a population where everyone is really well-educated. We just need a population of people who are virtuous, can work for themselves and provide for themselves and their families and want to.

And that's a form of education. You've got to teach them when they're young. That's true. Your parents teach you. You have to learn early. What if we had just like a culture of people who took

whatever they wanted whenever they wanted and didn't have any morals so they were totally willing to just kill and steal. That's actually a good idea.

Everyone just went around. Maybe everybody would go around wearing like leathers with battle axes and just take from whoever. That would make me

very mad. And then all that would be left are like super ultra ripped seven foot tall dudes roaming the earth taking what they want eaters yeah yeah max only angry yeah maxly angry correct hungry all right here we go right okay ronnie justin w says hey tim my first baby daughter is due in december god bless him and the top recommended baby book on amazon for my baby registry was anti-racist baby oh good good even better i won't be buying any baby books from amazon why do you want to have

a racist baby well come on man first of all it is not enough for your baby to not be racist your baby needs to be anti-racist actively actively actively anti-racist baby yeah man joe jorgensen for the win that That's right. True libertarianism. Wiggles says, removing student loan interest removes any incentive to pay off the loan. How about applying all of your federal income tax towards the student loan? That lowers the debt burden and lowers the government incentive to

subsidize colleges. No, I don't think I will. You'll fine them for being late on their payments and not undo those. Yes, and you can also just garnish their wages if they don't pay their, if they're not paying. So your interest is gone, and and you can also just garnish their wages if they don't pay their if they're not paying so your your interest is gone and if you can't pay when you get a job we garnish your wages what was the second party that he said as the other option of having your federal income tax go to the student loan to lower lowering the debt burden and lowers government incentive to

subsidize colleges no because then what happens is a bunch of people who decided not to go to college or went to trade school or went to community college so that they could save money are going to be burdened with a higher income tax because they have to pay off other people's debt like that that actually wouldn't be the right solution right here we go stevie piece stevie b says target smart and rcp useless dem versus republican cancel each other out look at independent section in poll trump to lose wisconsin and michigan trump barely wins florida north carolina pa unclear that's fascinating look man the polls are insanely pro-biden but i could you imagine a biden presidency it would be great he would end racism yeah he would he would forget where he was

yeah forget it'd be funny it falls you know what year was really funny forward thinking chank you would start freaking out he would forget he was president I gotta say though isn't Joe Biden disqualified because he announced he was running for the Senate twice oh I wonder if there's like could you imagine could you imagine Joe Biden wins

but then Trump finds some obscure loophole where because Joe Biden accidentally said he was running for Senate he disqualified himself from running for president and then Trump wins by default. By the way, I'm a Scottish lord. I might have told you. I just mentioned I bought some land in Scotland. You can buy like 10 square feet or 100 square feet of land

and then you can become an official lord of Scotland. 100 square feet? You can get one square foot and become a Scottish lord. But I think if you hold a title in a foreign country, you can't run for office in the US. So I might have to give away the land at some point give it to back if i want to get into politics or give it to just just annex it for the united states yeah and then you'll get elected you've already donated more land for this country i love it here we go tom m says i think polls are off for two reasons definition of likely voter no longer valid models aren't correct i.e trump

voters crawling over glass yeah remember the sliding uh bar model you covered a couple percent can cause landslides i'm gonna tell you something i voted me too i voted i wanted to i voted republican republican congress president yep senate for the first time in my life and then for there was like something on it about like teachers i guess i just i just wrote in ron paul ran paul and i wrote an ian i was like i don't know what did it what it is so i'm not voting for people i don't know them and i was i did know that the republican and i'll tell you this man uh i have friends and family members who grew up chicago chicago democrat hate the republicans voting republican me too and if you have gotten me to the point where I could make a video complaining about Democrats and still be like, but I'm not voting for Trump, to finally be like, okay, fine, I'll

vote for Trump. And you got Johnny Rotten doing it? Yeah. And you see these videos of like this young green haired woman who gets in her car and she's like, F it, why not? I voted Trump. Wow. Like it's going viral.

I didn't see that. I was just thinking about her yesterday. So he secured the green haired vote. Yeah, the green hahaired vote um yeah the green-haired vote well no and this is something i noticed myself i mean back in 2016 i wasn't a big fan of trump he kind of scared me i thought i don't know if he's actually going to be a good pro-life president but look it was him or hillary the supreme court's really important so i very reluctantly voted for him but it's funny because so often i remember hearing from left-wing people

i voted enthusiastically for Obama the first time and reluctantly the second time. I feel the exact opposite. I voted reluctantly for Trump the first time. I am voting enthusiastically for him the second time. I have seen so much of that. John Maroffa says Walter Mondale promised to raise taxes in 1984 and lost in a 49 state landslide to Ronald Reagan.

That's right. And all of the polls said that Reagan was going to lose. Really? Yes. The entirety. I don't know about all of the polls said that Reagan was going to lose. Really? Yes. The entirety. I don't know about all the polls, but I know that the mainstream media was basically painting it to suggest that Donald or I'm sorry, that Ronald Reagan was going to was going to lose the election.

And what he won. It was it was a landslide. He won. Could you imagine? They're both populist actors. Trump uses Reagan slogan. It's the second term. And then so and theniden tried to do like a

basically the same slogan but more clunky build back better which is the same thing and i saw one i saw one sign for biden and i'm not sure if it's one of his campaigns official slogans or if it was just the one that the artist made but it was like restore the soul of our nation i was like yeah make america great again like it's literally the exact same thing they don't have any could you imagine if we see like the polls being all all wrong i i did look i tell you what there's one reason i want trump to win in in the media capacity i want comeuppance i want the american people to be like what is wrong with these people because the first time it's fool me you know it's fool me once we say, well, the media got it wrong. They made a mistake. We're going to watch them.

And they got Russia wrong. They got Ukraine wrong. They apologize for that, though, Tim. No, listen, I'm kidding. I want the polls to be like Biden up 20. And then Donald Trump wins 49 states. And then everyone looks at the media and screams. What is wrong with you?

Maybe. And we had a we had a smaller version of that in 2016. We did. I'd like to see a reboot on a much larger scale. A lot of people forgive the media for this. Now you got Nate Silver, who's like... They've forgiven worse. Nate Silver tweets,

it's really bad that I already know what Trafalgar Group is going to say before I even click the link. It's not. Because Trafalgar predicted a Trump victory. It's like, I don't know what they're doing, but I know what they're going to say. And it's funny because I'm like, I already know what you're going to say when I click your link 538.

You're like, Trump is losing by 50 billion points. And then I open Rasmussen and it could go either way. Rasmussen some days like he's doing good. He's nice. You know, they do the daily tracking thing and it goes up and down. I don't trust 538 because everything they say is entirely predictable. Yep. It's like, I know exact.

You know, it's really funny. There was an article. Apparently, 538 has one of their forecast models showing Trump winning California, but losing the Electoral College. It's like it's like their models are insane. Here's the thing. I made this decision in 2016 that I was just totally out of the business of making any prediction about anything relevant to donald trump but had you asked me a year and a half ago i would have said like yeah i think trump's gonna win like i think he's got his hands in the bag this i'm actually

not sure you know think things have changed so much it's kind of i feel like it's kind of close right now yeah i'm actually excited like i don't's actually like, this is not in the bag for either of them. I'd be, yeah, I would be very sad if Biden won, but it's hard for me to say that I would be entirely shocked. Yeah. I don't know. I know that they- And they could steal it too.

Yeah. Because most people I know, most people in my circles and most people who I just deal with online, yeah, are voting for Trump, but that could just be my own very biased circle. I don't really know. Outside of that, a lot of people are really angry with Trump and fed up with him, and they've been convinced that all of the social instability we're experiencing right now is a result of his presidency, which I disagree with, but they see it that way.

So I could actually see him losing because of that. But you know what? I don't agree, but it's a possibility. I think it's hard for me to believe all the polls are going to be wrong to be honest like these are serious these are seven points off like this is insane for all these polls to be wrong but we have several polls saying trump's winning democracy institute trafalgar group resmussen and these are not like pro-trump organizations or are they so trafalgar group got trump right in 2016 okay and now they're saying these polls are missing the shy trump voter which is going to swing it for trump that's you democracy institute

sunday express is british yeah so it's like if we've got some poll saying he's going to win is it stupid to just pick the polls you like that's what people are doing yeah always i'll tell you man it's the economy stupid yeah i think trump is still trump is still winning the polling on the economy yeah and you mean you mean to tell me that for all of it? Listen, if if I told you you go to the average person and say we're going to put a guy across the street from you who whenever you walk out your door, he yells random insults like moron, fatty, fat pig. But we're also going to give you 500 bucks a month cash money.

I'll take that. Exactly. They're going to be like doesn't challenge you to do push-ups and sniff your kid yeah exactly i mean like would you be would you be willing to have a guy screaming at you every time you leave your house if it meant you got cash every month well this is the thing i'd laugh he's not screaming at me he's screaming at people who don't like me well he's like screaming at the media for the most part he's like yelling at people who view us with contempt would you would you invite me all that much the way i put it is like this imagine you like your toilet breaks yeah and it's been broken for a long time you're really upset and the plumbers you hire aren't fixing it and you're like okay

i'm hiring a different guy so you hire a different guy he comes in he's he's overweight he smells bad his butt cracks popping out and he keeps swearing and insulting like your dog is so dumb let me go with an ugly dog and then he fixes your toilet and he's fixing it you're like wow he's doing a great job it's like it's starting to work we've never our plumbing's never been this good ever great man and then the other plumbers are outside screaming at you insulting you saying you're you're stupid for hiring this guy don't hire him fire him hire us again and you're like listen man this guy's in my house he won't shut up it's really annoying me but those people didn't fix anything.

The truth is, I would look for a third plumber. Yeah, I'd look for a third. I don't know. I can't work with jerks. But if we had the best economy in generations, it was the best numbers of our lives. I don't agree. I'm the best plumber. And I'm not even going to charge.

And I'll give you a discount. Maybe the discount. Actually, now we're talking. A jerk plumber that's good that gives me a discount? Yeah, I'll rehire him. Trump gave us some of the best economic numbers of our lives. And everybody was saying it. Except for the Democrats.

They don't want to admit it. But Jim Cramer on CNBC said it. Well, this is also the other thing with the plumber analogy. Part of where it breaks down is, with what I mentioned earlier, the people he insults are people who have contempt for us. And also people who politicians have not stood up to in the past like republicans have always played ball at the media really disgusting desperate humiliating cool yeah yeah don't call me mean names and uh look where that got him you know trump doesn't care peter bema says biden truth over lies funniest yards i've ever seen truth over them resef says tim robert barnstein said that he

thinks that nate silver is purposefully purposely telling pollsters to pump the poll numbers up for biden so they can say trump stole the election that's funny i don't buy yeah i don't buy i'm not in all the silver doesn't control the university of texas polling like that's ridiculous yeah i mean there's something to be said for the fact that people pick polls and especially people in the media pick polls that make it look like their candidate's going to win because they want to discourage people who would vote for the opposing candidate. So there's something nefarious there, but that's a little much. Hollowed by Be Thy Game says, take some China sanctions and pay towards student debt. Love the show.

Yeah, there you go. Let's see. Makai Bree says, breaking now. ATF to redefine AR AK style pistols as falling under NFA. Follow military arms channel. This puts millions of owners at criminal risk. Massive political move to derail Trump. Why would that derail Trump?

Trump would come out and be like, we're going to stop that. Trump would say, no, you can't do that, stupid. He would actually come out and be like, we're going to ban bump stocks. Exactly. Yeah, that was sad. I didn't like that very much. It's very rough. Callan Shaw says,'ve been told george washington university is a real estate company that occasionally gives out diplomas wow here's the thing about george

washington i like presidents who didn't cut down a cherry tree okay yeah that's fair didn't didn't abraham lincoln do the same thing i think it was the same story cut down his dad's cherry tree yeah it was like i i planted more of them and i did up, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, Kalanchoe goes on to say, also Seamus is in fact a ray of sunshine. This is true. I'm glad somebody thinks 100%. Thank you guys. All of you is very kind.

I'm going to tear up a little. Don't do it. Truth. Truth. Truth. Seeker says, I'm in Wisconsin left lib voting red. I bet Wisconsin is closer than they think.

I think their models are broken because information exchange is too rapid. Yeah. And I also don't think I don't think they understand how COVID affected predict a polling. Like, how do you predict what COVID did? Yeah, totally. Listen, listen, listen. That's fair. If in March, when they announced the lockdowns were coming, some some 26 year old dude went

to, you know, his parents place. He's like in New York City for college and he goes back to you know rural pa yeah and then registers there and stays there that's a good point they're not pretty i was just thinking about mindset being changed it's just yeah people people have listen people have moved around so much across the country we have no idea who registered who's voting where it's gonna be weird man they're saying that they're saying that biden's up in texas for real that biden's polling higher than trump in texas that's really where. It's going to be weird, man. They're saying that Biden's up in Texas. For real,

that Biden's polling higher than Trump in Texas. Sure he is. That's really weird. The first time in 44 years Democrats would win Texas if they win Texas. Hmm.

So anyway, look. There's a lot at stake there. If Democrats start winning Texas, we got problems. This is troubled Ted Cruz for a while. The polls could be wrong because people,

mostly, the rich people, moved first. Hmm. Rich people in New York flee, right? That makes sense. Of course. They spread out in random directions. And then they write op-eds from their mansions in other cities and states about how New York isn't actually dead.

Yep. But how many? No, but the people who stayed are saying that. The people who fled are probably more likely to be conservative or more conservative at least. No, I was making fun of Seinfeld. Yeah. Oh, okay. For sure. Yeah. So i'm wondering if the wealthier people flee i mean actually you know what i take that back the wealthy people are funding biden this could be bad for trump

but i think it's fair to say the polls are really are probably off simply because throughout this whole past year people have been moving to different locations that is so wild yeah yeah we have no idea what's going to happen. Dang. Yeah. Nope. I do think No predictions from me. I'll tell you, I don't know what's going to happen, but I'll give you my gut feeling. Trump is going to win. I hope you're right, too. But there's going to be a bunch of weird

things happening with lawsuits and polls and they're going to say Trump stole it. Everyone, just go out, vote for Trump, pray the rosary. Yep, there you go. That's my advice. Boom, done, nailed it. There you go. Excellent. There you go. That's my advice. Done. Nailed it. There you go. Excellent. Well, anyway, it's about 1030. Seamus, thanks for hanging out.

Thanks so much for having me. But you're, but we're going to, you're, you're, you're hanging out for quite a bit. So we're going to see, we're going to see a bit more of you. Yeah. You guys are gonna have to keep putting up with me. And we're having on the, on the third where there's going to be a really big party. So we're having people come out and it's going to be, it's going to, we're gonna get weird with it.

No, we're not. We're just going to wear pajamas. I think I need to catch my flight back. We are going to dance party. I it's going to get weird with it no we're not i think i need to catch my flight back we are going to dance party i'm not trying to get weird yeah i don't know we are going to have cameras cameras we're gonna have a wide shot we're gonna have random people it's gonna be like i don't know i don't know exactly who's coming but you're gonna see like a famous youtuber to like walk up and sit down and start talking to shame i do want and cussing me out for the impression i did of them yes right no one there is gonna like me and we're

gonna be watching anywhere like this is me and you are gonna get to watch the the reaction when the when the final results of the night come in we won't know who exactly won but perhaps perhaps you'll see someone drop to their knees and scream no i hope so yeah this is what i was thinking i was like if i predict that trump wins then like a couple weeks from now i'm gonna be in like cringe comps going now screaming at the sky is biden sworn in i am gonna if biden wins i'm putting my feet up and i'm laughing man i'm just i'm along for the ride baby i'm yeah like what do you do you can attain yeah exactly i i would be very upset but yeah that's also sure that would be out of my hands right again should just pray live my life but it would not thrill me the big difference i think more children would die more unborn children

re-murdered i was like the big oh you go first the big difference between i guess like people like me and these people is that when trump lost i'm sorry when trump won when hillary lost they dropped to their knees and they scream and they cry and i'm just like you ever see that that that that gif the meme of the two women going oh my god and the guy just like you ever see that that that that gif the meme of the two women going oh my god and the guy's going yeah oh i love that that's kind of what it's like it's like if biden won i would just laugh because like the absurdity of life first of all you can't do anything if he wins what are we gonna do you know i'm gonna scream no what's the point i'm gonna i'm gonna be like well we'll figure it out. We'll have a good time. And, you know, I mean, if he defeats Abe Lincoln, I think it's civil war.

I mean, yeah, it would have to be. Yeah, I'll go kayaking. That's right. You just you got to make this. This is this is one of the issues that actually moderates and conservatives have is they go with the flow too often. Yep. That's the left goes and burns down buildings and we laugh at them.

But they are winning the culture. So listen, listen. In New York, a cop got suspended for saying MAGA 2020 over his bull – Trump 2020 over his bullhorn because people were screaming at him. They suspended him without pay. But when the top-ranking guys took a knee for Black Lives Matter, they got clapped and cheered for and all that stuff. Yeah. So what happens is the left's willingness to burn down their cities means that the pathetic, spineless, whiny losers of the NYPD will give them whatever they want. Yeah, but Antifa's got to be careful.

Like any rebellion, it burns for a little while. And then if it gets to be too much, the feds come in and annihilate it. So they've got to be careful. Well, and also the revolution eats its own children, right? I mean, all of the people who are out in front cheering for this. They're the first to go and then the intelligentsia those that fomented the revolution and rallied them yeah and then people think it's counter-revolutionaries it's like no it's not it's the i mean they're on the list but yeah the people who started the revolution are the biggest threat

to those who seize power so you know you can complain actually there's some vert no one wants the even the subversive do not want subverters in their system. But think about this. If there was a revolution, they would actually entertain a show like this to prove they're actually not that bad. So, no, we allow them to speak because we don't do anything. We don't go out. We don't march. We don't riot.

It's no threat to them. It's just us talking and complaining and then going and I don't know, eating Cheetos or something. Then they're going out with torches. Eating Diarrheal. Diarrheal. Anyway, I guess we'll see what happens on election day. So tune in. It's going to be a fun kind of open format thing.
