Starting point is 00:00:00 And we thank them for sponsoring the show. Well, no, I'll just go ahead. I mean, look, I'm money dumb. Y'all know that. I've been money dumb ever, since ever, my whole life. And the modern world makes it even harder to not be money dumb, in my opinion, because you used to, you, like, had to write down everything you spent or you wouldn't know nothing. But now you got apps and stuff on your phone.
Starting point is 00:00:19 It's just like, you can just, it makes it easier to lose count of, well, your count, the count every month, how much you're spending. A lot of people don't even know how much they spend on a per month basis. I'm not going to lie, I can be one of those people. Like, let me ask you right now, skewers out, whatnot, sorry, well-read people, people across the skewniverse, I should say. Do you even know how many subscriptions that you actively pay for every month or every year? Do you even know?
Starting point is 00:00:42 Do you know how much you spend on takeout or delivery, getting a paid chauffeur for your chicken low mane? Because that's a thing that we do in this society. Do you know how much you spend on that? It's probably more than you think. But now there's an app designed to help you manage your money better, and it's called Rocket Money. Rocket Money is a personal finance app
Starting point is 00:01:02 that helps find and cancel your unwanted subscriptions, monitors your spending, and helps lower your bills so you can grow your savings. Rocket Money shows all your expenses in one place, including subscriptions you already forgot about. If you see a subscription, you don't want anymore, Rocket Money will help you cancel it. Their dashboard lays out your whole financial picture,
Starting point is 00:01:21 including the due dates for all your bills and the pay days. In a way that's easier for you to digest, you can even automatically create, custom budgets based on your past spending. Rocket Money's 5 million members have saved a total of $500 million in canceled subscription with members saving up to $740 a year when they use all of the apps. Premium features. I used Rocket Money and realized that I had apparently been paying for two different
Starting point is 00:01:49 language learning services that I just wasn't using. So I was probably like, I should know Spanish. I'll learn Spanish. and I've just been paying to learn Spanish without practicing any Spanish for, you know, pertinent two years now or something like that. Also, a fun one, I'd said it before, but I got an app,
Starting point is 00:02:08 lovely little app where you could, you know, put your friends' faces onto funny reaction gifts and stuff like that. So obviously I got it so I could put Corey's face on those two, those two like twins from the Tim Burton Alice in Wonderland movies. You know, those weren't a little like the Q-ball-looking twin fellas. Yeah. So that was money.
Starting point is 00:02:28 What was that a reply gift for? Just when I did something stupid. Something fat, I think, and stupid. Something both fat and stupid. But anyway, that was money well spent at first. But then I quit using it and was still paying for it and forgotten. If it wasn't for Rocket Money, I never would have even figured it out. So shout out to them.
Starting point is 00:02:45 They help. If you're money dumb like me, Rocket Money can help. So cancel your unwanted subscriptions and reach your financial goals faster with Rocket Money.

Starting point is 00:03:32 since Friday. We've done five shows at the Richmond Funny Bone. All sold out, not trying to brag. Well, Friday late. Has this not... Has this not been the best weekend? Oh my God. Consider it's in one place. I mean, it's on, Richmond has been
Starting point is 00:03:48 unreal. I was telling Drew when we were out, we were out on the curb waiting on you to get out there, which you weren't late. I mean, so we just happened to be out there early. And I was telling him, like, how usually exhausted we are after like, for me personally, four or five days into a run. I was like, I feel pretty relaxed.
Starting point is 00:04:05 And I always attributed it to the booze and how shitty we eat. But apparently it's just the travel. When you take travel out of the situation and I'm just able to be in one place at one time, I'm pretty, I can get drunk all night and then still fucking fire on all cylinders at the show and feel great. So, like, this has been a great weekend for me. For sure, because, yeah, usually what we do is. Not just getting in and out of a car all the time. And usually what we do is we will, like, fly into one city.
Starting point is 00:04:30 We'll do one or two shows that night. And the next day, we get in the car and drive to a neighboring city. Sometimes that's three hours. Sometimes it's fucking seven hours. Right. And yeah. And then we drive there. We get out.
Starting point is 00:04:42 We do the show. That night, we get up the next morning and drive again. And I mean, yeah, that shit takes it out of you, man. Like, so I couldn't agree more. Being in one place for a few days, it makes it, it makes it a lot easier. Yeah, because that's what I said. I was on the curb earlier, and we were getting ready to do this show. And I felt so good.
Starting point is 00:04:59 And I was like, I've really been getting drunk for three nights. but I still feel fine. Oh, yeah, we haven't been crammed in a goddamn car yelling at each other. So it's been great. So one thing we had talked about privately recently or, you know, all fair, we're talking about the podcast last week and the episode, which was well received. Thank you all that enjoyed it. Yeah, y'all made us hit number two on iTunes.
Starting point is 00:05:22 God damn, that's insane. People listen to us. Very cool. Very terrifying. But I said to you when we were talking about posting, I was like, man, because we weren't together. We were texting. You're in Georgia.
Starting point is 00:05:31 I'm in L.A. he's in New York or Tennessee. And I was like, man, I like this episode, but it, I feel like it kind of sucks because it's coming out in the middle. It's being released in the middle of all this fucking insanity with Trump that's happening with Comey and all that shit. And we don't talk about any of that at all because it hadn't happened yet when we recorded it. And, you know, obviously there wasn't nothing we could do about that. But we back together now. and it's all still very much a real thing
Starting point is 00:06:03 is still going on. So we're going to, uh, let's go in on it a little bit. Sure. Go ahead with that. Yeah. So dive in, baby. Have either one of y'all heard of this blog? And when I say blog, it's, it's like, you know, a very legit and popular blog called
Starting point is 00:06:18 lawfare. I know. I haven't. Okay. So it's this like kind of like political, whatever blog. Uh, and the people that work on it are people that are, you know, with fucking credentials, right? And like one of the main guys, this guy, Benjamin Witts or Wittis, I don't know, but he's been in the news lot lately because he's very hooked in to all this shit's going on with Trump, right?
Starting point is 00:06:41 And so this dude, just to give you an example, like the kind of people I'm talking about, he's the co-director of Harvard Law School. He, uh, the senior fellow for governance studies at the Brookings Institution, which is one of America's oldest think tanks. I don't know any of those words, but fuck yeah. He's fucking, I'm saying the dude's legit. For sure. as far, you know. And so he and some of the other people for Lawfare co-authored this article that I just read last night, but it's from the beginning of the month, May 1st.
Starting point is 00:07:12 And it's an article called Seven Thories of the Case. What do we really know about La Faire Rousse? And what could it all mean? So it starts out with a, it's a long-ass article. Lafaire Rusee, now, is that a Cajun dish? I'd say that sounds like a French restaurant. It's the Russian affair. I didn't know that that was what the intelligentsia was calling it, but apparently it is.
Starting point is 00:07:39 But this article's long as fuck, but it's very interesting and informative. And it starts out with a summary, again, which is long as hell, of all the, like, facts, the actual facts surrounding Trump and the connection to Russia and what's going on with that and what is really happening. Well, here's where we're already going to get some hate is that we're talking about actual facts. Well, I'm not going to, because it would take too long and I think it would get boring. If you're listening and you're not familiar with it already, fucking go and read up on the shit that's happened. But we all have the general gist. That's the GMP's platform.
Starting point is 00:08:13 Facts are boring. Now, I'm saying there's no reason for me to just sit here and read this fucking article. Sure. But, like, we're all familiar with the, you know, the overview of the shit. You know, with like Michael Flynn and Carter Page and all those, and sessions. We got the cliff now. all that, right? So everybody's generally aware of that.
Starting point is 00:08:31 What I want to tell you, what I want to talk to you guys about is what? The jump off of cliff notes. I just said we got the cliff notes and like now I feel like in the White House, the dude that's actually doing the press releases is a new cliff. And these are the cliff notes. Yeah, these are the jump off the cliff note. Yeah, jump off a cliff notes.
Starting point is 00:08:48 That's hilarious. But it, the article ends with seven theories of what could this all mean. And they put them in order of in order of menace, of like malice, like from most harmless to most, oh shit, we're fucked. Right. They're not in order of plausibility. And they also say theory number one and theory number seven, the first and last theory, they think are the least plausible, but they are consistent with the facts. So I'm going to go over the overview of the theories and I'll see what y'all think, what you think is happening. They also say these theories are not mutually exclusive.
Starting point is 00:09:30 There could be some overlap between them, right? So this is the theories as far as what's really going on. Theory number one, it's all a giant set of coincidences and totally disconnected events. And so this just says it's like, yeah, these things happened, but they have nothing to do with each other. It's all just a fucking coincidence. There's nothing there. Again, they say they don't think this is plausible. Do you want to speak up individually on each theory?
Starting point is 00:09:54 I'm going to go over very briefly all seven of them real quick. And if you want me to give you any details on any of them, just tell me. Sure. But anyway, it's possible that there's literally nothing here. Like, it's a possibility, but they don't think that's the situation. Number two, Donald Trump attracted Russian people. People that had ties to Russia and were interested in Russia and shit. He just, he was an obvious choice for those people.
Starting point is 00:10:24 who work in the political sphere to be drawn to. Like Flynn's like a real, and and, Tillerson's like a big pro-Russian guy, and so he put his lot in with Trump early, and then Trump happened to win. And that that's what, and that's what it happened with all of them. That's kind of the same as number one, coincidence,
Starting point is 00:10:42 but I hear you. All right, go ahead. Right. I'm withdrew on that for sure. And that Trump just, you know, just whatever, just didn't give a fuck or didn't notice, didn't care, whatever, but that's all it was, is that he's the national. choice for these people to attach themselves to, right?
Starting point is 00:10:58 You know them TGI Fridays, potato skins? Oh, yeah. He looked like one of them. He does? No, Trump. I've been trying to figure out what he looks like. That's what it is. Yeah, it really is.
Starting point is 00:11:07 Theory of the case number three, the Russian operation. I want them now. The Russian operation was never about Trump at all. And this theory is that, uh, because the other facts of the case as far as shit that actually happened, all the intelligence community, CIA, FBI, they all agree that the Russians actively pursued meddling in our last election.
Starting point is 00:11:30 Like that did happen. Like the Scooby-Doo gang. Like they fucked with it. Like they went out of their way to try to influence it. They're not saying like, oh, they did, they made him win or whatever,
Starting point is 00:11:42 but it was a thing they were actively doing it. And they'd be doing that. It was an operation. They'd be doing that. Yeah, I've seen Rocky and Bowling. And they said, and so, and again, that's pretty much agreed upon
Starting point is 00:11:52 that they did. So this theory says that it's not it yes they did but it ain't got shit to do with trump it was about Hillary it was they were trying to undermine Hillary that they thought just like everybody else
Starting point is 00:12:06 thought that she would win so everything was directed towards you know again undermining her so when she won there'd be all these fucking questions all this shit going on that could have her under her and Trump was totally ancillary to do with all this other stuff with Flynn
Starting point is 00:12:22 well again it's the overlap thing of that the Russians were fucking with Hillary and also these Russian motherfuckers gravitated towards Trump but again that's not connected so far for me if these theories were like the seven dwarves that one would be dopey because that was dumb as shit okay theory of the case number four Russian intelligence actively penetrated the Trump campaign but Trump did not know about it. In a traded yeah so this is going to be the one that Trump supporters love the most because the word penetration and also it says that he
Starting point is 00:12:54 didn't know anything about it and had nothing to do with it. So the idea here is Flynn sold out the country, you know, maybe Manafort sold out the country, but Trump himself's hands are clean. Totally clean. He never knew anything. I would say they are pretty clean. He seems like somebody who would wash his hands all the time. And they're saying, if this theory is the case, if this is what, if this is what, if this was actually happening, then he might well be the principal victim of the operation. Oh, Trump's a victim? Well, that's what he's been wanting to be this whole goddamn time. these, again, these is all just theories and they, you know, they sort of approach it from all sides. Theory of the case number five, Russian intelligence actively penetrated the Trump campaign, and Trump knew or at least should have known.
Starting point is 00:13:40 And, I mean, that one's pretty self-explanatory. It was happening, and he did know about it and just try, you know, try to keep it at arm's length or whatever. or if he didn't, it was so like willfully ignorant, like to the point of not even being plausible that he wouldn't. That he wouldn't have known about it. Right. Right. And so, honestly, I feel like that one is, in my opinion, I think it's probably something like that. Right.
Starting point is 00:14:07 Number six. Well, his entire presidency should have known about it. Right. Number six, compromise. Uh-oh. That sounds like a laundry place in Russia. Compromat. is the Russian term for political blackmail or extortion,
Starting point is 00:14:25 which is, again, they'd be doing that, something they've, they're known to, I mean, there's a fucking name for it. Yeah, they hit it that. But, and basically this theory is, they got some shit on Trump. Either the financial shit that's, you know, why he won't release his tax returns or whatever, and they've got that, they've got that fully documented and whatever else, or, you know, the whole, the pissing shit or whatever,
Starting point is 00:14:47 or a combination of all that. Drew made a very good point about that. As liberals, we cannot be mad about him if he gets pissed on. No, it's super critical for liberals to be shitty about that. He wants to get, yeah. Don't be shitty about piss. Don't get pissed on, baby. I love getting pissed on.
Starting point is 00:15:02 Anyway, that he... Do you? It's not that I love getting pissed on. Here's what I know about squirting is that scientifically it's like, no, that's pissed. That's pissed. And I have been with squirters in the past. And it's always hit for me. I read another article.
Starting point is 00:15:14 That's totally different. I mean, I read another article. No, no, no, it is different, but technically it's the same thing. thing I was getting peed on. I read another article that said it ain't, like it has urine in it, but it ain't really the same thing. There's urine in it and adjacent to urine is still urine. Right. You know what I'm saying? Like if there's urine, if there's urine in it, if you mix piss and water together and I drink it, I drank it.
Starting point is 00:15:33 But that's the, but that's, we made it almost through the list before we started talking about piss. But that's the whole, but that's the whole thing though is that, yeah, like technically, biologically or whatever, it's either piss or super closely related to it, but that ain't why you're into it. No, of course. Which is what makes it totally different than just being into being peed on. I've never said, hey, pee on me. I'm just saying if I've been squirted upon, I've been like, good job.
Starting point is 00:15:57 I did my work. That's the most showing your work you can do in sex. It's like math. It's like, oh, I had to have done a good job. Look at what just happened. I mean, dude, you take the dirt road to Browntown enough times and you're going to run into some poop situations probably here and there. Don't make you want to get shit on your chair.
Starting point is 00:16:15 That don't make you a scat guy. Sure. I agree. I agree. Well, so to me, that's what that is. You're right. I just wanted to comment on my own sexuality. I mean, this is an important conspiracy issue that we need to work out. But, I mean, I'm also curious about this squirting thing.
Starting point is 00:16:27 Is it P or isn't it? There's P in it. I think it's basically you said it. Yeah, there's. But if there's P in it, it's P. Urea or whatever it is, like that is in that. But there's actually some like debate as to whether, okay, but does that make, is it the same thing as P or not? No, but what I'm saying, and I still feel like it holds true,
Starting point is 00:16:50 if I piss a little bit in a water bottle and then feel the rest of it up in water and you drink it, you drank piss. So it's still pissed. If there's a little bit of piss in it, it's piss. But you, so, I mean, there's probably a very minuscule amount, but just to illustrate a point. They probably piss in your wiener. Yeah. When you come, because it all comes out the same hole. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:15 Well, that don't make, that don't make. No, I'm just laughing. This is supposed to be the podcast where we talk about, like, serious stuff. And we'll get into it. And this is treasonous. But this is like, we're fucking. So I'm saying, I feel like there's a little more. You just can't mention pissing on people.
Starting point is 00:17:30 There's a little. There's a little more of a gray area, a yellow area. Then you're acting like there is. No, no, no, I agree. I agree. Because you're like, but the ultra point was what Drew's point was a couple weeks ago. It's like, I'm not mad at Donald Trump if he likes to get pissed. beat on. That's not going to be the thing I come
Starting point is 00:17:47 to him for. That's totally fine. The three of us are all on the same page as far as that goes. In discussion, that's literally all I want to talk about, was getting pissed on as fine. Okay. So, it won't happen, but it would hit for me so hard if, like, somebody who
Starting point is 00:18:03 works with lawfare and with these people actually listens to this podcast, or they just saw it, or it's like, hey, you know, to this wittisk of the director of the Harvard Law School. It's like, these guys actually go into your podcast and like he's listening to it to see what we say.
Starting point is 00:18:19 Now hold on. I'm being paid on. I was like, now come ain't paid. That's going to be the title of this episode. Come ain't pay. But so, theory number six,
Starting point is 00:18:31 compromise. They have something on Trump. And that's why all this is happening. Lord, what is number seven? Political blackmail. And again, these are in order of malice.
Starting point is 00:18:41 Theory number seven, the president of the United States is a Russian agent. and again, pretty self-explanatory. And they say, they're like, look, like we said, we think this is not very plausible, but it is consistent with everything that has happened, so we're listing it.
Starting point is 00:18:59 So those are the seven theories ranging from, it's all coincidental, nothing really is happening to Trump is a fucking rusky and everything in between. And that's it. And again, I can read specific details of shit if y'all want to, but having laid that out,
Starting point is 00:19:15 First of all, if you think there's something else that might be happening, okay, but otherwise, what do you think it is? And it could be a combination of them, whatever. What do you think is actually happening here? All right. Here's what I actually think is happening. A posit a theory. Okay. I think that Trump is and has been always very friendly with Russian oligarchs, billionaires, and business people.
Starting point is 00:19:38 He's done business there. His family, including, I think both of his wives, have ties in that general region. and like, you know, to be somewhat fair to him, like any shitty fucking lizard politician, when you get up to power, you help your friends out, right? You know, there's like a lot of that. But I'll go a step further and say, even though that's plenty wrong, you shouldn't. You shouldn't fucking help a Russian oligarch out just because you became president and used to do business with him, but people do it. But I'll go a step further and say, I think there was definite collusion.
Starting point is 00:20:09 I think Trump is sincerely dumb enough to think, well, these people want to help me become president. cool like i think he's sincerely dumb enough to be like oh that's fine but yeah i can get russes to help me become president without right and just like all his business fucking dealings he probably didn't know the day-to-day details because he hates details and he's really not very uh he's lazy sure so i think that um within his campaign i think manifort had a lot to do with it well that i think paul manifor is what ties most of this together one of the very one of the again facts of the case. This is not, this is indisputable. And to me is one of the more damning is that when Manafort was involved, and this was during the election and Trump with this was, Trump was got had gained
Starting point is 00:20:54 legitimacy at this point. Manifort got the, uh, pro-Ukrainian language removed from the official GOP platform. You know what I mean? Other parties have their platforms. They had stuff in there supporting Ukraine and Manafort while working for Trump and Manafort who has documentedized to Russia got that removed. Like, so, I mean, and here's the thing. There's some, dude,
Starting point is 00:21:22 there's some fucking shady shit going on without a doubt. Here's the thing. So let's take, and let's not go deep into it, but let's take Israel, Palestine. There's plenty of politicians who are stronger on one way than the other. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:21:36 There's politicians who are super, super pro-Israel, and there's politicians who are, you know, less so. And they want a two-state solution, and they're way more pro-Palestine in general. I can imagine someone making an argument well fucking why can't Manafort have the opinion that the GOP shouldn't be pro-Ukraine why can't Trump have that opinion
Starting point is 00:21:52 that's fine why you got to be covert about it right why you got to hide it why is all this secrecy and then another thing is since this article's come out since this article that you're talking about with these seven theories this is very important yes you're right two things Trump revealed
Starting point is 00:22:09 highly classified information to Russian officials inside the Oval Office. Given to him by Israel, by the way. Yes. And they had nothing. I mean, he did it literally on a whim. There was no talking to Israel, like, listen, we're going to share this with the Russians because we think it would benefit them.
Starting point is 00:22:25 And it politically, it's thing that there was none of that at all. He just told them in the meeting about it. And I haven't checked in on this in a couple of days because he went to Saudi Arabia and that's dominated by newsfeed in time because he took Toby Keith with him and that's hilarious. Well, as you said, you can't, how are you going to boot up somebody's ass when you have a. Take them off at the door? Yeah, if you got to take your shoes off at the door to pray, how you're going to put a boat up somebody's ass. It don't really make sense. And again, as I said in the Q&A, that may be racist to say, but I don't really know where the goddamn line is.
Starting point is 00:22:54 It's also hard to put my man, hypocrisy for my horses. Yeah. It's also hard to put a boat in somebody's ass if you're on your fucking knees. Right. In front of them. So anyway. Ooh, that's a T-shirt. I haven't.
Starting point is 00:23:06 That's a tank top. Excuse me. It's a bit. super sticker. Yeah, it is. That I would put on my tanked up. Then the New York Times reported on this. This is what I was talking about that I haven't doved into.
Starting point is 00:23:21 I think it's Dove. You know, whatever. I think you were right. Trump asked, the New York Times reported that he asked Comey to drop the Flynn investigation. He specifically asked him, stop investigating Flynn's ties to Russia. I don't understand how that's legal. And if it is, it should, like we should. Well, how is that not obstruct?
Starting point is 00:23:42 of justice just, I mean, point blank. Well, it's also, I mean, how is it not? As a lawyer, I only ever dealt with obstruction of justice in the terms of some cop drumming up charges on somebody who was like, hey, see, that's it. You can't beat her up. She didn't do anything wrong. I'm glad that you brought up cops in that situation, because to me, this is similar to a lot of people when, a lot of people that I know that are Trump supporters when they
Starting point is 00:24:05 saw the Eric Garner videos and they saw these things, they go, well, why are you running from the cops if you didn't do anything? Exactly. You didn't do anything, whatever. So when you say stop investigating this, I go, well, if you didn't do anything, let him invest. I would want you to investigate me if I knew for 100% fact I was fucking innocent. I'd go, go ahead, dig through my fucking truck. Also, hell, we had a wreck last week.
Starting point is 00:24:26 They didn't ask to search my truck. But if they had about it said, sure, go ahead. I didn't have anything in there. That's a lot. Because we had taken it out already. Because we had taken it out. On the way to the car tray, I picked up the bag of mushrooms. I had dropped.
Starting point is 00:24:40 And I knew that he had done that. So if they'd have asked me, can I search your truck? I wouldn't have caused a storm because I've been like, please search my trucks, because you'll find that I'm innocent. I rode in a cop car with mushrooms in my pocket. And I had weed gummies in my pocket. And it was white boys. Here's my fucking theory on Trump.
Starting point is 00:24:58 And I'm not educated enough to go into detail. But this is just my simple theory. He's a goddamn closet globalist that that's why he likes Steve Bannon so much because Steve Bannon is a huge nationalist so he can get Steve Bannon on his side to rile the fervor of his base up when really Trump's interests are with Russia and with China and shit like that. But as long as he seems like a fucking, what's the word, a xenophobic piece of shit, nobody will actually notice that.
Starting point is 00:25:26 And yeah, he loves having Russia in his back pocket. He loves having China and he loves having. I don't know that he has Russia in his back pocket. I think it might be the other way around. No, no. Okay. I didn't mean it the way that it sounded. But what I mean is he loves them having a relationship.
Starting point is 00:25:41 and he loves him in China having a relationship because he's a fucking globalist because as a capitalist he wants his fucking seed. It's like we saw Guardian in the Galaxy. He's ego. He wants his shit spread across everything. I know. I know. You know how I feel
Starting point is 00:25:57 about that. Oh, it's spoilers? I mean, yeah. Yeah, no, that's my bad. I won't say anything. I won't say that. But okay, but that's also in the comic, like that's not new to the movie. Yeah, but they're most people that, I mean, hell, I didn't read those comics for the movies. But do you think what I just said, if I stopped there, it's fine? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:12 Okay, then, no, I agree with you, and I won't say anything else. But he just wants to come on every continent. That's what he wants to do. And knowing that, like, there's these ties between him and Russia, he fucking loves it. And so he can get a guy like Steve Bannon, this huge xenophobic nationalist motherfucker. He can get a guy like Jeff Sessions, who was a complete racist dickbag, who is all country this, country, that. And you get confused at the fact that he's literally dealing in Saudi Arabian oil and all this bullshit. We don't look at that.
Starting point is 00:26:40 He's just fucking diverting everything. That's all it is to me. So, okay, first of all, let's put a pen in that Saudi Arabia thing, because we should talk about that son too before we finish. But to go back to what Drew was saying... Do I sound dumb when I say that? I need to ask sincerely. The globalist thing?
Starting point is 00:26:54 Yeah. I don't think... Oh, man, you sound smarter you ever have. Okay. I think you're wrong. I think it's just... That's fine. I just didn't know if I sound okay.
Starting point is 00:27:00 This isn't antithetical to what you were saying, but I think that Trump is just, it's literally just whatever suits his interest at any given time. Right, but he wants to be... I don't think there's an overriding globalist philosophy that he has. I just think he wants to spread his cum everywhere. Like, he just wants to come on everything. And that's, I mean, he's came on America. He has already came on America.
Starting point is 00:27:22 Now he wants to come on Russia. He wants to come on China. He wants to come on everything. He wants to get peed on. As we all know, come ain't pee. Come ain't pee. Anyway, as Drew alluded to, let me a good gypsy speed book, huh?
Starting point is 00:27:35 I was saying podcast episode number 16. Come ain't pee. Y'all downloaded it. As Drew alluded to him a minute ago, That is very important to note about this article is that it was written, again, it came out on May 1st. So this was put out and all this shit was lined up before any of the Comey stuff. Because there's more than just what you said, by the way, as far as, I mean, first of all, just to me, the pure and simple fact that he fucking fired Comey. Because the reason that they, the reason they gave was that ostensibly it was because of the email thing.
Starting point is 00:28:06 He didn't handle the email thing well. That is so clearly bullshit. And what other reason can there even be for firing him when he did? Because that's not a thing that happens, y'all. That ain't a thing that ever fucking happens. Before anybody jumps down our throats, I would not. No, it's not. But I would like to bring up this point before anybody jumps down our throat.
Starting point is 00:28:29 Yes, Bill Clinton fired the head. That was totally different. It was because he wasn't in the middle of an investigation upon his administration. And that guy had fucked up. up. That's what I'm saying. So don't just throw that in my goddamn face. That is different. That is insanely different. You absolutely. Of course Trump can fire somebody.
Starting point is 00:28:46 He did. And also, again, this is what I read. I believe that this is true. Outside of Clinton firing the FBI director, again, for completely, totally different reasons. Outside of that, it literally has never happened otherwise. Like,
Starting point is 00:29:02 it's not a thing that just happens. Millhouse didn't even do it. Why? What other reason is him is there for him to do it. And then, like Drew said, Trump, there's a few things that have since come out since Trump fired Comey. And there are all things that, you know, Comey is saying, and he says he has documentation to back this up,
Starting point is 00:29:21 but it hasn't been released yet. That's another thing, by the way, blockbuster fucking deal. Comey's going to testify in public towards the end of this month, and that shit will be released or whatever, and that's when hopefully something will come of that. But a million things will change between now and them. I mean, this whole Robert Mueller being appointed special prosecutor,
Starting point is 00:29:37 is, can be one of the best things for this and could be the worst. Okay. Hold on. Before we get into that, the things that apparently or supposedly happens involving Trump and the Comey deal is that I think first Trump asked Comey repeatedly, and presumably not just Comey, but everybody else too, to pledge an oath of personal loyalty to him. and Comey wouldn't do it. Right.
Starting point is 00:30:08 And number two, Trump asked Comey or, you know, told Comey point blank, you need to drop the investigation into Michael Flynn and Comey wouldn't do it. What he said was, I hope you can see your way clear of this. Yeah, because Mike Flynn's a good guy. I hope you can do the right thing. And there was another, there was a third thing. Oh, well, this isn't related to Russia, but it's just, it's so Trump and it's so fucked up. He also apparently told Comey that the FBI really should look at imprisoning journalists. Yeah, yeah, I saw that.
Starting point is 00:30:49 Because apparently he's tired of wiping his ass with the Constitution and wants to move on to the Bill of Rights. Right, right. Like, it's insane to me that any president would, I don't know, not this one. but um and uh fuck there was another thing about it well apparently and i know it was officially it came from rosenstein it was the deputy attorney general but they had said at one point that um it was sessions it was sessions who recommended that comie recommended trump that comie needed to go and as we all know sessions ostensibly recused himself from the whole deal so what the fuck is he having anything to say about it in the first place.
Starting point is 00:31:34 And Robert Mueller got appointed very recently. This happened after he fired him. Jell see this. Trump told those Russian guys in that meeting, which is the day after he fired Comey, Trump told the Russians, and this is like
Starting point is 00:31:51 documented White House transcripts that the administration has not denied at all. Trump told those Russian diplomats, diplomats that now that he has gotten rid of quote that nut job Comey all the investigation and stuff is going to clear up or whatever like he's going to very much loved for a long time right and I mean again that's not really disputed that he said that to them right now that I fired the nut job comie
Starting point is 00:32:24 we're good don't worry about it yeah we got this but I'm interested in knowing why you said I from when I saw the thing about Robert Mueller, I was like, okay, good. This guy works for both Republican and Democrat administrations as well respected for being a like buy the book type dude or whatever as far as the shit that I've seen. And I'm just glad that they got a special counsel period. And it's at on paper, it seems to be somebody who has some fucking credentials and it's pretty legit. So why do you think it could potentially be the worst thing to happen? Because it seems like a good thing to me. already used it as an excuse to say,
Starting point is 00:33:00 now we need to dial back our own probes. Let's call the dogs off. We have this special prosecutor. Yeah, well, fuck that. As a special prosecutor, Congress now has that excuse. They can say, well, we don't need to keep doing our job, American people.
Starting point is 00:33:13 We have a special prosecutor for that. And these fucking bullshit, fake-ass Republicans can say, well, we don't want to push him because we have a special prosecutor. That's his job. And then they can have the fucking good thing that they want, which is that they can keep pushing through other bullshit. legislation, which is why they love this.
Starting point is 00:33:30 The GOP loves what Mitch McConnell is so fucking happy right now. He can push through whatever he wants. Because all anybody's talking about is this shit with Trump. A, that's all anybody's talking about. And B, he's got Trump by the balls in a lot of ways because he's like, you kind of need me right now. So these Republicans can go
Starting point is 00:33:46 to their constituents and be like, hey guys, we've appointed a special prosecutor. We're doing everything that we can. And then Congress doesn't have to actually do a probe. And Congress has way more teeth than this special prosecutor because And then David Frum wrote this from in Atlantic. He pointed out that instead of just lying.
Starting point is 00:34:04 David Frum, who's a conservative. Instead of just lying, the White House can now refuse to answer questions. Right. You don't have to answer questions to special counsel. Only Congress can compel you to testify. Do you, okay. And then secondly, and some people disagree with this, but this is a sort of ancillary point, national security and public integrity type questions,
Starting point is 00:34:29 that's not really the special security guy's job. In other words, he's there seeing was there collusion, was there obstruction of justice, what's going on in here illegal? So let's say those seven things that were just laid out. Let's say that we're on the spectrum, on the left end of the spectrum that you were talking about, where it wasn't collusion,
Starting point is 00:34:47 but like a lot of fucked up shit happened, has our national security been breached? It's not a special counselor's job to investigate that. But it's still a huge problem. Yes. What about our public integrity in general? Nothing was done wrong, but the American people deserved to know that integrity got thrown out the window, not the special counselor's job. So this could be the perfect storm of this is how we get out of this and make this go away.
Starting point is 00:35:10 Guys, we've appointed a special prosecutor. I want Congress to investigate this. They don't want to because they're GOP-led and they're getting what they want right now. Okay. On that note, do you think, do you think there's... is a point, and if there is a point, at what point, will they just not be able to just fucking turn a blind eye or do the McCain? Oh, I'm disturbed by this, but not fucking do shit about it. When it becomes about them instead of Trump, and I don't know
Starting point is 00:35:41 if it will be, because A, you don't think there's a point where if they don't ever get really wrapped into it at all, if it's just about Trump, you don't think there's a point where like, something comes out that's like, okay, this can't be ignored. I mean, I can't imagine a scenario. of like paper trail proof of collusion with Trump or something like that. You know what I can imagine a scenario. But for the most part, what I believe is that as long as we on the left are still trying to vilify Trump. And then on the right, his supporters are defending him while the regular good old boy GOP is doing what they want. They're winning.
Starting point is 00:36:16 Mitch McConnell is winning right now. Do you remember when there was accusations by Donald Trump of Barack Obama not being from this context? And he finally gave his birth certificate, which was paper proof of something. And they still said, no. So I'm not going to ever buy that there's something that they can just go, oh, no, this is, you're right. I'm going to back off of my bullshit. They still said no. You're not talking about that way.
Starting point is 00:36:43 It wasn't all of the Republican Congress who said, no, no, but I mean, I'm talking about, the base. The birth or movement is still. Trux base. Sure. That isn't who I'm talking about. I know. but these people are still wanting to appeal to those people because they're the ones
Starting point is 00:36:57 who elect them and keep them. That's very true. That's what I'm saying. Those people, like Mitch McConnell and people like that, they, dude, they're not idiots. They know what's going on. If they saw concrete proof, they'd be like, oh, that's one thing. But if their base thought the other thing, they're absolutely going to just do whatever they can do to keep
Starting point is 00:37:13 getting reelected and keep pad in their pockets and keep the good old boys club going. So I don't really buy into this hole. We're going to get, oh, concrete proof, they don't fucking ever want it. They don't need it. They don't buy it. Don't. Don't. Don't. Oh, they're happy.
Starting point is 00:37:23 That's what I'm saying. Right. They're happy. They got what they want. Is there a point, though, where, like, they are happy because of the reward that they have of having him in a distraction, be able to do all the shit they want to do, I mean, ostensibly, they're so fucking incompetent so far that, but anyway. But is there a point where the risk outweighs it, meaning, like, where they have to
Starting point is 00:37:45 fucking cut bait because being complacent in what is happening? Yes. is a fucking death is a death sentence for all of them. And I will tell you when that is the moment they do it. But they're right. This is their game. This is what they're good at. And let's not underestimate these motherfuckers.
Starting point is 00:38:05 When Mitch McConnell turns on Donald Trump, it's over. It will be the moment that he had to. And that's when it's over. Right. Yeah, well, I guess what I'm saying is that turtally looking mother-buffling turtle. But I guess what I'm saying is what is that point? And you're saying when there's when there's per, like undeniable. holy shit.
Starting point is 00:38:23 How old is Mitch McConnell? There's proof of this, this happened. Or that, well, what he needs, so what you want is unannable proof so we can, like, prosecute the guy, and I'm with you. What McConnell needs is something that he thinks he can take to that base you were talking about. Yeah. And say, we had to do it for the good of the country, but, you know, we got Pence now and
Starting point is 00:38:42 we got y'all's back. Because you could, they could make the argument, they could look at it as, I mean, to me, and I'm on the complete opposite side, so whatever, but. I feel like they could look at it as, again, if it continues to get worse and there's shit there, they could spin it to their base, to the Republican base and voters as their heroes. You know what I mean? They're the good guys. They save the country.
Starting point is 00:39:05 But they just lost. We're talking about, hold on, that they just lost an unbelievably wild primary. Sure. They still aren't quite sure how and why. Sure. So what this is giving them is the opportunity to continue business as usual while buying, time to figure out how do we went because they lost them too.
Starting point is 00:39:25 It wasn't just us that lost all these people. Like the Republicans sort of lost a lot of those voters too. And McConnell wants them back and he knows if he goes and just fucking grills Trump he won't get reelected. Well, the thing about McConnell though is like, how old is McConnell?
Starting point is 00:39:42 He's old. He's old as shit. I don't think he's like crazy old by those standards. I mean, yeah, he's obviously going to be up for re-election or whatever. But like to me, he, if you can be in a lame, lame duck situation as he is, like, he's so old that, like, dude, if he got voted. Well, think of him as a symbol. Like, it doesn't, like, him as who the GOP is inside Congress. What I'm saying is, though, and eventually, like, those guys never retire, they just die doing that shit.
Starting point is 00:40:10 Sure. But he's in a situation where, like, this is the best possible time for him to be lazy. Because everything's just kind of coming up. I don't think they're built that way. I think power-hungry people, they don't think in terms of. You don't think they ever get, like, where they're like, fuck it, I'll just phone it in. I agree with Drew. It's the best possible time for them to be opportunistic and do the shit that they...
Starting point is 00:40:29 No, I understand that. But what I'm saying is, like, if Mitch McConnell fucks up and, like, they vote him out, and let's say he, I mean, he's not going to prison for anything. It's fine. Like, he's okay. No, that's not how he works, man. Okay. In my opinion.
Starting point is 00:40:41 And that's fine. I just want to throw it out there. I just feel like he's in a, like, I'm kind of on my way out anyways. Who gives a fuck? This is a great time for me to be alive. because I don't even really have to work. It's all just going insane, and I can just do this shit. Yeah, see, I don't.
Starting point is 00:40:55 Again, we could cut him out. Maybe he's like that, but let's talk about, I was talking about the GOP as a large. No, no, no, the younger one, you're 100% right. I'm talking about him being old as far. I would argue it's like the worst time for them to be lazy right now. And not because of my beliefs, but what he's saying. Progressing it forward, I'm talking about literally just him as an old person. I don't mean for the party.
Starting point is 00:41:13 I mean, Mitch McConnell, the lizard that is going to have to go back in his shell and die in five years. I mean, I think those lizards live for 400 years anyway. Yeah, you're probably right. But I just think... God, have you seen them Rothschild? Like, if you looked at their faces? It's wild. Ain't it wild?
Starting point is 00:41:27 I think they get, like, hormone treatments. They have, like, extra ducts under their... D-U-C-T-S? T-U-S. They have, like, the main, the old Rothschilds. Dux. D-T-T-T-T-T-T-S. They have, like, the oldest Rothschild.
Starting point is 00:41:41 How old were you when you found it was duct-t tape? Today. It ain't. Well, I mean, there's a very, I mean... There's a brand, there's a brand called duck, but it's the biggest. UCT, yeah, but it is D-U-C-T. But by the way, saying, by the way, I didn't see that,
Starting point is 00:41:55 Brandel, I was like 20, though. No, no. I was like 12 when I found that it was duct tape. Oh, I was way later than 12. Way later than 12. Well, yeah, you guys had duct tape people who did stuff for you. For sure.
Starting point is 00:42:07 We invented duct tape. That's where I got, I got duct tape money. God, I wish I had duct tape money. Oh, hell, yeah. But I'm saying, like. You have nothing to be ashamed of some of these nefarious.
Starting point is 00:42:19 But McConnell has, the same eyes as that Ross Child's dude. It's like they have gills. Give them sires. Like there's a, well, you want to say sirs? Yeah, but here's what I think. So, hold on, real quick, though. Like, you could be right about McConnell.
Starting point is 00:42:32 I'm probably not. I'm just saying shit. The GOP in general, they have a lot of power right now, but they don't feel very secure in that. Because they lost an election that they don't understand how they lost it. What I mean by that is,
Starting point is 00:42:49 their guys didn't win. They didn't want Trump. and that was obvious when he was running. And they got an ultimatum from Republican voters like, well, this is what we want. And so they're sitting there and they're going, fuck, we control Congress. Congress is who has the teeth to investigate this guy. And I think there's a lot of internal infighting going on. I think you have a lot of those Republican senators who have gone on record, who have tweeted stuff, who have been like,
Starting point is 00:43:14 we need to fucking investigate this. This is crazy. And then you've got other ones like McCain, who's planning on the fence, who's like, well, I'm concerned, blah, blah, blah. and then you got McConnell who ain't saying shit who's literally saying this is not a big deal let's slow the probes down because winning is all they give a fuck about
Starting point is 00:43:31 I totally agree but what I'm saying is I don't see how there's not more of an argument like even amongst them that in order to win long term they have to
Starting point is 00:43:46 fucking surgically remove this cancer that they have Because if they don't, if they don't, and it ends up being real and it ends up being a real thing and they're all on the record as basically voting against it and not doing shit about it, they're going to be fucked as a unit. Like that, and they can't come back from that. I'm not, there will be some kind of something that emerges from the rubble and will continue as far as American conservatism. But I'm saying those motherfuckers and what they are, that'll be the end of. it.
Starting point is 00:44:21 If that happens, and I would think, at least some of them would be saying that's like, look, guys, we got to do this right now. They are. And get out in front of this thing.
Starting point is 00:44:30 That's what McKay's trying to do with that wishy-washy. They're trying to get out in front of it. And what I'm saying is, when they believe that they have enough to get out in front of it, to cut Donald Trump,
Starting point is 00:44:43 you know, to throw him under the bus, as it were, and it work politically, they'll do it. Here's why they won't do it right now. His approval rating is still through the goddamn roof with Republicans. With Republicans.
Starting point is 00:44:57 That's all they give a fuck about. True. No, yeah, I wouldn't disagreeing with what you're saying. Mr. McConnell's not going to impeach a president with an 85% approval rating among his voters. Is it 85% amongst Republicans? Yes. God damn. Okay.
Starting point is 00:45:13 But overall, it's like 37. Okay. I think. Actually, that's better than I thought it was. I thought it was. I thought it was like 33 or something. The last I saw, the last number I saw was 40. But I don't know that, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:45:25 I don't remember the source of it. It could have been not. Donald Trump is the one they usually used. The one they usually used. The one of our podcast. You never fucking know week to week. But so that kind of brings up, that kind of brings up another thing about this.
Starting point is 00:45:37 Okay. Furn's hit, don't they? Fuck the, uh, yeah. Drew Eat and Drew's eat the sour candy. It's a sour bag. This is the unofficial commercial. Sour Patch Kids,
Starting point is 00:45:46 do you know they did this? A redberry, just straight up redberry pack. but I'm about that red is I saw it And I'm not going to be wrong That's that Russian influence Look at him I'm going to trade in our sirepats I just got red berries
Starting point is 00:45:57 I fuck with all the flavors But red is one of my favorites So when I saw this I was like well this is just a can't fucking mess I also got a pound cake And a gallon of milk And I ain't all that's all berries Yeah
Starting point is 00:46:07 Captain Crunk What are you fucking kidding me Best cereal of all time Do I remember I still fucks with Oops all berries It's on berries Give me one tray We're gonna get a call
Starting point is 00:46:16 We can get a call We can do it oops all berries from the Russians or Captain Marys? We're going to get a call from the Russians or the hotel? Oh, I thought you meant Captain Crunch was going to call. We didn't hear screaming out 90s serial slowness. We got like seven noise complaints last night and all we were doing was just having a conversation. All we was doing was partying.
Starting point is 00:46:38 No, that's true. I wasn't drunk. We didn't have a music on them. This would give me some responsibility. This will give me some responsibility. I'll owe somebody this. I'm trying to be sober for 30 days just to like clean my body out and feel better. and try to not be a fat fuck.
Starting point is 00:46:52 And it's going much harder than I expected it to. It's like day three. And I keep finding reasons to drink. Have you noticed how when you've been on this little cleanse, we have really respected it. Oh, fuck you. No, no, I'm just saying, every time I try to do this, you go fucking. It's mostly Corey.
Starting point is 00:47:11 It is mostly, no, I will give you that. It's absolutely mostly me. It is, but you haven't done any of this to him. Drew backs it up with, Drew, ain't the, Cho. He's not the show. You allow him to get his life back together, but you don't allow me to get my life back together. There's a lot of responsibility that comes to being a Cho.
Starting point is 00:47:29 With great Cho, comes great responsibility. But I literally have prided myself on never being responsible, so I don't understand. Responsibility to hit, that's all. But I still can hit with tuna. Okay. Anyway. For yourself. Look.
Starting point is 00:47:43 You never, ain't nobody ever hit me with tuna. Don't you try to derail us from what we were trying to talk about, Trey. Well, we're already derailed. from, I've been, Drew said something a minute ago that I wanted to ask him about, but we've been talking about sours and oops all berries and you being a drunk and not wanting to be and shit ever since then. This podcast is a metaphor. Here's my whole argument.
Starting point is 00:48:03 This podcast is a metaphor for American politics right now. Yeah, we just got to be real. No, but what I mean is absolutely the most interesting thing and probably the most pressing thing to talk about is, is Trump colluding with the Russians? 100%. We're not wrong to do that. But it's all we keep fucking talking about. about and meanwhile they're about to rewrite the student loan loss they want to send out a contract him
Starting point is 00:48:25 and devoes made an announcement today that one fucking company is going to uh handle student loans every year it gets better than i didn't go to college every year you're right you're completely right yeah and i don't i'm not trying to be a dick on that but like looking back i know considering i'm still doing what i want to do me and you make the same amount of money yeah me and you have the same job but you have two degrees and student loans and i don't and it's that's why you have to drink Yeah. And I get days off.
Starting point is 00:48:52 Yeah, and I get days off because I have to. What I was going to. I wish the Russians will infiltrate like the student loan game. Right, right. I'd love to give an oligarch a hand job instead of paying these back. Yeah, no, I agree with you. If Trump would do something about student loans, you probably would. I got a friend.
Starting point is 00:49:12 He is a chef, but like a chef with an agent. You know what I mean? Is this your buddy that would... Don't say his name. No, I'm not going to say his name, but I'm saying, is he the one that was influential? influencing us on our Vegas stuff? No.
Starting point is 00:49:22 That was a food critic friend of here. Yes. Okay. All right. Go ahead. He is a chef with an agent. His wife and I were co-workers. She's also a good buddy of mine.
Starting point is 00:49:29 And his current job that he's had for a while now is he goes out on a boat of a Russian oligarch for three weeks. Do what? And is the chef for the boat. And the dude just lives on the boat. And then he's three weeks off and another guy does it. Because, you know, it's like a 24-7 kind of paid. You get paid really well? Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:49:47 That sounds like the greatest job I've ever heard of. like he's hanging out with Russian oligarchs. And like, again, that sounds awesome. And he's like, there's like the wife and she has the room, like the big room. And then there's the mistress who's on the boat with the wife and everybody knows about each other. And the mistress has like a big room. And then there's like four girlfriends. And the drama isn't that they exist.
Starting point is 00:50:06 It's like who gets to be what? Right. Who's got the bigger rooms and all that? And then they have like all kinds of rich people coming on their boats. And he said he just makes steak pretty much every night. See, like, no, I'm all about that because like, I know you said like, well, but it's for Russian oligarchs. Dude, you know who I am. Everybody knows who I am.
Starting point is 00:50:23 If you don't think that me and a bunch of Russian oligarchs will be best friends, you've lost your mind. So, they tell me you are called the machine. The show. Yeah, exactly. Burke. Yeah, me, okay, Bert Crisher, huge Russian oligarch fan. Bert, if you're listening, Bert,
Starting point is 00:50:40 and me and Bert, it's been pointed out to me several times by y'all and many people I've met. Me and Byrd are very similar. Both Choos. I guarantee you, if I was the day. dude making steak and eggs for Russian oligarchs and also cracking wise, I would end up being in whatever their parliament is as the jester. Does nobody agree?
Starting point is 00:51:01 What, what, what, something happened? The Celtics won tonight? What the fuck? They were down by 20 in the third quarter. They've been getting crushed the whole series. They're in Cleveland, right? What was the score of that? Drew, was the score?
Starting point is 00:51:13 11 to 108. I can't believe that. I can't either because when we were to club, I didn't think they were going to win again. No, I didn't either, dude. Because, dude, Cleveland, am I wrong in the third quarter, Cleveland was up by like 20 and, like, just slamming at home? And Cleveland, in the first two games has just been rocking and fucking shit. They beat them by 50?
Starting point is 00:51:31 And those first two games were in Boston. Dude, this one's in Cleveland. They beat them by 50. I definitely did not see that shit coming. That's insane in football. In basketball, that's unheard of. That's way less insane than in football. In football, college football, maybe.
Starting point is 00:51:47 Well, no, actually. But I'm just saying like points are just, you know, one and two or whatever. In the play in the fucking playoffs? In the playoffs. In the playoffs. That's what I'm saying. No, I think Corey's right because. In college.
Starting point is 00:51:59 Touchdowns are, right. College football. That's what I'm talking about. College football. Yes, I agree completely. Well, touchdowns are at least seven. You get up three. All right.
Starting point is 00:52:05 Well, we end of the way. So we can be into weeds. It's fine. But since we're talking about sports, I do want to give. And I say this and we'll lose the last two games. But shout out to the prets. Oh, yeah. Nashville Predators are up three games to two on the Anaheim Mighty Ducks right now.
Starting point is 00:52:23 It's a shame rednecks. They're an eight seed. They were, they're fucking, they came in as an eight seed. Sweep the number one see Chicago Blackhawks in the first round and our one win away from going to the Stanley Cup finals. So go Preds. More rednecks ain't into hockey. I feel like it would suit us a lot if our people back home in the South are into it. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:52:43 There's not a lot of black people that would hit for a lot of shitty rednecks. It's a, other than the ice. They don't have teeth. They fight all the time. Yeah. It is weird. Well, that's why I've always said we crush in Canada, which we will, and we'll be in Canada in a couple of weeks, come out and see us. But the culture from hockey to football, it's like, dude, yeah, they like to fight.
Starting point is 00:53:03 They beat the fuck out of each other. They show tities. Their jerseys are too expensive. I've seen titties. Well, like I said, there's not a lot of minorities, which I know would hit for some shitty rednecks. Yeah, that is the opposite of football. The Preds, one of their best players is a black dude. That is for me.
Starting point is 00:53:17 Suban. P.K. Suban? He's badass, man. That sounds like a car. Yeah. He's awesome, though. But is that wrong? Should I know if I said that?
Starting point is 00:53:30 I don't know. It does sound like a car. No. It's not racist to say that name. I'm just trying to understand. I want to know. I'm trying to grow as a human being. Well, yeah, we could tell about how much you eat.
Starting point is 00:53:41 I hate you. What are we talking about? Drew had said earlier, now I've already forgotten it, because it was 10 fucking minutes ago, but fuck the GOP, the congressman, the Republican, like, you know, bureaucrats,
Starting point is 00:53:56 fuck all that. Is there literally any point at which the people are like, okay, this is, this is too much.
Starting point is 00:54:08 It's really hard to admit that you're wrong, especially when, right, I think that's such a huge part of it. You finally got a voice. Right. And it's only four,
Starting point is 00:54:16 five months in or whatever. I think that's a huge part of it, man. It'll take a minute. Some of those people I think might actually eventually come around, but it's going to take a lot longer than it's been right now. I wrote about it in a piece that I did for the Huffington Post. But that part, I know. That part I totally understand. Like, not wanting to admit you're wrong right off the jump.
Starting point is 00:54:37 That's a pride thing. And I can at least understand a certain part of that. Because that's, as a redneck, admitting you're wrong and swallowing your pride is super hard. That's what? Or, well, the end at least was what my last, that's what my last video was about. Yeah, that. Right. I know. I know. You know. You know. Yeah, yeah. I mean, yeah. I get it too.
Starting point is 00:54:58 So, again, I think they're wrong. But there's some of them that the holdoff, like, I just want to keep, I want to go down with the ship. I at least understand the mentality. I don't think they're right. I just, I understand that mentality. No, I completely agree, man. Because, dude, there was a lot of things that I absolutely would have gone to the sea on Obama with, several things. several things, but I mean, he wasn't ever really that wrong, so it was fine. He was wrong. You'd be droning people.
Starting point is 00:55:24 A couple times. No, no, that didn't hit for me. But again, we've talked about this. It's like, okay, with war, I just kind of put it out of my mind, because it just seems like we've always. White privilege. No, well, exactly. But it's like we've always been at war. American privilege. We're very desensitized. Chappelle talked
Starting point is 00:55:40 about that in the age of span. He's like, so much is going on that, like, you can't, he's like, by the time I'm upset about this, another thing happens. How can I keep being upset about that? But, so war, I'm like, all right, we're always at war. Kat Williams, I don't even know no motherfucking insurgents, man.
Starting point is 00:55:58 You kill all of them. Well, that's the thing, though. We stay at war. So with war, I'm just like, that's just kind of a president's thing. Dude, I haven't been pissed off. I haven't said one thing about Trump's bullshit, like bombing people. I mean, bombing don't hit, but I'm like, yeah, presidents be bombing people, whatever. I'm talking.
Starting point is 00:56:15 talking about the complete lack of... I saw, dude, that's such a far cry from the shit that's going on with... That's what I'm saying. Like, that just is always going on. I really wouldn't like to think if something like this had been happening with Obama, I would have been like... I would have seen it. I would have seen it. Okay, look, we need to get to the bottom of this shit.
Starting point is 00:56:33 And that's my thing. And if he really did it, then, you know, get my man smoking Joe Biden in there or whatever. That's my thing. You can go back on his Facebook, my Facebook, your Facebook, your Twitter, YouTube, whatever. I know for a fact. when Trump started to fucking the mother of all bombs, we might have made some cutesy jokes or whatever. But we really didn't have huge like disparaging opinions on that.
Starting point is 00:56:56 Because we're like, yeah, presidents be bombing shit. Well, the only thing that I really said about it was I thought he was doing it as a distraction from the rest of this shit. But you weren't calling him a war criminal for it. No, no, no. Whereas Obama was getting called a war criminal every time he did a goddamn thing for anybody. But to me, I'm like, look, Bush went to war. There was some war with Clinton. some war with Bush,
Starting point is 00:57:17 senior, Reagan, we just, we are constantly bombing people. I hate it, I don't like it any more than anybody else does, but that's what happens.
Starting point is 00:57:24 I'm talking about the incompetence of his other bullshit, his fucking foreign diplomacy, his fucking healthcare bullshit, his fucking views on gay people coming with Mike Pence. That's what the fuck I'm talking about.
Starting point is 00:57:37 War always happens, so I'll just, it's like you always see your nose so you fucking ignore it. You can, your brain, that's what it is to me. It's not,
Starting point is 00:57:45 even just that though. I mean, again, I, I, every time I ever talked to anybody about it, I was critical of Obama when it came to droning people. I was critical Obama when it came, early on in his administration, the DEA was raiding fucking weed dispensaries like a motherfucker. He actually said he didn't do enough for wheat.
Starting point is 00:58:02 He did more of those than fucking Bush did. Yeah. And I would tell people, that's fucked up and it's not okay. Like, I criticized Obama, I criticized Obama, I criticized Obama for a ton of shit. I looked up, I actually looked up a bunch of I said some old stuff come up in my time hot where I was talking shit about, in my opinion, Barack Obama had the best position to do way more for weed than what he did.
Starting point is 00:58:26 And he didn't. And he didn't go backwards. So I was fine with that. But he had so many opportunities to go forward and he never really took him. And I was pretty much like, hey man, what the fuck? But the reason I was what the fuck is because he was my guy and I believed in him. So that's the fucking point. There was also, he was way too easy on the.
Starting point is 00:58:45 fucking banks and shit. I mean, that's the point. I liked him so I held him to a higher standard and they don't fucking do that. Well, yes, I liked him. I still supported him ultimately, you know, and now, especially
Starting point is 00:58:57 relatively speaking, like in comparison, good Lord. I miss him like a motherfucker. It's unbelievable. But, but though, I was openly critical of Barack Obama many times over the course of his presidency
Starting point is 00:59:10 when he did some shit that I didn't like. And they don't, that ain't happening. in right now. Because it's the opposite. They dig in. I agree completely with what you said
Starting point is 00:59:21 about war in general. Like it's bad, but it's always there, et cetera, et cetera. But like, dude, the idea of him
Starting point is 00:59:28 being in charge during a war scares the fuck out of me. Yeah, but that's the only way pens would be in improvement. One thing I will say about that is
Starting point is 00:59:39 according to everything that I've read, yes, he has a ridiculous name, but Mad Dog Mattis is pretty legit as far as that goes. The first time he doesn't do what Trump wants to do, he'll fire him.
Starting point is 00:59:51 Right. No, yeah, you're right. Yeah. Yeah, fuck that. And that's the one way that I would rather have Pence than Trump, sincerely. It's like the international prospects of dying in a mushroom cloud. Right. Yeah, man. Well, I mean, this has been a very uplifting and positive episode
Starting point is 01:00:07 that I feel good about. Well, I just felt like, I felt like it's like the elephant in the room. sincerely no pun intended because it's just so fucking insane we had to talk about it but do you okay gun to your head drew what do you think what do you think is ultimately going to happen do you think that he will get impeached for this yes after the midterms that is my instinct i think that i think that i think that i agree with you
Starting point is 01:00:40 there will be something that gives mccanell and the rest of the turtile club he'll he'll he'll absolutely get impeached he's not going to exit that's what I think I think he'll beat it like my man really Clint? We'll impeach the charges I think if he gets impeached he's going down. I know it was like mostly different people but they impeached a man for getting his dick sucks in the White House
Starting point is 01:01:03 and now a dude is literally giving away secrets in the White House and it's fine well my thing is what I mean is I don't think that should happen there's a lot of people and I know because they've been tweeting at me that don't understand what impeach means. Impeach doesn't mean he got impeached, he's gone.
Starting point is 01:01:20 Impeach means to have charges brought against you. Here's why it's different though than like when Clinton got impeached but then ultimately remained president. Because he's a cheap. Especially right now. If Trump gets impeached, again, especially if we're talking pre midterms. Who's bringing up the charges? If we're talking pre midterms, if Trump has been impeached, he's going the fuck down.
Starting point is 01:01:43 Because the only way he's getting impeached is if the GOP impages him. And if they impeach him, dude, he's done. You're right on that. And if he gets impeached post-mid terms, that will be because the Democrats regained control of Congress. And if they're in charge and they impeach him, he's going the fuck down. I agree with you. I don't see any way he gets impeached and then sticks around.
Starting point is 01:02:10 I agree with you. But also, there was a time in my life where I didn't see. anyway. He'd win the goddamn primary. So I'm still a little, I guess it's shell-shocked in a way, or maybe, I don't know what it is. Dude, if you tell me, you're not wrong. Everything you're saying makes more sense. What I'm saying is just, I'm a scared boy who's just going, yeah, but nothing is real anymore. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 01:02:33 I'm not saying he's going to be done. I'm saying to me, it's either. If it goes to impeachment, it's over. It's either he lasts four years and never gets impeached. at all, or he gets impeached and fucking oustead. I don't think there's a scenario where he gets impeached and then survives that. I got to tell you, four years my ass. If he makes it four, he's making it eight, in my opinion.
Starting point is 01:02:57 You can call me shitty. You can call me dumb all you want, but I also am the one that said he'd get elected in the first goddamn place. I don't know who the fuck we're going to replace him with. But, dude, the Democrats, for the most part, win. Democrats didn't come out to vote for Hillary because they thought there was no way Trump was going to win. it wasn't people talk about how like white working class people uh you know came out for trump and droves and got him in there and like like there's some validity to that but if democrats had got out for Hillary
Starting point is 01:03:28 the way that they did for like Obama or whatever it would not have mattered who are we going to run that we'll get those people out I may eat these words but dude anybody can say anybody I sincerely don't think it'll matter matter. When it comes to Democrats and people on the left in 2020? You're going to have to convince me, man. Just because I've just seen what this happened. They will still vote for him. I'm saying that we will get off our asses this time.
Starting point is 01:03:56 I know. I agree. I'm just saying who the fuck are you going to run. Yeah, I mean, I don't know. Like, that's my thing is like I've just, I've been burned before and I'm getting older. You know, dude, I'm getting a little bit more cynical, I guess, in this game. Like, you just burned me. I'm not convinced.
Starting point is 01:04:13 To me, you're right. Incumbents win more often than not. And I just, who the fuck are you going to run? I want to run somebody. Who the fuck are you going to run? The rock, that's what we're saying. It's now.
Starting point is 01:04:23 The rock. All right, whatever. I mean, I'd vote. I absolutely vote for the rock over Trump. But I don't know what the fuck's going on. Well, guys, this has been a great podcast. It has. I've really enjoyed it.
Starting point is 01:04:33 Drew, how you feel about it? My belly hurts because they hate too many of them red Russian sairs. Yeah, them sires do get you.
