Speaker 1 (00:11):
You're listening to the Buck Sexton Show podcast, make sure
you subscribe to the podcast on the iHeartRadio app or
wherever you get your podcasts. Welcome to the Buck Brief.
In a shock announcement, Joe Biden told everyone just a
few hours ago, I'm speaking to you Thursday evening. Here

(00:32):
he has chosen Donald Trump to be his vice president.
I'm not making it up. That is what Joe Biden
said at his press conference. I wouldn't have picked Vice
President Trump to be vice president, so I think she
was not qualified to be president. He chose Trump, his
vice president is ready to lead day one. Wait, hold

(00:53):
on a second, You're kicking Kamala off the ticket for Trump.
That is the change up that nobody expected. Okay, obviously
Joe was having one of his many out to lunch moments.
But here's the thing. After his NATO press conference, I'm
just gonna tell you he's the nominee. How many times

(01:14):
have I been saying it? How many of these podcasts
have I had to go through chapter and verse of
why it will be Biden? I am certain now certain
that it will be Joe Biden. I've been certain, really
all along, But this is basically what they thought they
would get on the debate night. This is the performance

(01:35):
that they were looking for, and they got it. So
now they're meeting the Biden team, and I don't know
what the Democrats think their next plan would be if
they're trying to push him out. Through all these stories
about members of Congress going to deluge Biden with demands

(01:56):
that he drop out of the race, I don't think
you're gonna see any of those. Many of you be
listening to this on Friday, July twelfth and into the weekend,
so you might know more than me at that point,
but I'm just telling you right now as I sit
here Thursday evening, right after that press conference, Nope, I
don't see these lawmakers coming. Lawmakers make them sound so

(02:18):
fancy and serious, these lawmakers. No, But I really don't
see these individuals at this point throwing themselves into the
mix by saying that they think that Joe Biden should
step down, not after that press conference. And so I
think that what you've seen is an enormous failure of

(02:39):
the Democrat machine to be able to call the shots
in this. I think the New York Times editorial board
really believed that they were more powerful when it came
to who should be president than the president himself, I mean,
or rather who should be the Democrat nominee. That's really
this is all within the Democrats. We get to sit
here and just eat popcorn and hang out while they
do all of this to themselves. And certainly I think

(03:02):
Trump tomorrow is going to be in a great mood,
as he should be, because I think it's locked in
that Joe Biden now is the guy for them, and
it always was likely to be the case. It's always
what I've seen happening. And here's what's amazing about this.
By picking Kamala Harris, Joe Biden has given himself a
reprieve and the ability to keep going. By picking Kamala Harris,

(03:27):
Joe Biden is in a position to say, I'm even
with dementia better than the DEI higher. It's exactly the
way that this is going to play, and the deeper
into this they get, I mean, think about it. With
each passing day, they're losing time to do some kind

(03:47):
of a switch and it's going to be the RNC
next week, so they're not going to be able to
create the feeding frenzy around Biden. If he's got to go,
he's got to go. And so what will that mean?
Means Biden's going to stay in the role because they
can't push them out and no one's going to be

(04:07):
able to convince them otherwise. This is astonishing. It would
have been more astonishing if Joe Biden ended up really
picking Donald Trump to be his VP, but I don't
think Trump would accept. Yes, he just misspoke. I know
it was funny. But oh and there's some other misspeaking
that Biden did earlier in the press conference, another name

(04:31):
he had a problem with. You're going to want to
hear that. But first up, you know, you got to
take the moment here to do something to prepare for
what's going to happen to dollars over the next few years.
As you know, if you had a million dollars in
two thousand and nine, it we let worth less than
seven hundred thousand dollars today. Out of control government spending

(04:52):
is a guarantee. I'm sorry, but it is. It's not
going to stop. They're going to keep debasing the currency.
What can you do as we approach thirty five trillion
dollars in debt right now? What can you do to prepare?
I think gold is an answer for you. Gold has
been a hedge against inflation and has withstood all kinds
of economic fallout for millennia. For over twenty years, the

(05:16):
Birch Gold Group has helped concerned Americans convert an existing
IRA or four oh one k into a tax sheltered
IRA in physical gold. Best best part is it doesn't
cost you a penny out of pocket. With an A
plus rating from the Better Business Bureau, tens of thousands
of happy customers, you can trust Birch Gold too. To

mistake was made by Biden today? Well, Zelenski is at
this NATO summit, and Biden actually introduced Zelenski as I'm

(06:02):
not kidding Putin he goes here, here we go, folks.
Is you know we got we got Vladimir Putin In
Putin Zelenski. I mean this would be like if you're
introducing Churchill and instead you were to say Hitler. Okay, now,
I know I'm not saying that that Putin's Hitler, but

(06:24):
you get what I mean, Like, this is his sworn enemy.
You know. Does it be like if you were introducing
net and Yahoo and you were like, and now I
present to you the head of Hamas you know, that
is what he did. And the Democrats, because they are shameless, reckless,
have no ethics, and have no honor, are all going

(06:46):
to be forced to just go along with all this
and act like it's no big deal and he should
be the nominee because they have no other good options.
That's really what I think, more than anything else, is
driving this at this point. If they had a good
secondary option, they would they would go for it, but
they don't, and they're delaying, and along of they delay,

(07:07):
the harder it's going to get for them. But I
either that's a also just the fact that Biden focused
so much on NATO, and he was really trying to
position himself like, oh, look at all the accomplishments I've
had for NATO. That's all that I really need in
order to show you that I'm a good president. I
think most Americans, and I really mean that, I know

(07:28):
people say most Americans agree with me, But what percentage
of Americans think that Biden's machinations with NATO are really
important to them? I would assume a tiny, tiny fragment
of the America, maybe twenty percent, thirty percent or something,
thinks that it really matters what Biden has done with NATO.

(07:51):
And the other part of this that he doesn't address,
of course, and he's talking about all this stuff today,
is that Russia is winning this war. I mean, it's
winning slowly, but they still have a huge piece of
Ukraine under their control, and they're grinding down the Ukrainian
mil terry. We just sent over more. I think we've

(08:12):
just sent over f sixteens to Ukraine, and we're sending
over all this stuff. It's costing US hundreds of billions
of dollars, and at the end of the day, they're
going to have to just have some kind of a
negotiated settlement on eastern Ukraine. Otherwise, what I mean, are
we going to go to war with Russia. I think
that the people that make all this noise about the

(08:33):
necessity of NATO stopping Russian aggression need to take a
moment to realize that Russia invaded Ukraine and is not
actually looking to go to war with NATO. That's a
different thing. They always say, Oh, one will happen and
then the other will happen, like there's Domino's flung. That's

(08:55):
not true. Russia's having enough trouble fighting in Ukraine thanks
to US and all the massive amounts of supplies and
training and everything else that we're giving them. But I
think people are tired of just the war machine. I
think they're tired of we need to be going here
or going there, and sending our young men to go
die in these foreign countries to fight for other people

(09:17):
that sometimes don't even want us there and don't even
want the rights that we're supposedly fighting for. So that's
what I see. Oh, since we mentioned the fake VP
thing where Biden said he picked Trump. More on the
Trump VP here in just a second. But you know
a good friend of mine, somebody I've done business with
for many, many years, Porter Stansbury, is somebody who's built

(09:39):
a massively successful financial research firm, and he did something
really interesting. He cut his salary and he said this
very publicly, to a dollar a year. Why would he
do that? Well, he's found a much better way to
save and get paid. You see, there's essentially a new
form of money in America. It's making some people very rich.
Most of the richest people in America use it, and
you can too. It's not gold or bitcoin. Porter says.

(10:01):
What's interesting is that while every American is legally entitled
to use this secret currency, you know much about it.
The Porter's hoping to change that. He says, the way
our government is stroying the US dollar, it's critical to
understand how America's new money works. He believes it's the
most critical way to protect and grow well from the
years to come. So I strongly recommend you go check
out Porter's latest detailed presentation online at secret Currency twenty

(10:24):
twenty four dot com. I doubt you'll see this idea
or opportunity to discussed anywhere else, So take a few
minutes check out Porter's fascinating insights. Go to secret Currency
twenty twenty four dot com. That's secret Currency twenty twenty
four dot com. So yeah, I think it's uh. I
think it's gonna be interesting to see who Trump's VP is.

(10:45):
He's going to announce. I think Don Junior is speaking
at the RNC I'll be at the RNC all next week,
so I guess I'll be doing podcast next week. I
don't know, probably hopefully, but I'll be at the RNC
for the whole week and I'll be talking everybody there
and doing all that good stuff. And the thing is
they're going to have Don Junior speaking and then they're

(11:06):
gonna announce who the VP is. And I gotta think
that I've been saying to jd Vance all along. I
think it's gonna be jd Vance. I really do. So
you can mark this one down as another Buck prediction.
I think jd Vance will be the guy and for
people to say, oh, well, will he really help in
Pennsylvania and the Ross Belt. He is a native son

(11:29):
of the Ross Belt, if you will, if you've read
Hillbilly Elergy and Never Hearing You talked to This Anymore,
that was his big best selling memoir about his life
growing up in America in a broken home, in a
working class white household in I guess it was. I
think it was Ohio and Kentucky. He kind of bounced
back and forth. I don't remember. I read the book

(11:49):
like a decade ago, so yeah, I don't think it's
really about that as much, although that's important as it
is about the next generation of Republican leadership, and I
think jd Vance fits the bill for that very well,
and so hoping I'm right on that prediction, and we'll
certainly see at the RNC. But just to be clear,

(12:10):
the Buckster has told you all along, and many of
you are aware of this buck Island place that I've
been discussing on radio, that it will be Biden, and
that JDVLL Biden will be the nominee and jd Vance
will be EVP. And I will also not throw in
there that Donald Trump will win the general election. So
my predictions are on the record. We will see if
I nail all of these, and I think the chances

(12:32):
are very high. You know, I'm an unabashed gun guy.
Big believe in the Second Amendment, big believe in the
right to bear arms. And that's why, you know, when
I came right out of college, I got fantastic training,
you know, rudimentary fundamentals training and firearms from the CIA
because I wasn't some door kicker or anything, but they
did want me to be able to handle myself if

(12:52):
I needed to overseas to help out those guys if
things got things got ugly in the red zone. Right,
So I got some good fundamental so the good groundwork
of firearms, and I've been trying to get better and
better as a civilian for the rest of my life. Right,
I've been trying to work on my skills. So I
spent a fair mine time with firearms. Bear Creek Arsenal
is my favorite gun manufacturer. First of all, they're patriots,

(13:15):
they love this country. They stand with conservative media. A
lot of gun companies are whimps, cowards, won't won't. Oh no,
we don't believe in Like the left hates you, the
Democrats hate you all. We can't do any ads on
conservative anything because we're worried. I'm like, really, you're selling
ar fifteens you're worried about Oh you know it's crazy, right.

(13:36):
Not Barckcreek Arsenal. They actually stand with the people who
care about the Second Amendment. They're actually living their principles
as American patriots, and they're making the best guns for
the money you're gonna get anywhere. Barckreek Arsenal offers a
wide range of calibers. Just trust me. Go check out
the website. Go to Barcreek Arsenal dot com. Use the

Arsenal dot com see the guns that they have, see

got four now at home, okay, and i'd get more,
but I'm just running out of room in the closet
and my wife's gonna gonna lose it on me if
I can't find a place to store. Well, it's gonna

(14:18):
have to be another gun safe. I guess that's a
whole other conversation. Barcreekarsenal dot com slash buck use promo
