Speaker 1 (00:03):
It's that time, time, time, time, Luck and load. The
Michael Verie Show is on the air. Whetherident.

Speaker 2 (00:14):
Biden has been days locked in intense preparation, surrounded by
his closest advisors at Camp David, and our sources are
telling us tonight that full mock debates are underway at
the podium under the lights. He's even watching tape to
know exactly what he's going to see when he steps
up to that lecture. This team shot a video during
a walk through the scene in studio and as that reported,
while covering him at the White House. When Biden prepares,

(00:36):
he does so incredibly intensively.

Speaker 3 (00:38):
Oh, we have one thousand billionaires in America, got even
billionaires in America, and what's happening. They're in a situation
where they in fact paid eight point two percent in Texas.
If they just paid twenty four twenty five percent either
one of those numbers, we may raised five hundred million
dollars billion dollars. I should say in a ten year
period we've been able to write wipe about his debt.
We'd be able to help make sure that all all

(01:00):
those things we need to do, childcare, eldercare making sure
that we continue to support strength in our healthcare system,
making sure that we're able to make every single solitary
person eligible for what I've been able to do with
the UH, with the COVID, I was gonna be with
dealing with everything we have to do with Look, if

(01:23):
we finally beat medicare, what's happening I've changed in the
way that now you're in a situation where the forty
fewer people coming across the border illegally.

Speaker 4 (01:33):
It's betting when he left office, and.

Speaker 3 (01:35):
I'm going to continue to move until we get the
total band, the total initiative relative to what we're going
to do with more border patrol and more aristomous.

Speaker 4 (01:46):
I don't know what he said at the end of
this sense. I think he knows what he said.

Speaker 5 (01:50):
He lived.

Speaker 3 (01:50):
I mean, I got my handicapped, which one I was
was president, down to a six. And but by the
way I told you before, I'm happy to play carry
on bag.

Speaker 4 (02:02):
I think you can do it.

Speaker 6 (02:04):
That's the biggest love that he's a sixth handicap of all.

Speaker 4 (02:07):
I was an eight handicap. Yeah, I've seen you swing.

Speaker 7 (02:13):
I know you Swingsdent Trump, So just how worried where
Biden aids before the former president's disastrous debate last summer.
According to Ron klain Is, chief of staff, his concerns
could not be overstated. At his first meeting with Biden
for debate prep, quote Clayan was startled. He'd never seen

(02:33):
Biden so exhausted and so out of it. Biden was
unaware of what was happening in his own campaign. Halfway
through the session, the President excused himself and went off
to sit by the pool. Part about the pool. He
went off. This is in the middle of debate prep,
went off to the pool, and he took a nap.

Speaker 1 (02:49):
Ron DeSantis, the governor of Florida, has created an alligator Alcatraz.
My inner redneck, my inner child, my cartoon upbringing. Could
not love this more. But before we get to that,
President Trump having maybe the best week or two weeks

(03:12):
President's had in a very very long time Scott Jennings
at CNN making that case.

Speaker 7 (03:19):
Donald Trump just going crazy in terms of executive orders.
He can issue an executive order today and will likely
he said so today, and he knows that the lower
courts cannot carte blanche stop him, which hugely increases the
power of the executives.

Speaker 8 (03:36):
Yeah, Look, this is a great week for him, not
just because of this ruling, but earlier in the week,
the Supreme Court handed him the ruling on being able
to deport illegal immigrants to third party countries essentially. So
he's on a little bit of a winning streak in the.

Speaker 1 (03:49):
Court right now.

Speaker 8 (03:50):
And you know what a lot of Republicans are saying
is nope, we're not tired of winning yet.

Speaker 1 (03:53):
This happened. The stock markets at a record high.

Speaker 8 (03:56):
He brokeer the ceasefire in the twelve day war, he
piece broke out between Rwanda and the Congo. I mean,
gas prices are at a four year low for the summer.
I mean, win after win after win, And this particular
one is the most important because these individual judges had
been I think unfairly stopping the president from governing.

Speaker 1 (04:16):
He won the election they did. We don't have six
hunder presidents.

Speaker 8 (04:18):
We have one president, and now he's going to be
able to actually govern.

Speaker 1 (04:21):
And so you could make an argument that this week
or the last.

Speaker 8 (04:25):
Two weeks the best week or two weeks of his
entire presidency.

Speaker 1 (04:30):
Liberal Justice Elena Kagan in twenty twenty two made exactly
the same point. Liberal District court judges should not be
able to stop the president. This is what she said
when Biden was president.

Speaker 9 (04:46):
Just can't be right that one district judge can stop
the nationwide policy in its tracks and leave it stopped
for the years that it takes to go through normal process.

Speaker 1 (04:59):
Governor Ron DeSantis doing great things with Alligator Alcatraz in Florida.
It has the inner redneck in me very very excited.
Some of the alligators used to surround the immigrant detention
center are being transported from the Louisiana swamps. A Netflix

(05:25):
documentary is in the early stages of filming, and they
sent us a clip for the upcoming show. This growing
up on the Louisiana border, growing up in Alligator Alley,
growing up where alligators were. There's a famous case out
of Orange a few years ago. This guy is good

(05:46):
and drunk and in Orange, Texas, he jumps in the
water where there's a gator and the gator takes him down.
I mean, it had been I think two hundred years
since that had happened in Texas, but this I will watch.
Much kudos Ron DeSantis for this.

Speaker 10 (06:04):
As Crawlfish season has come to an end, Boys of
the Louisiana swamps aimed their crossbows in the direction of gators.

Speaker 1 (06:11):
A mission directed straight from the top.

Speaker 10 (06:13):
You know, when I get that, called he on my
flip phone from President Trump. Will find all these gators
and we transport them over to.

Speaker 4 (06:18):
Florida and ann a gator alcatrash.

Speaker 10 (06:21):
So I got pretty excited. I called my man, man Boodro,
and were going to work. Get it right, He called me,
and I said, hey man, I.

Speaker 1 (06:27):
Come down and we'll pay the plumb.

Speaker 10 (06:28):
Hey man, we go to them. Get it.

Speaker 1 (06:31):
Translation.

Speaker 10 (06:32):
Boudreau is happier than Paul Paul in front of.

Speaker 1 (06:34):
A plate of grits. Gator after gator.

Speaker 10 (06:36):
The boys round them up and prepare these beasts for
Florida vacation. You know, with you a lot of gators
here over the years, but with you to beg this time.
We hit them with that tranquilizer we reserved for Boodro's cousin.
When he gets Armory, he gets the job done, putting
these gays to sleep for a bit, right, Boudreau, damn man,
we get them and it's get them at gate again.

Speaker 4 (06:55):
Man, I said, pure pew, and I get a go call.

Speaker 10 (06:58):
Yeah, as excited as these boys are to get these
gators to Florida's Alcatras, they're even.

Speaker 1 (07:05):
More excited that they have a chance to meet the press. Yeah,
we couldn't believe it.

Speaker 10 (07:09):
You know that President said, hey, come on down with
these gators, and I.

Speaker 1 (07:12):
Love to shake your hand.

Speaker 10 (07:13):
I said, mister President, of that deal, great honor for.

Speaker 1 (07:15):
Me and Boudro.

Speaker 10 (07:16):
If we could barely keep him in his own pants,
we had to go buy him a new suit, am Man,
President Trump. I mean I love that man.

Speaker 1 (07:22):
Would you do what he did? Great president?

Speaker 4 (07:24):
Women, thing he do, I can kick minutes.

Speaker 10 (07:26):
So there you have simple men of the swamp turned
into truth. American traders nick stop, Glorida Acadran.

Speaker 11 (07:35):
Oh yeah, listening to the Michael Barry Show podcast, is sexy?

Speaker 1 (07:41):
Be sexy. If Barack Obama had been as successful as
as Donald Trump has been, they would have named a
state for him. Donald Trump has had an incredible week
despite the media. Yea. And it's been so incredible that

(08:04):
at points they've even had to acknowledge it. That's painful
for these people. President Trump announced late last week that
the United States has signed a new trade deal with China.

Speaker 6 (08:20):
A few months ago, the press was saying, do you
really have anybody of any injury as well? We just
signed with China yesterday, right, just signed with China.

Speaker 4 (08:30):
We have everybody. We're not going to make deals with everybody.

Speaker 6 (08:33):
Some were just going to send them a letter say
thank you very much. You're going to pay twenty five
thirty five, forty five percent.

Speaker 4 (08:38):
That's the easy way to do it. My people don't
want to do it that way.

Speaker 6 (08:41):
They want to do some of it, but they want
to make more deals than.

Speaker 4 (08:44):
I would do. But we're having some great deals.

Speaker 6 (08:46):
We have one coming up maybe with India, very big one.

Speaker 12 (08:49):
Well, we're going to open up India.

Speaker 6 (08:51):
In the China deal, We're starting to open up China.

Speaker 1 (08:56):
You know, there has been an abiding byef amongst America's
working class for many years that the rest of the
world has the ear of our government and that America's workers,
america small businesses don't. And there is finally a sense that,

(09:21):
you know, why is the rest of the world getting
over on our country. They don't give us anything. There
is a great frustration that Trump kept into and that
is the reason for the depth of love, adoration, almost
worship of him. Is finally somebody in my country cares

(09:46):
about me, And that was such a deep well of
emotion that it's that's where the love comes from. It
really is. President Trump was asked what he called the
best question he's ever been asked.

Speaker 11 (10:05):
Mister President, a leading global economists just at a one
to eighty and says, your tariff plan you may have
as smart.

Speaker 1 (10:11):
To everybody with it. So what is your message? I
love this, I love this question.

Speaker 4 (10:17):
This is the favorite.

Speaker 1 (10:17):
This is the best question I've.

Speaker 6 (10:18):
Ever been asked, because I've been going through abuse for
years on this. But mister because as you know, we're
taking in hundreds of billions of dollars, no inflation whatsoever.

Speaker 11 (10:30):
But mister President, what is your message to critics you
think you were tariff plans will cause a recession.

Speaker 13 (10:35):
I think they should go back to business school.

Speaker 4 (10:37):
It's so obvious. It's so obvious.

Speaker 6 (10:39):
I mean, we're taking in billions and billions of dollars
from China and a lot of other countries.

Speaker 1 (10:46):
President Tump also took an opportunity to call out the
anti Semitism in the Democrat Party, most notably from Chuck Schumer.

Speaker 6 (10:57):
Guys like Schumer our great Palace TONI and Senator this guy. No,
he's changed. He used to like Jewish people. Now he's
totally against Jewish people. It's the most incredible transformation I.

Speaker 4 (11:09):
Think I've ever seen.

Speaker 1 (11:12):
You know, there is a transformation occurring in New York.
You can see it. If the New York Mayor's election
occurs on the pace it has been, that city will
change dramatically, and a lot of Jewish Democrats will realize

(11:34):
that they were responsible for their own downfall. It was
not white Christians who were their enemies. It was not Republicans,
much as they wanted Republicans to be their enemies. It
was the Democrat Party that they worked so hard to
keep in power that eventually led to their downfall. And

(11:56):
you will see a lot of those folks moves. So
I'll move to New Jersey, many will move to Florida.
Many already have. And it didn't have to be the case.
President Trump sat down with Maria Bartaromo a Fox News
and he said he thinks his administration has turned the
country around in the six months they've been in office.

Speaker 13 (12:18):
As president, you were just coming off of one of
the most consequential weeks anybody has ever seen.

Speaker 1 (12:23):
From striking Iran.

Speaker 13 (12:24):
To going to NATO to announcing two deals and then
the Supreme Court victory. Have you been able to digest
what has occurred in the last seven days. Oh? Really,
it was pretty wild period of time.

Speaker 6 (12:37):
And I really think in six months we've taken the
country and turned it around.

Speaker 12 (12:41):
I was told by the King of Saudi Arabia, by.

Speaker 6 (12:44):
The leader of Qatar and the leader.

Speaker 12 (12:46):
Of Yuoye when we went over there we worked back
five point one three million dollars investment into the United States.
They said, you know, you're presiding now over the hottest
country in the world, and a year ago we thought
your country was dead. Hate could never come back. It
was so incompetently run by a very band president. And

(13:08):
I said, you're right, this country is hot. And that
was a couple of months ago. You know, now we're
talking about what we've done recently. So the country is
really going. And the numbers are great. I watch you
in the mornings and you're given those numbers and they're
really good. No inflation. We have a bad FED chairman,
but other than that, we have fetal grade. It doesn't
even matter. The numbers are so good. It doesn't matter

(13:29):
that he keeps the rates are officially high. But it's
it's been an amazing it's been an amazing period of time.

Speaker 1 (13:38):
It's a news junkies overdose. I mean, it's just been
a few days since Operation Midnight Hammer that bombed Iran's
nuclear facilities. I mean that that was a win for America.
We hadn't had a win, least not in that way
in a while. Maria Bartiomo asked President Trump if he

(14:00):
was planning on doing anything for the B two pilots
who flew that mission that bombed Iran's nuclear facilities. And
this is what he said.

Speaker 13 (14:09):
Those pilots are so courageous, and you know you want
to honor them.

Speaker 4 (14:12):
Are you going to do something for them or.

Speaker 13 (14:14):
Yes, they're going to come to the White House. But
what you said is right. These people flew thirty six
hours in a small space a big plane, but a
small space was mostly occupied by bombs, and they flew
so brilliantly, and they hit a target the size of
the circle. They a little target, they say, half the

(14:35):
size of the refrigerated door, from fifty thousand feet up
in the air, going at a rapid speacause they're going
very fast. When you know they're over a pretty rough
territory and they hit it every single time, and then
they knocked out two other sides.

Speaker 4 (14:50):
Aside from that.

Speaker 1 (14:54):
Think about that for a moment. Think about that level
of accuracy from that distance at that speed, the technology
that bomb had and the ability to deploy that. It's

(15:19):
truly amazing. I mean, I'm not a man of science
or technology, but it really has staggered the world. And
it's not lost on anyone that this is a way
of showing some folks out there who might be tempted

(15:40):
to saber rattle, this is what the Americans can do.
It's the Michael Barry Shows, twenty sixteen. Republican Primary. LISS
was a grand revelation for a lot of people in
our country because you had Jeb with an exclamation at

(16:04):
the end of it. You needed the exclamation or you
might forget to be excited about Jeb because he was
so sleepy. But it was a moment where you realized
there were people under the Republican banner who hate you.

(16:26):
And it wasn't until the Trump election that those people
were exposed. People like Adam Kinsinger, people like Liz Cheney,
and a lot of folks assumed, well, if you run
as a Republican, we share the same values. John Cornyn

(16:47):
sadly Mitch McConnell, the guy who was leading the Senate Republicans,
and now look what he's done. John corn who's being
driven out of Texas. These guys hated Trump because they

(17:07):
hate you. They didn't want the peasants to be involved
in government. So you got Adam kin Singer and all
he can do now he is a professional agitator. He
is a professional critic of Trump. In a Navarro. You
look at these guys, what's the gout, mourning Joe with

(17:29):
his mistress. You look at these guys who used to
be considered Republicans and then they were exposed, and now
they just spend their whole time hating Trump. And in
order to hate Trump properly, they have to support Biden
and the Clintons and the Obamas. And it makes you wonder,
what did you really think all those years you were

(17:52):
part of the controlled opposition. So here's Adam Kin Singer,
who had to retire from Congress because he wasn't going
to be re elected. He told CNN that the effort
to take out Iran's capability had failed, and he said
that Trump had declared victory and claimed a ceasefire between

(18:15):
Israel and Iran, but that Trump failed. Here's what he said.

Speaker 14 (18:20):
He declared victory before we had intelligence assessments. And the
worst part is he forced a cease fire between the
parties so that the b twos couldn't go back for
round two, for instance, that they needed to. Nobody guaranteed
that it would just take one round of strikes. The
political decision that maybe you have to go back for
a second strike was on Donald Trump, and he failed

(18:42):
at that.

Speaker 1 (18:44):
Poor guy's such a bad weather. CNN's Michael Smerconish, not
exactly a Republican, certainly not a conservative, did a six
minute segment on the phenomenal week that Donald Trump's administration
had just ad and he started by listing President Trump's
foreign policy wins, and Adam Kinsinger looks like a fool here.

Speaker 15 (19:09):
The mission was carried out with stealth and with precision.
There were no American casualties, and while Congress is divided
after receiving briefings on the extent of the damage, I'm
sure that we've derailed Iran's nuclear program at least temporarily.

Speaker 4 (19:23):
And there's some.

Speaker 15 (19:24):
Valuable deterrent effect for America's adversaries who witnessed last week's exercise.
Then last Tuesday, President Trump left the White House and
route to Europe. At the time, there was a question
as to whether Israel.

Speaker 1 (19:36):
And Iran would honor a cease fire.

Speaker 15 (19:38):
That caused the President to offer the most unfiltered, non
controversial direct words that I can recall anybody ever saying
about the Middle East.

Speaker 6 (19:47):
They basically have two countries that have been fighting so
long and so hard that they don't know what the
they're doing.

Speaker 4 (19:55):
Do you understand that?

Speaker 15 (19:56):
Cut to the Hague, where he arrived for NATO meetings
and was able to angle and agreement from our allies
to more than double their defense spending target from two
percent of gross domestic product to five percent by twenty
thirty five. Also, while at NATO, in a press availability,
he did something rare for Trump and I found rewarding.

Speaker 1 (20:14):
He showed empathy.

Speaker 15 (20:16):
He came in an exchange with the Ukrainian journalist who
said that her husband was a soldier. She asked whether
the US would supply her country with Patriot missiles?

Speaker 1 (20:26):
Are you living yourself now? In your my husband is there?

Speaker 5 (20:30):
Wow?

Speaker 13 (20:30):
And I can see you very you know, it's amazing and.

Speaker 1 (20:33):
Me were the kids. I mean also actually because he
wanted me to be.

Speaker 13 (20:38):
Is your husband a soldier, No, he's he's there now.

Speaker 6 (20:42):
They do want to have the anti missile missiles, okay,
as they call them the Patriots, and we're going to
see if we can make some available. I wish you
a lot of luck. I mean, I can see it's
very upsetting to you, So say hello to your husband.

Speaker 1 (20:58):
Okay.

Speaker 15 (20:59):
Also in that presser, he was more reflective and respectful
than usual of our allies.

Speaker 6 (21:07):
They want to protect their country and they need the
United States, and without the United States, it's.

Speaker 4 (21:12):
Not going to be the same.

Speaker 1 (21:13):
And I left here differently.

Speaker 6 (21:15):
I left here saying that these people really love their countries.
It's not a ripoff, and we're here to help them
protect their country.

Speaker 1 (21:26):
CNN's Jake Tapper, no Donald Trump fan could not ignore
what he said. Empirically may be the best week of
Trump's presidency so far, President.

Speaker 16 (21:38):
Flexing his political muscle there after what may be empirically
the best week of his presidency so far, a sweeping
Supreme Court victory, expanding his powers. The Dow at a
record high cees fires between Israel and Iran and in Rwanda.
And now President Trump is focusing on his allies on
Capitol Hill where he hopes for another win.

Speaker 1 (22:00):
Democrats and their media couldn't help. And to his credit,
this this, this is CNN's Van Jones, who, unlike the
white liberal Democrats, Van Jones can appreciate the toughness of
Donald Trump. He was on with Chris Solisso and he

(22:23):
talks about the fact that you've got to give Donald
Trump credit. This is what they can't do. They can't
ever bring themselves to give Donald Trump credit. And he
talks about the fact that Donald Trump is smarter than us.
This is a flashback CNN's Van Jones on with Chris Solissa.

Speaker 17 (22:45):
How the hell did Donald Trump figure out the mainstream
media is the fringe and the fringe is now the mainstream.
How the hell did Donald Trump figure out? I mean,
Joe Rogan is obvious, right, Like we knew the guy
had a big audience. It's not like we were like
stun but like, how the hell was he the seventy
eight year old guy who doesn't even have a computer
and still like write handwritten notes. How did he become

(23:08):
the guy who cracked the code. On to your point,
running a cultural I don't even want to say campaign
running it is a movement, movement, heading a culture versus.

Speaker 5 (23:20):
Every one of your people knows elon, Elon listen, Yeah,
so everybody keeps I mean, the problem is you have
a framework in your mind that how can Donald Trump?
How can Donald Trump? How can Donald Trump? Guys, can
we cut it out? Donald Trump is not an idiot
Donald Trump. Let me just be very clear. Donald Trump

(23:40):
is smarter than me, you and all critics. You know
how I know because he has the White House, the Senate,
the House totally agree for the popular vote. He has
a massive media ecosystem bigger than the mainstream, built around
him and for him, and a religiously a religious fervor

(24:02):
in a political movement around him. And he is best buddy,
is the richest person in the history of the world,
and the most relevant Kennedy is with him.

Speaker 1 (24:10):
This dude is a phenomenon. He is the most.

Speaker 5 (24:13):
Powerful human on earth and in our lifetime. And we're
still saying, well, how was this car?

Speaker 17 (24:19):
We look like idiots order He's totally right.

Speaker 1 (24:30):
Michael Berry's show.

Speaker 10 (24:31):
If he doesn't say it damn who will?

Speaker 1 (24:37):
The true presidency is a fascinating thing doing what we do.
There is a video going around. I read it from
John LeFave, but there are a number of people who've
posted it. I just encourage you to go look at it.

(24:58):
It is Tim Wall, the governor of Minnesota, walking in
the Pride month parade in his state, and he's got
his jazz hands out. Hai y'all high.

Speaker 4 (25:18):
It's kind of.

Speaker 1 (25:18):
His coming out ceremony. You can tell he is so excited.
He is just really thrilled at this moment. He's walking
in the gay Pride parade. There's his wife looking like
his mother. She looks anyway. That's not the subject of
the segment, but please just go and watch it. That

(25:41):
guy was well. He wasn't within a whisker of being
vice president, but he did at least run. We are
not a breaking news show, as I say quite often,
and that's to manage people's expectations. I think that breaking news,
especially in the era of Trump, is often wrong, and
since we are not a primary news source, I don't

(26:01):
want to repeat bad news and push it further down
the line and put whatever credibility I've managed to muster
behind it because the corrections page is over on page seventeen,
as opposed to the story that's top of the fold,
page one. In the old newspaper industry, So what ends

(26:22):
up happening is we live so much in the here
and now that sometimes we miss the bigger picture and
we try to be more of a magazine than a
daily newspaper. People sometimes get frustrated that we're not talking
about what's happening at the second it's happening, And the
reason is because we're not there and we don't want
to report and comment and analyze things using bad information

(26:47):
that was actually a syop. There's a lot of that done.
There are a lot of stories that are leaked and
then promoted so they'll be reported, and it turns out
that's not true, but there's no time to go back
and pick up the story and fix it. It also

(27:08):
means that we or the media tends to fail to
really give perspective on what has happened. I give you
a good example. Friday was the first anniversary of the
debate that ended the Biden campaign. Now you'll remember that

(27:28):
debate was very early in the political process. Remember they
scrapped the whole primary. They just announced Biden would be
the nominee, and that was it because he couldn't have
done a debate. He was in terrible shape. They tried
to act like, oh, he just fell apart yesterday. No,

(27:50):
that wasn't true. They had him sundowning and him tucked away.
It really was like a bad sci fi movie. Was
the first anniversary of the debate that ended that campaign,
and before the debate, the woman that Donald Trump, I
think accurately calls that nasty person, Caitlyn Collins, reported how

(28:15):
intensely Joe Biden was prepping. Oh he was really they
were getting him ready. He was good, even though he
was the president. He was taking time to be ready
to show. Oh, lion, Donald Trump, he was going to
show him. Contrast that report with Abby Phillips ten months later,

(28:41):
when she quoted reports that Joe wasn't quite as intense
as her network had reported. So what changed? Why did
they tell us? Well, he's in there, old Joe Biden,
he's getting acturate, he's he wants to be president again.
He's sharp as attack. Remember morning, Joe said, He's never
been better. And then ten months later CNN.

Speaker 2 (29:04):
Reported this President Biden has spent days locked in intense preparation,
surrounded by his closest advisors at Camp David, and our
sources are telling us tonight that full mock debates are
underway at.

Speaker 1 (29:16):
The podium under the lights.

Speaker 2 (29:18):
He's even watching tape to know exactly what she's going
to see when he steps up to that lecture. His
team shot a video during a walkthrough of the CNN studio,
and as I reported while covering him at the White House,
when Biden prepares, he does so incredibly intensively.

Speaker 7 (29:33):
So just how worried where Biden aids before the former
president's disastrous debate last summer. According to Ron Klain, his
chief of staff, his concerns could not be overstated.

Speaker 1 (29:43):
At his first.

Speaker 7 (29:43):
Meeting with Biden for debate prep, quote Clayan was startled.
He'd never seen Biden so exhausted and so out of it.
Biden was unaware of what was happening in his own campaign.
Halfway through the session, the President excused himself and went
off to sit by the pool.

Speaker 1 (29:58):
Part about the pool.

Speaker 7 (29:59):
He went off in the middle of debate prep, went
off to the pool, and he took a nap.

Speaker 1 (30:06):
So that was my mistake. That was the report at
the time. Both of those reports were what benefited CNN
at the moment. They did what was in their interest
at the moment. Collins reported the intense prep by Joe

(30:26):
Biden when the media was still portraying him as being
really sharp and Joe Scarborough was telling he's never been better.
And then with CNN's Jake Tapper's book about to hit
the bookstore, the same network, these people have no shame,
the same network who told us that boy Biden's never

(30:49):
been better. Then a few months later, Jake Tapper, with
that network, writes a book about the fact that he
was completely out of it, brain dead. This was the
moment most people think of when they think back on
that debate.

Speaker 4 (31:08):
What's happened.

Speaker 3 (31:09):
I've changed it in the way that now you're in
a situation where there are forty percent fewer people coming
across the border illegally.

Speaker 4 (31:16):
It's better than when he left office.

Speaker 3 (31:18):
And I'm going to continue to move until we get
the total ban on the total initiative relative to what
we're going to do with more border patrol and more
asignum officers.

Speaker 6 (31:30):
President Trump, I really don't know what he said at
the end of this sentence, I don't think he knows
what he said he did.

Speaker 1 (31:38):
Only Trump could have done what he just did. That
was a moment so awful that there were probably a
lot of Republicans who felt bad about it. There were
probably a lot of Republicans who, after he had that

(31:58):
moment Jap chops, after he did that, would have just
pretended it didn't happen, because we're all in the same
fraternity together, and we can't possibly criticize one of our own.

(32:20):
Joe Biden's our buddy. Trump absolutely eviscerrated him. Can you
just play that last little bit from Trump there, ramont
or just that last twenty six seconds?

Speaker 3 (32:33):
Go ahead, what's happened. I've changed it in the way
that now you're in a situation where there are forty
percent fewer people coming across the border illegally.

Speaker 4 (32:42):
That's better than when he left office.

Speaker 3 (32:44):
And I'm going to continue to move until we get
the total band on, the total initiative relative to what
we're going to do with more border control and more
sign of President Trump.

Speaker 4 (32:57):
I really don't know what he said at the end
of this sentence. I think he knows what he said either.

Speaker 10 (33:05):
Yeah,
