Speaker 1 (00:00):
Third hour of the play a Bug show on this
due page twenty fifth. Oh my gosh, almost July, almost
Dependence Day weekend, almost the absolute peak of the election cycle.
We have a huge debate coming up on Thursday, huge
and what have you decided where to watch?
Speaker 2 (00:21):
Yet? I feel like this is almost super Bowl. Like
I was talking with my wife like about our Thursday plans.
I'm like, I've got to be set by you know,
thirty minutes before the debate with myself. Have you kind
of thought through where you're going to be, where your
location is. I bet a lot of our listeners out
there are kind of working through debate. Watching it feels
again I don't know. I people are going to have
(00:41):
debate watching parties, but it feels like kind of an event.
Speaker 1 (00:44):
Does that make sense to you? Yes? But this for
me is I would only want to watch it at
home with my wife, Carrie and Ginger and maintain radio
silence during the debate. For the most part, I can't
go to a bait watch party on this one because
I want to be very focused, you know what I mean?
Speaker 2 (01:04):
And that's how I feel a lot of times about
the super Bowl. And all these people are yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:08):
They chirping, chirp. I don't want to hear chirping while
I'm watching the debate. I want to be chirping on
X and making fun of Biden. But I don't want
people in my ear like, oh did you hear what
he says?
Speaker 2 (01:19):
So you you have got everything planned. You're gonna be
on the couch in the Sexton residence, alongside of your
lovely the wife Carrie, just of them loaded, ready to roll,
phone in the hand.
Speaker 1 (01:30):
And trying to convince Ginger to stop barking at the
screen every time that communist Biden speaks. I don't know
what it is. Ginger doesn't like communists. We didn't even
train her. I think she just loves freedom and understands
that communists destroy everything. So uh, yes, that's my plan.
If it were a different you know, in primaries, I
have friends over in primaries or whatever that I'm a
little more like rock them, sock them.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
But in this debate, the primary debates with you, Bara
and I were over we watched your house.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
Yeah, but that that to me is more like all right,
let's here. You know. Also, because there's so many people
on the stage and it's a little more of a
free for all, but I want to be really focused
in on this one. Are you doing the same thing?
Are you actually gonna go somewhere and watch this?
Speaker 2 (02:12):
You know, it's such a I had this conversation with
Laura because first of all, my house is a freaking zoo,
and I gotta be careful what words I use there
in the summer, my boys are running in and out,
there's other kids.
Speaker 1 (02:24):
I don't even know whose kids they are.
Speaker 2 (02:26):
There's whiffle ball games, there's basketball games, there's screaming, there's yelling,
there's wrestling. I mean, I honestly I told Lara. I
was like, I just I want to have some sanity
around me so I can just sit down and watch
this debate. And the house is such chaos. I'm already
trying to think through like where do I want to be?
(02:46):
And then other people are saying, because I was texting
with some buddies, They're like, man, we want to have
a party. We're gonna get We're gonna get a bunch
of beers. We're gonna sit around and have some Margarita's.
Like I think that this is going to be a
summer social event, And you know, we've never really seen
anything like this, because a lot of you, I bet,
are starting your July fourth holiday early because you've got
(03:10):
the Thursday Friday holiday next week. And I know, for instance,
in my family, on Friday, we're headed down to Florida,
God's Country, to thirty A to the Florida Panhandle, and
I'll be down there doing the show Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday,
and then we got July fourth, watching fireworks, celebrating America,
all those things. But I know a lot of you
out there are going to be on the road, moving friends, family,
(03:32):
So it's just kind of a festive time of year,
and we've never had a debate sort of dropped in.
And then I also know a lot of people got
Little League games, a lot of people got kid obligations.
My sons are in camps all the time, and so
it's just kind of a convoluted time to be suddenly
having a debate, if that makes sense.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
It's weird. Well we all know why. And this will
be I mean, there are a few firsts in all
of this. This will be the earliest debate in presentential
debate history. It will be the first time a sitting
president and a former president have debated on TV, So
I think that's right. I mean I've seen that that, right,
(04:12):
who would be the sitting and former to debate on television?
I don't ever happen, never happened before, right, Okay, just
making sure that that I hate to go.
Speaker 2 (04:19):
Back to theeenth nineteenth century for a rematch between a
former president and a current president.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
I mean, someone sent me this thing. I don't know
if anyone's seen this about like bald eagles and how
to like to they they take off their own beak
when they get older and then they re I'm like, no, guys,
this is not a this is like a chain email
from the nineties that's now a meme like, that's not
eagles don't remove their own beaks to become like the
you know, a different kind of eagles. Anyway, I hate
facts that are false. So that's all I'm trying to say.
(04:47):
And yeah, we've got the first time that will ever
have happened. It's obviously crucial for Biden, obviously crucial for Trump.
And and here's a part of this that I think is interesting.
The I don't think the media really has much to
say in the way of coaching for Biden. My sense
from watching obviously they're all attacking trumpet to democracy, and
(05:09):
you know all the hysteria and dogs and cats living together.
We get all that, right, What do they say on
behalf of Biden? What if you're Biden's debate coach, you
tell him, in terms of policy, wins to focus on
forty two billion dollars on rural broadband that hasn't given
(05:29):
a single human being in America broadband, the worst inflation
since the nineteen since since nineteen eighty. Here's a I
mean when I say fun fact, it's the opposite of fun.
But here's a fact. For everybody to afford the same
house at this stage of the Biden presidency that you
would have been able to afford before Biden came into office,
(05:53):
you have to make eighty percent more income. You can
afford less than half the house that you could win
and Biden became prep. I think that's a big deal. Also,
the way they calculate inflation clay and the stuff they've
done in CPI, and it's all meant to it's smoking mirrors,
it's meant to obscure, it's not meant to really show.
(06:15):
So you know, this is where I think you're going
to See, it's a lot of what's not said about
the debate that tells you where this is all really going.
Because there are no Biden accomplishments. What are you going
to say, how great the war in Ukraine is going
that happened on Biden's watch, That didn't happen on Trump's watch.
How peace in the Middle East is coming along so
well on Biden's watch? How inflation got to keep those rates? Look,
(06:40):
I thought they were going to be dropping rates this year.
They can't. And on the one hand, I'm saying, oh, okay, well,
they're not able to just sort of manipulate the system
that easily. They're not dropping rates because they're still worried
this inflation is out of control, and inflation, if they
can't control it, is far scarier than anything else in
the economy right now, or far more damaging anything else
in the economy. So they don't have a strong hand
(07:03):
to play, even apart from all the stuff about Biden's
too old and he looks snile, and he sounds senile,
and he's got dementia, do you know what I mean? Yes,
there's no way it's they're going in trying to coach
a team that shouldn't be able to even show up
and compete.
Speaker 2 (07:19):
That's why to me, Trump's I know he doesn't prep
in a traditional way, but the only two arguments that
Biden has is threats to democracy. Trump's temperament January sixth
all rolled into one, and then the second one is abortion.
(07:40):
And so if I were asked by Trump, hey, what
advice would you give me, I would eliminate with a
knockout punch both of those immediately. On the threats to democracy,
I think Biden is actually hugely susceptible to the counter punch,
which is, you're calling me a threat to democracy based
on January sixth. Your Justice Department is trying to put
(08:04):
me in prison for the rest of my life because
I'm running against you. If I weren't running, they never
would have charged me. They waited until the election year
to make this happen. To me, Trump can deliver a
devastating CounterPunch there. Second one is on abortion. I actually
think Trump's answer is really good. It is, Hey, I
may disagree with what California is doing, I may disagree
(08:25):
with what New York's doing, but the people of those
states now that Roe v. Wade is overturned have the
right to make their own choices, and this is now
the most democratic process possible. Every state has to decide
what the law is on abortion. That's their right. That's
what we did is we ended Roe v. Wade, which
(08:45):
is one of the worst decided cases I think fairly
since Dred Scott, Right. I mean, I think you can
make that argument from a legal process. And then what
does Biden have left to me? The CounterPunch there if
he's disciplined, you know, that's what Biden's gonna try to
hit him on. What does he have left? Like, what
(09:06):
would you try to argue otherwise? I don't even know
what Biden has. And again this is where Trump crime
the border inflation. I would hammer inflation all the time.
Trump loves Big Max, right, I would have the average
price of a Big Mac memorized if I were Donald Trump,
and I would say, Hey, I love McDonald's French fries.
Speaker 1 (09:29):
Big Max. I love him.
Speaker 2 (09:31):
He eats him all the time. He does what the
cost is for your average person. I talk about Chick
fil A. I'm still fired up about it. Buck, I
can't get my kids Chick fil A for under fifty dollars.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
That used to be a nice sit down meal.
Speaker 2 (09:44):
Fifty dollars. I bought four lemonades at the College World Series.
Go University of Tennessee. Sorry, Aggie's fans, do you know
what four lemonades at the College World not alcohol four
lemonades for kids cost me at the College World Series
thirty eight dollars.
Speaker 1 (10:05):
You might as well be buying limitation shots for Jesse
Kelly at those prices. That's what I'm That's what I'm saying.
Thirty eight dollars. The Aggie fan was sitting next to me.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
I said, dude, I used to be able to get
a good steak for thirty eight dollars. I got three
kids with me, and I get eliminade for not alcoholic again.
Thirty eight dollars for four limonades and a freaking College
World Series game. This is all this stuff is out
as could. The cost of everything is out of control.
Speaker 1 (10:29):
Well, also, you have to I wish that it was.
I know they can't bring props, so they can't bring charts.
But the one thing you're going to see this week,
I just we'll call it out as it happens in
this week. It's the next forty eight hours Uh, they're
going to try to release stories that can be the headline,
(10:50):
can be used to the advantage of Bide. You know,
one of these you're seeing is crime. Crime is dropping
across the nation. You started to see this, right, Yeah,
because they want to talk about that because a lot
of anxiety over what we're seeing happening and all these
horrible including recently with a bunch of illegals who have
come into the country and should have been never allowed in,
should have been deported doing horrible, heinous, violent crime, sexual crimes.
(11:14):
But what the Democrat media is going to do is say, well,
crime is down, and they'll pick some you know, arbitrary
like crime is down substantial to the last twelve or eighteen months,
and they'll give you that number. But what they won't
give you is Okay, but how's crime looking since Biden
took office? Yeah, because you had in twenty twenty one
(11:36):
one of the worst years for homicides in this nation's
history or recent history, I should say, going back to
the nineties, and one of the worst increases in homicide
in history. Is actually the statistic I was looking for.
And so if you have a you know, a thirty
percent increase in violent crime nationwide, and then a five
(11:56):
or a ten percent decrease that's still really bad. Like
this is what people need to understand. If you look
at where Biden came into office and where inflation all
of a sudden starts to get out of control, it
doesn't look like correlation. It looks like causation. It looks like,
you know, one followed the other, as night follows day,
inflation follows Biden because he comes in and what does
(12:20):
he do opens up the spigots of useless, non productive
government spending to the tune of a couple trillion dollars
and wanted to do five trillion more and acts like
when you have more money chasing fewer goods, that doesn't
cause what we have right now, which is the increase
in prices of everything you were buying, and particularly the
(12:41):
pain that everyone suffers from liquidity and access to capital,
which is why mortgages right now are so expensive. And
this is creating all kinds of market dysfunctions, or maybe
it's not really a dysfunction, but you know, market crunches
clay because people don't want to leave. They're three percent
mortgage house yep. And we have a housing shortage nationwide.
(13:05):
We have a lot of illegals coming in who are
renting or living in houses that aren't really counted when
we're looking at what is going on with the housing supply,
and we're not going to catch up any time soon.
So this isn't like this problem is about to just
get a whole lot better. But everything that Biden has done,
I think you can pull out the most clear numbers
(13:26):
to show what a failure it is. But I do
think Trump is probably just gonna make fun of him
a lot. I think that's more likely. I think he's
probably gonna be like, look at this guy. Can't stand straight,
can't doesn't know where he is, doesn't know what time
it is.
Speaker 2 (13:39):
I think on some level, and I know this is
hard for Trump, let Biden talk as much as he can, oh,
because I think he stumbles. Well, first of all, they're
cutting mics off. But the more Biden talks, the more
of a disaster I think he creates. And it's counterintuitive.
I would go back, I don't know if they've gone
(14:00):
back and watch the tape with him. Trump was the
worst version of himself in the first debate in twenty twenty.
He was I'm sorry. I wanted him to win. I
wanted him to knock out Biden. He was so genned
up and ready to go that he was bull in
a china shop and it was just a disaster. Smoked
him by the second debate. I don't even think people
(14:20):
are gonna remember what happens in the second debate. I
think this one is going to set the tone.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
And if he just lets.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
Biden kind of stumble all over himself, I think he
can win this thing. But you know what, you're gonna get,
abortion and threats to democracy. CounterPunch often more effective than
the punch. I want to tell you. Speaking of punch
and CounterPunch, they got Biden training for a week, a
full week in the woods at Camp David. They have
done mockups of the podiums. They are training Biden so
(14:53):
he can stand for ninety minutes, so he can talk
for thirty six minutes or whatever is full speaking time
as going to end up being because he doesn't have
any energy, because he doesn't have any vim vigor, vitality,
because he doesn't have chalk. You need some testosterone in
your life. If you are out there right now and
it's Tuesday, and you're already draggon. You're like, my goodness,
(15:18):
I can't believe I got to make it all the
way to Friday. Maybe some of you are gonna need
a little bit of a jolt to stay up late
enough to watch Joe Biden. Maybe you're a little bit
feeling like Biden yourself. You know, my mom joked the
other day to my dad when he wasn't moving fast enough.
Come on, Biden, get with it. If you ever have
(15:39):
that joke used against you, Buck, did you see harsh
but true? It's a good line. That's a good line.
You know what somebody said about my golf game that
I'm still not recovered from.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
Buck.
Speaker 2 (15:48):
I don't even know if you saw this, because we
talked about it on Friday. They said, you put like
Biden walks. Oh you know what I'm talking about, Just
a devastating blow, just me out uppercut Mike Tyson style
back in the late eighties, early nineties. If you ever
could have you putt like Biden ascribed to you, if

talk about witnesses and jury after the hush money conviction.
Not hush money, but that's the way it's described by
(17:33):
breaking nine to one one uh and uh. But that
gives him a little bit more flexibility to talk about
that case.
Speaker 1 (17:40):
Just FYI in time for the debate. Excuse me, excuse me,
he's gonna be talking about it. It's gonna be fun.
All of us, me included, earn income in the form
of dollars, right, It's what pays our bills. But there's
at least one CEO who announces change recently in terms
of compensation. His salary is a dollar. Now. You might
(18:00):
be saying, why is he doing this? Well, because he
has one of the most successful financial research firms in
our nation and he wants to make a point. Porter
Stansbury is making a dramatic term when it comes to
compensation for himself because he says he's found a much
better way to save and get paid and this can
work for you too. It's a new form of money
in America. It's making some people very rich. Porter's forthcoming
(18:25):
plan doesn't involve gold or bitcoin. It's a secret currency
that you know much about. Check out Porter's latest detailed
compensation plan online at secret Currency twenty twenty four dot com.

(18:47):
All right, so we've been talking to you about primary
day in New York and I know, well a lot
of you thank you for listening to the New York
Pricet state area. But for a lot of you the
rest of the country, you're like, Okay, well that's just
some democrats or argue with each other, and there's some
some moments getting attention on social media and online from
(19:08):
all of this. Jamal Bowman, who I have seen video
of bench pressing four hundred and five pounds. I think
he goes three reps and they're pretty clean reps. Wow,
this is praise.
Speaker 2 (19:22):
What percentage of men do you think can bingch press
four hundred pounds more? Who can dunk a basketball? I
would bet than bench press four hundred way easier dunk
of basket, Way easier dunk of basketball. I think than
to bench press four hundred. I mean because because the
height fact, Like, think of how many people. I mean,
if you're over six to two, dunking of basketball shouldn't
be hard for you, honestly. I mean when you're at
a young enough age, I mean, when you're in your
(19:44):
forties and fifties, you don't have that same kind of
vertical leap.
Speaker 1 (19:48):
Yeah, how old is Bowman? Is he fifty? Yet he's
in his fifties. So he's in his fifties and he's
benched four. He's got four plates on both sides. Mike
Cernovich shared the shared the video today and I was
looking at like, wow, you know, you know, anyway, there's
a little prep. Let's just say a little bit, a
little maybe when he loses his primary tonight, he can
(20:09):
go into professional weightlifting as a job. And he doesn't well,
he doesn't look like he's taking any special stuff. That's
the other part of this too. He doesn't. He doesn't
look to me like he's like he's taking a stack
if those are in the weight weightlifting community what I'm
talking about. He looks like he looks natural, looks like
anyway bench press. I'm just being I'm just being nice
(20:32):
because I give credit where it's due. I think he's
about to lose his congressional seat, or at least there's
a very real chance he will lose his congressional seat.
He's very fired up and a little profane, and this
is what he sounds like. Place twenty seven.
Speaker 3 (21:00):
Omen Listen, we are not gonna stand silent while US
(21:24):
tax dollars kills babies.
Speaker 1 (21:28):
This is this is fascinating, Like take a moment here.
He's got his congressional district is the Bronx. The Bronx
is there's some very lovely things about the Bronx, very
lovely areas of the Bronx. A lot of poverty and
a lot of crime in the Bronx too, right here
in America, going on right here day after day. He
(21:48):
is a congressman representing the Bronx, and he is one
of four hundred and thirty five votes and is focused
on Gaza in his speech. Now, this is particularly interesting
because on the other side of this equation you have
his his competitor, who is getting millions millions of dollars
(22:15):
and is much more friendly, has raised millions of dollars,
spend millions dollars and it is much more friendly toward
the state of Israel than Jamal Bowman is. So what
I see happening here, this could be viewed, I think
as a George Latimer. This could be viewed as a
as a bit of a test here. It's fascinating if
(22:37):
he loses Clay think about this congressman from the Bronx
may lose his seat because he's obsessed with the plight
of Gaza, not of Bronx residents. Is cheering and screaming
about what's going on in Kaza's five thousand miles away.
And because of that focus, and because of what seems
(22:57):
to be maybe a bit of anti Semitism, I don't know,
probably with some probably what some people are saying, Uh,
you have Latimer able to make a real go of
it here. I'm trying to find how much money?
Speaker 2 (23:10):
Well, let me also add this while you look up
the money, because Latimer has raised.
Speaker 1 (23:13):
Three zero point five million dollars for a congressional race.
Speaker 2 (23:19):
That is massive. And you'll know this and our WR
listeners will as well. But this district is actually kind
of a fascinating district. It's the sixteenth congressional district in
New York and again the Democrat. It's a Democrat seat.
It's going to be decided tonight. But it also goes
buck into Scarsdale, which is a very wealthy, mostly white area.
(23:42):
It also goes up into in Westchester County for those
of you who know this area. So it is a
he's doing that rally and screaming f bombs in the Bronx.
I immediately think this doesn't play very well at all
in Scarsdale. Now, this is this is different than voting
for as you're pointing out, this is why I don't
see necessarily liberal Jews in America. We already had the
(24:08):
conservative Jews. We already you know, we get conservative Jews
are already on the team Republican, and you know they've
already with us, right, so they're they're already voting Trump,
and they have voter Trump in the past. Liberal Jews
I don't see in large numbers switching over. You think
maybe they will, we'll see what happens in the election,
you know, meaning ten large numbers is like a ten
to fifteen percent swing that would be considered you know,
(24:29):
five percent or less is just kind of whatever.
Speaker 1 (24:31):
That's another election year. But what you have. Here is
a chance for a chance for Democrat voters who are
let's you know, Democrat voters who are Jewish in this district,
Scarsdale in Westchester, for example, large Jewish populations. Some of
these areas have a large Jewish popular yeap to be
able to say, well, I'm definitely not voting for the
(24:54):
guy who is pro Hamas and making buddy buddies with
all the anti Semites out there, and if you can
still vote for a Democrat and have your voice heard
in that. With that, what I'm saying is I could
definitely see some Democrats moving away from what I think
is rightly called the AOC wing. And by the way,
AOC here here she is. She was at the rally.
(25:16):
In case you're wondering, trying to help Jamal Bowman not
Latimer play it. She's horrible. I'll stop. I don't I know.
Speaker 2 (25:43):
Actually when you played that audio, you saw it for
you watching on video, cring my ears.
Speaker 1 (25:49):
He actually physically cringed. And I played that and I
didn't want to. You know what, I'm here for you.
I'm not making you suffer through more of that than
you absolutely have to. So we had producer mind turn
it down right away, because it is. It is brutal
for your ear. Drums, Okay, she's shrinking, she's screaming. What
I find fascinating is take this borough back. It's the Bronx.
(26:12):
This should be like Stalin dancing around Moscow in nineteen
forty seven or something and being like, we have to
take this place back from the Communists, Like it's the Bronx.
It is as democrat as Democrat gets over there. I
mean the Bronx Brooklyn. So who is she taking the
borough back from? That's it. I just think that's it interesting, like, yeah,
(26:32):
we're gonna finally be in charge of the place that
we've been in charge of for the last I mean,
when was the last time the Bronx was a majority Republican.
It would I think, honestly World War two era. You
have to go back like nineteen four and I don't
even know if it was Republican then I'm just saying
you'd have to go back basically one hundred years. You know,
people forget like Calvin Coolidge, just a Republican from Massachusetts.
(26:54):
That used to be a thing. There used to be
Republicans who could win office, who were real Republicans, not
a Mitt Romney Massachusetts Republican.
Speaker 2 (27:02):
I am looking he won, Jamal Bowman did Buck to
your point, taking it back, in the twenty twenty election,
he got eighty four percent of the vote. The conservative
I'm not even sure he was an official. He just
says conservative, It doesn't say Republican. Got fifteen percent of
the vote. So to your point on like take it back,
we're talking about in eighty five, fifteen, and in twenty twenty,
(27:25):
Trump won twenty five.
Speaker 1 (27:26):
Percent of the vote in this district, so it was
a seventy five a D plus fifty district and Latimer
right now, Buck ninety percent likely to win tonight according
to the gambling markets. Bowman's going down. I mean, it
would be a huge upset now if he won. But
don't you.
Speaker 2 (27:45):
Agree with me when we played that screaming shrieking of
AOC and also a Bowman, do you think that plays
well in Scarsdale? Do you think people in white plains
are like, that's definitely who I want repping me. It's
very strange behavior by them. What you have is very
apparently there is a a political race divide within the
(28:05):
Democrat Party where there has been a lot of pandering
by black and Hispanic members of Congress to the Palestinian issue, because,
as we've discussed, they view it as you know, solidarity
of of non white people with non white people.
Speaker 1 (28:22):
That is as simple as it is for them. And
a lot of lifelong Democrat Jewish voters have got to
be looking at this and saying, wait a second, like,
you're with you're with the Palestinians after what Hamas just did,
and you're with the campus protests which aren't really protests
and a lot of cases they're just harassment operations of
(28:43):
Jewish students. You stand with them on that. I mean,
it doesn't play in my view so badly in Scarsdale
that the liberal liberal Jewish voters woul vote for Trump,
but they'll vote for Latimer over Jamal Bowman. That's for
darn Shore.
Speaker 2 (28:56):
Yeah, and a good example of this, there's a generational conflict.
Hillary Clinton came out opposed to Bowman, which is I mean,
you can criticize Hillary for many things, as we have
done regularly on this show. To her credit, Hillary has
is right on Israel. I mean, she is right on
Israel's ability to defend itself. And Bowman has been so
(29:21):
anti Israel that even Democrats, who I don't think usually
would weigh in on a congressional Democrat primary. Hillary Clinton
came out in favor of Latimer and she lift for
those of you out there like saying, well, why would
she be weighing in. She lives close to maybe even
in this district. You would know the geography better than me.
But her she lives in Westchester, so she's very qui
(29:43):
claw Chapa, if Chappaquaw might be in this area. I
was just looking up the demo forty percent white in
this district, twenty percent Latino, twenty percent black. So obviously
as you move north into the richer suburbs have become
a very white district. But Bowman's going after that twenty
(30:03):
percent of black vote and honestly, turn out in a
lot of primaries, as we've talked about, in many cases
not very high, but he is expected to get the
heave ho here.
Speaker 1 (30:14):
And as you made the joke if he were going
to pull a fire alarm, that would be a good
time to pull a fire alarm. Yeah, Well, his what
two things is to well, now I guess three because
of the impressive the impressive bench presscause the little jealous
I'm definitely I'm nowhere near four plates on each side territory,
I'll admit. But he's most famous for pulling the fire
(30:35):
alarm and being like I was confused about it. Neveryone's
like you're on video you weren't confused about it, and
then being an anti semi basically, or siding with Hamas
against the Jewish people, which, as we've said, people in
the Scarsdale area, people in Riverdale not pleased with that,
and I think understandably so. But it's really about the
(30:56):
AOC Bernie Sanders wing of the Democrat Party. Is this
a bell weather for whether they will be a drag
on Democrat fortunes going forward, which would could be very
big in this in this election. It's different though, as
I've said, it's different in a primary than in a general. Right,
what someone's willing, someone's willing to change their mind about
(31:18):
a primary candidate or to shift their positioning on that.
That's not the same thing as switching over and voting
for Trump. But it could be take some of your
calls to close us out here in a second. But
you know, if you had a million dollars fifteen years ago.
You know how much you'll be worth today, thanks Uncle Sam.
Less than seven hundred thousand dollars. That's a thirty percent
(31:38):
loss to out of government control, or rather out of control.
It's definitely the government's control. Out of control government spending.
It takes a toll on your hard earned dollars. That's
why central banks and savvy investors are buying gold right now.
For thousands of years, gold has withstood war, famine, economic
down terms, all kinds of government estro fees. It is

Today seek out with the guys on the Sunday Hang
with Clay Buck podcast. A new episode of Every Sunday.
Speaker 2 (33:03):
Find it on the iHeart Am or wherever you get
your podcasts. Finishing up the Tuesday edition of the show, Buck,
I mentioned New York sixteen, which is what we just
talked about. George Latimer against Jamal Bowman. The numbers are
even crazier than I thought. Eighty two thousand dollars bet
in polymarket, Latimer ninety seven percent chance to win this
(33:27):
race and eliminate Jamal Bowman and probably end Bowman's political career.
So to your point on what will the fallout be,
this should be an interesting story that we can talk
about tomorrow. But yeah, look, there's always upsets, anything crazy
can happen. But Latimer is as big of a favorite
(33:48):
to win this primary, almost as AOC is to win
in herb district. Just worth thinking about, right there. Remember
AOC kind of came out of nowhere to get elected.
What was it like six years ago, something like that,
winning a big upset over a guy who had repped
her district for a long time. Latimer expected to wipe
the floor with Jamal Bowman. And if that happens, our
(34:12):
buddy Jamal Bowman may have trouble getting out of bed tomorrow,
and I helpe he try some crocket coffee. Maybe he'll
learn that America is a good place. And if he
wants to talk about killing babies, there's a lot of
babies being killed in the United States that he's totally
fine with. Maybe focus on that instead of worrying about
what's going on in Gaza.
Speaker 1 (34:29):
I just I think it's so interesting that there's this
whole section. Would it's not a fringe, It's not just
a little it's not a wing, a whole contingent of
the Democrat Party. Maybe it's twenty thirty percent of the
Democrat Party that at this point the same way. Remember
when they were obsessed with Ukraine a couple of years ago,
they were obsessed with Ukraine. Yeah, I remember thinking myself,
(34:52):
there are so many problems right here in America. You're
flying this Ukraine flag and all this stuff. Ukraine is
losing the war against Russia right now now, But you
don't hear anyone talking about this, right I can get
any mentioned. They just sort of stopped caring as the
war went on, and and you know, we continued to
get writing bigger and bigger checks and sending more more munitions.
(35:14):
That they care more about Gaza than anything going on here.
And as I mentioned, they care more about Gaza than
they do about what's going on in Darfur for sure,
where there are militias going around raping and murdering people
by the tens of thousands. And you know it just
why Gaza so much, isn't it kind of fascinating, like
of all the things to if you live in an
(35:34):
area where people are being shot, where there's you know,
tons of drug abuse and homelessness, which a lot of
parts of the Bronx unfortunately fall into that category, you're
so worried about Gaza.
Speaker 2 (35:48):
It's a great point. And I think that's why the
relevance of the Trump campaign to just say, hey, America first,
it's really resonating, I think with black, white, Asian and
Hispanic voters, and in particular there's still a lot of
women out there that are emotionally connected to their opinions
of Trump as opposed to his actual policies. But I
(36:09):
was reading today in New York Times, as I often do,
because I want to know what they're talking about behind
enemy lines, I will say, Buck, there are a lot
of Democrats terrified of what's going to happen Secretly in
the debate. They might claim publicly, oh, Biden's sharp as attack.
You should see him behind closed doors. You don't go
away for a week and hide your president if you're
(36:31):
convinced that he's going to be incredible in that debate.
There is a lot of nervousness. I cannot wait to
see what's going to happen there. We appreciate all of
you hanging out with us. Thanks again for three years
of fun.
Speaker 1 (36:43):
More to come.
Third hour of the play a Bug show on this
due page twenty fifth. Oh my gosh, almost July, almost
Dependence Day weekend, almost the absolute peak of the election cycle.
We have a huge debate coming up on Thursday, huge
and what have you decided where to watch?
Speaker 2 (00:21):
Yet? I feel like this is almost super Bowl. Like
I was talking with my wife like about our Thursday plans.
I'm like, I've got to be set by you know,
thirty minutes before the debate with myself. Have you kind
of thought through where you're going to be, where your
location is. I bet a lot of our listeners out
there are kind of working through debate. Watching it feels
again I don't know. I people are going to have
(00:41):
debate watching parties, but it feels like kind of an event.
Speaker 1 (00:44):
Does that make sense to you? Yes? But this for
me is I would only want to watch it at
home with my wife, Carrie and Ginger and maintain radio
silence during the debate. For the most part, I can't
go to a bait watch party on this one because
I want to be very focused, you know what I mean?
Speaker 2 (01:04):
And that's how I feel a lot of times about
the super Bowl. And all these people are yeah.
Speaker 1 (01:08):
They chirping, chirp. I don't want to hear chirping while
I'm watching the debate. I want to be chirping on
X and making fun of Biden. But I don't want
people in my ear like, oh did you hear what
he says?
Speaker 2 (01:19):
So you you have got everything planned. You're gonna be
on the couch in the Sexton residence, alongside of your
lovely the wife Carrie, just of them loaded, ready to roll,
phone in the hand.
Speaker 1 (01:30):
And trying to convince Ginger to stop barking at the
screen every time that communist Biden speaks. I don't know
what it is. Ginger doesn't like communists. We didn't even
train her. I think she just loves freedom and understands
that communists destroy everything. So uh, yes, that's my plan.
If it were a different you know, in primaries, I
have friends over in primaries or whatever that I'm a
little more like rock them, sock them.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
But in this debate, the primary debates with you, Bara
and I were over we watched your house.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
Yeah, but that that to me is more like all right,
let's here. You know. Also, because there's so many people
on the stage and it's a little more of a
free for all, but I want to be really focused
in on this one. Are you doing the same thing?
Are you actually gonna go somewhere and watch this?
Speaker 2 (02:12):
You know, it's such a I had this conversation with
Laura because first of all, my house is a freaking zoo,
and I gotta be careful what words I use there
in the summer, my boys are running in and out,
there's other kids.
Speaker 1 (02:24):
I don't even know whose kids they are.
Speaker 2 (02:26):
There's whiffle ball games, there's basketball games, there's screaming, there's yelling,
there's wrestling. I mean, I honestly I told Lara. I
was like, I just I want to have some sanity
around me so I can just sit down and watch
this debate. And the house is such chaos. I'm already
trying to think through like where do I want to be?
(02:46):
And then other people are saying, because I was texting
with some buddies, They're like, man, we want to have
a party. We're gonna get We're gonna get a bunch
of beers. We're gonna sit around and have some Margarita's.
Like I think that this is going to be a
summer social event, And you know, we've never really seen
anything like this, because a lot of you, I bet,
are starting your July fourth holiday early because you've got
(03:10):
the Thursday Friday holiday next week. And I know, for instance,
in my family, on Friday, we're headed down to Florida,
God's Country, to thirty A to the Florida Panhandle, and
I'll be down there doing the show Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday,
and then we got July fourth, watching fireworks, celebrating America,
all those things. But I know a lot of you
out there are going to be on the road, moving friends, family,
(03:32):
So it's just kind of a festive time of year,
and we've never had a debate sort of dropped in.
And then I also know a lot of people got
Little League games, a lot of people got kid obligations.
My sons are in camps all the time, and so
it's just kind of a convoluted time to be suddenly
having a debate, if that makes sense.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
It's weird. Well we all know why. And this will
be I mean, there are a few firsts in all
of this. This will be the earliest debate in presentential
debate history. It will be the first time a sitting
president and a former president have debated on TV, So
I think that's right. I mean I've seen that that, right,
(04:12):
who would be the sitting and former to debate on television?
I don't ever happen, never happened before, right, Okay, just
making sure that that I hate to go.
Speaker 2 (04:19):
Back to theeenth nineteenth century for a rematch between a
former president and a current president.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
I mean, someone sent me this thing. I don't know
if anyone's seen this about like bald eagles and how
to like to they they take off their own beak
when they get older and then they re I'm like, no, guys,
this is not a this is like a chain email
from the nineties that's now a meme like, that's not
eagles don't remove their own beaks to become like the
you know, a different kind of eagles. Anyway, I hate
facts that are false. So that's all I'm trying to say.
(04:47):
And yeah, we've got the first time that will ever
have happened. It's obviously crucial for Biden, obviously crucial for Trump.
And and here's a part of this that I think is interesting.
The I don't think the media really has much to
say in the way of coaching for Biden. My sense
from watching obviously they're all attacking trumpet to democracy, and
(05:09):
you know all the hysteria and dogs and cats living together.
We get all that, right, What do they say on
behalf of Biden? What if you're Biden's debate coach, you
tell him, in terms of policy, wins to focus on
forty two billion dollars on rural broadband that hasn't given
(05:29):
a single human being in America broadband, the worst inflation
since the nineteen since since nineteen eighty. Here's a I
mean when I say fun fact, it's the opposite of fun.
But here's a fact. For everybody to afford the same
house at this stage of the Biden presidency that you
would have been able to afford before Biden came into office,
(05:53):
you have to make eighty percent more income. You can
afford less than half the house that you could win
and Biden became prep. I think that's a big deal. Also,
the way they calculate inflation clay and the stuff they've
done in CPI, and it's all meant to it's smoking mirrors,
it's meant to obscure, it's not meant to really show.
(06:15):
So you know, this is where I think you're going
to See, it's a lot of what's not said about
the debate that tells you where this is all really going.
Because there are no Biden accomplishments. What are you going
to say, how great the war in Ukraine is going
that happened on Biden's watch, That didn't happen on Trump's watch.
How peace in the Middle East is coming along so
well on Biden's watch? How inflation got to keep those rates? Look,
(06:40):
I thought they were going to be dropping rates this year.
They can't. And on the one hand, I'm saying, oh, okay, well,
they're not able to just sort of manipulate the system
that easily. They're not dropping rates because they're still worried
this inflation is out of control, and inflation, if they
can't control it, is far scarier than anything else in
the economy right now, or far more damaging anything else
in the economy. So they don't have a strong hand
(07:03):
to play, even apart from all the stuff about Biden's
too old and he looks snile, and he sounds senile,
and he's got dementia, do you know what I mean? Yes,
there's no way it's they're going in trying to coach
a team that shouldn't be able to even show up
and compete.
Speaker 2 (07:19):
That's why to me, Trump's I know he doesn't prep
in a traditional way, but the only two arguments that
Biden has is threats to democracy. Trump's temperament January sixth
all rolled into one, and then the second one is abortion.
(07:40):
And so if I were asked by Trump, hey, what
advice would you give me, I would eliminate with a
knockout punch both of those immediately. On the threats to democracy,
I think Biden is actually hugely susceptible to the counter punch,
which is, you're calling me a threat to democracy based
on January sixth. Your Justice Department is trying to put
(08:04):
me in prison for the rest of my life because
I'm running against you. If I weren't running, they never
would have charged me. They waited until the election year
to make this happen. To me, Trump can deliver a
devastating CounterPunch there. Second one is on abortion. I actually
think Trump's answer is really good. It is, Hey, I
may disagree with what California is doing, I may disagree
(08:25):
with what New York's doing, but the people of those
states now that Roe v. Wade is overturned have the
right to make their own choices, and this is now
the most democratic process possible. Every state has to decide
what the law is on abortion. That's their right. That's
what we did is we ended Roe v. Wade, which
(08:45):
is one of the worst decided cases I think fairly
since Dred Scott, Right. I mean, I think you can
make that argument from a legal process. And then what
does Biden have left to me? The CounterPunch there if
he's disciplined, you know, that's what Biden's gonna try to
hit him on. What does he have left? Like, what
(09:06):
would you try to argue otherwise? I don't even know
what Biden has. And again this is where Trump crime
the border inflation. I would hammer inflation all the time.
Trump loves Big Max, right, I would have the average
price of a Big Mac memorized if I were Donald Trump,
and I would say, Hey, I love McDonald's French fries.
Speaker 1 (09:29):
Big Max. I love him.
Speaker 2 (09:31):
He eats him all the time. He does what the
cost is for your average person. I talk about Chick
fil A. I'm still fired up about it. Buck, I
can't get my kids Chick fil A for under fifty dollars.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
That used to be a nice sit down meal.
Speaker 2 (09:44):
Fifty dollars. I bought four lemonades at the College World Series.
Go University of Tennessee. Sorry, Aggie's fans, do you know
what four lemonades at the College World not alcohol four
lemonades for kids cost me at the College World Series
thirty eight dollars.
Speaker 1 (10:05):
You might as well be buying limitation shots for Jesse
Kelly at those prices. That's what I'm That's what I'm saying.
Thirty eight dollars. The Aggie fan was sitting next to me.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
I said, dude, I used to be able to get
a good steak for thirty eight dollars. I got three
kids with me, and I get eliminade for not alcoholic again.
Thirty eight dollars for four limonades and a freaking College
World Series game. This is all this stuff is out
as could. The cost of everything is out of control.
Speaker 1 (10:29):
Well, also, you have to I wish that it was.
I know they can't bring props, so they can't bring charts.
But the one thing you're going to see this week,
I just we'll call it out as it happens in
this week. It's the next forty eight hours Uh, they're
going to try to release stories that can be the headline,
(10:50):
can be used to the advantage of Bide. You know,
one of these you're seeing is crime. Crime is dropping
across the nation. You started to see this, right, Yeah,
because they want to talk about that because a lot
of anxiety over what we're seeing happening and all these
horrible including recently with a bunch of illegals who have
come into the country and should have been never allowed in,
should have been deported doing horrible, heinous, violent crime, sexual crimes.
(11:14):
But what the Democrat media is going to do is say, well,
crime is down, and they'll pick some you know, arbitrary
like crime is down substantial to the last twelve or eighteen months,
and they'll give you that number. But what they won't
give you is Okay, but how's crime looking since Biden
took office? Yeah, because you had in twenty twenty one
(11:36):
one of the worst years for homicides in this nation's
history or recent history, I should say, going back to
the nineties, and one of the worst increases in homicide
in history. Is actually the statistic I was looking for.
And so if you have a you know, a thirty
percent increase in violent crime nationwide, and then a five
(11:56):
or a ten percent decrease that's still really bad. Like
this is what people need to understand. If you look
at where Biden came into office and where inflation all
of a sudden starts to get out of control, it
doesn't look like correlation. It looks like causation. It looks like,
you know, one followed the other, as night follows day,
inflation follows Biden because he comes in and what does
(12:20):
he do opens up the spigots of useless, non productive
government spending to the tune of a couple trillion dollars
and wanted to do five trillion more and acts like
when you have more money chasing fewer goods, that doesn't
cause what we have right now, which is the increase
in prices of everything you were buying, and particularly the
(12:41):
pain that everyone suffers from liquidity and access to capital,
which is why mortgages right now are so expensive. And
this is creating all kinds of market dysfunctions, or maybe
it's not really a dysfunction, but you know, market crunches
clay because people don't want to leave. They're three percent
mortgage house yep. And we have a housing shortage nationwide.
(13:05):
We have a lot of illegals coming in who are
renting or living in houses that aren't really counted when
we're looking at what is going on with the housing supply,
and we're not going to catch up any time soon.
So this isn't like this problem is about to just
get a whole lot better. But everything that Biden has done,
I think you can pull out the most clear numbers
(13:26):
to show what a failure it is. But I do
think Trump is probably just gonna make fun of him
a lot. I think that's more likely. I think he's
probably gonna be like, look at this guy. Can't stand straight,
can't doesn't know where he is, doesn't know what time
it is.
Speaker 2 (13:39):
I think on some level, and I know this is
hard for Trump, let Biden talk as much as he can, oh,
because I think he stumbles. Well, first of all, they're
cutting mics off. But the more Biden talks, the more
of a disaster I think he creates. And it's counterintuitive.
I would go back, I don't know if they've gone
(14:00):
back and watch the tape with him. Trump was the
worst version of himself in the first debate in twenty twenty.
He was I'm sorry. I wanted him to win. I
wanted him to knock out Biden. He was so genned
up and ready to go that he was bull in
a china shop and it was just a disaster. Smoked
him by the second debate. I don't even think people
(14:20):
are gonna remember what happens in the second debate. I
think this one is going to set the tone.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
And if he just lets.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
Biden kind of stumble all over himself, I think he
can win this thing. But you know what, you're gonna get,
abortion and threats to democracy. CounterPunch often more effective than
the punch. I want to tell you. Speaking of punch
and CounterPunch, they got Biden training for a week, a
full week in the woods at Camp David. They have
done mockups of the podiums. They are training Biden so
(14:53):
he can stand for ninety minutes, so he can talk
for thirty six minutes or whatever is full speaking time
as going to end up being because he doesn't have
any energy, because he doesn't have any vim vigor, vitality,
because he doesn't have chalk. You need some testosterone in
your life. If you are out there right now and
it's Tuesday, and you're already draggon. You're like, my goodness,

I can't believe I got to make it all the
way to Friday. Maybe some of you are gonna need
a little bit of a jolt to stay up late
enough to watch Joe Biden. Maybe you're a little bit
feeling like Biden yourself. You know, my mom joked the
other day to my dad when he wasn't moving fast enough.
Come on, Biden, get with it. If you ever have
(15:39):
that joke used against you, Buck, did you see harsh
but true? It's a good line. That's a good line.
You know what somebody said about my golf game that
I'm still not recovered from.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
Buck.
Speaker 2 (15:48):
I don't even know if you saw this, because we
talked about it on Friday. They said, you put like
Biden walks. Oh you know what I'm talking about, Just
a devastating blow, just me out uppercut Mike Tyson style
back in the late eighties, early nineties. If you ever
could have you putt like Biden ascribed to you, if

out there. Welcome back in Clay. Travis buck Sexton show
a little bit of breaking news here for you. The
judge has altered merchand has Trump's gag order letting him
talk about witnesses and jury after the hush money conviction.
Not hush money, but that's the way it's described by
(17:33):
breaking nine to one one uh and uh. But that
gives him a little bit more flexibility to talk about
that case.
Speaker 1 (17:40):
Just FYI in time for the debate. Excuse me, excuse me,
he's gonna be talking about it. It's gonna be fun.
All of us, me included, earn income in the form
of dollars, right, It's what pays our bills. But there's
at least one CEO who announces change recently in terms
of compensation. His salary is a dollar. Now. You might
(18:00):
be saying, why is he doing this? Well, because he
has one of the most successful financial research firms in
our nation and he wants to make a point. Porter
Stansbury is making a dramatic term when it comes to
compensation for himself because he says he's found a much
better way to save and get paid and this can
work for you too. It's a new form of money
in America. It's making some people very rich. Porter's forthcoming
(18:25):
plan doesn't involve gold or bitcoin. It's a secret currency
that you know much about. Check out Porter's latest detailed
compensation plan online at secret Currency twenty twenty four dot com.

(18:47):
All right, so we've been talking to you about primary
day in New York and I know, well a lot
of you thank you for listening to the New York
Pricet state area. But for a lot of you the
rest of the country, you're like, Okay, well that's just
some democrats or argue with each other, and there's some
some moments getting attention on social media and online from
(19:08):
all of this. Jamal Bowman, who I have seen video
of bench pressing four hundred and five pounds. I think
he goes three reps and they're pretty clean reps. Wow,
this is praise.
Speaker 2 (19:22):
What percentage of men do you think can bingch press
four hundred pounds more? Who can dunk a basketball? I
would bet than bench press four hundred way easier dunk
of basket, Way easier dunk of basketball. I think than
to bench press four hundred. I mean because because the
height fact, Like, think of how many people. I mean,
if you're over six to two, dunking of basketball shouldn't
be hard for you, honestly. I mean when you're at
a young enough age, I mean, when you're in your
(19:44):
forties and fifties, you don't have that same kind of
vertical leap.
Speaker 1 (19:48):
Yeah, how old is Bowman? Is he fifty? Yet he's
in his fifties. So he's in his fifties and he's
benched four. He's got four plates on both sides. Mike
Cernovich shared the shared the video today and I was
looking at like, wow, you know, you know, anyway, there's
a little prep. Let's just say a little bit, a
little maybe when he loses his primary tonight, he can
(20:09):
go into professional weightlifting as a job. And he doesn't well,
he doesn't look like he's taking any special stuff. That's
the other part of this too. He doesn't. He doesn't
look to me like he's like he's taking a stack
if those are in the weight weightlifting community what I'm
talking about. He looks like he looks natural, looks like
anyway bench press. I'm just being I'm just being nice
(20:32):
because I give credit where it's due. I think he's
about to lose his congressional seat, or at least there's
a very real chance he will lose his congressional seat.
He's very fired up and a little profane, and this
is what he sounds like. Place twenty seven.
Speaker 3 (21:00):
Omen Listen, we are not gonna stand silent while US
(21:24):
tax dollars kills babies.
Speaker 1 (21:28):
This is this is fascinating, Like take a moment here.
He's got his congressional district is the Bronx. The Bronx
is there's some very lovely things about the Bronx, very
lovely areas of the Bronx. A lot of poverty and
a lot of crime in the Bronx too, right here
in America, going on right here day after day. He
(21:48):
is a congressman representing the Bronx, and he is one
of four hundred and thirty five votes and is focused
on Gaza in his speech. Now, this is particularly interesting
because on the other side of this equation you have
his his competitor, who is getting millions millions of dollars
(22:15):
and is much more friendly, has raised millions of dollars,
spend millions dollars and it is much more friendly toward
the state of Israel than Jamal Bowman is. So what
I see happening here, this could be viewed, I think
as a George Latimer. This could be viewed as a
as a bit of a test here. It's fascinating if
(22:37):
he loses Clay think about this congressman from the Bronx
may lose his seat because he's obsessed with the plight
of Gaza, not of Bronx residents. Is cheering and screaming
about what's going on in Kaza's five thousand miles away.
And because of that focus, and because of what seems
(22:57):
to be maybe a bit of anti Semitism, I don't know,
probably with some probably what some people are saying, Uh,
you have Latimer able to make a real go of
it here. I'm trying to find how much money?
Speaker 2 (23:10):
Well, let me also add this while you look up
the money, because Latimer has raised.
Speaker 1 (23:13):
Three zero point five million dollars for a congressional race.
Speaker 2 (23:19):
That is massive. And you'll know this and our WR
listeners will as well. But this district is actually kind
of a fascinating district. It's the sixteenth congressional district in
New York and again the Democrat. It's a Democrat seat.
It's going to be decided tonight. But it also goes
buck into Scarsdale, which is a very wealthy, mostly white area.
(23:42):
It also goes up into in Westchester County for those
of you who know this area. So it is a
he's doing that rally and screaming f bombs in the Bronx.
I immediately think this doesn't play very well at all
in Scarsdale. Now, this is this is different than voting
for as you're pointing out, this is why I don't
see necessarily liberal Jews in America. We already had the
(24:08):
conservative Jews. We already you know, we get conservative Jews
are already on the team Republican, and you know they've
already with us, right, so they're they're already voting Trump,
and they have voter Trump in the past. Liberal Jews
I don't see in large numbers switching over. You think
maybe they will, we'll see what happens in the election,
you know, meaning ten large numbers is like a ten
to fifteen percent swing that would be considered you know,
(24:29):
five percent or less is just kind of whatever.
Speaker 1 (24:31):
That's another election year. But what you have. Here is
a chance for a chance for Democrat voters who are
let's you know, Democrat voters who are Jewish in this district,
Scarsdale in Westchester, for example, large Jewish populations. Some of
these areas have a large Jewish popular yeap to be
able to say, well, I'm definitely not voting for the
(24:54):
guy who is pro Hamas and making buddy buddies with
all the anti Semites out there, and if you can
still vote for a Democrat and have your voice heard
in that. With that, what I'm saying is I could
definitely see some Democrats moving away from what I think
is rightly called the AOC wing. And by the way,
AOC here here she is. She was at the rally.
(25:16):
In case you're wondering, trying to help Jamal Bowman not
Latimer play it. She's horrible. I'll stop. I don't I know.
Speaker 2 (25:43):
Actually when you played that audio, you saw it for
you watching on video, cring my ears.
Speaker 1 (25:49):
He actually physically cringed. And I played that and I
didn't want to. You know what, I'm here for you.
I'm not making you suffer through more of that than
you absolutely have to. So we had producer mind turn
it down right away, because it is. It is brutal
for your ear. Drums, Okay, she's shrinking, she's screaming. What
I find fascinating is take this borough back. It's the Bronx.
(26:12):
This should be like Stalin dancing around Moscow in nineteen
forty seven or something and being like, we have to
take this place back from the Communists, Like it's the Bronx.
It is as democrat as Democrat gets over there. I
mean the Bronx Brooklyn. So who is she taking the
borough back from? That's it. I just think that's it interesting, like, yeah,
(26:32):
we're gonna finally be in charge of the place that
we've been in charge of for the last I mean,
when was the last time the Bronx was a majority Republican.
It would I think, honestly World War two era. You
have to go back like nineteen four and I don't
even know if it was Republican then I'm just saying
you'd have to go back basically one hundred years. You know,
people forget like Calvin Coolidge, just a Republican from Massachusetts.
(26:54):
That used to be a thing. There used to be
Republicans who could win office, who were real Republicans, not
a Mitt Romney Massachusetts Republican.
Speaker 2 (27:02):
I am looking he won, Jamal Bowman did Buck to
your point, taking it back, in the twenty twenty election,
he got eighty four percent of the vote. The conservative
I'm not even sure he was an official. He just
says conservative, It doesn't say Republican. Got fifteen percent of
the vote. So to your point on like take it back,
we're talking about in eighty five, fifteen, and in twenty twenty,
(27:25):
Trump won twenty five.
Speaker 1 (27:26):
Percent of the vote in this district, so it was
a seventy five a D plus fifty district and Latimer
right now, Buck ninety percent likely to win tonight according
to the gambling markets. Bowman's going down. I mean, it
would be a huge upset now if he won. But
don't you.
Speaker 2 (27:45):
Agree with me when we played that screaming shrieking of
AOC and also a Bowman, do you think that plays
well in Scarsdale? Do you think people in white plains
are like, that's definitely who I want repping me. It's
very strange behavior by them. What you have is very
apparently there is a a political race divide within the
(28:05):
Democrat Party where there has been a lot of pandering
by black and Hispanic members of Congress to the Palestinian issue, because,
as we've discussed, they view it as you know, solidarity
of of non white people with non white people.
Speaker 1 (28:22):
That is as simple as it is for them. And
a lot of lifelong Democrat Jewish voters have got to
be looking at this and saying, wait a second, like,
you're with you're with the Palestinians after what Hamas just did,
and you're with the campus protests which aren't really protests
and a lot of cases they're just harassment operations of
(28:43):
Jewish students. You stand with them on that. I mean,
it doesn't play in my view so badly in Scarsdale
that the liberal liberal Jewish voters woul vote for Trump,
but they'll vote for Latimer over Jamal Bowman. That's for
darn Shore.
Speaker 2 (28:56):
Yeah, and a good example of this, there's a generational conflict.
Hillary Clinton came out opposed to Bowman, which is I mean,
you can criticize Hillary for many things, as we have
done regularly on this show. To her credit, Hillary has
is right on Israel. I mean, she is right on
Israel's ability to defend itself. And Bowman has been so
(29:21):
anti Israel that even Democrats, who I don't think usually
would weigh in on a congressional Democrat primary. Hillary Clinton
came out in favor of Latimer and she lift for
those of you out there like saying, well, why would
she be weighing in. She lives close to maybe even
in this district. You would know the geography better than me.
But her she lives in Westchester, so she's very qui
(29:43):
claw Chapa, if Chappaquaw might be in this area. I
was just looking up the demo forty percent white in
this district, twenty percent Latino, twenty percent black. So obviously
as you move north into the richer suburbs have become
a very white district. But Bowman's going after that twenty
(30:03):
percent of black vote and honestly, turn out in a
lot of primaries, as we've talked about, in many cases
not very high, but he is expected to get the
heave ho here.
Speaker 1 (30:14):
And as you made the joke if he were going
to pull a fire alarm, that would be a good
time to pull a fire alarm. Yeah, Well, his what
two things is to well, now I guess three because
of the impressive the impressive bench presscause the little jealous
I'm definitely I'm nowhere near four plates on each side territory,
I'll admit. But he's most famous for pulling the fire
(30:35):
alarm and being like I was confused about it. Neveryone's
like you're on video you weren't confused about it, and
then being an anti semi basically, or siding with Hamas
against the Jewish people, which, as we've said, people in
the Scarsdale area, people in Riverdale not pleased with that,
and I think understandably so. But it's really about the
(30:56):
AOC Bernie Sanders wing of the Democrat Party. Is this
a bell weather for whether they will be a drag
on Democrat fortunes going forward, which would could be very
big in this in this election. It's different though, as
I've said, it's different in a primary than in a general. Right,
what someone's willing, someone's willing to change their mind about
(31:18):
a primary candidate or to shift their positioning on that.
That's not the same thing as switching over and voting
for Trump. But it could be take some of your
calls to close us out here in a second. But
you know, if you had a million dollars fifteen years ago.
You know how much you'll be worth today, thanks Uncle Sam.
Less than seven hundred thousand dollars. That's a thirty percent
(31:38):
loss to out of government control, or rather out of control.
It's definitely the government's control. Out of control government spending.
It takes a toll on your hard earned dollars. That's
why central banks and savvy investors are buying gold right now.
For thousands of years, gold has withstood war, famine, economic
down terms, all kinds of government estro fees. It is

Today seek out with the guys on the Sunday Hang
with Clay Buck podcast. A new episode of Every Sunday.
Speaker 2 (33:03):
Find it on the iHeart Am or wherever you get
your podcasts. Finishing up the Tuesday edition of the show, Buck,
I mentioned New York sixteen, which is what we just
talked about. George Latimer against Jamal Bowman. The numbers are
even crazier than I thought. Eighty two thousand dollars bet
in polymarket, Latimer ninety seven percent chance to win this
(33:27):
race and eliminate Jamal Bowman and probably end Bowman's political career.
So to your point on what will the fallout be,
this should be an interesting story that we can talk
about tomorrow. But yeah, look, there's always upsets, anything crazy
can happen. But Latimer is as big of a favorite
(33:48):
to win this primary, almost as AOC is to win
in herb district. Just worth thinking about, right there. Remember
AOC kind of came out of nowhere to get elected.
What was it like six years ago, something like that,
winning a big upset over a guy who had repped
her district for a long time. Latimer expected to wipe
the floor with Jamal Bowman. And if that happens, our
(34:12):
buddy Jamal Bowman may have trouble getting out of bed tomorrow,
and I helpe he try some crocket coffee. Maybe he'll
learn that America is a good place. And if he
wants to talk about killing babies, there's a lot of
babies being killed in the United States that he's totally
fine with. Maybe focus on that instead of worrying about
what's going on in Gaza.
Speaker 1 (34:29):
I just I think it's so interesting that there's this
whole section. Would it's not a fringe, It's not just
a little it's not a wing, a whole contingent of
the Democrat Party. Maybe it's twenty thirty percent of the
Democrat Party that at this point the same way. Remember
when they were obsessed with Ukraine a couple of years ago,
they were obsessed with Ukraine. Yeah, I remember thinking myself,
(34:52):
there are so many problems right here in America. You're
flying this Ukraine flag and all this stuff. Ukraine is
losing the war against Russia right now now, But you
don't hear anyone talking about this, right I can get
any mentioned. They just sort of stopped caring as the
war went on, and and you know, we continued to
get writing bigger and bigger checks and sending more more munitions.
(35:14):
That they care more about Gaza than anything going on here.
And as I mentioned, they care more about Gaza than
they do about what's going on in Darfur for sure,
where there are militias going around raping and murdering people
by the tens of thousands. And you know it just
why Gaza so much, isn't it kind of fascinating, like
of all the things to if you live in an
(35:34):
area where people are being shot, where there's you know,
tons of drug abuse and homelessness, which a lot of
parts of the Bronx unfortunately fall into that category, you're
so worried about Gaza.
Speaker 2 (35:48):
It's a great point. And I think that's why the
relevance of the Trump campaign to just say, hey, America first,
it's really resonating, I think with black, white, Asian and
Hispanic voters, and in particular there's still a lot of
women out there that are emotionally connected to their opinions
of Trump as opposed to his actual policies. But I
(36:09):
was reading today in New York Times, as I often do,
because I want to know what they're talking about behind
enemy lines, I will say, Buck, there are a lot
of Democrats terrified of what's going to happen Secretly in
the debate. They might claim publicly, oh, Biden's sharp as attack.
You should see him behind closed doors. You don't go
away for a week and hide your president if you're
(36:31):
convinced that he's going to be incredible in that debate.
There is a lot of nervousness. I cannot wait to
see what's going to happen there. We appreciate all of
you hanging out with us. Thanks again for three years
of fun.
Speaker 1 (36:43):
More to come.
