Speaker 1 (00:00):
Welcome everybody.
Speaker 2 (00:01):
Monday edition of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show
starts right now. Appreciate you all hanging out with us,
spending some time with us here. Much to dive into.
Clay back from a wonderful weekend of Trump and Nced
double a wrestling flying on Trump Force one, no less
air Force one. He will break down all of the
(00:22):
biggest takeaways from this and all that play. I assume
you had a fantastic time.
Speaker 3 (00:29):
I did, and just to be clear, I imagine that
I have set a record that probably may not have
been ever in existence. I landed in New York City
and Philadelphia and then returned to Washington, DC with President
Trump and I landed like midnight we did on Saturday,
(00:51):
turning into Sunday, checked into the hotel, woke up our early,
headed straight to the airport, and hopped on a Southwest
Airlines flight. How many pe people do you think have
gone Air Force one to Southwest Airlines? I would say
that is probably the extreme. You can't go in different
more extreme for aviation. So that was my arrive in
(01:14):
DC on Air Force one, leave Air Force one on
Southwest Airlines and anyway, we've got a lot to talk about.
We've got some good clips from President Trump. He wanted
to tell all of you he'll be on with us
soon and that he is proud of the success this
show is having and that he misses Rich So he
wanted me to tell all of you that and that
(01:38):
he is thankful. And I talked to you about it, Buck.
I mean, maybe my biggest takeaway is just how comfortable
he looks. He just has done this before. And I
think anytime you have a brand new job, whether it's
president of the United States or president of a company,
or heck, just a manager for the first time, you
don't really know what you don't know, and he knows
(02:00):
exactly how to do this job, and he just seems
very very comfortable in it. And I think you can
see that through the first sixty days how well things
have gone.
Speaker 2 (02:10):
So yeah, I saw some clips from the wrestling Championships.
Look like it was I've never seen an NCAA wrestling
tournament get so much attention, So Trump going there has
elevated elevated that sport in a way that I have
never seen before. We've also got updates on the border
and and immigration. I know Trump klay spoke to you
(02:32):
about that. Will play that clip in a little bit.
I do want to spend some time today on the
woke snow White disaster. Yeah, just because I think it
is part of the overall trend right now.
Speaker 1 (02:48):
I think it is.
Speaker 2 (02:49):
It's part of what we've seen, which is this woke
stuff now doesn't not only does not work anymore increasingly
they clown themselves when they try this. They are making
big mistakes in the marketplace. From what I saw, it
cost somewhere in the two hundred and fifty million dollars
plus range to make the movie. Yeh, you add marketing
into that. Marketing is usually one hundred percent of production budget,
(03:12):
as I understand it, not that I'm in the movie business,
but that's what I've read, and it has made. It
made forty million dollars in its opening weekend.
Speaker 1 (03:21):
That's what That's what we've been told.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
So I think there's something something to be discussed here
about all the decisions that were made. Snow White is
like a boss girl. Now. It's not about like you know,
happily ever after and finding true love and prince charming.
Speaker 1 (03:35):
She's a boss girl.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
Yeah, nobody wants to see this crap, and maybe they
should figure that out, or they won't, and things will
things will start to continue to fall apart from them.
Tim Walls is backpedaling on what he said about Tesla.
I remember Clay last week. We gave him a really
tough time about the Tesla situation, as I think anyone should.
When he says that he's rooting for Tesla stock to
(03:57):
go down dramatically. It's moronic for somebody in this country
to say that for a whole range of reasons, especially
for a Democrat who's supposed to care about climate change.
But I was gonna start with this Judge Boseburg. Remember
this guy, Clay, the one that wanted the planes to
turn around, has rejected the Trump administration's attempt to rescind
(04:18):
his restraining order, and he says that he thinks the
Venezuelans mark for deportation under the Enemy Alien Enemies Act
are likely to win. They're entitled to hearings, they're entitled
to due process. Democrats are now in the position of
going to the mat to defend who we believe are
(04:39):
violent gang members who are in the country. I think
this is going to continue to just pile up the
els the losses for all Democrats.
Speaker 3 (04:50):
Yeah, the big structural issue that is in play, and
we have talked about this a lot, but I don't
think most people really have understood exactly how this is designed.
All of these federal district court judges, and they're about
six hundred of them, roughly half of them are left
(05:10):
wing appointees, and they have decided that they are going
to be the front line's opposition to allowing any sort
of success for the Trump administration. And this is just
designed to be roadblocks against the Trump train. And they
know this is what we told you would happen. But
(05:33):
it's why the Trump team is moving so fast. They
know that if they can get a part of Congress back, right,
if they can win the House, because they're not going
to take the Senate back, once they get to the
summer of twenty twenty six, everything bogs down. So really
Trump has now in order to get his agenda underway,
(05:53):
about a year and we hope that he is going
to be able to retain the House and that certainly
he's going to have the Senate to work for, but
really they know he's a one term president now and
he's got to get a ton done in the first
eighteen months, and they're basically decided the best way to
keep that from happening is to throw themselves athwart his agenda.
Speaker 1 (06:16):
This is the judges.
Speaker 3 (06:17):
What should happen is the Supreme Court should step in
rather quickly on some of these things and say this
is clearly within the province of the president's powers. I
was reading in the Wall Street Journal this morning a
well articulated argument about how if the president doesn't have
the ability to deport violent felons who are not citizens,
(06:43):
what in the world does he have the ability to
do That seems buck to me the very foundation of
the president's powers.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
Yes, well, this is why I think this judge is
likely to be, you know, be found wrong on this.
I think he will be overturned. I think that there's
no chance that he is going to get his questions say,
no chance, it's a low chance he's going to end
up getting his way in this. But the problem, and
this is what keeps coming up again and again, is
that the slow down and the like I always say,
(07:14):
the process is the punishment. The ability to make this
stuff all have to go to court over and over
again is just meant to prevent Trump from implementing the
agenda with the clear election win and the I think
decisive momentum he has politically after let's just be honest,
Democrat misrule and complete and utter failure on a whole
(07:40):
range of issues. So they're going to try to slow
everything down, and I think that on the side of
things that we see right now, what they're doing is
just intended to be more of the same we saw
this in twenty sixteen, So I Clay, I am hopeful
that there will be some way that the Supreme Court
is to weigh in here and stop them from continuing
(08:03):
to just use this as the sabotage mechanism of the
Trump administration. But it's frustrating to watch this because think
about this, the federal judges. I keep pointing this out
to people because I think it's so important. People were
held for over a year. Remember the whole thing about
a speedy trial in this country. People were held for
over a years in many cases in solitary who were
(08:23):
US citizens, and some of them were entirely non violent
j six individuals, and the entire legal apparatus, for the
most part, was unwilling to say anything about due process
or presumption of innocence. It was they were insurrectionists. Now
we've got presumably members of Trenda Arragua who are in
(08:44):
the country illegally, who are part of a horrifically violent
and heinous gang, and the Democrats are doing everything they
can to make sure it's as hard as possible so
to get them to leave the country, to kick them
out of the country. And people are going to suffer
as a result of this stuff because the longer these
gang members or gang members who are here illegally in
(09:05):
general stand the country, the more murders and rapes and
assaults and armed robberies and all of that will occur.
And they just the Democrats just don't care because Trump
is doing it, so it must be bad.
Speaker 3 (09:15):
Yeah, And it used to be a very rare occurrence
for a federal district court judge to try to enjoin
nationally an issue because there was a question about whether
they had the ability to do it, and you would
tend to have judges on a federal district court level
who would focus on their particular region. This is a
(09:38):
dispute that is taking place, Oh, I don't know, in
the in the Southern District of New York and so
we're going to focus on exactly what's going on there,
and we're not going to make this action apply one
judge's opinion apply nationwide. Now, there seems to be a
very aggressive posture from the judiciary where they want to
(10:01):
have their ruling apply nationwide. And here's the other thing
that is worth contemplating. This is how these judges think
they're going to get.
Speaker 1 (10:11):
Promotions.
Speaker 3 (10:12):
If you're the federal district court judge who stands up
to Donald Trump the next time that there are Democrats
in a position of power controlling the White House, and
it will happen again. They will elevate these judges, and
they will try to get them on the circuit court level,
or maybe you even bump yourself all the way up
to the front of the line to become a Supreme
(10:35):
Court justice. It's not just that they see themselves as
throwing themselves athwart the Trump administration and they want to
stay in these jobs. It's how they see their ability
to elevate themselves. These judges are now the resistance two
point zero Democrat party politics has collapsed, The legacy media
(10:56):
buy and large has collapsed. What is left is I
think quite clearly the opposition coming from the federal district
court judges, and the Supreme Court should step in buck
because at least it takes five typically Supreme Court justices
to agree to have a law enjoining the president of
the United States. Right now we have six hundred individual
(11:18):
judges who believe it's within their authority to stop the
president from doing something.
Speaker 2 (11:24):
So we'll continue to watch this closely because it's obviously
very important that Trump sees this through and continues on this.
The good news is the I think people are recognizing
that Trump knows what he's doing with the economy, or
more people are seeing this. There are one or two
off weeks in the stock market is utterly meaningless.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
In the grand scheme of things.
Speaker 2 (11:47):
The border security situation is much better than I even
anticipated it could be at this point, with a ninety
five percent reduction in illegal crossings. You know, we are
two months into this administration and there are already substantial
wins to point to, and they are continuing to just
keep it all rolling. So they're absolutely keeping the promises.
(12:09):
They're doing what they said. Trump's doing what he said
he would do. Elon and Doze is forcing a necessary
conversation not just for less wasteful and more efficient government,
but saving us from financial oblivion as a nation. I
think that's a pretty big deal, and it's just so
interesting for me, I think, to see how as this
(12:30):
plays out, there are more and more ways, more and
more areas you can point here where you say we
are trying to fix things, or our side is trying
to get things done that matter and that are important,
and the Democrats are just petty and spiteful and completely
rudderless other than trying to sabotage Trump. Really, they exist.
(12:51):
The Democrat Party exists right now, not for ideas, not
for solutions, but to come up with ways to make
sure that Trump can't get things done, even including things
that any rational person should want to happen. And I
think this is also why the Tesla situation plays the
way that it does play. The people that are so
scared about climate change hate Tesla now, they're just crazy.
(13:13):
They just hate whatever our side is trying to do.
Speaker 1 (13:15):
That's totally right.
Speaker 3 (13:16):
We'll break that down for you, and more lots of
good stuff coming your way. Want to tell you, though,
something not going well. What Israel is facing right now
on Saturday has Bull of Phile fired rockets into Matula
in northern Israel. We toured there last December with the
International Fellowship of Christians and Jews. Thankfully, the IDF was
able to intercept those missiles, but on Sunday renewed fighting
(13:40):
with Hamas in the south in Gaza. The IFCJ has
continued to support the people of Israel life saving security essentials.
I saw it all myself. Your gift to this nonprofit
organization today will help save lives by providing bomb shelters,
armored security vehicles, ambulances, firefighting equipment, flack jackets, bulletproof best
(14:00):
so much more. Your generous donation today will help ensure
the people of Israel are safe and secure in the
days to come. Give a gift to bless Israel and
her people by visiting SUPPORTIFCJ dot org. That's one word,
SUPPORTIFCJ dot org. You can also call eight eight eight

Speaker 1 (14:30):
You ain't imagining it. The world has gone insane. We
claim your sanity with clay and fun.
Speaker 3 (14:37):
Find them on the free iHeartRadio app or wherever you
get your podcasts. Welcome back in Clay Travis buck Sexton Show.
Appreciate all of you hanging out with us. We are
rolling through the Monday edition of the program. A lot
going on. Let's let me play this because I think
it's a pretty uh, pretty funny buck. I asked President
(15:00):
as the fallout from Tim Walls uh, saying that he
would be able to beat up most Trump supporters about that.
But Walls then walked back the fact that he's rooting
against Tesla by saying, oh, that I was just joking
and people didn't understand. Here's cut eighteen. Walls backtracking in
(15:22):
a hurry.
Speaker 4 (15:23):
This guy bugs me in a way that is probably
unhealthy and so but but I have to be careful
about being a smart ass. I was making a joke.
These people have no sense of humor. They are the
most literal people, most literal people. But my point was
they're all mad and I, you know, said something I
didn't you know, probably shouldn't have about a company.
Speaker 1 (15:47):
He has agreed. I agree, So I make the case.
Speaker 4 (15:53):
I make the case they're all but hurt about the
Tesla thing, but they.
Speaker 1 (15:58):
Don't care the distress.
Speaker 4 (16:00):
I bet they have shown to employees at the Minneapolis
VA who care for our veterans can acquire them.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
They don't care.
Speaker 3 (16:07):
Okay this first of all, what happened, Buck, was suddenly Walls,
who is a moron, recognize that the Minnesota pension fund
has a million shairs of Tesla stock. And right now,
by the way, Tesla stock is surging. It is a
good day for the stock market. And again everybody wants
(16:28):
to focus on the price up nearly ten percent. It's
up twenty three dollars a share. So I think this
clip is going to come back. We should probably talk
about it a little bit more because I do think
it's emblematic of how lost Democrats are, Buck, but that
you would be cheering against the number one American car
company in the world, the first successful one to be
(16:48):
built in one hundred years. Is I think the broken
brain syndrome that you were just talking about, well, I
think that Democrats are the party of spite. Now they're
just spiteful, They're angry. They were humiliated. You have to
remember that too. It was the media predominantly, but the
Democrat Party overall was humiliated in this last election. They
(17:10):
had to abandon their dementia puppet Joe Biden. They had
to pretend that Kamala wasn't the worst candidate than any
of us have ever seen in a presidential election representing
a party in our lifetime. And then they had to
tell their base, Oh, yeah, Trump's not going to prison.
He's going to be president again with a mandate, with
a all swing state victory under his belt, and a
(17:32):
Republican majority in the House, in the Senate. You know,
they're just they're just bitter.
Speaker 1 (17:36):
Man.
Speaker 2 (17:36):
I think there's a there's a period here where the
Democrats are finding themselves just trying to work through this
intense resentment of reality that is really what they have
become as a party. So yeah, it's rough for them,
But don't worry. Trump's still going forward with good stuff.
You know what, I just got a few days ago
on new shipment of Good Ranchers. I was making myself
(17:58):
some delicious chicken from Good Ranchers over the weekend, and
yes that included some of the nuggets. But this week

into Clay. So play was hanging you know with the
(19:03):
big guy, as one does this past weekend. He was
flying around on Air Force one and have time with
the leader free World.
Speaker 1 (19:13):
And I think this is the first time. Maybe first time.
Speaker 2 (19:17):
Maybe I can think of where the President of the
United States is truly just the most famous person on
the planet. I think Donald Trump is more famous and
recognizable than any other human being. You know, there are
usually some sports stars back in the day would have
been I think Michael Jordan Ronaldo the soccer player.
Speaker 1 (19:34):
If you're just.
Speaker 2 (19:35):
Pure recognizable mass see, yes, who's met near where you
are now? Like, I mean, yes, these are I think
Trump is the most famous person on the planet as
well as being the president, which is pretty remarkable thing.
Karen and I have started watching you know, I never
watched the original Apprentice.
Speaker 1 (19:55):
I just never. I didn't watch it. I don't know.
I guess I was in college.
Speaker 2 (20:00):
And you go back and watch it now, and you know,
he's quite a showman.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
It's pretty fine. I watched it. It was a really
good show the first couple of show years. Yeah. But
the but I mean, he carries the show, that's the thing.
It's not.
Speaker 2 (20:11):
It's not like American Idol where you can have a
bunch of interchangeable judges.
Speaker 1 (20:15):
He is the show.
Speaker 2 (20:17):
Yes, Like without him, there is no show, you know,
that's the thing. I mean, it's well produced, and everything else.
Obviously it was super successful. But okay, back to uh,
I just thought that's interesting. Now they've got it. I
think it's on Amazon now. But Clay asked Trump, that's
why we're thinking about Trump right now. About the incident
where Tim Walls is saying he thinks he could kick
(20:38):
people's asses or whatever. And this is how he responded.
This is cut six.
Speaker 1 (20:44):
You saw Tim Walls.
Speaker 5 (20:45):
I know you've talked about Tim Walls saying he could
beat up Trump supporters. You see Kaitlyn Jenner said that
that that she that she thought she would be able
to take him. Who would you take in a battle,
Kaitlyn Jenner Tim Walls?
Speaker 1 (21:00):
I also have you know Kane?
Speaker 6 (21:03):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (21:03):
How about Kane? Oh?
Speaker 5 (21:04):
Glynn is an awesome guy. He challenged him. I put
up ten grand for that too, and the challenges. I
don't think Tim Walls is responding.
Speaker 1 (21:12):
Second, he's like seven feet down the biggest. He's an
awesome guy. He's a great guy too. He's a mayor
of a town and he's all that good that's going.
Speaker 3 (21:22):
Jacob's mayor of Knoxville. I think we've had him on
the show before. Former w w E wrestler and by
the way, that was on Air Force one. So inevitably
there's gonna be audio. Uh, we'll play a couple of
the cuts and audio guy or gal. It's going to
be like, why isn't the audio bet was not a
formal studio, it's literally sitting on Air Force sound like
(21:44):
you I was the difference in the vocal is really pronounced?
Speaker 1 (21:48):
Was that with your iPhone? Was with an iPhone?
Speaker 3 (21:51):
Ah. That's why they wanted to They wanted to have
and I'm going to write about it at out Kick.
They wanted written articles. They didn't want to necessarily. Look,
this is part of the new media initiative, and so Buck,
you're gonna be up at some point, we're going to
be up. They're trying to do a good job. And
I think this is important of reaching out to new
audience as opposed to consistently giving the associated press access
(22:16):
or giving access to frankly, media outlets that don't actually
produce very substantial audiences anymore. They saw in the election
that reaching out to new audiences was actually far more effective,
frankly than sitting down sometimes with CBS or NBC or ABC,
who you know is going to be unfair and I
(22:37):
was reading actually that Brett Bayer in his serious newscast
on Fox News is often now beating ABC, NBC, CBS.
And there's still lots of people who watch those old
legacy media outlets, but their audience is collapsing in many ways.
And so this is the way the media under Trump,
Caroline Levitt's team is trying to reach out to new audience.
Speaker 2 (23:01):
Yes, we have been talking for a long time about
how Democrat corporate media has been really running on you know,
the legacy aspect of it and the pace one. It's
running on fume fuge. It's running on fumes. And now
this is now things have actually happened. It's like bankruptcy
comes slowly, then suddenly the collapse of the Democrat media
(23:25):
has come slowly, slowly, then suddenly We've seen this coming
for a long time.
Speaker 1 (23:29):
But it was very clear.
Speaker 2 (23:31):
I think that if if what happened did happen, which
is they all said Donald Trump's going to go to prison,
Democrats are getting another four years, and they go all
in on that, and then.
Speaker 1 (23:41):
It doesn't happen.
Speaker 2 (23:43):
Like I've been saying, Clay, it's not just that they
have lost all credibility with the center and then to
the right of the country. They really left their own
side looking foolish and high and dry. And that's the
thing that you get. You can't make your audience feel
like idiots in the media business and get away with it,
right and Democrats watch MSNBC and believe all that nonsense.
(24:03):
They look like fools now. And that's the part of
it that I think is really cause. And see ann
same thing causing the business model to collapse.
Speaker 3 (24:11):
And Tim Wall's coming out that cut that we played
for you where he said, oh I was joking. He
wasn't joking. I mean when you specifically say I've got
the stock app and I root against emon musk company Tesla,
that is a direct attack. And the stock price has
gone up fifty dollars since Tim Walls attacked the company,
(24:34):
So that is not insubstantial. If you just bought on
the day that Tim Walls was bragging about how Tesla
was doing a poor job, then you would have done well.
Speaker 1 (24:43):
But finally the media.
Speaker 3 (24:44):
Did its job there and they pointed out they said,
wait a minute, Minnesota's pension funds, of which all of
the retirees from state government that are invested in, has
millions of shares of Tesla stock, as you could well
predict if you understood basic market economics at all, because
it's one of the biggest companies in the world, and
(25:06):
certainly American companies are going to be strongly invested in
by American pension funds. So Walls is actually rooting against
his own retirees when he's bragging about the company not
doing well and not wanting it to succeed.
Speaker 1 (25:18):
Well.
Speaker 2 (25:18):
This is what we talked about last week, pointing out
that to root against Tesla is really to root against
the American economy, not just because it's an all American
company truly. I mean everything is made here, designed here,
built here. It's all made here in America. I think
the primary factories in the Austin, Texas area, right, that's
the the.
Speaker 1 (25:38):
I think they've got them all over.
Speaker 3 (25:40):
I know their primary headquarters is now in Austin, but
they've got They've done a good job.
Speaker 2 (25:44):
Their biggest factory, yeah, I mean their biggest factory. I
think it's the one they like, the megafactory they had
built it off. Anyway, point is, it's all here in America.
And there are a number of companies that have been
creating so much wealth that it actually props up much
of the stock market, which means means you need this
stuff in order to meet pension obligations. So this is
(26:06):
why it's very important people talk about the markets. They
need to understand it's not just you know, because the
way Democrats speak about it isn't really so funny. Most
hedge fund managers vote Democrat, but Democrats speak of hedge
fund managers or Wall Street quote unquote with disdain, even
though it's their team primarily. But beyond that, if you work,
if you're on a city pension plan anywhere in the country,
(26:27):
they're not going to be able to meet the obligations
to you and your family as a cop, as a firefighter,
as a teacher. If you know, Facebook, Amazon, Netflix, Google, Tesla,
if these companies don't do well, So to root against them, yes,
is to root for a recession essentially, or to you know,
to root in the case of Tesla, for one of
(26:50):
the most important American companies to be doing poorly.
Speaker 1 (26:53):
I mean it would be like, you.
Speaker 2 (26:54):
Know, seventy years ago, rooting against general motors, like what
are you doing, which is why Tim Wallas has now
walked it back.
Speaker 3 (27:01):
It also, I think it just speaks to how many
morons there are at the top of the Democrat Party.
I was reading Axios this morning, which I like to do.
I get their free am distillation of what the news
is out there, and they had a lot of Democrats saying,
this is the worst the Democrat Party position they've been
(27:23):
in in fifty years. They don't really know what in
the world to do and how to handle the situation
that they are in. There is a full fledged panic
that is quietly building inside of the Democrat Party because
there's a great stat out there, Buck, eighteen year olds,
that is the first time you're voting, and maybe there
(27:44):
are some of you out there listening to this on podcast,
eighteen year olds, I'd love to hear from you, the
young first time voters. They have broken more conservative than
seventy five year old voters. Let me repeat that, eighteen
year bite, sorry, eighteen year old boys. Eighteen year old
boys voted more conservative in this election. As the data
(28:06):
is continuing to come out than seventy five year old
men did. They've never seen anything like this historically, and
I think there is a panic setting. And I talked
about this, Buck because my fifteen year old. And that's
still kind of crazy to me that I'm going to
have two voters that are my kids in the twenty
twenty eight election. My fifteen year old said, and he's right,
(28:30):
based on everything I see around him, he said, Dad,
for when the first time I can vote, I can't
wait to vote Republican in twenty twenty eight. And my
seventeen year old said the same thing. They haven't been
able to vote yet, and all of their friends this
next like five to six years. I think you have
to call it kind of the COVID generation. Young men,
(28:52):
young boys now they are voting. I mean, isn't that
a crazy stat I think a lot of you out
there who are in this age rage like you're beaming
if you're listening to us. It's not getting talked about
a lot, but it's starting to circulate. Eighteen year old
boys voted more conservatively than seventy five year old men.
That is what never happened. I don't think in the
(29:14):
history of the United States elections, certainly not anybody's lives
right now.
Speaker 2 (29:18):
I think that I think that COVID played a large
role in their formative years. They're thinking the same way
you know, nine to eleven played a huge role in
people that are that are play your age, my I know,
in all of our lives, but yes, in terms of
life path, A lot of us, how many of you
listening right now joined the military because of nine to
eleven and your sense of patriotism and that we have enemies,
(29:41):
and nine to eleven was formative, particularly formative for people
who were military age men and women. Okay, that's just
what we saw the nine to eleven generation. I think
there's also now a COVID generation. It's very different, but
I think it has a similar degree of impact on
psychology and sense of the way we interact with our
(30:03):
government and whether we are citizens or subjects. Because they
were lied to about all this stuff. I mean, the
New York Times is now coming out and saying the
COVID lab leak came from the Wuhan thing of Wuhan
Institute of Virology. Probably now they're five years late on
this one. But the point is they were lied to.
Their lives were disrupted, and they were their interests and
(30:26):
needs were cast aside for hysterical, low testosterone democrat men
and who were older. And they realized this and they're
not forgiving it, and they shouldn't. And also the anti
masculinity stuff that they get subjected to is completely beyond
the pale they've seen that it's crazier with them than
(30:46):
it has ever been before You and I grew up.
Speaker 3 (30:49):
And this is what I'm writing about in the new
book that I'm working on. You and I grew up
buck roughly in an arrow when this girl power, girl
boss thing rose. But it wasn't in eighties in the
nineteen nineties like I wasn't, and you weren't constantly steeped
in the idea that boys are awful. Every little kid
growing up today who is eleven, twelve, thirteen years old
(31:12):
and a little bit older and a little bit younger
if they're a boy, and a lot of you out
there are boy moms, and you experience this too, and
you look around and you're you don't have to tear
boys down to give girls equal opportunity. And I think
we moved from hey, girls can do anything and boys
can do anything, and that's something to celebrate to boys
(31:34):
are a problem and we have to tear down boys
to elevate girls.
Speaker 2 (31:38):
I completely agree with that, but I would also add
girls actually can't do anything. Girls can't girls can't have
a child in their sixties, can't do it. You know
that's actually reality. You can't. Biology really exist? Yes, biology exists.
A woman is not going to pass Navy seal training
an actual biological female. Like that's not going to happen,
even though they were hoping that it would, you know all.
(32:00):
You know, so yeah, going to dominate the NBA, right,
like that is not going to happen. But you know,
this is why I think anybody, this is why the
gender thing has mattered so much because to the gender,
to the generation that has come up with the most
radicalized gender ideology being imposed on them, they realize these
(32:21):
people are nuts. Yeah, they're actually deranged. This is a
deranged philosophy. It is not based in reality. And whether
you're you know, thirteen or thirty, you should be able
to see that. And I think that a lot of
teenagers now who are just able to vote, are saying, yeah, no,
I know what's going on here.
Speaker 3 (32:39):
I think also a lot of women are rejecting the
idea that men should be more feminine. I think a
lot of you out there don't like that. You know,
we created this world where women should be more masculine
and men should be more feminine. And I think, in particular,
a lot of women out there like I don't want
to date a femine first of all, lots of men. Why, Like,
(33:02):
if you're a woman and you sit down across the
table from the guy and he says like, I'm a
huge feminist, you should just stand up and leave because
I think he's lying to you. And male feminists are
I think probably the least trustworthy people on the planet.
Because my theory on this, and Bucky, you've heard me
say this before, is the male feminist is playing the
male feminist card because he has nothing else. He's actually
lying and he thinks you want to hear it, but
(33:24):
he doesn't actually mean it.
Speaker 2 (33:25):
Just trying to sleep with women through a swindle, which
is pretending that he cares about this stuff. Never trust
anyone who self describes as a male feminist.
Speaker 3 (33:33):
Every guy knows that, especially like the first date, What
are you into? I'm really into feminism?
Speaker 5 (33:38):
What?
Speaker 3 (33:38):
No, get up and leave. Trust me, you do not
want any more time with that guy. We'll take some
calls on this and we'll continue to break down everything
that happened over the weekend. In the meantime, I just

Update on the bracket challenge. It is incredibly insanely close.
This is according to Mark Stally. We are sitting right
now at a thirty eight and ten vote from me.
I start thirty eight to ten picks. There have been
(35:52):
forty eight games played so far. Thirty two first round,
sixteen second round, and I am third and ten correctly
got Colorado State over Memphis and BYU over Wisconsin into
the sweet sixteen. Buck thirty seven and eleven, you got
Drake over Missouri. One game separating us as we come
(36:17):
down the stretch here, you.
Speaker 2 (36:18):
Feel that, you feel that heat, clay, You feel that
right behind you, buddy, right on your heels. This is
why I study so hard on all NCAA athletic events.
Speaker 3 (36:28):
We are in a situation where we both picked the
Florida Gators. Buck's beloved wife, Carrie, graduate of the Gators,
and there is going to be a lot of drama
down the stretch. We'll get into that. I got some
cuts for you from Air Force One, recorded brilliantly on
my iPhone with President Trump. We'll play some of that
(36:49):
for you when we come back. I'll tell you about
flying on Air Force One. Let's have some fun here
on Monday.
Welcome everybody.
Speaker 2 (00:01):
Monday edition of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show
starts right now. Appreciate you all hanging out with us,
spending some time with us here. Much to dive into.
Clay back from a wonderful weekend of Trump and Nced
double a wrestling flying on Trump Force one, no less
air Force one. He will break down all of the
(00:22):
biggest takeaways from this and all that play. I assume
you had a fantastic time.
Speaker 3 (00:29):
I did, and just to be clear, I imagine that
I have set a record that probably may not have
been ever in existence. I landed in New York City
and Philadelphia and then returned to Washington, DC with President
Trump and I landed like midnight we did on Saturday,
(00:51):
turning into Sunday, checked into the hotel, woke up our early,
headed straight to the airport, and hopped on a Southwest
Airlines flight. How many pe people do you think have
gone Air Force one to Southwest Airlines? I would say
that is probably the extreme. You can't go in different
more extreme for aviation. So that was my arrive in
(01:14):
DC on Air Force one, leave Air Force one on
Southwest Airlines and anyway, we've got a lot to talk about.
We've got some good clips from President Trump. He wanted
to tell all of you he'll be on with us
soon and that he is proud of the success this
show is having and that he misses Rich So he
wanted me to tell all of you that and that
(01:38):
he is thankful. And I talked to you about it, Buck.
I mean, maybe my biggest takeaway is just how comfortable
he looks. He just has done this before. And I
think anytime you have a brand new job, whether it's
president of the United States or president of a company,
or heck, just a manager for the first time, you
don't really know what you don't know, and he knows
(02:00):
exactly how to do this job, and he just seems
very very comfortable in it. And I think you can
see that through the first sixty days how well things
have gone.
Speaker 2 (02:10):
So yeah, I saw some clips from the wrestling Championships.
Look like it was I've never seen an NCAA wrestling
tournament get so much attention, So Trump going there has
elevated elevated that sport in a way that I have
never seen before. We've also got updates on the border
and and immigration. I know Trump klay spoke to you
(02:32):
about that. Will play that clip in a little bit.
I do want to spend some time today on the
woke snow White disaster. Yeah, just because I think it
is part of the overall trend right now.
Speaker 1 (02:48):
I think it is.
Speaker 2 (02:49):
It's part of what we've seen, which is this woke
stuff now doesn't not only does not work anymore increasingly
they clown themselves when they try this. They are making
big mistakes in the marketplace. From what I saw, it
cost somewhere in the two hundred and fifty million dollars
plus range to make the movie. Yeh, you add marketing
into that. Marketing is usually one hundred percent of production budget,
(03:12):
as I understand it, not that I'm in the movie business,
but that's what I've read, and it has made. It
made forty million dollars in its opening weekend.
Speaker 1 (03:21):
That's what That's what we've been told.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
So I think there's something something to be discussed here
about all the decisions that were made. Snow White is
like a boss girl. Now. It's not about like you know,
happily ever after and finding true love and prince charming.
Speaker 1 (03:35):
She's a boss girl.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
Yeah, nobody wants to see this crap, and maybe they
should figure that out, or they won't, and things will
things will start to continue to fall apart from them.
Tim Walls is backpedaling on what he said about Tesla.
I remember Clay last week. We gave him a really
tough time about the Tesla situation, as I think anyone should.
When he says that he's rooting for Tesla stock to
(03:57):
go down dramatically. It's moronic for somebody in this country
to say that for a whole range of reasons, especially
for a Democrat who's supposed to care about climate change.
But I was gonna start with this Judge Boseburg. Remember
this guy, Clay, the one that wanted the planes to
turn around, has rejected the Trump administration's attempt to rescind
(04:18):
his restraining order, and he says that he thinks the
Venezuelans mark for deportation under the Enemy Alien Enemies Act
are likely to win. They're entitled to hearings, they're entitled
to due process. Democrats are now in the position of
going to the mat to defend who we believe are
(04:39):
violent gang members who are in the country. I think
this is going to continue to just pile up the
els the losses for all Democrats.
Speaker 3 (04:50):
Yeah, the big structural issue that is in play, and
we have talked about this a lot, but I don't
think most people really have understood exactly how this is designed.
All of these federal district court judges, and they're about
six hundred of them, roughly half of them are left
(05:10):
wing appointees, and they have decided that they are going
to be the front line's opposition to allowing any sort
of success for the Trump administration. And this is just
designed to be roadblocks against the Trump train. And they
know this is what we told you would happen. But
(05:33):
it's why the Trump team is moving so fast. They
know that if they can get a part of Congress back, right,
if they can win the House, because they're not going
to take the Senate back, once they get to the
summer of twenty twenty six, everything bogs down. So really
Trump has now in order to get his agenda underway,
(05:53):
about a year and we hope that he is going
to be able to retain the House and that certainly
he's going to have the Senate to work for, but
really they know he's a one term president now and
he's got to get a ton done in the first
eighteen months, and they're basically decided the best way to
keep that from happening is to throw themselves athwart his agenda.
Speaker 1 (06:16):
This is the judges.
Speaker 3 (06:17):
What should happen is the Supreme Court should step in
rather quickly on some of these things and say this
is clearly within the province of the president's powers. I
was reading in the Wall Street Journal this morning a
well articulated argument about how if the president doesn't have
the ability to deport violent felons who are not citizens,
(06:43):
what in the world does he have the ability to
do That seems buck to me the very foundation of
the president's powers.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
Yes, well, this is why I think this judge is
likely to be, you know, be found wrong on this.
I think he will be overturned. I think that there's
no chance that he is going to get his questions say,
no chance, it's a low chance he's going to end
up getting his way in this. But the problem, and
this is what keeps coming up again and again, is
that the slow down and the like I always say,
(07:14):
the process is the punishment. The ability to make this
stuff all have to go to court over and over
again is just meant to prevent Trump from implementing the
agenda with the clear election win and the I think
decisive momentum he has politically after let's just be honest,
Democrat misrule and complete and utter failure on a whole
(07:40):
range of issues. So they're going to try to slow
everything down, and I think that on the side of
things that we see right now, what they're doing is
just intended to be more of the same we saw
this in twenty sixteen, So I Clay, I am hopeful
that there will be some way that the Supreme Court
is to weigh in here and stop them from continuing
(08:03):
to just use this as the sabotage mechanism of the
Trump administration. But it's frustrating to watch this because think
about this, the federal judges. I keep pointing this out
to people because I think it's so important. People were
held for over a year. Remember the whole thing about
a speedy trial in this country. People were held for
over a years in many cases in solitary who were
(08:23):
US citizens, and some of them were entirely non violent
j six individuals, and the entire legal apparatus, for the
most part, was unwilling to say anything about due process
or presumption of innocence. It was they were insurrectionists. Now
we've got presumably members of Trenda Arragua who are in
(08:44):
the country illegally, who are part of a horrifically violent
and heinous gang, and the Democrats are doing everything they
can to make sure it's as hard as possible so
to get them to leave the country, to kick them
out of the country. And people are going to suffer
as a result of this stuff because the longer these
gang members or gang members who are here illegally in
(09:05):
general stand the country, the more murders and rapes and
assaults and armed robberies and all of that will occur.
And they just the Democrats just don't care because Trump
is doing it, so it must be bad.
Speaker 3 (09:15):
Yeah, And it used to be a very rare occurrence
for a federal district court judge to try to enjoin
nationally an issue because there was a question about whether
they had the ability to do it, and you would
tend to have judges on a federal district court level
who would focus on their particular region. This is a
(09:38):
dispute that is taking place, Oh, I don't know, in
the in the Southern District of New York and so
we're going to focus on exactly what's going on there,
and we're not going to make this action apply one
judge's opinion apply nationwide. Now, there seems to be a
very aggressive posture from the judiciary where they want to
(10:01):
have their ruling apply nationwide. And here's the other thing
that is worth contemplating. This is how these judges think
they're going to get.
Speaker 1 (10:11):
Promotions.
Speaker 3 (10:12):
If you're the federal district court judge who stands up
to Donald Trump the next time that there are Democrats
in a position of power controlling the White House, and
it will happen again. They will elevate these judges, and
they will try to get them on the circuit court level,
or maybe you even bump yourself all the way up
to the front of the line to become a Supreme
(10:35):
Court justice. It's not just that they see themselves as
throwing themselves athwart the Trump administration and they want to
stay in these jobs. It's how they see their ability
to elevate themselves. These judges are now the resistance two
point zero Democrat party politics has collapsed, The legacy media
(10:56):
buy and large has collapsed. What is left is I
think quite clearly the opposition coming from the federal district
court judges, and the Supreme Court should step in buck
because at least it takes five typically Supreme Court justices
to agree to have a law enjoining the president of
the United States. Right now we have six hundred individual
(11:18):
judges who believe it's within their authority to stop the
president from doing something.
Speaker 2 (11:24):
So we'll continue to watch this closely because it's obviously
very important that Trump sees this through and continues on this.
The good news is the I think people are recognizing
that Trump knows what he's doing with the economy, or
more people are seeing this. There are one or two
off weeks in the stock market is utterly meaningless.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
In the grand scheme of things.
Speaker 2 (11:47):
The border security situation is much better than I even
anticipated it could be at this point, with a ninety
five percent reduction in illegal crossings. You know, we are
two months into this administration and there are already substantial
wins to point to, and they are continuing to just
keep it all rolling. So they're absolutely keeping the promises.
(12:09):
They're doing what they said. Trump's doing what he said
he would do. Elon and Doze is forcing a necessary
conversation not just for less wasteful and more efficient government,
but saving us from financial oblivion as a nation. I
think that's a pretty big deal, and it's just so
interesting for me, I think, to see how as this
(12:30):
plays out, there are more and more ways, more and
more areas you can point here where you say we
are trying to fix things, or our side is trying
to get things done that matter and that are important,
and the Democrats are just petty and spiteful and completely
rudderless other than trying to sabotage Trump. Really, they exist.
(12:51):
The Democrat Party exists right now, not for ideas, not
for solutions, but to come up with ways to make
sure that Trump can't get things done, even including things
that any rational person should want to happen. And I
think this is also why the Tesla situation plays the
way that it does play. The people that are so
scared about climate change hate Tesla now, they're just crazy.
(13:13):
They just hate whatever our side is trying to do.
Speaker 1 (13:15):
That's totally right.
Speaker 3 (13:16):
We'll break that down for you, and more lots of
good stuff coming your way. Want to tell you, though,
something not going well. What Israel is facing right now
on Saturday has Bull of Phile fired rockets into Matula
in northern Israel. We toured there last December with the
International Fellowship of Christians and Jews. Thankfully, the IDF was
able to intercept those missiles, but on Sunday renewed fighting
(13:40):
with Hamas in the south in Gaza. The IFCJ has
continued to support the people of Israel life saving security essentials.
I saw it all myself. Your gift to this nonprofit
organization today will help save lives by providing bomb shelters,
armored security vehicles, ambulances, firefighting equipment, flack jackets, bulletproof best
(14:00):
so much more. Your generous donation today will help ensure
the people of Israel are safe and secure in the
days to come. Give a gift to bless Israel and
her people by visiting SUPPORTIFCJ dot org. That's one word,
SUPPORTIFCJ dot org. You can also call eight eight eight

Speaker 1 (14:30):
You ain't imagining it. The world has gone insane. We
claim your sanity with clay and fun.
Speaker 3 (14:37):
Find them on the free iHeartRadio app or wherever you
get your podcasts. Welcome back in Clay Travis buck Sexton Show.
Appreciate all of you hanging out with us. We are
rolling through the Monday edition of the program. A lot
going on. Let's let me play this because I think
it's a pretty uh, pretty funny buck. I asked President
(15:00):
as the fallout from Tim Walls uh, saying that he
would be able to beat up most Trump supporters about that.
But Walls then walked back the fact that he's rooting
against Tesla by saying, oh, that I was just joking
and people didn't understand. Here's cut eighteen. Walls backtracking in
(15:22):
a hurry.
Speaker 4 (15:23):
This guy bugs me in a way that is probably
unhealthy and so but but I have to be careful
about being a smart ass. I was making a joke.
These people have no sense of humor. They are the
most literal people, most literal people. But my point was
they're all mad and I, you know, said something I
didn't you know, probably shouldn't have about a company.
Speaker 1 (15:47):
He has agreed. I agree, So I make the case.
Speaker 4 (15:53):
I make the case they're all but hurt about the
Tesla thing, but they.
Speaker 1 (15:58):
Don't care the distress.
Speaker 4 (16:00):
I bet they have shown to employees at the Minneapolis
VA who care for our veterans can acquire them.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
They don't care.
Speaker 3 (16:07):
Okay this first of all, what happened, Buck, was suddenly Walls,
who is a moron, recognize that the Minnesota pension fund
has a million shairs of Tesla stock. And right now,
by the way, Tesla stock is surging. It is a
good day for the stock market. And again everybody wants
(16:28):
to focus on the price up nearly ten percent. It's
up twenty three dollars a share. So I think this
clip is going to come back. We should probably talk
about it a little bit more because I do think
it's emblematic of how lost Democrats are, Buck, but that
you would be cheering against the number one American car
company in the world, the first successful one to be
(16:48):
built in one hundred years. Is I think the broken
brain syndrome that you were just talking about, well, I
think that Democrats are the party of spite. Now they're
just spiteful, They're angry. They were humiliated. You have to
remember that too. It was the media predominantly, but the
Democrat Party overall was humiliated in this last election. They
(17:10):
had to abandon their dementia puppet Joe Biden. They had
to pretend that Kamala wasn't the worst candidate than any
of us have ever seen in a presidential election representing
a party in our lifetime. And then they had to
tell their base, Oh, yeah, Trump's not going to prison.
He's going to be president again with a mandate, with
a all swing state victory under his belt, and a
(17:32):
Republican majority in the House, in the Senate. You know,
they're just they're just bitter.
Speaker 1 (17:36):
Man.
Speaker 2 (17:36):
I think there's a there's a period here where the
Democrats are finding themselves just trying to work through this
intense resentment of reality that is really what they have
become as a party. So yeah, it's rough for them,
But don't worry. Trump's still going forward with good stuff.

(19:03):
big guy, as one does this past weekend. He was
flying around on Air Force one and have time with
the leader free World.
Speaker 1 (19:13):
And I think this is the first time. Maybe first time.
Speaker 2 (19:17):
Maybe I can think of where the President of the
United States is truly just the most famous person on
the planet. I think Donald Trump is more famous and
recognizable than any other human being. You know, there are
usually some sports stars back in the day would have
been I think Michael Jordan Ronaldo the soccer player.
Speaker 1 (19:34):
If you're just.
Speaker 2 (19:35):
Pure recognizable mass see, yes, who's met near where you
are now? Like, I mean, yes, these are I think
Trump is the most famous person on the planet as
well as being the president, which is pretty remarkable thing.
Karen and I have started watching you know, I never
watched the original Apprentice.
Speaker 1 (19:55):
I just never. I didn't watch it. I don't know.
I guess I was in college.
Speaker 2 (20:00):
And you go back and watch it now, and you know,
he's quite a showman.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
It's pretty fine. I watched it. It was a really
good show the first couple of show years. Yeah. But
the but I mean, he carries the show, that's the thing.
It's not.
Speaker 2 (20:11):
It's not like American Idol where you can have a
bunch of interchangeable judges.
Speaker 1 (20:15):
He is the show.
Speaker 2 (20:17):
Yes, Like without him, there is no show, you know,
that's the thing. I mean, it's well produced, and everything else.
Obviously it was super successful. But okay, back to uh,
I just thought that's interesting. Now they've got it. I
think it's on Amazon now. But Clay asked Trump, that's
why we're thinking about Trump right now. About the incident
where Tim Walls is saying he thinks he could kick
(20:38):
people's asses or whatever. And this is how he responded.
This is cut six.
Speaker 1 (20:44):
You saw Tim Walls.
Speaker 5 (20:45):
I know you've talked about Tim Walls saying he could
beat up Trump supporters. You see Kaitlyn Jenner said that
that that she that she thought she would be able
to take him. Who would you take in a battle,
Kaitlyn Jenner Tim Walls?
Speaker 1 (21:00):
I also have you know Kane?
Speaker 6 (21:03):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (21:03):
How about Kane? Oh?
Speaker 5 (21:04):
Glynn is an awesome guy. He challenged him. I put
up ten grand for that too, and the challenges. I
don't think Tim Walls is responding.
Speaker 1 (21:12):
Second, he's like seven feet down the biggest. He's an
awesome guy. He's a great guy too. He's a mayor
of a town and he's all that good that's going.
Speaker 3 (21:22):
Jacob's mayor of Knoxville. I think we've had him on
the show before. Former w w E wrestler and by
the way, that was on Air Force one. So inevitably
there's gonna be audio. Uh, we'll play a couple of
the cuts and audio guy or gal. It's going to
be like, why isn't the audio bet was not a
formal studio, it's literally sitting on Air Force sound like
(21:44):
you I was the difference in the vocal is really pronounced?
Speaker 1 (21:48):
Was that with your iPhone? Was with an iPhone?
Speaker 3 (21:51):
Ah. That's why they wanted to They wanted to have
and I'm going to write about it at out Kick.
They wanted written articles. They didn't want to necessarily. Look,
this is part of the new media initiative, and so Buck,
you're gonna be up at some point, we're going to
be up. They're trying to do a good job. And
I think this is important of reaching out to new
audience as opposed to consistently giving the associated press access
(22:16):
or giving access to frankly, media outlets that don't actually
produce very substantial audiences anymore. They saw in the election
that reaching out to new audiences was actually far more effective,
frankly than sitting down sometimes with CBS or NBC or ABC,
who you know is going to be unfair and I
(22:37):
was reading actually that Brett Bayer in his serious newscast
on Fox News is often now beating ABC, NBC, CBS.
And there's still lots of people who watch those old
legacy media outlets, but their audience is collapsing in many ways.
And so this is the way the media under Trump,
Caroline Levitt's team is trying to reach out to new audience.
Speaker 2 (23:01):
Yes, we have been talking for a long time about
how Democrat corporate media has been really running on you know,
the legacy aspect of it and the pace one. It's
running on fume fuge. It's running on fumes. And now
this is now things have actually happened. It's like bankruptcy
comes slowly, then suddenly the collapse of the Democrat media
(23:25):
has come slowly, slowly, then suddenly We've seen this coming
for a long time.
Speaker 1 (23:29):
But it was very clear.
Speaker 2 (23:31):
I think that if if what happened did happen, which
is they all said Donald Trump's going to go to prison,
Democrats are getting another four years, and they go all
in on that, and then.
Speaker 1 (23:41):
It doesn't happen.
Speaker 2 (23:43):
Like I've been saying, Clay, it's not just that they
have lost all credibility with the center and then to
the right of the country. They really left their own
side looking foolish and high and dry. And that's the
thing that you get. You can't make your audience feel
like idiots in the media business and get away with it,
right and Democrats watch MSNBC and believe all that nonsense.
(24:03):
They look like fools now. And that's the part of
it that I think is really cause. And see ann
same thing causing the business model to collapse.
Speaker 3 (24:11):
And Tim Wall's coming out that cut that we played
for you where he said, oh I was joking. He
wasn't joking. I mean when you specifically say I've got
the stock app and I root against emon musk company Tesla,
that is a direct attack. And the stock price has
gone up fifty dollars since Tim Walls attacked the company,
(24:34):
So that is not insubstantial. If you just bought on
the day that Tim Walls was bragging about how Tesla
was doing a poor job, then you would have done well.
Speaker 1 (24:43):
But finally the media.
Speaker 3 (24:44):
Did its job there and they pointed out they said,
wait a minute, Minnesota's pension funds, of which all of
the retirees from state government that are invested in, has
millions of shares of Tesla stock, as you could well
predict if you understood basic market economics at all, because
it's one of the biggest companies in the world, and
(25:06):
certainly American companies are going to be strongly invested in
by American pension funds. So Walls is actually rooting against
his own retirees when he's bragging about the company not
doing well and not wanting it to succeed.
Speaker 1 (25:18):
Well.
Speaker 2 (25:18):
This is what we talked about last week, pointing out
that to root against Tesla is really to root against
the American economy, not just because it's an all American
company truly. I mean everything is made here, designed here,
built here. It's all made here in America. I think
the primary factories in the Austin, Texas area, right, that's
the the.
Speaker 1 (25:38):
I think they've got them all over.
Speaker 3 (25:40):
I know their primary headquarters is now in Austin, but
they've got They've done a good job.
Speaker 2 (25:44):
Their biggest factory, yeah, I mean their biggest factory. I
think it's the one they like, the megafactory they had
built it off. Anyway, point is, it's all here in America.
And there are a number of companies that have been
creating so much wealth that it actually props up much
of the stock market, which means means you need this
stuff in order to meet pension obligations. So this is
(26:06):
why it's very important people talk about the markets. They
need to understand it's not just you know, because the
way Democrats speak about it isn't really so funny. Most
hedge fund managers vote Democrat, but Democrats speak of hedge
fund managers or Wall Street quote unquote with disdain, even
though it's their team primarily. But beyond that, if you work,
if you're on a city pension plan anywhere in the country,
(26:27):
they're not going to be able to meet the obligations
to you and your family as a cop, as a firefighter,
as a teacher. If you know, Facebook, Amazon, Netflix, Google, Tesla,
if these companies don't do well, So to root against them, yes,
is to root for a recession essentially, or to you know,
to root in the case of Tesla, for one of
(26:50):
the most important American companies to be doing poorly.
Speaker 1 (26:53):
I mean it would be like, you.
Speaker 2 (26:54):
Know, seventy years ago, rooting against general motors, like what
are you doing, which is why Tim Wallas has now
walked it back.
Speaker 3 (27:01):
It also, I think it just speaks to how many
morons there are at the top of the Democrat Party.
I was reading Axios this morning, which I like to do.
I get their free am distillation of what the news
is out there, and they had a lot of Democrats saying,
this is the worst the Democrat Party position they've been
(27:23):
in in fifty years. They don't really know what in
the world to do and how to handle the situation
that they are in. There is a full fledged panic
that is quietly building inside of the Democrat Party because
there's a great stat out there, Buck, eighteen year olds,
that is the first time you're voting, and maybe there
(27:44):
are some of you out there listening to this on podcast,
eighteen year olds, I'd love to hear from you, the
young first time voters. They have broken more conservative than
seventy five year old voters. Let me repeat that, eighteen
year bite, sorry, eighteen year old boys. Eighteen year old
boys voted more conservative in this election. As the data
(28:06):
is continuing to come out than seventy five year old
men did. They've never seen anything like this historically, and
I think there is a panic setting. And I talked
about this, Buck because my fifteen year old. And that's
still kind of crazy to me that I'm going to
have two voters that are my kids in the twenty
twenty eight election. My fifteen year old said, and he's right,
(28:30):
based on everything I see around him, he said, Dad,
for when the first time I can vote, I can't
wait to vote Republican in twenty twenty eight. And my
seventeen year old said the same thing. They haven't been
able to vote yet, and all of their friends this
next like five to six years. I think you have
to call it kind of the COVID generation. Young men,
(28:52):
young boys now they are voting. I mean, isn't that
a crazy stat I think a lot of you out
there who are in this age rage like you're beaming
if you're listening to us. It's not getting talked about
a lot, but it's starting to circulate. Eighteen year old
boys voted more conservatively than seventy five year old men.
That is what never happened. I don't think in the
(29:14):
history of the United States elections, certainly not anybody's lives
right now.
Speaker 2 (29:18):
I think that I think that COVID played a large
role in their formative years. They're thinking the same way
you know, nine to eleven played a huge role in
people that are that are play your age, my I know,
in all of our lives, but yes, in terms of
life path, A lot of us, how many of you
listening right now joined the military because of nine to
eleven and your sense of patriotism and that we have enemies,
(29:41):
and nine to eleven was formative, particularly formative for people
who were military age men and women. Okay, that's just
what we saw the nine to eleven generation. I think
there's also now a COVID generation. It's very different, but
I think it has a similar degree of impact on
psychology and sense of the way we interact with our
(30:03):
government and whether we are citizens or subjects. Because they
were lied to about all this stuff. I mean, the
New York Times is now coming out and saying the
COVID lab leak came from the Wuhan thing of Wuhan
Institute of Virology. Probably now they're five years late on
this one. But the point is they were lied to.
Their lives were disrupted, and they were their interests and
(30:26):
needs were cast aside for hysterical, low testosterone democrat men
and who were older. And they realized this and they're
not forgiving it, and they shouldn't. And also the anti
masculinity stuff that they get subjected to is completely beyond
the pale they've seen that it's crazier with them than
(30:46):
it has ever been before You and I grew up.
Speaker 3 (30:49):
And this is what I'm writing about in the new
book that I'm working on. You and I grew up
buck roughly in an arrow when this girl power, girl
boss thing rose. But it wasn't in eighties in the
nineteen nineties like I wasn't, and you weren't constantly steeped
in the idea that boys are awful. Every little kid
growing up today who is eleven, twelve, thirteen years old
(31:12):
and a little bit older and a little bit younger
if they're a boy, and a lot of you out
there are boy moms, and you experience this too, and
you look around and you're you don't have to tear
boys down to give girls equal opportunity. And I think
we moved from hey, girls can do anything and boys
can do anything, and that's something to celebrate to boys
(31:34):
are a problem and we have to tear down boys
to elevate girls.
Speaker 2 (31:38):
I completely agree with that, but I would also add
girls actually can't do anything. Girls can't girls can't have
a child in their sixties, can't do it. You know
that's actually reality. You can't. Biology really exist? Yes, biology exists.
A woman is not going to pass Navy seal training
an actual biological female. Like that's not going to happen,
even though they were hoping that it would, you know all.
(32:00):
You know, so yeah, going to dominate the NBA, right,
like that is not going to happen. But you know,
this is why I think anybody, this is why the
gender thing has mattered so much because to the gender,
to the generation that has come up with the most
radicalized gender ideology being imposed on them, they realize these
(32:21):
people are nuts. Yeah, they're actually deranged. This is a
deranged philosophy. It is not based in reality. And whether
you're you know, thirteen or thirty, you should be able
to see that. And I think that a lot of
teenagers now who are just able to vote, are saying, yeah, no,
I know what's going on here.
Speaker 3 (32:39):
I think also a lot of women are rejecting the
idea that men should be more feminine. I think a
lot of you out there don't like that. You know,
we created this world where women should be more masculine
and men should be more feminine. And I think, in particular,
a lot of women out there like I don't want
to date a femine first of all, lots of men. Why, Like,
(33:02):
if you're a woman and you sit down across the
table from the guy and he says like, I'm a
huge feminist, you should just stand up and leave because
I think he's lying to you. And male feminists are
I think probably the least trustworthy people on the planet.
Because my theory on this, and Bucky, you've heard me
say this before, is the male feminist is playing the
male feminist card because he has nothing else. He's actually
lying and he thinks you want to hear it, but
(33:24):
he doesn't actually mean it.
Speaker 2 (33:25):
Just trying to sleep with women through a swindle, which
is pretending that he cares about this stuff. Never trust
anyone who self describes as a male feminist.
Speaker 3 (33:33):
Every guy knows that, especially like the first date, What
are you into? I'm really into feminism?
Speaker 5 (33:38):
What?
Speaker 3 (33:38):
No, get up and leave. Trust me, you do not
want any more time with that guy. We'll take some
calls on this and we'll continue to break down everything
that happened over the weekend. In the meantime, I just
