The guys started the show hilariously by giving us a play on what happened with Ron DeSantis' election announcement on Twitter and how the technical aspect was a disaster. Thankfully, DeSantis went on Fox with Trey Gowdy shortly after and redeemed himself. However, Joe has some great advice for him that he really should take.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
We're under the tutelage of our general manager. I had
a similar I'm sorry, I can't can you hear Joe?

Speaker 2 (00:06):
Hi? Check you one? Check you can check?

Speaker 3 (00:10):
Governor?

Speaker 2 (00:11):
Can you hear I'm sorry talking? Can you hear me?
I'm should we announce my co hostedness? Should we start over?

Speaker 3 (00:18):
Hi?

Speaker 2 (00:19):
I'm joking, I'm running what you should probably start. I
think it's crashing. What hell, it's not working, Michael, I'd
like to announce my co hostedness. Jeez oh boy, zip zoo.

Speaker 1 (00:41):
I think the obvious is this. If you can't run
a Twitter announcement, how can you run the biggest country
on that?

Speaker 2 (00:47):
Wow? That was some great a stupid right there. Thank you,
well done. I say I respect quality no matter whether
it's bagpipe playing or pole vaulting or stupid. And that
was some fine stupid. Okay, if you don't know what
we're talking about, we will play you some of the
DeSantis campaign launch on Twitter spaces, which was a bit

(01:12):
of a cluster blank and buy a bit of I
mean a complete Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:15):
It couldn't have really gone any worse, only if he
had accidentally liked that baseball announcer dropped an n bomb.
Could it have been worse than it was? I mean,
it just it couldn't have gone any worse.

Speaker 2 (01:25):
On the other hand, I haven't been this mad since
I killed those three hobos. Let me know when my
MIC's on again. Right.

Speaker 1 (01:32):
On the other hand, I honestly, it was so hard
when you're in the business of audio listening to it,
I was like, God, I gotta get somebody on the phone.
They don't know that they can't hear each other, and
they're talking to this.

Speaker 2 (01:46):
It was making me so uncomfortable. Does this thing work?
All right? Let's begin then officially, according to FCC rules
of RAGS.

Speaker 3 (01:53):
At Mark's fine, we will reconstitutionalize the executive branch and we'll.

Speaker 4 (02:06):
Bring the administrative state to heal. Now, you can't do
any of that if you don't win, and I'm sure,
because you're a good business man, you'll end up.

Speaker 1 (02:17):
Line is, you had to put your money where your
mouth is.

Speaker 2 (02:20):
Oh boy.

Speaker 1 (02:22):
And that was about twenty minutes after it was supposed
to start, So if you look, I didn't join it live.
I grabbed the YouTube. But the YouTube I had to
keep fast forwarding and fast forwarding and fast forwarding through
twenty minutes of silence before that started, So if you
joined it live, you waited a really long time. So
when Desants freed himself from the unsuccessful Twitter experiment, he

(02:44):
went across the street to Fox News Tonight with Trey Goudi,
who I think is absolutely terrific. Let's start with the
Desant's message clip fifty one.

Speaker 4 (02:52):
Michael, Ultimately, it's about the future of our country, Tray,
I'm running to lead a great American comeback. We know
the country's on the wrong track. We see it with
our eyes, we feel it in our bones. We see
the border being overrun, we see crime infesting the cities,
we see the federal government making it more difficult for
families to make ends meet. And we have a president

(03:14):
who is a listless vessel, not energetic, and not dealing
with the key challenges that are facing our country. But
it does not have to be this way. Our decline
as a country is not inevitable. It is a choice,
and I think we can choose a better.

Speaker 1 (03:28):
Pathway an LV A listless vessel.

Speaker 2 (03:32):
Yeah, that's a little fancy, it islatic. In this next clip,
he's one hundred percent right about the woke stuff and
the critical theory crap. That's not based in reality, but
it might be a little subtle though. That's next clip.

Speaker 4 (03:49):
What I will do is help restore normalcy to our communities,
integrity to our institutions, and sanity to our society. Truth
needs to be the foundation of everything we do, and
common sense can no longer be an uncommon virtue. We
proved it could be done in Florida. We chose facts
over fear when it wasn't popular. We chose education over indoctrination.

(04:13):
And we've chosen law and order over rioting and disorder.
If we can do it there, we can do it
for the country.

Speaker 2 (04:19):
Let's do one more than the critique, Michael, and the.

Speaker 4 (04:22):
Pledge I'll make for people is simply this, we need
to win again. As Republicans. We got to dispense with
this culture of losing. And if you nominate me, I
pledge to you that on January twenty, at twenty twenty five,
at high noon, that I'll be the guy on the
west side of the Capitol with the left hand on
the Bible and the right hand in the air, taking
the oath of office as the forty seventh President of

(04:44):
the United States. No more excuses. We've got to get
this one done.

Speaker 2 (04:48):
So I loved everything he said. Policy wise, I agree
with almost everything he says. There are a couple of
things I don't like, but you know, we'll have plenty
of time to talk about that. Here's his problem. He
does not have the common touch. He does not quite
reach the non news junkie. I mean when he said

(05:10):
we chose facts over fear when that was unpopular. Okay,
I know he's talking about COVID policies. He tried to
keep the schools open. He let the businesses continue to
keep a living, to make a living. Say that, don't
make us decode it. I'm a news junkie in the
political science guy. Don't make people decode. We chose facts

(05:33):
over fear. Say what you mean? He's just he's very,
very smart. And you know the famous story where who
was it he was talking about Jay Leno? Was it
Dennis Miller talking about Jay Leno on the Tonight Show?
Jay Leno is a genius stand up guy, but he
was just kind of a ABC one two three comedian
on the Tonight Show. And I think it was Dennis,

(05:55):
wasn't it who said, Yeah, Jane knows just how bad
he has to be to succeed in that job. Well,
Ron DeSantis, I hate the term dumb it down, and
I'm not gonna use that term. He needs to better
relate to where his audience is and fashion his message
to reach his audience.

Speaker 1 (06:15):
Yeah, and particularly in the modern world, listless vessel is
never gonna be as good a tired old man as
Tag is crooked Joe from Trump.

Speaker 2 (06:29):
And see and this is a crazy thing to say,
would hold a guy back, but he came from very
humble beginnings Rondosantis. He went to school, he enrolled in
the Navy, He served with the honor in the Navy
and then the Naval Reserve until after he was governor.
By the way, that overlapped. And he's an attorney. He is,
you've seen him in his dress whites, probably marrying his

(06:51):
beautiful wife and they have a couple of beautiful children.
He still has the formality of a naval officer.

Speaker 1 (07:00):
Yeah, you're right. I think you're right.

Speaker 2 (07:01):
I mean, I picture my brother, who I love and
respect very very much, as a naval officer, and if
he were to, like try to say something negative about
somebody in public, it would be very measured and honorable
and restraint. It would be polite. Yeah, I'm not sure
you can win the Republican nomination that way.
