Speaker 1 (00:00):
Buddy Dan Sneill back with his politics and leadership expert,
(00:02):
no doubt about that, and craziness happening with what's happening
in DC now, Dan, welcome in. Thanks for being here, you.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
Bet, Jake, always great to be with you and your
Alabama listeners.
Speaker 1 (00:12):
So this former Biden chief of staff Ron Klain, revealed
a House investigators that he was approached by Hillary Clinton
with these concerns about Biden's politically viable state of mind
in both twenty twenty three and twenty twenty four. So
so many people were hiding this. I think we were
all certainly aware that he was not running the shop.
(00:34):
I'm assuming Obama and his crew ran everything there with
some White House insiders and they made decisions for him.
Jill Biden, I would think, would be pretty complicit in
helping them as well as they propped him up like
a weekend at Bernie's. So the question I have about
all this is, Okay, so now we're starting to find
(00:55):
out people are coming forward. You know, the jig is
up with the Democrats and the else Now we can
talk about it. And oh yeah, by the way, I
knew this, and I knew that, and we really couldn't
say anything. What's going to be the outcome down the road, consequences, accountability,
legislation to change the cognitive skill law or whatever. Amendment
(01:16):
twenty five is, Where are we going with all this?
Speaker 2 (01:19):
Yeah, those are all great questions JT. And Yeah. In
this case, it's the classic what did they know and
when did they know it? It goes back to the
Watergate era whoever invented that quote, and it was clear
to the American people, the people of Alabama, Kansas, wherever
they are, that President Biden was struggling in his later
(01:41):
days of his term. And certainly it's important that the
House Oversight Committee bring this up and discuss it. And
as you noted, it might be good as a country
to take a look at, Hey, should there be some
kind of consideration for a cognitive exam or least candidates
(02:02):
like they have to do with their financial disclosers right,
that they also take a test and disclose where they're at.
Because it was certainly evident to everyone that President Biden
was struggling.
Speaker 1 (02:11):
Oh my gosh, you couldn't find his way off of stage,
let alone talk about serious matters around the world. I mean,
could you imagine this is the guy that if in
fact we do engage in conflicts, and we did, certainly
that he's at the helm of running and making decisions
for the United States of America. I mean, it's a
national security risk to have this guy in the White House.
(02:31):
So when you talk about people that close to him,
like the former Chief of Staff ron Klain, I mean,
isn't he obligated to the American people to at least
bring it up?
Speaker 2 (02:42):
I think that could be another part of that. There
could be some form of legislation that, yes, there are
going to be accountability if you're in a position around
the president and you don't report information like probably ron
Klain had or Aaron Jeed Breer, the residential press secretary,
(03:04):
or even the president's doctor who refused to testify and
claim the fifth that if you don't do that, then
you can be held accountable legally because you nailed it.
If we got into a crisis with a war or
an attack, to not be able to steadily steer the
ship would be a horrible thing for the country.
Speaker 1 (03:24):
Do you believe Obama was a part of running the ship?
Speaker 2 (03:27):
Well, certainly President Obama wields a mighty acts in either
cutting people out or bringing people in, and he certainly
is right now. The Democratic Party Party is somewhat lost.
They're like a ship at sea and they're looking for
a lighthouse because they're messaging. The American people has rejected
(03:47):
some of the old policies for sure, and President Trump's
doing a great job of steering the ship back the
more conservative policies that most of the country wants, and
Obama certainly has an impact on everything that happens. It's
going to be in an interesting next couple of years
to see who's going to emerge as this voice of
(04:09):
the new Democratic Party. Certainly got to be more of
a moderate or they will lose mightily.
Speaker 1 (04:15):
Oh yeah, they're imploding right before our very eyes and
self destructing. There's no doubt about. I don't know if
you saw the latest poll that just came out, that's
sixty three percent of Democrats and people in the country
look down on the Democratic Party. Don't approve of what
they're doing. They don't like it. It's getting negative negative,
the worst in the decade. You know, where the American
(04:37):
people stand with the Democrats right now, and they're not
doing anything to really change it. In fact, they're doubling
down and going quite the opposite direction, you know, instead
of coming towards the center, trying to understand what Americans
are really about and listening. They want to tell people,
here's what you should say, here's what you should think,
here's what you should do, here's how you should feel.
And this guy that's run for New York Mayor's office
(04:58):
in New York City. Wow, I mean there's a fine
example of it that people in these districts you're all
about it too.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
Yeah, that's just shocking what's going on in New York.
I can't imagine. You know, you're in Alabama, I'm in Kansas,
and certainly we think a lot differently than the people
of New York City. And that's just a glaring example
of a city that's gone awry. As a city councilman
for five terms, ten years, and you got it, you
really have. When you're dealing with budgets and leadership, you
(05:28):
really have to think a lot differently than that individuals running.
I don't think he has a chance to win, but yeah,
the country is really it's interesting. We're young, you know.
Next year, two hundred and fifty years is our birthday,
and we still are a young nation comparatively, and we're
going through we're learning how to grow up here, and
so I hope that we can, whether it's through legislation
(05:50):
or just common sense of the American people, return to
the things that have made us strong and mighty, you know, say,
forty fifty years ago.
Speaker 1 (05:58):
Well, I think we're on the right track with this
current administration, that's for sure. Well, Dane, always good to
catch up with you, buddy.
