American politics is professional wrestling.
Well, 60s or 70s, NWA to be specific, but it works something like this.
How do you portray your brand?
How do you portray your image?
Now right now I make reference to the fact of Maureen Dowd from the New York Times is talking about the onslaught.
Of what appears to be either this cavalcade and avalanche or stampede of crazy right-wing Marjorie Taylor Greene's.
And what's going to happen?
Let me just stop right there.
This is what I love so much about this.
Why?
Maureen Dowd is playing to her crowd.
We know this.
We know what you feel.
I got it.
I understand it.
She's crazy.
Bobert with the guns.
They're crazy.
Everybody's crazy.
I got it.
The right folks do it as well.
Oh, this one's crazy.
AOC is crazy.
AOC is not crazy.
AOC is not crazy at all.
Step back.
I'm going to try to teach you something, and let's see if you can do this.
I doubt it.
But I want you to take your particular instincts, Your likes and dislikes and remove them.
Remove them from the equation.
Understand what is at stake.
Listen to me as I say this for the millionth time.
There are three groups of people you gotta care about.
The people that are gonna vote for you, no matter what.
If you're...
Trump, it's the Republicans.
There might be a couple of detractors here and there.
That's fine.
If you're the left, they're not going to vote for Trump.
So you got it.
So the people are going to vote with you, people are going to vote against you.
And then in the middle, in the middle, is this, well, I'm kind of an independent.
Well, I'm not really sure.
Well, I'm not.
Let me see.
Let me see.
Let me see how I can do this.
Let me see.
Let me listen to this one.
That's the one I want to get, too.
That's the one I want to get.
Now, what Marjorie Taylor Greene does, and AOC does, by the way, they are the antithesis, not the antithesis, I should say this, they're the zysigy, the chiral opposites, they're the negatives, so to speak, of each other.
They're perfect.
Perfect in this representation.
The thing that's the most important about these two is what they represent in the calculus of the election.
Now, what would you do?
Maureen Dowd, you take Marjorie Taylor Greene, who, by the way, has more raw talent and more rough edges than you can imagine.
AOC, same thing.
Which one would you like me to work with?
Doesn't matter.
It's the lawyer in me.
I'll take AOC.
I'll take MTG.
It doesn't matter.
Which one would you like?
Which one?
How do I phrase this?
What do they mean?
I'm going to stick with MTG now for the moment.
We'll talk about AOC some other time.
Because she is...
If the Republicans were smart...
They would be able to play this and parlay this perfectly, but they're not when it comes to this.
Because their thing is, they want to go on Fox News and want to keep preaching to the choir.
Dave Boebert, I guess I'm pronouncing her name correctly, lose that gun thing.
Listen, Annie Oakley, that may play at CPAC, but the rest of the country isn't buying it.
You always have to think about these people.
That are not of your core.
The ones who are saying, you know what, I never thought about this.
Now what Marjorie Taylor Greene in particular is about is very, very simple.
She's got to ask herself a question.
Do you want to be a Republican stronghold?
Is that what you want to do?
Or do you want to go to the top?
Could she be president?
Not at this rate.
No way.
No way.
Same thing for AOC.
No, no, no.
I forget about the age.
I'm talking about...
No, no, no.
See, that's the part of...
That's the thing which I don't get.
Every time you speak before a group of people, whether you're Trump...
Why would Trump...
Why would Trump take...
Desanctimonious?
Why would he go after Ron DeSantis?
People love him.
They love his wife.
What do you...
I don't understand what...
What do you think this is?
You're playing to the jury.
This is a closing argument.
What are you doing?
Why are you alienating people?
I know it's fun.
Everything is not a roast.
Everything is not like, get them!
Okay, fine.
But MTG, Marjorie Taylor Greene, what does she represent?
Remember, let's assume she's running for president one day.
She talks, right?
How do you go after the suburban moms or the regular kind of, the ones who are poachable, the undecided, the independents?
What would you say?
What would it be?
Think about this.
You've got to lose these firebrand issues, the usual stuff.
And ask yourself this question.
What really matters?
Do all the polling.
Economics.
Crime.
But let's don't call it crime.
Call it safety and security.
Very simple thing.
Economics.
Let's make it even easier.
Being able to afford stuff.
And third.
What's the third?
What's the third issue?
Family.
Kids.
Those things.
Everybody has a connection to this.
Those are three things right there.
By the way, the most important things in the world for you to think of is food, water, and energy.
And we'll get to that.
Those are some issues we'll get to later on.
But for the most part, it's economics.
Economics.
And Marjorie Tanner Green, or AOC, doesn't matter.
Start off with this.
Why do you think?
And then you have the numbers in front of you.
You know what eggs cost now compared to this?
You know what milk costs?
You know whatever.
Tires cost?
What lumber cost?
Do you know what this costs now compared to them?
Do you know what?
Do you know what this price is?
What, do you think there's less lumber now?
Do you think there's no more eggs?
Why is the price going up for eggs?
Why?
And people, believe it or not, do not have even a rudimentary understanding of economics.
They're not really sure.
It's a good question.
Yeah!
I never thought about this.
There's plenty of eggs.
What?
You don't believe this business about we're running out of oil, do you?
When diesel's $7, $8 a gallon, what?
You think we ran out of it?
What are you talking about?
No, no, no.
It's a commodity.
It's speculative.
What do you think?
Let me explain to you how this thing works.
You want to try that Ukraine-Putin story out for them?
Go ahead.
Give it a shot.
It's not going to work here.
And then you have somebody listen.
And you think, wow!
I never really thought about this.
Who doesn't want to know that?
Leave the right and left trappings aside.
Leave them aside.
Put them over here.
Crime security.
My friends, this is the best one ever.
There's only a few people doing all of this terrible stuff to all of us.
Just a few.
99% of this country is law-abiding.
99%!
We're not talking about going after anybody.
We're talking about people, and we know who they are.
We know it!
Let me just bring that up.
We know this.
Catching people is easy.
I can do it.
I want to catch the bad guys who want to hurt you and your family.
No, stop right there.
Who?
AOC?
MTG?
What?
Liberals don't want safety?
Is that what you're saying?
Oh, no, no, no.
We want cash bail.
No.
That's not it.
And finally, children, have this any way you want.
Be careful how you phrase it.
Be careful how you phrase it.
Those are the big three.
And I could tell each AOC or MTG?
Doesn't matter.
Doesn't matter.
And when a Maureen Dowd goes after when she is the standard...
And by the way, she's playing to her New York Times crowd, which is fun.
That's what you do.
She's a columnist.
She's not elected.
This is her First Amendment right.
You play.
Just when you go on Fox News, you want to play to your audience as well.
It makes sense.
Why are you dagging about it?
It makes sense.
But what she's doing is something so interesting.
She is playing to the stereotypes.
Now, what do you do?
You use this as an example for you.
You can say, well, look at this.
Marjorie Taylor Greene says, look, everybody thinks we're crazy.
Maureen Dowd thinks we're crazy.
She thinks we're crazy.
What is going on here?
She thinks we're crazy.
Why does she think we're crazy?
I don't know.
Because we believe in whatever.
That's it.
AOC can do the same thing.
Listen, they love to hate me.
I understand it.
Maybe because I'm a woman.
Maybe because I'm young.
Maybe because people want to date me.
Whatever the bigger phrase is.
AOC has to talk to find Those positions she has maintained and rephrased them to make them sound either logical or less nuts to the group of people out there who might have something to say.
Who might say, you know what?
I never thought about this.
This is very good.
I didn't know that about her.
That's how you win.
So, understand MTG, AOC, doesn't matter.
Understand what the other side is saying and then use the momentum against you against them.
Now, I want you to do me a favor and to subscribe to my channel.
Do you know that in two years, I was looking at the numbers, two years, I went down and lost almost 15,000 to the number.
In two years!
What channel loses that much?
I know what you're going to say.
No, most of the time, they grow.
And that's the way it should be.
You have a bread-baking channel, you've got a pet-walking channel, or an unboxing hairdryer, or whatever it is.
More people watch.
So that's why I need your subscription, your follow.
I need this.
Make sure you hit that little bell so you notify when I'm talking to you, I've got a new video up.
