Thank you. | |
| Thank you. | ||
| You're watching America First. | ||
| My name is Nicholas J. Fuentes. | ||
| We have a great show for you tonight. | ||
| Very excited to be back with you here tonight on Wednesday. | ||
| We have a lot to talk about tonight. | ||
| Lots to get into. | ||
| Big show. | ||
| Big show. | ||
| Very exciting. | ||
| It's actually a really slow news day. | ||
| And I didn't even watch the news today. | ||
| I guess the FBI went to Biden's house. | ||
| Uh, but that's really it. | ||
| But we do have some news to go over. | ||
| Our featured story is about Trump. | ||
| We were supposed to cover this on Monday but never got to it because I just kind of went on like an insane binge. | ||
| And if you missed the show on Monday, we previewed it on Monday. | ||
| Trump's been getting more based. | ||
| He's clearly Picking up on the fact that his strategy isn't working, so it seems like he's trying to bring back the 2016 vibe. | ||
| He's being based again. | ||
| He's trying to be a little red-pilled, kind of based. | ||
| And he's posting this stuff on True Social, which is clearly a throwback. | ||
| I want to go over that. | ||
| I want to go over the things that he posted and analyze what the direction is and talk about what that means for the state of the race. | ||
| Of course, it's a big deal. | ||
| Trump announced in November and it was kind of horrible and soul-crushingly disappointing because that was really all we had at that point in time. | ||
| That was really all that we had going for us. | ||
| That was before Ye met with Trump and Mar-a-Lago and went on Alex Jones. | ||
| But at that time, that was where at least I had placed all of our hopes for the next few years, and it was a total disaster. | ||
| And it seems like it just keeps getting worse. | ||
| Like, he hosts all these gay people at his house, and then he goes to the Jews and says all that. | ||
| But lately it seems like he's trying to turn it around, and I said on Telegram that it's not really well executed, but if it's an indication that he realizes there's a problem, then it's a very good sign, because it means that it's possible that it could get better. | ||
| So we'll talk about that. | ||
| We'll also be talking tonight about this new report from the RAND Corporation, which is a major military think tank And they put out a big report and they talked about how the United States should basically surrender to Russia. | ||
| We keep escalating our involvement in the conflict. | ||
| We recently shipped over a bunch of tanks and Germany sent tanks. | ||
| And so it seems like it just keeps going on and we keep sending heavier and more equipment. | ||
| But the consensus is breaking apart. | ||
| On the one hand, Henry Kissinger went to the World Economic Forum and said that we should keep the war going and Ukraine should join NATO. | ||
| But now you've got RAND Corporation saying, actually, we're never going to dislodge Russia from where they already are. | ||
| And by perpetuating the conflict, we're only increasing the chance that they'll just win more territory than they already have. | ||
| So we'll talk about that too. | ||
| Should be a pretty good show. | ||
| Like I said, kind of a slow day today. | ||
| I'm back in my blue hoodie. | ||
| How does my blue hoodie look? | ||
| How does it complement my- How does it go- You know, here's the problem. | ||
| When I'm normally doing my show, I can't look at the monitor because the monitor's over here and the camera's over here. | ||
| But now that I have the webcam on and I'm looking at my notes while I have the webcam Up? | ||
| Now I just look at myself. | ||
| It's like I'm looking in the mirror. | ||
| So now I'm just kind of like checking myself out every time. | ||
| Anyway, while I'm back in the hoodie, I washed it, OK? | ||
| And I thought I ruined this. | ||
| This is not an interesting story, but I'll tell it anyway. | ||
| I thought I ruined this hoodie, which was such a shame because this is the famous hoodie. | ||
| This is the hoodie I wore to Mar-a-Lago. | ||
| This is the hoodie I wore. | ||
| When I was back in November, you know, in that initial phase when I was on Alex Jones and Tim Pool and all that. | ||
| And honestly, I was like afraid to wash it because I'm like, what if I ruin this hoodie in the wash? | ||
| This is an historic hoodie. | ||
| This is an historic article of clothing. | ||
| I can never wash it. | ||
| But eventually I wanted to wear it again. | ||
| It was just, there was like stains on it and stuff. | ||
| So I was like, okay, I got to wash it. | ||
| And so I threw it in the washing machine by itself. | ||
| And I don't know if, I don't know what happened, but I put it in the washing machine by itself. | ||
| And when I went to take it out, it was literally like a hundred pounds. | ||
| I don't know how that's even possible, but I literally was struggling to lift it out of the washing machine because I don't know what that is, but it was so soaking wet it was probably like, I'm not even exaggerating, it was like 60 pounds. | ||
| Somehow. | ||
| It had all this water in it. | ||
| It was like a bucket of water contained in the hoodie. | ||
| So I'm like, you know, I'm trying to lift it. | ||
| I throw it in the dryer. | ||
| It doesn't dry. | ||
| I air dry it. | ||
| Then it's all like crunchy. | ||
| And anyway, I threw it back in the wash. | ||
| And I just put it in the dryer for like two hours and it dried. | ||
| But anyway. | ||
| So that's the story of how we got the hoodie back. | ||
| I'm in a new, I'm in a new place. | ||
| I was in one place for the month of January. | ||
| Now I'm in another place. | ||
| So I had to move. | ||
| Kind of a stressful day. | ||
| It's kind of a stressful 48 hours, but I moved, I'm in a new crib, it's pretty chill, and what else? | ||
| I'm starving. | ||
| I'm honestly, I'm a little bit, I'm kind of like halfway here because I haven't eaten since this morning. | ||
| You know, I'm just trying not to eat as much because I'm just like paranoid about getting fat lately. | ||
| So I just kind of stopped eating. | ||
| And, uh, so I had this breakfast sandwich this morning. | ||
| Well, I door-dashed this breakfast sandwich, and then I order a $7 latte, and they deliver it, and it's a can. | ||
| It was like a, it was a canned coffee. | ||
| I'm like, are you serious? | ||
| $7 is a lot already for a latte, then you bring me... I could get this at 7-Eleven. | ||
| So anyway, so I had this breakfast sandwich, I had this can of coffee, and that was like 12 hours ago. | ||
|
unidentified
|
So I'm running on E. I'm running on empty. | |
| So... I'm already a little bit pissed off, I'm a little bit tired, I'm a little sleepy, but... | ||
| Hey, you know, if I canceled the show, everybody would get mad at me. | ||
| So here I am, cheerful and chipper and jovial, ready to do a show. | ||
| I got a big day tomorrow! | ||
| Big day tomorrow, big event in the history of the universe, basically. | ||
| So pray for me, pray for this big day tomorrow. | ||
| We got a big meeting tomorrow. | ||
| So that'll the sort of the fate of the movement hangs in the balance tomorrow. | ||
| We'll see what happens. | ||
| But anyway, so I've just been getting prepared. | ||
| I got a lot of work to do but That's sort of what I've been up to. | ||
| I didn't do a show yesterday because I was sleeping. | ||
| I was up all night the night before. | ||
| Then I fell asleep and I woke up at like six o'clock and I was like, I'm not doing a show. | ||
| Six o'clock Pacific. | ||
| So I'm like, yeah, I'm just not. | ||
| I'm going back to bed. | ||
| Then I watched a couple movies. | ||
| Then I got some ice cream. | ||
| Then I got some fried chicken. | ||
| Then I had breakfast. | ||
| This was a pretty good day. | ||
| I slept like a half hour earlier. | ||
| That's why I'm two hours late, because I slept like a half hour before the show. | ||
| So, anyway. | ||
|

| Actually, it's a network protocol. | ||
| What the... We've been, you know, whatever. | ||
| So follow, you know, so follow me on there. | ||
| I'm on there. | ||
| I'm hanging out. | ||
| I'm not really posting any good content or anything. | ||
| Listen, I just want my Twitter back, okay? | ||
| Is that so much to ask for? | ||
| Ali got his Twitter back. | ||
| What, is it because he's black? | ||
| No, he's actually going out to bat for me. | ||
| I appreciate that. | ||
| But, uh, well, what the heck? | ||
| I mean, what am I? | ||
| I'm over here. | ||
| Everybody's getting freed on Twitter. | ||
| I get, you know, I get this cruel tease. | ||
| I get this cruel trickery. | ||
| They let me on. | ||
| They take me off a day later. | ||
| That's just not right. | ||
| So, uh, I'm out here languishing in obscurity on Telegram and, uh, Nostradamus. | ||
| And everything's happening. | ||
| Well, really nothing's happening on Twitter. | ||
| I come back on Twitter and it's an event. | ||
| I'm getting this crazy engagement. | ||
| Everybody's loving it. | ||
| I get banned on Twitter. | ||
| What's even happening? | ||
| No offense, but people with even more followers than me can't even get as much engagement as me because they're boring. | ||
| And, you know, quite honestly, they all bitch about shadow banning. | ||
| And they did that before Elon, they're doing it after Elon. | ||
| Make better content! | ||
| I literally never had a problem with shadowbanning. | ||
| I always punched way above my weight class on Twitter, and that's because I penetrated You know, I'd go hard. | ||
| I penetrated the Shadowband. | ||
| I just breached it because my content is epic. | ||
| So, you get all these boring, lame guys who post Benny Johnson content, and they're like, I'm getting Shadowbanned! | ||
| They're throttling my content! | ||
| And I would just smash through it by being funny and... | ||
| Provocative. | ||
| And I was doing that already! | ||
| I got like two and a half, three million impressions my first day back. | ||
| It was crazy. | ||
| You know, I put that tweet out about, remember that? | ||
| Wasn't that great? | ||
| I put that tweet out about Zog versus Globalist American Empire. | ||
| Everybody loved it. | ||
| It was getting great engagement. | ||
| I came back for one day. | ||
| Such a powerful user. | ||
| Literally the most powerful user on the timeline. | ||
| And that's why they had to take it away. | ||
| That's why they had to defang me. | ||
| So, I'm... So, alright. | ||
| I guess you defeated me again. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh, man. | |
| Foiled again. | ||
| That's kind of like how it feels, you know? | ||
| It does have that rhythm of like a supervillain. | ||
| It's like, just when you think world domination is within grasp, it's like, foiled again. | ||
| Foiled again! | ||
| We're taking off Twitter, YouTube, the FBI's taking my money, put on a no-fly list, whatever. | ||
| Damn. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Damn! | |
| I was so close, and we were so close! | ||
| To achieving our plan. | ||
| And we got banned on Twitter, but anyway. | ||
| So that's that. | ||
| All right, what else? | ||
| All right, so we're gonna dive in. | ||
| We're gonna dive into the news here. | ||
| We'll talk about this Russia story. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And What is that noise? | |
| Really? | ||
| Anyway, um... So, we haven't talked about Russia in a long time, and to be honest with you, I haven't been following it very closely, but there was just this big report by the RAND Corporation, which, if you don't know, is one of these, like, super think tanks for the defense industry. | ||
| And the big story is that they put out this report and basically said we lost. | ||
| They said we lost, pack it up, it's over. | ||
| Which is news, because, as you know, we keep recommitting to this conflict. | ||
| The conflict is dragging on now for, it's almost been a full year. | ||
| The war started on February 24th, 2022. | ||
| It's February 1st, 2023. | ||
| So it's been 11 months of war, and initially the narrative was that Russia had encountered unexpectedly strong resistance, and that we're gonna win this thing, and we're gonna put sanctions on Russia, man, and we're gonna And the prospect of being sanctioned indefinitely is going to deter them from moving further. | ||
| And that was a narrative for like, I don't know, six months, nine months. | ||
| And then the reality began to set in that the sanctions are really destroying continental Europe. | ||
| They're the only losers here. | ||
| Because Russia's doing fine. | ||
| I mean, they're taking a hit to their GDP, as anyone would, by losing trade. | ||
| But, The countries that are really experiencing the worst economic downturn from this would be Germany and the other continental European countries. | ||
| So the Europeans are complaining, and at the same time, we're not even achieving our strategic objectives. | ||
| Russia is not losing ground, contrary to the narrative pushed by NATO. | ||
| They're hanging on. | ||
| They're not going to lose Crimea. | ||
| They're not going to lose the Donbass. | ||
| It just isn't going to happen. | ||
| The idea that Ukraine will be able to effectively launch counter-offensives and they're going to win back large swaths of territory and secure the full state and then accede to NATO, like it just isn't going to happen. | ||
| And we've known that for like a year. | ||
| And very early on, we realized that that NATO propaganda was delusional. | ||
| Maybe they would stop Russia. | ||
| Maybe they would slow Russia down. | ||
| But it was never in the cards that they were going to roll Russia all the way back to the pre-2014 borders. | ||
| That they're going to, in other words, get Crimea back. | ||
| That they're going to put down this insurrection in Donbass. | ||
| That was just never going to happen. | ||
| And anybody, again, the most that you could say, as liberal as you could be, is say that Ukraine was going to indefinitely halt the Russian advance. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes. | |
| That the combination of the sanctions and this logistical support and open-ended commitment to Ukraine, the idea was that we could indefinitely halt Russia Inflict casualties, destroy their equipment, stop the advance, deter them from going further. | ||
| But that's as far as it was ever going to get. | ||
| In the media, of course, they were saying, no, we're going to win. | ||
| Like, Zelensky's going to be the president forever, and they're going to win, and it's going to be this David and Goliath story. | ||
| It was delusional. | ||
| And now this major defense think tank is saying the same thing. | ||
| So this is from Russia Today. | ||
| It says, quote, The RAND Corporation, a highly influential elite national security think tank funded directly by the Pentagon, has published a landmark report stating that prolonging the proxy war is actively harming the United States and its allies and warning Washington that it should avoid a protracted conflict in Ukraine. | ||
| The report has an unequivocal title, Avoiding a Long War, U.S. | ||
| Policy and the Trajectory of the Russia-Ukraine Conflict. | ||
| And it provides a strong indication as to its contents. | ||
| It starts by stating that the fighting represents, quote, the most significant interstate conflict in decades, and its evolution will have major consequences for Washington, which includes U.S. | ||
| interests being actively harmed. | ||
| The report makes it very clear that while Ukrainians have been doing the fighting and their cities have been flattened and economy decimated, these interests are not synonymous with Kiev's. | ||
| The U.S. | ||
| ending its financial, humanitarian, and particularly military support promptly would cause Ukraine to completely collapse, and Rand cites several reasons why doing so would be sensible, not least of all because Ukrainian victory is regarded as both improbable and unlikely due to Russian resolve and its military mobilization having rectified the manpower deficit that enabled Ukraine's success in the Kharkiv counter-offensive. | ||
| So, It's a pretty big deal, because this is the Pentagon essentially admitting defeat. | ||
| And we had talked about this for a long time, and it was so funny, because whenever these things happen, the propaganda is just totally divorced from reality. | ||
| And I've talked about this a lot. | ||
| The story that's relevant here, I mean, we are going to talk about the war. | ||
| But to me this is more of a reflection on the way that the media works. | ||
| I know I was like trying we do this a lot but The propaganda that is pushed in the mass media, which is extremely effective, is always so urgent, and so extreme, and so delusional. | ||
| And it's always important to remind you that it works. | ||
| Because when you're in the moment, it's totally overwhelming. | ||
| Like when the vaccine thing was going on, it seemed like if you didn't get the vaccine, like you were just gonna die. | ||
| Like they would just kill you or something. | ||
| When COVID was going on, everybody thought, everybody's wearing masks and face shields and putting Purell on their groceries. | ||
| We ran out of toilet paper. | ||
| And then when the vaccine came out, it was like, if you don't get the vaccine, you're never going to work again. | ||
| You're never going to leave your house again. | ||
| And then when the Ukraine war started, it was the Ukraine flags everywhere. | ||
| And always in the moment, The propaganda is so unhinged, it's so urgent, it's so over-the-top, and so effective that people's minds are being destroyed by this. | ||
| And I remember debating Destiny about this. | ||
| And, you know, the Russia subject is something that I've been interested in for like 10 years. | ||
| I remember when Russia invaded Crimea in 2014. | ||
| I was talking about it. | ||
| I was giving speeches and speech team in high school about that. | ||
| I was doing simulations in Model UN about that. | ||
| I literally played Sergey Lavrov, the foreign minister, in like a Model UN committee. | ||
| I was writing essays about Russia's grand strategy and and all this kind of stuff. | ||
| I mean even before Trump And the whole Russia collusion thing was going on. | ||
| I wrote a white paper in Model UN about how Russia should fund UKIP, and Alternative for Deutschland, and Syriza, and all these far-right parties to break apart the NATO alliance. | ||
| You know, and I know that all sounds like silly or whatever, but the point is, I actually had an interest in the subject. | ||
| I actually have like a deep background on it. | ||
| going back a long time. | ||
| And so going into the debate, It was very comfortable because I was very familiar with the whole dynamic about this idea of rebuilding the Soviet Union and the whole history there of the eastward NATO expansion and the war in Georgia and the prospect of Ukraine-Georgian membership in NATO. | ||
| I was very familiar with all of that. | ||
| Even like the intermediate missiles, and the debate over that, their deployment in Eastern Europe. | ||
| So I went into the debate very comfortably, and what was really, truly shocking about it was this guy didn't know anything about the subject. | ||
| Like, at all. | ||
| He didn't know any of the players. | ||
| He didn't know any of the history. | ||
| And it just astounds me, the abject stupidity that he came, and now I can just reveal my open contempt for Destiny. | ||
| I mean, he comes in there so confidently, but just, like, vomiting up liberal bullshit that he, like, saw on TV. | ||
| He's like, well, Putin said that the worst geopolitical catastrophe of the 21st century is rebuilding the Soviet Union. | ||
| And all these idiots that watch him, you know, all these, and they're all like OnlyFans and they're mind destroyed by hormone therapy and everything. | ||
| All his tranny fans are watching this like, ooh, oh, like this is, I'm learning. | ||
| I'm being entertained and I'm learning. | ||
| This is amazing. | ||
| I feel so smart. | ||
| And it's like, I've been hearing this bullshit for 10 years. | ||
| Like, do you think this is fresh content? | ||
| That was the NATO propaganda 10 years ago. | ||
| I was 15 or whatever. | ||
| I don't know how old I am. | ||
| I was 16 when they were saying the same thing. | ||
| And it was the other side! | ||
| At that time it was the Democrats saying to not worry about Russia. | ||
| Going back to 2012, going back before that, it was Hillary Clinton that did the Russian reset with Lavrov when she was the Secretary of State. | ||
| It was Obama in 2012 who said, we have fewer horses and bayonets too, and the 1980s called, they want their foreign policy back. | ||
| It moved across the spectrum, and it's been the same conversation for 10 years, and it's literally the same talking points. | ||
| I remember going to the Chicago Council on Foreign Relations book club meeting and getting my Garry Kasparov book signed, Winter is Coming, with this Jewish spook. | ||
| He wrote a book about how Putin is Hitler and all that trash. | ||
| And I read Bret Stephens' America in Retreat and all that about how like America's just gotta beef up and we gotta maintain the Cold War tripwire and all these flashpoints against China and Russia and Iran. | ||
| You know, so, been there, done that, got the t-shirt. | ||
| Okay, it's been a long journey. | ||
| And anyway, so the most offensive thing about the debate was just, like, his confidence going in, like, um, so I think, uh, what is his name again? | ||
| Yanukovych? | ||
| Uh, yeah, so he's like a total freaking asshole, and basically, like, Ukraine voted to, like, be America's slave, and that's their right, and basically Putin's, like, Hitler, And I'm just sitting there like, you know, this guy just gets all his opinions from TV. | ||
| And that is... | ||
| That is the unignorable, quintessential feature of our political society now, which is that the media, as much as we hate to admit it, is so effective. | ||
| And people have begun to notice it. | ||
| People say it's like the current thing. | ||
| I'm in favor of the current thing, whether that's BLM, the Vax, the mask, the Ukraine flag, whatever. | ||
| But the disturbing reality that underlies that is that it works. | ||
| Like, the government just controls everyone. | ||
| They just control everybody! | ||
| And so when a free guy like me, or Ye, or Trump starts talking, or something like this pops off, they just hit the button and they get the mass media coverage and everybody's just like, yup. | ||
| I am very smart. | ||
| I am very intelligent. | ||
| I read the Wall Street Journal report about Ukraine. | ||
| Now I'm educated on it. | ||
| And anyway, so the point is, it was as true one year ago. | ||
| Okay, the war is entering its 12th month here. | ||
| And it was just as true 12 months ago, 11 months ago, 10 months ago, 9 months ago. | ||
| It was just as true then. | ||
| As it was 10 years ago, as it is now, that Kiev will not control Crimea. | ||
| They will not take back Crimea. | ||
| They will not take back the Donbass. | ||
| And all of the bullshit that has gone on in between, like Russia attacking nuclear power plants, do you remember that one? | ||
| Or imminent usage of chemical weapons, and they're bombing maternity wards, and Bucha! | ||
| Pray for Kombucha! | ||
| Pray for Boochieboo! | ||
| Pray for Doopadoo, the city where, uh, I don't know, they're just like, super mutants are raping everybody and then cutting their faces off. | ||
| You know, all the intermediary bullshit. | ||
| And it's just as true today when the Pentagon finally admits it, that that was never gonna happen. | ||
| But you would never know a year ago because it was just blasted on TV everywhere and even like smart people just took it and believed it and they were like, yeah, like we're going to win this thing. | ||
| And that's insane to me. | ||
| So, to me, that, it's really, this isn't news. | ||
| Oh, you know, Ukraine isn't going to take back Crimea? | ||
| Whoa, major development. | ||
| Didn't see that one coming. | ||
| You mean Ukraine is not going to take over Crimea? | ||
| Ukraine is not going to defeat the Russian military? | ||
| That's, what? | ||
| What an unexpected surprise. | ||
| Now, that's not news. | ||
| The news is that the Pentagon admitted what the Conspiracy theorists, you know, racists, like whatever, were saying a year ago. | ||
| And if you went back in a time machine, it would be a lot easier said than done to line up with people like me or whoever. | ||
| But you see that when all is said and done, it doesn't matter. | ||
| Because the truth is the truth. | ||
| It's the same thing with the vaccine. | ||
| It's like, I know a lot of people that got the vaccine, I know some people that I like that got the vaccine. | ||
| I know family members that got the vaccine. | ||
| And I know that there were people that, even though I was on here every day telling people, like, hey, do not get the vaccine. | ||
| I hate you if you get the vaccine. | ||
| You turn your back on us if you got the vaccine. | ||
| Like, lose your job, lose your school, all that. | ||
| But I know there's a large proportion of people that watch the show, and if you're one of them, hey, you know, like, fuck you, okay? | ||
| I mean, there are some people that I like that did it, but also, like, fuck you for doing that. | ||
| There are a lot of people that watch the show and, you know, were fans and everything, that went out and got it. | ||
| Because they just caved, like they just totally buckled, they cucked. | ||
| Because even on something as intimate and significant as that, which is the government saying, you have to get a vaccine, like that's just, no one ever thought it would get that far, but it did. | ||
| The government saying you will lose your job, you can't go out if you don't get our experimental vaccine. | ||
| Like, could you have imagined a more urgent, extreme circumstance prior to that happening? | ||
| No! | ||
| No one would have ever seriously said that that was imminent until it happened. | ||
| And I was on the show every day saying, don't get it. | ||
| It's deadly. | ||
| It's experimental. | ||
| It's not safe. | ||
| It's not worth it. | ||
| Look at the data. | ||
| Look at the science. | ||
| Look at the contradictions. | ||
| Look at how they change the story every day. | ||
| Look at what's really going on here. | ||
| And think about our future. | ||
| If we can't resist this, what can we resist? | ||
| And in spite of me being right, in spite of me being correct, and all of that being pretty self-evident, there were a lot of people that loved the show and fully believed it that got it anyway. | ||
| They just went in there and were like, oh, don't hate me guys, but I gotta do what I gotta do. | ||
| For various reasons. | ||
| And now a year later, they're like, man, biggest regret of my life, that was so stupid, I can't believe I did that. | ||
| And it just goes to show, you know, it's so it's not even about like the Ukraine thing is pretty Insignificant by comparison it's pretty remote But it's everything is like this and you need to know that it's like you need to mentally prepare yourself you need to | ||
| Reminisce about when the media hysteria is at its worst and remember what it felt like and think about what it feels like now about the masks, about the VACs, about George Floyd and the Black Square and about Ukraine. | ||
| And really meditate on that because there's going to be another thing and it's going to be overwhelming. | ||
| And it's going to feel, of course, much more overwhelming in the moment than it does now. | ||
| And that's why people almost need to begin to kind of train their brain and condition themselves, visualize that. | ||
| The next emergency, the next, the next crusade and be ready to resist it and say, uh, no, I trust my own reasoning. | ||
| I trust my own discernment. | ||
| And that's, that's how you're, you know, that's how you're not going to go and go crazy when the George Floyd thing pops off or go and get vaccinated or do a bunch of crazy stuff with the masks or, Ukraine, whatever. | ||
| Because I genuinely do feel bad for people who got the vax because it was a pretty tough deal. | ||
| But now you see the consequences. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Like, people are straight up dying from this. | |
| I don't care what anybody said. | ||
| Like, I've never seen so many stories about healthy young people dying from myocarditis. | ||
| Have you ever seen that? | ||
| Because I know there's some stuff people say, well, there's no excess deaths or something. | ||
| And I don't know, statistically, I think all the statistics are manipulated. | ||
| I don't think that's a cope to say that. | ||
| They were manipulated during COVID. | ||
| You think they're not manipulated after? | ||
| Do you remember when they would report hospitalizations for COVID? | ||
| And they would say that if you broke your arm and you went to the hospital and then they happen to test you positive for COVID and you didn't even know that you had it, they would count that as someone that was hospitalized for COVID. | ||
| That's just like one example of how they cook the books. | ||
| And they did the same thing with deaths. | ||
| If you got hit by a truck and died and they did an autopsy and they found out that you died from getting hit by a truck, but they also found out that you had COVID at the same time, that was a COVID death. | ||
| And that happened. | ||
| So, I don't pay too much attention to, like, what the government numbers are. | ||
| Well, the government says that there are, you know... Well, and the government says that there's no crime going on. | ||
| Why? | ||
| Because the cops don't even respond to it anymore. | ||
| The statistics are very dirty liars, okay? | ||
| They're very dirty, and that's just how they operate. | ||
| But we, we see what's going on. | ||
| I know way more people that died from heart attacks than died from COVID. | ||
| In my, like, family friend circle. | ||
| And certainly, you see a lot more of that happening on TV. | ||
| How many news anchors, football players, teenagers did you hear of dying from COVID? | ||
| Versus how many do you see dropping dead from a heart attack? | ||
| Despite being perfectly healthy. | ||
| So I mean this stuff is very, the media control and hysteria and the power of the mob, it's a very serious thing. | ||
| So anyway, so that's the Russia-Ukraine. | ||
| I mean, I'm not going to give you like a strategic view because the story is really just about this report, but it just goes to show like the government will admit these things. | ||
| Just like eventually, it will come to light that like Israel did 9/11. | ||
| It will come to light that the Mossad killed JFK It will come to light all these things They all seem crazy at the time like you know white replacement was crazy six years ago When we went to Charlottesville to protest white replacement, that was too far. | ||
| Like, the alt-light wouldn't touch that. | ||
| Now everybody knows it's true. | ||
| And so, even something like Ye saying, I love Hitler. | ||
| Is he crazy? | ||
| Or is he just five years ahead of the curve? | ||
| Just like the people that said that the Vax kills, or that Ukraine will lose, or that masks don't work, or that George Floyd wasn't actually killed by the cops. | ||
| You know, or whatever for that matter. | ||
| Or everything that Alex Jones said about, you know, the Bilderberg, Illuminati, lizard people. | ||
| So, you know, that's just how the society works. | ||
| And people need to understand that principle. | ||
| It's about, it's about that principle and it's about that system. | ||
| Because once you realize that that is just how it works, you know, then you really begin to see the whole system of control. | ||
| And how, you know, just how they have achieved what they have. | ||
| So anyway, so that's the Ukraine. | ||
| Like I said, we knew from the beginning it was and they of course the Kiev government had some minor success in the latter half of the last year. | ||
| They had all this tactics and logistics from NATO and of course the heavy artillery and officers and even like mercenaries and things like that. | ||
| And so they were able to have some minor success on the battlefield. | ||
| But once again, the idea that Ukraine could or that Russia would allow for Crimea to be lost, it just was never gonna happen. | ||
| And you saw that when Russia began to suffer setbacks, what did they do? | ||
| They did a partial mobilization of 300,000 reservists So, I mean, do you think that Russia would ever allow Crimea to be lost? | ||
| It's unacceptable. | ||
| And if you know anything about the geostrategic situation there, it's about control over the Black Sea. | ||
| Control over the Black Sea has been historically important for Russia going back to the Crimean War in the middle of the 19th century. | ||
| It's always been strategically important because the Black Sea is the gateway to Eurasia. | ||
| And also, it's important for port access. | ||
| If you know anything about the geography of Russia, they don't really have access to the global waterways. | ||
| Anyway, so it's about their navy in the Black Sea. | ||
| It's about their naval base at Sevastopol. | ||
| It's about their control over the Black Sea and their ability to project power in Turkey and in Eastern Europe. | ||
| And to control their line with NATO. | ||
| So it was just, they were just never going to allow that. | ||
| And even when, once again, Ukraine was able to have some success, what did they do? | ||
| They mobilized 300,000 guys, started training them and all that, and those guys are gradually being deployed and, you know, they had to be kind of trained and then they're, you know, they're kind of shuffling the existing ones in and all that. | ||
| And if it came to it, they would do a full mobilization. | ||
| If it came to it, it would come to nukes and missiles and they would mobilize everybody and they'd make a wartime economy to make artillery. | ||
| They'd bring in the bombers. | ||
| They'd start indiscriminately bombing. | ||
| They would never allow it. | ||
| And, like, again, so, you know, I know I'm kind of harping on it, but it just, it never made any sense. | ||
| But that never mattered. | ||
| Even though there was no argument, it just didn't matter, because TV would just go constantly with this drumbeat about, you know, the resolve of the Ukrainians, the ghost of Kiev, and Zelensky's such a hunk. | ||
| If he, if I found him in bed with my wife, I just ask him, do you remember how fucking disgusting that stuff was? | ||
| They were literally, I don't know if that was like trolls, I don't know if that was like, like, uh, you know, right-wing trolls going and posting that like, you know, parody it, but do you remember, I don't even think that's true, I think that was real, where all these libfags were going on and saying, if I found Zelensky in bed with my wife, I'd ask, I'd tuck him in and ask how he wants his coffee in the morning. | ||
| It's like, do you know how fucking gross that is? | ||
| And do you understand how fucking insane, I'm sorry for the language, but that's insane. | ||
| Did anybody know who Zelensky was? | ||
| Did anybody even today know who he is? | ||
| I mean, really? | ||
| They see him on the cover of Time Magazine, and they see the show business propaganda about him on the nightly news, but they don't know who this guy, they don't know he's like a Jewish actor involved with the mob, They don't know any of that. | ||
| They don't know the whole story there. | ||
| And they had never heard of this guy. | ||
| And they couldn't even point to Ukraine on a map. | ||
| But like, overnight, it's not even to say people were sort of indifferent, but basically supported the government's stance. | ||
| No, people were like, like literally ejaculating over some gangster, third world, puppet regime. | ||
| That's crazy! | ||
| That's like North Korea levels of propaganda. | ||
| Like, could you imagine? | ||
| I guess the alternative would be if in Russia they were talking that way about... Who's the president of Belarus? | ||
| What's his name? | ||
| What does it start with? | ||
| Come on, what's his name? | ||
| Lukashenko. | ||
| I mean, could you imagine if in, like, Russia they had all this problems? | ||
| Well, I mean, even that would make more sense. | ||
| I don't even know what you could compare it to. | ||
| It's just crazy. | ||
| That you would have, like, normal people, like, you know, normal, like, what we would, what is considered normal these days, you would have these, like, normal people who just watch, like, TV and football and, like, you know, try to pick up chicks at the bar, whatever. | ||
| And they're, like, creaming their pants over some, like, third-world Jewish gangster puppet leader that they had never heard of, and, like, they have no idea what's going on. | ||
| Suddenly they're, like, that invested. | ||
| Like, they're taking sides, like, uh... I don't know what a big pop culture feud is, like, uh... Who is that couple from the High School Musical show? | ||
| What's her name? | ||
| You know what I'm talking about? | ||
| Who's that girl that sings Good For You and her boyfriend? | ||
| It's like, it's like they were taking sides in something like that. | ||
| It's like they were taking sides in, like, some, like, uh, like a beef between Kanye and Drake. | ||
| You know, or Ye and Drake. | ||
| That they're like, ooh, I like some... That's just... And do you understand that that came from the Pentagon? | ||
| Like, do people realize how sick that is? | ||
| That the Pentagon... This is, like, the Pentagon's agenda for world domination. | ||
| And people are like, if I caught Zelensky in bed with my wife, I would tuck him in and ask how he liked his coffee. | ||
| That's the Pentagon! | ||
| That's the Pentagon talking! | ||
| That's the Pentagon's plan for control of the global grain supply. | ||
| And, you know, shit like that. | ||
| And shale oil and natural gas discovered in Ukraine. | ||
| And Russian energy control of Germany. | ||
| And like that, and people are invested in it to that, like sexually. | ||
| What? | ||
| Do you know how perverse that is? | ||
| And so this media complex, which is controlled by the state, just, it really has a lot of pull to a disturbing extent. | ||
| And how do you fight that? | ||
| You know, that's why getting on Twitter is so important. | ||
| Because otherwise, who controls Twitter? | ||
| Who controls Facebook? | ||
| It's like I did that show the other week. | ||
| The Associated Press does an article about how ADL and SPLC are warning about people like me getting on Twitter. | ||
| Or they're warning about anti-Semitic incidents online. | ||
| And it's like all these groups are in bed with the government, okay? | ||
| Like, all these groups are funded by the government. | ||
| These, uh, all these various non-profits, think tanks with, like, Strategy in their name, you know, Strategy, Defense, Institute, Policy Center, Research This, whatever, they're all getting money from the State Department, the Defense Department, from the constellation of corporate public interests that meet at Davos, And they're controlling the conference, and they think that they're, like, doing it for Harry Potter. | ||
| They think they're doing it for, like, Hermione Granger and women's rights. | ||
| They're going out there taking money hand over fist from the Pentagon and the State Department, and they're like, no, no, but this is okay, because we're doing this for, like, Pussy Riot. | ||
| We're doing this for, uh... | ||
| For Spongebob Squarepants, and for Katniss Evergreen, Everdeen, whatever. | ||
| We're doing this for Hunger Games, for Jennifer Lawrence. | ||
| We're doing this for women's right to vote, and for love instead of hatred, and kindness instead of meanness. | ||
| I don't know, I probably, I'm rambling a little. | ||
| I probably sound a little crazy, but... It's pretty messed up. | ||
| So, anyway. | ||
| So that's that. | ||
| So that's that. | ||
| Uh, yeah. | ||
| Shocker Ukraine is gonna lose, you know, we knew that I made a bet with destiny I said like I basically told them I said that in August I was like, you know what? | ||
| I'm like you can say whatever the NATO propaganda is today yesterday It was that Russia was attacking nuclear power plants today. | ||
| It's chemical weapons the day after its butcher I said see, you know, you can tell me whatever whatever like I Super duper serious report came from the government today I'm like, but when all is said and done like I'm gonna be right and I will bet you that I'm gonna be right and It doesn't matter what the TV says today and you know, how how good those sources are source These are experts. | ||
| These are the specialists, you know doesn't matter. | ||
| This is gonna be the outcome because that's just the facts That's just how it is So I'll bet you that Ukraine is going to lose. | ||
| And he's like, well, what does that mean? | ||
| Because that's like so complicated. | ||
| I'm like, here's the bet. | ||
| Russia will control the Donbass. | ||
| They will control Crimea. | ||
| That will be the new border. | ||
| Ukraine will never join NATO. | ||
| That's going to be the outcome! | ||
| Like, guess what? | ||
| That's going to be the outcome. | ||
| That was always going to be the outcome. | ||
| But they had to convince everybody. | ||
| They had to brainwash everybody to manufacture A mandate to do what they already wanted to do for some ulterior motive. | ||
| So that's what goes on. | ||
| That's why you have to be skeptical. | ||
| That's why you can't just say, why would the government lie? | ||
| I give them the benefit of the doubt. | ||
| Because it's not normal to have sexual fantasies about a Jewish gangster in Ukraine. | ||
| That's why. | ||
| That's why you can't trust. | ||
| Because that's not normal. | ||
| And people should have the, like, inception totem ability to understand that. | ||
| Do you know what I mean? | ||
| Like, because these people, they're like, well, we're in this post-truth age, I just don't know what to trust. | ||
| It's like, well, I think I have a pretty good hunch. | ||
| That if people are creaming their pants over Volodymyr Zelensky out of nowhere because the Pentagon wants to control Germany's energy, you know, something's wrong there. | ||
| You should be skeptical. | ||
| That's like spinning the Inception totem and realizing you're in a dream. | ||
| Because in real life, the top falls over. | ||
| In real life, you know, whatever it is with the dice and the chess piece, in real life, that's just how things go. | ||
| It's only in a dream could you believe that that would be normal. | ||
| So anyway, so that's that. | ||
| But I want to move on. | ||
| I want to get into this Trump story. | ||

Okay. | |
| Alright. | ||
| Last story of the night. | ||
|
unidentified
|
We're going to talk about Trump. | |
| Now I don't even want to do it. | ||
| I ate that snack to propel myself through the show, but now I don't even feel like it. | ||
| All right. | ||
| So, you know, our last story is our featured story here is about Trump. | ||
| And, you know, like we're so we're really unhappy with Trump right now because he's He just sucks. | ||
| I mean, don't get me wrong, I love him. | ||
| I love him as a guy. | ||
| I love him as a leader. | ||
| Like, I really do love him. | ||
| But I don't love this campaign. | ||
| And I did not like the campaign in 2020. | ||
| I did not like the first term. | ||
| I really have not loved anything about what Trump has been doing since the 2016 election. | ||
| Everything since then almost feels like a mistake. | ||
| The transition, the first term, the personnel, Platinum Plan, First Step Act, USMCA, the omnibus spending bill, all of it. | ||
| It all feels like a big mistake. | ||
| 2020 campaign, so many wasted opportunities. | ||
| And as you know, I was kind of hoping that Trump would be acceptable, and that if he were to get back in office, then we could fill up the White House with groipers. | ||
| And so even if he was only acceptable, if he was just fine, that would be okay, because we had a backdoor into the White House, into a future Trump White House, where we could fill it up and load it up with groipers. | ||
| That was the game plan. | ||
| But we saw the announcement, and I lost confidence that he could even, that he could even win the election. | ||
| Because the message was so hollow and so weak. | ||
| It was about inflation and gas prices. | ||
| It's almost like the last two years never happened. | ||
| I mean, you know, you can find it to be inconvenient in some ways, but it happened. | ||
| January 6th happened, the crackdown happened, the raid at Mar-a-Lago happened, the Twitter ban happened. | ||
| All these things are our reality. | ||
| We live in a world that is different because of the voter fraud, the crackdown on censorship, the COVID pandemic. | ||
| It's a different world. | ||
| It's a different country. | ||
| And he came out in In the last quarter of 22, uh, basically ignoring all that, like, denying all of those things. | ||
| The speech wasn't about any of those things. | ||
| It wasn't about the vaccine. | ||
| It wasn't about the lockdown. | ||
| It wasn't about the war. | ||
| It wasn't about the election fraud. | ||
| It wasn't even really so much about replacement. | ||
| It was about the economy, and it was about, like, almost everything else. | ||
| So I totally lost hope that he could even win. | ||
| That he would even be able to galvanize his base or the Republican Party to turn out, especially with the voter fraud, in 22. | ||
| In the midterms, that is. | ||
| And then, since that, it was just one disappointment after the next. | ||
| He comes out with this big log cabin Republican Party at Mar-a-Lago. | ||
| He goes to the Zionist conference to talk about how much he loves Israel. | ||
| And so it seems to just keep getting worse rather than better. | ||
| And this is one of the things that I told them in Mar-a-Lago is I, very humbly, I said, look, I said, like, I'm your guy. | ||
| Like, I love you. | ||
| I campaigned for you in 16. | ||
| I was at every Stop the Steal. | ||
| I was there on January 6th. | ||
| I said, and I love you. | ||
| I'm like, I think you're one of the greatest Americans that ever lived. | ||
| You're my hero. | ||
| Like, you know, all I have to say is thank you. | ||
| But he insisted. | ||
| I've told this story before, but I do love telling it because it's an epic story. | ||
| And I said, like, look, man, you got to go back. | ||
| And I was I didn't say it like this, but but the gist of it was like, look, you got to go back to attacking the GOP. | ||
| They're not your friend. | ||
| DeSantis isn't your friend. | ||
| McCarthy isn't your friend. | ||
| Like, we support you. | ||
| We support you against the GOP. | ||
| We want to see more of that because they're holding you back. | ||
| And we, you know, they've got you on script. | ||
| They've got you making these deals. | ||
| I said, I want to see you off script. | ||
| I want to see the 2015 The anti-Jeb Bush, Little Marco, the, you know, raising your hand at the Fox News. | ||
| That's what I wanted to see. | ||
| And, anyway, so... | ||
| I told him that. | ||
| It didn't really get better, and I had hoped that maybe somebody would break through, but the word in Trump world is that there is this impenetrable wall around him of advisers that are pushing him in this terrible direction. | ||
| I'm not going to name any names, but if you're in the know, you know who the queen is of the campaign, and you know one of the hatchet guys who's really bad news. | ||
| It's a bad crew around him, and they're not letting anybody get close. | ||
| They're not letting anybody go in. | ||
| Who is a positive influence and make the case. | ||
| But the white pill here and the good news is that it seems like Trump is doing a 180. | ||
| And he put out these posts on True Social the other day, and I'll read them here. | ||
| He said, the Club for No Growth is a globalist group that I had been taking to the cleaners for years. | ||
| We worked together for a period, but they couldn't get away from China, Europe, Asia, and parts unknown. | ||
| They know I won't play that game. | ||
| I am America first all that way. | ||
| That's the only way we will make America great again. | ||
| Ron DeSanctimonious, who I made governor in both the primary and the general, is also a globalist, and so are his donors. | ||
| Jeb Low Energy Bush was next to him last week. | ||
| Check passed. | ||
| So, here's the thing. | ||
| I actually kind of love that. | ||
| I think the execution needs work. | ||
| It's a little bit clunky. | ||
| I don't know if I love it. | ||
| But it's really exciting and encouraging because thematically, we have not heard anything like this since 2016. | ||
| And there are things in here particularly, of course he calls them globalist, that's a huge return to form. | ||
| He just stopped using that. | ||
| You know, he used that in 16, and then he just stopped using it after he got elected. | ||
| Never to be heard of again. | ||
| So of course just reintroducing that into the lexicon is important. | ||
| To say it's globalist. | ||
| But then there's also something more subtle going on here. | ||
| Because he talks about the Club for Growth. | ||
| Which if you don't know, Club for Growth is one of these big lobbying institutions founded by Grover Norquist, who's a pro-business libertarian. | ||
| And club for growth is like the mouthpiece of big business and and a big part of Accelerating this like so-called small government, you know low regulation low tax business environment agenda and And anyway, so Trump says, well these guys are globalist. | ||
| He says, I've been beating them for years, they're globalist, and so that's great. | ||
| But he also says something more subtle where he says they couldn't get away from China, Europe, Asia, and parts unknown. | ||
| And what's subtle here is, what is the line from all of the Republicans for the last five years? | ||
| What's the one thing they loved about Trump? | ||
| The one thing that Rex Tillerson and Mike Pompeo and Mike Pence and Tucker Carlson and Sean Hannity and James Comey and Time Magazine and The Journal, the one thing that they all loved, loved about Trump is that he reoriented American foreign policy away from the Middle East and against China. | ||
| That's the one thing. | ||
| That's the consensus. | ||
| That's the one thing that universally the entire Washington swamp loved. | ||
| They loved that he wants to go to war with China because they want to go to war with China. | ||
| They want another Cold War. | ||
| They want a military buildup. | ||
| That is what they want. | ||
| And who knows? | ||
| Maybe there's other reasons. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| But anyone in the military will tell you right now, and also anybody that pays attention will tell you that mysteriously, that is the consensus. | ||
| All these people that are about to announce for president, Pompeo, Haley, You know, even to the extent that Peter Thiel was a big player in the midterms, Tucker, who's a big influence in the GOP, these guys are all anti-China hawks. | ||
| And so, and it's very interesting because Of course Trump called out China as a cheat, which he was right about. | ||
| He pointed out that China was our biggest adversary. | ||
| We have this massive trade deficit. | ||
| They're our largest trading partner. | ||
| They're eating our lunch around the world. | ||
| They're reorienting the global supply chain away from America and towards them. | ||
| They've displaced us as the factory of the world, and they're the world's trading partner. | ||
| And they're also making inroads into Africa, into the Middle East, into Europe with 5G, with infrastructure, with that kind of thing. | ||
| So Trump pointed this out. | ||
| He pointed out that there is this competition for the future happening with China. | ||
| And he said that, well, we're going to just start playing the game. | ||
| We can win if we just start playing the game. | ||
| We're going to put tariffs on their goods. | ||
| We're going to call them out for manipulating the currency. | ||
| We're going to force them to work with us. | ||
| And that was successful. | ||
| He was successful until the pandemic. | ||
| And Trump said this. | ||
| He actually told me about this at the dinner. | ||
| He said, you know, they were very cooperative. | ||
| And then he said, after covid, they were acting like a bitch, basically. | ||
| And and that was true. | ||
| He was very effective at that. | ||
| But these guys don't want to make China play fair. | ||
| They don't see China as a competitor, which is a key term. | ||
| They don't see China as a competitor, or a rival, or even an adversary. | ||
| They see China as an enemy. | ||
| They see China as an existential threat. | ||
| Big difference. | ||
| And the thing is, we live in a world where there are going to be other centers of power. | ||
| And that doesn't mean that we want to necessarily facilitate that. | ||
| But it is inevitable that we are going to lose our relative preeminence over the world, which is really kind of a fluke. | ||
| It's a fluke that China has not been a world power for the last 500 years. | ||
| It's a fluke that America has been the sole superpower for 30 years. | ||
| It is a fluke of history that we've enjoyed. | ||
| This massive differential in power for the last 30 years. | ||
| That's why it's called the unipolar moment because it's totally fleeting. | ||
| It's inevitably going to end. | ||
| And so the point is China is going to rise. | ||
| Asia is going to rise. | ||
| Other countries are going to become rich. | ||
| They're going to invest their money and education. | ||
| They're going to build up their human capital. | ||
| Their human capital is going to build up their technological and engineering capability. | ||
| That is going to make their military sophisticated and well equipped. | ||
| We will have rivals in the world. | ||
| That's okay. | ||
| We can get along with them. | ||
| As long as there is diplomacy and communication, we can get along with other great powers. | ||
| It's been done before. | ||
| You know, the 19th century was a multipolar world. | ||
| There was no one power in the world that was more powerful than all the others put together, or even that much more powerful than the next greatest power. | ||
| You know, in the 19th century you had Germany very powerful, America very powerful, the United Kingdom very powerful, to a lesser extent France, Russia, Ottoman Empire, and there was peace. | ||
| There were no, with the exception of the Crimean War, there were no major conflicts from the Napoleonic Wars until World War I, with several exceptions. | ||
| So you can do that with diplomacy and communication. | ||
| You can get along and other countries can be powerful. | ||
| Other countries can be great. | ||
| And they can compete. | ||
| And that is, that's what you want to have happen. | ||
| What these neocons want to do is they want to go to war. | ||
| They want to push China. | ||
| They want to provoke China. | ||
| They do want a war. | ||
| Their dream is to bomb China. | ||
| Their dream is to bomb Russia. | ||
| They want regime change in China. | ||
| They want regime change in Russia. | ||
| They want world domination. | ||
| They don't want to share. | ||
| Anyway, so Trump called out China, but in a very distinct way. | ||
| He said, listen, I'm a patriot. | ||
| I love America. | ||
| China is doing what they're supposed to do. | ||
| They're working for themselves. | ||
| They're working for their own people. | ||
| I want to work for our people, and I want to beat them fair and square. | ||
| I want to do what they're doing to us. | ||
| To them, and I want to grow our economy, and I want us to have trade and everything, but it needs to be reciprocal, is what he said. | ||
| We can have free trade, but it actually has to be fair and reciprocal, which is actually not free trade. | ||
| Well, all these neocons get in, like Pompeo, and Tillerson, and Haley, and even Mike Pence, and all these other guys, and they're like, well, you're right! | ||
| We need to go to war with China! | ||
| And it's like, well, that's not what he said. | ||
| And anyway, so that's been the consensus then. | ||
| And there's even been articles written about this. | ||
| There was some article, I think, in the Atlantic, or one of those major publications, where they said Trump had a point. | ||
| Like, we have to be willing to acknowledge that Trump was right about some things, like China. | ||
| That was the example they used. | ||
| They said Trump called out China, and now everyone agrees, and overnight, that's the new consensus. | ||
| So, I mean, this is very real. | ||
| Now, when you watch the Tucker Carlson show, he doesn't call out Europe. | ||
| He doesn't call out our allies. | ||
| He doesn't call—because Europe is, like, a very important, integral part of our anti-China strategy. | ||
| We can't beat Russia plus China without the NATO alliance, without AUKUS. | ||
| Australia, UK, US. | ||
| So when Trump goes out in 2023 and says Club for Growth, the pro-business lobby, is globalist, they can't get away from China, Europe, and Asia. | ||
| This gets back to a view of the world which is not the great democracy against the evil fascists in China, the Islamo-Nazis, and the communists. | ||
| This gets back to the kind of populist, isolationist, nationalist rhetoric from 16, where Trump is saying, look, they're all our adversary. | ||
| Even these entangling alliances are taking a toll. | ||
| Forget about our rivals. | ||
| Look at our allies. | ||
| Look at how Germany is taking advantage. | ||
| Look at how South Korea and Japan are taking advantage. | ||
| Look at how all these countries that we consider a friend are taking advantage. | ||
| So when Trump goes out and says, and this is a subtle thing, when he says Club for Growth can't get away from China and Europe and Asia, because Asia includes all the TPP, TTIP, ASEAN countries, you know, Philippines, Vietnam, All of our allies that we expect to hedge our power against China. | ||
| He's calling out all of them. | ||
| He's saying Club for Growth is to embed with China, our principal adversary, as well as our allies, and that's a bad thing. | ||
| This is like... So, and not to read too much into it, but you know what? | ||
| That's actually really good. | ||
| And it's a subtle thing, but it's like he's still alive. | ||
| It's like Trump has been found at the bottom of like the Tower 7. | ||
| He's found at the bottom of the destroyed parking garage or whatever, an exploded building. | ||
| It's like we've been dragging the lake for days, no sign of life. | ||
| And then you see him floating out and you're like, throw him a life preserver. | ||
| I guess that's what it's called. | ||
| Throw him a floaty. | ||
| Throw him a pool noodle. | ||
| It's like he's still in there! | ||
| It's like 90s Trump, 90s Ross Perot, Pat Buchanan. | ||
| Like Trump is still in there. | ||
| Because that's Trump. | ||
| When he says the Club for Growth is in bed with Europe, no one else would say that. | ||
| Tucker would never say that. | ||
| Peter Thiel would never say that. | ||
| Well, maybe he would. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| But he wouldn't say that today. | ||
| None of these other guys would say that. | ||
| This is classic Trump. | ||
| And so Trump says, they know I won't play that game. | ||
| I am America first all the way. | ||
| So, in other words, he's not saying, like, democracy and NATO. | ||
| He's saying, look, it's America, man. | ||
| That's the only way we'll make America great again. | ||
| Ron DeSantis is a globalist. | ||
| So are his donors! | ||
| He's calling out Ken Griffin, who's a kingmaker in the GOP and all these Wall Street guys. | ||
| He says, Jeb Low Energy Bush was next to him last week. | ||
| Check his pa- It's almost like, hey, I mean, I hate to take credit, but this is exactly what I told Trump to do! | ||
| This is exactly what I said! | ||
| I specifically said, I said, dude, we love when you call him DeSanctimonious. | ||
| I said, he had it coming. | ||
| I said, he betrayed you. | ||
| He's out of line. | ||
| It was no class. | ||
| That was the wrong answer. | ||
| And Trump was like, you're right! | ||
| He was like, you're right! | ||
| Exactly! | ||
| Because I made him governor and I'm like, yes! | ||
| You did! | ||
| So don't listen to them! | ||
| Do not listen to Cernovich! | ||
| Do not listen to Scott Adams! | ||
| They are bitches! | ||
| We are your soldiers! | ||
| Do not listen to them! | ||
| We stand with you against DeSantis! | ||
| He sucks! | ||
| We love you! | ||
|

|
You know, that's what I told him. | |
| Not like that. | ||
| I wasn't all ramped up. | ||
| But I said, listen, I said, I love when you called him DeSanctimonious because he was out of line. | ||
| I said, and it wasn't even a big deal that he won because Rubio won the same percentage. | ||
| I said, and I said, I loved your true social go off on DeSantis. | ||
| I said, it was classic Trump. | ||
| I loved it. | ||
| That's what the base wants. | ||
| That's how you're going to beat him. | ||
| You know? | ||
| This is like what we've been asking for, for a long time. | ||
| And this is my specific call to action to the President. | ||
| When I met with, you know, when I had dinner with President Trump at Mar-a-Lago back in November, these are the things that we discussed. | ||
| And this is the advice that I gave to him. | ||
| And, you know, I just appreciate that he seems to be kind of picking up what I'm putting down. | ||
| So, like I said, I don't know. | ||
| I mean, it's a little bit... You know, I can tell that he's... Listen, let him cook. | ||
|
unidentified
|
All right? | |
| I don't think it's a perfect tweet. | ||
| I don't like, like, club for no growth. | ||
| Like, that's not as fresh as, like, little Marco. | ||
| But let him cook. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| Let him cook. | ||
| That's what I say. | ||
| Let him cook, alright? | ||
| He hasn't been on Twitter in years. | ||
| He's been with all these lames in the GOP. | ||
| Let the man cook. | ||
| Let him cook it up. | ||
| It's already pretty good. | ||
| But this is the kind of thing that we need to see. | ||
| And this is why I want there to be a competitive primary. | ||
| Because it's gonna create the best candidate. | ||
| You know? | ||
| And there may be other candidates that haven't announced that I think could be very good. | ||
| But the hope is that through the course of this competition, we will get the best nominee who's going to become elected and save America. | ||
| Because I feel like it's possible now. | ||
| I feel like with the introduction of maybe one new candidate and the prospect that Trump could really become great, I feel much better that we're going to get A great president, and we're going to get a great personnel, and it's really going to turn things around. | ||
| I do feel much better about it based on this, because, you know, what was terrifying was the idea that he still hadn't learned. | ||
| I was just, like, head in my hands, like, he just doesn't get it. | ||
| Like, he's not listening. | ||
| He wasn't listening then. | ||
| He wasn't listening in 2020. | ||
| He didn't listen now. | ||
| He didn't listen after Yale. | ||
| I'm like, it's over. | ||
| But when he puts this out, I'm like, on God, like, what? | ||
| He's alive? | ||
| I felt a disturbance of the force? | ||
| Like, hey, this guy's back. | ||
| And if there's even a little bit in there, and if he can develop that, and if this competition brings it out of him, the debates, these, because what they are is foils. | ||
| To have a Nikki Haley in the race, she'll never win, but she's a foil. | ||
| Same with DeSantis, he's a foil. | ||
| They're going to help Trump overcome himself and become what he needs to be to become the rightful king again. | ||
| It's like he's got to go through. | ||
| He lost his sword. | ||
| He lost his horse. | ||
| Now he's like Russell Crowe in Gladiator. | ||
| He's got to go back to square one and become the king again, become the general or whatever. | ||
| I hope that they're able to bring it out of them, and if not, then there are other options too. | ||
| Like I said, I don't know if I love the post in itself, but there's a lot of good stuff in there, and it shows that he wants to turn things around. | ||
| It shows that he knows it's not working. | ||
| That maybe this whole competition is going to bring the best out of him. | ||
| So that's that. | ||
| But I want to move on. | ||
| I want to take a look at our Super Chats. | ||
| And we'll see what you guys are saying about all this. | ||
| Let me take a look. | ||
| Very important. | ||
| Very important stuff. | ||
| Who else has given you this kind of commentary? | ||
| Nobody. | ||
| All right, let's take a look. | ||
| Let me just pull up my Super Chats. |
