Now, if i dont get elected, its going to be a Bloodbath Reaction to Donald Trumps warning for the country if he loses another election will give you the context. Its important. Vladimir putin speaking publicly for the first time about the death of Alexey Navalny is Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu defying the white house buying hill, move forward with his Military Operation in rafah all right. 05 00 a. M. Here in washington alive. Look at capitol hill on this monday morning. Happy monday. Good morning to you. Im kasie hunt wonderful to have you with us this morning. Republicans and the Trump Campaign are once again trying to explain some pretty dark rhetoric from the former president over the weekend at a rally in ohio saturday, trump said that some migrants are quote, not people and quote he called undocumented immigrants who commit crimes, quote, animals, and he warned of a quote, bloodbath if he loses in november, the Trump Campaign says he was talking about an economic bloodbath for the Auto Industry. Were just going to play his full set of remarks and you can decide watch if youre listening, president xi and you and i are friends, but he understands who had deal. Those big monster Car Manufacturing Plants that youre building in mexico right now and you think youre going to get that, youre going to not hire americans and youre going to sell the cars us now were going to put a 100 tariff on every single car that comes across the line. And youre not going to be able to sell those guys. If i get elected now, if i dont get elected, its going to be a bloodbath for the whole thats gonna be the least of it. Its going to be a bloodbath for the country thatll be the least of it. But theyre not going to sell those cars all right. Alex thompson is National Political reported for axios and he joins me now. Alex. Good morning. Good morning. Have you so this obviously has been the subject of much discussion. I obviously republicans have jumped to the former president s defense and said, its very obvious from the clip, hes talking about the Auto Industry tree that said it is not uncommon for us to get comments like this from trump, where hell Say Something and you hear it kind of in isolation and he sometimes seems like happy to let people believe what they want to believe out of it. What did you hear in those remarks and what do you think americans should be focused on it was really interesting to see the full reaction includes the Trump Campaign, sort of weirdly put it in a statement that said, the Biden Campaign was putting roman plans e to shame with their selective editing of his comments, which were firsttime for that, ive ever seen roman plans key. And in a campaign statement, but the point being is what i think this little be obscured is the other language in those remarks that were also you could interpret inciting violence and thats why the bloodbath got attention is because it was part of a larger pattern, not just that this one speech, but if donald trump in general, he has incited violence before, the thing is that the very beginning of this speech, the starspangled banner was the starspangled banner sung by people in prison for january 6 for writing. And then he started his remarks, by the way, it was not in his prepared remarks. He started his remarks by saying that on day one, he is going to help those quoteunquote hostages. Now, if you or someone that has done violent acts on behalf of President Trump, hes out there saying, all and you write and honestly its not we covered this last week too. This is something that he does not infrequently at his rallies talked about this hostages, i think can we look and see if those comments are actually parked in this block here . I know we have them cut exactly what alex is talking about. Id love to show everyone well, they figured that out. Lets also talk about Something Else that the former president said, which was around his language, around migrants, which obviously since he came down that golden escalator, he talked about people bringing crime, bringing drugs. He called mexicans rapists this is even beyond that at this point. And i think we can show everyone that, he talks about migrants as being quoteunquote, not people watch if i had prisons that were teeming with ms 13 and all sorts of people that theyve got to take care of for the next 50 years, right . Young people that are in jail for years, if you call him people, i dont know if you call them people in some cases than not people in my opinion, these are animals. Okay . I mean, this is again, this is not language he has ever shied away from. An immigration has exploded as a major issue. Here. I mean, were working on kind of report. Its exploded on the New York Post has a cover of it about someone who reportedly, according to them, has hezbollah ties. Cnn, it hasnt confirmed it yet, so i dont want to dig into that too much. Obviously so this is swirling, is this dont trump is trying to win a General Election. In theory, does this help with that well, he clearly does seem, i mean, it is the most bizarre in normal times, you would say your General Election candidate, you want to pivot to the center. But in the last week, he has actually gone further and saying that he is going to help january people in jail for january 6. He has really leaned in on this antiimmigrant rhetoric. He keeps saying that theres going to be my mic, migrant crime is what hes calling it and basically, weve seen some documented examples of it. Laken riley, other incidents with police near city but to your point, he is not hes not dialing back the rhetoric at all. He is in fact going further and thats because i think his Campaign Sees that. Im seeing being seen as strong is more important than anything else. Yeah, lets show everyone what you were talking about. The very top of this rally in ohio, where he talks about january 6 hostages Ladies And Gentlemen please rise for the horribly and unfairly treated. January 6, hostages do you see the spirit from the hostages and thats what they are as hostages. Theyd been treated terribly, unbelievable patriots and they were unbelievable it you, its nr so there you go. I mean, thats just kinda let people here for themselves exactly what you were talking about in having been at the capitol on january 6, i sort of sun that this is where we are, but its sort of, it really reminds me of the many ways in which trump takes things that actually happen and insists Something Else happened instead. Yeah, well and we are talking about this before where the first time he did this was his first big route. Ive the campaign in waco, texas and its the first time when we saw him play the starspangled banner soundtrack. But again, whats so striking is that the Biden Campaign actually, for them, this is exactly what they want because the Biden Campaign believed that january 6 will be the Difference Maker in this election mike donilon biden top advisers has said this. So if your them, then donald trump is leaning in on january 6th saying, yeah, those people, what they were doing, they were patriots, what they were doing was right. And if youre the Biden Campaign that i mean, you saw joe biden say yesterday, this man wants another january 6. Yeah. Its a contrast. Couldnt be more clear, speaking of the Biden Campaign, you have some interesting new pointing out just this morning about the sort of, i dont want theyre not front of me is but theres a rivalry between current President Biden, former president obama. What did you learn absolutely. So they dont actually talk all that frequently, but behind closed doors, biden talks a lot about president obama and is constantly measuring his own performance against former president obama. Two people told me that in some instance hell say when hes talking about something that hes very proud of, hell say obama would be jealous of x right . And so what was really striking also when you go through the transcript of her interview special counsel interview Biden Spontaneously brings up obama to even brings up the fact that obama preferred hillary to him in 2016. That is a sore point. Yes, exactly. Talks about during the afghanistan debate in 2008, he was trying to quote unquote, save his and so it was just really striking to see how often he is thinking about obama when hes thinking about his own performance. Yeah, its fine. Its part of why i think two people pay a lot attention to David Axelrod when he says some of the stuff he says about the Biden Campaign, it it stings a little more because of it. I think alex, thank you very much. I really appreciate it. All right. Coming up next, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu valley, israel will invade rafah despite warnings from the white house.

A plan the details how the Israeli Military would protect the hundreds of thousands of civilians were, there right now. They fled their israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu confirming plans to press on with an operation despite mounting International Concern on cnn yesterday, netanyahu addressed direct calls for new leadership in israel that came from Senate Majority leader Chuck Schumer i think what he said is totally inappropriate its inappropriate for to go to a Sister Democracy and try to replace the elected leadership there. Thats something that israel, the israeli public does on its own were not a banana republic. Start a fringe government. It represents the policies supported by the majority of the people. If senator schumer opposes these policies is not opposing me is opposing the people of israel see in an international correspondent, Max Foster Or joins me now from london at max. Good morning. What did you make of those comments . He made to dana bash . That of course, about Chuck Schumers saying, hey, we need, we need a new leadership there because of course netanyahu is under a lot of political pressure at home. Yes. I think a if there was two democratic countries, one saying the others should have elections, you wouldnt have. Of course, here are similar criticism from the country where she was talking about hes talking about elections in israel, which is a democracy. So it would cause some sort of upset. Im sure within israel and interference. But at the same time, what youve got there is schumer, whos a big representative, isnt the of the Jewish Americans versus netanyahu and theyve, those two groups so ive always worked very closely over the years as a source of Israeli Government power really with the American Government through the jewish lobby, political lobby. And i think what you saw there is a very profound moment. Youve got such a big representative of that community. Theyre turning against netanyahu is a huge problem for him because its the source so International Diplomacy and power that access to washington and to put pressure on the white house. And now youve got these senior figures across the political divide really calling out netanyahu specifically in his policies yeah, i mean, i think that one of the great sources of strength for israel in terms of the us, mean, youre right in some in some ways, but really the fact that from a sort of geopolitical perspective, the Republican Party has always been very supportive of israel, also to the extent Jewish Americans are very active in Democratic Politics and largely jewish elected officials tend to be democrats. Here is not universally true basically but there has been this kind of universal support for israel across both parties that has really protected israel and that youre seeing that really start to fray here with this war. And part of that is what were looking ahead to which is this potential invasion of rafah, which netanyahu says hes going to continue ahead with, but reality is its going to put into harms way all of these people who have fled their thinking that they would be safe there what do you see in his wanting to move forward with that . And it clearly there is almost blanket International Opposition well, you know, hes found to defeat hamas. He believes hamas is holding out in raffa. Its their last holdouts, so he feels he has to go in there. Of course, a huge question about what happens to all the civilians more than 1 million civilians who were there. I speaking to someone at the World Health Organization today whos just been into rafah saying he just cannot get his head round where theyre all going to go. He says theres nothing prepared for them. Theres no shelter, theres no health care prefer prepared for them outside raffa and already in rougher, its absolutely desperate. Already. So no one can really understand how netanyahu can go in in carry out Military Operations without putting civilians in harms way, or if he has some sort of plan to get them out, is no one could really understand how thats going to work and its a real sign of defiance because so many of israels allies are saying dont do this, or at least be careful about the civilians. And if hes going in soon, theres gonna be a huge outcry in washington and all the european capitals as well. Yeah all right. Maxwells reports in london, max, thank you. Always good to have you all right up next, a landslide predetermined victory for russian president Vladimir Putin is giving him a fifth term in office. The post says putin extend his rule well, to 2030 he gave an extraordinary postelection address and he answered reporters questions and confirmed previous reports that he was prepared to swap jailed leader i Opposition Leader Alexey Navalny for russian prisoners being held in the west that was before navalny died suddenly in prison last month i should put bureau asked for mr. Navalny yes, he passed away. It is always a sad event. Need a few days before mr. Navalny passed away, some colleagues told me that there is an idea to exchange mr. Navalny person, people who are in prison in western khan countries, maybe you believe me, maybe you dont. The person who spoke to me had not finished his sentence yet. When i said i agree. But unfortunately, what happened happened. There was only one condition for him not to come back. Let him sit there cnns Clare Sebastian joins us live now from london. Claire, good morning to you. Obviously navalnys supporters say that putin killed Alexey Navalny. Putin has denied that. What did you make of this . Yeah, on the one hand, kasie, we never hear who didnt say navalnys name. This is almost an unspoken policy from the kremlin, so it was very significant that he turned around in this postelection speech and said it, i think it shows that hes emboldened clearly by this election. We just learned that they had 77 turnout with almost all votes counted. Thats a record in the postsoviet era. He himself seems to have gotten some 87 of the vote, which is a big landslide than hes seen before. But on the other hand, if you listen closely to what he said, he said the person telling him about this prisoner swap, he didnt even let him finish before he said yes, he said that the one condition of the swap for him was that navalny wouldnt come back. So i think does give you a hint of the fact that the kremlin did see navalny as a threat. Even in prison. And i think interesting if you look at the other side of this election behind the Landslide Victory for president putin, the lines that we saw forming at Noon On Sunday outside polling stations in russia and beyond heating a call from Alexander Valley himself before his death. And now of course, his team led by his widow. It does suggest that despite this very strong results for president putin, that the opposition now, much of it outside of russia can still make an impact. So its likely that hes still also watching whats going on here all right. Clare sebastian for us, live in london. Claire. Thank you very much. Are coming up here.

A live look at the Washington Monument on this monday morning. So pretty even even as the sun hasnt started coming up here yet in washington. Good morning. Thanks for waking up with us. Im kasie hunt so the last time the donald trump left office, you may remember there was an insurrection. If he loses again this november, he is using the word bloodbath to talk about that. Now, the context this is important here. He was talking about the Auto Industry, but still listen to the former president at a Weekend Rally in ohio were going to put a 100 tariff on every single car that comes across the line and youre not going to be able to sell those guys. If i get elected now, if i dont get elected, its going to be a bloodbath for the whole thats gonna be the least of it. Its going to be a bloodbath for the conscience thats gonna be the least of it. He says, the former president also in that speech said that some migrants are not people and quote the Biden Campaign was quick to respond to the former president s remarks. They said, trump quote, wants another january 6 with the American People are going give him another electoral defeat this november because they continue to reject his extremism is affection for violence and his thirst for revenge President Biden heads to nevada today for a campaign. Stop joining us now, gabby beer and bottom of the nevada independent along with marianna alfaro, politics, breaking News Reporter for the washington post. Ladies. Thank you very much for being here this morning. These remarks obviously have sparked republicans are defending trump in a somewhat predictable way democrats are saying, hey, look, you should believe that what the guy actually is saying, listen to his words. I think we have a slightly longer version of that clip of what trump said about bloodbath that we can play just because i do want to make sure that we have the whole context so our viewers can just watch it and decide for themselves. And then we can talk about it. Take a look at the longer version of the clip if youre listening, president xi and you and i are friends, but he understands the way i deal. Those big monster Car Manufacturing Plants that youre building in mexico right now. And you think youre going to get that, youre going to not hire americans and youre going to sell the car us now. Were going to put a 100 the tariff on every single car that comes across the line and youre not going to be able to sell those guys. If i get elected. Now, if i dont get elected, its going to be a bloodbath for the whole thats gonna be the least of it. Its going to be a bloodbath for the country thatll be the least of it. But theyre not going to sell those cars. So gabby, i mean, this is a pretty classic example of trump saying something that has very incendiary implications. And then trying to offer another explanation for it. What was your take away from how thats going to affect . Especially in he is trying to if hes going to win the General Election, he does need to appeal to independent voters im not sure that i hear a message in that for them. No. I mean, i think one thing youll ever hear republicans admit this, but i think the best thing that joe biden did for them, they didnt have to answer for a few years for trumps constant incendiary rhetoric i think now that hes back in front of people as frequently as he is, this is neither the first nor the last time youll have people on this show discussing something trump said over the weekend. Im sure that people are talking about. When i talked to republican strategists, i think they often talk about their line in 2020, was that joe biden was running a campaign from his basement. They made fun of that, but i think some of them wish that trump would they wish he would stop getting in front of people and doing the thing that made him made him trump, made him get his appeal, which is saying these things that can be dehumanizing, that can in the case of this bloodbath comment, can border on potentially authoritarian. And that he would sort of moderate himself, run to the general. But i think weve seen since 2016, thats not something hes been interested in. Doing. So lets show the other sort of incendiary comment that came during this rally, which was him talking about migrants, specifically who committed crimes, which ill also show you how that thats what republicans are saying in terms of trying to defend the comments from trump. But lets watch what trump had to say about migrants if i had prisons that were teeming with ms 13 and all sorts of people that theyve got to take care of for the next 50 years, right . Young people, theyre in jail for years. If you call him people, i dont know if you call them people in some cases than not people in my opinion, these are animals. Okay . So lets just clarify. People are people. However marianna, this is of course, part and parcel to i mean, this is what donald trump has been doing since he stepped onto the national stage. Yes. I mean, we heard him look bright and clear back in 2015, 2016, when he was calling mexican rapists and saying, im a lot of these similar terms that hes been using ever since the thing about this is that the dehumanization is such a key component of this. And just rallying to the base, remind that theres others coming in and hes spoken about Acquittal Khan Innovation before hes warning people that you know, if you dont vote for him, the countrys not going to look like the way youre used to seeing it. And thats a lot of though, whistles have been when hearing thanks again for years. Itll be interesting to see how the Biden Campaign continues. Touching back on these comments. Hes made because they tried to do that contrast right between like trump issuing all hes like remarks that are very incendiary and hurtful to a group of People Versus Biden being the uniter. We saw this happened last week too, when he was making fun of bidens stutter, then biden came out and talk to, you . Im boy, with a stutter and, you know, trying to use that contrast or makes you know, how biden is going against trumps records. Well, i mean, immigration is particularly challenging issue for the president. But this is one way that i think they, they see a clear contrast that they feel like americans are willing to hang with them on, right . They dont use the dehumanizing language. Lets take a look at how a couple of republican senators tried to defend both of these comments over the weekend. Watch no say first, he was speaking about the possibility of criminals been among the immigrants. And those are the people he was saying may not be people if you will, with regard to the auto workers that he was talking to he is showing them or hes telling them what has been an economic downturn for them so gabby, i mean, to your point now, with with donald trump as their nominee and the party pretty firmly coalesce behind him. They are going to have to start answering for this stuff. Absolutely. Yeah. There will be on the sunday shows is talking about this. Im sure every sunday its less last year he talked to about immigrants are poisoning the blood of the country. And so this is just one other comment at a long line of comments about immigrants that im sure were gonna be discussing throughout the campaign. There is one person, gabby, who has not lined up between behind former president donald trump. And that is his former Vice President , mike pence, who also was on over the weekend talking about and explaining this. Lets watch a little bit of pens it should come as no surprise that i will not be endorsing donald trump this year during my president ial campaign, i made it clear that there were profound differences between me and President Trump on a range of issues said, and just our difference on my conscience institutional duties that i exercised on january the six, donald trump is pursuing and articulating an agenda that is at odds with the conservative agenda that we governed on during our four years. And thats why i cannot in good conscience endorse donald trump in this campaign gabby, its obviously he says its about more than just january 6 but theres now a contrast between mitch mcconnell, who broke with trump after january 6, but has since gotten on board and my pence who says, look, im not doing that. I am not doing that. Im not sure i would have predicted that this is how this played out, especially considering mike pence did spend those four years with trump. I mean, theres plenty of footage of him basically gazing adoringly at the former president. But then also there were, there was a mob of people who threatened to hang right . What do you make of how pences handling this . I mean, i think mike pence absolutely. I think the red line for him was clearly his boss threatening violence against him quite realistically, i think the difference between mcconnell and pence is that mcconnell is looking forward and thinking even though he wont be though party leader, if the majority leader, if republicans take back the senate theyre going to have to work with donald trump, but i think theres increasing recognition among senators that if trump wins, theyre going to have to work with them on a whole host of issues. A lot of them are interested in 202051. A lot of the trump tax cuts expire. Theyre gonna have to renegotiate a lot of policy in that arena. And so thats going to have to be a functional relationship whereas Vice President pence, his, his campaign for president and it didnt pan out. And hes i think a bit more free to speak his mind indeed. All gabby buren by moran alfaro. Thank you both very much for being with us this morning.

Vladimir putin has claimed a Landslide Reelection victory in the russian president ial election style event, the result means he will be in power until at least 2030 while touting his victory in the predetermined election, putin took aim at what he calls quote, the socalled democratic systems and quote, of the United States do was nightmare me. But if you would like to know if our elections are democratic or not, i think they are democratic in some countries, for example, in yours, can you consider it democratic . To use the administrative resources . In order to attack one of the president ial candidates. In the us. Using at the same time, the Judicial System we dont have a preference for any of the us president ial candidates, which we will work with whomever the voters put their trust in who sounds like donald trump, putin sounds like donald trump, joining me now is contributing writer for the atlantic and the author of the new book fluke, chance chaos and why everything we do matters. Brian class brian, good morning. Thanks for being here. Good morning. Thanks for having me. So brian, you write in your most recent piece that we should not call what happened in russia, an election we should call it an election style events they explain well, i think that putins game is to try to get legitimacy both in the domestic sphere and the international one. And i think everyone understands that this is an election style event because its not actually an election, its not democratic at all. People voted. But the main Opposition Leader died recently in a russian prison. Theres no free press, theres no freedom of expression. None of the Democratic Institutions exist in russia. So anytime you have this style of voting, its clearly rigged from the beginning. And we should validate it by calling it an election. Its an election style events because it has this sort of charade of voting and campaign. But none of the underpinning aspects of democracy brian, can you help me understand why and help our viewers understand why its so important to putin to put on this show that the election represents yes. So theres a few reasons why dictators hold elections and then rig them. The first is, is that they want to silence the opposition. So if you have a Landslide Victory like this, it looks hopeless. And when people are in a close contest, if this election style event had ended with 534077 verdict instead, the opposition would be emboldened and because its so lopsided, people think do i want to risk my life for something thats a hopeless gambit. Its also a way to figure out whos loyal to you, right . Its a Loyalty Detest both for lieutenants who are senior and the governments, and also for ordinary citizens to force them to publicly display loyalty to you. So dictators arent trying to fool that many people, no one really believes in russia. This was actually a competitive election, but its still something to trick to play a political game and to claim on the International Stage with a smirk, i would know that, oh yes, im a legitimately elected leader of russia and putin is trying to do so. Brian, let me ask you about and we heard we heard putin. Theyre basically saying that the us Judicial System is rigged, which is the argument that donald trump is making about his own court cases then we had these comments from donald trump over the weekend at a rally in ohio. Watch were. Going, to put a 100 tariff on every single car that comes across the line. And youre not going to be able to sell those guys. If i get elected now if i dont get elected, its going to be a bloodbath for the whole thats gonna be the least of it. Its going to be a bloodbath for the conscious so brian, the Trump Campaign is trying to explain that away as him talking specifically about the Auto Industry, do you buy that . Well, i think regardless of that one comment, this is a long pattern that trump has had of using incitements and violent rhetoric throughout his campaign him for goodness sake, the beginning of that Campaign Rally started with trump saluting what he called the january 6 hostages listen into a National Anthem rendition that they saying into the phone in jail well, and then saying that he would basically release them upon becoming president you have to give him an unbelievable benefit of the doubt every single time he does this, its part of his strategy. And he already inspired a violent mob on january 6, 2020, once the risks of violence around this auction are enormous trump, is pouring gasoline on the fire constantly. Mean you started this Reelection Bid in waco, texas on the 30th Anniversary of that tech so these are the kinds of things where lets take the quote as it is, but its part of a larger universe of incitement to violence. And that is something very, very dangerous. And Trumps Campaign yeah, lets, lets just show everyone exactly what you were talking about. This is from the top of the rally in ohio about the january 6 hostages watch Ladies And Gentlemen, please rise for the horribly at unfairly treated january 6, hostages do you see the spirit from the hostages . And thats what they are as hostages. Theyd been treated terribly unbelievable patriots and they were unbelievable patriots and our and lets just call them what they actually are, which is criminals. There are people that have been convicted by the Justice System here in the us. I mean, i was there that day at the capitol complex and i every time its almost an outofbody experience to listen to that kind of thing. What is he doing when he does this well, i think hes creating a sort of structure of permission for his supporters to engage in violence and to also think about things like january 6 is completely legitimate political action, right . Im he calls them patriots. I mean, the people who are in jail are not people who just wandered into the capital by enlarge these are people who attacked Police Officers and they were seeking to overturn a democratic election that trump lost to install someone to be effectively in authoritarian leader because he was unelected. And i think thats sort of rhetoric is some thing where you cannot explain it away with saying this quote was taken out of context. Hes hes unapologetically saying that he would free them from prison. He praised this is a support are watching that doesnt have to read between the lines to figure out the message trump is sen. And hes saying this is the kind of stuff that i approve of and endorse that is so dangerous heading into what is going to be another contentious election in the United States definitely contentious, brainless. Lets talk briefly about your book. Im actually very excited to read it. Ive redone can be excerpts here. And it kind of got very, very down into it. You say that there are flukes that define history basically and the one that you argue may have given Us Donald Trump is the joke that obama cracked at a white house correspondence dinner. I was in the crowd when this happened. I can see the top of trumps head. Lets show everyone, remind them what that is we all know about your credentials and breadth of experience for example no seriously, just recently in an episode of Celebrity Apprentice you didnt blame little john or meatloaf you fired gary busey these are the kind of decisions that would keep me up at night i couldnt imagine. I actually greeted. I spoke to trump on that night and i would not have imagined that however many years later he would be the person that was being invited as present United States to that dinner. Explain how this fits in with your book the book is basically making the argument that theory applies to our social world. And so the idea, whether its completely true or not, we dont know because we dont know whats in trumps head, that a joke could have triggered him to run for president is something that is its how the world works, right . But maybe if the joke hadnt been written, maybe trump doesnt get angry at obama. Maybe he doesnt make a sort of rolling back. Llamas achievements. The center of his presidency and so on. But also that evening, bomber was ordering the Special Forces to go into have rather pakistan to kill us up. Bin laden and gamma queen, his presidency on it. And that could have turned out slightly differently depending on some arbitrary slightly random forces. So we had this narrative that we apply to history and to politics that everything is neat and tidy story. And a lot of times jokes matter, and personality matters and arbitrary forces matter. And i think were living with something some of that today with with trumps presidency and the total chaos that was embedded within it. And also going into 2024, i dont know whos going to win that election because a lot of stuff is going to happen and that we cant predict before november and thats the way the world actually works. If anything, it feels more unpredictable than its ever been. Bryan class. The book has fluke, can fans chaos and white everything we do matters. I really appreciate your being here. I hope to come back all right. Lets turn now to sports. March madness is here. Time to start filling out your brackets and the womens tournament. Number one seeds are undefeated. South carolina caitlin clark, and the iowa hawkeyes, along with usc had texas. Andy scholes with me not to help sort out which of the mens team have best chance of winning it all . Andy, good morning. This is awesome. Casey. Happy bracket monday always the to fund day. Start staring at this thing, trying to fill it out, get your paper and pen. So i got some notes for you to try to help you, because everyone likes to try to find an upset. Maybe find this in a rayleigh. Its always been to say brag that i did that, but if you want to win your bracket pool, its all about trying to find that champion, right . And theres a staff that can help you do that. Its called ken palm. It measures a team hes offensive in deepens of efficiency in every single champions since 2002 has been top 40 and offense top 22 in defense. So who qualifies for that right now, youve got houston look on purdue, auburn arizona, tennessee, North Carolina, and market. Those are the only 800s as of right now that could win the national title. And theres some good teams missing, right . Well, let me tell you why creighton just missed out. Theyre not good enough in defense right now, i would say clearly not good an offense even though their defense is spectacular, kentucky, their defense not even close to being able what i want to title according to ken palm duke, their close. But as of right now for indicated palm could not win. So what others, some trends we look at last 19 champions have been in the top 12th in the week six ap poll, kind of a quirky stat, but whos not here all burn. Theyre not there. Now, you call and theyre than top overall. See the favorites when it all with since 1974, these are the only two teams that have been able to win backtoback titles, duke in the 90s, florida and the 2000s, winning backtoback tournaments is a very the hard thing to do. Can day in hurley and the huskies do it. They could, but you might not want to pick them just because of how hard it is. Now, if you lost your first conference tournament game theyve never got a team has done thats never going on to win the national title. That happened to tennessee in the sec tournament. So you can cross them off. Take a look at this map louk line down the middle of the country tree every single champions is 1997 and has been east of that line, arizona. Theyre on the wrong side. So what can we do with all this information . Lets lets do some just going to ask you for this paragraphing, andy cross off arizona. Yeah. Okay. Exert on the wrong side of line, tennessee lost their first conference title game. Auburn wasnt in that week six, paul, im crossing off yukon just because i think its so hard to win backtoback titles. So you got houston, purdue, North Carolina market casey, who shouldnt you pick one seeds when the majority of the time since 1979, 26 times a one seat is one. And if youre like me, casey and you went to a school that is a wannsee its like the houston cougars. Thats where ill go with you all the way. But youve got time. Hopefully you took some notes, brackets are due thursday. Did go through them very quickly. Piccolo, youve got houston for new what are the rest lets see. I said, houston for North Carolina, market. Those are the four scenes. I would hone in on to have is one of the i can okay. Excellent excellent. Im gonna if i if i win, i will often share the winnings with his, credit me, write any thank you. I really appreciate it. Say tomorrow. All right ahead here. Donald trumps chilling prediction for america.
