acquiesced and played along with things that they normally wouldn t have, largely because of donald trump who was at the time for four years president and also, of course, a force in the republican party. you saw this firsthand. your relationship with kevin mccarthy fractured. he told you about his call with trump the day of the insurrection, almost two years ago today. and trump had refused to call off the rioters from the capitol and trump said something to kevin mccarthy like, maybe they care more about this than you do, kevin. kevin mccarthy wouldn t share that conversation. reportedly you told the story and reportedly he got mad at you. then mccarthy pops up al mar-a-lago. i got to tell you, this feels like we re going into where are you going here? my point is how much do you think kevin mccarthy is responsible for this madness by acquiescing? we talked to congressman dave joyce earlier.
each one of those was uncomfortable for a ceo i ve known more many years. in china, he doesn t have a good answer for acquiescing on taking down the air drop capability other than he had no choice. in the case of parlor, it was very uncomfortable because, well, tim was giving me assurances that apple would not put its thumb on the balance between conservatives and liberals and free speech. and that he would be switzerland. clearly in the case of parlor and he and amazon were no switzerland. at a time when that was the number 1 app growing like crazy and the chosen one for conservatives, it was taken off and stunted in a way and still hasn t recovered. so those were some of them. but we also talked about the china threat and a sense of cyber and apple s need to maintain yours and my privacy.
wrong, this is why we have to call this out. i am glad we re talking about the conspiracy theory, because usually we ignore them and they actually grow online. it s ludicrous. i d like to see some semblance of humanity. i d like to see every republican candidate and elected official say you condemn this attack, that s really basic, say you condemn the attack. but secondarily, recognizing the fact when you convince people an election was stolen, convince people that there are lizard people that drink babies blood, i m not even joking, that s actually what a lot of folks believe, eventually you ll find somebody that acts on that, because frankly we ve been raised in a country to believe that if your government is not representing you, if it s truly tyranny, you re going to have a revolution. some of these people are convinced this is true tyranny and it is incumbent on us as leaders to just stand up and say you can t do this. this is wrong. if you don t do it, by the way, your silence i
the hammer attack of an 82-year-old man and the assassination attempt, perhaps, if she were home, speaker pelosi. we re not talking about election or vaccine conspiracies, this is speaked out against the attempted murder of an elderly man. why is it so hard for republicans to do that? because we re close the an election. in the new view on the extreme is you don t ever admit defeat, never back off. when elon deleted his tweet, people were like you re acquiescing to the left-wing mob, i want to make it clear by the way, liz and i are not courageous. there s no strength in this. we re just surrounded by cowards. it looks like courage when it s your bare duty. some of what you ll see on the conspiracy right is that, well, look, back in 2013, he was a nudist or something or he was a bernie or whatever it was.
women in their lives and some of them on unemployment so on and so forth and you talk about the diversity lanes. black men in particular, they were engaged in the work force, they wanted to be part of the work force. we re seeing men in particular sit down. why is that? i mean, it takes everybody to make that american dream come true in your household. we work together on that as a team. whether it s your brother, sister, mom, dad, husband or wife, whatever it is. if people are sitting down and just kind of acquiescing to the american dream is for someone else, that changes us as a country. emily: and you have thoughts specifically. lisa: i mentioned before the red wave has been here and fundamentals for a red tsunami looking at inflation and record gas prices and historical norms of the president s party losing 29 seats in the first election not willing to add a president under 40% in the approval
