In the dustbin of history. Go ahead. Well, well see what happens over. So dont have an official weather. Of course. If you have to leave it to the president , and i dont like to remind us, even though we know who you are, we have a lot of work to do honestly in america to get this use of our service is how divided really are were president choppers, got the folks out, but he created almost a Stronger Movement of people who were strongly resistant, so to speak. And they came out. Theres probably a lot of work to do. So make sure we do put it for free, but were not there yet. And ton, i think that it would be very welcomed by tens of millions of people if the political left and particularly the Democratic Party can stop voter shaming conservatives and republicans. I think that point, i think, you know, you can look at the results of the election, but you know, calling them deplorable xin races. Zina, fellows, i think that is in the dustbin of history too. What do you think . And absolutely not. Its incredible is how hard it is for the pollsters in the mainstream. Not to comment that this election was far closer than they ever predicted. I mean, donald trump received more votes than any incumbent president ever. And you know, this was an extremely tight apparent joe Biden Victory for about the same mark. I dont trump one by the 3 states. He won wisconsin and pennsylvania in 2016. So the idea that you know how 5 americans are, you know, hes racist horrible people is just fundamentally absurd. And thats just the message from the left. Costly that anyone who supports donald trump is a terrible, deplorable individual. Him in less it. When i look at the results here it, it seems to me that there is a realignment going on, particularly in the g. O. P. , where you have kind of a mixture of social conservatism and economic populism. I think thats a fair assessment. Go ahead with us. So some of thats happening, but what i see is youve got the standard republicans and democrats hating each other, making it sound like one side is going to totally destroy america, where as the other is going to save america. But mostly that is all style. When you look at the substance of the issues, when you look at trade policy, tax and spend policy wars in the middle east, the deficit spending and fire mentalism, Social Security, medicare, on most issues. The republicans and democrats have actually been quite moderate. I wish republicans or democrats would be more extreme on some of those issues. And of course im against many of the extreme things if they propose. But no, i dont think republicans have gone through a realignment. Theyve always been, you know, im a libertarian. I want free markets, i want low taxes, i want to cut Social Security and medicare. Republicans never do that stuff. And democrats as well. You know, i want to end the wars Civil Liberties in the war on drugs and democrats never seem to get that done either. Ok, well you know, when i think its really kind of interesting have been is that when you look at like medicare for all in issues like that the, theres many, if you look at the polls among republicans, a lot of people are for, i mean, i find it really, really quite remarkable that even if you look at it instead of just, you know, blue or red, you know, if you just look at people, theres actually a lot of consensus about what people want. But you know, in your party, you know, when you have, you hire all the candidates in the primaries for medicare for all. And then you give it the nomination to the guy and doesnt want it. Ok. And then also, you know, and so on. We had trump, he talked about this in 2016, but once he got into power, well, we cant do that. Ok. I mean, i find it just really remarkable. Its the Party Structures that are the problem. Its not the people, the people are out, not the chloral. Theyre not deplorable on either side because both sides really want a lot of the same things. Go ahead. Yeah. They are also shady because oh so you know, over have people when asked out to support it. We saw you before all care act. When you ask people for obamacare, overwhelmingly you say you support the Affordable Care act. They say they do point out is a message and it, i agree with record i heard recently were talking about the Georgia Senate race coming your way. The slogan here, you know, like the police and green. You dont medicare for all. Sometimes its no laughing erms turn left. Ok. I didnt come from the left. Sometimes turn the wall or something. And you know, you have, you know, i mean happens on both sides of the slogans and of course people away. They are awesome for me. Most people agree that yes or should be secure, should just write back and forth peacefully. We talk about, you know, building a wall. I have to be a wall on earth when you know that turn, so do it. And it just shows how, how divided really are by the president by that logic, you know, in terms of what i find really very, very disappointing. I consider myself a conservative, dont i . , i dont always think very much of the g. O. P. , but i think it was a real mistake on the left just to make it all out. Donald trump because all 3 of you talk about policy, but they didnt seem to be in the campaign all that much beyond sloganeering. Ok. And, and i think theres going to be a huge hangover, particularly on the left. You know that like what do we do now . Remember the candidates still in the 1970s . What do we do now . Because you know, it was all focused on one man and that one man did amazingly well. He probably didnt win. It probably wont be inaugurated. Or you can ignore that mass movement. Now im for a realignment, its in the cards because trump ran as a populist and he governed as jeb bush. Thats my disappointment. Go ahead and yeah, you know, i think that just to go back to the previous question, i think that the Republican Party absolutely does need to, you dont do one thing going from going so well on as he was not this, you know, warhop, republican president , people were so sick and while i think medicare for all isnt popular, people do recognize in america that we need to have coverage for things like preexisting conditions. And you know, to talk about that a lot. So i, for one, i just want to go on the record and say, i do think the Republican Party, we do need to change when it comes to things like those issues that are more populist then kind of the traditional conservative view that just isnt that popular when you look at the margins of the president last with millennial as well as women suburban women by but you know, going forward, i think look at all comes down to georgia and what happens in the senate races there. If we republicans can hold on to the u. S. Senate, its going to be a lot different conversation that were having in january than if democrats do, were going to get the senate as well as joe biden. You know, is confirmed as president. You know, wes is a libertarian. I, i have to probably think that youre, youre probably just as sick and tired of this woke politics rhetoric that just sucks all the air out of the room. When it comes to issues that affect all people, when youre sick, it doesnt remotely, doesnt matter if youre a republican or democrat or a libertarian. Go ahead with us. Well, if youre talking about health care in particular, this applies to other issues. When, when Ronald Reagan was running for president , he used to say government is the problem, not the solution. And he would spend quite a bit of time explaining how free markets and freedom wark donald trump is not really reflexive, only libertarian leaning or for small government, or for free markets. And so for the last 4 years, he hasnt spent any time educating and training the people and especially republicans themselves on, you know, what does it mean . How does freedom work with, with free markets, with less regulation, with lower taxes. How would it be easier for people to pay for their own health care and less . You know, if i could interrupt you, excuse me here. The day that donald trump was most unpopular as president is the day he signed his tax bill because most people didnt see that it affected them whatsoever. And its because hes surrounded by libertarian people thinking people in his administration. And i think that was when one of his greatest mistakes, thats my opinion. How do you react to the well, if you lower taxes, but you dont lower spending, then it doesnt accomplish much. Should just shift the burden away from the people who get the tax cut and as to everyone else who suffers from inflation. Donald trump, you raise spending from 4000000000 to 7, looks in one direction. It keeps going up where its amazing, republican or democrat, its kill, continues to do that. And i think thats, you know, i think when we see what we have here, kevin is a middle class revolt. I mean you have the choice, you can go blue or you can go red, but both all are angry about this. Ok, i personally, i think government should do things for people. Ok. I dont think it should waste money, but it should be for the public good. All right. And so, i mean, this is the choice we have right now to fund the police and, you know, lets just rhetoric, it doesnt mean anything when i get probably hurts people, the poorest people of our society. I mean, it really gets onto an attitude about what kind of how government should be used because its going to be used because theres, there is no doubt that that is they can 80209010 issue, go ahead. Why people overwhelmingly disagree, even in inner city neighborhoods. Oh, black voters and black and withdrew from a feared least they dont, dont support it. Or they do support of moving some resources to go, not just for traditional policing and maybe you know, social workers, Mental Health programs and version programs, things like that. Which i think a lot of people do squirm when its explained to them as you or our president trying to explain it to dont exactly say so it happened though both sides and i, i do believe its interesting because you talk about spending, it seemed to go up didnt really hurt down ballot. Very Susan Collins to be on the one question on the results of the 2020 elections. Because she has money is something from the 20th century, the 19th century in the 18th century and is being discerned so mediated or disrupted by bitcoin, which offers perfect price discovery. The price of big is perfect. Its it mimics nature in that way. Its like the photosynthesis of money. Its a perfect price discovery, the perfect market maker between risk and reward between consciousness and humanity. Its absolutely perfect and thats why people are running to it. Now in the shearling family is your media a reflection of reality in a world transformed what will make you feel safe . Isolation, community . Are you going the right way or are you being that guy would want to strip off his faith in the world corrupted . You need to descend to join us in the depths or remain in the shallowness was abundant. Make no certainly no borders. Im just not into nationalities. Summer heat. 2 commentary classes we can do better, we should know everyone is contributing way, but we also know that this crisis will not go on forever. The challenge is grateful to response has been so many good people are helping us. It makes us feel very proud that we are in it together. Welcome back to cross town where all things are considered. Im Peter Lavelle to remind you were talking about the results of the 2020 election. Ok, lets go back to end on here. I mean, i kind of have a diagram, i mean, for the program here of what the Democratic Party is right now. Its woke corporate america, the super rich and the professional women managerial class. Now if this isnt an opening to create a big tent for the Republican Party, i dont know what is, are you going to take that opening the lane is why wide open . Are you going to grasp it is . I think it could work. No, absolutely. I mean, if you go back to the eightys and ninetys, when you know conservative talk radio was really thriving and you know, Rush Limbaugh was, you know, building his audience and the extreme fringes of the country. But they were viewed by the middle worse always the right. It was always, you know, the right wing that was viewed in a lot of people became moderate democrats because they were so turned off by that, you know, socalled radical right. Now when you look at a o. C. , an ill han and a far left there is this enormous opportunity for this populist movement for donald trump and republicans to say, oh look word the mainstream or the moderate. Were the center right party. And we can build on that, and i sure hope that you know, we have enough people, our party can realize that. But, you know, unfortunately, im going to be all this because im a, i call balls and strikes. And i think there are a lot of people, the Republican Party who dont recognize how so its very obvious to me that youre right. Someone like Susan Collins manages to win in blue states and then you have other, you know, people like a roy moore who are, you know, terrible candidates. They cant even win a red state. And thats what, you know, the fringes on both sides never realize that these far left far right candidates are never going to actually, you know, i, you know, be popular beyond their little base of people. You know, when one of the issues that is always talked about is hardly ever dealt with. I mean, the amount of money spent on this election cycle is just absolutely phenomenal. It is just, it blows your in. In South Carolina, South Carolina alone, Lindsey Grahams home. He was the most Expensive Senate seat ever campaign or here. I mean, i wish if we took the money out of the equation here, how would it change our politics . Because its, you know, we have a republican and we have a democrat on the program and we have you and everyone knows my beliefs here. But if you took the donor class out of this, we would have a very different politics wittingly. Im not so sure thats the case i. Theres been many examples over the years of candidates spending millions or hundreds of millions of dollars in primaries and even in general elections. And that money only seems to affect the outcome by a couple of percent. I of course, i wish the government was less important, so people were less interested in spending so much money to win an election were regardless of which side theyre on. But i dont think the money, you know, you, you can spend money and get a certain policy passed that allows you now to do a lot of Construction Projects and you personally profit from that. But a lot of what goes on, i dont think has a lot of impact on the election results. So look, so the money, the total money doesnt really scare me, but it, when you look upstream, i mean, this is all an investment. Ok. I mean, there are so many things like ending foreign wars. I mean, that is a genuinely popular thing. Thing weve had 3 election cycles. You have 3 election cycles in a row, you know, saying end the war. But if joe biden is elected president is inaugurated as president january, i dont think thats going to change or why . Because of the donor class. I mean, i agree with you, i should have phrased my question, better about camp, you know, getting elected, you know, but essentially, you know, they have a end to both parties. That is, its such a cool, a corrosive thing because you can have an 80209010 issue. But once it gets to the very top, its the donor class that makes that decision to make though that a campaign year. Because thats an issue that both parties, including the libertarian party, probably thinks about. Go ahead, jim. Absolutely, im sorry, one that were maybe years rates over 100000000, you know, pretty handily. And, you know, either or even lead to consultants. One consultants, consultants going to be millionaires who are minted in that region. Oh, yeah, exactly. You know, you know, the c. E. O. Where somebody trying to restart your mind can try to raise a lot of money to mainly from outsiders and not get close to where we folks over see it in a lot of states. Mentioned order a couple times. Its only going to get worse, you know . Sure, sure. Outsiders coming in, but i think the takeaway is that it doesnt tell me now from lindsey graham, i want a certain kind of, they know their state better than these outsiders or even money is, i think, turned off. You know what youre referring to, were you know, the sarge talking about, they know it was better to find some who were and just buy these races learn from that. And if its all going to be here on the campaign outside money thats for sure and time. Sometimes republicans win. Sometimes democrats win sometimes and independent wins. But the consultants always agree and it will always remain. I find it really, really awful. Ok, and, and, and its the same thing. The only skin these people have in the game is their pocketbook. And i think thats really, that really corrodes politics and so on. Youre the republican on the party and im not going to let you off the hook here. Im looking at the results here and im looking across the board, except for an end of an educated white man. And i thinking, putting educated women the Republican Party didnt phenomenally well of best since 1960 before the civil rights act. Ok, what is the Republican Party going to learn from that . Because im sorry, republicans can be very awful, but they dont take on board something that is given to him on a silver platter. Here, this is a refund, nominal result. How many seats you pick up in the house of representatives . Probably keep the senate. This is, this is a, maybe not a way, but its certainly a strong ripple in the end in lieu of what was supposed to be a blue wave go ahead on. Well, yeah, absolutely. I mean, one thing that is kind of scary about, you know, the big 10 the populist message and everything you have to kind of really call the rubiks cube where you have to really walk a fine line, make sure youre not giving up one, you know, order for another while president trying to do great with, you know, the more rural parts of america and how those white blue collar voters. He also did extremely well with minority voters and far better than you know, romney and bush
