Unite, we are unstoppable. We are in the middle of a war in this country. It is between those of us who love this country and a fringe minority who hates the United States of America. I will join with anyone to do good, but with no one to do bad. Can you think of any time in history that the people who were in that string were the good guys? We need each other to survive. Pay for it by the libertarian unity pack. All I ask is, if we have to give these bastards our lives, we give them hell before we do it! The tragedy of our day is the climate of fear, which we live in. One thing about the Salomon brothers who are holding collapsing. I'm going to ask the congressmen to withdraw that climate and tell us that he's releasing that. We have to not let anyone ask, but I don't know what I said. I do not have sexual relations with everyone. Bible chants, that search people we put back. We're possessed of weapons of mass destruction. I love the facts, we're guried off by it. I can't handle the truth. Why? Why? Why? Remember, that's what we've got to all this good. We are still fear! We have to say yes to you. We have to say yes to you. We're just going to walk into the water. We are in that 30-day ready war. We're just going to walk into the water. We don't like us but together we'll go water, and then earn the fresh, fresh, fresh, fresh. Right, more than you know, come on. It's a big flow. You ain't in it. You ain't in it. Ladies and gentlemen, welcome back to The System Is Down. That's where you are, the place where we talk about things like conspiracy, politics, religion, all the things that are happening in the world, all the things that you're going to... We're going to convince you to bring up around the Thanksgiving dinner table next month and make it all fun and family festive. It's October, which means it's October's surprise time. We've got some October surprises for you, some big, juicy, fancy October surprises. But I can't go through the news alone, so I'm joined as always by the great Dave Casey. Dave, what's up, Theo? My bro. How's it going, man? Good. Good. I still am just kind of waiting. We're going to talk about some October surprises, but I'm still just waiting for something to happen. I feel like the last few weeks have been like just waiting for that something, and so far. You're too desensitized, bro. We've had two assassination attempts, and now we're just like, "Yeah, what?" What's an assassination attempt amongst friends, though, you know? Come on. It's 2024. You've got to step your game up and do a little bit better than that. Like, sir and fries at McDonald's, but we're going to get to that and much more in just a moment before we deal. I've got to remind you guys about yourselves. People like John Winchester, Bob Seifert, Trucks for Robots, up in Jacob's Pangea, Sean Van Beaver, how Carolina, NoTread, Zach, Meredith, Kimberly, Jim Ben, Brian, Justin, Silas, Joey, Perry, Adam, Donald, Matthew, Leah, Daniel, Sean, Luke, Picard, Stoney, SDG, Level 0, Stefan, Rick, Javari, Ryan, Tim, Howie, Nathan, and a bunch of others. If you want to get your name on that list and have it read incorrectly some day, go on over to patreon.com/TheSystemIsDown, where you'll get more weird, more offensive, more weekly content, yes weekly, including Diggs. We're going to do it after party day, and we've got another spicy question just like we did last week. Check out last week's where we asked the big spicy question. Is Ian Carroll a Fed? We got another one like that for you this week, so stay tuned and get in there at patreon.com/TheSystemIsDown. Now, now, shout out to Kojima made me gay. Dance, Dance Moss doesn't see you, but I see you. I don't, I don't see you. I guess it's probably a homophobic thing if I don't see you and somebody made you gay. I don't know what it is, but I have never seen that name before. I think I saw a glimpse of it when you, because I had it in mind since you mentioned it last week, but yeah, I still have no idea what you talked about, Dave, and that's how it's going to stay. That's right. Thanks for hanging in there, Kojima made me gay. Now, Dave, is there anything new in the neck of the woods of yours, Delaware? It's a great state. I got a tip today from a Republican insider in the state of Delaware and said, "The Deshawna Neil will be debating her Republican counterpart on Monday, so I might go out to that and see if I can't yell demon at that lady." We'll see. Yeah, just yelling demon on a megaphone outside the building. Just demon, demon, and either one of you can take it if you want. It's fine. Just demon, mostly you, but you know. Yeah, exactly. Well, Dave, there's been some steering on the internet, and we don't, we're not like one, but I try not to be one of the drama pages, or drama YouTube channels that only talks about other channels and other channels drama and starts feuds with people, and I don't want to do that, but every now and then when something happens that I think is worth a discussion, I decide that we should discuss it, because that's my show. Do you see this whole Tim Poole stuff debacle? He had a bit of a meltdown a couple nights ago, and I guess a change of heart there after. Did you catch any of that? I didn't watch it. I listened to it this morning so that we could talk about it, but yeah, all thing. Okay. Well, yeah. I've got a couple clips here. I don't want to spend a ton of time on it, but I do think there's some things worth note here. Now, Tim came on his show two nights ago and out of nowhere, seemingly out of nowhere, I guess it's not just out of nowhere, said that he was done, and he was quitting Tim cast IRL and shutting it down, which is, you know, it's a big deal because they've been a bit of a staple for a good four or five years in the, I mean, a lot of our friends have been on their show, and they've helped boost a lot of cred for a lot of, you know, names like, you know, your Dave Smiths, your Josh Smiths, your Michael Wrecktenwalds, and even invited people like Chase Oliver for what it's worth, but yeah, so he is having some issues and he seems to be having issues primarily with staff, but let's just watch a bit of the beginning clip again, I'm not going to spend a ton of time on it. It's like a two and a half hour long episode or something, and we'll just watch a few. You know, ultimately what it comes down to is we had our like, I don't know, 12th studio failure this morning. The new one. Yeah, the new studio failed. And you know, my attitude with that is kind of just like, yeah, if we can't make cameras in a computer work, and despite all the previous failures we've had, there's not a single person here who can make sure that either the studio is operating or secondary studio is operating, we've gone to a point in the company where everyone's kind of just kicked their feet up and said, I'm doing what I need to be doing. And then that just means I'm Sisyphus pushing the rock up. The problem is people are sitting on the rock. You know what I mean? Yeah. Yeah. So basically Tim seems to have suffered from getting too big too fast. And yeah, it's interesting because if you go back a year or two, I remember Tim talked about like his business model and everything and the way that he tries to keep it chill, like people will be motivated to do their job, you know, I'll pay you a salary as long as the work gets done. Don't care how you do it. That type of thing really laid back environment it sounds like. And he's got a little bit of a commune there that everybody lives on or a lot of them do, several of them do at least. And it just occurred to me that he was running kind of a socialist business structure on a small scale level where it's like, oh, pay you and everybody gets, you know, they get paid well and everybody's taken care of and you show up and you show up and then fast forward a couple years and he's like, nobody wants to do any work. And I mean, there's a couple layers to this because like, I mean, first off, it's weird that it's two weeks before the election that all of a sudden he had this change of heart that I can't do this anymore. I mean, he just had like Donald Trump on his show and he's had like Roger Stone and a bunch of big names recently for him to just be like, well, no, it's too much. It must be really bad. You have to assume that the employees are really, really shitty if he would just be willing to throw in the towel and it's also, I'll let you talk in a second, David, get a couple points out. Get it out. Yeah. It was also weird because he had on a couple of guests, one being Dave Landau, who seems like he was supposed to be there for a different, just a normal conversation, then he ended up getting roped into this because Tim was like, I don't feel like doing an episode, I guess we'll just do this, which he thought it would be a dick move to not do an episode. I think it's more of a dick move to drag Dave Landau onto your therapy session. And also this kid, I don't remember his name Raymond or something, some guy that works for Tim that just sat in, I've only seen him like a time or two outside of this. So I don't think he's been around for all that long. Just drag him in and basically it's Raymond sitting there begging to keep his job, Dave Landau, trying to make the best of an uncomfortable situation and then, and so on, but what were your thoughts, Dave, on all of this? I had a lot, man. Many of which were just, you remember when Crowder was going through all that stuff with Daily Wire and we were just beginning to talk about starting a media company and we were like, we need him to listen to this shit because there's a lot of valuable information. Sure. Well, that was definitely in the corner the whole time, there's some things to avoid and you know, maybe some, you know, different paths to go down. Don't hire anybody. That's what you're saying. Don't hire anybody. And definitely, like you said, don't grow too fast for your operation because this will inevitably mean he had a result. In addition to Tim cast R.L., he had like the, the Daily Show that he was doing two hours in the morning, the nightly show that was three hours at night, well, two hours plus the after show, which is another hour. The Friday culture war show is chicken city thing, castle vlog, cast castle vlogs, skate barks, music, music videos, documentaries, groundbreaking technology and like website building. He was working on video games. He was working on opening a coffee shop, skate shops, all these things like kudos. And I've for the last few years been like props to you for having this much like drive. I don't know how you do it. It turns out he doesn't necessarily do it all or can't do it all. And so I think it's worth noting he, he said on right after he got in trouble for taking those millions of rubles, he said, the FBI just contacted me and I'm going to go meet with them. So BRB, I'm going to go talk with the feds. And then like three weeks later, he's like, you know what guys, I think it's just time that I shut this down. Nobody's fault of mine. So just I'm putting that out there. I thought the FBI thing was a joke, but I don't remember much about it. Maybe it was, but he definitely tweeted that and people were like, dude, don't talk to the feds, but he did anyway. And my other thought behind this man was that, okay, you can do a lot with hired guns. You can, you know, you've played music, right? You can just go out. If you have like, if you're a great songwriter, you can just hire people that are great at guitar, great at drums, great at the bass, you can hire engineers, the best in the industry. But if you're not in a band with people who are true believers in what you are trying to do, that believe in the art and the purpose and why we are here, then you will inevitably come up with something like this. And ironically, Ian Crossland comes in the door, like, hold up. That's next. We'll just go ahead and play the clip and go ahead before he does. He gives the only libertarian lesson throughout the entire two and a half hour show or whatever, which is, hey, man, I don't know if you're going to like pay somebody an hourly rate. Maybe they'll just give you that much work. And then like, you know, you had to incentivize. I thought that that was kind of cool, but yeah, there's some lessons in there. It's very kind of you. I had a different takeaway from Ian Crossland on this episode because after an hour and a half of Tim complaining that his employees weren't, we're just kicking their feet up and nobody really cared at all to do the job. They just wanted to, you know, have the fun. Then Ian wakes up and sholes in an hour and a half late. My failure. I can't make it work. I get it. But when those projects result in me being unable to do the core show, which pays the bills. Then it's just like we get, we're going to stop. Yeah, you got subscriptions, subscription models are where it's at because I missed it. No, that's the wrong one. It's the wrong one. We want the entrance because that's that was my favorite part of the episode. Did one show and 50. We recently put it anything so nobody knows we're there, but I'm like, what is this? Oh. Ian, Ian's here. Welcome, Ian. Hey, what's up, dude? He must have just turned in and heard what's going on. Were you sleeping the whole time? Okay. Dave. You need a microphone, Ian. My brother's name is Michael, though, so that was it. Brandon, Dave, when? Yeah. Are you asleep? I was. I thought Hannah Clarence and Sheamus were going to be here. So I was like, well, I guess it's a full house. We'll take the night off. Half-asset. I was having a dream that I was playing music with Nick Fuentes, man. It's always like, hey, do you know who I am? So, again, this is an hour and a half into a very serious conversation where one guy's begging to keep his job. Tim is trying to shut the whole thing down and Dave Lando is there trying to play Dr. Phil and Ian walks in, screaming about how he just woke up in the middle of the night during the show and woke up from a dream with Nick Fuentes playing guitar and then he goes on a rant about how they need to just change the format. He seems to be on something that or he was very, very sleepy, but yeah, it was quite glorious. Dave, I know that you had a different takeaway from that, but I don't... Nothing against him, nothing against Ian either, but it was kind of a shit show all around. When I heard that, I was like, I kept waiting for Tim to go, dude, are you serious right now? I really did. I felt that. Man, there was so much, and I want to talk about how Tim is fully within his right to make these decisions and, you know, I actually see the utility behind a lot of it, makes a lot of sense, but to just come out and go, it's because I had to pick up the slack for all these people and like, dude, you're the only multi-millionaire. Yeah, that's why... When you're the only person hiring people, you're 100% of the responsibility for the hiring and firing. If somebody's not doing their job, why are you hiring them, why aren't you firing them? Ian Crossland does not have to take Tim cast IR seriously, in fact, he should not. He should not. Tim needs a little bit more of that, a little bit more of like the true believer that Ian has, and you need to have more fun, and you need to hire a CEO because you are a multi-millionaire. So every time he talked about, oh man, I've been saying for months that this computer needs to be fixed, call the fucking geek squad, bro, you're the millionaire. You know what I mean? No sympathy for you as far as that, but everything he was saying about, hey man, I'm just doing this too much. I'm burning the wicked both ends and I'm starting a family and stuff. That makes perfect sense, but you don't need to throw everybody under the bus with proper legal ease, and you know, oh, I'm pushing this boulder up the hill, shut up, shut up. No, you're not. No, you're not. You're a multi-millionaire, your life is good. Solve the problem, or shut the fuck up. You said multiple times you love the work, you love waking up doing it, you love to talk about this shit. You're incredibly fortunate, and you should act like that. Yeah, and at one point he's talking about like, 'cause Ian proposes that they just need to switch to doing music at nights, which of course would be more production work, more like back-end stuff, more complications, and less impressive, but sure, and Tim's response is like, yeah, but then we go from 60,000 down to 30,000, it's like, is that all? Only 30,000 people for you on a night stream, of you just playing music with your friends you play. Right. You poor thing. Right. I loved it. I loved Ian's whole vibe, it reminded me of Hansel from Zoolander, like me and my friend just got back fucking skating off the coast of Costa Regan, bittin' up, changed our whole perspective on shit. No, but I loved the way he came in, it was just like, yeah, we could totally like play video games or play music or something like that. What if we just stopped trying so hard, and then it was fun, right? Listen, he is not the millionaire, that is not his job. I wonder why he's paid, I don't know if he even counts as like an employee, I think Luke and his relationship with Tim are a little bit different than like, you know, the IT guys and stuff, but I was proud of Tim for not giving him a whole lot of shit for just kind of creamer-ing in the door. I don't know, I probably would have fired him on the spot. Oh, he's getting fired, that happened in private, yep. Well, yeah, I mostly thought it was, you know, a bit of a let down because of all these things that Tim said that he was so passionate about like changing the culture, and we need to like be building these things and figuring out ways to create them, like coffee shops that only play like based television and shit, like, cool ideas, but apparently he has been able to get a coffee shop off the ground, he's been trying for the last two years and now he's shutting that down. I don't know, there's a coffee shop on every corner in every town, I don't know what the hurdles were that he had to overcome, but I don't know why it was so difficult to open a coffee shop and if it was, why didn't he, I don't know, bring on somebody, one of the tens of millions of people who own coffee shops to help him do so. Dude, I mean, totally valid point, really, I'm surprised that he's this, he's that rich and that bad at business. That's kind of crazy. But it should sound like it's like it felt like he was trying to call other people out and take all the burden off him for when it shuts down, but all it did was make him look like he doesn't have a fucking clue what he's doing with his business. Not that I know better, but bro, you're the millionaire, not me, but if he were just maybe a little bit more libertarian, he would understand that you have to have, you have to compartmentalize. Like he needs to go watch eye pencil and he needs to understand that you should hire somebody who has been in hospitality, who likes your show, who is a true believer and wants to get paid $70,000 to manage your coffee shop. Find that person, move them to West Virginia and get on with your life. It's so easy, but yeah, you should probably hire us. In fact, this isn't consulting services, send us an email, we'll send you a modest bill. Yeah. Because we're doing great over here on this show. Sure. We could absolutely help him in some ways, but yeah. So the next day, Tim comes out, no, I don't need your ads. Tim comes out and he's a, you know, he just, that was supposed to be the last show. That was it. And then he puts out a documentary or no, he puts out a trailer for a documentary the next day. This is playing my ear and I cannot focus for shit. Okay. The next day, Tim does an episode of his show and just is like, no, everything's, everything's cool. Everything's fine. He did address it. He said that after basically from what I gather, Tim's woman, Alison, is she's a part of the business to some degree, she has some sort of control over the business or at least control over Tim, which, you know, women can do that. But he came out the next day and said that it was mostly family stuff. It sounds like he's getting married. He's having a kid and he just needed to lighten the load and him and Alison talked about it. And he's planning on still doing the nightly show to some degree and things will proceed forward. Now that's great and commendable. If you're taking time out of work to be with family, I mean, when you're doing that giant list of things that I just said he does, yeah, how do you, how do you ever start a family with that? But if it is just the case that you don't have time for your family, maybe you should just do, just stop and not throw everybody under the bus before you decide to continue. Like the whole thing is kind of gross and weird because now you just spent a two and a half hours ragging on like, not naming names because that would be, you know, that would be unprofessional to name names. But just know that there's a whole bunch of people here, you know who you are, who are pieces of shit. Oh, actually we're going to, we're going to keep you employed and hope that morale picks up after this because I'm having a baby all and it's going to be great. Yeah, I guess that's why that's maybe one of the reasons I think this is a little bit just kind of weird because what I, what I would have advised him if we were friends, if he was like, yeah, I'm going to do this show and this is how it's going to go. I would go do what you really should do is just make an announcement on the website or on Twitter about how you're restructuring and why I'm starting a family takes from time to time. It's okay. But like my point is like his idea about what he should do is like, yo man, this show flying on these people out here, hotels, booking, I got to pay for drivers, I got to pay for all that. That makes perfect sense to me. That's all infrastructure that you like, yeah, that takes a lot of money. But he is also going on and say, yeah, I can do this board meeting, not a podcast episode. I can do the board, I can do a morning show every day by myself and it doesn't require any labor. It's like, that's a no brainer then. Then you can still give people Tim pool content every day. You can work the algorithm like you have and still have all the things that you want. And that is all well and good and commendable. But the way that he like said, oh, I have to do this because I'm surrounded by all these lackluster people who I won't name for legal reasons, it's just like, you just, you could have made it better for yourself. I think just made yourself look better if you would have avoided that part. Yeah. I mean, all you did was make yourself sound like you don't know how to hire people, how to hire, how to fire people, how to operate your own business. You gave everyone the impression that you are a failing company, which I don't know, that just seems like bad business to me. But what do I know? Now, he also, like I said, started to say he put out this trailer for a documentary that he's been working on with the Sam or Josh Cedar, whatever his name is, yeah, Josh Cedar, the guy who was on the bachelor and pretend to be trans or something. They're doing it a documentary or they did a documentary. There's really not much to it. It feel more like a woman if I got lip liner and I have to admit, they were right. Everyone, everyone, everyone, everyone, everyone, everyone. So yeah, I just have to be honest and share something with everyone out there. I know this is going to come as a shock to a lot of the liberals out there. I just want to say. Okay, so he's shutting it down and also making documentaries. He's shutting down all the peripheral projects and also in the middle of a project that came out the next day. Like McDonald's, like Trump and McDonald's. Like he played. I feel like if it is a PR stunt, the kid on podcast episode, this Randall, or I'm sorry, Raymond, I think is his name. He definitely wasn't in on it. I don't think anybody was in on it except for Tim. If it was a PR stunt, or maybe he was like on the verge and he was like, well, you know, what would give us this big boost right before the election season. If I pretend to quit and then I become the underdog overcoming story and rise with the ashes and drop my documentary the next day, I don't know, I don't know. Get your shit together, man. That's all. Like, if you got problems, work them out, work them out a little bit more privately. And if you're just PR stunt and then go fuck yourself. And really one more thing on that, man. He mentioned his like, oh, we've created this willy Wonka place where like it's everything an employee could dream of. It's like, bro, it's your toys. It's toys that you want. The point is, yeah, my homey Mike started liquid death canned water. He has factories where he does shit too and makes things that people want and they have skate parks inside their factory for their employees to use and blow off steam and have some fun because it's part of the culture, but they make canned water. Yeah. That's why they're there. They all show up for to be part of that part of that, that troll, that brand. If you don't have a brand and it's just people who are like looking for a job or whatever. Yeah. Then yeah, of course you're going to find them just chilling in the skate park. Yeah. And also, I think it's an important takeaway from this is, you know, that if you got the imposter syndrome, if you feel like you're just making it up as you go. If you feel like you're not qualified to speak up or do a thing or make a thing or put yourself out there, just realize between this and the daily wire and the crowders and all the stuff that gets broadcast publicly, it should become, it should become much more aware as all these things come out that nobody knows what they're doing. Nobody has this all figured out. Everybody's just kind of making it up as they go. Some people are making it up better than other people. Some people are blazing new trails, but it's kind of all blazing trails. Podcasting is a new arch and there's no right or wrong way to do it. I mean, there's good and bad ways to do it certainly, but go do a thing. And if you feel like you don't, you're not qualified to do it, just know that even multi-millionaire Tim did a two and a half hour episode where he went out and told everybody, I'm not qualified to do this. I don't know what I'm doing. Now I'm going to keep doing it. So yeah, go do a thing, that's all. Good luck, yeah. And if you are working at, you know, Tim cast facility or something and you're riding around in the skate park and you fall and hurt yourself on the job, you know what to do.

Fake Super Chats from no one at all. Fake Super Chat. This is completely unprofessional. He's a brat. Oh, poor me. I can't keep making millions while saying nothing. She also said he's a socialist. Yeah, I mean, that kind of is proven in his business, but ultimately some degree. Yes. Sean Van Beaverhouse says, "Fake Super Chat, Tim strikes me as a guy who wants all of the creative control himself that is upset when he is overworked. If he relinquished some control, would likely feel a lot less stressed." Yes, you got to learn to delegate some things. And I also am generally quite poor at delegating things, but, you know, I'm getting better at it as time goes on. I find better employees. Listen, I fully admit, I like working with teams, but I not yet have achieved that spot where I'm like the project manager. I'm too unorganized to be the project manager, but projects, organizations, corporations, they need that. That is required, dude. In fact, Mike Heist left the Mises caucus. I don't know how many months ago, maybe it was a year ago at some point. But that guy was, for all intents and purposes, not just driving the line, but the ideological drive. Sure. People require that. And if there isn't that person, then, yeah, that just happens naturally, I think, overtime. People need leaders. Yeah. Not enough about Tim Poole, because whatever. No real love lost. I'll still go to him for information and the occasional entertainment value. We'll still come on your show when you don't. Absolutely. That's what I was trying to say. Invite us on and we'll still happily come, but I heard that you're probably not paying for flights out there anymore, so maybe we'll come. I'm within driving distance, and I'm very eager to be, you know, liked by people. So I'm within driving distance, if you give me a heads up, a big heads up, I'll be there. Now on to other things, now that we've addressed the drama in the room, let's talk about the politics, which are much less dramatic, and as my dog screams in the background as his customary around here, I hear him. Yeah. He's like all the way across the yard too, so that's cool. He's very dedicated to this bit. Now going back a week or two, there was this thing where Kamala Harris was saying that she worked at McDonald's and then people were saying she didn't, Donald Trump said she didn't, and then Donald Trump said, "I'm going to work at McDonald's," which we talked about last week. We talked about when he said he was going to, and everybody said there was no way. This person in particular said, "Asia Grace said, "I'm an ex-McDonald's chef. Trump has no idea how difficult it is to be a French fry cook." Now as an experienced former French fry chef at the McDonald's establishment for three years, I could tell you. Right. Did you work at McDonald's? Three years, yeah. That's awesome. I was just going to ask you if you had fast food experience. I did not work at McDonald's, but I did work at Pizza Hut in the 90s when it was still pretty cool. They're still giving out. We're in the club. They were still doing the book club and, you know, had a book. Oh, book it. Personal pans, bro. Street Fighter in the corner. Cops. And Jeff Leber. Wait, service still. Yeah, bro. We were crushing it. We must return to tradition. They say we can't go back, but we can't. Now, side note, since you brought it up, I'm pretty sure there's something called Pizza Hut Classic. That is still a thing where, like, the original owners still reserved the rights to several stores in various states, and you can go find it. I don't know if it's true, but there's a few of them in Illinois and Iowa, and we're going to take a road trip soon, go find one, hunt it down, because, yeah. I want my free pan pizza. I've read so many books since then. Russia won't let McDonald's won't let Russia have McDonald's. They won't let him do that. McDonald's won't let Russia have, you know, their franchise, so they just, they weren't allowed to use the name anymore, so now they just look like McDonald's, and they serve all the same food, and they just call it different shit, but they look exactly the same. I mean, it can't be that hard to reverse engineer McDonald's food, let's be honest. You find the company that sells the meat patties, and then you're kind of just on your own from there. But, yeah, I can confirm that with all sincerity as a former, as an ex-McDonald's French fry chef, that I was very confident that Trump could handle the task ahead of him. And now also, we do have one more flashback. Here's Tim Ols, as we saw last week, discussing the same. Coming to Florida, I'll be damned if airline prices didn't shoot way up for folks trying to fly out of Florida. That's not capitalism, that's price gouging, and it's simply unethical. Those are the things we're talking about to make prices more affordable. So, I did see this. Donald Trump wandered into a grocery store here a while ago, I'll have to tell you this. Nope. Yeah. You know he hasn't been in one since 1985, I keep making this case. I keep trying to say these things. You know, Kamala worked in a McDonald's, I said, "Can you picture that guy running the McFlurry machine?" But he walks into this grocery store and he hands a $100 bill to a lady to pay for his groceries. Did you see this? So, I'm like thinking, "I wonder what he's doing there?" And then I got to thinking, "I think it's just natural. Any woman he sees, he pays off because he--" All right, there was a McDonald's quote in there somewhere, I don't know. We've already heard it. He said that Trump kind of handled McDonald's. Anyway, all that leading up to, Donald Trump went to a McDonald's and here's what happened. It's an amazing business, it's an amazing country and we're going to make America greater than ever before. We're going to build it. Are you going to see Aaron Rock? Look at the enthusiasm. I mean, that's thousands of people over the musical miles back. That's incredible. Are you going to be an Aaron Rocker or what's your answer in there? The screens, like, you would think there was a genocide going on behind the camera, but no, that's people in cars just waving at the guy that they want to be president and hoping to get a free Big Mac. We're talking about getting started in your own career, Ms. President, tell us about those jobs. Yeah, tell us all about how you're up starting career back like 50 years ago. No, bro, we're here to talk about what's happening. Anyway, so it happened. That's the thing. Donald Trump, from what I hear, I could be wrong, correct me if I'm wrong, Dave, but Donald Trump, billionaire Donald Trump, went to a local Pennsylvania McDonald's, submitted an application, got a job and worked there just like any one of us, right? He got the job. Sure. Did he feel out of an application? I didn't look that too far into it. Yeah. He was working. That's funny. That's a good... Wait, he wasn't working there? Are you telling it was stage, Dave? Are you telling me this whole thing was staged in some sort of scale, publicist on stage? I just assumed that this was part of that, but maybe he was changing it up. Yeah. This is the one time he's been honest, just when he worked in McDonald's for 15 minutes. Bro, listen, I just want to say that there's a microcosm here in that... You know how when you eat McDonald's, it feels so fucking good. It's just pleasure. It's pleasurable, right? All of it. The crunch factor, the salt, and all the drugs that they put in all their shit, right? I do it every day, and I stand by it. Okay. Look. I encourage everybody to eat every meal at McDonald's. It's amazing. Just like Dave said. But listen. After you eat it, though, you get that mick feeling, it's just like mick guilt mixed in with mick shame. Right. That's kind of how I feel with watching this Trump, this Donald McDonald's commercial, because... Ronald and Donald Trump commercial. Bro, nostalgia is so hot right now. Nobody. McDonald's might be the quintessential American company, and nobody has made you feel like attached like wholesomeness and like... Like you can't even go to a pizza hut because it'd just be sad. Like McDonald's is still up and going and holding that nostalgia factor. Dude, what they've done with their commercials, I just found an 80s commercial. I remixed it for a little Trump meme that I made the other day. But like the music that they would do for their do-all beef patties, just like the... It's pure optimism, pure euphorias. It's drugs. Yes. And here's a clown for your kids with toys. Straight up drug. We put a park in the drug shop. Right. Oh my God. Torturing every parent as they drive by one on every corner. Forever. Forever. And you're a shitty parent if you don't do it. Anyway, I just wanted to make the point that there is this interesting dichotomy where like the food itself gives you that feeling for a minute. And so does watching Trump do this, because this is absolutely nothing. It is a stunt. And he is silly and he's not working there. And I'm sure that deep down, he really doesn't have a whole lot of respect for these people. But at the end of the day, while the Kamala team... I mean, bro, Donald Trump does like McDonald's. He likes his McDonald's. He's proven that time and time again. I think he likes it because he just likes fast food and like anybody, like salt and fat tastes good. And it's got Donald in the name. But beyond that, maybe he does love it. I'm just saying that the other team is trying so hard to say things like, "Oh, he couldn't do that because he's not ever had a job like you. You don't find him relatable because he's a billionaire. But like ultimately, he is more relatable. When he goes and he's around those people, he doesn't seem fake. I'm telling you that is somebody who's got a pretty good bullshit detector. He seems like he's... I'm at least... I'm not going to know okay, Tom. Yeah, these are pretty cool people. Do you want a playground? Just little clips. Fucking great. You should watch the whole thing. It's great. Cool. All right. Yeah. And there's something that you can't beat that with a politician that always has to turn it on. Right. Yeah. Gotta get that weave. Gotta weave. Sometimes they weave. And you just gotta go pew. You need to watch the episode. It's great. I might pull... I think I pulled a sound bite or a sound clip. Let me see if I saved it yet. Here we go. You gotta be able to pew. All right. We're going to use that one. I'm for that. You gotta be able to pew. That's keeper. Now, also on the... So Donald Trump does this thing. This muck Donald's scam. This absolute scam where he pretended that he applied for a job, got a job at McDonald's, worked there for 15 minutes and then quit. At least that's how the left would have you assume this went down because they were instantly screaming. This was fake. This was staged. The customers were pre-screened. They didn't even have to pay for their meal. They all started saying that Donald Trump didn't pay for the meals. But I think that's absolute bullshit since we haven't heard anything else about it. But yeah. It was completely fake stage. Yes. The camera crew kind of gave it away for me too. The boom mics coming into the shot. That was kind of gave it away. And also, what did you think? That they were gonna just throw Donald Trump on the fry that and be like, "Here you go. Get to work." And they just continue with the rest of their day. Apparently, the entire McDonald's was shut down and that's a big fucking deal because, you know, it's obviously fake. If it was shut down, he didn't have to do anything, make anything, whatever. Yes. No shit. He... Okay. This guy's been... Had assassination attempts on his life at least twice, possibly three, four, five times at this point. Did you think that they were just gonna throw him into McDonald's and be like, "Here, pass these out to strangers and we'll hope for the best." Like, no. He was there. The envelope wasn't there and that's that. Kamala might've been there at some point, but apparently McDonald's came out with a statement saying that the records didn't go back far enough to check. Nobody asked them necessarily or they didn't need to release a statement about Kamala Harris. But I have a feeling that McDonald's is kind of seeing the value in the Donald because he's the one who's like when the Kamala Harrises of the world are like in their elite looking down on all the peasants, the middle class family that she brags so much about. They make fun of Donald Trump and his McDonald's habit, but Donald Trump's gonna keep bringing the business to McDonald's so McDonald's is like, "We're not taking a political stance here, but we're gonna go with a guy who, you know, keeps bringing money into our business and our establishment and bringing a whole lot of attention to our brand." But... Yeah. Don't... Whatever. Here's Barack Obama. He had a different take on it than I did, of course. Somebody who was raised in the middle class. She worked at McDonald's when she was in college to pay her expenses. Kalish. Pretend to work at McDonald's when it was closed. Like Barack Obama has never done a PR stunt or a staged shoot somewhere or anything. It's even he's appalled that it was closed when Donald Trump pretended to work there. I think deep down Barack Obama knows that this was a fucking brilliant stunt that speaks to all those middle class families that Kamala Harris was one of, definitely. This is somebody who believes in the values that built this country, and she is as prepared as any nominee for president has ever been. That's who Kamala is. Prepared for president as any candidate has ever been. Those are big words coming from a mostly loved former president that Kamala Harris is just as prepared to see was, but, you know, when we're politicians, we just say things. Now that little speech actually I skipped over the intro to that speech because, oh boy, Kamala Harris got a new endorsement this week who introduced former president Barack Obama. Here is definitely lower to middle class Detroit native Marshall Mather. I'm here tonight for a couple of important reasons. As most of you know, the city of Detroit and the home state of Michigan mean a lot to me. Going into this election, the spotlight is on us more than ever, and I think it's important to use your voice. So I'm encouraging everybody to get out and vote, please, get me in the queue. I also think that people shouldn't be afraid to express their opinions, and I don't think anyone wants an America where people are worried about retribution or what people will do if you make your opinion known. I think vice president Harris supports a future for this country where these freedoms and many others will be protected and upheld. And here to tell you much more about that, President Barack Obama, all right, bad ass of yesteryear Marshall Mathers, AKA M&M, you know, he used to sing about like raping people, murdering people, being a homophobe, being a misogynist, having exes like tied up in his trunk and killing his mother and, you know, just the voice for women that he's been, he's now out there endorsing Kamala Harris because reasons how big of a check do you think he got Dave? Zero. Really? You think he's that big of a bitch? I don't think that he did that for money, dude. And I just got to say I'm so, I was like stereotypically an M&M Stan fan, you know, like, and this is, and for good reason, I'd say white America, like dude, he was against all of it at one point. This is so fucking disappointing. I can only imagine what they have on you, sir. But dude, I'm so, you know, it's been like Kamala Harris is the one who is like going to allow you to speak freely and Donald Trump's going to silence you. Well, Tim Walz literally said it was arguing that freedom of speech doesn't cover all speech. It's not absolute. It doesn't cover hate speech doesn't cover mean words, like to say that Donald Trump is the one that's trying to silence you while all of last election season, we were getting kicked off of Facebook, YouTube and Twitter for, yes, Twitter, even at the time before Elon Musk for speaking out against COVID, speaking out against Biden, speaking out against even Trump, speaking out against anything. I got kicked off of Facebook for saying that QAnon was a hoax. And you know, just saying the words were enough to get you banned like four years ago. And now we've got M&M, the, the most vulgar man who who is like above all reproach, obviously, he has beaten cancel culture with his entire life and proven that it doesn't mean anything to the Democrats, what, you know, people have said in the past as long as they like you. And you say the right things right now. It doesn't matter what you said in the past. But as soon as he steps out of line, he's going to, he's going to, you know, reap the consequences of that. But so you think that super edgy M&M is just like, we definitely need Kamala Harris. Is it because he supports her or because they've got so much dirt on him at this point? And he's just avoiding that cancellation. Dude, M&M's been here since 1998. He's got wraps talking about fucking Monica Lewinsky in like current times. Yeah. Okay. So he never felt the need to come out and be like, yo, you need to vote against George Bush or you need to vote for John Kerry or you need to vote for the first black American president. Twice that happened. And he didn't feel the need to come out and be like, yo, this is the most important election of our lifetimes. Yeah. He did not do that. He didn't do that when Trump came out the first time. He didn't do that when he ran against Joe Biden, but all of a sudden, oh, he did. No, he did against Joe Biden. He came out the Donald Trump's a bitch, little cipher at the BET Awards, if you're called. Okay. But you know, that's, that's still different. That's the BET cipher. He's rapping about how much he hates Donald Trump, and that's fine. But he did, he has never gone to a political rally to go, Hey, listen up, everybody. It's time we rock the vote and we do it for this person. He has never done that. The first time I ever remember him selling out was for brisk iced tea. I saw that commercial in like 2011, and I remember being like, what the fuck dude? Why would you do that? You had all this cache, all this, like I'm still part of the underground. I still put some most back on my name and you do this fucking, you kick it off with brisk iced tea. Like, mmm. Yeah. Selling these delicious shitties. I'm still the Detroit homie hanging out and telling you, you need to vote for Kamala Harris because because bro, you either die a hero or you live long enough to become Ken Ken If. Okay. I don't understand the reference. I'm sorry. You don't. Well, then you haven't heard enough Eminem records, bro. He's turned into a fucking, just an empty vessel. He's rocky three on the silk sheets, who's a recluse who has no friends surrounded by yes, man. Your music fucking sucks. I bought your new record at fucking blows, bro. I don't know, man. I listened to it the next day after he told me that I meant to tell you. I think it's all right. I need to give it a second listen, but I got halfway through and I was enjoying it besides important. It's important to not just wrap your ass off, but make good music. Just sure. Yeah, I'll have to revisit, but I don't really care about his music. I hope that he makes good music no matter how bad his political opinions are, but this just feels like awful. It feels like Howard Stern, where it's like I've done a lot of things in the past that I would prefer that we don't talk about. So Kamala Harris, what's your favorite color? You know, what's your favorite side dish on a picnic? The hard-hitting questions that journalists ask or, you know, the edge lords like Howard Stern that we're trying to forget about did in the past. That's what Eminem is doing here. He's Howard Stern. And it's sad to see, but it's also not that much of a surprise. Now, in case Eminem was too much of a bitch for you, here is Barack Obama with his opening remarks. I got to say, you know, I have done a lot of rallies, so I don't usually get nervous, but I was feeling some kind of way following Eminem, and I noticed my palms are sweating these week, times are heavy, and I'm a sweater already, mom's forgetting, I'm nervous. I'm nervous, but on the sofa. He sounds like a black Southern Baptist pastor, who's like, his congregation isn't familiar with Eminem, but he is like, "This is going to really rile him up," and he's just reading Eminem lyrics as like his sermon of the day. You better lose yourself. Amen. Can I get an amen? Imagine if you were a white guy, but you had the ability to pass for black. That's what it's the sounds like. You just could go ahead and you could do it. You mean like Howard Stern. Yeah, kind of. You saw the clip. Come and run it to drop bombs, but I keep falling for dinner. Aw, now if you recall, also I do think this is a funny reference because if you recall like just months ago when Eminem was suing or threatening to sue somebody else for using that, those very lines at one of their rallies, here is Vivek Ramaswami, you tell me who did it better. Now, when this happened, everybody was like, "This dude's so white, he's so white, he's not even Indian anymore. This is so white, this is so cringe, this is so lame, this is so lame," so whatever. It's like, who do you think's got more swag this? Sure, it's not a lot, but it's some. He's got flow. Or following Eminem, bomb it on my sweater already, mom's spaghetti, I'm nervous, but on the surface I look calm and ready. Hashtag libertarian unity, y'all. Vote who wraps better. That's what I'm saying. It's not a bad strategy. Now, on the topic of washed up rappers, Donald Harris got another endorsement this week. That I personally found to be quite amusing, especially since, okay, actually something just occurred to me, but I'm going to save it. The insane clown posse endorsed Kamala Harris, this week like, "Oh, unity, Detroit unity." It's like, you guys just got Hulk Hogan and Kid Rock and also Kennedy and Tulsi just joined the Republican Party and Joe Exotic even joined in the fray. You know, Vivek, these losers. These absolute losers, while insane clown posse is out there shilling for Kamala Harris, along with Dick Cheney. Let's read a little bit of this. This is from consequence.net, so you know what's legit. And what surely comes is a heartbreaking disappointment to Donald Trump. Insane clown posse's violent Jay has endorsed Kamala Harris for president speaking with comedian Troy Iwata for a recent segment on the Daily Show, violent Jay confirmed that Harris is his preferred pick for the White House saying, quote, "I want her to win because she's a Democrat and I love my mom." Yikes, you got to be able to pew. I am. What's funny about this that just occurred to me before reading it is that like Eminem and the insane clown posse dudes had like this big rivalry beef back in the day where they fucking hated each other. It was like a big thing where he said that they were cringe and they were and they said that he was whatever, whatever, but they had a big beef. And now it's like the two of these like edgy rapper duos that were fighting back in the day are both like, yep, we're on the party of Dick Cheney, Taylor Swift, Kamala Harris, you know, the winning side or the right side of history, the edgy side at least. You know, I mean, I don't know if my mom was a Democrat and I love my mom is quite the endorsement that Kamala Harris was looking for. I'm not sure that the insane clown posse is exactly the endorsement that Kamala Harris was looking for either. But what do you think, Dave? Does this help or hurt her cause? No, whoever, whatever, Shaggy 2, Shaggy 2 game. Dope. Shaggy 2 dope, listen, if you have a mom or a daughter or a sister or a wife and you don't vote for Kamala Harris, then you're a piece of shit. I don't tell you, man. Why don't you know women? Why aren't you as respectful and anti misogynistic as people like Eminem and Shaggy 2 Dope and violent Jay of the insane clown posse who everybody knows is the bastion of women's rights? And he's got that lyric cut pamma lubies tits off and he's got that picture of floating around the internet that looks like a woman that had her fucking tits cut off. Like I'm like, that's funny. That lyric just popped off. As feminists do, you know. Yep. Liberation. Yep. Now there's somebody else. There's a few more endorsements for Kamala Harris this week and there's one in particular from somebody that we haven't heard about in about as long as we haven't heard about the insane clown posse, but he's got his own segment. The world today has 6.8 billion people. Now if we do a really great job, we could lower that fight perhaps 10 or 15 percent. Gates watch. That's right. It's the segment where we talk about the creepy weirdo Bill Gates as he tries to block out the sun, turn all meat into plastic and soy into everything. He loves vaccines and he hates population growth and vaccines are going to solve that problem for us. He's had a CD passed in many ways, but is there anything more CD than the fact that Bill Gates is now endorsing not only endorsing Kamala Harris for president, but he's donating $50 million to a pack supporting her ahead of the election. Now I think, I think that this, I don't know, all these things are starting to sound really desperate to me, but Bill Gates endorsed Kamala Harris and once again, like it just keeps happening and happening every single, almost every single person that endorses Kamala Harris, it's less, like people like Eminem and Jack Black, it's like, oh, that's sad. That's a bummer that you guys are, you know, sucking the systems, teats or whatever, but we're trying to hide your, your blackmail. But then there's people like Bill Gates and Dick Cheney and Liz Cheney and all these people where it's like, does she even want to win? If I, if I was her, this doesn't make me, I don't know. Is there somebody out there that Bill Gates's endorsement makes more inclined to vote for Kamala Harris? Do you think Dave? Well that's why, dude, I, that's a good, that's a really good point. And that's kind of why I tend to just believe that Trump has been preselected by the powers that be. You can talk about who they are. If you want, don't care. And Kamala Harris, like Joe Biden was an obsolete program that they couldn't, the whole thing is about fundraising, donors, money, launder the money, give us the, you know, to get the money back to the donors, right? Make more money. So Joe Biden couldn't facilitate that. And he's a liability. So you have to bring in the late, the woman of color who will allow them to raise way more money. So yeah, when you see somebody like, dude, Walt's had to go on the daily show. Like that guy, the daily show every day made fun of. And for great reason, George Bush and Dick Cheney and their entire agenda for years. And he, and walls had to go on and be like, well, we have a big tent party and you know, they're like, I can't believe that that happened in 2024. And John Stewart, you know, a little bit of pushback, but not a whole lot. It's just, that's crazy to me. Yep. There's another one that made me even more sad, which is Michael Keaton endorsed Kamala Harris. Yeah. And he said that Donald Trump doesn't care about you because he said when he could go on Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody, not loose any voters, that proves that he thinks you're stupid. He thinks you're stupid. You're stupid. He doesn't care about you. He doesn't trust you. He doesn't believe in you. He thinks you're stupid. Yeah, because Donald Harris is doing doing a lot better on the thinking you're stupid while she tells you that Donald Trump said, you know, really find people hoaxes and all like all the things, all the things that we talked about on a weekly basis. We've got a whole new batch of new ones, an entire new batch, which people are wondering if this is their big October surprise. Have you seen any of the new clip, Steve, that they're saying are the bombshells that are going to ruin Trump's career? Yeah. I heard he said that he wanted generals like Hitler had. I heard that was their big, their big push. Yeah. I heard him say that too, or at least I heard somebody say that they heard somebody say that they heard him say it, but there's a these just were have been coming out over the last like 12 hours and they're they're pretty real quick before we get into that just to put a bow on the last little segment. Do you think dude that got guys like Eminem and Michael Keaton just feel compelled to come out and support vocally publicly Kamal Harris or that they that there is some, but there's some force that is making them do that or like, you know, some kind of some kind of blackmail or they just like, no, super liberal really believe it Trump, existential threat. So I don't know. Has have you ever heard a political opinion of any kind from Michael Keaton? It's what I'm saying, like I little he has a Twitter, I went back and after that I looked at some of his tweets and like, you know, he tweets some liberal stuff. Yeah. And it's like that's kind of what these people do is like they become influencers as long as I mean, he's been in Hollywood for 40 years. Yeah. So he probably wouldn't be crazy if he did something questionable along the line, you know what I mean? I don't know. Yeah. And just I don't know what your motivation, dude. You just would be more of a shame if you found out that Michael Keaton actually raped kids or that he actually supports Kamal Harris on his own accord, Dave. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, I don't know why I'm still using bottoms when we've got you got to be able to pew. Mm hmm. That's right. Batman, Beetlejuice, like you don't have to do that. You don't. So it's just weird. It's weird to me that you would choose to like throw your credibility over that. Agreed. But whatever. Good actor. Stopping stupid. It's fine. Also, like I don't I don't have a problem with Michael Keaton voting for Kamala Harris at all. I don't care who Michael Keaton votes for, but when you're making a video saying that Donald Trump just thinks you're stupid and that's why he's like, like, if you're going to be a piece of the propaganda, then I might have a bigger issue because you are part of the problem. You are lying and telling me that Kamala Harris is like, sure, Donald Trump probably doesn't think that highly of middle class people. Kamala Harris doesn't either and it shows she she panders to them. She says the words over and over again. She speaks in their dialect or uses, you know, slang or, uh, what's the word, vernacular? Sure. Yeah. It's a it's a much more than that. It's the word word. Never mind Donald Trump's been under extreme fire like any more fire than Donald Trump's been under in the last six months, uh, over the last 12 hours because, uh, the Democrats and Kamala HQ in particular has been putting out such spicy bits like this meme that says Vietnam quotes. So, you know, it's legit Vietnam Vietnam would have been a waste of time for me. Only suckers went to Vietnam. Donald Trump said that source the Atlantic. Okay. So the Atlantic said that Donald Trump said that. So it must be true. Um, and they said along with that sickening, you can't see it. Why can't you see it? Why can you in it? All right. There we go. I need to figure this out sometime. Um, so that was one Donald Trump once again, use the suckers and losers line that we were told he has said by people who heard that he said it from somebody else who heard or somebody who like some former Trump employee that doesn't like him anymore said that he said it and, uh, so that makes it legit. You notice how we never hear him say it and frankly I'm still waiting for the, the N word tape because I was told that there was an N word tape out there somewhere of Donald Trump saying the N word. It was going to come out. This was like eight years ago. It still hasn't come out and I'm not disappointed because I want to find out definitively if Donald Trump is a racist, I am very disappointed because I now don't have the sound bite to stick into our sound board here and do stuff like just imagine if we, if we had Donald Trump dropping N bombs how many times would use it Dave? So flush the channel tell you to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to, yeah, I'm still waiting on, uh, the N word tape I'm waiting on the P tape. Apparently you got, you got paid some prostitutes to pee on him. That's what we were told. There's no way. There's no way any of that exists because it would be out. Oh, it's two weeks. It's two weeks before he becomes president again. No, it definitely exists. We're just, we'll get it someday. It's just as locked at locked down as tightly as the Epstein files and the JFK assassination. These, these very condemning P tapes that was going to ruin Donald Trump two election cycles ago, but, um, yep, still waiting on those still waiting on the N word and still waiting on there were several others that we've still never gotten, but adding to the list, John Kelly speaks out about Donald Trump's love for Adolf Hitler. Here we go. You would, uh, you could, as it were the ones that, you know, did some good things too. And of course, if you know history, um, again, I think he's lacking in that. But if you know what his, you know, Hitler was all about, uh, you'd be pretty hard to make an argument that she did anything good. So what would you, what would you say when he said to you that Hitler did a lot of good thing? Well, tell him that. I should not argue. If you, first of all, you should never say that. But if you knew what history was all about from the beginning to the end, uh, everything he did was in support of his racist, fascist, uh, life, you know, you know, philosophy so that nothing you did, you could argue was good. Oh, this guy's obviously an expert. Yep. Well, he did such bad things that anything that he did that could have been perceived as good can no longer be perceived as good because bad things are bad. And also don't, I like how they're, he's like, so I heard, I definitely heard Donald Trump say, uh, Hitler did some good things. And that's the premise that we're going with. We don't need that much more explanation on that. It's kind of like when, uh, oh, I'll get to that, um, he, we don't need more explanation on that. You can just say, uh, Trump said this thing and then we can spend the rest of the time talking about Hitler is bad. Trump said Hitler did some good things, but now we can fill time with don't you know that Hitler is bad? It's kind of like when they're, uh, they asked like Kamala Harris about like her immigration or something like that. And then she spun it into yeah, but Donald Trump lied about this thing and lying is bad. And then she could talk for five minutes about how bad lying was. And we, can you imagine if we had a liar in the White House that would be insanity? Um, yeah, just the way they, they, they take the question, they spin it and then they go with that for five minutes. And also you'll notice John Kelly is not dead. John Kelly is obviously willing to speak out about this. Why is it a recording that they're playing in this story? It's to make you feel like it's a leaked audio from somebody who is really close to Donald Trump who heard him say such a thing to make it more credible somehow. But really this is just an ex-employee who is saying Donald Trump said something that is still kind of a nothing thing that Donald Trump probably didn't say. And that's, that's their golden goose. Good job, y'all. You did it. I don't know why, but I. I just believe the guy who I just believe. I want to take the word of the guy who has eyebrows pointed in the direction of evil people in every fucking movie ever, uh, you know, about, uh, Hitler, he's, uh, everything he did was for a fascist, racist fuse. You guys heard Hitler was bad, right? Hitler's bad. Just like Donald Trump. That's why you shouldn't vote for him because I heard Donald Trump was Hitler because Donald Trump told me in private and I didn't feel like recording it. Um, yes. Once again, please send me the tape. If you've got it, I would love to hear it. I would love to clip it and use it, however we see fit, but, um, we're going to, we're going to move on because, uh, what's his name, former, whatever was it? Yeah. Chief of staff, John Kelly is who that one was. Now we've got, uh, immediately after like these things just came out within like the last 24 hours and suddenly we've got clip, maybe I just wasn't paying attention, but now we've got clips of other people saying the exact same thing because the playbook has been passed around and, uh, we, we now know what the script is. This is our last at Cheffert. We've got two weeks left and, uh, here's Tim Wills. Look, the highest ranking soldier in America, General Mark Millie, the chairman of the joint chiefs of staff who was there with Trump on record, said, and this is a quote Donald Trump, the most dangerous person ever to secure to this nation. James Maths, a four star general, Trump's own secretary of defense agrees with him. His chief of staff, a four star general, John Kelly said he's the most flawed human being he'd ever met. Yeah. Everything has been reported that Donald Trump said, "I need the kind of generals that Hitler had." Don't be the frog in the boiling water and think this is okay. As a 24 year veteran of our military, that makes me sick as hell and it should make you sick. And as a fake baseball coach and a man who was not in Tiananmen Square, I am outraged, as a big knucklehead who speaks for you. Trump is descending into this madness. A former president of the United States and the candidate president of the United States says he wants generals like Adolf Hitler had. Think about it. And he already has the Supreme Court in his pocket. They've effectively given him full immunity. If he's elected again, he will appoint up to three more Supreme Court justices. Fuck yeah. And God knows there's not a single spine in the Republican Party in Congress that will stand up to it. So there's Tim Walz. If you're mongering, here's a Kamal Harris. I learned that Donald Trump's former chief of staff, John Kelly, a retired four star general confirmed that while Donald Trump was president, he said he wanted generals like Adolf Hitler had. Donald Trump said that because he does not want a military that is loyal to the United States Constitution, he wants a military that is loyal to him. He wants a military who will be loyal to him personally. One that will obey his orders even when he tells them to break the law or abandon their oath to the Constitution of the United States. In just the past week, Donald Trump has repeatedly called his fellow Americans the enemy from not within and even said that he would use the United States military to go after American citizens. What's that? Can you pause it real quick? Yeah. This is this. This is the double speak that these lawyers, she's, you know, top lawyer, all the lawyers. This is the stuff that pisses me off the most. Oh, Donald Trump called Americans the enemy within. This is from the current sitting government that for the past three and a half, four years is saying Donald Trump and his supporters, a group of extreme white supremacists are the greatest threat to the United States. Literally Hitler, literally, you're all Hitler. This was Biden's very public, very deep red speech. You remember that? It was called the, what was it, the soul of the nation? Look it up on YouTube. It's still out there when he's got the Nazi red behind him and he's flailing his fists and saying that the scourge of the nation was these MAGA Republicans and they needed to be stopped. Like, yeah, right. So maybe, dude, again, this is, this could all be theater or maybe it isn't. Maybe a little bit of both. But when you start to see the more of the players, generals who have been around for decades, willing to say stuff like that about him, it only makes me want to vote for Trump more. Yeah. It only makes me put more faith that his candidacy is legitimate. The more the establishment is against Trump, the more I trust Trump and I don't trust Trump. And I've been very vocal about my lack of trust for Trump, but the more you guys literally try to kill him and lie your asses off about him constantly and just, just say things and then repeat things and the mockingbird, the mockingbird media supports everything that is perfectly in line with you and the regime. Okay. Well, then that makes me think more that Trump is at least a little bit against the regime because they don't seem to like him, even if it is part of the playbook, but somebody else is confused by all this. I don't understand how we got so toxic and just so divided and so bitter and I get why sometimes people just don't want to pay attention to it. And we all have friends like that. We have family members who just like, you know, it's all, it's all a circus out there. I get that. Like all these things at the same time, they're saying all these things like you, Donald Trump just pushes division and also Donald Trump is literally Hitler and you like you shouldn't trust any of his supporters. And also I can't understand why all this division is going on. It just doesn't make sense. Who's doing it? Who's doing all this, Dave? It could be Barack Obama and his foundation, which, you know, it focuses on misinformation and disinformation. Man, if everybody at your dinner table who disagrees with you is an agent of disinformation and everybody is following this Nazi, you know, like what, what should you do with these people? Right? That's, dude, that did you get by any chance? Did you see Biden talk about this recently? What he had to say? Or did you grab that clip? I did not. I must have missed that. So real quick. Biden, at the end of this little speech about due to how bad of a guy Donald Trump is, we need to lock him up. We need to lock him up. That just, that just happened. So they are preparing you. It seems like, like, yeah, you're the words, the mean tweets are so bad. You are, you pose such an existential threat that we might just have to lock you up because you're a Nazi. Yeah. And of course they're not going to lock him up. They're going to lock all of his supporters up who go along with it and are labeled Nazis for, for supporting it, you know, the January 6th stuff. But yeah, here's the key. He is talking about doing everything in the entire department of education. Yeah. Because he means it. Not missing out on joke. Based. This guy who also wants to replace every single servant, every single one, thinks he has a razor of the stream crew ruling on immunity to be able, if need be, if he was the case to actually eliminate physically eliminate, shoot, kill. Yeah, I finally found the one that works. Oops. What happened? To be able, if need be, if he was the case to actually eliminate, physically eliminate, kill someone who he believes to be a threat to. I mean, so I know this sounds bizarre. It sounds like I said this five years ago, you locked me up. We got to lock him up. There it is. Well, now we love it. Yeah. Well, now in fairness, Dave, I mean, Donald Trump did spend four years saying lock her up, lock her up, and to a sea of people chanting, lock her up at every rally. Is this, do you think that this is more concerning than that was? A hundred percent. Yeah. So. Because Hillary Clinton, what I mean, again, Donald Trump pussyed out on that, I'm not giving him a pass. Sure. He should have locked her up. But he didn't want to do it because, you know, that's a wife of a president, but she's a work criminal. Yeah. She absolutely should go to prison. So yeah, yeah, lock her up, yeah, but they, but they're, this is more law fair if this goes through is my point and instead of just having an election, you know, maybe they're trying something, you know, they've tried some other stuff a couple of times, right? Sure. So maybe the, maybe the jail is the thing I don't know, man. We'll see. I mean, Trump's evaded prison this long. I don't think Biden saying lock him up is going to sway the opinion all that much because there's already like a 40% of the population that thinks that Donald Trump should be in prison anyway, at least so, right? Yeah. Yeah. I don't know if that's going to change anything. Not that worried about that. But yeah, at the same time as them, this new mockingbird media campaign that once again, Donald Trump is literally Hitler or Donald Trump quoted, or said that Hitler had good ideas and he wants Hitler generals and then Biden saying lock him up all this stuff. And who's to say why we're so divided? But the party of joy and peace and patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, and self-control had even more things to say of love. Here's Tim Walz once again with, with just a piece on Elon Musk. Look, Elon's on that stage jumping around, skipping like a dipshit on these things. You know it. I'm not sure how much this I'm allowed to play on with music on, but once again, it's similar to Tim Walz saying that J.D. Vance is like a poser as a midwesterner or whatever, while he's wearing flannel and like a hunter hat and loading a shotgun in his crotch. Now he's like, Elon Musk is just dancing around like a faggot on stage. And then we've got like every time Tim Walz walks out again, he looks like he's waving at a crowd full of toddlers and it's hard to ignore. Any thoughts, Dave? It's just one more example of like why Tim Walz is, you know, he's an actor, but he's not good at his job. Like you have to go out there and and go, you know who's stupid, the richest and most base guy on earth. Like man, everybody wants to win. He sucks. I mean, it's just it sounds like he sounds like a libertarian candidate with that strategy. Right. Again, that just, it makes me want to get the neural link to give it to me because fucked Tim Walz, I submit to the Antichrist because the the opposition is worse. Um, now speaking of the Antichrist, there is there has been several like Kamala Harris interviews where we could spend an entire episode just breaking down the lunacy of each one of these. We're not going to do that. I'm just going to play one clip from each one. But we didn't talk about the Bret Baer one. Did we? Why is? No, I don't think we did. Oh, yeah, is there a team meeting? Not on Wednesday at two 30 in from two. Sorry y'all. Anyway, get back. Yes. You got to be able to pew. I'm going to find the proper application for for that clip. I'll tell them that we're podcasting. Yes. Now, where are these interviews? Did we talk about the Bret Baer interview at all? I don't think we did. After the last week's episode. Okay. Did you catch that? Because that was that I mean I could watch that on loop just put it on my veins all day long of Kamala Harris struggling for for any sanity. But it's to the point where this that's what all of these interviews are even well, first off the media is starting to get a they're starting to pusher finally on a little bit. Now two weeks before the election, they're finally starting to ask her some questions, which makes me think that the the there they're seeing the writing on the wall at the very least. And they're like, well, we might as well get out of this with a little bit of credibility and intact. And if we're just if we're only asking her softball questions, like Howard Stern did, then nobody's going to take it seriously after the fallout. But here's one example of Bret Baer and Kamala's answer frankly exhausted of Brett. More than 70% of people tell the country is on the wrong track. They say the country is on the wrong track. If it's on the wrong track, that track follows three and a half years of you being vice president and President Biden being president. That is what they're saying. Seventy nine percent of them. Why are they saying that? If you're turning the page, you've been in office for three and a half years. And Donald Trump has been running for office. But you've been the person holding the office matter by talking about you and I both know what I'm talking about. But what I'm talking about is that over the last decade, people have become but listen, over the last decade, it is clear to me and certainly the Republicans who are on stage with me. Oh God, it's so it again put it in my veins. I could watch that all day long just first off. If Brett Baer is like your tough interviewer that who's like really taking you to task, then you're probably not ready. But all he asked was, so this percentage of the country think we're on the wrong path and that wrong path has been under you. So what do you say to that? And she's like, well, Donald Trump's been running for, you know what I'm talking about, shut up. Like, that's her response and it's fun to watch. I would highly recommend that everybody fall asleep listening to that interview on repeat and probably the next one too because it just makes me feel good. Even if Donald Trump loses abysmally, we still have that to look back on in these beautiful moments and so many more under our new Lord, Connell, appraise be, do you got any thoughts on that or the Brett Baer interview at large? Only that if they try and do what they did in the last election and they succeed, like I don't know what that's going to look like, bro, because like she's so awful and it would be so blatantly obvious this time, that I just, I don't know, January 12th, January six times two times. Exactly. Yeah. I mean, that's, they're not going to, they're not going to fortify the election before January 12th anyway, because they're already talking about, we need to make sure everybody's geared up for dragging this thing out because it's going to be weeks before Maricopa County can figure out how to count again and we got to get the, the wheelbarrows out and get them all, you know, lubed up for the, the fake ballots to wheel in for the Jimmy Carter's of the world. Sorry. I'm rambling Dave. No, it's, well, I wish, I wish that we could just go back or if there ever was a time where you just, you have to show up on the day to vote and I don't want to hear about, I don't want to, it's hard for people to get off work or begot things to do and they can't get voting. Nobody could possibly get a Xerox copy of it. No, go, show your fucking ID, cast your vote and you have to do it that day and you have to have the tallies in at the end of the day. Local municipalities do it showing up on time and having ID Dave. Could you be any more racist? You know what, I don't know, whatever that is. That's what should be implied. If that's a racist policy, then make, you know, make voting great again. Yep. Now I wish that we could spend an evening just going through all of the, the flagrant interview that Donald Trump did and the soon coming, which is another, another thing that I have pulled up here, but there's not much to say about it. Donald Trump's apparently allegedly going on Joe Rogan this weekend. They are on Friday, I believe this Friday and yeah, we can talk about some of that in a bit too, but I would happily discuss all of those if Kamala's interviews weren't such the opposite and it's more fun to talk about how Kamala is doing poorly than Donald Trump's doing pretty well in all these interviews. There's some funny things that come out of it and as we talk, did we talk about it? Did we talk about the flagrant interview at all? I can't even remember what we've talked about because we talked about these two motherfuckers so often. I don't remember what we've covered or what I was just talking to my son about the other day. I don't think we talked about that either. Okay. Yeah, you went on flagrant. It was hilarious and then the media coverage was like comedian laughs in Donald Trump's face. It's like, because Donald Trump was telling jokes and it's comedy podcast and they were laughing together and so yeah, it was a good time. I would recommend that one too. This is the first, I think the first election where I find myself recommending people listen to different interviews that the candidates have done just for entertainment value alone and if we get nothing out of this, at least we had the laws. Now speaking of laws, here is another one from Kamala Harris on NBC who as we know is probably voting for Kamala Harris, but here's how that went. Can you say that you were honest with the American people about what you saw in those moments with President Biden as you were with him again and again repeatedly in that time? Of course. Joe Biden is an extremely accomplished, experienced and capable in every name. Bill Gates being asked about Epstein. Everything response is a higher octave. That's the reason why you're here and he's not running for the top of the ticket. Well you'd have to ask him if that's the only reason why. What do you think? Well, I am running for President of the United States. Joe Biden is not and my presidency will be about bringing a new generation of leadership to America that is focused on the work that we need to do to invest in the ambitions and aspirations of the American people. Not the dreams? It's a judgment question. That's why I ask. Can the American people trust you in these moments even when it's maybe uncomfortable for Americans to happen? So what she's saying is we all saw Biden die on stage. We all knew that that was happening. We knew it was happening long before then and up till now you've said that he has been an amazing president. He has been completely fit even though he's stepping down because he's not. He's completely fit and I trust everything that he's done and here she's still having to carry that torch, that banner of no I'm not a liar, you're all just stupid. You're all just big dummies because you saw Biden or you didn't see Biden die. You just thought you did. What you really saw was a hero having a bad night to level with Americans in that way. So that's why I ask it. It sounds like what you're saying is you feel like you never saw anything like that from President Biden. I have worked with Joe Biden whether it could hours and hours and hours over these four years, whether it be in the situation room or the Oval Office. Joe Biden is the one who was able to bring NATO together during a crisis where for the first time in 70 years, Europe saw and has seen war. Joe Biden has done the work that has been about being a leader on what we have done to fix the work that has been about being a leader in what we have done to. That is how she says Joe Biden has done blank to fix some has been about being a leader Europe saw and has seen war. Joe Biden has done the work that has been about being a leader on what we have done to fix so much of what has been broken in terms of the economy because of Donald Trump's business management, I speak with not only sincerity, but with a real first hand account of watching him do this work. I have no reluctance in saying that. No, of course I don't. So Joe Biden was just amazing all the way up to the end and she's got to keep pushing that. God forbid any of them tell you the truth ever, but we're supposed to believe that Donald Trump's a liar. That's how you know that Donald Trump, at least to some degree, is his own man and she is the regime's choice. So she has lines to say on behalf of them and you better go out there and you better toe the line when it comes to being your own person and not throwing Joe Biden under the bus and also separating yourself from Joe Biden. Go out there and do it. You know what I mean? I have to do and then it ends up coming out like that and just to separate herself while also not throwing Joe Biden under the bus. She has to pretend like she didn't realize that Joe Biden was broken or she has to gaslight you into not realizing that Joe Biden wasn't broken while also separating herself from his failed policies and every like the current reality of America. She has to just pretend like she's been against him and also for him at the same time. And because she'd be liable then and you'd know that she was part of the lie. So she literally cannot go, she can't even half lie. She can't go, Joe Biden has been a great public. She can't go, he's been a great public servant, but you know, due to cognitive decline, it's best for America. He stepped up. She can't say that. Because then you give up, you give away everything. All or nothing. You gotta ride that out to your death or your death will come sooner. So you're a call. Now as I mentioned a moment ago, it has been confirmed that Donald Trump will be going on Joe Rogan's podcast. Joe Rogan does three hour long podcast. We talked about this a little bit last week, Dave. You still feel in the same way? Do you think that this will help or hurt Donald Trump? Do you think that there's anything that Joe or Joe Rogan will throw at Donald Trump that will throw him off enough that it could hurt him more than it will help him in the polls? Good question, dude. It could go either way. I skipped this earlier. I wanted to say it, but it kind of ties into this. The CDC announced today that McDonald's has an E. coli breakout in... Oh, sure. I just thought that that was really interesting timing on that. So that kind of reminds me of that. Yep. It's like using a little bit of the... Yep. I mean, right after the Donald Trump thing, people were, of course, digging in and found the McDonald's that Donald Trump served the food at, had a health code violation of some sort five years ago and like, "See? See? That proves something..." Evidence. Yep. Right. We'll burn it all down, but if this is like, I don't know, where do you think we're at at this point? Because if this is the extent of their October surprise that somebody said Donald... He said somebody said Donald Trump said that Hitler wasn't completely 100% evil in every single thing that he did. If that's their bombshell, that bodes well for Donald Trump, I would think. But do you think this goes farther, deeper, faster, stronger, pulsing, or sweaty, or... That can't be the last thing. That's not... That can't be the last thing. Because it wasn't... It didn't do the job. It would be the start of the thing that lasts for the next two weeks or whatever. But it's such a weak thing. It's such... Yeah. It's weaker than Russiagate. So if they dropped... You know, AI's getting pretty good. Maybe they would drop some kind of fake audio or something like that, and then we'd have to go through that. Oh, it was fake. No, it isn't. Who knows? That's true. That would be really easy to do these days, and everybody would believe it immediately. Because they already believe it just based off of somebody, put it in a meme somewhere. And that's all it takes. This is literally... I mean, I hate the term almost, but post-truth society. Like, it is kind of there. We are more tribal. It really wouldn't matter. You're kind of dug in your side, either regardless. So if you're on Trump, if you're voting for Trump enthusiastically, you're going to assume that that's fake. And if you are not, you're going to assume that that is real. It's true. And I say, neither. I say, whether it's true or false, I don't care. I don't care at all. Like the statement...so the ground-breaking bombshell of a statement is, "Hitler didn't have all bad ideas." Okay. "Hitler probably made a mean Reuben sandwich." Okay. That's not a bad idea. Just because Hitler did some things doesn't make his Reuben sandwich any less awesome. I don't think that's that big of a bombshell that anybody would say. I know that they will make it into...that means Hitler had all good ideas, but it doesn't mean that. And I think that just a commoner person who was on defense about Trump or Kamala Harris isn't going to be swayed by Donald Trump, even if we had audio, saying, "Oh, Hitler. He had some good ideas, ha-ha, whatever." Like, who gives a fuck? Maybe he was trying to say like, "Yo, man, that guy was surrounded by people that loved him. If I could just have some people who don't try to kill me, that would be great." Right. So consider it. Yup. Yeah. And maybe he said something to the effect of, "Well, at least Hitler's Secret Service wasn't trying to get him killed on rallies stages. So that'd be nice. That'd be a step in the right direction at least." Oh, no. A little bit. Oh, he demands loyalty. Oh! What a pretty shit. He's literally Hitler, because Hitler demanded loyalty too. Oh, what a jerk. Now, Dave, I think that's a good place to wrap it up. We've got some stuff to talk about in the after-party. We've got to call somebody out. And I don't think I have the right card for the after-party, so maybe I'll bring it in here as you're giving your goes. But any final thoughts on anything we've talked about today from Tim Poole to literally Hitler to Kamala Harris to Bill Gates and so on and so forth, and we're going to be behind you. Yeah. I feel like we should bring back the Bill Gates segment maybe on a weekly basis and just maybe talk about something about Bill Gates, because people still think that he's like a philanthropist. Yeah. Other than that, dude. Heating up. Two more weeks. Oh, shit. Uh-oh. Oh. Coward. Forward. Coward. It's common. All right. I can't wait to talk shit on that great American dude. Let's do it. Big fan. No. You can find me on Twitter and one of these days, maybe after the election, I'll start doing a podcast again. So, find me on YouTube. And just like Tim Poole, sometime after all the new stops, I'll get back into doing it. You can find me at a local, uh, local Delaware debate with a non-binary birthing person debating, debating of a cis-gendered Republican. That's Monday night. And, uh, yeah. Did you say that? A typical Monday night, you know. Yeah. In Delaware. Yeah. Right on. Well, you can find me at thesystemsdown.tv@tsidepod on Twitter, um, Dan@tsidepod.com is the email address, if you want to send me whatever, and, uh, wherever the systems down are sold, come join us in the after-party where we talk about did Dave Smith and Doris Kamala Harris. We're gonna, we're gonna chat about that in a bit more. So if you want more and you want to support the show, come do that and you'll get all the backlog and so much more and you'll be an awesome person. We'll love you forever or until you cancel your subscription until next time, whenever that be, no matter what comes out between now and then, we will see you here same time, wish, same place, day, maybe, or when we feel like it, and, uh, question everything. Stay uncomfortable. Be bad, have fun. We'll talk to you then. Peace. Welcome to the system. Everyone's a victim. Doesn't matter. If you're black or white, I hate you all. When it's out the system, violence is a symptom. Fighting for what's right, but somehow everyone is wrong. [MUSIC PLAYING]
