Introduction

In this episode of Armstrong & Getty On Demand, hosts Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty dive into the tumultuous events surrounding the transition of power from President Joe Biden to President Donald Trump on Inauguration Day. The conversation is laced with sharp political commentary, critiques of current administration policies, and reflections on the state of American politics.

Transition of Power and Inauguration Day

The episode opens with a lively discussion about the inauguration day, highlighting the symbolic changes and the atmosphere surrounding the event.

Donald Trump ([04:17]):

"We are live from Studio C. Dimly. Deep within the bowels of the Armstrong and Getty Communications compound, and today we're under the tutelage of our general manager, Donald J. Trump, and the revolution of common sense."

Jack Armstrong ([04:30]):

"That had a great ring to it. That's a line he threw out at the rally yesterday. Has he been hammering that line lately and I just missed it?"

Trump emphasizes a "return to common sense" as the central theme of his administration, contrasting it with the preceding administration's perceived shortcomings.

Pardons and Executive Power

A significant portion of the discussion centers around President Biden's use of presidential pardons, which Armstrong and Getty criticize as excessive and performative.

Jack Armstrong ([09:33]):

"What's truly reprehensible about what he did, including the Hunter Biden thing, and nobody's talking about this, which shocks me. It's preemptive pardons for whatever."

Donald Trump ([09:56]):

"We're turning the page on that. That's still part of the Biden era. We're turning the page on the phone in the dog poo era."

The hosts argue that Biden's blanket pardons set a dangerous precedent, undermining the rule of law and fostering a culture of impunity.

Immigration Policy and Public Opinion

The hosts delve into immigration issues, referencing a New York Times poll indicating overwhelming public support for deporting illegal immigrants with criminal records.

Donald Trump ([06:22]):

"87% of Americans want to deport those people. It's hallelujah. It's 90%. 90% of Americans think that's nuts."

Jack Armstrong ([07:04]):

"Nothing could be less controversial. And what you have to keep in mind is there are probably a few ish of these politicians who actually believe that protecting criminal illegal aliens is the right thing to do."

Trump and Armstrong critique the current administration's immigration policies, advocating for stricter enforcement and highlighting public sentiment favoring such measures.

Media Reactions and Political Commentary

The conversation shifts to media coverage and political discourse, with the hosts expressing disdain for mainstream media outlets and their portrayal of political events.

Jack Armstrong ([05:52]):

"No, that's garbage."

Donald Trump ([19:15]):

"I don't know about the current president meeting the former president on the White House steps and all the flashbulbs and stuff. That's like Hollywood crap."

Armstrong and Trump argue that media narratives are biased and fail to represent the true sentiments of the American populace, often perpetuating misinformation and sensationalism.

Listener Mailbag and Audience Interaction

The episode features interactions with listeners, presenting their concerns and critiques of current political actions.

Listener Dean ([19:23]):

"Government of the people, by the people, for the people, but the people are retarded."

Paolo ([20:57]):

"Think they might be the bad guys for insisting that we indulge their fantasy and vilifying us if we don't?"

These interactions showcase the hosts' alignment with listeners who feel disenfranchised and skeptical of governmental actions, particularly regarding executive powers and social policies.

Conclusion and Final Thoughts

As the episode draws to a close, Armstrong and Trump reflect on the potential impact of Trump's upcoming executive orders and policy changes. They express optimism about the new administration's direction while maintaining a critical stance towards the previous administration's legacy.

Donald Trump ([33:18]):

"We got a lot of news today. It's Martin Luther King Jr's birthday. ... How does mailbag look?"

Jack Armstrong ([37:15]):

"We've gone soft as a country. That's why. Jack."

The hosts conclude with a mix of humor and serious commentary, underscoring their commitment to advocating for what they deem as common sense and principled governance.

What a historic day that we get to walk you through.

[Jack Armstrong]

Yes, it is.

[Donald Trump]

We are live from Studio C. Dimly.

[Jack Armstrong]

Lit room, et cetera.

[Donald Trump]

Deep within the. Balls. Balls.

[Jack Armstrong]

Oh, hello. The first gaffe of the Trump administration.

[Donald Trump]

Years, not officially. We got a couple hours deep within the bowels of the Armstrong and Getty Communications compound, and today we're under the tutelage of our general manager, Donald J.

[Jack Armstrong]

Trump, and the revolution of common sense. That had a great ring to it. That's a line he threw out at the rally yesterday. Has he been hammering that line lately and I just missed it? Or. Or.

[Donald Trump]

No, that's.

[Jack Armstrong]

That feel like an ad lib that.

[Donald Trump]

Is leaked out as part of his inaugural address today.

[Jack Armstrong]

Okay.

[Donald Trump]

That is going to be the theme of his inaugural address, the return to common sense, which is really. What is the T shirt that you. You. You got us a couple weeks ago, end of the year? It's a cut the crab. It's just a different version of cut the crab.

[Jack Armstrong]

Yeah, I would agree. I absolutely love that theme. I hope we hang on to that. And I hope the people of America have developed the courage to insist on.

[Donald Trump]

Crap. Crap. Yeah. I want to later read from Peter Baker's New York Times piece today, which is the most favorable coverage of Trump, I think, maybe ever, treating him, for one thing, like a completely regular president, as they should. But two, there's a paragraph in there where Peter Baker writes, it turns out that many of Trump's policies are very popular in America. He writes in a paragraph as a surprise to his New York Times readers. But that is, you know, that's a return to common sense, it turns out. And we're going to go through the poll that the New York Times released as their big Sunday story yesterday on immigration. I mean, the numbers on the immigration stuff are astounding, just astounding. Of course, we all sense that. We all knew that. It's just. It's only news if you're, like, an online progressive.

[Jack Armstrong]

Indeed. And I think that the masses of Americans and more and more every day are back to my previous point, realizing that, oh, my gosh, the people that I had deferred to, because they have degrees, they have jobs at networks, they. They write for big papers, whatever, they're college professors. I thought, well, who am I to argue with them or tell them they're wrong? And people were cowed into submission. I'm hoping they're much more bold about, you know, exactly what you're talking about saying. No, that's, that's garbage.

[Donald Trump]

For instance. And I'll just hit one of these numbers now. We'll get into it later. This is from the New York Times article on Trump policies over the weekend. Do you support or oppose this deporting immigrants who are here illegally and have criminal records? As we've been saying for a long time, how could you be against this? We have cities. We have a governor in California. We have cities where it is their mission to make sure they protect known criminals who are here illegally. They'll do anything to make sure the federal government does not find out that we're hiding an illegal here who's a criminal. 87% of Americans.

[Jack Armstrong]

Oh my Lord.

[Donald Trump]

Want to deport those people. It's hallelujah. It's 90%. 90% of Americans think that's nuts.

[Jack Armstrong]

Well, in that remaining 10 to 13%, how many of them are demonstrably diagnosably mentally ill?

[Donald Trump]

Probably at least half or half.

[Jack Armstrong]

That's crazy ass.

[Donald Trump]

Please, slightest idea what the question even means. Yeah, so I mean, you know, if you follow politics at all, there's Nothing that's a 90% issue. Hardly. Kids being cute are not in a 90% issue. But so Trump would stand up there at rallies or debates or whatever and say we're going to deport the illegal legal criminals. Ooh, controversial. No, not at all.

[Jack Armstrong]

Nothing could be less controversial. And what you have to keep in mind is there are probably a few ish of these politicians who actually believe that protecting crim illegal aliens is the right thing to do. A few of them are that freaking nuts. The rest of them remember this. Their advisors of their pollsters have just told them, you know, that if you espouse this policy, that'll really help help you with the Hispanic vote. And so knowing the damage they're doing to their cities and towns, knowing the murders and rapes and robberies and burglaries that will take place, fully knowing that the Gavin newsoms of the world still protect those criminal because of some perceived political advantage it gives them. That's how morally bankrupt they are. 87%. That is fantastic. Come on America, get offline. Talk to your neighbors, form your political opinions based on what people around you think, not what some talking head demands that you think at npr, which was insufferable this morning by the way, or you know, ABC or any of your bigfoot media. Screw them all.

[Donald Trump]

Well, it's a revolution of common sense and it might actually be. Can't wait to watch it. It's gonna be interesting to watch how it unfolds. A lot of executive orders and actions going on today. We can get into some of that later. Joe Biden walking out the door pardoning more people than have ever been pardoned by any president. That's now officially true. He is the partner in chief as he heads out the door. Most of it performative around people who weren't going to be charged with anything anyway. But it's a performative act since everything is performative now. The return to normalcy. Guy got booted out because he didn't return us to normalcy.

[Jack Armstrong]

And what's truly reprehensible about what he did, including the Hunter Biden thing, and nobody's talking about this, which shocks me. It's preemptive pardons for whatever. It's like a super cloak of invisibility for any federal charge, no matter what it may be. Or that's crazy. If you want to pardon somebody for something specific for which they've been convicted or whatever, that's a pardon. We can argue about it. But this, this superpower, this force field of their pardon for everything, whatever, whenever it happened. What the hell is that? That is utterly unprecedented.

[Donald Trump]

Yeah. So we got a lot of news today. It's Martin Luther King Jr's birthday. I don't even know if we'll be able to get around to that. But there is some. Some things I'd like to say on that. They, as you know, moved the inauguration indoors, which sucks. If you were planning to go there, man. I. Somebody was telling me yesterday, mom, dad and. And three kids, a family of five was going airfare, hotels, whole thing, and they ain't gonna see nothing. So there's an arena they opened up for people to go watch on the big screen, and Trump said he'll swing by later. But what's an arena hold 30,000 people? The basketball arena. There's gonna be like 400,000 people there. So. Yeah, most of you ain't gonna get nothing out of it, which really sucks. But what are you gonna do? Weather's weather. How does mailbag look?

[Jack Armstrong]

It's. It's fine.

[Donald Trump]

Oh, we didn't start the show officially, did we?

[Jack Armstrong]

No.

[Donald Trump]

So excited about ymca.

[Jack Armstrong]

Excited about the executive order that's going to establish that there are men and there are women. End of discussion. Halle freaking Louie.

[Donald Trump]

Starting today, probably, yeah. Awesome. I'm Jack Armstrong. He's Joe Getty on this. It is Monday, January 20th. It's a special date it's in the constitution, the year 2025. We are Armstrong and Getty and we approve of this program.

[Donald Trump]

Shouldn't be a surprise. Anybody who's listened to us for years. But I don't. I don't have much truck for pageantry and particularly don't like it around our power because it's all monarchical. It's all. It's all, you know, vestiges of kings, all this. And so Kamala Harris and her husband, the nanny slapper, just rolled up to the White House for the last time and got out of the limo and met Joe, or Joe Biden and Jill standing there on the red carpet. And they come forward and they kiss and they put you. And everybody's around with cameras. I hate that sort of thing. I think it's so anti everything we're about. If the others.

[Jack Armstrong]

I'm sure their red hot hatred for each other at least warmed the patio briefly.

[Donald Trump]

Now, the best part is they're going in the White House now. How are they even going to pretend to go through the motions of, you know, one last conversation when it's known that they hate each other?

[Jack Armstrong]

May I inscribe on your headstone? He didn't have much truck for pageantry. Would that be all right? Get you a nice marble one. Oh, I know it. I know it. The peaceful transfer of power is absolutely worth celebrating and. And a certain amount of it's okay. But you're right, it does lapse into the monarchical feel.

[Donald Trump]

Yeah, a lot of it is you, you. It looks like Buckingham Palace, Royal family stuff, which is all performative. It has no power whatsoever.

[Jack Armstrong]

Right? Yeah. Well, you want to talk about not pageantry? I started my day by getting dog crap on my iPhone, so, yeah. Yeah. Kind of a poor start to the tr. And I have a cold. When are we going to make you America healthy Again, it hasn't started yet. Huh.

[Donald Trump]

Why was your dog suitcasing your iPhone?

[Jack Armstrong]

So the evildoers couldn't find it? No, I was walking him in the pre dawn cold and listening to NPR because I was kind of curious to see how they were handling inauguration day. And I think in 15 minutes I heard January 6th referenced four times. I mean, that is obviously their obsession. But it was like tucked in my jacket pocket and when he unleashed, I leaned over to clean it up and it slid out of my jacket pocket and took an unfortunate carom and then right into the pile.

[Donald Trump]

What did you say and or think when there in the early morning, walking your dog, you bent over and your phone fell into a pile of dog poo?

[Jack Armstrong]

I believe I said out loud. Are you effing kidding? But obviously I spoke.

[Donald Trump]

I hate moments like that.

[Jack Armstrong]

Well, and I thought that, well, there it is. It's cold and usually he will go at least twice. And so I think I can't get the. It was so logistical and microbial nightmare. And then taking the case off my phone so I could get the dog poo off of it, I tried off the lens protector.

[Donald Trump]

Oh, that.

[Jack Armstrong]

You know, the screensaver thing, whatever you call those things. And so I got to do that later as a poor start to the day. I blame Trump. Anyway, here's your freedom loving quote.

[Donald Trump]

We're turning the page on that. That's still part of the Biden era. We're turning the page on the phone in the dog poo era.

[Jack Armstrong]

You're right. You know what? I've misinterpreted it so badly. Clearly this is the last moments. That's Joe Biden's America. You get dog ass all over your iPhone with Joe Biden in charge. Are you kidding me? Come on. It's time to wipe our iPhones clean and usher in a revolution of common sense. This is from Ronald Reagan's inaugural address in 1981, sent along by Roy the Marine. Quote, above all, we must realize that no arsenal or no weapon in the arsenals of the world is so formidable as the will and courage of free men and women. It is a weapon our adversaries in today's world do not have. It is a weapon that we as Americans do have. Let that be understood by those who practice terrorism and prey upon their neighbors.

[Donald Trump]

So the, I wouldn't call it pageantry. So the, the stuff that is delineated as this is how we do it, that is all about the transfer of power. I get. That's, that's, that's perfectly appropriate that we do that. Aside from that one day that we won't mention, it's always gone very, very swimmingly, the transfer of power. And that is cool and unprecedented in world history for this length of time.

[Jack Armstrong]

Yes.

[Donald Trump]

I don't know about the current president meeting the former president on the White House steps and all the flashbulbs and stuff. That's like Hollywood crap.

[Jack Armstrong]

Yeah, yeah. Here's your mailbag. Drop us a note. Mailbagarmstrongandgetti.com not quite as inspiring as Reagan's quote. This is from online thinker Osho, sent along by Dean. Government of the people, by the people, for the people, but the people are retarded. See, I don't use the R word. It's very cynical. Dean. Send better quotes. Gents writes Nick I and many other citizens are sickened every few years by presidential pardons in the 11th hour.

[Donald Trump]

Oh my God.

[Jack Armstrong]

Maybe an international criminal court can put the screws to Fauci since his crimes were against the entire planet. Also, for reforms, I think no exiting president should be allowed to issue pardons between election day and inauguration day. Pardons before election day would be valuable voter information.

[Donald Trump]

No kidding. That's a way to tweak the law.

[Jack Armstrong]

Yeah, sure. You know, I'm. I'm thinking over how constitutional it is because it's a constitutional power.

[Donald Trump]

Right.

[Jack Armstrong]

So it'd have to be an amendment.

[Donald Trump]

The founders might say. Well, that ignores. The whole point is that we're. They're supposed to be able to do some things they need to do there at the end, outside of politics. And this would put it back in the arena of politics.

[Jack Armstrong]

Right. Alternately, we should adopt a system like Texas uses where a board recommends pardons and the governor approves them or not.

[Donald Trump]

Something different than what we're doing, I'd say.

[Jack Armstrong]

Yeah, I would agree. As an expression of dissatisfaction with the current system. Amen to that. Paolo writes nothing earth shaking here. I'm just stating the obvious in reference to Trump's plan to make men men and women women. I think we can boil down every conv complaint of the trans right to one thing. They want to be treated in every way as if their sex were opposite or what it is if we don't oblige, we're the bad guys for not indulging their fantasy. Think they might be the bad guys for insisting that we indulge their fantasy and vilifying us if we don't? Yeah, I would.

[Donald Trump]

We didn't even mention Friday or today. Yet Joe Biden declared a constitutional amendment through Twitter on Friday like a crazy person.

[Jack Armstrong]

A thing. Armstrong and Gettysburg.

[Donald Trump]

In his farewell speech to the nation, President Biden defended his administration's accomplishments by ending every sentence with you ungrateful bastards. Man. How about that opening on Saturday Night Live where they mocked MSNBC and other cable news channels for jumping at every Trump troll.

[Jack Armstrong]

Quite amusing.

[Donald Trump]

Yeah, that was good. I thought so. So, Joe Biden. This is Inauguration Day. I assume everybody knows that. And Trump becomes president at noon. It's the end. The last hours of the Biden administration with the dispatch saying some very harsh things about Joe Biden as he heads out the door. We'll get to that in just a minute. But Joe Biden did a Yet another farewell address yesterday and said this.

[Jack Armstrong]

For some reason, we must hold on a hope. We must stay engaged. Must always keep to faith in a better day to come. I'm not going anywhere. What?

[Donald Trump]

What does that mean?

[Jack Armstrong]

I'm not kidding.

[Donald Trump]

Okay. What does that mean? Dude, I think actuary tables and your doctor might have something to say about that. And God and the Grim Reaper and the Constitution and your political party, which has no interest in you whatsoever. And a country who can't wait to see you go as you leave with the lowest approval ratings of anybody but Nixon. So you're not going anywhere. What does that even freaking mean?

[Jack Armstrong]

That was just the last spasms of defiance from a defeated man.

[Donald Trump]

Charles C.W. cook tweeted out, Just five hours until the 28th Amendment is repealed. It had a good run. That's responding to Joe Biden's weird. Out of nowhere. Nobody has the slightest idea what he's talking about. Joe Biden just tweets out on Friday that the 28th. The 28th Amendment has been ratified. The Equal Rights Amendment has been ratified. It is the 28th amendment and is the law of the land. And nobody has any idea what he's talking about. It's not true in any way whatsoever. The archivist who keeps track of what's an amendment or not had to weigh in immediately and say, no, it's not. It's just. It's so crazy. It's so flipping crazy.

[Jack Armstrong]

What?

[Donald Trump]

Part of what's so crazy about it is it was. It didn't get hardly any mainstream coverage because I think everybody felt like, I don't know what he's doing. Let's just wait till Monday and move on with the next guy.

[Jack Armstrong]

Well, yeah, because it would take some serious investigation to figure out who the hell did this and why and how did it get through. What? And everybody's thinking, what's the point? He's senile. He's obviously not the President. Somebody in his staff. Let's just move on.

[Donald Trump]

Yeah. Nobody's taking it seriously to declare unilaterally.

[Jack Armstrong]

That an amendment has passed. That's bizarre behavior.

[Donald Trump]

Very, very crazy.

[Jack Armstrong]

Yeah. As Charlie Cook of the National Review said, I'm trying to get inside the head of anyone, Biden included, if he's aware of it, who thought it would be a good idea for the President of the United States to tweet out that he was unilaterally declaring that the Constitution had been. Been amended. It's so deliciously humiliating.

[Donald Trump]

Yeah. So. Nope. Nobody's really sure what that whole thing is. And I assume that will be in a book someday explaining that. Um, Sarah Isger writes for the Dispatch. She's a Harvard lawyer type and she was in the Trump Justice Department first time around. She's got a piece out today. Not gonna read the whole thing, but it's really good. The Quiet Lawlessness of Joe Biden, in which she writes, he was elected to restore norms, but he has done more damage to the rule of law than any president in our nation's history. And in case you don't know Sarah Isger's act, she is not a bomb chucker. She is a thoughtful, reasonable person and she goes through president by president, things Lincoln did, things Andrew Jackson did, things George W. Bush thing, and has a comparison. So those are all each individual things from different presidents that they did or really pushing our norms or went beyond the law. But she has an example of Joe Biden doing the same. He did as many as all those presidents combined in terms of ignoring laws and doing things he's not supposed to do and things he shouldn't say. It's really quite amazing.

[Jack Armstrong]

I would love to hear more of that. It's absolutely worth it.

[Donald Trump]

Maybe, maybe we'll read that later. But yeah, she says he has done more norm wrecking than any president in our nation's history. Jonah Goldberg, responding to that piece because he worked for the Dispatch too, said Biden is leaving office, dropping one lawless norm defying justly impeachable, undemocratic transgression after another. That would be bad enough, but these are all precedents for the successor he thinks is a threat to democracy. It's reckless, spiteful, and incandescently stupid.

[Jack Armstrong]

Wow.

[Donald Trump]

Jonah Goldberg came out on Friday after Biden tweeted out, hey, this is another amendment. We got another amendment to the Constitution. Equal Rights Amendment. Remember when we argued about that in the 70s? It's. It's part of the Constitution now, everybody.

[Jack Armstrong]

I just passed it.

[Donald Trump]

What? General Goldberg said he should be impeached over this before Monday. I realize we only got three days left, but he should be impeached over this. They should run it through and they should boot it from office, because you can't do that. I mean, that is as outside your oath as you can practically get.

[Jack Armstrong]

Well, right. And that is the thing that bothers me so much, is that there were so many times that he openly defied the Constitution, and I suspect knowing that he would be spanked and sat down by the courts, but did it nonetheless just for the political effect it would have or the PR effect that it would have in a way that's just awful. I mean. Cause he established the precedent. And I think, because this sort of thing used to be very, very rare, he established the precedent that, look, you violate the Constitution as many times as you want and hope you get one past the justices, which, you know, the idea that he would be comfortable or anybody really, with that sort of power in Trump's hands, it just reveals the depth of their hypocrisy.

[Donald Trump]

In case we didn't make this clear, you hadn't heard it. President Biden has pardoned Dr. Fauci. He's pardoned of anything he could have possibly done. I don't think he was going to be prosecuted, which makes it performative. But he pardoned Dr. Fauci. General Milley, same situation. I don't think he's going to be prosecuted for anything. And members of the House January 6th Committee and their staff, Jonathan Turley, the law professor they have on Fox all the time, said with his declaration that the ERA Amendment is suddenly part of the Constitution. It is the latest use of presidential powers as a type of performative art, which is clearly true. I don't even know what to say about this. And then you combine that with that clip we just played where he does that speech yesterday. Play that again in light of what you just heard. Play that again.

[Jack Armstrong]

We must hold on a hope. We must stay engaged. Must always keep to faith in a better day to come. I'm not going anywhere. I'm not kidding. Why?

[Donald Trump]

Who are those dead ender last gaspers who were there to even witness that speech and then cheered that? Who the hell are you? Wow.

[Jack Armstrong]

Democrats and progressives are, if nothing else, obedient. And they were given their marching orders by Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi back in June, July. That we are going to get the senile guy out at the price of pretending he's a great man and we love him at every moment. We will pretend he's a great man and we love him. And so when the walking mummy made that vow, wherever he was yesterday, the obedient Democrats are like, oh, that's right. We got to do this for a couple more days. You're a great man and we love you. No, don't go away because we need you so much. Oh, my God, when will he leave? They said to themselves, he said he wasn't going anywhere.

[Donald Trump]

That means he's going to chain himself to the Oval Office desk. They're going to have to get cutters.

[Katie Green]

And, and get him out of there.

[Donald Trump]

Who knows what he actually meant? But the incoming president. This has been announced already. Trump will suspend the security clearances of all 51 of those intelligence officials who signed on to that letter saying that the Hunter Biden laptop story was classic Russian disinformation, which includes quite a few people that. Well, a bunch of people that I hate. James Clapper, Michael Hayden. I don't care if those people lose. I don't know that I want Leon Panetta to learn his. To lose his security clearance so he can't comment on what's going on in the world. But he did sign on to that letter.

[Jack Armstrong]

Yes, he did. That was. That was horrible.

[Donald Trump]

So.

[Jack Armstrong]

Especially because the FBI was fully convinced of its authenticity when that letter was written. They're liars and cheaters. You're gonna. You're gonna condemn Trump for playing fast and loose or January 6th or whatever else. You know what? All right, fine. Let's start calling fouls. That was a foul. Foul.

[Donald Trump]

Trump is gonna. That's gonna be one of the executive orders today. But is he also going to jump on a whole bunch of stuff around immigration? And that is going to get started right away. And we've got more on that a little bit later. The first of all, rounding up of illegals with criminal records, which, according to even the Biden White house, is about 600,000 people.

[Jack Armstrong]

Wow.

[Donald Trump]

Known criminals that are here, that if you live in, you know, California or various cities in California, you're protected from the. We'll hide you. We'll help hide you. Because we. We think it would be awful to kick you out, even though 90% of Americans think they ought to go, according to the New York Times.

[Jack Armstrong]

Just incredible.

[Donald Trump]

It is incredible.

[Jack Armstrong]

Just incredible. Well, Jack, throughout the day today, we'll be sprinkling in inauguration trivia, including this. William Henry Harrison recited the longest inauguration speech in history on a bitterly cold day, didn't wear a coat, blah, blah, blah, came down with a cold, turned into pneumonia. Then he died because he spoke so long in the cold. Except he didn't. He probably died from typhoid from drinking Washington's tainted water supply, which ultimately led to his death in April of that year, 1841. That number one piece of inauguration trivia is probably false. We've been hearing it since we were little children.

[Donald Trump]

It is something that. He was only president a month, though, before he died.

[Jack Armstrong]

That is something.

[Donald Trump]

After you go through a whole presidential election. Of course, they weren't quite the same back then as they are now, but did you. I didn't see any of The Trump rally yesterday. But he had a big rally and it was like, you know, his election rallies and everything like that. And Elon was on the stage with his son X. His son's name is X. And I don't know how he chose this of his 12 kids to be on stage with him but. But some cute little boy that I don't know how if he'd ever met his dad before. I have no idea.

[Jack Armstrong]

Oh, wow. Wow.

[Donald Trump]

I don't think much of Elon is a parent. Big fan of him as a car and rocket designer and not so much as a parent, but musical. X, Kid Rock, Billy Ray Size Cyrus, Lee Greenwood and the Village People all performed yesterday at the Trump rally. The Village People got a whole bunch of pushback. The lead guy for the Village People, I think he's the cop. He's in law enforcement. Cut him a break. Huh? How about his public service us?

[Jack Armstrong]

He's been retired from law enforcement for like 30 years.

[Donald Trump]

He. He got a bunch of pushback from people because they had sued Trump for using their music and Trump just kept using it anyway and paying the fines. But now I think because he wants the exposure is on board and actually showed up and they played live yesterday and they're going to again at a bunch of the balls tonight. The inaugural balls tonight.

[Jack Armstrong]

Wow.

[Donald Trump]

I wonder how much they got paid or they thought they were going to make out of. Dude, this is the best thing this has happened to us in 40 years.

[Jack Armstrong]

I'm just pleased to see that the Indian is on board as well. Representing America's native peoples in this inauguration.

[Donald Trump]

Right. I want a fake dress up gay pop group that looks like America.

[Jack Armstrong]

Right. That's what.

[Donald Trump]

Construction worker, an Indian, a cop missing one singing.

[Jack Armstrong]

Oh, cowboy.

[Donald Trump]

Cowboy, exactly.

[Holocaust Remembrance Speaker]

Yes.

[Donald Trump]

But the cowboy cowboy.

[Jack Armstrong]

Yes.

[Donald Trump]

Yeah. So we'll bring you some stuff that happens throughout the day today. I do feel bad for anybody who traveled there because I know some people who traveled all the way to D.C. and ain't cheap to book flights in hotel rooms and ain't gonna happen. It's gonna be indoors.

[Jack Armstrong]

Oh, for inauguration weekend, please. It's like the super bowl weekend.

[Donald Trump]

Yeah, I, I understand. I mean you're talking last week. You can't have people out there in the cold. I watched a couple of football weekend where people were out in the cold every bit as cold or colder for five hours willingly.

[Jack Armstrong]

And seemed I was that if you're in the midst of an enormous massive humanity, it warms you.

[Donald Trump]

All those people in Buffalo last night, they didn't. They weren't dying or in Kansas City. So not sure why you have to move it indoors, but whatever.

[Jack Armstrong]

We've gone soft as a country. That's why. Jack.

[Joe Getty]

Soft.

[Jack Armstrong]

Soft. America.

[Donald Trump]

We've got Katie's headlines on the way. Stay here. Armstrong and Getty.

Hello, iHeart listener. We have a confession to make. Both iHeart and this commercial you're listening to right now would probably sound a heck of a lot better on the new Roku Pro Series tv. It's got side firing speakers that fill your room with sound, Dolby Atmos audio that puts you right in the middle of the entertainment, and the ability to pair seamlessly with your home theater sound systems that already have surround sound and booming bass. If all that sounds too good to be true, it'll sound even better on the new Roku Pro series. Your hearing isn't better. Your TV is.

[Jack Armstrong]

Wasn't that delicious?

[Joe Getty]

So good.

[Jack Armstrong]

On January 27, it is international Holocaust Remembrance Day. We remember the great horrors, the evil of the Holocaust. Millions and millions of Jews were slaughtered during the Nazi reign of terror.

And to ensure it never happens again. We have proudly partnered with the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews.

[Donald Trump]

This is too good. We're grabbing the audio. Back in 2020. As Trump was leaving office and Biden was about to take over, Biden was interviewed by Jake Tapper and they were worried about all the pardons that Trump was going to issue on his way out the door. Biden said it concerns me in terms of what kind of precedent it sets. He said, you're not going to see in our administration that kind of approach to pardons. These people are all completely freaking phony liars. You cannot hold politicians in enough side eyed contempt.

[Jack Armstrong]

Amen.

[Donald Trump]

God.

[Jack Armstrong]

Just look at the policies. God, they're such liars.

[Donald Trump]

They really are.

[Jack Armstrong]

Let's figure out who's reporting what on this Inauguration Day. It's the lead story with Katie Green.

[Katie Green]

Katie, thank you, guys. Speaking of pardons, ABC Biden preemptively pardons Anthony Fauci, Mark Milley and January 6th committee members.

[Donald Trump]

There you go. The old preemptive pardon. Okay. That's a thing.

[Jack Armstrong]

Inappropriate and or utterly unnecessary in all cases.

[Katie Green]

Also ABC News News, among first executive orders to be signed by Trump will be an order to rename Gulf of Mexico to Gulf of America.

[Donald Trump]

Yes, starting today. It's a Gulf of America. Take it.

[Jack Armstrong]

Anybody calls it the Gulf of Mexico, just attack them physically because they don't love this country like you do. It's a joke. Please don't attack anyone.

[Donald Trump]

All for that. I can't believe we went this long calling it the Gulf of Mexico. Why would we do that?

[Katie Green]

This one threw me through a little bit of a loop. This is from Breitbart and it's only because you guys mentioned this Trump to swear in with personal Bible and Lincoln Bible during inauguration. And I thought he's not, he's not signed. He's not going to swear in with his Trump Bible. No, it's a Bible mom. It's from his mom.

[Jack Armstrong]

Oh, okay. Trump is going to be wearing the Trump sneakers, the solid gold high tops.

[Katie Green]

I hope so.

[Donald Trump]

Trump just showed up to the White House, stood there with Joe Biden, shook hands side by side, I believe the first time that they've locked eyes since that infamous debate.

[Katie Green]

From Fox News, colleges and educational groups are offering advice to students for Inauguration Day anxiety.

[Donald Trump]

Oh please.

[Jack Armstrong]

You people are so soft. They should be mocked. Mockery teaches morals. That's a Latin phrase that I can never remember. Just if you run into people like that because I was just ran into a similar article about the, the counseling and forest crying sessions that were being recommended and all sorts of forest crying parties with your spirit guide and just please mock people like that.

[Katie Green]

From the LA Times. LA fires destroyed at least 11 schools and 30 child care facilities project camp working to bring normaly to kids living in pop up tents.

[Donald Trump]

11 schools have burnt down.

[Katie Green]

That's something from the New York Post Special place in hell for these guys. By the way. Two people busted for using a fire truck they bought at auction to impersonate firefighters in the Palisades fire so they.

[Donald Trump]

Could do what they were.

[Katie Green]

They were two people, one of which was convicted of arson that came down from Oregon and they were. Yeah. So this is not a meme, but I want to let you guys know that we've started a butter movement. I got several emails over the weekend from listeners sending me pictures of their homemade butter that they made.

[Donald Trump]

Good for you.

[Katie Green]

After our One More Thing podcast making a comeback.

[Jack Armstrong]

Wow. Maybe you can start a butter themed tick tock page. Oh, never mind. Sorry.

[Katie Green]

And speaking of tick tock from the Babylon Bee Gen Z upset about Tick tock band for 4.3 seconds which is the maximum amount of time they can focus thanks to TikTok.

[Donald Trump]

Yeah, that. That dude they had on Saturday Night Live on the news segment talking about that. That was fantastic. That was really good. I'm sorry, what were you saying again, Jay? I can't pay attention. The whole TikTok thing is weird. Both presidents are wrong. They are ignoring the law. Both of them are.

[Jack Armstrong]

Yeah. I want to talk about what Trump has said recently and try to figure out what the heck's going through his head at this point.

[Donald Trump]

The Supreme Court ruled 90 you have to follow the law and neither one of them want to follow the law. It's interesting.
