You are. Come on in. What a day. What a day we have ahead, huh? Happy Columbus Day. I'm just checking your stocks, and it looks like today will be an update for all the reasons that you already know. Kind of exciting. Soon as we get our comments going, we'll give you the show you deserve. So grab a seat, make sure your beverage is filled, because you know what time it is. That's right. All right, let's try this and that. Oh, what a day. All right, people. Good morning, everybody, and welcome to the highlight of human civilization. It's called Coffee with Scott Adams, and you've never had a better day. But if you'd like to experience levels that nobody can even understand with their tiny, shiny human brains, you need for that is a copper mug or a glass of tanker Jell, a canteen jugger flask of any kind. Fill it with your favorite liquid. I like coffee. And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure, the dopamine of the day, the thing that makes everything better. It's called the simultaneous sip, and it happens right now. Go. I don't want to say that that was better than a hostage release, but it's right up there. All right, as is my new tradition, I'm going to start with a reframe. I tried to pick one that was relevant to today's big news, which we'll get to in a moment, but this is another reframe from my book, reframe your brain. And it goes like this. The usual frame, the way people usually think, is that the best worldview is the one that's true. Right? The best worldview is the one that's true. Here's the reframe. The best worldview is the one that predicts the best. It predicts the best. Does that sound relevant? Well, it is relevant, because 2016, when I decided to back Trump, I was predicting, and my prediction went like this. He definitely seems to love America and always has, so his heart's in the right place. He definitely has skills that other people just don't have. He just has skills they don't have, and that those skills could be really important to the country because he could do things that we need to get done that nobody could get done. So I predicted that his love of country, his love of winning, his extreme toolbox of skills would get us to a good place. Now, was that based on reality and truth, or was it just predictive? Well, other people said, hey, I think his personality and character are unsuitable to be president, therefore he will steal our democracy and Just steal money from the treasury for himself, and he's only in it to win it for himself. Was that predictive? It was not. That was not predictive. So it's easier if you release on what's true because then you end up fighting about the details of what's true and focus on what's predictive. Follow the money. That's predictive. If you thought that Trump was a big old narcissist who just wants everybody to love him and look good, that's why he works so hard. I. That's not a negative. That's why he works so hard. I have the same situation. I want to be appreciated for what I've done for other people. That's my big payoff in life. So I will work hard so that somebody will say, oh, I'm really glad you did that thing, whatever that thing was. So, yeah, the prediction is that people like Trump are going to get a lot of shit done. Happy Columbus Day. Let's talk about those hostages freed. You already know the news. All 20 living hostages have been released. There's hope that bodies will be returned, but that might be a little more complicated. 2000 or so Hamas people, I guess, are getting released. In return, we won't talk about them too much, because today is more about happiness. Trump flew over to Israel, which turned out to be a brilliant move. He didn't have to, but he did. And, wow, did he get a. Did he get a hero's welcome like I've never seen before? Netanyahu praised him like I've never seen anybody praise Trump at all and all deserved. He said no one moved the world so decisively as Trump. He said, I believe that the close cooperation between our two nations, combining Israel's military pressure and Trump's unmatched global leadership, achieved this historic moment. Well, here's something that Israel figured out and Netanyahu certainly figured out. There's no such thing as praising Trump too much. I think you've all figured that out, too, right? It's not like he says, oh, that's enough. Really? You can tune it down a little bit. Oh, well, thank you. I appreciate it. But you don't have to do all that. The more you do, the better it is. You can lay it out as thick as you want, and he'll just think, is there any more of that? Can I get a little more of that? I do like that about him. Anyway, he was hailed as a colossus and a giant of Jewish history by the Israeli Parliament. So here are just some things in no particular order. Number one. Does anybody think that any other president could have gotten this done? No. No, you don't. But poor little Biden and Biden's little dingleberries that are still hanging around him, they're trying to claim that all Trump did was finalize the deal that Biden got working. Can you believe the gall, the fact that they would even try, that they would even try to give Biden credit for this. Oh my goodness. So meanwhile, while the so called Hitler is finding peace for Israel, the Democrats are still, they're still whining about him being an authoritarian Hitler while we're all watching the authoritarian Hitler bring peace to the entire world. The Democrats could not be losing harder than they are today. Today is peak, peak losing for Democrats. They just got to shut up at this point. Just, just let it go, right? Just let it go. There's nothing you should say right now except thank you, Mr. President. Some people asked reasonably, why are all 20 of the people released male? I think it's two factors. One is the women. The, all the remaining women are dead. That would be a fact, unfortunately. I don't know if they were killed in particular or killed because they didn't want them talking. That's the thing I worry about the most. Were they killed because they were abused and they didn't want them to go public? Maybe. But it could also be because the earlier rounds of releases focused on women and children and elderly and they just leave the, the healthy male military age people for last. So it's probably a combination of bad things happen to women, but also that they negotiated the women out earlier. Probably both. Anyway, so Trump gets a, you know, standing ovation, but when he mentioned Biden, the people laughed. They actually laughed at even the mention of Biden. And then when he mentioned Obama being the, the worst or second worst president after Biden, they clapped. They actually clapped the Israeli Knesset, they clapped for Obama being a terrible president. And they laughed, they literally laughed at a mention of Biden being the president. And they, they stood and gave a standing ovation. And now Netanyahu wants to give, wants to nominate Trump for the highest award in Israel. So maybe this whole authoritarian thing is working out. Seems to be working out pretty well. Anyway, here's what Trump said in his speech, which was hilarious, by the way. So his speech he talked about, he kind of teased Netanyahu for running on too long because he's trying to get to this other big meeting in Egypt where all the, all the big Middle east countries will meet and decide the fate of the Middle East. So I guess he's terribly late for that. But he's late because they're praising him. So it's not the worst thing in the world. But when he got to speak after, he, you know, made fun of Bibi talking too long and said some fun things, he said, generations from now, this will be remembered as the moment that everything began to change. Like the USA right now. It will be the golden age of Israel and the golden age of the Middle East. Well, here we are. It's a golden age. And he says everybody's loving Israel again. He said things were getting tough the last several months because, of course, Israel was taking brutal criticism for the way they were executing the war. But now it's looking like. It just looks like a victory. You know, winning. Winning solves a lot of problems. Winning does. And then Trump started selling the Abraham Accords hard because he's the salesman in chief. If he can get that done. Oh, my goodness. So I guess there are four Middle east countries that are part of that Abraham Accords, and then there are a bunch that could be, but aren't, but would like to be, maybe, and this probably opens the door for that. So Trump's trying to sell it hard, you know, get in. Get in on that Abraham Accord as soon as you can. And Trump is actually even promising that he thinks he can make a deal with Iran, not part of the Abraham Accords, but separately. And he thinks Iran's ready to do a deal, mostly because they've been so weakened by recent events that they would get flexible. But I don't know about that, but maybe. All right, here's some of the highlights of his speech as well. The part I like best is you might know that Netanyahu is. Got some legal problems. He's being accused of, I don't know, bribery or corruption or something. And that's on hold because the war. And so Trump's up there absorbing, like, the maximum amount of praise, and he's praising Netanyahu, and then he turns to the president, which is different than the prime minister, of course, turns to the president of Israel, who's on the dais, and he says that he thinks that Netanyahu should get a pardon, and that's the guy that decides the pardon. And I thought he was going to get the president of Israel to agree to a pardon right in front of us, but he didn't take the bait. He might. But watching Trump make that play to see if he can get the pardon for Netanyahu was one of the Strongest leadership things I've ever seen in my life. That was so impressive. Even if he doesn't get it, that was so impressive. How many times have I told you that one of the magic tricks that Trump does for persuasion is that if you're his enemy, you're really his enemy. Like, he's really, he's going to take you down, you're going to get law fared. You know, your country might get attacked, you might be get a bad nickname. If you're on his bad side, you're really on his bad side. But as I often tell you, if you get on his good side, he won't just say, you're a good person, he will change your life. And this is one of the things he could have done and maybe he still will do for Netanyahu. So Netanyahu became flexible. I'm not sure that he was always flexible in this process, but he did. Netanyahu did decide to conform to what Trump wanted him to do, and that worked out. So now they're best friends. And what does Trump do? Does he just say, you know, I'll give you some award. That's what Nanyahu is doing for Trump, right? Give you an award. Well, that's great. I love. The awards are good. But what would be more valuable to Netanyahu than a pardon? And who would have more influence and who would be more in the moment to read the room and know that this is the moment to insert that idea? Only Trump. There's not another president in the entire world who would have read that moment. Right. And said, wow, this is, this is something I could do that's beyond, you know, what Netanyahu would ever expect me to do, and I might be able to pull it off. I, I feel, I would love to know what was going on in the mind of the Israeli president. I wonder if he thought to himself, I should just do it, because obviously he doesn't want to do it, or he would have done it already. But I wonder if he just thought to himself, this would be such a moment. I mean, the moment would have been extraordinary. Yeah. Imagine if the president had just turned and said, Mr. President, I have not, you know, fully considered this. But in recognition of the day, in recognition of what you've done for us, I'm going to give you that. That could have happened. That would have been amazing. Boy, Trump knows how to create a moment or get close to a moment. All right, but here's, here's what I feel, and I hope that the rest of you feel it, too, as I posted on ACTS cryptically. But I only wanted the people who understood to understand it. I don't want everybody to understand it. And my. My post on X was just this. This is why. That's it. This is why. What I mean, of course, for the few of you who don't know exactly what that means is that in 2016, when I decided to, I didn't know I was doing it at the time, but quickly I figured it out when I decided that I would throw away my entire social life to back Trump, and when I eventually threw away my entire career, which even before I was canceled, my licensing business and, you know, book sales, it went to. Went to almost nothing because I was supporting Trump. I sacrificed everything. I sacrificed my social life, I sacrificed my career, I sacrificed my reputation. I may have sacrificed my health. And I did that because I believed it was worth it. Today's the day. Today's the day. All right? And I'm really happy I lived long enough to see was worth. Was worth it. Not just for this, but it was worth. It was worth it to be right. It's worth it to. All right, so, as you know, Trump doesn't become president without a hundred things going the right way. You know, I, I like to think I might have been one of the hundred things that went the right way so that he could get elected and we could get something done, save the country, maybe save the world. But it wasn't free, it wasn't cheap, it wasn't easy. But every one of you who's watching right now probably shared a little bit in that pain. Probably every one of you said, you know what? You're not going to tell me who to vote for. You know what? You're not going to manipulate me. You know what? I'm going to do what I think is right, and I'm going to follow this all the way. You all did that, all the MAGA supporters, you all took a personal and professional risk for the benefit of the country, and you knew that it was going to cost you dearly. You lost family members, lost your daughter. Somebody says, yeah, a lot of you lost family members, you lost friends, you lost jobs. It cost you money. And you were right in the end. In the end, you were right. You bet. The right way. So, you know, even though you could say, Scott, you know, this is more about Israel than it is about the United States, and it is, but it seems to be an emotional touch point that seems to touch everything. It seems to touch the world, including the United States. Most Heavily. And what it does is it. It just puts Trump in a whole different category where now he can do even more things that were impossible, because people are going to look at him and say, okay, you did the impossible one time after another. What else can you do? And we're probably going to find out. Maybe it means we get better trade deals with China. Maybe, maybe you can wrap something up with Russia. That's going to be a tough one. But you know that I've been all in since 2016. All in. I bet it all. I just bet everything. I bet everything to get to this point. The golden age. So here we are. Here we are. So I don't even know if I want to talk about the news today. It just feels so good to be on the right side of history, because you never know. You never know if you're going to be on the right side of history. But, boy, are we on the right side of history right now. So unless there are aliens in that comet, maybe things are going to look good anyway. We have some background on why Hamas finally caved. I guess Egypt and Qatar were going hard at him, saying it was the last chance. Turkey was going hard at Hamas, telling them, you better get this done. And they were getting a lot of pressure from their own people. So basically it got to the point where everybody outside of Hamas was telling Hamas, you gotta end this. There was essentially nobody left on their side, so it got done. So being in the right place at the right time helps. But it still had to be Trump. Only Trump could have gotten it done. And then the last person to agree was Netanyahu. And Trump bullied him into saying yes. And I'm sure Netanyahu is happy about it. Now, here's what Charlemagne the God said about it. He said, donald Trump shows me what's politically possible. Now, remember Charlamagne, the gods Democrat? He said, donald Trump shows me what's politically possible. Trump shows me what presidents can do if they want to do it. And he says, it's not about what can't be done, it's about who has the political will to do it. So that seems to be the frame that some Democrats are starting to enter the. Okay, okay, this is true, that Trump can do things that other people can't do. That is the number one thing. I wanted to sell the country the number one thing. He can do things that other people can't do. And if you, if you ever need those things to get done, there's only one person to do it, as far as I know. So Charlamagne sees it too. He says, oh, my goodness. Who you pick really makes a difference did this time. Don't you wonder what the Democrats are going to have to protest? So they're, they're left to protest the, the government closing, which is their fault. Just think about this. The biggest complaint that they have now is that Trump is too strong a leader. He's like a strongman dictator type. But that's why this got done. Even the people who don't like him being an authoritarian strongman dictator will completely understand that none of this would happen without him being that person, because he pushed everybody, he scared everybody. He shook the box. Nobody else could do that. Nobody else could do that. So at the same time that all that goodness is happening, maybe peace breaking down everywhere. You know, on Friday that China scared us with this threat of restricting the rare earth materials, which would destroy the entire economy of the world if they did that. I was not so sure that was real, but I don't think I committed to it one way or the other. But according to Trump, it's probably just a negotiating position and not really that different from what it was. He goes, don't worry. In a truth, he said yesterday, I guess, don't worry about China. It will be fine. Highly respected President Xi just had a bad moment. He doesn't want depression for his country and neither do I. The US Wants to help China, not hurt it. Do you see how much technique is built into that? Just that little, that little message on true social, don't worry about China. It'll all be fine. So that part's probably true, because China doesn't want to destroy the economy of the world. They don't really get an advantage if they do that, so probably won't do that. But when he says that respected President Xi just had a bad moment, that is really gets to his face. That's kind of putting him. It's kind of putting him down a little bit and showing that he lost face by creating this little brouhaha. Now, what that does is if she doesn't decide to nuke us for insulting him, in theory, he just got negged. Do you know what negging is? N E G? It means that he got sort of a complimentary insult. It's a complimentary insult. It's why you do if you want a woman to like you if you're one of those dating guys. So President Xi, if it's not so bad that he'll never talk to Trump again, it probably isn't just the fact that he had a bad moment. He's going to have to recover from his bad moment. So that's, that's the position that Trump has put him in. He's like, I'm not criticizing you. I'm just saying you had a bad moment. Do you think she wants to be known as the guy who had a bad moment and almost destroyed the economy of the United States with a statement that probably should have been vetted a little bit better? Oh, I think Trump's completely right. He had a bad moment. He totally had a bad moment. So now he's got something to make up for. And that's the genius of Trump. This is just perfect. Persuasion put Xi in a little box with just a little bit of discomfort, and wouldn't he like to get out of that box by not being a person who's trying to hurt the economy of the world? So setting them up for negotiations. Scott Besson says in all caps. No, he didn't say it in all caps. The idea is to give China time to meet and talk. So mostly it's about showing some respect for China and giving them the time to, to work things out and then probably things will be fine. Stock market seems to be happy about it. I saw a long post by Sahil Patel who wanted to look into the semiconductor supply chain because, as you know, if the semiconductor supply chain breaks, then all of our technology breaks and then the whole world falls into a coma. But it turns out that our semiconductor supply chain, not ours, but the world's, is really, really brittle. And I didn't have any idea how brittle it was, but that's what saheel did. So TSMC, the Taiwan company that produces 90% of the world's most advanced chips. So problem number one, there's only one company that makes 90% of the chips and they happen to be on an island that is likely to turn into a war zone. So that's the first thing to worry about. Secondly, TSMC relies on a Dutch company for lithography machines, meaning that there's probably no other place you can get them. Meaning that if something happened to that one company, maybe TSMC couldn't make any new chips. Just as that one company has a problem, they depend on a company called Carl Zeiss that does optical stuff. It's the only firm in the world capable of making the mirrors that are precise enough for the high end chips. Only one company, if that company had a problem, no more chips. There's a light source. They need an EUV machine that's produced by one company. In San Diego. If something happens to that one company in San Diego, no chips for you. And it goes on and on like this about the other parts that are only available in one place ever. Now, in theory, somebody else could make them, but I know that the mirror stuff is so amazingly, amazingly hard that probably, I mean, there's a good chance that nobody else will ever be able to do it, possibly, anyway. So it goes on like that. There's a whole bunch of pieces that you can only get from one place. So if that one place went down, no chips, if any one of them go down. So that's pretty scary. Meanwhile, over in Ukraine, where the Ukrainian drones are attacking Russian energy sources. They attacked a bunch of energy sources on Crimea and did quite an attack with the drones. But the update on Trump is he had been talking about sending our Tomahawk missiles to Ukraine because they're. They go long distance, they would go deep into Russia, and they would be very accurate and hard to stop. I thought he had already agreed to give them to Ukraine with some restrictions on how they use them. But it sounds like he is not. He still, still needs to talk to Zelensky. And what he said was Trump said that he may send Tomahawk missiles to Ukraine if Russia doesn't settle its war. So it looks like he might be using the threat of Tomahawks to get Putin to say, I don't want any Tomahawks hitting myself. Now, of course, Russia said that if we did give them Tomahawks and they got used, that they would retaliate in some unspecified way that we wouldn't like. So, I don't know, would they? Or. Or there's something psychological about the Ukraine war, where both Russia and Ukraine decide not to attack the neighboring countries that are helping. Yeah, so. So we're, you know, they're not attacking the United States for providing weapons or not attacking Europe for providing the funding. They're just treating it like it's a war between two countries when clearly there are a lot of countries involved. So if Putin continues to do that, to treat it like it's just them against Ukraine, then the Tomahawks wouldn't be that big a deal, except that, you know, they wouldn't like it. But if Putin decides to change the frame and reframe it and say, okay, this is a war against the United States, you just. You're just laundering it through Ukraine, well, then all bets are off. But I would think that Putin would not want to do anything that looked like a direct attack on the United States, because there's this guy, you may have heard of him, Donald Trump, who's the president, and what. What his response would be compared to any other president, what his response would be to any attack on the homeland or our military assets. Putin can't predict that. That's unpredictable, and you don't want to get into militarily unpredictable waters. So that's another thing that Trump brings, that unpredictability that does keep people away anyway, so we'll see what happens with those Tomahawks. Seems like a good play. So J.D. vance was on ABC talking to George Slopinopoulos, and Sloppinopoulos was trying to get him to talk about the. The story that may be completely fake about Homeland Security guy Tom Homan, allegedly before he was in this job accepting a $50,000 bag of cash on video, allegedly for helping some company get a border contract. Now, I don't think that was illegal because he wasn't working for the government then, and he was consulting. So I don't even know if there's a crime involved. But. So J.D. vance was asked about that, to comment on the bag of cash and Tom Holman, because ABC News needed to find something to talk about. There was not the tremendous success that Trump is experiencing at the moment in the Middle East. So they had to find something. They gotta find something to talk to JD about that'll sound bad for those guys. And JD Had a very interesting response to the accusations about that bag of cash. He said, it's a fake scandal and he didn't know anything about that video. And I said to myself, what do you mean you don't know about the video? Everybody knows about the video. It's been a, you know, top headline. We all know about the video. And then I thought to myself, wait a minute, I haven't seen a video. Have any of you seen a video of his, him or anybody else accepting a bag of cash? And then I thought, wait a minute, is this whole thing just made up if. If you haven't seen the video? I don't know that there's a video. Do you. Do you believe there's really a video of him accepting cash? It's been a while. You think that. You think that bad boy would have leaked, right? Or at the very least, somebody would say, I have the video in my hand. I just can't show it to you. So we don't know who has said video, and we haven't, and nobody that we know has seen it. I feel like JD had the right Answer which is you treat it like it's not real because they can't prove it's real. I don't know if it's real. You know, my guess is if it was real, if it were real and it was real bad, that probably more would have happened. So my guess is that's not that real. Just my guess. So Reuters has an article today that, that looked like came from the past. The title was Climate Tipping Points are Being Crossed. Scientists warn ahead of cop 30. So I guess there's some big climate change meetup coming up and Reuters wants us to know that we're past the tipping points where climate change is going to kill us all. Or we're already past the tipping points. Now, isn't there something wrong with this? Why would that just be a little bit of an article around other articles that just is keyed off of a meeting coming up? Wouldn't that be the biggest problem and biggest story in the world, that we cross all the tipping points and now we're definitely dead? They couldn't possibly believe what they're saying. They could not possibly believe what they're writing. That's where we've gotten to. Right, where they couldn't possibly believe it because you wouldn't act a matter of fact about it. It's just like a little article on, on Reuters. Yeah, we're past all the tipping points. It looks like there's nothing we could do. It's the end of the world. But they got a big meeting coming up. Like what if I believed that the world was past the tipping point, I'd be recommending that you have sex with a stranger. No, I wouldn't. Maybe I would, but you would act completely different. There's no way you would act. Matter of fact, if you really believe we had crossed the tipping points and the climate's going to just disappear. Now they had some claims about, oh, we're past the tipping point for coral and it said, you know, all the coral is disappearing and therefore the, you know, the oceans will not be sustainable, et cetera. And I thought, what news are you looking at, Reuters? All the news I've seen in the past six months told me that the coral has recovered when people didn't expect it. Did I imagine that was that fake news or does Reuters not know that the current news is that the coral seems to have come back or it's coming back powerfully and probably there's no tempo, no crossover point at all. Yeah, anyway, so that just seems so out of date. Meanwhile, several. This is also Reuters, Several pharmaceutical companies, I think there were like maybe 10 of them or so, quite a few of them are now saying that they'll sell their drugs directly to patients in the U.S. now that would be in response to Trump trying to get them to lower their prices. But, but what's interesting here is, have I ever introduced my idea of the confusopoly? The confusopoly is when you're in a business that's just like somebody else's business and it's sort of a commodity like a cell phone or, or some kinds of insurance. You know, they're exactly the same. So you have to pretend the yours is different by making it confusing. Well, what does the cell phone service cost? Well, it depends. Do you have your relatives on it and did you use the extra minutes and did you roll over the minutes? And then you can't really compare it to anything because you don't know how exactly what minutes you would use and what you would roll over. If you rolled it over, would anybody use it? So if they make it confusing, then each of the cell companies will sort of get their share. If they made it not confusing, then everybody would know which one was the good one and all the others would be out of business instantly. So confusopolis are the only thing that keeps complicated commodity like businesses in business. It prevents you from knowing which one is the better one. And that is clearly something like that's happening with these pharmaceutical companies who have agreed to sell drugs direct to patients because they're all going to do it a different way and they're going to do it with different platforms. So some of them have their own website, some of them are going to work through somebody else. Some of them are going to cut some drugs but not others. They'll probably come up with complicated formulas like, well, under these conditions we'll cut them for these people, but under these conditions we won't. So I feel like the pharma companies are going to have to make it really complicated so that they can say they're doing things without doing things. Because I'll tell you what they can't do. They can't lower their prices and give us the same price that they give to third world countries, which is the ask. That's what we're asking for. They can't do that. That would be their entire profitability. So they have to pretend they're playing along because Trump is too powerful right now. So they have, they have to act like they're playing along. Well, I don't think they are playing along. I think they're going to, you know, throw a bone. You know, maybe, maybe some drugs that are almost generic but are not their big profitable drugs. You know, if they, if they throw a few sacrificial drugs for lower cost, they can keep their, their profitable ones at their current price, probably try to get away with that. So I'm not ready to speak optimistically about where that's happening. I think that the big pharma's got a, they got a lot of game. They know how to protect themselves. Well, Trump has suggested publicly that who he calls corrupt Senator Adam Schiff could be the next person who gets law fared says he's so dishonest. And of course that causes people to say, wait a minute, you're the President of the United States. You can't be identifying enemies and then telling the Department of Justice to go lawfare them. You can't do that. To which I have mixed feelings. If these had been innocent people or just people who were doing their own thing that didn't affect Trump and didn't affect me and didn't affect the government, I might say, yeah, don't lawfare them. That's just going to create more problems. Even though they law fared, you don't lawfare them. But because these specific people were literally trying to overthrow my government and they were trying to destroy the guy that you and I and the other supporters were trying to support to the point where he could get to do things like this, you know, ending wars. That's what we wanted him to do. That's why we hired him, that's why we voted for him and we wanted that to get done. But there was a group of professional liars and insurrectionists, I would call them, who worked very hard to stop that. Now, if you law fare those guys, I'm totally okay with that because you absolutely need mutually assured destruction so that the next time the Democrats decide to lawfare the next president, which they will, they'll at least think twice and they're going to say, all right, the last time we law fared a president, we didn't see it coming, but he became the president again and then he got all of us back and all the people who law firm were in jail or, or paid a lot of money, you can't let it go. The, the things that they did to Trump and by extension to his supporters, you can't let that go. So if you have to law ferret to get them back, law ferret, whatever you have to do, you cannot Let that stand. And to imagine that Law firing this group of people, Law firing the lawfarers who were the. The insurrectionist Lawfarers, you can't compare that to anything else. If you were just taking down a critic. I'll tell you where I draw the line. If he said. If he said, stephen King says bad things about me all the time, I'd like you to law firm, go find a crime. I'm sure you can find a crime. Now that would be completely unacceptable to me, and I would fight against that. About Rob Reiner, huge critic of the President, huge pain in the ass. If the President said, hey, Lawfare, that guy because he says bad things about me. No, no, nope, we don't do that. You can say bad things about people. We allow that. That's free speech. But if he's going after the people who literally lied about what was in a skiff, ran gigantic hoaxes to try to literally change the government, and. And tried to jail him, if not, shoot him. Free pass, Mr. President, you have a free pass. Not just to say whatever you want to say.
