Clay Travis
Welcome in. We are rolling with the Tuesday edition of the program. We hope all of you had fantastic Labor Day weekends. I did. I think Buck did as well. I met a lot of you at the Alabama Florida State game. Man, we've been doing this show for so long, Buck. I remember when Alabama was actually good at football.
- [01:30]
Buck Sexton
I actually do too. Which tells you something.
- [01:33]
Clay Travis
Florida State Seminoles get the big win there. It was a lot of fun meeting many of you. So I'm back on the road for college football season a lot again. But we began now that we are officially into fall, even though it doesn't feel like fall in most of the country kids officially back in schools, most places, everywhere. And the question becomes, what will the first fall of Trump 2.0 look like? And, well, the answer is the resistance is going to be the same as it was in the spring, in the summer, in the Winter of Trump 2.0. And that is federal district court judges are going to wrongly decide the law and just try to throw up roadblocks. And we'll get into this a little bit. But it kind of surprises me how seriously the media still treats all of these federal court decisions. They, they, they come out and they say, oh my goodness, Trump doesn't have the authority to insert whatever issue is currently being litigated. And then it goes to the circuit court. And the circuit court generally says, yes, he does. And so far the Supreme Court always says he does. So you have a lot of left wing politicians that are wearing judicial robes and they have decided that they're going to do everything they can to try to slow down the momentum of Trump 2.0. And I just don't really get that worked up about it at this point in time. We told you that this is what's going to occur. You should expect for the next three plus years. This is primarily what they're going to do. And this is why no matter how good of a term Trump has, the things that need to be fixed in this country are multi term, multi president in nature, no matter how good Trump 2.0 is. But I do think we should address it as we usually do.
- [03:36]
Buck Sexton
Some some important notes here. One is the judge who came forward and found that Trump it was unlawful for the president to deploy the National Guard in Los Angeles. Yeah, we'll see about that. It also has already happened. So there's really no sanctions or anything other than this is a slap down or meant to be a slap down of Trump. I think what got even more attention over the weekend, Clay, is and this is from one of the administration spokespersons, Trisha McLaughlin, that there was an effort to, to take 76 unaccompanied Guatemalan children. Now understand these are kids who were brought into the country or in some cases found at the border of this country. And this was happening for a while, part of the human trafficking that was going on here where they were, the term they would use is recycling kids. And this is what they were saying at the border Border patrol they, that kids were being used as pawns by people to get into the country. Because if you had a child with you and claim the child was a family member or a dependent, you could not be deported, Clay. So it was this end run onto US soil essentially. And so there were all these kids and this was, this was part of the scam, the illegal immigrant scam that was being run. It's not the kids fault, obviously. These are children, 76 of them the administration was trying to reunite. And this is from Stephen Miller and other White House officials with their parents in Guatemala. And a judge, Judge Sparkle Suknanp is has blocked that flight from the reunification of Guatemalan children with their families in their actual country of nationality. Because Clay, anything Trump does, Trump taking kids who don't have their parents and reuniting them with their parents is bad because Democrats hate Trump. They don't ever go beyond the actual realities or rather they don't get into the actual realities of what he's done. So that's, that's going on. And just one other thing I throw in the mix because we're going to talk also about the law enforcement piece. I don't want to take away from the judge discussion, but 50 people shot over the weekend in Chicago. Yeah, five, zero people shot. Eight fatally. Hmm. Maybe time to have that discussion, too. But on the judges clay, this is just the only real resistance there is to Trump.
- [06:01]
Clay Travis
We said this and we're being proven right about it more and more. It is a real question, where was resistance gonna come from? We, we saw the protest resistance at the inauguration, and we came on and we told you. We just kind of felt sorry for them. There's just no energy there. There still is no energy there. They can't even pay people to show up and protest in big numbers. So the street protest as the resistance to Trump 2.0 is nonexistent politically. I want to play this cut because Jasmine Crockett, from, I believe the Houston area of Texas, maybe the Dallas area of Texas, is supposed to be one of the top Trump critics. And I think you see in her, when I play this cut, there is no real resistance from the Democrat Party because they are so bereft of ideas, and the ideas they do have are just flat out wrong and rejected by huge majorities of the country. But I want you to listen to this, and before I play it, I want you to understand Jasmine Crockett's parents did everything they could to get her the best possible education, as well every parent should. They sent her to a private school in Missouri that cost over $30,000 a year. They sent her to Rhodes College in the Memphis area, which is a great liberal arts school team. Look up what the cost of Rhodes College is now. I believe it costs over $60,000 a year with room and board included there. So over $30,000 a year for her high school, over $60,000 a year for her college. Yet this is how she has. She is well educated. She has gone to elite schools.
- [07:53]
Buck Sexton
Well, she's, she's expensively educated. There's a difference.
- [07:57]
Clay Travis
But she understands and knows basic grammar. And I want you to listen to this. And she is pretending to be dumb and sounding like she's never gone to any school of any measure because she thinks that's what she needs to do to connect with her constituents. It's an insult to her parents. It's also an insult to all those constituents who don't actually want to be talked to like this. Listen.
- [08:27]
Jasmine Crockett
Well, they are crazy because they always talk about how Christian they is. Yeah. I don't know how many of them on that side are getting divorced because they getting caught up sleeping with their co workers, staffers, interns, all the things. Yeah, you ain't got to believe me. Just go Google. You'll find some of it, I'm telling you. And the wives is being messy and petty. They putting it in the divorce. I'm like, oh, that's got to be true, because your lawyer would know that.
- [08:50]
Commercial Announcer
They gonna lose it.
- [08:52]
Buck Sexton
All right.
- [08:53]
Clay Travis
I mean, this is embarrassing. I. There's no way to say, hey, this is someone who represents 700,000 people in the United States. This is one of 435 members of Congress to be talking like this in public intentionally not able to speak basic grammar. It's embarrassing.
- [09:14]
Buck Sexton
Does it work for her politically, though?
- [09:16]
Clay Travis
No, that's. No.
- [09:17]
Buck Sexton
You don't think so?
- [09:18]
Clay Travis
No, it doesn't. Because I think she's. She is. Well, it depends on what her goal is. If she wants to.
- [09:24]
Buck Sexton
Well, that's. That's what I'm getting at here. Right. What is she trying to accomplish with this? How is she trying to position herself this vis a vis her voters and her national profile?
- [09:34]
Clay Travis
Well, she can't ever do anything other than represent one congressional district like this. You can't get elected to statewide office in Texas talking like this. You can't get elected president of the United States talking about it, but she.
- [09:48]
Buck Sexton
You can get the national media talking about you. Well, can get a lot of attention. You can be. You know, look at the. I think the AOC model, Clay. Insofar as now politicians are, and particularly like the younger generation of left wing politicians, view themselves as social media stars, first and foremost is something to keep in mind. See, you're thinking about this, like, as a statesman. Shouldn't she. And with respect to her voters, I think she's playing to the. She's playing to the Internet constituency.
- [10:15]
Clay Travis
She's playing. But even if she's playing to the Internet constituency, Buck, I don't think there's a huge demand for dumb. I don't. I don't think that black, white, Asian, Hispanic, real large audiences are out there saying, I want someone who is pretending to be dumber than she is. Because I think a lot of people see through this. By the way, Rhodes College, over $70,000 a year in room and board. This is where she went. She knows how to use is and are correctly in sentences like, you know, I'm not saying she's a Rhodes scholar or the most brilliant person on the planet. But when you go to elite education institutions, they will beat grammar into your head. She knows how to speak.
- [11:04]
Buck Sexton
I got a view. I think. I think you're overestimating elite institutions and their ability to get anybody to speak properly or think properly or even do their own. These days, they can't even get the kids to write their own essays because of AI the whole thing is falling apart. But even going back decades, I'm not sure that proper grammar is necessarily something that people would get, even at elite. Again, I always put elite in quotes. And you and I both have gone to elite educational institutions, and there were dumb asses at my school. I don't know what to tell you. There are guys who could barely put two words together.
- [11:34]
Clay Travis
So no black person who goes to GW is able to. Where I went, is able to go to the school and not be able to correctly use is or are in a sentence like or.
- [11:48]
Buck Sexton
I see. I think you're. I think that you're. She is. You're saying that she's. She's.
- [11:53]
Clay Travis
This is, in my opinion, 100%.
- [11:55]
Buck Sexton
I think she's. I think she's trying to. She's trying to code switch and trying to appeal to different constituencies in different ways as part of her growing. Clay, there is a massive vacuum on the Democrat side right now, so big that not even Pritzker can fill it. And there are people out there. There are people out there who recognize that now is a time. Clay, look at aoc. Look at. You keep thinking that these Democrats have to be held to standards of authenticity or honesty or anything. AOC grew up in fancy Westchester, and yet she's presented herself as, you know, Ocasio Cortez from the Bronx, man, like, I've been on these mean streets, you know? And she even sometimes would speak in a more. A more sort of urban dialect. AOC would. Went to bu, which I think was the most expensive school in the country in clay. They love her. So I. I'm. You know, you're. You're approaching this. I don't think you're seeing this like a leftist is what I'm trying to tell you. I think you got to look through the leftist lens. I think she's building her profile. You can say that, you know, you think it's absurd, of course, and I get that. But I think that she views this as code switching and profile building at a time when Democrats are in a vacuum for not just leadership, but for media attention.
- [13:12]
Clay Travis
I think this. This is. Look, she may end up on the view. And there is an argument out here that I think, building on your social media influencer argument, I think that many people now who are in Congress are auditioning for podcast and media jobs because they make $170,000 a year. So she may have a future in media. But I think even I'm going to.
- [13:40]
Buck Sexton
Put this out there. I think, I think this is true. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt, but I. Clay, there would have been a time when I think that radio was a stepping stone to elected office or podcasting, you know, audio. And now I think that for a lot of people, elected office is a stepping stone into audio, social media profile, all that kind of stuff. I think it has changed dramatically over the last 20 years.
- [14:02]
Clay Travis
I think the challenge is basically when you're a politician, your only job is communication. And I don't buy that communicating as if you are dumber than you actually are. And here I'm giving credit to Jasmine Crockett. I think that clearly she is pretending that she is dumber than she is to try to speak to an audience.
- [14:20]
Buck Sexton
I don't think she goes profoundly being dumber. She's not, she's, she's, she's sort of. She's, you know, she's maybe switching into a different vernacular, a different dialect, but she's not pretending to be dumb. She's. She's pretending that this is the way that she normally necessarily speaks and communicates. Right? Like when Hillary Clinton Clay would go down and be like, oh, eyes I so tired, you know, walking. You remember when Hillary did her whole Southern thing? She's not pretending to be dumb. She's pretending to meet Southern. Now, all the Southerners listening, including you, I think are like that chance lady, but she's trying to ingratiate herself with that approach to them.
- [15:00]
Clay Travis
See, I guess what, I guess what I'm going to is I think ultimately what connects with people is authenticity. And I think most people. Now there is a small segment, she could probably get elected congresswoman from that district over and over again in, and not matter in the larger 435 person house. But I think in a social media sphere, the only thing that matters is authenticity. And authenticity requires that you be the person you are. And when she is code switching, that resonates like we should play a cut of her talking in two different vernaculars. That doesn't work because you can put them side by side and it exposes that you are dishonest. I've said this for a long time. My conversations that I have in public and the conversations that I have in private. There's zero difference between them. And that is why I think that works in media. Authenticity is all that matters. I think she is basically not going to exist for much longer.

Buck Sexton
All right, welcome back in here to Clay Anne Buck. As we were discussing a judge. Hashtag resistance. Judiciary strikes again. So a judge. Big news today. That's not big News. It's news. I wouldn't say it's big news because the judges keep doing this over and over and a lot of times they get overturned. But here is the media reporting on this. Just want to let you know, they're so excited. Someone standing up to Trump. Standing up to Trump. Preventing riots, disorder, chaos and criminality. That's, that's something they celebrate in the Lib media. Play1: Breaking this morning, a federal judge ruled the use of the National Guard during Southern California's immigration enforcement protests is illegal, a blow to the Trump administration's crime crackdown. A U.S. district Court ruling the Trump administration's deployment of the National Guard to LA was unlawful. A judge just blocked the administration from.
- [18:53]
Clay Travis
Deploying the National Guard in California to.
- [18:55]
Buck Sexton
Fight crime, calling it illegal.
- [18:57]
Commercial Announcer
Breaking news, a major court loss for the Trump administration. A federal judge says President Trump's use.
- [19:03]
Buck Sexton
Of the National Guard in Los Angeles was illegal. We just have a breaking headline here.
- [19:07]
Clay Travis
Trump's L. A Troop deployment violated federal law.
- [19:11]
Commercial Announcer
Judge Charles Breyer in the federal court in California says using the military as a show of force in an American city like Los Angeles this summer, that's illegal.
- [19:23]
Buck Sexton
I actually think he's, they're going to be wrong on this because National Guard for state of emergency is common. This is not some crazy idea.
- [19:30]
Clay Travis
This is the same judge who already got slapped down in California, is my recollection, who tried to say before that this was not permitted. And to your point, Buck, this is Constitution Law 101. The Supremacy Clause gives the president the ability to call out the National Guard. It is his clear constitutional authority. This is not even complicated. And this reminds me a little bit of when Colorado said, oh, Trump can't be on the ballot. And everybody was like, look how important this is. And then it got slapped down. We'll talk about it more. Look, we want to give respect to all the brave men and women out there defending our country and our freedoms. One of many reasons we love our sponsor, PureTalk. In addition to offering quality cell phone service at a great value, 25 bucks a month for unlimited talk, texts, plenty of data, they also stand proudly with our military. In fact, PureTalk, founded by a veteran, hires veterans keeping jobs at home, doesn't stop there. PureTalk has raised nearly half a million dollars to prevent veteran suicide. They've forgiven millions of dollars in veteran debt, and they've given away more than 1,000 flags to veterans this year. If you haven't switched your cell phone service to PureTalk, now's a great time to do so. Just dial £250, say the keywords Clay and Buck. You'll get an additional 50% off your first month. That's £250. Say clay and Buck. Clay Travis and Buck Sexton on the front lines of truth. All right, I am still fired up about this, but I do think this is. This is important. I don't agree with Kami Mamdani, who is unfortunately going to probably be elected the next mayor of New York City because everybody running against him refuses to drop out of the race. And now we're into September and he continues to create more space between himself and everybody else. But I'm gonna actually give credit to Mom Donnie here. He is an eloquent voice for communism and socialism. Now the New York Times says he's not actually a socialist, even though he said that he's a socialist. But if you listen to Mom Donnie, I understand how people who are persuadable, right? You're 25. You don't really understand how the world works. Your rent is high. You look around and you say, yeah, the rich people are making my life hard and difficult and we should take their money and we should redistribute it. And why is grocery store. Why are grocery store prices so expensive? We should go and make our own government grocery stores and then we'll get everything cheap. Like these are things that morons would say, uneducated people who do not understand basic economics, but it's coming from a place of anger and a place of discomfort. And he is trying to sell in an eloquent, affable way with a good smile and a youthful visage, a political system that is actually destructive to most of the people supporting it. So. But I understand him and I don't say that he is a moron. I think that he has just got a political philosophy that is actually destructive for the things that he claims to care about. Ok, listen to this. I want to play Jasmine Crockettbuck when she was running for Congress in Texas. Listen to the way she presented herself to the audience when she was initially running. Cut 24 hours.
- [23:10]
Jasmine Crockett
Good to see you in the new year. You know, no one could have told me that when I went down to Austin. Now looks like a little bit over a year ago that I would be running for Congress. It's just not what my plan was. But what I've always decided is that I would step up when there was a need.
- [23:29]
Clay Travis
Okay, that's Jasmine Crockett just a couple of years ago when she is running for Congress. This was Jasmine Crockett this weekend maybe.
- [23:36]
Jasmine Crockett
Because these people, they are crazy because they always talk about how Christian they is. Yeah, I don't know how many of them on that side are getting divorced because they getting caught up sleeping with their co workers, staffers, interns, all the things. Yeah, you ain't got to believe me. Just go Google, you'll find some of it, I'm telling you, in the wives.
- [23:54]
Clay Travis
So we can cut her off. You can tell. I mean, she sounds like a absolute moron and this is embarrassing. So Buck, to your point, you think this is actually beneficial branding wise for her that she has decided that Jasmine Crockett 1.0, which was a somewhat eloquent person who is making the case for why they should be a congresswoman, is actually better served. Jasmine Crockett 2.0 My suggestion is that she doesn't have the ability to actually grow her base because the inauthenticity of those two clips we just played side by side shows to a lot of inner city black people, hey, this is fake. And also shows to a lot of other people of other races, white, black, Asian and Hispanic. Boy, this is someone who is not presenting an authentic front to us. Now your point, which is actually, I think scary, is that inauthenticity in a social media age pay so well and gets so much attention that she may benefit from pretending because I think she is to be dumber than she is.
- [25:06]
Buck Sexton
I don't, I don't think her, I don't think her constituents and I don't think any, I don't think the Democrats view this as inauthentic. I think they view it as, you know, people will use the term code switching sometimes for someone who's speaking one way to one constituency and one way to another. But this is something that the, you know, people on the right will say, look at, look at this. And this is not, you know, indicative of the way that she really speaks. But do you hear the crowd? You could hear the crowd in the background when she was, I don't know how to describe it, but you know, speaking in a more vernacular way.
- [25:38]
Clay Travis
They were, they loved it when she went Philly Bonics. That crowd may like it. Here's what I know to be true. No black parent wants to pay. No Hispanic parent, no white parent, no, no parent of any race wants to pay $30,000 a year for their kid to go to private school and over $60,000 a year for their kid to go to college and then have them talking like that. And so I think that Ultimately, this. She actually has a story that can be told that is aspirational in nature, which is, hey, look at what going to elite academic institutions can do. You can grow up, you can become a congressperson. I think to your point, she has lost her way. And there is a segment of the population that says, well, you say, oh, this is popular on social media. I think she's actually destroying her. Any future that she had in politics with this.
- [26:38]
Buck Sexton
I think she's gotten a lot more famous over the last year and thinks that this is working for her.
- [26:42]
Clay Travis
So I hope she runs for.
- [26:46]
Buck Sexton
The fact that on the. Remember, you look at someone like AOC, she's Clay, she's a member of Congress. There's over 400 of them. Right. So why is she so outsized in the national conversation? It's because she's created a Persona and she's created a vibe. You know, she's created a whole thing. And I think that Jasmine Crockett, she doesn't want to be just another member of Congress. She wants a radio show with 560 some odd stations talking about her. And she's gotten her wish up. He just.
- [27:17]
Clay Travis
I just.
- [27:17]
Buck Sexton
Clay. I just blew Clay's mind so much that his headphones got blown off.
- [27:20]
Clay Travis
I was laughing to such a degree that my headphones fell off. I do think that. Well, I'm actually curious. We've got a lot of black listeners. How do you think this plays with black voters that are out there listening to us right now? How do you think?
- [27:37]
Buck Sexton
I think you got to break this down, Clay.
- [27:40]
Clay Travis
Black.
- [27:40]
Buck Sexton
I mean, we're going to have a fair number of. We're going to have black conservative and black independent voters listening and maybe a handful of black Democrat voters listening to us. But it's going to be mostly black conservatives and some black independent voters, swing voters. Right. The question isn't how do they view this. The question would be how do you think people that vote Democrat consistently every election who are black?
- [28:05]
Clay Travis
I don't think this plays. I don't. I mean, who is a black elected official that has ever had anything other than a congressional seat that has sounded like this on the public stage?
- [28:19]
Buck Sexton
I mean, Clay, you say you don't think this plays. Are you familiar with the. I believe she's my congresswoman, Frederica Wilson.
- [28:26]
Clay Travis
I have no idea who she is.
- [28:29]
Buck Sexton
She. She's best known. She kind of wears a. She wears like a cowboy hat all the time. Do you know. Do you know.
- [28:36]
Clay Travis
I don't know who this. I don't know who this person is. I look, I don't. I think it can play in an individual congressional district.
- [28:44]
Buck Sexton
She does. I Google imaged her real quick. Every image of her has a cowboy hat on, just so you know.
- [28:50]
Clay Travis
What? Your congressperson wears a cowboy hat all.
- [28:52]
Buck Sexton
The time in South Florida? Yes.
- [28:55]
Clay Travis
Is she. I don't know if.
- [28:56]
Buck Sexton
Frederick. I bring this up because she is a person, Frederica Wilson. She is a Persona. She is a brand. She is a. A. A media entity. And she's been elected.
- [29:10]
Clay Travis
Yeah.
- [29:11]
Buck Sexton
I think she's. Technically, it's between her and there's another.
- [29:14]
Clay Travis
Is she a Democrat or Salazar?
- [29:17]
Buck Sexton
Are the two for my area. And I think I've actually been like, redistricted recently or relatively recently, so it's up to. But I'm pretty sure she's my congresswoman. You've never heard of her. She wears a cowboy hat all the time. And she. Now, I don't know where she's from originally, so maybe. But I'm just saying she was. She is the. If you say Frederica will rather. If you say. Who's the congresswoman from Florida with the cowboy hat on. Everybody knows in Florida you're talking about, you know, who she is, Clay.
- [29:40]
Clay Travis
I mean, I see this picture. I reckon. I don't know if she's a Democrat or a Republican. I have no idea.
- [29:45]
Buck Sexton
Oh, she is definitely a Democrat, my friend. She has said some of the craziest. I think she was.
- [29:51]
Clay Travis
How is she. How is. How are you in her district? Like, you got. I mean, aren't they redistricting Florida? How is. Like, you're in a really. I would say. How would you describe your neighborhood? Like, in Miami beach, like a nice neighborhood? I wouldn't think that this would be your congresswoman walking around in a cowboy hat all the time.

Buck Sexton
Oh, no, I'm definitely. I'm. It's funny, I am right at, like, the dividing line of her. Because North Miami, which is what she represents, Clay, has a very, very large minority population.
- [30:24]
Clay Travis
Yeah.
- [30:25]
Buck Sexton
So. And it kind of swoops down into Miami Beach. The district swoops down into Miami Beach. So I, I am. I'm looking at a map right now. I mean, I heard people like, fuck, you should know this. Well, they've changed it. I'm. I'm like on the border. I think I'm like on the borderline for this district. So she may. She either is my congresswoman or is very close to it. But the point here is more she has. She gets elected all the time, very comfortably.
- [30:49]
Clay Travis
Okay. But she's. She has no career beyond the district. Right. And I thought. I guess what I'm saying is Jasmine Crockett seemed to me to want to be the face of the larger Democrat Party. When you put those two videos side by side, I don't think she thinks.
- [31:04]
Buck Sexton
She'S running for president or anything like that.
- [31:06]
Clay Travis
I mean, but she thinks that her. I think that she believes her Persona is such that she should be one of the leaders of the Democrat Party. And I think the fact that they have people speaking like that, I mean, I would love to run against Jasmine Crockett. I think I would beat Jasmine Crockett in a race, 9010 in the United States. Like, and I would just. I would just run that ad of her talking about running for Congress beside that ad. And I think the vast majority of people out there would say this is actually. And it's. I think a lot of black people see this as an insult because you aspire to go get an education and you want to send your kid to the best schools, and then they. She comes back and she tries to pretend like she is not educated. I think this is actually seen as an insult inside of the black community by anybody who's educated.
- [31:56]
Buck Sexton
Do you know how Trump has described my congresswoman?
- [31:59]
Clay Travis
Wacky. That's actually somewhat kind. I would say that hat is really funny. Like, I would not have expected. Well, I guess she brought the cowboy hat. Remember, the New York Times wrote about Beyonce and. And they wrote. And this is a real line. They said, Beyonce brought the cowboy hat into popular discussion. And I was like, you know, I think the cowboy hat maybe was popular before Beyonce wore it. And this chick, to her credit, she was wearing a cowboy hat long before Beyonce decided to do a country album.
- [32:34]
Buck Sexton
She is. Some of her best known quotes include, the White House is full of white supremacists, and it is sickening. Yeah.
- [32:42]
Clay Travis
This is your girl. This is your congressperson.
- [32:45]
Buck Sexton
I. Yes. Yes.
- [32:46]
Clay Travis
I would not in this district, if you had told me you had, like, some, you know, Cuban representative from the.
- [32:52]
Buck Sexton
Miami Salazar, who she. She represents the other. It's like Miami is cut into two halves. There's the north and the south, and Salazar is a southern. And I just. And. Which is all downtown Miami. And. Yeah. And so I just met. So, yeah, I have Frederic you with.
- [33:08]
Clay Travis
The black woman in the cowboy hat as your congress person. I would. I. I would have bet a lot if you asked me.
- [33:15]
Buck Sexton
But my. My point here, though, Clay is, again, she has create. And this is what, you know, whether it's. Whether it's AOC or Jasmine crack. And look, there are some guys on the right who I think have created, you know, some Republican members of Congress. You think about somebody like Senator Kennedy. What do people think of when they think of Senator Kennedy that he's going to talk about, you know, some. Some. He's going to use some Southern twin.
- [33:36]
Clay Travis
Yeah, but that's like. But that's.
- [33:37]
Buck Sexton
But.
- [33:38]
Clay Travis
But there's a lot of. I'm trying to think wisdom in the old Southern aphorisms that John Kennedy would use. And I don't think people think he's dumb. I mean, he's like a country lawyer who is talking to a jury. And I don't think he's talking.
- [33:56]
Buck Sexton
You keep using this phrase dumb. I don't. I think that this is very calculated. That's where. That's where we're. And I don't think that it's viewed as. As. I think it's viewed as speaking to constituencies in different ways. You could say it's pandering. You could say that you did. But I. Clay, AOC pretended to be from the roughest part of New York City. Okay. Dude, she pretended to be. The South Bronx is the most dangerous, violent part of New York, year in and year out. Sometimes in eastern part of Brooklyn, but generally the South Bronx. She's from Westchester. I know the worst thing that was happening in her town was like, you know, occasionally a couple of, like, rogue cats would be on the loose in the street, and the fire department have to get them out of a tree or something. So it's just. It works for her.
- [34:44]
Clay Travis
Yeah. But I do think AOC doesn't sound this ridiculous.
- [34:49]
Buck Sexton
Ah, do we have.
- [34:50]
Clay Travis
That's a good challenge play. Do we have a clip of AOC sounding as ridiculous as Jasmine Crockett does? In the clip that we just.
- [34:58]
Buck Sexton
She's. She's done a little of the, like, yeah. Like, you know, we, We. We out here on these mean streets. AOC does it, too.
- [35:05]
Clay Travis
She does, but it's not as bad as that. It's.
- [35:08]
Buck Sexton
I.
- [35:08]
Clay Travis
Maybe I. I would love. If somebody can find a AOC sounding as ridiculous as Jasmine Crockett, we will play it for you. I think she's been a little bit closer. She comes across more like a.
- [35:20]
Buck Sexton
Cutting this, cutting this, slicing this thin here.
- [35:23]
Clay Travis
The difference in aoc, I just think. I just think there's no audience for this ultimately, and I think it's why the Democrat Party is tanking, I think. Audience? Why would she do that? There's no audience because she has really.
- [35:34]
Buck Sexton
Poor political.
- [35:37]
Clay Travis
Instincts when it comes to growing beyond the base of her congressional.
- [35:41]
Buck Sexton
And yet somehow we've talked about her for the, like the first 30 minutes of the show today.
- [35:44]
Clay Travis
Well, because I think it's actually, I think it's actually emblematic of why the Democrat Party is failing, that she is seen as one of the faces of the party. And I just don't think there's an audience for this. I really don't.
- [35:55]
Buck Sexton
Well, we're going to come back in and talk about Chicago and crime and Trump and all that coming up here because some very, very interesting voices. Clay. Morning Joe. I'm just going to say this to everybody.
- [36:06]
Clay Travis
Morning Joe call this is maybe your best prediction of, of, of the show history because I, I, I think you're 100 right on this Morning Joe is positioning.
- [36:16]
Buck Sexton
They're trying to win me back. And Joe Scarborough's got big plans for himself. I'm telling you, as crazy as it sounds. And even Clay doesn't think it's that crazy. So we're going to get into this. You're coming back what they've been saying. All right, look, President Trump wants to see this country emerge as the leader globally in artificial intelligence. It's absolutely critical. This administration, the White House today wants to see our nation lead again in the development of AI. It benefits each of us as consumers. It also leads to a stronger military and propels our industries forward at lightning speed. President Trump sees this as a crucial technology tool for Americans. It's as simple as that. And I'm not alone in my thinking either. I think this administration is preparing an estimated trillion dollars plus investment, bring in multiple partners. It's what I refer to as the Manhattan Project to, to take back our lead in the AI arms race and potentially engage a handful of US Firms with billions in new contracts. And this investment boom could come as soon as October 15th. I break it all down in a brand new interview, including the companies that I believe could soar when this comes about.

Buck Sexton
All right, welcome back into Clam, Buck. Got some calls want to get to them. Sean in New York, you're up first, sir. Hey, what's up Sean?
- [38:49]
Sean (Caller)
Hey, what's going on? You're definitely right, Buck. He's playing to a crowd. The one thing that people connected with Trump was the way he spoke. He spoke like a lot of people and how they felt. Now I'm not saying what Jasmine Crockett is doing is going to garner a lot of support, but look at the Democrat party and who their leaders are. Look at the way Al Sharpton speaks. Look at the way these left wing nuts who are black speak on CNN and msnbc. They are definitely trying to garner to a certain crowd of people and it works, unfortunately with the black community.
- [39:25]
Clay Travis
But Sean, sorry to cut you off, but you mentioned Al Sharpton. You can mention Jesse Jackson, Rev. I've never heard them smell speak like Jasmine Crockett did in the clips we we played.
- [39:38]
Sean (Caller)
Because you've never really listened to them, Clay. I'm a black.
- [39:43]
Clay Travis
Maybe that's the truth. So you're saying that there would be.
- [39:46]
Buck Sexton
Sean's saying as a black man, Clay, that he thinks that this is going to work for the constituency she's speaking.
