Overview

In this episode, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton dive into the ongoing issues of crime rates in Washington, D.C., media perceptions, and how former President Donald Trump’s focus on D.C. cleanup is dominating the national conversation. They analyze the Democrats' and media’s responses to surging urban crime and discuss the shifting political landscape. There are also lighter moments with banter about athletic prowess and listener mail, maintaining the show’s characteristic blend of sharp commentary, humor, and cultural observations.

---

Main Discussion Themes

1. Perceptions and Realities of Crime in Washington, D.C. (03:00-10:00)

• Buck Sexton opens by lampooning claims that D.C. is a “safe city”, pointing out personal experiences and data that say otherwise, and comparing D.C. unfavorably to cities like Boston, San Diego, and El Paso.
• Key Point: Both hosts stress, with personal anecdotes, that “No one who actually lives there thinks that it is a safe city.” (03:20, Buck)
• The discussion sets the stage for why Trump’s crime policies are resonating and why the media appears out-of-touch.

2. Media Backlash and Machismo Claims (08:00-13:00)

• Clay recounts being criticized by MSNBC and Media Matters for advocating a federal intervention to reduce D.C. crime, highlighting the oddity and hyperbole in their attacks.
• Buck mocks the accusation that Clay's stance “demonstrates strength and machismo” [09:00], with a playful jab at the hyperbole around the word "machismo."
  • Notable exchange:
    • Buck: “Clay, your testosterone has just overwhelmed the MSNBC table over there...” (09:12)
    • Clay: “I don't even see how testosterone is involved in wanting less murders. Are there people with high levels of estrogen that just want more people murdered?” (09:18)
• Clay emphasizes that wanting fewer murders shouldn't be controversial, and the backlash illustrates partisan absurdity.

3. Liberal Media’s Perspective: Crime vs. “Real” Threats (12:00-15:30)

• The show highlights a clip from MSNBC where a commentator claims to fear losing his vote to authoritarianism and his children’s future to climate change more than being a victim of street crime in D.C.
  • Clay retorts: “There is no one out there walking the streets of D.C. late at night that is thinking as they breathe the air, ‘Oh my goodness, I am terrified of climate change.’” (13:38)
• Hosts argue such statements reveal progressive arguments are increasingly disconnected from real public sentiment, especially among men.

4. Crime Data, Political Response, and Jan 6th Rhetoric (15:30-17:00)

• Buck notes how local officials may be "cooking the books" by downgrading felonies to improve statistics—referencing pop culture (The Wire) and real-world police practice.
• Clay criticizes the continued use of January 6th as the “worst day since the Civil War,” noting the public is no longer as responsive to this narrative.

5. Trump’s Narrative Control and D.C. Cleanup Plan (22:40-24:00, 34:30-35:30)

• Clay observes Trump’s dominance over media cycles by focusing on a D.C. crime crackdown ahead of the nation’s 250th anniversary, suggesting it’s both good policy and effective political strategy.
• Trump’s vision for D.C.: “What we want to do is make Washington D.C. the greatest, most beautiful, safest capital anywhere in the world. And that's going to happen…” (34:41, Trump)
• Hosts ponder why Democrats oppose the initiative—suggesting it’s blind anti-Trumpism rather than reasoned policy disagreement.

6. Interest Rates, Housing Market, and Economic Concerns (30:55-34:00)

• Trump, in a live press conference clip, argues interest rates are too high, costing the U.S. economy over a trillion dollars annually. (30:55)
• Clay links high interest rates to the broken housing market under Biden, predicting that a rate cut could unlock stalled real estate activity.
  • “Joe Biden broke the housing market… Trump understands interest rates. If he can get them back to 5%... the whole market opens up.” (31:28, Clay)

7. Generational Shift and the Democratic Party (37:33-40:00)

• Clay speculates that older, centrist Democrats (like Rahm Emanuel or Chris Matthews) are now functionally Republicans, as the party shifts radically left.
  • Clay: “The whole concept of a centrist Democrat doesn’t really exist anymore... It’s basically become a rational, common sense Republican.” (37:33)

---

Notable Quotes & Memorable Moments

• Clay, on crime and machismo:
  "I want there to be less people murdered in America...I thought, man, this is something that everybody could agree with. I was wrong." (08:03)
• Buck, on MSNBC attack:
  "Well, I'm glad Clay was able to take a moment to stop smashing beer cans against his face and... belching the Alphabet with all of his machismo..." (10:57)
• Clay, on liberal talking points:
  “I'm surprised that guy has kids because... that’s not an argument that sounds like someone with a functional penis would make…” (13:38)
• Chris Matthews, former MSNBC anchor:
  "You can't keep saying violent crime is down but the murder rate's up. To the average person, the murder up is about life and death. And the Democrats are... defending what's indefensible." (24:35)

---

Lighthearted Banter & Listener Interaction

• Friendly ribbing over Buck’s tennis serve speed, with on-air debates and plans for video proof, illustrates the show’s camaraderie and engagement with both family and audience. (05:29-07:16, 26:41-29:40, 47:59-48:39)
• Clay shares an email from a listener who called his beard “homeless,” leading to a humorous discussion about beards, graying, and family preferences. (45:29-47:59)
• Discussion on sports picks and the start of football season, emphasizing audience participation in fantasy games. (41:00-41:30)

Wednesday edition of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton show kicks off right now. We've got some great stories, big important things to dive into with all of you. The cleanup of DC Cleanup on aisle crime, if you will. I'm a dad now. I can make these kind of jokes. That is something that we're going to be discussing because Trump is running roughshod over the opposition. I think once again, their arguments increasingly pathetic, the numbers not supporting what they said they would. In terms of DC Is safe, DC Is safe. Clay and I both speak from experience here because not only have we lived there, but we know many people who still live there and have lived there their whole lives. No one says D.C. is safe. OK. No one who actually lives there thinks that it is a safe city. So, and I know that safe is a relative term. But Boston is a safe city. Like I could go around the country and talk to you. San Francisco, other than your property, is actually a pretty safe city, believe it or not, for violent crime purposes. You know, you go around and you can find plenty of places that are you, you would be safe. It is not one of them. It is not one of them. Washington, D.C. so we're going to discuss that. San Diego, very safe, actually. San Diego, very nice, very safe city, very expensive. So, you know, we could do the whole thing. El Paso, very safe. So you can go around. There's a lot of places not the case in D.C. we have also Trump speaking at the Kennedy Center. Some interesting cultural moves there. We have. Do we get to make an announcement today, Clay, about a little special something, something going on? Or is this just, is this a, is this a tease of a tease or can I talk about your situation?

[Clay Travis]

Oh, no, it's public. Yeah, yeah. I was like, oh, no, what's the what? Yeah, yeah, we're doing a, we'll get into that a little bit later. But we got a fun event coming up in September that I think a lot of people will enjoy. And so let's let you do a.

[Buck Sexton]

Big announcement Second hour on that, when you could lead everybody into that. But Clay has, and as we say, it is what you call a tease in the business. Clay has an announcement for all of you in the second hour. Something cool that's going on. Let's just say I may become Clay's cornerman. I may be there ready to cut, you know, may have to cut if Clay gets hit. Me. Gets hit. Let me get in there.

[Clay Travis]

Get in there, Clay.

[Buck Sexton]

Get in there. You know, so I'm. I'm looking forward to it. That'll be a lot of fun. Speaking of athletic endeavors, after the scurrilous accusations made yesterday about my tennis serve, there might be video that we'll be able to put up on Clay and Buck over the course of the next hour.

[Clay Travis]

Doubled, tripled, quadrupled, down on disbelief, believing that you could hit a test serve 100. Like we were picking up our youngest at school walking back, and I said, you know, I. Because I was on the phone, we were talking about Crockett, and I said, no, you know, Buck can really do this. And she said, I just don't believe it.

[Buck Sexton]

She.

[Clay Travis]

She said. She actually said. She actually said we went to Wimbledon probably seven or eight years ago, which was an awesome experience. And what's cool about Wimbledon is many things, but center court is huge. But there are a lot of small courts where you can sit basically on top of the right arms.

[Buck Sexton]

Yeah, that's the great thing about majors.

[Clay Travis]

And you see how they hit it, and it doesn't come across on television, the absolute power that these guys just smack the ball with. And so she was just like, there's no way Buck can hit a ball 100 miles an hour now. She didn't think I could bench press 185, 10 times. Laura generally believes neither of us can accomplish anything athletically is the overall recurring.

[Buck Sexton]

Theme on the show. Laura. Ye of little faith, Travis.

[Clay Travis]

Yes.

[Buck Sexton]

All right, we will. So I. I will post that video, and we can put it up at Clay and buck dot com. I'll send it to the team. They don't. Speed guns for tennis are actually tough to come by that are reliable. So we have video of a serve, and you can do the math on it. The distance from a baseline to the opposing service line is about 60ft. Very similar to a baseball distance, I believe. Clay. Is that right? Does that sound right? I think that's right. It's about 60ft from home plate to. So you can 66.

[Clay Travis]

60Ft, 6 inches, I think, or 60. I don't think it's 6, 6, 6. I think it's 60ft, 6 inches from pitcher's mound to home plate.

[Buck Sexton]

So very similar in the realm of baseball and tennis, distance. So those of you imagine that I am pitching instead of serving and you will get a sense as to the speed because that's the same distance when that ball hits the ground. Okay, we'll get into that though. We'll get into that. You know what, let's talk a big game. We'll see what happens when the video is unleashed and we'll do a poll. Do you think this is faster than 100 miles an hour? But we have important things to do like saving the country and getting into the news and looking at what Trump is up to. And Clay, I didn't know the range was hot. I didn't, I didn't know you were taking incoming on this one. But sure enough, this was over on. Was this MSNBC or cnn? It was one of the communist views.

[Clay Travis]

And let me just point this out before you play it. Of all the opinions I've ever given, I want there to be less people murdered in America. Seem to me to be one of the least controversial takes in my 20 year media career. Hey, I hate murders and I wish less people got murdered. I thought, man, this is something that everybody could agree with. I was wrong. I've been getting lit up over this. It's, it's really one of the funniest things.

[Buck Sexton]

I, I, I would, generally I would, as his cornerman, I would, I would rush to his defense on this. But this is, this is just weak sauce top to bottom. But here is a former Jeb, exclamation point, Bush comms director. So one of those Republicans who now just is a Democrat but refuses to say it and goes on Democrat channels to attack actual Republicans. Here he is attacking by name Clay Travis on MSNBC for saying things that all of us are saying. But here we go. Play one.

[Clay Travis]

This is all a power play, right? It's all about the vibes and the look.

[Buck Sexton]

And that's why you've got guys like Clay Travis on Fox News, I guess, rooting for living in a military state right now because they're trying to make demonstrate strength and machismo.

[Clay Travis]

And it's mostly more about that than about the policy.

[Buck Sexton]

Clay, your, your testosterone has just overwhelmed the MSNBC table over there, by the way.

[Clay Travis]

I don't even see how testosterone is involved in wanting less murders. Are there people with high levels of estrogen that just want more people murdered?

[Buck Sexton]

Excuse me, Clay. The claim was made that it was your overwhelming machismo that driving this.

[Clay Travis]

I will acknowledge to MSNBC that in comparison to virtually all of the men that appear on that network, I would have overwhelming machismo. But this felt like somewhat of a calculated attack Buck, because yesterday I'm just. Media Matters. Media Matters wrote the headline. This is a real headline. Out kicks Clay Travis. Federal takeover of D.C. should be a test case for whether we can go into other cities. And then they pulled. Here's my quote that they said was so unbelievable. I would like D.C. to be a test case for whether we could go into other cities where far too many people are being murdered and help to drive down the violent crime rate there as well. Uh, I. Again, I'm not surprised. Usually when people come after me or you for something that we might say, because there are things that we say that people on the left would be unhappy about. This, to me, is the least. Being in favor of there being fewer murders is the least controversial thing I may have ever said in my media career. But I think it's. It's indicative of their inability to pick rational things to fight about because they're just so reflexively anti Trump that even things that are not particularly political, hey, let's have less people die in D.C. they automatically line up against him on. It really is derangement. That is not getting better.

[Buck Sexton]

Well, I'm glad Clay was able to take a moment to stop smashing beer cans against his face and. And belching the Alphabet with all of his machismo, talking about how to bring crime criticism. Yeah, it was amazing. I saw that. I said, wow, really? Just. Just throwing elbows at my man Clay over this one, too. This is not even you. You say way crazy. No one even remembers what you said about Michelle Obama. I was like, oh, they're going to come after him on that one. But nope, apparently not.

[Clay Travis]

That's like the 740 controversial thing that I said yesterday. And somehow that's the one that they decided.

[Buck Sexton]

This is like when I got attacked on HBO for my hot take on sports for Simone Biles. Not being like the bravest for stepping out of an event. You remember that one. It's always the ones that you don't expect. It's always the ones, you know, the takes that you put out there that you don't. Ok, let's dive into now the crime situation and this back and forth, because I think, once again, Trump. Well, oh, wait, no, this was my favorite. This is my favorite. Anan, Jira Harad, Jirida Haradas Jiraharadis. I'm actually trying to get that one right. Jared Haradis was on Morning Joe. I did not see this live. Unfortunately, my Morning Joe viewing did not catch this one. But this is the kind of stuff that is being offered up. Meanwhile, Kash Patel is saying, yeah, FBI just arrested a whole bunch of very scary, very bad, bad dudes, bad people who have committed very serious crimes who are out there in D.C. so things are already happening. They're already taking action to take violent criminals off the streets. Over at MSNBC, this guy, Mr. Jiroda Hardis, is saying that this is what he's worried about. Play 2. A relatively small crime problem is being used for specific authoritarian purposes that we know and understand. So let's be clear about D.C. does have a really one really big crime problem, which was the January 6th insurrection incited by the current President United States. And his first act in coming back was pardoning all the people who tried to overturn constitutional republic order in Washington, D.C. when I go to D.C. i'm not afraid of losing my wallet so much as I'm afraid of losing my vote. I'm not afraid of losing my wallet so much as I'm afraid that my children's freedom to breathe will be stolen in a world where climate change policy is nonexistent. Clay I'm not scared of crime in D.C. i'm scared of climate change. Might be the most perfect distillation of lib MSNBC delusion I have ever heard post Covid. I mean, it might be the craziest thing, and I'm sure he's not alone in believing this.

[Clay Travis]

I think that opposing Trump trying to bring down violent crime in D.C. maybe the craziest anti Trump position that Democrats have taken yet. I I, I look, there are other things. Trump, I think, has exposed them on men and women's sports, for instance, but that's a choice they made prior to Trump. This is a direct response to Trump saying, I want to bring down the overall death rate in the country in our nation's capital. I want it to be a beautiful jewel of a city with low crime, low homelessness, less graffiti, less waste product everywhere. And this guy comes on and says that he's worried about climate change more than he's worried about being mugged. I First of all, that's a lie. There is no one who, especially an effeminate man like him, there is no one out there walking the streets of D.C. late at night that is thinking as they breathe the air, oh my goodness, I am terrified of climate change. But thank The Lord. I don't have to worry about getting somebody knocking me in the back of the head. That doesn't exist. And this is one of the things that I think is exposing Democrats is their arguments are so profoundly inauthentic that even people who might believe in climate change don't believe that argument. And I'm surprised that guy has kids because I, frankly, that's not an argument that sounds like someone with a functional penis would make. Um, so congratulations to him on that, I guess. But this is, you know, maybe that's machismo coming out of me, but come on. Like, this is not. This is not a real argument that a rational human being would make, and he doesn't even believe it. Right. I mean, this is, this is the essence, I think, of their collapse as a party, why they keep hitting new lows in support, and why they basically have no men in America that are supporting the Democrat Party. Now. Would that have functional brains at all? I think it's arguments like these.

[Buck Sexton]

Spoken like the mansplaining machismo expert himself, Clay Travis, all the machismo. Just, just, you know, oh, I can't handle it all. Yeah, man. Crime is bad. And anyone who's lived in D.C. or spent time there knows that this has been a. Remember at one point it was the murder capital of the United States. I understand it's gotten a lot better since then, but it also got a lot worse in 2023 relative to where it has been in the 21st century. And there's also more and more evidence that they're cooking the books and that the prosecutors are downgrading felony crimes to non felonies to make things look better. Anyone who has seen the show the Wire remembers this, and anyone who's worked in a major police department knows this is something that is a temptation for the brass. Oh, yeah, we're doing a great job in this precinct because we're actually not doing the arrest that we were doing before or on the prosecutorial side. Same idea. We're just going to downgrade all these arrests to something that's not a big deal.

[Clay Travis]

Also, Jan6 as in some way a, you know, the worst day for America since the Civil War. Even trying to continue to make that argument, which is something that Kamala Harris and Joe Biden tried to sell. There was barely a blip when Trump pardoned everybody who was involved in Jan6. Now, partly that's because Biden pardoned his entire family right beforehand, but I also think it's an understanding that they played that for every ounce that they could. And there's just no juice left in that, in that orange, so to speak.

[Buck Sexton]

I'm telling you when I'm walking down the street, I'm not worried about climate change, but I am worried about identity theft, because that can hit any of us. The real thing that's out there, that's a real crime to be concerned about. Credit cards get hacked. Social Security numbers can be used once they're stolen to open up bogus accounts online.

[Clay Travis]

Welcome back in President Trump, I think, is still talking. By the way, another press conference and I do think it's worth mentioning. You haven't heard a single even discussion point of the 25th Amendment in Trump 2.0. I think Greg, our producer, had a great clip where it was comparing and contrasting the way they went after Trump's health compared to Biden's. And Trump is taking questions at all moments. We'll pull some of those cuts. But he is continuing to explain why he's making the decisions that he is surrounding D.C. and I don't think there's any way to avoid or ignore that. Next year is the 250th anniversary of the country. And I think one reason that Trump wants Washington, D.C. to be ready for its proverbial close up is because there are going to be many different really awesome events to celebrate the 250th birth of our country. And so again, this is now, what, three days that Trump has basically owned the news cycle by saying I'm going to clean up DC and we're going to have violent crime. And then tomorrow the news cycle will pivot to Trump is traveling to Alaska. He's going to meet with Vladimir Putin, and that will lead us through the whole weekend. And whatever Democrats were trying to talk about is going to vanish. Heck, remember Texas redistricting? It's like that story has already completely vanished. And I do think this is Trump's unique ability to really be able to dominate the narrative cycle and take command of it.

[Buck Sexton]

It's been remarkable to watch as Democrats try to do this. Even Chris Matthews, by the way, this is cut 10. He's a democrat who used to have his show on MSNBC. He's like Democrats are cuz he lives in the D.C. area. He knows they're defending the indefensible. Play it.

[Clay Travis]

I think this is a strength move against the big cities who are in a difficult situation. On crime and the murder rate. You can't keep saying violent crime is down but the murder rate's up. To the average person, the murder up is about life and death. You don't brag about a rising murder rate. And the Democrats are, they're falling into the trap of defending what's indefensible.

[Buck Sexton]

They are. We've been telling you this, right? I mean, this is. When is it funny? You'll hear things on Clay and Buck and we'll be taking a position here. And then you'll hear the smarter, higher iq, more realistic Democrats the next day say exactly what we've said on this show.

[Clay Travis]

Because it's. Well, I think there's just, there is still a rational element and it tends to be the older Democrats like Chris Matthews as opposed to the younger socialists like Zoran Mandami.

[Buck Sexton]

Not a matter of whether you're going to have cell phone service every day for the rest of your life. It's a matter of which company you're going to rely on. PureTalk is the one to go with My friends, I've had PureTalk for years now. They are fantastic. Not ATT, Verizon or T Mobile. PureTalk service is on the same towers and network as one of those other companies, but at a fraction of the cost. For just 25 bucks a month, you can get unlimited talk, text, plenty of data on America's most dependable 5G network. To give you perspective, the average sized family of four saves more than $1,000 a year when they switch to PureTalk. And with PureTalk's US customer service team, you can switch hassle free in as little as 10 minutes. You can even keep your phone and your number. So make that switch to PureTalk today. Save money and get better customer service and go with an all American company.

[Clay Travis]

That shares your values.

[Buck Sexton]

Using your cell phone, dial £250 and say the keywords Clay and Buck. Just use your phone now. Dial £250. Say the keywords Clay and Buck. Switch to Pure Talk today. Welcome back to Clay and Buck. Shots were fired. Shots have been returned on the tennis court. The video is up. We're putting it [e-mail]. for those of you who aren't on X, put it elsewhere as well. Now, I, I understand where this is going. You're gonna, you're gonna see that serve. I'm gonna give Laura the opportunity to watch the video.

[Clay Travis]

Clay, I just tagged her. I just tagged her on social media.

[Buck Sexton]

I'm going to let her retract.

[Clay Travis]

I'm just telling you, she is not going to retract. Retract.

[Buck Sexton]

She's going to scurriloss attack.

[Clay Travis]

She's going to demand that there be radar.

[Buck Sexton]

I'm going to find. I have many police friends here in Miami and I. Because I think. Would a. Would a radar gun for a car work for a serve, too? I don't know. This is. I got to figure this out. Like, this is.

[Clay Travis]

I don't know what the, what the method by which they measure the speed of a serve, but anybody who watches tennis has seen immediately after every serve, they flash it up. It's sponsored by Rolex or somebody, I think. Right.

[Buck Sexton]

Usually IBM shot Spot. They have all these things. Yeah, but that's like very high tech and a multimillion dollar, you know, enterprise of the technology involved.

[Clay Travis]

Somebody in Miami, in the super high end tennis universe has got the ability to. I bet they have this.

[Buck Sexton]

I'm just gonna say. I'm just gonna say, you know, Laura has the opportunity to retract the scandalous accusation, the scandalous doubting of my serve after seeing video because I'm a gentleman. If she wants though, the.

[Clay Travis]

The radar gun, she's not going to accept. I'm just telling you, I've been.

[Buck Sexton]

We got to put a stake. We got to put a stake wager on this. We're going to have to. She's going to have to take, you know, I don't know which steakhouse in Nashville. And we'll do. We don't. We'll take her to the dancing steakhouse here in Miami Beach. If I'm wrong. All right. We'll go to the fun place. So. Cause I think, I think she sees that video, she might get a little. Might feel a little iced on this one. I could be a little. You know, I think she's going to be surprised. This has been the story of my life. People underestimate the strength and speed of the buckster because he just looks cuddly. But it turns out that there can be. There can be surprises in store. All right, man.

[Clay Travis]

The comments, by the way, on Twitter after I shared this. You're getting lit up. People are not. They're actually lining up behind our Alara. Maybe 80 miles an hour. Maybe. And let's see here. Maybe 70 miles an hour. 67. About 75.

[Buck Sexton]

People are out of their minds. People are out of their minds. No. No idea. No idea what they're talking about. The pros serve routinely now 125, 130 miles an hour. So if Laura had said 120, I'd be like, that's tough. 100 miles an hour. Play the women's tennis players. Women's tennis players routinely 110 miles an hour now. So just tell.

[Clay Travis]

They are asking Grok to answer the question on Twitter now. I don't know if Grok.

[Buck Sexton]

Wow, I didn't think about that.

[Clay Travis]

That's actually a. AI would think does potentially have the ability to actually. To actually time this out. So you can go see the video for yourself from Buck's Twitter account at Buck Sexton. I just retweeted it. Laura Travis is in meetings for the house that we are building. So we will. I will let you know when I hear.

[Buck Sexton]

I'm just. I'm just telling you. The average. The average pro tour women serve. The average women serve is about 100 miles an hour. Now, the question is not can I serve in a match every serve over 100 miles an hour. The question is, can I juice it over 100 miles an hour one time and get it in. I mean, if any of you can do math, you could. 60ft. Look at that. You could do slow mo if you want. 70 miles. 70 miles an hour. That's. That's prepost. I throw a basketball 70 miles an hour. It's insane. So anyway. All right, all right, so. So now we get into real things. I'm just saying this is. You know, when. When one is called out on this, one is called out on this. I mean, we're. Did people think that Clay was using dummy weights when he did his 185 ten times? I don't know. Maybe some people thought that, but it turned out Clay could bench 185 ten times. All right, I know you don't come here for all the silliness only. So let's dive into some of the realities here of what Trump was just saying. You know, I want to. I want to do this. Interest rates, actually, because this. This has got to happen. It has been far too delayed. Trump was just speaking. He just. He just finished, right, guys? Because he was speaking while we went on air. He was going off for. For quite some time. Cut 32 here. TRUMP Talking about where interest rates need to be. Listen to this one. Play it.

[Donald Trump]

And now he's got us in a bad place. So we're paying 3 billion a year for each point. Now, I believe we should be three or four points lower. So that's over $1 trillion we pay every year in interest. And it's really just a paper calculation. You sign a document and you save almost a trillion dollars because that number equates very much to the bonds that we have to buy. But despite that, we're powering through it and we have the greatest economy maybe we've ever had.

[Buck Sexton]

I think this is going to be fantastic for the economy.

[Clay Travis]

Look, the number one thing, and I'm just going to keep hammering this, we were just talking about this off air. I have been in my house for 10 years. I have like a 2.8% interest rate because that was the rates that you could get at some point over the past decade. If, however you, if you're, if you're fortunate enough to have a rate like that, which many of you are, you don't want to move. If you are unfortunate. And you bought just a couple of years after that, right? You bought in 2022, you bought in 2023. You've got around a 7% interest rate on your house and you are desperate to be able to bring that rate down. And it just hasn't happened. But that disconnect has broken the housing market. Joe Biden broke the housing market and Trump understands interest rates. If he can get them back to 5% on the mortgage rates, if you can get them to four and a half, then all of the housing market suddenly opens up, people are willing to pay a bit more. You had a kid, maybe you had a kid leave college and you leave for college and you don't need the same size home anymore. It is just, I think the number one bottleneck right now that exists in our economy is the mortgage run up from around two and a half points to seven overnight, basically because Biden let inflation go to 9%. And people can always say, well, 7% historically is not, you know, a crazy awful rate for a mortgage. I understand that argument, but in the context of going from about 2 and a half to 7 plus in the space of about 18 months is truly unheard of in much of modern life for most people out there buying homes. So this is, this is the thing. Trump's 100% right on. Now, inflation has not taken off. There is an expectation that the Fed is going to lower rates in September, maybe also in October, probably going to get a half basis point minimum before the end of the year. So if you were out there and you're looking at housing markets and you're thinking about making a move to the extent that you want to listen to Clay Travis, interest rate aficionado, I would say if you start to buy sometime around Thanksgiving, you're probably going to get a much lower rate going forward and hopefully those rates will continue to get cut going into 2026. So you can add mortgage rate expert to my list of, of, of things that I've predicted here. A lot of you are way better versed in interest rates than me, but I do spend enough time about involved in it. I know you've got different properties. I've been involved in a variety of commercial real estate transactions over the years, still have a bunch of and then personal residents. So this is a big deal and Trump knows this better than anyone. And Jerome Powell's been a disaster. He was too late to stop inflation and now I think he's been too late to bring back down the rates that he was forced to raise rapidly because he was too late. He's always too late reacting to the underlying economic data in my opinion. I think Trump's right about this.

[Buck Sexton]

He also goes into this here. He says on the issue of the crime, this is cut 29. What we want to do is make wash. Well, let's let the president say it, play it.

[Donald Trump]

What we want to do is make Washington D.C. the greatest, most beautiful, safest capital anywhere in the world. And that's going to happen. I mentioned the word bones before. The bones here, the bones, we have the greatest bones. When you look at that Supreme Court building, I think it's one of the most beautiful buildings. When you look at some of the buildings here are so magnificent and everything's good but it's just dirty and not properly maintained. It's not taken care of, potholes in the roads. All of it's going to happen very quickly. We're going to seek a relatively small amount of money for fix up.

[Clay Travis]

I just, I don't understand how this is something that Democrats have decided they're going to be opposed to. It just it to me is one of the most ridiculous arguments maybe that they've ever adopted.

[Buck Sexton]

I think that this is another situation where maybe they just there's that reflexive anti Trumpism that comes across and they think, well that's what I have to do. And now they've created this position for themselves where like why wouldn't you want the FBI dealing with violent crime on the streets? You know, why wouldn't you want people to be in a situation where they're safer? And it reminds me a little bit of the immigration issue which is at they started off, remember they're used to just being able to say it's racist and, like, we are a nation of immigrants and all this stuff. Well, first of all, on the racist point, majorities of minorities in this country want a secure border, too. So that's tougher than ever to sell. But, Clay, they started out going after. What was that guy's name, the one who got sent to. You know what I mean?

[Clay Travis]

Abreu Garcia.

[Buck Sexton]

Abreu Garcia. They started out that.

[Clay Travis]

That story has completely vanished, by the.

[Buck Sexton]

Way, because I think it's defending Ms. 13 gang members. Ms. 13 gang members. And you know, you sit there, you just say to yourself, this is something that's not going to go well for them. But you almost get the sense that there's no adult in the party who is out there to say, hey, guys, you know, this is, this is not helping you. Right? Like, there's no voice of reason from the top of the Democrat Party. Not that there ever really is, but there's usually a savvy. You know, there's somebody who can read the polls and understands. Look, as much as he was a dementia patient, Biden knew even at the height of blm, not to go with defund police. Yeah, he was a savvy enough cat or his advisors were not to go with defund the police. It's like right now there's no voices in the Democrat Party who are really, or at least that are big because we're playing some Democrats, right, Like Chris Matthews, but there's no big prominent voices who are saying, guys, on this crime thing, you got to at least say we have a better approach to it. The DC's really safe. You're lying. It's such a great city and no one should worry about this or we should worry about climate change. Just makes you look insane.

[Clay Travis]

Here is a guy. Let me give you a name that I think could come out of nowhere in 2028 in the Democrat primary process. Rahm Emanuel, I think he is a relatively normal, rational guy who is in the 1990s era Democrat. Which, by the way, 1990s era Democrats are basically Republicans now. In fact, there are a ton of you out there who maybe in your younger days might have voted Democrat in the 1990s, and you now are voting for Trump because the whole concept of a centrist Democrat doesn't really exist anymore, by and large. It's basically become a rational, common sense Republican. And I think Rahm Emanuel is of that ilk in the 1990s Democrat now. That's what they tried to run. Joe Biden as and Buck. The question that I think is still floating around out there is are any of the Democrats that try to take the moderate, rational, common sense lane, are they actually just going to be liars like Biden was and then as soon as they get into office, bend their knee to the progressive wing of the party and go out there and run the country not as some form of centrist but as a far left winger? That's what Biden did, right? Biden was a sheep, a wolf in sheep's clothing, right? They pretended that he was not, that he was Grandpa Joe and he wasn't really going to do anything that aggressive. And then they got him in there and I don't think he really had any idea what was going on. And they ran him like he was Bernie Sanders. And I think that's why his entire political universe collapsed. Not to mention he had dementia and so he didn't have the mental or physical ability to stand up to any of these guys. Look, football's back on Thursday or Friday. I'll give you a pick for the preseason. We'll have some fun. But it is underway. All of the games are being played and you can play Prize picks in over 40 states. California, Texas, Florida, Georgia.

[Clay Travis]

Welcome back in Clay Travis Buck Sexton show, we'll have some fun. The talkbacks are phenomenal from you guys, relating to yesterday's show, I'm sure from today's show also. But my buddy Gary, who told me that I had the beard of a homeless man after we talked about him. First of all, he's a big fan, so I appreciate him still listening. He said, clay, I listened to your show today as I do most days. My wife and I enjoy your show tremendously. You were discussing the email regarding your homeless appearance. That was my email. Sorry about that, but I couldn't resist. Please shave the beard. My wife and I lived in middle Tennessee For a number of years. We love the area. Maybe we will see you down the road. If you will speak to me, Gary. Smiley face, Louisville. So. So, Gary, who has gone from. I don't know. I don't. I've shaved the beard before, and my wife said, no, just put it back on. I've had a beard for 23 years, so that's a long time to have a beard. So I. You know, I remember when I was a kid, you ever go on vacation and you get your dad to not shave and see if he can grow a beard, and you think it's kind of a fun thing. I imagine kids today still. I took the beard off on a vacation. I was like, okay, I'm gonna do the reverse. And my kids were like, no, no, no. And Laura was like, yeah, really? You need to grow the beard back. So I think I need to cover up as much of my face as possible is the big takeaway here, Gary. Although I will say, now that my beard is going white, I am noticing how many of you out there are. I don't know why beards go white before the hair, but a lot of you out there are dying your beards, and I just gotta call you out because now that I'm getting into my upper 40s, there's no way that you're 65 and you have a midnight black beard. Nobody buys it. You're. You're out there doing the. The painting of the beer. I don't even know how you dye your hair. I've never done it so far. But I don't know what I'm gonna do when I've got the full white beard and still the dark hair. That's kind of a weird look. I don't even know biologically why that would happen. Somebody out there is probably an expert and can explain this. Have you noticed that, Buck, your beard goes gray for almost all men before your hair does? What would make. Why would that make sense? I mean, I know the beard hair is shorter, so maybe it's getting replaced more frequently, but it doesn't make sense to me that that would happen first. These are kinds of things I sit around and think about.

[Buck Sexton]

I used to think that I'd have to sort of cut out, like, little bits of the gray. Now I just go with the gray. You've got a nice. You've got, like, a silver fox thing on the chin going there, buddy. So you just gotta lean into it. I'm just gonna say this because there's a lot of doubters out there still. Oh yeah, a lot of doubters big I bought a speed gun just now. I just spent 200 on a speed gun. Now I want to be clear. I just posted the first serve that I hit yesterday on a video. The bet is can I get it over 100 miles an hour. I want to be clear about this. Can I get it over 100 miles an hour in the box serve gun video you will have an answer and I'm paying attention to all of the doubters here. You will have a video answer with speed gun by Monday.

[Clay Travis]

You just bought the speed gun during the break during the commercial.

[Buck Sexton]

I just bought a 200 tennis serve speed gun. Some of you gonna be eating your words and my serve.
