Speaker 1 (00:01):
Bold, reverence, and occasionally random. The Sunday Hang with Playing
Buck podcast. It starts now.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
By the way, the Last Crusade best of the Indiana
Jones movies?
Speaker 1 (00:14):
Do you agree? I don't know if you can put
it ahead of Raiders. Definitely better than Temple of Doom.
And there only are three Indiana Jones movies. The rest
of them do not count. That's it's certainly the best
production value one is the last one, I think.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
I think it's one of the great things about having
kids is watching all the old movies again and getting
to see it through their eyes and as a kid.
Speaker 1 (00:40):
Raiders.
Speaker 2 (00:41):
Sorry, I love Temple at Doom because I think I
was the perfect age when that came out in theaters,
and that was back in the day when a movie
would come out in the summer and stay on the
entire summer. I remember Last Crusade. I don't remember the
exact release date, but I remember you drive by the
movie theater and you would see it and it stayed
on for like three or four months. The same thing
for Raiders of the Lost Ark Temple of Doom. You
(01:03):
could go see him multiple times. A lot of people did,
and wasn't easy to have a VCR back then. I
think it's Last Crusade.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
I think some people also this, say Temple of Doom.
You know, they kind of they throw Temple of Doom
under the bus a little bit. It's a great movie.
It's great. It's a great popcorn movie. It really it
really holds up, you know. It's it's not quite as
good as the first or the third in the trilogy,
but it's very good on its own.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
I think I think I said on this show that
watching it with my kids blew my mind because I
didn't realize that Temple of Doom is a prequel for
Raiders of the Lost Dark. Do you remember that, Like,
I think we had this conversation on the show. But
I bet if you missed that conversation once before, I
bet your mind is blown by me saying that because
(01:48):
I had no idea and it doesn't really logically add
up that it would have been. But yes, it was
a technically a chronological prequel, meaning it most people think
of it as a sequel, but it was actually before.
Speaker 1 (02:01):
I do think it's it's a fun thing too. I mean,
you're experience experiencing this with your kids. I'm sure a
lot of you out there are are experiencing this with you,
with your own children or your grandchildren even and that
is the great movies have already been made. They're not
making great movies anymore. So you will get to relive
the great movies of the you know, eighties, nineties, and
(02:24):
two thousands with I think your you know, with future generations,
because that will be considered, you know, the same way
that some people always think that like the Beatles and
the Rolling Stones are the greatest rock bands of all time.
You know, I think that the greatest movies of all
time will widely be considered what was made from you know,
nineteen eighty to twenty ten.
Speaker 2 (02:45):
I saw yesterday and I don't remember. I don't know
because you're such a younger man than me, whether you
remember this. But Kyle Brandt who shared this, I think
yesterday was the release date of the original Batman. Do
you remember when America just basically shut down with Batman
Fever in nineteen eighty nine.
Speaker 1 (03:04):
Jack Lewis, Yes, the Jack Nicholas Michael Keaton won because
there was the Adam West with the tights on Batman TV.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
Show that even that's how popular the movie in nineteen
eighty nine was But I'm telling you, when that movie
came out, Jack Nicholson's playing the Joker and you had
Michael Keaton as Batman, Kim Basinger as the attractive, you know,
sort of fem fatale in that movie. VI remember anything?
(03:33):
What was that Vicky Vaiale, Vicky Vale. That's right, that
was her, that was her role. I don't remember any movie,
and maybe it's just my age, but nineteen eighty nine
Batman coming out in the summer, there was so much
prep that and Dick Tracy. It felt like, remember when
Dick Tracy came out like Madonna. They tried to turn
that into the same.
Speaker 1 (03:54):
Thing and not take.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
But that whole summer oh so good. Crockett Coffee dot Com.
If you love America, you should be drinking our coffee.
Crocketcoffee dot Com. Biden's Kryptonite.
Speaker 1 (04:06):
Sunday, Hang with Clay and Bucks. The buck is back.
As you can hear, assuming you can tell my voice
from Clay's after jury duty yesterday where I served, Yes,
I was honorably discharged from my jury duty or dismissed
from my jury duty as and I showed up and
then they let me go. I'll tell you more about
that later on.
Speaker 2 (04:27):
It was an interesting right off the top though, how
long are you now cleared without do you know how
long you don't have to go back for? In?
Speaker 1 (04:34):
Only one year? Wow? So it's it's yeah, this may
become a more regular occurrence in my life. But I'll
tell you real quick that the the the downside is
the the courthouse here in Miami Dade looks like a
Soviet penal colony or something. I mean, it looks like
(04:55):
where they would have sent you it. Really, a courthouse
should have Roman columns, sweeping entrance, you know, it should
there should be the majesty of the state. And it
really this it's called the Gerstein Building, I think down
to Miami Dade, it looks like something that you know,
Stalin would have sent his enemies to. And it's not
even a prison, mind you. This is just the courthouse.
(05:17):
So there's that. But everybody actually was very professional. I
was impressed with the with one of the judges who
came out. We're in a room of about two hundred people,
I would say, just just stacked. I mean just people
shoulder to shoulder and all these chairs. The judge came
out gave us a little pep talk. I know you
don't want to be here. I know this seems like
it stinks, but it is your duty, and thank you
(05:38):
for being here. That's the short version of it. Everything
was going great. And then after lunch, when I had
not been picked for a jurrell morning and it was
getting close to I knew when I would get dismissed.
One of the bailiffs kind of looked at me a
little funny clay and the judge in this one trial
had gathered us all in the hallway outside the courtroom
to tell us what our fate would be. There was
(05:58):
a last minute please deal that was struck, which I
think this often happened.
Speaker 2 (06:03):
I told you, as soon as they get the jury ready,
the lawyers, the pressure to get a deal done always
comes up. That's that's like ninety percent of the time
what happens. You're there to drive the negotiation in the settlement,
and I.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
Just wanted to know what the case was even about.
We never even found out. But the judge was very,
very friendly, very polite. She she said, I know, I
have some good news for all of you. But the
bailiff came over and he looked at me and you know,
you get you know, he gave me the look like
wait a second, because everyone there thinks my name is James,
because technically that's my first name. He's like, I know you.
He's like, you're the guy. You're the guy from Fox
(06:36):
and from radio. And I kind of gave him like
a little quiet nod and I swear he turns a judge.
He goes, judge, you see this, I know this guy
from TV. I was like, this is in front of
all the other jurors, right, I'm like, let's keep that,
let's keep that down. And then one of our Jewish
brethren came over. He had a yamakah on came over
and he tugged my shirt and he's like, hey, thanks
(06:57):
for what you and Clay do every day. I was like, yes, victory, victory.
So anyway, and then we got all got dismiss So
that was jury dudy. Now let's get into news.
Speaker 3 (07:07):
Oh.
Speaker 1 (07:07):
The other thing is a reminder you never want to
be the target of the criminal justice system. And I
know that people say, oh, Trump is unstoppable for us
and look what he's been through and nothing can stop Trump.
Well yes, true, but just having to show up and
be a criminal defendant in a building like this for
a lot of people, I think would be soul crushing
and would really out on Moore them. You know, just
(07:30):
having to be there and you are on trial, would
be trying.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
To sleep if you faced legitimate prison time and you
knew your trial was coming up, you're out on bail
or whatever. I mean, the amount of physical stress associated
with the criminal justice system is a huge part of
the punishment itself, whether you're found guilty or innocent.
Speaker 1 (07:49):
I was trying to follow events yesterday from the jurm.
The wi FI was kind of bad, unfortunately, so I
had to pop in it out is when does Bannon
report for his sentence. He's in, He's in. I believe he.
Speaker 2 (08:01):
I believe he is now in the prison, and I
know he did his show yesterday and we talked some
about it. You get staff in New York can confirm
that he's been officially admitted in. In theory, he would
be there until November one as a part of serving
that four month sentence which I talked about yesterday.
Speaker 1 (08:19):
Buck.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
I actually think is a hugely underdiscussed story that if
you're just merely associated with Trump. They're legitimately putting you
in jail for your political belief.
Speaker 1 (08:30):
Yeah, they are absolutely tearing down any sense of fairness
in the justice system to get at Trump, not just
with Trump, but with people around him. I want you
all to know that we reached out directly to Steve
and his team and invited him to come on before
he started his sentence, because we wanted him to be
able to make sure everybody knows that he's being targeted.
And you know, we clearly stand with Steve. He's a
(08:51):
fighter for his principles and we wish him well while
he is dealing with what he's dealing with right now.
You know, I have Steve's the kind of guy who's
going to go into prison though and make like he'll
make friends. I'm just saying he's very He's a very
charismatic guy. I'm sure he doesn't want to be in prison,
but I'm saying, you know, he's he'll be okay. I
have a lot of a lot of faith and confidence
in him. He'll come out and he'll come out even stronger.
(09:15):
But I will I'll tell you this, Clay. The one
thing that I was that was very apparent yesterday is
I was sitting in that jury room as you as
you know, getting ready for Well it turned out getting
ready for nothing because I didn't get to sit on
a jury or even get to go through Voadir. But
the decision came down from the Supreme Court yesterday, and
I know you've talked through the you know, the the
(09:36):
specifics of it with the audience already and everyone's pretty
up to speed. But it was amazing because the twenty
four hour cycle has played out. What I've seen is
how many people have completely lost their minds and shown
themselves to be either either lacking in reading comprehension. I
(09:57):
mean they really have like a soda mayor level of
reading comprehension, which is not high. Sundays with Clay and
Vuss Kamala Harris is the VP. The job of a
vice president, first and foremost is to be there in
case of if you have a president who can no
longer do the job, or God forbid, something terrible happens
(10:19):
too you have a person who just shows up that day,
not even the next day, and takes the reins. You
have a commander in chief ready to go. It is
an immediate succession plan. That's what it is, so what's
all the fuss about then, right, If it can't be Biden,
it must be Kamala. How could you go around Kambala?
(10:40):
Why would you go around Kamala? And if she is
so incompetent and so politically unpalatable to the elector, and
why did you pick her as vice president in the
first place, Joe Biden? That is yet another act of malpractice,
political malpractice that I think we could point to. But
let's get into this because it's you would be so simple,
(11:01):
you know, if let's just say we flip around the
you know, flip the script, flip around the history here
of two thousand and eight to twenty sixteen. You know,
if you had had Biden at the top of the
ticket and Barack Obama as the vice president, let's say,
and at some point Barack Obama was in a position
to have to take over because of Biden's dementia, it
(11:23):
just would have happened, right, There wouldn't have been any
Oh my gosh, what can you no? It would have happened.
Vice presidents have taken over many times in the past
for presidents, so this is long established. Why is this
such a crisis. You have to ask yourself, why is
it such a crisis. We know what the plan is.
The plan has been laid The plan was laid out
(11:44):
by the founding fathers. The president can't do it. He's
too old. We all see it. Vice president steps in.
Why can't the vice president step in? Well, I bring
you Clay Kamala Harris trying to look cool, normal and
relatable at the BET Awards over the weekend. This is
(12:04):
what that sounded like, playing, Madam VP Harris. I'm worried
about the election.
Speaker 4 (12:09):
Women's reproductive rights are on the line.
Speaker 1 (12:12):
Our Supreme Court is on the line.
Speaker 4 (12:14):
Our basic freedoms are being tested.
Speaker 1 (12:16):
Madam BP.
Speaker 4 (12:18):
I know you've been traveling across the country.
Speaker 1 (12:20):
What are you hearing?
Speaker 4 (12:21):
Yeah, girl, I'm out here in these streets, and let
me tell you you're right to Raji. There is so
much at stake in this moment. The majority of us
believe in freedom and equality. But these extremists, as they say, they're.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
Not like us.
Speaker 3 (12:36):
They not.
Speaker 4 (12:37):
There's a full on attack on our fundamental freedoms. The
freedom to vote yep, the freedom to love who you love,
the freedom to be safe from gun violence, the freedom
for a woman to make decisions about her own body,
not having her government tell her what to do. They
want to turn back the clock on our hard fought progress.
(12:57):
Now I know why to cage burres things.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
Okay, you we know on the cage burn sink.
Speaker 1 (13:04):
She really said that. I didn't see this whole video.
Speaker 2 (13:06):
I'm sorry that I cannot even keep a straight face
from many of these lines, Clay.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
Uh. For for Kamala Harris, first of all, who lives
in a literal taxpayer funded mansion surrounded by armed guards,
uh the secret Service. Uh. But for for Kamala Harris
to to to say, I'm out here in these streets. No, actually,
you're you're really uh you know, you're your Your attempt
to be so relatable sounds like somebody who is not
(13:36):
out in these streets but is pretending. You know, this
is like when John Carrey went duck hunting and everybody's like,
which do you even know which under the shotgun the
noise comes out of? Like you have no idea what's
going on here? Clay, do you.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
Remember the scene.
Speaker 1 (13:48):
It's become very memorable. Uh.
Speaker 2 (13:51):
Where on Seinfeld the Father, I think it's Ben Stiller's dad.
Jerry Stiller played George Costanza's dad, and he has like
he gets a skateboard and he's got it like over
his shoulder, but he's clearly seventy five years old and
he's trying to pretend like.
Speaker 1 (14:06):
He's like hello, fellow kids or whatever.
Speaker 2 (14:08):
He say, yes, yes, it's a super very popular meme
on social media. This reminds me, and I know we've
played this before, but when Hillary Clinton tried to talk
like southern and also black and she was like, I
ain't even remember like the eight even tired.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
With the shoes or something. You know, Yeah, I mean
it was.
Speaker 2 (14:30):
One of the all time fake politician speeches. Yeah, Kamala Harris.
Speaker 1 (14:36):
Hillary said, I ain't no ways tired, that no ways tired.
Speaker 2 (14:41):
I no, he's tired.
Speaker 1 (14:43):
I'm sorry.
Speaker 2 (14:44):
Like these people are just morons. They're just so fake,
like own what you are. Kamala Harris is a rich
woman married to a rich Jewish lawyer from La. She's
not in these streets. What does she say, they ain't
like us or something like come on? And even Taraj Hinson,
(15:06):
who's a really good actors, sounds awful in this. If
she can't pull it off, then Kamala is certainly is
not going to be pulling it off.
Speaker 1 (15:14):
And do we have but this is important, do we
have James Clyburn yet? Guys? I just sent this one
in where he is talking about what should happen in
terms of we do have it? Okay, this is so
just just one way of backstory for one second. We
all remember Biden was not winning the twenty the twenty
twenty primary. He was done, he was done.
Speaker 4 (15:36):
It was like.
Speaker 1 (15:38):
Elizabeth Warren and Bernie and you know, we thought we
were gonna have a straight up socialist, the honest socialist
instead of a Democrat probably, and then all of a sudden,
South Carolina James Clyburn, the black vote boom, Joe Biden
is the nominee, and Joe Biden ends up becoming the president.
James Clyburn has been asked here about support for Kamala
(16:00):
situation here with Biden and Kamala. I want you to
listen very closely to what this Democrat power broker has
to say.
Speaker 5 (16:07):
How would you feel if they worked around and tried
to go around Kamala Harris because of her lack of
high poll numbers and popularity and broadly based do you
think it's hers to have If it's not his, I.
Speaker 3 (16:20):
Will support her if he were to step aside, but
I'm want to support her going forward. Sometime in the future.
I want this ticket to continue to be Biden Harris,
and then we'll see what happens after the next election. No,
this spot is should not in any way do anything
(16:42):
to work around miss Harris. We should do everything we
can to bolster her, whether it's a second place or
at the top of the ticket.
Speaker 1 (16:52):
Play. This is laying out that this has been what
I've been saying all along. It will be viewed as
a betrayal, particular by Black Democrat voters, particularly by Black
Democrat female voters. If Kamala Harris is just shoved aside
for some other person not picked by Democrat voters, mind you,
(17:13):
picked by a bunch of Democrat party hacks, perhaps in
the smoke filled the room, so to speak, of the
White House, perhaps at the convention. There is no way
to do this without catastrophe.
Speaker 2 (17:26):
Okay, so let me ask you this is this a
little bit of four D chess by Cliburn. Is he
saying that it has to be Kamala to actually protect Biden?
Speaker 1 (17:40):
In other words, maybe yes, I would I would believe.
I would believe that.
Speaker 2 (17:43):
Because the strongest argument Biden has is if it's not me,
it has to be Kamala, because I think that makes
people take a step back and say, oh wait, we
have to go Kamala, like and Cliburn. You pointed it out.
He basically after after Biden finished. I think it was
sixth in Iowa, fifth in New Hampshire or fifth in Iowa,
(18:08):
fourth in New Hampshire.
Speaker 1 (18:09):
Awful. Not in the win play show category.
Speaker 2 (18:11):
He wouldn't have gotten a medal if you got medals
for coming in the top three. Clybird made him the nominee,
default made him president. I'm wondering, iven he's an ally,
whether the Biden team is going to start getting their
surrogates to say, hey, Biden's got to be the guy,
but if he's not, it's Kamala, which they view as
(18:32):
strengthening Biden.
Speaker 1 (18:34):
I think I think the the end effect. Yes, I
think what you're saying is true, which is why I
keep coming back to it's going to be Biden everybody,
because if it's not Biden, it's Harris. And I think
there's an even more certain belief in Harris losing to Trump.
Than there is in Biden losing to Trump. And if
you run Harris this time around and she gets absolutely destroyed,
(18:54):
then you're also taking her out of play entirely for
the future. Now, people might say, well, they won't care
about that, you know, they may think that they can
build her up. She'll be a surrogan in the future. Look,
Joe Biden was a clown. Now he's president. Nobody in
politics thought that Joe Biden was a smart guy or
could ever be president, but it somehow happened anyway, And
I think that they believe that they want to keep
(19:16):
her as a viable option for the future. Remember, it
is not an eight year arc that they are worried about,
because it's going to be Trump. On the Republican side,
they will start running another candidate in two years after
the election. I know. It's like, oh my god, are
we ever And the answer is no. And America will
really never out of an election cycle. I mean there's
maybe a six month honeymoon after the four year presidential
(19:39):
cycle and that's about it. So with that, in my clay,
you're putting somebody in a position where they're taking over
a can't win situation. You much rather have it be
the incumbent president who's defeated and you never have to
think about it again. Why give somebody a big loss,
whether it's Harris or even in the other oftens people
(20:00):
about Whitmer or Newsom, when you could run them in
two years and try to build them up for an
eight year long presidential art.
Speaker 3 (20:08):
Right.
Speaker 1 (20:09):
That's the part of it that I think is also
not thought about enough as to why Biden Harris is
going to be the ticket. And I also look, people's
memories are short, man. You know, people forget stuff. People
have already forgotten that Joe Biden was basically threatening to
have everybody who didn't want to get a worthless COVID
shot fired.
Speaker 2 (20:28):
Okayosha like people, we agree with that. But what people
don't forget is their basic decision about whether or not
somebody's competent. And I think that's the problem Biden has.
Every public appearance he has, there is further evidence he
just tried to go talk about extreme weather events and
he couldn't read the prompter correctly. There it reinforces what
(20:50):
people already have decided. And by the way, they're trying
report that. ABC News propagandist George Stepolis has an exclusive
first television interview with Biden since the debate. Let me
say this, every single news organization, if they cared about
(21:11):
being honest, would insist on Joe Biden live unedited at
this point in time, if they cared about being honest,
because his competency is.
Speaker 1 (21:22):
A question, which they do not.
Speaker 2 (21:23):
But yes, but yeah, don't you agree with me like
it should be live and unedited in an interview. But
what I'm saying is, if you truly are trying to
assess competence based on an interview, and that's what Biden
wants to do, live and unedited should be the only
parameters for No.
Speaker 1 (21:40):
I agree with you, and that's why it's clear that
that is not what they are trying to do. They're
trying to launder the disastrous debate performance into something other
than that, which was a parent for everyone to see.
But I think people are underestimating. Look, it's July. We've
got a long time here. We're not talking about a president.
(22:00):
We're not talking about a lead of twenty points for
Trump nationally or something. I think people are underestimating what
the Biden machine will be able to do. And I
worry that people are underestimating. If it has to be
Kamala Harris, they get to create a whole new narrative.
And I understand we don't have COVID like we did
in twenty twenty and that Biden with the but there's
there's still a lot of places where they have the
mail in balloting. They still have the vote a vote,
(22:24):
ballot harvesting setups in place. They you know, they've they've
got that stuff down.
Speaker 2 (22:29):
They elected is the ultimate trump card in Pennsylvania. If
they can get betterment anyone five, they will get their
vote out no matter who the nomination.
Speaker 1 (22:38):
Telling you Republicans are, we're getting a little soft, and
we're celebrating a little early, and we shouldn't be celebrating
at all because we don't even know what they're going
to do, and whatever they're going to do, it's going
to be a close and hard fought contest to the end.
Speaker 3 (22:54):
All Right.
Speaker 1 (22:54):
The one thing that I know, the one hundred percent
certainty about Democrats is that you cannot overstate their lust
for power. Okay, you cannot over look at how insane
they are. You're reading the Supreme Court decision like they're
they're basically suffering from a mass delusion of mass mental illness,
and that is their political party right now, So don't
(23:14):
don't underestimate what they're willing to do and how close
they're able to make this
Bold, reverence, and occasionally random. The Sunday Hang with Playing
Buck podcast. It starts now.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
By the way, the Last Crusade best of the Indiana
Jones movies?
Speaker 1 (00:14):
Do you agree? I don't know if you can put
it ahead of Raiders. Definitely better than Temple of Doom.
And there only are three Indiana Jones movies. The rest
of them do not count. That's it's certainly the best
production value one is the last one, I think.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
I think it's one of the great things about having
kids is watching all the old movies again and getting
to see it through their eyes and as a kid.
Speaker 1 (00:40):
Raiders.
Speaker 2 (00:41):
Sorry, I love Temple at Doom because I think I
was the perfect age when that came out in theaters,
and that was back in the day when a movie
would come out in the summer and stay on the
entire summer. I remember Last Crusade. I don't remember the
exact release date, but I remember you drive by the
movie theater and you would see it and it stayed
on for like three or four months. The same thing
for Raiders of the Lost Ark Temple of Doom. You
(01:03):
could go see him multiple times. A lot of people did,
and wasn't easy to have a VCR back then. I
think it's Last Crusade.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
I think some people also this, say Temple of Doom.
You know, they kind of they throw Temple of Doom
under the bus a little bit. It's a great movie.
It's great. It's a great popcorn movie. It really it
really holds up, you know. It's it's not quite as
good as the first or the third in the trilogy,
but it's very good on its own.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
I think I think I said on this show that
watching it with my kids blew my mind because I
didn't realize that Temple of Doom is a prequel for
Raiders of the Lost Dark. Do you remember that, Like,
I think we had this conversation on the show. But
I bet if you missed that conversation once before, I
bet your mind is blown by me saying that because
(01:48):
I had no idea and it doesn't really logically add
up that it would have been. But yes, it was
a technically a chronological prequel, meaning it most people think
of it as a sequel, but it was actually before.
Speaker 1 (02:01):
I do think it's it's a fun thing too. I mean,
you're experience experiencing this with your kids. I'm sure a
lot of you out there are are experiencing this with you,
with your own children or your grandchildren even and that
is the great movies have already been made. They're not
making great movies anymore. So you will get to relive
the great movies of the you know, eighties, nineties, and
(02:24):
two thousands with I think your you know, with future generations,
because that will be considered, you know, the same way
that some people always think that like the Beatles and
the Rolling Stones are the greatest rock bands of all time.
You know, I think that the greatest movies of all
time will widely be considered what was made from you know,
nineteen eighty to twenty ten.
Speaker 2 (02:45):
I saw yesterday and I don't remember. I don't know
because you're such a younger man than me, whether you
remember this. But Kyle Brandt who shared this, I think
yesterday was the release date of the original Batman. Do
you remember when America just basically shut down with Batman
Fever in nineteen eighty nine.
Speaker 1 (03:04):
Jack Lewis, Yes, the Jack Nicholas Michael Keaton won because
there was the Adam West with the tights on Batman TV.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
Show that even that's how popular the movie in nineteen
eighty nine was But I'm telling you, when that movie
came out, Jack Nicholson's playing the Joker and you had
Michael Keaton as Batman, Kim Basinger as the attractive, you know,
sort of fem fatale in that movie. VI remember anything?
(03:33):
What was that Vicky Vaiale, Vicky Vale. That's right, that
was her, that was her role. I don't remember any movie,
and maybe it's just my age, but nineteen eighty nine
Batman coming out in the summer, there was so much
prep that and Dick Tracy. It felt like, remember when
Dick Tracy came out like Madonna. They tried to turn
that into the same.
Speaker 1 (03:54):
Thing and not take.
Speaker 2 (03:56):
But that whole summer oh so good. Crockett Coffee dot Com.
If you love America, you should be drinking our coffee.
Crocketcoffee dot Com. Biden's Kryptonite.
Speaker 1 (04:06):
Sunday, Hang with Clay and Bucks. The buck is back.
As you can hear, assuming you can tell my voice
from Clay's after jury duty yesterday where I served, Yes,
I was honorably discharged from my jury duty or dismissed
from my jury duty as and I showed up and
then they let me go. I'll tell you more about
that later on.
Speaker 2 (04:27):
It was an interesting right off the top though, how
long are you now cleared without do you know how
long you don't have to go back for? In?
Speaker 1 (04:34):
Only one year? Wow? So it's it's yeah, this may
become a more regular occurrence in my life. But I'll
tell you real quick that the the the downside is
the the courthouse here in Miami Dade looks like a
Soviet penal colony or something. I mean, it looks like
(04:55):
where they would have sent you it. Really, a courthouse
should have Roman columns, sweeping entrance, you know, it should
there should be the majesty of the state. And it
really this it's called the Gerstein Building, I think down
to Miami Dade, it looks like something that you know,
Stalin would have sent his enemies to. And it's not
even a prison, mind you. This is just the courthouse.
(05:17):
So there's that. But everybody actually was very professional. I
was impressed with the with one of the judges who
came out. We're in a room of about two hundred people,
I would say, just just stacked. I mean just people
shoulder to shoulder and all these chairs. The judge came
out gave us a little pep talk. I know you
don't want to be here. I know this seems like
it stinks, but it is your duty, and thank you
(05:38):
for being here. That's the short version of it. Everything
was going great. And then after lunch, when I had
not been picked for a jurrell morning and it was
getting close to I knew when I would get dismissed.
One of the bailiffs kind of looked at me a
little funny clay and the judge in this one trial
had gathered us all in the hallway outside the courtroom
to tell us what our fate would be. There was
(05:58):
a last minute please deal that was struck, which I
think this often happened.
Speaker 2 (06:03):
I told you, as soon as they get the jury ready,
the lawyers, the pressure to get a deal done always
comes up. That's that's like ninety percent of the time
what happens. You're there to drive the negotiation in the settlement,
and I.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
Just wanted to know what the case was even about.
We never even found out. But the judge was very,
very friendly, very polite. She she said, I know, I
have some good news for all of you. But the
bailiff came over and he looked at me and you know,
you get you know, he gave me the look like
wait a second, because everyone there thinks my name is James,
because technically that's my first name. He's like, I know you.
He's like, you're the guy. You're the guy from Fox
(06:36):
and from radio. And I kind of gave him like
a little quiet nod and I swear he turns a judge.
He goes, judge, you see this, I know this guy
from TV. I was like, this is in front of
all the other jurors, right, I'm like, let's keep that,
let's keep that down. And then one of our Jewish
brethren came over. He had a yamakah on came over
and he tugged my shirt and he's like, hey, thanks
(06:57):
for what you and Clay do every day. I was like, yes, victory, victory.
So anyway, and then we got all got dismiss So
that was jury dudy. Now let's get into news.
Speaker 3 (07:07):
Oh.
Speaker 1 (07:07):
The other thing is a reminder you never want to
be the target of the criminal justice system. And I
know that people say, oh, Trump is unstoppable for us
and look what he's been through and nothing can stop Trump.
Well yes, true, but just having to show up and
be a criminal defendant in a building like this for
a lot of people, I think would be soul crushing
and would really out on Moore them. You know, just
(07:30):
having to be there and you are on trial, would
be trying.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
To sleep if you faced legitimate prison time and you
knew your trial was coming up, you're out on bail
or whatever. I mean, the amount of physical stress associated
with the criminal justice system is a huge part of
the punishment itself, whether you're found guilty or innocent.
Speaker 1 (07:49):
I was trying to follow events yesterday from the jurm.
The wi FI was kind of bad, unfortunately, so I
had to pop in it out is when does Bannon
report for his sentence. He's in, He's in. I believe he.
Speaker 2 (08:01):
I believe he is now in the prison, and I
know he did his show yesterday and we talked some
about it. You get staff in New York can confirm
that he's been officially admitted in. In theory, he would
be there until November one as a part of serving
that four month sentence which I talked about yesterday.
Speaker 1 (08:19):
Buck.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
I actually think is a hugely underdiscussed story that if
you're just merely associated with Trump. They're legitimately putting you
in jail for your political belief.
Speaker 1 (08:30):
Yeah, they are absolutely tearing down any sense of fairness
in the justice system to get at Trump, not just
with Trump, but with people around him. I want you
all to know that we reached out directly to Steve
and his team and invited him to come on before
he started his sentence, because we wanted him to be
able to make sure everybody knows that he's being targeted.
And you know, we clearly stand with Steve. He's a
(08:51):
fighter for his principles and we wish him well while
he is dealing with what he's dealing with right now.
You know, I have Steve's the kind of guy who's
going to go into prison though and make like he'll
make friends. I'm just saying he's very He's a very
charismatic guy. I'm sure he doesn't want to be in prison,
but I'm saying, you know, he's he'll be okay. I
have a lot of a lot of faith and confidence
in him. He'll come out and he'll come out even stronger.
(09:15):
But I will I'll tell you this, Clay. The one
thing that I was that was very apparent yesterday is
I was sitting in that jury room as you as
you know, getting ready for Well it turned out getting
ready for nothing because I didn't get to sit on
a jury or even get to go through Voadir. But
the decision came down from the Supreme Court yesterday, and
I know you've talked through the you know, the the
(09:36):
specifics of it with the audience already and everyone's pretty
up to speed. But it was amazing because the twenty
four hour cycle has played out. What I've seen is
how many people have completely lost their minds and shown
themselves to be either either lacking in reading comprehension. I
(09:57):
mean they really have like a soda mayor level of
reading comprehension, which is not high. Sundays with Clay and
Vuss Kamala Harris is the VP. The job of a
vice president, first and foremost is to be there in
case of if you have a president who can no
longer do the job, or God forbid, something terrible happens
(10:19):
too you have a person who just shows up that day,
not even the next day, and takes the reins. You
have a commander in chief ready to go. It is
an immediate succession plan. That's what it is, so what's
all the fuss about then, right, If it can't be Biden,
it must be Kamala. How could you go around Kambala?
(10:40):
Why would you go around Kamala? And if she is
so incompetent and so politically unpalatable to the elector, and
why did you pick her as vice president in the
first place, Joe Biden? That is yet another act of malpractice,
political malpractice that I think we could point to. But
let's get into this because it's you would be so simple,
(11:01):
you know, if let's just say we flip around the
you know, flip the script, flip around the history here
of two thousand and eight to twenty sixteen. You know,
if you had had Biden at the top of the
ticket and Barack Obama as the vice president, let's say,
and at some point Barack Obama was in a position
to have to take over because of Biden's dementia, it
(11:23):
just would have happened, right, There wouldn't have been any
Oh my gosh, what can you no? It would have happened.
Vice presidents have taken over many times in the past
for presidents, so this is long established. Why is this
such a crisis. You have to ask yourself, why is
it such a crisis. We know what the plan is.
The plan has been laid The plan was laid out
(11:44):
by the founding fathers. The president can't do it. He's
too old. We all see it. Vice president steps in.
Why can't the vice president step in? Well, I bring
you Clay Kamala Harris trying to look cool, normal and
relatable at the BET Awards over the weekend. This is
(12:04):
what that sounded like, playing, Madam VP Harris. I'm worried
about the election.
Speaker 4 (12:09):
Women's reproductive rights are on the line.
Speaker 1 (12:12):
Our Supreme Court is on the line.
Speaker 4 (12:14):
Our basic freedoms are being tested.
Speaker 1 (12:16):
Madam BP.
Speaker 4 (12:18):
I know you've been traveling across the country.
Speaker 1 (12:20):
What are you hearing?
Speaker 4 (12:21):
Yeah, girl, I'm out here in these streets, and let
me tell you you're right to Raji. There is so
much at stake in this moment. The majority of us
believe in freedom and equality. But these extremists, as they say, they're.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
Not like us.
Speaker 3 (12:36):
They not.
Speaker 4 (12:37):
There's a full on attack on our fundamental freedoms. The
freedom to vote yep, the freedom to love who you love,
the freedom to be safe from gun violence, the freedom
for a woman to make decisions about her own body,
not having her government tell her what to do. They
want to turn back the clock on our hard fought progress.
(12:57):
Now I know why to cage burres things.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
Okay, you we know on the cage burn sink.
Speaker 1 (13:04):
She really said that. I didn't see this whole video.
Speaker 2 (13:06):
I'm sorry that I cannot even keep a straight face
from many of these lines, Clay.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
Uh. For for Kamala Harris, first of all, who lives
in a literal taxpayer funded mansion surrounded by armed guards,
uh the secret Service. Uh. But for for Kamala Harris
to to to say, I'm out here in these streets. No, actually,
you're you're really uh you know, you're your Your attempt
to be so relatable sounds like somebody who is not
(13:36):
out in these streets but is pretending. You know, this
is like when John Carrey went duck hunting and everybody's like,
which do you even know which under the shotgun the
noise comes out of? Like you have no idea what's
going on here? Clay, do you.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
Remember the scene.
Speaker 1 (13:48):
It's become very memorable. Uh.
Speaker 2 (13:51):
Where on Seinfeld the Father, I think it's Ben Stiller's dad.
Jerry Stiller played George Costanza's dad, and he has like
he gets a skateboard and he's got it like over
his shoulder, but he's clearly seventy five years old and
he's trying to pretend like.
Speaker 1 (14:06):
He's like hello, fellow kids or whatever.
Speaker 2 (14:08):
He say, yes, yes, it's a super very popular meme
on social media. This reminds me, and I know we've
played this before, but when Hillary Clinton tried to talk
like southern and also black and she was like, I
ain't even remember like the eight even tired.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
With the shoes or something. You know, Yeah, I mean
it was.
Speaker 2 (14:30):
One of the all time fake politician speeches. Yeah, Kamala Harris.
Speaker 1 (14:36):
Hillary said, I ain't no ways tired, that no ways tired.
Speaker 2 (14:41):
I no, he's tired.
Speaker 1 (14:43):
I'm sorry.
Speaker 2 (14:44):
Like these people are just morons. They're just so fake,
like own what you are. Kamala Harris is a rich
woman married to a rich Jewish lawyer from La. She's
not in these streets. What does she say, they ain't
like us or something like come on? And even Taraj Hinson,
(15:06):
who's a really good actors, sounds awful in this. If
she can't pull it off, then Kamala is certainly is
not going to be pulling it off.
Speaker 1 (15:14):
And do we have but this is important, do we
have James Clyburn yet? Guys? I just sent this one
in where he is talking about what should happen in
terms of we do have it? Okay, this is so
just just one way of backstory for one second. We
all remember Biden was not winning the twenty the twenty
twenty primary. He was done, he was done.
Speaker 4 (15:36):
It was like.
Speaker 1 (15:38):
Elizabeth Warren and Bernie and you know, we thought we
were gonna have a straight up socialist, the honest socialist
instead of a Democrat probably, and then all of a sudden,
South Carolina James Clyburn, the black vote boom, Joe Biden
is the nominee, and Joe Biden ends up becoming the president.
James Clyburn has been asked here about support for Kamala
(16:00):
situation here with Biden and Kamala. I want you to
listen very closely to what this Democrat power broker has
to say.
Speaker 5 (16:07):
How would you feel if they worked around and tried
to go around Kamala Harris because of her lack of
high poll numbers and popularity and broadly based do you
think it's hers to have If it's not his, I.
Speaker 3 (16:20):
Will support her if he were to step aside, but
I'm want to support her going forward. Sometime in the future.
I want this ticket to continue to be Biden Harris,
and then we'll see what happens after the next election. No,
this spot is should not in any way do anything
(16:42):
to work around miss Harris. We should do everything we
can to bolster her, whether it's a second place or
at the top of the ticket.
Speaker 1 (16:52):
Play. This is laying out that this has been what
I've been saying all along. It will be viewed as
a betrayal, particular by Black Democrat voters, particularly by Black
Democrat female voters. If Kamala Harris is just shoved aside
for some other person not picked by Democrat voters, mind you,
(17:13):
picked by a bunch of Democrat party hacks, perhaps in
the smoke filled the room, so to speak, of the
White House, perhaps at the convention. There is no way
to do this without catastrophe.
Speaker 2 (17:26):
Okay, so let me ask you this is this a
little bit of four D chess by Cliburn. Is he
saying that it has to be Kamala to actually protect Biden?
Speaker 1 (17:40):
In other words, maybe yes, I would I would believe.
I would believe that.
Speaker 2 (17:43):
Because the strongest argument Biden has is if it's not me,
it has to be Kamala, because I think that makes
people take a step back and say, oh wait, we
have to go Kamala, like and Cliburn. You pointed it out.
He basically after after Biden finished. I think it was
sixth in Iowa, fifth in New Hampshire or fifth in Iowa,
(18:08):
fourth in New Hampshire.
Speaker 1 (18:09):
Awful. Not in the win play show category.
Speaker 2 (18:11):
He wouldn't have gotten a medal if you got medals
for coming in the top three. Clybird made him the nominee,
default made him president. I'm wondering, iven he's an ally,
whether the Biden team is going to start getting their
surrogates to say, hey, Biden's got to be the guy,
but if he's not, it's Kamala, which they view as
(18:32):
strengthening Biden.
Speaker 1 (18:34):
I think I think the the end effect. Yes, I
think what you're saying is true, which is why I
keep coming back to it's going to be Biden everybody,
because if it's not Biden, it's Harris. And I think
there's an even more certain belief in Harris losing to Trump.
Than there is in Biden losing to Trump. And if
you run Harris this time around and she gets absolutely destroyed,
(18:54):
then you're also taking her out of play entirely for
the future. Now, people might say, well, they won't care
about that, you know, they may think that they can
build her up. She'll be a surrogan in the future. Look,
Joe Biden was a clown. Now he's president. Nobody in
politics thought that Joe Biden was a smart guy or
could ever be president, but it somehow happened anyway, And
I think that they believe that they want to keep
(19:16):
her as a viable option for the future. Remember, it
is not an eight year arc that they are worried about,
because it's going to be Trump. On the Republican side,
they will start running another candidate in two years after
the election. I know. It's like, oh my god, are
we ever And the answer is no. And America will
really never out of an election cycle. I mean there's
maybe a six month honeymoon after the four year presidential
(19:39):
cycle and that's about it. So with that, in my clay,
you're putting somebody in a position where they're taking over
a can't win situation. You much rather have it be
the incumbent president who's defeated and you never have to
think about it again. Why give somebody a big loss,
whether it's Harris or even in the other oftens people
(20:00):
about Whitmer or Newsom, when you could run them in
two years and try to build them up for an
eight year long presidential art.
Speaker 3 (20:08):
Right.
Speaker 1 (20:09):
That's the part of it that I think is also
not thought about enough as to why Biden Harris is
going to be the ticket. And I also look, people's
memories are short, man. You know, people forget stuff. People
have already forgotten that Joe Biden was basically threatening to
have everybody who didn't want to get a worthless COVID
shot fired.
Speaker 2 (20:28):
Okayosha like people, we agree with that. But what people
don't forget is their basic decision about whether or not
somebody's competent. And I think that's the problem Biden has.
Every public appearance he has, there is further evidence he
just tried to go talk about extreme weather events and
he couldn't read the prompter correctly. There it reinforces what
(20:50):
people already have decided. And by the way, they're trying
report that. ABC News propagandist George Stepolis has an exclusive
first television interview with Biden since the debate. Let me
say this, every single news organization, if they cared about
(21:11):
being honest, would insist on Joe Biden live unedited at
this point in time, if they cared about being honest,
because his competency is.
Speaker 1 (21:22):
A question, which they do not.
Speaker 2 (21:23):
But yes, but yeah, don't you agree with me like
it should be live and unedited in an interview. But
what I'm saying is, if you truly are trying to
assess competence based on an interview, and that's what Biden
wants to do, live and unedited should be the only
parameters for No.
Speaker 1 (21:40):
I agree with you, and that's why it's clear that
that is not what they are trying to do. They're
trying to launder the disastrous debate performance into something other
than that, which was a parent for everyone to see.
But I think people are underestimating. Look, it's July. We've
got a long time here. We're not talking about a president.
(22:00):
We're not talking about a lead of twenty points for
Trump nationally or something. I think people are underestimating what
the Biden machine will be able to do. And I
worry that people are underestimating. If it has to be
Kamala Harris, they get to create a whole new narrative.
And I understand we don't have COVID like we did
in twenty twenty and that Biden with the but there's
there's still a lot of places where they have the
mail in balloting. They still have the vote a vote,
(22:24):
ballot harvesting setups in place. They you know, they've they've
got that stuff down.
Speaker 2 (22:29):
They elected is the ultimate trump card in Pennsylvania. If
they can get betterment anyone five, they will get their
vote out no matter who the nomination.
Speaker 1 (22:38):
Telling you Republicans are, we're getting a little soft, and
we're celebrating a little early, and we shouldn't be celebrating
at all because we don't even know what they're going
to do, and whatever they're going to do, it's going
to be a close and hard fought contest to the end.
Speaker 3 (22:54):
All Right.
Speaker 1 (22:54):
The one thing that I know, the one hundred percent
certainty about Democrats is that you cannot overstate their lust
for power. Okay, you cannot over look at how insane
they are. You're reading the Supreme Court decision like they're
they're basically suffering from a mass delusion of mass mental illness,
and that is their political party right now, So don't
(23:14):
don't underestimate what they're willing to do and how close
they're able to make this
