our favorite person in the world our favorite time of the week Megan Kelly loving to see you gez didn't a few people notice our last conversation thank you thank you thank you little do they know we we do that every week they've been missing all the fun correct 100% all right well I don't know if I supposed to say happy holidays right now or is it Happy Thanksgiving or happy you know in between REO bashes what's the right way to talk uh you know to a friend after Thanksgiving we switch over to Merry Christmas we
we say Merry Christmas remember that was the retort we say Merry Christmas and we say it brly that correct you know medals for anyone who was part of the the war on Christmas for those so many years all right let's let's talk about Hunter Biden so the pardon is not a surprise your reaction on the show is completely correct which was okay the only people who didn't see this coming are the same people who' had the blinders on who thought that Kamala was winning but the devil in the detail is what I wanted to talk
to you about so he's completely off the hook from everything from the start of 2014 till a couple of days ago that means barisma that means uh all of the the the the Russian disinformation time and it also means any crimes while Dad was President yeah 100% it's all been wiped away there is no way of getting after him uh whatsoever at least not with a federal government and there would be no state government that would be going after him for or would have even jurisdiction over these alleged crimes but but um yeah he's clearly
decided that we can't touch anything he did I believe at Joe Biden's behest I mean I believe Joe Biden was in on the whole scheme and was not just some you know poor concerned Dad wondering what his drug adult son was up to I think he was well aware of what his son was up to like we're going to pretend that as a sitting vice president he didn't have the power to say hunter you may not sit on the board of a Ukrainian Energy company while your dad as vice president is the pointman for the
administration on Ukraine like you may not it's a no um of course he could have he did it because I believe that email was right that they found on the hunter Biden lap laptop 10% for the big guy and Joe Biden does have a nice beach house in Delaware and you know a nice Porsche they don't pay the lawmakers over here very well so where did his money come from and I guarantee before we get to him passing the Baton to Trump we're going to see more Biden family hardens including of his brother Jim Biden
who's also part of this Racket and he might even try to do the self- pardon because I do think there's more to be found around this story and unless they're completely insulated the odds are team Trump will try has anyone explained why I mean traditionally when when stuff like this happens it happens day of transfer because it's it'll be buried underneath all of the images of a new president taking the oath is there any suggestion as to why this had to happen now um the speculation is that he didn't want him to get get sentenced
that once the sentencing you know and he was looking at three years on each charge uh once the sentencing was handed down it would have been harder to make this look like a nothing you know now it's like it's like he was found guilty but come on this is all political let's move on as opposed to like he just dodged a six or 10e sentence while everybody else who commits these crimes has to serve that time so it could be that could be that they didn't want the official convicted felon label to attach which it
does when um you get sentenced so I I don't know but those make sense to me uh that he like to to avoid the sentencing he had to do it ASAP so uh let's talk about our dear friend Camala we didn't get a chance to talk about it because of the the Thanksgiving break that video where she turned up like frankly as we would say in Australia a pissed Auntie she was just you could almost hear the bottle rattling somewhere because that was not her finest performance and of course she could have done a doover
there were no questions why was that so bad I I do think she looked and sounded drunk I mean she truly was like don't you tell anybody they can't leave their power don't take away your power this is your power in your dreams and your aspirations don't take them away you I believe in you middle class it was so crazy I I don't know why they didn't do another take or four or wait four hours until she'd had some coffee or maybe she's just exhausted and this is how she sounds when she's absolutely exhausted but
then if you got a candidate like this is just another example of how her whole team is so clueless um why if you have a candidate who is exhausted let's go with that would you put her in a brown suit like what what telegraphs vibrancy less than brown tan I'm like what yeah and then the hair was like very like drab and forward it was like the sort of what Sally Field referred to as like a football helmet in Steel Magnolia and like her face was very sad it was like very downward turning and she
the Drone curtains yeah oh and the Ugly tan curtains behind her that really did make it look like something out of the USSR it was like is have they captured her is she where is she is is it Hawaii or is it you know Moscow I can't quite tell and uh you would put her in something vibrant you would you like make her seem a little warm and let me tell you I'm just not not to be too mean but given those other things I just said you would zoom out okay I'm just going to
say it zoom out ladies we've all been there there are the days we all need to be zoomed out on just like way back the other days we can take the extreme closeup but they're getting fewer and farther between as we get older let me tell you for K here as we are at the zoom out portion of this race so I honestly think this team is either totally clueless or mean what a minut so to die the campaign is still asking for donations now we know that's because they're broke they didn't just raise a
billion it was one and a half billion we know they went into dead but who is still giving money to a campaign that's been dead for a month I don't I don't know but they deserve it it's like it's the way we felt when we talked about on your show the black lives matter organizations turning out to be totally corrupt and fraudulent and they'd been taking all this money and put it in their pockets like we felt any sympathy at all for the ERS like okay good keep defrauding like I I I love it give
give to help KLA Harris you should you that that should be where you spend your political donations this year all of you who are inclined to do it like I can't believe the grift but I will say this that campaign team you and I corresponded about this privately her campaign team giving that interview um to pod save America explains so much they are just as clueless as she is it's not like they had these Wizards behind the curtain and just KLA couldn't execute my God they were dumb too everything was like very difficult circumstances you
know very terrible political headwinds you know the right track wrong track numbers in the country because of whom again I'm L this like who caused those what headwinds are those wait oh you know the inflationary the econ who's in office again who then they go on to say um the reason she stayed so empty on every answer she ever gave like well I'm not Joe Biden but I'm not Donald Trump I'm a new generation the the r of reason this is all thought out as it turns out and the reason was she she talked about
Joe Biden's policies and she said behind the scenes I was there for all of them I can't really disavow like and what Stephanie cutter the messaging person on the campaign team came out and said was we couldn't have a situation where we lost days of the news cycle trying to bat down the latest she was basically saying Biden Aid to come out and be like how dare she say she she criticizes him on immigration she was in the room saying she liked it that she actually would have opened the Border even more how how dare
she criticize him on the trans stuff she was farther to the left than we were on trans like they knew if they tried to create any distance they were going to get hit by the people who knew she was totally fine with everything he did and then these morons are sitting around going like I don't know I guess they they just want to change for some reason they didn't see her as the change kid like H whatever could it be well also I you know and one of the you know the the there's this guy
you know we're getting we're getting inside baseball but it's important right CU these were the people who were either making terrible decisions or unwilling to make the right ones or what it's not like they didn't have more money than God at some point right like15 billion dollar is an extraordinary amount of money like the entire presidential races only a couple of Cycles ago were that for all sides but I I I checked something because David Pluff you know the one of the Obama people says oh it's very hard for us to win in swing States
hang on um in five of the seven swing states there is a Democratic governor in seven of the Swing states there is a senator or in uh again five of the seven there are two Democratic senators so Democrats can and do win in those states she did it yet they were living in this world of trying to pretend oh which je we're really up against it man remember when we were sitting here sort of pulling out our hair and you could you know you could you could feel the vibe that we're like I don't know
is are they going to be able to successfully thanks to the media get this empty suit or this empty pant suit elected and it felt like it for a couple of weeks so they were in front they are the ones who buggered it up but you know we can't win in swing States please sure sure and but meanwhile they're like but it was very tight it was very tight it was tight everywhere except for just like a few small counties okay you lost all seven swing States it was not tight he won the popular vote
by 2.5 million it wasn't tight at all and they they're actually complaining about the money believe it or not they're they're like those trump super packs you know they had they had so much money they had a lot of money less than you guys way less than you guys what are you complaining about they they blew that money on these stupid celebrity endorsements on taking over the Las Vegas sphere which is this spherical Dome type thing where you can watch concerts now I'm like broadcasting her picture on the outside painting murals in Inner City Philadelphia
with her face and they were asked about that and they said well we really it was important to make people feel like they're part of something culturally you know that she was cool I'm like you probably should have stopped her with her stupid accents and her terrible cackle if you were working on cool you shouldn't have sent her out there we going to win going to win having a no one's sitting at home like yeah she's cool she badass and stupid like we should stay woke stay woke stay as woke as possible right no no
one no one but especially not young men is sitting at home thinking yeah you know I I feel like the best version of myself when I pull the lever for that yeah now um interestingly the polls have only got better for Trump since the election I think in part because you know there was that great reset the vibe that that you know is only just sort of starting to taper off um about that feeling of a reset they also seem to like that he's made a whole series of really decisive choices in the people he
wants to have around him um what are you feeling though about that process of not just announcing but now trying to get these people over the line I know that certainly the issues in and around the uh uh Pete hiith we've talked about before you've gone into great detail as well um what about the next stage of this thing between now and when he actually takes over I think most are going to make it most are going to make it across Elon among other things has um his super pack has said they're going to Target
any Republican who votes against Trump's nominees and elon's in there helping Trump pick the nominees so he's definitely invested and I think as a republic Senator I mean that's what they respond to Paul they're these are not noble people they respond to the almighty dollar and no one wants Elon Musk coming after them so unless it's like a completely indefensible pick um you know they're they're not they're going to vote for Trump's picks and I I discount marowski I discount Collins that's Alaska and Maine they're very Republican light I mean they are almost blue um
so that's fine the Republicans can lose them they'd be at 51 maybe they lose like a Mitch McConnell who just doesn't like Trump yeah on the the most egregious but that's 50 and JD Vance breaks that tie now you're getting down to like the Joanie erns of the world who's Iowa Red State reasonable I think it would take a lot to make her vote against a trump nominee so I it's going to be contentious but I think he's going to get 98% of what he wants yeah I think so too I just want to you
know put a pin in this one now I know that the the Donald's not interested in picking up the phone to anyone everyone's coming to him the Mitch McConnell thing I don't know one phone call something uh they have to build a bridge because otherwise there is going to be this stable three that are constantly going to turn around and remember this bloke ain't running anything anymore meaning he can run around everywhere in the Senate trying to sort of get in the ear of the people who who aren't up for election anytime soon so again
I I'm not suggesting that Trump's got to kiss the ring but maybe he's got to lean in the direction to at least put this thing away otherwise you're going to have the stable three that are constantly uh there and basically it doesn't matter that they had the majority they're back to as you say a permanent 50/50 what do you think the chances are of any of that happening it doesn't sound like Donald Trump you know apologizing is not his thing or even he wouldn't have to apologize but just like an olive branch I don't even
know whether it would work you know Trump not only has gone after McConnell in vicious terms and I you know there's no love loss there but even his wife I mean he's made con's wife like the center of his attacks for a long time and as you know for most men that's a much tougher one to forgive you can forgive the attack on yourself much quicker than you can forgive the attack on your spouse or your child so I'm not sure what what's going to happen there I think the best thing with Mitch McConnell will
be he is a republican he's a Conservative Republican there's no question so while I don't think he'll be a rubber stamp he unless there's really a a really good reason not to approve of the nominee he will and I don't think his Sway in the Republican Party holds a candle to that of Donald Trump Donald Trump has got this Republican party it's his for the taking and he will inflict political pain if they don't do what he wants some don't really have to deal with that as much because they're in more blue States like like
a you know um Lisa marowski in Alaska or Susan Collins in Maine but I think Trump's wrath is a lot scarier to most Republicans than whatever Mitch McConnell has left he's like you know we're watching the winter Christmas specials the you know like all the animated stuff that we watched back in the 1970s and you know though I don't know if you guys watch these in Australia but we're watching like you know Rudolph where they have winter and he loses his magic but then like he thinks he's in jail and like he he thinks maybe
he can Jin up or maybe I'm oh it's Santa Claus is coming to town anyway my point is he's like these few acorns I've got just these few acorn and they might be able to make the reindeer fly and that's Mitch McConnell he's got like two acorns he could make like two like two reindeer fly that's the only trick left in his little bag yeah the ghosts have sent it past all the rest of it now just before you go please tell me did you go home and explain to your beautiful husband Doug what a
pants man was because we got such reaction in Australia I know all the other stuff was but but Megan Kelly getting a hit around pants man did you go back and explain it to him and did he look at you as quizzically as you looked at me when I suggested pants man I did and I I think I missed an opportunity to call you that at the end when I saw your naked legs so that was sad but he said that we're we're learning a lot through my hits on this show there was you know
there was that there was all sorts of language that we've gone over and then there was the um tutorial that our daughter gave us on rise up bles rise of blights Rise of blights Rise of razor blades but you say it like rise up lights in you know American English and and you sound like an Aussie I love it excellent all right now we got one more week on the a which means one more chance to talk to you before we go on our summer break I can't wait to see you next week all the
best Alan oh it's a pleasure Paul see you guys soon
