Speaker 1 (00:00):
Welcome to today's edition of the Clay, Travis and Buck
Sexton Show podcast. Oh my goodness, I have no idea
what might happen during the course of today's show, but
one request right off the top. Can we add audio
of a nice sizzling steak that I can call for
at any points time? Because the longest running bet of
(00:25):
the Clay and Buck Show history is about to pay
off a five. I'm going to dive into this the
greatest steak, as Trump might call it, that has ever
been cooked, and I'm not doing a medium well unlike
President Trump. Buck, I'll give you an open right off
the top. Here are you remaining? The public demands to know,
(00:51):
is Buck Island still flying the Biden flag high? Or
would you hear on the eve of our two hundred
and forty eighth in Dependence Day like to join so
many others in fleeing your island on whatever possible flotation
device might still be available on the island.
Speaker 2 (01:11):
I just want to make it very clear to everybody.
First of all, people are getting a little high falutin
right now at a little other high horses about how
oh looke Biden. No, No, do not celebrate early, do
not think that this is over yet. It might be
over the course of the show, and then we'll just
have to edit this out from the podcast at least.
But I have been very clear, that's all like Obama,
(01:33):
let me be clear. I have been very clear. It
is Biden or Harris. That has always been my position.
You're right, all right, this is I'm just gonna tell
Go to the transcript, everybody, go to the tape, Go
to my x feed or Twitter feed. Go see. I've
always said Bidener Harris. It is the Gavin Newsom, Michelle Obama, Whitmer,
et cetera talk that I have been very dismissive of. Now,
(01:57):
if forced into a corner I have, it would still
be Biden over Kamala. Under the circumstances. That component of
my analysis is not feeling so warm and fuzzy today. However,
the bet, my friend is Gav is third option versus Biden. Harris.
(02:18):
I just want clarity. No, no, no, no, it's Biden.
It's Biden or no Biden.
Speaker 1 (02:25):
I appreciate your Karjian Pierre Ministry of Disinformation spin here.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
It is Biden. Go back. There's a transcript, folks, there's audio.
This doesn't have to be, you know, based on recollection,
and we're gonna go back and pull some of this.
Speaker 1 (02:40):
I've been very this is this is unbelievab Okay, so
a couple of things. I we were just talking about
this off air. Tomorrow is July fourth. I would have
usually this is you you would agree, I think, Buck,
one of the deadest days on the entire American calendar.
People are traveling, everybody's out of work. I mean, if
(03:03):
you put on Fox News at just about every host
is out this week and we're talking about, hey, we
may have to call in on July fourth, Yeah, because
it's possible news could break, or July fifth, which would
usually be a quiet day as well, that Biden is out,
(03:23):
and the way I would describe it, and I'm curious
if you would agree with me, Buck is First of all,
the absolute latest. The New York Times reported in the
last hour that Biden has had conversations with close out
with at least one close ally about dropping out of
the race. That is the latest news story that is
(03:45):
out there. He is, according to this story, this source.
I mean, let's really get into this for a second.
First of all, we may have an answer while we're
on the air, So you have to listen to us
today for all three hours. I know you're probably a
lot of you on the road, which is great because
then we'll entertain you while you're drying to your Independence
Day weekend celebration with family or whatever. But Clay, they
(04:07):
we'll get down into this. We may know the answer today.
They have reported that a close aid to Biden has
said that Biden is considering the possibility that he cannot
continue on because basically, after the debate he can't win.
There have been people in the Biden orbit, you know,
spokespersons the White House, who have said that report is
(04:27):
categorically false, which which is amazing what you would say
if you were still dependent on Biden for your job
and the the bowing out was not official yet. But
there is the Palace coup is the The effort is underway.
I will admit that there is an effort to push
Joe Biden aside. It's just a question of Kenny hang on.
(04:50):
Here's the headline right now, top of the New York Times.
Biden told ally that he is weighing whether to continue
in the race. Is the headline. Sub headline, The President's
conversation is the first indication he is seriously considering whether
he can recover after a devastating performance on the debate
(05:11):
stage in Atlanta on Thursday. That story went live and
was updated about forty five minutes ago, according to The
New York Times. Okay, interesting aspect of this. Things are
so much in an uproar that the Biden team, as
you just pointed out, is now saying that the New
(05:32):
York Times is fake news. Think about how crazy things
have gotten in the Democrat camp that Joe Biden's chief
advisor is saying that this is completely untrue. Here's Andrew Bates,
White House spokesman said the claim was absolutely false and
the White House had not been given enough time to respond.
(05:53):
I don't even know what that means, not enough time
to respond. The way that I read that book is
usually the White House is able to keep the New
York Times from writing stories they don't like. They get
on the phone with them, they scream at them, to
yell at them, and then the New York Times backs
up and says, Okay, we're not gonna run this here.
They went ahead and just ran it, and now we
(06:16):
have a situation where Joe Biden himself is saying that
The New York Times is fake news. That's how much
things have turned into an uproar. And by the way,
minute to minute, we're in this situation where anything could happen.
It would not stun me if I go on Twitter
and hit refresh if there is a breaking news story. Hey,
(06:37):
Biden hasn't decided to withdraw.
Speaker 2 (06:39):
It is July third, as we all know, and usually
and Clay and I have both been doing media now
for you know, over a decade in Clay's case several decades,
is much older than me, and and usually at this
case we'd be talking about like, hey, like what are
you which is fun by Hey, what are your Fourth
of July? I know it's Independence weekend, but you know
we all use the shorthand fourth of July plans. What
(07:02):
are you going to be barbecuing? And we might talk
about some of that in the third hour. But there
is a very serious possibility that today may be the
biggest day of political news so far this entire year. Yeah,
the most earth, I mean, bigger than the Trump verdict,
bigger than bigger than anything, bigger than Trump winning Iowa.
This could be the single biggest day in politics of
(07:24):
the entire year so far and maybe of the entire
presidential cycle when all said and done, So we really
mean it, you need to stick around with us.
Speaker 1 (07:31):
I mean, Buck, I think you could make an argument
that it could be the biggest day of presidential news
since nineteen sixty eight when LBJ said he wouldn't run,
Because I mean again, I correct me if I'm wrong,
and we'll put the crew on this. I don't think
we've ever had an incumbent president choose not to run
in the midst of an election year since LBJ in
(07:55):
sixty eight. So for many of you that are out
there listening to us, including Buck and me, uh, there
isn't a historical analogy that we have been alive for
when something like this would have occurred.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
And I'll tell you I was no surprise watching MSNBC
all morning and I'm telling you they're they're doubling up
on the early and their position. Yeah, Like I mean,
are they still defending Biden from your MSNBC viewing or
how would you assess the overall total? I mean, I
I really and you can tell by the guests they
(08:28):
have on and every they are solidly fence sitting right now.
Oh that's great. They're solidly noncommittal. They want to see
who's going to win this power struggle there, which is
interesting because remember they went full back Dad Bob right
after the bait. They were they were doing the whole
and right now they're going, ooh, let's sort of see
how this one shakes out. It's by the way, it's so,
(08:50):
it's so great to watch, it's so much fun.
Speaker 1 (08:52):
Tell so this is one of the great lines from
Old Country guys. Turtle doesn't get on a fence by
an accident. So right now MSNBC is the turtle on
the fence. They are intentionally staying right there. They ain't
going one direction or the other. They are right there
on top of the fence. And I I wonder how
(09:16):
we you know, way, we never got a reckoning for COVID.
Nobody's ever come out and said, hey, I was wrong,
We blew this. I was having this conversation with my
wife this morning, and I said, this might be the
story that causes the left wing New York Times Washington
Post to actually be so humiliated, because I think that's
(09:37):
what's going on right now. They have been humiliated by
the degree to which the left, the Biden administration was
demanding that they lie their own intelligence has been called
into question, and they've asked them to.
Speaker 2 (09:50):
Do too much.
Speaker 1 (09:51):
Now they'll still show up and say, Kamala Harris is
the modern day Nelson Mandela. If she's the nominee, Kamala
Harris is what Martin Luther King would have been if
he were still live today, right, Like, I mean, all
these puff pieces are coming. They'll try to turn Kamala
Harris into the greatest hero of modern American history. But
the Joe Biden's a good guy Joe Biden, it's cheap fakes.
(10:14):
The idea that he wasn't on top of his game
at D Day or the G seven or at Juneteenth.
Now when I read it and the New York Times
released a devastating column, sorry, reporting on Biden's frailty and
mental and physical deficiencies, and they cited all of the
stories that you and I have been talking about on
(10:34):
this show for months. One of my buddies, who's a
Biden voter, sent me that article and he was like, wow,
did you know about all this? He's busy, And I
was like, yes, yeah, people really trust the New York
Times to let them know what is going on. And
I think if you're super busy, there are still lots
of people who are just allowing that to be their source.
Speaker 2 (10:54):
Clay. There are people, many of them, who's only is
to tell the American people the truth about what is
going on inside the White House and specifically with the
President himself of the United States. There are every major
news organization has people that are assigned to that. You
(11:18):
know the joke you had one job. You know, the line,
you had one job, they had one job. And what
we realize, or rather what we see. I think we've
known this all along, but some people are coming to
this realization is that the job is actually to protect
Democrat interests. The job is not to report. And Charles
(11:39):
cook over at National Review, you probably saw this tweets
going viral, but I think this really nails it. Charles Wrights.
If you're looking for a broader takeaway from all this,
take how the press covered up Biden's infirmity because it
wanted to protect the Democrats and apply it to literally
every single thing that it does on any topic, in
any year, in any circumstance forever. That's what he says
(12:04):
the truth of the media. Charles nails it here. This
is that is their job. The people that think that
they failed by not reporting on Biden don't understand their
job is not to report the truth. Their job is
to help Democrat power and Democrat interests.
Speaker 1 (12:21):
On another part of that, I read this and I
laughed and I shared it Beckett Adam's Twitter account. Pulitzer
Prize winning newsrooms and pundits with six figure salaries all
missed the deterioration of Joe Biden's cognitive abilities, while accounts
with handles such as Patriot Moms seventeen seventy six and
Real Eagle Underscore Freedom have been pointing it out for
(12:44):
about five years. But that really kind of goes at
the essence in a funny way of what exactly we
have seen, and the fact that if you pointed it
out NBC News ten days ago, Buck accuse me of
being a chief purveyor of disinformation for sharing an actual
video Biden.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
Not being able to do his job. Yeah, the whole
phrase cheap fakes. You're not gonna hear a lot about
that anymore because those were all obviously real. I would
just want everyone to make sure though, that we frame
our thinking on this accurately. It is not that they
failed to notice this. Like Clay, you mentioned you have
a friend, yeah, who somehow didn't know. But anyway, whatever,
(13:22):
he trusted the news. Fine, people can trust the news.
That's on them. They got other lives, other things they're doing.
But for the people who work in the media, they
didn't miss this. This is like the fifty one intelligence
officers with the Hunter Biden laptop. They weren't fooled. They
lied to you. They lied. This was intentional, this was knowing.
This was willful. It was a top to bottom campaign
(13:46):
of dare I say misinformation about Joe Biden's age, frailty,
mental acuity, cognition, and they expect us to just get that.
And even people over at CNN I don't even want
to have to go through to name the names like, oh,
like look what we've discovered. No, you were part of
(14:07):
the fraud. You were part of the can the whole time.
You don't get to be the Oh, I'm a speaking truth,
I'm a journalist. I'm honest. Now, No, you went along
with this the whole time, and now the whole thing's
blown up in their faces and we'll see. I believe
there's a phone call which is gonna be happening within minutes, right,
I think it's scheduled. Is it's still scheduled for there's
a White House phone call on the schedule today, there's
(14:30):
like an all hands call, and then there's a Biden
Kamala lunch. You've seen that too. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (14:35):
Then they've got the governors in tonight, right, the governor
Democrat governors are all there.
Speaker 2 (14:40):
And I'm gonna tell you something right now, I have
a prediction for all of you about what's gonna happen.
I think I can see this pretty clearly. Clay, you're
gonna have to bring us back. Then.
Speaker 1 (14:50):
I want everybody to think I'm kind of blown away here.
Who do you trust more? The Biden administration or the
New York Times? Oh, this is a actually start feuding
with each other. I think it's actually a very hard
thing to try to figure out to get your heads
around that this could actually be happening.
Speaker 2 (15:07):
All right, let's dive right in here.
Speaker 1 (15:09):
If you need some energy, need some vitality, need some
vigor in your life, and you don't want to feel
like Joe Biden, you need to get hooked up with
our friends at CHALK. I'm not saying that if Biden
had slammed a Chalk chad mode right before he went
out for the debate, that he would have been extraordinary.
I am saying he probably would have not been talking
about falling asleep, which is what he was saying that
(15:31):
he almost did during the debate in the latest version
of why he didn't do well. He was tired, he
didn't have energy. He's admitting what everybody already knows. And
all of this is absolutely chaotic, insane, makes absolutely no sense.
Speaker 2 (15:46):
But that's where we are.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
If you want to have some energy in your life,
if you want to be able to actually not look
like Joe Biden when he is out on the debate stage,
you need to get hooked up right now with Chalk.
One easy thing to do. You can use my name Clay,
go to choq dot com if you want to go
on the website. Best deal on subscription out there. But
also if you would rather make a telephone call, you
(16:11):
can call five zero Chalk three thousand, say Clay and
Buck sent me. That's five zero CCHOQ three thousand US
based customer service team will be ready for you again.
You can go to Chalk dot com choq dot com.
You can use my name Clay. You can call fifty
Chalk three thousand, five zero CCHOQ three thousand Get hooked
(16:35):
up with energy today. Don't look like Biden on the
debate s date.
Speaker 3 (16:46):
Tense important news day today as the palace coup inside
the White House is certainly underway to push Joe Biden aside.
Speaker 2 (16:58):
But will it work? Will it be successful? That is
what we're going to be bringing you updates minute by
minute during the show today, because I'm gonna say this, Clay.
First of all, I think Joe Biden makes it through
the Independence Day weekend still has the nominee. I was
gonna say it.
Speaker 1 (17:15):
I think, do you think he breaks that he's gonna withdraw,
or do you think he's still like there's still no
public like he's out story all the way through Independence
to Day weekend.
Speaker 2 (17:25):
I think he's still. I think we wake up Monday
and he's still the nominee. That's what I think will happen.
But I also do believe that for the first time,
they're trying to induce him to step aside, which we
should talk about this. I do think that there are
powerful people who are like you gotta go.
Speaker 1 (17:43):
Ah, So this sounds like you are trying to leave
Buck Island to.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
Me, What do you mean? I think I think Trump.
I just said Biden's gonna I think Trump. I think
Biden's gonna be the nominee. Still that's not that's on
the island. Oh wait, wait, you're still not even on Monday.
You're saying he's gonna be there on November. Oh yeah,
we gotta connect. Yeah, I think he's still staying. Baby,
I don't think he's going. We'll talk about this. Save
yourself as much as one thousand dollars a year, folks,
(18:08):
when you switch your cell phone service to Pure Talk.
You see how expensive barbecue is going to be this weekend.
Thanks Biden. We want to save you money. So does
Puretalk their plans start. That's just twenty dollars a month fro,
unlimited talk, text, and plenty of high speed data, no
contract assigned to keep your same phone and number. Join
the droves of people making the switch. In fact, Pure
Talk experience a surge of sign ups in June because
(18:30):
of the charity that they are affiliated with that helps
veterans America's Warrior Partnership, so you can do great stuff
with the money that you were spending with your cell
phone company. When you switch to pure Talk and get
the best possible prices and service, all you have to
do is dial pound two five zero. Say the keywords
Clay and Buck. You'll be connected to Pure Talk's customer
service team. That's Pound two five zero from your phone,
(18:53):
Say Clay and Buck.
Speaker 1 (19:01):
Okay. As we went to break, I have to tell
you Buck Island seemed like it was about to be uninhabitable.
Maybe one of those islands that they decided they were
gonna test nukes around and everybody had to relocate because
it was no longer safe to be there.
Speaker 2 (19:20):
Buck Island as a nuclear wasteland, already closed.
Speaker 1 (19:22):
Some of those islands are beautiful in the off the
coast of Puerto Rico. You know they glow the dark
at night too. Yes, yeah, well that's the downside, but
they're they're easy to find. So you said, you think
he'll still be there on Monday. Yeah, this is what
Buck Island is down to. We think we have enough
(19:42):
coconuts to make it till Monday. We've got there's enough water.
We're hoping it's gonna rain. You are committed to November fifth,
or you're committed to Monday right now on buck Island.
Speaker 2 (19:54):
I again, we're gonna have to go back to the transcript.
So every it's very clear. I have said all along
it is by Harris. When there was all this Michelle
Obama talk which we all remember people calling in for
the last twelve months about oh, it's going to be
Michelle Obama, I said no, no, no, they said Gavin Newsom.
I said no, no, no, it's going to be Biden
or Harris. And that is the foundation of a stake.
(20:16):
Bet we will go back, we will check the transcript
on this one. How I can't believe you are waffling
like this.
Speaker 1 (20:22):
I'm going to your own Twitter account to do my
own research here because I seem to remember a recent
tweet that said it's going to be Biden everyone else
is a moron?
Speaker 2 (20:31):
Am I am? I wrong said that. I didn't say that.
That's not fair. I said that other talk that might
be rough, a rough version. That's a little harsh. That
made by characterization.
Speaker 1 (20:44):
So he's not bowing out buck Sexton two days ago.
He's period, not period bowing period out.
Speaker 2 (20:52):
Buck Sexton two days ago. I think that he's not
bowing out. I'm going to tell you this right now.
I understand that there's I understand that there's all the
us laughing at this.
Speaker 1 (21:02):
He's not hold up five days ago, Buck Sexton, he's
period not period dropping, period out period ever, I'm in
your Twitter account.
Speaker 2 (21:15):
No, I understand that those statements have been made. I
understand those statements have been made, and I would tell
everybody you're likea Pierre as we sit here. As we
sit here, I'm gonna have the team go back and
pull the tape because all the chatter he can't stay
in the race.
Speaker 1 (21:34):
End quote, here's the Democrat plot to replace him is
wasted energy.
Speaker 2 (21:40):
Yes, yes, okay, sorry, I'm just doing my research. You
continue on. You know, there's some there's some cheap fakes
coming from Clay right now. There's some cherry picking and
misinformation happening here. Because there are other things there on
the x account which I will find which tell everybody
that it is in fact going to be Biden or Harris.
(22:03):
But I will say this, I think he's still going
going to make it. Wait, just just sort of like anyway,
we don't want to spend this whole time, somebody breaking
news stories.
Speaker 1 (22:16):
By the way, it's almost impossible to know what is that.
The chaos inside of the Democrats right now is unlike
anything Buck, that I can remember from a major political
party that is self inflicted. It's not as if, you know,
somebody has suddenly created a brand new story that nobody
(22:38):
knew existed.
Speaker 2 (22:39):
We didn't just have a war start.
Speaker 1 (22:41):
They have tripped all over themselves to a degree that
I think, past the lives of anybody listening right now,
people will be citing this story in the same way
you know, Buck, they do. Hey, remember when television started
and Nixon won the debate for everybody listening on the
radio and Kennedy one for everybody watching, and it fundamentally
(23:02):
changed everything. And people still talk about that, even though
most of our listeners did not watch or listen to
that debate. I think, past the lives of those who
are listening today, people will be talking about this debate
in twenty twenty four as one of the all time
unbelievable American political experiences. So yes, and here's and we
still don't even know how unbelievable, because does it actually
(23:24):
result in a president? Remember it wouldn't just be choosing
not to run. And this is a key difference. Biden's
decision right now, isn't I'm going to pass the baton
for the campaign to someone else. That's obviously a part
of it. He's not finishing his term.
Speaker 2 (23:44):
Everybody he would, assuming that it is Harris, which I've
assumed all along that it would be if not Biden,
if he steps down, he's got to do it so
that rather, if he decides that he's not going to
try to make this happen, he wants Kamala Harris to
be the president running effectively as an will see, that's interesting.
(24:05):
So you think that I see, that's such.
Speaker 1 (24:07):
An embarrassment to me for Biden not to finish his
term that I think the consolation prize if he steps
down is it stepping.
Speaker 2 (24:16):
Down from running and he will serve out.
Speaker 1 (24:18):
I agree with you that he's not competent to be
able to do it, but I don't think he would
be willing to step out of the presidential role and
let her.
Speaker 2 (24:28):
To the point, here's the problem. Here's I mean, I
would I understand that that's that's that could be true,
But the problem is Clay, if he's not competent to
be the president in January, He's not competent to be
the president now, you're one hundred percent. That's why that
story doesn't go away. If he continues to be there
will be bills he will sign, there will be things
that are done, there will be executive orders, there'll be pardons.
(24:49):
That's for damn sure. So for him to do those
things between now and January, it's just indefensible. If he's
saying he can't run, because remember he's not saying I
can't run because you know, I made this decision for
my family for the better, you know, whatever. The reason
he's being forced out, he's being forced out would be
if this happens, that he doesn't have the mental faculties
(25:11):
to be president, and no one's going to buy you
have the mental faculties now, but you won't in January. Okay,
that's an absurd argument. So I think the problem for Biden, rather,
the reason that I think the Palace coup may fail
still is and you know they've decided to go for it.
I will say I'm a little surprised that they've because
(25:32):
remember Morning Joe the day after the debate, the day
after the debate, the decision from the apparatus was He's
still our guy. That was a rough night, He's still
our guy. Something has changed, there has been I don't
know if it's most of the polls, the donors, the
combination arehole and the donors. I think you had it.
So those things together have made it so that now
there's a real challenge to Biden. So now the system
(25:54):
isn't backing him up. But here's the thing. If you're
Joe Biden, and I think everyone can see that, Joe
Biden somebody who has thought about himself more than anything
else or anyone else his entire life. It's not about
service to the country. It's about Bidenism and what's best
for Bidenism. If you're Joe Biden, you only got a
few years left. Let's be honest. I mean, guys, maybe
maybe it's ten years, maybe, but he's only got a
few years left. Realistically, you're going to go out now
(26:16):
a sure loser. The only that you're going to give
up your shot to be a hero and to hand
the presidency. I'm thinking from the Biden perspective now like
I'm trying to be Joe Biden, which is pretty scary
your brain. Jeork's too well to be him. But yes,
this is Yes, this is an attempt. It was very nice.
He says. It works too well to you. Buzz Clay's
a very charitable guy. So if you were in that position,
(26:40):
they would have to and I think this is the
discussion that's going on now. They would have to entice
Biden to step down with promises of extremely good stuff.
They wouldn't make this open by the way. They wouldn't
be but I mean companies. Yes, Jill, Jill Well Biden
(27:00):
the president of a university somewhere making a million dollars
a year to wake up and do nothing. You know,
that's the only way you convince Joe Biden. You have
to induce him because otherwise he doesn't care. And people
keep saying, Oh, they're gonna, they're gonna what, he's the president.
They're not gonna do anything other than try to convince
(27:22):
him to make the decision.
Speaker 1 (27:24):
I think they can offer him millions of dollars, tens
of millions of dollars even to leave. I think those
conversations are going on right now. What I don't think
buck is I think Biden has too much pride to
leave before his term is out, and ultimately, I think
that becomes a huge albatross for Kamala Harris to your point,
because if you're not able to run, they'll try to say, Hey,
(27:47):
I recognize that it's reckless for me to try to
serve to eighty six. I have the ability to serve
until January of twenty twenty four, of twenty twenty five.
I'll do the best. I'll do this to the best
of my ability. Buck imagine the shots of him moving
his family possessions out of the White House so Kamala
Harris could move in. It would be such an admission
(28:10):
of failure that I don't think Joe Biden's pride would
allow him to do that. So part of the negotiation
is going to be I'm leaving period.
Speaker 2 (28:17):
You know, with you sir, throwing around your your your uh,
slanderous accusations of your tweets, you're you're you're reading, you're
reading of these tweets you know that are out of context.
I'm just gonna say out of context. And and there's
misinformation here, could be Russian disinformation Clay is reading, I
don't know, prove to me that it is not. Are
(28:40):
you now, are you now actually slyly joining on buck Island?
The little side island of it has to be Kamla.
There is no have you given up on Gavin and
all the rest of his talk?
Speaker 1 (28:50):
Wells, I think that Kamala is going to lose, and
I actually think the polling is going to be worse
for Kamala.
Speaker 2 (28:59):
So I'm I'm of two minds on so who's the nominee?
Speaker 1 (29:02):
That there are three people that I think could potentially
potentially beat Trump in the Democrat Party Michelle Obama, who
it appears is still putting out hey, I don't want
to do it. Josh Shapiro and Gretchen Whitmer. I'm not
saying that they can or even that they're likely. I
(29:23):
think every other Democrat, whether it's mayor Pete, Gavin Newsom,
Kamala Harris, they all lose.
Speaker 2 (29:30):
I mean, you know, you're your shuffle around on the
stage here, buddy, Who is going to be the Democrat nominee?
Speaker 1 (29:36):
The most likely one is Kamala right now. But I
still wonder. I still wonder whether the play is for
Biden to say I'm freeing all of my delegates. I'm
not endorsing anyone, and I'm gonna let the Democrats in
Chicago decide who the nominee is.
Speaker 2 (29:55):
Chaos is the enemy of the Democrats at this point
and would be what they are usually they love chaos,
especially on the streets, but they the disarray this would
cause and going into a broker convention. People don't understand.
There's no conversation that anyone is going to have in
the corridors of power in the Democrat Party that convince
(30:17):
all that there are different factions. Right. We've seen this
with like the whole Israel Palestine issue, for example, there
are different factions. You're gonna have people from all over
the Democrat Party who think that their guy or gal
should be the nominee. I mean, and you know this
is it's not like they're gonna walk in the convention like, oh,
we've all decided here's the perfect person. They're gonna have
(30:37):
a knockdown, drag out fight a month before early voting starts,
basically give or take you know, six weeks or something before.
He mean, dude, I just think they're gonna.
Speaker 1 (30:48):
Kamala can't win, all right, And I'm actually curious we
come back, like who would even take the VP role
for Kamala.
Speaker 2 (30:54):
Have you seen a single poll that shows anyone other
than Biden doing better than Biden against Trump from a
reputable polster, like a real pole. No.
Speaker 1 (31:05):
But the thing I would say in response to that
is nobody else has gotten to run hundreds of millions
of dollars in ads. The one thing I'll say is
they will raise hundreds of millions of dollars for whoever
the candidate is.
Speaker 2 (31:17):
But they're lighting all that on fire if they switched
the candidate. This is why, This is why I'm telling
you there's great deals on waterfront lots on Buck Island.
I'm telling you there's just going on. Why you're still
saying they're gonna stick with Biden. I mean, it's Biden
or it's Harris, which is what I've said all along.
It's I still think it's Biden. But I mean today,
(31:37):
I mean, that's a ballsy call. I'm not gonna lie.
That's that's that's that's I'm you know, I'm running down
the middle with no blockers on this one. I'm just
hoping to sort of make it through the mailstroam. We'll
see what happens. The CEO of a publicly traded company
is some of that I know. Well, his name's Porter Stansbury,
and here's what he decided to do. Take his salary
(31:58):
and bring it down to a dollar a year. He's
doing this because he thinks it makes a lot of sense.
And he's also making a bigger point one that he
wants you to know about. Why would he pay himself
a dollar a year? Well, Porter's found a better way
to compensate himself. He sees a new form of money
in America, one that's making some people very rich. You
don't need to be a CEO to obtain this kind
(32:18):
of compensation. Thousands of Americans in a wide variety of
full time roles have already started to be compensated in
this new form and that's documented in detailed in a
video Porter is sharing with us online. Porter's hoping to change,
and that it's hoping to change for the American people
their understanding of this critical way to get paid. Check
(32:40):
out Porter's latest detailed presentation online. It's secret Currency twenty
twenty four dot com. You won't see this opportunity discussed
anywhere else. Go to Secret Currency twenty twenty four dot com.
We've got a lot a lot of calls, a lot
(33:01):
of emails, a lot of stuff going on here. Let's
see what we've got. Uh look, I'll just jump right
into it. We've got Tim in California. Tim in California
is not a resident of Buck Island. Apparently, what's up, Tim?
Speaker 4 (33:16):
No, I am not a resident.
Speaker 2 (33:17):
You know.
Speaker 4 (33:18):
I love the show, love you guys, but I gotta
tell you, Buck, I got to call out bs on
on your waffling waffle waffle waffle Bucks. First of all,
I've always wanted to call the Trey Clavison Buck and
the Tray Clavis and Sex Buckton show. And here I am,
and I.
Speaker 2 (33:32):
Think it was to be hold on.
Speaker 1 (33:33):
To be fair, I believe it was the gay Travis
and Cuck Sexton show according to to one of our emails. Yes,
I was gay Travis and he was cuck Sexton according
to one of our emailers.
Speaker 2 (33:44):
So I appreciate you calling in. I remember that one.
Speaker 4 (33:47):
But I called the Tray Clavis and Sex Bucks and
that's okay.
Speaker 2 (33:51):
So these are these are this is the quality of
the analysis on Clay Island. There.
Speaker 1 (33:58):
You got a VIP something by the way, VIP email
from Tony. He says, he wants three acres and a
doc on Buck Island. So there are still some believers
out there that will buy into Uh.
Speaker 2 (34:09):
Can I just say I haven't waffled right now? I
mean I am. I am in the bunker and and
you know, the the bombs are falling all around me,
and I'm like, We're still going to win this thing. Okay.
You know, I don't know what I don't know what
anyone's talking about waffling. I'm the opposite of waffling. Great
great vip emails.
Speaker 1 (34:27):
Continuing to weigh in, Mark says Buck has a revisionist memory. Clay,
we all know the bet was over whether Biden would
be the candidate. I have my own messages saved. This
or Harris thing is something new on the Gulf coast.
We call this crawfishing out of a bet. Thanks by
Mark smart Man. Michael says this is very funny, wondering
(34:48):
if Buck has considered the likelihood of Buck Island capsizing
from Buck's sudden and massive shift in position to the
other side.
Speaker 2 (34:58):
This is nonsense, he said.
Speaker 1 (35:00):
Ron He's still on Buck Island, but the storm surge
from the ongoing storm is opening up other possibilities.
Speaker 2 (35:09):
Ron is riding. I'm with Buckets too late. Biden is
the horse They rode in on a broken down old
mag that it is the horse. But Jeff writes, I'm
thinking about pulling my passport for buck Island. But Clay
the only way, he remembers, the only way you win
the bed is if Michelle is at the top of
the ticket. This is Jeff. Some people remember what has
(35:29):
been said on this.
Speaker 1 (35:31):
By the way, some people are just totally off all
Islands with their email. Buck Did you see this? Jc
wrote in I've listened to you for quite a while.
You both have so much going for yourselves and do
a great job. However, and I can't believe this is real.
This just came in. However, the many negative all caps
comments you both have made about cats and about cat
(35:54):
ladies has caused me to decide to stop listening to
your show.
Speaker 2 (36:00):
Have we really been anti cat? Oh? Hold on, hold on?
What is going on here? This is like Zach Morris.
I got to call a time out here. Clay is
a cat owner producer, Ali is a cat owner and
loves her cats.
Speaker 5 (36:14):
And I've never said anything about cats. Who's talking badly
about sets? You both are decent men, and I wish
you and every member of your family's the best things
in life in every way. But your anti cat negativity
has led her to say she can no longer listen
to this. This is Russian disinformation from the internet.
Speaker 1 (36:32):
We're not anti cat on this show ever, ever saying
anything about cat ladies. I Well, to be fair, I
don't really like the two cats that I have, but
that doesn't mean that your cats out there aren't lovely.
Speaker 2 (36:42):
Did you have to throw that in at the end?
We almost managed the break, like Biden knows, I know. Oh,
Welcome to today's edition of the Clay, Travis and Buck
Sexton Show podcast. Oh my goodness, I have no idea
what might happen during the course of today's show, but
one request right off the top. Can we add audio
of a nice sizzling steak that I can call for
at any points time? Because the longest running bet of
(00:25):
the Clay and Buck Show history is about to pay
off a five. I'm going to dive into this the
greatest steak, as Trump might call it, that has ever
been cooked, and I'm not doing a medium well unlike
President Trump. Buck, I'll give you an open right off
the top. Here are you remaining? The public demands to know,
(00:51):
is Buck Island still flying the Biden flag high? Or
would you hear on the eve of our two hundred
and forty eighth in Dependence Day like to join so
many others in fleeing your island on whatever possible flotation
device might still be available on the island.
Speaker 2 (01:11):
I just want to make it very clear to everybody.
First of all, people are getting a little high falutin
right now at a little other high horses about how
oh looke Biden. No, No, do not celebrate early, do
not think that this is over yet. It might be
over the course of the show, and then we'll just
have to edit this out from the podcast at least.
But I have been very clear, that's all like Obama,
(01:33):
let me be clear. I have been very clear. It
is Biden or Harris. That has always been my position.
You're right, all right, this is I'm just gonna tell
Go to the transcript, everybody, go to the tape, Go
to my x feed or Twitter feed. Go see. I've
always said Bidener Harris. It is the Gavin Newsom, Michelle Obama, Whitmer,
et cetera talk that I have been very dismissive of. Now,
(01:57):
if forced into a corner I have, it would still
be Biden over Kamala. Under the circumstances. That component of
my analysis is not feeling so warm and fuzzy today. However,
the bet, my friend is Gav is third option versus Biden. Harris.
(02:18):
I just want clarity. No, no, no, no, it's Biden.
It's Biden or no Biden.
Speaker 1 (02:25):
I appreciate your Karjian Pierre Ministry of Disinformation spin here.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
It is Biden. Go back. There's a transcript, folks, there's audio.
This doesn't have to be, you know, based on recollection,
and we're gonna go back and pull some of this.
Speaker 1 (02:40):
I've been very this is this is unbelievab Okay, so
a couple of things. I we were just talking about
this off air. Tomorrow is July fourth. I would have
usually this is you you would agree, I think, Buck,
one of the deadest days on the entire American calendar.
People are traveling, everybody's out of work. I mean, if
(03:03):
you put on Fox News at just about every host
is out this week and we're talking about, hey, we
may have to call in on July fourth, Yeah, because
it's possible news could break, or July fifth, which would
usually be a quiet day as well, that Biden is out,
(03:23):
and the way I would describe it, and I'm curious
if you would agree with me, Buck is First of all,
the absolute latest. The New York Times reported in the
last hour that Biden has had conversations with close out
with at least one close ally about dropping out of
the race. That is the latest news story that is
(03:45):
out there. He is, according to this story, this source.
I mean, let's really get into this for a second.
First of all, we may have an answer while we're
on the air, So you have to listen to us
today for all three hours. I know you're probably a
lot of you on the road, which is great because
then we'll entertain you while you're drying to your Independence
Day weekend celebration with family or whatever. But Clay, they
(04:07):
we'll get down into this. We may know the answer today.
They have reported that a close aid to Biden has
said that Biden is considering the possibility that he cannot
continue on because basically, after the debate he can't win.
There have been people in the Biden orbit, you know,
spokespersons the White House, who have said that report is
(04:27):
categorically false, which which is amazing what you would say
if you were still dependent on Biden for your job
and the the bowing out was not official yet. But
there is the Palace coup is the The effort is underway.
I will admit that there is an effort to push
Joe Biden aside. It's just a question of Kenny hang on.
(04:50):
Here's the headline right now, top of the New York Times.
Biden told ally that he is weighing whether to continue
in the race. Is the headline. Sub headline, The President's
conversation is the first indication he is seriously considering whether
he can recover after a devastating performance on the debate
(05:11):
stage in Atlanta on Thursday. That story went live and
was updated about forty five minutes ago, according to The
New York Times. Okay, interesting aspect of this. Things are
so much in an uproar that the Biden team, as
you just pointed out, is now saying that the New
(05:32):
York Times is fake news. Think about how crazy things
have gotten in the Democrat camp that Joe Biden's chief
advisor is saying that this is completely untrue. Here's Andrew Bates,
White House spokesman said the claim was absolutely false and
the White House had not been given enough time to respond.
(05:53):
I don't even know what that means, not enough time
to respond. The way that I read that book is
usually the White House is able to keep the New
York Times from writing stories they don't like. They get
on the phone with them, they scream at them, to
yell at them, and then the New York Times backs
up and says, Okay, we're not gonna run this here.
They went ahead and just ran it, and now we
(06:16):
have a situation where Joe Biden himself is saying that
The New York Times is fake news. That's how much
things have turned into an uproar. And by the way,
minute to minute, we're in this situation where anything could happen.
It would not stun me if I go on Twitter
and hit refresh if there is a breaking news story. Hey,
(06:37):
Biden hasn't decided to withdraw.
Speaker 2 (06:39):
It is July third, as we all know, and usually
and Clay and I have both been doing media now
for you know, over a decade in Clay's case several decades,
is much older than me, and and usually at this
case we'd be talking about like, hey, like what are
you which is fun by Hey, what are your Fourth
of July? I know it's Independence weekend, but you know
we all use the shorthand fourth of July plans. What
(07:02):
are you going to be barbecuing? And we might talk
about some of that in the third hour. But there
is a very serious possibility that today may be the
biggest day of political news so far this entire year. Yeah,
the most earth, I mean, bigger than the Trump verdict,
bigger than bigger than anything, bigger than Trump winning Iowa.
This could be the single biggest day in politics of
(07:24):
the entire year so far and maybe of the entire
presidential cycle when all said and done, So we really
mean it, you need to stick around with us.
Speaker 1 (07:31):
I mean, Buck, I think you could make an argument
that it could be the biggest day of presidential news
since nineteen sixty eight when LBJ said he wouldn't run,
Because I mean again, I correct me if I'm wrong,
and we'll put the crew on this. I don't think
we've ever had an incumbent president choose not to run
in the midst of an election year since LBJ in
(07:55):
sixty eight. So for many of you that are out
there listening to us, including Buck and me, uh, there
isn't a historical analogy that we have been alive for
when something like this would have occurred.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
And I'll tell you I was no surprise watching MSNBC
all morning and I'm telling you they're they're doubling up
on the early and their position. Yeah, Like I mean,
are they still defending Biden from your MSNBC viewing or
how would you assess the overall total? I mean, I
I really and you can tell by the guests they
(08:28):
have on and every they are solidly fence sitting right now.
Oh that's great. They're solidly noncommittal. They want to see
who's going to win this power struggle there, which is
interesting because remember they went full back Dad Bob right
after the bait. They were they were doing the whole
and right now they're going, ooh, let's sort of see
how this one shakes out. It's by the way, it's so,
(08:50):
it's so great to watch, it's so much fun.
Speaker 1 (08:52):
Tell so this is one of the great lines from
Old Country guys. Turtle doesn't get on a fence by
an accident. So right now MSNBC is the turtle on
the fence. They are intentionally staying right there. They ain't
going one direction or the other. They are right there
on top of the fence. And I I wonder how
(09:16):
we you know, way, we never got a reckoning for COVID.
Nobody's ever come out and said, hey, I was wrong,
We blew this. I was having this conversation with my
wife this morning, and I said, this might be the
story that causes the left wing New York Times Washington
Post to actually be so humiliated, because I think that's
(09:37):
what's going on right now. They have been humiliated by
the degree to which the left, the Biden administration was
demanding that they lie their own intelligence has been called
into question, and they've asked them to.
Speaker 2 (09:50):
Do too much.
Speaker 1 (09:51):
Now they'll still show up and say, Kamala Harris is
the modern day Nelson Mandela. If she's the nominee, Kamala
Harris is what Martin Luther King would have been if
he were still live today, right, Like, I mean, all
these puff pieces are coming. They'll try to turn Kamala
Harris into the greatest hero of modern American history. But
the Joe Biden's a good guy Joe Biden, it's cheap fakes.
(10:14):
The idea that he wasn't on top of his game
at D Day or the G seven or at Juneteenth.
Now when I read it and the New York Times
released a devastating column, sorry, reporting on Biden's frailty and
mental and physical deficiencies, and they cited all of the
stories that you and I have been talking about on
(10:34):
this show for months. One of my buddies, who's a
Biden voter, sent me that article and he was like, wow,
did you know about all this? He's busy, And I
was like, yes, yeah, people really trust the New York
Times to let them know what is going on. And
I think if you're super busy, there are still lots
of people who are just allowing that to be their source.
Speaker 2 (10:54):
Clay. There are people, many of them, who's only is
to tell the American people the truth about what is
going on inside the White House and specifically with the
President himself of the United States. There are every major
news organization has people that are assigned to that. You
(11:18):
know the joke you had one job. You know, the line,
you had one job, they had one job. And what
we realize, or rather what we see. I think we've
known this all along, but some people are coming to
this realization is that the job is actually to protect
Democrat interests. The job is not to report. And Charles
(11:39):
cook over at National Review, you probably saw this tweets
going viral, but I think this really nails it. Charles Wrights.
If you're looking for a broader takeaway from all this,
take how the press covered up Biden's infirmity because it
wanted to protect the Democrats and apply it to literally
every single thing that it does on any topic, in
any year, in any circumstance forever. That's what he says
(12:04):
the truth of the media. Charles nails it here. This
is that is their job. The people that think that
they failed by not reporting on Biden don't understand their
job is not to report the truth. Their job is
to help Democrat power and Democrat interests.
Speaker 1 (12:21):
On another part of that, I read this and I
laughed and I shared it Beckett Adam's Twitter account. Pulitzer
Prize winning newsrooms and pundits with six figure salaries all
missed the deterioration of Joe Biden's cognitive abilities, while accounts
with handles such as Patriot Moms seventeen seventy six and
Real Eagle Underscore Freedom have been pointing it out for
(12:44):
about five years. But that really kind of goes at
the essence in a funny way of what exactly we
have seen, and the fact that if you pointed it
out NBC News ten days ago, Buck accuse me of
being a chief purveyor of disinformation for sharing an actual
video Biden.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
Not being able to do his job. Yeah, the whole
phrase cheap fakes. You're not gonna hear a lot about
that anymore because those were all obviously real. I would
just want everyone to make sure though, that we frame
our thinking on this accurately. It is not that they
failed to notice this. Like Clay, you mentioned you have
a friend, yeah, who somehow didn't know. But anyway, whatever,
(13:22):
he trusted the news. Fine, people can trust the news.
That's on them. They got other lives, other things they're doing.
But for the people who work in the media, they
didn't miss this. This is like the fifty one intelligence
officers with the Hunter Biden laptop. They weren't fooled. They
lied to you. They lied. This was intentional, this was knowing.
This was willful. It was a top to bottom campaign
(13:46):
of dare I say misinformation about Joe Biden's age, frailty,
mental acuity, cognition, and they expect us to just get that.
And even people over at CNN I don't even want
to have to go through to name the names like, oh,
like look what we've discovered. No, you were part of
(14:07):
the fraud. You were part of the can the whole time.
You don't get to be the Oh, I'm a speaking truth,
I'm a journalist. I'm honest. Now, No, you went along
with this the whole time, and now the whole thing's
blown up in their faces and we'll see. I believe
there's a phone call which is gonna be happening within minutes, right,
I think it's scheduled. Is it's still scheduled for there's
a White House phone call on the schedule today, there's
(14:30):
like an all hands call, and then there's a Biden
Kamala lunch. You've seen that too. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (14:35):
Then they've got the governors in tonight, right, the governor
Democrat governors are all there.
Speaker 2 (14:40):
And I'm gonna tell you something right now, I have
a prediction for all of you about what's gonna happen.
I think I can see this pretty clearly. Clay, you're
gonna have to bring us back. Then.
Speaker 1 (14:50):
I want everybody to think I'm kind of blown away here.
Who do you trust more? The Biden administration or the
New York Times? Oh, this is a actually start feuding
with each other. I think it's actually a very hard
thing to try to figure out to get your heads
around that this could actually be happening.
Speaker 2 (15:07):
All right, let's dive right in here.
Speaker 1 (15:09):
If you need some energy, need some vitality, need some
vigor in your life, and you don't want to feel
like Joe Biden, you need to get hooked up with
our friends at CHALK. I'm not saying that if Biden
had slammed a Chalk chad mode right before he went
out for the debate, that he would have been extraordinary.
I am saying he probably would have not been talking
about falling asleep, which is what he was saying that
(15:31):
he almost did during the debate in the latest version
of why he didn't do well. He was tired, he
didn't have energy. He's admitting what everybody already knows. And
all of this is absolutely chaotic, insane, makes absolutely no sense.
Speaker 2 (15:46):
But that's where we are.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
If you want to have some energy in your life,
if you want to be able to actually not look
like Joe Biden when he is out on the debate stage,
you need to get hooked up right now with Chalk.
One easy thing to do. You can use my name Clay,
go to choq dot com if you want to go
on the website. Best deal on subscription out there. But
also if you would rather make a telephone call, you
(16:11):
can call five zero Chalk three thousand, say Clay and
Buck sent me. That's five zero CCHOQ three thousand US
based customer service team will be ready for you again.
You can go to Chalk dot com choq dot com.
You can use my name Clay. You can call fifty
Chalk three thousand, five zero CCHOQ three thousand Get hooked
(16:35):
up with energy today. Don't look like Biden on the
debate s date.
Speaker 3 (16:46):
Tense important news day today as the palace coup inside
the White House is certainly underway to push Joe Biden aside.
Speaker 2 (16:58):
But will it work? Will it be successful? That is
what we're going to be bringing you updates minute by
minute during the show today, because I'm gonna say this, Clay.
First of all, I think Joe Biden makes it through
the Independence Day weekend still has the nominee. I was
gonna say it.
Speaker 1 (17:15):
I think, do you think he breaks that he's gonna withdraw,
or do you think he's still like there's still no
public like he's out story all the way through Independence
to Day weekend.
Speaker 2 (17:25):
I think he's still. I think we wake up Monday
and he's still the nominee. That's what I think will happen.
But I also do believe that for the first time,
they're trying to induce him to step aside, which we
should talk about this. I do think that there are
powerful people who are like you gotta go.
Speaker 1 (17:43):
Ah, So this sounds like you are trying to leave
Buck Island to.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
Me, What do you mean? I think I think Trump.
I just said Biden's gonna I think Trump. I think
Biden's gonna be the nominee. Still that's not that's on
the island. Oh wait, wait, you're still not even on Monday.
You're saying he's gonna be there on November. Oh yeah,
we gotta connect. Yeah, I think he's still staying. Baby,
I don't think he's going. We'll talk about this. Save
yourself as much as one thousand dollars a year, folks,
(18:08):
when you switch your cell phone service to Pure Talk.
You see how expensive barbecue is going to be this weekend.
Thanks Biden. We want to save you money. So does
Puretalk their plans start. That's just twenty dollars a month fro,
unlimited talk, text, and plenty of high speed data, no
contract assigned to keep your same phone and number. Join
the droves of people making the switch. In fact, Pure
Talk experience a surge of sign ups in June because
(18:30):
of the charity that they are affiliated with that helps
veterans America's Warrior Partnership, so you can do great stuff
with the money that you were spending with your cell
phone company. When you switch to pure Talk and get
the best possible prices and service, all you have to
do is dial pound two five zero. Say the keywords
Clay and Buck. You'll be connected to Pure Talk's customer
service team. That's Pound two five zero from your phone,
(18:53):
Say Clay and Buck.
Speaker 1 (19:01):
Okay. As we went to break, I have to tell
you Buck Island seemed like it was about to be uninhabitable.
Maybe one of those islands that they decided they were
gonna test nukes around and everybody had to relocate because
it was no longer safe to be there.
Speaker 2 (19:20):
Buck Island as a nuclear wasteland, already closed.
Speaker 1 (19:22):
Some of those islands are beautiful in the off the
coast of Puerto Rico. You know they glow the dark
at night too. Yes, yeah, well that's the downside, but
they're they're easy to find. So you said, you think
he'll still be there on Monday. Yeah, this is what
Buck Island is down to. We think we have enough
(19:42):
coconuts to make it till Monday. We've got there's enough water.
We're hoping it's gonna rain. You are committed to November fifth,
or you're committed to Monday right now on buck Island.
Speaker 2 (19:54):
I again, we're gonna have to go back to the transcript.
So every it's very clear. I have said all along
it is by Harris. When there was all this Michelle
Obama talk which we all remember people calling in for
the last twelve months about oh, it's going to be
Michelle Obama, I said no, no, no, they said Gavin Newsom.
I said no, no, no, it's going to be Biden
or Harris. And that is the foundation of a stake.
(20:16):
Bet we will go back, we will check the transcript
on this one. How I can't believe you are waffling
like this.
Speaker 1 (20:22):
I'm going to your own Twitter account to do my
own research here because I seem to remember a recent
tweet that said it's going to be Biden everyone else
is a moron?
Speaker 2 (20:31):
Am I am? I wrong said that. I didn't say that.
That's not fair. I said that other talk that might
be rough, a rough version. That's a little harsh. That
made by characterization.
Speaker 1 (20:44):
So he's not bowing out buck Sexton two days ago.
He's period, not period bowing period out.
Speaker 2 (20:52):
Buck Sexton two days ago. I think that he's not
bowing out. I'm going to tell you this right now.
I understand that there's I understand that there's all the
us laughing at this.
Speaker 1 (21:02):
He's not hold up five days ago, Buck Sexton, he's
period not period dropping, period out period ever, I'm in
your Twitter account.
Speaker 2 (21:15):
No, I understand that those statements have been made. I
understand those statements have been made, and I would tell
everybody you're likea Pierre as we sit here. As we
sit here, I'm gonna have the team go back and
pull the tape because all the chatter he can't stay
in the race.
Speaker 1 (21:34):
End quote, here's the Democrat plot to replace him is
wasted energy.
Speaker 2 (21:40):
Yes, yes, okay, sorry, I'm just doing my research. You
continue on. You know, there's some there's some cheap fakes
coming from Clay right now. There's some cherry picking and
misinformation happening here. Because there are other things there on
the x account which I will find which tell everybody
that it is in fact going to be Biden or Harris.
(22:03):
But I will say this, I think he's still going
going to make it. Wait, just just sort of like anyway,
we don't want to spend this whole time, somebody breaking
news stories.
Speaker 1 (22:16):
By the way, it's almost impossible to know what is that.
The chaos inside of the Democrats right now is unlike
anything Buck, that I can remember from a major political
party that is self inflicted. It's not as if, you know,
somebody has suddenly created a brand new story that nobody
(22:38):
knew existed.
Speaker 2 (22:39):
We didn't just have a war start.
Speaker 1 (22:41):
They have tripped all over themselves to a degree that
I think, past the lives of anybody listening right now,
people will be citing this story in the same way
you know, Buck, they do. Hey, remember when television started
and Nixon won the debate for everybody listening on the
radio and Kennedy one for everybody watching, and it fundamentally
(23:02):
changed everything. And people still talk about that, even though
most of our listeners did not watch or listen to
that debate. I think, past the lives of those who
are listening today, people will be talking about this debate
in twenty twenty four as one of the all time
unbelievable American political experiences. So yes, and here's and we
still don't even know how unbelievable, because does it actually
(23:24):
result in a president? Remember it wouldn't just be choosing
not to run. And this is a key difference. Biden's
decision right now, isn't I'm going to pass the baton
for the campaign to someone else. That's obviously a part
of it. He's not finishing his term.
Speaker 2 (23:44):
Everybody he would, assuming that it is Harris, which I've
assumed all along that it would be if not Biden,
if he steps down, he's got to do it so
that rather, if he decides that he's not going to
try to make this happen, he wants Kamala Harris to
be the president running effectively as an will see, that's interesting.
(24:05):
So you think that I see, that's such.
Speaker 1 (24:07):
An embarrassment to me for Biden not to finish his
term that I think the consolation prize if he steps
down is it stepping.
Speaker 2 (24:16):
Down from running and he will serve out.
Speaker 1 (24:18):
I agree with you that he's not competent to be
able to do it, but I don't think he would
be willing to step out of the presidential role and
let her.
Speaker 2 (24:28):
To the point, here's the problem. Here's I mean, I
would I understand that that's that's that could be true,
But the problem is Clay, if he's not competent to
be the president in January, He's not competent to be
the president now, you're one hundred percent. That's why that
story doesn't go away. If he continues to be there
will be bills he will sign, there will be things
that are done, there will be executive orders, there'll be pardons.
(24:49):
That's for damn sure. So for him to do those
things between now and January, it's just indefensible. If he's
saying he can't run, because remember he's not saying I
can't run because you know, I made this decision for
my family for the better, you know, whatever. The reason
he's being forced out, he's being forced out would be
if this happens, that he doesn't have the mental faculties
(25:11):
to be president, and no one's going to buy you
have the mental faculties now, but you won't in January. Okay,
that's an absurd argument. So I think the problem for Biden, rather,
the reason that I think the Palace coup may fail
still is and you know they've decided to go for it.
I will say I'm a little surprised that they've because
(25:32):
remember Morning Joe the day after the debate, the day
after the debate, the decision from the apparatus was He's
still our guy. That was a rough night, He's still
our guy. Something has changed, there has been I don't
know if it's most of the polls, the donors, the
combination arehole and the donors. I think you had it.
So those things together have made it so that now
there's a real challenge to Biden. So now the system
(25:54):
isn't backing him up. But here's the thing. If you're
Joe Biden, and I think everyone can see that, Joe
Biden somebody who has thought about himself more than anything
else or anyone else his entire life. It's not about
service to the country. It's about Bidenism and what's best
for Bidenism. If you're Joe Biden, you only got a
few years left. Let's be honest. I mean, guys, maybe
maybe it's ten years, maybe, but he's only got a
few years left. Realistically, you're going to go out now
(26:16):
a sure loser. The only that you're going to give
up your shot to be a hero and to hand
the presidency. I'm thinking from the Biden perspective now like
I'm trying to be Joe Biden, which is pretty scary
your brain. Jeork's too well to be him. But yes,
this is Yes, this is an attempt. It was very nice.
He says. It works too well to you. Buzz Clay's
a very charitable guy. So if you were in that position,
(26:40):
they would have to and I think this is the
discussion that's going on now. They would have to entice
Biden to step down with promises of extremely good stuff.
They wouldn't make this open by the way. They wouldn't
be but I mean companies. Yes, Jill, Jill Well Biden
(27:00):
the president of a university somewhere making a million dollars
a year to wake up and do nothing. You know,
that's the only way you convince Joe Biden. You have
to induce him because otherwise he doesn't care. And people
keep saying, Oh, they're gonna, they're gonna what, he's the president.
They're not gonna do anything other than try to convince
(27:22):
him to make the decision.
Speaker 1 (27:24):
I think they can offer him millions of dollars, tens
of millions of dollars even to leave. I think those
conversations are going on right now. What I don't think
buck is I think Biden has too much pride to
leave before his term is out, and ultimately, I think
that becomes a huge albatross for Kamala Harris to your point,
because if you're not able to run, they'll try to say, Hey,
(27:47):
I recognize that it's reckless for me to try to
serve to eighty six. I have the ability to serve
until January of twenty twenty four, of twenty twenty five.
I'll do the best. I'll do this to the best
of my ability. Buck imagine the shots of him moving
his family possessions out of the White House so Kamala
Harris could move in. It would be such an admission
(28:10):
of failure that I don't think Joe Biden's pride would
allow him to do that. So part of the negotiation
is going to be I'm leaving period.
Speaker 2 (28:17):
You know, with you sir, throwing around your your your uh,
slanderous accusations of your tweets, you're you're you're reading, you're
reading of these tweets you know that are out of context.
I'm just gonna say out of context. And and there's
misinformation here, could be Russian disinformation Clay is reading, I
don't know, prove to me that it is not. Are
(28:40):
you now, are you now actually slyly joining on buck Island?
The little side island of it has to be Kamla.
There is no have you given up on Gavin and
all the rest of his talk?
Speaker 1 (28:50):
Wells, I think that Kamala is going to lose, and
I actually think the polling is going to be worse
for Kamala.
Speaker 2 (28:59):
So I'm I'm of two minds on so who's the nominee?
Speaker 1 (29:02):
That there are three people that I think could potentially
potentially beat Trump in the Democrat Party Michelle Obama, who
it appears is still putting out hey, I don't want
to do it. Josh Shapiro and Gretchen Whitmer. I'm not
saying that they can or even that they're likely. I
(29:23):
think every other Democrat, whether it's mayor Pete, Gavin Newsom,
Kamala Harris, they all lose.
Speaker 2 (29:30):
I mean, you know, you're your shuffle around on the
stage here, buddy, Who is going to be the Democrat nominee?
Speaker 1 (29:36):
The most likely one is Kamala right now. But I
still wonder. I still wonder whether the play is for
Biden to say I'm freeing all of my delegates. I'm
not endorsing anyone, and I'm gonna let the Democrats in
Chicago decide who the nominee is.
Speaker 2 (29:55):
Chaos is the enemy of the Democrats at this point
and would be what they are usually they love chaos,
especially on the streets, but they the disarray this would
cause and going into a broker convention. People don't understand.
There's no conversation that anyone is going to have in
the corridors of power in the Democrat Party that convince
(30:17):
all that there are different factions. Right. We've seen this
with like the whole Israel Palestine issue, for example, there
are different factions. You're gonna have people from all over
the Democrat Party who think that their guy or gal
should be the nominee. I mean, and you know this
is it's not like they're gonna walk in the convention like, oh,
we've all decided here's the perfect person. They're gonna have
(30:37):
a knockdown, drag out fight a month before early voting starts,
basically give or take you know, six weeks or something before.
He mean, dude, I just think they're gonna.
Speaker 1 (30:48):
Kamala can't win, all right, And I'm actually curious we
come back, like who would even take the VP role
for Kamala.
Speaker 2 (30:54):
Have you seen a single poll that shows anyone other
than Biden doing better than Biden against Trump from a
reputable polster, like a real pole. No.
Speaker 1 (31:05):
But the thing I would say in response to that
is nobody else has gotten to run hundreds of millions
of dollars in ads. The one thing I'll say is
they will raise hundreds of millions of dollars for whoever
the candidate is.
Speaker 2 (31:17):
But they're lighting all that on fire if they switched
the candidate. This is why, This is why I'm telling
you there's great deals on waterfront lots on Buck Island.
I'm telling you there's just going on. Why you're still
saying they're gonna stick with Biden. I mean, it's Biden
or it's Harris, which is what I've said all along.
It's I still think it's Biden. But I mean today,
(31:37):
I mean, that's a ballsy call. I'm not gonna lie.
That's that's that's that's I'm you know, I'm running down
the middle with no blockers on this one. I'm just
hoping to sort of make it through the mailstroam. We'll
see what happens. The CEO of a publicly traded company
is some of that I know. Well, his name's Porter Stansbury,
and here's what he decided to do. Take his salary
(31:58):
and bring it down to a dollar a year. He's
doing this because he thinks it makes a lot of sense.
And he's also making a bigger point one that he
wants you to know about. Why would he pay himself
a dollar a year? Well, Porter's found a better way
to compensate himself. He sees a new form of money
in America, one that's making some people very rich. You
don't need to be a CEO to obtain this kind
(32:18):
of compensation. Thousands of Americans in a wide variety of
full time roles have already started to be compensated in
this new form and that's documented in detailed in a
video Porter is sharing with us online. Porter's hoping to change,
and that it's hoping to change for the American people
their understanding of this critical way to get paid. Check
(32:40):
out Porter's latest detailed presentation online. It's secret Currency twenty
twenty four dot com. You won't see this opportunity discussed
anywhere else. Go to Secret Currency twenty twenty four dot com.
We've got a lot a lot of calls, a lot
(33:01):
of emails, a lot of stuff going on here. Let's
see what we've got. Uh look, I'll just jump right
into it. We've got Tim in California. Tim in California
is not a resident of Buck Island. Apparently, what's up, Tim?
Speaker 4 (33:16):
No, I am not a resident.
Speaker 2 (33:17):
You know.
Speaker 4 (33:18):
I love the show, love you guys, but I gotta
tell you, Buck, I got to call out bs on
on your waffling waffle waffle waffle Bucks. First of all,
I've always wanted to call the Trey Clavison Buck and
the Tray Clavis and Sex Buckton show. And here I am,
and I.
Speaker 2 (33:32):
Think it was to be hold on.
Speaker 1 (33:33):
To be fair, I believe it was the gay Travis
and Cuck Sexton show according to to one of our emails. Yes,
I was gay Travis and he was cuck Sexton according
to one of our emailers.
Speaker 2 (33:44):
So I appreciate you calling in. I remember that one.
Speaker 4 (33:47):
But I called the Tray Clavis and Sex Bucks and
that's okay.
Speaker 2 (33:51):
So these are these are this is the quality of
the analysis on Clay Island. There.
Speaker 1 (33:58):
You got a VIP something by the way, VIP email
from Tony. He says, he wants three acres and a
doc on Buck Island. So there are still some believers
out there that will buy into Uh.
Speaker 2 (34:09):
Can I just say I haven't waffled right now? I
mean I am. I am in the bunker and and
you know, the the bombs are falling all around me,
and I'm like, We're still going to win this thing. Okay.
You know, I don't know what I don't know what
anyone's talking about waffling. I'm the opposite of waffling. Great
great vip emails.
Speaker 1 (34:27):
Continuing to weigh in, Mark says Buck has a revisionist memory. Clay,
we all know the bet was over whether Biden would
be the candidate. I have my own messages saved. This
or Harris thing is something new on the Gulf coast.
We call this crawfishing out of a bet. Thanks by
Mark smart Man. Michael says this is very funny, wondering
(34:48):
if Buck has considered the likelihood of Buck Island capsizing
from Buck's sudden and massive shift in position to the
other side.
Speaker 2 (34:58):
This is nonsense, he said.
Speaker 1 (35:00):
Ron He's still on Buck Island, but the storm surge
from the ongoing storm is opening up other possibilities.
Speaker 2 (35:09):
Ron is riding. I'm with Buckets too late. Biden is
the horse They rode in on a broken down old
mag that it is the horse. But Jeff writes, I'm
thinking about pulling my passport for buck Island. But Clay
the only way, he remembers, the only way you win
the bed is if Michelle is at the top of
the ticket. This is Jeff. Some people remember what has
(35:29):
been said on this.
Speaker 1 (35:31):
By the way, some people are just totally off all
Islands with their email. Buck Did you see this? Jc
wrote in I've listened to you for quite a while.
You both have so much going for yourselves and do
a great job. However, and I can't believe this is real.
This just came in. However, the many negative all caps
comments you both have made about cats and about cat
(35:54):
ladies has caused me to decide to stop listening to
your show.
Speaker 2 (36:00):
Have we really been anti cat? Oh? Hold on, hold on?
What is going on here? This is like Zach Morris.
I got to call a time out here. Clay is
a cat owner producer, Ali is a cat owner and
loves her cats.
Speaker 5 (36:14):
And I've never said anything about cats. Who's talking badly
about sets? You both are decent men, and I wish
you and every member of your family's the best things
in life in every way. But your anti cat negativity
has led her to say she can no longer listen
to this. This is Russian disinformation from the internet.
Speaker 1 (36:32):
We're not anti cat on this show ever, ever saying
anything about cat ladies. I Well, to be fair, I
don't really like the two cats that I have, but
that doesn't mean that your cats out there aren't lovely.
Speaker 2 (36:42):
Did you have to throw that in at the end?
We almost managed the break, like Biden knows, I know. Oh,
