1
00:00:01,411 --> 00:00:03,380
Does anyone... does anyone
celebrate Elon Musk here?
2
00:00:03,480 --> 00:00:05,282
Anyone?
3
00:00:05,382 --> 00:00:07,017
Uh, I don't know
if you saw this.
4
00:00:07,117 --> 00:00:08,485
It was, like,
a really interesting moment
5
00:00:08,585 --> 00:00:10,320
of, like, just
Internet Twitter beef.
6
00:00:10,420 --> 00:00:11,788
Bernie Sanders put out a tweet,
7
00:00:11,888 --> 00:00:13,423
and he basically was, like,
you know, the usual thing.
8
00:00:13,523 --> 00:00:15,592
Billionaires need to pay
their fair share of taxes,
9
00:00:15,692 --> 00:00:17,360
blah, blah, blah, they're
not paying enough, whatever.
10
00:00:17,460 --> 00:00:20,463
And then Elon Musk jumped on,
and he was like, "Oh, you.
11
00:00:20,564 --> 00:00:22,933
I, uh... I didn't know
you were still alive."
12
00:00:23,033 --> 00:00:26,436
And people are, like, pissed off
'cause now it's Bernie bros
13
00:00:26,536 --> 00:00:29,673
versus Elon bros,
and, like, that's...
14
00:00:29,773 --> 00:00:30,941
You know what I mean?
15
00:00:31,041 --> 00:00:32,709
That's the Internet essentially.
16
00:00:32,809 --> 00:00:34,444
It's like a Reddit
royal rumble now.
17
00:00:34,544 --> 00:00:36,046
Like, good luck posting
your wedding pictures
18
00:00:36,146 --> 00:00:37,447
when this shit is happening.
19
00:00:37,547 --> 00:00:39,416
It's like gangs in the streets,
but on the tweets.
20
00:00:39,516 --> 00:00:40,684
That's what's happening now.
21
00:00:40,784 --> 00:00:42,352
You're like, uh,
"I love you, my wife."
22
00:00:42,452 --> 00:00:45,355
They're like, "Shut up!
Elon's right about this thing!"
23
00:00:45,455 --> 00:00:48,625
"And Bernie... You don't talk
to Bernie like that!"
24
00:00:48,725 --> 00:00:50,694
Everyone's mad,
losing their shit.
25
00:00:50,794 --> 00:00:52,829
One thing I will say
about Elon Musk is, like,
26
00:00:52,929 --> 00:00:54,631
Elon Musk is everything
27
00:00:54,731 --> 00:00:56,633
I thought a billionaire was
as a child.
28
00:00:56,733 --> 00:01:00,403
You know when I'd watch TV...
like, TV shows as a kid,
29
00:01:00,503 --> 00:01:02,105
I always was like, "Why do you
want to be a billionaire?"
30
00:01:02,138 --> 00:01:03,340
I'd be like,
"Yeah, so I could just
31
00:01:03,440 --> 00:01:04,841
tell everybody shit
all the time."
32
00:01:04,941 --> 00:01:06,409
You want to be like
Scrooge McDuck.
33
00:01:06,509 --> 00:01:08,345
And then you grow up, and then
billionaires are like...
34
00:01:08,445 --> 00:01:10,013
They're always talking about
business and doing boring...
35
00:01:10,113 --> 00:01:11,181
Like Jeff Bezos.
36
00:01:11,281 --> 00:01:13,350
The guy has all the money
of the world,
37
00:01:13,450 --> 00:01:15,552
and then still, he's like...
You know, if you'd be like,
38
00:01:15,652 --> 00:01:17,120
"Hey, what's happening
at your factory?"
39
00:01:17,220 --> 00:01:18,788
He's like, "Ah, we're going
to try to figure things out."
40
00:01:18,889 --> 00:01:20,257
And you're like, "Well, Jeff,
41
00:01:20,357 --> 00:01:21,958
this is not like
billionaire swag."
42
00:01:22,125 --> 00:01:23,560
You know? He works out.
43
00:01:23,660 --> 00:01:26,529
Why do you work out?
Why do...?
44
00:01:26,630 --> 00:01:29,833
Guys, you don't need muscles
if you have billions of dollars.
45
00:01:29,933 --> 00:01:31,368
Muscles are for lifting things.
46
00:01:31,468 --> 00:01:33,169
If you have a billion dollars,
you do not lift anything.
47
00:01:33,270 --> 00:01:34,371
Do you know what I mean?
48
00:01:34,471 --> 00:01:36,139
I would pay somebody
at the gym.
49
00:01:36,172 --> 00:01:37,340
"You do another rep.
50
00:01:37,440 --> 00:01:39,910
No, no, no I still feel...
Do another one."
51
00:01:40,010 --> 00:01:41,578
And then you'd be like,
"Yeah, but Trevor,
52
00:01:41,678 --> 00:01:43,046
then you're gonna gain weight,
you're gonna be unhealth..."
53
00:01:43,146 --> 00:01:45,415
I'll pay people to tell me
that I'm healthy. I'll pay them.
54
00:01:45,515 --> 00:01:47,017
And then you'll be like,
"But you might die."
55
00:01:47,150 --> 00:01:48,418
"Then I'll pay people to
bring me back from the dead.
56
00:01:48,518 --> 00:01:49,886
"I'm a billionaire.
57
00:01:49,986 --> 00:01:51,421
"I'll buy your body, bitch.
58
00:01:51,521 --> 00:01:53,156
I'll just buy
somebody else's body."
59
00:01:53,223 --> 00:01:54,558
Come back next week,
I'll be like, "Hey."
60
00:01:54,658 --> 00:01:56,026
You're like, "Who are you?"
"I'm Trevor.
61
00:01:56,159 --> 00:01:59,062
"Yeah, I bought your dad's body.
What now?"
62
00:01:59,162 --> 00:02:02,432
When I become a billionaire,
Matt, oh, man.
63
00:02:02,532 --> 00:02:03,867
First thing
that's going out of my life--
64
00:02:03,967 --> 00:02:05,969
greetings and goodbyes.
65
00:02:06,102 --> 00:02:07,804
Waste of my time
as a human being.
66
00:02:07,904 --> 00:02:09,205
When I get a billion,
67
00:02:09,306 --> 00:02:11,141
you guys forget me saying
"hello" or "goodbye."
68
00:02:11,241 --> 00:02:14,144
Wasting my time.
You know I'm coming back.
69
00:02:14,244 --> 00:02:16,313
You know you're seeing me
for the first time. "Hello."
70
00:02:16,413 --> 00:02:19,182
Why do I have to announce
my arrival to you? "Hello."
71
00:02:19,282 --> 00:02:21,618
What a useless thing.
These are things for peasants.
72
00:02:21,718 --> 00:02:23,587
When I get a billion-- you guys
don't even understand--
73
00:02:23,687 --> 00:02:25,222
no more "hellos."
It's over.
74
00:02:25,322 --> 00:02:26,489
I'm just gonna
walk up to you.
75
00:02:26,590 --> 00:02:28,124
You're just gonna see me.
76
00:02:28,191 --> 00:02:30,227
You're just gonna have
to be like, "He's here now."
77
00:02:30,327 --> 00:02:32,128
And then, when I leave,
I'm just gonna go.
78
00:02:32,162 --> 00:02:35,131
We'll be talking. "Yeah, the
thing. You see the game? 27!"
79
00:02:35,198 --> 00:02:38,468
Then I'm just gonna walk away.
80
00:02:38,568 --> 00:02:41,204
ANNOUNCER: Coming to you
from the heart of Times Square,
81
00:02:41,304 --> 00:02:44,174
in New York City,
the only city in America, it's
82
00:02:44,274 --> 00:02:46,576
The Daily Show.
83
00:02:46,676 --> 00:02:49,212
Tonight-- COVID is costing us,
84
00:02:49,312 --> 00:02:52,282
the best way to avoid the ICU,
85
00:02:52,382 --> 00:02:54,384
and Chris Christie.
86
00:02:54,484 --> 00:02:59,789
This is The Daily Show
with Trevor Noah.
87
00:02:59,890 --> 00:03:01,324
Hey! What's going on, everybody?
88
00:03:01,424 --> 00:03:03,560
Welcome to The Daily Show.
I'm Trevor Noah.
89
00:03:03,660 --> 00:03:05,228
Joining me for today's headlines
90
00:03:05,328 --> 00:03:07,564
is the one and only
Roy Wood, Jr.!
91
00:03:07,664 --> 00:03:09,466
-What's up, man?
-Yeah, Roy Wood.
92
00:03:09,566 --> 00:03:12,135
-I'm back, man.
-We love your comedy special
93
00:03:12,235 --> 00:03:14,271
-on Comedy Central
and Paramount+. -(cheering)
94
00:03:14,371 --> 00:03:15,639
Roy, we love you!
95
00:03:15,739 --> 00:03:17,340
-What's going on, man?
-Yeah, I'm good, man.
96
00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:20,744
-Yo, I saw Questlove over the
weekend at this thing. -Uh-huh.
97
00:03:20,844 --> 00:03:23,547
And he's really inspired me
to try and figure out
98
00:03:23,647 --> 00:03:26,483
this whole sidekick...
this sidekick shit, man.
99
00:03:26,583 --> 00:03:28,785
I mean, you should
let me play an instrument.
100
00:03:28,885 --> 00:03:30,420
No, no, but you're not
like a sidekick.
101
00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:31,821
There's a difference.
It's like,
102
00:03:31,922 --> 00:03:33,590
you're just keeping me company
because we're here,
103
00:03:33,690 --> 00:03:35,158
and we don't have an audience
yet. You know what I mean?
104
00:03:35,258 --> 00:03:37,227
Am I over there,
or am I on the side?
105
00:03:37,327 --> 00:03:39,729
Where am I right now,
physically in relation to you?
106
00:03:39,829 --> 00:03:41,231
-You're on the side. Yeah.
-I'm on the side?
107
00:03:41,331 --> 00:03:42,732
And am I kicking it?
108
00:03:42,832 --> 00:03:44,467
-You are indeed.
-Okay.
109
00:03:44,568 --> 00:03:46,136
So then, that's what...
that's what it is.
110
00:03:46,202 --> 00:03:47,837
It's just let me play
an instrument or something.
111
00:03:47,938 --> 00:03:51,207
I got... I played the flute for
two weeks in the sixth grade.
112
00:03:51,308 --> 00:03:53,310
-That won't work.
-I can't even audition
113
00:03:53,410 --> 00:03:55,245
-to be in the band?
-No, I think a flute...
114
00:03:55,345 --> 00:03:56,479
A flute is the worst thing
you can play
115
00:03:56,580 --> 00:03:57,814
when somebody tells a joke.
116
00:03:57,914 --> 00:03:59,616
Okay, tell a joke right now.
117
00:03:59,716 --> 00:04:00,884
-You tell a joke. You...
-(sighs)
118
00:04:00,984 --> 00:04:02,519
All right, I'll...
Knock, knock.
119
00:04:02,619 --> 00:04:04,087
-Who's there?
-Amos.
120
00:04:04,154 --> 00:04:05,822
-Amos who?
-A mosquito.
121
00:04:05,922 --> 00:04:07,190
(hums tune like flute)
122
00:04:07,290 --> 00:04:09,192
-(laughter)
-You're right. You're right.
123
00:04:09,292 --> 00:04:10,927
All right, let's jump straight
into today's headlines.
124
00:04:11,094 --> 00:04:13,496
♪ ♪
125
00:04:13,597 --> 00:04:16,099
We kick things off
with the ongoing investigation
126
00:04:16,132 --> 00:04:19,569
into the January 6 attack
on the U.S. Capitol building,
127
00:04:19,669 --> 00:04:21,104
also known
as the most successful
128
00:04:21,137 --> 00:04:23,106
Facebook Meetup of all time.
129
00:04:23,173 --> 00:04:25,609
Right now, a congressional
committee is trying
130
00:04:25,709 --> 00:04:29,112
to determine if President Trump
and his allies were involved
131
00:04:29,145 --> 00:04:32,182
in the violent attempt
to overturn the election.
132
00:04:32,282 --> 00:04:35,018
And one of the people
they most want to hear from
133
00:04:35,118 --> 00:04:37,487
is Steve Bannon,
former Trump advisor
134
00:04:37,587 --> 00:04:40,891
and the only person who should
maybe try horse de-wormer.
135
00:04:40,991 --> 00:04:42,359
I mean, it couldn't hurt.
136
00:04:42,459 --> 00:04:45,629
But like any innocent person,
Trump has told all of his people
137
00:04:45,729 --> 00:04:49,566
not to cooperate
with law enforcement at all.
138
00:04:49,666 --> 00:04:52,802
So Bannon defied a congressional
subpoena to testify,
139
00:04:52,903 --> 00:04:55,572
and this morning
he turned himself in,
140
00:04:55,672 --> 00:04:57,574
arriving at an FBI office,
141
00:04:57,674 --> 00:05:00,944
looking like he'd already served
ten years in prison.
142
00:05:01,077 --> 00:05:02,946
But if all of this activity
has Donald Trump worried,
143
00:05:03,079 --> 00:05:04,414
he's not showing it.
144
00:05:04,514 --> 00:05:08,285
In fact, when asked whether he
had tried to pressure Mike Pence
145
00:05:08,385 --> 00:05:10,654
into overturning the election
on January 6,
146
00:05:10,754 --> 00:05:13,123
well, Trump
basically admitted it
147
00:05:13,223 --> 00:05:15,258
in the most Trumpy way possible.
148
00:05:15,358 --> 00:05:17,160
NEWMAN: It had been reported
back in January
149
00:05:17,260 --> 00:05:19,696
by The New York Times
that Trump even pressured Pence
150
00:05:19,796 --> 00:05:23,767
on the morning of January 6
with a crude phone call.
151
00:05:23,867 --> 00:05:26,102
When I interviewed Trump
for Betrayal,
152
00:05:26,202 --> 00:05:27,871
I asked him about that.
153
00:05:42,719 --> 00:05:46,289
"I wouldn't dispute it"?
Wow. Wow, Trump is gangsta.
154
00:05:46,389 --> 00:05:48,425
Why would I dispute it?
The guy's a total pussy.
155
00:05:48,525 --> 00:05:49,659
Why would I dispute it?
156
00:05:49,759 --> 00:05:51,161
You know what I love
about Trump is that,
157
00:05:51,261 --> 00:05:53,597
even if he didn't say that,
he's the type of guy
158
00:05:53,697 --> 00:05:56,566
who would pretend he said it
just because it sounded cool.
159
00:05:56,666 --> 00:05:59,402
Yeah, that's a good line.
I totally said it. I said it.
160
00:05:59,502 --> 00:06:01,071
Patriot or pussy. I love it.
161
00:06:01,137 --> 00:06:02,772
I also love
how the reporter says,
162
00:06:02,872 --> 00:06:05,075
"Excuse my language,
excuse my language, sir,"
163
00:06:05,108 --> 00:06:06,743
as if Donald Trump
is going to be offended.
164
00:06:06,843 --> 00:06:09,980
My man, it's Donald Trump.
If anything, he'd be like,
165
00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:11,982
"Pussy, my favorite topic.
166
00:06:12,082 --> 00:06:14,150
Thank you for bringing this up.
Let's talk about it."
167
00:06:14,251 --> 00:06:16,152
And by the way, can we...
can we also acknowledge
168
00:06:16,253 --> 00:06:19,823
that "don't be a pussy" is the
thing people only go to in life
169
00:06:19,923 --> 00:06:21,892
when they don't have
any other arguments. You know?
170
00:06:21,992 --> 00:06:24,094
It's the last option
when you have nothing real
171
00:06:24,127 --> 00:06:26,229
to convince someone with.
172
00:06:26,329 --> 00:06:27,797
And yeah, it usually works,
173
00:06:27,898 --> 00:06:29,332
because no one wants to be
a pussy.
174
00:06:29,432 --> 00:06:31,501
I mean, that's probably
how cliff jumping started.
175
00:06:31,601 --> 00:06:33,169
(echoing):
I'm not a pussy!
176
00:06:33,270 --> 00:06:34,671
But sometimes
it's good to be a pussy.
177
00:06:34,771 --> 00:06:37,941
Oftentimes history is made
by pussies.
178
00:06:38,108 --> 00:06:40,377
I mean, Gandhi, total pussy.
179
00:06:40,477 --> 00:06:42,812
Yeah. Britain was like,
180
00:06:42,913 --> 00:06:45,515
"Are you going to fight us
or are you a pussy?"
181
00:06:45,615 --> 00:06:47,584
And Gandhi said, "I am a pussy.
182
00:06:47,684 --> 00:06:50,220
"You must be the pussy
you wish to see in the world.
183
00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:52,355
That is what we need more of."
184
00:06:52,455 --> 00:06:54,758
(laughs)
You know what's messed up, man?
185
00:06:54,858 --> 00:06:57,928
I kind of, in a way
I feel bad for Mike Pence, man.
186
00:06:58,028 --> 00:06:59,829
'Cause he was, like,
living that Christian life
187
00:06:59,930 --> 00:07:01,531
-and being all righteous.
-He was.
188
00:07:01,631 --> 00:07:03,266
And then, like,
the last four or five years,
189
00:07:03,366 --> 00:07:04,868
fumbled it, he going to hell.
190
00:07:04,968 --> 00:07:07,070
-(laughing)
-Like, you know how messed it is
191
00:07:07,103 --> 00:07:08,772
to just do everything perfect,
192
00:07:08,872 --> 00:07:10,240
and then
just in the ninth inning,
193
00:07:10,340 --> 00:07:11,908
"Oh, I'm going to Hell!"
194
00:07:12,075 --> 00:07:13,944
Didn't do nothing wrong
his whole life.
195
00:07:14,077 --> 00:07:17,380
He missed
all his good jackoff years.
196
00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:18,815
All the good jackoff years.
197
00:07:18,915 --> 00:07:22,519
Your jackoff years is
from 14 to about 45, 46,
198
00:07:22,619 --> 00:07:24,754
and he didn't do nothing,
just a pure man.
199
00:07:24,854 --> 00:07:27,657
Then he started hanging
with Trump, now you go to Hell.
200
00:07:27,757 --> 00:07:29,726
Nothing to do
with patriot or pussy.
201
00:07:29,826 --> 00:07:31,294
Just messed up.
202
00:07:31,394 --> 00:07:33,930
I feel bad for Mike Pence, man.
He gonna be all right.
203
00:07:34,097 --> 00:07:35,665
All right,
let's move on to our top story.
204
00:07:35,765 --> 00:07:39,402
Right now inflation is
the one thing people hate
205
00:07:39,502 --> 00:07:41,338
even more than Jake Gyllenhaal.
206
00:07:41,438 --> 00:07:43,640
It seems like everything
is more expensive these days.
207
00:07:43,740 --> 00:07:45,442
Groceries are more expensive.
208
00:07:45,542 --> 00:07:47,644
Cars are more expensive.
209
00:07:47,744 --> 00:07:50,313
Ty Dolla Sign
is now Ty Dolla Fifty.
210
00:07:50,413 --> 00:07:52,115
I can't afford that shit
anymore.
211
00:07:52,148 --> 00:07:54,517
But there's one price
that people notice
212
00:07:54,618 --> 00:07:58,355
more than anything,
and that's the price of gas.
213
00:07:58,455 --> 00:07:59,923
More pain at the pump
for drivers
214
00:08:00,056 --> 00:08:02,125
as we head into the busy
holiday travel season.
215
00:08:02,225 --> 00:08:05,662
Gas prices keep going
only one direction: up.
216
00:08:05,762 --> 00:08:09,432
Gas prices rising over
six percent over the last month,
217
00:08:09,532 --> 00:08:12,402
up nearly 50%
over the last year.
218
00:08:12,502 --> 00:08:15,272
Gas prices are at their
highest levels in seven years.
219
00:08:15,372 --> 00:08:17,974
According to AAA,
we're looking at $3.42 a gallon
220
00:08:18,074 --> 00:08:19,509
on average right now.
221
00:08:19,609 --> 00:08:22,078
NEWSMAN: Americans are spending
$430 million more
222
00:08:22,112 --> 00:08:25,181
every day on gasoline
than just one year ago today.
223
00:08:25,282 --> 00:08:27,984
Every time I fill up,
it's close to, like, $80, $90.
224
00:08:28,084 --> 00:08:31,121
It's, like, uh...
do you want to eat steak
225
00:08:31,221 --> 00:08:33,290
or do you want to fill up
your tank?
226
00:08:33,390 --> 00:08:35,091
Yeah. That's a tough choice.
227
00:08:35,125 --> 00:08:36,593
Do you want to eat steak,
228
00:08:36,693 --> 00:08:38,695
or do you want to pour gas
in your car?
229
00:08:38,795 --> 00:08:42,098
I mean, I do have to say,
you don't have to choose.
230
00:08:42,132 --> 00:08:45,602
Yeah, you just fill up your car
and then drive it into a cow.
231
00:08:45,702 --> 00:08:47,604
Boom! Then you get both.
232
00:08:47,704 --> 00:08:50,707
No, but for real, though,
this is a big problem.
233
00:08:50,807 --> 00:08:53,443
High gas prices affect
so many aspect of life,
234
00:08:53,543 --> 00:08:56,112
like, from getting to work
to childcare
235
00:08:56,179 --> 00:08:57,981
to, you know,
all your friends who bike
236
00:08:58,114 --> 00:08:59,749
becoming even more smug
about it.
237
00:08:59,849 --> 00:09:00,917
But the question is
238
00:09:01,051 --> 00:09:03,620
why are gas prices
going up so much?
239
00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:06,356
Well, like everything
in our life right now,
240
00:09:06,456 --> 00:09:08,258
it has a lot to do
with the pandemic.
241
00:09:08,358 --> 00:09:10,126
So, let's talk
about why this is happening
242
00:09:10,227 --> 00:09:12,796
and what Joe Biden
can do about it
243
00:09:12,896 --> 00:09:16,132
in another installment
of Getting Back to Normal-ish.
244
00:09:16,233 --> 00:09:18,268
♪ ♪
245
00:09:23,573 --> 00:09:27,310
Think back for a moment
to spring of 2020.
246
00:09:27,410 --> 00:09:30,080
Much of the world
had ground to a halt,
247
00:09:30,146 --> 00:09:32,082
which meant that people
weren't driving.
248
00:09:32,115 --> 00:09:35,118
They weren't visiting friends
or going into the office
249
00:09:35,218 --> 00:09:37,654
or hanging out
of the passenger side
250
00:09:37,754 --> 00:09:40,624
of their best friend's ride,
trying to holler at me.
251
00:09:40,724 --> 00:09:42,225
If you left your home at all,
252
00:09:42,325 --> 00:09:45,095
it was probably to take
a sad walk around the block.
253
00:09:45,195 --> 00:09:48,098
I mean, at least until you heard
someone cough down the street,
254
00:09:48,131 --> 00:09:50,000
and then you ran your ass
back inside.
255
00:09:50,100 --> 00:09:51,835
Now, because of all of that,
256
00:09:51,935 --> 00:09:54,704
that meant
that America's oil industry,
257
00:09:54,804 --> 00:09:58,508
which had been producing more
than any country in the world,
258
00:09:58,608 --> 00:09:59,876
basically shut down.
259
00:10:00,110 --> 00:10:02,279
And even though society
has ramped back up again,
260
00:10:02,379 --> 00:10:05,282
the oil industry hasn't.
261
00:10:05,382 --> 00:10:07,183
NEWSMAN: Early in the pandemic,
demand for gasoline
262
00:10:07,284 --> 00:10:10,687
dropped dramatically as workers
were told to stay home.
263
00:10:10,787 --> 00:10:12,422
NEWSWOMAN:
That immediately walloped
264
00:10:12,522 --> 00:10:15,725
the oil and gas industry
like nothing ever in its history
265
00:10:15,825 --> 00:10:17,227
has ever hit them before.
266
00:10:17,327 --> 00:10:19,596
At one point early on
in the coronavirus crisis,
267
00:10:19,696 --> 00:10:21,298
the price of a barrel of oil,
268
00:10:21,398 --> 00:10:24,434
it cost less than zero dollars.
269
00:10:24,534 --> 00:10:25,936
NEWSMAN 2:
When prices dropped abruptly
270
00:10:26,036 --> 00:10:28,538
with the pandemic shutdown,
U.S. shale producers
271
00:10:28,638 --> 00:10:31,174
dramatically slowed
the drilling of new wells.
272
00:10:31,274 --> 00:10:32,842
Rigs were taken out of service,
273
00:10:32,943 --> 00:10:36,213
and oil production in the U.S.
dropped off significantly.
274
00:10:36,313 --> 00:10:37,480
They shut down production.
275
00:10:37,581 --> 00:10:40,016
They laid off
tens of thousands of workers
276
00:10:40,116 --> 00:10:43,019
to try and stay alive
during the pandemic.
277
00:10:43,119 --> 00:10:44,688
Just like everything else
in our lives,
278
00:10:44,788 --> 00:10:48,291
the oil production
has been impacted by COVID.
279
00:10:48,391 --> 00:10:52,128
It can't just flick a switch
at a refinery and operations
280
00:10:52,229 --> 00:10:54,231
and have everything
back to normal.
281
00:10:54,331 --> 00:10:56,700
Yeah. One of the reasons
gas prices are so high
282
00:10:56,800 --> 00:10:59,002
is because America
is making less gas
283
00:10:59,102 --> 00:11:00,604
than it did before the pandemic.
284
00:11:00,704 --> 00:11:02,372
Because people
may be driving again,
285
00:11:02,472 --> 00:11:04,774
but that doesn't mean
that it's easy for gas producers
286
00:11:04,874 --> 00:11:07,978
to just instantly produce
as much as they were before.
287
00:11:08,111 --> 00:11:10,280
You got to grow
a whole new dinosaur
288
00:11:10,380 --> 00:11:12,282
and smoosh it
until the oil comes out.
289
00:11:12,382 --> 00:11:13,850
That takes time.
290
00:11:13,950 --> 00:11:17,120
And it makes sense that it's
gonna take them time to adjust.
291
00:11:17,153 --> 00:11:19,189
I mean, it's been hard
for all of us, right?
292
00:11:19,289 --> 00:11:20,957
Every single one of us.
It's been hard for us
293
00:11:21,124 --> 00:11:23,326
to get back to normal life
after the pandemic.
294
00:11:23,426 --> 00:11:25,195
Do you remember the first time
295
00:11:25,295 --> 00:11:27,964
you had to make small talk
at the office?
296
00:11:28,131 --> 00:11:29,766
Nobody knew what we were doing.
297
00:11:29,866 --> 00:11:31,534
"Welcome to the elevator.
298
00:11:31,635 --> 00:11:33,870
Do you remember weather? Yeah?"
299
00:11:33,970 --> 00:11:35,906
"I do. Not."
300
00:11:36,006 --> 00:11:37,641
-"My wife is leaving me."
-(elevator bell chimes)
301
00:11:37,741 --> 00:11:40,443
"This is not my floor,
but I'm getting out."
302
00:11:40,544 --> 00:11:42,312
Now, if America
isn't making enough oil
303
00:11:42,412 --> 00:11:44,748
to keep up with demand,
then why doesn't it
304
00:11:44,848 --> 00:11:46,283
just buy more
from the rest of the world?
305
00:11:46,383 --> 00:11:48,218
Well, it could, but it turns out
306
00:11:48,318 --> 00:11:50,487
the people who control the oil
in the rest of the world,
307
00:11:50,587 --> 00:11:53,223
well, they just don't feel
like sharing.
308
00:11:53,323 --> 00:11:55,058
Gas prices
really not being driven up
309
00:11:55,158 --> 00:11:56,526
by the demand on the horizon.
310
00:11:56,626 --> 00:11:58,595
It's really
more about the supply.
311
00:11:58,695 --> 00:12:00,564
Oil-producing nations
are actually constricting
312
00:12:00,664 --> 00:12:02,098
the supply a little bit
313
00:12:02,132 --> 00:12:05,302
because they're trying
to recoup their pandemic losses.
314
00:12:05,402 --> 00:12:06,670
There's a cartel that controls
315
00:12:06,770 --> 00:12:08,171
the price of oil
internationally,
316
00:12:08,271 --> 00:12:10,173
and that cartel is called OPEC.
317
00:12:10,273 --> 00:12:12,509
NEWSWOMAN: OPEC, the biggest
oil-producing nations,
318
00:12:12,609 --> 00:12:14,611
aren't increasing
the amount of oil
319
00:12:14,711 --> 00:12:16,813
they release
into the global economy,
320
00:12:16,913 --> 00:12:19,216
so as demand rebounds
in the U.S.,
321
00:12:19,316 --> 00:12:22,419
Americans are paying
about $16 more
322
00:12:22,519 --> 00:12:25,388
to fill up their tanks
than a year ago.
323
00:12:25,488 --> 00:12:27,123
NEWSMAN: President Biden
recently appealed
324
00:12:27,190 --> 00:12:29,826
to OPEC and Russia
to boost production
325
00:12:29,926 --> 00:12:32,128
but received a flat no.
326
00:12:32,162 --> 00:12:35,865
Wow. They received a flat no.
327
00:12:35,966 --> 00:12:37,500
I mean, to be fair,
328
00:12:37,601 --> 00:12:40,937
every "no" coming out
of a Russian is a flat no.
329
00:12:41,037 --> 00:12:42,906
Have you ever talked
to a Russian person?
330
00:12:43,006 --> 00:12:45,775
They're never afraid
of a flat no.
331
00:12:45,875 --> 00:12:49,145
"Hey, are you having
a-a good day?" "No."
332
00:12:49,179 --> 00:12:51,781
(chuckles) "Well, there's...
there's always tomorrow, right?"
333
00:12:51,882 --> 00:12:53,049
"No."
334
00:12:53,149 --> 00:12:54,951
And, look, you can understand
OPEC's position.
335
00:12:55,051 --> 00:12:57,954
I mean, how much longer
is oil gonna be around?
336
00:12:58,054 --> 00:13:01,191
Right? They need to make money
on this shit now
337
00:13:01,291 --> 00:13:03,793
before we're all driving
Elon Musk's cars
338
00:13:03,894 --> 00:13:06,096
that curse out Bernie Sanders
when you honk the horn.
339
00:13:06,129 --> 00:13:08,131
And, by the way, you also know
what this means, right?
340
00:13:08,231 --> 00:13:09,933
You realize
that this is the first time
341
00:13:10,100 --> 00:13:12,936
America could openly go to war
for oil.
342
00:13:13,103 --> 00:13:14,938
Because usually when America
goes into the Middle East,
343
00:13:15,105 --> 00:13:16,706
it's always like,
"This isn't about oil.
344
00:13:16,806 --> 00:13:19,943
My son is going over there
to fight for freedom."
345
00:13:20,110 --> 00:13:22,879
But if prices go any higher,
now Americans can just be like,
346
00:13:22,979 --> 00:13:25,215
"Kevin, you get your butt
in that fighter jet
347
00:13:25,315 --> 00:13:27,951
"because your dad is not paying
six dollars a gallon!
348
00:13:28,118 --> 00:13:29,686
That's my steak money!"
349
00:13:29,786 --> 00:13:31,254
Now, the good news is
350
00:13:31,354 --> 00:13:34,190
America is not going to war yet.
351
00:13:34,291 --> 00:13:36,493
But asking OPEC nicely
also didn't work.
352
00:13:36,593 --> 00:13:37,694
So the big question is,
353
00:13:37,794 --> 00:13:40,530
what can be done
to lower gas prices?
354
00:13:40,630 --> 00:13:43,934
Well, the bad news for
President Biden is: not much.
355
00:13:44,034 --> 00:13:46,770
The Biden administration
is scrambling for solutions
356
00:13:46,870 --> 00:13:49,940
to one of his biggest, biggest
political liabilities,
357
00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:51,841
soaring gas prices.
358
00:13:51,942 --> 00:13:53,743
NEWSWOMAN: Like presidents
who came before him,
359
00:13:53,843 --> 00:13:55,278
Joe Biden has few options
360
00:13:55,378 --> 00:13:58,281
when it comes to combating
high fuel prices.
361
00:13:58,381 --> 00:14:01,284
Nearly a dozen Senate Democrats
are calling on Biden
362
00:14:01,384 --> 00:14:04,588
to consider all the tools
available at your disposal,
363
00:14:04,688 --> 00:14:08,391
even the extreme step
of banning American oil exports,
364
00:14:08,491 --> 00:14:11,094
which Goldman Sachs warned
would be counterproductive
365
00:14:11,161 --> 00:14:13,096
and could actually raise prices.
366
00:14:13,129 --> 00:14:14,531
The president also considering
367
00:14:14,631 --> 00:14:17,200
tapping
the Strategic Petroleum Reserve,
368
00:14:17,300 --> 00:14:18,835
though industry experts
have warned
369
00:14:18,935 --> 00:14:21,438
that would do little
to alleviate the problem.
370
00:14:21,538 --> 00:14:23,406
NEWSMAN: If you ask the energy
industry, they would say,
371
00:14:23,506 --> 00:14:25,942
"Well, the White House could cut
environmental regulation,
372
00:14:26,109 --> 00:14:27,410
and maybe that would help."
373
00:14:27,510 --> 00:14:29,379
And it could,
maybe for next winter,
374
00:14:29,479 --> 00:14:30,580
but that would take some time.
375
00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:33,183
President Biden
does not have a magic wand
376
00:14:33,283 --> 00:14:35,185
to dramatically lower
gas prices.
377
00:14:35,285 --> 00:14:38,121
And if he did, judging upon
his sinking poll numbers,
378
00:14:38,188 --> 00:14:39,723
-he would use that magic wand.
-Mm-hmm.
379
00:14:39,823 --> 00:14:41,391
I don't know about that.
380
00:14:41,491 --> 00:14:44,261
I mean, I feel like even if
Joe Biden did have a magic wand,
381
00:14:44,361 --> 00:14:46,796
he'd still need
to recite a spell.
382
00:14:46,897 --> 00:14:48,298
And based
on what we've all seen,
383
00:14:48,398 --> 00:14:51,134
I do not have confidence that
he'd be able to get it right.
384
00:14:51,167 --> 00:14:53,370
"Uh, al-alakazam. Abra-abraca--

"You-you know the thing.
You know the thing.
388
00:14:58,308 --> 00:14:59,509
Did it work?"
389
00:14:59,609 --> 00:15:01,711
What's tough for Biden
is that it doesn't matter
390
00:15:01,811 --> 00:15:02,946
what else he does.
391
00:15:03,079 --> 00:15:05,882
If the price of gas stays high,
that's that.
392
00:15:05,982 --> 00:15:07,684
He could sign all the
infrastructure bills he wants.
393
00:15:07,784 --> 00:15:09,686
He could get everyone
to agree on abortion.
394
00:15:09,786 --> 00:15:11,588
But all people care about is
395
00:15:11,688 --> 00:15:14,724
how much is the black goo
from the ground.
396
00:15:14,824 --> 00:15:16,092
Higher than before?
397
00:15:16,159 --> 00:15:18,161
Then get the (bleep) out
of here.
398
00:15:18,261 --> 00:15:20,864
So it's not exaggerating to say
that his whole presidency,

his entire presidency,
400
00:15:22,432 --> 00:15:26,937
could depend on whether
gas prices stay up or go down.
401
00:15:27,103 --> 00:15:28,271

00:19:52,001 --> 00:19:54,470
but I will come to your house
every 15 minutes
510
00:19:54,570 --> 00:19:57,072
to check your chart
and just say something.
511
00:19:57,172 --> 00:19:59,508
Looking good.
512
00:19:59,608 --> 00:20:01,644
Hmm. That's weird.
513
00:20:03,145 --> 00:20:05,814
Damn, how are you still alive?
514
00:20:05,915 --> 00:20:07,950
We've got all types of IV bags:
515
00:20:08,050 --> 00:20:11,654
glucose, cold brew
and chicken noodle.
516
00:20:11,820 --> 00:20:13,222
And if you get
our deluxe package,
517
00:20:13,322 --> 00:20:15,424
we'll partner you
with another ICU patient
518
00:20:15,524 --> 00:20:17,693
who's going through
something far worse than you.
519
00:20:17,826 --> 00:20:19,061
(man screams)
520
00:20:19,161 --> 00:20:21,497
MAN:
Oh, no! No! (screaming)
521
00:20:23,666 --> 00:20:25,200
And in your darkest hour,
522
00:20:25,301 --> 00:20:28,237
as you sit there
in unimaginable pain,
523
00:20:28,337 --> 00:20:30,839
wishing that you'd had
one more day
524
00:20:30,940 --> 00:20:33,042
to tell Lisa that you love her,
525
00:20:33,142 --> 00:20:35,444
we'll send in an ice-cold
insurance representative
526
00:20:35,544 --> 00:20:37,947
to make sure you fill out
hundreds of forms.
527
00:20:38,047 --> 00:20:39,949
Wake your ass up.
You ain't in no coma.
528
00:20:40,049 --> 00:20:42,418
Come on, now,
we got paperwork to do.
529
00:20:43,786 --> 00:20:45,955
So, avoid the COVID
and let Leo Deblin
530
00:20:46,055 --> 00:20:47,823
bring the ICU to you.
531
00:20:47,923 --> 00:20:49,291
It ain't but $85.
532
00:20:49,391 --> 00:20:51,427
You can get that from your mama.
533
00:20:51,527 --> 00:20:53,929

538
00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:07,076
Now, that's a deal.
All right, when we come back,
539
00:21:07,176 --> 00:21:09,812
former Governor Chris Christie
will be joining me
540
00:21:09,878 --> 00:21:12,581
right here in the studio.
You don't want to miss it.
541
00:21:14,388 --> 00:21:15,756
Welcome back to The Daily Show.
542
00:21:15,856 --> 00:21:17,925
My guest tonight is the
former governor of New Jersey,
543
00:21:18,025 --> 00:21:19,192
Chris Christie.
544
00:21:19,293 --> 00:21:20,761
He's here to discuss
his new book
545
00:21:20,861 --> 00:21:22,963
and why he thinks
the Republican Party
546
00:21:23,063 --> 00:21:24,464
needs to be rescued.
547
00:21:24,564 --> 00:21:26,199
Chris Christie,
welcome to The Daily Show.
548
00:21:26,300 --> 00:21:27,334
Trevor, happy to be back.
549
00:21:27,434 --> 00:21:29,202
Um, before we start
the interview,
550
00:21:29,303 --> 00:21:31,104
I want to know, what type
of interview are we having?
551
00:21:31,204 --> 00:21:32,773
Are we having, like,
a legit conversation,
552
00:21:32,873 --> 00:21:34,541
or are you gonna...
are you gonna politician me?
553
00:21:34,641 --> 00:21:36,076
-Oh. -I only ask you this
'cause you're the one person
554
00:21:36,176 --> 00:21:37,611
who will tell me the truth
about whether you will or won't.
555
00:21:37,711 --> 00:21:39,146
-We'll go totally legit.
-Okay. We'll do legit.
556
00:21:39,246 --> 00:21:40,914
-Like we did the last time.
We'll go legit. -Let's do it.
557
00:21:41,014 --> 00:21:43,317
-Yeah. -Let's do it. Um,
I love the title of your book.
558
00:21:43,417 --> 00:21:45,052
Chris Christie.
Republican Rescue:
559
00:21:45,152 --> 00:21:47,187
Saving the Party
from Truth Deniers,
560
00:21:47,287 --> 00:21:48,989
Conspiracy Theorists,
561
00:21:49,089 --> 00:21:50,757
and the Dangerous Policies
of Joe Biden.
562
00:21:50,857 --> 00:21:52,926
It seems like the Republicans
need to be rescued
563
00:21:53,026 --> 00:21:55,295
-from a lot of things.
-Yeah. They do.
564
00:21:55,395 --> 00:21:58,098
And-and, look, the biggest thing
we need to be rescued from
565
00:21:58,198 --> 00:21:59,766
or to is the truth.
566
00:21:59,866 --> 00:22:01,368
You know, if we don't become
567
00:22:01,468 --> 00:22:02,970
the party of telling the truth
again,
568
00:22:03,070 --> 00:22:06,039
we got no hope for anybody
to trust us to do anything.
569
00:22:06,139 --> 00:22:08,241
And when we get
all these conspiracy theories
570
00:22:08,342 --> 00:22:10,577
and truth deniers,
it's just not gonna work.
571
00:22:10,677 --> 00:22:12,479
And, so,
what I try to do in the book
572
00:22:12,579 --> 00:22:15,148
is to go through, like, QAnon
573
00:22:15,248 --> 00:22:18,552
and PizzaGate and birtherism
574
00:22:18,652 --> 00:22:22,189
and election stuff and say,
"Here are the real facts.
575
00:22:22,289 --> 00:22:25,359
"And I hope after you read them,
you'll come to the conclusion
576
00:22:25,492 --> 00:22:27,194
"there's no truth
to any of this stuff
577
00:22:27,294 --> 00:22:29,229
"and we need to focus
on the important things
578
00:22:29,329 --> 00:22:30,764
that are going on
in the country right now."
579
00:22:30,864 --> 00:22:32,132
But surely you realize
580
00:22:32,232 --> 00:22:36,270
you are up against
a monumental, like, issue here
581
00:22:36,370 --> 00:22:38,405
because a lot
of the Republican Party
582
00:22:38,505 --> 00:22:39,873
believes many of these things.
583
00:22:39,973 --> 00:22:41,842
Yeah, well, that's what
leadership's all about, right?
584
00:22:41,942 --> 00:22:44,044
I mean, i-in the end,
if you want to try to lead--
585
00:22:44,144 --> 00:22:45,512
which is what I'm trying to do,
586
00:22:45,545 --> 00:22:47,614
is to help to lead the party
in another direction--
587
00:22:47,714 --> 00:22:49,750
then it's...
it involves some risk.
588
00:22:49,850 --> 00:22:51,051
Like, if it were easy,
589
00:22:51,151 --> 00:22:52,519
you wouldn't be
at the front of the parade.
590
00:22:52,619 --> 00:22:54,021
You'd be in the middle
of the parade.
591
00:22:54,121 --> 00:22:57,624
Right? So, I'm taking
a chance here, I guess,
592
00:22:57,724 --> 00:22:59,126
but, to me, it's a chance
593
00:22:59,226 --> 00:23:00,560
on the best thing
to take a chance on,
594
00:23:00,661 --> 00:23:01,995
which is the truth.
595
00:23:02,095 --> 00:23:05,832
And you are not afraid
of the-the Donald Trump element?
596
00:23:05,933 --> 00:23:07,601
-I'm... -I mean, because...
'cause you're not just...
597
00:23:07,701 --> 00:23:09,369
You're not just talking
to Republican people here.
598
00:23:09,536 --> 00:23:11,138
You're talking to Republicans,
599
00:23:11,238 --> 00:23:12,973
but you know
one of your audience members
600
00:23:13,073 --> 00:23:14,541
is Donald J. Trump,
601
00:23:14,641 --> 00:23:16,376
-who believes some of the things
that are in this book. -Sure.
602
00:23:16,476 --> 00:23:19,346
Sure. And, look,
I've known him for 20 years.
603
00:23:19,479 --> 00:23:20,681
-NOAH: Yeah.
-CHRISTIE: Unlike most people
604
00:23:20,781 --> 00:23:22,349
who know him of recent vintage,
605
00:23:22,482 --> 00:23:23,984
I've known him personally
for 20 years.
606
00:23:24,084 --> 00:23:26,486
And no, like, I'm not afraid
of telling him the truth.
607
00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:28,088
I've never been afraid
of telling him the truth.
608
00:23:28,188 --> 00:23:31,491
Um, all the time
that I did things with him,
609
00:23:31,525 --> 00:23:32,993
uh, ran against him
610
00:23:33,093 --> 00:23:35,495
and then helped to advise him,
prepare him for debates,
611
00:23:35,596 --> 00:23:37,030
I was the guy
he always brought in
612
00:23:37,130 --> 00:23:38,365
-to give him a hard time.
-Uh-huh.
613
00:23:38,498 --> 00:23:41,001
And, so, the book
follows in that pattern.
614
00:23:41,101 --> 00:23:43,670
So, let's talk about the
relationship you have with Trump
615
00:23:43,770 --> 00:23:45,505
and then the relationship
that the Republican Party
616
00:23:45,606 --> 00:23:47,240
has with Donald Trump.
617
00:23:47,341 --> 00:23:50,410
For many years,
it was the party, right?
618
00:23:50,510 --> 00:23:52,379
Which is what many would argue
good politics is.
619
00:23:52,512 --> 00:23:53,814
It's about the party,
and it's about people
620
00:23:53,914 --> 00:23:54,948
who vote for the party.
621
00:23:55,048 --> 00:23:56,817
Now it has become about Trump.
622
00:23:56,917 --> 00:23:58,218
People say, "I'm a Trumper.
623
00:23:58,318 --> 00:24:00,087
I vote for Donald Trump."
624
00:24:00,187 --> 00:24:02,656
The Republican Party
comes second to that.
625
00:24:02,756 --> 00:24:04,591
That means one man
can determine the vision
626
00:24:04,691 --> 00:24:06,994
and the mission that doesn't
necessarily coincide
627
00:24:07,094 --> 00:24:09,663
with conservativism, whatever
that may be in this day and age.
628
00:24:09,763 --> 00:24:11,965
So when-when you...
629
00:24:12,065 --> 00:24:13,967
You have a relationship
with Donald Trump, right?
630
00:24:14,067 --> 00:24:15,369
You guys talk. You haven't
talked in a while now,
631
00:24:15,469 --> 00:24:16,570
-from what I understand.
-Mm-hmm. True.
632
00:24:16,670 --> 00:24:18,071
But-but you guys...
but you guys talk.
633
00:24:18,171 --> 00:24:21,074
Do you see a world where,
A: he doesn't...
634
00:24:21,174 --> 00:24:23,210
doesn't run for president,
and then B:
635
00:24:23,310 --> 00:24:25,379
a world where
you can convince him
636
00:24:25,479 --> 00:24:27,180
to not make the next election
about this?
637
00:24:27,281 --> 00:24:28,582
'Cause you know
he's going to do that.
638
00:24:28,682 --> 00:24:31,151
Well, look, I think
a few things. First off,
639
00:24:31,251 --> 00:24:33,520
there's a really interesting
new poll today out of Iowa.
640
00:24:33,620 --> 00:24:36,123
Uh, Iowa Republicans
being polled
641
00:24:36,223 --> 00:24:37,524
-by The Des Moines Register.
-Mm-hmm.
642
00:24:37,624 --> 00:24:39,026
And they're-they're amongst
643
00:24:39,126 --> 00:24:41,094
the most conservative
Republicans in America.
644
00:24:41,194 --> 00:24:43,830
Um, they asked,
"Where is your loyalty the most?
645
00:24:43,931 --> 00:24:45,832
-To the Republican Party,
or to Donald Trump?" -Yeah.
646
00:24:45,933 --> 00:24:48,835
-62% said the Republican Party.
-Wow.
647
00:24:48,936 --> 00:24:50,837
26% said Donald Trump, in Iowa.
648
00:24:50,938 --> 00:24:53,073
So I think
things are changing, Trevor.
649
00:24:53,173 --> 00:24:55,309
I think
as he's no longer on Twitter...
650
00:24:55,409 --> 00:24:57,577
He's only been out of office
for less than ten months.
651
00:24:57,678 --> 00:24:59,546
-Mm-hmm. -And he dominated
all the political oxygen
652
00:24:59,646 --> 00:25:02,082
-in this country
for five years. -Right.
653
00:25:02,182 --> 00:25:04,418
Right? So, we're an instant
gratification society.
654
00:25:04,518 --> 00:25:06,153
People expect things, you know,
to happen like that.
655
00:25:06,253 --> 00:25:07,621
-They don't sometimes.
-Mm-hmm.
656
00:25:07,721 --> 00:25:10,190
And so, as the emotion
drains out of this
657
00:25:10,290 --> 00:25:13,894
and you leave the facts,
I think people are going to say
658
00:25:13,994 --> 00:25:17,898
a Republican Party that's built
on many foundations...
659
00:25:17,998 --> 00:25:19,099
-Mm-hmm.
-...is much more valuable
660
00:25:19,199 --> 00:25:20,667
than one that's built on one.
661
00:25:20,767 --> 00:25:21,935
And by the way, the president...
662
00:25:22,035 --> 00:25:23,604
the former president
can be part of that
663
00:25:23,704 --> 00:25:25,539
if he wants to start talking
about tomorrow
664
00:25:25,639 --> 00:25:27,808
and stop talking
about yesterday.
665
00:25:27,908 --> 00:25:30,010
So, that's what we should be
thinking about is,
666
00:25:30,110 --> 00:25:32,012
how do we get to the next step?
667
00:25:32,112 --> 00:25:35,349
And I think that that Iowa poll
starts to tell us.
668
00:25:35,482 --> 00:25:36,783
It's not there yet.
669
00:25:36,883 --> 00:25:38,986
But starts to tell us
that people are starting to...
670
00:25:39,086 --> 00:25:40,387
Like, the emotions ran out
and say,
671
00:25:40,487 --> 00:25:43,257
"All right,
so what are our options?"
672
00:25:43,357 --> 00:25:44,591
Is this book your way
673
00:25:44,691 --> 00:25:46,326
of putting yourself forward
as an option?
674
00:25:46,493 --> 00:25:47,728
Is this... is this you
planting the seeds
675
00:25:47,828 --> 00:25:49,529
for you running
in the next election?
676
00:25:49,630 --> 00:25:51,898
No, this is me planting
the seeds
677
00:25:51,999 --> 00:25:53,300
for... somebody.
678
00:25:53,400 --> 00:25:55,369
'Cause lots of people
whisper this stuff to me.
679
00:25:55,502 --> 00:25:58,038
-Uh-huh.
-Someone has to say it out loud.
680
00:25:58,138 --> 00:26:00,140
Someone's got to be willing
to come forward and say,
681
00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:01,942
-"Here are the...
here's the truth." -Uh-huh.
682
00:26:02,042 --> 00:26:03,510
"And here's the path forward."
683
00:26:03,610 --> 00:26:05,679
-It doesn't mean I won't run
in '24. -Okay. Okay.
684
00:26:05,779 --> 00:26:08,215
But, you know, I'll...
I certainly will think about it.
685
00:26:08,315 --> 00:26:10,884
-Would you... would you run
if Trump runs? -Sure.
686
00:26:10,984 --> 00:26:12,686
-Oh. So, you'll run
against Donald Trump? -Sure.
687
00:26:12,786 --> 00:26:15,022
Where's a camera? Put this
camera on Chris Christie's face.
688
00:26:15,122 --> 00:26:16,823
-You'll run against
Donald Trump? -Yes.
689
00:26:16,924 --> 00:26:18,458
Okay. We'll...
We're gonna keep that tape.
690
00:26:18,525 --> 00:26:21,228
-Keep that baby. And then let me
tell you why... -(laughs)
691
00:26:21,328 --> 00:26:22,763
You don't feel pressure
to not run against him?
692
00:26:22,863 --> 00:26:24,731
-No. -'Cause, I mean, we've
heard many Republicans say,
693
00:26:24,831 --> 00:26:26,566
"I would run. If Donald Trump
doesn't run, I'd run."
694
00:26:26,667 --> 00:26:27,935
The only one I... who I know
695
00:26:28,035 --> 00:26:29,836
openly hasn't said this
is Ron DeSantis.
696
00:26:29,937 --> 00:26:31,605
And it seems interesting there
where he's going like,
697
00:26:31,705 --> 00:26:33,173
"I'm not saying anything."
698
00:26:33,273 --> 00:26:35,242
And people believe that he could
be a major contender.
699
00:26:35,342 --> 00:26:37,878
So you're not... You would run
against Donald Trump?
700
00:26:37,978 --> 00:26:39,613
I would if I decide
I want to run for president.
701
00:26:39,713 --> 00:26:41,281
And listen, I think
anybody, Trevor...
702
00:26:41,381 --> 00:26:43,250
If you believe
that you're the best person
703
00:26:43,350 --> 00:26:44,751
-to be president
of the United States... -Mm-hmm.
704
00:26:44,851 --> 00:26:47,154
-...why does it matter
who else runs? Right? -Okay.
705
00:26:47,254 --> 00:26:49,356
To me, it's almost
disqualifying to say,
706
00:26:49,489 --> 00:26:50,924
"I'll defer to somebody else."
707
00:26:51,024 --> 00:26:53,026
Let's say Trump runs again,
708
00:26:53,126 --> 00:26:54,728
and let's say
he wins the nomination.
709
00:26:54,828 --> 00:26:56,697
Are you going to support him
when he goes to be president?
710
00:26:56,797 --> 00:26:59,566
Look, if he doesn't stop talking
about this election
711
00:26:59,666 --> 00:27:01,802
-as being stolen...
-Uh-huh.
712
00:27:01,902 --> 00:27:05,906
...then I can't support anybody
who winds up saying
713
00:27:06,006 --> 00:27:07,541
that our democracy didn't work.
714
00:27:07,641 --> 00:27:09,776
So apart from that,
you would support him, then?
715
00:27:09,876 --> 00:27:11,678
No, I'm not going to get
into every issue.
716
00:27:11,778 --> 00:27:13,480
-There's some things
I would agree on. -Okay.
717
00:27:13,580 --> 00:27:14,982
Some things I wouldn't,
but, to me,
718
00:27:15,082 --> 00:27:18,652
this continued obsession,
wrongly,
719
00:27:18,752 --> 00:27:21,688
in an untrue way,
that the election was stolen
720
00:27:21,788 --> 00:27:23,824
is just...
is just something that...
721
00:27:23,924 --> 00:27:25,492
Well, it's fundamentally eroding
the country, right?
722
00:27:25,592 --> 00:27:27,494
I can't be supportive.
723
00:27:27,594 --> 00:27:29,129
Unless there's something
you can prove in court
724
00:27:29,229 --> 00:27:33,066
that went wrong, and he tried
and he couldn't, 60-plus times.
725
00:27:33,166 --> 00:27:34,268
-Right.
-Right?
726
00:27:34,368 --> 00:27:37,037
Then you've got to be a grown-up
about it
727
00:27:37,137 --> 00:27:39,072
and say the other guy won.
728
00:27:39,172 --> 00:27:41,742
Like, look,
Al Gore in 2000 fought it hard,
729
00:27:41,842 --> 00:27:44,511
all the way to the United States
Supreme Court, but when he lost,
730
00:27:44,611 --> 00:27:46,947
he looked in the camera
and he said,
731
00:27:47,047 --> 00:27:50,150
"George W. Bush is the president
and I'm conceding."
732
00:27:50,250 --> 00:27:51,685
It's the peaceful transition
of power
733
00:27:51,785 --> 00:27:53,887
that has defined America's
democracy for that long.
734
00:27:53,987 --> 00:27:56,590
And that's what he didn't do,
what Donald Trump didn't do.
735
00:27:56,690 --> 00:27:59,359
-Yeah. -And that's
why I got so angry about it.
736
00:27:59,493 --> 00:28:01,261
The last part of this book
is what I find interesting.
737
00:28:01,361 --> 00:28:02,763
"Saving the Republican Party,
738
00:28:02,863 --> 00:28:05,165
also, from the dangerous
policies of Joe Biden."
739
00:28:05,265 --> 00:28:07,034
-Right.
-Now, you argue in the book
740
00:28:07,134 --> 00:28:11,571
that the problem with Joe Biden
is that he ran as a unifier,
741
00:28:11,672 --> 00:28:13,774
and you say
that he hasn't done that.
742
00:28:13,874 --> 00:28:15,475
-What do you mean by that?
-Well, what I mean is
743
00:28:15,575 --> 00:28:16,910
that he ran
not only as a unifier
744
00:28:17,010 --> 00:28:18,111
but as a moderate, right?
745
00:28:18,211 --> 00:28:19,947
Remember, he was the guy
in the primaries
746
00:28:20,047 --> 00:28:22,316
that Kamala Harris
and Cory Booker
747
00:28:22,449 --> 00:28:25,152
and Bernie Sanders and
Elizabeth Warren were all saying
748
00:28:25,252 --> 00:28:27,554
-wasn't liberal enough. He was
too moderate. -Right. Mm-hmm.
749
00:28:27,654 --> 00:28:29,556
Now, all of a sudden,
his policies are way left.
750
00:28:29,656 --> 00:28:31,358
Well, but is it
all of a sudden though?
751
00:28:31,458 --> 00:28:32,726
-Yeah. -If you remember,
he did say at some point,
752
00:28:32,826 --> 00:28:34,461
"If I win,
we are going to put forward
753
00:28:34,494 --> 00:28:35,896
"some
of the most progressive policies
754
00:28:35,996 --> 00:28:37,531
-this country's ever seen."
He did say that. -(stammers)
755
00:28:37,631 --> 00:28:39,199
But-but he didn't campaign--
756
00:28:39,299 --> 00:28:40,834
The theme of his campaign
was not that.
757
00:28:40,934 --> 00:28:42,569
He was gonna bring
the country back together.
758
00:28:42,669 --> 00:28:45,672
You can't unify the country
by going way left or way right,
759
00:28:45,772 --> 00:28:48,175
because most of the country
is not way left or way right.
760
00:28:48,275 --> 00:28:49,343
But what we can't deny
761
00:28:49,476 --> 00:28:51,345
is that a guy
who was elected president
762
00:28:51,478 --> 00:28:53,347
-with over
300 electoral votes... -Yeah.
763
00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:55,482
...just, you know, a year ago
764
00:28:55,549 --> 00:28:57,818
is now in a situation
where his approval ratings
765
00:28:57,918 --> 00:28:59,319
-are in the low 40s...
-Mm-hmm.
766
00:28:59,486 --> 00:29:01,722
...upside down 12 or 15 points,
depending on the polls,
767
00:29:01,822 --> 00:29:04,224
and it doesn't seem to be
getting better anytime soon.
768
00:29:04,324 --> 00:29:05,492
And the real question is,
769
00:29:05,592 --> 00:29:07,728
Joe Biden at 78 years old,
770
00:29:07,828 --> 00:29:09,596
does he have
the political skills any longer
771
00:29:09,696 --> 00:29:11,131
-to dig out of that hole?
-Mm-hmm.
772
00:29:11,231 --> 00:29:12,866
And I think that's what we're
gonna have to wait and see.
773
00:29:12,966 --> 00:29:14,935
I don't know.
I'm skeptical about it.
774
00:29:15,035 --> 00:29:16,937
And I think
he'd have been much better off
775
00:29:17,037 --> 00:29:18,805
he had been the Joe Biden
that he had been
776
00:29:18,905 --> 00:29:20,240
all the years
he was in the Senate
777
00:29:20,340 --> 00:29:22,242
and tried to bring
the country together that way
778
00:29:22,342 --> 00:29:23,810
rather than try to be FDR.
779
00:29:23,910 --> 00:29:26,013
Do you think there was a Senate
to bring together though?
780
00:29:26,113 --> 00:29:27,447
'Cause this is the thing.
This is the issue I have,
781
00:29:27,514 --> 00:29:29,016
-just as a-- as an observer
of this thing. -Yeah.
782
00:29:29,116 --> 00:29:31,151
Mitch McConnell would always
say, like, "Well, we got to do
783
00:29:31,251 --> 00:29:33,020
-this thing together. We got
to do it together." -(laughs)
784
00:29:33,120 --> 00:29:34,922
And then what happens
when the time comes?
785
00:29:35,022 --> 00:29:36,223
He-he blocks people.
786
00:29:36,323 --> 00:29:37,991
He-- Like, Mitch is-is a genius
787
00:29:38,091 --> 00:29:39,660
-when it comes to knowing
how to, you know... -He is.
788
00:29:39,760 --> 00:29:41,228
...f-figure things out.
789
00:29:41,328 --> 00:29:43,630
So was there a Senate
to bring together?
790
00:29:43,730 --> 00:29:45,165
-Here's why I think...
-Like-- And I'll tell you--
791
00:29:45,265 --> 00:29:46,233
-I'll add on to this.
-Okay.
792
00:29:46,333 --> 00:29:47,601
Look at the Republicans now
793
00:29:47,701 --> 00:29:50,137
who voted
for the infrastructure bill.
794
00:29:50,237 --> 00:29:52,172
Thir-- Those 13 Republicans
who stepped in and said,
795
00:29:52,272 --> 00:29:54,374
"This is a bipartisan thing
we agreed upon."
796
00:29:54,474 --> 00:29:56,476
And now
Trump has come out against them,
797
00:29:56,510 --> 00:29:57,878
multiple Republicans have come--
798
00:29:57,978 --> 00:29:59,313
they said they betrayed
the party, but they're going,
799
00:29:59,479 --> 00:30:01,682
"No, it was bipartisan,
and that's how it got here."
800
00:30:01,782 --> 00:30:03,483
Well, let me tell you
the opposite side of that,
801
00:30:03,583 --> 00:30:05,218
why I think there is
bipartisanship available
802
00:30:05,319 --> 00:30:06,620
and the center available.
803
00:30:06,720 --> 00:30:08,522
Because in the Senate,
you didn't see that happen.
804
00:30:08,622 --> 00:30:10,924
19 Republicans voted
for that bill in the Senate,
805
00:30:11,024 --> 00:30:12,526
-including Mitch McConnell.
-Right.
806
00:30:12,626 --> 00:30:15,195
Mitch McConnell
voted for that bill.
807
00:30:15,295 --> 00:30:17,197
And so I think there is
a Senate that's available
808
00:30:17,297 --> 00:30:18,432
to be brought together.
809
00:30:18,465 --> 00:30:21,201
Um, and-and--
Look, not on everything,
810
00:30:21,301 --> 00:30:22,936
-but on this there was.
-Right.
811
00:30:23,036 --> 00:30:24,638
-Okay. -And what's going on
in the House, I think,
812
00:30:24,738 --> 00:30:27,207
is much more a-a symptom
813
00:30:27,307 --> 00:30:29,142
of the gerrymandering
that we have.
814
00:30:29,242 --> 00:30:31,445
-Mm. -Right? The Senate,
there's two for everybody.
815
00:30:31,545 --> 00:30:34,014
In the House, you've got
these gerrymandered districts
816
00:30:34,114 --> 00:30:35,949
where some of these people
are in far right districts
817
00:30:36,049 --> 00:30:37,451
or far left districts.
818
00:30:37,551 --> 00:30:39,219
All they're ever worried about
is the primary, Trevor.
819
00:30:39,319 --> 00:30:40,787
They're never worried
about the general election.
820
00:30:40,887 --> 00:30:43,190
And so they go running
in the other direction.
821
00:30:43,290 --> 00:30:44,625
Both-both parties.
822
00:30:44,725 --> 00:30:47,461
We need to stop this
gerrymandering in the country
823
00:30:47,494 --> 00:30:49,162
so that there's
more competitive districts
824
00:30:49,263 --> 00:30:51,331
so that people care more
about getting things done
825
00:30:51,465 --> 00:30:53,734
than they care
about just pleasing, you know,
826
00:30:53,834 --> 00:30:55,469
any one particular constituency.
827
00:30:55,502 --> 00:30:56,970
I definitely agree with you
on that.
828
00:30:57,070 --> 00:30:59,106
Um, thank you for the time.
Thank you for joining me again.
829
00:30:59,206 --> 00:31:01,375
-Thank you for having me.
-Congratulations on the book.
830
00:31:01,475 --> 00:31:03,310
I'm excited.
I hope you run for two reasons.
831
00:31:03,477 --> 00:31:06,246
One, because, uh,
you make things interesting.
832
00:31:06,346 --> 00:31:08,815
And, two, because you're one
of the few people who,
833
00:31:08,915 --> 00:31:10,884
on that stage, is probably
gonna say something real
834
00:31:10,984 --> 00:31:12,486
to Donald Trump.
So I really hope you do run.
835
00:31:12,586 --> 00:31:14,087
Well, thank you.
And, listen-- And you know
836
00:31:14,187 --> 00:31:16,356
I'll provide plenty of fodder
for you
837
00:31:16,456 --> 00:31:18,525
on your program.
So we're trying to help.
838
00:31:18,625 --> 00:31:20,661
You'll be on a beach one day,
and I'll be there to see it.
839
00:31:20,761 --> 00:31:22,029
-Thank you so much for being
on the show. -Thanks, Trevor.
840
00:31:22,129 --> 00:31:23,030
-Appreciate you.
-Great to see you.
841
00:31:23,130 --> 00:31:24,364
Governor Chris Christie's book,
842
00:31:24,464 --> 00:31:26,199
Republican Rescue,
is available right now.
843
00:31:26,300 --> 00:31:27,367
We're gonna take a quick break,
844
00:31:27,467 --> 00:31:29,136
but we'll be right back
after this.
845
00:31:31,715 --> 00:31:32,415
Well, that's our show
for tonight. But, before we go,
846
00:31:32,515 --> 00:31:33,650
Native American families
847
00:31:33,750 --> 00:31:36,853
suffer from food insecurity
and hunger daily.
848
00:31:36,953 --> 00:31:39,189
But the Native American
Heritage Association,
849
00:31:39,289 --> 00:31:40,924
with the help
of generous donors,
850
00:31:41,024 --> 00:31:42,826
is committed to fighting hunger
851
00:31:42,926 --> 00:31:46,596
with emergency food supplies
and basic life necessities.
852
00:31:46,696 --> 00:31:47,864
So, if you can,
853
00:31:47,964 --> 00:31:49,599
please donate at the link below
854
00:31:49,699 --> 00:31:52,002
to help Native American families
stay warm,
855
00:31:52,102 --> 00:31:55,505
safe, healthy and fed
this Thanksgiving.
856
00:31:55,605 --> 00:31:58,041
Until tomorrow,
stay safe out there,
857
00:31:58,141 --> 00:32:00,710
get your vaccine and, remember,
858
00:32:00,810 --> 00:32:03,179
don't just be one
of those people complaining
859
00:32:03,280 --> 00:32:05,115
about the oil supply--
860
00:32:05,215 --> 00:32:06,650
grab a shovel
861
00:32:06,750 --> 00:32:08,451
and be part of the solution.
862
00:32:08,552 --> 00:32:10,754
Now here it is,
Your Moment of Zen.
863
00:32:10,854 --> 00:32:12,222
That's right, I said it.
864
00:32:12,322 --> 00:32:14,224
The shizzle is rizzle now
865
00:32:14,324 --> 00:32:16,993
when it comes to messing
with Congress' subpoenas.
866
00:32:17,093 --> 00:32:19,062
The shizzle is "for rizzle."
867
00:32:19,162 --> 00:32:20,664
This is the second time
I've had to correct you today,
868
00:32:20,764 --> 00:32:22,399
-but that's okay. It's not
a big deal. -Wait, what did I--
869
00:32:22,499 --> 00:32:23,934
What did you just say
that I said differently?
870
00:32:24,034 --> 00:32:25,001
You said "rizzle."
871
00:32:25,101 --> 00:32:26,169
And what'd you say?
872
00:32:26,269 --> 00:32:27,337
"For rizzle."
