I'm a lifelong Democrat, but I could listen to these two all day. Scaramucci is remarkably tough, a clear communicator, and calls bullsh!t on both sides. I never imagined I'd appreciate the words of a Trump staffer this much. But taxing the rich isn't going to stop them from investing. What the hell are they going to do with their money if they don't invest? Anthony is just parroting the rich propaganda message that wealthy broadcast so we don't tax them. It's the sequel to "trickle-down economics," which is also a smoke and mirrors lie.
Maybe you should expand your horizons and get out of the echo chamber a little more. You might be surprised what happens when you don't follow what the corporate media tells you to think.
@@JANSENM9 Well, that doesn't relieve them of the obligation to pay taxes in the U.S. But, if they want, they can leave the USA with their money, renounce their citizenship and become a citizen of somewhere else, and permanently piss off. Assuming some other country would have them.
Frankly, Trump is such a dastardly man I would vote for a ham sandwich over him. Kamala is doing fine...but even if she makes blunders...at least she is not a psychopath.
I agree - on a spectrum ... narcissism --> malignant narcissism --> psychopath. The diffs between malignant n. and psychopathy: There is some over-lap between narcissism and psychopathy, but they are not the same. Psychopathy is composed of strong vitality and self-interest and a functional lack of feeling. That is, unlike narcissism, where feeling is denied but continues to have some sort of 'shadow' or 'reactive' effect, in psychopathy, the person is 'freed' from any guidance function of emotions. In psychopathy dominance and getting one's way are paramount, and how one is viewed by others is not important for its own sake, but only as a tool. Psychopaths are most upset by not getting their way, while narcissists are most upset by being devalued or ignored. Narcissism can be present with depression or 'collapsed states, while this never happens with psychopathy. But psychopathy and narcissism may occur together and form 'malignant narcissism', which is the florid form of narcissism most recognised (and feared) in popular culture.

And his peasants with a camera guy who assaulted an employee. But now to the important part. I hope visiting brings back some good memories of meaningful and fun times together 😊
@@James-hd4ms As distasteful and insensitive as Trump is, that photo of him with a big-ass grin, thumbs-up, while standing on the grave of a solider that made the ultimate sacrifice to his country was truly a new low. I still can't fully absorb how and why someone could do such a thing.
You do know that "WISE UP" is not going to persuade anyone to change his/her pov & therefore, vote against djt. , right? Insinuating that someone is stupid never works to convince him/her that the water is warmer & healthier on your side of the aisle. But then, I ought not assume that you're interested in persuading anyone to dump Trump or get off the fence & land on the side of sustaining democracy.
Sadly, not in Alabama where I live. Women do what their husbands tell them to do. They wouldn't even notice the difference if Project 2025 comes into play.
Taxes go to the government to spend on the country. People have to realise this obvious fact. Taxes pay for infrastructure, (roads, bridges, buildings, repairs from floods and fires), railways, Medicare, the list is long. Taxes keeps a nation running.
They do, but governments don't always spend money wisely. As a Brit I have no problem paying 40% tax but when it's wasted, as billions was during the Covid crisis, you begin to question those making the spending judgements.
@@matthewgee8122 "... but governments don't always spend money wisely" Neither do individual citizens, anyways. Also, something else that Scaramucci apparently doesn't realize is that without the existence of the State and the social contract it guarantees (and the market it creates), he wouldn't make even a tenth of what he makes now, so 52% plus investment taxes means he and his venture/cripto capitalist bros are actually getting off easy.
@@matthewgee8122that's true but the government needs to punish the businesses that have contracts with the government and cheat or gouge them on prices, people bitch about Walmart and how they run but they simply won't purchase your goods to sell through their stores if your product isn't at the right price they will get it from someone else, capitalism is awesome when it's in its truest form multiple business completing for our dollars which drives down prices and drives up wages, problem is for several years now business conspire to keep their prices fairly equal to one another that is not capitalism
Every where I go people are watching FOX News. In many areas FOX News is simply the news. Harris/Walz needs to flood FOX with TV ads as much as possible.
That makes as much sense as Trump putting ads on MSNBC. You can't win over partisans from the other side. You have two viable options: appeal to the moderate independents, or rally a base of ideologues.
In the early 1960's the tax rate for millionaires was 91% ..I didn't notice any disincentive for amassing great wealth for individuals since then..bs argument
@@Coops5361 Because Confirmation Bias and money are 2 pieces of the same puzzle. ESPECIALLY where personal finance is concerned. . If He says "I cut taxes last time!!!" A percentage will believe him *even if they actually lost out* !
@@rogerstarkey5390Thanks. It's bizarre, but not entirely unbelievable. What if anything do you think the Dems can do to take charge of the narrative on the economy?
Regarding Brian Kemp and any of the other countless Republicans that Trump has turned on... I don't understand these "men" that are okay with Trump talking disparagingly about their wife. That would be a line in the sand for me, and should be for any person. You go after my spouse, my family, I will never come back to you. Kemp, Cruz, Rubio, McConnell, Haley, and the list is literarily endless. Shame on these people!
It makes me so unbelievably sad that a sizable portion of our society actually believes in the absolute bs that Trump says and what he purports to stand for.
I agree with you . They are angry because their life isn’t what they think it should be but not willing to work hard enough to achieve anything many are 3rd and 4th generation gov assistance folks who want hand outs. They are so angry at government they can’t see that Trump with all his BS has and will never do anything to help them they just like his big talk. Makes them feel good about getting back at people. The highly educated are just wanting power and favors for the donors to keep them in their jobs. Don’t know how any of these people profess to love and follow Christ ways!!
Trump just said he would reduce energy prices by 50 percent. Sure, he'll just mandate energy business leaders cut prices in half. People actually believe the lies he tells every day? He insists new jobs are going to immigrants, all 107% of them. He's so deranged.
I love Anthony but I think he is wrong about the taxes. His argument sounds like trickle down economics which only the rich non tricklers actually believe has worked for anyone but them.
Yep. He, like all the rest of the investor class are just out for themselves, the rest of the workers be damned. And it’s not an “aspirational country”. Nobody believes that Reagan-era get rich nonsense anymore…
They sound like they are in the politico bubble. The US has the best performing economy in the world. How do these guy’s figure that Kamala has to distance herself from that fact? Affordability is the issue not the wider economy.
You have some comfort in knowing you're right to do so in voting Harris. Trump is taking the USA out of America and replacing it with some sort of quasi soviet style government
I don't think it's landing, though. Something about the way she delivers her message on the economy isn't coming across as convincing, but I can't put my finger on why.
@@seriousbutfunny2By itself. It needs part of a larger vision of a caring society, a stronger social fabric or social contract that involves health care and education and voting rights and a healthy planet. Whatever happened to that? I thought she was heading in that direction! How is she ever going to win the argument if she doesn't make it?! What would a strong offense look like for her?
@@liedersanger1 The BIG trouble with America? You need, I mean NEED "a caring society, stronger social fabric and social contract" But The MOMENT you say that, it's portrayed as first "socialism', then "sudo communism" and that's meat and drink to the "unenlightened". . But without SOME kind of such change, USA is screwed. (Probably is anyway.... and you can't blame China)
Exactly! The voters who want democracy don't care if she has an interview. I mean she could go into an interview and sing Whitney Houstons I'm every woman, and those who want democracy will vote for her.
You could say the same thing about trump supporters. He said it himself. He could shoot a gun on fifth avenue and not lose a single supporter. Let’s hope a lot more people vote for democracy! Vote Blue!
Absolutely cracked up about the fly landing on Pence’s head. Your sense of humour is great. My god we need a laugh with this lunatic running for office again 😅
1. These advances are mostly still within a 3% margin of error, the standard error of the estimate, due to the small sample sizes. 2. People indeed do change their minds last minute - I agree with the Mooch that most people have already made up their minds.
@@christopherbrowne736 ... the amount of likely voters participating in most published surveys are way too small. A polling survey in a tight race should be between 3500 to 4300 people. But the cost a lot of money and time to make them.
True enough, but people know that Trump will bring tax cuts and deregulation, and they will experience an economic boost from that. His approach to spending, pollution, trade wars, foreign affairs, etc, might be bad for the economy in the long run, and the current inflation probably isn't the fault of the current administration, but most people aren't keen to those things.
I think Trump is a tool. He's up for sale. I am sure that JD Vance is his Vice President for a reason. Peter Thiel as well as other very wealthy influencers told Trump that he will be choosing Vance. Vance is there to make sure their interests are being taken care of. That's why you're seeing Trump changing his mind on crypto currency. Trump just wants to stay out prison. These boys know it and they're happy to use him. And Trump is happy taking their favors.
You've lost your crowd. Speak to the people listening, not your rich friends. I get it that Katy and Anthony are rich, but very few people in the US struggle w taxable gains - other than salary!
You make a good point. I'm a Brit from across the pond and our pundits do the same thing in always addressing the affluent or the white collar and then wondering why the lower paid and struggling fail to go out and vote. It's because they don't feel they have skin in the game.
As long as I draw breath, I will never understand why people will vote for Trump. Every single day he tells lies, he slams the injured or dead veterans by calling the suckers and losers, he is an alleged racist, womanizer, was a buddy of Jeffery Epstein (disgusting), he wanted to date his daughter, he is a CONVICTED FELON, his stance on women’s reproductive rights is very concerning , he has corrupted the Supreme Court in his favor, he has allegedly incited an insurrection that resulted in death (court case pending on that), and that’s what we know. Seriously??? I know that nobody is perfect, but some people want this “Orange Jesus 🤡 figure sent by God” to be the leader of the free world. Wake up! Trump is only interested in avoiding further criminal prosecution and jail time.
Scaramucci's complaints about taxes are actually sickening. Does anyone think that if he's taxed on his investment gains there will be any qualitative change in his life? Of course not - he will still ride his lambo (which he likes to brag about) and do everything else he already does, just with a little lower numbers on his bank account receipts. It's nothing but greed. He complains about the 52% taxes, but if it wasn't for the existence of the State and the social contract it guarantees (and market it generates) he wouldn't be able to make even a tenth of what he makes now - so if anything he and people like him are getting off easy. And any talk about those taxes remaining as investments bringing more jobs and creating wealth for other people is pretty naive - most of the money invested will go to top executives and shareholders anyways, while as taxes it will actually be used to promote social programs that will help those who are most vulnerable and move the real economy. I'm glad he's at least anti-Trump, but that doesn't mean he and his venture/cripto capitalist bros are not beneficiaries of and help perpetuate, if not increase, wealth inequality.
The WSJ is crap and so is Dana Bash. Those questions she asked were straight out of the tabloids. Harris and Walz were classy and dignified but CNN has devolved into trash.
Especially with Jennings and Byron on it. Isn’t the CEO of CNN a Trump doner?I notice Tapper and Bash are very low key in their criticism of Trump and Vance.
@@AngofarDon't recall his name ( Martin?) But he is a big bucks donor to Dumpster campaign and is a conservative, large stock holder in Warner Brothers> CNN
It's unfathomable that so many think Trump will be best for the economy. How many failed businesses does he have? You can't treat our economy, both short and long term, as a simple transaction. You can't just keep giving rich people tax cuts, not stopping spending and losing jobs and have a healthy, inclusive economy. I don't know how much more Kamala can say about the economy than she is. The economy is great; cost of living is not, and that is her main focus in addressing the economy. Unfortunately, too many people believe the garbage that Fox and the other talking R heads spout that is just not true. Everything you're saying, Anthony, is that people stay close to Trump for their own personal wealth. Nothing about ideals and what is good for this country. Many retired Republicans are staying silent simply because they don't want to mess with their cushy jobs and payrolls. It's not even about being Republican, because many of them detest Trump and what the party is these days. But they stay quiet. That this is acceptable as a way of doing business is sickening and certainly not patriotic when we're talking about the health of this nation. Trump not only wants to win, he needs to win to stay out of jail. That more people aren't disgusted by Trump being Trump when he gets particularly vulgar and demeaning is frankly scary. It's what has many of us looking at overseas property. Being a risk taker, as you refer to it Anthony, appeals to the lowest knowledge and misogynistic of voters and that there is so much of it is disheartening. You normalize his horrible behavior and low character. THAT is the problem with all of this. Overseas with our real allies - at least at this point - Trump is an embarrassment. His lack of knowledge or care about foreign affairs will ruin this country. Republicans have not stood up to his missteps, and the Supreme Court has basically declared any President a dictator. That is dangerous. Question. You acknowledged that the Press covering everything that Trump says and does, no matter how awful, is partly why he does so well. Ratings are more important than truth, character and honesty. So why was this podcast so heavily slated to him? Aren't you propagating the same climate that allows such an awful individual to be doing so well? I agree with you, Anthony, about how Kamala should prepare for the debate. That said, women always seemed to be judged differently if they're a bit aggressive. She has a finer needle to thread., especially since the nation and the press have normalized Trump's behavior. I have a real disrespect for all of the politicians that Donald has attacked, has targeted their families and wives, and literally bow down to them without any response, and give zealous defense to Donald. Can we please talk about men getting where they get by getting on their knees?! Loyalty to the Constitution should be far more important than loyalty to a Party. Parties have gone off track throughout history and our laws and constitution is the constant... at least for now. Sorry so long. You inspired me. :)
The entire country is racist, but the negative view of her isn't primarily due to race. Over the years she has not done a good job presenting herself as particularly competent. The DNC was a good step forward for her in that regard, but she's slipped from that in recent days.
Everyone who cares already knows. She needs to attract independents and moderates, and slagging off Trump isn't going to do that. She needs to focus on economic issues
As a college trained graphic designer who never made more than $100,000/year, I seriously doubt many citizens are going to give a flying f*ckabout tax increases for the $100,000,000 crowd.
I personally would love them to start paying their share lower taxes for people making 250000 and less,go back to taxes like around the 1950s , this would get rid of a lot of economic problems
@@Richard_Fouts yeah at the end of every any gain,money making money should be taxed long before a human making money, very few humans have the luxury of investing money to make money and have capital gains to tax
@@Richard_Fouts You don't understand how people 'invest' to get unrealized gains and monetize them without ever 'realizing' them. There are some wonderful tax avoidance strategies available.
The catch is folks' aspirations. "When I get Rich, I don't want to pay this tax." The fact their chances of wealth are next to nil doesn't factor for many.
You'd be amazed at the army of $50k +/- earners in my facebook feed expressing outrage over increasing capital gains tax or implementing unrealized gains tax.
@@andrewdiamond2697 oh fine but we’re talking about taxing people with net worth of $100 million. As aspirational as people are, they’re also realistic enough to know that they will never fall into the category.
@@gaffs82 I'm telling you, Newsmax, Fox and OAN are leaving out that detail. My Trumper friends are reflexively outraged at the idea of a tax on unrealized gains, even though most of them don't know what that is.
@@andrewdiamond2697 that’s exactly what happens when you support a supposed billionaire who has only ever looked after himself throughout his whole life. They still didn’t get the message that he was only out to benefit the rich after the Republicans pushed through their corporate tax cuts. We all know what the Republican party is - they’re out to benefit the richest people in society, while trying to push the buttons of people who vote on issues such as abortion and guns. Every time they get in office, they raise the national debt screw up the economy then leave Democrats to fix it, only to point the fingers back at the Democrats because they happen to be holding the ball at the time of inflation or price hikes. Obama and Biden both did an amazing job getting the country back on its feet economically after Republican administrations.
@@andrewdiamond2697😂😂😂 And, they'll never realize that amount of money - which is taxed at a lower rate than the rest of us - They'll never "win the lottery" and Dumpster calls them "basement dwellers"!
Anthony, I love the work you are doing; you've come a long way in your career. Power to you. I too have been aspirational throughout my life. I have a PhD, am about to retire from a very successful career in higher education, have published works and have done many other things in my 66 years. Yet, I know that the chances of me or my family (or anyone we know) ever having $100 million dollars are none. Period. Not even close. There are 30,000 Americans out of 339 million who have $100 million. Yes, I want them taxed much more so that the rest of the country, the 309 million of us, can have better infrastructure, healthcare, education, transportation, etc. For you, taxing the wealthy is a losing proposal. For the rest of us, the inequality of our tax system is something we've been crying about for the last 40 years.
STOP SCARAMUCCI Scaramucci says he is going to help De Santis and/or Nikki Haley in 4 years with their campaigns. This guy is so gross. First he helps a fascist into power. Then regrets it. Then warms up for his next disgusting number of supporting the spawn. Good job, Scaramucci. You are part of the reason why we have this problem in our country. And btw, many countries tax the profits of investments. Whine whine whine.
America is an aspirational country but most people don’t think they would ever have or need 100 millions. Both of you are probably very wealthy, your views about tax is very different than ordinary people.
We dont care about New Yorkers, sorry…. MiddleClass wants rich taxed. Period. We want improvements, better jobs, progress. Don’t care as much about investments…..
After last night interview with CNN I was optimistic and happy. Harris and Walz did excellent job. Now I am really scared that SOB might win. Anthony I'll hold you to the promise you made a month ago.
I live in Western PA and the Democrats seem to ignore this area. The Republicans rule here and I am a Democrat and as a Democrat please invest in Western PA we Democrats are forlorn.
The WSJ, like most of the press, is on Donald’s side. He can do no wrong in their cheerleaders’ eyes. If they say anything positive about the Dems, we’d all be surprised.💙🇺🇸
Bear in mind that WSJ's editorial staff is particularly that way, AND WSJ is a Murdoch company. For those in Australia, enough said... As is the NY Post; these are not "just the Press"... They are just like Fox News, Murdoch's flagship. There are some good bits in that universe, such as the polling section, and parts of the news (non-editorial) parts are ok, usually, but Murdoch's biz model is to make money on
Things will change a lot at the Murdoch outlets the day Rupert dies; including the editorial staff at the Wall Street Journal -- a paper which has sunk into the crass yellow journalism of the Tabloids. This temporary situation will change dramatically post Rupert's demise since one of his previous early marriage contracts divides the portions of the acquired assets of NewsCorp amongst the four Murdoch kids; three of which are unsympathetic with the political valence of their father. 🚗 AUTO JAGRAF/X 🚗
I cannot under why voters don't get how good the US economy is. And yes, prices are high, but that's a worldwide problem. In Germany, I wish, we had recovered as good as the US has. It's outrageous painting the Biden/Harris economy as "failed", seriously guys.
Australia is in the middle of a cost of living crisis. The government has provided some relief but it’s still hard going for working people, seniors and welfare recipients.
Anthony is the smartest political commentator in existence right now, even if he does keep saying "flout" when he means "flaunt." There is no one in politics I'd rather have a long lunch and a couple beers with than Anthony, and that includes current and former presidents, governors, or members of Congress. He should be called The Trump Whisperer, he understands how Trump thinks and operates so well. I can't get enough of these two because I've always admired Katty Kay as well. She's probably the only one smart enough to hang with Anthony.
Love the podcast! I'm just at the beginning of this conversation and I had to comment after listening to 2 things. 1. Anthony talking about taxation on the wealthy. 2. Katty talking about Trump's edge on the economy. I was fortunate to retire with a pension from the state. It's decent, but not huge. After a year in retired status, I went back to work. Decent money. Not a ton, but 60k combined with my pension, I was happy. My tax bill last year was just shy of 7k! I live in New York state. I don't want to hear about any burden on millionaires and billionaires. There is a fair way to tax them without harm. 2. Just because Trump has a perceived edge on the economy, it doesn't make it true. There's a reason the race is as close as it is, even though one candidate is fluent in policy, and a decent person, and the other is a 34 time convicted felon and rapist. It shouldn't be close, but it is. These discussions imply that the vast majority of the voting electorate are basing their decisions from a place of nuanced understanding. And yes, while many people, myself included, have to make kitchen table decisions every day, I'm equally sure that those giving Trump the credit are likely doing it out of supporting HIM. Perception has NEVER BEEN reality. Perception has always been perception. I cannot normalize Trump in any sense of being an American president. You say economy. I say Project 2025.
Sorry, but Scaramucci's complaints about taxes are sickening. Does anyone think that if he's taxed on his investments there will be any qualitative change in his life? Of course not - he will still ride his lambo and do everything else he already does, just with a little lower numbers on his bank account receipts. It's nothing but greed.

Millionaire complaining about possible tax increase. Big effin' surprise. Millionaires have been increasing their revenues much faster than the low and middle-class salaried for decades. Government has to go get the money where it is.
It always seems odd to me that Scaramucci will call his ex-boss a dysfunctional narcissistic maniac in one breath and then constantly give him the respect of calling him MR Trump.
Interesting that rich ppl aren't "bad at maths", just "couldn't lie straight in bed". The 52% NYC thing is marginal rate after $25 MILLION in earnings. At $1 MILLION it's 10-15% maybe. So you've got $20m in your pocket in a year, before 'only' keeping half of your income above the $25m mark. Oh the suffering. 🤨
Yes there is slim possibility of me having 100millions of dollars in US nowhere else If I do I should be willing to pay taxes so more people can have the same access to more affordable schools, healthcare etc
I think it was reverse psychology regarding the mic. The democrats know that if they had not asked for this, then he would have. Now he will refuse, and this is what Kamala would also prefer.
You talk about the economy as if it’s separate from Capitalism. Capitalism is the reason why we have high prices and an affordability problem. Politicians can only do SO MUCH without changing the fundamentals of capitalism. In all honesty, WHAT CAN SHE DO FOR THE ECONOMY? What can ANY POTUS do?
It’s very ironic in that I was never a fan of Anthony. However I absolutely luv watching his content no matter what it is I have to watch. Especially this pod cast. Can’t deny that he’s super bright and personable and love to hear his opinions as well as his cohost. Great show guys.
You either have a bad accountant or are lying about taxation. It is common for corporate profit to be paid out through capital gains and thus, it is the most repulsive domestic policy that we allow fat cats to be taxed at only 15% when their secretaries and teachers and plumbers get taxed at 2-3 times that rate typically.
I don't think Kamala should not spend any time on debating the lies and bullying that will come from Donald. She should do maybe one laugh or one joke about Trump per opportunity but then talk about her own agenda and not let Trump set any agenda.
There is something really broken in a country where the nominee for President can demean the two most accomplished women HC and KH. Every woman and the mothers of children in US should vote this vulgar vile man out forever. Otherwise the next generation does not stand a chance. Those in the GOP who stay silent are every bit as bad. We are watching from Europe and hope KAmala wins. 💙
The latest national poll from USA Today/Suffolk gives Harris a *5 point lead* over Old Man Trump among likely voters. The same poll in June gave Trump a 3 point lead over Biden. Moreover, there's a been staggering *24 point swing* to Kamala since June among 18-34 year olds, an 18 point swing among Hispanic voters, and a 17 point swing among black voters.
Reality check. Unrealized gains OVER $100,000,000. Enough for 3 generations to not work...ever...in their entire lives at over the median personal income when invested conservatively and after paying realized capital gains taxes on the proceeds. Labor should not be taxed at more than single digits, if at all. Money making money should be at 30% plus. This country was founded in response to monarchy and lack of class mobility. The current tax system creates a natural (and accelerating) consolidation of wealth in the few. New aristocrats. The rich will burn as soon without changing this rigged system.
Anthony I adore you but we have you to blame for Scott Walker in Wisconsin???? Scott Walker was the candidate that made my father a life long Republican vote Blue!!! Scott Walker by far worst governor of Wisconsin.
The top tax bracket for Federal taxes is 37% not 52%, maybe Anthony was including state taxes and sales taxes? Anyway many wealthy people figure out ways to not pay or pay less taxes.
Democracy or theocracy is the only thing on this ballot. Stop getting picky about the damn details. She is a loyal American dedicated to all.🍊is not a loyal American and only interested in personal profit and those billionaires wanting more. Vote her in to ensure democracy survives.
I googled what America's inflation rate is. 2.9%. Donald says it's 19%. (Has also said 50% at some rally). So which rate is right? Google search engine or Donald Trump?
We have low unemployment, a record stock market, and inflation has basically totally stabilized and almost back to target. It’s under 3%. Mortgage rates are falling and rate cuts are coming next month. GDP was revised upward. Consumer spending and sentiment is strong I just don’t understand people’s perception of the economy not doing well.
Dems need a way better publicist / pr firm. I say that in jest, but they spend too much time on defense and not geeltting out the message of their successes.
I wish there was something like a quantum computer that could simulate well enough how the US would have fared in the past 4 years if Trump had won the election. He would not get a single vote besides maybe his own and Eric Jr's.
No one on earth feels sorry for someone who makes 100 million dollars having to pay taxes. That’s you misreading voters too. Also, she hasn’t lost the message on the economy. This is the second time I’ve remarked on the host’s inability to understand Harris’s approach to financial policy.
Excellent comment !! I like the Mooch (sometimes); however this Katti Kay woman, with her annoying clipped British accent, looks at “American” politics through the same lens as Peggy Noonan. Combined, their views and opinions are basically nothing but Republican leaning, upper middle class drivel.
23:12 - Debate: I think they outsmarted Trump, Trump might not have agreed to a debate in general - now Trump has a small victory and might feel stronger going into the debate, but Harris has the real victory (by having the debate and Trump is possibly “shooting himself in the foot” again by agreeing to a second debate)
I should say I am a labour voter lifelong and suspect neither of you would share that politics. But the rich have to pay. The superrich dont even notice the cost of living. How many yachts does one need. You know you gotta realise most of US and UK residents cant imagine the wealth either of you even have
Katty, There is a 2nd part to the topic you brought up brought up regarding trump running ads for 50K in Mar-a-lago. This is a response to George Conway running his PSYCHOPAC ads getting under his skin. He HATES those ads
By the way. Well done Anthony for paying 52% tax. I can assure you that very few billionaires pay anywhere near that rate of tax. Until the 80s the top tax rate was over 80%. and CEOs on average earned 20x the average salary of their corporation. Now it is more than 300x.
I like the "feathering in small" idea 🤣. I don't think she'd do it but it would be hilarious. They definitely need to throw a few jabs at his ego and insecurities. It shouldn't take too much to cause him to mumble out some unhinged rant.
POLICIES - REALLY? THERE IS ONLY ONE IMPORTANT ISSUE AND THAT IS FASCISM v DEMOCRACY. ANY THING ELSE IS JUST LIP FLAPPING TO FILL THE PODCAST SLOT. KAMALA! KAMALA! KAMALA! Vote Blue 2024. Democracy is the issue Anthony and friends.
Anthony please make a correction your 52 percent in taxes doesn’t go to Adams and Hochel it goes to Police, Public Hospitals, Nurses, Schools, teachers, firefighters, ambulance, roads, and much more it is deceptive of you to say it goes to the NY governor and to the NY Mayor
Scaramucci only looks like a nice guy because we're comparing him to Trump. He's still an out of touch venture/cripto capitalist vulture. I'll take his help while we fight the much worse Trump, but he's still one of the bad guys when push comes to shove.
I don’t know if it is a NY thing but Sometimes Anthony aggrandizes Trump a little too much for my confort. How in the world can any one explain Trump’s vile behavior other than calling it exactly what it is.
43:28: Sorry, but I understand why "the left" is going crazy. I too (and I'm not a "leftist") understand that it is absolutely sufficient to completely control the executive and the judiciary in order to eliminate everything democratic and constitutional-American and to establish an absolute dictatorship; the legislature is not needed to seize power.
