ust Google Healight, H-E-A-L-I-G-H-T. That's the technology. That is the UV light that's injected into the body via trachea, you know a ventilator-like device into your trachea. And that was in the news and around social media at the same time that Trump was talking about it. I had tweeted about it. I talked about it. It was a real thing. And he talked about it as UV light. He clearly was aware of…

The people resisting arrest and getting hurt they want to be treated right and they want to be safe and they probably want to live but they haven't decided. Because if you decide it's got the seller. So I can't tell you how many times over my career somebody has called me a sellout. Now let me summarize by saying that that comment sort of labels you as an idiot because you understand that public people are selling things for a living, right? That we're all selling something. What is selling out mean? Because you have my honest opinion. You know that I've probably lost a third of my income by giving my honest opinions. So what exactly is selling out?
I'll tell you what it means. Everybody who uses that term is so low on the awareness level as a human being that you're somewhere between stupid and all right. So try to improve your game. Criticism's great. I don't mind it at all. You know I've told you that a good criticism is like money in the bank. If somebody criticizes me in a way that I can change something and improve it I was like whoa, cha-ching. That's a good criticism. I'll take it. But Scott's selling out. I tell you it's such a low level of criticism that I just don't know how you can wake up and keep yourself fed. I mean really you're barely human at that level.
So I have a suggestion for all the conservatives who are tired of being called racists for just having an opinion on pretty much anything. And I'm going to get this. This comes from a classmate of mine in seventh grade. Her name was Debbie. I doubt she's watching this now. Debbie was one of the cute girls, you know the attractive girls who tend to be the mean girls because they can get away with it. You know they're popular and they're attractive. And one of the things that the mean girls did is and it was especially devastating at that age if you tried to talk to them and you were not one of the cool boys they would mock whatever you said this way. And I'll give you my impression.
So if a guy, say a seventh grade boy came up to Debbie or one of her friends and said hey Debbie would you like to hang out with me this weekend? Debbie would look at you and in front of her friends would say, oh you'd like to hang out with me this weekend? And she would just say what you said but like somebody with brain damage. And it was devastating because there's nothing you could do to it. You just shrink away. You're like all right. You just get out of there. It's just absolutely devastating.
And I was thinking about it because you know every day CNN is blaming a Fox News host of being a racist for one thing or another. And it would just be hilarious if the way all the conservatives handled those accusations is the way Debbie did. So that when you know let's say Jim, whatever his name is on CNN. So let's say he's doing an opinion piece and he says that cartoonist has said this or that and so he's a racist. And my response would just be, well Jim, Jim

had a quote today he said. Oh Jim Acosta. Yes. Jim Acosta said. And just leave it there. Don't even deal with the facts. Just go for he's a racist. And just every time they say it just do the same Debbie mean girl and just leave it there. Never ever deal with any of the content. You know that mocking is powerful, right? If you haven't been mocked by a 14-year-old girl when you're a 14-year-old boy…
