u know, you can be brutal. You can be brutal if you think it doesn't — it's not even close, right?

Now let me ask you another question. Except for the part where I would never run for president because, you know, I don't want them looking into my life and tearing me apart. There would be a suicide mission. I could be president because there is a skill set for this sort of stuff that I possess. Matt Gaetz has that skill set like really, really good. But you know, he got taken down by the media so far. I don't know if he'll recover. But he doesn't have my level. You know, I would put Matt Gaetz as an eight and a 10 on communication, which is higher than almost everybody. But I am a 10.

I am a 10.

There are 10s. I think Trump's a 10.

Trump's a 10.

Absolutely. And let me be clear, it's not because of some genetic quality I possess. I'm not saying I'm good at this because I'm somehow born with talent. No, it's a skill. It's literally just a skill. You can study it. I've studied it. Anybody who'd studied it as much as me could do what I do.

Let me give you an example. The same problem. You know, let's take Mike Cernovich. By the way, if you don't know, I use him for all my examples for some reason. He fits every example like story. I don't know why, but there's something about the nature of him that he fits lots of stories. If Mike Cernovich wanted to be president — again you'd have to subtract out whatever, you know, things the press would talk about in his past. So neither he nor I are really legitimate possibilities for the president. But does he have the skill set to do what I just told you Matt Gaetz should have done? Yeah, he does. How much would you like to have seen Mike Cernovich answer Jamie Raskin's question in public? It would have been different. It would have been different. Yeah, you can talk about all the reasons that he or I are unqualified for other reasons. But communication-wise, he's a 10.

All right. Supply chain. Yeah, Trump would have fixed this by now. I feel like there could have been a warp speed version for trucking. I do think that the number one reason I get for the supply chain problems is that there aren't enough trucks and truckers. You don't think Trump would have already spun up a warp speed for trucking? And how hard could it be? How hard could it be to do warp speed and say, well, we got a problem here, but in three weeks you can have a ton of trucks and truckers. There are definitely enough unemployed people who want jobs. You could definitely temporarily give them emergency pay to make it worthwhile. You could definitely get people who would be willing to be trained because, you know, maybe the training is free. Because right now I think you have to — oh, correct me if I'm wrong. I need a fact check on this, everybody. I need a fact check on this. Trucker school costs money that people don't have. In other words, there are a lot of people who want to be truckers but they can't afford it because the trucking school costs money.

How do I know that? How does Scott know that trucking school costs money and the people who might want to be truckers don't have that money? The reason I know that is I once paid for somebody to go to trucking school. Do you know why I did? Because there was no way in the world that he ever could have gotten the money together. That's right. So I've actually paid — I don't know if he went. I remember I offered, but offered to pay for somebody to go to driving school because it wasn't a problem he could solve. Couldn't figure out how to make money to make money. So I thought, well, I could get you kickstarted. And I don't remember how much. A few thousands. Does somebody have a number for that while we're here? Can somebody do a little research and put it in the comments? What does it cost to go to trucking school? I see 3k. I see 15. It wasn't 15. And I see 5k. My memory was 5k. I'm seeing 5k more than anything else.

How many truckers can spend — how many people who are unemployed or looking for a new job could spend 5k to get a job that might be temporary and doesn't sound too good in the first place? How hard a problem is that to solve? Not hard. It's one executive order and it's one emergency funding, you know, in the short term. No, seriously. Let me back up and ask the question. You don't think Trump would have solved this by now? I mean, I'm not sure I quite understand the problem, which is also part of the problem. But if any part of it is that we don't have enough trained truckers, I'm pretty sure that would be solved by now. Just pay them to go to school and that would probably do it. Just pay for the classes.

Now there is a secondary question of enough trucks. California has some kind of environmental rule that sort of mothballed a bunch of trucks. Could any of those trucks be put back in production temporarily? Probably. You know, maybe they have to steal parts from one truck to build a good truck. You know, one good truck out of three. But I feel like these are all things you could do with an executive order and a big wallet. So you know, there's no way to know that Trump would have done a better job on this, right? But here's the things we do know. He would have probably fired somebody's ass by now, right? And the country would feel good about that because we kind of need to see somebody get fired. Like it's not like I have some kind of bloodlust, and I don't even have a bad feeling about Buttigieg. I think he has a lot of talents. There's a lot to offer, I think. But I think he probably should get fired if he was the one really who should have been doing any of this or recommending it or writing the EO for Biden to sign. You know, nobody's even writing an EO for him to sign.

Do you know how the Trump executive orders got written? Different ways, right? But generally people who understood things and needed something and said, all right, well we'll write you a first draft. Obviously, you know, lawyers look at it, but we'll just write you the first draft. It needs to look like this. Lawyers look at it. President signs it. Who's doing that for Biden? Who is giving Biden executive orders, first drafts that says, look, you know, this could be good if we put this in. Good order. You know, get it
