ed as a group what the starting time is and what the ending time is. You would not get this consistency if it were one person or a military thing or something that was trying to be unpredictable. But you would definitely get, let's do this from 4 to 11. Everybody good with that? Yeah, yeah, we know we have to do it at night. Don't want to go past 11. Yeah, 4 to 11 sounds good. So yes, we know it's…

es of Trump on the cover of Time Magazine, Person of the Year. Now if Trump had not been the Person of the Year wouldn't you kind of question whether Time Magazine had lost it? Because remember Time Magazine when they pick the Person of the Year they're not saying the person we love the most because I think Hitler and Mussolini have been on the cover. Just the most impactful one. Who else was close? You know you might say Elon Musk did more and that you could make a strong argument for that. But Trump did it in a storybook way like even more than Elon Musk's giant chopsticks catching a rocket which is like one of the most crazy awesome things we've ever watched in our lives. Still I think Trump's story was the more interesting one. I think they got this one right.

Meanwhile Bill Clinton, according to Breitbart News, he was talking to somebody in public. Oh he's on The View and he said he was open to discussing with Biden a preemptive pardon for Hillary before Trump comes in. I don't think there's any chance that Trump's going after Hillary Clinton.

And I'd be all for that if they knew they were acting illegally. Yeah I'm all for it. But even if it was a little bit illegal I think Trump would be the smart George Washington here to say you know what I hear what you're saying about Hillary Clinton but we can't go there. We just have to let that go because it'll pull the country apart and there's not enough upside. So I think Trump knows that and I've heard him talk in that form before. So I do trust Trump to not threaten Hillary. I don't think he'll threaten her because she's no longer much of a risk to him and it would be a ter

rible, terrible look after he got lawfared and lawfared and lawfared to just return the lawfare especially to a stale case because Hillary is not exactly on the top of the urgent things these days anyway. You want to hear about the most Biden thing that Biden ever did? I know it's a long list but the following is something that Joe Biden just did that you just, when I tell you, see if you cannot…
