ing a cost penalty. And if you add robots to the idea that you should start from first principles when you build your factory, don't just build an ordinary factory but really really think what's the efficient way to build the factory for this specific thing. So I think that's true. I think that whatever we learn from factory building that's where the next revolution needs to happen for America to…

They really really should have talked to, well first of all they should have talked to Americans you know regular people, but secondly they should talk to a hypnotist not one of the pundits who got everything wrong. If you talk to a hypnotist I'm pretty sure we can sort things out. Maybe not every hypnotist but I'm pretty sure I could. I'll tell them exactly what they got wrong. There was a lot. And part of the reason it's not easy to figure out what they got wrong is that it was everything. It was everything. They got everything wrong.
And then you say to me no Scott they did a really good job of raising money. And then what happened to it? They didn't do a good job of handling money. So raising is impressive but it's what you do with it that's kind of makes a difference. And apparently they didn't do the right thing with it. They didn't have the messaging right. They didn't have the candidate right. They didn't have a process for picking the candidate that even their own side thought was reasonable. The fake news was lying and getting caught. She didn't do interviews with the major media because she was incapable. Can you give me an idea of what they did right? It was literally everything wrong.
Now unfortunately for them Trump ran what is in my opinion might go down in history as the best campaign of all time. His campaign was just freaking awesome. Like he got all the messaging right. He got all the communication right. He used the alternate internet right. He got everything right. So you know the summary is that the strongest persuasive candidate in history was running against the weakest worst candidate in history. You don't really need to form any kind of a you don't need to have a convention to talk it out. It was everything. And as soon as they think you know if we just change our messaging so it sounds more like Trump I think we could win. It's so weak. No you can't win by pretending you're the opposition. You're the weak version of the other team. That's going to be your new strategy? And people are saying that out loud like they think it's a good idea but it's as good an idea as their last ideas which showed they were wrong about everything basically in politics anyway.
One of the biggest changes I think and the reason that Ross was noting you just have to tell the Democrats who they like they'll vote for them is many of them of course were voting against Trump. So you just have to say hey we've got a warm body that's not Trump and then people like yeah warm body that's not Trump. You had me at warm body. No you had me at against Trump actually.
But it seems to me here's my take on Trump. How many times did he toy with running for office before he got serious in 2015? Twice or three times. There he had at least two kind of flirtations with running for preside

nt that people thought oh in retrospect he was just drumming up publicity. And then this third time I think it was the third time he runs and what did everybody say? They said oh he's not serious he's just drumming up publicity he's just a clown trying to get some attention maybe. Here's what I think happened. I think in all three cases Trump did not expect to be a serious player. I think in all…
