country can do well, we can create more for everybody. So if you have a growth mindset you don't really need to pretend when you're talking about what you want. I want to lower taxes. I want to get rid of regulations. It's just a growth mindset. And the Democrats are just literally just putting on performances trying to cover up the fact that their real motivation is just some kind of horrible hat…
← Previous segment →ethical or not was, who do you think it was? Of all the people in the world, who would be in charge of determining that Fauci's gain of function research in China was ethical? Well, it turns out it was his wife. That's the first time I knew this. So his wife, who I guess just got fired by Trump, she was the head of the NIH office of bioethics. So he was actually being evaluated by his wife for whether or not he was acting ethical or not.
What just happened? Did my light just go out? Hold on. Well, that's weird. That's the second independent light in my studio that just went out on its own while the other lights didn't go out. I'm pretty sure I'm affecting my lights today. I do that sometimes.
Well, according to ABC News, Robert F. Kennedy has cut more jobs at Health and Human Services than he wanted to. So some people will be hired back and those would have been called mistakes. Now how would you report this if you were ABC News? Would you report it as that dumbass? He should have used a scalpel instead of a hammer. And now he's made this terrible mistake and now he's gonna have to correct it. Let's hope he's smarter next time. Well, I would call that the low experience take.
Here's what an experienced person would say about that situation where big cuts were needed, big cuts were made, but then it went a little too far. So they have to back up and correct a few things. I would say that the view that he should have done it perfectly the first time is what very inexperienced people say about things. I'm no expert but I think you should do everything perfectly every time. What? That's what the Democrats with not much experience say, you know, who've never been in business, never done anything important. That's not a thing. You can't do something of that size and scale and do it perfectly on the first try. Nobody could do that. So don't even imagine that if he tried harder or used his scalpel that he could have gotten it exactly right the first try and gotten it done on time. If you had infinite time you still couldn't do it because if you have infinite time then forces working against you will have time to organize and thwart you and get in the way. So the best way to do this stuff is take your best cut at it, make some mistakes and then correct them as you need to. That's a perfect job.

e say, "Well, you had a choice of just doing it perfectly in the first place. Why didn't you just measure twice or thrice before you cut?" I mean there's a little thing that even says what you should do. Measure twice, cut once. Have you never heard that? I mean if you've heard it then I guess you would never make any mistakes. But it's a good thing that I'm cleverly telling you now with all my la…
