m. But now we have learned according to Fox News that for Smartmatic to get the contract for LA, they may have been giving some let's say gifts to the local officials. Apparently they reportedly funneled dollars into quote a slush fund and that it provided the register recorder and clerk Dean Logan with quote business class travel, expensive entertainment, expensive entertainment you say, and othe…

When I see Swalwell go on TV frequently and make ridiculous claims, I do not tell myself, huh, he looks like he might be mistaken or have bad information. I never say that. He looks like he's lying. When Adam Schiff goes on TV, he doesn't look like he's misinformed. He looks like he's lying. And it just seems really obvious. And again, I don't say that about every member of Congress or every Democrat. It's not about them being Democrats. They are the designated liars. Jamie Raskin, whenever he's talking, I just assume it's a lie and that he knows it's a lie, not that he's mistaken.
So do Republicans have something like that? I mean, I realize that Trump is always in the hyperbole world and he's always exaggerating his accomplishments, etc., but that doesn't feel the same because Trump knows that we know that he's a salesman. So it's a little bit like we have an agreement with him. All right. Yeah. Okay. You can brag about that a little bit. It's good for the country. If Trump can convince the country that the US is now the hottest country and everybody should be making deals with us, it's good for the country. So I definitely accept that when Trump is exaggerating, it's just part of the process and it works and it unambiguously it works. But these Democrats, they just look like they're really bad liars and it just looks completely different. Like they're just making stuff up out of nothing.
Let's see what else we got here. And there's now worldwide calls for President Trump to receive the Nobel Peace Prize. I kind of like the fact that Trump is lobbying directly and indirectly to win a Nobel Peace Prize. So it makes it more like the Academy Awards. You know, to get an Academy Award, you have to do more than just make a good movie or be good at whatever you did for the movie. You have to sort of lobby for it, you know, kind of politic for it a little bit. And I don't know if that was ever the case for the Nobel Peace Prize. I thought people used to win these prizes without even knowing they were nominated necessarily.
But we do know that the following according to the White House, they put down a social media post on this that the following countries and/or leaders have recommended the Nobel Peace Prize for Trump. You got the prime minister of Armenia, president of Azerbaijan, prime minister of Cambodia, the president of Gabon. Is it Gabon? G A B O N Gabon. Gabon. There's a word I've never said aloud. Then there's Israel and Netanyahu. And there's the government of Pakistan. And there's the foreign minister of Rwanda.
Now, it's funny that it's the government of Pakistan but not the government of India when Trump allegedly was instrumental in getting Pakistan and India to stand down from their little conflict. But I think India's story is that Trump didn't really make a difference and Pakistan is saying that he did. So once again, does it matter if Trump is exaggerating the calls for him to get a Nobel Peace Prize? No, no, that's an exaggeration that works for him if he gets a

Nobel Peace Prize, but it also works for us because when he goes into the next negotiation, I want the people that he's negotiating with to say, oh, here's that guy who always makes the peace deal work. And then he has more chance of making it work because everybody just believes it will work. That will be extra important this week probably. We'll talk about that in a minute. According to, I saw…
