Somebody said you sidestepped income inequality. Why did I sidestep it? I just mentioned that it's impractical to simply transfer money to people, right?

How crazy are things going to get with a Supreme Court nominee next week? Well some of it depends on the nominee. I think we have to wait and see who the nominee is before we know how bad things are going to get. They use Roe versus Wade. Yeah, the Roe versus Wade argument is also a childlike argument because there's a little complexity here that's being ignored, which is even if the Supreme Court said well we're out of the business, it would get kicked to the states. The states would have to deal with the severe economic repercussions of changing their abortion laws. So it's not as simple as if a justice and Roe versus Wade gets overturned. I'm not seeing that happening.

Talk about the judge list. I'm not familiar with the judges on the list.

Did you see more Michael Moore? No I did not. I did see Michael Moore saying that he is crying about the children in the cages because he is a child in a cage metaphorically. Blaming the illegal alien parents, that too is a childlike view.

So let me say that the childlike view is not limited to Democrats because I just saw one go by that's what I would consider a childlike view. And that is that we should blame the parents for bringing these children who ended up separated from them. That's how children think. Specifically children say that the problem and the solution have to be the same. The problem is that these adults are bringing children. Everybody agrees that's the problem. But that doesn't mean that those same adults are the solution. What does it mean to say well it's their fault, I'm done? You know the world isn't that simple. It's our frickin' problem too. So just because they caused the problem doesn't absolve us from doing what we can do to lessen the impact of that problem. So if you're saying blame it on the adults, done, that is a childlike view that ignores the complexity of the situation.

What about the solo children? I don't know exactly how important that comment was. Shapiro on Maher, has he been there? Are you saying that he was there last night? I didn't watch it last night.

We could boot them back and immediately make it their problem. We could boot them back if we, again another childlike view, we can boot them back if we would like to be in violation of international norms about asylum. Because it turns out that some percentage of these people coming across have genuine asylum requirements and just kicking them back ignores that. Now if you're saying let's just kick them back and let's get rid of the asylum business for everybody all the time, I would say that's an adult view which you can agree with or disagree with. But if you just ignore the asylum issue and just say just don't let them in, it doesn't matter if they have asylum, you're not really part of the conversation. You're a child in a cage if you can't see the whole picture. You're asking your parents to build you an airplane out of wood that's sitting in the backyard.

Less than 20% have an asylum case but you've got to find out once they get here.

Thoughts on the guy running for Mexico? Well apparently the guy running for Mexico who is likely to win is talking about overwhelming our borders with folks and it could be that he is also using hyperbole. It could be he doesn't really mean that. But I think we have to treat it like he does because that's the sort of risk you don't want to not be ready for. You have to fix the source.

Yeah I don't know how much power we have to fix the source. If you're going to fix the source I think you would invade. Let's just walk this through. I was thinking about this the other day. So it seems to me that the problems with the countries that are sending immigrants to the United States is that they either have cartels or MS-13 gangs that are so powerful that that is causing the immigration. That people can't even live in their own countries. If that's true we should at least consider invading. And when I say invading there's a couple ways you could do that. One would be to legalize, let's say, what would you call it? Not bounty hunters but what do you call soldiers who work for money? What's the word for that? Mercenaries, thank you.

One of the things you could do is give a blank check to mercenaries and say look we'll even fly you over, we'll give you military support, just kill as many MS-13 and cartel members as you want and it's just like hunting season. Just go nuts. Just kill as many as you want and we'll maybe pay you per kill or something like that. Because right now the governments are weaker than the criminals. When the governments are weaker than the criminals and you don't want to invade and take over the government, drop some mercenaries in there and just have them take care of it. Because I'm pretty sure we could drop mercenaries in there who are far more trained and capable than the people they're hunting. And if they got surrounded or something maybe we could pull them out or give them air support or something. But I'll bet you could just drop a bunch of mercenaries behind their lines and just have them hunt, take down as many as they want.

I'm not saying that's the best idea in the world. I'm just saying that if anybody has a better idea, I like to hear it. Because consider all the alternative ideas. We'll just brainstorm for a moment. Yeah this isn't a topic I've thought a lot about.

If you were to try to help the economies of those countries because you think it's the bad economy that's why they're sending people here, you're missing the fact that a lot of them are leaving because of violence and you're missing the fact that the gangs and the cartels will suck up any money that comes into the country. So you really can't just help their economy because crime is the problem that's hurting the economy. It's making the government malfunction. It's causing people to flee. You have to go after the source problem.

And the source problem would have to be dealt with either by, well one of the ways you could deal with the gangs and the cartels, you can give money to the governments but the governments are probably owned by the cartels at least enough that that's not going to work. You give money to their militaries but the military is probably on the take or enough of them are that it wouldn't work. So you can't invade because we don't really want to be in the country-invading business. You can't help their government and you can't help their economy. What's left? Seriously what's left? You can't help the economy. You can't help their government. There's nothing left.

You can't invade. Mercenaries. Suppose you started dropping mercenaries to hunt their cartels. What would the governments of those countries say? Damn it, stop it. Of course most of them would be paid off by the cartels and the gangs to say that I suppose. But they would complain.

So right, of all the ideas there are a bunch of ones that just can't possibly work and there's one that's a terrible idea: dropping mercenaries in their country and supporting them with our military sort of on the down-low. It's a terrible idea. You're gonna get civilians killed. It's going to be essentially an attack on an allied country. You've got all these problems. But still might be the best idea. I'm just not ignoring that it would have a terrific cost as well as a terrific upside.

So yeah when I say allied countries I mean countries like Mexico which, you know, El Salvador, they're essentially in our sphere of the Americas allied situation. Not it doesn't mean they're in NATO.

Drones indeed. Drones could be part of helping a group on the ground. Now I would imagine that you could find, in fact check this for me, don't you think you could find lots of Special Forces types who would do this job? I don't think there would be a manpower problem. I feel as if we could get that done. There would be plenty of volunteers and if they had nearly unlimited American military support on the down-low perhaps, I feel like they could take care of this pretty quickly. And they could do things maybe that our military wouldn't do or couldn't do. And it's sort of there's some deniability there.

I think Eric Prince is out of that business isn't he? I thought he sold Blackwater. Does he still own Blackwater?

Do you think MS-13 watches my Periscopes? Well I certainly hope not but probably not. So if you talk about this idea later make sure you attribute it to Maxine Waters so nobody comes after me.

Why not use mercenaries on the border to do what? Kill immigrants? I don't even know why would you do that. Somebody I think somebody suggested a crypto coin to an ICO to fund mercenaries. But quite honestly, so I've given you a terrible idea. Supporting mercenaries in a neighboring country has got to make you uncomfortable right? Just the idea of it. But give me a better one. It doesn't have to be a detailed idea but can somebody suggest in the comments a better approach to getting at the source of the immigration problem? Anybody? Anything better than mercenaries?

Sensitivity training. Stop employers from giving illegals work. I don't think so. I don't think that's do nothing. Now remember if you were to simply stop them at the border or you were to police employers so that they didn't give work to them you would first of all be hurting American businesses quite a bit but you wouldn't be solving the problem, the root problem. And I suspect that as long as the root problem is not solved there will be enough employers who will illegally use them. But I will acknowledge by the way I will acknowledge that cutting off employers from hiring might actually make a difference. So let's say you did both.

Victor thinks that's what's happening in the Middle East. So Victor thinks that mercenaries are working in the Middle East. I don't know if we need mercenaries because we can operate in our full military way there so I just don't know why we'd need them.

Legalize the drugs. Well the cartels still have plenty of markets and plenty of clout. I don't know if legalizing the drugs would make much difference.

Hire illegals as mercenaries. Oh God that's so bad. Somebody said hire the illegal immigrants as the mercenaries. That's taking, that's making a bad idea worse. I mean ethically it'd be worse and effectiveness-wise it would be worse.
