S2 Ep1014: Adam Kinzinger: Mortal Damage to the American Empire

Look, we can want to deport people that are here illegally. We can want border security. But you know what you don't need to do is do an ASMR video of dragging chains so that people can sit around and get their goosebumps up and feel like they're watching a patriotic video as families are torn apart and sent to Latin America. That is inhumane. That didn't do it. It was the financial stuff. Good.

But I'm glad you came around. So welcome to the team. I hope, though, in the future, maybe you actually care about decency and not just the finance.

Isn't that amazing when you think about it? Like this whole, oh, well, they were going to increase our tax rates is a fraction of what it's going to cost these people in losses. It's amazing.

A fraction of a fraction. And so, yeah, I mean, look, Portnoy... I guess there's part of me that, again, maybe I'm too young to be this old, but it's like, how is it that somebody like him is somebody we look to for how the political tone is going to go? This is a guy that drinks way too much. Nothing against drinking, but he drinks way too much.

And then he does videos where he's sitting on his beach house in Florida. And all he does on his videos is complain. It's all he does. This guy's like, literally, and I give him respect, he built something out of nothing. He was originally just passing out newspapers as a kid, basically, and started this company.

Frankly, Tim, my time in politics, this was a big annoyance of mine, is going to meet with people that are worth half a billion dollars or billions of dollars, and they sit with you and complain about the parts of government they don't like. And I always left there feeling like, wow. Money certainly doesn't make you happy because it doesn't make these people happy. Anyway.

I know a guy that is an independent oil producer and just worth a ton of money. And every time I met with him, he'd be complaining because oil is down to 68. He's only going to make however many millions this month. I'm like, bro, I'm hoping to make as much as you make in a month in an entire lifetime. Right. And I would be happy about that. I would be excited. But listen.

If it takes $7 million, the good thing I'll give Portnoy some credit for is it's much easier for him for his business to basically be a Trump bro no matter what. Because that's kind of what that group wants. When he does speak out, it has an impact. And I respect that. And I think when he spoke out about the signal chat, that was important as well. And so I will encourage him to do that.
