I'm pretty open-minded.
You would have said exactly the same thing you're saying right now, that the escalation is likely not going to happen.
You want to know how I know?
500 people or 1,000 people, I wouldn't even say it's impossible.
I'm calling you a frog in a pot because you've said this to us 12 times over the past four or five years.
What exactly?
Maybe I'm- When we discuss like, there's no off ramp, the escalation is coming.
Your position is always, no, this time I think otherwise.
Like, could you just imagine, I love the time travel test.
going back 10 years and saying 10 years from now, Donald Trump will be in a second non-consecutive term where he will be deploying thousands of federal agents and the National Guard to various cities to arrest an estimated 10 to 20 million illegal immigrants.
In the process, he'll discover child slaves working on drug farms.
People will get shot.
Agents will get shot at, rammed, dragged, assassinated.
There will be terror attacks with rifles shooting at ICE facilities.
Then in one incident, a middle-aged woman will obstruct federal law enforcement
And in her attempt to escape, strike an officer who shoots and kills her.
Like, guys, we already know because we've done the time travel experiment 75 times or more on this show going back several years.
And every time we bring it up, the next step seems equally more absurd.
So I always preface it by saying maybe this will be the time where people say, whoa.
We've gone way too far.
