What is the highlight of human civilization?
Well, good morning and welcome to the highlight of human civilization. It's called Coffee with Scott Adams, and you've never had a better time. But if you'd like to take this experience up to levels that nobody can even understand with their tiny, shiny human brains, all you need is a cup or a mug or a glass, a tank or a chalice, a stein, a canteen, a jug or a flask, a vessel of any kind. Fill it with your favorite liquid. I like coffee. Join me now for the unparalleled pleasure of the dopamine of the day thing that makes everything better. It's called the simultaneous sip. And it happens now.
Go.
Now we're talking. Well, if you're thinking it's Saturday, so is Owen going to do his spaces? Not today. Spaces will be on Sunday after the show. There are Several stories in the news today about trans, and I'm going to ignore all of them, because I feel manipulated. You know what I mean? Every time I see a trans story of any kind, I think to myself, you know, it was only a few years ago there were zero, and then suddenly it's like one of the main things in the news. There's no way that's organic. And it's no way that's national news. All right, there's somebody who's trans and somebody called them the wrong pronoun. I don't care. No interest whatsoever in individual trans stories.
Why are plastic straws making a comeback?
Well, President Trump, the ultimate crowd pleaser, the man who can read the room better than anybody, says plastic straws are back. Let me tell you how genius that is. Plastic straws have to be one of the most popular things in the country. And everybody tried the regular ones and didn't like them. So the beauty of this is not just that it's popular. but it's visceral. See, this is what Trump does that you don't notice. When you think of the plastic straw, you can feel it, right? It's like a feeling. You can almost taste it. You can taste your beverage in your mind. So when he does this visual imagery that evokes taste and feeling, that's really strong. You can never forget that kind of stuff.
Now let's compare Trump saying plastic straws are back and you've got this whole visual image and you're happy about it. And it's not the biggest thing in the world, but it's absolutely what you wanted. Now compare it to Elizabeth Warren. who did a post in which she was talking about Doge and she's fighting against it. Now watch this generic, terrible communication. All right. This is from a post on Elizabeth Warren, Senator Warren. I often talk about righteous fights. Some kind of concept. Make no mistake. We are in one. A what? A righteous fight. Okay, that's nice and generic. I can't taste it, feel it, see it. I won't remember those words tomorrow. This fight will be long. Okay, you're telling me I'm going to feel bad.
Trump will continue to distract, divide, and demoralize. Okay, concepts, concepts, concepts. But when things get tough, again, you're telling me it's going to be hard. There is only one option ahead of us. There's never one option ahead of you. That's kind of dumb, even as a concept. Nevertheless, we must persist. You see what I'm saying, right? Let me give it to you back to back. Trump, I'm bringing back plastic straws. Got it.
Elizabeth Warren, I often talk about righteous fights. Make no mistake, we are in one. This fight will be long. Trump will continue to distract Biden to moral lessons, but when it gets tough, when it gets tough, there's only one option.
God, learn to communicate, will you? Learn to communicate. How in the world is she one of their strongest Democrats when she can't put a sentence together that anybody would want to care about? Meanwhile, ICE has, I guess, arrested 11,000 illegal migrants, according to the New York Post. So they're putting them in all kinds of different places. So that's just in the first 18 days. They got 11,000 mostly criminals who mostly would have reoffended because criminals reoffend. Did they basically get rid of, let's say if they reoffended twice a year, did we get rid of 20,000 crimes? That feels like a lot. I mean, I get that it's a big country and we have a lot of crimes, but 20,000 crimes? How are you not in favor of that? 20,000 criminals, especially the gangs?
