What viral video of Emmanuel and Brigitte Macron sparked this debate?
Good evening, everyone. Well, yeah, that's me. The thing popped up again. Andy, what am I not good enough to be on camera? Like what is going on?
Sorry about that.
Hi, everybody. Welcome to Limit Live at 5. Thank you so much for joining us. Okay. You remember, I just sort of mentioned this this morning as we were doing the Hot Topics show, and I said, you know, the biggest scandal, this is a big scandal, just sort of jokingly, okay? And then, you know, I was away for the Memorial weekend. Hopped in the car. Tim is driving. I'm dealing with the dogs and like, you know, I could use a nap. It's been whatever. And hi, Gonzales, Louisiana. What's happening, Lakeisha? So I'm flipping through and I'm going through the news stations and the talk stations and conservative radio. And the biggest scandal on conservative radio is you want to guess? I'll give you guys three guesses.
what the biggest scandal on conservative radio is and the shit that they were saying about it. I was like, now, are they actually talking about Donald Trump or are they talking about Emmanuel and Brigitte Macron? Yes. Thank you, MJ. You got it. This so-called slap. Now, for a better word, this is a face smush. Okay, this is a face smush. Hi, Canada, how are you? Thank you so much for joining. Hi, Virginia, thank you for joining us. The French president, Kim Coleman, you're right. That is the biggest scandal in conservative media. And that's how you know all of this shit is a distraction because you know, by the way, since I last joined you, I think the Trump family, it is safe to say, has made hundreds of thousands, if not millions of dollars off of the presidency.
Okay, pretty safe to say. Reportedly, allegedly. How about that? And so, you know, I started listening to it, and I'm listening, Tim's driving, and I'm like, oh my God, I'm starving. And he's like, well, your favorite place is coming up, your favorite hamburger. And I'm like, pull into that drive-thru. Smush is right, says Kathleen Chapin. Yes. So we pull into the Burger King drive through with the dogs. They go crazy. You go through the drive through because they know somehow food. Oh, my gosh. Give me some. I just want I just want one French fry, dad. I just want one French fry. OK, so I'm listening. I'm listening. And then, you know, I'm sort of used to it. And I'm like, oh, my gosh, I can't believe this is the biggest thing.
And I'm sitting there listening and flipping through and also reading texts and emails and trying to do some stuff. And Tim is like, is this for real? Like, is this not... Are you listening to, like, a joke station? And I'm like, no. Got the Whopper Junior, Tom. You're right. I got a Whopper Junior meal. Sure did. I didn't eat... I had, like, two onion rings and, like, two french fries. And then the rest, I ate the entire Whopper Junior. No cheese. Cut in half. I know. Look... You can eat pretty much whatever you want. You just have to do it in moderation. So instead of getting a giant Whopper, I got a Whopper Jr. And then I just don't eat everything. That's it. That's what I do. Okay. So you would think with everything that's going on in the world, some incident that happened.
First of all, he's not our president. It did not happen in the United States.
How did conservative media react to the 'face smush' clip during Memorial Day weekend?
I think they were in Vietnam or something where they were. It didn't happen. in the united states and now it's like the biggest scandal one person one woman on the radio was saying well you know her makeup is too dark and and it makes her orange and she has the wrong foundation on her foundation should not be so orange and i'm like is she talking about donald trump the nerve of this conservative station that carries Donald Trump's water is complaining about someone with orange makeup. I was like, wait, what? And Tim said, this is why people are tuning out. As we have been like watching the numbers in media, watching the numbers on even here on YouTube and everywhere, like people tune out in the summer, but it appears like people started to not because they're like, I don't know.
They're bombarded with bullshit.
