What does Obama say about homelessness in Los Angeles?
Tom, here's a question for you. Would Newsom be somebody you would consider on Obama's camp? On the Democratic side. Would you say Newsom is somebody that Obama would support You want to say something? Go ahead. No, I'm going to let you finish. Okay. Because can you play this clip, Rob, of Obama on a podcast that he's doing, asked about Newsom and homelessness. Adam, I know you got thoughts on this as well. If you want to play this up, here's Obama. Let's give proper credit to this podcaster because I think he does a very good job for the left. What is his name? Something, something. Brian Tyler. I'm not trying to be sarcastic.
How does the panel view Gavin Newsom's political future?
I think this guy's a player on the left. He does actually a good job. Brian Tyler Cohen? Yes, sir. Can you pull up his thing so people can see who he is? Hardcore Democrat, but with substance. Brian Tyler Cohen. Brian Tyler Cohen, that guy right there. Yes, so he interviewed President Obama. By the way, young guy, 37 years old. You got to watch these guys. They're going to be around for a minute. Go up, Rob, and play the clip with him. Yeah, go ahead. Watch this here. Go for it.
The other side does the mean, angry, you know, exclusive, us-them, you know, divisive politics. That's their home court.
Yeah. Our court is... You have the homelessness rap with Newsom? I don't know if this is where he's going to get to. Because with Obama, his pacing is so slow, he can take him 70 minutes to get to it.
That's not the old Obama, is it?
Specifically, Obama on homelessness, Newsom.
Go for it. Let's say here in Los Angeles around the homeless issue. I think morally, ethically speaking, it is an atrocity that in a country this wealthy we have people... just on the streets. And we should insist on policies that recognize their full humanity, people who are houseless, and be able to provide them the help and resources that they need. But we should also recognize that the average person doesn't want to have to navigate around a tent city in the middle of downtown. and that we're not going to be able to build a working majority and support for the resources that we need to help folks like that, whether it's drug treatment or temporary housing or what have you. We're not going to be able to generate support for it if we simply say, you know what, it's not their fault, and so they should be able to do whatever they want because that's a losing political strategy.
So what do you think he's saying? What do you think he's saying? I'll tell you what I believe is going on down there. It's very simple. First of all, this is not the sharp, precise Obama of 15 years ago. He's older. He still carries gravitas within the party. But let me tell you where Obama's connected. Obama and the DNC are still connected at the hip. And people have criticized me and said, oh, you're wrong, but I'm going to double down on it again. They do not see Gavin Newsom as their candidate. Some Dems do, but the core establishment sees a collection of hit pieces that Gavin Newsom will not be able to avoid when the game turns into the Super Bowl on the national stage. homelessness, the billionaires that left California, California, you know, Exodus.
By the way, you know what the number one city search by, number one non-Vegas city search when people are looking for houses in Vegas on Zillow or Redfin or wherever, it's from Los Angeles. 25% of the searches on Zillow or Redfin for homes in Las Vegas are from California. Wow. So, by the way, that's regular people with that million-dollar average home looking for $435,000 average homes when you compare the two areas. So the core DNC, and I've researched this, they see that hit piece. They see the tax hit piece. They see the billionaires leaving, going down to Florida. They see all that. This is not the guy they want. It may be the guy they end up with, but it's not the guy they want. They themselves don't believe he'll do good in Iowa or New Hampshire.
And whenever you stumble out of the gate in the primary, you look weak, asked Jeb Bush. I don't think that Obama is being sly here.
