In this episode, host Reggie Rocco delves deep into the complex dynamics between Elon Musk and Donald Trump, uncovering the layers of influence and money that drive political decisions. Joined by his producer, Lukey Luke, they discuss how public personalities navigate the multifaceted world of politics, where morality and money intertwine intriguingly.
SPEAKER 07 :
Oh, yeah. Yeah. What’s up? What’s up? What’s up? You tuned in to 560 KLZ. KLZ. I’m a Uniter. I’m a Uniter. I’m your host, Reggie Rocco. Yeah. Yeah. KLZ. Yeah. Yeah. So right about now, we want everybody, I mean everybody, stand up. Stand up. Hold your hands up high. Lock arms. This is about America, baby. We bringing people together. I’m a United.
SPEAKER 05 :
One nation under God, indivisible.
SPEAKER 08 :
Woo! 560 KLZ. I’m United. This is Reggie Rocco. Of course, I’m with the greatest producer on the planet, Lukey Luke. What’s up? Oh, what’s going on, Reg? Lots, man. I’m not too happy, buddy. No, no. I mean, before the show even started, we were getting a little doom and gloom. Yeah, yeah. I think this is going to be an episode, one of your episodes, buddy. One of mine, huh? Golly. So let’s get it kicked off. What happened to the bromance? The bromance with my boy. They broke up, Reg. They broke up. Dude, that quick? And over what? Now, if I’m keeping it real, look at it from a street level and look at it from a corporate level. And then look at it from a power level and a money level. And all that adds to me is that I see… I don’t want to say Elon started it, but I believe maybe Elon supported Trump because he thought it was going to help his business. And The laws and that bill and the things that have been going on with the vandalism and all that is hurting his business. And maybe he left because of that. But see, here we go again. I’m about that same energy. You got all the money in the world. I mean, he’s got all the money. Like, oh, what, $400 billion, $450, $450 billion, something crazy.
SPEAKER 01 :
No, it’s never enough. It’s never enough. There we go. Like I said, if you think Elon Musk is the richest person in the world, you’re off by a big margin. The real richest people in the world aren’t on the lists. They’re paying people to keep them off the list. Off the list, huh.
SPEAKER 08 :
The E.V. bill. I always wondered about that. But how are you going to give 250 million? Is this this looks like a kickback because you don’t have I’m deep rooted into what Trump said. It touched me. I’m standing literally three, four feet from him. and what he said to do. That was the whole reason. That whole thing, coming back here,
SPEAKER 01 :
Sorry, $288 million towards Trump’s campaign. $288 million. And his net worth, Elon Musk’s net worth, was $420 billion. This is his net worth. So, I mean, $288 million. Kind of chump change, actually, to a guy like that. Yeah, it definitely is. But…
SPEAKER 08 :
It looks like a kickback. It looks like he was expecting an off-the-record kickback. If you knew Trump was—he’s always been saying he was going to cut the EVs thing. I mean, that’s from day one. But you still came in and donated all this money. But my point is, if you’re passionate about this man’s policies, about America, about everything, if you’re passionate like I am, It’s impossible for you to turn around and hate this man or disrespect him, even behind the scenes, but especially in a public light or platform. That just don’t make sense. That right there is not how it works because me, myself, I’ve sacrificed a lot. You got to deal with crazies, you know, and I’m talking about from the left and the right. You got to, you know, get out here where the people are. You got to show them love. You got to help them do this and that at the same time. Talk to them at the same time. Show them, teach them, and have a… To have the chance of bringing them in to grow in the party to where ultimately we can get back to God and country and make America great again. I mean, that’s a tough task. And you have to do it from the bottom up, not the top down. I understand that. But I sit up here and I think about… Just how much personal money that I’ve spent in this. Let’s not even talk about time. Now you know about time. You get paid to do a job, right? Whatever it is. But if you got to go to that job and work for free and put in overtime every week and you don’t get anything and you’re just trying to change somebody’s perspective, Dude, all this stuff costs major money. And I believe you’re absolutely right when you said nobody really cares because you’re not helping the big man move his money. Is that what you’re saying?
SPEAKER 01 :
I said the people who make the real big moves, right, the people who really matter, who have the real power, are looking at the guy who sent them $288 million. They’re not looking at anyone who sent them less. Because that’s what it is. Reggie, you have two friends, right? And you talk to them kind of regularly, right? These are your buddies. These are your pals. You go out with them. Well, you’re making moves. You got a radio show. You’re doing all right. Maybe work’s looking out for you. One of your buddies… Buys you lunch. That’s pretty nice. Takes you out, gets you a nice lunch. Another buddy says, here’s $288 million. Let’s get you a facility. Let’s get you a car. Let’s get you a private jet. Let’s get you 15 buses. We’ll go out to five-star restaurants every night of the week. You and I, we’re going to make things happen. You’re going to forget about the dude who bought you lunch real quick, Reg. That’s just how it is. That’s just how it works. Because if you want that private jet, and if you want that facility, and if you want your employees, and you want to keep that car, you’ve got to keep the dude who gave you the $288 million in your good graces.
SPEAKER 08 :
Okay, so somebody like me, could I get the $288 million and still do what I do and just expand it like that? consequences and strings tied to it.
SPEAKER 01 :
Dude, there’s always strings to any amount of money. When you’re at that level, like I said, do you think they’re giving away money out of the goodness of their heart? Do you think Elon Musk gave Donald Trump $288 million because he likes his social policies? That’s not how money works. That’s not how real life works. I think anyone who believes that they are giving away this money because they are good, moral people who just want to do what’s right for the world, I think that’s a very ignorant mindset. Because I think it removes all the evidence we’ve always seen across all of history and all of time. You’re giving that money away because you’re expecting something in return. That money always has strings attached.
SPEAKER 08 :
So with that, and that’s 100, I believe that wholeheartedly what you’re saying is absolutely true. So they don’t care about the little guy, no matter how good or how well he does and moves.
SPEAKER 01 :
I mean, look at the music industry. Mm-hmm. They don’t care about the little guy. They care about the big money, making big moves, playing with big players. Right. They don’t care who’s more talented, who’s this, that. No, no. It’s all about money. It’s all about money. That mindset, that industry, that power, because money is power, right? And when you’re in that sphere, you are in a powerful sphere. That doesn’t go away when you move up. That mindset does not vanish when you get more money. That mindset gets worse when you get more money.
SPEAKER 08 :
So why is Trump… Running with that because he already had all the money. Why did he run for president and go through all this? Get shot for heaven’s sake. And why did he do all this? He has all the money. He has all the power. Why is he doing if it’s not from the kindness and the goodness from his heart?
SPEAKER 01 :
I think as far as Trump goes, you can say Trump is doing this out of the goodness of his heart. You can say that he does this because he believes in his policies and his stuff like that. But the people giving him money to run his campaign aren’t there for the goodness of their hearts. Like I said, my opinion, I’m not a huge Donald Trump fan. I’ve made that pretty clear a number of times. But even assuming, let’s take Donald Trump and say that he is a paragon of morality and that everything he’s doing is out of the goodness of his heart. Well, the money from the people supporting his campaign, that’s not always the case. Even if it’s not a behind-closed-doors deal, even if it’s not some deep-seated conspiracy, it’s pretty open. I, as a… We’ll say… Me as a free market capitalist, I’m going to support Donald Trump because I believe his economic policies are going to be better for my business. So I’m going to give him money. Even if it’s not behind closed doors, that’s the mindset. You are donating to the candidate whose policies you believe are going to help you. And you get enough of those people with enough of their own agendas. Well, Donald Trump’s now in this position of, well, I got to make sure my policies are helping the people who helped me. There’s a little give and a little take, which is why I think we’re talking Elon Musk bounced is because Elon Musk gave Donald Trump a decent chunk of change with this idea that, hey, I think Donald Trump’s policies are going to help me. And then they didn’t. And then Elon Musk got mad.
SPEAKER 08 :
I agree with what you’re saying. But when does morality come in? When does ethics and godly instincts take over in reference to this whole situation? Because it can’t be all about money, can it? Everything about money? Trump’s not even taking a salary, but He doesn’t really need to, but it’s his. He deserves it. Obama’s getting $2 million, was getting $2 million a year or whatever for creating Obamacare, which should be illegal. He’s already getting paid. That’s his job, what he’s supposed to do. He turned it into a situation where this is his intellectual property, and he sold it to the government. Basically, that’s what it is. That’s criminal.
SPEAKER 01 :
I think when it comes to morality, For the most part, I think predominantly, a lot of people who get into politics go in with the right mindset. I think a lot of people, I’d prefer to believe that they get into this line of work because they care. And I’ll reference it to the music industry again because it’s something you’re familiar with. You can go in with whatever mindset you want, but it’s an atmosphere. It is a world, and you get wrapped up in it pretty quickly. You can be a very moral person in the music industry. But when you’re surrounded by all these people, I mean, it kind of picks you up and it takes you where it wants you to go. And I think that happens a lot in politics, really any institution where a lot of that money is moving around.
SPEAKER 08 :
Hey, Luke, you’re preaching it, bro. You’re preaching it because that’s exactly true. As soon as you sign on the dotted line, well, first of all, they don’t even think about you unless they know you’re out there doing something and you’re making money. And they can make money off you. So then… Someone like me signs a deal. You go in there and you’re doing that. You take your morality. You take the ethics. You take your spirituality with you and you start going in there and you’re working. You’re doing all this stuff. And then you start seeing everybody around you. Everybody around you is nothing like you.
SPEAKER 01 :
You’re absolutely right. I think it’s also, you know, it’s a lot of compromises. I mean, throwing it to politics. Let’s say you, Reggie, you want to become a congressman, right? You want to get into power because you want to do the right thing, right? Well, let’s say something comes across your desk that you don’t really like. You don’t really want to approve it. You don’t really want to sign it. This is not your cup of tea, right? But if you don’t make sure that this bill goes through – your time in Congress is done. You’re out. They will eject you, right? They’ll never listen to you again. So if you want to be listened to, you got to let this one pass, right? Just this one, and then we can start making the real change. So you let that one pass. Well, how many times does that happen? It’s like, oh, well, if you really want to make a change, if you really want to be someone, you got to make sure you grease a wheel over here. And this guy, this guy really knows everyone. So you got to make sure you’re friends with him. And, you know, hey, make sure you give a little money to the dude in the back because he’s good at what he does. I mean, like I said, you could go in for the right reasons. There’s a little compromises here and there all along the line. Next thing you know, you are all compromised, kind of in service to the people with real power.
SPEAKER 08 :
We’re all slaves, man, to money. We can’t exist without money. Nothing is for free. I understand that. The price is just how the system is set up. But knowing that, you still, to me, have to get with the little guys first. You may not care about them, but if you have an agenda, they do play a part in your agenda in a broader spectrum. But you’re absolutely right, because like Cavs will always say, He’s like, yo, man, they don’t care about the, it’s about the big money. They don’t care about what we’re doing, how much it costs. They don’t care about none of that stuff. They care about their bottom line and they set up. And my thing is, okay, they do. Okay, this is fact. And can’t nobody tell me other words. I know what it’s cost me. I know what it’s cost me in time and deals and, you know, safety, you know, coming over here. But it’s changing, dude. It is changing. It’s a lot. My people are changing. You know, CPT time. You know what that is, right? No, I can’t say I do. Color people time. Ah, gotcha. Better late than never, per se. And I kind of agree with that mostly, but there are incidents. But no, man, things are changing, and they’re changing for the better. But if you have your mind totally focused on money…
SPEAKER 01 :
It seems like you get to where you want to go way quicker. I mean, you got to – like I said, you got to grease some wheels. Yeah, you were talking about the little guy, and it just got me thinking. It’s – I mean, the people in real power, right, the people with real power and money, I think we as regular citizens, regular people – We are locked behind so many layers of bureaucracy that is so easily corrupted. I can send an email to the governor of Colorado all I want. He’s going to trash it, right? He’s not going to read it. He doesn’t care. Right. And then it’s like, you know, you and me, if we want to make real change, right, if we want to do something, we got to talk to like our local people. We got to go to like our county commissioner. Right. And then the county commissioner goes to the dude above him. And then the dude above him goes to the dude above him. And then the guy above, you know, and it just keeps escalating and escalating and escalating. It’s like even if you go like a real small level, look at my town, for example. My town, small town, a little bit south. I’m out in Elizabeth. There was a big controversy relatively recently because a developer comes in to our small town and says, hey, I want to build a bunch of homes, hundreds of homes. Well, no. We don’t really like that idea. We’re a small town. We want to keep it a small town. Well, the developer’s fiancée or the developer’s wife says, is on the town council. Oh, my God. And the developer might not give anyone on that council money, but, you know, the wife might say, hey, friend. I got a cabin up in Vail. You want to come hang out for a weekend? No obligation or nothing, but come hang out. Right, right. Well, next thing you know, those houses start coming into the town, Reg. Yeah. And it’s like at the smallest level, at the tiniest, tiniest, tiniest level, town council is happening, right? And that problem just compounds and escalates. It sure does.
SPEAKER 08 :
You’re absolutely right. Who’s on the phone? Johnny. Johnny, you there? Yeah.
SPEAKER 04 :
yeah yeah i wanted to add a little bit into this okay first about the little guy okay they won our votes and they promised right but they know like if you had a girlfriend and she promised something to you and then she doesn’t do it you can look at her every day and say you didn’t do it but the politician said well i’m your girlfriend i’m gonna promise you something i’m not gonna deliver it but i want your vote and you’ll forget about it because you’re not looking at me every day saying, you know, you’re not going to give me what I asked for. Now, the president says there’s only three presidents that have donated their salary. That was Kennedy and Hoover and Donald Trump. And what they do is, Instead of taking the pay, they donate it to their favorite charity. So the $400,000, he donates maybe $100,000 to this charity, donates another $100,000 to the charity. So they’re required to get paid, but what they choose to do with that pay is what they choose to do with it, and so they just donate it to their charity.
SPEAKER 08 :
So, okay, with all that, Trump… And Luke, man, you know, this is a you might as well smile from ear to ear, buddy, because you are 100 on point with this, because I would have never thought Elon and Trump would have been doing this. Now, this this bill. Bill’s is looking like it’s full of a bunch of horse manure. But I trust Trump. So I don’t know what’s in there and if something’s in there that shouldn’t be. I don’t believe it’s done purposely. Me, purposely. I don’t see it. Because at the same time, you’ve got to have what’s the motive. Nobody does anything without a motive. You say it’s money, money and power all the time, every time. But there, you know, I will say that. But sometimes it’s security. Sometimes it’s protection. Sometimes it’s sacrifice. What’s what’s the motive? What motive would Trump have to put a bill out there that like you just showed me what everybody making thirty thousand or less? Is getting taxed, what percentage?
SPEAKER 01 :
Do you remember? It was a shocking amount of tax increases for people making under $30,000 a year.
SPEAKER 08 :
And that just don’t sound like Trump. That don’t sound like Trump to me. Because they’re trying to make this like it’s an actual tax break for the rich? Is that what you’re really just boiling down?
SPEAKER 01 :
I mean, that’s what the numbers of the bill state, right? The numbers state if you’re making… under a certain amount of money, tax increase. If you’re making over a certain amount of money, tax decrease. That’s not speculative. It’s not like an interpretation. Those are what the raw numbers in the wording of the bill say.
SPEAKER 08 :
You know where Republicans… conservatives make their biggest mistake is because they don’t support the little guy. And what you’re saying, nobody really does. But if you look at the broader spectrum of everything and you analyze this, You have to have enough people in your corner in your party so you can put into action the things you want to have done. And if you can’t do that, you still have other chances to do it because you have a bigger party now. Our problem is we’re not tech savvy. We’ve got to get younger. And we also have to get funded because, trust me, it’s incredible how many people Trump got that voted. And it’s incredible how many minorities and everything now have crossed over. and we can’t take that for granted. And I know my people, so it’s all gravy now. Trump’s doing everything. He’s letting out, he’s partying people, he’s doing all these things, but he always has done that stuff behind the scenes, but he’s doing it in front, in front of the world. But if we have people bow out after all this work and leave the Republican Party, and I’m talking about the Hispanics and the blacks mainly, We got to start all over. So what we have to do is address this like we’re behind, not like we’re ahead. We have to keep pushing. And I would be pumping money into the little guy because that is the one that’s out handshaking in the neighborhood, doing what he does and getting the information to these people. You can’t ignore that because if you lose those numbers, we may never get them back again. What do you think, Johnny?
SPEAKER 04 :
I think it’s a delicate chance that he has to do in order to keep the new people that he’s got and to kind of see, like, are they going to really reap into what the bill really is saying. And like I said, okay, he has four years. He has to get this one through first, and then he’ll get through some of these other things. But first, this one. And this one may look like it’s really bloated. But maybe, I’m hoping like the second one that he goes for will have those cuts. It’s like this delicate dance.
SPEAKER 08 :
I’m glad you said that because to me, I’m going to just be honest, I’m not naive. You know I’m intelligent. So I’m just telling you personally, Trump is a chess player. So it doesn’t matter to me what’s in this bill because he’s the type of person that gets things done and Once that’s there, he can fake left, go right, or whatever he needs to do. So what’s ever in that bill that people are going crazy about, I believe there’s something else coming on the back end, on the side. I think he’s a chess player, so I don’t read into all this stuff because nobody thinks like him because they’re not him. I believe he’s genuine to the core on what he wants to do for America and American people.
SPEAKER 04 :
You got to remember, like, okay, this is his first time around in this kind of atmosphere. Trump did this before, remember? Every time he, the last time he signed this Umbria bill, he said, I really don’t like it. I really don’t want to sign it. But he saw those guys. Smiling at him and because they knew they wouldn’t get some pork out of it So this is the second time around had time to think about it So he knows how to get around these guys because he’s been there must First time he doesn’t know if you think that all you screwed over, but it’s not a screw-up He said this is how we got to do it.
SPEAKER 08 :
This is never about Elon Musk. So okay, so to Luke’s point so, okay the bill has We’re getting rid of that whole section with the EVs, okay? And that’s his company. So what? You knew that from day one. You knew that from day one. Unless they were in the back saying, oh, we’re going to do it, fix it, whatever. Whatever fell out, you don’t disrespect because it makes you look insane and crazy and cheap. And it’s not a good look for the party. And now you’re giving energy back. to the other side to try to, you know, destroy what we have going anyway. To me, Elon Musk is doing some traitor, treacherous stuff right now just because of how he’s handling it. And if he has a problem with that cut, I mean, I’m sure there’s a lot of people, and Luke, this is the kind of stuff you do. I’m sure there’s a lot of people you could divide up that $488 billion and And I’m sure there’s a lot of people you could help. A lot of people you could feed. A lot of people you could fund to grow the party, to grow your ideologies and everything. You know, go ahead. Put your money up and go ahead and do it. Because I’m not sure how he even got rich. I don’t even know why he’s that rich. I mean, I would think somebody in Saudi Arabia, Middle East or somebody, Dubai would be holding that. But… a white guy from South Africa? I mean, like, come on, man. You don’t want to just, you know.
SPEAKER 04 :
He met somebody. He met somebody in the government that said, okay, if you fill out this paperwork for this contract, I’d have to do some of those grants. Those grants could be pretty big, especially the federal grants. So he was probably met someone and said, okay, if you do this, you partner with the government because they have all these contracts out there for the government. and you you supply this uh you can get to this level and then i’m thinking just step by step it started growing and growing and and nobody was looking so it got to this level so so but johnny that’s okay i understand that but here’s my point he elon musk has all this money already
SPEAKER 08 :
He’s already a multi-multi-billionaire, whatever you want to call it. He could take that money and help a lot of people. it’s crazy that he’s upset over a grant. He shouldn’t even be getting a grant, you know, to tell you the truth. Hey, Luke, I got $488 billion. I got $488 billion, Luke. But I want to go ahead and go to the government and get some more money free that I don’t have to spend out of my pocket.
SPEAKER 04 :
Yeah, I’m calling it a grant because, I mean, that’s my mindset. But it’s government contracts. Is this government contract that you can sign up with the government and they want you to do a service for them? And so you do that service and you get paid for that service.
SPEAKER 08 :
Okay, so what’s the service? What’s Elon Musk’s service? Why do I care at all about Elon Musk? I hate electric cars. Like, period. I don’t want a car driving me, telling me what to do, where to go. I just don’t trust it. Technology is great, but I still don’t trust it to that level. Nothing can replace a human being.
SPEAKER 04 :
Now, that was another deal. That was a deal that he made with the Democrats when he was in good with them that says, OK, you love this fake Green New Deal. All right. Everybody’s getting their hands greased. I want to get my hand greased. Give me, subsidize it, and I can guarantee you that if you write this bill in the right way, you know. Well, maybe you can plant then.
SPEAKER 08 :
So all you’re telling me is that Elon Musk was a Democrat. He agreed with their policies, and he started doing, you know, let’s make every car in the world electric, according to Luke. uh yes he’s doing that because he thinks that it’d be better for our earth but that’s a small part the real part is he’s looking at that he’s now got getting all this money in his company everybody will have to buy a car from him or companies like him so he’s looking at the money move the money grab so because i don’t i don’t think he really cares about about the like greta
SPEAKER 04 :
yeah who’s over there shipping uh food over to afghanistan or wherever she’s at in israel yeah they don’t really they don’t really care about that they just say that to for fun like you know they’re fronting people right and the money’s there so okay i’ll go along i’ll pretend climate change But do I really believe it? No, I just believe in that dream.
SPEAKER 08 :
Okay, so how can you sleep then? I mean, if I have $488 billion and I really believe in something, I don’t need anybody else’s money. I can do… It’s like right now, if I had the money to do what I really, really want to do and can do, like… Man, it would be incredible. Everybody on the planet would know about it. But would it make me any money? No. All the money would be going out, Luke. It’s not something. If I had my own money to do what I really want to do, like $100 million, everybody on the planet would know what’s going on. But would I be making any money? No.
SPEAKER 01 :
I think you got to consider the implication of that. Where it’s like, you know, the reason you don’t have… 420 billion dollars right is because you would give it away the people who have that kind of money have it because they’re not the kind of people who would give it away my god that is so true that is so true
SPEAKER 08 :
I would give it away, there’s no doubt. And so that’s a red flag to the greedy. They want their policies and they want everything done and they act like they want all this help to be done, but they don’t. They really don’t. They’re not willing to put money into it to make it happen. Wow, this is good, man. This is a good conversation. Hey, stay on, hang on, Johnny. We will be right back. I’m a uniter.

You’ve been in my corner for a few months now, and I just want to take you out, you know what I’m saying? So if you’re free tonight at 640, I’d be happy to pick you up, Scoob, or we can meet somewhere. But, you know, yeah, yeah, that’s the reason I’m calling pretty much.

SPEAKER 03 :

And, yeah, man, you know, I’m able to get tickets sometimes. So I was like, man, I got to call Reggie, man, because, you know, you personally have helped me kind of, you know what I’m saying, get in the mindset to be able to be where I am.

Yeah, you guys are special, man. And I appreciate that, man. And heck, yes, I’ll contact you when I get off the air. But that’s incredible, man. Keep it up, man, because, you know, I’ve been doing a little Googling, man, a little research on you and what’s going on out there in that real estate world, dude. You’re killing it. And I just remember you when I first met you. And now you’re over here, conservative, out in front. And you got major deals going on. You got your music. You got everything. And your real estate is good. Man, that is just so great, man. And a black minority. That’s the key. Growing the party. Growing the party.
SPEAKER 03 :
Exactly, man. It’s a lot easier to be able to do that when I’m able to see people like you that’s been doing this for years, man. I appreciate you. Also, just so you know, when it comes to real estate, it is a buyer’s market. I happen to know people that will buy down your rate, have you be very comfortable when it comes to certain things. Anyone that you or anyone knows trying to get at home, trying to see what’s possible, contact me. I’d be happy to make something happen.
SPEAKER 08 :
Hey, man, say your number, dude, because we need more people like you.

SPEAKER 03 :
Yes, sir. Come through tonight, man. The seats are on the field, man.
SPEAKER 08 :
Golly, man.
SPEAKER 1 :
On the field.
SPEAKER 08 :
Wow. Wow. That’s incredible, man. Okay, well, cool, man. I’ll hit you when I get off the show. Thanks for calling in.
SPEAKER 03 :
Of course, man. All right, brother. Stay blessed.
SPEAKER 08 :
Peace.
SPEAKER 04 :
If you know anybody that got any Metallica tickets.
SPEAKER 08 :
Hey, man. Hey, Luke, is this a kickback from all the great things in Wexley? It cheered up my day a little. It cheered up my day a little. Corrupt and you should feel bad. Oh, my God. You know it’s bad when you feel bad. Man, rocking tickets on the field, dude? Are you serious?
SPEAKER 01 :
Take the tickets, Reg. Take the tickets. I got to, man. I got to do it. See right there?
SPEAKER 08 :
That’s how it happens. See? You just made an example of that, too. That’s how it happens. Yeah, dude. Stop it, man. Stop it. Donnie, come here. Get this dude. Get me off the air. Someone take away my microphone. Get Luke out of here. So, look, man. Elon is wrong. I don’t care what back dealings, how he’s doing it up front is number one. Number two, it looks like, you know, he’s mad over that money. The Democrats were mad at him because he agreed to he got the money from the Democrat side. He got the money when. That was their agenda within the Green New Deal, all that kind of stuff. So then he switched over to Republican. So right there, that was a dirty move in politics stuff. I mean, there you go. So now he’s coming up here. He’s with Trump. And he’s telling Trump, hey, I’m with you. I’m going to put X amount in here. And I got this, you know, government thing coming through. So let’s just roll, you know, put me in those. We’ll do all that work, blah, blah, blah. But I think maybe he was expecting that to stay and be. off the list. He was going to get that money and it wasn’t going to affect him. So when Trump did that, it seemed like as soon as he did that, he left. And now he’s saying all these things. See, when you meet somebody, you never really meet who they are. You always meet their representative. You never meet who somebody is. It takes you a minute to get through. And I know some people that can fool you for years before you really find out who and what they are, how they really think. So
SPEAKER 04 :
wait go ahead johnny look at this look at this okay uh biden is not a dealer in willard whoever the crony was that must dealt with he’s probably out of that office gone right so i don’t think he’s ever had a chance to be next to like a president like like donald trump hang out at his house and things of this sort oh no he has that crony that crony who he dealt with the biden area or whatever he dealt with them it’s probably gone doesn’t have the same kind of pull as he did and so now trump is there he looked at this and says okay we want to have a variety of vehicles from hybrid to gas to electric and i want to just make another deal so so maybe um And then again, maybe they got together and said, okay, the heat was on you, Musk. Now in order to get the heat off of you, let’s make you the bad cop and I’ll be the good cop.
SPEAKER 08 :
Well, we better start looking at kickbacks from the Democrat side. This goes deep. But I’m telling you, big dog, the bottom line for me, is that you don’t fall out of love with somebody in a day, overnight. You don’t do it. I don’t care what the relationship is. And if you ever respected that person and believed in that person from the beginning, even if you have a fallout, you still have respect to talk to this person, sit down, meet, greet, try to work it out. That type of thing. That’s the energy where I’m at. I was just asked today about all these phones. Well… The only thing I’m doing for, and it’s major, is teaching technology and getting the word out on the social media platforms because that’s what’s up. That’s where the hundreds and hundreds of millions and millions of people are, and you have to be in that form, and you have to promote technology. Your message. God. Country. You know what I’m saying? And you have to promote the right way. You have to get it out there. So, unfortunately, the people who own these platforms, they have… They’re liberals. They’re liberals. Or they are dictators. And they are making money hand over fist. Legally and illegally from off of you. So, if you say anything against them, if you say… or fight or buck the system in any way, they’re going to block you or take you down because they don’t want the truth coming. They don’t want you reaching other people to change their mind. That’s why I have all these phones, computers, software, subscriptions, all this stuff. It costs a lot of money, dude. And that’s not including the time or the work it takes to reach there. But that’s what Trump do. That’s what he said. So we have to educate. We have to grow the party and we have to get our message out. And if it gets buried, on social media or we have no slot or existence there, it’s a wrap. It’s a wrap, dude. So Trump knows this. Trump knows this. That’s why he has his own social media platform. That’s why, you know, with the X thing, you know, He knows. He knows. That’s why he, with the TikTok, he said, hey, nah, let’s put it off. Let’s put it off. Let’s put it off. Let’s work it out. Trust me, dude. That’s where it’s at. So all I’m doing is promoting our message. And you have to do it in different. To the Christians, I’m doing it one way. to the conservatives, I’m doing it one way, to the Democrats one way, the liberals. It’s all different ways that you have to do, but you must do it. You must do it because that’s where everything is. Digital money, all that, everything’s going to be, no hardware, everything’s going to be in cyberspace, dude, everything. Every single thing. Your cars are driving. Your planes and trains are moving and driving themselves. I mean, everything. Your money is now turned digital. You know, it’s being sent in the air. You know, that’s what it is. And we can’t stop it. We have to evolve to it. Is it dangerous? It’s very dangerous to me. I wish we could actually go back to the old way. But I don’t think that will ever happen, Luke.
SPEAKER 01 :
Do you? No, you cannot stop progress. You can attempt to slow it, but even then. I think the stuff that’s here is here to stay, and the stuff that’s in the works will be worked on. I mean, I’ve brought it back because it comes up a lot when you talk about AI. There’s a lot of people who are scared of AI. A lot of people who are terrified of AI. Me, I am too, but I’m good at it. And it’s like, you know, we need to stop it. We can’t do it. It’s not good. But I think, you know, it’s very limited. Back in the day when lace making was all done by hand and then a lace making machine came out, you had people running into those factories and burning those machines to the ground because they didn’t want it. It was removing jobs, whatever. We got factory-laced now. You can burn all the factories you want to the ground. It will not stop progress. People will move forward. That’s just how it is. That’s how it always has been, and that’s how it always will be.
SPEAKER 08 :
And even Elon Musk, I’ve seen him. I heard it out of his own mouth. He said, AI is dangerous. Dangerous.
SPEAKER 01 :
It’s not going to stop it.
SPEAKER 08 :
Yeah, but I’m like, this is coming from the guy who’s making all these cars drive by themselves and sending rockets into space and all this stuff. He’s talking about it’s dangerous. Well, it would be really dangerous if he was the only one that had the AI technology. So we all have to have it. We all have to learn it because, like you said, we can’t stop it. We have to learn it, and we have to set up the future with our kids. and our kids’ kids with this situation because you will be left in the prehistoric times on everything if you don’t get into this technical world and understand where we’re at. And, hey, that’s where I’m at. So I’m going to always… Do what I have to do. It would be much easier. And if you’re not in it, Luke, you’re telling me everybody’s in it for money. That’s what you’re telling me. You’re saying every single thing is in it for money. Even if you’re filthy rich, filthy rich, it’s still you want more money. Isn’t that the very definition of greed? Isn’t that one of the seven deadly sins? Yeah.
SPEAKER 01 :
Yeah. Like I said, I think a lot of people are in it for money. Maybe not everyone. I don’t want to paint with a broad stroke. But I think a lot of people are. Most people. I think a good chunk. I would say a majority of people are in it for the money. I think it takes – I mean, again, look at history. Look at our politics. Look at our industries. Look at anyone in power. I think you would find that people who are moral, who are good, and who care are the exception to the rule. I mean, just look at anyone who represents us. Look at, you know, look at just about anything, any industry. I think you’d find that the exception to the rule are the moral people.
SPEAKER 08 :
You can go right to the church and pastors and see how much money they have. I mean, we’ve got pastors that got jet planes and private homes in every state, in the country, out the country, you know, private islands and all kind of stuff. And I’m like, wow. you you’re a church right and you’re preaching this word and you can really make up stuff as you go oh today oh i need this god told me there was even a a pastor that locked everybody in the church and said nobody is leaving until we get a thousand dollars a person yeah
SPEAKER 01 :
I think sort of like what we were talking about when it’s like the reason you’d never make $420 billion is because you’d give it away. I think it’s kind of a self-fulfilling prophecy in a sense, right, if you think about it, wherein the people who are greedy, who are going to connive, who are going to lie, cheat, and steal – To get money are the people who are going to have that money. The good, moral, honest, hardworking people who take that money and redistribute it into their community, who create jobs, who pay fair wages, those people will never be filthy rich because their morality is making them be fair with it. So it’s like anyone who is crazy rich is crazy rich because they’re taking that money, because they’re doing the things that secure them that. That’s what I think.
SPEAKER 04 :
I’ll give you an example of a business guy I know. He has a moving company, and he hires legal. But he’s getting undercut because there are other companies out there who are hiring illegal so they can cut the prices lower than him.
SPEAKER 08 :
Boy, book you with this gloom and doom. I just, I don’t know.
SPEAKER 01 :
I think the logic tracks.
SPEAKER 08 :
I think it makes sense. It does, though. You know me. I’m straight up. I like to keep the same energy. Because you can’t really battle. So we’re all in agreeance. I don’t care what you’re doing. It takes money to make it happen. And then you have to do everything you can and be as ruthless as… technically as you can and as greedy as you can to bust through to get your money now once you bust through there and you get enough money that you need That’s the point where it really bothers me. Okay, so you’re there. I just don’t know. I’m Trump. I’m not doing this, yo. It has to be a moral fiber. Elon Musk, if I’ve got all that money, don’t you understand there’s one thing that money can’t buy your way into heaven. Money cannot stop you from dying. You know, so is it really, really, really that important?
SPEAKER 01 :
Evidently so.
SPEAKER 08 :
Is it really that important?
SPEAKER 01 :
Right? It’s not going to stop you from dying. It’s not going to buy you into heaven, but it can get you a private jet to Tahiti whenever you want. It makes your time on Earth a lot more enjoyable.
SPEAKER 08 :
But if you’re greedy with your money, if you’re not genuine in your heart, you can’t fool the master. You can’t fool the God, our God. You can’t fool him.
SPEAKER 01 :
You think the people with that kind of money believe? I don’t think so. I don’t think so. I think if you have that kind of money and you believe in God and the Bible and the teachings of Jesus, then you’d understand that the teachings of Jesus implore you to use that money for the greater good. Right. And if they’re not doing that, then clearly they don’t believe, or if they do believe, they don’t care.
SPEAKER 08 :
And that’s scary. That’s scary. Johnny, where you at, man? I hear all this noise in the background.
SPEAKER 04 :
I’m walking to the gym.
SPEAKER 08 :
You’re walking. You sound like a parade.
SPEAKER 04 :
I’m walking to the gym. I’m on 13th Street. It’s a lot of traffic, so it is what it is.
SPEAKER 08 :
Hey, I appreciate you calling in, though. What’s going on down there anyway? Why are you down there?
SPEAKER 04 :
Just down here, usually I go work out at 10 o’clock every day. Well, Friday’s the week, and, you know, just trying to. Stay healthy because, you know, what’s the good of having money if you’re sick?
SPEAKER 08 :
That’s true. That’s true. I’ve seen the video out there. And some things, like, it touches me that, you know, it tears you up. And, you know, usually it’s only things about my mother that can tear me up. Or things of great kindness or sacrifice. And I’ve seen… A father laying in bed with his son that looked like he was about 12. And his son is going to die without a heart transplant. And they can’t find a donor to match. But the only match that they had was his father. So it went down to the timeline to where you have to make a decision or he’s going to die. They show the father in bed and he’s telling everybody, this is what I have to do. This is what I want to do. This is what I must do. He is going to let the doctors kill him to give his son his heart. Now. If that don’t get you, nothing will get you. The kid is crying. He knows he’s losing his dad, but he also knows he’s going to be gaining life. And that was just very touching. And you just looked on the father’s face and on the kid’s face was so grateful and he’s crying and he’s bawling. The father’s face, you could tell he had a little fear, but he was walking that way no matter what. Now, that is something else, man. That is something else. So, I try to mimic… myself in those ways on there. Like I say every day, Luke, what do I say? I’m not perfect. We’re all sinners. After I leave here, haircut, club. Yes, that’s what it is. But I do have morality. I do have ethics and morals. You just try to keep pushing. You know what, Luke? All that goes away with money, though. You’re right. They can’t believe in that because the reason they have that kind of money is because They don’t believe. And you’re right. I would give it all away. And that’s a flag to the people up there. They want somebody that’s going to keep making the money, bringing the income to the system. They don’t want you to share the wealth and bring everybody up and do what you need to do. And I’ve been experiencing that for years, not just in politics. I really didn’t think politics was like this, though. Boy, was I wrong. It’s worse than music industry. Without a doubt, it’s worse. Wow. Wow.
SPEAKER 04 :
I mean, it’s more money. It’s more power, which means the problems are more.
SPEAKER 08 :
Well, all these Democrats are admitting now that, you know, we are right. The right is the best way that they were wrong about Biden. They’re wrong about all this other stuff. You got people leaving the country, people, you know, resigning. But then you got other people standing up and saying, yeah, I was wrong. You got other people that’s changing and doing that. So that part is great. This is a real problem with Elon Musk. What he’s spitting out and how they’re doing in public, that’s a real problem. Not because it’s going to hurt Trump financially or his base. His base is his base. It ain’t going anywhere. What I’m afraid of is that if they… If the Republican Party doesn’t do what they need to do for the minorities and keep growing the party and getting that message out, it’s not going to be good for this next cycle, even midterms. It’s not going to be good. So we have to keep pushing. We have to keep getting the message out. We have to keep doing it, and we have to do it on that platform. And that’s all I do with – Black Lives Matter is on the social media platforms. Promote the message. Grow the party. And, yeah, if we had that type of level of money, it wouldn’t stop me. It wouldn’t stop me. It would only make things better. So that’s how I’m going to look at it. But, you know, man, Johnny, it is getting very, very, very close to this time. I love coming here. I love the show, man. I love talking what we’re doing. And just you guys, if you guys want to donate, send checks to money orders whatever or go to weareblacklivesmaga.com and if you can do it do it great it’s um either way we’re going to keep moving nothing’s going to stop and we’re going to go ahead and count this down three two one and we out yeah all right y’all
SPEAKER 07 :
