My Response to Hate from Valuetainment & Patrick Bet-David

there's a good chance some of you may

know patrick bett david from the youtube

channel

valuetainment well patrick bent david

invited me onto his podcast

to discuss my campaign for governor

and some of the folks who were on that

podcast

just did a reaction video about their

thoughts

about how my podcast interview went and

what i'm going to do is i'm going to

react

to their reaction so yes this is like a

youtube inception loop

but it's worth making a very clear and

blunt response here and i want to give

you

two prefaces or prefi i i don't know

maybe you can help me figure that out

number one

the video that you were about to watch

for me is going to be completely

unedited that's because i want you to

know

that the thoughts and plans that i have

come inherently from

within our vision for solving the

problems that california has

not some manuscript somewhere they come

from a plan

and vision we've put together that we

strongly believe in

and we believe that with the opportunity

to share our vision

not getting cut off or talked over or

yelled at

we can on the spot respond to any

question that comes up in our campaign

in fact this weekend i held four rallies

and i'm holding another rally tonight

and i actually do q and a's at my rally

so when i do a q a and somebody asks me

a hard question i give them an answer

uncut live let's

watch this together and let's respond to

honestly

some of the nonsense that's in this

because folks have sent me this video

and have said kevin

you need to see this there's nonsense in

this

all right so we're going to respond to

this the second thing that i wanted you

to know

is that when i was in the original

podcast i only unfortunately slept

two hours before the podcast now i'm not

trying to make excuses

this is actually my fault see i never

wanted to miss

a market open or close uh live stream

when i've committed to doing them

and so i flew out on a red eye

to go to this interview and only miss

a one day worth of my live streams

rather than miss two days

so i thought hey well if i buy a red-eye

flight and i buy

a plane ticket that would let me sleep

on the plane because it'd be a chair

that could maybe like rotate down or

something like that i could sleep

then good i'd be well rested because

it's like a six hour flight and i'm like

ah that's about the amount of time i get

anyway

well unfortunately the flight was

delayed at two hours with jetblue so

jetblue big time

screwed me there was a baby in the cabin

the plane had

problems getting its engine started so

here i am freaking out about being late

for my interview in the morning

i'm freaking out about not getting

enough sleep the planes having problems

and their babies screaming this kind of

stuff happens and i realize again maybe

i

should just left earlier well it's not

that easy when there are no flights

between either choosing a red eye or 8

a.m in the morning

but then i would have missed my other

commitments it's the problem

this is one of the reasons we've been

using a jet ourselves

that i've been paying for my own money

from my business

to travel to make sure that we don't

have these inconveniences

anyway no excuses let's get into the

reaction here so you can learn a little

bit more about my policies and the truth

about what's going on okay so no cuts

this entire video is giving me no cuts

let's go let's respond

meet kevin is very very passionate i'll

give him that he's very passionate

he wants california to succeed he wants

california to be better

but um he's an ideologue and this is

honestly a problem i have

with most people on the quote-unquote

left today they uh

they think their good intentions

supersede their bad ideas

okay let's start right here

i want to ask you this isn't it time

we finish having bull crap garbage

identity politics in our country isn't

it time

we stop the crap of oh they're a

democrat or oh they're

a republican look yeah i'm running

as a democrat in a state that is a super

majority legislative body

of democrats folks when you hear my

opinions

on my plan our solutions and our

research

my answers are californian answers

they're not democratic answers they're

not republican answers

they are true californian answers to

solving the problems we have

and guess what no other candidate is

doing that tell me the plan

of the other candidates what is gavin

newsom going to do differently compared

to his last three years in office or his

24 years in california politics

nothing nothing's going to change what's

a republican governor

or candidate even proposing that would

get changed in california

caitlyn jenner says she's going to use

veto powers to prevent democrats from

making changes

hello do you know what a super majority

in congress means it means your veto

power means nothing

because congress has a power to overrule

your veto

you have to work with the legislator

legislative body you have to work with

them but identity politics are

garbage and the fact that we're starting

out we're starting this conversation out

with this individual suggestion

suggesting that i'm an

ideologue and that because i have a

label

i am wrong with fairy tale ideas

this is the cancer of our society right

here

this is what's wrong with our society

this is why we can't solve the problems

in our society

this is exactly what's wrong with our

society

let's keep going because i'm gonna

actually provide real solutions

so the idea of what we're gonna do is

we're going to

friendly put in sending the national

guard to kindly

round up uh the

yeah the unwanted people on our streets

and we're gonna put them in these

awesome super not re-education detention

camps where they're gonna get the

education that they need and the help

that they need and we're just gonna you

know

because listen man if people that were

in this situation

were capable of functioning at that sort

of level now i'm not saying that

it's not a noble idea what i'm saying

is is that rounding up the people you

don't want

and putting them into a camp has been

tried before and it didn't work out yeah

all right let's pause here because this

is a horrible

horrible representation of what i stand

for it's completely

wrong first of all it's very important

that you know that i have three thousand

hours in law enforcement experience

which includes working with homeless

communities

i also visit homeless communities and i

talk to homeless advocates

how many other gubernatorial candidates

are talking to

non-profits like invisible people or

other mental health professionals to

understand

how we actually solve and prevent

homelessness in our state

nobody is doing it because nobody cares

folks i stated that on day one of my

administration i will declare

a state of emergency to end homelessness

on our streets in california within 60

days

and then we're going to continue to

actually solve the causes of

homelessness it is a two-part problem

people stop living on our streets as

part one part number two is you have to

stop the causes

of homelessness it's very simple five

weeks after

i've started advertising and publishing

my idea of declaring a state of

emergency

the sheriff of los angeles county which

also happens to be conveniently right

after

i interviewed the sheriff of los angeles

county parks

and the captain of the lapd and i said

we need a state of emergency

it is no surprise that five weeks after

this the sheriff of los

angeles county on twitter says we should

declare a state of emergency it's

because my ideas are good but not only

are they good

they are what california needs because

we need to acknowledge the fact that we

are in a state of emergency

we can't keep digging our head in the

sand because oh somebody has big ideas

oh my gosh oh

fairy oh wow you have ideas how about

somebody actually gets

the cojones to do something we actually

have a governor who gives a crap

about implementing policies that work

that's what this election is about

that's why our governor is being

recalled because we have policies that

fail us in california california doesn't

realize this

as a whole and it's sad but proper

leadership

leadership under someone like me can

solve this

folks consider this and i'm going to

tell you my homeless solution and we're

going to keep going

consider this and it's ridiculous

california

has illegal platforms stealing

water from fire hydrants instead

of shutting down those illegal pot farms

who are polluting

our aquifers and our groundwater who are

stealing our water from our fire

hydrants

instead of shutting down those farms

california

says you know what let's just remove the

fire hydrants

are you kidding me that is stupid

we need fire hydrants to fight fires

why instead of ignoring the problem

the illegal farms are we removing fire

hydrants when we should be removing the

problem not the fire hydrants

that's why california is mismanaged but

california is a beautiful state

california is a great state it has smart

people and as people who are capable

of solving the problems we have in our

state but it's when we get

nonsense and a lack of nuance

that we continue down the same course of

failure

and so what is my homeless plan properly

am i trying to create detention camps

no in fact here's exactly what we're

going to do

we are going to feed every homeless

person on our street with three meals a

day we're going to provide

clean bathrooms and security so people

stop getting beaten and people stop

dying on our streets

whole foods throws away more food than

it would take to feed all of our

homeless population in california

and that's because they don't want to

take the liability of feeding the

homeless which makes sense because

california is very litigious well guess

who's not afraid of taking liability

folks

meet kevin paffraff i'll take it i'll

solve the problem because people stop

dying when i become the governor

it's ridiculous so our 30-day plan

day one to 30 which keep in mind there's

about a five-week transition before you

become the governor

before that five-week transition we can

actually or during that five-week

transition we can actually work with the

national guard to prepare our plans and

have

solid plans with our national guard

because we're not coming in with tanks

we're coming in with very smart soldiers

veterans people who know how to deal

with emergencies if they can build

wartime facilities in afghanistan then

we can treat homelessness in california

the capital for homelessness in the

country

ninety percent of homelessness in

california comes from within california

not from other states

it comes from california it's a

californian problem and when we finally

address our issue as an emergency we can

begin to solve things

how about we build 80 emergency

facilities where people have the option

of going to them option the door is open

you want to sleep you want to see a

doctor you want to go into mental health

triage or if you can't take care of

yourself we've got substance

abuse triage we've got drug tree hodge

same thing

we've got mental health triage we

actually have centralized services

which our mental health community says

we need to be able to cure homelessness

then we finally begin to actually solve

the causes

or the qualms that leave people homeless

look 70 percent of people who go onto

our streets

don't go onto the streets because they

have mental health problems or because

they have substance problems they go

onto the streets because of economic

problems

but then they fall victim to mental

health crises

and substance abu abuse crises why

because when you're homeless on the

street you're in despair

you can't get a clean bathroom you can't

get you can't get clean you can't get

food

you're in fear for your life is that how

the fifth largest economy in the world

should treat its people

we should be handling this like a state

of emergency because our existing

governor is not doing anything about it

and so folks people ask me like oh well

so

are you gonna round people up no we're

not

we're going to work by understanding

homelessness which we already know

but we're going to work with our

communities because we understand

that homelessness is community based

homelessness

creates block presidents block mayors

street

mayors mayors of this part of the city

or that

park over there or whatever by working

with our

homeless community leaders we can find

out exactly what their needs are and we

can build to those specifications so we

can begin to solve our problems working

with our non-profits working with our

activists working with our agencies

working with our law enforcement

working with our national guard and

actually having a leader who's going to

coordinate everything together

that's how you solve homelessness people

say oh but kevin you say you're going to

have it so that no one's allowed to

sleep on the street within 60 days

that's correct the california courts

have found that

it is illegal to sleep on our streets

that's all you don't even need me to say

that it is illegal to sleep on our

streets

unless there is no alternative option

well guess what there is going to be

when we have 80 emergency facilities

able to house 2 000 individually

individuals each you have an alternate

that means if somebody's passed out

because they're trying to sleep and they

were trying to stay up all night because

they're not allowed to sleep on the

floor

on our streets but then all of a sudden

they pass out well it sounds like they

need medical attention they're not going

away in handcuffs they're not getting

rounded up

they're going to get medical attention

and they're going to drop they're going

to get dropped off

at an emergency facility where they can

get evaluated taken care of they can

rest they can sleep they can be fed they

can shower if they want

and if they want to walk out the door at

5am that's fine you want to

take a bagel and go go i don't care the

door's wide open

leave if you are capable of living on

your own

go use the service and go

that's what my emergency facilities are

for but the rule is

nobody sleeps on my streets in

california because people aren't

sleeping on the streets

they're dying on the streets more people

are dying on the streets to homelessness

than they are of gun violence

that is unacceptable for the fifth

largest economy in the world

and we're even condemned to be in a gun

violence epidemic

it's nuts it's unacceptable

it is ridiculous so when someone

tries to cut me off or speak over me and

suggest that oh i have a fairy tale idea

and i'm going to round people up

you have got to be kidding me i'm

solving an emergency

and i'm sorry if you want to see people

continue to die on the street

fine that's something you have to live

with

but i believe californians are good

people i believe

americans are good people and we don't

want to see people dying on our streets

especially not in the fifth largest

economy in the world in california

just losing tourism revenues because of

crime lawlessness and homelessness we

need a governor who's gonna put some

pants on and solve the damn problems in

our state

let's keep going so is that the only

thing you took from his

two-hour sit down here no like that one

thing or what else would i

no because he also wants to put uh local

governments under occupation as well so

it was all negative stuff there was

nothing you agreed with it was all

oh my gosh i'm not putting local

governments under

occupation this is ridiculous again this

is

exactly the kind of garbage i'm sorry

gerard i'm sorry but this is bullcrap

you're spewing here

patrick bet david this is an

embarrassment

say something this is bullcrap that is

fake news

that was not what i said this is a

misinterpretation of what i said i don't

i don't even know if gerard listened to

what i said

i said that our state has massive

problems

with fragmented regulation why is it

that 80

of the cannabis sold in the state of

california is illegal

it's because every state has different

rules different tax regimes

different permits different wait periods

different bull crap

that's required to actually get ahead

why don't we have one regulation why

don't we have

one regulatory regime that makes it so

we can build houses faster

so we can actually solve our housing

affordability crisis by

providing more supply it's simple it's

econ 101

get the government out of the way and

let the free market function and that

does not mean the free market should

function unchecked

i'm not saying do away with building and

safety departments i'm just saying

if we have 482 building and safety

departments in the state how about we

have

slightly higher building and safety

standards but we have one standard

understanding that each city is still

going to have a little bit of an

overleaf for their own designs

we don't want to take character away

we're not trying to make

santa barbara look like palm springs or

vice versa right i understand that

but we can streamline so much by having

a leader that realizes

you can't look listen let me just give

you a very simple example here

the voters voted to approve cannabis

as a legal recreational drug in 2016.

folks it has been a full five-year plan

and we still have 90

of the businesses who are legal on

provisional licenses

because they can't figure it out they

can't get their act together at the same

time

illegal pot farming is booming it has

tripled

in just the last year because there's no

enforcement

there's lawlessness it's because the

permitting process was a disaster

so one stupid comment like

are you kidding me are you kidding me

how about some nuance

how about realizing that government is

complicated and that government needs

real solutions to function appropriately

and then

everyone who works for city building and

safety departments or permitting offices

or offices who are trying to do the

right thing for businesses

are no longer bound by complexity and

red tape

they can do their job and serve the

community which is what should be done

and corruption should be weeded out and

guess what you do you weed out

corruption when you have one standard

not 482 standards that nobody

understands and i'll tell you

nobody is better at making exposed

videos than me kevin and i'm gonna be

making

a lot of exposed videos about the bull

crap that stands in the way

of solving california's problems that's

what we need transparency

and solutions not stupid one-liners like

this

we're cutting people off with one-liners

like that

ideologue that i don't agree with i

think that what happens is that listen

if you're gonna sit here and have a

conversation with me you're so friendly

today what is the story

what happened over the weekend after the

show if you want to have a conversation

with me

wait a minute wait a minute this is

interesting patrick that david just said

why are you being so friendly to him

what happened over the weekend they're

talking about them too because

i wasn't involved in anything over the

last two weeks here so this is actually

really interesting because

there's clearly some sort of tension

between these two folks here patrick but

david is not enlightening

us about that the way you think things

should be

and you want to be you know some sort of

a utopian ideologue that's fine that's

your that's your prerogative as as a

person okay i wish we can do x

if you're running for governor of the

fourth largest economy in the freaking

world and your idea is to send in the

fourth largest is germany get your facts

right before you start

spewing crap fictional guard and round

up the people i don't want on my streets

i'm sorry but you have to have some

pushback and it should have frankly

it's not about him there should have

been somebody in his camp that was like

okay you understand how this is going to

sound to anybody

that believes in in the cobra paradox at

all like in this promise i don't even

know if he has a camp i think he's like

kind of doing it solo

oh we got a camp we got a staff we got a

staff of folks and guess what our staff

did folks

you could look this up yourself okay

type this in

meet kevin national guard we have a

video on this that we put out

well before this interview look at this

governor to

deploy national guard to end

homelessness you think we just whipped

that together without actually talking

to people first

look at this next video right here

exposing the truth why california is

broken former l.a

deputy mayor former city manager of

santa monica and ventura

come on folks come on folks

this is ridiculous we know our plan is

bold

but that's why our slogan is out with

the old

in with the bold stop wasting money

folks let's keep going this is bull crap

so far but let's keep going

this is not like a kid you're going like

high five like you're doing great

speaking on stage

bloody freaking government the governor

of california you had strong opinions

on him i think that was the problem and

most importantly

he's the type that probably has done

very well

rehearsed but when he goes oh bull crap

are you kidding me anyone who watches my

channel

or sees me live at a rally when i

respond to questions

live anyone who sees me live on videos

knows i don't need to be rehearsed knows

i don't need a script

knows that i will tell it to you if you

give me a freaking chance to talk

you cut me off and you try to bulldoze

well that is on you

that is on you for being ignorant and

not capable of listening

let's keep going maybe like a road game

hostile situation with it really wasn't

even

which i give him credit for right in

fairness

really isn't even hospital go watch it

opportunity right and i think he missed

it because

he did get uh pushback and

kind of deflected a lot and couldn't get

to the point hey look

i will admit my answers could have been

more clear and that's why i'm providing

clarity that's why i also provided

clarity in multiple other videos after

this interview

look up meet kevin quote i'm pissed or

i'm pissed about california or i'm still

pissed about california where i provide

the exact responses censorship

wrong illegal not happening i was

censored

when i first posted on instagram the

announcement of my campaign

and guess who donated to gavin newsom's

campaign

instagram and facebook folks censorship

is bad

bad i will give you blunt answers you

ask me blend answers or questions

i will give you blunt answers look i

could have been a lot more blunt on that

podcast had i had more of an opportunity

to talk and probably the proper amount

of sleep

quite frankly when i went to this

podcast i was given

about a 10-page document of

conversations that we were supposed to

talk about like oh these are bullet

points we're going to talk about we

literally

talked about maybe one percent of that

in fact if you watch the podcast and

there's there's a point where they're

talking about valedictorians or whatever

and you could see somebody had a

responsibility towards

because i had a ten page document going

oh at one point we're going to talk

about validating choice

but we talked about two percent of that

document instead we spend most of the

time

trying to explain my homelessness plan

but continuing to get cut off by

individuals who are trying to paint my

plans

as something they're not people who are

not trying to listen

i think one of the things that i've

noticed like here when we talk about

politics or business

is a running mate people the

partnerships that he has

this guy has a ton of things going on

you know in his life but he didn't once

mention like

who would help put these people in these

places

that requires a lot of funding a lot of

money he didn't walk us through those

things

and that's what i was most concerned

with and then when pat would ask

about that it was more like well i don't

have all the answers but then he had all

the answers

that's not what i said see i'm the kind

of person who's not going to stab you in

the fricking back

when you come to me and you ask me a

question that i don't know the answer to

i'll tell you i don't know the answer

and i'll get back to you with the

information

just like i do on my youtube channel if

somebody says kevin what's the answer to

this

i'm not gonna bullcrap you i will find

out the answer and i'll make a video and

i'll get back to you

i'll get back to you but this is crap

this is crap if you watch the interview

i never said i had all the answers

who are you to say i'm coming across as

somebody who has all the answers when i

literally said i don't have all the

answers in the interview

you have got to be kidding me the

answers and i don't really i need the

data so that's where i got kind of

confused as to okay

you you're a know-it-all but you don't

know any here's what i will tell you

about this here's what i would tell you

about this

roger stone okay people ask me and say

why do you interview all these random

people you know like all these mobsters

roger stone former criminals all these

people right because everything's about

how did it get you to

be thinking the way you think right

roger stone is a pretty

pretty weird guy and when he was talking

he said a few different things he said

in life everybody goes through three

phases he says first phase is

who is roger stone like meaning who's

roger stone

second phase is get me roger stone

third phase is i need somebody like

roger stone fourth phase is

who's roger stone meaning you're

forgotten about right you start off with

you're for nobody knows who you are

irrelevant

then you go to dude this guy's amazing i

want him then you go to get me somebody

like him that's younger

then you go to i have no i've never

heard of him before right okay

i don't care what anybody says agree or

disagree with this guy the level of

respect

i got for people like me kevin you go

build a 2 million subscriber channel at

28 29 years old and get that kind of an

audience in money real estate

making 6.2 million dollars in a year at

that age

he's absolutely crushing it this is the

biggest thing with a guy like that

i've been running sales teams for a long

time the biggest thing with a guy like

that

at that point sometimes when you win

very early

one of the hardest things for you to do

is to listen to anybody

it's the hardest thing to do when you

win early when you win

later after you've lost anything

everything it's one of the best things

that have happened to you

are you kidding patrick i appreciate the

compliments

but apparently you have not seen my

wikipedia page we'll go to it really

quick

and this wikipedia page and i understand

it's wikipedia but i've made videos

about this in the past before and this

hasn't here i just pulled it up

uh you can see here it hasn't been it's

not like i just edited this in response

to this here let me turn it there go to

that camera

here you can see my wikipedia page here

last edited 13 days ago

yeah there it is last edited 13 days ago

so okay here we go

oh yeah okay here here look at this look

at this i think it's under this section

career

career pathway earned his real estate

license in 2010

bought a fixer-upper blah blah blah in

2017 they began to offer construction

services through their organization but

ended the venture 18 months later after

losing 1 million dollars

this was before youtube i lost a million

dollars on a failed

business before i started succeeding on

youtube

in fact some of the things in my opinion

that gave me success on youtube were the

ability to say

i have failed so i don't disagree with

you i don't disagree with what you've

said about how that's important but

don't suggest that i haven't had my

share of failure

it's easy it's very easy to sit around

and go oh yeah somebody's got you know

it's not 2 million

appreciate the call the flattery there

but uh you know

sure 1.67 1.68 million subscribers

i'm grateful for all my subscribers and

my vision is always to provide

value and service to them but don't tell

me i haven't failed

don't tell me i haven't failed typically

ends up becoming a better person to be a

leader

when you lost everything in your 20s i'm

talking

girl money fame success you were the

main guy you got your nose bloody

all of that 20s and 30s when it happens

then you lead in your 40s and 50s

now you kind of like remember listen you

know everybody gets knocked out hey

listen yeah as bad as you are everybody

go

so i think he hasn't gone through that

yet which is my recommendation too was

to go get

his nose do your facts first folks look

at your facts first before you start

saying that i mean in fairness patrick

bet david did say i think

okay i like patrick but he's also

letting

you know some comments flow here not

just from him but but from others that

that are just untrue

untrue it's wrong it's garbage

and then the other part is you need a

couple guys like them behind closed

doors

yeah you need a couple guys like them to

talk to behind closer that's going to be

like yeah i don't know about that i

don't know it's going to work

push back oh we do this back and then

for him to argue with you and say no

here's why i believe in this

and he's still going to push back and

he's going to say you know what no i get

the point

kind of like yesterday we're watching

the you know at that time and you see

there's pushback

and then finally he's like yeah okay i

agree that's fine i totally understand i

think there needs to be a little bit of

that

we're going to see what's going to

happen again drawing a conclusion that

that is

not what's happening seriously you go to

meet kevin.com and you see my 20 part

plan

and you think that just like magically

appeared

come on folks look at the 20 part plan

it's very well thought out

no other candidate that i am aware of

has a very clear and specific plan with

solutions

and that's what california needs i i

hope the guy's got a big upset he

doesn't slow down and i hope this

doesn't discourage him to go run right

but it doesn't discourage me at all it

encourages me because i know this is

what californians need

it is what it is let me get you guys

opinion on something because you know

right after the podcast who's on ricky

with you guys

yes and you popped in oh no that was the

one time

so right after the podcast i interviewed

him yeah and it was more of a financial

type interview it wasn't that i even

said we're not going to be political all

we talk is money all we talk is money

we did the financial interview but i

said let me ask you something kevin

respect you came

on you know you did your thing

have you ever been a a a mayor

a representative uh a dog teacher like

if you've never been in politics

ever what makes you think a lack of

experience is a good thing meaning

you've done real estate for 10 years

i've never done real estate i've done

finance

yeah but i've never done real estate

that's like me saying i think it would

be a realtor today

and the number one realtor in the entire

state what makes you think

that you can just be governor with zero

experience and i think

this is what i would have called the dj

djt effect on

djtf okay hold on a second here let's be

very blunt about this okay

what is the number one issue that

california has followed by the number

two issue that california has number one

homelessness number two housing

unaffordability

number three you've also got crime so

actually consider the first three issues

here okay

oh gosh wait a minute wait but then

there's also

education okay top four issues

homelessness

housing education and crime

well let's break down experience i have

3 000

hours understanding what it's like to be

on the road with law enforcement

domestic violence police pursuits

traffic stops

understanding the difference between

racial profiling that racial profiling

is illegal

but vehicular profiling is not so is it

a surprise

that more hispanics and blacks

disproportionately get discriminated

against folks i

understand how the system works i don't

know everything i'm not going to pretend

i know everything

but i understand a lot more because of

the experience that i have

and i surround myself with people i just

interviewed

a swat officer from a local department

here to understand

why we have such lawlessness in

california i understand

that when i need to get extra clarity i

surround myself with people who have the

answers and who can provide that clarity

that's what you need i'm not coming in

here trying to suggest i know everything

because i say many times i don't

but i can do the research and i can

connect with the people who do have the

answers

and then we put common sense solutions

in place so let's be clear again

big problem homelessness deal with that

with policing

i've also gone into communities and

again interviewed activists and

surrounded myself with professionals who

guide me on how to solve homelessness

and how broken

homeless issues are today i have more

homeless

phone numbers in my contact list on my

phone

than i do cops that's a lot

so homelessness crime i understand i

understand

housing crisis yeah real estate investor

real estate broker that is my background

providing

value into helping people understand how

complex housing is

what affects housing prices an economics

degree from well actually a political

science degree from ucla i started in

economics

but then graduated with political

science so background in political

science and economics from ucla

folks the problems the big problems we

have

or where i have experience housing

homelessness

crime and teaching because what do i do

every day

who can read a robin hood

s1 and 30 minutes after it comes out

post an unedited one

take video on my distillation of that

financial report

with that joker that's right here on the

screen right here this literally this

joker i'm not i'm not trying to offend

anyone

that joker right here that's the joker

okay in the background type it in

meet kevin robin hood you'll see

so folks i know that i have to surround

myself with people who have answers

and that's exactly what i do it's

exactly what i do

so to suggest that i don't is wrong

it's fake news to suggest that i don't

have experience

relevant to the problems we have in

california is also fake news

but let's tell you what experience you

don't want in government

24 years of working beholden to

lobbyists

like governor gavin newsom has folks

i have zero political baggage the people

of california get to decide who leads

them

the people decide

politicians in this election

now this is specific actually i don't

want to go to the specific and then talk

about politicians okay so let me step

back a bit

in this election folks only get one year

to prove themselves

because there's another election in

2022. shouldn't

every politician have to go through a

one-year free trial

give me one year let me prove to you

that we can make our solutions work to

fix california because i'm actually here

providing solutions let's keep going hey

trump

is that look he became president with

zero experience but the guy's been in

the media the guy's been

yeah for

but my point is this trump made it

acceptable for anyone to say all right

[ __ ] it i'm giving it a shot

whatever it may be whereas i think like

pat said respect

i mean it's honestly uh totally

misleading to suggest that oh

because of donald trump it's like oh no

the reason i'm running for governor

is because i believe we have solutions

that the californian people want

and nobody else is providing those and

that's giving back

that's what politics should be about not

about enriching yourself

or getting donations from netflix

because you gave them an exemption to

stay open as an essential

business so they could keep filming

videos while at the same time pocketing

a three million dollar donation

from reed hastings the co-ceo of netflix

folks that's what's wrong

that's what happened with gavin newsom

gavin newsom pockets three million

dollars from the co-ceo of netflix and

surprise surprise netflix is deemed an

essential business

while one-third of california's

businesses go bankrupt

come on folks and for the other

well the restaurants one-third of

california restaurants i went bankrupt

but for the other businesses

that stayed open you think they got

their llc fees waived that year

nope even though they had to be shut

down it's unacceptable

yet our governor's dining with lobbyists

at the french laundry

no masks during pete coven

let's keep going to getting out there

and think you could do your thing but if

you have zero experience i can't believe

i'm going to say this but

adam that's a good point um

it happens more often but yeah let that

go through your head a little bit anyway

johnny cash yeah but you got to cut that

short clip

to your just cut that out for me to your

credit man and your point the whole time

he was sitting there and i actually said

it

later on the interview because i didn't

want to hammer the guy but i have been

in politics and i was i wasn't

in on the other side of it i don't know

you you literally wrote speeches for

chris christie

yes yes so now they do thank you for

that yeah but the

yeah but the the the side i'm i'm trying

to say is is that the whole time and i

waited two hours

and then he finally went on the

offensive and i actually pointed out

someone was like congratulations you

finally went on the offensive yeah and i

texted pat afterwards because you were

talking about giving you know he

he needs a little he needs encouragement

and he does have a bright future and i

said well if he if he's going to do this

and he he's going to make drastic

changes like that he has to make it

about the opponent so anytime anybody if

you're ever thinking about running for

politics you get this one let me see my

youtube channel

free this is the value entertainment all

right all he had to do

at any moment and he still didn't do it

in in the video that he did

in response he had to admit that what he

was saying

was outrageous but these are outrageous

times there you go that's all he had to

do

he oh my gosh come on what's the

difference

god okay all right fine okay i mean look

my

ideas are emergency ideas a state of

emergency

on homelessness education traffic and

housing

they are bold ideas that's our slogan

that's our slogan out with the old

in with the bolt

uh whatever at this point whatever we'll

finish this to say

listen i don't want to put california

under occupation

but it's a state of emergency i'm

nobody's putting california on this this

is the stuff that's

mind-blowing i'm having trouble even

finishing this response video

because that is such a loaded statement

gerard

folk folks here we like take a

class on logic logic speech and debate

and the first thing they teach you about

are these things called

logical fallacies a loaded

statement is one in which you impute

false

information within a question or

statement to mischaracterize your

opponent

it's another style version of poisoning

the well it's bullcrap

and critical thinking identifies that

kind of bull crap

nobody said that

unbelievable gavin newsom

screwed up so bad for so long that we

have to treat this

as the emergency that it is that's

literally

what my plan is and i deal with policies

i don't want to just sit here and rant

about the existing governor

we know what problems there are in

california californians don't need to be

educated on

wow we have a housing crisis we have a

housing affordability issue we have a

homeless crisis we have a schooling

issue we're ranked 40th in the country

bottom 20 percent for the fifth largest

economy in the world are you kidding

californians know we have problems we

need bold solutions

we got to talk solutions and that's what

i do

invite me back and give me a chance to

provide my bold solutions

and then we'll have solutions then we

can actually have a real dialogue

but statements like this are nonsense

nobody used the word occupation except

you

nobody even remotely suggested that

it's ridiculous get off of him put it on

gavin newsom

treat it as something that's temporary

in a response to bad administration

it's not a temporary solution

homelessness is not going to be

here today gone tomorrow we're going to

stop people from living on our streets

within 60 days but our emergency

facilities will exist as

an emergency facility for a social

safety net

and we're going to hope to reduce the

population that is reliant upon our

emergency facilities

but we realize that mental health takes

years to solve we have a mental health

crisis in the state we don't get

educated on

mental health in middle school or high

school that's going to be one of the

first things i change too

we have physical education pe do we have

m-e mental education

of course not nobody's even heard of

that

the problems that we have in the state

are so interwoven

that you have to solve all of the issues

together not just

one of the issues and you certainly

can't mischaracterize the solutions i

provide

he has to come in and i don't want to do

this i don't want to do this

i do want to solve the problems again

mischaracterizing and i know he's doing

a hypothetical here

but i do want to help people who don't

have food i do want to help people who

are starving

oh you have libertarians like me

republicans like other people saying

this is an overreach of government but

at least it's temporary and at least he

he knows that it's bad okay so look you

can come from a libertarian point of

view and that's fine because

in my rallies i actually regularly say

we need to get the government out of our

lives

and that is not in a way to say that we

need no government

but we need the government to stop

trying to tell us what to do listen to

some of these ironies okay

people say oh we shouldn't have

legalized gambling in california which i

plan to legalize gambling

because oh my gosh that might lead to

gambling addictions how about you get

the government out of our lives stop

telling us what the heck to do

or think or what we can or can't do and

if somebody has a gambling addiction you

treat the gambling addiction you treat

the mental health

problem that underlays the gambling

addiction

you don't or you provide the proper

education to give folks the career

opportunity through a proposal that i

have like future schools

where you actually teach and invest in

california so you could save money in

california

and you actually prevent these potential

mental health issues in the first place

that's how you get ahead let's keep

going

now it could be bs everything that the

government does that's temporary

the the the federal income tax was

temporary measure oh and let me keep

going again emergency facilities already

said not temporary but i do want to also

say

i'm also a big fan of reducing the

amount of government that we have in

things like

housing remember government comes in it

tends to make housing more complicated

and worse they did the same thing with

cannabis

they do the same thing with mental

health right now they do the same thing

with with energy why is gas so expensive

in california it's because of the

government

why do we have blackouts it's because of

the government

i realize that and so i'm looking for

common sense solutions

i do also though understand that there

are times government is very important

otherwise we'd have anarchy let's keep

going a hundred years later we're still

here right

so we all know that in the back of our

head and that's why we give pushback we

know that you're taking this power and

you're never giving it back

now the other side who wants to hear the

utopian butterflies and hell yeah we're

gonna

we're gonna heal all the homeless we're

they've been trying to do it for ten

thousand years

utopian butterflies you've never had a

coordinated effect from the governor

ever oh man this is frustrating

got this plan and this plan is we're

going to round them up and throw them

somewhere else where you don't see them

dude are you kidding me again

mischaracterizing ah why am i finishing

this

now the wild thing the craziest part

about this was rudy giuliani in the

sit-down that you had with him literally

said

the first thing you have to do is clean

up the streets you have to get rid of

the homeless it's the very first thing

rudy said

he said you can you can lower in the

interview with you he said you can

lower murders by 90 but nobody ever sees

a murder so they won't believe crime is

going down

unless you get rid of the graffiti and

you clean up the homeless he said until

i got rid of the squeegee guys

nobody believed new york had a

turnaround right so in that time he's

he his methodology isn't necessarily

wrong

his messaging really really is and and

that's where it's great feedback for him

that's great feedback and by the way

knowing him he's probably listening

somebody's going to tell him about this

he's going to listen to this oh they

told us and hopefully he'll take

that feedback so if you enjoyed this

live all right listen

our messaging in their podcast

my messaging is not as good as it could

have been

but i will always make my position clear

know that

about me thanks for watching i've got a

rally to go to now

[Music]

bye

you
