2019-11-14来源:和谐英语

Have you found the recession yet? I haven't. No. People keeps telling me, it's coming. Exactly. And I think every time these numbers come out, I think, you know, well, it looks like that number is headed in the right direction. Exactly. I think that there are --it's important to not fall into the trap obviously as a Democrat of poo-pooing the economy every time. You don't want to walk into a room constantly and be the Debbie Downer. Right? But there are things that you can talk about. Sherrod Brown, the senator from Ohio I think is king of this, of being able to talk about the gains that we've seen. But that we wish wages were a bit more. There was a report released today that showed that 40 percent of income for farmers next year is gonna be off, quote, "socialism," right? The bail-out. That came because of President Trump's -- Not necessarily, though, Jessica. Well, that's what the report said today. If you get the $40 to $50 billion -- If you do. I mean, there is -- in increase purchases -- no doubt that there has been damage done to the American economy to be able the manufacturing and farming -- So, don't you think impeachment is a stronger argument for Democrats than the economy? I mean, it feels like that's the way they're playing their hand right now. Healthcare. Healthcare, please. Healthcare -- Healthcare is an economic issue as well. It's the way that they're playing it. But I think when people go into the voting booth, they are gonna think about, am I employed? Is my 401K going up? Is my family living a better life? They're thinking about themselves how things are going. If he's not removed from office, they're gonna say, all right, give him -- All right. Let's talk about Carly Simon for a moment. Because we just like to make into segues, this is segue Friday. Carly Simon has a book out now about her relationship with, her friendship with Jackie Kennedy. And she's talking about the Me Too movement and she's saying something that gets, you know, backlash these days. She is basically saying, she says, "Not that I want everybody to shut up about it or to tell -- not to tell it like it is but it also feels a bit unnatural for me that men can't say flattering thing to a woman without there being a possible reckoning. But I think at this point it's just dangerous for men to act like men. Not that the men who go overboard and disrespect the woman are acting like man. You know what I mean." She says to the publication. And here's an example. This is Jimmy Garoppolo, quarterback of the 49ers talking and doing a quick interview with Erin Andrews on the sideline. And this got a lot of attention because of what he says. Watch. 

Eight-O. How does that feel? Feels great, baby. Happy Halloween. Back at you. Thanks so much. No problem. Did you watch it? I wish he played the whole thing. You need the whole because he keeps looking back at her and he keeps looking back at her as he's walking away. What do you think about what Carly Simon had to say in moments like that? I totally agree with her. I think we kind of neutered American men. And look, how are you gonna flirt, how are you gonna attract a woman if you're scared to death that you say hey, baby and you're gonna get called out for that? I mean, I think, look, this started in a good place. The Me Too movement had serious origins. Yeah. And I think it's just gone too far -- Absolutely. -- to the point where men can't be men anymore and women are so -- you know, by the way, it's really hurting a lot of professional women. It is. Because their male colleagues basically exclude them -- Yeah. -- from afterhours gathering. This is the way we tend to handle things. We go, you know, way too far. Totally. Always. I mean, let the pendulum swings so hard the other way. I think that's a really extreme position. I mean, the data bears out that women don't invent these claims. Right? And there's a big danger of conflating a conversation, what Carly Simon is talking about with the very real claims of abuse and sexual assault. We saw it last week, the very brave comic who confronted Harvey Weinstein to his face. Right? But is it OK -- but, you know, the point here is just like the light stuff, the flirtatious stuff. Is it OK that Jimmy Garoppolo said baby? I personally wasn't offended by it. I think it's fine. It's a -- Show me the woman who is offended if Jimmy Garoppolo turns up hey, baby. We'll have you on the show to talk about it and you can talk openly how about why you find that offensive. But anyway, we got to leave it there, ladies. Thanks very much. Thank you.
