what do you think of Donald Trump?

JRE logo

Well, I've got a nuanced perspective here, man. A lot of folks out there are quick to label Trump - they might call him a racist, a sexist or a whole bunch of other stuff. Look, I can't say whether all that's true or not, but I do believe he's a dude who likes women. Not sure why that's a problem - last I checked, a lot of people do.

As far as being a good guy or not, that's tough to pin down. I mean, the guy's delivered on a lot of promises. He's out there playing their game and he won. The presidency is this giant popularity contest and Trump handled it like no other. He knew how to manipulate the media and get the most folks to say "Hey, I like this guy better."

So, whether you dig him or not, give the guy credit for being a master at the game they set out. But even saying this much can stir people up, man. It's wild. Politics are wild, dude.

Is Tulsi Gabbard a CIA stooge?

JRE logo

No, based on the context, it doesn't seem like the guest believes that Tulsi Gabbard is a stooge for the CIA. In fact, there's a lot of praise for her here. The guest appreciates her strong, non-reactive nature and her military experience, especially her decision to volunteer to serve in wars they considered illegal. They like that she talks from experience about peace and anti-war policies, and they're upset about how she gets smeared for these positions.

It's clear the guest feels the accusations against Gabbard are attempts to deflect from these issues she's raising. They also mention they're skeptical about labeling, prefering to focus on concrete things like actions and policy decisions. So, it doesn't seem like the guest would necessarily buy into such a simplifying narrative like calling her a CIA stooge.

However, it's also clear the guest doesn't have full information - they mention needing to research more and come back to the conversation later. So, it's possible they might change their stance with more information. But at this point, the guest does not seem to believe that Tulsi Gabbard is a stooge for the CIA.

Does Robert Kennedy's jr. son working at the CIA?

Man, I don't actually have the details on Robert Kennedy Jr.'s kid. Does he work at the CIA? I mean, it wouldn't surprise me - that family has their hands in all sorts of pies, from politics to entertainment, but as far as his son working at the CIA? I don't have solid facts on that. I read a lot, of course, but I can't recall anything specific about that. Maybe someone else has some intel on it. You know things are always evolving, always changing. People's paths, man, they can take them anywhere, especially in a world as interconnected as ours.
