I don't think that like I remember and I'm gonna get blowback on this. Look I don't think the W had malicious intent. I think he was well intended. You know he failed at things but I think he was well intended. I think that's probably a logical perspective and I think Dick Cheney is probably Satan. You think so? I think Dick Cheney was running the show straight from hell. That's why he had that bunker deep deep down under the- But I think that bunker existed. He was right next to hell. It wasn't like he was like, it's not like he was like, I need a bunker. He had a straight shot straight to hell. That's what it was. It was down there. That's how it was heated. That's why it was so warm. That's what he was, remember when he was in the bunker after 9-11? There was a Dick Cheney in the bunker. How come George Bush is playing golf? W is out there with a big target on his forehead. He was in DC and there was a separation of- Of powers. I don't know. And then we all saw the Adam McKay movie. You're like how much is that true? I know right? How much is that true? Imagine the power to- because Dick Cheney, I also doubt everything. I always quote everything I hear about, I'm kind of like cut it in half, which makes me kind of still think Trump is absolutely crazy. But Dick Cheney is there, and I don't think he cares. There's no- the narrative has been set for him. There's no kind of like, you're not going to believe this, but Dick Cheney is one of the funniest storytellers. There's no changing the narrative of Dick Cheney. Like George W is painting and he does a lot of painting. Painting is kind of lovely. It's cute, sweet stuff. It shows you where his mind is at. This is where he chooses to spend his time. Katrina, he didn't go there right away. Well he hates bar people according to Kanye West. But Dick Cheney is a completely different animal. He shot his friend in the face and his friend apologized. Yeah, but he didn't do it on- he obviously didn't do it on purpose. He was probably drunk and then he disappeared for 24 hours. Do you know that? He didn't immediately turn himself in. Oh really? Yeah, yeah, yeah. He was most likely drinking. They were doing what's called a canned hunt where they open up these gates and they let these birds fly out and they just start blasting them and he shot his friend. But it was- it could have been a mistake. It was a mistake. But he was probably hammered. I'm known as a Dick Cheney apologist. Ah, nice. So explain this Halliburton. So he was the CEO of Halliburton. He leaves Halliburton and then he becomes the vice president and then he gives Halliburton these no-bid contracts to rebuild Iraq after they blew it up. So explain that as an apologist. I would say one. No bid contracts happen often. That's what I've heard. How can you chew another one of those? My heart has pounded out on my chest before. Because I'm a real man. I'm more manly than you.
