LARRY: ALL RIGHT, WE WELCOME
BACK MERCEDES SCHLAPP, THIS TIME
ON SET.
>> MY FAVORITE PLACE TO BE.
LARRY: UNBELIEVABLE, FORMER
WHITE HOUSE STRATEGIC COMS
DIRECTOR AND MONICA CROWLEY,
FORMER ASSISTANT TREASURY
SECRETARY, HOST OF MONICA
CROWLEY PODCAST, WHO HAS BEEN ON
SET BEFORE.
I CAN’T HELP MYSELF.
TRUMP HAS NOT BEEN PRESIDENT FOR
HOW LONG?
>> 1MONTHS.7 MONTHS?
LARRY: THAT IS LAUGHABLE.
>> LARRY, THEY’RE BLAMING YOU
TOO.
YOU WERE WITH TRUMP.
YOU’RE PART OF INFLATION
PROBLEM.
>> ME TOO.
I GUESS I’M AT FAULT TOO.
IF IT WEREN’T SO PATHETIC IT
WOULD BE LAUGHABLE.
HONESTLY EXACTLY WHAT OBAMA AND
BIDEN DID WHEN THEY CAME INTO
OFFICE.
THEY BLAMED PRESIDENT BUSH FOR
ANY KIND OF BAD ECONOMIC NEWS.
THIS IS WHAT THEY DO BECAUSE
THEY REFUSE TO TAKE ANY
RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE
CATASTROPHIC AFTEREFFECTS OF
THEIR OWN ECONOMIC POLICY.
YOU KNOW WHY, LARRY?
IT IS ALL INTENTIONAL.
IT IS EASIER FOR THEM TO FLICK
AWAY THE RESPONSIBILITY AND THE
BLAME ON TO PRESIDENT TRUMP AND
OTHER PEOPLE LIKE YOU THAN TO
ACTUALLY EXPLAIN TO THE AMERICAN
PEOPLE THAT THIS IS WHAT THEY
INTENDED ALL ALONG.
LARRY: I READ THE CLYBURN THING
I WENT HUH, REALLY?
MERCEDES, MORE IMPORTANTLY, THIS
IS ONE THING THEY CANNOT DO,
THEY CAN’T GET BABY FORMULA ON
THE GROCERY SHELVES.
THIS IMPORT OPERATION, FLY
FORMULA IS A COMPLETE FAILURE.
THIS IS NOT GETTING STUFF ON FOR
ORDINARY AMERICANS?
THIS IS A CATASTROPHIC FAILURE.
>> KNOWING THEM THEY WILL BLAME
PUTIN OR TRUMP FOR THE BABY
FORMULA.
IT IS TRUMP’S FAULT.
SERIOUSLY, IT TAKES ME BACK TO
"OPERATION WARP SPEED" WHERE
PRESIDENT TRUMP WAS ABLE TO
COORDINATE ALL THESE FEDERAL
AGENCIES, WORK WITH CORPORATIONS
TO GET A MOVE ON, WORKING WITH
THE GOVERNORS IN THESE STATES TO
GET A MOVE ON A VERY SUCCESSFUL
VACCINE ROLL OUT WHICH OF COURSE
BIDEN, KAMALA, THEY WANT TO TAKE
CREDIT FOR THAT BUT WHEN IT
COMES TO THE BABY FORMULA
SITUATION, THIS IS A GRAVE
SITUATION BECAUSE THE FDA KNEW
ABOUT THIS MONTHS BEFORE,
PRESIDENT BIDEN AND HIS TEAM
KNEW ABOUT THIS MONTHS BEFORE.
THEY FAILED TO INFORM THE
PARENTS.
PARENTS AND MOMS IN PARTICULAR
HAVE, NOW THEY’RE IN PANIC MODE.
THEY SHOULD HAVE BEEN ABLE TO
PREPARE FOR THIS.
THIS SECONDLY, LARRY, THIS NEVER
SHOULD BE HAPPENING IN THE
UNITED STATES.
WE ARE RECEIVING FORMULA FROM
AUSTRALIA, FROM GERMANY.
WE DON’T HAVE ENOUGH SUPPLY HERE
IN THE UNITED STATES FOR OUR
CHILDREN?
THIS IS, THIS IS SUCH A SERIOUS
CATASTROPHIC SITUATION THAT
WE’RE SEEING HERE.
LARRY: THIS IS SOMETHING THEY
COULD ACTUALLY DELIVER ON, OKAY?
THEY BUNGLED IT OR THE FDA
BUNGLED IT AND THEY COULD HAVE
RECOVERED BUT THEY HAVEN’T,
MONICA.
ACTUALLY I MUST SAY THIS IN
GENERAL ABOUT THE BIDENS WHAT
ALWAYS SURPRISES ME HOW THEY DO
NOT RECOVER ON ANY SUBJECT, THEY
DO NOT RECOVER AND THAT INCLUDES
ENERGY, THAT THEY DON’T RECOVER
ON THAT.
THE WHOLE COUNTRY SUPPORTS WAR
ON RUSSIA ON BEHALF OF
UKRAINIANS, THEY DON’T RECOVER
ON THAT.
THEY DON’T OPEN UP THE SPIGOTS
TO GET GAS PRICES LOWER, DIESEL
TRUCKS TO HELP "FRUCKERS" AND
THEY CAN’T GET THAT RIGHT.
LAST BUT NOT LEAST, BLAMING
TRUMP FOREINFLATION.
I PUT IT OUT THERE, THEY CAN’T
GET ANYTHING RIGHT.
>> BECAUSE THEY DON’T WANT TO,
THAT IS THE DIRTY LITTLE SECRET
HERE.
LARRY: OY.
>> ALL THIS IS INTENTIONAL.
IT IS ALL BY DESIGN.
ANY NORMAL PRESIDENT WOULD
COURSE CORRECT GIVEN THE FACT
THAT THE POLICIES ARE FAILING
CAUSING ENORMOUS SUFFERING FOR
THE AMERICAN PEOPLE AND IF
NOTHING ELSE, DRAGGING DOWN POLL
NUMBERS FOR HIMSELF AND HIS
PARTY GOING INTO A CRITICAL
ELECTION.
YOU WOULD THINK JUST BEING
MOTIVATED FOR SHEER POLITICAL
SURVIVABILITY THEY WOULD CHANGE
COURSE LIKE JIMMY CARTER DID AT
THE END OF HIS TERM, BUT NO.
THAT IS THE TELL, LARRY, AND
MERCY, ALL OF THIS IS BY DESIGN.
BABY FORMULA SHORTAGE AS
HORRIFYING, IMMORAL THAT IS,
THAT IN A WAY LIKE THE CANARY IN
THE COAL MINE FOR WHAT BIDEN
KEEPS WARNING US ABOUT, MORE
WIDESPREAD FOOD SHORTAGES.
THEY WANT TO SEE HOW THE THE
AMERICAN PEOPLE RESPOND TO THIS
BEFORE THEY BRING ON MORE
DESTRUCTION.
LARRY: I WOULDN’T SAY IT’S A
GREAT VICTORY FOR THEM, THE
AMERICAN RESPONSE.
MERCY, GO AHEAD, YOU WERE GOING
TO SAY.
>> IT IS INTERESTING, I DON’T
KNOW IF IT IS INTENTION OR JUST
PURE INCOMPETENCE.
IN MY OPINION YOU SURROUND
YOURSELF WITH A STAFF THAT THEY
ARE DOERS, GET THINGS DONE.
WE SAW THIS UNDER PRESIDENT
TRUMP.
HE WOULD SURROUND HIMSELF WITH
INDIVIDUALS THAT HAD EXPERTISE,
KNOWLEDGE, HAVE THE CONNECTIONS
WHETHER IT WOULD BE WITH THE
GOVERNORS, WHETHER WITH
CORPORATIONS, TO DEAL WITH A
CRISIS AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE.
YOU PUT YOURSELF IN A POSITION
OF STRENGTH.
IF WE’RE ENERGY INDEPENDENT,
WE’RE IN A POSITION OF STRENGTH
FROM A NATIONAL SECURITY AND
ECONOMIC SECURITY STANDPOINT.
I THINK I LEARNED THAT FROM
LARRY KUDLOW WHILE I WORKED WITH
HIM IN THE WHITE HOUSE BUT IT IS
TRUE.
THIS IS THE PROBLEM WITH THE
FACT THERE IS INCOMPETENCE.
YOU DON’T SEE SECRETARIES LIKE
HHS SECRETARY OR ANY OF HIS
CABINET MEMBERS GOING OUT THERE
SELLING HIS MESSAGE.
THAT IS NOT HAPPENING.
THEY EVER QUIET.
YOU HAVE A VERY WEAK
VICE PRESIDENT.
WHO IS STANDARD-BEARER OF
DEMOCRAT PARTY?
JOE BIDEN IS NOT CAPABLE OF
DOING THAT.
LARRY: TRUMP AND THE TRUMP
ADMINISTRATION WOULD WORK
PARTICULARLY DURING THE HEIGHT
OF THE PANDEMIC WHICH WAS VERY
DIFFICULT, RIGHT?
WE WORKED I WAS ON THE PHONE
WITH GAVIN NEWSOM.
I’VE KNOWN HIM A LONG TIME WHEN
HE WAS MAYOR OF SAN FRAN BUT I
WAS.
I WAS HELPING PHIL MURPHY
GOVERNOR OF NEW JERSEY WHO IS
CLASSY GUY.
I DON’T AGREE WITH HIS POLITICS
BUT WE COULD DO THAT.
THIS CROWD DOESN’T WANT TO DO
THAT.
THEY’RE KIND OF MEAN AND NASTY
MONICA.
THAT IS THE POINT I’M MAKING.
I KNOW, I WILL CUT MERCY SOME
SCHLAPP, CUT HER SOME SLACK ON
THIS, I THINK THIS IS WHAT WOKE
PROGRESSIVISM DELIVERS,
INCOMPETENCE, UTTER
INCOMPETENCE.
BIG GOVERNMENT, SOCIALISM, WHAT
DO YOU EXPECT.
>> I ADORE YOU BOTH I THINK
INCOMPETENCE IS FAR TOO KIND
BECAUSE I THINK EVEN
INCOMPETENCE GENERATES SOME,
AGAIN OUT OF POLITICAL
SURVIVABILITY YOU WOULD WANT TO
CHANGE COURSE AND CHANGE, NO
THIS IS ALL ABOUT THE
FUNDAMENTAL TRANSFORMATION OF
THE NATION WHICH REALLY BEGAN
DECADES AGO BUT ACCELERATED
UNDER OBAMA AND NOW BIDEN PUT IT
ON STEROIDS.
YOU CAN BE MEAN AND LARRY YOU
CAN BE MEAN AND WANT TO FIX
PROBLEMS.
THEY’RE MEAN AND THEY DON’T WANT
TO FIX PROBLEMS.
>> I CAN AGREE WITH THAT.
I DON’T GET SHELLACKED OR
SCHLAPPED.
LARRY: I WON’T CUT YOU ANY
SCHLAPP, I AM SAYING THE
PROGRESSIVE MODEL BREEDS THIS,
OKAY?
THEY’RE VERY MEAN ABOUT IT.
THEY’RE NOT NICE ABOUT IT.
THEY’RE MEAN ABOUT IT.
PROGRESSIVES HAVE TO BE MEAN.
IT DOESN’T MATTER.
THEY WILL GET CHEAPED, THE
CALVARY IS COMING, THE CALVARY
IS COMING.
I HOPE THE CALVARY KNOWS --
>> WHAT TO DO NEXT.
