Darlene thinks we currently don't have a President and Trump don't incite a potential political coup to overthrow the government. Shouldn't be able to run a hotdog stand.
I know 8th graders that have more facts about the world and life in their little pinky, than this clown will ever know. Old tired talking points that have no basis in reality. 40 years of the Feds taking monies away from states, leaving them financially responsible for paying for things the" right" says they are for, but then defund. The Republican party has systematically and purposefully destroyed the American dream in favor for supporting their puppet master's that put them into office ( the uber rich).
Then they blow a gasket when no one wants to play their game about defining what a woman is. KBJ should have said one example of a woman is the Vice-President of the USA. They roll the proverbial stone that rolls right back onto them!
She is totally against facts that are researched and proven. She's horrible. Ugh... She "knows" her economics. Yeah okay.... She's annoying and very very under educated and horribly misguided.
Anyone who doesn't answer simple questions simply is lying just so we can't hold them responsible for their answers. That's the exact definition of deceit.

I’m not saying she is a fascist, but this is literally a fascist propaganda technique. Your opponent is both a powerless stooge and a mortal threat. In her defense, she did not strike me as terribly bright, so I don’t think she is aware of the contradiction. I also have zero respect for anyone who holds a “controversial” position, agrees to an interview that might touch on this position, then refuses to stand by their position. She knows her position is dishonest.
This woman is infuriating. I've never seen an interview with someone who is so oppositional defiant. When she's confronted with something she doesn't understand, it's a "lie".
He's just stating the controversy that she and her elk have started. And I think it's a very relevant that David brings up their controversy to them in an interview with them.
This was an absolutely brilliant way to conduct an interview. I really like the breaking down of the questions to see exactly where the divide begins. I would like to see more candidates interviewed in this way. Was also a very friendly, pleasant and constructive tone. Great job David!
Sorry Darlene Swaffar but you failing to name Joe R Biden as the CURRENT US PRESIDENT would cause me to not even consider voting for you if I was a resident of your district. Asking who the current POTUS is should be as easy as a person stating their name, address, and telephone number. I don't care how scared you are of offending Donald Trump's cult.
SHE CAN SAY THE SAME THING ABOUT THE BUFFOON, HE GOT HELP FROM PUTIN, AND PUTIN PUBLICLY AKNOWLEDGE THAT. NOW, IS THE REASON I USED TO SAY THAT THE BUFFOON WASN'T A LEGITIMATE PRESIDENT.

Honestly I don't have a problem with this, he's the one in power and it's the person in power that is responsible for things. Her claim that he isn't the president is different from whether he's in power or not.

She did kind of skirt that one - she did allow for (though still wouldn't say) that Biden was the "illegitimate" president. Of course that's a meaningless concept anyway. She can claim that he was made president illegitimately, but that's kind of beside the point that he _is_ president - he's leading the country, whether or not she likes it or think he should be leading the country.

berty boomstick the worldwide oil market is absolutely gigantic so any percentage change represents a lot of oil entry. Further, the oil being extracted in the area this pipeline serves is not cheap if it’s the tar sands. In order for this area to be profitable, oil prices need to be north of $70/barrel (some say $65 if that represents cost how many companies will jump at the chance to sell product at a wash). Oil prices are volatile and recently went to negative values not that long ago. So, how much use would this pipeline get should oil prices drop? Hence, my surprise at it equating to much of anything. I’ve heard a saying related to Saudi Arabia and Texas about sticking a straw in the ground and getting oil. Now, keep in mind it’s been a few years since I’ve invested in oil companies but that implies comparatively cheap. Now, I may have heard a dirty, rotten rumor that pipelines need oil flowing through to reduce wear and tear. So, you potentially have a pipeline with non consistent use and increased wear and tear cost because anaerobic bacteria love the smell of metal at really any time of day and the volatility of the oil market limits use. And, all this for oil not directed into the US marketplace.
Reality is known to have a liberal bias. The KXL pipeline is a replacement pipeline. It also just pipes crude to a shipping facility to send it overseas for processing. Jack crap to do with US energy independence.
An excellent interview by David - not getting "triggered" into allowing the batshit crazy dialogue that usually ensues with these intellectually short minded individuals to spread their crazy ideas... he maintained control of the dialogue and kept on point to show the faults...

I think this was a masterclass in how to have a civil conversation, yet disagree with someone 100%. There was no yelling, no heated discussion, no name-calling. Very well done.
Whether you like David or not whenever he gives interviews he always allows his guests to express themselves and their ideas fully without interruption. He doesn't ever get into a shouting contest with guests or have people talking over each other. David wants these folks to express their ideas clearly and fully because it makes it that much easier for him to refute the crap out of it after they talk.

@@mattm8932 "If you have the facts, argue the facts. If you don't have the facts, argue the rules. If you don't have the facts or the rules, insult." Not the exact quotation, but close enough.
That's astute. There is a reason, however, that I suggest is borne out by history time and again. I think a majority of people delegate their thinking to others. Historically and anthropologically, this has created an affinity toward strong male psychopaths. Look at socialistic autocratic regimes, organized crime families, and the modern Republican Party for examples. In most cases, with a few exceptions (Mario Puzo's The Godfather, e.g.), they want those leaders to be dumber so they can feel smart by comparison, while the smart ones tend to be weeded out early as threats (which was a distinct plot conflict in The Godfather). The O.G. Republicans -- namely Lincoln, Grant, and Sherman -- were whip-smart. Read Grant's memoirs, Sherman's memoirs, and anything written by Lincoln (specifically the Second Inaugural ["With malice toward none and charity for all... do all which may achieve and cherish a just and last peace...] and the Gettysburg Address [which needs to be reread in light of the Ukraine war]) for proof of this. Putin, on the other hand, is probably not very smart, and Trump thinks he's a genius, which, by comparison, is probably accurate.
And also, if the death tax she’s citing is not a federal, but actually a state tax, then shouldn’t she take it up with those who pass those taxes in her state of Florida? (Hint: it’s her own party)
There IS an inheritance tax, but it starts well above what my siblings & I inherited when our mother passed & that chunk of change was enough to solve a few big problems around here.
They are completely unacquainted with truth now. The ex-GOP is now the Dunning-Kruger Party; they have no idea what they don't know, thanks to decades of Limbaugh, FOX, etc.
Even so, Trump recently said "The Strategic Petroleum Reserve has been ‘mostly empty’ for decades", which is false, and it actually fell under Trump. She has zero idea what she is talking about - on taxation, oil/gas, and Biden.
Even though LESS OIL WAS USED...BIG OIL PROFITS OVER 170 BILLION. THE PROBLEM IS NOT OIL PRODUCTION ITS OIL COMPANY GREED DRIVING THE PRICE OF GAS. HOLD THEM ACCOUNTABLE AND STOP BLAMING EVERYONE ELSE.
I had to stop watching when the 1% fact was dropped on her head. The willful ignorance and outright lying from people like Darlene and millions of others just like her is enraging. To be in possession of cold hard facts, and then being made to feel as if WE are the ones who are lying, makes me want to banshee scream.
Worst part is, when you inevitably DO express your dissatisfaction with the lies and manipulation expressed by these charlatans, they'll call you crazy. Like, they'll lie, cheat, and steal to their heart's content and when you reach your personal tolerance limit for their BS, they'll condescend to you and call you a Karen or something.
I don't know where you're getting at with this but I know several people that make that kind of money. I personally work at least 120 hours every 2 week check with alot of other times getting up to about 168 hours and anywhere in between that. Alot of that money is overtime. Plus a safety bonus every quarter and also a monthly bonus and yearly bonus. It's very possible.
Interesting that she believes “our” oil somehow belongs to the government of the USA. She commented that we get money into the “treasury” when “we” export oil. Does she not know that the oil produced in America is privately owned and goes wherever it is paid for? Unbelievable how anyone will run for office regardless of how little knowledge they have
Look at the Republicans in office. They love ignorance. Hell, they put forward bills without consulting any experts in the field. It's bound to be terrible. But you know, what do you expect from a voting block who's also ignorant. A lot of ignorant people in the country.
In essence they want to give credit to a President (DJT} for manipulating the oil market which in fact would make them Socialist or Communist by nature. Too dumb to understand that they don't really want the Government involved in the free market? So which one do you "Patriots" want? Double speak and the hypocrisy is off the charts. When you have no platform or actual facts to back your ridiculous claims, you just throw your toy trucks out of the sandbox and whine.
She could, at least most of the time, said Biden was not legitime president rght know, then she continued to say some other stuff what confounded and confused it in her last statements.
KNick - I would LOVE to believe they are gifting because i don't want to believe there are people this mind numbingly, moronically, stupid......but i can't be sure.
Whenever she says something that is not factually correct and you ask her questions to show that, she either refuses to answer your questions or else she dodges them by bringing up something else. That seems to indicate she knows she is not telling the truth.
Welllll, good to know! Thank you for sharing this information. And unfortunately my 92yr old Republican mother votes and somehow still thinks the orange menace is making her life better? Is obviously NOT! She won't vote anymore, says "I'm not going to register Again!!" Yay!!!
@@elainstill1671 Mine too for a long time as lucid as she is. I have had to sstop talking politics w the fam just to keep the peace Thank the Lord one of HER oldest friends at 90 convinced her that FOX is not news. There is hope over time.
She does a wonderful job destroying her own arguments. Imagine her advocating or voting on issuses she really doesn't understand!? It could end anywhere unintentionally out of ignorance. Not a polititian I'd trust!!
Is she really a politician? This is the 2nd united statian I hear wanting the keystone pipeline. They are convinced that it will reduce prices but it seems to me that it won't have a big effect. For one thing, who is going to pay for it and how much will the pipeline cost? Over here in Canada, some are against it and some are in favor of it. It seems to me that the simpler solution is to not sell minivans and gasguzzlers.
It’s so funny how she said she didn’t know the answer about the keystone pipeline, Then David answers - she dismisses it is incorrect - he says that’s a fact - and she says well your facts wrong? Insanity this is truly insanity.
I kinda felt bad for her because there were certain things she said that were just completely untrue and you can tell David is trying so hard to keep her on track like a child.
“I think” …she said over & over. Her zoom lighting was #dismal.” “I’m the Medicare lady.” What a mess. “Seniors have bought this to my attention.” “It’s not up to me.” “Correct” “i know there was some recommendations of 12% & 15% tax.” “I think about it.” “Look I’m a success story.” Yes she is in the top 1% globally if she makes $35k a year. She is out nearly 8,000,000,000 people globally very very wealthy. “I’m very successful, I grew up poor.” “I’d like to see overtime taxes done away with.” My God …”solvency” “insolvent” …”I have a lot of friends “oath.” “conspiracy” “I ask for oath” “God’s protection.” “Ben Franklin.” “All conspiracy related” “maybe your sources might be inaccurate.” .floundering is putting it kindly. My gawd
My mother used to say bless her heart, or his heart, when people weren’t -shiniest tool in the shed. And she wasn’t a judgemental person she really meant, there is no help.
Much admiration for your patience David. Facts are just facts, not something to agree with or not, one may not like them but that doesn’t change the fact! Thank you David for your intelligence.
I suspect -Karen- Darlene thinks "poor" means her parents could only afford to buy her a Chevy instead of a BMW. It also goes to show that one doesn't need to be smart to run a successful business. Just amoral and willing to take advantage of seniors to sell them crappy overpriced insurance.
I notice that the people they run for office on the Republic side the never want to answer simple yes or no questions. Also she can't even want to answer who the president is now. Something is wrong with that woman. It me it is a waste of time talking to those people.
I would fine with that if she had something to actually say other made up oil statistics and repeating the words energy Independence. Like listening to someone trying to find unicorns.

What’s kind of crazy is that they think it’s appalling that a Supreme Court Justice can’t define the term “woman” but they can’t tell whose in the White House.
David even let her have the qualification of "even if you don't agree with it". I hated Trump but he was the legal President for 4 years. It's that simple
Au countraire if she’s fleecing old people by selling the supplemental Medicare insurance, she should make out like gangbusters when Medicare is well and truly dead or at least virtually toothless. She can sell them straight up full plans. The only thing Medicare about Medicare supplemental plans is the misleading name.
They all say the same exact things over and over. Complain, complain, complain and offer absolutely ZERO solutions. This lady is delusional to add on to that.
This woman should learn how to google: 'California is one of the 38 states that does not have an estate tax.' 'Federal estate tax (the misnamed 'death tax') does not affect ANY estate worth less than $12.06 million as of this year 2022 - the threshold was just increased by almost $1 million. This tax also has full portability for married couples, meaning that a couple can avoid paying any estate tax on bequests up to $24.06 million after both have died.' Of the states that do levy estate/inheritance taxes, most have a threshold of several million dollars before any tax falls due. Many also exclude certain beneficiaries such as spouses from liability. Let's be honest here, it affects only the very wealthy, to a very limited degree and the bulk of assets being taxed are 'unearned', i.e. accrued from income that is produced by the creativity and sweat of other people - the ones who do the actual work.
They don't answer the question, I don't have any more time for them. David, you went through about 25 minutes of this, GAWD Bless you. I made it to 1:32.
Probably the Medicare C plans you always see blasting their shit on tv all the time. The same plans designed to bankrupt traditional Medicare and lead to privatization.
I love the way David interviewed this woman. He did not talk over her and listened to and then corrected her on the points that she thought she had wrong. This is the way interviews should be done.
I concur. Often it seems like interviewers get frustrated or angry and devolve to stock talking points, drawing the same from their interlocutor. Allowing candidates an opportunity to relax and show their true colors is both more informative and less stressful to the listener. Kudos, David Also, ditto for Luke's field pieces..

I think this was a masterclass in how to have a civil conversation, yet disagree with someone 100%. There was no yelling, no heated discussion, no name-calling. Very well done.
I agree more people should do it like this but I couldn't make it through the entire episode listening to her nonsense

He's incredibly condescending

All Bad News!!!
Obviously a poorly educated MAGAt. 🙄
She can't be a worthy candidate

Whether you like David or not whenever he gives interviews he always allows his guests to express themselves and their ideas fully without interruption. He doesn't ever get into a shouting contest with guests or have people talking over each other. David wants these folks to express their ideas clearly and fully because it makes it that much easier for him to refute the crap out of it after they talk.
You know how they ask “who is the current president?” On mental status exams? I guess that has a whole new layer of meaning now
Wow! You’re right! My brother was sick and kind of out it, and the doctor asked him who the President was, and my brother said, “oh that ass hole”!
We all cracked and the doctor said, “he’s ok”, he can go home! 😂

Not the exact quotation, but close enough.

The left has standards in a president. We want them to be smarter than we are as individuals. Not dumber.
Intelligence like common sense has little to do with politics.
Smart like person , man, woman, camera, TV! Covfefe!
That's astute. There is a reason, however, that I suggest is borne out by history time and again. I think a majority of people delegate their thinking to others. Historically and anthropologically, this has created an affinity toward strong male psychopaths. Look at socialistic autocratic regimes, organized crime families, and the modern Republican Party for examples. In most cases, with a few exceptions (Mario Puzo's The Godfather, e.g.), they want those leaders to be dumber so they can feel smart by comparison, while the smart ones tend to be weeded out early as threats (which was a distinct plot conflict in The Godfather). The O.G. Republicans -- namely Lincoln, Grant, and Sherman -- were whip-smart. Read Grant's memoirs, Sherman's memoirs, and anything written by Lincoln (specifically the Second Inaugural ["With malice toward none and charity for all... do all which may achieve and cherish a just and last peace...] and the Gettysburg Address [which needs to be reread in light of the Ukraine war]) for proof of this. Putin, on the other hand, is probably not very smart, and Trump thinks he's a genius, which, by comparison, is probably accurate.
@@taz-man Hamberder!

Now that was informative! Thank you for challenging her and continuing to be open to hearing these Republicans views. 👏
How David’s head doesn’t explode is mind boggling.
This woman is in politics? Its women like these that give smarter women a bad name.. shame really!!
She is smarter I agree, because you are too dumb
A death tax? 😂 She is seriously un/mis-informed. David is 100% correct regarding the estate tax.
THIS!!
This woman is crazy!!!
And also, if the death tax she’s citing is not a federal, but actually a state tax, then shouldn’t she take it up with those who pass those taxes in her state of Florida? (Hint: it’s her own party)
I'm in Florida, when both my parents passed, there was no death tax. WTH is she talking about?
I think she's referring to an "inheritance tax," but it's shocking that she's running for any office other than dog catcher. She's a Qanut.
The oil industry’s outrageous greed is what is responsible for high gas prices!
This is true…
THIS!!!
Agree here in PA they plug wells to increase prices,plus they are given tax breaks but not required to clean up the environment
You forgot to mention the regime changes and wars that have also been instigated.
Yes
There isn't a death tax! She is WRONG!!!!
There IS an inheritance tax, but it starts well above what my siblings & I inherited when our mother passed & that chunk of change was enough to solve a few big problems around here.
@@angelikaopland7880exactly!
Be afraid, be very afraid. Someone like this will probably be in the government.
There are worse than her already there. MTG comes immediately to mind but it's a long list now...almost all Republicans.
She said..."as Americans we need to learn the truth". Unfortunately she and others like her can't handle the truth.

They are completely unacquainted with truth now. The ex-GOP is now the Dunning-Kruger Party; they have no idea what they don't know, thanks to decades of Limbaugh, FOX, etc.
We give them the facts all the time. They just ignore them. Only their “truth feelings “ count.
She knows she lying
One of the reasons less oil was used is that everything practically stalled when Covid-19 hit us.
Even so, Trump recently said "The Strategic Petroleum Reserve has been ‘mostly empty’ for decades", which is false, and it actually fell under Trump. She has zero idea what she is talking about - on taxation, oil/gas, and Biden.
@@seanp7dc That too.
Right. It's funny how they brag about the prices under Trump, without mentioning that no one used those low gas prices.. because we weren't driving🤣.
Even though LESS OIL WAS USED...BIG OIL PROFITS OVER 170 BILLION. THE PROBLEM IS NOT OIL PRODUCTION ITS OIL COMPANY GREED DRIVING THE PRICE OF GAS. HOLD THEM ACCOUNTABLE AND STOP BLAMING EVERYONE ELSE.
@@billrowan3368 thank u....👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Her death tax explanation is flat out wrong. Both of my parents are deceased and my sister and I didn’t pay any tax when we split their estate.
Darlene may hate it, but she learned more in this 20 something minutes than in the 50 years before this...
No she didn't.
She'll go back to her "sources" (fox) to double check what she's been fed, breath a sigh of relief, and tell herself "I was right." 🤦
Lol 😂 agree

😂 poor woman doesn’t know left from right
She was born in 1958. We have this one lone detail in common.
I love the way you walk them through each issue one by one! great job
I had to stop watching when the 1% fact was dropped on her head. The willful ignorance and outright lying from people like Darlene and millions of others just like her is enraging. To be in possession of cold hard facts, and then being made to feel as if WE are the ones who are lying, makes me want to banshee scream.
We are better than she is. We will overcome.
That's how they get ya. And that's their game.
I don't feel like I've been lying; I feel like she's a liar, a fool & a total ass.
Worst part is, when you inevitably DO express your dissatisfaction with the lies and manipulation expressed by these charlatans, they'll call you crazy.
Like, they'll lie, cheat, and steal to their heart's content and when you reach your personal tolerance limit for their BS, they'll condescend to you and call you a Karen or something.
When she starts "mmm-hmmm" ing, you know she's under pressure
She as no Facts. who would have known.
Who makes $250,000 a year and works overtime 🤔? Wtf ?
Who makes that much working hourly ?
When our parents passed away, we didn't pay any death tax on what we inherited!!!
Quite a few people make that much hourly. I personally know people who work nearly 80 hours per week and with OT they get to that amount.
He'll who knows maybe lawyers or robots that don't sleep or eat or poop or have a life😊
I don't know where you're getting at with this but I know several people that make that kind of money. I personally work at least 120 hours every 2 week check with alot of other times getting up to about 168 hours and anywhere in between that. Alot of that money is overtime. Plus a safety bonus every quarter and also a monthly bonus and yearly bonus. It's very possible.
Interesting that she believes “our” oil somehow belongs to the government of the USA. She commented that we get money into the “treasury” when “we” export oil. Does she not know that the oil produced in America is privately owned and goes wherever it is paid for? Unbelievable how anyone will run for office regardless of how little knowledge they have
Look at the Republicans in office. They love ignorance. Hell, they put forward bills without consulting any experts in the field. It's bound to be terrible. But you know, what do you expect from a voting block who's also ignorant. A lot of ignorant people in the country.
In essence they want to give credit to a President (DJT} for manipulating the oil market which in fact would make them Socialist or Communist by nature. Too dumb to understand that they don't really want the Government involved in the free market? So which one do you "Patriots" want? Double speak and the hypocrisy is off the charts. When you have no platform or actual facts to back your ridiculous claims, you just throw your toy trucks out of the sandbox and whine.
And most of the keystone stage for oil, that’s supposed to flow through there, comes from Canada.

Lil bit of column a) lil bit of column b).
Whenever she says something that is not factually correct and you ask her questions to show that, she either refuses to answer your questions or else she dodges them by bringing up something else. That seems to indicate she knows she is not telling the truth.
She speaks on subjects that she has superficial knowledge and depth of understanding.
@Islayman This. Right-wing propaganda has worked so well that the masses now rail against things that conform to their own ideology. Amazing.
David you are a very respectful and good interviewer no matter republican or democrate.
Best wishes to you and your group from Canada.
Breaking it down simply was needed, David. With Darlene the use of tactics, similar to a psychology were needed. Excellent interview.
She was an accounting and finance major. Notice she didn’t finish her degree.
Also she sells medicare insurance....which is usually not worth the money you pay for it ..these companies were constantly targeting my Mom
quitters and bullshitters
Welllll, good to know!
Thank you for sharing this information.

Omg, if only every interview could be this civil and have such clarity. Great job!
I find people having a grown up conversation with a child who doesn't know anything about the world beyond frustrating.
She does a wonderful job destroying her own arguments. Imagine her advocating or voting on issuses she really doesn't understand!? It could end anywhere unintentionally out of ignorance. Not a polititian I'd trust!!
No, she'd vote just the way TFG tells her to vote - no thinking or understanding required
Is she really a politician? This is the 2nd united statian I hear wanting the keystone pipeline. They are convinced that it will reduce prices but it seems to me that it won't have a big effect. For one thing, who is going to pay for it and how much will the pipeline cost?
Over here in Canada, some are against it and some are in favor of it.
It seems to me that the simpler solution is to not sell minivans and gasguzzlers.
It’s so funny how she said she didn’t know the answer about the keystone pipeline, Then David answers - she dismisses it is incorrect - he says that’s a fact - and she says well your facts wrong? Insanity this is truly insanity.
I know, teach her the basics of what fact & fiction means. Facts belong to nobody they are just facts, period.
Poor thing bless her heart she tried so hard but you can tell she was floundering.
I kinda felt bad for her because there were certain things she said that were just completely untrue and you can tell David is trying so hard to keep her on track like a child.
“I think” …she said over & over. Her zoom lighting was #dismal.” “I’m the Medicare lady.” What a mess. “Seniors have bought this to my attention.” “It’s not up to me.” “Correct” “i know there was some recommendations of 12% & 15% tax.” “I think about it.” “Look I’m a success story.”
Yes she is in the top 1% globally if she makes $35k a year. She is out nearly 8,000,000,000 people globally very very wealthy. “I’m very successful, I grew up poor.” “I’d like to see overtime taxes done away with.”
My God …”solvency” “insolvent” …”I have a lot of friends “oath.” “conspiracy” “I ask for oath” “God’s protection.” “Ben Franklin.” “All conspiracy related” “maybe your sources might be inaccurate.”

Much admiration for your patience David. Facts are just facts, not something to agree with or not, one may not like them but that doesn’t change the fact! Thank you David for your intelligence.
I suspect -Karen- Darlene thinks "poor" means her parents could only afford to buy her a Chevy instead of a BMW. It also goes to show that one doesn't need to be smart to run a successful business. Just amoral and willing to take advantage of seniors to sell them crappy overpriced insurance.
THIS!!!
Impressed she is so Karen
Truly worrisome she is selling Medicare to seniors and *this* ill-advised, I mean grifting voters
Wow… She really has no clue about our oil production and the fact that we ship a majority of overseas, and that’s been happening for decades
That's because she only hears Republican Facts.
Darlene lives in her own reality and we're not allowed to correct.
So she won't say who the current president is, and she is a candidate for The House? And she won't say who is, in her "mind". Who'd vote for her?
I notice that the people they run for office on the Republic side the never want to answer simple yes or no questions. Also she can't even want to answer who the president is now. Something is wrong with that woman. It me it is a waste of time talking to those people.
A complete waste. Had to cut the video short.
I would fine with that if she had something to actually say other made up oil statistics and repeating the words energy Independence. Like listening to someone trying to find unicorns.
Man, we are in so much trouble as a country.
Correct - Ireland.
An excellent interview by David - not getting "triggered" into allowing the batshit crazy dialogue that usually ensues with these intellectually short minded individuals to spread their crazy ideas... he maintained control of the dialogue and kept on point to show the faults... OK, so that went well but why are we even entertaining these damaged minds? These clueless idiots are just the front monkeys used by the Right to divert the attention away from their power moves to erode our Democracy... to move the discourse into meaningless issues to avoid addressing the atrocities they are engineering. Those in charge and control of the Right know that these front monkeys are idiots but it serves their purpose well.

She seeks Medicare health insurance but is a candidate in the party that wants to uproot the Medicare benefit. You about to lose yo job!
Au countraire if she’s fleecing old people by selling the supplemental Medicare insurance, she should make out like gangbusters when Medicare is well and truly dead or at least virtually toothless. She can sell them straight up full plans. The only thing Medicare about Medicare supplemental plans is the misleading name.
Damn David. You absolutely demolished her. When faced with any fact she just caved to "beliefs" 🙄

Estate planner here, rolling in my grave listening to this even as my heart continues beating
😄😄
This woman should learn how to google:
'California is one of the 38 states that does not have an estate tax.'
'Federal estate tax (the misnamed 'death tax') does not affect ANY estate worth less than $12.06 million as of this year 2022 - the threshold was just increased by almost $1 million. This tax also has full portability for married couples, meaning that a couple can avoid paying any estate tax on bequests up to $24.06 million after both have died.'
Of the states that do levy estate/inheritance taxes, most have a threshold of several million dollars before any tax falls due. Many also exclude certain beneficiaries such as spouses from liability. Let's be honest here, it affects only the very wealthy, to a very limited degree and the bulk of assets being taxed are 'unearned', i.e. accrued from income that is produced by the creativity and sweat of other people - the ones who do the actual work.
THANK YOU.
Well said.
Someone might want to look into any cases where an inheritance didn't go to the family. I smell a fish.
Google is liberal propaganda scum don’t you know the only place for facts is Fox News
They don't answer the question, I don't have any more time for them.
David, you went through about 25 minutes of this, GAWD Bless you.
I made it to 1:32.
"I sell medicare health insurance." Say no more, grifter.
Probably the Medicare C plans you always see blasting their shit on tv all the time. The same plans designed to bankrupt traditional Medicare and lead to privatization.

So, she’s one of those scam phone callers?
Yep
I love the way David interviewed this woman. He did not talk over her and listened to and then corrected her on the points that she thought she had wrong. This is the way interviews should be done.
I concur. Often it seems like interviewers get frustrated or angry and devolve to stock talking points, drawing the same from their interlocutor. Allowing candidates an opportunity to relax and show their true colors is both more informative and less stressful to the listener. Kudos, David
Also, ditto for Luke's field pieces..
