they're coming from this large scale sacrified be kind of operations are being stored in stores even giant a good businesses are involved like cargill in the center there has been a shocking amount of the organizing opposition to efforts to increase the standards of care for docs read in commercial breeding facilities most of that opposition is coming from agricultural groups and industries that have nothing to do with dogs don't buy dog. dueling over a deal can congress come to terms on a no coronavirus relieve bill perspective on that from former congressman and 2 time democratic presidential nominee and hopeful dentist who said mitch on the signature the politicking.

the politicking on larry king with millions of americans hoping for additional stimulus checks and enhanced unemployment benefits can the parties agree on another bipartisan call the 19 relief package we're talking about that would be honest to senate former u.s. representative from ohio a former mayor of cleveland and a candidate for the democratic presidential nomination in 20042008 ok millions of americans hanging on to this what's going to happen and so they're going to come to an agreement well they better have a situation where people are worried about being evicted about going into foreclosure they need money the government has no trouble when it comes to propping up wall street we have to do main street and that of course is going to me another stimulus check and it has to me unemployment benefits extended as well. if you

were in congress what would be your plan well i do a couple things 1st of all i think that we are at the point where we need a bill that i talked about years ago as a matter fact so i ended up meeting my wife that's what's called the need act the national employment emergency defense act which creates the jobs to rebuild america or in this case help infrastructure there are so many different things we need to do and give people an income then it's urgently needed right now the other thing i do so make sure that we have health care available to every american without worrying about having to pay for it i mean we need it we're long past the time for a national health care program and it's it's astonishing to me larry that the democrats can take a stand for this in the platform in this election that they cannot say once and for all we have to have health care for all of our people if nothing else but what does it take that you can't even get with

a pandemic i mean come on harry truman proposed that in 1946. well the year i was born so look i brought it's the democratic platform committee in 2000 and i was told by the gore campaign then that you know they asked me not to present it and so you have course i presented it anyway but the point is that this is an idea whose time it's come again and again and again and now during the pandemic it is urgent that we strengthen the health safety net by making sure that everyone has access to health care and that the government plays a significant role in helping to pay for it one quote can president trump do in this economy can't spend money that's congress can issue an executive order what what are his options. well look at the federal reserve has played

a significant role here in being able to create money troy's of dollars that have gone to help bail out the biggest corporations in america they did that in 20072008 . the time of the financial meltdown and we know larry in that period a lot of people lost their homes we cannot let this happen again we have to create money in terms of stimulus checks congress 70 percent consumer participation we need that to keep the economy going we need it so people can stand their homes pay their rent buy food cover their bills i mean sort of urgent matter right now this that we don't know when this pandemics going to end the government must step up that's what it's all about otherwise whatever government for. is $600.00 a week ok now my goodness it's really nothing i mean you know the numbers have to be looked at seriously in terms of what the needs of the american people

are with the needs of families who have been supported by want to breadwinners consistently who now maybe for a lower laid off are out of a job. we have to take a new look at this for the country this is about jobs yes it's about income housing health care these are this are staples of an of an economy and to me that's the purpose of government what else do we have this for except to take care of the needs of the people and one of our needs never been greater than they are at a period of pandemic where the internal workings of the country are being threatened that this is a moment for america to step up. concerning the pandemic you have a republican governor kind of a moderate and mike de wine or i always had more than 93000 confirmed cases of call the 193500 deaths how do you assess your state's response.

well mike de wine i feel sad it off in a way that was leading the country in terms of the direction in addressing taking a leadership position speaking to people about what they can do because this is where leaders are really needed to give people some guidance you know unfortunately larry the the whole thing about the code has been so politicized and even the very you know the wearing a mask event has been politicized and that's not good for the country i mean we need to look out for each other we need to go back to this real solid american position of all for one and one for all instead of every person for himself or herself and so i i'm you know i worry about our country i worry about the fragmentation that's taking place to polarize thinking compartmentalise thinking and it's sort of want to america we're we're we're descended grating into so many

different americas and we've got to get back to a sense of national unity and frankly you know health care is a place where where we should be able to unite they are high aboard a pharmacy venice has reversed its ban on the use of hydroxy chloroquine what do you make of that. look i'm not. i'm not the one to be able to make an assessment of that i think that we need to right now make sure that the basics are communicated over and over to people watch your hand we're mask in public keep socially distant take care of your basic health don't ignore. they have and i talked to a doctor head of one of the various hospitals recently who told me that people are ignoring a lot of help signals that they're getting from their own bodies because they're afraid of going out we've got to have people be more vigilant about about their own

personal how and you know people this is a time when yes we have government can't do it all we have to take responsibility for art's own self in many ways but when it comes to dealing with the collective. needs of the country we have to. 'd congress must step up they cannot wait this out they cannot wait till it gets closer to election that would that would be so venal to do that while the needs of the people are so pressing the race is on for a vaccine are you hopeful. what we can and we can only hope but it's not we're now we cannot wait to meet the economic needs of the people anticipating that a vaccine might be coming up by the end of the year or early spring now we have to deal with where we are right now and where we are right now is in a very serious position where tens of millions americans of americans are worried

about a roof over their head worried about putting food on the table they're concerned about whether they have going to have a job or still have a job when this is over the economy shifting massively and and our it's a it's a fundamental responsibility of our government to step up for people to be there when when people need reassurance when they need to know that they're going to be able to meet their basic concerns of food on the table you know that a roof over their heads that's not a small matter that's probably the most important thing for people that are very focused on their basic needs and government ought to be doing the same thing. it's likely the joe biden will name his vice presidential nominee this week do you have a preference now i i've been acquainted with. with most of the of women who have been named as potential vice presidential nominees

i know in many of them for for years. you know let's just hope that whoever the vice president chooses to be on the ticket is going to be someone who would be would have the ability to be able to step in to the position in the event that. there was an unfortunately an opening down the road so you know this is this is a huge hugely important choice and you know i know it's narrowed down to. susan wright rice who i know. and karen bass head of the congressional black caucus and senator. kyl harris look they're all very competent capable people who have experience in certain areas that would

recommend them to the vice presidency we'll see who effect like you i'm i'm i'm watching with great interest how joe biden going to do in november. i think it's going to be a close race and you know i'm not advising his campaign but if i was i which they don't take this election for granted you're not going to back into the presidency don't cover the walls if you've got a lead and you don't worry this is going to be a close race you cannot underestimate. the incumbent and i would. you know i was concerned 4 years ago and saw a late movement towards towards donald trump which resulted in his election and i saw to analyze that i i called it right now my advice would be the same could be up for grabs so be careful and and keep working to get

a message out about which you stand for the old senator claude pepper use to say always run as if you're behind i think that's good advice and but but even even more than that you know we get into the the campaign and the elections but let us not forget that for many people their greatest concern is an income. food on the table a roof over their head health care for their themselves and their children i mean that's what that's what will win the election if we stay focused on those things democrats can win but if they get distracted and it all becomes about attacking the common i don't know i wouldn't i wouldn't want to predict the outcome then are you going to run for mayor again in cleveland ah well i'm in cleveland and i love clean and all and as a matter of fact i met you larry years ago when i was mayor of cleveland and

so i come back well i come back i say tell. most day to indian politicians we manged yes. well see. dennis it's always great seeing it thanks for joining us larry thank you and best wishes to you thank you dennis crew senator former presidential candidate former mayor of cleveland more politicking right after this.

summer is still the. episode. why a pulse can be exciting very exciting i'm excited i know you're excited i know states is accepting. a short term ago an american airplane run bomb on hiroshima. standing up. on the ridge and. i like most americans growing up after the war

the bombs were a great thing they ended the war they say hundreds of thousands of lives on both sides and that's what my grandfather always said mrs reason for the decision. truman was hoping for a dual strategy one was to drop the bombs and hope that japan would surrender and number 2 the americans were trying to send a message to the soviet union there was american were plenty enough to break the can $45.00 have chosen 20 targets and russia. would back on politicking with joe walsh the former republican congressman author

of silence calling trump out for the cultish moronic authoritarian con man he is he's host of the podcast silence as well what use are you you mean that word moronic. i do boy larry it's awesome to hear you say that. you're a hero martin i love that you say that we're. so you think he's a moron. you know we don't and larry we don't talk about nothing about trump because he's so dishonest it is so corrupt and as you and i have said he he lacks empathy but we don't talk enough about the fact that i think he's an absolute dump i think he's done i think he's a stupid ignorant man and that's a big part of probably said he doesn't listen and he doesn't read. or what didn't you know when you were for him. how do you know i didn't pay enough or

not it's a great question i didn't pay enough attention to him unlike you who you knew him from way back i ignored him in the eighty's and ninety's i never watched the apprentice he was the republican nominee i figured he's a blowhard and a good he wasn't hillary so i said what the hell maybe a couple good things might happen i should have paid more attention to. democratic senator bob casey of pennsylvania says democrats are not in power but joe biden by definition is the candidate of change he said he has a huge advantage on that basis alone do you think biden has an advantage. i think it does larry i don't know if it's change i think america larry is exhausted with trump even you know i tried my don quixote primary challenge to try and even

talking to a lot of republicans probably privately back then they're just tired of all the crap donald trump is in our faces every single day i think joe biden represents let's take a time out let's pause let's just relax for 4 years and get our stuff together i think that's what biden represents for a lot of people. who do you think is going to pick as a running mate. i think he should pay to listen to thwart or comolli this somebody who's already been vetted larry i don't want to pick somebody on known because i don't want his vice president to be a story i want this story to be trump trump trump elizabeth warren and powell and there are several ready been vetted they're ready for the big stage i hope it's one of those. we're going to have no national conventions right. none does that have any effect on the election you know i think it'll help by.

donald trump would do is they larry he'd have a big stupid convention and trunk wants to do is big old rallies the same people go to these rallies let's be honest i like joe biden not more to my tail off for biden biden can't put 5000 people in an arena so i think the fact that there won't be a lot of people the people campaigning i think it helps biden because in here's the other thing larry most everybody their minds are pretty well they're well made up on this thing i don't think we need a lot of campaign. in other words if you're undecided something's wrong with you. you're an idiot you're an absolute ringback idiot over over it you're just not paying attention but i'll tell you what larry this period a lot of people didn't pay attention to. you and i did because it's our game before

the pandemic but this printout medicare has wiped out so many americans and its product to the fore the fact that the guy sounds as you say all the time larry donald trump doesn't care about anyone but himself i've heard you say he's incapable of even. caring about anyone i think that's really coming home to a lot of the american people now in a recent new york times opinion piece elizabeth drew said the debates never made any sense doesn't change the election she said they should be scrapped altogether what do you think oh boy will have the debates donald trump sucks at the debates look i didn't like hillary larry but in 2016 hillary clinton is clocking in those 3 debates again trump isn't dumb ass trunking at what one sentence together he's a lousy debater i think $101.00 larry joe biden is a very underrated debater i think in

a debate or 2 i think he'd run circles around trump over the weekend the former democratic presidential candidate andrew yang predicted that joe biden would clean trump's clock. in a debate you agree with that i really really do know biden even though biden's up there in years he's not a young spring chicken like you are biden has lost a step but joe biden larry has always been a really strong debater especially one on one again trump is a lousy debater so i don't know if we need 4 debates but i think 2 to 3 it would be clear to the american people it would seal the deal for by night. a reason having been polls you gov survey shows a plurality of americans 46 percent now say the united states is handling the cold pandemic worse than any other country in the world. when i think about you how

about that larry think about this we're the biggest most powerful wealthiest nation in the oral and yet we've had the worst response to this virus it's incredible but it's not because it's all trauma from the beginning troop didn't give a damn about it from the beginning here nor the experts from the beginning. to the american people about it it's not this is not a shell shock larry there is no plan in america to deal with the virus there's no plan because in that sense we don't have a president we don't have somebody in the white house who is capable of telling the truth or giving a damn and the country is paying a serious price for this what proved does he have that mail in voting leads to a record where what does he how does does he think that democratic pollsters

democratic voters go around to other mailboxes and see if you're a republican they stay in your power or how does it rig. he's got no proof larry what he's trying to do and i know this because i i hear from his people all the time he's trying to piss off his voters. he is purposely trying to deal it to the minus our election in the reason he's doing larry is because when he loses and i think there's a part of him that knows he's going to lose he wants all of the supporters to be pissed off. except the results of the election there's there's nothing behind the wild claims he makes but i can tell you larry most of his supporters believe that there's. voter fraud out there when trump loses i think what he's doing larry is this is what's so ugly and dangerous he's literally plant team the

seeds are his supporters not to accept the result that he has he's opening the gates for his supporters to get violent and i think you're going to see ugliness and violence after a selection no matter how much he loses by. there are some people floating the idea that of trump believes that he's only going to have one term he's going to quit and he'll invent some reason for quitting and by that you know him better than i do i don't think he do that because then i think he'd be the biggest embarrassment in american history i think larry it's better for him to loose and then to blame. voter fraud in fake news in all the rest i think donald trump is a quitter he's a coward i think that's the better route for howard you think the democrats can take the senate. i think they've already taken i think they will take it by more

than people think look larry i'm a i'm a republican i'm a former republican i'm out there campaigning for democrats to take the senate because every one of the senate republicans larry they broke their oath they decided a long time ago i'm not going to defend america i'm going to defend truong trungpa is a criminal in the white house they've enabled and they all need to lose and larry i think a bunch of them are going to lose. what what's a story with the republican party you say you're a republican if trump loses and democrats take control the senate what's the what's the symbolic central of the who's the center of the republican party well larry i meant i think the republican party has done i think it's over trump is going to lose big but yet the vast majority of republicans will vote for him so even after

trump loses i think trump is is going to dominate larry trump's not going who are killed. grabs sean hannity they'll start their own t.v. network he'll be he'll make trouble for the republican party for the next 4 years so i think the party is still going to be him so he's in a not to to chill or head. i think i think he will be a few wants to be it's not but look somebody like me i'm a conservative i oppose trump i can't run for anything in the republican party for the next 48 years because i'm anti truong so i still think you need to work donald trump because the party is his party even after he loses that's why i think the republican party is already broken up because there are a lot of conservatives like me bill kristol and others who will never go back to

that party mitt romney apparently is the only elected official standing up to him why well romney's got nothing to lose he's in utah he's popular he's probably not running again all the other republicans larry they're scared it down for donald trump supporters i know you have everybody tell you so i'll tell you this every one of these republicans they tell me privately that trumps a moron 'd he's dishonest they want to lose he's a bad guy they all tell me that privately they're not afraid of. they're afraid of trump's voters so they don't want to alienate trump's voters after he says. joe always great talking with you thanks so much you're my hero larry thank you man thank you for joining us too and don't forget remember you can join the conversation on my facebook page or tweet me at kings things and don't forget use the politicking hash tag
