We witnessing martial law. Well i think you wish that witness martial law much more at the Boston Marathon when that bombing took place because what happened there the federal troops came in were actually occupying the streets and people were told to stay at home they were given orders of house arrest which is totally unconstitutional what youre seeing now is definite practice towards that by sending federal troops in when theyre not being asked by the local government or the State Government there says fed really an issue but i think holland the Bigger Picture is this its advertising look at all trump sads trumps ads are for law and order so if he can send federal troops out there stir things up that convinces the public that oh we need to relax donald trump because look at our cities are in chaos when its all maybe being orchestrated right out of his Campaign Office because lets remember something Linda Mcmahon the wife of Vince Mcmahon of the w w e used to head his Small Businesses she now has moved over a while ago to running and helping with his campaign there says w w e written all over it. Yeah the showmanship of it though could swing both ways its a bit of a rorschach test because while trump can use that footage to look like a tough guy some of those grisly scenes do inspire sympathy suppose you were the governor right now and that came to your state how would you respond. Well certainly you know m a n m m a huge advocate of the 1st amendment and protesting i myself protested against stop the graph movement the equal rights amendment for women i remember marching for that i marched to change the name of the Washington Football Team all of that stuff so i support the 1st amendment but i dont support is the violence that seems to go along with it but most of wagners being done by other people not the people who are protesting not those mothers who stand out there in the navy veteran who stands out there these are agitators and who knows what their agenda is but people need to understand that they look for this robbery and vandalism and all that to agitate and create troubles. Yeah no doubt and very regrettable about the coronavirus Montana Wyoming they are not new york city or boston and that has been the white house rationale excuse some say for leaving it to the governors has the federal government has the Trump Administration exercised due leadership during this crisis. Absolutely not no leadership whatsoever holland what you have here is a war and its the most difficult war ever because guess what you cant see the enemy its like when i did the movie predator you couldnt see the predator thats why you killed us all you cant seem to have a minutes or you dont go to 11 state does not declare war and go to war if the United States goes to war which we have to against this pandemic it has to be a United States of america you have to have 50 states united with their same leadership up at the top we dont go to war state by state do we governors dont declare war and mobilize their National Guard and go invade and fight absolutely not people need to understand this pandemic is a war and it should be fought that way and the leadership in washington is horrific hes dropped the ball on it completely hes trying to play catch up now anything you can and hes got all these apologists out there making excuses for the failure. And hes clearly reading the poll numbers because his tone changes now day to day if not week to week but in that vacuum of leadership same hypothetical were you now the governor of minnesota describe life there as you would recommend it for instance would the kids be going back to school. Well ill put it to you this way if my kids were of school age and they are not i would not personally send my kids back to school right now not only for very safety but for my safety and the teachers safety and the custodians safety and the lunch line ladies safety until you get this pandemic under control you dont want to continue to feed the fire the fire is not going to go out if you keep throwing wood on it. Yeah and where weve seen these outbreaks in the states that jumped the gun they had the bars in the restaurants open again how would that go if you were the gov now you cant you cant have crowds get together and you have to take the leadership you after stand out from take the bowl its and quit thinking about getting reelected and think about doing your job your job as a letter ive been elected mayor ive been elected governor the the top priority of any of those positions is guess what the Public Safety that is number one Everything Else falls by the wayside. We are speaking with a man who needs no introduction he is the host of the world according to jesse here on r. T. America you remember him as the governor of minnesota in an improbable election where millions of dollars were up against the several 100000. 00 you spent so jesse im going to ask you a super hypothetical now suppose you were advising donald trump on his reelection what would you tell him to do. Well its difficult at this point because he did copy many of the things i did but he didnt copy the most important thing i did and that is my candidacy was based on telling the truth i never used a prepared speech i always told the truth as i knew it i dont believe donald trump is capable of telling the truth i think these are social pathic a liar he tells the truth there is only the truth in his eyes of what benefits him and so i couldnt give him advice because my advice was based on telling the public the truth and the public believed me and elected me on the truth and being able to tell it and trumps not capable of telling the truth i dont believe yeah i remember how you resonated with the voters back then against some of the veteran pauls back then but lets flip a coin suppose you were advising joe biden what should his strategy be. Well right now man the moment i fade the trumpets of providing his own rope or excuse the pun to hang himself i mean he gets in trouble weekly upon weekly his poll numbers continue to fall on intel they stabilize and start to rise up i think biden is being smart hes scoring points when he needs to he comes out when he should but also hes leading in a way that trump refuses to do what he wears a mask he tells the people that it that it has to come down from the top and believe me im not a by you supporter either im the ultimate independent but right now i think joe biden is running a much Better Campaign than donald trump is. Yeah i think despite trumps sons mocking biden on social media for hiding in his basement i think its smart for him as you say to just let a trump but keep digging you have known donald trump a long time so i want to ask you the same question i asked larry king is this the donald trump you knew several decades ago has he changed. I dont believe its the same donald trump i ran i ran into a friend of mine who is also known him for many years we ran into each other months back at the airport and we approached each other and we both looked at each other and i said who is this guy he is the guy i met and my friend i wont say who it is but hes a very prominent person he agreed with me and he knows him well too and he said i dont know i dont have an answer for you i dont know what it is with him you know theres you have preliminary dementia komin ive got a certain people tell us that because theyve known cases where people have never been racists their whole life and all of a sudden dementia starts coming in and they become ultra racist which seems to be the thing that trump borderlines on today. Whether you like it or whether you dont and i suspect you do like it your name comes up every 4 years and you have stated youre not going to run for the roses this time around im down to a minute but suppose you were running and 2020 what would candidate Jesse Venturas message to the American People be give me a minute what all 1st of all holland im not running but it appears that i still might be a factor because theres something happening on the internet and i was made aware of it that this and i agree with it that this elections going to be won and lost on the internet theres a movement out there to elect me they just took out a full page ad. Adam the white bear paper telling me that this was happening and warning me to be ready to go and so i dont know whats going to develop out of this thing but heres my message if i were to get in this race my message would be simple we need an independent right now because if biden gets elected or trump gets reelected the polarization is going to continue and its going to get worse the only way out of this is to have the 2 gangs and i refer to them as gangs get a common enemy and thats what i was in minnesota you elected independent within 3 years theyll be in bed together singing kumbaya because they fear an independent or a 3rd party more than may do themselves they will team up then so youre laughing but its the truth ol and the only way i hear it is to elect out somebody that does not belong to these 2 parties who can vary. The parties back and start getting work going its exactly what happened in minnesota go to minnesota for 3 years they cooperated with me tell the 3rd year jumped in bed together wouldnt accept my budget over ran my vetoes and they put themselves and politics in front of minnesota and one year later they had a 5000000000. 00 deficit because they did bad behavior. Youre right this election is going to be a real whack on the side of the head governor Jesse Ventura host of the world according to jesse thank you for stepping into the big picture good to see faith through all of always a pleasure. Coming up is your post Office Closing we will tell you about cutbacks detailed in the internal documents by the postmaster general who was a manger trump a Campaign Contributor in advance of a surgeon in. 2020 male imbalance this is the big picture on our t. V. America. Was a pandemic no certainly no borders just blind to nationalities. Has emerged we dont come with certainty we dont have the facts in the whole world peace to. People. Judge you. 2 come in a crisis with this system things. We can do better we should be better. Everyone is contributing its your own way but we also know that this crisis will not go on forever the challenges created with the response has been massive so many good people are helping us. It makes us feel very proud that were in it together. Thinking of getting a coupon the ones we got in here she was so you know its still trapped in this tiny little wired we dont need a crate with him he will just start freaking out in she want to spray him anywhere near. Breeding dogs or caged in the interview lane conditions on puppy for i mean 67 years you know theyve been locked up in cages outside you see no protection from the weather the heat you know the courtier the rain the snow the thunder nothing they have no protection. Because you. Know its ok. Across the u. S. Cruel puppy mills are supported by dog shows and pet stores most of the puppies that are coming from these large Scale Factory farming kind of operations are being sold in stores even joined a good businesses are involved like cargill and mum sent out theres been a shocking amount of organized opposition to efforts to increase the standards of care for dogs bred in commercial breeding facilities most of that opposition is coming from huge agricultural groups and industries that have nothing to do with jobs dont buy dog. Literally carved in stone atop the Main Post Office in new york city is this proud motto neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night stays these careers from the swift completion of their report to us but will the coronavirus stop these couriers in their tracks and is there a trump torpedo heading the way of the u. S. Postal service lets ask the founder and president of strong. Our Business Development consultants hillary ford which welcome back glad to see this is a story weve been following all along on this show and elsewhere on our america and to get everybody up to speed some fast facts it may surprise you that the u. S. Postal service gets no federal funding they make their money selling stamps but 1st class mail their biggest revenue generator is down 3. 8 percent in last year and while last years 70 1000000000. 00 in revenue would put the Postal Service in the top 50 among the fortune 500. 00 it had 80000000000. 00 in operating expenses and 80 percent of the losses came from a unique requirement to prefund Retirees Health plans now think about that and its amortized over just 10 years a while back we had mark dimon steen head of the Postal Workers Union explain the postal accountability and handsome an act of 2016 passed by a Lame Duck Congress heres what he said. That law demanded of the post Office Something that is the minute of no other agency and no where the company it was demanded that the post office prefund retiring Health Benefits 75 years into the future now thats for workers did not only are not at the post office yet they werent even born yet right that was that took 5500000000 dollars that year because they it was dictated that they had to do within 10 years took 5500000000. 00 out of postal funds shifted to the federal treasury nobody was going to be able to sustain under that kind of. Funding type of mandate. Hillary how could any business survive under that kind of mandate. Well of course they couldnt fall and i think something thats very important sure remember though is that was a bi partisan ruling and it was 2016 so both parties did rule on that and i think thats very important factor and youre right nobody could operate in terms of those sort of losses a couple of factors and dont forget the union the post office union after events any sort of fish and see if that would put it in line with normal regular this is that i think every single american should be grateful for all postal workers continue no job and its not really their full about the mismanagement of the post op its just think about this in europe it costs 80. 00 the equivalent of 0. 87 to mail a 1st cost piece of mail in america 0. 65 so the actual pricing isnt in line efficiency down to 9 and i think that is not the fault of your postal worker yes they need their time and yes they need their healthcare but it is being mismanaged for many many decades and its a bipartisan bill we have heard the President Trump squat about amazon and other ecommerce writing whats called the last mile aboard the u. S. Postal service but that revenue is actually a nice chunk of change from uncle sam as our dear dear departed chum bart chilton explained to me years ago politics was already threatening the Postal Service heres what bart said they are the last mile theyre not doing the whole thing theyre not flying their own planes and even though amazon as you say is in the spotlight here because President Trump has a beef quite frankly its a political beef with amazon c. E. O. Jeff bezos who owns the Washington Post and the Washington Post he thinks at least the Editorial Board doesnt like President Trump so this is really not just political its personal for the president it appears to me fedex a new p. S. Also need the Public Infrastructure of the United StatesPostal Service they put of at least according to the Postal Service fed ex a new p. S. Puts about 25000000 packages a week into the postal system because its not profitable profitable to go down a dirt road in Rural America or some urban centers. Back to the future and internal Postal Service memo obtained by a Fortune Magazine and other news media directs that listen to this over time will be eliminated if our plants run late they will keep the mail for the next day if we cannot deliver all the mail due to call offs or shortage of people and you have to have no other help the mail will not go out hillary kind of brings a tear to why just to see our pal bart again but my question is only after 6 over 6000 postal workers have tested positive for the virus so far and the staffing is already sure it big picture is that one day deal lay in getting the mail out a real hang up for business. No it wont be holland because nowadays its estimated that 89 percent of all bills are paid online so most and thats another reason for the decline in 1st class mail and that one of the few benefits of this whole pandemic i think for most people has been weve had far less junk mail and that brings me to another point junk mail 3rd class may not actually play pay so little those the should be raised 1st of all how Many Americans would say i want more junk mail i want more advertisements it might not like net load a lot of people are very environmentally conscious now and then no ones talking about the fact that a lot of us youre empty our mail into the street into our recycling bin because it isnt personal mail its to the recipient of the household its junk mail its marketing mail so marketing mail should be made to come more in line with the actual expense of liberating because it was part you mentioned in the other gentleman mentioned that you know were Americans Still leaves their mail but 3rd class mail doesnt keep up with the cost so thats one point another point is that you know these poor postal workers i 100 percent agree with you i agree about and we know people themselves but even now mismanaged the just think about a program to have them retrained to go into the massive demand there is now what all of those private entities and u. B. S. Was mentioned in you mentioned u. B. S. Think about this and you be asked you know what the executives do every year once a day of for one day of the year the u. B. S. Executives actually drive a band you know way how on because they walk in the footsteps of their drivers and you look at the vet acts and they use the u. P. S. Workers theyre running around because they get paid to be a fish and i think its not the fault of the postal workers i have a damn mailman myself but i think they could be retrained and reconfigured in terms of what works in the private world and what is more efficient you know that is smart management i think were speaking with us from our president hillary ford which who was here when the pandemic shut down 1st here and forced us into this remote. Broadcasting mode now as governors and states that jumped the gun on reopening are trying to put the toothpaste back on the tube businesses are already giving us a glimpse of the new normal we are so starved for baseball that e. S. P. N. Stellar cast of our world series champion Washington Nationals vs the damn yankees was the most watched regular season m. L. Be game on any Network Since 2011 games now played an empty stadiums feature fake crowd noise and cardboard cutouts of the fans in the seats sports is being reconfigured as a t. V. Show while restaurants are struggling to make a go of it with reduced Seating Indoors many are reconfiguring to take out changing menus accordingly who knows if cold french fries will survive delivery and a usually sluggish Government Services are actually improving after operating a shutdown mode a quick story here in rhode island a department of Motor Vehicles doing much of the stuff online and by appointment during the shutdown thats going to become permanent so instead of us waiting in line for them theyre going to be waiting in line for us hillary ive got about a minute but chris still. Crystal ball it for me how else do you see common consumer commerce changing post pandemic. Oh its going to its going to change drastically weve already talked about it most people obviously know things that are to live that are going to be far more efficient but if you look at like the example of the more closing if you look at companies that have adjusted quickly like starbucks what theyre doing is theyre reconfiguring taking moving out of north and taking their regular Customer Base to what theyre calling the 3rd place and the 3rd place is somewhere not the home not the office but a lot of people want to get out of their apartments theyve been able to reconfigure so a business has to be able to reconfigure and readjust obviously soon the stock is up 120 percent everybodys going to be looking to see how they can operate under do what i have heard and seen 2 big businesses are that they are not going to be doing the kind of Business Travel that they have and i think an interesting factor to also consider is a look at though you just mentioned sports you know the nationals are going back were going back but some of their players have tested positive look at sports that are going to do very well like bought her pick social distancing the p. G. A. Has continued to have torments so i think youre going to see a different kind of sports take place and businesses will have to reconfigure in terms of pickup delivery and even like starbucks is doing look at what theyre calling. Yeah i think this is going to be exciting to watch hillary ford which mark Business Development consultant thanks again for your time good to see a stay safe.
