BUCK: What does cowardice sound like — or is it stupidity? I don’t know. When you’re talking about Beto O’Rourke, whether he’s too dumb to know or too much of fraud to know how silly the things he says may be, that’s up for debate. I can be pushed in either direction. Is Beto too dumb or is he too dishonest? It could go either way. But you should hear that there are politicians out there right now — this is not a hypothetical. The state of California just passed a bill that makes abortion all nine months of a pregnancy.
If they didn’t want to allow for ninth month abortion, why have that in the statute? Why not say abortion for the first six months or three months or whatever the case may be? But they said all nine months of a pregnancy. Beto O’Rourke, who is just… So flimsy is the word that I always think of when this guy comes in mind. There’s just nothing to recommend this guy, but he seems to think he was born for it; I should be president. Here he is telling everybody no limits to abortion at all or won’t say anything about it. Watch.
BUCK: Can I say Beto was the guy in college who always showed up at the party with the guitar and was talking to every guy’s girlfriend.
CLAY: (laughing)
BUCK: That’s Beto.
CLAY: I just… Look, this is what Republicans should be focusing on, and I can’t believe the Senate is going to vote not to codify Roe v. Wade but to effectively say abortion can happen all the way up to nine months. And we heard the guy who’s supposed to be a moderate in Ohio, Tim Ryan, say on Fox News to Bret Baier, “Yeah, I support abortion all the way up to the ninth month.” Beto down in Texas is saying same thing. It’s what should happen in Georgia to Stacy Abrams. You want incentive to go vote in the midterms in 2022, here’s what you can do among many other things.
I think you can retire Beto forever in Texas, because if he loses like he did to Ted Cruz in the Senate — if he gets whipped by Greg Abbott which I think he’s going to do — and if Stacey Abrams gets whipped by the winner of the Republican gubernatorial primary right now which is going to be happening in Georgia I believe the 24th. It’s coming up very soon, the week after next. Those people are dead in terms of being viable candidates in the states of Georgia and Texas, and they were the patron saints of the Democrat Party.
But you have to put everybody on the record. When you say that you support abortion rights, you need to be on the record for what does that mean? Does that mean a day before a woman would give birth — with a huge pregnant belly, nine months of pregnancy — that you are okay with an abortion taking place? That’s a murder, Buck. Okay?
And I think the vast majority of Americans believe it, particularly in the eighth and ninth month, in that third trimester. And this is a radical proposition that is not supported by the vast majority, and Republicans need to get Democrats on the record for what they think about ninth-month abortion. Because it is murder, and it isn’t supported by hardly anybody — Democrat, Republican, independent — all over the political spectrum.
CLAY: Yep. They’re afraid.
BUCK: They will not do it.
CLAY: They’re afraid to in any way limit abortion rights, Buck, and that needs to be a part of this 2022 election cycle. Everybody should have to go on the record. That’s the benefit of tossing everything back to the states and to the politicians.
