Summary

The US women’s team won the World Cup. Now they’re saying they deserve equal pay to the men. But that’s extremely absurd. In fact, if you look at the numbers, women are overpaid. I’ll explain why. Also, the media invented another controversy to try to make conservatives look stupid. This one has to do with a mermaid. Finally, if we have the right to an attorney in this country, why don’t we have the right to a doctor? I'll tackle that question. Date: 07-08-2019 Learn more about your ad choices.

1:29.8

celebrate it even more. It's a fine little game. Don't get me wrong. It's just that I

1:35.3

prefer sports. I love America. Those are the two things that prevent me from really

1:42.5

appreciating and enjoying it more. It's just the fact that I'm a patriot and also a sports

1:46.4

fan. But if I wasn't any of those, then I think I would like it more. I'm not criticizing

1:52.3

Sokker. Just because I'm calling it a fake sport, loved by commies and traders, doesn't
