The 2024 Presidency, Joe Biden’s Age, Gigantism, & Facing Reality | Dean Phillips | EP 437

Dr. Jordan B. Peterson sits down with entrepreneur, U.S. representative, and 2024 presidential candidate Dean Phillips. They discuss his now-suspended presidential campaign, the monolithic opposition he faced getting platformed, the reality of President Joe Biden’s age, the core issues facing America right now, and the comparative pathologies of Republicans and Democrats respectively.
Dean Phillips is an American businessman and congressman, serving as the U.S. representative of Minnesota’s 3rd District since 2019. Phillips has started and run several companies over the years (Such as Talenti Gelato) and served as CEO of his family's liquor business, Phillips Distilling Co, for 12 years (2000-2012). Phillips ran as the only Democrat against Joe Biden in the 2024 election. On March 6th, 2024, he suspended his campaign.
This episode was recorded on March 13th, 2024

    It's crazy to me that his problem with Trump was his "character". No, that's BS. The problem was that it was politically incorrect to accept Trump as president because "democrats" are communists. "What you say may be true comrade, but it hurts the regime and so it is incorrect, politically" was a soviet weapon of ideological purging, and now it's the same to these neo-marxists. LGBTQ are the revolutionary vanguard, and THAT is why she was crying. She was claiming victimhood as a good marxist does. It's politically incorrect to state the obvious truth that Biden is both malicious and sunsetting. The neo-marxist ideological purge known as "wokeness" won't allow him to say it or antifa will be at his door tomorrow. He managed to twist the ideological barbarism of the trans surgeries into an attack on capitalism.

The powers in charge have created a massive amount of fear and paranoia around him. We see nazis, racists, men hating women, women hating men, etc all over. These are phantoms created in the minds of the left voters to instill fear and control.

    He answers it with a terrible analogy too. "It's like pornography: you know when it's gone too far when you see it". All pornography is too far, all of it is bad. There is no "you'll know it when you see it". We're always told how bad the new generations are but the ones before us are so pathetic they can't see they're the ones who brought us all these issues today. "You know it when you see it" is a cop out and makes no sense because you aren't drawing any lines when we need lines drawn.

    Like the previous Democratic guests, this guy is NOT as moderate as he claims. He is smart enough to know the difference yet switches the definition of equality and equity. He also says he is NOT for taking opportunities away while advocating for special treatment for other people.

    Don't get pedantic about the word "democracy". Very few people, if any, who refer to our country, or any other countries in the West, as a democracy, mean anything like the assembly of ancient Athens when they use the word. They mean a country where free elections serve as the basis for the government. That's the meaning the word has had for generations. But your point about his comment on Biden is well-taken. Phillips is a party man. Biden is not now and never was a man of integrity. Biden has lied his entire public life. Biden is vicious, nasty. incompetent and stupid man. Always has been. His senility just pulls these qualities into sharper focus.

    Right out of the gate, Dean demonstrated that he was wrong about personal character being the most important aspect of a national leader's effectiveness. If that were the case, Jimmy Carter and Herbert Hoover would have been two of the greatest American presidents of the 20th Century instead of two of the worst. What Dean misses is that policy and its execution are the key characteristics for greatness. On those criteria, Trump was our best president since Ronald Reagan. As a nonpolitician, Trump understood what needed to be done. He made policy campaign promises that more than any president in living memory he actually kept, probably the most important of which was appointing three US Supreme Court justices who adjudicate cases on the basis of the written text of the Constitution, not some personal political biases that they may happen to hold. I don't care nearly as much about Trump's table manners and his sometimes boorish behavior as I do about his government policy initiatives, and I strongly support him in his campaign for reelection.

    I went back and watched the remainder of the interview. After Phillips’ self-serving monologue, Jordan did a good job of asking difficult questions and raised many excellent points. I think Phillips, like most modern Democrats speaks with a forked tongue. He benefited from a stable family, religious faith and a strong culture but the party he represents is doing everything to destroy the traditional nuclear family and the Judeo-Christian values that created his country. The left of centre parties in western democracies have been highjacked by radicals on the far left and deserve to be turfed from office. The Democratic Party sorely needs moderates to show courage and speak out against the neo-Marxism that seems to have captured its soul. My apologies to Jordan for my first critical review.

Apparently runaway crime runaway inflation a s*** economy is preferable to a bull market low unemployment peace with our enemies no foreign wars and the fact that we were showing strength militarily and politically around the globe negotiating Abraham accords all while the media and the Democrats in Congress and in the states did everything they could to lie about him to go so far as to Framingham do you want to talk about constitutional crisis the Constitution doesn't exist for these bozos and you know what Merrick Garland talked a good game before he was the US attorney and now he's no different than a member of the KGB without.our constitutional rights have been trampled and the idea that Trump spent more than Biden is b******* the majority of the money that Trump spent was on covid which the Democrats and the Chinese Communist party are responsible.

But no one can separate gold that isn’t there. Which… Is exactly the issue as a whole. The man holds trinkets as Gods, and scrimshaw as Scripture. Thinks it will do anything for his Children. Thinks it will do anything for Minorities. Thinks the substance of his Life is built of that 2 Ply. Or he claims too. I think what it actually is, is that he avoids the deep questions. And has for so long he doesn’t realize the substance of what he was given. Now he’s thinking he should wake up, but has never opened his eyes. Walking around saying he sees, and proclaiming he knows the shape of things. Yet he is just trying to remember how it was described to him by others. This isn’t an accusation in the way you might think. It’s a summarization of the sense I get out of his presentation. I could get into the exact problems I have with each portion of conversation, but I have doubts that it is of any purpose here.

His daughter weeping when Trump got elected in 2016 is a sign of a fragile person who has been brainwashed by social media and legacy media. The Left are such bad losers too, it's just the same here in the UK. RFK Jr and Ron DeSantis gave a better impression when Jordan interviewed them, and Vivek Ramaswamy is clearly very intelligent and one to the watch the future. The western world really needs some non-woke politicians with high IQs.

So you still haven't found one who will answer the question. Not surprising. I knew he wouldn't, even as you were asking. RFK, Jr. is the only politician you've interviewed who didn't annoy me immensely. Even DeSantis, whom I like, was annoying, so please don't do this very often. Oh, and I can tell you the number one reason Trump is so loved, and will win the election if it isn't stolen by underhanded machinations: he neither acts nor talks anything like a politician.

Im here for the best of our nation, and im an independent, didnt vote first two election cycles i could have but i wouldve voted trump for both. Now its definitely Trump a 3rd time, im actually signed up to attend the booths that day. I feel like I i failed my nation not voting especially after 2020. Now we can win this time. If we can continue to keep up the fractioning of the democrats we can win with maybe a landslide. Anyone woke up these last 3 years, that even if we think these elections never matter so dont vote that it does matter cause every vote gets counted and just a few votes would gave Trump Georgia and im one of the ones that just didnt go to polls that day.

My father and uncle became 13 in the 1930s, neither were bar-mitzvahed. Both my grandfathers lived highly secular lives, even ate pork. There are other factors at work, not just the religious, family structure.

I have voted republican or libertarian most of my life and yet, I would have loved hearing this gentleman in an actual debate, along with other candidates and then decide for myself, not the mainstream media’s commentaries, where to place my vote. We need more younger, intelligent and good hearted politicians given a chance to speak! Thank you for this conversation ❤

    I believe that we are so limited in choices, at all levels of government, bc nobody wants the job. Most good people can't stand to be around the political types, the deep statres, etc. The govt has become so corrupt that it keeps good people at bay. Oh and re the democratic party??? Fully captured by Marxist, malthusian demons. What good person wants to deal with that??

    Seems like a decent person who is 100,000% more qualified and suitable to be president than the one who will be.

    you don't understand how fucked the country would be if this imbecile became president.... it's terrifying to think for more than 30 seconds about what a disaster that would be.

    I am so gratified you invited Dean Phillips, Dr. Peterson. I saw him on Megyn Kelly’s show a couple months back and very much appreciated his more centrist and moderate leftist views. He reminds me a good deal of John McWhorter in that regard. And I immediately thought what a good conversation you might have with Dean and how much you might enjoy to get to know him and I’m so glad I was right. We are currently in the middle of quite the April snowstorm event in New England but hopefully the snow will be melted by June! Every year we think it won’t be and every year it is. I am earnestly praying for a blessing on the Gospel seminar and can’t wait to see it. With Ruth Anne’s love.
