"Google, nobody called from Google. One of the things like doing a show like yours, your show, you know, you see it on Fox, but when you really see it is all over the place, they take clips of your show that you're doing right now with me and if I do a good job, they're gonna vote for me, they're gonna vote for me because it's not just on Fox, it's on Fox is a smaller part of it. You're on all over this, those little beautiful cell phones you're on, you're all over the place. You have a product, you have a great product. You have a great brand. So you have to get out, you have to get out, you have to do things like your show and other shows and Google has been very bad. They've been very irresponsible and I have a feeling that Google is gonna be close to shut down"

Can anyone help? I don't have a senile narcissist to English translator!

I kinda thought he was saying Google, probably meaning YouTube, shows Fox content and people aren't tuning in on the TV anymore, and his dumb ass thinks Fox is losing money and viewers.

There is no way he'd destroy Google with all that yummy data he could gobble up and share with his shitbag acquaintances.

Trying to decipher his words is like dementia astrology, who knows. If he doesn't know what he's talking about, we surely can't either.
