Daily Review with Clay and Buck - Jul 28 2025

Trump was Right on Trade

 

President Donald Trump’s economic and trade victories, including a landmark UK-US trade agreement announced alongside UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer, and a massive EU-US trade deal. The hosts emphasize how these deals validate Trump’s long-standing “America First” trade policy and his strategic use of economic leverage. They highlight the record-breaking performance of the S&P 500 and Dow Jones, attributing the market’s rebound to Trump’s leadership and urging listeners to stay invested for long-term gains.

 

The segment also critiques mainstream media and political opponents, asserting that Trump’s economic foresight—especially on China—has been vindicated. The hosts contrast Trump’s success with the Biden administration’s failures, particularly on inflation, wage growth, and border security. They argue that Trump has delivered on his promises more effectively than any recent president.

 

Black on White Crime 

 

A viral video of a violent mob assault in Cincinnati, which Vice President JD Vance condemns as a brutal, racially charged attack. They criticize the mainstream media’s silence, suggesting a double standard in coverage based on the racial dynamics of the incident. The discussion calls for harsher penalties for mob violence, urging district attorneys to prioritize violent crime over nonviolent offenses.

 

Russia, Russia, Russia

 

The media’s handling of the Russia hoax and the Epstein case. Tulsi Gabbard, now Director of National Intelligence, is praised for exposing the depth of the intelligence community’s efforts to undermine Trump. The hosts criticize mainstream media for ignoring these revelations and accuse Democrats of weaponizing the Epstein case to politically damage Trump, rather than seeking justice for victims.  Vice President JD Vance is spotlighted for his articulate defense of the administration against media attacks, particularly regarding the lack of transparency under previous administrations. The hosts argue that Democrats only began caring about Epstein when they saw an opportunity to divide Trump from his base.

 

Woke Left Calls Sydney Sweeny Ad “Nazi Propaganda”

 

Backlash against “woke” advertising. The hosts praise American Eagle’s decision to feature actress Sydney Sweeney in a new campaign, calling it a return to aspirational marketing and a rejection of body positivity campaigns that promote unhealthy lifestyles. They argue that brands are shifting away from politically correct messaging because it failed to resonate with consumers. This segment includes a critique of the media’s labeling of traditional beauty standards as “Nazi propaganda,” which Clay and Buck dismiss as absurd.

 

In a broader cultural context, the hosts discuss the growing emphasis on health and fitness among younger generations. They note a decline in smoking and binge drinking, while expressing concern over the increased use of high-potency marijuana. They argue that marijuana legalization has led to unintended consequences, including public health risks and a thriving black market. The conversation also touches on the importance of teaching young people to take risks, pursue physical fitness, and engage with the world beyond their screens.

Buck returns from a family trip to New York City, sharing anecdotes about his father's 78th birthday and a baptism, setting a personal tone before transitioning into the day’s top stories.

The hour’s central focus is on President Donald Trump’s economic and trade victories, including a landmark UK-US trade agreement announced alongside UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer, and a massive EU-US trade deal. The hosts emphasize how these deals validate Trump’s long-standing “America First” trade policy and his strategic use of economic leverage. They highlight the record-breaking performance of the S&P 500 and Dow Jones, attributing the market’s rebound to Trump’s leadership and urging listeners to stay invested for long-term gains.

The hosts contrast Trump’s success with the Biden administration’s failures, particularly on inflation, wage growth, and border security. They argue that Trump has delivered on his promises more effectively than any recent president.

A significant portion of the hour is devoted to a viral video of a violent mob assault in Cincinnati, which the hosts and Vice President JD Vance condemn as a brutal, racially charged attack.

The discussion calls for harsher penalties for mob violence, urging district attorneys to prioritize violent crime over nonviolent offenses.

Hour 2 - Sydney Sweeny Racism Charge?

Hour 2 of The Clay Travis & Buck Sexton Show opens with a deep dive into the state of the U.S. economy under President Trump, highlighting record stock market highs, strong trade deals, and the positive momentum of the administration’s first six months. The hosts emphasize the impact of tax cuts and anticipate further economic growth if the Federal Reserve cuts interest rates. They also discuss Trump’s overseas meetings, including with the British Prime Minister, as part of his ongoing foreign policy efforts.

The conversation shifts to national security and public safety, with Clay and Buck asserting that the U.S. southern border is more secure than ever. They cite a dramatic drop in violent crime across major cities, referencing reports from outlets like The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal. A key segment focuses on a mass stabbing incident in Traverse City, Michigan, where a former Marine named Derrick Perry heroically intervened with a legally carried firearm. This leads to a broader discussion on the role of armed citizens in deterring violence and the philosophical divide between conservatives and liberals on gun rights.

Clay and Buck argue that opposition to firearms is rooted more in cultural and political ideology than in crime statistics. They criticize the media for downplaying the effectiveness of lawful gun ownership and highlight the importance of empowering law-abiding citizens to protect themselves and others. The hosts also connect the decline in crime to the Trump administration’s support for law enforcement and stricter immigration enforcement, including the deportation of hundreds of illegal immigrants convicted of murder.

The hour then pivots to cultural commentary, focusing on the backlash against “woke” advertising. The hosts praise American Eagle’s decision to feature actress Sydney Sweeney in a new campaign, calling it a return to aspirational marketing and a rejection of body positivity campaigns that promote unhealthy lifestyles. They argue that brands are shifting away from politically correct messaging because it failed to resonate with consumers. This segment includes a critique of the media’s labeling of traditional beauty standards as “Nazi propaganda,” which Clay and Buck dismiss as absurd.

In a broader cultural context, the hosts discuss the growing emphasis on health and fitness among younger generations.

Hour 3 - Russia, Russia, Russia

Hour 3 of The Clay Travis & Buck Sexton Show delivers a powerful blend of economic analysis, foreign policy insight, and media critique, all centered around the achievements and challenges of President Donald Trump's administration. The hour opens with a breakdown of newly negotiated trade deals with the EU and UK, including a 15% tariff on 70% of European imports. These deals are framed as a major win for American manufacturing and energy, with projections of $750 billion in energy purchases and $600 billion in new investments by 2028.

 

The hosts then pivot to foreign policy, highlighting Trump’s frustration with stalled negotiations in the Russia-Ukraine conflict. They discuss the possibility of secondary sanctions and increased economic pressure on Russia, while also examining the humanitarian crisis in Gaza. Trump’s commitment to delivering substantial U.S. food aid to starving civilians is presented as both a moral imperative and a strategic move to stabilize the region.

 

Throughout the hour, Clay and Buck emphasize the strength of the U.S. economy, citing record stock market highs, preserved tax cuts, and collapsing violent crime rates—even acknowledged by outlets like The New York Times. They argue that Trump has delivered on his core campaign promises: economic growth, border security, and law enforcement support.

 

A major segment is devoted to the media’s handling of the Russia hoax and the Epstein case. Tulsi Gabbard, now Director of National Intelligence, is praised for exposing the depth of the intelligence community’s efforts to undermine Trump. The hosts criticize mainstream media for ignoring these revelations and accuse Democrats of weaponizing the Epstein case to politically damage Trump, rather than seeking justice for victims.
