Fails: Senator Todd Young's Silence on Mark Kelly and Roger Marshall's Voter Fraud Claims
At 51:56 · chapter starts 50:40
Scott Galloway's fail segment targets a pattern of Republican senators saying the right thing privately and the wrong thing (or nothing) publicly. First, ABC's John Carl interviewed Senators Todd Young and Mark Kelly and directly asked Young whether Trump's accusation of sedition against Kelly — a combat pilot who flew the space shuttle — was appropriate. Young praised Kelly in a text, said nothing on air. [1] — Scott Galloway "Let me save you $7,000 on the leadership course of any major university. Do the right thing even when it's hard. There, you just saved $7,0…" 51:56 Scott delivers his famous '$7,000 MBA leadership course' deconstruction: do the right thing even when it's hard, full stop. Second, Ryan Nobles on Meet the Press pressed Senator Roger Marshall of Kansas to cite a single example of voter fraud influencing an election outcome; Marshall deflected into unrelated tangents about doctors and pilots needing to be trusted. Scott notes that no one has ever produced evidence that a single election was decided by voter fraud — making Marshall's defense of the SAVE Act fundamentally baseless. Both examples point to the same crisis: elected officials on 6-year terms who refuse to exercise the independence those terms were designed to protect.
Trump accused combat pilot and astronaut Senator Mark Kelly of sedition. Senator Todd Young privately texted Kelly support but said nothing publicly. Scott Galloway eviscerated this as a $7,000 MBA leadership course failure: do the right thing even when it's hard.
