Speaker 1 (00:00):
Second hour, Clay and Buck kicks off now and they
are deploying all of the Democrat all stars, or maybe
you should call them the usual suspect Like Hillary Clinton.
She's out there telling everybody that she's got a lot

(00:21):
of thoughts for them on the prospect of Donald Trump
being president again. We'll dive into that in just a
moment here. I want to note that we talked in
the first hour about how Kamala is campaigning in Texas today,
and the campaign says that this is because Texas is
the big red abortion restrictive state. They want to make

(00:44):
a final pitch about abortion, and they're going to lie.
They're going to make up stories about women who have
died because they couldn't get some kind of you know,
an abortion, And they won't even use the A word
what medical procedure? If it is a medical procedure, what
medical procedure? Are people so has it and to describe,
you know, if I was having a knee replacement yesterday,

(01:04):
I wouldn't be sitting there like, oh, well, I had
a form of care directed in my general knee area,
got a kne replacement. I've had heart surgery, I have
heart surgery. Why won't they use the word They won't
even use the word abortion. They was talking about, you know,
women's reproductive care. Just say what it is that I'll
want people to know it is. It's all propaganda. The
whole thing is propaganda. But Clay, this is what's interesting

(01:26):
to me. Trump, as we know, is sitting down with
Joe Rogan for his podcast, and that's gonna that's gonna
drop probably tomorrow in the next probably tomorrow, I think.
And Uh, the Kamala campaign is in Texas. Do you
know the Kamala campaign. Uh was in Kama was invited

(01:46):
to go on Rogan. This has come out today. She
was invited, She was asked to go on Joe Rogan's show,
and I guess they just didn't have time. She's doing
some other podcasts for a woman.

Speaker 2 (01:59):
I have never her of this woman either, and I
thought it.

Speaker 1 (02:02):
Was just you know, I mean, i'd heard of call
her daddy or whatever. I just don't listen to it.
I had never heard of this podcast in my life.
So turns down a huge podcast with a large male,
independent swing voter kind of contingent on the audience to
go on some you know, because the woman podcast. I

(02:24):
don't know her stuf. It's just gonna be like, calmly,
you're amazing. What's it like to be fighting for women's
rights and breaking the ultimate glass ceiling? And oh my gosh,
let's us cry together. Let's just hug. Let's hug each other.
I mean, and then they turn out, they say, why
do the Democrats have a masculinity problem? They're crying. You know,
I don't understand why we can't get guys to vote
for us. This is what's going on in Texas right now. Clay,

(02:44):
the unforced errors. I want to get to Hillary and
Madison Square Garden. Trump's gonna be there in a second.
My hometown, it used to be my hometown. Uh, but
Clay to be in Texas, invited on Rogan show, not
go on while Trump is going on. I feel like
this is a microcosm. This is symbolic of the whole campaign.

Speaker 2 (03:08):
Think about what she's done in her next to last
week to ever run for president. She did an interview
with Telemundo, she did NBC News, and she did a
CNN town hall. I believe she did a rally in
Atlanta and maybe one in Detroit. That should be one day.

(03:29):
I mean, I'm not trying to be cocky here, but
if I were running for president and I was in
a dead heat race, I would do every event and
every audience that I could possibly do to try to
persuade as many people as possible to come over to
my side. I mean, bucket, am I crazy? I mean

(03:49):
you have access to private jet travel. The distance between
Atlanta and Detroit is what two hours on a private jet.
I mean that's a routine flight. We're not talking about
having to go from New Hampshire to Seattle or something,
or Miami to Seattle like some massive cross country flight,
and then to sit for twenty minutes to do interviews

(04:11):
I mean with Telemundo to see an intel I could.
I would be doing all of these things frenetically if
I were her, And then to go to Texas estate
you can't win at all. To try to draw attention
to abortion when it's not even a battleground state. I
don't understand the basic strategy that is in play here

(04:32):
of her campaign, in the next to last week of
her presidential campaign.

Speaker 1 (04:36):
So you know, Clay, it's funny because it seems like
such campaign malpractice not to have Kamaa do the Joe
Rogan Show, because we're in this mindset of even a baseline. Look,
Bernie Sanders, has he ever been on Rogan? He probably has.
I don't even he Broken's had thousands of thous people
on both. You know, Bernie Sanders would be interesting on
the Rogan Show. He would do his Bernie Dingion woll

(04:58):
the Millionaires, the billionaire. He would do the usual thing,
the usual sort of Bernie song and dance. Uh. You know,
AOC could go on the goold go on the Joe
Rogan Show unless he really pushed her. She would do
what she does and say what she does. My point
is all you need is a baseline of ability and
competency off the cuff to be able to do a

(05:20):
sit down like that. Joe is not you know, he's
not nasty to people. He lets them talk. It's not
an ambush. He just wants to hear what you have
to say. Kamala can't do it that. But you know
that's the thing we're sitting here, like, how could you
be in Texas in a super close race and not
go on a podcast that would actually address like a
get it she's not gonna come on our show? Right?

(05:41):
But not go on a podcast that has a big
undecided and even Democrat voter bait, a Democrat sort of
centrist contingent. And the reason is because she's that bad.
I mean, this is really we have to keep reminding
ourselves of this, that she is, even among politicians that
we find on impressive, she is a uniquely incapable politician.

(06:04):
And this is why they've deployed. I've never seen so
many because usually, Clay, you wouldn't want to have like
former presidents and former candidates out in front, right, maybe
you'd have them do an event here or there with you.
I'm seeing clips of Obama alone everywhere, leaning you know,
up on stage, I'm seeing clips of Hillary. I'm seeing
clips of other big Democrat names who are clearly overshadowing

(06:30):
whatever Kamala is doing, which is usually something you'd want
to avoid. But they're in a different situation now, and
so that brings me to Hillary. Donald Trump has this
rally on Sunday, Right, is Sunday rally? Is that right? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (06:40):
A Sunday rally twenty seventh, whatever day, the twenty seventh is.

Speaker 1 (06:44):
Yeah, yeah, it's Sunday. So Donald Trump has a Sunday rally.
At Madison Square Garden. And I will tell you if
I were in New York City, I would want to
go to this rally. It would be it would be fun.
I would be Hillary Clay unfortunately, very much disagrees that
it would be fun and actually wants everyone to know
if you go to the Trump MSG rally, you're a Nazi.

Speaker 3 (07:05):
Play nine.

Speaker 4 (07:06):
One other thing that you'll see next week is Trump
actually re enacting the Madison Square Garden rally in nineteen
thirty nine. I write about this in my book. President
Franklin Roosevelt was appalled that neo Nazis fascists in America

(07:28):
we're lining up to essentially pledge their support for the
kind of government that they were seeing in Germany. So
I don't think we can ignore it.

Speaker 2 (07:42):
I mean, come on, the fact that they are going
back to this as we sit here a few days
out is testament to their entire strategy collapsing. And also
they're not being very many smart people to be able
to make an argument. Hard to argue against Trump when
you're the incumbent party. Also, Buck, I think the Madison

(08:06):
Square Garden rally is much like the Coachella in California
rally for Trump a sign that his numbers show him
potentially being able to win the national popular vote. And
let me be clear, I don't care how Trump wins.
I don't care if Trump wins by a sentilla, as

(08:27):
long as he ends up in the White House. To me,
winning is much like a sporting event. Whether you win
on the last second field goal to win the Super Bowl,
or you win by forty five and it's never close.
As long as the final score is in your favor
and you are the champion, I don't care how it happens.
I do think, though, for Trump, there is an element

(08:50):
of validation that he would take if he is able
to win the national popular vote, to say nothing of
the fact that that would make the electoral College even
more lopsided, because I think he knows that if he
wins and they sty'll say, oh, well, he actually lost
the popular vote. I think he sees this as an

(09:10):
opportunity to win. And when you look at the math,
if Trump wins Florida by the amount it looks like
he's going to win Florida, buy it basically cancels out
whatever happens in New York. And we know that Pennsylvania
and Michigan and Wisconsin, all the Midwest states are going

(09:30):
to be fairly close and kind of a wash overall.
We know that Trump is going to win the red
states in the South comfortably, which will cancel out the
rest of the Northeast. And then the question becomes, honestly,
from a math perspective, all of you listening to us
right now in Texas and at different points this year,

(09:51):
I think we've been number one in San Antonio, Houston,
El Paso, and Austin, everywhere but Dallas. We are now
on in Dallas. However, we appreciate you guys listening to
us in Dallas. We finally have just got that rolling.
But you and Texas can help to cut some of
the margin out of California. And we're talking about Trump

(10:14):
having a real shot in the popular vote. And I
think you heard us play earlier on CNN. The fact
that they're now having to acknowledge this, I mean, the
New York Times final poll has it dead. Even CNN's
final poll has it dead. Even LA Times is not
endorsing New York Times. Sorry, The Washington Post is not endorsing.
All these things are pushing towards Trump is looking.

Speaker 3 (10:36):
Very very good across the board.

Speaker 1 (10:38):
When you think about these like the New York Times
final New York Times poll has at a dead heat
today but as a four point margin of error, and
really realistically like Trump's not going to I don't think
Trump's up four points nationally right now.

Speaker 3 (10:53):
I agree with yeah, we're all vote.

Speaker 1 (10:55):
So my point is, there was no way in which
they were going to allow Trump to be ahead of Kamala. Okay, correct,
it doesn't whatever the numbers were. I'm just telling you
whoever's crunching them of the New York Times, they weren't
gonna send us into the week before the election with sorry, guys,
last New York Times Paul Trump's ahead. They weren't going
to do that. So it's a tie, is the best

(11:18):
that Trump? Wall Street Journal has Trump up three? All right? So,
just to give people a sense of where things really
stand here, I don't think there's a world in which
they would say that Trump is actually ahead if their
numbers were to show that he was gonna be up
one or two points. No, Marchinavera's four. It's a tie.
That house is why it's important. But for people who

(11:39):
may not understand their audience would revolt. If CNN is
telling them and The New York Times is telling them, hey,
Trump's gonna win, they would lose their minds because their
audience is left wing loon. I mean, also, think about
this for a second, like, how do they get up
and do boarding Joe? How do they get on CNN
to do these panels they're telling everybody that Kamala's losing

(12:00):
to Hitler. It's not like Kamala is losing to Mitt Romney,
who's like whatever, Like he's okay. I mean, he's gotten
the noise. But you know, it's not like Kamala is
losing to uh, some kind of you know, milk toast
Republican who's really Kamala is losing to Hitler. How could
that be? You know what I'm saying, Like, this is
a whole other It's not like he's, uh, just some

(12:22):
other Republican that's interchangeable. So I find the whole thing hilarious.

Speaker 2 (12:26):
But this is also why I really I don't know
how they're gonna handle them the meltdown. If we're right
and an eleven days Trump wins, and by the way,
we should take some.

Speaker 3 (12:37):
Of your calls.

Speaker 1 (12:37):
I might I might livestream MSNBC the election side away
and just do commentary because it will be.

Speaker 2 (12:45):
Menufek uh, it's gonna be it's it's gonna be musty television.
I just I'm getting giddy just thinking about how they're
going to be telling their audience. And look, if we
have to come in and we say, you know what,
Amaa pulled the strait that she needed, we were wrong. Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin,

(13:07):
she managed to win it, Omaha, are k kfab listeners?
They didn't get it done, Like we will bust ourselves off.

Speaker 3 (13:15):
That's right.

Speaker 1 (13:15):
Say you know we're going to get back into the fight. Everybody,
We're not. You know, this isn't And also there's no
way that she's going to have the House and the Senate,
so you'd have divided government and she's an imbecile and
can't get anything done. So I'm not that worried about policy.
We got to just get to the midterms. Look, there
is a plan B here if Kamala wins, and we're
telling you that up front too, just to be very clear.
What's funny to us is the Democrats have set up

(13:38):
a situation where they're like literally facing Hitler and they're
clearly not. And how do they turn around from that?
Like what do they say to everybody? You know, they'll
come up, they'll come up with something. You know, we're
just talking about Texas and how this is being chosen
at this stage of the campaign for Kamala Harris to
go campaign there? Why abortion wants abortion all the nine

(14:00):
months of a pregnancy legal in all fifty states? That
is what the Democrat Party wants. And unfortunately there are
some states like Colorado where it is absolutely the case.
There are others as well where there's no restriction whatsoever
on abortion. So they're happening, unfortunately at this very high pace,
even the aftermath of Roe v. Wade. We are working
to change hearts and minds in this country day in

(14:20):
and day out about greater protection for life on the
legal side, on the political side. But what do you
do about moms with babies in the womb today right
now who are making that choice. What can you, members
of the pro life community do to save a baby today,
to help in this process of bringing life into this world.

(14:40):
That's where the Preborn Network of Clinics comes in. They
are on the front lines right now doing this they
operate clinics in places where abortion rates are very high.
They specifically put their clinics there because they want moms
to be to have that better choice of support and
help and counseling and life. It starts with the ultrasound process.

(15:02):
Mom debe comes in. She says, I'm worried. I don't
know what to do. You know, I've got bills to pay,
the husband's not around or the you know, the father's
not around. What can I do? They give them? They
give this one the ultrasound. The ultrasound then shows or
the tiny baby growing in her womb, and then they say, look,
if you want help, will help you for not just
up to birth, two years after the baby's born, food, job, placement, assistance, whatever,

(15:25):
they can do. Anything they can do to help the
mom and little baby. But this is all funded buy
you the pro life community. Each ultrasound costs pre born
just twenty eight dollars, So if you can donate that
amount today, that would mean that there's an ultrasound that
will happen at one of these clinics and you could
be helping save a tiny baby's life. Some of you
have stepped up with thousands of dollars in donations and

(15:47):
that is so appreciated and such an incredible way to
show your generosity as a member of the pro life
community and to do something. Yeah, you got to vote,
but you got to take action as well. Dial pounds
two five zero and say baby to donate to Preborn
today pound two five zero twenty eight dollars two hundred
and eighty dollars whatever you can spare pound two five

(16:11):
zero say the word baby, or if you want to
just donate online. This is what I've done in the past.

Speaker 1 (18:01):

Bernie Marino in the mix. He is running against Sharon

(19:02):
Brown in Ohio for a critical Senate seat. Bernie, we
are in the final lapse here of this Grand Prix.
This very important race. Tell us where things stand right now,
what the critical final game plan is, and just take
it away. My friend.

Speaker 6 (19:23):
Well, we went from being down eleven at the end
of a very contentious primary to now we're up by
about three. We've had, obviously the deluge of advertising. This
will now be the most expensive non presidential race in
American history. So Ohio always have that little nugget of
a record. But what's going on now is with eleven

(19:44):
days left to go, Sharon Brown, who gets money from California, Massachusetts,
New York, is swampy the airwaves. So guys, I need
all the help I can get to fight back. We
need every one of your listeners to jump in Berniemarino
dot com if they could throw in five to ten
twenty five bots. We need all the money we can
get to make certain that we don't get out spent

(20:04):
and lose our edge in the last eleven days.

Speaker 2 (20:07):
Okay, you have the ability and all of the Ohio
voters do to not only put Trump in the White House,
and we expect Trump to win Ohio comfortably. But the
only way that you don't win is if there are
a lot of split ticket voters. Is that fair to say,
Part one, Part two, What would you say to anyone

(20:30):
out there that is voting Trump but not voting for you,
aren't they basically just handcuffing the guy they want to
be president.

Speaker 6 (20:40):
What's even worse because if you vote for President Trump
because you like himmy like his agenda, you know he's
going to get this country back on track. And if
you either don't vote for me, or heaven forbid, vote
for Sharon Brown, you're handing him Chuck Schumer, and Chuck
Schumer will stab him at the back and every turn,
just like he did for four years. He'll probably impeach
him within the first sixty days. So you have to
vote for President Trump. You have to vote for me,

(21:02):
Bernie Marino the United States Senate, go all the way
down to ticket. Look, this has got to be a
full throttled Republican ticket. Don't just stop at Trump, don't
just stop at me. This is a critical election.

Speaker 3 (21:13):
And we got to win by a mile.

Speaker 6 (21:14):
You know, China has got diplomats all over the world
telling people that America's gone, America's gone declined. They point
to the fact that we can't even define what a
woman is as proof that America is a country in decay.
We have to show a resounding victory in November fifth
and makes certain that we know that the world knows
that America is back and that we're not going to

(21:36):
go into communism or socialism. We're going to restore American principles.

Speaker 1 (21:40):
Bernie, how is the Brown campaign trying to position itself? Well,
first off, I mean, is your opponent making sure that
there's distance between himself and the eyes of the Ohio
electorate and Kamala's campaign? And also, what if any thing
is he offering as the economic agenda that he signs onto.

(22:04):
I mean, because as far as I understand that Kamala
are price control still in the mix, and and no
one even knows what Kamala's economic agenda is. So what
does Sharon Brown say he wants to sign on for.

Speaker 6 (22:15):
Well, he is running basically the same campaign as Kamala
Harris totally totally fraudulent. They pretend they're moderates, they pretend
they're bipartisan, they talk about joy. Of course, they have
nothing to run on because their policies are absolutely abominable.
I mean, they've led the higher prices, they've led to
an open border instability all over the world, ev mandates

(22:35):
and assault on American energy. So all they can do
is lie. He lies about me, disparaging ads one after
the other, completely false. He's got the Ohio media supporting them.
So look, what we're running on is very simple. Look
at the four years that President Trump was in office,
it's going to be even better. We're going to restore
many manufacturing here in Ohio. We're going to unleash American energy.

(22:56):
We're going to be a dominant player and energy. We're
going to have peace around the world. We're going to
have a secure border. We're going to absolutely expel anybody
in this country who isn't supposed to be here because
that's common sense. These are the things that we're going
to do. This is what they're afraid of. So look,
everybody that you can go on Berniemarina dot com and
help us out. But this last eleven days is critical.

Speaker 3 (23:19):
Bernie. What are you seeing on early vote?

Speaker 2 (23:21):
I know Ohio is relatively recent, but we hear from
a lot of people all over Ohio about early voting
that Republican turnout is strong there. What is the data
telling you and what would you tell people listening right now.
Do you want them out at the polls as early
as possible. What can they do to best help you?

Speaker 6 (23:39):
Whatever you're doing right now, if you can go vote,
go to your county Board of Elections and cast your vote.
Republicans are voting at higher numbers early than Democrats are.
We've had about two and a half weeks of early voting.
We have about a week and a half left. Go
bank your vote. It saves us a fortune. We don't
have to knock on your door, we don't have to
send you text we don't have to send you emails.

(24:00):
It's extremely important that we bank that vote. The weather
here in Ohio is beautiful, spectacular. We don't know what
November fifth is going to look like. Go bank your vote,
and you know what, guys, go vote eleven times. Vote
yourself and bring ten people with you, bring ten friends,
and let's jump in the car. Let's go vote early.
Let's get it done. If this sticks, If this early

(24:21):
voting numbers that we're seeing stick, this is going to
be a big election. And again it needs to be,
so go vote early.

Speaker 1 (24:29):
What's top of the agenda for you, Bernie, If you're
in a new Senate with a President Trump sitting atop
the executive branch and a Republican majority in the House.
I mean, I know you've got to work with your
Senate colleagues and the Trump administration two point zero to
get things done. But what would you like to see
at the absolute forefront, because that's going to come up

(24:50):
in just a few months if you win, which we
know you will.

Speaker 6 (24:54):
Look, we have to make certain that we respect what
the jobs all about. This is a job where I'm
asking to be hired by the people of Ohio to
represent them in Washington, DC. So all about if we
use taxpayer dollars to benefit America, to benefit our fellow citizens,
not put the interest of foreign nationals in foreign countries
ahead of Americans. It means securing our border, It means
lowering prices. It means that we have pieces stability around

(25:16):
the world, that we let people buy whatever the heck
they want to buy with their own money, that the
government doesn't tell us what to do or how to
live our lives. That we defend the Second Amendment. These
are the things that are on the ticket. This is
what it's all about. Look, I was at a charter
school called Matter Academy here in Columbus, Ohio. Earlier this week,
I went into a classroom of first graders. These are

(25:38):
five six year olds. They recognized me. They said, hey,
you're burning Marino. You're running against Sharon Brown. And the
one kid raises his hand and goes and shared Brown
is just too liberal for Ohio. Six year old gets it.
I think the voters of.

Speaker 3 (25:50):
Ohio get it.

Speaker 2 (25:52):
You mentioned being people raising money and helping you as
best they can. Burniemerno dot com I think is the website.
Buck and I were just talking about air Republicans are
being outspent, including President Trump, on the airwaves by a
substantial margin. What does it tell us about the better
side of the argument that, even with Democrats pouring more

(26:13):
money into the races, that Republicans are surging.

Speaker 6 (26:18):
Well, we have the better ideas, we have the better
track record. We're on the side of the American people.
They have an abysmal track record. They're on the side
of foreign countries that hate us. They're on the side
of illegal immigrants. They're on the side of just burning
our taxpayer dollars, not respecting the US citizens, not respecting
law and order. I'm proud to have the Border Patrol
agents Union endorse me. Look, this is about the machine

(26:41):
versus we the people, and we have to win. The
machine's got a lot more money the machine does. We
have to recognize that. But everybody's got to step up.
We've got to vote and treat the selection like our
country depends on it, because it does.

Speaker 1 (26:54):

the help we can get. Look, all hands on deck.
We're going to remember this election for a generation. This
is the election where America decided it stands for its
sounding principles, peace, prosperity, individual liberty, hard work and merit
versus a darkness of socialism.

Speaker 2 (27:24):
Bernie, fantastic stuff. We know you're gonna win. If you
want to come back on the last minute to drive
up turnout even more, we're happy to have you on

four a Sunday highlight reel from the week. Find it

Speaker 2 (29:08):
Welcome back in Clay Travis Buck Sexton show. We mentioned
the Washington Post not endorsing Kamala Harris, LA Times not
endorsing Kamala Harris, New York Times and CNN, both in
their final polls before the election, have it as dead.

Speaker 3 (29:23):
Even Brian Stelter, What does he sound like?

Speaker 1 (29:26):
Buck? Depends how bad of a day he's having, Clay,
but right now he needs his blaggie and a bottle.

Speaker 2 (29:34):
Here is his most recent tweet. A member of the
Washington Post editorial department tells me Bezos's Jeff Bezos. Of
course Amazon owns the Washington Post. Jeff bezos decision not
to endorse is quote an outrageous abdication of responsibility. Democracy
doesn't die in darkness. It dies when people anticipatorily consent

(29:57):
to a fascist win.

Speaker 1 (29:58):
Sorry, wait, this is the Keith Sorry is Stelter writing
that or is that?

Speaker 6 (30:03):
No?

Speaker 3 (30:03):
No, this is a quote.

Speaker 2 (30:04):
Okay from a member of the Washington Post editorial board.
Let me repeat the quote. I'm sorry, this is what
I'm saying, Like, you have to go out and vote
just because these people are losing their minds. Here is
what he says. The decision for the Washington Post not
to endorse is quote an outrageous abdication of responsibility. Democracy

(30:32):
doesn't die in darkness. It dies when people anticipatorily consent
to a fascist whims like this is like, I'm sharing
this tweet right now on my Twitter account at Clay Travis.
You can follow Buck at buck Sexton. I couldn't draft
a more perfect meltdown response to this than than this.

Speaker 1 (30:57):
It's just so funny too, because I think that they've
all well, they've all gotten so used to this degree
of self imposed hysteria that it doesn't this is kind
of where they operate normally. Does that make sense? Like
they're they've been saying that Trump is Hitler for so long.
It's been so many years and they've been saying fascism

(31:17):
is coming for so many years that this isn't They
don't know what to do if they're not doing this.
I mean, I think this has become a distraction for
a lot of people who, yes, are democrats or left
of center whatever. I think the American left is so
full of people who are honestly mentally ill and untreated,

(31:38):
emotionally unstable, and feel like they lack a sense of
purpose and a sense of harmony with themselves, that they
like they've become addicted to the notion of, oh my god,
fascism is literally coming tomorrow, and this allows them to
escape all responsibility for their disappointing lives in their minds.

(31:59):
It's like the old Men escapism, right, It's the days
before the asteroid in the movie is about to hit Earth,
and everyone's just like, well, I guess nothing matters.

Speaker 2 (32:07):
Well again, the challenge that they have is and I
do think the history on this, because I'm a history nerd,
is going to be so amazing to read. And I
wish I could, you know, cryogenically freeze myself near death
and come back one hundred years later and be able
to read all the history. But but I mean, Buck,
they are They're the bad guys, and they've convinced themselves

(32:31):
that they're the good guys. But really this, I think
this ties in so much with COVID. COVID was the
distillation of their misguided hope that the world would end
if Trump were elected, and COVID was the Trump asteroid
moment for them that allowed them to buy into the

(32:52):
idea that Trump was going to destroy the world. And
then COVID happens, and then they get January sixth, and
it was a gleeful moment for them. They were so
ecstatic that Republicans rioted in any way on January sixth.
They were reveling in it because it fulfilled all of

(33:14):
the mind woke, mind virus ideas of theirs.

Speaker 3 (33:18):
And then here's the problem.

Speaker 2 (33:19):
Biden got into office and everything got worse, and everything
that they said would happen if Trump were in office
actually happened with Biden in office. And so now they're
going back to the well once again where Trump will
destroy everything if he's elected. The problem is, COVID doesn't happen.

(33:40):
Trump gets elected, and the Trump era is ending right now,
and we're moving on to a new incumbent. Now their
big bad boogeyman is going to be back and they
can't get rid of him.

Speaker 1 (33:51):
I just we should mark down this show because in
six months, I can assure you if Trump wins, and
we both think he's going to win, but we can't
see the future. But in six months, if Trump as president,
there won't be fascism. There won't. It'll be a pretty
like normal day in America. Donald Trump will be doing

(34:11):
some good things in the White House and working on
some problems, and all this hysteria is just going to
be something that the Democrats will pretend never happened, and
in fact they'll have replaced it with I don't know
if it'll be Russia collusion again, or they'll come up
with some other point of hysteria. Trump is a white nationalist,
like this is the only way. Notice the arguments against
Trump almost never involve he made a policy decision and

(34:35):
the consequences for the country were bad. You never hear that,
you know, when we trash the Biden administration, it's because
of things like making specific choices that kicked open the border.
And the numbers speak for themselves. Ten million illegals roughly
in four years, and this is terrible for the country.

(34:56):
It's a huge expense, it's lawlessness. You know, we sit
here and go through the why do they hate Trump?
Clay He's a racist, he's a sexist, he's a rapist,
he's a he's a missopachist, he's fascist.

Speaker 3 (35:07):
He's here.

Speaker 1 (35:07):
You know, it's all just hatred of this guy, and
they wonder why people who aren't just automaton brainwash Democrats
don't just go along with this. Well, they never make
a coherent argument. And by the way, you know what
they deserve. You know how much they hate Trump. They
deserve Trump to be president because a lot of things.

(35:31):
But also, Kamala Harris, this is the best the Democrat
Party could do. I'm just gonna say it. If we
end up with Trump as a country, and that'd be fantastic.
But if we end up with Trump as a country,
it is in large part due to Democrats putting forward
one of the worst candidates. I mean, the worst I
think I've ever seen at this level of politics. Ted

(35:51):
talk time, almost all failure. You're responsible for you yourself.
Will Democrats be willing to stare into the mirror and
acknowledge that they created this, or will they decide that
Trump is Hitler and continue down this pathway if Trump wins.

(36:14):
Self reflection, self acknowledgment, self awareness, and personal responsibility is
not their strong suit. An honest party buck would say,
Biden did this, Kamala did this. We did this to
ourselves by putting her forward and trying to cover up
Biden's dementia. I don't know fully whether they can acknowledge that,

(36:34):
which is why I think they're going to fall back on.
Trump is evil and we didn't do enough to tell
people how evil he was. We'll talk about that some more.

Speaker 2 (36:44):
We still haven't played Hillary and Madison Square Garden, right,
we'll have some fun with that audio I can't remember.
I think we will have some fun with it regardless.
