Speaker 1 (00:00):
The second hour, Clay and Buck kicks off. Now the
celebration show, celebrating good times. Come on, everybody, It's fantastic,
probably the greatest day in politics of all time. People
are saying amazing victory, amazing victory for Donald Trump, and
here he is talking about how it just was as

(00:21):
good as it possibly really could have been.

Speaker 2 (00:23):
Play cut three.

Speaker 3 (00:24):
This sound clear that we've achieved the most incredible political there.

Speaker 2 (00:29):
Look what happened?

Speaker 3 (00:31):
Is this crazy? But it's a political victory that our
country has never seen before, nothing like this. I want
to thank the American people for the extraordinary honor of
being elected your forty seventh president and your forty fifth president,

(00:59):
and every center and I will fight for you, for
your family and your future. Every single day.

Speaker 4 (01:06):
I will be fighting for you, and.

Speaker 3 (01:08):
With every breath in my body, I will not rest
until we have delivered the strong, safe, and prosperous America
that our children deserve and that you deserve. This will
truly be the Golden Age of America.

Speaker 4 (01:24):
And that's what we happened.

Speaker 1 (01:30):
I got to say, Clay, the tone from the Trump campaign,
it's what we were all expecting. But it's just so
nice to see that the stuff that was being said
by Democrats in the last days they all look like
frauds and phonies, and the whole thing was absurd that

(01:51):
Trump was some dark and nefarious force and they're going
to use the military against people in this changing all
this stuff. Trump is promising to kick ass for America.
He really is, and that is his mission, that is
his mandate, to give us a secure border, to give
us the biggest economic boom that we've seen, perhaps in
our lifetime, certainly the biggest deregulatory push for the economy

(02:15):
that we've ever witnessed, to do more good trade deals
like he did in term one. Just this is it's
gonna be good for everybody. That's the part of it
where we can feel really good. This isn't about oh,
our guy one and now all the rest of you
Americans who didn't vote for him, you get to suffer.
It's like, no, but we're not going to have a

(02:36):
federal government that's trying to push, you know, transgender surgery
on minors, and we're not gonna have a federal government
that's obsessed with a diversity politics and DEI nonsense and
all the rest of it. It's a restoration of sanity.
And I just feel like there's a comm for those
of us who are willing to embrace it. There is
a comm that is descending across America. Along with the

(02:59):
euphoria of the huge victory. The crazies didn't win this one.

Speaker 2 (03:03):
Yes, thank the Lord.

Speaker 5 (03:05):
Let me hit you with a couple of news things here, Buck,
we mentioned earlier.

Speaker 2 (03:09):
You see this.

Speaker 5 (03:09):
The stock market is up fourteen hundred points today, the Dow.
That is the biggest jump that I can ever remember.
That's three point three percent overall to an all time
record high. That is Wall Street saying, hey, this guy
actually has economic plans. Things are going to start booming again.

(03:31):
Almost every stock is up across the board. So if
you have a four to oh one k or you
are invested in the stock market, not only did you
get an incredible Donald Trump win last night, now you're
getting already a big pop in your pocket.

Speaker 2 (03:47):
Buck.

Speaker 5 (03:47):
Also, the New York Times has called Michigan officially for
Donald Trump. I believe this is the first call that
I've seen of Michigan.

Speaker 2 (03:57):
So the famed.

Speaker 5 (03:58):
Blue Wall has been ravaged by Donald Trump. It has
fallen yet again. Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin. All go read
all vote for Trump. And this takes Trump up to
buck two hundred and ninety two electoral votes. Only two

(04:19):
states still to be called Nevada, where Trump is going
to win close Senate race. Captain Sam Brown has a
real chance to win that Senate race. That's worth paying
a lot of attention to. Some of you out there
may be able to cure your ballots if somehow you
screwed it up. So if you're in Nevada, pay attention
to this because it may come down to a couple
of hundred votes before all it's said and done. Yeah

(04:42):
and yeah, sorry, no, I was gonna say that. I'm
not sure we've mentioned I think you probably did. Off
the very top of the show, Clay, looks like Trump's
gonna win the popular.

Speaker 2 (04:51):
Vote, which is a huge Yes.

Speaker 1 (04:54):
Additional, I understand it's an electoral college election, but the
popular vote.

Speaker 2 (04:59):
First of all, when Democrats win it, they scream that
we should get rid of the electoral college.

Speaker 1 (05:03):
Just like all of a sudden, they're all going to
be big fans of the filibuster. Real soon they were
running a Kamala campaign talking about We're going to get
rid of the philibuster and have abortion rights all nine
months of a pregnancy in all fifty states. All of
a sudden, the philibusters about about to get really important
to Democrats. They have no principles, as you know, It's
just the emotion driven pursuit of power at the expense

(05:24):
of anything and everything else. But I have to say,
winning the popular vote is for a narrative piece and
for what goes into the perception of whether you want
he's a term mandate or not. I mean the perception
of a big win. Here's Trump talking about it. This
has cut five the popular vote. It looks like he's

(05:45):
done it.

Speaker 2 (05:47):
We also have.

Speaker 3 (05:50):
Won the popular vote.

Speaker 4 (05:51):
That was great, Thank you, Thank you very much, shack Now,

(06:12):
winning the popular vote.

Speaker 2 (06:14):
Was very nice, so very nice. I will tell you it's.

Speaker 3 (06:18):
A great a great feeling of love.

Speaker 2 (06:19):
We have a great feeling of love in this very
large room. Very nice, great feeling of love. Clay.

Speaker 5 (06:25):
The popular vote for big Trump. We just mentioned Michigan.

Speaker 2 (06:30):
I love that.

Speaker 5 (06:31):
I don't know if we mentioned this. I did say
that he was going to win the popular vote, and
a lot of you told me I was crazy for that.
I think I said it like a month ago that
I didn't just want to. I mean, he said it.
He wants it to be too big to rig when
you win the popular vote. That makes it tough. A
lot of different data points that are interesting, buck this
one out of Michigan in twenty twenty Dearborn Michigan, huge
Arab population. We got a great affiliate in southeastern Michigan.

(06:54):
Some of them may be listening to us right now.
Biden won the Arab vote by seventy seven in Dearborn Michigan,
eighty eight to eleven over Trump. Twenty twenty four, Dearborn Michigan.
Trump beat Harris by seven forty three percent. Trump thirty
six percent, Harris eighteen percent. Jill Stein, that's a protest

(07:16):
vote of people that didn't want to vote for Kamala Harris.
So Trump swung Dearborn Michigan. We talked about this long
time ago after October seventh, because my wife's from Michigan,
I've spent a lot of time there. I said, this
is an interesting state that Kamala is going to have
or Biden's going to have challenges. And because there's a
large Arab population in southeast Michigan, and there's also a

(07:39):
large Jewish population, and given the issues in the Middle East,
it's going to be a hard line to tread. Trump
actually did better with Jewish voters in Michigan than he
did in twenty and he did better with Muslim voters
Arab voters than he did in twenty as well, which
is I mean, that's kind of an incredible accomplishment in
and of itself that he was able to do better

(08:00):
with both.

Speaker 1 (08:01):
And it's something that we were expecting. I would say
here on the show, and others recognize this was likely
to happen to Clay. While they're saying that Trump is
such a such a racist, he did very well and
and increased his numbers with Hispanic voters. I think he's
going to be somewhere in the in the forties when

(08:23):
all said and done nationwide on Hispanic voters, which is
he's winning almost half of the Hispanic elector at nationwide. Okay,
that's that's what we're looking at here. This is the
guy that say, oh, you know, he's he's such a
racist and a xenophobe and all this stuff. People didn't
buy into that nonsense, which which is really encouraging to see.

Speaker 2 (08:41):
And look, this.

Speaker 1 (08:43):
Is we got a few more things to button up
here at the end. I really hope Sam Brown's able
to pull out that Senate seed to Nevada. He's a
great patriot, a man who's done a tremendous amount and
sacrifice a tremendous amount for his country and wants to
serve now in the Senate. He deserves it, he should
get it. So I hope that that all comes through.
We'll see about Kerry Lake.

Speaker 5 (09:04):
She's got a little bit of a steeper climb, I
think at this point, but she's still in it. She's
still in it. You know, it's just about the votes
getting counted.

Speaker 1 (09:12):
Do I want to go down the pathway of you
know what, No, today's celebration day. I was just thinking, really,
fifteen million votes just disappeared that were there in twenty
twenty for the Democrats.

Speaker 2 (09:23):
Fifteen million votes just not around any.

Speaker 5 (09:27):
We're going to have some fun with this down the
line when all of the tally is in for twenty
twenty four. I think what you're going to see is
that Trump basically replicated his voters, maybe added a few
million on top of it of what he got in
twenty twenty. Meanwhile, Democrats were in no way able to

(09:47):
bring back their eighty one million. That's kind of interesting,
isn't it?

Speaker 3 (09:51):
So?

Speaker 2 (09:52):
Can I fine? You know what, you're right, Today's celebration day.

Speaker 1 (09:54):
I don't want to revisit twenty twenty, not because we're
not going to talk at Oh, we're going to talk
about it. I just today, Today is wind day. Today
we walk around, we're high fiving each other, we're hugging
family members, we're hugging co workers. Well, if they allow
you to do that where you work, or if you
know them well enough, high fiving, you know, fish pounding,
all that kind of stuff. Clay, there was this magical place,

(10:17):
this magical land that some of you referred to as
buck Island. And buck Island was premise on a very
straightforward promise, a promise that the Democrats would not be
even with dementia, Joe would not be so foolish no
matter what happens, as to pin their hopes on Kamala Harrison.

(10:39):
Many people moved, and many people bought Waterford real estate.
And then it went like Atlantis of old down beneath
the ocean waves, and you got a steak out of it.
Can I just ask amazing.

Speaker 2 (10:50):
Where did we go in Miami? Notppy steak here? Miami's
man was good, so good? But where are you now?

Speaker 6 (10:58):
On?

Speaker 5 (10:59):
You mentioned the Jill Biden read I mentioned that on
the show. We haven't mention talking about that off the air,
I think because I wanted to make sure it was right.
So let's lean into this for a second. Because there's
Jill Biden showed up to vote wearing bright red top
and bottom pantsuit. Yeah, which is a is a strange
thing to do as a Democrat on election day.

Speaker 1 (11:20):
I think people recognize it a little bit of weird move.
Do you think now the narrative is going to get
louder and get backed up by more and more heavy
hitters that they shouldn't have abandoned Joe, the.

Speaker 5 (11:32):
Coup was a bad idea. What's your take? I think
there will be that argument. I think there will be
a counter narrative that the Kamala team tries to push,
which is she only had one hundred days to run
and Biden should have dropped out earlier. I think there'll
be three primary arguments here, Buck, and I think they're
all going to kind of run into each other. One

(11:53):
is Joe Biden would have done better. Two is Kamala
didn't have enough time and that's why she didn't do
well enough because Joe Biden waited too long to drop out.
And then the third tier is going to be we
should have had a mini primary instead of elevating Kamala
because remember that's what George Clooney argued for in his
New York Times editorial that helped to put the pressure

(12:14):
on Joe Biden was we need to have a mini
primary and let everybody kind of compete. I don't know
how that would have worked. That's I think what Barack
Obama would have wanted. So I think you're going to
have three different conflicting storylines all coming to a head.
Joe Biden in the all red outfit. Are you kidding me?

Speaker 2 (12:33):
Buck?

Speaker 5 (12:33):
I've been going on the road to do college football
games for a long time. I never ever pack clothing
that is in the color of the teams that are
playing because I'm supposed to be sitting on big noon
set or I'm supposed to be doing reporting. I'm not
supposed to pick sides, right, I'm supposed to be like, hey,
this is a great game. The idea that she would

(12:55):
wear an all red outfit. To go vote is such
a double barrel middle finger to Kamala Harris and everyone else.
There's no way that's like, there's no way she didn't
stand in front of her mirror and think, wait a minute,
the biggest color that signifies the Republican Party is red.
I'm going to vote like that was an intentional message

(13:16):
she was sending of Fu, I think to Kamala her, I.

Speaker 1 (13:18):
Can tell you this if you're a senior Biden advisor,
if you're a Biden family member.

Speaker 2 (13:24):
Oh, I also, I truly believe this.

Speaker 1 (13:26):
I the reckoning must happen, and I we're gonna get
into all this or what's it gonna be like if
you have doctor Latipoe of Florida in charge of HHS,
or you have Bobby Kennedy Junior in charge of the
FDA slash Government Accountability and Health Panel, whatever. Right, there's
a lot of these things, Clay. I just totally got

(13:47):
myself off track of where I wanted to go there
for I got so excited about the other things we're
gonna do.

Speaker 2 (13:52):
What were you saying just a second.

Speaker 5 (13:53):
Ago, I was talking about Joe Biden and the fallout
of this particular Oh, I'm sorry, Yeah, which is gonna
be amazing. I think Trump's I think Trump should preemptively
Joe's going to do it, But I think Trump should
say that that as an act of bringing the country together,
he would pardon Hunter Biden. Look, Hunter Biden's not going
away for long anyone anywhere anyway. Everyone, He's gonna get

(14:14):
pardoned either way, understand that. So if I'm Trump, I
would just say, you know, Hunter's been through a lot.
He's obviously facing some real time. He's the sitting president's son.
Lawfair is not the way. Now, this wasn't lawfair, But
you know what I mean. I think that this is
an opportunity for Trump to set the tone. We're not
gonna be petty. We're gonna be just.

Speaker 1 (14:36):
Now, that doesn't mean you let everyone, let everyone go,
it doesn't mean you forget about what's been done. But
we're not gonna be petty. That's actually what the pardon
power is fundamentally for.

Speaker 2 (14:45):
Right.

Speaker 1 (14:46):
Yeah, it's super illegal, it's beyond legal. It's what's in
the best interests of the country and of justice in
a macro sense. So anyway, I think that the Trump
should say he would pardon Hunter Biden, and you know
we can all just discuss whether or not that's a
good idea.

Speaker 6 (15:04):
Well.

Speaker 1 (15:04):
Also, again some of your calls here, Ryan or Dusky's
going to do a big numbers breakdown for us in
the third hour, So if you want to just geek
out with the data, we'll do that. But like I said,
I mean, also send us some vip emails at clambuck
dot com, like, how are you celebrating Trump victory day?
Because you should be. You really should take it, take
some time today and celebrate however you choose. I thought

(15:25):
Clay was going to tell us how he's celebrating, But you.

Speaker 5 (15:27):
Know, I am celebrating by just being proud that I
can still talk after all of the screaming and yelling
that I was doing last night, as everybody heard me
on the video this morning. Uh, you're doing well for
a guy, a guy who was up till three o'clock
in the morning and got like three hours of sleep.

Speaker 2 (15:41):
I gotta say I'm impressed. It has been master so far. Uh.

Speaker 7 (16:39):
Two guys walk up to a mic Hey, anything goes
Clay Travis and Fuck Sexton. Find them on the free
iHeartRadio app or wherever you get your podcasts.

Speaker 5 (16:52):
Welcome back in Clay Travis Buck Sexton show. We're just
laughing about a lot of the different results and enjoying
with all of you. Eight hundred and two A two
two eight am too. I do love seeing all of
the blue check journals now obviously there's a lot of
more blue checks now, but having to report on their
exit polls and like how actual normal people voted Trump

(17:12):
one voters who say democracy is very threatened fifty to
forty eight in the CNN exit pole. I can you
imagine like like a potato head over there seeing that result,
like Stelter, Oh my goodness, you've heard about that.

Speaker 2 (17:26):
Democracy? We lost democracy?

Speaker 1 (17:29):
Yeah, of course. Look a couple of things I'll throw
in there. One Clay is lawfair is truly a direct
threat to democracy. Law fair against political candidates is the
end of our system, full stop. That is just the
way it is. So that lost. Another thing I want
to put in the next two, Yeah, nonviolent J six
individuals pardons and then J six people that were treated

(17:52):
unfairly by the system where needed were justified commutation. I
think that, you know, talking about people if they did
something violent or anyway. We'll get into more of that,
but yeah, obviously Trump I think steps in on that.

Speaker 2 (18:05):
We'll talk about it in a second.

Speaker 1 (18:06):
You know, there's a Wall Street veteran out there who
makes a bold prediction that relates to this Friday. I
know we're all focused on the election, but he says
this Friday, something big is gonna happen, and he's got
a lot of experience on Wall Street. He says, November eighth,
we'll bring open the biggest rapid fire money making opportunity
of his fifty year career. In short, it disconnected the
stock market has opened a way to spot potential buying

(18:27):
spreeze on five thousand different stocks before they occur, and
it could double your portfolio. Sky has real gravitas. He
recommended an AI stock ten years ago which would have
made you thirty two thousand percent if you'd bought and held.
Go to Stocks twenty twenty five dot com for details
on this strange new discovery and how he says you
could double your portfolio over the next year. Stocks twenty

(18:49):
twenty five dot com for this presentation. Again Stocks twenty
twenty five dot com. A great day for America, A
bad day for communism, but a great day for America.

Speaker 2 (19:02):
And I hope you're all feeling it.

Speaker 1 (19:04):
So it's so fun to just be able to talk
to all of you, and m clay and I have
been looking forward to this moment. We got a close
but no cigar situation in twenty twenty two, but let's
be real, that.

Speaker 2 (19:14):
Was a midterm. This is way bigger.

Speaker 1 (19:17):
If you could have picked this or you know, this
victory or twenty twenty two is the red wave that
we were hoping anticipating. This is much bigger, stakes, much
more important. And so it feels like there has been
a restoration of faith here and it is a great thing,
a great day. And I know we were telling you vote, vote, vote,

(19:40):
go celebrate. You did it. You did it, You made
it happen. You got out there, you told people, you
knocked on doors, you did mail or as you donated
to your favorite candidate, or you just made sure to
tell your neighbors who are a little lazy maybe about
getting to the polls. You got to get to the polls.
You did it. We won the good guys victorious. Which

(20:01):
is the funny thing is it benefits even the bad guys,
so to speak. It's going to be a better country
for the Democrats too, which is why we're so confident
that this was the right thing overall. Right, it's not
it's not our side wins. Their side is now ruined
and life is awful for them. No, Democrats, I'm not
talking about the apparatus. That's a different thing. There's going

(20:22):
to be a cleaning out of the apparatus. But Democrats will,
despite their intentions otherwise, they'll benefit from what we are
seeing in substantial ways. I think Trump is uh, he
has learned a lot. He is he is in a
position to carry the agenda further than he would have.

Speaker 5 (20:38):
Been even if he even if he had won in
twenty twenty. Clay, Yes, everyone should feel really really good
about where things are right now as a country.

Speaker 2 (20:48):
You may get some noise in that.

Speaker 5 (20:50):
You think we'll get some noise about jump Cheetah or
something green. Oh, I don't want now. Kamala is supposed
to concede at four Eastern teens. Let me know unless
that's changed. That's the last I've seen. Word is that
she has not called Donald Trump, that Joe Biden has
not called Donald Trump. I don't know why Biden would.
I guess he congratulate Trump. Maybe that standard we haven't

(21:12):
had that many times when somebody's leaving office. Maybe he'll
end up doing that. But you were talking about the
consequences already. ABC News, Fox News, multiple outlets out there,
buck Now reporting that Jack Smith is ending his prosecutions
of Donald Trump and leaving the Department of Justice. This
is amazing, What a hell that guy?

Speaker 2 (21:34):
Can we Let's take a moment, Clay.

Speaker 1 (21:36):
Let's talk about some of the biggest l's here for
people who weren't even on the ballot. Yes, Doug m Hoff,
that's rough, all the all the back.

Speaker 5 (21:45):
Of the hand memes with Doug m Hoff. That guy
did not benefit from their attempt to make.

Speaker 2 (21:52):
Him the new kind of first man.

Speaker 5 (21:54):
Or whatever they were gonna call him. How about Marks, gentlemen,
how about Mark Mark Cuban.

Speaker 8 (21:59):
I saw what I've seen all the memes with Cuban
and Matdow. I just that's the best way I could
describe it. But there the memes are out there, Mark Cuban, big.

Speaker 2 (22:09):
L for him.

Speaker 5 (22:11):
Elon Musk, Elon Musk, Like if you were analyzing like
people's popularity and influence and success like Elon Musk. I
mean just in the business context, but obviously Elon's far
more successful. But I mean in the political context. Elon
gets on board the Trump train and now just wins amazingly.
Mark Cuban, for some reason gets on the Kamala caboose

(22:32):
and just basically destroyed any of his fan base that
he still had. I mean, it's really kind of wild.
Sorry I cut you off, but it is funny to
me to kind of think about those two guys and
the different trajectories they take now in the wake of
the decisions they made in the election.

Speaker 1 (22:47):
And then then that brings us to womp mister Walls. Oh, yes,
the hero of several deployments to beautiful Italian towns with
excellent Neapolitan pizza and a Broadway show tunes enthusiasts. From
what we can tell, Tim Walls didn't get it done

(23:12):
with the Midwestern voters, with the guy voters, with any
of the voters. But I'm gonna I'm gonna give I'm
gonna give a little charity or a little good faith
here to the Kamala campaign. You know what, man, I
don't think I don't think it was gonna make a difference.
It would have been smarter to pick Shapiro, for sure,
no question. But when you see these numbers in this reality,

(23:34):
I don't think I think Kamala was the problem. The
message was the problem. The four years of Biden was
the problem. You can't change that with a VP pick. Tim, Yes,
I agree, But Tim Walls, I mean, what a loser
that guy was. And how about the fact that they
tried to tell us that he was gonna win over
football fans. This is something that I felt very confident about.

(23:54):
Uh And I give you credit because you held the wall.
You were very confident at no point point once Kamala
got elevated, you never believed remotely this year ever gonna win.
Never she was Clay knows. I did not waiver for
one day. I was like, Trump will win one hundred percent.

Speaker 5 (24:10):
There was about a month, I would say, like mid
August to mid September where I got really nervous with
the debate. In September tenth, if I remember, she came
out of the gate, she got the bump, It seemed
like she had some enthusiasm. I really think this race turned.
If you want to talk about when really kind of
Trump took command, I think it was JD versus Walls

(24:33):
in the VP debate. And I don't remember the exact
date of the VP debate. I felt like it was
very early October, but I felt like basically a lot
of people looked at JD and I thought he wiped
the floor with walls, and they said, okay, Trump is
seventy eight. By the way, one of you out there
who listens has sent me forty eight emails that I

(24:57):
got Trump's age wrong. And when I said he was
seventy nine, my humblest apologies, of all the things that
you could send me, forty eight emails about Trump is
seventy eight right now. I think he turned seventy nine soon.
My apologies to the lady out there that is deeply
offended that I have misaged Donald Trump. But I think
JD in that performance had such a captive He was

(25:21):
an eloquent version of Trump, and I think JD said
a lot of things that people wanted Trump to have
said against Kamala.

Speaker 2 (25:28):
And I think it was just from there the after
burners were on.

Speaker 1 (25:32):
Not just because as we know, JD was my early
on prediction, but I think the JD's the choice of
JD by Trump also showed a learning curve that had
occurred with Trump and just the next generation. I mean,
when you think, here's a fascinating question that I've been

(25:53):
banning about in my own Headclay I'll put to you
and everyone with us right now, who's the leader of
the Democrat Party?

Speaker 2 (25:59):
Right now?

Speaker 1 (26:01):
Who's the leader of the Democrat Party? Like the de
facto leader right because Obama, through his whole weight behind
Kamala didn't do a darn thing. Now, Obama, it's interesting,
has never been good at getting other people elected.

Speaker 2 (26:16):
Yea, His power.

Speaker 5 (26:17):
Personal magnetism only extends like to himself, it doesn't extend beyond.

Speaker 2 (26:22):
Him exactly right.

Speaker 1 (26:23):
He's not been his endorsement because Obama was really he's
not so much a movement as he is one talented
demagogue politician. He but you know that's Obama. You look
at the Republican side of things, and there are all
these people now that are around Trump, I mean JD
most notably as the vice president, but there are others.

(26:45):
There's a whole rung and Elon I mean the team
of advisors slash just Trump Tier one. I don't know
how better to describe. It is a mix of incredibly accomplished,
very interesting, not dawnmadically right wing necessarily people, but redpilled
and maga. Now, yeah, so you can see what the

(27:08):
future looks like on the Democrat side, what they're really, Oh.

Speaker 2 (27:12):
We found this guy, Gavin Newsom. He's amazing.

Speaker 1 (27:15):
You know, I don't know what they do right now.
I don't know who the leader of the Democrat Party is.
I don't think they have a bench to speak of.
They got to figure this out.

Speaker 5 (27:23):
I think they would argue Josh Shapiro and Gretchen Wimer,
but their governors and their terms are gonna be up.
And I'm not sure you're reacting face wise kind of
the way I do when I hear those. I'm not
sure there's no Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer's done, Hakeem Jeffery's
not going to be It doesn't look like the House speaker.
They're kind of off the stage, And I think you're right.
There's an incredible void of leadership at the top of

(27:44):
the Democrat Party. By the way, Maddie in Utah wants
to weigh in. Maddie, you're a twenty year old college
student voting for the first time.

Speaker 2 (27:53):
How did you vote and why?

Speaker 6 (27:56):
Hey, guys, I voted for Donald Trump, and I cast
my vote because I believe that he won and over
performed with the young adults and first time voters of
this country. Because we had to live live through COVID
and how it disrupted our high school experiences so much

(28:20):
and just impacted us so much. And then we went
from that to trying to pay rent in this awful economy.
And I think that we really just said that we
are done with it and that we want to fix
this this country.

Speaker 5 (28:38):
Maddie, we appreciate you listening. I think that's an eloquent
description of the way that a lot of people your
age feel.

Speaker 2 (28:44):
Buck.

Speaker 5 (28:44):
You can imagine, thank you for calling Maddie. If you
lost your senior year of high school in March, you
were going to have prom, you were going to play
in a sport, you were looking forward to what that
experience would be like down the stretch, and then you
went away to college and they wouldn't let you sit
in a classroom and without wearing a mask, and they
tried to restrict your ability to go out and hang
out and go to a party. I think there's a

(29:06):
lot of young people that have been red pilled over
that Buck who looked around and said, all of the
people who were supposed to be taking care of us,
the adults in our lives failed us, and the Democrat
Party adults failed the biggest.

Speaker 1 (29:20):
You see now, I know I like to joke around
about how Clay took a chariot to school, and you know,
I'm more moderate and stuff.

Speaker 5 (29:26):
We're only a couple of years apart. We are technically
in different generations. You're gen X. I believe you're like,
we saved America YOUNGUS last night. I hate to give
Clay and his generation so much credit. I'm a graybeard
millennial technically, so I'm a millennial. Clay is jen X
gen X people?

Speaker 2 (29:45):
For what is it?

Speaker 5 (29:46):
Forty five to sixty is that the gen X? I
know it's the youngest. I'm the youngest gen X. Gen
X goes through the end. I believe of seventy nine.
I was born in nineteen seventy nine, so I think
that's the oldest five sixty five to seventy nine, whatever
the math would be. I think Obama's the oldest gen X,
and I think I'm the youngest. I think that's the range.

Speaker 1 (30:05):
Gen X pulled out all the stops for Trump in
this election, which I didn't hear anyone predicting that.

Speaker 5 (30:13):
By the way, well, jen has tended to be a
base for Trump interestingly over the years. But I didn't
expect for gen X to outperform older Americans.

Speaker 1 (30:24):
Yes, gen X delivered this Trump victory. So those of
you who are whatever it is, forty five to sixty, yeah, roughly, yeah,
you did it. You're you're the ones that decided that
enough was enough. Millennials, I think unfortunately my co cohorp.
But you know, we got a bunch of loons running

(30:45):
around the millennial side. I think went majority for the
Democrats this time.

Speaker 5 (30:52):
Phil's good buck. Thank you gen X. I'm your youngest member,
and by god, we saved America last night. There was

your driver's license that got stolen, you were in a
big deal of trouble. Not the case anymore now. If
your online identification stolen, that's a way bigger deal because

matter of minutes. They can open accounts in your name,
make purchases, and if they have the right online info,
they can even access your credit cards and your bank balance.

our lives. No shortage of ways your data can be stolen.

Speaker 5 (32:14):
Welcome back in Clay, Travis Buck Sexton show a lot
of you wanting to weigh in as we can well
imagine and.

Speaker 2 (32:25):
Vip.

Speaker 5 (32:25):
Karen says, my husband Sam and I are celebrating the
Red Wave by day drinking two for one margaritas at
our local Mexican restaurant in Monticello.

Speaker 2 (32:34):
Florida.

Speaker 5 (32:35):
That sounds pretty awesome. Actually, I hope you guys have fun.
Karen Jen says, I'm celebrating vipgen today by going to
McDonald's before work and ordering the large fries with my
chicken chicken nuggets and doctor Pepper. I'm so happy and
relieved and VIP David says, Rush would be so proud
of you guys today and of Trump. I mean, I

(32:56):
know a lot of you are probably thinking about Rush
today as we are going through because boy, oh boy,
would he have loved being able to talk about this
landslide election victory. And Buck, as we start to look
back through the data, it's likely the case that Rush
wasn't even on air for his national show the last

(33:16):
time Republicans had a win like this, and maybe all
the way back to nineteen eighty four in the Mondelle
wipeout by Ronald Reagan. Certainly at least back to eighty eight.
We're talking about an historic win for Donald Trump. That
just I mean, you know there's times in your life, Buck,
and you may experience this when you have a kid

(33:36):
one day where for a while you're just kind of
walking on air and you just find yourself smiling and
because your life has just gone so well. Something that
you didn't necessarily anticipate but hoped would go well has happened.
And a lot of you who have young kids know
that feeling, like when you become a parent, you'll be
going through a struggle at work or something's going a

(33:58):
little bit bad, and then you'll just think about the
kid home and you'll just kind of smile. It's a
change in your life on a smaller scale compared to
becoming a parent. But I just find myself wanting to
smile everywhere I walk around today. I just I mean,
if you're watching on the camera, I tend to be
a pretty optimistic, happy, go lucky guy in general. But
I can't tell you how spectacular last night was, and

(34:22):
Buck you were mentioning sixteen sixteen was great, but it
was unexpected, narrow. It wasn't the full endorsement of everything
that Trump stood for like we just saw in twenty four.

Speaker 1 (34:38):
In twenty sixteen, it was Trump was this political phenomenon
who managed to outplay and sneak up on the system,
and it was really this this extended middle finger to
the power structure that had on both the right and
the Left in different ways that had been existing up
to that point. This time around, it was we had Trump,

(35:02):
we had something else. Oh my gosh, can we have
Trump again?

Speaker 2 (35:06):
You know what I mean?

Speaker 1 (35:07):
It was a validation of what he did in his
first term versus what the Democrats bring to the table.
It also was Trump being able to go on this
hero's journey of just the stuff they raided mar A Lago.
I mean, we haven't forgotten about any of this. They

(35:27):
brought four criminal indictments against him. We were having to
have serious conversations about whether they were going to send
Trump to Rikers Island in New York City, the prison there.
And now he's going to be president again, and now
the secret police style comedies are running scared, and they
probably should. There's going to be some questions asked within

(35:50):
the law and within the system of what exactly was
going on there.

Speaker 5 (35:53):
Well, and honestly we've said this before, but now that
he has won, I really believe I think the most
important decision Trump has to make as he decides on
his cabinet is attorney general. We need a bad ass
attorney general because the Department of Justice is a mess.
It's not honest it's not fairly impartial with justice. We

(36:18):
need somebody who can go in there with a sledgehammer
and clean that place up. And it needs to be
somebody super smart, super skilled, who knows the law and
will apply it fairly and impartially and clean up the
mess that Merrick Garland created there. Jack Smith being on
his way out as a good mood. Remember there's still
the Atlanta prosecution, the New York City prosecution, although I

(36:39):
bet they're a little bit nervous about that right now.
Fanny Willis and Alvin Bragg. We'll talk about that and more,
but up next, some of the data that stands out.
What do we learn from the voting patterns? Our buddy
Ryan Gardusky Next,
