If the socialists ever won and really did tax (the you know what) out of billionaires and millionaires, what would happen? We ask our economist, David Bahnsen??
Always revealing and often entertaining, it’s The Sounds of The Day!
The cost of diesel fuel is soaring as a result of the wars in Ukraine and Iran. Since everything from food to construction is supplied by diesel trucks, what will that mean for consumers and inflation? National Correspondent RORY O’NEILL will have the story.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hi, It's Michael. Your Morning show airs live five to
eight am Central, six to nine Eastern and great cities
like Memphis, Tennessee, Telsa, Oklahoma, Sacramento, California. We'd love to
be a part of your morning routine, but we're happier
here now. Enjoy the podcast two.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
Three, starting your morning off right. A new way of talk,
a new way of understanding because we're in this together.
This is Your Morning Show with Michael O'Dell Charman.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
A shocker yesterday. Caroline Levitt, White House Press Secretary, is
saying bye bye at the end of the month. Another
key inflation report due out today. A winning ticket in
Wednesday night's billion dollar lottery drawing was sold in Illinois.
I wasn't in Illinois, Jeff, Were you a ellan Ois?
I was in an Illinois? Brad? Were you in Illinois?
(00:52):
David Botson for you and Eleanois I don't think we won?
And six of our Your Morning Show Cities NFL teams
in preseason action to night, Good morning, and welcome to Thursday,
August the thirteenth, twenty twenty six, on the air, streaming
live on your iHeart app. This is your Morning Show
and I'm honored to serve you. I'm Michael del Jordan
of Jeffreys got the sound Red's keeping an eye on
the content, and we are blessed, literally that is the
(01:15):
word blessed to have. I think one of the finest
economists and economic minds. I first started seeing him on
Fox Business all the time and then came out with
a book. We interviewed him about the book, and I
just knew we were going to go through a long
period where we had to get beyond. And ignorance, by
the way, is not stupid. Ignorance just means you have
(01:38):
ignored you had other priorities or other areas of interest.
And that was always my case foreign policy. I'm very
well read, comparative religions, I'm very well read. I mean,
there's a lot of things. I'm very good at media
bias so on. I always had a blind spot from
the economic standpoint, and so I knew we would go
through a long journey where we would need a real
(01:58):
economist to explaining to us moment by moment what we're
going through. The narratives and the talking points that don't
really lead to the real cause, the real problem, the
real intent, the real failure and today's another one of
those days. So say healo to David Bonson. David, we
want to just start with And I know this is
going to be difficult because if you ask somebody really
(02:20):
smart about something something really stupid, it's one of the
hardest questions to answer. But you know, kind of like
a classroom with kids that just kind of need to
hear it. Try not to be dismissive when I ask you.
Let's just presume these socialists all did win, and they
did go on to text, you know what, as they
(02:42):
promise out of billionaires and millionaires, and what we really
know would happened tax is not out of everybody. What
would happen if that happened, Would it work? Would suddenly
we not have deficits? Would suddenly it'd be better that
there would be no withholding from our paycheck, that is,
our insurance funded by ourselves and our employer. There would
(03:02):
suddenly be all this money in the government to cover
free healthcare for everyone. I mean, at some point, don't
we need to explain to people that what they're pandering
itself is laughable.
Speaker 3 (03:16):
I mean, I guess the hard part with the question,
Michael is it's so hypothetical that it's hard to even
think what would have to happen to get to a
point like that where it would be politically feasible. And
my problem is, I mean, yes, there's a way to answer,
like how bad would it be if we did all
of these things that we just pretended all those things
(03:37):
were in place? But the problem with that is it's
something that I consider to be like a one percent
chance of happening, and then it misses the ninety percent
chance of happening, which is not wake up tomorrow with
full blown socialism, it's wake up tomorrow with incremental socialism. Right,
And so I'm a little more focused on the things
(04:00):
that are happening, that can happen, that do happen, bit
by bit by bit, versus the radicalism which our founding
fathers did a very good job of keeping from becoming
our own reality.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
All right, And let me give you the foreign policy analogy.
I am more concerned, believe it or not, with political
Islam than I am jihadist Islam that would attack obviously
for the people that would die, it's complete, but then
it would be responded to. Whereas the incremental and the
slow political fluctuation. That's a little bit more long term down.
(04:39):
The same thing with social because we're already somewhat of
a hybrid, right, I mean, it's already prepped in well.
Speaker 3 (04:48):
We are, we are, we have been. But here's the
great analogy. I like your islam one, by the way,
I think it works very well. But just in terms
of the broad cultural progressivism, do you think that if
in nineteen thirty or nineteen forty seven we said, hey,
tomorrow we want to have transvestites, we're reading to your
(05:08):
kids in the library, that everyone would be like, oh, okay,
let's do that. We're able to have just been It
would have just been like, this is absurd. It's never
ever going to happen. But an incremental, gradualistic, piece by
piece of a march through the institutions that allowed for
the arts in Hollywood and media, and more and more
(05:29):
of finance, and more and more of education, and by
the way, more and more of our churches the pulpits
being taken over by the left.
Speaker 4 (05:39):
These are the ways.
Speaker 3 (05:40):
That I think things get done culturally, and so socialism
as American phenomena is highly parasitic. I understand people think
AOC is popular but she's popular because she's attractive and
young and very talented. Intact, she got fourteen thousand votes
(06:02):
when she got elected in a country of three hundred
and thirty million people. Bernie Sanders is you know, charismatic
guy who is a high conviction sincere socialist.
Speaker 4 (06:15):
In a basically socialistic state.
Speaker 3 (06:17):
Of Vermont, you do not have Americans lining up to
vote for socialists. But what you do have is everybody
turning a blind eye to us taking ten percent ownership
of Intel. What you do have is everyone turning a
blind eye to new deal programs, to great society programs.
So the incremental, I guess march scares me more than
(06:43):
a French revolutionary takeover.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
So they usually start with medicine, socialized medicine, like they've
got a lot of success stories around the world. Vermont,
for example, did it and failed at the state level.
I mean, I don't know where they planned a go.
Do you think by going so far the way they
have that it could create a cultural backlash and set
(07:10):
them back, or do you think you can expect a
morest return to the more consistent, persistent, slow creep towards.
Speaker 3 (07:22):
That's a very important question, and it's not one that
I am confident in an answer to, because on one hand,
the going too far overplaying your hand is the mo
of the left, and it's one of the great reversals
of Wokism, where you had literally AOSC the other day saying,
oh yeah, well one point, Oho got pretty silly there
(07:43):
for a while, didn't it, Like everybody has had to backtrack.
I see it in corporate America on a daily basis.
I'm talking to CEOs and investor relations departments that are
all saying, thank god, we don't have a gun to
our head anymore, where we have to go fire an
employee who said nothing wrong, and this, that and the other.
That's how crazy things were five or six years. Well,
(08:04):
the whole culture did not get christianized. The whole culture
did not get normalized. It's just that they went too
far and the pendulum swung. So you're asking, could that
happen in this case too? And on one hand, I
want to go, yeah, that's the optimistic read Mondani overdes
grocery stores, and then everyone starts reading Milton Friedman again.
Speaker 4 (08:23):
I like that idea. I think it's possible. I think
it's possible.
Speaker 3 (08:26):
But as you know, where I'm gonna end up going
here because I do it every week. My concern, my
concern is that there's too many on the right that
are not saying, look at this extreme socialism communism, it's
how can we do our own socialism?
Speaker 5 (08:42):
Right?
Speaker 4 (08:42):
That's my problem.
Speaker 3 (08:43):
That's my concern is populism and horseshoe theory basically say,
let's do a non woke, pro life version of socialism,
and it's systemic in the right right now, and it's.
Speaker 1 (08:59):
A big yeah. It's kind of like, well, it's very revealing.
Power is their passion not principle, and so it trips
them up. David Bonsen, a great economist, also comes out
with the dividend Cafe will preview that momentarily every Friday.
Bottom line is you could text it's not out of
billionaires and guess what, they're still billionaires and they can
(09:19):
take their money and go home and take all their
jobs with them. How much of this is sin and
spiritual in that I really believe it's all based on
a spirit of envy and envy and its relationship to Lucifer.
You know, it's not just I mean, there's no degrees
(09:40):
of sin. All sin separates us from God. But this
is one of the deadly sins, and that's what this
is all based on. I think that's been revealed now.
There hasn't been a good argument from the right. I
don't think most talk show hosts get it because they
don't have that lens. I don't think the right and
even the Republican Party gets it and knows how to
argue it. Like in Seattle, in the state of Washington,
(10:02):
when they raised the minimum wage to fifteen dollars, I mean,
what a disaster. It proved the minimum wage is an
entry level and you just removed the entry and nobody
wanted that money. It was never intended to raise a
family afore, and at the end of the day, they
just rejected it and worked half the hours in some cases,
and so they eventually got replaced by technology in Kiosk.
But nobody ever brings up these examples. It's like if
(10:26):
you were principled, even who's the principled spokesperson. So, but
this is a deadly sin. This is enviy is what
this is all based on, and that's why it always
tends to deceive and distort and have some level of
acceptance generationally.
Speaker 3 (10:42):
Well, there's a sort of meme that goes around about Marxism,
how many European elites, how many American professors say communism
didn't fail, it's just never been tried, and it's a joke,
it's absurd. But this is what many are doing right
now with socialism, is saying, well, it just needs to
(11:04):
be done better, and it's the fatal conceit of the technocrats.
Envy is the ultimate sin of cotous wanting to take
what belongs to others. But there's also a coveteousness of
power where you say, yeah, they screwed up that socialistic thing.
Mamdani doesn't know how to run a grocery store, but
(11:26):
I know how to dictate who we should trade with.
I know how what rates we should set, what regulation
we should set, what industries we should favor. I know
how AI ought to go right. So there's the envy
of power that underlies a lot of this as well,
and it is always and forever a spiritual and moral issue.
Speaker 4 (11:49):
But one of the things I think.
Speaker 3 (11:50):
We have to do a better job of is making
clear in economic education to six year olds, to sixteen
year olds and to twenty two year olds what the
flaws of this are.
Speaker 4 (12:02):
So there's a moral argument.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
We have to.
Speaker 3 (12:04):
Educate us to the dignity of the human person, the
freedom and agency God made mankind with, and some of
these elements that are core to how we educate youngsters
about economics. But then there is also I think that
when you talk about taxing billionaires wealth inequality. You know,
I love to just say to people, let's take eight
(12:25):
billion people, let's divide all of the capital stock in
the world, every dollar, every real estate, every stock, every business.
Let's divide it up equally. Everybody now owns one eight
billion as the denominator of the wealth of the world.
How long does it take so there's inequality? Is it
(12:46):
five seconds? Five minutes? Because God made us different, different preferences,
different initiatives, different skills, and yes, different moral compasses too.
Some are going to be softful, someonere gonna be lazy.
Inequality is not something that can be avoided under any
(13:07):
circumstances with the moral and gravitational poll of the world.
But I think once young people understand that we stop
putting our focus on something that can't be done and
then start putting our focus on that which should be done,
which is everybody having the freedom to go create the
right life for themselves and their families. And I have
(13:30):
been the biggest critic since two thousand and eight. It's
what I've devoted my adult life to. It's what I
will devote however many more decades. God gives me to
making the case that we who defend free enterprise don't
deserve to preserve it if we don't do it, if
we don't do it on a moral basis.
Speaker 1 (13:48):
So it's not so much how they've gotten crazy left
as much as how the right has silently got away
with doing much of the same. We've got to get
back to moral absolute and certain and principle, and then
how much of this is what is or what is
not even considered self evident truth anymore? That's adding to
this chaos. And I will come back to MV and
(14:10):
say it is different than jealousy. Envy believes you have
something that belongs to them, and if they can't have it,
you can't eat have it either. It is destructive in intent,
which is very alarming, But the creep towards that destruction
is still cancer and it will eventually lead to death. Yeah.
So I mean the long and the short is we
(14:31):
hope that there'll be a awakening out of this. But
as much as both sides are enjoying using it as
a weapon, not a certainty by any stretch.
Speaker 4 (14:42):
Yeah, that's right.
Speaker 3 (14:43):
And the ways you kind of navigate through the various
things that come up week by week in the news,
it is with first principles. So when you have a
briefcase filled with principles, and you bring your briefcase everywhere
you go, then when minimum wage subject comes up, it
can be a little controversial. What what fifteen year old? If
you said, Hey, there's a single mother woman in Louisiana
(15:07):
who needs to feed her family. Should we have a
government law that forces Walmart to pay her twenty four
dollars an hour. I would have no problem with a
fifteen year old at the very first asking of the
questions saying.
Speaker 4 (15:19):
Yes, that sounds like a good idea.
Speaker 3 (15:21):
But then upon any scrutiny understanding why it's a bad idea. Right,
we want to do the critical thinking out of the principles.
Speaker 1 (15:29):
Oh, don't bring up but don't even bring up chical.
Speaker 3 (15:33):
You can't expect a fifteen year old to get to
the right conclusion if you haven't given them the principles
to put in the briefcase what's go.
Speaker 1 (15:41):
We got like ten seconds. What's coming up tomorrow?
Speaker 3 (15:43):
On the Dividend Cafe, I'm writing a letter to my
daughter as she goes to college next week.
Speaker 4 (15:48):
I got to drop her off at college.
Speaker 3 (15:50):
She's starting university as a pre med student at the
University of Virginia, and I'm writing a letter to her
as she gets ready to go to prepare her for
all the things I want her to know going away
to school.
Speaker 4 (16:01):
And I'm gonna share it with Dividing Cafe readers.
Speaker 1 (16:04):
I love it. I don't you know. Just the notion
of it's making me want to cry. I've been there.
Is this your first child to go to college? No,
my oldest son has already gone off.
Speaker 4 (16:12):
Okay, no, he's a boy.
Speaker 1 (16:13):
But no, but yeah, no. But the last one hurts
the most, and I don't know what it is. It
marks the end of an era. You're gonna be very
sad for a couple of months.
Speaker 6 (16:24):
And then you're gonna love being an empty dster to
the point where you feel guilty about I.
Speaker 1 (16:29):
Can't wait to read the letter. Dividencafe dot com as
always a treasured brother, A brilliant mind. David Bonsen, thank
you all right, We're gonna be late if I don't stop.
When it comes to supplements, two things matter most. Do
they work? Can you trust it? Really Factor works and
you can trust it, And don't just take my word
for it. Chris spent years doing physical work, leaving his
feet sore. At the end of every day starts really Factor.
(16:50):
Not only was he feeling better and his feet weren't
sore and hurting, he did something he never even thought
he'd do. He ran a half marathon. Now he tells
all his friends about relief. That's really Factor gets to
the root cause the inflammation. When you live painfree, you're
living your best life again, and you want to share
that with everyone else. You know what Relief Factor story.
I can't wait to hear yours. And because of America's
(17:13):
two hundred and fifty, we have patriotic pricing of seventeen
seventy six. This is crazy affordable. A three week quick
start supply of Relief Factor just seventeen seventy six. To
begin your Relief Factor story, order today at relieffactor dot com,

Your Morning Show is My Morning Show with Pizza Boy
Michael del Giorno.
Speaker 1 (17:53):
Hi, It's Michael. Your Morning Show can be heard live
weekday mornings five to eight am, six to nine am
Eastern great cities like Tampa, Florida, Youngstown, Ohio, and Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.
We'd love to join you on the drive to work live.
But we're glad you're here now. Enjoyed the podcast. That's
how That's how narratives die. They die of reality. That's
(18:14):
how lies die. They die of truth. But I think
it's already too late for them. But if you want
to get to the real sore spot, it's really Sophie
Cunningham more than Caitlin Clark. How does she have a
shoe deal? How welcome are popular heterosexual not of color
(18:43):
players in this league? How welcome are they? Because that's
what put them on the map, and they really hate that.
And it's extra sore because they're seeing wokeness. I mean again,
they create the validation and good feeling in their conflicted
(19:05):
minds and hearts when they stay in their small groups
at the end of the day, even though they're fifty
to seventy percent of the characters you see in television shows,
only one percent of America is homosexual male. If you
add in lesbians, it gets a two points something. If
(19:25):
you add in transgender three percent. Tops hasn't changed, just
the exposure has. And for basketball fans, they just wanted
to see really good basketball, which is a shame because
you're I watch only the Fever, but it's really good basketball,
and The Fever especially is a really great chemistry and
(19:47):
team story which does what exposes and shines light on
the bigger cancers and flaws of the league in a sense,
to use the analogy we always use. Unfortunately, Sophie and Caitlin,
(20:10):
they're the parasite trying to take over the host. I
don't think it's going to win. They will try, and
they've already exasperated most of us. Okay, this is too much,
and they'll go back to being their private little LGBTQ
(20:33):
woke inclusive club. That's their words, not mine, with nobody watching,
nobody in the stand. Subsidized by the NBA it's really
a shame though, it really is, and it's very revealing
of how toxic that small number is. I mean, that's
why I said, and I guess this is kind of
(20:54):
quasi starting sound the day, which we kind of did. Anyway,
That's what made the coaches grant so important.
Speaker 6 (21:05):
Kindness will win, Love will win. The rest of you
can go to hell.
Speaker 1 (21:16):
Now. Maybe in their little circles that's love, that's kindness.
But love is patient, love is kind. I guess it
depends on who's defining what love is. But even the
average person sees a lot of anger. But they got
(21:38):
more than a fever coach problem. They got a league problem,
all right. We talked extensively yesterday about the takeaway from
Wisconsin was how wrong the polls were. How could you
have a candidate leading right up to the election by
twenty to twenty two points end up losing. There's something
(21:59):
wrong with the numbers, Harriet and got to the bottom
of that. Listen, yeah, how much?
Speaker 8 (22:04):
I mean, my god, can we catch a break here?
Look at this polls over state lefties and DEM primaries.
You know last week it was ten points. You'd think
ten points is a lot. How about twenty points in Wisconsin. Now,
I will note that in this case, Wisconsin had some
late candidates, switches, candidates coming out, candidates.
Speaker 1 (22:23):
Leaving the race.
Speaker 8 (22:24):
And you know, I was suspect after what happened in
Michigan that the polling that showed Francesca hung up by
about twenty points was actually going to come to fruition.
Speaker 1 (22:33):
But it did happen.
Speaker 8 (22:34):
Again, the polls overstated the lefties in Wisconsin, just like
they did in another great Lake battleground state of Michigan.
Speaker 5 (22:41):
Okay, what are some of the possible reasons why these
polls are ultimately overstating the support that they get an
election debn Yeah, if this were just about, you.
Speaker 8 (22:50):
Know, the fact that the polls overestimate the two lefties,
that would be one thing. But I think that this
may speak to something bigger, which is the polling may
be having too many of those young progressives.
Speaker 1 (23:01):
And what am I talking about? Well, just take a
look here.
Speaker 8 (23:04):
Who won the five counties with the most under the
age of forty, that is eighteen to thirty nine. In
the Michigan Senate it was Abdulas said he one to five.
How about a Wisconsin governor the exact same thing in
the youngest counties, that is where these lefties.
Speaker 1 (23:17):
Did the best.
Speaker 8 (23:19):
And so when you kind of look at the polling,
you go, hey, wait a minute, maybe these polls had
too many younger folks in them. And I think that
speaks to something larger, potentially, which is all these pollings
which is showing progressivism on the left, the far left rising,
seeing democratic socialism, especially in the case of Wisconsin rising.
You gotta look at these results and say, hey, wait
a minute, maybe, Johnny, maybe these polls are overestimating how
(23:43):
much that democratic socialism is rising within the Democratic Party,
because in two key statewide races in a row, what
we've seen is the lefties being vastly overestimated, and in
the case of Wisconsin, the Democratic Socialists being vastly overestimated
by twenty points.
Speaker 5 (23:59):
Seelver sample among young people. One of the things that
can happen as young people don't vote as much. Yeah,
and then you can skew the ultimate results.
Speaker 8 (24:04):
There correct, And I think that means so much as
we're looking at these polls and what the actual implications
are in terms of how big the left rise is.
Speaker 5 (24:11):
And the other thing that may have happened in Wisconsin,
especially in Wisconsin, is that people who hadn't decided may
have decided late, or they may have changed their minds
because a lot of the things that people were talking
about just in the last few weeks with Francesca Hong
may not have helped her, like say, her past positions
not digging Thanksgiving.
Speaker 8 (24:28):
Yeah, folks, if you're going to run for political office
in this country, dare I say you should be pro
Thanksgiving from the beginning of the campaign to the end
of the campaign. Enough of the anti Thanksgiving stuff. And
why do I say that, because just look at this,
Americans who think are say that they don't celebrate Thanksgiving.
Speaker 1 (24:46):
It's just eight percent. It's just a right above the
Earth is flat and moon landing was faked. Problems worse
than that, by the way, low turnout change March and
of error. There's sampling issues, and if you're over sampling
young people, you're gonna get a wrong predictive polling model.
(25:09):
Frank Lunz interestingly arrives with this conclusion, we need to
shut down all primary polling until we can figure out
how to get this right listening.
Speaker 7 (25:20):
And I don't think you should be able to delete
stuff like this, and I want to start this interview
by acknowledging a mistake that I made that I never
did again. Back in twenty sixteen, I believe that Hillary
Clinton was going to win based on the Eggsit polling.
Speaker 1 (25:34):
Of all the networks, they all were.
Speaker 4 (25:36):
In the same pool, the same result.
Speaker 1 (25:38):
We did a great segment on this in the Platinum Hour,
so if you're listening to the podcast later, make sure
you listen in the first hour. It's just the opposite
that one's on Frank Lunz being a dunce. I didn't.
It was based on everything leading up to election day
that I thought things leaned Hillary Clinton's way, not a landslide,
(25:59):
but leaned her way. It was until the exit polling
came out at about three pm Central that I looked
at my wife and said, take a shower and get dressed.
We're in this. Before I left for election coverage, I
think he misread the exit The exit polling is what
made me think Trump was in it.
Speaker 7 (26:16):
They all had Hillary's Lynton winning, and so I put
out a prediction that said, what makes you not understand
the words President Hillary Clinton? I got it wrong because
I believe those numbers, and I fixed it, and what
we have now are posters on both sides, Democrats and
Republicans not acknowledging how wrong they are, how they cannot
(26:38):
make these projections. How when you get turnouts of fifteen
percent of electorate, you can't.
Speaker 4 (26:44):
Make a conclusion or projection. And posters need to stop
doing this.
Speaker 1 (26:49):
Well, I think these candidates. Look, we've known the legacy
mainStreet media's been in the back pocket of the Democrat Party.
It's now been outed journalism is dead added with the
technology shifts irrelevant and decomposing. But there is a lot
of social media and what's left of cable media that's
(27:13):
on the side of these socialists, and they play them up.
It's the grand illusion that the LGBTQ has been using,
and it's enough that they're in every sitcom, every drama,
every I mean, you can't go anywhere. They're doing it
on purpose. They're trying to shape the vote. The problem
(27:34):
is what they believe in. How many Americans really rejected
Even Chris Matthews addressed some of that on The Morning Show.
Speaker 9 (27:40):
All these positions can be denied by any regular Democrat.
All you have to do is go out there to
say thank you. DSA for telling us what you believe in.
I don't believe in that stuff, and discriminate because you
can't follow AOC.
Speaker 1 (27:53):
I like IOC generally.
Speaker 9 (27:55):
But she came out and said, we're just a big
tent party with a problem with the big tent defenses.
Every Democrat has to defend all this crap coming from
the left. They've got to say I believe in all
this crazy stuff and that makes me a Democrat. You've
got to say no, no, I'm not a member of
the DSA, and here's why, and.
Speaker 1 (28:10):
Make it very clear.
Speaker 9 (28:11):
So it's going to require politicians to be good politicians.
Speaker 1 (28:14):
And say here's where I stand right, this is what
I'm a regular Democrat.
Speaker 9 (28:18):
I'm for labor unions, I'm for opportunity for everybody.
Speaker 1 (28:21):
I'm for civil rights. I'm from what Matthews gets to.
That I think is the most important and the biggest
shift Harrietton missed in between L Sayed and Wisconsin, or
just shortly before L Sayed, But he had enough of
the craziness in and around Dearborn to carry him and
make it close. Was the DSA coming out with their platform.
(28:45):
I think their platform killed killed their momentum. Axios did
a story saying the socialist fever has broken. Well it broke.
It was what Chris Matthews is pointing to, this crazy platform.
No police that's nuts, No military that's nuts. No prisons
(29:05):
that's notts. No borders that's nuts. And the tent hees
referring to is what we always talk about. They were
oh too willing to allow Bernie and the Socialists in
in their obsession of defeating the ours. And then the socialists,
so obsessed with defeating the progressive and establishment Democrats, allowed
(29:27):
the Islamists in. Now the Islamists want to take them
all out. But this becomes an impossible tent. I predicted
that you would see this socialism cause either the death
(29:47):
of its own movement or the death of the Democratic
Party in this midterm cycle. And then it'll be very
revealing if the Republican Party can survive trump Ism post
Donald Trump, if they try to absorb it like they
did the Tea Party, it'll be a disaster. And all
the Tea Party wanted was debt to be focused on.
(30:10):
All Donald Trump has ever done was what was in
the Republican Party platform. He just didn't talk about it,
not do it. He talked about it and did it.
That's why you can't absorb it. It's actually authentic conservativism
and it will not be absorbed. And if they try
to create a war, they'll divide into at least two parties.
(30:31):
The Democrats are probably gonna divide into four, maybe five parties.
And by the way, the thought of the two party
system dying, I'm not opposed to. I only have one minute.
I guess I'll do Hassan Piker. Most of this I
can't play for you because it's riddled with foul language,
but there is ten seconds he doesn't swear, and it's
(30:51):
very revealing. They're gonna keep doing it. By the way,
they're gonna call us terrorists, they're gonna call us anti semis,
they're gonna call us idealists, and eventually we're gonna win.
They're not going away, and they're not gonna stop trying,
and they're not gonna, you know, stop having the media
(31:11):
in their back pocket. Funny, everything we talked about with
the polling yesterday, it certainly all came true the rest
of the day. Our instincts were right on. This is
bad sampling, weighted sampling, this is polling designed to create
an outcome, not tell you what the outcome will be.
(31:33):
And with these low turnouts, they're absolutely worthless.
Speaker 4 (31:37):
And you're a fresh person.
Speaker 1 (31:39):
I think that side this.
Speaker 3 (31:41):
Is used to call Joe Biden a mentally retarded person.
Speaker 4 (31:44):
Okay, democracy, and let's tale called me king. Now do
you believe no, King, I'm such a king. I can't
get a bull river.
Speaker 1 (31:52):
And that's your Sounds of the Day for Thursday, August
the thirteenth. Everybody's talking about waste weight loss injections because
they work. They by lowering your blood sugar, reducing your appetite,
calorie deficit leads to weight loss. But what if you're
wanting to lose weight, You're not interested in painful weekly injections,
especially when you hear of so many intense side effects.
And then, of course the ultimate question, what do you
do when you stop? Well, that's where the doctors at
(32:15):
brick House Nutrition come in. They created lean and all natural.
It's a supplement with studied ingredients shown to lower your
blood sugar sound familiar burn fat by converting its energy,
curve your appetite and craving, so you eat less calorie deficit,
you're not as hungry and you lose weight. But it's
not for somebody trying to lose a pound or two
(32:36):
real quick before waiting. This is for frustrated dietors trying
to lose ten or more pounds, or maybe you've lost
thirty and the next twenty are not wanting to come off.

Speaker 2 (33:12):
It's your Morning Show with Michael Delchno.
Speaker 1 (33:17):
The Pittsburg Stealers in Action Tonight, the Lions, the Chargers,
the Cardinals, the Titan Six, Your morning show, Cities pre
season football action, NFL Football Tonight. A winning lottery ticket
has been purchased in Illinois. Somebody's at billionaire. It's not me.
I wasn't in Illinois last night. Another key inflation reporter
is due out today and the cost of diesel fuel
(33:38):
is soaring. It as a result of the wars, and
it's going to affect everything from food to construction, everything
that comes by way of diesel trucks. Roy O'Neil our
national correspondence here with how it affects us the consumers
and that inflation rate.
Speaker 10 (33:50):
Good morning, Rory, and good morning. I'd say it's the
result of the wars. Whorl Yes, what happened to Iran,
but also Ukraine getting much more effective at launching long
range strikes on Russia's refining capacity. Russia was the big
dog and making diesel, and a lot of that production
capacity has been taken offline as a result of drone
(34:10):
strikes by Ukraine, and diesel fuel gets into everything. It's
making fertilizer farmers needed for the tractors of course, trucks
needed to bring products to market. That's why we saw
that nine percent inflation when diesel reached a record back
in twenty twenty two. Fears we may be on that
track again with diesel now back over five point fifty
gallon on average.
Speaker 1 (34:31):
And that's important because these financial reports are showing inflation
kind of petering out and steady, but headed nowhere near
a raid cut. And we're going to have to try
to dodge a rate increase. Diesel could push us towards
a rate increase. Great reporting is always rory. One chance
to live today. Go make a difference in someone's life,
Cherish Jerome. We'll see it tomorrow on the next Your
Morning Show. We're all in this together. This is Your
(34:52):
Morning Show with Michael Ndheld, Joano
Hi, It's Michael. Your Morning show airs live five to
eight am Central, six to nine Eastern and great cities
like Memphis, Tennessee, Telsa, Oklahoma, Sacramento, California. We'd love to
be a part of your morning routine, but we're happier
here now. Enjoy the podcast two.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
Three, starting your morning off right. A new way of talk,
a new way of understanding because we're in this together.
This is Your Morning Show with Michael O'Dell Charman.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
A shocker yesterday. Caroline Levitt, White House Press Secretary, is
saying bye bye at the end of the month. Another
key inflation report due out today. A winning ticket in
Wednesday night's billion dollar lottery drawing was sold in Illinois.
I wasn't in Illinois, Jeff, Were you a ellan Ois?
I was in an Illinois? Brad? Were you in Illinois?
(00:52):
David Botson for you and Eleanois I don't think we won?
And six of our Your Morning Show Cities NFL teams
in preseason action to night, Good morning, and welcome to Thursday,
August the thirteenth, twenty twenty six, on the air, streaming
live on your iHeart app. This is your Morning Show
and I'm honored to serve you. I'm Michael del Jordan
of Jeffreys got the sound Red's keeping an eye on
the content, and we are blessed, literally that is the
(01:15):
word blessed to have. I think one of the finest
economists and economic minds. I first started seeing him on
Fox Business all the time and then came out with
a book. We interviewed him about the book, and I
just knew we were going to go through a long
period where we had to get beyond. And ignorance, by
the way, is not stupid. Ignorance just means you have
(01:38):
ignored you had other priorities or other areas of interest.
And that was always my case foreign policy. I'm very
well read, comparative religions, I'm very well read. I mean,
there's a lot of things. I'm very good at media
bias so on. I always had a blind spot from
the economic standpoint, and so I knew we would go
through a long journey where we would need a real
(01:58):
economist to explaining to us moment by moment what we're
going through. The narratives and the talking points that don't
really lead to the real cause, the real problem, the
real intent, the real failure and today's another one of
those days. So say healo to David Bonson. David, we
want to just start with And I know this is
going to be difficult because if you ask somebody really
(02:20):
smart about something something really stupid, it's one of the
hardest questions to answer. But you know, kind of like
a classroom with kids that just kind of need to
hear it. Try not to be dismissive when I ask you.
Let's just presume these socialists all did win, and they
did go on to text, you know what, as they
(02:42):
promise out of billionaires and millionaires, and what we really
know would happened tax is not out of everybody. What
would happen if that happened, Would it work? Would suddenly
we not have deficits? Would suddenly it'd be better that
there would be no withholding from our paycheck, that is,
our insurance funded by ourselves and our employer. There would
(03:02):
suddenly be all this money in the government to cover
free healthcare for everyone. I mean, at some point, don't
we need to explain to people that what they're pandering
itself is laughable.
Speaker 3 (03:16):
I mean, I guess the hard part with the question,
Michael is it's so hypothetical that it's hard to even
think what would have to happen to get to a
point like that where it would be politically feasible. And
my problem is, I mean, yes, there's a way to answer,
like how bad would it be if we did all
of these things that we just pretended all those things
(03:37):
were in place? But the problem with that is it's
something that I consider to be like a one percent
chance of happening, and then it misses the ninety percent
chance of happening, which is not wake up tomorrow with
full blown socialism, it's wake up tomorrow with incremental socialism. Right,
And so I'm a little more focused on the things
(04:00):
that are happening, that can happen, that do happen, bit
by bit by bit, versus the radicalism which our founding
fathers did a very good job of keeping from becoming
our own reality.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
All right, And let me give you the foreign policy analogy.
I am more concerned, believe it or not, with political
Islam than I am jihadist Islam that would attack obviously
for the people that would die, it's complete, but then
it would be responded to. Whereas the incremental and the
slow political fluctuation. That's a little bit more long term down.
(04:39):
The same thing with social because we're already somewhat of
a hybrid, right, I mean, it's already prepped in well.
Speaker 3 (04:48):
We are, we are, we have been. But here's the
great analogy. I like your islam one, by the way,
I think it works very well. But just in terms
of the broad cultural progressivism, do you think that if
in nineteen thirty or nineteen forty seven we said, hey,
tomorrow we want to have transvestites, we're reading to your
(05:08):
kids in the library, that everyone would be like, oh, okay,
let's do that. We're able to have just been It
would have just been like, this is absurd. It's never
ever going to happen. But an incremental, gradualistic, piece by
piece of a march through the institutions that allowed for
the arts in Hollywood and media, and more and more
(05:29):
of finance, and more and more of education, and by
the way, more and more of our churches the pulpits
being taken over by the left.
Speaker 4 (05:39):
These are the ways.
Speaker 3 (05:40):
That I think things get done culturally, and so socialism
as American phenomena is highly parasitic. I understand people think
AOC is popular but she's popular because she's attractive and
young and very talented. Intact, she got fourteen thousand votes
(06:02):
when she got elected in a country of three hundred
and thirty million people. Bernie Sanders is you know, charismatic
guy who is a high conviction sincere socialist.
Speaker 4 (06:15):
In a basically socialistic state.
Speaker 3 (06:17):
Of Vermont, you do not have Americans lining up to
vote for socialists. But what you do have is everybody
turning a blind eye to us taking ten percent ownership
of Intel. What you do have is everyone turning a
blind eye to new deal programs, to great society programs.
So the incremental, I guess march scares me more than
(06:43):
a French revolutionary takeover.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
So they usually start with medicine, socialized medicine, like they've
got a lot of success stories around the world. Vermont,
for example, did it and failed at the state level.
I mean, I don't know where they planned a go.
Do you think by going so far the way they
have that it could create a cultural backlash and set
(07:10):
them back, or do you think you can expect a
morest return to the more consistent, persistent, slow creep towards.
Speaker 3 (07:22):
That's a very important question, and it's not one that
I am confident in an answer to, because on one hand,
the going too far overplaying your hand is the mo
of the left, and it's one of the great reversals
of Wokism, where you had literally AOSC the other day saying,
oh yeah, well one point, Oho got pretty silly there
(07:43):
for a while, didn't it, Like everybody has had to backtrack.
I see it in corporate America on a daily basis.
I'm talking to CEOs and investor relations departments that are
all saying, thank god, we don't have a gun to
our head anymore, where we have to go fire an
employee who said nothing wrong, and this, that and the other.
That's how crazy things were five or six years. Well,
(08:04):
the whole culture did not get christianized. The whole culture
did not get normalized. It's just that they went too
far and the pendulum swung. So you're asking, could that
happen in this case too? And on one hand, I
want to go, yeah, that's the optimistic read Mondani overdes
grocery stores, and then everyone starts reading Milton Friedman again.
Speaker 4 (08:23):
I like that idea. I think it's possible. I think
it's possible.
Speaker 3 (08:26):
But as you know, where I'm gonna end up going
here because I do it every week. My concern, my
concern is that there's too many on the right that
are not saying, look at this extreme socialism communism, it's
how can we do our own socialism?
Speaker 5 (08:42):
Right?
Speaker 4 (08:42):
That's my problem.
Speaker 3 (08:43):
That's my concern is populism and horseshoe theory basically say,
let's do a non woke, pro life version of socialism,
and it's systemic in the right right now, and it's.
Speaker 1 (08:59):
A big yeah. It's kind of like, well, it's very revealing.
Power is their passion not principle, and so it trips
them up. David Bonsen, a great economist, also comes out
with the dividend Cafe will preview that momentarily every Friday.
Bottom line is you could text it's not out of
billionaires and guess what, they're still billionaires and they can
(09:19):
take their money and go home and take all their
jobs with them. How much of this is sin and
spiritual in that I really believe it's all based on
a spirit of envy and envy and its relationship to Lucifer.
You know, it's not just I mean, there's no degrees
(09:40):
of sin. All sin separates us from God. But this
is one of the deadly sins, and that's what this
is all based on. I think that's been revealed now.
There hasn't been a good argument from the right. I
don't think most talk show hosts get it because they
don't have that lens. I don't think the right and
even the Republican Party gets it and knows how to
argue it. Like in Seattle, in the state of Washington,
(10:02):
when they raised the minimum wage to fifteen dollars, I mean,
what a disaster. It proved the minimum wage is an
entry level and you just removed the entry and nobody
wanted that money. It was never intended to raise a
family afore, and at the end of the day, they
just rejected it and worked half the hours in some cases,
and so they eventually got replaced by technology in Kiosk.
But nobody ever brings up these examples. It's like if
(10:26):
you were principled, even who's the principled spokesperson. So, but
this is a deadly sin. This is enviy is what
this is all based on, and that's why it always
tends to deceive and distort and have some level of
acceptance generationally.
Speaker 3 (10:42):
Well, there's a sort of meme that goes around about Marxism,
how many European elites, how many American professors say communism
didn't fail, it's just never been tried, and it's a joke,
it's absurd. But this is what many are doing right
now with socialism, is saying, well, it just needs to
(11:04):
be done better, and it's the fatal conceit of the technocrats.
Envy is the ultimate sin of cotous wanting to take
what belongs to others. But there's also a coveteousness of
power where you say, yeah, they screwed up that socialistic thing.
Mamdani doesn't know how to run a grocery store, but
(11:26):
I know how to dictate who we should trade with.
I know how what rates we should set, what regulation
we should set, what industries we should favor. I know
how AI ought to go right. So there's the envy
of power that underlies a lot of this as well,
and it is always and forever a spiritual and moral issue.
Speaker 4 (11:49):
But one of the things I think.
Speaker 3 (11:50):
We have to do a better job of is making
clear in economic education to six year olds, to sixteen
year olds and to twenty two year olds what the
flaws of this are.
Speaker 4 (12:02):
So there's a moral argument.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
We have to.
Speaker 3 (12:04):
Educate us to the dignity of the human person, the
freedom and agency God made mankind with, and some of
these elements that are core to how we educate youngsters
about economics. But then there is also I think that
when you talk about taxing billionaires wealth inequality. You know,
I love to just say to people, let's take eight
(12:25):
billion people, let's divide all of the capital stock in
the world, every dollar, every real estate, every stock, every business.
Let's divide it up equally. Everybody now owns one eight
billion as the denominator of the wealth of the world.
How long does it take so there's inequality? Is it
(12:46):
five seconds? Five minutes? Because God made us different, different preferences,
different initiatives, different skills, and yes, different moral compasses too.
Some are going to be softful, someonere gonna be lazy.
Inequality is not something that can be avoided under any
(13:07):
circumstances with the moral and gravitational poll of the world.
But I think once young people understand that we stop
putting our focus on something that can't be done and
then start putting our focus on that which should be done,
which is everybody having the freedom to go create the
right life for themselves and their families. And I have
(13:30):
been the biggest critic since two thousand and eight. It's
what I've devoted my adult life to. It's what I
will devote however many more decades. God gives me to
making the case that we who defend free enterprise don't
deserve to preserve it if we don't do it, if
we don't do it on a moral basis.
Speaker 1 (13:48):
So it's not so much how they've gotten crazy left
as much as how the right has silently got away
with doing much of the same. We've got to get
back to moral absolute and certain and principle, and then
how much of this is what is or what is
not even considered self evident truth anymore? That's adding to
this chaos. And I will come back to MV and
(14:10):
say it is different than jealousy. Envy believes you have
something that belongs to them, and if they can't have it,
you can't eat have it either. It is destructive in intent,
which is very alarming, But the creep towards that destruction
is still cancer and it will eventually lead to death. Yeah.
So I mean the long and the short is we
(14:31):
hope that there'll be a awakening out of this. But
as much as both sides are enjoying using it as
a weapon, not a certainty by any stretch.
Speaker 4 (14:42):
Yeah, that's right.
Speaker 3 (14:43):
And the ways you kind of navigate through the various
things that come up week by week in the news,
it is with first principles. So when you have a
briefcase filled with principles, and you bring your briefcase everywhere
you go, then when minimum wage subject comes up, it
can be a little controversial. What what fifteen year old? If
you said, Hey, there's a single mother woman in Louisiana
(15:07):
who needs to feed her family. Should we have a
government law that forces Walmart to pay her twenty four
dollars an hour. I would have no problem with a
fifteen year old at the very first asking of the
questions saying.
Speaker 4 (15:19):
Yes, that sounds like a good idea.
Speaker 3 (15:21):
But then upon any scrutiny understanding why it's a bad idea. Right,
we want to do the critical thinking out of the principles.
Speaker 1 (15:29):
Oh, don't bring up but don't even bring up chical.
Speaker 3 (15:33):
You can't expect a fifteen year old to get to
the right conclusion if you haven't given them the principles
to put in the briefcase what's go.
Speaker 1 (15:41):
We got like ten seconds. What's coming up tomorrow?
Speaker 3 (15:43):
On the Dividend Cafe, I'm writing a letter to my
daughter as she goes to college next week.
Speaker 4 (15:48):
I got to drop her off at college.
Speaker 3 (15:50):
She's starting university as a pre med student at the
University of Virginia, and I'm writing a letter to her
as she gets ready to go to prepare her for
all the things I want her to know going away
to school.
Speaker 4 (16:01):
And I'm gonna share it with Dividing Cafe readers.
Speaker 1 (16:04):
I love it. I don't you know. Just the notion
of it's making me want to cry. I've been there.
Is this your first child to go to college? No,
my oldest son has already gone off.
Speaker 4 (16:12):
Okay, no, he's a boy.
Speaker 1 (16:13):
But no, but yeah, no. But the last one hurts
the most, and I don't know what it is. It
marks the end of an era. You're gonna be very
sad for a couple of months.
Speaker 6 (16:24):
And then you're gonna love being an empty dster to
the point where you feel guilty about I.
Speaker 1 (16:29):
Can't wait to read the letter. Dividencafe dot com as
always a treasured brother, A brilliant mind. David Bonsen, thank
you all right, We're gonna be late if I don't stop.
When it comes to supplements, two things matter most. Do
they work? Can you trust it? Really Factor works and
you can trust it, And don't just take my word
for it. Chris spent years doing physical work, leaving his
feet sore. At the end of every day starts really Factor.
(16:50):
Not only was he feeling better and his feet weren't
sore and hurting, he did something he never even thought
he'd do. He ran a half marathon. Now he tells
all his friends about relief. That's really Factor gets to
the root cause the inflammation. When you live painfree, you're
living your best life again, and you want to share
that with everyone else. You know what Relief Factor story.
I can't wait to hear yours. And because of America's
(17:13):
two hundred and fifty, we have patriotic pricing of seventeen
seventy six. This is crazy affordable. A three week quick
start supply of Relief Factor just seventeen seventy six. To
begin your Relief Factor story, order today at relieffactor dot com,

Your Morning Show is My Morning Show with Pizza Boy
Michael del Giorno.
Speaker 1 (17:53):
Hi, It's Michael. Your Morning Show can be heard live
weekday mornings five to eight am, six to nine am
Eastern great cities like Tampa, Florida, Youngstown, Ohio, and Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.
We'd love to join you on the drive to work live.
But we're glad you're here now. Enjoyed the podcast. That's
how That's how narratives die. They die of reality. That's
(18:14):
how lies die. They die of truth. But I think
it's already too late for them. But if you want
to get to the real sore spot, it's really Sophie
Cunningham more than Caitlin Clark. How does she have a
shoe deal? How welcome are popular heterosexual not of color
(18:43):
players in this league? How welcome are they? Because that's
what put them on the map, and they really hate that.
And it's extra sore because they're seeing wokeness. I mean again,
they create the validation and good feeling in their conflicted
(19:05):
minds and hearts when they stay in their small groups
at the end of the day, even though they're fifty
to seventy percent of the characters you see in television shows,
only one percent of America is homosexual male. If you
add in lesbians, it gets a two points something. If
(19:25):
you add in transgender three percent. Tops hasn't changed, just
the exposure has. And for basketball fans, they just wanted
to see really good basketball, which is a shame because
you're I watch only the Fever, but it's really good basketball,
and The Fever especially is a really great chemistry and
(19:47):
team story which does what exposes and shines light on
the bigger cancers and flaws of the league in a sense,
to use the analogy we always use. Unfortunately, Sophie and Caitlin,
(20:10):
they're the parasite trying to take over the host. I
don't think it's going to win. They will try, and
they've already exasperated most of us. Okay, this is too much,
and they'll go back to being their private little LGBTQ
(20:33):
woke inclusive club. That's their words, not mine, with nobody watching,
nobody in the stand. Subsidized by the NBA it's really
a shame though, it really is, and it's very revealing
of how toxic that small number is. I mean, that's
why I said, and I guess this is kind of
(20:54):
quasi starting sound the day, which we kind of did. Anyway,
That's what made the coaches grant so important.
Speaker 6 (21:05):
Kindness will win, Love will win. The rest of you
can go to hell.
Speaker 1 (21:16):
Now. Maybe in their little circles that's love, that's kindness.
But love is patient, love is kind. I guess it
depends on who's defining what love is. But even the
average person sees a lot of anger. But they got
(21:38):
more than a fever coach problem. They got a league problem,
all right. We talked extensively yesterday about the takeaway from
Wisconsin was how wrong the polls were. How could you
have a candidate leading right up to the election by
twenty to twenty two points end up losing. There's something
(21:59):
wrong with the numbers, Harriet and got to the bottom
of that. Listen, yeah, how much?
Speaker 8 (22:04):
I mean, my god, can we catch a break here?
Look at this polls over state lefties and DEM primaries.
You know last week it was ten points. You'd think
ten points is a lot. How about twenty points in Wisconsin. Now,
I will note that in this case, Wisconsin had some
late candidates, switches, candidates coming out, candidates.
Speaker 1 (22:23):
Leaving the race.
Speaker 8 (22:24):
And you know, I was suspect after what happened in
Michigan that the polling that showed Francesca hung up by
about twenty points was actually going to come to fruition.
Speaker 1 (22:33):
But it did happen.
Speaker 8 (22:34):
Again, the polls overstated the lefties in Wisconsin, just like
they did in another great Lake battleground state of Michigan.
Speaker 5 (22:41):
Okay, what are some of the possible reasons why these
polls are ultimately overstating the support that they get an
election debn Yeah, if this were just about, you.
Speaker 8 (22:50):
Know, the fact that the polls overestimate the two lefties,
that would be one thing. But I think that this
may speak to something bigger, which is the polling may
be having too many of those young progressives.
Speaker 1 (23:01):
And what am I talking about? Well, just take a
look here.
Speaker 8 (23:04):
Who won the five counties with the most under the
age of forty, that is eighteen to thirty nine. In
the Michigan Senate it was Abdulas said he one to five.
How about a Wisconsin governor the exact same thing in
the youngest counties, that is where these lefties.
Speaker 1 (23:17):
Did the best.
Speaker 8 (23:19):
And so when you kind of look at the polling,
you go, hey, wait a minute, maybe these polls had
too many younger folks in them. And I think that
speaks to something larger, potentially, which is all these pollings
which is showing progressivism on the left, the far left rising,
seeing democratic socialism, especially in the case of Wisconsin rising.
You gotta look at these results and say, hey, wait
a minute, maybe, Johnny, maybe these polls are overestimating how
(23:43):
much that democratic socialism is rising within the Democratic Party,
because in two key statewide races in a row, what
we've seen is the lefties being vastly overestimated, and in
the case of Wisconsin, the Democratic Socialists being vastly overestimated
by twenty points.
Speaker 5 (23:59):
Seelver sample among young people. One of the things that
can happen as young people don't vote as much. Yeah,
and then you can skew the ultimate results.
Speaker 8 (24:04):
There correct, And I think that means so much as
we're looking at these polls and what the actual implications
are in terms of how big the left rise is.
Speaker 5 (24:11):
And the other thing that may have happened in Wisconsin,
especially in Wisconsin, is that people who hadn't decided may
have decided late, or they may have changed their minds
because a lot of the things that people were talking
about just in the last few weeks with Francesca Hong
may not have helped her, like say, her past positions
not digging Thanksgiving.
Speaker 8 (24:28):
Yeah, folks, if you're going to run for political office
in this country, dare I say you should be pro
Thanksgiving from the beginning of the campaign to the end
of the campaign. Enough of the anti Thanksgiving stuff. And
why do I say that, because just look at this,
Americans who think are say that they don't celebrate Thanksgiving.
Speaker 1 (24:46):
It's just eight percent. It's just a right above the
Earth is flat and moon landing was faked. Problems worse
than that, by the way, low turnout change March and
of error. There's sampling issues, and if you're over sampling
young people, you're gonna get a wrong predictive polling model.
(25:09):
Frank Lunz interestingly arrives with this conclusion, we need to
shut down all primary polling until we can figure out
how to get this right listening.
Speaker 7 (25:20):
And I don't think you should be able to delete
stuff like this, and I want to start this interview
by acknowledging a mistake that I made that I never
did again. Back in twenty sixteen, I believe that Hillary
Clinton was going to win based on the Eggsit polling.
Speaker 1 (25:34):
Of all the networks, they all were.
Speaker 4 (25:36):
In the same pool, the same result.
Speaker 1 (25:38):
We did a great segment on this in the Platinum Hour,
so if you're listening to the podcast later, make sure
you listen in the first hour. It's just the opposite
that one's on Frank Lunz being a dunce. I didn't.
It was based on everything leading up to election day
that I thought things leaned Hillary Clinton's way, not a landslide,
(25:59):
but leaned her way. It was until the exit polling
came out at about three pm Central that I looked
at my wife and said, take a shower and get dressed.
We're in this. Before I left for election coverage, I
think he misread the exit The exit polling is what
made me think Trump was in it.
Speaker 7 (26:16):
They all had Hillary's Lynton winning, and so I put
out a prediction that said, what makes you not understand
the words President Hillary Clinton? I got it wrong because
I believe those numbers, and I fixed it, and what
we have now are posters on both sides, Democrats and
Republicans not acknowledging how wrong they are, how they cannot
(26:38):
make these projections. How when you get turnouts of fifteen
percent of electorate, you can't.
Speaker 4 (26:44):
Make a conclusion or projection. And posters need to stop
doing this.
Speaker 1 (26:49):
Well, I think these candidates. Look, we've known the legacy
mainStreet media's been in the back pocket of the Democrat Party.
It's now been outed journalism is dead added with the
technology shifts irrelevant and decomposing. But there is a lot
of social media and what's left of cable media that's
(27:13):
on the side of these socialists, and they play them up.
It's the grand illusion that the LGBTQ has been using,
and it's enough that they're in every sitcom, every drama,
every I mean, you can't go anywhere. They're doing it
on purpose. They're trying to shape the vote. The problem
(27:34):
is what they believe in. How many Americans really rejected
Even Chris Matthews addressed some of that on The Morning Show.
Speaker 9 (27:40):
All these positions can be denied by any regular Democrat.
All you have to do is go out there to
say thank you. DSA for telling us what you believe in.
I don't believe in that stuff, and discriminate because you
can't follow AOC.
Speaker 1 (27:53):
I like IOC generally.
Speaker 9 (27:55):
But she came out and said, we're just a big
tent party with a problem with the big tent defenses.
Every Democrat has to defend all this crap coming from
the left. They've got to say I believe in all
this crazy stuff and that makes me a Democrat. You've
got to say no, no, I'm not a member of
the DSA, and here's why, and.
Speaker 1 (28:10):
Make it very clear.
Speaker 9 (28:11):
So it's going to require politicians to be good politicians.
Speaker 1 (28:14):
And say here's where I stand right, this is what
I'm a regular Democrat.
Speaker 9 (28:18):
I'm for labor unions, I'm for opportunity for everybody.
Speaker 1 (28:21):
I'm for civil rights. I'm from what Matthews gets to.
That I think is the most important and the biggest
shift Harrietton missed in between L Sayed and Wisconsin, or
just shortly before L Sayed, But he had enough of
the craziness in and around Dearborn to carry him and
make it close. Was the DSA coming out with their platform.
(28:45):
I think their platform killed killed their momentum. Axios did
a story saying the socialist fever has broken. Well it broke.
It was what Chris Matthews is pointing to, this crazy platform.
No police that's nuts, No military that's nuts. No prisons
(29:05):
that's notts. No borders that's nuts. And the tent hees
referring to is what we always talk about. They were
oh too willing to allow Bernie and the Socialists in
in their obsession of defeating the ours. And then the socialists,
so obsessed with defeating the progressive and establishment Democrats, allowed
(29:27):
the Islamists in. Now the Islamists want to take them
all out. But this becomes an impossible tent. I predicted
that you would see this socialism cause either the death
(29:47):
of its own movement or the death of the Democratic
Party in this midterm cycle. And then it'll be very
revealing if the Republican Party can survive trump Ism post
Donald Trump, if they try to absorb it like they
did the Tea Party, it'll be a disaster. And all
the Tea Party wanted was debt to be focused on.
(30:10):
All Donald Trump has ever done was what was in
the Republican Party platform. He just didn't talk about it,
not do it. He talked about it and did it.
That's why you can't absorb it. It's actually authentic conservativism
and it will not be absorbed. And if they try
to create a war, they'll divide into at least two parties.
(30:31):
The Democrats are probably gonna divide into four, maybe five parties.
And by the way, the thought of the two party
system dying, I'm not opposed to. I only have one minute.
I guess I'll do Hassan Piker. Most of this I
can't play for you because it's riddled with foul language,
but there is ten seconds he doesn't swear, and it's
(30:51):
very revealing. They're gonna keep doing it. By the way,
they're gonna call us terrorists, they're gonna call us anti semis,
they're gonna call us idealists, and eventually we're gonna win.
They're not going away, and they're not gonna stop trying,
and they're not gonna, you know, stop having the media
(31:11):
in their back pocket. Funny, everything we talked about with
the polling yesterday, it certainly all came true the rest
of the day. Our instincts were right on. This is
bad sampling, weighted sampling, this is polling designed to create
an outcome, not tell you what the outcome will be.
(31:33):
And with these low turnouts, they're absolutely worthless.
Speaker 4 (31:37):
And you're a fresh person.
Speaker 1 (31:39):
I think that side this.
Speaker 3 (31:41):
Is used to call Joe Biden a mentally retarded person.
Speaker 4 (31:44):
Okay, democracy, and let's tale called me king. Now do
you believe no, King, I'm such a king. I can't
get a bull river.
Speaker 1 (31:52):

It's your Morning Show with Michael Delchno.
Speaker 1 (33:17):
The Pittsburg Stealers in Action Tonight, the Lions, the Chargers,
the Cardinals, the Titan Six, Your morning show, Cities pre
season football action, NFL Football Tonight. A winning lottery ticket
has been purchased in Illinois. Somebody's at billionaire. It's not me.
I wasn't in Illinois last night. Another key inflation reporter
is due out today and the cost of diesel fuel
(33:38):
is soaring. It as a result of the wars, and
it's going to affect everything from food to construction, everything
that comes by way of diesel trucks. Roy O'Neil our
national correspondence here with how it affects us the consumers
and that inflation rate.
Speaker 10 (33:50):
Good morning, Rory, and good morning. I'd say it's the
result of the wars. Whorl Yes, what happened to Iran,
but also Ukraine getting much more effective at launching long
range strikes on Russia's refining capacity. Russia was the big
dog and making diesel, and a lot of that production
capacity has been taken offline as a result of drone
(34:10):
strikes by Ukraine, and diesel fuel gets into everything. It's
making fertilizer farmers needed for the tractors of course, trucks
needed to bring products to market. That's why we saw
that nine percent inflation when diesel reached a record back
in twenty twenty two. Fears we may be on that
track again with diesel now back over five point fifty
gallon on average.
Speaker 1 (34:31):
And that's important because these financial reports are showing inflation
kind of petering out and steady, but headed nowhere near
a raid cut. And we're going to have to try
to dodge a rate increase. Diesel could push us towards
a rate increase. Great reporting is always rory. One chance
to live today. Go make a difference in someone's life,
Cherish Jerome. We'll see it tomorrow on the next Your
Morning Show. We're all in this together. This is Your
