Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hi, I'm Michael. I'd love to have you listen to
your morning show live. Every day. We're heard on great
stations like News Talk five point fifty k f YI
and Phoenix News Radio eleven ninety k EX in Portland
and ten ninety The Patriot in Seattle. Make us a
part of your morning routine. We'd love to have you
listen live, but in the meantime, enjoy the podcast.
Speaker 2 (00:17):
Good Morning American Bitch Friday.
Speaker 3 (00:21):
One two three, starting your morning off right, A new
way of talk, a new way of understanding, because I
this is your morning show with Michael Bill Charm and that's.
Speaker 1 (00:39):
What we call the full wind up, the Kick the Bitch.
I can't believe it's Friday already. Where did this week go?
All right? Seven minutes after the hour on Friday, November
the twenty first, you have our Lord twenty twenty five.
Good morning. Thank you for making your morning show a
part of your morning routine. We're here to serve you.
I'm Michael. Jeffrey's got the sound. Red is in Red
(01:00):
and keeping an eye on the content, though not a
peep out of him this morning yet, just completely silent.
Are you on the downlow right now? He viciously, he
viciously prepared show prep today filled with Democrat embarrassment. Could
(01:21):
that be a coincidence of all of them? I'll tell
you what interest is interesting to me today. Most people
news wise will focus on Mom Donnie going to the
Oval Office, the ultimate home court advantage. Right, you got
to sit down with the president and try to explain
to the ultimate capitalist the wisdom of socialism and freebies
(01:44):
you don't have and you can't afford to be a
fly on the wall. Right. Uh, that'll be probably the
biggest news story today. I think the most interesting story
is the announcement that the Hispanic Caucus chairman is the
latest Democrat Congress to be targeted by this I guess, Mom,
Donnie revolution you have the rumors, and I don't think
(02:08):
they're true. I think AOC is going to run for president,
not for the United States Senate. But if the notion
is she's gonna run and take out the old guard
Chucky Schumer as the head of the Senate, and Chiassi
is going to take out Jakeem Jeffries, who is the
minority leader in the House. Now you have the Hispanic
(02:31):
Caracus chair being targeted by a socialist. Now, this to
me is so interesting I could do the whole Morning
show on it. One Are they going after the heads
of snake? It feels like it, doesn't it, But when
you look at it closely, they're really just going after
things in close proximity to New York City. This is
(02:51):
still a socialist playing or they think can play in
and around New York City because Hakim Jeffries this caucus chair.
These are all right near New York City. And then
Juckie Schumer so head of the snake, or close proximity
(03:12):
to New York only where they think they're dumb enough
to buy more probably the more fascinating angle to all
of it. To continue this movement of socialism in New
(03:32):
York or anywhere else. What's the play? What's the ultimate
play here? And does it backfire? This might have been
if you're thinking from a national perspective, this would have
played a lot better one to at least two decades
(03:54):
from now. Timing's everything, and if you play it too early,
good luck, especially outside of New York. The final take
to go after the third head of the snake, being
the Hispanic caucus chair, you're gonna get a lot more
(04:16):
attention beyond New York. I would think Hispanics, which remember
you got to stick to get your eye off the
shiny toy, the socialist movement, runaway train, Mamdani Revolution. What
killed them in twenty twenty four was being too far
(04:39):
left of the American people. And they've gone all the
way left. That's a pretty big thing to take your
eye off of. The second biggest thing was they lost
the Hispanic voting block. Now they lost a good portion
of the Black voting block that they have owned. Black
(04:59):
sl only woke up and said you've never done anything
for me, and what you've done with illegals and taken
from me unforgivable, and that became such a shiny toy.
People forgot the biggest You lost the Hispanic voting block.
Because these people are not socialists. These people don't want
(05:20):
anything for nothing. These people aren't interested in aboarding babies.
They're all about family. They're not interested in freebies. They're
all about hard work. They're born with a work ethic
that can't be touched. We talked yesterday about socialism and
what it is. What it ultimately kills is any incentive
to work hard and when you don't have incentive to
work hard and achieve things. Innovation suffers, job creation suffers. Ultimately,
(05:46):
a government that's already failing you thirty seven trillion dollars
in debt is trusted to provide everything for everyone. And
then the ultimate slap in the face is you could
make a case our founding fathers formed the federal government
just simply for the protect action of your private property.
This season none but what a joke. You want to
go after the Hispanic Caucus chairman that could get a
(06:08):
lot of attention in the Hispanic community and you're already
bleeding votes there. And for what abortion that was your
big play in twenty twenty and twenty twenty four, abortion
and socialism. I can't think of a better way to
gross out and turn off Hispanic voters. Favorite story of
(06:35):
mine hands down. Jobs report may have been late, but
it was better than expected. One hundred nineteen thousand jobs added,
unemployment rated four point four percent. We'll see what the
market does. Moving up four big notches to number two.
Favorite story is the largest funder of El Sha Bob
(06:59):
is the main terrorist group in Africa, and there's a
large Somali population in Minnesota and right under the eyes.
If you remember Timmy running for vice president with Mama
La Kamala. Nobody watching anything, and they've been doing welfare
(07:19):
fraud and funneling the money to the terrorists to the
point and the media, by the way, we'll not connect
the dots. They're not interested to the point where the
largest funder of terrorism for El Shabab is Minnesota taxpayers.
You can't make this stuff up. I think I support this.
Speaker 4 (07:42):
You know.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
Look, one of the big problems if you're trying to
pull off government shutdowns is we end up having air
traffic crisis because eventually they can't go without pay, they
start ubering or whatever. So if you really wanted to
address that, this might be one way to do it.
For the nearly eight hundred air traffic controllers with the
perfect attendance during the government shutdown, a little ten thousand
(08:04):
dollars bonus just in time for Christmas. Actually, that's probably smart,
and it's a nice reward. They could have made things
a lot worse for us. I think it's important to
note for everybody listening, I work for free every day.
It's my service to my country. But I don't look
for any kind of bonuses or special acknowledgements. I'm just
(08:26):
here to serve the American people in any way that
I can.
Speaker 5 (08:29):
Says the man who says nobody loves me when we're
off the air.
Speaker 1 (08:33):
I do, I do need everyone's prayer today. I don't
know whether to come clean on this, but oh boy,
I am surrounded. It's just me and Nick against women everywhere.
My wife, my twin daughters, most of the cats are female. Sure,
basically the only thing male in this house is me,
(08:54):
Boomer Baker, the dog, and Nick. So something like it happens,
all right, the girls get really excited, and then me
and Nick, you know, we're all about we're family men, right,
so we want to support them. We don't understand why
they won't sit and watch a football game with us,
but we're not gonna be like them. You're setting the
example exactly. So Wicked rolls around and they're all like dad,
(09:17):
because I know that feeling. You know, when something's important,
if the people you love aren't there to enjoy it
with you, you almost can't enjoy it. Have you ever done that?
Watched a movie and you're like your wife's not with you,
and you're like, oh, you really can't fully enjoy it
because they're not there. Sure, or maybe you don't you're
pretty selfish and cold. But so Nick and I go
along to Wicked. All right, that's bad enough, right, I'm
(09:37):
really dreading it. So Nick, last year, yeah, last year, Okay,
and I got to tell you maybe the greatest movie
I ever saw in my life. Oh you're getting solved.
I was so moved and they could tell completely lost
my man card. So now this year rolls around, Ded,
you gotta come with this to see Wicked for Good.
You're gonna love it, just like the first one was
this like part two? Yeah, And then now the rumor
(09:59):
is everybody cries if I go to Wicked. Yeah for
good the second the sequel to Wicked. Totally didn't want
to go to the first one. Totally don't want to
go to this one. And I go again, and this
time I cry. I'm no longer the head of this
household a place. I say.
Speaker 5 (10:17):
You skip into the box office, so you.
Speaker 1 (10:22):
Know it's going to be like, you know, just sitting there.
Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry. Oh no, I did
connect one dot of remember in the Wizard of alst
the one with the legs that the house falls on,
and then her legs just kind of go in. Yeah,
well she's the one from the wheelchair in the Wicked movie.
Oh no, good No, so that's the one with the
bald heading, long nails. As sister and I have to
(10:43):
see all of this. I'm not saying Wicked. Oh am
I excited about it? No? But am I dreading it? No?
I need prayer? What's happening to me? I've gotten solved? Uh?
Football this weekend, every quality ranked team is playing a scrub.
(11:03):
I mean, I think Ohio State's playing Samford. That's just
a great university. I love that all the way around,
all these cream puff games. Yeah, the only one that's
kind of got a challenge is ohu. OU is eighth
ranked and they're gonna be playing twenty two ranked Missouri.
And I think there is Missouri the game of the weekend.
Speaker 6 (11:19):
What Montana Montana State two versus three in the Bowl
Championship Series.
Speaker 1 (11:26):
Where you go to Hi, who cares? You're the only
one that cares about Montana one hundred and twenty fourth edition. Uh,
And I thought we got some good matchups. How good
are the Colts? We'll find out they're taking on the
Chiefs this weekend, probably the game of the week for
my listeners. Down to Tampa, the Bucks and the Ram
the Rams. What a sleeper nobody sees coming, I actually
(11:49):
think and I dread years when this happens where the
Rams won the Super Bowl. Sorry to my kye, I'd
be listeners in Los Angeles, but there's just they're just
so well coached. They're just I mean, I actually think
they're the one team no one's talking about. And I
mean the Seahawks and the Rams maybe the two best
(12:10):
teams no one's talking about. And Shawks, the Rams and
the Bucks are this weekend. And the Bears and the Steelers,
although I like the Bears in that one, pretty solid.
And for the Bills last night, you know you can't
throw two interceptions. I warned everybody who's the Texans are
a better football team than you think. And the Bills
fall the seven and four, losing twenty three to nineteen
last night. So sports bis helmets last night? Do not
(12:31):
wear those helmets again? Did you like the other? I
have to be honest with everybody. Yeah, And to my
listeners in Buffalo, I love the Bills, Don't get me wrong.
It was like five point fifty eight because it gets
dark early now, which is our time of the year. Correct,
and Andrew was getting ready to come, you know, into
the room, and I just I felt a wave of
(12:52):
like if I if I close my eyes right now,
I can fall asleep. And I did. I slept ten
hours last night. I never saw one snap of the game.
Good for you, Good for you. Well, the helmets were ugly.
Speaker 5 (13:03):
Go see a picture which one of the bills are
the the Texans helmets. I just didn't like the logo.
I like the Texans logo. I did not like what
they want.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
To send me a picture while I'm preparing and break
all right, if you're just waking up. The New York
City mayor elect zoron Mom Dottie is headed the Oval
Office to visit with Trump. The Ultimate Socialist versus the
Ultimate Capitalist. Epstein Files Transparency Act signed into law Wednesday.
We just don't know which of the next thirty days
these files will dump and be released. And worst city
(13:36):
in the country for holiday traffic, it's one of our markets. Really,
I'll tell you which top five stories of the day
are coming up next.
Speaker 3 (13:48):
This is Your Morning Show with Michael del Chrono.
Speaker 1 (13:52):
Hey, Mike Gi, I'm questioning your man card brother, big job.
What are we gonna do about this guy? Come get
him involved, take care of them. Oh, Jimmy, By the way,
that was my bass voice a base face. Listen, did
you see it? Oo? I'm doing things in the camera
and you won't look at me. I'm playing. Give me attention.
Speaker 5 (14:13):
I'm slaving over a hot board here, trying to cook
up a morning show.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
Listen. There's nothing I love more on earth than my
wife and twin daughters. Of course, I'm gonna go see Wicked,
but crying would be a new love. That's what you
call Big John when I get a jerk teer and cry.
All right? Twenty seven minutes after the hour, Good morning,
Welcome to Friday, the twenty first of November. The White
House says our economy is strong.
Speaker 4 (14:35):
Press Secretary Caroline levittol reporters the September jobs report, which
shows the US economy added more jobs than expected, is
just more proof. Levitt said Trump's entire economic agenda is
about putting more money into the pockets of Americans. She
also cited a study showing that the price of a
typical Thanksgiving dinner has dropped.
Speaker 1 (14:53):
A Mark Mayfield if only members of Congress would fight
for us as hard as they fight for their own power.
But for those of you that are keeping score, Democrats
are up in the battle over redistricting.
Speaker 6 (15:02):
For now, California's new congressional maps are here to stay.
In spite of a federal court ruling blocking Texas's map
changes for the twenty twenty six elections. Ferbia is removed
from California's vote approved Prop fifty, means it's newly drawn
maps can stay. Initially, the measure had a condition for
redistricting based on moves by Republican led states like Texas,
(15:23):
but it was removed before the vote. Thus, the state's
new maps are not contingent on the ruling in Texas.
Speaker 1 (15:29):
I'm Jim Roop. I've heard it. The people. Those two girls,
could they be eat fast? There's so skinny. Wicked for
Good is looking to become the year's biggest debut as
(15:53):
it lands in theaters this weekend. The sequel film is
expected to bring in one hundred and fifty to one
hundred and eighty million dollars is One reviewer at Roger
Ebert dot com says the darker tone that marks the
second half doesn't mean that it's absent in any way
of the wonderful wonder of the land of Oz. Pray
(16:15):
for me now and at the hour of my death. Amen.
Speaker 7 (16:20):
Hi, I am actress Lisa Varga and my morning show
is your Morning Show with Michael del Giorno.
Speaker 1 (16:30):
Hi, I'm Michael. We'd love to have you listen every
weekday morning to your Morning show live, even take us
along with you on the drive to work. We can
be heard on great radio stations like one oh four
ninth The Patriot in Saint Louis, or Talk Radio ninety
eight point three and fifteen ten WLAC and Nashville and
News Talk five fifty k f YI and Phoenix, Arizona.
Love to be a part of your morning routine, but
we're always grateful you're here. Now. Enjoy the podcast, Good
(16:53):
Morning Michael.
Speaker 7 (16:55):
I was listening to the Laura Ingram Show last night
or watching it, and she had a clip of out
some crazy Democratic woman in Nashville that wants to run
for Congress and talked about how much she hated Nashville,
she hated country music. Don't remember her last name, but
her first name was Ashley please comment on this if
(17:15):
you have any further information about her. But I am
a native Nashville.
Speaker 1 (17:21):
Well, she's from Knoxville, went to a very expensive private school.
Her name is Afton, not Ashley aten Ben, and she's
a state representative that is running. There's a vacated seat
in the United States Congress by Mark Green in the
seventh district in Tennessee. Matt Van Epps, who is a Air
Force veteran, is endorsed by the President. He seems to
(17:44):
be headed to victory anyway, but here comes this audio.
And again this is not necessarily one of those lessons,
and there's no such thing as privacy. Again, it's like
this is a call with her and her friend. This
was her on a podcast. So the lesson would be,
you know, if you're thinking about ever, you know, running
to represent a district in Nashville, don't bash it on
(18:06):
a podcast. It might come out.
Speaker 2 (18:08):
I hate country music.
Speaker 5 (18:09):
I hate all of the things that make Nashville apparently
in city to the rest of the country, but I
hate it.
Speaker 1 (18:15):
Been heavily involved with.
Speaker 5 (18:18):
The Nashville mayoral race because I hate the city.
Speaker 7 (18:21):
I hate the bachelor metal taverns, I hate country music.
Speaker 2 (18:25):
I hate all of.
Speaker 5 (18:26):
The things that make Nashville apparently.
Speaker 1 (18:28):
In city to the rest of the country. Yeah, apparently,
you know, hating the place you're going to represent. That's
not the great way to close the race. And then
she called it racist. Yeah, you know, it's typical. Uh,
but I could tell you there's a lot of Democrats
seemingly who went office who seem to hate America. So
who knows, maybe it's a winning message. New York City
(18:48):
Mayor elect Zoran mam Donnie is headed to Washington to
meet with the President. We do not know if cameras
will be allowed. If cameras are allowed, it's going to
be a you know what show. But if they meet
in private, who knows, maybe some reasonable reaching of heart
and mind and some level of understanding can take place.
(19:10):
The Epstein files have been approved to be released, but
they have thirty days to release them, and we just
don't know when the first ones are going to start
trickling out. And US automakers will soon be required to
use female crash dummies to test vehicle safety. Is this
just political correctness? Well, he's the hero of the right.
Behind enemy Lines. On CNN each weeknight, Scott Jennings is
(19:30):
our Spotlight Interview of the week. He's out with a
new book called A Revolution of common Sense, and we
caught up with him to talk about that and his future.
Speaker 2 (19:40):
Hey Michael, good morning. Thanks for doing this.
Speaker 1 (19:42):
We're huge, huge fans. You know, my brother was a
big fighter, and he was maybe at his best when
it was against three or four people. That's your life
every night, four on one on CNN, and now you're
out with your new book, A Revolution of common Sense.
I guess my first question is in Matrix, were living
in these silos of far left and far right, the
(20:04):
death of journalism, the social dilemma. Can common sense compete
with these permanent, immediate, partisan dysfunctional positions that we all
stake every day.
Speaker 8 (20:17):
Well, I think not only can it compete, it can succeed.
I mean, I think it's how Donald Trump won the
November twenty twenty four election. I think during the Biden years,
we were being fed a bunch of uncommon nonsense on
some cultural issues, on some governing issues, and you know,
you're being told things that you know not to believe
your own eyes.
Speaker 2 (20:35):
It just wasn't good common sense.
Speaker 8 (20:37):
And I think Trump, you know, he used the phrase
is a revolution of common sense in his inaugural address,
but it really kind of sums up the way he
has rebranded the Republican Party and the conservative movement. And
because of that rebrand he has been able to build
what is, frankly a wide and ideologically diverse political coalition.
People who didn't vote that much, maybe he never voted,
(21:00):
people who didn't think of themselves as Republicans. Certainly they're
not attracted to ideology, They're attracted to common sense. And
Trump sensed that himself, and that's the title and branding
that he's applied to and it's worked quite well for him.
Speaker 1 (21:12):
And this is a very very compelling book because you
have access to very, very compelling people. I mean, that's
probably the most especially when we start thinking about who
we're going to pick in twenty twenty eight, you sit
down with all of them, Rubio, all the key players.
What in a pursuit of common sense or in a
(21:32):
pursuit of understanding what this administration is accomplished.
Speaker 8 (21:37):
I wanted to understand President Trump's leadership and management style.
And I told him in February when I pitched him
on the book that I thought one hundred people would
write books to grind accees and to just you know,
kind of crap on them because that's what they do.
But I'm someone look, I want to understand. I support him.
You know, I'm a Republican, and you know, as you
know on CNN, I've been defensive of him when I
(21:58):
think he's come under unfair tac which is almost on
a daily basis.
Speaker 2 (22:02):
But I think someone who likes.
Speaker 8 (22:04):
Him and wants him to succeed should get a chance
to understand how this all works. And so in pursuit
of that, I talked to the President. I was in
the Oval Office, I flew on Air Force one. I
interviewed Marco Rubio, Scott Bess and Elon musk Leezeld and
the EPA administrator Doug Bergham at Interior, some of his
political advisors. And I came away, I think, with a
pretty good understanding of how he manages the government, but
(22:26):
also of Donald Trump the person.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
I learned a lot about Trump.
Speaker 8 (22:30):
I hadn't spent really any time with him personally at
all until I wrote this book, but honestly, I learned
a lot about him personally, and truthfully, I feel a
lot closer to him today than I think I ever have,
because I got a sense of who Donald Trump is
behind the scenes, and I think the caricature that is
portrayed in the media is not at all what you
get with Donald Trump.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
And that's what Bill Maher walked away with right that
same impression. Scott Jennings, senior political contributor for CNN, author
of the new book A Revolution of Common Sense. When
you spend time with the President, what was different about him?
Like what exceeded all your expectations and what actually shocked
you that was different than what you thought, Because I
(23:10):
think everybody that meets him says, you know, Bill Martin
described it as this is his persona, this is you know,
the reality TV charactery place. But when you're alone with him,
very personable, very warm, very on point. What did you
take away?
Speaker 2 (23:27):
So personally I found the same thing. Very warm.
Speaker 8 (23:29):
He's sort of hospitality minded, you know, he's constantly soliciting people,
you know, do you need something to drink? When I
went with him to Michigan, he said, do you want
my hat? He like literally was trying to give me
the hat off his head, and I said, you know,
I don't, but I know someone who does, and it's
my dad, Because my dad was the first person to
ever tell me you were going to be the president.
And he said, oh, sounds like a smart guy. And
(23:51):
he takes a hat off and signs it and hands.
Speaker 2 (23:54):
It to me.
Speaker 8 (23:55):
But he was very solicitous of people. And also he's
very engaging. You know, he'll get in a room and
there's all kinds of different people with different reasons for
being there, but he'll engage everyone in a conversation. He's
actually an active listener. He solicits people's opinions. He listens
to debates back and forth among his advisors. But then
he's also quite decisive, and I think this is different
(24:17):
than Biden, who was famously indecisive. Trump is decisive, but
he does absorb a lot of information by listening to
people kind of hash it out right in front of him.
Speaker 2 (24:26):
He asks good questions.
Speaker 8 (24:28):
He does have opinions, but you can't influence him when
he's listening to these debates. And I watched him kind
of do this with his advisors. But you know, once
the decision is made, once the boss has made the decision.
The thing about his team is everybody salutes and moves forward,
and I think that's one of the reasons they've been
able to.
Speaker 2 (24:46):
Move so quickly.
Speaker 8 (24:47):
He's got a team in place that truly matches his
management style. And there's really nobody in here who isn't
willing to execute on the president's agenda. They put their
own views aside. Once the president makes a decision, they
go and execute. We have so little time, and I
have so much I want to talk to you about.
I come from a biblical perspective, so that really guides
(25:07):
my policy views. But then I'm a great student of history,
great student of policies, and that's how I arrived. So
I kind of became and I was very influenced by
the Reagan administration, obviously because of my age.
Speaker 1 (25:18):
So like you who worked for George W. Bush, I
was a Bush fan. There were things I disagreed with
immigration issues that I had some of the war issues.
But you know, the journey to Trump has been so different,
and I think i'd be interested to know how your
take is. Barack Obama was all style, no substance. Joe
(25:39):
Biden was no substance or style. Donald Trump is all substance,
and sometimes his style is controversial. Where do you put
him in recent history with presidents, And what do you
think his legacy will be.
Speaker 8 (25:50):
Well, I think it's the greatest political comeback in modern
American political history.
Speaker 2 (25:54):
That's number one.
Speaker 8 (25:55):
Number Two, I think replacing him, well, somebody has to
replace him.
Speaker 2 (25:59):
At nobody can replicate him.
Speaker 8 (26:02):
And number three, look, I think he and I told
him this in February. I thought he revolutionized political campaigning
and I thought he was about to revolutionize governing. I
think it's the most active presidency frankly since FDR, certainly
the most active presidency in modern American history. I think
part of the strategy was I'm going to put so
much in the water here that I'm going to overwhelm
(26:24):
the opposition. I'm going to show up and I'm going
to I know that I've got Democrats against me, the media,
and the entrench federal bureaucracy. My only choice to fight
back is to overwhelm it. And that's frankly what he did.
In the first hundred days. They didn't know what to do.
He puts so much out there that they did not
know what to do, and it really worked to his benefit.
But it's an active presidency, and I think the next
(26:46):
president you'll never replicate Donald Trump, but some of the
lessons here are. You know, you don't have to obey
old arrangements. The worst thing you can tell Donald Trump
is well, we've never done it that way before. He
does not respect that phrase, and I don't think the
next president will either. That'll be an enduring legacy here
of him. Just the active use of the presidency. If
(27:07):
you're not willing to be hemmed in by the way
somebody did it twenty years ago, you can operate quite
freely in the office of the president.
Speaker 1 (27:14):
The book is called The Revolution of Common Sense. CNN
senior political contributor is joining us Scott Jennings Scott Trump
derangement syndrome.
Speaker 8 (27:24):
Does this go away after Trump's gone? Well, it'll never
go away. But what will happen is it will morph
into this. Whoever we nominate next, whether it's Vance or anybody,
the construct will be, oh, you know, this is actually
worse than Trump. So it'll be like worse than Trump
derangement syndrome. Everything that Vance or Rubio or whoever does next.
The next iteration is, oh, this boy, well this is
(27:47):
worse than Trump. I look, I worked for George W.
Bush I'm old enough to remember when they called him anots.
Speaker 2 (27:52):
When they said he was racist, when they said he.
Speaker 8 (27:55):
Was an authoritarian war criminal that needed to be thrown
you know, in the Hague somewhere. Now you have Democrats saying, oh,
ohver the days of George W.
Speaker 2 (28:04):
Bush.
Speaker 8 (28:04):
You know, they'll do the same thing to Trump. The
next person, by definition, will have to be worse than Trump.
Speaker 2 (28:10):
It's the only thing they know how to do.
Speaker 8 (28:13):
Call you a Nazi today and then call your success
or worse than you tomorrow. It's the only thing Democrats
know how to do. I've been living with it for
twenty five years.
Speaker 1 (28:20):
Oh and you've been living it on set on CNN.
All right. So if the Democrats have problems, they have
a civil war the socialist and I think there's an
Islamist element in there too, Socialist Islamist, and they'll start
fighting amongst themselves. One wants to use the Democrat party
to get to socialism, One authentically wants to use socialism
to get to an Islamis state. That'll all play out.
(28:41):
That's like a parasite, and when it kills the host,
it dies with it. So I don't know what the
future the Democrat Party is. But do are Republicans have
bit blindsided? Could there be a big establishment versus Trumpism battle,
or is there a smooth handoff to trump Ism because
these wins have not been Republican, they've been Orange. Trump is.
Speaker 8 (29:01):
Yeah, it's an interesting question about what happens next to
both parties. I mean, I think Trump has changed the
coalition of the Republican Party. But it is the nature
of presidential campaigns and presidencies to be unique. I mean,
who replaced Barack Obama? For the Democrats, who replaced Bill Clinton?
You know who replaced George W.
Speaker 1 (29:19):
Bush.
Speaker 8 (29:19):
When you are a two term president, you know a
lot of what you build is unique to you. So
we'll see how Jade Vance, if he's the nominee, what
kind of imprint he wants to put on the party.
I think he may have some different policy views than
Donald Trump, and that may change the coalition. On the
Democratic side. I think it's clear all the energy in
their party is with the socialist wing. Bernie Sanders is
(29:40):
the intellectual godfather, AOC is kind of the head of
it operationally, and you look at Mom Donnie, who's now
the most popular Democrat in the country. It's all this
strain of energetic socialism, people who think America is rotten
at its core and that it needs to be ripped out,
root and branch and replaced with something.
Speaker 2 (29:58):
Very, very different.
Speaker 8 (29:59):
I'll be shocked, shocked if they don't nominate someone in
twenty eight who isn't more from the socialist winging Well.
Speaker 1 (30:04):
It seems like Bernie has all but handed the torch
to AOC. Everybody's anticipating her running for the Senate and
getting rid of Chucky. I think she's running for president.
I think she'll be an early leader. I agree with you.
Speaker 8 (30:15):
I think I think you have the ambitious political wing
led by Newsom. But the true energy, the true energy
of the left right now is with AOC and the socialists.
And look there, look at look at the polling. You
have more Democrats who think better of socialism than they
do of capitalism.
Speaker 2 (30:31):
That's where their hearts are.
Speaker 8 (30:33):
And that you know, the establishment Democrats fought this off
in sixteen, and they fought it off again in twenty
twenty in their nominating contest. But I don't think they'll
be able to fight it off in twenty twenty.
Speaker 1 (30:45):
Oh to be Lelly King and have Scott Jennings for
the full lawa but I don't have that so closing moments.
We're huge fans of yours. I love I kind of
view you. Everybody was a little over the top, but
I mean everybody kind of discovered Charlie Kirk. You've kind
of lived that legacy media. You're behind enemy lines every
day with four people, five people coming at you, a
(31:05):
lot of the major you know, political operatives, and you
just do amazing. That makes you like a Charlie Kirk
in the media. What's next for you and what do
you enjoy more? Because I love you right where you're at,
and I'm wondering how that compares to like your new
radio show, which is what I'm kind of stuck in.
I would love to go behind enemy lines and win
(31:27):
hearts and minds or stand up for the truth. I
remember when Elizabeth Hasselbeck was in that situation on the view.
It's a lot of weight you carry and you shine
at your best. What's the future look like for you?
Speaker 8 (31:38):
Well, I'm quite happy with my life and I'm quite
pleased with CNN. They've given me a great platform, and
I think this debating show that we do they deserve
great credit. Most cable is just six people sitting around
agreeing with each exactly. We're actually having debates. And everywhere
I go out here one of two things. I love
you and I love the debates, or I don't like you,
but I love the debates. People like debates. I can't
(31:59):
believe they're aren't more debating shows on. But I think
I was put on this earth to debate and maybe
be a pilgrim in an unholy land.
Speaker 2 (32:06):
So that what I'm going to keep doing for the
time being.
Speaker 1 (32:08):
And what about office out of it? What about office seas?
Speaker 2 (32:12):
We'll see. I just turned forty eight. I got time
on that.
Speaker 1 (32:15):
I agree, Scott. I think the book is tremendous access
to all the people that are leading our country right
now and all the people that our country, half of
our country caught the matrix is revolting against and I
think buried in the midst of that is our way out,
which is this document two hundred and fifty years ago
that we're about to celebrate a birthday, had a whole
(32:35):
lot of common sense, and maybe the revolution has begun,
a revolution of common sense. Scott Jennings, A book we
encourage everyone to get. Thank you so much for your time.
Speaker 2 (32:43):
Appreciate this honored by the conversation.
Speaker 1 (32:45):
Thank you sir, and we are going to have Scott
back a lot. Look forward to that.
Speaker 2 (32:49):
Well.
Speaker 1 (32:49):
History shows that every market falls, every currency can collapse.
Today the dollar is shrinking, We're trillions thirty seven trillion
in debt, record high markets, defying gravity. But stocks can't
go up forever. Meanwhile, groceries, housing, transportation costs, they're all
rising in our dollar. It's buying less every day. And
(33:09):
if a crash hits, your stocks won't save you. Dollars
won't either. One thing will. Gold. Gold has always survived.
That's why central banks are buying gold by the ton.
Billionaires are stocking up even every day. Americans are protecting
their savings in retirement with physical gold. Don't wait for
the headlines, don't wait for panic. That's too late. Call

Speaker 3 (33:59):
Today, It's Your Morning Show with Michael del Chorno.
Speaker 1 (34:04):
What's the old saying, First they mock you, then they
discredit you, then they fight you, then you win. That's
kind of how it was with Bobby Bobby Kennedy. Language
on the CDC website they use to state that vaccines
do not cause autism appears to have changed.
Speaker 4 (34:23):
It now states that the claim vaccines do not cause
autism is not an evidence based claim because studies have
not ruled out the possibility that infant vaccines cause autism.
Speaker 1 (34:34):
Page also says that the.
Speaker 4 (34:35):
HHS has launched a comprehensive assessment of the causes of autism.
The Autism Science Foundation said in a statement that the
change is anti vaccine rhetoric and outright lies about vaccines
and autism.
Speaker 1 (34:48):
By Mark Mayfield, the cost of a large Thanksgiving dinner
is down five percent.
Speaker 9 (34:52):
The American Farm Bureau Federation says the cost of the
holiday meal dropped after retail is implemented a sixteen percent
decrease in the price of his sixteen pound turkey. In
a statement, the Farm Bureau said, while the wholesale price
for fresh turkey is up from twenty twenty four, grocery
stores are featuring Thanksgiving deals and are attempting to draw
consumer demand back to turkey. That's leading to lower retail
(35:13):
prices for the holiday bird. I'm Tammy Trichillo.
Speaker 1 (35:16):
US automakers would soon be required to use female like
crash dummies to test vehicle safety.
Speaker 6 (35:22):
Right now, most safety systems are tested only with male
like test dummies, even though women face higher injury rates
in certain types of crashes. A National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration has unveiled an advanced female crash test dummy. Officials
say it has more than one hundred and fifty centers
and can collect three times more injury data than the
(35:43):
current models. Automakers can begin purchasing these dummies now, ahead
of a federal rule that will require crash data specific
to female occupants.
Speaker 1 (35:51):
You could learn a lot from a dummy. I'm Jim.
That's your top five stories the day.
Speaker 3 (35:56):
We're all in this together. This Is Your Morning Show
with Michael del Choino
Hi, I'm Michael. I'd love to have you listen to
your morning show live. Every day. We're heard on great
stations like News Talk five point fifty k f YI
and Phoenix News Radio eleven ninety k EX in Portland
and ten ninety The Patriot in Seattle. Make us a
part of your morning routine. We'd love to have you
listen live, but in the meantime, enjoy the podcast.
Speaker 2 (00:17):
Good Morning American Bitch Friday.
Speaker 3 (00:21):
One two three, starting your morning off right, A new
way of talk, a new way of understanding, because I
this is your morning show with Michael Bill Charm and that's.
Speaker 1 (00:39):
What we call the full wind up, the Kick the Bitch.
I can't believe it's Friday already. Where did this week go?
All right? Seven minutes after the hour on Friday, November
the twenty first, you have our Lord twenty twenty five.
Good morning. Thank you for making your morning show a
part of your morning routine. We're here to serve you.
I'm Michael. Jeffrey's got the sound. Red is in Red
(01:00):
and keeping an eye on the content, though not a
peep out of him this morning yet, just completely silent.
Are you on the downlow right now? He viciously, he
viciously prepared show prep today filled with Democrat embarrassment. Could
(01:21):
that be a coincidence of all of them? I'll tell
you what interest is interesting to me today. Most people
news wise will focus on Mom Donnie going to the
Oval Office, the ultimate home court advantage. Right, you got
to sit down with the president and try to explain
to the ultimate capitalist the wisdom of socialism and freebies
(01:44):
you don't have and you can't afford to be a
fly on the wall. Right. Uh, that'll be probably the
biggest news story today. I think the most interesting story
is the announcement that the Hispanic Caucus chairman is the
latest Democrat Congress to be targeted by this I guess, Mom,
Donnie revolution you have the rumors, and I don't think
(02:08):
they're true. I think AOC is going to run for president,
not for the United States Senate. But if the notion
is she's gonna run and take out the old guard
Chucky Schumer as the head of the Senate, and Chiassi
is going to take out Jakeem Jeffries, who is the
minority leader in the House. Now you have the Hispanic
(02:31):
Caracus chair being targeted by a socialist. Now, this to
me is so interesting I could do the whole Morning
show on it. One Are they going after the heads
of snake? It feels like it, doesn't it, But when
you look at it closely, they're really just going after
things in close proximity to New York City. This is
(02:51):
still a socialist playing or they think can play in
and around New York City because Hakim Jeffries this caucus chair.
These are all right near New York City. And then
Juckie Schumer so head of the snake, or close proximity
(03:12):
to New York only where they think they're dumb enough
to buy more probably the more fascinating angle to all
of it. To continue this movement of socialism in New
(03:32):
York or anywhere else. What's the play? What's the ultimate
play here? And does it backfire? This might have been
if you're thinking from a national perspective, this would have
played a lot better one to at least two decades
(03:54):
from now. Timing's everything, and if you play it too early,
good luck, especially outside of New York. The final take
to go after the third head of the snake, being
the Hispanic caucus chair, you're gonna get a lot more
(04:16):
attention beyond New York. I would think Hispanics, which remember
you got to stick to get your eye off the
shiny toy, the socialist movement, runaway train, Mamdani Revolution. What
killed them in twenty twenty four was being too far
(04:39):
left of the American people. And they've gone all the
way left. That's a pretty big thing to take your
eye off of. The second biggest thing was they lost
the Hispanic voting block. Now they lost a good portion
of the Black voting block that they have owned. Black
(04:59):
sl only woke up and said you've never done anything
for me, and what you've done with illegals and taken
from me unforgivable, and that became such a shiny toy.
People forgot the biggest You lost the Hispanic voting block.
Because these people are not socialists. These people don't want
(05:20):
anything for nothing. These people aren't interested in aboarding babies.
They're all about family. They're not interested in freebies. They're
all about hard work. They're born with a work ethic
that can't be touched. We talked yesterday about socialism and
what it is. What it ultimately kills is any incentive
to work hard and when you don't have incentive to
work hard and achieve things. Innovation suffers, job creation suffers. Ultimately,
(05:46):
a government that's already failing you thirty seven trillion dollars
in debt is trusted to provide everything for everyone. And
then the ultimate slap in the face is you could
make a case our founding fathers formed the federal government
just simply for the protect action of your private property.
This season none but what a joke. You want to
go after the Hispanic Caucus chairman that could get a
(06:08):
lot of attention in the Hispanic community and you're already
bleeding votes there. And for what abortion that was your
big play in twenty twenty and twenty twenty four, abortion
and socialism. I can't think of a better way to
gross out and turn off Hispanic voters. Favorite story of
(06:35):
mine hands down. Jobs report may have been late, but
it was better than expected. One hundred nineteen thousand jobs added,
unemployment rated four point four percent. We'll see what the
market does. Moving up four big notches to number two.
Favorite story is the largest funder of El Sha Bob
(06:59):
is the main terrorist group in Africa, and there's a
large Somali population in Minnesota and right under the eyes.
If you remember Timmy running for vice president with Mama
La Kamala. Nobody watching anything, and they've been doing welfare
(07:19):
fraud and funneling the money to the terrorists to the
point and the media, by the way, we'll not connect
the dots. They're not interested to the point where the
largest funder of terrorism for El Shabab is Minnesota taxpayers.
You can't make this stuff up. I think I support this.
Speaker 4 (07:42):
You know.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
Look, one of the big problems if you're trying to
pull off government shutdowns is we end up having air
traffic crisis because eventually they can't go without pay, they
start ubering or whatever. So if you really wanted to
address that, this might be one way to do it.
For the nearly eight hundred air traffic controllers with the
perfect attendance during the government shutdown, a little ten thousand
(08:04):
dollars bonus just in time for Christmas. Actually, that's probably smart,
and it's a nice reward. They could have made things
a lot worse for us. I think it's important to
note for everybody listening, I work for free every day.
It's my service to my country. But I don't look
for any kind of bonuses or special acknowledgements. I'm just
(08:26):
here to serve the American people in any way that
I can.
Speaker 5 (08:29):
Says the man who says nobody loves me when we're
off the air.
Speaker 1 (08:33):
I do, I do need everyone's prayer today. I don't
know whether to come clean on this, but oh boy,
I am surrounded. It's just me and Nick against women everywhere.
My wife, my twin daughters, most of the cats are female. Sure,
basically the only thing male in this house is me,
(08:54):
Boomer Baker, the dog, and Nick. So something like it happens,
all right, the girls get really excited, and then me
and Nick, you know, we're all about we're family men, right,
so we want to support them. We don't understand why
they won't sit and watch a football game with us,
but we're not gonna be like them. You're setting the
example exactly. So Wicked rolls around and they're all like dad,
(09:17):
because I know that feeling. You know, when something's important,
if the people you love aren't there to enjoy it
with you, you almost can't enjoy it. Have you ever done that?
Watched a movie and you're like your wife's not with you,
and you're like, oh, you really can't fully enjoy it
because they're not there. Sure, or maybe you don't you're
pretty selfish and cold. But so Nick and I go
along to Wicked. All right, that's bad enough, right, I'm
(09:37):
really dreading it. So Nick, last year, yeah, last year, Okay,
and I got to tell you maybe the greatest movie
I ever saw in my life. Oh you're getting solved.
I was so moved and they could tell completely lost
my man card. So now this year rolls around, Ded,
you gotta come with this to see Wicked for Good.
You're gonna love it, just like the first one was
this like part two? Yeah, And then now the rumor
(09:59):
is everybody cries if I go to Wicked. Yeah for
good the second the sequel to Wicked. Totally didn't want
to go to the first one. Totally don't want to
go to this one. And I go again, and this
time I cry. I'm no longer the head of this
household a place. I say.
Speaker 5 (10:17):
You skip into the box office, so you.
Speaker 1 (10:22):
Know it's going to be like, you know, just sitting there.
Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry. Oh no, I did
connect one dot of remember in the Wizard of alst
the one with the legs that the house falls on,
and then her legs just kind of go in. Yeah,
well she's the one from the wheelchair in the Wicked movie.
Oh no, good No, so that's the one with the
bald heading, long nails. As sister and I have to
(10:43):
see all of this. I'm not saying Wicked. Oh am
I excited about it? No? But am I dreading it? No?
I need prayer? What's happening to me? I've gotten solved? Uh?
Football this weekend, every quality ranked team is playing a scrub.
(11:03):
I mean, I think Ohio State's playing Samford. That's just
a great university. I love that all the way around,
all these cream puff games. Yeah, the only one that's
kind of got a challenge is ohu. OU is eighth
ranked and they're gonna be playing twenty two ranked Missouri.
And I think there is Missouri the game of the weekend.
Speaker 6 (11:19):
What Montana Montana State two versus three in the Bowl
Championship Series.
Speaker 1 (11:26):
Where you go to Hi, who cares? You're the only
one that cares about Montana one hundred and twenty fourth edition. Uh,
And I thought we got some good matchups. How good
are the Colts? We'll find out they're taking on the
Chiefs this weekend, probably the game of the week for
my listeners. Down to Tampa, the Bucks and the Ram
the Rams. What a sleeper nobody sees coming, I actually
(11:49):
think and I dread years when this happens where the
Rams won the Super Bowl. Sorry to my kye, I'd
be listeners in Los Angeles, but there's just they're just
so well coached. They're just I mean, I actually think
they're the one team no one's talking about. And I
mean the Seahawks and the Rams maybe the two best
(12:10):
teams no one's talking about. And Shawks, the Rams and
the Bucks are this weekend. And the Bears and the Steelers,
although I like the Bears in that one, pretty solid.
And for the Bills last night, you know you can't
throw two interceptions. I warned everybody who's the Texans are
a better football team than you think. And the Bills
fall the seven and four, losing twenty three to nineteen
last night. So sports bis helmets last night? Do not
(12:31):
wear those helmets again? Did you like the other? I
have to be honest with everybody. Yeah, And to my
listeners in Buffalo, I love the Bills, Don't get me wrong.
It was like five point fifty eight because it gets
dark early now, which is our time of the year. Correct,
and Andrew was getting ready to come, you know, into
the room, and I just I felt a wave of
(12:52):
like if I if I close my eyes right now,
I can fall asleep. And I did. I slept ten
hours last night. I never saw one snap of the game.
Good for you, Good for you. Well, the helmets were ugly.
Speaker 5 (13:03):
Go see a picture which one of the bills are
the the Texans helmets. I just didn't like the logo.
I like the Texans logo. I did not like what
they want.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
To send me a picture while I'm preparing and break
all right, if you're just waking up. The New York
City mayor elect zoron Mom Dottie is headed the Oval
Office to visit with Trump. The Ultimate Socialist versus the
Ultimate Capitalist. Epstein Files Transparency Act signed into law Wednesday.
We just don't know which of the next thirty days
these files will dump and be released. And worst city
(13:36):
in the country for holiday traffic, it's one of our markets. Really,
I'll tell you which top five stories of the day
are coming up next.
Speaker 3 (13:48):
This is Your Morning Show with Michael del Chrono.
Speaker 1 (13:52):
Hey, Mike Gi, I'm questioning your man card brother, big job.
What are we gonna do about this guy? Come get
him involved, take care of them. Oh, Jimmy, By the way,
that was my bass voice a base face. Listen, did
you see it? Oo? I'm doing things in the camera
and you won't look at me. I'm playing. Give me attention.
Speaker 5 (14:13):
I'm slaving over a hot board here, trying to cook
up a morning show.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
Listen. There's nothing I love more on earth than my
wife and twin daughters. Of course, I'm gonna go see Wicked,
but crying would be a new love. That's what you
call Big John when I get a jerk teer and cry.
All right? Twenty seven minutes after the hour, Good morning,
Welcome to Friday, the twenty first of November. The White
House says our economy is strong.
Speaker 4 (14:35):
Press Secretary Caroline levittol reporters the September jobs report, which
shows the US economy added more jobs than expected, is
just more proof. Levitt said Trump's entire economic agenda is
about putting more money into the pockets of Americans. She
also cited a study showing that the price of a
typical Thanksgiving dinner has dropped.
Speaker 1 (14:53):
A Mark Mayfield if only members of Congress would fight
for us as hard as they fight for their own power.
But for those of you that are keeping score, Democrats
are up in the battle over redistricting.
Speaker 6 (15:02):
For now, California's new congressional maps are here to stay.
In spite of a federal court ruling blocking Texas's map
changes for the twenty twenty six elections. Ferbia is removed
from California's vote approved Prop fifty, means it's newly drawn
maps can stay. Initially, the measure had a condition for
redistricting based on moves by Republican led states like Texas,
(15:23):
but it was removed before the vote. Thus, the state's
new maps are not contingent on the ruling in Texas.
Speaker 1 (15:29):
I'm Jim Roop. I've heard it. The people. Those two girls,
could they be eat fast? There's so skinny. Wicked for
Good is looking to become the year's biggest debut as
(15:53):
it lands in theaters this weekend. The sequel film is
expected to bring in one hundred and fifty to one
hundred and eighty million dollars is One reviewer at Roger
Ebert dot com says the darker tone that marks the
second half doesn't mean that it's absent in any way
of the wonderful wonder of the land of Oz. Pray
(16:15):
for me now and at the hour of my death. Amen.
Speaker 7 (16:20):
Hi, I am actress Lisa Varga and my morning show
is your Morning Show with Michael del Giorno.
Speaker 1 (16:30):
Hi, I'm Michael. We'd love to have you listen every
weekday morning to your Morning show live, even take us
along with you on the drive to work. We can
be heard on great radio stations like one oh four
ninth The Patriot in Saint Louis, or Talk Radio ninety
eight point three and fifteen ten WLAC and Nashville and
News Talk five fifty k f YI and Phoenix, Arizona.
Love to be a part of your morning routine, but
we're always grateful you're here. Now. Enjoy the podcast, Good
(16:53):
Morning Michael.
Speaker 7 (16:55):
I was listening to the Laura Ingram Show last night
or watching it, and she had a clip of out
some crazy Democratic woman in Nashville that wants to run
for Congress and talked about how much she hated Nashville,
she hated country music. Don't remember her last name, but
her first name was Ashley please comment on this if
(17:15):
you have any further information about her. But I am
a native Nashville.
Speaker 1 (17:21):
Well, she's from Knoxville, went to a very expensive private school.
Her name is Afton, not Ashley aten Ben, and she's
a state representative that is running. There's a vacated seat
in the United States Congress by Mark Green in the
seventh district in Tennessee. Matt Van Epps, who is a Air
Force veteran, is endorsed by the President. He seems to
(17:44):
be headed to victory anyway, but here comes this audio.
And again this is not necessarily one of those lessons,
and there's no such thing as privacy. Again, it's like
this is a call with her and her friend. This
was her on a podcast. So the lesson would be,
you know, if you're thinking about ever, you know, running
to represent a district in Nashville, don't bash it on
(18:06):
a podcast. It might come out.
Speaker 2 (18:08):
I hate country music.
Speaker 5 (18:09):
I hate all of the things that make Nashville apparently
in city to the rest of the country, but I
hate it.
Speaker 1 (18:15):
Been heavily involved with.
Speaker 5 (18:18):
The Nashville mayoral race because I hate the city.
Speaker 7 (18:21):
I hate the bachelor metal taverns, I hate country music.
Speaker 2 (18:25):
I hate all of.
Speaker 5 (18:26):
The things that make Nashville apparently.
Speaker 1 (18:28):
In city to the rest of the country. Yeah, apparently,
you know, hating the place you're going to represent. That's
not the great way to close the race. And then
she called it racist. Yeah, you know, it's typical. Uh,
but I could tell you there's a lot of Democrats
seemingly who went office who seem to hate America. So
who knows, maybe it's a winning message. New York City
(18:48):
Mayor elect Zoran mam Donnie is headed to Washington to
meet with the President. We do not know if cameras
will be allowed. If cameras are allowed, it's going to
be a you know what show. But if they meet
in private, who knows, maybe some reasonable reaching of heart
and mind and some level of understanding can take place.
(19:10):
The Epstein files have been approved to be released, but
they have thirty days to release them, and we just
don't know when the first ones are going to start
trickling out. And US automakers will soon be required to
use female crash dummies to test vehicle safety. Is this
just political correctness? Well, he's the hero of the right.
Behind enemy Lines. On CNN each weeknight, Scott Jennings is
(19:30):
our Spotlight Interview of the week. He's out with a
new book called A Revolution of common Sense, and we
caught up with him to talk about that and his future.
Speaker 2 (19:40):
Hey Michael, good morning. Thanks for doing this.
Speaker 1 (19:42):
We're huge, huge fans. You know, my brother was a
big fighter, and he was maybe at his best when
it was against three or four people. That's your life
every night, four on one on CNN, and now you're
out with your new book, A Revolution of common Sense.
I guess my first question is in Matrix, were living
in these silos of far left and far right, the
(20:04):
death of journalism, the social dilemma. Can common sense compete
with these permanent, immediate, partisan dysfunctional positions that we all
stake every day.
Speaker 8 (20:17):
Well, I think not only can it compete, it can succeed.
I mean, I think it's how Donald Trump won the
November twenty twenty four election. I think during the Biden years,
we were being fed a bunch of uncommon nonsense on
some cultural issues, on some governing issues, and you know,
you're being told things that you know not to believe
your own eyes.
Speaker 2 (20:35):
It just wasn't good common sense.
Speaker 8 (20:37):
And I think Trump, you know, he used the phrase
is a revolution of common sense in his inaugural address,
but it really kind of sums up the way he
has rebranded the Republican Party and the conservative movement. And
because of that rebrand he has been able to build
what is, frankly a wide and ideologically diverse political coalition.
People who didn't vote that much, maybe he never voted,
(21:00):
people who didn't think of themselves as Republicans. Certainly they're
not attracted to ideology, They're attracted to common sense. And
Trump sensed that himself, and that's the title and branding
that he's applied to and it's worked quite well for him.
Speaker 1 (21:12):
And this is a very very compelling book because you
have access to very, very compelling people. I mean, that's
probably the most especially when we start thinking about who
we're going to pick in twenty twenty eight, you sit
down with all of them, Rubio, all the key players.
What in a pursuit of common sense or in a
(21:32):
pursuit of understanding what this administration is accomplished.
Speaker 8 (21:37):
I wanted to understand President Trump's leadership and management style.
And I told him in February when I pitched him
on the book that I thought one hundred people would
write books to grind accees and to just you know,
kind of crap on them because that's what they do.
But I'm someone look, I want to understand. I support him.
You know, I'm a Republican, and you know, as you
know on CNN, I've been defensive of him when I
(21:58):
think he's come under unfair tac which is almost on
a daily basis.
Speaker 2 (22:02):
But I think someone who likes.
Speaker 8 (22:04):
Him and wants him to succeed should get a chance
to understand how this all works. And so in pursuit
of that, I talked to the President. I was in
the Oval Office, I flew on Air Force one. I
interviewed Marco Rubio, Scott Bess and Elon musk Leezeld and
the EPA administrator Doug Bergham at Interior, some of his
political advisors. And I came away, I think, with a
pretty good understanding of how he manages the government, but
(22:26):
also of Donald Trump the person.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
I learned a lot about Trump.
Speaker 8 (22:30):
I hadn't spent really any time with him personally at
all until I wrote this book, but honestly, I learned
a lot about him personally, and truthfully, I feel a
lot closer to him today than I think I ever have,
because I got a sense of who Donald Trump is
behind the scenes, and I think the caricature that is
portrayed in the media is not at all what you
get with Donald Trump.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
And that's what Bill Maher walked away with right that
same impression. Scott Jennings, senior political contributor for CNN, author
of the new book A Revolution of Common Sense. When
you spend time with the President, what was different about him?
Like what exceeded all your expectations and what actually shocked
you that was different than what you thought, Because I
(23:10):
think everybody that meets him says, you know, Bill Martin
described it as this is his persona, this is you know,
the reality TV charactery place. But when you're alone with him,
very personable, very warm, very on point. What did you
take away?
Speaker 2 (23:27):
So personally I found the same thing. Very warm.
Speaker 8 (23:29):
He's sort of hospitality minded, you know, he's constantly soliciting people,
you know, do you need something to drink? When I
went with him to Michigan, he said, do you want
my hat? He like literally was trying to give me
the hat off his head, and I said, you know,
I don't, but I know someone who does, and it's
my dad, Because my dad was the first person to
ever tell me you were going to be the president.
And he said, oh, sounds like a smart guy. And
(23:51):
he takes a hat off and signs it and hands.
Speaker 2 (23:54):
It to me.
Speaker 8 (23:55):
But he was very solicitous of people. And also he's
very engaging. You know, he'll get in a room and
there's all kinds of different people with different reasons for
being there, but he'll engage everyone in a conversation. He's
actually an active listener. He solicits people's opinions. He listens
to debates back and forth among his advisors. But then
he's also quite decisive, and I think this is different
(24:17):
than Biden, who was famously indecisive. Trump is decisive, but
he does absorb a lot of information by listening to
people kind of hash it out right in front of him.
Speaker 2 (24:26):
He asks good questions.
Speaker 8 (24:28):
He does have opinions, but you can't influence him when
he's listening to these debates. And I watched him kind
of do this with his advisors. But you know, once
the decision is made, once the boss has made the decision.
The thing about his team is everybody salutes and moves forward,
and I think that's one of the reasons they've been
able to.
Speaker 2 (24:46):
Move so quickly.
Speaker 8 (24:47):
He's got a team in place that truly matches his
management style. And there's really nobody in here who isn't
willing to execute on the president's agenda. They put their
own views aside. Once the president makes a decision, they
go and execute. We have so little time, and I
have so much I want to talk to you about.
I come from a biblical perspective, so that really guides
(25:07):
my policy views. But then I'm a great student of history,
great student of policies, and that's how I arrived. So
I kind of became and I was very influenced by
the Reagan administration, obviously because of my age.
Speaker 1 (25:18):
So like you who worked for George W. Bush, I
was a Bush fan. There were things I disagreed with
immigration issues that I had some of the war issues.
But you know, the journey to Trump has been so different,
and I think i'd be interested to know how your
take is. Barack Obama was all style, no substance. Joe
(25:39):
Biden was no substance or style. Donald Trump is all substance,
and sometimes his style is controversial. Where do you put
him in recent history with presidents, And what do you
think his legacy will be.
Speaker 8 (25:50):
Well, I think it's the greatest political comeback in modern
American political history.
Speaker 2 (25:54):
That's number one.
Speaker 8 (25:55):
Number Two, I think replacing him, well, somebody has to
replace him.
Speaker 2 (25:59):
At nobody can replicate him.
Speaker 8 (26:02):
And number three, look, I think he and I told
him this in February. I thought he revolutionized political campaigning
and I thought he was about to revolutionize governing. I
think it's the most active presidency frankly since FDR, certainly
the most active presidency in modern American history. I think
part of the strategy was I'm going to put so
much in the water here that I'm going to overwhelm
(26:24):
the opposition. I'm going to show up and I'm going
to I know that I've got Democrats against me, the media,
and the entrench federal bureaucracy. My only choice to fight
back is to overwhelm it. And that's frankly what he did.
In the first hundred days. They didn't know what to do.
He puts so much out there that they did not
know what to do, and it really worked to his benefit.
But it's an active presidency, and I think the next
(26:46):
president you'll never replicate Donald Trump, but some of the
lessons here are. You know, you don't have to obey
old arrangements. The worst thing you can tell Donald Trump
is well, we've never done it that way before. He
does not respect that phrase, and I don't think the
next president will either. That'll be an enduring legacy here
of him. Just the active use of the presidency. If
(27:07):
you're not willing to be hemmed in by the way
somebody did it twenty years ago, you can operate quite
freely in the office of the president.
Speaker 1 (27:14):
The book is called The Revolution of Common Sense. CNN
senior political contributor is joining us Scott Jennings Scott Trump
derangement syndrome.
Speaker 8 (27:24):
Does this go away after Trump's gone? Well, it'll never
go away. But what will happen is it will morph
into this. Whoever we nominate next, whether it's Vance or anybody,
the construct will be, oh, you know, this is actually
worse than Trump. So it'll be like worse than Trump
derangement syndrome. Everything that Vance or Rubio or whoever does next.
The next iteration is, oh, this boy, well this is
(27:47):
worse than Trump. I look, I worked for George W.
Bush I'm old enough to remember when they called him anots.
Speaker 2 (27:52):
When they said he was racist, when they said he.
Speaker 8 (27:55):
Was an authoritarian war criminal that needed to be thrown
you know, in the Hague somewhere. Now you have Democrats saying, oh,
ohver the days of George W.
Speaker 2 (28:04):
Bush.
Speaker 8 (28:04):
You know, they'll do the same thing to Trump. The
next person, by definition, will have to be worse than Trump.
Speaker 2 (28:10):
It's the only thing they know how to do.
Speaker 8 (28:13):
Call you a Nazi today and then call your success
or worse than you tomorrow. It's the only thing Democrats
know how to do. I've been living with it for
twenty five years.
Speaker 1 (28:20):
Oh and you've been living it on set on CNN.
All right. So if the Democrats have problems, they have
a civil war the socialist and I think there's an
Islamist element in there too, Socialist Islamist, and they'll start
fighting amongst themselves. One wants to use the Democrat party
to get to socialism, One authentically wants to use socialism
to get to an Islamis state. That'll all play out.
(28:41):
That's like a parasite, and when it kills the host,
it dies with it. So I don't know what the
future the Democrat Party is. But do are Republicans have
bit blindsided? Could there be a big establishment versus Trumpism battle,
or is there a smooth handoff to trump Ism because
these wins have not been Republican, they've been Orange. Trump is.
Speaker 8 (29:01):
Yeah, it's an interesting question about what happens next to
both parties. I mean, I think Trump has changed the
coalition of the Republican Party. But it is the nature
of presidential campaigns and presidencies to be unique. I mean,
who replaced Barack Obama? For the Democrats, who replaced Bill Clinton?
You know who replaced George W.
Speaker 1 (29:19):
Bush.
Speaker 8 (29:19):
When you are a two term president, you know a
lot of what you build is unique to you. So
we'll see how Jade Vance, if he's the nominee, what
kind of imprint he wants to put on the party.
I think he may have some different policy views than
Donald Trump, and that may change the coalition. On the
Democratic side. I think it's clear all the energy in
their party is with the socialist wing. Bernie Sanders is
(29:40):
the intellectual godfather, AOC is kind of the head of
it operationally, and you look at Mom Donnie, who's now
the most popular Democrat in the country. It's all this
strain of energetic socialism, people who think America is rotten
at its core and that it needs to be ripped out,
root and branch and replaced with something.
Speaker 2 (29:58):
Very, very different.
Speaker 8 (29:59):
I'll be shocked, shocked if they don't nominate someone in
twenty eight who isn't more from the socialist winging Well.
Speaker 1 (30:04):
It seems like Bernie has all but handed the torch
to AOC. Everybody's anticipating her running for the Senate and
getting rid of Chucky. I think she's running for president.
I think she'll be an early leader. I agree with you.
Speaker 8 (30:15):
I think I think you have the ambitious political wing
led by Newsom. But the true energy, the true energy
of the left right now is with AOC and the socialists.
And look there, look at look at the polling. You
have more Democrats who think better of socialism than they
do of capitalism.
Speaker 2 (30:31):
That's where their hearts are.
Speaker 8 (30:33):
And that you know, the establishment Democrats fought this off
in sixteen, and they fought it off again in twenty
twenty in their nominating contest. But I don't think they'll
be able to fight it off in twenty twenty.
Speaker 1 (30:45):
Oh to be Lelly King and have Scott Jennings for
the full lawa but I don't have that so closing moments.
We're huge fans of yours. I love I kind of
view you. Everybody was a little over the top, but
I mean everybody kind of discovered Charlie Kirk. You've kind
of lived that legacy media. You're behind enemy lines every
day with four people, five people coming at you, a
(31:05):
lot of the major you know, political operatives, and you
just do amazing. That makes you like a Charlie Kirk
in the media. What's next for you and what do
you enjoy more? Because I love you right where you're at,
and I'm wondering how that compares to like your new
radio show, which is what I'm kind of stuck in.
I would love to go behind enemy lines and win
(31:27):
hearts and minds or stand up for the truth. I
remember when Elizabeth Hasselbeck was in that situation on the view.
It's a lot of weight you carry and you shine
at your best. What's the future look like for you?
Speaker 8 (31:38):
Well, I'm quite happy with my life and I'm quite
pleased with CNN. They've given me a great platform, and
I think this debating show that we do they deserve
great credit. Most cable is just six people sitting around
agreeing with each exactly. We're actually having debates. And everywhere
I go out here one of two things. I love
you and I love the debates, or I don't like you,
but I love the debates. People like debates. I can't
(31:59):
believe they're aren't more debating shows on. But I think
I was put on this earth to debate and maybe
be a pilgrim in an unholy land.
Speaker 2 (32:06):
So that what I'm going to keep doing for the
time being.
Speaker 1 (32:08):
And what about office out of it? What about office seas?
Speaker 2 (32:12):
We'll see. I just turned forty eight. I got time
on that.
Speaker 1 (32:15):
I agree, Scott. I think the book is tremendous access
to all the people that are leading our country right
now and all the people that our country, half of
our country caught the matrix is revolting against and I
think buried in the midst of that is our way out,
which is this document two hundred and fifty years ago
that we're about to celebrate a birthday, had a whole
(32:35):
lot of common sense, and maybe the revolution has begun,
a revolution of common sense. Scott Jennings, A book we
encourage everyone to get. Thank you so much for your time.
Speaker 2 (32:43):
Appreciate this honored by the conversation.
Speaker 1 (32:45):
Thank you sir, and we are going to have Scott
back a lot. Look forward to that.
Speaker 2 (32:49):
Well.

History shows that every market falls, every currency can collapse.
Today the dollar is shrinking, We're trillions thirty seven trillion
in debt, record high markets, defying gravity. But stocks can't
go up forever. Meanwhile, groceries, housing, transportation costs, they're all
rising in our dollar. It's buying less every day. And
(33:09):
if a crash hits, your stocks won't save you. Dollars
won't either. One thing will. Gold. Gold has always survived.
That's why central banks are buying gold by the ton.

Today, It's Your Morning Show with Michael del Chorno.
Speaker 1 (34:04):
What's the old saying, First they mock you, then they
discredit you, then they fight you, then you win. That's
kind of how it was with Bobby Bobby Kennedy. Language
on the CDC website they use to state that vaccines
do not cause autism appears to have changed.
Speaker 4 (34:23):
It now states that the claim vaccines do not cause
autism is not an evidence based claim because studies have
not ruled out the possibility that infant vaccines cause autism.
Speaker 1 (34:34):
Page also says that the.
Speaker 4 (34:35):
HHS has launched a comprehensive assessment of the causes of autism.
The Autism Science Foundation said in a statement that the
change is anti vaccine rhetoric and outright lies about vaccines
and autism.
Speaker 1 (34:48):
By Mark Mayfield, the cost of a large Thanksgiving dinner
is down five percent.
Speaker 9 (34:52):
The American Farm Bureau Federation says the cost of the
holiday meal dropped after retail is implemented a sixteen percent
decrease in the price of his sixteen pound turkey. In
a statement, the Farm Bureau said, while the wholesale price
for fresh turkey is up from twenty twenty four, grocery
stores are featuring Thanksgiving deals and are attempting to draw
consumer demand back to turkey. That's leading to lower retail
(35:13):
prices for the holiday bird. I'm Tammy Trichillo.
Speaker 1 (35:16):
US automakers would soon be required to use female like
crash dummies to test vehicle safety.
Speaker 6 (35:22):
Right now, most safety systems are tested only with male
like test dummies, even though women face higher injury rates
in certain types of crashes. A National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration has unveiled an advanced female crash test dummy. Officials
say it has more than one hundred and fifty centers
and can collect three times more injury data than the
(35:43):
current models. Automakers can begin purchasing these dummies now, ahead
of a federal rule that will require crash data specific
to female occupants.
Speaker 1 (35:51):
You could learn a lot from a dummy. I'm Jim.
That's your top five stories the day.
