Speaker 1 (00:00):
Let's pick up where we were on a question that
was brought up. You're going to hear the audio from
a commercial from Donald Trump in his campaign which was
airing last month, and it's about Kamala Harris talking about
taxpayer funded gender transition surgeries for criminals and illegal aliens.
(00:21):
And then Brett Bayer is going to propose or pose
a question here to Kamala about that. But it's going
to start with this ad, and then we'll get to
the question.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
Every transgender the inmate in the prison system would have access.
Speaker 3 (00:35):
So are you still in support of using taxpayer dollars
to help prison inmates or detained illegal aliens to transition
to another gender.
Speaker 2 (00:43):
I will follow the law, and it's a law that
Donald Trump actually followed you're probably familiar with.
Speaker 4 (00:50):
Now.
Speaker 2 (00:50):
It's a public report that under Donald Trump's administration, these
surgeries were available to on a medical necessity basis to
people in the federal prison system. And I think, frankly,
that ad from the Trump campaign is a little bit
of like throwing, you know, stones when you're live in
a glasshouse.
Speaker 3 (01:10):
The Trump aids say that he never advocated for that
prison policy and no gender transition well responsible.
Speaker 4 (01:17):
For what happened in your administration.
Speaker 3 (01:19):
Yeah, no surgery has happened in this pregnacy. Would you
still advocate for using task pay of dollars for gender reassignment?
Speaker 2 (01:26):
I will follow the law just as you think Trump
would say he did.
Speaker 4 (01:30):
You would have to say, as president, like.
Speaker 2 (01:32):
I said, I think it's real he spent twenty million
dollars on those ads trying to create a sense of
fear in the voters because he actually has no plan
in this election that is about focusing on the needs
of the American people.
Speaker 1 (01:47):
So that's Kama talking about the gender assignment surgery. And
we have different people that say, you know, stuff that
we can't go in fact check. But we can't fact
check whether or not this was happening now. The gender
affirming Care was president during Trump's administration. However, everyone in
the Trump administration or the aids to Donald Trump and
(02:09):
his campaign currently say that none of those surgeries actually
were performed in the entire country during his administration. It's
a complex issue, I guess to talk about. Even though
it seems pretty obvious that hey, you know what tax
payer money to something like that. Who thinks that's a
good idea Joe of Han's anybody anybody in the room.
(02:30):
If you're wondering about Kamala Harrison the way that she
views her relationship with Joe Biden's presidency, well, that actually
was also brought up when Kamala basically wanted to make
it pretty obvious as to how alike she and Joe
Biden are and how alike their presidencies would be.
Speaker 3 (02:50):
You're not Joe Biden, You're not Donald Trump, but nothing
comes to mind that you would do differently.
Speaker 4 (02:54):
Let me be very clear.
Speaker 2 (02:56):
My presidency will not be a continuation of Joe Biden's
presidents And like every new president that comes in to office,
I will bring my life experiences, my professional experiences, and
fresh and new ideas.
Speaker 4 (03:10):
I represent a new generation of leadership.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
Huh interesting, Well, Matt, and maybe maybe you can help
me out with this. Well, she doesn't look like Joe Biden,
she's not Joe Biden's age, she doesn't talk like Joe Biden,
but she was his vice president. Now we've seen this
picture before. How many vice presidents then took and assumed
the presidency after the president that they were serving under
(03:35):
pop quiz I would guess five. Well, there's a lot
more than that seventeen. It's probably closer to like twelve
or something. I don't have it in front of me.
But John Adams was the vice president for George Washington.
Now this is before political parties. The guy who finished
second was generally the guy so the founding fathers, and
(03:56):
Jefferson was under Adams. Most of those presidencies don't even
kind of resemble them each other, Like go back and
read about John adams presidency versus what happened under Washington
and also what happened under Jefferson. They don't even look
close to the same. But remember the rules weren't you
have a running mate. The rules were guy wins, guy
who finished a second is the vice president. That was
(04:17):
the answer at the time of like, hey, we don't
want political factions to be forming, we want everybody to
be working together.
Speaker 5 (04:24):
Guess how well that worked. Not great.
Speaker 1 (04:27):
They eventually formed political parties and had running mates anyway,
and it wasn't that long after that that they were
doing that. The next guy that I think would be
important is John Tyler. John Tyler took over from the
immortal William Henry Harrison, and he's immortal because he's incredibly mortal.
In fact, he died thirty days after he took the
oath of office because he got pneumonia from doing too
(04:49):
long of a inauguration speech in a driving rain in Washington, DC.
Speaker 5 (04:53):
He forgot his jacket. Bad bad plan.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
William and port tipeic can New didn't really have much
much of anything that he could do in the presidency.
But literally, because he didn't do much, he's not generally
considered the worst president ever because he didn't really have
a chance to do any harm or damage. John Tyler,
on the other hand, literally did quite nothing while he
was in there, and he served the better part of
the entire four year term before he was replaced by
(05:17):
James K. Polk, an actual, you know, legitimate president that
actually did get stuff done. So those are a few
early ones. More of the recent ones. Let's go post
Abraham Lincoln. He gets assassinated. His vice president of the
New Union Party or whatever he was calling it at
the time, was a Democrat by the name of Andrew Johnson, who,
by the way, happened to get impeached while he was
(05:38):
in office, first guy ever to do that. Then, you know,
you go back and forth. You know, it's really only
people who took the baton was from deaths that happened
Chester Allen Arthur. You can go and fast forward to
somebody like Lyndon B.
Speaker 5 (05:53):
Johnson.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
They generally had legacies of their own, but most of
the time it wasn't the kind of legacy that they'd
be looking for. William Howard Taft got the handoff from
Teddy Roosevelt. Look how good that did within four years.
Teddy's like, I'm forming an entirely new party called the
Bull Moose Party, the Progressive Party, and I'm gonna take
out my old pal because he sucks at this president's stuff.
(06:16):
George H. W. Bush probably gets a bad rap, but
he took the baton from Ronald Reagan. Presidency was nothing alike.
Things change, situations change, and unfortunately for some political parties,
they've had to eat some of that. All I'm saying
is there's a chance she's very different, but there's a
chance that she's very similar as well. Only time is
gonna tell, but history shows us that vice presidents generally
(06:38):
have been very different than their predecessors once they actually
got into power three p.
Speaker 5 (06:43):
Forty nine. We'll come back with more here on News
Radio eleven to ten kfab and.
Speaker 4 (06:46):
They's song on news radio eleven ten kfab.
Speaker 1 (06:51):
Kama is like, Hey, I'm not Joe Biden. I'm not
gonna be doing Joe Biden. Well, Brett Bayer is just like, well, look,
Joe Biden was around you like every day for like
three and a half years. You never once decided like, hey,
by the way, this guy probably a little too old
to be running for another four year term. Well let's
see what she has to say about that.
Speaker 4 (07:08):
Right, Joe Biden is not on the ballot. I understand
Donald Trump, Donald Trump, we can't talk about it.
Speaker 3 (07:14):
And Donald George Clooney so within a few minutes of
talking to President Biden at a fundraiser that he thought this
was not the same Joe Biden that we saw on
the debate stage.
Speaker 4 (07:23):
Jus is on the ballot.
Speaker 3 (07:24):
I understand you met with him at least once a
week for three and a half years. You didn't have
any concerns.
Speaker 2 (07:32):
I think the American people have a concern about Donald Trump,
which is why the people who know him best, including
leaders of our national security community, have all spoken out.
Even people who worked for him in the Oval Office,
worked with him in the situation room and have said
he is unfit and dangerous and should never be president
(07:56):
of the United States again, including his former vice president,
which is why the job was open for him to
choose another running mate.
Speaker 4 (08:07):
So that is a fact. That is a fact.
Speaker 1 (08:12):
Wow, Okay, Tom, I'll appreciate that. We're never gonna get
an answer to that question, are we. Nobody's ever going to
like just be like, yeah, oh well, you know, we
just we saw him decline. We just didn't want to
say anything, but yeah.
Speaker 5 (08:22):
Because I think the answer would be, well, we at
the time didn't know if it was perceptive and you know,
people would pick up on it enough. Can we can
we conceal it? Basically they felt comfortable that they could
until that debate. Well, yeah, exactly.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
But this is the other thing too, is that when
you're seeing it every single day, like that happened slowly
over time, when we're seeing it and just in you know,
small spurts every couple of weeks, we're just like, wait
a second, this guy does not look right. It says not,
this doesn't look It's easier for us to pick it up.
You know, God, bless my late dog Jagger. Jagger got
worse and progressively less weight. He lost weight over probably
(08:58):
a period of two or three months, and we didn't
really pick up on how like how much that had
affected him because we were seeing him every day. Our
vet saw him before we had to put him down,
and almost fell over when he saw him, just like,
holy cow, this dog is in terrible shape, Like he
cannot keep living like this. Okay, that was a mistake
that we made with our dog, right, I'm sure it
(09:21):
can happen with a human too, And I'm not trying
to give them excuses here. They need to answer the
darn question. If they could just tell us that, if
they could just say, hey, yeah, sorry, we didn't notice
it was that bad. Until you know, people from outside
that don't see him every day, we're like, whoa, this
guy is not the same guy. Maybe we should just
admit to doing that. If you could just say that,
(09:42):
I think we'd have a lot more respect for the process.
Then you guys just trying to string him along and
act like we're stupid and not seeing things the right way.
And then all of a sudden, oh yeah, by the way,
he's not going to run for president again.
Speaker 5 (09:53):
But I think that the feedback that you would get
and that scenario of why never to do that is
from a pr standpoint, there is absolutely no way to
answer that honestly. And then it also looked positively on you,
So you just can't answer it. You have to deflect.
You have to bring up the that Donald Trump your
side looks at as the enemy and reinforce that.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
Well, yeah, and then reinforce it in the same way
they're like, he's not fit for president. Donald Trump isn't
fit for president and should never serve as president of
the United States. Again, it's like, well that he was
never even brought up there, But that's just politics one O.
One is we can't shift that conversation. We can't answer
that honestly in a way that we can just be like, Okay,
(10:33):
you know what, we screwed that up. That was our bad,
but you know what, we're not going to make that
mistake again. And this is why the next four years
could be better under us is because we know we
don't have a mental decline problem with this administration.
Speaker 5 (10:49):
You know what, Actually that's pretty clever. Say hey, look
look what he did and he was cognive, cognitively declining.
Speaker 1 (10:56):
Imagine what we could do if we we you know,
you have two people at are in Zombia and then
she does a chick flip and wins the gen Z vote.
Speaker 6 (11:03):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (11:03):
See, there's a way to do it gracefully and answer
this question. Say that you messed up and you can
take responsibility for that somehow as a whole. It's not
just her fault. It's a lot of people's faults. We'll
have more. Kamala Harris on Fox News yesterday. Coming up
here on news Radio eleven ten, kfab I'm gonna crack
something open. I'm gonna make let you guess what I'm drinking.
By the sound of the can.
Speaker 5 (11:25):
Mmmmm hmmm.
Speaker 7 (11:26):
What is it?
Speaker 5 (11:26):
Sounded like an RC Cola to me. Oh, come on,
I wouldn't be caught dead. Now there goes that endorsement anyway. No,
it's a mountain z VA of course.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
All right.
Speaker 5 (11:36):
Cheers to you, Cheers to you, cheers to yours, and
cheers to mine.
Speaker 4 (11:42):
Ah.
Speaker 5 (11:42):
Yeah, that's good.
Speaker 1 (11:45):
The Yankees and Guardians just started Game three of the
American League Championship Series. So the little afternoon baseball going on.
Yankee is a two nothing series lead. I'm trying to
not get too panicked about the Yankees and Dodgers meeting
in the World Series.
Speaker 5 (11:59):
Would call it an afternoon delight.
Speaker 1 (12:02):
No, No, I feel like that references to a song
that means something incredibly different than a baseball game. Oh
really yeah, And I would not listen to listen to
that around the kiddos and have them ask you what
that means.
Speaker 5 (12:17):
Anyway. So that's going on. Get the more sporting events.
Is good Thursday for sports.
Speaker 1 (12:23):
Yesterday it was a good afternoon for some politics. Kamala
Harris did an actual interview with somebody who wasn't going
to give her softballs. Brett Bayer from Fox News pick
up where we left off. We've been talking about this
on and off throughout the entirety of the day, which
people can find where Matt, because we do save our
conversations for you to go find.
Speaker 5 (12:43):
We do. We save them for posterity reasons and for
my posture. But that doesn't have anything. It just sounds
like posterity. That's why I said it. Okay, you go
to kfab dot com and then you click on there's
this icon on the top left corner of the page,
and you find your name and my name Emery Songer,
(13:04):

automatically download, make a lot easier for you to listen
to what we got going on. So, Kamala Harris, this
is the last clip I wanted to play here because
(14:25):
this is about her relationship with the Donald Trump rhetoric
we talked about after the assassination attempt in Pennsylvania, which is,
you know, a couple of months ago, but it's, gosh,
that's three.
Speaker 5 (14:35):
Months ago now now that I think about it, it
was that was July.
Speaker 1 (14:39):
Geez, but you know, changing the tone of our conversations
a little bit.
Speaker 5 (14:44):
Now.
Speaker 1 (14:44):
I don't know if that's necessarily happened all that much,
but it was brought up to Kamala with this conversation
on Fox News with Brett Baher. Here's Kamala and Rhett
Bayer talking about political rhetoric.
Speaker 3 (14:56):
If he's as bad as you say, that half of
this country is now supporting this person who could be
the forty seventh president of the United States. Why is
that happening?
Speaker 2 (15:06):
This is a little election for president of the United States.
It's not supposed to be easy. I know, but it's
not supposed to be It is not supposed to be sure.
Speaker 4 (15:16):
Are they misguided? Are they stupid?
Speaker 7 (15:19):
What?
Speaker 4 (15:19):
I would never say that about the American people.
Speaker 2 (15:22):
And in fact, if you listen to Donald Trump, if
you watch any of his rallies, he's the one who
tends to demean and belittle and diminish the American people.
Speaker 4 (15:32):
He's the one who talks about.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
An enemy within, an enemy within, talking about the American people,
suggesting he would turn the American military on the American people.
Speaker 3 (15:44):
We asked that question to the former president. Today, Harris
Faulkner had a town hall and this is how he responded.
Speaker 6 (15:52):
I heard about that they were saying, I was like threatening,
I'm not threatening anybody. They're the ones doing the threatening.
They do phony investingations. I've been investigated more than Alphonse Capone.
Speaker 4 (16:03):
He was the greatest action.
Speaker 6 (16:04):
No, it's true, we don't been thinking it. It's called
weaponization of government is.
Speaker 4 (16:08):
A terrible thing.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
So but I'm sorry, and with all due respect, that
clip was not what he has been saying about the
enemy within that he has repeated when he's speaking about
the American people.
Speaker 4 (16:21):
That's not what you just showed, he was asking. No, No,
that's not what you just showed. In all fairness and.
Speaker 2 (16:26):
Respect to you, the question that we asked him, he
didn't show that. And here's the bottom line. He has
repeated it many times. And you and I both know that.
And you and I both know that. He has talked
about turning the American military on the American people. He
has talked about going after people who are engaged in
peaceful protests. He has talked about locking people up because
(16:48):
they disagree with him. This is a democracy and an
inner democracy. The president of the United States, in the
United States of America should be willing to be able
to handle criticism without saying he'd lock people up for
doing it. And this is what is at stake, which
is why you have someone like the former chairman of
(17:10):
the Joint Chiefs of Staff saying what Mark Milly has
said about Donald Trump being a threat to the United
States of America.
Speaker 4 (17:20):
He's quoted in the bub Woodward book that way.
Speaker 1 (17:22):
Yes, Okay, so there's that conversation. Donald Trump has had
this issue that has kind of plagued him for the
better part of the last nine years since he's been
in the mix. Politically, it's people like Democrats or anybody
who opposes his viewpoints basically saying exactly what Kamalas said
(17:46):
in just different ways. Oh, this guy is a threat.
He's always talking about locking people up, and he's I
haven't heard specific threats about getting the American military involved
to go after American citizens who disagree with him. I
do think that there needs to be some level of Hey,
by the way, because you don't win the election, we
need to have an understanding that there's not going to
(18:07):
be violence in this country. There shouldn't be either side.
At the same time, this is exactly what we would
expect from somebody like Kamala Harris, who ratchets this thing
back up to say, you should be afraid of my opponent,
you should be afraid of Donald Trump. And that's just
a darn shame that we're back to talking about how
we are using fear and turning it on to the
(18:30):
American people and saying, if you are afraid of what
could happen under this person, vote for me, not talking
about our own policies, not talking about the changes we
can make. The bottom line eventually is just be afraid
of what the other side is going to do. And
I dislike that greatly. Got a couple of things about
Donald Trump as well coming up here when it come back.
He actually yesterday did a town hall on Univision Spanish
(18:53):
speaking network. Kamala Harris did one of these two. It
wasn't a whole lot to write home about. But Donald
Trump had a couple of moments here that are making
the rounds on social media, and in the sake of
fairness and complete transparency, that's what I'm here for. Well,
revisit a couple of those clips as well, So stick
around on news radio eleven ten kfab.
Speaker 4 (19:10):
Em Resunger on news radio eleven ten kfab.
Speaker 1 (19:16):
Kind of your fault too, Matt. I mean, you're my producer.
You could be pushed me to the break earlier.
Speaker 5 (19:21):
It's true. I could have thrown up the break signs
back here. That would have been unlike. That's I just
usually don't need that much time at the bottom of
the hour, and I didn't get I don't give myself
enough time at the bottom, you know, I don't know
do I need.
Speaker 1 (19:36):
Do you think I need to get balanced a little bit?
More like it? Sometimes I'm just too free flowing with
our segs, you know what I mean?
Speaker 5 (19:43):
Balance the time? You mean, Yeah, maybe I'm doing a
bad job on that. I'll have to go do read
a book or so about you know, like how that affects,
you know, audience interest or my grades. The radio teacher
that great, it's my show every day. Yeah, when she
when is she back in town?
Speaker 1 (20:04):
I don't know she's She reminds me of the teacher
in Charlie Brown. You can't understand the darn thing she's saying. Yeah, anyway,
I'll spend this time instead talking about football in baseball.
Speaker 5 (20:21):
Just quickly.
Speaker 1 (20:22):
Tonight we got a couple of college games six pm.
Georgia State at Marshall. This one it matters absolutely not
at all to anyone except for maybe Marshall trying to
achieve both eligibility. Marshall's a nine and a half point favorite.
If you wanted to fly to Huntington, West Virginia and
watch this thing, by the way, seven dollars. You can
get tickets for seven bucks. Oh not the flight though,
(20:45):
Oh no, no, you'd have to go. You have to
find it direct flight to Huntington, hunting Huntington, Huntington, West Virginia, Huntington,
West Virginia. How many flights would it take to get there?
You have to take a barge.
Speaker 5 (20:57):
I have no idea where Huntington is. I know where
Marshall is. There's movie about it because the tragic thing
happened to them in the seventies. Yeah, so anyway, six
thirty tonight, Boston College four and two, a pretty fun
team to watch, to be honest with you. At Virginia Tech,
who's three and three? These teams trying to fight towards
the top of the ACC get themselves positioned for potentially
(21:17):
a Bowl game as well. Where's the line is it?
Is it in Boston? Nope, Virginia Tech at Blacksburg. They're
going to be playing the ac DC as these guys
come out. Oh right, I'll say probably Virginia Tech by
a field goal. It's Virginia Tech actually bout eight and
a half. What are they seeing? That's crazy? That's crazy
(21:40):
talk And give me BC all day. NFL game tonight
Bronco's at Saints. Why is this game significant? Well, they
said it in the Little Sports Update there. Sean Payton
is back after leaving.
Speaker 1 (21:55):
Sean Payton left the Saints after a long tenure there.
Won a Super Bowl with the team that was well
known as the Aints for many a decade. Drew Brees
and him had a great relationship. Sean got back into
coaching before last year with the Denver Broncos. That hasn't
necessarily gone as well as you'd think. But Broncos three
and three Saints two and four at home. Sounds like
(22:17):
Spencer Rattler again for the Saints tonight, getting the start
for the injured Derek Carr and the Broncos still rolling
with Bo Nicks, who's been up and down as a rookie.
Speaker 5 (22:28):
Where's the line? Hmmm, Well that's tough. Saints have lost
four in a row, for whatever that's worth. Four in
a row, but it's in the Super Dume. But how
could you favor I'm losing four in a row and
you got your backup quarterback in there. I don't know.
Maybe I guess I'd probably say Broncos by a field goal.
Speaker 1 (22:46):
Ding ding ding, ding Ding, Denver, buy a field goal. Congratulations.
By the way, the over under thirty seven and a half.
It is a low number for an NFL game, Low low,
low number. Anyway, that's the football games and of course
the baseball game. Tonight, we're excited about to watch a
baseball Guardians hosting the Yankees in Cleveland. Right now, Guardians
have a couple of runners on in the first inning,
(23:06):
that's just underway. Guardians desperately need to win. They trail
the Yankees to nothing. Pretty much a must win game
here in Game three, City Field tonight in Queens, New York,
Mets hosting the Dodgers. Dodgers have a two to one
series lead after another drubbing shutout last night by the Dodgers.
They've won both of the games that they've won of
this series by shutouts. So the Mets need an answer
(23:29):
tonight and we'll see if they can get one. The
ace you're Aamamoto is going to take the bump for
the Dodgers. It is four twenty seven. That's your little
mini Emory sports update. When we come back, we're going
to talk Donald Trump. Donald Trump was on Univision a
couple of things that were pretty interesting. But before we
(23:50):
do that, we got some tickets to give away.
Speaker 5 (23:54):
Bruce Crawford, our buddy Bruce Crawford is doing a charity
screening of an American Werewolf in London. That's next Friday
at seven o'clock at the Omaha Community Playhouse. Got a
pair of tickets to give away right now, Hey, Matt,
guess what we need a number? What's a good number?
What is a good number? Well?
Speaker 1 (24:08):
Oh, I got one, I got one. The last time
the Yankees won the World Series was what year was it?
Speaker 5 (24:13):
In the nineties? No, the two thousand, Yes, I don't know,
like two thousand and seven. It's two thousand and nine. Okay,

Share it with someone you you want to know something
you know? You want to know what I think about
all this? What do you think about all this?
Speaker 1 (25:20):
I think it's good. We're showing that we have quite
a big footprint here on this. I had a guy
from Finland once say that he could hear the me
on a radio show. I can't remember which station I
was on, but he was.
Speaker 5 (25:32):
He picked up. He's got like a wave catcher or
something in Finland. Like he's a big radio enthusiast and
somehow picked he picks up like international radio stations all
the time. Isn't that crazy? That is I would have
never imagined. Yeah, from from where you were I'm assuming
it was maybe working in Iowa. Yeah, but that so
that little radio wave worked its way all the way
(25:55):
across America and across the ocean. I know that radio
wave do great bouncing on bodies of water, correct, But
the fact that it could work its way, I mean,
I don't know Finland to Finland, it's not even like
I mean, that's that's in a bit. When you get
up to Scandinavia, I mean that's it borders Russia. So yeah,
there you go. Anyway back to what we were talking about.
(26:17):
Donald Trump was on Univision last night. He was doing
a town hall and was asked a couple of different questions.
One that really is making the rounds out of the
sake of fairness. This is what I do, Ladies and gentlemen.
I'm not here to give you one hundred percent all
just my own personal opinions. I'm here to tell you
information and let you come to your own personal conclusions.
There was a voter.
Speaker 1 (26:37):
These are American citizens who are Spanish speakers first, but
many of them can speak English, and in some cases
they do. And in this case, there was a man
who spoke English here and had a story I think
is pretty familiar to people who used to consider themselves
pretty staunch Republicans. More Mitt Romney, John McCain style Republicans
pre Donald Trump. Here is a man on Union asking
(27:00):
Donald Trump a very interesting question last night.
Speaker 5 (27:03):
I am a Republican no longer registered.
Speaker 4 (27:06):
Though.
Speaker 8 (27:08):
I want to give you the opportunity to try to
win back my vote. Okay, your action and maybe in
action during your presidency and the last few years sort of, you.
Speaker 4 (27:23):
Know, was a little disturbing to me.
Speaker 8 (27:25):
You know, what happened during January sixth, and the fact
that you know, you waited so long to take action
while your supporters were attacking the capitol coronavirus. I thought
we were the public was misled during coronavirus and that morning,
and many more lives could have been saved if we
(27:46):
would have been informed better. And also people in your
administration who don't support you. I'm curious how people so
close to you and your administration no longer want to
support you.
Speaker 5 (27:59):
So why would I want to for you? If you
would answer these.
Speaker 8 (28:02):
Questions for me, I would really appreciate it and give
you the opportunity this. You know, your own vice president
doesn't want to support you now.
Speaker 4 (28:08):
Thank you, Ramido.
Speaker 6 (28:10):
So the people that don't support a very small portion.
We have a tremendous about ninety seven percent of the
people in the administration support me. But because it's me,
somebody doesn't support, they get a little publicity. The vice president,
I disagree with him on what he did. I totally
disagreed with him on what he did. Very importantly, you
(28:31):
had hundreds of thousands of people come to Washington. They
didn't come because of me. They came because of the election.
They thought the election was a rigged election, and that's
why they came. Some of those people went down to
the capital. I said, peacefully and patriotically, nothing done wrong
at all, nothing done wrong, and action was taken, strong action.
(28:52):
Ashley Babbitt was killed. Nobody was killed. There were no
guns down there. We didn't have guns. The others had guns,
but we didn't have guns. And when I say we,
these are people that walk down This was a tiny
percentage of the overall, which nobody sees and nobody shows.
Speaker 4 (29:08):
But that was a day of love.
Speaker 6 (29:10):
From the standpoint of the millions, it's like hundreds of thousands.
It could have been the largest group I've ever spoken before.
They asked me to speak. I went and I spoke,
and I used the term peacefully and patriotically. If you
look at the Democrats what they say, you look at
Maxine Waters, and you look at Hillary Clinton, and you
look at what they say, and they don't put that on.
(29:30):
They only put Republicans on. But they couldn't get me
because of the fact that I said, everything's got to
be peaceful and patriotic, and we'll see how it all
works out. But I think that we're going to We're
right now in another election.
Speaker 7 (29:45):
We want.
Speaker 6 (29:45):
All I want is honest elections. I'm willing to take
any chance. I want honest election.
Speaker 1 (29:52):
Tald Trump on Univision. He's getting roasted by most social
media perspectives on this particular s object. And then, of
course it doesn't help that they're also in the frame
showing the guy who asked the question him kind of skeptically,
kind of like opening his eyes and looking at him.
There they panned to some of the other people that
(30:12):
were at the town hall, and there's some looks of
confusion when he says Ashley Babbitt was killed. No one
was killed, right back to back, which I don't know
what he was trying to say there about what was
going on, but it it was an interesting question. A
Republican no longer registered to vote Republican. This is a
Hispanic vote we're talking about. To be watching Univision here
(30:34):
where there is a gap that you know, he could
really make up. We're seeing him do well in numbers
in Nevada and Arizona with the Hispanic male, young and
Hispanic male vote. But this is an opportunity, I think,
to kind of quell any January sixth things that anybody
might be worried about because they don't want to repeat
(30:55):
of that. They also, he could have said something about
the way that COVID teen was never really addressed that
in the question, and that's why I think people on
social media are really going after him on this. Now
you're going to be there, you're a Trump supporter, You're
listening to this and you're just like, well, that wasn't
a fair question. And I thought he did a fine
job answering it.
Speaker 5 (31:13):
And if that guy doesn't want to support him, then
he can just go, you know, screw himself or whatever. Well,
that's really not how it works. Okay.
Speaker 1 (31:20):
At some point you have to understand that this was
not a great answer to the question. And at some
point we're going to have to say, Look, he didn't
do super well there. He didn't take this opportunity to
try to win back a former Republican who is it
interested in voting for Donald Trump. There are many of them,
There are many people out there. I do want to say, however,
(31:42):
that at the same time, I don't know what else
you want him to say. He's not going to incriminate himself.
And the way that he lost a lot of the
relationships within his administration, or the way that things turned
out on January sixth. Everything he just said there We've
heard a thousand times from different people from the political right.
Speaker 5 (32:00):
That's just that's what happened.
Speaker 1 (32:02):
A small percentage of the people that were unhappy with
the way the election shook down went toward the Capitol
and the craziness that we saw happened. Okay, that's the reality.
And again we have talked about that ad nauseum. I
think what people are looking for is saying I don't
condone that. There's nothing I condone there in really saying that.
So it's opening the door for more questions about that
(32:24):
to continue to happen. Everybody calls this guy a liar.
If he was such a liar, he wouldn't he at
least say something about this, and you could accuse him
of lying.
Speaker 5 (32:33):
But he's not lying.
Speaker 1 (32:34):
He's saying things that he feels are actually one hundred
percent the truth about this situation. So if you consider
him to be a big liar, and there are people
out there that think Donald Trump's a big, bad liar,
then why does he not say something which could then
be misconstrued as the truth or even lies that people
(32:54):
could come after him on? About January sixth when he
brings this up, he gets killed on this, But he
literally is telling people what he saw and what he
feels about that day. And if he was such a
big time liar, wouldn't this be like the one thing
that he wouldn't lie about or that he would lie about.
Speaker 5 (33:11):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (33:12):
To me, it's just interesting what people are grading this
guy on. At the same time, I do think he
could have done better. When answering that question, he continued,
there was a woman that was up on stage, and
she is a Spanish speaker works for the University of
California at Los Angeles UCLA. And she had a question
to ask Donald Trump, and this one is about what
he thinks of Kamala Harris.
Speaker 7 (33:33):
Good evening, mister President. I only think it's fair to
ask the same question. I post the Democrat candidate Quala son.
Speaker 2 (33:42):
Les Tresbrutu, this kilst Reconnose and la vic a presidenta
Kamala Harris.
Speaker 7 (33:48):
What are the three virtues that you see in Vice
President Kamala Harris.
Speaker 6 (33:55):
That's a very hard question. That's the toughest question. The
other ones are easy.
Speaker 5 (34:04):
I'm not a fan.
Speaker 4 (34:05):
I'm not a fan.
Speaker 6 (34:07):
I think she's harmed our country horribly, horribly at the border,
with inflation, with so many other things. But she seems
to have an ability to survive. She seemed because you know,
she was out of the race and all of a
sudden she's running for president.
Speaker 5 (34:24):
That's a great.
Speaker 6 (34:25):
Ability that some people have and some people don't have.
Speaker 4 (34:29):
She seems to have.
Speaker 6 (34:31):
Some pretty long time friendships and that's you know also
that I.
Speaker 4 (34:37):
Don't call that an ability. I call that a good thing.
Speaker 5 (34:41):
And she seems to have a nice way about her.
Speaker 6 (34:42):
I mean I like the way, you know, some of
her statements, some of her the way she behaves in
a certain way, but in another way, I think it's
very bad for our country, very bad for our country.
But she does seem to have some relationships lasting, and
she does seem to be a survivor, because remember she
(35:04):
was the first one out and all of a sudden
she's running for president, and the other twenty one people
that are running this sitting home watching her in television.
Speaker 4 (35:11):
Right.
Speaker 6 (35:11):
So that's by far the toughest question I've had today.
Speaker 4 (35:15):
Thank you very much. I appreciate your answer.
Speaker 5 (35:18):
All Right, So there you go. Very interesting. I'll step aside.
Speaker 1 (35:21):
I'll give you a little bit of an insight as
to what Kamala Harris said when she had a similar
question at a Univision town hall last week. We'll do
that next year on news radio eleven ten kfab. He's
answering the question because the question was one are the
three virtues you see in president Vice President Kamala Harris?
And he answered the question. She was asked the same
question last week when she did her Univision town hall,
(35:42):
and she said, he seems to love his family. But
I don't really have a whole lot of other things
to say about him because I don't know him. Kind
of thing, and it's just like that was quite a
cop out. Yeah, he loves his family, but that was
one thing, Kamala. He came up with three things. If
you don't know each other, how did he do it?
So I think point to Trump there, even though you
know he's trying to not be too nice to her.
(36:03):
And we need to humanize more politicians. I guess that's
what the point is. I need more questions like this
because the more we humanize the people that we're talking
about here, the more that we stop using fear as
a weapon on the American people in elections. Right. That
was one thing John McCain made very clear when he
was running against Barack Obama. All the people that wanted
to say Barack Obama was like he is Arab, I
(36:24):
don't trust him, He's not from the United States of America,
and stuff like that, and then John McCain would be like, no,
that's not something you need to be afraid of. We
just disagree on political matters. Now, it may have cost
John McCain the election, but that's our fault, the American
people saying, hey, look, you know what you're telling me
not to be afraid of this guy.
Speaker 5 (36:41):
I'm not voting for you at some point.
Speaker 1 (36:44):
If we want this to be as healthy as we
possibly can be as a nation, we need to humanize
the people that are running for our public office, not
making them out to be like these giant demons. And
I think this is a good question to illustrate that,
and an answer from Donald Trump. Even though he's not
trying to be overtly complimentary to Kamala Harris, he's also
(37:05):
giving compliments to answer a question that people I think
would be interested in his answer. Kamala did not return
the favor when she was asked the same question last
week on her Univision town hall.
Speaker 5 (37:15):
We got a five o'clock hour coming up. We'll have
a lot more fun.
Speaker 1 (37:17):
We'll talk some football, we'll talk to our one thousand
dollars winner from yesterday. We'll talk about all sorts of
cool stuff and fun and all that jazz. Stick around
News Radio eleven ten KFAB
Let's pick up where we were on a question that
was brought up. You're going to hear the audio from
a commercial from Donald Trump in his campaign which was
airing last month, and it's about Kamala Harris talking about
taxpayer funded gender transition surgeries for criminals and illegal aliens.
(00:21):
And then Brett Bayer is going to propose or pose
a question here to Kamala about that. But it's going
to start with this ad, and then we'll get to
the question.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
Every transgender the inmate in the prison system would have access.
Speaker 3 (00:35):
So are you still in support of using taxpayer dollars
to help prison inmates or detained illegal aliens to transition
to another gender.
Speaker 2 (00:43):
I will follow the law, and it's a law that
Donald Trump actually followed you're probably familiar with.
Speaker 4 (00:50):
Now.
Speaker 2 (00:50):
It's a public report that under Donald Trump's administration, these
surgeries were available to on a medical necessity basis to
people in the federal prison system. And I think, frankly,
that ad from the Trump campaign is a little bit
of like throwing, you know, stones when you're live in
a glasshouse.
Speaker 3 (01:10):
The Trump aids say that he never advocated for that
prison policy and no gender transition well responsible.
Speaker 4 (01:17):
For what happened in your administration.
Speaker 3 (01:19):
Yeah, no surgery has happened in this pregnacy. Would you
still advocate for using task pay of dollars for gender reassignment?
Speaker 2 (01:26):
I will follow the law just as you think Trump
would say he did.
Speaker 4 (01:30):
You would have to say, as president, like.
Speaker 2 (01:32):
I said, I think it's real he spent twenty million
dollars on those ads trying to create a sense of
fear in the voters because he actually has no plan
in this election that is about focusing on the needs
of the American people.
Speaker 1 (01:47):
So that's Kama talking about the gender assignment surgery. And
we have different people that say, you know, stuff that
we can't go in fact check. But we can't fact
check whether or not this was happening now. The gender
affirming Care was president during Trump's administration. However, everyone in
the Trump administration or the aids to Donald Trump and
(02:09):
his campaign currently say that none of those surgeries actually
were performed in the entire country during his administration. It's
a complex issue, I guess to talk about. Even though
it seems pretty obvious that hey, you know what tax
payer money to something like that. Who thinks that's a
good idea Joe of Han's anybody anybody in the room.
(02:30):
If you're wondering about Kamala Harrison the way that she
views her relationship with Joe Biden's presidency, well, that actually
was also brought up when Kamala basically wanted to make
it pretty obvious as to how alike she and Joe
Biden are and how alike their presidencies would be.
Speaker 3 (02:50):
You're not Joe Biden, You're not Donald Trump, but nothing
comes to mind that you would do differently.
Speaker 4 (02:54):
Let me be very clear.
Speaker 2 (02:56):
My presidency will not be a continuation of Joe Biden's
presidents And like every new president that comes in to office,
I will bring my life experiences, my professional experiences, and
fresh and new ideas.
Speaker 4 (03:10):
I represent a new generation of leadership.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
Huh interesting, Well, Matt, and maybe maybe you can help
me out with this. Well, she doesn't look like Joe Biden,
she's not Joe Biden's age, she doesn't talk like Joe Biden,
but she was his vice president. Now we've seen this
picture before. How many vice presidents then took and assumed
the presidency after the president that they were serving under
(03:35):
pop quiz I would guess five. Well, there's a lot
more than that seventeen. It's probably closer to like twelve
or something. I don't have it in front of me.
But John Adams was the vice president for George Washington.
Now this is before political parties. The guy who finished
second was generally the guy so the founding fathers, and
(03:56):
Jefferson was under Adams. Most of those presidencies don't even
kind of resemble them each other, Like go back and
read about John adams presidency versus what happened under Washington
and also what happened under Jefferson. They don't even look
close to the same. But remember the rules weren't you
have a running mate. The rules were guy wins, guy
who finished a second is the vice president. That was
(04:17):
the answer at the time of like, hey, we don't
want political factions to be forming, we want everybody to
be working together.
Speaker 5 (04:24):
Guess how well that worked. Not great.
Speaker 1 (04:27):
They eventually formed political parties and had running mates anyway,
and it wasn't that long after that that they were
doing that. The next guy that I think would be
important is John Tyler. John Tyler took over from the
immortal William Henry Harrison, and he's immortal because he's incredibly mortal.
In fact, he died thirty days after he took the
oath of office because he got pneumonia from doing too
(04:49):
long of a inauguration speech in a driving rain in Washington, DC.
Speaker 5 (04:53):
He forgot his jacket. Bad bad plan.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
William and port tipeic can New didn't really have much
much of anything that he could do in the presidency.
But literally, because he didn't do much, he's not generally
considered the worst president ever because he didn't really have
a chance to do any harm or damage. John Tyler,
on the other hand, literally did quite nothing while he
was in there, and he served the better part of
the entire four year term before he was replaced by
(05:17):
James K. Polk, an actual, you know, legitimate president that
actually did get stuff done. So those are a few
early ones. More of the recent ones. Let's go post
Abraham Lincoln. He gets assassinated. His vice president of the
New Union Party or whatever he was calling it at
the time, was a Democrat by the name of Andrew Johnson, who,
by the way, happened to get impeached while he was
(05:38):
in office, first guy ever to do that. Then, you know,
you go back and forth. You know, it's really only
people who took the baton was from deaths that happened
Chester Allen Arthur. You can go and fast forward to
somebody like Lyndon B.
Speaker 5 (05:53):
Johnson.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
They generally had legacies of their own, but most of
the time it wasn't the kind of legacy that they'd
be looking for. William Howard Taft got the handoff from
Teddy Roosevelt. Look how good that did within four years.
Teddy's like, I'm forming an entirely new party called the
Bull Moose Party, the Progressive Party, and I'm gonna take
out my old pal because he sucks at this president's stuff.
(06:16):
George H. W. Bush probably gets a bad rap, but
he took the baton from Ronald Reagan. Presidency was nothing alike.
Things change, situations change, and unfortunately for some political parties,
they've had to eat some of that. All I'm saying
is there's a chance she's very different, but there's a
chance that she's very similar as well. Only time is
gonna tell, but history shows us that vice presidents generally
(06:38):
have been very different than their predecessors once they actually
got into power three p.
Speaker 5 (06:43):
Forty nine. We'll come back with more here on News
Radio eleven to ten kfab and.
Speaker 4 (06:46):
They's song on news radio eleven ten kfab.
Speaker 1 (06:51):
Kama is like, Hey, I'm not Joe Biden. I'm not
gonna be doing Joe Biden. Well, Brett Bayer is just like, well, look,
Joe Biden was around you like every day for like
three and a half years. You never once decided like, hey,
by the way, this guy probably a little too old
to be running for another four year term. Well let's
see what she has to say about that.
Speaker 4 (07:08):
Right, Joe Biden is not on the ballot. I understand
Donald Trump, Donald Trump, we can't talk about it.
Speaker 3 (07:14):
And Donald George Clooney so within a few minutes of
talking to President Biden at a fundraiser that he thought this
was not the same Joe Biden that we saw on
the debate stage.
Speaker 4 (07:23):
Jus is on the ballot.
Speaker 3 (07:24):
I understand you met with him at least once a
week for three and a half years. You didn't have
any concerns.
Speaker 2 (07:32):
I think the American people have a concern about Donald Trump,
which is why the people who know him best, including
leaders of our national security community, have all spoken out.
Even people who worked for him in the Oval Office,
worked with him in the situation room and have said
he is unfit and dangerous and should never be president
(07:56):
of the United States again, including his former vice president,
which is why the job was open for him to
choose another running mate.
Speaker 4 (08:07):
So that is a fact. That is a fact.
Speaker 1 (08:12):
Wow, Okay, Tom, I'll appreciate that. We're never gonna get
an answer to that question, are we. Nobody's ever going to
like just be like, yeah, oh well, you know, we
just we saw him decline. We just didn't want to
say anything, but yeah.
Speaker 5 (08:22):
Because I think the answer would be, well, we at
the time didn't know if it was perceptive and you know,
people would pick up on it enough. Can we can
we conceal it? Basically they felt comfortable that they could
until that debate. Well, yeah, exactly.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
But this is the other thing too, is that when
you're seeing it every single day, like that happened slowly
over time, when we're seeing it and just in you know,
small spurts every couple of weeks, we're just like, wait
a second, this guy does not look right. It says not,
this doesn't look It's easier for us to pick it up.
You know, God, bless my late dog Jagger. Jagger got
worse and progressively less weight. He lost weight over probably
(08:58):
a period of two or three months, and we didn't
really pick up on how like how much that had
affected him because we were seeing him every day. Our
vet saw him before we had to put him down,
and almost fell over when he saw him, just like,
holy cow, this dog is in terrible shape, Like he
cannot keep living like this. Okay, that was a mistake
that we made with our dog, right, I'm sure it
(09:21):
can happen with a human too, And I'm not trying
to give them excuses here. They need to answer the
darn question. If they could just tell us that, if
they could just say, hey, yeah, sorry, we didn't notice
it was that bad. Until you know, people from outside
that don't see him every day, we're like, whoa, this
guy is not the same guy. Maybe we should just
admit to doing that. If you could just say that,
(09:42):
I think we'd have a lot more respect for the process.
Then you guys just trying to string him along and
act like we're stupid and not seeing things the right way.
And then all of a sudden, oh yeah, by the way,
he's not going to run for president again.
Speaker 5 (09:53):
But I think that the feedback that you would get
and that scenario of why never to do that is
from a pr standpoint, there is absolutely no way to
answer that honestly. And then it also looked positively on you,
So you just can't answer it. You have to deflect.
You have to bring up the that Donald Trump your
side looks at as the enemy and reinforce that.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
Well, yeah, and then reinforce it in the same way
they're like, he's not fit for president. Donald Trump isn't
fit for president and should never serve as president of
the United States. Again, it's like, well that he was
never even brought up there, But that's just politics one O.
One is we can't shift that conversation. We can't answer
that honestly in a way that we can just be like, Okay,
(10:33):
you know what, we screwed that up. That was our bad,
but you know what, we're not going to make that
mistake again. And this is why the next four years
could be better under us is because we know we
don't have a mental decline problem with this administration.
Speaker 5 (10:49):
You know what, Actually that's pretty clever. Say hey, look
look what he did and he was cognive, cognitively declining.
Speaker 1 (10:56):
Imagine what we could do if we we you know,
you have two people at are in Zombia and then
she does a chick flip and wins the gen Z vote.
Speaker 6 (11:03):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (11:03):
See, there's a way to do it gracefully and answer
this question. Say that you messed up and you can
take responsibility for that somehow as a whole. It's not
just her fault. It's a lot of people's faults. We'll
have more. Kamala Harris on Fox News yesterday. Coming up
here on news Radio eleven ten, kfab I'm gonna crack
something open. I'm gonna make let you guess what I'm drinking.
By the sound of the can.
Speaker 5 (11:25):
Mmmmm hmmm.
Speaker 7 (11:26):
What is it?
Speaker 5 (11:26):
Sounded like an RC Cola to me. Oh, come on,
I wouldn't be caught dead. Now there goes that endorsement anyway. No,
it's a mountain z VA of course.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
All right.
Speaker 5 (11:36):
Cheers to you, Cheers to you, cheers to yours, and
cheers to mine.
Speaker 4 (11:42):
Ah.
Speaker 5 (11:42):
Yeah, that's good.
Speaker 1 (11:45):
The Yankees and Guardians just started Game three of the
American League Championship Series. So the little afternoon baseball going on.
Yankee is a two nothing series lead. I'm trying to
not get too panicked about the Yankees and Dodgers meeting
in the World Series.
Speaker 5 (11:59):
Would call it an afternoon delight.
Speaker 1 (12:02):
No, No, I feel like that references to a song
that means something incredibly different than a baseball game. Oh
really yeah, And I would not listen to listen to
that around the kiddos and have them ask you what
that means.
Speaker 5 (12:17):
Anyway. So that's going on. Get the more sporting events.
Is good Thursday for sports.
Speaker 1 (12:23):
Yesterday it was a good afternoon for some politics. Kamala
Harris did an actual interview with somebody who wasn't going
to give her softballs. Brett Bayer from Fox News pick
up where we left off. We've been talking about this
on and off throughout the entirety of the day, which
people can find where Matt, because we do save our
conversations for you to go find.
Speaker 5 (12:43):
We do. We save them for posterity reasons and for
my posture. But that doesn't have anything. It just sounds
like posterity. That's why I said it. Okay, you go
to kfab dot com and then you click on there's
this icon on the top left corner of the page,

different ways. Also, even more conveniently, you can go on
your phone to the free iHeartRadio app and just search

Like these are episodic, you want to listen to all
four hundred and eighty one episodes, well four hundred and
eighty until you get to the most recent one. That's

do is just you know, when you log in, it'll
automatically download, make a lot easier for you to listen
to what we got going on. So, Kamala Harris, this
is the last clip I wanted to play here because
(14:25):
this is about her relationship with the Donald Trump rhetoric
we talked about after the assassination attempt in Pennsylvania, which is,
you know, a couple of months ago, but it's, gosh,
that's three.
Speaker 5 (14:35):
Months ago now now that I think about it, it
was that was July.
Speaker 1 (14:39):
Geez, but you know, changing the tone of our conversations
a little bit.
Speaker 5 (14:44):
Now.
Speaker 1 (14:44):
I don't know if that's necessarily happened all that much,
but it was brought up to Kamala with this conversation
on Fox News with Brett Baher. Here's Kamala and Rhett
Bayer talking about political rhetoric.
Speaker 3 (14:56):
If he's as bad as you say, that half of
this country is now supporting this person who could be
the forty seventh president of the United States. Why is
that happening?
Speaker 2 (15:06):
This is a little election for president of the United States.
It's not supposed to be easy. I know, but it's
not supposed to be It is not supposed to be sure.
Speaker 4 (15:16):
Are they misguided? Are they stupid?
Speaker 7 (15:19):
What?
Speaker 4 (15:19):
I would never say that about the American people.
Speaker 2 (15:22):
And in fact, if you listen to Donald Trump, if
you watch any of his rallies, he's the one who
tends to demean and belittle and diminish the American people.
Speaker 4 (15:32):
He's the one who talks about.
Speaker 2 (15:33):
An enemy within, an enemy within, talking about the American people,
suggesting he would turn the American military on the American people.
Speaker 3 (15:44):
We asked that question to the former president. Today, Harris
Faulkner had a town hall and this is how he responded.
Speaker 6 (15:52):
I heard about that they were saying, I was like threatening,
I'm not threatening anybody. They're the ones doing the threatening.
They do phony investingations. I've been investigated more than Alphonse Capone.
Speaker 4 (16:03):
He was the greatest action.
Speaker 6 (16:04):
No, it's true, we don't been thinking it. It's called
weaponization of government is.
Speaker 4 (16:08):
A terrible thing.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
So but I'm sorry, and with all due respect, that
clip was not what he has been saying about the
enemy within that he has repeated when he's speaking about
the American people.
Speaker 4 (16:21):
That's not what you just showed, he was asking. No, No,
that's not what you just showed. In all fairness and.
Speaker 2 (16:26):
Respect to you, the question that we asked him, he
didn't show that. And here's the bottom line. He has
repeated it many times. And you and I both know that.
And you and I both know that. He has talked
about turning the American military on the American people. He
has talked about going after people who are engaged in
peaceful protests. He has talked about locking people up because
(16:48):
they disagree with him. This is a democracy and an
inner democracy. The president of the United States, in the
United States of America should be willing to be able
to handle criticism without saying he'd lock people up for
doing it. And this is what is at stake, which
is why you have someone like the former chairman of
(17:10):
the Joint Chiefs of Staff saying what Mark Milly has
said about Donald Trump being a threat to the United
States of America.
Speaker 4 (17:20):
He's quoted in the bub Woodward book that way.
Speaker 1 (17:22):
Yes, Okay, so there's that conversation. Donald Trump has had
this issue that has kind of plagued him for the
better part of the last nine years since he's been
in the mix. Politically, it's people like Democrats or anybody
who opposes his viewpoints basically saying exactly what Kamalas said
(17:46):
in just different ways. Oh, this guy is a threat.
He's always talking about locking people up, and he's I
haven't heard specific threats about getting the American military involved
to go after American citizens who disagree with him. I
do think that there needs to be some level of Hey,
by the way, because you don't win the election, we
need to have an understanding that there's not going to
(18:07):
be violence in this country. There shouldn't be either side.
At the same time, this is exactly what we would
expect from somebody like Kamala Harris, who ratchets this thing
back up to say, you should be afraid of my opponent,
you should be afraid of Donald Trump. And that's just
a darn shame that we're back to talking about how
we are using fear and turning it on to the
(18:30):
American people and saying, if you are afraid of what
could happen under this person, vote for me, not talking
about our own policies, not talking about the changes we
can make. The bottom line eventually is just be afraid
of what the other side is going to do. And
I dislike that greatly. Got a couple of things about
Donald Trump as well coming up here when it come back.
He actually yesterday did a town hall on Univision Spanish
(18:53):
speaking network. Kamala Harris did one of these two. It
wasn't a whole lot to write home about. But Donald
Trump had a couple of moments here that are making
the rounds on social media, and in the sake of
fairness and complete transparency, that's what I'm here for. Well,
revisit a couple of those clips as well, So stick
around on news radio eleven ten kfab.
Speaker 4 (19:10):
Em Resunger on news radio eleven ten kfab.
Speaker 1 (19:16):
Kind of your fault too, Matt. I mean, you're my producer.
You could be pushed me to the break earlier.
Speaker 5 (19:21):
It's true. I could have thrown up the break signs
back here. That would have been unlike. That's I just
usually don't need that much time at the bottom of
the hour, and I didn't get I don't give myself
enough time at the bottom, you know, I don't know
do I need.
Speaker 1 (19:36):
Do you think I need to get balanced a little bit?
More like it? Sometimes I'm just too free flowing with
our segs, you know what I mean?
Speaker 5 (19:43):
Balance the time? You mean, Yeah, maybe I'm doing a
bad job on that. I'll have to go do read
a book or so about you know, like how that affects,
you know, audience interest or my grades. The radio teacher
that great, it's my show every day. Yeah, when she
when is she back in town?
Speaker 1 (20:04):
I don't know she's She reminds me of the teacher
in Charlie Brown. You can't understand the darn thing she's saying. Yeah, anyway,
I'll spend this time instead talking about football in baseball.
Speaker 5 (20:21):
Just quickly.
Speaker 1 (20:22):
Tonight we got a couple of college games six pm.
Georgia State at Marshall. This one it matters absolutely not
at all to anyone except for maybe Marshall trying to
achieve both eligibility. Marshall's a nine and a half point favorite.
If you wanted to fly to Huntington, West Virginia and
watch this thing, by the way, seven dollars. You can
get tickets for seven bucks. Oh not the flight though,
(20:45):
Oh no, no, you'd have to go. You have to
find it direct flight to Huntington, hunting Huntington, Huntington, West Virginia, Huntington,
West Virginia. How many flights would it take to get there?
You have to take a barge.
Speaker 5 (20:57):
I have no idea where Huntington is. I know where
Marshall is. There's movie about it because the tragic thing
happened to them in the seventies. Yeah, so anyway, six
thirty tonight, Boston College four and two, a pretty fun
team to watch, to be honest with you. At Virginia Tech,
who's three and three? These teams trying to fight towards
the top of the ACC get themselves positioned for potentially
(21:17):
a Bowl game as well. Where's the line is it?
Is it in Boston? Nope, Virginia Tech at Blacksburg. They're
going to be playing the ac DC as these guys
come out. Oh right, I'll say probably Virginia Tech by
a field goal. It's Virginia Tech actually bout eight and
a half. What are they seeing? That's crazy? That's crazy
(21:40):
talk And give me BC all day. NFL game tonight
Bronco's at Saints. Why is this game significant? Well, they
said it in the Little Sports Update there. Sean Payton
is back after leaving.
Speaker 1 (21:55):
Sean Payton left the Saints after a long tenure there.
Won a Super Bowl with the team that was well
known as the Aints for many a decade. Drew Brees
and him had a great relationship. Sean got back into
coaching before last year with the Denver Broncos. That hasn't
necessarily gone as well as you'd think. But Broncos three
and three Saints two and four at home. Sounds like
(22:17):
Spencer Rattler again for the Saints tonight, getting the start
for the injured Derek Carr and the Broncos still rolling
with Bo Nicks, who's been up and down as a rookie.
Speaker 5 (22:28):
Where's the line? Hmmm, Well that's tough. Saints have lost
four in a row, for whatever that's worth. Four in
a row, but it's in the Super Dume. But how
could you favor I'm losing four in a row and
you got your backup quarterback in there. I don't know.
Maybe I guess I'd probably say Broncos by a field goal.
Speaker 1 (22:46):
Ding ding ding, ding Ding, Denver, buy a field goal. Congratulations.
By the way, the over under thirty seven and a half.
It is a low number for an NFL game, Low low,
low number. Anyway, that's the football games and of course
the baseball game. Tonight, we're excited about to watch a
baseball Guardians hosting the Yankees in Cleveland. Right now, Guardians
have a couple of runners on in the first inning,
(23:06):
that's just underway. Guardians desperately need to win. They trail
the Yankees to nothing. Pretty much a must win game
here in Game three, City Field tonight in Queens, New York,
Mets hosting the Dodgers. Dodgers have a two to one
series lead after another drubbing shutout last night by the Dodgers.
They've won both of the games that they've won of
this series by shutouts. So the Mets need an answer
(23:29):
tonight and we'll see if they can get one. The
ace you're Aamamoto is going to take the bump for
the Dodgers. It is four twenty seven. That's your little
mini Emory sports update. When we come back, we're going
to talk Donald Trump. Donald Trump was on Univision a
couple of things that were pretty interesting. But before we
(23:50):
do that, we got some tickets to give away.
Speaker 5 (23:54):
Bruce Crawford, our buddy Bruce Crawford is doing a charity
screening of an American Werewolf in London. That's next Friday
at seven o'clock at the Omaha Community Playhouse. Got a
pair of tickets to give away right now, Hey, Matt,
guess what we need a number? What's a good number?
What is a good number? Well?
Speaker 1 (24:08):
Oh, I got one, I got one. The last time
the Yankees won the World Series was what year was it?
Speaker 5 (24:13):
In the nineties? No, the two thousand, Yes, I don't know,
like two thousand and seven. It's two thousand and nine. Okay,
you know who the MVP of the World Series was?
Derek Jeter. No, Alex Rodriguez. No, he's a good guesses
Chuck Knoblock. Okay, now you you lost a decade somewhere
in the mix there. No, it was Hideki Matt suiy Ah. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (24:33):
What was the Deki Matt Suey's number in Major League Baseball?
Thirty nine fifty five? Come on, thought you knew baseball
better than No, I don't know Hideki Matt Sue's number.
That is my baseball knowledge stopped right before there. No,
it didn't. It didn't stop right before there because he
knew Jeter was there ANYWAYDKI, Matt suey Uh fifty five

kfab and May's Songer.
Speaker 5 (25:12):
Share it with someone you you want to know something
you know? You want to know what I think about
all this? What do you think about all this?
Speaker 1 (25:20):
I think it's good. We're showing that we have quite
a big footprint here on this. I had a guy
from Finland once say that he could hear the me
on a radio show. I can't remember which station I
was on, but he was.
Speaker 5 (25:32):
He picked up. He's got like a wave catcher or
something in Finland. Like he's a big radio enthusiast and
somehow picked he picks up like international radio stations all
the time. Isn't that crazy? That is I would have
never imagined. Yeah, from from where you were I'm assuming
it was maybe working in Iowa. Yeah, but that so
that little radio wave worked its way all the way
(25:55):
across America and across the ocean. I know that radio
wave do great bouncing on bodies of water, correct, But
the fact that it could work its way, I mean,
I don't know Finland to Finland, it's not even like
I mean, that's that's in a bit. When you get
up to Scandinavia, I mean that's it borders Russia. So yeah,
there you go. Anyway back to what we were talking about.
(26:17):
Donald Trump was on Univision last night. He was doing
a town hall and was asked a couple of different questions.
One that really is making the rounds out of the
sake of fairness. This is what I do, Ladies and gentlemen.
I'm not here to give you one hundred percent all
just my own personal opinions. I'm here to tell you
information and let you come to your own personal conclusions.
There was a voter.
Speaker 1 (26:37):
These are American citizens who are Spanish speakers first, but
many of them can speak English, and in some cases
they do. And in this case, there was a man
who spoke English here and had a story I think
is pretty familiar to people who used to consider themselves
pretty staunch Republicans. More Mitt Romney, John McCain style Republicans
pre Donald Trump. Here is a man on Union asking
(27:00):
Donald Trump a very interesting question last night.
Speaker 5 (27:03):
I am a Republican no longer registered.
Speaker 4 (27:06):
Though.
Speaker 8 (27:08):
I want to give you the opportunity to try to
win back my vote. Okay, your action and maybe in
action during your presidency and the last few years sort of, you.
Speaker 4 (27:23):
Know, was a little disturbing to me.
Speaker 8 (27:25):
You know, what happened during January sixth, and the fact
that you know, you waited so long to take action
while your supporters were attacking the capitol coronavirus. I thought
we were the public was misled during coronavirus and that morning,
and many more lives could have been saved if we
(27:46):
would have been informed better. And also people in your
administration who don't support you. I'm curious how people so
close to you and your administration no longer want to
support you.
Speaker 5 (27:59):
So why would I want to for you? If you
would answer these.
Speaker 8 (28:02):
Questions for me, I would really appreciate it and give
you the opportunity this. You know, your own vice president
doesn't want to support you now.
Speaker 4 (28:08):
Thank you, Ramido.
Speaker 6 (28:10):
So the people that don't support a very small portion.
We have a tremendous about ninety seven percent of the
people in the administration support me. But because it's me,
somebody doesn't support, they get a little publicity. The vice president,
I disagree with him on what he did. I totally
disagreed with him on what he did. Very importantly, you
(28:31):
had hundreds of thousands of people come to Washington. They
didn't come because of me. They came because of the election.
They thought the election was a rigged election, and that's
why they came. Some of those people went down to
the capital. I said, peacefully and patriotically, nothing done wrong
at all, nothing done wrong, and action was taken, strong action.
(28:52):
Ashley Babbitt was killed. Nobody was killed. There were no
guns down there. We didn't have guns. The others had guns,
but we didn't have guns. And when I say we,
these are people that walk down This was a tiny
percentage of the overall, which nobody sees and nobody shows.
Speaker 4 (29:08):
But that was a day of love.
Speaker 6 (29:10):
From the standpoint of the millions, it's like hundreds of thousands.
It could have been the largest group I've ever spoken before.
They asked me to speak. I went and I spoke,
and I used the term peacefully and patriotically. If you
look at the Democrats what they say, you look at
Maxine Waters, and you look at Hillary Clinton, and you
look at what they say, and they don't put that on.
(29:30):
They only put Republicans on. But they couldn't get me
because of the fact that I said, everything's got to
be peaceful and patriotic, and we'll see how it all
works out. But I think that we're going to We're
right now in another election.
Speaker 7 (29:45):
We want.
Speaker 6 (29:45):
All I want is honest elections. I'm willing to take
any chance. I want honest election.
Speaker 1 (29:52):
Tald Trump on Univision. He's getting roasted by most social
media perspectives on this particular s object. And then, of
course it doesn't help that they're also in the frame
showing the guy who asked the question him kind of skeptically,
kind of like opening his eyes and looking at him.
There they panned to some of the other people that
(30:12):
were at the town hall, and there's some looks of
confusion when he says Ashley Babbitt was killed. No one
was killed, right back to back, which I don't know
what he was trying to say there about what was
going on, but it it was an interesting question. A
Republican no longer registered to vote Republican. This is a
Hispanic vote we're talking about. To be watching Univision here
(30:34):
where there is a gap that you know, he could
really make up. We're seeing him do well in numbers
in Nevada and Arizona with the Hispanic male, young and
Hispanic male vote. But this is an opportunity, I think,
to kind of quell any January sixth things that anybody
might be worried about because they don't want to repeat
(30:55):
of that. They also, he could have said something about
the way that COVID teen was never really addressed that
in the question, and that's why I think people on
social media are really going after him on this. Now
you're going to be there, you're a Trump supporter, You're
listening to this and you're just like, well, that wasn't
a fair question. And I thought he did a fine
job answering it.
Speaker 5 (31:13):
And if that guy doesn't want to support him, then
he can just go, you know, screw himself or whatever. Well,
that's really not how it works. Okay.
Speaker 1 (31:20):
At some point you have to understand that this was
not a great answer to the question. And at some
point we're going to have to say, Look, he didn't
do super well there. He didn't take this opportunity to
try to win back a former Republican who is it
interested in voting for Donald Trump. There are many of them,
There are many people out there. I do want to say, however,
(31:42):
that at the same time, I don't know what else
you want him to say. He's not going to incriminate himself.
And the way that he lost a lot of the
relationships within his administration, or the way that things turned
out on January sixth. Everything he just said there We've
heard a thousand times from different people from the political right.
Speaker 5 (32:00):
That's just that's what happened.
Speaker 1 (32:02):
A small percentage of the people that were unhappy with
the way the election shook down went toward the Capitol
and the craziness that we saw happened. Okay, that's the reality.
And again we have talked about that ad nauseum. I
think what people are looking for is saying I don't
condone that. There's nothing I condone there in really saying that.
So it's opening the door for more questions about that
(32:24):
to continue to happen. Everybody calls this guy a liar.
If he was such a liar, he wouldn't he at
least say something about this, and you could accuse him
of lying.
Speaker 5 (32:33):
But he's not lying.
Speaker 1 (32:34):
He's saying things that he feels are actually one hundred
percent the truth about this situation. So if you consider
him to be a big liar, and there are people
out there that think Donald Trump's a big, bad liar,
then why does he not say something which could then
be misconstrued as the truth or even lies that people
(32:54):
could come after him on? About January sixth when he
brings this up, he gets killed on this, But he
literally is telling people what he saw and what he
feels about that day. And if he was such a
big time liar, wouldn't this be like the one thing
that he wouldn't lie about or that he would lie about.
Speaker 5 (33:11):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (33:12):
To me, it's just interesting what people are grading this
guy on. At the same time, I do think he
could have done better. When answering that question, he continued,
there was a woman that was up on stage, and
she is a Spanish speaker works for the University of
California at Los Angeles UCLA. And she had a question
to ask Donald Trump, and this one is about what
he thinks of Kamala Harris.
Speaker 7 (33:33):
Good evening, mister President. I only think it's fair to
ask the same question. I post the Democrat candidate Quala son.
Speaker 2 (33:42):
Les Tresbrutu, this kilst Reconnose and la vic a presidenta
Kamala Harris.
Speaker 7 (33:48):
What are the three virtues that you see in Vice
President Kamala Harris.
Speaker 6 (33:55):
That's a very hard question. That's the toughest question. The
other ones are easy.
Speaker 5 (34:04):
I'm not a fan.
Speaker 4 (34:05):
I'm not a fan.
Speaker 6 (34:07):
I think she's harmed our country horribly, horribly at the border,
with inflation, with so many other things. But she seems
to have an ability to survive. She seemed because you know,
she was out of the race and all of a
sudden she's running for president.
Speaker 5 (34:24):
That's a great.
Speaker 6 (34:25):
Ability that some people have and some people don't have.
Speaker 4 (34:29):
She seems to have.
Speaker 6 (34:31):
Some pretty long time friendships and that's you know also
that I.
Speaker 4 (34:37):
Don't call that an ability. I call that a good thing.
Speaker 5 (34:41):
And she seems to have a nice way about her.
Speaker 6 (34:42):
I mean I like the way, you know, some of
her statements, some of her the way she behaves in
a certain way, but in another way, I think it's
very bad for our country, very bad for our country.
But she does seem to have some relationships lasting, and
she does seem to be a survivor, because remember she
(35:04):
was the first one out and all of a sudden
she's running for president, and the other twenty one people
that are running this sitting home watching her in television.
Speaker 4 (35:11):
Right.
Speaker 6 (35:11):
So that's by far the toughest question I've had today.
Speaker 4 (35:15):
Thank you very much. I appreciate your answer.
Speaker 5 (35:18):
All Right, So there you go. Very interesting. I'll step aside.
Speaker 1 (35:21):
I'll give you a little bit of an insight as
to what Kamala Harris said when she had a similar
question at a Univision town hall last week. We'll do
that next year on news radio eleven ten kfab. He's
answering the question because the question was one are the
three virtues you see in president Vice President Kamala Harris?
And he answered the question. She was asked the same
question last week when she did her Univision town hall,
(35:42):
and she said, he seems to love his family. But
I don't really have a whole lot of other things
to say about him because I don't know him. Kind
of thing, and it's just like that was quite a
cop out. Yeah, he loves his family, but that was
one thing, Kamala. He came up with three things. If
you don't know each other, how did he do it?
So I think point to Trump there, even though you
know he's trying to not be too nice to her.
(36:03):
And we need to humanize more politicians. I guess that's
what the point is. I need more questions like this
because the more we humanize the people that we're talking
about here, the more that we stop using fear as
a weapon on the American people in elections. Right. That
was one thing John McCain made very clear when he
was running against Barack Obama. All the people that wanted
to say Barack Obama was like he is Arab, I
(36:24):
don't trust him, He's not from the United States of America,
and stuff like that, and then John McCain would be like, no,
that's not something you need to be afraid of. We
just disagree on political matters. Now, it may have cost
John McCain the election, but that's our fault, the American
people saying, hey, look, you know what you're telling me
not to be afraid of this guy.
Speaker 5 (36:41):
I'm not voting for you at some point.
Speaker 1 (36:44):
If we want this to be as healthy as we
possibly can be as a nation, we need to humanize
the people that are running for our public office, not
making them out to be like these giant demons. And
I think this is a good question to illustrate that,
and an answer from Donald Trump. Even though he's not
trying to be overtly complimentary to Kamala Harris, he's also
(37:05):
giving compliments to answer a question that people I think
would be interested in his answer. Kamala did not return
the favor when she was asked the same question last
week on her Univision town hall.
Speaker 5 (37:15):
We got a five o'clock hour coming up. We'll have
a lot more fun.
Speaker 1 (37:17):
We'll talk some football, we'll talk to our one thousand
dollars winner from yesterday. We'll talk about all sorts of
cool stuff and fun and all that jazz. Stick around
