Speaker 1 (00:01):
The fallout from the debate this past week continues, and
there are a lot of people that have been asking
me what is going to happen, And there's a lot
of different scenarios. So I'm going to break it down
for you so you understand exactly what could happen here.
Speaker 2 (00:19):
After what was.
Speaker 1 (00:20):
Described by Reuters as the president's quote shaky performance at
the debate with Donald Trump on Thursday night, Democrats then
began to openly question whether he should be replaced as
a candidate for the twenty twenty four election. There is
a process for doing so, but to be very clear
(00:42):
so everyone understands that process, it's going to be extremely messy.
Speaker 2 (00:48):
The other question is how does it work.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
Reuters spoke with a senior fellow at the brookings In
think Tank, a Democratic National Committee member and the author
of the book Primary Politics, about the presidential nominating process,
and they asked the question that everyone's asking, how would
it work? So what options do the Democrats have? Let's
start with that the Democratic Party has had no real
(01:15):
plan B for Biden.
Speaker 2 (01:19):
As its presidential candidate.
Speaker 1 (01:21):
He ran virtually unopposed for the party's presidential nomination. They
decided that they decided to basically shut everybody out, tell
everybody not to run against him in a primary. He
will not be nominated officially however, until later this summer
at the Democratic National Convention. So the reality is, yes,
(01:41):
there is still time to make a change. And then
that's where the handful yeah, not one or two, but
a handful of scenarios become possible realities. Now here's the
easiest path to replace Joe Biden. So you understand, Biden
could just say by himself. And as you know, there's
(02:02):
reports that he's having a meeting with his closest advisors
and his family Sunday right, had this big meeting that
they put out to decide and to talk about the
future of the campaign.
Speaker 2 (02:17):
There could be and we're hearing that.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
Quote the money has dried up, people are not willing
to give. They also are going to be looking at
polling and internal polling numbers decide is there a pathway
for the president and not just a pathway, but is
there a way that they could turn this ship around
after the dismal performance. Now, I will say this to
(02:39):
be clear, Joe Biden and the team made sure that
Joe Biden was out there right after these debates and
not into hiding like he usually is. I've seen more
of Joe Biden in the past week than I have
seen probably in the last six months.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
Joe Biden is out.
Speaker 1 (02:56):
There, and they're treating him like he is a candidate
right now, now running for office. Now he may actually
have to be a real candidate now, not just kind
of show up here and there.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
He's gonna have to.
Speaker 1 (03:08):
Go full speed ahead and look at a lot of
donors in the eyes, and meet with a lot of
people and ask for a lot of favors. He's not
gonna be able to just do this by sitting at
the White House taking naps and working a noon to
force schedule. So again, Biden could just straight up decide himself,
I'm gonna step aside before I'm nominated at the convention.
(03:29):
He could be challenged by the way by others who
try to win over the delegates that he has accrued,
and that would be basically like a coup attempt by
the Democratic Party internally. Or he could withdraw after the
Democratic conventions in Chicago in August, leaving the Democratic National
Committee to elect someone.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
To run against Trump in his place.
Speaker 1 (03:52):
So those are the real scenarios that are at play here.
So the next question is, obviously this happens next, Well,
right now, the process largely depends on Joe Biden. So
what I would say is, it doesn't really matter what
any of the Democrats say.
Speaker 2 (04:10):
It's going to be up to Joe Biden.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
Now he would have to agree to step down or
face a challenger this late in the process, who would
then try to force him to then basically get out
of the rates. Biden and the team around him so
far have shown zero indications except for this meeting with
a family, and that could just be to say, hey,
we've met, we decided we're going to stick in this thing.
(04:33):
But we had a serious meeting to placate some Democrats
that are losing their minds. But in reality, every signal
is going to Joe Biden is not wanting to step aside,
and no opponents have said they would come and challenge
him directly at the convention. In fact, there haven't even
been leaks of those types of conversations, So that should
(04:54):
also tell you something. Now you've got to ask yourself
then this question, who would even his top political opponents
in the Democratic Party is potential replacements be whether and
I'm not rooting for these people.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
I'm just telling you the reality.
Speaker 1 (05:13):
Number one would be Vice President Kamala Harris. Because she
is the Vice President, she's second in line, she's already.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
Running with him.
Speaker 1 (05:22):
It would make sense that Kamala Harris would be the nominee.
The problem is she's hated by many Democrats and the
polling numbers for her are absolutely dismal. So again, she's
number one in theory on paper. Then number two would
obviously be California Governor Gavin Newsom. The problem with Gavin
(05:44):
Newsom is you would be basically replacing an African American
woman with a white.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
Rich dude from California.
Speaker 1 (05:51):
I don't know how that's going to go over with
minority voters, specifically African Americans and women in the Democratic Party.
That's number two now, Gavin Newsom. Just to be clear,
and some would say this was him being a good soldier,
but he spoke passionately in his defense after the debate,
(06:13):
serving as a surrogate role and showcasing his support. Now,
he also I think looked really good to Democrats. It
saw him because he contrasted what Joe Biden had just done.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
On stage and was faltering.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
So one looks crisp and clean and new and energetic
in Newsom, and the other looks old seen island. Well,
I mean lost his dead gumb mine. Now here's the
other question. What happens if Joe Biden steps down? He
just comes out and says, all right, I'm out. It's
(06:48):
a fair question. The answer Biden has spent the last
several months accruing about four thousand Democratic delegates by winning
primary election in US states and territories. Those delegates would
normally vote for him, but the rules do not bind
or force them to do so. Delegates of the convention
(07:11):
can vote with their conscience, which means they can throw
their vote to someone else. So if Biden says, hey,
I'm releasing the delegates. Okay, all four thousand plus of you,
I'm releasing you, and I'm going to release you, and
you get to step I'm gonna step aside, then there
could be a throwdown competition among other Democratic candidates become
(07:35):
the nominee. In theory, at the Democratic Convention that would
play out like a movie that could be good or
bad for the Democrats, depending on if they do it well.
Speaker 2 (07:43):
If there's a grand debate.
Speaker 1 (07:44):
It could help the person coming out of there, or
it could completely divide the Democratic Party and ruin their
chances come November. It's a very risky game, So that
would be the easiest, easiest path. Biden releases the delegates,
them stepping aside, and there could.
Speaker 2 (08:02):
Be a coronation.
Speaker 1 (08:04):
They could say it's gonna be Kama and that could
be the end of that. Or they could say it's
gonna be Gavin Newsom, or there could be an all
out war. But ultimately it's gonna come down to Biden.
In that scenario, who would replace Joe Biden. Several candidates
could step into the fray. There is obviously no number one.
(08:27):
Kama Harris would be in theory the number one. I
mentioned that a moment ago, but she doesn't really She's
not really number one because people don't really like her.
And so Harris would almost certainly be at the top
of the list just because she's the vice president. It's
the natural progression of power and the Democratic Party when
they ran, it's like, well, she would be a great
(08:48):
vice president in case thing happened in the president right,
Like it's all there on paper, But she's got her
own problems. She's got her own problems at a rocky start.
She can't keep people around to work for her. That's
another problem. She apparently is impossible to work for the Democrats.
Insiders can't stand her and how much of a diva
(09:10):
she is, And that's putting it nicely.
Speaker 2 (09:12):
The turnover in her staff is just horrendous.
Speaker 1 (09:15):
It's basically like, you get a job working for it's
like congratulations if you start sitting out resumes. Yet it's
almost like you go to get a job with Kamwa
and then you immediately start looking for your next job
because you know you're going to want to die if
you don't get out of there quickly. Now, let's also
talk about what the US Constitution says.
Speaker 2 (09:34):
All right, this is important.
Speaker 1 (09:36):
The US Constitution dictates the vice president become president if
the president dies.
Speaker 2 (09:44):
Or becomes incapacitated.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
But it is not way in on an inner party
process for choosing a nominee at the convention. That's why
I say it's open season. So let's go through the list,
because it is bigger than Kamwa. Harris right on that
list California governor. News from that would be I think
probably the top of the list, Michigan governor because a
(10:06):
lot of people say they want a woman. By golly,
they thought it was gonna be Hillary Clinton. Break that
glass ceiling, you feminists out there, right, So Michigan Governor,
Gretchen Whitmer, Kentucky Governor Andy Masheer, Illinois governor, it's.
Speaker 2 (10:21):
J is it in it? JB? Yes? JB. Pritz Kerr.
Speaker 1 (10:26):
They've all been pushed on social media by Democrats as
possible replacements. Now they are Biden supporters and campaign surrogate
who are working to help get him elected in theory,
until the debate happened this week, and then maybe they
were like, all right, I need to start looking out
for my own best interests, not his anymore. And so
(10:46):
they may be working the phones behind the scenes.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
Now.
Speaker 1 (10:50):
The next question that people ask is this, so, how
would a nominee be chosen?
Speaker 2 (10:55):
It's a great question. This is how it's gonna work.
Speaker 1 (10:58):
There would likely be a free for all of sorts
between the Democratic heavyweights that were vying for the job.
Candidates would have to get signatures from six hundred convention
delegates to be nominated. They're expected to be about four thousand,
six hundred and seventy two delegates at the Democratic Convention
(11:19):
for this year. They're including three thousand, nine and thirty
three pledge delegates in seven hundred and thirty nine automatic
or super delegates.
Speaker 2 (11:30):
This is according to the latest numbers that we have.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
So you got to even get on the ballot. If
Biden was a step down, you'd got it. You'd have
to go to the convention, you'd have to suck up
to a bunch of people, and you'd have to get
at least six hundred signatures to be nominated. Now, once
you're nominated, you're still short of the majority, right, you
just need six hundred to get in the game. I
think most of these people will be able to pull
(11:54):
that off.
Speaker 2 (11:55):
Like Gavin News.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
Would be able to get a lot of those just
from California, A Loane Michigan governor. Whitman would be to
get a lot from her. Kentucky governor, same thing, Illinois governor,
same thing. So you'd go to your home state first
and go, hey, nominate me. I need all your signatures,
and then you'd find enough. So there's it wouldn't be
shocking if all of these people got a shot at.
Speaker 2 (12:14):
It In theory.
Speaker 1 (12:15):
It doesn't mean you're gonna get close to number needed
of delegates actually get the nomination at the convention.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
Now here's the other part that's very important. So you
know how this works.
Speaker 1 (12:25):
If no one gets a majority of the delegates, then
there would be a.
Speaker 2 (12:29):
Quote broker convention. You may have heard brokeer convention.
Speaker 1 (12:33):
It was something talked about in twenty sixteen a lot
when Donald Trump, they were talking about the possibility of
a brokered convention in Cleveland. I was there for that
when it was going on. It was insane. Now, what
is a brokered convention. It is in which the delegates
act as in essence, free agents and negotiate with a
party leadership to come up with a nominee. Now there's
(12:57):
a lot of backscratching and corruption, you would you could
call it that goes on when that happens, right, Like,
there's a delegates really important and then what happens is
some people they will team up with a and become
like a group like Latino delegates or African American delegates,
or delegates from New York or delegates from California. Why
because there's power numbers, and then it comes down to
the bigger issue of hey, what do I get in return?
(13:20):
Because I'm now way more important to you than winning
a state on Super Tuesday for example. Like, think about
the power these four thousand and six and seventy two
delegates have if some of them start teaming up into
voting box, right, well, I mean there's people that could
literally say, hey, if you could, if we give this.
Speaker 2 (13:40):
To you, I want a job at the White House
or at the.
Speaker 1 (13:44):
DoD or the FBI or the DJ whatever it may be, right,
I want to And there's and there's leaders within the
group that may bring that group together. And what they
may do is they may say, hey, I want to
be an ambassador to I don't know, like some amazing
country you know where I can just go hang out.
I want to go be a you know, open up
(14:05):
a consulate somewhere.
Speaker 2 (14:06):
For example.
Speaker 1 (14:07):
If I bring you fifteen votes or thirty votes or
sixty three votes, right, Delegates, what do I get.
Speaker 2 (14:14):
In return for that?
Speaker 3 (14:15):
Right?
Speaker 1 (14:15):
I've heard being the ambassador of Bermuda is really nice.
Would love to be an ambassador to a really chill
country for example. Now, if no one gets the majority
of the delegates, then you have the broker convention.
Speaker 2 (14:28):
Everybody's a free agents.
Speaker 1 (14:29):
Now. The rules would be established, by the way, and
there would be a rogue call vote for the names
placed into the nomination process at the convention. And this
gets insane. Why because it could take many rounds of
voting for someone to get a majority and become the
nominating I remember the House speakership fight that we had
(14:50):
recently and how crazy that got. That would look mild
in comparison to a broker convention. At the Democratic convention,
it would be insane. I've been to several, as I've
covered and had to commentate Democrat conventions. Okay, I've never
(15:11):
enjoyed going to the Democrat convention because obviously I'm an
outsider and they hate me because I'm a hardcore conservative.
But I've gone, and I can tell you if there's
a broker convention, I actually wish I was going. I
have no plans to be a Democratic convention this year,
but I'd actually regret not going and saying, all right,
I want to go and now do TV from there
and radio from there, because it's going to be so insane.
(15:34):
Now it could take several rounds. The next question is, hey,
when was the last Broker Convention. Well, the last Broker
convention when Democrats failed to nominate a candidate on the
first ballot was all the way back in nineteen fifty two.
So it's been a long time, folks since this has happened.
(15:56):
The other question I get asked, is this what happens
if Biden's steps down after the convention, not before. If
Biden steps down after the August convention, the four hundred
and thirty five members of the Democratic National Committee would
then choose a new candidate. Every one of them becomes
(16:17):
very powerful, very quickly. And the same thing that I
would expect to happen at the convention with the delegates
would happen within these members of the Democratic National Committee
because there's going to be a lot of those conversations,
what do I get, right, Hey, Gavin, you want my vote?
Speaker 2 (16:34):
What do I get? Because this is all about power.
Speaker 1 (16:37):
If you're a member of the Democratic National Committee, you're
doing it for personal gain.
Speaker 2 (16:45):
You're not doing it for like service to your country.
Speaker 1 (16:47):
Right, You're you clearly are are somebody that wants to
be involved in the Democratic Party and you want to
be powerful, and that's why you're a member.
Speaker 2 (16:57):
Well, this is what would happen.
Speaker 1 (16:59):
The members would all get together, four hundred and thirty
five of them, and they would meet in a special session,
and then they would select who the nominee would be.
Since it was after the convention, so all those delegates
of the convention basically would lose all of their power, right,
so their leverage is only good up until the end
(17:20):
of the convention.
Speaker 2 (17:20):
Once the convention's over, it's game over. Now.
Speaker 1 (17:24):
You may say, all right, well, then who the hell
are these four hundred and thirty five Democratic National Committee members.
Speaker 2 (17:30):
Well, the answer simple.
Speaker 1 (17:32):
They are divided quote equally between men and women because
Democratic Party is everything that way right, as well as
various constituency groups including labor unions and their leaders, LGBTQIA.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
Plus plus plus plus.
Speaker 1 (17:49):
Plus representatives, and racial minorities. Now, of the totals, seventy
five of these four hundred and thirty five dnc ME
members are pointed at large by the chair, while the
rest are elected in their respective state. So the argument
would be, hey, we have representation from every state in
(18:11):
America and the Democratic Committee. We all are here, Let's
decide who are nominees going to be? Now, who could
nominate an alternative in that case is the next question, right,
if there's a big fight, well, to nominate a candate
to replace Biden on the ballot, this is what has
to happen.
Speaker 2 (18:31):
Number one, the person would have to have the support.
Speaker 1 (18:33):
Of a minimum number of Democratic National Committee members. That
number and this is a guest because the number can change,
but it's going to be somewhere around at least sixty
of the four thirty five. The exact number would be determined,
by the way, by the DNC's Rules Committee, which would
lay out the rules for the proceedings before they started.
(18:56):
So there's a lot of just insanity that could happen
even there the number that most people believe would be around.
Speaker 2 (19:02):
The number would be around sixty.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
There would likely be nominating speeches by anyone that was
going to be nominated, and then seconding speeches by people
that why they're nominating the person. Now, multiple candidates, by
the way, could be nominated before the list is whittled
down to the real front runners.
Speaker 2 (19:22):
I think we all know who's going to be on
that short list.
Speaker 1 (19:25):
And then the other question is, all right, so if
we do that, then how do the votes count it?
Speaker 2 (19:30):
How does that work?
Speaker 1 (19:31):
The Democrat National Committee would hold its meeting in Washington,
they believe, right, based on everything we've been told, and
the votes would be counted there, Ballots would be coded,
they'd be signed and collected by hand. And by the way,
I bet you have to use an ID to make
sure you're voting. If not, I'm going to show up
just sa I'm a committee member and see if I
can vote, because remember Democrats.
Speaker 2 (19:52):
Don't believe in voter ID voting.
Speaker 1 (19:53):
But I bet if they're having a Democrat National Committee meeting,
you're going to have to show some form of ID
before you vote. These are going to be coded, signed,
and collected by hand. Now, if a vote were to
happen very that happened, were to happen very close to
election day, then it gets even more crazy. All right,
So election days not ever the fifth because it would
(20:16):
not be possible to meet him person. So then the
meeting would actually be viral. So you take everything that
I just told you into consideration. And what this sounds
like to many is this would be And I'm one
of those. It's whether I don't I don't care how
many Democratic journalists, Okay, I don't care how many editorial
(20:45):
boards demand that Joe Biden set down, saying it's time
for him to go, that he can't win without Joe
Biden doing it himself and walking away.
Speaker 2 (20:59):
This thing gets.
Speaker 1 (21:00):
It's really really nasty, Okay, Like, this thing gets nasty,
it gets ugly. Not only does it get ugly, but
it also I think would divide the party. You'd have
a bunch of people screaming race. Okay, You'd have a
(21:23):
bunch of people screaming, Kamala Harris deserves this and it's
owed this right like that, Like that would be a
large part of this, Like they would just say it
straight up, like, hold on, we are owed this.
Speaker 2 (21:35):
She's the one.
Speaker 1 (21:37):
If you don't pick a woman right then it's I
think it could be a huge problem as well, Like
a massive problem. So you know, I look at this
and what I see is a whole another level of corruption.
The Democratic Party would have an infighting that you couldn't
(21:58):
even imagine. And I don't believe it would be a
coronation at all, Okay, Like I think this would be
a drag out, knock down fight that could divide the
party seventeen ways to Sunday.
Speaker 2 (22:14):
That's just my gut. This would be an.
Speaker 1 (22:18):
Ugly, ugly battle, and then you'd have to sew up
the wounds, triage the Democratic Party and then try to
get them united all behind a candidate.
Speaker 2 (22:30):
That would be.
Speaker 1 (22:31):
Extremely, extremely, extremely tough job. That would be a tough
job for anybody. But look, if you're in the if
you're a feminist and they pick Gavin Newsom, you're gonna
be mad if you think a woman should be present,
you think it should be an African American woman, and
you should break that glass ceiling, which the Democratic Party
(22:52):
is absolutely obsessed with, right like they are. They're obsessed
with that, and all of a sudden it doesn't go
to Kamwa Harris. I think there's gonna be a lot
of African Americans women, specifically the BIC. I'm done, like
I'm out, I'm done, I am done with you.
Speaker 2 (23:10):
I'm gonna Now. Does that mean they're gonna vote for Trump?
Of course not. Okay, I don't think they're gonna go
vote for Trump. I just think they won't vote.
Speaker 1 (23:19):
I think they'll just go home or stay home and
they'll say I'm done with you, guys. There's also another
part right now that's important, and this is the last
aspect of this that I'm gonna mention, and that is
how much donor fatigue is there right now? How much
(23:41):
donor fatigue is there people that have given a lot
of money and raised a lot of money and given
all this cash to Joe Biden. And then you're basically
with a new candidate starting all over. So they're gonna
come running to you, going, we need a bunch of money.
Are there gonna be a lot of people They're gonna
be excited about giving major donation, right is there gonna
(24:02):
be a lot of Democrats like yep, No, I'm in
for another half a million, I'm in for another one
hundred thousand. You know, these super packs have been raising
all this money and advocating for Joe Biden. You're gonna
start all over, and so when you do, are there
going to be a bunch of donors They're willing to
go and basically revamp up a new campaign for a
(24:26):
new candidate who is in theory way behind Donald Trump.
You notice I have not mentioned Donald Trump name until
now what forty I mean minutes into this thing.
Speaker 2 (24:40):
That's how good it is.
Speaker 1 (24:41):
By the way, for Donald Trump, this is so complicated
that his name doesn't even come up until forty minutes
into the conversation. Okay, that and Democrats know this, which
then brings me to my final play. There's a chance
that Joe Biden, they could say, let's just try to
get him elected, get across the finish line, let's try
(25:04):
to do this thing, and then after we elect him,
we'll force him to step down. Or the family may
say we'll step down now. Whether you believe them or not,
that's a different conversation. Okay, whether you believe.
Speaker 2 (25:16):
Them or not, very very very very very very.
Speaker 1 (25:19):
Very different conversation. You may not believe them, but that
could be their plan. Hey, we'll get him through, we'll
try to knock this out, and then maybe he'll resign
while in office and the vice president becomes the president.
Never underestimate how disgusting and vile these people in the
(25:40):
Democratic Party are. You also have to remember their socialists,
Communists and Marxists, so they don't really care about like
screwing people, Okay, including Joe Biden. And don't think for
a moment that Joe Biden doesn't know that either. There's
an article about just how bad this and it comes
(26:01):
from David Acceroti's mastermind and behind you know Obama campaign,
and it actual goes to the story says Biden's age
would be a liability if he runs in twenty twenty four.
David Axrod says, now, this is from two years ago.
On June eleventh, twenty twenty two, it says David Axrod,
(26:21):
the chief strategist for former President Barack Obama and in
him winning two presidential campaigns, told The New York Times
an interview that Biden President Biden's age would be a
liability if he runs for a second term in twenty
twenty four. In other words, he's like shooting the flare
up in the sky. Is a major player in the
Democratic Party saying, hey, watch out, this is again two
years ago. Why it matters nearing the midterm, some Democrats
(26:46):
are growing weary Biden seeking a second term. So this
is two years ago, especially given that former President Trump
may seek to return to the White House. The Times
reports Biden has said that he intends to run in
twenty twenty four, with Vice President Kamala Harris as his
running eight, if he remains in good health and if
his predecessor runs again. Which explains so much about this mentality.
(27:08):
There is a psychoticness to Joe Biden. There's also just
a straight up narcissistic lying aspect of Joe Biden. Joe Biden,
I think is running again because Donald Trump's running again,
and he wants this war like he wants it, folks,
like he wants this war, and he hates him, and
(27:31):
he's obsessed with him, and he wants to beat him,
and he believes that this is probably the best way
to pull that off. All right, So just understand that's
driving I think a major aspect of this conversation. But
let me also go back to the media for a moment.
The media has been lying to you. Okay, they've been
(27:51):
lying to you for a long time. The media has
the are the ones that have been saying to you over
and over again for at least the last couple of
years years. Hardcore, don't believe your lying eyes. Biden's brain
is sharper than ever. Biden, doesn't you know, Fritz out.
His brain doesn't shut down like we all witness the
other night during the debate.
Speaker 2 (28:10):
They lied to you. We've got a montage.
Speaker 4 (28:13):
Listen the truth and that few If you can't handle
the truth, this version of Biden is the best Biden.
Speaker 5 (28:22):
Ever he knows so long as he was.
Speaker 2 (28:26):
In fact, I think he's better than he's ever been.
Speaker 3 (28:29):
President. Biden has a photographic memory. His understanding and mastery
of a complicated geopolitical situation remarkable.
Speaker 6 (28:38):
He is sharp, intensely probing and detail oriented and focused.
Speaker 5 (28:44):
Jackie, you hear rus Jackie, I think she was here.
Speaker 1 (28:48):
I was sitting, you know, a two feet from him
across the.
Speaker 2 (28:52):
Table, and he was, you know, intense. It's got trouble.
Speaker 4 (28:55):
Walking sometimes, Yeah, so did that pr he wanted gd war.
Speaker 2 (28:59):
But he's totally focus. He's very sharp.
Speaker 4 (29:01):
They say he's sharp in meetings and so on.
Speaker 6 (29:03):
Very lucid, little, very well done for him.
Speaker 2 (29:05):
Biden's stately. He comes with gravitas.
Speaker 6 (29:07):
There hasn't been, as far as I know, a single
claim that Biden made a mistake. Agism is an issue.
Americans have a rich history of holding people's physical characteristics
against them. Okay, you can ask African Americans.
Speaker 4 (29:22):
He's older.
Speaker 3 (29:23):
That doesn't mean that he is unfit.
Speaker 6 (29:25):
And there's a lot of ages in.
Speaker 3 (29:27):
There now, this age attack, this obsession by.
Speaker 4 (29:29):
The right, Joe Biden may not be able to speak
for himself the way that he used to.
Speaker 6 (29:33):
They want to to take on government if we get
out of line, which they're talking on again about, and
that's him lying around. I think people should be speaking
up for Joe Biden. Americans and reporters in the media
are just judging him by a physical appearance, and it's
for the unfair age is an ascent.
Speaker 2 (29:52):
He showed exactly how with it he is.
Speaker 3 (29:55):
The flip side of this coin is that he has
a tremendous amount of wisdom and experience.
Speaker 6 (30:00):
Have you heard any concerns from anyone who has met
with President Biden about him seeming a little slower?
Speaker 4 (30:07):
No more wild speculation from a bunch of people who
have probably never been in a room with Joe Biden
and certainly don't have medical degrees that I'm aware of.
Speaker 3 (30:14):
If you don't get paid for performance to be president,
you don't. The job is not a job of endurance.
I don't see Donald Trump out by riding like Joe Biden.
Speaker 4 (30:24):
It's the Hillary's email.
Speaker 5 (30:25):
All they have is that he's a He can clear
a dementia bar and that's probably a win.
Speaker 6 (30:30):
The media are not fair, and they're getting less and
less fair, and things are frightening.
Speaker 3 (30:35):
You have.
Speaker 2 (30:37):
Wall Street Journal running a horribly sourced piece saying that
Biden is unfited.
Speaker 4 (30:41):
'bus Wall Street General report about the president's acuity.
Speaker 1 (30:44):
Shoddy story by the Wall Street Journal questioning Biden's mental fitness.
Speaker 6 (30:49):
Wall Street Journal story had a lot of flaws, as
you said. But Sinclair, they didn't do any original reporting,
they didn't follow up, they didn't do any work.
Speaker 5 (30:57):
Here the day is hersh gover poling, and still he
is not here with us, but he's still being held
by a moat.
Speaker 4 (31:05):
But a huge part of the Mulla report talks about
Russian disinformation tactics, and one of the things this election
cycle is that Joe Biden is too old to lead,
and so everyone is seizing upon this and it is
a classic disinformation tactic. And I think the best thing
that we can do is to prepare the American people
for this false narrative.
Speaker 1 (31:23):
I mean, these people are just flat out scumbags. They
are just scum bags, and they will sit there and
they will lie, and they will cover up, and they
will lie when the Democratic Party needs them to. Whether
it's the Steele dossier, whether it's the Hunter Biden laptop,
whether it's Russian collusion. They will lie and they will
(31:47):
look at you in your face and they will lie
to your face and they will tell you, no, no, it's
not raining outside, even though it's like a hurricane outside. Now, No, no,
it's sunny outside. Like they will carry water for this guy,
Joe Biden until they couldn't. And now they're worried about
losing power, and they're they're they're worried about losing their
(32:10):
access to power. So now they're saying, Okay, let's pick
the next king so we have access to power moving forward.
And they've known the entire time they're lying to you.
They've known it the entire time they've been lying to you.
They knew they were lying to you every second they
(32:32):
were telling you this crap. They knew that they were
full of it, and they were good with it. Folks,
they get off on it. This is like their pride
and joy picking and choosing who they believe should be
the president of the United States America and power brokering
it right like I mean, it's it is and you
(32:56):
play that and by the way, it should be played
over and over and over and over and over and
over and over and over and over again.
Speaker 2 (33:04):
It should be.
Speaker 5 (33:05):
It should be played over and over again, and the
reason why is because these scumbags deserve, in my opinion,
to be held accountable for this.
Speaker 2 (33:18):
All right.

The fallout from the debate this past week continues, and
there are a lot of people that have been asking
me what is going to happen, And there's a lot
of different scenarios. So I'm going to break it down
for you so you understand exactly what could happen here.
Speaker 2 (00:19):
After what was.
Speaker 1 (00:20):
Described by Reuters as the president's quote shaky performance at
the debate with Donald Trump on Thursday night, Democrats then
began to openly question whether he should be replaced as
a candidate for the twenty twenty four election. There is
a process for doing so, but to be very clear
(00:42):
so everyone understands that process, it's going to be extremely messy.
Speaker 2 (00:48):
The other question is how does it work.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
Reuters spoke with a senior fellow at the brookings In
think Tank, a Democratic National Committee member and the author
of the book Primary Politics, about the presidential nominating process,
and they asked the question that everyone's asking, how would
it work? So what options do the Democrats have? Let's
start with that the Democratic Party has had no real
(01:15):
plan B for Biden.
Speaker 2 (01:19):
As its presidential candidate.
Speaker 1 (01:21):
He ran virtually unopposed for the party's presidential nomination. They
decided that they decided to basically shut everybody out, tell
everybody not to run against him in a primary. He
will not be nominated officially however, until later this summer
at the Democratic National Convention. So the reality is, yes,
(01:41):
there is still time to make a change. And then
that's where the handful yeah, not one or two, but
a handful of scenarios become possible realities. Now here's the
easiest path to replace Joe Biden. So you understand, Biden
could just say by himself. And as you know, there's
(02:02):
reports that he's having a meeting with his closest advisors
and his family Sunday right, had this big meeting that
they put out to decide and to talk about the
future of the campaign.
Speaker 2 (02:17):
There could be and we're hearing that.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
Quote the money has dried up, people are not willing
to give. They also are going to be looking at
polling and internal polling numbers decide is there a pathway
for the president and not just a pathway, but is
there a way that they could turn this ship around
after the dismal performance. Now, I will say this to
(02:39):
be clear, Joe Biden and the team made sure that
Joe Biden was out there right after these debates and
not into hiding like he usually is. I've seen more
of Joe Biden in the past week than I have
seen probably in the last six months.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
Joe Biden is out.
Speaker 1 (02:56):
There, and they're treating him like he is a candidate
right now, now running for office. Now he may actually
have to be a real candidate now, not just kind
of show up here and there.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
He's gonna have to.
Speaker 1 (03:08):
Go full speed ahead and look at a lot of
donors in the eyes, and meet with a lot of
people and ask for a lot of favors. He's not
gonna be able to just do this by sitting at
the White House taking naps and working a noon to
force schedule. So again, Biden could just straight up decide himself,
I'm gonna step aside before I'm nominated at the convention.
(03:29):
He could be challenged by the way by others who
try to win over the delegates that he has accrued,
and that would be basically like a coup attempt by
the Democratic Party internally. Or he could withdraw after the
Democratic conventions in Chicago in August, leaving the Democratic National
Committee to elect someone.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
To run against Trump in his place.
Speaker 1 (03:52):
So those are the real scenarios that are at play here.
So the next question is, obviously this happens next, Well,
right now, the process largely depends on Joe Biden. So
what I would say is, it doesn't really matter what
any of the Democrats say.
Speaker 2 (04:10):
It's going to be up to Joe Biden.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
Now he would have to agree to step down or
face a challenger this late in the process, who would
then try to force him to then basically get out
of the rates. Biden and the team around him so
far have shown zero indications except for this meeting with
a family, and that could just be to say, hey,
we've met, we decided we're going to stick in this thing.
(04:33):
But we had a serious meeting to placate some Democrats
that are losing their minds. But in reality, every signal
is going to Joe Biden is not wanting to step aside,
and no opponents have said they would come and challenge
him directly at the convention. In fact, there haven't even
been leaks of those types of conversations, So that should
(04:54):
also tell you something. Now you've got to ask yourself
then this question, who would even his top political opponents
in the Democratic Party is potential replacements be whether and
I'm not rooting for these people.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
I'm just telling you the reality.
Speaker 1 (05:13):
Number one would be Vice President Kamala Harris. Because she
is the Vice President, she's second in line, she's already.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
Running with him.
Speaker 1 (05:22):
It would make sense that Kamala Harris would be the nominee.
The problem is she's hated by many Democrats and the
polling numbers for her are absolutely dismal. So again, she's
number one in theory on paper. Then number two would
obviously be California Governor Gavin Newsom. The problem with Gavin
(05:44):
Newsom is you would be basically replacing an African American
woman with a white.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
Rich dude from California.
Speaker 1 (05:51):
I don't know how that's going to go over with
minority voters, specifically African Americans and women in the Democratic Party.
That's number two now, Gavin Newsom. Just to be clear,
and some would say this was him being a good soldier,
but he spoke passionately in his defense after the debate,
(06:13):
serving as a surrogate role and showcasing his support. Now,
he also I think looked really good to Democrats. It
saw him because he contrasted what Joe Biden had just done.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
On stage and was faltering.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
So one looks crisp and clean and new and energetic
in Newsom, and the other looks old seen island. Well,
I mean lost his dead gumb mine. Now here's the
other question. What happens if Joe Biden steps down? He
just comes out and says, all right, I'm out. It's
(06:48):
a fair question. The answer Biden has spent the last
several months accruing about four thousand Democratic delegates by winning
primary election in US states and territories. Those delegates would
normally vote for him, but the rules do not bind
or force them to do so. Delegates of the convention
(07:11):
can vote with their conscience, which means they can throw
their vote to someone else. So if Biden says, hey,
I'm releasing the delegates. Okay, all four thousand plus of you,
I'm releasing you, and I'm going to release you, and
you get to step I'm gonna step aside, then there
could be a throwdown competition among other Democratic candidates become
(07:35):
the nominee. In theory, at the Democratic Convention that would
play out like a movie that could be good or
bad for the Democrats, depending on if they do it well.
Speaker 2 (07:43):
If there's a grand debate.
Speaker 1 (07:44):
It could help the person coming out of there, or
it could completely divide the Democratic Party and ruin their
chances come November. It's a very risky game, So that
would be the easiest, easiest path. Biden releases the delegates,
them stepping aside, and there could.
Speaker 2 (08:02):
Be a coronation.
Speaker 1 (08:04):
They could say it's gonna be Kama and that could
be the end of that. Or they could say it's
gonna be Gavin Newsom, or there could be an all
out war. But ultimately it's gonna come down to Biden.
In that scenario, who would replace Joe Biden. Several candidates
could step into the fray. There is obviously no number one.
(08:27):
Kama Harris would be in theory the number one. I
mentioned that a moment ago, but she doesn't really She's
not really number one because people don't really like her.
And so Harris would almost certainly be at the top
of the list just because she's the vice president. It's
the natural progression of power and the Democratic Party when
they ran, it's like, well, she would be a great
(08:48):
vice president in case thing happened in the president right,
Like it's all there on paper, But she's got her
own problems. She's got her own problems at a rocky start.
She can't keep people around to work for her. That's
another problem. She apparently is impossible to work for the Democrats.
Insiders can't stand her and how much of a diva
(09:10):
she is, And that's putting it nicely.
Speaker 2 (09:12):
The turnover in her staff is just horrendous.
Speaker 1 (09:15):
It's basically like, you get a job working for it's
like congratulations if you start sitting out resumes. Yet it's
almost like you go to get a job with Kamwa
and then you immediately start looking for your next job
because you know you're going to want to die if
you don't get out of there quickly. Now, let's also
talk about what the US Constitution says.
Speaker 2 (09:34):
All right, this is important.
Speaker 1 (09:36):
The US Constitution dictates the vice president become president if
the president dies.
Speaker 2 (09:44):
Or becomes incapacitated.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
But it is not way in on an inner party
process for choosing a nominee at the convention. That's why
I say it's open season. So let's go through the list,
because it is bigger than Kamwa. Harris right on that
list California governor. News from that would be I think
probably the top of the list, Michigan governor because a
(10:06):
lot of people say they want a woman. By golly,
they thought it was gonna be Hillary Clinton. Break that
glass ceiling, you feminists out there, right, So Michigan Governor,
Gretchen Whitmer, Kentucky Governor Andy Masheer, Illinois governor, it's.
Speaker 2 (10:21):
J is it in it? JB? Yes? JB. Pritz Kerr.
Speaker 1 (10:26):
They've all been pushed on social media by Democrats as
possible replacements. Now they are Biden supporters and campaign surrogate
who are working to help get him elected in theory,
until the debate happened this week, and then maybe they
were like, all right, I need to start looking out
for my own best interests, not his anymore. And so
(10:46):
they may be working the phones behind the scenes.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
Now.
Speaker 1 (10:50):
The next question that people ask is this, so, how
would a nominee be chosen?
Speaker 2 (10:55):
It's a great question. This is how it's gonna work.
Speaker 1 (10:58):
There would likely be a free for all of sorts
between the Democratic heavyweights that were vying for the job.
Candidates would have to get signatures from six hundred convention
delegates to be nominated. They're expected to be about four thousand,
six hundred and seventy two delegates at the Democratic Convention
(11:19):
for this year. They're including three thousand, nine and thirty
three pledge delegates in seven hundred and thirty nine automatic
or super delegates.
Speaker 2 (11:30):
This is according to the latest numbers that we have.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
So you got to even get on the ballot. If
Biden was a step down, you'd got it. You'd have
to go to the convention, you'd have to suck up
to a bunch of people, and you'd have to get
at least six hundred signatures to be nominated. Now, once
you're nominated, you're still short of the majority, right, you
just need six hundred to get in the game. I
think most of these people will be able to pull
(11:54):
that off.
Speaker 2 (11:55):
Like Gavin News.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
Would be able to get a lot of those just
from California, A Loane Michigan governor. Whitman would be to
get a lot from her. Kentucky governor, same thing, Illinois governor,
same thing. So you'd go to your home state first
and go, hey, nominate me. I need all your signatures,
and then you'd find enough. So there's it wouldn't be
shocking if all of these people got a shot at.
Speaker 2 (12:14):
It In theory.
Speaker 1 (12:15):
It doesn't mean you're gonna get close to number needed
of delegates actually get the nomination at the convention.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
Now here's the other part that's very important. So you
know how this works.
Speaker 1 (12:25):
If no one gets a majority of the delegates, then
there would be a.
Speaker 2 (12:29):
Quote broker convention. You may have heard brokeer convention.
Speaker 1 (12:33):
It was something talked about in twenty sixteen a lot
when Donald Trump, they were talking about the possibility of
a brokered convention in Cleveland. I was there for that
when it was going on. It was insane. Now, what
is a brokered convention. It is in which the delegates
act as in essence, free agents and negotiate with a
party leadership to come up with a nominee. Now there's
(12:57):
a lot of backscratching and corruption, you would you could
call it that goes on when that happens, right, Like,
there's a delegates really important and then what happens is
some people they will team up with a and become
like a group like Latino delegates or African American delegates,
or delegates from New York or delegates from California. Why
because there's power numbers, and then it comes down to
the bigger issue of hey, what do I get in return?
(13:20):
Because I'm now way more important to you than winning
a state on Super Tuesday for example. Like, think about
the power these four thousand and six and seventy two
delegates have if some of them start teaming up into
voting box, right, well, I mean there's people that could
literally say, hey, if you could, if we give this.
Speaker 2 (13:40):
To you, I want a job at the White House
or at the.
Speaker 1 (13:44):
DoD or the FBI or the DJ whatever it may be, right,
I want to And there's and there's leaders within the
group that may bring that group together. And what they
may do is they may say, hey, I want to
be an ambassador to I don't know, like some amazing
country you know where I can just go hang out.
I want to go be a you know, open up
(14:05):
a consulate somewhere.
Speaker 2 (14:06):
For example.
Speaker 1 (14:07):
If I bring you fifteen votes or thirty votes or
sixty three votes, right, Delegates, what do I get.
Speaker 2 (14:14):
In return for that?
Speaker 3 (14:15):
Right?
Speaker 1 (14:15):
I've heard being the ambassador of Bermuda is really nice.
Would love to be an ambassador to a really chill
country for example. Now, if no one gets the majority
of the delegates, then you have the broker convention.
Speaker 2 (14:28):
Everybody's a free agents.
Speaker 1 (14:29):
Now. The rules would be established, by the way, and
there would be a rogue call vote for the names
placed into the nomination process at the convention. And this
gets insane. Why because it could take many rounds of
voting for someone to get a majority and become the
nominating I remember the House speakership fight that we had
(14:50):
recently and how crazy that got. That would look mild
in comparison to a broker convention. At the Democratic convention,
it would be insane. I've been to several, as I've
covered and had to commentate Democrat conventions. Okay, I've never
(15:11):
enjoyed going to the Democrat convention because obviously I'm an
outsider and they hate me because I'm a hardcore conservative.
But I've gone, and I can tell you if there's
a broker convention, I actually wish I was going. I
have no plans to be a Democratic convention this year,
but I'd actually regret not going and saying, all right,
I want to go and now do TV from there
and radio from there, because it's going to be so insane.
(15:34):
Now it could take several rounds. The next question is, hey,
when was the last Broker Convention. Well, the last Broker
convention when Democrats failed to nominate a candidate on the
first ballot was all the way back in nineteen fifty two.
So it's been a long time, folks since this has happened.
(15:56):
The other question I get asked, is this what happens
if Biden's steps down after the convention, not before. If
Biden steps down after the August convention, the four hundred
and thirty five members of the Democratic National Committee would
then choose a new candidate. Every one of them becomes
(16:17):
very powerful, very quickly. And the same thing that I
would expect to happen at the convention with the delegates
would happen within these members of the Democratic National Committee
because there's going to be a lot of those conversations,
what do I get, right, Hey, Gavin, you want my vote?
Speaker 2 (16:34):
What do I get? Because this is all about power.
Speaker 1 (16:37):
If you're a member of the Democratic National Committee, you're
doing it for personal gain.
Speaker 2 (16:45):
You're not doing it for like service to your country.
Speaker 1 (16:47):
Right, You're you clearly are are somebody that wants to
be involved in the Democratic Party and you want to
be powerful, and that's why you're a member.
Speaker 2 (16:57):
Well, this is what would happen.
Speaker 1 (16:59):
The members would all get together, four hundred and thirty
five of them, and they would meet in a special session,
and then they would select who the nominee would be.
Since it was after the convention, so all those delegates
of the convention basically would lose all of their power, right,
so their leverage is only good up until the end
(17:20):
of the convention.
Speaker 2 (17:20):
Once the convention's over, it's game over. Now.
Speaker 1 (17:24):
You may say, all right, well, then who the hell
are these four hundred and thirty five Democratic National Committee members.
Speaker 2 (17:30):
Well, the answer simple.
Speaker 1 (17:32):
They are divided quote equally between men and women because
Democratic Party is everything that way right, as well as
various constituency groups including labor unions and their leaders, LGBTQIA.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
Plus plus plus plus.
Speaker 1 (17:49):
Plus representatives, and racial minorities. Now, of the totals, seventy
five of these four hundred and thirty five dnc ME
members are pointed at large by the chair, while the
rest are elected in their respective state. So the argument
would be, hey, we have representation from every state in
(18:11):
America and the Democratic Committee. We all are here, Let's
decide who are nominees going to be? Now, who could
nominate an alternative in that case is the next question, right,
if there's a big fight, well, to nominate a candate
to replace Biden on the ballot, this is what has
to happen.
Speaker 2 (18:31):
Number one, the person would have to have the support.
Speaker 1 (18:33):
Of a minimum number of Democratic National Committee members. That
number and this is a guest because the number can change,
but it's going to be somewhere around at least sixty
of the four thirty five. The exact number would be determined,
by the way, by the DNC's Rules Committee, which would
lay out the rules for the proceedings before they started.
(18:56):
So there's a lot of just insanity that could happen
even there the number that most people believe would be around.
Speaker 2 (19:02):
The number would be around sixty.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
There would likely be nominating speeches by anyone that was
going to be nominated, and then seconding speeches by people
that why they're nominating the person. Now, multiple candidates, by
the way, could be nominated before the list is whittled
down to the real front runners.
Speaker 2 (19:22):
I think we all know who's going to be on
that short list.
Speaker 1 (19:25):
And then the other question is, all right, so if
we do that, then how do the votes count it?
Speaker 2 (19:30):
How does that work?
Speaker 1 (19:31):
The Democrat National Committee would hold its meeting in Washington,
they believe, right, based on everything we've been told, and
the votes would be counted there, Ballots would be coded,
they'd be signed and collected by hand. And by the way,
I bet you have to use an ID to make
sure you're voting. If not, I'm going to show up
just sa I'm a committee member and see if I
can vote, because remember Democrats.
Speaker 2 (19:52):
Don't believe in voter ID voting.
Speaker 1 (19:53):
But I bet if they're having a Democrat National Committee meeting,
you're going to have to show some form of ID
before you vote. These are going to be coded, signed,
and collected by hand. Now, if a vote were to
happen very that happened, were to happen very close to
election day, then it gets even more crazy. All right,
So election days not ever the fifth because it would
(20:16):
not be possible to meet him person. So then the
meeting would actually be viral. So you take everything that
I just told you into consideration. And what this sounds
like to many is this would be And I'm one
of those. It's whether I don't I don't care how
many Democratic journalists, Okay, I don't care how many editorial
(20:45):
boards demand that Joe Biden set down, saying it's time
for him to go, that he can't win without Joe
Biden doing it himself and walking away.
Speaker 2 (20:59):
This thing gets.
Speaker 1 (21:00):
It's really really nasty, Okay, Like, this thing gets nasty,
it gets ugly. Not only does it get ugly, but
it also I think would divide the party. You'd have
a bunch of people screaming race. Okay, You'd have a
(21:23):
bunch of people screaming, Kamala Harris deserves this and it's
owed this right like that, Like that would be a
large part of this, Like they would just say it
straight up, like, hold on, we are owed this.
Speaker 2 (21:35):
She's the one.
Speaker 1 (21:37):
If you don't pick a woman right then it's I
think it could be a huge problem as well, Like
a massive problem. So you know, I look at this
and what I see is a whole another level of corruption.
The Democratic Party would have an infighting that you couldn't
(21:58):
even imagine. And I don't believe it would be a
coronation at all, Okay, Like I think this would be
a drag out, knock down fight that could divide the
party seventeen ways to Sunday.
Speaker 2 (22:14):
That's just my gut. This would be an.
Speaker 1 (22:18):
Ugly, ugly battle, and then you'd have to sew up
the wounds, triage the Democratic Party and then try to
get them united all behind a candidate.
Speaker 2 (22:30):
That would be.
Speaker 1 (22:31):
Extremely, extremely, extremely tough job. That would be a tough
job for anybody. But look, if you're in the if
you're a feminist and they pick Gavin Newsom, you're gonna
be mad if you think a woman should be present,
you think it should be an African American woman, and
you should break that glass ceiling, which the Democratic Party
(22:52):
is absolutely obsessed with, right like they are. They're obsessed
with that, and all of a sudden it doesn't go
to Kamwa Harris. I think there's gonna be a lot
of African Americans women, specifically the BIC. I'm done, like
I'm out, I'm done, I am done with you.
Speaker 2 (23:10):
I'm gonna Now. Does that mean they're gonna vote for Trump?
Of course not. Okay, I don't think they're gonna go
vote for Trump. I just think they won't vote.
Speaker 1 (23:19):
I think they'll just go home or stay home and
they'll say I'm done with you, guys. There's also another
part right now that's important, and this is the last
aspect of this that I'm gonna mention, and that is
how much donor fatigue is there right now? How much
(23:41):
donor fatigue is there people that have given a lot
of money and raised a lot of money and given
all this cash to Joe Biden. And then you're basically
with a new candidate starting all over. So they're gonna
come running to you, going, we need a bunch of money.
Are there gonna be a lot of people They're gonna
be excited about giving major donation, right is there gonna
(24:02):
be a lot of Democrats like yep, No, I'm in
for another half a million, I'm in for another one
hundred thousand. You know, these super packs have been raising
all this money and advocating for Joe Biden. You're gonna
start all over, and so when you do, are there
going to be a bunch of donors They're willing to
go and basically revamp up a new campaign for a
(24:26):
new candidate who is in theory way behind Donald Trump.
You notice I have not mentioned Donald Trump name until
now what forty I mean minutes into this thing.
Speaker 2 (24:40):
That's how good it is.
Speaker 1 (24:41):
By the way, for Donald Trump, this is so complicated
that his name doesn't even come up until forty minutes
into the conversation. Okay, that and Democrats know this, which
then brings me to my final play. There's a chance
that Joe Biden, they could say, let's just try to
get him elected, get across the finish line, let's try
(25:04):
to do this thing, and then after we elect him,
we'll force him to step down. Or the family may
say we'll step down now. Whether you believe them or not,
that's a different conversation. Okay, whether you believe.
Speaker 2 (25:16):
Them or not, very very very very very very.
Speaker 1 (25:19):
Very different conversation. You may not believe them, but that
could be their plan. Hey, we'll get him through, we'll
try to knock this out, and then maybe he'll resign
while in office and the vice president becomes the president.
Never underestimate how disgusting and vile these people in the
(25:40):
Democratic Party are. You also have to remember their socialists,
Communists and Marxists, so they don't really care about like
screwing people, Okay, including Joe Biden. And don't think for
a moment that Joe Biden doesn't know that either. There's
an article about just how bad this and it comes
(26:01):
from David Acceroti's mastermind and behind you know Obama campaign,
and it actual goes to the story says Biden's age
would be a liability if he runs in twenty twenty four.
David Axrod says, now, this is from two years ago.
On June eleventh, twenty twenty two, it says David Axrod,
(26:21):
the chief strategist for former President Barack Obama and in
him winning two presidential campaigns, told The New York Times
an interview that Biden President Biden's age would be a
liability if he runs for a second term in twenty
twenty four. In other words, he's like shooting the flare
up in the sky. Is a major player in the
Democratic Party saying, hey, watch out, this is again two
years ago. Why it matters nearing the midterm, some Democrats
(26:46):
are growing weary Biden seeking a second term. So this
is two years ago, especially given that former President Trump
may seek to return to the White House. The Times
reports Biden has said that he intends to run in
twenty twenty four, with Vice President Kamala Harris as his
running eight, if he remains in good health and if
his predecessor runs again. Which explains so much about this mentality.
(27:08):
There is a psychoticness to Joe Biden. There's also just
a straight up narcissistic lying aspect of Joe Biden. Joe Biden,
I think is running again because Donald Trump's running again,
and he wants this war like he wants it, folks,
like he wants this war, and he hates him, and
(27:31):
he's obsessed with him, and he wants to beat him,
and he believes that this is probably the best way
to pull that off. All right, So just understand that's
driving I think a major aspect of this conversation. But
let me also go back to the media for a moment.
The media has been lying to you. Okay, they've been
(27:51):
lying to you for a long time. The media has
the are the ones that have been saying to you over
and over again for at least the last couple of
years years. Hardcore, don't believe your lying eyes. Biden's brain
is sharper than ever. Biden, doesn't you know, Fritz out.
His brain doesn't shut down like we all witness the
other night during the debate.
Speaker 2 (28:10):
They lied to you. We've got a montage.
Speaker 4 (28:13):
Listen the truth and that few If you can't handle
the truth, this version of Biden is the best Biden.
Speaker 5 (28:22):
Ever he knows so long as he was.
Speaker 2 (28:26):
In fact, I think he's better than he's ever been.
Speaker 3 (28:29):
President. Biden has a photographic memory. His understanding and mastery
of a complicated geopolitical situation remarkable.
Speaker 6 (28:38):
He is sharp, intensely probing and detail oriented and focused.
Speaker 5 (28:44):
Jackie, you hear rus Jackie, I think she was here.
Speaker 1 (28:48):
I was sitting, you know, a two feet from him
across the.
Speaker 2 (28:52):
Table, and he was, you know, intense. It's got trouble.
Speaker 4 (28:55):
Walking sometimes, Yeah, so did that pr he wanted gd war.
Speaker 2 (28:59):
But he's totally focus. He's very sharp.
Speaker 4 (29:01):
They say he's sharp in meetings and so on.
Speaker 6 (29:03):
Very lucid, little, very well done for him.
Speaker 2 (29:05):
Biden's stately. He comes with gravitas.
Speaker 6 (29:07):
There hasn't been, as far as I know, a single
claim that Biden made a mistake. Agism is an issue.
Americans have a rich history of holding people's physical characteristics
against them. Okay, you can ask African Americans.
Speaker 4 (29:22):
He's older.
Speaker 3 (29:23):
That doesn't mean that he is unfit.
Speaker 6 (29:25):
And there's a lot of ages in.
Speaker 3 (29:27):
There now, this age attack, this obsession by.
Speaker 4 (29:29):
The right, Joe Biden may not be able to speak
for himself the way that he used to.
Speaker 6 (29:33):
They want to to take on government if we get
out of line, which they're talking on again about, and
that's him lying around. I think people should be speaking
up for Joe Biden. Americans and reporters in the media
are just judging him by a physical appearance, and it's
for the unfair age is an ascent.
Speaker 2 (29:52):
He showed exactly how with it he is.
Speaker 3 (29:55):
The flip side of this coin is that he has
a tremendous amount of wisdom and experience.
Speaker 6 (30:00):
Have you heard any concerns from anyone who has met
with President Biden about him seeming a little slower?
Speaker 4 (30:07):
No more wild speculation from a bunch of people who
have probably never been in a room with Joe Biden
and certainly don't have medical degrees that I'm aware of.
Speaker 3 (30:14):
If you don't get paid for performance to be president,
you don't. The job is not a job of endurance.
I don't see Donald Trump out by riding like Joe Biden.
Speaker 4 (30:24):
It's the Hillary's email.
Speaker 5 (30:25):
All they have is that he's a He can clear
a dementia bar and that's probably a win.
Speaker 6 (30:30):
The media are not fair, and they're getting less and
less fair, and things are frightening.
Speaker 3 (30:35):
You have.
Speaker 2 (30:37):
Wall Street Journal running a horribly sourced piece saying that
Biden is unfited.
Speaker 4 (30:41):
'bus Wall Street General report about the president's acuity.
Speaker 1 (30:44):
Shoddy story by the Wall Street Journal questioning Biden's mental fitness.
Speaker 6 (30:49):
Wall Street Journal story had a lot of flaws, as
you said. But Sinclair, they didn't do any original reporting,
they didn't follow up, they didn't do any work.
Speaker 5 (30:57):
Here the day is hersh gover poling, and still he
is not here with us, but he's still being held
by a moat.
Speaker 4 (31:05):
But a huge part of the Mulla report talks about
Russian disinformation tactics, and one of the things this election
cycle is that Joe Biden is too old to lead,
and so everyone is seizing upon this and it is
a classic disinformation tactic. And I think the best thing
that we can do is to prepare the American people
for this false narrative.
Speaker 1 (31:23):
I mean, these people are just flat out scumbags. They
are just scum bags, and they will sit there and
they will lie, and they will cover up, and they
will lie when the Democratic Party needs them to. Whether
it's the Steele dossier, whether it's the Hunter Biden laptop,
whether it's Russian collusion. They will lie and they will
(31:47):
look at you in your face and they will lie
to your face and they will tell you, no, no, it's
not raining outside, even though it's like a hurricane outside. Now, No, no,
it's sunny outside. Like they will carry water for this guy,
Joe Biden until they couldn't. And now they're worried about
losing power, and they're they're they're worried about losing their
(32:10):
access to power. So now they're saying, Okay, let's pick
the next king so we have access to power moving forward.
And they've known the entire time they're lying to you.
They've known it the entire time they've been lying to you.
They knew they were lying to you every second they
(32:32):
were telling you this crap. They knew that they were
full of it, and they were good with it. Folks,
they get off on it. This is like their pride
and joy picking and choosing who they believe should be
the president of the United States America and power brokering
it right like I mean, it's it is and you
(32:56):
play that and by the way, it should be played
over and over and over and over and over and
over and over and over and over again.
Speaker 2 (33:04):
It should be.
Speaker 5 (33:05):
It should be played over and over again, and the
reason why is because these scumbags deserve, in my opinion,
to be held accountable for this.
Speaker 2 (33:18):
All right.
