11-11-24 - 7am - Campaign 'Consulting'

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
So Kamala got a billion dollars in campaign funds that
ran into a deficit. Then you have to ask yourself
why did Oprah need a million dollars to endorse Kamala. Oh,
she went to save democracy by endorsing Kamala, but she
wants it, going to do it for free. Then you
have the ten millions she paid Beyonce who didn't perform.

(00:23):
At what point is this just money laundering and paid endorsements.

Speaker 2 (00:29):
Well that's interesting because that kind of feeds into the
next thing I want to talk about. So the Democrats
raised and spent I mean historic amounts of money on

(00:49):
their failed presidential campaign. Now, the way this works is
pretty It's it's like anything else you got overhead, right,
but some overhead is more equal than other overhead. When
you give a dollar to a campaign, and that let's
say that the campaign is sent you a fundraising email

(01:13):
that or in in modern times, you get a text
message I'm still getting I shouldn't say still. I haven't today,
but over the weekend, I'm still getting text messages about
the stupid Kate Senate race down in Arizona. Carry Lake's
still begging for money. I still don't think at least

(01:34):
I have in checked this morning, but as of last
night that race had still not been called. Carry Lake
and reubyen Gagles. That Senate race is still is still
going on. By the way, the Caravel Race and gave
Evans race was called late yesterday afternoon. Caravel was conceded.

(01:54):
Gave Evans is and which makes Colorhill's congressional delegation fifty
to fifty. Kyle Clark tweeted out about it. You can
just tell by Kyle Clark's tweet yesterday about it that
he was a little distraught over it, which I found
kind of freaking hilarious. But because he talked about, here's
a state that goes eleven points uh in favor of

(02:15):
of of Kamala Harris, yet has a fifty to fifty
congressional delegation. Well that's because I think uh Adiro Caravelle
ran one of the most disingenuous and dishonest campaigns of
all of the ones that I observed around the country.

(02:36):
She and that sheriff, I forget where the sheriff from here?
Was he the Rapo County sheriff, You know, the Rapole
County sheriff's alf doesn't exactly have the greatest reputation in
the world, considering what was that old sheriff's name that was?
That was the drug and prostitution dealer? What was that?
Remember that sheriff Dragon, you're looking at the wrong guy.
That's right. You were there on the third floor at

(02:57):
that time, even although I would have thought that would
have been a third floor topic at the time, What
was that guy? Somebody remind somebody sent me a text message,
reminded what that what that sheriff's name was? Memor me, kay,
he was? He was. He was dealing in, like I
don't know, drugs and uh, prostitution and all sorts of
like really bad stuff. But uh, Carroll Vale drags on,

(03:22):
whoever the carrot sheriff is out, talks about how she's
so strong in law enforcement and how you know she
voted against her party because she voted to increase the
number of of of ice agents and stuff. Well they're
talking about that stupid bill that Democrats rejected. She voted
for that, so she can. I mean, that's why that
bill was presented in the first place, the bill that

(03:44):
you know. Kamala Harris kept saying you know, well, when
I get in office, that's the first thing I'm gonna do. Well,
sweethearty didn't pass to begin with, and your own party
was someone that rejected him. But Carroll Vale kept trying
to portray herself as someone who would who would not
always vote with her party, when indeed she voted with
her party over ninety percent of the time. But the

(04:06):
point is that it shows that in Colorado there is
still a glit, there's still a tiny glimmer of hope
that because stop and think about this, the Democrats controlled reapportionment,
the drawing of congressional districts. They can't even do that

(04:28):
very well, so that we end up with a fifty
to fifty delegation half Republicans, half Democrats in a state
that is truly blue. So there is there's some hope.
But it goes back to the point about money. You
don't Money's not always the deciding factor, but oftentimes it is.

(04:51):
So when you give. You know how I talk about
when you give, when you pay a dollar of income tax,
and that dollar is going to be used for the
Department of Education, well before it ever gets into a classroom.
If your particular dollar ever even makes it into a classroom.
First gets eaten up by the bureaucracy. Well, when I

(05:15):
get text messages that say, hey, you know, can you
spare five dollars because we're trying to raise X number
of dollars so we can buy a bunch of campaign commercials,
the very first thing I think about is, yes, if
I sent you five dollars, at least I want to
be reasonable here, five dollars would be at least a

(05:39):
buck fifty, if not two dollars of that five dollars
is going to go to consultants, and then another dollar
is going to go to the person that does the
media buy, and then some of it's going to go
to the person that you know produces and the creative
and then the production of the commercial and all of that.

(06:01):
So that dollar that what that five dollars I give
to a campaign, is going to get eaten up by
an array of consultants and highly paid operatives, including media buyers.
A campaign can be as bureaucratic as a government agency.

(06:22):
So when the Democrats raised all this historic amounts of
money on their failed presidential campaign, a lot of that
money went to an array of consultants and a bunch
of highly paid operatives. They spent well over a billion dollars,
while their super pack Future Forward contributed more than seven
hundred million dollars to the campaign. Now, the total tally

(06:44):
from all of the other Democratic packs focused on the
race is not yet available yet. The result, whatever that
number ends up being, which is going to be well
over a billion dollars, was a catastrophe for the Democrats
across the board, not just at the national level, but
across the board. In that in face of that onslaught

(07:09):
of that flood of money, Donald Trump mobilized a coalition
not of consultants, how he paid operaties, although he did
have consultants, and he had he did have operatives. Trump
was able to mobilize a coalition of working class, multi
racial support, convincing Arabs, Latinos, Native Americans, Asian, black voters,

(07:31):
white voters, young voters, old voters, I mean, the entire
political spectrum. In response to that building of a coalition,
you no footnote here. Yesterday tamar And and the name
will go unnamed, but tamer And I had to replace

(07:52):
the refrigerator yesterday, dragging. It's so wonderful when you're just
you know, enjoying your day, you're not walking the dogs,
and you get a text that says the refrigerator is dead,
and you know that you already start thinking what do
refrigerators Costata? I had this problem what eight months ago

(08:14):
and nine months ago? Yeah, it was yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1 (08:18):
Spent more, got less.

Speaker 2 (08:22):
What I found interesting yesterday was at the place we
went to look, our current refrigerator sticks out beyond the
edge of the countertop of the cabinet. Uh huh, And
that was and one the exact same size cubic feet
and everything else was a certain dollar amount. But if

(08:44):
we wanted less yep, so that it was flush with
the cabinets and the countertop, that costs more. Yep. That's
exactly what we did too. So yeah, I looked at
Tamer and said, I don't want less, I want the same.
So we're gonna pay less to get more. You paying
more to get more? Yeah, well, actually pay more to

(09:08):
get paid less to get more. Well in comparison to
what that fridge was when you got it, well for
true true. Yeah. Although although our timing was good because
the Black Friday sales are on oh lucky you. Yeah,
and we got a bespoke model I just laughed. So
the sales guy is describing the different you know, because

(09:31):
hammer kindles which brand she likes, which one she wants
to use. You know, she's done her research about the
most reliable and blah blahlah blah. And so now we're
looking at all those different brands and we get around
to that that particular brand she's looking at, and here's
this model in this model, and this model, and then
we get to the one on the end, which really
is kind of cool looking, but it's called bespoke, which

(09:53):
means that you like, kind of like Taylor made. It's like, seriously,
the marketing that goes on for the idiots in the
world are just amazing. Although we were idiots because we
bought the bespoke model, but we bought the bespoke model
because she liked the layout of everything in it. So
and I'm looking at all I'm doing is looking at
the cubic feet and the price and the price for

(10:17):
cubic feet and trying to figure out that's she's looking
at all the other stuff, and I'm looking at the
little tags on the top. That's all I care about.
So as we're going through all of that and we're
and we're looking at refrigerators. I realized that I'm going
to spend money that I hadn't planned to spend. Uh,

(10:40):
didn't really want to spend. But I also want refrigeration.
I want, yeah, I want. I want my blowny to
stay cold. I'm just that way. I don't know, I
just I don't want the blowy laying out on the
counter all the time. Uh. But the salesperson UH have
happened to be a listener. It's one of those funny

(11:05):
things where you're you're going through all of the conversation,
so it's obvious when he finally asked me the question,
and I saw it coming because you know, we're filling
everything out, and he well, last name Brown, first name Michael,

(11:26):
and then you get the turn of the head. Are
you And I said, yes, I am. And so now
I know that the sales guy probably happens to be
a just assuming more likely than not ninety sure, probably

(11:47):
a Trump supporter. So I kind of lean and said, yeah,
I am. Are you excited about what happened Tuesday? And
he looks around, make sure to coast is clear, this
is clear, and is like yes. It just goes on
and on and on about it. When I while I
was out walking the dogs, this gets this still gets

(12:09):
back to the Democrats because it has to do with
the coalition. When I'm out walking the dogs on uh
Saturday morning, No, no, this is Sunday. It was yesterday morning.
I'm out walking the dogs in Sunday morning, and this
other group that I seek walking toward me, that they
they listen to me, they know who I am, and

(12:30):
so we're at some distance apart. But the dogs that
start running toward each other, everybody in the group throws
their hands up in a touchdown signal. I'm just laughing
my ass off. People are excited. People are and they're
genuinely they're genuinely excited because last week was a catastrophe,

(12:53):
catastrophe for Democrats all across the board, and it really
had to do not so much with money, because Trump
raised a lot less money than the Democrats did. But
what he did was he mobilized this coalition. And when
I think about the people that I ran into over
the weekend that hey, are you excited. Listen, there's still

(13:15):
we're still whispering about it. We listen, everybody, we can
stop whispering about it. We supported him, we won. We're
happy about it. You're part of the majority. You're part
of the majority, so you know, come on, it's okay,
it's all right. Think about that coalition, young, old, every race,
every ethnicity, every sexual preference. You can imagine. I mean,

(13:40):
I saw a stupid meme on Facebook. If you know
a gay person and they're hiding, you should understand why.
And I thought to myself, I know a lot of
gay people, and none of them are hiding. I don't
know a gay person out there that's hiding right now. Now.

(14:00):
I know wayne gay person that is not a supporter,
but he's not hiding. And I know a lot of
gay people who are supporters in there and they're not
hiding either, because they're they're excited, they're glad. They It's
fascinating to me. But let's get back to the to
the consultants, the DC consulting clash. There's a there's a

(14:23):
war going on, speaking of Veterans Day, there's a war
going on inside DC right now. But guess who they're
mad at. They're mad at all the people I just described.
They're mad at the guy at the appliance place. They're
mad at the people that were walking the dogs. They're
mad at the gaze because some of the gaze. Oh

(14:47):
my god. Gay Patriot over on Bruce Carroll is a
friend of mine, lived out in Florida. He is uh.
He's one of the most sarcastic individuals, very five. He's
hilarious and he's always going after other gays on on X.
If you don't follow Gay Patriot, go follow him until him.

(15:08):
I said that, I told you to go follow him.
He's freaking hilarious. Well, all of these consultants are mad
at all of those people. They're mad at the Arabians,
the Arabs, They're mad at the Latinos, the Hispanics, They're
mad at the Native Americans, are mad at the Asians.
They're mad at the Blacks. They're mad at the gays.

(15:29):
They're probably mad at some transgenders. They don't realize it
and they're lashing out of them. Cornell Belcher, he has
a polling firm called Brilliant Corners, was paid more than
one million dollars by the Democratic Packs this cycle. He

(15:51):
responded to the results by endorsing a claim from former
New York City mayoral candidate Mayo Wiley. The election showed
quote deep roots of racism, sexism, and xenophobia. Yeah it's
over on x Belcher posted that Wyley's observation was very

(16:15):
very well said and spot on. They're blaming the voters,
like I guess in a way that kind of makes sense,
because voters ultimately are the ones that cast the ballots,
that elect the winner and the and choose and result
in a loser. But that's not what they're they're not blaming.
They're not blaming them for casting a ballot. They're blaming

(16:39):
them because you you wandered off the reservation. You didn't
stick to the identity politics vertical that we had you in.
You dared to step aside. Tam. Yes, they was buying
the refrigerator as they were talking. Uh we started talking
about Trump. She moves like, well, you know when you start,

(17:03):
when you start getting the people's pocket books, people stand
up and take notice. You know, when you're playing pocket
pool with somebody else's pocket they take no.

Speaker 3 (17:12):
Parnut Michael and Dragon, I uh really getting used to
all this winning right now? You hear Caravero is out,
Thank goodness, and uh yeah, more winning. But can we
talk about is it Coloradin's or Colorado wins. I'm going
with Coloraden's.

Speaker 2 (17:34):
I think I've always said I think I've always said Coloraddin's. Yeah, Coloradins, Coloradins, Coloradoans.
It's too wordy at that point. Yeah, it's just too much,
too long. Ain't nobody got time for that? Yeah, that's right.
So we're talking about these consultants and how the Democrats. Oh,

(17:55):
by the way, yeah, Pat Pat Sullivan, sure cheff, Pat
Sullivan forgot about him. Actually, the Arapahole County Detention Center
was named after him, and so then he gets put
into the detention center that's named after him, and it

(18:15):
was meth and teenage boys. I should I yeah, I
should laugh, because there's nothing more deliciously ironic than meth
and teenage boys and a sheriff being caught red handed,

(18:37):
so to speak, and put in the detention center named
after you. Yeah, when it involves kids, you forfeit your
rife to breathe. That's right, that's exactly right. Dragon. I
wonder if he's still alive. Somebody, somebody go do my
research for me, find out if Pat Sullivan is still alive.

(18:57):
Is he still in prisoned? He did, did he die?
Did he get Gale. What happened? What happened? Inquiring minds
want to know. So let's go back to Cornell Belcher.
That's brilliant Corners, the polling firm. They got paid over
a million dollars by the Democrat packs this cycle. And
he he's responded to the results by endorsing a claim

(19:26):
made by a former candidate for mayor in New York City,
Maya Wiley that the voters who voted for Trump are better,
I think a better way to put it, the voters
that did not vote for Kamala Harris, all of them
together show deep roots of racism, sexism, and xenophobia. And

(19:49):
he says that that is exactly spot on. Now there's
another Democratic operative who leads another group called the Black Pack.
See they love identity politics. You would, you know if
you got the gay pack, you got the Black Pack,
you got the Arab pack, you got the Hispanic pack,

(20:10):
you got you got the transgender pack, you got the uh,
the big old pack, you got them all. Oh good grief. Uh.
The Black Pack is funded primarily by George Soros. They
have a similar tone in a In a column that
appeared on Newsweek over the weekend, this woman by the

(20:35):
name of adrian Shropshire. She's the head of the Black Pack.
That the defeat was a stunning rebuke of the possibility
of a nation guided by our better angels in favor
of a modern day caricature of the Confederacy. Now, think

(21:00):
about the upwards of forty percent of Black men that
voted for Donald Trump. Think about all of those Hispanic
men and women that voted for Donald Trump. Think about
the Arab Americans that voted for Donald Trump. Think about
the Gays that voting for Donald Trump. Think about the
old people, the young people, think about that whole spectrum

(21:21):
of political ideology and demographics that voted for Donald Trump.
And the head of the Black Pack of all people
says that, oh, this just proves that the nation was
guided by a modern day caricature of the Confederacy. It's
almost as if they won a civil war. It's almost

(21:45):
as if they won an insurrection. Yes, do you think
on whatever the date will be this year is a
January fifth or so, whatever the date's going to be,
do you think we'll have an insurrection from them? So,
the same woman, Adriana Shropshire, also went after white liberals,

(22:09):
blaming the arrogance of white progressives who insist they know
better than we do when it comes to protecting democracy
and mobilizing our communities. Now, I found that particular comment
spot on, but not for the reason she thinks. When

(22:31):
she talks about the arrogance of white progressives, She's exactly right.
White progresses are among the most arrogant people in the
entire country because they do, indeed believe that when it
comes to everything, they know better than everybody else what's
good for everybody else. It's just that in this case,

(22:52):
she thinks that the arrogance of white progresses is that
they know better what it means when it comes to
protecting the democracy and when it comes to mobilizing all
those different verticals. She even went on to claim that
they believe that their testing and their models are far
more sophisticated than our generations of lived experience. Man, could

(23:16):
you throw any more of the tropes that the left
uses communities, lived experiences? How much do you think that
the black pack was given five point seven million dollars? Now,
according to the exit polls, white educated voters is the

(23:40):
only group that actually moved in support of Harris during
the election. Now, you may think that that's bad news.
I actually think it's good news. You know why, because again,
if I were involved in some sort of trial, I
would use that argument to prove about the indoctrination that's

(24:01):
going on in public education, both at the secondary and
the higher education level, in public schools and in universities,
whether they are private elitist universities or it is just
you know, your University of Colorado, doesn't make any difference.
It's all about indoctrination. And they're really upset about it

(24:25):
because it's the white educated voters that moved in support
of Harris. Now they'll make the argument that the non
educated white voters just a bunch of white trash. They're
just a bunch of dummies. But those white trash, non
educated dummies, that that's what they call them, that's what

(24:48):
they think. Are the tradesmen out there doing all the work.
They're the right. It's the retired people that weren't indoctrinated
by public education. All of those moved in favor of Trump.
Just the white educated voters moved in support of Harris.

(25:10):
Maria Cardona, you probably well, you probably haven't. You probably
don't watch CNN. She's a CNN contributor, and she's a
consultant at affirm that advised the Hairs campaign. And she
claimed that Latino men did not shift into Trump's camp,
really because the numbers say otherwise. She says, oh, well,

(25:31):
there was some slippage, but don't believe that Latino men
voted for Trump over her. The exit polls are for
the S word, especially with Latinos. You can go find
that over on next Maria Cardona. That's exactly what she said.
In another post, responding to an Edson Research study that

(25:51):
showed that fifty four percent of Latino men in favor
of Trump this year, she says, well, that's just wrong.
They are suspending disbelief. They are refusing to accept the truth.
It's like they got hit by an eighteen wheeler, they

(26:14):
got t boned by an eighteen wheeler, and they're just like, yeah,
we had a minor fender bender today. Yeah, yeah, we
got to call Daran Caplis. Well, we can't call Dan
Capitlis because he's one of them, So maybe we'll call
Frank Azar instead. Maybe that's what they're gonna do. Edison Research.

(26:34):
In fact, probably every credible survey conducted by the Associated Press, CNN, ABC, NBC,
all the other pulling groups. They've all documented a rapid
shift among Latinos, but especially among Latino men. The most

(26:55):
dramatic flip from Democrat to Republican support in the election
was in those Latino communities right on the US Mexico
border in South Texas, Star County, Texas, a county in
the region that is ninety seven percent Latino. It's the

(27:16):
highest rate in the entire country of Latinos. Trump got
fifty seven point seven fifty eight percent. That now that
number a loan is significant, but that is compared to Biden.
That's the swing of almost thirty nine percentage points from
Biden and Hillary Clinton. Now Cardona, that one that refuses

(27:42):
to admit what's going on, is a principal at a
company called Dewey Dewey I got their name Dewey Square Group.
It was retained by the DNC and the Harris campaign
to do the presidentials polls, strategy and communication services, and

(28:03):
according to the fc FEC records, Democratic campaign interests pay
Cardona's firm over a million bucks. Other consultants similarly desponded,
All convinced that Democrats lacked appropriate vehicles for communicating the voters.
We just didn't we didn't get our message right, and
we didn't use the right vehicle to get that message out.

(28:26):
And the voters they took it one step further. And
this is the coud of gross They took it one
step further and said, yeah, okay, we'll take some blame
because we didn't use the right vehicle, meaning probably podcasts.
They're all upset about Joe Rogan, and we just didn't
have the right message and voters just refused to listen
to our messages. Maybe that's because we understand the theory.

(28:50):
It's a bunch of bald faced bull crap, and they'll
take a breaking time.

Speaker 4 (28:57):
I am so tired of the Democrats. They talk about
the messaging. We didn't get our message across, we didn't
say it right. Well yeah, yeah you did. You did
get your message across and people listen. That's why they
didn't vote for you. Thank you very much.

Speaker 2 (29:15):
And guess who's out screaming now they want some bipartisan cooperation,
Chuck Schumer. Chuck Schumer, the same diplod that threatened Justice
Gore such Injustice Kavanaugh that you will reap the whirlwind
is out there callingues. You know, it's time for bipartisanship.
It's time for us to work together. You know, Chuck,

(29:38):
sit down, shut up. So we talked about all these
other demographic groups. What about young people. There's another pattern
that was completely demolished by Donald Trump, and that's young men.
Maybe they've been going to Rocky Mountain menskin, they can
get in their testosterone. Replace. They swall to the Republicans

(30:00):
by almost thirty percent, and of course, the left leaning
cabal they're deriding the shift as merely the rise of
toxic masculinity. Toxic masculinity. So maybe they really did. Maybe
they're getting their masculinity back. Maybe the era of low
T young men is coming to an end. I mean

(30:23):
it's you know, I talk about it in the spots
for Rocky Mountainn's Clink, but it really is a serious thing.
It's a serious issue between between all the kinds of foods,
the sedentary lifestyle, everything. There is such a thing as
low T men. You probably dealt with them in your life.
You see them, you see them, maybe you see them

(30:46):
in your workplace. I'll just put it that way. Toxic masculinity.
The New York Times described it even more sinister. It's
creeping hegemonic masculinity. In other words, all men are becoming
the same, and it's a toxic masculinity. Talk about kind

(31:09):
of racist, isn't it. I mean, I know we're talking
about gender, but it's still racist because you're just clumping everybody.
You're clumping all men in the same hegemonic and it's
had your moonic masculine. It's according to the New York Times,
now that is contempt. I think that a lot of

(31:31):
young men believe that they live in a liberal leaning
society that actively despises them, that treats them with disdain
rather than empathy, because they actually are struggling. Now, we
could talk for days about why young men are struggling.
Look around. Just think about the first time when you

(31:55):
were eighteen years old and you filled out your ballot
for the first time. Looking back over you know, your
childhood and adolescence, I felt like I was, at least,
you know, being the old part that I am. I
felt like I was actually part of a cohesive group

(32:16):
of men. I mean, you know, we had the Vietnam
War going on, we had we had you know, kind
of coming near the end of the sixties, and we
had all of this, you know, we had Jimmy Carter malaise,
we had Ronald Reagan, we had there was there was
a cohesion. I don't know if they really exists anymore.

(32:37):
Think about the me too movement. I mean, the me
too movement is a legitimate movement, But do you think
about where me too is today? Is it equally applied? No?
Are some people exempt from me too? Well? Apparently so so.

(33:02):
Young men looking for dare I say, a father figure, Yeah,
looking for leadership, looking for guidance, looking for someone that
tells them, yeah, there is hope for a solid future.
You just need to kind of, you know, kind of
get bitch slap and wake up out of your stupor

(33:23):
that you know, public education and the media put you
in
