Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hi, I'm Michael, and your morning show is heard on
great radio stations across the country like one oh five,
nine twelve fifty w HNZ and Tampa, Florida News Radio
five seventy WKBN and Youngstown, Ohio and News Radio one
thousand KTOK in Oklahoma City. Love to have you listen
to us live in the morning, and of course we're
so grateful you came for the podcast.

Speaker 2 (00:20):
Enjoy starting your morning off right. A new way of talk,
a new way of understanding because we're in this together.
This is your Morning Show with Michael del John.

Speaker 1 (00:37):
The DNC wraps up its four days in Chicago with
Kamala Harris officially accepting her party's nomination for president. A
federal judge is ruling that the military cannot turn away
HIV positive enlist ees. FDA approves this season's updated Maderna
and Pfizer COVID nineteen vaccines. Oh. I'm gonna run right out.
And you remember the pommel horse guy from the Olympics.

(00:58):
I said, this is the guy that's gonna be the star.
Take his little glasses off. He's gonna be on weedies boxes. No,
he's gonna be on Dancing with the Stars and Collage
Footballer begins this weekend. Welcome to Friday, August at twenty third.
With the Convention behind us, we press on towards a
less aggravating life. If you're just waking up, MAMAA Kamala,

(01:19):
you know it was really a tail of two speeches.
The first sixteen minutes was beautiful Hollywood script writing and
a beautiful actress performing it. The next fifteen minutes was
Boogeyman Pabouch, the devil Trump, most of it distortions and lies.
At no point did they ever in the whole week

(01:42):
ever address if everything is broke, why aren't you fixing it? Now?
You've been in power twelve of the last sixteen years.
Never mind that, or how democracy in the primary process
was assaulted and Joe was just thrown in a trunk
and everything was just handed to Kamala. And then since
it did feel a lot like hope and change all

(02:02):
over again, with no specific plan, because as they're going
to fight for us and our future, it's basically the
same people that have created the reality we're trying to fix.
Having said that, and I mean this, Having said that,
it was a good speech last night, very well written,
for half, very well delivered throughout. As convention goes, they

(02:25):
leave with their ticket, they leave united, and they leave energized.
And now RFK leaves the race. So now what is
the question? With the convention over and RFK out, where
are we headed from here? All American Policy Roundtable CEO.
In your morning show, senior contributor Dave Sonadi is joining us.
You know your texts have just simply not been enough.

(02:47):
You left me mostly to go through this week alone,
and I resent you for that.

Speaker 3 (02:54):
You're never alone, Michael, you know that.

Speaker 1 (02:56):
Oh I'm just so glad this week is over. What
did you make of it all? Well?

Speaker 3 (03:00):
I did call you yesterday because and you were busy,
which I understand because I know how much pain this creates.
Our staff is reeling under the pain of it having
to watch this stuff and listen to these contradictions, and anually,
I'd like to always be honest with you, the Republican
convention is just as difficult. It's very, very difficult because

(03:24):
what we're dealing with now, particularly manifested through Kamala Harrison.
What we saw yesterday was the reality that for the
Democrat Party, the presidency is now simply a symbolic gesture.
This is the symbolic presidency because America is run by
the administrative state, and that those agencies are controlled by

(03:48):
political appointees who all answer not to the President of
the United States, they answer to the progressive movement which
is basically being run from the White House since the
time of Bill Clinton by John Podesta and since year
two thousand and three from the Center for American Progress.
The greatest joke in the world is, while Keenan Thomas
and all of those folks are up there talking about

(04:11):
twenty twenty five, all you've got to do is go
to the Center for American Progress's website and see that
they unabashedly are acknowledging that their whole purpose for existing
is the existence is for changing America and changing America
into what the progressive vision of government as our provider.
And that was we heard last night.

Speaker 1 (04:31):
Oh yeah, we heard what was the Podesta quote on
Inauguration Day. Now it's been so long I forgot it,
but it was something to the effect of the you know,
the administration headed by Joe Biden and Kamala Harrison. It
kind of began with that comment. And then now I
don't think they're.

Speaker 3 (04:48):
Going to be well, it leaned into that language. But
the reality is is that that John Podesta was commenting
two hours before Joe Biden was even going to deliver
his speech. Chudd Podesta was sanctioning it and telling people
how to understand it, right, I mean, and this is
straight from the Center for American Progress. So again, it's

(05:11):
a fascinating reality, and it's frustrating, but it's also fascinating.
Most of the times when a progressive politician is talking
in accusation about their opponent, they're only telling you what
they are doing themselves and rejecting it.

Speaker 1 (05:28):
And last night, and last night was a new look.
I mean, she just even the Washington Post was ripping
her this morning with all of the fact check But
I mean, this notion that Donald Trump is going to
use the military to arrest all Democrats that disagree with him,
I mean, come on, you know, at some point you
got to you got to keep the script at least believable.
But yeah, but as they just got through harassing him
for the last five years and are still trying to

(05:49):
throw him in jail.

Speaker 3 (05:51):
They want government out of your bedrooms, but they're not
afraid to go into Donald Trump's bedroom and bathroom and
medicine cabinet.

Speaker 1 (05:57):
Or ours after him. Right, So, but you bring up
a profound point. At least with Joe Biden, you had
a career politician hidden in a basement and COVID allowed
them to get away with it. Now they're just they'll parade.
They'll parade any cast member. They'll take the janitor backstage
and just put them under the Hollywood lights with the
Hollywood script, tell their amazing life story and tell you

(06:19):
how that person's going to answer all your problems and
fight for you. I'd love to call Kamala Harris today
and give her about three things off my to do
list to fight for. I think the phone would just
hang up, you know. But it's just I don't think
they're even going to bother. But they don't have much
respect for the Supreme Court either or Congress if it
doesn't agree with them, or anybody if it doesn't agree
with them.

Speaker 3 (06:40):
No, they have no respect whatsoever. When we talk about
going forward, we're not going back. What they're saying is
we're never going back to the Declaration of Independent We're
never going back to the constitutional forms of government. In
the first principles upon which our country stands. All that
stuff is pass eight of them because they're progressives. They
wake up every day in a new, evolutionary, improved world

(07:00):
today than it was yesterday. They genuinely don't believe that
the past brings anything worth value upon which you can
operate today. They wake up every day in a new
world based upon their own emotions. Now, listen, if we
were electing Elmo as president, I would be all in
favor of someone who has the highest degree of empathy
being our president. But if you take a look at

(07:21):
great leaders through history, empathy is not usually one of
their noted characteristics.

Speaker 1 (07:27):
Though, he's going to fight for you, David.

Speaker 3 (07:32):
She's a fighter, right, yeah, yeah, yeah, just like she
fought for all those electoral votes that she ran for.
I mean not. The irony of that is beyond imagination.
But we will again. That's that's John Podesta Waves's magic
wand and she's elected without ever having to stand for
election in any state primary and and no one seems

(07:53):
to have a problem with that. Okay, here we are.
What's going to happen next. We're going to see if
the emotional story prevails over the facts of reality. That's
all we're going to get for the next seventy some
days is emotion and rhetoric and boogeyman over the reality
of where people are living every day. And we'll have

(08:14):
to see who buys it.

Speaker 1 (08:15):
All right, I'll give you an example. They pulled off
the bait and switch with their own people. I mean
the very people that they robbed the votes from. We're
all in the United Center and watching on television, and
they pulled it off. They're loving it. They don't even
remember Joe Biden's alive.

Speaker 3 (08:33):
Do they have to get a vaccination from reality to
be able to do well?

Speaker 1 (08:37):
We actually have a new one from Adern Andfizer introduced today.

Speaker 3 (08:42):
Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain.

Speaker 1 (08:45):
I had a name, but I'm looking at my ten
commandments next to me and I can't finish that joke.
All right, David Sinai's joining us with the America Policy Roundtable,
host of the Public Square heard on two hundred stations,
also host of eighteen fifty main Street at eighteen fifty
main street dot com. All right, so, Donald Trump, he
did something really effective yesterday, and that was he talked

(09:05):
about all the things that she didn't address from China
to inflation to fifteen million coming through the poorest border
that she's apparently been fighting for and locking up. You know,
the thing the devil was in the things that she
didn't cover. Again, moving forward, if he only has one debate,

(09:26):
what's the most effective way for him to communicate with
the American people between fantasy and truth? And where should
he begin?

Speaker 3 (09:33):
Well, if he draws the line between fantasy and truth,
that's the start. That's the start, because the truth will
do the rest right right, exactly right, exactly right. And
it's not a difficult situation. We know what she's going
to do. It'll all be at hominem attacks on him.
If he's really smart on this, one of his people
are really smart. They'll also flip COVID. What President Trump

(09:56):
did by saying that if he's elected is commander in chief,
he will rehire every person who was fired from the
United States military for not taking a vaccine and restate
them with back pay. We didn't stay them with back pay.
That is a huge point. If he can flip the
abuses of the COVID error on them and ask where
she was, that is very powerful. That's right. I follow

(10:18):
I mean, I mean Governor Walt sat there and talked
about while people were banning books, they were banning vanishing,
hungry hunger from those schools. I'd like to say, where
were you when the schools were closed?

Speaker 1 (10:30):
Well, if you're listening to the speech, I want to
just in case you weren't listening. Because Tucker, there's a
reason why Tucker makes more money than me. He just
says it more eloquently. He goes, she was a much
more skillful speaker than I had ever seen. But she's
a liar, and she's a liar at the deepest level.
And the things she's saying are simply untrue in fact,
not just that they're the opposite of what is true,

(10:53):
which is a hallmark of evil. That was my problem
throughout the speech. I know a well written script when
I see it in a movie or in a political speech,
and that was a great actress delivering it flawlessly. She'll
have other challenges and interviews and debates, but last night
that was flawless. I thought it was also very revealing
that the first sixteen minutes was impeccable. The next sixteen

(11:15):
minutes revealed their obsession with Donald Trump and their hatred
and intolerance for anyone that supports him, and that I
think was an actual mistake. But throughout it, I mean,
there's just glossy, little one sentences and I'm thinking to myself,
and do you want to explain to them how you
plan to save the planet through the vehicles we drive?
Are you going to mandate electric and are those electric

(11:35):
cars going to be made in China? And oh, by
the way, what's that going to do to our grid?
And what's that going to do to drive up gasoline price?
I mean, you know, all these more of the same.
The government is a solution for everything, and here's my
new laundry list of everything we're going to do. That's
the kind of spending that creates inflation, which creates interest rate.
So she's, basically, to anybody who's knowledgeable, not selling a future.

(11:57):
She's selling reality, the broken reality of today and more
of it. But it's frustrating, and you wonder how it's
playing outside the room. I hope not well.

Speaker 3 (12:07):
Well again outside the room. One of the key things
that we hurts is that if you don't vote for Kamala,
the government will take things away from you. If you
vote for Kamala, the government will give things to you.
The government is your solution. The government is your provider.
That's the key. The second thing is and all the
triggers were tripped to show all this reality is that

(12:31):
the world of the Marxist progressive is a world which
picks winners and losers, and it is based upon class warfare.
That is consistent with Marxism. It is about class warfare.
And everything they do is about class warfare. So you
cannot say you're going to be a president for all people.
When you say your policies are going to even the

(12:52):
scales based upon class and government is the great equalizer,
that never works because government is not just Government just
is and government.

Speaker 1 (13:06):
Doesn't have any money, so they take it from one's
means and give it to another's needs. That's classic Marxism.
And they did that all week long. I mean, they
pitted workers against companies, they pitted middle class against the rich.
And watch how they define poor and watch how they
define rich because they just move the numbers however they
have to get whatever they want. And then in general
there was this Donald Trump only cares about himself and

(13:28):
only Kamala only cares about you. And she's going to
fight for you, and she's going to fight for our families,
and she's going to fight for our future. I will
grant them this one. They left with a ticket and
somehow the people whose votes they robbed they pulled it off.
Two they leave united, and they leave energized. That's the
role of a convention. What we don't know is how

(13:51):
all this played outside of that convention hall. How she
performs in future debates or interviews, do word salads reappear?
Time will tell. I will give them that they pulled
off their convention. It was a strong convention for their partisans,
and that means their deepest foundational base. And she can

(14:14):
deliver a speech, she can get the job done with
a teleic prompter. And so far, there were a couple
of moments last night when she started talking about being
commander and she meant Donald Trump. It was coming out,
but she held it back. And she can be very believable,
very charming. She's as good of a liar as the Obamas.
That needs to be put on the shelf and understood

(14:34):
as we move forward. And we got a very close
race like we've had all along.

Speaker 3 (14:38):
Yes, one other point, if I can quickly. There was
one statement that she made at the close, and it
harkened back to something that Paul Johnson, British historian said
in his book History of the American People. What she
said was that he said that the creation of America
is the greatest adventure of all human history. That's how
we started his work, the creation of a as. She

(15:01):
sort of borrowed on that. She also, by the way,
has stolen your theme that we're all in this together.
I think we should get a hold of some property,
intellectual property people, because that seems to be her logable.
It was yours first, at least by I don't.

Speaker 1 (15:13):
Know, how are you know me? She's going to fight
for me. I can't sue her. She'll take care of it.
She would never fight against me, the little guy, would you. Yeah?
By the way, she had both, she had standing up
for what's right and we're all in this together. Trust me.
I was cringing.

Speaker 3 (15:27):
Yes. But now here's the thing where she did kind
of borrowed from Paul Johnson but edited it. She said
that America is the most extraordinary story ever told. Well,
she missed it by one. America is only an extraordinary
story because the people who founded America believed in the
greatest story ever told, and that's the story of redemption.
She's missing a whole chapter in the book on that.

Speaker 1 (15:49):
I am going to dismount. It's been a great week.
Couldn't have done it without you. Will talk again next week.
Have a great weekend.

Speaker 3 (15:55):
Thanks, Michael.

Speaker 2 (15:57):
This is your Morning show with Michael Del Trono.

Speaker 1 (16:01):
We all wait to see if the Democrats are going
to get a big bounce from this convention in Chicago.
We know it played well inside the United Center. How
did to play outside the United Center? More on that
with John Decker in moments from now and RFK Junior
expected to drop out of the race today, may even
join Donald Trump in Arizona on a stage later today.
In other words, conventions behind us. Rfk's about to be

(16:24):
behind us. Now what Roory O'Neil, is our your morning
show national correspondent joining us? Now? Yeah, we know rfk's leaving.
The question is really joined Donald Trump later on stage today?

Speaker 4 (16:37):
That seems to be the plan. We've heard that Donald
Trump will be introducing a special guest today. We believe
that OURFK is in Arizona, that they filed the paperwork
to take their name off the ballot in that state yesterday.

Speaker 5 (16:50):
So it would appear that an endorsement is in the works.

Speaker 4 (16:53):
And smart strategy by the Trump team to try to
change the topic and not talk about Beyonce not showing
up last night.

Speaker 1 (17:02):
No, we got Pink instead. That was Pink's daughter, by
the way, singing with her.

Speaker 5 (17:06):
Yeah, no, very good.

Speaker 1 (17:07):
I mean talk about perfect tone. I have a daughter
with perfect tone. And see Jeffrey and I, well you
know this too, well, this is I think this is
when you first started hating me. Wasn't it over?

Speaker 5 (17:18):
The singing goes way back? Oh yeah, sure.

Speaker 1 (17:21):
But anyway, make a long story short, Pink brought her
daughter on stage and they kind of did what about us,
kind of like a duet. I thought that was you know,
it was a movement I could use.

Speaker 3 (17:32):
But that was nice.

Speaker 1 (17:32):
But the rumor was Beyonce was going to come and
bring the house down with Freedom, right right.

Speaker 4 (17:37):
TMZ had said that they had two sources that confirmed it,
and on and on and on, but obviously it never happened.
I think that was one of the reasons they said
the floor of the arena was so jammed last night.

Speaker 5 (17:48):
Was people were expecting a Beyonce show.

Speaker 1 (17:51):
Well they got a Kamala show. I've kind of framed
it this way. I give credit where credit is due.
It was, for sixteen minutes, a flaw lesslie written biographical speech.
I mean it really was, and she pulled it off.
I won. By the way, what color did you you guessed?
White right pants suit?

Speaker 5 (18:10):
I guess the color?

Speaker 6 (18:11):
No?

Speaker 1 (18:11):
Oh you didn't. Who did that with us? Maybe it
was Decker? But she looked beautiful she pulled. I mean
she she read that teleprompter and delivered that speech I
think is good or better than the Obamas. And then
at sixteen minutes, then it went you know, full south.
It's not even standing up to the fact checking of
the Washington Post and creating the devil and Donald Trump.

(18:33):
But I will grant it. They definitely got their ticket.
They in an extraordinary way and managed to pull it
off in that room. And they've united their party and
energized their party. And where do we go from here?
And the question is what can Donald Trump do to
get some of the momentum back? And the reality is
this RFK may be the first and I guess position

(18:54):
her speech right, I expect both of those today.

Speaker 4 (18:57):
We'll have to measure what kind of a bounds this
convention and gets, if any. You know, the RNC was
steiny to when Joe Biden dropped out of the race
a couple of days later.

Speaker 5 (19:07):
So they didn't really get much of a post convention bounce.

Speaker 4 (19:10):
And I think that this when the balloons came down,
that formally ended the honeymoon phase of this campaign, and
that now the pressure is on to start taking questions,
answering questions, and filling out that position paper.

Speaker 5 (19:23):
I guess that is still blank on our website.

Speaker 1 (19:25):
So what we're really asking is because there's nothing about
this convention that's going to convert any Donald Trump supporters
or even any anti Democrat supporters, So an independent you know,
we'll see what the RFK bump creates. But what we're
really talking about our Democrats. I would think you're famous
for always saying it's baked in the cake. Just getting

(19:46):
rid of Joe. It was baked in the cake, and
the numbers surged, so I don't know how much more
growth there is for people. Well, I'm glad it's not
Joe because he's obviously senile, but there's something about Kamala
I would have rather blank. I mean, I don't know
that it is baked in the cake. I don't know
that they don't already have what they're going to get.

Speaker 4 (20:03):
Well, since I'm hungry and keeping the food met well.
But the bigger issue is is this a sugar high?
And does this last? And do these people actually get
off the couch? I mean, who hasn't made up their
mind yet in this race? Is the big question. And
if you're undecided, I mean, are you more likely to say, well,
I have to make a decision and I have to
get up and vote, Or if you're undecided because you're

(20:24):
so uninformed, do you just you know, change the channel
and find something else on TV.

Speaker 1 (20:29):
I have to do this for one listener because you know,
he makes the obvious reminder. We are a constitutional representative republic,
not a democracy. Our finding fathers were an interest in
democracy because at least the dictatorship or mob rule. But
you know, seeing as they are the great defenders of democracy,
it's pretty remarkable what they pulled off. They hid a

(20:51):
president's condition and have no consequence for it. They basically
took all of his votes from him, gave them to
her and an Arab ra speech. This is the nine
second explanation. They get the path.

Speaker 7 (21:04):
That led me here in recent weeks was no doubt unexpected,
but I'm no stranger to unlikely journeys.

Speaker 1 (21:13):
And that's it. That's about all that was referenced. But
it's a pretty extraordinary, you know year. And then they
have a short runway now, which could work in their favor.
The question moving forward is can she pull off interviews?
Can she pull off a debate the way she pulled
off the teleprompter last night? And only time will tell,
but she I didn't. You know, there was a lot

(21:34):
of lies and distortions in that speech, but that was
a very well delivered speech.

Speaker 4 (21:39):
It was, you know, and on the from a performance standpoint,
you know, ten out of ten for the week. Well
let's give them a nine because there was no Beyonce
as we were.

Speaker 1 (21:47):
You're still bitter, still better, but yeah, no, I mean
from it.

Speaker 5 (21:51):
But hey, by the way, I said the exact same.

Speaker 4 (21:53):
Thing after the r ND see but obviously, though very
different circumstances, they had just come out of the assassination attempt.
You know, it looked like they were cruising to a
victory over Joe Biden and that convention was completely united.
So it was a remarkable event in Milwaukee, but obviously
with everything being turned upside down, pretty remarkable for the
Democrats to get their act together the way they did

(22:15):
this week.

Speaker 1 (22:16):
Yeah, and for the Republicans, they left united and energized
behind their candidate. For the Democrats, they pulled it off.
They leave united and behind theirs. It's nearly a toss up.
It's going to come down about five swing states. There's
really nothing left to happen now, Rory. But get it on.
That's all. Let's get it on. Let's go and get
some sleep, all right, Rory's gonna be back. Rory's gonna

(22:38):
be back. Next hour. We always give the final story
to Rory, a little bit on the convention and the
honeymoon being over and where do they go from here.
We'll do that next hour when we come back. Your
top five stories of the day.

Speaker 3 (22:50):
Right, this is Jimmy Bourne, My Morning Show is your
Morning Show with Michael Joe Jorno Waking up.

Speaker 1 (23:00):
Well, what can I say? It's official. The Mama La
Kamala Harris Traveling Salvation Show is officially on her road
to the White House. Here's Brian Shook.

Speaker 8 (23:11):
Vice President, Kamala Harris has officially accepted her party's nomination
for president. Harris took to the stage Thursday night at
the Democratic National Convention in Chicago, formally accepting the nomination.

Speaker 7 (23:25):
On behalf of everyone whose story could only be written
in the greatest nation on Earth. I accept your nomination.

Speaker 5 (23:39):
In the United States.

Speaker 8 (23:42):
Leaning heavily into her background as a district attorney and
attorney general, Harris said she was used to being underestimated,
but that the future is always worth fighting for. In Washington,
I'm Brian Shook.

Speaker 1 (23:54):
And the rumors are false. Beyonce did not make a
surprise appearance, just Pink and her daughter. We had other speakers.
Senator Mark Kelly along with his wife, Gabby Gifford. Elizabeth
Warren spoke, The Deep Sister Maya spoke. Gretchen Whitmer. I
think was probably the I had to be critical and
say the biggest dud of the night. Yeah, somebody have

(24:15):
to search that. Was she a pageant girl? There was
just or like there was a lot of like really awkward,
like when you're going to like when you're in watching
a high school play. She do the pose and then
delivered the line and they just never really.

Speaker 5 (24:29):
She gets us, she sees us, she sees it.

Speaker 1 (24:32):
She is us. Oh my god, I'm now I gotta
worry about Kamala Harris at her next event, saying, well,
she already stole my line. We're all in this together.
We should file charges. I guess next me. And this
is the all president. I'm Michael del Jarno. I mean, yeah,

(24:53):
that all week long. She sees us, she hears us.
Only Gretchen Whitmer went to she it is us. Oh
my god, she's omnipresent. Just she was the stiff of
the night. Hey, the FDA approved the season's updated Moderna
Pfizer COVID nineteen vaccine. I know you're going to run
right out and get it right. Here's Lisa Taylor with more.

Speaker 9 (25:15):
They're designed to target the KP point two strain and
are approved for those twelve years and older. Moderna CEO
Stephanie Bansell said that COVID remains a significant health risk
and the shot remains one of the best ways for
people to be protected and prevent severe illness. Medical contributor
Ali Azar on the benefit of getting the vaccine. The
thing that we've learned over the years that even though
that immunity and protection over that symptomatic infection.

Speaker 2 (25:37):
Goes down after a couple of months, protection against severe disease.

Speaker 1 (25:41):
Is more durable.

Speaker 9 (25:42):
MODERNA said it expects the updated vaccine to be available soon.
I'm Lisa Taylor.

Speaker 1 (25:47):
A federal judge is ruling that the military cannot turn
away HIV positive enlist ees. Brian shook me all night
long is back with more Virginia.

Speaker 8 (25:56):
Judge Leoni Brinkima said that none of the Pentagon's argument
in their attempt to bar recruitment of HIV positive individuals
were supported by the evidence. She said the Pentagon's banning
of asymptomatic HIV positive enlistes is irrational, arbitrary, and capricious,
and they contribute to the ongoing stigma surrounding HIV positive

(26:18):
individuals while actively hampering the military's own recruitment goals. I'm
Brian Shook Well.

Speaker 1 (26:26):
For two hundred bucks a night, you could stay it
what could be called an airbn Beatles the original Beatles
drummer Bete Best he needs a Buck and his brothers
have converted the rooms above the Coffee Club in Liverpool
and they made it into an Airbnb. The original Beatles,
comprised of best George Harrison, John Lennon and Stuart Sutcliffe

(26:49):
reportedly played forty times in that basement. No poll, no ringo.
There are five units in all that are available, and
you can stay where the General Beatles used to play.
I want to go. That'd be cool in a basement
in Liverpool, down by the river. In the NFL last night,

(27:10):
Colts twenty seven fourteen over the Bengals. The Bears are
four known preseason. I told you look out for the
Bears thirty four to twenty one over the champion Chiefs
and baseball, the Cardinals won three nothing over the brew Crew.
Nationals won eight to three over the Rockies. The Guardians
and the Rays both lost, and the Rangers, Mariners, and
d Backs were off. Birthdays today, I dream of Jeanie's

(27:33):
Barbara Eden ninety three years old today, and I'm here
to tell you still looks beautiful, gorgeous ninety three. I
could tell a fun story to Decker about how I
met Rick Springfield. The singer and actor Rick Springfield seventy
five years old today, and former Redskin quarterback Sonny Jergensen

(27:53):
is still alive and ninety years old if it's your birthday,
Happy birthday. We're so glad you were born, and thanks
for waking up with your morning show. All right, Democrats,
they're done. They got the ticket, they got their energy,
they got their unity. Let the race begin. Well, they
get a bounce from the convention. How did it play
outside the walls? Your White House correspondent and your morning

(28:14):
show correspondent John Deckris here to prognosticate or wonder with us.

Speaker 6 (28:20):
Hey, good morning morning.

Speaker 5 (28:22):
The way to see it?

Speaker 6 (28:23):
Yeah, good morning to you, Michael. As far as the bounce,
I'd be surprised if there's a bounce. And the reason
I say that is simply because of the numbers. There
are so few undecided voters out there that, if anything,
I see Kamala Harris solidifying her very narrow lead nationally
that she has over Donald Trump. But I don't see

(28:45):
a major extension of that lead against Donald Trump.

Speaker 1 (28:49):
She already received it. They've already got.

Speaker 6 (28:52):
They received it, she already got.

Speaker 1 (28:54):
You know, it's funny everybody talks about the lows or
the highs for Donald Trump, but you know that's I
don't know why America didn't realize that Joe Biden was
having some issues until that debate, but she's basically got
things back to where Joe was before everybody realized, holy crap,
this guy is out of it. And so I'm with you.

(29:14):
I think it's baked into the cake. I think the
bump she has gotten there's not that many undecided. It's
going to be razor thin. It's going to be five
really battleground states, two in particular, and maybe a couple
of districts in those two that are going to decide
this thing. And all I will say is, that was
a very well written Hollywood speech last night, and that
was an Academy Award winning performance as an actor. That

(29:37):
was Anybody tells you she didn't deliver that thing. It
may not have been filled with what I would call
or The Washington Post would call truths, but that was very,
very well delivered. If she can do interviews as good
as she did that speech last night, and debate as
good as she did that speech last night, it's going
to be really close. If not, she's going to win.
I just don't know if she can.

Speaker 6 (29:56):
Yeah, I don't know either either, you know, And there's
such a build up to do an interview. I never
saw anything like that. Just do the interview, Just do
a president ofference. Get it out of the way. I
don't understand the huge build up over something that we
just expect of our candidates, especially a presidential candidate. But
you're right, there is one thing that we know of
on the calendar. It's circled in my calendar. It's September

(30:18):
the tenth. That's the debate between Donald Trump and Kamala
Harris and Philadelphia. I'll be there, and to me, that
is one of those events that could potentially really change
the direction the dynamic of the campaign. We saw that
happen on June and twenty seven. Talk about a debate
that changed the dynamic of a race. I've never seen
anything like that. And of course that of course led

(30:39):
a month later to Joe Biden dropping out of the race,
Kamala Harris becoming the Democratic presidential nominee, and the momentum
that you have described has kept going all the way
up until what we saw this week in Chicago.

Speaker 1 (30:52):
Yeah, they like to talk about democracy a lot, and
what you saw was a incumbent president run in a primary, givespeed, debate,
make campaign appearances, get all the delegates necessary, and then
just get forced out. And the only explanation anybody got
for this amazing display of not just taking out Joe Biden,

(31:15):
taking out the primary process was nine seconds. This is
for everything that happened. This is all that was really
addressed yesterday. The path that.

Speaker 7 (31:23):
Led me here in recent weeks was no doubt unexpected.
But I'm no stranger to unlikely journey.

Speaker 1 (31:31):
Let's it. I'm no stranger unlikely journeys, and that's it.
I don't know that America has that simple must be
easy to just deliver a line and move on.

Speaker 6 (31:41):
Well, you know, I'll tell you, remind you of something
if I'm not mistaken, Michael, and maybe you've mentioned it.
I don't even think Joe Biden was mentioned once in
Michelle Obama See I'm sorry, Joe Biden mentioned by Michelle
Obama one time in her address that she gave just
the other night in Chicago. So obviously, many Democrats want
to paper over that look forward, and many Americans are

(32:02):
indeed looking forward. They're moving past what happened in June,
what happened in July, and now focused on what will
happen in November.

Speaker 1 (32:10):
Well, this is a serious question. With exactly one minute
to answer it. We used to always say that you
can't win an election with a debate, but you can
lose it. Joe Biden proved that, Kamala Harris proved that
in twenty twenty. In fact, it was Telsea Gabbert that
sent her as the number one candidate to out of
the race. Is it possible there's only one debate scheduled

(32:32):
because they want to wait and see how she does.

Speaker 6 (32:36):
I don't know the reason. Well, keep in mind, there
were two debates scheduled, and that was when Joe Biden
was the presidential nominee for Democrats, and that was scheduled
way back on May the fifteenth. Okay, think about all
the things that have happened over.

Speaker 3 (32:49):
The course of the last few months.

Speaker 6 (32:51):
There will not be any other presidential debate period end
of sentence, beyond the one that will take place on
September the tenth. And we also know about one vice
president findential debate that will happen on October the first.
That is it. That is it for this election cycle.
There will be no other events as it relates to debates,
put on the schedule between now and November.

Speaker 1 (33:09):
And if she doesn't perform, well, there will be no Christmas.

Speaker 2 (33:14):
We're all in this together. This is your Morning Show
