(02:43):
on the airon streaming live on your iHeartRadio app on
Michael del Jurno. And welcome to Thursday, October the twenty fourth.
Donald Trump held a rally in a battleground state in Dieligia.
Vice President Kamala Harris had a town hall on CNN.
I'll that sounds the day. Allow you to make the
judgment as to whether or not she did well. McDonald's
believes slivered onions may be the cause of the E

(03:04):
Coli outbreak. It's only a matter of time before Donald
Trump is indicted. Wow, we do Thursday Night Football tonight

We'll count you down three, two one, Make a comment,
ask a question. You can record your my morning show.
Is your morning show liner there as well? We need
some more of those, Yes, we do. Thank you for that.
And I think you know, I think of the script.
I think Tulsa, Oklahoma, Yes, Oklahoma City and Eau Claire,

(03:46):
Wisconsin are very unrepresented Youngstown. What about Saint Louis too,
seems unrepresented? Don't have that many. I think I've got
one from the Saint Louis area. Yeah, so's your way
of checking in at America's Morning Kitchen Table. You can
always email Michael di at iHeartMedia dot com. All right,
exploration today polls. The big question is are they accurate

(04:09):
translation or more specifically, are they able to measure Donald
Trump accurately? We know in twenty sixteen they greatly underestimated
him because he went unreported. Why, well, that's been an
ongoing poll problem. People don't have home phones anymore, so
finding the people to get their answer. And then when

(04:30):
you call it Donald Trump supporter and you're a newspaper
or university, they're not answering. They don't trust you. And
so how are they overcoming this undersampling? And have they
is question number one? Have they made the proper adjustments
and that's why Donald Trump is doing year today so

(04:53):
much better? Or are they still undersampling? And I got
news for all cut the chase because I don't like
to leave anybody hanging. They don't know. Well, they've done
some things, but in the big umbrella I just laid
out for you, I ain't answering that. Look, I've already

(05:13):
early voted, and I don't hide from my listeners. I
voted for Donald Trump. Every day, somebody's trying to get
to me through a text message to see if I
voted and who I voted for. I don't answer them,
and I'm a host. So have they made the adjustments
or is he still undersampled? And no one knows. We

(05:34):
just know where he is today. And in our polls
of plenty the news couldn't be better for Donald Trump.
If you're not supposed to have favorites Kfyi, Phoenix one
four nine, the Patriots, Saint Louis. I mean, you're not
supposed to have favorites when we have kids, and you're

(05:55):
not supposed to have favorite stories. But as we always say,
behind every headline is the story, behind every story. There's
so much talk about I have a favorite today, a
clear runaway favorite, and it comes to the New York Post.
Why is it my favorite?

Speaker 7 (06:15):
Well?

Speaker 2 (06:15):
Number one? When we hear about what's on the people's mind,
other words, what's driving their vote? What is the top
issue heading into this election, it's always the economy stupid,
It's always the border crisis broken. And then there's always
that third one, and it's either threat to democracy save democracy.

(06:41):
This is the ultimate foundation of this election, is abortion
versus the boogeyman, Donald Trump. That's how it's being presented.
That's not how people are receiving it. The American people
have very astutely seen through all of this nonsense, probably
because they a and I'm always repetition, I guess is

(07:04):
the mother of all learning, reminding you of this, Journalism
is dead and because it's dead, it has no readers,
it has no viewership, and has no influence. We always
use the line out of the movie sixth Sense, I
see dead people in there everywhere. But the best part
of the line that everybody forgets over the years is

(07:24):
the next line. And they don't know they're dead. The
Washington Post, the New York Times, they don't know they're dead. ABC, NBCCBS,
they're talking, but they're dead. Town hall meetings on CNN.
You could add up a town hall meeting on ABC, NBCCBS,
throw in the view throw in some late shows, throwing

(07:46):
Sarah Night Live, the nightly news on every network, and
your three favorite newspapers, and you can't come within one
tenth of the Joe Rogan podcast. That's how dead they
are and don't know it. And they're dead in revenue,
they're dead in audience size. But what they don't really
get is they're dead in influence. And they got there

(08:09):
by being discredited. They earned it. Journalism is dead, and
the cause of death lack of credibility. But just to
make sure that there's just not some old paradigm stuck

(08:30):
in us, I'll bet when I read off the laundry
list of what matters to voters. And I say things
like the economy, or inflation, or cost of living or
the border crisis, you probably get excited. Oh, that means
Donald Trump's getting those votes, because no idiot would view
Kamala Harris as a solution to the economy.

Speaker 8 (08:48):
She broke it.

Speaker 2 (08:51):
No idiot would think she's a solution for the border.
It was fixed that she broke it, and her way
of fixing it. Now you'll hear that in Sounds of
the Day from the town hall meeting on CNN. Even
Anderson Cooper at old or accountable for that. But when
you hear democracy, the saving of democracy, or removing the
threat to democracy, you would presume that means a vote

(09:16):
for Kamala Harris. After all, their whole campaign is Donald
Trump is a tyrant, He's a threat to democracy. He
should be locked up. Only the Democrat Party because we're
not a Republican anymore. We're a democracy and democracy is
now defined as their platform, their party, and their candidate.

(09:38):
So you don't just make a choice. You have utter
fright and despair unless they win and the boogeyman loses,
and if the Boogeyman wins. Democracy dies. They don't lose
a race. Democracy dies. There filed policies don't get what
they deserve. Democracy dies. So this is my favorite story.

(10:03):
Don't assume that. Don't assume when you hear the third
issue is the state of democracy that that means those
people are voting for Kamala Harris. Jonathan Turley did a
op ed piece in The New York Post. The headline is,
despite the media, voters aren't buying that Trump is a

(10:25):
threat to democracy. That's a big statement if you could
prove it isn't it.

Speaker 9 (10:31):
Well?

Speaker 2 (10:31):
Of course, in the matrix is in the eye of
the beholder. Probably for every conservative, every most Republicans, in
all Donald Trump's supporters, Kamala Harris, Joe Biden, Barack Obama,
John they're the threat to America. But if you brought

(10:51):
up the word democracy, well that's got to be owned
by the Democrats because they've made themselves democracy. Here's what
Jonathan writes, Democracy dies in darkness is the Washington post slogan.
But can it handle light? The Post has been dodgedly
portraying the election between former President Donald Trump and Vice

(11:13):
President Kamala Harris is a choice between tyranny, Trump and democracy. Harris.
I don't disagree with that. I go one step further.
At the end of the day, the only real voting
power that she has is abortion on demand. It's really

(11:33):
baby killer versus boogeyman in the name of reproductive rights.
Yet when it commissioned a poll, Now keep in mind,
the New York Post didn't do this poll. The Washington Post,
whose slogan is democracy dies in darkness, has swept this
into darkness. When they commissioned a poll on the threats

(11:56):
to democracy shortly before the election, it didn't work out
the way they wanted. Voters in swing states deemed the
greatest threat to democracy to be Kamala Harris, the very
candidate from the very party running on saving democracy platform. Now,
the polls sampled over five thousand registered voters in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada,

(12:19):
and North Carolina, Pennsylvanian in Wisconsin. Why do I bring
that up, because when we talk about the swing states
that are really going to decide this election, we was thinking, well,
what do they what's on their mind? Are they Democrats?
Are they Republicans? Are they democrats that will actually vote
for Donald Trump? The voting blocks of Hispanics and blacks
and black men in particular, all that we do. Then
you hear things like, oh, what was most important them? Well,

(12:39):
I guess that's saved democracy. That must be all the blues. No.
Five thousand registered voters in the swing states Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada,
North Carolina, Pennsylvanian in Wisconsin, and would it find When
asked whether Trump or Harris would do a better job
of defending against threats to the democracy, Donald Trump won
forty three to forty on an issue. I'll bet when

(13:02):
the morning started you thought, for sure, when you see
that in polls, that's Democrat votes. I think you know,
I always say, and I subtitled my book twenty something
years ago, the only thing left shocking in life is
the truth. That is the truth. You can't shock me
with anything. Six foot eight muscular men boxing against women,

(13:25):
you know that doesn't shock me. People can't figure out
if they're a boy or a girl, or what bathroom
doesn't shock me. Truth is always shocking. The very candidate
from the very party whose platform is saving democracy is
losing the question of saving tomorrow. You can't top this stuff.

(13:49):
You can't beat these prices. Polls of plenty, they reveal plenty.

Speaker 10 (13:58):
This is your morning show with Michael del Trono.

Speaker 2 (14:03):
We got polls of plenty coming up. And on this
day in history, Joe Biden at this time right before
the election was up eight. Hillary Clinton was up five
point nine. Kamala Harris is up zero point two. Nationally,
it passed his prologue. That's a pretty good indicator of
where this thing is headed. The swing states don't look

(14:25):
much better, and the actual voting odds don't look much better,
giving Donald Trump a little over a sixty percent chance
of winning this election. All right, thirty six minutes after
the hour, Thanks for waking up with your morning show
on the air and streaming live on your iHeart app. Yes,
we have a talkback button if you're listening on the
iHeartRadio app, use it just like they did. It was
good to hear that, Oh, Claire, callers, he's been on

(14:49):
the show before. He okay, yeah, he's one of our
smart ones. But yeah, it's good to have him. Now.
We just got to get him to get the format right. Yes,
so you would say hi, I'm Bill from ol. Claire
was conson and My morning show is your morning show
with Michael del Jordan. There you go. It's very embarrassing
for me to have to lay out the format. Well,

(15:10):
it's hard to remember when they're put on the spot,
they hit that button, it counts them down. I'm sure
it is intimidately. Well, just so there's some continuity. Sure, Now,
we won't make an exception with Big John. Okay, I
don't like that he's co billing you do what that's
all about? Feeling so tight with you. Donald Trump held
a rally in the battleground state of Georgia. Vice President

(15:32):
Kamala Harris. She was at a CNN town hall meeting.
I don't tell you how to think, but I give
you a lot to think about. And in sounds of
the day you can hear for yourself and see how
she did. In this particular clip, Cooper Anderson, putting out
his best Brett Bear, presses Harris on supporting a border

(15:54):
bill after calling the border wall stupid and useless. Again,
this gets right to the heart of the matter. You
were the borders, are you are the incumbent administration. If
the border's broke and now you know how to fix it,
why didn't you fix it first. The problem with this

(16:17):
question is there's no way to answer it, and standing
there in her loosely fit suit looking tired, he didn't
answer it very well.

Speaker 11 (16:26):
Bill you that you want to pass if you're elected,
you said that's going to be a priority. It include
six hundred and fifty million dollars in funding for the
border wall, that something Republicans wanted. That was part of
the compromise under Donald Trump. You criticized the wall more
than fifty times. You called it stupid, useless, and a
medieval vanity project.

Speaker 2 (16:44):
Is a border wall stupid?

Speaker 12 (16:46):
Well, let's talk about Donald Trump and that border wall.
So remember Donald Trump said Mexico would pay for it.
Come on, they didn't. How much of that wall did
he build? I think the last number I saw was
about two percent. And then when it came time for
him to do a photo op, you know where he
did it in the part of the wall that President
Obama built.

Speaker 11 (17:07):
But you were agreed to a bill that would ear
morek six hundred and fifty million dollars to continue building
that way.

Speaker 12 (17:11):
I pledge that I am going to bring forward that
bipartisan bill to further strengthen and secure our border. Yes
I am, and I'm going to work across the aisle
to pass a comprehensive bill that deals with a broken
immigration system. I think Jackson's question part of it was

(17:34):
to acknowledge that America has always had migration, but there
needs to be a legal process for it.

Speaker 2 (17:42):
Are you kidding me? This is the very not even
the not even roughly the same policy. This is the
exact policy and the exact wording that they defined a
previous election over. This used to be separating families, inhumane

(18:02):
an American. This used to be nativist, hateful. I was
gonna say the Emperor has no role, but I don't
even go there and think that the Canada doesn't have
a pantsuit. Well, this one didn't go very much better.

Speaker 11 (18:28):
List tried to get passed in twenty twenty one, that
wasn't able to get passed. Twenty twenty two, twenty twenty three,
there were record border crossings. Your administration took a number
hundreds of executive actions. It didn't stem the flow. Numbers
kept going up. Finally, in twenty twenty four, just in June.

Speaker 2 (18:48):
By the way, I have to do this, and this
is gonna there's gonna be somebody, no matter what I say,
is going to hear this as sexist. I used to
hear Simon Cowell all the time on American Idol say
the stage looks too big for you, or he'd say
the opposite. You fill the stage, You filled the moment.

(19:13):
There's just people that have it and people that don't.
Nobody ever talks about it anymore. I'm watching these two visually.
Red and I talked about this off the air, and
I knew it'd be a disaster to bring it up
on the air. She doesn't look presidential, she doesn't look
very bright. She's constantly caught in the web of her

(19:35):
own inconsistencies. Don't you remember how like you know, that's
why they call them slick Willie. Nothing stuck to Bill Clinton,
Everything stuck to Hillary Clinton. It can't all be misogyny.
I mean, it's just some people. I mean this. If

(19:56):
you would have asked me before any of this unfolded,
Kamala Harris unlikable. I was a program director for twenty
eight years. I would never have cast her. She's unlikable.
That's why she failed in the twenty twenty primary. That's
why she was the first to go she's unlikable. Now,

(20:17):
I know they're gonna turn this and if it doesn't
go her way, they're gonna say it's America won't that's
twice now, America won't elect a woman. America's misogynistic. That's
what they're accusing. The black men up right now, and
black men like I loved it what Steven A. Smith
had the best answer. Are you kidding me? Barack Obama?
You're gonna call me asogyst I'm voting this way because

(20:39):
of this and this and this, but they're never gonna
hear it. Bottom line is, I'm watching this, this town
hall meeting. Anderson Cooper looked more presidential. It's an empty head,
it's an empty suit, and the stage is too big.
Somebody's got to say it out loud, let alone. The

(20:59):
answers just unacceptable.

Speaker 11 (21:00):
Listenon three weeks before the last the first presidential debate
with Joe Biden, you institute executive actions that had a
dramatic impact, really shut down people crossing over.

Speaker 2 (21:10):
Why didn't your.

Speaker 11 (21:11):
Administration do that in twenty twenty two to twenty twenty three.

Speaker 12 (21:14):
First of all, you're exactly right, Anderson, And as of today,
we have cut the flow of immigration by over half.
In fact, the numbers I saw most recently illegal immigration.

Speaker 2 (21:25):
With that executive action?

Speaker 11 (21:26):
Why not do it in twenty twenty two to twenty twenty.

Speaker 12 (21:28):
Three because we were working with Congress and hoping.

Speaker 2 (21:30):
Because we were fulfilling our agenda, and now we're trying
to get reelected to do it.

Speaker 12 (21:34):
Some moment that actually we could have a long term
fix to the problem instead of.

Speaker 2 (21:38):
A short term thing.

Speaker 11 (21:38):
You couldn't have done one in the both at the
same time.

Speaker 12 (21:40):
Well, here's the thing. We have to understand that ultimately
this problem is going to be fixed through congressional action.
Congress has the authority and the purse. I'd hate to
use DC terms, but literally they write the checks. Part
of the issue is in order to really fix the
problem at the border. I was just at the border

(22:02):
recently talking with border agents.

Speaker 2 (22:04):
You know what they talk about.

Speaker 12 (22:05):
Yes, they are overwhelming.

Speaker 2 (22:06):
It took me, by the way, it was ninety three
executive order actions that broke it. Ninety three could have
fixed it. None of these answers add up. Look at
the end of the day, Kamala Harris is doing a
town hall meeting on CNN and she can't even handle

(22:30):
Anderson Cooper and CNN or or moreover, maybe the point
is even CNN sees her for what she is. And
to begin the one with a cackling laugh. You know,
I had it write a long time, just unlikable.

Speaker 7 (22:53):
Hy. This is Jimmy Bourne, My Morning shows.

Speaker 2 (22:56):
You a morning show with Michael del Jorno. Get up
with the balls, sleep out of your eye and rip
it open and live it. Live it well. Here are
your top five stories up town, starting with well, I
thought it was too good to be true, you know,
for any any good news to be associated with Boeing

(23:16):
the mccannis union rejecting the labor deal after all. Mark
Mayfield has that story.

Speaker 8 (23:21):
The news comes after a sixty four percent vote against
the deal, which included a thirty five percent wage increase
over the next four years, higher four oh one k contributions,
guaranteed payouts in a bonus program, and a hire signing bonus.
The aerospace giant reached a tentative deal with the striking
workers this past weekend. Over thirty thousand machinists walked off
the job over a month ago. Boeing reported a six

(23:43):
billion dollar loss during the last quarter, with an over
eight billion dollar loss from January through September a Mark Mayfield.

Speaker 2 (23:49):
A batch of nine to one to one calls from
July's assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump has been
released for the first time. Brian Shook report.

Speaker 13 (23:56):
The recordings were disclosed Wednesday as part of Butler County's
settlement with NBC News and two other outlets that sued
for their release.

Speaker 2 (24:09):
The police Better Get Out requi.

Speaker 13 (24:12):
The first fifteen second call was received by dispatchers at
six twelve pm local time. The fifteen recordings released cover
a span of about a half hour. I'm Brian Schuck.

Speaker 2 (24:23):
Vice President Harris will reportedly make her final case to
the voters with a speech on the National Mall next week.
Reports say the speech will take place on Tuesday, exactly
one week before election date. Harris will take the opportunity
to draw a contrast between her and the boogeyman, former
President Donald Trump to persuade last minute voters. The Washington
Post reports harris campaign has requested for the speech to

(24:46):
take place at the Ellipse that would have her delivering
her speech in the same spot where Donald Trump spoke
to his supporters January sixth, before the Capital Riot. They're
always talking about moving forward, moving forward, turning pace, and
they're always looking back, aren't they. Elon Musk says that
crooked voting machines rig elections. He wants to return to

(25:07):
paper ballots. Lisa Taylor has.

Speaker 14 (25:09):
More election officials say that would be a logistical nightmare.

Speaker 10 (25:12):
Hand counting is definitely difficult.

Speaker 2 (25:16):
We would probably have the results in about six weeks.

Speaker 14 (25:19):
Jackie Kellanan heads elections for Bear County, Texas, and says
under state law, the counting must start on election day
and cannot stop that much work, she says, is a
recipe for disaster. It's not chess. Musk, who was skeptical
of technology. Conservative activists in Texas from Dallas to the border,
went to do away with voting machines. When it was
tried in the tiny town of Fredericksburg, it was costly,

(25:39):
time consuming, and riddled with errors.

Speaker 2 (25:42):
I'm Lisa Taylor. Three people suffered minor injuries when a
drone fell from the sky during a Celtics opening night
match and watch party at the Boston City Hall Plaza.
Michael Casner reports.

Speaker 10 (25:53):
The drone fell into the crowd at about seven point
thirty on Tuesday, night, just as the opening night game
of the New York Nicks was starting, a woman was
taken away on a stretcher with unspecified injuries, while two
other people were treated at the scene. The drone apparently
was being used by the TV network TNT, which was
filming the event as part of the NBA Opening night coverage.

Speaker 2 (26:14):
I'm Michael Kassner Saturday's National Prescription Drug take Back Day
pre Tennis with how to participate.

Speaker 7 (26:21):
It's time to open your drawers and medicine cabinets, maybe
into your purse anywhere you might have unused, unwanted, or
expired prescription drugs nationwide. Collections will happen at law enforcement
facilities Saturday from ten am to two pm. The DEA
says you can find one near you on its website.
The TakeBack events happened twice a year, and all medicines

(26:41):
collected will meet a proper disposal. I'm pre Tennis.

Speaker 2 (26:44):
Some of the wealthiest Americans are giving millions and millions
of dollars to campaigns. Who are the big donors and
who do they expect anything in return if their candidate
is elected? Eron Reyale with the big revealed this morning.

Speaker 9 (26:58):
Good morning, Aaron, Good morning, Michael. How are you doing
to that good?

Speaker 2 (27:02):
We had the story? Was it yesterday the day before?
I think was yesterday we did it where Kamala Harris
has the most billionaires. So if you want to follow
the money the billionaires, and it's you know, all the
usual players are all giving to her. So I guess
the first question is you know how much people are giving,
whom they're giving it to, and do they expect something

(27:22):
in return?

Speaker 9 (27:23):
Yeah, the quid pro quote, I imagine that they definitely
want to have their phone call picked up. And what's
interesting is that you say Kamala has the most billionaires,
but at the same time, there are plenty of billionaires
going to Republican There's plenty of billionaires going either way.
And it's funny because like, they don't necessarily want a
cabinet position, but they certainly want their call answered if

(27:43):
they need to get a hold of if they're candidate,
if that candidate wins. So if you look at the
number one donor across the board given one hundred and
seventy two million, this is just like as an individual
Timothy mellon the Railroad Magnet in Air Republican causes. He
started off giving an RFK, then giver to Mega Miriam Adelson,
the widow of Sheldon Adelson, all one hundred and thirty

(28:05):
four million to Republican. Then you have Ken Griffin, a
hedge fund manager, Republican coinbase, the cryptocurrency firmon in fifth place.

Speaker 2 (28:13):
That's the one you're suspicious. That's the one you're suspicious
as the biggest agenda.

Speaker 9 (28:18):
And they and what's interesting is they've given to both
both ninety three million.

Speaker 2 (28:22):
That's called bets, that's called.

Speaker 9 (28:25):
Hedge and your bets, Like that's what they're doing. And
the question because and then obviously have Elon Musk, he
do you go in with Trump? And then you have this
fun for policy reform it's basically like a Soros linked
nonprofit obviously going Democrat. So I don't know, how do
you feel about this because in so many ways it's
just like, so we're buying influence or are you buying

(28:47):
a cabinet position? Most of these folks, I don't think
they want to work that hard. I think they want
people to work for them, you know, would be even
the president.

Speaker 2 (28:53):
It's it's a great it's a great question. First of all,
this This doesn't change when when you have a candidate
like Kamala Harris or a candidate like Donald Trump, you're
not just electing them. They're going to put an entire
administration together. So you're going to have a Secretary of Defense,
You're going to have a Secretary of State, You're going
to have a commerce secretary, You're going to have you know,

(29:14):
so it's an entire administration. And then there's the judge's influence.
So these things matter, and for some of them that
they're jockeying for positions. But I had a different all
while you were talking, a completely different feeling, and it's
the same as I have with media bias. There was
a time media bias bothered me because media bias created
the narratives, dictated the direction, and arrived at the destination.

(29:39):
I don't think that's true anymore. I mean, for all
that you're listing, all I'm thinking of is the Beatles.
I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy
me love. I don't think this money buys elections anymore.
I don't think ABC, NBCCBS, CNN, MSNBC, Fox have the
influence or the viewership or the revenue. They think they have, well,
actually they know they don't have, but they still think
they have the influence. One visit on Joe Rogan pardon

(30:02):
the pun, with Trump, everything that Kamala Harris has done
and where she's done it all along. So I just
don't know that it's as relevant today as it used
to be. If it's about buying access and influence, I
believe that can happen, but I don't think it buys
the outcome of the election anymore.

Speaker 9 (30:20):
I couldn't agree with you more in this simple sense
that I'm like, does no one want to put ads
on like the Joe Rogan podcast, Like they just know
who this enriches. If this enriches the marketing companies, that's
the winner here.

Speaker 2 (30:36):
I think that was you and me earlier this week,
I said, you know, I'm watching these cable networks that
don't have any audience. They don't have any advertisers left
up prescription drugs, so you know, the government props up
Big Pharma, and then Big Farmer turns around and props
up these networks. But nobody's really watching, and none of
these networks are really influencing anybody. It's really copy no
ship to know where it is. We're all in this together.

(30:57):
