Speaker 1 (00:03):
It's that time, time, Time, Time, Luck and Load.

Speaker 2 (00:11):
Michael Verie Show is on the air.

Speaker 3 (00:17):
Kamala Harris was on the All the Smoke podcast. I
must admit I've never heard it. Doesn't mean I don't
know why. I take such effort to explain these things.
But when I say I don't I'm not a fan
of something, or I don't eat something, or I don't
travel somewhere, that is not me casting an aspersion against it.

(00:40):
I'm simply stating that I have no experience with it,
and I somehow think that's important to tell you. So
that's why I go to those grades. I'm not saying
it's bad. It might be a wonderful podcast. It's just
not something I knew anything about, and I don't want
you to think I stumbled on it while I was
listening to it. So it's hosted by former NBA players

(01:01):
Matt Barnes and Steven Jackson, and Kamala Harris was asked
about her economic plan and to her credit, to her credit,
at least this time, she didn't respond with I grew
up a middle class kid, but maybe she should have.

Speaker 2 (01:17):
What is your kind of your economic plan moving forward?

Speaker 3 (01:20):
For people who are living paycheck to paycheck and struggling
for groceries and rent and homeowners.

Speaker 2 (01:27):
So look, I grew up.

Speaker 4 (01:29):
So my sister and I were raised by our mother.
We lived for a long time in an apartment on
top of.

Speaker 2 (01:36):
A childcare center.

Speaker 4 (01:38):
That childcare center was actually owned by a woman who
lived two doors down from us, and missus Shelton, who was,
by all of our accounts and feelings, our second mother.

Speaker 2 (01:49):
She helped raise.

Speaker 4 (01:50):
Us, and so she was a small business owner. So
I'll start with the small business and congratulations on wives.
I from a child knew who are small business owners?

Speaker 5 (02:00):
Are right?

Speaker 2 (02:01):
I mean, you're.

Speaker 4 (02:02):
Business leaders, but you're also civic leaders. You take seriously
your voice and how you can mentor how you can
grow right communities and the sense of communities. I love
our small businesses, and so a lot of my work
in terms of building and growing the economy has focused
on small businesses, and my vision overall is we need

(02:23):
to build an opportunity economy in which we increase opportunity
for all, including small business owners.

Speaker 2 (02:28):
So a lot of my work, even in.

Speaker 4 (02:29):
The Senate, was about increasing access to capital through our
small businesses and in particular through our community banks. So
I've been responsible for billions of dollars more now going
into our community banks because they're in the community, and
then they know who's in the community, and where the town.

Speaker 2 (02:45):
Is, who's doing good in the community.

Speaker 4 (02:46):
What the community wants.

Speaker 3 (02:51):
So what did she say? There is a skill to that,
answering without answering, There is a real skill to that.
And then she was asked about her friends, and she
decided she would break out an accent because we talk
in us black folk now.

Speaker 2 (03:09):
Because it's real natural and everything for her to do that.

Speaker 4 (03:11):
It's my best room from kindergarten is still one of
my best road.

Speaker 2 (03:14):
That's crazy, right.

Speaker 6 (03:19):
We used to go to the clubs and hell, you
ever listened to a Hollywood star and wondered how they
could support someone like Kamala Harris.

Speaker 3 (03:30):
I mean, I know, we're used to it now, we've
become accustomed to it where we're numb to it. But
you really think to yourself, there's no way you don't
see what's happening. So I never watched Seinfeld. Here I
go again telling you what I don't do. But I
think this is important to note. But I do know
who Julia lewis dreyfus is and I think she's cute.

(03:52):
But she comes out and she endorses Kamala Harris. Now
I don't know if that brings another person to support
Kamala Harris or not. You know, you never know with endorsements.
Do endorsements even work? And obviously some are probably more
valuable than others. Does anybody say, oh, I wasn't sure,
but if Julia's would, I don't know.

Speaker 2 (04:09):
I don't know. That's not to knock the woman.

Speaker 3 (04:10):
I don't know enough about her to say, or her
fan base or where they are today. But she announces
that she's endorsed Kamala Harris, and then, and this is helpful,
she shares her reasoning behind the decision, and her reasoning
is souspicious, so vapid that anybody paying attention, I think
would have to say, yeah, hard passed, Julia.

Speaker 2 (04:34):
I'm not a politician. I'm not an expert on.

Speaker 7 (04:38):
Various issues that we're up against today, but I do
know I do feel strongly about who our leaders should
be as an American citizen, and I would really like
it if the discourse could become kinder and more effective,
and I think that that will be the case with

(05:02):
Kamala Harrison, Tim Walls in office, and because I think
they are people who are.

Speaker 2 (05:09):
For the people. Well, they're people who are for the people.

Speaker 4 (05:17):
Okay.

Speaker 3 (05:17):
I guess if I was four or five, maybe that
might that might appeal to me. Nearly a year after,
the Federal Communications Commission rejected almost nine hundred million dollars
in subsidies for Elon Musk's Starlink internet service. And before
you say, Michael, are you for subsidies? Not necessarily, but
as a government, we do do things to prepare for

(05:40):
natural disasters, to help our citizens, and having internet service
is really important.

Speaker 2 (05:46):
It's not just for surfing and having fun. It's for
critical things.

Speaker 3 (05:50):
FEMA, after rejecting the subsidies at Joe Biden and Kamala
Harrison's insistence, has announced that they will be installing star Link,
which Elin owns, in parts of North Carolina because Hurricane
Helene crippled communication in the region. Now, mind you, they've

(06:11):
spent I think forty two billion dollars supposedly building out
internet service and then they had to go back to
Elon Musk and go, can you let us use yours?

Speaker 2 (06:20):
Because it actually works.

Speaker 8 (06:21):
We're also very focused on restoring communications capabilities. FEMA, the FCC,
and private telecommunications providers are working together to help restore
temporary communications as quickly as possible by establishing temporary cell
sites and allowing for roaming where possible, where a resident
can connect to any network available, even if they aren't

(06:43):
subscribed to that network. Today, FEMA will install thirty Starlink
receivers in western North Carolina to provide immediate connectivity for
those in greatest need.

Speaker 3 (06:55):
Fox News is White House correspondent Peter Doucey asked the
DEI secretary why neither the President nor the Vice President
were at the White House while people were drowning in
the floodwaters brought on by Hurricane Helene.

Speaker 2 (07:10):
And well, I'll let you hear her answer.

Speaker 1 (07:13):
People in western North Carolina were drowning in their houses
this weekend.

Speaker 2 (07:17):
Others were losing everything.

Speaker 1 (07:19):
President Biden's A's beach house, and President Harris was hosting
political fundraisers on the West coast. Is there a reason
that they could not be here?

Speaker 9 (07:27):
The President did exactly what a president in this moment
needs to do, which is directing his team to take action.

Speaker 3 (07:37):
This is what we were talking about. Was it yesterday
or the day before. I guess I had to be yesterday.
They all run together. Now, this is what we were talking
about yesterday that Scott Jennings at CNN had to say
about this White House. Kamala Harris is raising money and

(07:58):
Joe Biden is. Somebody called it the longest open casket
ceremony funeral in history. He's laid out like a beached
whale on the sandy shores while people are drowning in
North Carolina.

Speaker 2 (08:14):
It's so awful.

Speaker 10 (08:17):
I think the optics of this over the weekend for
Biden Harris have been pretty poor. In North Carolina is underwater.
These people are devastated and struggling. But you've got Biden
at the beach and then saying, what do.

Speaker 2 (08:30):
You want from me?

Speaker 10 (08:30):
I got on the phone while I was at the beach,
and you've got Harris out raising money on the campaign
and then taking a photo.

Speaker 2 (08:37):
On a plane. I remember George W.

Speaker 10 (08:38):
Bush was pillory for having a photo taken from Air
Force one.

Speaker 2 (08:42):
She's got a photo on a plane and.

Speaker 10 (08:45):
The airphones don't appear to be connected to the phone,
and the paper looks.

Speaker 2 (08:49):
Like it's blank.

Speaker 10 (08:50):
The worst president, the worst Vice.

Speaker 2 (08:53):
President, in the history of our question.

Speaker 8 (08:56):
The fuckle Berry.

Speaker 2 (08:57):
We can't afford four.

Speaker 3 (08:58):
More years of the So Peter Doucy asked the DEI
Press secretary to I guess Joe Biden.

Speaker 2 (09:06):
Is Joe Biden actually the president? I mean, I don't know.

Speaker 3 (09:09):
And people were drowning in floodwaters, and the President of
the United States was laid out on a beach, couldn't be.

Speaker 2 (09:18):
Bothered, could not be bothered.

Speaker 3 (09:21):
And the Vice president, who is she in charge? I mean,
what's going on? They post a picture of her supposedly working.
She had headsets in and a wire coming out of
the headsets, except it didn't plug into the phone, so
that's kind of weird. And then she's supposedly writing on
a page, but the page is blank. It's one thing

(09:43):
to stage a photo op, but at least get a
couple of the details. But then again, if you can't
properly stage a photo op, imagine how well you would
lead the country. And that's kind of where we are today.
That's kind of where we are today. So let's I
want to go with this theme, Somon, Let's play that again.

Speaker 2 (10:02):
That's clip six oh three. Who played in the last second?

Speaker 1 (10:03):
People in Western North Carolina were drowning in their houses
this weekend. Others were losing everything. President Biden's at his
beach house, and LA President Harris was hosting political fundraisers
on the West coast. Is there a reason that they
could not be here?

Speaker 9 (10:18):
The President did exactly what a president in this moment
needs to do, which is directing his team to take action.

Speaker 3 (10:26):
Oh really, from the beach, we should us look nice.

Speaker 2 (10:31):
I believe you. I believe you, Dee Agril.

Speaker 3 (10:34):
I believe you that he's in charge and he directed people.
I completely believe you. I didn't watch the June twenty
seventh debate where he couldn't figure out what his name was.
I believe you that the president is the president, and
he ordered people, and he told him.

Speaker 2 (10:48):
And now he tough boy from Scranton here, I'm scrappy.

Speaker 3 (10:52):
I believe it. I believe he can still kick Corn
Pop's ass. I believe he was a lifeguard. I think
the hair would stand up on his legs and the
black girls would come up and touch it, like he said,
and they couldn't wait to get with him. And Corn
Pop was out there, he took a chain. I believe
all of it. I believe everything he's ever said. I
believe you too, KJP. I believe you now. Now, may

(11:15):
I have just a little more soup. Peter Doocy also
asked about the ICE report. Our own government reports showing
we have thirteen thousand convicted murderers who came into this
country illegally and this government let them in.

Speaker 1 (11:30):
Thirteen thousand people who have been convicted of murder across
the border illegally and are living among us. So how
much danger are you as communities in right now?

Speaker 9 (11:39):
So I'm assuming you're talking about the ICE data. Yes,
So just a couple of things, and I think it's
important to correct the record here. First of all, the
false representation of the data ICE shared, So that was
what we were seeing.

Speaker 2 (11:56):
False representation. I got to call that out.

Speaker 9 (11:59):
We got to call it out. And it's been fact
checked by some of your colleagues here by multiple multiple,
multiple outlets that has been debunked on what has been
falsely misrepresented. We're misrepresented here, So we have to call
that out.

Speaker 2 (12:15):
And so look, this is what the misrepresentation is.

Speaker 9 (12:20):
The numbers that is being put out about how many
people are out. It's been falsely represented here. If you
look at the total returns and removal of the past
year that has been higher than every year under the
previous administration since since twenty ten. If you look at it,
and if we're going to report something a data that's

(12:42):
out there, we got to do it.

Speaker 2 (12:43):
In the way that is not.

Speaker 9 (12:46):
Confusing the American people and certainly not lying. And so
there has been this has been fact checked, been fact checked,
and so this is the way that is being false
falsely represented.

Speaker 2 (12:59):
Here is just not okay. And they'll got to be
really clear about that. It's just not okay.

Speaker 3 (13:06):
Kamala Harris sat at the end of the table at
a FEMA briefing on Hurricane Helene last week. They had
Jill by doctor Jill Biden, the President's wife, presiding over
a cabinet meeting.

Speaker 2 (13:20):
How much worse could it be?

Speaker 3 (13:21):
Was he's just gonna at one point, he's just gonna
walk around naked and maybe fumbling with his grub worm.
I mean, there's nothing else and may poop all over
the floor. There's nothing that's not going to happen in
this nothing that will surprise me about them. Again, so
the press pool was there to take pictures of Kamala
Harris looking very presidential. She was like Jill Biden. She
was in charge at the meeting, but she didn't answer questions.

(13:45):
So you're in charge of the meeting and the press
is there, and what are they supposed to report if
you won't answer their questions? And they asked her questions
and she just sat there and smiled. She's counting on
them to say nice things about her and not having
to answer a question because she knows if she answers
a question, she'll say something stupid.

Speaker 11 (14:07):
Let's go, everybody, thanks.

Speaker 12 (14:23):
So much, just waiting ahead us, right, thank you?

Speaker 3 (14:32):
Yeah, okay, And the press allows it. What they ought
to do is slasher. They ought to punish her for that.
This is We're going to be left with a nation
that doesn't need a press to say anything nice about him,
a totalitarian regime that doesn't even need a phoning press,
and the press will have done it to themselves.

Speaker 2 (14:50):
The Director of Homeland.

Speaker 3 (14:51):
Security, Alejandro Majorcus, was on m s NBC and he
was asked about the communications system failures of our government.

Speaker 13 (15:00):
I want to read to you something that the mayor
of Canton, North Carolina said talking about the frustration that
a lot of people feel about the lack of communication.

Speaker 2 (15:09):
Here's what he said.

Speaker 13 (15:10):
It is unacceptable and disgusting that in our time of need,
cellular service for the entire region is blocked out. There's
no excuse for that. I mean, we knew the storm
was coming. I can't believe this is a normalcy. Is
this a systemic problem? Is this something that is going
to be more and more normal as we see more

(15:31):
and more devastating storms. What do you say to people
who are desperate to find out whether people they love
are still alive.

Speaker 14 (15:40):
I well understand the concerns expressed. These are people in
the midst of a tragic hurricane. That is precisely why
we and others have been deploying communications resources to ensure
that communication is reinstated as quickly as possible. The reality
is that the severity and frequency of extreme weather events

(16:05):
are only increasing.

Speaker 2 (16:07):
So global warming again, global warming.

Speaker 3 (16:12):
They blame everything on global warming because they make money
off global warming. This is how al goarm makes money.
Global warming is everything. You got to give them more money,
You got to pay more in taxes because weather.

Speaker 2 (16:22):
That's what they're doing.

Speaker 3 (16:24):
When they had wildfires in California, you remember they blamed
it on global warming. Turned out it was an arsonist
who started a wildfire. When it's hot, they blame it
on global warming, even though it was hotter one hundred
and ten years ago, one hundred and six years ago,
and there was no global warming. Then when it cools
or gets really cold, they blame it on global warming.

(16:44):
That's why global warming had to become climate change. It's
it's it's like the Aztecs with their you know, the
angry God. Don't do this, or the angry God will
get you. So give us some more money so the
angry God doesn't get us. This is a CBS report
from back in nineteen forty two years ago and a
young grifter al Gore. Grifter Gore predicts the widespread disruption

(17:09):
of agriculture due.

Speaker 2 (17:11):
To global warming.

Speaker 15 (17:12):
Concern about rising temperatures on plattered Earth heated.

Speaker 2 (17:16):
Up a hearing here in Washington today.

Speaker 15 (17:17):
For years, scientists have theorized about the dangers of the
so called greenhouse effect, the warming of the Earth's atmosphere
due to the burning of coal and oil, and in
recent months, as David Cohane reports, research has uncovered facts
to support that theory.

Speaker 16 (17:34):
Many scientists claim that the temperature of the Earth's atmosphere
has been rising over the past one hundred years, that
the great sheets of pack ice in Antarctica are melting
at a much more rapid rate than previously. Finally, that
the sea level has been rising with increasing swiftness over
the past forty years. If these scientists are correct, about

(17:54):
twenty five percent of Florida would be flooded, along with
low lying areas all over the world. Climate changes could
produce widespread disruption of agriculture. The American farm belt might
be too dry and the wheat and corn crops would
have to move to Canada. Scientists blame the odorless, colorless
carbon dioxide gas for these potentially dangerous changes around the planet.

Speaker 2 (18:16):
It is the greenhouse effect.

Speaker 16 (18:18):
The gas allows sunlight to filter down and warm the Earth,
but like the glass of a greenhouse, the carbon dioxide
tends to trap heat so that it cannot rise into space.
Joe Biden became mentally impaired with the Michael Perry.

Speaker 2 (18:32):
Tamala was born that way.

Speaker 3 (18:35):
Doctor Patrick Moore was a co founder of Greenpeace. When
I just read that, now I realize that's probably a PhD.
And I don't call people with a PhD doctor anyway.
He now says the future will show the hysteria over
climate change, which he was once behind, was a complete lie.

Speaker 12 (18:55):
One of my missions is to turn on its head
the idea that carbon dioxide is a pollue and somehow dangerous,
when in fact it is the most important nutrient for
all life on Earth, and without it this would be
a dead planet. So I say, not only is carbon
dioxide good, it is essential, and it's a good thing
that we are putting some more carbon dioxide in the
atmosphere because it was running low before we came along.

Speaker 2 (19:17):
If we had.

Speaker 12 (19:18):
Definitive proof that CO two was causing serious problems and
we could prove it, don't you think they would write
that down on a piece of paper somewhere so people
could read it. They don't have definitive proof period in science.
I'm a student of the philosophy and history of science,
and I know that the scientific method has not been
applied in such a way as to prove that carbon
dioxide is causing the earth to warm.

Speaker 17 (19:39):
You think in a few years, by fifty years from now,
that was a really stupid period in our history when
we tried to change all our energy policies to cut
this guess.

Speaker 12 (19:47):
I am firmly of the belief that the future will
show that this whole hysteria over climate change was a
complete fabrication.

Speaker 3 (19:57):
Boom To, former climate alarmist, was on Fox News with
Laura Ingram when he said there is no consistent correlation
between CO two and the Earth's temperature.

Speaker 18 (20:11):
These policies, they're not just destroying lives, They're rooted in.

Speaker 2 (20:15):
Lies, all of them.

Speaker 18 (20:17):
Our next guest was once a climate alarmist, but now
says the entire movement is quote a scam. Tom Harris
is executive director of the International Climate Science Coalition. He
joins me, now, Tom good, to see you tonight. Now
you actually say the only way to get rid of
this is to go after the science of climate change. Explain, yeah, exactly.

Speaker 2 (20:36):
A lot of.

Speaker 19 (20:37):
People will say, well, you know, Canada, for example, puts
so little greenhouse gas emissions that we shouldn't we shouldn't
actually try to reduce it because China has doubled the
United States. Well, the trouble is people argue that, well, yes,
we have to set an example to the world, and
we have to be good citizens and all that sort
of thing. So they're using these arguments quite often that

(20:57):
China's doubled the emissions of the US, et cetera. But
the real underlying thing is that there is no climate crisis.
You know, I was originally an aerospace engineer, and I
would give speeches and I wrote articles. I wrote one
in the Ottawa Citizen about comparative planetology, how studying the
planets helps us understand the Earth better. And I use

(21:17):
the example of the runaway greenhouse effect on Venus.

Speaker 2 (21:20):
I said, this could happen on the Earth if we don't.

Speaker 19 (21:22):
Reduce carbon dioxide. Well, a local professor of at Carlton University,
professor of geology, he liked my article so much he
used it in his course on climate change.

Speaker 2 (21:34):
But he said to the students, but that part about
Venus is wrong.

Speaker 19 (21:37):
What happened on Venus cannot physically happen on the Earth.
And he explained why. Now, I thought, who is this
climate change denier? Well, he invited me into his lab
and he showed me the geologic history that he and
others are finding, and they found no consistent correlation between
carbon dioxide and Earth's temperature. At times CO two was
thirteen hundred percent of today, and we were stuck in

(22:00):
cold conditions.

Speaker 2 (22:01):
So it was all over the board. So I started wondering, well,
maybe he's right.

Speaker 19 (22:05):
He exposed me to a lot of people who actually
showed me that there are thousands of scientists. And here's
a book actually that illustrates that. It's called Climate Change Reconsidered,
and this is on Climate Change Reconsidered dot org. There
are thousands of references here which talk about the fact
that there is no foundation to the climate scare.

Speaker 2 (22:25):
It's all based on models that don't work.

Speaker 3 (22:30):
At least these guys admit they made mistakes. They admit
their life's work turned out to be a fraud. I
don't think they went into it without approach, but once
they understood it, they admit it.

Speaker 2 (22:41):
Joe Biden can't admit it.

Speaker 3 (22:42):
Kamala Harris can't admit it, Alejandro Myoricus can't admit it.
And they've made plenty Trust me, they don't take the
blame for anything.

Speaker 2 (22:52):
Unlike Ronald Reagan. You blame mistakes of the past, and
you blame the Congress. Does any of the blame belong
to you? Yes, because for many years I was a Democrat.
Ronald Reagan.

Speaker 3 (23:05):
One of the things I think he really did a
great job in the eighties doing was helping people understand
that the government is not your friend.

Speaker 2 (23:16):
The individual is key.

Speaker 3 (23:18):
The individual has to have freedom and opportunity and responsibility
to take care of himself and those around him. The
government is not your friend. The government is not your parent.
When you look at people who fail in this society
and cultures that fail, it's those that believe that government
is their parent, that they are a mere child and

(23:39):
government is there to take care of them.

Speaker 2 (23:42):
That's sad. That is really sad.

Speaker 3 (23:48):
If you think the government is like the candy man,
this tune is for you.

Speaker 2 (23:53):
It's comedian Tim Hawkins.

Speaker 3 (23:55):
What I love is in ever cusses, but he's very funny,
and he also writes and sings funny sons. And I
needed a little downtime this evening. We've been so serious
every day.

Speaker 2 (24:13):
Hey, everybody, gather round.

Speaker 17 (24:15):
I'm here to give you anything you like.

Speaker 20 (24:17):
You want, free college, energy, mortgages, whatever you like.

Speaker 2 (24:22):
You have come to the right place. Why, I'll tell
you why.

Speaker 5 (24:28):
Who can take your money?

Speaker 1 (24:30):
Who can take it?

Speaker 2 (24:31):
Twinkle and the.

Speaker 20 (24:32):
Ride, take it all away and give it to some
other guys? The the government can You can text the sunrise,
who can text the trees.

Speaker 5 (24:53):
Let your own business and collect up all the fiends?
The all the government can and the government can because
of excess will as a make it all taste good
government tastes everything we make to pay for theirs? Who

(25:16):

Speaker 6 (25:19):
The change for ship?

Speaker 2 (25:22):
All await the constant to shoot? And who can give
a mail out?

Speaker 20 (25:31):
Tell us who he has and make the founding fathers
roll over in the grave.

Speaker 5 (25:37):
And the governments the government can.

Speaker 2 (25:44):
And the government can counsel.

Speaker 5 (25:47):
Except well as make it all tastes good.

Speaker 2 (25:52):
The government takes think we.

Speaker 5 (25:57):
All shutters?

Speaker 2 (26:00):
No makes is he that top country? Michael Barry? We
think sweeps tea? Wait, don't you think socialist coolers?

Speaker 3 (26:11):
While in Georgia offering support after Hurricane Helene, President Trump
was asked if he had contacted President Biden regarding federal
relief efforts, and this is what he said.

Speaker 6 (26:22):
Have you reached out the President?

Speaker 9 (26:23):
I find it out federal over leva hurt?

Speaker 2 (26:25):
No, I have a great sass John Dowie. I think
he's sleeping right down. Actually.

Speaker 3 (26:31):
He was also asked why he must insult Kamala Harris's
intelligence And you've probably heard this response, but for those
of you who haven't, and even if you had, it's
good to hear again I insult.

Speaker 2 (26:42):
Grey intelligent, Well I have to do that. Well, I
don't think she's a very right person.

Speaker 14 (26:46):
I do feel that.

Speaker 15 (26:47):
I mean, I think that's I think I am a
very great person, and a lot of people say that,
I don't think she's a very right person.

Speaker 16 (26:54):
And you know what, a country needs a very smart person,
and I don't think she's a very smart person.

Speaker 2 (27:00):
So I'm not looking to I don't consider that it is.

Speaker 5 (27:02):
So that's just a fact.

Speaker 3 (27:05):
It's those types of direct plainspolken answers. You know, you
hear politicians talk and they use a language like theater
actors that is removed from how we talk. And so
Trump has this very plain speaking style that people identify with.

Speaker 2 (27:29):
It's very accessible. And the media they don't.

Speaker 3 (27:34):
Like this because this is supposed to be their domain.
The politicians and the media will talk down to you
in their lingo. They don't want anyone at the highest
levels to be speaking common folk, peasant language. It angers them,

(27:55):
it debases the presidency, it's unpresidential. The same people that
told you Trump's unpresidential are watching this open casket.

Speaker 2 (28:06):
Of Joe Biden's funeral on the beach all week. How
presidential is that? Is that unpresidential?

Speaker 3 (28:12):
The man can't state his name, he falls over, but
nobody notices that's not presidential.

Speaker 2 (28:23):
Nobody notices that. You don't notice that? Do you ever
notice it? Nobody notice that.

Speaker 3 (28:31):
CNN took a low at how both candidates are firing
with workers and this is whine. Imagine this is on CNN.
They're not friendly to Trump. This is why Trump does
so well with workers. This is similar to Reagan. This
is the coalition that the Reagan Democrats. A lot of

(28:54):
working class folks, even union folks, say Kamin is out
of touch with my I used and they love Trump.

Speaker 2 (29:04):
Just listen to this.

Speaker 21 (29:05):
The points that just jump off off the screen should
set off sirens. All right, this is Union House. So
it's a Democratic margin in presidential election. It ain't what
it used to be.

Speaker 20 (29:13):
You know.

Speaker 21 (29:13):
You go back to nineteen ninety two, Bill Clinton won
that union vote by thirty points. Hillary Clinton only won
it by twelve points back in twenty sixteen. That was
the lowest mark for a Democrat since nineteen eighty four.

Speaker 2 (29:24):
Mondale versus Reagan. But look at where Kamala Harris is today.
She is only leading by nine points.

Speaker 21 (29:29):
That would be the worst Democratic performance in a generation,
ten points off the mark of Joe Biden, who, of
course won four years ago, was sort of that union
guy Union Joe right won it by nineteen points. She's
ten points off his mark and the worst in a
generation if this in fact holds, Sarah.

Speaker 17 (29:45):
It is interesting to note that the difference between this
and this and Biden still won, still one, but those
numbers are significantly down. All right, talk to me about
manual labor. Those folks who went to trade schools. Yeah,
those folks who use their hands.

Speaker 21 (29:57):
I think a lot of people oftentimes conflate the union
vote with those who use their hands. Mike Row, of course,
has been arguing more people should go to trade schools,
more people should get a vocational degree.

Speaker 2 (30:05):
Look at this margin.

Speaker 21 (30:07):
This to me, Oh boy, does this tell you about
the state of our politics now versus back in the
early nineteen nineties margin among vocational and trade school grads
and pre election pulow, Bill Clinton was leading that vote
over George H. W. Bush by seven points. Look at
where Donald Trump is today over Kamala Harris a thirty
one point advantage. When I think people think of the
working class, they think of people who use their hands.

(30:29):
And we know that Donald Trump has been going after
that vote, and he is in a very very strong position,
more so perhaps than any other block. The folks who
go to trade school of vocational school. That has moved
from being a core Democratic group to now being a
core group of Donald Trump's massive amount of support among
the working class.

Speaker 2 (30:46):
All right, let's move on to voters of color.

Speaker 17 (30:48):
And there's a very specific group that you looked at,
and what do you think.

Speaker 21 (30:51):
Yeah, you know, we've been noting on this program, right
that Donald Trump seems to have been having some real
impact among voters of color, getting into that traditional Democratic support.

Speaker 2 (31:00):
And I was very interested to see.

Speaker 21 (31:01):
This because we're talking about the working class. Right, So
this is the margin among non college graduates.

Speaker 2 (31:06):
All right, the voters of color.

Speaker 21 (31:07):
You go back four years ago, Look at that Joe
Biden won that group by forty five points. Look at
where Kamala Harris's support is today. She's still leading amongst
that group, but that leads down seventeen points to just
twenty eight points. And I will note that the margin
among voters of color who actually graduate college has only
been changed by five points five points compared to four
years ago. The reason Donald Trump is doing so well

(31:28):
amongst voters of color is because he has really gone
in and grabbed a lot of voters that he didn't
previously have among those who didn't graduate college.

Speaker 2 (31:36):
And this is part of a larger trend that we're seeing.

Speaker 21 (31:38):
Throughout our politics era in which Republicans, specifically Donald Trump
is doing very very well among working class voters where
they were in unions, whether they went to trade school,
or whether they're voters of color. The fact is Donald
Trump seems to have gone into a hotbed of traditional
democratic support and made a lot of movement in ways
I don't think a lot of people would have fought
when he went down that escalator just back in twenty fifteen. E.

Speaker 10 (32:07):
Gleman elus has left between me, thank you, and good night.
