Speaker 1 (00:01):
Bring it on.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
That is what Joe Biden is saying to Donald Trump.
Acting like the man with aviators that loves eid ice
cream and sniff children's heads is back at it, folks.
He's back in the saddle.
Speaker 1 (00:15):
Bring it on.
Speaker 2 (00:16):
With a presidential debate plan that will now include two debates.
Speaker 1 (00:21):
But there's a caveat. They don't want.
Speaker 2 (00:26):
There to be audience members, you know that could maybe
clap for Donald Trump when he says things they like.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
Yeah, they don't want any of that.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
It's also on two hardcore communists networks. Now, Joe Biden's
campaign demanded a ban on audiences during the proposed presidential
debates with former President Donald Trump, and the demand appears
to be designed to reduce the risk of any Biden
protesters attending the event or clamping for Donald Trump.
Speaker 1 (00:54):
Now, why is that an issue?
Speaker 2 (00:55):
You may remember Donald Trump did a town hall on
CNN and CNN the communist news network, is going to
be hosting one of these two debates, and they saw
what happened. The audience started to actually clap for Donald
Trump and some of the things that he was saying,
and Caitlin Collins didn't know how to handle it.
Speaker 1 (01:16):
At CNN.
Speaker 2 (01:17):
In fact, CNN didn't know how to handle it is
a network that, heaven forbid, there might be people in
the audience that actually liked what the former president was saying.
So this seems to be done by design to shut
down in silence the people that are voting in this
country so that they'll have less of an impact on
(01:37):
what it looks like to the rest of the country. Right,
because if you see people that are clapping, and you
see people that are excited for Donald Trump, then you
may say, you know what, Yeah, I'm going to be
a little bit more proud of my support of Donald Trump,
or maybe I'm going to jump on the bandwagon and
maybe I can get a little excitement.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
Right.
Speaker 2 (01:55):
It's the same reason why we in sports it's sports
suck without fans. They just do go to a game
where there's no one there and it's not fun. It
is fun and it's exciting when you're around people that
are fans and there's cheering, like that's just changes.
Speaker 1 (02:09):
The entire dynamic.
Speaker 2 (02:10):
Now, I've done a lot of debate prep in my
career for people that are running for governor, for Senate,
for Congress, and for the presidency and I can tell
you presidential debates completely change when there is a studio audience.
And I've been in part of that and it is
a blast to watch when a candidate breaks out because
(02:31):
they get some momentum behind them. And that is exactly
why they're demanding that these debates be done in a
way where you cannot have that X factor of what
would happen if Joe Biden says something. It's just a
flat out line and the audience is like boo or no, right,
he's not willing.
Speaker 1 (02:49):
They don't want to take that risk now.
Speaker 2 (02:51):
In a letter to the Commission on Presidential Debates, the
Biden campaign said it was providing notice that it would
not participate in Commission debates. The campaign said Biden would
only participate in quote network debates, meaning they're run by
networks that are friendly to him. Now, the Trump campaign
has said, or at least Donald Trump has said today, Yeah,
(03:14):
we'll do the two debates. But that's all we had
to say about it. And this was in response to
the quote bring it on now. The Commission's model of
building huge spectacles with large audience is a great expense,
simply isn't necessary or conducive to good debates is what
the Biden campaign wrote in their letter. The debates should
(03:35):
be conducted for the benefit of the American voters watching
on television at home, and not as entertainment for an
in person audience. Right with this, you know this raucous
or disruptive partisans and donors who consume valuable debate time
with noisy spectacles of approval or jeering.
Speaker 1 (03:55):
Now, let me just read between the lines here.
Speaker 2 (03:58):
There are two things that the Biden campaign is afraid
of with these debates. One that right there would be momentum,
just like we saw in that town hall with Donald
Trump and Caitlyn Collins on CNN and it backfired on CNN.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
That's what their fear is, number one.
Speaker 2 (04:11):
But I also think their other fear is that there
would be the radicals of the left that would infiltrate
these these Marxists and socialists and communists they've been appeasing
on college campuses for example, that they would then have
to deal with if there was these protests. I think
one of the protests that you would obviously see that
is at top of mind of everybody right now listening
(04:33):
would be the anti Israel protests that probably wouldn't play
well on TV, and then it would put Joe Biden
in a bad situation, and it might give an opportunity
for Donald Trump to say, Look, this is the Democratic Party.
If you vote for Joe Biden, these are the radicals
that you're voting with. So there's two parts of this
here where they're saying we don't need this, right, like
this is something we just don't need. All right, let
(04:55):
me take a moment and talk to you real quick
about your retirement and inflation and the eroding of the
power of the dollar. Right now, inflation is well above
what the Fed's target rate is.
Speaker 1 (05:06):
You know what's happened.
Speaker 2 (05:07):
Consumer prices are much higher than they were last year,
or the year before and the year before that. That's
why all of us need a financial plan that ensures
that money that we save today will be enough for
us tomorrow. And that's why I've diversified my investments to
include gold and silver. Now, there are a lot of
gold and silver companies. You hear them every day if
(05:28):
you listen to conservative podcasts or talk radio, if you
watch TV conservative networks, you'll see tons of companies. Well,
let me tell you about Freedom Gold USA. Reason why
I love them. They preach protection and diversifying your assets.
They will not take you to put all your money
in gold and silver. Now here's the other thing that
is really important to you. You work hard for your money,
(05:49):
just like I do. And on average they charge twenty
five to thirty percent less than most major gold and
silver firms. So the ones that you hear from there
gonna charge you on average twenty five to thirty percent
more than what you're gonna pay when you call my
friends at freedom Goold USA. Now you can take control
(06:10):
your financial future right now, and you can also get
free silver in your account. They will walk you through
the process, talk to you about about diversifying your investment
your IRA you'r four oh one k or having just
physical gold in your safe Take control now. Visit FREEDOMGOLDUSA

(06:33):

as was the case with the original televised debates, the
Biden campaign goes on to write in nineteen sixty a
(06:54):
television studio with just the cannons and moderator is a better,
more cost effective way to proceed now. Now, with all
due respect to Joe Biden and the Biden campaign, these
guys don't give a crap about costs. If they did,
they wouldn't be spending more than a trillion dollars every
one hundred days, which is what our federal budget is
right now. So this idea that they are about cost
(07:16):
saving is just absurd. What Joe Biden's campaign is saying
is here's our excuse, and here's why we don't want
our guy in front of a studio audience, because we
believe it is just too big of a liability for
him now. Biden also released a video Wednesday morning proposing
two debates in June and September, saying I've received and
(07:37):
accept an invitation from CNN for a debate on June
the twenty seventh. Biden posts on X over to you Donald,
as you said, anywhere, anytime, any place, right. This is
the guy getting his mojo back here, right. It's all
about the mojo and getting it back. Former White House
Chief of Staff Ron klam A longtime trusted ally Biden
(07:58):
will help Biden with debate prep being told that being
reported by The New York Times.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
Now.
Speaker 2 (08:04):
Claim previously told MSNBC's Jensaki, who was Biden's former White
House Press secretary, that rules are going to have to
be enforced of any debate between Biden and Trump.
Speaker 1 (08:18):
So again they're trying to cook the books here.
Speaker 2 (08:20):
Donald Trump, responding on True's social says, please let this
truth serve to represent that I hereby accept debating crooked
Joe Biden on Fox News. The debate will be on Wednesday,
Act over the second. The host will be Brett Baer
and Martha McCallum. Thank you, Donald Trump that coming out
on his response to all of this, I think we
(08:42):
have to see if something different than we saw in
twenty sixteen and twenty twenty, the Biden camp said, where
the Debate Commission lost control of the debates, Trump didn't
follow the rules at all. He talked over his opponents.
There wasn't a fair division of time. It was more
of a spectacle than a debate, Claim claimed, and he
(09:02):
said that's always going to be true with Donald Trump
on the stage. But at least we can have some
rules on the front end. And why are they saying this?
I think it's pretty clear. They're basically saying that if
the first debate doesn't go well for Joe Biden and
he gets just hammered, we'll have an excuse to drop
out of the second debate. So they're already laying the groundwork.
(09:23):
So just to be clear, Joe Biden says, bring it on,
but then says, but you can't have an audience, and
then he says, we need to save money, so we'll
just have only a moderator. And I'm only wanting to
do this on networks and are friendly to me. And oh,
by the way, if he doesn't abide by the rules,
then we're not going to keep doing this moving forward.
(09:44):
So if he gets his brains beat in, he now
has a reason to get out of debate number two.
Speaker 1 (09:50):
I will say this, I'm glad that there's a debate.
Speaker 2 (09:53):
I honestly thought that the White House would not do
a debate.
Speaker 1 (09:57):
I really did.
Speaker 2 (09:57):
I thought maybe one, and I knew that we're gonna
come up with some ridiculous rules to pull it off, right,
That's just part of it. But what I was I
was honestly worried we get zero debates because I don't
believe we saw this to the State of the Union
that they can keep the president on his a game
whatever That a game looks like it's constantly changing because
(10:19):
of his mental decline for an hour, hour and a
half two hours. We saw it at the State of
the Union where he had this like you know, dilated
pupil kind of look thing going on small pupils for
like thirty minutes, and he was angry and yelling and
talking really fast, and then whatever it was he was
on started to wear off, and then we saw the
Joe Biden that's this stumbling, babbling, I got to have
(10:40):
some more ice cream, go to bed early, only work
four hours a day kind of guy.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
And I think that's what they're worried about. Here.
Speaker 2 (10:48):
You look at where we are with the economy right now.
You got a big macmeal that now costs eighteen dollars.
You have unemployment that's rising, and you have people that
are spending less, but you have them having to work
harder and they're technically making more money, but everything's costing
so much more that it is a major problem in
(11:10):
this country right now. We've now gotten some of the
new economic numbers that have just been updated since Biden
took office. Overall prices are now up twenty percent, Food
prices are up twenty one point three percent, rent is
up twenty point eight percent, and electricity right now is
(11:32):
up twenty eight point five percent. That is Bidenomics, and
Bidenomics is really important that the President of the United
States of America has to defend this on stage with
Donald Trump. Now, there's also something else that makes me laugh,
and that is how they're sending the sarrogates out on
(11:52):
TV to try to convince you that the economy is
actually really good right now, and we're seeing every indication
that it's not and it's going in the wrong direction.
Speaker 1 (12:02):
I'll give you a great example.
Speaker 2 (12:04):
One of those sarrogates is a former Obama economic advisor
who claimed on National TV Today that inflation was nine
to ten percent when Biden took office.
Speaker 1 (12:15):
That is a lie.
Speaker 2 (12:17):
He said this lie on Fox News Channel, and here's
what it sounded like when the host burst out in laughter.
Speaker 3 (12:25):
Time for our panel, Doug hole Deacon is here, former
CBO director, and Robert Wolf his former economic advisor to Obama.
Welcome to both of you, Robert, what was inflation when
Biden took office?
Speaker 4 (12:42):
No, no, no, come on, all right, all right, three now,
So it's.
Speaker 5 (12:49):
Thanks, I apologize, I put you on the spot there.
It was one point four percent, and that is fact.
Speaker 1 (12:55):
So Doug Hold, deacon, this, These are.
Speaker 5 (12:57):
The claims that the president.
Speaker 2 (12:59):
By the way, did you hear the laugh there? He
these guys go on TV. This former Obama economic advisor
whose whole job was to deal with this crap, looks
at the camera and says it was nine to ten percent.
Now it's at three percent. So it's sound twofold, and
everybody laughs because that's a lie, right like that, that's
a lie.
Speaker 1 (13:18):
It's not even close to that. Where was it? Go
back and listen again to.
Speaker 2 (13:22):
The lie carefully as he is stunned, like, oh I
got to answer this and I got to defend it.
Speaker 6 (13:28):
Tell you.
Speaker 1 (13:33):
No, no, no, come on, all right, all right now.
Speaker 3 (13:40):
So it's like, I apologize, I put you on the spot.
Speaker 5 (13:43):
There one point four percent, and that is fact.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
So Doug Hold's deacon this.
Speaker 5 (13:48):
These are the claims that the president has been making
that the Washington Post is giving four Pinocchio's kind of
sounds like what Robert just said, listen.
Speaker 7 (13:58):
We have dramatically reduced inflation from nine percent down so
close to three percent. We're in a situation where we're
a better situation than we were when we took office.
It was nine percent when I came to office. Nine percent.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
But look, people have a right to be concerned.
Speaker 7 (14:15):
I think inflation has gone slightly up. This was it
nine percent when I came in, and it's now down
about three percent.
Speaker 2 (14:22):
He's just a liar, and everybody around him is willing
to look you in the face and lie to you.
These are the moments that and the reason why I
want this debate. I want these debates because then you're
going to actually have to deal with this crap. You're
going to actually have to look at him in the face,
Donald Trump, and challenge him with this because you noticed,
(14:45):
like this former economic advisor to Obama, Samsire Timsent, he
knows he's lying, right, he knows it. White House pres
Secretary Jean Pierre another reason why I want this debate.
She was asked about another historic inflation report.
Speaker 1 (15:00):
Listen to her.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
Try to lie to the American people as well, telling
you everything's great.
Speaker 8 (15:05):
Inflation report Actually obviously it was positive for you guys,
but we're still seeing in placed above normal levels despite
everything the administration, and if that is doing, do you
have a sense of when households can expect to see
prices state line.
Speaker 6 (15:21):
So look, here's what I can tell you. What we're
going to continue to do is make sure that we
are when it comes to our priority as it relates
to the economy, we want to make sure that we're
fighting inflation and continue to do so.
Speaker 1 (15:31):
And so we understand we have a lot more work
to do. We get that, but.
Speaker 6 (15:36):
I would state that inflation is down more than sixty percent,
with the lowest core inflation in three years, and grocery
prices fell over the last three months. Wages are up
more than the prices over the last year and since
the pandemic, more than fifteen million jobs created and unemployment
is under four percent and that is the longest stretch
that we have seen in over fifty years. So we
are seeing some progress, some macro economic progress, but we
(15:58):
understand that there are and families that are still struggling.
That's why the President continues to do everything that he
can to lower costs, whether it's insulin at thirty five
bucks for seniors and calling for that to be for
all Americans, and a plan to build two million new homes,
lower childcare costs. This is what the President is trying
to do and has been very clear about his plan
(16:20):
for Americans as it relates to the economy. And again
in contrast to what she Willpe is trying to do
cut Medicare, cut, cut Social Security, cut medicaid.
Speaker 1 (16:30):
By the way, all those things are lies.
Speaker 2 (16:32):
We're not trying to cut so Security, We're not trying
to cut Medicare, Medicaid. She's just flat out line. But
she just said something there about inflation. She says, we
want to make sure that we're fighting inflation, and she
said that's why we're pushing new spending on entitlement. So
you're going to So the answer from the Biden administration
is because we have inflation, which created because of all
(16:53):
the COVID money that we printed right that we had
to borrow, and then inflation went through the roof because
we were just giving out free money everywhere, even though
it's not actually free.
Speaker 1 (17:03):
Now the White House says we're just gonna.
Speaker 2 (17:05):
Spend our way into oblivion and somehow that's gonna bring
inflation down because they don't understand how the economy actually works.
Let me go back, by the way to something that
we played here a couple of weeks ago, and it
was a really important point by a major top advisor
(17:27):
to Joe Biden, and and and what he said, in fact,
before I even play him, I want to play for
you Biden. In his own words, Biden says, we need
to quote stay the course on his economy.
Speaker 1 (17:39):
Listen to this.
Speaker 7 (17:40):
You gotta be steady, stay the course and continue to
produce this concredible job. And the job and by the way,
to pay for the jobs are outpacing the inflation rate
to pain. We're gonna we're gonna be able to deal
with this. It's going to take no more time, but
we're gonna.
Speaker 1 (17:56):
Focus on them. So just stay the course.
Speaker 2 (17:58):
Right, things are bad, They're not looking good for the
American people, the American worker.
Speaker 1 (18:03):
What are you gonna do.
Speaker 2 (18:03):
We're gonna just stay the course. So we're gonna stay
the course. Yes, And then what does he do? Yahoo
Finance allows him to put the lie out there again,
the lie that inflation was nine percent when he came in.
Speaker 7 (18:14):
I think inflation has gone slightly up this was at
nine percent when I came in and it's now down
around three percent. But the fact is that I think
people are just uncertain.
Speaker 1 (18:25):
That's what I mean.
Speaker 2 (18:27):
They must sit in a room at the White House
and say, Okay, there's a lot of dumb Americans.
Speaker 1 (18:32):
There's a lot of stupid people.
Speaker 2 (18:34):
We're gonna make up a number so that it looks
like we actually fought inflation instead of inflation rising under
our watch. And we're just going to go out there
and tell people that inflation was nine percent when we
came into office, and they're gonna believe us.
Speaker 1 (18:49):
And then we're going to tell them it's at three percent.
Speaker 2 (18:51):
So it's a twofold, you know, reduction and inflation, and
they're gonna somehow think that we're.
Speaker 1 (18:57):
Brilliant for this.
Speaker 2 (18:59):
Everybody members when Joe Biden became president, and they remember
what they were paying when Donald Trump was the president,
whether it's groceries, whether it's rent, whether it's whether it's
housing prices, whether it's costs of goods and services, whether
it's gas prices, whether it's energy prices. In general, like,
(19:20):
it doesn't matter. People aren't stupid. They understand that it
costs an insane amount of money now to survive in
this country compared to what it used to be. Now,
let me go back to that clip I mentioned a
moment ago. Jared Bernstein is the man at the White House.
Jared Bernstein is a guy that is supposed to be
(19:43):
able to explain everything when it comes to monetary policy,
and he struggled to explain why we don't just print
all of the money the government uses.
Speaker 1 (19:55):
He doesn't understand how the economy works.
Speaker 2 (19:58):
Now, the the important to these debates is you bring
up the policies which are disaster by this administration. Jared Bernstein,
who's the top advised the president economic policy, struggled to
explain why we don't just print all the money the
government uses, like we need another trillion, just print it.
Who cares listen to this insanity?
Speaker 9 (20:21):
The US government can't go bankrupt because we can print
our own money.
Speaker 10 (20:26):
It obviously begs the question why exactly are we borrowing
in a currency that we print ourselves. I'm waiting for
someone to stand up and say, why do we borrow
our own currency in the first place?
Speaker 11 (20:39):
Like you said, they print the dollar, so why does
the government even borrow?
Speaker 9 (20:43):
Well, the uh SO the I mean again, some of
this stuff gets some of the language that them, some
of the language and concepts are just confusing. I mean,
the government definitely prints money, and it definitely lends that money.
Which is why the government definitely prints money, and then
(21:05):
it lends that money by selling bonds. Is that what
they do?
Speaker 2 (21:11):
They they.
Speaker 9 (21:13):
Yeah, they.
Speaker 1 (21:16):
Sell bonds.
Speaker 9 (21:17):
Yeah, they sell bonds, right, since they sell bonds and
people buy the bonds and lend them the money.
Speaker 8 (21:21):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (21:22):
So a lot of times, a lot of times, at
least to my year with MMT, the language and the
concepts can be kind of unnecessarily confusing, But there is
no question that the government prints money and then it
uses that money to So yeah, I guess I'm just
(21:44):
I don't I can't really talk.
Speaker 8 (21:45):
I don't.
Speaker 1 (21:45):
I don't get it.
Speaker 9 (21:46):
I don't know what they're talking about, like, because it's like,
the government clearly prints money, it does it all the time,
and it clearly borrows Otherwise we wouldn't be having this
debt and definesst conversation. So I don't think there's any
and confusing there.
Speaker 1 (22:02):
I'm confused.
Speaker 2 (22:03):
This is a basic question asked by somebody, and you're
supposed to be able to answer this because you're the
chair of the Council of Economic Advisors to President Joe Biden.
So when they're telling you that inflation is at nine
percent and it's not, and they go out on TV
and they just continue to tell this lie over and
over and over and over and over again, that it
(22:23):
was at nine percent when he became the president of
the United States of America and he's lying to you.
Everyone needs to be calling this out. And this is
why these debates are going to be so important, right,
it's so important.
Speaker 1 (22:38):
Here's something else that just makes me laugh.
Speaker 2 (22:41):
MSNBC's Nicole Wallace praises a video of Biden challenging Donald
Trump to a debate.
Speaker 1 (22:48):
I mentioned the beginning.
Speaker 2 (22:49):
It's like he got his Mojoe back because what he's
going to debate, you know, debating is just part of
becoming the president and running for president, Like this isn't
something you should be in pressing people with. Like the
fact that the standard has become so low, the bar
is so low now for Joe Biden that we have
to praise him for debating tells you just how far
(23:12):
gone we are yet. Listen to the propagandists, the Marxist,
socialists and communists at MSNBC.
Speaker 1 (23:19):
Oh chump Well's two.
Speaker 7 (23:20):
Debates to me in twenty twenty, de Sound said he
hadn't shown up for debates. Now, exactly what you want
to debate me again?
Speaker 1 (23:25):
Well, make my day, pal. I'll even do it twice.
Let's pick the days.
Speaker 7 (23:30):
Donald, I hear you're free on Wednesdays.
Speaker 12 (23:34):
A picatrol hign everybody, it's five o'guard in New York
and what is already shaping up to be your unconventional
presidential debate season. So this morning that video was released
by President Joe Biden. You can see for yourself. He
came out swinging this trolling of Donald Trump, saying here,
you're free on Wednesdays. He challenged Trump to two presidential
(23:54):
debates while teasing him a bit about his current state
as a criminal Defendant's video was accompanied by a letter
that his campaign sent to the Commission on Presidential Debates
that outlined that he would not be participating in the debates.
Space setup. Among the Biden campaigns reasons for that, they
said the Commission's proposed debates come too late in the process,
(24:16):
that their debates are structured like an entertainment spectacle and
not a serious exchange of ideas, and that the Commission
was quote unable or unwilling to enforce the rules, referencing
Trump's talking over President Joe Biden and moderators in past debates.
Speaker 1 (24:30):
Here's it. I love this right.
Speaker 2 (24:32):
They call it an epic troll because you have the
President of the United States of America, Joe Biden saying
bring it on, and then saying, I hear you're free
on Wednesdays, mocking the fact that he's in this show
trial in New York City that is trying to put
the president out of the campaign trail, off the campaign
trail that's been successful now for a month, more than
(24:54):
a month, when this whole thing ends, and him mocking
the fact and basically giving the mental finger to Trump
saying like, yeah, hey, look at what we're doing to you, buddy.
You're locked up in court, so bring it on. And
then the media is like, oh my gosh, he's got
his mojo back because he agreed to do something in
politics which is as necessary as a human being having
(25:18):
to use the restroom every day, like debating is part
is just if you're gonna run for president, you have
to debate, like that's how normal it is.
Speaker 1 (25:27):
It's not done.
Speaker 2 (25:29):
You don't get a high five because as an adult
you go to the restroom.
Speaker 1 (25:34):
It's part of life.
Speaker 2 (25:35):
Well, being a president running for president, you're going to debate.
Speaker 1 (25:39):
It's part of what you sign up for.
Speaker 2 (25:41):
And yet they're sitting there and they're acting like this
is some grand feat by him, right the grand feet
go to CNN and David Challen. They're political guru expert guy.
What does he say about CNN hosting the first debate
on June the twenty seventh. Listen to this crap.
Speaker 13 (26:00):
I want to bring in seeing in political director David Cholling.
David put into context how big a moment this is
for the campaigns. I have to admit I thought it
was entirely possible there wouldn't be debates.
Speaker 11 (26:11):
Yeah, clearly we have seen each campaign Jake make the
calculation a debate is in their interest, for one on
the Biden side, as Jeff just laid out, because you
don't want to be dogged that you're afraid to debate,
and for Donald Trump, he is eager for the contrast
on the stage physically side by side. As we know
throughout this entire campaign.
Speaker 1 (26:31):
He's made that clear.
Speaker 11 (26:32):
To stand on a stage with Joe Biden, I would
just say, because of the stability of the race, there
really is a potential for this to be a major
shaking up kind of event. It's also got massive historical significance.
Speaker 1 (26:45):
Jake.
Speaker 11 (26:45):
I mean, you and I were not around for those
televised debates in eighteen ninety two. But we haven't seen
a former president of the United States who was defeated
as president debate the guy who succeeded him as president
on the stage together in a televised debate. It's just
a totally unprecedented situation. So much of this election could
(27:07):
be described that way.
Speaker 13 (27:08):
Thank you for acknowledging I was not there for the
Grover Cleveland debate.
Speaker 1 (27:11):
I appreciate it.
Speaker 13 (27:12):
David Wilson ends debate.
Speaker 2 (27:15):
It's amazing, right, I mean, it truly is amazing the
way that they described this.
Speaker 1 (27:21):
It's just like, oh, well, you know, they had to
do this.
Speaker 2 (27:24):
And it's so great that this is going to happen,
and it was, you know, and he's showing up and
he's just doing amazing things here.
Speaker 1 (27:32):
Right.
Speaker 2 (27:32):
It's incredible that that Joe Biden is going to debate
Donald Trump, and we're gonna host it here on the
Communist News Network, and it's going to be truly incredible
to see how this plays out. No studio audience, not
going to do debates the way they've normally been done.
But by golly, let's give him just all of this
(27:54):
incredible press acting like he's done some amazing thing show
showing up to debate for a job that you're supposed
to show up to debate. CNN, by the way, when
they announced it, listen to how they did it.
Speaker 1 (28:11):
It's hysterical, breaking me in the newsroom.
Speaker 4 (28:15):
I'm Will Blitzer in Washington, and we begin with a
major development in the twenty twenty four presidential race here
in the United States. President Joe Biden and Donald Trump
have just accepted CNN's invitation to hold a debate on
June twenty seventh. That's just in a few weeks. That's
months earlier that traditional face offs take place between two
(28:36):
presidential candidates.
Speaker 1 (28:38):
The announcement comes.
Speaker 4 (28:39):
After a heated back and forth earlier this morning between
the two. The president to challenged Trump to two debates
and then trolled him over his hush money trial.
Speaker 1 (28:48):
Listen to this.
Speaker 7 (28:51):
Donald Trump lost two debates to me in twenty twenty
Sain Sandy hadn't shown up for debate now exactly like
he wants to debate me again. Will make my day, Pal,
I'll even do it twice. Let's pick the dates. Donald,
I hear you're free on Wednesdays.
Speaker 1 (29:05):
I hear you're free on Wednesdays.
Speaker 2 (29:08):
I love how they put the trash talking in the
debate while they're supposed to be right, like non bias
for the debate. Right in the debate, you're supposed to
not be a part of the story, not only to
see an announce it, but then they talk trash about
Donald Trump in their announcement, playing the video from Joe
Biden trolling Donald Trump and his court case on Wednesdays.
(29:29):
You think it's going to be fair. No, I'm not
worried though. Donald Trump is going to destroy him in
these debates because of just how bad his policies are,
how bad the economy is, how bad the issues are
with the open border, national security, terrorists coming across the border,
and what he's done to say to Israel, I'm not
helping you anymore. And that's why these debates are going
(29:52):
to be so important, don't forget. Share this podcast please
on social media wherever you are, and if you would
write us a five star review wherever you're listening. It
helps us tremendously reach a new audience, and we'll see
you back here tomorrow morning.
Bring it on.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
That is what Joe Biden is saying to Donald Trump.
Acting like the man with aviators that loves eid ice
cream and sniff children's heads is back at it, folks.
He's back in the saddle.
Speaker 1 (00:15):
Bring it on.
Speaker 2 (00:16):
With a presidential debate plan that will now include two debates.
Speaker 1 (00:21):
But there's a caveat. They don't want.
Speaker 2 (00:26):
There to be audience members, you know that could maybe
clap for Donald Trump when he says things they like.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
Yeah, they don't want any of that.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
It's also on two hardcore communists networks. Now, Joe Biden's
campaign demanded a ban on audiences during the proposed presidential
debates with former President Donald Trump, and the demand appears
to be designed to reduce the risk of any Biden
protesters attending the event or clamping for Donald Trump.
Speaker 1 (00:54):
Now, why is that an issue?
Speaker 2 (00:55):
You may remember Donald Trump did a town hall on
CNN and CNN the communist news network, is going to
be hosting one of these two debates, and they saw
what happened. The audience started to actually clap for Donald
Trump and some of the things that he was saying,
and Caitlin Collins didn't know how to handle it.
Speaker 1 (01:16):
At CNN.
Speaker 2 (01:17):
In fact, CNN didn't know how to handle it is
a network that, heaven forbid, there might be people in
the audience that actually liked what the former president was saying.
So this seems to be done by design to shut
down in silence the people that are voting in this
country so that they'll have less of an impact on
(01:37):
what it looks like to the rest of the country. Right,
because if you see people that are clapping, and you
see people that are excited for Donald Trump, then you
may say, you know what, Yeah, I'm going to be
a little bit more proud of my support of Donald Trump,
or maybe I'm going to jump on the bandwagon and
maybe I can get a little excitement.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
Right.
Speaker 2 (01:55):
It's the same reason why we in sports it's sports
suck without fans. They just do go to a game
where there's no one there and it's not fun. It
is fun and it's exciting when you're around people that
are fans and there's cheering, like that's just changes.
Speaker 1 (02:09):
The entire dynamic.
Speaker 2 (02:10):
Now, I've done a lot of debate prep in my
career for people that are running for governor, for Senate,
for Congress, and for the presidency and I can tell
you presidential debates completely change when there is a studio audience.
And I've been in part of that and it is
a blast to watch when a candidate breaks out because
(02:31):
they get some momentum behind them. And that is exactly
why they're demanding that these debates be done in a
way where you cannot have that X factor of what
would happen if Joe Biden says something. It's just a
flat out line and the audience is like boo or no, right,
he's not willing.
Speaker 1 (02:49):
They don't want to take that risk now.
Speaker 2 (02:51):
In a letter to the Commission on Presidential Debates, the
Biden campaign said it was providing notice that it would
not participate in Commission debates. The campaign said Biden would
only participate in quote network debates, meaning they're run by
networks that are friendly to him. Now, the Trump campaign
has said, or at least Donald Trump has said today, Yeah,
(03:14):
we'll do the two debates. But that's all we had
to say about it. And this was in response to
the quote bring it on now. The Commission's model of
building huge spectacles with large audience is a great expense,
simply isn't necessary or conducive to good debates is what
the Biden campaign wrote in their letter. The debates should
(03:35):
be conducted for the benefit of the American voters watching
on television at home, and not as entertainment for an
in person audience. Right with this, you know this raucous
or disruptive partisans and donors who consume valuable debate time
with noisy spectacles of approval or jeering.
Speaker 1 (03:55):
Now, let me just read between the lines here.
Speaker 2 (03:58):
There are two things that the Biden campaign is afraid
of with these debates. One that right there would be momentum,
just like we saw in that town hall with Donald
Trump and Caitlyn Collins on CNN and it backfired on CNN.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
That's what their fear is, number one.
Speaker 2 (04:11):
But I also think their other fear is that there
would be the radicals of the left that would infiltrate
these these Marxists and socialists and communists they've been appeasing
on college campuses for example, that they would then have
to deal with if there was these protests. I think
one of the protests that you would obviously see that
is at top of mind of everybody right now listening
(04:33):
would be the anti Israel protests that probably wouldn't play
well on TV, and then it would put Joe Biden
in a bad situation, and it might give an opportunity
for Donald Trump to say, Look, this is the Democratic Party.
If you vote for Joe Biden, these are the radicals
that you're voting with. So there's two parts of this
here where they're saying we don't need this, right, like
this is something we just don't need. All right, let
(04:55):
me take a moment and talk to you real quick
about your retirement and inflation and the eroding of the
power of the dollar. Right now, inflation is well above
what the Fed's target rate is.
Speaker 1 (05:06):
You know what's happened.
Speaker 2 (05:07):
Consumer prices are much higher than they were last year,
or the year before and the year before that. That's
why all of us need a financial plan that ensures
that money that we save today will be enough for
us tomorrow. And that's why I've diversified my investments to
include gold and silver. Now, there are a lot of
gold and silver companies. You hear them every day if
(05:28):
you listen to conservative podcasts or talk radio, if you
watch TV conservative networks, you'll see tons of companies. Well,
let me tell you about Freedom Gold USA. Reason why
I love them. They preach protection and diversifying your assets.
They will not take you to put all your money
in gold and silver. Now here's the other thing that
is really important to you. You work hard for your money,
(05:49):
just like I do. And on average they charge twenty
five to thirty percent less than most major gold and
silver firms. So the ones that you hear from there
gonna charge you on average twenty five to thirty percent
more than what you're gonna pay when you call my
friends at freedom Goold USA. Now you can take control
(06:10):
your financial future right now, and you can also get
free silver in your account. They will walk you through
the process, talk to you about about diversifying your investment
your IRA you'r four oh one k or having just
physical gold in your safe Take control now. Visit FREEDOMGOLDUSA
dot com slash ben. That's Freedom Goold USA dot com
(06:33):
slash ben. Or you can call them one eight hundred
sixty five y five eight eight four three. That's one
eight hundred sixty five five eight eight four three, or
online it Freedom Goold USA dot com slash ben. Now,
as was the case with the original televised debates, the
Biden campaign goes on to write in nineteen sixty a
(06:54):
television studio with just the cannons and moderator is a better,
more cost effective way to proceed now. Now, with all
due respect to Joe Biden and the Biden campaign, these
guys don't give a crap about costs. If they did,
they wouldn't be spending more than a trillion dollars every
one hundred days, which is what our federal budget is
right now. So this idea that they are about cost
(07:16):
saving is just absurd. What Joe Biden's campaign is saying
is here's our excuse, and here's why we don't want
our guy in front of a studio audience, because we
believe it is just too big of a liability for
him now. Biden also released a video Wednesday morning proposing
two debates in June and September, saying I've received and
(07:37):
accept an invitation from CNN for a debate on June
the twenty seventh. Biden posts on X over to you Donald,
as you said, anywhere, anytime, any place, right. This is
the guy getting his mojo back here, right. It's all
about the mojo and getting it back. Former White House
Chief of Staff Ron klam A longtime trusted ally Biden
(07:58):
will help Biden with debate prep being told that being
reported by The New York Times.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
Now.
Speaker 2 (08:04):
Claim previously told MSNBC's Jensaki, who was Biden's former White
House Press secretary, that rules are going to have to
be enforced of any debate between Biden and Trump.
Speaker 1 (08:18):
So again they're trying to cook the books here.
Speaker 2 (08:20):
Donald Trump, responding on True's social says, please let this
truth serve to represent that I hereby accept debating crooked
Joe Biden on Fox News. The debate will be on Wednesday,
Act over the second. The host will be Brett Baer
and Martha McCallum. Thank you, Donald Trump that coming out
on his response to all of this, I think we
(08:42):
have to see if something different than we saw in
twenty sixteen and twenty twenty, the Biden camp said, where
the Debate Commission lost control of the debates, Trump didn't
follow the rules at all. He talked over his opponents.
There wasn't a fair division of time. It was more
of a spectacle than a debate, Claim claimed, and he
(09:02):
said that's always going to be true with Donald Trump
on the stage. But at least we can have some
rules on the front end. And why are they saying this?
I think it's pretty clear. They're basically saying that if
the first debate doesn't go well for Joe Biden and
he gets just hammered, we'll have an excuse to drop
out of the second debate. So they're already laying the groundwork.
(09:23):
So just to be clear, Joe Biden says, bring it on,
but then says, but you can't have an audience, and
then he says, we need to save money, so we'll
just have only a moderator. And I'm only wanting to
do this on networks and are friendly to me. And oh,
by the way, if he doesn't abide by the rules,
then we're not going to keep doing this moving forward.
(09:44):
So if he gets his brains beat in, he now
has a reason to get out of debate number two.
Speaker 1 (09:50):
I will say this, I'm glad that there's a debate.
Speaker 2 (09:53):
I honestly thought that the White House would not do
a debate.
Speaker 1 (09:57):
I really did.
Speaker 2 (09:57):
I thought maybe one, and I knew that we're gonna
come up with some ridiculous rules to pull it off, right,
That's just part of it. But what I was I
was honestly worried we get zero debates because I don't
believe we saw this to the State of the Union
that they can keep the president on his a game
whatever That a game looks like it's constantly changing because
(10:19):
of his mental decline for an hour, hour and a
half two hours. We saw it at the State of
the Union where he had this like you know, dilated
pupil kind of look thing going on small pupils for
like thirty minutes, and he was angry and yelling and
talking really fast, and then whatever it was he was
on started to wear off, and then we saw the
Joe Biden that's this stumbling, babbling, I got to have
(10:40):
some more ice cream, go to bed early, only work
four hours a day kind of guy.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
And I think that's what they're worried about. Here.
Speaker 2 (10:48):
You look at where we are with the economy right now.
You got a big macmeal that now costs eighteen dollars.
You have unemployment that's rising, and you have people that
are spending less, but you have them having to work
harder and they're technically making more money, but everything's costing
so much more that it is a major problem in
(11:10):
this country right now. We've now gotten some of the
new economic numbers that have just been updated since Biden
took office. Overall prices are now up twenty percent, Food
prices are up twenty one point three percent, rent is
up twenty point eight percent, and electricity right now is
(11:32):
up twenty eight point five percent. That is Bidenomics, and
Bidenomics is really important that the President of the United
States of America has to defend this on stage with
Donald Trump. Now, there's also something else that makes me laugh,
and that is how they're sending the sarrogates out on
(11:52):
TV to try to convince you that the economy is
actually really good right now, and we're seeing every indication
that it's not and it's going in the wrong direction.
Speaker 1 (12:02):
I'll give you a great example.
Speaker 2 (12:04):
One of those sarrogates is a former Obama economic advisor
who claimed on National TV Today that inflation was nine
to ten percent when Biden took office.
Speaker 1 (12:15):
That is a lie.
Speaker 2 (12:17):
He said this lie on Fox News Channel, and here's
what it sounded like when the host burst out in laughter.
Speaker 3 (12:25):
Time for our panel, Doug hole Deacon is here, former
CBO director, and Robert Wolf his former economic advisor to Obama.
Welcome to both of you, Robert, what was inflation when
Biden took office?
Speaker 4 (12:42):
No, no, no, come on, all right, all right, three now,
So it's.
Speaker 5 (12:49):
Thanks, I apologize, I put you on the spot there.
It was one point four percent, and that is fact.
Speaker 1 (12:55):
So Doug Hold, deacon, this, These are.
Speaker 5 (12:57):
The claims that the president.
Speaker 2 (12:59):
By the way, did you hear the laugh there? He
these guys go on TV. This former Obama economic advisor
whose whole job was to deal with this crap, looks
at the camera and says it was nine to ten percent.
Now it's at three percent. So it's sound twofold, and
everybody laughs because that's a lie, right like that, that's
a lie.
Speaker 1 (13:18):
It's not even close to that. Where was it? Go
back and listen again to.
Speaker 2 (13:22):
The lie carefully as he is stunned, like, oh I
got to answer this and I got to defend it.
Speaker 6 (13:28):
Tell you.
Speaker 1 (13:33):
No, no, no, come on, all right, all right now.
Speaker 3 (13:40):
So it's like, I apologize, I put you on the spot.
Speaker 5 (13:43):
There one point four percent, and that is fact.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
So Doug Hold's deacon this.
Speaker 5 (13:48):
These are the claims that the president has been making
that the Washington Post is giving four Pinocchio's kind of
sounds like what Robert just said, listen.
Speaker 7 (13:58):
We have dramatically reduced inflation from nine percent down so
close to three percent. We're in a situation where we're
a better situation than we were when we took office.
It was nine percent when I came to office. Nine percent.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
But look, people have a right to be concerned.
Speaker 7 (14:15):
I think inflation has gone slightly up. This was it
nine percent when I came in, and it's now down
about three percent.
Speaker 2 (14:22):
He's just a liar, and everybody around him is willing
to look you in the face and lie to you.
These are the moments that and the reason why I
want this debate. I want these debates because then you're
going to actually have to deal with this crap. You're
going to actually have to look at him in the face,
Donald Trump, and challenge him with this because you noticed,
(14:45):
like this former economic advisor to Obama, Samsire Timsent, he
knows he's lying, right, he knows it. White House pres
Secretary Jean Pierre another reason why I want this debate.
She was asked about another historic inflation report.
Speaker 1 (15:00):
Listen to her.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
Try to lie to the American people as well, telling
you everything's great.
Speaker 8 (15:05):
Inflation report Actually obviously it was positive for you guys,
but we're still seeing in placed above normal levels despite
everything the administration, and if that is doing, do you
have a sense of when households can expect to see
prices state line.
Speaker 6 (15:21):
So look, here's what I can tell you. What we're
going to continue to do is make sure that we
are when it comes to our priority as it relates
to the economy, we want to make sure that we're
fighting inflation and continue to do so.
Speaker 1 (15:31):
And so we understand we have a lot more work
to do. We get that, but.
Speaker 6 (15:36):
I would state that inflation is down more than sixty percent,
with the lowest core inflation in three years, and grocery
prices fell over the last three months. Wages are up
more than the prices over the last year and since
the pandemic, more than fifteen million jobs created and unemployment
is under four percent and that is the longest stretch
that we have seen in over fifty years. So we
are seeing some progress, some macro economic progress, but we
(15:58):
understand that there are and families that are still struggling.
That's why the President continues to do everything that he
can to lower costs, whether it's insulin at thirty five
bucks for seniors and calling for that to be for
all Americans, and a plan to build two million new homes,
lower childcare costs. This is what the President is trying
to do and has been very clear about his plan
(16:20):
for Americans as it relates to the economy. And again
in contrast to what she Willpe is trying to do
cut Medicare, cut, cut Social Security, cut medicaid.
Speaker 1 (16:30):
By the way, all those things are lies.
Speaker 2 (16:32):
We're not trying to cut so Security, We're not trying
to cut Medicare, Medicaid. She's just flat out line. But
she just said something there about inflation. She says, we
want to make sure that we're fighting inflation, and she
said that's why we're pushing new spending on entitlement. So
you're going to So the answer from the Biden administration
is because we have inflation, which created because of all
(16:53):
the COVID money that we printed right that we had
to borrow, and then inflation went through the roof because
we were just giving out free money everywhere, even though
it's not actually free.
Speaker 1 (17:03):
Now the White House says we're just gonna.
Speaker 2 (17:05):
Spend our way into oblivion and somehow that's gonna bring
inflation down because they don't understand how the economy actually works.
Let me go back, by the way to something that
we played here a couple of weeks ago, and it
was a really important point by a major top advisor
(17:27):
to Joe Biden, and and and what he said, in fact,
before I even play him, I want to play for
you Biden. In his own words, Biden says, we need
to quote stay the course on his economy.
Speaker 1 (17:39):
Listen to this.
Speaker 7 (17:40):
You gotta be steady, stay the course and continue to
produce this concredible job. And the job and by the way,
to pay for the jobs are outpacing the inflation rate
to pain. We're gonna we're gonna be able to deal
with this. It's going to take no more time, but
we're gonna.
Speaker 1 (17:56):
Focus on them. So just stay the course.
Speaker 2 (17:58):
Right, things are bad, They're not looking good for the
American people, the American worker.
Speaker 1 (18:03):
What are you gonna do.
Speaker 2 (18:03):
We're gonna just stay the course. So we're gonna stay
the course. Yes, And then what does he do? Yahoo
Finance allows him to put the lie out there again,
the lie that inflation was nine percent when he came in.
Speaker 7 (18:14):
I think inflation has gone slightly up this was at
nine percent when I came in and it's now down
around three percent. But the fact is that I think
people are just uncertain.
Speaker 1 (18:25):
That's what I mean.
Speaker 2 (18:27):
They must sit in a room at the White House
and say, Okay, there's a lot of dumb Americans.
Speaker 1 (18:32):
There's a lot of stupid people.
Speaker 2 (18:34):
We're gonna make up a number so that it looks
like we actually fought inflation instead of inflation rising under
our watch. And we're just going to go out there
and tell people that inflation was nine percent when we
came into office, and they're gonna believe us.
Speaker 1 (18:49):
And then we're going to tell them it's at three percent.
Speaker 2 (18:51):
So it's a twofold, you know, reduction and inflation, and
they're gonna somehow think that we're.
Speaker 1 (18:57):
Brilliant for this.
Speaker 2 (18:59):
Everybody members when Joe Biden became president, and they remember
what they were paying when Donald Trump was the president,
whether it's groceries, whether it's rent, whether it's whether it's
housing prices, whether it's costs of goods and services, whether
it's gas prices, whether it's energy prices. In general, like,
(19:20):
it doesn't matter. People aren't stupid. They understand that it
costs an insane amount of money now to survive in
this country compared to what it used to be. Now,
let me go back to that clip I mentioned a
moment ago. Jared Bernstein is the man at the White House.
Jared Bernstein is a guy that is supposed to be
(19:43):
able to explain everything when it comes to monetary policy,
and he struggled to explain why we don't just print
all of the money the government uses.
Speaker 1 (19:55):
He doesn't understand how the economy works.
Speaker 2 (19:58):
Now, the the important to these debates is you bring
up the policies which are disaster by this administration. Jared Bernstein,
who's the top advised the president economic policy, struggled to
explain why we don't just print all the money the
government uses, like we need another trillion, just print it.
Who cares listen to this insanity?
Speaker 9 (20:21):
The US government can't go bankrupt because we can print
our own money.
Speaker 10 (20:26):
It obviously begs the question why exactly are we borrowing
in a currency that we print ourselves. I'm waiting for
someone to stand up and say, why do we borrow
our own currency in the first place?
Speaker 11 (20:39):
Like you said, they print the dollar, so why does
the government even borrow?
Speaker 9 (20:43):
Well, the uh SO the I mean again, some of
this stuff gets some of the language that them, some
of the language and concepts are just confusing. I mean,
the government definitely prints money, and it definitely lends that money.
Which is why the government definitely prints money, and then
(21:05):
it lends that money by selling bonds. Is that what
they do?
Speaker 2 (21:11):
They they.
Speaker 9 (21:13):
Yeah, they.
Speaker 1 (21:16):
Sell bonds.
Speaker 9 (21:17):
Yeah, they sell bonds, right, since they sell bonds and
people buy the bonds and lend them the money.
Speaker 8 (21:21):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (21:22):
So a lot of times, a lot of times, at
least to my year with MMT, the language and the
concepts can be kind of unnecessarily confusing, But there is
no question that the government prints money and then it
uses that money to So yeah, I guess I'm just
(21:44):
I don't I can't really talk.
Speaker 8 (21:45):
I don't.
Speaker 1 (21:45):
I don't get it.
Speaker 9 (21:46):
I don't know what they're talking about, like, because it's like,
the government clearly prints money, it does it all the time,
and it clearly borrows Otherwise we wouldn't be having this
debt and definesst conversation. So I don't think there's any
and confusing there.
Speaker 1 (22:02):
I'm confused.
Speaker 2 (22:03):
This is a basic question asked by somebody, and you're
supposed to be able to answer this because you're the
chair of the Council of Economic Advisors to President Joe Biden.
So when they're telling you that inflation is at nine
percent and it's not, and they go out on TV
and they just continue to tell this lie over and
over and over and over and over again, that it
(22:23):
was at nine percent when he became the president of
the United States of America and he's lying to you.
Everyone needs to be calling this out. And this is
why these debates are going to be so important, right,
it's so important.
Speaker 1 (22:38):
Here's something else that just makes me laugh.
Speaker 2 (22:41):
MSNBC's Nicole Wallace praises a video of Biden challenging Donald
Trump to a debate.
Speaker 1 (22:48):
I mentioned the beginning.
Speaker 2 (22:49):
It's like he got his Mojoe back because what he's
going to debate, you know, debating is just part of
becoming the president and running for president, Like this isn't
something you should be in pressing people with. Like the
fact that the standard has become so low, the bar
is so low now for Joe Biden that we have
to praise him for debating tells you just how far
(23:12):
gone we are yet. Listen to the propagandists, the Marxist,
socialists and communists at MSNBC.
Speaker 1 (23:19):
Oh chump Well's two.
Speaker 7 (23:20):
Debates to me in twenty twenty, de Sound said he
hadn't shown up for debates. Now, exactly what you want
to debate me again?
Speaker 1 (23:25):
Well, make my day, pal. I'll even do it twice.
Let's pick the days.
Speaker 7 (23:30):
Donald, I hear you're free on Wednesdays.
Speaker 12 (23:34):
A picatrol hign everybody, it's five o'guard in New York
and what is already shaping up to be your unconventional
presidential debate season. So this morning that video was released
by President Joe Biden. You can see for yourself. He
came out swinging this trolling of Donald Trump, saying here,
you're free on Wednesdays. He challenged Trump to two presidential
(23:54):
debates while teasing him a bit about his current state
as a criminal Defendant's video was accompanied by a letter
that his campaign sent to the Commission on Presidential Debates
that outlined that he would not be participating in the debates.
Space setup. Among the Biden campaigns reasons for that, they
said the Commission's proposed debates come too late in the process,
(24:16):
that their debates are structured like an entertainment spectacle and
not a serious exchange of ideas, and that the Commission
was quote unable or unwilling to enforce the rules, referencing
Trump's talking over President Joe Biden and moderators in past debates.
Speaker 1 (24:30):
Here's it. I love this right.
Speaker 2 (24:32):
They call it an epic troll because you have the
President of the United States of America, Joe Biden saying
bring it on, and then saying, I hear you're free
on Wednesdays, mocking the fact that he's in this show
trial in New York City that is trying to put
the president out of the campaign trail, off the campaign
trail that's been successful now for a month, more than
(24:54):
a month, when this whole thing ends, and him mocking
the fact and basically giving the mental finger to Trump
saying like, yeah, hey, look at what we're doing to you, buddy.
You're locked up in court, so bring it on. And
then the media is like, oh my gosh, he's got
his mojo back because he agreed to do something in
politics which is as necessary as a human being having
(25:18):
to use the restroom every day, like debating is part
is just if you're gonna run for president, you have
to debate, like that's how normal it is.
Speaker 1 (25:27):
It's not done.
Speaker 2 (25:29):
You don't get a high five because as an adult
you go to the restroom.
Speaker 1 (25:34):
It's part of life.
Speaker 2 (25:35):
Well, being a president running for president, you're going to debate.
Speaker 1 (25:39):
It's part of what you sign up for.
Speaker 2 (25:41):
And yet they're sitting there and they're acting like this
is some grand feat by him, right the grand feet
go to CNN and David Challen. They're political guru expert guy.
What does he say about CNN hosting the first debate
on June the twenty seventh. Listen to this crap.
Speaker 13 (26:00):
I want to bring in seeing in political director David Cholling.
David put into context how big a moment this is
for the campaigns. I have to admit I thought it
was entirely possible there wouldn't be debates.
Speaker 11 (26:11):
Yeah, clearly we have seen each campaign Jake make the
calculation a debate is in their interest, for one on
the Biden side, as Jeff just laid out, because you
don't want to be dogged that you're afraid to debate,
and for Donald Trump, he is eager for the contrast
on the stage physically side by side. As we know
throughout this entire campaign.
Speaker 1 (26:31):
He's made that clear.
Speaker 11 (26:32):
To stand on a stage with Joe Biden, I would
just say, because of the stability of the race, there
really is a potential for this to be a major
shaking up kind of event. It's also got massive historical significance.
Speaker 1 (26:45):
Jake.
Speaker 11 (26:45):
I mean, you and I were not around for those
televised debates in eighteen ninety two. But we haven't seen
a former president of the United States who was defeated
as president debate the guy who succeeded him as president
on the stage together in a televised debate. It's just
a totally unprecedented situation. So much of this election could
(27:07):
be described that way.
Speaker 13 (27:08):
Thank you for acknowledging I was not there for the
Grover Cleveland debate.
Speaker 1 (27:11):
I appreciate it.
Speaker 13 (27:12):
David Wilson ends debate.
Speaker 2 (27:15):
It's amazing, right, I mean, it truly is amazing the
way that they described this.
Speaker 1 (27:21):
It's just like, oh, well, you know, they had to
do this.
Speaker 2 (27:24):
And it's so great that this is going to happen,
and it was, you know, and he's showing up and
he's just doing amazing things here.
Speaker 1 (27:32):
Right.
Speaker 2 (27:32):
It's incredible that that Joe Biden is going to debate
Donald Trump, and we're gonna host it here on the
Communist News Network, and it's going to be truly incredible
to see how this plays out. No studio audience, not
going to do debates the way they've normally been done.
But by golly, let's give him just all of this
(27:54):
incredible press acting like he's done some amazing thing show
showing up to debate for a job that you're supposed
to show up to debate. CNN, by the way, when
they announced it, listen to how they did it.
Speaker 1 (28:11):
It's hysterical, breaking me in the newsroom.
Speaker 4 (28:15):
I'm Will Blitzer in Washington, and we begin with a
major development in the twenty twenty four presidential race here
in the United States. President Joe Biden and Donald Trump
have just accepted CNN's invitation to hold a debate on
June twenty seventh. That's just in a few weeks. That's
months earlier that traditional face offs take place between two
(28:36):
presidential candidates.
Speaker 1 (28:38):
The announcement comes.
Speaker 4 (28:39):
After a heated back and forth earlier this morning between
the two. The president to challenged Trump to two debates
and then trolled him over his hush money trial.
Speaker 1 (28:48):
Listen to this.
Speaker 7 (28:51):
Donald Trump lost two debates to me in twenty twenty
Sain Sandy hadn't shown up for debate now exactly like
he wants to debate me again. Will make my day, Pal,
I'll even do it twice. Let's pick the dates. Donald,
I hear you're free on Wednesdays.
Speaker 1 (29:05):
I hear you're free on Wednesdays.
Speaker 2 (29:08):
I love how they put the trash talking in the
debate while they're supposed to be right, like non bias
for the debate. Right in the debate, you're supposed to
not be a part of the story, not only to
see an announce it, but then they talk trash about
Donald Trump in their announcement, playing the video from Joe
Biden trolling Donald Trump and his court case on Wednesdays.
(29:29):
You think it's going to be fair. No, I'm not
worried though. Donald Trump is going to destroy him in
these debates because of just how bad his policies are,
how bad the economy is, how bad the issues are
with the open border, national security, terrorists coming across the border,
and what he's done to say to Israel, I'm not
helping you anymore. And that's why these debates are going
(29:52):
to be so important, don't forget. Share this podcast please

helps us tremendously reach a new audience, and we'll see
you back here tomorrow morning.
