Speaker 1 (00:10):
Independent thoughts, independent life. This is Chad Benson.

Speaker 2 (00:15):
Polls, polls, polls, pulls, polls, polls, polls, What to believe?
What to believe? I don't know what to believe. What
am I supposed to believe? I got no believe none
of it. Believe some of it. It's up to you.
These are the only polls that matter. I tell you
this over and over again. I'll continue to say this.
There are seven states, of which, realistically four of them

(00:35):
you pay absolute attention to. Georgia, Okay, big time. Maybe
five you put Arizona in there, absolutely pay attention to Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania.
Those things are the ones you pay attention to. North Carolina.

(00:57):
I think it's gone a little bit sideways there, thank you,
Mark Robinson. But these are the ones you pay attention to.
Right the Sun Belt does, the Rust Belt, the Belt
of Belts pay attention to those polls. All the rest
of them don't matter. When somebody comes out goes nationally

(01:18):
cobblo is winning, doesn't matter. We don't vote like that.
Why don't we vote like that? Because it's not the
way this was designed. The founding father said, hey, look,
we don't want the minority being ruled over by the majority. Okay,
to the point where if we got rid of the
electoral college, where would President's campaign at anybody? How about

(01:42):
this California? And when I mean California, I mean San Francisco,
Los Angeles, Chicago, New York, maybe Dallas. I mean you're
only going to go to a few places, so we'd
be electoral college. And because of that we have these
seven swings dates. Those are the things that matter. Everything

(02:05):
else means very little. And if you live in one
of those states that's red or blue and you're like,
I wish your place matters, it matters maybe to raising
dollars at this point, but outside of that it doesn't.
The polls that matter are seven swing states. What do
they mean? I don't know. And the reason is simple.
Buyers are liars. Buyers are liars. Trump, for those of

(02:31):
you not keeping score his followers, they lied in twenty sixteen,
they were underrepresented in twenty twenty, both in twenty sixteen
in twenty twenty. But a lot of that has to
do with the fact that they don't want to tell
the person on the editor and the phone or whatever
they're doing who they're voting. For there is a distrust

(02:51):
in there, so it is hard to get a feel
of who's on top. Here. We are forty some days
away from the day, and I say this because let's
be out of honest. The day is not the day
it used to be, because we've already got people voting
across the country.

Speaker 3 (03:09):
Mark Halprin As I was told a month ago by
the Trump people, they're not necessarily right, but the Times
the Times poll reflects reality and it matches up some
private polling suggests that what they forecast a month ago,
which is at over time, once the Harris honeymoon ended,
that she would she would fall back to where Joe
Biden was before the Biden Trump debate, which is to

(03:31):
say behind sufficiently in the four Sun belt states that
are a path to victory, was winning Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin,
and Nebraska too. If the Republicans changed the rules in Nebraska,
that would lead her with no paths. Doesn't mean the
Trump people are right, But if you do as I do,
we just talked to both sides and credit those who

(03:52):
are making arguments. Is possibly right, Sean? Is it possible
that we're right where the Republicans said we'd be based
on the Times poll that Donald Trump is pulling the
sun veiled States back and she's going to have a
very narrow single path and maybe.

Speaker 2 (04:05):
No path, maybe no path. The Sean Mark Alperd is
talking about is this spicer, the Sean spicy mcspicers.

Speaker 4 (04:12):
Then the key thing in that pole that I think
is interesting is that it's Trump's at fifty in Arizona
forty nine and Georgia forty nine. In North Carolina, you
really want to be at fifty to start to feel
a little bit of ease still on the margin error
in both Georgia and North Carolina. But this is exactly
what they've been saying all along, And I don't think
it's a stretch to think that those three states in particular,

(04:33):
who have a history of voting Republican, Georgia and Arizona
in particular come back home.

Speaker 5 (04:37):
Right.

Speaker 4 (04:38):
They were anomalies of extremely close last cycle. So that's
not the North Carolina I think will continue to be close.
But the bottom line is if you take those three states,
which I do think Trump will, all you need is
want in that blue wall, so Michigan, Wisconsin, or Pennsylvania.
I'm particularly bullish on Pennsylvania. But the bottom line is
that's if he picks off one more state he wins,

(05:00):
that puts them back in the white House. She needs
to run, she needs to get everything. And that's the
difference when it comes to electoral college is that it's a.

Speaker 2 (05:08):
Much better road for him than it is for her.
Right now, that's it much better road, an easier path.
And he's also speaking the language those people on to
here Pennsylvania, talking about oil, talking about jobs, manufacturing, Michigan,
the same kind of thing. I'm going to go on
and on in these places, right Arizona, immigration, Nevada, no tips.

(05:30):
I mean, we can walk through it. And part of
the problem is her, I mean, besides all of the
other things that go on with her, the reality is
is she's allowing herself to be defined by the Trump
campaign and at the same time also trying to be
defined by her people, not defining herself, which is what
she needs to do.

Speaker 6 (05:49):
That a lot of people have ord kama is we
don't know her answer to anything.

Speaker 2 (05:55):
Okay, you know everything.

Speaker 6 (05:58):
And that's why I would not vote for him, and
people should vote for him. But people also are expected
to have some idea of what the program is of
the person you're supposed to vote for. You're just not
supposed to say, well, you have to vote for why
because X is this, that and the other. Let's find
out a little bit more. And I don't think it's
a lot to ask her to sit down for a
real interview as opposed to a pup piece in which

(06:21):
she describes like her her feels are growing up and
opening a nice.

Speaker 2 (06:25):
Law, which is voting. I mean it's spot on. I've
got nice lawns. People were proud of their lawns. I
come from a middle class background. I mean, it's all
the same. She needs to answer questions and the questions people.
You know, it's funny because I will I talk to
people every day about this and they'll say, well, she
tells you what she No, she doesn't tell me, she's
other people tell me for her. She's never answered the

(06:47):
question of why she went from point A to point B,
why she was against fracking and it was absolutely a
must that we stop it, and all of a sudden
she is now flipped. Why is that? She has not
explained it. Other people have said she's no longer for
banning fracking. She has not told me why she came
to that. I'm not saying you can't come to those conclusions.

(07:09):
They're not that hard to even spin it if you'd
like to. But I've not heard it from you. And
people are asking questions. The honeymoon period, at least somewhat
by some people out there in the media, is over.

Speaker 7 (07:22):
Do you think she needs to be presenting more meat
on the bones of I get that she's from a
middle class family. It's great, and I get that she
feels people's pains. Great, but what about, like, here are
the five things I'm going to do directly for you.

Speaker 8 (07:36):
Does need to be doing more of that?

Speaker 9 (07:37):
Well, she'll be doing some of that tomorrow once you're
put with her economic plan. But people like to have
a connection to whoever is running for is that they
share their experience, that they understand their lives, and I
think that's what she is establishing. But I never give
advice to presidential candidates. The wisdom that they have astute

(08:01):
political students that they had to become the presidential candidate
says they know something about.

Speaker 2 (08:07):
The market out there.

Speaker 9 (08:08):
But I do think that the one issue in terms
of the cost of living, people want to hear something
very specific she has saying that in that ad, but
also tomorrow in our economic plan. I have no complaint
about how she is going forward.

Speaker 2 (08:25):
Jack taperass Look, we get it. She's from a middle
class family. Blah blah blah, we get it. She needs
to put some more meat on the bone. She needs
to explain a little bit more her positions and how
she went from point A to point b.

Speaker 10 (08:33):
Oh.

Speaker 2 (08:34):
I never get involved in presidential campaigns, except for the
part where I stabbed that old guy in the back
that was president and may still be president. We're not
quite there. They're trying to put lipstick on a pig
and saying, this is it. This is what you guys
have always clamored for, this is what you want. Somebody's
gonna go chat you ted lipstick on a pig and
threating it to a woman. It's a phrase, it's a saying,

(08:55):
get over yourself. But I want you guys to listen
to this. Chris Saliza one of the best out there
for a polster guy that gets it in so many
different ways when it comes to what goes on in
the world of politics.

Speaker 11 (09:07):
There's the single most amazing poll number about Kamala Harris
in July in an NBC poll, thirty two percent of
people saw her positively, fifty percent of people saw her negatively.
In a poll NBC released over the weekend, forty eight
percent positive for Harris, forty five percent negative and eighteen

(09:29):
point change. That is literally unheard of, folks. I cannot
tell you how strange that is the last time that
NBC had anything like that in terms of a flip
flop over this short period of time. July August September
three months was when George W. Bush's numbers bumped way, way,

(09:51):
way way up after the September eleven, two thousand and
one attacks. If you remember, George Bush was not all
that popular. It had been elected nine months early, but
not super popular, and obviously his popularity went through the
stratosphere in the wake of the attack on America on
September eleventh.

Speaker 2 (10:07):
And here's the thing. The way that they have framed
this is very similar that while it is not a
foreign adversary that is attacking America, it is Donald Trump.
So automatically she goes from negative to both. You could
put anybody in that position, and as long as they're
running against Trump, their popularity will skyrocket. That's the way

(10:32):
that they framed all of this. That's the way that
they're doing this.

Speaker 12 (10:35):
She is the worst polling Democrat against Donald Trump in
history on national polls. No one is performing worsener. No
one's forming worsener among Blacks, among Hispanics, the worst for
worming democrat in modern history among the demographics, worst performing
polling wise among Jews. She is losing key factions of
the Democratic basic Muslim voters. She's under fifty two percent

(10:56):
in the latest care poll among Black Muslims.

Speaker 2 (10:58):
She is not doing that's nationally and remember we don't
vote nationally. Why it matters there when it comes to Muslims.
Michigan has a large Muslim population. She's not doing well
because she's not a good candidate, and everybody else is
defining what she thinks, both the left and the right.

Speaker 13 (12:58):
Sure you're listening to the Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 14 (13:11):
I came to off as president Afghanistan every place. Vietnam
as America's longest war. I was determined to end it,
and I did. It was a hard decision, but the
right decision. Was a decision accompanied by tragedy. Thirteen brave
Americans lost their lives along with hundreds of Afghans and
a suicide bomb. I think those lost lives. I think
them every day. We honored our sacrifices as well.

Speaker 2 (13:34):
Wow, that was very touching. Biden. The UN. A lot
of stuff going on at the UN For those who
not kimming score, they're all getting to their playing crab
ass for the next few days as they get their
session back up and running. Biden had his goodbye protest,
of course, because you know that's what we do.

Speaker 15 (13:51):
In a total of thirty two protesters were arrested last night,
mostly involved in protesting and speaking out against.

Speaker 13 (13:58):
The war in Gossip Now.

Speaker 15 (14:00):
The protesters started in Madison Square Park in March to
the east side there.

Speaker 13 (14:04):
Please block them from.

Speaker 15 (14:05):
Getting into the United Nations or anywhere.

Speaker 2 (14:07):
Clothes mostly about Palestine. That's kind of where we're at
at this point in time. Everything is about Palestine and
if you guys know what's going on over there, obviously
now it's expanded to Lebanon, Israel is no joke for
those of you not keeping score. They don't give two f's.
They're there to handle business at this point in time,

(14:29):
both parties done.

Speaker 16 (14:32):
It's to continue and.

Speaker 17 (14:34):
I hope it will finish as as possible.

Speaker 2 (14:38):
That is a doctor who is over there, who is
seeing the damage being done. And it started last week
with the explosion of the nut crushers as I like
to call them, with the pagers and has expanded to bombing,
and we can go on and on about what they
have done. They are telling everybody, get the f out.
If you know somebody who's in Hesbela, you're in Hesbela
if you don't move away. I want the problem of

(15:02):
Gaza to be repeated here regarding shelling and mombing of hospitals.
And that's what they're seeing now. Is hes blaw in
a situation like Palestine, No, not so much, but there
are areas of which hes Belah controls a lot. They
have much more sophisticated weapons, therefore offering a much more

(15:26):
stout kind of offense, and Israel's not taking it. They've
got what five fronts, and we're now sending more people
over there three two, three, five, three eight, twenty four,
twenty three at Chad Benson Show. And it's your Twitter,
your Instagram, all of the other things right here in
the Chad Benson Show. Uh it is. It is getting precarious.

(15:52):
Let's not bs ourselves, all right, Let's be open and
honest over the fact that we are now sending more
carriers over there. On top of that, yesterday Zelensky.

Speaker 5 (16:01):
Russia can only be forced into peace, and that is
exactly what's needed, forcing Russia into peace and the soul
aggressor in this war, the soul violator of the UN Charter.

Speaker 2 (16:15):
Do I think that they're going to be forced into peace?
I think everybody's waiting to see what happens on November fifth.
That's just the reality in November fifth is a let's
just say, everybody's waiting to find out what happens during
the election season. Maybe the best way to put it.
Could it be November fifth? It's possible. Is it likely
to be November sixth, seventh, and eighth? Also possible? Is

(16:39):
there likely to be challenges across the way when it
comes to courts and how things were handled? Again possible.
We're going to find that out. But I think there's
a lot of countries out there waiting to see what
the next move is and waiting to see if it
is going to be business as usual with Kamala or
you're gonna have Trump and again, new sheriff in town,
new rules, what does that look like. I think a

(17:02):
lot of people are waiting around the globe to find
that out. Three two, three, five, three eight, twenty four
to twenty three at Chad Benson Show is your Twitter.
Tweet at US text the program, Brett Pharv says, now,
I didn't do anything when it came to misappropriation of
funds from welfare stuff. But he's got Parkinson's announce that

(17:22):
yesterday we're going to talk a bit about that because
there's an author out there. It's got a new book
who says if you let your kid play tackle football,
that is a form of child abuse. Three two, three, five,
three eight, twenty four to twenty three at Chad Benson
Show's your Twitter. It is the Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 16 (17:38):
Son, Chad Benson, Shoe.

Speaker 1 (17:59):
Independent, Independent Life. This is Chad Benson.

Speaker 2 (18:04):
They've got some interesting stuff to talk about next hour.
When it comes to the assassination attempts, and people are asking,
why did the FBI and everybody release this letter from
this guy saying that he was going to try to
kill Trump and he's sorry he failed, and blah blah
blah blah blah. I think there's a lot of reasons
for that. Everybody's always looking for a conspiracy, you know,
they're always looking for something like we couldn't get the
manifesto from the Covenant shooter, but we got this within hours.

(18:28):
It's because they want to damage Trump or they want
to threaten Trump's life. Settle down with too many conspiracy theories.
If you see a conspiracy around every corner, you need
to take a deep breath. I think there are several
reasons why they released this, There's no doubt about that,
and I think part of is the fact that it
was already in somebody else's hands and the fear factor
of it being released by him rather than them, I

(18:50):
think would have been a bad look. But there's lots
of failures here, and I got some good stuff with
Richard Blumenthal, who is a Democrat, talking about how bad
they failed, perfect storm of incompetence. And that's just on
the first of the two assassination tests. Before we get
to that. Yesterday, Brett Farv who was well, he was
at a congressional hearing and this had all to do

(19:11):
with what was going on in Mississippi and a misallocation
of funds and it was a you know, I had
to do with welfare. Was really bad. But during the
midst of it he said this, sadly.

Speaker 18 (19:21):
I also lost an investment in the company that I
believed was developing a breakthrough concussion drug. I thought it
would help others. And I'm sure you'll understand why it's
too late for me because I've recently been diagnosed with Parkinson's.

Speaker 2 (19:36):
Twenty years he was in the NFL. Recently diagnosed with Parkinson's.
Why is that lots of blows to the head. It's
a possibility. I mean, you know, go and look at
Michael J. Fox. Didn't play football, but he's got Parkinson's.
He's at a possibility. It's ben Several doctors are talking
about this and more and more. And look, I'm going

(19:56):
to say this. I'm a big proponent in letting your
brain grow before you make that decision.

Speaker 12 (20:01):
Kids probably should not be tackling young and getting hundreds
of hits to the head while their brains developing.

Speaker 2 (20:06):
I absolutely agree on that. I think there's a time
and a place for it. I think teaching kids along
the way how to do things properly, but trying to
avoid these things as much as possible. Remember, the helmet
is there not to protect your brain, but to protect
your skull.

Speaker 19 (20:22):
In general, repeated hits to the head are linked to
neurodegenerative diseases.

Speaker 2 (20:27):
Yes, Now, do I think it's child abuse. And I
bring that up because this is an interesting thing. There's
an author out there who believes you let your kid
play sports, it's child abuse.

Speaker 20 (20:38):
Miami Dolphins quarterback to a tongue of Bailois, says he has
no plans to retire after suffering his fourth concussion in
the last five years. The latest head injury, broadcast live
during prime time is really reigniting calls for the league
to do more to prioritize player safety. Meanwhile, eleven young
football players, eleven of them, have died across the America

(21:00):
since July first, seven in August alone. The causes of
death range from heat stroke to brain injuries. And the
most recent evidence that critics say prove that tackle football
should be banned for kids. Nathan Coleman, Lamb College professor
and author of a new book releasing later on this
year called The End of College Football, argues that kids
playing tackle football should be considered a form of child abuse.

Speaker 2 (21:22):
Interesting. Now, again, some of those kids died from head injuries.
Some of them died from head injury, well, issues with
their head because of heat, heat related death, things of
that nature. Sometimes it's just a natural situation where maybe
their heart had issues long before, and it got past
a routine screening all of those. It's not just strictly
head issues. For me, it was like a so whatcification

(21:44):
of America. Now it's an understanding now that hey, guess what.
Brain injuries are real and we need to take a
look at them. What is a long term damage done
to everybody who participates in these? For some people it's minimal,
for others it is big if we can prevent some
of them. Not saying we don't get we're not going
to get rid of it. That's stupid and it's not
child abuse. But we do need to look at this.

(22:06):
I mean soccer in this country now, they don't want
you head in the ball till you're like thirteen or fourteen.
I understand that. Look, you teach the proper techniques, but
anytime you can avoid what's going on with the dome,
I think it's a damn good thing, allowing us to
grow into ourselves at a maturing level. It's a reason

(22:29):
that ice hockey Jack is fourteen now, my son he
plays ice hockey. They're allowed to hit now. They weren't
when they were little, and the reason was simple, they
weren't ready for it. They want you to develop to
a certain level.

Speaker 21 (22:44):
The main issue here, and you're getting at this. We
see obviously the deaths and every death of a young
person a child due to football is really unforgivable. But
it's not just the deaths that we see on the
field that are really the problem with football. It's the
fact that everyone who participates is suffering from life altering harm.

Speaker 18 (23:05):
Right.

Speaker 21 (23:05):
And what we know is that every two point six
years of participation in tackle football doubles the chances of
contracting chronic dramatic encephalopathy CTE, a degenerative brain condition, right.
And in the United States, we know that in many
parts of the country, especially the parts of the country
where football is most beloved, kids are starting to play

(23:25):
footba at the age of five years old. And if
you start playing at the age of five years old
and you continue for all that time, right, you're accumulating
an unbelievably tremendous amount of harm.

Speaker 2 (23:36):
He's spot on, And again, this isn't about eliminating because
I think people are going to hear that you want
to eliminate football. No, that's a certification. No, what it
is is what can we do to protect the brains
of our children longer, and then give them the opportunity
as they get older start to understand it. By the way,
flag football is huge and it's growing big, and part

(23:58):
of that is great. You get the skins to get
all of the things that you're able to put together.
Then as you get older, you learn how to do
it correctly. I don't think kids should be playing tackle
at a young age. I just don't. And it goes
back to the head thing. I don't think we need
to damage our kids head.

Speaker 21 (24:14):
For me, the sport is morally unsustainable. So that means
that the NFL, college football, high school, Pop Warner, none
of these levels of football are ultimately defensible. But it's
a complex question. So if we're thinking about the children
piece first of all, which we started with, right, the
other aspect of it, we have to understand hids are
not at an age where they can consent to the
risks of football. When we start playing at five years old,

(24:37):
at ten years old, at twelve years old, right, the
harm that they are accumulating to their brains that's going
to transform their lives, they are not in a position
to consent to that harm.

Speaker 2 (24:46):
And I get where he's going with this now. I
think you get to an age if you know, you're
a sophomore, maybe a junior senior in high school right
or the JV varsity. I think you can get to
that point you could start saying all right, it's okay,
the game's not going anywhere. I mean that movie Concussion.
I mean they own a day of the week, they
own several days of the week. Football. College football owns Saturday.

(25:08):
The NFL owns Sunday, Monday, and Thursday night. It is
hard to say we're going to get rid of it.
We just can't. But can we do things that are better?
I absolutely think we can. And kids dying on the field,
it's a horrible situation. And the NFL's got to look
at what's going on too. I've heard from several people

(25:29):
over the last couple of weeks that said, look, you
know what, They've got to look at this like boxing
is a perfect example. They will not give you a
license in certain states if you're at the point where
they look at you and say you no longer can
do this, and this is boxing, you're punch drunk. Essentially,
you're a mess, and you're going to be a mess

(25:51):
and we can't allow this. We don't want you dying
in our ring. And I look at the NFL and
I think, at what point in time is that what
it's going to take, Because no doubt Tua is suffered
way too and we're not talking about little concussions that
we don't see deaths by a thousand cuts. We're talking
about massive hits over and over again where he's doing
the you know, the rigor mortis like thing where his

(26:12):
hands and his feet and everything are all crunched up.
And that's the last thing the NFL needs. It's the
last thing that football needs across the board.

Speaker 21 (26:22):
I was having a conversation with former punter Chris Clue yesterday,
and actually Chris Clue's argument was that that's when he
sees tackle football as being a kind of like a
legitimate starting point at an age where we say, okay,
you can drive, now, you can join the military, right,
you can vote. If we're talking about consent more broadly
in the United States, I vote that age perhaps that's
the time that you can start playing tackle football too.

Speaker 2 (26:44):
Well. I think you can take play it younger, but
I do think we need to get a certain level
of development when it comes to the Dome. I think
most people understand that most people want that for their kids,
and I think we'll see that more and more often.
And I also think at some point in time it's
going to become a money issue, and I think we
forget about this where high schools and colleges are going

(27:08):
to have trouble getting insurance coverage for certain things, especially
as the lawsuits roll in. See the NFL in the
battle they've been going through for over a decade when
it comes to CT and brain damage three two, three, five,
three eight, twenty four to twenty three at Chedminsons Show
with your Twitter tweet as text the program, Will they
or won't they debate again? Speaking of brain damage.

Speaker 22 (27:27):
With Vice President Harris ramping up the pressure on former
President Trump to debate her again after she agreed to
a second face off in October.

Speaker 13 (27:35):
I would like another debate.

Speaker 2 (27:36):
We have a lot more thing this beat.

Speaker 22 (27:38):
Trump so far has not accepted, and in a new
interview he's pledging if he loses the race this time,
he will not run again in twenty twenty eight.

Speaker 13 (27:46):
I think that that will be.

Speaker 2 (27:47):
That will be, and I don't see that at all.

Speaker 13 (27:49):
I think hopefully we're going to be successful.

Speaker 2 (27:52):
I just look, he's not going to run again because
if he loses this time, he'll have lost two in
a row, plus potentially the midterms twice, which will be
blamed on him, which in many cases you can point
out that he had a big hand in. So I
think if he loses this and there isn't the red
wave that some people think, and they lose the House

(28:12):
as well, or they lose the Senate, whatever you're going
to go, the luster is off this guy, and it's
time to move on. And the debate thing at this
point in time, you know, what's the use for another
debate is the way he looks at it. It's hard
to argue that at this point in time three two, three, five,
three eight, twenty four to twenty three actually had benon show?
Is your Twitter tweet at a text of the program.

(28:33):
Love hearing from all of you. Raycon best earbuds around now.

the Raycons come in. They are awesome when I'm playing sports.

It's a Chad Benson show.

Speaker 23 (29:55):
Running with scissors.

Speaker 13 (29:56):
Sounds great compared.

Speaker 24 (29:57):
To this, say, I'd say we're not moving in a
very good direction right now.

Speaker 19 (30:03):
I think in a lot of ways we are progressing
when it comes to like inclusion and like opening ourselves
up to like new ideals.

Speaker 20 (30:11):
And stuff like that.

Speaker 19 (30:12):
But I think in a lot of ways also, like
with the economy, it's not looking too good. So I
think it depends on what specifically you're talking about, but
I would say overall, I think we're doing a lot
better than most countries right now.

Speaker 25 (30:23):
Very divisive time for people, especially at this election. I
mean they are complete polar opposite, and I think it's
really hard to have that conversation with people and kind
of have a peaceful conversation about disagreements. So I hope
we're going in the right direction. I do enjoy this country.

(30:43):
I love the freedoms that we have, and I hope
they stay protected.

Speaker 2 (30:47):
Amen. Those are college kids, what I know, right, They
love the freedoms, they love the country. Is that always true?
It's not always true. It's not need to learn to
love the country. They shouldn't have to be taught that.
But they don't understand that. They go to colleges and

(31:08):
they're told all the time, Hey, you're at college, let
me tell you something of this country is awful and horrible.
It's the only country that's ever been awful and horrible,
and you guys need to understand that.

Speaker 24 (31:16):
Quite scary knowing how much information is censored these days,
a lot seems to be brushed under the rug and
exposed later on. I'd say we're not moving in a
very good direction right now.

Speaker 26 (31:28):
Right now, it's kind of heading in a negative direction
because I feel like everyone's lost hope of it, so
no one knows how to move forward. Maybe after the election,
so be a turn, like, Okay, something's been decided, maybe
we can like aim for something positive.

Speaker 2 (31:45):
I think we'll get there. You know, everybody talks about
this country as if it's the best days are gone.
That includes Trump. But part of that is the fear
sells better than anything else, so you sell the hell
out of fear. It's a lot easier to sell fear
than it is to convince people of your ideas. Both
sides do that, right, you know, Project twenty twenty five.
So Trump is elected, that's it. They're gonna lock up

(32:05):
your vaginas and that's you know, it's just it's stupid,
But the reality is that's that's what happens. It's just
easier to sell. That sucks, but it's true. I think
we'll get to a place where we'll find more common ground.
And by that I mean there's plenty of common ground
out there. I don't think people realize that, but I
think that the thing is and we've talked about it

(32:26):
all the time. You know, my show is for the
exhausted majority, and finding that common ground is not hard.
The problem is, and as I've traveled over the last
several days across the country, one of the things I've
noticed is people are wrapped up in their identity in

(32:47):
the world of politics, and those people tend to have
too much sway in what goes on online, in particular,
which is where people think everybody lives. And that's not true.
You can't make that your own, your only identity, right that.
That is not helpful and it is not healthy, because

(33:09):
then what happens is if somebody disagrees with your political take,
you take it personally, and you can't do that. Times
are different, people are different. Speaking of that, father and son,
gen X, me and a son talking, not me or
my son, but still rather interesting.

Speaker 24 (33:28):
Welcome to gen X talks and dad, how's my little
ray of sunshine today? I've been thinking, and I think
your generation of mind aren't really that different. Yeah, well,
I'm sure Grandpa used to feel the same about you
that you feel about us.

Speaker 17 (33:41):
Right, Yeah, I'm sure he scratched his head more than
once about me.

Speaker 3 (33:43):
So what oh wait, see we're the same.

Speaker 2 (33:46):
So why do you pick on us so much the same?

Speaker 27 (33:48):
Well, you didn't like it, okay, you didn't like it
when Grandpa did it to you, So why would you
do it to us?

Speaker 17 (33:51):
Because we're different. You know, at the end of the day,
Grandpa and I could still sit down and talk, and
later in life we could have a beer. We had
we had common ground, like loyalty to family and country.

Speaker 2 (34:00):
You guys, a nuestion. I think he's a little bit
right there. It goes back to what we were saying.
There is a lot of that younger generation that doesn't
feel that way about the country. Shame on you. Understand,
we're not perfect. No place is put yourself in that situation.
If you're looking for that perfect utopia, it doesn't exist.
And you know, and I talk to this about my
kids all the time. We talk about this, the baby

(34:22):
Boomers and the Greatest generation. While they we all thought
we knew better. When we were younger. We all thought
we were invincible. We all thought all those things. There
was plenty of common ground of which we were able
to have conversations about. I don't feel that with a
younger generation. I don't. I think a lot of people
feel that way. I think the gap between the younger generation, right,

(34:46):
the millennials and the Gen Z alpha those is so vast,
and the way that they look at the world is
so much different the way that we looked at the
world compared to say, the Baby Boomers, I'm Gen X,
or even the greatest generation. It was different, but not
so much different. So much common ground there.

Speaker 3 (35:08):
Well, my generation has common ground too with us.

Speaker 17 (35:10):
You think you have common ground with my generation. My
generation was happy to have a job of cold beer
and working on their car and a Saturday. You aren't
happy until you wake up and tear down some random
American tradition just because it's there. The only thing when
we got in common, son is a doctor we're going
to use to take my Buddhaut.

Speaker 2 (35:24):
You can leave now, Thanks for the vid Dad three two, three, five, three,
twenty four to twenty three at Chad Benson Show. That
is your Twitter, your Instagram, all of the other things
right here on the Chad Benson Show. He's great. By
the way, you can go there gen X. I think
it's gen X Talks. He's all over YouTube and whatnot.

(35:46):
Coming up in a second hour, a lot of stuff
to get you. More on the polls. What do they say,
what do they mean? I'll break it down for you.
Some comments about is tackle football and allowing your kid
to play that child abuse. A lot of you have
chimed in about that. We're going to talk a bit
about about that as well. It's more woke stuff and
craziness three two, three, five, three eight, twenty four, twenty
three at Chad Benson Show. It's your Twitter, your Instagram,

(36:09):
all of the other things. And by the way, if
you're miss any of the podcast, shame on you. You can
grab the podcast whoever podcasts are available, which is pretty
much everywhere. It is the Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 1 (36:24):
This is the Chad Benson Show, Independent Thoughts, Independent life,

(36:53):
This is Chad Benson.

Speaker 2 (36:55):
More and more comes out about the assassination attempts on
Donald Trump's life. I know the left is like, they
weren't really that bad. It's not a big deal. But
it is, and there's a reason why that both Democrats
and Republicans have put away their pettiness if you will,
for just a moment, and they're, hey, look at me.
Let me see if I get a SoundBite on the
television or get one of my you know, thirty seconds

(37:18):
here to go viral. The reality of this is it's
serious because we cannot have this stuff happening. This is
not who we are as a country. We can be
pissed and angry at each other, that's okay, right, you know,
I expect that we have differences. You know, It's what
makes us a great country is we have our differences
so we can share them. And sometimes people lose their
blanking mind. But Dick Blumenthal is worried about it because

(37:44):
he also understands the significance of the potential of what
if when it comes to what took place with Donald
Trump and the potential going forward. And this is just
on the Butler aspect of it. So you remember you got Butler, pa,
that's where Trump was shot. It was a pizza class.
It was not real. It was shut up, it was real.

(38:06):
This is him talking about the failure of the Secret Service,
and it was a failure.

Speaker 28 (38:13):
What we have here really is an accumulation of errors
that produced a perfect storm of stunning failure. And it
was perhaps no single cause, but eliminating any one of
them might have actually saved those individuals who were harmed
or one killed and the present from that injury. There

(38:36):
was no chain of command, no pinpointing of responsibility, which
I think is at the core of these failures. But
also there was a lack of resources, no operable radios,
no drone detection system, no counter surveillance unit, and so
I think the Secret Service certainly needs more resources. But

(38:57):
management failures are at the part of this.

Speaker 2 (39:01):
Failure, and that's huge management failure. We cannot have that
stuff will happen. It is a dangerous job. And I'm
not talking about the Secret Service. Go back forty six presidents.
We've had four of them killed, few assassination attempts along
the way. You can bet your bottom dollar that there

(39:21):
are people out there, most of them looney tunis who
aren't going to get anywhere near the president, thank god.
But every once in a while, something, no matter how
good things are, can happen. All that aside, they have failed,
and in a time of distrust, and we got plenty
of it. You've also got people out there who feel
like this is it. They're coming to get Trump. And

(39:44):
it's hard not to think that when you see what's
going on, the weaponization of many of the agencies, the
fact that you have had two attempts on his life,
and then you get this letter released this guy, and

(40:04):
you have all of these things that are going on,
and people start to wonder, is they're an inside job
and this is why you have to nip stuff in
the bud talked about it last hour. Why did this
letter come out? This looney dude. I don't use his
name because I don't want him to get any press.
There's a reason I don't use people's names, whether it's
a person who decides to shoot up a place or this,

(40:25):
because I don't want them to get any press. This guy, though,
sent a box of stuff off ammunition guns and you know,
a letters, and inside of it he apologized for not
killing Trump, and people like, why, I can't believe this.
We couldn't get the Covenant thing, but we got this
and it came out here why partially because somebody else
had already seen it. So the fear is This guy
could have copied it and he didn't give it to
the press, or somebody could have come and said, hey,

(40:46):
you know, we'll give you X amount of dollars. That's
one of the reasons this thing came out much quicker.
We've got nutjobs out there. We've got to do a
better job at it. Here's the one thing I know
about nutjobs. People inherently can't keep their gd mouse shut.
So there's always opportunities. Every once in a while you
will have somebody see the Vegas shooter. Nobody knows why

(41:06):
what the hell happened. Nobody has any idea to this day.
This guy had talked about this for a while. Why
wasn't he on the radar? We talked about the kid
who shot up to school a few weeks ago in Georgia.
Why wasn't he on the radar? Well, he was on
the radar, just wasn't done the way it should have been.
There are so many things that go into this, But
I'm telling you out there, if you want to know

(41:27):
why people feel like they're coming for Trump, it's because
they have been coming for Trump. Whether it's through the media,
whether it's through law fair or something like this, there
is a sense that they're coming for him. And when
you know, it's funny when democrats like I can't believe
people get behind this guy. Look at the stuff he faces.
And you've never once asked yourself, man, maybe there's something

(41:48):
to some of the things he said. No, you don't
ask any of those questions. You just think he's evil
and bad. Three two, three, five, three eight twenty four
three We at Chad Benson shows your Twitter tweet at
us text the program. We moved from there to this
and this may be the worst thing. Error filibuster, not

(42:10):
the filibuster, the elimination of said filibuster.

Speaker 29 (42:13):
I think we should eliminate the filibuster barrow and we
need and get us to the point where we had
fifty one votes would be what we need to actually
put back in law, the protections for reproductive freedom.

Speaker 2 (42:27):
That right there is the woman who'd like to be
president of the United States, who thinks all women care about,
by the way, is well, all they care about is choice,
which is not true. She wants to eliminate the filibuster.
That is a no go for me. The filibuster was
put in place to protect the minority, the people who

(42:50):
aren't in power. That's why the filibuster was put in place.
It is important. The thought of doing it is insane
and buying, saying, I mean absolutely beyond nuts. They asked yesterday,
Chucky Schumer, baby philabuster.

Speaker 1 (43:07):
Farm out.

Speaker 28 (43:11):
It's something ar Caucus will discuss in the next session
of Congress. Yes, Yes, it's something AR Caucus will discuss.

Speaker 17 (43:19):
Yes.

Speaker 2 (43:21):
So they kept asking him. They kep, hey, what about
what about the philibuster. You're gonna get rid of the philibuster,
We're going to talk about You're gonna get rid of
the philbuster. We're going to talk about it. You're gona
get rid of the film, but we're gonna talk about it.
It'll bite you in the ass if you do it will.
The one thing that has saved the filibuster from not
being destroyed right now is the fact that you had

(43:45):
two people in Congress. She had mansion and you had cinema,
and they said no way.

Speaker 27 (43:51):
Vice President Kamala Harrison is leaning into what's become a
defining issue for her campaign, aborshit, saying she wants to
abolish the Senate filibuster to restore reproductive rights. Arizona Senator
kirston Cinema and Independent posting to state the supremely obvious.
Eliminating the filibuster to codify Roe v. Wade also enables
a future Congress to ban all abortions nationwide.

Speaker 2 (44:14):
You know what happens if you get rid of the filibuster.
Crazy happens. Extreme happens. You go from one pendulum area
to the next. The pendulum swings one way and the
next That's what happens. Extremes will run everything. You'll get whiplash.
It was put there for a reason. The House a
little bit more emotional, right, just need a simple majority.

(44:38):
They put this in place for a reason. Hey, let's
slow things down. Let's take a look at everything. They
wanted all of the senators not to have a worry
of being elected every two years, right and always on
the campaign, to have some time to take a step
back and say, let's take a look at this. What
are the unintended consequences, What is the potential of harm
for other things? Let's not get into this thing very

(45:00):
quick way. I know people get frustrated. We want this
thing to be I get it, I get it. But
if you were to do this, what would happen is simple.
The extremes would rule in the Senate, and you go
from one area to another.

Speaker 3 (45:18):
She is right.

Speaker 2 (45:19):
We have done this once before. And here's the thing
that the ruling party never gets. At some point in time,
you won't be in power. Harry Reid got rid of
the filibuster for judges, Chuck Schumer said, and I quote,
we will rude the day because he understood what was

(45:41):
going to happen. At some point in time, you are
no longer the people in power, and the people in
power will be the other side, and the other side
then will decide, Hey, what's good enough for you guys,
it's good enough for us. Because everybody always thinks, well,
if we get rid of the philibuster, we're only gonna
do it this once, but we're not gonna lew anybody
else to do it. You don't get it.

Speaker 11 (45:59):
Do that.

Speaker 2 (46:00):
You don't get to do that.

Speaker 30 (46:02):
Now that she has said that she would gut the
Senate filibuster rules in order to pass a measure to
preserve abortion rights, Mansion tells us this morning that he
will not endorse Harris for president. He is one of
the staunchest supporters of the filibuster and the Senate. Mintion
argue that it is essential to forcing biparson consensus and

(46:25):
compromise in the Senate. Isn't the minority of Democrats in
particular who are pushing to gut this altogether because it
would lower the threshold for advancing legislation from sixty votes
to fifty one if Kamala Harris had her way.

Speaker 2 (46:39):
If she had her way, Mansion, no, why he's independent.
He understands we need both parties to have a say
in something, and we need it to be quick and emotional.
We need to be thought about, pushed out there in
the right way where everybody has to say. And it's
got to be that sixty threshold because if not, you're
going to have emotions running the day, and extremes will

(47:01):
control everything, and we'll go from one area to another,
and then you're gonna get whiplash and one minute you're
gonna have abortion everywhere on demand, and the next minute
there's gonna be no abortion whatsoever. And then people geta
thrown a fit. And then the next minute of you
pick any issue that is controversial and you're gonna have

(47:22):
over there, over there, over there. It's gonna like watching
a tennis match. You ever watch a tennis match, Just
watch the crowd. They look at this direction over the right,
then they look the left. They looked the right, then
it looks the left. Is that we're gonna get possible.

Speaker 30 (47:34):
But just moments ago, Manchin told our colleague Ted Barrett.
He said, he said, quote, shame on her, Branda Harris.
He says that she knows the filibuster is the holy
grill of democracy. And Manchon went on to say it's
the only thing that keeps us talking and working together.
If she gets rid of that, then this would be
the house on steroid.

Speaker 2 (47:56):
Who thus on steroids. We don't want that. Three two, five, three, eight,
twenty four, twenty three at Chad Benson Show, that's your Twitter,
your Instagram, all of the other thing. Several of you
chimed in about, you know, hey, maybe fifteen is a
good time for tackle football, because we talked a bit
about that earlier the book out where a professor alleges said, hey,

(48:19):
if you guys let your kids play tackle football at eight,
nine and ten, that's child abuse. Let me know what

Speaker 13 (49:48):
You're listening to the Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 31 (49:50):
Helene is expected to rapidly intensify into a Category three
storm before making landfall.

Speaker 32 (49:57):
I've seen what those storms can do, and you know,
we've been lucky for so long, so you just never know.

Speaker 31 (50:01):
Helene is projected to hit near the Big Bend area
of Florida tomorrow, packing one hundred and fifteen mile per
hour winds, up to a foot of rain and up
to fifteen feet of storm surge.

Speaker 2 (50:13):
Nature will mess you up. We're gonna have a little
special addition to that coming up later in the hour.
But you build in an area where there is hurricanes,
this is what happens. I would like to still have
a home here when this is over, but.

Speaker 14 (50:33):
There's no way for me to know, and there's not
much reason for me to worry.

Speaker 2 (50:42):
You know, because they're going to talk about this, well,
this is what happens to climate change. We're supposed to
have this massive storm surges for the last several weeks.
It just never materialized. But what's going to happen here
is they'll talk about, see how much more dangerous these
things are than ever before. They're talking money, they're not
talking the damage when it comes to loss of lives

(51:04):
things of that nature. Why is that, Well, if you
go back fifty years, nobody lived on the beach. There
are very few homes, so when a massive hurricane came through,
nobody talked about it the way they do now. But
because you're going to have to rebuild over and over
and over again, it is the cost of living there.
And I do wonder when people are going to start

(51:25):
to say, look, you're going to have to build your
home in a much different way, or build it somewhere else,
because we're no longer going to be able to afford
to do this. You're seeing this in California right now
with wildfires. If you put your house in an area
where there's plenty of wildfires, you know the risk of
what might happen. It's not about the climate change, it's
about the cost of business. That's the reality of it.

Speaker 31 (51:47):
This comes and goes and I just deal with it.

Speaker 17 (51:50):
So this time I think it's going to be a
real fast moving so hopefully, hopefully I have a home
to come back to.

Speaker 2 (51:59):
And that's the big thing. Hopefully have a home to
come back to. And can we reinforce these things? Absolutely?
Can we do? Can we build homes in certain ways? Yes?
But so much of what they talk about when this
climate change is the cost. Look how much more dangerous
it is. They're not talking about danger there, talking about
the cost the damage done dollar wise three two, three, five,

(52:20):
three eight, twenty four, twenty three at Chad Benson shows
your Twitter tweet at as text the program right here
on the Chad Benson Show. Nature is what nature is,
and it'll do what nature does. But you can do
certain things to try to get yourself away from certain
parts of nature or reinforce it's getting expensive out there.

(52:42):
And then includes insurance and I'll get pushed back on this,
I know I will, Well, Chad, that's not very nice. No,
it's it's again, it's the cost of business in life.
We want these insurance companies to pay for everything. And

(53:03):
knowing full well that you've put yourself in a path
where you know, it's like putting your car on a
train track. Now that train track is rarely, if ever used,
but there's a chance it's going to be used this
year or next year, in this next several years. And
then when your car gets hit, you go, okay, cool,

(53:25):
look replace my car. They said, fine, and then you
go and do it again. Yeah. I see where you're going.
And it's the same thing we're seeing with the wildfires.

Speaker 26 (53:35):
Right.

Speaker 2 (53:36):
These houses are built in areas where they're not just
prone to wildfires. It's not an if but when scenario.
And then you throw on the costs and doing business
in certain places Florida is a little bit cheaper than say,
I don't know, California, but it's frustrating for everybody. But

(53:59):
we know now, like if there was never any hurricanes
and out of nowhere cane one, well that's what the
emergency for. But if you know there's one coming at
least two three, four times a year, recognize that three two, three, five,
three eight, twenty four to twenty three. At Chad Benson
Show is your Twitter tweet at US text the program.
It is the Chad Benson shryl.

Speaker 1 (54:18):
Son, Chad Benson Shoe, independent Thoughts, Independent Life.

Speaker 13 (54:42):
This is Chad Benson.

Speaker 33 (54:44):
Forty five days to bring joy back to our politics.
Forty five days just say we are not satisfied with
putting cracks in the glass ceiling. We're pushing President Harris
through the glass to the It's all on the line
forty five days, not just for the next four years,
but for the next forty years. Forty five days to

(55:06):
bring joy back to our politic.

Speaker 2 (55:08):
That's Tim Walls. He's going to be debating jad Vans.
I think he's jad Vance is going to eat him alive. Look, Tim,
you know it's funny. He's got this positive view. It's like, hey,
he's a communist with with kindness, it's it's Chad. Why
would you say that he's a big believer in the party.
If you will, I mean, go look all of the

(55:30):
stuff that he has done in the past, praising China,
teaching his kids in school about China and there. It's
there's no doubt that he is a socialist. He's not
the chairman mal but likes the system. How's that. I'm
not very hyper bullock. I know would probably pay better
if I was. But I give you guys the truth.

(55:53):
But when I think it comes to an actual debate
and argument, the aw shucks guy is going to be
left in awe shucks, because I think Jade Vance is
gonna eat him alive. That being said, does it really matter.
I don't know if it matters that much. At this
moment in time. It's just about the two. It's about
Harris and it's about Trump and over the next you know.

(56:16):
Now it's forty two days or whatever. Can you deliver
the things that you need to deliver to the people
that you need to deliver it to in those seven states?
We'll see. But Monday Tuesday is gonna be very interesting
because I just think that jad Vance is a whole
nother level when it comes to being on stage defining

(56:37):
the issues in a way that I think Americans go, huh.
I think it's he is. You know, Ted cruz Is
always knew he was the smartest guy in the room,
and that was always Ted's problem. He knew he was
the smartest, and he wanted to show the world he
was the smartest. Jad understands that he is really smart.
You may not agree with his politics, but he is,

(57:00):
and he doesn't go out there to prove his smartness.
It happens in a much more organic and natural way
where he's not looking to show off. And I think
on Tuesday, he's gonna show. Hey, look, this is what
we're about. This is what you're about. We'll see three
two three, five, three eight, twenty four, twenty three at
She had Benson Show's your Twitter tweet at a text
to program speaking of craziness smartest elections. This is a

(57:25):
Pittsburgh mother who is not thrilled by her kid being told, Hey,
you gotta go vote, register who you gonna vote for?
What are you gonna do? What are you gonna do?
What are you gonna do? What are you gona do?
You should go vote, should vote for Herris. She could
vote for Herris, she could for her hair bae. Bye.
But your school's telling you.

Speaker 34 (57:37):
What Today, My seventeen year old daughter was pulled at
a class and was told she needed.

Speaker 35 (57:42):
To register to vote.

Speaker 34 (57:44):
Not only was she told how.

Speaker 6 (57:46):
To register, she was told who.

Speaker 34 (57:50):
She should vote for. Because lack of would y'all pull
my daughter at a class telling her you to vote for?
I am her mother and I have yet to have
this conversation with her about the upcoming election. I have
not said any consent forms telling y'all that my daughter
can register to vote at school?

Speaker 2 (58:11):
Yeah, that's crazy, And look we want to get kids
involved in that. Totally understandable. You're a school you should
remain neutral. That should be so many agencies, at least
the IRS is endorsing, you know, Harris. Agencies should absolutely
remain neutral. Can we all agree with that, schools, you
should remain neutral. Therein lies your problem.

Speaker 34 (58:33):
So that's what she told me. These are her words.
That she said it was a mandatoria, no, ma'am, and
that you projected your fears and insecurities on her, telling
her if Donald Trump was elected, black people would be doomed.

Speaker 36 (58:46):
Oh no, ma'am.

Speaker 2 (58:47):
No, ma'am.

Speaker 10 (58:47):
I am a minority inspector, and you know, as a
minority inspector, you never ever ever discuss politics or your
beliefs or anything.

Speaker 34 (58:57):
So can we call my daughter down here, because at
this point you're making it like she's a complete lamb.

Speaker 2 (59:03):
No, ma'am, No, ma'am, we would never do that. You
just told her that all black people will be ruined,
right like, oh, Chad, they would never say. You didn't
realize I'm going to go back aways right, I was
getting the way back machine. This is somebody from two
thousand and twenty talking about Trump and talking about to
her kid about Trump. And it's funny that it's making

(59:25):
the rounds again. But I think it's very interesting, especially
in a situation like this where this information of insanity lives.

Speaker 32 (59:32):
Four years ago, I woke up my son and he
said to me, who won the election? And I told
him that Trump won the election. He was eight years
old and he said, but Mom, he hates brown and
black people. What are we going to do? And I said,
I don't know, I don't know. I took him to school.
There were people crying in the hallways, panicked. The school
had a huge migrant population and a huge LATINX population.

(59:53):
People were worried that they were going to get deported.
They had to bring counselors in.

Speaker 2 (59:57):
LATINX sit down with only white people would come up to.
I think that's so stupid. But it's funny because you
listen to that mom in Pittsburgh, right, and what did
she say? You're telling my daughter and this lady, by
the way, is black, that basically black people, brown people
are screwed. You go back a few years and you've
got a mom going, oh, kids are crying in the hall.
They're going to throw everybody out. It is the narrative

(01:00:18):
is so hilarious. Again, brand somebody a races say they're
racist all the time. Even though your policies and the
thought that you have towards people of color is as racist,
more racist than anything you could accuse Trump up, it
still doesn't matter. Continue, miss lady from Pittsburgh.

Speaker 34 (01:00:34):
Yeah, but I could have told my daughter to register
her to vote and did not ask for y'all to
register my daughter to vote. I have not even spoke
to her about the election yet. And I am not
a hair supporter. I am a Trump supporter. Yes, So
for you to tell her anything, and it's like, now
you're saying she's lying, So now I want her to
come down here.

Speaker 9 (01:00:52):
Listen.

Speaker 10 (01:00:53):
I'm not saying your daughter's line. What I'm saying is
is that I did call her into my office. I
did raise to her to vote. We did have a
conversation about it. She did ask me about Trump, she
did ask me about hers. So we started a conversation
about you know, what's going on.

Speaker 2 (01:01:11):
So now you calling my daughter alive that accent. I
can't do that accent, that mid Atlantic accent. It's a
tough accent to do. But you listen to that so
as my daughter. Whether you know your daughter's not lying.
But then we had this conversation again certain place, certain
time with kids, and as you can tell the mom
again a Trump supporter, Yeah, did you tell.

Speaker 34 (01:01:27):
Her about the border being unsecure? So did you tell
her about all the illegal criminals that's in this country
right now?

Speaker 10 (01:01:34):
We did talk about the border policies and all of that.
We did have a conversation.

Speaker 34 (01:01:39):
That's why I don't know why the conversation was head
with consent forms that I said said I was okay
with my daughter being registered to vote in school. She's
still seventeen years old. I could have took her as
her mother, and I could have explained to her what
to do to look up both policies without me telling
her anything. This is just not right.

Speaker 2 (01:02:02):
You can listen to the official there understand the officials
busted understands that that was not the thing to do,
and really understands I shouldn't call her daughter a liar.
I got a pissed off mom, and I didn't lie.
I you know, the mom said, look, I'm gonna give
her both sides of the policies and let her decide
that's a good thing. Will that happen. Let's be real.
I mean, your kids are gonna come to You're gonna

(01:02:23):
give the growing up in your world, and most of
the times kids are going to push back. Anyways, it's
not your place again. You should talk about voting one percent,
talk about registering to vote. Absolutely. But this goes back
to schools. Believe, we don't have to tell you anything.
When it comes to your kids.

Speaker 34 (01:02:39):
You are fact telling her anything that you say. You
didn't say black people be done, she's saying you said it.
I'm gonna believe my daughter because she would not lax
in me about something like this. I'm taking my daughter
out of the school. She do not feel comfortable. I'm
just completely pissed off right now.

Speaker 2 (01:02:55):
Every right to be and talk about voting one hundred
percent about the importance of voting should be neutral though,
but we're not anymore. And everybody and everywhere has to
have a stand. Schools, though you know where they're going
to go. They're left. The unions control many of these things,
and they're going to push a narrative. And on the
right side, they've got their opportunities out there as well.
But when it comes to the young kids, airs no

(01:03:17):
doubt where schools stand. And I would be pissed too.
And you wonder why people are deciding to leave public
school en mass in ways that we have not seen
in so long. There are so many reasons out there
that Mom was pissed. Every right to be pissed, every
right to be pissed. Three two, three, five, three eight,
twenty four to twenty three at Chad Benson Show, is
your Twitter goat? A little nature will mess you up?

(01:03:39):
Coming up in a second, but first Raycon past yearbuts around.
I wear my Raycons all the time. I like to
work out, you guys know, and in doing so sometimes
when I'd wear old earbuds, it was a nightmare. Take
a swing with my golf club, run around kicking the ball,
whatever it was, they would fall out, be annoying. Not
with my every days. They are incredible. These earbuds are amazing.

(01:04:02):
The fit second to none, the feel second to none.
They're incredible. One of the things that they've added to
this is well, there's several things. First of all, multi
connectivity boom. Top of that, you've got fast charging, active
noise cancelation as well as weather and sweat resistant, eight
hours of talk time, thirty two hours of battery life
and a price that will not break the bank. I

(01:04:24):
am a person who spends so much time in the
world of audio, and I will tell you this right now.
I swear by these if you love audio like I do,
if you want earbuds that are absolutely the best around
the everyday earbuds will not break the bank. They start
well under what anything else out there costs, and you
are going to be absolutely loving these right now. Fifteen

Speaker 13 (01:05:16):
The chat Benson shows that portion.

Speaker 2 (01:05:18):
Of the program where we have a little fun and
talk about nature. Nature weirdless you because it will bees dangerous,
absolutely angry, coming to get you. Can't stop them.

Speaker 37 (01:05:42):
Husband and wife are hospitalized after they were attacked by a.

Speaker 8 (01:05:45):
Swarm of bees.

Speaker 37 (01:05:47):
The couple had been working in their yard when thousands
of bees living in a tree in their front yard
went after them. A woman who saw the man's face
covered with bees and called nine one one said it was.

Speaker 13 (01:06:01):
It's like the bees came and just we're all on him,
all the more on him.

Speaker 37 (01:06:07):
Several other people in the neighborhood were all so stung.
Police contacted a company with bee keeping experience to clear
that swarm. They told us the hive is about four
feet inside the tree. The team is now vacuuming up
the bees and putting them in a box for later release.

Speaker 2 (01:06:25):
Vacuuming up the bees, and they're coming for you. Now,
let's just say you're like chat, I don't live anywhere
near bees, but I do live on the ocean. Well,
let's just say you're near San Diego, La Joya area
and you decide to yourselfself, I need to go swimming.
Now you understand there are sharks out there. We get this.
We talk about it all the time. Sharks. Sharks can
mess you up. You go inside their home, there's a

(01:06:47):
chance they may bite you. It's not because they want to.
It's not because they're a hundred they have no thumbs,
they have no arms. They're just getting a feel of
who you are. But let's just say, for the sake
of this conversation, it's not a shark or a dolphin,
but a pin a bed.

Speaker 36 (01:07:06):
A sixty one year old man, says he comes here
to Mission Beach nearly every day for a swim. He
just swim through a booey over here, and on Friday
night he was attacked by a sea lion. Now he's
out of the hospital and sharing with us what happened.

Speaker 2 (01:07:19):
I was out by that buoy, right out there.

Speaker 36 (01:07:21):
Matt Baby was halfway done with his daily ocean swim
when he felt more than just a.

Speaker 38 (01:07:26):
Tug, and I feel this bite on my leg. It
didn't hurt much, but it was like a pull. Then
I punched it, punched the animal, thinking it was a shark.

Speaker 2 (01:07:39):
Thought it was a shark, right, it's the first place
you go in the water. You're like, it's got to
be a shark. It's got to be a shark. But
then you realize, oh my god, it's not a shark.

Speaker 16 (01:07:46):
It's not it's spinna.

Speaker 36 (01:07:46):
Bed Baby quickly realized this wasn't a shark or one
of the friendlier sea lions he'd seen on dozens of occasions.

Speaker 2 (01:07:54):
This was the meanest sea lion.

Speaker 36 (01:07:56):
I've ever seen these bandages. US isn't screen all the
aftermath of an ocean fight.

Speaker 2 (01:08:02):
And I have a massive tooth bite.

Speaker 36 (01:08:05):
It's one that he thinks lasted about five minutes before
he was rescued by a Boogie border in lifeguards and
ended up in a hospital room.

Speaker 38 (01:08:13):
It got me with its claws several times, and I
was able to hit back with my fins, which I
fortunately was wearing.

Speaker 2 (01:08:21):
Oh there was the thing, right, So you're getting attacked
by something and this is a five minute attack like
shark's bite. They're like, oh my god, I'm so sorry.
But this thing's like, you know what, maybe I want
to date you. I don't know, because you got fins on,
I have fins. Maybe there's you know, I got little
pops around. You have no idea why this that maybe

(01:08:42):
is gonna look ca.

Speaker 36 (01:08:43):
This is different, he says, than what we often see
up the coast at La Joya Cove where people get
too close and agitate the sea lions. Baby was just
swimming and he has no idea why it came at him.

Speaker 38 (01:08:55):
This animal approached me for no reason at all that
I can just say. There was no sign of a
pauper other sea lions. It was just a random attack.

Speaker 36 (01:09:05):
Now he's hoping he can heal quickly and when he
gets back in the water he can avoid this sea lion.

Speaker 38 (01:09:12):
Yes, I'm just worried about that one sea lion. I
would recognize that sea lion in a lineup?

Speaker 2 (01:09:18):
Would you? Would you recognize it in a lineup? Now
we go from the ocean. So we've had a tree
full of bees to the ocean with the deadly pinnipets,
seals and sea lions. Now we head over to a
house and a.

Speaker 39 (01:09:36):
Bear, a three hundred and fifty pound black bear under
a house in Sierra Madre.

Speaker 13 (01:09:42):
I wasn't too concerned. I figured he'd eventually go away.
If it was a grizzly bear, I'd pack and go.

Speaker 39 (01:09:47):
For several weeks. The black bear, they call him Junior,
has been living in this crawl space under a house
on Sunnyside Avenue. I can tell you the homeowner. Surprisingly,
they're okay with the bear being there.

Speaker 8 (01:09:58):
We have bears all over and Seer Madre, I mean everywhere,
but they never hurt anybody. Sometimes they'll break into a
house to get food.

Speaker 39 (01:10:06):
But fish and wildlife. Tonight strategizing on how to get
the bear out.

Speaker 2 (01:10:11):
Honey, No, sometimes they break in the house. Goldilocks again.
Nature will mess you up. Nature will come to your house.
Nature will live underneath your house.

Speaker 39 (01:10:20):
It happened just last week. And just stop, Sierra Madre Kenya.
That bear broke into a house and made a mess
in the kitchen.

Speaker 22 (01:10:27):
Get out of here.

Speaker 34 (01:10:29):
Oh my gosh, the bear broke in our house.

Speaker 39 (01:10:33):
But Junior, who lives just beside the porch steps, hasn't
really been bothering anyone.

Speaker 8 (01:10:39):
Junior is a very old bear. He's about three hundred
to four hundred pounds, so he's really big, but totally harmless.

Speaker 2 (01:10:48):
Said the person who's never actually had to confront Junior
face to face. He's totally fine, not gonna hurt you.
He's an old bear. Let me tell you something. What
happens to animals who are older When food becomes scarce
and there is issues out there with that, the animals
they normally catch that they can't catch anymore, they turn

(01:11:08):
themselves to things like humans. Now I'm not saying Junior
is going to do that, but the reason is is
because we're gangly and silly and we don't move very fast,
it's easier for them to catch us. Not saying Junior
is going to do that. I'm just pointing out the possibility.

Speaker 8 (01:11:22):
The police wanted to shoot pepper balls under there to
scare him out, and I said no, no, no, no,
no no no.

Speaker 39 (01:11:28):
Then Fish and Wildlife took over and they went into
the space to get a good look at the bear.

Speaker 8 (01:11:34):
He's been under there, and the bear has snarled and
growled ahead.

Speaker 18 (01:11:37):
You know.

Speaker 39 (01:11:38):
Fish and Wildlife has set up a trail cam to
watch the bear come and go, and they hope to
tranquilize him next time he comes out of the crawl space.

Speaker 40 (01:11:46):
The bear leave naturally on its own without intervention. And
then once we confirm that the bear is left with
our remote camera, we'll work with the homeowner to get
that space boarded up.

Speaker 39 (01:11:57):
But for now, the nestor friendly says, let the bear.

Speaker 8 (01:12:00):
We don't want to hurt him in any way.

Speaker 2 (01:12:02):
No nobody wants to hurt the bear. I like how
the first thing they want to do is just drug
the bear. That's what it is. Man America's about drugs
three two, three, five, three eight, twenty four, twenty three
At Chad Benson Show, It's your Twitter, your Instagram, all
of the other things right here in the Chad Benson Show.
Coming up, third hour, Little Watch, trending, some more woke stuff,

(01:12:23):
and polls, polls, polls, and more polls. We're going to
pull you out on all of this stuff. There's plenty
of polls out there. What to believe, what not to believe?
What is real? What is not real? What about these
new AI models? These are things we never had before
when it came to the presidential elections, or any elections
for that matter. So we're pretty pumped about some of

(01:12:46):
these AI models that are out there. How serious should
we take some of these comparatively to some of the
other models when it comes to polling. So much stuff
to get to. If you miss any show, make sure
you had the podcast. It is the Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 1 (01:13:03):
This is the Chad Benson Show, Independent Thoughts, independent.

Speaker 13 (01:13:31):
Life, This is Chad Benson.

Speaker 2 (01:13:34):
It is the economy, stupid. We're still a checkbook voting country.
The economy is the one thing we all participate in.
You could say I don't participate in it. I'm not
part of the capitalistic society. You are. Everybody is. Everybody
participates in the economy in some way, shape or form.

(01:13:55):
You could be a person on the side of the
road holding up a sign saying you need something. Give
you a dollar, give you something any spare change. That
spare change came some from somebody who participated in the economy.
You're going to take that money and spend it on something.
It's about the economy. Stupid that being said yesterday. The

(01:14:16):
indicator that matters more to me than all the other
wacky stuff out there, right, all the other crazy stuff.
Consumer confidence? How do you feel? Are you confident? Are
you confident in what is going on? It's a big
deal because you and I are not only voters, we're consumers.

(01:14:40):
And if we feel good about the economy, and guess what,
we feel good about the people in power. If we
don't feel good about the economy, we want somebody to blame.
Even if it's not all their fault, or if it
isn't any of their fault, it doesn't matter. We want
someone to blame.

Speaker 10 (01:14:58):
We do.

Speaker 2 (01:14:59):
Well, let's take a listen.

Speaker 41 (01:15:01):
Yeah, we are looking at some big misses here on
consumer confidence. We're expecting a headline number to be around
one oh four ninety eight point seven ninety eight point seven.

Speaker 13 (01:15:11):
That is the weakest.

Speaker 41 (01:15:13):
Going back to July of twenty two, July of twenty
two when it was ninety five point three. So these
are definitely weaker than expected numbers.

Speaker 2 (01:15:23):
You think, let's take a look at this, by the way,
because they break it down in different ways, but the
biggest fall comes between ages thirty five and fifty four
earning less than fifty thousand dollars. Consumers assessment of current
business conditions turn negative. Well, the views of the current
labor market situation soften. What Yeah, they softened. People aren't

(01:15:49):
feeling confident, they're not. And Chris Coons, who is out
there being a currocuit doing what he can for you know,
Harrison Walls, you know, he's like, hey, you guys are
misremembering what it was like all those years ago.

Speaker 42 (01:16:04):
It is narrowing the gap between Harrison Trump on who
do you believe will chart a better economic future for us?

Speaker 2 (01:16:09):
Has narrowed quite a bit by half.

Speaker 42 (01:16:11):
Part of it is that Americans, when you ask the
question are you better off today than you were four
years ago? Many Americans misremembered just how bad the economy
was four years ago and how strong our economic recovery
from the pandemic has been.

Speaker 2 (01:16:26):
Let's go back four years ago, once in a lifetime
massive pandemic. The global economy took up. Okay, and we
recognize that pre pandemic is the thing they don't want
you to remember. What was it like pre pandemic because

(01:16:47):
the pandemic through, you know, a monkey range into everything.
What was it like pre pandemic? You remember the likes
of Bill Maher saying, hey, the only reason to probably
the only way we're going to ever get rid of
Trump is if there's a recession, right, And he cheered
for a recession because he understood the economy was too good,

(01:17:09):
and then the pandemic came and it changed everything. Let's
be real.

Speaker 42 (01:17:13):
Next year, the biggest fight's going to be over taxes.
Lots of folks don't remember the details of the very
complex a TCJA or tax cut and Jobs ACKed fight
of twenty seventeen. A lot of those provisions expire next
year early next year. Congress and the President are going
to have to roll up our sleeves, sit down and
hammer out what's it going to look like for the
next five years. What are we going to do in
terms of spending through the tax code.

Speaker 2 (01:17:34):
What incentives will there be.

Speaker 42 (01:17:36):
Donald Trump is promising he's going to impose a twenty
percent tariff. That's a tax on every important product.

Speaker 2 (01:17:43):
Go back to too, that's a national sales team to
go back. Now, I'm going to say something. I'm not
thrilled by the tariffs. I think they're ridiculous, And to
be honest with you, it's one of the things that
pisses me off about Trump, the thought of terrans. And
I understand what he's trying to do. He's trying to
make it so I'm going to bring back manufacturing, I'm
going to bring back jobs. I'm going to bring back

(01:18:05):
all of these things in this country. Here is the
issue with that. We decided a long time ago we
are going to be a consumer based economy, and in
being a consumer based economy, we wanted stuff stocked deep
and sold cheap. That's what we wanted. So globally we've

(01:18:26):
become a nation where, yes, we export great ideas, we
create amazing things, but we also export jobs because we
want all of those amazing things and ideas, but we
want them cheap. And part of that is on us

(01:18:46):
as consumers. If we're willing to spend more, then that
might change. But when you're worried about the economy and
you're worried about the price of stuff, as king people
to spend more, it's probably not a winner. It's just
not what about facts and data? I like those things,
So do you Let's talk about that richer under Biden

(01:19:10):
and Harris or Trump.

Speaker 43 (01:19:12):
We also have the thing here Charles called the common
Man CPI, which I got just telling you. I got
very frustrated when economists they exclude energy, food, and shelter,
and then they call it core and I'm like, well,
you know, eating and staying warns.

Speaker 2 (01:19:26):
Pretty core to me.

Speaker 36 (01:19:28):
CO.

Speaker 40 (01:19:28):
Yeah, you know, I don't know.

Speaker 43 (01:19:29):
So we said, let's go the other way. Let's just
include food, energy, shelter, children's clothing, utilities, and insurance.

Speaker 2 (01:19:37):
Okay, so the things about it. We always joke about
the CPI, and you know, we talked to her Aboud
zach Abraham, chief investment Officer bullwork all the time about
how they formulate this ridiculousness. So like, all right, let's
take out everything that makes up the most important part
of what you're spending on, and then we'll add in
stuff that is ridiculous and then we'll decide, and every

(01:19:59):
admitted has done it, and they'll continue to do whatever
is going to give them the best sound. Let's understand that.
But you've got to be honest with what we're doing here,
which is playing with the numbers to try to make
it fit a certain narrative. That being said, where did
wealth go? Who made more money comparatively who made less money?

(01:20:27):
And this is with inflation and everything calculated in.

Speaker 43 (01:20:30):
What this is showing you is that people's wages outpaced
inflation both on a CPI versus a comment and both
the command CPI during the Trump years. People's prices have
exceeded their wages during the Biden Harris years. So people
got richer during the Trump years and they got poor.

(01:20:50):
Their standard of lioding has deteriorated, especially for those who
are very focused on just the essentials, right, people that
can't afford, ordinary Americans trying to make it and make
it day to day.

Speaker 2 (01:21:01):
There you go. Since that's simple. So when people say
we look back on yesteryear with this fond memory, and
they'll say, remember where we were four years ago. Four
years ago, we were in the really the early stages
of a pandemic, the world had shut down. So that

(01:21:28):
is not every president, right, that is not so not
every president goes through that. That is a once in
a lifetime situation. So to say that, you know, because
they argue that, well, that would never we would never
have come back if Trump wasn't off. That's ridiculous. That
is absolutely ridiculous. And by the way, I continue to
say this, we need to give ourselves more credit as consumers,

(01:21:52):
as producers, because all too often the government wants to
make it about them, when in reality it's about us.
Same thing when it goes through democracy and everything else,
it is about us. We as a nation drive this country,
not our leaders. They're spokesholes. There are people we put
in place to do a job, and in many cases

(01:22:15):
they do a great job at that, but that's who
they are. When it comes to the everyday running of
this country. It is about us, and we often forget
that because we turn politics into something personal and we
allow these people to become at times some sort of demigods,
which cannot happen. It can't. But we're going to vote.

(01:22:42):
We're going to vote, So understand that we're voting, and
we're going to pick one of these two. I mean,
it's you know, maybe you're frustrated. Look I look at this,
and here's the thing with somebody like Trump. You guys
know I feel about him. He makes everything harder than
it should be. And I get that he wants to
fight back, and that's one of the reasons he was

(01:23:04):
so endearing to so many people. But making things harder
than you should be is frustrating to a lot of
other people out there, And is the one thing I
always explain to people who love Trump is stop thinking
about it from your point of view. Think about it
from the person who hasn't made up their mind. Think

(01:23:27):
about it in that situation. Because he's got you. The
question is how does he get that other person that
he needs? What does he have to do. It's about
expanding the tent. It's about growing this and getting you
over the hump. The numbers are the numbers, and the

(01:23:49):
numbers look like this. Seven states really maybe just five
at this point in time, that are going to decide
this election. Think about that for a second. Two hundred
and fifty thousand. Maybe at one time when this thing
really got going, it was maybe a million people. Now

(01:24:11):
we're at the point where We're looking at two hundred
and fifty thousand people over five or six states that
will decide where this goes. How do you get those people?
Don't think about it in your mind because I'm on
board with him, and I think about It's like that
person who isn't on board isn't fully sold. How do

(01:24:35):
you get them? That is truly the billion dollar question

(01:29:04):
It is the Chad Benson Show. People not thrilled by
Jarah and his not so exciting way that he's handling
the cowboys. A lot of people angry about that guy
standing out front of the stadium saying fire the GM.

(01:29:24):
He is the owner and the GM and the president,
and I'm thinking no, coming up a lot of stuff
to get to some woke stuff is well woke stuff.
Some crazy stuff going on out there. I just want
to point that out. Of course, we've got more on
the election forty one days ish and some change away
from actual election day, But the reality is we're voting

(01:29:45):
now in several key places, and you know, it really
depends on the polling. It's hard to tell. Here's the
thing I've explained to people over and over again. Buyers
are liars when they wonder why Trump's polling is so
much different than everything else. First of all, you've gotten
to the point now where most Trump supporters do not

(01:30:08):
trust anybody who is calling them when it comes to
poland they don't. They don't trust you, so they're not
going to tell you the things that you are hoping
to hear, which is the truth. So in many cases,
completely underrepresented because of the distrust factor they have. So

(01:30:29):
it's very interesting to see the way that they handle
this because I don't know which way is up when
it comes to polling at this point in time. I'm
looking more at AI models than anything else because I
think it's going to give you a better representation of
that rather than traditional polling. Three two, three, five, three eight,
twenty four to twenty three at Chad Benson Show's your
Twitter tweetedts, text the show if you're missing the show,

(01:30:51):
shame got the podcast.

Speaker 44 (01:30:53):
Chad Benson Show, Sun, Chad Benson, Joe.

Speaker 1 (01:31:18):
Independent Thoughts, Independent Life. This is Chad Benson.

Speaker 45 (01:31:23):
Gamala, she destroyed San Francisco and then destroyed the whole state.
Reckless migration policy can destroy everything in its way, just
like we've seen in London and Paris and Minneapolis. If
Kamala Harris wins this election, she will flood Pennsylvania cities
and towns with illegal migrants from all over the world,
and Pennsylvania will never.

Speaker 8 (01:31:44):
Be the same.

Speaker 45 (01:31:45):
You will never be the same. When I'm president, all
migrant flights to Pennsylvania will stop immediately, not only to Pennsylvania, everywhere.

Speaker 2 (01:31:58):
They're all stopping. It's going to happen, stop. It's just
what people want. Immigration, along with the economy, massive issues.
Abortion a big issue as well, but a lot of
times abortion is a big issue in places that Commo
has already got. Immigration is a serious issue. Illegal immigration,

(01:32:21):
the abuse of our system is a serious issue. And
you know jd Vance last week I heard him talking
about this and he did something that I think more
people need to understand. When we're talking about this, be
mad at the federal government. Be mad at your local

(01:32:44):
government that has allowed certain things because maybe they're hoping
for dollars. Let's not forget there's always an opportunity to
grab dollars, or the fact that a factory worker, I
mean a factory owners like, hey, we need some people,
feel free to let them be busting here. Be mad
at those people, the people that have come here that
see this opportunity. Understandable that people get upset, but the

(01:33:09):
blame goes mostly to the federal government for allowing this
abuse to happen. We need to have a system where
people can come here. We need to have a system
that makes it easier at times for them to get here,
a system where they can come here and work and
they can do it legally. But the abuse of our

(01:33:30):
asylum system is not it. And then what happens is
you get angry, pissed off people who are asking questions
about what the hell's going on in my neighborhood, what
the hell's going on in my town and in my state.

Speaker 46 (01:33:45):
I just read an article that said they just built
sixty new apartment complexes in Maine for migrants, for free housing,
free housing bro for migrants in areas where there are
already housing crisis, where people cannot find housing, like apartments
in affordable housing. So the people who already live here

(01:34:05):
are already struggling to find apartments. And then they're like,
let's build sixty new apartment complexes just for the migrants.

Speaker 36 (01:34:12):
And it'll be free.

Speaker 46 (01:34:13):
Please make it make sense.

Speaker 2 (01:34:17):
Yeah, and by the way, that was from a while ago.
But thirteen million dollars in migrant housing and it's just
now popping out that people are going to wait, wait, wait,
what the hell's going on? What you're spending money? Yeah,
they're getting money. Somebody's getting that money and they're making
a butt ton of money off of it, and the

(01:34:38):
cronies are pushing it through. Again, be mad at the
local officials, be mad at the people that want to go, hey,
we'll build it because the federal government's going to hand
you guys money. You're going to get this, this, and this,
and be mad at the federal government for not doing
the things they need to. And if you're weren't doing
if Springfield is just some sort of well, this just
happened recently. Let's go back almost a year. Okay, this

(01:35:01):
is a town council meeting almost a year ago.

Speaker 38 (01:35:03):
I had a.

Speaker 34 (01:35:04):
Louse responsible, did we become a sanctuary city?

Speaker 11 (01:35:06):
And I'm going to tell you what.

Speaker 1 (01:35:07):
You got a lot of mad people.

Speaker 6 (01:35:09):
You got people that are upset and they want answers.

Speaker 13 (01:35:13):
But I watched them command on buses.

Speaker 29 (01:35:15):
I don't know.

Speaker 32 (01:35:15):
How we got them here.

Speaker 2 (01:35:16):
Ida the louse responsible. Did we become a sanctuary city?
The people want to know, you got four thousand? Did
we vote on being a sanctuary city?

Speaker 47 (01:35:24):
Yes?

Speaker 40 (01:35:25):
Or no?

Speaker 10 (01:35:25):
No?

Speaker 17 (01:35:26):
Good because you've got a problem.

Speaker 36 (01:35:28):
But we're not taking anymore.

Speaker 26 (01:35:29):
We're not taking people who.

Speaker 32 (01:35:30):
Are kicking out people out of their houses, that are
driving erradically around town.

Speaker 2 (01:35:35):
The driving thing, by the way, if you've not faulted it,
they're awful at driving. I think it's it's it's easy
to say that that has been one of the biggest
issues because there's been deaths, there's been serious accidents, there's
been a jump in insurance rates, all of these things.

(01:35:58):
On top of all of the other craziness, hyperbole of
they're eating cats into all of that stuff. That's a
real issue that you can point on I go. You
guys can't hide this. But if you ask yourself, why here? Well,
over here, we've got factories. They're willing to work here.
Why they're willing to work here? Are Americans not willing

(01:36:21):
to do the job? Again, it goes back to us earlier.
Today we're talking about consumer We want stuff stock cheap
and deep, so it's easier to let somebody else do
it so we can buy it cheap. We have jobs
that Americans apparently don't want to do, and so factory
guy owns a couple of factories says, hey, I need

(01:36:43):
some people. What do you do you help me get
some people. I'll help you get elected. Money flows follow
the money. The Feds love to hand out money, but
with that comes strings attached, as you all know, and
being in a certain area, you may say to yourself,
I'm going to get myself some re election money. I'm

(01:37:03):
going to get myself potentially an opportunity to sit on
a board at one of these places. What do I
need to do to help you, sir?

Speaker 48 (01:37:10):
I want to know who's busting them in, who's responsible
for that, and who can stop them from coming.

Speaker 2 (01:37:16):
We have a lot of people here.

Speaker 49 (01:37:17):
There has a lot of stores since all this has happened,
have had to put things in place to keep the
theft down. I don't feel like I should have to
go to Walmart or Kroger's and ask somebody just to
get some deodorant out of a.

Speaker 48 (01:37:32):
Cabinet that is now locked.

Speaker 11 (01:37:34):
That's wrong.

Speaker 48 (01:37:35):
It has never been that way, and now all of
a sudden it is. I want to know who's busting
them in, who's responsible for that, and who can stop
them from coming again?

Speaker 2 (01:37:46):
That was last year. Put the anger in the place
it should be, hold people accountable at the federal level,
and then look around your town and ask the question,
somebody's going to be benefiting from this? Who and why?

Speaker 18 (01:38:02):
Who?

Speaker 38 (01:38:03):
And why?

Speaker 2 (01:38:05):
Who's benefiting from this? And why are they doing it?

Speaker 38 (01:38:12):
Well?

Speaker 2 (01:38:12):
Are they doing it because literally nobody will work for you,
right because the job you have in the factory or
wherever nobody wants and you couldn't hire anybody. Well, that's
an issue right there. Are they doing it because they're like, look,
i can get some cheaper labor, and by cheaper labor,
I'm going to follow the law. They're not here again,
they're on these these these you know, they're temporarily paroled

(01:38:35):
into the country, so they've got all of the stuff.
So they're going to pay their tax to the whole
nine yards. That being said, I also know pay them
a little bit less. Maybe, Yeah, I know they're not
going to bitch. They're going to be grateful, They're going
to show up, They're going to do all the things.
And I don't have to worry about that. I couldn't
get anybody else to do that. But to get those
people here, I'm gonna have to help somebody else out.

(01:38:57):
I'm going to have to help them benefit. Be mad
where you should be mad, and if they commit crimes,
then absolutely be freaking mad. But let's be mad where
we should be. And we all too often have put
our anger in other places. Why is that because we
feel like our elected officials have abandoned us? Because they have,

(01:39:18):
and in doing so, we turn it elsewhere three two, three, five,
three eight, twenty four, twenty three at Chad Benson shows
your Twitter, tweet at us text the program. Love hearing
from every single one of you. I do we talked
about in the first hour. We'll probably do it again
tomorrow and I really have a chance to get into
this hour because we had so much stuff to get to.
But the about football, youth football and is it child abuse?

(01:39:42):
I don't think it is to let children under the
age like fifteen or sixteen play football. No, I don't
think it's child abuse. Because there's a couple of people
out there that are kind of going out there and
they're writing books saying this is child abuse. But we
do need to have some serious questions answered about what
we're going to do because we're seeing too many had
entries and I think young people need to develop love

Speaker 23 (01:41:23):
Joe, Welcome to chest No, not the country, the institution,
The chat Benson show.

Speaker 50 (01:41:37):
Kamala Harris appears to have momentum. I think the poles
say she does, but they also say she doesn't.

Speaker 2 (01:41:44):
On a slate of new poles have been rolling out.

Speaker 50 (01:41:46):
Over the last few days, The Morning consult says Harris
got a big bump from the debate out to a
six point lead, whereas The New York Times he had
a college pole says she did not get a big bump.
The race is tied, though that same pole says that
while Trump and Harris are tied now, actually she's up
four points in Pennsylvania. The Washington Post says she and
Trump are tied in Pennsylvania, though another poll from Franklin

(01:42:08):
and Marshall College it came out today, has Kamala up
by three in Pennsylvania, whereas Emerson has her down by
a point in Pennsylvania. In other words, none of these
polls mean anything at all.

Speaker 2 (01:42:21):
Boom absolutely true. And as we've known in the past,
right since the polling of the Trump era began, it
is hard to get a grip on what's real and
what's not. We've talked about it throughout the show today.
Trump voters are not trusting of the people who are
asking the questions, and because of that, buyers are liars.
Maybe they will, maybe they won't. Maybe they will, maybe

(01:42:43):
they won't. Maybe some of them are telling you the truth.
It is hard to get a feel in today's world
of exactly who people are voting for based on survey
questions on the phone. And the other side of it
is you can ask a question and essentially sculpt it
in a way that will give you a desired answer,
which is another reason why buyers are liars. What's the

(01:43:07):
reality of it, I don't know. This is Mark Halprin
talking about Poles.

Speaker 3 (01:43:11):
As I was told a month ago by the Trump people.
They're not necessarily right. But the Times the Times poll
reflects reality and it matches up some private polling suggests
that what based forecast a month ago, which is that
over time, once the Harris honeymoon ended, that she would
she would fall back to where Joe Biden was before
the Biden Trump debate, which is to say behind sufficiently

(01:43:35):
in the four sun Belt states that are a path
the victory was winning Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and Nebraska too.
If the Republicans changed the rules in Nebraska, that would
lead her with no paths doesn't mean the Trump people
are right. But if you do as I do, we
just talked to both sides and credit those who are
making arguments. Is possibly right? Is it possible that we're

(01:43:56):
right where the Republicans said we'd be based on the
Times poll that Trump is pulling the sun veiled states
back and she's going to have a very narrow, single
path and maybe no path be shown.

Speaker 2 (01:44:06):
Spicy Spice are talking about those polls.

Speaker 4 (01:44:09):
The key thing in that pole that I think is
interesting is that it's Trump's at fifty in Arizona forty
nine and Georgia forty nine. In North Carolina, you really
want to be at fifty to start to feel a
little bit of ease still on the marginal error in
both Georgia and North Carolina. But this is exactly what
they've been saying all along, And I don't think it's
a stretch to think that those three states in particular,
who have a history of voting Republican, Georgia and Arizona

(01:44:31):
in particular to come back home right. They were anomalies
of extremely close last cycle. So that's not the North
Carolina I think will continue to be close. But the
bottom line is if you take those three states, which
I do think Trump will, all you need is wont
in that blue wall, so Michigan, Wisconsin or Pennsylvania. I'm
particularly bullish on Pennsylvania. But the bottom line is that's

(01:44:52):
if he picks off one more state he wins, that
puts them back in the White House.

Speaker 13 (01:44:57):
She needs to run, she needs to get everything.

Speaker 4 (01:44:59):
That's that's the difference when it comes to electoral college
is that it's a much better road for him than
it is for her.

Speaker 2 (01:45:06):
Right now, one hundred percent. You know, yesterday, well the
last several days. We left on Sunday, we're driving across
the country. Exciting news coming soon. But one of the
interesting things is everywhere we went we saw Trump stuff.
I didn't see one Kamala bumper sticker or anything. Tons
of Trump stuff everywhere. But I was so explaining to

(01:45:27):
the kids because my thirteen year old stepdaughter, she was
very into politics and the constitution and everything, and it's great,
and you know, we're talking about the electoral college, which
is you know, if you're a kid, you're not quite
wait so wait, it's not most votes. And I was saying, look,
if you were to get rid of the electoral College.
As we talked about just you know, I don't know

(01:45:48):
several times today. What ends up happening is all the
states I passed through for the most part, you know,
was in Arizona, gone into New Mexico. Yeah, I never
seen you, right, Texas, Oh yeah, you give visit Texas, right,
because you need that big population. Right. Then you get
into Oklahoma and nobody's paying attention to you. Right, you
get into to Arkansas, Yeah, nobody's paying attention to you

(01:46:10):
at all. Into you know, into Tennessee. Man, doubtful they'll
pay attention to you. I mean we may come out
for fundraisers. It's a great place to hang out kind
of thing, but nobody's paying attention. I said, what you
can find there will be four or five essentially big
cities that will control everything. That's why we have the
electoral college. And she was like, oh yeah, So when

(01:46:32):
you hear national polling, pay no attention to it. All
you should care about is the seven States. That's it.
Three two, three, five, three eight, twenty four to twenty three.
At Chad Benson shows your Twitter tweet at his text
the program, guess what Johnny.

Speaker 47 (01:46:45):
The Man in Black given a permanent place in the
US Capitol. Johnny Cash the first musician honored with the
bronze statue in the Capitol building. As the US Air
Force Band played his song.

Speaker 2 (01:46:55):
I Keep a Closed Swatch on this heart. His daughter
Roseanne I spoke about what made her father so great.
This man was a living redemption story. He encountered darkness
and met it with love love.

Speaker 47 (01:47:09):
Each state sent it's two statues to represent it in
the Capitol. The Cash statue from Arkansas, where Cash was born.

Speaker 2 (01:47:15):
It's funny we passed by a place that had Johnny
Cash everywhere in Arkansas yesterday and then where I'm currently
at in Nashville. So we travel across the country seeing stations,
talking to people. I can see the Johnny Cash writing
room to write songs, which I find to be rather interesting,
which brings us to this.

Speaker 40 (01:47:34):
And then I go and spoil it all by saying
something stupid.

Speaker 2 (01:47:39):
We'll take stupid tills this morning.

Speaker 5 (01:47:41):
It's the honest ones you want to watch out for,
because you can never predict.

Speaker 2 (01:47:45):
They're going to do something incredibly stupid. Now you're the fat,
stupid one with the big mouth.

Speaker 13 (01:47:51):
Is stupid, little last try.

Speaker 2 (01:47:54):
You should never underestimize the predictability of stup pitoting. Now
it's time time fall stupid information. Jiming with Johnny Cash
nineteen fifty. Johnny Cash signed up do his part for America,
as he liked to say. He was assigned to Landsburg,
West Germany, remember there was East and West Germany on

(01:48:16):
a three year tour. Was placed in the front line
of the Cold War. He was a wireless operator. Sergeant
Cash was one of the many people required to listen
to the Soviets Union during that time. He listened to
a lot of things, but across March fourth and fifth,
Sergeant Cash was entranced by urgent Soviet messages talking about
the sudden declined health of their leader, Joseph Stalin, and

(01:48:39):
in fact, he was the first American to learn of
Joseph Stalin's death. Now you know something that you didn't
three two, three, five, three, eight, twenty four to twenty
three at Chad Benson Shows, you're Twitter, tweet at us,
text the program. Love hearing from all of you right
here on the Chad Benson Show. The doings over the

(01:49:00):
next couple of days. Obviously we're getting closer and closer
to the election. We're almost down to the point where
we're almost a month away. Of course, you can vote now,
as we all know so much stuff though over the
next couple weeks to get to who is going to
move the needle in the way they need to. Don't
if you're not in one of these seven states. Don't
expect the president, the vice president, vice presidential candidates, anybody

(01:49:23):
to show up in any of these states. And the
reason is simple. They are focusing on the thing that
is going to get them over the top Wisconsin, Michigan, Georgia,
to get the brunt of the TV ads and the visits.
You guys, have a blessed rest.

Speaker 25 (01:49:38):
Of your day.

Speaker 2 (01:49:39):
We got you over the humble do it again. Tomorrow's
always night, night Jack.

Speaker 13 (01:49:42):
This is the Chad Benson Show.
