Also, Democrats gather on Capitol Hill to show support for President Joe Biden's faltering 2024 campaign - but Dan isn't buying it.

Show. Please be sure to giveus a five star rating if you'd be

single day on your favorite podcast platform. It is rarely going to get better
than this. That's kind of asad thought, isn't it right? That
it's it's rarely going to get morefun than this? No matter how many
(00:22):
more decades we watch politics, etcetera. This is just one of those
beautiful moments where a force that isvery bad for this nation, the secular
left, is being exposed in frontof everyone's eyes, and that there's no
way out for them. There isno good way out for them. So
there's likely to be a full reckoninghere, and that's really the big issue
(00:43):
to start the show today. Isit going to be just a reckoning or
is it going to be a fullreckoning and spell that wrcking and let's trademark
that one. I guess we'd copyrightit and we could trademark it, but
to full reckoning with a W forthe left here because as you sit here
today and hopefully like me, you'resavoring every second of this. You know,
(01:06):
please don't give into the temptation tobe satisfied with only a win in
the presidential race. And listen tothe stakes there. We all know what
they are. They're big, butbigley big stakes. But no, please,
let's let's set our sites much muchhigher than that, because what should
happen now, just as a matterof the best interests of the nation and
justice and cosmic harmony is an enormouspart of the Left should be taken down.
(01:34):
The damage here should extend so farbeyond the presidential Now, listen,
we're realists here. I mean,we understand. It's not like every Democrat
Senate candidate, congressional candidate is goingto lose. That's just not going to
happen. But anybody in a racethat can be lost, any Democrat and
race that can be lost, theyshould lose in this cycle because the Left
is being fully exposed. All ofthem are being fully exposed as part of
(01:57):
this cover up. But beyond that, on that, think about this,
they if we are lucky, theDemocrats are going to stick with Biden.
I still don't believe it's going tohappen to election. But if we're lucky.
They will be forced to stick withBiden because of their own deceptions and
the box they put themselves in.And if this man makes it to election
(02:17):
day, he is their candidate.On election Day, imagine the devastation,
the devastation that that is going toreak all the way down the ticket.
Imagine the suppressed turnout. Imagine theanger at the Dems for what they're doing.
Imagine the internal dissension among the Deams. I mean, it's it's beautiful,
(02:38):
it's great for America, it's funto watch, it's what they deserve.
But don't set your sights too low. Right now, right now,
the goal has to be for thegood of America, just a wipeout of
Dems. Every race that can beone should be one eight five to five.
For zero five eight two, fiveto five. The number texts d
an five seven, seven three nine. So you know, I said here
(03:00):
today, I'm the guy who's beentelling you for well over a year and
a half that Biden will not bethe nominee. And I stick by that.
I still believe that while sitting hereobviously fervently hoping that he is fervently
hoping, and the qualifier right,he should be removed via the twenty fifth
Amendment, and we'll be talking aboutthat today because Mike Johnson, Speaker of
the House, as you know,has come out and called for that today.
(03:23):
But we know it's not going tohappen. We know it's not going
to happen for the reasons we've talkedabout and we'll get into in some more
detail. So given that, yeah, if he's not going to be removed
via the twenty fifth Amendment, thenfor the good of the country, we
need him to remain their nominee throughelection day because they will lose, and
(03:45):
they will lose on a mass scale. And I've said it all along,
but it is so true, somuch more true today than it was even
yesterday. Only Donald Trump can beatDonald Trump, and I don't see any
signs of that happening. I seeit going the other way. I think
President Trump this has focused him evenfurther because, let's face it, the
guy's a competitor, right. Myguess is you probably are too, but
(04:08):
the guy's a competitor, and sowhen he sees this competitive landscape in front
of him now, it's kind ofan OMG moment because it's like I wait
a second. Everybody knows right nowI'm running against a shadow. So it
would be like losing when you runfor student body president, and I think
we all know somebody or did that. You run for student body president unopposed
(04:30):
and you lose. That's what thiswould be like, I think in President
Trump's mind. So I think that'sgoing to bring out more often the very
best version of Trump because he knows, he knows that he he and Biden
it was. It was more ofa me ko than a TKO, but
Trump still did what he needed todo in that debate. So I think
(04:53):
this is really going to focus Trumpand keep him on track just knowing that,
okay, it is absolutely there forthe taking, and if he doesn't
beat Joe Biden, well everybody willknow that's just a rejection of Donald Trump.
Because as I said before, therecan't be five people in America,
five people in America who actually votedfor Joe Biden. In twenty twenty,
(05:14):
Unfortunately, there were too many peoplewho voted against Donald Trump, but nobody
votes for Joe Biden even then.This time around, it's going to be
fewer than five who actually vote forJoe Biden. So it's really it's Trump's
race to lose. I think it'sgoing to bring out the very best in
him. I think it brought out, you know, that the best in
him in a first debate because,as we talked about going into the debate
(05:38):
on June twenty seven, he hadnot had a good first debate in the
sixteen cycle or the twenty cycle,and he had a much much better first
debate this time around. So Ithink all signs are positive that we're going
to get the A or B versionof Trump and the A or B version
of Trump. The way this raceis shaping up, nobody can touch him.
Eight five to five ur zero fiveA two five five the number.
(06:00):
So we'll be talking about back today. We have some fun sound we always
have, you know, some breakingnews type facts. None of them are
shaking, but a lot of thempretty Darren interesting. The polling out today,
and we're starting to see more andmore polls where they pull other Democrats
against Donald Trump. You know whodid really well in today's around Hillary Clinton.
(06:23):
Anybody who thinks she's given up theghost, Wow, you would not
want to be You would not wantto be anybody else. These Dems are
talking about right now with Hillary Clintonlurking out there. But yeah, I
don't think she's given up that dreamfor a second. And then she pulled
it well today, let me pullit up. I'll pull it up after
the break. I can't remember whodid it. It was one of the
(06:45):
biggies, and the gist of itwas that, yeah, Hillary Clinton was
running better against Trump than anybody Ithink other than Kamala So we'll get let's
call it four point twenty after thenext break up, pull that poll up
and we'll get into the pacifics.But you're starting to see a lot of
those now. But here's what tellsyou it was a bogus poll. It
didn't include Michelle Obama because another majorpoll is I told you yesterday that it
(07:11):
included Michelle Obama. Every other Democratwas losing to Trump, and she was
beating them by eleven. Yeah.So any of these polls you're looking at
now that come out with the others, if they don't include Michelle Obama,
how do you take them seriously?Maybe they did include Michelle Obama and then
held out the result because they wantedthe headline to be about Hillary, because
(07:31):
that really is the headline from thatpoll, how do you think she'd fair
How do you think she'd fair againstTrump in a rematch? Roll aside,
I'm not trusting any one poll onanything. Yeah, Oh wow, that's
tough to figure Dan, because Ithink we've kind of been there, done
that. I think a lot ofpeople would roll their eyes like that wouldn't
be an improvement from Joe Biden interms of oh, we hate to see
(07:54):
these two old candidates going at itagain, Trump and Biden. Well,
that's the same story with Hillary Clinton. And to your pok, I think
Michelle Obama would fare better than HillaryClinton in a head to head matchup based
on favorable likability all that, MichelleObama fair better, don't you think,
by a mile than any of theseother Democrats, but among the most likely
Democrats starting with Kamala Harrison. Onething I want to ask you about after
(08:16):
the break is what do you thinkof this idea of being pushed by some
big money Dems for this speed datingmini primary. You know, when Biden
leaves the race, and I dobelieve Biden is going to leave the race.
The only question is when. Ihope I'm wrong about that. But
because I'll be so easy to beat, But yeah, what do you think
(08:37):
of that idea as well? AndI'll break down some of the details on
the other side we do. We'regoing to spend some real time because it's
so much fun on this bizarrely obviouslyelitist, snobby Twitter post from Governor Polis
And he had to know when hesent it out that it would come across
just that way. So why doyou think he did it? When we
(09:00):
come back, I'll first thing I'lldo is read that post and get your
take on that as well. Solots of fun today. Glad you're here
eight five five for zero five eighttwo five five text d An five seven
seven thirty nine You're on the DanKapla Show And now back to the Dan
Kaplas Show podcast. In a careerfull of superb bumper calls, this one
(09:22):
is absolutely perfect. And think aboutthe stunning, almost reverse poetic irony.
The wrecking ball right now that isin the process of taking down the Left
is the most fragile little guy youcould imagine. Joe Biden. He is
now the wrecking ball, and thinkabout how he's enjoying that because he's never
(09:43):
liked these people. He knows thatthey worse than despise him. They look
down on him, they pity him. He's never been one of the cool
kids. He's always been regarded forwhat he is, which is a real
lightweight and a grifter. And soJoe Biden, don't doubt for second that
he's thoroughly enjoying playing that wrecking ballrole for the left. A beautiful,
(10:05):
beautiful poll there, Ryan. Thatis exactly what's unfolding. And anybody who
thinks he wants the Democrat nominee,whoever that is going to be, to
win, to beat Donald Trump,is not thinking this through. Joe Biden's
always been about Joe Biden and hisbig claim to fame, his quote legacy
which all these people are so obsessedabout, is he stopped Donald Trump.
(10:26):
Hillary Clinton couldn't do it. Youdon't think he's ever said those words,
hillary Clinton couldn't do it. Andwhoever the Dems are going to nominate now,
unless it's Michelle Obama, they can'tdo it. You think Biden's gonna
want somebody else to be able tostand up and say, oh, I
stop Donald Trump too. Not achance. So he is this fragile little
man, and I say little inall of the most important senses is the
(10:48):
wrecking ball. Think about this too, Dan. The only way possible you
could move backward from Joe Biden iswith Hillary Clinton, like backward in time,
like in terms of relevance. Ifthere were a candidate, you would
want to move on from Joe Bidenin my view, again I'm not a
Democrat, but unsolicited advice, Nichol'sworth of free advice. They would want
(11:11):
to move forward with somebody young anddynamic. If there was a two thousand
and four version of Barack Obama somewhere, somebody like that. Well, right,
but compared to Joe Biden, youknow, Moses would be young and
dynamic, and obviously I'd vote forMoses, right But yeah, no,
But Ryan, that's my point isis Hillary Clinton, compared to Joe Biden,
would seem young and dynamic. Imean, Hillary Clinton would be awful
(11:33):
in every imaginable way, but shehas her faculties, she has her mind,
she has strengths. I mean shewould if the contrast is Joe Biden.
Yeah, She's going to be veryimpressive. And the reason we're talking
about this I don't want obviously,I don't want Hillary Clinton as president I
wouldn't mind her as a candidate becauseshe would lose. I just want Trump
(11:56):
to win and the left to lose. That's why I want to be wrong.
I want Joe Biden to be theirnomine come election day. It just
isn't going to happen. But here'sthe poll. Paul finds Biden damaged by
debate with Harris and Clinton best positionto win, but they're kind of hiding.
They're burying the headline here, myfriend. Now, keep in mind,
this national poll was commissioned by aDemocrat firm after the debate, and
(12:18):
it shows Trump ahead forty three toforty two. But then listen to this.
Just twenty nine percent said Biden hasthe mental capacity and physical stamina to
serve another four year term. Blahblah blah. Now you get to top
line stuff. Harris running ahead ofTrump forty two to forty one according to
this dem pole, which I don'tthink can be believed. But here's the
(12:41):
fun part. And former Secretary ofState Hillary Clinton slightly ahead of Harris.
Clinton leads Trump forty three to fortyone. So in this poll, Hillary
Clinton Democrat pole is doing better thanKamala Harris now did Clinton fund this pole,
like the Steele dossier, We'll probablynever know. Here's one thing I
(13:01):
want to throw out there as oneof the dangers, because we all know,
right any other Democrat against Trump isgoing to be a tougher race than
Biden against Trump. America is justnot going to vote for Joe Biden.
I think that sign sealed delivered.Only Donald Trump could beat Donald Trump at
(13:22):
that point. But if whoever thedem nominee is going to be is female,
the danger goes up there, becausethe danger of Taylor Swift getting involved
in the race goes way up,way up if the Democrat candidate is a
female. And I don't want tooccupy the show with the whole Taylor Swift
thing today. I know there aretwo or three people on the planet who
don't like her. I don't likeher politics, I love her music and
(13:46):
all that other stuff. It's beena father daughter thing for us since for
the last fifteen years. But here'sthe point. Taylor Swift is on this
whole f and she literally said itcertain Europe the patriarchy thing far less likely.
She's going to take the downsides ofgetting involved in this race to help
(14:07):
with Joe Biden. But all ofa sudden, you've got a female candidate
for president. I think much muchgreater danger that she gets involved. And
again, the deal with Taylor Swift, last thing I'll say about it,
unless you want to the deal withTaylor Swift is not an endorsement that.
Yeah, you'd rather she not endorsethe dem but that's not going to change
the race. What's going to changethe race is if she dedicates herselves to
(14:30):
herself to the swing states. Okay, she dedicates herself to the swing states
and starts making appearances. Can youimagine she shows up picked your swing state,
let's say, down in Arizona orGeorgia or whatever, and Taylor Swift
is going to be in the citycenter and it's all going to be free,
and all you have to do iscome down and you're register to voting
(14:50):
this and that. That's the kindof stuff that would get spooky, But
far less likely that she does itfor a Joe Biden than a female candidate.
Once upon a time, in agal far far away, long long
ago, Dan, I was ayoung person. You should write that down.
Well, in the nineties, whenI was in college, rock the
vote was a thing by MTV,and it was big, and they came
(15:11):
to college campuses, and you know, I didn't realize it at the time,
as you know, someone that wasnot left of center, but they
were trying to enlist young people tovote Democrat. That was the kind of
hitting agenda, but they weren't reallyovert about that. And then in the
two thousands, early two thousands,twenty years ago. Kind of interesting because
he's in the news now, butSean Puffy Combs tough Daddy did vote or
(15:31):
Die. So there've been these youthmovements before, and Taylor Swift would be
very central to this particular cause.And I agree with you. I think
she could be effective. But Ithink you got to really call into question
though the candidate himself. Are youngpeople going to get excited about a Joe
Biden the way that people my agedan Bill Clinton was young. He was
vibrant. You remember this nineteen ninetytwo. He was a new generation,
(15:54):
he was the next generation. Hewas going on Oursenio Hall, playing saxophone.
He was telling whether he wore boxersor briefs on MTV. He was
cool. Bill Clinton was cool.Joe Biden is not cool. I don't
think Taylor Swift or anybody else isgoing to excite today's youth to go out
and vote for Joe Biden at all. Well, wait, two different things.
(16:14):
She's much less likely to get involvedfor Joe Biden with the Joe Biden
for the reasons you say. Butbeyond that, my friend paulish a turd,
Dan, Taylor Swift could go outand do whatever she wants. It
just isn't gonna work. Joe Bidenis terrible. To my point, He's
no Bill Clinton, he's no BarackObama. If Taylor Swift went out in
concert for either of those two,yeah, I think she makes a big
difference. Joe Biden's an immovable objectat this point electorally in my view.
(16:40):
Yeah. Yeah, Well, let'sjust hope she doesn't get involved. And
again I didn't mean that as themain focus today, but worse a mention
since Hillary Clinton out polling Kamala Harrisin this DEM poll that just came out,
Dan, they should Paul Michelle Obamawithout Brocktacy what people really think about
her, because I think they reallywant him again. Well that's a great
point. I mean, sure thatpeople who like him and want him again,
(17:00):
well, he would be back inthe White House with Michelle Obama,
and I think people would assume that'dbe part of a team effort. That's
part of what makes her so scary. And the only poll I've seen out
credible poll at this point that pullsMichelle Obama against Trump has her up eleven
points. That doesn't mean that PresidentTrump would necessarily lose to her, but
she's polling twelve or thirteen points betterthan any other Democrat, and anybody who
(17:25):
just assumes out there at this pointthat she's not thinking about this or it
doesn't remain a possibility because she saysit doesn't. I don't think they paid
attention to the Obamas. Dan.I've heard that if Democrats put forward anyone
else other than Kamala Harris, theylose two hundred and fifty million in campaign
contributions. Can you shed any lighton that? Yeah, great Wall Street
(17:45):
Journal piece in it this morning.Here's the key for Harris to get that
money. For Harris to get thatmoney, they have to make it through
the convention and Biden. Harris haveto be formally nominated at the convention,
then Biden drops out, then Harrisgets access to that money. Otherwise she
(18:07):
doesn't. So Yeah, great piecein the Wall Street Journal on that eight
five or zero five A two fiveto five the number of the Polis snobbish
tweet. Next, you're listening tothe Dan Kapliss Show podcast. Oh great,
leading there, Ryan, thank you, Hey, everybody jamming the lines.
I'll get you on air and getyou on air shortly. Grateful for
(18:27):
the chance to do a drop withthe tremendous Heidi ganall as the newssite news
aggregator site Rocky Mountain Voice dot com, which I think should be an everyday
stop for conservatives everywhere. Hi doyou welcome back to the Dan Kaplis Show.
Well, Hi, Dan, hopeyou're having a great summer. How
could it be better? It doesn'tget any more fun than this. Oh
(18:52):
wow, life is interesting right now, especially if you're in politics. There
is so much to talk about.Well, let me ask you about this,
Heidie, because I I know youtweeted on this. I follow you
on Twitter, and Governor Polis hashad two very odd tweets in the last
day, one of which he hadto know would come across as very elitist
and snobbish. I have my owntheory on why he's done that. He's
(19:14):
just put out the second tweet,this one that you had commented on.
Polis writes, none of my intelligentone thirty plus IQ friends use x slash
Twitter. They only read accurate,vetted news sources and almost never use social
media spontaneously on their own time.This has been a long term, consistent
observation, but today confirmation came.Then he cited some purported study to show
(19:37):
that as your IQ goes up,your Twitter use goes down. And then
the one today that just came outa few minutes ago. Personally, I
love participating in the x slash Twittercommunity and applaud the strong, virile leadership
of at Elon Musk. And thenhe posts a picture of the Simpsons right,
and I for one welcome our newinsect overlords. And it shows an
(20:00):
insect beating some human with a whip. So what do you make of that
one? He is off the rails. I mean, I know he's quirky,
and there's probably some undertones to hislove of comics and anime all that
stuff, but I don't think he'sconnecting with the common every DIGITUARI. Maybe
(20:22):
that makes us low IQ. No, Heidi come on. Are you suggesting
that the legalization of marijuana and Coloradois personal for the governor? Oh my
goodness, what cracks me up ashe says he's never tried it. Have
you heard that? No? No, I don't know if he's a podcast
A couple of weeks ago, wealso, I guess it maybe just didn't
(20:45):
inhale. Yeah, do you wantto hear my theory on this and then
tell me if you think I'm offmy rocker. But my theory on this
is twofold. My lead theory isthat this is a desperate, groveling,
pasthetic, obvious play for attention ofElon Musk, just hoping that Elon Musk
(21:07):
responds and boost Poulis's profile. Theother related possibility is the first tweet anyway,
is that he's expecting, as hee now attemptstander the presidential race as
soon as Biden's out. He's expectingsome negative stories on Twitter, and he's
trying to get out ahead. Butwhat's your theory? I think paulus from
getting to know him behind the scenes, because we did have conversations and interactions
(21:32):
a lot as we were waiting togo on the debate stage or with our
team lots of different situations where itwas so awkward. Dan, he is
so awkward, and he is soarrogant and thinks he's so much better than
the rest of us, especially merunning against him. That I think that
was a one of the reasons whyit was easy. Not easy, but
we were able to go up againsthim in the debate because he was so
(21:56):
confident that he was going to justdestroy me, and we leveraged that arrogance
and that overconfidence. And he doesthat in lots of situations, and he
comes off, as you know,very elitist and just untouchable. And I
think he's showing his true colors.That's what I said on Twitter. This
is how he is behind the scenes, and thirty million dollars in TV ads
(22:19):
and flyers and a media that justnow, yeah, kisses his real end
won't show that side of him.And it's going to be interesting to see
if he does enter the presidential racehow quickly that gets exposed. No,
and Heidigan all our guest. Ithink if every coloradden had seen even one
of those debates, you'd be ourgovernor. But obviously that's not the way
the media works. And he's gotthe money to swamp that, but you
(22:41):
just threshed to meet end every time. So now let me ask you this
question, Heidi, and we willget to our jam lines, But Heidi
Ganal and the website Rocky Mountain Voice, what will it take for Colorado GOP
to win statewide again? In amore precise question, this cannibalism that we're
(23:03):
seeing, long overdue and very deservedcannibalism we're seen among the left right now
nationally, will that help open thedoor? I know we don't have the
big state wide races this year,but will that help open the door to
actually winning statewide in a couple ofyears? Well, Dan flow and deliberate
in helping every individual grassroots group getbetter and stronger and doing it on a
(23:29):
very local basis where they're very connectedin their community, in their neighborhood,
and really just getting back to blockingand tackling and building relationships, and you
know, just kind of watching theleft and plode. Don't get involved,
don't get engaged, and even theshanigans in our own party just ignore it,
don't give it any attention. It'llprobably resolve itself and will come out
(23:51):
of the ashes, will be stronger, will be more connected at the community
level. We'll have a great wayto get our message out, whether it's
Dan Capitalist Koa or it's Rocky MountainVoice in our newsletter that's going out to
over one hundred thousand people. Nowthat's cool. That's cool. So we're
rebuilding from the bottom up. We'rebuilding a messaging platform, We're building a
wait for our candidates and our folksto get their message out. We're building
(24:15):
community again. We're rebuilding our grassrootsmovement, our conservative movement, one group
at a time, and we're alsoinvesting in really good data and technology on
the Road to Red and Rocky MountainVoice side so that we don't have to
start over every two years, whichis a big mistake we make in car
out of politics. So it's justfundamentals, and so we're working on all
(24:36):
of that behind the scenes with likefifty different grassroots groups around the state,
and we're ignoring all the drama andjust rolling up our sleeves and building relationships
again in our community. Well,I am really glad you're doing it.
Our friend George Brockler just texting me. He said, some guys get together
to play golf, others to drinkbeer and watch sports. Paul Us and
his buddies sit around and take IQtests. Who are these people? It
(25:00):
sounds like that was your experience.All yeah, but you know, and
you're going to enjoy this, Heidi, not in a mean way, maybe
a little bit, but but butjust as with Bennett and Hick and Looper,
these guys who live in this littlemedia money bubble in Colorado and then
they believe to think that nothing stinksand they go out on the national stage
where guess what, They're not goingto have the protection of the media because
(25:22):
a lot of leftist media wants somebodyelse, and then all of a sudden
they get totally exposed and it isnot pretty. And that's what awaits Jared
Polis Well, I think it's goingto be interesting to watch what happens with
Fox News and some of the outletsthat have, yeah, Jared their moderate
Democrat or livery when it comes downto running in the actual race. And
(25:44):
then when he's finally competing against ourguys, are they going to stick with
him? Yeah? No, that'sright, because you're right. I think
it's standard preneur. I respect alot, except for this infatuation with Jared
Polis right. So Polis is thecandidate of freedom right, which means you're
free to do what Polus want wantsyou to do and nothing else. But
yeah, well, Heidi, thanksfor your time and all the great work
you're doing, and look forward tothe next visit. Well, thanks Dan,
(26:08):
thanks to you also, and yourlisteners are awesome. We have a
lot to look forward to in Colorado. I have hope that we're going to
turn this around. Let's let theDemocrats do their thing and implode, and
the more expensive it gets to livehere, the more dangerous it gets to
live here. Voters are going towake up and make different decisions, and
I think that starts in just afew months with the election this fall.
(26:30):
And let's enjoy the implosion, thecannibalism right now. I think we've earned
it, and you certainly have.So Heidi, talk to you soon.
Thank you, thank you. Okay, here's the game plan, Heidi ganaland
please do follow her on Twitter andRocky Mountain Voice. Everybody on the lines.
Thank you for your patience. Here'smy solemn promise to you, hanging
there through one break and short ofthe Good Lord coming down and appearing on
(26:56):
this next segment. I'm going straightto the phone lines, which means you're
on the Dan care Apples Show.And now back to the Dan Kaplas Show
podcast. I made clear publicly theday after the basis that came fort President
Joe Biden and the Democratic ticket.My position has not changed, but that's
(27:18):
Biden and the Democratic ticket. Tosupport Biden on the ticket or just Biden
and whatever the ticket is. Answer, we have a great president. And
this montage goes on and on,and all I can say is it's music
to my ears. Please hang inthere, Joey, hang in there.
I've never wanted to be wrong morein my life because some of the guy
(27:42):
who's been saying about Biden he's notgoing to be the nominee. He's not,
unfortunately come election day, but boycan you imagine if he was devastation
up and down the ticket. Soplease, Joey, every day you hang
in there, every day helps us, helps Trump defeat you, helps every
candidate defeat every Democrat. Let's goto the phone line, So start in
(28:03):
Fremont here on the Dan Kapla Show. Welcome, Chris. Hey you there,
Dan. I sure hope so,but if I'm not, this is
a great dream. Well, andI know how it ends. That brings
me to one thing that we don'thear enough on this show, and that's
(28:30):
behind the scenes. You know,there's many times when I'm on an airplane
or you're on your way down theinterstate or in a different city, for
crying out loud and Ryan and Kellyhold down the helm and I'm sure that
there's many and many others. Andall I wanted to say was thank them,
(28:56):
thank the people behind the scenes thatdon't be a credit as they should.
Well, thank you for that.And this is Chris Sholing. Yeah,
thank you, Chris, Chris,appreciate the call man. Thank you
for that one. And I hadnothing to do with that, and no,
I think he had presented a differenttopic to Kelly. Oh he did
put up there. But it's greatto have people care that much. And
(29:18):
hopefully you assure people that we expressour appreciation all the time here without question.
Yes, yes, when we're notdoing other things. But Matt in
Colorado springs here on the Dan KaplisShow. Welcome, Hello, Dan,
Hi Matt, thanks for bringing thetruth to our state. Thank you for
that. Longtime listener, first timecaller. Quick question about the ballot process
(29:45):
and someone still get on the ballot. Have any ballot deadline asks that would
prevent Yes from being replaced by someone? What a great question. Different states
or yeah, I know that Heritageis mounting a legal challenge at this point,
or preparing a legal challenge to tryto oppose changing out the candidate to
(30:08):
anybody but Biden in three particular states. I can't remember the three right now,
just based on particulars of those statesand those states laws. So yeah,
it's you know, when they doswitch, it's going to be fascinating
to see how those challenges work.Yeah, I'm just curious. Yeah,
(30:30):
deadlines passed and they can't get somebodyon there. Yeah, No, those
are going to be Yeah. Andas you probably know, Matt, and
thank you for the kind words.All over America right now, you have
a very very high level, wellfunded, well organized GOP legal effort underway
to try to make sure that stateshave to follow their own election laws.
(30:51):
And you also have this big pushin Congress now to make sure that folks
here illegally don't get to vote.The Democrats are opposing that push with everything
they have. Let's go to Larryand Thornton. You're on the Dan Kapla,
so welcome. Well, Dan,I'm sure you remember two years ago
at the before midterms, it seemslike all the conservative radio and TV talk
(31:15):
show hosts were saying, or saythey're expressing, that there was going to
be a Republican tsunami and what we'regoing to have, right, we were
going to have a super majority andare ran through our legislations and a lot
(31:36):
of conservatives, I know they arebusy, and then when it comes to
voting, if they're very confident,that they turn lazy and they don't vote.
I'm so glad you mentioned that,and I think the overconfidence prior to
the midterms was the reason we didnot get that tremendous turnout that we expected.
(31:57):
Boy, I'm telling you, Larry, what a brilliant point you make,
because I was thinking today driving overhere. You know what, there
is a real danger of over confidence. If Biden is actually going to stay
in this race, there is areal danger of over confidence on the part
of the right. So I'm gladyou mentioned that. My friend, I'm
with you. I'm concerned about that. You know, I think if what's
(32:20):
likely to happen happens and they havea different nominee. That's going to jolt
everybody out of this confidence bubble thatI think has surrounded Donald Trump right now,
which he's handling beautifully. I thinkhe's just handled it perfectly publicly.
But it's human nature, right ifenough people think the race is locked up,
but since it's likely to be adifferent candidate, then there are going
(32:43):
to be other reasons to be concerned. Because I will tell you right now,
all these tomahawks steaks I'm about towin because Biden's not going to be
their nominee. I will bet themall, and bet multiples of those tomahawks
that whoever the Democrat is is goingto soon be in the lead, and
that they're going to have a meaningfullead in the polling very quickly. It's
(33:05):
going to be a sugar high,I hope, and then it's going to
wear down. Now, keep itin mind that that historically Donald Trump has
outperformed the polls. I mean,at this point in twenty twenty, he
was what nine points behind Biden?Biden was nine points ahead, and we
all know how twenty twenty turned out. But yeah, any other Democrat living
or dead, they are going tobe leading in the polls soon after they
(33:29):
take over this race. I dothink that will disappear at five to five?
Is the five A two five five? The number? So many great
texts coming in, Dan, Idon't see how every day helps anymore for
Trump to be Biden. I stillthink with Malan voting, illegals voting in
other ways, Thems could still pullit out even with a feeble Biden.
(33:50):
What a great way to go intothe next segment. Is there any scenario
short of the obvious one? Rightif if Trump were to defeat Trump?
But there's no sign of that.If anything, this div elements seems to
be focusing him even further so assumingTrump doesn't beat Trump. Is there any
other way the Dems win the presidencywith Biden on the ballot? As unlikely
(34:13):
as that scenario is that he's onthe ballot, Is there any way they
win it? I do want totalk about that when we come back for
news. I don't think we coulddo it in the next thirty seconds.
Couldn't do it? Justice, Dan, what's the infatuation with Michelle? She
has literally zero experience. First,it's not my infatuation. I think she
would be a devastatingly bad president,devastatingly bad, even worse than her husband.
(34:37):
But if we're talking clear eyed andhonest about whether she'd have a very
real chance to win the presidency,absolutely, and why if that's what the
text goes to. We can talkabout that some more in the next hour.
But you look at the polling now, every other Democrat losing Trump,
Michelle Obama beating him by eleven inthe polling ay fib five or is there
(34:57):
a five A two five five?Let's hope she doesn't enter. You're on
the Dane Caplshow.
This is Dan Caples and welcome totoday's online podcast edition of The Dan Caplis
Show. Please be sure to giveus a five star rating if you'd be
so kind, and to subscribe,download, and listen to the show every
single day on your favorite podcast platform. It is rarely going to get better
than this. That's kind of asad thought, isn't it right? That
it's it's rarely going to get morefun than this? No matter how many
(00:22):
more decades we watch politics, etcetera. This is just one of those
beautiful moments where a force that isvery bad for this nation, the secular
left, is being exposed in frontof everyone's eyes, and that there's no
way out for them. There isno good way out for them. So
there's likely to be a full reckoninghere, and that's really the big issue
(00:43):
to start the show today. Isit going to be just a reckoning or
is it going to be a fullreckoning and spell that wrcking and let's trademark
that one. I guess we'd copyrightit and we could trademark it, but
to full reckoning with a W forthe left here because as you sit here
today and hopefully like me, you'resavoring every second of this. You know,
(01:06):
please don't give into the temptation tobe satisfied with only a win in
the presidential race. And listen tothe stakes there. We all know what
they are. They're big, butbigley big stakes. But no, please,
let's let's set our sites much muchhigher than that, because what should
happen now, just as a matterof the best interests of the nation and
justice and cosmic harmony is an enormouspart of the Left should be taken down.
(01:34):
The damage here should extend so farbeyond the presidential Now, listen,
we're realists here. I mean,we understand. It's not like every Democrat
Senate candidate, congressional candidate is goingto lose. That's just not going to
happen. But anybody in a racethat can be lost, any Democrat and
race that can be lost, theyshould lose in this cycle because the Left
is being fully exposed. All ofthem are being fully exposed as part of
(01:57):
this cover up. But beyond that, on that, think about this,
they if we are lucky, theDemocrats are going to stick with Biden.
I still don't believe it's going tohappen to election. But if we're lucky.
They will be forced to stick withBiden because of their own deceptions and
the box they put themselves in.And if this man makes it to election
(02:17):
day, he is their candidate.On election Day, imagine the devastation,
the devastation that that is going toreak all the way down the ticket.
Imagine the suppressed turnout. Imagine theanger at the Dems for what they're doing.
Imagine the internal dissension among the Deams. I mean, it's it's beautiful,
(02:38):
it's great for America, it's funto watch, it's what they deserve.
But don't set your sights too low. Right now, right now,
the goal has to be for thegood of America, just a wipeout of
Dems. Every race that can beone should be one eight five to five.
For zero five eight two, fiveto five. The number texts d
an five seven, seven three nine. So you know, I said here
(03:00):
today, I'm the guy who's beentelling you for well over a year and
a half that Biden will not bethe nominee. And I stick by that.
I still believe that while sitting hereobviously fervently hoping that he is fervently
hoping, and the qualifier right,he should be removed via the twenty fifth
Amendment, and we'll be talking aboutthat today because Mike Johnson, Speaker of
the House, as you know,has come out and called for that today.
(03:23):
But we know it's not going tohappen. We know it's not going
to happen for the reasons we've talkedabout and we'll get into in some more
detail. So given that, yeah, if he's not going to be removed
via the twenty fifth Amendment, thenfor the good of the country, we
need him to remain their nominee throughelection day because they will lose, and
(03:45):
they will lose on a mass scale. And I've said it all along,
but it is so true, somuch more true today than it was even
yesterday. Only Donald Trump can beatDonald Trump, and I don't see any
signs of that happening. I seeit going the other way. I think
President Trump this has focused him evenfurther because, let's face it, the
guy's a competitor, right. Myguess is you probably are too, but
(04:08):
the guy's a competitor, and sowhen he sees this competitive landscape in front
of him now, it's kind ofan OMG moment because it's like I wait
a second. Everybody knows right nowI'm running against a shadow. So it
would be like losing when you runfor student body president, and I think
we all know somebody or did that. You run for student body president unopposed
(04:30):
and you lose. That's what thiswould be like, I think in President
Trump's mind. So I think that'sgoing to bring out more often the very
best version of Trump because he knows, he knows that he he and Biden
it was. It was more ofa me ko than a TKO, but
Trump still did what he needed todo in that debate. So I think
(04:53):
this is really going to focus Trumpand keep him on track just knowing that,
okay, it is absolutely there forthe taking, and if he doesn't
beat Joe Biden, well everybody willknow that's just a rejection of Donald Trump.
Because as I said before, therecan't be five people in America,
five people in America who actually votedfor Joe Biden. In twenty twenty,
(05:14):
Unfortunately, there were too many peoplewho voted against Donald Trump, but nobody
votes for Joe Biden even then.This time around, it's going to be
fewer than five who actually vote forJoe Biden. So it's really it's Trump's
race to lose. I think it'sgoing to bring out the very best in
him. I think it brought out, you know, that the best in
him in a first debate because,as we talked about going into the debate
(05:38):
on June twenty seven, he hadnot had a good first debate in the
sixteen cycle or the twenty cycle,and he had a much much better first
debate this time around. So Ithink all signs are positive that we're going
to get the A or B versionof Trump and the A or B version
of Trump. The way this raceis shaping up, nobody can touch him.
Eight five to five ur zero fiveA two five five the number.
(06:00):
So we'll be talking about back today. We have some fun sound we always
have, you know, some breakingnews type facts. None of them are
shaking, but a lot of thempretty Darren interesting. The polling out today,
and we're starting to see more andmore polls where they pull other Democrats
against Donald Trump. You know whodid really well in today's around Hillary Clinton.
(06:23):
Anybody who thinks she's given up theghost, Wow, you would not
want to be You would not wantto be anybody else. These Dems are
talking about right now with Hillary Clintonlurking out there. But yeah, I
don't think she's given up that dreamfor a second. And then she pulled
it well today, let me pullit up. I'll pull it up after
the break. I can't remember whodid it. It was one of the
(06:45):
biggies, and the gist of itwas that, yeah, Hillary Clinton was
running better against Trump than anybody Ithink other than Kamala So we'll get let's
call it four point twenty after thenext break up, pull that poll up
and we'll get into the pacifics.But you're starting to see a lot of
those now. But here's what tellsyou it was a bogus poll. It
didn't include Michelle Obama because another majorpoll is I told you yesterday that it
(07:11):
included Michelle Obama. Every other Democratwas losing to Trump, and she was
beating them by eleven. Yeah.So any of these polls you're looking at
now that come out with the others, if they don't include Michelle Obama,
how do you take them seriously?Maybe they did include Michelle Obama and then
held out the result because they wantedthe headline to be about Hillary, because
(07:31):
that really is the headline from thatpoll, how do you think she'd fair
How do you think she'd fair againstTrump in a rematch? Roll aside,
I'm not trusting any one poll onanything. Yeah, Oh wow, that's
tough to figure Dan, because Ithink we've kind of been there, done
that. I think a lot ofpeople would roll their eyes like that wouldn't
be an improvement from Joe Biden interms of oh, we hate to see
(07:54):
these two old candidates going at itagain, Trump and Biden. Well,
that's the same story with Hillary Clinton. And to your pok, I think
Michelle Obama would fare better than HillaryClinton in a head to head matchup based
on favorable likability all that, MichelleObama fair better, don't you think,
by a mile than any of theseother Democrats, but among the most likely
Democrats starting with Kamala Harrison. Onething I want to ask you about after
(08:16):
the break is what do you thinkof this idea of being pushed by some
big money Dems for this speed datingmini primary. You know, when Biden
leaves the race, and I dobelieve Biden is going to leave the race.
The only question is when. Ihope I'm wrong about that. But
because I'll be so easy to beat, But yeah, what do you think
(08:37):
of that idea as well? AndI'll break down some of the details on
the other side we do. We'regoing to spend some real time because it's
so much fun on this bizarrely obviouslyelitist, snobby Twitter post from Governor Polis
And he had to know when hesent it out that it would come across
just that way. So why doyou think he did it? When we
(09:00):
come back, I'll first thing I'lldo is read that post and get your
take on that as well. Solots of fun today. Glad you're here
eight five five for zero five eighttwo five five text d An five seven
seven thirty nine You're on the DanKapla Show And now back to the Dan
Kaplas Show podcast. In a careerfull of superb bumper calls, this one
(09:22):
is absolutely perfect. And think aboutthe stunning, almost reverse poetic irony.
The wrecking ball right now that isin the process of taking down the Left
is the most fragile little guy youcould imagine. Joe Biden. He is
now the wrecking ball, and thinkabout how he's enjoying that because he's never
(09:43):
liked these people. He knows thatthey worse than despise him. They look
down on him, they pity him. He's never been one of the cool
kids. He's always been regarded forwhat he is, which is a real
lightweight and a grifter. And soJoe Biden, don't doubt for second that
he's thoroughly enjoying playing that wrecking ballrole for the left. A beautiful,
(10:05):
beautiful poll there, Ryan. Thatis exactly what's unfolding. And anybody who
thinks he wants the Democrat nominee,whoever that is going to be, to
win, to beat Donald Trump,is not thinking this through. Joe Biden's
always been about Joe Biden and hisbig claim to fame, his quote legacy
which all these people are so obsessedabout, is he stopped Donald Trump.
(10:26):
Hillary Clinton couldn't do it. Youdon't think he's ever said those words,
hillary Clinton couldn't do it. Andwhoever the Dems are going to nominate now,
unless it's Michelle Obama, they can'tdo it. You think Biden's gonna
want somebody else to be able tostand up and say, oh, I
stop Donald Trump too. Not achance. So he is this fragile little
man, and I say little inall of the most important senses is the
(10:48):
wrecking ball. Think about this too, Dan. The only way possible you
could move backward from Joe Biden iswith Hillary Clinton, like backward in time,
like in terms of relevance. Ifthere were a candidate, you would
want to move on from Joe Bidenin my view, again I'm not a
Democrat, but unsolicited advice, Nichol'sworth of free advice. They would want
(11:11):
to move forward with somebody young anddynamic. If there was a two thousand
and four version of Barack Obama somewhere, somebody like that. Well, right,
but compared to Joe Biden, youknow, Moses would be young and
dynamic, and obviously I'd vote forMoses, right But yeah, no,
But Ryan, that's my point isis Hillary Clinton, compared to Joe Biden,
would seem young and dynamic. Imean, Hillary Clinton would be awful
(11:33):
in every imaginable way, but shehas her faculties, she has her mind,
she has strengths. I mean shewould if the contrast is Joe Biden.
Yeah, She's going to be veryimpressive. And the reason we're talking
about this I don't want obviously,I don't want Hillary Clinton as president I
wouldn't mind her as a candidate becauseshe would lose. I just want Trump
(11:56):
to win and the left to lose. That's why I want to be wrong.
I want Joe Biden to be theirnomine come election day. It just
isn't going to happen. But here'sthe poll. Paul finds Biden damaged by
debate with Harris and Clinton best positionto win, but they're kind of hiding.
They're burying the headline here, myfriend. Now, keep in mind,
this national poll was commissioned by aDemocrat firm after the debate, and
(12:18):
it shows Trump ahead forty three toforty two. But then listen to this.
Just twenty nine percent said Biden hasthe mental capacity and physical stamina to
serve another four year term. Blahblah blah. Now you get to top
line stuff. Harris running ahead ofTrump forty two to forty one according to
this dem pole, which I don'tthink can be believed. But here's the
(12:41):
fun part. And former Secretary ofState Hillary Clinton slightly ahead of Harris.
Clinton leads Trump forty three to fortyone. So in this poll, Hillary
Clinton Democrat pole is doing better thanKamala Harris now did Clinton fund this pole,
like the Steele dossier, We'll probablynever know. Here's one thing I
(13:01):
want to throw out there as oneof the dangers, because we all know,
right any other Democrat against Trump isgoing to be a tougher race than
Biden against Trump. America is justnot going to vote for Joe Biden.
I think that sign sealed delivered.Only Donald Trump could beat Donald Trump at
(13:22):
that point. But if whoever thedem nominee is going to be is female,
the danger goes up there, becausethe danger of Taylor Swift getting involved
in the race goes way up,way up if the Democrat candidate is a
female. And I don't want tooccupy the show with the whole Taylor Swift
thing today. I know there aretwo or three people on the planet who
don't like her. I don't likeher politics, I love her music and
(13:46):
all that other stuff. It's beena father daughter thing for us since for
the last fifteen years. But here'sthe point. Taylor Swift is on this
whole f and she literally said itcertain Europe the patriarchy thing far less likely.
She's going to take the downsides ofgetting involved in this race to help
(14:07):
with Joe Biden. But all ofa sudden, you've got a female candidate
for president. I think much muchgreater danger that she gets involved. And
again, the deal with Taylor Swift, last thing I'll say about it,
unless you want to the deal withTaylor Swift is not an endorsement that.
Yeah, you'd rather she not endorsethe dem but that's not going to change
the race. What's going to changethe race is if she dedicates herselves to
(14:30):
herself to the swing states. Okay, she dedicates herself to the swing states
and starts making appearances. Can youimagine she shows up picked your swing state,
let's say, down in Arizona orGeorgia or whatever, and Taylor Swift
is going to be in the citycenter and it's all going to be free,
and all you have to do iscome down and you're register to voting
(14:50):
this and that. That's the kindof stuff that would get spooky, But
far less likely that she does itfor a Joe Biden than a female candidate.
Once upon a time, in agal far far away, long long
ago, Dan, I was ayoung person. You should write that down.
Well, in the nineties, whenI was in college, rock the
vote was a thing by MTV,and it was big, and they came
(15:11):
to college campuses, and you know, I didn't realize it at the time,
as you know, someone that wasnot left of center, but they
were trying to enlist young people tovote Democrat. That was the kind of
hitting agenda, but they weren't reallyovert about that. And then in the
two thousands, early two thousands,twenty years ago. Kind of interesting because
he's in the news now, butSean Puffy Combs tough Daddy did vote or
(15:31):
Die. So there've been these youthmovements before, and Taylor Swift would be
very central to this particular cause.And I agree with you. I think
she could be effective. But Ithink you got to really call into question
though the candidate himself. Are youngpeople going to get excited about a Joe
Biden the way that people my agedan Bill Clinton was young. He was
vibrant. You remember this nineteen ninetytwo. He was a new generation,
(15:54):
he was the next generation. Hewas going on Oursenio Hall, playing saxophone.
He was telling whether he wore boxersor briefs on MTV. He was
cool. Bill Clinton was cool.Joe Biden is not cool. I don't
think Taylor Swift or anybody else isgoing to excite today's youth to go out
and vote for Joe Biden at all. Well, wait, two different things.
(16:14):
She's much less likely to get involvedfor Joe Biden with the Joe Biden
for the reasons you say. Butbeyond that, my friend paulish a turd,
Dan, Taylor Swift could go outand do whatever she wants. It
just isn't gonna work. Joe Bidenis terrible. To my point, He's
no Bill Clinton, he's no BarackObama. If Taylor Swift went out in
concert for either of those two,yeah, I think she makes a big
difference. Joe Biden's an immovable objectat this point electorally in my view.
(16:40):
Yeah. Yeah, Well, let'sjust hope she doesn't get involved. And
again I didn't mean that as themain focus today, but worse a mention
since Hillary Clinton out polling Kamala Harrisin this DEM poll that just came out,
Dan, they should Paul Michelle Obamawithout Brocktacy what people really think about
her, because I think they reallywant him again. Well that's a great
point. I mean, sure thatpeople who like him and want him again,
(17:00):
well, he would be back inthe White House with Michelle Obama,
and I think people would assume that'dbe part of a team effort. That's
part of what makes her so scary. And the only poll I've seen out
credible poll at this point that pullsMichelle Obama against Trump has her up eleven
points. That doesn't mean that PresidentTrump would necessarily lose to her, but
she's polling twelve or thirteen points betterthan any other Democrat, and anybody who
(17:25):
just assumes out there at this pointthat she's not thinking about this or it
doesn't remain a possibility because she saysit doesn't. I don't think they paid
attention to the Obamas. Dan.I've heard that if Democrats put forward anyone
else other than Kamala Harris, theylose two hundred and fifty million in campaign
contributions. Can you shed any lighton that? Yeah, great Wall Street
(17:45):
Journal piece in it this morning.Here's the key for Harris to get that
money. For Harris to get thatmoney, they have to make it through
the convention and Biden. Harris haveto be formally nominated at the convention,
then Biden drops out, then Harrisgets access to that money. Otherwise she
(18:07):
doesn't. So Yeah, great piecein the Wall Street Journal on that eight
five or zero five A two fiveto five the number of the Polis snobbish
tweet. Next, you're listening tothe Dan Kapliss Show podcast. Oh great,
leading there, Ryan, thank you, Hey, everybody jamming the lines.
I'll get you on air and getyou on air shortly. Grateful for
(18:27):
the chance to do a drop withthe tremendous Heidi ganall as the newssite news
aggregator site Rocky Mountain Voice dot com, which I think should be an everyday
stop for conservatives everywhere. Hi doyou welcome back to the Dan Kaplis Show.
Well, Hi, Dan, hopeyou're having a great summer. How
could it be better? It doesn'tget any more fun than this. Oh
(18:52):
wow, life is interesting right now, especially if you're in politics. There
is so much to talk about.Well, let me ask you about this,
Heidie, because I I know youtweeted on this. I follow you
on Twitter, and Governor Polis hashad two very odd tweets in the last
day, one of which he hadto know would come across as very elitist
and snobbish. I have my owntheory on why he's done that. He's
(19:14):
just put out the second tweet,this one that you had commented on.
Polis writes, none of my intelligentone thirty plus IQ friends use x slash
Twitter. They only read accurate,vetted news sources and almost never use social
media spontaneously on their own time.This has been a long term, consistent
observation, but today confirmation came.Then he cited some purported study to show
(19:37):
that as your IQ goes up,your Twitter use goes down. And then
the one today that just came outa few minutes ago. Personally, I
love participating in the x slash Twittercommunity and applaud the strong, virile leadership
of at Elon Musk. And thenhe posts a picture of the Simpsons right,
and I for one welcome our newinsect overlords. And it shows an
(20:00):
insect beating some human with a whip. So what do you make of that
one? He is off the rails. I mean, I know he's quirky,
and there's probably some undertones to hislove of comics and anime all that
stuff, but I don't think he'sconnecting with the common every DIGITUARI. Maybe
(20:22):
that makes us low IQ. No, Heidi come on. Are you suggesting
that the legalization of marijuana and Coloradois personal for the governor? Oh my
goodness, what cracks me up ashe says he's never tried it. Have
you heard that? No? No, I don't know if he's a podcast
A couple of weeks ago, wealso, I guess it maybe just didn't
(20:45):
inhale. Yeah, do you wantto hear my theory on this and then
tell me if you think I'm offmy rocker. But my theory on this
is twofold. My lead theory isthat this is a desperate, groveling,
pasthetic, obvious play for attention ofElon Musk, just hoping that Elon Musk
(21:07):
responds and boost Poulis's profile. Theother related possibility is the first tweet anyway,
is that he's expecting, as hee now attemptstander the presidential race as
soon as Biden's out. He's expectingsome negative stories on Twitter, and he's
trying to get out ahead. Butwhat's your theory? I think paulus from
getting to know him behind the scenes, because we did have conversations and interactions
(21:32):
a lot as we were waiting togo on the debate stage or with our
team lots of different situations where itwas so awkward. Dan, he is
so awkward, and he is soarrogant and thinks he's so much better than
the rest of us, especially merunning against him. That I think that
was a one of the reasons whyit was easy. Not easy, but
we were able to go up againsthim in the debate because he was so
(21:56):
confident that he was going to justdestroy me, and we leveraged that arrogance
and that overconfidence. And he doesthat in lots of situations, and he
comes off, as you know,very elitist and just untouchable. And I
think he's showing his true colors.That's what I said on Twitter. This
is how he is behind the scenes, and thirty million dollars in TV ads
(22:19):
and flyers and a media that justnow, yeah, kisses his real end
won't show that side of him.And it's going to be interesting to see
if he does enter the presidential racehow quickly that gets exposed. No,
and Heidigan all our guest. Ithink if every coloradden had seen even one
of those debates, you'd be ourgovernor. But obviously that's not the way
the media works. And he's gotthe money to swamp that, but you
(22:41):
just threshed to meet end every time. So now let me ask you this
question, Heidi, and we willget to our jam lines, But Heidi
Ganal and the website Rocky Mountain Voice, what will it take for Colorado GOP
to win statewide again? In amore precise question, this cannibalism that we're
(23:03):
seeing, long overdue and very deservedcannibalism we're seen among the left right now
nationally, will that help open thedoor? I know we don't have the
big state wide races this year,but will that help open the door to
actually winning statewide in a couple ofyears? Well, Dan flow and deliberate
in helping every individual grassroots group getbetter and stronger and doing it on a
(23:29):
very local basis where they're very connectedin their community, in their neighborhood,
and really just getting back to blockingand tackling and building relationships, and you
know, just kind of watching theleft and plode. Don't get involved,
don't get engaged, and even theshanigans in our own party just ignore it,
don't give it any attention. It'llprobably resolve itself and will come out
(23:51):
of the ashes, will be stronger, will be more connected at the community
level. We'll have a great wayto get our message out, whether it's
Dan Capitalist Koa or it's Rocky MountainVoice in our newsletter that's going out to
over one hundred thousand people. Nowthat's cool. That's cool. So we're
rebuilding from the bottom up. We'rebuilding a messaging platform, We're building a
wait for our candidates and our folksto get their message out. We're building
(24:15):
community again. We're rebuilding our grassrootsmovement, our conservative movement, one group
at a time, and we're alsoinvesting in really good data and technology on
the Road to Red and Rocky MountainVoice side so that we don't have to
start over every two years, whichis a big mistake we make in car
out of politics. So it's justfundamentals, and so we're working on all
(24:36):
of that behind the scenes with likefifty different grassroots groups around the state,
and we're ignoring all the drama andjust rolling up our sleeves and building relationships
again in our community. Well,I am really glad you're doing it.
Our friend George Brockler just texting me. He said, some guys get together
to play golf, others to drinkbeer and watch sports. Paul Us and
his buddies sit around and take IQtests. Who are these people? It
(25:00):
sounds like that was your experience.All yeah, but you know, and
you're going to enjoy this, Heidi, not in a mean way, maybe
a little bit, but but butjust as with Bennett and Hick and Looper,
these guys who live in this littlemedia money bubble in Colorado and then
they believe to think that nothing stinksand they go out on the national stage
where guess what, They're not goingto have the protection of the media because
(25:22):
a lot of leftist media wants somebodyelse, and then all of a sudden
they get totally exposed and it isnot pretty. And that's what awaits Jared
Polis Well, I think it's goingto be interesting to watch what happens with
Fox News and some of the outletsthat have, yeah, Jared their moderate
Democrat or livery when it comes downto running in the actual race. And
(25:44):
then when he's finally competing against ourguys, are they going to stick with
him? Yeah? No, that'sright, because you're right. I think
it's standard preneur. I respect alot, except for this infatuation with Jared
Polis right. So Polis is thecandidate of freedom right, which means you're
free to do what Polus want wantsyou to do and nothing else. But
yeah, well, Heidi, thanksfor your time and all the great work
you're doing, and look forward tothe next visit. Well, thanks Dan,
(26:08):
thanks to you also, and yourlisteners are awesome. We have a
lot to look forward to in Colorado. I have hope that we're going to
turn this around. Let's let theDemocrats do their thing and implode, and
the more expensive it gets to livehere, the more dangerous it gets to
live here. Voters are going towake up and make different decisions, and
I think that starts in just afew months with the election this fall.
(26:30):
And let's enjoy the implosion, thecannibalism right now. I think we've earned
it, and you certainly have.So Heidi, talk to you soon.
Thank you, thank you. Okay, here's the game plan, Heidi ganaland
please do follow her on Twitter andRocky Mountain Voice. Everybody on the lines.
Thank you for your patience. Here'smy solemn promise to you, hanging
there through one break and short ofthe Good Lord coming down and appearing on
(26:56):
this next segment. I'm going straightto the phone lines, which means you're
on the Dan care Apples Show.And now back to the Dan Kaplas Show
podcast. I made clear publicly theday after the basis that came fort President
Joe Biden and the Democratic ticket.My position has not changed, but that's
(27:18):
Biden and the Democratic ticket. Tosupport Biden on the ticket or just Biden
and whatever the ticket is. Answer, we have a great president. And
this montage goes on and on,and all I can say is it's music
to my ears. Please hang inthere, Joey, hang in there.
I've never wanted to be wrong morein my life because some of the guy
(27:42):
who's been saying about Biden he's notgoing to be the nominee. He's not,
unfortunately come election day, but boycan you imagine if he was devastation
up and down the ticket. Soplease, Joey, every day you hang
in there, every day helps us, helps Trump defeat you, helps every
candidate defeat every Democrat. Let's goto the phone line, So start in
(28:03):
Fremont here on the Dan Kapla Show. Welcome, Chris. Hey you there,
Dan. I sure hope so,but if I'm not, this is
a great dream. Well, andI know how it ends. That brings
me to one thing that we don'thear enough on this show, and that's
(28:30):
behind the scenes. You know,there's many times when I'm on an airplane
or you're on your way down theinterstate or in a different city, for
crying out loud and Ryan and Kellyhold down the helm and I'm sure that
there's many and many others. Andall I wanted to say was thank them,
(28:56):
thank the people behind the scenes thatdon't be a credit as they should.
Well, thank you for that.And this is Chris Sholing. Yeah,
thank you, Chris, Chris,appreciate the call man. Thank you
for that one. And I hadnothing to do with that, and no,
I think he had presented a differenttopic to Kelly. Oh he did
put up there. But it's greatto have people care that much. And
(29:18):
hopefully you assure people that we expressour appreciation all the time here without question.
Yes, yes, when we're notdoing other things. But Matt in
Colorado springs here on the Dan KaplisShow. Welcome, Hello, Dan,
Hi Matt, thanks for bringing thetruth to our state. Thank you for
that. Longtime listener, first timecaller. Quick question about the ballot process
(29:45):
and someone still get on the ballot. Have any ballot deadline asks that would
prevent Yes from being replaced by someone? What a great question. Different states
or yeah, I know that Heritageis mounting a legal challenge at this point,
or preparing a legal challenge to tryto oppose changing out the candidate to
(30:08):
anybody but Biden in three particular states. I can't remember the three right now,
just based on particulars of those statesand those states laws. So yeah,
it's you know, when they doswitch, it's going to be fascinating
to see how those challenges work.Yeah, I'm just curious. Yeah,
(30:30):
deadlines passed and they can't get somebodyon there. Yeah, No, those
are going to be Yeah. Andas you probably know, Matt, and
thank you for the kind words.All over America right now, you have
a very very high level, wellfunded, well organized GOP legal effort underway
to try to make sure that stateshave to follow their own election laws.
(30:51):
And you also have this big pushin Congress now to make sure that folks
here illegally don't get to vote.The Democrats are opposing that push with everything
they have. Let's go to Larryand Thornton. You're on the Dan Kapla,
so welcome. Well, Dan,I'm sure you remember two years ago
at the before midterms, it seemslike all the conservative radio and TV talk
(31:15):
show hosts were saying, or saythey're expressing, that there was going to
be a Republican tsunami and what we'regoing to have, right, we were
going to have a super majority andare ran through our legislations and a lot
(31:36):
of conservatives, I know they arebusy, and then when it comes to
voting, if they're very confident,that they turn lazy and they don't vote.
I'm so glad you mentioned that,and I think the overconfidence prior to
the midterms was the reason we didnot get that tremendous turnout that we expected.
(31:57):
Boy, I'm telling you, Larry, what a brilliant point you make,
because I was thinking today driving overhere. You know what, there
is a real danger of over confidence. If Biden is actually going to stay
in this race, there is areal danger of over confidence on the part
of the right. So I'm gladyou mentioned that. My friend, I'm
with you. I'm concerned about that. You know, I think if what's
(32:20):
likely to happen happens and they havea different nominee. That's going to jolt
everybody out of this confidence bubble thatI think has surrounded Donald Trump right now,
which he's handling beautifully. I thinkhe's just handled it perfectly publicly.
But it's human nature, right ifenough people think the race is locked up,
but since it's likely to be adifferent candidate, then there are going
(32:43):
to be other reasons to be concerned. Because I will tell you right now,
all these tomahawks steaks I'm about towin because Biden's not going to be
their nominee. I will bet themall, and bet multiples of those tomahawks
that whoever the Democrat is is goingto soon be in the lead, and
that they're going to have a meaningfullead in the polling very quickly. It's
(33:05):
going to be a sugar high,I hope, and then it's going to
wear down. Now, keep itin mind that that historically Donald Trump has
outperformed the polls. I mean,at this point in twenty twenty, he
was what nine points behind Biden?Biden was nine points ahead, and we
all know how twenty twenty turned out. But yeah, any other Democrat living
or dead, they are going tobe leading in the polls soon after they
(33:29):
take over this race. I dothink that will disappear at five to five?
Is the five A two five five? The number? So many great
texts coming in, Dan, Idon't see how every day helps anymore for
Trump to be Biden. I stillthink with Malan voting, illegals voting in
other ways, Thems could still pullit out even with a feeble Biden.
(33:50):
What a great way to go intothe next segment. Is there any scenario
short of the obvious one? Rightif if Trump were to defeat Trump?
But there's no sign of that.If anything, this div elements seems to
be focusing him even further so assumingTrump doesn't beat Trump. Is there any
other way the Dems win the presidencywith Biden on the ballot? As unlikely
(34:13):
as that scenario is that he's onthe ballot, Is there any way they
win it? I do want totalk about that when we come back for
news. I don't think we coulddo it in the next thirty seconds.
Couldn't do it? Justice, Dan, what's the infatuation with Michelle? She
has literally zero experience. First,it's not my infatuation. I think she
would be a devastatingly bad president,devastatingly bad, even worse than her husband.
(34:37):
But if we're talking clear eyed andhonest about whether she'd have a very
real chance to win the presidency,absolutely, and why if that's what the
text goes to. We can talkabout that some more in the next hour.
But you look at the polling now, every other Democrat losing Trump,
Michelle Obama beating him by eleven inthe polling ay fib five or is there
(34:57):
a five A two five five?Let's hope she doesn't enter. You're on
the Dane Caplshow.
