Speaker 5 (02:05):
I can feel a good one coming on.
Speaker 4 (02:13):
We gonna get well, we're going into the following weekend.
We gonna keep this before election Day on Tuesday.
Speaker 3 (02:22):
My challenge to every pastor.
Speaker 4 (02:25):
Is, as the guests we had on earlier in the week,
tell how you're voting and why why wouldn't you? You know,
the term influencer is a very powerful term. Kim Kardashian
can move product. If she says I use this lipstick,
(02:47):
lots of women are gonna use that lipstick. She says
I wear this pair of shoes, or this is the
dress I wear, or this is the these are the
spanks I use, or this is the hair extension or
whatever else, because people look to her. Some people look
to her. It's a fact for beauty tips. That's why
(03:07):
after the super Bowl winner you get x amount. You
know in advance if you win the super Bowl, I'm
going to disney World and is a disney World at Disneyland.
Disney World, Yeah, in Florida. Because you know they've told you, Hey,
Tom Brady, if you say this, we'll give you a
check for this amount. Well, who cares where Tom Brady's
(03:30):
going a lot of people. A pastor is an influencer.
You look to your pastor for guidance. You might still
make decisions on your own, but a pastor is the
quintessential influencer. One of the things we look to a
(03:50):
pastor for is, hey, you are learned in the Bible.
Now long ago translated the Bible into common man language
so that everyone can read their own Bible. We don't
need some church prefect to tell us what the Word
of God is and is not. These letters from Paul
(04:14):
were written by a man in prison to the churches.
I think the common man can read it and should
for himself. But so I'm challenging you pastors. It's your
last chance to talk to your flaw before Tuesday. I'm
talking to you congregants. You're going to be at your
(04:36):
house of worship this Sunday. But people that trust you,
don't go in and bang them over the head. Don't
go in as shaming people because you're not going to
change him as vote. Say, hey, just sou know for
what it's worth, I voted for Trump. If you want
to know why, I'll be glad to tell you, and
I hope you will too.
Speaker 7 (04:59):
That's it.
Speaker 4 (05:00):
Do it in a way that's comfortable, it's accessible. Tell
your adult kids, tell your parents. Use this opportunity to
plan for Tuesday. How are you gonna help a lot
of people want to stand on the side of the
road and scream and holler. I don't know that that
changes anybody's opinion. How about you just go to get
(05:23):
two or three people and carry them to vote. How
about the people that you can influence. You're gonna wake
up Wednesday morning and you're gonna find out that people
that you know and love and care for did.
Speaker 3 (05:36):
Not vote, and you're gonna wish.
Speaker 4 (05:39):
I hope, I hope you're in a position that you
don't have to feel bad about it, because if we lose,
you will, you absolutely will. One programming note Tuesday night,
we're gonna do something we don't do a lot of,
and that is we're going to take calls. So between
now and Tuesday, if you want to send an email.
(06:02):
If you voted for Trump twice before, I expect you
voted for him again. But if you voted for Hillary
or Biden, if you're a black voter who's never voted
for a Republican, if you're a young voter who's never
voted before, If you're an immigrant who was told and
(06:22):
maybe even believed that Republicans hated you, if you have
an experience that you say, Look, if I'm to be
completely honest with you, I'm I'm surprised I voted for Trump.
I wouldn't have before. I didn't before I voted for
Biden a twenty years. Whatever your story was, I want
to hear that on Tuesday night. Our phone number. Put
(06:46):
this into your phone seven one three nine nine nine
one thousand. Seven one three nine nine nine one thousand.
And by the way, if you want to call any
time this weekend and leave us a message about your journey,
your experience, your perspective, start the call with.
Speaker 3 (07:05):
Your name and where you're from.
Speaker 4 (07:06):
You don't have to give your last name, so you
can say, I'm Susan in Sacramento and here's my opinion.
You can leave a voicemail for us anytime, and we
will play those. Well, we'll play some of those, probably
Monday night, and we may even on Tuesday night, though
(07:27):
I expect we're going to be a little overwhelmed with
calls them Tuesday, so but we will use those, and
we will and by the way, we use those all
the time. In fact, we use them on Friday shows
seven three, nine, one thousand, and you can call twenty
four hours a day and leave us a message. In fact,
when we get in every day every morning, we listen
to the messages from the night before, and we would
(07:50):
love to hear from you.
Speaker 3 (07:52):
Your opinion matters. You are not garbage.
Speaker 4 (07:56):
You arrived at this place after all so of hills
and valleys and ups and downs, whatever happened. You've been divorced,
you've been to prison, you opened a business and it failed.
You thought you were going to die, and you survived.
We love those because we love our fellow Americans.
Speaker 7 (08:19):
They remain scared to death of you, and they remain
scared to death of Trump.
Speaker 4 (08:23):
That Michael shows You're not going anywhere even if Trump does.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
You're not.
Speaker 3 (08:30):
Polls on votes. You understand that, but it's worth noting.
Speaker 4 (08:35):
It's worth noting the strengths and weaknesses of a poll,
and polls become less and less important as you get
closer to an election.
Speaker 3 (08:44):
Save and accept the trends that they show.
Speaker 4 (08:49):
If you're noticing a consistency across polling organizations and a
trend then the trend is what's important. So we have
noticed a steady trend. Trump is growing in popularity in
the polling data over a period of time, and that
has been consistent. That trend is bigger than any one pole,
(09:15):
any one question, how people answer it. Poles are always
lagging in time. If today Kamala Harris were to say
I hate every American, I wish they were all dead,
then the pole that comes out in ten minutes, that
(09:38):
was in the field as we say, the questions were
asked over the last three days and just came out
would not reflect this new development. So there's always a
lag in a poll, and that wouldn't matter if we
were in May or June. But right now, every day
is about a four hour block of maj your news,
(10:01):
and we're having blockbuster news, the likes of which would
have been one item of which would have swung a
campaign back in eighty or eighty four. But President Trump
serving up fries at McDonald's feels like a year ago.
But it's a matter of days. President Trump was shot
(10:22):
in the head in July. Joe Biden's debate was June
twenty seventh. That was the point where a lot of
people that weren't paying attention realized this guy might kill
over it any minute. He's on life support. They smothered
him shortly after and put Kamala in there. So dramatic
(10:44):
things are happening. So a poll at this point doesn't
reflect any big news and what's happening. The big news
the Democrats were hoping for was a guy that showed
up at Madison Square Garden. Nobody came for him. He
wasn't the draw. He has a very popular podcast called
(11:05):
kill Tony. I don't watch it, but Chad Knockinish, our
executive producer, does.
Speaker 3 (11:11):
It's a very guy dude bro show of a.
Speaker 4 (11:16):
Guy roasting people, kind of Yo, Mama Joe type of deals.
Speaker 3 (11:20):
He just insults people. You know, this is how you look.
Speaker 4 (11:23):
You're an idiot, You're you know, you couldn't do this.
It's a stick. It's okay, it's young guys talk to
each other that way. It doesn't mean anything. Should he
have been on the bill? I don't know, Probably not,
because if you don't know that's his stick, then you
don't take it in context. Look if if Dave Chappelle
(11:48):
showed up and Joe Rogan has made this point Dave
Chappelle showed up, you would assume, Okay, Dave Chappelle's going
to use the ndword, that's what he does. You would
understand that's his stick, that's what he does. But most
people didn't know kill Tony. You can have a very popular,
in fact, one of the most popular podcasts in the
(12:10):
world today, and ninety seven percent of people don't even
know your name. What Trump has managed to do is
to find these pockets of voters, the Ovonne Andrew Schultz,
Kill Tony who who represent an audience of people who
(12:30):
don't engage with CBSABC, NBC, for that matter, Fox, CNN.
But that doesn't mean they're low information. They carved out
their own lane in the same way sports radio people,
sports TV people do. Whoever invited kill Tony did it
(12:51):
with the best of intentions and hey, we're going.
Speaker 3 (12:53):
To have some laughs.
Speaker 4 (12:55):
Well, his style of humor is a very edgy style
of humor. Does that mean that Donald Trump thinks that
Puerto Rico is trash?
Speaker 3 (13:06):
No?
Speaker 4 (13:07):
Does it mean that Tony Hinchcliff thinks that Puerto Rico
is trash? No, It's called a joke. So there's a comedian.
I really like named Anthony jessel Nick, but he's brutal.
I wouldn't play that for my wife. My wife would
say turn that off. Or Doug Stanhope or Dave Chappelle.
(13:29):
My wife doesn't like the fact that he uses the
N word constantly. But look, I like Teddy Murphy and
Richard pryor most any of these comedians. That's what they do.
The Democrats tried to take that out of context because
they can't say, look, our administration has improved your life
(13:55):
and improved the standing of this country and improved the
standing of the world.
Speaker 3 (14:00):
They have to find a gotcha, that's what they do.
Speaker 4 (14:06):
Well, what it has meant as a result, what it
has meant is that they have they misfired because first
of all, the joke was about a floating mound of
trash out in the ocean, and the line was, yeah,
(14:28):
I think it's called Puerto Rico. And what's interesting is
that anybody, especially Puerto Ricans that know what's going on,
know that there have been for over five years, there's
a serious problem with trash in Puerto Rico. You've had
(14:49):
these storms that have come through and the country hasn't
disposed of the trash you have landfills that are overflowing.
There are spots in the country that are as matt.
Speaker 3 (15:02):
Danger.
Speaker 4 (15:04):
Puerto Ricans know that I didn't know it. You probably
didn't know it. So that joke was a kind of
joke that a Puerto Rican would tell in Puerto Rico.
Now you could say, well, you don't get to make
that joke, same way you know, you can't make a
joke about blacks unless you're black. But a lot of
(15:25):
people have a sense of humor. It doesn't mean you
hate each other, doesn't mean you hate yourself. It's a joke.
That's what jokes are. But people who can't joke, they
have no sense of humor. They are humorless. People who
(15:47):
cannot laugh because everything is offensive are miserable people.
Speaker 3 (15:55):
These are the people who.
Speaker 4 (15:56):
Drive past your house and you have a Trump sign
and they run and rip it out. These are the
kind of people that want businesses shut down to require
you to get a COVID shot. These are angry, miserable,
sad little imps, and everybody knows it. So Biden followed
that up with the only garbage is Trump.
Speaker 3 (16:16):
Supporters, and that blew up in their foot.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
When it comes to the economy.
Speaker 4 (16:21):
Do you believe Americans are better off than they were
four years ago?
Speaker 1 (16:25):
Mod called Barry so I was raised as a middle
class kid.
Speaker 3 (16:30):
I was talking about Poles.
Speaker 4 (16:33):
And you know, we've been using almost exclusively CNN audio,
which is amazing because we're not talking about conservative news.
We're talking about news that's pro Kamala, pro Biden, and
even they are having.
Speaker 3 (16:49):
To tell you how bad it is.
Speaker 4 (16:51):
So this is Harry Inton with CNN, and he says,
the incumbent party so in this case of Democrats have
never won a presidential race. When Americans respond to this question,
is the country heading in the right direction the way
they have in this election cycle?
Speaker 2 (17:10):
Listen to this.
Speaker 8 (17:12):
Just twenty eight percent of Americans voters think the country
is going in the right direction, is on the right track.
And I want you to put that into a historical
perspective for you. Okay, what's the average percentage of the
public that thinks that the country is on the right
track when the incumbent party loses.
Speaker 2 (17:29):
It's twenty five percent.
Speaker 8 (17:30):
That twenty five percent looks an awful bit like that
twenty eight percent up there.
Speaker 2 (17:34):
It doesn't look anything anything like this.
Speaker 8 (17:37):
Forty two percent doesn't look anything like this twenty eight percent.
Speaker 2 (17:40):
So the bottom line is, very few.
Speaker 8 (17:41):
Americans think the country is on the right track at
this particular point. It tracks much more with when the
incumbent party loses than with it wins.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
In fact, I went back through history.
Speaker 8 (17:49):
There isn't a single time in which twenty eight percent
of the American public thinks the country is going on
the right track in which the incumbent party actually won.
They always lose when just twenty eight percent of the
country believes that the country is on the right track.
Speaker 9 (18:01):
He's a heart You're swimming upstream if you're trying to
win in this environment. Also, President Biden, the micro level,
a lot of the covers today is over something President
Biden said. On the macro level. What kind of a
weight is he on the Harris campaign?
Speaker 8 (18:16):
Yeah, so you know, Joe Biden isn't on the ballot,
but he's certainly in the minds of Americans. Right, So
I went back and I looked, Okay, was the successor
of the same party when the president's net approval rating
was negative at this point, which Joe Biden's most definitely is.
He's fifteen points underwater. Now we don't know if Kamala
Harris is going to succeed Joe Biden, But we know
back in two thousand and eight George W. Bush, his
(18:37):
approval rating was down in the twenties. Did a Republican
succeed George W.
Speaker 2 (18:40):
Bush?
Speaker 6 (18:41):
No?
Speaker 8 (18:41):
How about in nineteen sixty eight Lyndon Baines Johnson, his
net approval rating was negative. Did a Democrat succeed Lyndon
Bange Johnson?
Speaker 9 (18:47):
No?
Speaker 2 (18:48):
How about in fifty two Harry S.
Speaker 8 (18:49):
Truman, his approval rating was in the twenties, if not
the upper teens. Did a Democrat succeed Harry A. Is
Truman in fifty two? My memory No, No, As Kate
Baldwins has Diana Diana's episode close one time of the year,
Dwight Eisenhower, a Republican succeeded Harry S.
Speaker 2 (19:06):
Truman. So the bottom line is for Kamal Harris.
Speaker 8 (19:08):
To win, she'd have to break history be a Democrat
to succeed Joe Biden. When Biden's approval rating is way
underwater at this figet.
Speaker 9 (19:14):
It could happen. It just dozen in recent history for sure. Okay,
registration numbers here.
Speaker 8 (19:20):
Yeah, Republicans have been registered voters in big, huge numbers.
They have been gaining in party registration versus the Democrats
in the swing states with party registration.
Speaker 2 (19:30):
We're talking Arizona.
Speaker 8 (19:31):
I think it's a five point They've expanded their lead
from five points from where it was back in twenty twenty.
How about Nevada, Big Republican registrations there, they liked.
Speaker 2 (19:38):
The early vote.
Speaker 8 (19:38):
How about North Carolina, big Republican registration games. How about Pennsylvania,
we spoke about it before a few months ago.
Speaker 2 (19:44):
Big Republican party.
Speaker 8 (19:45):
Registration gains versus from where they were four years ago.
So Republicans are putting more Republicans than the electorate. The
Democratic number versus the Republican number has shrunk. And so
the bottom line is, if Republicans win, come next week,
Donald Trump wins comes next week, all along will have
been obvious. We would look at the right direction being
very low, Joe Biden's approval rating being very low, and
(20:05):
Republicans really registering numbers.
Speaker 2 (20:08):
You can't say you weren't born.
Speaker 4 (20:09):
I go back to twenty twelve, when Romney lost to Obama.
Nobody believed that Obama would win. Obama's numbers for a
sitting president running for reelection were below fifty percent. Nobody
had ever won reelection with those numbers. Now, there are
a number of things that happened, but one of the
(20:30):
things that hurt at that point, there was an exit
poll done and the question of two questions. One was
who would do better with the economy, and I think
it was Romney fifty five to forty five.
Speaker 3 (20:46):
He won that.
Speaker 4 (20:48):
But the other one was who would you most want
to have a beer with? And it was Obama fifty
five to forty five. As it turned out, people voted
more for who that want to have a beer with
than who would handle the economy. Some people make bad decisions,
you know, just the way it is. Kamala has lost
(21:13):
this year's Who would You Want to have a Beer with?
The cackle, the creepiness, the weirdness her husband or vice president,
and Trump has been humanized all these podcasts, all these
sit downs, the garbage truck, the McDonald's. No matter what
(21:36):
they say about him, you're getting the sense that this
is a guy who you'd kind of like to be around.
This is a guy who understands you. And JD Vance
even more so the Joe Rogan interview. This is a
very relatable guy. Go watch the Theo vonn interview. Is
(22:00):
a very relatable guy. Sure he's super smart, but he's
somebody that you know. You could have a conversation with
Tim Wattz. You wouldn't want him near your kids. And
what you're seeing now is you're seeing that people are
reveling in the thought of Kamala being gone. This was
(22:24):
on a cruise ship. I thought I'd share it with you.
Speaker 6 (22:31):
Then have changed the games the same lord gear around
the beginning this game, Kama Loves go in on? The
crime is high. They sold my car. You should have
been a bit of borders are Kama Loves go in on?
(23:00):
Crook send much you left to South?
Speaker 10 (23:02):
Yeah the end, A set had died, kids lost in
fasting for time, a bunch every and tried. You told
me last since you made frist Now I can't wait
to say it.
Speaker 6 (23:20):
Bye.
Speaker 3 (23:23):
I'm a lot us.
Speaker 2 (23:24):
Go in home. You curse the right.
Speaker 6 (23:29):
You could be wrong. It's been four years.
Speaker 10 (23:33):
It's been so long.
Speaker 6 (23:37):
Come I lest going home.
Speaker 2 (23:41):
We're gonna vote for Trump.
Speaker 6 (23:43):
We're gonna send you home. We gotta rise before we fall.
Speaker 3 (23:49):
I'm gonna use this boat.
Speaker 6 (23:51):
And Pa can't stand a bore of y'all.
Speaker 10 (23:57):
I've seen your face a millions.
Speaker 3 (24:04):
In time.
Speaker 6 (24:05):
Ts. Yeah, y'all. She telling me just.
Speaker 2 (24:17):
Come cor Les, go in home.
Speaker 3 (24:26):
You go see her.
Speaker 6 (24:33):
Drop twenty four.
Speaker 3 (24:34):
Hellboy, it was four weeks from two days ago. Not
so long. It's four weeks that.
Speaker 4 (24:50):
The nation met jd Vance, really met jd Vance. When
jd ran for the Senate in Ohio, I had read
Hillbilly Elogy before he ran for office. I read it
because someone recommended it, and I thought it was wonderful.
I thought he had done a wonderful job. I didn't
(25:11):
know anything about him, and then when he started running,
I thought, oh, they're parlaying his popularity from that into
a Senate run. This is going to be like doctor
Oz is going to be a huge mistake. But then
I started researching him. Very successful investor, he's a deeply
(25:34):
committed conservative. He's a husband, he's a father, And I
think something at fifty three that I didn't think it
thirty three was married but didn't have kids. I really
didn't understand the importance of the nuclear family and how
that changes a man. I don't think it changes a woman
(25:54):
as well, in a different way. But I think having
children really changes you dramatically. Kamala Harris has never raised children.
Her husband Doug had a fifteen and twenty year old
when they got together, and those kids never lived in
the house under them. That doesn't make her a bad person.
(26:16):
It does mean that she lacks an experience that I
think is important. But I forgot, I forgot to play
you the highlights of the JD Vance and Joe Rogan interview.
So what I'm gonna do is, since I've kind of
messed up and I did want to share these. They
told Americans that JD Vance was weird because that's how
(26:39):
they were going to overcome Tim Waltz being so weird,
sasheting out, kicking his legs up, jazz hand ye, the
creepy China connection, the creepy weird vibes you get with him.
You'd never leave your child in a room alone with him,
especially not a little boy. But I'm just gonna I'm
just gonna close out the show this week. Wish you
a great weekend, see you back on Monday. And here
(27:05):
were what I consider some of the highlights of the
jd Vance Joe Rogan interview. Feel free to share our show.
We will have a Saturday podcast. By the way, it's
a good one is Thomas Soul.
Speaker 2 (27:16):
It's really good.
Speaker 3 (27:18):
But let's close with that.
Speaker 7 (27:19):
He told me that he was talking to the gardener
at Mar a Lago about who the who the vice
posential nominee should be. And that's one I think Trump's
sort of political geniuses. He talks to everybody about everything.
And I was like, well, what the car would the
gardener at mar Largo have to say about this conversation
because this really directly impacts my life, and you know,
(27:40):
he basically said, well, I think I'm probably going to
pick you, but I don't know, and I'm not ready
to make a decision. And then he looks at one
of his staff members, Susan in the Room's like, actually,
wouldn't it really set the world ablaze if we just
made the decision today? And so why don't you come
up with me and we'll just do the announcement in Butler, Pennsylvania. Well,
and I and of course, not knowing at the time
(28:01):
what was going to happen, I was like, absolutely, let's
get this over with because I'm sick of not knowing.
Let's just get this thing over with and then he's like, ah, no,
I'm not gonna I'm not gonna do it up there.
We need to prepare for it better. So look, I'm
not saying it's gonna be you, but I'm thinking very
seriously about it.
Speaker 3 (28:15):
Have fun.
Speaker 7 (28:16):
We'll see after Butler pa And then of course I
go back to home to Ohio. He gets shot. You know,
the initial reaction is I actually thought they had killed him,
because when you first see the video, he grabs his
ear and then he goes down and I'm like, oh
my god, they just killed him. And I was so
I mean, I was so pissed. But then I go
into like fight or flight mode with my kids. I'm like,
(28:37):
you know, our kids. You know, we were at a
we were at a mini golf place in Cincinnati, Ohio.
Grab my kids up, throw them in the car, go
home and load all my guns and basically stand like
a century our front door. That was my That was
sort of my reaction to it. Anyway, I really didn't
know it was gonna happen until Monday morning. I didn't
know who else was being selected. I think it was
(28:58):
all the names that people sort of see out there.
This is this is where I always get pissed about
the media conversation around what happened in twenty twenty. Is
what they'll do is they'll they'll sort of find the
craziest conspiracy theory about what happened in twenty twenty. They'll
debunk it and say, oh, look this thing, this shows
(29:18):
that nothing bad happened in twenty twenty. There's a non
part of an organization that actually looked at what would
have happened to Americans votes if they had just known
the truth about the fact that Joe Biden fundamentally had
traded his political influence for money. Like that's what it was.
It's an old fashioned American corruption story. I will give
you access to powerful people in exchange for money, right.
(29:38):
That was the true scandal of the Hunter Biden laptop. Again,
it wasn't Hunter Biden doing cocaine with a stripper. That
was the fun part. You can say that I have
an election to win, So that was the real scanruption.
It was the corruption and the corruptions and direct evidence
the corruption, and a non partisan organization say that knowledge
(30:02):
which was suppressed by the entire American media and big
tech scene. That would have changed millions upon millions of votes,
and we know that the number in four swing states
was eighty eight thousand votes. That were the difference between
Donald Trump and Joe Biden winning the twenty twenty election.
So set to the side all of the other arguments
about fraud and all the other rule changes that happen
in the midst of COVID, we know that big tech
(30:25):
colluded with our own sort of I would say colluded.
The one thing I'll say about Zuckerberg is and like,
I don't know them super well. I've never had a
problem with them, but I do wonder if it's a
convenient excuse. I don't doubt that the FBI said, hey,
this is Russian disinformation, but these companies still have to
take some agency over this too. So I think it
was both the corruption of the FBI and the intelligence services,
(30:46):
but also the big technology companies themselves. Both of them
aren't blame, and I think fundamentally, if they had not
done what they did, Donald Trump would have one another
term as president of United States. You're never going to
be able to convince me that if millions upon millions
of Swing voters knew the evidence of Joe Biden's corruption
and it was staring them in the face that we would.
Speaker 3 (31:06):
Not have been able to pull that one out.
Speaker 7 (31:08):
You, of course, I'm sure paid attention to the kerfuffle
over a comedian at the Trump rally, MSG.
Speaker 2 (31:16):
I think you even know this guy, right, it's a
good friend.
Speaker 7 (31:18):
Okay, So he tells a joke about, you know, Puerto Rico.
The number of mentions on CNN about this joke in
the last forty eight hours this was as of last night,
one hundred and forty three on MSNBC one hundred and
one on ABC fifty three, on NBC thirty two, and
on CBS thirty one. In two days, they talked about
(31:41):
that joke effectively NonStop. You know what it means to
have thirty one mentions on NBC News about this particular
thing that is a crazy that is saturation. Last night,
Joe Biden called the half of America that's going to
vote for Donald Trump garbage. Do you think that the
word garbae is going to appear on CNN one hundred
(32:01):
and forty one times over the next two days. I
would bet no. Now what's the difference, Well, one difference
is that it was a comedian telling a joke and
it's the president of the United States telling what he
actually thinks. Another difference is, again it is a comedian
with at best a tenuous connection to the Trump campaign.
Speaker 3 (32:19):
And on the other hand.
Speaker 7 (32:20):
You have the actual sitting president at a vice presidential
campaign event, telling the vice president sorry, telling the entire
country at an event sanctioned by the Kamala Harris campaign that.
Speaker 2 (32:35):
Half of Americans are garbage.
Speaker 7 (32:37):
And I guarantee the media is not going to cover
this in the same way.
Speaker 3 (32:40):
Els has d. Thank you, good night,
It's that time, time, time, time, lucking load. The Michael
Varry Show is on the air.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
It's Charlie from BlackBerry Smoke. I can feel a good
one coming on.
Speaker 3 (00:25):
It's the Michael Berry Show.
Speaker 4 (00:27):
Any attempt to restrict drinking and driving gear is viewed.
Speaker 3 (00:30):
By some as downright undemocratics.
Speaker 5 (00:33):
Two six packs, Shinner not a nine sid putine ladder,
Lukis track center, fifth of patrol us down Eddie Blue Cooler,
take a guess at all the door. I can feel
a good one coming off home, throwing away wild Hubbard
(01:00):
sing along to Red Deck Mother any blues I had before,
or gone.
Speaker 3 (01:08):
Another working week over no Chu saying so I can
feel a good.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
One coming on.
Speaker 6 (01:19):
Yeah, Wen, we gonna get the feeling ride.
Speaker 2 (01:25):
We gonna keep this spider.
Speaker 5 (01:27):
I can feel the break of doll. Yeah, I can
feel a good one coming on.
Speaker 4 (01:36):
I just gotta get calling this one. But I can't
put in a hard day's work, put in eleven foelve hours, baby,
and they ain't getting you drunk in the last right
one or two beers.
Speaker 3 (01:47):
Three blocks in the rack.
Speaker 5 (01:48):
Top Mustang followed us down to the lake and didn't
have to think about that too long. Skinny, the moon out.
Speaker 2 (02:02):
The situation couldn't be more.
Speaker 5 (02:05):
I can feel a good one coming on.
Speaker 4 (02:13):
We gonna get well, we're going into the following weekend.
We gonna keep this before election Day on Tuesday.
Speaker 3 (02:22):
My challenge to every pastor.
Speaker 4 (02:25):
Is, as the guests we had on earlier in the week,
tell how you're voting and why why wouldn't you? You know,
the term influencer is a very powerful term. Kim Kardashian
can move product. If she says I use this lipstick,
(02:47):
lots of women are gonna use that lipstick. She says
I wear this pair of shoes, or this is the
dress I wear, or this is the these are the
spanks I use, or this is the hair extension or
whatever else, because people look to her. Some people look
to her. It's a fact for beauty tips. That's why
(03:07):
after the super Bowl winner you get x amount. You
know in advance if you win the super Bowl, I'm
going to disney World and is a disney World at Disneyland.
Disney World, Yeah, in Florida. Because you know they've told you, Hey,
Tom Brady, if you say this, we'll give you a
check for this amount. Well, who cares where Tom Brady's
(03:30):
going a lot of people. A pastor is an influencer.
You look to your pastor for guidance. You might still
make decisions on your own, but a pastor is the
quintessential influencer. One of the things we look to a
(03:50):
pastor for is, hey, you are learned in the Bible.
Now long ago translated the Bible into common man language
so that everyone can read their own Bible. We don't
need some church prefect to tell us what the Word
of God is and is not. These letters from Paul
(04:14):
were written by a man in prison to the churches.
I think the common man can read it and should
for himself. But so I'm challenging you pastors. It's your
last chance to talk to your flaw before Tuesday. I'm
talking to you congregants. You're going to be at your
(04:36):
house of worship this Sunday. But people that trust you,
don't go in and bang them over the head. Don't
go in as shaming people because you're not going to
change him as vote. Say, hey, just sou know for
what it's worth, I voted for Trump. If you want
to know why, I'll be glad to tell you, and
I hope you will too.
Speaker 7 (04:59):
That's it.
Speaker 4 (05:00):
Do it in a way that's comfortable, it's accessible. Tell
your adult kids, tell your parents. Use this opportunity to
plan for Tuesday. How are you gonna help a lot
of people want to stand on the side of the
road and scream and holler. I don't know that that
changes anybody's opinion. How about you just go to get
(05:23):
two or three people and carry them to vote. How
about the people that you can influence. You're gonna wake
up Wednesday morning and you're gonna find out that people
that you know and love and care for did.
Speaker 3 (05:36):
Not vote, and you're gonna wish.
Speaker 4 (05:39):
I hope, I hope you're in a position that you
don't have to feel bad about it, because if we lose,
you will, you absolutely will. One programming note Tuesday night,
we're gonna do something we don't do a lot of,
and that is we're going to take calls. So between
now and Tuesday, if you want to send an email.
(06:02):
If you voted for Trump twice before, I expect you
voted for him again. But if you voted for Hillary
or Biden, if you're a black voter who's never voted
for a Republican, if you're a young voter who's never
voted before, If you're an immigrant who was told and
(06:22):
maybe even believed that Republicans hated you, if you have
an experience that you say, Look, if I'm to be
completely honest with you, I'm I'm surprised I voted for Trump.
I wouldn't have before. I didn't before I voted for
Biden a twenty years. Whatever your story was, I want
to hear that on Tuesday night. Our phone number. Put
(06:46):
this into your phone seven one three nine nine nine
one thousand. Seven one three nine nine nine one thousand.
And by the way, if you want to call any
time this weekend and leave us a message about your journey,
your experience, your perspective, start the call with.
Speaker 3 (07:05):
Your name and where you're from.
Speaker 4 (07:06):
You don't have to give your last name, so you
can say, I'm Susan in Sacramento and here's my opinion.
You can leave a voicemail for us anytime, and we
will play those. Well, we'll play some of those, probably
Monday night, and we may even on Tuesday night, though
(07:27):
I expect we're going to be a little overwhelmed with
calls them Tuesday, so but we will use those, and
we will and by the way, we use those all
the time. In fact, we use them on Friday shows
seven three, nine, one thousand, and you can call twenty
four hours a day and leave us a message. In fact,
when we get in every day every morning, we listen
to the messages from the night before, and we would
(07:50):
love to hear from you.
Speaker 3 (07:52):
Your opinion matters. You are not garbage.
Speaker 4 (07:56):
You arrived at this place after all so of hills
and valleys and ups and downs, whatever happened. You've been divorced,
you've been to prison, you opened a business and it failed.
You thought you were going to die, and you survived.
We love those because we love our fellow Americans.
Speaker 7 (08:19):
They remain scared to death of you, and they remain
scared to death of Trump.
Speaker 4 (08:23):
That Michael shows You're not going anywhere even if Trump does.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
You're not.
Speaker 3 (08:30):
Polls on votes. You understand that, but it's worth noting.
Speaker 4 (08:35):
It's worth noting the strengths and weaknesses of a poll,
and polls become less and less important as you get
closer to an election.
Speaker 3 (08:44):
Save and accept the trends that they show.
Speaker 4 (08:49):
If you're noticing a consistency across polling organizations and a
trend then the trend is what's important. So we have
noticed a steady trend. Trump is growing in popularity in
the polling data over a period of time, and that
has been consistent. That trend is bigger than any one pole,
(09:15):
any one question, how people answer it. Poles are always
lagging in time. If today Kamala Harris were to say
I hate every American, I wish they were all dead,
then the pole that comes out in ten minutes, that
(09:38):
was in the field as we say, the questions were
asked over the last three days and just came out
would not reflect this new development. So there's always a
lag in a poll, and that wouldn't matter if we
were in May or June. But right now, every day
is about a four hour block of maj your news,
(10:01):
and we're having blockbuster news, the likes of which would
have been one item of which would have swung a
campaign back in eighty or eighty four. But President Trump
serving up fries at McDonald's feels like a year ago.
But it's a matter of days. President Trump was shot
(10:22):
in the head in July. Joe Biden's debate was June
twenty seventh. That was the point where a lot of
people that weren't paying attention realized this guy might kill
over it any minute. He's on life support. They smothered
him shortly after and put Kamala in there. So dramatic
(10:44):
things are happening. So a poll at this point doesn't
reflect any big news and what's happening. The big news
the Democrats were hoping for was a guy that showed
up at Madison Square Garden. Nobody came for him. He
wasn't the draw. He has a very popular podcast called
(11:05):
kill Tony. I don't watch it, but Chad Knockinish, our
executive producer, does.
Speaker 3 (11:11):
It's a very guy dude bro show of a.
Speaker 4 (11:16):
Guy roasting people, kind of Yo, Mama Joe type of deals.
Speaker 3 (11:20):
He just insults people. You know, this is how you look.
Speaker 4 (11:23):
You're an idiot, You're you know, you couldn't do this.
It's a stick. It's okay, it's young guys talk to
each other that way. It doesn't mean anything. Should he
have been on the bill? I don't know, Probably not,
because if you don't know that's his stick, then you
don't take it in context. Look if if Dave Chappelle
(11:48):
showed up and Joe Rogan has made this point Dave
Chappelle showed up, you would assume, Okay, Dave Chappelle's going
to use the ndword, that's what he does. You would
understand that's his stick, that's what he does. But most
people didn't know kill Tony. You can have a very popular,
in fact, one of the most popular podcasts in the
(12:10):
world today, and ninety seven percent of people don't even
know your name. What Trump has managed to do is
to find these pockets of voters, the Ovonne Andrew Schultz,
Kill Tony who who represent an audience of people who
(12:30):
don't engage with CBSABC, NBC, for that matter, Fox, CNN.
But that doesn't mean they're low information. They carved out
their own lane in the same way sports radio people,
sports TV people do. Whoever invited kill Tony did it
(12:51):
with the best of intentions and hey, we're going.
Speaker 3 (12:53):
To have some laughs.
Speaker 4 (12:55):
Well, his style of humor is a very edgy style
of humor. Does that mean that Donald Trump thinks that
Puerto Rico is trash?
Speaker 3 (13:06):
No?
Speaker 4 (13:07):
Does it mean that Tony Hinchcliff thinks that Puerto Rico
is trash? No, It's called a joke. So there's a comedian.
I really like named Anthony jessel Nick, but he's brutal.
I wouldn't play that for my wife. My wife would
say turn that off. Or Doug Stanhope or Dave Chappelle.
(13:29):
My wife doesn't like the fact that he uses the
N word constantly. But look, I like Teddy Murphy and
Richard pryor most any of these comedians. That's what they do.
The Democrats tried to take that out of context because
they can't say, look, our administration has improved your life
(13:55):
and improved the standing of this country and improved the
standing of the world.
Speaker 3 (14:00):
They have to find a gotcha, that's what they do.
Speaker 4 (14:06):
Well, what it has meant as a result, what it
has meant is that they have they misfired because first
of all, the joke was about a floating mound of
trash out in the ocean, and the line was, yeah,
(14:28):
I think it's called Puerto Rico. And what's interesting is
that anybody, especially Puerto Ricans that know what's going on,
know that there have been for over five years, there's
a serious problem with trash in Puerto Rico. You've had
(14:49):
these storms that have come through and the country hasn't
disposed of the trash you have landfills that are overflowing.
There are spots in the country that are as matt.
Speaker 3 (15:02):
Danger.
Speaker 4 (15:04):
Puerto Ricans know that I didn't know it. You probably
didn't know it. So that joke was a kind of
joke that a Puerto Rican would tell in Puerto Rico.
Now you could say, well, you don't get to make
that joke, same way you know, you can't make a
joke about blacks unless you're black. But a lot of
(15:25):
people have a sense of humor. It doesn't mean you
hate each other, doesn't mean you hate yourself. It's a joke.
That's what jokes are. But people who can't joke, they
have no sense of humor. They are humorless. People who
(15:47):
cannot laugh because everything is offensive are miserable people.
Speaker 3 (15:55):
These are the people who.
Speaker 4 (15:56):
Drive past your house and you have a Trump sign
and they run and rip it out. These are the
kind of people that want businesses shut down to require
you to get a COVID shot. These are angry, miserable,
sad little imps, and everybody knows it. So Biden followed
that up with the only garbage is Trump.
Speaker 3 (16:16):
Supporters, and that blew up in their foot.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
When it comes to the economy.
Speaker 4 (16:21):
Do you believe Americans are better off than they were
four years ago?
Speaker 1 (16:25):
Mod called Barry so I was raised as a middle
class kid.
Speaker 3 (16:30):
I was talking about Poles.
Speaker 4 (16:33):
And you know, we've been using almost exclusively CNN audio,
which is amazing because we're not talking about conservative news.
We're talking about news that's pro Kamala, pro Biden, and
even they are having.
Speaker 3 (16:49):
To tell you how bad it is.
Speaker 4 (16:51):
So this is Harry Inton with CNN, and he says,
the incumbent party so in this case of Democrats have
never won a presidential race. When Americans respond to this question,
is the country heading in the right direction the way
they have in this election cycle?
Speaker 2 (17:10):
Listen to this.
Speaker 8 (17:12):
Just twenty eight percent of Americans voters think the country
is going in the right direction, is on the right track.
And I want you to put that into a historical
perspective for you. Okay, what's the average percentage of the
public that thinks that the country is on the right
track when the incumbent party loses.
Speaker 2 (17:29):
It's twenty five percent.
Speaker 8 (17:30):
That twenty five percent looks an awful bit like that
twenty eight percent up there.
Speaker 2 (17:34):
It doesn't look anything anything like this.
Speaker 8 (17:37):
Forty two percent doesn't look anything like this twenty eight percent.
Speaker 2 (17:40):
So the bottom line is, very few.
Speaker 8 (17:41):
Americans think the country is on the right track at
this particular point. It tracks much more with when the
incumbent party loses than with it wins.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
In fact, I went back through history.
Speaker 8 (17:49):
There isn't a single time in which twenty eight percent
of the American public thinks the country is going on
the right track in which the incumbent party actually won.
They always lose when just twenty eight percent of the
country believes that the country is on the right track.
Speaker 9 (18:01):
He's a heart You're swimming upstream if you're trying to
win in this environment. Also, President Biden, the micro level,
a lot of the covers today is over something President
Biden said. On the macro level. What kind of a
weight is he on the Harris campaign?
Speaker 8 (18:16):
Yeah, so you know, Joe Biden isn't on the ballot,
but he's certainly in the minds of Americans. Right, So
I went back and I looked, Okay, was the successor
of the same party when the president's net approval rating
was negative at this point, which Joe Biden's most definitely is.
He's fifteen points underwater. Now we don't know if Kamala
Harris is going to succeed Joe Biden, But we know
back in two thousand and eight George W. Bush, his
(18:37):
approval rating was down in the twenties. Did a Republican
succeed George W.
Speaker 2 (18:40):
Bush?
Speaker 6 (18:41):
No?
Speaker 8 (18:41):
How about in nineteen sixty eight Lyndon Baines Johnson, his
net approval rating was negative. Did a Democrat succeed Lyndon
Bange Johnson?
Speaker 9 (18:47):
No?
Speaker 2 (18:48):
How about in fifty two Harry S.
Speaker 8 (18:49):
Truman, his approval rating was in the twenties, if not
the upper teens. Did a Democrat succeed Harry A. Is
Truman in fifty two? My memory No, No, As Kate
Baldwins has Diana Diana's episode close one time of the year,
Dwight Eisenhower, a Republican succeeded Harry S.
Speaker 2 (19:06):
Truman. So the bottom line is for Kamal Harris.
Speaker 8 (19:08):
To win, she'd have to break history be a Democrat
to succeed Joe Biden. When Biden's approval rating is way
underwater at this figet.
Speaker 9 (19:14):
It could happen. It just dozen in recent history for sure. Okay,
registration numbers here.
Speaker 8 (19:20):
Yeah, Republicans have been registered voters in big, huge numbers.
They have been gaining in party registration versus the Democrats
in the swing states with party registration.
Speaker 2 (19:30):
We're talking Arizona.
Speaker 8 (19:31):
I think it's a five point They've expanded their lead
from five points from where it was back in twenty twenty.
How about Nevada, Big Republican registrations there, they liked.
Speaker 2 (19:38):
The early vote.
Speaker 8 (19:38):
How about North Carolina, big Republican registration games. How about Pennsylvania,
we spoke about it before a few months ago.
Speaker 2 (19:44):
Big Republican party.
Speaker 8 (19:45):
Registration gains versus from where they were four years ago.
So Republicans are putting more Republicans than the electorate. The
Democratic number versus the Republican number has shrunk. And so
the bottom line is, if Republicans win, come next week,
Donald Trump wins comes next week, all along will have
been obvious. We would look at the right direction being
very low, Joe Biden's approval rating being very low, and
(20:05):
Republicans really registering numbers.
Speaker 2 (20:08):
You can't say you weren't born.
Speaker 4 (20:09):
I go back to twenty twelve, when Romney lost to Obama.
Nobody believed that Obama would win. Obama's numbers for a
sitting president running for reelection were below fifty percent. Nobody
had ever won reelection with those numbers. Now, there are
a number of things that happened, but one of the
(20:30):
things that hurt at that point, there was an exit
poll done and the question of two questions. One was
who would do better with the economy, and I think
it was Romney fifty five to forty five.
Speaker 3 (20:46):
He won that.
Speaker 4 (20:48):
But the other one was who would you most want
to have a beer with? And it was Obama fifty
five to forty five. As it turned out, people voted
more for who that want to have a beer with
than who would handle the economy. Some people make bad decisions,
you know, just the way it is. Kamala has lost
(21:13):
this year's Who would You Want to have a Beer with?
The cackle, the creepiness, the weirdness her husband or vice president,
and Trump has been humanized all these podcasts, all these
sit downs, the garbage truck, the McDonald's. No matter what
(21:36):
they say about him, you're getting the sense that this
is a guy who you'd kind of like to be around.
This is a guy who understands you. And JD Vance
even more so the Joe Rogan interview. This is a
very relatable guy. Go watch the Theo vonn interview. Is
(22:00):
a very relatable guy. Sure he's super smart, but he's
somebody that you know. You could have a conversation with
Tim Wattz. You wouldn't want him near your kids. And
what you're seeing now is you're seeing that people are
reveling in the thought of Kamala being gone. This was
(22:24):
on a cruise ship. I thought I'd share it with you.
Speaker 6 (22:31):
Then have changed the games the same lord gear around
the beginning this game, Kama Loves go in on? The
crime is high. They sold my car. You should have
been a bit of borders are Kama Loves go in on?
(23:00):
Crook send much you left to South?
Speaker 10 (23:02):
Yeah the end, A set had died, kids lost in
fasting for time, a bunch every and tried. You told
me last since you made frist Now I can't wait
to say it.
Speaker 6 (23:20):
Bye.
Speaker 3 (23:23):
I'm a lot us.
Speaker 2 (23:24):
Go in home. You curse the right.
Speaker 6 (23:29):
You could be wrong. It's been four years.
Speaker 10 (23:33):
It's been so long.
Speaker 6 (23:37):
Come I lest going home.
Speaker 2 (23:41):
We're gonna vote for Trump.
Speaker 6 (23:43):
We're gonna send you home. We gotta rise before we fall.
Speaker 3 (23:49):
I'm gonna use this boat.
Speaker 6 (23:51):
And Pa can't stand a bore of y'all.
Speaker 10 (23:57):
I've seen your face a millions.
Speaker 3 (24:04):
In time.
Speaker 6 (24:05):
Ts. Yeah, y'all. She telling me just.
Speaker 2 (24:17):
Come cor Les, go in home.
Speaker 3 (24:26):
You go see her.
Speaker 6 (24:33):
Drop twenty four.
Speaker 3 (24:34):
Hellboy, it was four weeks from two days ago. Not
so long. It's four weeks that.
Speaker 4 (24:50):
The nation met jd Vance, really met jd Vance. When
jd ran for the Senate in Ohio, I had read
Hillbilly Elogy before he ran for office. I read it
because someone recommended it, and I thought it was wonderful.
I thought he had done a wonderful job. I didn't
(25:11):
know anything about him, and then when he started running,
I thought, oh, they're parlaying his popularity from that into
a Senate run. This is going to be like doctor
Oz is going to be a huge mistake. But then
I started researching him. Very successful investor, he's a deeply
(25:34):
committed conservative. He's a husband, he's a father, And I
think something at fifty three that I didn't think it
thirty three was married but didn't have kids. I really
didn't understand the importance of the nuclear family and how
that changes a man. I don't think it changes a woman
(25:54):
as well, in a different way. But I think having
children really changes you dramatically. Kamala Harris has never raised children.
Her husband Doug had a fifteen and twenty year old
when they got together, and those kids never lived in
the house under them. That doesn't make her a bad person.
(26:16):
It does mean that she lacks an experience that I
think is important. But I forgot, I forgot to play
you the highlights of the JD Vance and Joe Rogan interview.
So what I'm gonna do is, since I've kind of
messed up and I did want to share these. They
told Americans that JD Vance was weird because that's how
(26:39):
they were going to overcome Tim Waltz being so weird,
sasheting out, kicking his legs up, jazz hand ye, the
creepy China connection, the creepy weird vibes you get with him.
You'd never leave your child in a room alone with him,
especially not a little boy. But I'm just gonna I'm
just gonna close out the show this week. Wish you
a great weekend, see you back on Monday. And here
(27:05):
were what I consider some of the highlights of the
jd Vance Joe Rogan interview. Feel free to share our show.
We will have a Saturday podcast. By the way, it's
a good one is Thomas Soul.
Speaker 2 (27:16):
It's really good.
Speaker 3 (27:18):
But let's close with that.
Speaker 7 (27:19):
He told me that he was talking to the gardener
at Mar a Lago about who the who the vice
posential nominee should be. And that's one I think Trump's
sort of political geniuses. He talks to everybody about everything.
And I was like, well, what the car would the
gardener at mar Largo have to say about this conversation
because this really directly impacts my life, and you know,
(27:40):
he basically said, well, I think I'm probably going to
pick you, but I don't know, and I'm not ready
to make a decision. And then he looks at one
of his staff members, Susan in the Room's like, actually,
wouldn't it really set the world ablaze if we just
made the decision today? And so why don't you come
up with me and we'll just do the announcement in Butler, Pennsylvania. Well,
and I and of course, not knowing at the time
(28:01):
what was going to happen, I was like, absolutely, let's
get this over with because I'm sick of not knowing.
Let's just get this thing over with and then he's like, ah, no,
I'm not gonna I'm not gonna do it up there.
We need to prepare for it better. So look, I'm
not saying it's gonna be you, but I'm thinking very
seriously about it.
Speaker 3 (28:15):
Have fun.
Speaker 7 (28:16):
We'll see after Butler pa And then of course I
go back to home to Ohio. He gets shot. You know,
the initial reaction is I actually thought they had killed him,
because when you first see the video, he grabs his
ear and then he goes down and I'm like, oh
my god, they just killed him. And I was so
I mean, I was so pissed. But then I go
into like fight or flight mode with my kids. I'm like,
(28:37):
you know, our kids. You know, we were at a
we were at a mini golf place in Cincinnati, Ohio.
Grab my kids up, throw them in the car, go
home and load all my guns and basically stand like
a century our front door. That was my That was
sort of my reaction to it. Anyway, I really didn't
know it was gonna happen until Monday morning. I didn't
know who else was being selected. I think it was
(28:58):
all the names that people sort of see out there.
This is this is where I always get pissed about
the media conversation around what happened in twenty twenty. Is
what they'll do is they'll they'll sort of find the
craziest conspiracy theory about what happened in twenty twenty. They'll
debunk it and say, oh, look this thing, this shows
(29:18):
that nothing bad happened in twenty twenty. There's a non
part of an organization that actually looked at what would
have happened to Americans votes if they had just known
the truth about the fact that Joe Biden fundamentally had
traded his political influence for money. Like that's what it was.
It's an old fashioned American corruption story. I will give
you access to powerful people in exchange for money, right.
(29:38):
That was the true scandal of the Hunter Biden laptop. Again,
it wasn't Hunter Biden doing cocaine with a stripper. That
was the fun part. You can say that I have
an election to win, So that was the real scanruption.
It was the corruption and the corruptions and direct evidence
the corruption, and a non partisan organization say that knowledge
(30:02):
which was suppressed by the entire American media and big
tech scene. That would have changed millions upon millions of votes,
and we know that the number in four swing states
was eighty eight thousand votes. That were the difference between
Donald Trump and Joe Biden winning the twenty twenty election.
So set to the side all of the other arguments
about fraud and all the other rule changes that happen
in the midst of COVID, we know that big tech
(30:25):
colluded with our own sort of I would say colluded.
The one thing I'll say about Zuckerberg is and like,
I don't know them super well. I've never had a
problem with them, but I do wonder if it's a
convenient excuse. I don't doubt that the FBI said, hey,
this is Russian disinformation, but these companies still have to
take some agency over this too. So I think it
was both the corruption of the FBI and the intelligence services,
(30:46):
but also the big technology companies themselves. Both of them
aren't blame, and I think fundamentally, if they had not
done what they did, Donald Trump would have one another
term as president of United States. You're never going to
be able to convince me that if millions upon millions
of Swing voters knew the evidence of Joe Biden's corruption
and it was staring them in the face that we would.
Speaker 3 (31:06):
Not have been able to pull that one out.
Speaker 7 (31:08):
You, of course, I'm sure paid attention to the kerfuffle
over a comedian at the Trump rally, MSG.
Speaker 2 (31:16):
I think you even know this guy, right, it's a
good friend.
Speaker 7 (31:18):
Okay, So he tells a joke about, you know, Puerto Rico.
The number of mentions on CNN about this joke in
the last forty eight hours this was as of last night,
one hundred and forty three on MSNBC one hundred and
one on ABC fifty three, on NBC thirty two, and
on CBS thirty one. In two days, they talked about
(31:41):
that joke effectively NonStop. You know what it means to
have thirty one mentions on NBC News about this particular
thing that is a crazy that is saturation. Last night,
Joe Biden called the half of America that's going to
vote for Donald Trump garbage. Do you think that the
word garbae is going to appear on CNN one hundred
(32:01):
and forty one times over the next two days. I
would bet no. Now what's the difference, Well, one difference
is that it was a comedian telling a joke and
it's the president of the United States telling what he
actually thinks. Another difference is, again it is a comedian
with at best a tenuous connection to the Trump campaign.
Speaker 3 (32:19):
And on the other hand.
Speaker 7 (32:20):
You have the actual sitting president at a vice presidential
campaign event, telling the vice president sorry, telling the entire
country at an event sanctioned by the Kamala Harris campaign that.
Speaker 2 (32:35):
Half of Americans are garbage.
Speaker 7 (32:37):
And I guarantee the media is not going to cover
this in the same way.
Speaker 3 (32:40):
Els has d. Thank you, good night,
