Speaker 2 (00:14):
Good afternoon, everyone. It's Heidi Ganaal filling in for Dan.
But guess what Dan's going to be back in the
next segment, and he said, let folks know I have
an epiphany regarding the presidential race that he cannot wait
to share.

Speaker 3 (00:28):
Oh, I know, and Ryan.

Speaker 2 (00:29):
Dan always makes me more optimistic about the race, Like
I come in here like a little dog.

Speaker 3 (00:33):
Oh my god, I know, I'm worried.

Speaker 2 (00:36):
It's like, don't worry, little bukaroo.

Speaker 3 (00:39):
It's all going to be okay.

Speaker 2 (00:40):
It's all going to be okay, especially if women get
their act together and realize that they're not voting in
their self interest if they vote for coame La.

Speaker 4 (00:50):
Come on, women, I know. So see what I said.
I sound like a jerk if you say it. Oh,
I might have to listen to that.

Speaker 2 (00:59):
It was to see Jared Polus and the Democrats try
and tag me as like a woman hater in the
governor's race. I'm like, I am a woman. I know
you don't understand what a woman it is on most days,
but I am a woman and I understand what it's
like to be a woman.

Speaker 4 (01:14):
And I have a diesel truck. What do you drive?

Speaker 3 (01:16):
Remember that?

Speaker 4 (01:17):
That was my favorite moment in the debates you guys had,
was the debate over whose truck was hemmy or whatever.
He was trying to say to you.

Speaker 2 (01:25):
Well, he was mad that I had a Tesla at
the time, I had a Tesla, but I also have
a gas guzzling Chevy Express mom van that has one
hundred and fifty thousand miles on it, and I think
he forgot about that. So that was fun.

Speaker 4 (01:38):
But then he was trying to twist it like he
drove an American gas guzzling truck, like he was trying
to outdo you or something on that word. And then
you were like, well, wait a minute, I thought you
were trying to go green energy. What are you doing here?

Speaker 2 (01:50):
Well, I'm going to shock you, Ryan. Today, a press
release went out from the Denverdom Friends League that actually,
Jared Polis and I are both sponsoring a ballot initiative
or supporting a ballot initiative that will be on the
ballot in a few weeks about yes, yes, what is
it pigs fly? Or that that's saying I'm terrible at saying.

(02:11):
So we both agree that Rule Colorado needs more veterinary providers,
and so this ballot initiative allows for a new classification
a provider called a veterinary basically a PA like a
physician's assistant in the veterinary world. Because I mean, there's
just such a shortage. And so you know how much

(02:33):
I love animals. I I don't agree with much of
anything with Jared Poul's period, but especially on his policies
around agriculture and ranching, et cetera. But we do both
love dogs. He is a cute little dog, and we
both agree that Rule Colorado needs more help in the
veterinary world.

Speaker 4 (02:49):
Can I suggest something? Yeah, kind of crazy? Why don't
you and Jared do a PSA television ad together and
support their proposal?

Speaker 3 (02:58):
Wouldn't be awesome?

Speaker 2 (02:59):
Oh gosh, that be both holding your dogs? Crazy? Uh, craziness.

Speaker 3 (03:04):
I think I like it, though, Well, pretty nice to you.

Speaker 2 (03:07):
Do you think we can find common ground somewhere some way?
It's right there somewhere someway. Okay, I want to make
a comment about the whole abortion issue and kind of
wrap that up, and I bet Dan has something to
say about this too. But there's some stats that I
put in my article that I wrote on the Rocky
Mountain Voice last week about the late term abortion issue

(03:27):
in Colorado, and not enough people are talking about this,
like we need to educate people in Colorado about how
extreme our policies are, especially with this on the ballot
in a few weeks to be put into our constitution.

Speaker 3 (03:41):
Not cool.

Speaker 2 (03:42):
So sixty nine percent of Americans support legal abortion in
the first trimester. I think that's what Jen said. She
said about seventy percent, and then a twenty twenty three
survey said that that support plummets for later stages and pregnancy,
so it drops to thirty seven percent for the second
trimester and only twenty two percent for the third trimester.
Those are the hardcore abortion lovers, so that's pretty significant.

(04:07):
Why would they gun so hard for third trimester abortion
as Democrats across this country if only twenty two percent
of Americans support that.

Speaker 4 (04:17):
My response to that is that they view this as
a slippery slope that if they give any ground on
abortion if they admit to Dan's point that he frequently makes,
and he's right that that's a human life and you're
killing it no matter when in the term it happens.
If they seed that ground on the third trimester, now
that's going to gain momentum. And I think Dan's right

(04:40):
on this too, to where you know what, I'm not
so sure I like it in the second trimester. Or
maybe the heartbeat law has a point because when Mary
called earlier, anybody that's actually seen an abortion procedure being
done video of that. Abby Johnson talks about this a lot.
She used to work for Planned Parenthood. She's a frequent
guest on this program. I people's tune change a whole

(05:01):
hell of a lot once they see exactly what happens
during an abortion. It's not this like nebulous thing. Oh,
it's just an abortion and the pregnancy ends and poof
there it goes like, no, here's what physically happens to
whatever you want to call it, embryo, fetus, baby in
the womb. It's crushed, it's destroyed, it's removed. Watch it.
I think you should have to watch one.

Speaker 2 (05:23):
And why don't these women just if they don't want
the child anymore, I get it. If there's a severe deformity,
the child's not gonna live, I don't get it. But
I can calculate the decision there a little bit, if
the baby's not gonna live or is there something very
seriously wrong. But if they simply don't want the baby,
give it up for adoption. Yes, give it up for adoption.

(05:46):
Why is that so hard? So then that ties back
to that survey that I told you about, the poll
that I told you about earlier in the hour or
last hour about glamour magazines take on what issues women
care about, and this elect and abortion was actually number seven.
That's crazy. That's not how they're pitching it. Women care
more about the economy and healthcare and the cost of housing,

(06:08):
and criminal justice, gun policy, foreign policy. But I do
think what you said about abortion and the slippery slope
is how we feel sometimes about gun rights and our
Second Amendment rights. It's like a slippery slope. They just
want to chip, chip, chip away at it, and so
maybe that's how they feel about it.

Speaker 4 (06:25):
It's the only explanation I can give, because I don't
think any sane person with a soul or a heart
can sit there and go, yeah, you know, a ninth
month abortion at any point, at any time, for any
reason or no reason at all, because that's what the
law says in Colorado. Heidi, you don't need a reason
in the ninth month. Now, they'll give you a reason,
Kyle Clark will well, it's only in extreme cases where
the babies deformed. Ever, I know, I know that's what

(06:47):
I'm saying. Like, well, Kyle point to that we're in
the law for Colorado that says, well, no, no, there's
restrictions on just exactly how or why you can get
an abortion in the ninth month. There are not There
are no restricts, there are no guardrails. If you find
a doctor Death that's willing to do it, you can
have it done.

Speaker 2 (07:06):
And we have our own doctor Death right here in Boulder, Colorado,
who's done forty thousand of these since nineteen seventy five.
And get this, he says that there should be no
they don't have to give a reason because pregnancy is dangerous.
It's inherently dangerous, and women have the right to kind
of opt out of it at any time. And so

(07:26):
I know several influencers recently have gotten on the phone
and called these clinics, and Isabelle Brown's one of them.
She's a friend of mine, dear girl, I love the girl.
She's an influencer follower on Instagram, and she called I
don't know if it was the bolder one. It could
have been, and they were like, yeah, we'll do it,
but it doesn't matter what week. You don't have to
give a reason, come on in, and then they talk

(07:49):
you through the process. Again. It's brutal, and I just
don't understand why people are all.

Speaker 4 (07:53):
Yeah, and again, just I'm a guy and I'm not
supposed to have an opinion, but here's my opinion. You know,
it's planned parenthood is parenthood, and if they come in
it should be a pro choice. Well, okay, here are
your choices. Why is the default choice for the left
always abort the thing? Not here are your choices, These
are the ramifications. You could keep it, and if you

(08:13):
do that means this it's nope, come on in, we'll
kill it. That's the policy of the left.

Speaker 2 (08:19):
Well, and I think this ties back to what Jennifer
brought up, how they're just lying about Trump's take on
the policies and he will not sign a national abortion band.
He's fairly moderate on abortion right. And I want you
to play clip number twenty four because there's so many
lies they're telling about Donald Trump and Republicans right now.

(08:40):
The list goes on and on. But he did a
good job of addressing this. On gut Field last night.

Speaker 5 (08:45):
They attacked the word the bloodbath that was referring to
the auto indussy. We know all these things. Yeah, Charlottesville
was totally debunked by everybody, including Laura. Laura did a
whole show on it, how it's so.

Speaker 6 (08:56):
Ridiculous, even Snoops, which is a left that's right, and said, yeah,
but all of them, and they didn't correct her once,
and they corrected me everything I said practically, and I
think nine times or eleven times.

Speaker 5 (09:09):
And the audience was absolutely they went crazy. And the
real I've thought it was I walked off. I said,
that was a great debate.

Speaker 3 (09:19):
I loved it.

Speaker 5 (09:19):
You know, you got a lot of people watching. I
guess we had seventy five million people watching something like that.
And you have to do well. You can't do badly.
For instance, Biden didn't do so well in the previous
debate because I had the two debates. I had one.
We actually had two debates, you know, I had one
against the man, and then they said he's not doing well,
take him out, put in a new one. And if
she doesn't do well, I wonder if they're going to

(09:40):
take her out. Just keep putting it. Let's see if
we can get it right eventually. No, but a thing
like that's never happened before.

Speaker 2 (09:47):
Oh, lies, lies, lies. Democrats are lying a lot lately. Anyway,
we are going to go to break. This is Heidi
covering for Dan Kaplis. He's going to be back right
after the break.

Speaker 3 (10:00):
And now back to the Dan Kaplas Show podcast.

Speaker 7 (10:03):
What's happening around the country right now is that the
millions and millions of illegals who've come across that border
since the borders are Kamala Harris and Joe Biden open
it wide. Is that some of them are trying to
register to participate in the election. Many of them. We
know six or seven states have already done their own audits.
They've proven you've got thousands and thousands of illegals on

(10:23):
the voter rolls right now. And here's the problem. You know,
if you have just a small percentage of those millions
of people they try to participate. You can throw the
outcome of the election.

Speaker 1 (10:33):
You've got speaker Mike Johnson eight five five for zero
five eight two five five text d An five seven
seven three nine Heidi ganall so great to see you.
Thank you for being here today.

Speaker 2 (10:44):
Of course, Dan very honored. You've got an incredible audience.
I love interacting with that.

Speaker 1 (10:49):
Oh man, it is awesome and thank you. It was
kind of a bucket list item for me. I won't
dwell on it though I'd like to spend the whole
show on it. But one of my bucket list items,
and I I'm not meeting that bucket for a very
long time. I don't think I will be, but has been.
I know it sounds really odd, but to play catch
with our daughter in the outfield at coursefield, really that's

(11:13):
so fun able to have that opportunity this afternoon. So
we just went out, we went out into the outfield.
We just played catch and talked and and there was
a window to do that. I had to hit the window.
But yeah, So it was just an amazing afternoon.

Speaker 3 (11:28):
That's so fun of our field of dreams moment. But
I got to.

Speaker 2 (11:32):
I got to throw out the first pitch for the
Rockies as a woman business leader, like right before I
ran for governor. But get this, I got jipped. It
was during COVID, so I had to go to a
park and film me and yeah.

Speaker 1 (11:45):
That No, it doesn't count on the big screen.

Speaker 2 (11:48):
I was like, wait a minute, do I get to
do it on there?

Speaker 3 (11:51):
But get that?

Speaker 1 (11:52):
No, you got to get out to the park and
throw that pitch. And we all know the greatest first
pitch in baseball history, right, I'm sure ryank decent. Oh yeah,
it has to ask to be w after nine to eleven?

Speaker 2 (12:03):
Which one was the woman did so badly?

Speaker 3 (12:05):
Fifty? It was fifty cent right.

Speaker 4 (12:08):
On the too bad fifty set was terrible?

Speaker 3 (12:10):
Wasn't too bad?

Speaker 4 (12:11):
Fauci was the worst. Yeah, if you're I do think
Fauci's ever thrown a baseball in his life?

Speaker 1 (12:15):
Yeah? Yeah, eight five five for zero five eight two
five five of the number. I am so looking forward
to talking to you about everything that's going on right now,
including my epiphany as to where we are in the
race right now. But where do you think we are
in the race right now?

Speaker 2 (12:29):
I'm nervous I'm not sleeping well, I'm waking up every
day like what more can I do? What more can
we do? We started this Election day Dash, so we
built a website rtr dash dot com to help people
call knocked or send postcards, especially in Pennsylvania. Right now,
rtr dash dot com go get busy.

Speaker 3 (12:46):
But I'm feeling good.

Speaker 2 (12:48):
I'm feeling optimistic. I loved seeing Trump on Greg Guttfield.

Speaker 3 (12:53):
He was just sower. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (12:56):
We need more of that, and then I think people
will get to know the real Donald and get past
this liberal media bs about, you know, all the things
that they say he does and says, which you know,
he says some pretty controversial stuff sometimes. But you could
tell he was very comfortable in New York too at
his rally last night.

Speaker 1 (13:12):
Yeah, so why do you think with forty eight now
forty seven days left to election day he spent precious
time and money in New York.

Speaker 2 (13:21):
The polling's actually pretty tight from what I'm reading, and
it's his home base. He loves it, he feels comfortable,
he feels energized, and it's a hot mess. It's like
the epitome of every bad policy decision. You can see
it right there. In New York.

Speaker 1 (13:34):
Yeah, like they're talking about Harris now making a run
at Texas. I hope she spends every day in Texas
and all her money in Texas. Right, She's going to
be sent back, but yeah, and who knows. Maybe it
was just personal for Trump as well, but I also
think it'd sends such a positive message, right that he
would go there and have that much support there.

Speaker 3 (13:52):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (13:53):
So a couple of texts here, So many of these
for you, Heidi, Dan, Heidi own on this. One's a
kind of sexual shot at Kamala Harris. We don't do
that on this show.

Speaker 2 (14:07):
We don't need to. There's so many things her policy
is so terrible.

Speaker 1 (14:13):
Stay there, Yeah, Dan and Heidi. It is more important
for women that they can have an abortion up to birth,
or that their kids are not killed by fentanyl brought
across the open border, or that illegal immigrants are not
getting raped or sex slize human traffic that from Alexa.
You're in a far better position to answer this than
I am. I have my own thoughts on it. But
as we sit here right now, how many women for

(14:34):
whom abortion is a real priority are going to break
with the Democrats because they're more worried about these other things.

Speaker 2 (14:43):
Well, I don't know. It's a tough, tough issue. Women
are very, very committed to that issue if they're on
board with it, like that's their thing. And we just
talked Dan a little bit about a Glamour magazine poll
that they did with you, guv. So it was a
legit and they asked where abortion lies in the lineup,

(15:05):
and it was seventh for women.

Speaker 1 (15:08):
You're seeing some polls where it's near the top, but
you're seeing many others where it's further down the list.
And that's my hope and kind of my belief is
things are so bad right now that you and we
all know, right it's cliche for a reason. It's true
that mothers have this overwhelming protective instinct. You know, they
are created that way, and I just think that instinct

(15:28):
to protect your children. There are so many other threats
to your children from these lefty policies. I think that's
going to peel off a meaningful number of females. Now
do they stay at home or do they go all
the way to voting for the Republican? Who knows, but
I think that will also be affector. The other thing
Heidi and tell me if this is a fantasy. Is
this whole idea of men in girls' bathrooms and showers

(15:52):
and men in women's sports and things like that, I've
got to believe. I mean, there are so many moms
who love their kids more than they do their place
political party, or they love their kids more than they
hate Trump. I've got to believe that issue is a
factor too.

Speaker 2 (16:06):
I think we'll see it afterwards and with the voting, Like,
I don't think women are going to speak loudly and
proudly that they're voting for Trump if they aren't a Republican,
if they aren't you a full Trump supporter. But I
think we'll see it afterwards in the hidden vote of
women who care deeply about their kids. They're disgusted with
what's going on, but they don't want to argue with
their neighbors about it and their liberal girlfriends about it.

Speaker 1 (16:29):
Texter, Dana, Hettie, Kelly and I are suburban women and
love Trump. That from Alexa, I get that point. I
just think we're likely to see movement among other women
who normally don't support Republican candidates toward Trump for many
of these same reasons. I expect we'll see a noticeable

(16:50):
lack of support from black women for the Democrat. They'll
still win black women overwhelmingly, but they got to get
them all or close to all. Right, Now, by all,
I mean at rates that say Barack Obama did.

Speaker 2 (17:03):
Yeah, And I think they're losing black men. I think
black men are standing up and saying, you can't just
expect me to vote because of the color of your skin,
like that's not cool, and they're outwardly speaking about that.

Speaker 1 (17:17):
And why do you think they're losing black men? I
have my own theory.

Speaker 2 (17:21):
I think it's like the wissification of men, right.

Speaker 3 (17:24):
That's it.

Speaker 1 (17:24):
And I think it's the same reason Trump is gaining
so much among Latinos, right. And it's strength, right, It's
strength in all the positive ways in this contrast strength
versus weakness, which I think should be even more of
a focus of the Trump campaign because that contrast is
real and obvious. No honest person can deny it. And Yeah,

(17:46):
I think they're just an awful lot of people, including
both genders, who just want strength rather than weakness.

Speaker 2 (17:54):
Dan, I don't know why we're not like seeing polls
with Trump having sixty five to seventy percent of the vote.
Everything that's happening in the country, it just blows me away.

Speaker 1 (18:03):
Hey, when we come back, had an epiphany, political epiphany,
and those political epiphanies for me have been pretty reliable,
pretty accurate. When we come back, I'm going to bounce
the one I had last night off of Heidi and
you get.

Speaker 3 (18:16):
Your take on it.

Speaker 1 (18:17):
Eighty five four zero five eight two five five.

Speaker 3 (18:19):
You're on the Dankpla Show.

Speaker 4 (18:25):
You're listening to the Dankplass Show podcast.

Speaker 5 (18:28):
The only good thing is that it's always a consequential
president that gets shot at. And fortunately so far I've
been very lucky. Or something is greater than all of us.

Speaker 3 (18:40):
Oo, it is something drumthing.

Speaker 5 (18:46):
Is up there, some one's up there, maybe watching over
so I think he's.

Speaker 4 (18:49):
Voting for you.

Speaker 1 (18:52):
How do you get all? Do you think God save
Donald Trump?

Speaker 3 (18:57):
Twice?

Speaker 2 (19:00):
God has a hand in our country and the American
experiment and truly wants people to be free. So I
would say yes.

Speaker 1 (19:13):
Yeah, No, I do too. I do too. Certainly you
look at Pennsylvania, right, and in my mind on Pennsylvania,
there's no doubt. Just you look how everything ended up,
and everybody knows the drill. Yeah, and you could see
why God would do that, right, I mean, so many
different ways. And then this one here not as close

(19:35):
to call as Pennsylvania, but it doesn't take that long
to play that hole, right. So had that agent not
picked up that gun barrel, you know, Trump would have
been on that green pretty quick.

Speaker 2 (19:48):
I also think I remember Megan Kelly saying a while
back that with all this legal wrangling in then I'd
love your take on this that Trump needed a straight flash.
Is that what she said? He needs to He needed
to win every single case, like he needed to have
the stars aligned to get out of trouble on every
single case. And he did that for the most part.

(20:09):
We'll see if he gets elected he did it. If
he did doesn't, then he may go to jail. But
I think there's been so many would you call them
divine interventions? Just the hand of God behind him, pushing
behind the whole movement to save our country and to
save our kid's future.

Speaker 1 (20:28):
Yeah, because you look at where we'd be at if
he had not one in sixteen, for example, and you
had those three liberal activists Supreme Court justices instead of
the three we got. Yeah, right, I mean it would
we wouldn't have a democracy. That's not an overstatement, because
every major policy issue would be decided ultimately by liberal

(20:49):
jurists who are legislating for life.

Speaker 8 (20:51):
Right.

Speaker 1 (20:52):
So no, and you look at the history of the
Dacian I don't think anybody can doubt the founders had
it right when they signed that declaration and said they
were relying undivined providence, because you look at so many
pivot points in our nation's history where I think that's
pretty clearly been at work.

Speaker 2 (21:07):
Yeah, I agree. I certainly feel like we are in
a spiritual war right now. And I mean those of
us that pray are praying on our knees every morning
that things turn out okay for our country, for our
kids' future, our grandkid's future. And I just I have
a little soft spot in my heart for him because
he's been through so much and he's a fighter and

(21:29):
he just doesn't give up. And he's now acknowledging that
God plays a part in it, which is kind of
interesting to see.

Speaker 1 (21:37):
Well, right, but that's why you really have to laugh,
right when you hear all these people on the left,
all these secular folks on the left, say, ah, you're
a hypocritical Catholic. You're a hypocritical Christian for backing Trump.
Look how screwed up he is, Look how much he sins.
And I say, man, I'm no theologian. I spent four
years in a seminary in high school, but I'm no theologian.

Speaker 3 (21:58):
Have you ever read the Bible?

Speaker 1 (22:00):
I mean, it's all about using screwed up people, using
screwed up people to go out and do the stuff
God wants done. And a lot of those screwed up
people have done a much better job than all the
prim and proper people.

Speaker 2 (22:12):
Dan. They have probably not read the Bible.

Speaker 1 (22:15):
Yeah, that's a good, good point, good point which which
brings me to my political epiphany.

Speaker 8 (22:21):
Right.

Speaker 4 (22:21):
I also love it when non Christians try to lecture
Christians like myself or Catholic like you, Dian, like what
doesn't your faith tell you?

Speaker 3 (22:28):
What do you know about my faith?

Speaker 7 (22:30):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (22:30):
Yeah, yeah?

Speaker 1 (22:32):
And I actually enjoy it, Ryan, because it's an opportunity, Right,
It's an opportunity maybe open some eyes, not that person
you're talking to, because we all know that hate interferes
with brain function.

Speaker 8 (22:42):
Right.

Speaker 1 (22:42):
But the whole point that okay trumps so immoral, How
can you vote from et cetera. I say, wait a second, man,
it's the morality of his public policy. It's a morality
of how he uses his power in office. And if
you applied that criteria, I can't remember a more moral
president to the United States in my lifetime.

Speaker 2 (23:04):
I think that's a great point. And I can't wait
till Kyle Clark and those folks get a hold of this,
and they're going to be like, oh my gosh, you
know that. But at the end of the day, we
all believe that God is leading this charge and the
direction of the election and all the crazy stuff that's
happened since twenty sixteen. I mean, here we are. We

(23:25):
have a chance to save our country right now.

Speaker 1 (23:27):
Well, and I like the chance thing you say, because yeah, absolutely,
I mean God wins, right, and in the end, God wins.
But I think part of leading that charge is Okay,
he puts Ryan Shuling there and says, okay, Ryan Schulin,
you got to do your thing, puts us here, puts
everybody listening here, And in the end, I think it

(23:47):
comes down to the whole free will idea. Right wants
us to do the right thing, but we got that
free will to do it or not. And if we
want to abuse the freedom we've been given to elect
people who are going to destry very religious liberty, they're
going to mass destruct human life, they're going to strip
away freedom, then yeah, we've got that free will to

(24:09):
do the wrong thing.

Speaker 2 (24:11):
Yeah. And honestly, if anything keeps me up at night,
it's that it is the free will. It's that people
are so easily won over by a nice looking TV
ad or you know, a debate performance is very slick
and calm and like, you know, trance like to people
who don't pay attention to politics. And so I'm worried.

(24:33):
If I'm worried about anything, it's the naivety, the gullibility,
the like Americans are just gulible, a lot of them,
and that worries.

Speaker 1 (24:42):
Me well, which brings me to my political epiphany. Okay,
because before I predicted obviously that Joe Biden would not
be the nominee, and then predicted that Kamala Harris would
eventually run out of gas and clearly be on the
way to def and I think we've reached that moment

(25:02):
as of today. And if somebody wants to get into
the whys and the House and the basis and all that.
I'm more than happy to go there, but I think
we've officially reached that moment where the clear eyed people
on the left can see that she is headed toward
to defeat. And we haven't talked to bait chat. I'd
love to do that in a bit. But I think
she exceeded expectations in the debate because they were so

(25:24):
low and she was thoroughly protected by these sets.

Speaker 2 (25:27):
That was going to happen.

Speaker 1 (25:28):
Dan not a tough call, right, and so I think
she exceeded expectations, but she clearly failed to do what
she needed to do right, which was to explain how
she'd be different than Biden and why she changed her positions.
She didn't even try to go there, so she failed.
That's I think why her camp wanted that second debate
right away. They knew she had whiffed, so right now

(25:50):
there's nothing to break her fall, and I think the
clear eyed left understand she's headed to defeat and those
margins might get big enough. You saw some of the
polling out today, not from the right in Pennsylvania, showing
McCormick now tied with Casey, and so her margin of
defeat may grow so great that she costs them the

(26:10):
Senate as well. So I think we're at that pivot
point moment now where the left has to make a
decision do they really want her to win? Because my
belief is there are a lot of powers on the left,
including Obama, who don't want her to win because it'll
be a disaster for the Democratic Party, which is their tool.
Right because she wins, what happens, Heidi, She's probably not

(26:32):
going to get a Scotus pick, and if she does,
it's just going to be replacing Sodo my ore. But
she's probably not even going to get that. She's going
to be horrifically unimaginably bad, which is then going to
wipe the Dems out in the midterms, and they're going
to get wiped out in twenty eight and all this
so called young talent on the bench for Dems is
benched for another eight years. So I think the really

(26:54):
smart people on the left want her to lose. But
now that I think it's clear she's tracking to her feet,
here's the moment of truth, not like in the next
thirty seconds. But now do they do they make her president?
Because if they really want her to win. You know,
that's the only big card they have left because Trump
didn't fall for another debate. You know, the basis point

(27:18):
thing that I think was political interference yesterday. Dropping interest
rates is going to help her, but not enough. So
if they really want her to win, what do they
have left besides running Biden out and making her president?

Speaker 8 (27:29):
Now?

Speaker 2 (27:31):
I think you're right, Dan, I do think there's probably
an eighty percent chance that they pull that card. The
only thing that makes me think they might not is
that Jill, Jill, Jill Biden has not been out and
about and I feel like if they tried to take
the presidency from Joe Biden that Jill would go crazy

(27:53):
and say some really nutso things.

Speaker 1 (27:56):
Well, wait a second, they just pants Biden in public
ants the sitting president of the United States, and then
they duct taped them naked to a poll. That's what
they did, the political equivalent of that, right, Yes, And
it can't get any worse than that. They would not
have been able to pants him that way unless they
have everything they need on him and everything they need

(28:17):
to run him out office. So we're going to find
out now. We're going to find out now if if
they want her to lose because they know it would
be disastrous for the Democratic Party if she won, or
if they desperately want her to win, and if they
desperately want her to win, they're going to run by
now make her president and hope that that aura.

Speaker 2 (28:38):
Do you think it works if they do?

Speaker 1 (28:40):
What a great question. Let's take that into the next segment. See, Hei,
she's unnatural at this Ryan right, we're in the perfect tease,
the perfect transition at just the right time, and we'll
all work in calls and text as well. Eight five
five four zero five eight two five five the number
text d an five seven seven three nine. You're on
the dan Kaplace Show.

Speaker 3 (28:58):
And now back to the dan Cap the show podcast.

Speaker 5 (29:01):
And the media is extremely dishonest, extremely corrupt. Actually, look
at the debate.

Speaker 3 (29:06):
I walked off. I said, that's the bait.

Speaker 5 (29:08):
You know. They said I'm the goat in debates, because
I had a lot of debates and I became president,
and the goat means greatest of all time. He's a goat.
But what a great step.

Speaker 1 (29:20):
I tell you, I bought a used car from the goat,
the true goat. Now, who is the true goat? Who
is the true goat Ryan, Who's the true goat?

Speaker 2 (29:29):
John Allen?

Speaker 3 (29:30):
What I mean?

Speaker 2 (29:33):
Car dealers?

Speaker 3 (29:33):
Tom Brady?

Speaker 2 (29:34):
Oh that was a trick.

Speaker 3 (29:35):
Now, listen.

Speaker 1 (29:36):
I think I think Elway was underrated as a quarterback.
I mean I think he's top two or three all time.
But anyway, let's get back to this life and death stuff.

Speaker 2 (29:46):
At except Dan, You're going to get hate text now
for saying that Tom Brady's the goat over John Away.

Speaker 1 (29:51):
Oh listen, hey, I'm an honest guy. I can tell
you this. Thirty years on air, I have only lied once,
and I have only lied once, and I think it's
about thirty years. I don't want to lie about how
many years it's been.

Speaker 3 (30:04):
It's somewhere close to thirty. Short story.

Speaker 1 (30:09):
Amy and I were dating and we were in California.
I think I was covering a trial. I can't remember,
but we were in California, and I told her the
night before, Okay, there's going to be an earthquake in
the morning. Here's how you deal with it. Here's where
you go, here's where you stand. Everything else. Five o'clock
the next morning, the big killer quake hit, and so

(30:31):
we end up doing media. She then is she's on
NBC and doing that stuff, and I'm doing the local stuff.
But anyway, long story short, Mike Crosen asked me in
an interview. He said, he said, so did you wake
Amy up when the earthquake hit? And I said to Mike,
I had to think really hard. I said, I went

(30:52):
down the hall and woke her up, right, I was
just trying to protect her on her So I've lied
once in thirty years.

Speaker 3 (30:58):
Oh, I'm just going to tell the truth.

Speaker 1 (31:00):
Anybody who thinks John Elway was a better quarterback than
Tom Brady, God love him. I think Elweg is underrated
as a quarterback. I put him just behind Brady. But anyway,
let's go back to the phone lines there and fuego
as one might imagine at this moment in history, Greg
and Alt Colorado, You're on with heidiginall and Dan Kaplis welcome.

Speaker 8 (31:20):
Dan, Heidi, Ryan. It's very good talking to you guys.
I love your show.

Speaker 3 (31:24):
Thank you. You didn't mention Kelly.

Speaker 8 (31:26):
Oh, Kelly, I love her too, yep, But I know
it's coming to the end of the show, and I
just wanted to say, hey, so yeah, I do have
a very strong faith I'm with you guys, one hundred
percent divine intervention, you got it. Yeah, but you know what,
God's got all this under control. And if I wake
up November sixth and things didn't actually go the way

(31:49):
we kind of all think, we really probably think it
should go because I own my own business up here
in Fort Collins, and you know it's Ah, if I
wake up November six things aren't just like we want.
God still has this under control. God's got the good point.

Speaker 3 (32:05):
We all know who wins in the end.

Speaker 8 (32:08):
Yeah, this generations shown up pass before my return. When
you see these things happen, hold your head high. Your
redemption is an I all.

Speaker 3 (32:14):
Right, hey, Greg, really appreciate the call.

Speaker 1 (32:17):
I'm with Youah, no question, no question, man, with one
hundred percent on that you know and and listen, we
all know it from our own lives.

Speaker 8 (32:25):
Right.

Speaker 3 (32:25):
Sometimes some stuff happens. Who was it?

Speaker 8 (32:27):
Was it?

Speaker 1 (32:28):
Amy Grant with Sometimes the best thing to happen is
unanswered prayers. I know I botched that a little bit,
but yeah, I mean, yeah, you just know who wins
in the end. But I also am a firm believer
that we got to do our part right and then
chips fall where they May. And by the way, if
you just joined the show, I'm not trying to make
excuses in advance for losing. In fact, my belief is

(32:50):
start Trump is starting to pull away. The left sees that,
so you know, what do they do now in desperation
to try to stop what appears to be inevitable? Don
and Fort Collins. You're with Heidi and Dan.

Speaker 9 (33:02):
Welcome by Dan ms Ganeal. Good to talk with you.
I have a question, actually two questions, I guess, Heidi,
why do you think we're not saying more ads on
the TV that portray Kamala Harris with her own words

(33:23):
when she was talking about she wanted to ban fracking,
she wanted to take guns away. I don't see any
of that on the TV, and I think that would
be so powerful to see her on TV in her
own words.

Speaker 3 (33:35):
Don, thank you for that.

Speaker 1 (33:36):
My apologies were coming up in the end of the
show so that I'll have to be it. Join us tomorrow, please.

Speaker 3 (33:40):
What do you think, Heidi's pretty simple?

Speaker 2 (33:41):
Money they have to allocate resources in Colorado doesn't really
matter in the presidential race.

Speaker 1 (33:46):
Yeah, but I think the swing states are getting slammed
at those ads right now, which is part of the
reason we see that Trump lead. But also you saw
the Galipol yesterday where her unfavorables are higher than his
in that Galipol yesterday, I don't believe that, but I
believe it's starting to move in that direction. Yeah, Texter says,
do you really think Thomas has four more years?

Speaker 3 (34:05):
And scotus?

Speaker 1 (34:06):
If Trump wins, surely he'll retire, So the Dems think
they must win to stop that replacement. Listen, I wouldn't
be shocked if Justice Thomas retired during a Trump term,
but no way in hades he's retiring during a Democrat term.
Seventy six. So many seventy six year olds now, Heidi,
you know, are like fifty six year olds.

Speaker 2 (34:27):
Seventy six is the new thirty six.

Speaker 1 (34:30):
I like that, and ye got a long way to
go till I get there. Thank you for doing this today,
of course, thanks for having me for it again soon
and often, Ryan, thank you my friend as always the best. Kelly,
you are a trooper, so tough working through all of this,
and thanks for being with us. Please join us tomorrow
again four oh six on the Dankpla Show.
