Democrats on Capitol Hill emerge from private meetings singing out of the same hymnal on Joe Biden as their candidate for President in 2024, but Rep. Steve Cohen (D-TN) claims they're not in the same book - let alone on the same page - when it comes to the incumbent commander-in-chief staying in the race. Dan offers his thoughts on this theater and insists Joe is not long for the campaign.

This is Dan Capless and welcome totoday's online podcast edition of The Dank Caplis
Show. Please be sure to giveus a five star rating if you'd be
so kind, and to subscribe,download and listen to the show every single
day on your favorite podcast platform.And the left deserves this, They deserve
what they're going through right now,and there's nothing wrong with enjoying it because
(00:21):
it's good for this country to havethem fully exposed. And hopefully Biden hangs
in there and is the nominee onelection day and it wipes the left out
up and down the tickets. Solet's just enjoy every minute of it together.
Eight five five for zero five Atwo five five the number text d
an five seven seven thirty nine.And to the point of our last caller,
(00:42):
let's do our part and not getover confident, right because if Biden
is the nominee, no, it'sgoing to look like Trump has it wrapped
up. Let's not get into thatover confidence mode and still act as if
he's down ten points now in alllikelihood there will be a different dem nominee,
as I've been saying for a yearand a half, and then it's
going to get a little scary becausethe dem whoever it is, is going
(01:03):
to be ahead of Trump in thepolls, probably for a while, maybe
all the way to election day.And in a sense that could be good
because it would keep everybody fully motivatedworking, ringing doorbells, et cetera.
Our lines are jammed. Let's gostraight there, Alan in beautiful Little ten,
You're on the Dan Kaplas. She'llwelcome Hello Ellen, Hi Dan,
(01:26):
Hi, Dan. I just wantedto I think you actually addressed what I
was talking what I was going totalk about. I believe you've been overconfident
about the chances of him being reelected and neglecting the fact that they will
(01:46):
do anything, literally anything, tomake sure that doesn't happen. And I
want to hear you. Know Iheard you. I've listened to you off
and on for you. Thank you, and I heard you before the last
election. Then you I think you'veguaranteed the win? Then no, So
what's what's going to know? Ididn't? But and which win did I
(02:09):
guarantee? No? No, Ididn't. The only win I'd ever guarantee
is my own. But I didnot guarantee a win in twenty twenty.
The yeah, but so Ellen,your question in there somewhere, and if
you want to take a shot,have added you wouldn't be the first.
(02:30):
But but what's the question in there? My biggest question is why why would
you give people false hope? Yes, see, we know that it's not
going to be that easy. It'snot going to be an easy win.
Oh and you mean if Biden's thenominee, it doesn't matter who it is.
(02:51):
Well, it does, it doesif Well Ellen is And I understand
there may be a bit of anear problem here, but when it comes
to me Michelle Obama, for example, I've made it clear that's going to
be a very, very very hardrace. If it's Michelle Obama. I
just said, hey, if it'sany other Democrat, they're going to go
up in the polls. They mightbe up on the polls through election day.
And then I made the point ourbrilliant collar before the break, who
(03:13):
said, hey, over confidence.You know, overconfidence is very dangerous.
So all I'm pointing out to peopleis that if if Joe Biden insists on
hanging on and being their nominae throughelection nominee through election day, there's a
very good chance to wipe out Demsup and down the ticket, But of
course we're all still going to haveto do our part. I agree with
(03:36):
that if he stays in. Butdo you think the Democrats are going to
let that happen? I don't thinkso. No, do you listen to
this show? I know you sayoff and on, but but there's got
to be some on in there somewhere. I'm the guy who's been saying for
a year and a half he isnot going to be their nominee on election
day, and I stand by that. I'm just hoping that I'm wrong.
(03:58):
Well, you know, I guessI come from a point of view of
a little different point of view thatthey will do literally do anything, and
that includes assassination. Don't even talklike that on and listen. I know
there are some people out there talkingand thinking about it, and you don't
wish anybody ill, but yeah,hey, no, I appreciate the call.
Thank you allan for zero five eighttwo. Here's the danger and I've
(04:21):
talked about it on air, andit's one of the reasons that I respect
Donald Trump so much. While recognizingand talking about his faults, we all
have plus and minus columns. Heproved his physical courage when he protected this
nation by taking out Sola money.And he knew the second he gave that
(04:41):
order that it would put him ingrave danger, and it put his entire
family in grave danger. And Ido worry very much for the President's health
because the Iranian regime is evil,and Donald Trump is one of the few
in modern American history who have stoodup as effectively to evil around the world
(05:01):
and have deterred evil around the worldas effectively as Trump passed. So do
I worry for his safety. Yes, I do from a pragmatic standpoint,
which is how I always want toattack this and I get Allen's concerns and
fears. And we've saw some shenaniganslast time around, with COVID changing the
rules and now the Wisconsin Supreme Courtruling on the drop boxes. These are
things that require attention. I thinkin many ways Republicans were caught off guard
(05:28):
by Democrats with the ballot boxes andthe ballot harvesting. But Ron de Santis
actually brought this conversation to the campaign. He was very smart about it.
I trust Lara Trump a lot morethan RONI McDaniel. But the Republican Party
needs are operatives on the ground,lawyers like Dan Kaplis everywhere in Philadelphia,
Atlanta, Phoenix. You know whatI'm talking about, Yeah, watching the
(05:51):
ballots, watching the polls, notleaving your post, having an organized approach
to that, because we need tocounter at Alan. We can't just get
up and not vote and just concedethe election, right. And I think
that phase is pasted, drying.I think that phase is past. And
President Trump has done a great jobright of coming out and saying, Okay,
no, we've got a reverse course. We need all the early voting,
(06:11):
do your malan douting, all ofthat. But I think there's a
very sophisticated, broad and deep,high level GOP effort now good to make
these states follow their own election laws. And one thing that struck me this
weekend is one of the most conservative, level headed people I've ever met in
my entire life. Happens to beingout of state guy. You know,
(06:33):
we are sitting around and we're justshooting the breeze, and he just said,
and I wish I could tell youmore about this guy, but I
don't want to blow his cover.He is the last person in the world
you would expect to say this aRepublican but just alter establishment, ultra conservative.
He sit there, sat there andsaid, I'm scared to death.
(06:54):
They're going to steal this election.He's the last person in the world you
would expect to hear that from.But the GOP is out there doing everything
they can, everything they can totry to make sure the states have to
follow their own rules. And obviouslythe Dems are opposing this bill in Congress
that would say no, only legalcitizens can vote exactly. Man, scary
(07:15):
stuff, but you just have todo everything you can legally and everything you
can to to make this win asbig as possible. Let's go to beautiful
Fort Cowns. Talk to Sharon.You're on the Dane Caplis. She'll welcome.
Hi. The reason that I'm callingis that my social media is basically
blowing up with friends, and I'moriginally from California. Yeah, so these
(07:39):
are mostly Californians, Yeah, whoare talking about something called Project twenty twenty
five, and they are I don'teven know how to explain it. It
just seems to be something that theyhave wrapped onto as a way to say
(08:03):
that, you know, all thecomments about Trump is evil and all that,
well, yeah, well, itsounds like you got something going on
there, Sharon. I very muchappreciate the call. Thank you, especially
on a busy day like this.The Project twenty twenty five thing, let
me tackle that a little bit afterthe break. Trump has very decisively distanced
(08:26):
himself from that, so we'll getinto a few more details on that after
the break. Let me do tryto he's been so patient. Let me
try to get Chris from Colorado Springsin right now. You're on the Dan
Kaplis. She'll welcome Chris. Hey, Dana, thanks for having me on.
Oh, we're talking about Yeah,we're talking about ballots and the way
(08:46):
that one of the reasons that wewant we didn't do as well last time
is because Republicans are afraid of ballotharvesting. Republicans voters don't like ballot harvesting.
Gives me know it's not right.And the Democrats and that's how they
that's how they threw us to almosta tie and uh and was it CD
(09:07):
three and uh And we have touse the idea of ballot harvesting because they
love it for years. Yeah,and I think there's widespread acceptance of that
now right that we have to engage, meaning the right that you have in
as much legal ballot harvesting as possiblelegal, but no big pushback, big
(09:28):
pushback. I was knocking on doorsand Pueblo this last primary, and big
pushback on on ballot hardest. Well, hang on, hang on, Chris,
this is really important. I wantto make sure it gets enough time.
When we come back. We'll plugChris in as well. Eight five
five for zero five A two fivefive the number when we come back.
A fascinating text about Taylor Swift.Obviously, as it pertains to this election,
(09:52):
as the latest poll shows Hillary Clintonrunning better against Trump than Kamala Harris,
how do you think that did workout? Here on the Dan Kaplish
y'all, and now back to theDan Kaplis Show podcast letters, folks calls
down the lay of twenty four hours. Should Joe Biden leave the presidential race
after the debate? Look? Overall, yeah, the majority of Americans fifty
(10:13):
six percent say yeah, he shouldleave the race. But look among Democrats,
this is Joe Biden's base. Thisis why he is the president.
They nominated him back in twenty twenty, they nominated him again in twenty twenty
four, sixty six percent of Democratssay no, he should not leave the
race. And of course it's goingto be these Democratic voters who put the
pressure on their members of Congress,their governors, the elected officials, party
(10:35):
actors to try and get Biden thelead. At this particular point, though,
the Democratic activists are not necessarily goingto put the pressure on Joe Biden,
because the fact of the matter ismost Democratic voters, two thirds of
them, want Joe Biden to stayin this race. They don't want him
to quit case. This is absolutelyperfect. You couldn't draw it up any
better. So two thirds want himto stay in the race. Hey,
(10:56):
how are you going to do withoutthat other sir? But here's here's the
point. The people who want himto stay in the race, the only
reason to want him to stay inthe race is these Democrats are looking at
the rest of the Democrats and sayingthey're all losers. That's the only can
somebody articulate for me some logical oranalytical, practical reason any Democrat who actually
wants to beat Trump would want Bidento stay in the race. The only
(11:20):
reason would be if they're looking atthe rest of them and saying they're worse
than Biden. Yep. So rightoff the bat, that tells you this
is a great, great time tobe a conservative. But then the other
third who want him out of therace, it would only take a small
percentage of those deciding to stay home, you know, to decide the outcome,
and not just the outcome in thepresidential race, in some of these
(11:41):
close down ballot races. I wasjust testing back and forth with our own
Michael Brown, of course those morningsdown here on six point thirty k I
in Denver and he's team kaplis aboutBiden bailing on the race, and I
said, I would be too.If there was a nineteen ninety two Bill
Clinton or two thousand and four BarackObama type waiting in the wings, that
(12:01):
was obviously better that if you insertthat person, that's a win. You
just made the point, Dan,there isn't that person. That person doesn't
exist. As we go back toChris and Colorado Springs, let me give
you a sports analogy, because Iknow that you're absolutely brilliant a sports,
so many other things. Sports sowell, did you hear the last part
so many other things? Here's thepoint. Do you remember that play I
(12:22):
have it etched in my mind.It was just a horrible moment in sports
history when Terrell Davis goes down withthat horrible knee. And Okay, so
at that point, most people wouldsay there's nobody on the Bronco bench who
can replace Terrell Davis, to whichRyan would say, Okay, well,
Terrell, you got to keep playing. See what you're ignoring. What you're
(12:45):
ignoring in your analysis is biology,physiology. Joe Biden is not physically or
mentally capable, and he hasn't beenfor a long time. And and hey,
spoiler alert, he's not Benjamin Button. He's not going to get younger.
This is only going to get worse. And here's the other point,
Ryan, did you ever and Ihate to ask such a personal question,
(13:07):
did you ever see your grandmother naked? No? Okay, you cannot unsea
that. People cannot unsee that debate. They're not going to forget that the
Dems could spend fifty billion dollars onspots. You can't unsee certain things.
But my point is just because JoeBiden's terrible, and he is, that
doesn't make the rest of them good, as that pole just shows they don't
have confidence in alternative, just likeTerrell when he was laying on the sideline
(13:31):
with his knee blown out. Thefact that Broncos we're going to lose with
any other running back doesn't mean youcan put Terrell back in the game not
physically capable. That's the issue withBiden and America sees it. But anyway,
I do want to get back tothe lines. This texter got my
interest. Dan, do you havepinups of Taylor Swift and your man cave
(13:52):
Texter? Have you seen my wife? That's all you got to know,
Chris in Colorado Springs. You're onthe Dan Kaplo show. Now. Chris
joined us a few minutes ago,and Chris was saying, Dan, you
are wrong as wrong can be.You're probably as wrong as you've ever been
when you say that all the Republicanshave learned their lesson. They're now going
(14:13):
to do legal, underlying, legalballot harvesting and not give Dems that big
edge. Chris says, I'm wrongabout that. Chris, enlighten us.
Please thanks Dan for having me beI appreciate it. Sure. Yeah.
So, I mean I've talked toa lot of Republican primary voters here in
Pueblo, and there are a lotof Republicans that will not participate in in
(14:37):
ballot harvesting because they find it morallywrong. Well, how many do you
need to participate? What's that?Now? You're from Chicago. I'm from
Chicago. I've seen it upfront andpersonal in Chicago where they registered eight people
at my residents and all those thepeople voted. Well, Chris, so
(15:01):
what you're what you're talking about?You and I were only talking about doing
legal things. Sorry, but well, what you're talking about is you're out
there. Are you telling us thatyou have been out there trying to ballot
harvest and there are Republicans who refuseto participate because they think it would be
illegal or immoral to do that.Yes, okay, okay, interesting,
(15:24):
interesting, Okay, Now of thosehundreds, let me let me sorry and
rough Chris, it's just yeah,let me ask you, my good friend,
what percentage of those are you confidentwe'll get their own ballot cast by
election dayqu I think numbers few onthat. I mean, I mean we're
(15:46):
talking about people who are conservative peoplewho want us to win. That they
and they and they they're they're justthey just don't want there to give up
their ballot. But they're also notreally convin is that the that the system
isn't rigged enough that their ballot counts. Man, that is depressing. Well,
(16:07):
yeah, they're talking about and that'sa good proportion of our of our
of our of our voters. Imean, that's a part of the reason
why Obart only won by so manyvotes last time. And that's why this
next election, I'm just talking aboutCD three right now, why I think
it's gonna be pretty close here also, and I think that there's a number
of a number of people in thisparticular district that I think it's rigged.
(16:33):
Yeah, well, well, whatdo you mean rigged? Rigged by the
fact that you're saying they're Conservatives whoa won't return their ballot but won't let
anybody pick it up either, orrigged in some other way rigged, and
that they're because they know they're gonnalose Colorado, that they can steal it
in Philly. And and you haveone hundred plus percent turnout in precincts of
(16:55):
Milwaukee. You've got Chris, solet me bring it back to Colorado.
So you're saying they are an awfullot of Colorado voters who are not going
to vote because they're convinced that Coloradoelections are stolen, not that they're necessarily
stolen in Colorado because there's no evidenceto that's. That's I have not seen
it myself, that's correct. Ihaven't seen it in a large scale like
(17:21):
I've seen in Chicago. Yeah,And my point was that that they also
see it stolen in other states,and so that they don't they and I
know they can't win this blue statestate wide election for Trump. Well,
listen, and I forgive me becausewe have to hit this break. But
that's a different critter. If you'vegot people who are saying, hey,
(17:42):
listen, we've got no chance towin here, so I'm just not going
to vote that that's a different critterthan people thinking, well, somehow the
left is going to steal the racehere, so it's not worth my vote,
which would be crazy thinking there's noevidence of that. It would be
give up thinking. And let's hopeif there's anybody thinking that way, they
change that. Hey. This bigissue of the Biden campaign radio hosts fired
(18:03):
for using questions posed by Biden bringsus back to John Hickenlooper and his interview
with me that made national news.That next you're listening to the Dan Kaplis
Show podcast. It doesn't get anybetter than this, right, So today
you have all these Democrats who think, OMG, but Biden isn't leaving,
(18:23):
maybe he won't go. So nowthey're trying to pull the one eighty and
say, oh yeah, we reallydo support Biden when they know that he
can't wait, he can't function,but they're stuck that they're stuck because the
Biden family has, as at thispoint, taken the Democratic Party hostage.
It's just a beautiful thing to see. Now, We've all got to be
(18:45):
realistic. Right, As much aswe would want Joe Biden to be the
Democrat candidate on election Day, thatisn't going to happen, and at some
point a switch is going to bemade. But we can enjoy every single
day the Democrats are stuck with this, because every day they're stuck with it
is a day they fall further behind. And Trump was winning this race going
into the debate, which was thereason the debate was happening anyway. So
(19:11):
yeah, let's just enjoy savor everysingle day this this cannibal fest goes on
and let's hope it goes on forweeks. And what great timing, right
with the GOP convention now starting nextweek, which takes heat off Biden and
means they'll hang around longer. Thatthat is a great thing for Trump.
And listen, if the twenty fifthAmendment could be invoked, it should be.
(19:34):
This nation's in grave danger with Bidenas president. I would want it
invoked right now, but it ain'tgonna happen now. Do you think it
should be invoked? Mike Johnson cameout today, the speaker said it should
be. Wall Street Journal came outand said it shouldn't be. What do
you think Kate five to five forzero five A two five five The number
text da N five seven seven threenine. Bottom line is we know it's
not going to be so in thatcase, if we're stuck with Biden as
(19:57):
president, well you might as wellhave them as a demnominee because that's the
closest you can come to ensuring victory. Then we got a guard against over
confidence, as a caller pointed out, But let's just enjoy it in the
meantime while not taking the foot offthe pedal in terms of supporting Trump and
and you know this whole effort,but what we need now, we need
(20:18):
Biden to stay the dem nominee throughelection day and hope that it just devastates
Democrats up and down the ballot.Let's go to a Jim in Castle Rock.
Hopefully it's Chief Jim. No offenseto other gyms in Castle Rock.
Well that's not Chief Jim. ButI just wanted to tell you know,
I've volunteered for the election down therein Denver, and I have you know,
(20:41):
I will vote, but I haveabsolutely no confidence in our elections in
Colorado. You know, Dan,do you realize they take a they take
a duplicate of every single ballot inthe state. And not only do they
take a duplicate of every single ballot, they take a digital, dupleate kit
of every ballot, and those digitalballots can be changed. And I'm down
(21:06):
there and I just know it,and I mean and tell people realize this
whole thing, that Colorado is savedsecure. All I can tell you,
Dan, is since we got mailin ballots, we have won one state
wide election, now was Corey Gardnerbeat marcut All. And ever since then,
we've had marijuana come We've lost threeof our elections on marijuana, and
(21:27):
we haven't won a governorship, wehaven't won an attorney general, and it's
got all to do with mail inballots. Well, Jim, sure,
don't you think there's another explanation forthat, though, that that once we
went to mail in ballots, itmade it easier for less committed people to
vote and increased votes for Democrats andfor leftist causes. Now we've won a
(21:48):
lot of ballot issues in the meantime, But don't you think that's the more
likely explanation? I don't personally,Okay, and walk me through this,
and I'm so sorry to interrupts,it's just these time constraints of talk radio.
Then explain this to me. Okay, So if you don't accept what
appears to me to be the obviousexplanation malon balloting helps Democrat candidates because it
(22:10):
increases Democrat turnout, then explain tome your belief that these elections are being
stolen because of the digital images thatare taking of ballots as you explained it.
Then then can you point us toa race that you would attribute to
that kind of theft and tell uswhat your your evidence of that is,
you know, Dan, That's thething. If nobody I can't look,
I have no ability to look.But I know a lot about digital stuff,
(22:33):
and I know you know, Iwas in the printing business for years,
and I know I know that.Well. They make no bones about
it, Dan, Do you realizewhat they do in this state? They
you know why they take a duplicateimage of a whatever, a half a
million or a million beout dollars?You know why they do that. Supposedly,
the justification for that is so thatif somebody like Dan puts it in
(22:55):
X instead of an oval, thatthey can fix his ballot. Okay,
Jim, but let me, Jim, let me bring you back to this.
I understand you have these theories.Let me bring you back to this.
First. Would you agree that WayneWilliams, when when he was Secretary
of State and a great one,he was not stealing races for Democrats?
You know, I you know,I don't know about when. Was he
(23:18):
not a chance? Zero zero chanceof that? Now, Jim, explain
this to me. Can you pointus to a single race in Colorado that
you believe was stolen in the wayyou suggest? I believe that's how we
got marijuana. That's what I believe. That's exactly how we got Let me
tell you how we got marijuana.The way we got marijuana was Colorado had
rejected it twice by significant margins,and then we had several things going on.
(23:42):
We had the mail in balloting goingon, if I remember correctly.
But here's what we had. Wehad Bill Maher and others on the left
flood Colorado without a state money andthere was no organized opposition to it.
That's how we got marijuana in Colorado. But Jim, I appreciate the call.
I just it's an evidence based show. And when people call in and
(24:03):
say Colorado elections are being stolen,all I can say is I have no
proof of that, and I thinkwe're deluding ourselves. And if we start
to believe, oh no, thereason we're losing is Colorado elections are being
stolen, well then we're not goingto pay attention to the real reasons we're
losing and fix those eight five orzero five eight two five five. But
you know what, I prided myselfon this for my almost three decades on
(24:25):
air. There is an open doorhere. Somebody has real evidence. It
doesn't matter if you prove my pointor you prove the opposite point. You
can walk in this door and youcan put it on air. So if
somebody has evidence they can bring inof stolen elections in Colorado, we will
literally Ryan, send the limo forhim, right, literally send the limo
for you. In the meantime,let's deal with reality. And the reality
(24:47):
is we got to start winning againhere, and that's going to take really
hard work, and it's going totake an awful lot of stuff that we're
not doing right now. And let'snot delude ourselves. Let's face the real
reasons we're losing. Now. Whenit comes to the very legitimate concern about
this twenty twenty four presidential election andthe possibility it can be so close that
(25:11):
you don't want even a single fraudulentballot cast, there should be grave concern
and there should be massive efforts allover the country to force states to follow
their own laws and to make surethat there's election integrity everywhere. Nobody should
take their foot off the pedal onthat. Nobody, and I know the
(25:33):
GOP is doing a lot on thatfront now and I'm glad that they are,
And there should absolutely be this billpassed by Congress that only American citizens
can vote. Chris in Fremont,back on the Dan Kapli Show, Chris,
what do you have? My friend? Hey, buddy, can you
hear me? Yes, sir,so, I shall forever be known as
(25:57):
Chris Chowing Ryan's brothers. You're alucky man, my friend before and and
that they're sweet angel that you haveanswering the phone, Kelly, she's the
one who recognized what was going onthere, so so I don't forget.
(26:21):
I got a couple of notes her. Yeah, my friend, we're up
against it. We're up against it? Are you able to bottom line it
for us? And Chris is wonderfuland he was with us earlier in the
show. So what does that keypoint? I am? So, what
would we do if we if westill have the old man who would tell
(26:45):
us it doesn't matter what you're talkingabout right now? It's all repeat talking
points, you know? Okay?Well instead of Clay and Buck, right,
what would we do if we weren'tall sitting around talking about something that
(27:07):
doesn't matter? Yeah, let thisthat's a deep thought. Chris, you
and Ryan have been hanging out becauseyou guys come up with these deep,
deep thoughts like yesterday and Ryan said, Dan, you're so right, which
is why you're wrong, And let'sstuck with you. And I am still
thinking that one through. You're onthe Dan Capla Show and now back to
the Dan Taplas Show podcast. Well, Kristen, first of all, you
(27:29):
said that it happens all the timethat the number three person in the Department
of Justice jump ship to join alocal prosecutor's office to go out for the
president's political opponent. I don't thinkthat's ever happened in the history of American
democracy, and I don't think thatwe should legitimize it. Now. If
Donald Trump's attorney general had his numbertwo or his number three jump ship to
a local prosecutor's office in Ohio orWisconsin, and that person then went after
(27:52):
Donald Trump's political opposition, that's adifferent conversation. All he's suggesting is that
we should investigate credible arguments of wrongdoing. That's all that Donald Trump is saying.
That is not a threat to democracy, that's merely reinforcing our system of
law and government. Well, Ihave to tell you he is really impressive.
JD. Vance And as I lookat the VP candidates. I think,
hey, at number one in helpingTrump and he be a great president
(28:15):
would be Marco Rubio Bergham. Ijust don't see it though. Appears to
be a cool guy, but vanceI get why so many people are impressed
and right off the bat, youknow, I mean, you're gonna win
Ohio anyway, But I could seea lot of people being impressed by him
and seeing him as as somebody whocould step into the job. Eight five
to five for zero five eight twofive five the number one To get to
(28:37):
some of these texts, and I'llget back to our phone lines, which
have been absolutely fascinating today, Dan, So what do the Bennetts and Hickenloopers
think about the Piden demented freak.They've been all about him, all up
in his junk ever since he waselected. What do they think now?
Why don't we hear from them?Thank you for that, Texter, because
again this goes back to the factthat we have ghost senators no matter where
(29:00):
you come down on policy, that'sa real crime. Because if that's right
up there with Ken Buck, whoI've admired over the years until the recent
stunts abandoning the people of CD fourand actually leaving them without representation in Congress.
You know that, come on,that that's as wrong as wrong can
get. Same thing here. Bennettand Higelooper are ghosts. And you know,
(29:22):
if somebody is a lefty, whoeveryou are, okay, you win
the election. Elections have consequences,But my goodness, don't disappear, do
something, stand up and lead.I guess we should be grateful that they're
ghosts because then they do less harm. They still cast votes for Democrat nonsense,
but they do less harm because they'reghosts. So how in the world
right now, with the President ofthe United States obviously incapacitated, these two
(29:45):
guys just disappear and hide under theirdesks. But yeah, that's the state.
The fun part of it, though, is the way it reveals who
the left in Colorado really is,right, They actual morally superior. Oh
they are. They are so enlightened, they are so woke. Right,
And then you look at them,You look at this gang of boring old
(30:07):
white men. You know, they'resupposed to be right, the left in
Colorado, the Democratic Party, they'reall about people of color, They're all
about opportunity, all about rainbows andeverything else, and then in power,
Hey go away, they say toeverybody of color and everything else, and
you end up with three boring oldwhite men, you know, who do
very very little and largely disappear.Yeah, that's the reality of the Democratic
(30:33):
Party in Colorado. What a bunchof phonies, Dan, Can anyone physically
prove there are elections in Colorado warfare? Seems to me that if somebody's going
to suggest that elections are being stolenhere, that the burden of proof is
on them. I just haven't seenany evidence of Colorado elections being stolen.
I've seen evidence of us, weConservatives, the GOP, not being at
(30:56):
all that we should trying to winelections. But let's not delude ourselves.
We just have to do better.And this one gets too long, Dan,
The quickest way to guarantee that yourvote won't count as not cast one.
Boy, That's so beautifully said,isn't it, Ryan, Dan just
heard the Chicago call. He forgotabout all the cemetery precincts, thank you,
(31:18):
Richard J. Daley, and widespreadbelief that the election for Kennedy was
stolen in sixty in Illinois. Butlisten, you know I've told the story
on air before Ryan of my dad, one of the greatest people to ever
live, who was a Chicago policeofficer. And he's a young cop and
and he's getting some extra work andso he's in uniform back when he was
(31:40):
in uniform, and he's working onelection day and he's this young cop and
he goes into the Chicago precinct andbefore it opens up and he checks and
all of a sudden, you know, it was the voting machine days.
All of a sudden, there areall these votes for Democrats on the machine
and it hasn't even opened and there'sno early voting then at least not legal,
and so he goes and reports it. Wow, that job didn't last.
(32:04):
He was literally banished from the pollingplace. He was made to sit
outside, but he couldn't do hisjob. So yeah, I mean there
was no question about that, DanRyan. Billy Joe says Alexa five exclamation
points. I played two Billy Joelsongs, actually Billy Joel. Okay,
I miss that, thank you,But I do want to mention I've never
(32:24):
written a song before, at leastnot one that's been publicly played, but
one will be tomorrow on this show. I love these parody songs. So
I wrote one for what's going onright now in this moment of cannibalism in
the Democratic Party. So that willdebut tomorrow at four h six on the
dan Kapla Show. Unless, asJoe Biden says, unless the Good Lord
(32:45):
comes down and tells us, we'regonna have another topic. But did you
notice on that, Ryan, thatwhat Biden actually said was if the Good
Lord comes down, he might getout of the ring. Yeah, which
is pretty deep. Now, laterin the interview he tried to correct that,
but pretty revealing about Biden. LennIn Denver, you're on the dan
Kaplace, you'll welcome Hi. Well, I really do like jd Vance a
(33:09):
lot. His story is amazing.I think everybody should read the book and
watch. He'll Billy elogy. He'sreally great. Also. So now does
it looks like Biden's going to bethe nominee? Possibly? Maybe? Pretty
sure. All the people that aregoing to have to come back to him
that have gone away from him initially, they're going to be maybe stuck with
(33:31):
him. So my little tongue incheap thing is okay, then what are
they going to do cheap to be? I mean is that their latest I'm
kind of joking about that, butwhat is there approach going to be now
that they're stuck with the nominee thatsome of them went away from and now
they're kind of great question? Lynn, I hope we talk with you again
(33:52):
tomorrow. They're not going to bestuck with them. They're not They're not
going to be willing to do that. They're not going to be willing to
go down with that ship. They'renot going to be willing to eat crow.
They're not going to be willing tobend the knee to Biden and the
Biden family any longer. He's notgoing to be their nominee. It's just
going to be more messy. It'sgoing to take longer, which is going
(34:13):
to be great for Trump and Republicans. Let's enjoy us together. Thank you,
Ryan, thank you, Kelly.Catching tomorrow
This is Dan Capless and welcome totoday's online podcast edition of The Dank Caplis
Show. Please be sure to giveus a five star rating if you'd be
so kind, and to subscribe,download and listen to the show every single
day on your favorite podcast platform.And the left deserves this, They deserve
what they're going through right now,and there's nothing wrong with enjoying it because
(00:21):
it's good for this country to havethem fully exposed. And hopefully Biden hangs
in there and is the nominee onelection day and it wipes the left out
up and down the tickets. Solet's just enjoy every minute of it together.
Eight five five for zero five Atwo five five the number text d
an five seven seven thirty nine.And to the point of our last caller,
(00:42):
let's do our part and not getover confident, right because if Biden
is the nominee, no, it'sgoing to look like Trump has it wrapped
up. Let's not get into thatover confidence mode and still act as if
he's down ten points now in alllikelihood there will be a different dem nominee,
as I've been saying for a yearand a half, and then it's
going to get a little scary becausethe dem whoever it is, is going
(01:03):
to be ahead of Trump in thepolls, probably for a while, maybe
all the way to election day.And in a sense that could be good
because it would keep everybody fully motivatedworking, ringing doorbells, et cetera.
Our lines are jammed. Let's gostraight there, Alan in beautiful Little ten,
You're on the Dan Kaplas. She'llwelcome Hello Ellen, Hi Dan,
(01:26):
Hi, Dan. I just wantedto I think you actually addressed what I
was talking what I was going totalk about. I believe you've been overconfident
about the chances of him being reelected and neglecting the fact that they will
(01:46):
do anything, literally anything, tomake sure that doesn't happen. And I
want to hear you. Know Iheard you. I've listened to you off
and on for you. Thank you, and I heard you before the last
election. Then you I think you'veguaranteed the win? Then no, So
what's what's going to know? Ididn't? But and which win did I
(02:09):
guarantee? No? No, Ididn't. The only win I'd ever guarantee
is my own. But I didnot guarantee a win in twenty twenty.
The yeah, but so Ellen,your question in there somewhere, and if
you want to take a shot,have added you wouldn't be the first.
(02:30):
But but what's the question in there? My biggest question is why why would
you give people false hope? Yes, see, we know that it's not
going to be that easy. It'snot going to be an easy win.
Oh and you mean if Biden's thenominee, it doesn't matter who it is.
(02:51):
Well, it does, it doesif Well Ellen is And I understand
there may be a bit of anear problem here, but when it comes
to me Michelle Obama, for example, I've made it clear that's going to
be a very, very very hardrace. If it's Michelle Obama. I
just said, hey, if it'sany other Democrat, they're going to go
up in the polls. They mightbe up on the polls through election day.
And then I made the point ourbrilliant collar before the break, who
(03:13):
said, hey, over confidence.You know, overconfidence is very dangerous.
So all I'm pointing out to peopleis that if if Joe Biden insists on
hanging on and being their nominae throughelection nominee through election day, there's a
very good chance to wipe out Demsup and down the ticket, But of
course we're all still going to haveto do our part. I agree with
(03:36):
that if he stays in. Butdo you think the Democrats are going to
let that happen? I don't thinkso. No, do you listen to
this show? I know you sayoff and on, but but there's got
to be some on in there somewhere. I'm the guy who's been saying for
a year and a half he isnot going to be their nominee on election
day, and I stand by that. I'm just hoping that I'm wrong.
(03:58):
Well, you know, I guessI come from a point of view of
a little different point of view thatthey will do literally do anything, and
that includes assassination. Don't even talklike that on and listen. I know
there are some people out there talkingand thinking about it, and you don't
wish anybody ill, but yeah,hey, no, I appreciate the call.
Thank you allan for zero five eighttwo. Here's the danger and I've
(04:21):
talked about it on air, andit's one of the reasons that I respect
Donald Trump so much. While recognizingand talking about his faults, we all
have plus and minus columns. Heproved his physical courage when he protected this
nation by taking out Sola money.And he knew the second he gave that
(04:41):
order that it would put him ingrave danger, and it put his entire
family in grave danger. And Ido worry very much for the President's health
because the Iranian regime is evil,and Donald Trump is one of the few
in modern American history who have stoodup as effectively to evil around the world
(05:01):
and have deterred evil around the worldas effectively as Trump passed. So do
I worry for his safety. Yes, I do from a pragmatic standpoint,
which is how I always want toattack this and I get Allen's concerns and
fears. And we've saw some shenaniganslast time around, with COVID changing the
rules and now the Wisconsin Supreme Courtruling on the drop boxes. These are
things that require attention. I thinkin many ways Republicans were caught off guard
(05:28):
by Democrats with the ballot boxes andthe ballot harvesting. But Ron de Santis
actually brought this conversation to the campaign. He was very smart about it.
I trust Lara Trump a lot morethan RONI McDaniel. But the Republican Party
needs are operatives on the ground,lawyers like Dan Kaplis everywhere in Philadelphia,
Atlanta, Phoenix. You know whatI'm talking about, Yeah, watching the
(05:51):
ballots, watching the polls, notleaving your post, having an organized approach
to that, because we need tocounter at Alan. We can't just get
up and not vote and just concedethe election, right. And I think
that phase is pasted, drying.I think that phase is past. And
President Trump has done a great jobright of coming out and saying, Okay,
no, we've got a reverse course. We need all the early voting,
(06:11):
do your malan douting, all ofthat. But I think there's a
very sophisticated, broad and deep,high level GOP effort now good to make
these states follow their own election laws. And one thing that struck me this
weekend is one of the most conservative, level headed people I've ever met in
my entire life. Happens to beingout of state guy. You know,
(06:33):
we are sitting around and we're justshooting the breeze, and he just said,
and I wish I could tell youmore about this guy, but I
don't want to blow his cover.He is the last person in the world
you would expect to say this aRepublican but just alter establishment, ultra conservative.
He sit there, sat there andsaid, I'm scared to death.
(06:54):
They're going to steal this election.He's the last person in the world you
would expect to hear that from.But the GOP is out there doing everything
they can, everything they can totry to make sure the states have to
follow their own rules. And obviouslythe Dems are opposing this bill in Congress
that would say no, only legalcitizens can vote exactly. Man, scary
(07:15):
stuff, but you just have todo everything you can legally and everything you
can to to make this win asbig as possible. Let's go to beautiful
Fort Cowns. Talk to Sharon.You're on the Dane Caplis. She'll welcome.
Hi. The reason that I'm callingis that my social media is basically
blowing up with friends, and I'moriginally from California. Yeah, so these
(07:39):
are mostly Californians, Yeah, whoare talking about something called Project twenty twenty
five, and they are I don'teven know how to explain it. It
just seems to be something that theyhave wrapped onto as a way to say
(08:03):
that, you know, all thecomments about Trump is evil and all that,
well, yeah, well, itsounds like you got something going on
there, Sharon. I very muchappreciate the call. Thank you, especially
on a busy day like this.The Project twenty twenty five thing, let
me tackle that a little bit afterthe break. Trump has very decisively distanced
(08:26):
himself from that, so we'll getinto a few more details on that after
the break. Let me do tryto he's been so patient. Let me
try to get Chris from Colorado Springsin right now. You're on the Dan
Kaplis. She'll welcome Chris. Hey, Dana, thanks for having me on.
Oh, we're talking about Yeah,we're talking about ballots and the way
(08:46):
that one of the reasons that wewant we didn't do as well last time
is because Republicans are afraid of ballotharvesting. Republicans voters don't like ballot harvesting.
Gives me know it's not right.And the Democrats and that's how they
that's how they threw us to almosta tie and uh and was it CD
(09:07):
three and uh And we have touse the idea of ballot harvesting because they
love it for years. Yeah,and I think there's widespread acceptance of that
now right that we have to engage, meaning the right that you have in
as much legal ballot harvesting as possiblelegal, but no big pushback, big
(09:28):
pushback. I was knocking on doorsand Pueblo this last primary, and big
pushback on on ballot hardest. Well, hang on, hang on, Chris,
this is really important. I wantto make sure it gets enough time.
When we come back. We'll plugChris in as well. Eight five
five for zero five A two fivefive the number when we come back.
A fascinating text about Taylor Swift.Obviously, as it pertains to this election,
(09:52):
as the latest poll shows Hillary Clintonrunning better against Trump than Kamala Harris,
how do you think that did workout? Here on the Dan Kaplish
y'all, and now back to theDan Kaplis Show podcast letters, folks calls
down the lay of twenty four hours. Should Joe Biden leave the presidential race
after the debate? Look? Overall, yeah, the majority of Americans fifty
(10:13):
six percent say yeah, he shouldleave the race. But look among Democrats,
this is Joe Biden's base. Thisis why he is the president.
They nominated him back in twenty twenty, they nominated him again in twenty twenty
four, sixty six percent of Democratssay no, he should not leave the
race. And of course it's goingto be these Democratic voters who put the
pressure on their members of Congress,their governors, the elected officials, party
(10:35):
actors to try and get Biden thelead. At this particular point, though,
the Democratic activists are not necessarily goingto put the pressure on Joe Biden,
because the fact of the matter ismost Democratic voters, two thirds of
them, want Joe Biden to stayin this race. They don't want him
to quit case. This is absolutelyperfect. You couldn't draw it up any
better. So two thirds want himto stay in the race. Hey,
(10:56):
how are you going to do withoutthat other sir? But here's here's the
point. The people who want himto stay in the race, the only
reason to want him to stay inthe race is these Democrats are looking at
the rest of the Democrats and sayingthey're all losers. That's the only can
somebody articulate for me some logical oranalytical, practical reason any Democrat who actually
wants to beat Trump would want Bidento stay in the race. The only
(11:20):
reason would be if they're looking atthe rest of them and saying they're worse
than Biden. Yep. So rightoff the bat, that tells you this
is a great, great time tobe a conservative. But then the other
third who want him out of therace, it would only take a small
percentage of those deciding to stay home, you know, to decide the outcome,
and not just the outcome in thepresidential race, in some of these
(11:41):
close down ballot races. I wasjust testing back and forth with our own
Michael Brown, of course those morningsdown here on six point thirty k I
in Denver and he's team kaplis aboutBiden bailing on the race, and I
said, I would be too.If there was a nineteen ninety two Bill
Clinton or two thousand and four BarackObama type waiting in the wings, that
(12:01):
was obviously better that if you insertthat person, that's a win. You
just made the point, Dan,there isn't that person. That person doesn't
exist. As we go back toChris and Colorado Springs, let me give
you a sports analogy, because Iknow that you're absolutely brilliant a sports,
so many other things. Sports sowell, did you hear the last part
so many other things? Here's thepoint. Do you remember that play I
(12:22):
have it etched in my mind.It was just a horrible moment in sports
history when Terrell Davis goes down withthat horrible knee. And Okay, so
at that point, most people wouldsay there's nobody on the Bronco bench who
can replace Terrell Davis, to whichRyan would say, Okay, well,
Terrell, you got to keep playing. See what you're ignoring. What you're
(12:45):
ignoring in your analysis is biology,physiology. Joe Biden is not physically or
mentally capable, and he hasn't beenfor a long time. And and hey,
spoiler alert, he's not Benjamin Button. He's not going to get younger.
This is only going to get worse. And here's the other point,
Ryan, did you ever and Ihate to ask such a personal question,
(13:07):
did you ever see your grandmother naked? No? Okay, you cannot unsea
that. People cannot unsee that debate. They're not going to forget that the
Dems could spend fifty billion dollars onspots. You can't unsee certain things.
But my point is just because JoeBiden's terrible, and he is, that
doesn't make the rest of them good, as that pole just shows they don't
have confidence in alternative, just likeTerrell when he was laying on the sideline
(13:31):
with his knee blown out. Thefact that Broncos we're going to lose with
any other running back doesn't mean youcan put Terrell back in the game not
physically capable. That's the issue withBiden and America sees it. But anyway,
I do want to get back tothe lines. This texter got my
interest. Dan, do you havepinups of Taylor Swift and your man cave
(13:52):
Texter? Have you seen my wife? That's all you got to know,
Chris in Colorado Springs. You're onthe Dan Kaplo show. Now. Chris
joined us a few minutes ago,and Chris was saying, Dan, you
are wrong as wrong can be.You're probably as wrong as you've ever been
when you say that all the Republicanshave learned their lesson. They're now going
(14:13):
to do legal, underlying, legalballot harvesting and not give Dems that big
edge. Chris says, I'm wrongabout that. Chris, enlighten us.
Please thanks Dan for having me beI appreciate it. Sure. Yeah.
So, I mean I've talked toa lot of Republican primary voters here in
Pueblo, and there are a lotof Republicans that will not participate in in
(14:37):
ballot harvesting because they find it morallywrong. Well, how many do you
need to participate? What's that?Now? You're from Chicago. I'm from
Chicago. I've seen it upfront andpersonal in Chicago where they registered eight people
at my residents and all those thepeople voted. Well, Chris, so
(15:01):
what you're what you're talking about?You and I were only talking about doing
legal things. Sorry, but well, what you're talking about is you're out
there. Are you telling us thatyou have been out there trying to ballot
harvest and there are Republicans who refuseto participate because they think it would be
illegal or immoral to do that.Yes, okay, okay, interesting,
(15:24):
interesting, Okay, Now of thosehundreds, let me let me sorry and
rough Chris, it's just yeah,let me ask you, my good friend,
what percentage of those are you confidentwe'll get their own ballot cast by
election dayqu I think numbers few onthat. I mean, I mean we're
(15:46):
talking about people who are conservative peoplewho want us to win. That they
and they and they they're they're justthey just don't want there to give up
their ballot. But they're also notreally convin is that the that the system
isn't rigged enough that their ballot counts. Man, that is depressing. Well,
(16:07):
yeah, they're talking about and that'sa good proportion of our of our
of our of our voters. Imean, that's a part of the reason
why Obart only won by so manyvotes last time. And that's why this
next election, I'm just talking aboutCD three right now, why I think
it's gonna be pretty close here also, and I think that there's a number
of a number of people in thisparticular district that I think it's rigged.
(16:33):
Yeah, well, well, whatdo you mean rigged? Rigged by the
fact that you're saying they're Conservatives whoa won't return their ballot but won't let
anybody pick it up either, orrigged in some other way rigged, and
that they're because they know they're gonnalose Colorado, that they can steal it
in Philly. And and you haveone hundred plus percent turnout in precincts of
(16:55):
Milwaukee. You've got Chris, solet me bring it back to Colorado.
So you're saying they are an awfullot of Colorado voters who are not going
to vote because they're convinced that Coloradoelections are stolen, not that they're necessarily
stolen in Colorado because there's no evidenceto that's. That's I have not seen
it myself, that's correct. Ihaven't seen it in a large scale like
(17:21):
I've seen in Chicago. Yeah,And my point was that that they also
see it stolen in other states,and so that they don't they and I
know they can't win this blue statestate wide election for Trump. Well,
listen, and I forgive me becausewe have to hit this break. But
that's a different critter. If you'vegot people who are saying, hey,
(17:42):
listen, we've got no chance towin here, so I'm just not going
to vote that that's a different critterthan people thinking, well, somehow the
left is going to steal the racehere, so it's not worth my vote,
which would be crazy thinking there's noevidence of that. It would be
give up thinking. And let's hopeif there's anybody thinking that way, they
change that. Hey. This bigissue of the Biden campaign radio hosts fired
(18:03):
for using questions posed by Biden bringsus back to John Hickenlooper and his interview
with me that made national news.That next you're listening to the Dan Kaplis
Show podcast. It doesn't get anybetter than this, right, So today
you have all these Democrats who think, OMG, but Biden isn't leaving,
(18:23):
maybe he won't go. So nowthey're trying to pull the one eighty and
say, oh yeah, we reallydo support Biden when they know that he
can't wait, he can't function,but they're stuck that they're stuck because the
Biden family has, as at thispoint, taken the Democratic Party hostage.
It's just a beautiful thing to see. Now, We've all got to be
(18:45):
realistic. Right, As much aswe would want Joe Biden to be the
Democrat candidate on election Day, thatisn't going to happen, and at some
point a switch is going to bemade. But we can enjoy every single
day the Democrats are stuck with this, because every day they're stuck with it
is a day they fall further behind. And Trump was winning this race going
into the debate, which was thereason the debate was happening anyway. So
(19:11):
yeah, let's just enjoy savor everysingle day this this cannibal fest goes on
and let's hope it goes on forweeks. And what great timing, right
with the GOP convention now starting nextweek, which takes heat off Biden and
means they'll hang around longer. Thatthat is a great thing for Trump.
And listen, if the twenty fifthAmendment could be invoked, it should be.
(19:34):
This nation's in grave danger with Bidenas president. I would want it
invoked right now, but it ain'tgonna happen now. Do you think it
should be invoked? Mike Johnson cameout today, the speaker said it should
be. Wall Street Journal came outand said it shouldn't be. What do
you think Kate five to five forzero five A two five five The number
text da N five seven seven threenine. Bottom line is we know it's
not going to be so in thatcase, if we're stuck with Biden as
(19:57):
president, well you might as wellhave them as a demnominee because that's the
closest you can come to ensuring victory. Then we got a guard against over
confidence, as a caller pointed out, But let's just enjoy it in the
meantime while not taking the foot offthe pedal in terms of supporting Trump and
and you know this whole effort,but what we need now, we need
(20:18):
Biden to stay the dem nominee throughelection day and hope that it just devastates
Democrats up and down the ballot.Let's go to a Jim in Castle Rock.
Hopefully it's Chief Jim. No offenseto other gyms in Castle Rock.
Well that's not Chief Jim. ButI just wanted to tell you know,
I've volunteered for the election down therein Denver, and I have you know,
(20:41):
I will vote, but I haveabsolutely no confidence in our elections in
Colorado. You know, Dan,do you realize they take a they take
a duplicate of every single ballot inthe state. And not only do they
take a duplicate of every single ballot, they take a digital, dupleate kit
of every ballot, and those digitalballots can be changed. And I'm down
(21:06):
there and I just know it,and I mean and tell people realize this
whole thing, that Colorado is savedsecure. All I can tell you,
Dan, is since we got mailin ballots, we have won one state
wide election, now was Corey Gardnerbeat marcut All. And ever since then,
we've had marijuana come We've lost threeof our elections on marijuana, and
(21:27):
we haven't won a governorship, wehaven't won an attorney general, and it's
got all to do with mail inballots. Well, Jim, sure,
don't you think there's another explanation forthat, though, that that once we
went to mail in ballots, itmade it easier for less committed people to
vote and increased votes for Democrats andfor leftist causes. Now we've won a
(21:48):
lot of ballot issues in the meantime, But don't you think that's the more
likely explanation? I don't personally,Okay, and walk me through this,
and I'm so sorry to interrupts,it's just these time constraints of talk radio.
Then explain this to me. Okay, So if you don't accept what
appears to me to be the obviousexplanation malon balloting helps Democrat candidates because it
(22:10):
increases Democrat turnout, then explain tome your belief that these elections are being
stolen because of the digital images thatare taking of ballots as you explained it.
Then then can you point us toa race that you would attribute to
that kind of theft and tell uswhat your your evidence of that is,
you know, Dan, That's thething. If nobody I can't look,
I have no ability to look.But I know a lot about digital stuff,
(22:33):
and I know you know, Iwas in the printing business for years,
and I know I know that.Well. They make no bones about
it, Dan, Do you realizewhat they do in this state? They
you know why they take a duplicateimage of a whatever, a half a
million or a million beout dollars?You know why they do that. Supposedly,
the justification for that is so thatif somebody like Dan puts it in
(22:55):
X instead of an oval, thatthey can fix his ballot. Okay,
Jim, but let me, Jim, let me bring you back to this.
I understand you have these theories.Let me bring you back to this.
First. Would you agree that WayneWilliams, when when he was Secretary
of State and a great one,he was not stealing races for Democrats?
You know, I you know,I don't know about when. Was he
(23:18):
not a chance? Zero zero chanceof that? Now, Jim, explain
this to me. Can you pointus to a single race in Colorado that
you believe was stolen in the wayyou suggest? I believe that's how we
got marijuana. That's what I believe. That's exactly how we got Let me
tell you how we got marijuana.The way we got marijuana was Colorado had
rejected it twice by significant margins,and then we had several things going on.
(23:42):
We had the mail in balloting goingon, if I remember correctly.
But here's what we had. Wehad Bill Maher and others on the left
flood Colorado without a state money andthere was no organized opposition to it.
That's how we got marijuana in Colorado. But Jim, I appreciate the call.
I just it's an evidence based show. And when people call in and
(24:03):
say Colorado elections are being stolen,all I can say is I have no
proof of that, and I thinkwe're deluding ourselves. And if we start
to believe, oh no, thereason we're losing is Colorado elections are being
stolen, well then we're not goingto pay attention to the real reasons we're
losing and fix those eight five orzero five eight two five five. But
you know what, I prided myselfon this for my almost three decades on
(24:25):
air. There is an open doorhere. Somebody has real evidence. It
doesn't matter if you prove my pointor you prove the opposite point. You
can walk in this door and youcan put it on air. So if
somebody has evidence they can bring inof stolen elections in Colorado, we will
literally Ryan, send the limo forhim, right, literally send the limo
for you. In the meantime,let's deal with reality. And the reality
(24:47):
is we got to start winning againhere, and that's going to take really
hard work, and it's going totake an awful lot of stuff that we're
not doing right now. And let'snot delude ourselves. Let's face the real
reasons we're losing. Now. Whenit comes to the very legitimate concern about
this twenty twenty four presidential election andthe possibility it can be so close that
(25:11):
you don't want even a single fraudulentballot cast, there should be grave concern
and there should be massive efforts allover the country to force states to follow
their own laws and to make surethat there's election integrity everywhere. Nobody should
take their foot off the pedal onthat. Nobody, and I know the
(25:33):
GOP is doing a lot on thatfront now and I'm glad that they are,
And there should absolutely be this billpassed by Congress that only American citizens
can vote. Chris in Fremont,back on the Dan Kapli Show, Chris,
what do you have? My friend? Hey, buddy, can you
hear me? Yes, sir,so, I shall forever be known as
(25:57):
Chris Chowing Ryan's brothers. You're alucky man, my friend before and and
that they're sweet angel that you haveanswering the phone, Kelly, she's the
one who recognized what was going onthere, so so I don't forget.
(26:21):
I got a couple of notes her. Yeah, my friend, we're up
against it. We're up against it? Are you able to bottom line it
for us? And Chris is wonderfuland he was with us earlier in the
show. So what does that keypoint? I am? So, what
would we do if we if westill have the old man who would tell
(26:45):
us it doesn't matter what you're talkingabout right now? It's all repeat talking
points, you know? Okay?Well instead of Clay and Buck, right,
what would we do if we weren'tall sitting around talking about something that
(27:07):
doesn't matter? Yeah, let thisthat's a deep thought. Chris, you
and Ryan have been hanging out becauseyou guys come up with these deep,
deep thoughts like yesterday and Ryan said, Dan, you're so right, which
is why you're wrong, And let'sstuck with you. And I am still
thinking that one through. You're onthe Dan Capla Show and now back to
the Dan Taplas Show podcast. Well, Kristen, first of all, you
(27:29):
said that it happens all the timethat the number three person in the Department
of Justice jump ship to join alocal prosecutor's office to go out for the
president's political opponent. I don't thinkthat's ever happened in the history of American
democracy, and I don't think thatwe should legitimize it. Now. If
Donald Trump's attorney general had his numbertwo or his number three jump ship to
a local prosecutor's office in Ohio orWisconsin, and that person then went after
(27:52):
Donald Trump's political opposition, that's adifferent conversation. All he's suggesting is that
we should investigate credible arguments of wrongdoing. That's all that Donald Trump is saying.
That is not a threat to democracy, that's merely reinforcing our system of
law and government. Well, Ihave to tell you he is really impressive.
JD. Vance And as I lookat the VP candidates. I think,
hey, at number one in helpingTrump and he be a great president
(28:15):
would be Marco Rubio Bergham. Ijust don't see it though. Appears to
be a cool guy, but vanceI get why so many people are impressed
and right off the bat, youknow, I mean, you're gonna win
Ohio anyway, But I could seea lot of people being impressed by him
and seeing him as as somebody whocould step into the job. Eight five
to five for zero five eight twofive five the number one To get to
(28:37):
some of these texts, and I'llget back to our phone lines, which
have been absolutely fascinating today, Dan, So what do the Bennetts and Hickenloopers
think about the Piden demented freak.They've been all about him, all up
in his junk ever since he waselected. What do they think now?
Why don't we hear from them?Thank you for that, Texter, because
again this goes back to the factthat we have ghost senators no matter where
(29:00):
you come down on policy, that'sa real crime. Because if that's right
up there with Ken Buck, whoI've admired over the years until the recent
stunts abandoning the people of CD fourand actually leaving them without representation in Congress.
You know that, come on,that that's as wrong as wrong can
get. Same thing here. Bennettand Higelooper are ghosts. And you know,
(29:22):
if somebody is a lefty, whoeveryou are, okay, you win
the election. Elections have consequences,But my goodness, don't disappear, do
something, stand up and lead.I guess we should be grateful that they're
ghosts because then they do less harm. They still cast votes for Democrat nonsense,
but they do less harm because they'reghosts. So how in the world
right now, with the President ofthe United States obviously incapacitated, these two
(29:45):
guys just disappear and hide under theirdesks. But yeah, that's the state.
The fun part of it, though, is the way it reveals who
the left in Colorado really is,right, They actual morally superior. Oh
they are. They are so enlightened, they are so woke. Right,
And then you look at them,You look at this gang of boring old
(30:07):
white men. You know, they'resupposed to be right, the left in
Colorado, the Democratic Party, they'reall about people of color, They're all
about opportunity, all about rainbows andeverything else, and then in power,
Hey go away, they say toeverybody of color and everything else, and
you end up with three boring oldwhite men, you know, who do
very very little and largely disappear.Yeah, that's the reality of the Democratic
(30:33):
Party in Colorado. What a bunchof phonies, Dan, Can anyone physically
prove there are elections in Colorado warfare? Seems to me that if somebody's going
to suggest that elections are being stolenhere, that the burden of proof is
on them. I just haven't seenany evidence of Colorado elections being stolen.
I've seen evidence of us, weConservatives, the GOP, not being at
(30:56):
all that we should trying to winelections. But let's not delude ourselves.
We just have to do better.And this one gets too long, Dan,
The quickest way to guarantee that yourvote won't count as not cast one.
Boy, That's so beautifully said,isn't it, Ryan, Dan just
heard the Chicago call. He forgotabout all the cemetery precincts, thank you,
(31:18):
Richard J. Daley, and widespreadbelief that the election for Kennedy was
stolen in sixty in Illinois. Butlisten, you know I've told the story
on air before Ryan of my dad, one of the greatest people to ever
live, who was a Chicago policeofficer. And he's a young cop and
and he's getting some extra work andso he's in uniform back when he was
(31:40):
in uniform, and he's working onelection day and he's this young cop and
he goes into the Chicago precinct andbefore it opens up and he checks and
all of a sudden, you know, it was the voting machine days.
All of a sudden, there areall these votes for Democrats on the machine
and it hasn't even opened and there'sno early voting then at least not legal,
and so he goes and reports it. Wow, that job didn't last.
(32:04):
He was literally banished from the pollingplace. He was made to sit
outside, but he couldn't do hisjob. So yeah, I mean there
was no question about that, DanRyan. Billy Joe says Alexa five exclamation
points. I played two Billy Joelsongs, actually Billy Joel. Okay,
I miss that, thank you,But I do want to mention I've never
(32:24):
written a song before, at leastnot one that's been publicly played, but
one will be tomorrow on this show. I love these parody songs. So
I wrote one for what's going onright now in this moment of cannibalism in
the Democratic Party. So that willdebut tomorrow at four h six on the
dan Kapla Show. Unless, asJoe Biden says, unless the Good Lord
(32:45):
comes down and tells us, we'regonna have another topic. But did you
notice on that, Ryan, thatwhat Biden actually said was if the Good
Lord comes down, he might getout of the ring. Yeah, which
is pretty deep. Now, laterin the interview he tried to correct that,
but pretty revealing about Biden. LennIn Denver, you're on the dan
Kaplace, you'll welcome Hi. Well, I really do like jd Vance a
(33:09):
lot. His story is amazing.I think everybody should read the book and
watch. He'll Billy elogy. He'sreally great. Also. So now does
it looks like Biden's going to bethe nominee? Possibly? Maybe? Pretty
sure. All the people that aregoing to have to come back to him
that have gone away from him initially, they're going to be maybe stuck with
(33:31):
him. So my little tongue incheap thing is okay, then what are
they going to do cheap to be? I mean is that their latest I'm
kind of joking about that, butwhat is there approach going to be now
that they're stuck with the nominee thatsome of them went away from and now
they're kind of great question? Lynn, I hope we talk with you again
(33:52):
tomorrow. They're not going to bestuck with them. They're not They're not
going to be willing to do that. They're not going to be willing to
go down with that ship. They'renot going to be willing to eat crow.
They're not going to be willing tobend the knee to Biden and the
Biden family any longer. He's notgoing to be their nominee. It's just
going to be more messy. It'sgoing to take longer, which is going
(34:13):
to be great for Trump and Republicans. Let's enjoy us together. Thank you,
Ryan, thank you, Kelly.Catching tomorrow
