We know this was a failure, and I'm 18 00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:45,960 Speaker 3: going to get to the bottom of this. 19 00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:49,800 Speaker 1: Okay, Well, look this goes straight to the politics because 20 00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:52,519 Speaker 1: we've had Kamala. How do you say Kamala? How do 21 00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:53,960 Speaker 1: you say kam Kamala? 22 00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:54,360 Speaker 2: Harris? 23 00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:58,360 Speaker 1: Okay, I said it Kamala. First time I said name 24 00:00:58,360 --> 00:01:01,520 Speaker 1: anyone went wrong and then just Kamala. You just said Kamala. 25 00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:04,280 Speaker 1: And then you listen to her audio book and she 26 00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:06,280 Speaker 1: starts talking about it name and says, it's Kamala. 27 00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:08,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it's uh. 28 00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:10,800 Speaker 3: I mean, we've got a few politicians like that over there. 29 00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:13,960 Speaker 3: But you'll you'll hear the President introduce her as Kamala Harris, 30 00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:15,600 Speaker 3: Vice President Kamala Harris. 31 00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:18,480 Speaker 1: Sweet, which he's taken either. And now we have a 32 00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:22,120 Speaker 1: nationwide poll which won't indicate really the result of the 33 00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:24,440 Speaker 1: election because of the electric college system, but it says 34 00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:27,800 Speaker 1: that basically Kamala and Donald Trump hit hit. 35 00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:28,800 Speaker 2: Yeah. 36 00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:30,800 Speaker 3: And again we have to remember we're, you know, six 37 00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:33,080 Speaker 3: months out or so, a little less than that, but 38 00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:37,120 Speaker 3: they're in a statistical tie at this point. And Harris 39 00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:40,280 Speaker 3: has a strong lead among women, which isn't a surprise here, 40 00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:43,120 Speaker 3: compared to Trump among Black voters, which again isn't a 41 00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:43,880 Speaker 3: surprise there. 42 00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:46,280 Speaker 2: Big advantage over. 43 00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:48,160 Speaker 3: Donald Trump sixty seven do I think it was something 44 00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:51,200 Speaker 3: like twenty two percent. Big gains in the Hispanic vote 45 00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:53,000 Speaker 3: over here. And that's what the Republicans have been going 46 00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:56,280 Speaker 3: over here for Andrew for some time. They realize, Okay, 47 00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:58,440 Speaker 3: we've got this core base right here. That base itself 48 00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:01,080 Speaker 3: is not going to expand they've tried to go after 49 00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:03,840 Speaker 3: the African American vote and Donald Trump, I think, or 50 00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:06,200 Speaker 3: at least his advisors this time around, have tried to 51 00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:09,240 Speaker 3: soften his image a little bit more to attract the 52 00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:10,920 Speaker 3: female vote. 53 00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:13,800 Speaker 2: But I think really the thing. 54 00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:16,880 Speaker 3: That stands out about this is, you know, nobody's really 55 00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:19,480 Speaker 3: excited about his VP choice over here, jd Vance. I mean, 56 00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:21,680 Speaker 3: he hasn't even had that honeymoon bump that you expect 57 00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:24,920 Speaker 3: when when a new vice president is announced over here. 58 00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:27,840 Speaker 1: Yes, but I see also that Donald Trump leads with 59 00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:30,320 Speaker 1: eighteen to thirty five year old voters, the youth like 60 00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:32,160 Speaker 1: from forty five to thirty six. That's not bad. 61 00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:33,160 Speaker 2: Well, it's not. 62 00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:35,359 Speaker 3: The thing is, you've got to get those voters out 63 00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:38,360 Speaker 3: to vote. And those are the voters this time around 64 00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:40,600 Speaker 3: that have said in a number of polls they're having 65 00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:42,639 Speaker 3: the hardest time choosing a candidate. They were not a 66 00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:45,160 Speaker 3: fin Now this all came out before you know, Kamala Harris, 67 00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:46,480 Speaker 3: you know, through her having into the ring. 68 00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:48,640 Speaker 2: But they weren't excited about Joe Biden. 69 00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:51,040 Speaker 3: And younger voters tend to lean a bit a little 70 00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:52,640 Speaker 3: bit more to the left and vote Democrat, and they 71 00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:55,320 Speaker 3: weren't excited about Donald Trump over here. What I think 72 00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:57,800 Speaker 3: they wanted was a third candidate, and that's just something 73 00:02:57,840 --> 00:02:59,560 Speaker 3: that we don't have, and we haven't had over here 74 00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:02,160 Speaker 3: serious for some time. That here we go. 75 00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:04,280 Speaker 1: If you pop Robbie F. Kennedy Junior into the poll, 76 00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:07,280 Speaker 1: which they did, suddenly he splits the vote on the right, 77 00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:09,000 Speaker 1: and suddenly Harris has a one percent lead. 78 00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:12,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, which which again is you know, give or 79 00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:16,079 Speaker 3: take a margin of error at this point and time. 80 00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:18,280 Speaker 3: It'll be interesting to see if this honeymoon phase. And 81 00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:20,600 Speaker 3: it has been a good, good week and a half 82 00:03:20,639 --> 00:03:22,800 Speaker 3: for Kamala Harris too. I mean, her poll numbers have 83 00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:26,600 Speaker 3: gone up, she's raised a gazillion dollars, and more importantly, 84 00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:29,000 Speaker 3: at least if you're the Democrat, she's taken away all 85 00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:31,440 Speaker 3: the news coverage on the news cycle from Donald Trump, 86 00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:33,800 Speaker 3: who was you know, obviously in the headlines for that 87 00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:37,400 Speaker 3: attempted assassination attempt and then the Republican convention as well. 88 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:40,680 Speaker 3: But now she's she's got all the limelight over here, very. 89 00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:44,200 Speaker 1: Good and is the greatest in the femoment right now 90 00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:47,400 Speaker 1: of the sporting world. Somemon biles because she's just stunning 91 00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:49,240 Speaker 1: the USA gymnas. 92 00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:51,160 Speaker 3: I think so I think you have a handful of 93 00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:54,760 Speaker 3: athletes who always stand out at every Olympics, and those 94 00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:56,600 Speaker 3: that are here for the first time and those that 95 00:03:56,640 --> 00:03:59,120 Speaker 3: are making a return visit. And I think from the 96 00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:02,400 Speaker 3: US standpoint, she has captured the attention of a lot 97 00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:05,000 Speaker 3: of people again. And I think after the Tokyo Games 98 00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:06,840 Speaker 3: were covered under that blanket of COVID that we had 99 00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:09,920 Speaker 3: four years ago, We're looking for somebody that's positive. We're 100 00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:14,200 Speaker 3: looking for somebody that's familiar, that we feel like we know. 101 00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:16,880 Speaker 3: And she's still in a fantastic job and she doesn't 102 00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:20,800 Speaker 3: have to prove anything to anyone anymore. I mean, she's 103 00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:22,160 Speaker 3: doing it for the love of the game or the sport. 104 00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:23,840 Speaker 3: And I think viewers pick up on that. If you've 105 00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:25,240 Speaker 3: been watching this Olympics. 106 00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:26,440 Speaker 1: Oh yes we have, and I thank you so much. 107 00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:29,279 Speaker 1: That is Dan Minchison out of the United States of American. 108 00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:33,320 Speaker 2: For more from Hither Duplessy Allen Drive, listen live to 109 00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:36,440 Speaker 2: news talks.
