WEBVTT - A Little Homoerotic For Me 0:00:01.920 --> 0:00:06.240 Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George 0:00:06.280 --> 0:00:10.360 Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty. 0:00:10.240 --> 0:00:12.560 Armstrong and Jettie I know he. 0:00:15.440 --> 0:00:26.520 Armstrong and Yetty. 0:00:23.640 --> 0:00:25.799 We are a country that has been voting against We 0:00:25.880 --> 0:00:28.000 voted against Hillary Clinton at sixteen and got Trump. We 0:00:28.080 --> 0:00:31.000 voted against Trump and twenty and got Biden. I think 0:00:31.000 --> 0:00:33.160 this is another vote against election out of vote four. 0:00:33.840 --> 0:00:35.640 This isn't we sit here we think it's about all 0:00:35.680 --> 0:00:40.040 these issues. This is really a cultural like this is 0:00:40.200 --> 0:00:43.440 people believe they're voting for a way of life. A 0:00:43.479 --> 0:00:45.560 good chunk of both sides of this, which is why 0:00:46.400 --> 0:00:48.239 nothing gets resolved after Tuesday Night. 0:00:49.600 --> 0:00:51.240 I thought that was a pretty good point for Chuck 0:00:51.280 --> 0:00:54.400 Todd and clearly where we are. And Joe explained why 0:00:54.480 --> 0:00:58.360 it is that way in America in our two I guess. 0:01:00.080 --> 0:01:02.200 If you missed it, grab the podcast Armstrong and Getting 0:01:02.240 --> 0:01:02.600 on demand. 0:01:02.720 --> 0:01:05.720 Since Congress, since Congress doesn't do their job anymore, and 0:01:05.800 --> 0:01:09.000 the President takes the reins of so many different parts 0:01:09.000 --> 0:01:11.360 of government, and government's more involved in our life than 0:01:11.400 --> 0:01:14.319 it's ever been. And then you add in the weird 0:01:14.400 --> 0:01:21.080 obsession with attaching yourself to the personality of whichever candidate. Yeah, 0:01:21.160 --> 0:01:23.320 people are voting feel like they're voting for a way 0:01:23.360 --> 0:01:27.000 of life and they didn't get their way of life 0:01:27.160 --> 0:01:29.720 choice if the other person wins. 0:01:29.760 --> 0:01:32.959 So no, we'll not worry, right, right, And you know, 0:01:33.720 --> 0:01:35.880 in at least a partial defense of people who are 0:01:35.880 --> 0:01:39.800 going nuts over the election, it was not many years 0:01:39.800 --> 0:01:42.080 ago at all that there was a huge overlap in 0:01:42.160 --> 0:01:45.720 terms of policies and attitudes between Democrats and Republicans. I 0:01:45.720 --> 0:01:49.080 mean a huge overlap. Now there's very very little, and 0:01:49.600 --> 0:01:52.880 to my mind, the outward end of the Democratic Party, 0:01:52.920 --> 0:01:56.800 the out to the left end, is utterly insane in 0:01:56.840 --> 0:01:59.600 a way that a Bill Clinton, that Jimmy Carter never were. 0:02:00.080 --> 0:02:02.000 They were wrong about some stuff, but they weren't out 0:02:02.040 --> 0:02:05.600 of their minds. Men should play in women's sports if 0:02:05.640 --> 0:02:09.920 they say they're a girl, that's freaking crazy. Tax Payers 0:02:09.960 --> 0:02:14.840 ought to pay for sex change surgeries for illegal immigrant murderers. 0:02:14.600 --> 0:02:15.720 That's looney to you. 0:02:15.760 --> 0:02:19.680 Ought to be locked up with the aforementioned confused, you know, 0:02:19.840 --> 0:02:23.320 murderer if you think that's a good idea in my opinion. 0:02:22.960 --> 0:02:25.000 Well, and obviously having our border this open for the 0:02:25.080 --> 0:02:28.799 last couple of years is unprecedented. Also, yeah, so the 0:02:28.840 --> 0:02:31.840 whole polling thing, and not individual polls, but just polling 0:02:31.880 --> 0:02:32.359 in general. 0:02:32.480 --> 0:02:34.760 I hope we're all learning a lesson. 0:02:36.360 --> 0:02:41.960 This polling isn't it's being portrayed or has been portrayed 0:02:41.960 --> 0:02:46.639 in recent years and is something it's not. And everybody 0:02:46.639 --> 0:02:48.800 got off track. So there is this all this the 0:02:48.840 --> 0:02:50.440 polls are wrong. I don't even believe the polls and 0:02:50.440 --> 0:02:53.320 pulls are wrong. They're not. Nobody ever said that they 0:02:53.320 --> 0:02:55.679 could be right. Really, it's not a thing. I was 0:02:55.720 --> 0:02:58.720 listening to Chris Steierwaldt, formerly a Fox Now of News Nations. 0:02:58.760 --> 0:03:05.280 Pulling guy said works for stuff like opinions of how 0:03:05.320 --> 0:03:08.720 do you like the new Coke zero can? And if 0:03:08.760 --> 0:03:12.600 you get like sixty five percent of people in a 0:03:12.639 --> 0:03:15.520 focus group like the new can or not, then you 0:03:15.800 --> 0:03:18.320 keep it. If you don't, but if it's off by 0:03:18.400 --> 0:03:22.320 five percent, it doesn't matter. You got the general direction 0:03:22.440 --> 0:03:25.160 of people who like the new can or not. That's 0:03:25.320 --> 0:03:27.639 that's the best pretty much you can do with asking 0:03:27.680 --> 0:03:32.200 people questions. It's not designed to drill down to a percentage, 0:03:33.040 --> 0:03:36.119 like the single percentage of whether or not it's right 0:03:36.200 --> 0:03:39.600 or not. It's just like in general, do people like, uh, 0:03:40.080 --> 0:03:44.400 you know the state of Arizona or Audi Cars or 0:03:44.440 --> 0:03:45.720 whatever your example. 0:03:45.400 --> 0:03:49.000 Is, and too hot and sandy by the way, Arizona. 0:03:49.080 --> 0:03:51.440 But when you get down to you know, close elections, 0:03:51.440 --> 0:03:53.640 it's not even it's not even supposed to. They would 0:03:53.680 --> 0:03:56.400 never the good pulling organizations never even claim that they 0:03:56.440 --> 0:03:56.920 can do that. 0:03:57.600 --> 0:03:59.880 Right, As I've said, it's a shotgun, not a not 0:04:00.120 --> 0:04:02.960 a rifle, which Trump would probably point at Liz Cheney 0:04:02.960 --> 0:04:05.600 from what I understand. More on that to come. 0:04:05.720 --> 0:04:10.600 Yeah, But so we started talking last weekend as Christyle 0:04:10.680 --> 0:04:13.520 or Chris Steyerwalt Nate Silver and some of the other 0:04:13.520 --> 0:04:16.600 good poles are start talking about the herding that they 0:04:16.600 --> 0:04:19.960 think is going on. Herding as in like a cattle herd, 0:04:20.279 --> 0:04:25.640 it's just either on purpose to influence the polls a 0:04:25.640 --> 0:04:28.760 certain direction, or more likely you just kind of a 0:04:28.800 --> 0:04:31.320 little bit out of cowardice. Nobody wants to put out 0:04:31.320 --> 0:04:34.960 a pole that's way out of what everybody else is doing. 0:04:35.080 --> 0:04:37.320 And so kind of like with herding, you don't know 0:04:37.400 --> 0:04:41.440 exactly know which cow started the herd run in that direction, 0:04:42.480 --> 0:04:45.760 but some cows did, and then the other cow started 0:04:45.800 --> 0:04:47.520 following it, and that's way it is with this the 0:04:48.040 --> 0:04:50.719 super close poles, and nobody wants to come out and be, 0:04:51.160 --> 0:04:53.400 you know, and say our pole has Trump up by 0:04:53.600 --> 0:04:56.960 seven or behind by seven, because you're just gonna get 0:04:57.120 --> 0:04:59.560 killed all day long by one side or the other. 0:05:00.000 --> 0:05:00.880 Nobody wants to do that. 0:05:00.920 --> 0:05:04.400 And Nate Silver believes that they're they're they're adjusting their 0:05:04.400 --> 0:05:06.960 polls to try to keep them really close. And he says, 0:05:07.880 --> 0:05:11.919 they ran the numbers on the averages of the big poles. 0:05:12.240 --> 0:05:17.240 Even if all seven swing states are actually tied, there's 0:05:17.279 --> 0:05:21.520 only a one to nine point five trillion chance that 0:05:21.960 --> 0:05:24.520 so many poles would show such a close race at 0:05:24.560 --> 0:05:25.479 any one time. 0:05:27.320 --> 0:05:31.039 So, in other words, it's impossi it's impossible. 0:05:31.600 --> 0:05:36.040 Yes, it's impossible that all the poles would show, you know, 0:05:36.160 --> 0:05:38.120 every poll say yep, we've got it less than one 0:05:38.120 --> 0:05:40.440 percent in every state to US today, US two. 0:05:41.360 --> 0:05:46.600 It's impossible, which follow them, okay, okay, And yet they 0:05:46.640 --> 0:05:51.040 are claiming that very thing, wow, right, which is interesting. 0:05:51.920 --> 0:05:55.359 And then you have and don't need to belabor this, 0:05:55.440 --> 0:05:57.560 but then you had the Iowa poll come out yesterday 0:05:57.600 --> 0:06:03.280 with the single most respected in America, this woman that 0:06:03.320 --> 0:06:05.320 everybody trusts, and one of the reasons she's been doing 0:06:05.320 --> 0:06:07.920 it for so long and getting so much attention is 0:06:08.040 --> 0:06:11.159 you know, I was the first date in all the primaries, 0:06:11.160 --> 0:06:14.640 so they got more polling going on there than anywhere else. 0:06:14.480 --> 0:06:16.880 In the country for ever since I always been the 0:06:16.920 --> 0:06:17.360 first state. 0:06:17.680 --> 0:06:21.279 AnyWho, they had a giant, giant swing, and she was 0:06:21.360 --> 0:06:24.480 just explaining the Polster all day long. That's that's what 0:06:24.480 --> 0:06:27.240 we got. That's the way polls should work. You get 0:06:27.360 --> 0:06:29.320 big swings and you have to take them all in 0:06:29.400 --> 0:06:30.920 and look for trends and this and that. 0:06:31.040 --> 0:06:35.440 But yeah, yeah, so the fix is clearly in. And 0:06:35.800 --> 0:06:37.880 I don't think it's partisanship all the way it could. 0:06:37.960 --> 0:06:40.320 I'm not saying I know that it's not. But to me, 0:06:40.400 --> 0:06:42.840 it's like other industries, including the one we're in, where 0:06:43.600 --> 0:06:46.120 you will never get fired for doing the same thing 0:06:46.120 --> 0:06:50.520 everybody else is doing. If, on the other hand, you 0:06:50.560 --> 0:06:52.560 take a chance and it doesn't work out, or you 0:06:52.640 --> 0:06:55.960 publish a poll that says Trump's ahead by seven and 0:06:56.520 --> 0:06:58.880 then maybe he loses or something like that, you take 0:06:58.920 --> 0:07:01.440 a risk of losing your If you just you know, 0:07:01.720 --> 0:07:03.600 run along mooing with the rest of the herd, you're 0:07:03.600 --> 0:07:04.800 gonna be fine. 0:07:04.960 --> 0:07:09.560 Right, So Nate Silver, the great respected pollster, tweeting about 0:07:09.600 --> 0:07:11.120 this lot, and he's gotten in a whole bunch of 0:07:11.120 --> 0:07:13.320 fights with a lot of other polling organizations over this 0:07:13.360 --> 0:07:16.400 over the last four or five days. But he said, 0:07:16.800 --> 0:07:21.960 waiting is a your polls to try to bring them 0:07:21.960 --> 0:07:23.680 in the line. Is a form of hurting. It's a 0:07:23.680 --> 0:07:26.480 way to ensure your polls never get too far out 0:07:26.480 --> 0:07:30.000 of line with the consensus at any time or the 0:07:30.000 --> 0:07:33.280 previous election. And it's just, you know, it's like what 0:07:33.360 --> 0:07:36.200 you just described, it's just it keeps you out of trouble. 0:07:37.120 --> 0:07:41.120 Yeah. Yeah, And I don't think anybody cares. But just 0:07:41.240 --> 0:07:44.680 very briefly, the point is that the rub is trying 0:07:44.720 --> 0:07:48.160 to predict turnout who's actually going to turnout? And if 0:07:48.280 --> 0:07:51.480 using your turnout algorithm, you have Trump ahead by seven 0:07:51.680 --> 0:07:56.240 like just coming out, you'll think, oh, our turnout algorithm 0:07:56.280 --> 0:07:59.280 must be wrong. Let's go ahead and tweak that. And 0:07:59.400 --> 0:08:03.200 nobody accuses you of tweaking the ultimate result. But that's 0:08:03.200 --> 0:08:05.520 what you've done. You've seen the ultimate result and you've 0:08:06.160 --> 0:08:09.160 reverse engineered a more run of the mill numbers so 0:08:09.200 --> 0:08:12.679 you don't lose your job. So quit obsessing with holes. 0:08:12.720 --> 0:08:16.720 America well, yeah, we have to because they're not actually 0:08:16.760 --> 0:08:19.120 giving us information, is the thing. So, as Brett Behar 0:08:19.160 --> 0:08:24.400 said on Fox This Morning, there are four results that 0:08:24.440 --> 0:08:28.600 are possible. Trump by a little Harris, by a little Trump, 0:08:28.600 --> 0:08:30.640 and a landslide, Harrison a landslide. 0:08:31.040 --> 0:08:33.240 Those are really your four. I mean, it's just that 0:08:33.400 --> 0:08:34.840 it's gonna be those things. 0:08:34.880 --> 0:08:37.480 It's gonna be like a solid win for one of 0:08:37.559 --> 0:08:39.199 the other or really close for one of the other. 0:08:39.480 --> 0:08:43.360 In other words, we haven't got the slightest idea going 0:08:43.360 --> 0:08:45.200 into tomorrow how it's going to turn out. I know, 0:08:45.280 --> 0:08:48.400 I don't feel any more like it's one way or 0:08:48.440 --> 0:08:52.320 the other. I will be surprised if Trump loses, but 0:08:52.400 --> 0:08:54.559 I don't know if I've got a solid reason for. 0:08:54.520 --> 0:08:55.160 Why I think that. 0:08:56.920 --> 0:08:59.440 No, I've feeled that question many many times in real 0:08:59.480 --> 0:09:01.319 life lately. Joe, what do you think is going to happen? 0:09:01.440 --> 0:09:03.400 I say, I think Trump's gonna win, but my level 0:09:03.400 --> 0:09:05.840 of certainty is roughly fifty two forty eight. 0:09:06.080 --> 0:09:08.240 There is you can make the argument like we did 0:09:08.360 --> 0:09:08.760 last week. 0:09:08.800 --> 0:09:12.320 I mean, he can make the argument that women continue 0:09:12.360 --> 0:09:14.800 to be so motivated by the Dobbs decision that you 0:09:14.840 --> 0:09:17.480 get some really crazy turnouts and results like have happened 0:09:17.480 --> 0:09:19.600 in a whole bunch of states in the last couple 0:09:19.640 --> 0:09:22.600 of years, including my home state of Kansas, which has 0:09:22.600 --> 0:09:24.640 always been pretty red. But man, they had a heck 0:09:24.679 --> 0:09:27.520 of a turnout on the blue side for the last 0:09:27.559 --> 0:09:28.959 go around of abortion voting. 0:09:29.280 --> 0:09:30.320 So that could happen. 0:09:30.800 --> 0:09:33.720 Fellas, if your wife is really fired up about that issue, 0:09:33.840 --> 0:09:35.680 is going to vote for Kamala Harris, here's what you do. 0:09:35.800 --> 0:09:39.839 Tell her Calm down, Calm down, because that always works 0:09:39.880 --> 0:09:40.559 with women. 0:09:41.120 --> 0:09:46.240 Or it's really oversimplify it. Trump could win easily and 0:09:46.480 --> 0:09:50.000 it'll be Yeah, because my freaking groceries costs one hundred 0:09:50.000 --> 0:09:52.160 and fifty bucks the other day the end. 0:09:52.800 --> 0:09:55.360 Yeah, no kidding, How was he How was she gonna 0:09:55.360 --> 0:09:56.160 win with that?

All sorts of good stuff once again. 0:11:11.640 --> 0:11:14.360 You use that code code Armstrong the prize picks app 0:11:14.400 --> 0:11:16.400 prize picks, run your game. 0:11:17.360 --> 0:11:18.240 No, yeah, so you. 0:11:18.120 --> 0:11:20.680 Were getting some text about that. I don't think it 0:11:20.800 --> 0:11:24.080 is biased. I don't think it's poles that really want 0:11:24.120 --> 0:11:26.560 Common to win. I think is what Joe described and 0:11:26.600 --> 0:11:29.080 what Nate Silver is describing. It's just we don't want 0:11:29.120 --> 0:11:31.880 to stick our necks out. If everybody's saying it's close, 0:11:31.920 --> 0:11:34.120 we're going to say it's close to then continue to 0:11:34.160 --> 0:11:36.960 be a viable organization in the world of polling. 0:11:37.640 --> 0:11:39.600 Yeah, they're like other people. They just want to keep 0:11:39.640 --> 0:11:43.160 their jobs. Yeah, well, I had a charming anecdote, but 0:11:43.200 --> 0:11:44.400 we don't really have time. 0:11:44.559 --> 0:11:47.080 We've got an hour and forty two minutes. 0:11:47.559 --> 0:11:50.680 What wait a minute, show me the contract. He's right, 0:11:51.440 --> 0:11:54.880 all sorts of great stuff, gender bending, madness, California's crumbling. 0:11:55.280 --> 0:11:56.480 What do you want out of me? I got it 0:11:56.480 --> 0:11:57.640 all for you? Do you got it? 0:11:58.120 --> 0:12:00.240 What do you think of Trump having that entire a 0:12:00.320 --> 0:12:03.280 women's sports team up with him on the I thought 0:12:03.280 --> 0:12:05.880 it was brilliant. That is boy, you talk about an 0:12:05.880 --> 0:12:07.760 issue that is an easy win. 0:12:08.440 --> 0:12:11.000 And granted I am a zealot on the issue of 0:12:11.040 --> 0:12:16.320 protecting women, protecting women's spaces, protecting women's sports. But it 0:12:16.440 --> 0:12:20.240 is growing and growing and growing. It's powerful and it's primal. 0:12:20.760 --> 0:12:24.679 You don't have to explain tax rates to people. Dudes 0:12:24.720 --> 0:12:27.199 are playing in girls' sports and beating the hell out 0:12:27.240 --> 0:12:30.280 of them. It's pretty easy to grasp. Yeah, we got 0:12:30.320 --> 0:12:33.240 an update on the San Jose State women's volleyball thing too, 0:12:33.280 --> 0:12:37.080 that continues to grow. That could be the no offense 0:12:37.120 --> 0:12:41.280 intended on any level, but the Rosa Parks awareness growing 0:12:41.960 --> 0:12:44.680 test case that makes people think, hey, this isn't right. 0:12:44.760 --> 0:12:48.359 Yeah, definitely could be a lot on the way. Stay here. 0:12:51.000 --> 0:12:53.520 Kamala herself shows up on Saturday Night Live in the 0:12:53.559 --> 0:12:57.400 open and then the FCC commissioner came out and said 0:12:57.400 --> 0:12:58.040 equal time. 0:12:58.160 --> 0:12:59.640 You can't do that, it's against rules. 0:13:00.120 --> 0:13:03.160 NBC had to give Trump some time during Sunday Night 0:13:03.160 --> 0:13:05.960 Football last night, which I think is a bigger gift 0:13:05.960 --> 0:13:10.320 than Saturday Night Live and the NASCAR too, and so 0:13:10.360 --> 0:13:14.079 I think that's a win for Trump there. Anyhow, they 0:13:14.080 --> 0:13:17.960 did their usual impersonations. Maybe we'll play the Trump impersonation later. 0:13:17.960 --> 0:13:20.600 It's pretty funny Dana Carvey doing Biden here. 0:13:21.960 --> 0:13:29.080 Oh there, it's me. 0:13:29.720 --> 0:13:34.400 No Joe thank you for coming here to support me. 0:13:34.600 --> 0:13:38.320 Marsh my train was stopping here, so I'm being serious 0:13:38.400 --> 0:13:41.520 right now. And by the way, just good to be 0:13:41.559 --> 0:13:44.120 back on my home turf. Guess what, As you know, 0:13:44.480 --> 0:13:46.600 I'm from the part of Pennsylvania, there's a part of 0:13:46.600 --> 0:13:47.680 the state of Delaware. 0:13:48.960 --> 0:13:51.640 Well, so thank you so much for all you've done 0:13:51.720 --> 0:13:52.640 for my campaign. 0:13:53.160 --> 0:13:55.200 I can still do more and get out there and 0:13:55.240 --> 0:13:56.360 I can say more things. 0:13:56.440 --> 0:14:00.360 Thank you so much, astralume time for my campaign. 0:14:00.559 --> 0:14:01.320 All right, I get it. 0:14:01.360 --> 0:14:04.040 Come on, let's get real proud of you. 0:14:04.040 --> 0:14:07.240 You got nothing to worry about. Come on, thanks Joe. 0:14:07.480 --> 0:14:09.000 All right, you know what, I saw a bunch of 0:14:09.040 --> 0:14:11.240 reporters and cams out there. I'm gonna go raf. 0:14:16.240 --> 0:14:20.120 The fact that the current president is being portrayed as 0:14:20.120 --> 0:14:21.840 a guy who just locks up and stairs at the 0:14:21.840 --> 0:14:26.280 camera and everybody laughs because it's true is an interesting 0:14:26.320 --> 0:14:27.040 moment in history. 0:14:27.760 --> 0:14:31.520 I read something really delicious about the finger pointing that's 0:14:31.560 --> 0:14:35.240 going on before the election has decided about who lost 0:14:35.320 --> 0:14:37.800 it for Harris, which is, you know, interesting in itself. 0:14:37.800 --> 0:14:40.680 But one of the signs of that fracas is the 0:14:40.680 --> 0:14:43.920 Biden loyalists who are complaining that they should have used 0:14:44.000 --> 0:14:46.840 him more and gotten them out there, and I'm thinking, 0:14:47.640 --> 0:14:50.000 what are you talking about. Well, he came out like 0:14:50.080 --> 0:14:52.360 saying the you know the the Cowboys would have won 0:14:52.400 --> 0:14:56.200 if they utilized the drop kick. What. 0:14:57.200 --> 0:14:59.840 Well, he came out twice in the last several days. 0:15:00.080 --> 0:15:03.600 One he made the they're all garbage comment that got 0:15:03.600 --> 0:15:04.920 her in trouble, and then this one. 0:15:05.120 --> 0:15:07.880 But I'm serious, these are the kind of guys you're 0:15:07.920 --> 0:15:09.000 like to smacking. 0:15:08.720 --> 0:15:11.120 Ass I've got portrayed. 0:15:11.120 --> 0:15:13.800 I think that actually was good Biden stuff for his 0:15:13.960 --> 0:15:16.760 crowd that hates Trump and everything. I think that was 0:15:17.120 --> 0:15:21.280 typical Joe Biden, tough guy talking to union people's stuff. 0:15:21.280 --> 0:15:23.600 I don't think that was a little homo erotic for me. 0:15:26.040 --> 0:15:29.960 I don't see that as a whichever way you swing right, No, no, 0:15:30.040 --> 0:15:32.440 it just seems silly to me. The idea that this 0:15:32.520 --> 0:15:36.600 guy would be the candidate at this point, it's horrifying. 0:15:36.760 --> 0:15:38.520 In a couple of months ago, they were telling us, no, 0:15:38.600 --> 0:15:41.920 it's absolutely I can't even keep up with him. Just idiotic. 0:15:42.720 --> 0:15:46.200 Speaking of Joe Biden and the Bidenomics, at least at Finley, 0:15:47.240 --> 0:15:50.880 one of the trio of absolutely terrific female columnists for 0:15:50.880 --> 0:15:56.080 The Wall Street journal with a great takedown not only 0:15:56.160 --> 0:15:58.560 of the media, but the explanation of something that the 0:15:59.080 --> 0:16:03.440 lefty media just can't comprehend. And that's what the economists 0:16:03.480 --> 0:16:09.120 called the irrational gloominess of the American voter in terms 0:16:09.200 --> 0:16:14.760 of economics, what Yes, Yeah, outpouring of similar commentary, the 0:16:15.000 --> 0:16:19.240 economy is glorious, as communist columnist Paul Krugman of The 0:16:19.240 --> 0:16:22.040 New York Times, if you disagree, you're a dense partisan, 0:16:22.200 --> 0:16:26.200 refuses to give prize in Briden credit for anything, And 0:16:26.560 --> 0:16:28.680 Alicia Finley says, yeah, I've gotten a lot of emails 0:16:28.720 --> 0:16:31.320 to that effect too. But then she points out, and 0:16:31.360 --> 0:16:35.800 this should be known, economy Biden's economy has been glorious 0:16:35.800 --> 0:16:40.440 for affluent liberals. It's been awful for the working class. 0:16:40.480 --> 0:16:45.080 Socioeconomic disparities have grown owing to the policies that were 0:16:45.120 --> 0:16:47.920 supposed to shrink them. The well to do got wealthier 0:16:48.160 --> 0:16:51.560 while the rest got poorer. Long and short of it, 0:16:51.600 --> 0:16:54.520 and it's proved out by many statistics is if you 0:16:54.600 --> 0:16:57.720 are on the wealthier end of things, all of your 0:16:57.800 --> 0:17:00.240 stocks and four oh one k's and investments and the 0:17:00.320 --> 0:17:04.480 value of your home they've all skyrocketed. But if you're 0:17:04.760 --> 0:17:08.680 just living paycheck to paycheck, even reasonably well, paycheck to paycheck. 0:17:09.000 --> 0:17:11.119 All you know is that your prices are up like 0:17:11.160 --> 0:17:13.360 twenty percent, your pays up half that well. 0:17:13.359 --> 0:17:16.280 I sent Joe a thing from the inflation calculator yesterday 0:17:16.280 --> 0:17:19.520 about salaries and how much they've gone down since twenty nineteen. 0:17:20.000 --> 0:17:21.280 What your salaries were? 0:17:21.440 --> 0:17:24.159 You want to depress yourself, Take your cup salary or, 0:17:24.960 --> 0:17:27.480 assuming it hasn't changed much like a lot of people's 0:17:27.720 --> 0:17:30.880 in the last three years, plug it into an inflation calculator, 0:17:30.920 --> 0:17:33.040 and see how much less you make now than you 0:17:33.080 --> 0:17:34.400 did just a couple of years ago. 0:17:34.600 --> 0:17:36.879 It's shocking. It's shocking. 0:17:37.680 --> 0:17:41.520 So spending among folks making less than sixty thousand dollars 0:17:41.600 --> 0:17:44.320 is up eight percent. If you make more than one 0:17:44.359 --> 0:17:48.960 hundred thousand dollars, it's up seventeen percent. In short, the 0:17:49.000 --> 0:17:51.080 more money you have, the more you're throwing it around 0:17:51.119 --> 0:17:53.240 and living a pretty good life and doing fine. But 0:17:53.280 --> 0:17:59.480 working class in america's absolutely not and lefty journalism doesn't 0:17:59.480 --> 0:18:04.720 have any friends in that world, so they're unaware of it. 0:18:04.720 --> 0:18:05.360 It's amazing. 0:18:07.200 --> 0:18:09.159 We've got a lot more to catch you up on 0:18:09.240 --> 0:18:11.280 with the election tomorrow, when will we know what to. 0:18:11.200 --> 0:18:16.560 Result arm Strong and Getty. So on election night, don't 0:18:16.560 --> 0:18:17.520 expect to know the winner. 0:18:17.840 --> 0:18:20.080 We probably will have a pretty good idea who won 0:18:20.119 --> 0:18:22.320 the presidency, maybe around Thursday or Friday. 0:18:22.800 --> 0:18:23.080 Hmm. 0:18:23.920 --> 0:18:27.960 Okay, if that's the way it starts to unfold tomorrow, 0:18:28.040 --> 0:18:29.760 I might just turn off the TV because you will, 0:18:29.800 --> 0:18:35.440 you will, I think, literally be taking in no useful 0:18:35.440 --> 0:18:39.439 information about the presidential election. I mean, it'll all be 0:18:39.560 --> 0:18:44.440 just conjecture and the you know, the the what if 0:18:44.440 --> 0:18:46.719 this happens, this could happen, If this happens there, you know, 0:18:46.800 --> 0:18:49.199 just and if you enjoy that, fine, but there's no 0:18:49.320 --> 0:18:49.879 point in it. 0:18:51.040 --> 0:18:52.560 So I'm it might be a. 0:18:52.560 --> 0:18:55.720 Really early night for for turning off the coverage if 0:18:56.880 --> 0:18:58.760 unless it's going to be a blowout one way or another. 0:18:58.880 --> 0:19:01.359 Here's something I just came across I hadn't thought of though. 0:19:02.720 --> 0:19:04.800 As we know, this could be a hell of a 0:19:04.920 --> 0:19:10.200 legal battle if Harris loses or is losing. The Democrats 0:19:10.240 --> 0:19:14.159 are the party of lawyers and lawsuits, and they could 0:19:14.200 --> 0:19:17.359 really turn this up to eleven in terms of never 0:19:17.680 --> 0:19:19.399 ending challenges all over the place. 0:19:20.000 --> 0:19:23.520 Election deniers, Oh, what was I watching last night? 0:19:23.600 --> 0:19:23.760 Was that? 0:19:25.200 --> 0:19:27.520 Yeah? That was the that was the sixty minutes piece. 0:19:28.240 --> 0:19:30.920 So they went the entire time as far as I 0:19:30.960 --> 0:19:35.960 could tell, because that segment was actually about trying to 0:19:36.000 --> 0:19:42.040 convince people that the election is secure and how difficult 0:19:42.080 --> 0:19:43.639 it would be to cheat and everything like that, and 0:19:43.680 --> 0:19:45.439 what to do about all the people who claim it 0:19:45.480 --> 0:19:48.520 was stolen, and they kept going with example after example 0:19:48.560 --> 0:19:54.280 of Republicans, never once mentioned all the times Democrats have 0:19:54.359 --> 0:20:00.119 claimed stolen elections. Freaking Stacy Abrams became the Democrat at 0:20:00.480 --> 0:20:03.879 rock Star by claiming in Georgia that she was the 0:20:03.920 --> 0:20:05.000 true governor. 0:20:05.240 --> 0:20:06.400 Right for years. 0:20:07.160 --> 0:20:09.880 Yeah, yeah, says if they're shameless liars. 0:20:10.040 --> 0:20:11.520 And they didn't even mention that. 0:20:12.640 --> 0:20:16.679 Wow, well they're crappy and I hate them. So a 0:20:16.680 --> 0:20:19.000 few stories that are not election related, but I thought 0:20:19.040 --> 0:20:22.359 you might find interesting. There's been a giant scam four 0:20:22.359 --> 0:20:28.280 point two billion dollars ripped off of Medicare by a 0:20:28.359 --> 0:20:33.639 variety of insurers who offer private plans under Medicare, known 0:20:33.680 --> 0:20:38.520 as Medicare Advantage. They send nurses to people's homes to 0:20:38.720 --> 0:20:42.719 just check them out, and then in astounding numbers, the 0:20:42.840 --> 0:20:46.560 nurses come back and say, yeah, yeah, Joe, Gitty's got 0:20:46.680 --> 0:20:51.119 a sore left elbow syndrome. So yeah, Medicare is gonna 0:20:51.119 --> 0:20:54.439 pay an extra nineteen hundred dollars a year for us 0:20:54.480 --> 0:20:59.080 to take care of Joe Getty. And in thousands and 0:20:59.200 --> 0:21:03.360
