0:00:00.400 --> 0:00:03.240
<v Speaker 1>Native Laandpod is a production of iHeartRadio and partnership with

0:00:03.279 --> 0:00:04.360
<v Speaker 1>Recent Choice Medium.

0:00:04.920 --> 0:00:10.480
<v Speaker 2>Welcome Welcome, Welcome, Welcome, Welcome, Welcome, Welcome home. Y'all. This

0:00:10.560 --> 0:00:13.440
<v Speaker 2>is another edition of Native lamppid, but it's a mini

0:00:13.480 --> 0:00:16.959
<v Speaker 2>pod And today we are doing election projections despite the

0:00:17.000 --> 0:00:20.159
<v Speaker 2>fact that sadly DraftKings hasn't been spark smart enough to

0:00:20.200 --> 0:00:24.360
<v Speaker 2>sponsor our show. Nevertheless, we are betting women and men today.

0:00:24.480 --> 0:00:28.360
<v Speaker 2>So we are we gonna place our wagers on who

0:00:28.440 --> 0:00:31.720
<v Speaker 2>we think is gonna win the election and why and

0:00:32.920 --> 0:00:35.160
<v Speaker 2>what do we do if Donald Trump wins? So that's

0:00:35.159 --> 0:00:37.240
<v Speaker 2>the podcast. What we doing? Who's kicking us off?

0:00:38.440 --> 0:00:42.080
<v Speaker 1>I just want to say, I one do not believe

0:00:42.080 --> 0:00:44.960
<v Speaker 1>Donald Trump will win, but I want to say I

0:00:45.000 --> 0:00:48.920
<v Speaker 1>feel that way not based on any scientific reasons. I

0:00:49.000 --> 0:00:52.040
<v Speaker 1>feel that way based on the sheer will of black women.

0:00:53.760 --> 0:00:58.279
<v Speaker 1>The we are spiritual beings having a human experience, as

0:00:58.320 --> 0:01:01.400
<v Speaker 1>Loatasha Brown says, and I just I don't My mind

0:01:01.480 --> 0:01:06.640
<v Speaker 1>can't compute anything else. I think the media has intentionality

0:01:06.680 --> 0:01:08.880
<v Speaker 1>around creating these narratives around the.

0:01:08.920 --> 0:01:09.760
<v Speaker 3>Race is so tight.

0:01:10.120 --> 0:01:12.959
<v Speaker 1>Y'all know how I feel about polls, People introducing polls

0:01:12.959 --> 0:01:16.520
<v Speaker 1>and like it's fifteen poles a day, saying fifteen different things,

0:01:16.560 --> 0:01:18.960
<v Speaker 1>and it's meant to agitate, It's meant to keep us

0:01:19.040 --> 0:01:22.000
<v Speaker 1>on edge when if we all just focused on I'm

0:01:22.040 --> 0:01:24.280
<v Speaker 1>gonna vote on election Day, I'm gonna do early voting.

0:01:24.319 --> 0:01:25.440
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna get other people.

0:01:25.240 --> 0:01:25.880
<v Speaker 3>To the polls.

0:01:26.240 --> 0:01:28.800
<v Speaker 1>That's our only black job right now. So that's what

0:01:28.840 --> 0:01:31.760
<v Speaker 1>I'm focused on. I do not think we will see

0:01:32.400 --> 0:01:38.040
<v Speaker 1>another Donald Trump presidency. That is my declaration. Is beyond

0:01:38.040 --> 0:01:41.800
<v Speaker 1>my hope. It is my declaration. So that's how I

0:01:41.800 --> 0:01:42.480
<v Speaker 1>feel about it.

0:01:42.800 --> 0:01:44.880
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Andrew Gilli.

0:01:44.680 --> 0:01:45.480
<v Speaker 3>How you, Angela.

0:01:45.560 --> 0:01:47.760
<v Speaker 1>You've been talking about your angst Angela, so I want

0:01:47.800 --> 0:01:52.600
<v Speaker 1>to hearing.

0:01:53.480 --> 0:01:56.320
<v Speaker 2>Okay, So I have a lot of inks, but I

0:01:56.360 --> 0:01:59.520
<v Speaker 2>think most of this has to do with my control issues.

0:02:00.160 --> 0:02:06.000
<v Speaker 2>I do not like for things to be close. Close

0:02:06.120 --> 0:02:11.440
<v Speaker 2>games give me anxiety, and overtime after overtime after overtime,

0:02:11.560 --> 0:02:13.359
<v Speaker 2>sports experts you know all about that.

0:02:13.880 --> 0:02:15.840
<v Speaker 3>I know that feeling. Girl, I don't like it either.

0:02:16.400 --> 0:02:19.160
<v Speaker 2>That gives me anxiety, and so I like for things

0:02:19.200 --> 0:02:21.960
<v Speaker 2>to be like it's a clean break. We like know

0:02:22.040 --> 0:02:26.080
<v Speaker 2>exactly where things stand, and unfortunately for us right now,

0:02:26.160 --> 0:02:29.320
<v Speaker 2>that is not where things stand. I think even traditional

0:02:29.360 --> 0:02:32.240
<v Speaker 2>posters are being a lot more conservative in their approach

0:02:33.120 --> 0:02:38.160
<v Speaker 2>based on what happened in twenty sixteen, frankly with Hillary Clinton,

0:02:38.400 --> 0:02:41.320
<v Speaker 2>and while she did win the popular vote, as we

0:02:41.360 --> 0:02:43.200
<v Speaker 2>talk about all the time on this show, by three

0:02:43.240 --> 0:02:46.440
<v Speaker 2>million votes, she did not win the electoral college. So

0:02:47.040 --> 0:02:50.560
<v Speaker 2>you know, when I think about the states in play, Michigan,

0:02:50.880 --> 0:02:56.519
<v Speaker 2>I'm worried about the uncommitted vote, and given the size

0:02:56.800 --> 0:03:00.680
<v Speaker 2>of the electorate, the number of votes that Hillary Clinton

0:03:00.680 --> 0:03:03.799
<v Speaker 2>lost Michigan by in twenty sixteen, I'm really worried that

0:03:03.880 --> 0:03:10.399
<v Speaker 2>the uncommitted haven't been properly addressed. Around the Israeli Gaza,

0:03:10.880 --> 0:03:16.720
<v Speaker 2>the Palestinian conflict. I have some concerns about Arizona. I

0:03:16.800 --> 0:03:20.320
<v Speaker 2>have concerns about Pennsylvania, and I mean, for a number

0:03:20.360 --> 0:03:24.520
<v Speaker 2>of different reasons, working class voters who are black, brown,

0:03:24.560 --> 0:03:27.960
<v Speaker 2>and white. I have concerns about the black mail vote

0:03:27.960 --> 0:03:30.760
<v Speaker 2>in particular in Pennsylvania and it being kind of the

0:03:30.800 --> 0:03:33.960
<v Speaker 2>tie breaking the just enough to get over the hump.

0:03:35.600 --> 0:03:42.839
<v Speaker 2>I have concerns about, I said, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Arizona, Wisconsin, nov.

0:03:43.040 --> 0:03:45.320
<v Speaker 2>I feel a little bit better about Wisconsin. I'm also

0:03:45.360 --> 0:03:48.480
<v Speaker 2>worried about and not just for Kamala Harrison, Tim Wallas,

0:03:48.480 --> 0:03:52.080
<v Speaker 2>but also for Tammy Baldwin, you know. So, I mean,

0:03:52.120 --> 0:03:56.760
<v Speaker 2>I do have some concerns numerically, and at this point

0:03:56.800 --> 0:03:59.680
<v Speaker 2>of the election season, y'all, it really is just about

0:04:00.080 --> 0:04:03.600
<v Speaker 2>who can turn out the votes. So I think that

0:04:03.680 --> 0:04:05.080
<v Speaker 2>there have been a lot of time, There's been a

0:04:05.080 --> 0:04:08.600
<v Speaker 2>lot of time, including for me, focused on undecided voters.

0:04:09.560 --> 0:04:11.760
<v Speaker 2>I'm not off that yet, but I do know the

0:04:11.800 --> 0:04:14.400
<v Speaker 2>people that are clear eyed about who they want to

0:04:14.440 --> 0:04:17.280
<v Speaker 2>vote for, please go to the polls, go early in

0:04:17.320 --> 0:04:20.320
<v Speaker 2>case something happens on election day. We have a good

0:04:20.320 --> 0:04:22.200
<v Speaker 2>friend of ours, Aaron, who was talking about you know,

0:04:22.279 --> 0:04:24.640
<v Speaker 2>she wanted that moment on election day. We're like, girl,

0:04:24.640 --> 0:04:28.000
<v Speaker 2>if you don't grow early, it's that same kind of thing.

0:04:28.040 --> 0:04:30.120
<v Speaker 2>We just want to make sure that there are no mishaps,

0:04:30.240 --> 0:04:33.480
<v Speaker 2>no mistakes, no threats, no intimidation, none of that going on.

0:04:34.080 --> 0:04:37.920
<v Speaker 2>And I think my biggest concern, honestly, y'all, is not

0:04:38.160 --> 0:04:41.720
<v Speaker 2>just about the victory. I do believe that Kamala Harris

0:04:41.720 --> 0:04:44.120
<v Speaker 2>and Tim Walls have what it takes to get us

0:04:44.120 --> 0:04:48.000
<v Speaker 2>across the finish line. But I'm deeply concerned about what

0:04:48.240 --> 0:04:52.640
<v Speaker 2>happens when people embody the threats that they think they are,

0:04:53.600 --> 0:04:56.720
<v Speaker 2>what kind of violence ensues from the other side, what

0:04:56.839 --> 0:04:59.320
<v Speaker 2>ways in which they might intimidate voters, the way that

0:04:59.360 --> 0:05:01.760
<v Speaker 2>they've been geared up for that now for well over

0:05:01.760 --> 0:05:04.960
<v Speaker 2>a year, the things that they've put in place in

0:05:05.080 --> 0:05:08.200
<v Speaker 2>states to challenge the vote, All of those things come

0:05:08.240 --> 0:05:10.800
<v Speaker 2>into play. And so one of the biggest concerns I

0:05:10.839 --> 0:05:13.560
<v Speaker 2>have is the fact that I fully believe this election

0:05:13.680 --> 0:05:17.159
<v Speaker 2>won't be decided on election night. I think it's going

0:05:17.240 --> 0:05:18.680
<v Speaker 2>to be a battle, and it's not going to just

0:05:18.680 --> 0:05:21.240
<v Speaker 2>be a slog with the folks who count the ballots

0:05:21.279 --> 0:05:23.840
<v Speaker 2>in the states. It's also going to be a slog

0:05:24.120 --> 0:05:26.640
<v Speaker 2>when it comes time for January sixth, twenty twenty five,

0:05:26.839 --> 0:05:29.480
<v Speaker 2>whether or not folks will agree to certify election results,

0:05:29.480 --> 0:05:32.480
<v Speaker 2>which when they've been pointedly asked, they've not been able

0:05:32.480 --> 0:05:35.200
<v Speaker 2>to answer the question. So I got aanks that I

0:05:35.279 --> 0:05:37.719
<v Speaker 2>think I'm caring for about, you know, two months worth

0:05:37.760 --> 0:05:40.919
<v Speaker 2>eggs November December and Janimary.

0:05:41.080 --> 0:05:44.120
<v Speaker 1>Well, didn't I just say I When I say I'm confident,

0:05:44.400 --> 0:05:47.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm confident about the will of the people. Now when

0:05:47.200 --> 0:05:48.880
<v Speaker 1>we come to I agree with you, we won't know

0:05:48.920 --> 0:05:51.600
<v Speaker 1>the election results that night. The fake electors are a

0:05:51.640 --> 0:05:55.920
<v Speaker 1>concern I think combined right now election deniers and the

0:05:56.080 --> 0:06:01.240
<v Speaker 1>twenty twenty fake electors right now represent thirty seven percent

0:06:02.720 --> 0:06:06.000
<v Speaker 1>of the total eighty two members of the electoral College.

0:06:06.240 --> 0:06:09.440
<v Speaker 1>That is a legitimate concern. I mean, legally can't will

0:06:09.440 --> 0:06:11.520
<v Speaker 1>they vote against the will of the people. So that

0:06:11.560 --> 0:06:13.560
<v Speaker 1>definitely gives me ankst. I should be clear about that.

0:06:13.880 --> 0:06:15.720
<v Speaker 1>I think she will win the popular vote. I think

0:06:15.760 --> 0:06:18.800
<v Speaker 1>she will win the swing states. Will people accept the

0:06:18.839 --> 0:06:21.080
<v Speaker 1>election results they don't like, But a lot of people

0:06:21.080 --> 0:06:24.159
<v Speaker 1>are concerned that she doesn't have it in the bag yet,

0:06:24.200 --> 0:06:25.640
<v Speaker 1>and I think that's a good place to be.

0:06:25.720 --> 0:06:28.480
<v Speaker 3>So all y'all who feel that way, you're not alone.

0:06:29.200 --> 0:06:32.000
<v Speaker 3>But I just feel I don't know, I just feel

0:06:32.040 --> 0:06:32.320
<v Speaker 3>like the.

0:06:32.279 --> 0:06:35.640
<v Speaker 1>Ancestors pushing me at the back, like no, girl, it's time.

0:06:35.880 --> 0:06:38.800
<v Speaker 4>It's time, I think.

0:06:38.880 --> 0:06:40.960
<v Speaker 5>And I appreciate y'all sharing your thoughts on that because

0:06:40.960 --> 0:06:45.360
<v Speaker 5>they're influencing me some. But I am checking in with

0:06:45.440 --> 0:06:49.160
<v Speaker 5>my gut, and sometimes my head and my gut betray

0:06:49.240 --> 0:06:53.680
<v Speaker 5>one another. Yes, indeed, I had a gut feeling the

0:06:53.680 --> 0:06:56.640
<v Speaker 5>morning I woke up in November of twenty eighteen, when

0:06:56.640 --> 0:06:58.560
<v Speaker 5>I was on the ballot for governor in Florida. I

0:06:58.560 --> 0:07:01.520
<v Speaker 5>had a gut feeling that didn't match my head and

0:07:01.600 --> 0:07:07.320
<v Speaker 5>everything going into it. On in twenty sixteen, I was

0:07:07.640 --> 0:07:11.960
<v Speaker 5>in New York, you know, at the Javit Center, and

0:07:14.720 --> 0:07:17.840
<v Speaker 5>at that time the idea of a Trump presidency had

0:07:17.840 --> 0:07:21.040
<v Speaker 5>not even entered into my thinking. It was nowhere near.

0:07:21.120 --> 0:07:24.000
<v Speaker 5>I was so thrown off balance that I mean, it

0:07:24.040 --> 0:07:25.960
<v Speaker 5>was just I'm sure a lot of us were. But

0:07:26.160 --> 0:07:28.720
<v Speaker 5>my gut didn't say he didn't warn me, and my

0:07:28.800 --> 0:07:31.560
<v Speaker 5>head schrazelle didn't suggest anything different.

0:07:34.000 --> 0:07:35.720
<v Speaker 4>We're two weeks out from.

0:07:35.520 --> 0:07:38.400
<v Speaker 5>The election, and I will just quickly say where my

0:07:38.520 --> 0:07:41.800
<v Speaker 5>concern lies. My concerns lie right now with white women

0:07:43.400 --> 0:07:46.320
<v Speaker 5>and how they will perform. If they are gonna do

0:07:46.440 --> 0:07:50.200
<v Speaker 5>fifty three percent for Trump, then I think we lose.

0:07:50.240 --> 0:07:54.600
<v Speaker 5>Given the gender gap that exists right now, we need

0:07:54.600 --> 0:07:58.000
<v Speaker 5>them desperately to check in with their conscience. We need

0:07:58.040 --> 0:08:02.160
<v Speaker 5>them desperately to put them so first, not their sons,

0:08:02.480 --> 0:08:07.920
<v Speaker 5>not their husbands, not their fathers, but themselves. I worry

0:08:08.000 --> 0:08:12.440
<v Speaker 5>about an enthusiasm gap on the left if all of

0:08:12.520 --> 0:08:15.320
<v Speaker 5>us truly know what the consequences are, if the sky

0:08:15.400 --> 0:08:19.560
<v Speaker 5>is falling every election then why is the sky falling

0:08:19.600 --> 0:08:21.480
<v Speaker 5>this time? And why is it falling going to be

0:08:21.520 --> 0:08:24.440
<v Speaker 5>different from me good batter in between? So I think

0:08:24.440 --> 0:08:28.360
<v Speaker 5>there's an enthusiasm issue that has to be closed, and

0:08:28.400 --> 0:08:31.320
<v Speaker 5>I don't think it's been closed yet. And then my

0:08:31.480 --> 0:08:37.480
<v Speaker 5>third big fear is the Senate. In the House, There's

0:08:37.520 --> 0:08:40.480
<v Speaker 5>a reason Donald Trump did rallies in New York City.

0:08:41.000 --> 0:08:46.120
<v Speaker 5>There are three very important pivotal congressional races that he

0:08:46.200 --> 0:08:50.520
<v Speaker 5>feels his presence if it could boost enough Republican enthusiasm

0:08:50.559 --> 0:08:53.840
<v Speaker 5>in those areas, could they hold those seats? In Florida,

0:08:54.520 --> 0:08:57.720
<v Speaker 5>Ronda Santis went against the legislature, but he had the courts,

0:08:57.720 --> 0:09:00.120
<v Speaker 5>and he drew his own maps, got rid of two

0:09:00.120 --> 0:09:03.880
<v Speaker 5>black seats, black access seats, and they were replaced with

0:09:05.040 --> 0:09:07.959
<v Speaker 5>a total of three white access seats, and all three

0:09:07.960 --> 0:09:11.079
<v Speaker 5>of those seats went Republican, from Democrat to Republican. And

0:09:11.120 --> 0:09:16.200
<v Speaker 5>that is how Speaker Johnson is. Speaker Johnson, I worry

0:09:16.200 --> 0:09:20.959
<v Speaker 5>about the House, and I fear that the Senate is

0:09:22.120 --> 0:09:30.400
<v Speaker 5>already likely lost. And in that circumstance, the Trump win

0:09:31.280 --> 0:09:35.040
<v Speaker 5>would be absolutely detrimental to everything we believe and we

0:09:35.080 --> 0:09:40.880
<v Speaker 5>stand for the good thing about these three concerns. If

0:09:40.920 --> 0:09:43.439
<v Speaker 5>there was, is that there's still time to affect them.

0:09:43.960 --> 0:09:46.800
<v Speaker 5>There's still time for white women to decide for themselves

0:09:47.000 --> 0:09:49.040
<v Speaker 5>how it is they're going to affect the turnout of

0:09:49.040 --> 0:09:51.160
<v Speaker 5>this election, whether they want to stay clamped to the

0:09:51.200 --> 0:09:54.560
<v Speaker 5>past or define their own future. I still think there's

0:09:54.600 --> 0:09:58.200
<v Speaker 5>time on these House seats for the enthusiasm to build

0:09:58.800 --> 0:10:00.520
<v Speaker 5>that we need, and folks to show up and show

0:10:00.520 --> 0:10:03.760
<v Speaker 5>out and vote for their candidates. The choice and the

0:10:03.960 --> 0:10:10.640
<v Speaker 5>enthusiasms can still be addressed. If right now you are

0:10:10.679 --> 0:10:13.679
<v Speaker 5>busy worrying about what the poles are saying and not

0:10:13.760 --> 0:10:16.480
<v Speaker 5>doing anything to move people to the polls to change

0:10:16.520 --> 0:10:19.520
<v Speaker 5>Those poles are predictive. They say it gives you their

0:10:19.520 --> 0:10:22.240
<v Speaker 5>snapshots in time. But in some ways those trend lines

0:10:22.280 --> 0:10:24.960
<v Speaker 5>tell us where things may be headed. And if you're

0:10:25.000 --> 0:10:27.199
<v Speaker 5>watching that and we about to crash into a damn

0:10:27.320 --> 0:10:29.920
<v Speaker 5>brick wall, then I would do what I could to

0:10:29.960 --> 0:10:34.400
<v Speaker 5>avert the brick wall. And I think these warnings should

0:10:34.480 --> 0:10:36.800
<v Speaker 5>wake all of us up. This race is far too

0:10:36.920 --> 0:10:41.560
<v Speaker 5>close in too many key places, far too close, and y'all,

0:10:41.640 --> 0:10:44.400
<v Speaker 5>I can't even get to the after, because I think

0:10:44.440 --> 0:10:46.880
<v Speaker 5>the after is bound to be chaos. I think in

0:10:46.920 --> 0:10:49.280
<v Speaker 5>some ways Donald Trump is running for the presidency for

0:10:49.360 --> 0:10:52.239
<v Speaker 5>his freedom. But I also think he's running for chaos

0:10:52.480 --> 0:10:55.680
<v Speaker 5>to undermine whatever the outcome is, so that there is

0:10:55.679 --> 0:10:59.240
<v Speaker 5>a divide in this country, and that device continue continues

0:10:59.400 --> 0:11:03.079
<v Speaker 5>by helping to keep him out of jail, creating negotiating

0:11:03.160 --> 0:11:07.840
<v Speaker 5>room for some kind of a collapse if the opposition

0:11:07.920 --> 0:11:10.600
<v Speaker 5>is strong enough, some kind of a deal to be

0:11:10.640 --> 0:11:14.360
<v Speaker 5>made on his criminal piece here. And I know I

0:11:14.400 --> 0:11:17.360
<v Speaker 5>may sound conspiracy theorists here, but I think Donald Trump

0:11:17.360 --> 0:11:19.480
<v Speaker 5>all along has been running for his freedom. I do too,

0:11:19.760 --> 0:11:21.599
<v Speaker 5>and I think at the end, in the beginning of

0:11:21.679 --> 0:11:25.040
<v Speaker 5>the day, if there is a divide in this country,

0:11:25.080 --> 0:11:27.839
<v Speaker 5>he can marshal that divide towards some kind of negotiated

0:11:27.840 --> 0:11:31.720
<v Speaker 5>outcome for himself. Although that's bad for the country, but

0:11:31.760 --> 0:11:33.240
<v Speaker 5>I do think that those are the things.

0:11:33.080 --> 0:11:36.040
<v Speaker 1>That sort of can we Also, if he loses Andrew,

0:11:36.240 --> 0:11:39.720
<v Speaker 1>the Republican Party will abandon him. At that point it's like,

0:11:39.760 --> 0:11:42.200
<v Speaker 1>oh great, all right, well I'm not Trump is, but

0:11:42.320 --> 0:11:45.800
<v Speaker 1>Donald Trump, because at that point they can say, okay,

0:11:45.880 --> 0:11:47.880
<v Speaker 1>the problem with Trump is done. Like we got four

0:11:47.960 --> 0:11:51.000
<v Speaker 1>years of Vice President Harris, there's no need for us,

0:11:51.040 --> 0:11:53.960
<v Speaker 1>Like he doesn't have the vice grip on them that

0:11:54.000 --> 0:11:54.480
<v Speaker 1>he does.

0:11:54.600 --> 0:11:56.960
<v Speaker 5>Right now, if the people are still with him, he

0:11:57.040 --> 0:12:00.400
<v Speaker 5>will still be the touchelor leader of the party, and

0:12:00.440 --> 0:12:03.000
<v Speaker 5>they will bow to him just because they had a

0:12:03.080 --> 0:12:03.960
<v Speaker 5>chance to get rid of him.

0:12:04.080 --> 0:12:07.079
<v Speaker 4>He could have been old news before, except the people

0:12:07.160 --> 0:12:10.760
<v Speaker 4>that the party he built is loyal to him. This

0:12:10.840 --> 0:12:14.760
<v Speaker 4>is all again in the regiment of fascism. He is

0:12:14.800 --> 0:12:15.800
<v Speaker 4>the love the love leader.

0:12:15.840 --> 0:12:18.719
<v Speaker 1>You don't think it's fear of him becoming president again though.

0:12:18.520 --> 0:12:20.480
<v Speaker 5>He may never become president, but he may pick the

0:12:20.480 --> 0:12:21.840
<v Speaker 5>next one.

0:12:21.520 --> 0:12:22.880
<v Speaker 3>Ah, I see, good point.

0:12:23.000 --> 0:12:23.480
<v Speaker 1>Good point.

0:12:31.040 --> 0:12:33.720
<v Speaker 2>Okay, let me ask you guys this. Can we do

0:12:34.040 --> 0:12:37.719
<v Speaker 2>like a quick round of like who thinks the Republicans

0:12:37.720 --> 0:12:40.920
<v Speaker 2>are going to win the House? Who thinks? Or the Democrats?

0:12:41.080 --> 0:12:45.400
<v Speaker 2>Who thinks Republicans Democrats? Senate? Who thinks Republicans Democrats presidency?

0:12:45.440 --> 0:12:46.440
<v Speaker 2>Can we do that quick round?

0:12:46.520 --> 0:12:47.319
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, let's do it.

0:12:47.800 --> 0:12:49.920
<v Speaker 2>Andrew you in last House.

0:12:50.120 --> 0:12:56.120
<v Speaker 4>House Democrat, Senate Republican White House Democrat?

0:12:56.400 --> 0:13:01.920
<v Speaker 2>Okay, Tiff, what you got same as Andrew? Okay, I

0:13:01.960 --> 0:13:07.920
<v Speaker 2>am going to go out on a limb and say

0:13:08.040 --> 0:13:11.680
<v Speaker 2>that I think the Senate is going to surprise us

0:13:12.480 --> 0:13:15.880
<v Speaker 2>and somehow they eke out a victory and it's going

0:13:15.960 --> 0:13:24.800
<v Speaker 2>to be dim House, dim Senate Kamala Harris presidency, not

0:13:24.960 --> 0:13:26.800
<v Speaker 2>on election night, maybe a week later.

0:13:28.400 --> 0:13:30.960
<v Speaker 1>That you know that is positive because for a long

0:13:31.000 --> 0:13:34.160
<v Speaker 1>time you were like, I don't know, guys, this is like.

0:13:34.240 --> 0:13:36.560
<v Speaker 2>I don't know still, but this is what I'm I

0:13:36.640 --> 0:13:38.880
<v Speaker 2>need to bet this for my nerves and I and

0:13:38.920 --> 0:13:41.959
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna even say, like I just am being different

0:13:42.000 --> 0:13:46.640
<v Speaker 2>from y'all on the Senate piece. I think that I

0:13:46.679 --> 0:13:49.360
<v Speaker 2>think that it's I think the Senate is the toughest race,

0:13:49.480 --> 0:13:53.480
<v Speaker 2>honest or the toughest. The toughest races that the Democrats

0:13:53.520 --> 0:13:57.559
<v Speaker 2>have is the Senate. I think that they've made some miscalculations.

0:13:57.600 --> 0:14:01.199
<v Speaker 2>In particular, I'm thinking about the black woman running in Indiana,

0:14:01.640 --> 0:14:04.559
<v Speaker 2>like why would you don't be don't not be competitive

0:14:04.640 --> 0:14:09.120
<v Speaker 2>in states that you have not traditionally been competitive. Kentucky

0:14:09.240 --> 0:14:13.040
<v Speaker 2>has a democratic governor, Like why like there are places

0:14:13.080 --> 0:14:16.439
<v Speaker 2>where traditionally they would say we can't win and they

0:14:16.440 --> 0:14:19.280
<v Speaker 2>could have won if they would have just invested some resources.

0:14:20.920 --> 0:14:23.720
<v Speaker 1>Well, but even outside of like black folks in the Senate,

0:14:23.720 --> 0:14:25.120
<v Speaker 1>because I think and I do want to correct, I

0:14:25.120 --> 0:14:26.800
<v Speaker 1>did see all you guys' comments because I was saying, well,

0:14:26.840 --> 0:14:27.880
<v Speaker 1>there are no black women in the Senate.

0:14:29.800 --> 0:14:31.040
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, so forgive me.

0:14:32.000 --> 0:14:34.000
<v Speaker 1>I did I remember saying that when we were talking

0:14:34.000 --> 0:14:35.560
<v Speaker 1>about the black women running, and I was like, they

0:14:35.600 --> 0:14:38.080
<v Speaker 1>would be right now, there are no black women in

0:14:38.120 --> 0:14:40.400
<v Speaker 1>the Senate. So forgive me. That was a complete oversight.

0:14:40.480 --> 0:14:41.200
<v Speaker 1>My apologies.

0:14:41.240 --> 0:14:43.200
<v Speaker 2>Oh, I didn't even hear you say that. I thought

0:14:43.200 --> 0:14:45.560
<v Speaker 2>you meant there wouldn't be if they didn't win, which

0:14:45.600 --> 0:14:46.520
<v Speaker 2>would be true.

0:14:46.520 --> 0:14:48.400
<v Speaker 1>That is what I was trying to say. But I

0:14:48.440 --> 0:14:51.720
<v Speaker 1>would have I would have absolutely acknowledged Lafonds a butler.

0:14:51.880 --> 0:14:56.760
<v Speaker 3>We definitely, Yes, yes, I would.

0:14:56.520 --> 0:14:58.680
<v Speaker 1>Have acknowledged her in that moment of my apologies. But

0:14:58.720 --> 0:15:01.720
<v Speaker 1>I think even outside of black women running, there's just

0:15:01.720 --> 0:15:05.520
<v Speaker 1>some Senate seats out there, like John Tester and Montana.

0:15:05.920 --> 0:15:08.040
<v Speaker 1>I don't know what's gonna happen there. I think Colin

0:15:08.120 --> 0:15:11.720
<v Speaker 1>Allred might be. I think nobody likes Ted Cruz, Like,

0:15:11.760 --> 0:15:13.520
<v Speaker 1>why do y'all keep sending Ted Cruise to us? Here's

0:15:13.560 --> 0:15:17.960
<v Speaker 1>y'all's problem? Keep him at home? I cannot see. Yes, yes,

0:15:18.080 --> 0:15:20.720
<v Speaker 1>it's very strange. And Vice President Harris is there this

0:15:20.800 --> 0:15:24.720
<v Speaker 1>week in Texas, and I think that will get Look,

0:15:25.240 --> 0:15:27.360
<v Speaker 1>we were talking in our group chat that Texas is

0:15:27.920 --> 0:15:30.160
<v Speaker 1>not in play for her, but in that Senate race,

0:15:30.280 --> 0:15:32.520
<v Speaker 1>we keep getting promise Texas gonna be a purple state.

0:15:33.000 --> 0:15:36.880
<v Speaker 3>This might be the election cycle is why do we think.

0:15:36.720 --> 0:15:40.800
<v Speaker 2>That Colin Alred could win that seat but she couldn't win.

0:15:42.280 --> 0:15:44.880
<v Speaker 1>Because it's more of a local issue there. I think

0:15:45.240 --> 0:15:50.320
<v Speaker 1>Colin Allred uh has He's focused on Texas. She's focused

0:15:50.360 --> 0:15:52.560
<v Speaker 1>on the country. So there are some some policy points

0:15:52.560 --> 0:15:54.720
<v Speaker 1>that she takes that I think might run contrary to

0:15:54.760 --> 0:15:57.160
<v Speaker 1>the interests of the people in Texas, where Colin already

0:15:57.200 --> 0:15:57.600
<v Speaker 1>may have.

0:15:57.920 --> 0:15:59.600
<v Speaker 4>I think he's got everything to do with Ted.

0:15:59.400 --> 0:16:04.320
<v Speaker 1>Cruise and Tad Cruise is just genuinely unlikely.

0:16:04.320 --> 0:16:08.240
<v Speaker 2>They're saying even anybody and Maryland Kamala Harris has a

0:16:08.320 --> 0:16:12.360
<v Speaker 2>ten point advantage over Angela also Brooks, which is also fascinating.

0:16:12.400 --> 0:16:13.800
<v Speaker 2>I'm always interested when people I.

0:16:13.800 --> 0:16:17.320
<v Speaker 5>Think she's splitting and a largely on what happens in

0:16:17.360 --> 0:16:20.120
<v Speaker 5>these tickets is the fall off. This is the voter

0:16:20.240 --> 0:16:23.560
<v Speaker 5>fall off, not so much Trump and the Democrat or

0:16:24.080 --> 0:16:26.960
<v Speaker 5>the Democrat and a Republican, but the fall off that taxapays.

0:16:27.000 --> 0:16:29.160
<v Speaker 5>And I'll just qualify I said Mexico because that's his

0:16:29.320 --> 0:16:31.120
<v Speaker 5>preferred vacation spot.

0:16:31.320 --> 0:16:34.320
<v Speaker 4>Everybody, it's sort of tongue in cheek if.

0:16:34.160 --> 0:16:37.160
<v Speaker 1>We remember what I found interesting about that, but I

0:16:37.200 --> 0:16:41.320
<v Speaker 1>forgot well that that's my point with these reprobably it's

0:16:41.320 --> 0:16:44.240
<v Speaker 1>so much scandal you literally can't keep up. But during

0:16:44.280 --> 0:16:46.240
<v Speaker 1>that whole tobacco when he was going to Mexico, that's

0:16:46.280 --> 0:16:48.840
<v Speaker 1>how you know they we got don't.

0:16:48.560 --> 0:16:51.040
<v Speaker 3>Ever come to us talking about our community, okay, because

0:16:51.080 --> 0:16:54.760
<v Speaker 3>we ride her. She was in a group chat. Y'all

0:16:54.760 --> 0:16:55.680
<v Speaker 3>remember that.

0:16:57.280 --> 0:16:59.920
<v Speaker 1>It was in a group chat who leaked her at

0:17:00.080 --> 0:17:04.359
<v Speaker 1>have leaked the text messages her the fred.

0:17:06.800 --> 0:17:09.160
<v Speaker 4>We're gonna get out of this storm, will have electricity.

0:17:09.280 --> 0:17:10.600
<v Speaker 4>Everybody bring the kids.

0:17:11.960 --> 0:17:14.680
<v Speaker 1>Our group chat wouldn't neither one, none of our group

0:17:14.720 --> 0:17:17.479
<v Speaker 1>chats would never. Ever, you couldn't convince me if somebody

0:17:17.520 --> 0:17:19.040
<v Speaker 1>came and said, no, but we got this. I'm like,

0:17:19.040 --> 0:17:22.800
<v Speaker 1>did somebody hack into somebody's phone? We we would never ever,

0:17:22.800 --> 0:17:24.960
<v Speaker 1>it wouldn't occur, even if we were mad at each other,

0:17:25.160 --> 0:17:27.120
<v Speaker 1>like we just know move like that, and I'm like.

0:17:27.640 --> 0:17:31.000
<v Speaker 2>Got no people that stuff out of group chats, they

0:17:31.000 --> 0:17:32.480
<v Speaker 2>get summarily dismissed.

0:17:33.840 --> 0:17:35.960
<v Speaker 3>Well, there that's a mini problem.

0:17:37.000 --> 0:17:41.719
<v Speaker 2>It's just this many moment approved this message, and that

0:17:41.920 --> 0:17:42.920
<v Speaker 2>is a great conclusion.

0:17:43.000 --> 0:17:48.080
<v Speaker 1>Let the church say, so we all agree that vice

0:17:48.080 --> 0:17:49.159
<v Speaker 1>president here is gonna win.

0:17:50.040 --> 0:17:50.240
<v Speaker 2>Yes.

0:17:50.359 --> 0:17:53.840
<v Speaker 5>Yes, and by the way, mine is is an admonishment.

0:17:54.240 --> 0:17:56.280
<v Speaker 2>Yes, that's that's how I feel.

0:17:56.359 --> 0:17:59.840
<v Speaker 1>Andrew, Well, can I ask Andrew before we go, because

0:17:59.840 --> 0:18:01.800
<v Speaker 1>you said something, I just want to ask a quick questions.

0:18:01.960 --> 0:18:05.919
<v Speaker 1>You said that you your gut in twenty eighteen and

0:18:05.960 --> 0:18:08.399
<v Speaker 1>your head were different. Do you feel comfortable sharing what

0:18:08.480 --> 0:18:09.119
<v Speaker 1>you had told you?

0:18:09.359 --> 0:18:11.080
<v Speaker 5>My head told me we were going to win, and

0:18:11.200 --> 0:18:15.200
<v Speaker 5>my gut that morning was unlike anything I had felt

0:18:15.720 --> 0:18:18.080
<v Speaker 5>all the way up through the campaign. When I went

0:18:18.119 --> 0:18:24.520
<v Speaker 5>to vote, I thought, you know what, They're not gonna

0:18:24.560 --> 0:18:26.320
<v Speaker 5>There's a reason there's never been won before.

0:18:27.000 --> 0:18:30.560
<v Speaker 1>M I gotta be honest. When you were talking the

0:18:30.560 --> 0:18:33.080
<v Speaker 1>whole time, your tone made me very uncomfortable. I felt

0:18:33.160 --> 0:18:38.040
<v Speaker 1>like Davis or Jackson about to get in drone. He

0:18:38.200 --> 0:18:40.719
<v Speaker 1>was so serious the whole time he was telling his

0:18:40.800 --> 0:18:41.639
<v Speaker 1>thoughts on the election.

0:18:41.760 --> 0:18:44.920
<v Speaker 5>Let me say that's why it's but it's only true

0:18:44.960 --> 0:18:46.240
<v Speaker 5>if we do what we have to do.

0:18:46.359 --> 0:18:48.360
<v Speaker 2>And even if you think about what happened, I will

0:18:48.400 --> 0:18:51.920
<v Speaker 2>tell you Tiff like and We've talked about it a

0:18:51.960 --> 0:18:54.520
<v Speaker 2>little bit on the show before with Andrew's race, Like

0:18:54.600 --> 0:18:56.920
<v Speaker 2>Andrew ain't the only one that needed therapy after that race.

0:18:57.160 --> 0:18:59.760
<v Speaker 2>Like you couldn't have told me Andrew was not gonna win.

0:18:59.800 --> 0:19:02.960
<v Speaker 2>You could feel it. You could feel it. And that's

0:19:02.960 --> 0:19:07.000
<v Speaker 2>why I'm saying, like there is something really important, Like

0:19:07.240 --> 0:19:09.400
<v Speaker 2>even if you went over hearts and minds, if those

0:19:09.440 --> 0:19:12.800
<v Speaker 2>hearts and minds don't take their assets to the polls come,

0:19:13.359 --> 0:19:15.879
<v Speaker 2>it matters not And I do believe there were votes

0:19:16.080 --> 0:19:18.800
<v Speaker 2>that were not counted. I know, I sound like an

0:19:18.800 --> 0:19:22.520
<v Speaker 2>election denier. Florida is a different beast and they will

0:19:22.520 --> 0:19:25.600
<v Speaker 2>play a mean, evil, tricky game. And so what you

0:19:25.720 --> 0:19:28.840
<v Speaker 2>have to do is outperform they multiplied, right, You got

0:19:28.840 --> 0:19:31.080
<v Speaker 2>to outperform the evil. You got to show up in

0:19:31.160 --> 0:19:33.800
<v Speaker 2>numbers where they can't trick it or trade it or

0:19:33.840 --> 0:19:36.600
<v Speaker 2>do whatever they do. You have to make sure that

0:19:36.840 --> 0:19:40.679
<v Speaker 2>there is no room for a hanging chad. You just

0:19:40.800 --> 0:19:43.160
<v Speaker 2>have to. And that's why I'm saying, like you can

0:19:43.320 --> 0:19:47.439
<v Speaker 2>feel the like the tide is changing. You could feel

0:19:47.480 --> 0:19:49.720
<v Speaker 2>people are ripe and ready. But if ripe and ready

0:19:49.760 --> 0:19:55.000
<v Speaker 2>don't move, you know, so I'm with you on that Florida.

0:19:55.160 --> 0:20:00.639
<v Speaker 4>We lookda to Florida. Multiply that right, multiple yes, Florida,

0:20:00.920 --> 0:20:02.520
<v Speaker 4>but you know forty nine.

0:20:02.640 --> 0:20:06.040
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Pennsylvania, Michigan.

0:20:05.640 --> 0:20:07.800
<v Speaker 4>Come on, and all the places where.

0:20:07.600 --> 0:20:09.680
<v Speaker 2>They're messing stuff up, like we didn't even talk about

0:20:09.680 --> 0:20:12.360
<v Speaker 2>it today. But the Muslim Democrat that got kicked out

0:20:12.359 --> 0:20:13.240
<v Speaker 2>the rally.

0:20:13.880 --> 0:20:16.000
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, that cannot have a fumble.

0:20:16.680 --> 0:20:20.400
<v Speaker 2>That's that's a huge fu kama. Cuss somebody out about it,

0:20:20.520 --> 0:20:21.600
<v Speaker 2>Like what are y'all doing?

0:20:24.400 --> 0:20:24.880
<v Speaker 3>Goddamn?

0:20:25.200 --> 0:20:26.880
<v Speaker 2>And you can do that.

0:20:27.400 --> 0:20:27.600
<v Speaker 4>Well.

0:20:27.600 --> 0:20:29.600
<v Speaker 1>Before we go, I just want to remind the folks

0:20:29.600 --> 0:20:32.199
