Speaker 1: All right, thank you Scott Channon, and thanks to all
Speaker 1: of you for being with us. Right down our toll
Speaker 1: free telephone number. You want to be a part of
Speaker 1: the program at eight hundred and ninety four one Sean
Speaker 1: if you'd like to join us, we'd love for you
Speaker 1: to join us if you can. We are twenty five
Speaker 1: days away from an inflection point for this country. If
Speaker 1: the radicalism, the extremism of Kamala Harris is implemented, I
Speaker 1: don't know how we ever recover. And the list of
Speaker 1: stated positions is chilling.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 1: We have put up on Hannity dot com as a
Speaker 1: public service if you haven't registered to vote, how to
Speaker 1: register in your state when early voting starts. It's going
Speaker 1: on now in a lot of states around the country,
Speaker 1: and when early voting ends, and I hope people are
Speaker 1: paying attention. I hope people have been hearing me as
Speaker 1: I go through and I have played repeatedly, and this
Speaker 1: is what frustrates me the most, and this is what
Speaker 1: we got into yesterday with the sixty minutes issue. You know,
Speaker 1: I hope people are hearing me when I lay out
Speaker 1: what is the most radical stated positions of any presidential
Speaker 1: candidate in the history of this country. You know, Kamala
Speaker 1: Harris has never been asked if she still supports no
Speaker 1: restrictions on abortion, even in months seven, eight, and nine.
Speaker 1: He just never answers. Never, they don't ask. Nobody's ever
Speaker 1: asked if she still supports a mandatory gun buyback program.
Speaker 1: We'll talk about that with John Lott later in the program,
Speaker 1: which is also known as confiscation. Nobody is asked if
Speaker 1: she still thinks the border wall is a medieval vanity project,
Speaker 1: as she once characterized it. She's not been asked about
Speaker 1: why she wants to decriminalize the illegal immigration when obviously
Speaker 1: we have laws and borders and sovereignty. She has not
Speaker 1: been asked if she still supports federal funding of food, housing, healthcare, education,
Speaker 1: legal drivers' licenses, free college tuition, sex change operations for
Speaker 1: illegal immigrants, and a earned pathway to citizenship, in other words, amnesty.
Speaker 1: He's never had to answer the question. And we're twenty
Speaker 1: five days from election day and people are voting now.
Speaker 1: He's never had to explain if she still supports reparations,
Speaker 1: which he is on tape saying he has never had
Speaker 1: to explain why she wanted a ban plastic straws or
Speaker 1: reduce the consumption of red meat, basically my diet. You know,
Speaker 1: she has yet to explain why she co sponsored the radical,
Speaker 1: the Marxist Green New Deal ninety three trillion dollars with
Speaker 1: Bernie Sanders and that she'd eliminate the filibuster to pass it,
Speaker 1: that would eliminate capitalism as we know it. You know,
Speaker 1: she still has never been asked why she co sponsored
Speaker 1: with Bernie government health care for all and the elimination
Speaker 1: of private health insurance. He'd never had to explain, you know,
Speaker 1: why she thinks the high cost of energy that is
Speaker 1: in part because of her policies of not wanting fracking
Speaker 1: and drilling, you know, is just the cost of democracy.
Speaker 1: Pretty flip in view for Americans that have been suffering
Speaker 1: under Harris Biden inflation. She's not had to explain why
Speaker 1: she thinks it's courageous not to say the words radical
Speaker 1: Islamic terrorism, or illegal immigrant or illegal alien to be official.
Speaker 1: You know, she said she was going to address implation
Speaker 1: on day one, illegal immigration on day one, well, day
Speaker 1: one was January twentieth, twenty twenty one. Now she was
Speaker 1: proposing price controls. She's never been asked how that's going
Speaker 1: to work, or or whether or not corporations really pay
Speaker 1: taxes because she wants to raise taxes on small businesses, corporations,
Speaker 1: estate taxes, capital gains taxes, unrealized capital gains taxes. How
Speaker 1: the hell is that going to work? I mean, not
Speaker 1: only would people start leaving states like New York, New Jersey, Illinois,
Speaker 1: and California, they'd start leaving the country because there's no
Speaker 1: way you can make money and people are not going
Speaker 1: to go bankrupt. Just because she has this belief in socialism,
Speaker 1: she's not had to explain student loan forgiveness for these
Speaker 1: you know Ivy League school brats, you know, some of
Speaker 1: which are protesting against Israel and a pro Hamas. Why
Speaker 1: should taxpayers pay for that when they signed for the loan?
Speaker 1: You know, why did I have to pay lay down
Speaker 1: my own down payment and work hard and save money
Speaker 1: to buy my first home? And now she wants twenty
Speaker 1: five thousand dollars just you know, even though we have
Speaker 1: a forty trillion dollar deficit or debt you know for
Speaker 1: new time home buyers, or fifty thousand for you know,
Speaker 1: small businesses. Where's all this money going to come from?
Speaker 1: Where's the ninety three trillion for the green new deal
Speaker 1: going to come from. You know, she's never had to
Speaker 1: explain why she said she's proud to be the last
Speaker 1: person in the room and was proud to be the
Speaker 1: last person in the room when Joe and she authorized
Speaker 1: the disastrous to withdrawal from Afghanistan that killed thirteen Americans
Speaker 1: and that resulted in the abandonment of hundreds of Americans
Speaker 1: behind enemy lines and our allies behind enemy lines. He
Speaker 1: has yet to explain her stated position to defund, dismantle,
Speaker 1: and reimagine the police and reimagine ice. You know, she's
Speaker 1: not had to not been asked if she stands behind
Speaker 1: her bail fund that she promoted four days after a
Speaker 1: Minnesota police precinct was burned of the by violent rioters
Speaker 1: in the Summer of Love in twenty twenty five hundred
Speaker 1: and seventy four riots. Dozens of dead Americans, we had
Speaker 1: that we had thousands of cops injured with bricks and
Speaker 1: rocks and bottles and molotov cocktails, billions and billions in
Speaker 1: property damage, And she tweets out a bailfund four days
Speaker 1: after a police precinct is burned to the ground in Minnesota,
Speaker 1: and and does she stand behind her statement in the
Speaker 1: summer of twenty twenty that the rioters won't stop writing,
Speaker 1: the writers shouldn't stop writing, and she won't stop supporting them.
Speaker 1: Why isn't anyone asked that question? She's on tape saying
Speaker 1: that eighteen to twenty four year olds are stupid. Well,
Speaker 1: the only thing stupid about any eighteen or twenty four
Speaker 1: year old would be to vote for somebody who calls
Speaker 1: you stupid. You know, she've been saying for years inflation
Speaker 1: is transitory. New numbers out yesterday's show the exact op
Speaker 1: us it to be true, as inflation went up three
Speaker 1: point three percent year over year. Whoopsie Daisy. You know,
Speaker 1: why did she tell us for three years that the
Speaker 1: borders secure, the border's secure. Why haven't you been to
Speaker 1: the border? Well, I haven't been to Europe either. Hadn't
Speaker 1: had to answer that question. You know, she said just
Speaker 1: in August of twenty twenty three that it's called Bidenomics
Speaker 1: and we're proud of it. Now she's saying that she's
Speaker 1: you know, inflation is real and people are having a
Speaker 1: hard time at the grocery store. I'm like they've had
Speaker 1: the whole a hard time the whole time you've been
Speaker 1: vice president.
Speaker 3: What are you talking about?
Speaker 1: You know, she's not been asked if she stand by
Speaker 1: stands by her beliefs that Americans need to stay woke,
Speaker 1: or that she supports and thinks AOC's proposed seventy to
Speaker 1: eighty percent tax rateing to Oh, that's fantastic ideas she's
Speaker 1: bringing up. You know, she's never said she would deport
Speaker 1: any people that don't respect our laws, borders and sovereignty.
Speaker 1: But she's, you know, unburdened by what has been He
Speaker 1: has not to answer for her vice president offering free
Speaker 1: legal driver's licenses to illegal immigrants and college education illegal immigrants,
Speaker 1: or feminine hygiene products that signed to build to put
Speaker 1: them in boys' bathrooms, or his radical views on abortion
Speaker 1: with no restrictions at all. You know, all we got
Speaker 1: this week is what do we learned this week? That
Speaker 1: he likes Raisin brand but doesn't need it every day
Speaker 1: in a hard hitting interview with someone that used to
Speaker 1: be known as Howard Stern, and that she likes Miller
Speaker 1: Lite as she goes on Stephen Colbert and sipping tea
Speaker 1: with the ladies of the view, or going on the
Speaker 1: Call Me Daddy podcast and getting hard hitting questions there.
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 1: Now, apparently she's worried because you have top Democratic politicians,
Speaker 1: you have operatives Mark Awpern this week, James Carville this
Speaker 1: week that they're nervous as hell, and poles are showing that.
Speaker 1: Donald Trump, and I'll go through some of them in
Speaker 1: this hour, is now beginning to take a lead in
Speaker 1: almost all of the swing states. I don't want you
Speaker 1: to get a lot of confidence in that because in
Speaker 1: some in some of these cases it's a one point lead.
Speaker 1: That's not a big lead, and we don't know what's
Speaker 1: going to happen in terms of, you know, who shows
Speaker 1: up on election day. I hope Republicans will overcome their reluctance,
Speaker 1: their resistance to vote early and vote by mail. But
Speaker 1: internal polls obviously of pushing Kamala out, and the big
Speaker 1: push is well up until I guess the news on
Speaker 1: the economy. Economy came out this week. I guess the
Speaker 1: big news was that Kamalo was gonna make her closing
Speaker 1: argument about the economy. But new inflation is surging. We
Speaker 1: had this, you know, new report on unemployment claims. You know,
Speaker 1: unexpectedly at a fourteen month high. Inflation came in hotter
Speaker 1: than expected three point three percent versus a year ago.
Speaker 1: That's core inflation, the metric closely watched by economists, that
Speaker 1: excludes the volatile costs of food and energy. You know,
Speaker 1: that's versus a year ago, ahead of what economists were predicting.
Speaker 1: Laurence Summers, of former Treasury secretary during the Clint administration,
Speaker 1: said last week the Fed made a mistake by cutting
Speaker 1: interest rates last month. They did it fifty basis points
Speaker 1: to help Kamala Harris. It make it seem like something
Speaker 1: was happening that's not happening, and now she's worried, and
Speaker 1: by the way, not for bad reason. And I'll get
Speaker 1: to this at some point this hour. We have another
Speaker 1: poll Washington Post finding the twenty four percent of African
Speaker 1: American voters in this state of Ohio, for example, in
Speaker 1: the state of Ohio, favor for former President Donald Trump
Speaker 1: over Kamala Harris. And then Barack Obama went out campaigning
Speaker 1: on her behalf yesterday. Didn't seem too thrilled about it.
Speaker 1: And he seems to see that Kamala's not connecting with
Speaker 1: a lot of a lot of the coalition that supported
Speaker 1: him back in the day. Well, I mean, you can
Speaker 1: say this, she's no but Barack Obama in terms of
Speaker 1: an ability to connect with a crowd, and she doesn't
Speaker 1: answer questions, and she's hiding doing the equivalent of hiding
Speaker 1: in her basement. You know, we are living in really,
Speaker 1: really difficult times when I say this is an inflection
Speaker 1: point for the country after four years of a disaster
Speaker 1: at the border, after the insanity of proposing defundismantle no
Speaker 1: bail laws and the resulting rise dramatically in the crime
Speaker 1: rate in spite of their proclamations that are false, you know,
Speaker 1: to see the economy and inflation stubbornly hurting families. Families
Speaker 1: now sixty to six percent according to one poll show
Speaker 1: Americans of gulping water. Twenty five percent of Americans in
Speaker 1: the last year didn't have enough food to put on
Speaker 1: their table. This shouldn't happen, you know, to be lectured
Speaker 1: that paying you know, a dollar plus more per gallon
Speaker 1: for gasoline is the cause of democracy, to seeing the
Speaker 1: world deteriorate around us because they don't have a clue
Speaker 1: how to stand up to the radical of moms and
Speaker 1: Mullahs in Iran and stop the unrelenting attacks against Israel
Speaker 1: that is now fighting a forefront war mostly on their
Speaker 1: own because America's abandoned them to watch China on the
Speaker 1: move and Russia on the move and war in Europe
Speaker 1: and war in the Middle East. And then to have
Speaker 1: somebody who, based on their own words and their own
Speaker 1: statements and their own positions, is even more radical than Joe,
Speaker 1: although she says she wouldn't do anything differently than Joe. Well,
Speaker 1: actually she would, if you believe her her past position.
Speaker 1: She would go hardcore left of Joe. And how's that
Speaker 1: been working out for everybody? Hasn't been working out for
Speaker 1: anybody that I know. And the reason that people are
Speaker 1: pulling back and the polls are not moving in her
Speaker 1: direction and Democrats are in a panic is because she
Speaker 1: can't do a real interview. She can't answer the questions
Speaker 1: that I just raised to you about her own stated positions.
Speaker 1: So she's got to talk about Raisin Brad and she's
Speaker 1: got to go on a podcast. She's not going to
Speaker 1: get a hard question on and talk to the ladies
Speaker 1: of the view there are supporting her. And Crack of
Speaker 1: Beer with Stephen Colbert because people won't ask the real questions.
Speaker 1: As we roll a long eight hundred and nine foot one,
Speaker 1: Shawn is on number if you want to be of
Speaker 1: the program. You know we have an Afghan accused of
Speaker 1: plotting a terror attack. Now we're learning they may have
Speaker 1: worked for the CIA. May Orcis was asked by Jackie
Speaker 1: Heinrich call play it later in the program today.
Speaker 3: About this.
Speaker 1: Did you know I want to want to talk to
Speaker 1: you about it now? Well, that's your job. I want
Speaker 1: to talk to you about immediate disaster relief. Well, the
Speaker 1: media would have been two weeks ago in North Carolina, Georgia,
Speaker 1: South Carolina, Tennessee, and Florida. They're a little late to
Speaker 1: the game. On top of him announcing that they're running
Speaker 1: out of money and that we discovered that the FEMA
Speaker 1: funds were rated to help pay for Harris Biden on
Speaker 1: veted illegal immigrants, It is interesting, this this phenomenon. Well,
Speaker 1: let's bring in Barack Obama. Now there's a video and
Speaker 1: we had this on TV last night of Barack Obama.
Speaker 1: He did not look happy being there now as he's did.
Speaker 1: He seemed to enjoy bashing Trump. He likes that part,
Speaker 1: which is fine, which I would fully expect, But it
Speaker 1: doesn't seem that he's enjoying himself having to go in
Speaker 1: quote for the save for Kamala Harris. He's I'm sure
Speaker 1: deep in his mind he understands she's over.
Speaker 3: He's just not ready for this job.
Speaker 1: Keeping Uncle Sam accountable to you every day.
Speaker 3: Hannity is on.
Speaker 1: All right, twenty five to the top of the hour,
Speaker 1: eight hundred and nine point one. Sean, if you want
Speaker 1: to be a part of the program, you know, I've
Speaker 1: had an opportunity to spend going over gov x dot
Speaker 1: comgovx dot com because sweet baby James is now one
Speaker 1: of about ten million members because he served in the
Speaker 1: Navy for a number of years. And anyway, it's a
Speaker 1: free service, a pre membership, and it's a service designed
Speaker 1: as a benefit for people that have served their community
Speaker 1: and their countries. For example, if you served or served
Speaker 1: in the military, or serve or served in law enforcement,
Speaker 1: same thing, first responders, teachers, etc. You can become a
Speaker 1: member of gov x dot com. Now, they did offer
Speaker 1: me an honorary membership, and I looked at it when
Speaker 1: sweet baby James, you know, qualified for it because he served.
Speaker 1: I just didn't feel deserving of it. And then I
Speaker 1: started looking at everything that all the discounts he's getting,
Speaker 1: and I got very, very jealous, very fast. The best
Speaker 1: part is if you observed or you serve your community
Speaker 1: or your country, it's absolutely free and things that you're
Speaker 1: going to buy anyway, you get massive discounts on. You
Speaker 1: can get up to forty percent off ray Bans, Oakley's, YETI,
Speaker 1: north Face a ton more and anyway. They have forty
Speaker 1: percent off amazing vacations for example one thousand bucks. You
Speaker 1: can get up to a thousand bucks off on cruises
Speaker 1: like the ones that have unlimited open bars and specialty
Speaker 1: dining with the Norwegian cruise lines. A lot of people
Speaker 1: have taken advantage of that deal. I mean that's real
Speaker 1: money in your pocket for you and your family have
Speaker 1: a great vacation. Anyway, if you know somebody that would qualify,
Speaker 1: or you qualify, you don't pay a penny to join.
Speaker 1: There's no membership fee. It's absolutely free and there are
Speaker 1: ten million members that are saving millions of dollars every month.
Speaker 1: To simply go to their website and sign up. It's
Speaker 1: gov x dot com, that's g o VX dot com
Speaker 1: and use the promo coach Sean s E A N.
Speaker 1: And then they'll give you fifteen bucks for your first
Speaker 1: purchase on top of everything else.
Speaker 3: It's pretty amazing. Anyway.
Speaker 1: So Barack Obama was called into Pennsylvania yesterday, and if
Speaker 1: you look at the video, mean I'll show it again
Speaker 1: on TV tonight. He doesn't look too happy that he
Speaker 1: that he's being called in, and he's he's kind of
Speaker 1: aged a lot since the last I saw him. At
Speaker 1: least he looked older even than when I saw him
Speaker 1: at the Democratic National Convention. I was there when he spoke,
Speaker 1: but as he's walking in, I want you to listen
Speaker 1: to what he had to say because he's you know,
Speaker 1: I never like the fact that every poll is broken
Speaker 1: down demographically. I don't like the fact that I don't
Speaker 1: like identity politics. I think good policies are good politics.
Speaker 1: Good economic policies help all Americans. They just do and good.
Speaker 1: If you have good law and order that helps everybody.
Speaker 1: Maybe you have a good educational system, everybody benefits. You know,
Speaker 1: if you have low energy prices, everybody benefits. You have
Speaker 1: low interest rates, everybody benefits, you have low inflation, everybody benefits.
Speaker 1: But it's not the way politics works. But anyway, here's
Speaker 1: a former President Obama kind of like scolding Pece for
Speaker 1: not supporting Kamala Harris and supporting Donald Trump.
Speaker 4: We had not yet seen the same kinds of energy
Speaker 4: have turned in all quarters how our neighborhoods and tituses
Speaker 4: we saw. Now, I also want to say that that
Speaker 4: seems to be more pronounced with the Brothers.
Speaker 1: So he said, my understanding, based on reports I'm getting
Speaker 1: from campaigns and communities, is that we've not yet seen
Speaker 1: the same kind of energy and turnout in all quarters
Speaker 1: of our neighborhoods and communities. And we saw when I
Speaker 1: was running. And Obama said this that it seems to
Speaker 1: be more pronounced with the Brothers. Those are his words.
Speaker 1: And anyway, Obama questioned how voters and African Americans specifically
Speaker 1: could be on the fence about whether to support Kamala
Speaker 1: Harris or former President Trump. On the one hand, you
Speaker 1: have someone who grew up like you, knows you went
Speaker 1: to college with, You understands the struggles and the pain
Speaker 1: and the joy that comes from those experiences. You know,
Speaker 1: taking off a list of Harris, you know, policy proposals.
Speaker 1: By the way, Donald Trump had an interesting response to it,
Speaker 1: and he said on Friday that he thinks that Obama
Speaker 1: will vote for him instead of Harris. He said, Obama
Speaker 1: admits a total lack of enthusiasm for Kamala, especially with
Speaker 1: black men. I think that Obama will be voting for
Speaker 1: me because he doesn't like the fact that Kamala is
Speaker 1: an extremely low IQ person. He just know that this
Speaker 1: irritates the hell headed Democrats, and for kicks and giggles,
Speaker 1: it makes it fun.
Speaker 3: Now.
Speaker 1: I guess she's going to do a town hall in Detroit.
Speaker 1: I guess a podcast town hall with Charlemagne.
Speaker 3: The God.
Speaker 1: Remember we went up to see Charlemagne studio. It was
Speaker 1: in the same building when I used to live in
Speaker 1: New York. The Wire you with us that day when
Speaker 1: Jim Kurr took us up there. You've seen it before.
Speaker 1: I have and and and describe the chair. It's like
Speaker 1: a king's throne, right.
Speaker 2: I mean the cool thing about Charlotte, I mean, listen,
Speaker 2: I like Charlotte man. I see him in the morning
Speaker 2: when I come in, and he's a nice guy. I
Speaker 2: don't agree with everything he says, but I do agree
Speaker 2: with a lot of what he says. He's kind of
Speaker 2: a middle of the road kind of guy. He actually
Speaker 2: just had Byron Donald's on his show too, which was interesting.
Speaker 2: But it's a big purple chair. It's ginormous.
Speaker 3: No, I mean, but it's like a it's a throne.
Speaker 2: It's not like it's a throne.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, it's pretty funny. Let me see if
Speaker 1: I can help educate Barack Obama and explain to people,
Speaker 1: because people are going to vote, what's their best interests
Speaker 1: at the end of the day. You can play identity
Speaker 1: politics to a point, and maybe there are some people
Speaker 1: that will will buy into this. But I mean, this
Speaker 1: is the old playbook of Democrats that every two and
Speaker 1: four years they claim Republicans are racist and sexist and
Speaker 1: homophobic and seven aphobic and islamophobic and now transphobic, and
Speaker 1: they want dirty air and water, and they don't care
Speaker 1: about the environment, and they want grandma and grandpa to
Speaker 1: eat dog food and cat food. And you know, some nasty,
Speaker 1: rascally Republican will come along when they're in a wheelchair
Speaker 1: and throw them over a cliff and kill them.
Speaker 3: It's all a lie.
Speaker 1: And so Obama, you know, at one point even brought
Speaker 1: up the issue of sexism as to why African American males,
Speaker 1: which I felt was pretty insulting, and it was interesting
Speaker 1: it was in Pennsylvania where he once claimed there were
Speaker 1: people in Pennsylvania that are bitter, that cling to their God, guns, Bibles,
Speaker 1: and religion. But you know why go back to that
Speaker 1: point anyway, He says, you're coming up with all kinds
Speaker 1: of reasons and excuses for not voting for Kamala Harris.
Speaker 1: I got a problem with that, he said, And I'm
Speaker 1: speaking to men directly, and part of it makes me
Speaker 1: think that, well, that you just aren't feeling the idea
Speaker 1: of having a woman as president, and you're coming up
Speaker 1: with other alternatives or other reasons for that. Let me
Speaker 1: help Barack out here. Now, people are going to vote
Speaker 1: for their best interests in this transcends race, and a
Speaker 1: far more powerful motivator, I would suggest, behind both African
Speaker 1: American Hispanic American support for Donald Trump is the fact
Speaker 1: that both groups were doing a hell of a lot
Speaker 1: better in their own lives economically when Trump was president.
Speaker 1: Now I digress for a second here, in all of
Speaker 1: these cities and all of these towns, you know, you
Speaker 1: can start with New York and Chicago and work your
Speaker 1: way around the country, predominantly minority neighborhoods that have been
Speaker 1: run for by Democrats for decades. When generally speaking, you know,
Speaker 1: how is safety, How is security?
Speaker 3: You know? How is law and order in.
Speaker 1: Those towns and cities usually not too good? How are
Speaker 1: their school systems doing? Are they outperforming the rest of
Speaker 1: the state or the rest of the country, or do
Speaker 1: we find in inner cities in America inferior schools. Usually
Speaker 1: the latter, In other words, the latter to success education
Speaker 1: has been withheld by the very people that claim they
Speaker 1: have a monopoly of compassion for minorities.
Speaker 3: You know. So the real.
Speaker 1: Reason is is that if you look at Donald Trump's
Speaker 1: first three years prior to the pandemic, the economic benefits
Speaker 1: were widespread. Now, this is an article I found Fox
Speaker 1: Business from September of twenty twenty, and it was written
Speaker 1: by Andrew Puzder. I guess he's an economist to somebody,
Speaker 1: and this is what he pointed out, and I remember
Speaker 1: talking about. Remember at the time, Donald Trump had said
Speaker 1: record low after record low after record low unemployment for
Speaker 1: African Americans, for Hispanic Americans, for Asian Americans, for women
Speaker 1: in the workplace, and African American youth unemployment anyway went back,
Speaker 1: and it says, as was the case throughout Donald Trump's
Speaker 1: first three years, the economic benefits quote were widespread. The
Speaker 1: overall growth rate was six point eight percent. Real median
Speaker 1: income grew by an even greater seven point nine percent
Speaker 1: for African Americans, seven point one percent for Hispanic Americans,
Speaker 1: ten point six percent for Asian Americans, all record highs,
Speaker 1: as were the new income levels for each of these
Speaker 1: demographic groups. And as for talking points about how the
Speaker 1: Trump tax cuts benefited only the rich, well they were
Speaker 1: false because as incomes grew in twenty nineteen, the poverty
Speaker 1: rate plummeted one point three percentage points to a sixty
Speaker 1: year low of ten point five percent. That was the
Speaker 1: largest reduction in poverty in over fifty years. It lifted
Speaker 1: over four point one million people out of poverty. It
Speaker 1: was the largest yearly decrease since nineteen sixty six. And
Speaker 1: you know, just for comparative purposes, over the Obama Biden error,
Speaker 1: the number of people living in poverty went up by
Speaker 1: nearly a million, seven hundred and eighty seven thousand, and
Speaker 1: minority groups again experienced the largest improvements, while the overall
Speaker 1: poverty rate declined one point three percentage points. African American
Speaker 1: poverty fell by two percentage points, Hispanic poverty fell by
Speaker 1: one point eight, Asian American poverty fell boy two point eight.
Speaker 1: So it's you know, I don't know why people think
Speaker 1: if you're a certain of back ground race, religion, demographic, sex,
Speaker 1: whatever it happens to be, if you're playing identity politics,
Speaker 1: that that somehow is going to you know, automatically cause
Speaker 1: you to vote for a Democrat when in reality, ask
Speaker 1: yourself some simple questions. These are not complicated questions. You know,
Speaker 1: ware you're better off than you were four years ago?
Speaker 1: Was the economy better off? Where you're better off with inflation?
Speaker 3: If?
Speaker 1: Were you better off with interest rates? Inflation just went
Speaker 1: up another three point three percent year over year this
Speaker 1: past month. You know, even Lauren Summers is saying that
Speaker 1: the Fed shouldn't have cut the interest rates of fifty
Speaker 1: basis points because the economy hasn't recovered in spite of
Speaker 1: it us being told it's transitory. All of these things matter,
Speaker 1: all of these things. Are the borders more safe and secure?
Speaker 3: Is that? Is that question a joke?
Speaker 1: Is there more law and order with this mentality of
Speaker 1: Kamala and company of defund dismantle no Bell laws, tweeting
Speaker 1: out bell funds after police precincts are burned to the
Speaker 1: ground and saying rioters aren't going to stop rioting and
Speaker 1: shouldn't stop writing, and that she's not going to start
Speaker 1: supporting them. You know, are you Are you better off
Speaker 1: when you go to the gas pump? Are you better
Speaker 1: off when you go to the grocery store. I do
Speaker 1: my own grocery shopping, and I'm going to tell you
Speaker 1: some of it. It just annoys the hell out of me.
Speaker 1: Now I could afford my groceries at this point in
Speaker 1: my life, but I still have the mindset in my
Speaker 1: early adult life when I really, you know, had to
Speaker 1: struggle to pay rent and struggle in terms of what
Speaker 1: I could buy. And you know, usually it was like
Speaker 1: the cheapest ground beef. You can get a couple of onions, celery,
Speaker 1: and some green peppers and just throw it together with
Speaker 1: a couple of eggs and milk and the key to
Speaker 1: a good meat loaf, by the way, it is moisture
Speaker 1: and catch up. And that was like I'd make the
Speaker 1: biggest one I could possibly make, and that was pretty
Speaker 1: much my food for the week.
Speaker 3: That was it.
Speaker 1: And I did that for years, and I was by
Speaker 1: the way, I was happy. I never felt poor never.
Speaker 1: You know, I always got my rent paid. Somehow I
Speaker 1: pulled it off. But you know what men tell me
Speaker 1: by what measure your life, regardless of what sex you
Speaker 1: may happen to be, what your gender identity may happen
Speaker 1: to be, what race you may happen to be, by
Speaker 1: tell me where you're better off and where the country's
Speaker 1: better off. Because I don't see it now. I know
Speaker 1: they're in a full fledged panic. And we have more
Speaker 1: polls out today.
Speaker 3: And you know, the.
Speaker 1: One measure that keeps coming up again and again and
Speaker 1: again is that people don't think that they're better off
Speaker 1: than they wore four years ago. You know, if you
Speaker 1: look at the latest polls, they're close, but Donald Trump
Speaker 1: has closed the gap. He's up in Georgia, up in Arizona.
Speaker 1: He's tied in Michigan forty nine, forty nine, he's up
Speaker 1: in Nevada, North Carolina, he's up by one, tied in Wisconsin,
Speaker 1: up by one or two, depending on which pole you're
Speaker 1: looking at in Pennsylvania. So they're scared to death and
Speaker 1: for people that supposedly have a monopoly of compassion for people.
Speaker 1: This was the worst disaster relief we've ever seen in
Speaker 1: the history of our country. The people in North Carolina, Georgia,
Speaker 1: South Carolina, Tennessee, we're just that flat out abandoned. And
Speaker 1: then we were just flat out lied to. And now
Speaker 1: we're getting lectured that we shouldn't be critical of the
Speaker 1: horrific response to Hurricane Helene in these states, and it's
Speaker 1: just we're so much better than than this. Then we
Speaker 1: have to hear from our Homeland Security secretary that hurricane
Speaker 1: funds are running out. And then we learned from FEMA's
Speaker 1: website that their top priorities are DEI and climate alarmism.
Speaker 1: And then we learned that a billion plus dollars was
Speaker 1: diverted from FEMA to help Harris and Biden unvetted the
Speaker 1: illegal immigrants. Oh okay, how do you think that whatever
Speaker 1: happened to Americans first?
Speaker 3: America first? What happened to those principles?
Speaker 1: Why don't we put the people in North Carolina ahead
Speaker 1: of the eight and a half billion. Why at the
Speaker 1: end of last week and they only spent four million
Speaker 1: dollars on hurricane relief
