Speaker 1: Countdown with Keith Olderman is a production of iHeartRadio. The
Speaker 1: Kamala Harris closing argument quote the fact that someone does
Speaker 1: not agree with us does not make them the enemy within.
Speaker 1: I will always put country above party and above self.
Speaker 1: The Donald Trump closing argument, I'm called hitler. I'm not hitler. Hell,
Speaker 1: that's a clear and convincing explanation. I'm sold not hitler.
Speaker 1: Sign me up. He invoked his father in this. Father
Speaker 1: told me never to say Nazi or hitler, or rent
Speaker 1: to the black people's or get caught going to a
Speaker 1: KKK rally. As Mary Trump said last night, her grandfather
Speaker 1: was a sociopath. But honestly, those are the closing arguments.
Speaker 1: Kamala Harris, with an intricate, balanced, sometimes too far right leaning,
Speaker 1: Welcome to everybody who wants to get back out of
Speaker 1: the shark infested waters of MAGA and back on board,
Speaker 1: back on board the United States of America. Trump argument,
Speaker 1: more anger, more rage. We can say one word, you
Speaker 1: can't say another word, even if you're quoting us saying
Speaker 1: the word. So you're not hitler? You sure? How about putin?
Speaker 1: Are you putin Trump? Are you president cheese? That would
Speaker 1: be she of China to the rest of us called
Speaker 1: him cheese last week, President Cheese, President mccheese, you got
Speaker 1: an upgrade from mayor Baby hit Where are you, baby Hitler?
Speaker 1: Baby Hitler? Might be the apt explanation. The argument has
Speaker 1: been I had gone into it at great length that No,
Speaker 1: this is not nineteen forty four Hitler. No, it is
Speaker 1: not nineteen thirty nine Hitler. No, it is not the
Speaker 1: Hitler who has opened up the concentration. Well it might be,
Speaker 1: and it might be soon. It's baby Hitler. It's Hitler
Speaker 1: nineteen thirty two, trying to get as much support as
Speaker 1: possible from as many mainstream politicians as possible, from those
Speaker 1: closer to the middle, if not the middle itself, and
Speaker 1: then send them all to camps, take all of their
Speaker 1: power from them. Do you know the names of the
Speaker 1: other German politicians of the nineteen twenties and nineteen thirties,
Speaker 1: of the newspapers, of the industrialists who fought against Hitler?
Speaker 1: Do you know the names of the other conservative leaders,
Speaker 1: even the violent conservative leaders. Germany had ten twenty prominent
Speaker 1: parties in the nineteen twenties. You know any of their names? No,
Speaker 1: you don't, because they died in the camps. Trump also
Speaker 1: insisted he's not garbage because the Trump campaign saw a
Speaker 1: lifeline provided to them by what President Biden said, quoting
Speaker 1: their comedian Hingecliffe about garbage at Madison Square Garden on Sunday.
Speaker 1: They have turned this into Biden calling all of them garbage.
Speaker 1: He's not garbage. No, no, Trump would never want to
Speaker 1: emphasize that, just because he's in a garbage man's vest,
Speaker 1: in a garbage truck, and then he's on stage in
Speaker 1: the orange vest that he was wearing that you can
Speaker 1: see at night on a highway, but it's not quite
Speaker 1: as orange as his face is. But he's not a
Speaker 1: garbage man, and he's not garbage, and he's not garbage man.
Speaker 1: The Trump closing argument is not just I'm not hitler.
Speaker 1: It's this. It's this needle which he has decided to
Speaker 1: try to thread five different ways. One, I'm not garbage,
Speaker 1: We're not garbage. Two Biden called half of America garbage.
Speaker 1: Three never mind the fact that in the last week
Speaker 1: I called America a garbage can at least six times,
Speaker 1: three times in one speech, and congratulated myself on coming
Speaker 1: up with the term America is a garbage can four,
Speaker 1: I would like you to forget that my comic called
Speaker 1: Puerto Rico garbage at Madison Square Garden Sunday. Completely forget
Speaker 1: that and all of the insults that he made towards
Speaker 1: the Hispanic and Latino communities. Just forget that. But the
Speaker 1: word garbage, I want you to remember that. So five,
Speaker 1: I'm going to dress up in a garbage man's vest,
Speaker 1: in a garbage truck, and then I'm going to deny
Speaker 1: I know anything about the garbage line while I am
Speaker 1: yelling out the window of the gar garbage truck. I
Speaker 1: don't know anything about the comedian. I don't know who
Speaker 1: he is. I've never seen him. I heard he made
Speaker 1: a statement, but it was just a statement that he made.
Speaker 1: He's a comedian. What can I tell you. I know
Speaker 1: nothing about him. I don't know why he's there if
Speaker 1: you put comedians up, and I guess he went on
Speaker 1: earlier the show. I don't know who he is. The
Speaker 1: sad truth is to continue this. If you'd like to
Speaker 1: not be associated with the word garbage, don't dress up
Speaker 1: as a garbage man. And if you'd like to not
Speaker 1: be associated with Hitler, don't give an answer that says
Speaker 1: I know nothing like Sergeant Schultz from Hogan's Heroes. I
Speaker 1: really think the internal polls the Trump campaign have are disastrous,
Speaker 1: and that they are setting up as much as they
Speaker 1: possibly can this aura of invincibility, and we're winning, and
Speaker 1: we're winning on not just votes, but memes and garbage.
Speaker 1: We've won the garbage war against Joe Biden. And then
Speaker 1: when it doesn't happen, they spring anyone of six different
Speaker 1: coup attempts, just like in twenty twenty one, somebody said
Speaker 1: that the garbage man's outfit was Trump's Halloween costume. This
Speaker 1: is incorrect. That was not his Halloween costume. Trump's Halloween
Speaker 1: costume tonight is he's going dressed up and pretending to
Speaker 1: be a human being, the whole thing with the garbage
Speaker 1: truck and the garbage vest and the garbage brain. This
Speaker 1: was at his speech in Green Bay, Wisconsin last night,
Speaker 1: where Brett Favre, the pervert ex quarterback of the Green
Speaker 1: Bay Packers and frequent user of public funds, will put
Speaker 1: it politely that way, got up to that crowd talk
Speaker 1: about maga make America garbage again. He insisted he's not garbage.
Speaker 1: I'd like to see Brett Farv prove that in a
Speaker 1: court of law. And incidentally, Farv was only there because
Speaker 1: his successor as the Green Bay Packers quarterback, Aaron Rodgers,
Speaker 1: could not make it because Aaron Rodgers is still busy
Speaker 1: and booked up destroying the franchise of the New York Jets.
Speaker 1: And the bottom line here continues to be, no matter
Speaker 1: what you think, Joe Biden said, and he did not
Speaker 1: call anybody garbage. It's a quote. I will read it
Speaker 1: to you in full later, but whatever you do, keep
Speaker 1: that word garbage front of mind for Puerto Ricans and
Speaker 1: other people of Hispanic origin. Dissent friendship, very smart, Keep
Speaker 1: that word out there. The fallout from Trump's Madison Square
Speaker 1: Garden rally reported Politico still resonating. Bad Bunny, who in
Speaker 1: decated to sport for Harris over the weekend last has
Speaker 1: now posted a video in support of his own country.
Speaker 1: Don Omar, the Puerto Rican megastar, voiced his support for
Speaker 1: Kamala Harris. Jennifer Lopez will be at the Harris rally
Speaker 1: in Las Vegas tomorrow and as you know, the most
Speaker 1: important part of a star appearing at a Harris rallies,
Speaker 1: whether or not they sing something for Donald Trump, like
Speaker 1: the Beyonce thing. He's fixated on the idea that Beyonce
Speaker 1: did not sing because, of course, in his mind, people
Speaker 1: who are black, or people who are Hispanic, or people
Speaker 1: who are not pasty white guys who wear orange makeup,
Speaker 1: they have to perform in some way. It's an old
Speaker 1: Mash line when Harry Morgan was the villain on the
Speaker 1: TV series Mash and he's adjudicating some sort of dispute
Speaker 1: between an enlisted officer or an unlisted man and an officer,
Speaker 1: and he's about to take the testimony, and he looks
Speaker 1: at the enlisted man, who is African American, and he says,
Speaker 1: give your testimony, and don't be afraid to tell the truth, son,
Speaker 1: as to what the colonel said. And the man starts
Speaker 1: to speak, and he goes, but first a number, and
Speaker 1: the African American serviceman goes, excuse me, sir, and Harry Morgan,
Speaker 1: as the evil general, then says, a number, a dance number.
Speaker 1: It's in your blood, son. This is what Trump expects.
Speaker 1: Why would you have Jennifer Lopez out there if she
Speaker 1: isn't going to act or sing? Why would you have
Speaker 1: Beyonce at a concert, if she's not going to get
Speaker 1: up and dance or do something. That's what they do
Speaker 1: in Trump world, the best one of them all. The
Speaker 1: indicator of how much this resonated, and every attempt, every
Speaker 1: garbage attempt to try to make the garbage go away
Speaker 1: is just piling the garbage on top of Trump's garbage
Speaker 1: head a little bit more garbage quickly. The real indicator
Speaker 1: is this story. Singer Nicki Jam has retracted his endorsement
Speaker 1: of Trump. He posted a video to Instagram yesterday following
Speaker 1: the whole floating Island of hot garbage line from the
Speaker 1: Trump Nazi rally where he was not Hitler at Madison
Speaker 1: Square Garden. Remember also emphasize that bring your own connection
Speaker 1: to Hitler up as often as possible Trump in any event,
Speaker 1: Nicki Jam said, the reason I went for Donald Trump
Speaker 1: was because I thought he'd be the best for the
Speaker 1: economy of the United States, where a lot of Latinos live,
Speaker 1: including myself. You may recall Nicki Jam was so sold
Speaker 1: on Trump that he did not renounce him or even
Speaker 1: raise a question even after Trump brought him on stage
Speaker 1: in September with the following introduction to this man, Nicki
Speaker 1: Jam quote do you know Nicki She's hot? That Nicki
Speaker 1: Jam was okay with the damage that Trump has done
Speaker 1: to himself since Sunday over the issue of the Latino
Speaker 1: Hispanic vote is so incalculable that Nicki Jam was okay
Speaker 1: with Trump stupidly calling him she rather than he not
Speaker 1: even bothering to find out if Nicki Jam was a
Speaker 1: man or a woman. He was okay with that. With this,
Speaker 1: he's retracted his endorsement of Trump. Trump is left good,
Speaker 1: but at least he's not Hitler. I'll make this part quick.
Speaker 1: Boycott Amazon, Boycott Whole Foods. Cancel your Washington Post subscription
Speaker 1: if there are any left. The count is approaching three
Speaker 1: hundred thousand cancelations. That's a boycott. What else we need, is,
Speaker 1: of course, for organizations like MSNBC and CNN and thoughtful
Speaker 1: publishers to stop booking Washington Post reporters as guests. The
Speaker 1: whole argument that the Washington Post should not suffer just
Speaker 1: because Jeff Bezos decided to become a fascist is nonsense.
Speaker 1: If you can't convince people that it's safe to go
Speaker 1: inside your store, why should you expect them to go
Speaker 1: inside your store? Because this ultimately is what Jeff Bezos
Speaker 1: has wrought. And Jeff Bezos is a craven coward. He
Speaker 1: actually had stood up to Trump in the issue of
Speaker 1: Lauren Sanchez, my former co worker, and what would happen
Speaker 1: when the news of his affair with Lauren Sanchez came out.
Speaker 1: He stood up to Trump when they tried to blackmail
Speaker 1: him into writing nice things about Trump in the Washington Post.
Speaker 1: And he's never going to make that mistake again. And
Speaker 1: this is the outcome because no matter what you do
Speaker 1: with these people, if you think you're going to bring
Speaker 1: them to some sort of tie, no any kind of compromise,
Speaker 1: any kind of opening, they will run with and shove
Speaker 1: it back down your throat. They took Jeff Bezos's supposed
Speaker 1: neutrality and his idiotic seventh grade report that he wrote
Speaker 1: for his own paper about why he did this in
Speaker 1: the weeks before the election, rather than say, three years ago,
Speaker 1: why he decided, Oh, oh, I guess we won't have
Speaker 1: an endorsements just because billions of dollars would ride on it. Oh,
Speaker 1: I didn't mean to say that this is what he
Speaker 1: has wrought. He took this expecting that somehow Trump would
Speaker 1: be if not nice to him, at least not mean
Speaker 1: to him. Guess what Rocky Mount, North Carolina. Trump was
Speaker 1: mean to him and took that and shoved it down
Speaker 1: the throat of everybody at the Washington Post. This is
Speaker 1: what happens when you well, you know the rest of
Speaker 1: the line from the big Lebowski. Do you notice the
Speaker 1: Washington Pollers to Los Angeles Times and all these pipers,
Speaker 1: they're not endorsing anybody. You know what they're really saying
Speaker 1: because they only endorse Democrats. They're saying this, Democrats no good.
Speaker 1: They're no good, and they think I'm doing a great job.
Speaker 1: They just don't want to say it. Washington and USA Today, congratulations,
Speaker 1: I just heard usay Today has not endorsed. They said
Speaker 1: we're not going to endorse. That means that they think
Speaker 1: she's Edmund Burke did not say the only thing necessary
Speaker 1: for the triumph of evil is for good men to
Speaker 1: do nothing. Nobody we can find actually said that. It's
Speaker 1: been quoted in many places. Burke said many things that
Speaker 1: approximate that, So it's not as if somebody just made
Speaker 1: it out of whole cloth. But there it is. The
Speaker 1: only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for
Speaker 1: good men to do nothing because Jeff Bezos thought that
Speaker 1: what would have been a routine pro forma endorsement of
Speaker 1: Kamala Harris in the Washington Post might jeopardize his spaceship business,
Speaker 1: which Trump is giving to Elon Musk anyway, because he
Speaker 1: thought he might be able to save that and make
Speaker 1: a few extra billion dollars. Because of course, the more
Speaker 1: money you make, the longer you live. Right, Jeff second
Speaker 1: richest man in the world, wants more money. Whatever you
Speaker 1: think of Bill Gates, he spent the last half of
Speaker 1: his life giving away all the money because he has
Speaker 1: too much. The point of having money is to spend
Speaker 1: it on things that other people can't spend it on.
Speaker 1: Trump never figured that out. If there is a hell,
Speaker 1: he'll go to hell for that, as will Jeff Bezos.
Speaker 1: Because the only thing necessary, whoever said it, for the
Speaker 1: triumph of evil, is for good men to do nothing.
Speaker 1: Trump has now taken the fact that there was no
Speaker 1: endorsement and turned it into an endorsement of him. One
Speaker 1: last thing to come around with on the subject of
Speaker 1: Biden and garbage, I again will read this later. Biden
Speaker 1: did not call Trump supporters garbage. I've called them that
Speaker 1: make America garbage again, I think it's absolutely fitting. I
Speaker 1: do have this question, who in the world thought it
Speaker 1: was a good idea to have Joe Biden? And I
Speaker 1: understand president of the United States, he does still have
Speaker 1: some say over what he does with his life, even
Speaker 1: in the last week of a presidential camp pain in
Speaker 1: which he is a spectator for the first time since
Speaker 1: what the one in nineteen sixty eight? Who in the
Speaker 1: world thought, Who in the world said it was a
Speaker 1: good idea for him to do or for anybody peripheral
Speaker 1: to the campaign, anybody other than Kamala Harris to do
Speaker 1: anything before Kamala Harris's final argument speech from the Ellipse
Speaker 1: in Washington the other night, who thought, you know what
Speaker 1: we need to do right now, Let's put the president
Speaker 1: on with the Voto Latino people and make a little
Speaker 1: bit more out of this garbage comment. Because nothing could
Speaker 1: possibly go wrong with the President of the United States
Speaker 1: or anybody else quoting these terrible words that so enraged
Speaker 1: the Hispanic community. What could possibly you could have had
Speaker 1: anyone at all up there, including Doug Amhoff, clear the decks.
Speaker 1: You want nothing from your own side getting in the
Speaker 1: way of Kamala Harris's speech. That's the way it should instead.
Speaker 1: We have all of this, no matter how badly it
Speaker 1: has been destroyed. The reality has been destroyed by the
Speaker 1: idiotic press and Politico and all of the websites that
Speaker 1: race to attack because it's formulaic, it's a cubby hole
Speaker 1: they're familiar with. It's something familiar to them. It makes
Speaker 1: them feel like their world still exists when it doesn't.
Speaker 1: Who thought it was a good idea to have anybody
Speaker 1: get in the way of the main message? Let the
Speaker 1: next president of the United States speak, Just give her
Speaker 1: a few hours window with nobody competing with her from
Speaker 1: her own side, especially when the other side was self destructing.
Speaker 1: And I might add I don't know if anybody saw this,
Speaker 1: but somebody thought it would be a good idea to
Speaker 1: have Hunter Biden do an interview with Politico. I happen
Speaker 1: to think Hunter Biden should be suing essentially everybody in
Speaker 1: the American media for what has happened to him over
Speaker 1: the last couple of years. I'm not defending any of
Speaker 1: his actions, but his treatment is I can't describe it.
Speaker 1: It's on the level almost of the way Hillary Clinton
Speaker 1: was treated in twenty sixteen by the American media. But
Speaker 1: why is Hunter Biden quoted the day after the Kamala
Speaker 1: Harris addressed from the Ellipse clear the decks. If Jesus
Speaker 1: Christ was Secretary of Commerce. I don't know if that
Speaker 1: would be an upgrade from Buddhage Edge. I don't think
Speaker 1: it would be. But if Jesus Christ was Secretary of
Speaker 1: the Treasury and he said I want to give a
Speaker 1: zoom call with the Jesus Christ Society three hours before
Speaker 1: Kamala Harris, No, you will do it tomorrow, Okay, just
Speaker 1: basic politics. Just don't get in the way of your
Speaker 1: own message. And while the other side is self destructing,
Speaker 1: stand back and applaud. Hardly breaking news, but continuing this trend,
Speaker 1: the cyclical trend of the polls. This is the CNN
Speaker 1: poll from yesterday in Michigan. Harris is ahead of Trump
Speaker 1: forty eight to forty three, five points in Michigan among
Speaker 1: likely voters Wisconsin fifty one forty five, Harris six percent.
Speaker 1: Among likelies, They're tied in Pennsylvania at forty eight percent support.
Speaker 1: These numbers are essentially unchanged in the CNN poll since
Speaker 1: late summer, although one assumes there was a roller coaster ride,
Speaker 1: just as there was in all the other poles. The
Speaker 1: interior numbers always mean more, but as an indicator, the
Speaker 1: national or large swing state polls have some value to
Speaker 1: see where you stand relative to earlier earlier in the race,
Speaker 1: and the answer is out about the same point as
Speaker 1: was phrased very elegantly at five thirty eight dot Com yesterday,
Speaker 1: either side is within the margin of error of a
Speaker 1: blowout wind victory next Tuesday, and the blowout victory would
Speaker 1: be more likely for Harris those interior numbers. Though. In
Speaker 1: the CNN poll among likely voters who say they're extremely
Speaker 1: motivated in Michigan, fifty one percent support Harris forty five Trump,
Speaker 1: So the lead is six in Michigan, not five in Wisconsin.
Speaker 1: It's fifty two to forty seven Harris at in Pennsylvania,
Speaker 1: which is otherwise tied, is otherwise forty eight to forty
Speaker 1: eight motivated likely voters Harris fifty Trump forty seven let's
Speaker 1: get out the boat time undecided and could change. CNN
Speaker 1: says just eight percent of likely voters in Pennsylvania are
Speaker 1: still in either of those categories, seven percent in Michigan,
Speaker 1: six percent in Wisconsin. They haven't made a choice or
Speaker 1: they're not sure that's the way they're going to vote.
Speaker 1: It's going to come down probably to the last few days.
Speaker 1: And remember from the Emerson polling those people in both categories,
Speaker 1: the undecideds and also the independents, but the undecideds and
Speaker 1: the not absolutely certain voters are breaking to Kamala Harris.
Speaker 1: Sixty to thirty six. The late deciders were voting for
Speaker 1: Kamala Harris, and the number for those who were not sure,
Speaker 1: I don't remember it off the top of my head,
Speaker 1: but it was a ten point lead for Harris. Eight
Speaker 1: percent of likely voters in Pennsylvania conceivably breaking somewhere around
Speaker 1: what would the average of that be fifty two forty
Speaker 1: eight to Harris, fifty five forty five to Harris take
Speaker 1: it and one other interior number trust to handle the economy.
Speaker 1: Trump is up by just four points in Michigan over Harris,
Speaker 1: just three points in Wisconsin, and as they point out,
Speaker 1: that is within each poll's margin of sampling error. In Pennsylvania,
Speaker 1: it's not that close. Comparatively, it's eight points Trump ahead.
Speaker 1: When this started, it was twenty five points Trump ahead.
Speaker 1: Every interior number for the last three months has broken
Speaker 1: in the direction of Kamala Harris fingers crossed, We're all
Speaker 1: hopeful and Nobody's garbage and Nobody's Hitler. Two other stories
Speaker 1: what would happen if Trump actually got into office and
Speaker 1: did the deportation. The Miami Herald cites a story a
Speaker 1: source and investigation by the American Immigration Council. It says
Speaker 1: one in twenty Floridians would be expelled from the country.
Speaker 1: The Trump planned to deport thirteen million, three hundred thousand
Speaker 1: undocumented or otherwise removable immigrants. According to this immigration advocacy
Speaker 1: think tank, Florida would be devastated by this because it
Speaker 1: would lose one zero point one million people. Five percent
Speaker 1: of the population of Florida would disappear. It would cost
Speaker 1: three hundred and fifteen billion dollars to remove these people.
Speaker 1: The report indicates that annual US gross domestic product could
Speaker 1: drop by as much as six point eight percent. Government
Speaker 1: tax coffers that pay for schools and other critical sources
Speaker 1: would also take a hit. Remember that the undocumented immigrants
Speaker 1: paid nearly seventy seven billion dollars in local, state, and
Speaker 1: federal taxes in twenty twenty two, despite not being able
Speaker 1: to take out almost any of the resources. Basically, these
Speaker 1: people are funding things like social Security, and there would
Speaker 1: be one million fewer people in Florida. And guess where
Speaker 1: they work Agriculture and construction. As climate change destroys agriculture
Speaker 1: and construction in Florida. Good work and internationally, why Trump
Speaker 1: would be a disaster. The Times of Israel says Trump
Speaker 1: has told Benjamin Netanyaho he wants Israel to wrap up
Speaker 1: the war in Gaza by the time he returns to office.
Speaker 1: According to sources, the message first conveyed Times of Israel
Speaker 1: when the nominee hosted net Yahoo at Mary Lago in July.
Speaker 1: They're quoting both a former Trump administration official and an
Speaker 1: official in Israel. Trump has publicly confirmed telling Netanyah, who
Speaker 1: he wants Israel to win the war quickly. But this
Speaker 1: is not what we're talking about. We're not talking about
Speaker 1: resolving this. And again, this would be relevant to anybody
Speaker 1: voting against Biden's role in the Middle East or the
Speaker 1: United States current position in the Middle East and taking
Speaker 1: it out on Kamala Harris, because certainly Trump would be
Speaker 1: much better for the Middle East. The former US official
Speaker 1: stress that Trump was not specific in his appeal to
Speaker 1: Nettan Yahoo and could well back residual Israeli defense forces
Speaker 1: activity in Gaza so long as Jerusalem has officially ended
Speaker 1: the war. So it's the advice to Lyndon Johnson. Trump
Speaker 1: wants Benjamin Netanyahu to declare victory and get out, but
Speaker 1: he can keep having the war if he wants, because
Speaker 1: that's all it is to Trump. Go ahead, vote in
Speaker 1: such a way that you increased Trump's chances of getting
Speaker 1: in to office, because he's really going to do the
Speaker 1: right thing, because remember, he's not Hitler, and he's not
Speaker 1: garbage Hitler. A note about this podcast going forward. You
Speaker 1: may have heard it sound a lot more ragged and
Speaker 1: less well produced than it has been previously. Then there
Speaker 1: have been stumbles that I have not gone back and corrected,
Speaker 1: and probably a few misspoken words thrown here and there.
Speaker 1: I apologize to you for those and the ones in advance.
Speaker 1: It's going to be this way, at least for a while.
Speaker 1: You know of my love for dawugs, and I always
Speaker 1: have at least one rescue and I welcomed two weeks
Speaker 1: ago a little five month old Maltese named Kit who
Speaker 1: was especially precious to me. Because my late seventeen year
Speaker 1: old Minee died in July and Menee was French for Kitty.
Speaker 1: And one day the rescue people call up and say, hey,
Speaker 1: we have this dog named Kit, and I went what
Speaker 1: And the woman from the rescue association realized, I said,
Speaker 1: I wouldn't be a bit surprised if when he walks
Speaker 1: in here, Kit says, Mene sent me. Kit has a
Speaker 1: bad heart. He has a vein or artery that should
Speaker 1: not be there that sends some oxygenated blood back in
Speaker 1: the wrong direction. We knew it was a problem and
Speaker 1: it would likely require surgery, although it might be treatable
Speaker 1: with medication. And yesterday Kit got his check up and
Speaker 1: it is much worse than we thought. Kit is a brilliant, funny, smart,
Speaker 1: proactive dog who seems to understand what you want from him.
Speaker 1: When they went to do all of the not just
Speaker 1: physical examinations of him at the animal hospital yesterday, but
Speaker 1: when they went to do the pictures, when they went
Speaker 1: to do the scan and to actually do a scope
Speaker 1: to see what his heart looked like and what these
Speaker 1: veins looked like, in particular the one that's going to
Speaker 1: cause him a lot of trouble if it's not corrected surgically.
Speaker 1: He just sat quietly on his side and then they
Speaker 1: needed to turn him over under the other side, and
Speaker 1: he did that too. They didn't have to sedate him,
Speaker 1: they didn't have to bribe him with treats. He just
Speaker 1: did it, which has been my experience with him. He's
Speaker 1: a lovely little puppy. And if he doesn't have this surgery,
Speaker 1: he's going to die, and he may not survive the surgery.
Speaker 1: And we're going to try to do it in the
Speaker 1: next month, So I will continue this podcast. God willing,
Speaker 1: and the creek don't rise, we can clear up the
Speaker 1: election in a good way. I what end of next
Speaker 1: week or the week after, and I can put this
Speaker 1: thing on hiatus for a while. In the interim, I'm
Speaker 1: going to cut back how much time I devote on this,
Speaker 1: even now, even in the hours days before the election,
Speaker 1: I'm going to cut it back significantly. So I'm going
Speaker 1: to ask you to help me to help Kit by
Speaker 1: limiting what I would be saying listening to this going man,
Speaker 1: did you hear him stumble today? Because I want to
Speaker 1: spend as much time with Kit as I can. Still
Speaker 1: doing worse persons. That's next. This is countent George Crollin'
Speaker 1: a pleasure to have you here. Thank you. This is
Speaker 1: the best news show ever. I toil that to one
Speaker 1: of your producers, and I want you to know that
Speaker 1: I've seen them all and it's just for especially the
Speaker 1: first thirty five minutes. Thank you. It's just unparalleled. I
Speaker 1: got bad news between you and I. We got six
Speaker 1: minutes to completely strow that in here. That's okay, George
Speaker 1: Carlin is there for a reason. I have a picture
Speaker 1: of George signed on my wall and he's holding a dog.
Speaker 1: It's a publicity photo from Bob and Bill and Ted's
Speaker 1: excellent adventurous suits. I don't know, George love dogs. Time
Speaker 1: for the daily roundup of the misgrants and Dunning Kruger
Speaker 1: effects specimens who constitute today's worse persons in the world.
Speaker 1: The Bronze Worse, Bernie moreno car salesman, wage thief, resume patter,
Speaker 1: and moron clearly failed a civics class if you ever
Speaker 1: took one neck and neck for the Senate from Ohio
Speaker 1: with Shared Brown because he's a Republican and they finally
Speaker 1: found the formula to make the Republican Party work put
Speaker 1: stupid people out there. So the stupid people who would
Speaker 1: vote Republican have somebody even stupider than themselves they can
Speaker 1: relate to. Talking about Kamala Harris and immigration on Newsmax,
Speaker 1: the network for stupid people. She's the vice president of
Speaker 1: the United States, said Bernie Moreno. Why doesn't she just
Speaker 1: walk into the building right behind her sign an executive
Speaker 1: order restating the ones Trump had and deport the criminals
Speaker 1: right now? Why would you have to wait till January?
Speaker 1: It's obscene. Well, sir, the vice president of the United
Speaker 1: States is not allowed to issue executive orders. That's the
Speaker 1: job of the president. Now, mister Moreno, how many senators
Speaker 1: are there? How many states are there in the United States?
Speaker 1: How do you spell your own name? Is Trump? Hitler?
Speaker 1: Can you answer any of these questions? Because the question
Speaker 1: is about mister Moreno's education. He attended Michigan. All right, fine,
Speaker 1: I'm not going to go off on the University of
Speaker 1: Michigan now. But he got a bachelor's degree in business administration.
Speaker 1: He was a board member on the Cleveland Foundation, and
Speaker 1: in his bio he said he also had a master's
Speaker 1: in business administration. Turned out he didn't, and clearly he
Speaker 1: did not get one hundred percent on the thirty seven
Speaker 1: Civics classes that he didn't take. The best one of
Speaker 1: all this was though, when he was caught patting his resume,
Speaker 1: his educational resume at the University of Michigan, which by
Speaker 1: itself should eliminate him from contention for Senator from Ohio,
Speaker 1: if you know how Michiganders and Ohioans feel about each other.
Speaker 1: But when this was discovered, he blamed the error on
Speaker 1: quote a staffer who made a mistake. Yeah, I know
Speaker 1: what the mistake was. The mistake was you were working
Speaker 1: for Bernie Moreno runner up our Fox. Gonna say it again.
Speaker 1: When I started criticizing Fox News in nineteen ninety seven
Speaker 1: on MSNBC, people said, you just doing it to Channing
Speaker 1: get their innings. When I went after Bill O'Reilly and
Speaker 1: everybody else and Sean Hannity and all the people on
Speaker 1: the air there, and Roger Ales and all the other
Speaker 1: liars and scumbags and destined for hell propagandists and fascists,
Speaker 1: people went, oh, he's just trying to be the liberal
Speaker 1: fellow O'Reilly. No. These were some of the graphics that
Speaker 1: Fox when it carried the Harris speech from the Ellipse
Speaker 1: on Tuesday night. These are some of the full screens
Speaker 1: the stripes Kamala lists policies she failed to enact as VP,
Speaker 1: and all of these, by the way, had the phrase
Speaker 1: Fox News Alert under it and a promo for the
Speaker 1: Hannity Show with special guest Trump. If you've been on
Speaker 1: one show two hundred and eighty one times, how are
Speaker 1: you a special guest anymore? Aren't your co host? By
Speaker 1: the way, Kamala list Paul she failed to enact as VP.
Speaker 1: Kamala vows to lower costs after three and a half years.
Speaker 1: Kamala calls for unity while trashing Trump. Kamala's focus is
Speaker 1: on Trump, not voters. Kamala's final pitch to voters is
Speaker 1: all about Trump. Desperate Kamala closing message all about Trump.
Speaker 1: Kamala pushes fear in closing message. Kamala calls for unity
Speaker 1: while trashing Trump. And the last one help, I'm being
Speaker 1: held hostage in the Trump Fox News graphics chamber. No
Speaker 1: I made that one up. It's it truly is Rupert
Speaker 1: Murdoch's finest expression of his desire to destroy society worldwide.
Speaker 1: If one day Rupert Murdoch simply pulled off the mask
Speaker 1: and was identified as Satan. I'd go, I told you
Speaker 1: I wasn't doing it for ratings, but our winners the worst.
Speaker 1: I skipped one. I told ja I was going to
Speaker 1: screw up a little bit here, got ahead of myself
Speaker 1: on that the winners the worst. Rachel Bade of Politico
Speaker 1: and Chris solisa Biden campaign on clean up duty, regardless
Speaker 1: of what he meant, ours are already using this as
Speaker 1: a way to pivot from the Puerto Rico controversy. This
Speaker 1: is what Rachel Bade wrote after the Harris address and
Speaker 1: the Biden comments I referenced earlier. First of all, the
Speaker 1: Biden campaign. What Biden campaign is that, madam, She's now
Speaker 1: in charge of Politico's playbook after the Pole Ryan Lizza thing.
Speaker 1: Regardless of what he meant, this is what he said.
Speaker 1: Just the other day, a speaker at his Trump's rally
Speaker 1: called Puerto Rico a floating island of garbage. Well, let
Speaker 1: me tell you something I don't. I don't know the
Speaker 1: Puerto rican that that I know of, or Puerto Rico
Speaker 1: where I'm from in my home state of Delaware, they're good, decent,
Speaker 1: honorable people. The only garbage I see floating out there
Speaker 1: is his supporters. His immanization of Latinos is unconscionable. He's
Speaker 1: referring to one supporter regardless of what he meant. The
Speaker 1: Biden campaign woman should be fired immediately. Just because Ryan
Speaker 1: Lizz's career is over. That doesn't mean Rachel Bade, you're
Speaker 1: any less unqualified than you were two weeks ago. Find
Speaker 1: another line of work. You're as bad as Chris Slizza. Also,
Speaker 1: the attempt to transcribe this by the White House as
Speaker 1: supporter apostrophe s as opposed to supporter's plural, which he
Speaker 1: clearly says is laughable. So Chris is saying he can
Speaker 1: hear apostrophes. Every time I think I understand how stupid
Speaker 1: Chris Silizza is, he proves me wrong. He is on
Speaker 1: the mount Rushmore of stupidity in political media. In fact,
Speaker 1: there are only four figures up there, and they're all
Speaker 1: Chris Slissa. Chris Silizza up just to let me do that.
Speaker 1: Read and again, the attempt to transcribe it by the
Speaker 1: White House as supporter apostrophys as opposed to supporters, which
Speaker 1: he clearly says is laughable, Chris, that you continue to
Speaker 1: do this is laughable. Chris Stali is a roll called
Speaker 1: No the Cook, Political Washington, MSNBC, Meet the Press, No, No,
Speaker 1: No CNN, his own newsletter. Oh right, Chris now going
Speaker 1: door to door with his opinion Solizza two days, worst part,
Speaker 1: sudden in the world. Guy, legitimate, guy strong. But you
Speaker 1: know he always used to tell me never use the
Speaker 1: word Nazi and never use the Hitler. Now we're called
Speaker 1: Nazis and I'm called hitler. I'm not Hitler. I've done
Speaker 1: all the damage I can do here. Thank you for listening,
Speaker 1: and again, thank you in advance for your understanding on
Speaker 1: the variabilities that will now affect this podcast going forward
Speaker 1: due to the health of the young puppy Kit. I'm
Speaker 1: going to be faced with a lot of choices, and
Speaker 1: one of the choices will be do you want to
Speaker 1: spend time working on this podcast and getting it just
Speaker 1: right or getting it out good enough and then not
Speaker 1: getting it out when it isn't necessary and spending the
Speaker 1: time with Kit. I'm going to assume this is all
Speaker 1: the time he has bear with me. Brian Ray and
Speaker 1: John Phillip shoneil the musicals have Countdown arranged, produced, and
Speaker 1: performed most of our music. Mister Chanelle handled orchestration and keyboards,
Speaker 1: mister ray On guitars, based and drums, and it was
Speaker 1: produced by Tko Brothers. Haven't heard a lot of this lately,
Speaker 1: but our satirical and pithy musical comments are by the
Speaker 1: best baseball stadium organist ever, Nancy Faust, and I thank
Speaker 1: Nancy for her indulgence on this too. The sports music.
Speaker 1: We've done sports segments before. I just don't remember when.
Speaker 1: The last one was the Olderman theme from ESPN two,
Speaker 1: written by Mitch Warren Davis courtesy of ESPN Inc. I
Speaker 1: remember ESPN other music arranged and performed by the group
Speaker 1: No Horns allowed. As mentioned earlier, George Carlin, my late friend,
Speaker 1: was my guest announcer today. Due to the dog references,
Speaker 1: everything else pretty much my fault. So that's countdown for today.
Speaker 1: Five days until the twenty twenty four presidential election. Three
Speaker 1: hundred and ninety five days since convicted feldon associative fugue
Speaker 1: Jay Trump, who's not Hitler and not Garbage. Don't think
Speaker 1: of Trump, Hitler and Garbage together again. Whatever you do,
Speaker 1: don't do that. He doesn't want you to do that.
Speaker 1: That's why I dressed up as a garbage man and
Speaker 1: said Hella HELLU. Thirteen d and ninety five days since
Speaker 1: he got away with his first attempted coup against the
Speaker 1: democratically elected government of the United States. Use the election,
Speaker 1: use the metal health system, hell use presidential immunity. President Biden,
Speaker 1: you are authorized to do anything you want. Wednesday morning,
Speaker 1: sit down and say now, what do I want to
Speaker 1: do to Trump? And do it. Use all of these
Speaker 1: things to keep Trump from doing it again while we
Speaker 1: still have an effing chance. The next scheduled countdown is tomorrow. Again,
Speaker 1: things may change Bolton's as the news requires till the
Speaker 1: next one. I'm Keith Olderman. Good morning, good afternoon, good night,
Speaker 1: and good luck. Countdown with Keith Olderman is a production
Speaker 1: of iHeartRadio. For more podcasts from iHeartRadio, visit the iHeartRadio app,
