1 00:00:00,640 --> 00:00:02,560 Speaker 1: And but you, Scott Shannon, and thanks to all of 2 00:00:02,560 --> 00:00:04,960 Speaker 1: you for being with us right down our toll free 3 00:00:04,960 --> 00:00:09,080 Speaker 1: telehoone number. We'd love to hear from you from beautiful Milwaukee. 4 00:00:09,119 --> 00:00:14,480 Speaker 1: If you'll Linda in Wisconsin. How do you say Milwaukee, Milwaukee? 5 00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:19,520 Speaker 1: That's how you stay that way? I'm I'm here, Milwaukee, 6 00:00:19,680 --> 00:00:22,160 Speaker 1: Million York, Milwaukee, not in Milwaukee. 7 00:00:22,200 --> 00:00:24,720 Speaker 2: Is not Milwaukee? Oh, good grief. 8 00:00:25,200 --> 00:00:27,520 Speaker 1: Eight hundred and nine four one sean one hundred and 9 00:00:27,560 --> 00:00:31,200 Speaker 1: thirteen days until election day, sixty three days until early 10 00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:35,120 Speaker 1: voting begins. That would be in the great state of Pennsylvania, 11 00:00:35,240 --> 00:00:38,720 Speaker 1: then rolling out across the country, and we are literally 12 00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:43,560 Speaker 1: maybe within an hour two hours of hearing who Donald 13 00:00:43,560 --> 00:00:46,680 Speaker 1: Trump has chosen for vice president. All indications are it 14 00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:52,280 Speaker 1: is Ohio Congress Ohio Senator jd Vance, although there's still 15 00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:54,920 Speaker 1: a little bit of intrigue on the sidelines, but from 16 00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:59,200 Speaker 1: every source indication I have it's gonna be Jda and 17 00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:02,640 Speaker 1: we're gonna watch. I have been on the air a lot, 18 00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:05,880 Speaker 1: but I've not been on the radio waves since the 19 00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:11,560 Speaker 1: shooting that took place of Donald Trump at this rally 20 00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:12,560 Speaker 1: in Pennsylvania. 21 00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:16,880 Speaker 2: And I have a lot to say about it. Number one. 22 00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:20,360 Speaker 1: It just shows you how life can really hang in 23 00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:23,200 Speaker 1: the balance, doesn't it. I mean, if we're a millimeter 24 00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:28,360 Speaker 1: in another direction, Donald Trump is no longer on this 25 00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:31,560 Speaker 1: earth and we're talking about a state funeral. I mean, 26 00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:35,960 Speaker 1: if you really let absorb that, it is pretty unbelievable. 27 00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:39,960 Speaker 1: And that's where we are as unfortunately as a country. 28 00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:43,120 Speaker 1: I have a lot of thoughts about the left in 29 00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:47,760 Speaker 1: this country. They're incendiary rhetoric. Unlike them, I'm not going 30 00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:51,040 Speaker 1: to blame anybody but the people, and it might be people, 31 00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:54,480 Speaker 1: not one person, but I don't blame the person themselves 32 00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:58,960 Speaker 1: for their actions. But there is a discussion this country 33 00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:03,480 Speaker 1: needs to have as it relates to the incendiary, insane, 34 00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:10,400 Speaker 1: radicalized rhetoric of this new Marxist Socialist Democratic Party, because 35 00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:15,919 Speaker 1: it is cancer, it is destructive. They have dehumanized this man. 36 00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:21,440 Speaker 1: They have done everything possible to destroy him. 37 00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:22,200 Speaker 2: I'm not going to. 38 00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:26,200 Speaker 1: Lie and say that I am surprised by what happened. 39 00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:30,000 Speaker 1: I had said to many of my friends that I 40 00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:33,640 Speaker 1: pray that I'm wrong, but I fear that Donald Trump. 41 00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:36,160 Speaker 1: You know that there are so many people out there 42 00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:40,040 Speaker 1: that have been have been taught to believe and conditioned 43 00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:46,000 Speaker 1: mentally to believe that he is the devil incarnate and evil, 44 00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:49,919 Speaker 1: that in fact they will think that they're doing God's 45 00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:53,639 Speaker 1: will if they try to take him out. The mob, 46 00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 1: the media, state run media, and the Democratic Party, and 47 00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:01,480 Speaker 1: I've got all their tapes. We have a catalog that 48 00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:05,280 Speaker 1: I can spend an entire program on that will chronicle 49 00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:09,720 Speaker 1: this for you. And we got this close that President 50 00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:14,000 Speaker 1: Trump's ear was in fact pierced with a bullet, wasn't 51 00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:18,720 Speaker 1: grazed with a bullet, pierced with a bullet, and it is, 52 00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:22,080 Speaker 1: you know, there's no doubt. I mean President Trump actually 53 00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:25,200 Speaker 1: said today I'm actually somebody who should. 54 00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:27,280 Speaker 2: Be dead, and it was that close. 55 00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:34,119 Speaker 1: I have real anger towards what is a massive security 56 00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:39,040 Speaker 1: failure in this country that this should not happen in 57 00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:41,800 Speaker 1: the United States of America in this day and age. 58 00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:44,200 Speaker 1: You know, when I went on the air Saturday night, 59 00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:47,640 Speaker 1: we did two hours on Saturday Night on Fox, we 60 00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:50,200 Speaker 1: were told a reporter on the season, I said, well, 61 00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:54,480 Speaker 1: how far away was the rooftop? And these look but 62 00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:58,200 Speaker 1: reporters on the ground in the moment something happening, They're 63 00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:00,720 Speaker 1: doing the best they can with and then they're trying 64 00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:02,880 Speaker 1: to accumulate information while you're on the air. 65 00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:05,800 Speaker 2: It's a tough job. And they got. 66 00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:08,560 Speaker 1: Closed between two and three hundred yards. It turns out 67 00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:12,080 Speaker 1: it was about one hundred and thirty yards. Most of 68 00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:18,039 Speaker 1: you and this audience know that. Okay, it just got announced. 69 00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:22,760 Speaker 1: President Trump has officially endorsed and chosen jd Vance of Ohio. 70 00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:26,359 Speaker 1: A full background information will go at him. We'll go 71 00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:29,000 Speaker 1: over in the course of the program. The Left has 72 00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:32,680 Speaker 1: already been telegraphing all of their arguments, all of the 73 00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:35,200 Speaker 1: attacks that they will be making. It's going to be 74 00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:39,359 Speaker 1: interesting if they follow Joe Biden's admonition last night to 75 00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:42,680 Speaker 1: lower the temperature, which we'll go into some specificity in 76 00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:45,599 Speaker 1: detail today, which in and of itself has been a joke. 77 00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:53,279 Speaker 1: So it is pretty unbelievable to me that people just 78 00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:55,520 Speaker 1: want to wash their hands. Oh, we need to lower 79 00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:57,719 Speaker 1: the temperature. It's a little too late, because if you 80 00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:00,920 Speaker 1: go back just last week alone and into the rhetoric 81 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:05,320 Speaker 1: of Joe and Jill Biden and I have you know, 82 00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:09,039 Speaker 1: cuts of Joe from Friday, and I want to play 83 00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:12,960 Speaker 1: him from Friday. It's a little ironic that the day 84 00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:16,920 Speaker 1: after that, you know this is the incident, and then 85 00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:20,520 Speaker 1: here we are over the weekend. At one point one 86 00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:22,839 Speaker 1: of the speeches, Biden gave him one of the statements 87 00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:27,279 Speaker 1: that he made, Well, it's just not appropriate, not appropriate, 88 00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:32,560 Speaker 1: not appropriate to try an assassination attempt on a former 89 00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:35,920 Speaker 1: president and a leading presidential candidate. 90 00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:38,120 Speaker 2: It's a little beyond not. 91 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:43,520 Speaker 1: Appropriate, Joe, and but that is what he said. So 92 00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:46,919 Speaker 1: with all the lectures, and frankly saved me the lectures 93 00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:50,600 Speaker 1: from Democrats and the left in this country because I 94 00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:53,440 Speaker 1: am sick and tired. You know, we've been lied to 95 00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:58,320 Speaker 1: forever by them. We have chronicled in detail on this 96 00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:02,920 Speaker 1: program what they have done to destroy this man and 97 00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:07,479 Speaker 1: then to come within a millimeter of assassinating this man. No, 98 00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:11,599 Speaker 1: the Democrats, they themselves didn't do it. With the other 99 00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:15,200 Speaker 1: people involved, I have no knowledge of that. Now it's 100 00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:17,800 Speaker 1: been a little slow to get some real background on 101 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:21,360 Speaker 1: this guy, which makes me awfully suspicious. I am very 102 00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:24,240 Speaker 1: disappointed in people that I have come to know, many 103 00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:26,120 Speaker 1: of whom I've come to know and like, and that 104 00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:28,960 Speaker 1: is the Secret Service. I have met so many of 105 00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:32,200 Speaker 1: these guys. Now I will praise the Secret Service agents 106 00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:36,080 Speaker 1: that were around President Trump when this incident occurred, they 107 00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:39,279 Speaker 1: moved quickly, they threw their body on top of him, 108 00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:41,960 Speaker 1: and they were willing to take the bullet for him. 109 00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:44,840 Speaker 1: That is what they're trained to do. And they did it, 110 00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:47,159 Speaker 1: and they did it professionally, and they did it quickly, 111 00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:49,120 Speaker 1: and they did it to the best of their ability. 112 00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:51,120 Speaker 2: And then they got him off the stage. 113 00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:54,919 Speaker 1: The backstory is they had a different exit plan and 114 00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:58,240 Speaker 1: Donald Trump said, hell, no, give me my shoes. I'm 115 00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:02,320 Speaker 1: walking out, walking off the stage. And I know because 116 00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:04,320 Speaker 1: I've talked to the former president. 117 00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:04,720 Speaker 2: About what happened. 118 00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:10,160 Speaker 1: So anyway, longer story short is, he walked out, and 119 00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:13,520 Speaker 1: then we now have an iconic photo and that is 120 00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:17,200 Speaker 1: Donald Trump with his fist in the air, pumping it 121 00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:20,680 Speaker 1: hard like he just scored the winning goal in gain 122 00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:23,920 Speaker 1: seven of an overtime game in the Stanley Cup playoffs. 123 00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:27,080 Speaker 1: Well kind of like when Mike Florida Panthers ended up 124 00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:29,320 Speaker 1: beating the Edmonton Oilers two to one in the seventh 125 00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:31,440 Speaker 1: game of the finals. You know, you do a kind 126 00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:34,320 Speaker 1: of fist pump like that, which has now become a 127 00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:39,200 Speaker 1: very iconic image. And when you just compare that moment 128 00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:44,960 Speaker 1: of will and strength and fortitude and just frankly toughness 129 00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:50,320 Speaker 1: to this weak, frail, cognitive mess of a president. Joe Biden. 130 00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:53,440 Speaker 1: What a distinction. But this is what Joe Biden was 131 00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:58,120 Speaker 1: saying Friday, most importantly, I mean this from the bottom 132 00:07:58,120 --> 00:07:58,520 Speaker 1: of art. 133 00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:00,320 Speaker 3: Trump is a threat to this nation. 134 00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:05,600 Speaker 1: He led a violent mob on January sixth, go return 135 00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:06,800 Speaker 1: of twenty twenty elections. 136 00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:11,280 Speaker 2: Hold on the power the election I won by seven 137 00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:15,760 Speaker 2: million votes. So here we are. 138 00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:21,840 Speaker 1: That's him. On Friday. Jill Biden during the week last 139 00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:27,320 Speaker 1: week referred to Donald J. Trump as being evil now 140 00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:31,000 Speaker 1: in the middle of his lecture speech that he's given 141 00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:33,360 Speaker 1: the nation last night, and we'll get to JD. Vance, 142 00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:36,440 Speaker 1: who has just been announced as President Trump's choice for 143 00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:41,439 Speaker 1: vice president. When you get to this lecture that he's 144 00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:46,479 Speaker 1: giving the nation last night on the issue of civility 145 00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:51,079 Speaker 1: in America and lowering the temperature, I'm like, you gotta 146 00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:56,080 Speaker 1: be kidding, because all we've heard Democrats have been perfectly fine, 147 00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:59,640 Speaker 1: no problem at all. Oh and did I mention that 148 00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:04,120 Speaker 1: the legitimacy of the appointment of Jack Smith the special 149 00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:08,280 Speaker 1: prosecutor now has been thrown out in the case in Florida. 150 00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:12,840 Speaker 1: The entire document's case is gone, Well, let's see what 151 00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:17,360 Speaker 1: Joe's weaponized doo jay does in this era of lowering 152 00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:20,600 Speaker 1: the temperature, considering that the left in this country has 153 00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:24,520 Speaker 1: done everything to raise it. Just incredible times that we 154 00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:26,800 Speaker 1: are living in and there's so much to talk about. 155 00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:30,679 Speaker 1: And so as I look and I listened to all 156 00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:36,240 Speaker 1: of this, I'm thinking, you know, in that speech Joe 157 00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:41,480 Speaker 1: Biden mentions January sixth, but what was really glaringly absent 158 00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:45,400 Speaker 1: was any reference to what happened in the summer of 159 00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:48,440 Speaker 1: twenty twenty. In the summer of twenty twenty, what did 160 00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:52,480 Speaker 1: we see? We saw five hundred and seventy four riots, 161 00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:57,480 Speaker 1: a couple of dozen dead Americans. We saw thousands of 162 00:09:57,600 --> 00:10:01,720 Speaker 1: injured cops. We have the images at in our minds 163 00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:06,200 Speaker 1: being pelted with bricks and rocks and bottles and Molotov cocktails, 164 00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:10,320 Speaker 1: billions and billions in property damage. You have a vice 165 00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:15,880 Speaker 1: president that Joe Biden, mister lower the temperature, chose that 166 00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:19,560 Speaker 1: five days after the police precinct the Minneapolis was burned 167 00:10:19,559 --> 00:10:23,439 Speaker 1: to the ground, put out a tweet for a bail fund, 168 00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:27,040 Speaker 1: A bail fund whose annual revenue was a quarter of 169 00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:31,280 Speaker 1: a million dollars in twenty nineteen. But after she promoted 170 00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:34,960 Speaker 1: this bail fund ended up being forty two million dollars 171 00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:38,400 Speaker 1: and she said it was for those protesting on the 172 00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:41,520 Speaker 1: ground of Minnesota.

A jury 198 00:11:56,840 --> 00:12:00,839 Speaker 1: convicted him a first degree murder over that incident. Overall, 199 00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:05,120 Speaker 1: even fake news CNN had an investigation. Sixty five people 200 00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:09,559 Speaker 1: you can thank Kamala Harris in this environment of lowering 201 00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:13,000 Speaker 1: the temperature, were bailed out by the Freedom Fund while 202 00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:17,319 Speaker 1: facing felony charges involving violence, physical threats, or sex crimes. 203 00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:21,120 Speaker 1: And guess what, every single solitary one of them was 204 00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:26,760 Speaker 1: convicted on those charges. Oh, let's lower the temperature, everybody, 205 00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:29,520 Speaker 1: shall we? What about Chuck Schumer on the steps of 206 00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:32,760 Speaker 1: the Supreme Court. Maybe he should call him and lecture 207 00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:36,880 Speaker 1: him about lowering the temperature, because you do remember they 208 00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:40,920 Speaker 1: went after Justice Kavanaugh and they were doxing the Supreme 209 00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:43,120 Speaker 1: of the homes of Supreme Court justices. 210 00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:46,600 Speaker 2: Here's Chucky.

Beware, beware. 217 00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:11,440 Speaker 1: Okay, sounds like they're all where's lisz Cheney when you 218 00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:13,720 Speaker 1: need her? It sounds like they're all insurrectionists to me. 219 00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:18,320 Speaker 1: And when is Biden going to apologize to telling his 220 00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:21,400 Speaker 1: supporters forth telling his supporters to put Donald Trump in 221 00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:25,400 Speaker 1: the bullseye. Because we know Biden, I'm sure he's not. 222 00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:28,760 Speaker 1: If so obvious, it's not serious about what he's saying, 223 00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:32,800 Speaker 1: because he would have apologized last night for telling supporters, quote, 224 00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:37,200 Speaker 1: put Donald Trump in the bullseye, five days before Donald 225 00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:41,199 Speaker 1: Trump was shot. This was from the BBC group of 226 00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:43,960 Speaker 1: Republican lawmakers, pointing to a comment Biden made on a 227 00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:47,720 Speaker 1: private call with donors last week. According to Politico, Biden 228 00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:49,640 Speaker 1: said on the call, I have one job, and that 229 00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:53,120 Speaker 1: is to beat Donald Trump. I'm absolutely certain I'm the 230 00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:55,840 Speaker 1: best person to be able to do that. So we're 231 00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:58,440 Speaker 1: done talking about the debate. It's time to put Trump 232 00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:03,000 Speaker 1: in a bullseye. On the aftermath of the assassination attempt, 233 00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:06,240 Speaker 1: Trump in a bullseye less than a week before Trump 234 00:14:06,320 --> 00:14:09,760 Speaker 1: was in a bullseye. You know, it's led many Republicans 235 00:14:09,840 --> 00:14:12,720 Speaker 1: to say, really, we're going to get lectured by them, 236 00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:14,800 Speaker 1: And I'm gonna be clear. I'm gonna go back to 237 00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:18,520 Speaker 1: where I started. I don't do what they did when 238 00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:22,000 Speaker 1: a Bernie Sanders supporter shot up Steve Scalise and other 239 00:14:22,040 --> 00:14:24,600 Speaker 1: Republicans in a ball field. I don't play that game 240 00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:28,520 Speaker 1: of blaming, you know, Bernie Sanders for what some lunatic does. 241 00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:32,520 Speaker 1: But this rhetoric has gotten out of control, and the lectures. 242 00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:35,520 Speaker 1: Please save me the lectures, and save me your lectures 243 00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:39,880 Speaker 1: about insurrection, and save me your lectures about civility, because 244 00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:44,760 Speaker 1: you're responsible for the lies about January sixth and the 245 00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:46,960 Speaker 1: fact that you didn't tell the country the whole truth. 246 00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:50,560 Speaker 1: You know, they so much of that was hidden from 247 00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:53,120 Speaker 1: the American people. Donald Trump willing to call up ten 248 00:14:53,160 --> 00:14:56,560 Speaker 1: thousand troops, not wanting to hear from the Capitol Police 249 00:14:56,640 --> 00:15:02,120 Speaker 1: chief Son, so many other details and documents. Now nobody 250 00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:05,000 Speaker 1: in the Democratic Party of the media state run mob, 251 00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:08,320 Speaker 1: none of them seemed to care at all that Donald 252 00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:11,120 Speaker 1: Trump's home was not valued really in real life at 253 00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:14,560 Speaker 1: eighteen million. They didn't care at all about misdemeanor charges 254 00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:17,280 Speaker 1: whose statute of limitations had run out. They didn't care 255 00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:20,040 Speaker 1: at all that it was upgraded to a thirty four 256 00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:22,760 Speaker 1: count felony. But that should end up the way the 257 00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:27,200 Speaker 1: case down in Florida ended today. Anyway, we'll get to 258 00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:30,160 Speaker 1: all that. President Trump just announcing right here in the 259 00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:33,880 Speaker 1: beginning of the program.

Many people, myself included, really see this 315 00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:47,600 Speaker 1: for what it is, and that is this is going 316 00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:53,800 Speaker 1: to be a russ Belt election. Pennsylvania Ohio, although I'm 317 00:18:53,840 --> 00:18:56,560 Speaker 1: not worried about Ohio.

Then, of course, was con and Michigan, 319 00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:05,720 Speaker 1: and now, shockingly to everybody else, Minnesota seems to be 320 00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:09,280 Speaker 1: one of those states that nobody expected to be in play, 321 00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:11,639 Speaker 1: that is in play. It looks like New Jersey is 322 00:19:11,680 --> 00:19:15,000 Speaker 1: in play. It looks like Virginia is in play. It 323 00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:18,479 Speaker 1: looks like all of these states that otherwise may not 324 00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:22,760 Speaker 1: have been a player in play interest after the assassination 325 00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:26,439 Speaker 1: attempt this weekend. One thing that it has done is 326 00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:30,320 Speaker 1: it is quieted all of the talk about Joe Biden's 327 00:19:30,359 --> 00:19:34,080 Speaker 1: cognitive decline and removing Joe Biden from the ticket. Whether 328 00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:37,520 Speaker 1: that's a temporary reprieve or not, I don't know. It 329 00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:40,680 Speaker 1: was an article out today how Nancy Pelosi thinks that 330 00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:44,399 Speaker 1: Biden will lose. She's saying it privately to people, and 331 00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:48,240 Speaker 1: apparently he's also working the phones to replace him. We 332 00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:50,440 Speaker 1: have reports on that, and we'll get to that as well. 333 00:19:51,119 --> 00:19:53,280 Speaker 1: Now I'm going to tell you about my experience with 334 00:19:53,560 --> 00:19:56,200 Speaker 1: j D and he's going to be on Hannity tonight 335 00:19:56,320 --> 00:20:00,560 Speaker 1: nine Eastern on Fox.

And I didn't 337 00:20:07,359 --> 00:20:10,560 Speaker 1: know a lot about Jdvans. You know, I was the 338 00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:13,000 Speaker 1: race that he ran. We had him on before the race. 339 00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:15,879 Speaker 1: We've had him on a number of times. And I 340 00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:20,480 Speaker 1: had him on after the after the debate in Atlanta, 341 00:20:20,840 --> 00:20:23,520 Speaker 1: and he was there and I had time to speak 342 00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:25,560 Speaker 1: with him both on air and off the air, and 343 00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:28,560 Speaker 1: I've had a couple of private conversations with him because 344 00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:31,879 Speaker 1: his name has been out there as a potential VP pick, 345 00:20:32,720 --> 00:20:35,960 Speaker 1: and I just didn't know as much about him. And 346 00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:40,840 Speaker 1: he is what a two year senator and so unlike 347 00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:45,800 Speaker 1: many Americans, I'd never read Hillbilly Energy. My ability to 348 00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:50,679 Speaker 1: find the time to read books at my leisure just 349 00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:54,280 Speaker 1: does not exist in the real world for me. On 350 00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:57,560 Speaker 1: a daily basis, I probably read the equivalent of a 351 00:20:57,600 --> 00:21:00,960 Speaker 1: book at least a day. I mean, if you saw 352 00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:03,840 Speaker 1: the pile that I get every single day handed to 353 00:21:03,880 --> 00:21:06,320 Speaker 1: me by sweet baby James. By the way, we are 354 00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:11,720 Speaker 1: in well, in Linda's words, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, We're not in Milwaukee. 355 00:21:12,920 --> 00:21:17,760 Speaker 2: We are in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. A big difference. Milwaukee, Wisconsin. 356 00:21:18,119 --> 00:21:25,880 Speaker 2: That is exactly what I say. Image homage homage, don't 357 00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:28,080 Speaker 2: look at your cheerleading squad look for support. 358 00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:30,680 Speaker 1: I'm looking at my cheerleading squad for support, and sense 359 00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:32,320 Speaker 1: is here to kick your ass if you get out 360 00:21:32,359 --> 00:21:34,960 Speaker 1: of line. I'm just for the record in the studio, 361 00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:37,680 Speaker 1: today's got extra support. I got a lot of extra support. 362 00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:41,320 Speaker 1: And uh, somebody who we never see now that he 363 00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:45,399 Speaker 1: has two young children, Kristen is actually back with us. 364 00:21:45,520 --> 00:21:47,720 Speaker 2: It's great to have her. And of course I have 365 00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:50,560 Speaker 2: to say, I'm very excited to see You're excited to 366 00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:53,199 Speaker 2: see everybody but me. I walk in and all I 367 00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:56,359 Speaker 2: hear is you whining bitching money to get my violin 368 00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:58,879 Speaker 2: out now? Or should we save that for tomorrow? Boss? 369 00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:00,960 Speaker 2: It took me two in the half hours to get 370 00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:03,280 Speaker 2: You know, there's a bunch of winey stuff like liberals 371 00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:04,720 Speaker 2: on the bridge. We could put you up there. 372 00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:05,159 Speaker 3: You fit in. 373 00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:08,080 Speaker 2: Just I know we do have the lunatics here. Back 374 00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:10,200 Speaker 2: to JD. Evans for just a second. So I didn't 375 00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:11,080 Speaker 2: really know him. 376 00:22:11,160 --> 00:22:15,080 Speaker 1: I hadn't read the book, and he became a prominent name. 377 00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:20,359 Speaker 1: He was being mentioned often, and so I started to 378 00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:22,680 Speaker 1: do what I'm supposed to do, which is my job, 379 00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:26,280 Speaker 1: and know everything about every candidate. I knew Marco Rubio well, 380 00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:29,520 Speaker 1: I didn't know Doug Bergham as well, although I know 381 00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:32,159 Speaker 1: more about Doug Bergham than I thought I'd ever known 382 00:22:32,200 --> 00:22:35,520 Speaker 1: in my life. No offense to Doug Berghm. I thought 383 00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:37,520 Speaker 1: one of the things that might be an obstacle for 384 00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:41,840 Speaker 1: him was the issue of abortion, because North Dakota post 385 00:22:41,920 --> 00:22:45,600 Speaker 1: Roe V. Wade adopted one of the more strict abortion 386 00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:50,119 Speaker 1: laws in the country. So when I saw j D 387 00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:54,959 Speaker 1: in Atlanta, I had in the weeks before, weeks prior, 388 00:22:56,040 --> 00:23:01,320 Speaker 1: just trying to understand him better. I watched the movie, 389 00:23:02,320 --> 00:23:08,000 Speaker 1: and the movie is Hillbilly elo j And what I 390 00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:13,040 Speaker 1: discovered was something that absolutely positively amazed me, and that 391 00:23:13,359 --> 00:23:17,520 Speaker 1: was this man's life, background and story just blew me away. 392 00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:23,959 Speaker 1: He grew up an incredible poverty, incredible poverty in a 393 00:23:24,040 --> 00:23:30,080 Speaker 1: home that was beyond dysfunctional. He grew up his father 394 00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:34,399 Speaker 1: was in jail, his mother was a raging alcoholic, and 395 00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:37,040 Speaker 1: which is a lot of what Hillbillyology is about. It's 396 00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:41,000 Speaker 1: a memoir, memoir of a family and culture and crisis, 397 00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:43,720 Speaker 1: and it talks about his experience. 398 00:23:43,800 --> 00:23:45,800 Speaker 2: Is one of the first questions I asked him. I said, 399 00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:48,040 Speaker 2: is that movie accurate? 400 00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:52,000 Speaker 1: He goes, yeah, about at least ninety five plus percent 401 00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:54,719 Speaker 1: is pretty accurate. They didn't take a lot of a 402 00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:59,000 Speaker 1: lot of editorial license in it at all, and maybe 403 00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:04,600 Speaker 1: this is why it became such the big, the big 404 00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:08,439 Speaker 1: best seller that it was. He's born in a small 405 00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:13,560 Speaker 1: Roust belt city, southwestern Ohio. His parents come from Scott's 406 00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:17,760 Speaker 1: Irish ancestry, which right away, of course puts them right 407 00:24:17,800 --> 00:24:21,000 Speaker 1: at the top of the list. But he has an 408 00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:26,240 Speaker 1: elder half sister to whom his mom gave birth a 409 00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:29,720 Speaker 1: few weeks after graduating from high school. This is the 410 00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:33,800 Speaker 1: environment that he grew up in. When James was a 411 00:24:33,840 --> 00:24:36,920 Speaker 1: young child, as they called him, his parents divorced. His 412 00:24:37,080 --> 00:24:41,200 Speaker 1: mother later changed his name to David, and he eventually 413 00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:44,800 Speaker 1: took his mother's maiden name Vance as his surname. His 414 00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:48,160 Speaker 1: mother struggled for years with drug and alcohol use disorders. 415 00:24:48,520 --> 00:24:51,920 Speaker 1: To see it in the movie, it is extraordinarily heartbreaking. 416 00:24:52,600 --> 00:24:56,280 Speaker 1: He was raised mostly by his maternal grandparents, who had 417 00:24:56,400 --> 00:25:01,359 Speaker 1: relocated to Middletown and an Appalachian redi of eastern Kentucky. 418 00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:05,520 Speaker 1: His family was one of numerous families in Middletown with 419 00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:10,320 Speaker 1: Appalachian roots, and he graduates high school. He enlists in 420 00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:13,960 Speaker 1: the Marine Corps. During his service, he was deployed to Iraq. 421 00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:18,040 Speaker 1: He served during the Iraq War. He goes to Ohio 422 00:25:18,080 --> 00:25:21,719 Speaker 1: State afterwards, he gets a bachelor's degree in political science 423 00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:25,840 Speaker 1: and philosophy. Then he gets into Yale Law School, got 424 00:25:25,880 --> 00:25:29,480 Speaker 1: a law degree, worked for a multi national law firm 425 00:25:30,080 --> 00:25:36,119 Speaker 1: and for an investment firm in California and elsewhere. And 426 00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:41,240 Speaker 1: it's just an inspiring story. And he tells how two 427 00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:45,480 Speaker 1: generations my grandparents were dirt poor, and he said, and 428 00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:48,920 Speaker 1: in love, and they got married and they moved north 429 00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:52,560 Speaker 1: in the hope of escaping the dreadful poverty around them. 430 00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:57,399 Speaker 1: And my grandmother, he points out, had eight miscarriages in 431 00:25:57,440 --> 00:26:00,879 Speaker 1: the decade. He calls it between Uncle Jimmy's birth and 432 00:26:00,960 --> 00:26:04,600 Speaker 1: my mother's. And the baby who brought my grandparents to 433 00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:08,679 Speaker 1: Ohio didn't survive her first week. On that birth certificate, 434 00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:12,320 Speaker 1: the baby's broken hearted mother lied about her age, only 435 00:26:12,440 --> 00:26:16,080 Speaker 1: fourteen at the time, and with a seventeen year old husband, 436 00:26:16,119 --> 00:26:19,080 Speaker 1: she couldn't tell the truth. This is the life he 437 00:26:19,119 --> 00:26:22,000 Speaker 1: grew up in. This is what this is. He talks 438 00:26:22,040 --> 00:26:26,440 Speaker 1: about his values intense sents of loyalty and fierce dedication 439 00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:31,119 Speaker 1: to family and to country. But the stories about his families, 440 00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:36,399 Speaker 1: you know, he say he's proud of it. And I remember, 441 00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:39,680 Speaker 1: like years ago, and I've told my story. When I 442 00:26:39,720 --> 00:26:42,879 Speaker 1: went to college, I was a Dean's List student. I 443 00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:47,120 Speaker 1: paid my own way. I paid every penny for college. 444 00:26:46,920 --> 00:26:51,520 Speaker 1: My parents grew up poor. They didn't have the money. 445 00:26:51,080 --> 00:26:54,080 Speaker 1: They worked two jobs, my mom in the prison guard, 446 00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:56,880 Speaker 1: my dad to family court probation officer, and a waiter 447 00:26:56,960 --> 00:27:00,359 Speaker 1: on weekends to send all of their children to Catholics. 448 00:27:00,680 --> 00:27:02,840 Speaker 1: And I was not going to take the little money 449 00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:05,080 Speaker 1: that they might have that I didn't think they had 450 00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:07,840 Speaker 1: at all, especially because I worked since I was eight 451 00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:10,280 Speaker 1: as a paper boy wash dishes at twelve. I've told 452 00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:12,480 Speaker 1: my story a million times. You're probably sick of hearing it. 453 00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:15,240 Speaker 1: I don't blame you if you are, but it did 454 00:27:15,280 --> 00:27:18,439 Speaker 1: instill in me two values that stay with me to 455 00:27:18,440 --> 00:27:22,000 Speaker 1: this day. A work ethic second to none. I know 456 00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:24,200 Speaker 1: I'm not the most talented guy on radio and TV, 457 00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:27,600 Speaker 1: but I am the hardest working and I don't stop, 458 00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:30,560 Speaker 1: and the people around me can attest to that. I 459 00:27:30,600 --> 00:27:34,720 Speaker 1: am a lunatic Linda, what hours of the day or 460 00:27:34,840 --> 00:27:37,160 Speaker 1: night and what days of the week do you get 461 00:27:37,240 --> 00:27:40,400 Speaker 1: texts from me? Stories? Ideas for me? You know, how 462 00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:42,720 Speaker 1: often is it you could talk? 463 00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:44,879 Speaker 2: You know, I didn't want to interrupt. You were working, 464 00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:46,560 Speaker 2: and why you know, why break up your flow? But 465 00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:49,040 Speaker 2: all kidding aside, Yeah, you work all the time. That's 466 00:27:49,040 --> 00:27:51,280 Speaker 2: what I do, yep. And I'm dedicated to it. 467 00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:54,560 Speaker 1: And I feel I have had an undeserved life, especially 468 00:27:54,600 --> 00:27:55,840 Speaker 1: when I compare it to my parents. 469 00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:56,880 Speaker 2: So I look at this. 470 00:27:57,560 --> 00:27:59,600 Speaker 1: You know, he talks about his mom being a promising 471 00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:02,520 Speaker 1: student jd Vance does, but when she got pregnant at eighteen, 472 00:28:02,640 --> 00:28:05,800 Speaker 1: she decided college had to wait. And I remember years ago, 473 00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:09,439 Speaker 1: I used to you know, Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, college 474 00:28:09,520 --> 00:28:12,760 Speaker 1: dropouts used to bother me a little bit. I wouldn't 475 00:28:12,800 --> 00:28:16,080 Speaker 1: have admitted it at the time, But now, not only 476 00:28:16,119 --> 00:28:19,840 Speaker 1: does it not bother me, I'm proud of it because 477 00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:24,480 Speaker 1: it defines me. That work ethic defined me, that independence 478 00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:29,080 Speaker 1: defines me. My parents not being around every day to 479 00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:32,760 Speaker 1: guide me because they were working to survive and make 480 00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:36,320 Speaker 1: a better life for their children, that defines me too, 481 00:28:37,320 --> 00:28:40,480 Speaker 1: And so I'm proud of that, and I was a 482 00:28:40,520 --> 00:28:43,480 Speaker 1: bit of a street fighter and a little bit incorrigible, 483 00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:45,920 Speaker 1: since it was way worse than I was by a 484 00:28:45,960 --> 00:28:48,800 Speaker 1: long shot. If we can only tell his stories on 485 00:28:48,840 --> 00:28:51,800 Speaker 1: the air, that in and of itself as a hillbilly 486 00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:58,400 Speaker 1: elergy book. And this is what made jd vance. Now 487 00:28:58,560 --> 00:29:01,800 Speaker 1: he's going to be attacked. You know, he didn't support 488 00:29:01,800 --> 00:29:05,880 Speaker 1: Donald Trump in the early days. He made horrible comments 489 00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:09,719 Speaker 1: about Donald Trump. Donald Trump knows all about them and 490 00:29:09,760 --> 00:29:14,680 Speaker 1: made the decision. Anyway, He had his own personal views 491 00:29:14,720 --> 00:29:17,080 Speaker 1: on abortion. I'm sure that will come up as a 492 00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:20,000 Speaker 1: big issue. They tried to make it the biggest issue 493 00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:22,960 Speaker 1: in his Senate raise in Ohio and it didn't stick. 494 00:29:23,320 --> 00:29:24,920 Speaker 1: And there was an exchange with him, and I think 495 00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:26,680 Speaker 1: it was Tim Ryan at the time he was running 496 00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:31,960 Speaker 1: against and when they tried to attack him, even PolitiFact, 497 00:29:32,120 --> 00:29:35,760 Speaker 1: which pretty much hates any and all conservatives, even they 498 00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:39,000 Speaker 1: had to admit that, know what Tim Ryan was saying 499 00:29:39,120 --> 00:29:44,680 Speaker 1: was not particularly accurate and anyway, so that is what 500 00:29:44,880 --> 00:29:48,080 Speaker 1: defined him. How do you grow up in that level 501 00:29:48,120 --> 00:29:52,400 Speaker 1: of poverty and that level of dysfunction and then make 502 00:29:52,480 --> 00:29:56,600 Speaker 1: it not into the Marine Corps was his rescue and 503 00:29:56,640 --> 00:29:59,800 Speaker 1: then a survival mission in Iraq. If you were in Iraq, 504 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:04,520 Speaker 1: it was about survival and then make it to Yale 505 00:30:04,640 --> 00:30:08,800 Speaker 1: Law School. Now, at the time, I probably looked at 506 00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:11,400 Speaker 1: Ivy League schools a lot differently than I do now, 507 00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:14,040 Speaker 1: Like so many other parents. I know, parents that thought 508 00:30:14,120 --> 00:30:15,840 Speaker 1: that their dream was to send their kids to an 509 00:30:15,840 --> 00:30:19,840 Speaker 1: Ivy League school. They're all looking south now, They're looking 510 00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:24,440 Speaker 1: at UVA, They're looking at UNC, They're looking at at 511 00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:28,440 Speaker 1: Vanderbilt and Wake Forest and all these other great institutions 512 00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:32,320 Speaker 1: that are available because the values are different. Although probably 513 00:30:32,360 --> 00:30:36,480 Speaker 1: all these schools to some extent are woke, the media 514 00:30:36,520 --> 00:30:40,360 Speaker 1: is going to do what they always do regardless whoever 515 00:30:40,560 --> 00:30:43,880 Speaker 1: was chosen today, that was going to happen, and that 516 00:30:44,040 --> 00:30:48,320 Speaker 1: will happen. JD Vance's Challenge, and we will have them 517 00:30:48,320 --> 00:30:54,880 Speaker 1: on Hannity tonight. JD Vance's Challenge. And I obviously this 518 00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:58,760 Speaker 1: is a man of great intelligence and street smarts and 519 00:30:59,160 --> 00:31:03,240 Speaker 1: life experience, and I think probably that combination is what 520 00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:06,320 Speaker 1: appealed to Donald Trump. If I had to guess, I 521 00:31:06,480 --> 00:31:09,880 Speaker 1: was asked by many, many people, because I have a 522 00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:14,360 Speaker 1: lot of sources inside and outside of Trump world, who 523 00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:17,120 Speaker 1: do you think, who do you choose? I said, I'm 524 00:31:17,160 --> 00:31:20,120 Speaker 1: not going to tell you. I refuse to give an answer. 525 00:31:20,840 --> 00:31:23,080 Speaker 1: And some of you have been calling and asking who's 526 00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:27,160 Speaker 1: my top choice? And the reason is I didn't do 527 00:31:27,400 --> 00:31:30,239 Speaker 1: the vetting of any of these candidates. Vetting matters when 528 00:31:30,280 --> 00:31:32,400 Speaker 1: you're picking a vice president, because they're going to dig 529 00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:34,840 Speaker 1: up who did you date in the fifth grade and 530 00:31:34,880 --> 00:31:36,960 Speaker 1: did you kiss her? And did she feel that kiss 531 00:31:37,040 --> 00:31:40,240 Speaker 1: was too aggressive? I mean, that's the environment in which 532 00:31:40,240 --> 00:31:43,000 Speaker 1: we live in. And you know, did you smoke marijuana 533 00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:44,920 Speaker 1: on any occasion at any point in your life? 534 00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:46,800 Speaker 2: I mean, here we go, it's all going to start. 535 00:31:47,880 --> 00:31:52,480 Speaker 1: But if JD can transcend that and tell this story 536 00:31:52,800 --> 00:31:57,800 Speaker 1: that led him out of Appalachia into the Marine Corps, 537 00:31:58,080 --> 00:32:02,240 Speaker 1: to Yell Law School, to the United States Senate, now 538 00:32:02,280 --> 00:32:07,120 Speaker 1: to being chosen as the vice presidential candidate of Donald J. 539 00:32:07,280 --> 00:32:07,640 Speaker 2: Trump. 540 00:32:08,480 --> 00:32:11,920 Speaker 1: The mob that lies to us so often about immigration 541 00:32:12,120 --> 00:32:15,239 Speaker 1: and the economy and about cheap bakes, and lies to 542 00:32:15,320 --> 00:32:20,640 Speaker 1: us about Joe's cognitive state, they won't be effective no matter. 543 00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:21,520 Speaker 2: All the smears. 544 00:32:21,600 --> 00:32:26,280 Speaker 1: The Slanders forget about Joe Biden lecturing about lowering the temperature. 545 00:32:26,600 --> 00:32:28,200 Speaker 2: The temperature is about to go high.
