Speaker 1: Welcome in his verdict with Ted Cruz, Ben Ferguson with you,
Speaker 1: and is the week in Review in Mayo, Maida. We
Speaker 1: have some big stories that we talked about this week,
Speaker 1: just three days now away from election day. First up,
Speaker 1: the campaign Donald Trump is running now in twenty twenty
Speaker 1: four very different than in twenty sixteen. So could this
Speaker 1: be the difference for him to be able to win
Speaker 1: this time compared to twenty twenty We break that down. Also,
Speaker 1: the Hispanic community seems to be turning away from the
Speaker 1: Democratic Party and moving towards Donald Trump over the border issue.
Speaker 1: How big of an issue will that be on election day?
Speaker 1: We'll dive into that. And finally, many Americans are concerned
Speaker 1: about illegal votes. Well, guess what, they have real reason
Speaker 1: to be concerned about it, as a Chinese immigrant voted
Speaker 1: in Michigan and they caught him voting illegally. The problem
Speaker 1: is they're still saying his ballot will count. It's the
Speaker 1: weekend review and it starts right now.
Speaker 2: You know. It's also I.
Speaker 1: Think very interesting to see how Donald Trump is putting
Speaker 1: together this campaign. It's a little bit different than he
Speaker 1: did in sixteen certainly, and that is he understands how
Speaker 1: important it is to have a team around him, whether
Speaker 1: it's border patrol agents. But he also had some things
Speaker 1: to say about you. You were obviously there with him,
Speaker 1: and I want people to let them hear what he
Speaker 1: said about you and how he understands. Now, this is
Speaker 1: so important that we have a team together that can
Speaker 1: actually implement some of these ideas in Washington, because if
Speaker 1: you don't have team members, if you don't win the Senate,
Speaker 1: if you don't win the House, you're not going to
Speaker 1: get as much done as you want to.
Speaker 2: And I think he understands this time.
Speaker 1: He needs a very tight team that can take these
Speaker 1: things that he's talking about on the road and put
Speaker 1: them into action in Congress. Take a listen Donald Trump
Speaker 1: talking about you.
Speaker 2: Senator.
Speaker 3: I want to thank some of the special guests we have,
Speaker 3: Senator Ted Cruz for being here.
Speaker 4: Senator talk.
Speaker 3: And it's hard to believe he's in a race because honestly,
Speaker 3: I don't know who would want to run against him,
Speaker 3: because he's really a great senator.
Speaker 4: He's a great senator.
Speaker 3: He loves a country, he's tough as hell, he fights,
Speaker 3: he's always fighting, and you know, and he's fighting for
Speaker 3: the state. But he's fighting more for the country than
Speaker 3: just about anybody. And John Barassa would acknowledge that. John
Speaker 3: is one of our leaders in the Senate and he's
Speaker 3: a fantasticant. So Ted, I know your thing is going good.
Speaker 3: I heard you helped you very greatly. You got a
Speaker 3: big pop, right, and I know you're doing great. But
Speaker 3: I just want to say he's got my complete and
Speaker 3: total endorsement.
Speaker 4: He has always, always will have.
Speaker 3: And You're going to have a great day, and hopefully
Speaker 3: I'm going to have a great day, and we're going
Speaker 3: to be celebrating together, and we're going to make our
Speaker 3: country as we say or we'll make America great. We're
Speaker 3: going to make it great. And it's going to go
Speaker 3: faster than you think. But it can't sustain this for
Speaker 3: another four years.
Speaker 4: That I do believe, you know.
Speaker 1: It's his mindset is just so different this time. It's
Speaker 1: like I got to get a group of warriors that
Speaker 1: are going to come together and fight for this country.
Speaker 1: And I love the way he talks about people just
Speaker 1: like you, where he's like, look, we got to get
Speaker 1: this done together as a team.
Speaker 5: Yeah, Look, we got a lot of work to do.
Speaker 5: And when Trump was president the first time, I was
Speaker 5: by far his strongest ally in the Senate, and when
Speaker 5: he's reelected, I'll again be by far his strongest ally
Speaker 5: in the Senate. And the job we have to do.
Speaker 5: I look back over these last four years, I've never
Speaker 5: seen so much damage done to our country in such
Speaker 5: a short period of time. And so we've got a
Speaker 5: massive amount of work to do to secure the border,
Speaker 5: which we're going to do, and we're going to do
Speaker 5: it early next year. It's not going to take a year.
Speaker 5: It's not even going to take six months. We're going
Speaker 5: to secure the border in January and February of next year.
Speaker 6: And it is going to be.
Speaker 5: Simply reversing the policy, ending catch and release, Ian stating
Speaker 5: remain in Mexico, and once people discover that if you come,
Speaker 5: you don't get to stay, you get set home, the
Speaker 5: numbers will plummet immediately. We're also going to extend the
Speaker 5: tax cuts. We're gonna We're gonna, you know, the Wall
Speaker 5: Street Journal calls this election the six trillion dollar election,
Speaker 5: because that's how much your taxes go up if Kamala
Speaker 5: Harrison the Democrats win, or how much they go down
Speaker 5: and stay down if the Republicans win. We're going to
Speaker 5: end the regulatory assault on small businesses. We're gonna end
Speaker 5: the regulatory assault on oil and gas and jobs in Texas.
Speaker 5: And we're gonna end the wars. We're gonna see both
Speaker 5: of the wars abroad come to an end. In Israel's
Speaker 5: going to defeat Hamas. There's a lot of upside and
Speaker 5: and and so that was very kind of Trump what
Speaker 5: he said at the rally. And he's focused on the
Speaker 5: job at hand, what we got to do. And and
Speaker 5: by the way, the contrast, the contrast is really striking.
Speaker 5: Listen to Kama, Listen to Trump talking about what Kamala
Speaker 5: was doing the very same day here in Texas.
Speaker 3: But today Kamala is here in Texas to rubbed shoulders
Speaker 3: with woke celebrities.
Speaker 4: Isn't that exciting?
Speaker 3: But she's not going to meet with any of the
Speaker 3: victims of migrant crime while she's here.
Speaker 4: We have many of them right here, the families with
Speaker 4: many of them, and they're incredible people.
Speaker 3: What they've gone through, the hell that they've gone through
Speaker 3: and will continue to go through. Unfortunately, she'll not speak
Speaker 3: to the grieving mothers from whom she has stolen the
Speaker 3: brightest light in their lives. She was in charge of
Speaker 3: this border and she doesn't like being called borders already,
Speaker 3: where she didn't mind it almost four years.
Speaker 4: Ago, but now she doesn't like it. But you don't
Speaker 4: need that term. She was in charge of the border.
Speaker 3: She never came here, and she never made one call
Speaker 3: to these people behind me or anybody in the group.
Speaker 4: Not one call. She's in charge, she deals with border patrol.
Speaker 3: She hasn't made Paul, not even not one call in
Speaker 3: four years.
Speaker 2: Not one call in four years. Wow.
Speaker 5: Yeah, look, it's a striking contrast. And then we saw
Speaker 5: shortly after Trump's rally, we saw Kamala come to Houston
Speaker 5: and it was it was a rally. It was in
Speaker 5: the Shell Energy Stadium, and you know it was designed
Speaker 5: to get lots of headlines, which the corporate media, like
Speaker 5: Bleeding Sheep, completely gave of huge crowd comes out to
Speaker 5: see Kamala Harris. Now, of course they told everyone it
Speaker 5: was a Beyonce concert. And Beyonce is by any measure,
Speaker 5: one of the five biggest musical stars on the face
Speaker 5: of the planet. And so you know, it was interesting
Speaker 5: to see all of the media gushing, oh thirty thousand
Speaker 5: people came out to see Kamala Harris. What they really
Speaker 5: should have written is smallest concert in a decade for Beyonce,
Speaker 5: because I don't think Beyonce's performed to anything as small
Speaker 5: as thirty thousand, and particularly when it was free. They
Speaker 5: weren't charging you. Free Beyonce concert brings only thirty thousand people.
Speaker 5: I mean, that would be a headline. But I got
Speaker 5: to say, it really was striking that they had to
Speaker 5: tell people they were coming to a free concert and
Speaker 5: then they got there and they didn't even have her
Speaker 5: sing God Bless America. I mean they they like, she
Speaker 5: didn't even hum good morning, like like it was.
Speaker 1: It was striking, the ultimate bait and switch as we
Speaker 1: call it.
Speaker 6: It really was.
Speaker 5: And and listen, I think it's because they were afraid
Speaker 5: if they just said a Kamala concert that that people
Speaker 5: wouldn't show up, and so they had to have a
Speaker 5: reason to get people to come there, and it was
Speaker 5: not to see Kamala Harris. And I got to say, listen,
Speaker 5: I didn't watch the Kamala rally. I have a limit
Speaker 5: to to masochism and how much how much just prattling
Speaker 5: on I can endure. So I don't really know what
Speaker 5: they said, because I like, I think I went out
Speaker 5: and had to water my lawn instead. I just I
Speaker 5: know there was something else I had to do. But
Speaker 5: I did see because it's where I see an awful
Speaker 5: lot of things in life. I did see on x
Speaker 5: a truly horrific snippet outside of this woman who's a
Speaker 5: Kamala Harris supporter, this young woman in her twenties who
Speaker 5: comes up to this toddler maybe two three years old,
Speaker 5: this little girl in a stroller and begins screaming at
Speaker 5: the top of her lungs and cursing at this little baby.
Speaker 5: And it was I've never seen anything like this. I mean, Ben,
Speaker 5: have you ever seen and this is not her child?
Speaker 1: Yeah, and this was it went It went viral for
Speaker 1: a reason because it was just so disgusting. It was
Speaker 1: a shocking, shocking moment, like what are you doing and
Speaker 1: the fact that she knew people were recording it and
Speaker 1: didn't care.
Speaker 5: And by the way, there was another Kamala Harris supporter
Speaker 5: next to her who actually intervened, had got in her
Speaker 5: face and like you can't quite tell what she's saying,
Speaker 5: but she's basically like, what the hell are you doing
Speaker 5: You don't do this, lady, like, kudos to the woman
Speaker 5: who intervened and stopped her. And the dad reaches over
Speaker 5: and grabs his little girl and her up. But I
Speaker 5: gotta say, and I don't know, I don't know this
Speaker 5: woman's story. She's she's in her twenties. And and you know,
Speaker 5: I just never said that.
Speaker 6: Listen.
Speaker 5: I was forced to retweet it and just say, this
Speaker 5: is deranged because I have never in my life seen
Speaker 5: anyone do this to a little child, A two three
Speaker 5: year old little girl doesn't know what's going on. Just
Speaker 5: this this crazy stranger. And we're not talking just to
Speaker 5: one little comment. We're talking screaming at the top of
Speaker 5: her lungs at a child in a stroller. And and
Speaker 5: and listen, I think a lot of people online observed
Speaker 5: what was my reaction, which which is there's a level
Speaker 5: of hate, a level of radicalism that Biden and Harris
Speaker 5: and and and the modern Democrats have inculcated in their
Speaker 5: followers that that they've convinced them, number one, that Donald
Speaker 5: Trump is hitler. That literally as their closing message, that
Speaker 5: he's hitler. And they've also convinced them that anyone who
Speaker 5: supports Trump is evil, is a Nazi as a clansman,
Speaker 5: and apparently that extends to a two year old and
Speaker 5: a stroller, And and look, I was horrified watching it,
Speaker 5: But I was also just sad watching it. Sad for
Speaker 5: a country that that that. How have we convinced? Look this,
Speaker 5: I'm sure this young woman who screamed at this child,
Speaker 5: I'm sure the whole world is pounded down upon her
Speaker 5: in the days since then, and it has gone so viral.
Speaker 5: Look when you scream at a child, bad things happened
Speaker 5: to you.
Speaker 6: But but.
Speaker 5: I just viewed it as a really sad sign of
Speaker 5: just how much hatred has infused. And look, there are
Speaker 5: people on the right that feel that hatred as well,
Speaker 5: but I got to tell you the intensity of it.
Speaker 5: I haven't heard to anyone on the right say kamalas Hitler.
Speaker 5: It's only one side that is invoking the Hitler analogies
Speaker 5: that and you know that kind of a closing.
Speaker 2: Argument, This is it.
Speaker 1: This is their last thing they want you to say is, hey,
Speaker 1: if you vote for him, you are a Nazi and
Speaker 1: he is Hitler. And that is the closing argument for
Speaker 1: the American people. I just don't see how that plays
Speaker 1: well on election day.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and it just if you're screaming at babies, you've
Speaker 5: really kind of lost lost your footing and lost your
Speaker 5: grounding and lost you know, what it is to be
Speaker 5: a reasonable, compassionate, loving human being.
Speaker 1: Now, if you want to hear the rest of this conversation,
Speaker 1: you can go back and listen to the full podcast
Speaker 1: from earlier this week. Now onto story number two. Let
Speaker 1: me also ask you about the Hispanic community as well,
Speaker 1: because the Hispanic community really seems to be talking a
Speaker 1: lot about the issue of the border, and the border
Speaker 1: issue is one where many in the Hispanic community have
Speaker 1: been affected by the border. They've been affected by the fetanol,
Speaker 1: They've been affected by the gang violence, they've been affected
Speaker 1: by the sex trafficking, they've been affected by the violent
Speaker 1: criminals have come across that were let go by this administration,
Speaker 1: including those who were convicted murderers and convicted rapists. And
Speaker 1: you're seeing now these stories that are also really connecting
Speaker 1: with the Hispanic community, watching and witnessing what has happened
Speaker 1: within this Hispanic community, which is a very tight knit
Speaker 1: community historically in this country. And they are also breaking
Speaker 1: away from the Democratic Party as well.
Speaker 6: Yeah, and in very large numbers.
Speaker 5: I'll tell you, in Texas and across the country, we're
Speaker 5: seeing Hispanic voters moving right in very significant numbers, and
Speaker 5: there are lots of reasons for it.
Speaker 6: One of the reasons for it is economically.
Speaker 5: The Hispanic community has been savaged by inflation and the
Speaker 5: economic challenges that is hitting Americans across the board.
Speaker 6: Listen, I can tell you in Texas.
Speaker 5: If you're an Hispanic guy in South Texas and you
Speaker 5: work in the oil fields and you drive a pickup
Speaker 5: truck and you go bird hunting on the weekends, you're
Speaker 5: voting for Donald Trump because Kamala Harris is doing everything
Speaker 5: she can to destroy your livelihood. And then you put
Speaker 5: on top of that the chaos at our southern border
Speaker 5: and the influx of crime and releasing violent murderers and
Speaker 5: Venezuelan gang members. I'll tell you many of the victims
Speaker 5: of this, these crimes are themselves Hispanic. Many of the
Speaker 5: illegal immigrants are going to heavily Hispanic neighborhoods where where
Speaker 5: the victims are Hispanic themselves, and the Democrats have no answers.
Speaker 5: And so I think we're seeing the Hispanic community moving right.
Speaker 6: And I will say the contrast.
Speaker 5: So in the closing week, Joe Biden has decided his
Speaker 5: argument is, if you're voting for Donald Trump, your garbage.
Speaker 5: In the closing week, Donald Trump actually just today put
Speaker 5: out an incredibly powerful new ad, and we talked about
Speaker 5: how on Friday I was with President Trump in Texas
Speaker 5: and we were there with families of those who lost
Speaker 5: loved ones to violent, criminal, illegal aliens, including Alexis Nungary,
Speaker 5: the mom of Joscelyn Hungary. And as I mentioned, I've
Speaker 5: gotten to know Alexis very well. She's an incredible young woman.
Speaker 5: She's just twenty seven years old, and she's dealing with
Speaker 5: the worst grief imaginable, and she's taken that pain which
Speaker 5: easily could just crush you. You could just just curl up
Speaker 5: at a ball and be unable to do anything. And
Speaker 5: instead she's taken all of that pain and she's channeled
Speaker 5: it into being a voice for Joscelyn, speaking out for Joscelyn.
Speaker 5: And look, Alexis has told me listen, she knows she
Speaker 5: can't bring Joscelyn back, but if she can speak out
Speaker 5: and change the policies, maybe she can save another little girl.
Speaker 5: Maybe she can save another mom from enduring the grief
Speaker 5: and sorrow and misery of losing your child. And so
Speaker 5: I want you, I want you to listen to this
Speaker 5: ad And it's just an extended interview with Alexis the
Speaker 5: Trump campaign just put out because it really does sum
Speaker 5: up the human cost of Kamala Harris's open borders and
Speaker 5: the suffering.
Speaker 6: That is happening.
Speaker 7: Sunday night, I asked her to not stay up super
Speaker 7: late because of her coming to work with me in
Speaker 7: the morning first to do her summer school. She said okay,
Speaker 7: and I told her good night and I love you.
Speaker 7: I went to bed, not realizing that that was going
Speaker 7: to be the last time I saw her.
Speaker 6: We're best friend, were thinking again.
Speaker 7: I woke up to notice she wasn't in her bread.
Speaker 7: I'm in my heart trying not to lose my mind
Speaker 7: because I don't know where she is. I finally remembered
Speaker 7: her phone had a location on and her phone was
Speaker 7: pinging just two minutes down the road, right behind the skatepark.
Speaker 7: I start driving to the direction of the phone was
Speaker 7: being pinged at, and I see a couple of cop
Speaker 7: cars with lights on. I see yellow tape and immediately
Speaker 7: my heart drops and sinks to the bottom of my stomach.
Speaker 7: My daughter's hands and ankles were both bound. She was
Speaker 7: strangled to death with left with no pants, and I
Speaker 7: know in my heart she fought incredibly hard. She was
Speaker 7: not going down without a fight.
Speaker 5: We begin with two men. We're learning our charge with
Speaker 5: capital murder Tonight accused of killing a twelve.
Speaker 2: Year old girl, strangled her before dumping her into that
Speaker 2: Both men were in the country illegally.
Speaker 1: Apprehended than released by border patrol less.
Speaker 2: Than three weeks before Jocelyn's dad.
Speaker 1: Man accused of killing Joscelyn Nungray are affiliated with the
Speaker 1: gang known for brutal violence.
Speaker 7: Kamala Harris was in charge of immigration in our borders.
Speaker 7: If we had better border policies and not open borders
Speaker 7: and not these catch and release policies. I truly believe
Speaker 7: this all could have been prevented under her being Vice
Speaker 7: president of this country. My daughter's life was ripped away
Speaker 7: from her. She had her entire life ahead of her.
Speaker 7: My daughter is six feet in the ground based off
Speaker 7: of policies that she allowed to keep. Kamala Harris did
Speaker 7: have one job and she not only failed, not me,
Speaker 7: she failed my daughter. She filled Joscelyn. You know she
Speaker 7: was only twelve. President Trump reached out gave me his
Speaker 7: sincereous condolences as not a former president, but just as
Speaker 7: a father, someone who cares. I believe Donald Trump needs
Speaker 7: to be back in office. I can at least know
Speaker 7: that my next child will be safe in this country.
Speaker 1: Senator, I've not seen a more powerful ad in my lifetime,
Speaker 1: and especially and we'll put it up on social media
Speaker 1: because you need to watch it. Because you see this
Speaker 1: mother telling your story and you see the pictures of
Speaker 1: her daughter. And if this is the closing argument for
Speaker 1: Donald Trump's campaign, it is the most powerful one I
Speaker 1: think he could have used.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 5: Look, I have sat in her living room. I've sat
Speaker 5: with a le Exus, Jocelyn's mom. I've sat with with Kelvin,
Speaker 5: Jocelyn's grandfather, as they've told me that they shared those
Speaker 5: same stories, just just one on one with me, and
Speaker 5: and and the agony. I every time I see her
Speaker 5: talk about Joscelyn, it just it. This is the very
Speaker 5: real cost. And I got to say, it's a very
Speaker 5: different message than than than Kamalin Joe Biden's closing argument.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 1: Finally, Senator Donald Trump Is is not just running a
Speaker 1: campaign and and doing the speeches. He is continuing to
Speaker 1: announce new policies for his administration. If you wins, and
Speaker 1: one of them I hit a nerve with a lot
Speaker 1: of Americans in a positive way today when he said
Speaker 1: this about the victims of the cartels.
Speaker 3: So today I'm announcing that, for the first time under
Speaker 3: my administration, we will she's using the assets of the
Speaker 3: criminal gangs and drug cartels, and we will use those
Speaker 3: assets to create a compensation fund.
Speaker 4: To provide restitution for the victims of migrant crime.
Speaker 3: And the government will help in the restoration. The government
Speaker 3: will help in the restitution.
Speaker 2: I mean, that's what Americans want. They want action.
Speaker 5: Yes, yes, that Look, that's exactly the right thing to do.
Speaker 5: And it's the reason why Jocelyn. Look, it's only been
Speaker 5: or why Alexis, it's only been a couple of months
Speaker 5: since since Jocelyn was killed. Can you imagine a mom
Speaker 5: standing up and speaking out like she is. It's the
Speaker 5: reason she's pouring herself into this is because there's a
Speaker 5: chance to change this. There's a chance to prevent the
Speaker 5: next victim, the next little girl, the next little boy,
Speaker 5: from being killed and Number one, President Trump is promising
Speaker 5: as he did before. Look when he was president last time,
Speaker 5: I worked hand in hand with him, and we had
Speaker 5: incredible success securing the border. We achieved the lowest rate
Speaker 5: of illegal immigration in forty five years. It's a very
Speaker 5: simple message. We did it before, We'll do it again.
Speaker 5: And I think expanding it as he's suggesting to say,
Speaker 5: we're going to seize the assets of these criminal gangs,
Speaker 5: of these drug cartails, and we're going to use the
Speaker 5: assets to compensate the victims and the victims' families. I
Speaker 5: think that is fair, that is right, that is just,
Speaker 5: and it is the difference between a leader who's actually
Speaker 5: trying to keep people safe and what Kamala Harris is doing,
Speaker 5: which is putting her own partisan political interest above the
Speaker 5: safety and well being of American families.
Speaker 1: As before, if you want to hear the rest of
Speaker 1: this conversation on this topic, you can go back and
Speaker 1: dow the podcast from earlier this week to hear the
Speaker 1: entire thing.
Speaker 2: I want to get back.
Speaker 1: To the big story number three of the week you
Speaker 1: may have missed. Let me ask you another question, and
Speaker 1: this is about people that are really concerned about the
Speaker 1: election coming up and we have now got a headline.
Speaker 1: And there's two parts of this headline that will drive
Speaker 1: you insane. Number one, a Chinese foreign exchange student has
Speaker 1: been charged with multiple crimes. That's good news for illegally
Speaker 1: voting in Michigan on Sunday. Now again the headline there,
Speaker 1: you would think to yourself, well, this is great news.
Speaker 1: We had a guy that was illegally voting, we caught him.
Speaker 1: It's not going to count. The problem is Michigan can't
Speaker 1: and won't disqualify an a legal vote cast by this
Speaker 1: Chinese national because quote it's already been put through a tabulator.
Speaker 2: So Michigan says, hey, it counts. So there is.
Speaker 1: Someone that's going to show up and vote in Michigan
Speaker 1: and their voter is going to be canceled out by
Speaker 1: a Chinese foreign exchange student that has been charged with
Speaker 1: multiple crimes for illegally vote voting. But it still gets
Speaker 1: canceled out. And yet Democrats are still sitting there saying
Speaker 1: it's racist. If you say you have to show an
Speaker 1: ID before you vote.
Speaker 5: Well, it's infuriating. And understand why this happened. This happened
Speaker 5: because the Democrats in Michigan.
Speaker 6: Passed a law.
Speaker 5: Their voter ID law allows people to show a current
Speaker 5: student photo ID card from an educational institution in order
Speaker 5: to vote. Now, the only problem is you don't have
Speaker 5: to be an American citizen to get a student ID.
Speaker 5: In this case, you had a Chinese national who was
Speaker 5: from China. He had a student ID. It could be
Speaker 5: a student that's allowed, but Chinese nationals are not allowed
Speaker 5: to vote in American elections. And yet this individual did so.
Speaker 5: He voted while it was illegal. Two charges against a
Speaker 5: nineteen year old student. He was not identified, but he
Speaker 5: is not a US citizen and he's being charged. And
Speaker 5: the reason that this is happening is because Democrats don't
Speaker 5: want you actually to have to prove you're a citizen.
Speaker 5: You know, there was legislation called the Save Act, the
Speaker 5: Save Act. They voted on it in the House of Representatives,
Speaker 5: and the Democrats on essentially a straight party line vote,
Speaker 5: Democrat after Democrat after Democrat voted no. The Save Act
Speaker 5: was very simple. It said you have to demonstrate, you
Speaker 5: have to prove you're a citizen in order to register
Speaker 5: to vote. It's common sense, and yet part of the
Speaker 5: one of the reasons the Democrats voted no Is. They claimed, Oh,
Speaker 5: this is not a problem, no non citizens vote. Well,
Speaker 5: tell that to the Chinese national who just voted in Michigan.
Speaker 5: And infuriatingly enough, the Michigan officials say, oh, and by
Speaker 5: the way, his vote's going to cast it's easy illegal.
Speaker 5: He can't vote legally, and yet we've already tabulated his vote.
Speaker 5: That's what the Michigan officials are saying. And I'll tell you,
Speaker 5: I'll bet you a large sum of money, ben that
Speaker 5: the candidate he voted for rhymes with Hamila Icarus. And
Speaker 5: yet magically that's going to be included in the vote
Speaker 5: to Ellis for Michigan, one of the key swing states.
Speaker 5: And that's sadly an outcome I think the Democrats want.
Speaker 1: Well, let's go back to the Save Act for a moment.
Speaker 1: And this I've heard and had more people come up
Speaker 1: to me, and I'm assuming you have as well. But
Speaker 1: I'm interested to see where people say, Man, I feel
Speaker 1: like we're gonna win this one.
Speaker 2: I feel like we're on good footing.
Speaker 1: I feel like moments this way, unless they cheat, unless
Speaker 1: they unless something happens where they cheat, you get a
Speaker 1: story like this, and you see that the person was
Speaker 1: caught voting illegally. Everybody knows the legal next. Sorry, it
Speaker 1: already went through the tabulator. We can't take it out now,
Speaker 1: so it's gonna count. This is why so many Americans,
Speaker 1: I think now have no confidence in our election system.
Speaker 1: And again, this goes back to what you guys try
Speaker 1: to do in Congress with a Save Act. Remind people
Speaker 1: of how simple that would have been for us to
Speaker 1: be able to protect the votes of American citizens.
Speaker 5: It was a simple requirement that you have to demonstrate
Speaker 5: American citizenship to register to vote. And that's basic common sense,
Speaker 5: which is why the Democrats as a party are against it.
Speaker 5: If they don't want non citizens to vote, why are
Speaker 5: they opposed to demonstrating you're a citizen before you register
Speaker 5: to vote. The answer is obvious. But look, here's the
Speaker 5: good news. The good news is historically voter fraud is
Speaker 5: only mattered at the margins. It's only mattered when it
Speaker 5: was close, which means in states across this country, particularly
Speaker 5: swing states in Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, we got to win
Speaker 5: by a big enough margin. They can't steal it. Will
Speaker 5: You see unscrupulous Democrats trying to steal votes absolutely. It
Speaker 5: has happened every election for as long as we've had elections.
Speaker 5: But the best way a we should do what we
Speaker 5: can to fight it and prevent it be we should
Speaker 5: pass laws to make it more difficult.
Speaker 6: But we're four days out.
Speaker 5: Real answer now is that we need to turn voters
Speaker 5: out in every state in the country and win by
Speaker 5: such a big margin that nobody can steal the result.
Speaker 5: As Trump puts it, make it too big to rig.
Speaker 5: That's got to be at this point. That has got
Speaker 5: to be the number one approach.
Speaker 1: Senator, final question for you, and this is an election question.
Speaker 1: There is massive early voting numbers that are coming in
Speaker 1: around the country. There are two thoughts on this, and
Speaker 1: we see that women in swing states are outpacing men
Speaker 1: by about ten percent when it comes to the votes
Speaker 1: that are coming in early voting. Democrats say this is great.
Speaker 1: It means that women are showing up and they're voting
Speaker 1: on the issue of abortion, which means they're going to
Speaker 1: vote for Kamwa Harris and other Democrats. And then there's others.
Speaker 1: That's a hold on a second, not so fast. Conservatives
Speaker 1: are voting earlier now and a lot of single mothers
Speaker 1: may be voting early, and a lot of mothers are
Speaker 1: struggling with the economy. What is your gut on this,
Speaker 1: because I don't think it's a bunch of people showing
Speaker 1: up on the abortion issue.
Speaker 5: Well, look, I think it probably varies state by state,
Speaker 5: and so I don't know the data. In the swing states.
Speaker 5: I will say right now, there is a real and
Speaker 5: meaningful gender gap in terms of the votes that if
Speaker 5: you look at it, Republicans right now are winning married men,
Speaker 5: Republicans are winning single men, and Republicans are winning married women. However,
Speaker 5: Republicans are badly losing single women, that is in terms
Speaker 5: of national polling. So one of the questions that I
Speaker 5: would have, and this is where it's hard to generalize
Speaker 5: from data without knowing specifics, but I would be very
Speaker 5: interested in the states where you're seeing a significantly larger
Speaker 5: number of women than men showing up early. I would
Speaker 5: be very interested in the breakdown between married women, married women,
Speaker 5: and single women, because there's a significant difference in their
Speaker 5: voting pattern. I can tell you also, at least in
Speaker 5: the state of Texas where early voting is happening, we're
Speaker 5: not seeing a significant differential between women and men. We're
Speaker 5: seeing about equal numbers of both voting in the state
Speaker 5: of Texas. I don't know about the other states. I
Speaker 5: haven't studied the numbers there, but it is difficult to generalize. Look,
Speaker 5: it's possible if you get a bunch of single women
Speaker 5: who are voting Democrats showing up in large numbers, that
Speaker 5: is a good data point for Kamala Harris. I don't
Speaker 5: know if that's the case or not. It may be
Speaker 5: that you have a bunch of conservative women, you have
Speaker 5: a bunch of married women who are coming out to
Speaker 5: vote for Donald Trump. You were right that Republicans are
Speaker 5: voting early and significantly greater frequency than they did previously,
Speaker 5: and I think one of the big reasons for that
Speaker 5: is that Trump asked them to and the Republican Party
Speaker 5: is making a very concerted effort to encourage people to
Speaker 5: vote early. So that one data point on its own,
Speaker 5: it's hard to generalize about. You really need to drill
Speaker 5: down more deeply into the data.
