1 00:00:01,240 --> 00:00:01,680 Speaker 1: Welcome. 2 00:00:01,760 --> 00:00:05,080 Speaker 2: It is Verdict with Center, Ted Cruz, Ben Ferguson with you. 3 00:00:05,160 --> 00:00:07,080 Speaker 2: This is also going to be the Ben Ferguson podcast, 4 00:00:07,200 --> 00:00:08,520 Speaker 2: and many of you are going to hear this on 5 00:00:08,680 --> 00:00:13,840 Speaker 2: radio stations as well. This is moments after the presidential debate, 6 00:00:14,280 --> 00:00:18,880 Speaker 2: Center Cruz. I didn't think it could actually be this bad. 7 00:00:19,440 --> 00:00:22,040 Speaker 2: It was worse than even I think either of us 8 00:00:22,079 --> 00:00:26,000 Speaker 2: could have imagined. And now the Democratic Party is screaming 9 00:00:26,120 --> 00:00:27,480 Speaker 2: replaced the president. 10 00:00:27,880 --> 00:00:29,680 Speaker 3: Well, you and I are sitting here at is ten 11 00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:33,840 Speaker 3: seventeen pm Texas time, at is eleven seventeen pm East 12 00:00:33,840 --> 00:00:36,240 Speaker 3: Coast time, the night of the debate. The debate just ended, 13 00:00:36,880 --> 00:00:38,920 Speaker 3: and I have to say we have just witnessed what 14 00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:42,720 Speaker 3: I believe is the most consequential presidential debate in US history. 15 00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:46,760 Speaker 3: Sometimes debate change, debates change things. Sometimes they don't. I 16 00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:51,440 Speaker 3: believe to bite tonight's debate change things fundamentally. And I 17 00:00:51,520 --> 00:00:54,880 Speaker 3: believe the odds have now skyrocketed. I believe the odds 18 00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:58,440 Speaker 3: are north of eighty percent that the Democrat Party will 19 00:00:58,520 --> 00:01:01,560 Speaker 3: remove Joe Biden from the ticket and replace him. And 20 00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:04,440 Speaker 3: I believe they are likely to replace Joe Biden with 21 00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:09,760 Speaker 3: Michelle Obama because Biden did so disastrously badly tonight that 22 00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:14,400 Speaker 3: Democrats across the country are in utter freefall and complete panic. 23 00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:15,800 Speaker 3: We're going to break all that down tonight. 24 00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:16,720 Speaker 1: Yeah. 25 00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:19,039 Speaker 2: And by the way, this was a prediction that you 26 00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:23,600 Speaker 2: made on this show back in September of twenty twenty 27 00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:27,640 Speaker 2: three that the Democratic king makers could bring in Michelle 28 00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:30,080 Speaker 2: Obama will break all that down. I want to tell 29 00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:32,960 Speaker 2: you real quick about our friends at the International Fellowship 30 00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:36,559 Speaker 2: of Christians and Jews, and as Israel's ground campaign against 31 00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:39,520 Speaker 2: the Hamas terrace is continuing, the IDF announced that it 32 00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:43,240 Speaker 2: expects to have complete control of the southern Gava city 33 00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:47,520 Speaker 2: of Rafa, a Hamas stronghold, within two weeks. Tensions continue 34 00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:51,160 Speaker 2: to rise in Israel's north as there are constant rocket 35 00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:55,120 Speaker 2: attacks from Hesblah that have been fired at Israel. Troops 36 00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:58,000 Speaker 2: have been injured. Sirens have been sounded in neighborhoods along 37 00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:01,000 Speaker 2: the eleven on Israel border as well. And that is 38 00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:04,240 Speaker 2: where your help comes in. You look at what is 39 00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:07,360 Speaker 2: happening right now, and they need your help. 40 00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:08,240 Speaker 1: In Israel. 41 00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:12,079 Speaker 2: Since the tear attack on October the seventh, anti Semitism 42 00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:14,960 Speaker 2: has been on the rise, not just in Israel, but 43 00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:17,000 Speaker 2: here at home, in the US and around the world. 44 00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:20,160 Speaker 2: And that is why I partnered with the International Fellowship 45 00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:22,960 Speaker 2: of Christians and Jews. And today I am coming to 46 00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:28,040 Speaker 2: you to ask that you stand with us and IFCJ. 47 00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:32,720 Speaker 2: This pledge is simple. We are asking Christians to stand 48 00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:35,680 Speaker 2: with their Jewish brothers and sisters, to never be silent, 49 00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:38,920 Speaker 2: to show the Jewish people they are not alone, that 50 00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:42,200 Speaker 2: they have God and Christians on their side. For the 51 00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:45,399 Speaker 2: month of June, We're asking Christians to sign the pledge, 52 00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:47,760 Speaker 2: which will be delivered to the President of Israel, to 53 00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:51,560 Speaker 2: show that Christians in America are not only standing in solidarity, 54 00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:54,600 Speaker 2: but they are speaking up as well. So let's take 55 00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:57,440 Speaker 2: a stand today with the International Fellowship of Christians and 56 00:02:57,520 --> 00:03:00,200 Speaker 2: Jews to let the Jewish people know that they air 57 00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:03,360 Speaker 2: not alone and we stand proudly behind them. To sign 58 00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:05,320 Speaker 2: the pledge, all you have to do is go to 59 00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:11,760 Speaker 2: support IFCJ dot org. That support IFCJ dot org to 60 00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:14,639 Speaker 2: take a stand today and stand with the people of Israel. 61 00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:19,760 Speaker 2: Support IFCJ dot org Centaer. I want to get to 62 00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:22,960 Speaker 2: some of the highlights, but even before we get to 63 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:26,240 Speaker 2: the debate, I think the most shocking part is what 64 00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 2: happened directly after the debate. 65 00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:30,920 Speaker 1: This was the. 66 00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:34,280 Speaker 2: First thing that America heard on CNN, the host of 67 00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:34,840 Speaker 2: the debate. 68 00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:37,840 Speaker 4: That's into the debate, and it continues right now. It 69 00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:42,279 Speaker 4: involves party strategists, it involves elected officials, it involves fundraisers, 70 00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:45,880 Speaker 4: and they're having conversations about the president's performance, which they 71 00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:48,360 Speaker 4: think was dismal, which they think will hurt other people 72 00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:51,080 Speaker 4: down the party in the ticket, and they're having conversations 73 00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:53,000 Speaker 4: about what they should do about it. Some of those 74 00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:55,160 Speaker 4: conversations include, should we go to the White House and 75 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:58,920 Speaker 4: ask the president's step aside? Or other of the conversations 76 00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:02,320 Speaker 4: are about should prominent Democrats go public with that call 77 00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:05,160 Speaker 4: because they feel this debate was so terrible. 78 00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:07,800 Speaker 1: They do say in moments in the debate. 79 00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:10,160 Speaker 4: Later the president got better and got his footing, but 80 00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:11,960 Speaker 4: then at the end, even his closing statement was a 81 00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:14,720 Speaker 4: little halting the contrast between the two candidates. 82 00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:16,320 Speaker 1: Let me be clear, none of them and. 83 00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:18,599 Speaker 4: A lot of Republicans don't think Donald Trump had a 84 00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:20,920 Speaker 4: great night. Donald Trump broke the fact check machine more 85 00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:22,960 Speaker 4: than I can count tonight. That will be on the 86 00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:25,440 Speaker 4: record as we go forward. He refused to answer some 87 00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:28,839 Speaker 4: very specific and direct questions about his conduct about January sixth. 88 00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:29,200 Speaker 5: And what all. 89 00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:30,880 Speaker 1: So that will be dealt. 90 00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:33,719 Speaker 4: With out there. And sometimes there's a parallel universe between 91 00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:36,960 Speaker 4: the political elites and the American people. Be nice to 92 00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:39,040 Speaker 4: see what the voters say. But I can tell you 93 00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:41,359 Speaker 4: it started minutes in. It started with the first couple 94 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:43,640 Speaker 4: of answers, and it has continued throughout the night from 95 00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:45,840 Speaker 4: oh my god, Oh my god, oh my god. 96 00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:46,760 Speaker 1: To what do we do about this? 97 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:49,760 Speaker 4: And it involves very senior people in the Democratic Party, 98 00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:53,920 Speaker 4: including elected officials, saying we have a problem, and just we. 99 00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:54,760 Speaker 1: Have a problem. 100 00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:58,599 Speaker 2: They're moving actively right now to replace Joe Biden, saying 101 00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:02,080 Speaker 2: we've got time before the convention, which is exactly what 102 00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:04,400 Speaker 2: you predicted on this show nine months ago. 103 00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:08,240 Speaker 3: Well, let me say what you played just there. I 104 00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:09,960 Speaker 3: agree with half of it, and I disagree with half 105 00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:11,840 Speaker 3: of it. What I do agree with is that Joe 106 00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:18,360 Speaker 3: Biden did unbelievably badly, that the degree of dementia he 107 00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:22,480 Speaker 3: is facing right now, it is escalated to a point 108 00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:24,960 Speaker 3: that it is unrecognizable. And I think there are a 109 00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:27,919 Speaker 3: great many Democrats who are looking at this saying we 110 00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:31,279 Speaker 3: cannot nominate this man. He is not capable. He doesn't 111 00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:32,600 Speaker 3: know what's going on. In a second, we're going to 112 00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:35,040 Speaker 3: play a couple of clips that show that. But it 113 00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:38,160 Speaker 3: was I will say, as badly as I thought Joe 114 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:41,240 Speaker 3: Biden was going to do, he did worse. It was stunning. 115 00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:44,600 Speaker 3: I've never seen a debate performance this bad. But the 116 00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:47,279 Speaker 3: part I disagree of what you just played is I 117 00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:50,280 Speaker 3: think Donald Trump had hands down his best debate performance 118 00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:51,440 Speaker 3: he has ever had in his life. 119 00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:51,640 Speaker 5: Look. 120 00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:54,520 Speaker 3: I've stood on that stage with Donald Trump about a 121 00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:57,760 Speaker 3: dozen times, and I've seen him and sometimes he said 122 00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:00,760 Speaker 3: good debates. Sometimes he's had less than good debates. Tonight 123 00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:04,400 Speaker 3: he did exactly what earlier this morning, you and I 124 00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:07,000 Speaker 3: did a special podcast preparing for this debate, and what 125 00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:09,400 Speaker 3: you and I talked about that Trump needed to do 126 00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:15,280 Speaker 3: is be calm, be measured, be under control, not interrupt 127 00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:20,520 Speaker 3: Joe Biden, let him hang himself, give him the airtime 128 00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:25,520 Speaker 3: to talk. And Trump did that spectacularly. He was restrained, 129 00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:30,000 Speaker 3: even as Biden was saying ridiculous things. He was restrained, 130 00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:33,359 Speaker 3: he was calmed, he was matter of fact. He prosecuted 131 00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:37,000 Speaker 3: the case and Biden couldn't handle it. Biden repeatedly, what 132 00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:40,080 Speaker 3: was screaming, You're a liar, you're lying, you could I 133 00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:44,279 Speaker 3: mean he was. There were moments. Look, it's clear we 134 00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:46,800 Speaker 3: talked before about the meds. They had him on meds. 135 00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:49,040 Speaker 3: They put him on different meds from the State of 136 00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:51,840 Speaker 3: the Union. He was not nearly as amped up as 137 00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:54,720 Speaker 3: he was at the State of the Union. But when 138 00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:59,159 Speaker 3: Trump poked him and he got angry, Biden couldn't respond 139 00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:02,960 Speaker 3: other than just screaming, liar, liar, liar. And he returned 140 00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:05,360 Speaker 3: to the State of the Union, old man on his 141 00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:07,720 Speaker 3: front porch, screaming, get off my front port. She had 142 00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:11,120 Speaker 3: moments like that, But that's not even the dominant takeaway. 143 00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:14,640 Speaker 3: The dominant takeaway is this is a man who doesn't 144 00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:15,560 Speaker 3: know what's going on here. 145 00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:16,800 Speaker 5: I want to play the. 146 00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:21,560 Speaker 3: Clip early in the debate where he just completely loses 147 00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:24,560 Speaker 3: his train of thought, and this is the answer at 148 00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:27,800 Speaker 3: which I think people all over the country said, uh, oh, 149 00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:29,000 Speaker 3: this guy's just not there. 150 00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:29,600 Speaker 5: Give a listen. 151 00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:33,800 Speaker 6: I sculd me with dealing with everything we have to 152 00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:41,600 Speaker 6: do with. Look, if we finally beat medicare. 153 00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:48,080 Speaker 2: We finally beat medicare, I mean Donald Trump's response was quote, 154 00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:51,000 Speaker 2: I don't I really don't know what he said at 155 00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:54,000 Speaker 2: the end of that sentence. I don't think he knows 156 00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:55,560 Speaker 2: what he said either. 157 00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:59,440 Speaker 3: And Biden gets lost and and Trump counters with what 158 00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:01,680 Speaker 3: he counters to. That is and by the way, the 159 00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:03,800 Speaker 3: question had nothing to do with medicare, Like the word 160 00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:06,640 Speaker 3: medicare comes completely out of left field. It's the only 161 00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:10,120 Speaker 3: thing he mentioned. He's just like, we finally beat medicare. 162 00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:13,520 Speaker 3: And then Trump cames and said, well, he said at 163 00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:16,880 Speaker 3: the end, he beat medicare. He beat it to death. 164 00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:19,840 Speaker 3: Give a listen to Trump's response.

And he's destroying medicare because all of 175 00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:59,000 Speaker 7: these people are coming in, they're putting them on Medicare, 176 00:08:59,040 --> 00:08:59,800 Speaker 7: They're putting them on. 177 00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:03,720 Speaker 2: I mean you hear that he just stopped, didn't know 178 00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:05,520 Speaker 2: what he was doing. And if you look at the 179 00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:09,720 Speaker 2: look on his face, Senator Joe Biden actually looked lost 180 00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:11,720 Speaker 2: and was looking around like what am I doing? 181 00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:12,360 Speaker 5: Where am I? 182 00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:17,800 Speaker 3: His brain was frozen, it short circuited throughout the time. 183 00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:21,440 Speaker 3: I'll tell you Joe Biden did badly when he wasn't talking. 184 00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:23,600 Speaker 3: When he wasn't talking, the look on his face was 185 00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:26,840 Speaker 3: a look of confusion. Listen, anyone who's ever dealt with 186 00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:30,480 Speaker 3: with an elderly parent, an elderly grandparent who's dealing with 187 00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:34,880 Speaker 3: the loss of their faculties knows that look. My grandmother Miabuela, 188 00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:38,959 Speaker 3: whom I love, she had Alzheimer's. I've seen, I've seen 189 00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:41,840 Speaker 3: what happens. It was clear he didn't know what was 190 00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:47,480 Speaker 3: going on. He was just confused. And even his most 191 00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:53,080 Speaker 3: passionate defenders, they can't defend them all, right, Maria Shriver. 192 00:09:53,920 --> 00:09:54,760 Speaker 1: I just saw this. 193 00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:58,400 Speaker 2: Kennel Kennedy, Yeah, I just saw this. 194 00:09:59,559 --> 00:10:03,320 Speaker 3: Democrat 're Democrat Royalty. Let me read you what she 195 00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:04,680 Speaker 3: just tweeted moments ago. 196 00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:05,720 Speaker 5: Quote. 197 00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:08,480 Speaker 3: I love Joe Biden. I know he's a good man. 198 00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:11,280 Speaker 3: I know his heart is good. I know he's dedicated 199 00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:14,200 Speaker 3: to our country and is surrounded by good people. Tonight 200 00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:18,560 Speaker 3: was heartbreaking in many ways. This is a big political moment. 201 00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:22,760 Speaker 3: There's panic in the Democratic Party. It's going to be 202 00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:27,120 Speaker 3: a long night. The Democrats have lost Maria Shriver. That's 203 00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:27,880 Speaker 3: a problem. 204 00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:31,480 Speaker 2: Well, and listen to Abby Phillips. Abby Phillips saying this 205 00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:35,560 Speaker 2: on CNN as well in the moments afterwards. This is 206 00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:38,840 Speaker 2: how she described how bad it was for Joe Biden. 207 00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:41,040 Speaker 8: And just to co sign what John is saying. I mean, 208 00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:43,920 Speaker 8: the panic that I am hearing from Democrats is not 209 00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:47,000 Speaker 8: like anything that I have heard in this campaign so far, 210 00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:48,800 Speaker 8: and a lot of it has to do with First 211 00:10:48,800 --> 00:10:51,760 Speaker 8: of all, there was a deep frustration about Trump's lies. 212 00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:53,280 Speaker 1: I mean, he lied a lot tonight. 213 00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:56,800 Speaker 8: But the problem for Biden was that Trump was able 214 00:10:56,840 --> 00:11:01,800 Speaker 8: to take sometimes incredible falsehoods and turn them into some 215 00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:05,480 Speaker 8: kind of argument, whereas Biden's answers were in a lot 216 00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:09,679 Speaker 8: of cases not coherent, deeply problematic. That he was not 217 00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:14,920 Speaker 8: able to take pretty straightforward answers and answer them to. 218 00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:18,080 Speaker 5: The that's CNN. 219 00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:22,079 Speaker 3: That is CNN who's saying the Democrats are panicking and 220 00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:24,439 Speaker 3: Biden's answers where in a lot of cases not go here, 221 00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:27,360 Speaker 3: all right, play Van Jones, Van Jones, this is the 222 00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:29,280 Speaker 3: hard left here, he's on CNN. 223 00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:31,800 Speaker 5: Listen. Here's what Van Jones had to say. 224 00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:36,559 Speaker 1: I was painful. I love Joe Biden. I worked for 225 00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:42,120 Speaker 1: Joe Biden. He didn't do well at all. He did 226 00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:43,000 Speaker 1: not do well at all. 227 00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:46,960 Speaker 2: It's like a funeral. It's like you're watching a funeral 228 00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:50,280 Speaker 2: in real time on CNN. And this is their instant reaction. 229 00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:53,400 Speaker 2: These are the first voices that America heard after the debate. 230 00:11:53,800 --> 00:11:57,080 Speaker 2: Drudge Report, for example, which used to be pretty conservative center, 231 00:11:57,440 --> 00:12:00,480 Speaker 2: now they really hate Donald Trump. Their headline right now 232 00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:04,800 Speaker 2: is Operation Replace Biden, dim scramble with one hundred and 233 00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:10,680 Speaker 2: thirty days to go debate catastrophe, Which brings me back 234 00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:14,320 Speaker 2: to let's go back to nine months ago. Nine months ago, 235 00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:18,560 Speaker 2: September the eighteenth, You and I had this conversation. And 236 00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:20,120 Speaker 2: by the way, there were a lot in the media, 237 00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:22,480 Speaker 2: and there were a lot of other people in Washington 238 00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:25,000 Speaker 2: that said you and I were crazy for having this conversation. 239 00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:26,320 Speaker 1: So let's play the clip. 240 00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:30,480 Speaker 3: So here's the scenario that I think is perhaps most 241 00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:37,000 Speaker 3: likely and most dangerous. In August of twenty twenty four, 242 00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:46,120 Speaker 3: the Democrat Kingmakers jettison Joe Biden and parachute in Michelle Obama, and. 243 00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:47,719 Speaker 5: I want you to pause and reflect on it. 244 00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:50,080 Speaker 2: So I'm pausing, and I'm reflecting, as we said, and 245 00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:51,160 Speaker 2: so is everybody else listening. 246 00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:56,160 Speaker 5: Right now, I view this as a very serious danger. 247 00:12:56,760 --> 00:12:58,760 Speaker 1: I'm smiling right now because it terrifies me. And I 248 00:12:58,800 --> 00:13:00,200 Speaker 1: also could totally see this happen. 249 00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:05,559 Speaker 3: So Michelle Obama, number one, you don't infuriate African American women, 250 00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:09,000 Speaker 3: which is a critical part of the constituency that Democrats 251 00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:12,080 Speaker 3: are relying on to win. But number two, you avoid 252 00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:13,960 Speaker 3: the problem if you pick from any of the four. 253 00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:18,160 Speaker 3: The other three are pissed because they're all, to some 254 00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:21,800 Speaker 3: extent peers, they're rivals, they're all jabbin knives at each other. 255 00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:26,640 Speaker 3: Michelle Obama, because she was first Lady, has the ability 256 00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:30,880 Speaker 3: to kind of parachute in above all four and say, hey, 257 00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:33,600 Speaker 3: we're not picking among any of you. You guys can 258 00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:35,480 Speaker 3: all fight it out. Next time. You're all going to 259 00:13:35,559 --> 00:13:38,640 Speaker 3: be on the same level. We're coming. This is the 260 00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:42,080 Speaker 3: Obamas saving the day. And I think in terms of 261 00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:46,280 Speaker 3: a solution, that unifies Democrats. 262 00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:48,000 Speaker 5: There ain't nothing like that. 263 00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:52,679 Speaker 3: I also think Michelle is not all that eager to 264 00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:56,440 Speaker 3: run for president. But to parachute in in August of 265 00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:59,080 Speaker 3: twenty four, a couple of months before the presidency and 266 00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:02,640 Speaker 3: suddenly wake up and to be president not a bad gig. 267 00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:04,480 Speaker 5: It's not a bad gig at all. Now would she 268 00:14:04,679 --> 00:14:05,800 Speaker 5: do it? I don't know. 269 00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:10,120 Speaker 3: I've met Michelle, but I don't know her personally in 270 00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:11,040 Speaker 3: any meaningful way. 271 00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:13,040 Speaker 5: I don't know if she would do it. 272 00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:18,599 Speaker 3: I do think Barack Obama is already running the Biden administration. 273 00:14:18,679 --> 00:14:21,480 Speaker 3: I think he is already the puppet master behind this 274 00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:23,920 Speaker 3: Biden white House. I don't think Joe Biden is the 275 00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:27,880 Speaker 3: decision maker. And so when I see the media turning 276 00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:31,640 Speaker 3: on Joe Biden right now, I think the odds of 277 00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:36,360 Speaker 3: Michelle Obama parachuting in in August of twenty twenty four 278 00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:40,640 Speaker 3: have risen dramatically, and that ought to scare the hell 279 00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:45,760 Speaker 3: out anyone who is unhappy about the direction this country 280 00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:48,760 Speaker 3: is going and doesn't want us to go even crazier 281 00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:50,080 Speaker 3: in an even worse direct. 282 00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:53,560 Speaker 2: September eighteenth, center of twenty twenty three, we had this 283 00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:58,600 Speaker 2: discussion and even right now on MSN dot com. The 284 00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:04,120 Speaker 2: headline is we beat Medicare Biden Freeze's mid answer before 285 00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:07,520 Speaker 2: being bailed out by moderator, and then they go on 286 00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:10,760 Speaker 2: to talk about that was a total disaster by the 287 00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:14,280 Speaker 2: sitting president and Democrats are running to replace Joe Biden, 288 00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:17,040 Speaker 2: so they're not even having the conversation behind closed doors. 289 00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:19,640 Speaker 2: They're having it out on national TV right now and 290 00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:20,440 Speaker 2: in the news. 291 00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:24,320 Speaker 3: Well, and Ben, what you've just played is I think 292 00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:28,480 Speaker 3: as good a promo for this podcast as you possibly 293 00:15:28,520 --> 00:15:28,880 Speaker 3: could have. 294 00:15:29,680 --> 00:15:31,240 Speaker 5: What we are facing right now. 295 00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:34,320 Speaker 3: We predicted on this podcast nine months ago, in September 296 00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:36,360 Speaker 3: of twenty twenty three. We were among the very first 297 00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:38,000 Speaker 3: voices to do that. At the time, it made a 298 00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:40,560 Speaker 3: bunch of headlines. And you're right, people thought we were 299 00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:43,520 Speaker 3: batcrap crazy. Let's be clear, they thought I was bat 300 00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:45,840 Speaker 3: crap crazy. I shouldn't say we had stick you into that. 301 00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:49,160 Speaker 3: You were there while I was making that prediction, and 302 00:15:49,200 --> 00:15:52,680 Speaker 3: they were like, Cruise has lost his mind. And by 303 00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:55,080 Speaker 3: the way, in terms of predictions, we also at the 304 00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:57,280 Speaker 3: outset of COVID laid out all of the evidence that 305 00:15:57,320 --> 00:16:03,400 Speaker 3: COVID originated in the Chinese lab in when CNN and ABC, CBS, 306 00:16:03,520 --> 00:16:06,360 Speaker 3: NBC were suppressing that news, when Facebook and Twitter were 307 00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:08,600 Speaker 3: suppressing that news. We were laying out the evidence then 308 00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:13,720 Speaker 3: and this morning, before the debate, our analysis of the debate, 309 00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:17,320 Speaker 3: I predicted, unequivocally, Donald Trump is going to kick Joe 310 00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:21,280 Speaker 3: Biden's ass. That was my prediction. That is exactly what happened. 311 00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:23,880 Speaker 3: It was the title of the show. And there were 312 00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:27,560 Speaker 3: not a lot of people predicting that, but I number one, 313 00:16:27,640 --> 00:16:31,600 Speaker 3: thought Biden would do terribly. But number two, if Trump 314 00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:35,280 Speaker 3: could remain controlled, and he did that, he did that 315 00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:37,600 Speaker 3: in an excellent way. I'm going to call President Trump 316 00:16:37,640 --> 00:16:39,920 Speaker 3: tomorrow and tell him it's the best debate he's ever done, 317 00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:42,080 Speaker 3: and I've been there for a lot of them. He 318 00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:45,880 Speaker 3: was measured, he was controlled, he was fact based, He 319 00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:49,160 Speaker 3: laid out the case. Even his response on medicare, Let's 320 00:16:49,160 --> 00:16:52,040 Speaker 3: take the one we just played. It would be easy 321 00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:55,000 Speaker 3: to be starky and say, okay, this guy is like 322 00:16:55,800 --> 00:16:59,320 Speaker 3: that answer is incoherent. What Trump did was even better. 323 00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:01,760 Speaker 3: There said I mean, look, he said he actually did 324 00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:05,640 Speaker 3: beat medicare, which was obviously a weird brain short circuit. 325 00:17:06,160 --> 00:17:08,480 Speaker 3: And he said the reason he beat Medicare is because 326 00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:12,240 Speaker 3: he's let millions and millions of legal immigrants into this country. 327 00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:13,760 Speaker 3: He's putting them all in Medicare, which is going to 328 00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:16,160 Speaker 3: bankrupt Medicare. And that was a major message that Trump 329 00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:18,840 Speaker 3: is hitting, is that the invasion on our southern border 330 00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:21,760 Speaker 3: is also bankrupting Medicare and social Security. I think that 331 00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:24,360 Speaker 3: was a smart decision to lean in on that. Joe 332 00:17:24,400 --> 00:17:28,680 Speaker 3: Biden had no answer. He had no response all night long. 333 00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:32,000 Speaker 3: As Trump laid out the case you caused the inflation, 334 00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:34,880 Speaker 3: Joe Biden had no response to that. As Trump laid 335 00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:37,520 Speaker 3: out the people who are being murdered all across this 336 00:17:37,640 --> 00:17:41,320 Speaker 3: country from criminals and insane asylums. When Trump would say, look, 337 00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:44,520 Speaker 3: Venezuela is emptying their jails and sending US murderers and 338 00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:48,159 Speaker 3: rapists and child molesters and lunatics, you saw Joe Biden 339 00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:51,159 Speaker 3: just looking confused. He had no response, He didn't dispute it. 340 00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:55,720 Speaker 3: He had nothing to say in response on foreign policy, 341 00:17:56,040 --> 00:17:58,920 Speaker 3: and we talked about this again in this morning's podcast 342 00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:03,200 Speaker 3: and just said, well, if Trump's president Putin will invade 343 00:18:03,240 --> 00:18:05,280 Speaker 3: all of Ukraine and all of Europe, and Trump is like, 344 00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:09,320 Speaker 3: what utter crap? When I was president Russia didn't invade 345 00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:12,280 Speaker 3: one square inch of territory anywhere on planet Earth. And 346 00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:14,560 Speaker 3: by the way, he did under Barack Obama, and he 347 00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:18,000 Speaker 3: did under Joe Biden. You're so weak that that's why 348 00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:23,760 Speaker 3: Putin invaded and it. Trump did an excellent job of 349 00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:29,719 Speaker 3: prosecuting the case, and Biden was utterly incapable of responding. 350 00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:34,800 Speaker 3: And I think you are seeing seeing Democrats freaking out now. 351 00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:37,280 Speaker 3: I believe there are two things. Well, let me say 352 00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:39,120 Speaker 3: a couple of things. Number one, let me tell you why. 353 00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:41,119 Speaker 3: I believe it'll be Michelle Obama because you're going to 354 00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:44,680 Speaker 3: see today and tomorrow all sorts of discussion. You're gonna 355 00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:48,280 Speaker 3: hear Gavin Newsome, You're gonna hear all sorts of other names. 356 00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:49,520 Speaker 1: Let me ask you this. 357 00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:51,800 Speaker 2: I think if they do it, what's the pitch Because 358 00:18:51,800 --> 00:18:55,240 Speaker 2: it's gonna start with Barack Obama, who was just leading 359 00:18:55,320 --> 00:18:58,480 Speaker 2: Joe Biden off stage, remember, and everybody saw it like 360 00:18:58,520 --> 00:19:00,359 Speaker 2: he was an elderly old man in opa home. And 361 00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:02,040 Speaker 2: I'm not saying that to be mean, I'm just being 362 00:19:02,119 --> 00:19:05,879 Speaker 2: honest about it. And clearly he witnessed how bad it was. 363 00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:08,680 Speaker 2: Then is he the guy that has to look at 364 00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:10,359 Speaker 2: Michelle and I going I'd do it, but I can. 365 00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:12,480 Speaker 2: I've already been president for eight years. It has to 366 00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:13,240 Speaker 2: be you, honey. 367 00:19:14,560 --> 00:19:16,520 Speaker 3: Well, let me break it to two pieces. Let me 368 00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:19,240 Speaker 3: tell you why it has to be Michelle. It has 369 00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:22,840 Speaker 3: to be Michelle because of Kamala Harris. Kamala Harris is 370 00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:26,680 Speaker 3: the VP. If you push Joe Biden aside, Kamala's next 371 00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:29,840 Speaker 3: in line. The people who say we want Gavin Newsom, 372 00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:32,919 Speaker 3: you know what if the Democrat Party pushes an African 373 00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:35,680 Speaker 3: American woman aside and replaces her with a white guy, 374 00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:40,280 Speaker 3: their party implodes. They cannot do it. They are being 375 00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:44,879 Speaker 3: counters and they are faced. It's actually what forced Joe 376 00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:46,760 Speaker 3: Biden to pick Kamala in the first place. He backed 377 00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:50,040 Speaker 3: himself into it. He doesn't like Kamala. And the problem 378 00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:52,600 Speaker 3: Democrats are having that now is they're looking at Joe Biden. 379 00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:56,080 Speaker 3: They're saying, oh my goodness, this guy cannot be our nominee. 380 00:19:56,359 --> 00:19:58,720 Speaker 3: And they look at Kamala and they recognize she's a 381 00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:02,679 Speaker 3: terrible nominee. And if she's the nominee, they know they'll lose. 382 00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:07,919 Speaker 3: And so their problem is the only person on planet 383 00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:11,360 Speaker 3: Earth who can push Kamala Harris aside is Michelle Obama 384 00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:16,000 Speaker 3: another African American woman who stands on a different footing 385 00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:20,040 Speaker 3: as a former first lady. Now, what are the impediments 386 00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:24,040 Speaker 3: that stop it? The impediments are twofold number one, Michelle 387 00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:27,760 Speaker 3: says no, number two. Joe Biden says no. On the 388 00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:30,399 Speaker 3: Michelle says no. I think you're going to have Barrock 389 00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:32,480 Speaker 3: coming to her. I think you're going to have a 390 00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:35,840 Speaker 3: lot of Democrat kingmakers coming to her. And the pitch 391 00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:38,960 Speaker 3: is going to be, Michelle, you need to save America. Michelle, 392 00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:41,679 Speaker 3: we need you, Michelle. If you do not step forward, 393 00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:44,040 Speaker 3: Donald Trump is going to be president. Michelle, you are 394 00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:46,800 Speaker 3: the only person on planet Earth that can save the 395 00:20:46,840 --> 00:20:48,600 Speaker 3: world from a Donald Trump presidency. 396 00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:49,440 Speaker 5: And listen. 397 00:20:49,480 --> 00:20:54,080 Speaker 3: People perceive Michelle Obama as somewhat nonpartisan because she was 398 00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:56,399 Speaker 3: a first late in first ladies kind of stay out 399 00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:59,879 Speaker 3: of politics. I think she is more radical than Barack. 400 00:21:00,280 --> 00:21:02,119 Speaker 3: I think she is an ideologue. I think she is 401 00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:05,240 Speaker 3: a leftist. You remember when when Barack Obama was running 402 00:21:05,240 --> 00:21:08,159 Speaker 3: and she talked about his getting elected was the first 403 00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:10,200 Speaker 3: time in her life she was proud of her country. 404 00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:14,760 Speaker 3: I think she embraces hardcore leftism, but a lot of 405 00:21:14,760 --> 00:21:17,360 Speaker 3: people don't know that. And so the pitch to her 406 00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:20,280 Speaker 3: is going to be save America. And then the pitch 407 00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:23,560 Speaker 3: to Joe Biden. She's got to say yes number one. 408 00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:25,600 Speaker 3: And then too, Joe Biden has got to agree to 409 00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:28,040 Speaker 3: step aside. And I think you're going to see in 410 00:21:28,080 --> 00:21:30,479 Speaker 3: the coming days. You know, you played my prediction from 411 00:21:30,560 --> 00:21:32,760 Speaker 3: September of twenty twenty three. The only thing I might 412 00:21:32,800 --> 00:21:35,440 Speaker 3: have gotten wrong is I said that this would happen 413 00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:37,560 Speaker 3: in August of twenty twenty four. It may be July 414 00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:39,359 Speaker 3: of twenty twenty four. I may have been a month 415 00:21:39,400 --> 00:21:43,880 Speaker 3: off in the timing. Because this debate I think changed 416 00:21:43,880 --> 00:21:44,840 Speaker 3: the fundamental terrain. 417 00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:49,320 Speaker 2: Let's also talk about there was two moments that I 418 00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:52,600 Speaker 2: think really speak to the demise of the cognitive colan 419 00:21:52,680 --> 00:21:57,479 Speaker 2: of Joe Biden. And it was subtle but significant, and 420 00:21:57,520 --> 00:21:58,320 Speaker 2: I want to get. 421 00:21:58,160 --> 00:21:59,679 Speaker 1: Your reaction to it. 422 00:21:59,720 --> 00:22:02,399 Speaker 2: There was one moment when he was asked about social 423 00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:06,520 Speaker 2: Security and he gave a very very short answer and 424 00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:08,480 Speaker 2: then the moderators looked at him like, what are you doing? 425 00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:11,200 Speaker 2: You still have I think they said eighty four seconds 426 00:22:11,280 --> 00:22:13,520 Speaker 2: left or something like that. There was another time he 427 00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:16,199 Speaker 2: was talking about African American voters, African American community, and 428 00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:19,280 Speaker 2: African American issues. And they're like, sir, you still have 429 00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:22,320 Speaker 2: like another minute and ex ember of seconds, sixty four 430 00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:23,080 Speaker 2: seconds left. 431 00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:24,840 Speaker 1: He couldn't even. 432 00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:26,680 Speaker 3: By the way, he spent eight days at Camp David 433 00:22:26,760 --> 00:22:29,000 Speaker 3: preparing and he could not fill the two minutes with 434 00:22:29,040 --> 00:22:29,439 Speaker 3: it a the. 435 00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:33,879 Speaker 2: Two minutes on two vitally important issues like social Security. 436 00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:36,560 Speaker 2: Any politician should be able to fill for two minutes. 437 00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:37,760 Speaker 2: In fact, you should be able to fill. 438 00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:40,440 Speaker 3: These were not subtle, These were not gotcha's, These were 439 00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:44,880 Speaker 3: obvious questions. He had nothing to say. He was scared. 440 00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:48,879 Speaker 3: He was a deer in the headlights. 441 00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:53,080 Speaker 2: So you said, deer in headlights. Let's go to the 442 00:22:53,119 --> 00:22:56,200 Speaker 2: next conversation that's being had right now. And I'm sure 443 00:22:56,200 --> 00:22:59,000 Speaker 2: it's being had at the White House, at the EOB, 444 00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:03,320 Speaker 2: at the Camp Paying headquarters. Who goes to the president 445 00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:06,520 Speaker 2: first and says step down? And then you're also dealing. 446 00:23:06,320 --> 00:23:06,840 Speaker 1: With every guy. 447 00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:09,960 Speaker 2: That's everybody very stubborn though like he can just can't 448 00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:12,040 Speaker 2: he just look at him say I'm not gonna do it. 449 00:23:13,240 --> 00:23:16,560 Speaker 3: He is absolutely stubborn. I think it is BARACKO Bob. 450 00:23:16,600 --> 00:23:18,280 Speaker 3: I think it is Nancy Pelosi. I think it is 451 00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:21,080 Speaker 3: Chuck Schumer. I think it is every leader in the 452 00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:23,720 Speaker 3: Democrat Party. It's not Kamala Harris Kamo is not allowed 453 00:23:23,720 --> 00:23:26,000 Speaker 3: in the room, but I think it is. And they 454 00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:28,200 Speaker 3: go to him and they're pitch to him. They say, Joe, 455 00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:31,520 Speaker 3: you were an historic president, you saved America from Donald Trump. 456 00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:34,000 Speaker 3: You wanted to be the next FDR. I think they will. 457 00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:35,959 Speaker 3: They will appeal to his vanity and say you are 458 00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:40,520 Speaker 3: the next to FDR. You are consequential right now. If 459 00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:43,200 Speaker 3: you stay in the race, you risk undoing your entire 460 00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:47,359 Speaker 3: legacy and giving that legacy going down in history as 461 00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:49,840 Speaker 3: the man who made Donald Trump president. If you stay 462 00:23:49,840 --> 00:23:52,359 Speaker 3: in this race, it will be your fault that Trump 463 00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:54,840 Speaker 3: is president. I think they'll appeal to his vanity and 464 00:23:55,040 --> 00:23:58,600 Speaker 3: and look that that is, I think to Joe bideny 465 00:23:58,680 --> 00:23:59,600 Speaker 3: really powerful pitch. 466 00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:02,560 Speaker 5: Look you look at the debate tonight. He said things. 467 00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:05,840 Speaker 3: At one point, he said, during Trump's presidency, we had 468 00:24:05,840 --> 00:24:08,680 Speaker 3: a thousand trillionaires. By the way, there are no trillionaires 469 00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:12,080 Speaker 3: on planet Earth. At another point, he said, during Donald Trump, 470 00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:14,360 Speaker 3: we had fifty percent unemployment. 471 00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:15,920 Speaker 5: No, that is wildly wrong. 472 00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:20,280 Speaker 3: At another point, he said he created Joe Biden created 473 00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:23,040 Speaker 3: hundreds of millions of jobs. Mind you, there three hundred 474 00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:25,919 Speaker 3: and thirty million Americans and apparently he's created hundreds of 475 00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:28,440 Speaker 3: millions of jobs, so more more jobs than there are 476 00:24:28,440 --> 00:24:33,840 Speaker 3: working Americans. Like it is, every answer was a problem. 477 00:24:33,840 --> 00:24:36,320 Speaker 3: At another point, he said, the Border Patrol endorsed me. 478 00:24:36,400 --> 00:24:36,880 Speaker 5: Let's be clear. 479 00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:39,760 Speaker 3: The Border Patrol Union immediately tweeted out to be clear, 480 00:24:40,119 --> 00:24:43,919 Speaker 3: we have never and will never endorse Biden at every stage. 481 00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:48,920 Speaker 3: And what's interesting, he was also trying to insult Trump. Yeah, 482 00:24:48,960 --> 00:24:52,120 Speaker 3: and Trump didn't take debate. Yeah, and he was smart. 483 00:24:52,960 --> 00:24:57,639 Speaker 3: It was really at Actually when Trump poked Biden, Biden 484 00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:01,360 Speaker 3: freaked out. He couldn't not debate. And so the contrast, 485 00:25:01,560 --> 00:25:04,720 Speaker 3: and I'll say something else. You mentioned African American votes. 486 00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:08,480 Speaker 3: Trump's numbers are surging in the black community, and I 487 00:25:08,480 --> 00:25:11,800 Speaker 3: think tonight he made a very hard pitch for black voters, 488 00:25:11,840 --> 00:25:14,000 Speaker 3: and his most significant pitch. He had a lot of 489 00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:17,120 Speaker 3: points about how bad Trump, how bad Biden has been 490 00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:20,520 Speaker 3: for the African American community, talked about inflation, how it's 491 00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:23,760 Speaker 3: hammering black families, but then he also tied it to 492 00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:27,560 Speaker 3: illegal immigration, and he said, look, the millions and millions 493 00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:29,840 Speaker 3: of ill immigrants that are coming into this country. They're 494 00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:34,320 Speaker 3: taking jobs from black Americans. That is a powerful argument. 495 00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:37,520 Speaker 3: That is an argument. And by the way, Biden had 496 00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:40,320 Speaker 3: no response to that. It was silent. It was on 497 00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:47,160 Speaker 3: the substance. Trump prosecuted the case and Biden crashed and burned. 498 00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:50,720 Speaker 3: And in fact, the Wall Street Journal just sent out 499 00:25:50,760 --> 00:25:54,000 Speaker 3: their key takeaway, their story that they wrote tonight, and 500 00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:57,840 Speaker 3: it's now ten forty seven pm, and their headline is 501 00:25:57,920 --> 00:26:01,720 Speaker 3: Biden crashed in first debate with Trump. That's not an editorial, 502 00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:04,960 Speaker 3: that's the news headline in the Wall Street Journal because 503 00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:09,439 Speaker 3: it is just objectively. If you watch the Hindenburg explode, 504 00:26:09,800 --> 00:26:12,399 Speaker 3: you don't say Zeppelin landed tonight. 505 00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:13,640 Speaker 1: Great point. 506 00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:15,320 Speaker 2: I want to talk to you about my friends at 507 00:26:15,320 --> 00:26:18,600 Speaker 2: Blackout Coffee. The world is up in flames. Bidenomics is 508 00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:23,720 Speaker 2: a complete until disaster. And the reality is there's a 509 00:26:23,760 --> 00:26:25,520 Speaker 2: lot of companies out there that are still going to 510 00:26:25,600 --> 00:26:27,680 Speaker 2: try to prop him up. There's a lot of woke 511 00:26:27,920 --> 00:26:30,800 Speaker 2: liberal coffee companies out there that are going to still 512 00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:34,520 Speaker 2: give incredible amounts of money to Joe Biden and other 513 00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:37,960 Speaker 2: Democrats running for office. That is the one reason why 514 00:26:37,960 --> 00:26:40,280 Speaker 2: I want you to know about Blackout Coffee because they 515 00:26:40,320 --> 00:26:42,840 Speaker 2: were created by a group of conservatives that said, hey, 516 00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:45,760 Speaker 2: we're one hundred percent committed to conservative values. We're not 517 00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:48,680 Speaker 2: going to give our money these woke companies, and we're 518 00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:51,280 Speaker 2: committed to conservative values. From the sourcing of our beings, 519 00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:56,640 Speaker 2: the roasting process, customer support, and shipping. Blackout Coffee they 520 00:26:56,880 --> 00:27:01,640 Speaker 2: truly embody American values.

Well, 538 00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:57,600 Speaker 2: let's also talk about those that have been lying. The 539 00:27:57,720 --> 00:28:02,960 Speaker 2: media center has been lying, congressmen have been lying, staff 540 00:28:03,040 --> 00:28:06,280 Speaker 2: members have been lying. They've been going on TV telling 541 00:28:06,280 --> 00:28:08,760 Speaker 2: you that Joe Biden can run circles around me. The 542 00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:11,440 Speaker 2: White House Press Secretary saying over and over again, saying 543 00:28:11,480 --> 00:28:15,320 Speaker 2: there's no cognitive decline here, saying that he's in perfect health. 544 00:28:15,359 --> 00:28:18,200 Speaker 2: This guy is is a beast. You know, he's jacked 545 00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:22,000 Speaker 2: up aviator Joe. Now they're all actually having to admit 546 00:28:22,040 --> 00:28:24,040 Speaker 2: they're wrong, but no one's gonna, i think, call them 547 00:28:24,080 --> 00:28:26,560 Speaker 2: accountable for that. They're just gonna run out there and say, clearly, 548 00:28:26,600 --> 00:28:29,320 Speaker 2: it's time for him to step aside, step aside, step aside, 549 00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:34,320 Speaker 2: which is also weird because if you're not cognitive, you 550 00:28:34,359 --> 00:28:39,160 Speaker 2: don't have the cognitibility to be president in the future, right, 551 00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:42,600 Speaker 2: and they're saying he can't be the president come January again, 552 00:28:43,280 --> 00:28:46,600 Speaker 2: then when does the twenty fifth and does that even 553 00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:50,120 Speaker 2: come up? Because you're admitting that he's basically incapacitated. 554 00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:55,840 Speaker 3: Now, yeah, listen, we have seen reporters and we've seen 555 00:28:55,840 --> 00:28:58,960 Speaker 3: Democrats lying about Joe's mental capacity for a long time, 556 00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:04,200 Speaker 3: and nobody fair and objective who watched tonight could conclude 557 00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:06,840 Speaker 3: anything other than this is a man who is seriously 558 00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:09,840 Speaker 3: mentally diminished. You know it's interesting Andrew Yang, who you remember, 559 00:29:09,880 --> 00:29:12,920 Speaker 3: ran for president against Joe in twenty twenty, he tweeted 560 00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:16,920 Speaker 3: out tonight, quote, look, I debated Joe seven times in 561 00:29:16,960 --> 00:29:20,360 Speaker 3: twenty twenty. He's a different guy in twenty twenty four, 562 00:29:20,800 --> 00:29:26,320 Speaker 3: hashtag swap Joe out that that's from one of the 563 00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:30,600 Speaker 3: alternative one of the other candidates who ran against twenty twenty, 564 00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:33,440 Speaker 3: from a prominent Democrat. Two of the top trends that 565 00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:37,280 Speaker 3: were trending tonight right after the debate were dementia and 566 00:29:37,360 --> 00:29:38,280 Speaker 3: Michelle Obama. 567 00:29:38,840 --> 00:29:40,080 Speaker 5: Now that's bad news. 568 00:29:40,160 --> 00:29:47,560 Speaker 3: I's if that's what's what is trending. And all right, 569 00:29:47,960 --> 00:29:51,040 Speaker 3: I want to wrap up tonight's pod with this. I'm 570 00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:53,680 Speaker 3: going to do something I have rarely, if ever done. 571 00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:56,400 Speaker 3: I may never have done this before. I'm going to 572 00:29:56,440 --> 00:30:01,040 Speaker 3: praise CNN this morning's debate. You and I both thought 573 00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:03,880 Speaker 3: Jake Tapper and Dana Bash would do a terrible job. 574 00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:07,760 Speaker 3: They both hate Donald Trump, they both have become hard partisans. 575 00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:11,680 Speaker 3: CNN did an excellent job tonight with this debate. Jake 576 00:30:11,760 --> 00:30:16,600 Speaker 3: Tapper and Dana Bash. That was the best debate moderation 577 00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:20,240 Speaker 3: they have ever done. They ask good questions, They asked 578 00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:24,120 Speaker 3: substantive questions. They didn't make the debate about them. One 579 00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:26,640 Speaker 3: of the interesting things no one is debating about the 580 00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:31,880 Speaker 3: moderators bad debate moderators. When Chris Wallace debated moderated, the 581 00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:33,600 Speaker 3: whole debate was about him because he wanted to be 582 00:30:33,640 --> 00:30:35,480 Speaker 3: right in the center of the show. When Candy Crowley 583 00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:41,080 Speaker 3: from CNN was the moderator between Obama and Mitt Romney, 584 00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:44,400 Speaker 3: she made it all about her. Jake and Dana they 585 00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:48,040 Speaker 3: asked good questions, They moved subjects along. They would press 586 00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:51,760 Speaker 3: the candidates, but not in a jerky way. They just say, 587 00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:54,640 Speaker 3: I asked you the following question, you have another sixty 588 00:30:54,680 --> 00:30:56,800 Speaker 3: seconds to answer. When they didn't get their questions answered, 589 00:30:56,840 --> 00:31:00,160 Speaker 3: that's a perfectly reasonable thing for a debate moderator to 590 00:31:00,160 --> 00:31:02,920 Speaker 3: to do. I've been in multiple debates that each of 591 00:31:02,960 --> 00:31:07,000 Speaker 3: them have moderated. I think they both were incredibly sensitive 592 00:31:07,520 --> 00:31:09,959 Speaker 3: to everyone laying out the facts that they have shown 593 00:31:10,160 --> 00:31:14,400 Speaker 3: wild bias, and tonight tonight they didn't and they did 594 00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:16,400 Speaker 3: an excellent job, and I think that was a service 595 00:31:16,440 --> 00:31:17,000 Speaker 3: to the country. 596 00:31:17,360 --> 00:31:20,120 Speaker 2: I have to ask you one other question, because everyone's 597 00:31:20,160 --> 00:31:22,640 Speaker 2: asking it in their head right now, what is the 598 00:31:22,880 --> 00:31:23,560 Speaker 2: hold on a second? 599 00:31:23,560 --> 00:31:23,680 Speaker 4: Ben? 600 00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:26,160 Speaker 3: You didn't respond to that, and since you're a former 601 00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:29,440 Speaker 3: employee of CNN, I'm not gonna let you bet. Ben, 602 00:31:29,480 --> 00:31:32,080 Speaker 3: you have sixty two seconds. The question is do you 603 00:31:32,120 --> 00:31:34,280 Speaker 3: think Jake and Danna did a good job. 604 00:31:34,640 --> 00:31:36,760 Speaker 2: I think they did a decent job. And here's why 605 00:31:36,800 --> 00:31:38,400 Speaker 2: I'm not gonna get them as much cred as you did. 606 00:31:38,680 --> 00:31:41,120 Speaker 2: You ready for this, all right, but I'm gonna make 607 00:31:41,160 --> 00:31:43,440 Speaker 2: you answer it. I'm not gonna let you wiggle away. 608 00:31:43,560 --> 00:31:45,080 Speaker 1: Fair point. Here's what I'll say. 609 00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:48,200 Speaker 2: I think they were in as much shock as we were, going, 610 00:31:48,240 --> 00:31:51,720 Speaker 2: Holy crap, I'm watching an incapacitated president of the United 611 00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:54,800 Speaker 2: States of America, and they were caught so off guard 612 00:31:54,880 --> 00:31:56,800 Speaker 2: they said, just stick to the script, Just stick the script, 613 00:31:56,840 --> 00:31:59,480 Speaker 2: Just stick the script, like it was a default mode. 614 00:31:59,720 --> 00:32:03,600 Speaker 2: Because because it was such a glaring disaster with Biden 615 00:32:03,760 --> 00:32:06,720 Speaker 2: that no one, no, none of the moderators were honestly 616 00:32:06,720 --> 00:32:08,240 Speaker 2: paying attention to Donald Trump. 617 00:32:08,840 --> 00:32:09,280 Speaker 1: Yes, but. 618 00:32:11,040 --> 00:32:13,720 Speaker 3: Jake and DNA were more measured than I've ever seen them. 619 00:32:13,760 --> 00:32:18,280 Speaker 3: They were deliberately controlled. They knew that half the country 620 00:32:18,400 --> 00:32:21,760 Speaker 3: viewed them as wild eyed partisans. Look, we played this 621 00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:28,040 Speaker 3: morning Jake analogizing Trump to Adolf Hitler. Yes, and I 622 00:32:28,080 --> 00:32:32,520 Speaker 3: still believe that to I think he believes it. But 623 00:32:32,640 --> 00:32:35,280 Speaker 3: tonight that didn't come out. And and so if we're 624 00:32:35,280 --> 00:32:38,000 Speaker 3: going to criticize him when when he's not doing a 625 00:32:38,040 --> 00:32:40,920 Speaker 3: good job, I will say. 626 00:32:39,280 --> 00:32:43,560 Speaker 5: I think they think that they did their job. 627 00:32:44,160 --> 00:32:48,479 Speaker 2: The biggest political train wreck in American history, and they 628 00:32:48,520 --> 00:32:50,640 Speaker 2: were in it and it was like, I don't know 629 00:32:50,680 --> 00:32:51,280 Speaker 2: what to do? 630 00:32:51,640 --> 00:32:55,680 Speaker 1: How do you triage this? And so they got rid 631 00:32:55,760 --> 00:32:56,440 Speaker 1: of some of that. 632 00:32:56,840 --> 00:32:58,880 Speaker 2: I think if Joe Biden would have showed up jacked 633 00:32:58,960 --> 00:33:01,120 Speaker 2: up like you did at the say of the Union, 634 00:33:01,440 --> 00:33:03,080 Speaker 2: I think it would have been a completely different debate 635 00:33:03,160 --> 00:33:06,040 Speaker 2: from the moderators standpoint. But I think they saw what 636 00:33:06,120 --> 00:33:08,760 Speaker 2: everybody else saw, which was we have a present that 637 00:33:08,840 --> 00:33:11,680 Speaker 2: is incapacitated and the whole world is watching it now. 638 00:33:11,720 --> 00:33:13,280 Speaker 1: And no one can stop it. 639 00:33:13,600 --> 00:33:15,719 Speaker 2: There was no one to step in and lead him 640 00:33:15,760 --> 00:33:18,800 Speaker 2: off the stage like Barack Obama did two weeks ago, 641 00:33:18,840 --> 00:33:21,959 Speaker 2: Which brings me back to that question that everyone's asking, 642 00:33:22,840 --> 00:33:25,920 Speaker 2: how quickly will we find out if the conversations with 643 00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:28,440 Speaker 2: Joe Biden are going to work to get him to 644 00:33:28,440 --> 00:33:29,160 Speaker 2: step aside? 645 00:33:29,320 --> 00:33:30,680 Speaker 1: Number one? Okay? 646 00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:35,840 Speaker 2: And number two, how quickly do Democrats have to fall 647 00:33:35,920 --> 00:33:39,040 Speaker 2: back in line and stick with this guy if he 648 00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:41,720 Speaker 2: doesn't decide to step down. And those are the two 649 00:33:41,760 --> 00:33:44,040 Speaker 2: most important questions. Maybe the entire night. 650 00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:47,880 Speaker 3: Three weeks, twenty one days, this happens or doesn't happen. 651 00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:51,520 Speaker 3: In three weeks, I think you're going to have massive 652 00:33:51,600 --> 00:33:54,440 Speaker 3: chaos following this debate. You're going to have massive panic. 653 00:33:54,440 --> 00:33:56,320 Speaker 3: People are going to go to Michelle Obama. People are 654 00:33:56,320 --> 00:34:01,000 Speaker 3: going to go to Joe Biden. I don't think given 655 00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:06,040 Speaker 3: the train wreck that happened tonight, I don't think they'll 656 00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:08,680 Speaker 3: wait until after the Democrat Convention. I think they feel 657 00:34:08,719 --> 00:34:10,640 Speaker 3: a panic right now. I think they're going to want 658 00:34:10,680 --> 00:34:14,120 Speaker 3: Michelle Obama to be the keynote speaker at the Democrat Convention, 659 00:34:14,320 --> 00:34:16,560 Speaker 3: not Joe Biden. So I think we have twenty one 660 00:34:16,640 --> 00:34:19,759 Speaker 3: days for this to play out and look over the 661 00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:22,960 Speaker 3: course of the last year, I've handicapped this. I initially 662 00:34:23,040 --> 00:34:25,520 Speaker 3: laid it out as a possibility, then shifted as the 663 00:34:25,520 --> 00:34:28,759 Speaker 3: Democrats and the media we're starting to get nervous about 664 00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:31,640 Speaker 3: Joe Biden.
