1 00:00:01,280 --> 00:00:01,640 Speaker 1: Welcome. 2 00:00:01,680 --> 00:00:04,000 Speaker 2: It is the Ben Ferguson Podcasts and it is a 3 00:00:04,160 --> 00:00:07,400 Speaker 2: dual show with Senator Ted Cruz and I as we 4 00:00:07,720 --> 00:00:12,040 Speaker 2: just got finished watching the vice presidential debate. 5 00:00:12,520 --> 00:00:13,720 Speaker 1: Senator you just watched it. 6 00:00:13,760 --> 00:00:16,599 Speaker 2: We got to watch it together, you got to commentate 7 00:00:16,640 --> 00:00:21,200 Speaker 2: on Hannity afterwards. And your initial takeaway from this debate. 8 00:00:21,280 --> 00:00:22,960 Speaker 2: I thought JD had a pretty good night. 9 00:00:23,360 --> 00:00:26,680 Speaker 3: He had an excellent, excellent night. It is eleven five pm, 10 00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:29,120 Speaker 3: just after the debate. As you noted, I just finished 11 00:00:29,160 --> 00:00:33,159 Speaker 3: doing Hannity and talking about the debate. I think this 12 00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:36,000 Speaker 3: was a good night for America. The winner of the 13 00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:40,320 Speaker 3: debate tonight was Donald Trump. The loser of the debate 14 00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:45,000 Speaker 3: tonight was Kamala Harris. Both candidates I think did an 15 00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:48,600 Speaker 3: effective job. Tim Waltz was frankly better than I expected, 16 00:00:49,320 --> 00:00:52,720 Speaker 3: but he had a very difficult case to make because 17 00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:55,480 Speaker 3: his job was to defend Kamala Harris's record. And the 18 00:00:55,520 --> 00:00:57,920 Speaker 3: reason that I think it was such a good night 19 00:00:57,960 --> 00:00:59,959 Speaker 3: for Trump is I think JD did a good job 20 00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:06,200 Speaker 3: job of prosecuting Kamala Harris's actual record. She is desperately, desperately, 21 00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:08,680 Speaker 3: desperately trying to run away from her record. Trying to 22 00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:12,160 Speaker 3: hide in the basement. And tonight the contrast was made 23 00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:16,080 Speaker 3: between the incredible successes on the border, on the economy, 24 00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:19,240 Speaker 3: on foreign policy under Donald Trump as compared to the 25 00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:22,600 Speaker 3: incredible failures on the border, on the economy, on foreign 26 00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:26,800 Speaker 3: policy under Kamala Harris and and and that stark divide 27 00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:32,640 Speaker 3: was there. I think Tim Waltz tried mightily to pretend 28 00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:35,480 Speaker 3: the record didn't exist. But but but there were some 29 00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:39,800 Speaker 3: rough moments because he couldn't deny reality. And and and 30 00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:43,400 Speaker 3: it really goes to the to the fundamental core conceit 31 00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:46,200 Speaker 3: of the Kamala Harris campaign, which is she is trying 32 00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:50,920 Speaker 3: to live in this alternate reality where she is the 33 00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:55,720 Speaker 3: change candidate and Donald J. Trump is the incumbent president, 34 00:01:55,760 --> 00:01:58,520 Speaker 3: and that is not in fact the planet on which 35 00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:01,120 Speaker 3: we live. And and I think JD did a good 36 00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:04,000 Speaker 3: job multiple times of saying, gosh, if she has all 37 00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:07,120 Speaker 3: these policy proposals, why isn't she doing any of them now? 38 00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:08,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, for the last three and a half years. 39 00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:12,040 Speaker 3: And Walt's has no answer to that other than well, well, 40 00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:14,480 Speaker 3: what's happening now isn't working, So that's the problem. 41 00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:17,240 Speaker 2: There was one funny part of the debate that I laughed, 42 00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:19,880 Speaker 2: And it was when he was talking about how none 43 00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:23,400 Speaker 2: of the wall was actually built, and then it was 44 00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:25,320 Speaker 2: like he realized, oh wait, maybe I don't want to 45 00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:27,640 Speaker 2: go that far with this point, because she's got an 46 00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:30,120 Speaker 2: ad out showing down on Trump's wall, and he was 47 00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:31,480 Speaker 2: like he kind of backpedaled on. 48 00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:33,320 Speaker 1: He's like, well, you guys didn't build much of that wall. 49 00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:36,320 Speaker 2: It's like, well, now, didn't she just say, didn't know 50 00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:38,880 Speaker 2: you're here to represent just say we got to have 51 00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:40,400 Speaker 2: a secure border, build a wall. 52 00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:44,400 Speaker 3: Well, and you could tell that Waltz was uncomfortable defending 53 00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:47,680 Speaker 3: Kamala's record because he kept trying to go back to 54 00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:49,880 Speaker 3: Minnesota over and over, getting yeah, look at what I've 55 00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:51,880 Speaker 3: done in Minnesota. Look at what I've done in Minnesota. 56 00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:54,880 Speaker 3: It's like, wait a second, you're not the candidate for president, 57 00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:58,120 Speaker 3: Kamala Harris say is. She's been the vice president. And 58 00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:02,560 Speaker 3: I thought in particular, the strongest moments of the debate 59 00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:07,720 Speaker 3: were on economics and the impact for working men and women, 60 00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:11,040 Speaker 3: that that just people's lives are harder, that the cost 61 00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:13,160 Speaker 3: of everything has gone up, the cost of food, the 62 00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:17,560 Speaker 3: cost of healthcare, the cost of UH gasoline, and I 63 00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:21,840 Speaker 3: thought on the cost of housing, I think jd Vance 64 00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:23,480 Speaker 3: made a good point of Look eleven and a half 65 00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:25,520 Speaker 3: million illegal immigrants, do you think that's driving up the 66 00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:29,320 Speaker 3: cost of housing? And I will say two of the 67 00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:33,200 Speaker 3: losers tonight were sitting in the moderator chairs and and 68 00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:35,760 Speaker 3: and that they they seem to be trying to topple 69 00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:40,160 Speaker 3: prior moderators for for the biggest partisan hacks of a debate. 70 00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:45,000 Speaker 3: I thought CBS's moderators, Nora O'Donnell and Margaret Brennan did 71 00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:48,960 Speaker 3: did a terrible job. Uh, there is not a person 72 00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:51,840 Speaker 3: in the universe who watched this debate who has any 73 00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:56,800 Speaker 3: doubt either one of them is like that, none whatsoever. 74 00:03:56,960 --> 00:03:59,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, there, And the best part was you and I 75 00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:01,280 Speaker 2: were watching together, and it's fun to watch these things 76 00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:03,280 Speaker 2: together because I was sitting there. And one of the 77 00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:04,840 Speaker 2: things that made me laugh was when they did their 78 00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:07,040 Speaker 2: hands off to each other. It was like, thinking, we 79 00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:08,480 Speaker 2: have to make we have so many important they think 80 00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:09,520 Speaker 2: you to back over to you. 81 00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:11,680 Speaker 1: It was like I was watching Anchorman. 82 00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:14,640 Speaker 2: Outtakes and it was like, we are so official journalistic 83 00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:17,599 Speaker 2: here and we're going to be wonky. And then they 84 00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:21,240 Speaker 2: would immediately go back in their hardest in their partisan hackery, 85 00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:23,680 Speaker 2: which was when they muted him. 86 00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:25,720 Speaker 3: Yes, no, no, that was wow. 87 00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:26,919 Speaker 1: That really was the moment. 88 00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:29,560 Speaker 2: I tweeted, I said, when that happened, I tweeted, I 89 00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:33,680 Speaker 2: was like in communist countries they mute microphones. They just 90 00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:36,280 Speaker 2: did it during the Vice president of debate that if 91 00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:38,960 Speaker 2: you want to know if the state sponsored media, Yeah, 92 00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 2: they just did it. 93 00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:43,279 Speaker 3: I really was waiting for them. You know, you made 94 00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:45,400 Speaker 3: the Acreman equip as We're watching the debate, and I 95 00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:47,360 Speaker 3: was really waiting for one of them to lean over 96 00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:51,680 Speaker 3: as Ron Burgundy and say, screw you, Sandiago and I'm 97 00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:53,760 Speaker 3: cleaning the language up a little bit from the actual 98 00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:58,560 Speaker 3: line of the movie. But but it was number one stilted, 99 00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:03,919 Speaker 3: their mom rating number two. It was incredibly smarmy and condescending. 100 00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:07,039 Speaker 3: Your entire attitude is we know better than all of you. 101 00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:08,839 Speaker 3: And by the way, the things they interrupted, they were 102 00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:11,360 Speaker 3: supposed to not do fact checks. When they did do them, 103 00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:15,760 Speaker 3: they were wrong and they were completely self satisfied. And 104 00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:21,320 Speaker 3: the moment when they cut off JD Vance's microphone was pitiful. 105 00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:25,760 Speaker 3: It was nakedly biased. It was hackery. It was nothing 106 00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:29,520 Speaker 3: but partisan hackery, and I think CBS really got a 107 00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:30,039 Speaker 3: black eye. 108 00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:32,640 Speaker 2: I think that could hurt them for real when it 109 00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:35,000 Speaker 2: comes to people watching, and it's really hard to defend 110 00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:37,360 Speaker 2: that they were nonpartisan when they did that. Now, let 111 00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:40,960 Speaker 2: me tell you about our friends real quick at Patriot Mobile. Americans. 112 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:43,240 Speaker 2: If you're like me, you are sick and tired and 113 00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:47,400 Speaker 2: frustrated by a stalling economy. You're frustrated by inflation, You're 114 00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:50,000 Speaker 2: in frustrated by the endless wars of the left and 115 00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:55,719 Speaker 2: the relentless assault on our American values. There are major 116 00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:59,680 Speaker 2: companies that you were giving your money to you every 117 00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:02,800 Speaker 2: month with your cell phone service, Big Mobile, that are 118 00:06:02,839 --> 00:06:06,920 Speaker 2: actually helping these things to happen. How because they give 119 00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:13,120 Speaker 2: massive donations to democratic causes candidates, including Harris, including Biden, 120 00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:16,200 Speaker 2: including Obama. The list goes on and on, and they 121 00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:21,719 Speaker 2: give money to organizations that pay for abortions. If you 122 00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:24,360 Speaker 2: don't want your money going there, you need to switch 123 00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:29,520 Speaker 2: to Patriot Mobile. Because Patriot Mobile was created after there 124 00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:31,400 Speaker 2: was a group of conservatives that found out just how 125 00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:34,720 Speaker 2: radical Big Mobile had gotten, and they believe in America, 126 00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:37,400 Speaker 2: in our constitution.

But he 155 00:08:01,640 --> 00:08:04,600 Speaker 2: also didn't know what to do because there's a hard 156 00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:08,560 Speaker 2: part of the Democratic Party, especially him in Minnesota, with 157 00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:12,680 Speaker 2: the extremists there that hate Israel and they're the ones 158 00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:15,440 Speaker 2: that are protesting and supporting the terrorists. And when he 159 00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:17,200 Speaker 2: came out, he had a little bit of an oops 160 00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:18,480 Speaker 2: listen carefully. 161 00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:23,600 Speaker 4: I ran our Israel's ability to be able to defend 162 00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:29,080 Speaker 4: itself is absolutely fundamental getting its hostages back It's hostages. 163 00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:30,800 Speaker 2: I was like, come on, man, you got to do 164 00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:33,040 Speaker 2: a little bit better than this. But it tells you 165 00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:35,200 Speaker 2: where the Democratic Party is right now. They don't want 166 00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:37,640 Speaker 2: to come out and defend Israel too much, but they 167 00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:39,760 Speaker 2: know they have to defend him on the face tonight. 168 00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:42,400 Speaker 1: And it was this weird, awkward moment for him. 169 00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:46,800 Speaker 3: Well, and look, he had a talking point that was 170 00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:51,160 Speaker 3: written for him for his handlers, by his handlers, that 171 00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:54,160 Speaker 3: was to say, Israel has a right to defend itself 172 00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:56,920 Speaker 3: and the hostages should be returned. And so those are 173 00:08:56,920 --> 00:08:59,319 Speaker 3: the two sentences he was told to say. And then 174 00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:02,160 Speaker 3: he immediately said, but we have to address the humanitarian 175 00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:04,839 Speaker 3: crisis in Gaza, because that's really what the Democrat Party 176 00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:08,360 Speaker 3: is worried about, is that too many Hamas and Hezbela 177 00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:10,920 Speaker 3: terrorists are being killed. And so he had to throw 178 00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:13,440 Speaker 3: that in. What he didn't say, you know what, he 179 00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:17,480 Speaker 3: didn't say a word about Iran attacking Israel, firing, not 180 00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:22,400 Speaker 3: a word at Israel. Look, Iran just just just pummeled 181 00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:25,719 Speaker 3: Israel with missiles and that is a major escalation. Now 182 00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:28,719 Speaker 3: Iran has been funding Hamas and funding Hesbel that's been 183 00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:33,120 Speaker 3: fighting through proxies, but this is now Iran directly attacking Israel. 184 00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:37,280 Speaker 3: And the question he was asked is would he support 185 00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:42,360 Speaker 3: Israel striking back? And you know what he didn't answer. 186 00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:44,880 Speaker 3: He did not want to answer. He did not want 187 00:09:44,920 --> 00:09:50,480 Speaker 3: to answer at all. And and you know, critically the 188 00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:57,520 Speaker 3: opening of his answer. Tim Waltz's answer was this crisis 189 00:09:57,520 --> 00:10:02,960 Speaker 3: began on October seventh. Well, that's actually wrong. This crisis 190 00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:06,240 Speaker 3: began in January of twenty twenty one, when Joe Biden 191 00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:09,440 Speaker 3: and Kamala Harris came in. Yeah, when they began flooding 192 00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:14,480 Speaker 3: one hundred billion dollars to Iran, that's when the crisis. 193 00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:16,880 Speaker 3: And by the way, when they came in, remember what 194 00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:22,160 Speaker 3: was happening. Just weeks before, we had peace flourishing in 195 00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:24,880 Speaker 3: the Middle East. We had the Abraham Accords signed on 196 00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:27,000 Speaker 3: the south lawn of the White House. I was there 197 00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:29,120 Speaker 3: for the signing of the Abraham Accords. You know what, 198 00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:32,040 Speaker 3: not a single Democrat showed up for the signing of 199 00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:34,800 Speaker 3: the Abraham Accords, not a single Democrat Senator, not a 200 00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:36,200 Speaker 3: single Democrat House member. 201 00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:38,880 Speaker 2: I did not realize that none of them showed up. 202 00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:41,280 Speaker 2: And that was the deal that dealt with the word 203 00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:42,520 Speaker 2: their obsessed with, which is peace? 204 00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:47,280 Speaker 3: Right, Yes, it was. It was historic peace. It was 205 00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:51,520 Speaker 3: the Arabs and the Israelis coming together and signing historic 206 00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:55,520 Speaker 3: peace accords. And not only did no Democrats sign up 207 00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:57,560 Speaker 3: at the signing end. Do you know what Joe Biden 208 00:10:57,679 --> 00:11:01,559 Speaker 3: Kamala Harris instructed the State Department what was that? In writing? 209 00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:03,880 Speaker 3: They said you were not allowed to use the words 210 00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:08,079 Speaker 3: Abraham accurts don't even call them what they were called. 211 00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:12,160 Speaker 3: They were instructed to call them normalization agreements, but do 212 00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:17,440 Speaker 3: not use apparently acknowledging Father Abraham as too much and 213 00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:19,920 Speaker 3: anything that Trump did they were not allowed to make 214 00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:23,640 Speaker 3: reference to. But explicitly, the State Department was instructed, don't 215 00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:26,040 Speaker 3: use the words Abraham a courts. So we went from 216 00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:31,480 Speaker 3: historic peace, the first peace agreements signed between Israelis and 217 00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:37,560 Speaker 3: Arabs in four decades to suddenly Joe Biden Kamala Harris 218 00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:40,880 Speaker 3: come in and they start flooding cash into Iran, and 219 00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:44,840 Speaker 3: Iran starts flooding cash into Hamas and Hesbela that paid 220 00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:49,120 Speaker 3: for the death squads on October seventh, and Tim Waltz 221 00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:50,960 Speaker 3: had not a word to say about that, not a 222 00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:54,640 Speaker 3: word to say about thee hundred billion dollars that Kamala 223 00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:57,280 Speaker 3: Harris gave as a gift to Iran. And you know 224 00:11:57,320 --> 00:12:02,800 Speaker 3: what is still giving today today Joe Biden and Kamala 225 00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:06,400 Speaker 3: Harris still refuse to enforce the oil sanctions against Iran. 226 00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:09,960 Speaker 3: They are literally funding the missiles that were fired on 227 00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:13,400 Speaker 3: Iran today. In a very real sense, Kamala Harris paid 228 00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:14,120 Speaker 3: for those missiles. 229 00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:14,760 Speaker 1: It's shocking. 230 00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:16,800 Speaker 2: Also, the media when you're watching this. They didn't ask 231 00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:20,160 Speaker 2: about sanctions. They also didn't ask about hearers and what 232 00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:23,040 Speaker 2: the response should be from this administration, right because she's. 233 00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:27,240 Speaker 3: In the administer. To be fair, they did. Their question was, 234 00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:30,880 Speaker 3: would you support a preemptive strike by Israel against Iran? 235 00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:33,720 Speaker 3: And now it's not actually preempted because it is in 236 00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:38,280 Speaker 3: responsevery attack, So the word preemptive is a loaded lefty word. 237 00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:41,680 Speaker 3: It's not preemptive if you're defending yourself after you've been attacked. 238 00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:45,880 Speaker 3: But that was the question they asked, and to be clear, 239 00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:48,680 Speaker 3: when asked, would you support it? Kamala is the sitting VP, 240 00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:52,040 Speaker 3: and we know Joe Biden is non COMPASSMENTUS. I don't 241 00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:53,760 Speaker 3: know if he's passed out on the beach in Delaware 242 00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:54,600 Speaker 3: or what he's doing. 243 00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:58,040 Speaker 2: But he didn't spend almost two hours on the phone, 244 00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:01,920 Speaker 2: he said this weekend talking about hurricane stuff. Almost two hours. Well, 245 00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:04,160 Speaker 2: you know, and look, that's a lot of time for him. 246 00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:06,560 Speaker 3: I believe that because when my girls were young, we 247 00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:08,480 Speaker 3: had an app on the phone that was the wheels 248 00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:10,480 Speaker 3: on the bus go round and round. And I believe 249 00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:13,680 Speaker 3: he spent two hours on the phone, perhaps with an 250 00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:14,160 Speaker 3: app like. 251 00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:16,520 Speaker 2: That, but the question that they should have asked was, 252 00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:18,600 Speaker 2: are you, guys, what would you do differently? What would 253 00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:21,480 Speaker 2: you advocate for? What would you support sanctions? I mean 254 00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:23,840 Speaker 2: you and I talked about this in our show on Monday. 255 00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:26,680 Speaker 2: There was if and correct me if my numbers are wrong, 256 00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:31,199 Speaker 2: but I'm quoting you. It was three hundred thousand barrels 257 00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:33,240 Speaker 2: a day is what a RAM was producing when Trump 258 00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:33,800 Speaker 2: was in office. 259 00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:36,320 Speaker 1: It's now two million barrels. 260 00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:39,800 Speaker 3: Well, and I wish JD had provided more specifics on that. 261 00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:43,000 Speaker 3: That answer could have been tighter with more facts on it. 262 00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:47,320 Speaker 2: And it tells you like and the question I wish 263 00:13:47,360 --> 00:13:49,760 Speaker 2: they would have asked them is both them like, hey guys, 264 00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:53,199 Speaker 2: are you would you right now? Should there move more 265 00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:56,960 Speaker 2: sanctions or should they be enforcing the sanctions? Or even 266 00:13:57,000 --> 00:13:59,720 Speaker 2: the question, hey, why is your running mate Kamala Harris 267 00:13:59,800 --> 00:14:02,000 Speaker 2: not doing more to enforce the sanctions. 268 00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:04,200 Speaker 3: There to stop I ran from murdering Donald Trump? 269 00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:06,400 Speaker 2: Yes, And that didn't come up tonight, which I was 270 00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:09,240 Speaker 2: also shocked by because we talked about this again in 271 00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:14,800 Speaker 2: Monday's pod. You have a RAN that's funding and recruiting 272 00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:19,280 Speaker 2: assassins a takeout Donald Trump and other former leaders in 273 00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:22,640 Speaker 2: our government and as they're doing that, no one asked 274 00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:23,640 Speaker 2: that question tonight. 275 00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:27,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, look at it now. I will say a point 276 00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:30,560 Speaker 3: that Jad made on this that was very effective is 277 00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:32,080 Speaker 3: when he looked at the camera and he asked the 278 00:14:32,120 --> 00:14:36,560 Speaker 3: American people, he said, think back in your lifetime, what 279 00:14:36,800 --> 00:14:41,720 Speaker 3: president has not had a major military conflict during his presidency? 280 00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:44,520 Speaker 3: And he said, I'm forty years old, and there's only 281 00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:47,680 Speaker 3: one president that you could answer yes to, and that 282 00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:49,080 Speaker 3: is Donald J. Trump. 283 00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:49,600 Speaker 1: Yeah. 284 00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:51,840 Speaker 3: That was a very effective point, and I think it 285 00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:55,440 Speaker 3: probably made some people think. And Waltz had no response 286 00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:57,800 Speaker 3: to that other than well, well, but you know, I 287 00:14:57,840 --> 00:15:00,320 Speaker 3: don't like Trump and other people don't like Trump. But 288 00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:05,320 Speaker 3: the simple point that we had peace when Trump was 289 00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:09,120 Speaker 3: president and we now have war, not just in Israel 290 00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:11,560 Speaker 3: but in Ukraine. When you have a week in an 291 00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:14,840 Speaker 3: effective commander in chief, that contrast was pretty stark. 292 00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:17,480 Speaker 2: I also thought there was another narrative tonight that really 293 00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:19,960 Speaker 2: got blown up, and that was the obsession by the 294 00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:23,920 Speaker 2: media to label jd Vance's strange or weird. 295 00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:25,880 Speaker 1: He's a weird guy's odd. 296 00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:30,120 Speaker 2: I think he came across as very likable, very normal, 297 00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:34,080 Speaker 2: came across as a dad and I think that also 298 00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:36,240 Speaker 2: could help Donald Trump significantly. 299 00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:38,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, no, look, I think that's right. And I 300 00:15:38,960 --> 00:15:42,320 Speaker 3: will say one of the things that surprised me. I 301 00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:45,200 Speaker 3: thought this debate was going to be nasty. You and 302 00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:47,160 Speaker 3: I both said that before. You were like, dude, they 303 00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:48,640 Speaker 3: don't like each other. We both knew that, but I 304 00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:50,600 Speaker 3: thought it was going to be nasty too. Look, my 305 00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:53,560 Speaker 3: sense is that they really dislike each other, although to 306 00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:55,320 Speaker 3: be fair, I haven't talked to JD about that, so 307 00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:59,040 Speaker 3: I don't know firsthand from him. It just the appearance 308 00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:01,840 Speaker 3: from the media and the general milieu, as it appears 309 00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:04,880 Speaker 3: that neither one of them likes each other. And so 310 00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:07,920 Speaker 3: I thought, you know, I'd used an analogy that are 311 00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:09,480 Speaker 3: going to be rolling around in the mud. This is 312 00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:12,280 Speaker 3: gonna be a mud wrestling match, and it wasn't. And 313 00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:17,280 Speaker 3: both of them, neither of them had even a single 314 00:16:17,440 --> 00:16:20,960 Speaker 3: really nasty line, which which is a little surprising. If 315 00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:24,080 Speaker 3: you'd asked me to bet beforehand, I would have I 316 00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:26,280 Speaker 3: would have bet it's more likely that they each had 317 00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:30,080 Speaker 3: a dozen nasty lines at each other than Nero and IT, 318 00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:33,920 Speaker 3: And in fact, both of them more than once praised 319 00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:39,080 Speaker 3: the other one, which was an interesting. I don't know 320 00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:41,640 Speaker 3: if that how much of that was genuine, how much 321 00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:44,880 Speaker 3: of that was strategic, how much of the campaign said, Look, 322 00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:47,200 Speaker 3: your job is to be likable and relatable. 323 00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:50,680 Speaker 1: But but and if it was, it was a great strategy. 324 00:16:50,840 --> 00:16:54,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, And and both did so multiple times said said, 325 00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:57,440 Speaker 3: you know, look when when Tim Waltz described how his 326 00:16:57,520 --> 00:17:01,240 Speaker 3: son had witnessed a shooting and which which I didn't 327 00:17:01,280 --> 00:17:03,160 Speaker 3: know either, and that's that's horrific. You and I are 328 00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:07,240 Speaker 3: both dads, certainly wouldn't want our kids to see a shooting. 329 00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:10,840 Speaker 3: And I thought, JD when it came back and said, hey, 330 00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:12,920 Speaker 3: I didn't know your son had done I'm really sorry. 331 00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:16,480 Speaker 3: That's that's like horrible one, no one, that's horrible. That 332 00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:18,719 Speaker 3: was real and genuine, And I thought, and there were 333 00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:20,800 Speaker 3: moments back and forth for both of them like that. 334 00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:23,280 Speaker 2: When you look at how this played out tonight, You 335 00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:25,520 Speaker 2: and I have said this before, and you go back 336 00:17:25,560 --> 00:17:30,880 Speaker 2: in history. VP debates don't really usually matter. Does it 337 00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:32,679 Speaker 2: matter a little bit more this time? 338 00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:34,840 Speaker 1: Do you think? Because there was only one present debate? 339 00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:35,680 Speaker 1: Number one and two? 340 00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:39,840 Speaker 2: Because if Donald Trump is he's running for four years, right, 341 00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:43,760 Speaker 2: there's no chance in eight years here? Does that change 342 00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:45,800 Speaker 2: the perception of voters as well. 343 00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:51,240 Speaker 3: Look damned if I know, I will say I think 344 00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:53,800 Speaker 3: this probably mattered. At the end of the day. Historically, 345 00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:58,560 Speaker 3: VP debates don't matter much. If you think back to 346 00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:03,439 Speaker 3: to VP debates about the only time, I'm willing to 347 00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:06,639 Speaker 3: guess you could only remember one moment two moments from 348 00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:09,800 Speaker 3: VP debates, you probably remember the fly landing on Mike 349 00:18:09,880 --> 00:18:10,880 Speaker 3: Pence's head. 350 00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:13,000 Speaker 1: And that will be seared into my brain forever. 351 00:18:13,119 --> 00:18:15,440 Speaker 3: Yes, especially since Saturday Night Live had a giant fly 352 00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:16,520 Speaker 3: and then they did a good job. 353 00:18:16,560 --> 00:18:17,480 Speaker 1: They did a great job with that. 354 00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:20,840 Speaker 3: But the only line I bet you you can quote, 355 00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:23,280 Speaker 3: and you're about as much of a political junkie as anyone, 356 00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:25,280 Speaker 3: is the only line I bet you you can quote 357 00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:29,000 Speaker 3: is Lloyd Benson to Dan Quayle saying I knew Jack Kennedy. 358 00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:31,760 Speaker 3: Jack Kennedy was my friend. Yeah, And Senator you're no. 359 00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:35,679 Speaker 2: Jude Kennedy bingo, and that that was a damn line, 360 00:18:35,720 --> 00:18:37,920 Speaker 2: And that was that was what was that eighty eight 361 00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:38,680 Speaker 2: or nineth. 362 00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:42,560 Speaker 3: That was it was? It was Ducaccus Benson eighty eight. 363 00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:45,160 Speaker 3: And by the way, Dan Quayle and George Bush won, 364 00:18:45,200 --> 00:18:48,560 Speaker 3: So it didn't change the outcoming election. It did kind 365 00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:52,000 Speaker 3: of sear in public consciousness. That was one of the 366 00:18:52,040 --> 00:18:55,520 Speaker 3: moments where where the caricature of Quail is a lightweight, 367 00:18:55,600 --> 00:18:58,880 Speaker 3: that that line. 368 00:18:57,960 --> 00:18:58,520 Speaker 1: It hurt him. 369 00:18:58,560 --> 00:19:04,879 Speaker 3: It was clearly rehearsed, It was landed very effectively, which 370 00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:08,280 Speaker 3: is why three decades later we're talking about it. 371 00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:08,600 Speaker 1: Yeah. 372 00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:11,400 Speaker 2: And it was also I think to find Dan Quail 373 00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:14,600 Speaker 2: as a candidate on his own yeap, which was sad well. 374 00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:17,439 Speaker 3: And and and the reason it was prepared is because 375 00:19:17,520 --> 00:19:20,080 Speaker 3: Quail had been using as a talking point, you know, 376 00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:22,919 Speaker 3: I'm the same age Jack Kennedy was because he was 377 00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:25,880 Speaker 3: trying to say I'm not inexperienced, and he. 378 00:19:25,840 --> 00:19:28,439 Speaker 1: Looked young if you remember, he looked really look he 379 00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:29,040 Speaker 1: was twenty six. 380 00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:32,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, and it was Benson was very able to deliver 381 00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:37,040 Speaker 3: that line. And it was but historically VP debates have 382 00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:40,680 Speaker 3: not moved votes one way or the other. I will 383 00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:44,879 Speaker 3: say I was glad so for most of the debate, 384 00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:49,560 Speaker 3: JD remembered that his target was Kamala Harrison, not Tim Waaltz. 385 00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:53,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, he said that a lot. He used her name 386 00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:53,679 Speaker 2: a lot. 387 00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:56,159 Speaker 3: And in fact, one of the better moments, and I 388 00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:58,240 Speaker 3: want you to play this clip is it is where 389 00:19:58,320 --> 00:20:01,679 Speaker 3: JD said said to t Waltz, said, You've got a 390 00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:03,919 Speaker 3: really tough job. I feel bad for how tough a 391 00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:06,560 Speaker 3: job you have. And it was sort of it was 392 00:20:06,680 --> 00:20:09,520 Speaker 3: damning him with faint praise because it was a backheaded 393 00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:11,959 Speaker 3: shot at Kamala or play that exchange. 394 00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:15,280 Speaker 2: But first, in light of a RAN's ballistic missile attack 395 00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:18,879 Speaker 2: against Israel that happened, there are so many of you 396 00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:21,800 Speaker 2: that I know are asking the question, how do you 397 00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:25,359 Speaker 2: help the people in Israel.

That's a coach general as he did. 437 00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:34,720 Speaker 3: So what Tim Waltz is doing. And I honestly, Tim, 438 00:22:34,880 --> 00:22:36,719 Speaker 3: I think you got a tough job here because you've 439 00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:37,800 Speaker 3: got to play whack a mole. 440 00:22:37,840 --> 00:22:40,600 Speaker 5: You've got to pretend that Donald Trump didn't deliver rising 441 00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:42,879 Speaker 5: take home pay, which of course he did. You've got 442 00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:46,160 Speaker 5: to pretend that Donald Trump didn't deliver lower inflation, which 443 00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:48,680 Speaker 5: of course he did. And then you simultaneously got to 444 00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:53,639 Speaker 5: defend Kamala Harris's atrocious economic record, which has made gas, groceries, 445 00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:57,359 Speaker 5: and housing unaffordable fair American citizens. I was raised by 446 00:22:57,400 --> 00:23:00,520 Speaker 5: a woman who would sometimes go into medical day so 447 00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:03,119 Speaker 5: that she could put food on the table in our household. 448 00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:05,800 Speaker 5: I know what it's like to not be able to 449 00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:08,200 Speaker 5: afford the things that you need to afford. We can 450 00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:10,919 Speaker 5: do so much better to all of you watching. We 451 00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:13,600 Speaker 5: can get back to an America that's affordable again. We 452 00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:16,280 Speaker 5: just got to get back to common sense economic principles. 453 00:23:16,359 --> 00:23:18,840 Speaker 4: I hope we have a conversation on healthcare. 454 00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:19,560 Speaker 1: Then Senator and governor. 455 00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:22,040 Speaker 3: Please, thank you, Margaret. We have a lot. 456 00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:24,359 Speaker 2: I love how they they jump in there, by the way, 457 00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:25,199 Speaker 2: thank you, thank you. 458 00:23:25,200 --> 00:23:27,080 Speaker 1: We gotta we got to move on from that real quick. 459 00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:29,080 Speaker 1: You just you just smacked him around a little bit. 460 00:23:30,080 --> 00:23:32,879 Speaker 3: Yeah. Look, I mean that they were They were eager 461 00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:36,720 Speaker 3: to help out Waltz. They were also on the fact checking. 462 00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:38,960 Speaker 3: You know, we talked about it at at the open 463 00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:43,360 Speaker 3: of the pod when they cut off JD's mike. Now 464 00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:47,480 Speaker 3: that was a moment when number one Kamala was getting 465 00:23:47,560 --> 00:23:52,280 Speaker 3: beat up hard on immigration. Yeah, but number two the 466 00:23:52,320 --> 00:23:56,119 Speaker 3: moderators jumped in and and JD talked about the Haitian 467 00:23:56,200 --> 00:24:00,959 Speaker 3: illegal immigrants who are in Springfield. Oh, and you know, 468 00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:03,640 Speaker 3: they wanted to reprise the whole cat thing. I was surprised. 469 00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:06,040 Speaker 3: I also, I would have lost a bet if you 470 00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:08,000 Speaker 3: had given me the odds on whether the word cat 471 00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:10,520 Speaker 3: would be said in the debate. I would have bet yes, 472 00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:12,199 Speaker 3: and I would have lost that bet. So so that 473 00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:15,719 Speaker 3: the moderators did not say that, nor did Tim Waltz. 474 00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:20,240 Speaker 3: But JD rightly said, look, this massive influx of illegal 475 00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:22,679 Speaker 3: aliens is putting an enormous burden on the residents of 476 00:24:22,680 --> 00:24:24,760 Speaker 3: Springfield and every other city in Ohio and every other 477 00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:29,120 Speaker 3: city in the country. And the moderators chimed into correct him, 478 00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:33,800 Speaker 3: well those are legal immigrants, and he said, blowney, yeah, 479 00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:37,639 Speaker 3: and this is a fiction. So look, we have a 480 00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:40,680 Speaker 3: legal immigration system, and what has happened is Joe Biden 481 00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:44,600 Speaker 3: and Kamala Harris have abused our immigration law. So the 482 00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:48,320 Speaker 3: three hundred thousand plus Haitians and Nicaraguans and Cubans and 483 00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:51,400 Speaker 3: Venezuelans they've flown in, they've flown in indo programs where 484 00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:53,399 Speaker 3: they say, well, these guys are all now legal just 485 00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:56,199 Speaker 3: because we've decided to open the doors and call everyone 486 00:24:56,240 --> 00:24:59,000 Speaker 3: we let in legal. That is not legal in any 487 00:24:59,119 --> 00:25:02,960 Speaker 3: ordinary sense. They are illegal immigrants. And in particular, JD 488 00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:06,240 Speaker 3: rightly talks about the app CBP one, which we've talked 489 00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:10,080 Speaker 3: about on this podcast before, an app for illegal immigrants 490 00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:12,480 Speaker 3: to apply online for Kamala Harris to let him in 491 00:25:12,480 --> 00:25:13,159 Speaker 3: our open border. 492 00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:15,479 Speaker 1: And they did not like him saying this because it 493 00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:16,560 Speaker 1: was fact checking them. 494 00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:19,679 Speaker 3: It was they were fact checking him. They were wrong, 495 00:25:20,160 --> 00:25:22,520 Speaker 3: he countered him, and then they cut off his mic 496 00:25:23,400 --> 00:25:26,359 Speaker 3: right when when when Tim Waltz was saying, well, well, 497 00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:28,600 Speaker 3: you know this has been around for years.

No, CBP one 529 00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:07,320 Speaker 3: is not the legal process.

No, you were shutting 538 00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:31,840 Speaker 2: down jd Vance, who was fact checking. 539 00:27:31,560 --> 00:27:33,280 Speaker 3: You and pointing out that she was lying. 540 00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:34,919 Speaker 1: And pointing out she design we got to move on. 541 00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:36,080 Speaker 1: We have other important things. 542 00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:37,959 Speaker 2: And by the way, I promise you that moment if 543 00:27:37,960 --> 00:27:40,720 Speaker 2: you pulled the audience in America watching, they would have 544 00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:41,920 Speaker 2: loved to have heard what JD. 545 00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:42,520 Speaker 1: Van said. 546 00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:44,560 Speaker 2: Like course you would have been like, boh, I want 547 00:27:44,560 --> 00:27:47,159 Speaker 2: to hear this right, Like wait, give me a second. 548 00:27:47,680 --> 00:27:50,560 Speaker 3: That's absolutely right, But CBS didn't want the audience to 549 00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:53,119 Speaker 3: hear that. You know, there was another moment on the 550 00:27:53,160 --> 00:27:57,080 Speaker 3: same topic of the border where Tim Waltz said the 551 00:27:57,119 --> 00:28:01,840 Speaker 3: most brazen lie of the entire devay and when when 552 00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:04,840 Speaker 3: Waltz was back pedaling and trying to defend the disaster 553 00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:09,760 Speaker 3: of Kamala's open borders, Tim Waltz said, quote, border crossings 554 00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:15,440 Speaker 3: are down compared to when Donald Trump left office. Yeah, now, 555 00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:17,439 Speaker 3: which is a lie. And you and I both are 556 00:28:17,440 --> 00:28:20,840 Speaker 3: looking at the TV like that's not true. That that 557 00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:25,040 Speaker 3: is not slightly true. It's not kind of true. It's 558 00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:27,040 Speaker 3: not in any way. And let me give you the stats. 559 00:28:27,040 --> 00:28:31,919 Speaker 3: So in December twenty twenty, the total encounters with illegals 560 00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:36,320 Speaker 3: was eighty nine thousand and seventy two. In August twenty 561 00:28:36,359 --> 00:28:40,560 Speaker 3: twenty four, the total encounters was one hundred and fifty 562 00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:43,880 Speaker 3: eighty nine hundred and eighty eight, so it was nearly 563 00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:46,680 Speaker 3: twice as many. And and mind you look, there's been 564 00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:50,280 Speaker 3: a slight dip in the last couple of months because 565 00:28:50,640 --> 00:28:52,760 Speaker 3: Biden and Harris are trying to pretend to do something 566 00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:56,080 Speaker 3: about the border, and they're just doing it as electioneering. 567 00:28:56,240 --> 00:28:59,360 Speaker 3: And to put it in, in all of fiscal year 568 00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:02,080 Speaker 3: twenty twenty, do you know how many encounters with illegals 569 00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:04,960 Speaker 3: there were under Trump? How many six hundred and forty six, 570 00:29:05,400 --> 00:29:06,480 Speaker 3: eight hundred and twenty. 571 00:29:06,280 --> 00:29:09,200 Speaker 1: Two that's like a month in this administration. 572 00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:11,600 Speaker 3: In fiscal year twenty four year to date, and by 573 00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:13,400 Speaker 3: the way, we're not all the way through twenty four. 574 00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:16,680 Speaker 3: Do you know how many there're been? How many two million, 575 00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:19,320 Speaker 3: seven hundred and fifty six thousand, six hundred and forty six. 576 00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:20,080 Speaker 1: Yeah. 577 00:29:20,240 --> 00:29:25,440 Speaker 3: And by the way, these these brave fact checkers, did 578 00:29:25,440 --> 00:29:29,200 Speaker 3: you notice the CBS cut off anybody. They say, wait 579 00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:32,800 Speaker 3: a second, Governor, you just said that border encounters were 580 00:29:32,920 --> 00:29:37,480 Speaker 3: lower now than they were under Trump. That is flat 581 00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:41,400 Speaker 3: out false. They didn't say that because they're not in 582 00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:43,320 Speaker 3: the business of fact checking Democrats. 583 00:29:43,520 --> 00:29:46,080 Speaker 2: Well, and they also didn't bring up something else that 584 00:29:46,480 --> 00:29:49,360 Speaker 2: I actually thought there's a missopportunity. I think JD had 585 00:29:49,360 --> 00:29:51,200 Speaker 2: a great night, but I wish you would have seized 586 00:29:51,240 --> 00:29:56,160 Speaker 2: on this the acting ICE Director put out all of 587 00:29:56,200 --> 00:29:59,080 Speaker 2: these numbers that we've talked about here, Yes, about the 588 00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:01,400 Speaker 2: number of rapists, yes, that were let go that we 589 00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:04,360 Speaker 2: knew were rapists, the number of murderers that were let go, 590 00:30:04,640 --> 00:30:06,600 Speaker 2: and the number of those that had been charged with 591 00:30:06,640 --> 00:30:09,640 Speaker 2: Haines's crimes, and we still let go into this country. 592 00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:12,640 Speaker 1: And that didn't see the light of day tonight. 593 00:30:12,760 --> 00:30:15,440 Speaker 2: And it's again it goes back to the moderators, like, 594 00:30:15,480 --> 00:30:18,560 Speaker 2: it's shame on them for not actually talking about the 595 00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:21,320 Speaker 2: Acting ICE Director saying this when they're going to talk 596 00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:23,200 Speaker 2: about the border, how do you talk about the border 597 00:30:23,200 --> 00:30:23,560 Speaker 2: without that? 598 00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:24,320 Speaker 1: But I do. 599 00:30:24,600 --> 00:30:27,760 Speaker 2: And again it's debating's tough, and I want to be clear, 600 00:30:27,800 --> 00:30:30,680 Speaker 2: it's tough, But there was a missed opportunity there. I'm 601 00:30:30,840 --> 00:30:33,160 Speaker 2: shocked that JAD didn't really try to hammer that that 602 00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:33,720 Speaker 2: point home. 603 00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:36,360 Speaker 3: Yeah. Look, look, I think JD did a very good 604 00:30:36,440 --> 00:30:41,120 Speaker 3: job tonight. I was surprised that the thirteen thousand convicted 605 00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:44,480 Speaker 3: murderers did not come up. It's such a powerful number 606 00:30:45,080 --> 00:30:48,120 Speaker 3: and CBS hasn't covered it, the news hasn't covered it, 607 00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:52,520 Speaker 3: And so this debate was an opportunity for That's actually 608 00:30:52,600 --> 00:30:56,320 Speaker 3: something that I wish that like it had been slowly 609 00:30:56,480 --> 00:30:59,400 Speaker 3: explained that they'd taken a little bit of time. You 610 00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:03,880 Speaker 3: need to unders stand that right now today there are 611 00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:09,880 Speaker 3: more than thirteen thousand illegal aliens who are free, who 612 00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:15,520 Speaker 3: have not been apprehended, who are convicted murderers. There is 613 00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:20,560 Speaker 3: nothing whatsoever stopping Kamala Harris from picking up all thirteen 614 00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:24,880 Speaker 3: thousand of them tomorrow. Legally, she has every right to 615 00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:28,160 Speaker 3: do so. They are here illegally, they can be detained, 616 00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:30,880 Speaker 3: they can be deported. And yet and there are another 617 00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:38,280 Speaker 3: two thousand roughly illegal aliens who have pending murder charges, 618 00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:40,600 Speaker 3: so they're being charged with murder, and you know what, 619 00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:46,800 Speaker 3: they're free too. There is nothing zero preventing Kamala Harris 620 00:31:46,800 --> 00:31:48,840 Speaker 3: from picking up those two thousand. And I would have 621 00:31:48,840 --> 00:31:52,120 Speaker 3: loved to see JD turn to Tim Walts and say, Governor, 622 00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:56,960 Speaker 3: why doesn't Kamala Harris pick up those fifteen thousand murderers 623 00:31:57,200 --> 00:32:00,920 Speaker 3: right now? And what would you say to the mothers 624 00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:05,200 Speaker 3: of the children murdered by these illegal alien murderers that 625 00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:08,200 Speaker 3: you continue to allow on the street. Yeah, he wouldn't 626 00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:08,880 Speaker 3: have an answer to that. 627 00:32:09,080 --> 00:32:10,400 Speaker 1: No, he wouldn't have an answer to that. 628 00:32:10,440 --> 00:32:13,080 Speaker 2: And look again, like I said, debating is hard, and 629 00:32:13,120 --> 00:32:14,680 Speaker 2: I think one of the things that he did really 630 00:32:14,720 --> 00:32:18,880 Speaker 2: well was he talked about the fact that people are 631 00:32:18,920 --> 00:32:21,720 Speaker 2: suffering in this country because there's so many illegal immigrants, 632 00:32:21,760 --> 00:32:24,560 Speaker 2: and it backfired on CBS. They were talking about the 633 00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:27,080 Speaker 2: economy and they were talking about the housing crisis. It 634 00:32:27,240 --> 00:32:28,960 Speaker 2: was a little bit later in the debate. Many people, 635 00:32:28,960 --> 00:32:30,880 Speaker 2: if you didn't watch the whole debate, this was one 636 00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:33,880 Speaker 2: of those moments. I think they actually buried it on purpose. 637 00:32:34,240 --> 00:32:36,240 Speaker 2: They need to check a box, ask a question about 638 00:32:36,280 --> 00:32:39,160 Speaker 2: the about housing. But there was a moment there where 639 00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:41,600 Speaker 2: JD van sees on like, well, yeah, of course home 640 00:32:41,680 --> 00:32:42,360 Speaker 2: prices are going. 641 00:32:42,360 --> 00:32:42,760 Speaker 1: To be up. 642 00:32:43,160 --> 00:32:46,080 Speaker 2: You let fifteen to twenty million people in this country, 643 00:32:45,960 --> 00:32:48,040 Speaker 2: they got to have a roof over their head at night. 644 00:32:48,400 --> 00:32:52,000 Speaker 2: They're competing with you, especially for low cost housing and apartments, 645 00:32:52,080 --> 00:32:55,120 Speaker 2: which is skyrocket and price undoubtedly. 646 00:32:55,280 --> 00:32:58,720 Speaker 3: And CBS really beclowned themselves on this because because one 647 00:32:58,760 --> 00:33:00,800 Speaker 3: of the moderators chimed in and said, well do you 648 00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:02,600 Speaker 3: have any evidence of that? What proof do you have 649 00:33:02,640 --> 00:33:05,840 Speaker 3: of that? And JD, to his credit, was prepared and said, well, 650 00:33:05,840 --> 00:33:08,719 Speaker 3: actually there's a Federal Reserve study that lays out the 651 00:33:08,760 --> 00:33:11,480 Speaker 3: impact of illegal immigration driving up the cost of housing, 652 00:33:11,480 --> 00:33:13,280 Speaker 3: and we'll put that out on social media right now 653 00:33:13,320 --> 00:33:15,800 Speaker 3: so you can go read the study. But he also 654 00:33:15,920 --> 00:33:18,600 Speaker 3: made the point of just supply and demand.

Yeah, 664 00:33:46,760 --> 00:33:48,880 Speaker 2: because I think it's like one out of x summer 665 00:33:48,920 --> 00:33:51,000 Speaker 2: of every hotels is filled with illegal immigrants. 666 00:33:51,560 --> 00:33:54,120 Speaker 1: They're taking away hotel room of course. 667 00:33:54,080 --> 00:33:56,840 Speaker 2: So then they get more for the hotel rooms that 668 00:33:57,040 --> 00:33:59,880 Speaker 2: are available. You and I I don't even know if 669 00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:02,240 Speaker 2: did you know I got stranded in New York City 670 00:34:03,040 --> 00:34:06,120 Speaker 2: and there wasn't a single hotel room after we came 671 00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:06,840 Speaker 2: back from the airport. 672 00:34:06,880 --> 00:34:09,000 Speaker 1: Did I tell you this? So this is how bad 673 00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:09,239 Speaker 1: it is. 674 00:34:09,280 --> 00:34:12,560 Speaker 2: And this is when I learned like really, firsthand, I 675 00:34:12,600 --> 00:34:14,239 Speaker 2: went the airport, was on the plane, was on the 676 00:34:14,239 --> 00:34:17,000 Speaker 2: plane for like four hours. They finally cancel the fight. 677 00:34:17,040 --> 00:34:18,600 Speaker 2: We pulled back up the gate and they say go 678 00:34:18,640 --> 00:34:20,200 Speaker 2: back in the city. So immediately get on the phone. 679 00:34:20,200 --> 00:34:21,959 Speaker 2: I called Fox. I'm there for TV. I'm like, hey, 680 00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:23,920 Speaker 2: I'm going to need a hotel room. And I got 681 00:34:23,920 --> 00:34:25,040 Speaker 2: to get back to the city. And then I get 682 00:34:25,040 --> 00:34:27,680 Speaker 2: into a fight back in the morning to Houston, and 683 00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:29,960 Speaker 2: she was like, no problem, I'll callit in a minute. 684 00:34:30,120 --> 00:34:31,759 Speaker 2: Go ahead and head down the cars and we'll get 685 00:34:31,760 --> 00:34:33,799 Speaker 2: you back to the city. She said, I've never seen 686 00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:37,239 Speaker 2: this before. There's not a single hotel room in the city. 687 00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:40,239 Speaker 2: And I'm like not. And it wasn't like there was 688 00:34:40,239 --> 00:34:42,120 Speaker 2: like the super Bowl going on. This is a normal 689 00:34:42,239 --> 00:34:45,239 Speaker 2: Tuesday in New York. And I was like, are you kidding. Well, 690 00:34:45,280 --> 00:34:46,880 Speaker 2: then I open up my app and I'm like, I 691 00:34:46,920 --> 00:34:50,280 Speaker 2: get on Expedia. There are no hotel rooms. They start 692 00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:54,520 Speaker 2: looking in New Jersey, They're looking everywhere. Finally, the only 693 00:34:54,560 --> 00:34:56,319 Speaker 2: option was to go back to the city and hope 694 00:34:56,320 --> 00:34:59,919 Speaker 2: that someone doesn't come to a hotel room. I set 695 00:35:00,160 --> 00:35:02,759 Speaker 2: outside of the hotel. I always stay at know the 696 00:35:02,800 --> 00:35:05,279 Speaker 2: manager and I walked in. He's like, Benny, He's like, 697 00:35:05,320 --> 00:35:07,440 Speaker 2: this is because of all the illegal immigrants in the city. 698 00:35:07,560 --> 00:35:10,239 Speaker 2: He goes, there's no hotel rooms to deal with a capacity. 699 00:35:10,719 --> 00:35:13,000 Speaker 2: I set outside to one in the morning until finally 700 00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:15,879 Speaker 2: someone canceled the hotel and then he checked me into 701 00:35:15,880 --> 00:35:17,680 Speaker 2: that room at one o'clock. So I sat there from 702 00:35:17,719 --> 00:35:20,040 Speaker 2: seven to one am. My fight was at six and 703 00:35:20,080 --> 00:35:22,600 Speaker 2: mornings I slept for like three hours. And he said, 704 00:35:22,600 --> 00:35:24,719 Speaker 2: this is what they've done to our city, referring to 705 00:35:24,760 --> 00:35:27,640 Speaker 2: the illegal immigrants and how many have come in. And 706 00:35:28,160 --> 00:35:30,080 Speaker 2: when I say there was an it was there was 707 00:35:30,160 --> 00:35:33,480 Speaker 2: not a hotel room in the city. That's what's happening 708 00:35:33,480 --> 00:35:36,200 Speaker 2: now because of legal immigration Centater. I want to talk 709 00:35:36,760 --> 00:35:39,920 Speaker 2: and wrap on the issue of style. You know, you 710 00:35:39,960 --> 00:35:42,239 Speaker 2: and I both thought this was going to be a 711 00:35:42,560 --> 00:35:44,759 Speaker 2: intense debate. They don't like each other, They're going to 712 00:35:44,840 --> 00:35:46,920 Speaker 2: throw down. I think we're also gotten kind of used 713 00:35:46,960 --> 00:35:49,560 Speaker 2: to that with Donald Trump. That's what we've seen over 714 00:35:49,560 --> 00:35:51,880 Speaker 2: the last several years. Joe Biden likes to do that 715 00:35:51,920 --> 00:35:54,960 Speaker 2: as well. We've seen a lot of the Republican debates 716 00:35:55,000 --> 00:35:55,680 Speaker 2: primary debates. 717 00:35:56,000 --> 00:35:57,839 Speaker 3: By the way Hillary and Trump was nasty. They were 718 00:35:57,920 --> 00:35:58,480 Speaker 3: Bill nasty. 719 00:35:58,600 --> 00:36:03,240 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I mean down and tonight I didn't. 720 00:36:03,400 --> 00:36:06,960 Speaker 2: I did enjoy a little bit of civility, absolutely, and 721 00:36:06,960 --> 00:36:10,759 Speaker 2: that was something we haven't seen. But I also think 722 00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:13,319 Speaker 2: if it was a strategy by the by the Trump team, 723 00:36:13,400 --> 00:36:16,560 Speaker 2: Hey you're gonna be the likable guy. You're gonna try 724 00:36:16,560 --> 00:36:19,120 Speaker 2: to bring more people into the tent. I want you 725 00:36:19,200 --> 00:36:22,800 Speaker 2: to walk away really thinking that you're the right choice. 726 00:36:23,280 --> 00:36:26,160 Speaker 2: They nailed it. If that was the intent tonight. 727 00:36:26,480 --> 00:36:29,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, Look, I think JD came across as as real 728 00:36:29,080 --> 00:36:32,759 Speaker 3: and relatable. He did a good job of telling his 729 00:36:32,800 --> 00:36:36,080 Speaker 3: own family story and his own background, I mean his 730 00:36:36,719 --> 00:36:39,439 Speaker 3: you know, he wrote a best selling book, Hill Billy LG. 731 00:36:39,719 --> 00:36:43,239 Speaker 3: Was made into a movie, a very very good movie, 732 00:36:43,440 --> 00:36:46,440 Speaker 3: a movie that's terrific to watch. And but yet a 733 00:36:46,440 --> 00:36:48,520 Speaker 3: lot of people don't know that story. He's been a 734 00:36:48,600 --> 00:36:52,959 Speaker 3: caricatured just just like Trump has. And and I think 735 00:36:53,440 --> 00:36:57,920 Speaker 3: tonight made real progress making him seem like a real person, 736 00:36:58,080 --> 00:37:01,239 Speaker 3: seem like a husband and a father, and and you know, 737 00:37:01,280 --> 00:37:06,759 Speaker 3: someone who is has has journeyed from very humble beginnings 738 00:37:06,880 --> 00:37:10,200 Speaker 3: to to right now being the nominee to be vice 739 00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:12,120 Speaker 3: president of the United States. That's that's one heck of 740 00:37:12,160 --> 00:37:12,640 Speaker 3: a journey. 741 00:37:12,960 --> 00:37:15,360 Speaker 2: Make sure you share this podcast with your family and 742 00:37:15,440 --> 00:37:17,560 Speaker 2: your friends, and I'll see you back here tomorrow
