1 00:00:01,000 --> 00:00:04,080 Speaker 1: Welcome in his verdict with Ted Cruz, Ben Ferguson with you. 2 00:00:04,120 --> 00:00:05,760 Speaker 1: It's so nice to have you with us, and Centator. 3 00:00:05,760 --> 00:00:09,039 Speaker 1: We can start with some very interesting news. It seems 4 00:00:09,119 --> 00:00:13,440 Speaker 1: like Democrats are playing checkers. Donald Trump is playing chess. 5 00:00:14,360 --> 00:00:17,200 Speaker 1: He got them to go all in on Epstein everything. 6 00:00:17,280 --> 00:00:19,400 Speaker 1: Now Trump's like, all right, fine, let's see it. No, 7 00:00:19,520 --> 00:00:21,720 Speaker 1: by the way, I think we should be investigating a 8 00:00:21,720 --> 00:00:23,840 Speaker 1: bunch of people that were hanging out with Jeffrey Epstein 9 00:00:23,880 --> 00:00:26,800 Speaker 1: as well. I don't think Democrats had that on their 10 00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:27,639 Speaker 1: bingo cards. 11 00:00:28,200 --> 00:00:30,680 Speaker 2: No, I don't think they did. Sunday night, President Trump 12 00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:33,680 Speaker 2: called on the House of Representatives to vote for releasing 13 00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:36,000 Speaker 2: all the Epstein files. This is a big deal. We're 14 00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:37,720 Speaker 2: gonna break it down why he did it, and what 15 00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:40,720 Speaker 2: it means. We'ress gonna talk about the polling numbers that 16 00:00:40,760 --> 00:00:45,240 Speaker 2: have come down that showed decisively the Democrats lost the shutdown. 17 00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:48,040 Speaker 2: It did not go well for them. The American people 18 00:00:48,159 --> 00:00:50,720 Speaker 2: view it as the shutdown, the end of the shutdown 19 00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:53,959 Speaker 2: as a major victory for President Trump and Republicans. We're 20 00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:56,920 Speaker 2: gonna break that down as well. And finally, we're gonna 21 00:00:56,920 --> 00:01:00,440 Speaker 2: talk about Michelle Obama did an amazing interview that week 22 00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:03,360 Speaker 2: in which she was asked if she would run for president, 23 00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:06,360 Speaker 2: and she basically said no, the American people are too 24 00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:09,720 Speaker 2: much of bigots to an elective woman. That apparently is 25 00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:13,360 Speaker 2: why Kamala Harris lost is because the voters are all 26 00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:17,160 Speaker 2: secret misogynists. And Michelle Obama of why she will not 27 00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:20,120 Speaker 2: grace us with her presence is the same. All of 28 00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:22,440 Speaker 2: that we're going to get into in detail right now. 29 00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:24,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's truly incredible. 30 00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:26,720 Speaker 1: I want to tell you where the holidays coming, and 31 00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:29,679 Speaker 1: many of you may be looking for charities that you 32 00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:32,760 Speaker 1: can get involved in, especially to spend time with your kids, 33 00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:35,160 Speaker 1: your grandkids and talk about how you can get back. 34 00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:37,720 Speaker 1: There is an organization I want you to know about, 35 00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:41,480 Speaker 1: and it's an amazing one, Compassion International.

School is a distant dream, medical care forgotten hope. 41 00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:05,320 Speaker 1: Lucy's potential is overshadowed. Her future is dim, but what 42 00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:07,760 Speaker 1: if someone stepped in. What if there was a way 43 00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:11,200 Speaker 1: to ignite hope for children just like Lucy? Well there is, 44 00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:15,359 Speaker 1: and that is with Compassion International Partners and the local 45 00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:20,320 Speaker 1: churches that provide children holistic support more than just food. 46 00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:26,320 Speaker 1: They receive critical medical care, life changing education, vital skills training, 47 00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:30,440 Speaker 1: and spiritual development, all in Jesus's name, And you can 48 00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:35,000 Speaker 1: empower a child just like Lucy to break free from poverty. 49 00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:37,280 Speaker 1: I want you to do what I've done and sponsor 50 00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:41,760 Speaker 1: a child today. You can visit Compassion dot com. That's 51 00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:45,960 Speaker 1: Compassion dot com, all right. So, Senata, this has been 52 00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:49,480 Speaker 1: a very interesting couple of weeks with the Epstein files. 53 00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:52,120 Speaker 1: You probably dealt with it the same way I have. 54 00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:53,720 Speaker 1: The media is like obsessed with it all of a 55 00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:55,519 Speaker 1: sudden out of nowhere. They were they didn't give a 56 00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:58,359 Speaker 1: damn about the victims for literally years and years and years, 57 00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:01,760 Speaker 1: but now they think they hurt Donald Trump somehow with 58 00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:03,840 Speaker 1: the Epstein files, so they're obsessed with it. 59 00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:06,239 Speaker 3: And I said this to the night on CNN. 60 00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:09,520 Speaker 1: I said, I genuinely wish that you guys, and I 61 00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:11,200 Speaker 1: was referring to the liberals on the show, and the 62 00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:15,360 Speaker 1: host cared about the victims of Jeffrey Everstein this much 63 00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:16,519 Speaker 1: years ago. 64 00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:17,840 Speaker 3: And they didn't. 65 00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:21,720 Speaker 1: But this time it's only about trying to hurt Donald Trump. Now, 66 00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:26,200 Speaker 1: Donald Trump seems to be playing chess in an amazing way, saying, 67 00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:28,760 Speaker 1: all right, fine, hey, I'm in favor of doing it. 68 00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:30,639 Speaker 3: Now, let's vote on it. Let's get it done. 69 00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:33,720 Speaker 1: And not only that, I want to investigate people that 70 00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:36,080 Speaker 1: were in around Epstein to see what may have been 71 00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:38,360 Speaker 1: covered up, and that includes names like Bill Clinton. 72 00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:42,680 Speaker 2: Well Sunday night, Donald Trump said out a lengthy truth 73 00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:45,320 Speaker 2: on Truth's Social Here's what he said. He said quote 74 00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:48,200 Speaker 2: as I said on Friday night aboard Air Force one 75 00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:51,840 Speaker 2: to the fake news media House, Republicans should vote to 76 00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:55,240 Speaker 2: release the Epstein files because we have nothing to hide 77 00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:58,160 Speaker 2: and it's time to move on from this Democrat hoax 78 00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:02,000 Speaker 2: perpetuated by the rat left lunatics in order to deflect 79 00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:05,920 Speaker 2: from the great success of the Republican Party, including our 80 00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:09,920 Speaker 2: recent victory on the Democrats shutdown. The Department of Justice 81 00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:12,680 Speaker 2: has already turned over tens of thousands of pages to 82 00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:17,080 Speaker 2: the public on Epstein and are looking at various Democrat operatives. 83 00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:21,920 Speaker 2: Bill Clinton, Reid Hoffman, Larry Summers, etc. And their relationship 84 00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:25,640 Speaker 2: to Epstein and the House Oversight Committee can have whatever 85 00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:28,320 Speaker 2: they are legit and titled to. I don't care. I 86 00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:31,080 Speaker 2: don't care as in all caps. All I do care 87 00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:33,920 Speaker 2: about is that the Republicans get back on point, back 88 00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:38,840 Speaker 2: on points in all caps, which is the economy affordability, 89 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:43,360 Speaker 2: where we are winning big, our victory on reducing inflation 90 00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:47,039 Speaker 2: from the highest level in history to practically nothing, bringing 91 00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:50,680 Speaker 2: down prices for the American people, delivering historic tax cuts, 92 00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:55,239 Speaker 2: gaining trillions of dollars of investment into America a record 93 00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:59,400 Speaker 2: in all caps, the rebuilding of our military, securing our border, 94 00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:03,600 Speaker 2: deporting criminal illegal aliens, ending men and women's sports, stopping 95 00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:07,920 Speaker 2: transgender for everyone, and so much more. Nobody cared about 96 00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:11,839 Speaker 2: Jeffrey Epstein when he was alive, and if the Democrats 97 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:16,680 Speaker 2: had anything, they would have released it before our landslide 98 00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:18,400 Speaker 2: election victory. I'm going to come back to that in 99 00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:23,400 Speaker 2: a minute. Some quote members of the Republican Party are 100 00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:27,799 Speaker 2: being used, and we can't let that happen. Let's start 101 00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:31,839 Speaker 2: talking about the Republican Party's record setting achievements and not 102 00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:35,960 Speaker 2: fall into the Epstein trap, which is actually a curse 103 00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:41,640 Speaker 2: on the Democrats, not us make America great again. So 104 00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:44,320 Speaker 2: that tweet went out Sunday night. I got to say, 105 00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:47,360 Speaker 2: it's breaking news, and I think it's a big deal. 106 00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:50,240 Speaker 2: I fully expect the House we'll do exactly what President 107 00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:53,279 Speaker 2: Trump urged them to do, which is vote to release 108 00:05:53,320 --> 00:05:57,520 Speaker 2: the files, and hopefully the President is right that that 109 00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:02,960 Speaker 2: will put the constant obsession about the Epstein files behind 110 00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:05,839 Speaker 2: us for the media, because I understand the media is 111 00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:10,080 Speaker 2: not upset and obsessed over the victims of Jeffrey Epstein. 112 00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:13,520 Speaker 2: They're not obsessed over protecting the teenage girls who were 113 00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:16,719 Speaker 2: sexually assaulted. They're obsessed over one thing, which is attacking 114 00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:19,720 Speaker 2: Donald Trump. If it's not attacking Donald Trump, they have 115 00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:22,200 Speaker 2: zero interest. By the way, the Democrats, if it's not 116 00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:26,279 Speaker 2: attacking Donald Trump, they have zero interest. And one of 117 00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:31,480 Speaker 2: the important things to understand, Jeffrey Epstein was a Democrat. 118 00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:37,400 Speaker 2: Jeffrey Epstein was a major Democrat donor. Jeffrey Epstein was 119 00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:41,200 Speaker 2: one of the major fob's friends of Bills a very 120 00:06:41,200 --> 00:06:44,080 Speaker 2: close to Bill Clinton. Jeffrey Epstein was so close to 121 00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:48,400 Speaker 2: Bill Clinton that in his New York home, he had 122 00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:54,000 Speaker 2: hanging on the wall a painting a Bill Clinton in 123 00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:58,440 Speaker 2: Monica Lewinsky's blue dress wearing red pumps. Now that is 124 00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:01,839 Speaker 2: weird and freudian, and I'm very glad I was not 125 00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:04,240 Speaker 2: Jeffrey Epstein's shrink because I don't want to know what's 126 00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:07,640 Speaker 2: going on inside of his mind that he's fantasizing about 127 00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:11,360 Speaker 2: Bill Clinton in a blue dress with red pumps. But 128 00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:14,120 Speaker 2: at the end of the day, this guy was a 129 00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:18,120 Speaker 2: massive donor to Democrats, including Bill Clinton, including Chuck Schumer, 130 00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:22,480 Speaker 2: including Nancy Pelosi, and the Democrats have engaged in one 131 00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:26,400 Speaker 2: of the most incredible political ju jitsus that I think 132 00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 2: has ever happened, because they've tried to hang this scandal 133 00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:34,600 Speaker 2: around Donald Trump's neck and what he said Sunday night 134 00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:38,600 Speaker 2: is enough of this already. Vote to release the files. 135 00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:43,200 Speaker 2: We're witting, we're winning every day, and this is about Democrats. 136 00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:44,800 Speaker 2: We're not going to pretend it's about anything else. 137 00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:47,280 Speaker 1: By the way, there was also another really big story 138 00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:49,000 Speaker 1: that was connected to this the media did not want 139 00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:54,720 Speaker 1: to cover either. It wasn't Republicans that Epstein was texting 140 00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:59,560 Speaker 1: during apparently hearings on Capitol Hill. Epstein was texting House 141 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:03,680 Speaker 1: Democrats during the Michael Cohen hearing, uh and trying to 142 00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:07,920 Speaker 1: give advice on how to hurt Donald Trump. That is 143 00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:10,520 Speaker 1: like completely been admitted by the media. They are not 144 00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:13,480 Speaker 1: going to cover the story that Epstein was literally texting 145 00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:18,360 Speaker 1: trying to hurt Donald Trump, texting Democrats in real time 146 00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:21,240 Speaker 1: like you're if you've ever watched Congress Center during a 147 00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:24,120 Speaker 1: hearing and they look at their phone, Epstein's texting what 148 00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:25,520 Speaker 1: you should be saying or doing. 149 00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:30,320 Speaker 2: That's insane House Democrats while they're cross examining witnesses trying 150 00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:32,839 Speaker 2: to attack Donald Trump. Jeffrey Epstein was like, Okay, ask 151 00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:35,679 Speaker 2: this now, ask this, and and and and the Democrat 152 00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:39,120 Speaker 2: congresswoman was doing that, and and and and this is 153 00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:42,400 Speaker 2: that broke this week. And of course the corporate media 154 00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:45,320 Speaker 2: doesn't want to cover it because their narrative is Epstein 155 00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:48,640 Speaker 2: equals Donald Trump. At the end of the day, Epstein 156 00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:52,480 Speaker 2: was a major Democrat donor. And I gotta say, the 157 00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:57,520 Speaker 2: most important sentence in what Trump tweeted is is is 158 00:08:57,679 --> 00:09:02,520 Speaker 2: the following. Nobody cared about Jeffrey Epstein when he was alive. 159 00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:08,040 Speaker 2: And if the Democrats had anything, they would have released 160 00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:12,000 Speaker 2: it before our landslide election victory. So understand all the 161 00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:15,600 Speaker 2: Epstein files were in the possession of the Biden Department 162 00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:17,920 Speaker 2: of Justice. Yep, they were in the possession of the 163 00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:22,320 Speaker 2: Biden FBI. Now I know that the corporate media, their 164 00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:25,960 Speaker 2: hearts are going pitter path. They want some incredibly damning 165 00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:29,520 Speaker 2: evidence of Donald Trump committing a crime. They want video 166 00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:31,959 Speaker 2: of Donald Trump committing a crime. They've been dreaming about 167 00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:34,199 Speaker 2: that forever and ever and ever. And I just want 168 00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:35,840 Speaker 2: to ask you. I want to ask you what Trump 169 00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:40,880 Speaker 2: said if there were evidence of that, and the Biden 170 00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:45,280 Speaker 2: Justice Department, the most politicized, politically weaponized department of Justice 171 00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:48,880 Speaker 2: in the history of this country, had it, what are 172 00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:51,559 Speaker 2: the chances that they would not have released it before 173 00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:53,680 Speaker 2: election day last year? Yeah? 174 00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:56,720 Speaker 1: Zero percent chance. I mean they of course they would 175 00:09:56,760 --> 00:09:58,520 Speaker 1: have used it. They would have leaked at their masters 176 00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:00,240 Speaker 1: at leaking. If there was anything they could come up 177 00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:02,360 Speaker 1: with to hurt Trump, they will use it. Hell, they'll 178 00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:05,240 Speaker 1: even make up stuff like the Stele dossier to try 179 00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:08,000 Speaker 1: to hurt Trump. I mean, there's nothing they won't do 180 00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:10,559 Speaker 1: to try to bring him down, including trying to connect 181 00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:13,319 Speaker 1: the Epstein files now to Donald Trump, which there again 182 00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:16,120 Speaker 1: this goes back their obsession. They don't care about the victims. 183 00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:19,000 Speaker 1: They only care about hurting Donald Trump, orange man bat. 184 00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:22,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, and look, I assume somewhere in the vast files 185 00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:26,160 Speaker 2: there is something that is embarrassing to some Republican somewhere. 186 00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:31,040 Speaker 2: I assume that sure, because there was clearly some hesitancy 187 00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:35,880 Speaker 2: to release this information. They haven't done so. But everything 188 00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:38,400 Speaker 2: we know about it is the overwhelming weight of the 189 00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:40,960 Speaker 2: evidence is a bunch of corrupt Democrats who were on 190 00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:44,400 Speaker 2: Jeffrey Epstein's plane on the Lalita Express, who went to 191 00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:50,439 Speaker 2: his island, and who presumably participated in sexually assaulting underage girls. 192 00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:53,360 Speaker 2: And I've said for a long time, release that all 193 00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:57,520 Speaker 2: make it public. If anyone has sexually assaulted an underage girl, 194 00:10:57,679 --> 00:11:02,440 Speaker 2: prosecute them. And so I think Donald Trump and the 195 00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:05,079 Speaker 2: Trump White House said, all right, fine, if some Republican 196 00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:07,720 Speaker 2: is embarrassed by some glancing reference, and I have no 197 00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:10,600 Speaker 2: idea what it is, I haven't seen these files, so 198 00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:14,320 Speaker 2: be it. But the bulk of the evidence, from everything 199 00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:18,160 Speaker 2: we know, is going to be evidence that is a real, 200 00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:22,280 Speaker 2: real problem for I suspect a significant number of Democrats. 201 00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:26,760 Speaker 2: I'm glad the President did this. I'm hopeful the House 202 00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:28,560 Speaker 2: can vote, we can put this behind it, and then 203 00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:32,280 Speaker 2: we can have some real accountability to people who committed 204 00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:35,080 Speaker 2: criminal acts and and hurt underage girls. 205 00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:38,520 Speaker 1: When all this comes out, and if it does go 206 00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:40,360 Speaker 1: the way that we believe it is, we're just gonna 207 00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:44,000 Speaker 1: it's all gonna be there. What is the obligation then, 208 00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:50,240 Speaker 1: and what can people expect will happen afterwards? From a 209 00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:53,199 Speaker 1: congressional oversight perspective. 210 00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:56,199 Speaker 2: I don't know. I think you will see Congress engage 211 00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:59,400 Speaker 2: in some oversight. You know, I've talked in this podcast 212 00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:03,120 Speaker 2: before how Pambondi, the Attorney General, told me there were 213 00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:05,800 Speaker 2: significant videos that they were in the process of reviewing 214 00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:08,800 Speaker 2: to make sure they're protecting the victims. Obviously that's important, 215 00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:11,839 Speaker 2: you want to protect the victims. There are also, as 216 00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:14,400 Speaker 2: I understand it, limitations in terms of what can be 217 00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:18,600 Speaker 2: released publicly based on orders from federal judges. My understanding 218 00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:22,199 Speaker 2: again is those judges are all judges appointed by Democrat presidents, 219 00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:26,800 Speaker 2: and so DOJ feels some constraints because of those judicial 220 00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:29,200 Speaker 2: orders in terms of what they can release. I'd like 221 00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:31,400 Speaker 2: it all to be public, make it all public, have 222 00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:34,160 Speaker 2: there be accountability across the board, and I think the 223 00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:37,560 Speaker 2: President's tweet Sunday night is a big step in that direction. 224 00:12:37,880 --> 00:12:39,920 Speaker 1: I want to play with Donald Trump, I had to 225 00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:42,319 Speaker 1: say before he got on the plane to return back 226 00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:45,320 Speaker 1: to Washington, before this tweet was put out, and he 227 00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:47,880 Speaker 1: got in the face of reporter who asked him a question, 228 00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:50,600 Speaker 1: trying to again make this into some sort of ap 229 00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:51,720 Speaker 1: scene Trump connection. 230 00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:53,319 Speaker 3: Take a listen to what he said. 231 00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:57,000 Speaker 4: Fake news like you, you're a terrible reporter, and fake 232 00:12:57,120 --> 00:12:59,520 Speaker 4: news like you. They just keep bringing that up to 233 00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:03,920 Speaker 4: deflect from the tremendous success of the Trump administration. So 234 00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:06,600 Speaker 4: a guy like Massy, his full numbers is showing, he said, 235 00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:10,880 Speaker 4: six percent approval rating right now, and we call him 236 00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:14,560 Speaker 4: Ran Paul Junior because he never votes for the Republican Party. 237 00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:19,480 Speaker 4: So that using Jeffrey Epstein as a deflection from the 238 00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:22,240 Speaker 4: tremendous success that we're having as a party. 239 00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:26,320 Speaker 1: You know, I do think there's politics here. President Trump's 240 00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:28,960 Speaker 1: figured that out, and he's like, they just bring this 241 00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:30,840 Speaker 1: crap up whenever they want to start hitting me on 242 00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:32,920 Speaker 1: something because they don't want to talk about something else. 243 00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:35,040 Speaker 1: And that's why I think you so irritated. And it's 244 00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:37,040 Speaker 1: also I think the reason why on the plane decided, 245 00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:39,760 Speaker 1: all right, forget it. I'm all in on this one. 246 00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:42,960 Speaker 2: Let's go well and listen. The substante point about his 247 00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:46,800 Speaker 2: tweet is exactly right that we have seen major historic 248 00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:50,120 Speaker 2: victories the past year. You look at illegal immigration. We 249 00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:53,280 Speaker 2: went from the worst invasion of this country in history 250 00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:56,559 Speaker 2: twelve million illegals by far the highest rate ever, to 251 00:13:57,080 --> 00:14:00,760 Speaker 2: illegal border crossings dropping more than ninety nine percent. When's 252 00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:02,640 Speaker 2: the last time the corporate media covered that. They don't 253 00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:06,040 Speaker 2: cover that, the fact that this crisis that was endangering 254 00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:09,440 Speaker 2: Americans across this country, President Trump has solved that. You 255 00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:11,320 Speaker 2: look at the one big beautiful bill you and I 256 00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:14,199 Speaker 2: have talked about before. There are more conservative victories in 257 00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:17,720 Speaker 2: that one big beautiful bill than any legislation that has 258 00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:21,160 Speaker 2: ever passed into law, including more than four trillion dollars 259 00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:24,280 Speaker 2: in tax cuts, including no taxes on tips, no taxes 260 00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:27,880 Speaker 2: on overtime, no taxes on Social Security, including the provision 261 00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:31,240 Speaker 2: I authored, the largest federal school choice provision in history, 262 00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:34,840 Speaker 2: that is going to help millions of kids across America 263 00:14:34,880 --> 00:14:38,320 Speaker 2: get access to an excellent education, including the Trump accounts 264 00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:41,280 Speaker 2: that is going to make every child in America an 265 00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:46,080 Speaker 2: owner of the biggest companies in America. These are landmark victories, 266 00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:49,840 Speaker 2: and I think the President is frustrated that not enough 267 00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:52,360 Speaker 2: Republicans are talking about that, the media is not talking 268 00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:54,960 Speaker 2: about that. And I think this is his efforts to say, look, 269 00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:58,120 Speaker 2: let's focus on our real success as the president as 270 00:14:58,160 --> 00:15:01,640 Speaker 2: a result of his leadership, where seeing trillions of dollars 271 00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:05,160 Speaker 2: of new investments in the US economy, opening new factories. 272 00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:08,200 Speaker 2: I'm talking to CEOs every week who are talking about 273 00:15:08,240 --> 00:15:12,280 Speaker 2: making massive new investments in America, creating jobs. Then I 274 00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:15,080 Speaker 2: think the President quite rightly says that's what we should 275 00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:17,400 Speaker 2: be talking about, how we're making a difference in the 276 00:15:17,440 --> 00:15:21,880 Speaker 2: lives of Americans, not the Democrats political game trying to 277 00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:25,400 Speaker 2: blame this Democrat donor who was a pedophile, trying to 278 00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:29,040 Speaker 2: blame him on Republicans. I think that's exactly right. 279 00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:33,000 Speaker 1: By the way you go back to what the Republicans 280 00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:35,360 Speaker 1: have done compared to what the Democrats have done. It's 281 00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:38,160 Speaker 1: a great segue into some data that we now have, 282 00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:41,720 Speaker 1: and it may explain why the Democrats, eight of them, 283 00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:44,960 Speaker 1: decide to go along with the Republicans after the longest 284 00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:49,760 Speaker 1: shut down in American history. It also, in theory if 285 00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:52,880 Speaker 1: there is sanity in the Democratic Party could tell you 286 00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:54,960 Speaker 1: a lot about what may or may not happen come 287 00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:59,760 Speaker 1: January with another government shut down, and that is the Democrats. 288 00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:03,240 Speaker 1: This isn't because I'm saying it. The polling is now 289 00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:08,520 Speaker 1: saying it. Democrats lost on the issue of the government shutdown. 290 00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:10,840 Speaker 1: Let's break those numbers down for everybody. 291 00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:15,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, So, CBS News conducted a poll. Here's what CBS 292 00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:19,040 Speaker 2: News tweeted. Quote. By a wide margin, Americans say it 293 00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:23,320 Speaker 2: was Republicans and President Trump who succeeded in getting more 294 00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:25,960 Speaker 2: of what they wanted from negotiations to end the shutdown. 295 00:16:26,400 --> 00:16:30,360 Speaker 2: This survey recontacted americans first interviewed in our early November 296 00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:33,200 Speaker 2: poll while the shutdown was in effect. And here's what 297 00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:37,000 Speaker 2: CBS concluded ending the shutdown. Who got more of what 298 00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:40,200 Speaker 2: they wanted? Trump and Republicans? What percent do you think 299 00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:40,600 Speaker 2: it has been? 300 00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:42,040 Speaker 3: What is it? 301 00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:44,800 Speaker 2: Fifty five percent? 302 00:16:45,520 --> 00:16:46,040 Speaker 3: There you go? 303 00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:48,120 Speaker 2: How about Democrats? Do you think it's close? 304 00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:52,600 Speaker 3: I'm going to go probably not six percent. 305 00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:57,040 Speaker 2: Fifty say Trump and Republicans got more of what they wanted, 306 00:16:57,080 --> 00:17:01,120 Speaker 2: six percent say Democrats did, fifteen percent say both equally, 307 00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:05,840 Speaker 2: and twenty four percent say neither. So that's what CBS. 308 00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:10,360 Speaker 2: CBS is hardly this right wing source, CBS is concluding 309 00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:14,800 Speaker 2: the American people clearly see this as a loss for Democrats. 310 00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:17,280 Speaker 2: And I want you to listen to Tim Kane. So 311 00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:21,720 Speaker 2: Tim Kaine is, as you know, a Democrat senator from Virginia. 312 00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:25,120 Speaker 2: Virginia has an awful lot of federal employees who went 313 00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:30,000 Speaker 2: forty three days without being paid, without getting a paycheck, 314 00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:33,480 Speaker 2: many of whom were frustrated, and Tim Kaine, by the way, 315 00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:36,760 Speaker 2: voted for reopening the government. And so I want you 316 00:17:36,800 --> 00:17:40,800 Speaker 2: to listen to Tim Kaine when he's being asked about 317 00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:44,159 Speaker 2: AOC attacking Senate Democrats for being willing to open the 318 00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:47,440 Speaker 2: government at all. Give a listen. The lesson that they're 319 00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:50,480 Speaker 2: learning is that Democrats are met and that next. 320 00:17:50,240 --> 00:17:52,359 Speaker 5: Time you just need to hurt working people and working 321 00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:55,440 Speaker 5: Americans more to get them to fold. And I don't 322 00:17:55,440 --> 00:17:56,679 Speaker 5: want them to learn that lesson. 323 00:17:57,600 --> 00:18:00,119 Speaker 6: Senator, what do you say to that argument that Democrats' 324 00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:01,360 Speaker 6: projected weakness here? 325 00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:05,359 Speaker 5: So twofold, I have three hundred and twenty thousand federal 326 00:18:05,400 --> 00:18:09,560 Speaker 5: employees in Virginia, and together with their families, that's probably 327 00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:13,359 Speaker 5: seven hundred thousand dependents getting them all back to work 328 00:18:13,400 --> 00:18:17,840 Speaker 5: with two paychecks that they've missed, restored with protections against 329 00:18:17,920 --> 00:18:21,720 Speaker 5: future firings. You know, some folks like AOC may think 330 00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:26,439 Speaker 5: that's nothing. Virginians think it's an awful lot. And second, 331 00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:29,639 Speaker 5: if the goal was to try to get healthcare front 332 00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:32,560 Speaker 5: and center, she was not at the table with the 333 00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:35,840 Speaker 5: Republicans in the Senate, and so maybe she thinks that 334 00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:38,879 Speaker 5: the Republicans would have caved. Would it have been another 335 00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:43,720 Speaker 5: week of SNAP recipients losing their SNAP benefits, another month 336 00:18:43,760 --> 00:18:48,159 Speaker 5: of air traffic or air travelers enduring chaos and even danger, 337 00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:52,399 Speaker 5: another two months of federal employees losing their paychecks. I 338 00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:54,960 Speaker 5: was at the table with the Republican senators, and I 339 00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:57,879 Speaker 5: knew if we wanted to get to the healthcare discussion, 340 00:18:58,160 --> 00:18:59,520 Speaker 5: we had to open up government. 341 00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:02,280 Speaker 3: I mean, this is a little bit of a civil war. 342 00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:05,440 Speaker 1: I think you're witnessing on on live TV if you're 343 00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:08,639 Speaker 1: watching Meet the Press, Tim Kay and Kan is exactly 344 00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:11,040 Speaker 1: like the most like conservative guy in the world of 345 00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:15,800 Speaker 1: the Democratic Party is pretty progressively liberal. AOC there, and look, 346 00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:17,600 Speaker 1: I think this is gonna be the fight they're gonna 347 00:19:17,640 --> 00:19:20,520 Speaker 1: have come January. Right, are the are they gonna be 348 00:19:20,560 --> 00:19:24,440 Speaker 1: held hostage again by the AOC's the party or will 349 00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:27,119 Speaker 1: the saying look at the poll numbers and say we 350 00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:28,240 Speaker 1: can't do that again. 351 00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:29,959 Speaker 3: It didn't work out for us. 352 00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:32,600 Speaker 2: Yeah. And by the way, the Civil War is playing out. 353 00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:35,600 Speaker 2: You know, Tim Kaine voted for reopening the government. The 354 00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:40,359 Speaker 2: other Virginia Senator, Mark Warner, did not. Mark Warner voted 355 00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:42,360 Speaker 2: to keep the government shut down. And by the way, 356 00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:43,800 Speaker 2: you know which one of them is on the ballot 357 00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:44,920 Speaker 2: in twenty twenty six. 358 00:19:45,320 --> 00:19:47,080 Speaker 3: Which one is that Mark Warner. 359 00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:52,800 Speaker 2: So every one of the federal government employees who didn't 360 00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:56,159 Speaker 2: get paid, Mark Warner voted even on day forty three, no, 361 00:19:56,920 --> 00:20:00,159 Speaker 2: we're not gonna pay you. And now, now look the 362 00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:04,880 Speaker 2: Virginia gubernatorial election. You had Democrat turnout because they're hardcore 363 00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:08,800 Speaker 2: partisans were mad, but the Virginia gubernatorial election was a 364 00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:14,119 Speaker 2: not a terribly high turnout election. It's an interesting decision. 365 00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:17,920 Speaker 2: Usually when you have two senators from the same party 366 00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:20,600 Speaker 2: from the same state, they vote as a pair because 367 00:20:20,640 --> 00:20:22,720 Speaker 2: they don't like to have a distinction. Mark Warner is 368 00:20:22,760 --> 00:20:25,639 Speaker 2: not going to enjoy for the next year being asked, 369 00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:28,320 Speaker 2: why didn't you vote with Tim Kaine to reopen the government. 370 00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:33,680 Speaker 2: That is a problem for Mark Warner, and ultimately I assume, look, 371 00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:38,160 Speaker 2: Mark Warner styles himself. He calls himself a moderate Democrat. 372 00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:42,879 Speaker 2: Now he votes with Chuck Schumer virtually every single time. 373 00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:47,600 Speaker 2: But Schumer himself has a fundamental problem. I mean, when 374 00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:52,120 Speaker 2: you said Democrat civil war, that's not hyperbole. And it 375 00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:56,880 Speaker 2: is the reason we had the Schumer shutdown, the largest 376 00:20:57,000 --> 00:21:00,520 Speaker 2: longest government shutdown in American history, is because Schumer as 377 00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:04,120 Speaker 2: a political crisis. His left wing wants to take him 378 00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:06,600 Speaker 2: out and fire him, end his job. By the way, 379 00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:09,520 Speaker 2: the second longest government shut down in history was the 380 00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:12,159 Speaker 2: first Schumer shut down under the first Trump term. So 381 00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:15,679 Speaker 2: Chuck Schumer has spots one and two in the record books. 382 00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:19,399 Speaker 2: But even though Chuck Schumer threw this temper tantrum, shut 383 00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:23,400 Speaker 2: the government down, didn't pay federal government employees, inflicted enormous 384 00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:25,240 Speaker 2: pain on the American people, even though we did all 385 00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:27,639 Speaker 2: of that to show his crazies, he hates Trump as 386 00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:30,120 Speaker 2: much as they did. Even though on day forty three 387 00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:33,520 Speaker 2: of the shutdown, Chuck Schumer still voted no, don't reopen 388 00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:36,159 Speaker 2: the government. You know what, the radicals still want to 389 00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:40,080 Speaker 2: throw him out. Of office. It wasn't enough. Take a listen 390 00:21:40,119 --> 00:21:42,679 Speaker 2: to Tim Kaine being asked about whether Schumer should. 391 00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:46,399 Speaker 6: Be fired the Democratic Party. More than a dozen House 392 00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:51,080 Speaker 6: members are calling for Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer to 393 00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:55,480 Speaker 6: step down, including my next guest, Congressman Roe Kanna, Senator. 394 00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:59,119 Speaker 6: Given this, given that so many Democrats are calling for 395 00:21:59,600 --> 00:22:03,879 Speaker 6: leadership to step aside, can he be an effective leader? 396 00:22:05,080 --> 00:22:08,280 Speaker 5: Yes, Chuck has been an effective leader. Remember when Chuck 397 00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:13,160 Speaker 5: was Majority leader during the Biden administration, he produced a 398 00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:17,400 Speaker 5: string of legislative wins with a bare majority, nearly unparalleled 399 00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:21,200 Speaker 5: in recent history. Infrastructure, the American Rescue Plan, the Inflation 400 00:22:21,280 --> 00:22:24,960 Speaker 5: and Reduction Act, fixing the Electoral College, first gun safety 401 00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:29,560 Speaker 5: bill in twenty five years, an important veterans legislation. Being 402 00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:32,399 Speaker 5: a minority leader is tough in the Senate. We have 403 00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:35,600 Speaker 5: some tools in minority, but not many. We don't control 404 00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:39,359 Speaker 5: what's on the floor. And you know, if you're dealing 405 00:22:39,359 --> 00:22:42,560 Speaker 5: with senators and Kristin you do. It's not exactly like 406 00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:45,800 Speaker 5: senators just get in line and follow the leader. So 407 00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:49,120 Speaker 5: I don't tell Rocanna or AOC or anybody else who 408 00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:51,320 Speaker 5: you should pick as your House leader, because I got 409 00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:53,600 Speaker 5: a full time job being a senator. I don't need 410 00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:57,439 Speaker 5: to freelance opinions about House leadership. They should focus on 411 00:22:57,480 --> 00:23:00,920 Speaker 5: their own leadership and let senators do what we need 412 00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:02,760 Speaker 5: to do to keep this country moving forward. 413 00:23:03,080 --> 00:23:05,080 Speaker 1: I mean, saty, this is just a straight up problem 414 00:23:05,119 --> 00:23:08,680 Speaker 1: for Democrats now right. They don't know who their leaders are, 415 00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:11,800 Speaker 1: they don't know who they're standing behind, they don't know 416 00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:14,480 Speaker 1: who they want to be in charge. And yet they 417 00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:16,600 Speaker 1: just were able to shut down the government and claim 418 00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:17,600 Speaker 1: they were successful. 419 00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:19,240 Speaker 3: And now that's even a backfire. 420 00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:23,280 Speaker 2: Look, this is Democrat on democrat political warfare. This is 421 00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:24,040 Speaker 2: a civil war. 422 00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:24,560 Speaker 5: You know. 423 00:23:24,560 --> 00:23:26,760 Speaker 2: It reminds me of the old quip that Ronald Reagan 424 00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:29,080 Speaker 2: used to say, which is the problem with Republicans is 425 00:23:29,119 --> 00:23:30,960 Speaker 2: the right hand doesn't know what the far right hand 426 00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:34,399 Speaker 2: is doing. This is an instance where for Democrats, the 427 00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:36,359 Speaker 2: left hand doesn't know what the far left hand is 428 00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:39,200 Speaker 2: doing other than they are punching each other. They are 429 00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:42,879 Speaker 2: fighting like crazy. And so it really is striking to 430 00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:45,000 Speaker 2: see Tim Kaine going on a Sunday show and getting 431 00:23:45,040 --> 00:23:48,360 Speaker 2: asked AOC says, you guys suck, and Rocanna says Chuck 432 00:23:48,359 --> 00:23:51,119 Speaker 2: Schumer should be fired. What say you and he's like, 433 00:23:51,119 --> 00:23:53,840 Speaker 2: they should butt out and let us be sentate Democrats 434 00:23:53,840 --> 00:23:56,080 Speaker 2: because we're screwing things up so badly that we're really 435 00:23:56,080 --> 00:23:56,520 Speaker 2: good at it. 436 00:23:57,160 --> 00:23:57,400 Speaker 3: Yeah. 437 00:23:57,440 --> 00:23:58,879 Speaker 1: And if you think that, by the way, that the 438 00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:02,000 Speaker 1: only ones that are just can right now, you would 439 00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:05,520 Speaker 1: be wrong. Let's move to Michelle Obama. She has come 440 00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:08,800 Speaker 1: out and basically said, I will not grace you with 441 00:24:08,920 --> 00:24:12,560 Speaker 1: my presence as a president of the United States America. 442 00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:16,600 Speaker 1: You don't deserve me because there's too many massagists out 443 00:24:16,640 --> 00:24:19,760 Speaker 1: there and I'm not gonna give you my candidacy. 444 00:24:20,640 --> 00:24:23,360 Speaker 2: Yeah. She was asked whether or not she would run 445 00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:26,800 Speaker 2: for president. Her response was, as we saw in this 446 00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:31,359 Speaker 2: past election, sadly, we ain't ready. That's why I'm like, 447 00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:33,959 Speaker 2: don't even look at me about running, because you all 448 00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:36,960 Speaker 2: are lying. You're not ready for a woman. You are not. 449 00:24:38,520 --> 00:24:40,359 Speaker 2: And she says, you know, we've got a lot of 450 00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:43,640 Speaker 2: growing up to do, and there's still, sadly a lot 451 00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:45,320 Speaker 2: of men who do not feel like they can be 452 00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:47,760 Speaker 2: led by a woman. And we saw it what utter 453 00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:51,399 Speaker 2: and complete nonsense by the way, Joe Biden was getting 454 00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:54,080 Speaker 2: his ass kicked. Now, I understand the Democrats can't tell 455 00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:56,400 Speaker 2: the difference between a man and a woman. So maybe Michelle. 456 00:24:56,040 --> 00:24:58,480 Speaker 3: Obama, a woman, is right that thinks that. 457 00:24:58,520 --> 00:25:01,480 Speaker 2: Joe Biden is a woman. But Trump was winning when 458 00:25:01,480 --> 00:25:04,080 Speaker 2: Biden was the nominee. Trump was winning when Michelle Obama 459 00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:07,399 Speaker 2: was the nominee. Trump was winning a because the Biden 460 00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:10,440 Speaker 2: Harris Democrat agenda was a train wreck that hurt the 461 00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:13,639 Speaker 2: American people, and b because the American people wanted President 462 00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:16,159 Speaker 2: Trump back in the oval office. Here, I want you 463 00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:19,320 Speaker 2: to give a listen to exactly what Michelle Obama said, 464 00:25:19,359 --> 00:25:19,879 Speaker 2: Give a listen. 465 00:25:20,200 --> 00:25:22,840 Speaker 7: Do you think that that impacts the room that we've 466 00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:26,480 Speaker 7: made for a woman to be president? Well, as we 467 00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:31,760 Speaker 7: saw in this past election, sadly, we ain't ready. That's 468 00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:34,240 Speaker 7: why I'm like, don't even look at me about running 469 00:25:34,240 --> 00:25:37,399 Speaker 7: because you all are lying you're not ready for a woman. 470 00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:41,720 Speaker 7: You are not, So don't waste my time. You know, 471 00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:44,479 Speaker 7: we got a lot of growing up to do, and 472 00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:47,240 Speaker 7: theyre's still I'm sadly a lot of men who do 473 00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:49,680 Speaker 7: not feel like they can be led by a woman. 474 00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:50,800 Speaker 7: And we saw it. 475 00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:58,879 Speaker 3: What was the question I just said, m So we 476 00:25:58,920 --> 00:26:00,399 Speaker 3: don't need to ask it again. Answer. 477 00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:04,400 Speaker 1: I mean, you listen to that, and the room goes 478 00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:06,879 Speaker 1: wild with women. It was clearly a female audience that 479 00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:08,320 Speaker 1: she's talking with there. 480 00:26:08,560 --> 00:26:11,600 Speaker 2: It was also a feminine man. Don't don't, don't forget. 481 00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:14,000 Speaker 3: Oh, that's true. We can't assume, I mean, this. 482 00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:15,520 Speaker 2: Is this is the Democrat Party. 483 00:26:16,119 --> 00:26:18,960 Speaker 1: Yes, we can't assume from the high pitchedness of the 484 00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:20,800 Speaker 1: screams in the room that it was actually when it 485 00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:24,160 Speaker 1: could women, it could be people that identify as a woman. 486 00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:25,800 Speaker 3: That's true. Valid point. I apologize. 487 00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:28,720 Speaker 2: When you have a male who's taking estrogen and like 488 00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:32,720 Speaker 2: wearing a tight strap to like tuck in, they have 489 00:26:32,760 --> 00:26:33,920 Speaker 2: pretty high squeels. 490 00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:36,520 Speaker 1: Well you know they jope during the holidays and shavit 491 00:26:36,600 --> 00:26:39,480 Speaker 1: target get those tucking swimsuits for them, right, And half 492 00:26:39,480 --> 00:26:41,000 Speaker 1: of them used to work at the White House anyway, 493 00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:43,879 Speaker 1: so there's always that as well. When I heard that, 494 00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:47,879 Speaker 1: When I heard that, I laughed because I thought it 495 00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:50,640 Speaker 1: was so funny. One, I don't think there's a bunch 496 00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:52,960 Speaker 1: of people that are wanting her to run run right 497 00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:56,360 Speaker 1: now for for president. Her best shout at it would 498 00:26:56,359 --> 00:26:59,040 Speaker 1: have been a coronation like we had with with with 499 00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:02,879 Speaker 1: Kamala Harris that obviously didn't happen. But she's like you basically, 500 00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:06,640 Speaker 1: don't deserve me. That is the weirdest Jedi mind trick 501 00:27:06,680 --> 00:27:08,000 Speaker 1: political thing I've ever seen. 502 00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:11,800 Speaker 2: Well, look, it's just arrogance, and you're right, had she 503 00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:13,959 Speaker 2: wanted to do it, they would have handed it to 504 00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:16,120 Speaker 2: her instead of Kamala Harris and you and I talked 505 00:27:16,160 --> 00:27:18,760 Speaker 2: about this a lot on this podcast. By the way, 506 00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:22,560 Speaker 2: this podcast predicted more than a year before the Democrat 507 00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:24,960 Speaker 2: Party pulled the rug out from under Joe Biden. We 508 00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:29,040 Speaker 2: predicted on Verdict. Regular listens to Verdict. No, we regularly 509 00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:33,159 Speaker 2: make predictions. We make predictions that frankly are risky, that 510 00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:37,080 Speaker 2: are out there, and the overwhelming majority of the predictions 511 00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:40,520 Speaker 2: we make on this podcast have come true. When you 512 00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:43,320 Speaker 2: and I said a year before Joe Biden was yanked 513 00:27:43,480 --> 00:27:46,760 Speaker 2: unceremoniously off the ticket, that Biden would be pulled off 514 00:27:46,760 --> 00:27:51,000 Speaker 2: the ticket, you and I, and by that I mainly 515 00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:56,879 Speaker 2: mean me. I was mocked mercilessly. 516 00:27:57,480 --> 00:27:59,520 Speaker 3: Hold on, I agreed with you at the time. Give 517 00:27:59,560 --> 00:28:01,360 Speaker 3: me a little no. 518 00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:03,160 Speaker 2: No, you did agree with me, but they didn't make 519 00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:07,320 Speaker 2: fun of you. The press went after me and says 520 00:28:07,440 --> 00:28:10,280 Speaker 2: Cruise is a moon bat numbskull. I think they kind 521 00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:13,040 Speaker 2: of bake into the cake that you're a moon bat numbskull. 522 00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:16,280 Speaker 3: So I do host this show with you. So there's that, right, Yeah. 523 00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:19,239 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's guilt by association. Sorry about that, but like 524 00:28:19,600 --> 00:28:23,800 Speaker 2: literally the corporate media went crazy. They had episodes mocking me. 525 00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:26,639 Speaker 2: What a crazy thing for Cruz to say, Biden's not 526 00:28:26,680 --> 00:28:30,560 Speaker 2: going to be the nominee. Obviously, anyone with any sense 527 00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:32,640 Speaker 2: at all knows he's going to be the nominee. Well, 528 00:28:33,200 --> 00:28:36,359 Speaker 2: we were right, and if Michelle Obama had wanted it, 529 00:28:36,400 --> 00:28:38,520 Speaker 2: she would have been the nominee last time. We predicted 530 00:28:38,520 --> 00:28:41,720 Speaker 2: that as well. She didn't want it, but the dripping 531 00:28:41,960 --> 00:28:44,360 Speaker 2: arrogance of her, you know, you listen to her comments. 532 00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:47,800 Speaker 2: The American people have a lot of growing up to do. Yeah, 533 00:28:47,840 --> 00:28:53,320 Speaker 2: like the absolute condescension. You people are too immature to 534 00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:58,560 Speaker 2: elect my magnificence. Why not because my ideas are terrible, 535 00:28:58,600 --> 00:29:02,240 Speaker 2: Not because the Democrat ideas are horrible and have resulted 536 00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:05,080 Speaker 2: in open borders, have resulted in people being murdered and 537 00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:08,000 Speaker 2: women being raped and children being assaulted. Not because we 538 00:29:08,040 --> 00:29:12,680 Speaker 2: had rampant inflation, not because Joe Biden. The Democrats caused 539 00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:15,360 Speaker 2: war all over the earth, turned peace and prosperity into 540 00:29:15,400 --> 00:29:17,880 Speaker 2: a war in Ukraine and October seventh and a war 541 00:29:17,920 --> 00:29:21,480 Speaker 2: in Gaza. You know, not because every single thing we 542 00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:26,000 Speaker 2: touched turned to absolute garbage. No, no, no, no, That's not 543 00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:30,560 Speaker 2: the reason Kamala Harris lost resoundingly. The reason, according to 544 00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:33,880 Speaker 2: the leftist ideology, is you all are bigots and your 545 00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:37,640 Speaker 2: racist and your sexist. And that's the only possible reason. 546 00:29:37,720 --> 00:29:43,800 Speaker 2: And I got to say that contemptuous condescension is one 547 00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:46,760 Speaker 2: of the worst characteristics of the Democrat Party today. But 548 00:29:47,120 --> 00:29:51,720 Speaker 2: it also does indicate this is not a party that 549 00:29:51,880 --> 00:29:55,160 Speaker 2: is reassessing. You know, normally, we lose an election, and 550 00:29:55,160 --> 00:29:59,240 Speaker 2: you lose an election badly. At least some people with 551 00:29:59,360 --> 00:30:02,240 Speaker 2: sense in the part to go, huh, wonder why the 552 00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:04,880 Speaker 2: voters rejected what we said. Maybe we should change, you know, 553 00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:08,840 Speaker 2: you think back to in nineteen eighty Reagan was elected. 554 00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:11,600 Speaker 2: In eighty four, Reagan was re elected one forty nine 555 00:30:11,600 --> 00:30:14,720 Speaker 2: out of fifty states, came within a few thousand votes 556 00:30:14,760 --> 00:30:17,920 Speaker 2: of winning every single state in the Union. Reagan won California, 557 00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:23,440 Speaker 2: New York, Illinois, Massachusetts, every state Minnesota. Nineteen eighty eight, 558 00:30:23,480 --> 00:30:27,120 Speaker 2: George Herbert walker Bush was elected and after losing three 559 00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:32,960 Speaker 2: consecutive presidential races. Democrats said, huh, maybe nominating Jimmy Carter 560 00:30:33,160 --> 00:30:36,440 Speaker 2: and Walter Mondale and Michael Dukaucus was a bad idea. 561 00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:41,000 Speaker 2: Maybe crazy left wing loons do not command a majority 562 00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:43,120 Speaker 2: in American What did they do? They pivoted, They moved 563 00:30:43,160 --> 00:30:47,000 Speaker 2: dramatically towards the center, and they nominated what was then 564 00:30:46,800 --> 00:30:50,400 Speaker 2: a moderate to conservative Democrat, the governor of Arkansas named 565 00:30:50,440 --> 00:30:54,160 Speaker 2: Bill Clinton. And Bill Clinton won two consecutive elections because 566 00:30:54,160 --> 00:30:57,719 Speaker 2: they shifted. You know what, I don't see any Democrats 567 00:30:57,760 --> 00:30:59,800 Speaker 2: doing that right now. I don't see them looking in 568 00:30:59,840 --> 00:31:03,760 Speaker 2: saying why did we get clobbered? Why did did Trump 569 00:31:03,840 --> 00:31:07,480 Speaker 2: win all seven of the swing states? I don't see 570 00:31:07,520 --> 00:31:10,400 Speaker 2: Democrats saying that at all. And Michelle Obama saying, you 571 00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:12,360 Speaker 2: people are a bunch of biggots in sexists and you 572 00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:15,320 Speaker 2: just need to grow up. You know what I'm saying, 573 00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:18,720 Speaker 2: Whoever the Democrat nominee is in twenty eight, please make 574 00:31:18,760 --> 00:31:22,440 Speaker 2: Michelle Obama your spokesperson, because we really need her lecturing 575 00:31:22,480 --> 00:31:25,960 Speaker 2: the American people how much the voter suck. Because you 576 00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:30,320 Speaker 2: know that historically has proved such an effective way to campaign. 577 00:31:31,320 --> 00:31:33,520 Speaker 1: Amen to that, don't forget we do this show Monday, 578 00:31:33,520 --> 00:31:36,560 Speaker 1: Wednesday Friday.
