Jeremy Carl is 5 00:00:22,897 --> 00:00:25,617 Speaker 2: with us. He's a senior fellow at the Claremont Institute, 6 00:00:25,697 --> 00:00:28,817 Speaker 2: author of The Unprotected Class. Jeremy, let's jump into it 7 00:00:28,977 --> 00:00:32,337 Speaker 2: early voting, because the election is pretty much underway as 8 00:00:32,337 --> 00:00:32,657 Speaker 2: we talk. 9 00:00:32,737 --> 00:00:34,457 Speaker 3: What are you seeing You're following it closely? 10 00:00:35,497 --> 00:00:38,337 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I'm very encouraged by what I'm seeing 11 00:00:38,497 --> 00:00:41,977 Speaker 1: so far, and I want to be cautious because you 12 00:00:41,977 --> 00:00:44,217 Speaker 1: can get a lot of these partisan accounts and they'll 13 00:00:44,257 --> 00:00:48,337 Speaker 1: always kind of give you the really good statistics and 14 00:00:48,337 --> 00:00:51,017 Speaker 1: they'll sort of gloss over things that don't look as good. 15 00:00:51,457 --> 00:00:54,857 Speaker 1: But I'd say, particularly in places like Georgia and Pennsylvania, 16 00:00:55,297 --> 00:00:59,857 Speaker 1: as best we can tell, certainly, we're dramatically outperforming where 17 00:00:59,857 --> 00:01:02,377 Speaker 1: we were with mail in ballots or in George's case, 18 00:01:02,417 --> 00:01:05,177 Speaker 1: early voting in the twenty twenty cycle, and that was 19 00:01:05,177 --> 00:01:07,497 Speaker 1: a weird cycle, but also looking better than we did 20 00:01:07,497 --> 00:01:10,657 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty two, and given that those were breadth 21 00:01:10,897 --> 00:01:14,497 Speaker 1: elections in both of those times, you know, it's just 22 00:01:14,497 --> 00:01:16,817 Speaker 1: going to take a couple points. So I think there's 23 00:01:16,857 --> 00:01:19,297 Speaker 1: a lot of room for optimism, but no room for complacency. 24 00:01:20,217 --> 00:01:23,537 Speaker 2: Now, if you were defined an area of the campaign 25 00:01:23,617 --> 00:01:28,177 Speaker 2: right now that you think is most in need of attention, 26 00:01:28,217 --> 00:01:30,857 Speaker 2: the Trump campaign, that is the Kamala campaign. 27 00:01:30,937 --> 00:01:32,457 Speaker 3: I think the whole thing is a needed attention. 28 00:01:32,577 --> 00:01:35,857 Speaker 2: I think so far, even honest Democrats realize this has 29 00:01:35,857 --> 00:01:38,577 Speaker 2: been a disaster. But what on the Trump side of things. 30 00:01:38,577 --> 00:01:42,057 Speaker 2: Where are you hoping to see, you know, the numbers 31 00:01:42,057 --> 00:01:44,537 Speaker 2: start to get a little better and things start to 32 00:01:44,657 --> 00:01:47,377 Speaker 2: improve between now an election day, if that's possible. 33 00:01:48,777 --> 00:01:50,897 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I still think that I'm writing a piece 34 00:01:50,937 --> 00:01:55,297 Speaker 1: on this right now. Trump is really struggling with white 35 00:01:55,337 --> 00:02:00,657 Speaker 1: college age Democrats, educated Democrats, which are rather voters who 36 00:02:00,657 --> 00:02:03,897 Speaker 1: are leaning significantly for the Democrats. And given that, as 37 00:02:03,897 --> 00:02:06,777 Speaker 1: I document, in the unprotected class, I mean the Democratic 38 00:02:06,817 --> 00:02:11,337 Speaker 1: Party and Kamala Harris just yesterday basically calling for reparations 39 00:02:11,337 --> 00:02:14,817 Speaker 1: and or talked with Charlotmagne, the god the kind of influential, 40 00:02:15,257 --> 00:02:21,097 Speaker 1: kind of African American media personality that they're pushing affirmative 41 00:02:21,137 --> 00:02:26,337 Speaker 1: action that they're pushing, you know, kind of disparate impact 42 00:02:26,337 --> 00:02:29,377 Speaker 1: things at the workplace. The fact that given all that, 43 00:02:30,417 --> 00:02:33,537 Speaker 1: and of course with immigration, that Trump is still struggling 44 00:02:33,577 --> 00:02:36,537 Speaker 1: so much with that demographic. I just think he's making 45 00:02:36,577 --> 00:02:38,857 Speaker 1: these appeals separately, but he hasn't sort of all tied 46 00:02:38,857 --> 00:02:41,417 Speaker 1: it into a bow. And there's still a little bit 47 00:02:41,457 --> 00:02:45,337 Speaker 1: of white voters being the demographic that dare not speak 48 00:02:45,377 --> 00:02:48,097 Speaker 1: its name and nobody else will speak their name either, 49 00:02:48,177 --> 00:02:51,457 Speaker 1: and make an actual appeal, not in an irresponsible way, 50 00:02:51,497 --> 00:02:54,657 Speaker 1: but just simply to say, hey, Kamalin and the Democrats 51 00:02:54,857 --> 00:02:58,217 Speaker 1: are not your friends, and you know I'm gonna look 52 00:02:58,217 --> 00:02:59,737 Speaker 1: out for you, in the same way that he has 53 00:02:59,777 --> 00:03:03,337 Speaker 1: made these appeals to African American voters, to Hispanic voters, 54 00:03:03,377 --> 00:03:06,297 Speaker 1: to women voters. He's doing a town hall today, I think, 55 00:03:06,377 --> 00:03:08,977 Speaker 1: and you know, I just think he could shore up there. 56 00:03:09,177 --> 00:03:10,417 Speaker 2: Jeremy, I don't know if you saw so. I was 57 00:03:10,457 --> 00:03:13,857 Speaker 2: on the Bill mahershow, and the chosen topic was why 58 00:03:13,897 --> 00:03:16,777 Speaker 2: Democrats have a problem with men and why Democrats are 59 00:03:16,817 --> 00:03:20,137 Speaker 2: the sort of anti masculine party. And when I tried 60 00:03:20,177 --> 00:03:22,257 Speaker 2: to discuss it, you know what the rest of the 61 00:03:22,297 --> 00:03:26,177 Speaker 2: Democrats at president wanted to talk at. What their response was, 62 00:03:26,977 --> 00:03:29,457 Speaker 2: how dare you not talk about women and minorities? 63 00:03:30,817 --> 00:03:30,977 Speaker 1: Yeah? 64 00:03:31,977 --> 00:03:34,257 Speaker 3: Sit here, I'm like, so this is this is the situation. Huh, 65 00:03:34,257 --> 00:03:36,217 Speaker 3: So you can't and it's also fasting. 66 00:03:36,217 --> 00:03:38,377 Speaker 2: I mean, you could have the the I don't know, 67 00:03:38,417 --> 00:03:39,817 Speaker 2: affinity group, whatever you want. 68 00:03:39,657 --> 00:03:41,977 Speaker 3: To call it. White guys for Harris is a thing. 69 00:03:42,497 --> 00:03:45,097 Speaker 2: I don't think anyone's allowed to have a white guys 70 00:03:45,217 --> 00:03:47,377 Speaker 2: for Trump election group. 71 00:03:47,457 --> 00:03:48,217 Speaker 3: That's not allowed. 72 00:03:49,297 --> 00:03:52,177 Speaker 1: No, of course, of course not. And you're exactly right 73 00:03:52,257 --> 00:03:56,617 Speaker 1: about men, and of course the Harris campaign is having 74 00:03:56,977 --> 00:04:00,417 Speaker 1: trouble with them for good reason because her you know, 75 00:04:00,497 --> 00:04:04,097 Speaker 1: her platform and everything that she's doing is frankly toxic 76 00:04:04,177 --> 00:04:06,617 Speaker 1: to a lot of old men out there, and you're 77 00:04:06,617 --> 00:04:10,897 Speaker 1: seeing that across ethnic groups. But but yes, you can't. Yeah, 78 00:04:11,177 --> 00:04:14,457 Speaker 1: the left will not allow you to speak about certain groups, 79 00:04:14,537 --> 00:04:17,217 Speaker 1: or they won't even let you talk about the difference 80 00:04:17,257 --> 00:04:21,137 Speaker 1: between married women who in general support Trump versus single 81 00:04:21,137 --> 00:04:26,297 Speaker 1: women who overwhelmingly will support Harris, because that might reflect 82 00:04:26,337 --> 00:04:28,737 Speaker 1: badly maybe get some of the choices that more liberal 83 00:04:28,777 --> 00:04:29,457 Speaker 1: women are making. 84 00:04:29,657 --> 00:04:31,337 Speaker 2: Yeah, I was going to say, is there anything that 85 00:04:31,377 --> 00:04:35,977 Speaker 2: Trump can do with college educated white voters? 86 00:04:37,177 --> 00:04:37,457 Speaker 1: Yeah? 87 00:04:37,497 --> 00:04:39,017 Speaker 2: I know that this is going to be you know 88 00:04:39,057 --> 00:04:43,217 Speaker 2: when you talk advanced degrees or overwhelmingly unfortunately talking especially 89 00:04:43,257 --> 00:04:48,577 Speaker 2: in the humanities, right, or overwhelmingly talking about left wing democrats. 90 00:04:48,377 --> 00:04:51,017 Speaker 2: That's no surprise he's not going to win much there. 91 00:04:51,377 --> 00:04:54,857 Speaker 2: But college educated is a very broad reality now, right, 92 00:04:54,897 --> 00:04:56,337 Speaker 2: A lot of people go to a whole range of 93 00:04:56,337 --> 00:05:00,337 Speaker 2: different colleges. Is Trump not doing as well as you 94 00:05:00,377 --> 00:05:03,097 Speaker 2: think he could with that demographic? Is it just the 95 00:05:03,577 --> 00:05:07,177 Speaker 2: cultural affinity of everybody who's gone, You know, everyone with 96 00:05:07,217 --> 00:05:10,577 Speaker 2: a university degree is hearing from all their university buddies 97 00:05:10,697 --> 00:05:13,137 Speaker 2: or professors. Depends on how old we're talking about here, 98 00:05:13,457 --> 00:05:15,857 Speaker 2: that Trump is hitler and they just have to go 99 00:05:15,897 --> 00:05:17,977 Speaker 2: along with that. Like, why it would seem to me 100 00:05:18,057 --> 00:05:22,017 Speaker 2: that the college educated demographic, particularly white college educated voters, 101 00:05:22,057 --> 00:05:25,417 Speaker 2: would see that Kamala Harris is a kind of a 102 00:05:25,417 --> 00:05:29,097 Speaker 2: preposterous candidate. I mean, there's nothing about this that should 103 00:05:29,097 --> 00:05:33,297 Speaker 2: appeal to anybody who can do even the most basic analysis. 104 00:05:34,697 --> 00:05:37,297 Speaker 1: Well, that's certainly my view, And again, I think it 105 00:05:37,457 --> 00:05:40,297 Speaker 1: just may be difficult for Trump personally to make that 106 00:05:41,577 --> 00:05:43,897 Speaker 1: case because if you look at this demographic, and I've 107 00:05:43,937 --> 00:05:46,537 Speaker 1: been kind of going through all of this sort of 108 00:05:46,577 --> 00:05:48,977 Speaker 1: nerdy survey data, and this is about fourteen to fifteen 109 00:05:49,017 --> 00:05:52,657 Speaker 1: percent of the electorate, which is white college graduates who 110 00:05:52,657 --> 00:05:55,937 Speaker 1: are self described moderates. Okay, the liberal self described liberals 111 00:05:55,937 --> 00:05:58,897 Speaker 1: and conservatives are the most consistent voters in the entire electorate. 112 00:05:59,137 --> 00:06:01,897 Speaker 1: If you're a self described liberal white college graduate, and 113 00:06:01,937 --> 00:06:04,817 Speaker 1: these are basically equal sized groups, you vote for the Democrats. 114 00:06:04,857 --> 00:06:07,697 Speaker 1: If you're a self described conservative white college democrat, these 115 00:06:07,737 --> 00:06:11,097 Speaker 1: are both about twenty seven percent of the white college 116 00:06:11,177 --> 00:06:14,617 Speaker 1: educated vote. They all vote for Republicans. But that middle group, 117 00:06:14,657 --> 00:06:17,817 Speaker 1: that forty five percent of white college age folks is 118 00:06:17,897 --> 00:06:20,977 Speaker 1: really our graduate folks, is really up for grabs, and 119 00:06:21,057 --> 00:06:25,697 Speaker 1: unfortunately they have a very negative view of Trump personally, 120 00:06:26,097 --> 00:06:28,857 Speaker 1: even though they don't necessarily maybe love some things about 121 00:06:28,857 --> 00:06:30,697 Speaker 1: either party. It's one of the reasons I think that 122 00:06:30,737 --> 00:06:33,537 Speaker 1: maybe JD. Vance is the right person to make this 123 00:06:33,697 --> 00:06:36,497 Speaker 1: argument for the campaign in the home stretch, because I 124 00:06:36,537 --> 00:06:39,617 Speaker 1: think his entire affect the way he presents himself. In 125 00:06:39,657 --> 00:06:41,577 Speaker 1: the same way that Trump is kind of an avatar 126 00:06:42,097 --> 00:06:45,737 Speaker 1: for a certain white working class voter and they love him, 127 00:06:45,857 --> 00:06:48,257 Speaker 1: I think Vance can do that a little bit for 128 00:06:48,737 --> 00:06:51,017 Speaker 1: the college graduate voter, and so I think maybe he's 129 00:06:51,057 --> 00:06:54,177 Speaker 1: the right person to kind of be making that argument 130 00:06:54,217 --> 00:06:55,497 Speaker 1: down the stretch for the campaign. 131 00:06:55,897 --> 00:06:58,817 Speaker 2: Did you see Tim Walls with his like, I don't 132 00:06:58,857 --> 00:07:01,057 Speaker 2: even know what I don't even know what a venture 133 00:07:01,097 --> 00:07:04,577 Speaker 2: capitalist does. I just think it's interesting to watch the 134 00:07:04,617 --> 00:07:10,577 Speaker 2: Democrats put forward somebody whose version of a normal like 135 00:07:10,737 --> 00:07:15,697 Speaker 2: Midwest American guy Dad whatever is somebody who's like the 136 00:07:15,697 --> 00:07:18,617 Speaker 2: bumbling buffoon dad on a sitcom. You know that, that 137 00:07:19,097 --> 00:07:20,377 Speaker 2: to me says something. 138 00:07:21,137 --> 00:07:23,897 Speaker 1: No, absolutely, I mean, he continues to be a white 139 00:07:23,897 --> 00:07:26,737 Speaker 1: minstrel show. He's a step and fetch it white guy 140 00:07:26,937 --> 00:07:30,337 Speaker 1: for the twenty first century. And the fact that he's 141 00:07:30,417 --> 00:07:34,097 Speaker 1: doing things like bragging as a governor who you know 142 00:07:34,097 --> 00:07:36,337 Speaker 1: who could be a heartbeat from the presidency. That he 143 00:07:36,377 --> 00:07:39,177 Speaker 1: doesn't even understand what one of the biggest engines of 144 00:07:39,177 --> 00:07:42,977 Speaker 1: our economy is in venture capital should be embarrassing and 145 00:07:43,017 --> 00:07:45,537 Speaker 1: disqualifying it. Again, I say that not just because not 146 00:07:45,617 --> 00:07:48,457 Speaker 1: because every one of your listeners or viewers here needs 147 00:07:48,497 --> 00:07:50,617 Speaker 1: to know what venture capitalists do. But they're not about 148 00:07:50,617 --> 00:07:52,857 Speaker 1: to step into the White House, right. We need like 149 00:07:52,897 --> 00:07:57,297 Speaker 1: a certain standard of competence and and you know, Waltz 150 00:07:57,377 --> 00:08:00,337 Speaker 1: both just doesn't have it and almost revels in not 151 00:08:00,497 --> 00:08:02,817 Speaker 1: having it. And it's it's kind of it's it's an 152 00:08:02,897 --> 00:08:06,097 Speaker 1: embarrassing view of people in general, but certainly white guys 153 00:08:06,097 --> 00:08:06,657 Speaker 1: in particular. 154 00:08:06,817 --> 00:08:08,537 Speaker 2: I feel like you could run all these these kind 155 00:08:08,577 --> 00:08:11,137 Speaker 2: of fun spoof ads. It's like, yeah, vote for Tim Walls, 156 00:08:11,417 --> 00:08:13,257 Speaker 2: because you need a guy it doesn't really know much 157 00:08:13,337 --> 00:08:14,817 Speaker 2: as vice president, you know what I mean. 158 00:08:14,937 --> 00:08:17,057 Speaker 3: You need a guy who's gonna go there. He's gonna 159 00:08:17,177 --> 00:08:19,617 Speaker 3: just you know, he's gonna just be a guy doesn't read, 160 00:08:19,777 --> 00:08:20,697 Speaker 3: doesn't know stuff. 161 00:08:21,097 --> 00:08:23,497 Speaker 2: And I can just imagine if you're a voter in 162 00:08:23,577 --> 00:08:25,817 Speaker 2: particularly the rust belt states that are really up for grabs, 163 00:08:25,817 --> 00:08:29,497 Speaker 2: you know, Pennsylvania up into Wisconsin, you say to yourself, 164 00:08:29,737 --> 00:08:30,977 Speaker 2: so this is what they think of us. 165 00:08:30,977 --> 00:08:32,977 Speaker 3: It's like, oh yeah, I can't handle the big words 166 00:08:33,017 --> 00:08:34,737 Speaker 3: and the books. Vote Tim Walls. 167 00:08:35,977 --> 00:08:37,817 Speaker 1: It's it's true. And you know, it's really got to 168 00:08:37,857 --> 00:08:40,297 Speaker 1: be painful to the Democrats as the so called party 169 00:08:40,297 --> 00:08:44,057 Speaker 1: of intellectuals that I mean truly. I mean, we all 170 00:08:44,057 --> 00:08:46,457 Speaker 1: have our biases, right, but there's just simply no way 171 00:08:47,137 --> 00:08:49,497 Speaker 1: that Trump and Vance are not by far the two 172 00:08:49,537 --> 00:08:52,297 Speaker 1: smartest people of the floor. On these tickets. I mean, 173 00:08:52,457 --> 00:08:56,897 Speaker 1: there is a significant IQ gap between these tickets and 174 00:08:57,137 --> 00:08:59,217 Speaker 1: the Democrats for them to kind of be the party 175 00:08:59,217 --> 00:09:01,577 Speaker 1: of the quote unquote so called smart people, to be 176 00:09:01,657 --> 00:09:05,577 Speaker 1: running two people as just intellectually unimpressive as Harrison Waltz, 177 00:09:05,817 --> 00:09:07,897 Speaker 1: you know, that just kind of has to stick in 178 00:09:07,937 --> 00:09:10,937 Speaker 1: their craw in a really painful way because when it 179 00:09:11,057 --> 00:09:14,377 Speaker 1: certainly obviously Vance is brilliant, and I think Trump is. 180 00:09:14,777 --> 00:09:17,337 Speaker 1: You know, he was frequently talks about him being high 181 00:09:17,337 --> 00:09:19,337 Speaker 1: I Q, but I think he actually is very underrated. 182 00:09:19,337 --> 00:09:22,337 Speaker 1: He's a He's a very smart and capable guy. Uh, 183 00:09:22,497 --> 00:09:25,177 Speaker 1: you know, whether or not people like him or dislike him, 184 00:09:25,177 --> 00:09:28,177 Speaker 1: I don't think you can underestimate his actual intelectrical ability. 185 00:09:28,377 --> 00:09:30,457 Speaker 2: I want to I don't want to celebrate early. That's 186 00:09:30,497 --> 00:09:32,257 Speaker 2: one of my mantras in life, because I've just seen 187 00:09:32,297 --> 00:09:34,177 Speaker 2: how devastating that can be to people. And you know, 188 00:09:34,457 --> 00:09:36,017 Speaker 2: you don't want to be the guy high stepping into 189 00:09:36,017 --> 00:09:37,977 Speaker 2: the end zone and you get absolutely laid out and 190 00:09:38,017 --> 00:09:39,257 Speaker 2: you fumble at the two yard line. 191 00:09:39,337 --> 00:09:41,257 Speaker 3: Right, So I get it, that's the rough one. 192 00:09:42,377 --> 00:09:47,417 Speaker 2: But but the uh uh, the question I want to 193 00:09:47,417 --> 00:09:49,737 Speaker 2: ask when we come back here is what happens if 194 00:09:49,737 --> 00:09:53,337 Speaker 2: Trump wins? In terms of the Democrat response. All Right, 195 00:09:53,377 --> 00:09:55,777 Speaker 2: we want to get into that in a second. Across America, 196 00:09:55,857 --> 00:09:58,377 Speaker 2: a so called strange accidents are becoming the new normal, 197 00:09:58,577 --> 00:10:02,297 Speaker 2: and our sponsor, Stansbury Research, says that you need to 198 00:10:02,337 --> 00:10:04,417 Speaker 2: know that this is part of a broader trend nine 199 00:10:04,417 --> 00:10:06,777 Speaker 2: on one call centers going offline for hours at a time. 200 00:10:07,457 --> 00:10:10,257 Speaker 2: He may have read that medical errors have increased dramat 201 00:10:10,537 --> 00:10:13,577 Speaker 2: since twenty twenty. Most people understand there's something really wrong 202 00:10:13,817 --> 00:10:18,777 Speaker 2: with this country infrastructure wise. Systemically, there are problems. The 203 00:10:18,777 --> 00:10:21,857 Speaker 2: wheels are falling off. Learn what's really happening and why, 204 00:10:21,897 --> 00:10:24,897 Speaker 2: and how you can prepare and how you can actually 205 00:10:25,617 --> 00:10:28,977 Speaker 2: make smart decisions with your money regarding this. At America 206 00:10:29,057 --> 00:10:32,737 Speaker 2: disaster dot com, a massive new accident could be coming 207 00:10:32,737 --> 00:10:35,497 Speaker 2: to the country. Stansburg Research wants to tell you what 208 00:10:35,537 --> 00:10:37,577 Speaker 2: they see coming and what you need to do. Go 209 00:10:37,697 --> 00:10:40,777 Speaker 2: to America disaster dot com. It's America disaster dot com 210 00:10:40,777 --> 00:10:46,497 Speaker 2: paid for by Stansbury Research. Okay, so how do you say, like, 211 00:10:46,577 --> 00:10:48,897 Speaker 2: let's just have for the fun of conversation right now. 212 00:10:48,897 --> 00:10:50,177 Speaker 2: But this will be great if we end up playing 213 00:10:50,217 --> 00:10:52,217 Speaker 2: this after a Trump win and you know you nail everything. 214 00:10:52,257 --> 00:10:57,097 Speaker 2: So what do they do if Donald Trump wins this election? Handily, 215 00:10:57,257 --> 00:11:00,057 Speaker 2: So it's not like dragged out over days. He wins 216 00:11:00,097 --> 00:11:02,857 Speaker 2: the swing states, he's he's going to be the president. 217 00:11:03,817 --> 00:11:04,857 Speaker 2: What do you see happening? 218 00:11:06,257 --> 00:11:08,137 Speaker 1: Well, I saw Mark Halper and I think sort of 219 00:11:08,177 --> 00:11:10,297 Speaker 1: saying that this would be like the biggest mental health 220 00:11:10,377 --> 00:11:13,217 Speaker 1: crisis in the history of America because you take these 221 00:11:13,257 --> 00:11:15,697 Speaker 1: Democrats and by the way, again I'm not being partisan here, 222 00:11:15,737 --> 00:11:18,257 Speaker 1: this is all data driven. I mean, this is already 223 00:11:18,337 --> 00:11:25,377 Speaker 1: a much more mentally unwell population by self description than Republicans. 224 00:11:25,777 --> 00:11:28,857 Speaker 1: And you kind of add this stresser of Orange Hitler 225 00:11:29,457 --> 00:11:31,137 Speaker 1: being in the White House, and I think a lot 226 00:11:31,177 --> 00:11:33,297 Speaker 1: of these guys are just gonna lose it. And I 227 00:11:33,377 --> 00:11:37,337 Speaker 1: do worry also, of course, that we might have a 228 00:11:37,777 --> 00:11:40,177 Speaker 1: January six type thing, but for real, not a fake 229 00:11:40,217 --> 00:11:43,057 Speaker 1: insurrection like the one that the Democrats, you know, took 230 00:11:43,097 --> 00:11:45,777 Speaker 1: a rally that got out of hand with a couple 231 00:11:45,817 --> 00:11:50,217 Speaker 1: hundred people, but like that, the Democrats, you know, might 232 00:11:50,297 --> 00:11:55,977 Speaker 1: actually actively justify attempting to keep him, you know, from 233 00:11:56,017 --> 00:11:59,017 Speaker 1: assuming office. And certainly they've shown with their law fair 234 00:11:59,017 --> 00:12:00,857 Speaker 1: and everything else they've done with Trump that they really 235 00:12:00,857 --> 00:12:05,337 Speaker 1: won't stop at anything. So it's going to be concerning. 236 00:12:05,377 --> 00:12:07,617 Speaker 1: I don't think we can let our guard down, even 237 00:12:07,657 --> 00:12:10,217 Speaker 1: if we get a great result on election night, will 238 00:12:10,257 --> 00:12:11,337 Speaker 1: just be the first step. 239 00:12:11,497 --> 00:12:13,617 Speaker 2: You think, riots though, because I you know, I also 240 00:12:14,257 --> 00:12:15,897 Speaker 2: you have to go watch the Bill mar episode I 241 00:12:15,937 --> 00:12:17,377 Speaker 2: was on because you'll see some of these things. It 242 00:12:17,417 --> 00:12:20,057 Speaker 2: was actually a lot of fun for me, even though 243 00:12:20,057 --> 00:12:22,897 Speaker 2: they were all hating on me. The audience did laugh 244 00:12:22,897 --> 00:12:25,137 Speaker 2: at a few things that I said, But I pointed out 245 00:12:25,137 --> 00:12:26,937 Speaker 2: that the twenty twenty election, this has never talked to 246 00:12:26,937 --> 00:12:29,097 Speaker 2: it anymore. In my I was living in New York 247 00:12:29,097 --> 00:12:35,177 Speaker 2: at the time. There were preparations for the guaranteed mass 248 00:12:35,297 --> 00:12:38,737 Speaker 2: riots if Donald Trump won, by businesses, by people who 249 00:12:38,897 --> 00:12:40,737 Speaker 2: this wasn't a political thing. It was I need to 250 00:12:40,777 --> 00:12:44,497 Speaker 2: board up my business on election day and have it 251 00:12:44,537 --> 00:12:46,737 Speaker 2: so that they can't just you know, take everything, you know, 252 00:12:46,777 --> 00:12:49,657 Speaker 2: break the windows, steal everything. Of course, we know ended 253 00:12:49,737 --> 00:12:51,977 Speaker 2: up happening. Donald Trump ended up not becoming president. But 254 00:12:52,617 --> 00:12:56,217 Speaker 2: I feel like this time around, if Trump wins, it 255 00:12:56,257 --> 00:12:58,857 Speaker 2: could be even crazier than that in some ways, because 256 00:12:58,857 --> 00:13:01,697 Speaker 2: they've all been fed the insurrection narrative and the prosecutions 257 00:13:01,737 --> 00:13:02,857 Speaker 2: of Trump and all the rest of it. 258 00:13:05,257 --> 00:13:08,137 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I think absolutely it's a risk. I 259 00:13:08,177 --> 00:13:10,977 Speaker 1: do think that part of again my opt about twenty 260 00:13:11,017 --> 00:13:13,137 Speaker 1: twenty four, as I do think that in some ways, 261 00:13:13,817 --> 00:13:16,137 Speaker 1: in their heart of hearts, some of the folks, even 262 00:13:16,417 --> 00:13:19,377 Speaker 1: who do not like Trump, are kind of resigned to 263 00:13:19,457 --> 00:13:22,977 Speaker 1: what is probably coming, and so there may be a 264 00:13:23,057 --> 00:13:25,897 Speaker 1: little bit more of an attempt to restore order on 265 00:13:26,177 --> 00:13:30,057 Speaker 1: those first part. But you know, like the activist left 266 00:13:30,097 --> 00:13:33,857 Speaker 1: is going to go absolutely nuts, and it'll be fascinating 267 00:13:33,897 --> 00:13:36,617 Speaker 1: to kind of see, yeah, that's o trade. Even in 268 00:13:36,657 --> 00:13:39,417 Speaker 1: twenty sixteen. Of course, we had this at Trump's inauguration 269 00:13:39,537 --> 00:13:43,177 Speaker 1: and it's it's sort of been memory hold. But you know, 270 00:13:43,257 --> 00:13:45,257 Speaker 1: the left nuts, they're crazy. That's why we're in the 271 00:13:45,297 --> 00:13:48,617 Speaker 1: situation we're in, and we just need to we need 272 00:13:48,657 --> 00:13:50,617 Speaker 1: to just do everything we can to make sure that 273 00:13:50,657 --> 00:13:54,657 Speaker 1: we win by the type of margin that we'll will 274 00:13:54,697 --> 00:13:57,017 Speaker 1: cause them to think twice before they do anything stupid. 275 00:13:57,497 --> 00:14:01,217 Speaker 2: You know, you've got to be prepared these days, there's crime, 276 00:14:01,537 --> 00:14:04,537 Speaker 2: there's anarchy, things can happen on the streets.

And confidence. 306 00:15:29,177 --> 00:15:32,497 Speaker 1: But I just you know, we're up on that in 307 00:15:32,577 --> 00:15:35,377 Speaker 1: the polls by seven or eight points in pretty much 308 00:15:35,377 --> 00:15:38,737 Speaker 1: everything that's been out recently, and I think we're going 309 00:15:38,817 --> 00:15:41,337 Speaker 1: to win that by at least that. In my view, 310 00:15:41,697 --> 00:15:42,977 Speaker 1: I think Tester is going to lose. 311 00:15:43,217 --> 00:15:44,257 Speaker 3: Why is the significant? 312 00:15:44,297 --> 00:15:46,457 Speaker 2: Why is Tester call he's the incumbent like he's Why 313 00:15:46,497 --> 00:15:48,697 Speaker 2: is he collapsing? Is it just just whole like I'm 314 00:15:49,577 --> 00:15:52,697 Speaker 2: I'm a maverick Democrat who likes cowboy boots, Like is 315 00:15:52,737 --> 00:15:53,937 Speaker 2: that just not working this time? 316 00:15:55,017 --> 00:15:56,897 Speaker 1: It really is? I mean a little bit. The New 317 00:15:56,977 --> 00:15:59,217 Speaker 1: York Times likes to run these articles that says, Oh, 318 00:15:59,257 --> 00:16:01,857 Speaker 1: it's all these newcomers, and yeah, I mean that's that's certainly, 319 00:16:03,057 --> 00:16:04,857 Speaker 1: you know, that's a that's a piece of it. But 320 00:16:05,377 --> 00:16:10,017 Speaker 1: really I think it's just his stick as a moderate Democrat, 321 00:16:10,457 --> 00:16:14,057 Speaker 1: which is almost become an oxymoron. It just doesn't work anymore. 322 00:16:14,057 --> 00:16:17,057 Speaker 1: He's not he's he has voted for every single one 323 00:16:17,497 --> 00:16:21,377 Speaker 1: of the Democrats radical judges and policies. And we've just 324 00:16:21,457 --> 00:16:25,217 Speaker 1: been reminding Montana voters who are really quite conservative about 325 00:16:25,217 --> 00:16:27,537 Speaker 1: that we have a capable candidate and Tim Sheey, and 326 00:16:28,057 --> 00:16:29,937 Speaker 1: it's just the votes are just not going to be 327 00:16:29,977 --> 00:16:33,017 Speaker 1: there for him. And I know that we're we're kind 328 00:16:33,017 --> 00:16:34,577 Speaker 1: of excited about that. So I think we're going to 329 00:16:34,657 --> 00:16:38,737 Speaker 1: win that Senate race. And I'm feeling pretty good about 330 00:16:39,097 --> 00:16:42,137 Speaker 1: Ohio as well. And I think the NRSC just put 331 00:16:42,137 --> 00:16:45,177 Speaker 1: out a poll showing us up in Wisconsin, and I 332 00:16:45,177 --> 00:16:47,497 Speaker 1: think that that one could well break for us. And look, 333 00:16:47,537 --> 00:16:50,377 Speaker 1: if everything goes really right, it's not impossible we pick 334 00:16:50,497 --> 00:16:53,977 Speaker 1: up six or seven Senate seats this cycle, but I 335 00:16:53,977 --> 00:16:56,657 Speaker 1: think at least we're going to pick up the three 336 00:16:56,857 --> 00:16:59,417 Speaker 1: or so that at the kind of not worst case, 337 00:16:59,457 --> 00:17:01,857 Speaker 1: but even in a not such a great scenario that 338 00:17:01,937 --> 00:17:04,817 Speaker 1: are going to give us a comfortable Senate majority. And 339 00:17:04,817 --> 00:17:07,977 Speaker 1: the reason why that would be important is even if, unfortunately, 340 00:17:08,057 --> 00:17:12,737 Speaker 1: if we wound up unfortunate in the presidential race, Harris 341 00:17:12,737 --> 00:17:16,257 Speaker 1: would really be blocked from doing much if we controlled 342 00:17:16,297 --> 00:17:19,377 Speaker 1: the Senate and possibly the House, so we could really 343 00:17:19,457 --> 00:17:25,377 Speaker 1: kind of, you know, sort of keep that presidency from 344 00:17:25,417 --> 00:17:28,257 Speaker 1: taking off, so I have reasons to be optimistic. 345 00:17:28,857 --> 00:17:33,657 Speaker 2: Jeremy Carl of the Claremont Institute and Unprotected Classes, his book, Jeremy, 346 00:17:33,697 --> 00:17:34,297 Speaker 2: great to have you on. 347 00:17:34,417 --> 00:17:35,097 Speaker 3: We'll talk to you soon. 348 00:17:36,097 --> 00:17:37,417 Speaker 1: Absolutely, but pleasure to be on
