Speaker 1: There are eighty four days left until the last American
Speaker 1: will cast a vote in the twenty twenty four election
Speaker 1: that will decide the destiny of the Republic because there
Speaker 1: is a choice on the ballot, and it isn't between
Speaker 1: the man and the woman. It's between an idea that
Speaker 1: is much bigger. It's between freedom and control. This is
Speaker 1: the warning. Kamala Harris, the woman from a Jamaican immigrant
Speaker 1: father and an Indian mother who became a prosecutor, a
Speaker 1: United States senator, vice president of the United States, the
Speaker 1: Democratic nominee, is the candidate for American freedom, running against
Speaker 1: the real deal, legitimate Orange fascists. Hey, let me just
Speaker 1: say America will never be ready for an Orange president
Speaker 1: ever again. The fact of the matter is that Donald
Speaker 1: Trump is melting down. His ego has been incinerated. And
Speaker 1: this is important to remember. There is no flower in
Speaker 1: all the world more delicate than the male ego. And
Speaker 1: amongst all of the world's most delicate flowers, there is
Speaker 1: no petal, nothing so fragile as the Trump bloom. And
Speaker 1: the bloom is off that turn, so to speak, Donald
Speaker 1: Trump was measuring the drapes. The apigy of his campaign
Speaker 1: was the exact moment cynicism decided to show us in
Speaker 1: resplendent glory. All that's achievable when you put nothing ahead
Speaker 1: of principle except your ego in the bottom line, And
Speaker 1: of course, I'm talking about billionaire loudmouth know it all,
Speaker 1: the most unctious American, Bill Lackman, now the valuable billionaire,
Speaker 1: told us he would soon reveal to us why it
Speaker 1: is that he endores Trump. Now, of course, Bill Ackman
Speaker 1: is a genius investor, made billions of dollars self made
Speaker 1: because he made good picks. But when it comes to politics,
Speaker 1: being good at one thing isn't an indicator at being
Speaker 1: good as well connection to the American people, to real life,
Speaker 1: to real happenings. And so Bill Ackman in the moment
Speaker 1: that Donald Trump seemed unbeatable through in and he promised
Speaker 1: us to treat us. And so, according to the New
Speaker 1: York Times, there was Bill Ackman sitting next to Donald Trump.
Speaker 1: I wonder what they talked about. Did Bill ask Donald
Speaker 1: what's it like to grab the woman by the pussy?
Speaker 1: Did he ask him what it's like to rape somebody?
Speaker 1: What it's like to go through fellony booking? What's it
Speaker 1: like to ask if the military could fire on peaceful protesters.
Speaker 1: Did he ask why it is that Donald Trump didn't
Speaker 1: want a wounded American warrior around him. Did he asked
Speaker 1: why he couldn't be bothered to go pay homage at
Speaker 1: an American cemetery in France. No, he didn't ask him
Speaker 1: about any of those things. He didn't ask him why
Speaker 1: he said there's good people on both sides. He didn't
Speaker 1: ask him why he dined with the neo Nazi Nick Flantes.
Speaker 1: What he did was he evaluated to return, like a
Speaker 1: lot of people. And now that ship is sinking. It's
Speaker 1: appropriate that Donald Trump would put the anthem from the
Speaker 1: movie Titanic at his campaign rally, because that's precisely what's happening.
Speaker 1: He's going down, it's sinking, and now Trump is retreating.
Speaker 1: They've given up on August. They'll make their stand in September,
Speaker 1: after the successful Democratic Convention. They'll be six to eight
Speaker 1: points behind, a massive, massive deficit. But Trump will have
Speaker 1: a good day. He will get the ball back. Events
Speaker 1: will make it so. It's all part of the test,
Speaker 1: the character test that Kamala Harris is passing so brilliantly,
Speaker 1: so phenomenally in her exquisite month as the presumptive Democratic nominee.
Speaker 1: For the first time in a long time, there is
Speaker 1: somebody who can articulate to the American people the promise
Speaker 1: in the premise of better. And it's important because politics
Speaker 1: is about better, doing better. And there is a force
Speaker 1: in the country that is attached to a movement that
Speaker 1: has flared up and been stamped out, and flared up
Speaker 1: again and been stamped down. Its antecedents are the Confederacy,
Speaker 1: the ku Klux Klan, the America First Movement, the Booned,
Speaker 1: all of the forces that have made declarations that their creed,
Speaker 1: that their race, that there whatever makes them somehow a
Speaker 1: superior American who can trample on the rights of others
Speaker 1: and take as much as they want. These people have
Speaker 1: always existed in American life. They have always been our
Speaker 1: new monarchs in waiting, the dukes in search of their king.
Speaker 1: Elon Musk is one of these people. Despite all the
Speaker 1: riches in the world, he wants more and they want
Speaker 1: to take it from you. They want to take the
Speaker 1: most elementary things, like truth, because if you can look
Speaker 1: somebody in the face and lie to them, tell them
Speaker 1: that you were in a helicopter crash that you weren't
Speaker 1: and make them believe it. You've stolen their dignity. It's
Speaker 1: a terrible thing, but we've seen it play out. That's
Speaker 1: what trump Ism is. It is a surrender to a
Speaker 1: culture personality that requires submission. Joining MAGA is an easy thing.
Speaker 1: All you have to do is give up independent thought,
Speaker 1: independent thinking. If the party tells you there's four fingers,
Speaker 1: even though you see three. Admission is easy. Just say four.
Speaker 1: Make the compromise, make the accommodation. Do it. That's how
Speaker 1: you get ahead. Trade in every conviction, every principle, right,
Speaker 1: like JD. Vance. Well, let's have a test. The person
Speaker 1: who will win this election is going to be the
Speaker 1: better person, because the American people are good people, and
Speaker 1: the American people want a decent president, not a rapist,
Speaker 1: not a convicted fellow, not Donald Trump, the worst president
Speaker 1: in American history. Soon the entire country will be focused
Speaker 1: when Vice President Harris accepts the Democratic nomination, like John Kennedy,
Speaker 1: like Lyndon Johnson, like James Earl Carter, like Bill Clinton,
Speaker 1: like Barack Obama, like Joe Biden, like Franklin Roosevelt, and
Speaker 1: Harry Truman. Vice President Kamala Harris has been touched by
Speaker 1: that hand of destiny. Dwight Eisenhower was a lieutenant colonel
Speaker 1: in the Army on the eve of the Second World
Speaker 1: War and it touched him. Martin Luther King was in
Speaker 1: his twenties when it touched him. It's touched Kamala Harris.
Speaker 1: She's a star now in the center of the ring.
Speaker 1: And man, oh man, is she shining bright. It's an
Speaker 1: American star. It's red, white and blue, and it stands
Speaker 1: opposed to the dogmas and the doctrines of control and
Speaker 1: taking that says a political party, and politicians can say
Speaker 1: to a woman in a free country, when you can
Speaker 1: get pregnant, what you can do with that pregnancy, what
Speaker 1: type of birth control you can take, and when you
Speaker 1: can take it? That will lie and lie some more
Speaker 1: about issues big and small. For power. They can't be
Speaker 1: trusted because they broke the trust. When Donald Trump lost
Speaker 1: in an election, he incited an insurrection. He's a shameful
Speaker 1: man who's done despicable things, but none worse than the
Speaker 1: desecration of his presidential oath. It is an act of ignominy,
Speaker 1: and soon judgment day will be at hand. Kamala Harris
Speaker 1: will stand for the American way of life, the idea
Speaker 1: that the people are sovereign, and we decide who has
Speaker 1: temporary power with great limits attached. That's the question at hand,
Speaker 1: and we'll settle it up eighty four days from now.
Speaker 1: Between now and then, there'll be ups and downs, hills
Speaker 1: and valleys. Keep a steady strain, get involved, make phone calls,
Speaker 1: write postcards, write checks, do what you can. You must
Speaker 1: do something. Citizenship requires your activity. Eighty four days to go.
