Yeah, so I mentioned that 28 00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:46,319 Speaker 3: Independence Day is one hundred and twenty three days away. 29 00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:50,400 Speaker 3: I mean yeah, I mean technically yesterday, so we were 30 00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:53,320 Speaker 3: talking about what about three hundred and sixty four before 31 00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:55,680 Speaker 3: we roll around to another one. But I mean, really, 32 00:01:56,800 --> 00:02:00,520 Speaker 3: how independent do you feel right now? How good you feel? 33 00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:01,520 Speaker 3: How free do you feel? 34 00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:04,160 Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, a lot. 35 00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:07,160 Speaker 3: Of folks are taking the extended holiday weekend, but no, 36 00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:11,000 Speaker 3: with only twenty four percent of people feeling like the 37 00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:14,160 Speaker 3: country is heading in the right direction, don't exactly have 38 00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:16,560 Speaker 3: a lot of people that are feeling all that great 39 00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:19,000 Speaker 3: about things right And by the way, seriously, who are 40 00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:22,120 Speaker 3: those people you know you'll see twenty four percent approve 41 00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:25,720 Speaker 3: in the direction of the country. I mean, even the 42 00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:30,320 Speaker 3: leftist in your life. Do you know anybody who goes, yeah, 43 00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:31,840 Speaker 3: I mean like this is great, Like they take a 44 00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:34,840 Speaker 3: look at Joe Biden and think, you know what I 45 00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:37,799 Speaker 3: need in my life is more of that guy's sweet 46 00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:38,799 Speaker 3: political action. 47 00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:42,280 Speaker 1: Because I'm just saying it's amazing. I mean, who does that, right? 48 00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:45,880 Speaker 3: So the twenty four percent of people who are like, yes, 49 00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:50,560 Speaker 3: let's keep doing this, I don't get it. But anyway, 50 00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:53,640 Speaker 3: for the greater than three quarters of Americans that do 51 00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:59,960 Speaker 3: get it, I haven't exactly felt like celebrating, or maybe 52 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:01,760 Speaker 3: better say that you got a lot of folks that 53 00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:04,239 Speaker 3: just can't afford to celebrate. I mean, after all, you 54 00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:06,560 Speaker 3: got to be making twenty one percent more money today 55 00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:09,560 Speaker 3: to simply afford the same stuff that you bought four 56 00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:13,040 Speaker 3: years ago today. And here's the hint that you already 57 00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:18,520 Speaker 3: knew you are not. The average person is making eighteen 58 00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:22,480 Speaker 3: percent more today than four years ago. So yeah, I mean, 59 00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:25,480 Speaker 3: the odds are you are worse off than you were 60 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:29,960 Speaker 3: four years ago today. And as I've always said, you 61 00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:33,840 Speaker 3: can lot of people about what policy will do, and 62 00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:35,600 Speaker 3: you're always going to have those that are going to 63 00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:37,800 Speaker 3: be inclined to believe you, right. I mean, if you 64 00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:40,640 Speaker 3: are someone who lines up behind a politician and politician lies, 65 00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:43,680 Speaker 3: he might be willing to believe that politician. But what 66 00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:47,480 Speaker 3: you can't do you can't lie to people about what 67 00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:49,160 Speaker 3: is or is and in the wallet because. 68 00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:53,040 Speaker 1: They know there's not money there. There's no line that's 69 00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:53,680 Speaker 1: going to change that. 70 00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:57,840 Speaker 3: And that is just the first and a long line 71 00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:01,840 Speaker 3: of examples of what we're unhappy about. You know, we 72 00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:05,560 Speaker 3: don't approve pretty much anything that this president chooses to do. 73 00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:08,320 Speaker 3: If you take a look at Biden's approval rating on 74 00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:12,440 Speaker 3: all of the issues, there's like nothing, there's nothing where 75 00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:14,600 Speaker 3: we look at him and go, yes, you've at least 76 00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:16,720 Speaker 3: gotten that one, right. If you take a look at 77 00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:20,320 Speaker 3: his approval rating on the economy overall average of the polls, 78 00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:23,480 Speaker 3: Real Clear Politics average economy, it's forty percent right now, 79 00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:26,840 Speaker 3: and it gets worse from there. Foreign policy thirty four percent, 80 00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:32,240 Speaker 3: the Israel Hamas war specifically thirty one percent, inflation thirty 81 00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:37,880 Speaker 3: five percent, crime thirty eight immigration thirty two. So, in 82 00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:43,279 Speaker 3: other words, pretty much everything everything that dementia Joe chooses 83 00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:46,640 Speaker 3: to do turns the poop, right, I mean, pretty much 84 00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:50,800 Speaker 3: everything he does is bad, which is pretty hard to 85 00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:54,160 Speaker 3: make happen. It's almost like, if you intentionally sought out 86 00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:58,479 Speaker 3: to be a really bad president, could you be more successful. 87 00:04:57,960 --> 00:04:59,120 Speaker 1: Than Joe Biden has been? 88 00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:03,719 Speaker 3: In in that regard, and that takes me to independence, 89 00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:07,960 Speaker 3: say happening in one hundred and twenty three days, because 90 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:11,720 Speaker 3: one hundred and twenty three days is election day, and 91 00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:16,880 Speaker 3: that is the day we can declare independence from endless 92 00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:20,920 Speaker 3: wars due to Biden's weakness, the day that we can 93 00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:28,160 Speaker 3: declare our independence from open borders and empty wallets. And yes, 94 00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:33,240 Speaker 3: I mean no slight to our country's holiday. No, no 95 00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:36,720 Speaker 3: slight to the declaration of independence. It is worth celebrating, 96 00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:40,520 Speaker 3: but every bit is important to celebrating its protecting it, 97 00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:42,840 Speaker 3: which you know, if we keep going the way we're going, 98 00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:46,919 Speaker 3: not so good. And then you got one hundred and 99 00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:49,159 Speaker 3: ninety nine days from today, not that I'm counting, but 100 00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:51,280 Speaker 3: we are now under two hundred days from the day 101 00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:55,200 Speaker 3: that's sanity. I'm like, like, literally, at this point, sanity 102 00:05:57,200 --> 00:06:01,279 Speaker 3: can be restored to the United States. That's inauguration Day. 103 00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:04,560 Speaker 3: That is, provided that each and every one of us 104 00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:08,599 Speaker 3: do everything that we can do to vote early and 105 00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:10,120 Speaker 3: to help turn out the vote. We're going to be 106 00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:12,159 Speaker 3: talking about that during the course of the show today 107 00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:14,680 Speaker 3: because it is all hands on deck for every one 108 00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:17,119 Speaker 3: of us for the next one hundred and twenty three days. 109 00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:21,480 Speaker 3: We cannot take anything for granted, regardless of who's running 110 00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:25,080 Speaker 3: for president. But yeah, speaking of which, and where we 111 00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:30,000 Speaker 3: started here at the onset, what will George do? He's 112 00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:33,200 Speaker 3: not King George, but he almost has the power of 113 00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:38,159 Speaker 3: King George historically at this point. So yeah, in the 114 00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:43,520 Speaker 3: grand scheme of things not going well, just let's say work, 115 00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:46,520 Speaker 3: for example, take your work for a moment. You know 116 00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:50,599 Speaker 3: things aren't going well at work if somebody comes to 117 00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:54,640 Speaker 3: you and they're on the level and they go, hey, 118 00:06:54,960 --> 00:07:00,680 Speaker 3: your boss over there, they have dementia. I mean, just 119 00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:05,560 Speaker 3: straight up you're asked if your boss has dementia. Probably 120 00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:10,440 Speaker 3: has never happened, right, But here we are, and if 121 00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:14,320 Speaker 3: you are White House Press Secretary Queen Jean Pierre, I 122 00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:19,800 Speaker 3: mean she has specifically, the question on Tuesday to KJP 123 00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:23,440 Speaker 3: by a White House correspondent was this, does President Biden 124 00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:26,880 Speaker 3: at eighty one years old, have Alzheimer's or any form 125 00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:31,280 Speaker 3: of dementia or degenerative illness that causes these sorts of lapses. 126 00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:32,960 Speaker 1: And it's a yes or no question. 127 00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:37,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, just kind of you know, straight up typical question 128 00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:39,400 Speaker 3: that you're gonna lob to the White House Press Secretary. 129 00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:41,720 Speaker 3: I mean, this is the state of affairs to where like, 130 00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:44,600 Speaker 3: that's a totally legit question to be asking. And her 131 00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:47,600 Speaker 3: answer was this, she said, are you ready for it? 132 00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:51,200 Speaker 3: And it was like a one Mississippi right there, because 133 00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:53,040 Speaker 3: we're like one Mississippi. When she says are. 134 00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:53,560 Speaker 1: You ready for it? 135 00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:56,400 Speaker 3: I'm like, yeah, you geta level with us. And then 136 00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:58,640 Speaker 3: she came back and said, it's a no. It's a no. 137 00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:02,160 Speaker 3: And I hope that you're asking the other guy the 138 00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:06,760 Speaker 3: same exact question, which, by the way, I also hope happens, 139 00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:11,240 Speaker 3: because I mean, make no mistake, there is entertainment to 140 00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:15,440 Speaker 3: be had by a reporter walking up to Trump and saying, hey, 141 00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:20,840 Speaker 3: mister President, so kareem. Jean Pierre says, Joe Biden doesn't 142 00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:24,000 Speaker 3: have dementia, but she thought I should ask you if 143 00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:27,440 Speaker 3: you do. I mean, what do you think the answer 144 00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:31,320 Speaker 3: to that one is? I mean, possibilities regarding his response 145 00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:38,280 Speaker 3: endless and probably quite entertaining. But what isn't so entertaining. 146 00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:41,800 Speaker 3: It is just what a laughing stock this country currently is. 147 00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:43,640 Speaker 3: You know, take a look at Independence Day. I take 148 00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:47,559 Speaker 3: a look at you know, are standing on the world stage. 149 00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:50,400 Speaker 3: We have all these wars and all this conflict that 150 00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:53,280 Speaker 3: has been playing out. Why because Joe Biden is weak. 151 00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:58,520 Speaker 3: As simple as that, none of it happens if Joe 152 00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:01,800 Speaker 3: Biden isn't president of the United States. The collapse of 153 00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:07,439 Speaker 3: Afghanistan didn't happen the way it did. Putin never invades Ukraine. 154 00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:12,000 Speaker 3: There's no way that you would have had Hamas that 155 00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:15,400 Speaker 3: would have been comfortable carrying out the attack on Israel 156 00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:19,959 Speaker 3: because you know what Trump would have done. Just every 157 00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:23,080 Speaker 3: time you turn around, the weakness has manifested itself in 158 00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:26,680 Speaker 3: ways that make the entire world lass safe. Every day 159 00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:29,920 Speaker 3: that Joe Biden as President of the United States, we're 160 00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:33,800 Speaker 3: less safe in our own communities. The world is less safe. Yeah, 161 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:39,520 Speaker 3: it's not entertaining. When you think about Shijing Ping, when 162 00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:41,720 Speaker 3: you think about Vladimir Putin, you think about the mulas 163 00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:44,360 Speaker 3: and Ran, when you think about Lilla racket man. You 164 00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:45,800 Speaker 3: know I was thinking about this. You think about Kim 165 00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:49,240 Speaker 3: Jong un, you think about Lullar racket man. Who's the 166 00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:53,079 Speaker 3: more sane seeming right now, like you know, who's of 167 00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:56,720 Speaker 3: sounder mind at this point, Kim Jong un or President 168 00:09:56,720 --> 00:10:00,960 Speaker 3: of Binen. I mean that that can't be good that 169 00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:05,200 Speaker 3: we're possibly having that conversation either. So yeah, I mean, look, 170 00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:08,240 Speaker 3: they're all watching Joe, They're all calculating next moves based 171 00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:12,680 Speaker 3: on his incompetence. So yeah, what isn't funny is that 172 00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:16,720 Speaker 3: if dementia Joe can no longer go, what's behind door 173 00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:18,520 Speaker 3: number two isn't exactly any better? 174 00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:20,040 Speaker 1: And she cackles. 175 00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:22,640 Speaker 3: And by the way, make no mistake, if Joe's and 176 00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:26,400 Speaker 3: no go all roads to the Democrat nomination they go 177 00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:29,840 Speaker 3: through James Clyburn and Kamala Harris. I mean those that 178 00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:32,440 Speaker 3: think that she could just simply be slipped aside for 179 00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:35,200 Speaker 3: I don't know, like the gret who stole Christmas, you know, 180 00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:38,000 Speaker 3: by locking down Michigan during the pandemic then fleeing the Florida. 181 00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:40,840 Speaker 3: I don't think they've been paying enough attention. And by 182 00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:43,320 Speaker 3: the way, just on that note, there's only been one poll, 183 00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:46,679 Speaker 3: as a Democrat internal poll that came out at the 184 00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:49,880 Speaker 3: end of last week after the debate, head ahead with Trump. 185 00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:53,920 Speaker 3: Trump was ahead of all of the door number three options, 186 00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:57,840 Speaker 3: you know, the ones behind the vice president. But I 187 00:10:57,920 --> 00:11:01,960 Speaker 3: get the significance of the Gret in Michigan, Michigan a 188 00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:05,760 Speaker 3: critical state. But if people actually got to know her. 189 00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:09,120 Speaker 3: I'm not sure that necessarily I portends good things for 190 00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:13,440 Speaker 3: her anyway. But I'll also speak a little bit later 191 00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:17,800 Speaker 3: in the show about what happens in broker conventions and 192 00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:20,160 Speaker 3: white is that we haven't had one in either party 193 00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:21,120 Speaker 3: in a really long time. 194 00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:22,040 Speaker 1: Here's the hint. 195 00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:24,400 Speaker 3: Tends not to work out too well for the party 196 00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:26,200 Speaker 3: that is traveling down that path. 197 00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:30,000 Speaker 1: See you take a look at all this. 198 00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:33,840 Speaker 3: Has there ever been a greater indication this Independence Day 199 00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:37,880 Speaker 3: weekend that we need to make America great again than 200 00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:41,200 Speaker 3: all of this? And again, what does this say about 201 00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:43,120 Speaker 3: the leader of the semi free world that people are 202 00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:47,000 Speaker 3: waiting with baited breath to see Democrat hack operative? George 203 00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:50,640 Speaker 3: Stefanopolis played the role of Caesar And so, yeah, should 204 00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:52,560 Speaker 3: Joe go or should he stay? 205 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:52,760 Speaker 4: Now? 206 00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:57,040 Speaker 3: So about this, you know you're a week president when 207 00:11:57,360 --> 00:12:03,040 Speaker 3: George Stefanopolis holds the keys at this point, people know 208 00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:05,600 Speaker 3: if Joe will drop out, two people you should probably ask. 209 00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:11,000 Speaker 3: The first would be the doctor, the doctor without a doctor, 210 00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:14,920 Speaker 3: and even Jill Biden because she clearly enjoys being president 211 00:12:14,920 --> 00:12:16,920 Speaker 3: of the United States. You know a lot of people wondered, Hey, 212 00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:18,680 Speaker 3: who is it that actually runs the show. You know 213 00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:20,760 Speaker 3: you've had the thoughts about, hey, it might still be 214 00:12:20,800 --> 00:12:23,880 Speaker 3: the Big Oh, or maybe you know in Obama proxy 215 00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:26,960 Speaker 3: like Susan Rice. Just take a look at what's happened 216 00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:30,960 Speaker 3: since the debate. Jill Biden clearly loves being President of 217 00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:34,000 Speaker 3: the United States. The second person you should ask is 218 00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:37,560 Speaker 3: George Stefanopolis today. Will Biden get the thumbs up meaning 219 00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:41,120 Speaker 3: that Stephanopolis is prepared to help carry Biden across the 220 00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:44,160 Speaker 3: November fifth finish line, or is again the thumbs down 221 00:12:45,080 --> 00:12:49,240 Speaker 3: meaning that George asks real questions, he demands real answers, 222 00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:53,120 Speaker 3: that he doesn't edit Joe's blank stares, his coughs, or 223 00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:56,559 Speaker 3: the mumbles out of the interview. Here's one thing you 224 00:12:56,600 --> 00:13:00,120 Speaker 3: can count on from President Biden's interview with Stephanopolis today. 225 00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:04,320 Speaker 3: You're gonna have the answer to that question today. Originally 226 00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:07,520 Speaker 3: ABC News, they said they were going to air the 227 00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:11,160 Speaker 3: first nippet of today's interview at six point thirty on 228 00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:15,320 Speaker 3: World New News tonight with David Muir Hymn of Good Hair, 229 00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:18,600 Speaker 3: with the full interview that was going to air Sunday 230 00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:21,679 Speaker 3: morning on This Week with George steph Knopolis. So Wednesday 231 00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:23,880 Speaker 3: night you had ABC that saying, you know what, Actually, 232 00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:26,680 Speaker 3: we're gonna go ahead and do a primetime special Friday 233 00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:27,440 Speaker 3: night at eight. 234 00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:28,360 Speaker 1: So that's it. 235 00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:30,439 Speaker 3: They're going to do the whole thing eight o'clock tonight. 236 00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:34,920 Speaker 3: And maybe that's just the ratings play. Maybe they thought 237 00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:37,360 Speaker 3: there's more opportunity to go ahead and just let it 238 00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:42,000 Speaker 3: happen tonight, or maybe there is something more strategically interesting 239 00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:44,880 Speaker 3: and faulved with him. And on the one hand, who 240 00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:46,560 Speaker 3: would ever want to spend a Friday night on a 241 00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:51,440 Speaker 3: holiday weekend watching Joe Biden? On the other hand, what 242 00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:54,480 Speaker 3: is it that you could possibly do tonight that would 243 00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:59,640 Speaker 3: be more potentially entertaining? So yeah, should Joe stay or 244 00:13:59,679 --> 00:14:00,199 Speaker 3: should go? 245 00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:00,560 Speaker 1: Now? 246 00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:03,720 Speaker 3: So just as the Clash sang the song, you have 247 00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:07,320 Speaker 3: Stephanopolis that holds the script. So you can get your 248 00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:11,760 Speaker 3: popcorn ready and let the festivities roll tonight. I'm Brian 249 00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:22,880 Speaker 3: mudd In for clayon Buck. Okay, he there, it is 250 00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:25,480 Speaker 3: Brian mudd In for Clay and Buck host the e 251 00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:28,800 Speaker 3: Brian mud Show. I've done to my home station w 252 00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:32,360 Speaker 3: j and O in West Palm Beach and can check 253 00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:34,480 Speaker 3: out the Brian mud Show podcast where you get your 254 00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:38,200 Speaker 3: podcasts at Brian Mudd Radio socially, and one of the 255 00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:43,360 Speaker 3: things that I am looking for this election cycle isn't 256 00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:48,080 Speaker 3: just a win, It is generational political change. 257 00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:50,240 Speaker 1: Generational political change. 258 00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:54,360 Speaker 3: So one of the biggest questions as we enter the 259 00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:59,600 Speaker 3: final four months of this election cycle, can we see 260 00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:03,480 Speaker 3: a Stewart shift in the American electorate one of the 261 00:15:03,480 --> 00:15:10,680 Speaker 3: biggest complaints by conservatives for a long time. Now, yeah, 262 00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:16,600 Speaker 3: we occasionally win elections. By whatever happens, the net effect 263 00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:21,480 Speaker 3: is like only temporarily pausing the insanity, right, It just 264 00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:27,239 Speaker 3: it slows down the progressivism they marked the march to Marxism. 265 00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:29,960 Speaker 3: You know, for example, you think back, it was only 266 00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:34,160 Speaker 3: sixteen years ago that Barack Obama ran a campaign that 267 00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:37,920 Speaker 3: was opposed to same sex marriage. And look what we 268 00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:40,440 Speaker 3: have today today We have dudes who look like ladies 269 00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:45,120 Speaker 3: competing athletically as girls and tax payer funded child mutilations 270 00:15:45,160 --> 00:15:48,400 Speaker 3: taking place. I mean, that's inside of sixteen years. And 271 00:15:48,440 --> 00:15:51,200 Speaker 3: by the way, Obama was even on the record as 272 00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:55,080 Speaker 3: early as recently as twenty ten say yeah, I'm still 273 00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:57,800 Speaker 3: opposed to same sex marriage. And now take a look 274 00:15:57,800 --> 00:16:00,600 Speaker 3: at where we are. So the question is not can 275 00:16:00,640 --> 00:16:04,680 Speaker 3: we win an election this year? The question is, can 276 00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:09,040 Speaker 3: we change hearts and minds and ultimately end up changing 277 00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:11,280 Speaker 3: a whole generation of voters. 278 00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:13,400 Speaker 1: I think the answer is yes. 279 00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:15,880 Speaker 3: I think we have an opportunity that we haven't had 280 00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:19,240 Speaker 3: since Reagan, and I want to dive into that a 281 00:16:19,280 --> 00:16:19,760 Speaker 3: bit more. 282 00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:19,880 Speaker 2: So. 283 00:16:19,920 --> 00:16:23,120 Speaker 3: We're going to be teeing up the generational opportunity that 284 00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:24,360 Speaker 3: is in front of us. 285 00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:26,040 Speaker 1: And as part. 286 00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:28,000 Speaker 3: Of that conversation, we're going to be teeing it up 287 00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:31,080 Speaker 3: with Rightley Gaines. She's going to be joining us a 288 00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:34,240 Speaker 3: next somebody who knows a thing or two about winning 289 00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:36,520 Speaker 3: over hearts and minds and fighting the battles that need 290 00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:37,240 Speaker 3: to be fought. 291 00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:49,200 Speaker 1: Be right back, Fry mud In for playing buck there. 292 00:16:49,240 --> 00:16:51,480 Speaker 5: You people are a bunch of mind numb robots to 293 00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:55,480 Speaker 5: the drive by media. You are incapable of thinking on 294 00:16:55,520 --> 00:17:00,240 Speaker 5: your own. You are your public opinions are nothing but 295 00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:06,800 Speaker 5: the result of whoever it is influencing you, Me, Fox News, whoever. 296 00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:10,440 Speaker 5: You're incapable of independent thought, critical thought. What happened. 297 00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:12,320 Speaker 1: All this does. 298 00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:17,920 Speaker 5: Is show how these hacks fail to understand the bond 299 00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:24,080 Speaker 5: that exists between a candidate and his audience or voters. 300 00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:28,320 Speaker 5: Let me, let me give you one little hint, media, 301 00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:32,200 Speaker 5: Donald Trump cannot be hurt by something he does not say. 302 00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:36,080 Speaker 5: Donald Trump nor any other candidate cannot be hurt by 303 00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:39,760 Speaker 5: something he does not do. For you people in the 304 00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:42,399 Speaker 5: media and in the Republican establishment, to voote for you 305 00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:45,600 Speaker 5: people waiting for Trump to blow it, waiting for Trump to. 306 00:17:45,520 --> 00:17:47,320 Speaker 1: Step in it, whatever you think is going to happen. 307 00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:51,760 Speaker 5: It's typical and traditional from people who think their job 308 00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:54,399 Speaker 5: is to take people out. And that's what the media 309 00:17:54,440 --> 00:17:57,840 Speaker 5: thinks their job with us is is to take us out. 310 00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:00,359 Speaker 5: The only way Trump's going to be taken out as 311 00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:03,800 Speaker 5: if somebody comes along and is better. The media didn't 312 00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:07,000 Speaker 5: make Trump so little hint you immediate people, you can't 313 00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:07,800 Speaker 5: take him out. 314 00:18:09,280 --> 00:18:11,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, so timeless wards a wisdom from Rush. I was 315 00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:15,760 Speaker 3: thinking about that as we are watching today, what will 316 00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:20,880 Speaker 3: be with the George Stephanopolis interview where you literally have 317 00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:23,920 Speaker 3: Stephanopolos playing the role of like King George or Caesar, 318 00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:25,480 Speaker 3: where it's going to be a thumbs up or a 319 00:18:25,520 --> 00:18:28,280 Speaker 3: thumbs down, where if he wants to take out the 320 00:18:28,280 --> 00:18:32,560 Speaker 3: President of the United States today, he probably can if 321 00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:35,199 Speaker 3: in his interview with Biden he presses him, if he 322 00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:39,280 Speaker 3: asks him real questions. If there's not editing to protect 323 00:18:39,359 --> 00:18:44,480 Speaker 3: Biden and his responses, he very well might be able 324 00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:46,640 Speaker 3: to push him off the cliff today get him out 325 00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:49,800 Speaker 3: of this race. Interesting that ABC has bumped up that 326 00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:53,080 Speaker 3: interview to eight o'clock tonight prime time rather than rolling 327 00:18:53,119 --> 00:18:56,840 Speaker 3: it out on Sunday morning. So we'll see what Stephanopolis decides. 328 00:18:56,880 --> 00:18:59,439 Speaker 3: But you think about it, Rush talking about the bond 329 00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:04,639 Speaker 3: with Trump and his voters because it was organic media 330 00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:07,800 Speaker 3: had nothing to do with Donald Trump rising to political prominence. 331 00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:10,920 Speaker 3: It was all about him and the bond with us 332 00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:18,280 Speaker 3: after more than fifty years as a politician, and he's 333 00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:21,320 Speaker 3: currently the president of the United States. We're talking about 334 00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:27,119 Speaker 3: George stinking Stephanopolis maybe deciding Joe Biden's political future. Just 335 00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:29,800 Speaker 3: think about the diconomy there. It really is something remarkable. 336 00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:30,040 Speaker 1: Now. 337 00:19:30,840 --> 00:19:35,320 Speaker 3: Brian Mudd in for Claim Buck today and speaking of diconomy, now, 338 00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:38,520 Speaker 3: I mentioned just before the break one of the things 339 00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:41,160 Speaker 3: that has bugged a lot of us on the right 340 00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:45,760 Speaker 3: for a long time is that even when we win elections, 341 00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:49,200 Speaker 3: all it does is slowed down the insanity. It's like 342 00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:52,960 Speaker 3: hitting the pause button on the insanity. Now, I use 343 00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:56,560 Speaker 3: the example of you go back sixteen years ago, Obama 344 00:19:56,720 --> 00:20:00,080 Speaker 3: ran on being opposed as same sex marriage, and now 345 00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:03,000 Speaker 3: we have dudes who look like ladies competing athletically as girls, 346 00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:04,840 Speaker 3: and tax payer funded child mutilations. 347 00:20:04,880 --> 00:20:05,520 Speaker 1: I mean, it's just. 348 00:20:07,040 --> 00:20:10,800 Speaker 3: It's insane as soon as the progressives have an opportunity. 349 00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:14,440 Speaker 3: But this time there's something different. We have the opportunity 350 00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:18,760 Speaker 3: for political change this time around, and the first place 351 00:20:18,760 --> 00:20:22,800 Speaker 3: that starts is in opening up the eyes of people 352 00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:26,320 Speaker 3: who previously were not necessarily as receptive to information. There's 353 00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:30,040 Speaker 3: always been this truism in American politics. You tend to 354 00:20:30,080 --> 00:20:33,320 Speaker 3: be as left as you're going to be when you're young, 355 00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:35,480 Speaker 3: and you tend to get a little bit more conservative 356 00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:39,640 Speaker 3: as you actually get a job and you go out 357 00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:42,239 Speaker 3: on your own and you realize, oh, shoot, that's how 358 00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:45,200 Speaker 3: much stuff costs, and oh I have to pay taxes, 359 00:20:45,240 --> 00:20:47,199 Speaker 3: and that's how much they're I mean, that tends to 360 00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:51,119 Speaker 3: make people more conservative, and in addition to traditional family formation. 361 00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:56,120 Speaker 3: That's why it's so interesting that we continue to see 362 00:20:56,680 --> 00:20:59,359 Speaker 3: that the youngest voters are those that are the most 363 00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:03,639 Speaker 3: unhappy with Joe Biden. The youngest voters are those that 364 00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:07,880 Speaker 3: are the least likely to want to vote for him, 365 00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:11,120 Speaker 3: for him of any generation right now, that is an opportunity, 366 00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:14,840 Speaker 3: and we've seen consistently and pulling that it's basically a 367 00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:17,840 Speaker 3: horse race with voters eighteen to thirty four between Trump 368 00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:20,680 Speaker 3: and Biden. It's in some cases we'll see poles, we're 369 00:21:20,760 --> 00:21:24,680 Speaker 3: under thirty Trump leads. I've never in political analysis seen 370 00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:27,919 Speaker 3: something like this. Somebody wanted to bring in. Who understands 371 00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:29,720 Speaker 3: and is on kind of like the cutting edge of 372 00:21:29,760 --> 00:21:34,240 Speaker 3: all of this is Riley Gaines Barker, who of course 373 00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:37,960 Speaker 3: is the host of Outkicks Gains for Girls podcasts, also 374 00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:41,560 Speaker 3: the author of Swimming Against the Current, Fighting for common 375 00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:45,320 Speaker 3: Sense in a world that's lost its mind? Isn't that 376 00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:48,520 Speaker 3: the truth? Riley, thank you for taking the time with us. 377 00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:52,520 Speaker 4: Well, Brian, thank you so much for having me on you. 378 00:21:52,480 --> 00:21:54,920 Speaker 3: Bet so, tell me a little bit about what you're 379 00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:57,600 Speaker 3: seeing right now. You're in the middle of all of 380 00:21:57,640 --> 00:22:01,160 Speaker 3: the insanity regularly because you've been trying to fight these battles. 381 00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:03,960 Speaker 3: Are you seeing progress being made as we're four months 382 00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:04,879 Speaker 3: out before the election. 383 00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:10,080 Speaker 4: Definitely, I think there's lots of progress being made, lots 384 00:22:10,119 --> 00:22:12,679 Speaker 4: of impact being had. There's no doubt about that. To 385 00:22:12,760 --> 00:22:16,080 Speaker 4: address your point, you know, specifically about younger voters here 386 00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:21,320 Speaker 4: being a recent college graduate myself speaking on I think 387 00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:24,359 Speaker 4: last semester, I spoke on twenty five different college campuses, 388 00:22:24,480 --> 00:22:29,120 Speaker 4: campuses ranging from smaller private Christian schools like Truet, McConnell 389 00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:32,720 Speaker 4: or College of the Ozarks, and of course everything in 390 00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:37,399 Speaker 4: between until like cal Berkeley, Princeton, Harvard and what we 391 00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:39,880 Speaker 4: are seeing on college campuses and really what the nation, 392 00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:42,879 Speaker 4: what the world got to see after what happened in 393 00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:45,800 Speaker 4: the Middle East after October seventh, we have seen what 394 00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:50,320 Speaker 4: these institutions have created. To your point, I mean, I 395 00:22:50,359 --> 00:22:52,040 Speaker 4: think you hit the nail on the head and saying 396 00:22:52,080 --> 00:22:58,360 Speaker 4: that younger voters, especially younger women females, we are our 397 00:22:58,400 --> 00:23:02,639 Speaker 4: own worst enemy. But I will say to that point, 398 00:23:02,680 --> 00:23:05,560 Speaker 4: I think there's a lot more people like me than 399 00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:08,920 Speaker 4: the media. Let's on people who are sane. I mean, 400 00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:12,000 Speaker 4: that's really what it boils down to. It's a kind 401 00:23:12,040 --> 00:23:14,240 Speaker 4: of this battle of crazy versus normal. There are a 402 00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:18,720 Speaker 4: lot more normal, level headed, reasonable people out there than 403 00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:21,800 Speaker 4: what we think. But in terms of impact as a whole, 404 00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:25,160 Speaker 4: what we're seeing across this nation, Look, twenty six states 405 00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:28,200 Speaker 4: are now suing the Biden administration for their illegal administrative 406 00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:29,840 Speaker 4: rerighte of Title nine. I don't think we would have 407 00:23:29,840 --> 00:23:31,920 Speaker 4: seen that two years ago. Now we've seen over ten 408 00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:35,760 Speaker 4: states have some sort of preliminary injunction introduced so they 409 00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:38,520 Speaker 4: do not have to comply to this rewrite this new 410 00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:43,040 Speaker 4: proposal when it takes effect on August first, twenty four 411 00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:45,720 Speaker 4: states have some sort of fairness in women's sports bill. Again, 412 00:23:45,800 --> 00:23:47,320 Speaker 4: I don't think WEEO would have seen that two years ago. 413 00:23:47,400 --> 00:23:49,919 Speaker 4: Even the way people are talking about these issues, I 414 00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:53,280 Speaker 4: think we've reached a point where people are willing to say, look, 415 00:23:53,320 --> 00:23:56,959 Speaker 4: that's a man, like that's a naked man at that 416 00:23:57,080 --> 00:23:59,560 Speaker 4: The parable of the Emperor wears no clothes could not 417 00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:01,679 Speaker 4: be more true than it is at this blip in 418 00:24:01,760 --> 00:24:03,480 Speaker 4: time in America. 419 00:24:04,560 --> 00:24:08,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean some things are complicated issues man versus woman, 420 00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:14,440 Speaker 3: the biological differences there not really not really all that complicated, 421 00:24:14,480 --> 00:24:16,720 Speaker 3: which just speaks to the level of insanity in so 422 00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:20,480 Speaker 3: many respects encouraging what you're saying. And you know, Riley, 423 00:24:20,520 --> 00:24:22,399 Speaker 3: one of the things that I've been thinking about, you know, 424 00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:24,760 Speaker 3: all joke that like Michael J. 425 00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:28,280 Speaker 1: Fox was acting, but I really was. Alex P. 426 00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:31,840 Speaker 3: Keaton, you know, as a gen xer, as a child 427 00:24:31,840 --> 00:24:36,480 Speaker 3: of the eighties, being in that era, having Ronald Reagan 428 00:24:36,520 --> 00:24:38,360 Speaker 3: as president, how good things were. 429 00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:43,120 Speaker 1: It's shaped an entire generation. But on the right, there really. 430 00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:48,879 Speaker 3: Hasn't been anything that has come along to create that 431 00:24:49,040 --> 00:24:52,400 Speaker 3: yet again, the kind of generational change that is needed 432 00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:55,879 Speaker 3: to maybe you know, turn around what we're talking about here. 433 00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:59,000 Speaker 3: And I actually believe that had it not been for COVID, 434 00:24:59,640 --> 00:25:04,000 Speaker 3: Trump wins reelection and we probably would have had that opportunity, 435 00:25:04,040 --> 00:25:06,399 Speaker 3: we might be there right now already. But I definitely 436 00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:09,800 Speaker 3: think the opportunity exists because, among other things, are the 437 00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:14,720 Speaker 3: policies of the Biden administration, the policies of the progressive left. 438 00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:18,240 Speaker 3: They tend to hurt the youngest voters, the youngest people 439 00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:21,520 Speaker 3: the most. And as you're talking about, you know, whether 440 00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:25,720 Speaker 3: it's athletically or otherwise, are you starting to see that 441 00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:28,800 Speaker 3: understood as you have younger adults in or the real 442 00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:31,200 Speaker 3: world and go, hold on, you know, I'm really being 443 00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:31,760 Speaker 3: screwed here. 444 00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:35,880 Speaker 4: I think so. And again, it's not necessarily a result 445 00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:40,480 Speaker 4: of Unfortunately, it's not necessarily a result of prosperous things 446 00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:42,720 Speaker 4: that are happening in this nation. Unfortunately, it is the 447 00:25:42,800 --> 00:25:47,400 Speaker 4: result of disastrous things happening to this nation. I think 448 00:25:47,440 --> 00:25:52,400 Speaker 4: people understand more clearly now from a global perspective what's 449 00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:55,200 Speaker 4: been going on with this world. We have a president 450 00:25:55,600 --> 00:25:58,240 Speaker 4: in the White House right now who is not America first, 451 00:25:58,280 --> 00:26:00,919 Speaker 4: he's an America last, he's a globalist. Actually at that he 452 00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:04,680 Speaker 4: wants open borders, not secure borders. We have a president 453 00:26:04,720 --> 00:26:07,920 Speaker 4: in the White House who cannot, actually I think he can, 454 00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:13,640 Speaker 4: who refuses to acknowledge that differences even exist between men 455 00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:15,960 Speaker 4: and women. Actually, what he has done is say that 456 00:26:16,080 --> 00:26:21,360 Speaker 4: we're the same man, woman, female, male, mother, father, boy, girl, sex, gender, identity, 457 00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:26,240 Speaker 4: it's all interchangeable. Actually, it's synonymous. And when you are 458 00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:30,320 Speaker 4: willing to go that far, people see it. People understand. 459 00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:34,960 Speaker 4: They understand that Joe Biden's credibility has been compromised entirely 460 00:26:35,080 --> 00:26:37,480 Speaker 4: on every topic. If you cannot say men and women 461 00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:40,320 Speaker 4: are different, how in the world do you expect us, 462 00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:43,920 Speaker 4: regardless of age, regardless of any identity factor, regardless of 463 00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:46,359 Speaker 4: if you're white, you're black, you're old, you're young, forget it. 464 00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:50,560 Speaker 4: How do you expect us as American people to believe 465 00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:53,199 Speaker 4: a single word that comes out of your mouth on 466 00:26:53,240 --> 00:26:53,840 Speaker 4: any topic. 467 00:26:55,200 --> 00:26:59,440 Speaker 3: That's a really good point. And when you talk about credibility, 468 00:26:59,520 --> 00:27:01,440 Speaker 3: I do think that's a big part of it. And 469 00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:05,520 Speaker 3: with a lot of younger adults too, to where authenticity matters. 470 00:27:06,320 --> 00:27:09,040 Speaker 3: How do you see that plane Because obviously you know 471 00:27:09,119 --> 00:27:15,159 Speaker 3: the Biden administration, I thinks authenticity in so many different respects. 472 00:27:16,119 --> 00:27:19,719 Speaker 3: But in terms of policies seeing through that, are they 473 00:27:19,760 --> 00:27:23,720 Speaker 3: now taking a look at Trump and in maybe realizing 474 00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:24,560 Speaker 3: what they've been missing? 475 00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:29,240 Speaker 4: I think so. Regardless of how you feel about Trump 476 00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:32,439 Speaker 4: or his policies, this is a person who has character. 477 00:27:32,680 --> 00:27:35,040 Speaker 4: This is a person who is relatable in the way 478 00:27:35,119 --> 00:27:38,280 Speaker 4: that look, he's not a politician, and I think that's 479 00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:41,480 Speaker 4: I think that's what the American people want for so long. 480 00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:45,000 Speaker 4: And look, I'm in DC right now. I've spent a 481 00:27:45,040 --> 00:27:48,280 Speaker 4: pretty ample amount of time in the nation's capital over 482 00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:51,840 Speaker 4: these past two years. It truly is the swamp. I've 483 00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:55,639 Speaker 4: seen the corruption firsthand. I've seen the deceit and the 484 00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:58,760 Speaker 4: lies and the manipulation certainly on both sides. But what 485 00:27:58,880 --> 00:28:01,600 Speaker 4: Trump is is just about as real as it gets. 486 00:28:01,680 --> 00:28:04,320 Speaker 4: There's no sugarcoating. You never have to wonder what he's 487 00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:06,720 Speaker 4: thinking because guess what he will tell you, And it's 488 00:28:06,760 --> 00:28:08,000 Speaker 4: kind of him in trouble in the past. 489 00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:08,239 Speaker 3: Right. 490 00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:11,359 Speaker 4: People talk about the mean tweets, Well, guess what is 491 00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:15,080 Speaker 4: so much worse than mean tweets. It is what we 492 00:28:15,119 --> 00:28:16,880 Speaker 4: are seeing happening to this nation. It's what we saw 493 00:28:16,880 --> 00:28:20,720 Speaker 4: in Philadelphia last night, the burning of American flags. It's 494 00:28:20,760 --> 00:28:25,320 Speaker 4: pornography in schools that is so much worse than the 495 00:28:25,400 --> 00:28:27,800 Speaker 4: mean tweets. It's the inflation that we're seeing. And so look, 496 00:28:28,160 --> 00:28:32,680 Speaker 4: I think people they're understanding what we had at one 497 00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:35,400 Speaker 4: point and how we took that for granted as a nation. 498 00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:37,760 Speaker 4: And I think if you look back, even at twenty 499 00:28:37,840 --> 00:28:42,000 Speaker 4: twenty two, we expected this big red wave right across 500 00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:44,440 Speaker 4: the nation and in all of these different elections, local elections, 501 00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:47,560 Speaker 4: state elections, and it just didn't happen. I think it's 502 00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:52,160 Speaker 4: because we became as conservatives, we became complacent. We thought 503 00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:55,680 Speaker 4: to ourselves we expected it, so therefore it was bound 504 00:28:55,680 --> 00:28:57,240 Speaker 4: to happen. But that's not what we saw. So I 505 00:28:57,240 --> 00:29:00,000 Speaker 4: think people now more than ever, are more amped up. 506 00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:08,640 Speaker 4: They're ready to create this new and exciting and much 507 00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:12,000 Speaker 4: needed urgent at that leadership in this country that can 508 00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:13,560 Speaker 4: put America back on track. 509 00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:16,720 Speaker 1: Riley, You're on the front lines, You're out there leading. 510 00:29:16,840 --> 00:29:19,280 Speaker 3: What is it that people can do with four months 511 00:29:19,320 --> 00:29:23,120 Speaker 3: to go before the election to make positive change happen. 512 00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:28,280 Speaker 4: Every single one of us should dedicate ourselves to working 513 00:29:28,600 --> 00:29:31,560 Speaker 4: the hardest we have ever worked in our entire lives 514 00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:35,040 Speaker 4: at anything over these next four months. You hear it 515 00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:38,040 Speaker 4: all the time, it's said every election, right, this is 516 00:29:38,200 --> 00:29:42,040 Speaker 4: the election. It matters more than any other election in 517 00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:46,560 Speaker 4: our nation's history. But as a young person, myself being 518 00:29:46,600 --> 00:29:51,160 Speaker 4: only twenty just recently turned twenty four years old, what 519 00:29:51,240 --> 00:29:53,240 Speaker 4: I have seen in my life is this is the 520 00:29:53,280 --> 00:29:57,160 Speaker 4: most important election because again, like I said, this isn't 521 00:29:57,160 --> 00:30:02,080 Speaker 4: a battle of right versus wrong, Blue versus Red. It 522 00:30:02,160 --> 00:30:05,840 Speaker 4: really is moral versus evil. That is what we are 523 00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:09,040 Speaker 4: up against is evil. We're witnessing in real time the 524 00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:13,400 Speaker 4: planned and controlled destruction of America. And so what we 525 00:30:13,440 --> 00:30:17,400 Speaker 4: can do, first of all, of course, vote register other 526 00:30:17,480 --> 00:30:21,400 Speaker 4: people to vote, especially Christians. I think we've seen over 527 00:30:22,320 --> 00:30:27,960 Speaker 4: historically a very low portion of Christian voters actually get 528 00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:31,000 Speaker 4: out and vote. We need those votes. We need people 529 00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:35,560 Speaker 4: who are with a moral background, a sound understanding of 530 00:30:35,600 --> 00:30:37,680 Speaker 4: what's wrong with our nation getting out and voting. We 531 00:30:37,720 --> 00:30:41,160 Speaker 4: are not hopeless. We do have the power as the people, 532 00:30:42,040 --> 00:30:43,720 Speaker 4: and so I think that's all things that we can 533 00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:47,280 Speaker 4: do to again put someone back in the White House 534 00:30:47,320 --> 00:30:50,200 Speaker 4: who is America first. He definitely has a lot of 535 00:30:50,280 --> 00:30:54,040 Speaker 4: damage control to do once he gets back in in November, 536 00:30:55,080 --> 00:31:00,400 Speaker 4: but it is necessary for the prospering of our of 537 00:31:00,440 --> 00:31:01,080 Speaker 4: our great nation. 538 00:31:02,080 --> 00:31:04,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, well done, well said. Appreciate what you do out 539 00:31:04,680 --> 00:31:07,120 Speaker 3: there each and every day. And again her book Swimming 540 00:31:07,360 --> 00:31:11,360 Speaker 3: against the Current, Riley Gains. Thank you so much, Brian 541 00:31:11,400 --> 00:31:23,720 Speaker 3: Mudd in for Clay and Buck. So this isn't just 542 00:31:23,800 --> 00:31:29,240 Speaker 3: about winning an election. This is about generational change, I believe, 543 00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:32,680 Speaker 3: and I do think this cycle can be different. I 544 00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:35,320 Speaker 3: do think it's the first time since the eighties, the 545 00:31:35,360 --> 00:31:38,960 Speaker 3: first time since Reagan, that we have somebody who will 546 00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:40,959 Speaker 3: do what needs to be done to be that movement 547 00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:43,520 Speaker 3: kind of president. I do think that you also have 548 00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:46,960 Speaker 3: young voters that had their eyes that are open in 549 00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:51,080 Speaker 3: a way that is necessary to exact that kind of 550 00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:55,680 Speaker 3: effectual change. And yes, the President of the United States 551 00:31:55,720 --> 00:31:58,760 Speaker 3: appears have dementia and that is something different too. And yes, 552 00:31:58,920 --> 00:32:03,160 Speaker 3: the former and perhaps future president of the United States 553 00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:07,200 Speaker 3: has been criminally convicted for now likely to be overturned 554 00:32:07,200 --> 00:32:11,200 Speaker 3: on appeal, and that's also different. But one of the 555 00:32:11,200 --> 00:32:14,800 Speaker 3: things that we are seeing as this election comes together 556 00:32:15,120 --> 00:32:20,320 Speaker 3: is the type of opportunity that very rarely exist in 557 00:32:20,400 --> 00:32:24,560 Speaker 3: American politics, and it's really important that we run through it. 558 00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:26,960 Speaker 3: It's important that on the right we don't get over 559 00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:30,080 Speaker 3: confident and that we do everything we can every day 560 00:32:30,080 --> 00:32:32,840 Speaker 3: to make sure this happens. But then it's also important 561 00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:34,440 Speaker 3: that we follow through, and by the way, that means 562 00:32:34,480 --> 00:32:37,480 Speaker 3: down ballot, because one of the things that Trump really 563 00:32:37,560 --> 00:32:41,680 Speaker 3: lacked when he first took office leadership that was worthwhile 564 00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:45,240 Speaker 3: on the front end. And imagine if he had great 565 00:32:45,320 --> 00:32:48,560 Speaker 3: leadership in the House rather than Paul Ryan. Imagine if 566 00:32:48,600 --> 00:32:51,080 Speaker 3: he had terrific leadership in the Senate instead of Mitch 567 00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:54,160 Speaker 3: McConnell and they were ready to lead on policy, on 568 00:32:54,200 --> 00:32:56,800 Speaker 3: Trump's policy, how much different things would have been. Imagine 569 00:32:56,840 --> 00:32:59,320 Speaker 3: if we didn't have COVID right, we have that opportunity 570 00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:01,720 Speaker 3: this time around, if he has great leadership in the Senate, 571 00:33:01,760 --> 00:33:05,200 Speaker 3: great leadership in the House, with his ideas and the 572 00:33:05,240 --> 00:33:09,920 Speaker 3: turnaround that this country can see that is a generational 573 00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:13,320 Speaker 3: change that's kind of movement that is rare, and that's 574 00:33:13,360 --> 00:33:17,000 Speaker 3: what's been missing. Gen xers are actually the most conservative 575 00:33:17,040 --> 00:33:20,480 Speaker 3: generation of voters next to the Island generation, but didn't 576 00:33:20,480 --> 00:33:24,120 Speaker 3: happen by accident, and people could end up talking about 577 00:33:24,480 --> 00:33:28,920 Speaker 3: Trump the way that a generation of voters did with Reagan. 578 00:33:29,320 --> 00:33:31,960 Speaker 3: That's what we're going for this year. I'm Brian mudd 579 00:33:32,120 --> 00:33:33,360 Speaker 3: in for Clay and Buck.
