Speaker 1: You're listening to Comedy Central, from the.
Speaker 2: Most trusted journalists at Comedy Central.
Speaker 1: It's America's only sorts for news. This is The Daily
Speaker 1: Show with your host.
Speaker 3: Ronny nag.
Speaker 1: Hey.
Speaker 4: Welcome to The Daily Show. I'm Roy Shang. We got
Speaker 4: so much to talk about tonight. Everyone's voted, but you
Speaker 4: Puerto Rico might decide the election and Trump doesn't know
Speaker 4: why you people keep calling him the N word. Plus,
Speaker 4: we sent Triumph, the insult comedy Dog the Magot Square Garden.
Speaker 4: So let's get right into the final week of indecision
Speaker 4: twenty twenty four. We are now just one week from
Speaker 4: election day, but the election is actually well underway. Over
Speaker 4: fifty million people have already voted early these days. Election
Speaker 4: day is like a white woman's birthday. You got celebrated
Speaker 4: for a whole month. There's still a ton of people
Speaker 4: who haven't voted yet. And for those people, one late
Speaker 4: breaking controversy you could actually end up making a difference.
Speaker 4: Days of backlash after a comedian's racist joke about Puerto
Speaker 4: Rico at a Trump rally.
Speaker 5: They are seeing this backlash breakthrough in a way that
Speaker 5: they have not seen yet this cycle.
Speaker 6: Puerto Rico fall out, spreading like wildfire in Pennsylvania. Superstars
Speaker 6: like Bad Bunny, Jay Lo and Ricky Martin took to
Speaker 6: social media and there are hundreds of millions of followers
Speaker 6: blasting out support for Vice President Harris. Jean Marie Lugo
Speaker 6: says the joke sealed her vote for Harris.
Speaker 4: I finally said, no, I have to be in their
Speaker 4: vi SI on the history.
Speaker 6: She has lived in Philadelphia for twenty years and was
Speaker 6: leaning towards Trump until the comments.
Speaker 4: Wow, this woman was leaning towards Trauma and now she's
Speaker 4: voting Kamala because of that one joke. I mean, she
Speaker 4: was like, I don't mind racism, but I draw the
Speaker 4: line at racism. This one offensive joke about puor Rico
Speaker 4: being a garbage island seems to have really broken through
Speaker 4: in a way that almost nothing else has. I mean,
Speaker 4: after all the speeches and the interviews and the press
Speaker 4: and the energy spend and ads and billions and billions
Speaker 4: of dollars being thrown around, people just ignored almost everything,
Speaker 4: but this joke somehow broke through the noise. And as
Speaker 4: a master political satirist myself, I'm extremely jealous, because all
Speaker 4: we do here is jokes all the time and it
Speaker 4: changes nothing. What was the difference maker here? What the target? Okay,
Speaker 4: well tell me where's country? Is? A shit on? I'll
Speaker 4: do it all right. Hey Australia, you're the garbage island?
Speaker 4: Anything anyone? Any did that move the needle? How is
Speaker 4: all engagement? This joke looks like I could have a
Speaker 4: lasting effect on the race. And I get why Porto
Speaker 4: Ricans are upset, but it's still crazy to me that
Speaker 4: a joke from Trump's warm up guy seems to be
Speaker 4: having more of an impact than Trump's actual terrible record
Speaker 4: on Puerto Rico. I mean, his administration blocked Puerto Rico
Speaker 4: from receiving hurricane relief. Then Trump went down there and
Speaker 4: tossed paper towels into the crowd, I guess, to help
Speaker 4: them soak up the hurricane. And to top it all off,
Speaker 4: Trump tried to trade Puerto Rico for Greenland. I mean
Speaker 4: he would rather That's not a good thing. Don't applaud
Speaker 4: that he would rather have a frozen wasteland than a
Speaker 4: tropical paradise full of brown people of good music. I mean,
Speaker 4: what a stupid idea. No one in Greenland can play shortstop, Okay,
Speaker 4: so will this affect the race. Well see what happens.
Speaker 4: But in the meantime, the joke from that MSG rally
Speaker 4: that really got my attention was actually this one.
Speaker 7: You know what, Kamala Harris, she's just she got eighty
Speaker 7: five million votes because she's just so impressive as the
Speaker 7: first samoan Malaysian low Iq former California prosecutor ever to
Speaker 7: be elected president.
Speaker 4: Big mistake, buddy. All right, I'm Malaysian and the rock
Speaker 4: is some moowen. So now that's right. Now, now you're
Speaker 4: insulting two of the biggest movie stars on the planet.
Speaker 8: Get ready for the backlash, baby.
Speaker 4: But MSG rally came out a bad time for Trump
Speaker 4: because last week his former chief of staff John Kelly
Speaker 4: said that Trump praised Hitler's generals. Yeah, cool, thanks for
Speaker 4: finally going to record five years later, General John Kelly,
Speaker 4: anything else you want to warn us about, like maybe
Speaker 4: a suspicious bag on the subway in two thousand and four.
Speaker 4: But now people are comparing the rhetoric at the MSG
Speaker 4: rally to another MSG rally in nineteen thirty nine that
Speaker 4: involved you guessed it, Nazis, which is the worst thing
Speaker 4: to happen at the god In other than twenty years
Speaker 4: of the Knicks. This all has placed Trump on the defensive.
Speaker 9: The newest line from Kamala and her campaign is that
Speaker 9: everyone who isn't voting for her is a Nazi, a Nazis.
Speaker 1: He's Hitler. And then they say he's a Nazi.
Speaker 4: I've not a Nazi.
Speaker 1: I'm the opposite of a Nazi. I don't know.
Speaker 4: I mean, yeah, of course Trump is not a Nazi. Okay,
Speaker 4: they all famously served in the military. But what exactly,
Speaker 4: but what like, what exactly is the opposite of a Nazi?
Speaker 4: I mean, is it the guy who started Jay date
Speaker 4: because you're trying to make more Jews? Or is it
Speaker 4: like a guy who has like the reverse mustache like
Speaker 4: everything else but not that high but still, I mean,
Speaker 4: the question remains, is Donald Trump a Nazi? Well? According
Speaker 4: to JD. Vance, the only way to settle this debate
Speaker 4: is to talk to the people who actually fought the
Speaker 4: Nazis while they were in the middle of fighting the Nazis.
Speaker 5: Now, when these guys were fighting the actual Nazis back
Speaker 5: in nineteen forty four, I wonder what they would think
Speaker 5: about the Kamala Harris campaign. I'd like Kamala Harris to
Speaker 5: go back in time and hop on that boat and
Speaker 5: say that she wants taxpayer funded sex reassignment surgeries for
Speaker 5: illegal aliens. And I'd like to hear the response of
Speaker 5: those brave men.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I feel like they might have other things they
Speaker 4: want to talk about first, like I know what you're
Speaker 4: from the future. Hey, can you tell me the enemy's
Speaker 4: exact position? And if any of these bullets are gonna
Speaker 4: hit me right now? Also, bitcoin, is that a thing
Speaker 4: or not? And by the way, this is an interesting
Speaker 4: debate because Kamala has actually never called Trump Hitler. Jd
Speaker 4: Vance did though, And if he's and I mean, if
Speaker 4: jd Vance has got a time machine, maybe he should
Speaker 4: go back in time and tell himself to shut the
Speaker 4: f up. Oh who knows. I mean, maybe he got
Speaker 4: it right the first time. But jd Vance wasn't the
Speaker 4: only one talking about time travel. RFK Junior the Legend
Speaker 4: also chimed in with the weirdest reason for not comparing
Speaker 4: Trump to Hitler.
Speaker 10: So many of us when we were kids in this country,
Speaker 10: we're we're asked answer to consider the moral quandary, would you,
Speaker 10: if you could go back in time, would you kill
Speaker 10: baby Hitler? Before he could do all the damage and
Speaker 10: most of his answer, yeah, we would do that. So
Speaker 10: when you compare an American political figure to Hitler who
Speaker 10: was about to become president, you know the kind of
Speaker 10: people who are you know, who are already a little unstable,
Speaker 10: You're you're really suggesting to them that this man should
Speaker 10: be killed before he gets into office.
Speaker 4: Man, you thought my accent was bad? But wait, and
Speaker 4: what do you when you say what you shouldn't call
Speaker 4: Trump Hitler because someone will go back in time and
Speaker 4: kill baby Trump. Plan I don't know, even by RFK
Speaker 4: junior standards, that makes no sense. I mean, it sounds
Speaker 4: like his brainworm got a brainworm, and most people would
Speaker 4: kill baby Hitler, but only RFK Junior would then drop
Speaker 4: the baby Hitler in central pocket make it look like
Speaker 4: a bike accident. So uh. For more on rfk's comments
Speaker 4: about why we can't call Trump a Nazi, let's go
Speaker 4: live to Grace Cooling Smith Greg right, right?
Speaker 1: Great? Uh?
Speaker 4: Wait wait wait wait, wait where are you right now? Not?
Speaker 11: Where am I Ronnie? But when am I?
Speaker 3: The answer?
Speaker 8: Nineteen forty six?
Speaker 3: In baby Donald Trump's nursery.
Speaker 11: It's okay, little lady bitty Booba, Mama's here, Grace.
Speaker 4: What the how did you go back in time? I know?
Speaker 1: Right?
Speaker 4: Okay, Well, what what are you doing with Baby Trump?
Speaker 1: Well?
Speaker 11: I heard what RFK said, and it gave me a
Speaker 11: great idea.
Speaker 3: Not the first time RFK has done that.
Speaker 4: Oh, oh my god, Grace, you're not going to do
Speaker 4: I think you're gonna do? Are you what? Oh?
Speaker 1: No, no, oh my god.
Speaker 11: I would never hurt a baby. I have dropped him
Speaker 11: several times by accident. But no, I'm here to kidnap
Speaker 11: baby Trump and protect him from all the unstable people
Speaker 11: who might come back in time to hurt him.
Speaker 8: Baby Hungy wanna suck?
Speaker 1: He said.
Speaker 4: Get. I don't think you can just spontaneously breastfeed a baby.
Speaker 4: That's not yours, Grace.
Speaker 11: It's my body, Ronnie, it's my choice.
Speaker 4: Okay, okay, Well, look now that you've saved baby Trump,
Speaker 4: what now? What what's your plan?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 11: So I've decided I'm going to raise him on my own.
Speaker 11: I'll teach him right from wrong, show him how to
Speaker 11: respect women, and find a non violent hobby like baby modeling.
Speaker 11: If I can do all this, maybe he'll become the
Speaker 11: leader or country deserves.
Speaker 12: And lead he shall Grace and lead he shall.
Speaker 4: Wait wait, who's that? Oh Charlie? What everybody? What? What?
Speaker 4: Where are you reporting from?
Speaker 3: Not?
Speaker 1: Where am I?
Speaker 4: Ronnie?
Speaker 8: But when am I up?
Speaker 4: And tell me where you are?
Speaker 12: Okay, I'm from the alternate timeline where Grace successfully raises
Speaker 12: baby Trump.
Speaker 4: Oh god, another multivus marvel. Thank you for everything you do.
Speaker 12: Yes, and thank you Grace for changing the world.
Speaker 1: You're a hero here.
Speaker 8: Everyone here knows your name. Grace cool and Trudi.
Speaker 4: Okay, Wow, that's great. So Troy is the timeline? Good?
Speaker 12: It's great. Everyone is so kind. There's no global warming.
Speaker 12: We all have flying cars that you can have sex with.
Speaker 12: And last night, good Trump held a rally at Madison
Speaker 12: Square Garden and his opening joke was, you know what
Speaker 12: the worst thing about Puerto Rico is I don't get
Speaker 12: to spend enough time there.
Speaker 4: Oh wow, Grace, I guess you did it. I mean,
Speaker 4: you must be so proud.
Speaker 12: We are forever in your debt.
Speaker 8: Grace, you saved the world.
Speaker 3: Thank you, Troy. Quick question though, what is happening with
Speaker 3: your hair?
Speaker 1: Oh?
Speaker 12: I know?
Speaker 1: Hot?
Speaker 4: Right?
Speaker 8: So all is right in the world.
Speaker 12: President Trump is sweet as pie and we all have
Speaker 12: this really chic haircut.
Speaker 3: Everyone has that haircut.
Speaker 8: Literally everyone.
Speaker 12: It's it's the only haircut in this timeline.
Speaker 3: It looks dumb as ship.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I can't do this.
Speaker 11: If my actions are what caused that haircut, then I'm out.
Speaker 1: Grace.
Speaker 8: Wait, Grace, Grace, why why did you do that? That
Speaker 8: was a lot of choice to say.
Speaker 11: The world not worth a haircut, Ronnie, I'm coming back
Speaker 11: to the future.
Speaker 8: That's why it's called the right skirt.
Speaker 4: Grace Cooling's made. I'm tell you what, everybody.
Speaker 8: Hey, when we come back, ty go some AS's leg God.
Speaker 13: And you don't want to miss it. Hey, welcome back
Speaker 13: to that Daly show.
Speaker 4: Oh, everyone's talking about Trump's rally at Madison Square gotten,
Speaker 4: But what did the people who actually went there think
Speaker 4: to find out? We sent ovo special correspondent Triumph, the
Speaker 4: insult comic dog.
Speaker 2: We're here outside Madison Square Garden witnessing a caravan of
Speaker 2: migrants invading Manhattan. I didn't think it was possible to
Speaker 2: have more white people here than a Rangers game. The
Speaker 2: last time Donald Trump had this many New Yorkers in
Speaker 2: the palm of his hand, he was doing it to
Speaker 2: impress Jeffrey Epstein.
Speaker 1: Right to the right. Folks, Come on, okay, whoop.
Speaker 2: Sorry, wait wait wait, let me just stand right here.
Speaker 1: Okay, you're good, you're good.
Speaker 2: Okay, you're rest tight, you're west Look at you, my
Speaker 2: good Look at this get up.
Speaker 1: Holy crap, I almost wore that, you know. Thankfully my
Speaker 1: meds kicked in here. See it's upset. Where are you
Speaker 1: two from?
Speaker 2: And oh out of towners? So tell me since you
Speaker 2: arrived in New York City? How many times have you
Speaker 2: been murdered? So you're a big Trump fan?
Speaker 14: I tell you what.
Speaker 1: At least Trump's the legitimate nominee. Kamala you know.
Speaker 2: It was like a coup, right They handed her the nomination,
Speaker 2: right which she still has to get past Trump, which
Speaker 2: for a woman is very hard to do without pepper spray.
Speaker 2: Everyone outside is like, oh, it's a Nazi rally right now.
Speaker 1: This is nothing like a Nazi rally. The Nazis were
Speaker 1: in shape.
Speaker 2: First of all, they took care of themselves, unlike the
Speaker 2: guy over here.
Speaker 15: Right.
Speaker 2: Seriously, when I look at you, makes me think the
Speaker 2: groceries aren't expensive enough.
Speaker 1: Hi kid, hi kid, It's not a Nazi rally. I
Speaker 1: hate when people use that term.
Speaker 2: When they call Trump a Nazi, he's the candidate preferred
Speaker 2: by Nazis.
Speaker 1: Here's another issue that drives me crazy. Inflation? Am I right?
Speaker 1: It's crazy right now?
Speaker 3: Right now?
Speaker 2: Can you believe it's costing Elon Musk one dollars per
Speaker 2: voter to steal the election?
Speaker 1: But it's a disgrace.
Speaker 2: The Democrats are running on abortion a lot, right, that's
Speaker 2: a big issue in this election. What would you say
Speaker 2: to people worried about losing that?
Speaker 7: Right?
Speaker 1: Aside from what is it like to have sex?
Speaker 8: I'm not believe that I should be plowing across hard border.
Speaker 1: Foreigners are destroying American jobs. Did you know that just.
Speaker 2: One illegal immigrant caused six thousand people to lose their jobs?
Speaker 1: At Twitter? This guy Elon something.
Speaker 8: Well, this is not a good point.
Speaker 1: That's a good point. What's the biggest seller today?
Speaker 4: Right here?
Speaker 1: This on it all?
Speaker 8: It has?
Speaker 1: You know what, though, I got some merch? What you got?
Speaker 1: If he loses the election was stolen? What if he wins?
Speaker 1: You say, look, the election was not stolen. Okay, how
Speaker 1: about this one?
Speaker 2: To commemorate the Trump rally of Madison Square Garden, I'm
Speaker 2: with twenty thousand stupids arrows all around.
Speaker 1: Why I think it's going to be a big setting.
Speaker 1: This is a human dog collar. A lot of Trump
Speaker 1: fans can wear this if found. Return to Staten Island, guys,
Speaker 1: we got to fix you up with some merch. I'm
Speaker 1: selling merch, you know, yeah, especially you. Here. Here's what
Speaker 1: I got for you, Trump condoms.
Speaker 4: There you go.
Speaker 1: Here, here's what they look like.
Speaker 2: You know, they have more value if you keep them
Speaker 2: in the wrapper, which I'm sure you won't have any
Speaker 2: problem doing. And then here you can also have these.
Speaker 2: These are the Arnold Palmer size.
Speaker 8: You got a question for you?
Speaker 1: Are you going in? No, I'm not going in.
Speaker 2: I wanted to speak, but they said we don't need
Speaker 2: dogs and we have way too many puppets already.
Speaker 1: Do you love RFK Junior?
Speaker 15: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Kay, okay, if you like r F Junior, raise your
Speaker 2: hand as far as the polio will allow.
Speaker 1: RFK is a real hero, isn't he?
Speaker 2: I mean, because being a hero is all about sacrifice,
Speaker 2: and that man is sacrificed principle.
Speaker 1: He ever had to endorse Donald Trump?
Speaker 2: Between him and me, that's two of us who've had
Speaker 2: their balls cut off.
Speaker 1: How much better.
Speaker 8: Comm Donald Trump doesn't need notes.
Speaker 2: Donald Trump does not need notes to stand and wander
Speaker 2: around the stage while Ave Maria plays six times.
Speaker 1: They're absolutely viting. You can't put a soundtrack and laughter
Speaker 1: on you. Oh, I don't need one. Listen to those people.
Speaker 4: Listen.
Speaker 1: Let me hear it, Danny show lest me. The liberals
Speaker 1: are going nuts. Yes, I'm sorry.
Speaker 2: I don't mean to insinuate that Trump is out of
Speaker 2: his mind.
Speaker 1: I'm stating it bluntly. Trump is out of his mind.
Speaker 1: I gotta say it.
Speaker 15: It's a nice crowd, but a lot of angry white
Speaker 15: guys here got to admit. What do you think is
Speaker 15: less likely that Haitians are eating cats or that any
Speaker 15: of the guys here have ever eatenrum?
Speaker 1: Why do you think the Trump?
Speaker 16: You have this guy in the curtain and we get
Speaker 16: the punchline, then ship on me this with a collar
Speaker 16: for Yoka.
Speaker 1: All right, these people are out of their minds.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna have to change into something that would command
Speaker 2: more respect around here.
Speaker 1: Okay, let's do this.
Speaker 7: How's everyone going?
Speaker 8: Don't jump Trump? Here we go.
Speaker 1: Look at my old friend. We both took a crook
Speaker 1: on Natty Blunchi's gas right, I don't know, but I
Speaker 1: don't remember. Come on, what a dump? What a dump
Speaker 1: we took in there? I want a storm of Snrouser's vagina.
Speaker 1: Who's worked me? Folks were on the verge of something
Speaker 1: very special? Can you feel it? You know? The other
Speaker 1: side the talk about.
Speaker 2: Record low and unemployment record I, stock market, infrastructure, blah
Speaker 2: blah blah.
Speaker 14: But this election is more than about issues that quote
Speaker 14: unquote affect us.
Speaker 1: This election is personal, Am I right?
Speaker 14: It's about sticking it to those elitist liberals, those elitists
Speaker 14: who hate millionaires. But you know what, on November fifth,
Speaker 14: those elitists, they're gonna be the ones crying, and we're
Speaker 14: gonna be the ones drinking.
Speaker 1: Liberal tears, liberal tears.
Speaker 15: Liberal tears, everybody, liberal tears.
Speaker 1: I love them. Solved the liberal tears. I won't have
Speaker 1: medical in two years. But at least I don't know
Speaker 1: that there's liberal.
Speaker 16: Teers, liberal tears, liberal tears.
Speaker 1: LB, are you el liberal tears?
Speaker 14: Go in the shitter.
Speaker 1: But I'm frightful and bitter. We're all throwing mud and rails.
Speaker 14: Ands are flooding, and just as UPTONEUS five.
Speaker 1: Billionaire zonus thy candidates lion, the planet is tying.
Speaker 16: But the roles are quiet, so I say three cheers
Speaker 16: and the pay because my dream is to drown in them.
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, never cares.
Speaker 13: Who works, Thank you Triumph.
Speaker 8: When we come back, Maria Teresa Kuma'll be joining me
Speaker 8: on the show, so don't go away. Welcome back to
Speaker 8: that daily show.
Speaker 4: My guest tonight is the co founder and president of
Speaker 4: Voto Latino. Please welcome Maria Teresa Kuma. That's something on
Speaker 4: the show. Yeah your Latino. Your last name is Kuma.
Speaker 4: I guess everybody's mind. Yeah, well I guess it makes
Speaker 4: youre the ultimate brown person.
Speaker 3: Actually, my children because they are half Jewish, they are
Speaker 3: quarter of South Asian actually quarter South Asian, quarter Jewish,
Speaker 3: and then all Latina.
Speaker 4: So there you go, brown Asians and Latinos. You gotta
Speaker 4: get that, like the meme like there's a very afraid So,
Speaker 4: I mean, you know, it's similarities of Asians. I mean,
Speaker 4: you know, whereever people talk about the Asian voting block,
Speaker 4: I always kind of tell them like, oh, well, not
Speaker 4: really a monolith. That's a lot of different types of Asians. Yeah,
Speaker 4: and I assume the same is with Latinos.
Speaker 3: One hundred percent Latinos, Like if if the Colombian soccer
Speaker 3: team is playing. That's why I cheer for right. Don't
Speaker 3: tell me that Sancocho is better for the Puerto Ricans
Speaker 3: or the Dominicans, because Colombian Psychocho is better. But you
Speaker 3: know what, we're not a monolith or we are a
Speaker 3: monolith when it comes to Latino rights. All Latinos come together.
Speaker 8: Rights along the line. Okay, I mean, I got I
Speaker 8: got to take a wood for that.
Speaker 4: I mean, is it like, how like? In what ways
Speaker 4: does the vote the Latino voting block differ from let's say,
Speaker 4: the average American voter in their concerns and well, I.
Speaker 3: Mean, look when you talk when you put an abortion
Speaker 3: on the ballot, Latinos really care because what folks don't
Speaker 3: realize is that the average American voter, white voter is
Speaker 3: forty eight years old. The average Latino voter is thirty one.
Speaker 4: Okay, when you say that they care, which way do
Speaker 4: they care?
Speaker 3: They care to have agency and act us over their bodies.
Speaker 3: They want to make sure that they cannot only have
Speaker 3: access to abortion, but they also want to make sure
Speaker 3: that they have access to health care. And it's something
Speaker 3: that's super important to them. And one of the things
Speaker 3: that I think the right has gotten wrong. Is this idea.
Speaker 3: I'll give you an example. When Mitt Romney was running
Speaker 3: for president, my grandmother called me. My grandmother got married
Speaker 3: when she was thirteen years old. She had eight children.
Speaker 3: He gets up every single morning at four o'clock in
Speaker 3: the morning and does the Rosary. And she called me
Speaker 3: and said, Maria Tresa, I hear Romney wants to take
Speaker 3: away abortion. And I said, oh no, Grandma, I'm going
Speaker 3: to have to tell you that I'm on the board
Speaker 3: of plant Parenthood. Talk about an awkward conversation with your
Speaker 3: eighty nine year old grandmother, right, And then she said,
Speaker 3: lauina and she and then you know, she said, she said,
Speaker 3: I love all my children equally, but had I had choices,
Speaker 3: I would have made different ones. And so I want
Speaker 3: to make sure that other women have different choices, and so.
Speaker 8: To break.
Speaker 3: But I have to tell you, Ronnie, to break that awkwardness.
Speaker 3: I said, okay, Grandma, So you're telling me that you
Speaker 3: love them all equally? Which uncle would you not have had?
Speaker 8: Wow?
Speaker 4: What did she say?
Speaker 8: She hung up really quick?
Speaker 4: Wit So okay, So I mean back to the idea.
Speaker 4: I mean that's this, I guess the in From my perspective,
Speaker 4: I always hear about how the Latino vote is much
Speaker 4: more conservative than people would assume because of you know,
Speaker 4: we associate minorities kind of with left wing politics, but
Speaker 4: in the case of Latino they seem to be you know,
Speaker 4: there's characteristics in the conservative side that really appeal to them.
Speaker 3: So this again, this is where it gets really awkward.
Speaker 3: Like literally close to sixty percent of Latino voters are
Speaker 3: under the age of forty, and so when you talk
Speaker 3: to a lot of Latino voters, they're disproportionately young people.
Speaker 3: And what do I have to do to for a
Speaker 3: young person. I don't have to convince them that climate
Speaker 3: change is real, Okay, I need to convince them that
Speaker 3: they have to vote, and if they vote for the
Speaker 3: right people that believe in climate change, then they can
Speaker 3: change policy. And so when the people say again that
Speaker 3: Latinos are not a monolith, it's really around generational stuff.
Speaker 3: And so again it's a matter how do you mobilize them.
Speaker 3: And one of the reasons that we're here today is
Speaker 3: because we're celebrating National Early Vote Day. Sure, and the
Speaker 3: way you get young people to get to participate is
Speaker 3: you talk to them about the issues they care about.
Speaker 3: In this case, they care about housing is too damn high,
Speaker 3: They care about abortion, and you know what they don't like.
Speaker 3: They don't like racists.
Speaker 4: Are you.
Speaker 8: Are you sure?
Speaker 4: Are you sure they don't like racist because maybe it
Speaker 4: doesn't sit well. I mean, but so you're saying that
Speaker 4: the Latino voting block, in your opinion, is more it's
Speaker 4: more divided according to generation than ethnicity. Yes, Latinos, okay,
Speaker 4: So to.
Speaker 3: Give you an idea, So if you look at Arizona,
Speaker 3: Arizona was able to flip for the Democrats in twenty
Speaker 3: twenty was because you have a massive group of young
Speaker 3: Latinos coming of age. To give you an example, Biden
Speaker 3: won Arizona by ten four hundred votes. Since then, over
Speaker 3: one hundred and sixty thousand Latinos have turned eighteen, just
Speaker 3: in Arizona. And you know what politicized them, racism, Sheriff
Speaker 3: Arpaio shown.
Speaker 8: Your people are so.
Speaker 4: No, this is this is this all sounds great, But
Speaker 4: then so what is the issue?
Speaker 1: Why?
Speaker 4: Why is it even? Then?
Speaker 3: It's I mean, it's that's the that's the right question.
Speaker 3: It's even because the massive amount of Latino voters that
Speaker 3: have come of age, have not been fully registered. My
Speaker 3: life's work is trying to register voters as soon as
Speaker 3: they turn eighteen. A Latino voter turns eighteen every thirty
Speaker 3: seconds of this country.
Speaker 4: Right, So you're hanging around high schools with like, hey,
Speaker 4: ten years.
Speaker 3: A little, you're your democracy and freedom if you vote
Speaker 3: for me.
Speaker 4: No, no, but no.
Speaker 3: But so that that's the biggest gap, right, So when
Speaker 3: people say Latinos don't care when vote Latino.
Speaker 4: When we were said that, I didn't say that.
Speaker 9: No.
Speaker 3: No, you know, I'm not trying to put forward no,
Speaker 3: but oftentimes people will. There will be headlines it's like
Speaker 3: Latinos the sleeping giant, right, And those are serious questions
Speaker 3: because the biggest challenge for the Latino community is to
Speaker 3: close the voter registration gap. There's roughly ten million Latinos
Speaker 3: that are not registered, and the majority of them are
Speaker 3: literally under the age of twenty nine. If you ask yourself,
Speaker 3: why why do they have all these laws trying to
Speaker 3: prevent the vote, It's because we live in a multicultural
Speaker 3: America that's disproportionately young, that has a very different worldview
Speaker 3: than the people controlling most branches of government, and so
Speaker 3: our job is to say, look, we need you not
Speaker 3: only to register, but vote early and make sure that
Speaker 3: you're doing it in droves, because oftentimes people wait until
Speaker 3: the last minute then all of a sudden, if you're
Speaker 3: working an hourly job, you don't you don't have time.
Speaker 3: You can't afford to stand in line for hours. But
Speaker 3: you can if you start voting right now.
Speaker 4: Sure, And I mean I yeah thatsoes applause, Yeah, you
Speaker 4: should vote right now.
Speaker 8: You should vote right now. I mean, I mean I
Speaker 8: agree that.
Speaker 4: Well, we seem to be in a moment in time
Speaker 4: when it seems to be a generational battle between old
Speaker 4: people and old people and then like younger people, I
Speaker 4: do feel that. But I guess I'm asking you, and
Speaker 4: it seems to you seem to be telling me that
Speaker 4: even I don't think, for granted that just because you're young,
Speaker 4: you're you're not conservative? Correct, So I'm asking you if
Speaker 4: you're young Latino people, I mean they could I mean,
Speaker 4: are you that confident that they don't skew fifty fifty conservatives?
Speaker 3: They're absolutely not fifty to fifty, I can tell you.
Speaker 3: Like even even so, we do tons of focus groups
Speaker 3: all the time, Like you're gonna have to come over, Ronnie,
Speaker 3: and I'll just bury you into data and you're gonna
Speaker 3: love it as super sex. But we actually our job
Speaker 3: is to actually better understand, right, and so I will
Speaker 3: tell you, like the last pool we took. When you
Speaker 3: look at Latino young voters, seventy percent of them are
Speaker 3: for Kamala Harris.
Speaker 1: Seven out of time.
Speaker 3: So our job, our job is to get them out.
Speaker 4: Okay, so how do you Yeah? Well, okay, well that
Speaker 4: that sounds good. But again I'm just like this is easy.
Speaker 4: Is still even then? Who is not missing?
Speaker 1: They're not?
Speaker 3: No, no, Well that's what that is. Why it was
Speaker 3: so important when Bad Bunny and Jennifer Lopez came out
Speaker 3: for Kamla Harris because we are constantly in these balconized
Speaker 3: media environments. Young people get their information from TikTok Bad
Speaker 3: Bunny talking to low information voters saying, hey, look over here,
Speaker 3: this guy's a racist. He does he believes that Puerto
Speaker 3: Ricans are garbage. But here, come and vote for Kamala
Speaker 3: Harris because he actually has a plan. That's why he
Speaker 3: was so important. It's not just like his leadership, it's
Speaker 3: more of like he gets to talk to audiences that
Speaker 3: don't consume information in traditional ways.
Speaker 4: Sure well. And on that point, like so you think
Speaker 4: this this MSG rally stuff about Porto Ricans do is
Speaker 4: this is this going to move the needle or not?
Speaker 3: I can tell you that at both of us. You know,
Speaker 3: the amount of celebrities that have come out through the
Speaker 3: woodwork have been phenomenal, but also business leaders. And this
Speaker 3: is the thing. When he went after Puerto Ricans, that comedian,
Speaker 3: he went after all of us, because in the Latino community,
Speaker 3: we recognize code, we recognize dog whistles. When Donald Trum
Speaker 3: decided that he was going to run for office because
Speaker 3: he said he was calling Mexicans rapists and criminals, we
Speaker 3: all in the Latino community heard that dog whistle and
Speaker 3: we organized starting in twenty eighteen and twenty twenty and
Speaker 3: twenty twenty two. And our job now is basically to
Speaker 3: stand firm and make sure that we're participating, and that
Speaker 3: is learning about how to how to vote, Go to
Speaker 3: vote Latina dot org and vote Latina lot door dot
Speaker 3: or is for everybody, not just Latinos, but our allies
Speaker 3: and our friends, because we want everybody voting and to
Speaker 3: well not you tell.
Speaker 1: Me that's it.
Speaker 8: That's a physical offense.
Speaker 4: But yeah, so yeah, today is national the early Day,
Speaker 4: and you're all with the organization Votto Latino and you
Speaker 4: want to tell us a bit about what you guys do.
Speaker 3: And we basically in twenty ten, the census said that
Speaker 3: Latinas were the second largest demographic of a voter of Americans.
Speaker 3: But we didn't come of age as the second largest
Speaker 3: demographic voters until twenty eighteen. So we got to work.
Speaker 3: We said, where are the possibilities of moving elections? And
Speaker 3: we register voters all the time, and we mobilize them
Speaker 3: and we inform them. And for us, it's like, how
Speaker 3: do you nurture a relationship? You give that love. Our
Speaker 3: democracy is a relationship, and how we nurture it is
Speaker 3: with our votes.
Speaker 4: We have abusive relationship at this point.
Speaker 3: But did you well no, because you know what, we
Speaker 3: voted in record number in twenty eighteen and twenty twenty,
Speaker 3: and then all of a sudden, we got insulin costs
Speaker 3: came down to thirty five dollars. We actually got loan
Speaker 3: forgiveness for billions of dollars, Like we finally started showing
Speaker 3: up and we have the best climate.
Speaker 4: Because you facts, I feel sad.
Speaker 8: I feel sad.
Speaker 3: The person who does care is the person that doesn't
Speaker 3: have to pay two thousand dollars friends.
Speaker 4: No, I agree. I think that people facts, which brings
Speaker 4: you in to another thing you guys do, which is
Speaker 4: you battle off disinformation all that all the time.
Speaker 3: And so one of the things that we've learned is
Speaker 3: that the and when you say why aren't young people
Speaker 3: paying attention oftentimes, is that the massive amount of dispperration
Speaker 3: they're getting online on TikTok in particular is very real.
Speaker 3: So our job is to say, what are you listening to?
Speaker 3: And how do we combat it. The other thing we know,
Speaker 3: and this is I think where we have a lot
Speaker 3: of com with the Asian American community, is that oftentimes
Speaker 3: our elders are getting bad information and it's that young
Speaker 3: person that basically breaks the fever, says no, that's not
Speaker 3: exactly what happened.
Speaker 4: It breaks the fever or just unending fight, but they
Speaker 4: eventually listen. Yeah. I mean, And on that note, I mean,
Speaker 4: you see, we all you know, while here we're kind
Speaker 4: of like preaching to acquire a little bit, but we do.
Speaker 4: I'd just like to ask you, like, what would you
Speaker 4: say to conservative Latino voters right now, who might be
Speaker 4: on the fence or what would you tell them.
Speaker 3: To Yeah, so my grandmother always says you are who
Speaker 3: you are, who your friends are.
Speaker 4: We look at the camera, looking at the cameras your friend.
Speaker 3: Yeah, my grandmother says, you are who your friends are.
Speaker 3: And so if Donald Trump's friends are calling our community garbage,
Speaker 3: if they're talking about massive importation, if they are talking
Speaker 3: about this idea of separating families or deporting whole families,
Speaker 3: they're talking about you. Because the moment you step out
Speaker 3: that door, you present as brown. And our job right
Speaker 3: now is safeguard our democracy. And if Kamala Harris can
Speaker 3: bring Dick Cheney in AOC under one tent, that's a
Speaker 3: call for our democracy right.
Speaker 8: Now, that call for better put Latino president Maria. There's
Speaker 8: that pulled on everybody. What about the great break? Wait
Speaker 8: right back after this, every that's our show for tonight.
Speaker 4: But before we go, today is vote early day and Tuesday,
Speaker 4: November fifth is election day. So please encourage your friends
Speaker 4: to go to vovo vote dot com to make a
Speaker 4: plan to vote this election. It's very important now here.
Speaker 4: It is your moment of zen.
Speaker 9: The problem with the hydrogen curve. Something goes wrong. It's
Speaker 9: like the Adam bomb would if you're not recognizable.
Speaker 1: But they say we think we.
Speaker 9: Have it under control.
Speaker 4: That's not good enough.
Speaker 9: They'll say, we thought it was Marjorie tayl Agreen riding
Speaker 9: down the middle of the turnpike, but she still longer recognized.
Speaker 8: We found some of her, I won't say we love
Speaker 8: her stand up.
