1 00:00:01,280 --> 00:00:04,240 Speaker 1: Welcome to the Tutor Dixon Podcast. Today we have Hogan 2 00:00:04,240 --> 00:00:07,240 Speaker 1: Gidley with us. He was the former White House Deputy 3 00:00:07,240 --> 00:00:10,800 Speaker 1: Press Secretary under President Trump and the vice chair of 4 00:00:11,119 --> 00:00:16,400 Speaker 1: America First Policy Institute's Center for Election Integrity. Obviously we're 5 00:00:16,400 --> 00:00:19,439 Speaker 1: watching me that closely right now, But Hogan, I want 6 00:00:19,480 --> 00:00:22,759 Speaker 1: to get to this past weekend, over Labor Day weekend, 7 00:00:22,800 --> 00:00:27,920 Speaker 1: we had Kamala Harris campaigning in both Michigan and Pennsylvania. 8 00:00:28,040 --> 00:00:32,080 Speaker 1: I think one of the biggest notable things that happened 9 00:00:32,080 --> 00:00:34,800 Speaker 1: over the weekend was that she had the same speech, 10 00:00:34,880 --> 00:00:38,519 Speaker 1: she had the same conversation in both places, but she 11 00:00:38,680 --> 00:00:41,479 Speaker 1: had Joe Biden with her in Pennsylvania. I wanted to 12 00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:43,880 Speaker 1: talk a little bit about the optics of that, because 13 00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:46,959 Speaker 1: obviously people are concerned about her being out with him 14 00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:50,400 Speaker 1: too much. They wanted him in Pennsylvania because you know Scranton, Joe, 15 00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:52,880 Speaker 1: He's going to be able to bring in the voters. 16 00:00:53,200 --> 00:00:55,560 Speaker 1: But I thought that the body language was very weird 17 00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:58,320 Speaker 1: in Pennsylvania, and as a woman, it really struck me 18 00:00:58,400 --> 00:01:02,200 Speaker 1: because I noticed he was holding her while he's speaking 19 00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:04,120 Speaker 1: with his arm around her. He kissed her on the 20 00:01:04,200 --> 00:01:07,640 Speaker 1: head like she was a child. This is not instilling 21 00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:10,640 Speaker 1: confidence in the American people that she is a person 22 00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:12,280 Speaker 1: on her own. He would never have done that to 23 00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:15,480 Speaker 1: a man. Why is she accepting being treated like this? 24 00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:18,120 Speaker 2: Well, that's a great question for me to try to 25 00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:21,240 Speaker 2: get in Kamala's head. Obviously it's a very scary place 26 00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:21,480 Speaker 2: to be. 27 00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:25,080 Speaker 1: We've all been wondering what's happening in her hair. 28 00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:27,759 Speaker 2: And it's obvious. I don't think she knows what's going 29 00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:31,160 Speaker 2: on in her head. Most of the time. The optics 30 00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:33,760 Speaker 2: were very bad. That's you know, what everyone sees right 31 00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:36,039 Speaker 2: off the bat is a man who clearly is frail. 32 00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:40,600 Speaker 2: He is feeble, he is fragile. He's had a cognitive decline, 33 00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:44,800 Speaker 2: physical decline now for a long time. And with Kamala 34 00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:48,240 Speaker 2: Harris being there, she's literally the person who is lying 35 00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:52,680 Speaker 2: about it. For years, she was a participant, if not 36 00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:55,600 Speaker 2: the leader, of a cover up of just how bad 37 00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:58,280 Speaker 2: Joe Biden was. I bet they won't bring him out 38 00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:01,560 Speaker 2: on the campaign trail much more, if at all, his 39 00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:05,480 Speaker 2: speech was slurred, which is not unusual. He loses constantly 40 00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:10,000 Speaker 2: to stairs and teleprompters and you know whatever else. Microphones 41 00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:12,200 Speaker 2: hurt him and just whatever gets in his way seems 42 00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:15,919 Speaker 2: to really trip him up. And to watch her stand 43 00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:18,760 Speaker 2: there and try and like prevent herself from cringing, and 44 00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:20,920 Speaker 2: a lot of the things he was doing was also 45 00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:24,600 Speaker 2: kind of funny. It really does expose the fact the 46 00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:27,600 Speaker 2: whole thing is a show. It's it is it's fake, 47 00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:30,799 Speaker 2: it is phony. People are starting to catch on to it, 48 00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:36,200 Speaker 2: and leading up to the convention, where you had billions 49 00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:40,000 Speaker 2: of dollars of free positive press for Kamala Harris by 50 00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:44,000 Speaker 2: media that's complicit and compliant with everything the left does. 51 00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:49,280 Speaker 2: You're I'm surprised. You might not be, but I'm surprised 52 00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:52,000 Speaker 2: she's not up twenty five points in these states because 53 00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:54,240 Speaker 2: of what they've given her. But she isn't because she's 54 00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:57,280 Speaker 2: less likable than Joe Biden and she's more radical. Well, 55 00:02:57,320 --> 00:02:59,360 Speaker 2: I just don't think it's going to play well over time. No. 56 00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:02,280 Speaker 1: I think that's really interesting point because people keep saying 57 00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:04,760 Speaker 1: she's up now, she's up now, but it's really only 58 00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:09,000 Speaker 1: like one point eight points above Trump. I mean, you're 59 00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:11,400 Speaker 1: not even talking you're talking about well within the margin 60 00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:14,639 Speaker 1: vera and I would say, you have people saying, well, 61 00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:18,079 Speaker 1: why isn't Trump so much higher? But there has been 62 00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:21,120 Speaker 1: all this fanfare. There was this big love fest at 63 00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:24,040 Speaker 1: the DNC. Now we haven't seen her come out. I mean, 64 00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:27,880 Speaker 1: she did the one interview. The interview never pushed back 65 00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:30,600 Speaker 1: on anything. I mean even when Dana Bash attempted to 66 00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:34,080 Speaker 1: a little bit. But there wasn't a discussion on, well, 67 00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:37,400 Speaker 1: what are you going to do about Afghanistan, what are 68 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:39,360 Speaker 1: you going to do about Roan, what are you going 69 00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:43,280 Speaker 1: to do about Israel? How will you handle putin none 70 00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:45,720 Speaker 1: of the hard questions. And I think you know, on 71 00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:48,360 Speaker 1: the national scale, we are getting caught up in a 72 00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:52,440 Speaker 1: lot of these social issues. But America has a place 73 00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:54,760 Speaker 1: in the world that keeps peace and there is no 74 00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:59,440 Speaker 1: denying that that has been our role for decades and decades. 75 00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:01,680 Speaker 1: And yet she has not had to speak to what 76 00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:03,800 Speaker 1: she will do on the world stage at all. And 77 00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:07,000 Speaker 1: then we saw what happen over the weekend with losing 78 00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:10,520 Speaker 1: an American hostage, and my gosh, you would have thought 79 00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:13,440 Speaker 1: that they didn't have any connection to this person whatsoever. 80 00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:20,640 Speaker 2: Right, it is consistent with Kamala Harris so far. I 81 00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:22,440 Speaker 2: guess it's been for an entire career, but this one 82 00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:26,760 Speaker 2: for sure. You know, she keeps saying things like in 83 00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:28,960 Speaker 2: the future, on day one, I'm going to do this. 84 00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:30,719 Speaker 2: If you elect me, I'm going to do this, I 85 00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:35,719 Speaker 2: promise I will. You're the sitting vice president, so all 86 00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:39,560 Speaker 2: these problems have been caused by your administration. To pretend 87 00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:41,159 Speaker 2: as though you're going to try and fix them on 88 00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:44,560 Speaker 2: day one is ridiculous. When day one started four years ago, 89 00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:48,040 Speaker 2: you had the opportunity. It's like, if only she been 90 00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:50,840 Speaker 2: in a position of power from which to try and 91 00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:53,040 Speaker 2: do any of the things she's talking about. Oh, that's right, 92 00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:55,640 Speaker 2: she has been. She's running like Donald Trump's the incumbent. 93 00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:58,960 Speaker 2: She's the incumbent, and so she can't address these things 94 00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:01,200 Speaker 2: you talk about her not talking about it. She can't 95 00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:04,680 Speaker 2: address them because if she does, it's an admission that 96 00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:08,719 Speaker 2: she's at fault. The same thing applies to this hostage situation. 97 00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:14,600 Speaker 2: The Biden administration, yes, has given money arms to Israel, 98 00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:17,080 Speaker 2: but they slow walked a lot of it too, and 99 00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:20,360 Speaker 2: paused because they wanted the strategy first, right. They want 100 00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:23,560 Speaker 2: to make sure that Israel was conducting the war the 101 00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:28,080 Speaker 2: right way. Even though the casualty ratio of civilians to 102 00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:31,960 Speaker 2: combatants or terrorists is the best we've seen in modern 103 00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:36,440 Speaker 2: warfare history. By the way, they want receipts on all 104 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:39,080 Speaker 2: the things. They don't do that for Ukraine. Here's the money, 105 00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:41,560 Speaker 2: just do it, do whatever you want to with it. Also, 106 00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:44,440 Speaker 2: slow walking that aid is exactly what they tried to 107 00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:47,600 Speaker 2: accuse Trump of with Ukraine, and they impeached him for it. 108 00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:52,479 Speaker 2: So where's that trial. So this whole thing could have 109 00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:55,359 Speaker 2: been prevented. We should not be paying more for gas 110 00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:57,440 Speaker 2: and for groceries. We should not have a wide open 111 00:05:57,520 --> 00:06:02,200 Speaker 2: southern border. Every rape, murder, homicide, burglary, assault committed by 112 00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:04,760 Speaker 2: an illegal alien is one hundred percent preventable because they 113 00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:06,640 Speaker 2: shouldn't be here in the first place. But they let 114 00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:09,120 Speaker 2: them in, their wars all over the place breaking out 115 00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:11,600 Speaker 2: because of the weak, feckless foreign policy. Remember it was 116 00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:14,520 Speaker 2: Joe Biden who told Russia, hey, if it's a small incursion, 117 00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:16,120 Speaker 2: it's okay. If you want to just kind of take 118 00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:19,880 Speaker 2: part of Ukraine, that's fine. So these things are starting 119 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:22,000 Speaker 2: to bubble up and bubble over and people are seeing 120 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:24,160 Speaker 2: this going wait a minute, you're at fault for all 121 00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:26,640 Speaker 2: of it. And the exclamation point was the killing of 122 00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:32,279 Speaker 2: an American citizen over the weekend, hamas a terrorist organization, 123 00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:36,320 Speaker 2: and you're wondering why our government, yes, is funding Israel, 124 00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:40,560 Speaker 2: but they're also funding Iran, the world's largest state sponsor 125 00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:43,920 Speaker 2: of terror, who, through their proxies Hamas, are committing all 126 00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:47,880 Speaker 2: of these atrocities. This is all on Kamala Harris and it 127 00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:50,960 Speaker 2: acts like these things are happening to her, but they're 128 00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:54,560 Speaker 2: happening because of her. That's her problem, and she won't 129 00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:55,320 Speaker 2: address it. 130 00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:57,960 Speaker 1: And that's what I've said in Michigan for people who say, 131 00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:00,360 Speaker 1: you know, well, we've got a split state. Who are 132 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:02,719 Speaker 1: you going to go to and say, will you go 133 00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:05,280 Speaker 1: to the Arab American community, will you go to the 134 00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:08,400 Speaker 1: Jewish community? How will you marry these two together? And 135 00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:12,280 Speaker 1: I say, why are we not admitting to the fact 136 00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:15,600 Speaker 1: that giving money to Iran has hurt both of these communities. 137 00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:19,720 Speaker 1: It was the Biden administration, no other administration, was Biden 138 00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:23,680 Speaker 1: administration that destroyed the state, that pulled this state apart 139 00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:27,280 Speaker 1: because they gave money to kill both sides because they 140 00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:30,640 Speaker 1: knew what would happen. They knew that Israel would be 141 00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:33,880 Speaker 1: attacked and they knew ultimately that that would hurt the Palestinians. 142 00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:38,920 Speaker 1: The blood from both of those Gaza and Israel is 143 00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:41,480 Speaker 1: on the hands of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris and 144 00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:44,119 Speaker 1: the political pause. I want to know what you said, 145 00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:47,160 Speaker 1: because the point you're making is that they take a 146 00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:50,800 Speaker 1: political pause, not a strategic pause. And that's what they've 147 00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:53,760 Speaker 1: done in Israel. But that's also what Walls did in 148 00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:59,360 Speaker 1: Minnesota when we saw Minnesota, Minneapolis being torn apart. He paused, 149 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:02,720 Speaker 1: He let it happened. He wanted to have the political 150 00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:06,720 Speaker 1: discussion play out because he loved the political discourse. He 151 00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:10,080 Speaker 1: loved the optics of it. It was the same thing 152 00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:13,520 Speaker 1: in Israel. They like the optics of while we're playing 153 00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:17,360 Speaker 1: both sides, and we care about this group and we 154 00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:21,280 Speaker 1: care about that group. A political pause is probably the 155 00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:23,960 Speaker 1: most dangerous thing that can happen when you have somebody 156 00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:25,720 Speaker 1: with the nuclear codes, no. 157 00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:28,800 Speaker 2: Question, and you have someone like Hamas on the ropes. 158 00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:31,280 Speaker 2: Israel's on the verge of going in and eradicating them 159 00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:34,280 Speaker 2: in totality, and what's the Biden administration to do. It's 160 00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:37,040 Speaker 2: time for a ceasefire. No mention of Hamas giving up 161 00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:40,320 Speaker 2: the hostages. They have none of that. It's just the 162 00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:44,680 Speaker 2: pressures all on Israel to slow down and prevent not 163 00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:48,160 Speaker 2: just them from defending themselves, but for the eradication of terrorism. 164 00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:53,000 Speaker 2: And so it's a real problem. It looks bad, it 165 00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:58,199 Speaker 2: is bad, it feels gross because it is gross. This 166 00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:01,880 Speaker 2: government has failed the American in so many different ways, 167 00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:05,120 Speaker 2: and nowhere is that more obvious than the Middle East. 168 00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:08,280 Speaker 2: I mean, Donald Trump did things like moving the embassy 169 00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:12,040 Speaker 2: to its rightful place in Jerusalem, recognizing the Golan Heights, 170 00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:16,080 Speaker 2: rallying the region around a common enemy in Iran, and 171 00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:18,680 Speaker 2: he got pillaried for it. So he didn't know anything about 172 00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:20,880 Speaker 2: foreign policy. He was going to send the region into 173 00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:24,200 Speaker 2: some type of chaos, that wars would break out. The 174 00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:29,360 Speaker 2: exact opposite happened. So it shows you that the powers 175 00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:33,120 Speaker 2: that be in Washington clearly don't know what they're doing. 176 00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:36,000 Speaker 2: No one gets fired over this, They just stay in power, 177 00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:38,240 Speaker 2: or they move offices and get more money or something 178 00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:41,360 Speaker 2: like that. The failures are obvious both here at home 179 00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:45,120 Speaker 2: and on the international stage. Kamala Harris and Joe Biden 180 00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:47,720 Speaker 2: are to blame for it. And I'm hoping and praying 181 00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:51,480 Speaker 2: that in this condensed timeframe of this election, that even 182 00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:53,800 Speaker 2: though there's not a lot of time to kind of 183 00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:57,920 Speaker 2: pull this apart. When you see Kamala Harris speak, you 184 00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:03,720 Speaker 2: realize how just unpoppul she actually is, how unlikable she 185 00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:08,800 Speaker 2: actually is. The word salad continues that interview you mentioned, 186 00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:12,120 Speaker 2: it's just not good. She's not good at this, and 187 00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:14,960 Speaker 2: the platitudes are there, and she talks about things like 188 00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:17,600 Speaker 2: moving forward. We don't want to go back. Yeh, well, 189 00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:20,080 Speaker 2: we can't go back, although some of us would love 190 00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:22,400 Speaker 2: to go back to prices for gas and groceries we 191 00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:24,760 Speaker 2: can afford. I'd love to go back to that, but 192 00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:27,880 Speaker 2: it's not helpful for the American people because she's been 193 00:10:27,920 --> 00:10:32,920 Speaker 2: so harmful so far, and no amount of media cover 194 00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:37,720 Speaker 2: up will prevent the American people from feeling the brunt 195 00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:40,920 Speaker 2: of those bad policies. So they can say it's not happening, 196 00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:41,600 Speaker 2: but it is. 197 00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:45,760 Speaker 1: What I don't understand is we're looking at a situation 198 00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:48,839 Speaker 1: where we have American hostages. This is not it's not 199 00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:51,920 Speaker 1: just it's a year problem thing. These are Americans that 200 00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:55,320 Speaker 1: have been taken hostage. And my understanding is that the 201 00:10:55,400 --> 00:11:00,040 Speaker 1: government has worked tirelessly to get political prisoners out of 202 00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:02,200 Speaker 1: other countries. I mean Brittany Griner. I don't think she 203 00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:05,360 Speaker 1: was there for a year, and yet here we have 204 00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:08,520 Speaker 1: American hostages that are were coming up upon a year. 205 00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:13,079 Speaker 1: And I didn't hear Joe Biden say, hey, I'm working 206 00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:15,280 Speaker 1: with Natan Yahoo every day to figure out how we 207 00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:17,559 Speaker 1: can get our Americans home. I heard him say, yeah, 208 00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:19,400 Speaker 1: I don't think he's doing the right thing. So you're 209 00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:21,760 Speaker 1: not talking to him, so you're not negotiating with him, 210 00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:25,960 Speaker 1: So you don't have operatives there helping to get our hostages. 211 00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:28,840 Speaker 1: These are hostages. These are not people who are being 212 00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:32,000 Speaker 1: held in prison. And there's a negotiation going on with government. 213 00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:36,000 Speaker 1: Although Joe Biden seems to acknowledge Hamas as a true government. 214 00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:39,439 Speaker 1: I don't know how he can acknowledge that when they're 215 00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:42,000 Speaker 1: on the terror list, but he acknowledges them as a 216 00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:45,000 Speaker 1: true government. But he's not trying to do anything with 217 00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:49,360 Speaker 1: Israel to get our Americans home. When would this ever 218 00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:49,960 Speaker 1: be the case? 219 00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:53,840 Speaker 2: But remember they Hamas wasn't on the terror watch list. 220 00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:55,679 Speaker 2: I think they pull our terror list. I think they 221 00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:58,000 Speaker 2: pulled the bidaministation, pulled them off, and then put him 222 00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:01,000 Speaker 2: back on because I had to at this point, Look, 223 00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:04,800 Speaker 2: it is so rich for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris 224 00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:08,080 Speaker 2: to try and tell Benjamin Nett and Yahoo how to 225 00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:13,320 Speaker 2: operate when terrorists are literally on his doorstep, when they 226 00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:16,800 Speaker 2: couldn't even get out of Afghanistan properly with thirteen dead 227 00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:22,320 Speaker 2: American service men and women, it is ridiculous to say 228 00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:26,080 Speaker 2: he has any knowledge or idea of how to prosecute 229 00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:30,920 Speaker 2: a military operation at all, not to mention the fact, 230 00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:34,719 Speaker 2: if you flip it and go Ukraine Russia, what you're 231 00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:38,080 Speaker 2: seeing there with Joe Biden is no care in the 232 00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:41,280 Speaker 2: world about how they're spending the money, as I mentioned, 233 00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:44,280 Speaker 2: just kind of giving it over to them. No one cares. 234 00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:50,440 Speaker 2: And so both of these wars that have broken out 235 00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:55,600 Speaker 2: on Joe Biden's watch, on Kamala Harris's watch, you don't 236 00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:57,400 Speaker 2: have to guess whether or not they would have done 237 00:12:57,440 --> 00:13:00,840 Speaker 2: that under Trump he was president, and they didn't. They 238 00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:03,560 Speaker 2: didn't dare cross him the way they are doing with 239 00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:06,080 Speaker 2: Joe Biden. And this is long documented. I mean, how 240 00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:09,040 Speaker 2: many times do we hear from like the Defense secretary 241 00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:12,800 Speaker 2: under Obama that every foreign policy decision Joe Biden has 242 00:13:12,840 --> 00:13:16,080 Speaker 2: made has been wrong in his career. So this isn't new. 243 00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:19,240 Speaker 2: He's just a buffoon in a lot of different ways, 244 00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:23,120 Speaker 2: and nowhere is this more obvious than with the refusal 245 00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:27,560 Speaker 2: to support Israel the way they need support, even Ukraine 246 00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:31,319 Speaker 2: the way it needs support. They're not doing those things properly. 247 00:13:31,920 --> 00:13:35,359 Speaker 2: And at the same time, we have Americans being held hostage, 248 00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:38,680 Speaker 2: and he's not pressing that. He's giving away some of 249 00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:41,679 Speaker 2: the other ones like Britney Grinder, as you mentioned, trading 250 00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:45,200 Speaker 2: her for the Merchant of Death, like someone who's literally 251 00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:48,640 Speaker 2: called the Merchant of Death a terrorist. So the trades 252 00:13:48,679 --> 00:13:51,319 Speaker 2: aren't even necessarily that good. Now, I'm all for getting 253 00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:54,120 Speaker 2: hostages back. We did it in Trump administration. We didn't 254 00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:56,640 Speaker 2: have to give away billions of dollars to do it. 255 00:13:57,160 --> 00:14:02,119 Speaker 2: You want Americans home, but it's just so his ideas 256 00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:06,520 Speaker 2: are so wrong, and his care and concern often just misplaced, 257 00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:08,480 Speaker 2: and it's just ugly. 258 00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:11,080 Speaker 1: Stay tuned for more with Hogan Gidley, But first I 259 00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:14,040 Speaker 1: want to tell you about my partners at IFCJ. As 260 00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:16,720 Speaker 1: you know, we're quickly approaching the one year anniversary of 261 00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:20,360 Speaker 1: the horrible Hamas attacks on Israel, and still the Holy 262 00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:24,040 Speaker 1: Land continues to be attacked on multiple fronts. Deadly threats 263 00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:27,680 Speaker 1: are increasing in northern Israel, and the constant rocket attacks 264 00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:30,240 Speaker 1: from Hesbala that have been fired at Israel are now 265 00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:34,800 Speaker 1: causing widespread damage. It's causing raging wildfires that are destroying 266 00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:39,280 Speaker 1: precious farmland. Since the war started, the International Fellowship of 267 00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:42,480 Speaker 1: Christians and Jews has been on the forefront in Israel 268 00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:45,640 Speaker 1: addressing the needs of the most vulnerable. And that's why 269 00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:48,920 Speaker 1: I'm partnering with IFCJ today and you can too. Your 270 00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:52,760 Speaker 1: life saving donation will help provide emergency food and also 271 00:14:52,880 --> 00:14:57,640 Speaker 1: critical security needs like flak jackets, firefighting equipment, armored vehicles, 272 00:14:57,680 --> 00:15:01,240 Speaker 1: bomb shelters and more. Today looking looking for five hundred 273 00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:04,720 Speaker 1: listeners to join the Fellowship and me by donating one 274 00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:07,720 Speaker 1: hundred and fifty dollars to meet the urgent security needs. 275 00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:11,440 Speaker 1: And thanks to a generous IFCJ supporter, your gift will 276 00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:14,480 Speaker 1: be matched, doubling the impact in the Holyland. Call to 277 00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:17,080 Speaker 1: make your gift right now at eight eight eight four 278 00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:21,000 Speaker 1: eight eight IFCJ. That's eight eight eight four eight eight 279 00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:24,960 Speaker 1: four three two five, or go online to support IFCJ 280 00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:28,480 Speaker 1: dot org to give. That's one word, it's support IFCJ 281 00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:32,640 Speaker 1: dot org. Israel needs your support now more with Hogan 282 00:15:32,680 --> 00:15:38,960 Speaker 1: Gidley right after this. It seems very much like when 283 00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:43,480 Speaker 1: you have a high profile hostage or prisoner that people 284 00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:45,600 Speaker 1: are talking about on a regular basis, then it kind 285 00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:48,600 Speaker 1: of shames this administration into doing things. But what about 286 00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:50,480 Speaker 1: all of the families out there that are waiting for 287 00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:52,720 Speaker 1: their loved ones to come home. I haven't even heard 288 00:15:52,800 --> 00:15:55,040 Speaker 1: him say their names. I haven't heard him say the 289 00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:58,520 Speaker 1: names of the thirteen service members that were killed in Afghanistan. 290 00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:02,480 Speaker 1: He doesn't want to be there to commemorate them, and 291 00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:05,280 Speaker 1: she certainly hasn't been. I mean, this is the problem 292 00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:07,760 Speaker 1: transferring this over to Kamala Harris. I think that the 293 00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:10,560 Speaker 1: Democrats believe, hey, look we're just a few days now 294 00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:12,560 Speaker 1: from early voting. She hasn't had to come out and 295 00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:15,680 Speaker 1: talk about this stuff. She hasn't had to acknowledge the hostages, 296 00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:18,920 Speaker 1: she hasn't had to acknowledge Afghanistan. We can just move 297 00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:22,280 Speaker 1: on from all of the blunders and the disasters of 298 00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:25,600 Speaker 1: this administration and anoint her and she's going to be 299 00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:26,640 Speaker 1: the savior. 300 00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:27,040 Speaker 2: Now. 301 00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:29,920 Speaker 1: She's doing some strange things. Like I said, over the weekend, 302 00:16:30,040 --> 00:16:33,640 Speaker 1: she went to Pennsylvania, she went to Michigan, same speech, 303 00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:38,160 Speaker 1: but Michigan's had an accent to it that was different. 304 00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:41,760 Speaker 1: And this is something we saw with Hillary Clinton as well. 305 00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:44,640 Speaker 1: Hillary Clinton did this as well. It didn't work for her, 306 00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:47,200 Speaker 1: and I've her. I mean, I think it goes both ways. 307 00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:49,720 Speaker 1: Certainly some people find it charming, but I think there 308 00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:53,800 Speaker 1: are some people who find it offensive. Does this cover 309 00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:57,000 Speaker 1: up the fact that she, you know, having this personality 310 00:16:57,040 --> 00:16:59,960 Speaker 1: I I'm so cute, and I I have this accent 311 00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:03,800 Speaker 1: and I can play making food in my bathtub and 312 00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:07,520 Speaker 1: all these bizarre things that she's been talking about. Is 313 00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:09,640 Speaker 1: that working well. 314 00:17:09,680 --> 00:17:11,720 Speaker 2: I don't think it's going to ultimately, but as you said, 315 00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:14,840 Speaker 2: early voting starts early, and people are going to be 316 00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:17,560 Speaker 2: out there voting maybe before some of this stuff gets exposed. 317 00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:19,600 Speaker 2: You know, I went to the grocery store this past 318 00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:21,840 Speaker 2: week and I tried to pay for my groceries with vibes. 319 00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:25,440 Speaker 2: They didn't take it. They wouldn't they wouldn't let me joy. 320 00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:28,240 Speaker 2: I tried joy and they said take that either. And 321 00:17:28,280 --> 00:17:29,880 Speaker 2: I'm like, wait a minute, what are you talking about? 322 00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:33,960 Speaker 2: Moving forward? Can I pay with that? And like nope, sorry, Yeah, 323 00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:40,199 Speaker 2: it's a joke. The American people feel this, and no 324 00:17:40,320 --> 00:17:44,240 Speaker 2: amount of saying it's not happening, is going to cover 325 00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:46,320 Speaker 2: it up. In fact, it's offensive to a lot of 326 00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:50,000 Speaker 2: us out here who are facing this. And then for 327 00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:51,760 Speaker 2: the media and for Kama, let us say no, it's 328 00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:54,879 Speaker 2: not happening to you. That's where you begin to lose 329 00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:57,800 Speaker 2: people a lot. But the affect when she speaks is funny. 330 00:17:57,800 --> 00:17:59,639 Speaker 2: I'm glad you brought this up. I think it's just 331 00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:03,359 Speaker 2: a month all accent, probably because you know she spent 332 00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:07,600 Speaker 2: that time in Montreal growing up in this middle upper class. 333 00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:08,440 Speaker 1: That her French coming through. 334 00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:11,320 Speaker 2: It's her French guy, That's what it is. There was 335 00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:13,480 Speaker 2: a study that Yale did years ago. I just dug 336 00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:16,120 Speaker 2: it up because this comes out every election year, and 337 00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:21,080 Speaker 2: it basically says liberals change their affect, change the way 338 00:18:21,119 --> 00:18:24,440 Speaker 2: they talk when they're in front of different crowds. So 339 00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:26,320 Speaker 2: if they're in front of black crowds, they try and 340 00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:29,119 Speaker 2: sound more black. If they're in front of white crowds, 341 00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:31,120 Speaker 2: they try and sound more white. If they're in front 342 00:18:31,160 --> 00:18:34,800 Speaker 2: of southern crowds like Hillary, they try to sound more Southern. 343 00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:39,879 Speaker 2: They drop and use their accents often. It's another example 344 00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:41,840 Speaker 2: of her just being fake and phony. 345 00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:44,439 Speaker 1: That well, that's what I think the problem is we 346 00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:47,680 Speaker 1: don't know who she is. We don't She talks about, well, 347 00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:49,840 Speaker 1: you know, this is my plan, this is my plan, 348 00:18:50,160 --> 00:18:52,600 Speaker 1: but she then says nothing about what her plan is. 349 00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:55,480 Speaker 1: We've heard about this price gouging plan. I will tell 350 00:18:55,560 --> 00:19:00,000 Speaker 1: you that in Michigan. I've heard from farmers and from 351 00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:04,359 Speaker 1: folks who are looking at groceries and dealing in those 352 00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:07,720 Speaker 1: in those businesses, and they're saying those industries are saying, look, 353 00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:11,160 Speaker 1: this is a problem because once you start capping prices 354 00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:13,840 Speaker 1: and you start trying to control an industry, it's the 355 00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:15,919 Speaker 1: farmers that are going to hurt. We already have this 356 00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:19,480 Speaker 1: situation where family farms are going out of business. How 357 00:19:19,560 --> 00:19:22,280 Speaker 1: much more can the farmers take if we're going to 358 00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:26,000 Speaker 1: start capping prices on things and having this government control, 359 00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:28,679 Speaker 1: I mean, of all of the things that we're doing. 360 00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:31,720 Speaker 1: She's talking about that at the same time as talking 361 00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:36,119 Speaker 1: about giving away student loans, giving away twenty five thousand 362 00:19:36,200 --> 00:19:40,400 Speaker 1: dollars down payments for homes. Every time you give away money, 363 00:19:40,680 --> 00:19:43,760 Speaker 1: prices go up because that money's coming from somewhere. I 364 00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:45,640 Speaker 1: was talking to someone over the weekend and he said, 365 00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:48,880 Speaker 1: you know, I'm an infrastructure, he said, and every time 366 00:19:48,920 --> 00:19:52,320 Speaker 1: the Democrats are in office. He said, it's actually really 367 00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:54,680 Speaker 1: good for me because I get all of this money 368 00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:57,480 Speaker 1: and I start building and building and building. And he said, 369 00:19:57,520 --> 00:20:00,520 Speaker 1: but the problem is that it's not real money. It's 370 00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:03,480 Speaker 1: coming from all my workers, and they are he said, 371 00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:06,680 Speaker 1: I can watch it. I do well as the business guy. 372 00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:09,879 Speaker 1: They do worse, he said. When the Republicans are in 373 00:20:10,240 --> 00:20:13,959 Speaker 1: he said, I am pretty steady, he said. My employees 374 00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:16,359 Speaker 1: come way up. He said, but you know, I don't 375 00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:20,680 Speaker 1: tell them, Hey, all this money gets thrown around. It's 376 00:20:20,720 --> 00:20:24,840 Speaker 1: not responsible. That's the problem. We should be focused on infrastructure, 377 00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:27,399 Speaker 1: but you have to be focused on responsible spending. And 378 00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:29,440 Speaker 1: that is something that has been a struggle in DC. 379 00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:32,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, oh for a long time because people here protect 380 00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:34,639 Speaker 2: their feftoms and they figured out why to make money 381 00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:37,879 Speaker 2: regardless of who it hurts. I love the fact that 382 00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:40,440 Speaker 2: Oprah Winfrey was at the convention because you just said 383 00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:44,119 Speaker 2: it was actually perfect because the whole Democrat party and 384 00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:46,400 Speaker 2: platform is you get a student loan and you get 385 00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:49,200 Speaker 2: a down payment on a house, you get a free this, 386 00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:52,040 Speaker 2: that and the other. That's just typically the way they 387 00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:55,960 Speaker 2: do it. And Kamala, you said something that I disagree with, 388 00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:58,400 Speaker 2: which is we don't know where she stands, No, we do. 389 00:20:58,840 --> 00:21:01,439 Speaker 2: She reads her president and laid this out to the 390 00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:06,199 Speaker 2: American people meticulously. She is for banning fracking. She is 391 00:21:06,280 --> 00:21:09,720 Speaker 2: for ev mandates on cars, which would ruin Michigan, by 392 00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:11,719 Speaker 2: the way, which blows my mind that they would even 393 00:21:11,760 --> 00:21:14,760 Speaker 2: think about voting for someone that would eradicate their job. 394 00:21:14,840 --> 00:21:17,240 Speaker 2: But I digress, and it's your state, so maybe you 395 00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:19,680 Speaker 2: can figure that out. But she is for going after 396 00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:22,320 Speaker 2: your guns. She is for a government run healthcare system 397 00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:25,600 Speaker 2: to get rid of everyone has private healthcare. She is 398 00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:29,560 Speaker 2: for all of these radical things. She wants an open border, 399 00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:32,280 Speaker 2: and we know that because she did it. Okay, so 400 00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:37,400 Speaker 2: I'm sorry, changing those policies, changing in air quotes, scare 401 00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:41,280 Speaker 2: quotes here three weeks ago, telling you're telling me that's 402 00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:44,760 Speaker 2: to be believed. No way. What she wants is that 403 00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:48,040 Speaker 2: radical takeover. And when she had the chance to say no, 404 00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:50,760 Speaker 2: I'm really moderating, because she's putting it out via surrogates, 405 00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:53,719 Speaker 2: no name surrogates, no on the record surrogates, just you know, 406 00:21:53,760 --> 00:21:56,360 Speaker 2: some people floating these things out. She had a chance 407 00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:59,080 Speaker 2: to moderate and pick, like a VP candidate who would 408 00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:01,840 Speaker 2: be considered or modern least, and someone like jos Shapiro 409 00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:05,720 Speaker 2: in Pennsylvania, she says, no, I'm going Tim Waltz, the 410 00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:09,679 Speaker 2: guy who is implemented at the state level everything Kamala 411 00:22:09,760 --> 00:22:13,359 Speaker 2: Harris wishes she could implement from the federal government. He's 412 00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:17,600 Speaker 2: done all of those things in Minnesota, and you've seen 413 00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:21,240 Speaker 2: people by the tens of thousands leave that state. They 414 00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:24,000 Speaker 2: have a high tax rate, they have high crime out there. 415 00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:28,320 Speaker 2: You talked about watching the city burn. You saw the 416 00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:31,800 Speaker 2: video that came out of people walking out onto their 417 00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:34,320 Speaker 2: porch during COVID to get a breath of fresh air, 418 00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:37,359 Speaker 2: and the National Guard is marching down the streets in 419 00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:41,240 Speaker 2: riot gear shooting paintballs at people on the porches to 420 00:22:41,280 --> 00:22:44,680 Speaker 2: get him to go inside. If those same people had 421 00:22:44,680 --> 00:22:46,760 Speaker 2: stood on that porch and say no, no, don't shoot, we're 422 00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:48,840 Speaker 2: on our way to the BLM riots watch us burn 423 00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:51,679 Speaker 2: down Minneapolis, they would have said, oh yeah, sure, no problem, 424 00:22:51,760 --> 00:22:54,160 Speaker 2: because that was going on too, and no one said 425 00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:56,159 Speaker 2: a word about it. They let him do it. So 426 00:22:56,280 --> 00:22:59,000 Speaker 2: he's the embodiment of all the liberal things that she 427 00:22:59,119 --> 00:23:01,880 Speaker 2: stands for. And so while she may say now she's 428 00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:05,640 Speaker 2: changed those positions, sorry, I'm not giving her that because 429 00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:08,399 Speaker 2: she won on one interview and all she said was 430 00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:11,640 Speaker 2: my values haven't changed. She didn't say anything about the policy. 431 00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:14,520 Speaker 1: Let's take a quick commercial break. We'll continue next on 432 00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:21,800 Speaker 1: the Tutor Dixon podcast. Watch who's saying what? Because you 433 00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:25,800 Speaker 1: talk about her being in Michigan and the auto manufacturers 434 00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:29,120 Speaker 1: and the auto workers and why would they consider this, Well, 435 00:23:29,720 --> 00:23:33,200 Speaker 1: the rhetoric is really bizarre. Gretchen Whitmer was out there 436 00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:37,240 Speaker 1: campaigning with them, and she's been posting these videos the 437 00:23:37,280 --> 00:23:39,800 Speaker 1: last two days over and over again of her coming 438 00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:42,760 Speaker 1: out and saying Donald Trump has had a show for 439 00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:45,639 Speaker 1: his whole life. He's had this silver spoon. He doesn't 440 00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:48,399 Speaker 1: know what. He's never swung a hammer, he doesn't know 441 00:23:48,440 --> 00:23:50,720 Speaker 1: the difference between a flathead and Phillips had him like 442 00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:53,879 Speaker 1: the man's a builder. I mean, how bizarre is this? 443 00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:57,840 Speaker 1: Here is Gretchen Whitmer, whose father was the CEO of 444 00:23:57,920 --> 00:24:01,440 Speaker 1: a big insurance company. She lived a very very rich 445 00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:05,120 Speaker 1: life her entire life. She says that these he doesn't 446 00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:07,560 Speaker 1: know how to swing a hammer. The guys and the women, 447 00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:10,440 Speaker 1: the men and women out there who have been swinging hammers, 448 00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:14,199 Speaker 1: as she says, were considered non essential by her. She 449 00:24:14,359 --> 00:24:17,560 Speaker 1: told them their jobs didn't matter. How do these people 450 00:24:17,600 --> 00:24:20,200 Speaker 1: get away with They've never they've never had to work 451 00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:22,400 Speaker 1: a hard day's work in their life, and yet they're 452 00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:25,240 Speaker 1: out there saying, you know what we're for you, We 453 00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:28,679 Speaker 1: get you. They don't get us. They've never had to 454 00:24:28,720 --> 00:24:31,479 Speaker 1: deal with the regulations that they put on people like 455 00:24:31,560 --> 00:24:35,000 Speaker 1: my factory, our steel factory, that they said you're not 456 00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:37,000 Speaker 1: good enough to be here. You know how many times 457 00:24:37,080 --> 00:24:39,480 Speaker 1: they told us to move away, move out of the city. 458 00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:42,440 Speaker 1: And now we've got a city here that's struggling because 459 00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:45,960 Speaker 1: they chased off all of the industry. They've destroyed this state. 460 00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:48,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, and so much of the If you see there's 461 00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:50,879 Speaker 2: a chart out there that shows kind of the the 462 00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:56,080 Speaker 2: amount of hours spent or or the number of people 463 00:24:56,119 --> 00:24:59,800 Speaker 2: in the Trump administration that had been in private business 464 00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:03,800 Speaker 2: the Kamala Harris Joe Biden administration, where no one had been, 465 00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:07,399 Speaker 2: as you said, swinging a hammer, no one had actually 466 00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:09,879 Speaker 2: worked owning a company. But it's interesting because I think 467 00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:11,680 Speaker 2: I think John Stewart of all people, did a great 468 00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:13,800 Speaker 2: little breakdown of this on the show. It was the 469 00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:16,000 Speaker 2: viral clip that kind of made the rounds where it's 470 00:25:16,040 --> 00:25:21,040 Speaker 2: like you had a guy in Bernie Sanders railing on billionaires, which, 471 00:25:21,080 --> 00:25:24,160 Speaker 2: by the way, he used to rail on millionaires and billionaires. 472 00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:27,000 Speaker 2: Since he's a millionaire, he didn't say that anymore. Just 473 00:25:27,080 --> 00:25:31,560 Speaker 2: billionaires he's railing on. And the next speaker was Governor Prisker, 474 00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:35,800 Speaker 2: who's a billionaire. You had Waltz making fun of people 475 00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:39,040 Speaker 2: who went to Yale when they had a whole slew 476 00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:42,919 Speaker 2: of speakers who went to Yale. That's the difference between 477 00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:46,399 Speaker 2: the Democrat Party and the Republican Party. They're dividing along 478 00:25:46,440 --> 00:25:49,399 Speaker 2: these weird lines when they themselves are guilty of the 479 00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:52,399 Speaker 2: things they're accusing. Republicans of Republicans go up on stage 480 00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:54,359 Speaker 2: and say, you went to Yale. That's great. You went 481 00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:57,560 Speaker 2: to Ole miss like me. Great, you went to Michigan. Great. 482 00:25:58,040 --> 00:26:01,040 Speaker 2: They love the opportunity around this country in a different 483 00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:05,040 Speaker 2: you know, situations we can all find ourselves in, and 484 00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:08,640 Speaker 2: we celebrate those things. Democrats try to divide along those 485 00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:12,600 Speaker 2: lines when they themselves do the very thing they're mocking 486 00:26:13,480 --> 00:26:17,240 Speaker 2: the rest of America for doing. It's insane to watch them, 487 00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:21,359 Speaker 2: and it's so infuriating. I just I'm really hoping is 488 00:26:21,359 --> 00:26:23,480 Speaker 2: we dial in after the holiday and we're kind of 489 00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:27,439 Speaker 2: focused in on what we you know, what we're I 490 00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:31,240 Speaker 2: guess experiencing here in this election season. You really place 491 00:26:31,320 --> 00:26:33,920 Speaker 2: the blame where it belongs, and it's Soo's Democrats out 492 00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:36,639 Speaker 2: there who have not had to live under their own policies, 493 00:26:36,760 --> 00:26:40,080 Speaker 2: who have lived off the government now for a long time. 494 00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:41,760 Speaker 2: So you need more money. 495 00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:43,880 Speaker 1: That's the other thing that makes me mad. They take 496 00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:47,480 Speaker 1: a government salary their whole life. They never got taken 497 00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:50,240 Speaker 1: off of their government salary during COVID, and then they say, oh, 498 00:26:50,240 --> 00:26:52,080 Speaker 1: we're with the people that we shut down, that we 499 00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:57,760 Speaker 1: robbed their paycheck from. And the wealth situation, how about 500 00:26:57,760 --> 00:26:59,720 Speaker 1: you let me take it one step further. You got 501 00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:03,680 Speaker 1: Michelle Obama who says we don't have generational wealth. You've 502 00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:07,760 Speaker 1: got four houses, lady, and they're all worth millions of dollars. 503 00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:11,280 Speaker 1: And then you've got I've got Oprah. Oprah goes up 504 00:27:11,280 --> 00:27:14,320 Speaker 1: there and she says, you know, I've suffered with racism 505 00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:17,240 Speaker 1: and sexism and all this stuff. And I think, to myself, 506 00:27:17,680 --> 00:27:20,800 Speaker 1: you know what the point here, I think is that yeah, 507 00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:23,840 Speaker 1: we all will. It sucks, but it's human nature and 508 00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:26,600 Speaker 1: you're always going to be fighting. But in America, you 509 00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:30,400 Speaker 1: can achieve what Oprah's achieved. That's the difference. In this country. 510 00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:33,199 Speaker 1: You can fight back against it and you can achieves. 511 00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:37,159 Speaker 1: She is exactly the American dream. She went through it, 512 00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:42,640 Speaker 1: and she overcame and she became something incredible. And then 513 00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:45,000 Speaker 1: you've got Pritzker who goes up and here's a guy 514 00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:49,240 Speaker 1: who does have generational wealth. He's just spending his family's money. 515 00:27:49,320 --> 00:27:51,320 Speaker 1: I mean, you cannot make this up. 516 00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:55,320 Speaker 2: And Michelle Obama made some comment like, Kamala Harris will 517 00:27:55,359 --> 00:27:59,760 Speaker 2: never know what it's like to fail upward and move forward. 518 00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:05,879 Speaker 2: I'm like, wait, what her entire career, she's the vice 519 00:28:05,920 --> 00:28:08,440 Speaker 2: president and it didn't do a thing in the sense 520 00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:11,280 Speaker 2: she could be the president of United States. All she's 521 00:28:11,320 --> 00:28:14,679 Speaker 2: done is fail and moved up. What are you talking about. 522 00:28:15,040 --> 00:28:16,159 Speaker 1: He's just got a vote. 523 00:28:16,560 --> 00:28:20,879 Speaker 2: No, right, she didn't win the nomination. They ripped it 524 00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:23,960 Speaker 2: away from Joe Biden pushed her into that position. She 525 00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:26,120 Speaker 2: didn't get a vote when she ran in twenty nineteen. 526 00:28:26,440 --> 00:28:29,520 Speaker 2: She's failed as vice president. She's now the nominee for 527 00:28:29,560 --> 00:28:33,080 Speaker 2: president with no votes. Of course, she fails forward. What 528 00:28:33,119 --> 00:28:36,359 Speaker 2: are you talking about? And you notice to talk about 529 00:28:36,359 --> 00:28:41,400 Speaker 2: that money. Democrats leave office and make a ton of money. Okay, 530 00:28:42,600 --> 00:28:45,960 Speaker 2: I'd love to have the stock tip knowledge of Nancy Pelosi. 531 00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:50,440 Speaker 2: For example, Trump lost money after he got out of 532 00:28:50,960 --> 00:28:53,480 Speaker 2: political life. He made his money before then got in. 533 00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:57,000 Speaker 2: It's the opposite of Democrats. They use it to make money, 534 00:28:57,240 --> 00:28:59,480 Speaker 2: to build their own name, to get those donors to 535 00:28:59,560 --> 00:29:02,560 Speaker 2: fork o cash for things they want. And hey, fine, whatever, 536 00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:05,880 Speaker 2: more power to you, but don't mock and deride people 537 00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:09,080 Speaker 2: out there in America trying to make ends meet. And 538 00:29:09,400 --> 00:29:11,720 Speaker 2: your only solution is just give them more cash and 539 00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:14,200 Speaker 2: give them more money, because you know, as you said, 540 00:29:14,200 --> 00:29:17,920 Speaker 2: they've lived on the government dime their entire life. They 541 00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:20,360 Speaker 2: don't know the hardships that so many out there in 542 00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:25,040 Speaker 2: this world face. And by the way, Trump absolutely was 543 00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:28,200 Speaker 2: wealthy young, he was a billionaire. He has used that 544 00:29:28,360 --> 00:29:33,640 Speaker 2: money to not just employ hundreds of thousands of people, 545 00:29:34,520 --> 00:29:39,360 Speaker 2: but he takes care of so many folks out there. 546 00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:42,280 Speaker 2: You'll never hear about him paying off their mortgage. You'll 547 00:29:42,320 --> 00:29:44,760 Speaker 2: never hear about them giving them a car or a 548 00:29:44,880 --> 00:29:48,480 Speaker 2: check to make ends meet. That's who he is because 549 00:29:48,640 --> 00:29:51,880 Speaker 2: he cares about the average American. That's the difference. 550 00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:56,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely, So I will leave it on this because 551 00:29:56,320 --> 00:29:59,160 Speaker 1: I think that the overwhelming theme that I've seen from 552 00:29:59,280 --> 00:30:03,680 Speaker 1: Democrats is You're not going to be able to make 553 00:30:03,720 --> 00:30:06,959 Speaker 1: it without us. There is no chance. There is no 554 00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:09,920 Speaker 1: hope in this country because you will always be held back. 555 00:30:09,960 --> 00:30:12,640 Speaker 1: And I will remember when I was running, I had 556 00:30:12,760 --> 00:30:16,160 Speaker 1: a teacher from the one of our Detroit high schools 557 00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:17,680 Speaker 1: call me. He said, I won't go on the record 558 00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:20,160 Speaker 1: and for this, but I will tell you that we 559 00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:22,600 Speaker 1: tell kids every day there's no hope, that you're being 560 00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:25,640 Speaker 1: held back by other people in this world. There's no hope, 561 00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:28,240 Speaker 1: he said, So why would they come to school every 562 00:30:28,280 --> 00:30:30,680 Speaker 1: day and try to learn because we're teaching them there's 563 00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:33,800 Speaker 1: no hope. I think the opposite is true of Republicans. 564 00:30:34,040 --> 00:30:35,920 Speaker 1: You can have it all. We want you to have 565 00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:38,400 Speaker 1: it all. We want you to have opportunity. If you 566 00:30:38,520 --> 00:30:40,920 Speaker 1: want it, it's there for the taking, but you've got 567 00:30:40,960 --> 00:30:43,600 Speaker 1: to want it. It's not just going to happen for you. 568 00:30:43,600 --> 00:30:46,200 Speaker 1: You've got to want it. So as we go into 569 00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:48,960 Speaker 1: these final days, as early voting is about to start, 570 00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:51,160 Speaker 1: and I think people are nervous. They're like, man, what 571 00:30:51,720 --> 00:30:56,560 Speaker 1: is going to happen. How does Trump overcome this last 572 00:30:56,600 --> 00:31:01,120 Speaker 1: minute switch arough and a candidate who's been built up 573 00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:04,320 Speaker 1: as a celebrity that nobody actually has any idea what's 574 00:31:04,360 --> 00:31:05,440 Speaker 1: actually going to happen with her. 575 00:31:06,680 --> 00:31:11,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's interesting because so many people are concerned about, 576 00:31:12,040 --> 00:31:15,680 Speaker 2: you know, the election, and you know it better than most. 577 00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:21,320 Speaker 2: But there have been countless examples of irregularities, illegalities, anomalies, fraud, 578 00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:24,720 Speaker 2: all that kind of stuff, and the lefl say didn't happen, 579 00:31:24,840 --> 00:31:26,800 Speaker 2: but they're the ones who've complained about it for the 580 00:31:26,880 --> 00:31:31,680 Speaker 2: last twenty years. I mean, my goodness, the Terry mccaulliffe 581 00:31:31,760 --> 00:31:34,120 Speaker 2: just ran for governor again in Virginians that I wish 582 00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:36,760 Speaker 2: they'd count all the votes in Florida in two thousand, 583 00:31:37,160 --> 00:31:39,239 Speaker 2: he's still talking about it. Hillary Clinton went out there 584 00:31:39,280 --> 00:31:42,440 Speaker 2: and called Donald Trump illegitimate, as did Karine, Jean Pierre 585 00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:45,959 Speaker 2: and so many others on the Democrat side. But I 586 00:31:46,080 --> 00:31:48,400 Speaker 2: think it's a lot better now than it was then 587 00:31:48,480 --> 00:31:50,640 Speaker 2: because a lot of our folks are actually paying attention. 588 00:31:50,760 --> 00:31:52,200 Speaker 2: You like, if you're not at the table, you're on 589 00:31:52,240 --> 00:31:54,440 Speaker 2: the menu, as I like to say, And so a 590 00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:56,560 Speaker 2: lot of folks are training to be poll watchers and 591 00:31:56,560 --> 00:31:58,440 Speaker 2: poll workers, so they can be in the rooms when 592 00:31:58,440 --> 00:32:01,360 Speaker 2: these decisions are made, when these votes are tallied, and 593 00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:04,120 Speaker 2: you can flag things for people. We're now more equipped 594 00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:06,560 Speaker 2: and armed. And I always find it interesting it's the 595 00:32:06,680 --> 00:32:10,320 Speaker 2: left that says, hey, when we put dropboxes out in communities, 596 00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:12,080 Speaker 2: they don't need to be monitored. Don't worry about it. 597 00:32:12,120 --> 00:32:14,200 Speaker 2: No cameras, no people, We don't want you to prove 598 00:32:14,200 --> 00:32:15,800 Speaker 2: you are who you say you are with a photo ID. 599 00:32:16,040 --> 00:32:18,480 Speaker 2: Don't worry about just vote. Illegals go away. No, it 600 00:32:18,520 --> 00:32:20,800 Speaker 2: doesn't happen, but we'll let them vote because we've automatically 601 00:32:20,880 --> 00:32:22,880 Speaker 2: registered in the vote in states and they have a license, 602 00:32:22,920 --> 00:32:25,840 Speaker 2: so whatever. They don't want those safeguards in place to 603 00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:28,440 Speaker 2: protect legal votes and legal voters, And that's always very 604 00:32:28,480 --> 00:32:30,840 Speaker 2: telling to me. But we're better off than we were 605 00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:33,200 Speaker 2: this time than last. But the elections always come down 606 00:32:33,240 --> 00:32:35,680 Speaker 2: to blocking and tackling. What you do on the ground 607 00:32:35,680 --> 00:32:38,680 Speaker 2: to get out those votes turn them out higher than 608 00:32:38,720 --> 00:32:40,840 Speaker 2: ever before. So that's what it's going to come down to. 609 00:32:40,880 --> 00:32:42,400 Speaker 2: And I think if we've got a good ground game, 610 00:32:43,440 --> 00:32:45,520 Speaker 2: we're gonna be We're gonna be pretty happy in November. 611 00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:47,600 Speaker 1: Good well, I think we have a good ground game, 612 00:32:47,640 --> 00:32:49,160 Speaker 1: and I think a lot of people are starting to 613 00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:51,600 Speaker 1: see who she really is. So I think we just 614 00:32:51,600 --> 00:32:54,280 Speaker 1: just we got to get out there, keep talking. That's right. 615 00:32:54,320 --> 00:32:55,920 Speaker 2: You got a good product to sell, they don't. 616 00:32:56,480 --> 00:32:59,160 Speaker 1: That's right. Absolutely.
