1 00:00:00,640 --> 00:00:03,519 Speaker 1: On this episode of News Tour. That's what he keeps 2 00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:06,040 Speaker 1: trying to rile everything up. He doesn't want to calm 3 00:00:06,080 --> 00:00:08,879 Speaker 1: things down. What's he do? He just pours gasoline in 4 00:00:08,920 --> 00:00:11,920 Speaker 1: the fire. Somebody's got to do something about Antifa and 5 00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:14,520 Speaker 1: the left, because this is not a right wing problem. 6 00:00:14,880 --> 00:00:18,720 Speaker 1: This is a left I direct. This is let white 7 00:00:18,760 --> 00:00:22,080 Speaker 1: supremacist Antifa is an idea and not an organism as 8 00:00:22,120 --> 00:00:27,360 Speaker 1: you got it, not polition. We're done, sir, the vote 9 00:00:27,400 --> 00:00:30,080 Speaker 1: now go to fact. They sure you in fact let 10 00:00:30,160 --> 00:00:32,960 Speaker 1: people know he isn't. Senator, I'm not going to answer 11 00:00:32,960 --> 00:00:39,840 Speaker 1: the question. Answer that because the question left you shot. Listen, 12 00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:42,519 Speaker 1: who is on your list? Joe? Your different approachist has 13 00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:45,760 Speaker 1: even affected the way that you have campaign. President Trump, 14 00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:49,320 Speaker 1: you're holding large rallies. Vice President Biden, you are holding 15 00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:52,920 Speaker 1: much smaller events with nobody will show up. People would 16 00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:56,720 Speaker 1: nobody shows up to his al Right, a lot of 17 00:00:56,760 --> 00:00:59,520 Speaker 1: people die and a lot more gonna die unless he 18 00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:02,240 Speaker 1: gets a lot smarter, a lot So, as the President, 19 00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:05,440 Speaker 1: did you use the words smart? So you said you 20 00:01:05,520 --> 00:01:07,880 Speaker 1: went to Delaware State, but you forgot the name of 21 00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:11,240 Speaker 1: your college. You didn't go to Delaware State. You graduated 22 00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:14,399 Speaker 1: either the lowest or almost the lowest in your class. 23 00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:16,800 Speaker 1: Don't ever use the words smart with me. Don't ever 24 00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:19,039 Speaker 1: use that word Oh, give me here, because you know what, 25 00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:26,880 Speaker 1: there's nothing smart about you, Joe. Like many Americans, my 26 00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:30,000 Speaker 1: reaction to the presidential debate last night was one of 27 00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:33,560 Speaker 1: surprise and frustration. I heard from any of you that 28 00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:36,560 Speaker 1: the vitriol between the two candidates and the lack of 29 00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:40,360 Speaker 1: control by moderator Chris Wallace made many of you turn 30 00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:43,839 Speaker 1: off your TVs rather than bear witness to the lack 31 00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:48,080 Speaker 1: of decorum and talking over one another. It's an unfortunate 32 00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:52,960 Speaker 1: start to our countdown the twenty twenty presidential election. The 33 00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:57,520 Speaker 1: American people deserve better. Hopefully the candidates will receive the 34 00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:00,480 Speaker 1: message loud and clear, but they both need to do 35 00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:04,000 Speaker 1: better next time to address the important issues that face 36 00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:07,760 Speaker 1: our country. The next presidential debates will be on October 37 00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:12,080 Speaker 1: fifteenth on October twenty second, with the vice presidential debate 38 00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:16,120 Speaker 1: on October seventh. I was fortunate today to have an 39 00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:18,640 Speaker 1: opportunity to speak to members of my Inner Circle club 40 00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:22,880 Speaker 1: by video conference this morning and share both my thoughts 41 00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:25,919 Speaker 1: on the debate and also here what they had to say. 42 00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:41,520 Speaker 1: The podcast today is part of our conversation. Now, I'm 43 00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:45,119 Speaker 1: gonna talk briefly and candidly about last night. I think 44 00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:49,399 Speaker 1: that it may be the worst presidential debate in American history, 45 00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:52,560 Speaker 1: which only starts, of course, with John F. Kennedy and 46 00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:55,760 Speaker 1: Richard Nixon in nineteen sixty, so it's a sixty year 47 00:02:55,800 --> 00:03:00,680 Speaker 1: old tradition. None of the three participants covered themselves with glory. 48 00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:06,840 Speaker 1: I think that the country is facing huge challenges, the 49 00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:11,240 Speaker 1: challenge of COVID, the challenge of lockdown, the challenge of 50 00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:14,840 Speaker 1: the economy, the challenge of a huge debt overhang for 51 00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:18,720 Speaker 1: the future, the challenge of an education system that doesn't work, 52 00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:25,079 Speaker 1: the rising challenge from China. I just think there are 53 00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:29,959 Speaker 1: so many things that we should be having a serious 54 00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:35,000 Speaker 1: conversation about. And I thought none of the three participants, 55 00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:41,800 Speaker 1: neither President Trump, Vice President Biden, nor Chris Wallace, really 56 00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:45,720 Speaker 1: rose to the occasion. And it was always, frankly, it 57 00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:49,240 Speaker 1: degenerated into something that made me pretty uncomfortable and made 58 00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:53,440 Speaker 1: almost everybody I've talked to pretty uncomfortable. As most of 59 00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:55,800 Speaker 1: you know, I'm very pro Trump, and I think that 60 00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:58,760 Speaker 1: Biden's election will be a disaster. But I think I 61 00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:02,600 Speaker 1: have an obligation to speak as an American citizen, and 62 00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:05,760 Speaker 1: this just wasn't good enough. And I hope that the 63 00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:10,040 Speaker 1: President will really take a big step back and we'll 64 00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:14,600 Speaker 1: rethink how he approached this and maybe fundamentally rethink what 65 00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:17,000 Speaker 1: he does and what the vice president does. We have 66 00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:20,520 Speaker 1: our vice presidential debate coming up in just a few days, 67 00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:24,200 Speaker 1: and I hope that Vice President Pence takes that as 68 00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:28,400 Speaker 1: an opportunity to show all of us what a serious, 69 00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:35,000 Speaker 1: calm issue oriented positive debate can be. Like. You can 70 00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:38,440 Speaker 1: have a serious discussion about the degree to which Biden 71 00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:41,960 Speaker 1: doesn't understand Antifa, for example. You can have a serious 72 00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:46,160 Speaker 1: discussion about condemning white nationalism. Where the President got off 73 00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:49,520 Speaker 1: onto repeating some stuff that wasn't going to work with 74 00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:52,760 Speaker 1: the news media. He just gave them a huge opening 75 00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:56,200 Speaker 1: to hammer on him for he'll do now for three 76 00:04:56,320 --> 00:05:00,320 Speaker 1: or four days. All of these things are predictable, All 77 00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:03,960 Speaker 1: these things are solvable. We've allowed our political process to 78 00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:07,760 Speaker 1: get done into a combination of sort of gotcha and 79 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:12,799 Speaker 1: petty trivia, and yet the country's faced with the largest 80 00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:17,680 Speaker 1: range of challenges, from rethinking healthcare, to rethinking education to 81 00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:23,320 Speaker 1: rebuilding infrastructure, to fundamentally overhauling the great bureaucracies that have 82 00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:28,680 Speaker 1: become so rigid and so inefficient, to thinking through how 83 00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:30,920 Speaker 1: we're going to deal with the world in which we're 84 00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:33,200 Speaker 1: going to solve many of the problems of aging. We're 85 00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:35,320 Speaker 1: going to have an amazing number of Americans, the next 86 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:38,359 Speaker 1: generation moving to be over a hundred. Well, we're not 87 00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:40,960 Speaker 1: prepared to deal with any of that. And this kind 88 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:45,320 Speaker 1: of debate that is narrow, petty, nasty, yelling at each other, 89 00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:49,159 Speaker 1: talking over each other, with no real focus on positive things. 90 00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:51,880 Speaker 1: It's a sad commentary and where we are as a 91 00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:55,279 Speaker 1: country right now. And I think that both President Trump 92 00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:58,920 Speaker 1: and Vice President Biden are potentially better than that, and 93 00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:01,120 Speaker 1: I hope that the message they're going to get from 94 00:06:01,160 --> 00:06:05,760 Speaker 1: virtually every American is let's take the last three debates, 95 00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:11,520 Speaker 1: the vice presidential debate, two presidential debates, and let's turn 96 00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:16,840 Speaker 1: them into serious conversations, and let's insist that the moderators 97 00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:22,040 Speaker 1: ask serious adult questions and don't just play gotcha, and 98 00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:24,120 Speaker 1: don't pick up off the latest life from the New 99 00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:27,760 Speaker 1: York Times, the latest smear for some other publication. And 100 00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:30,720 Speaker 1: I did not think it went well for anybody. I 101 00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:32,480 Speaker 1: don't know who will gain out of it. I think 102 00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:36,200 Speaker 1: on style, probably Biden did better. On substance, I think 103 00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:39,720 Speaker 1: Trump did dramatically better. I mean, when Biden can't recognize 104 00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:44,120 Speaker 1: that Antifa is an organization, he's got a problem. And 105 00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:46,000 Speaker 1: I think there a whole series of things like that. 106 00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:51,599 Speaker 1: I originally started out to write about how these kind 107 00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:54,040 Speaker 1: of debates happen and how they occur and what they mean. 108 00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:56,279 Speaker 1: But the more I thought about it, that's not the 109 00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:59,600 Speaker 1: big story. The big story from last night is that 110 00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:02,719 Speaker 1: this was not an acceptable debate for the American people. 111 00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:07,440 Speaker 1: It wasn't the right tone. It's horrifying for foreigners. How 112 00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:10,080 Speaker 1: can you rely on the most powerful nation of the 113 00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:14,000 Speaker 1: world when this ninety minute spectacle is how they're picking 114 00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:17,239 Speaker 1: their leaders. I'm going to be very blunt. Our leaders 115 00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:21,480 Speaker 1: owe us a more honest and more adult conversation. At 116 00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:23,800 Speaker 1: least That's where I'm coming from. And I'll look forward 117 00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:26,400 Speaker 1: to your questions in your comments, and maybe you can 118 00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:28,800 Speaker 1: help educate me, or if you think I'm way off, 119 00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:35,720 Speaker 1: maybe you can tell me why I'm way off. Let's 120 00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:41,600 Speaker 1: take some questions when Crawford from California after last night's debate. 121 00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:45,679 Speaker 1: How would you prep President Trump and Vice President Pence 122 00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:49,440 Speaker 1: for their upcoming debates? What should the president do differently? 123 00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:53,640 Speaker 1: They should talk to the American people, not to the moderator, 124 00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:57,920 Speaker 1: and not to their opponent. They should talk about big solutions, 125 00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:01,400 Speaker 1: big ideas, and they should system staying at that level. 126 00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:03,840 Speaker 1: And if their opponent wants to get down in the mud, 127 00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:07,240 Speaker 1: has pat them on the head. This isn't twenty sixteen. 128 00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:10,440 Speaker 1: Part of what has got Trump a little bit off 129 00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:14,560 Speaker 1: track is in twenty sixteen, he was an outsider, he 130 00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:17,360 Speaker 1: was a newcomer. He was in a race with somebody 131 00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:21,880 Speaker 1: who was deeply disliked, and it was a brutal slugging match. 132 00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:27,320 Speaker 1: We're not there. The country's in much deeper trouble. People 133 00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:31,160 Speaker 1: feel they're in deeper trouble. People are much more anxiety written. 134 00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:35,040 Speaker 1: They want reassurance. They want a sense that we have 135 00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:38,200 Speaker 1: leaders who know what they're doing and that will share 136 00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:40,679 Speaker 1: with us where we're going. We want to go on 137 00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:43,480 Speaker 1: this journey together. That's what a free society is all about. 138 00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:47,400 Speaker 1: And this really does concern me. I'm very concerned about 139 00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:51,520 Speaker 1: where we are right now. In a circle, member Keith guess, 140 00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:55,360 Speaker 1: would there be value in having each candidate give opening 141 00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:59,920 Speaker 1: and closing statements in which anything can be discussed. Look, 142 00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:03,440 Speaker 1: I am very much opposed to the news media defined 143 00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:08,040 Speaker 1: and news media dominated debate system that has evolved. I 144 00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:10,040 Speaker 1: think it puts way too much power in the hands 145 00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:12,800 Speaker 1: of the reporters. They're not running for office, they're not 146 00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:16,080 Speaker 1: going to be president, and they have no particular claim 147 00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:20,080 Speaker 1: to be the people who interrogate our potential leaders. So 148 00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:23,720 Speaker 1: I'd much prefer to have an opening and closing that 149 00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:26,880 Speaker 1: were totally controlled by the candidates, And frankly, I'd like 150 00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:29,960 Speaker 1: to see the candidates have a dialogue more than a debate, 151 00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:33,840 Speaker 1: have a conversation rather than yelling at each other. Larry 152 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:36,719 Speaker 1: wants to know if you think President Trump is cultural 153 00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:40,679 Speaker 1: on how to best debate on TV. I think President 154 00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:44,480 Speaker 1: Trump's very smart. He had very smart people like Chris 155 00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:47,400 Speaker 1: Christie coaching him, so it's not that they didn't do coaching, 156 00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:51,680 Speaker 1: but I think they went in there and misunderstood totally 157 00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:57,720 Speaker 1: both where the country is and what it would feel 158 00:09:57,800 --> 00:10:02,240 Speaker 1: like to engage in that kind of combat. I do think, 159 00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:05,280 Speaker 1: by the way, that when you have an essentially liberal 160 00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:09,800 Speaker 1: commentator asking questions, if you're the Conservative candidate. You have 161 00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:11,559 Speaker 1: to go in recognizing it's going to be a two 162 00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:14,160 Speaker 1: to one against you, and that you have an obligation 163 00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:21,120 Speaker 1: to reach beyond where we are and not ever allow 164 00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:24,800 Speaker 1: the newsperson to define the debate. So I think that's 165 00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:28,800 Speaker 1: almost guarantees a certain level of conflict. But that's why, frankly, 166 00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:31,040 Speaker 1: I'd like to see them find a totally different way 167 00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:33,760 Speaker 1: of doing these things. I think the Whole Debate Commission 168 00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:36,440 Speaker 1: is a bunch of self important people coming out of 169 00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:40,400 Speaker 1: the nineteen seventies. I dislike the Commission deeply. I think 170 00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:44,000 Speaker 1: the way they structure things is wrong, and I'd almost 171 00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:48,080 Speaker 1: rather have random questions coming from the American people, which 172 00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:50,760 Speaker 1: you could certainly do in the modern age, rather than 173 00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:55,960 Speaker 1: from some reporter. Nancy asked what Senate races are too 174 00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:58,760 Speaker 1: close to call? Where are the real battlegrounds going on? 175 00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:02,040 Speaker 1: Lookin bunch of very exciting races on both sides. I 176 00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:06,560 Speaker 1: think the race in Michigan, where Jones is running as 177 00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:10,360 Speaker 1: a Republican has a superb chance to win. I think 178 00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:14,360 Speaker 1: the race in Maine where Susan Collins is in the 179 00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:16,920 Speaker 1: fight of her life, but she has a long track 180 00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:20,400 Speaker 1: record as an independent thinker that really does kind of 181 00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:24,840 Speaker 1: fit Maine. Frankly, Colorado is a challenge. One of our 182 00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:28,360 Speaker 1: best candidates is the Senator Corey Gardner, but he's got 183 00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:32,040 Speaker 1: a real tough race because Colorado has gradually grown much 184 00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:36,520 Speaker 1: more Democrat. We have a very good candidate in New 185 00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:39,800 Speaker 1: Mexico who was the weatherman down there, and he may 186 00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:42,600 Speaker 1: well pull off a real upset. I look around the country, 187 00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:44,920 Speaker 1: they're a bunch of these places. Iowa may be the 188 00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:47,360 Speaker 1: biggest fight of all. It's very interesting because I think 189 00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:50,400 Speaker 1: Joni Ernst is a great senator, a great candidate, but 190 00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:53,880 Speaker 1: she's in a real fight, and the amount of money 191 00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:59,720 Speaker 1: the Democrats support into Iowa because it's the presidency, it's 192 00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:02,880 Speaker 1: a Tennessee and I think there are either three or 193 00:12:02,880 --> 00:12:05,480 Speaker 1: four House seats that are up where we could sweep 194 00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:08,000 Speaker 1: the state. And my friends and I will tell me 195 00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:10,280 Speaker 1: that they think we're very likely to sweep the state. 196 00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:13,520 Speaker 1: So those are some pretty good examples of very close 197 00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:16,040 Speaker 1: races that are going to be exciting to watch on 198 00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:19,760 Speaker 1: election night. Sherry from Georgia has a great question, is 199 00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:24,200 Speaker 1: a concession required by the losing nominee if the outcome 200 00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:27,040 Speaker 1: is so close and no one wants to concede. Do 201 00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:29,000 Speaker 1: we not have a winner and have to wait till 202 00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:33,720 Speaker 1: someone gives up? No concessions not required. It doesn't really 203 00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:37,960 Speaker 1: matter whether you concede. What matters is how many electors 204 00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:43,040 Speaker 1: get picked, and if you have two hundred and seventy electors, 205 00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:47,400 Speaker 1: you win. It's that straightforward. The real question is, given 206 00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:51,800 Speaker 1: all the things the Democrats are doing to change what's 207 00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:56,000 Speaker 1: going on, they're talking now, for example, about allowing ballots 208 00:12:56,040 --> 00:12:59,160 Speaker 1: to come in nine days after the election, Well, then 209 00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:00,480 Speaker 1: figure out how long it's going to think, then to 210 00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:03,200 Speaker 1: count and verify them. So you could be talking about 211 00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:07,520 Speaker 1: not knowing who has carried a particular state until the 212 00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:11,200 Speaker 1: beginning of December. I mean, we're drifting towards a real nightmare. 213 00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:15,400 Speaker 1: I don't collect various news stories and state after state 214 00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:18,760 Speaker 1: where people are getting ballots they didn't ask for. Some 215 00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:21,320 Speaker 1: people are getting two ballots. The whole thing is going 216 00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:26,199 Speaker 1: to be the messiest election process in American history is 217 00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:29,360 Speaker 1: coming right at us in November. To follow up on that, 218 00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:33,200 Speaker 1: Larne Bass, So what happens if the election isn't decided 219 00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:36,679 Speaker 1: on November third, what are the steps that happen after that? Well? 220 00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:38,560 Speaker 1: I think there are three phases. First of all, you 221 00:13:38,600 --> 00:13:41,559 Speaker 1: have devout count on November third. In the days that 222 00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:45,840 Speaker 1: follow it, we just did a terrific podcast with Ted Cruz, 223 00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:48,679 Speaker 1: who has a new book out. And Cruz was on 224 00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:52,719 Speaker 1: the legal team in Florida in two thousand in the 225 00:13:52,720 --> 00:13:57,079 Speaker 1: Gore versus Bush campaign. He really lived through it. It 226 00:13:57,280 --> 00:14:01,319 Speaker 1: was thirty five days between the election and the Supreme 227 00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:04,400 Speaker 1: Court finally saying that Bush had won. One step is 228 00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:07,320 Speaker 1: to simply upstraight out of lawsuits. I am told that 229 00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:11,680 Speaker 1: in Philadelphia alone, the Democrats have filed twenty four lawsuits 230 00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:15,040 Speaker 1: as placeholders. I'm not a lawyer, but I'm told by 231 00:14:15,120 --> 00:14:16,920 Speaker 1: lawyers what that means is you can then go back 232 00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:19,760 Speaker 1: in and file a real lawsuit for that placeholder, and 233 00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:22,320 Speaker 1: it puts you higher up on the docket, and therefore 234 00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:24,680 Speaker 1: you're more likely to be able to pick a judge 235 00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:26,760 Speaker 1: you want. And so that could be a whole mess. 236 00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:29,120 Speaker 1: You see a lot of states tied up in court. 237 00:14:29,760 --> 00:14:33,480 Speaker 1: You then could see real contests about who actually won it. 238 00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:35,840 Speaker 1: You have to go back and ever recount. I mean, 239 00:14:35,880 --> 00:14:40,000 Speaker 1: imagine trying to recount a big state like California, and 240 00:14:40,040 --> 00:14:44,320 Speaker 1: then you have the question of are the enough electors 241 00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:48,200 Speaker 1: for somebody to get two hundred and seventy electoral laws. 242 00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:52,480 Speaker 1: If that doesn't happen, then you would go to the 243 00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:56,760 Speaker 1: House of Representatives, which is an interestingly mixed bag because 244 00:14:57,640 --> 00:15:02,240 Speaker 1: in a presidential vote, state counts as one. So California, 245 00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:05,680 Speaker 1: which is huge, counts as one, and Wyoming, which is tiny, 246 00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:09,440 Speaker 1: counts as one. The Republicans actually have more states than 247 00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:12,080 Speaker 1: the Democrats. But a good friend of mine, Bill Pets, 248 00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:15,560 Speaker 1: who used to be the Republican parliamentarian for Bob Michael, 249 00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:20,280 Speaker 1: has pointed out that they could simply gin up some 250 00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:25,840 Speaker 1: election challenges and refuse to seat four or five Republican 251 00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:30,680 Speaker 1: members and therefore give the Democrats a temporary majority in 252 00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:45,640 Speaker 1: the House, and they could then pick the president. Hi, 253 00:15:45,800 --> 00:15:48,200 Speaker 1: this is new. I want to invite you to sign 254 00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:51,880 Speaker 1: up for a yearly subscription to my Inner Circle membership Court. 255 00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:54,680 Speaker 1: We're in a critical time in our history, with the 256 00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:57,120 Speaker 1: outcome of the next election will set us in a 257 00:15:57,200 --> 00:16:01,120 Speaker 1: course of two very different American features.

Are 272 00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:04,800 Speaker 1: you willing tonight to condemn white supremacies and militia groups 273 00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:08,679 Speaker 1: and to say that they need to stand down and 274 00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:11,440 Speaker 1: not add to the violence and a number of these 275 00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:14,280 Speaker 1: cities as we saw in Kenosha and as we've seen 276 00:17:14,320 --> 00:17:16,639 Speaker 1: in Portland. I'm willing to do anything. I want to 277 00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:19,040 Speaker 1: see peace and do it, sir, do it? Say it? 278 00:17:19,320 --> 00:17:20,760 Speaker 1: You want to call him? What do you want to 279 00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:22,520 Speaker 1: call him? Give me a name, give me a sum 280 00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:33,639 Speaker 1: and I like to stand back and stand by. Kathy 281 00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:36,639 Speaker 1: wants to know what your opinion is of white Trump 282 00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:41,399 Speaker 1: avoided the question to denounce white supremacy groups. I just 283 00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:44,600 Speaker 1: thought it was done for some reason. Trump couldn't bring 284 00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:47,719 Speaker 1: himself to just say I denounced this group. He did 285 00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:51,120 Speaker 1: denounce the Ku Klux Klan, and he has certainly denounced 286 00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:55,560 Speaker 1: white racists. That was probably his biggest misstep because it 287 00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:57,840 Speaker 1: gave the left something easy to hang on to. No, 288 00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:00,960 Speaker 1: there is no evidence if you look at his appointees, 289 00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:03,520 Speaker 1: if you look at the people he works with, if 290 00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:05,520 Speaker 1: you look at the amount of energy he's putting into 291 00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:11,119 Speaker 1: the historically black colleges and universities. Certainly Trump is deeply 292 00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:14,960 Speaker 1: committed to an integrated United States. But I do think 293 00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:18,040 Speaker 1: that by not just being that blunt and that direct, 294 00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:21,240 Speaker 1: he set himself up for a little more pain, a 295 00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:24,679 Speaker 1: little more scarring up than he needed. Matt and Reny 296 00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:28,920 Speaker 1: similar questions. Given all the news of the last couple 297 00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:33,080 Speaker 1: of days on the mail in ballot fraud, if you 298 00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:39,040 Speaker 1: are President Trump, how would you position teams nationwide, statewide, 299 00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:43,320 Speaker 1: countywide to prevent this great potential for voting fraud? Is 300 00:18:43,359 --> 00:18:46,680 Speaker 1: there anything he should be doing or thinking about? Well, 301 00:18:46,720 --> 00:18:49,960 Speaker 1: I think the Republican National Committee has a huge pole 302 00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:53,200 Speaker 1: watching program underway, and anybody listeners who wants to get 303 00:18:53,200 --> 00:18:55,960 Speaker 1: involved should check to see if they need pole watchers 304 00:18:55,960 --> 00:19:00,320 Speaker 1: in their community. I think the Republican lawyers have literally 305 00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:04,040 Speaker 1: hundreds and hundreds of lawyers lined up, and I think 306 00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:07,800 Speaker 1: the Justice Department, on behalf of getting to an honest election, 307 00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:11,040 Speaker 1: will have people in the field looking at what's going 308 00:19:11,080 --> 00:19:14,280 Speaker 1: on and prepared to rest people if in fact anybody's 309 00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:17,000 Speaker 1: overtly breaking the law. So I think it'll be a 310 00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:19,280 Speaker 1: lot of effort, but we don't know though. When you 311 00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:23,520 Speaker 1: have these deals, like in Nevada, the governor and the 312 00:19:23,560 --> 00:19:27,639 Speaker 1: Democratic legislature have passed a law to send a ballot 313 00:19:27,680 --> 00:19:29,399 Speaker 1: to everybody in the state, whether they ask for it 314 00:19:29,480 --> 00:19:31,840 Speaker 1: or not, and the Post Office has already written them 315 00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:34,800 Speaker 1: a letter and said, if you do that, we know 316 00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:38,359 Speaker 1: there are two hundred thousand people who no longer live 317 00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:41,919 Speaker 1: in Nevada, and so you're going to be asking us 318 00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:44,920 Speaker 1: to send out two hundred thousand ballots, which are then 319 00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:47,679 Speaker 1: going to sit at a apartment house, so they're going 320 00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:49,600 Speaker 1: to sit at a condo, or they're going to sit 321 00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:52,520 Speaker 1: at a nursing home. And then the Culinary Union which 322 00:19:52,560 --> 00:19:55,560 Speaker 1: is the strongest democratic organization of the state. We'll go 323 00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:58,240 Speaker 1: around and pick them up, and you'll have ballot harvesting. 324 00:19:58,640 --> 00:20:00,960 Speaker 1: If the Democrats have their way, there will be no 325 00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:05,080 Speaker 1: signature verification, there'll be no way to prove who voted, 326 00:20:05,440 --> 00:20:07,879 Speaker 1: and there'll be a total mess. And every day that 327 00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:11,800 Speaker 1: goes by, we see more stories from New York, from Pennsylvania, 328 00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:15,360 Speaker 1: from other places indicating how bad this is going to be. 329 00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:19,000 Speaker 1: George is very worried about the election being stolen this year. 330 00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:21,679 Speaker 1: He shared with us he's eighty five and this is 331 00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:25,840 Speaker 1: his seventeenth presidential election. He wants to know how we 332 00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:30,720 Speaker 1: stopped the flow of money into the anarchy groups, especially corporations, 333 00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:35,120 Speaker 1: behind lawlessness and political disorder. Why was an action brought 334 00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:39,359 Speaker 1: against Soros? Well, I think that when you're talking about 335 00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:43,440 Speaker 1: groups like Antifa, which has been designated as a terrorist group, 336 00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:46,200 Speaker 1: there is a provision in federal law that if you're 337 00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:49,159 Speaker 1: donating money to a terrorist group, we can prosecute you, 338 00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:51,280 Speaker 1: And so I would say that there are a number 339 00:20:51,320 --> 00:20:54,159 Speaker 1: of places like that where that's the way we should, 340 00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:57,800 Speaker 1: in fact approach it. I don't know that Black Lives 341 00:20:57,800 --> 00:21:01,960 Speaker 1: Matter as an organization is and quite the same overt 342 00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:05,680 Speaker 1: being outside the law, but certainly some elements of it are. 343 00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:08,440 Speaker 1: And I think that we do have a right as 344 00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:11,320 Speaker 1: a country to protect ourselves from people who want to 345 00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:15,359 Speaker 1: use violence and want to tear down and burn down buildings, etc. 346 00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:19,280 Speaker 1: This is the first year we've really had this scale 347 00:21:19,880 --> 00:21:24,800 Speaker 1: of organized, systematic looting and burning things and violence. We're 348 00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:27,840 Speaker 1: gradually going to respond to it. The average person does 349 00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:31,680 Speaker 1: not want to live in a neighborhood where criminals can 350 00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:34,239 Speaker 1: go around and coerce you and tell you to do 351 00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:36,000 Speaker 1: what they tell you to do, or they'll hurt you. 352 00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:39,760 Speaker 1: So I do think you'll see a continuing consolidation of 353 00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:44,840 Speaker 1: that tim from Nevada as states like California have voting 354 00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:48,960 Speaker 1: laws like ballot harvesting, which Democrats use to their great 355 00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:53,399 Speaker 1: advantage in twenty eighteen. What prevents Republicans from doing the 356 00:21:53,480 --> 00:21:57,719 Speaker 1: same and taking advantage of those laws. Not much, except 357 00:21:57,840 --> 00:22:03,560 Speaker 1: that crons are much more likely to go into a 358 00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:07,560 Speaker 1: nursing home and gather up everybody's ballot and cast it 359 00:22:07,720 --> 00:22:11,280 Speaker 1: for them. Republicans tend to be kind of goody goodies, 360 00:22:11,760 --> 00:22:15,080 Speaker 1: and so they play by much stricter rules, and they 361 00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:17,320 Speaker 1: try to do what the rules call on them to do, 362 00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:20,400 Speaker 1: and a lot of Democrats want power, and if that 363 00:22:20,440 --> 00:22:22,280 Speaker 1: means they have to fudge on the rules, they just 364 00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:25,919 Speaker 1: fudge on the rules. I think it's that straightforward. Steve 365 00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:28,879 Speaker 1: from Washington wants to know why does the report on 366 00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:32,720 Speaker 1: Hunter Biden get so little attention? He read the complete 367 00:22:32,720 --> 00:22:37,679 Speaker 1: report and it was shocking. We've tweeted out the Center 368 00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:40,359 Speaker 1: report on Hunter Biden, and we've also had it, i 369 00:22:40,359 --> 00:22:44,440 Speaker 1: think on our show page at Newts World. It's eighty 370 00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:48,440 Speaker 1: five pages long and it raises questions like why did 371 00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:53,040 Speaker 1: the richest woman in Russia send Hunter Biden a billion 372 00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:56,920 Speaker 1: three hundred million dollars? And you can raise all these 373 00:22:57,000 --> 00:23:00,280 Speaker 1: questions and all that. Joe Biden says as well, I 374 00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:04,560 Speaker 1: really wasn't paying attention or now hundred Biden flew to 375 00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:08,480 Speaker 1: China with his father on Air Force two. He got 376 00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:11,080 Speaker 1: to deal with the Chinese who are going to invest 377 00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:14,399 Speaker 1: a billion, three hundred million dollars which he was going 378 00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:17,120 Speaker 1: to manage. Now, I mean, is there anybody at all 379 00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:20,840 Speaker 1: who believes that if your son or daughter got a billion, 380 00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:25,800 Speaker 1: three hundred million dollars deal with the Chinese, that they 381 00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:28,560 Speaker 1: wouldn't have come home and told you. I think Senator 382 00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:31,480 Speaker 1: Ron Johnson has done a great job of laying it out, 383 00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:33,400 Speaker 1: and I think there's more stuff coming in the next 384 00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:35,200 Speaker 1: week or so. But if you just want to get 385 00:23:35,200 --> 00:23:37,560 Speaker 1: a sense of how bad this is, that's a great 386 00:23:37,600 --> 00:23:49,199 Speaker 1: way to do it. I would have walked off the 387 00:23:49,240 --> 00:23:53,280 Speaker 1: stage at certain times and said, until you can actually 388 00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:56,879 Speaker 1: make sure that we abide by the rules, I'm not 389 00:23:56,880 --> 00:23:58,879 Speaker 1: going to be a part of this charade. That was 390 00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:04,200 Speaker 1: a hot mess, inside a dumpster fire, inside a train wreck. 391 00:24:04,760 --> 00:24:07,600 Speaker 1: That was the worst debate I have ever seen. And 392 00:24:07,880 --> 00:24:11,560 Speaker 1: it wasn't even a debate. It was a disgrace. That 393 00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:14,720 Speaker 1: was a show. That is really the only phrase that 394 00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:20,720 Speaker 1: I can think of to really describe it. High nude. 395 00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:25,320 Speaker 1: I'm your fellow Pennsylvanian and campaign worker here in Georgia 396 00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:28,800 Speaker 1: back in the eighties and nineties. Do you consider that 397 00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:32,920 Speaker 1: the debate moderators should have the capacity to turn off 398 00:24:32,920 --> 00:24:37,480 Speaker 1: the mic or a speaker that interrupts or severely overruns 399 00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:41,320 Speaker 1: has a lot of time. No, because I totally distrust 400 00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:45,240 Speaker 1: the moderators. I think they would use it on conservatives 401 00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:48,400 Speaker 1: and never use it on liberals. I knew it. I 402 00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:51,000 Speaker 1: would like to know whether or not you think that 403 00:24:51,119 --> 00:24:54,880 Speaker 1: the protest or groups like BLM and Antifa actually don't 404 00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:57,440 Speaker 1: want Biden to win because if he did, that would 405 00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:00,320 Speaker 1: take away the reason the protests, because you never notice 406 00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:03,879 Speaker 1: them showing any signs of supporting Biden when they're protesting. 407 00:25:04,040 --> 00:25:07,240 Speaker 1: Thank you. That's a good question. I would say they 408 00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:09,520 Speaker 1: would love to have Biden win because he would be 409 00:25:09,600 --> 00:25:14,000 Speaker 1: so weak that they would dominate. Remember, they're perfectly happy 410 00:25:14,040 --> 00:25:17,639 Speaker 1: to have left wing mayors in Seattle and Portland, and 411 00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:21,200 Speaker 1: left wing district attorneys and a totally insane left wing 412 00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:24,200 Speaker 1: mayor in New York and de Blasio. So I think 413 00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:26,600 Speaker 1: they'd be happy to have Biden because if Biden would 414 00:25:26,640 --> 00:25:30,159 Speaker 1: be so anti police and so pro criminal that it 415 00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:34,480 Speaker 1: will be just four years of people who are dangerous 416 00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:39,200 Speaker 1: dominating the country. All right, The next person that is Mark. Mark, 417 00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:41,879 Speaker 1: if you could unit your microphone and ask your question 418 00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:45,520 Speaker 1: about Speaker Pelosi. One of the things that I'm concerned 419 00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:50,679 Speaker 1: about if this goes to the Congress and the Congress 420 00:25:50,840 --> 00:25:55,800 Speaker 1: ultimately decides who is President of the United States going forward, 421 00:25:56,520 --> 00:26:01,240 Speaker 1: what kind of role, what kind of power Nancy Pelosi 422 00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:06,960 Speaker 1: play in the process. Well, depending on how ruthless they 423 00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:10,639 Speaker 1: want to be if it actually ends up going into 424 00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:12,640 Speaker 1: the House, which is where you would pick the president. 425 00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:16,320 Speaker 1: I could imagine a circumstance where they would deliberately not 426 00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:19,960 Speaker 1: seat Republicans to make sure that they had a majority 427 00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:23,800 Speaker 1: to elect the president. I think that's very possible. Who 428 00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:28,240 Speaker 1: lived through a recount in nineteen eighty five in Indiana 429 00:26:28,400 --> 00:26:34,040 Speaker 1: nine where there were thirty votes outstanding when their candidate 430 00:26:34,080 --> 00:26:37,600 Speaker 1: was up by nine they quit counting and just said, 431 00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:39,199 Speaker 1: we're not going to look at the rest of the ballots. 432 00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:43,720 Speaker 1: We're done. I know that in Minnesota, the only reason 433 00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:47,120 Speaker 1: Franken got in office was after he had lost an 434 00:26:47,119 --> 00:26:52,320 Speaker 1: election night somebody magically found an automobile trunk filled with 435 00:26:52,359 --> 00:26:57,159 Speaker 1: ballots that happened to be heavily for Franken. So I 436 00:26:57,200 --> 00:27:00,000 Speaker 1: think they are desperate to get power back. I think 437 00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:03,440 Speaker 1: they are very afraid of what a Trump's second term 438 00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:07,120 Speaker 1: would be like. And I think that it really is 439 00:27:07,960 --> 00:27:11,720 Speaker 1: a situation where I would certainly not like to see 440 00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:16,520 Speaker 1: us in a House of Representatives dominated by Nancy Pelosi 441 00:27:17,119 --> 00:27:20,439 Speaker 1: making these kinds of life and death decisions about the 442 00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:23,680 Speaker 1: very nature of our government. What do you think of 443 00:27:23,840 --> 00:27:27,520 Speaker 1: Biden's lack of response last night on the question regarding 444 00:27:27,600 --> 00:27:31,600 Speaker 1: packing the Supreme Court. Well, I don't think he wants 445 00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:35,119 Speaker 1: to say it. Look, I think Biden's entire strategy is 446 00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:38,840 Speaker 1: to try to not be controversial, let the news media 447 00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:43,080 Speaker 1: beat up Trump and win as the not Trump. And 448 00:27:43,160 --> 00:27:46,200 Speaker 1: so I think to the degree that he defines anything, 449 00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:49,199 Speaker 1: he makes it easier for Trump to shoot at him. 450 00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:52,040 Speaker 1: So his whole goal is to rope a dope all 451 00:27:52,040 --> 00:27:55,399 Speaker 1: the way to election day and hope that between the 452 00:27:55,400 --> 00:27:59,040 Speaker 1: news media and Trump's personality that there will be a 453 00:27:59,080 --> 00:28:03,280 Speaker 1: majority for buy because he's this nice, pleasant guy who 454 00:28:03,320 --> 00:28:07,080 Speaker 1: doesn't do anything. That's the only strategy I can make 455 00:28:07,119 --> 00:28:11,160 Speaker 1: out of what they're doing. Thank you, Nude just wanted 456 00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:14,760 Speaker 1: to know why the President didn't lay out his healthcare plan. 457 00:28:15,640 --> 00:28:19,760 Speaker 1: I cannot answer that. The White House has a lot 458 00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:22,000 Speaker 1: of good things to do. In fact, Joe Desanis and 459 00:28:22,040 --> 00:28:25,400 Speaker 1: I just published an article on the Trump health plan 460 00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:29,400 Speaker 1: laying out item after item after item that they've done 461 00:28:29,400 --> 00:28:33,080 Speaker 1: that are terrific. And he did refer to it a 462 00:28:33,119 --> 00:28:36,159 Speaker 1: couple times in terms of lowering the cost of drugs 463 00:28:36,160 --> 00:28:40,000 Speaker 1: and other things. Mentioned diabetes at one point, But I 464 00:28:40,040 --> 00:28:42,920 Speaker 1: think it's part of the whole way that they approached 465 00:28:42,920 --> 00:28:45,000 Speaker 1: this debate, which I think just turned out to be wrong. 466 00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:48,680 Speaker 1: But they prepared to come to the debate talk about 467 00:28:48,720 --> 00:28:51,400 Speaker 1: what they had achieved and talk about what they were 468 00:28:51,440 --> 00:28:55,320 Speaker 1: going to achieve, and stayed at that level. The contrast 469 00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:58,400 Speaker 1: between them and Biden would have been devastating. The number 470 00:28:58,440 --> 00:29:00,880 Speaker 1: of people I've talked to who could walk after fifteen 471 00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:03,680 Speaker 1: minutes because it was too painful, Well, that's really bad 472 00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:13,160 Speaker 1: for America.
