Biden Demands "We Gotta Lock Trump Up", plus Obama Wonders why America is Divided & Kamala Campaign Fails · The Ben Ferguson Podcast

0:01
Speaker 1: Welcome.
0:01
Speaker 2: It is verdict with Senator Ted Cruz, Ben Ferguson with
0:04
Speaker 2: you and Mayo Maya is the adrenaline running for many
0:07
Speaker 2: Americans right now because we are less than two weeks
0:10
Speaker 2: away from election day, and in a not surprising plot twist,
0:16
Speaker 2: Senator Joe Biden's coming out going. We just see a
0:19
Speaker 2: lock up Donald Trump, like forging an election, Just lock
0:22
Speaker 2: him up.
0:23
Speaker 3: Well, Joe Biden's mental decline continues, and he's being very
0:26
Speaker 3: candid about his desires. His attempt to indict Trump, to
0:30
Speaker 3: prosecute him and put him in prison. He's tried multiple times,
0:32
Speaker 3: it's failed, and he's continued now just to be very
0:35
Speaker 3: open that the objective is, two weeks before election day,
0:38
Speaker 3: let's put him in jail. Let's prevent the voters from
0:40
Speaker 3: voting for him. You know, we're also going to talk
0:42
Speaker 3: about it. At the same time. Biden is in such trouble.
0:46
Speaker 3: The Democrats are trying to roll out Barack Obama to
0:48
Speaker 3: save Kamala Harris and Barack Obama, well, I've got to
0:52
Speaker 3: say he's utterly clueless. He's bemoaning how to divided and
0:56
Speaker 3: bitter the country's gotten with no sense of his own legacy,
1:00
Speaker 3: no sense of the responsibility he bears in turning the
1:04
Speaker 3: political environment toxic. And part of the reason we're talking
1:09
Speaker 3: about Joe Biden and part of the reason we're talking
1:11
Speaker 3: about Barack Obama is because Kamala Harris, the wheels keep
1:14
Speaker 3: coming off of her campaign. She has decided she wants
1:18
Speaker 3: to campaign in Texas. Not quite sure why she's doing
1:21
Speaker 3: that other than she wants to talk about abortion all
1:24
Speaker 3: the time, because that's the one topic Democrats are willing
1:27
Speaker 3: to talk about. Is that therefore abortion and every circumstance
1:30
Speaker 3: with no limitations. But she also then took a day
1:34
Speaker 3: off for her campaign to get ready, to get ready
1:37
Speaker 3: for what not? The Fox interview. That one went horribly Nope,
1:41
Speaker 3: MSNBC And now even MSNBC has turned on her.
1:44
Speaker 4: We're going to break that down as well.
1:46
Speaker 2: Yeah, when you see MSNBC turning on her, you know
1:49
Speaker 2: something's changed in this race. I got to tell thank
1:52
Speaker 2: you to a lot of you guys. It's amazing how
1:55
Speaker 2: many of you listen to the show and then you
1:58
Speaker 2: listen to what we tell tell you about sponsors and
2:01
Speaker 2: you take action. Patriot Mobile is one of those, and
2:04
Speaker 2: it's incredible to see just how many of you guys
2:06
Speaker 2: have switched your cell phone to the only Christian conservative
2:10
Speaker 2: cell phone provider in the country and you understood what
2:14
Speaker 2: was happening with Big Mobile. Big Mobile takes your money
2:16
Speaker 2: every month and they give it back to liberal causes,
2:19
Speaker 2: hardcore liberal candidates, and extreme organizations, including major donations to
2:25
Speaker 2: organizations that provide abortions on demand. That is exactly why
2:30
Speaker 2: I'm proud to tell you about Patriot Mobile. I'm proud
2:32
Speaker 2: to say I am a client of theirs, and they've
2:34
Speaker 2: been doing this for more than ten years. They started
2:37
Speaker 2: this business because they realize what was going on with
2:40
Speaker 2: Big Mobile, and now they're on the frontline's fighting for
2:44
Speaker 2: you and me and what we believe in. They take
2:47
Speaker 2: a portion of your bill every month and they give
2:50
Speaker 2: it back to organizations that fight for our First and
2:53
Speaker 2: our Second Amendment rights, that stand up for the sanctity
2:56
Speaker 2: of life, and they stand with our military, our first
3:00
Speaker 2: responders and are wounded warrior heroes. So if you're ready
3:04
Speaker 2: to take a stand for your conservative values, well, then
3:07
Speaker 2: put America first.

Speaker 2: offer code Verdict Center. This was one of those moments,
3:53
Speaker 2: and I want to play it so that people can
3:55
Speaker 2: hear it. You may have already seen it on social media,
3:59
Speaker 2: but Joe and came out and he didn't mince words.
4:02
Speaker 2: He made it very clear what he thinks about Donald
4:04
Speaker 2: Trump and where he belongs.
4:06
Speaker 5: He is talking about doing the entire Department of Education.
4:12
Speaker 5: He's talking he means it. This is not a joke.
4:16
Speaker 5: This is the guy who also wants to place every
4:18
Speaker 5: single servant, every single one thinks he has a rated
4:23
Speaker 5: of the Supreme Court ruling on immunity to be able
4:26
Speaker 5: to need be if if it was the case to
4:29
Speaker 5: actually eliminate, physically eliminate, shoot kill someone who is he
4:36
Speaker 5: needs to be a threat to him. I mean, so,
4:40
Speaker 5: I know this sounds bizarre. It sounds like I said
4:42
Speaker 5: this five years ago.
4:44
Speaker 6: You'd locked me up.
4:46
Speaker 5: We gotta lock him up. The msical about him up.
4:54
Speaker 1: Now.
4:54
Speaker 2: I love when he says we got to lock him up,
4:56
Speaker 2: and then he says after I'm assuming people in the
4:59
Speaker 2: back of the room or jump up and down, like,
5:00
Speaker 2: don't say that, man, this is not going to help us.
5:02
Speaker 2: He's like, politically lock them up. That was crazy rambling,
5:07
Speaker 2: even by Joe Biden's standards.
5:09
Speaker 3: Well, yes, and look if you listen to what he
5:12
Speaker 3: was saying, I mean much of that was incoherent rambling.
5:15
Speaker 4: I mean, at one point he.
5:16
Speaker 3: Says, oh, well, well, Trump says he can just murder
5:19
Speaker 3: anyone he wants. No, actually, Trump does not say that.
5:22
Speaker 3: Nobody said that other than deranged Democrats who are trying
5:26
Speaker 3: to see people. The idea that Trump is going to
5:29
Speaker 3: whack his opponents is is bizarre. But you know it's
5:34
Speaker 3: interesting if you listen to Biden's concerns. The first thing
5:38
Speaker 3: he said is he's going to abolish the Department of Education, which,
5:41
Speaker 3: by the way, an overwhelming percentage of Americans agree with
5:46
Speaker 3: abolishing the federal Department of Education. They'd like to see
5:48
Speaker 3: education handled at the state and local level and keep
5:51
Speaker 3: the Feds out of controlling curriculum and out of all
5:54
Speaker 3: the red strings, that red tape and all the strings
5:56
Speaker 3: that come attached.
5:58
Speaker 4: And then.
6:00
Speaker 3: You know, he says, well, and he's going to fire
6:03
Speaker 3: the bureaucrats, and that's really what he gets terrified. Now,
6:07
Speaker 3: we've talked at great length about how the weaponized bureaucracy
6:12
Speaker 3: that started with Barack Obama when he used the federal
6:16
Speaker 3: government to target his political opponents, that those hard partisans
6:20
Speaker 3: burrowed into the bureaucracy. And you better believe one of
6:23
Speaker 3: the most important things in a Trump presidency he is
6:27
Speaker 3: going to be to root out the hardcore partisans who
6:30
Speaker 3: are abusing their power within the bureaucracy. But to Joe Biden,
6:35
Speaker 3: that's terrifying. And then you know the old line that
6:37
Speaker 3: a gaff is when a politician actually tells the truth,
6:39
Speaker 3: where he says, you know, we got to lock him up.
6:43
Speaker 3: You're right, he tries to do some immediate cleanup and
6:45
Speaker 3: say politically lock him up. But listen, as far as
6:48
Speaker 3: I'm concerned, he was telling the truth when he spoke
6:51
Speaker 3: the first time as to what he wants to do,
6:52
Speaker 3: which is why the Biden Harris DOJ has indicted Trump
6:57
Speaker 3: not once but twice.
6:58
Speaker 4: They are trying to lock him up right now.
7:01
Speaker 2: It's also just I think very it's a great reminder
7:06
Speaker 2: less than two weeks from election day, early voting is
7:09
Speaker 2: happening now for Americans that are listening to this show
7:13
Speaker 2: to remember this is what we are up against. This
7:16
Speaker 2: is exactly why you need to go vote. You need
7:19
Speaker 2: to early vote, because if the Democrats have their way,
7:23
Speaker 2: they will lock up Donald Trump, and not just him,
7:26
Speaker 2: I think they'll come after any other conservative that stands
7:29
Speaker 2: in their way, whoever is the next guy in line.
7:33
Speaker 2: They will do whatever they can to harass them and
7:36
Speaker 2: to use law fair to come after them and their
7:40
Speaker 2: family and their friends and try to destroy their lives.
7:43
Speaker 2: Like the days of Democrats and Republicans getting along seem
7:48
Speaker 2: to be over, not because Republicans walked away, but because
7:51
Speaker 2: Democrats said, we're not democrats anymore. We're socialists or communists
7:54
Speaker 2: or Marxists. We don't want to work with you. We
7:57
Speaker 2: believe that you were evil and we want to destroy
7:59
Speaker 2: your lives and put you in jail.
8:02
Speaker 3: Look, as Lord Acton famously said, power corrupts absolute. Power
8:05
Speaker 3: corrupts absolutely. Once they have internalized that they can use
8:10
Speaker 3: government to destroy their enemies, that they're not interested in
8:14
Speaker 3: backing away. And if they can do this to Donald Trump,
8:16
Speaker 3: they can do it to you. They can do it
8:18
Speaker 3: to me, They can do it to anybody they want to.
8:21
Speaker 3: This is about the abuse of power. This is about
8:24
Speaker 3: the arrogance of Biden and Kamala Harris and Chuck Schumer
8:28
Speaker 3: and Nancy Pelosi that they believe that that Look, it's
8:32
Speaker 3: not materially different from Maduro in Venezuela. They want to
8:36
Speaker 3: be in power forever and anyone who opposes them, they
8:39
Speaker 3: will use the government to destroy them. Now, I got
8:42
Speaker 3: to say, the Biden administration spin trying to get out
8:44
Speaker 3: of Biden quite candidly saying what their objective is was
8:48
Speaker 3: really amazing. So Alex Thompson, who's a reporter with Axios,
8:52
Speaker 3: he tweeted out the following, a counterpoint from a current
8:56
Speaker 3: Biden administration official quote, for better or worse, no one
9:01
Speaker 3: is listening to him anymore. That would be Biden, and
9:04
Speaker 3: his words have little power and less reach. It's a
9:08
Speaker 3: blip gone in any meaningful way by midday tomorrow, if
9:12
Speaker 3: it makes it that long. Now that's a current official
9:15
Speaker 3: of theoretically the Biden administration. But understand this ruthless team.
9:19
Speaker 3: They will figuratively shoot you and leave you in the
9:24
Speaker 3: alley if you're no longer politically useful. And so this
9:28
Speaker 3: is the administration. By the way, lest I checked Ben
9:31
Speaker 3: who is currently the commander in chief.
9:34
Speaker 2: It's a guy by the name of Joe Biden, at
9:36
Speaker 2: least on paper, but if you listen to Democrats around him,
9:39
Speaker 2: they're like, dude, this guy has been present for well
9:41
Speaker 2: over a year at least.
9:43
Speaker 3: I mean, it is amazing they're talking point from the administration.
9:47
Speaker 3: No one is listening to him anymore, and his words
9:51
Speaker 3: have little power and less reach. And yet under the constitution,
9:54
Speaker 3: he still has the authority to order our active duty
9:58
Speaker 3: military into harm's way. He still has the authority to
10:00
Speaker 3: launch missiles at anyone he damn near wants to. And and
10:04
Speaker 3: that is a really frightening dynamic which nobody in the
10:07
Speaker 3: media seems to care about. Nobody in the Democrat Party
10:10
Speaker 3: seems to care about. They're just like, let's get to
10:12
Speaker 3: election day and then we'll move out our senile puppet
10:15
Speaker 3: and we'll replace from their perspective, hopefully with our Marxist
10:18
Speaker 3: true believer that that that will implement the very same policies.
10:22
Speaker 2: How desperate, because it does feel like there's a different
10:25
Speaker 2: level of desperation now from the left. I don't know
10:28
Speaker 2: if you're feeling it the way that I am, but
10:30
Speaker 2: I do think.
10:31
Speaker 1: That they're losing, that they know they're too Yeah, this
10:35
Speaker 1: is telling.
10:35
Speaker 2: I think that they're feeling that this election is starting
10:39
Speaker 2: to slip away with their Plan B after their coup
10:42
Speaker 2: on Joe Biden. I actually think there's part of Joe
10:45
Speaker 2: Biden that probably thinks, good, you guys deserve this.
10:48
Speaker 1: You you literally overthrew me.
10:51
Speaker 2: I'm willing to sit here and kind of watch this
10:53
Speaker 2: place burn down because you guys thought you were smarter
10:56
Speaker 2: than me and I would have won.
10:57
Speaker 1: That will be what he says the rest of his life.
10:59
Speaker 3: I have every reason to think Joe Biden is pissed off,
11:03
Speaker 3: and you're exactly right. He is sitting there thinking if
11:06
Speaker 3: I'd been the nominee. I'd be winning and you pushed
11:09
Speaker 3: me out, and now you're going to lose with Kamala
11:11
Speaker 3: and you deserve to.
11:12
Speaker 7: Now.
11:12
Speaker 3: He hasn't quite said that publicly, although you know tomorrow
11:15
Speaker 3: is another day he might say it publicly. Certainly seems
11:18
Speaker 3: to be thinking about it. And it's interesting. Number one,
11:21
Speaker 3: You know, Joe Biden's out there saying things that his
11:24
Speaker 3: own administration is saying pay no attention to. But simultaneously,
11:28
Speaker 3: Barack Obama's out there, and I want you to listen
11:30
Speaker 3: to what Barack Obama just said, because it's really an
11:32
Speaker 3: astonishing thing to come from the lips of Barack Obama.
11:36
Speaker 7: I don't understand how we got so toxic and just
11:41
Speaker 7: so dividen, so bitter, and I get why sometimes people
11:45
Speaker 7: just don't want to pay attention to it. And we
11:47
Speaker 7: all have friends like that, we have family members who're
11:49
Speaker 7: just like a you know, it's all a circus out there.
11:53
Speaker 4: I get that.
11:55
Speaker 2: I mean, really like, come on, man, like, have you
11:58
Speaker 2: heard what you've been saying lately? Have you heard what
12:00
Speaker 2: you've said about Donald Trump? Have you heard what you
12:02
Speaker 2: said about conservatives? Like for him to say it's oh,
12:05
Speaker 2: it's so toxic. Have you seen what the media that
12:07
Speaker 2: you control has been saying and doing in the last
12:10
Speaker 2: I mean even in the last two days. The narrative
12:13
Speaker 2: from the media center has been that that Donald Trump
12:16
Speaker 2: is unhinged and and it's so extreme and is losing
12:20
Speaker 2: his his mind cognitive decline. They're literally using the Joe
12:23
Speaker 2: Biden talking points against Donald Trump now and they're saying,
12:26
Speaker 2: this guy can't be trusted.
12:27
Speaker 1: He's gonna take us into World War three.
12:30
Speaker 3: Well, and by the way, Joe Biden just said that
12:32
Speaker 3: that Trump wants to just murder people randomly, which, mind you,
12:37
Speaker 3: Trump was president four years. He didn't murder people randomly.
12:40
Speaker 3: In fact, it was the one presidency in modern times
12:44
Speaker 3: where he didn't start a war. Everyone else did. And
12:47
Speaker 3: and but yet the Democratic can't acknowledge that, you know,
12:51
Speaker 3: the people that have died under Joe Biden, Kamala Harris,
12:54
Speaker 3: from from the wars that have been started, from the
12:57
Speaker 3: weakness that they've demonstrated, from the their strength thing of
13:00
Speaker 3: our enemies, they can't acknowledge that. So they say, oh,
13:02
Speaker 3: Trump is the one that want to kills people, kill people.
13:04
Speaker 3: But you know, for Obama to say that, it's like
13:08
Speaker 3: he just erases his entire legacy. Let's go back and
13:12
Speaker 3: remember what Obama said back in two thousand and eight
13:15
Speaker 3: when he was talking about Midwestern voters and what he
13:18
Speaker 3: thought about them. Give a listen to what Obama said.
13:20
Speaker 4: Then, people have been beaten.
13:21
Speaker 7: Down soul and they feel full the trained by government.
13:26
Speaker 8: I'm not apply to them that they get better than
13:28
Speaker 8: they cling to gad's or religion or antipathatory people who
13:34
Speaker 8: wann't like that way and a way to explain their frustrations.
13:40
Speaker 2: Those are the famous lines from Barack Obama. Right, they
13:43
Speaker 2: cling to their guns and their religion. And you know
13:46
Speaker 2: these are radicals in other words.
13:49
Speaker 3: Yeah, look, that's how he described half the country, anyone
13:53
Speaker 3: who didn't agree with his left wing vision. He said,
13:56
Speaker 3: you're bitter and you're just clinging to your guns and
14:01
Speaker 3: you're clinging to your religion. You know, there's a contempt
14:04
Speaker 3: of the modern left for people of faith, and it
14:08
Speaker 3: really is striking. You know, you saw at the Kamala
14:14
Speaker 3: Harris rally where people called out Jesus's Lord and she countered, oh,
14:21
Speaker 3: you're at the wrong rally. Yeah, by the way, I'll
14:25
Speaker 3: tell you I was doing a rally. Actually today at
14:29
Speaker 3: someone at the rally called out Jesus's Lord, and I
14:32
Speaker 3: immediately turned and smiled and said, you're at the right rally.
14:37
Speaker 1: I love it. It's sad, but it's true.
14:40
Speaker 2: They're like, if you believe in God, don't come here,
14:42
Speaker 2: You're in the wrong place. And they'll say it out loud.
14:45
Speaker 2: And when it was said, by the way, at that rally,
14:48
Speaker 2: the audience cheered it on and loved it.
14:51
Speaker 4: Well.
14:52
Speaker 3: The left has done such a demonization number one of
14:55
Speaker 3: Donald Trump. I don't think there has been anyone demonized
14:59
Speaker 3: in my mind u n times the way Donald Trump
15:01
Speaker 3: is now. Listen, Trump's rhetoric feeds into it. He takes
15:06
Speaker 3: particular joy and sticking his thumb in the eyes of
15:09
Speaker 3: his opponents, and so that exacerbates it. But it also
15:12
Speaker 3: it drives them back crap crazy. They lose their minds.
15:15
Speaker 3: Like Trump derangement syndrome is a real thing. And you
15:18
Speaker 3: see people. You see Democrats, you see many of my
15:21
Speaker 3: colleagues in the Senate, you see virtually all of the
15:23
Speaker 3: corporate media. You see sadly a handful of Republicans whose
15:28
Speaker 3: brains have just melted. They just hate Trump so much
15:31
Speaker 3: that they can't acknowledge anything good he's done, like they
15:34
Speaker 3: really do. I think they've convinced themselves he's hitler And
15:39
Speaker 3: then like Barack Obama with utter cluelessness, they say, I
15:43
Speaker 3: don't understand how we got so toxic and just so
15:46
Speaker 3: divided and so bitter. And by the way, did I
15:48
Speaker 3: mention to you that Trump is the devil? Like there's
15:51
Speaker 3: such a cognitive dissonance.
15:54
Speaker 2: One of the big problems has come out over the
15:56
Speaker 2: last couple of days is the minority vote is really
16:00
Speaker 2: not running towards Kamala Harris. It seems like they're running
16:04
Speaker 2: away from Kamala Harris. You had over ninety percent of
16:08
Speaker 2: African Americans men that were in favor of Barack Obama
16:12
Speaker 2: when he ran, then it went to eighty seven percent
16:15
Speaker 2: with Joe Biden. That number is now down in the
16:19
Speaker 2: seventies for Kamala Harris. And the same thing is happening
16:25
Speaker 2: with Hispanic voters in this country, many as Hispanic voters
16:29
Speaker 2: that can vote right American citizens. They're angry at the
16:34
Speaker 2: wide open Southern border and the crime that has come
16:37
Speaker 2: into their neighborhoods, and the cost of rent and the
16:39
Speaker 2: cost of housing that's gone up, and the cost of
16:41
Speaker 2: living in general, and that they're having to compete for
16:44
Speaker 2: jobs with the legal immigrants that have flooded this country.
16:47
Speaker 2: And this is one of those little X factors that
16:50
Speaker 2: I've marked for election night, and I want your take
16:53
Speaker 2: on this. I think what could be the most shocking
16:56
Speaker 2: thing we see when we break down the numbers is
17:00
Speaker 2: that there were a significant number of African Americans that
17:02
Speaker 2: voted for Donald Trump over Kamala Harris. Because it's the economy, stupid,
17:07
Speaker 2: not someone's skin color.
17:09
Speaker 3: Look, the classic question for any presidential race is are
17:13
Speaker 3: you better off now than you were four years ago?
17:16
Speaker 3: And for virtually everyone, the answer is no. I'll tell
17:18
Speaker 3: you tonight. I had a woman in McAllen McCallen, Texas,
17:23
Speaker 3: down in the Rio Grande Valley, a nurse come up
17:26
Speaker 3: to me and she had tears in her eyes and
17:29
Speaker 3: she hugged me and she said, every month, I don't
17:33
Speaker 3: know how I'm going to pay the bills. I just
17:36
Speaker 3: I can't pay the basic costs. I just don't know.
17:40
Speaker 3: I don't have the money to survive anymore. And it
17:44
Speaker 3: was the very real pain that she is feeling day
17:49
Speaker 3: after day after day. That's real, and you know, you
17:55
Speaker 3: mentioned the polling that shows seventy percent of African American
17:58
Speaker 3: men are still voting for In some ways, that's remarkable
18:01
Speaker 3: because virtually all of those voters, like virtually every other
18:04
Speaker 3: other American, is much worse off today than they were
18:07
Speaker 3: four years ago. And that really underscores the Democrat party strategy.
18:14
Speaker 3: Don't talk about their record. Don't talk about the last
18:16
Speaker 3: four years. Don't talk about what they've done on the economy.
18:18
Speaker 3: Don't talk about inflation, because all of that is a
18:21
Speaker 3: disaster certainly. Don't talk about the southern border and how
18:23
Speaker 3: they open it up and the chaos that has happened.
18:25
Speaker 3: Don't talk about the crime that a skyrocketed under their leadership.
18:28
Speaker 3: Don't talk about the wars that are proliferated across this globe.
18:33
Speaker 3: Don't talk about how our enemies are stronger. Don't talk
18:36
Speaker 3: about their rabbid anti Semitism on college campuses that have
18:40
Speaker 3: proliferated under their leadership. Don't talk about the fact that
18:42
Speaker 3: they're unwilling to enforce federal law against the university presidents
18:46
Speaker 3: who refuse to protect Jewish students. Don't talk about any
18:49
Speaker 3: of that. Instead, Well, Kamala Harris is this week she's
18:53
Speaker 3: coming to Texas because you know, I guess she doesn't
18:56
Speaker 3: think she has a chance at winning Pennsylvania or Michigan
18:58
Speaker 3: or Wisconsin or any of this wing state. So she's
19:00
Speaker 3: going to come to Texas. I'll tell you right now,
19:02
Speaker 3: Donald Trump's gonna win Texas. But she's coming to Texas. Anyway.
19:05
Speaker 3: Why to do an entire event on abortion, because the
19:08
Speaker 3: Democrat Party has decided the only issue they want to
19:10
Speaker 3: talk about between now an election day is abortion, and
19:13
Speaker 3: they are the party of all abortion, all the time,
19:16
Speaker 3: no limitations, no restrictions. Everyone should should shout your abortion
19:21
Speaker 3: from a rooftop. And I got to say it is
19:23
Speaker 3: a very different party.
19:25
Speaker 4: You know.
19:25
Speaker 3: You think back to when Bill Clinton said that he
19:28
Speaker 3: wanted abortion safe, legal, and rare. There's nothing about Kamala
19:32
Speaker 3: Harris that is saying that she wants it rare. She
19:36
Speaker 3: wants that is the entirety of the Democrat Party is
19:40
Speaker 3: they are about abortion because they can't talk about anything else.
19:44
Speaker 2: Yeah, they really can't, and this is their obsession. Now,
19:46
Speaker 2: I want to talk to you real quick about coffee.
19:49
Speaker 2: And if you love a great cup of coffee every morning,
19:54
Speaker 2: then you've got to try blackout coffee because Blackout Coffee
19:57
Speaker 2: is one hundred percent on me Erica, zero percent woke.
20:02
Speaker 2: Blackout Coffee was started by a group of individuals that
20:06
Speaker 2: were tired of giving their money to the woke coffee companies.
20:10
Speaker 2: And when I said that, you probably thought of a
20:12
Speaker 2: couple brands instantly. They're big, famous brands, and they are
20:15
Speaker 2: hardcore liberal and they give a lot of money to
20:18
Speaker 2: liberal causes. Well, Blackout Coffee changed all of that. It's
20:22
Speaker 2: one hundred percent committed to conservative values as a company,
20:26
Speaker 2: from the sourcing of the beans, the roasting process, customer
20:29
Speaker 2: support and shipping. Now the other thing is you get

21:16
Speaker 2: and we know the topic of Kamala Harris coming to Texas,
21:20
Speaker 2: and there's a lot of people that will look at
21:22
Speaker 2: that going, why don't you have an abortion event? If
21:25
Speaker 2: this is what your agenda is, right, it's an abortion
21:27
Speaker 2: event in Texas, why would you not have it, like
21:30
Speaker 2: you said, in a swing state like Pennsylvania, someplace where
21:32
Speaker 2: she desperately needs a win. Because I agree with you,
21:35
Speaker 2: Donald Trump is going to win Texas. But then if
21:38
Speaker 2: you look at what the left has been saying over
21:41
Speaker 2: the last twenty four hours, it actually makes it pretty
21:43
Speaker 2: clear they're trying to turn Texas into this evil, awful,
21:50
Speaker 2: anti women, anti feminist state where their restrictions on abortion,
21:57
Speaker 2: as they describe them, are barbaric, that women going to
22:00
Speaker 2: be dying in the alleyways, and that they're evil people
22:03
Speaker 2: in Texas. I mean, that's one hell of a get
22:05
Speaker 2: out the vote way. I guess for her to share it,
22:09
Speaker 2: I guess for the rest of the country.
22:10
Speaker 1: I still think it's a mistake.
22:12
Speaker 3: Well, look, I guess for Democrats in some ways, it's
22:15
Speaker 3: the mirror image of you see a lot of Republicans
22:17
Speaker 3: talking about how bad things have gotten in California and
22:21
Speaker 3: the failures and policies there, and the crime that's there
22:25
Speaker 3: and the economic suffering that's there. There is of course
22:29
Speaker 3: a difference, which is that people are actively fleeing California.
22:33
Speaker 3: They're leaving because of the consequences of those policies. And
22:36
Speaker 3: you and I both live in Texas. Every single day,
22:40
Speaker 3: more than a thousand people moved to Texas, and they're
22:42
Speaker 3: coming consistently from bright blue states, from California, from Illinois,
22:47
Speaker 3: from New York, from New Jersey, from Connecticut, from states
22:50
Speaker 3: where high Texas, high regulations, woke policies, shut downs, all
22:54
Speaker 3: of these idiotic policies are hurting people that they're fed
22:58
Speaker 3: up with the out of control crime and Kamala trying
23:00
Speaker 3: to portray Texas as some hellhole. Well it's it's It
23:05
Speaker 3: is counterbalanced by the fact that that people are voting
23:08
Speaker 3: with their feet and they want to be in Texas
23:09
Speaker 3: because Texas is where the jobs are. They want to
23:12
Speaker 3: be in Texas because your family is safer there because
23:14
Speaker 3: crime is more under control in Texas, because we support
23:17
Speaker 3: law enforcement in Texas, because you don't have the fully
23:23
Speaker 3: woke policies. And you know, it is interesting. I think
23:27
Speaker 3: Kamala the wheels are coming off the bus on Kamala's.
23:32
Speaker 4: Campaign and they're panicking. They don't know what to do.
23:34
Speaker 2: Can you just say that again the first time we've
23:37
Speaker 2: said this, like, this is not something that we've said before.
23:41
Speaker 2: And I'm not kidding when I when I say this,
23:44
Speaker 2: this is big breaking news. You and I have not
23:47
Speaker 2: talked about this at all until about the last three
23:50
Speaker 2: or four days.
23:51
Speaker 1: This election seems to be changing.
23:54
Speaker 3: Yeah, Look, they are panicking. I think the Kamala campaign
23:58
Speaker 3: feels this election slipping away from them and they are
24:01
Speaker 3: scared that they are losing. And I think, you know,
24:03
Speaker 3: I had said previously that I put the odds of
24:07
Speaker 3: the election at fifty to fifty. I would now shift
24:10
Speaker 3: it to fifty five forty five. I think Trump has
24:12
Speaker 3: the advantage now, it's not it's not eighty twenty. It's
24:15
Speaker 3: not a slam dunk. The numbers are still very close.
24:18
Speaker 3: They're within a couple of points in the swing states.
24:20
Speaker 3: But I think the momentum has clearly shifted to Trump,
24:23
Speaker 3: and I think the Kamala team is in panic about it.
24:26
Speaker 3: So they just took a full day off, and it
24:30
Speaker 3: was interesting what they took the day off for. The
24:32
Speaker 3: purpose of the day off was to get ready for
24:35
Speaker 3: an MSNBC interview. And maybe there's a reason, because I
24:38
Speaker 3: got to say that MSNBC interview did not go well.
24:42
Speaker 3: Take a listen to this exchange to Kamala's interview on MSNBC.
24:46
Speaker 9: WEM But I don't know that I heard a clear
24:48
Speaker 9: answer from you on the issue of gender firm Matara.
24:50
Speaker 9: Sounds like what you're saying is this should be something
24:51
Speaker 9: between trans Americans and their doctors. It feels like that's
24:55
Speaker 9: a long way from we see you and we love you,
24:56
Speaker 9: which was your message to trans Americans in May.
24:59
Speaker 1: What do you want.
25:00
Speaker 9: LGBTQ plus community to know as they're looking for a
25:02
Speaker 9: full throated backing from you for trans Americans.
25:07
Speaker 6: I believe that all people should be treated with dignity
25:11
Speaker 6: and respect, period and should not be vilified for who
25:17
Speaker 6: they are and should not be.
25:20
Speaker 4: Bullied for who they are.
25:22
Speaker 6: And that is a true statement for me my entire career,
25:28
Speaker 6: and that has not changed.
25:30
Speaker 2: I love how long she pauses there, because that is
25:33
Speaker 2: a slam dunk in theory conversation that she would normally
25:38
Speaker 2: have no problems with over at MSNBCNBC, and yet.
25:41
Speaker 1: She flip flopped on it.
25:43
Speaker 2: And so now they're upset that I called on a second,
25:46
Speaker 2: this is not what you said last time, as we've
25:48
Speaker 2: been giving you all this free press, telling everybody you're amazing,
25:51
Speaker 2: even though no one's ever voted.
25:53
Speaker 1: For you for president.
25:55
Speaker 3: And mind you, the question there was what Kamala had
25:59
Speaker 3: pre obviously said, do you think American taxpayers should pay
26:05
Speaker 3: for sex change surgeries for illegal immigrants who were in prison? Which,
26:12
Speaker 3: as I pointed out before, when Trump referenced that in
26:15
Speaker 3: the debate, it sounded so outlandish. It sounded like a
26:18
Speaker 3: Saturday Night Live skit, like if SNL was willing to
26:21
Speaker 3: make fun of Democrats. Although interesting enough, they're starting to
26:24
Speaker 3: make fun of Kamala, but it sounds like, if you
26:27
Speaker 3: were to conjure up, let's come up with the most
26:29
Speaker 3: insane thing a Democrat can come up with. I know,
26:32
Speaker 3: taxpayers pay for sex change surgeries for illegal immigrants? No, no, no,
26:37
Speaker 3: that's not enough in prison? Yes, yes, that's it.
26:39
Speaker 4: That's it.
26:40
Speaker 3: You know, she is of course on video saying yes,
26:44
Speaker 3: we should pay for those, and Trump is understandably running
26:48
Speaker 3: ads playing her saying that and making the point, look,
26:52
Speaker 3: this is a radical and out of touch agenda. This
26:54
Speaker 3: is not where the American people are. And the Kamala
26:56
Speaker 3: campaign realizes, oh crap, wait, people are realizing that my
26:59
Speaker 3: positions are radical and out of touch, and so she's
27:02
Speaker 3: trying to run away from it. What is fascinating is
27:05
Speaker 3: that MSNBC is turning on her on this. You know,
27:08
Speaker 3: up until this point, Kamala has been able to run away.
27:12
Speaker 3: She's been able to pretend, for example, she's for border security,
27:15
Speaker 3: and the left hadn't turned on her on that because they.
27:18
Speaker 4: Knew she was lying. They know she's an open borders radical.
27:20
Speaker 4: She has been her whole life.
27:21
Speaker 3: She still is an open borders radical, and so they understood, Okay,
27:25
Speaker 3: for thirty days before the election, you could pretend you're
27:28
Speaker 3: not an open borders radical, and we know that if
27:29
Speaker 3: you win the very next day, the open borders are
27:32
Speaker 3: back full force. It's interesting that their approach on transgender extremism.
27:38
Speaker 3: For some reason, this is an issue where the left
27:41
Speaker 3: cannot stomach any dissension at all. And you know there's
27:47
Speaker 3: another exchange where MSNBC pushes her on Joe Biden's cognitive
27:53
Speaker 3: cognitive state, and again her answer is terrible.
27:56
Speaker 4: Give a listen.
27:57
Speaker 9: Can you say that you were honest with the American
27:59
Speaker 9: people about what you saw in those moments with President
28:02
Speaker 9: Biden as you were with him again and again repeatedly
28:04
Speaker 9: in that time.
28:06
Speaker 6: Of course, Joe Biden is an extremely accomplished, experienced and
28:17
Speaker 6: capable in every way that anyone would want if they're president.
28:22
Speaker 9: You never saw anything like what happened at the debate
28:24
Speaker 9: night behind closed doors with him.
28:26
Speaker 1: It was a bad debate.
28:27
Speaker 4: People have bad debates.
28:29
Speaker 9: Should he is absolutely that's the reason why you're here.
28:33
Speaker 9: And he's not running for the top of the ticket.
28:36
Speaker 6: Well, you'd have to ask him if that's the only
28:38
Speaker 6: reason why, what do you think I am running for
28:43
Speaker 6: president in the United States? Joe Biden is not. And
28:46
Speaker 6: my presidency will be about bringing a new generation of
28:52
Speaker 6: leadership to America that is focused on the work that
28:55
Speaker 6: we need to do to invest in the ambitions and
28:58
Speaker 6: aspirations of the American people.
29:00
Speaker 2: I mean, that's just a bad answer, Like it's an
29:03
Speaker 2: answer that you're sitting there and if you work on
29:05
Speaker 2: her staff, you can't think that this is going.
29:07
Speaker 3: Well well, And she continued to get pressed on the
29:11
Speaker 3: fact that Biden has obviously diminished and she dug it
29:14
Speaker 3: even more. Give a listen to how she continued, it's
29:16
Speaker 3: a judgment question.
29:17
Speaker 9: That's why I ask, can the American people trust you
29:19
Speaker 9: in these moments even when it's maybe uncomfortable for Americans
29:22
Speaker 9: to have to level with Americans in that way.
29:25
Speaker 1: So that's why I ask.
29:26
Speaker 9: And it sounds like what you're saying is you feel
29:27
Speaker 9: like you never saw anything like that from President Biden.
29:30
Speaker 6: I have worked with Joe Biden, whether hours and hours
29:33
Speaker 6: and hours over these four years, whether it be in
29:37
Speaker 6: the situation room or the Oval office. Joe Biden is
29:41
Speaker 6: the one who was able to bring NATO together during
29:45
Speaker 6: a crisis where for the first time in seventy years,
29:48
Speaker 6: Europe saw and has seen war. Joe Biden has done
29:52
Speaker 6: the work that has been about being a leader on
29:55
Speaker 6: what we have done to fix so much of what
29:58
Speaker 6: has been broken in terms of the economy because of
30:00
Speaker 6: Donald Trump' smithsmanagement. I speak with not only sincerity, but
30:05
Speaker 6: with a real first hand account of watching him do
30:12
Speaker 6: this work. I have no reluctance in saying that, No,
30:15
Speaker 6: of course I don't.
30:16
Speaker 2: She, by the way, was not happy at the end
30:19
Speaker 2: of that question because I think she knew this was
30:22
Speaker 2: a screw.
30:23
Speaker 1: Up for her.
30:24
Speaker 3: Well, look, in a lot of ways, it's an impossible
30:28
Speaker 3: question for her. Because let's assume for a second that
30:32
Speaker 3: Kamala Harris hires Ben Ferguson to coach her on this question.
30:36
Speaker 3: And let's assume that Ben Ferguson his brain is cup
30:40
Speaker 3: captured by body snatchers and he decides he's willing to
30:43
Speaker 3: work for Kamala Harris. I ask you, in all seriousness,
30:46
Speaker 3: what would you tell her, because there's nothing she can say.
30:48
Speaker 3: There is no answer to give to this question because
30:51
Speaker 3: the truth of the matter. Okay, here's the honest answer. Yes,
30:55
Speaker 3: of course I knew he was senile. Of course I
30:56
Speaker 3: knew he was incompetent. Every person in the room knew
30:59
Speaker 3: he was incompetent. The guy couldn't tie his shoes. He
31:01
Speaker 3: was utterly and completely in the full throes of dementia.
31:05
Speaker 3: That was obvious to every person there. Now, that would
31:08
Speaker 3: have the advantage of being true, but it would also
31:12
Speaker 3: be an admission that she spent four years lying to
31:14
Speaker 3: the American people on a daily basis, So she can't
31:17
Speaker 3: say that, so she has to instead say Nope, nothing
31:22
Speaker 3: seemed wrong to me. Everything seemed fine. He was the smartest,
31:26
Speaker 3: most handsome, most amazing leader I've ever seen. Huh Who knew?
31:31
Speaker 3: Who knew that there were issues there? Mind you? You
31:33
Speaker 3: and I were talking about this years ago. Anyone observing
31:36
Speaker 3: knew this years ago. But she is trapped by her
31:41
Speaker 3: own misconduct because the truth, I guess she figures is
31:46
Speaker 3: more damning than the lie. I mean, seriously, what would
31:49
Speaker 3: you advise her?
31:50
Speaker 4: Bet?
31:50
Speaker 2: If she hired you, Yeah, I would have told her
31:52
Speaker 2: a look. I think you can say, hey, I saw
31:55
Speaker 2: the man this. If I was writing a response, I
31:57
Speaker 2: would have said, do it this way. I look, I
31:59
Speaker 2: worked the man every day. I when you see somebody
32:03
Speaker 2: every day, sometimes you may not realize how much there
32:07
Speaker 2: is a decline. But when I watched him during the debate,
32:10
Speaker 2: many of us privately after that knew that we need
32:12
Speaker 2: to have a conversation. That conversation took place, and he
32:17
Speaker 2: did the right thing for the country. And that's why
32:18
Speaker 2: I'm sitting here in front of you today. But you
32:20
Speaker 2: also have to understand then she had give him smack.
32:23
Speaker 2: Did he did this well and this well and well
32:25
Speaker 2: in this well? And I think even now Joe Biden
32:27
Speaker 2: understands it's time for riend to retire. That's why I'm
32:29
Speaker 2: sitting in front of you. That would have been a
32:30
Speaker 2: better answer to just straight up lying to the American
32:32
Speaker 2: people saying I saw nothing at all, because that's when
32:35
Speaker 2: they don't believe you.
32:37
Speaker 4: Yeah.
32:37
Speaker 3: Look, hers is the Sergeant Schultz answer from Hogan's hearing.
32:40
Speaker 3: I see nothing, I know nothing. That That was her answer.
32:44
Speaker 1: Yeah, it is.
32:45
Speaker 2: And this goes back to the trustworthy aspect of Kamala
32:49
Speaker 2: And if you look at her, she was confronted, for example,
32:52
Speaker 2: on Bidenomics, which she's touted as being amazing. Right, she's
32:57
Speaker 2: obsessed with it. It was awesome, We've got a great economy,
33:01
Speaker 2: bidnomics is everything. It's doing well, and then she's asked
33:05
Speaker 2: about it now because the majority of American voters and
33:09
Speaker 2: minority voters especially are going, no, it's not great.
33:12
Speaker 1: We're suffering, we're hurting, and I.
33:15
Speaker 9: Wonder are the last four years an obstacle to you
33:18
Speaker 9: in this race.
33:19
Speaker 6: Here's how I look at it. First of all, let
33:22
Speaker 6: me be very clear. Mine will not be a continuation
33:25
Speaker 6: of the Biden administration. I bring my own experiences, my
33:27
Speaker 6: own ideas to it, and it has informed a number
33:30
Speaker 6: of my areas of focus, most of which are on
33:33
Speaker 6: to your point, lowering costs. So part of my plan
33:36
Speaker 6: includes what we need to do to bring down the
33:38
Speaker 6: price of groceries, including the work I will do dealing
33:41
Speaker 6: with price gouging, something I dealt with when I was
33:43
Speaker 6: Attorney general, something I will deal with going forward.
33:46
Speaker 9: Then, why do you think that's not landing with voters,
33:47
Speaker 9: because in the numbers it's the opposite. Former President Trump
33:50
Speaker 9: leads you on this issue.
33:51
Speaker 6: Well, when I'm out, this is why I'm going out
33:54
Speaker 6: to Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, and.
33:58
Speaker 4: In Michigan, Michigan, excuse me.
34:00
Speaker 6: Just got in late this morning, actually, but going to
34:03
Speaker 6: three states yesterday, and I'm going to continue being on
34:05
Speaker 6: the road.
34:06
Speaker 4: I have to earn the vote.
34:09
Speaker 2: That's breaking news. My administration will not be a continuation
34:13
Speaker 2: of his. In other words, yes, what we did was
34:15
Speaker 2: what sucked. It was bad for the American people, and
34:18
Speaker 2: so therefore I don't want to be connected him. But
34:21
Speaker 2: then I want to immediately tell you that I'm proud
34:22
Speaker 2: of what we've done together while I was in office.
34:25
Speaker 2: It's like, if you say that to the American people
34:27
Speaker 2: that are hurting, I don't see how that ends well
34:29
Speaker 2: for you.
34:30
Speaker 3: Well, and remember that's the exact opposite of what she
34:33
Speaker 3: told the view. If you asked her, how will your
34:36
Speaker 3: administration be different from the Biden administration? She said, Oh,
34:38
Speaker 3: I can't think of a thing I'd do differently. I
34:40
Speaker 3: can't think of anything. And yet now she's saying mine
34:42
Speaker 3: will not be continuation of the Biden administration. How is
34:45
Speaker 3: it different? Well, I'm me, I'm not him. I'll just
34:47
Speaker 3: do exactly the same thing he was doing. But we're
34:50
Speaker 3: different people. That's how it's different.
34:52
Speaker 1: Yeah, it is.
34:52
Speaker 2: I want to talk to you about safety real quick
34:54
Speaker 2: with your family. I keep my family safe two different ways.
34:58
Speaker 2: One by having a firearm so I can protect and
35:01
Speaker 2: defend myself. But I also have something else, and that
35:05
Speaker 2: is I have someone that's looking out for my rights
35:08
Speaker 2: and my protection with the law if something ever happens
35:13
Speaker 2: and I actually have to use that firearm. That is
35:16
Speaker 2: why I want you to know about the twenty four
35:19
Speaker 2: to seven Critical Response Team that is included benefit of
35:24
Speaker 2: self defense liability insurance to make sure you and your
35:27
Speaker 2: family are prepared for anything. This comes from the USCCA.
35:32
Speaker 2: Everyone thinks they're keeping their family safe, but are you
35:35
Speaker 2: really is a question you've got to ask. With Lee's
35:37
Speaker 2: elections coming up, anything might happen, and if you dare
35:40
Speaker 2: defend yourself, many activist das and the twisted legal system
35:45
Speaker 2: will probably put you behind bars while the criminal walks free.
35:49
Speaker 2: We see it happen unfortunately, almost every single day in
35:52
Speaker 2: this country, and that is exactly why you need to
35:55
Speaker 2: protect yourself and your right to carry a firearm. You
36:00
Speaker 2: don't want to risk losing everything, and that is where
36:03
Speaker 2: they come in. That's why over eight hundred thousand Americans
36:07
Speaker 2: are members of the USCCA, because not only will you
36:10
Speaker 2: get access to their Protector Academy to learn vital skills
36:14
Speaker 2: like precision shooting and how to fortify your home against criminals,
36:18
Speaker 2: but you're also going to get access to that twenty
36:20
Speaker 2: four to seven critical response team and the included benefit
36:24
Speaker 2: of self defense liability insurance to make sure you and
36:27
Speaker 2: your family are prepared for anything. Now I've had to
36:30
Speaker 2: use a gun to protect and defend myself. I had
36:32
Speaker 2: to pull that trigger, and I can tell you the
36:35
Speaker 2: peace of mind of knowing I had someone looking out
36:37
Speaker 2: for me in that moment would have been worth I
36:41
Speaker 2: can't even explain how much going through that process, and
36:44
Speaker 2: that's why I am a member. Right now and for
36:47
Speaker 2: a limited time, text the word America to eight seven
36:52
Speaker 2: two two two to get the uscca's free Life Saving
36:57

Speaker 2: eight seven two two two. That's texta word America to

Speaker 2: eight seven to two right now. Senator One other question
37:22
Speaker 2: I want to ask you about this interview with Harris
37:25
Speaker 2: is they say that she took a day off when
37:29
Speaker 2: you ran for president. Did you ever take a day
37:32
Speaker 2: off in the last two weeks when you're running in
37:34
Speaker 2: a primary to get ready for an interview. The whole
37:40
Speaker 2: entire campaign right now seems to be in at least
37:43
Speaker 2: a strategy in shambles, like you're coming to Texas where
37:46
Speaker 2: you're not competitive because you want to highlight abortion issues.
37:50
Speaker 2: I get it, But why not do that in Pennsylvania?
37:52
Speaker 2: Why not do it a swing steak. Why not doing
37:54
Speaker 2: a place that you think you're gonna win but it's
37:56
Speaker 2: gotten tight in the polls.
37:58
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'll confess I am a lot less critical of
38:01
Speaker 3: her on that front than some folks are. Even in
38:06
Speaker 3: the most intense campaigning times. I try to take it
38:10
Speaker 3: down day a week. I try to take Sundays down
38:13
Speaker 3: and be home with the kids, home with Heidi, home
38:15
Speaker 3: with the girls. And look, do I do that one
38:19
Speaker 3: hundred percent of the time. No, So, for example, like
38:22
Speaker 3: right before election day, I might not do that a
38:25
Speaker 3: day or two before election day. But even through a
38:28
Speaker 3: long campaign, a campaign is a grind. A campaign You're
38:32
Speaker 3: going fourteen fifteen, sixteen, seventeen, eighteen hours a day. It's exhausting,
38:38
Speaker 3: and so I actually think it matters to take a
38:40
Speaker 3: down day, to be with your family, to unplug, to
38:43
Speaker 3: sleep in, to go to church at home, to sleep
38:47
Speaker 3: in your own bed, and I find you come back
38:50
Speaker 3: a better candidate. So on that piece, I'm not particularly critical.
38:55
Speaker 3: I think almost every candidate you're better off if you
38:58
Speaker 3: just grind yourself to where you can't see anymore.
39:01
Speaker 4: It ends up doing more harm than good.
39:03
Speaker 2: Well, and the last thing I want to ask you
39:05
Speaker 2: is the news that has come out, and it's quietly broken.
39:08
Speaker 2: The mainstream media is not talking about it. But Harris's
39:12
Speaker 2: town hall moderator admitted the questions were quote pre determined.
39:18
Speaker 2: The moderator, Maria Shriver, admitted that the questions again were
39:22
Speaker 2: pre determined.
39:25
Speaker 1: This is her in her own words.
39:27
Speaker 6: You're not unfortunately, we have some pre determined questions, and
39:32
Speaker 6: I hopefully I'll be able to ask some of the
39:33
Speaker 6: questions that might be in your head.
39:35
Speaker 1: I hope.
39:35
Speaker 2: So that was her talking to the audience. That video
39:39
Speaker 2: has been leaked. Someone said we're going to be able
39:42
Speaker 2: to ask her own questions and she says, no, you can't.
39:45
Speaker 2: They've been predetermined, meaning the campaign's got them. Kamla knew it.
39:49
Speaker 2: This whole thing was a ruse from the very beginning.
39:51
Speaker 2: It wasn't an authentic or real town hall.
39:54
Speaker 3: Well, look, I can tell you I've done hundreds of
39:58
Speaker 3: town halls. I think I've ever known the questions before
40:01
Speaker 3: in any of them. It is not one hundred percent
40:05
Speaker 3: clear from what Maria Shriver said whether they were determined
40:09
Speaker 3: predetermined by the network or by the Kamala Harris campaign,
40:12
Speaker 3: and I will say those are different. It is possible
40:15
Speaker 3: that she's saying no, no, no, We the network picked
40:19
Speaker 3: which one of the audience questions we want to ask
40:21
Speaker 3: because we wanted to divvy up the topics and not
40:23
Speaker 3: have nineteen questions on abortion. We wanted to talk about
40:28
Speaker 3: something else that's possible and that might be more understandable.
40:32
Speaker 3: But I'll tell you if that's the case, they certainly
40:34
Speaker 3: haven't clarified it. It absolutely raised the inference of the
40:37
Speaker 3: Kamala Harris campaign had information about what the predetermined questions were.
40:43
Speaker 3: And if that's true, then it completely It makes a
40:49
Speaker 3: laughing stock about what is supposed to be journalism because
40:51
Speaker 3: that's certainly not like any town hall I've ever done.
40:54
Speaker 1: Yeah, no doubt about it. Don't forget.
40:56
