WOMEN SAVE the Democratic Party in Midterms, as YOUR tax dollars, meant for student loan forgiveness, will be spent DINING OUT and on TRAVEL! · The Ben Ferguson Podcast

0:00
Speaker 1: Women actually saved the Democratic Party in these mid terms.
0:06
Speaker 1: The numbers that we're seeing now are showing that women
0:10
Speaker 1: one percent save John Fetterman. Women are the ones that
0:15
Speaker 1: put Georgia into a runoff. Women are the ones that
0:20
Speaker 1: broke for many of the liberal socialist candidates. Was it
0:24
Speaker 1: the issue of Roe v. Wade where it's too soon
0:26
Speaker 1: to tell. We don't know if that was the main issue.
0:30
Speaker 1: But women did save the Democratic Party. They did not
0:33
Speaker 1: leave in as big as numbers as men did, and
0:35
Speaker 1: also as minorities and many races. Take a listen. But
0:39
Speaker 1: I will start with you, Jim. It's not a knock
0:43
Speaker 1: on Obama to recall those headwinds, the Tea Party, all
0:47
Speaker 1: of that. As we await this president's remarks, what do
0:50
Speaker 1: you think of how this early indication stacks up against
0:54
Speaker 1: past losses for incumbents way better than expected. I was
0:58
Speaker 1: just on a call just now with a large just
1:00
Speaker 1: downers in the Democratic Party and to say there was
1:02
Speaker 1: a sense of relief and surprise. Yes we're going to
1:05
Speaker 1: lose the House, although very very close, and a bunch
1:08
Speaker 1: of racists are outstanding. History matters here. The President's party
1:11
Speaker 1: in the last forty years is lost in average of
1:13
Speaker 1: twenty eight House seats and four Senate seats. Democrats are
1:16
Speaker 1: just overperforming, and once again it's women who saved us
1:20
Speaker 1: the abortion issue and the democracy issue, both combined. If
1:25
Speaker 1: you look at some of the actual polling and you
1:26
Speaker 1: look at why we did so much better than expected.
1:29
Speaker 1: As you and I discussed many times, the polls are
1:31
Speaker 1: wrong again for the fourth cycle, and the reason why
1:34
Speaker 1: they were wrong is the underestimated democratic enthusiasm. In some
1:38
Speaker 1: of these key races, especially in the Midwest, women voted
1:42
Speaker 1: for Democrats and much larger numbers. Now there is a
1:47
Speaker 1: aspect of this, and I'm going to guess because we
1:50
Speaker 1: still don't have all the data. Heck, we don't even
1:52
Speaker 1: know who's going to win. Apparently in Arizona until Friday.
1:55
Speaker 1: They're now saying that they did an interview earlier today
2:00
Speaker 1: talking about all of the problems they had in Arizona,
2:03
Speaker 1: and now the Maricopa County Supervisor is saying, we anticipate
2:06
Speaker 1: ninety five to ninety nine percent of the votes will
2:09
Speaker 1: be counted in Maricopa County by the end of the
2:12
Speaker 1: day on Friday, So we're not even gonna have data
2:16
Speaker 1: necessarily on all the women until after Friday into the weekend.
2:21
Speaker 1: My guess is that Democrats had a silver bullet in
2:24
Speaker 1: this election. Democrats have certain issues that really rally their base.
2:31
Speaker 1: They are issues like abortion. Roe v Wade rallied women
2:36
Speaker 1: to the Democratic Party. And you combine that with running
2:41
Speaker 1: some bad candidates like doctor Oz on the Republican side,
2:45
Speaker 1: that it was easy for them to say, I don't
2:47
Speaker 1: like him, and they said, all right, we'll break for
2:51
Speaker 1: a guy like Fetterman who is an incompetent individual, because
2:55
Speaker 1: that's times they care about power right and feminists and
2:57
Speaker 1: women's rights. I mean, that's big, big, big, big for them.
3:01
Speaker 1: I mean, if you want to know, by the way,
3:03
Speaker 1: how delusional the Democrats are, they were actually last night
3:07
Speaker 1: on MSNBC on Election Night floating the idea of John
3:12
Speaker 1: Federman is a potential nominee for the presidency. Listen. I
3:18
Speaker 1: spent a lot of time covering this phrase and with
3:21
Speaker 1: Pennsylvania politics going back some decades because I started my
3:26
Speaker 1: career there. But the fact that John Fetterman did, first
3:30
Speaker 1: of all, so much better with white, non college educated voters,
3:37
Speaker 1: better than Biden, better than Trump, so he ran ahead
3:41
Speaker 1: of both of them. But he also did fairly well
3:45
Speaker 1: in the cities and in the collar counties, and I
3:48
Speaker 1: attribute that partly to the extremism at the top of
3:51
Speaker 1: the ticket in Pennsylvania with Mastriano doctor Oz's comments on abortion,
3:58
Speaker 1: which was part of that abate that perhaps did not
4:01
Speaker 1: get as much attention. It got attention from the professionals,
4:03
Speaker 1: but not from a lot of the media, because that
4:07
Speaker 1: really was as big a deal coming out of that
4:10
Speaker 1: debate as Federman's performance. I also think he ran everywhere
4:14
Speaker 1: in the state, which is a lesson for Democrats. He
4:17
Speaker 1: left no stone unturned and he ran as exactly who
4:19
Speaker 1: he is. I mean, I have no doubt that if
4:21
Speaker 1: John Federman were sitting here, if he were in a bar,
4:23
Speaker 1: if he were with his family and a restaurant, he'd
4:26
Speaker 1: be exactly the same person. And voters completely see through that.
4:30
Speaker 1: So that is also a lesson for Democrats too. This
4:33
Speaker 1: is a this is a guy, you know who he is,
4:35
Speaker 1: you know what you're getting, and that ultimately matters in politics.
4:38
Speaker 1: Federman as a nominee at some point for president. I
4:43
Speaker 1: know there's some variables, obviously, but he just dow But
4:47
Speaker 1: I just you know, what he did in the super
4:51
Speaker 1: Red deep red parts of Pennsylvania, and the way that
4:54
Speaker 1: he ran ahead of Biden, as you were saying, ran
4:55
Speaker 1: ahead of Trump. I mean, it just makes it makes
4:57
Speaker 1: you wonder about his future. It's insane. They're actually sitting
5:04
Speaker 1: there saying Fetterman is a nominee at some point could
5:08
Speaker 1: be the president. And this just tells you how the
5:12
Speaker 1: Democratic Party, and I gotta give him credit, has completely
5:16
Speaker 1: solidified behind socialism. Okay, he is a hardcore socialist. He's
5:22
Speaker 1: a guy that says he is a he's a he
5:24
Speaker 1: is a proud man. Okay, he is a proud man.
5:28
Speaker 1: I want to make this very very very clear. To
5:31
Speaker 1: let murderers out of prison, he is proud to say
5:36
Speaker 1: that he's paroled murderers. These are what socialists do. They
5:41
Speaker 1: undermine your your country, They undermine the rule of law,
5:47
Speaker 1: They allow for anarchy to be created. They then seize
5:51
Speaker 1: power through that anarchy, just like we saw with COVID lockdowns.
5:55
Speaker 1: And now they're sitting there on set at MSNBC saying, look,
5:59
Speaker 1: you obviously have to now really talk about John Fetterman's
6:03
Speaker 1: future as a candidate for the United States of America
6:06
Speaker 1: for the president. And before last night, I would have
6:08
Speaker 1: said that that will never happen. Right, of course, that
6:11
Speaker 1: willn't happen. And this guy can't. This guy puts together
6:14
Speaker 1: sentences that no one can understand. This is a guy
6:17
Speaker 1: that says, I'm in favorite fracking, I'm against fracking, and
6:20
Speaker 1: then I'm in favorite fracking, all virtually exactly how I
6:23
Speaker 1: just said it. This is a guy that starts to
6:26
Speaker 1: debate by saying good night, and now they're staying there. Wow,
6:29
Speaker 1: you gotta have a legitimate conversation about the future of
6:34
Speaker 1: the Democratic Party and John Fetterman leading it as a
6:37
Speaker 1: presidential candidate. But before I get to that, I want
6:40
Speaker 1: to tell you about our good friends over at Legacy

Speaker 1: That's Legacy PM investments dot com. If there's anything that
8:02
Speaker 1: you take away from these midterms is that the Democrats
8:05
Speaker 1: will overlook any corruption right any corruption hunter Biden, James Biden,
8:13
Speaker 1: Joe Biden don't care. They will overlook and actually use
8:17
Speaker 1: killing of children through abortion at any point in a
8:21
Speaker 1: child's life as a rallying cry to actually get feminists
8:26
Speaker 1: to vote for them. They will elect transgendered lawmakers into office.
8:34
Speaker 1: That just happened. I don't know if you know this,
8:36
Speaker 1: but Minnesota, just to break the transceiling, elected their first
8:42
Speaker 1: transgendered state lawmaker. A dude dressed like a chick is
8:46
Speaker 1: now the first transgendered state lawmaker to be elected in Minnesota.
8:51
Speaker 1: And this is like their new darling man. And I'm
8:53
Speaker 1: waiting for them to say on TV next well, you know, maybe, hey,
8:58
Speaker 1: maybe this transgendered chick that's a dude, or dude that's
9:01
Speaker 1: a chick, whatever the hell it is, it's got a
9:04
Speaker 1: chance of the White House. Minnesota voters elected the first
9:07
Speaker 1: state's transgendered state lawmaker in the office, making history. The
9:11
Speaker 1: Democratic candidate Lee Think It's a dude with red pink
9:16
Speaker 1: hair looking like a chick got eighty one percent of
9:20
Speaker 1: the vote in District sixty six A in the Minnesota
9:24
Speaker 1: House of Representatives. The district is located on the northeast
9:27
Speaker 1: of Minneapolis. Minnesota has a population of about forty one thousand.
9:33
Speaker 1: The dude dressed like a chicks opponent Trace Johnson only
9:36
Speaker 1: received eighteen point five percent of the vote. Wow, so
9:42
Speaker 1: there you go. They're just they don't care. I mean,
9:44
Speaker 1: this is just you know, and the LGBTQI Democratic Party
9:50
Speaker 1: and women, by the way, overwhelm. We voted for this
9:51
Speaker 1: dude acting like a chick. So if you think the
9:55
Speaker 1: Democratic Party is weak, they're not. They are tribal. They
9:58
Speaker 1: are in a cult. Right, this is a cult. And
10:04
Speaker 1: if you tell them to mask up, this cult will
10:06
Speaker 1: do it, and they'll tell you you're trying to kill
10:08
Speaker 1: them if you don't. If you tell this cult to
10:11
Speaker 1: shut down their business, they will do it. And if
10:14
Speaker 1: you fight back, they'll say you're trying to kill them.
10:18
Speaker 1: If you look at this cult. And that's what the
10:20
Speaker 1: Socialist Democratic Party is. It's very clear from these election
10:24
Speaker 1: results that your kid needs to lose two years of
10:27
Speaker 1: their education because of COVID. Right, even though the private
10:32
Speaker 1: schools are doing the whole time and there's no problems,
10:34
Speaker 1: they will shut down and ruin children's lives and ruined
10:38
Speaker 1: high school. With kids' lives and their high school experience
10:40
Speaker 1: and their senior years. They will do it. They will
10:42
Speaker 1: ruin college. They will do it. Because they are a cult.
10:47
Speaker 1: There is nothing I think now that from what I'm learning,
10:50
Speaker 1: because you have to learn from elections when you lose, right,
10:55
Speaker 1: when you lose the way that we lost, and yes
10:58
Speaker 1: we won, Okay, we got rid of Nancy Pello, but
11:00
Speaker 1: the Senate still up in the air. And this should
11:04
Speaker 1: have been a much bigger red wave. This, this should
11:08
Speaker 1: have been a much bigger red wave with all of
11:12
Speaker 1: the issues. And you have to understand now the takeaway
11:16
Speaker 1: is the Democratic Party will elect people that are dead.
11:20
Speaker 1: They actually did that last night as well. They elected
11:22
Speaker 1: a dead guy. They will elect a dude dress like
11:25
Speaker 1: a chick. They will elect a guy that's incapacitated in fetterman,
11:30
Speaker 1: all to get all in a cult like fashion for power. CNBC,
11:36
Speaker 1: by the way, came out today and said one of
11:39
Speaker 1: the big issues with younger voters was that student debt
11:42
Speaker 1: loan forgiveness. You want to know what you're really paying
11:45
Speaker 1: for because this will be your tax dollars. Okay, your
11:49
Speaker 1: tax dollars are gonna go to pay off student loans
11:54
Speaker 1: of people that should pay them themselves. You want to
11:57
Speaker 1: know what they're gonna do with that money. They're ding
12:00
Speaker 1: on spending it dining out and on travel. That's what
12:04
Speaker 1: you're paying for. Let's turn out to our CNBC Money Minute.
12:07
Speaker 1: Recipients of President Biden's student debt forgiveness plan could see
12:11
Speaker 1: their monthly payments drop up to three hundred dollars a
12:13
Speaker 1: month in the coming weeks. But get this, seventy three
12:16
Speaker 1: percent say they actually plan to spend that extra cash
12:19
Speaker 1: on travel and dining out and joining us now is
12:22
Speaker 1: the NBC text check go anchor, Dear Drabosa, So, Dear Drew,
12:25
Speaker 1: why are people more inclined to spend the money they're
12:27
Speaker 1: saving on non essentials instead of paying off their bills?
12:30
Speaker 1: I think we may know the answer. Well, that could
12:33
Speaker 1: be according to one survey, But you know, it could
12:35
Speaker 1: be easy as well for some people to enjoy traveling
12:38
Speaker 1: and eating out rather than worrying about the future. One
12:40
Speaker 1: financial coach tell CNBC dot com that you should not
12:44
Speaker 1: use the loan forgiveness only for long term goals. Your
12:47
Speaker 1: short term self may get frustrated and give up on
12:50
Speaker 1: planning ahead altogether. So instead, they say, make sure your
12:53
Speaker 1: regular bills are paid, check in on your goals, and
12:56
Speaker 1: try to achieve a balance that also lets you invest
12:58
Speaker 1: in your future self. I mean, that's what you just
13:02
Speaker 1: paid off billions and billions of dollars in student loan
13:06
Speaker 1: debts so that people can take a break from their lives,
13:10
Speaker 1: eat out at nicer restaurants, and travel. You notice one
13:16
Speaker 1: thing that was very, very very clearly amitted from that conversation,
13:21
Speaker 1: people you know, doubling down on their student loan payments,
13:24
Speaker 1: really trying to get out from under that debt. Right
13:27
Speaker 1: with this much coming off the bottom line, you'd think
13:30
Speaker 1: that there would be people that be responsible. No, why
13:32
Speaker 1: the hell would we do that. We're not going to
13:35
Speaker 1: do that. We would never waste our time doing that.
13:39
Speaker 1: That's something that we don't do, right, we don't do that.
13:47
Speaker 1: This is the Democratic Party. We buy votes. Check. We
13:51
Speaker 1: vote for dead people, literally, intellect dead people. Check. We
13:56
Speaker 1: make history by voting a dude dressed like a chick
13:58
Speaker 1: into the into the into the representatives of Minnesota. Check.
14:02
Speaker 1: We elect a guy that can't put coherent sentences together
14:05
Speaker 1: to a capacitated just to keep our power. Check. They're
14:09
Speaker 1: no longer a party, they are a cult. We will
14:12
Speaker 1: use children and murdering those kids as a rallying cry
14:17
Speaker 1: to get women to show up and vote. Check you
14:21
Speaker 1: understand how this is really not different than a cult.
14:27
Speaker 1: We're gonna mask your kids, ruin their lives. Whatever you
14:30
Speaker 1: want to do, we're on board. That is the Democratic Party. Check,
14:34
Speaker 1: check and check. There is nothing now that this Democratic
14:38
Speaker 1: Party won't stand for it and won't do to gain
14:41
Speaker 1: power to move forward with anything that they desperately want
14:47
Speaker 1: or need. Doctor Fauci is their god, Joe Biden is
14:52
Speaker 1: their elderly leader. AOC is the organizer. And this is
14:58
Speaker 1: the cult of the Democratic Party where they're now actually
15:01
Speaker 1: talking about a real bright future that you have to
15:05
Speaker 1: talk about with John Fetterman, right, a guy that's incapacitated.
15:10
Speaker 1: They're now saying, well, you have to talk about his future.
15:15
Speaker 1: You have to talk about the presidency and if he runs,
15:19
Speaker 1: because what he did was so magical. Now there's another
15:23
Speaker 1: part about this with the Republican Party. What do we
15:26
Speaker 1: do Now? We've got to figure out do we want
15:33
Speaker 1: a grand debate for the presidential election? Do we wanted
15:36
Speaker 1: to santist Trump primary? And other people will jump in
15:42
Speaker 1: right because we made some big mistakes on election night
15:44
Speaker 1: running people like doctor Oz. We've got this runoff between
15:48
Speaker 1: Warnock and herschel Walker and Georgia, and that's gonna need
15:53
Speaker 1: and that's going to be one of those issues of
15:54
Speaker 1: control of the House, excuse me, control of the Senate.
15:58
Speaker 1: It's going to be a very important issue there. People
16:01
Speaker 1: are gonna have to donate, people are gonna have to
16:03
Speaker 1: get involved. We're not gonna be able to take a
16:05
Speaker 1: breath because that could turn that could literally turn the
16:08
Speaker 1: country one way or the other. And it's gonna be
16:10
Speaker 1: something that Democrats are going to go all in on.
16:13
Speaker 1: Republicans better get ready to give because if you don't,
16:17
Speaker 1: I'm telling you right now, we are screwed. We have
16:21
Speaker 1: to get involved in that one, and we've got to
16:24
Speaker 1: do it right now. I know there's a lot of
16:28
Speaker 1: people that get fatigued after elections. No Democrats will show up, Okay,
16:35
Speaker 1: know that. Understand that Democrats are not going to go away.
16:38
Speaker 1: Know that, and understand that Democrats are gonna show up
16:42
Speaker 1: in massive numbers and they are going to campaign for
16:45
Speaker 1: Warnock and they're gonna fundraise for Warnock and they are
16:48
Speaker 1: going to try to make sure that he gets elected.
16:51
Speaker 1: And we're gonna have to get on the other side,
16:53
Speaker 1: and we're gonna have to give money, and we're gonna
16:55
Speaker 1: have to organize, and we're gonna have to try to
16:57
Speaker 1: get herschel Walker across that finish line, because that runoff
17:00
Speaker 1: is a reality. It should have never happened. But that's
17:03
Speaker 1: where we are. We're gonna have to wait and see
17:06
Speaker 1: what happens in Arizona. They are now saying, as I
17:10
Speaker 1: mentioned earlier, that it's Friday, for goodness sakes, where we
17:14
Speaker 1: may get some numbers, may get some numbers. I think
17:18
Speaker 1: that is a total insanity of what happened out there
17:21
Speaker 1: where their machines not working. I believe that there's no
17:24
Speaker 1: way that was just totally completely accidental. That's my opinion.
17:30
Speaker 1: But we're going to have to really hunker down there
17:32
Speaker 1: as well. And if there's anything to hang your hat on, yes,
17:35
Speaker 1: Nancy Pelosi is gone. She is no longer going to
17:37
Speaker 1: be the Speaker of the House. And Florida we can
17:40
Speaker 1: learn from Florida. Florida got it right. They went all
17:43
Speaker 1: in the way you're supposed to in an election, and
17:45
Speaker 1: Florida is a model that every station should look at
17:48
Speaker 1: for voter integrity laws and for how to govern and
17:51
Speaker 1: how to stand up to this cult which is now
17:54
Speaker 1: the Democratic Party. So There's a couple of ways to
17:57
Speaker 1: look at where we are right now. Number One, you
18:00
Speaker 1: can look at it as let's get ready to rumble,
18:02
Speaker 1: right because there clearly seems to be a divide in
18:05
Speaker 1: the Republican Party about the pathway forward. Is the pathway
18:09
Speaker 1: involved rounda Santis or does it involve Donald Trump. There's
18:14
Speaker 1: also a let's get ready to rumble. Internally, many are
18:17
Speaker 1: now calling for the head of the RNC, Ronna mcdowald,
18:19
Speaker 1: who stepped down and resign, also Kevin McCarthy and Mitch McConnell,
18:24
Speaker 1: saying it is their fault that they didn't put real
18:26
Speaker 1: money behind certain candidates, that maybe they wanted to lose
18:29
Speaker 1: on purpose because they were too close to Donald Trump.
18:34
Speaker 1: That is part number two on this one. Now, then
18:39
Speaker 1: there's another part. Joe Biden may be here to stay
18:42
Speaker 1: because of the election results that happen. Joe Biden sang
18:46
Speaker 1: in his press conference, which sounded more like a victory
18:49
Speaker 1: speech than a disappointment. Even though it looks like Republicans
18:52
Speaker 1: will have control of the House and the Senate is
18:56
Speaker 1: going to be extremely tight, we're headed for a runoff
18:59
Speaker 1: in Georgia. The President now making it clear I'm not
19:03
Speaker 1: going anywhere. It'll be a family decision, but my intention
19:06
Speaker 1: is to run again. Take a listen, Thank you, sir.
19:10
Speaker 1: How do you interpret last night's results in terms of
19:12
Speaker 1: deciding whether you want to seek another term? Is it
19:16
Speaker 1: now more likely that you will run? And what's going
19:18
Speaker 1: to be your timeline for consideration? Well, first of all,
19:22
Speaker 1: Jill and I have and by the way, it's my
19:24
Speaker 1: wife kill Um who's held a lot more popular than
19:29
Speaker 1: I'm in Democratic Party too, but any rate all couldn't
19:33
Speaker 1: decide our Our intention is to run again. That's been
19:38
Speaker 1: our intention, regardless of what the outcome of this election
19:41
Speaker 1: was and the fact that we won, we I didn't run,
19:52
Speaker 1: the fact that the Democratic Party outperform anything anyone expected
19:57
Speaker 1: and did better than any off Your presidency, says John Kennedy,
20:02
Speaker 1: is one that gives everybody like who sigh, relief that
20:08
Speaker 1: the mega Republicans are not taking over the government again, etc.
20:14
Speaker 1: And uh so, uh, my judgment of running when I announce,
20:21
Speaker 1: if I know, my intention is that I run run again.
20:24
Speaker 1: But I'm a great respecter of fate and this is
20:28
Speaker 1: ultimately a family decision. I think everybody wants me to run,
20:31
Speaker 1: but they're gonna we're gonna have discussions about it. And
20:34
Speaker 1: I don't feel any any hurry one way or another
20:37
Speaker 1: to make that judgment today, tomorrow, or whenever, no matter
20:42
Speaker 1: what my predecessor does, ye early next year or well.
20:47
Speaker 1: I think my guess is I hope Jill and I
20:50
Speaker 1: get a little time to actually sneak away for a
20:55
Speaker 1: week around between Christmas and Thanksgiving, and my guess is
20:59
Speaker 1: to be early next year we make that judgment. But
21:03
Speaker 1: it might plan to do it now. I mean, but
21:05
Speaker 1: you know, Okay, so there is Joe Biden, my intentions
21:10
Speaker 1: that are run. Again, this is ultimately a family decision.
21:12
Speaker 1: I think everybody quote wants me to run. Now. Is
21:16
Speaker 1: that a blessing or a curse? Let's dive into that
21:18
Speaker 1: for a moment. I personally think it's a huge gift
21:21
Speaker 1: if Joe Biden runs for president. In a normal world,
21:24
Speaker 1: I would say it's a huge gift. I'll be honest
21:27
Speaker 1: with you right now. I have no idea in hell
21:31
Speaker 1: if this is a good thing or a bad thing.
21:33
Speaker 1: Now why say that? Because we're clearly not living in
21:36
Speaker 1: normal times. If you don't believe me, look at Fetterman.
21:40
Speaker 1: People in the Democratic Party are so dug in that
21:44
Speaker 1: they are willing to vote for someone that's clearly incapacitated
21:47
Speaker 1: more than Joe Biden is and actually given insane amount
21:51
Speaker 1: of money to him and get him elected in Pennsylvania.
21:54
Speaker 1: That's why I say, in normal times, I would think
21:58
Speaker 1: that Joe Biden would be an easy guy to beat.
22:00
Speaker 1: Now I have no idea, because the Democratic Party just
22:05
Speaker 1: wants to get someone elected regardless of what they do
22:08
Speaker 1: to the country, as long as that means that they
22:13
Speaker 1: regain power, that they keep their power. Joe Biden is
22:17
Speaker 1: also lying in his press conference about where we are
22:21
Speaker 1: as a country in our economy, and the Democratic Party,
22:24
Speaker 1: I'm sure it is thrilled to hear him say this,
22:26
Speaker 1: and the media is going to protect him. This also
22:28
Speaker 1: sounds like a campaign for twenty twenty fourth setup when
22:32
Speaker 1: he was talking about a recession. Please, there's a recession.
22:35
Speaker 1: So there's a lot of things we can do to
22:37
Speaker 1: affect the things that people need on a monthly basis,
22:41
Speaker 1: to reduce their inflation, their cost of living, and so.
22:46
Speaker 1: But I am optimistic because we continue to grow and
22:50
Speaker 1: at a rational pace. We are not anywhere near a
22:54
Speaker 1: recession right now in terms of the growth, but I
22:57
Speaker 1: think we can have what the most economists call the
23:00
Speaker 1: soft landing. I'm convinced that we're going to be able
23:03
Speaker 1: to gradually bring down prices so that they in fact
23:06
Speaker 1: end up with us not having to move into recession
23:09
Speaker 1: to be able to get control of inflation. Yeah, so
23:13
Speaker 1: there you go, no problem there, Right, We'll just lie
23:16
Speaker 1: and say we're nowhere near a recession. That's how he
23:20
Speaker 1: said it. He also said, we're going to quote restore
23:22
Speaker 1: the soul of the country, and it's starting to happen.
23:24
Speaker 1: So that's the opening line for vote for me. I'll
23:27
Speaker 1: restore the soul of the country. So I'm not going
23:30
Speaker 1: to change the direction I said. I ran for three reasons.
23:32
Speaker 1: I'm going to continue to stay. Were aiming to know,
23:35
Speaker 1: I fully understand the legitimate concerned that what I'm saying
23:40
Speaker 1: is wrong. Okay. One is that I said, we're going
23:44
Speaker 1: to restore the soul of the country, begin to treat
23:46
Speaker 1: each other with decency, honor, and integrity. And it's starting
23:50
Speaker 1: to happen. People. The conversations are becoming more normal, becoming
23:55
Speaker 1: more more how can I say it, decent? Second year.
24:02
Speaker 1: I love how he says we're going to make things decent.
24:05
Speaker 1: This is the same guy that said that the Republican
24:08
Speaker 1: Party was filled with domestic terrorists. Right. This is the
24:12
Speaker 1: guy that has been lying to you since day one.
24:15
Speaker 1: This is a guy telling you the economy's fine since
24:18
Speaker 1: day one. It's the guy that's been telling you that
24:21
Speaker 1: oil and gas prices were actually higher at five hours
24:25
Speaker 1: gown when he became president than what they are today,
24:28
Speaker 1: which is also a lie. And then he says, we're
24:30
Speaker 1: going to restore the soul of the country and it's
24:32
Speaker 1: starting to happen. What have you been doing the last
24:33
Speaker 1: two years? Then is my question? Now? Biden to reporters,
24:38
Speaker 1: he said, I've been given a list of ten people
24:40
Speaker 1: that I'm supposed to call on, and you're all supposed
24:42
Speaker 1: to ask me one question. So clearly, if you think
24:46
Speaker 1: he's you know, got you know, some sort of lifeline
24:48
Speaker 1: to you know, going back, turning back the clock to
24:51
Speaker 1: his youth, you'd be wrong. He's still clearly being controlled
24:54
Speaker 1: by those in the White House, who I guess are
24:57
Speaker 1: running this country that have been elected by no one.
25:00
Speaker 1: We just need to remember who the hell we are.
25:02
Speaker 1: We're the United States of America. The United States America
25:06
Speaker 1: is nothing beyond our capacity, and I'm pretty well convinced
25:10
Speaker 1: that we're going to be able to get a lot done. Now,
25:12
Speaker 1: I've been given a list of ten people that I'm
25:15
Speaker 1: supposed to call on, and you're all supposed to ask
25:18
Speaker 1: me one question. But I'm sure you'll ask me more,
25:20
Speaker 1: and so let me start off with a list I've
25:23
Speaker 1: been given. Zeke Miller, Associated Press. I mean, it's amazing.
25:28
Speaker 1: I got a list of people I'm supposed to call on.
25:30
Speaker 1: Here's my list of ten hand picked people. You got
25:33
Speaker 1: one question each. Now, there is a civil war that
25:37
Speaker 1: has taken place within the Republican Party right now. Okay,
25:42
Speaker 1: there's no doubt that this is happening. You need to
25:44
Speaker 1: understand what that means. The RNC chairwoman Rona McDaniel I
25:50
Speaker 1: said the wave, the wave did happen because we are
25:53
Speaker 1: waving goodbye to Speaker Nancy Pelosi. Now this is a
25:56
Speaker 1: legitimate line, But I think we can all agree that
25:59
Speaker 1: the Publicans did not have anywhere close to night that
26:02
Speaker 1: we should have had. With an incompetent president, a horrific economy,
26:07
Speaker 1: and gas prices through the room and crime through the roof,
26:10
Speaker 1: we should have had much bigger gains. The RNC defending
26:14
Speaker 1: their actions and their campaign strategy, and the chairman saying
26:18
Speaker 1: this last night, let's take a look at the right direction,
26:21
Speaker 1: wrong direction. Fox News voter analysis, seventy five percent said
26:25
Speaker 1: that the country was headed in the wrong in the
26:28
Speaker 1: wrong direction. So you might have seen Martis and last
26:31
Speaker 1: night talking about that, and he essentially was saying that,
26:34
Speaker 1: you know, when you have a number like this, the
26:37
Speaker 1: GOP needed to offer a more viable alternative and candidates
26:42
Speaker 1: that could back that up in bigger numbers, you know,
26:44
Speaker 1: I mean there was discussion that this was going to
26:47
Speaker 1: be a red wave, you know, for every text that
26:49
Speaker 1: I got today and I said, you know, I thought
26:50
Speaker 1: there was a red wave coming. And you're telling them
26:53
Speaker 1: that they won the Super Bowl. They might want to know,
26:56
Speaker 1: They might want to hear more than that. Rana, Listen,
26:59
Speaker 1: we never used the word red wave at the RNC
27:01
Speaker 1: because we knew the map at Trunk there were less
27:03
Speaker 1: competitive seats because of redistriarching, and we picked up fourteen
27:06
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty. And everybody forgets that. But Republican governors
27:10
Speaker 1: were overwhelmingly re elected last night because of what they
27:13
Speaker 1: did in the pandemic, because we did have a message.
27:16
Speaker 1: We kept our schools open, we kept our economies humming,
27:19
Speaker 1: and from Florida to Ohio to Iowa across the board,
27:23
Speaker 1: we didn't lose a single Republican governorship. And the wave
27:26
Speaker 1: did happen because we are waving goodbye to Speaker Nancy Pelosi,
27:32
Speaker 1: getting rid of Nancy Pelosi. That is a success. But
27:36
Speaker 1: when you go back to the sentiment of voters and
27:39
Speaker 1: how frustrate they were with the direction of the country,
27:42
Speaker 1: and you don't do more than what just happened, and
27:47
Speaker 1: you don't pick up more seats than what we just said.
27:49
Speaker 1: In the fact that we're having a conversation right now
27:51
Speaker 1: about who controls the Senate and we still haven't quote
27:54
Speaker 1: officially called the House yet, that is shocking. Even Joe
27:59
Speaker 1: Biden on the mid term said, it was a good
28:00
Speaker 1: day I think for democracy. Translationship was a really good
28:03
Speaker 1: day for the Socialist and the Democratic Party. We didn't
28:06
Speaker 1: give up near what we thought we were good afternoon. Well,
28:14
Speaker 1: we had an election yesterday and it was a good
28:19
Speaker 1: day I think for democracy, and I think it was
28:22
Speaker 1: a good day for America. You didn't have a little horse.
28:26
Speaker 1: Our democracy has been tested in recent years. But with
28:29
Speaker 1: their votes, the American people have spoken improven once again
28:34
Speaker 1: that democracy is who we are. The states across the
28:38
Speaker 1: country saw a record voter turnout, and the heart and
28:41
Speaker 1: soul of our democracy the voters, the poll workers, the
28:44
Speaker 1: election officials, they did their job and they fulfilled their
28:49
Speaker 1: duty and apparently without much interference at all, without any inference,
28:54
Speaker 1: it looks like. And that's a testament, I think to
28:56
Speaker 1: the American people. While we don't know all the results yet,
29:00
Speaker 1: at least I don't know them all yet, here's what
29:03
Speaker 1: we do know. While the press and the pundits are
29:06
Speaker 1: predicting a giant red wave, it didn't happen. And I
29:11
Speaker 1: know you were somewhat missed by my obsessing optimism. But
29:19
Speaker 1: I felt good through the whole process. I thought we
29:22
Speaker 1: were going to do fine. While any seat lost is painful,
29:25
Speaker 1: some good Democrats didn't win. The last night, Democrats had
29:28
Speaker 1: a strong night. Democrats had a strong night. When the
29:33
Speaker 1: President nightsit to America, comes out there and puts it
29:35
Speaker 1: that way, that tells you how much we bungle these
29:38
Speaker 1: mid terms. I'm honest. I'm not a cheerleader. I will
29:41
