• 0:01
  Speaker 1: Welcome.
• 0:01
  Speaker 2: It is Verdict with center, Ted Cruz, Ben Ferguson with
• 0:04
  Speaker 2: you live from the Republican National Convention, and we've.
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: Got an audience out there. I love it.
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: Senator, this is the first morning I have ever woken
• 0:17
  Speaker 2: up truly believing that Joe Biden is going to drop
• 0:22
  Speaker 2: out of this presidential race. I've never believed it was
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: possible before this morning. I want to get your initial
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: reaction to that.
• 0:31
  Speaker 3: Well, listen, if only someone could have predicted that before
• 0:33
  Speaker 3: this week, I know, right. So, for regular Verdict listeners,
• 0:37
  Speaker 3: you will recall that this podcast ten months ago, ten
• 0:42
  Speaker 3: months ago, we predicted that Joe Biden would drop out
• 0:45
  Speaker 3: of this race, that the Democrats would throw him out.
• 0:47
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 0:48
  Speaker 3: And we predicted ten months ago that he'd be replaced
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: by Michelle Obama.
• 0:51
  Speaker 4: Yes.
• 0:51
  Speaker 3: And at the time, the corporate media treated that prediction
• 0:55
  Speaker 3: as utter moon bat insanity, insanity like complex deletely nuts.
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: Do we want a prize for ten months ago? By
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: the way, I got to give you the brainchild of
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: it ten months ago.
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: I'll give you full credit. Do we get a prize
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: for that?
• 1:07
  Speaker 3: I think we certainly should get a prize, But look,
• 1:10
  Speaker 3: I think it's going to happen. I think it is
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: going to happen within the next week. And we have
• 1:16
  Speaker 3: seen we've seen the momentum building and building and building.
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: And look, I got to tell you, and you and
• 1:23
  Speaker 3: I have talked about this. I have mixed sentiments at
• 1:25
  Speaker 3: this convention. On one side, I am thrilled. I am
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: excited because the party is unified. It's unified at a
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: level I've never seen. I've been to a lot of con.
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: A lot of conventions. What was your first one?
• 1:38
  Speaker 3: Nineteen ninety two. I was at nineteen ninety two. I
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: had just graduated from college. I was twenty one years old.
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: Nineteen ninety two, was in Houston.
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: Oh, there you go.
• 1:47
  Speaker 4: And it was.
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: Actually it was the last public speech Ronald Reagan ever gave.
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: And actually just after the convention they announced he had Alzheimer's,
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: so it was his last public address.
• 1:57
  Speaker 4: And so for his speech, it was very cool.
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: Texas de Gation was in front because it was in Houston,
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: and they decided they wanted all the college kids down front.
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: They wanted to show that the Republican Party is young
• 2:08
  Speaker 3: and vibrant. So all the college kids we were in
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: that we were put up front. So I was in
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: the front row for Reagan's last public address.
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: I'm jealous.
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: And here's something really cool. At the time, Heidi was
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: in college. She was at Claremont McKenna. She was the
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: president of the College Republicans at Claremont McKenna out in California.
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: She was at the convention and she was in the
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: front row with the Texas delegation.
• 2:29
  Speaker 4: And we didn't meet. I said, did you meet? No,
• 2:31
  Speaker 4: we didn't meet until eight years later. Wow.
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: But every time I see photographs of that convention, I
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: like scan them to see if someone somehow got a
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: picture of Heidi and me standing near each other, because
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: we were very close to each other. So the point is,
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: I've been to a lot of these I have never
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: seen unity like this last couple of days. As you know,
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: I've done a ton of media interviews, and you listen
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: to the reporters.
• 2:52
  Speaker 4: They're losing their minds. They're so unhappy.
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: They're like, you guys are so difide yea, and they're furious,
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: like it.
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: We know not how to screw things up well in
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: the Republican Party. When it comes to unity, this does
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: feel very different.
• 3:06
  Speaker 4: Everyone is on the same page.
• 3:08
  Speaker 3: Everyone is united, Everyone wants Trump to win in November.
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: Everyone wants to win the Senate, everyone wants to win
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: the House. But you and I have also talked about this.
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: I'll tell you what I'm scared about. I'm scared about overconfidence.
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: I couldn't agree more.
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: Look, there is an aspect of this convention that feels
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: like a celebration, and I get that. But my message
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: to everyone at this convention is it is not time
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: to celebrate. We'll celebrate after election day. We need work
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: to do.
• 3:36
  Speaker 4: We have a.
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: Job in front of us, and listen, I think we're
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: going to come out of this convention. I think we'll
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: see a bounce in the polls, and then I think
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: within days or even hours, the Democrats are going to
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: announce Joe Biden is no longer our nominee. They're going
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: to pull them off, and the media is going to
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: reset the entire race. They're going to do everything they
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: can to take away the momentum from this convention, and
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: so nobody here should get over confident because this becomes very,
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: very dangerous, and the media is going to do everything
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: they can to say, well, Joe was old, but now
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: we're going to replace them with someone young. Everything solved,
• 4:14
  Speaker 3: Move on forward.
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: Let me tell you about Patriot Mobile.
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: If you have a cell phone, and probably nine nine
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: percent of you do, you may not know that when
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: you pay your monthly bill every month the big mobile,
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: that you are giving big donations by default to democratic causes,
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: candidates and organizations, including organizations like Planned Parenthood. That is
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: why Patriot Mobile was started about ten well over ten
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: years ago, more than a decade ago. Patriot Mobile is
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: America's only Christian conservative wireless provider. And when I say only,
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: I mean it now. Patriot Mobile is incredible because they
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: actually take about five percent of your bill every month,
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: that no extra cost to you, and they give it
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: back to conservative causes and organizations. Yes, that support your
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: First and your Second Amendment rights, support the free speech,
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: support this sanctity of life. And that is why I
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: love Patriot Mobile. Now I switch to Patriot Mobile, and look,
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: there's a lot of people that say, I don't know
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: about switching.
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: I need my great coverage I have. Now.
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: Look in twenty twenty four, you're using the same exact
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: cell towers. When you switch to Patriot Mobile, you're gonna
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: get the same coverage that you're used to and when
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: you pay your bill every month, you know you're setting
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: up for the values that you believe in. Switching has
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: also never been easier. You don't even have to go
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: to a store. You just have to call them and
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: they do everything over the phone.
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: It is easy.
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: They have one hundred percent Uspace Customer Service team because
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: they believe in actually employing great Americans, and they make
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: switching that much easier. So keep your same cell number
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: you have now, keep your phone you've got, or upgrade.
• 5:53

• 5:54

• 6:23
  Speaker 2: the obituary earlier today MSNBC.
• 6:26
  Speaker 4: It helps because he's been dead for.
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: Three very true.
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: They said on I want you to listen to this
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: clip because it's an interesting clip.
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: And they said on MSNBC they're so ready to be
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: done with him.
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: They said, Joe Biden, obviously as COVID, and they said
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: he is quote self isolating both medically.
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: And politically. Listen, get up to dat though, with what's
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: happened happening in Milwaukee. Also what you're hearing from the
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: Biden campaign.
• 6:59
  Speaker 5: Yeah, we'll start with the Biden campaign, Joe, and exactly
• 7:02
  Speaker 5: right about the sequencing. So on your air, I talked
• 7:06
  Speaker 5: about the fact three weeks ago that there was an
• 7:09
  Speaker 5: effort among top Democrats to give President Biden the chance
• 7:13
  Speaker 5: to walk off the stage. They said, he is proud,
• 7:16
  Speaker 5: he's stubborn, we love him, we appreciate him. We want
• 7:20
  Speaker 5: to give him the chance to walk off the stage.
• 7:24
  Speaker 5: President Biden, in the view of these top Democrats, did
• 7:26
  Speaker 5: not take the hint and the way that one top Democrat,
• 7:31
  Speaker 5: someone very close to the West wing, put it to
• 7:34
  Speaker 5: me Sunday as I sat here on the floor of
• 7:37
  Speaker 5: this hall with my laptop doing reporting at the Republican
• 7:40
  Speaker 5: Convention about what was happening in the Democratic Party. They said,
• 7:44
  Speaker 5: we don't want to humiliate him.
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: That was the effort.
• 7:49
  Speaker 5: Then we saw this sequence yesterday and is my brilliant
• 7:54
  Speaker 5: colleague Zach Bossu puts it at the top of Axios
• 7:57
  Speaker 5: this morning. President Biden is now self isolating, both medically
• 8:03
  Speaker 5: and politically.
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: I mean, that's an obituary to his entire career. And
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: he says, what we've seen. Let's talk about what we've seen.
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: Every aspect of the Democratic Party has now run him entirely,
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: turn on him completely. Ye, you've got the Clintons. They're
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: saying you're done. The Obama's saying you're done, Schumer saying
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: you're done, Pelosi saying you're done, Jeffreys saying you're done,
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: Holly media saying you're done, the donors saying you're done,
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: Hollywood saying you're done.
• 8:31
  Speaker 4: Everyone, How the.
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: Hell does this guy? He won't survive this.
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: He doesn't. And look, you and I we predicted this
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: ten months ago. And then the night of the debate.
• 8:43
  Speaker 3: You and I did a podcast the night of the debate,
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: immediately after the debate, and I said that night, Biden's done.
• 8:50
  Speaker 3: He is no longer the nominee. He will be chased out.
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: It'll take a few weeks for it to happen. But
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: this is what's going to happen. Why, because the Democrats
• 8:58
  Speaker 3: are terrified they're going to lose. Now, it's worth noting
• 9:01
  Speaker 3: none of them care that we have a commander in
• 9:04
  Speaker 3: chief right now with dementia. Has a single Democrat said, well, gosh,
• 9:08
  Speaker 3: if he's so mentally diminished, he needs to resign as president.
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: Nobody said that, not a single Democrat. Apparently they're fine
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: with him having his finger on the button. Now, mind you,
• 9:18
  Speaker 3: there comes a point where you take the keys away
• 9:20
  Speaker 3: from grandpa. Yes, but it's even scary if the keys
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: are attached to ICBMs. Yes, but the Democrats aren't doing that.
• 9:27
  Speaker 3: The only reason they're bailing on Biden is because the
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: American people in the debate saw that and said, holy crap,
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: that man can't tie his shoes, and we're going to lose.
• 9:37
  Speaker 3: And they're suddenly protecting their rear end. Now, when you
• 9:40
  Speaker 3: and I have been predicting it, people have asked, how
• 9:42
  Speaker 3: does this happen? And you go back, go back to
• 9:44
  Speaker 3: Richard Nixon. Yep, when Richard Nixon stepped down, Listen, he
• 9:48
  Speaker 3: didn't do so because he just said, well, gosh, I
• 9:50
  Speaker 3: want to leave. He did so because a half dozen
• 9:53
  Speaker 3: old bulls from the Senate, old Republican senators went to
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: the Oval office and they said, mister President, you're done,
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: and he resisted. And let's be clear, they didn't just
• 10:03
  Speaker 3: rely on persuasion.
• 10:06
  Speaker 4: They said, if you don't.
• 10:07
  Speaker 3: Resign, the House is going to impeach you and we're
• 10:10
  Speaker 3: going to convict you.
• 10:11
  Speaker 4: So you will be removed.
• 10:12
  Speaker 3: And your only choice is do you want to do
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: it voluntarily or do you want us to throw yeut
• 10:17
  Speaker 3: of office? And that ultimately led to the president.
• 10:20
  Speaker 4: The president.
• 10:22
  Speaker 3: Now, in this situation, we've seen the equivalent of the
• 10:27
  Speaker 3: old bulls, the gray beards of the Democrat Party. All
• 10:30
  Speaker 3: of the constituent groups, one after the other after the other,
• 10:32
  Speaker 3: go to Biden say get out and get out, get out.
• 10:34
  Speaker 3: They initially did so quietly, quietly, didn't work. They then
• 10:38
  Speaker 3: have done so more and more publicly. And by the way,
• 10:41
  Speaker 3: if Biden were to dig in, if he were to say,
• 10:43
  Speaker 3: I don't care, I'm not going, they have a hammer.
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: The twenty fifth Amendment. I understand how the twenty fifth
• 10:50
  Speaker 3: Amendment works. All it takes is the vice president and
• 10:54
  Speaker 3: a majority of the cabinet and the vice president of
• 10:57
  Speaker 3: the majority of the cabinet. If they sign a letter
• 11:00
  Speaker 3: declaring that the president is unfit for office.
• 11:02
  Speaker 4: He is removed from office instantly. Instantly.
• 11:05
  Speaker 3: Now he can file a letter saying no, I am
• 11:07
  Speaker 3: fit for office, and then it goes to Congress and
• 11:09
  Speaker 3: it takes two thirds of both houses. But you know what,
• 11:11
  Speaker 3: Pelosi's turned on him, Schumer's turned on him. The Democrats
• 11:14
  Speaker 3: are terrified.
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: So they would accept it, is what you're saying. Yes,
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: So let me ask you this. If he doesn't drop out,
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: it's not.
• 11:22
  Speaker 4: Going to come to that. He's going to.
• 11:24
  Speaker 3: I don't think it's going to come to that. But
• 11:26
  Speaker 3: that's the hammer that they don't want to threaten that.
• 11:29
  Speaker 3: And and look the whole line about about dignity. They
• 11:33
  Speaker 3: don't want to have to threaten that. But he is
• 11:35
  Speaker 3: gone and so and in my view, there's lots of
• 11:39
  Speaker 3: speculation about about who the replacement will be. I believe
• 11:42
  Speaker 3: the replacement will be one of two human beings. It
• 11:46
  Speaker 3: will either be Kamala Harris or it will be Michelle Obama.
• 11:50
  Speaker 3: Those are the only two human beings I believe that
• 11:53
  Speaker 3: will be at the top of the take.
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: And if Kamala gets it, it's only because of logistics.
• 11:57
  Speaker 3: So actually, I think the logistics argument is completely overstated.
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: So explain that. Let's let's explain the people who just
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: exchargument the argument that the argument is we hold hold on.
• 12:05
  Speaker 3: Before we do that, let me explain why it's Kamala
• 12:08
  Speaker 3: or or Michelle Kamala is next in line. Now, a
• 12:13
  Speaker 3: lot of Democrats recognize that Kamala has limitations as a candidate,
• 12:17
  Speaker 3: and so there's some Democrats that are like, oh, what
• 12:19
  Speaker 3: are we doing? So you people hear people talking about
• 12:21
  Speaker 3: Gavin Newsom. I think the chances that Gavin Newsom is
• 12:24
  Speaker 3: at the top of the ticket are zero point zero
• 12:26
  Speaker 3: zero percent. And the reason why it's not complicated the
• 12:30
  Speaker 3: Democrat Party is structurally unable to push aside an African
• 12:36
  Speaker 3: American woman and replace her with a white guy like
• 12:39
  Speaker 3: their party would implode. They would I mean, you talk
• 12:42
  Speaker 3: about civil wars, they would have a civil war with muskets,
• 12:44
  Speaker 3: like a literal civil war. They can't do that, which
• 12:48
  Speaker 3: means all of the names bannied about, none of them.
• 12:51
  Speaker 3: You could have a primary and someone defeats her, but
• 12:54
  Speaker 3: if it's annoying in a successor, I don't believe their
• 12:57
  Speaker 3: party can do that, which means the only human being
• 13:00
  Speaker 3: on planet Earth who could push Kamala side is Michelle Obama.
• 13:03
  Speaker 3: Michelle Obama's obviously also an African American woman, but an
• 13:06
  Speaker 3: African American woman with much higher approval ratings. And I
• 13:09
  Speaker 3: think a much more dangerous candidate. Ten months ago, I said,
• 13:13
  Speaker 3: and I still say it today. If I were a Democrat,
• 13:15
  Speaker 3: I would be all in. I would be begging Michelle
• 13:20
  Speaker 3: because I got to tell you, look, sitting here as
• 13:22
  Speaker 3: a Republican who desperately wants us to win in November.
• 13:25
  Speaker 3: That scares the living daylights out of me. If Michelle
• 13:27
  Speaker 3: is the nominee, it is dangerous and everyone here better
• 13:31
  Speaker 3: understand we're in for the fight of our life if
• 13:33
  Speaker 3: it's her. Now, what is interesting is how much the
• 13:36
  Speaker 3: Democrat Party is circling the wagons behind Kamala.
• 13:39
  Speaker 4: And I think Kamala has risen.
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: Is that because it's easier logistically, That's where I asked
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: that question, Because the money's there, the campaigns there, it's seamless.
• 13:49
  Speaker 4: It's just seamless, bultedash, complete nonsense.
• 13:52
  Speaker 3: So people are saying, oh, well, Kamala is the only
• 13:55
  Speaker 3: one who can access the money. Biden Harris's raise, and
• 13:57
  Speaker 3: so that's why they'll do it. What uttered look imagine
• 14:02
  Speaker 3: because that's what everybody's saying, but everyone's saying it. Anyone's
• 14:06
  Speaker 3: meaning true. That doesn't actually hasn't run a presidential campaign.
• 14:09
  Speaker 3: It doesn't know how things operate. It's true Michelle Obama
• 14:13
  Speaker 3: can't access the money, and the Biden coffers what happens
• 14:17
  Speaker 3: the day Michelle Obama's announces the nominee.
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: I'm assuming they would start the campaign, start raising money.
• 14:23
  Speaker 3: And every Democrat, every grassroots Democrat, every activist, every donor
• 14:28
  Speaker 3: is suddenly goes from the despondency, depression, despair.
• 14:32
  Speaker 4: They're resigned.
• 14:33
  Speaker 3: Crap, we're gonna lose, crap's gonna Trump's gonna be president.
• 14:36
  Speaker 3: We're gonna lose the Senate, We're gonna lose the House.
• 14:38
  Speaker 3: They're in misery, and they wake up and hallelujah, hallelujah.
• 14:41
  Speaker 3: Michelle Obama is riding in to save the day and.
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: A billion dollars of free press, and.
• 14:46
  Speaker 3: They would raise a billion dollars within three weeks. Every
• 14:51
  Speaker 3: Democrat billionaire goes, holy crap, we've saved the world. Get
• 14:55
  Speaker 3: me my checkbook, and we're talking Michelle would raise it
• 14:58
  Speaker 3: in one hundred million dollar chunk.
• 15:00
  Speaker 4: There is no money problem.
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: Plus all the free media.
• 15:04
  Speaker 3: And the free media, so it is massive. The only
• 15:07
  Speaker 3: thing that can save us from that is if Michelle
• 15:09
  Speaker 3: says no. And I am praying. Look, Michelle, you and
• 15:13
  Speaker 3: I are not close. To put it mildly, but I
• 15:16
  Speaker 3: just want to say, man, you got a good life.
• 15:19
  Speaker 3: Ye you're kicking back. Martha's vineyard is really nice in
• 15:22
  Speaker 3: the summertime. I've told I've never been there, but I'm
• 15:24
  Speaker 3: told it's nice. Like you're kicking back, You're sipping charnay,
• 15:30
  Speaker 3: You're on a yacht, you're on a private jet, You're
• 15:32
  Speaker 3: paling around with movie stars.
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: Loves you.
• 15:36
  Speaker 4: You don't want to deal with the pesky.
• 15:39
  Speaker 3: You don't want to deal with us, you don't want
• 15:41
  Speaker 3: to deal with politicians.
• 15:42
  Speaker 4: You can't stand us.
• 15:43
  Speaker 3: So just live your life as a movie star and
• 15:47
  Speaker 3: a celebrity and don't bother with the gritty mess.
• 15:50
  Speaker 4: Now. I don't know if that's persuasive to her or not.
• 15:54
  Speaker 4: I will tell you.
• 15:54
  Speaker 3: I've heard people say confidently Michelle doesn't want it.
• 16:00
  Speaker 4: Maybe, And here's why I say maybe.
• 16:04
  Speaker 3: When they say Michelle doesn't want if they say well
• 16:06
  Speaker 3: she said she didn't want it. Okay, Well, you know politicians,
• 16:08
  Speaker 3: you could always believe what they say, like when they
• 16:10
  Speaker 3: say they don't want something, it's always telling the truth.
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: But they I don't want it. I don't want it,
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: but I do get to be on Air Force one
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: when I want it.
• 16:17
  Speaker 3: So they base it on the fact that Michelle did
• 16:20
  Speaker 3: not run in twenty twenty. Well, that's true, but it
• 16:23
  Speaker 3: is a very different decision to say, do I want
• 16:26
  Speaker 3: to run for president? Do I want to spend two
• 16:28
  Speaker 3: years going through the muck? Do I want to come Mary?
• 16:31
  Speaker 3: Do I want to go through every county in Iowa?
• 16:33
  Speaker 3: Do I want to go all over New Hampshire? Do
• 16:34
  Speaker 3: I want to go all over South Carolina? Do I
• 16:36
  Speaker 3: want to raise money nonstuff? Do I want to spend
• 16:38
  Speaker 3: two years of my life? It is all comes to me.
• 16:42
  Speaker 3: And by the way, Michelle knows it.
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah, She's witnessed it twice.
• 16:44
  Speaker 4: She went side by side with Baroxo.
• 16:46
  Speaker 3: She knows exactly what's entitled entailed in that.
• 16:50
  Speaker 4: That is a very different decision.
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: Than at three months two and a half months, co.
• 16:56
  Speaker 3: Michelle, we will have a coronation. Everyone will sing your Hoseanna.
• 17:00
  Speaker 3: We will hand you the nomination. You'd give one speech,
• 17:04
  Speaker 3: you'd do a debate, you do a couple of rallies,
• 17:06
  Speaker 3: and suddenly you're President of the United States. Yeah, there
• 17:09
  Speaker 3: are very few people on planet Earth that if you
• 17:11
  Speaker 3: walked up and said, okay, we'll make you president right now?
• 17:15
  Speaker 3: All right, Right, we got a studio audience here. How
• 17:18
  Speaker 3: many of you would say yes if we offered you
• 17:20
  Speaker 3: would you like to be president?
• 17:21
  Speaker 4: Would you say yes?
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: If they were okay, right now, we're getting nods, there's like, yeah, okay,
• 17:27
  Speaker 3: one guy said no, One guy said no, right, one
• 17:29
  Speaker 3: guy said no.
• 17:30
  Speaker 4: Out everyone here.
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: He lives at Martha's vineyard. By the way, I guarantee, right,
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: all right, guarantee.
• 17:35
  Speaker 3: It's an unusual cat that would say no to being
• 17:39
  Speaker 3: offered the coronation.
• 17:40
  Speaker 4: So Michelle scares me.
• 17:42
  Speaker 3: But I want to say something else to Republicans at
• 17:44
  Speaker 3: this convention and across the country.
• 17:46
  Speaker 4: Don't get over confident with Kamala.
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a great point.
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: I got to ask you about the twenty fifth in
• 17:52
  Speaker 2: a moment, because there's a lot of people asking questions
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: about that.
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: But let me tell you real quick about my friends
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: over chalk.
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: As I mentioned when you get older, you start to
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: get that fatigue that sets in and you feel like
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: you don't have that energy to go work out.
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: Maybe you started getting weight.
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: Well, I was one of those, and I'm now down
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: like over sixty pounds sixty three sixty four pounds since
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: last August.
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: And I started taking Chalk.

• 18:26
  Speaker 2: can tell you it works. Men's testosterum levels are off
• 18:29

  Speaker 2: it too. Everything that you just went through. The Democratic
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: Party is in disarray. They're depressed, the donors are depressed.
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: They feel like they're about to lose. I think anybody
• 19:51
  Speaker 2: that gets this opportunity, that could be Kamala Harris, will
• 19:54
  Speaker 2: reinvigorate the checkbooks, or reinvigorate the party, or reinvigorate every
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: candidate that's down balloted because it's a reset button. I
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: think the bump that we get out of this convention
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: could have instantly disappear with Kamala Harris because of all
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: of the news you're talking about. And I think the
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: amount of money she'll raise. But I also think the
• 20:13
  Speaker 2: thing is what Kamla is. She will also get a
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: billion dollars of free media. The media will obsess over her.
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: It changes the race completely.
• 20:22
  Speaker 4: Do you agree, I absolutely do what I will say.
• 20:25
  Speaker 3: Look, Republicans, people at this convention think rightly that Kamala
• 20:30
  Speaker 3: is a train wreck, that she's been an absolute disaster.
• 20:33
  Speaker 3: She's the borders are except she only went to the
• 20:35
  Speaker 3: border once as vice president. She and act even go
• 20:37
  Speaker 3: to the Rio Grand Valley. Everything she's touched had been
• 20:39
  Speaker 3: a disaster. She got clobber in the Democratic primary. There
• 20:42
  Speaker 3: are lots of reasons to say Kamala is not very
• 20:44
  Speaker 3: good at this, but you made the exact right point.
• 20:49
  Speaker 3: Imagine it with a billion dollars of free media, with
• 20:53
  Speaker 3: every media outlet hyperventilating saying, oh, she's a combination of
• 20:58
  Speaker 3: Mother Teresa, Oprah.
• 21:01
  Speaker 4: And Gandhi all combined.
• 21:02
  Speaker 3: Like you will see reporters running after her, throwing their
• 21:07
  Speaker 3: panties at her.
• 21:08
  Speaker 4: And by the way, that's just the men.
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: That those men, let's be clear about that, those are
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: identify as men.
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: Right, you never know and nowadays.
• 21:21
  Speaker 4: And it is a dangerous thing.
• 21:22
  Speaker 3: So listen, I think we beat Kamala, but everyone here
• 21:26
  Speaker 3: needs to be aware. We're not just going against Kamala
• 21:29
  Speaker 3: We're going against every corporate media outlet. We're going against
• 21:32
  Speaker 3: all of Hollywood. We're going against big tech, which will
• 21:35
  Speaker 3: elevate everything. They will do everything they can, and their
• 21:39
  Speaker 3: narrative will be you know what they'll say, Biden was
• 21:43
  Speaker 3: a great historic president, but he got too old.
• 21:45
  Speaker 4: We all get too old, and we fixed that problem. Now.
• 21:48
  Speaker 3: Now Kamalas is young and vigorous. She smiles a lot,
• 21:52
  Speaker 3: she laughs, and it drives us crazy. Yes, get ready
• 21:55
  Speaker 3: to hear that last so often.
• 21:58
  Speaker 4: You're going you're.
• 21:58
  Speaker 3: Gonna wake up at nights screaming and hearing the cackle.
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: They also believe that she's going to bring women together
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: for two reasons. One, they're going to make Roe v.
• 22:07
  Speaker 2: Wade an issue again and try to really bring feminists
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: and women out on that.
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: That'll be a core point of her campaign.
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: But two, just the overall history of women and breaking
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: the glass ceiling. She also is a minority. Yeah, so
• 22:23
  Speaker 2: you would have a minority female who would make history
• 22:27
  Speaker 2: while in re engaging women voters in the Democratic Party
• 22:32
  Speaker 2: and women that maybe are swing voters.
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: I think that's actually very, very dangerous.
• 22:37
  Speaker 3: It is exceptionally dangerous. And let's complicate it a little more.
• 22:41
  Speaker 3: If it is Michelle, if it is Kamala, who's the VP.
• 22:45
  Speaker 2: It's a great question. I honestly have not thought about
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: it much. I say that here's why. I'm like, do
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: you pick a man? Do you pick another woman? Do
• 22:54
  Speaker 2: you pick someone that's young? Do you pick someone that's
• 22:57
  Speaker 2: older that's not a threat to you if you don't
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: do well and for you? I mean, I've been so
• 23:01
  Speaker 2: focused on Joe Biden, and I'm going who's on the
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: short list.
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: I don't know if they would even know who their
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: short is yet. Who do you have?
• 23:08
  Speaker 4: Yeah, So I have a couple of thoughts.
• 23:10
  Speaker 3: One possibility that is a real possibility is Gavin Newsom.
• 23:14
  Speaker 3: I don't believe Gavin Newsom could be at the top
• 23:16
  Speaker 3: of the ticket, but I believe he would be a
• 23:18
  Speaker 3: very credible undraiser VP choice for either either Michelle or
• 23:23
  Speaker 3: Comma that that that is a VP choice. And mostly
• 23:26
  Speaker 3: Newsome comes with with with just a crap ton of
• 23:29
  Speaker 3: California monds.
• 23:30
  Speaker 4: And he's a good looking guy, he's smooth, he's slick.
• 23:33
  Speaker 3: Gavin Newsom reminds me of the comment about Bill Clinton,
• 23:37
  Speaker 3: he's an unusually good liar, and in Democrat politics, that
• 23:41
  Speaker 3: is a really good tribute. He is a gifted and
• 23:45
  Speaker 3: talented liar. Now I've also pointed out I consider Gavin Newsom.
• 23:49
  Speaker 4: I I want to actually name him.
• 23:51
  Speaker 3: Texas Realator of the Year because nobody has sold more
• 23:55
  Speaker 3: homes in the State of Thames than Gavin Newso, I
• 23:58
  Speaker 3: mean he could sell homes every we're in Texas. But
• 24:01
  Speaker 3: I'll also point out, all right, so Political Playbook, which
• 24:05
  Speaker 3: is every political junkie reads the playbook. It's kind of
• 24:09
  Speaker 3: a combination of news and gossip from politics. So Playbook
• 24:15
  Speaker 3: right now writes about a polling memo circulating among Democratic
• 24:18
  Speaker 3: Party officials that argues the best chance to defeat Trump
• 24:22
  Speaker 3: is with a new nominee independent of the administration, in
• 24:26
  Speaker 3: other words, not Kamala Harris. And look, we get that
• 24:28
  Speaker 3: Kamala in an open field is not the most attractive
• 24:33
  Speaker 3: political candidate for the Democrats, but I think they're locked
• 24:36
  Speaker 3: into her unless Michelle is doing it. But what's interesting
• 24:39
  Speaker 3: is what this memo argues. And it says based on
• 24:43
  Speaker 3: polling of who does well against Trump, it says the
• 24:46
  Speaker 3: strongest candidates. So this is polling for their presidential nominee,
• 24:50
  Speaker 3: but it says the strongest potential candidates are, in alphabetical order,
• 24:54
  Speaker 3: Arizona Senator Mark Kelly, Maryland Governor Wes Moore, Pennsylvania go
• 25:00
  Speaker 3: Josh Shapiro, and Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer.
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: That's the one that keeps coming in my mind. A
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: double women woman ticket.
• 25:08
  Speaker 3: Look, that is certainly a possibility, and they're different philosophies
• 25:12
  Speaker 3: on vps. Sometimes a president picks a VP that is different,
• 25:16
  Speaker 3: that that is markedly different.
• 25:18
  Speaker 4: Think JFK picking LBJ.
• 25:20
  Speaker 3: You picked kind of totally different branches of the party
• 25:23
  Speaker 3: to unifif EI them. Think Reagan picking Bush. That that
• 25:27
  Speaker 3: that is one way to do it. Other times a
• 25:31
  Speaker 3: nominee reinforces the strength of a candidate, and think Bill
• 25:35
  Speaker 3: Clinton picking Al Gore. We're both young, relatively conservative Southern Democrats,
• 25:40
  Speaker 3: kind of doubling down. This is our message. I think
• 25:43
  Speaker 3: there is a chance they do that. But my guess
• 25:46
  Speaker 3: is I think the Democrats are less likely to pick
• 25:49
  Speaker 3: two women. I don't know this, but but I think
• 25:53
  Speaker 3: as I look at it, I would.
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: Set to bet tonight you go with Gavin Newsom.
• 25:59
  Speaker 3: Or Josh Shapiro, and Josh Shapiro is a they don't know,
• 26:03
  Speaker 3: Okay Shapiro, Josh Shapiro.
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: The audience says, Been Shapiro, not Josh Shapiro.
• 26:07
  Speaker 3: They will not pick Been Shapiro, although, boy, that would
• 26:10
  Speaker 3: be fun. Can Shapiro? Now that's that's that's a unity
• 26:14
  Speaker 3: ticket right there. Josh Shapiro is the governor of Pennsylvania.
• 26:18
  Speaker 3: He used to be the Attorney General of Pennsylvania. He
• 26:20
  Speaker 3: is widely perceived as a moderate Democrat. He's not very moderate,
• 26:24
  Speaker 3: but he's widely perceived as such. He's what passes for
• 26:27
  Speaker 3: a moderate in today's Democrat party. Now, look, Pennsylvania is
• 26:32
  Speaker 3: a state both sides view as very close to must win.
• 26:37
  Speaker 3: There are paths to getting to two hundred and seventy
• 26:39
  Speaker 3: electoral votes without Pennsylvania, but not many. Pennsylvania is probably
• 26:43
  Speaker 3: the single most contested UH swing state in this election.
• 26:47
  Speaker 3: Josh Shapiro is a popular governor, yep. And a popular governor, and.
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: Governors you will in that position.
• 26:53
  Speaker 4: Look it.
• 26:55
  Speaker 3: I think Shapiro would be dangerous. I'd be surprised if
• 27:00
  Speaker 3: she picked him. But I'll tell you Mark Kelly would
• 27:02
  Speaker 3: be a very dangerous candidate. I know Mark Well. Mark
• 27:06
  Speaker 3: is Look, he's a Navy veteran, he's a former astronaut.
• 27:09
  Speaker 3: He's a short, muscular, bald guy. And look, it's very
• 27:14
  Speaker 3: hard to call Mark Kelly a wuss. Yeah, Like he
• 27:20
  Speaker 3: seems that there's a reason that he has won decisively
• 27:23
  Speaker 3: at Arizona. He's also an affable guy, so he seems moderate,
• 27:29
  Speaker 3: he seems reasonable. His voting record is terrible, but he
• 27:33
  Speaker 3: comes across as very He comes across like he could
• 27:36
  Speaker 3: be a Republican.
• 27:37
  Speaker 4: So I could see.
• 27:39
  Speaker 3: I doubt Mark Kelly would be the nominee, but I
• 27:41
  Speaker 3: could see him being in the mix.
• 27:43
  Speaker 4: So I would.
• 27:43
  Speaker 3: Probably say Michelle slash Kamala, and I'd probably give Kamala
• 27:48
  Speaker 3: the edge right now. Part of that may be just
• 27:52
  Speaker 3: wishful thinking. I wanted to be Kamala, not Michelle. And
• 27:56
  Speaker 3: in terms of the VPS, I would say Shapiro, Newsome,
• 28:02
  Speaker 3: Kelly Whitmer.
• 28:04
  Speaker 2: I want to remind you about what's going on in Israel.
• 28:08
  Speaker 2: The people in Israel right now still very much desperately
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: need your help. They are absolutely under attack, this time
• 28:15
  Speaker 2: with a massive rocket attack that just came in from HESBLA.
• 28:19
  Speaker 2: Since October the seventh, attacks on Israel have increased, with
• 28:22
  Speaker 2: Iran and its proxies launching attack after attack, hundreds and
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: hundreds of drones and missiles. Israel and the Israeli people
• 28:31
  Speaker 2: are living with the harsh reality of terror every day,
• 28:34
  Speaker 2: and the need right now is bomb shelters. The International
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: Fellowship of Christians and Jews is on the ground right
• 28:40
  Speaker 2: now addressing all the urgent needs. And that's why I
• 28:44
  Speaker 2: want you to partner with IFCJ today. While praying for
• 28:48
  Speaker 2: the best, IFCJ is also preparing for the worst by
• 28:51
  Speaker 2: packing emergency bomb shelter kits that can be delivered immediately
• 28:55
  Speaker 2: to those in desperate need. And your life saving donation
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: today will help assemble and play these kits with enough
• 29:01
  Speaker 2: food and life saving emergency supplies for twenty people huddled
• 29:05
  Speaker 2: in a bomb shelter. The cost to put together and
• 29:08
  Speaker 2: distribute these kits is just two hundred and ninety dollars
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: and your gift will help save lives. And thanks to
• 29:15
  Speaker 2: a matching challenge from a generous ifc supporter, your gift
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: will be doubled in impact to help provide twice the support. Now,
• 29:24
  Speaker 2: all you have to do is call them triple eight
• 29:27
  Speaker 2: for eight eight IFCJ. That's eight eight eight four eight
• 29:32
  Speaker 2: eight IFCJ eight A eight for eight eight IFCJ. You
• 29:37
  Speaker 2: can also go online to support IFCJ dot org to
• 29:42
  Speaker 2: give that's one word, support IFCJ dot org to stand
• 29:47
  Speaker 2: with the people in Israel. Two final questions A do
• 29:52
  Speaker 2: they delay the convention? Number one?
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: And two?
• 29:57
  Speaker 2: If they delay the convention, will he step down at
• 30:01
  Speaker 2: the convention and then have that be the media or
• 30:05
  Speaker 2: does it come out before the convention?
• 30:07
  Speaker 3: All right, so the appellate lawyer and maybe has has
• 30:09
  Speaker 3: to say, I love that you asked A and two.
• 30:11
  Speaker 4: Yeah, like that's that. That's just kind of a fun outline.
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: You're welcome.
• 30:17
  Speaker 2: Just want just want to mess with you every once
• 30:19
  Speaker 2: while see if you're selling your game, right af B
• 30:21
  Speaker 2: Is that better.
• 30:22
  Speaker 4: That that is?
• 30:23
  Speaker 3: I like Roman numbers and outlines and and Z. But
• 30:26
  Speaker 3: but I'm not going to tell you I love ven diagrams.
• 30:28
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna leave that to say ven diagrams make make
• 30:33
  Speaker 3: my my cold cruel heart go pitter pat. Look, uh,
• 30:41
  Speaker 3: I don't think they delay the convention. They might, but
• 30:43
  Speaker 3: I doubt it, and they don't. Wait, I think this
• 30:46
  Speaker 3: happens within the next week. I think this could easily
• 30:49
  Speaker 3: happen this weekend. And and frankly, look, the Democrats are
• 30:52
  Speaker 3: smart by delaying till after this convention. This convention kill
• 30:56
  Speaker 3: them a minute has been phenomenal, and and the media
• 31:00
  Speaker 3: will treat whoever parachutes in the media will treat it
• 31:04
  Speaker 3: as a brand new race, ignore anything that happened before.
• 31:08
  Speaker 3: We're brand new, starting over, and so I think they
• 31:10
  Speaker 3: want to get on with that quickly. So my prediction,
• 31:14
  Speaker 3: by the way, if you want to think about momentous
• 31:18
  Speaker 3: and historic weeks in politics, on Saturday, the forward president
• 31:24
  Speaker 3: of the United States was shot, the first presidential assassination
• 31:28
  Speaker 3: attempts since nineteen eighty one. Immediately thereafter, we've had an
• 31:34
  Speaker 3: incredibly successful convention, We've had a vice presidential nominee named,
• 31:39
  Speaker 3: and it could be within a week of that, because
• 31:42
  Speaker 3: I could easily see it being this weekend. Joe Biden
• 31:46
  Speaker 3: is off the ballot, and we have a new Democrat nominee,
• 31:49
  Speaker 3: and there's chatter, there's some of the pundits that are saying, oh,
• 31:52
  Speaker 3: we ought to have an open primary, we got to
• 31:53
  Speaker 3: have Democrats fighting, going to happen. I don't believe that
• 31:56
  Speaker 3: will happen. They will coorroinate, and I think it'll be
• 31:59
  Speaker 3: one of the two.
• 32:00
  Speaker 2: My bonus question is either three or c depending on
• 32:02
  Speaker 2: how you want to enlist these. How many times will
• 32:06
  Speaker 2: Kamala Harris or Michelle Obama debate Donald Trump?
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: Once? We'll have one debate, just one debate.
• 32:11
  Speaker 4: We will have one band.
• 32:12
  Speaker 2: Could they get away with saying I'm not going to
• 32:14
  Speaker 2: debate now, No, even if it's Michelle.
• 32:17
  Speaker 3: I think they will do one debate. I think they
• 32:19
  Speaker 3: will feel like it's not credible if you don't do
• 32:22
  Speaker 3: a debate, particularly because.
• 32:24
  Speaker 2: If you're Trump, do you push for two? I would yeah,
• 32:28
  Speaker 2: but they say it's a reset. We're doing two of
• 32:29
  Speaker 2: these suckers before November.
• 32:31
  Speaker 3: But I don't think they'll end up doing it. Look,
• 32:33
  Speaker 3: I think Trump may well push for two. Part of
• 32:35
  Speaker 3: the reason if you're a Democrat everyone concedes Trump mopped
• 32:38
  Speaker 3: the floor with Biden. I think it's a Democrat. You
• 32:41
  Speaker 3: don't want that to be the only debate. If you're
• 32:42
  Speaker 3: putting someone new, you'd need something credible. I will tell you,
• 32:47
  Speaker 3: I just came from a meeting that that jad Vance
• 32:49
  Speaker 3: met with all the senators. We're congratulating him, and he
• 32:52
  Speaker 3: did have a very funny thing he shared with us.
• 32:54
  Speaker 3: He said, you know, he was talking to to Trump about, well, okay,
• 32:58
  Speaker 3: who are we going to face?
• 32:59
  Speaker 4: Is going to be someone new? Is it going to
• 33:01
  Speaker 4: be Kamala? And and and and.
• 33:03
  Speaker 3: Jad said well, well, look, mister President, I said, yes,
• 33:06
  Speaker 3: assuming I got to debate Tamala. If they actually bring
• 33:09
  Speaker 3: in someone that's a really good debater, I may have
• 33:12
  Speaker 3: to rethink this. And Trump said, no, backing out. You
• 33:14
  Speaker 3: accepted that thing. You're stuck.
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: You'rein't going anywhere.
• 33:18
  Speaker 4: But look that.
• 33:21
  Speaker 3: I I think they'll do it fast. By the way,
• 33:25
  Speaker 3: I will point out the night of the debate, when
• 33:27
  Speaker 3: you and I did a podcast immediately thereafter, we said
• 33:30
  Speaker 3: that night, this is the most consequential presidential debate in
• 33:35
  Speaker 3: American history. And the reason we said that is because
• 33:38
  Speaker 3: we said, I believe this will change the names on
• 33:42
  Speaker 3: the ballot in November.
• 33:43
  Speaker 4: And that has never happened.
• 33:44
  Speaker 3: There's never been a debate that changed the names on
• 33:47
  Speaker 3: the ballot. And that's exactly what that debate did. It
• 33:49
  Speaker 3: took a few weeks to play out, but I think
• 33:52
  Speaker 3: it is imminent. I think it is within days.
• 33:54
  Speaker 2: To everybody that's here in the hall, thank you guys
• 33:57
  Speaker 2: for joining us. It's nice to do a show here
• 34:00

• 34:55
  Speaker 3: we do this. Number one, if you subscribe to the podcast,
• 34:59
  Speaker 3: you you know what's happening. We predicted this ten months ago,
• 35:03
  Speaker 3: and by the way, nobody else was predicting this.
• 35:04
  Speaker 4: We were do we.
• 35:05
  Speaker 2: Get a letter from the media when they thought we
• 35:07
  Speaker 2: were moonbacks apologizing No?
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: Okay?
• 35:10
  Speaker 3: But number two, this is designed to equip you to
• 35:15
  Speaker 3: give you the tools when you're talking to your friends,
• 35:17
  Speaker 3: your family, young people, when you're talking to your classmates
• 35:20
  Speaker 3: in school and they're arguing, and to give you the
• 35:23
  Speaker 3: facts that the corporate media never reports. That's what we
• 35:26
  Speaker 3: try to do three times a week on this is
• 35:29
  Speaker 3: this is what you need to know to go and
• 35:32
  Speaker 3: persuade and win.
• 35:33
  Speaker 2: And I promise we will have an emergency pod if
• 35:37
  Speaker 2: and when Joe Biden drops out. That's a fair prediction, right,
• 35:42
  Speaker 2: I think that is a fair prediction. Grab it wherever
• 35:45
  Speaker 2: you can. Donald Trump's speech tonight, any any prediction last minute?
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: Will he needled Joe Biden?
• 35:51
  Speaker 3: Look, I think it is going to be substantially tamped down.
• 35:56
  Speaker 3: I think Saturday change the speech. In fact, I know
• 35:58
  Speaker 3: Saturday change the speech that I think prior to Saturday
• 36:02
  Speaker 3: the speech was going to be quite combative, and I
• 36:06
  Speaker 3: expect to see a lot of unity, a lot more
• 36:10
  Speaker 3: language seeking to bring people together. And look, we've seen
• 36:14
  Speaker 3: this throughout the convention. We talked about we did a
• 36:18
  Speaker 3: live podcast at the convention yesterday. I talked about when
• 36:20
  Speaker 3: I visited with President Trump yesterday, and I think Saturday
• 36:24
  Speaker 3: really had an impact on him, had an impact. I mean,
• 36:26
  Speaker 3: he kind of pulled me aside and said really quietly,
• 36:29
  Speaker 3: just said God saved me. And it was it was
• 36:34
  Speaker 3: quiet and serious in a way that I think is
• 36:37
  Speaker 3: really consequential. And listen, I think it's you can't go
• 36:43
  Speaker 3: through what he went through Saturday, having been shot and
• 36:46
  Speaker 3: having been within a half inch of being killed. Amen,
• 36:51
  Speaker 3: without really thinking about God Almighty turning his head because
• 36:54
  Speaker 3: I believe that happened. I believe it was divine providence
• 36:57
  Speaker 3: that turned his head. And had it been slightly one
• 36:59
  Speaker 3: where the other, we would be having a dramatically different conversation.
• 37:03
  Speaker 2: No doubt about it. Always a pleasure at the convention.
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: Thanks to everybody that are here. We will see you
• 37:08
  Speaker 2: back here in a couple of days.
