BIDEN DROPS OUT: THIS IS THE COVERUP OF THE CENTURY! · The Ben Ferguson Podcast

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: Joe Biden has dropped out of the presidential race.
• 0:06
  Speaker 2: It is official.
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: Not only has Biden dropped out of the race, but
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: in his first letter to the country about him dropping
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: out of the race, he did not endorse Kamala Harris.
• 0:20
  Speaker 2: Why.
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: Maybe he needed leverage to get what he needs to
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: protect himself and his fail for their corruption with immunity.
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: This is a shocking moment in presidential history. It is
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: a shocking moment in political history. It is a shocking
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: moment for a president to not endorse his vice president
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: and then have to redo the statement after maybe he
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: got the deal done that he needed to get done
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: to then endorse her who is not endorsing Kamala Harris
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: is also shocking, meaning I think there's a very good
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: chance this could be a bloodbath of a fight at
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: the convention the Obamas and Pelosi.
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: Let me say this again.
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: Obama and Pelosi do not endorse Kamala Harris. This is
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: twenty twenty four chaos, and it is just the beginning. Now,
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: if you are a conservative, before you get too excited
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: about what I just told you, you need to understand
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: that the lead that Donald Trump has right now over
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: Joe Biden is meaningless and worthless. Let me also say this,
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: the lead that he has right now doesn't matter at
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: all for whoever the next candidate is why because the
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: media is about to coordinate someone who is the greatest
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: thing they've ever introduced to America. What you are witnessing
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: and what you are about to witness is going to
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: anger many of you that are conservatives, because the Democratic
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: Party and the media are going to give probably a
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: two billion dollar in kind donation and free advertising to
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: Kamala Harris or Michelle Obama or Gavin Newsom or whoever
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: the hell the Democrats end up choosing. They are going
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: to tell you that they are the greatest thing ever.
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: I'm going to use this analogy for you so that
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: you understand how massive perspective can change things, a difference
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: that it can make. Imagine you're on the greatest cruise
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: ship in the world, and imagine that cruise ship hits
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: an iceberg. Imagine that cruise ship is going down and
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: you look out and you see these little dinghy in
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: the water. You see a little fishing boat that looks
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: like total and utter crap. You see another boat coming
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: that's a tiny, little beat up little vessel that has
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: terrible seating and a small engine. But you know, on
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: the ship that you're on right now, you're going to
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: die if you don't get off that ship and think
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: about how good those other ships look. That is basically
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: what we're dealing with in the Democratic Party right now.
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: Joe Biden was the Titanic and it hit an iceberg
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: and it was going down, and all these little crappy
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: boats are coming in, and by golly, if you're on
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: the Titanic, that is the most beautiful ship you've ever seen.
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: There will be no scrutiny about those ships. There will
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: be no scrutiny about the past maintenance of those ships.
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: There will be no scrutiny over what type of ship
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: it is or if it even has the licenses papers
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: needed to be on the ocean. There will be no
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: scrutiny of any of the people that are piloting these
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: little dinghies or vessels or crappy boat votes, because whoever
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: ends up getting the nomination, they are going to become
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: God to the media and to the Democratic Party. When
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: your ship is sinking, let me talk about the money
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: that's about to flow in to whoever it is that
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: gets this nomination, when you're on a Titanic and you're rich,
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: and you're like, well, I'm not giving you any more
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: of my money because this ship is sinking, right, very
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: much like the Biden campaign, another ship comes to save
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: the day and you're willing to pay whatever it takes.
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: To get off of that sinking ship.
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: That is exactly what is going to happen with whoever
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: gets the nomination. It is going to be a coronation
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: whoever the Democratic Party picks. And I think the front
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: runner is at this moment, Kamala Harris. She is Princess
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: Diana to the Democratic Party. She is a hero and
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: a savior because perspective is everything.
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: Perspective is everything.
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: It's basically like an abusive relationship. You're willing to put
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: up with a lot more as long as the person
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: isn't trying to kill you. If you've ever been in
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: that situation, right, it's better than the alternative. Joe Biden
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: was worst case scenario for the Democratic Party. And now
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: Joe Biden has officially decided that he is going to
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: step aside. Now I didn't say resigned from the White House,
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: which is a question we should all be asking, and
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: we're going to deal with that coming up in a moment.
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: I'm also going to be joined by a dear friend
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: of mine, United States Center Ted Cruz is going to
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: join us in a moment to chat about.
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: All of this.
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: But before we even get to that, I want you
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: to hear how ABC News announced it to their audience
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: that Joe Biden is stepping aside.
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: Good afternoon, I'm Rachel Scott at ABC headquarters here in
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: New York. We are coming on the air at this
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: hour with breaking news. President Biden has just announced that
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: he is ending his reelection bid. Just moments ago, the
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: President tweeted out, it has been the greatest honor of
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: my life to serve as your president. Well, it has
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: been my intention to seek reelection. I believe it is
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: in the best interest of my party and the country
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: for me to stand down and to focus solely on
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: fulfilling my duties as president for the remainder of my term.
• 6:27
  Speaker 3: I will speak to the nation later this week in
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: more detail.
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: About my decision.
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: There are still so many questions yet to be decided,
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: and so little time before those questions need to be
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: figured out. So I want to go right away to
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: our chief Washington correspondent, John Carl John. We are just
• 6:42
  Speaker 3: one hundred days out from the November election. Pressure was
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: building on the president to step aside. Now he is
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: announcing that he has Rachel.
• 6:51
  Speaker 4: It's an extraordinary moment in American history. This is the
• 6:55
  Speaker 4: first time we have seen a sitting president bow out
• 7:00
  Speaker 4: of re election since Lyndon Van Johnson in nineteen sixty eight.
• 7:04
  Speaker 4: And it comes unlike Johnson's move, which happened in January
• 7:09
  Speaker 4: of that year. It comes after he has already gone
• 7:12
  Speaker 4: through a primary process, after he has already effectively won
• 7:16
  Speaker 4: the Democratic nomination, which now raises the huge questions, as
• 7:20
  Speaker 4: you allude to, of what happens next. In his letter
• 7:24
  Speaker 4: announcing this extraordinary decision, he mentions his Vice President Kamala Harris.
• 7:31
  Speaker 4: He says, I want to thank my Vice President Kamala
• 7:33
  Speaker 4: Harris for her extraord for being an extraordinary partner. But
• 7:37
  Speaker 4: he makes no reference about what he will do in
• 7:41
  Speaker 4: terms of an endorsement. Will he endorse, will he not endorse,
• 7:44
  Speaker 4: Will there be an open process what happens next? He
• 7:48
  Speaker 4: says he will talk to the nation in the coming
• 7:50
  Speaker 4: days more about his decision. But now the Democrats have
• 7:54
  Speaker 4: to figure out what happens. Who replaces Joe Biden as
• 7:58
  Speaker 4: the Democratic candidate's a president.
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: You listen to how they talk about this, and they
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: are not only elated, but they are estatic for the future.
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: And they don't even care who the future is. They
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: don't know who it's going to be. I don't know
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: if it's going to be Kamala's. She's the front runner.
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: That doesn't mean it's gonna happen, but it's going to
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: be an all out war. Now, let's talk for just
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: a second about Kamala Harris. Kamala Harris is now the
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: greatest thing the Democratic Party's ever seen, even though she's
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: a woman that dropped out of the president's race and
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: everyone hated her and she was pulling it like three percent.
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: But when your ship is sinking, to use that analogy again,
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: you'll jump on any lifeboat, any rubber dinghy, It doesn't
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: matter what it is, because that is your savior in
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: that moment. This is the best case scenario for Kamala Harris.
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: Let me also tell you Kamala Harris was not like
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: by the Democratic Party either and the Democratic elite, but
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: right now she is the little lifeboat that showed up.
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: It may be ugly, it may have a bad track
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: record of the engine going out, but you're still gonna
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: get on it because it looks.
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: Like a life boat that's going to save your life.
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: The other problem is the media is going to give
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: an inkind donation of what is the equivalent of billions
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: of dollars in ad buys, okay, billions of dollars in
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: ad bys to whoever gets the nomination, and they're gonna
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: tell you that it is an amazing candidate whoever the
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: Democrats pick, and for the next thirty days. You also
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: have to understand about the disadvantage of Trump campaign has
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: Trump and trumping Jadie Vance? How do you campaign like?
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: Who do you campaign against? Do you spend your time
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: campaigning against you know, Michelle Obama? Do you spend your
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: time campaigning against Gavin Newsom? Do you spend your time
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: campaigning against Kamala Harris? Or do you spend your time
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: campaigning against the Democratic Party and Joe Biden's record in general? Now,
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: do I think that if it is Kamala Harris, there's
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: ways that we can beat her and Trump can win. Yes,
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: But I don't want you to be overconfident tonight because
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: coming out of Milwaukee. Guess what, no one's talking about
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: that now, are they? The timing of this to announce
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: this on Sunday, the day after the convention and suck
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: out all the oxygen ow of the room was a
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: brilliant political move by the Democratic Party. The polls don't matter,
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: that bump you normally get out of a convention doesn't matter. Hell,
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: Donald Trump and the assassination attempt has now old news
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: a week after it happened. That's how big and catastrophic
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: this news story is. And the Democrats are going to
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: ride this way for thirty days. This convention the Democrats
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: going to have is a thirty day convention. Now every
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: day it's going to be this story. Now, let me
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: also remind you of this. Kamala Harris is human. Kama Harris.
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: Maybe she gets the nomination. Okay, maybe it's really hers.
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: Maybe she gets it and she's able to be the
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: easy choice that people call us behind. Let's start with
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: that idea. Can we beat a Kamala Harris? I believe
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: we can. Why because she said a lot of really
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: stupid things in the past. Remember, Kamala Harris is not
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: that much better than Joe Biden.
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: Listen is today.
• 11:31
  Speaker 5: And yesterday was today, yesterday, tomorrow will be today tomorrow.
• 11:38
  Speaker 5: So live today, so the future today will be as
• 11:44
  Speaker 5: the past today as it is tomorrow.
• 11:50
  Speaker 4: Today.
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: That's Kamala Harris, Folks, that is the Kamala Harris that
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: we will be running against. That is Kamala Harris giving
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: an actual speed speech. That is not a joke. If
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: you're laughing right now, you should be laughing because that's
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: the Vice President United's America. That's how bad of a
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: candidate she is when we go after her one on one.
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna play that again, and I want you to
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: try to follow along with Kamala Harris. This is Kamala
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: Harris at a public speech.
• 12:19
  Speaker 5: Today was today, yesterday, Tomorrow will be today tomorrow. So
• 12:27
  Speaker 5: live today, so the future today will be as the
• 12:32
  Speaker 5: past today as it is tomorrow.
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: That's Kamala Harris.
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: I'm playing that for you to remind you of exactly
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: who Kamala Harris actually is.
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: Do I believe we can beat Kamala Harris? Yes I do.
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: Do I believe that Donald Trump can beat her on
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: the debate stage, Yes I do. Do I believe that
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: we can still win this race, yes, but do not
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: get overconfident because it is a dead heat right now.
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: This is a dead heat. It is not going to change.
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: It is a dead heat. And there are other, by
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: the way, very smart Democrats that are looking at this.
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: Let me give you an example, all right, Josh Shapiro.
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: Remember that name. I'm going to say it again. It's
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: not Ben Shapiro, It's Josh Shapiro.
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: He's a dad to four kids, married to his high
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: school sweetheart, and the governor of Pennsylvania and a moderate,
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: not a Waco AOC extremists.
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: This is what he tweeted out earlier.
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: The contrast in this race could not be clear, and
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: the road to victory in November runs right through Pennsylvania,
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: where this collective work began. I will do everything I
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: can to help elect Kamala Harris as the forty seventh
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: President of the United States of America. The governor then
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: put out a larger statement, saying, when our founders came
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: together in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, now let me just
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: hit paulse and go. If you want to know what
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: it sounds like to do a deal, this is what
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: a guy sounds like. That may have just had a
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: deal with Kamala Harris to be picked as vice president
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: and not actually challenge her at the convention. African American woman,
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: he's a really smart guy to run with her, a
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: guy that understands how it works in Washington, how to
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: get things done, a guy that a state you desperately need,
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: because if you win Pennsylvania, where he's very popular as
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: the governor, then there's a very good chance you're going
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: to win the presidential election if you're a Democrat. If
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: you lose Pennsylvania, the math doesn't make sense, and it
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: would be virtually impossible to win the presidency if you
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: lose Pennsylvania.
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: So if you look at this.
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: Statement from Shapiro, the governor, he's saying, Hey, I'm going
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: to support who you know, Kama Harris is the forty
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: seventh president at America. It sounds like there may have
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: already been a deal that's been done. So let me
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: read you a statement. When our founders came together in
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: the Commonwealth of Pensylvania to declare our independence and establish
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: our democracy, they did so with a clear understanding that
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: we will only succeed if we were united. In the
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: two hundred and forty eight years since, our country and
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: our people have been tested, but the American spirit has
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: always triumphed despite our individual differences. When our safety was threatened,
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: when our values and freedoms were attacked, when the stakes
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: were high, Americans have found ways to come together and
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: unite behind common cause and common purpose. That's the lesson
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: of our founders who gathered in Pennsylvania two and a
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: half centuries ago, and it's the lessons our party must
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: learn for now from now. I've known Harris for nearly
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: two decades. We've both been prosecutors. We both stood up
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: for the rule of law. That's a lie.
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: We both fought for the people and delivered results. It's
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: also live.
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: Come my heirs, the patriot worthy of our support, and
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: she will continue the work of generations of an Americans
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: who came before us to protect our union, protect our democracy,
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: and advance real freedom. She has served the country honorably
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: as vice president, and she is ready to be president.
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: The best path forward for the Democratic Party is to
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: quickly unite behind Harris and refocus on winning the presidency.
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: The contrast to this race could not be clearer, and
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: the road to victory November runs through Pennsylvania, where the
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: collective work began.
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: I will do everything I can.
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: To help elect Kamala Harris, the forty seventh President of
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: the United States, signed Governor Shapiro. If you want to
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: know who I think the front runner is right now
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: to be the governor, I should say to be the
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: vice president, it is Shapiro of Pennsylvania. I think it's
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: very clear deals are getting done right now. Like you
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: wouldn't believe, Joe Biden has dropped out of the presidential race.
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: The part that really makes me laugh is, of course
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: Joe Biden did this on National ice Cream Day.
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: You couldn't make it more fitting than that.
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: You do it on National ice Cream Day, Joe Biden,
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: they ask her to.
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: Give me an ice cream cone. I'm out.
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: Maybe that's how they bribed him to do it. Maybe
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: that was Kamala's plan all along. Let me also just
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: remind you of Kamala Harris. Okay, this is a woman
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: that was the border czar.
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: She is the.
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: Presumptive Democratic nominee. So when she goes on TV and
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: she talks about the border, here's what she says about
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: the border order.
• 17:39
  Speaker 6: We've been to the border so this whole, this whole,
• 17:42
  Speaker 6: this whole thing about the border. We've been to the border.
• 17:45
  Speaker 6: We've been to the border. You haven't been to the border,
• 17:48
  Speaker 6: and I haven't been to Europe. And I mean, I
• 17:51
  Speaker 6: don't I don't understand the point that you're making.
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: Order.
• 17:54
  Speaker 6: We've been to the border.
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: It's amazing. I don't understand the point you're making. This
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: is the woman she was the borders are and she
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: says we've been to the border. Quote, we've been to
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: the border. And then Holt says you haven't been to
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: the border. And then she says, I haven't been to
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: Europe either. What's your point? You just said you went
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: to the border, ma'am. You just lied to the American people.
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: You just told the American people that you had been
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: to the border when you hadn't, and Lester Holtz says
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: you haven't been to the border. Now, this is a
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: woman that believes in open borders. This is a woman
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: that cannot do her job. This is a woman that
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: is a failure as much as he is a failure.
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: Let me also remind you what Vice President Harris had
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: to say about Ukraine and the foreign policy. So let's
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: say you just say that was her having a bad day. Okay,
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: let's go with that for a second.
• 18:54
  Speaker 6: Ukraine is a country in Europe. It exists next to
• 19:00
  Speaker 6: another country called Russia. Russia is a bigger country. Russia
• 19:03
  Speaker 6: is a powerful country. Russia decided to invade a smaller
• 19:07
  Speaker 6: country called Ukraine. So basically that's wrong.
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: So basically that's wrong. That's Vice President Harris on her
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: analysis of Hey, let me give you some great analysis here.
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: Ukraine is a country in Europe.
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: It exists next to another country called Russia. Russia is
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: a bigger country. I'm quoting verbatim. Russia is a powerful country.
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: Russia decided to invade a smaller country called Ukraine.
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: So basically that's wrong. Well, I am so glad.
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: I am so glad that she clarified that for all
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: of us that country in Europe. Let me give you
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: a flashback, by the way, about border security, Kama Harris
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: raised her hand in favor of decriminalizing a legal border
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: crossings when she was on the debate stage.
• 20:04
  Speaker 7: What was the question We had a very spirited debate
• 20:07
  Speaker 7: on this stage last night on the topic of decriminalization
• 20:10
  Speaker 7: of the border. If you'd be so kind, raise your
• 20:13
  Speaker 7: hand if you think.
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: It should be a civil offense rather.
• 20:16
  Speaker 7: Than a crime to cross the border without documentation, Can
• 20:21
  Speaker 7: we keep the hands up so we could see them.
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: Kama Harris her hand raised high in the air with
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: Joe Biden. So if you think that Kama Harris is,
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: you know, and they're gonna I'm telling you, they're going
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: to try to turn her into a mix between Mother
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: Teresa and Princess Die. If she gets it, they'll give
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: her two billion three billion in free advertising. This is
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: going to be a Hey, the ship you were on
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: was sinking. It was the Titanic, and I got a dinghy.
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: That sucks, but at least it's better than what you
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: had before. That's what this is going to be. I
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: also believe now that this is also an issue of
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: the Democratic Party just being so desperate. You're in the
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: middle of the desert. You need water, you need food.
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: You'll take it from anyone, right, You'll take it from
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: the devil.
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: And this is their devil.
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: This is the deal they were willing to make with
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: the devil to get rid of Joe Biden. Nobody, I
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: will say it again, likes Kamala Harris. She cannot keep
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: a staff. She cannot keep people in and around her
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: staff happy. They're quitting on her all the time. She
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: is a disaster. Her staff knows that she is a disaster.
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: And Kamala Harris is an individual that slid into this
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: position for one reason, and one reason only.
• 21:56
  Speaker 2: Joe Biden had a race problem.
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: You may not remember that Joe Biden had a major
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: race problem. Joining me now to talk about all of
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: this is a dear.
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: Friend of mine.
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: I co host a podcasts with him, Verdict with Ted Cruz.
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: Senator Ted Cruz joins me now, Senator. We were just
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: playing some clips of some of Kamala's most brilliant moments
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: in life. One of them you tweeted out was her
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: talking about the border and she's like, we've been to
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: the border.
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: We've been the border. No you haven't.
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: Well I haven't been to Europe either, but you know, haha,
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: laugh laugh.
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: This is a person, however.
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: That the Democratic Party is going to try to sell
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: is the greatest thing we've ever seen in a savior.
• 22:42
  Speaker 2: Your reaction to this.
• 22:43
  Speaker 8: News, well, the Democrats are gathering around her, at least
• 22:48
  Speaker 8: Joe Biden is. The Clintons are, and I think she's
• 22:52
  Speaker 8: gonna end up being their nominee. I think the only
• 22:54
  Speaker 8: person who could possibly push her aside as Michelle Obama,
• 22:58
  Speaker 8: and at least right now, there appears to be no
• 23:01
  Speaker 8: effort on her part to do that.
• 23:03
  Speaker 2: Let's talk about how we got to this point.
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: You predicted on our show, and if you haven't ever
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: listened to it, downloaded at Verdict with Ted Cruz wherever
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: you get your podcasts ten months ago that Joe Biden
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: would not in fact be the nominee.
• 23:20
  Speaker 2: At the end of the day. You believed it.
• 23:23
  Speaker 8: Then, why, well, it was clear that his metal capacity
• 23:28
  Speaker 8: had diminished powerfully. It was clear every day it was
• 23:33
  Speaker 8: getting worse, and I didn't believe he was going to
• 23:35
  Speaker 8: be able to go to the distance. I also thought
• 23:38
  Speaker 8: that that Democrats were getting more and more nervous, and
• 23:42
  Speaker 8: the canary in the coal mine was you started seeing
• 23:45
  Speaker 8: the stakeholders of the Democrat Party floating attacks on him,
• 23:49
  Speaker 8: and in particularly the corporate media. Look the corporate media today,
• 23:53
  Speaker 8: they are functionally part of the Democrat Party. They are
• 23:56
  Speaker 8: the left wing of the Democrat Party. And so when
• 23:58
  Speaker 8: you and I on the podcast ten months ago laid
• 24:02
  Speaker 8: out we did not entire podcast where I predicted that
• 24:05
  Speaker 8: Joe Biden would withdraw from the ballot sometime around the
• 24:10
  Speaker 8: Democrat convention sometime this summer. We predicted that ten months ago,
• 24:15
  Speaker 8: and I got to say the reaction when we laid
• 24:18
  Speaker 8: out that prediction as the corporate media ridiculed you and
• 24:21
  Speaker 8: me as as moon back conspiracy theorists. They said it was,
• 24:26
  Speaker 8: you know, tinfoil hat type stuff, and it played out
• 24:30
  Speaker 8: exactly as we predicted. I'll point out we made the
• 24:33
  Speaker 8: prediction again the night of the presidential debate between Trump
• 24:37
  Speaker 8: and Biden, and that night you and I did a
• 24:39
  Speaker 8: podcast immediately when the debate was over. We recorded the
• 24:43
  Speaker 8: podcast and I said that night, this I believe will
• 24:48
  Speaker 8: go down in history as the most consequential presidential debate
• 24:53
  Speaker 8: in the history of our country. Why and what I
• 24:56
  Speaker 8: predicted the night of the debate is this debate will
• 24:59
  Speaker 8: remove Joe Biden and from the ballot. He will not
• 25:01
  Speaker 8: be on the ballot in November because his performance was
• 25:04
  Speaker 8: so disastrously bad that the Democrats and the corporate media,
• 25:10
  Speaker 8: which is, as I said, completely interwoven into the Democrat Party,
• 25:14
  Speaker 8: were freaking out. And that night I predicted within three
• 25:19
  Speaker 8: weeks they would drive Joe Biden off the ballot.
• 25:22
  Speaker 2: Well, today they've done, so.
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: Let's talk about how that's unfolded. And it was pretty surreal.
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: You first had this letter come out from Joe Biden saying, hey,
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna drop out of this presdential race, and did
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: not if you read that letter endorse Kamala Harris, correct.
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: Then you had a statement come out later on social
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: media that he was endorsing Kamala Harris. Why the delay
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: there and was it because he needed more guarantees before
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: he would endorse.
• 25:54
  Speaker 8: Well, look, as you know, you and I did an
• 25:56
  Speaker 8: entire emergency podcast today that is just out that a
• 26:00
  Speaker 8: deep dive into this question. And so if you want
• 26:02
  Speaker 8: to go deep into this download Verdict with Ted Cruz,
• 26:05
  Speaker 8: you can. You can get it right now and get
• 26:08
  Speaker 8: those questions answered at real death. But listen, there was
• 26:12
  Speaker 8: a fairly short window. His first statement, he thanked Kamala Harris,
• 26:16
  Speaker 8: but he didn't endorse her. And what I believed happened
• 26:20
  Speaker 8: is that the powers that be in the Democrat Party
• 26:22
  Speaker 8: put enormous pressure on him, pounded the living daylights out
• 26:26
  Speaker 8: of him, and he quickly put out a tweet saying
• 26:28
  Speaker 8: I endorse her. I think it listen, the Democrat Party
• 26:32
  Speaker 8: is a command and control party. They follow orders. And
• 26:36
  Speaker 8: so what we saw happening, and it began with the debate,
• 26:40
  Speaker 8: we saw one after another after another major player in
• 26:44
  Speaker 8: the Democrat Party come out against Joe Biden. So we
• 26:48
  Speaker 8: saw we saw Nancy Pelosi, we saw Chuck Schumer, we
• 26:52
  Speaker 8: saw Hakeem Jeffries, we saw senator after senator. We saw
• 26:57
  Speaker 8: lots of Republican congressmen or Democrat congressman rather coming out
• 27:02
  Speaker 8: against Joe Biden. And understand, not a one of them
• 27:06
  Speaker 8: did it because they're worried that we should not have
• 27:09
  Speaker 8: someone who has dementia as the commander in chief. Not
• 27:12
  Speaker 8: a one of them was worried about someone who's senile
• 27:15
  Speaker 8: and can't tie his shoes having a finger on the
• 27:17
  Speaker 8: nuclear button. They were all okay with that. The reason
• 27:20
  Speaker 8: they freaked out is simple. The American people watched that
• 27:24
  Speaker 8: debate and said, holy cow, this guy is not there.
• 27:28
  Speaker 2: He's gone.
• 27:28
  Speaker 8: And listen, any one of us who's had an elderly parent,
• 27:32
  Speaker 8: your grandparent, a relative, you've seen what the end of
• 27:37
  Speaker 8: life can be, and it can be sad, and Joe
• 27:40
  Speaker 8: Biden is well in the midst of it. And after
• 27:42
  Speaker 8: that debate, nobody could argue to the contrary. And so
• 27:46
  Speaker 8: the reason all the Democrats jump ship is they were
• 27:49
  Speaker 8: afraid they're going to lose.
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: How the hell do you run against somebody you don't
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: know who is going to be the nominee between now
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: and the convention, because you can't run against Joe Biden anymore?
• 28:02
  Speaker 2: How do you do it? What do you do?
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: Do you run against Kama twenty percent of the time,
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: you run against News some ten percent time, you run
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: against Shapiro another five percent. What in the hell does
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: the Trump campaign do for the next thirty days.
• 28:14
  Speaker 8: Well, let me first underscore just how historic this moment is.
• 28:18
  Speaker 8: This has never happened in the history of our country.
• 28:21
  Speaker 8: We have never had one of the two major party
• 28:23
  Speaker 8: nominees drop out anywhere close to this close to the election.
• 28:27
  Speaker 8: We're one hundred and six days away from the general election.
• 28:30
  Speaker 8: That the closest analog we have is the nineteen sixty
• 28:34
  Speaker 8: eight presidential election, where LBJ. Lynnon Vaine Johnson was the
• 28:38
  Speaker 8: incumbent president, the Democrat, and he opted not to run
• 28:42
  Speaker 8: for reelection. Joe Biden now joins him as the second
• 28:45
  Speaker 8: incumbent president to opt not to run for reelection, but
• 28:49
  Speaker 8: LBJ did so much much earlier in the cycle. There
• 28:52
  Speaker 8: was a full on primary at the end of the
• 28:54
  Speaker 8: day Hubert Humphrey the vice president one but one after
• 28:57
  Speaker 8: only a very contested race. Interesting enough, in that cycle
• 29:01
  Speaker 8: there was someone named Robert F. Kennedy who was running
• 29:04
  Speaker 8: who tragically was shot and assassinated. We now have RFK Junior,
• 29:08
  Speaker 8: his son running this cycle. So there are eerie parallels
• 29:11
  Speaker 8: and sixty eight as this year, the Democrat convention is
• 29:16
  Speaker 8: in Chicago. That convention was an absolute mess. It was chaotic,
• 29:20
  Speaker 8: There were angry left wing protesters outside, there were violent
• 29:23
  Speaker 8: clashes outside, and it contributed to a landslide victory of
• 29:28
  Speaker 8: Richard Nixon in that election, and the Republicans we may
• 29:31
  Speaker 8: well see history repeat itself once again. So what does
• 29:35
  Speaker 8: the Trump campaign do now? I would say about forty percent,
• 29:39
  Speaker 8: you run against Kamala Harris. I think Kamala Harris at
• 29:42
  Speaker 8: this point is very likely to be the Democrat nominee,
• 29:46
  Speaker 8: and so about forty percent you run against her. In
• 29:48
  Speaker 8: about sixty percent, you just run against the democrats failed agenda.
• 29:52
  Speaker 8: And understand, this policy record is not just Joe Biden's,
• 29:56
  Speaker 8: it's not just Kamala Harris's, but it is every Democrat
• 30:00
  Speaker 8: and the Senate, It's every Democrat in the House. All
• 30:02
  Speaker 8: of them have voted repeatedly in favor of trillions and
• 30:05
  Speaker 8: spending trillions in debt, printing money we don't have inflation
• 30:09
  Speaker 8: that is hammering working men and women. All of them
• 30:11
  Speaker 8: have voted repeatedly in favor of the open borders and
• 30:14
  Speaker 8: the invasion we have on our southern border. All of
• 30:18
  Speaker 8: them have voted in favor of releasing criminals from jail
• 30:21
  Speaker 8: and defunding the police and undermining law enforcement. And all
• 30:26
  Speaker 8: of them have voted in favor of this incredibly disastrous
• 30:30
  Speaker 8: foreign policy that includes undermining our friends and allies, including
• 30:34
  Speaker 8: especially the State of Israel, and also appeasing and showing
• 30:38
  Speaker 8: weakness to our enemies. So in the Senate, every Democrat
• 30:41
  Speaker 8: senator has voted in favor of Biden and Harris's disastrous
• 30:45
  Speaker 8: policy of flowing over one hundred billion dollars to the
• 30:50
  Speaker 8: Ayatola Commanie in Iran. Iran, in turns, provides ninety percent
• 30:54
  Speaker 8: of the funding to AMAS and ninety percent of the
• 30:56
  Speaker 8: funding to Hesbala. So I think what you do is
• 30:59
  Speaker 8: forty Kamala sixty percent. Their record is a disaster. It's
• 31:04
  Speaker 8: heard Americans across the board, and it doesn't matter which
• 31:07
  Speaker 8: widget you drop into the slot. They've got to defend
• 31:10
  Speaker 8: their record, and the record is a train wreck.
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: Final question for you, and it's an important one. We
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: are winning in every poll against Biden. That's obviously why
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: Biden dropped out. I think this is going to be
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: a complete reset. You and I just spent time did
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: several podcasts from Milwaukee, and your concerns you and I
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: talked about on the show was we were overconfident coming
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: out of there. Yes, I think this campaign is completely
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: The numbers we have right now are completely worthless.
• 31:38
  Speaker 2: In thirty days.
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: It's a whole brand new campaign with all brand new
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: polling Dowta, we have seen.
• 31:44
  Speaker 2: Everything's happened to this point doesn't matter.
• 31:46
  Speaker 8: Am I right or wrong? Look, that's exactly right. The
• 31:48
  Speaker 8: polls today do not matter. And the Democrats deliberately waited
• 31:52
  Speaker 8: to do this until after the Republican Convention. The convention
• 31:55
  Speaker 8: was the best Republican convention I've ever seen. We are
• 31:58
  Speaker 8: more unified than we have ever been. I assume Trump
• 32:01
  Speaker 8: will get a bounce out of it. Typically the historical
• 32:04
  Speaker 8: average is about four points, but this announcement is designed
• 32:09
  Speaker 8: to cut that off. And I got to say, on
• 32:12
  Speaker 8: one level, I was encouraged how unified we were in Milwaukee,
• 32:14
  Speaker 8: but another level, it scared me because I'm worried. I
• 32:17
  Speaker 8: don't want Republicans to be overconfident. There was an air
• 32:22
  Speaker 8: of celebration in Milwaukee, and frankly, the time for celebrating
• 32:25
  Speaker 8: is after election day, not now. Now is the time
• 32:28
  Speaker 8: for hard work. We're gonna have effectively a month long
• 32:31
  Speaker 8: Democrat convention where they're gonna dominate the news saying how
• 32:35
  Speaker 8: great all their choices are. That is dangerous. We need
• 32:38
  Speaker 8: to rally behind Donald Trump to get reelected. And I'll
• 32:41
  Speaker 8: point out I'm running in a very tough reelect in
• 32:43
  Speaker 8: Texas where a month of relentless corporate media pr for
• 32:48
  Speaker 8: the Democrats is dangerous. So let me encourage folks. Come
• 32:51
  Speaker 8: to our website, Ted Cruz dot org. Ted Cruz dot org.
• 32:54
  Speaker 8: We need your support. Come to the website Ted Cruz

  Speaker 8: beat me in Texas. So please come to Ted Cruz
• 33:06

• 33:14
  Speaker 1: are targeting, is center Ted Cruz. Ted Cruise dot org.
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: Get involved in the race. It's going to have more
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: money probably come from outside the state than inside and
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: will be the most expensive Senate race in history of
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: this country. Senator, I appreciate you coming on as always
• 33:31
