Let me talk to you about American Giant.

Now, there's a time when American manufacturing was the envy of the world.

If it was made in America, it was quality that the world trusted.

A lot of that is gone these days.

And there's really not a lot of people trying to fix it.

Honestly, American Giant is one.

This is a company that is trying to fix that.

They started producing quality American clothing.

with American cotton and American workers.

When you buy American, you can create jobs for sewers and cutters and factory workers in towns and cities across the U.S.

These are jobs that bring pride and purpose and stitch people together.

As we get ready to celebrate

the summer coming off of Independence Day, support the vision, the craftsmanship, the craftsmanship, the craftsmanship.

I can't, that's a, I don't know, that was a tough one for me to get there.

I did not craft that word particularly right, but that's not like American Giant, what they do with their clothing.

I love their freaking hoodies.

They're awesome.

Everything I've ever had from American Giant is not only something that I love, but something that I'm going to be loving for a very, very long time.

They have the American made t-shirt available at American-Giant.com/slash Glenn.

All right.

Maybe we can come up with one or two things to talk about today.

One or two.

I don't know what it's going to be, but we'll reach deep into the next.

Something like your favorite Disney character.

Okay, something like that.

We'll work on it.

Yeah.

Got no room

to compromise.

We're gonna stay together

if we're gonna survive.

Stand up straight

and hold the alive.

It's a new day, I tell you right.

Welcome to the fusion

of entertainment and enlightenment.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

It sure is, and it features patent stoop today for Glenn.

we still have, man, there's a lot of debate fallout.

Have you noticed something?

I haven't really noticed anything.

It's just beginning

to look a little chaotic in the Democrat Party.

Wow, they have no clue.

We'll get into that a lot more in 60 seconds.

So wouldn't it be nice to live in a world where your credit card balance wasn't hit with crippling compound interest?

It sounds nice, I would think, to live in that world.

Unfortunately, we don't live in that world.

And if you're someone who has had to have credit cards and used them a lot, chances are fair that you could end up in debt up to your eyeballs eventually.

Talking about the kind of debt that can wipe out your savings and set you back years, if not permanently.

But if you're fiscally responsible, you should find a little time in your day to give the mortgage consultants over at American Financing a call.

They're going to go look over your finances.

They're going to see if there are some areas that could be improved.

For instance, your mortgage really can be made to work for you.

It can help you get out of high interest debt fast.

That is the kind of thing that happens to people when they get in touch with American Financing.

Please, as always, don't take our word for it.

Just do your own homework.

Well, obviously, some people are trying to make a big deal out of the debate, you know, that happened.

And with Joe Biden, who did fine, by the way, yes, he was a little tired.

Well, he had a bad night.

He had a bad night.

He had a bad night.

He had a cold.

He had a bad cold.

There was a little bit of a dead lag.

Well, Trump was yelling the whole time.

The whole time.

You know, screaming.

He had the top of his lungs.

Well, and he was traveling overseas.

Have you ever traveled overseas?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah, you have.

Did you get tired at any point?

Usually a good month afterward, you're going to be tired.

You're going to be tired.

He was exhausted.

Right.

He was exhausted.

Yes.

Pat.

I know.

And, you know, I mean, like,

that's just half of the excuses he's used since this thing happened.

Well, I think he was also dehydrated.

Dehydrated.

Yeah.

I think so.

You know what happens when you get dehydrated?

You can't even think.

I mean,

shall I say it?

Electrolytes.

I mean, where were the electrolytes?

Thank you.

Was there any Gatorade on stage?

I didn't see any.

I think it was all kept from him.

Yeah.

The Republicans, from what I understand, punctured

the buckets of Gatorade that were back to get him hydrated, and they just punctured the side of him so it leaked all over the floor.

And that made, by the way,

Biden's new orthopedic shoes

sticky on the bottom, which is distracting.

Wildly distracting.

And I mean,

two haters stuck to the floor during a debate.

How are you going to talk?

How are you going to talk?

People are like, oh, he's shuffling.

No, his feet were stuck to the floor because of the Gatorade that leaked everywhere.

He's obviously going to say things like, ooh, ooh.

And that's a direct quote from him.

Right.

And I thought it was powerful, but it was because his feet were stuck to the floor.

To be fair, that was a partial quote.

It went on for about 30 seconds.

And by the way, Pat, you know, if you want to have a fair debate, you don't put it on some right-wing network like CNN.

No, thank you.

You know, these people are out for Trump.

Yeah.

You know, and I think that's quite clear to everybody.

It should have been called not the CNN debate, the MAGA debate would have been far more appropriate.

I was amazed.

I mean,

it's been incredible to watch.

Because I guess...

If you're a function of the party and the people that work around Joe Biden is to keep him in power no matter what.

So they can't admit what's going on.

It's been fascinating for them to just struggle to find any way to get out of this.

Actually, it wasn't that bad.

Actually, the speech afterward was fine.

You know, the six-minute speech he did on Prompter, like the next day, they're like raving about that.

And then they set up this Stephanopoulos interview.

And it's such an interesting time, Pat.

Something I think we've never seen.

I would love to know.

Maybe you remember a time where this occurred, but the press has literally turned on Joe Biden, at least for this one week period.

Yeah, they have.

Now, I will promise you, I promise you that the second they have no opportunity to replace him, they will be back on his side and they will say he's cured Alzheimer's.

Oh, my God.

That is 100% going to happen.

Yes.

But right now, they will talk about the overreaction.

Overreaction.

Yep.

The press overreaction.

Like they kind of did with the emails.

They were like, you know, we should have never even talked about those emails.

That was crazy.

Like, why do we talk about them?

The media made a real mistake there by talking about those emails.

They will do the same thing.

And they will say, you know, actually, he's fine.

And actually, you know, he had that tough period around the debate, but we've talked to him recently.

It was one bad night.

And I think that was just one bad night.

He's doing great now.

One bad night.

They will do all of those things the second they feel that they can no longer replace him with Kamala Harris or somebody else.

And right now, they're in that period where they think we are in trouble.

Our goal as journalists is not to cover the news, is not to cover facts.

It is to get Joe Biden or a Democrat elected.

It was Joe Biden all the way up until that debate, until the moment they realized, Pat, holy crap, this guy's going to lose.

That was their moment.

This guy's going to lose to Donald Trump.

Let's jam this car that's been in six gear for the last 100 miles into reverse on the highway and suddenly act as if, first of all, things have changed.

This is new.

He's gotten much worse over the last month or two.

We never saw anything like this before.

You know, there were some rumors here and there, but generally speaking, there was nothing.

And now they've reversed.

And now they really do want him out.

I mean, I have never seen anything like the New York Times coverage.

Every story is about how not only

has he completely fallen apart mentally,

but...

Everybody around him, every official is saying it, has been saying it.

They've got examples from months ago, suddenly.

Why they didn't report them at the time?

Who knows?

Well, because at the time he was fine, and it was a right-wing, cookery conspiracy.

Cheap fakes.

Yeah.

We were dealing with cheap fakes at the time.

Yes.

And thankfully, we're now past that, I guess.

I guess.

I mean, it is so...

Completely absurd.

Yeah.

Blatantly so.

And now they're like, honestly, at the point where they are covering him

like we do, right?

Like they are covering him

where like, you know, we would do a shit.

We'll do a show on a Monday and Joe Biden's been out speaking and he, you know, he'll do a couple of speeches and he'll just flub a few lines and just sound like an idiot a few times.

And

we'll highlight it because A, it's funny.

And B, it highlights something that we already knew that the audience has already understood and has made their decision on, that this guy is way too old to be president.

And like we kind of will look at at it and say, wow, this is amazing that nobody's noticing this.

Like, you know, but not every gaff is the biggest deal in the world.

Not every little mispronunciation is the biggest deal in the world.

Yeah.

You know,

listen to this.

This is just one example.

This is from July 4th.

President Biden sought to steady his reelection campaign by talking with two black radio hosts for interviews broadcast on Thursday, but he spoke haltingly at points during one interview and struggled to find the right phrase in the other.

Now,

that would never be covered until this past week.

That's true.

The fact that he just spoke haltingly and said one thing wrong in an interview, like that's every interview for Joe Biden for four years.

I've seen so many headlines that

proclaim Joe Biden said he was a black woman.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

And when you hear it,

he actually does say that, but you know what he's trying to say.

But you know what he's trying to say?

Yeah.

And like, and they wouldn't have mentioned it it's on the level of 57 states from Barack Obama.

Yeah.

Right.

Like it is just a flub.

We all know that Donald or that Barack Obama doesn't actually think there are 57 states.

We also, I think, understand that Joe Biden doesn't believe he's a black woman.

But like, you know, it's a little flub and we would make fun of it and move on with our lives.

They go on to highlight that exact phrase.

They say he spoke haltingly at points during one interview and struggled to find the right phrase in another, saying that he was proud to have been, quote, the first black woman to serve with a black president.

That's so great.

Both of those are wrong.

I mean,

he's not a black woman and he doesn't serve with a black president.

He is

the first president to select a black vice president.

So you got something there.

But you kind of knew what he was going for.

That's the type of stuff that they would full out ignore two weeks ago.

And if you brought it up.

It was like, oh, come on.

You know, that's ridiculous.

He misspoke.

He misspoke.

Get over it.

He's had a lifelong stuttering problem.

Leave the man alone.

That's what you'd you'd get.

It goes on.

He also stumbled over his words during a four-minute Fourth of July speech to military families at the White House, beginning a story about four.

Listen how minor this is.

Beginning a story about former president Donald J.

Trump calling him one of our colleagues, the former president.

Now, it's not a ridiculous stretch to call Donald Trump a colleague of other politicians.

He was.

Now, they might not like each other, but they did work together theoretically on some things.

They all held jobs and in theory it meant they were working together, they were negotiating, they were talking to each other.

They highlight that as a gaffe.

Now, it's true.

That's a dumb thing to say, I guess, if you're a presidential candidate running against another guy.

Like they want to call him Hitler.

So generally speaking, they don't call him a colleague.

But like, is that even a gaffe?

I mean, it's so minor that I don't even think we would highlight it.

I don't think so.

Like, people.

I didn't have it in my show prep.

Did you have it in your show prep?

Nope.

The only reason I pulled it was for this, was to show how far they've gone.

They have turned into, like, Breitbart.

The New York Times, the Washington Post, they want this guy out so

badly

for this one-month period, they've decided they're going to go all in to get him out.

And if it fails, they will go exactly back to where they were.

and act like we're the crazy ones for noticing it.

And I don't think it's going to, I don't think it's going to move him to withdraw from the race.

I think he's so egomaniacal.

He sticks with it.

I think he should.

He stick with it, Joe.

Yeah.

Stay where you...

Don't let these people force you out.

This is exactly what Trump socialed out or whatever.

The truth.

The truth.

He truthed it.

Yeah, he truthed this out.

He thinks that he should stay in his, what did he call it?

Fierce and, I don't know.

I'll have to look for the exact verbiage, but it was a really sarcastic quote.

It was very funny.

Trying to get him to please stay in the race, Joe, because you're solid as a rock and such a formidable opponent.

And it's interesting because,

you know, some of the polls are showing some gains by Trump since the debate.

Others,

it's been a little split.

It's been mixed.

There have been some that have been pretty good for Biden, some that have been pretty good for Trump.

I mean,

the averages seem to have, you know, moved on this news, but which direction?

For Trump, but not dramatically.

You know, I think.

Not as much as it should.

Not as much as it should.

It should be much, much more than it is.

You know, like, let's see, just looking at

one of these averages, had it at basically 42.40, Trump, before the debate, and now 43.40.

Ooh.

What point?

Come on.

In reality, Joe Biden has no argument to not only be an actual candidate, but president of the United States.

Everyone can look at him and realize this should be over yesterday.

Yeah.

Maybe a long time ago.

On the other side, if you're Joe Biden, the polls haven't fallen apart completely.

They don't look good, but they haven't fallen apart completely.

These averages will start to filter in only post-debate polls pretty soon, and you'll get a final, you know, get a final idea as to where this thing really stands.

But generally speaking, he's got to be within the margin of error, probably nationally, probably in a lot of these swing states.

And there's not really an argument to say things have changed so dramatically that you need to make a change.

And I think if I were Biden, and

with everything that entails, I'm a very corrupt person.

I've only cared about my own and family's power and money for many, many years.

I have dreamt about being president of the United States since at least 1972.

All I care about is myself and the people around me.

I'm looking for ways to enrich myself, but more importantly, am realizing, probably at some level, he's realizing we're getting close to the end here.

Are you really going to give this up?

Nobody gives this up.

Why would you be the first one?

Why?

Because

some congressman you've never heard of says he wants you out.

So what?

It's your decision.

You won the primary.

You're the president of the United States.

If you can't withstand a couple of weeks of op-eds from the New York Times, what kind of man are you?

Stay in the race, Joe.

Go on, that's what Trump said.

Says he posted this yesterday.

Crooked Joe Biden should ignore his many critics and move forward with alacrity and strength with his powerful and far-reaching campaign.

He should be.

sharp, precise, and energetic, just like he was in the debate in selling his policies of open borders, where millions of people, including record numbers of terrorists, are allowed to enter our country from prisons and mental institutions totally unchecked and unvetted, to ending Social Security, men playing women's sports, high taxes, high interest rates, encouraging a woke military, uncontrollable inflation, record-setting crime, only electric vehicles, subservience to China and other countries, endless wars, putting America last, losing our dollar-based standard, and so much more.

Yes, Sleepy Joe should continue his campaign of American destruction and make China great again.

It's so good.

I mean, it's funny, and it's very sarcastic.

And I understand why he's doing it.

I feel like I'd rather him wait on this stuff just a little bit because I don't want.

He can't.

He can't.

He can't.

He can't.

I do think, though,

are we at agreement here that the best thing probably for the future of the country is for Joe Biden to remain the nominee?

I think so, yeah.

Because he's much more beatable.

He's easy to beat.

And while the next four to six months are going to be terrible and scary, it's better than four and a half years of terrible and scary, which is what you get with, let's say, Kamala Harris as president.

And maybe eight and a half years.

God only knows.

So I think the best thing, even though I think it puts it in severe risk over the next six months, is probably for Joe Biden to remain the nominee.

We should talk about strategy here, Pat, of how do you make that happen?

We will do that coming up in one minute.

All right, since the start of the,

you know, since you get to that point where October 7th happens in Israel, we've seen so much death and destruction in the Holy Land for more than 40 years now that the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews have been on the ground in Israel.

And within hours of the war starting on October 7th, and every day since, they've been feeding the hungry, protecting the vulnerable in Israel.

Continue in the, they've, you know, they've been, you know, as these attacks are kind of just going on and on and on and on.

Now in the north, as well as the south, there are resilient survivors who bravely share their stories in a series of fellowship calls.

Faces of iron, survivors like Danny, whose beloved daughter and her husband were burned alive on October 7th by Hamas terrorists.

I mean, what happened in this country is just such an utter disgrace.

Danny's a commander of the the volunteer fire and rescue in his community.

Despite the fact that there was fire equipment nearby, Danny could do nothing about his daughter's house burned to the ground.

These are the types of people IFCJ is helping.

Christians like you support Israel through the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews.

It's this support that helps these survivors remain steadfast and strong.

To hear more stories like this one and to show your support for Israel, visit supportifcj.org.

I don't need to tell you that this is an important cause.

I mean, I think just what you know of October 7th makes it blatantly obvious.

So supportifcj.org.

Supportifcj.org.

10-second station ID.

So we're talking about Joe Biden and whether he should remain in the race.

And I think we agree, Pat, that

it would be good for America if he stays in the race.

I don't want him.

Because I I feel like the instinct of a conservative is to say, well, the opponent is Joe Biden.

He's really bad.

We want bad things to happen to his campaign.

The worst thing that can happen to his campaign is him stepping down.

And yes, I understand that Kamala Harris is the most likely replacement.

Okay.

So you might not be afraid of Kamala Harris, and there's good reason for that.

I will say

that when you look at the polling and you look at it, you know, in a little bit of depth, what you see over and over again is Joe Biden is losing this election

partially because he's a bad president.

But what makes it more obvious than ever, and not just a razor-tight

margin, razor-thin margin, is the fact that he's old, right?

So many people, everyone on the Republican side, almost everyone that is independent, and about half of Democrats all agree this guy's too old to be president of the United States.

It is by far, by far and away, the Biden campaign's largest problem.

Now, we all know that by watching him try to act as president on a daily basis.

But he is overwhelmingly the biggest problem he faces is he's old.

And Kamala Harris will bring many of the same problems that Joe Biden has.

She is also associated with a bunch of policies that people don't like.

She also has a lot of verbal gaffes.

They're a little bit different.

They're the word salad variety rather than, you know, the Joe Biden doesn't know where he is variety, but they're similar in some ways.

You could say she's not a great speaker.

She, you know, is a good fundraiser for whatever reason.

She will have very positive media attention.

But the one thing she is not is old.

She is going to solve their largest problem.

And one of the reasons why this has been easy for Trump so far is he's been able to say over and over again, this guy is incoherent.

And then everyone goes to check his math on that and they say, you're right.

Finally.

Now, he's going to say things about Kamala Harris that will also be true, but that entire line of defense is gone.

And that's a big deal.

It at least makes this harder.

So, how do you approach this if you're Donald Trump?

Should you speak out more?

Should you speak out less?

What should you do?

We'll talk about that strategy coming back on the other side.

It's the Glenn Beck program with Pat and Stu.

What should be the Donald J.

Trump strategy now moving forward?

Seems like he's settled on, at least according to this

truth post that he did yesterday, seems to be encouraging Joe to stay in the in the race.

Well,

is that what you get out of that?

Because I think it's the opposite.

I don't know.

It's just taunting him, right?

But I do believe he thinks he can crush Biden.

Oh, 100%, which is why I think he should want to keep him in the race.

He should.

And I don't know that saying, look, they're not going to make this decision based on what Trump says, but like...

It's this thing, basically, if you've got Pat, starting quarterback and a backup quarterback, and there's a quarterback controversy going into a big game, if you have no idea which one to start,

the worst decision in the world would not be to go to the city of the team you're playing and listen to their sports radio station and see what they're rooting for, right?

Like,

what quarterback do they want?

And then just go with the opposite, right?

Like, I mean, again, it's a little crude, but

the fact that Donald Trump wants

Joe Biden in this race is not an argument for Joe Biden to stay in the race from the Democrats' perspective.

Right.

Right.

I mean, if anything else, Kamala Harris would at least

require a new approach and something else that they haven't really tried yet.

Now, look, he should beat Kamala Harris too.

I'm not trying to make this out to be the most difficult task in the world, but I will say it should be more difficult than Joe Biden.

Joe Biden can't, he literally can barely walk downstairs.

One of the things this has highlighted is how desperate the Democrat situation is because they've got nobody.

After Joe Biden, and he's nobody, really, but who do they have that youth other than Michelle Obama?

I knew you were going to do that.

Other than Big Mike, that's all they've got.

That's it.

Did you see the polling that came out the other day, which had

basically everybody

equal or slightly worse than Joe Biden facing Donald Trump, except for Michelle Obama, who was up by 11 points.

Jeez.

I mean, it's interesting if she'll actually resist this power because,

I mean, if she's, it's tough to resist being handed the presidency.

And certainly that's how this is being presented to her behind the scenes.

I've always maintained, though, that she hates the country too much to do this tough job.

It's a hard job,

and it's a huge pay cut for them.

I mean, the Obamas have made so much money since leaving office.

They're awesome.

Hundred millionaires.

I mean, they're millionaires many, many times over now.

I mean, just the, just the Netflix deal they signed was, is it 50 million, I think, if I remember correctly?

For what?

For what?

What have they produced?

I watched one movie that they did or were involved in in some way.

I can't even remember what it was.

It was terrible.

I don't know.

I can't even remember what it was.

It was like an action movie, and it was highlighted by a lot of conservatives because there's this one back and forth where they talk about race,

you know, white guilt or something, white privilege or something like that.

And it wasn't really the focus of the movie.

It just wasn't a good movie.

But I think

what you just highlighted, Pat, is a really important thing to understand if you think, oh, well, Joe Biden's just going to step down.

There are no Netflix deals coming for the Bidens.

That's for sure.

There's no interest in them.

There's no 5 million books sold coming for the Bidens.

He's not even going to hit the speaker tour.

This is it.

As all former presidents do, he's not capable of that.

He can't do it, first of all.

And there's no love for him.

There's not Barack Obama adoration for Joe Biden and even the party.

Yeah, not even close.

And this is somewhat similar to Hillary Clinton after she lost.

Right.

After she lost, they were like, we never want to see you again.

Like, they literally lost all affinity for Hillary Clinton real fast when she lost to Donald Trump.

The same thing will happen to Joe Biden.

The talk will change about Biden if he loses to Trump.

It will no longer be he was a great president.

What a wonderful man.

He's all these years of public service.

We can't believe he got old.

Oh, no.

It's going to be that he screwed this.

It's going to be more like the switch you've sort of seen with Ruth Bader Ginsburg, where she was the best person in the world.

We should keep her in office forever or in her seat forever.

Then she dies and they're like, how could you be so selfish?

Right.

Like that has been the turn on her.

Yeah.

and she's now seen as someone who whose legacy is largely defined by the idea that she stayed there too long and died when donald trump was president

i mean they no there's no uh

there it's not a kind group of people no you know no but it is a self-serving group of people yeah and it's also important to note that and look he may very well step down he i've never seen more pressure than this there's nothing that i can even compare it to yeah

on a sitting president i think that's true true.

Especially from the media, right?

Like the media, of course, does this to every Republican president.

They always say that they should step down.

And I mean, like, you think about the closest thing I could come up with, I was thinking about this, was

the

moments after

the Access Hollywood tape.

If you remember back to that time, Trump was still kind of wishy-washy like with his party.

There's still a lot of people who didn't like him.

Still a lot of people who were not won over by that he was going to be a good president.

That thing comes out.

It looks so bad.

There's a lot of Republicans who actually come out privately and publicly and say, we got to switch it out.

Like go with pants or something.

Like they, it was a desperate time.

They thought for sure they were going to lose at that point.

You know, but again, it was like a week before the election.

There's no real way to do that.

Right.

Then his name's printed on all the ballots already, right?

Like, there's no way to do it.

It was just kind of an insane fantasy football thing at that point.

Here, there's an actual chance it could happen.

And the pressure is not only a few officials here and and there and some donors speaking out to the media.

This is every friendly media source writing story after story after story after story to push him out.

So normally this would probably lead to you being out.

I mean, they even pushed out Andrew Cuomo, right?

Who is as focused on himself as even like a Gavin Newsom.

Like he's to the level of

self-love that only you think a Gavin Newsom could get to.

And even Andrew Cuomo folded under this type of pressure.

And I would say it was even less.

But the thing with Biden is everybody around him, they're all B-level officials.

They're all people who couldn't get the high-level jobs with Barack Obama.

They're all people that would never have these gigs without Joe Biden having power.

You think Anthony Blinken walks into a gig in the Kamala Harris administration?

No.

He's thrown in on the streets because he's a giant zilch,

right?

All these people around him are giant zilches.

You think Corinne Jean-Pierre has a job outside of Applebee's after this?

Like, no.

These people are all terrible at what they do.

And the only reason they have any influence, any importance in life is the fact that this man is in power.

So what do they do?

They're all encouraging behind the scenes.

You got to stick it out, Joe.

You got to stick it out.

Even though they say that Donald Trump is Hitler and you'd think maybe you wouldn't want Hitler to be put into office, at the end of of the day, what they care about is themselves.

They will say anything they need to say at any given moment

to make themselves look good and to do what they can do to hold on to power a little bit longer, to make themselves a little more popular in their cocktail parties.

You know, the ultimate example of this is Joe Scarborough.

He had some interesting things to say.

This shows the

evolution of Joe Scarborough's incredible conservatism over the last few months.

I mean, we start clear back in May

of 2024.

Now, Stu, how old were you back in May of 2024?

It's hard to remember, Pat.

You know, I can picture myself in a grainy black and white, maybe even sepia tone.

You know, like I, you know, like it's just been a long, long time since I could, but I was alive, I'm pretty sure.

I just don't remember how old I was.

I think I was four years old at the time.

Four.

Wow.

Yeah.

Four years old.

Yeah.

So this starts out with his comments from May 16th of this year and then June 28th and then what he had to say just the other day on July 5th.

Listen to this.

These Republicans never learn.

They constantly underestimate Joe Biden.

They constantly say he's an old man.

He can't speak.

And think about the first state of the union.

He's too old.

He's too confirmed.

He can't.

He blew him out of the water.

This last state of the union.

He blew him out.

Not only

prepared remarks.

It was

off-the-cuff remarks where he just mocked and ridiculed them and made them look like children.

And yet, and why should we be surprised?

They still

don't.

get it.

Still don't get it.

They're still mocking him, which plays right into his hand.

Oh, boy.

I think we have to ask the same questions

that we have asked of Donald Trump since 2016, and that is,

if he were CEO

and he turned into performance like that,

would any corporation in America, any Fortune 500 corporation in America, keep him on his CEO?

No, Joe.

I don't think they would.

It is a battle for the future of American democracy.

And now is a good time.

In June, thank God.

In June, not October.

In June.

June.

This is the last chance for Democrats to decide

whether this man we've known and loved for a very long time

is up to the task of running for president of the United States.

Is he capable of moving forward?

And he knows he needs to answer that question.

He needs to answer it in interviews.

He needs to answer it in press conferences.

He needs to answer it at the the NATO summit.

He needs to answer it in everything

that he does.

That's for the rest of us.

And that's Democrats, that's Independents.

That's Republicans of good faith.

Let's be smart.

Let's take a deep breath.

Okay.

Let's understand.

Let's understand.

Only July the 5th.

Right.

We could still.

Such an historic decision should not be made in haste.

I mean, that's embarrassing.

That's embarrassing.

Utterly embarrassing.

Do you realize that we still have access to what you said?

Like two months ago, we still, we know what you said.

I mean, if you're going to change your mind like that, and I don't know, has he never seen another example of the decline of Joe Biden?

That's hard to believe.

He's in the media, you know?

I mean, you would reference, you know, back in May, I said that Republicans were crazy.

Maybe Maybe they're not as crazy as I thought.

Don't you couch it that way, at least, to avoid some kind of embarrassment?

But no.

No, there's no...

You know what there is?

Pat, there's no soul.

There's no

man.

No soulless.

No soul.

Yes, no conscience, no shame, no soul.

Yep.

Like,

no human being could do what we just...

Like, without feeling just utter shame.

Yes.

How could you go through with that spectacle?

Don't know.

He also said in a clip that wasn't part of that montage that he was not only cogent, he was better than he's ever been, which I think was in March or April.

So, like, this guy has gone from better than he's ever been to he's got to get out of the out of the uh thank goodness it's only just

switch this guy out like what the this is like this is a person who makes decisions about what he says on the air only

to put himself in the best graces of whatever cocktail party he's going to.

And we should point out, up to and including embracing Donald Trump for years.

Which they did in 2015 and 16.

Yeah.

Religiously.

They loved him.

They loved the guy.

They put him on the air all the time.

They invited him to their wedding.

To their wedding.

Joe and Mika's wedding.

Donald Trump got an invite to that.

In fact, I think he offered to have it at Mar-a-Lago.

Didn't he?

This all sounds pretty close.

I know that they were definitely tight and they were at stuff.

I can't remember 100% the details of it, but

they were asking when he was on the show.

Yeah.

Joe and Nika were asking him what questions he would like to answer.

Yeah.

And you know what happened to this weekend to a couple of radio hosts who got questions from the Biden administration handed them and they just asked them on the air?

You know what happened to them?

They got fired.

Yeah.

Just like obviously Joe Scarborough Scarborough should have been fired years ago, and by the way, was for multiple radio shows, which he's still, my understanding, reworking the the time slot so he can get that right and get back on the air any day now.

Well, how do you do the third hour?

You can't they wanted to do two now, or now you have to do another one.

The ratings were so bad, they wanted to add an hour.

And by the way,

that's the type of solution you have.

When you have a show that's underperforming wildly for two hours, what you want to do is add a third hour, but you take a good decade to plan it.

This guy is just again soulless.

It's like he must not believe anything.

anything.

He'll say literally anything just a couple of weeks apart that are two things completely at odds with each other and act like it never occurred.

I mean, what?

There's almost some level of credit we have to give for it because it's such an inhuman activity.

It's so at odds with the way people normally feel about communication with other humans.

And he's somehow able to do it.

It's an incredible magic trick.

It's like watching a trapeze artist.

For years, I was living in constant pain.

There were days I couldn't move my hands.

I couldn't paint.

I couldn't write.

Honestly, it it was so bad I had a hard time even doing work.

I tried to tough it out and just grin and bear it until Tanya finally, after we went to the Mayo clinic, we went everywhere.

She kind of pretty much made me try it and it was amazing.

So where's your money going when you start investing it?

What kind of things are you funding?

You even know what those things are.

You know, you've done the research of the stuff you buy at the store, probably.

Like you don't buy Bud Light, maybe you skip Disney movies these days, you know, because of all the woke stuff that you don't want to support.

But what about your investments?

And it's not like, you know, a six-pack, like, you know, buying a different beer.

Okay, that'll do make some difference.

But what about your investments?

You might be talking about hundreds of thousands of dollars that are going to companies that are doing things that you do not want to do.

Constitutional wealth can solve this for you.

You can be building up a portfolio that, you know, gives you the best options to avoid things like DEI, ESG,

gambling, pornography, abortion, anti-family policies, drugs, and alcohol, whatever is important for you to avoid, they can help you avoid it.

You can reduce your investments in woke corporations and in so doing, help to fight the culture war with your most powerful weapon, your voice and your money.

This is your opportunity to build the parallel economy by working with an investment firm comprised of professionals who are patriots just like you.

These guys are great.

They have the same beliefs you have, and they can work with you to make sure that you're avoiding these types of companies.

They can work to make sure your conservative patriotic values come through in your investments as well.

It's not just about having a worldview and then dumping all your money into corporations that are opposing that worldview.

You don't want to do that.

We've got some breaking news, a couple of different things.

New letter out from Joe Biden to Congressional Democrats.

Give you one paragraph of it, Pat, and we can go through more of it later.

Now that you've returned from the July 4th recess, this is why he didn't send it earlier.

This is why he hasn't called you.

I want you to know that despite all the speculation in the press and elsewhere, I am firmly committed to staying in this race, to running this race to the end, and to beating Donald Trump.

And as we talk about this and mock Joe Scarborough, now Joe Biden is on the phone currently with Joe Scarborough.

Wow.

Begging for his political future.

And I think he should maintain it at least for a few more months, Pat.

It's the only right thing to do.

We'll see.

And Pat and Stew for Glenn today, 888-727-BECK.

If you'd like to participate in the show.

I'd like to participate in the show.

Then do I call that number?

Yeah.

Call that number.

I'm excited about it.

Yeah, I can't wait to talk to you.

All right, we've got the latest from Joe Biden.

I mean, the very latest.

He called in to the Joe Scarborough Mika main squeeze show or whatever it is, the Joe and Postum thing that he does.

And doesn't do well at all.

Oh, no, doesn't it?

No, it doesn't do well at all.

But we'll get to what Biden had to say coming up in one minute.

So, remember when hard-working, God-fearing, family-oriented people living in the country shared a little something called American values?

Do you remember these times?

The very idea

was like back in May 2024.

Oh, wow.

No wonder that I remember it.

It was like Joe Scarborough days, ancient history.

The very idea of contributing to companies that promoted a leftist and socialist and communist ideal would have been ridiculous.

Well,

I gotta say, those times are behind us now.

It seems like a lot of these companies embrace those values, but they could be in front of us again, especially with companies like Patriot Mobile.

We're on the front lines of protecting those American values for the next generation.

Patriot Mobile is America's only Christian conservative mobile company, and their mission statement is to passionately defend our God-given constitutional rights and freedoms and to glorify God always.

We complain so much about these companies that don't say things like that.

This one does say something like that and more importantly they mean it.

Every day they're involved at all levels and trying to do exactly that.

Plus, they offer dependable nationwide coverage so you can access any of the three major networks that everyone's on.

They have affordable, excellent plans, and their 100% U.S.-based customer service team is going to help make switching easy.

Patton Stuford Glenn, you know, I think the reaction from Democrats since the debate can only be described as chaos and panic.

They're in such a terrible position right now.

I love it.

I love to watch them twist in the wind like this.

It is so fun.

And it really does reveal

how

much they believe Trump is going to win.

Like, we've seen these controversies happen a million times.

What happens?

The media covers for them.

The media covers for the Democrats.

They make sure no one knows about the criticisms.

They make sure no one comes out publicly.

None of this stuff happens.

They don't write these stories.

They don't write.

The New York Times op-ed page came out and said, he's got to step down.

They don't do stuff like that.

No, they don't.

It's incredible that this is happening.

I mean, it really is.

You know, Glen Owen says, we should journal and we should write down these things because these are incredible times.

These are incredible times.

This does not happen.

Yeah.

But there was, it was unavoidable this time because it happened live

right in front of America's face.

Yeah.

And there was no way out.

I mean, you saw him do it.

Now they cover this up.

They make excuses all the time.

That was a cheap fake, that you didn't see what you think you saw.

Everybody knows what they saw debate night.

And it wasn't good.

It was a catastrophe.

It really was.

I mean, it's the president of the United States.

And you'd feel bad if it was just a guy who's 81 years old and he was mentally declining.

You'd feel really bad.

This is the president.

Right.

I mean, there's the, we came up with this on Studios America a couple years ago when this was happening all the time, which was the Joe Biden triangle of emotions?

Because every one of these moments with Joe Biden gives you

a rush of emotion.

And sometimes it's funny.

Sometimes it's sad.

And sometimes it's scary.

And you can plot each one of these gaffes on this triangle because you can kind of be like, sometimes it's both sort of sad and funny.

Sometimes it's sort of scary and sad.

That scary and sad is where that debate ended up for me.

I didn't find it funny at all.

No, it was not funny.

It wasn't one of those moments I was like, oh my gosh, Joe Biden's a moron.

It was like, holy crap, I have children who live in this country was my first thought.

And secondarily, I did have that thought as a human being watching this man deteriorate before our eyes.

This is something that we,

I mean, because of the advances of modern science, people live longer.

And because of that, they go through things like this.

They don't all go through things like this, especially at 81.

Many people are fine at 81.

Joe Biden, though, is an exception to that.

He is not fine.

He wasn't fine at 78.

No.

He wasn't really fine at any point in his life, but he's been much, much worse.

And the one thing I will agree with the media on is that it has gotten worse

and it is accelerating, it seems.

Yes.

And that's what happens with these kinds of issues.

I know.

And that is sad.

It really is.

As a human being, I don't want to see this happen to any other human being.

No, I don't either.

Larger picture for me happens to be the country and the fact that my children live in it.

And

I really am concerned with them exploding.

And this is why Jill Biden is getting such flack right now because she's partly responsible, at least in part responsible.

Yeah.

Any sane wife would be saying, Good God, Joe, I love you.

Come back.

Let's go back to Delaware.

Okay.

Let's take a vacation.

Yeah.

Go to Nancy.

It's time.

You've earned it.

You served this country for 50 years.

Good job.

Now let's go home.

Now, we should be clear.

He has not done a good job.

That's not true.

What the media is saying about this, like, well, he's done 50 years of service.

His three and a half years shouldn't be forgotten for 90 minutes.

He's sucked this entire time.

They all know he's sucked this entire time, but he's sucked in their direction this entire time.

So they can say these things.

The main reason they're saying them, though, is because they're trying to get him to agree to step down.

They're being nice to him.

We've gone now through the

convince him phase of this.

They'll be nice.

They'll say, you know what, Joe, you're going to be remembered as a hero if you step down right now.

It is an amazing thing.

You're going to be remembered as a hero.

We will make sure the media, we will make sure.

They've communicated this in all these op-eds.

We will make sure your legacy is secure.

Just step down now and it will take another step towards the stratosphere.

They could be holding out another carrot, too, and we'll see to it that Hunter doesn't go to prison.

Something like that.

Yeah.

Well, I think

we're crossing over there, Pat, from the carrot to the stick.

And now we are going to get, we're going to get a lot of, if you don't step down, you will be destroyed if you lose this race.

Your son will be destroyed.

We will make sure that all those bank documents that the media has said aren't real this whole time, there's not any evidence whatsoever that would indicate that Joe Biden.

What if we discovered that maybe they were real?

What if we were to look at all that, all that, all those business transactions and all of a sudden realize they're really important?

That type of stuff is going to be happening behind the scenes this week.

If he can make it through this week and maybe the next, I think he can hold on to this thing.

But man, it's going to be a rocky road.

Keep an eye on Barack Obama and what he says.

Yep.

Huge.

Because that's going to be paramount.

James Clyburn, another example.

Another person to watch.

Barack Obama.

Those two.

Those two are huge.

The biggest keys to this.

The Black Caucus overall is massively huge to this.

This has been their strategy, Pat, is to say, you know what they're saying behind the scenes to these, and somewhat publicly now, is,

hey, have you noticed all the people stepping out and saying he should step down are white?

This is really their answer to this.

Why is all only white people?

Is it because they don't like what we've done for black people?

Is it possible that's the real reason why?

And like, this is so cynical and pathetic, but that is their actual approach right now.

And they are going.

I mean, all indications are, Pat, they are going for this.

Yeah.

They want to hang on to this power, and I love every minute of it.

Stay in the race.

I know.

They've released a letter, Pat.

Yeah.

This is from Joe Biden to congressional Democrats.

Let me give you a couple quick highlights.

Fellow Democrats, now that you have returned from the July 4th recess, I want you to know that despite all the speculation in the press and elsewhere, I am firmly committed to staying in this race, to running this race to the end, and to beat Donald Trump.

I can res uh, he says he understands the pressures and the concerns by people that may be well-meaning, but he says I can respond to all of this clearly and unequivocally.

I wouldn't be running again if I did not absolutely believe I was the best person to beat Donald Trump in 2024.

He goes on to say there was a process, and this is a real threat.

to Democrats who are calling for him to step down.

He said, there was a process open to anyone who wanted to run.

Only three people chose to challenge me.

Now, left out of that statement is the fact that they pressured and arm-twisted everyone to stay out of the race.

Of course, this is what they did as normal things as presidents do, but that was definitely done.

He said, only three people chose to challenge me.

One fared so badly that he left the primaries to run as an independent.

Another attacked me for being too old and was soundly defeated.

The voters of the Democratic Party have voted.

They have chosen me to be the nominee of their party.

Do we now just just say this process didn't matter?

The voters didn't have a say?

I decline to do that.

And this does not seem like a guy who's on the verge of stepping out.

No, it doesn't.

I don't think he is.

I think that's too egomaniacal.

I think he's right in this to the end.

Stay in.

Yeah.

And he called in to the Scarborough Mika show today.

Oh, God.

Here's some of what he had to say.

Johnny is now the 46th president of the United States and presumptive

Democratic nominee Joe Blair

calling in to morning Joe right now.

Good morning, sir.

Hey, Mika, I'm more of a presumption.

I'm going to be the Democratic nominee.

Okay, well,

Mr.

President, that leads to the letter that we just received a few minutes ago.

And

I'm curious, there's a part of it where you talk about the fact that you got 14 billion votes, 87% of the vote.

It was an open process.

You only had three people running against you.

You have 3,900 delegates.

And then you asked this question.

Do we not just say the process?

He only had...

Keep in mind, this is a sitting president, the incumbent, and he was still primaried by three people.

Only three people is not...

That's not good.

It should have been zero people running against the incumbent sitting president.

So that's not much of a feather in your cap that three ran.

Yeah, these were the three who didn't care necessarily about their future in the Democrat Party.

Marianne Williamson, RFK Jr.

Dean Phillips.

Dean Phillips.

I mean,

right.

Right.

Right.

That we can see anyway.

You can't readily say, oh, yeah, Dean Phillips is going to be a powerhouse

in 28.

No.

But I will say, in Dean Phillips' defense, this was 100% of the reason he ran.

He specifically said,

I think he's going to look really old and he's going to lose.

Hello.

And he was totally right.

Now, of course, every Republican knew this as well,

but it is amazing that he got trashed.

They trashed him for running.

And he was totally right.

100%

right.

And it was one of the reasons.

The reason he jumped in, he jumped into the last minute was, hey, like, we don't know what's going to happen here.

We should have somebody on the ballot that people can choose if this breaks down.

Wow.

Well, he was right

the entire time on that.

Yeah.

And we should note that not only did they arm twist to keep out major contenders from challenging him, but also, if I remember right, there were actually states where they canceled the primary completely so no one could vote.

Oh, yeah, that's true.

Right?

Yes.

I don't remember which states they were, but I remember them going through this.

The party that absolutely loves democracy, just couldn't bring themselves to hold a primary so that their guy would be challenged at all.

Fascinating.

Now, wouldn't it have been, if you were a Democrat, wouldn't it have been a better process to maybe, I don't know, have a primary, maybe have some actual contenders in there, maybe to push Biden.

And I got maybe another idea.

Maybe Joe Biden shows up to some of the debates held in that primary.

So maybe this moment could have happened in January and you would have known what the hell you were dealing with.

Right.

I mean, I don't know how you didn't know, but like at least you would have had a better idea.

But what happens?

They let this go.

It now happens in front of everyone.

I still don't understand why they agreed to do the debate in the first place.

No, I don't either.

The most political malpractice.

I'm seeing this coming a mile away.

Yeah.

And there was precedent here recent precedent with katie hobbs in arizona who also decided you know what i'm not gonna i'm not it was katie hobbs right i can't remember her name she's literally a giant zero of a of a public figure but she was going up against carrie lake yep and she was like no carrie lake is too mean and she's like an election denier and i won't debate her and everyone's like well wait a minute you have to you're you're running she you're the democrat she's the republican you can't just avoid her and she said you know what Screw you.

I'm going to avoid her.

And she won.

And it worked.

She's now the governor of the state.

Sadly.

So it worked.

Why, if you were Joe Biden, just say, you know what?

I will not stand on the stage and debate a convicted felon.

Or whatever BS excuse you have to come up with.

It's exactly what I expected from them.

And that's what they should have done.

They didn't.

I mean, for the country, I'm glad they did it.

But for themselves, I don't understand it at all.

I think it was really the hubris of Biden who believed he could do well.

He's already supposedly committed to the next one.

Yeah.

Which, how could you possibly do that now?

He definitely shouldn't bail on it right now because it would show all sorts of weakness.

He should wait to bail on it until the beginning of September.

And I do still expect them to be.

I will expect it that as well.

Wait until they're fully committed that you're the nominee, and then you can bail on it.

You can't bail on it now.

I mean, you bail on it right now.

It would be a catastrophe.

All right.

We've got much more from this interview.

This impromptu call-in interview from the president to the Scarborough show coming up in one minute.

All right, let me tell you about pre-born.

This July, we celebrate the birth of our nation and remember the heroes who fought for our freedoms.

We did that just over the past week.

But, you know, some Americans today still don't have the freedom of life and liberty.

Tragically, every day, thousands of unborn babies are taken against their will.

What kind of free nation would actually do this sort of thing?

It seems impossible that we have to ask this question in 2024, but here we are.

Pre-born, incredibly important for this reason, and we really need to support them.

Pre-born is the largest pro-life organization in the country.

They're leading the charge to put an end to the atrocity of abortion.

Every day, they sponsor free ultrasounds for women, as well as providing help for up to two years after the baby is born.

When a mother sees her unborn child on that monitor, when she hears the heartbeat, she's twice as likely to consider choosing life for her baby.

Will you stand with pre-born?

One ultrasound is only $28, and five ultrasounds, only $140.

To donate, you just have to dial pound 250 and say the keyword baby.

It's pound 250.

The keyword is baby, or you can donate securely at preborn.com/slashbeck.

Patton Stuford Lynn today.

Here's a little more of that interview when Joe Biden apparently, I mean, I don't know, maybe this was set up in advance, but he called into the Joe Scarborough show.

It didn't matter that the voters didn't have a say.

I'm curious, is that an allusion also to Donald Trump and the fact that Democrats, you believe, may now be doing the same thing that Donald Trump tried to do in 2020, and that that is overthrow the popular will of Democratic voters.

Well, look, Democrat, Joe, let me say it this way.

The reason I've been out on the road so much all over the country, and while Trump is riding around in a golf cart, filling out his golf cart before, golf cart before he even hits the ball.

Hold on, hold on, hold on.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

Wait, whoa, wait a minute.

So he's filling out his golf cart, his golf card, His golf cart.

I think what he's trying to say there is he's filling out, he's cheating at golf.

He's filling out his golf card before he hits the scorecard.

Yes.

Before he hits the ball.

But he literally

can't even insult someone properly.

On a very predetermined, scripted line that he is undoubtedly reading from a piece of paper as he makes a phone call.

There's a reason this is not a video appearance.

This is a phone appearance because he's got notes in front of him that he can go to, that he's been prepped for, that he can just read.

And the word says card, and he says cart over and over again.

And let's see.

Back it up a little bit about 10 seconds or so so we can hear the build-up to that freaking car crash.

While Trump is riding around in the golf cart, filling out his golf card before, golf cart, before he even hits the ball.

So he's riding around in his golf cart.

Cart.

And he's filling out his golf card, which I think he means, you know, you'd say scorecard, right, normally.

Yeah.

And then he corrects himself from what seems to be the right use of card to cart

to get this insult in.

He can't even do it.

He can't.

What's so depressing about this, Pat, for our country,

is we all can look at this and say, well, the strategy is you go on shows like, you know, Joe Scarborough, or you go call Nores.

Yeah, go on congressional, go talk to congressional Democrats, do all these things.

And the strategy is clear how you would survive something like this.

He cannot execute it.

He is incapable of doing a coherent interview with George Stephanopoulos.

Yeah, you know what would be

if

he was really capable of doing this, they would go on a show like this one and allow you to ask him anything.

They wouldn't send you pre-approved questions to ask him that they had pre-approved answers for.

They would send him to a, I don't know, a somewhat hostile area, hostile territory.

And if they wanted to prove that the guy is

really of sound mind, that would be a good test.

All this stuff where he's going on black radio shows, he's going on

Joe Scarborough, he's meeting with George stephanopoulos who's a democrat operative from the from the clinton years i mean it's all friendly territory and it's a lot of them were pre-approved questions and answers so show us if he's really fine show us send him in to look put him on fox news and let's see how he handles that that would be fascinating yeah i mean because he can't do it so they'd never do that right and incapable he he

what was it I think it was.

Um,

we should come back to this because I think it was Nate Silver who talked about this months ago and said, like, hey, this is a real problem.

I think you shouldn't be the nominee.

This is, I think, in February.

And he said, like, here's a plan.

If they want him to be the nominee, here's a great plan to just come out.

Just do these things, these basic things.

Really reasonable requests.

Like, do a couple interviews publicly that we can all see.

They didn't do that.

And this is the fire that they are now burning in.

They've said it themselves.

Glenn Beck.

The world's biggest banks, especially those of China and Russia, have declared a full-scale attack on the U.S.

dollar.

They are now dumping dollars and buying record amounts of gold.

So what do they know that we don't?

Well, they know that our dollar is at a tipping point as the world's reserve currency.

Pat Ray, Stupor Gear for Glenn today, 888-727-BECK.

This story in Deadline about the Stephanopoulos interview

with Joe Biden last week.

Here's one of the things that Biden said about his debate performance.

It was a bad episode.

No indication of a serious condition, though.

And the way it's written, in deadline, no indication of a serious condition, Biden added in words even Ronald Reagan didn't have to say while in office.

Incredible.

Why is that?

I feel like he'sn't in this situation while he was in office.

Yes, he went on to get Alzheimer's, but it was not evident while he was in office like this.

I mean, they used to scream about it all the time.

I think as early as like 85 or 86, but Ronald Reagan wasn't Joe Biden at this stage.

Don't make me break out the exit interview he did with Tom Brokaw in 1989.

I might have to make you.

Don't make me do it.

Don't make me do it.

It is incredible.

He sounds more lucid

than Joe Biden has at any point in the last 50 years.

And here's a guy who actually did develop Alzheimer's and everybody knows.

Certainly possible that at the end stages of his

presidency,

the very minor beginnings of it were occurring.

Who knows?

I mean, there is one point in the interview where he sort of loses, and he's looking for a name of one of his favorite actors, I think, and he can't quite bring it up.

He can't think of the name of it.

It's about what the only thing is.

But I mean, if that's it, come on.

He's going over Pat detail after detail of his life.

He's describing it incredible detail.

And these are all stories that turned out to be, you know, true, unlike Joe Biden, who brings up stories all the time of totally made up things.

He said again the other day that his son died because of Iraq.

Yes.

Yes.

He died of cancer.

That's one of his favorite topics.

He said it again.

Bo died in Iraq.

No, he didn't.

His last one was he died as a consequence of Iraq.

And I guess that's his spin.

Like those, he's trying to say the cancer thing came from that.

Now, whether that's true or not,

it's highly controversial.

You don't know that.

We don't know that, of course.

But

at least he's now maybe modifying it a little bit point being that like he just is

like

the thing you just read about reagent

don't you feel like you're in an alternate universe yeah the fact that the mainstream media is saying things like this there's no

no historic precedent for it i've never seen anything like it they've i've never seen the media turn on a person like this that's a democrat in my life like they've done it to republicans like they would praise John McCain forever and then he runs for president.

They totally turn on him.

Mitt Romney's, oh,

he's one of the good ones.

Oh, he's the worst guy in the world.

He's putting dogs on his roof.

Like they do that stuff all the time, but they never do it to a Democrat.

They have totally turned on this man.

Every aspect of the coverage is negative.

And enjoy it while it lasts, because if his letter is an indication, And this interview is an indication he's going to stay in this race and they are going to totally turn back to the opposite side again.

They will praise him.

They will say he went into a laboratory and came up with a new medication that cured Alzheimer's.

That is what they will say.

They will actually say it.

And that is coming right around the corner.

I don't know.

What is the deadline for this, Pat?

Like, when does this, I've heard they say,

this decision, they want, they have a deadline of this week is what I've heard.

And this is just in like reporting, reading these tip sheets from inside Washington sources.

You can't always trust those things, but they want him to be out by Friday.

He's not going to.

I don't think so either.

I mean, he really is holding this.

Now, maybe there's some threat.

We were talking about this before you can make behind the scenes that says, hey,

hey, like Hunter Biden, you'd hate to see him go to prison for 20 years, wouldn't you, Joe?

Like, that type of stuff

could be effective against him.

Yeah, maybe.

Maybe.

Maybe.

I mean, he's certainly very selfish, but does seem to care about his crackhead son.

Yeah.

That's true.

I don't know.

That is true.

Plus.

I was just having a bad night.

I was exhausted

and dehydrated.

And the sun was in my eyes.

Wait, the sun?

The sun was in my eyes.

Really?

Yeah.

Because it wasn't.

And you were indoors.

The wind was blowing really hard.

The wind?

It was really windy.

And the sun.

Were the windows windows open?

But anyway.

I've said too much.

I've said too much.

That's a big thing.

This is one of the things, and if you've never noticed this, it is very consistent with Joe Biden.

It goes back long before these problems.

But when

I mean, this is an amazing thing to say, but when he loses his train of thought, he doesn't know where to go.

He's lost.

His defense mechanism.

Anyway.

Anyway, you shouldn't say.

Yes.

So what he acts as if he was about to reveal an international secret.

Yes, and then he catches himself.

I've pivoted because I can't.

I forgot I can't tell you that.

Yes.

That little secret about the CIA killing JFK.

As if this should make us feel better.

You were about to give away like this international secret, and you've just stopped yourself in the last season.

What should I tell you about UFOs and aliens are on this planet right now?

But anyway, look, look, I've got too much.

Let me get reset the prompter.

This happened the other day, Pat.

I don't know know if you caught this example.

Very minor one.

But

the line in the prompter was, I couldn't be prouder.

Okay.

I couldn't be prouder of whatever.

Okay.

And what he said was,

I couldn't ponder.

Now you could see you're reading a prompter.

You just see the word, you see prouder, but you in your head, like, oh, you think you see

ponder.

So now you're in a point where the sentence makes no sense.

I couldn't ponder, ponder what?

Like you're going to, I couldn't, like, it doesn't make any sense.

So he does what he does.

He goes, I couldn't ponder.

Oh, well, I shouldn't say that.

I couldn't be prouder of our military veterans or whatever it was.

So he actually even sticks with the line after he butchers it the first time.

Incredible.

And of course, like, look, you read prompters every day.

He does it a thousand times a day.

Even at small gatherings, he's reading prompters.

Everybody has a moment where they misread a word and they have to kind of backtrack.

You try to cover it, right?

Like you try to make yourself, yeah, you know, and in worst case scenario, you just say, oh, geez, I mean, I totally misread that, and you move on with your lives.

He acts as if he was about to reveal an international secret and he just barely stops himself and resets and reads the exact same line.

Good thing I didn't go any further because I'd get in trouble.

He's like,

We're about to send nuclear weapons to

Ukraine.

Anyway, look, I just

so good.

It's so good.

I love this era.

It's sad.

It's scary.

Yeah.

But like, it is really fun to be on the side of the media.

Yeah.

Like, all of a sudden, they disagree with everything we say.

I feel at times reading the New York Times where I'm like, gosh, they're going a little too far on this one.

I've come to that point.

Like, I think they're being too critical of this man.

That's kind of where I was on the headlines all weekend of

Joe Biden said that he was a vice presidential black woman.

Did you read those headlines?

Yeah, and I thought, okay, yeah, he kind of did, but he kind of misspoke there.

He said, I'm vice president.

I'm proud of vice president, black woman.

He's really talking about Kavala.

And you know, yeah.

Of course, you know, but that's not how he phrased it.

So he butchered it.

There's no doubt about it.

But still, was it that big of a deal?

Like,

there's no way it would be reported.

It almost, it felt like one that we might roll out as a joke and just kind of note, is he a black man or a black president?

That's interesting, but I didn't know that.

But just this, no big deal.

And this is central to their news coverage.

I mentioned this the other day.

This is the day after the debate.

This is Politico, their homepage.

Listen to these headlines.

Could you ever imagine?

Politico.

Democrats have no way to spin this.

We break down Biden's disastrous debate.

Number one.

Wow.

Number two, WTF.

Panic Dems start looking for alternatives to Biden.

Third headline.

Here's how Democrats could replace Biden.

This is in one day they came up with all this.

Wow.

Democrats hoped the debate would reset the campaign, but not like this.

The movement to convince Biden to not run is real.

The worst debate performance in American history.

What world do I live in in the media where the media does these things?

I've never seen anything like it.

I've never seen anything like it.

And that's political.

The New York Times, I would argue, was worse.

They have been all over him from the second that debate ended.

They realized it was that bad.

And we've said this a hundred times, Pat.

When you feel like, oh, gosh, like, how can they not see this?

They do see it.

They know.

everything that you know when it comes to Biden's decreasing abilities mentally.

They've known it the whole time.

They've seen it the whole time.

Yeah.

They've been hiding it from you.

They have to because they watch the press conferences and the speeches just like we do.

So they, yes, they know.

They know for a fact, but they just cover it up until now.

Yep.

But because the debate was live and 50 million people were watching it,

there's no hiding that.

Yeah.

And it's important to note:

why they're doing this is not because

they feel it's the right thing and they're good journalists.

No, okay.

The reason they're doing this is also not because, oh, you know what?

It's so obvious

they can't do the opposite, what they would normally do this time.

It was too obvious to everyone.

It's not even that.

The only reason this is happening with the media is today

they believe Joe Biden will lose.

And today they believe they can do something about it.

Today, they believe saying these things will give Democrats a better chance of winning.

Next week, the week after, the week after that, if Joe Biden stays in here and there's no other alternative, they will totally switch this approach.

This will feel

like a mirage to us.

It will feel like it didn't even happen.

They will totally change everything they've done over the past few weeks.

If I may quote Joe Biden himself.

I remember that part of the debate.

Yeah.

And you can't argue with it.

You can't.

And we beat Medicare.

Patton Stewart for Glenn today, triple eight seven two seven BECK.

I think we've gotten through two sentences in the interview.

The call-in interview to Joe Scarborough today from the president.

We are, yes, you're right.

That's bad.

That's bad.

You know,

Glenn's in the Radio Hall of Fame.

We're not.

Right.

I mean, what are you going to do?

We only got two sentences.

There's a lot more to get through on this because these are the most important interviews of any.

I think that Stephanopoulos interview was one of the most consequential interviews.

Yeah, and they knew it.

And they knew it.

And what's scary about that is he still couldn't get up for it.

Right.

You know,

I think like if you have the normal scale of politicians from like one to ten, how do they do?

Every piece of Joe Biden content falls between one and three on that scale.

So like the best thing Joe Biden can do is a three out of ten.

And then, you know, obviously the debate was a zero out of ten.

I thought that was like a two out of ten.

It was not his worst performance.

He was, yeah, you know, he made mistakes.

He still struggled along the way.

Yeah.

But the fact that he couldn't get up for one interview with

a guy who was

like a six out out of 10.

Yeah, six out of 10 would have really helped.

You know, and we're not expecting a 10 out of 10.

No one is.

Even if he did a three out of 10, maybe he would have been okay.

And I don't think that he hurt himself particularly in that interview.

And Stephanopoulos, I thought, was

pretty decent.

Yeah, firm and persistent.

It just seemed like he was trying to take him out.

But he also wasn't giving him a free ride.

He kept following up when he would avoid the questions.

It was decent.

I didn't think it was terrible, which says a lot, right?

Like in, we should have all felt that interview was terrible, right?

At the end of the day, what we should have felt like is, oh my God, are you kidding me?

They're just letting him off the hook because that's what Democrat, a guy who's a Democratic operative would have done in any other situation we've ever lived through.

And yet here is Stefanoboulas kind of like good.

I mean, even, you know, Tapper and Dana Bash, pretty, pretty good in the debate.

I know there weren't problems with them.

Yeah.

Like, that's shocking.

When When you don't really notice their performance, that's a good performance for the moderators.

Yes, you know, I would agree.

And so they didn't piss me off.

So

I thought it was fine.

But let's see if we can get through at least one more sentence from his call-in today.

Even hits the ball.

But anyway,

he hadn't been anywhere in 10 days.

I've been all over the country, number one.

And I've gone over the country for several reasons.

One, to make sure my instinct was right about the party still wanting me to be the nominee.

And all the data, all the data shows that the average Democrat out there who voted, the 14 million of them that voted for me, still want me to be the nominee.

This is true.

Not at all true.

It's a lie for a second.

Not at all.

That's a lie.

Absolute lie.

Well, every, not only does every report we have from internal Democrats, donors, all these things telling them that, I guess his argument here is, oh, the voters want me.

80-something percent of the population is saying he's too old to run.

Including something like 60% of Democrats.

Yeah.

So there's no data to support what he's talking about here.

And, like, they, look, the American people do not want him to be the nominee.

No.

They do not.

They do not want it.

They want this national nightmare to be over.

They might want another liberal.

Many of them do.

But they do not want Joe Biden to be the liberalist.

No, the confidence in him is completely gone

We gotta stay together

if we're gonna survive.

Stand up straight

and hold the line.

It's a new day, a time to rain.

Welcome to the fusion

of entertainment and enlightenment.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

With Patton Stewart today, 888-727-B-E-C-K,

the criticism,

constructive and otherwise, continues in the debate fallout for Joe Robinette Biden.

I mean, the things

they're critiquing right now are pretty interesting.

Even how he looks in person and how much work he's had done.

Interesting.

It's fascinating, too.

Yeah.

Every once in a while it slips my mind that his middle name is actually Robinette.

And every time I hear it, I find it to just be delightful.

It is.

It is delightful.

I don't know why.

We'll get into that delightful aspect and others coming up in one minute.

The next time you're just standing somewhere in your home, I want you to do something.

Have a look around and think for yourself, if I wanted to put this home on the market, what would I need to do to get it ready?

Well, when you've calmed down from the panic attack after realizing that the answer is so much stuff, it's now time to realize a simple fact.

What you'd need is a real expert, a real estate agent you can trust, because that agent is going to know the people he or she trusts to do all those things and get them done in time.

And I will also add to this, Pat, a lot of times you think you have to do stuff you don't have to do.

Oh, for sure.

You're like, oh, I need to get this painted and this fixed and this.

No, you don't.

Almost always these are bad decisions.

We were going to completely remodel our master bathroom

because it's a little dated, you know, 2008.

Our realtor came in and said, nope, just do the countertops.

So we did.

And you saw that.

And it worked out really well.

Saved a fortune.

And

probably saved us $50,000 or something just from that.

Incredible.

Yeah.

That is

so important to have the best real estate agent.

This happened with us as well.

We were selling a home and it was a big thing.

We were thinking about repainting all these rooms.

We're like, nope, leave them the way they are.

And it saves us thousands of dollars.

This can be you as well.

Realestateagents I trust.com, realestate agentsitrust.com.

It's a free service to you.

The name kind of says it all.

It's realestate agentsitrust.com.

Just to give you an idea of what we're talking about with the liberal media sort of getting getting together and encouraging Biden to leave and to get out of the race,

New York Times columnist Nicholas Kristoff on why Joe Biden should drop out of the race.

He said, quote, I think we can get a president who's coherent in the evening.

Unquote.

Well, yeah,

that would be something.

That's based, of course, if you're not aware on the fact that people have said Biden's strongest between 10 in the morning and 4 in the afternoon.

After that, it's a crapshoot, and you might not get something you like there.

So

he's obviously not coherent other than those times.

And there is something called, is it called

dusk dementia or something to that effect?

Yeah.

Where you're worse at night.

Like you don't really, it doesn't necessarily affect you as much certain times of the day.

Right.

Which is why you schedule everything 10 to 4, right?

Yep.

You know, there's also...

That's why you call a lid on the day sometimes at 9 or 10 in the morning because you're not doing well that time of day either.

It's like there's a exercise-induced asthma.

So like you're not a person who necessarily has asthma all the time, but like if you're running around, it's really hot outside, you might need to hit that inhaler.

And you have the same effects as asthma, but it's not something that's recurring like a lot of people have it all the time.

Right.

This is, that's what this is.

Yes.

It's just nighttime.

Yeah.

Nighttime-y.

Right.

You can't, oh, you can't be like, yeah, you can't be around it.

What about that 3 a.m.

call?

This is so fascinating.

If, like, the guy who's running for president right now, Donald Trump, was hit with that exact claim that in the middle of the night, he wouldn't be ready to be your leader.

You need someone who's always ready.

Now, of course, Hillary Clinton isn't that person either, but really for other reasons.

I don't, people say, like, oh, you guys are just beating up because he's a Democrat.

I wouldn't say that about Hillary Clinton.

I wouldn't say her problem is she has dementia and she can't speak at night.

Like, she she seems to be

equally bad during the day as the night.

Right.

With it in a way that, like, she still makes really bad decisions.

She's really a terrible politician.

She would destroy the country.

All those things are true.

With Biden, it's true too.

With Kamala, it's true.

But Kamala and

Hillary, I wouldn't say, like, oh, God, I hope something bad doesn't happen at night.

You know, by the way, Pat, the time in which other societies around the earth are in day.

So, like, it might be like 4 p.m.

for them.

I mean, it kind of is important.

You have someone who can snap up.

I'm pretty sure

that when China attacks Taiwan eventually,

it will be in that 10 to 4 Eastern time window where they know that it's really not fair

if they do it some other time of the day, like early morning or in the evening or late at night.

That would be unfair.

Like, can we drop like a schedule for everyone to like follow?

Like a shared note that says, you know, attack at these times.

Yeah.

And remind them of the time difference because, you know, of the time zones.

It's going to be a different time in China than it is in New York City or Washington, D.C.

So you got to remind him of that, too.

And look, the fact that between 10 and 4, he's more coherent does not mean he has any connection to reality in those times.

No, that's right.

One of the things in the George Stephanopoulos interview, which by the way, occurred between the hours of 10 and 4 p.m.,

10 a.m.

and 4 p.m.,

he said one of the reasons you should vote for him is because he stopped Vladimir Putin.

It's like, what, on God, what the hell are you talking about?

Vladimir Putin came in, tried to take over the country, was pushed back not by Joe Biden, but by the Ukrainian army, who at the beginning really did a lot to be able to push this back.

It was, I mean, I think largely pretty incredible that they stopped that.

Yeah.

And then after that had

the battle lines were drawn,

the sides were basically where they were going to be, we started funneling $150 billion

into the society, which has since lost ground.

Right?

Like,

he hasn't been able to take over the whole country, but he has increased the amount of territory he's taken from that period and

is largely understood to be currently winning.

Not to mention,

all of the sanctions that he put on Russia seem to have failed.

He's now made closer ties with North Korea and China and our ally, India.

Like, this has backfired to a level of cataclysm that honestly, I don't even think we would have predicted.

Now, I am highly worried that this ends in nuclear war.

To this moment, I am very worried.

It's honestly, if there's one thing I'm worried about more than anything else, it's probably that.

Like, if you were talking about the biggest threats to us, to our children, to our families, Pat, I think the number one thing I would worry about would be Biden does something stupid that enters us into what ends up in a nuclear war.

I do think that's the biggest threat the globe faces today.

So I'm not, you know, minimizing it at all, but like for him to brag as the other one he said is

student loans.

He's been forgiving student loans.

A situation in which he has been shot down by the Supreme Court over and over on.

He's blatantly broken the Constitution, upended our entire form of government to achieve, and then at every step, the courts have said you can't do that and stopped it.

And then brags about it.

And then brags about it as if this is one of his central achievements.

Yeah.

I mean, he's terrible at this job.

You know?

Do you ever get to that point where you're just like, there's nothing more

than you just need to note he's bad at this.

You see it with like head coaches at times of your favorite team.

You're just like, well, this guy just doesn't know what he's doing.

It's, this has just failed.

Yeah.

And it's okay to admit that.

On top of that, in addition to those things, he is also completely incoherent and has dementia.

Which is not the reason to not put him back into office.

It's just another reason to not put him back into office.

The reason is he's been a terrible president.

And it's interesting because uh some of this is actually being admitted to by uh the left-wing media and in fact that they're even they're even bringing things up that we don't i i don't think i've ever brought up the fact that he's had work done yeah cosmetic surgery done

but it's being brought up now by left-wing media It's weird.

So there's this Olivia Nuzzy

piece that came out in New York magazine, I believe.

Yeah, New York magazine.

And it is called The Conspiracy of Silence to Protect Joe Biden,

which is a remarkable story.

Now, she does do some, she's not like a

walk-the-line Democratic operative as a journalist.

I don't think that's fair.

I think she's done some good journalism over the years, and she's a bit of a contrarian at times.

So like, it's not necessarily like, okay, this is how you'd say you know, the mainstream CNN operates on a daily basis.

She will ask questions and point out uncomfortable things.

But like, honestly, I think this is almost too far.

At one point, she's, at one point, she says he doesn't seem real.

This is, let me give you an extended excerpt here.

This is true back in 2020 because she basically says he doesn't even seem like a real person.

This is true even in 2020.

His face had then an uncanny valley quality that injectable inficionados call low trust, if only by millimeters, his cosmetically altered proportions knocked his overall facial harmony into the realm of the improbable.

Wow.

His thin skin, long a figurative problem and now a literal one,

was pulled tightly over cheeks that seemed to vary month to month in volume.

This is like me.

Yeah, that's quite a critique.

Under artificial light and in the sunshine, he took an unnatural gleam.

He looked well inflated.

His eyes were half shut or open very wide.

They appeared darker than they once had.

His pupils dilated.

He did not blink at regular intervals.

The White House often did not engage when questioned about the president's stare, which sometimes raised alarm on social media when documented in official videos produced by the White House.

The administration was above conspiratorial chit-chat that entertained seriously scenarios in which the president was suffering from a shocking decline most Americans were not seeing.

If the president was being portrayed that way, it was because his political enemies on the right who promoted through what the press often termed cheap fakes, a caricature, an adult creature unfit to serve.

They would not dignify those people or the people doing the bidding of those people with a response.

It goes on to mention multiple incidents where this sort of stuff, the stuff you saw at the debate was noticeable that she saw, that she was reporting on, some of which as early as January and April of this year.

And some people have asked the question, like, hey, like,

maybe you shouldn't report to that in January and April.

Like, why is this coming out now?

And I, I mean, like, her stories are very long and wordy.

And, you know,

I can understand that it takes time to write them.

And I'm sure.

Six months, though.

That's basically what she said.

She said, I work on most of my stories for months.

This piece is about a conspiracy of silence that made people reluctant to talk.

I've been chasing down what I heard since January.

That's how long reporting takes.

And you can believe that or not.

I mean, I am happy that this stuff does come out at least.

And he hasn't been on the decline just since January either.

It's been years.

Years.

It's been years.

Yep.

So that's a lame excuse.

But still, for her to be mentioning it now, it's pretty amazing.

I thought to myself, would anybody ever write that about a woman?

No, probably not.

Can you imagine if they came in and they were like, hey, Nancy Pelosi and they wrote that about Pelosi?

You would be lit on fire for doing that to somebody.

Yeah.

Like, the fact that it's a guy and he's had a bunch of plastic surgery or whatever, like, it's okay to just like mock his appearance and say he looks like he's like transparent.

That's okay.

I mean, I don't really care.

I don't really care, honestly, if you do it to a woman either.

And frankly, I guess I'm a bad person.

I think it's okay

to point out these things.

You know, we pointed it out about Nancy Pelosi.

I've never had any trouble saying it about her.

But But like, I think in left-wing media circles, this would be something you'd be me-tooed over.

Oh, yeah.

No question.

Hey, it's almost to that level.

Fascinating.

Triple 8-727.

Back.

More coming up in one minute.

All right.

It might be hard to keep a good company down, especially one that puts out the best products consistently, the way MyPillow does.

We've been singing their praises for years on this show because Glenn actually uses their products.

So do I, by the way.

I freaking love their slippers, man.

I have a pair of their slippers and it is, they are on.

Like, it's nighttime.

I'm walking around the house.

Those puppies are on.

They're really, really comfortable.

They keep my toes warm.

I love them.

MyPillow has seen amazing success despite cancel culture seeing to make sure that basically they won't be able to go to box stores to sell any products anymore.

These big box stores kind of kicked them all out.

And, you know, you've been fighting with MyPillow to make sure that they can actually, it's a good company and they make good products.

And that's what we should be judging these things on.

In fact, because of this and you know, the change in retailers, they want to pass on savings directly to you to show their

appreciation for your support to get you familiar with their other products.

They're having a $25 extravaganza when you use the promo code Beck.

It's a two-pack of multi-use MyPillows, just $25.

MyPillow sandals, $25.

There are six-pack towel sets.

You guessed it, $25.

And for the first time ever, premium my pillows with all new giza fabric, any size or loft level, just 25 bucks.

Go to mypillow.com and click on the radio listeners special.

They got a square for that.

That gives you these $25 deals.

Free shipping, orders over $75.

Use the promo code BEC or call them 800-966-3117, 800-966-3117 for this amazing offer.

It won't last.

It's 800-966-3117 for MyPillow, 10-second station ID.

So, how much have we got for now?

The Joe Scarborough interview.

How far are we along on that now?

We've gotten through

three sentences.

We got through three sentences.

We're over a minute in now.

I'm actually impressed by this on that one.

We should come back and do a little bit more of this because it's a big deal.

Or we could do it here.

We have got a few minutes if you want to do some of it.

Yeah.

Let's go ahead and see if we can get through one more line at least.

Let's see.

Want me to be the nominee, number one.

Number two: the idea that Donald Trump

has gained in any substantial way,

his arguments to why he should be president, is anywhere convincing than it was two weeks or three weeks ago.

It's just not there.

And

we're just starting to focus on Trump.

Good look.

I attended services, spoke to over 600 people of Mount Airy Church of God and Christ in Philly.

I stopped by campaign field offices with John Frederman and Madeleine Dean, both strongly supporting me.

The president and the First Lady, we spoke at a campaign ice cream Social for APSMI, Council 13 in Harrisburg, 40 minutes after we spoke with supporters.

Stop by Denham Coffee.

I mean, I was with the

Pennsylvania.

Strongly supporting me.

When you're a guy that everyone's saying might have Alzheimer's, I don't know that bragging about ice cream socials is the right play, just strategically.

What do you think about bragging about going to a coffee place?

Is that a high-end presidential activity?

Kind of no.

Everyone should be kind of expecting you to be able to handle a coffee outing.

This is where we are, though.

And interestingly, when he goes into these places,

he was talking about the crowds that he draws.

I think this was with Stephanopoulos, where he mentioned the crowds.

And Stephanopoulos said, you might not want to play the crowd.

The crowd game

because Trump, he brings in huge crowds.

Again, when would that be?

Like three or four people show up.

Yeah, you're right.

Who would say that to him?

The media would never say that to him.

Never.

Actually, your crowds suck compared to Trump's is basically what he said.

You wouldn't say they wouldn't say that to him.

No, they would never do that.

And now they do it.

It's so fun.

This is how they should be acting all the time.

This is what the media should be.

Yeah.

And we're seeing this weird, scattered shower of journalism.

And all of a sudden,

we're seeing this vision of a place where the media does their job.

Imagine if this is like real life all the time.

Yeah, wouldn't that be something?

We all know it's about to go away.

It's so sad.

It's like

it's like you're

been wanting to date this one girl in high school, and there's one magical night, and she decides she's going to pay attention to you for that one night, and then you're back at school on Monday, and she doesn't talk to you again.

This is all happening.

It's just going to go away, Pat.

I know.

It's all by the time Glenn Beck is off vacation, likely this is all gone.

This one magical two-week period where the media does their job.

Are you of the mindset now that they're going to replace him?

Or are you still thinking, as I do, that he's not, he's not going to step aside?

I don't think he is.

I don't think it's impossible that they replace him.

Yeah.

I don't think it's above 50%, though.

In my mind, I think

it's it's all about him and whether he decides that he's going to drop out.

And his two major advisors in this decision are Jill Biden and Crackhead Hunter Biden.

Those are the two people helping him make this decision.

I don't know.

Do you think there's any reason why Hunter Biden might want his dad in touch, you know, in control of the DOJ?

Do you think maybe there's some incentives there?

And Jill, like, she's close to it.

She loves it.

She's, she thinks she's president herself.

Yes.

So I, I, my instinct is to believe also that usually the most boring option is the one that happens.

Like these fantasy league trades and like they don't wind up playing out, you know?

And it's like, you know,

normally the callers to sports radio who are like, what if we trade our failing third baseman for Aaron Judge?

Usually that doesn't happen.

Right.

Like, you, you know, that's why it's one of the reasons why I made the bet with Glenn, with Michelle Obama.

Like it could happen.

Yeah.

And I'm much more scared about it now than I've ever been.

But it still feels unlikely.

Even after all this happened, it seems unlikely.

And the betting markets are reflecting that possibility.

But right now, it seems, you know, I think the betting markets are showing it pretty much even.

It's bounced back and forth a bunch of times.

And when I say even, I mean between Joe Biden and Kamala Harris as the nominee of this party in which he's already won the primary and been on stage as the candidate.

Oddly enough, they still see it about a 50-50

chance.

So

I don't know.

I mean, at this point, it feels like he is going to hold on.

He's certainly indicating that.

And I think, outside of a threat, wow, and the markets have reversed on this now.

Joe Biden's 60% chance to be the nominee.

Kamala Harris, 24.

That's totally different than it was a couple of days ago.

Because he is maintaining, he's firmly in this race.

He's in it to win.

Glenn Beck.

NYPD officer Jonathan Diller's tragic and shocking story made national headlines.

During a traffic stop, Jonathan was shot and killed by a career criminal.

His was the first in the line of duty death for the New York Police Department in two years.

Throughout his three years of service, Jonathan made more than 70 arrests.

He was awarded with excellent police duty on several occasions.

Jonathan, who was 31 years old, left behind a wife, Stephanie, and his one-year-old son, Ryan, brothers and sisters as well in the New York Police Department family.

At his funeral, his wife said, my husband died a hero, but he also lived as one.

For this family, nothing will ever replace the loss of a husband and a dad, but thanks to the kindness of friends like you, Tunnel to Towers Foundation was able to pay off the mortgage on the Diller family home.

Help heroes like Jonathan and their families donate $11 a month, please, to tunnel to towers at t2t.org.

That's tthe number two t.org.

As the mainstream media perpetuates the left's insanity, we're helping you fight back one truth at a time.

More Glenn back next.

Welcome.

Pat and Stu for Glenn today, 888-727-BECK.

If you want some great merch,

where would I go?

Well, if I wanted merchandise,

you know, like with really funny phrases on it.

I'll give you one place to go.

Stu DoesMerch.com.

Okay.

Got some good election stuff going on, including the Biden elderly man with a poor memory line.

I think you'll enjoy that, especially right now.

Bidenomics strikes strikes back, a bunch of different stuff going on there.

A couple of other things as well, Pat.

After the Stephanopoulos interview, we did one of these live broadcasts where we go on YouTube and just kind of break down everything that happened.

If you didn't watch the Stephanopoulos thing, don't want to watch it, but want to know what went on.

If you go to our YouTube page, youtube.com slash stew doesamerica, we have a live video up there, but all the analysis holds up there at the beginning.

We went through everything that happened and broke it all down.

Something I think you'll like.

It's still up there.

It's got a bunch of views and I think you'll like it.

Just follow the channel.

And if you click the bell for notifications, you'll get all these live broadcasts we're going to be doing throughout the election season.

We're going to be doing a lot of these after big events, big speeches, you know, convention stuff, breaking news.

Just pop it on YouTube.

So it's a great follow, I think.

Youtube.com slash Stew DoesAmerica.

Right after this show today, by the way, I'll be going on with Megan Kelly on Megan Kelly's show that airs right after this show on Sirius, but also her podcast comes out and it will be a lot of fun.

I don't know what we're going to talk about, though.

Nothing to talk about.

I just feel like there's nothing out there.

Disney characters.

Your favorite Disney character, maybe?

Maybe that would be the topic.

Yeah.

You know, today.

That's usually what I turn to when there's nothing else.

Nothing else going on.

Nothing going on.

Pluto or Goofy?

Man.

It's a tough one.

It is.

I mean, are they both dogs?

What is...

One talks and one doesn't.

Is that right?

I think so.

Oh, my God.

And this is the type of debate we're going to bring up on Megan Kelly's show later on today.

So make make sure to join us.

And I know, Pat,

you've got

some stuff going on as well.

Maybe some other things we can purchase.

Yeah, maybe you could eat some cookies while you watch

your channel.

I would love, for instance.

That's great.

The most delicious cookie that's ever graced the planet.

In fact, Kexie cookies.

Right now, too, not only do you get the delicious cookie, the best gourmet cookie you'll ever eat, but you'll get them at 15% off right now.

15%

off at K-E-K-S-I.com.

kexi.com best cookies you'll ever love them love them love them uh all right so um

i we've surprisingly been talking about uh

joe biden and uh his wonderful performance at the debate and the fallout since then and we got some uh some comments uh from you for instance ron in west virginia uh hey ron you're on the glenn peck program with Patton Stu.

Hi.

Hey, Patton Stu.

You guys should be in the Hall of Fame.

If I had a card to stick in the machine and we have churches, yay, go Pat and Stu.

Another story altogether, gentlemen.

I'm calling to make a statement that most people don't see as a probable outcome of this election.

All right.

And that Joe Biden can actually still win this.

Let me lay some background for you.

Okay, you've got more illegals entering the country than the total of 38 states.

And in those 38 states, you've got a plurality of those states that allow for you to go in, get a driver's license, and then turn around and be registered to vote, regardless of the fact that you're not a citizen.

You can go in and do that.

And then you add California, you add New York, Illinois, New Jersey, and all these other states that do the same thing.

You go in,

you've got like six, seven million votes from illegals, possibly.

And on top of that, you've got what?

Drop boxes boxes in Minnesota, right?

You've got

people harvesting, ballot harvesting, and you don't have anybody watching to see if these are bona fide ballots.

They've done this with the care homes in the last election, where they found the signatures to be of the same

appearance, like somebody's signing off on

hundreds of these ballots.

So

I'd say, buyer, beware.

Who in the world in the Democratic Party would allow for a guy with 36%

approval

because of his age

run for president?

That's a loser right there.

Nobody's ever done that before.

So they must, I'm thinking perhaps they've got something up their sleeve.

You know, they've got, what's his name, Jake Sullivan, his attorney Bauer, and these other people in the wings that are doing all the choosing for him.

And that, I think, is a foregone conclusion because he doesn't seem to know where he is half the time.

Jeez.

Appreciate it, Ron.

There's a good chunk of that, I think, is part of their plan, right?

They thought just having Trump on the ballot was enough

to get enough opposition.

They didn't really have, they could make this all about Trump.

Unfortunately, this debate performance, I think, shook that up a little bit.

And to his point, Pat,

I would agree with him that

Biden can still win this.

He mentioned the illegal votes and all that.

I mean, this is hard to say, but even now,

he can win it just normally.

He's down by two or three points.

Yeah.

I mean, look, a normal polling error, the normal polling error we have, if it goes in the favor of Democrats, unlike how it's gone in Trump's favor the last couple of elections, the polling error.

But if it goes in the favor of Democrats, I mean, he's right there.

I know.

It's really uncomfortable right now because it is so close.

And in order to overcome any suspected shenanigans that anybody's going to do, it would have to be a fairly large margin of victory for Trump to overcome whatever people fear.

That's why I think Trump needs to win significantly.

Five, six, seven points.

And like be hard to make that up.

And it would be,

you know how difficult it would be.

If you remember the biggest blowout election that we've had recently, it would be McCain Obama.

And clear back in 2008.

In 2008,

of like recent, modern history.

Not going back to Reagan, but like modern history-ish.

Like Reagan.

16 years ago.

Yeah, 16 years, like since, I don't know, 2000.

What was the margin?

Do you remember?

It was nine, 54.45.

Oh, wow.

If I remember right.

It was right around there.

Now, that

felt massively like there was no chance of McCain winning that election.

It didn't feel like it was even remotely close and is looked back at as a giant blowout.

It was less than 10 points.

You know, the fact that we're seeing polls right now where Trump, at least among registered voters, is up by nine is remarkable.

And that is not what the left wants.

If these polls still keep getting worse, you could see a situation where Biden gets, I don't know, maybe shamed into leaving.

But I don't know.

If it sticks around, and the polling averages all show him down by about three points, and it's like, eh,

I think he can totally,

number one, justify staying in at that level.

And number two, has an actual chance.

Again, the media is going to switch back to praising him.

I don't know.

I mean, I think it's unlikely.

I think Trump is the heavy favorite.

But, like, even like, you know, Nate Silver, who's been super skeptical of Biden and said he should have gotten out of the race a long time ago and has talked about this, his model shows that I think at like a 70% chance of Trump winning right now.

Now, my,

you know, I think it actually will get higher because of the, when all the debate polling, post-debate polling gets pushed into these models.

But still, like,

70-30 is about what it was with Clinton and Trump in 2016.

Like, you know, again, these things can happen.

Stranger things have happened even above board.

That doesn't even account for what might happen kind of behind the scenes.

Yeah.

I think in the last supposedly Democrat polling showed an electoral difference after the debate, post-debate.

Did you see this statue?

333 to 205,

Trump over Biden.

Now, that would be a huge.

Remarkable.

That's a landslide victory for Trump.

If that happens, it's devastating to the Democratic party.

Devastating.

Now, it will be interesting to see if that follows through to the down ballot races.

Because what we've seen in polling so far is really it hasn't.

It's been largely a Biden-related problem for the Democrats.

A lot of their Senate candidates, a lot of their House candidates have been doing just fine.

So we may see

just in case, I mean, we're not going to get into this too deeply now because it's not worth a full breakdown yet.

But like the way the playing field is set for the Senate election is heavily favoring Republicans.

Like it would be a disaster if they don't win the Senate.

Like they, they just have a lot of real opportunities.

They're not defending a lot of tough seats.

Like this is should be cake for them to pull the Senate off.

They already are leading the House.

They're really good at dropping that cake on the floor and completely ruining them.

They saw it in 2022.

Yeah.

Right.

Really good.

In 2022, they got results that were not as positive.

They did win the House.

They have a chance of winning the House House again.

But they didn't win it by the margin all of us expected.

No.

Everybody expected a huge blowout, and it wasn't that.

And, you know, it's funny.

When that election happened, we were on the air talking about this.

And I thought to myself, you know, and we said it on the air as well, but in some ways, that might have been the best outcome long term.

Because, I mean, it would have been great if they had won the Senate too, but they wouldn't have been able to get really much more of anything done with the Senate.

The judicial issue would have been the biggest one.

We didn't have any Supreme Court openings

of note.

So you have a situation where, eh, you know, having the House was enough to stop him from Biden from doing his worst.

And also, they're more responsible for, they can't blame Republicans.

They didn't pass any bills.

You know, in a way, it was almost like it left the pressure on Democrats to take responsibility for what they've done.

And that's been, I think, a good thing.

Remember, yes, the debate was a major, major deal.

The biggest debate in American history.

We've never seen anything like it.

Joe Biden was losing before it.

It's like the Colin Kaepernick thing that drives me crazy.

Oh, he was fired because he took a knee.

Do you believe these mean, conservative NFL owners?

They're so.

And then you remember that Colin Kaepernick lost his job to Blaine Gabbert before

he ever took a knee.

He was so bad as a quarterback that he lost his job to Blaine Gabbert before he ever took a knee.

He did not lose his job because he took a knee.

People forget that, and they're going to forget it here.

If Donald Trump goes on to win, they're going to be like, oh, gosh, that debate performance.

He, Joe Biden, was losing already.

Yeah.

The reason the debate was scheduled because he was desperate because he was in a losing position.

It's important to remember that.

He has turned the economy upside down.

He has turned the border upside down.

He's terrible on both those issues, issues, and both of them are at the top of almost all Americans' list.

How's Afghanistan doing?

Afghanistan didn't do that well.

No?

Yeah, no, not our withdrawal from it.

No.

Economy, inflation.

Yeah.

I mean, crime.

Exactly.

Gas prices.

I mean, is there an area where he's done well?

I mean, they claim they've done.

They claim the border situation is better than it was under Trump.

Everybody knows that's not true.

No.

They claim the economy is better under Biden than it was under Trump.

Everybody knows that's not true.

My one example for this, and I mean this sincerely, is he has been a somewhat transformational Democratic candidate and that he's moved the ball in a lot of different ways towards hardcore progressivism.

He has not been a failure as a president if you're a progressive.

Like if we had a Republican president that moved the ball toward constitutional principles as much as Biden has done the opposite, we would be happy with them.

Oh, yeah.

Like I would not be disappointed in Biden's presidency if I was an insane communist.

Right?

Right.

I mean, the man has literally disassembled our governmental system.

He's just decided, you know what?

I can spend $500 billion relieving student loans without telling anyone.

I can do it.

I can.

The eviction moratorium.

I can do that.

Right.

Even though I have no power to do it, everybody in the government, I said I can't do it.

I'm going to do it anyway.

You know, the biggest climate bill ever, the Inflation Reduction Act, was a massive accomplishment if you're an insane communist.

So, like, I can't say he's failed as a president when it comes to

the left.

They should love this guy.

Yeah.

The fact that they are abandoning him only shows how much they think he's going to lose.

888-727-BECK more coming up.

The previous content identified as conservative.

Oh my.

The Glenn Beck program

will be right back.

You know, hindsight is always 20-20, and that is especially true with investing.

Oh, almost 30 years ago now, I bought my first gold with Lear Capital, and that investment has quadrupled.

Now, I wish I really would have spent some more on that and not listened to all the naysayers.

You know, I'm all about education, and that's why I choose Lear.

They have a new report on the U.S.

debt, de-dollarization, and gold.

It was written to help you make intelligent decisions on how to protect and grow your wealth.

There's even a section on how to protect your IRA and 401k.

After reading this report, I urge you to buy gold.

Call Lear.

And if you already own gold or silver, you might want to consider getting some more or consider gold for the first time.

Lear is the company that I trust to help you secure the one hard asset that has stood the test of time.

Get started.

Call Lear Capital now at 800-511-3700.

That's 800-511-3700.

Get their free report today.

It's worth the call.

800-511-3700.

Tell them I sent you, and they're going to put $250 in your account to help you get started.

Remember, 800-511-3700.

Look,

if

we finally beat Medicare

after I signed the PACANAC Atlack Act into

Security Adlai Secretary

Adlai,

I'm not sure I'm going to introduce you all away.

Just a few of my favorites.

It was just, keep in mind, though, just one bad night.

That's all it was with Joe Biden.

Just one bad night, a one-off sort of situation.

He's been fine since then.

He was fine before then.

It was just that one evening where he was a little bit tired, had a bit of a cold.

He was somewhat exhausted.

He was dehydrated.

He had some jet lag.

He had some jet lag from that trip from a few hundred hours before.

Before, yeah.

Maybe a thousand.

Maybe a thousand hours before he had a really long time.

What's a nice trip?

A thousand hours among friends.

Yeah.

I mean, the problem is

working too late.

Yeah.

He's working too too late.

He's not getting enough sleep.

He's working all the way till 4 o'clock on some days.

Yeah.

And thank goodness he has promised to be in bed by 8 o'clock every night from now on.

That's good.

That is good.

You know,

most countries will not attack after primetime starts on

TV.

It would be unfair.

Yeah.

A gentleman's agreement.

Yeah.

You know, just

keep your attacks to the middays.

You know?

Between 10 in the morning and 4 in the afternoon.

It's the only civilized way to attack anything.

This is what George Washington did.

He crossed the Delaware at like 11.15 a.m.

You know, it was nice and light out.

Right.

You know, and everything was...

It was warm, plenty warm.

Right.

Yeah.

And we really should do some seasons here.

Like, I mean, summer, there's too much going on.

No attacks then.

Around the holidays, that's not okay.

It's just not nice to do that.

No.

It's not the gentlemanly way to conduct warfare.

And that's how China and North Korea think.

They want to make sure they're on the up and up.

They're gentlemen and women.

So, good to hear.

We got that going forward.

All right, we'll be back again tomorrow.

See you then here on the Glenn Beck program.
