Best of The Program | Guests: Salena Zito & Mercedes Schlapp | 11/2/20

and Alyssa are always trying to outdo each other.

When Alyssa got a small water bottle, Mike showed up with a four-litre jug.

When Mike started gardening, Alyssa started beekeeping.

Oh, come on.

They called a truce for their holiday and used Expedia Trip Planner to collaborate on all the details of their trip.

Once there, Mike still did more laps around the pool.

Whatever.

You were made to outdo your holidays.

We were made to help organize the competition.

Expedia, made to travel.

Just got a note in.

Welcome to the podcast.

Before we start, just got a note in from somebody on Capitol Hill.

Pelosi shock troops.

They are arrogant and assured.

They have been planning transitions for weeks.

There is no way in their minds that Biden doesn't win this thing, which is scary.

They will be leading the charge on claiming fraud and suppression.

We know that they're building a fence around the White House, an unscalable fence around the White House.

In my entire lifetime, I lived in the 60s.

I was little, but I lived in the 60s.

I've never seen a fence that was non-scalable put around the White House.

It is, we are entering dangerous times and beyond the election.

That's where we begin our podcast today with a warning that is, I believe, absolutely accurate.

And it was a warning given to the president by one of the leaders of the Catholic Church, the one that says that they are fighting people like the Pope inside the Catholic Church.

It's an amazing study.

We also looked at all of the polling numbers.

Yeah, we went kind of a deep dive on all of the different battleground states as well as all the Senate races.

And the end game is, I mean, who knows where this thing's going to turn out, but we are going to have a pretty dramatic night on Tuesday.

And by the way, we have election coverage on Blaze TV.

It's going to a lot different than MSNBC or CNN or CBS or ABC.

You're going to want to see Blazetv.com/slash Glenn.

The promo code is Glenn.

It gets 30 bucks off.

That's only good for one more day, just like our country, only good for one more day.

Don't miss it.

Oh, and by the way, we have a great coverage.

Speaking of that, tomorrow, George Washington, a coffin, a dancing Trump,

you name it.

We've got it.

Plus, all of the big names are going to be on our our coverage tomorrow.

You don't want to miss it.

You're listening to the best of the Blenbeck program.

Senior advisor for the Trump 2020 campaign is Mercedes Schlapp.

Hello, Mercedes.

How are you?

And it's funny to be on your show.

Yeah, it's good to be here.

Good to have you on.

There's a

documentary out that has been out now for a couple of weeks called The Trump I Know.

And it's really about

the look into the White House with the women that work in the White House and a work around Donald Trump.

Yeah, so it's a great documentary.

We got to work closely with Joe Knopp, who produced it and really had the vision for it.

And it's talking about the women, not only at the White House, but at the campaign and even his winery here in Virginia.

And it was just to show this other side of the president, the fact that the women who have seen the president firsthand really know how he is as a leader, how he thinks.

And, you know, it's interesting because we all come up with the same conclusion, which is that not only is he a strong leader, but he's a compassionate person, someone who loves his country, someone who has a great sense of humor.

You mentioned that earlier.

And someone who really

understands what it is to solve very complicated problems, being creative when it comes to how we solve big issues, whether it be conflict in the Middle East, whether it be tackling trade deals with China and other nations.

And so that is, the president just doesn't think like a politician.

And you know this because you see a lot of these political types.

This is not how the president functions.

He will fight whoever he needs to fight, but he'll also work with whoever will want to come and work with him, whether whether it be a Democrat or Republican, to get things done.

And I think that his record has shown that he's been incredibly productive in the last 47 months.

Compare that to Joe Biden, who literally has been a career politician, the ultimate insider for 47 years, who now we know is not only the politician, but a corrupt one, as we've seen.

You know, I was really struck by

during the GOP convention

in really watching that.

I thought it was brilliantly done.

They just talked to people who had normal people who had experience meeting him, being around him, watching him, working with him.

And it was just not the scene you see anywhere in media.

No, and that's, you know, I always say this to whenever I meet like a suburban mom who's on the fence, like, I don't like the guy's tweets.

I don't know.

And I'm like, I wish you all would get a glimpse of how he is in person.

He is so warm and so personable.

And he really is someone who just connects with pretty much everyone he meets.

And it's something that we, you know, I've seen him in those moments of times when he'll call a family who's lost a loved one in the military.

Or, for example, when there was a shooting in Parkland, Florida, where he met with Andrew Pollack and his family when their daughter Meadows was tragically killed.

And so, and you see those moments where he really is like, what can I do to help you?

What can we do to solve this problem?

And I think you take the case of, for example, the members of the families of military officers who died in combat.

And he always would say, he goes, we got to end these endless wars.

Like, we've got to bring our troops back home.

And so his goal is always to just keep trying to figure out how

he can literally make people's lives better.

And I just very much respect that.

I mean, I've known politicians for a lot of time that it's a lot of talk, no action, or they're too scared, they're not bold enough.

And the one thing about President Trump is he's bold.

He says if he has a promise he's made, he's going to keep it.

And that's what he's done time and time again.

And it's why he's not a politician.

It's why he's the ultimate outsider.

And it's why the American people, you see them coming out in thousands and thousands in all these different cities, because they feel like

he has their voice.

He's the people's president.

He is not aligned with the special interests or the big media companies that are trying to silence us, try to shut us down.

And you know this, Glenn, better than anyone else.

How long has the conservative movement, they've bullied us around, tried to keep us quiet, tried to minimize us, and tried to make us feel guilty for loving this country?

And that's why President Trump has been that voice.

pushing backs against these liberals of the meet the liberals from the media liberal from the social media companies who are now trying to censor everything that we say and do I will tell you that I have, I thought about this this weekend.

I don't know of any other person that is capable, even capable, let alone willing to do it.

Take the shots that he has taken and really be

the last line of defense for our way of life.

I don't know of anyone else that could have pulled it off and lasted this long and is still getting up every day going, bring it on.

I mean, he really is the last line of defense.

He really is.

And I mean, just the mere fact that he goes, did five events yesterday, five rallies today.

I mean, he has endless energy.

And not only that, to your point, he just keeps punching and punching back.

He won't let the liberal media win.

He won't let the liberal media or these crazy Democrats take him down.

They've tried everything from Russian hoax to impeachment to everything.

And this man has been able to survive it all.

And it's because not only does he have the stamina, but he is just determined, determined to keep making the case for the American people and keep pushing really what I would say is such a strong agenda.

I mean, you're talking about building an incredibly strong economy, which

he did it under his watch.

He's fighting against COVID, combating COVID.

I mean, we're dealing with a global pandemic.

And this man is saying, we are not going to shut down America.

We're not going to lock down America like Joe Biden is proposing.

We've got to reopen our economy safely.

We've got to reopen our schools safely.

The impact that this has had on just small businesses alone and our families has been tremendous.

And we've got to find a way to deal with this virus in addition to being able to live our lives and do it in a safe and responsible way.

And I just think that the constant moralizing coming from CNN and all these places on how we have to live our lives.

I just was reading

the governor of California putting Thanksgiving restrictions.

You can't sing.

You can't chant.

You can't have more than three household

present.

I think it's two, isn't it?

Parties no longer.

Now, well, they're saying three.

Parties no longer than two hours.

Guests must stay outside.

What is this?

This is not America.

You cannot make us feel that we have to live in fear.

We're not going to do it.

And I just think that there has to, the American people have to reject this nanny state.

They need to reject these liberal governors who are trying to dictate how we live and let us have our, make our own decisions.

I mean, that's really

the end of it.

I was listening in the New York Times, the Daily, and I do it so others don't have to.

And

I'm listening to this, and

they're talking about Donald Trump.

And what do we do if he just refuses to accept

that Biden wins?

They never once asked, well, wait a minute,

you know, Biden and Clinton and the

Transition Integrity Project, you all stated there's no way you're going to concede.

You won't make that phone call if Donald Trump.

It is so agonizing to watch the truth be so distorted and turned around.

I don't know how the president has not just snapped.

How has he kept his cool with knowing the truth, knowing what we all know now, and

always getting the blame for things?

Always?

Yes.

Well, I mean, I just think right now he's razor-focused on talking directly to the American people about what his agenda is as we move forward into the next four years.

And he's not going to be defeated.

Like, he is determined to win this election.

We know that the momentum is clearly, clearly on our side.

We're seeing the trends turn turn in our favor.

And what I think is like it doesn't, I don't know about you, Glenn, but doesn't it feel a bit like a repeat of 2016 when the polls were like, he's never, President Trump won't win.

He won't be able to pull it off.

All the polls are saying Joe Biden.

You're seeing the media writing all these stories about what a Joe Biden presidency is going to look like.

And literally, I'm like going, this is like a Groundhog's Day.

It's like a repeat of 2016.

And so I think that the press, you know, it's like we kind of want to see how the media continues to go down, build this narrative, try to demoralize our voters.

But our voters right now are more excited than they've ever been in 2016.

I mean, we are finding people, and I've traveled across these battleground states, people coming up to us saying, I've never voted before.

I'm going to vote for the first time.

I'm 50 years old.

And yes, I'm voting for Donald Trump because

he stands for what we believe in.

And this is about really protecting American values, American values of freedom, of faith, of country, of love of this nation.

And for Americans, they don't want that to go away.

They don't want to make it so that America is bad and that America is, as Joe Biden said, simply an idea that we don't live up to.

We live up to the American ideas every single day in this country.

And so I just think that they don't want the doom and gloom of Joe Biden, the dark winter of Joe Biden.

I will tell you that I think that also, I mean, when Ronald Reagan was in office, and I felt this about Ronald Reagan from the beginning, that he made me proud to be an American because he was fighting for us against Russia and the Soviet Union, and he was just so great on that stage as a leader of the free world.

Donald Trump is the first president where I've ever felt that guy is not just fighting for our way of life.

He's actually fighting for me.

And I've never felt that from a president before, where

he

is fighting for my right and my voice.

And

that's an incredible accomplishment.

Yeah, and

I think that's what millions of Americans feel.

They feel this special connection to this president.

They feel that he's not just going to Washington to be, to get lost in the Washington language of just sitting in.

That's not the president.

The president's very unique in his nature.

And he is the one that came into Washington, broke the China, you know, got tough on

China, speaking of which, and really confronted the Democrats in a lot of ways when it came to all these different issues.

And, you know, one of the things that always bothered the president, I remember when

I was at the White House, that whenever Nancy Pelosi would come over and then she would go and they would have kind of a pretty okay meeting and then she'd go out and bash the president or she would bash the president before going to meet the president.

The president thought that was like the most unacceptable thing to do.

You don't try to bash the president first and then try to ask for a meeting in the White House.

That just doesn't work.

That's just not even courteous.

And so I think he didn't like that.

I mean, it really was something that he was like, this is not, this can't be with Nancy.

And it just showed the hypocrisy of these Democrats.

They were so obsessed with the impeachment process.

They still went through with it.

Although at the end of the day, they refused to even barely mention about Joe Biden

knowing about these foreign dealings.

We have the Hunter's ex partner, Tony Bobolinski, who's gone out, shown evidence, is working with the FBI, yet you have this cover-up scheme happening with big social media companies.

You're talking about also the liberal media.

No one wants to touch it.

Yet we know that they won't even ask the tough questions to Joe Biden.

So Joe Biden has gone a pass throughout this whole campaign process where they're really focused on just trying to get rid of the president.

Mercedes, thank you so much.

The website where you can see this documentary, and if you know somebody who's on a fence, if you know a woman who's like, I just don't like the way,

send them to thetrumpinow.com.

Thetrumpinow.com.

It chronicles the women in the White House and the women around Donald Trump.

And I think

women will be proud of the record that he has in the White House.

Thank you so much.

I appreciate it.

Thank you so much, Glenn Beck.

You bet.

ThetrumpIknow.com.

That was Mercedes Schlapp.

She's senior advisor of the 2020 campaign.

This is the best of the Glenn Beck program.

So the editorial board of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette came out and said he's unpresidential.

He's crude and unkind.

He's not a good man.

These things and much worse are commonly said about President Donald Trump.

His personality totally eclipses his record.

So we seemingly have him on the dunk tank ready for a very cold bath.

Let's play dump-the-lout.

But is this what it's really about?

Isn't the real question whether he has been taking the economy and the country in the right direction for these last four years?

Can we separate the man from the record?

We share embarrassment of millions of Americans who are disturbed by the president's president's unpresidential manners and character, his rudeness and put-downs, and bragging and bending the truth.

None of it can be justified.

The president's behavior has almost diminished his presidency and the presidency.

Most Americans want a president who make them proud.

We too prefer the first-class temperament and demeanor of Winston Churchill.

I got to tell you, Winston Churchill was no saint.

Winston Churchill was a foul-mouthed

liked his drinks.

He was drunk almost all the time.

He was no saint.

I mean,

he's not a great example of that.

He's not a great example.

He's not.

Anyway, but let's look at the Trump record.

Under Donald Trump, the economy pre-COVID boomed.

No time like since the 1950s.

Look at your 401k over the last three years.

Unemployment for black Americans is lower than it's ever been under any president of either party.

Under Mr.

Trump, our trade relations have vastly improved.

Our trade deals have been rewritten.

Thanks to him, Middle America is on the the map again, and the Appalachian and Hourly Worker has some hope.

Has Mr.

Trump done enough for these struggling fellow citizens?

No, but he has at least recognized them.

Maybe he wasn't articulate, but he recognized their pain.

No one has ever asked the American people or the people in flyover country if they wanted to send their jobs abroad until Mr.

Trump.

He has moved the debate in both parties from free trade totally unfettered to managed or fair trade.

He has put America first just as he said he would.

He also kept his promise to appoint originalists to the Supreme Court of the United States.

His third appointment, Amy Coney Barrett, is the best of all, blah, blah, blah.

Finally, let's talk about one of the most concerns, the most important concerns in this region, energy.

Under Mr.

Trump, the United States achieved energy independence for the first time in the lifetimes of most of us.

It's an incredible accomplishment that nobody ever talks about.

Where would Western Pennsylvania be without the Shell Petrochemical Complex?

Donald Trump is not Churchill, to be sure, but he gets things done.

He's not a unifier.

He often acts like the president of his base, not the whole country.

He's done nothing to lessen our divisions and has, in fact, often deepened them.

The convictions and intellect of all Americans should be respected by all Americans, especially the president.

Has Mr.

Trump handled the pandemic perfectly?

No, but no one masters the pandemic.

Mr.

Biden is too old for the job and too fragile.

And there's a very good chance he will not make it through the term.

Mr.

Trump, also too old, but seemingly robust.

But in Mike Pence, we have a vice president ready to take over if need be.

He's a safe pair of hands.

Kamala Harris gives no evidence of being ready to be president of the United States.

I think this is amazing, but what does it actually mean to people in Pennsylvania?

Let's go to Selena Zito.

Hello, Selena.

How are you?

Hey, Glenn, how are you this morning?

Very good.

Now, I know you worked for the trib, which was the more conservative paper in Pittsburgh.

So, this is the Post Gazette.

Does this make a difference to anybody?

Yeah, actually, it does.

You know, in fairness, 20 years ago,

editorial support from a newspaper had much more weight.

Having said that, in an election, in a state of...

Hold on, hold on, hold on.

You're in a, ⁇ I mean, I don't know if you're actually doing the Campbell can of soup thing.

That connection sounds a little bit different.

Yeah, like it's coming over a string.

So if you can get by a window or something, but go ahead.

Is this better?

That's much better.

I was actually by a window, which is a lot of people.

Okay.

All right.

So

10, 20 years ago, an editorial board endorsement of a presidential candidate carried much more weight.

We were less fractured 20 years ago, and I don't just mean politically.

We also had less choices.

We had less television shows, we had less newspapers, we had less internet, etc.

So

that was a unifier, something to consider.

Having said that, this editorial

in support for the president

was not only written incredibly well and very vividly and didn't sort of gloss over any of the president's frailties, but it also underscored robustly his accomplishments.

But most importantly, what it did, and this is a thing people will miss, is that it gave permission

for the voter who

was unsure, or the voter who felt the peer pressure not to, or the voter who

spent

you know, isn't as invested in social media and cable to

make that decision.

It gave them permission to say, you know what, it's okay.

It actually is okay.

They recognized his failures.

They underlined his accomplishments.

The accomplishments for me is more important than his failures.

See, people tend to think, in particular, people who don't spend any time in this state or any, you know, anywhere in, well, you flyover country,

they just fail to recognize that people don't put a teen jersey on every morning, and that's how they conduct their politics.

People vote because of their community, they don't vote because of an ideology.

Yes, there is a portion of them that do that, but for the most part, people look around at their neighborhood, they look around at their town, they look around at their family, and they make their vote their choice that way.

Tell me,

Nate Silver from 538 538 put a caveat on his prediction in Pennsylvania

because he saw the size of the crowds in Pennsylvania

this weekend.

What's happening on the ground?

What does your gut say, Selena?

So I'm sort of insulted that he's like, oh, look, there's crowds.

Maybe we should change this.

We can't predict elections by data only

because data only gives us what people are willing to give to the scientists, the data collectors.

There has been a contradiction between interviews and experiences and cultural cues that have put the polling data

at risk.

And

what do I mean by cultural cues?

208,000 new Republican voters, 246,000 brand new gun owners

since this summer.

You know, entertainment and sports

products like the Steelers and the Eagles, although I don't pay attention to what the Eagles

viewership is, but the Steelers is

down.

And we're 7-0, at least I think.

I don't know.

I haven't watched the game.

So there's cultural cues that are telling us,

more so than crowds, that people are not being forthcoming with pollsters.

And so I think this is a very close race.

And if I'm going by my gut, I say the president probably wins Pennsylvania.

And

if he wins Pennsylvania, he's going to win the election, most likely.

I mean, there are ways for him to lose if he wins Pennsylvania.

But if he wins, Pennsylvania is a major, major barometer of this thing.

If he pulls that off, he's probably going to win.

And I heard that

North Carolina in the

pre-voting or the mail-in ballots, that actually

the Republicans are outpacing for the first time the Democrats.

And

if that holds,

that should be

a big sign as well.

Because he needs the early indications will be

Florida, North Carolina,

Georgia, wouldn't you say?

Georgia

is a concern.

I think Georgia,

I think the states you actually should watch if you are a supporter of the president is Georgia, Michigan, and Wisconsin.

He's got to win one of those.

So those are the three states

outside of Pennsylvania.

that you got to watch.

If he's coming in at three, four, five percent in Ohio,

then he's likely won Pennsylvania.

We're not going to know Pennsylvania for a while.

Our ballots aren't even due in until the weekend.

There are many counties that aren't even going to start counting

ballots until the day after the election.

So other states I would keep an eye on is North Carolina, not North Carolina, Georgia, Michigan, and Wisconsin.

Keep an eye on what's going there.

Keep an eye on Ohio.

If it's at five, six, seven points.

These other states, which are neighboring states, where the culture is very similar,

you will maybe see this then

the night favoring the president in other

Great Lakes Midwest states.

So tell me how you think those states are stacking up for him, because I've heard Wisconsin, Biden is like 11 points ahead in the polls.

No, Biden's maybe point ahead in the polls.

That's not what I heard on, I think,

maybe CNN this morning.

All right.

And

I would say Wisconsin at the worst, if you're a Trump supporter, is at three percentage points.

And

at best, in about one to two points, favoring Biden.

The thing we don't understand

in polling is: are pollsters overanalyzing polls?

Are pollsters not getting enough

non-college educated voters in their universe?

Pollsters are also, a lot of voters that live outside of suburban and urban areas are more likely to drop the call and unwilling to talk to a pollster.

That's not just white working class, that's also black voters and Hispanic voters.

These voters have

less of a trust in larger institutions than suburban

college-educated people with 2, 3, 4, 92 degrees

do.

They're like happy to pick up the phone and talk for 45 minutes with a pollster about how much they hate Trump.

Selena, thank you so much for being on.

You're going to be with us tomorrow night for our election coverage as well.

And we'll be looking for your analysis on what is really happening.

I think Pennsylvania is going to play a very important role in this election.

And also,

I fear funny business as well with the election and the ballots as they count them after the results come in.

But we'll see.

Thank you so much, Celine.

I appreciate it.

Thank you for having me.

God bless.

This is the best of the Glenn Beck program.

This is the day before the election.

We're going to give you all of the polls and everything else you need.

We also want to talk to first-time Trump voters, people who are thinking about sitting it out.

I can't vote for either, or undecideds.

I'd like to know what would tip that for you one way or another.

I'm going to take those phone calls.

I am a first-time Trump voter.

Didn't vote for him last time.

Didn't vote for Hillary, but didn't vote for him last time.

and voted Friday.

And

boy, I didn't have a problem.

Talked to somebody who said, you know,

I cried when I voted for him because it was hard.

I was a first-time voter and I don't like a lot of the things he says, but I think he's standing up for what's right.

Yep.

And it wasn't hard for me.

Was it hard for you?

Not at all.

You haven't voted yet, Stu.

No.

And you're the gay character on the show.

So you're probably voting for, what, Biden?

I actually only vote for gay people.

Only gay people.

Only, only, okay.

Is there a gay person on the ticket for president?

I'm going to keep searching until I find it.

Maybe the Green Party candidate.

I don't tell him it's a binary choice because it's not a binary choice.

It's not a binary choice.

Or it is.

It is.

It is, damn it.

Yeah, I had no problem.

I couldn't push the button hard enough for Trump this time.

I know.

I actually sat there and I looked at it.

Pushing the button harder doesn't get him extra potency.

That's not how this works.

I just wanted to make sure that it was going through.

I just, I, man, I looked at that machine the whole time and I'm like,

if you screw this vote up, I mean, i checked and checked and rechecked i checked it you know at the end when you're doing the computer check yeah and then i checked it again on the printout does it mean anything that my um computer printout just said fat chance

no

no that's what it said on the

no uh let me go to uh jillian hello jillian you're on the glenn deck program

Wow, hi, Glenn.

Hi.

Thank you.

Hi, Pat.

Hi.

Nice to talk to you guys.

Thank you too.

I'm a suburban mom and a first-time Trump voter.

I run a small business from my home, and I'm totally afraid to share any political views on social media,

even privately, with people that I know and love because I don't think they would love me if they knew.

And so the logical thing was for you to call a national radio program.

Exactly.

I love to do things the wrong way.

Right.

Okay.

So

you voted for him for the first time, or are you going to vote for him?

Have you done it yet?

I did it.

And you tell we do mail-in ballots and I just took it to the Dropbox.

And how'd you feel about it?

I'm still nervous, but I'm hopeful for him.

I pray for him and I pray for the country.

And

that's the best I can do is give my vote and

hope for the best.

So what changed your mind?

A lot of the things he's done that he said said he was going to do, and I just didn't believe him.

I thought he was trolling America.

Yeah.

I really just did not think

he was going to do what he said, but he did,

and more.

And then

the media, you know, I just couldn't believe that he was saying all the things that he was saying.

And so I started listening to the whole

context.

Yes, exactly.

And seeing the way that they were twisting what he said completely out of context, cutting off quotes.

I think if he wins, I think if he wins, the media will have a big part in that win.

Because I've talked to a lot of people who said, I didn't, I've never really paid attention, but I couldn't believe what they were saying.

If it was that bad, we needed to get rid of him.

And they started paying attention and they realized, oh my gosh, we're being lied to.

Jennifer in Missouri.

Hello, Jennifer.

Hi, Glenn.

Hi.

First-time Trump voter.

Hello?

Yes, are you there?

You're a first-time Trump voter.

Are you there?

Hello.

Yes.

Can you hear us?

Put her on hold, see if we can fix this.

Let's go to Jeff in North Carolina.

Hello, Jeff.

Yeah, I'm doing good.

Good.

I'm a first-time voter.

Like you, I was a Tech Cruise guy.

Loved him.

I was afraid that Trump was kind of going to be a guy to come in and spoil the election.

I kind of thought he was working

under the cover for the Democrats to kind of come in and help Hillary out.

But

he did what he said he was going to do.

He's protected the unborn.

He protects our freedoms.

He has done great for this country.

And after four years, I think he truly loves this country.

I think he's the only one in my lifetime, with Reagan, maybe the exception,

that has actually done

everything that he said he was going to do for the most part, the border, et cetera, et cetera.

But

even the stuff I don't like, like the trade with China.

But he has done

the things I thought for sure he would never do.

He'd never do those things.

And he did.

I mean, the Jerusalem situation is probably the one that stands out the most in that regard.

Like the fact that what he's done in the Middle East, the fact that we've seen multiple countries now come on the side of

normalizing relations with Israel.

Just

I mean, that's crazy.

That one I would have never

honestly.

I mean, the Supreme Court justices, he did, you know, say he had a list of them and everything.

Yeah, but look at the Bush appointments.

You know, the Bush appointments sometimes were like, okay.

Yeah.

And I honestly didn't, I was not even convinced he was going to pick off the list, frankly.

I mean, and you could argue.

At least the first one he did, and then he made a new list and picked the other two off of that one.

Right.

But still, I mean, they're all in the pocket of approval from things like the Federalist Society.

Society.

They're very much normal to good Republican picks, which I did not expect.

He just signed another international agreement on abortion, that it's not an international right.

And he signed on with 30 other countries.

Got us out.

Remember, one of the things I said he would never do is get us out of the green deals.

You know what I mean?

Get us out of the Paris Accords and

he did that right away.

And

he is standing for that.

We're energy independent for the first time in my lifetime.

That's incredible.

It is.

The fact that we beat ISIS quickly, almost with a yawn.

That's one that's really forgotten because that was the big international story theme of 2016.

I didn't even have anything to talk about.

Yeah, I mean, and we've, and look, we've done enough work with Nazarene Fund and everything to know that it's not completely over.

There's no trouble.

But still, it's better.

It's immeasurably better than in 2016.

So much so that it's not even something that got, as far as I can remember, mentioned in the debates.

No, it wasn't.

Not mentioned.

Of course not.

You couldn't have mentioned that because it shows success.

And then on top of it, you know, the next shoe to fall is Saudi Arabia.

And all of them now, all of our Middle East allies are all saying, if Biden comes in, this all falls apart because they will go back to the Palestinian well.

And so all of this falls apart.

I mean, that's,

I mean,

we are just

the cardinal, that letter that I read.

I think we really are in a battle of good versus evil.

And look at how far we have come because we have a guy who's who doesn't care.

And he's willing just to go, no, that's, I don't agree with you.

I know you're all the egg-headed experts, but you've been saying this for 80 years or 100 years and it's not working.

So I'm not doing it anymore.

If he gets another term, he will clean out that deep state because he has every reason to do it he

have you seen the the zoom calls can we play listen to this zoom call this is from the what is it the sunrise foundation black lives matter

and uh shut down dc they had a zoom call and on this call

were

people from the government.

They were in positions in the government, and they were being asked, what levers do you have to be able to shut things down?

I want you to listen to what they are plotting.

Here it is.

So we began to put together a list of things we want to know about in the city.

So where are all the police stations?

Because it's good to know where the police are.

Where are all the key government buildings?

Where are all the media outlets?

Who are the Trump boosters?

So we're talking about what would it take to surround the White House and have people do stuff.

We can divide it up easily with affinity groups.

We have to be willing to put our bodies on the line and take on some discomfort, sacrifice, risk in order to change things.

And I've been in conversations where people have never thought about having a gun are like, should I have a gun?

But I think we have to know, and I'm going to talk a little bit in a few minutes about what do we do when guns are in the mix.

So again, chaos is a soup by which change emerges.

Let's get cooking.

Again, we didn't cause the war.

We didn't ask for this war.

Many of us are here because we want to fight it.

We want something different.

What are we willing to do?

Because again, we're not dealing with people with just simple guns.

We're dealing with people with AR, you know, AK-47s, multiple rounds, a lot of shootings.

So,

yeah, we are going to be in a crisis, but we want it to be one that we are creating.

We want to make sure that we are on the offense and not the defense.

We want them to be responding to us and us not responding to them.

In a situation of a coup or an insurrection or an uprising, whoever's got the guns often can win.

We should be clear.

Like,

it's got to go.

Trump's got to go.

In order to achieve what they did, they knew they had to take over important government buildings.

They knew they had to try and win over members of the police and army, and they had to protect each other.

I think we don't have a lot of experience taking over government buildings.

And we might need to think about that.

And I know, as I, you know, I said earlier how

you know, we may find ourselves in the streets with people with different tactics than ours, but like, there may be some people that are willing to break the windows to get into the government buildings.

Like, if that's what we need to do, then we shouldn't fight about that.

Let's do that.

Wow.

This sounds like a suburban mom.

You know, I mean, she sounds, this is what these are the three groups out of the 200 that the Democrats have partnered with to create chaos.

We showed you all of the documentation.

The 200 groups, I think that came out in

maybe the New York Times, maybe about a week ago about how these 200 groups are

been put on standby.

Again, this is leaked, a leaked Zoom call between the leadership from Shutdown DC, the Sunrise Movement, and BLM.

And they're worried about the right

creating violence?

This is what we're up against.

And this is part of the deep state and part now of your Democratic or Democrat Party.

This is part of it now.

You are not dealing with your grandfather, your father, or even Barack Obama's Democrats.

It is now a Marxist revolutionary group.
