Well, hello, America, and welcome to the Glen Beck Program.
Quite a show for you today.
We're going to talk about the debate, which is tomorrow.
We, of course, have the update on the Supreme Court.
And we're going to start with you, your life, your business.
We do that in 60 seconds.
This is the Glenn Beck Program.
Hey, morning, Stu.
How are you, Glenn?
How are you?
Oh, my gosh.
Have we ever seen a news cycle like this?
Nope.
There are a hundred huge stories today.
There's no way we're getting to all of them.
Just when you thought it was safe to take a shower near your computer.
So it turns out that one of the many things cyber criminals can do is hack into your computer and turn on the webcam without your knowing about it, which I like because sometimes I'll have my computer in the bathroom and I'm taking a shower and look at that.
Cyber criminal, look at that all you want.
Jokes on them in that situation.
They're like, oh my gosh, cut the lines, cut the lines.
They become the Unabomber and go to a shack after that.
On top of the
real-time protection tools that keep your personal information safe when you're on Wi-Fi, including a VPN with a bank grade encryption, Norton 360 offers a safe cam, which will notify you if someone has hacked into your system and is activating your webcam.
This is really important.
When it comes to Wi-Fi security, Norton 360, they have you covered.
No one can prevent all cybercrime, but Norton 360, powerful toolbox, a great ally to have on your side for cyber safety.

A letter to the editor from The Washington Post.
Letter to the editor.
I grew up inside this restaurant, and now my wife's helping out in the dining room.
My daughter's working at the hostess stand.
It's a family place, four generations and counting.
I know every inch of pipe and wire that is running through this building.
I've been the plumber, the busboy, the handyman, the butcher, the bartender, the prep cook, the manager.
I've done every job there is in this restaurant.
And now I'm the one who has to shut us down.
It kills me.
My wife and I were supposed to be getting ready to celebrate our 60th anniversary,
a 60th anniversary of our restaurant, this year.
But instead, we're packing up and closing at the end of this month.
I'll find another job, but it's more than that.
This is my home.
These walls are like a family photo album.
I try not to get too sentimental about it because it won't change a damn thing.
But sometimes the stress hits me and my heart starts going like crazy.
I get frustrated.
It makes me angry.
How does this whole situation make any sense?
I don't know a single person that has gotten COVID.
And I know that makes me lucky.
But right now I can tell you about at least a dozen businesses going under and a few hundred people completely going broke.
I know this virus is real, okay?
It's real and it's awful.
I'm not disputing any of that.
But our national hysteria is worse.
We've allowed this virus to take over our economy, our small businesses, our school, our social lives, our whole quality of life.
We surrendered and now everything is infected.
I like to believe this restaurant is resilient.
I tried to outlast it.
My father worked here five days a week until he died at 82
because that's in our DNA.
When the governor first shut us down in March, I got together with my brother and my cousin and we agreed to think of this as an opportunity.
The restaurant was doing pretty good at that point.
We had a little money to spend.
We said, let's reinvest back into the business like it's supposed to be done.
We took our time and remodeled the entire bar.
We put in new bathrooms, new draft lines.
We gave a tour to a few of our loyal customers that said, wow, when this place opens up, you're going to fill it every day.
You'll be bigger than ever.
At first, the state was only allowing us to do carry-out.
Okay,
we have five dining rooms, 85 employees, and 13,000 square feet of space.
And now you want us to operate like a burger shack?
How many people do you know who are willing to spend $40 on a lukewarm steak that's traveled halfway across town?
That's not our business.
We're old school.
We don't have frozen hot wings that we heat up and toss in a cardboard box in five minutes.
We buy the chicken fresh.
We cut off the fat ourselves.
We pound it out.
We bread it.
Your wings will take 25 minutes while you're enjoying a conversation and a cocktail or two.
But that's the old world,
What choice did we have?
We redid our carry-out menu and cut the prices down and teamed up with DoorDash and Grubhub.
We created theme menus for Mother's Day and Easter.
We delivered charity meals out to the hospitals, opened up a crab trailer out front so we could sell by the bushel.
We were spending $800 a week on carry-out containers, and there is no profit in it.
You lose out on booze.
You don't get the same tips.
We
kept hanging on through March, then April, then May.
But our revenue is down more than 80%.
We had to lay off 75 people.
That's 75 people dealing with unemployment and financial hardships, and not because a virus made any of them sick.
When the state opened up for outdoor dining, I ran out to every Costco in the area, bought any picnic table I could find.
We got 20 for $150 apiece.
We roped off the parking lot and put up buckets of cold beer.
We tried to make it look nice, but it's summer in Baltimore.
It's 90 some degrees outside and you're selling cream of crab soup to people who are sweating on the asphalt.
Why would they come?
We stood out there for nine hours each and every day and we waited.
We got more creative.
We kept on trying.
We opened up at a 50% capacity, had live music, themed dinners, mystery nights, a meal with a psychic.
We reinvented this restaurant a dozen times, and none of it worked.
And what support did we get?
More rules, more restrictions, more regulations, more mandates, and curfews.
We had to close at 10 p.m.
because I guess maybe COVID comes out at 10.01.
Except apparently, they didn't have to do that at the casino down the road because they have political leverage.
They get to stay open as long as they want.
You can sit at our bar and have a drink, but you can't get up and mingle because that's considered a health violation.
So now I'm trying to serve you and police you at the same time.
Hey, thanks for coming.
We really need your business.
Now put on your mask or sit the hell back down.
I have to buy disinfectants, individual ketchup, paper menus, personal salt and pepper shakers, or anything else that I might get fined if I don't have.
My employees have to wear their masks all the time, even when they're alone in an office.
But meanwhile, we have a group of 40 people in the dining room with no masks on, and that's deemed safe because they're drinking water.
None of this makes sense.
We had a customer come in the other day.
She said she couldn't get seated.
She couldn't get seated because We had a few other tables and we'd hit our 50% capacity in the one dining room she likes.
I had to ask her to wait.
I'd rather sit her down and take her money.
I hate this rule, but I now have to enforce it.
But she could see all the empty tables.
She didn't understand.
She got mad and decided to call 911 and tell them we were over capacity.
Two armed police officers came through here.
The whole foyer was empty.
Nobody was at the bar.
I have a max fire rating on the wall for 323 people,
and they couldn't count up to 100.
I told them I dream about being overcapacity, but I doubt that will ever happen again.
It's like Trump said,
the cure is worse than the disease.
People spend too much time at home watching all the news all day long, drinking in this hysteria until they were spraying down their groceries and and afraid to leave home.
It became another anti-Trump thing in the press.
The impeachment didn't work.
The killer bees didn't work.
So let's blow COVID out of proportion and see if it hurts him.
But it's the rest of us that got hurt.
It was the day after day of failure.
It's a slow and painful death.
We went to see our accountant at the end of summer.
He looked over at the numbers.
He didn't say much.
That's not like him.
I said to him,
What would you do?
He said the way things are going,
you'll have nothing left to lose in just a couple of months.
We made our decision right then and there.
It wasn't really much to discuss.
Our last day is September 30th, and then we're done.
This is happening all over America.
People had good jobs.
They had businesses.
They built them.
And the reason why the left insisted that Donald Trump do what he didn't do, thank God, and have a national mandate is because they would have blamed all of this on him.
They would have said it was the president's national mandate.
Instead, he says, I'm going to leave it up to the locals, the states,
the cities.
And how many cities are going through this?
And how many citizens in those cities, both Independent, Democrat, Even Republican, are looking at it now going, what the hell is going on?
Why are we doing this?
My kids are going to a school right now.
Supposed to be one of the best schools around.
Really?
Because it doesn't seem like they are smart enough to figure this one out.
The teachers are wearing masks.
The children are wearing masks the entire school day.
They're also sitting behind little glass partitions.
Each of them have a glass partition.
The teacher is standing behind a glass partition.
So you've got a mask, a glass partition, a glass partition, and another mask.
My son sits in the back, says, I don't understand a thing that's going on.
I can't hear anybody.
They have to wear their masks outside.
This is insanity.
Truly insanity.
And I hope the American people see it as such.
I hope the American people are figuring this out.
I think they are.
This nomination
of Amy Coney Barrett,
if this is a trial and an impeachment of her character and an impeachment of her religion,
the Democrats are going to pay a very big price for it.
I don't think there is anyone in America
that is still a decent American.
Remember, I
don't think so highly of Americans.
Americans are really good.
They want to be good.
But when they have people leading them into madness, they will follow.
I know it firsthand.
I've seen it firsthand
my family has been attacked publicly in crowds spat upon
people chanted
get out we don't want you here
my family and I we
we saw this behavior
and we thought there's no one that we know of no public figure no personal figure that we would ever treat like that no one because it it violates every bit of common decency.
It's one thing to say, well, I've said that on Twitter.
Because
Twitter goes to the worst parts of us.
We suddenly become brave because we're on Twitter.
We can join a mob on Twitter, but most people, I don't think, want to join a mob.
But that's what's happening.
There's a mob.
And there's a mob that has been organized in Washington, D.C.
It has been organized
by
groups in secret, secret combinations,
political groups,
people that are just after power and money and they don't care how they get it.
And they have flushed our way of life down the toilet.
For what?
A presidential campaign?
Partly.
But for a whole new system.
See, if you kill the entrepreneur in America, you kill America.
Because you're killing the individual.
The individual just has to go to work at some chain restaurant.
They can no longer express themselves in their own restaurant.
They lose the desire to say, I'll take that risk because anything can cut that risk, destroy that, anything can change the variables and they have no recourse.
This is the biggest theft of not only money,
but of heritage
and of hope.
Where's your hope?
When the government can come in and you have a successful business and tell you what to do, when the numbers don't bear it out, when they came in on a false premise 15 days to flatten the curve, and you're still doing it, where do you go?
See, this is the conservative argument against big government
because
there's no place to go.
When the government makes the decision, they're the police and the criminal.
The United States government and many of our states
are responsible for this,
not you.
And hopefully, someday soon will return to some semblance of sanity.
And those responsible for this
theft,
this rape of the Western world,
will be held responsible.
All right.
You know, I'm not listening to Cardi B's, you know, whap,
at least on endless repeat,
but I could, and I could listen to all of the beautiful lyrics and hear them just perfectly with my Raycon wireless earbuds.
Now, I was on a plane this weekend and didn't have my wireless earbuds.
Why?
Because my daughter had taken them.
And when I got home, I said, oh, there's where my earbuds are.
She's like, yeah, I lost mine.
well then don't lose mine
raycon raycon wireless earbuds they are great they fit perfectly unlike some earbuds which will remain nameless but they're white and they're named after a fruit like an apple uh anyway you're one step uh closer to just the perfect experience with wireless headphones because the the wireless earpods
that Apple makes are twice as expensive as these.
As Raycon's newest model, everyday E25 earbuds, the best ones they put out yet, six hours of playtime.
Seamless Bluetooth pairing, more bass, more compact design that gives you a nice noise-isolating fit.
And as I said, half the price of the leading quality earbuds.
You're going to find one size-fits-all, their fitting system.
You're not going to lose them, they're not going to fall out, they're comfortable.
They're really the best buy in the market.

10 seconds, station ID.
Welcome to the program.
Tomorrow is the first debate, and I have no idea what to expect.
You have any
your wildest guess.
I mean, literally, literally, midgets could come crawling out of Donald Trump's pants and on unicycles and could ride around the stage.
And I'd be like, hmm, I didn't see that one coming, but it makes sense.
You know what I mean?
It really is.
I mean, anything could happen.
Anything could happen.
I'm interested to see, because I think the audience expectation from the conservative side is that Trump's going to wipe the floor with Biden.
And so the bar is set very high.
It really is.
I feel like Biden could come out and like mumble a bunch of syllables that don't connect into words, and we'd be like, pretty impressive performance by Biden there.
I mean, he got through it.
He got through it.
He didn't make sense all the time, but he said words the entire time.
There's a couple of those.
I think Donald Trump keeps asking for a drug test, which I think is really weird.
But he keeps asking for a drug test, maybe because,
you know, that thing that they, you know, like, did you see the movie The Rock?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
VX gas.
That, that thing that they stab into your heart and they inject you.
And so like when you're dead, you go
and you come alive and you have all that address.
I think that's what maybe Trump wants to see if they've done that to Biden.
If right before he goes on, they just jam that into his chest and inject it right into his heart.
He does seem to to have his good days and bad days, Biden.
I'm hoping for a bad day.
And it just seems odd, right?
Like, why is this person so up and down?
Some days he seems to have energy and be moderately coherent, and other days he's almost asleep on stage and can't get through the most basic.
So do you really lecture that?
I mean, do you think there's a chance that he's.
I don't know.
I mean, he's not snorting cocaine, but they're giving him something to.
Well, Biden's had this weird, like, super soft-spoken thing he's been doing for 10 years.
Yeah.
And I don't know if it's that,
you know, like, there's all sorts of rumors on the internet from supposed, you know, all sorts of, it's all rumor, right?
There's nothing, there's nothing except for the jamming that syringe into your heart.
That's clearly, clearly true.
I think, I think, you know, what Trump does is get under his opponent's skin.
And I think Biden is at that point in his life where he feels like, I can do it.
Everyone's saying I can't do it.
I can do it.
Just put me out there.
I'll
slaughter this guy on stage.
And I think Trump wants to draw that out of the way.
He's going to to get under his skin, mention his son
the first two minutes.
All right, so in a world where who we are individually is being raped and taken from us, you might want to hold on to your identity and everything that that means.
Boy, I was so, we watched,
what was it, The Social Dilemma on Netflix with my kids.
Oh, yeah.
They're totally fine with absolutely everything about them being out.
And I'm like, okay, that doesn't make your kids are?
Yeah.
It doesn't make me like an old-fashioned fuddy-duddy.
That makes you completely unaware of what that means.
Yeah, that you're a kid.
I know, I know.
Everyone makes jokes when they're kids and says things.
So everything is at risk every time you get online or they get online.

We have all sorts of special coverage on the debate starting tomorrow night.
Wow.
I have to tell you,
I've got an announcement to make.
I was all for
voting for Donald Trump.
I was on the bandwagon.
I was on the bandwagon.
Then the New York Times came out with
this
just
absolutely can't believe it is true story about his taxes.
My he took advantage of
tax code loopholes?
Not only that, but he hid it while he was admitting that during the last debate.
Well, no, he didn't.
He actually admitted that he took advantage of the tax loophole.
Yeah, no, but not he didn't, he didn't go that far.
He just said, I'd be stupid if I didn't.
In 2016, when he said he paid almost no taxes,
this confirms that.
Right.
It does.
It does.
This is not going to change anybody's mind.
You notice there's nothing illegal.
There's nothing illegal.
They're not charging him with anything illegal.
No, but he actually took advantage of tax loopholes.
The bastard.
Is there anybody within the sound of my voice that if it was legal, you're not going to jail?
Yeah.
And you had the attorney to do it and you were paying zero or $740 a year in taxes?
Anyone within the sound of my voice, brave,
a big enough liar to call me and go, I wouldn't do that.
I would send a check to the government just to help.
And a little bit extra.
And a little extra.
You know, it would be your patriotic duty, honestly.
It's your patriotic duty to pay taxes when they're not pissing all of your tax money away.
But when they're pissing your money away, when
they're a horrible, bad steward to your money,
I can guarantee you that the money I give in tithing and charity,
that money goes further than the, what, 50% that they take from me.
You know what I mean?
Yeah.
By far by far and there's stuff in there that like he might have to pay fines for in theory or that he could get in that quote-unquote trouble for but this is all trouble as in fines yeah fines right uh he's been in a long-term battle over about 70 million dollars that he got in a return which doesn't seem exactly like he followed the rules on it but the bottom line is exactly exactly zero minds are changed by it exactly but can you count all of those minds
yes zero No, not one person would change it.
In fact, I found myself, and I've never found myself in this position.
I found myself this morning listening to the news again, the way it was reported by the New York Times, and I was cheering.
I was cheering.
Good for him.
Damn right, zero.
How do I get those attorneys?
I know, geez.
And I don't know what their...
What the point of this is.
I mean,
the only thing about it is, of course, how did they get this?
How did they get 20 years of his tax returns?
Well, they don't want to say that.
They can't even show us the documents.
No,
they have to preserve
their one anonymous source.
And I'd like to show you the paperwork, but I can't.
You know what else is great?
Not a word about the fact that he accepts no income as president.
That he doesn't take a dime from the government.
He doesn't get any of the $400,000 in salary.
I mean, wouldn't that be a good place to mention?
Oh, and by the way,
he doesn't take a salary
for president of the United States.
Here's the thing that everybody should be talking about.
Here's a guy who has a global
hotel chain, okay?
And it pretty much verifies what we all know.
It's successful at times and really not successful in times.
You know what I mean?
So we all know that.
So there's no surprise there.
Here's the thing that everybody should be asking about: Joe Biden's $3 million tax
returns.
Yeah, where's the money coming from?
He's a guy who is
living on a government salary.
Now, I know when you were vice president, you wrote a book, et cetera, et cetera.
But how is everybody in his family himself?
So rich?
I mean,
middle-class Joe, $3 million?
Lunch bucket.
Wow.
That's a lunch bucket's low salary right there.
Yeah.
yeah yeah it is laughable and it's funny too to think back at all the things that we begged the media to dig into during the Obama era that they never did we never even like his college transcripts like basic crap that wouldn't have made a big difference at all we never got over all those years they were able to get 20 years of Donald Trump's tax returns in in something that is not illegal for the New York Times to do but whoever gave it to them certainly committed a crime right that's why that's why well we can't reveal our source right Because it's a criminal.
Right.
Because the person who gave it to you just committed a crime.
Don't they think it was Mary Trump?
Isn't that
what they think?
Did they suspect?
Is that what they think, really?
I think so.
Yeah.
I think they're serious.
Seriously?
I think seriously.
I don't know.
I can't remember.
I read an article, though, that
they suspected strongly that it might have been Mary Trump.
Well, I have news for you.
I mean, you say, how would she do that?
She's a judge.
You don't think that there's people that she could call?
Because it came from
the sister,
the niece.
Yeah, the one that wrote the book.
That doesn't make sense.
Yeah, I mean, unless they might share the same account into me, but still, there'd have to be somebody who did something very wrong here.
Again, just because he's the president of the United States does not mean he does not have the right to privacy.
So let me ask you, Amy Coney Barrett, you know who's going to be responsible for her becoming Supreme Court, I really think, in the end?
I've got a couple of names.
Yeah.
One would be Harry Reid.
I was going to say Chuck Schumer.
Chuck Schumer.
Chuck Schumer.
Nancy Pelosi.
I'd say Dianne Feinstein, I would say, is the number one.
Dianne Feinstein.
They did
everything.
They are the reason why you don't have a 60-person vote.
Yes, no.
Harry Reid.
That's brought that in.
Yeah, right.
Started that ball rolling.
I mean, they did everything.
Just the Kavanaugh turned enough people that they said, this is not right.
Tamala Harris was big on that one.
Big.
Big.
And the one specific question about the dogma lives loudly within you came from Diane Feinstein, which is like the kind of the big slogan of
the Amy Coney Barrett nomination.
And I love this.
The dogma lives loudly.
So in other words, you have a problem
that I believe in the things I profess to believe.
That's the dogma.
So Nancy is fine because she's not Catholic.
The Pope is coming out like every 10 minutes going, hey, stop with abortion.
You know, but the dogma doesn't live loudly.
It doesn't even live in her neighborhood.
The dog catcher caught the dog.
What's this about dogs?
By the way, I should point out we have the notorious ACB shirt up now on stewdoesmerch.com or really shop.blaze media.
Stew doesmerch.com will get you to the whole show store.
But the notorious ACB, I feel like I got to have that.
I love that.
That's one you need.
Yeah.
That's one you need.
Can you get those overnighted for all of us?
Probably.
I could at least.
Because
we have the debate tomorrow.
We're going to do.
What is the promo code?
Glenn's debate.
Hold on.
Let me just guess at it.
Anyway, yeah.
So sign up for the Blaze because tomorrow we're doing our.
It's like a Mystery Theater 3000 thing, right?
Yeah.
Well, Stu's starting his show at like 8 o'clock, so he'll do his show.
Then we go in at 9 o'clock into just...
We're really second screen.
We're going to be saying all the things that you want to say.
We're also going to be doing some live fact checking,
but
we're going to try not to interrupt.
Except when we cheer or have really something very sarcastic to say.
That's happening tomorrow.
And then at 10 o'clock, and this will be on YouTube and the Blaze and everything else, we're going to give you our rundown and our analysis of the debate.
Because quite honestly, I don't care what anybody says anymore.
Do you?
No.
I don't care what any of these people on TV say anymore.
Oh, in fact, I can't listen to it.
I can't either.
That's the fact.
I just can't listen to it.
So we're going to be the group that you can listen to.
So tomorrow after the debate, make sure you go to Blaze TV or the Blaze TV YouTube channel and listen to our recap of the debate.
And it's blazetv.com slash Glenn, the CODIS Glenn debates.
Did you actually see the Wolf Blaze TV?
It's 20%, by the way.
Interview Richard Blumenthal over the weekend.
Oh, Gosh, I'm not sure.
Every once in a while, Wolf will do something, I don't know, journalistic.
And it blew me away.
Nah, I don't believe that.
That's a pretty strong word in today's.
It is.
It is, but he called him out.
Because here it is, real quick.
What are the Republicans doing that is illegal or illegitimate?
Because the Constitution says the president has to nominate Supreme Court justices.
The Senate has to advise and consent and confirm.
So what is illegal about what the president and the Republicans are doing?
You say it's illegitimate.
It is illegitimate.
Where does it say, Senator, where does it say that's illegitimate in the U.S.
Constitution or in the law?
Where does it say that what they're doing, the Republicans, is illegal?
Illegal, it may be not under the Constitution.
Illegal,
it may be nations and unwritten rules of the Senate is illegitimate.
Unwritten rules.
You agree that there's nothing illegal or totally illegitimate as to what they're doing.
Third time.
It may not violate the letter of the Constitution.
Right, the letter.
Okay, the letter.
Or even the whole words or the spirit of the entire document.
You could take one of those needles that they're jamming into Joe Biden's chest tomorrow, right before he goes on stage, do that to all the founders, and they would also say, nope, nah, uh-uh, has nothing to do with the Constitution.
Do you remember doing an interview with him?
Gosh, it was a long time ago.
Really, was it Fox or was it CNN?
I don't even remember.
Someone said it to me
this weekend because they were like, he's doing the same thing because you had him on about AIG bonuses or something.
It was some story.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
And you were holding his feet to the card because he was trying to make this big deal about it.
And you're like, what is illegal about this?
And he did the same thing.
The same thing.
He's like, well, it's not.
It's not illegal per se.
It's
ill-tempered.
Yeah,
it's ill-tempered.
You are
At the time, you're the attorney general.
You should really be only concerned with what's illegal, right?
You made that point pretty clearly, Joe him, in that interview.
He was not happy you did.
By the way, so you know, all the social justice warriors, relax.
Wolf Blitzer had his beard removed with duct tape right after that interview.
So he's learned his lesson.
He's learned his lesson.
Really?
Oh, yeah.
Wow, that's right.
Wait till you see him today.
Well, nobody will see him.
He might even, by the time you see him, he'll probably have his beard grown back.
My guess is Wolf's beard would grow in every day.
If you removed it every day, it would grow right back.
His name is Wolf.
That's what I mean.
It's just there.
All right.
Here's a fun fact.
Getting older every day.
Yay!
And the things that come with getting older, aches and pains.
Your joints start to wear down.
The normal exercise of everyday life begins to catch up with you.
Yeah, see, I told you, exercise is bad for you.
Most of what causes this pain and a lot of other forms of pain is inflammation, especially in the joints.
And if you're going to go through it, it can take, I mean, your whole life will change if you don't do anything.
Every day, a little less brighter.
You know what I mean?
And you're like, okay, the walls are closing in on me.
Help!
We can help you.

You're listening to Glenn Beck.
Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.
I want to go to Linda in Pennsylvania.
Hi, Linda.
How are you?
I'm good.
I'm just, I have to call in because I'm constantly watching the news.
I'm constantly watching Fox news because that's where I get the discussion.
Got it, got it.
Yep.
Good for you.
I'm a senior, and
I went to this store a few weeks back, and I saw this bumper sticker.
And it said, did you realize that those people that support abortion were born?
That's That's a big car to have a.
Yeah,
it was.
Yeah, okay.
It just hit home to me.
Yeah.
I was born and raised Catholic.
And none of the people that are out there that are proclaimed to be Catholic are the way I was brought up.
Right.
Did you call about the Amish?
Because that's what my note says.
You had something in comment on the Amish.
Yeah.
And also,
in 2016,
I was up in Lancaster County.
and I had to have some work done on
when I went
in, the Amish
man said to me, who are you voting for?
And I said, I'm going to vote for Trump.
And he said,
I'm glad to hear that.
And he came out.
My cousin was in the car.
He came out and he asked her, who's she going to vote for?
So there are a lot of probably Mennonites or Amish who are out there, and they are going to do the voting.
And so I cannot
rely on all these polls.
I myself am not
aware of that.
Okay.
Linda, thank you very much for your phone call.
It was a long journey.
But
I don't know how many, I mean.
I mean, I don't know that the Amish are really going to affect the vote.
Oh, I think so.
To me, the only demographic that matters.
If Trump doesn't come out anti-electricity tomorrow, he's dead.
I mean, this election's over.
Right, right.
I mean, what would change their mind?
Have the Amish really been affected by,
you know, they don't, they're not watching the news.
They're not like, oh, man, CNN has really pulled the wool over our eyes.
Literally the wool, too, because we haven't even made it into anything.
We're just sitting here with wool close to our faces.
Piles of wool.
Who wins the piles of wool vote?
Who does?
No one's even talking about it.
Who does?
Let me go to
Felipe or Philippi, as they would say in Houston.
Felipe.
Yes.
Yes.
Go ahead.
You're on.
Hello, Ben.
I'm so happy to be able to come through.
Thank you.
Okay, so I'm calling the reason I'm calling, and you're doing good work.
Very good work, by the way.
So the reason I'm calling is because I'm tired of that
Fauci.
He's a farce.
He's a farce.
And you know something?
I'm a little bit disappointed in Fox News because they're also peddling some
lies, you know, some like about Brianna Taylor saying that
she's an innocent dove.
I mean, somebody that
has a dead body in her trinket is not an innocent dove.
I think she was definitely not.
She's not dating an innocent dove.
I don't think anyone's ever said that.
Really, the guy she was dating was pretty nasty.
Yeah, but she, I mean, she wasn't the shooter.
She didn't.
And the police do not believe she had
anything to do with any of it.
So I appreciate it.
Those were, that was fun.
We need to give the callers more practice.
We're not taking enough calls.
We are not taking enough calls.
This is our fault.
Just so we got to cut to the chase as quickly as we can.
And we apologize for us
falling down on the job.
But thank you so much for listening and calling in Senator Mike Lee and a lot of information on the nomination of our next Supreme Court justice in a minute.
I want to talk to you about this great company in Dayton, Ohio, called Tempogenics.

This is the Glembeck program.
So I have to tell you,
first of all, thank you to Bilt Barr for sponsoring this half hour of the Blaze broadcast.
I have to tell you, last night I was talking to my wife because I went to go grab a Bilt Barr.
Yeah.
And it was all, she's like, oh, there's like lots left.
And I went in and they're all coconut.
And you don't because she's like, I love the coconut, but that's all she orders.
And I'm like, can you think of other people from time to time?
My gosh.
Wait, do you love the coconut or do you not love the coconut?
I love the coconut.
So why are you complaining about them ordering the coconut?
She hasn't had the cookies and cream.
She hasn't had the mint brownie.
She hasn't had the caramel brownie.
She hasn't had any of those.
So she's the type that she gets one that she likes and she just sticks to it for her.
And I understand that because, I mean, it used to be like that with Atkins.
You know, things that are healthy for you.
They usually suck.
And so when you find one you can tolerate, that's not Bilt Bar.
These are all really good.
It's like going to the Cheesecake Factory, you know, and having the same entree every single time.
You know, you know, branch out.
They're really good.
They're all really pretty good.
Seems like most of the flavors of Cheesecake that they have at the Cheesecake Factory are Built Bars.
Yeah.
Like, that's how good these flavors are.
These are so good.
They're protein bars.
They're like 130 calories.
They're healthy, high-protein, low-calorie, high-fiber, low-carb.

Hello, America.
Welcome to the program.
Some numbers for you.
We are 233 days since the last death in Afghanistan of a U.S.
soldier.
233 days.
Where's the press on that one?
That's a remarkable, remarkable stat.
And we haven't heard anything about Afghanistan.
Congratulations to the president and our military.
233 days without a death.
That is substantial.
Now let's get the rest of our boys home and end this madness.
Another stat for you.
It looks like it's going to be about three weeks before we hear from Amy
Coney Barrett.
Why?
Why?
Why?
Why, why, why, why, why?
Mike Lee is going to be here with the answer for that.
And we are one day away from the first debate.
Me?
I can't wait.
I cannot wait.
We'll give you all of the updates on all those things and much more in 60 seconds.

So I want to talk to you about Car Shield.
I just was at the ranch over the weekend and driving the trucks, and I can't believe some of these trucks are still standing.
I mean, we work them hard at the ranch, and yet they're still going.
The reason why is because we have Car Shield.
There are things that I just would not have fixed on these trucks, and I would have just said it's just not worth, you know, $6,000 to repair that chip on that truck.
But I have insurance.
I have
a...
extended plan, if you will, from Car Shield.
So they cover all the big repairs.
That's why my cars have lasted.
That's why I didn't have to shell out for a new truck.
Car Shield, you have peace of mind.

From
the state of Utah, Senator Mike Lee joins us today.
Senator, how are you, sir?
I'm doing great.
Just, you know, eating built bars,
one right after the other, and playing car shields and all that type of stuff.
Yeah, shut up.
Have you ever had a Bilt Bar?
Never.
You should.
I mean, look at you.
Yeah, you're a little puddy.
Yeah, no.
In Utah, we're going to speak of or eat little else other than Bilt Bar.
It's the Built Bar all the time.
All the time.
Good.
I'm glad you're here.
The Built bar economy.
Really glad to hear it.
What are you drunk today?
I mean, this is the Mike Lee I know, but the Mike Lee that is usually on the air is very buttoned up and very serious.
Yeah, hey, this is what happens when a Mormon has a Diet Coke before 10 a.m.
All right.
So, Mike, congratulations
on the nomination.
I think this is the person that you really wanted.
Out of all of the lists, is this the person you would have picked?
She's fantastic, and I think she's going to do an amazing job.
And I told the president
this really was good work on his part.
We're going to get her confirmed.
So may I ask, why is it going to take until October 12th to start the process?
Yeah, that's a
fair question.
I wish we could start it faster than that.
I was told by the chairman that that would be the day that we would start.
There were a couple of us who asked whether we could start it a week earlier or even sooner than that.
And he pointed out that there's a lot of paperwork that has to be filled out by the nominee, a lot of process that has to occur behind it.
He's already filled that out.
Yeah, but
the FBI has already done that.
We were told nonetheless,
what we were told needs to happen.
So look, let me put it this way, Clint.
Yeah.
All right.
If he decides to start the hearing tomorrow,
I'm here.
I'm ready to go.
There is nothing in the Constitution.
There's nothing in federal statute that requires us us even to hold a hearing.
There's certainly nothing in the Constitution or in federal statute requiring us to wait a certain period of time before starting said hearings, if we're going to have them at all, which we're going to do.
So I think we ought to do it sooner rather than later because the sooner we get that started, the sooner we can get her confirmed.
So
we need to face down the uncertainty and we need to resolve the uncertainty so we can get this job done so they can't pull crap like what they pulled with Brett Kavanaugh.
The reason why I say October 12th is in the year 2020, that's a lifetime.
We could all be speaking some space language by that time.
And it pushes the vote to October, what, 29th, Stu?
October 29th.
That's right away, just a few days from the election.
If it's stalled, delayed, anything changes,
you could see a vote that doesn't happen until after the election, and then you know, well, I won't put words in your mouth, put words in my mouth.
Then the Romney weasels will all scatter and go, well, I don't know.
Trump didn't win the election.
Should he not win?
Yeah, let's just say that
we'll stipulate for the record that that would be bad if you were to push until after the election.
Because once it's sort of like crossing the streams on ghostbusters, once you do that, all sorts of bad stuff starts to happen.
If you wait until after the election, then if we lose the election, either the Senate majority or the White House, or heaven forbid, both, then you've got some people doubting whether we should be doing this or not.
And so, yeah, this needs to happen sooner rather than later.
It needs to get started, ASAP.
So, did you read the
op-ed from Bloomberg,
written by
somebody who I think clerked with her
for a different judge in the Supreme Court?
And he said, I disagree with Trump's judicial nominee on almost everything, but I think she's brilliant.
And he's a lefty who doesn't agree with
the way she does things or what she's going to pass as verdict.
He said, but she is so smart that you want someone like her on the court to analyze.
He said, even though I disagreed with her, he said, I would go to her for the understanding of what these tangled words meant sometimes because she could just so clearly cut through it and explain it.
Yes, yes, I read that and I thought it was fantastic.
And I think it's one of the many reasons why she needs to be confirmed and why she will be confirmed.
I mean, look, this is somebody who has dedicated her life to the law and also dedicated her life to raising her seven children.
She's fantastic.
And Professor Noah Feldman was exactly right.
She needs to be confirmed.
So
we've got to get the show on the road.
So
do you have any inkling on what the Democrats are going to try to use again?
Because if they use religion or they try another Kavanaugh, it's going to kill them.
It's going to kill them during the election.
Yes, it is.
And so one would ordinarily think that that means that they won't try that because it would be extraordinarily harmful to them.
But it's sort of like those nature videos you'd watch on the Discovery Channel when you see the wildebeest approaching the water that they know is
going to be infected.
Don't do it.
They're really thirsty.
They've got to get to that water.
And they can't help themselves.
That might be what we see here.
The last time in Judiciary Committee, when I brought up with some of my colleagues, maybe we shouldn't
start questioning
a judicial nominee's religious beliefs because there are at least two, arguably three provisions of the Constitution that prohibit us from doing that, and because it's evil.
And because it's evil.
And they honestly said, oh, no, no.
We really think that if a nominee has crazy religious beliefs,
we're going to attack him for that, and we should.
This was on the record.
This was in the light of day.
So you don't think that they're going to stop it because
they did something I think just as bad.
It's not unconstitutional to do this, but
they attacked
her adoption of her non-white kids.
And somehow or another, that's racist.
Yeah, yeah, apparently so.
I didn't know that.
I didn't either.
And neither did she.
But apparently, they are the deciders of such things, and they have made that decision.
They've also made the decision as came out in her last confirmation hearing for the U.S.
Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit, that
she she was apparently too Catholic, that the dogma lives loudly within her, and that that's somehow bad.
So, yeah, I suspect those things will come out, not because it will do them any good, not because it will enable them to defeat her, not because it will help them in this election, but because they can't help it.
Do you think things would have been the same?
Do you think she would have been nominated and you could be as assured as anyone could be that it will go through
if Kavanaugh wouldn't have happened?
I think they really pushed their luck on Kavanaugh.
I think they threw the Hail Mary pass
in the very final seconds of the game
and they lost.
I do think it's going to be a little bit harder for them to pull this trick this time, especially because as I pointed out in our Judiciary Committee hearing on Thursday,
I went through the list of people they personally attacked and just getting started, just rattling off a few names.
You know, there's Brett Kavanaugh, and of course, there's Robert Bork,
and of course, there's my former boss, Sam Alito, and then there's Clarence Thomas, all of whom had their character personally attacked to the core on things that turned out to be really untrue and really uncorroborated.
And I said, no, I challenge you guys to name me one, name me one
Democratic nominee who's ever been treated that way by Republicans.
Crickets.
This is from a group of people who can't shut up.
This is from a group of people who spoke for a really, really long time that day about everything else.
They had no response to that because that's not how we roll.
And so I think deep in their mind, they realize that what they're doing is wrong, that what they're doing beclowns them and
demeans the process.
And so I hope they will find some conscience in there.
Talking to Senator Mike Lee, speaking of Democrats be clowning themselves,
great word, by the way.
They are threatening all sorts of procedural delays, including and up to throwing random impeachments in the process to try to delay this thing so they can get it past the election.
Is it possible that any of that can work?
It's possible they can delay it.
So I was on
the ABC Sunday News show yesterday, and one of my Democratic colleagues, Dick Durbin from Illinois, was opposite me and being questioned by George Stephanopoulos.
And Mr.
Stephanopoulos asked Senator Durbin whether they would be doing that.
And Senator Durbin, as I recall, basically said, look,
we can delay this by maybe a couple days, but
I really don't think we have the procedural wherewithal to just stop it.
I hope that that remains the case.
I hope that that's not bluffing and that that
is
true, sincere, and correct assessment.
But we're going to have to plan for that because there are procedural tools that they can pull, including those that involve impeachment, that can at least make it more difficult for us.
So
off of the nomination of the Supreme Court here, and one last question,
because you will know what this means.
You know, when we declare an emergency, people don't understand that that gives all kinds of new power and spending and everything else.
There's a story that came out over the weekend.
President Donald Trump slated to announce a measure that designates far-left movement and Tifa and the KKK as terrorist organizations.
What does that designation mean?
Anything?
Okay, so it's been a while since I've looked at that designation, but it allows the president to utilize certain assets,
certain levers of authority within the government, including a Treasury Department, to block, among other things, financial transactions carried out by the organization in question so that we can stop them from engaging in acts of terror.
And so this could be a significant move.
I certainly think that
in both cases, in the case of the KKK
and TIFA, you've seen a whole lot of evidence that terror is their game.
So
and I know of no reason why the law, as written, wouldn't extend to those categories.
So makes sense to me.
Okay.
Mike Lee, thank you very much.
God bless.
Hey, thank you very much.
You bet.
Bye-bye.

10 seconds, station ID.
There was a great story in the Washington Examiner I read this weekend.
If Amy Coett Barrett joins the Supreme Court later this year, conservatives will rightly be thrilled, but maybe Democrats and the left will question their scorched earth tactics of the past few years.
Had Democrats been more restrained and more bound by norms of the judicial confirmation process, Barrett wouldn't be in the position she's in today as the nominee with 51 very likely votes in the U.S.
Senate in the U.S.
Senate.
When talking about judicial wars, it's always possible to go back to Estrada or Robert Bork or even Roe v.
Wade.
But here it's not necessary.
You can go back to 2013 and look at four decisions made by Senate Democrats that if they wouldn't have done
in maybe even just one of these four, Barrett wouldn't be here.
First one, nuking the filibuster.
Harry Reed, former Democratic majority leader, faced heavy pressure for years from liberal judicial groups, especially abortion advocates, to go nuclear.
Finally, in President Barack Obama's second term, Reed pushed the button.
Reed abolished all Senate rules, in effect, by declaring for the first time ever that a majority of senators could change the Senate rules.
Then the Democratic majority used this power to abolish the filibuster on nominees to district and circuit courts.
It only took 51 votes rather than 60 to invoke cloture and proceed to a nomination of the circuit court judge.
About four and a half years later, Barrett's nomination moved to the floor with 54-42 cloture vote.
Were it not for Reed's nuclear attack in 2013, Barrett might not be even a federal judge today.
Second, filibustering Gorch Gorsuch.
The next filibuster nuke was by Republican leader Mitch McConnell in 2017.
Democrats filibustered the eminently qualified and totally uncontroversial nominee Neil Gorsuch, picked to replace by the late conservative Justin Antony Scalia.
The filibuster by Democrats made it perfectly clear they intended to filibuster every single President Trump nominee to the Supreme Court no matter what.
With that fact evident, it was easy for McConnell to convince enough Republicans to vote in their are no rules environment that he inherited from Reed to nuke the filibuster for Supreme Court nominees.
Had Democrats gone the high road and allowed a vote on Gorsuch, such as Republicans had allowed votes on every Democratic nominee for a generation, then McConnell would not have had the opportunity to push the nuclear button.
Had they not filibustered Gorsuch, Trump might have been forced to nominate a 60-vote consensus candidate to replace Kavanaugh and the filibuster might still exist today.
Next, the dogma lives loudly within you.
Conservative legal scholars were always going to be excited by Barrett's nomination to the circuit court, but what made her cause
a celebrity was the Democrats' nasty culture war attack on her.
They never marshaled any evidence that Barrett substituted on her own religious beliefs for the law of the Constitution.
And so they were reduced to utterly distorting her record and just admitting that her living as a religious pro-family Catholic creeped them out.
It was the naked admission of Feinstein
and her case against Barrett that Barrett actually takes seriously the teachings of the Catholic Church that doomed the Democrats.
This is becoming a rallying cry for conservative Catholics and religious conservatives broadly.
It laid bare the bigotry of the other side's culture warriors.
And so for a guy who likes to fight like Trump, it made Barrett the natural pick.
The fourth thing that they said, if the Democrats wouldn't have done, things would have been different, smearing Kavanaugh.
Now, I'm wondering if they're going to, or if the press will even start to see a pattern here, that everything is falling apart on them.
You know, the support for Black Lives Matter
is down in the 20s now.
They were more popular than the military just a couple of months ago.
Why?
Because it was jammed down everybody's throat and you were told that these are peaceful instead of what they really were.
People want to make up their own mind and they know when they sniff out a lie.
The same thing with Donald Trump and the media.
I think the media and impeachment and the Russia collusion thing, I think those two things, along with the media, are the reason why Donald Trump will have the votes that he has come November 4th.
I think people have been red pilled by the media and the overreach of the left.
This is the Glenn Beck program.
Leftist corporations like Verizon have empowered radicals to tear our country apart by funding their efforts, most recently sending $10 million to Al Sharpton and others like him.
Look at what the leftists have done to this country.
Started with impeachment, then they exploited the pandemic, then it came to rioting and looting, and now they're threatening violence over filling a vacant seat on the Supreme Court.
Where does this end?
Well, it can end with you.
Stop funding these movements by sending a check to a company that is sending some of their profits to those movements.
Patriot Mobile shares your values, won't send your hard-earned money to aid in the destruction of America.
In fact, they'll work for the causes and the values that you believe in, not against them.

This is the Glenn Beck program.
Hey,
I do have an early report.
I asked my researchers to look in to see what can you find against Amy Coney Barrett that the Democrats might use.
And they have found some things about her youth.
I hope they're not going to use these things,
but they very well might.
They're already saying she's a racist because she has kids that are not white and that all of a sudden is racist.
Oh,
okay.
So they might.
But a man has come forward under under the banner of hashtag men2.
It hasn't caught on yet.
But he said that in the second grade, Amy and her best friend at the time cornered him at a birthday party at Chuck E.
Cheese and gave him cooties.
And
apparently injected him a full dose of cooties,
which if true.
I mean, that would disqualify her.
I don't even want her on the court if that's true.
Yeah, there's another woman who says that when she was nine,
she lived on the same street as Amy Coney Barrett, and she said that Coney Barrett borrowed a VHS tape, Herbie Goes Bananas, didn't return it for like six months, and then when she got it back, it wasn't even rewound.
So that's rewind, rewind.
Yeah, well, the FBI has interviewed at least two witnesses so far.
They say the tape wasn't rewound, and it was very upsetting to the nine-year-old owner at the time, but it's troubling.
That kind of integrity, you know, that you want to see in a Supreme Court justice was not there when Amy was nine, apparently.
And the real bombshell that I think they're going to be using is about the drinking problem
that she had.
Apparently, in elementary school,
she liked to drink milk and lots of it.
And
neighbor says she frequently witnessed Connie Barrett and her friends chugging those little cartons of milk.
That stuff from the udder of a cow?
Yeah, often whole.
I mean, not even 2%, just whole milk, chocolate milk.
Sometimes, I mean, they had so much of it, she said that she actually witnessed Amy wasting it, blowing it out of her nose after she drank it.
Oh, my gosh.
So.
Now, she wasn't responsible for Herbie actually going bananas.
No.
Okay.
We don't know that yet.
I would not be surprised if you know that.
No.
No, but going bananas
is what is being charged that she made another kid, now man, go bananas
because a group of four or five of her friends, they don't know where yet, where this happened.
The recollection is a little fuzzy, but apparently they gang graped him on the playground during recess.
What happened?
He was gang graped.
What do you mean, gang?
Gang graped?
Gang graped.
Yeah.
Gang graped?
Yeah, they would take grapes from the cafeteria and then just pelt him in broad daylight.
They think they remember it happening, this horrible, horrendous gang grape that happened on the playground.
And apparently he recalls Amy and her friends just laughing the whole time while they were gang graping him.
So, I mean, obviously, if any of these allegations are even half true, no senator
can do that.
In fact, Romney was really upset at the gang graping.
A lot of fruit-related issues she's had in her past.
Yeah, as well as the abuse of illicit cooties,
the very questionable calcium habits that she had, and of course, the gang graping.
Calcium is a drug, in my opinion.
It should be banned.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Wow.
Well, now
where was Mike Lee on any of this?
I know.
Even if any of these are not used, I mean, they can always fall back on the deranged preference that she has to let babies be born.
Ew, ew.
The whole thing's gross.
Right.
I mean, you want a Supreme Court justice that it was gang graping people?
No.
No.
I know I don't.
Thank you.
I know, I don't.
Thank you.
I'm much more disturbed about the whole babies being born thing, though.
That's wrong.
That's wrong.
Well, but if you do believe that, you should adopt, unless you're her,
because
that is just a sign of her colonialism.
Right.
I mean, for adopting a kid from Haiti.
Stealing children that are black from Haiti doesn't make you a non-racist.
Right.
Well, it's because Amy, and I'm quoting somebody who doesn't know her,
quote, she sees
a chance for this white colonizer
to save these savage children in the superior ways of white people.
You're talking, of course, Ibram Kendi here.
Yeah, who doesn't know Amy at all.
No, but he does know white people.
He does.
He is a racist.
They use these black children or brown children or yellow children or whatever kind of children you have, except for white, and it props in their
lifelong pictures of denial.
They're just
like scenery on a stage.
It's just a prop or a tool.
They don't actually
see them as kids.
Oh.
And they cut the biological parents,
you know,
the relationship that they had with their parents
and cuts that right off.
Now, if you think all of that sounds as sensible as we do, is gang graping?
The gang graping done by.
Done by Amy Coney Barrett.
And don't forget four or five of her friends.
And we don't even know.
We don't know their names.
Probably serial killers today.
Probably.
If you want a book by Ibram Kendi that's targeted at your baby, feel free to go to Target and get it because that's where they sell it.
Anti-racist baby by Ibram Kendi.
It's available at Target and almost every bookstore you'll walk into if any of them.
Say, look up Book Scan.
See how many copies that book has sold.
That's not how Book Scan works.
You can't just look up Book Scan and see how many copies it's...
You actually can, but...
You're not me.
Yeah, and if you were you,
you would be breaking the rules by saying it on the air anyway.
So I wouldn't want to give it to you.
I'm not saying it on the air.
You'd blurt it out on the air.
I'm not saying it on the air.
Point is, this guy says.
Oh my gosh.
Stations, edit that out.
You could see him on the Today Show.
He's everywhere.
Oprah.
He's widely accepted.
And here is a man who is outwardly advocating for discrimination against white people.
He is saying that because there was past discrimination by the system, which of course he defines basically exclusively as white people, we design the system.
It's a Western way of life.
The only solution to past discrimination is present discrimination.
The only solution to present discrimination is future discrimination.
He is telling the American people he wants white people to be discriminated against.
And his book for babies is on sale at Target.
So when
I said,
I wouldn't say
per se that he is racist, but he seems to have a deep-seated hatred for the white culture.
Does that seem like it's really super accurate right now?
You know,
that does sound pretty accurate.
It's not like he just hates white people.
It's just that he hates the white culture.
He pretty much does hate white people, but yes, he also hates white people.
No, I'm very well aware of that, but at the time, I may have tried to be a little more sensitive in my insensitive and racist comment
that seems to hold up now over time.
Seems to be like, oh, I don't know.
Oh, Katie, when I said white culture, this is what I meant about white culture.
I mean, this is the same, this is essentially an academic face on the rantings of Jeremiah Wright.
Oh, yeah.
It really is
Abram Kendi, and he is widely accepted.
He is designing training
programs for your company and your company.
And your kids.
And your kids.
And your kids, like legitimately, directly a book to kids.
There's a book that, this anti-race, racist baby book, you'll see the pictures where there's this wonderful child of color that is being held by their parent, and they just want to touch the butterfly.
There's a butterfly flying around.
No, I love butterflies.
As a white kid, no.
No, because there's an evil white arm in the side with a
net for all the butterflies, catching all the butterflies for the white kids.
And we stomp on them after we catch them.
But you know what?
Go teach your baby that.
Because babies, here's the thing about kids, Glenn.
They don't give a crap about any of this nonsense no they don't care about your stupid color of skin that's not true nonsense kids will not
do it to them no kids will not play with kids that look differently in any way shape or form shockingly they will all the time they don't care they don't care until their dumb parents start making this new a big deal science denier Just like they don't care about eye color.
Science denier.
They don't care about other immutable characteristics.
They only care about skin color because for some reason, we're teaching them about racism when they're babies.
And by the way, teaching teaching them not just about that racism is wrong, but that white people are inherently and cannot avoid the racism that they have inside of them.
You speak the truth now.
Oh, wait, I forgot which side I was on.
Okay, that's okay.
That's all right.
We're going to talk to bait when we come back in just a minute.
First, let me tell you about Simply Safe.
Somewhere out there, maybe in your neighborhood right now, is a burglar.
Man of very fine tastes.
I wouldn't mind helping himself to your TV or your laptop.
You know, maybe maybe the Xbox or PlayStation, and of course, all that sweet cash that you've hidden so cleverly behind the portrait of your aunt on the wall or in the refrigerator under the peas.
Yeah, that'd be the first time he finds that.
He knows that most successful burglaries take about 15 minutes from start to finish.
He didn't mind those odds.
You know, taking that cheesecake out of the refrigerator might be a step too far, but you know, some of us, some of them, might be willing to take that risk.
Too bad you don't have SimplySafe when it really, really counted.
Or too bad for him that you do have SimplySafe.
They make it easy and affordable to have the best home security on the market.
Their state-of-the-art equipment, round-the-clock monitoring, makes SimplySafe the first name in the business.
The monitoring is 50 cents a day, and you own the system.
And you're not going to believe how inexpensive this system is.

This is the Glenbeck program.
Okay, so we have the debate tomorrow.
I mean,
who's going to miss that?
Seriously.
Who is going to miss that?
The first one is always, you know, the biggest ratings.
Oh, yeah.
This is the one.
This is tomorrow.
Yeah.
It's here.
That is terrifying.
And are you,
I'm not confident that Trump will win.
I think people are always so...
We have lowered the standards for Joe Biden so far that if he just shows up.
Remember, a couple of weeks ago, we didn't know if he'd even show up.
I would say half the people around this building have made the prediction to me that he's going going to, quote unquote, get COVID and not make the debate.
Oh, that's funny.
He'll make it.
He'll make it.
I think he'll make the first one.
Yeah, and I mean, you know, one could pray that he, you know,
bluffs and just gets caught
and just makes himself, it makes it clear to the American people how unclear he actually is.
But I don't know if that's going to happen.
I mean, if I were Donald Trump,
if he just completely
melts down and just is like,
and he starts looking like
an old person really struggling,
Donald Trump should just say,
this makes me, I feel really uncomfortable right now because obviously we're all going to hit a point to where we're not, our minds aren't functioning the way they used to.
And
the compassionate thing would be to call an end to this debate right now, but we'll continue.
It's unfair what the Democrats are doing to this man.
Yeah, unfair what the Democrats are doing.
Look, but again, that is the thing we have to step back from because we've seen so many bad clips of Joe Biden over the past six months, right?
Where he's been out of sorts and he's done
this terrible routine that happens over and over again.
A couple of things to remember.
He's usually talking for long periods of time, and those moments are usually small moments in the context of a longer speech or interview that the clips just leak out to us on the right, and we only see those.
There are plenty of moments where he looks relatively coherent in these interviews.
And that's something to remember because the American people are only seeing, are expecting him to bumble his way through every answer.
He's not going to.
The second part, well, he may, but I mean,
if you're depending on that to win your election, you're in trouble.
You're in trouble.
Secondly,
we watched Joe Biden in 12, what was it, 12 debates for the primary?
Yeah.
He's done this relatively recently.
And in those debates, he never had a great performance.
He was never, I would say, even good.
But there were some of those debates where he was just average.
That's all he has to do.
If he can hit average, it's going to be difficult to turn the narrative of this campaign around.
You know, Trump is, he's trying to pull off something that is almost impossible, right?
Trump?
Yes.
Oh, yeah.
He's starting from, here's a guy who, I mean, he came into office, right, in a very divided country, in a very close election, which he lost the popular vote and won the electoral vote.
He comes into office.
He's been a president with an incredibly steady approval rating, which has been in the low to mid-40s the entire time through four years.
He is now
under a relentless attack from the media, four years of being attacked by the media.
Then he comes in to the election year with a really good argument to say, look, the economy is really strong.
Things are going well.
You might not like my attitude, but look at the results.
And then gets hit by a global pandemic that wipes the economy out and has killed 200,000 plus people.
Now we're at a point where the economy still
is recovering, but it's not all the way back yet.
And he's trying to still fight this media against a president or a contender for president that the best case scenario is to be out of the limelight as much as possible, which he's been able to pull off because of the pandemic.
So now he goes into a race where he's in, you know, you can say what you want about the polls, but he's had a pretty consistent,
he's been behind a pretty consistent level for a while because people haven't been focusing on the election.
This is his turn to say, look, now it's time to focus.
Do you really want this guy running this response?
Look at him.
And
if he looks...
competent, there will be a lot of people who are on the fence right now who are thinking, I don't know if he's going to be able to make it for four years.
They want to return to
what they think he will bring, which is stability, not knowing what he has built all around him.
Because the media has been covering for him the whole time.
So
his administration is the most radical administration ever in the history of America.
If he's not in charge and pushes back on that, you're going to have the most radical administration in the history of the country.
But most people don't know that, and so they'll just watch for his performance.
And if he is competent and can hold his own, that might be enough for him in a debate to be declared the winner.
Let's put it into perspective.

Hello, America.
Welcome to Monday.
I want to talk to you about the election, the debate, the poll numbers,
but also
the theft of the election, the newest, latest evidence of Democrats taking these ballots by bulk
and doing what they want with the ballots.
Is this even a trustworthy situation?
And our latest evidence comes from Minnesota and everyone's favorite congresswoman, Elon Omar, in 60 seconds.
This is the Glenn Beck program.
All right, I want you to get your financial house in order.
I will tell you,
I went up to the ranch this weekend and I met with the county sheriffs in both of the counties that I live by and talked to them.
And I wasn't alone, which was amazing.
There were about six guys that went with me
that were from the town.
I didn't even know them, but from the town, and talking to the sheriff and saying, you know, we support you, whatever you need.
What do we need to do to make sure that no crazy business happens here in town?
And he was talking about, I don't want any vigilante stuff.
That's not what's going to happen.
We're just going to have law and order, but believe me, we'll all stand together as a community.
If you haven't done that, you really need to.
I would like to urge you in the next week to call your sheriff in your county.
Remember, the sheriffs,
their only responsibility is to protect and defend the Constitution
and help the people that stand with the Constitution.
They answer to the people and the Constitution.
They don't answer to anybody else.
So our sheriffs are really going to be the ones that fix everything, or at least we will hold the line.
But if you have the wrong sheriff, boy, make sure you know who you're voting for.
And if they're not up for re-election, make sure that you go and tell them that you support them, if indeed you do.
Find out where they stand on things because that makes a real difference.
Anyway, as you're getting your house in order and you're doing all kinds of things, may I suggest you get your financial house in order?
And a way to do that is a refi of your mortgage.
Get your interest rate down.
If you have over 4%, you're way overpaying.
You could be paying like 2%.
If you have a mortgage and you can refi, fold all of your high-interest credit card debt and any high-interest debt into that home mortgage without resetting the final payment.
You will, because of the interest rate, you are going to save so much money.
You'll be able to pay those credit card debts off.

Ilana Mar.
Ilana Marr.
Ilana Marr.
Yes, that's right.
Time for our Ilana Marr update.
Everybody's favorite congresswoman.
Yeah, she gets herself into trouble from time to time, but just like Lucy and Ethel,
you know, this crazy kid has the Attorney General to watch her back, kind of like Ethel did with Lucy.
So we are going to check in now with David Steinberg.
He's an investigative reporter.
He has been following Elon Omar and had some information
on
the actual.
Yeah.
I'm sorry.
I'm being talked to in my ear.
I can't understand.
Anyway, David Steinberg is here.
He has had information on Ilana Mark, as I understand it.
Hasn't been able to share it because he didn't have the smoking gun.
He had bullets.
And now may be willing to uncover some of those things that he had found on ballot harvesting fraud.
It's legal to ballot harvest.
I don't know why in Minnesota.
But
the fraud that goes along with it was exposed by by Project Veritas this weekend.
Welcome, David.
Glenn, thanks for having me again.
Absolutely.
So
let me play the audio here from Project Veritas so people know what the new information is.
Listen.
Who is the one filling out the absentee ballots for
the business?
People who work with like Ilhan Omar and other candidates work for them.
Ilhan has a handful of people that work for her.
They came to us, to our apartments.
And they tell us that this year you're going to vote for Ilhan.
You don't go nowhere, you stay for
Philadelphia.
When it comes, we will come and get it.
You just don't go nowhere, you stay here.
They then fill out the ballot
sign the ballot for us.
They do it, but by themselves.
And then they where do they pay the money?
The minute we sign the thing, the election, and that's what you can pay.
That's pretty stunning, David.
Yeah, it's pretty stunning.
This has also been circulating,
well, locally, it's been known since 2016, her first election.
It was simply an open secret.
Now, this reached
me
and Scott Johnson at Powerline.
I believe we've been hearing this since late 2018.
regarding her having arranged a massive, massive vote buying campaign in her primary win in 2016, the general in 2016, which is when she was elected as a state representative.
And then again, in 2018, it was the primary and the general when
she was voted to Congress.
So this program is not new.
It was massive.
I have hinted at it.
I did discuss it with you briefly on the air back in May.
Right.
And I said, look, this is everywhere.
And the way I put it was, look, we are already talking about potentially the worst string of felonies committed by a congressperson in U.S.
history.
And that's before we get to the bad stuff.
And the bad stuff, which we were referencing, is this, perhaps a historically large vote buying campaign for several elections.
So
because
voting
is controlled by the state, do we need to have the Attorney General who is watching her back?
It's Keith Ellison.
Or can the federal government get involved in this?
Good question.
The answer is Keith Ellison can be bypassed here.
Cannot be or can be?
The charges are federal.
Federal, okay.
And of course,
this is not something that this isn't a situation like Portland where you get arrested and released and not charged and no bail.
If a candidate is caught bribing a voter for as little as a candy bar,
you could be facing five years in prison.
And now we are talking about hundreds, perhaps thousands of votes over at least four elections.
But you have to believe that those in the Somali community are going to be very apprehensive apprehensive to talk to investigators.
I mean, it's a scary
if this is truly going on, then it means that everything else that is linked to it, the threat of violence, et cetera, et cetera, if you
blow the whistle here, that that's also true.
Well, sure.
We've published plenty of evidence that her campaign, I mean, we have video evidence.
Once again, what we have here, this person actually posted online
the video that O'Keefe has posted, he was bragging about what he was doing, just posted it online, and it was out there.
That's the same thing we had back in 2016
when Alpha News Minnesota first posted a video taken at an Ilhan campaign event where they were talking about whoever it was in the community who had leaked the news of her fraudulent marriage.
They had to hunt that person down and get him out of the community.
And this was at her campaign, posted on their Facebook.
The person who actually recorded that video, his name was Guhad Hachi,
was at the time
out on bail for a triple stabbing in Ohio.
And he was out of state.
He had lived in Ohio.
He was now in Minnesota running
or co-running co-running her intimidation campaign.
That's right.
I remember that.
The same guy, he's running this co-intimidation campaign.
He's going door to door, knocking on doors, allegedly saying, We want to know that you're going to keep your mouth quiet.
If I mark down here that you gave us 25 bucks, we'll know we can trust you.
So
he's running a protection racket.
We also have them,
have talk of him
simply running a vote buying campaign where they have bags of money going out organized by Ali Isi.
He was the campaign manager, spread among eleven different building managers for
these eleven towers that mostly housed the Somali refugees in Cedar Riverside.
The money was getting spread around to each of them.
It was simply if you show up or get in this van and we drive you down and vote, we'll give you a set amount.
I've heard the amount of 50 for the primary and 125 for the general.
So, David, is anyone going to look into this?
Well,
this
was given to the FBI, I can confirm, earlier this year.
People, and again, remember, giving false information to the FBI is a felony in itself.
We had locals who were willing to give this information face-to-face to the FBI early this year regarding these four prior elections.
Now,
we did not have any concrete evidence.
All we had was several people confirming this.
Now,
again, early this year, after speaking with the FBI, someone said, you know, let's call James O'Keefe.
Get him down here, see if he can catch them in the act this year.
And as we can see, he was successful.
So we now have our foot in the door with proof of her doing it this year.
We can go back and look at 2016 and 2018.
I feel very confident now about this.
Also, just last night, O'Keefe spoke with the Hennepin County Attorney's Office.
So he said, What you have on that tape is illegal, and we are looking into it.
So it's a great start.
Let me play a little bit more of the tape.
This is
the ballot harvester,
what is it, Liban Mohammed,
where he is on social media making a video here about the stack of absentee ballots in his car that he collected for the campaign of a Democrat.
Listen.
He says, all these absentee ballots, can't you see?
They're all
my car is full of them.
Today I have 300 ballots for Jamal.
Is that
enough?
Because really, he could have 300 ballots for Jamal just because he was knocking on doors, which is called ballot harvesting, which is fine in at least in Minnesota.
I don't think it's fine, but he could just go and get the ballots from people that were
signing them of their own volition.
Well, that's not exactly correct.
is fine to collect three ballots, not 300, according to Minnesota law.
Ah.
So it is not fine.
It it is already illegal.
Of course, we've got folks like Mark Elias, that Perkins-Cooey election law attorney.
He has led the vote-by-mail suits.
There have been, I believe, three dozen lawsuits to get vote-by-mail,
ballot harvesting,
the signature law to get that relaxed, to get everything relaxed, to have votes be able to count
one, two weeks after Election Day.
That's Mark Elias.
He's the one who's been suing every state to make what you're seeing in that video legal.
Not the fact that he's purchasing votes,
but to make harvesting 300 ballots, just going door to door, like that legal.
So
it's an uphill fight across the country
in every state.
It is an absolute crisis at this point.
And it all should have been avoided.
They've been doing this since March of early this year.
You'll remember
the moment the coronavirus lockdown started to begin, guys like Mark Elias and the Democratic Party immediately, millions and millions of dollars came out of nowhere and they started these suits all over the country to implement vote by mail and to change the to relax all these other laws.
Now, vote by mail has never, ever been implemented in eight months, March until November.
The states that do have it and do a fairly decent job of it,
it took them several years of refinement and lawsuits and refinement and process refinement.
He was trying to do it in eight months.
They knew from the start this was going to be a disaster.
We now have on camera just how big of a disaster we're going to face in November.
David, thank you very much.
David Steinberg, Investigative Reporter,
covering the news that came out from Project Veritas this weekend about ballot harvesting fraud in Minnesota.
People are risking, literally risking their life to bring information out.
You're not going to see this information in the mainstream media.
It's important for you to share these things with your friends who are still undecided or are just
just normal people that maybe aren't hearing things people are not hearing the truth because they're only watching one side or the other thank you very much david appreciate it
all right i want to talk to you about rec tech
when you're in the kitchen slaving away over a hot stove all the time just to make something that your kids are probably going to complain about anyway.
And they say, Can I just have chicken nuggets instead?
Why not stand
outside when it's starting to cool now and
stand over a rek tech and cook on a rek tech?
You don't have to stand out there, but it's a good excuse to get away from the kids who are crying and screaming and fighting all the time.
You just stand outside.
You don't have to.
You can go inside.
You can go anywhere.
You can go to the store and you can still control your rectac because it has smart grill technology.
So, grilling on your time the way you want, it's the last grill you're going to ever want to buy.
I want you to look at RekTech.
I want you to go to their website and I want you to A-B compare them.
The reason why they can keep this at a competitive price with the best on the market is because there's no middleman.
You buy them directly from them.
So, you just look at the stats of the best out on the market and then compare it to a RekTech, and you will see the difference.
It's R-E-C-T-E-Q.com.
R-E-C-T-E-Q.com.
RekTech.com.
Go there now.
10-second station ID.
So all these Democrat, these Democratic senators are refusing to meet with
Amy Comey Barrett.
That is amazing.
Chuck Schumer, Richard Blumenthal, you know, all the people that you would expect, but still, they won't meet.
They're not going to even talk to her.
I'd say that it's because you meet someone and you're nice and intelligent, you might like them, and then it's harder to call them Satan.
But that improves...
I don't think Richard Blumenthal or Chuck Schumer or any of these people have a problem
saying whatever to somebody's face and then turning around and knifing him in the back.
Right, that implies that they have a soul.
Yeah.
And that's wrong to do it.
Right.
And that's why I don't know what to do.
I don't think you should retract that.
No, I just, that's why I didn't bring it up.
That was my initial incentive.
Well, maybe because they know what they're going to have to do is something horrific to another human being.
They believe it's their duty that they have to go out there and call her a gang rapist or a gang grapist or whatever it is.
And they're going to come out and do that.
And you don't want to necessarily have a personal relationship with them.
But that implies that they have a soul, that they would have feelings, that they would feel bad about assassinating someone's character, and they don't.
So,
no concern about that whatsoever.
They're terrible, terrible human beings.
They really don't care about the person in the middle, the average Democrat.
They really don't care about them.
This is done to send a message to the left that we're doing everything we can to stop this.
It's a weird,
it's kind of a weird idea, though.
Like, what is the electoral benefit here for them?
To me, it would make a lot more sense if they went out there and looked at the nominee honestly and said, you know what, we don't think she's appropriate.
She's too liberal, right?
And then you come to your audience with a look, we voted against her, and they had the votes, and that's why you need to keep us in office.
That's right.
If you just look totally rational, you could have been meeting in your little secret chambers and say, look, none of us, we hate her.
We could call her all kinds of names.
Everybody go out and be really, really kind.
Just say, we're going to take a really open-minded look at this.
That would be what a normal person would do.
An evil politician would also then be conspiring with all of their other politicians to knife her in the back.
But that's what I think people want.
Just listen to her, meet her, talk to her.
But you don't vote on her.
Treat her fairly.
That's it.
That's what I think is also going to be the problem with this election.
Americans would abide by an election that went to Biden or to Trump if we weren't being convinced that it was going to be stolen.
You know, those are for the people on the left.
They're being convinced that Donald Trump's going to steal it.
But we actually have the evidence of the Democrats trying to steal it.
This is the Glenn Beck program.
Fair fight is all really that America wants, just a fair fight.

It'll be me and Pat and Stu.
Also, I think we have Dave Rubin joining us as well, as well as Steve Dace.
Steve's with us now.
Hi, Steve.
Morning, guys.
If you don't know who Steve Dace is, he's a guy who follows me on our network.
He is really, really good,
especially when it comes to logic and
poll numbers.
He's a lot like Stu.
But he also has the experience of running campaigns or being part of campaigns in the past, so he has a different look.
We're talking about the debate tomorrow, Steve.
How would you go in and
want us to look at this going in?
How should America be looking at this going in?
Well, as someone who's been on a debate prep team for a presidential candidate,
a lot of this and has done the spin room afterwards.
You know, Glenn, a lot of this is based off expectations.
You know, we're at the point now that it's an expectations game.
And the thing that I am very concerned about, and I've been saying it on my show, on the blaze for the last month or two, is it just seems like we are artificially lowering the expectations for the opposition here, if you consider yourself in favor of Trump and wanting Biden to lose.
And I think it's a really dangerous strategy always
in just about any endeavor.
There's a reason why football coaches at their press conferences each week, po-boy and talking about how bad their team sucks, when you are artificially lowering the expectations of your opposition at this point, if Joe Biden does not look up at the sky and say, this is a big one, Alice, and breathes, it's going to be called a win.
And I think that is what I am concerned about going into tomorrow night.
So he's,
when you watch him, have you watched him enough lately?
I mean, we see all the clips.
Stu and I were talking about this earlier.
You see all the clips of him, and he, at times, just looks horrible.
But there's a lot of speeches and things that he's doing where he doesn't look like that.
Do you think he can can pull this off for two hours?
I think it's possible.
He sort of did against Bernie Sanders right before everything shut down, the final debate in the Democratic primary.
That was six months ago, or more than six months ago now.
He also was permitted because of all the shutdowns, because, frankly, I think the administration was too slow in aggressively pushing reopening.
For somebody who's older, who already clearly has metal capacity issues, the wear and tear of an election, remember Hillary's fainting spell in 2016?
The daily campaigning, the travel, the hours that these people log at any age, particularly his, and with his obvious diminished mental capacity, there'd be a lot more tread on those tires in a normal campaign.
He has been permitted to essentially choose spots to speak, which makes
the clips where he can even more damning, probably.
But he's been essentially permitted to save up for this moment.
And I think what was going to happen, Glenn, is that if they did not have a strong convention and we did not see good economic news and the polls narrowing, then I don't think we would have had any debates.
I think Biden would have said, well, you know, I'll show up when Trump shows up with his tax returns or some other cockamame excuse.
And he would have absorbed some hit, but he would have had enough of a lead to absorb it.
It's too close now.
He has to show up.
If tonight he shows, or tomorrow night he shows up and he's cognizant and alert, then I don't believe you'll have the rest of the debates.
I agree.
I agree.
What does Trump need to do?
He needs to make his case to the American people.
I think the big trap that the president needs to avoid falling into is he is at his best in the hand-to-hand combat and in the battle of personalities.
If I'm Joe Biden, I want to provoke Trump right away.
I want to create a galvanizing moment for me in the opening 15 minutes, anticipating that I may wear down over the final 30.
So I want to produce some moment where Trump looks like he's bullying me.
I get to say, come on, man, let's do some push-ups.
Everybody laughs and put people at ease.
I want to provoke Trump.
Trump, I think, needs to avoid the trap of looking like he is bullying Joe Biden.
He needs to make his case directly to the American people.
Prior to March 12th of this year, he had a very strong case for reelection.
The job numbers last month, he's almost below the unemployment rate that Obama got re-elected on in 2012.
You're looking at perhaps an over 30 percent increase in GDP here for the third quarter.
We should get those numbers right before the election, the last week of October.
So he has a case to make.
He needs to make his case unfettered around the mainstream media narrative directly to the hundred plus million people that are watching tomorrow and actually let Joe Biden rise and fall on his own as much as possible and not seem like he is pestering him or needling him or bullying him.
Why do you think he keeps asking for a drug test?
I think it's to see if he taking anything that indicates that he he has cognitive disability issues any sort of artificial means of staying alert I mean he's calling these campaign days at noon pretty much every day and they've been trying to say it's for debate prep well it's been debate prep since about Labor Day yeah
so I think it probably has something to do with that but this is again where you're the incumbent president if we're sitting here in the see i think he is in a much stronger position than the the the public polling which i i just don't buy when I actually go.
I mean, the ABC News Washington Post poll has a 21-point lead for Biden among independents.
Glenn, in the last seven elections, the biggest blowout of the last seven, Obama won independence by eight.
That's never happening.
He's winning by 21 points with independence, okay?
But the president needs to make that case.
And so I think he's in a much stronger position relying on, well, my opponent has dementia and can't do the job.
You've been the president for four years.
You need to make your affirmative case to the American people.
All right.
I want to get you and Stu into a nerd fight.
Because Stu is very concerned because of the polls.
And you seem to me like, ah, this is great.
This is going to be fine.
I don't know if you're that far apart from each other, but I want a nerd fight.
So tell Stu why you're not buying the polls.
Because
they may have the right conclusion, but my seventh grade math teacher in Grand Rapids, Michigan, Mr.
Judovix, used to tell me, I can go to a calculator and get the right equation answer.
I need you to show your work.
Their methodology, when they show their work, it's not even anemic.
It's insulting.
It's multiple simultaneous things that cannot be true.
That Donald Trump is losing 11 points of evangelicals, but will get 39% of Hispanics.
It's that he's losing independence by 20 points when no one's won him by eight in the biggest blowout in our current electoral college environment, that we're going to see a drop, a massive drop of
white working class,
or then we're going to see a massive increase of it.
In the Monmouth poll recently, 70% of voters
were going to be white non-college graduates, which Trump won pretty convincingly four years ago, but he's still going to lose.
It tells me they're not entirely sure.
There's a couple of options.
This is whole cloth a setup in order to justify calling the election illegitimate if he wins and say, well, we had all this data, he must have stolen it.
Or they're pinning the tail on the donkey here with a blindfold, trying to figure out what the turnout of the actual electorate is going to be.
It's one or the other.
And that's terrifying, honestly, if they're that, because you could tell that they were very,
the whole education difference when they were not correcting for education in 2016 was this sort of consensus mistake they made last time that they're trying to correct, but it doesn't seem like they're uniformly able to correct it in any rational way.
I mean,
this is all stuff that some of the stuff that we've that Steve mentioned, we've talked about on the air.
And I think there's been really bizarre things where if, look, if Donald Trump wins 39% of Hispanics, he's winning the election full side.
He's winning the election.
There's no way he could lose in that scenario, I don't think.
I mean, unless something I'm, you know, something I'm really missing.
And there's other polls that show him at 18 and 20% of African-American votes.
If he wins, if that's real, you know, he's going to win the election.
So, but you're right.
I've seen some of those polls as well.
So i i i i i hesitate to look at one individual but i've seen i've seen them in several so i i again like i think you got to look at these things uh as a whole and and and do the averaging sort of thing where you look at every time i talk to you i want to kill myself
every time i talk to every time i talk to you you make really good case like look these poll numbers are that is legitimately exactly what my wife put on my our last anniversary card right every time i talk to you i want to kill myself that's exactly what she said happy anniversary
so
and every time i talk to Steve, I feel like, oh, okay, this is going to go well.
Which is odd.
Normally I'm the Grim Ring worker.
Yeah, I know.
I know.
I know.
So I'd like you two to work it out because I don't think you are.
This is what he just said is it shows that the polls are, you can't trust the polls.
For whatever reason, you can't trust the polls.
And you've been telling me, you got to trust the polls.
I mean, I don't think you universally trust the polls.
I mean, you can look at them.
You know, again, I think it's always better to average polls than to take individual polls.
I think
that's a good safety tip.
And I think, you know, you look at them, generally speaking, it's been a pretty consistent lead for Biden.
That being said, I think a lot of that has to do with people who have not been in election mode.
They haven't been thinking about this like they have every other election we've ever been through.
They've been in another world thinking about other things.
No, I'm just saying
this is a positive for Trump.
I'm saying that, like, I think, but if that's your positive, the lead is misleading.
The lead is misleading, right?
Like, I think you could look at this and say he's got plenty of opportunities here, three high-profile nights at the very least, to be able to narrow this.
I do think that, you know, election held today, I'd be very, very nervous.
I would not think that Trump was going to win if the election was held today.
However, here's an interesting fact, not held today.
So it doesn't make any difference what would happen if it was held today.
So, Steve, show me how he can win.
Like, when I talked to Stu last Friday, he was like,
you know, he needs every white person ever born and then some to be able to win.
But because the numbers, the demographics are against him.
Just if he just had the same number of people vote for him as they did last time, he loses.
I mean,
isn't it a pretty Herculean task for him to pull off?
We've only had in the two-party era, guys, when we weren't at World War I or World War II, we've only had one president ever win re-election who didn't get more Electoral College votes and more popular votes than he did to get elected, and that was Barack Obama in 2012.
So historically, presidents win re-election all time in America, 70% of the time.
And then since we went to a two-party system post-Civil War,
only one time, non-World War I or World War II, did a president win re-election without having to expand his base.
So that's really not unique.
I actually think the president in the Electoral College is in a stronger position now than he was at this point four years ago, heading into the debates.
I think really there's only 69 contested, nice, 69 contested Electoral College votes that are up between now and November the 3rd.
That's it.
I think everything else is pretty much spoken for, and those are all in states that Trump won in 2016.
I think now it just comes down to can he defend that territory.
And then it comes down to a place like in Nevada, you know, where the casinos have been shut down all year.
They've mildly reopened.
There's been thousands of layoffs there.
A lot of union employees have left that state.
Remember, Trump only lost that state by 20,000 votes in twenty sixteen.
So those are some of the local anecdotal notes that are on the ground.
I think what he needs is on Friday, this jobs report, no president has ever been reelected if the jobs report went was the last one before his election was higher than it was the month before.
They've all lost.
So he needs that unemployment number to continue to stay about where it was in September or come down.
But that GDP report at the end of October, I think that could be an October surprise.
But I think on Tuesday night, he really needs to make a strong presidential case to the American people and let Joe Biden largely rise and fall on his own.
The 69 electoral votes, where are they?
Michigan, Pennsylvania, Arizona,
Wisconsin, Minnesota.
Those are most of the 69 votes.
See, I think Florida is trending strongly for Trump.
I think North Carolina has already had kind of the Democrats kind of had their moment.
Recent polling has trended in his direction, and I think the demographics in that state trend in his direction.
He overperformed his polling there.
So I'm counting that as a lean Republican.
I don't believe Georgia is a massive battleground state.
I have that as a lean Republican.
And I think Texas is a lean Republican now as well.
So I think it's those states primarily are making up the 69 up for grabs electoral college votes.
And those Rust Belt states, I think if the election were today, I'd have no idea what happened because I think the amount of cheating there is going to be extraordinary.
I agree.
I agree.
And the cheating, you wouldn't think that the cheating really matters
in states like California, but they're going to make a case that he didn't win the popular vote.
Yep.
And that will change things.
All right, Steve, we'll see you tomorrow.
Thank you so much.
Steve will be joining us on the radio program tomorrow.
