Donald Trump has been elected President of the United States of America. On this episode of the CharlieKirkShow, host Brett Schafer and co-host Andrew Yang Yang celebrate the historic victory of Donald Trump in the presidential election and reflect on the incredible work of the Turning Point USA youth organization, which helped elect the President-Elect Donald Trump on Tuesday, November 8, 2020. They also discuss the impact of turning out the vote on the ground game in Wisconsin and the impact it had on the outcome of the election and how important it was to have a candidate like Charlie Kirk on the campaign trail and on college campuses across the country. They also talk about the importance of having a candidate who is truly dedicated to our country and who is willing to put in the work to make a difference in order to elect a President. Thank you to everyone who helped elect Donald Trump, and thank you to all the activists who worked so hard to get him on the ballot and helped get him elected. It's been an honor and a privilege to have Charlie on the show.

00:01:28.000Based on the emails we received yesterday and the ground game we have in Wisconsin, I can say you guys made a difference in winning Wisconsin.
00:01:35.000And with that, getting Donald Trump declared the victor on election night, which was massive, right?
00:01:41.000Massive so that they couldn't continue their hocus pocus, right?
00:04:35.000You know, you heard people complain about hurting in the polls.
00:04:37.000What if all the polls are fake, but this time they're overestimating Trump?
00:04:41.000I saw pretty smart people say, what if actually the numbers show that Harris is going to win in a landslide, but they're just too scared to say it because they've been burned before?
00:04:49.000Because they predicted a landslide in 2016?
00:05:02.000I said, have you guys ever been in a plane where you're in the clouds and you can't see the ground and you're a passenger and it kind of freaks you out and you know you're descending?
00:11:16.000Riley Lenting, who is our rep in Michigan, right outside of Wayne County, so we're just talking about that, she's right in that Detroit metropolitan area, won against her Democratic opponent last night by 2,000 votes, a little less than 2,000 votes, and I think it was like a D plus 6 district.
00:13:52.000Wait, so every place that we did approve me wrong and that we brought in thousands of young people, we actually end up overperforming the Democrat candidate?
00:15:43.000Okay, so there was a certain NBC reporter that said we didn't have a ground game, so I had to call a certain NBC reporter and debate that fact with him.
00:16:16.000When he comes to ground game, I'll still concede that the Democrats have more canvassers across the board, and they have unions, but they didn't have the union as much this time, which is a key insight.
00:16:26.000But secondly, if they don't like what you're selling, you can knock on all the doors you want.
00:16:30.000I'm thinking of those text messages from your friend that was knocking on public housing doors, and they're like, oh, we're voting for Trump.
00:16:36.000Or even more telling, hearing 10-year-olds say, I think my parents like Trump.
00:20:25.000If your approach to everyday aches and pains is to mask them, you know, feel better for a few hours only to have the pain return and then repeat the cycle all over again.

00:21:22.000Okay, do we have the morning Joe, Ryan?
00:24:36.000I personally worked the polls yesterday, and I have to say I was so shocked by the amount of students from Auburn University driving home to vote yesterday.
00:24:43.000It was absolutely incredible to witness that and the number of first-time voters.
00:24:47.000Please say a big thank you to Charlie and the team.
00:25:01.000Stacked on top of what happened on college campuses this fall?
00:25:06.000Stacked on top of what's been happening on college campuses over the past four or five years?
00:25:12.000I have said this on the air, and every time I've said it, people say, oh, you're just saying that because you're a white conservative.
00:25:19.000No, I'm just saying it because every Democrat that we have ever sat down with dinner with over the past five years who have kids that go to colleges...
00:25:28.000Say their kids are afraid to speak in class because they'll be cancelled.
00:25:46.000You know, my daughter at University of Virginia, she's afraid to raise her hand in class because if she says something that's politically incorrect, she'll immediately be canceled.
00:26:19.000Because that right there, that's verboten on MSNBC. You don't say those things unless you've been thinking them for a long time and keeping them in.
00:26:27.000I mean, listen, on the one hand, I have a ton of respect for what he did, but I'm also, I hate that they all knew this.
00:27:07.000But I think you'll agree this reason trumps them all during November.

00:29:28.000It's quite something to play at the highest level of one of the most competitive You guys are justifiably proud of that.
00:29:38.000And as I said, I know I'm using a jokey tone, but what you did yesterday to use your megaphone was really smart because getting young men to do anything but The thing they like to do the most, which I won't say, is hard to do.
00:30:03.000And yes, now that we can get the inside baseball, is that we knew what we were doing the whole time.
00:30:09.000The media, by the way, they carried the water for us.
00:30:11.000I said, how do I get them to write a bunch of articles that women are outvoting men, even though we're not that worried about it, but we want to spike male turnout and then trigger a right-wing influencer chatter to then be able to get an extra one or two points where we need it.
00:31:30.000Well, there's no way to know, because people rely on the exit poll, and I know from having used to work on the exit poll, and it's only gotten cheaper since then.
00:31:38.000But the proof's in the pudding, right?
00:31:39.000Donald Trump won the popular vote overwhelmingly.
00:31:42.000And on a qualitative side, on my platform, on Two Way, in the last couple days, we've had young women...
00:31:49.000Who are pro-choice, who voted for Donald Trump, and their explanations of why they didn't vote for the pro-choice candidate helps explain, to the extent there was an under-voting of young women, helps explain it.
00:32:03.000You can have been pro-choice and not voted for Kamala Harris or not voted at all because it was not The energizing issue that the left and the press have said it was for a long time.
00:32:14.000There was evidence to think that it would be.
00:32:17.000But again, every day folks come on our platform and explain why it wasn't for them.
00:32:22.000So I'm sure there's a lot of finger pointing going around right now.
00:32:26.000Is there any evidence, any evidence at all that Biden was, let's say, not as helpful as he could have been?
00:34:17.000But the fundamental thing is the party has moved so far to the left on issues and is not able to appeal to the groups that Donald Trump did very well with for a Republican.
00:34:29.000And so I have no doubt that you're going to hear more stories both about what's happened in the past and what happens going forward between, if not Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, at least between their camps.
00:34:39.000But to me, the more the Democratic Party focuses on that, the less likely they are to figure out how to solve this.
00:34:44.000Because what happened to them yesterday was a repudiation, not so much of Kamala Harris and Joe Biden, although it was that too, but of the party's complete failure to understand that Donald Trump was eating their lunch in the center of the electorate.
00:34:58.000And so, Mark, let me now just take a little detour here.
00:35:02.000One thing that was a good, I guess, unintentional op on their side was the Seltzer poll.
00:35:07.000We were feeling great until someone that I've been watching for a while came out with this poll and said, Kamala up three in Iowa.
00:35:14.000You asked great questions on two-way and you gave her a fair chance to go through it and all the cross tabs.
00:36:09.000So I think the fault is not in Ann, who had a faulty poll, and she's done an interview with The Register that published the poll in Des Moines, and people can listen to her explanation about it.
00:36:35.000And one poll that's an outlier, people should look at as either an outlier or on the cutting edge.
00:36:42.000Ann has done polls in the past that were outliers that turned out to be on the cutting edge and showed where the thing had been heading and where it would be on Election Day.
00:37:00.000So if there's a bad poll, if Michael Jordan scores six points in a game, we don't say, well, who says Michael Jordan is a good basketball player?
00:37:47.000And not treat it like some sabotage event or some inexplicable failure.
00:37:52.000Polls can be wrong with the best pollsters, with the best intentions.
00:37:56.000So Mark, help me understand, because you talked to Sorsa on both sides, what's the future of the Democrat Party short and long term here?
00:38:02.000I mean, I'm sure that tonight's Kamala's speech will tell us a lot, but tell me, help me understand that.
00:38:09.000I actually don't think her speech will say much because I don't think people are going to look to her for leadership.
00:38:15.000Their problem is that, as I said, the only way to begin to solve a problem is to agree on what the problem is and then to work together and say, what are the best solutions to this problem?
00:38:26.000Bernie will say and AOC will say the party wasn't left enough and populist enough on economics.
00:38:32.000And others will say, we're crazy left-wing on all this trans stuff and parents in schools and Israel.
00:38:41.000We've got to move to the center on that stuff.
00:38:43.000Or we need more relatable candidates, whatever it is.
00:38:50.000And when you see a party suffer the crisis that they suffered last night, and don't minimize it, not just Trump winning the Electoral College big, winning the popular vote big, but his encroachment on what have been traditionally Democratic constituencies.
00:39:02.000You need a once-in-a-generation leader to step forward and do that.
00:39:06.000And people say, well, you know, you never know when one's going to come up.
00:39:09.000Bill Clinton and Barack Obama were tagged as once-in-a-generation leaders from the time they were in college, okay?
00:39:18.000And I think with all due respect to the people who were talked about as potential 2024 candidates or 28 candidates, I don't think any of them are once in a generational leaders.
00:39:34.000So their future is partly a crisis of issues and the fact that the party is controlled by the extreme left.
00:39:41.000It's also a crisis of leadership because I don't see a once-in-a-generational leader.
00:39:44.000And it's also a crisis of a disagreement about what is the problem and therefore what is the solution.
00:39:49.000That doesn't mean they're consigned to 50 years of doom.
00:39:52.000It just means standing here today You can't identify, here's the consensus of the problem, here are the leaders who are going to execute a solution that we agree on.
00:40:01.000None of that's in place, and that means they've got a problem, and they're running against the person who I continue to say is the second best presidential candidate or presidential political operator of our times after Bill Clinton.
00:40:34.000You're part of a community that's bipartisan.
00:40:36.000People who are very conservative, people who are very liberal, and interact with people who are journalists and scholars and activists and politicians.
00:41:30.000While we're pulling that up, the transition that was just there was about all this constant conversation.
00:41:36.000And I want people to understand the amount of buckling that normally people do under the pressure of the Beltway losers and the hacks that are there that are so threatened by actual work.
00:41:55.000Which is, they put so much pressure on us, not to make sure that we succeeded, but to try to get us out and out of the way, because they knew that deep down, I think, that we had the capability of making sure that we could deliver some things here and prove some things.
00:42:13.000And now it's out for everybody to see.
00:42:16.000And that's really an important thing for the entire Republican movement, the entire Republican apparatus, to open their eyes open to, is that we have an opportunity in front of us to win a lot of stuff moving forward.
00:42:31.000But it requires real diligence, real perseverance, real construction, real mechanics.
00:42:38.000And yeah, it's offensive that people even...
00:42:43.000Second guess some of it without introspection.
00:42:45.000There's going to be a lot of record setting going on.
00:43:37.000They're too busy cashing consultant checks.
00:43:38.000The consultant class needs to be purged, and it is worse than you could imagine.
00:43:43.000Again, we dealt with, no joke, 20 time-consuming, potentially jeopardizing to our status as an organization media articles that if we don't spend time with the reporters, it can impact donors, it can impact Oh, hey, Tyler Montag.
00:44:24.000Anyway, just to reiterate though, these people spent hours backgrounding reporters on fake BS that we then had to deal with to try to destabilize us and to go after us.
