00:00:46.000You might have heard that the Democrats are going to pull off a surprise, an upset win, and they're already doing a victory lap or so it seems.
00:00:54.000We have things going on all over the world.
00:00:56.000We have things going on in Vladimir Putin.
00:00:58.000If you saw his interview over the weekend with Megyn Kelly, he made some choice suggestions, some choice accusations, which We'll talk about the media coverage of that.
00:01:09.000And of course, President Trump had a rally in Pennsylvania, which I think was a very good evening, a very good time for people that have stayed on the Trump train, for people that have stayed on with President Trump.
00:01:21.000We're going to break down what happened there, what was said, why it's important, what that means for the rest of the presidency, what that means for the election.
00:01:46.000I wasn't planning on doing this, but I think I'll just announce it now.
00:01:50.000This month, either next week or the week after, we will be coming out with two new podcasts.
00:01:56.000They've been in development for a little while now.
00:01:59.000And I'm putting the finishing touches.
00:02:01.000We're putting together graphics, we're putting together theme songs and content and figuring out what it's going to look like.
00:02:08.000But we have two new podcasts coming out for you.
00:02:12.000Later this month, we have one that will be specifically focused on foreign affairs, and we have one podcast that will be focused on the 2018 elections.
00:02:23.000The titles that are pending, the pending titles for both, will be America First World Report, and that will be an hour long weekly podcast dedicated to world affairs, foreign affairs, international relations.
00:02:36.000And the second will be just 2018 Election HQ, America First 2018 Election HQ.
00:02:44.000They'll both be weekly, and you can both get those for just five bucks with America First Premium.
00:02:50.000So, good news for all of our premium members on our maker support page, which the link is in the description.
00:02:57.000For only five bucks a month, you'll not only be getting what you already get, which is a new role in the Discord, or rather, a higher role in the Discord.
00:03:07.000You get priority on the call in shows.
00:03:09.000You get the audio only format of the show.
00:03:10.000And now, starting either next week or the week after, you will get.
00:03:15.000An additional two hours of content every week, two new shows, specialized, focused, and pre recorded, too.
00:03:21.000So they'll be a lot cleaner, they'll be edited, and it'll be very nice.
00:03:24.000So I'm excited to announce that, like I said, either next week or the week after, depending on some other actors that are in play that are wasting my time with litigation and other things.
00:03:33.000Pending some other things that need to be resolved, we'll see those coming out either next week or the week after.
00:03:39.000But by the end of the month, so be sure, if you're not already on there, join up.
00:03:44.000It's a big little springtime treat, a little.
00:03:46.000Springtime Easter surprise for our premium members.
00:03:49.000You're going to be getting a lot more content.
00:03:50.000We're really expanding the operation here.
00:03:59.000We will be broadcasting the show, America First, not just on YouTube, but starting next week, we'll be broadcasting the show every weeknight, 7 8, on Facebook Live, Twitch, and Periscope, all at the same time.
00:04:17.000Very exciting stuff coming in the next couple of weeks.
00:04:19.000But now that that housekeeping stuff is taken care of, the exciting news, the big news is out of the way for the show, and we are excited about it.
00:04:28.000Our supporters are glad to see the Nick Fuentes, the America First.
00:04:33.000Juggernaut thriving, but we got to get into the news.
00:04:36.000The first thing I want to talk about is this was, I think, the most ridiculous story that I've seen all year.
00:04:44.000And we've seen a lot of ridiculous stories this year, but this is just the most over the top.
00:04:48.000We thought we had jumped the shark on Friday with the Polish Holocaust law.
00:04:53.000We thought we had jumped the shark with the globalist stuff, with the anti Semitic incidents where it was what?
00:04:59.000One Israeli was responsible for 9% of all anti Semitic incidents.
00:05:04.000Hate crimes or whatever in the past year.
00:05:06.000Every time I think we've jumped the shark, every time I think we've gotten to paranoia levels, persecutory delusions that shouldn't even be possible, we're always surprised.
00:05:17.000And so if you were watching the interview with Vladimir Putin, Russian President Vladimir Putin, and Megyn Kelly over the weekend, you might have noticed there was one line in particular that could have stood out to you.
00:05:31.000I didn't even know it was going to be on, but I happened to be watching TV and it came on.
00:05:37.000And it was the second round of interviews.
00:05:39.000Megyn Kelly interviewed Vladimir Putin last year.
00:05:41.000And so she sat down with him today to grill him again about the new developments in the Russian collusion scandal.
00:05:47.000And Vladimir Putin said one thing which was very interesting, which, if you're paying very close attention, might have caught your ear, might have caught your eye.
00:05:54.000You might have said, hmm, I don't know.
00:05:57.000And I'll pull it up for you what he said.
00:06:00.000He said, I couldn't care less because they, meaning the three companies and the 13 hackers that were caught colluding or interfering in the election, He said, I couldn't care less because they do not represent the government.
00:06:13.000These are the hackers that were caught pretty recently.
00:07:27.000We don't know that they're ethnic Russians.
00:07:29.000We don't know that they're Russian citizens.
00:07:31.000We don't know that they have any kind of coordination with the government or they don't.
00:07:35.000But you should have seen what was said in the media.
00:07:37.000Here's where it becomes a story how the media then plays it.
00:07:40.000And so often, Since the 2016 election, we see that the media is just as much of a story, if not more so, than the actual news itself because of how distorted, how much they lie, how much they take what is said or what happens.
00:07:55.000And it goes into the media machine and it gets all toyed around with, and they play with the language and they move it around, and then it comes out as something totally different.
00:10:07.000You can be a Russian citizen, but not be an ethnic Russian.
00:10:10.000And the reason they have this distinction is because Russia historically is a multi ethnic, multi religious, multi racial empire.
00:10:19.000You go back hundreds of years, this is currently the biggest country in the world, but at a time it was growing at a rate that was inconceivable.
00:10:27.000At one time it spanned from Poland all the way to Alaska.
00:10:31.000I mean, this is how enormous the Russian Empire was.
00:10:34.000And you imagine how many diverse peoples, cultures, religions are encompassed within this large country.
00:10:39.000You had people that were incorporated everywhere from Finland in Scandinavia, or Finland technically isn't Scandinavia, so up in the Baltics, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, down to Romania, down to Moldova.
00:10:53.000You have the Ukrainians, they call them the White Russians.
00:11:09.000So, the reason they have a different word for it is because you have Russians, ethnic Russians, meaning Slavic people that date back to Kiev and Rus', that date back to the Grand Duchy of Moscow seven or eight hundred years ago, and people with Russian citizenship, people who are citizens of the Russian Federation.
00:11:29.000So, he said very clearly, I couldn't care less because these hackers, whoever it was, they don't represent the government.
00:12:03.000Putin cites Jews and now Democrats implore Trump to extradite.
00:12:07.000And then here's got to be this is the best one, in my opinion, because this is the most, you know, they call it, what do they call it, begging the question?
00:12:17.000Or, you know, the Shakespeare quote, the lady does protest too much.
00:12:20.000Here's a really fantastic quote that we get from a member of the Knesset.
00:13:13.000Maybe they slaughtered the Jews in Poland.
00:13:15.000It's like, how do you, to any normal person who sees cause and effect, who heard what Putin said, how do you get from what he said to these radical things?
00:14:26.000I mean, so he's saying if you're going to attribute responsibility to Russia, For interference in the election because of these 13 people and these three companies.
00:14:37.000Do you exactly know who these people are?
00:14:49.000And then in the Knesset, the most wild extrapolation, which you could imagine, the most wild begging the question of here's a simple question.
00:14:58.000So Putin's, it's the equivalent of that Jordan Peterson interview where he says, you know, there are two genders.
00:15:04.000And she goes, so you're basically saying we should kill all trans people?
00:15:07.000Putin says, we don't really know what Russians were involved.
00:15:10.000Oh, so you're saying Jews control the world and they're responsible for the Holocaust and it didn't happen?
00:15:19.000So these, and the reason I bring it up, the reason why this is important, the reason why we're talking about this, people would say, Nick, you're bringing this up because you're anti Semitic.
00:15:39.000It's got, oh, it's got nothing to do with that.
00:15:42.000When we look at these patterns, it has nothing to do with that.
00:15:44.000The reason it's important, the reason it's consequential, is because this illustrates plain as day, black as night, in as clear terms as you can imagine, that you cannot trust the media.
00:16:22.000And when you see something like this, where anybody with ears could hear what Putin was saying, anybody with a brain could understand what he was getting at.
00:16:31.000But if you didn't watch the interview and you didn't hear exactly what was said, and maybe you don't click on the article, the headlines would give you a totally distorted picture of the world, a totally distorted picture of Vladimir Putin.
00:16:41.000Because think about the characterization here.
00:16:51.000You go from a statesman saying, You can't blame my country for this because they're not connected to the government, and maybe they're not even kin of Russians, to a characterization that Vladimir Putin is somebody who is so ignorant, or maybe somebody who's so intelligent, but somebody who's such a nasty person that they would blame a global Jewish cabal for putting Donald Trump in office, which maybe if there is one, they'd be contributing to the opposite.
00:17:21.000The characterization is so starkly different that anybody who is just looking at the headlines, anybody who gives the press the benefit of the doubt, anybody who looks at the people on NBC and they look at the people on BBC and they have degrees, they go to school for years and years, they pay hundreds of thousands of dollars, they spend so much time getting a degree, and they go to the most prestigious schools.
00:17:45.000They go to Harvard, they go to Princeton, they go to Yale, they go through journalism school, they go through a rigorous journalism school.
00:18:14.000And most people would say that what they are hearing from television, what they're hearing from the media and the news should be given the benefit of the doubt.
00:18:29.000When you really look at what's happening on the ground, and now more than ever, we have the tools, we have the power to see what's happening in real time, whether it's on the ground in a war, whether it's a quote said by a leader, whether it's an interview, whether it's a campaign event, we can see what's happening.
00:18:47.000We can get direct quotes, we can get live video, we can get live audio, and we can contrast it with what the media is saying.
00:18:53.000And every time you look at what's happening and what the media is saying, there's a disconnect.
00:19:09.000It's all the same mischaracterization.
00:19:11.000Maybe if one of them mischaracterized it, maybe if they were all different characterizations, maybe BBC said, well, Putin is exactly right.
00:19:19.000And one website said, well, he didn't actually say this.
00:19:21.000And one website said he blamed the Jews.
00:19:23.000And it would be one thing if it was spotty, and you could say, well, one is less reputable than the other, but you could generally trust the press.
00:19:32.000They're all mischaracterizing it the same thing.
00:19:35.000And it's not on accident, it's very deliberate.
00:19:37.000And it's very deliberate to serve a very particular agenda.
00:19:39.000And once you understand, once you see it for yourself, and when it's laid out in front of you like I'm laying it out now, you've broken the conditioning.
00:19:49.000You've pulled the wool up over your eyes, you've pulled the sheet up over your eyes, and now you can see what's actually going on, which is that yes, the media can lie, the media does lie.
00:19:59.000They have a motivation to lie, they're willing to lie, and you see it right here.
00:20:04.000Nobody with a journalism degree, nobody with an IQ high enough, I don't even.
00:20:09.000No, if you have to have an IQ really that high to get into Harvard, all you have to do is live in a certain zip code and have a certain color skin.
00:20:15.000But you're high IQ enough, a high enough verbal IQ that you could be on television, and yet you're going to misrepresent like this.
00:20:31.000We had to cover that because it's just so outrageous.
00:20:34.000I don't know how they can get away with this.
00:20:35.000They can't get away with this for much longer.
00:20:37.000That's why the media's credibility is at an all time low.
00:20:41.000Because every time that something like this happens, and it happens so frequently now, it happens every day, every week.
00:20:46.000Every time that happens, another 10,000 people turn off their television, they cut their cable cord, they stop their subscription to the newspaper, they stop caring.
00:20:55.000Every day, every incident that this happens, it's another 10,000 people, it's another 50,000 people, another 100,000 people.
00:21:12.000Delegitimize the media, or rather, the more the media is delegitimized in the eyes of the people by purely the facts, I think the better a position that we'll be in.
00:21:22.000The better people will be able to interpret the world for themselves, the more we can get an honest visualization, an honest image and vision of the world as it exists, not through a filter that the media, the controlled, lying, excuse me, press wants us to see it.
00:22:05.000We don't have to fall in love with him.
00:22:07.000We don't have to be his best good friend or even say he's a good guy.
00:22:09.000But, I mean, geez, at least tell it like it is.
00:22:14.000And all these people talking about Russia, it's ironic because you know who the biggest threat is?
00:22:19.000To, you know, if there were to be any kind of Russian infiltration, if there were to be any kind of conflict with Russia, the biggest threat to us responding to that accordingly is the paranoid people.
00:22:32.000If you hear all day long that everything under the sun is Russians, you know, oh, I went bald, it's the Russians.
00:22:38.000Oh, I spilled my coffee, it's the Russians.
00:22:41.000I lost the election that I wanted to win, it's the Russians.
00:22:44.000When you do that and you make it out that Putin is the boogeyman, he's the scapegoat for everything, you delegitimize the Valid concerns that people have about countries like Russia or Iran or Syria, which they are.
00:22:59.000And the last thing I will say about it, it's very funny that in the same breath, here's the grand irony of it all to give you a little something else to think about.
00:23:14.000We're really in a danger zone here with the length.
00:23:18.000But if we're really going to get a little bit out there, if we're going to get a little bit fun and interesting here for a moment, if we can.
00:23:25.000What's interesting about these comments, think about what, if we break it down to the fundamental level, what are the Democrats saying?
00:23:36.000They're saying there's conspiracy, there's coordination, there's intentionality, there's Russia, this global cabal, this global international influence in a coordinated way, in an organized fashion, is manipulating elections, manipulating markets.
00:23:56.000The media is telling you, or they're telling Democrats, and a lot of people on the far left, maybe 25% of the population believes this stuff.
00:24:04.000They believe that Trump is a puppet of a foreign government.
00:24:07.000Trump is a puppet of a foreign people.
00:24:09.000The media is a puppet of a foreign people.
00:24:11.000InfoWars, the alt right, the alt right, Mike Cernovich, you name it.
00:24:16.000They're all puppets of a foreign government.
00:24:17.000Fox News, puppets of a foreign government.
00:24:19.000We have a media controlled by a foreign influence.
00:24:22.000A government controlled by a foreign influence.
00:24:24.000A State Department controlled by a foreign influence.
00:24:27.000And they'll tell you all day long with a straight face, totally serious.
00:24:38.000Nobody, I don't think any liberals would have a problem with this characterization that Russia is organized, Russia is coordinated, and they are controlling things that we don't know about and whatever.
00:24:50.000And yet at the same time, what are they deflecting right now?
00:24:55.000They're saying Vladimir Putin thinks Jews control the world, and Vladimir Putin is controlling the world.
00:25:03.000So they want you to believe that if you notice any patterns about, oh, I don't know, other foreign influences in our State Department, if you look at how our The State Department has given Israel $3.8 billion every year for 10 years.
00:25:17.000For the next 10 years, we gave them three and a half.
00:25:20.000For the last 10 years, we've given them a quarter of a trillion dollars since the inception of the State of Israel.
00:25:26.000We've gone to war for them on more than several occasions.
00:25:30.000We have people that spy on us in our country.
00:26:41.000I think Israel is our closest ally, a special friend, and we can forgive them for the bad things that they do because they're.
00:26:51.000The only democracy, the shining candle of freedom in the Middle East.
00:26:57.000So, but we're not going to talk about that anymore.
00:26:59.000So, that's just a little food for thought, just a little something there.
00:27:02.000But the big thing I want to talk about, we may get to the Trump rally towards the end.
00:27:06.000We might not, because I really want to talk about the Pennsylvania election tomorrow, the special election for the 18th congressional district in Pennsylvania tomorrow.
00:27:15.000I think we're going to try and do live coverage of that tomorrow.
00:27:18.000We'll try our best to get that set up.
00:27:20.000So, if you want to see the results coming in, we'll be doing some live.
00:27:23.000Coverage of the election results on YouTube tomorrow.
00:27:26.000We'll maybe get some people on there to discuss.
00:27:28.000But we have a big election coming tomorrow, and I haven't really heard so much about it.
00:27:32.000Maybe it's because I only read like antiwar.com and like 4chan, but I haven't been hearing so much about this Pennsylvania special election, but it is very important.
00:27:42.000It's tomorrow, it's in the 18th district of Pennsylvania, which the 18th district is right on the border of West Virginia.
00:27:48.000It's in the suburbs, the suburbs of Pittsburgh are there.
00:27:51.000And so to understand the geography of the congressional district, to understand the strategic location here, this is Trump country.
00:27:59.000This is the kind of district that Trump came into office on.
00:28:03.000These are the kinds of people that Trump appeals to with trade, with foreign policy, these stark departures from Republican orthodoxy.
00:28:10.000These are the people that appeals to these working class people, these people in the Rust Belt, in the Midwest, these people in West Virginia, in Pennsylvania, in Ohio, Wisconsin, Michigan.
00:28:20.000These were the swing states that propelled Trump into office, that gave him majorities in both chambers of Congress.
00:28:26.000And so that's why this is so important.
00:28:29.000This is a district which in 2014 and 2016, Democrats didn't even bother to run a candidate.
00:28:35.000Because the Republican who was in office, who retired in October of 2017, stepped down because of a sex scandal.
00:29:02.000And according to 538, this district, Pennsylvania, 18, CD 18 in Pennsylvania is 20%, breaks 20% more towards Republicans than the rest of the country, leans 20%, a full fifth more to the right than the rest of the country.
00:29:17.000And so this is a very strategic district.
00:29:19.000However, it's looking like the race is going to be very close.
00:29:22.000Now, it's really tough to say because you look at polling for congressional races, House races in particular, and it's just simply not reliable.
00:29:31.000You can imagine how difficult it is to gauge things like voter turnout, to gauge things like local opinion.
00:29:36.000It's very, very difficult because it's a smaller population.
00:30:08.000But if we look at just the polling alone and not any of the signs on the ground, not anything we know about the district, It's looking like it's going to be neck and neck.
00:30:15.000The average of the four most recent polls has the Democrat, Connor Lamb, at 47%, and the Republican, Rick Sacone, at 45%.
00:30:30.000That's a race that we should be winning.
00:30:32.000Very similar in many ways to the Alabama special Senate election, except that was a Senate election.
00:30:37.000This is a House race, but very important.
00:30:40.000And you understand if these polls are true, if the Democrat is pulling away and the polls are suggesting that he is, the Monmouth poll, which was the most recent poll, Had him up by six points, the Democrat.
00:30:51.000This is one of 538's gold standard polls.
00:30:54.000And you know, 538 wasn't right about the 2016 election, but they are good at aggregating data that we have.
00:31:00.000The data could be wrong, but the aggregation, I think, is sound.
00:31:05.000So if we go into tomorrow and Democrats pull off a win here, where you understand we've had a Republican running uncontested for four years, where Republican has won by a margin of 15% or more for eight consecutive terms, where both Republican.
00:31:19.000Mitt Romney and Donald Trump won by 20%, where this district goes 20% to the right of the country.
00:31:25.000If we lose here, we're in big trouble.
00:31:27.000Because it's not just about this one district.
00:31:29.000This one district will be up for an election in November in the general election.
00:31:33.000This is a special election to fill a vacancy that came about in October.
00:31:38.000So this is a special election, not a primary, a special election, and it'll be up for grabs again in November, so just eight months later, and probably go Republican either way.
00:31:48.000But why it's important is because if a Democrat pulls off a win here in this special election, what does that say to the Republicans?
00:31:54.000What does that say about Donald Trump?
00:31:57.000That broke 20% for Trump, that is, and we've been over this already, that's so Republican, and now they're going to go for a Democrat, meaning that Democrats have closed a 20% gap to contest or even win this seat.
00:32:10.000That's going to spell big trouble for the Republicans.
00:32:12.000We already saw this in Texas early voting and in the primary last week.
00:32:17.000And we went over how we can put that into context, but why we should still be cautious.
00:32:20.000And we did the same with the special Senate election in Alabama, the same with the state elections in Virginia.
00:32:27.000But here we have something that is a real litmus test, because here you have two candidates.
00:32:34.000Rick Sacone is not a great fundraiser, and he's not a great campaigner, but that said, there's no sex scandal like there was with Doug Jones.
00:32:41.000He's not an anti Trump guy like you had with the Virginia governor that we got killed in earlier in the fall.
00:32:48.000So it is a pretty good control, like some of the earlier special elections that we saw in 2017, like we saw in Georgia, like we saw in Montana, like we saw in Utah, South Carolina.
00:32:57.000This is a much better control because here you have two normal candidates.
00:33:02.000And one of them is young and one of them is Marine, and the other one is, you know, rock rip conservative and in the Air Force.
00:33:09.000So, pretty good, I think, a pretty good controlled experiment.
00:33:12.000And so, tomorrow, if the polls turn out to be true, the Democrats win, it's going to spell disaster for us.
00:33:16.000But I think if we look at other elections, other special elections this year that have similar margins, I think we can be a little bit assured.
00:33:26.000I think we can take a little bit of assurance away from the polls that we might not do as bad as we think.
00:33:31.000Because you look at, for example, Kansas, April 11th, there was a special election.
00:33:37.000Kansas, this district broke 29% for Republicans on average.
00:33:40.000Republicans won by 6% in the election.
00:33:43.000Montana, on May 25th, they had a special election.
00:33:46.000This district broke 21% for Republicans, and they won by a margin of 6%.
00:33:52.000June 20th, South Carolina, they broke 19% for Republicans, won by 3%.
00:33:56.000In Utah, they broke 35%, they went by 32%.
00:34:02.000Alabama is the only state with a comparable percentage of Republican skew, a comparable percentage of Republican skew.
00:34:10.000People that lean Republican, comparable to the rest of the country, that went Democrat, which they had a 29% Republican skew and they went 2% for the Democrats.
00:34:20.000Whereas all the others went 6% for Republicans, 6%, 3%, 32%.
00:34:25.000Alabama was the only one that broke for Republicans at more than 20% that they lost to a Democrat.
00:34:31.000So I think if we look at the special elections this year and not look at Alabama, which was an extraordinary circumstance, where you had a sex scandal for four weeks, a child sex scandal, the media was concentrating on it, you had historic black turnout, which It was so exceptional, people thought it was cheating, rightly so.
00:34:49.000I mean, they got 95% of the turnout in a special Senate election in the middle of winter that they got in a presidential election when Hillary Clinton was running.
00:35:00.000They got, you know, the same amount of votes in a presidential election.
00:35:03.000Republican, the turnout was down 600,000.
00:35:05.000So, I mean, that was a really exceptional case.
00:35:07.000Virginia, you had somebody that was explicitly anti Trump, didn't jump on until later in.
00:35:20.000I think it's too unpredictable to make a sound prediction.
00:35:23.000My instinct is to say the Republican will win, but it's just too unpredictable given the polling, given the precedent in the other special elections, given the fact that you look at the candidates.
00:35:34.000And this is also somewhat different from the others, maybe not a perfect example because the Democrat in this case, Connor Lamb, he's a blue dog Democrat.
00:35:43.000If they still exist, Connor Lamb is it.
00:35:45.000He's somebody who said he's personally against abortion because he's a Catholic.
00:35:49.000He's somebody who is pro gun, he opposes new regulations on guns.
00:35:53.000He explicitly denounced And publicly denounced Nancy Pelosi.
00:35:57.000He said he would vote with Donald Trump.
00:35:59.000So, this is a person, he said he would vote against like a 20 week abortion ban or something like that, a pro abortion policy.
00:36:06.000So, here's somebody who is appealing to white people, appealing to the working class, is resoundingly against the Democratic establishment, against the progressive, far left sect of the party that occupies the party leadership.
00:36:22.000So, I think he is a little bit of an anomaly.
00:36:42.000But what it would tell us is that if voters believe him, and maybe they do, that's why they would vote for him, Democrats would have to be running candidates that are appealing to white people, appealing to the working class.
00:36:54.000They're against the Democratic Party, they're social conservatives.
00:36:57.000They're pro-gun and anti-abortion if they're even going to stand a chance in Trump country.
00:37:02.000That's what it would tell us about the Democrats.
00:37:04.000Whether or not they follow through on those things is kind of beside the point.
00:37:07.000I mean, it is important, but you understand why that's not really relevant to, to why this is significant for the Democratic Party platform.
00:37:15.000When they're up for highly contested elections in the Senate, in the House, in districts, in states where Trump won in 2016, where there's a Republican governor, where there's a Republican legislature, for example, in Missouri, Or in Montana, or in some of these other states, in Florida, in other swing states in 2018.
00:37:36.000If they have to run a candidate that is pro Trump, social conservative, anti Nancy Pelosi, to even contest somebody in Pennsylvania, where Democrats were winning 16, 17, 18 years ago in this district, I think that'll tell us that just like with Texas, we have to qualify the blue wave.
00:37:51.000In Texas, we saw a blue wave, but we saw something peculiar about it.
00:37:54.000It wasn't that big, it couldn't overpower the conservatives, and it was split, not just along ideological lines between progressives and establishment.
00:38:02.000But also along ethnic lines between Hispanics and the rest.
00:38:06.000And if this election, let's say by an act of God, Condorland pulls it off, the polls are right, and he either comes very close or he wins, it tells us that the Democrats would have to do a serious 180.
00:38:17.000This reflexive anti Trump, compulsive anti Trump, obstructionist, we love DACA, we love abortion and all the rest, that stuff's not going to fly.
00:38:26.000Maybe this guy wins in Pennsylvania, but they're not going to turn out for a Democrat that's like Nancy Pelosi in Montana.
00:38:32.000They're not going to turn out for Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi in Missouri.
00:38:38.000So I think, again, a cautious optimism.
00:38:41.000I think if you actually break down what's happening in this race, it's worrisome because we've injected $10 million, Republicans have injected $10 million into this race because the polls aren't looking good and they're trying desperately to shore up a very safe district, which should be a safe district, which shouldn't be contested.
00:39:00.000And they're fighting against a candidate who's young and handsome and is a Marine and is blue collar and saying all the right things and a good campaigner and good fundraiser.
00:39:09.000And if we lose tomorrow, it'll be an embarrassment and it'll be very scary because Democrats will use that and say, look at this boost for our morale.
00:39:20.000I'm not downplaying that that would be a bad thing, but I am saying that we can't discount the fact that this is not like a frizzy haired, you know, social justice warrior mulatto who's coming in saying, we're going to take your guns and we're going to abort newborn babies.
00:39:35.000We're just going to throw them out on the street and we're going to go to war against Russia.
00:39:39.000I mean, this is not the archetypal Democrat that Chuck Schumer and the far left base is pushing.
00:39:44.000It is somebody who looks like the Democrats of 25 years ago.
00:39:48.000And I think that says it all right there.
00:39:51.000I think that tells you a little bit about how Trump is doing.
00:39:54.000If Trump is at a 95% approval rating within his own party, if even the Democrats in Trump's districts are running saying, we'll vote for Trump, we'll be like Trump, we'll govern like Trump, I think that tells you a lot about the direction we're headed in.
00:40:06.000And I don't know if that's totally a bad thing.
00:40:08.000Even if he can contest with this, I think it tells us that either way, we have a winning message.
00:43:22.000Joe the Serb says, N, please explain to Fegaloos, Brosup, slash Dirt Kevin why it's okay that I didn't vote for David Duke and went with those who had better optics, slash more relatable winners.
00:43:36.000Well, I mean, I think if you're looking at the movement as it stands, we just can't afford to be supporting people that aren't serious.
00:43:46.000We can't afford to let personalities who we may like.
00:43:50.000Or maybe we agree with, or maybe we admire.
00:43:52.000None of those things are true with Duke.
00:44:32.000But if the movement, if the organizational structure, if the strategy, if the personalities get in the way of what we're trying to achieve, I don't want to be a part of the movement.
00:44:42.000If you're a toy company, you're trying to sell toys.
00:44:46.000You may have a manager that you really love, you may have a team that you really love, but if you're not accomplishing your objective, which is to sell toys and make money, You got to fire them.
00:45:04.000But unfortunately, politics is not decided by good people or people who we may like or people who we enjoy or even tell the truth all the time, explicit and unfiltered and in the worst possible optics.
00:45:18.000But people who are smart and people who are strategic and people who are willing to do what it takes.
00:45:27.000And it would have been interesting, I think, to see Duke get into the legislature.
00:45:31.000I think it would have been interesting.
00:45:32.000I think it would have made a lot of liberals upset.
00:45:35.000I don't know if doing things to upset liberals is a good thing, but we have to be furthering people, elevating people that can win, elevating people that can actually make a difference.
00:46:11.000He says he was young and he made a mistake.
00:46:13.000And we all made mistakes when we were young.
00:46:15.000I'm young now, and I'm making mistakes, people say.
00:46:18.000And everybody makes mistakes when they're young.
00:46:20.000Unfortunately, the political climate is such that you associate with something so reprehensible, which actually did commit political violence, which I'm against.
00:46:29.000And it makes it so that anybody who associates with that person.
00:46:33.000By, you know, in a de facto way, adopts their political baggage.
00:47:16.000Optics applies to what you're seriously saying.
00:47:18.000There's all the difference in the world between unironically going out and putting on a Nazi uniform, as TWP does, and doing a national socialism or death tour, and it's totally unironic, totally serious.
00:47:33.000These are their convictions, and Millennial Matt throwing up a Roman salute or whatever as a joke.
00:47:38.000Again, these are not people you want to be taking pictures with and you want in a political movement, but.
00:48:20.000Well, the thought that Russian troll farms, if they even exist, getting a million dollars a month were in any way, shape, or form changing the outcome of the election is so absurd.
00:48:33.000Anybody who talks about that should be laughed right out of the public square.
00:48:36.000I mean, think of how much money was spent by both sides.
00:48:39.000Think of how much money was spent by Hillary Clinton and what she got from multinational corporations, from lobbyists, foreign and domestic, from banks.
00:49:24.000Well, if it's such a concern to you, well, we'll just have to implement national voter ID and we'll have to get rid of the electronic voting because we got to make sure it's a sound process.
00:49:33.000And all these people are concerned about foreign interference and then they bring over illegal immigrants and let them vote in Chicago, right?
00:50:00.000It would be so much more helpful if you could not be ambiguous because Fractor enthusiasts are using all these esoteric terminology and names here.
00:50:10.000Woke Shree, Rachel Corey, a 23 year old American girl, ran over by an Israel armored bulldozer in Gaza, 2003.
00:52:02.000I think the monetarist solution is the best.
00:52:04.000The Milton Friedman answer is the best, which is make it so that the quantity of money grows through an algorithm that's based on gross domestic product or some other variable.
00:52:14.000Instead of having a board of 13 or so people in different banks arbitrarily deciding how much money there should be, what the interest rate should be, what do you think the interest rate should be?
00:52:27.000And, you know, 12 people make the decision how much money there should be in the country.
00:52:32.000Instead of that, we should have the quantity of money be a function that's predictable, that everybody knows, and tie it to GDP or something like that.
00:52:42.000Because the way it is, it's too discretionary.
00:53:52.000I attract women not by asking them out, but just by having a Chad podcast.
00:53:56.000I go to the gym and I just exude so much tea, so much raw energy that I don't even have to ask.
00:54:04.000I just look and they just start following me around wherever I go.
00:54:08.000It's like it's this effect where I take a picture with a woman and I'm dating them.
00:54:12.000This is a little known effect that I have on people because on poll, they take a few pictures that I took with a friend of mine from Boston University and they say, Nick is dating this person.
00:55:40.000Optics adders more for people that are in the leadership, that are representative of the movement, not just people that attend things.
00:55:47.000You know, so I don't think it really so much matters.
00:55:49.000If you were a politician, I would say probably not.
00:55:51.000If you were, you know, going to be putting your face out there and preaching American nationalism, that would be bad optics.
00:55:57.000But if you're just, you love your culture and you love your heritage, don't let anybody tell you not to represent.
00:56:03.000Don't let anybody tell you not to wear it.
00:56:05.000The problem becomes when people want to take leadership and they become a liability, when their optics become a liability, right?
00:56:13.000So, I'm not going to tell people you can't wear that, you can't wear this, you can't be fat, you shouldn't be fat, but you can't do this or that.
00:56:19.000I'm saying if you're going to say, I represent this group of people, of which I'm a constituent, you ought to look well.
00:56:25.000You ought to represent the movement well.
00:56:27.000You know, when your parents tell you when you go to school or you go to a restaurant or you go to a foreign country, they say, You're representing our family.
00:56:35.000Or, you know, if you're in a school and you play travel sports, you're representing our school.
00:57:47.000Like, it's not backbreaking labor, but it's tough.
00:57:50.000Because it's tedious, and a lot of times you have to finagle with apps, and if you go to the headquarters with a phone, and people hang up on you, and you have to ask questions, and you have to remain upbeat.
00:58:00.000It's very tough to get hung up on a lot.
00:58:01.000It's not easy work, and it's not glamorous work.
00:58:05.000You don't get the same dopamine rush having yourself hung up on 15 different times, and maybe you get one person to say, Yeah, I'm going to vote for Rick Sacone, than it is when you go out and you get to yell and scream, and I get to be righteously angry at a rally on Sunday and then drink with my friends.
01:00:55.000That's really appealing to middle class, white, working class Americans as Nazi propaganda.
01:01:02.000Hey, remember that regime that your grandfather fought against?
01:01:05.000Remember that thing that everyone, like people have spent billions of dollars convincing you that's the one thing that is just beyond the pale?
01:01:34.000But money and also personality to an extent plays a role.
01:01:38.000But moreover, ability to protect, ability to provide.
01:01:41.000And women, you know, women these days, they see a teenager with a nice jawline, whether it's teachers or it's high profile people in there, they can't control themselves.
01:01:50.000But it does, there is a little bit of hope for men where men.
01:01:55.000As they mature, as they age, men age like a fine wine, whereas women do not.
01:02:00.000Men grow their wealth, men get more experience, they develop expertise in their fields, they develop prestige in their fields, they learn how to work with women and interact with women.
01:02:11.000And women just, their eggs dry up, and women don't age as well as men.
01:02:16.000So it's like, you know, all these women, they can laugh now.
01:02:21.000They laugh and they laugh and they say, oh, if you're against women or, you know, if you're against feminism, you're just MGTOW, you're just this and that.
01:02:30.000All we have to do is very ominously look at the watch.
01:02:33.000You know, next time you get one of these trad thoughts, next time you get any thought saying, you're MGTOW, you're this or that, just remind them.
01:03:25.000And we only, the reason why we bully them is because we want them to see the light.
01:03:30.000We want them to come around to our way of thinking.
01:03:32.000We want them to be happy, to be mothers.
01:03:35.000To fulfill their function, they could be at harmony with the world and with themselves.
01:03:40.000And even if you look at some of the literature that I have that has been written by traditionalists, by people like this, particularly Spangler, they have glowing things to say about women.
01:03:52.000The traditionalists, you would think from what feminists say about traditionalism, you would think you open up the book and it's like, Women are dumb.
01:03:58.000Women are dumb and they belong in the kitchen.
01:06:15.000The people I think these days, when there's so much casual sex, when there are so many, you know, If you want sex, you can get it these days, basically.
01:06:23.000You know, with all the dating apps and bars and just the ubiquity of sex, it's available everywhere.
01:06:29.000And I think, especially with Generation Z, we're kind of sick of it.
01:06:32.000I think I've observed this with a lot of my peers.
01:06:35.000People will engage in it, they feel like they have to.
01:06:37.000It's a way to cope with life and its pain, its suffering, and the numbness that they feel.
01:06:43.000But I think deep down, you see a longing in every successive generation for a better connection.
01:06:49.000And it sounds gay, but the personality stuff.
01:06:51.000I think these days, even though a woman might say they want, you know, a big buff, Even though they might, you know, cheat.
01:08:37.000It's why, you know, people would say, Nick, why is it so silly what you do?
01:08:41.000You know, people make fun of me all the time.
01:08:43.000You know, they're in college throwing 50 grand into a degree that's useless and they say, Nick, why are you, you know, starting your own thing?
01:08:50.000But I do it because I love the people.
01:08:54.000But dissident writes, as long term electorally, if Dems can nominate blue dog shapeshifters in Trump districts and win, do you think they can afford to replicate that in the future or is this just an exception to the general direction of the party?
01:09:11.000This is not repeatable, what the Democrats are doing in Pennsylvania tomorrow.
01:09:16.000It's not scalable, I should say, in the sense that look at the coalition that the Democrats have built with Hispanics, with blacks, with Asians, homosexuals, Muslims, immigrants, all these groups.
01:09:30.000If they're appealing to white people, if they're appealing to the white working class, not going to fly with this coalition.
01:09:34.000They won't get the turnout, they won't get the vote.
01:09:50.000The Democrats have staked the future of their party on this gambit of we can transform the civilization so quickly that we can forget about the white vote.
01:11:07.000I mean, that's, think about what people are telling you.
01:11:10.000They're telling you you have to go out there, get yourself banned from social media, get yourself delegitimized by all the media, all the institutions.
01:11:20.000You make yourself unemployable, get yourself fired from your job, make your wife leave you, but then you'll be pure.
01:11:28.000I think I would much rather have a movement where it's implicit, but you have people that are in business, you have people that are lawyers, you have people that are doctors and scientists and politicians and people in media than an army of unemployable, fat people who take to the streets and they have no stake.
01:11:47.000I would take that deal any day of the week.
01:11:50.000Hey, people that wouldn't take that deal, by all means, take the army of people who are willing to put themselves out there and say crazy things and ruin their lives.
01:11:59.000You can have the martyrs, and we'll have the people that want to win.
01:14:00.000I hate to do it, but people ask the problem is this people ask questions about things and they already know the answer and they expect a disavowal and they want to get a disavowal so they could say, Nick is a cuss.
01:14:31.000We can't just let anybody in and anybody dictate the course without thinking it through, without thinking about strategy, tactics, what our goals are.
01:15:07.000But nevertheless, onward and upward, we have fantastic coverage coming for you tomorrow of the 2018 special election in the 18th District of Pennsylvania.
