Trump announces a new $600 billion investment in the United States by Saudi Arabia, but what does that actually mean and why should it matter to the rest of the world? And what does it mean for the future of the country and the world at large?
00:06:09.240from the Republican Party and they need to be people
00:06:13.820that start standing up and saying, this is self-defeating. You can't have masked men going
00:06:19.800in, pulling American citizens up or people that have their proper papers. You can't, you got to
00:06:26.260stop doing this. Let's focus on the future. You can't like be blowing up boats indiscriminately.
00:06:34.100Let's worry about China and Russia. You can't. I mean, again, the distractions are just so overwhelming and we're taking our eye off of what's most important for the future of this country. And that doesn't even include all of the people coming out of college that will not have jobs next year. Let me say that again.
00:06:58.100All the people coming out of college that will not have jobs next year because the AI apocalypse is here now.
00:07:09.100Potential of this technology, the excitement is very rational.
00:31:24.900Why you do it consistently and why it's always pretty close?
00:31:27.900This is they call it generic because we don't cite specific candidates.
00:31:31.900We're literally asking people about that.
00:31:33.900Would you vote for the generic Republican or the generic Democrat if the elections were today in your congressional district?
00:31:39.900So this is a House vote, a generic vote for the House of Representatives.
00:31:43.900And we track it all the time because, of course, it gives you the national mood, number one.
00:31:47.900But also it gives you an idea of where the House is going, where people are thinking, where voters are considering when the elections come up and who they're going to vote for from the House of Representatives.
00:31:57.900That poll was done on the 10th of November, which is very important here, guys.
00:32:03.900It went from Democrat one point two to Democrat seven point eight.
00:32:08.900And it almost all came from, by the way, some of the people who say they're undecided or they're picking somebody else, a third party going to the Democrats and a bunch of Republicans actually saying I'm voting third party or not voting at all.
00:32:22.900Right. And of course, at the end of the day, the third party vote share will not be that high.
00:32:26.900But it does tell you that a lot of Republicans are thinking of just not voting.
00:32:30.900All right. So that was out in the 10th.
00:32:32.900And now we have the Marist poll, which is an opportunist.
00:32:35.900They're not MAGA friendly, but it does show show you the direction.
00:32:38.900They never waste a chance to exaggerate a Democratic lead.
00:32:41.900But it is noteworthy because there's being done four days later showing Democrat plus 14 does give you a bit of an idea of where this is going.
00:32:50.900And I got to tell you, Steve, after last last night's debacle, the Republican Party came out looking very, very bad last night.
00:32:58.900So none of these interviews that we're talking about today takes into consideration the recent infighting that you've been seeing over the weekend, even into the early this week.
00:33:19.900It's driven a lot of Republicans into I don't want to say a malaise, but, you know, the the idea that they're losing faith is probably an accurate idea.
00:33:27.900I mean, that that's a that's an accurate way to think to characterize.
00:33:30.900Do you think that this did you think any of this came up from Epstein to anything, anything else, maybe not seeing the policies or however you want to define it was the difference between what people thought, particularly New Jersey, would be close versus in also Virginia and that these turn out to be blowouts.
00:33:49.900These were double digits, I think, 10 or 12 points in New Jersey and even more than that in Virginia.
00:33:54.900The part of that is already shown by the lack of motivation of maybe some of the people, particularly the lower propensity voters to turn out for these things.
00:34:26.900And what we're seeing right now, number one and two, it tells a story.
00:34:31.900I mean, it's it's I can tell you guys it's Epstein and Israel, but Israel stands as a symbol of foreign policy.
00:34:37.900People are mad that the administration got sidelined with other things that they didn't really care about.
00:34:44.900Now we're going into the new year and people are concerned that the administration and Congress, the Republican Congress, while they have it, did not address the issues that he was elected to address.
00:34:55.900And by the way, many of them were elected kicking and screaming with Trump dragging them behind him.
00:35:01.900You know, we're elected to address as well.
00:35:03.900So, I mean, it's actually a stunning result, Steve.
00:35:06.900I really thought in Virginia easily they were going to tell us it was the government shutdown.
00:35:10.900It's not not even in northern Virginia.
00:35:59.900Folks, folks, when you get a generic ballot a year before a midterm that shows you, well, Baris, you tell me, how many, how many D plus or R plus 14s have you ever seen?
00:36:09.900This is, that's the type of number you see on the Tea Party sweep, Tea Party sweep of 2010, maybe, but zero, that's the highest you've ever seen?
00:36:17.900I mean, zero, because as far as R plus, because they did under, polls did understate the Tea Party sweep.
00:36:23.900Honestly, the folks at Rasmussen and a few others back then were one of the only ones, they got made fun of it too, were the only ones who at this time were forecasting a big Republican sweep was coming.
00:36:35.900And for people who say, oh, it's still early, it is, that's true.
00:36:39.900Right about now, the generic ballot does start to get pretty predictive.
00:36:42.900So it's very, people's views don't change at the last minute as much as people like to think they do.
00:36:48.900They start to believe now, they start to form a narrative and tell a story in their head and those who are truly persuadable will start to decide much earlier than people think.
00:36:58.900And it's hard once those views and once those decisions are ingrained in their minds, it's very difficult to change their views and change the direction they want to go.
00:37:06.900So the time is running out for Republicans.
00:37:08.900They got to, they got to wake up, Steve.
00:37:16.900Just need to get, just need to get back to the basis.
00:37:18.900If Scott Besson, Scott Besson said the other day, this theory of the case about the capital expenditures for the big, beautiful bill of getting expense, plants starting to be built.
00:37:28.900You are getting some international here.
00:37:30.900I think people got to monitor that much closely or closer.
00:37:34.900He said the other day, Maria, it's probably the second quarter when you see the inflection point and this starts to get turbocharged.
00:37:54.900That would, that would definitely give Republicans a boost.
00:37:56.900And when we put out this poll and started showing it around over the weekend, that's the story I got to from, from congressional Republicans.
00:38:04.900They were like, look, this is going to come back.
00:38:06.900It's going to give us a, you know, this is going to give us the wind at our backs moving into the election.
00:38:10.900I mean, that's in part true, but working 90, 95 days in the next year is probably not going to cut it along with that.
00:38:17.900They have to be seen as doing things because the president might get a lot of credit, Steve.
00:38:23.900The president may see a rebound in, in his numbers, but that does not necessarily mean it's going to translate to report support for Republicans down ballot.
00:38:31.900They've had this problem for 10 years.
00:46:31.90030,000 students did not show up in Charlotte the other day because of the force of President Trump sending folks down their eyes to enforce the immigration laws of the United States of America.
00:46:42.900I think that's what 21 percent, 25 percent of the school population, ma'am.
00:47:13.900We've actually surpassed Mecklenburg for the number of students that we have.
00:47:17.900And they sent out a notice saying that they were going to be doing online learning for those students that were scared to come to school and they were wanting to help the parents to basically hide their children.
00:47:36.900And we what President Trump is trying to do is he's trying to correct the last 20 years of the Democrats flooding our nation with people that don't want to be Americans.
00:47:46.900They just want the benefit of living in our country.
00:47:50.900And the time now is if you are fearful, then you should self deport yourself.
00:47:55.900I'm pretty sure that Tom Homan has stated that you can get $1,000 per person and you can get help with a plane fare or some type of transportation to your country of origin.
00:48:07.900Why did the Democrats, if they're so concerned about illegal immigration, if they're so concerned about our immigrants, why for the last four years when Biden was in office, were they not helping to streamline the system so people could become citizens of the United States?
00:48:23.900They the Democrats have to remember something.
00:48:25.900They were in power for 12 years under B.O. as well as under Biden.
00:48:30.900And they had every opportunity to make sure that people that wanted to be Americans could have become Americans and they did nothing.
00:48:37.900And for them to act like they're totally shocked and surprised is ridiculous.
00:48:41.900President Trump has never been shy since he started running for president in 2015 about the fact that we have got to ensure that Americans are put first.
00:48:51.900Michelle, about these saying they're going to let them, you know, get an American education paid for by taxpayers in North Carolina and in the country, that they're going to do it remote.
00:49:21.900So how do we get to the how do we get now to the online aspect of it and don't let them use that to kind of shelter people?
00:49:28.900Well, to your point about breaking the law and these people are aiding and abetting the entire school system is doing that.
00:49:34.900But, Steve, it hasn't just been this since President Trump sent down his orders, his executive orders that there was not going to have any more DEI.
00:49:42.900We weren't going to be promoting the LGBTQ nonsense.
00:49:44.900Whole school districts are actually bragging about the fact that they're still doing that.
00:49:49.900I mean, shockingly, the only thing that tends to work is when we take away their money.
00:49:54.900It was very frustrating when the federal government told us that we were not going to get our funding for schools because we were not following the law.
00:50:04.900And our Democrat attorney general put up a stink that he was going to sue the federal government.
00:50:12.900The Education Department caved within like three weeks.
00:50:14.900That's the only recourse that we have is to start making people pay penalties for their crimes.
00:50:20.900And honestly, we can even extrapolate that to everything in society.
00:50:24.900When we have our school system, which is the largest expenditure in the entire state of North Carolina, 52% of all of our tax money goes to public education in this state.
00:50:36.900And we're looking at that we the taxpayers are the ones that are funding for all these people to be using our sources and to be spending the time of our law enforcement instead of protecting our communities.
00:50:47.900We're having to do this because you're willingly aiding and abetting.
00:50:51.900Michelle, where do people get you on social media?
00:50:54.900Man, we wish we had you as the head of the Department of Education in Carolina.
00:50:58.900Where do people go to find you, ma'am?
00:52:15.900He's our wise man, a former CIA, Pentagon, and White House advisor with an unmatched grasp of geopolitics and capital markets.
