Relatable with Allie Beth Stuckey - Ep 1064 ｜ My Advice to Trump for Tonight's Debate

00:00:00.000 Going into the presidential debate tonight, Donald Trump is commanding a slight lead in

00:00:07.940 national polling against Kamala Harris, but a lot is at stake. My dad is here to give President

00:00:16.640 Trump a little bit of advice and to give you our analysis of where we are in the race. We are also

00:00:23.780 going to look at some policies of Kamala Harris versus Donald Trump, economic policies, immigration

00:00:30.380 policies that will have a real effect not only on your life, but on your children's lives. So we'll

00:00:37.040 get into all of that today. But before we start that conversation with my dad, I've got a fun

00:00:41.900 announcement. You might have already seen it on Instagram and X, but our Share the Arrows event,

00:04:43.540 just want to remember who wins, who wins in the end. That doesn't mean it doesn't matter who wins the

00:04:50.040 election. Of course that matters a lot, but in the end, Jesus wins and these sweatshirts and these

00:04:54.800 hats are embroidered. And so really high quality. We've been working on these for several months now,

00:05:00.840 making sure that we have the right options. We've got hoodies, we've got crew necks, we've got a dad

00:05:09.640 allymerch.com. Check those out. All right. That's it for housekeeping and announcements. Now we are

00:05:16.120 going to get into the conversation about the debate and this election with my dad. I think

00:05:21.380 it's, I think he is y'all's favorite guest. Am I right? I always get comments and messages about

00:05:27.440 how comforting he is, but also how spot on his analysis is. So y'all are going to love this

00:05:32.180 conversation. This is brought to you by friends of good ranchers. Go to good ranchers.com

00:05:36.000 use code alley and check out this good ranchers.com code alley.

00:05:46.120 Dad, welcome back. Thank you. It's good to be back. It's been a while since I've

00:05:52.920 sat on the Stucky couch. Yes, I know. But that's not for lack of trying. My people have tried to

00:05:59.520 contact your people and you have been busy. Yeah, that's right. We have been busy. But you're here.

00:06:05.520 Okay. So Trump is debating tonight. And last time, I think it was the last time we talked in person

00:06:10.920 here. We both kind of said, I don't think that he should do that. I don't think he should debate

00:06:17.180 Kamala Harris. Do you still feel that way? Absolutely. This is just going to be another

00:06:22.500 way for the media starting tonight and going on for the next week or two to just prop her up.

00:06:29.780 She's not going to make any mistakes. She has been prepping for this debate, which means all she's

00:06:35.040 doing is memorizing answers. And so all they're going to do is prop her up. As we're reading

00:06:41.400 last night that ABC, of all the stories they put out about her, 100% positive. What they put out

00:06:49.760 about President Trump, 93% negative. So how do you think this is going to go? I mean, it just doesn't

00:06:55.620 make any sense. He's already debated the policies that she stood for. Why would he do that again?

00:07:02.160 It just, he needs to be in those swing states so that he controls the message. He's not going to

00:07:08.160 control the message tonight, no matter what he does. Yeah. That was according to a media research

00:07:12.500 center. They found that the coverage, like you said, of Harris was 100% positive. Now consider that

00:07:19.880 of all of the things, any politician, any politician has ever said, surely the sentinels of our democracy,

00:07:27.380 that's what they think of themselves as in the media would have something negative to say about

00:07:32.760 the person in power, but apparently not. Um, okay, but they are debating. All right. So he made

00:07:38.400 listen to it. So they're doing it. They made the decision to debate and just to play devil's advocate,

00:07:43.400 because when I said, I don't think he should debate her, there were a lot of people who said,

00:07:47.940 well, that's just going to look really bad. He's going to look cowardly. She's going to be able to

00:07:52.420 basically call him a chicken and you're scared of a girl. That kind of playground rhetoric may have

00:08:00.240 been effective if he had said no. What do you think about that? Do you think it would have looked

00:08:05.540 even worse if he would have seemed too scared to debate her? Well, I think the media would have

00:08:09.980 tried to do that, but I think he could, he could have an effect on the messaging. He, again, he could

00:08:14.400 say, I've already debated the policies of your policies changed. If they've changed, why don't you

00:08:19.180 send them to me? Come up with your new policies, Ms. Harris, and send them to me. And then I'll

00:08:23.440 think about debating you, but I'll tell you what I'll do. I'll invite you to one of my rallies and

00:08:27.540 we can, we can talk there if you want to. I'm happy to see if you can convince all the people that come

00:08:32.180 out and support me. Yeah. I think that their strategy is going to be on the Harris side to try to trigger

00:08:40.440 him. Actually, Hillary Clinton, who apparently is advising Kamala Harris. I don't know why they would get

00:08:45.920 the advice of Hillary Clinton. Obviously she lost, but is advising Kamala Harris on this. And she told

00:08:50.940 the media that she has advised her to try to get under his skin, to try to bait him, to try to see

00:08:58.640 if she can trigger him, which is the right strategy if you're looking from her perspective. And Trump

00:09:05.180 needs to seem, as he did in the last debate, which I think he did excellent against Joe Biden,

00:09:09.600 unperturbed, dignified, even compassionate, a little sorry feeling for her. He cannot come

00:09:18.920 across as a triggered bully. If people remember that fateful debate that he had against Joe Biden

00:09:24.460 in 2020, Joe Biden was already looking old. He was already looking doddering. And I think team Trump

00:09:32.260 hoped that that contrast back then would really help. And if Trump looked strong and overpowering,

00:09:39.220 that that would be beneficial to him, it did the opposite. We have the risk of that tonight.

00:09:45.820 She's 5'2 with shoes on. He is 6'4. If he looks like he is overpowering her and talking over her,

00:09:55.000 because I think the mics are going to be on the whole time. If he looks like a bully,

00:09:58.840 that will elicit sympathy for Kamala Harris. Sympathy is the last emotion that we want America

00:10:06.300 to feel for her. I don't think, Ali, unless they change it lately, that the mics are going to be

00:10:11.660 on the whole time. I think they're going to be muted. Has that changed?

00:10:14.380 Brie, can you fact check us on that? I know that there was a debate over that,

00:10:17.920 that Kamala Harris wanted them on the whole time. I know, but I don't think they ever agreed to it.

00:10:21.360 Okay. Either way.

00:10:23.300 Is that going to be cut?

00:10:25.020 No. Well, I don't know. We might cut it. We might not cut it. Who knows?

00:10:29.180 Either way, whether the mics are on or not, he needs to seem completely unbothered by her

00:10:35.840 and totally focused on talking to the American people. Do not let, because she'll be like a

00:10:41.860 mosquito just baiting him. And he cannot let her do that.

00:10:46.680 And that's what you and I said the first time on why he shouldn't debate her, because it's all

00:10:51.500 going to be about her baiting him. And even if the mics are off, okay, when they come back on,

00:10:58.560 he needs to resist the urge to lash back out at her personally. And you can bet when they do the

00:11:06.840 side-by-side, they're going to make him look like a giant. I mean, that's just what's going to happen.

00:11:12.880 And she is going to be stoic. She will handle that well. She knows how to do that. She's an actor.

00:11:19.680 She's been an actor in a sense, you know, in the courtroom and other places. So I think it's a high

00:11:26.800 risk. Now, if she flubs it, which I don't think she will, because they've already set really low

00:11:32.440 expectations for her, then maybe it was an advantage. But I don't see it as an advantage.

00:11:37.800 I don't think that she will now, because she's going to have, as you said, very prepared remarks.

00:11:42.780 She's not good off the cuff. Extemporaneously, she is, I think, rather bumbling and embarrassing.

00:11:49.400 And if Trump can somehow trigger her into that, to talking in circles, trying to

00:11:55.320 give an account for how she flip-flopped on things like fracking and illegal immigration,

00:12:00.840 then that would be good. But the moderators aren't going to do it. The thing with this is that for

00:12:04.780 Trump, and again, the reason why we said don't do it, is because it's going to be the moderators

00:12:09.280 and Kamala Harris against Donald Trump. He is going to be, I think, the only one who is made to give

00:12:15.820 specific answers. But which week do you want to ban abortion? Would you sign this legislation?

00:12:22.440 What about X, Y, Z? And he has to pivot. He should not be baited by, at what week do you want to ban

00:12:32.400 abortion? You got to pivot. Yeah, no question about that. As we've talked about many times,

00:12:37.380 the first rule in politics is you do never have to answer the question that someone asks you.

00:12:42.220 Yeah. You take your points. And again, I think he should say,

00:12:46.440 you know, Madam Moderator, I'll answer your question. But first, however,

00:12:51.780 you know, this really goes back to the flip-flop that she's done on this issue or that issue or

00:12:56.780 whatever, right? Something like that. That's what I would do, because that might be able to get her

00:13:01.180 goad as well. Okay. So Bree says that they are not, they are going to keep the mics muted

00:13:09.520 in between. And Kamala Harris's campaign was saying for a while, we're not going to do this

00:13:15.820 unless the mics are unmuted, because she knows how Trump kind of talks back. And she knew that

00:13:20.180 that would make her look better. They are going to do it. Kamala is now saying, though, that she

00:13:24.120 is fundamentally disadvantaged by the current format. Bree, is that right? So I don't know.

00:13:29.620 Although that's exactly what the Harris-Biden administration asked for in the first debate.

00:13:33.680 It was them that pushed the muted mics in the first debate that Biden and Trump had.

00:13:39.480 Yeah. And now they're saying, well, we're going to change that, right?

00:13:42.120 It does help. That does help Trump to mute the mic. So thank the Lord for muted mics.

00:13:47.460 Absolutely. Okay. There are some mumblings of this,

00:13:51.200 that Kamala Harris is going to say tonight to try to elicit sympathy and to try to

00:13:57.600 put Trump off, that she herself had an abortion and that she is going to tell this heart-rending

00:14:05.800 story about how she had to choose abortion. And she's so glad that she had that option.

00:14:13.680 I think Donald Trump, if she does that, should basically ignore that or at the very most say

00:14:22.060 something along the lines of, you know, your life matters, but your baby's life mattered too.

00:14:28.840 I want to make a country in which every mom and baby and dad are safe and prosperous. I think that's

00:14:36.580 all he should do. He shouldn't go on and on about it. What is your thought?

00:14:40.580 Well, my first thought, is it Willie Brown's? Was it Willie Brown's? Whose baby was it? If that's

00:14:46.120 what she said. Please, Donald Trump, don't say that. Don't say that on the debate stage.

00:14:50.900 Don't say that, but I mean, that's my first thought. I think he should either ignore it,

00:14:55.000 like you said, or just say, that's a very sad scenario that, uh, you know, we had a baby die.

00:15:03.660 Yeah. That's what's sad.

00:15:05.780 Yeah. I think that that's, but then you pivot, you pivot, you don't, because the media is going

00:15:11.660 to try to paint her as a hero for being so honest and so real about that. And that's going to be

00:15:18.760 relatable to one set of people, but to a whole other set of people, that's going to be like,

00:15:25.080 really? You sacrificed your baby for your whatever. Right. Um, and so he just needs to

00:15:30.620 be smart about that. Any other advice? I think she takes, I think she takes a risk in saying that

00:15:34.620 herself though, because what's the reason behind it? Yeah. What, what, what, what's, what's your

00:15:39.900 reason for doing that? Just because it would help your career. I don't think that'll gain as much

00:15:43.940 sympathy as she thinks it would. Right. And I, I, that's why I'm not sure that she,

00:15:49.460 that she will end up saying that. I think that the other advice I would give him is his last two

00:15:53.520 minutes. He speaks last. Okay. For the closings, which I, which I read this morning. And so for that,

00:15:59.580 I would just focus on those policy things. I would never mention her name. All right. I would only

00:16:07.780 focus on inflation and immigration, inflation and immigration. The polling shows that he way out

00:16:16.400 performs in those areas. Yeah. Well, she's flip-flopped so much. She has said over and over

00:16:22.640 again, we played a whole montage last week of her saying crossing the border illegally. Is it in itself

00:16:29.480 a crime? Yes, it is. Yeah. And she doesn't believe it should be a crime. So just think about the massive

00:16:34.640 implications and the cascading effect of something like that.

00:16:42.160 All right. Quick pause to tell you guys about our first sponsor for the day. It's Adele Natural

00:16:46.400 Cosmetics. Every morning and every night I am using skincare from Adele Natural Cosmetics. I love that

00:16:52.880 they are all natural, holistic ingredients right from nature. I don't have to worry about any fake

00:16:59.720 toxic ingredients, the parabens, the fragrances, the endocrine disruptors that you find in so much

00:17:06.140 skincare and in so many makeup products nowadays. Arlene started Adele Natural Cosmetics because of

00:17:12.200 her own health journey. She really had to start paying attention to not just what she was putting

00:17:16.500 in her body, but also on her body just to make sure she was as healthy as possible. And that's when

00:17:22.120 she began Adele Natural Cosmetics and they make super effective, all natural products. They are a

00:17:28.480 family owned company. They're a Christian family, completely unapologetic about their faith and

00:17:48.800 All right. Let's talk about the polls a little bit. Trump is doing better. Trump is doing better than he

00:17:54.620 had previously. A New York Times Sienna poll made headlines this weekend showing that Trump is

00:18:00.160 pulling ahead of Vice President Harris by one point, which is kind of remarkable considering how much

00:18:06.940 the media is against him. Yeah. And they over-poll Democrats in that particular poll based on what

00:18:12.100 I've read. The percentages generally should be pretty split if you're just looking at Republican or

00:18:20.000 Democrat. If you throw independents in there, it changes a little bit. But what is really interesting

00:18:24.780 and Nate Silver, which a lot of people probably heard of, he's a pollster that had the website 538

00:18:32.420 and they look at a conglomeration of things. Real statistical guy. I read an article from him the

00:18:39.080 other day that said that Kamala Harris in the national polling, which usually I don't pay much attention to

00:18:45.320 because it's really going to come down to individual state elections. People should really

00:18:50.220 understand that. This is about electing your state, electing the president through your votes. It's not

00:18:57.200 about us as a massive number. But because of the number of people that live in New York and in

00:19:04.300 California, the Democratic candidate, in this case Harris, needs to be ahead in national polling by more

00:19:14.040 than three points to have a chance to win because of the way the electoral college works. They can run

00:19:21.320 the score up in California, but if they win California by 2 million votes or 1 million votes,

00:19:27.660 they still only get 55 delegates. It doesn't really matter. And that's why Hillary Clinton lost

00:19:34.940 is because she didn't have that. She won a bunch of the national numbers, but she didn't win enough

00:19:43.860 to really make up for the difference. So this is good numbers for President Trump. I am still though

00:19:51.520 concerned a little bit about his performance in some of the swing states. Yeah. Right now we've got

00:19:56.800 some numbers from real clear polling on that. Arizona, he's up by 1.6. And gosh, Harris is up in

00:20:05.400 every other swing state. Nevada, Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania is a tie. North Carolina,

00:20:11.740 Trump up 0.1. And Georgia, Trump 0.3. And Nevada, for example, Harris is only up by 0.6, but Wisconsin

00:20:20.440 1.5, Michigan 1.2. And what's your take on those numbers? Well, I would say that I would say Michigan

00:20:27.500 has got to be a concern for Harris. She wants it to be way more than that. Oh, no question about it

00:20:34.380 because she won by, I mean, Biden won by more than that in Michigan anyway in 2020, I believe. And so

00:20:42.080 that's a concern for her because if she really, if she loses one of those states, I don't think she

00:20:47.940 has a path because I do think he's going to win Arizona. I do think he's going to win Georgia. Okay.

00:20:52.920 Biden won Georgia last time. I know that. I know that. But I do think he's going to win Georgia.

00:20:57.820 I think that the Republican Party has been awakened there to get moving. I hope anyway,

00:21:05.500 we have a lot of friends in Georgia. I know. How much do you think this has to do with it being so

00:21:10.800 close in Georgia, which it's just crazy that this is even considered a swing state now? How much do

00:21:16.140 you think that has to do with Trump's adversarial relationship with Brian Kemp, who was a pretty

00:21:21.260 popular governor among Republicans in Georgia? I think that was a negative for him. No question

00:21:25.860 about it. Now, supposedly they have, you know, they've come back together and we'll see if that's

00:21:31.520 great. I have a very good friend that is very, very active in Georgia politics and has run their

00:21:39.580 Republican committee over there and what have you. He assures me that they're going to win Georgia and

00:21:46.280 he's usually right on this type of stuff. So yeah, see how all that goes. Also think he'll win

00:21:50.960 North Carolina. I don't think North Carolina has changed very much since 2020. And remember Trump

00:21:55.660 won North Carolina in 2020 when Biden was winning everything else. So. Right. Right. Which is

00:22:01.580 interesting. I mean, when you consider just the absolute campaign that the media has been forging

00:22:10.440 for Kamala Harris, where they won't even say, for example, that media research center study that we

00:22:18.160 referenced earlier saying ABC is 100 percent positive coverage. One of the other things that

00:22:22.720 they found is that they never refer to her as liberal. And, you know, I've noticed in all of

00:22:28.500 Kamala Harris's ads that she seems to really be appealing to really like white, rust belt, moderate

00:22:37.620 Americans, which is really interesting. I think that's also why she picked Tim Walls, which now that I see

00:22:43.560 the whole picture from her perspective, I do think that that was the right pick, a smart pick for her.

00:22:50.120 And so it's interesting. I really think that she is appealing hard to the white, Christian, moderate,

00:22:59.480 even right leaning voter who is tired of Donald Trump. And the media is helping her by not saying

00:23:06.640 that she was literally the furthest left senator when she was in the Senate, even next to Bernie Sanders,

00:23:11.920 not talking about her stance on immigration and abortion, but really fundamentally trying to

00:23:19.080 gaslight everyone into believing that she's like a center candidate when she's not at all.

00:23:24.480 Oh, no, she's not. And I think the reason that you could pick somebody like a Tim Walls,

00:23:31.120 you have to understand that fundamentally, and this is a generalization, so it's not every specific one,

00:23:38.360 but fundamentally people like her and people like Tim Walls, see, they know they're not going to be

00:23:45.360 held accountable by the majority of the media. So lying and not telling the whole truth is not an

00:23:52.020 issue for them. She knew that even though he was super liberal, he looks like a dad, right? He looks

00:23:58.940 like a dad. He looks like a little league coach or football coach, whatever he was. And he talks like

00:24:03.860 that, right? Now, it's all a scam, okay? It's all a scam because you should look at his actions. But

00:24:10.160 see, we don't focus on people's actions. We focus on how they make us feel, which is totally,

00:24:17.440 totally wrong, which is exactly what happened under Hitler, right? Is that people didn't look at what

00:24:24.900 he was, what they, what the Nazi party was doing from 1928 or 29, whenever he came into power

00:24:32.060 to when war broke out. And all of these things were happening right under their nose, but he made

00:24:37.720 them feel good because they had been abused in World War I after the Treaty of Versailles. They

00:24:43.120 had a lot of restrictions put on them. And so they were looking for national pride. And when he was out

00:24:48.740 in the public, that's what he was saying. And nobody was looking behind the curtain, right? Almost like

00:24:53.520 the Wizard of Oz type thing. And that's what's happening here.

00:24:56.880 To be fair, I do think voters in a lot of different kinds of countries on both sides of the aisle

00:25:01.880 do vote based on how a candidate makes them feel and not only on the policies. We shouldn't do that.

00:25:10.100 But even going back to Nixon v. Kennedy in the first televised debate, I think the fact that Kennedy

00:25:16.280 was attractive and Nixon looked like he was sick, it really helped Kennedy. It's just, it's PR,

00:25:23.140 it's marketing, it's advertising. And I actually do think Trump could be a very likable, feel good

00:25:29.800 candidate. But of course, the media makes it very difficult when all they portray Trump as is angry

00:25:37.160 and vengeful. And so he can't get out of his own way sometimes. But you know, like I was, I was

00:25:44.000 thinking, this is kind of terrible to say, but really Republicans should have a better PR and marketing

00:25:50.440 campaign and reputation than they do. I had a horrible interaction with this older lady on an

00:25:57.540 airplane the other day. She was, she was so grumpy and our baby was doing nothing wrong. And yet when

00:26:06.980 my husband was walking our baby, just like down the aisle, holding her of the plane, this lady lashed

00:26:12.500 out at him and said, get it away from me, get it away from me. It was a horrible experience. And it

00:26:17.780 was so weird. But I was thinking, I was like, I know exactly who she's voting for. I know exactly

00:26:23.980 who she's voting for. And everyone else knows who she's voting for. And really, that's like the

00:26:29.880 reputation of a lot of people who vote Democrat is angry, bitter people. And whenever I'm traveling to

00:26:39.560 like Southern states, and I've got these older, like sweet Southern grandparents on the plane,

00:26:45.520 they're always so sweet to us and so kind. I'm like, wait, why don't we have a better portrayal

00:26:51.680 of Republicans in the media when it's so obvious, at least to me, that Republicans should be the party

00:26:58.920 of the child loving, family loving, nurturing, polite, kind, hospitable, generous people.

00:27:07.000 And I even think that the numbers show that, that Republicans are more likely to give to charity

00:27:12.000 than Democrats are. We're the ones that are running the pro-life pregnancy centers. We're so often the

00:27:17.880 ones running even the church-led organizations to help the vulnerable people. Whereas many times

00:27:24.560 Democrats just want to outsource that compassion to the government. Like we really need a better PR

00:27:30.140 campaign on the Republican side to show that contrast.

00:27:34.040 Yeah. I think part of that alley is that the Republican party has been run by business people

00:27:38.800 for a long time that have been focused almost singularly on the economy, which is super important,

00:27:45.700 no question about it. And we haven't been focusing on our messaging to the everyday American. That's

00:27:51.600 why Donald Trump won in 2016, because he did figure that out. And we haven't done a very good job of that

00:27:59.340 because you're exactly right. We, we take the Republican party takes those people like you're

00:28:04.560 talking about for granted that they're going to vote. So why do I need to appeal to them? They

00:28:08.340 don't, they haven't thought very good about their whole messaging idea. And even president Trump is,

00:28:14.300 uh, has, uh, has advisors like Joe Lasavita, who is just, he is just harsh and crazy.

00:28:21.120 Chris Lasavita. Chris Lasavita, what his name is, whatever his name is. Anyway, he's just a harsh

00:28:25.540 person. And that's, who's kind of been around and, uh, you know, done things like the critic,

00:28:31.540 the criticism of project 2025 is just asinine. You know, when this center for American progress,

00:28:39.300 which is another think tank, but a far left think tank, if it's so tied into the Harris campaign,

00:28:45.500 it's all Obama people. Now who's talking about that? Who's talking about what they're recommending

00:28:50.740 versus what heritage is recommending, right? Which is actually far more radical because

00:28:55.820 whether you agree with every tenant of project 2025, most of it is pretty, it's just mainstream

00:29:02.680 conservative stuff that's been around for decades. I think there's a website that says

00:29:06.300 2025 truth.com or something like that, that kind of, you know, debunks all of those complaints and

00:29:12.800 what have you. But yeah, Trump needs to stop bringing that up. It's an unforced error, honestly.

00:29:17.360 Oh, there's no question about it. Cause the people in his audience, I promise you if they read that,

00:29:20.540 they're going to agree with 90% of it. Yeah. And who is he even appealing to? Who is he going to

00:29:25.100 trying to appeal to? That's right. Yeah. But you know, that's Donald Trump. He's always kind of

00:29:28.160 struggled with that. He secretly wants the New York times and all of those people to really like him.

00:29:32.300 There's no question about it. Yeah. Okay. So going into tonight, he does have, it seems like

00:29:39.600 more of an advantage than he had a month ago. Like the honeymoon period, I do think for the Harris

00:29:44.480 Walls campaign, I do think it has expired and that Trump is really in a position to, for lack of a

00:29:51.520 better term, have a vibe shift and feelings do matter. We don't want them to matter. We want

00:29:56.660 people to vote on policy. But the fact of the matter is some people do vote based on feelings.

00:30:01.260 So the Trump campaign does need to think, how do we change the feelings of the voters who do vote

00:30:06.940 based on feelings? That's true.

00:30:08.540 One thing that Kamala Harris can't say, that Trump can say to kind of create this like likable and

00:30:17.540 relatable persona. He can always pivot back to as a father and grandfather.

00:30:22.400 Oh, no question. That's exactly what I was thinking.

00:30:24.180 As a father and grandfather. She can't say that, you know? And so I think that that's a really

00:30:29.340 personal touch that he can add. And it's not fake. His kids and green kids love him. That's

00:30:34.960 what's appealing about Trump to me.

00:30:37.000 Right. No, I, yeah. But you also have to know too, that there is a chance for him to change and

00:30:43.880 it's better for him to create a vibe. We also have to remember that the media is going to double

00:30:49.980 down between now and the election. And this poll scared the media more than did anybody probably

00:30:55.960 because they're going to double down on this. And they can't abandon Harris. They have nowhere else

00:31:02.500 to go. See, they could abandon Biden, but they can't abandon Harris. They have nowhere else to go.

00:31:08.860 And so it is going to be a really interesting several weeks. I can promise you that.

00:31:18.480 Y'all, I love Range Leather. Their products are top notch. They last forever. They have a lifetime

00:31:26.140 guarantee. They're handmade in Laramie, Wyoming. This is another family owned company. They are

00:31:32.500 Christians and they started this company because they wanted to make high quality leather products

00:31:37.880 that you can buy and keep forever. Or you can give as a really awesome gift that will last a lifetime.

00:31:45.680 They are passionate about their products and they put that passion into every single thing that they

00:31:52.700 make, whether it's belts or wallets or hats. They make these amazing custom hats they have for

00:31:58.780 relatable that I love. And I love their jewelry and their purses. I have several things from range

00:32:05.080 leather that I use all the time because they're so cute and also just really high quality. If you go

00:32:11.380 to range leather.com slash Allie, you'll save 15% off any product. That's range leather.com slash Allie.

00:32:22.540 Okay. Let's talk about this ACLU questionnaire because as we've talked about, Kamala Harris is trying

00:32:31.240 to present herself as independent and you know, that's what Biden did too. They want those people

00:32:38.200 in the swing states. And so that's her strategy. So here's the summary of this. This is reported by

00:32:43.820 CNN as Kamala Harris attempts to pivot to the political center in her presidential campaign. CNN

00:32:48.280 recently reported on a 2019 questionnaire from the ACLU, which spots spotlights her support for radical

00:32:55.000 left-wing causes such as taxpayer funded gender. Okay. This is like, this is such a weird dystopian

00:33:01.540 sentence. This is what Kamala Harris supports according to CNN. Okay. And the ACLU taxpayer funded

00:33:09.740 gender transition surgeries for detained immigrants and drastically reducing ice operations and funding.

00:33:20.900 So this was a questionnaire that she filled out when she was running for president back in 2019.

00:33:26.720 That's what she says that she supports. And of course, she doesn't believe that crossing the border

00:33:32.020 illegally is even a crime. She wouldn't detain or deport those people. So what's your take on that?

00:33:37.300 Well, the words are the words, right? And they're her words. So you have to believe that those are true.

00:33:43.800 Actually, think about this. When I remember talking to some people before the 2020 election

00:33:50.100 and where people said, well, you know, Joe Biden is really kind of a middle of the road guy. He's not

00:33:58.280 too far left or he's middle of the road guy. And how has he governed? Way, way to the left, correct?

00:34:06.820 Yeah.

00:34:06.960 That's been his policy. Now, Kamala or Kamala, I don't even know, Ms. Harris, she starts out

00:34:15.360 way over here. Everybody, I think, all the data shows that she starts out further left than

00:34:22.660 President Biden did, right? So which way, you think she's going to move to the right or to the left?

00:34:28.760 No, she's going to, those policies that she talked about there are the ones that her values,

00:34:33.420 when she talks about her values, not changing. It's true. Her values are, I want an open border.

00:34:38.840 I want government control of everything, including healthcare. And I want government control of your

00:34:43.560 children. And no parents should be involved. You really, it's really not your money. Remember

00:34:49.560 Obama said, you know, Joe, you didn't build that business. We built it. And she is left of all of

00:34:55.460 that. And so I don't understand how people, including some in our extended family, can look at that

00:35:02.920 and say, Hey, this is what's best for my grandkids. Yeah. I don't understand. I don't understand that

00:35:09.160 either. And you know, when we look at immigration, we talked about this last week when she was

00:35:14.960 district attorney of San Francisco, when she was attorney general of California, she pushed some of

00:35:21.600 the policies that led to the death, the murders of people like Kate Steinle. And of course, I mean,

00:35:28.700 she was border czar when poor Lake and Riley in Athens, Georgia was brutally murdered while she

00:35:34.320 was on a run on a Sunday morning by an illegal Venezuelan alien that was only here because our

00:35:41.400 border is open. And Kamala Harris oversaw that. And she wants people to believe now that she has the

00:35:47.840 best interest of America at heart. And this whole border situation with the border bill that said

00:35:54.040 5,000 people could come over, you know, a day and average. Well, people didn't realize. And after,

00:36:02.120 if it got above that, then we're going to shut it down. Well, that's 2 million people, right?

00:36:06.260 That's automatically saying 2 million people each year can come over. Okay. And you're talking about

00:36:11.660 the legislation that Congress wrote up that it didn't end up passing, right? Because it didn't

00:36:17.200 get, it didn't go through the Senate, but people said, but that's a talking point by Democrats to

00:36:21.780 say, well, we've come up with a comprehensive border security bill that Republicans didn't want.

00:36:26.320 And you're saying, yeah, that's why. That's a lie. It wasn't comprehensive. It was only more open

00:36:31.520 borders is all it was. And, um, it was throwing money at a problem, which Congress is noted to do.

00:36:38.400 Yeah. Especially Democrats. And, uh, and it didn't have anything to do with securing the border

00:36:42.620 first. So that's just, uh, that's a lie. And she, she is, as she's proven, she, you know,

00:36:48.400 she hadn't been to Europe and she hadn't been to the border. Yeah. So here's what she said. I mean,

00:36:53.140 just so radical on abortion, gender immigration, while she was Senator, while she was attorney

00:36:58.300 general of California, like her track record is so frightening. So this is according to that ACLU

00:37:05.800 survey. Harris was asked if as president, she would use executive authority to ensure that

00:37:11.080 transgender and non-binary people who rely on the state for medical care, including those in prison

00:37:15.940 and including, including those in immigration detention will have access to comprehensive

00:37:20.380 treatment associated with gender transition, including all necessary surgical care. She answered,

00:37:26.280 yes. That's why as attorney general, I pushed the California department of corrections and

00:37:30.760 rehabilitation to provide gender transition surgery. Okay. So we are talking about men who

00:37:37.440 decide, you know what, the women's prison over there, that's a lot cushier. I could maybe not

00:37:41.680 have to deal with this violence over here. And this is not a hyperbolic example. This actually happens.

00:37:46.680 They can go through chemical castration. They can get on hormones, be transferred to the women's

00:37:51.500 prison, which already happens in California, Washington, all of these liberal States. And even if

00:37:57.620 they don't get any kind of surgery, so they are fully intact males, they can be housed with a

00:38:02.840 vulnerable woman. There are women in women's prison in these liberal States who have been raped and

00:38:08.700 impregnated by these men who say that they're women. That's what Kamala Harris stands for. And she says,

00:38:13.640 not only does she stand for that, but I want your tax dollars, your hard earned money to pay for men to

00:38:19.840 be placed in women's prisons and to assault the most vulnerable women in our population in prison.

00:38:25.140 That's what Kamala Harris, the moderate stands for.

00:38:28.240 It is just irrational to even think someone could say that this is okay. And therefore I support that.

00:38:35.660 But that's what, that's what, that's what they've done in California. That's where she's from. That's

00:38:39.740 what she supports. And again, it always, it goes down, not just to the prisons, down to the children.

00:38:45.040 You know, she supports not having parents notified, uh, by the teachers. If the, if the,

00:38:51.800 if the child, you know, says they're confused. Yep. And that can lead to, uh, that can lead to a

00:38:59.180 parent losing custody of their child, which has happened multiple times. We've had those parents

00:39:03.360 on this podcast. I mean, you can bet your bottom dollar Kamala Harris is going to weaponize the

00:39:08.240 DOJ to accomplish everything that she wants to accomplish on that question about that. That's,

00:39:12.960 that's for sure going to happen. Not even that that's even before we get to the economy,

00:39:17.940 right. And inflation and all those types of things that it's just, it's just been crazy

00:39:22.540 under her watch. Okay. Y'all let me tell you about covenant eyes. Did you know that there is

00:39:32.660 an epidemic happening right now, spreading right now among young women, even young women in the

00:39:39.500 church. And it is pornography. We think of this as only like a man's battle, but there's this

00:39:46.060 2016 Barna study that found that one in three Christian women were struggling with pornography

00:39:52.300 use. Unfortunately, it's just ubiquitous. It's everywhere. And this is something that young

00:39:57.520 men and women are having to battle against. And we are excited to share a brand new resource

00:40:04.560 for women by women. It's called arise arise is a 21 day video series from covenant eyes designed

00:40:12.380 specifically for Christian women. It's a resource to help women overcome porn addiction and begin

00:40:18.640 their journey to sexual healing. You can join a safe, confidential community of women where your

00:40:23.840 story and struggle matter. You'll find hope and freedom and the tools to combat this addiction.

00:40:29.940 Go to arise for women.com. It's a free resource from covenant eyes arise for women.com.

00:40:36.520 Of course, the economy is a sore point, I think for Harris as it should be. And let's talk about that

00:40:47.340 when it comes to, I mean, it's under her watch, as you said, she's been in the white house for the

00:40:51.700 past four years. What specifically has the Harris Biden administration done to make inflation so bad?

00:41:00.820 Well, what they've done, the first thing they did is they continued even after COVID to flood the

00:41:09.020 economy with money, meaning that they, you know, once the economy began turning around after COVID,

00:41:16.080 which it had already started doing in 2020, it, uh, they continued to allow people to get

00:41:21.540 unemployment for extended periods of times, right? They increased entitlements, you know, snap benefits,

00:41:28.040 all those types of things. They, so they like $6 trillion is what the deficit, they spent more

00:41:34.400 than they took in by 6 trillion. Now, if any of the families of the people that are listening today

00:41:40.220 spend, you know, even 20% more than what they take in, they're going to go bankrupt, right?

00:41:46.780 But yet they don't have, there's no accountability for doing that. So what happened with that is,

00:41:53.260 is the, the, uh, the supply chain and all those types of things that initially helped, uh, prices

00:42:01.160 go up. They just were able to stay up because the extra money that was in the economy at the time,

00:42:07.400 for example, and I brought a couple, I want to make a couple of examples for you because I looked this

00:42:12.460 up in 2019, the price of milk was $3 today. It's $4 and 44 cents. That's 46% increase, 46%,

00:42:23.240 bread, $2 and 17 cents for a loaf, $3 and 49 cents is the average today, 60% increase.

00:42:31.580 Hamburger meat, just a pound of hamburger, $3.81, $5 and 80 cents today. Yeah. 50, 50%.

00:42:38.200 And that's not even like the organic. No, this is just your average basic. And they talk about wages

00:42:43.560 going up since they've been in wages have gone up 16%. But when this type of stuff goes up 50,

00:42:51.460 60%, you're actually going backwards. In fact, the, the best one that I have is that I brought a

00:42:56.720 prop today. Kind of reminds me of Carl Rose, that little board he did, but Carl couldn't write this

00:43:02.820 small. So in 2019, this dozen eggs, just like this dollar and 53 cents for a dozen. Okay. Now I don't

00:43:13.080 think the egg has changed much since 2019. Pretty much the same thing. Would you agree with that?

00:43:17.940 I think so. But today that same dozen eggs is $3 and eight cents. Wow. And I don't think the

00:43:24.960 chickens are getting paid more, you know, I mean, it's just the inflation of pumping money into the

00:43:31.840 economy cause it. That's why the fed had to, had to put the brakes on that by raising interest rates.

00:43:37.760 And so they, they, they caused all of this and then they raised interest rates so that people

00:43:43.460 couldn't afford things. It basically forced them not to be able to buy more. Right. Yeah. Which

00:43:48.520 was totally crazy. And now it's gone too far because, uh, what did they do? Overstate the

00:43:53.460 jobs report by 800,000 new jobs. They, they said, they said they had created 800,000 more new jobs than

00:44:00.680 they did this year. I mean, it's crazy. Tell me about that because that's a talking point. A few talking

00:44:07.200 points that I hear from the left is, well, they inherited such a bad economy because of Donald

00:44:14.200 Trump. 1.4% inflation when he left. So they say they, they inherited such a disaster for Donald

00:44:19.500 Trump. They've tried to clean it up. It's, I've even heard, this is a great economic recovery.

00:44:25.220 Inflation has gone down and the Biden administration created way more jobs than the Trump administration

00:44:31.200 did. Well, let's go back to the inflation thing for just a minute. Cause I want to remind people

00:44:35.140 this $3 and 8 cents. Okay. When they say inflation is now at 3%, all that means instead of it being

00:44:43.040 $3 and 8 cents, it's not going back to $1.53. It's going to go up 3% from here. So when they

00:44:50.600 say inflation is under control, that's after it had already gone up in the price of an egg,

00:44:55.020 a hundred percent, it's not going backwards now. And then, so they, they say they created all these

00:45:00.420 jobs, but just this year on their own government agency had to come out a week or two ago and say

00:45:07.140 year to date, we overstated the number of jobs we created by 800,000 jobs. That is a lot. I mean,

00:45:15.000 that is a, if that would have been on the Republican side, there would be hearings going on that and

00:45:19.940 investigations and criminal charges and stuff like that. Yeah. Okay. So also one thing that people

00:45:28.120 don't mention when they say all this job creation, the inherited bad economy by Biden is they completely

00:45:34.900 ignore COVID and the disaster that COVID caused and the lost jobs and the economic turmoil that we

00:45:41.780 were in because of COVID. I think I read that something like, and I could be wrong on this,

00:45:46.420 but somewhere in the 60 to 75% number, the jobs that they're claiming they created were people going

00:45:53.020 back to work. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? So that's not, that's not growth in an economy,

00:45:57.380 right? That's not, you know, that's like me taking $2 from you and then giving you $1.50 back and

00:46:03.080 saying, I gave you $1.50, right? It doesn't, it doesn't work like that. It's in a lot of it is

00:46:08.020 like, it has nothing to do with anything that Biden has done. You know, a lot of moms, for example,

00:46:12.940 they started working from home. They took a part-time job, they stopped working and maybe their kid for

00:46:17.880 two years was homeschooled or was home from preschool. Their kid's in kindergarten now,

00:46:22.700 their kid's back in school. So they're going back to work. That really has nothing to do with

00:46:26.660 Biden's economy being good. It might actually be that they feel like they have to work because of

00:46:31.720 the rising costs and now they need two incomes. That's not necessarily a positive, a positive

00:46:38.740 economic result. No, no, absolutely not. And you know, the other thing too, that people need to

00:46:44.860 understand when Harris talks about, uh, raising the tax on corporations or raising the tax on

00:46:50.000 wealthy people, just remember all of that trickles down. If you, if you raise the cost of you doing

00:46:57.620 business, all right, or for this company doing business, then if somebody imposes an increased

00:47:03.660 cost on you, you're going to either figure out how to raise the price to the consumers or your

00:47:08.900 advertisers or whatever, because you're not going to just freely, Oh yeah, will you raise the price on me?

00:47:13.960 So I'll just make less money. It doesn't work like that. When you raise the price on corporations,

00:47:18.380 they're going to pass that on down as much as they can to the end user.

00:47:22.440 And it's not just people think, Oh, when there's an increase on corporate tax, it's just the CEO

00:47:28.600 that's going to be affected and CEOs make too much money. In fact, it's not going to affect him at all

00:47:34.400 or her at all. Probably. Yeah. It affects the employees. Yeah. It is a, it is a cost. It's a rising of

00:47:41.920 cost on the everyday American. Yeah. And it's a, all about, um, taking money from one group of people

00:47:51.080 and giving it to the other. That's like her proposal to give a first time home buyers free

00:47:56.040 $25,000. Yeah. Only though, if you're a first generation homeowner and you know what, that's,

00:48:02.900 that's, that's virtue signaling that unless you are a minority, forget about it, buddy.

00:48:11.160 Yeah. So that's what you, that's what she's trying to accomplish.

00:48:13.540 Where do you think the 25,000 is coming from? Yeah. It's coming from you and me. And I don't

00:48:18.140 care if you make $50,000 or 400,000, she's taking some of your tax money and giving it to somebody

00:48:24.720 else. Right. And if you want to give it to somebody else, that's your choice. Okay. There are plenty of,

00:48:29.280 you can give to Habitat for Humanity. Yeah. If that's what you want to do, but it's your choice.

00:48:33.460 Yeah. It's not forced on you. And so say you've got someone because, okay, theoretically,

00:48:38.160 say you've got a couple, they're first generation home buyers, but they're doing pretty well. You

00:48:42.860 know, they've, they're making $400,000 a year. You've got this other couple over here. They're

00:48:48.940 struggling to get by. Maybe they're making a total of $70,000 a year, but their parents owned a house.

00:48:55.780 They really could use more help. But instead what's happening is that Harris is saying,

00:49:01.540 I'm going to give $25,000 to this couple over here, right? Because they're first generation,

00:49:06.680 first time home buyers, even though they're making more money. And, but not this couple

00:49:11.400 over here because their parents happen to own a house and I'm going to take money from this couple

00:49:16.600 and give it to this couple over here, even though they're making more money. That is so-called

00:49:22.360 equity. That is social justice and it's not just. But you know what else it is? It's class warfare.

00:49:28.960 I mean, it's pitting people against people. That's not what America is about. Your mom and I went to

00:49:34.100 see the Reagan movie last night and man, it's such a reminder of what our vision should be for America

00:49:40.860 and what a great communicator and, and actually very, uh, ardent policy person that he was. Right.

00:49:51.200 And that he just believed in the people, right? He believed in the people. And also he was a person

00:49:59.120 of very strong faith. He was. And of course, that's one of the areas that we've kind of gotten

00:50:04.140 away from. We just allow, we just want to go along. Well, let's just go along with this and it'll be

00:50:08.220 okay. Again, exactly what happened. Yeah. You know, in Germany and we're not going to do that because

00:50:14.660 people like you and others around and, and the everyday American, we're not going to do that.

00:50:19.820 So I don't know what's going to happen in this election. Uh, we have the opportunity to,

00:50:24.800 for the good guys to win. But even if it does, even if they don't, we're not going to lay down

00:50:29.840 and say, okay, I tried and we failed. No, we're going to keep fighting for what, for,

00:50:33.700 cause it's not about fighting for me. It's fighting for you and for those children of yours

00:50:39.460 and Justin's kids and everybody else's kids. That's what it's about. And that's what we're

00:50:43.280 going to do. And at the end, we will win. Like Ronald Reagan said, when George Shultz asked him,

00:50:48.620 he was secretary of state, we need a better messaging on Russia. We win, they lose. Ultimately,

00:50:53.620 that's what's going to happen. Amen. Yes. I love Reagan. Everyone should read his

00:50:58.460 autobiography in addition to seeing that scene in his own words. Is that the one you're talking

00:51:03.100 about? It's called an American life. Oh, I read that. Yeah. Yes. And it's, it's very good.

00:51:08.020 And he was, yes, a man of faith. He was very deeply pro-life. Um, he also was a total life guy.

00:51:16.020 He loved his life. And I just think that that's very charming. And I read, I read a book by her

00:51:22.900 about him and their love story and the letters that they wrote to each other. And I just thought

00:51:28.780 that that was so nice. Yeah. It was really sweet. It makes you nostalgic for a different,

00:51:33.340 even though I wasn't alive during, uh, his presidency, but you're right. It's not like

00:51:38.160 hope is lost and we shouldn't think that it is. Um, okay. Last thing, even though that

00:51:43.500 on that one, one more thing about Reagan, sorry. Uh, so when you walk, when you go

00:51:47.340 the movie folks, there, a lot of it is, or a good amount of it is filmed at the ranch

00:51:52.400 they had in California. Um, was it Rancho de Cielo? Yeah. And mom and I had the ability

00:51:58.840 to, which is not open to the public. Okay. To go into the house they lived in and it looks

00:52:06.580 exactly like it did in the movie. And that's how it's really cool. That is cool. Uh, but we

00:52:11.140 were able to do that. We had a picture made in there and that was just a really cool thing.

00:52:14.920 Yeah. It's a, it was a really cool type of thing to be able to actually get in the house

00:52:19.420 and they, they're very modestly. The house really is probably a thousand square feet

00:52:23.000 or 1200, something like that. But anyway, uh, it's really, really cool and sad towards

00:52:28.520 the end, obviously. But, uh, you know, he was also some man that was humble because

00:52:33.040 he, he went to the American people. You remember? And wrote the letter that, that he had

00:52:37.900 Alzheimer's and he was ending the, entering the last phase of his life. I mean, it was

00:52:42.860 a really cool thing. Yeah. I remember when he died. Yeah. That was early 2000s, right?

00:52:48.020 I had it written on the side of my golf cap for a long time. Oh. June 5th, 2004. Yeah. Wow.

00:52:57.760 Last sponsor for the day is Preborn. So many of you guys ask me, how can you be involved in

00:53:02.880 the pro-life movement? How can you help save babies and serve moms while getting involved

00:53:07.640 in with pre-born is a really great way to do that. This is a large network of clinics

00:53:12.680 that provides these free resources, including free sonograms for pregnant women who are in

00:53:17.940 need. They save thousands of lives every year by providing these sonograms because a mom

00:53:23.040 is so much more likely to choose life when she actually sees the humanity of her unborn child

00:53:27.780 on that sonogram screen. A free sonogram costs $28. If you go to preborn.com slash Allie and you

00:53:34.960 donate just $28, you are helping save a life by offering this free sonogram, but whatever you can

00:53:41.320 donate, maybe it's $5,000, maybe it's $5. You can help Preborn serve these moms and babies. Go to

00:53:48.960 preborn.com slash Allie to donate. That's preborn.com slash Allie.

00:53:57.780 I want to end on, even though that would be a great exclamation mark to end on, I want to

00:54:03.760 say one more thing about the debate tonight. And advice that you would give Trump, I have my own

00:54:10.600 thoughts, advice that you would give Trump on a question that I think is sure to come up,

00:54:17.020 gun control. They're going to tell the horrible story, what happened in Georgia. They're especially

00:54:21.280 going to tell it because that's a swing state. And I know that sounds cynical, but that's how the media

00:54:26.060 is functioning. So they're going to say, what do you think about gun control? What do you think

00:54:32.240 about common sense gun legislation? And they're going to use that story to question him about it.

00:54:38.140 What do you think he should say? Well, I think he should start by saying, I am 100% in support

00:54:45.040 of the second amendment, which allows our citizens to have the right to bear arms. I think they should

00:54:51.600 be able to do that. However, I do believe that there are people in our country who shouldn't be

00:54:58.800 allowed, who should have more control. And that's obviously convicted felons. That's people maybe

00:55:04.500 that have a mental issue, a challenge that would not allow them to make the best decisions.

00:55:10.020 Um, and I would say that we need to do whatever we can to provide safety to our kids and our families.

00:55:19.480 And, but also I'm not going to take the right away from a law abiding citizen to protect themselves and

00:55:27.420 their family. I'm never going to be in favor of that. Cause at the end of the day, if we do that,

00:55:32.340 the only people left with the guns are the government and the criminals.

00:55:35.940 But I repeat myself. Um, I think that he could, if he could pull it off, I think it would be great

00:55:46.100 if he started out by saying in a concise way, a few weeks ago, I, a few weeks ago, God spared my life.

00:55:56.240 I was almost assassinated by a young man with a gun, a bullet grazed my ear by the grace of God.

00:56:02.860 I'm still here. That was a life changing experience for me. I know better than most people,

00:56:09.240 the potential danger that guns pose. And then I think he could transition into saying,

00:56:19.460 as you said, the support for the second amendment, the importance of law abiding people being able to

00:56:24.820 exercise that right of self-defense, and then also emphasize his desire to do whatever it takes

00:56:34.580 to end school shootings, to protect children, to upgrade the security apparatus that protects

00:56:43.940 children in these schools. If there is a law that comes across his desk that will put an end to school

00:56:50.640 shootings that does not compromise the right of law abiding people to defend them, to defend

00:56:56.760 themselves, then he may be in support of that. What is not a solution is, as you said, confiscating

00:57:04.420 the guns of law abiding people who want to protect their families. And that is the only solution that

00:57:10.340 Kamala Harris has given. That's not a real solution. All that she has proposed is gun confiscation.

00:57:16.100 Raphael Warnock, he is a senator from Georgia. He said just recently in an interview, I think it was with

00:57:23.000 CNN, that he supports Kamala Harris's support of confiscating guns, confiscating what they call assault

00:57:31.940 weapons. That's not a real solution. It's not going to happen. It violates the second amendment. So if you

00:57:36.880 are serious about ending school shootings, bring all of your solutions to the table. But gun grabbing is not a real

00:57:42.560 solution. And that's the only solution that she's given. So she must not be serious about ending school

00:57:46.940 shootings. So I think he can go personal. I think he can talk about, again, as a father and grandfather, wants to

00:57:55.280 protect those kids. But he is not going to violate the rights of you and me protecting ourselves. Because guess

00:58:03.060 what? No one is safer when you and I don't have the right to defend ourselves. It's not. We're more vulnerable. Your

00:58:09.540 kids are more vulnerable. That's exactly right. So she is the candidate of disorder and chaos. He is the

00:58:15.680 candidate, should be, of order and peace. And I think that's the contrast that they have to paint.

00:58:21.460 I think they do. And I think they do have to paint that. And I hope that they will. Although, if you

00:58:27.480 could back out today, President Trump, back out. No, I'm joking on that. At this point, gotta go with it.

00:58:32.460 We gotta go with it. We'll be watching it tonight. Yeah, I'm excited. I'll be here. Blaze TV is doing

00:58:37.620 coverage. I'll be here for the pre-show analysis and giving my thoughts there. So tune into that. I think

00:58:45.400 everyone can go to blazetv.com slash Allie. If you're not a subscriber, use code Allie to subscribe. You get

00:58:51.580 access to all kinds of exclusive content, including our analysis. And then other Blaze hosts will be here after

00:58:57.640 the show, but that's past my bedtime. And so they will be giving you the analysis in my stead. All right, Dad,

00:59:03.480 thank you so much. Is there, do you want to tell people again about your book? Oh, well,

00:59:07.720 Life Lessons from the Little Red Wagon. And the cool thing about it is there's this conference coming

00:59:12.260 up where this book is going to be available. What is it? Called Share the Arrows. Oh, wow. Can you

00:59:17.840 imagine that? That sounds like an amazing conference. There may even be a book package thing that's

00:59:24.180 available for that. Oh, nice. So it could be good. But I think you'll love this book. Especially if you're a

00:59:27.480 VIP ticket holder. Oh, there's no question about that. VIP ticket holders may even, may even,

00:59:32.660 you know, maybe a signed copy available to that. So it's really good. I'd encourage, you know,

00:59:37.100 I know your conference is going to be attended by ladies. Very good book to buy. I think they would

00:59:42.260 enjoy it too. It's got a lot of great stories in there, but also for their husbands or their special

00:59:48.160 other one, their sons, definitely for their sons. Yeah. I think this is a really, really good book for

00:59:53.020 them. Yeah, it is. And you can get it, you can get it at the conference. Yeah. You can get it on

00:59:57.520 Amazon. If you're an audiobook person, you're a busy mom. I like to listen to audiobooks. He read

01:00:02.420 it himself. Yes. And Reagan. And Ronald Reagan also joined in with me. He actually reads part of my

01:00:08.220 book. Yes. Very hard to get that these days. Yes. We'll put a link in the description of this

01:00:12.860 episode. It's really, really good. Okay, dad. Thanks so much. Oh, it's a great time. Thank you.

01:00:23.020 Thank you.
