00:00:30.000 What do you feel in your body when you hear the term white people?

00:00:36.000 I feel like a cringe about it.

00:00:39.000 White, straight, cisgender, and it's the top of the pile.

00:00:42.000 I'm on the top of the pile.

00:00:43.000 It's me.

00:00:45.000 Can I just propose a toast?

00:00:46.000 Raise a glass if you're racist.

00:00:47.000 To racist.

00:00:50.000 That was really weird.

00:00:51.000 Don't deny that you're racist.

00:00:53.000 Try not to be racist, but also don't realize that you're...

00:00:55.000 Until we're willing to talk about these things, healing can't really begin.

00:00:58.000 My daughter's four years old.

00:00:59.000 She's still watching Disney movies and choosing a white princess.

00:01:02.000 Have you talked to her about that?

00:01:04.000 All the time.

00:01:04.000 Is racism inherent to whiteness?

00:01:07.000 Yes.

00:01:07.000 Yeah, probably.

00:01:09.000 Joining us now is Matt, certified DEI expert.

00:01:13.000 Did race exist as a reality before?

00:01:15.000 We made race exist.

00:01:16.000 Does that make sense?

00:01:17.000 It does make sense.

00:01:18.000 What do you mean?

00:01:19.000 What you're doing is you're stretching out of your whiteness.

00:01:22.000 This is more for you than this for you.

00:01:23.000 Am I racist?

00:01:25.000 Now streaming only on Daily Wire Plus.

00:01:28.000 Rated PG-13.

00:01:30.000 Joining us on the line is Matt Walsh.

00:01:33.000 He, of course, is the star of Am I Racist?

00:01:36.000 The biggest documentary of the last 10 years.

00:01:38.000 It is now streaming exclusively at Daily Wire.

00:01:41.000 Plus, Matt Walsh, thanks for joining the program.

00:01:42.000 Great to talk to you.

00:01:43.000 Hey, Ben.

00:01:45.000 Thanks for having me.

00:01:46.000 So it's been a hell of a ride for you.

00:01:48.000 It's an amazing documentary.

00:01:50.000 Obviously, your newfound success has made you much, much more famous, so I'm not sure how you go undercover in the future.

00:01:56.000 But tell us about why you're excited that AIR, Am I Racist, is now available at Daily Wire+.

00:02:01.000 What are people going to be able to see behind the paywall if they weren't able to see in the theaters, if they already saw it?

00:02:05.000 Yeah, I mean, well, the big thing, of course, first of all, is the movie itself, which, look, you know, there's many people who wanted to see it in theaters.

00:02:12.000 They weren't able to see it.

00:02:14.000 And so this is your chance to watch it.

00:02:16.000 And even if you did watch it in theaters, you know, I like to think that this is a movie that rewards second and third viewings.

00:02:23.000 As someone who's seen it probably 20 times, I think it does get better with age.

00:02:28.000 On top of that, we've got breakdowns of different scenes where we talk about behind the scenes, what went into making the film, what went into setting up the scenarios that I find myself in the movie, which is the number one question I get all the time is, How did you get into the room?

00:02:46.000 How did you get that person on screen?

00:02:48.000 How did all that work?

00:02:49.000 And I give as much information as I can possibly give in some of these behind-the-scenes breakdowns.

00:02:54.000 And we also have some deleted scenes as well that weren't able to make it into the final cut of the film.

00:03:00.000 So there's a lot there if you go to dailywire.com and get signed up and you can find it all there.

00:03:07.000 So, Matt, am I racist?

00:03:08.000 I think the message was relevant, obviously, a few weeks ago when it came out in theaters.

00:03:11.000 It's even more relevant now, given the fact that Kamala Harris is running dead even with Donald Trump in many of the polls right now.

00:03:16.000 And her entire campaign is about diversity, equity, and inclusion.

00:03:20.000 There's an article from the New York Times that came out late last week explaining that as vice president, one of her first acts was to scan intelligence reports for sexist language.

00:03:29.000 Why don't you talk a little bit about the importance of am I racist and showing all your friends am I racist in the run-up to the election?

00:03:35.000 Yeah, I mean, the timing on this really—the thing is, it's interesting because when we came up with the idea for the film two years ago, only a few months after What His Woman came out, we assumed that when the election came, it would be, you know, at that point, Joe Biden on his marionette strings that they're walking to the election.

00:03:56.000 We didn't realize, of course, that Kamala Harris would be the nominee.

00:04:00.000 We didn't know that when the movie came out, it would be right in the middle of an election where there's an actual DEI candidate.

00:04:05.000 But that's the way that it worked out.

00:04:08.000 So I think that the timing for this film, both the hit theaters and now the streaming platform, couldn't be better.

00:04:13.000 Because this really is, it's not just a slur to say that Kamala Harris is a DEI candidate.

00:04:18.000 She is, in fact, the first DEI candidate in the history of this country in that she's a presidential nominee who was put in that position, not voted into it purely because she checked demographic boxes.

00:04:32.000 And she's obviously not qualified for the position that she's in.

00:04:35.000 Nobody even really wants her there, even on her own side.

00:04:37.000 I mean, that is DEI down to a T. And that is what we're exposing in the film and also mocking ruthlessly and mercilessly, which is...

00:04:47.000 Which I think is the best strategy against this madness, in my opinion.

00:04:54.000 You know, folks, Am I Racist?

00:04:55.000 Again, it's the best performing documentary of the last 10 years.

00:04:58.000 These things don't come cheap.

00:04:59.000 It was a very expensive documentary to make.

00:05:01.000 It's expensive to get it in theaters.

00:05:02.000 It is difficult to do it.

00:05:04.000 It took enormous amounts of time and sacrifice on Matt's part.

00:05:06.000 And we do need your help in being able to put out material like Am I Racist with people like Matt Walsh.

00:05:11.000 This is just another reason.

00:05:12.000 You should head on over to dailywire.com right now and subscribe, Daily Wire Plus, and use code DEI and you will get a discount.

00:05:20.000 of 35% when you do on your annual subscription.

00:05:23.000 It is available today, like today, right now at Daily Wire Plus.

00:05:26.000 Matt, once again, congratulations on the film.

00:05:28.000 It's an amazing piece of work.

00:05:29.000 Any final words for the audience?

00:05:32.000 Yeah, I think you touched on it, that to make movies like this, it's a major investment, it's a huge risk, and we're able to do it because of the support from the audience, and we want to keep doing this, because this is what making culture is.

00:05:46.000 If you want to fight for the culture, you have to be making art, making entertainment, making films, and we can only do that with the audience's support, so...

00:05:54.000 That's why you got to go and get subscribed.

00:05:56.000 And we will reward that with, I think, a really entertaining and fun and important film.

00:06:04.000 Folks, once again, go check it out.

00:06:06.000 Daily Wire Plus right now.

00:06:08.000 Matt, thanks so much.

00:06:08.000 Really appreciate it.

00:06:09.000 Thanks.

00:06:10.000 Well, folks, we are now one week and one day away from the biggest election of our lifetime, the 2024 election.

00:06:17.000 And Donald Trump is not only closing fast, he is closing big.

00:06:20.000 So, last night Donald Trump held a rally at Madison Square Garden.

00:06:23.000 He packed the house.

00:06:24.000 20,000 people showed up.

00:06:26.000 There were tens of thousands of people in the streets outside.

00:06:28.000 No real signs of protest.

00:06:30.000 It was kind of a shocking sight for sure.

00:06:33.000 The state of the race right now, despite all the enthusiasm, anybody who tells you that they know exactly how this race is going to go is lying to you at this point.

00:06:39.000 Anybody who says that it is a foregone conclusion that Trump wins or that Harris wins is not telling you the truth.

00:06:44.000 I can have a gut feeling.

00:06:45.000 You can have a gut feeling.

00:06:46.000 And those gut feelings count for pretty much nothing.

00:06:48.000 That is also the opinion that Of Nate Silver, who says that his gut right now is that Donald Trump is ahead.

00:06:53.000 He says, I don't think you should put any value whatsoever on anyone's gut, including mine.

00:06:57.000 Instead, you should resign yourself to the fact a 50-50 forecast really does mean 50-50.

00:07:01.000 And when you look at the polling right now, literally every swing state is within the margin of error.

00:07:06.000 I'm looking at the RealClearPolitics polling average.

00:07:08.000 Michigan is a dead heat.

00:07:10.000 Trump plus 0.1.

00:07:12.000 Pennsylvania, a dead heat, Trump plus 0.5.

00:07:15.000 Wisconsin, dead heat, Trump plus 0.3.

00:07:18.000 Arizona is a little bit more ahead, 1.5.

00:07:20.000 North Carolina, Trump plus 0.8.

00:07:22.000 Georgia, Trump plus 2.3.

00:07:23.000 So he is closing and he is, in fact, closing better than she is at this point.

00:07:28.000 Does that mean that he's inevitably going to win?

00:07:30.000 No.

00:07:31.000 And for those who are saying that the early voting statistics right now show Republicans doing better than expected, that's true.

00:07:37.000 But it's unclear at this point whether that is cannibalizing day of voting.

00:07:40.000 So, again, the reason I'm sounding all these notes of caution is just because I think we should all be realistic that every vote matters right now.

00:07:47.000 So if you have not gone out and voted yet, you absolutely should.

00:07:50.000 This is indeed an incredibly tight election.

00:07:53.000 Sometimes one campaign gets a feeling of momentum and people start to think, OK, well, if I stay home, no biggie, because my candidate's going to win anyway.

00:08:00.000 That is a recipe for defeat.

00:08:02.000 This election is, in fact, by every polling data available, a dead heat.

00:08:07.000 And that means that every little bit counts at this point in time.

00:08:11.000 With that said, if you look at the behavior of the two campaigns, it is pretty clear who both campaigns think is ahead.

00:08:17.000 Donald Trump believes he's ahead and Kamala Harris seems to believe that Donald Trump is ahead.

00:08:21.000 So, as mentioned last night, Donald Trump holds this gigantic rally at Madison Square Garden.

00:08:25.000 And, of course, any time a Republican holds a rally at a place where one time there were Nazis, that means that it's supposed to be a throwback to a Nazi rally.

00:08:35.000 This is the line that's been used by the left all day, every day.

00:08:39.000 They've been doing this in advance of the rally, in fact.

00:08:41.000 So, for example, Tim Walls suggested just yesterday that the Madison Square Garden rally by Donald Trump, which was basically just a redo of the RNC, except Elon Musk also showed up.

00:08:51.000 He said that that was just like a Hitler rally.

00:08:53.000 Here's what he had to say yesterday.

00:08:55.000 Donald Trump has descended into madness over the last few weeks.

00:08:59.000 And I think some of you don't miss on this.

00:09:01.000 Go do your Google on this.

00:09:02.000 Donald Trump's got this big rally going at Madison Square Garden.

00:09:06.000 There's a direct parallel to a big rally that happened in the mid-1930s at Madison Square Garden.

00:09:12.000 And don't think that he doesn't know for one second exactly what they're doing there.

00:09:18.000 Okay, well that's a little bit weird because as it turns out, lots of parties have had events at Madison Square Garden.

00:09:23.000 In fact, the New York Knicks are apparently the Nazis because they play at Madison Square Garden.

00:09:28.000 Bill Clinton actually did a 1992 Democratic presidential nomination at Madison Square Garden.

00:09:35.000 Jimmy Carter did the same thing at Madison Square Garden in 1980.

00:09:38.000 George W. Bush did it in 2004 at Madison Square Garden.

00:09:41.000 So apparently these were all Nazi rallies.

00:09:43.000 And this is part of the latest desperation play by the Kamala campaign.

00:09:47.000 And the desperation is just reeking from this campaign.

00:09:50.000 Reeking from this campaign.

00:09:52.000 The inestimably stupid Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez, she's saying the same thing.

00:09:56.000 She went on MSNBC this morning and declared that this was indeed a Nazi rally.

00:10:01.000 There's a couple of things.

00:10:02.000 As you mentioned, this was a hate rally.

00:10:06.000 This was not just a presidential rally.

00:10:08.000 This was also not just a campaign rally.

00:10:11.000 I think it's very important for people to understand that these are mini January 6 rallies.

00:10:16.000 These are mini Stop the Steal rallies.

00:10:19.000 These are rallies to prime an electorate into rejecting the results of an election if it doesn't go the way that they want.

00:10:26.000 Because Donald Trump and that entire cadre of people up on that stage, Stephen Miller, etc., do not respect the law of the United States of America.

00:10:39.000 And they either want to win this election or they are using rhetoric of taking it by force.

00:10:46.000 Well, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, obviously very excited about the possibility of a Trump presidency because then she gets to do her resistance routine again.

00:10:53.000 But this is all part of a broader desperation play by the Kamala Harris campaign to call Trump Hitler.

00:10:59.000 You see, Hitler drank water, Trump drinks water, therefore Trump-Hitler the same.

00:11:04.000 So last week, while I was out, the Harris campaign revved into high gear.

00:11:09.000 Their Trump has a tiny mustache part of the campaign.

00:11:12.000 Kamala Harris actually did a little speech from the vice presidential residence declaring that Donald Trump was Hitler.

00:11:19.000 This in the aftermath of former chief of staff John Kelly coming out and calling Donald Trump a fascist.

00:11:24.000 Here's what she had to say.

00:11:27.000 Yesterday we learned that Donald Trump's former chief of staff, John Kelly, a retired four-star general, confirmed that while Donald Trump was president, he said he wanted generals like Adolf Hitler had.

00:11:40.000 Donald Trump said that because he does not want a military that is loyal to the United States Constitution.

00:11:48.000 He wants a military that is loyal to him.

00:11:54.000 Okay, she's an absurdity.

00:11:56.000 This entire campaign is an absurdity.

00:11:58.000 Meanwhile, the entire Democratic Party is having trouble fending off people who actually hold swastikas at rallies.

00:12:03.000 The pro-Khamas crowd, which desperately wants to be part of the Democratic Party.

00:12:06.000 Kamala Harris can't say boo to those people.

00:12:09.000 So, that's her closing pitch.

00:12:11.000 Her closing pitch is that Donald Trump is some sort of crazed Nazi.

00:12:16.000 And meanwhile, again, Kamala Harris can't even say boo to the Nazis.

00:12:19.000 So Kamala Harris, for example, she was speaking in Michigan, and protesters interrupted her once more about Israel's war against Hamas in Gaza.

00:12:27.000 And she has nothing to say to them.

00:12:28.000 Because when it comes to time to actually speak up against today's Nazis, she wants their votes.

00:12:34.000 We are fighting for America's future and we understand the opportunity we have before us to turn the page on the fear She's being yelled at by these crazy people,

00:12:58.000 and she can never have the sister soldier moment where she just turns to the crazed pro-Hamas goons and says, Israel is right in its war, because that might offend the people who actually sympathize with the pro-Hamas Nazis.

00:13:09.000 So, it takes a lot of gall to suggest what happened at Madison Square Garden last night with some sort of Nazi rally.

00:13:15.000 There were Israeli flags hanging from the rafters.

00:13:18.000 There were tons of Orthodox Jews who shut up.

00:13:20.000 By the way, Orthodox Jews are going to vote for Donald Trump 120%.

00:13:25.000 Orthodox Jews who are not eligible to vote will probably try to vote for Donald Trump.

00:13:29.000 That is how passionate the base is in the community of Jews who care about Israel with regard to Donald Trump.

00:13:35.000 Meanwhile, by the way, a Jew was shot in Chicago by somebody shouting Allahu Akbar over the weekend.

00:13:43.000 And apparently that's not a big national story because, of course, it happened in Chicago.

00:13:46.000 Again, I only point this out because the last-ditch campaign effort by the Harris campaign to suggest that Trump can't be president because he's a Nazi is just plainly ridiculous on his face.

00:13:55.000 And it's not going to dent whatsoever what happened in Madison Square Garden last night.

00:14:00.000 So, Madison Square Garden.

00:14:02.000 Again, it was sort of a redux of the Republican National Convention.

00:14:06.000 Hulk Hogan showed up on stage.

00:14:07.000 Elon showed up on stage.

00:14:08.000 Melania Trump made her first campaign appearance of the entire campaign cycle.

00:14:11.000 Here is Hulk Hogan doing his routine.

00:14:15.000 But today, Trumpomaniacs, the energy in here is something like I've never felt.

00:14:22.000 The energy of all these Trumpomaniacs is the most powerful force in the universe.

00:14:29.000 And today, this is Donald Trump's house, brother.

00:14:42.000 Know something, Trump maniacs?

00:14:43.000 I don't see no stinking Nazis in here.

00:14:49.000 I don't see no stinking domestic terrorists in here.

00:14:54.000 The only thing I see in here are a bunch of hard-working men and women that are real Americans, brother.

00:15:05.000 Again, the entire left can mock this sort of stuff, but the reality is that Donald Trump does not look down on Americans who like, for example, Hulk Hogan and the WWE. Everybody thinks that what Trump does at these rallies is very corny because he has Lee Greenwood singing God Bless the USA and because there are lots of American flags and because he's wearing a hat, the MAGA hat, which has always looked like a family reunion hat from 1996.

00:15:28.000 That is the charm.

00:15:29.000 That is the appeal.

00:15:30.000 And that appeal can't be understood by the More sophisticated set, but it is a very real appeal nonetheless.

00:15:38.000 And of course, Trump has grown his coalition.

00:15:40.000 Elon Musk, who for most of his career was a Democrat, has now declared himself a passionate dark MAGA advocate.

00:15:48.000 Here he was at the rally last night getting an enormous cheer.

00:15:52.000 I mean, at the end of the day, you're being taxed.

00:15:55.000 You're being taxed.

00:15:57.000 All government spending is taxation.

00:16:00.000 So whether it's direct taxation or...

00:16:02.000 All government spending, it either becomes inflation or it's direct taxation.

00:16:06.000 Your money is being wasted and the Department of Government Immigency is going to fix that.

00:16:15.000 We're going to get the government off your back and out of your pocketbook.

00:16:21.000 And then Melania showed up again.

00:16:23.000 She has not been present this entire campaign.

00:16:24.000 And so she showed up on stage to introduce Donald Trump last night.

00:16:27.000 Here she was.

00:16:29.000 For generations, this town has produced America's most fearless leaders, whose mark changed the course of the world.

00:16:41.000 New York City and America needs their magic back.

00:16:48.000 A country of tomorrow that will shape our future and reset expectations for the generations.

00:17:02.000 Envision a wonderful America where the seat of security, prosperity and health are sown once again for benefit of our families.

00:17:18.000 Let us start together with a shared vision that builds on American greatness.

00:17:30.000 Let's size this moment and create a country for tomorrow, the future that we deserve.

00:17:41.000 So, yeah, it's great Melania showed up.

00:17:44.000 And then, of course, Trump showed up and he was classic Trump.

00:17:46.000 Which means that he spoke for a million years.

00:17:48.000 There are a bunch of gems in there.

00:17:50.000 Here he was bashing Kamala Harris last night.

00:17:52.000 Obviously, he's in a very good mood.

00:17:53.000 I mean, Donald Trump thinks he's going to win.

00:17:54.000 Kamala Harris apparently also thinks he's going to win.

00:17:56.000 Here was Trump last night.

00:17:58.000 One thing you have to know is that no matter how good your people are that operate this machinery, it's going to break.

00:18:05.000 And you're going to be out there all by yourself a lot.

00:18:08.000 And you've got to be able to do so.

00:18:10.000 Three weeks ago, she was saying there was only 32 days left, right?

00:18:15.000 And she's reading and like, huh?

00:18:19.000 It's 32 days.

00:18:22.000 And it stopped.

00:18:24.000 And she went this, 32 days.

00:18:28.000 32.

00:18:30.000 32.

00:18:31.000 And I was watching.

00:18:34.000 I said, this isn't pretty.

00:18:37.000 32.

00:18:40.000 She was gone.

00:18:41.000 And then, damn it, it kicked back on.

00:18:45.000 She was gone.

00:18:48.000 Again, this is sort of Trump at his freewheeling best.

00:18:51.000 He's enjoying himself.

00:18:52.000 Here was Donald Trump making a more serious point, however, which was that he actually kept us out of wars, which, of course, is true.

00:18:59.000 Remember crooked Hillary Clinton?

00:19:02.000 Crooked Hillary, oh, she was a beauty during one of our many debates.

00:19:09.000 She said, look at him.

00:19:10.000 Listen to him.

00:19:11.000 He's going to start a war.

00:19:14.000 Listen to his rhetoric.

00:19:16.000 He's going to start a war.

00:19:18.000 I said, no, no, no.

00:19:20.000 My rhetoric is going to keep us out of wars.

00:19:22.000 And that's what happened.

00:19:25.000 Okay, that's true, and that's real, what he is saying right there.

00:19:28.000 Well, of course, Donald Trump is absolutely right.

00:19:30.000 Democrats have been responsible for unleashing a number of disasters across the world, but there are other disasters, too.

00:19:35.000 Natural disasters, those are a reality.

00:19:37.000 From the Maui fires to Hurricane Helene and Milton, we are seeing catastrophic disasters take out entire towns with minimal warning, resulting in lack of basic resources.

00:19:44.000 I get it.

00:19:45.000 We're all wired to think it's not going to happen around me.

00:19:47.000 And then in a blink, you're in survival mode.

00:19:49.000 Being prepared in advance is your best defense against the unexpected.

00:19:51.000 The wellness company's emergency kits completely remove the gatekeeper and subside panic by providing you with a personalized mini pharmacy in the convenience of your own home.

00:19:59.000 Bacterial infections, staph, bite wounds, UTIs, strep throat, respiratory illnesses.

00:20:02.000 You no longer have to be at the mercy of somebody else to help you.

00:20:05.000 You keep a fire extinguisher handy in case of a fire, so it's probably a good idea to have some basic medicines handy in the event you need those.

00:20:11.000 Same mindset, different product.

00:20:13.000 Getting an emergency kit is fully digital, all from the convenience of your couch.

00:20:16.000 You fill out an intake form, a pharmacist reviews and approves it, and then you receive the kits in two weeks.

00:20:19.000 The medical board approved guidebook tells you exactly what to do.

00:20:22.000 This is preparedness simplified.

00:21:47.000 That's ZipRecruiter.com slash Daily Wire.

00:21:50.000 The smartest way to hire.

00:21:52.000 Okay, so the big rip on the Madison Square Garden rally last night, aside from Trump is a Nazi, Is the claim that racist jokes were made by a comedian named Tony Hinchcliffe.

00:22:04.000 Now you remember probably Tony Hinchcliffe from the Tom Brady roast.

00:22:07.000 He actually did probably the best set at the Tom Brady roast.

00:22:09.000 He did a set last night to open the Madison Square Garden rally.

00:22:13.000 And I'll just say it was not a good set.

00:22:15.000 It didn't make me laugh.

00:22:16.000 I didn't think it was great.

00:22:17.000 I thought that he told a bunch of pretty hackneyed, kind of racialist jokes because he's trying to be edgy.

00:22:22.000 And I understand that that's half the appeal to sort of the meme lords of the campaign.

00:22:26.000 It's not helpful in the middle of a campaign to make jokes about Puerto Ricans and Jews and blacks and Latinos in the middle of a campaign.

00:22:33.000 Not a particularly useful thing, such that the Trump campaign has to actively dissociate from the Comedians Act.

00:22:38.000 With that said, is that supposed to be the thing that characterizes the campaign?

00:22:43.000 How many votes are going to swing that Tony Hinchcliffe made a bad joke about Puerto Rico?

00:22:47.000 I don't think so, very much.

00:22:49.000 And the reality right now is that in the closing days of the campaign, Donald Trump is on a roll.

00:22:53.000 And on Friday, he went on Joe Rogan.

00:22:55.000 That episode of Joe Rogan has tens of millions of views on YouTube alone.

00:22:59.000 And that is Trump at his freewheeling best.

00:23:01.000 Again, this is where Trump shines.

00:23:03.000 Trump is really good with people.

00:23:05.000 I've met him several times, obviously.

00:23:07.000 I know President Trump.

00:23:07.000 I've dealt with him.

00:23:09.000 President Trump in a room is excellent.

00:23:11.000 Really, really good.

00:23:12.000 He's actually much better in a room than he is on a stage.

00:23:15.000 On a stage, he tends to ramble.

00:23:16.000 He tends to go really long.

00:23:17.000 In person, in a room, he connects with humans.

00:23:20.000 And that's what he did with Joe Rogan, and you can see it here.

00:23:23.000 So, I always got more publicity than other people, and it wasn't like I was trying.

00:23:28.000 In fact, I don't know exactly why.

00:23:31.000 Maybe you can tell me why.

00:23:32.000 Oh, I can definitely tell you.

00:23:34.000 You said a lot of wild s***.

00:23:35.000 Maybe.

00:23:36.000 Maybe.

00:23:37.000 He said a lot of wild sh**, and then CNN, in all their brilliance, by highlighting your wild sh** made you much more popular.

00:23:45.000 And they boosted you in the polls because people were tired of someone talking in this bullsh** pre-prepared politician lingo.

00:23:54.000 And even if they didn't agree with you, they at least knew whoever that guy is, that's him.

00:23:59.000 That's really him.

00:24:02.000 That is right.

00:24:04.000 That is right.

00:24:04.000 Okay, so momentum with Trump.

00:24:06.000 Meanwhile, the other evidence that Trump is winning is not just that he is happy and that the person campaigning happy tends to be the person who's ahead.

00:24:12.000 It is also that Kamala Harris is clearly flailing.

00:24:14.000 She clearly is flailing.

00:24:16.000 So she was asked over the weekend by a reporter about the internals, the internal polling.

00:24:22.000 So each campaign does internal polling that gives them what they think is their best picture, best snapshot of the swing states.

00:24:27.000 And her answer was, my internal polling is my heart.

00:24:30.000 Mm-hmm.

00:24:33.000 That's not good.

00:24:36.000 Can you give us a sense of your internal polling at the campaign and how that is influencing your decisions on what to do over the next nine days?

00:24:43.000 So, to be very frank with you, my internal polling is my instinct.

00:24:48.000 I let the campaign people deal with all that other stuff.

00:24:53.000 Have you noticed that the crazy Kamala cackle is back?

00:24:56.000 When she first started this campaign, it was gone.

00:24:58.000 Like, she had listened to her campaign handlers.

00:24:58.000 Gone.

00:25:00.000 Don't do it.

00:25:01.000 Please try to keep your cackle in.

00:25:01.000 Right?

00:25:03.000 And then, as she's gotten more uncomfortable over the course of the campaign, it makes its appearance all the time.

00:25:08.000 Like, a lot.

00:25:10.000 If anyone believes, by the way, that she's making her decisions based on instinct, they've never seen Kamala Harris' campaign.

00:25:15.000 She does nothing based on instinct because she doesn't have any political instincts.

00:25:19.000 She doesn't even have positions.

00:25:20.000 Everything she does is poll tested.

00:25:22.000 Everything that she is doing right now is a trial balloon, which she then immediately shoots down if it doesn't get the response that she wants.

00:25:30.000 Everything seems to be failing for her.

00:25:32.000 My friend John Podhoretz over at Commentary Magazine, who worked on the George H.W. Bush campaign in 1992, he has said about that campaign that when a campaign starts to have things go wrong, everything goes wrong all at once.

00:25:44.000 And that seems like the story with Kamala Harris' campaign.

00:25:47.000 It feels like everything is sort of going wrong all at once for her, even the small things.

00:25:51.000 So she had a rally over the weekend, and Beyonce was supposed to show up.

00:25:54.000 And tons of people showed up because they figured, okay, Beyonce's going to show up.

00:25:57.000 That means Beyonce's going to perform.

00:25:58.000 I'm gonna get like a free Beyonce performance out of this.

00:26:01.000 There is only one problem, which is that the packed crowd shows up and so does Beyonce.

00:26:06.000 She shows up, she waves to the crowd and she leaves.

00:26:09.000 And everyone is super pissed because it turns out if somebody says Beyonce to appear, you don't really think she's just gonna show up and wave at you.

00:26:15.000 You think she's gonna sing because that's what she's famous for.

00:26:18.000 Kamala can't even get that going.

00:26:19.000 All of which caused Donald Trump to actually rip into Kamala Harris for not even being able to get Beyonce to sing for her.

00:26:26.000 You know, they got Beyonce and Beyonce, you know, Beyonce.

00:26:30.000 They got Beyonce.

00:26:32.000 So Beyonce went up, spoke for a couple of minutes and then left.

00:26:35.000 And the place went crazy.

00:26:36.000 They booed the hell out of everybody.

00:26:39.000 They thought she was going to perform.

00:26:42.000 Now, I would have no interest in that, but they said, and what happened is my opponent got up and started speaking.

00:26:49.000 They booed the hell out of her.

00:26:50.000 It's crazy.

00:26:53.000 So, they have to use people to get people to come.

00:26:58.000 He's right, of course.

00:26:59.000 Meanwhile, Kamala Harris, she's going place to place trotting out new accents every single day.

00:27:03.000 Here she was speaking over the weekend, dropping yet another code switch in the middle of the campaign.

00:27:09.000 Weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning.

00:27:17.000 The path may seem hard, the work may seem heavy, but joy cometh in the morning, and church morning is on its way.

00:27:30.000 I'm sorry, her doing the MLK routine here is just galling.

00:27:33.000 It really is quite terrible.

00:27:35.000 Former Obama aides like Van Jones, David Axelrod, they're pointing out that she's going brat to flat.

00:27:41.000 David Axelrod said that she has a habit of going to what he called the word salad city when answering questions.

00:27:48.000 Van Jones, for his part, he really has his finger on why Kamala Harris is failing.

00:27:53.000 Because this is the problem.

00:27:54.000 What is the core of Kamala Harris's campaign?

00:27:56.000 The core of the campaign is basically that she's not Joe Biden.

00:27:59.000 That's it.

00:28:00.000 But there is no actual core to her other than her bizarre pursuit of left-wing radical wokeness.

00:28:09.000 Van, I'm friendly with Van.

00:28:12.000 We disagree on an enormous number of things, but I think Van is a genuine voice and speaks what he thinks is the truth and very often hits the nail on the head when it comes to political analysis of the Democratic Party.

00:28:22.000 Here he was pointing out, you know, guys, you alienated everyone, and now you're shocked that you're not getting the votes you need.

00:28:28.000 If progressives have a politics that says all white people are racist, all men are toxic, and all billionaires are evil, It's kind of hard to keep them on your side.

00:28:40.000 And so we might want to think about if you're chasing people out of the party, you can't be mad when they leave.

00:28:45.000 And maybe if we had a different politics, we actually said dignity for everybody, everybody's respected and we need you, more people might stay.

00:28:55.000 I mean, is that really that complicated?

00:28:57.000 But for Democrats, it is.

00:28:59.000 Let's talk about something that affects everybody who is a responsible, hard-working American.

00:29:03.000 That October 15th deadline?

00:29:03.000 We're talking taxes.

00:29:05.000 That's over.

00:29:05.000 Are you prepared for what comes next?

00:29:07.000 Do you owe back taxes?

00:29:08.000 Are your tax returns still unfiled?

00:29:10.000 Did you miss the deadline to file for an extension?

00:29:11.000 Well, now that October 15th is behind us, the IRS may be ramping up enforcement.

00:29:15.000 Let me tell you, they do not play around.

00:29:17.000 You could face wage garnishments, frozen bank accounts, even property seizures if you haven't taken action yet.

00:29:21.000 But here's the good news.

00:29:23.000 There is still hope.

00:31:08.000 James Carville is making the same point now.

00:31:10.000 He says the wokeness has been an absolute killer for the Kamala campaign.

00:31:14.000 The problem is there's a lot of part of the...

00:31:17.000 Liberal culture that still insists on using this jackass language.

00:31:23.000 This morning, I'm listening to NPR, which, again, I find, in one hand, quite informative, on the other hand, madly frustrating.

00:31:33.000 Talking about the vegan community.

00:31:35.000 Does any normal person use the term vegan community?

00:31:41.000 I have no idea.

00:31:42.000 Where do they meet?

00:31:43.000 What are they a part of?

00:31:43.000 What do they do?

00:31:44.000 I mean, I know plenty of people out of them.

00:31:46.000 Vegan, you know, but I don't know that there's some, you know, everything is a community.

00:31:53.000 That's the favorite democratic word that ever existed, which I don't mind.

00:31:58.000 I like being a part of a community.

00:32:00.000 But it just so says something that you send so many coded signals out to so many people that they don't even realize it.

00:32:13.000 Louisiana Skeletor is correct.

00:32:16.000 He's right about that.

00:32:17.000 There's nothing you can say.

00:32:18.000 But they can't.

00:32:18.000 They're addicted to it.

00:32:19.000 They're addicted to it.

00:32:20.000 Gwen Walls, who is the most obnoxious figure in all of American politics, and Doug Emhoff and Gwen Walls, man, they're part of the same campaign.

00:32:28.000 If you want the Zoom session from hell, here it is.

00:32:30.000 It's Katie Couric and Gwen Walls, both way too close to the camera.

00:32:33.000 This is like, oh my god, you get into an HR session and this is what you are faced with.

00:32:39.000 It's just awful.

00:32:40.000 And here's Gwen Walls explaining that we need tampons in boys' bathrooms.

00:32:44.000 This is the campaign, guys.

00:32:47.000 If kids are hungry in school, what that does to brain and learning?

00:32:50.000 You're not going to learn to read.

00:32:52.000 So if you're talking about learning to read and closing gaps, then you better take away the barriers for that.

00:32:57.000 If that's tampons, then that's tampons.

00:33:01.000 The barrier to learning is tampons in the boys' bathroom, according to Gwen Walls.

00:33:04.000 I can't imagine why they're losing men.

00:33:06.000 Very, very difficult to understand.

00:33:08.000 By the way, there is nothing at the core of the Kamala Harris campaign other than this kind of garbage.

00:33:13.000 Amazing story in the New York Times.

00:33:14.000 Truly incredible story from a couple of days ago.

00:33:17.000 It's from Friday.

00:33:18.000 Quote, From various intelligence agencies looking for possible gender bias.

00:33:40.000 The study found some questionable word choices, but no widespread pattern.

00:33:43.000 According to a senior intelligence official, one of five who requested anonymity to discuss the review.

00:33:48.000 None would disclose the words flagged by Ms.

00:33:50.000 Harris because the reports were classified.

00:33:51.000 Still, the exercise had an impact.

00:33:53.000 Intelligence officials added a new training class for analysts to assess how to judge female foreign leaders, according to another official.

00:34:00.000 The episode proved to be a preview of Ms.

00:34:02.000 Harris' priorities.

00:34:03.000 The vice president put questions about gender and race at the center of many of the policy discussions in her office, aides and former administration officials said.

00:34:09.000 Throughout her career, she pushed for policies aimed at systemic disparities and often used her bully pulpit to speak about what she saw as injustices.

00:34:17.000 So the core of her campaign is that as the vice president, when she would get an intelligence report, if it mentioned a female leader and used a word that she thought was sexist and offensive, she would chide the intelligence agencies.

00:34:31.000 This is clown town stuff, folks.

00:34:34.000 And she is an empty-headed clown.

00:34:36.000 She is.

00:34:37.000 That doesn't mean that she is a politician without any qualities at all.

00:34:40.000 She couldn't have gotten as far as she has without no qualities, but...

00:34:45.000 Her priority when she got in was to check for sexist language, the intelligence reports.

00:34:50.000 These are not serious people.

00:34:52.000 She's not a serious person.

00:34:53.000 And the American people can sense that she's not a serious person.

00:34:57.000 It's almost as though Trump and Harris are polar opposites this way.

00:35:00.000 She tries to present as a serious person, and underneath is a deeply unserious person who should not be in charge of anything.

00:35:06.000 And Trump presents as deeply unserious, and then when it comes to policy, is actually serious as a heart attack.

00:35:12.000 It's a truly amazing comparison.

00:35:15.000 Meanwhile, the problems don't stop there for Kamala Harris.

00:35:18.000 Hilariously, Joe Biden is still wandering the landscape, bumping into walls.

00:35:22.000 So apparently the Harris team is very angry because Joe Biden, the corpse of Joe Biden, is still decomposing as he wanders the landscape.

00:35:30.000 So over the weekend, he started trying to flame Donald Trump and speak English, and he failed at both.

00:35:36.000 Here he was on the tarmac.

00:35:39.000 Trump has no class at all.

00:35:41.000 Zero.

00:35:42.000 None.

00:35:43.000 Think, all kidding aside, if this wasn't a political campaign, how would you characterize man in terms of his manners, his decency?

00:35:53.000 Beneath the present.

00:35:57.000 So, yeah, that's not going to move the needle.

00:35:59.000 You know what else is not going to move the needle?

00:36:00.000 The fact that Joe Biden is trying to campaign for Kamala Harris?

00:36:03.000 He's labeling alive people dead, which I guess makes sense since he labels himself alive.

00:36:08.000 So it works in reverse as well.

00:36:10.000 Here he was talking about Gabby Giffords, who is alive and eulogizing her.

00:36:16.000 Gov, thank you for the introduction.

00:36:18.000 And to the Hila Indian River community, the Hila, nothing wrong with me.

00:36:26.000 Hello River Indian community for welcoming me today.

00:36:30.000 You know, I say this with all sincerity.

00:36:36.000 This, to me, is one of the most consequential things I've ever had an opportunity to do in my whole career as President of the United States.

00:36:45.000 It's an honor, a genuine honor to be in this special place on this special day.

00:36:52.000 Thank you to Senator Mark Kelly, a great friend who also was married to an incredible woman who was my friend.

00:37:01.000 Who was my friend?

00:37:03.000 She is alive.

00:37:05.000 I mean, he is not.

00:37:07.000 The Harris campaign is like, can we get him off the campaign trail?

00:37:10.000 Axios reports, President Biden wants to campaign for Vice President Harris in the last days before the election.

00:37:15.000 Harris's campaign keeps responding, we'll get back to you.

00:37:20.000 Oh boy.

00:37:21.000 Oh boy.

00:37:22.000 His approval rating right now is 39%.

00:37:24.000 Remember that old man they tried to shove off the back of the bus?

00:37:26.000 He's like gripping.

00:37:28.000 He's got the death grip on the campaign.

00:37:29.000 He's like, I really, really want to be part of...

00:37:31.000 I want to be...

00:37:32.000 Can we campaign together?

00:37:33.000 Come on.

00:37:34.000 And she's like, he's perfectly fine.

00:37:37.000 He's really...

00:37:38.000 Everything is great.

00:37:38.000 He's a great president.

00:37:39.000 Stay away from me, old creep.

00:37:41.000 Stay away.

00:37:45.000 Many on Biden's team, including some still on the campaign that Harris inherited from the president, believe Biden could help Harris in the final days.

00:37:51.000 They believe Harris's team is underestimating Biden's appeal among white working class communities in the Rust Belt, including in Pennsylvania.

00:37:57.000 In 2020, Biden outperformed Hillary Clinton's numbers with some of those voters.

00:38:01.000 Biden's team has become more assertive.

00:38:03.000 They announced the huge campaign solo in Pittsburgh this weekend, and Harris's team was like, what?

00:38:08.000 What are you doing?

00:38:09.000 No!

00:38:09.000 Back to the coffin, old man!

00:38:13.000 You wonder why people think there's a campaign in disarray?

00:38:16.000 It might be because it's a campaign in disarray.

00:38:18.000 That would probably be the reason.

00:38:21.000 But you know who the Harris team is trotting out?

00:38:24.000 They're trotting out in a last-ditch effort to drag black men to the polls, Michelle Obama.

00:38:29.000 And Michelle Obama has basically become older person of color Greta Thunberg.

00:38:35.000 She is disappointed in you.

00:38:37.000 She just comes out every so often to explain how she's disappointed in you and America.

00:38:41.000 A place that made her wealthy and famous beyond belief.

00:38:45.000 An America that gave her more opportunities than any living human.

00:38:51.000 In America, about which she wrote her Princeton thesis talking about how America was evil and terrible.

00:38:54.000 And she's never changed that opinion.

00:38:56.000 America is always evil and terrible, unless it's giving her things.

00:38:58.000 That has been Michelle Obama's personal perspective for a very, very long time.

00:39:02.000 And now she's disappointed in you, America.

00:39:04.000 Because if you won't vote for Kamala Harris, it's obvious that you are sexist and racist.

00:39:09.000 Not that Kamala Harris is a bad candidate.

00:39:11.000 Not that you prefer President Trump's policies.

00:39:13.000 No, it's that she is disappointed in you.

00:39:16.000 So she's just Greta Thunberg now.

00:39:19.000 See, these are just some of the ways women die during childbirth.

00:39:23.000 And I don't want to be a downer, y'all.

00:39:26.000 But in many cases, there is no warning and things go bad very quickly.

00:39:32.000 And when it happens, every second of hesitation or delay can lead to devastating outcomes.

00:39:40.000 So I am asking y'all from the core of my being to take our lives seriously.

00:39:48.000 Please, do not put our lives in the hands of politicians, mostly men who have no clue or do not care about what we as women are going through.

00:40:10.000 So their appeal to men is men are evil and terrible and they're assaulting women.

00:40:13.000 And she is just a...

00:40:15.000 Greta Thunberg is very disappointed in you.

00:40:17.000 But now it's Michelle Obama is very disappointed in you.

00:40:20.000 So disappointed in you.

00:40:22.000 And if that weren't enough, you get both Obamas for the price of one.

00:40:25.000 That's not true.

00:40:26.000 You get both Obamas for the price of two.

00:40:27.000 They're not going to stint on the pay.

00:40:29.000 Here is Barack Obama roasting Donald Trump over the weekend.

00:40:33.000 I do not know where to start with this man.

00:40:40.000 Called the civil rights movement crap?

00:40:42.000 Called LGBTQ people filth?

00:40:47.000 Self-identified as a Nazi?

00:40:50.000 Suggested bringing back slavery?

00:40:55.000 Now, I shouldn't really have to get into all this.

00:41:00.000 I think it's fair to say you do not need a governor who makes Donald Trump look almost normal.

00:41:11.000 You deserve somebody who's gonna work every day and fight for you.

00:41:17.000 Somebody who has shown that he is up for the job.

00:41:21.000 Somebody like Josh Stein.

00:41:23.000 He's been doing it his entire career.

00:41:25.000 He's going to have an easier time pushing Josh Stein over the finish line in North Carolina, where he's running against Mark Robinson, a deeply flawed candidate, to say the very least, than he will with Kamala Harris.

00:41:35.000 But none of it is working.

00:41:36.000 Nothing is working right now.

00:41:37.000 And you can tell the preemptive sense of panic has totally set in among Democrats.

00:41:42.000 Really, really setting in in a major way.

00:41:44.000 Well, folks, the pain is setting in for Democrats.

00:41:47.000 But I'll tell you something.

00:43:29.000 Already we are getting the preemptive mourning from the Democratic faithful.

00:43:33.000 It's pretty amazing to watch, actually.

00:43:35.000 So it is preemptive rage.

00:43:37.000 They know that they are not doing well in this election, and so they are bringing out everything they have got.

00:43:43.000 Leonardo DiCaprio, Robert De Niro, you can feel the rage, you can feel the anger.

00:43:47.000 They don't feel this way because they're winning.

00:43:49.000 They feel this way because they are losing.

00:43:50.000 Here's Leonardo DiCaprio, who apparently has mistaken Kamala Harris for a 23-year-old woman, expressing his support for her.

00:43:58.000 This is the place where democracy was born.

00:44:01.000 And it's only fitting that we're all here today to fight for that very same democracy.

00:44:07.000 Like all of you, I am very excited because in 10 short days, we all have the opportunity to make history together.

00:44:15.000 Citizens like every one of you here today are absolutely critical to doing just that.

00:44:22.000 I just want to start.

00:44:24.000 It makes me so angry that we're here talking about a piece of shit like Donald Trump.

00:44:34.000 Robert De Niro, Leonardo DiCaprio, making the case to people who really, really, really loved all nine hours of Killers of the Flower Moon.

00:44:45.000 But that's not where most of the rage was happening over the weekend.

00:44:48.000 Most of the rage was actually directed at, wait for it, the Washington Post.

00:44:51.000 So, the Washington Post came out and said it will stop endorsing presidential candidates.

00:44:55.000 Apparently, that decision was made by Jeff Bezos, the paper's owner.

00:44:59.000 Now, is anyone under the mistaken impression that the Washington Post op-ed page is filled with Donald Trump supporters?

00:45:04.000 Everybody knows where the Washington Post stands.

00:45:06.000 The reason that they're not endorsing this year or in the future is because they understand they've alienated everybody to the right of Karl Marx over at the Washington Post.

00:45:14.000 The Los Angeles Times is doing the same thing.

00:45:16.000 They're withholding their endorsement.

00:45:17.000 Is that because they don't actually like Kamala Harris more than they like Donald Trump?

00:45:21.000 Of course not.

00:45:22.000 We know where the LA Times is.

00:45:23.000 We know where the Washington Post is.

00:45:25.000 But the mere fact that they would not put forth an endorsement of Kamala Harris means that everyone is losing their minds on the left.

00:45:32.000 On Friday, Will Lewis, the Post's chief executive, according to the New York Times, told the newsroom the paper would no longer endorse presidential candidates.

00:45:39.000 His announcement came after the debate and decision by Bezos, a person with knowledge of the talks, said.

00:45:44.000 By that time, the paper's opinion section had already drafted an endorsement of Harris, according to four people with knowledge of the process.

00:45:51.000 The Post had endorsed presidential candidates since 1976 when it gave its stamp of approval to Jimmy Carter.

00:45:56.000 But the reality is that the Washington Post has endorsed a Democrat every election cycle since then.

00:46:02.000 I don't think they've ever endorsed a Republican ever.

00:46:05.000 So what difference does it make?

00:46:06.000 The answer is none.

00:46:07.000 But people are fighting mad about this.

00:46:10.000 Very, very angry.

00:46:10.000 Marty Baron, former executive editor of the Washington Post, he said, quote, this is cowardice with democracy as its casualty.

00:46:18.000 Donald Trump will see this as an invitation to further intimidate Jeff Bezos and others.

00:46:22.000 Disturbing spinelessness at an institution famed for courage.

00:46:26.000 Wow.

00:46:27.000 Yeah, the Washington Post, famous for its courage because they've spent their entire existence standing up to the Democratic power strength.

00:46:34.000 Well, can't say that, really.

00:46:37.000 But they're really, really mad.

00:46:38.000 Meanwhile, Washington Post editor-at-large Robert Kagan confirmed that he resigned from the Washington Post following the decision not to endorse in the presidential race.

00:46:48.000 The Washington Post, by the way, recently sought a sit-down with Kamala Harris and the paper's ed board.

00:46:52.000 The campaign refused to schedule a meeting.

00:46:56.000 So, they're really, really fighting mad about this.

00:46:58.000 Brian Stelter.

00:47:00.000 Mr.

00:47:00.000 Potato, he is back on CNN, where he explains this is anticipatory obedience.

00:47:05.000 So I just have a question.

00:47:07.000 If they refuse to issue an endorsement on behalf of Kamala Harris, that's anticipatory obedience.

00:47:11.000 If they every year endorse a Democrat, is that not anticipatory obedience?

00:47:15.000 Meaning, aren't they doing that because they wish to get in good with Democrats?

00:47:19.000 Here's Brian Stelter.

00:47:20.000 Everyone is so mad on the left.

00:47:21.000 Now, here's the reality.

00:47:22.000 Ain't nobody voting based on the Washington Post editor's decision whether or not to issue an endorsement.

00:47:29.000 Nobody's waiting there.

00:47:30.000 No swing voter was like, oh my God, well, now the Washington Post is withholding an endorsement.

00:47:34.000 Probably I'm going to vote for Donald Trump.

00:47:35.000 No one's doing that.

00:47:37.000 No one.

00:47:38.000 They're just looking for people to be angry at because they have to find somebody to blame.

00:47:42.000 They can't blame themselves.

00:47:43.000 They can't blame the Democratic Party and they can't blame wokeness.

00:47:45.000 They have to find somebody.

00:47:46.000 Maybe it'll be the Russians this time.

00:47:48.000 Or maybe it'll be the editorial board over at the Washington Post, which could not issue that crucial late in the cycle endorsement.

00:47:58.000 The overarching story here is about a concern that billionaires like Bezos might be rolling over and appeasing Donald Trump even before the election day actually rolls around.

00:48:09.000 This is known by some scholars as anticipatory obedience, the idea that some people obey in advance to curry favor with aspiring authoritarians.

00:48:20.000 Certainly, many liberal critics of Trump believe that's exactly what's happening now at publications like the Washington Post.

00:48:26.000 And I've heard from staffers inside the Post, reporters and editors, who are worried about the chilling effect that this is having.

00:48:35.000 This is a chilling effect.

00:48:36.000 So it's Trump being mean to the Washington Post.

00:48:38.000 That is why they're claiming, democracy is dying in darkness.

00:48:41.000 Or maybe it turns out that Jeff Bezos and the rest of the paper's ownership structure are not particularly interested at this point in continuing to alienate literally half the body politic.

00:48:52.000 Well, not so for the New York Times.

00:48:54.000 The New York Times issued a front page, and this is obviously an attempt to steal the audience of the Washington Post.

00:48:59.000 The Sunday opinion section in giant 2020 Point.

00:49:03.000 Bold font.

00:49:04.000 Donald Trump says he will prosecute his enemies, order mass deportations, use soldiers against citizens, abandon allies, play politics with disasters.

00:49:11.000 Believe him.

00:49:12.000 Well, I mean, I for one am very relieved to find out that the New York Times editorial board is not endorsing Donald Trump and will in fact endorse Kamala Harris.

00:49:20.000 Until that moment, I had no idea where they stood.

00:49:22.000 I mean, sure, every one of their conservative columnists has also endorsed Kamala Harris.

00:49:27.000 Sure, that's true.

00:49:28.000 But the thing that I am most focused on right now is that the New York Times said the thing, and that's really important.

00:49:34.000 Again, this is all preemptive panic.

00:49:36.000 It's all preemptive panic by the Democrats.

00:49:38.000 They're upset with the Washington Post, not because they think the endorsement matters, but because they need somebody who's showing insufficient skin in the game to blame if Kamala Harris loses.

00:49:48.000 They need somebody to blame.

00:49:50.000 Maybe it'll be Jill Stein.

00:49:51.000 Maybe it'll be the Russians.

00:49:52.000 Or maybe it'll just be the American people writ large.

00:49:55.000 But the Washington Post is as good a candidate as any.

00:49:58.000 And we'll see how it works out for them.

00:50:00.000 Usually the party that preemptively panics is the one that's losing.

00:50:03.000 Alrighty, guys.

00:50:03.000 Coming up, while I was on break, Iran was struck by the Israeli Defense Force.
