00:03:04.000But then I'm going to have a take on this that will surprise a lot of you.
00:03:08.000I am going to have a different approach on how I think President Trump should handle this story.
00:03:15.000But let's get to the facts because this is worthy of publicity.
00:03:19.000This is worthy of diving into the details.
00:03:22.000So those of us that have been following the Biden crime family for the last couple of years, it is well known to us that Joe Biden allowed his son, if not worked with his son, to gallivan around the world and sell access to the vice president's office, to government officials to sit on foreign boards such as Burisma to raise money in China,
00:03:49.000$1.5 billion after the Chinese rode on Air Force 2.
00:03:55.000And those of us in conservative circles have been doing our best to expose the depth and the corruption of the Biden family activities.
00:04:09.000I think Pam Bondi did this the best at the Republican National Convention.
00:04:14.000Again, Joe Biden has been the least scrutinized candidate for office ever, considering the amount of capital flows, the foreign deals, the inside-out relationships with his brother getting preferred housing contracts in Iraq with his son, Hunter Biden.
00:04:34.000And this story today directly contradicts a repeated line that Joe Biden had said on the campaign trail.
00:04:44.000There was a little bit of a, let's say, news cycle that existed around a couple of these controversies.
00:04:51.000You might remember back in the Democrat primary, Joe Biden was being pushed and being forced to answer questions about whether or not his son was involved in burisma.
00:05:02.000The reason for this is that the Democrats failed tremendously in removing the president, President Trump, with the Mueller investigation.
00:05:13.000So the day after the Mueller report was released, President Trump has a phone call with the Ukrainian president.
00:05:22.000Not after the Mueller report was released.
00:06:50.000What about Hunter, Mr. Vice President?
00:06:51.000There's a few questions about conflict issues with him as well as your brother.
00:06:55.000Can you describe what sort of measures you're going to put in place to avoid conflicts of interest, whether you knew your brother has been accused of, let's say, trying to use your campaign for his business interests to do anything about that?
00:07:07.000Well, first of all, I have never discussed with my son or my brother or anyone else anything having to do with their businesses, period.
00:07:17.000And what I will do is the same thing we did in our administration.
00:07:21.000There'll be an absolute wall between personal and private and the government.
00:07:27.000There wasn't any hint of scandal at all when we were there at home.
00:07:30.000So it was the same kind of strict, strict rules.
00:07:33.000That's why I never talked with my son or my brother or anyone else, even the Distance family, about their business interests.
00:07:42.000Now, to be perfectly fair, that video is from Breitbart.com.
00:07:46.000I don't know if Joe Biden would actually remember it.
00:07:48.000I actually legitimately think he might have forgotten it.
00:07:50.000However, first he said no hint of scandal.
00:07:52.000We know that's just a flat-out projection, gaslighting, double-speak lie, IRS scandal, Benghazi, Fast and Furious, the Veterans Administration scandal.
00:08:03.000We could go through the Iranian deal scandal.
00:08:06.000But Joe Biden said, quote, there is a firewall between personal and public life, meaning that my son might have went out and do other things, but I wasn't involved.
00:08:17.000This is now a corroborated falsehood, meaning like we can corroborate that it's a falsehood.
00:09:55.000Hunter Biden allegedly, or someone that looked like Hunter Biden that had a Bo Biden sticker on their laptop, dropped off this laptop to a repair shop in Delaware.
00:10:04.000The repair shop owner allegedly tried to contact Hunter many times and said, quote, the customer who brought in the water-damaged MacBook Pro for repair never paid for the service, which is a typical Biden activity in Delaware.
00:10:19.000They have stiffed contractors for years.
00:10:24.000And the shop owner couldn't positively identify the customer as Hunter Biden, but said the laptop bore a sticker from the Bo Biden Foundation.
00:10:31.000And he then contacted authorities, the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
00:10:35.000They obtained a subpoena and they seized the computer.
00:10:39.000So the FBI has had this computer for quite some time.
00:10:42.000Why haven't they indicted or why haven't they pursued this?
00:10:46.000Maybe they have or maybe there was some directives from on high to stop some of these investigations.
00:10:54.000Remember, Joe Biden bragged that he made the Ukrainians fire the prosecutor and he said, well, son of a beep, he got fired in exchange for also that prosecutor looking into his son.
00:11:10.000Now, mind you, this computer shop owner made a copy of the hard drive and handed it to Mayor Giuliani's lawyer, Robert Costello.
00:11:22.000And that is probably why we have these emails today, I think, assuredly.
00:11:29.000And so I want to continue to build this out because this is worthy of every single American knowing how Joe Biden would run the government.
00:11:38.000Joe Biden ran the government as vice president as a personal family enterprise.
00:11:44.000The Trump family stopped doing foreign business deals when their father became president.
00:11:50.000Hunter Biden started doing foreign business deals as soon as the father became president.
00:11:57.000He said, quote, I never discussed with my son anything having to do with what was going on in Ukraine.
00:12:03.000I've never spoken to my son about his overseas business dealings.
00:12:07.000And you read the article, it is very clear that Hunter Biden received an email thanking him from Vadim Pozarinsky, where he met with Joe Biden.
00:12:17.000Now, Joe Biden met with the number three executive from Burisma.
00:12:49.000I remember going over, convincing our team, our brothers, to convincing us that we should be providing for loan guarantees.
00:12:57.000And I went over, I guess, the 12th, 13th time to Kyiv, and I was supposed to announce that there was another billion-dollar loan guarantee.
00:13:08.000And I had gotten a commitment from Poroshenko and from Yatsenyuk that they would take action against the state prosecutor, and they didn't.
00:13:17.000So they said they were walking out to the press conference.
00:13:19.000I said, no, I said, I'm not going to, or we're not going to give you the billion dollars.
00:13:44.000And they put in place someone who was solid.
00:13:48.000So there's Joe Biden bragging about getting the prosecutor fired that was looking into his son.
00:13:52.000But the most interesting part of that clip that I forgot about is he visited Kiev, or he calls it Kyiv, 12 or 13 times.
00:14:02.000That's a lot of visits for a sitting vice president.
00:14:06.000I mean, you don't visit Cincinnati or Columbus 12 or 13 times, but you're visiting Kiev 12 or 13 times.
00:14:12.000And yet that just happens to be the one country that Hunter Biden is heavily involved in.
00:14:19.000And so just looking at this as logically and as based in reason as we possibly can, you have a sitting vice president with a cocaine addict son who has very little skills that he would be able to offer the world.
00:14:34.000And I don't say that in any other way except factually.
00:14:38.000The skill that he has is being able to throw around his father's name to get access.
00:14:59.000And he just happens to go sit on the board of the oil, natural gas company that his father oversees, where he visits 12 or 13 times.
00:15:09.000And we're supposed to believe that this meeting that has now been corroborated through an email into Hunter Biden, that he met with the sitting vice president of the United States while in Washington, D.C., we are now supposed to believe that there was no asks for favors, that there was no policy discussions, that there was no, hey, can you please do this?
00:15:35.000Can you get this prosecutor fired, please?
00:15:37.000Can you reappropriate some American foreign aid for natural gas development?
00:15:43.000Whatever those conversations might have been.
00:15:46.000And yet, Joe Biden bragging about the prosecutor is one thing.
00:15:51.000But the deeper point here is that Hunter Biden most likely went foreign board shopping.
00:15:58.000What foreign board wouldn't want Hunter Biden to be involved?
00:16:02.000When you deal in the second and the third world and these very corrupt governments, people that have worked in the agency have told me that they have no understanding of how to do politics except through a corrupt lens.
00:16:16.000It is a question of can you spend the money?
00:16:37.000You know, go sit on some think tank board.

00:17:49.000Joe Biden knew about, met with, probably supported his son's foreign business dealings in direct contrast to what he told us publicly.
00:18:02.000And here's what I think President Trump should do with this: ignore Biden.
00:18:08.000This is where some people will disagree with me.
00:18:10.000We are less than three weeks out to the presidential election.
00:18:17.000And the more money that is being spent on television, radio, digital ads against Joe Biden, probably over $100 million if you count all the outside groups and Trump's campaign, the more popular and more favorable Joe Biden gets.
00:18:34.000I traveled the country in 2016 with Donald Trump Jr. in my personal capacity.
00:18:39.000He's a bag carrier, Diet Coke retriever, was heavily involved in a lot of different things.
00:18:47.000And one thing I saw more than Trump signs was Hillary for prison signs.
00:18:52.000There was a grassroots, uniform, agreed-upon disgust for Hillary Clinton.
00:19:01.000The way she talked, her attitude, the way she presented her policies, the entire Clinton machine felt and appeared at the worst of the ruling class, almost like they wanted to again be in charge of the unelected government in our country.
00:19:31.000Joe Biden, for whatever reason, and we can speculate and we can conjecture, despite these revelations today, despite his son getting phenomenally rich, despite all of the unearthing of corruption that has been done by Peter Schweitzer and so many other people, is only getting more popular.
00:19:52.000Real clear politics average, according to Fox News, has Joe Biden plus 17 in favorables, Reuters plus 16, plus 8 in the Politico Morning Consult poll.
00:20:04.000These are all within the last couple of weeks.
00:20:07.000So, right now, as a Trump supporter and a friend of the president, I'm telling you, it's not working.
00:20:13.000Joe Biden's actually not going to become president.
00:20:15.000He might get sworn in ceremoniously, but it's going to be a shadow government, and he might not even complete his entire term.
00:20:23.000So, as tempting as it is to spend the rest of our program and the rest of our advocacy and activism talking about Joe Biden and Ukraine and emails, people don't care.
00:20:37.000And you might say, oh, no, no, no, this one revelation is going to win it over.
00:21:18.000It takes too many names that are hard to pronounce, too many different lines you have to draw together, and people will disengage and they'll say, What are you going to do to expand my earnings or to improve my economic well-being, my material well-being, or stop the virus or save my country?
00:21:37.000So, President Donald Trump, in my personal opinion, based on talking to thousands of people and receiving tens of thousands of messages and notices on social media and our podcasts, and you guys can always email us freedom at charliekirk.com, and I'd love to hear your thoughts on this take that we have.
00:21:53.000President Donald Trump has to ignore Joe Biden.
00:21:56.000It's very tempting to make this all about Joe Biden because of these revelations and because he's in the top of the ticket, but he's not actually going to be president.
00:22:05.000You see, Joe Biden has plus 17 favorables, according to a Fox News poll.
00:22:13.000Camela Harris, the last poll that was done that we can tell, has a negative 8 favorability rating.
00:22:23.000And it's probably even lower than that.
00:22:26.000And remember, the favorable, unfavorable numbers are even worse when she is just isolated herself.
00:22:33.000Remember, Bernie Sanders won her home state with 32.4% of the vote.
00:22:40.000She would not even won her home state.
00:22:43.000And I could tell you this from traveling the country back in 2016, seeing the Hillary for Prison signs.
00:22:50.000I see zero grassroots, homemade signs messaging against Joe Biden.
00:23:24.000We know the unethical style of governance that he tolerated.
00:23:29.000However, my political philosophy is very simple.
00:23:34.000I want to win and I want them to lose.
00:23:38.000And if we are going to try to continue to make a non-resonating argument that Joe Biden is actually a socialist and you don't understand one more email revelation is going to win it for us.
00:23:58.000There's consolidation going around him and independence based on public polling and based on real conversations that I'm having, real conversations that our forces on the ground are having.
00:24:08.000And before you discount it, we're actually talking to human beings at turning point action.
00:25:09.000Kamala Harris is not even liked amongst the Democrat base.
00:25:12.000Trending on Twitter throughout the entire Democrat Party was, Kamala is a cop.
00:25:17.000She's not liked by Democrat activists.
00:25:19.000She's not liked by Democrat moderates.
00:25:21.000She's only liked by Democrat corporate donors.
00:25:24.000That's who love Kamala Harris because she's smart enough and she's sneaky enough and she's treacherous enough to be able to negotiate those deals.
00:25:34.000After the vice presidential debate, Mike Pence swung the race much in Trump's direction with swing voters.
00:25:46.000The New York Times has gone out of their way to defend Senator Kamala Harris.
00:25:52.000But remember, on the day she suspended her campaign, she stood at 3.4%.
00:26:42.000Let's be empirical because we actually know who's in charge.
00:26:47.000A majority of independent voters do not believe that Joe Biden will finish out his entire term as president.
00:26:54.000So now it's time for every Republican and conservative out there to, yes, recognize that Joe Biden and Hunter Biden did all these sorts of things.
00:27:02.000We just started the program and all of that.
00:27:08.000Who's actually going to be in control?
00:27:11.000Senator Kamala Harris, who is much younger, has a lot of energy, and wants power a lot more than Joe Biden.
00:27:18.000Because Senator Kamala Harris's unfavorable numbers are under water with swing voters.
00:27:26.000Senator Harris is looked at as a radical, almost as an intersectional Hillary Clinton.
00:27:37.000And if we relentlessly attack Joe Biden for the next three weeks, Donald Trump might lose.
00:27:44.000I'm looking at these favorable, unfavorable numbers.
00:27:46.000And again, I don't necessarily trust polling, but I do trust a lot of the data that we are collecting on the ground.
00:27:52.000And when that data on the ground harmonizes with some of this national public approval rating polling, I'm here telling you as not just a spectator, but someone in the arena, you have to have a change of strategy.
00:28:03.000And so here you have an unliked California liberal who's trying to win Battleground Midwestern states, who has no charm, no charisma, as a transactional machine politician from one of the least liked states,
00:28:21.000if you're a Midwesterner, who has outwardly said that we should have the Green New Deal, who's the co-sponsor of the Green New Deal, that is one of the most pro-abortion activists, assailed Brett Kavanaugh.
00:28:37.000She's the most liberal U.S. Senator, according to GovTrack, more so than even Bernie Sanders.
00:28:45.000She was the least likely to join bipartisan bills compared to Senate Democrats.
00:28:50.000And the Manhattan Institute budget expert Brian Reedy has calculated that Harris has proposed a mind-numbing $46 trillion in new spending.
00:28:58.000And if I could give some feedback based in the best spirit of President Donald Trump getting re-elected to the Trump campaign, I don't talk to the Trump campaign.
00:29:35.000They're the only ads that I have seen, and I could be wrong, I could be incomplete in my survey of the landscape, and that's fine.
00:29:42.000I'm the first one to say I don't have a comprehensive view of all of it, but just based on anecdotal observation of our staff in the Battleground states from Arizona to Ohio to Michigan to Texas, you name it, we're still attacking Joe Biden as being clueless and lost.
00:30:09.000She's the one that's going to radicalize our government and run solely against Kamala Harris.
00:30:14.000If we keep hitting Joe Biden the way we are, it is not going to move persuadables or swing voters in our direction.
00:30:26.000You guys have all seen Social Dilemma, Netflix.
00:30:29.000Well, maybe not Netflix because they're a pedophile network.
00:30:31.000But if you've seen Social Dilemma, which, again, I'm not exactly sure how you square that, they talk about how tech insiders explain how social media is engineered to exploit users' data for profit.
00:30:45.000Look, I'm cool with normal capitalism where I'm willing to participate in the transaction, like every time I go to the store to buy food.
00:30:51.000But when my data is being harvested so tech billionaires can get even richer, that's where I draw the line.
00:30:56.000And that's why I put a layer of protection around my data with ExpressVPN.
00:31:00.000Every time you use the internet, big tech companies and the surveillance capitalists and the oligarchs, they track your searches, messages, and video history.
00:31:09.000But when you run through ExpressVPN, it hides your IP address, which websites can use to personally identify you.
00:31:14.000That makes your activity more difficult to trace and sell the advertisers.
00:31:17.000ExpressVPN also encrypts 100% of your internet data to keep you safe from hackers and from prying eyes.
00:31:23.000Many VPNs slow down your internet, but not ExpressVPN.
00:32:04.000And where we very well could have made an argument that Joe Biden was weak, in the midst of a virus, sympathy is the primary reaction from the citizenry.
00:32:14.000And so the more we attack Joe Biden, the more sympathy among senior voters.
00:32:19.000I mean, the latest polls that come out of, and again, I don't take the polls at face value, but I do like polling trends.
00:32:26.000Polling trends, especially when the likely voters or the polling sample is more than 1,500 people, then yeah, there's some truth to that.
00:33:17.000I'm talking to real people, not just behind a computer screen all day long, telling you that this is the next big revelation and Michelle Obama is going to be the candidate.
00:33:42.000What did surprise me, though, and it shows you that probably Nancy Pelosi was heavily involved in this selection process because she herself is running her own kind of godfather pseudo-Democrat power ring within the Democrat Party, is the selection of Kamala Harris.
00:34:08.000It's actually an incredible political opening for us.
00:34:12.000You have an unlikable, power-hungry, unpopular, radical liberal, the most in the entire Senate, more than Bernie Sanders, more than Leahy, more than Sheldon White House with his boards.
00:34:25.000And yet we are not laying a glove on Senator Harris.
00:34:34.000If I were calling the shots, which I'm not, I would convert all my advertising on the negative side to Kamala Harris.
00:34:40.000I would change all the messaging to Senator Harris because she will be in charge.
00:34:43.000If Joe Biden wins this election, she will become president at some point.
00:34:48.000They'll either blackmail Biden because of all these emails that have come out, and that's maybe how you can connect the email story, quite honestly.
00:34:54.000If you feel so compelled to make an argument around the email story, which again, it is a big deal legally.
00:35:15.000However, with stops, independent and moderate voters in their tracks is the idea of a California cackling, gun-grabbing, leftist, Marxist running our government.
00:36:25.000Because she's so unpopular, the Biden campaign is running from her like a house on fire.
00:36:31.000If the Biden campaign doesn't want to embrace her, then shouldn't we attack her?
00:36:37.000If the Biden campaign is seeing the unfavorables that we're seeing, why are we not going all in in the air apparent co-president that would run our government if Biden stumbles into the presidency?
