00:00:00.000 Hey everybody, happy Monday.
00:00:01.000 I take your questions as well as some questions I got at a live event.
00:00:05.000 We just got hours until we're going to know the future of our republic.
00:00:08.000 Will our country commit suicide?
00:00:11.000 Or will we go on a path to prosperity, greatness, and back to American exceptionalism?
00:00:15.000 Please consider supporting us at charliekirk.com slash support.
00:00:18.000 CharlieKirk.com slash support.
00:00:20.000 We are not sleeping.
00:00:21.000 We are traveling the country.
00:00:24.000 We are communicating to new voters every single day, young people.
00:00:27.000 And this is made possible when you support us at charliekirk.com slash support.
00:00:31.000 It's Monday.
00:00:31.000 I'm taking your questions.
00:00:32.000 Buckle up, everybody.
00:00:33.000 Here we go.
00:00:34.000 Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.
00:00:36.000 Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campus.
00:00:38.000 I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.
00:00:42.000 Charlie Kirk's running the White House, folks.
00:00:45.000 I want to thank Charlie.
00:00:46.000 He's an incredible guy.
00:00:47.000 His spirit, his love of this country, he's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created.
00:00:54.000 Turning point USA.
00:00:55.000 We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.
00:01:04.000 That's why we are here.
00:01:07.000 Hello, everybody.
00:01:08.000 It is the final push when you are listening to this podcast.
00:01:10.000 That might be the day before the election or the day of the election.
00:01:14.000 So let me just start by saying, go vote.
00:01:17.000 And if you have not yet voted, then you need to make a plan to go vote on Election Day.
00:01:24.000 Or if you are in the Panhandle of Florida, I hear that some of your polling places might be open.
00:01:28.000 And if you are just sitting at home worrying, saying, what can I do to help save the Republic?
00:01:33.000 Take out your cell phone and become a digital door knocking machine.
00:01:39.000 Text every single person in your phone a message of why you're supporting President Trump.
00:01:44.000 Copy paste it and empty your entire phone.
00:01:48.000 My phone right here has, how many contacts do you think my phone has?
00:01:54.000 100, 200, 8,434 contacts.
00:01:59.000 All of them will receive a message from me on why I'm supporting President Trump.
00:02:04.000 The people that are already voting, they need to hear and see the grassroots push that we are building.
00:02:09.000 The people that are on the fence, they trust you to do it.
00:02:13.000 We have just surpassed our 100 millionth download here on the Charlie Kirk show.
00:02:18.000 Praise God.
00:02:20.000 Every one of these episodes is heard by tens of thousands, if not hundreds of thousands of individual people.
00:02:27.000 What if every single person listening to this took out their phone and texted at least, let's just say, 200 people, come up with a message, your favorite most compelling argument to vote for Trump, and you copy paste it piece by piece, peer-to-peer text message, your entire phone.
00:02:42.000 If every person listening to this right now did that, it would be a grassroots wave that the Silicon Valley censors cannot get in the way of.
00:02:52.000 So I'm going to get into one of the first questions here.
00:02:54.000 And every person who gets selected for a question wins a signed copy of the MAGA Doctrine.
00:03:01.000 And I pray that the MAGA doctrine will still be in the White House after Tuesday.
00:03:06.000 I pray.
00:03:07.000 And some of you might be listening to this on Wednesday, and you might know something that I don't know as I'm recording this right now.
00:03:12.000 And so as we are recording this episode, we stay prayerful, we stay focused, and we are working.
00:03:18.000 We're in North Carolina right now doing events all across the state.
00:03:21.000 We are in Raleigh now.
00:03:22.000 We're in Asheboro.
00:03:23.000 We'll be in Asheville.
00:03:24.000 And then we are going to finish off in western Michigan in Grand Rapids.
00:03:30.000 So people are asking, what is the state of the race?
00:03:32.000 What is going on?
00:03:33.000 Who's going to win?
00:03:35.000 Well, here's what I can tell you, is that late on Saturday evening, a poll came out that shocked the entire polling world.
00:03:43.000 President Donald Trump was shown to be up in many polls in Iowa.
00:03:49.000 And then the Des Moines Register poll, which is considered to be the gold standard of Iowa polling, came out to show Donald Trump up seven points in Iowa.
00:03:59.000 Seven points.
00:04:01.000 Now, the significance of this is that the polls prior were showing Joe Biden by four, according to the WHO TV 13.
00:04:10.000 New York Times, Sienna had Joe Biden by three.
00:04:13.000 And then in a couple days, massive movement.
00:04:16.000 This poll was really driven by Joe Biden hitting a ceiling at 41%, Donald Trump at 47%, and independents breaking Donald Trump's way in record numbers.
00:04:28.000 As we are making this episode right here, right now, before taking the stage to another event in North Carolina, as we are barnstorming the country trying to get this president re-elected, we have given over 120 speeches across the country in just the last 90 days, not including the two podcasts a day, the two hours of radio, and all the other work we do at Turning Point USA and Turning Point Action.
00:04:49.000 We are working very, very hard.
00:04:51.000 And I can tell you through all the work that we have been doing, we have been waiting for this moment to come.
00:04:57.000 At Turning Point Action, we have been on the ground.
00:04:59.000 We've knocked on hundreds of thousands of doors and we've heard all sorts of reactions about where people stand on the president and where they think things are going.
00:05:08.000 And I can tell you that there was a break about a week ago where we started to see things trend positively in the president's direction.
00:05:17.000 The president started to take a significant, not just a lead, but started to show separation speed in the grassroots work we were doing.
00:05:28.000 So the state of the race is this, is that things are trending very positively in the president's direction.
00:05:34.000 Despite what the pundits, the prognosticators, and the political elite will tell you, the last couple days heading into an election are more important than any other days in the entire election.
00:05:44.000 If you look at the size of the crowds, you look at the closing arguments, you look at the story that President Trump is trying to tell, reopen America.
00:05:52.000 We're going to be brave.
00:05:53.000 We're going to be wise.
00:05:54.000 We're going to tackle this virus by not just blindly following the scientists, but trusting the American people and protecting their liberty.
00:06:03.000 The president is saying that church is essential, that we will not indoctrinate our children, that we will make our kids love America again.
00:06:09.000 Joe Biden's message is that we're heading for a dark winter as Joe Biden speaks some sort of form of gibberish pig Latin while a bunch of people are honking car horns at him.
00:06:19.000 Now, Joe Biden could still win.
00:06:21.000 I'm going to tell you right now that Joe Biden could end up winning this election.
00:06:25.000 In order for Joe Biden to win, he'd have to win 75% of the suburban vote.
00:06:30.000 The rules would not have to show up, and the urban centers are going to have to show up in massive numbers and huge support.
00:06:35.000 And Joe Biden would have to win a good amount of the muscular class in this country.
00:06:41.000 That's all very possible.
00:06:43.000 Nate Silver from 538 blog gives President Donald Trump's chances of winning at 10%.
00:06:49.000 He thinks that Joe Biden has a 90% chance of winning.
00:06:53.000 I would not handicap the odds that way at all.
00:06:56.000 And I can tell you on the ground, I have never seen the president's base as enthused.
00:07:01.000 I've never seen Republicans as united in concert, in harmony, to get President Trump elected.
00:07:09.000 I can tell you confidently that President Donald Trump will at least make this race close.
00:07:14.000 And if not, I'll be the first one to admit that I was wrong.
00:07:17.000 We are seeing every single poll tighten.
00:07:19.000 We are seeing every single leading metric go in the favorable direction.
00:07:22.000 So I have to now head on stage in North Carolina, and we will do the remainder of this Ask Me Anything episode from some of the questions that I have received from the front lines here at this event that I'm about to do.
00:07:33.000 Next week, we'll be back with our regular Ask Me Anything episode.
00:07:36.000 So please continue to email us your questions, freedom at charliekirk.com, and please consider supporting us at charliekirk.com slash support.
00:07:43.000 My biggest ask is this.
00:07:44.000 Text every single one of your friends right now.
00:07:46.000 Text.
00:07:47.000 If you text your entire phone why you're voting for Trump, if every single person listening to this did that, millions of people would be reached with a direct peer-to-peer message of why we need to re-elect President Trump.
00:07:58.000 It's time to get this done, everyone.
00:08:00.000 President Trump has given us 300 federal judges.
00:08:02.000 Amy Coney Barrett, Kavanaugh, Gorsuch, the largest middle-class tax cut in American history.
00:08:06.000 The embassies in Jerusalem, the Golan Heights are recognized.
00:08:09.000 We have the best economy in American history.
00:08:11.000 He is clamping down on child sex trafficking.
00:08:13.000 He's building the southern border wall.
00:08:16.000 He is fighting institutional political corruption.
00:08:18.000 And most importantly, he's restoring faith and hope in the greatest country ever to exist in the history of the world.
00:08:25.000 I pray that you guys will continue to hold the line for President Trump.
00:08:28.000 We need to show up in record numbers, more so than ever before, to re-elect this president.
00:08:33.000 And it's on us.
00:08:35.000 It's on us to lean in, to mobilize the vote, and to get President Trump re-elected.
00:08:41.000 All right, I have to take the stage, everybody.
00:08:43.000 God bless.
00:08:44.000 Talk to you soon.
00:08:44.000 Thanks so much.
00:08:48.000 Here's a, boy, there's a lot of great questions here.
00:08:51.000 Number four, what do you make of the trend of neo-Marxism taking root in the church?
00:08:55.000 And what is your favorite and most effective way to disabuse people of great vocabulary?
00:09:00.000 People of the notion that those ideas are more in line with Christian theology and the ideas of liberty, freedom, capitalism, et cetera.
00:09:06.000 So, yeah, I mean, that's, Rob, you can start with it, but okay.
00:09:13.000 I could start with it.
00:09:14.000 I'll just do, I have that one thing.
00:09:16.000 I'll do it.
00:09:16.000 You'll do your one thing, and then I'll, yeah.
00:09:18.000 I'm a one-trick pony, and he's memorized everything I said.
00:09:22.000 Socialism is a violation of two of the Ten Commandments: thou shalt not steal and thou shalt not covet.
00:09:28.000 And socialism is destructive because it appeals to the sinful nature of man.
00:09:33.000 And that's why they're drawn to it.
00:09:34.000 They envy.
00:09:35.000 They want your stuff.
00:09:36.000 And Margaret Sanger said: socialism only works until you run out of the other person's money.
00:09:41.000 Maggie Thatcher.
00:09:42.000 Margaret Thatcher, what'd I say? 1.00
00:09:43.000 Margaret Sanger, that is the planned parent of the world.
00:09:45.000 Well, I had that other thing in my head. 0.99
00:09:48.000 So, yeah, she's terrible.
00:09:50.000 So, you're in class, you're getting an A because you study and you work your tail off.
00:09:54.000 You're getting an F because you don't do squat.
00:09:57.000 But we're going to make you equal.
00:09:59.000 And I'm going to take two grades from you and give them to you.
00:10:02.000 So we're going to bring you up to a C and you're going to have a C and we're going to be equal.
00:10:06.000 What's going to happen is next time you're not going to study as hard.
00:10:08.000 Next time, you're going to be waiting for your grades and you don't care, and productivity will decrease.
00:10:13.000 So that's why you take the fourth greatest nation in the Western hemisphere, Venezuela, that was exporting oil and it was an unbelievable nation to live in.
00:10:18.000 And today, with socialism, they're eating their zoo animals.
00:10:23.000 It says in Jeremiah to pray for the welfare of your nation and want the welfare of your nation to be engaged and involved.
00:10:28.000 There is no way whatsoever anyone could make the argument that neo-Marxist ideas would be the best thing for our country.
00:10:33.000 Some people make those arguments, but that's their real argument: the three types of equality.
00:10:37.000 And again, if we had 40 minutes, I could go through all of this, but that's why we do two podcasts today and two hours of radio a day to go into it.
00:10:43.000 There's three types of equality: there's one that is absolutely necessary, there's one that's desirable, and one that is evil.
00:10:48.000 And we interchange them all the time.
00:10:51.000 And one of the big problems we have in politics today is everyone's talking about different terms at every single time, and things sound good, feel good, they might not mean good, and all of a sudden we're voting for things we don't know, we don't understand, and then we see things we don't like.
00:11:02.000 Okay, so equality under the law, absolutely essential, totally moral.
00:11:07.000 This is something that America was founded on.
00:11:10.000 We didn't live up to this founding immediately, but it's a lot more complex than you might actually, we might actually teach our kids, which is Vermont abolished slavery in 1777.
00:11:19.000 In the United States Constitution, it was an import ban of slaves into the United States.
00:11:22.000 There were no new slaves in the Northwest Territories.
00:11:24.000 But anyway, equality under the law, meaning that in our system, regardless of skin color, regardless of where you come from, that there is no law that one person of one skin color cannot do or one person of culture or language.
00:11:38.000 Equality under law is essential.
00:11:40.000 Absolutely.
00:11:41.000 Civil Rights Act was the moral pursuit of continuing to do that in the 1960s.
00:11:46.000 Okay, equality of opportunity is desirable.
00:11:49.000 It's very hard, but I think that we should strive for it.
00:11:51.000 That's why we should want school choice.
00:11:53.000 We should want to improve the literacy rate.
00:11:55.000 We should want to improve the well-being of our public education system and homeschooling in our country.
00:11:59.000 Now, equality of opportunity.
00:12:01.000 I think we miss all of the conversations on equality of opportunity.
00:12:05.000 We talk about stuff.
00:12:06.000 We talk about healthcare, all that stuff's, I think, distraction.
00:12:08.000 You want to make things more equal from an opportunity?
00:12:11.000 Rebuild the American family.
00:12:13.000 It's that simple.
00:12:15.000 Get fatherlessness in half.
00:12:18.000 A lot of these conversations that happen in our country are just downstream from the broken family.
00:12:24.000 The family is the most, the most proven, the most effective way to fight against poverty, get one generation to get richer, get wealthier, happier, least likely to fall into poverty, fall into prison.
00:12:37.000 And you see, socioeconomic groups in America with the highest fatherlessness have the highest levels then of crime, poverty, so on and so forth.
00:12:46.000 So how do we actually rebuild the American family?
00:12:48.000 Number one, we got to tell men to start taking responsibility for their actions.
00:12:51.000 It's that simple. 1.00
00:12:55.000 Number two, we have to stop subsidizing single motherhood in this country. 0.99
00:13:01.000 We do it in a variety of different ways. 1.00
00:13:03.000 We do it in Section 3 housing.
00:13:05.000 We do it in government-sponsored welfare.
00:13:07.000 I could go on to this indefinitely, but that's one of the major reasons that that is one of the biggest pushers.
00:13:13.000 Then finally, there's equality of outcome.
00:13:15.000 Sounds good.
00:13:17.000 Awful idea.
00:13:18.000 No one should ever want equality of outcome. 1.00
00:13:20.000 It's unbiblical. 0.82
00:13:21.000 It's against the Matthew principle. 0.77
00:13:23.000 It's impossible.
00:13:24.000 It's immoral.
00:13:25.000 It's utopian in nature.
00:13:27.000 And it's something that we should never engage in.
00:13:29.000 Here's why.
00:13:30.000 Every single person in this room, if I gave you $50, would do something different within 24 hours.
00:13:36.000 Some would invest it, some would save it, some would pour into it.
00:13:38.000 We know this in a parable of the talents.
00:13:41.000 Jesus taught us very clearly that when you are given something, everyone will treat it differently, and the person who multiplies it will be rewarded most faithfully and most generously.
00:13:51.000 Equality of outcome is you inserting yourself into somebody else's actions and taking it from them and saying, I don't care that you worked hard, had a good idea, sacrificed, or you went ahead.
00:14:01.000 Now, equality of outcome is very, very dangerous because then all of a sudden you start to throw rocks at the top of the building instead of wanting to fix the elevator.
00:14:09.000 So those are the three types of equality.
00:14:10.000 I could get into critical race theory and all that, but I think we're almost running out of time.
00:14:14.000 So we'll take one more question.
00:14:16.000 How much time do we have, Jen?
00:14:18.000 Five minutes.
00:14:18.000 Let's do one more question.
00:14:20.000 If you had an hour, I could do critical race theory, but that's...
00:14:22.000 It's really good. 0.86
00:14:23.000 Can you do it in five minutes?
00:14:24.000 I mean...
00:14:26.000 Do it.
00:14:27.000 I mean, look, critical race theory.
00:14:29.000 This is so important right now, and nobody's articulated better than Charlie.
00:14:32.000 Yeah, so critical race theory is really what BLM Incorporated is, it's what they're espousing.
00:14:37.000 Critical race theory started in the 1960s by a thinker from the Frankfurt School by the name of Herbert Marcuse.
00:14:43.000 And there's five big attributes of critical race theory, all five of which are directly against the teachings of the Bible.
00:14:48.000 Number one, they think melanin matters.
00:14:51.000 They think your skin color actually matters.
00:14:53.000 I don't.
00:14:53.000 I think your skin color is irrelevant.
00:14:55.000 I don't care about your skin color. 0.98
00:14:56.000 I care about your character. 0.87
00:14:58.000 I don't care.
00:14:58.000 It's completely and totally irrelevant.
00:15:01.000 Yeah, your immutable characteristics should not define you.
00:15:04.000 We should not judge people based on that.
00:15:06.000 We broke away from that.
00:15:07.000 We made good and real progress from that.
00:15:10.000 And now there's a movement to regress us back into judging people based on the color of their skin.
00:15:14.000 That's number one.
00:15:15.000 Number two, it's a belief that racism is everywhere.
00:15:18.000 It's in the air.
00:15:19.000 You turn over a rock, there's racism.
00:15:20.000 Every person, whether they know it or not know it, conscious and unconscious, they're exhibiting some form of racism.
00:15:27.000 It's in the bones of our superstructure.
00:15:29.000 This is complete and total nonsense.
00:15:31.000 And I could prove it to you. 0.96
00:15:32.000 I could prove it to you.
00:15:33.000 If America was absolutely racist down to the core, why is it that Nigerian Americans are the richest, wealthiest immigrant group in America over the last 20 years? 0.98
00:15:43.000 Nigerian Americans are black.
00:15:45.000 It's because Nigerian Americans do three things really, really well. 0.95
00:15:48.000 They value education.
00:15:50.000 They stay loyally married.
00:15:52.000 And they also have the highest business startups per capita of any immigrant group in the country.
00:15:57.000 If America was so rotten to the core, why is it that 3 million black Americans since 1980 have legally immigrated to this country?
00:16:04.000 1 million from the Caribbean, 2 million from Africa.
00:16:06.000 I'm not doubting that there's people out there.
00:16:08.000 And by the way, if there's anyone in this audience that harbors racial prejudice or has racism, you got work to do.
00:16:13.000 You got people to apologize for.
00:16:15.000 You got a God to atone to.
00:16:17.000 You got to ask Jesus Christ to forgive your sins.
00:16:19.000 I mean that. 0.51
00:16:20.000 However, however, if that is not you, then you don't have anything to apologize for based on the color of your skin. 0.55
00:16:29.000 This group guilt apology based on tribal group is anti-biblical.
00:16:35.000 It ruins and completely interrupts the vertical relationship that we need with Jesus Christ.
00:16:40.000 And it categorizes people based on just your skin color.
00:16:43.000 What a lazy, sloppy way to judge people, right?
00:16:47.000 I mean, how about a little bit of nuance?
00:16:49.000 How about believing that people can have different beliefs, different worldviews, different values?
00:16:54.000 Okay, that's number two.
00:16:54.000 Number three, it's totalitarian in nature.
00:16:57.000 If you don't post the black square, you're a bad person. 0.99
00:17:00.000 White silence is violence. 0.99
00:17:02.000 You guys have heard this?
00:17:03.000 That all of a sudden, that if you don't speak out, we're going to judge you.
00:17:07.000 It's not enough that if you say the opposite, it's that if you don't put the sign in your store window, if you don't say this, then all of a sudden we're going to come after you.
00:17:16.000 There's like five or six other attributes, but the fourth I'll say is this, which is the most important.
00:17:20.000 And we'll close with this: they do not want dialogue or speech.
00:17:24.000 It's the most important part of it.
00:17:26.000 Aristotle said, We are the speaking beings.
00:17:28.000 Believe it or not, I can organize every single government in the history of the planet in two buckets.
00:17:34.000 One bucket is those that require persuasion and speaking to get power.
00:17:40.000 The other bucket is those that use force to get power.
00:17:44.000 It's that simple.
00:17:45.000 So, for example, in order for us to elect a new governor, you have to have good arguments and you have to be on the right side of it and convince people.
00:17:53.000 It's not who has the most amount of standing militia members.
00:17:56.000 You have to convince people.
00:17:58.000 What does that take?
00:17:59.000 It takes speech.
00:18:00.000 We take this for granted.
00:18:01.000 It takes tough conversations.
00:18:03.000 It takes discourse.
00:18:05.000 It takes a dialectic.
00:18:06.000 They don't want that.
00:18:07.000 Instead, they believe that speech is an expression of a cisonormative, fallow, logo-centric Western construct.
00:18:16.000 If that stuff goes over your head, you're like, I don't understand, it's okay. 0.98
00:18:19.000 It's a bunch of rubbish, okay? 0.99
00:18:21.000 By the way, that's kind of like the fifth thing: is that if you think you're like, none of this stuff makes any sense, am I stupid? 0.99
00:18:27.000 No, no, no, they are. 0.94
00:18:28.000 Don't worry, okay?
00:18:29.000 Like, it's designed, it's designed to make you feel like you're missing something and you're actually not.
