00:01:23.000 At Turning Point Action, Turning Point USA, we have hosted President Donald Trump over 15 times in the last couple of years.
00:01:30.000 We are no stranger to events.
00:01:32.000 But on Friday, it was in a league of its own.
00:01:35.000 Sometimes you are in the right place at the right time.
00:01:38.000 And the Trump campaign reached out, said, hey, do you want to partner with this deal?
00:01:42.000 You guys take the pre-program, help crowd build.
00:01:45.000 I said, of course, absolutely.
00:01:46.000 And in the days that were coming, we started to see some headlines that RFK was doing a press conference in Phoenix, and President Trump was coming to Phoenix, and could it be possible that there was going to be a merging of forces?
00:01:59.000 I was not read into any behind-the-scenes details, and credit to the Trump campaign, they played it like cool hand Luke.
00:02:06.000 They played it close to the chest.
00:02:07.000 They had a separate entrance for RFK to go through.
00:02:09.000 No one even saw him enter.
00:02:10.000 He was relegated off to the side.
00:02:12.000 No one knew if it was actually going to happen until the moment that he took the stage.
00:02:16.000 I had about a 20 minute heads up.
00:02:17.000 That's about maybe a 20 minute heads up.
00:02:20.000 What happened on Friday was a complete game change.
00:02:25.000 A game change that outshined the DNC.
00:02:27.000 This weekend, the media networks were not talking about how wonderful Chicago was, how Kamala Harris did this incredible speech.
00:02:34.000 Instead, many of the headlines in the news networks were emphasizing, and were talking about, How RFK, a Kennedy, the namesake of Bobby Kennedy, has now endorsed Donald Trump for the presidency.
00:02:52.000 Let's take a step back.
00:02:53.000 Who is RFK?
00:02:54.000 I have a lot of respect for RFK.
00:02:56.000 I have for quite some time.
00:02:58.000 RFK is the son of Bobby Kennedy.
00:03:02.000 Remember, Bobby Kennedy is the brother of JFK.
00:03:05.000 Bobby Kennedy was the Attorney General under JFK.
00:03:08.000 Bobby Kennedy ran for president after his brother was assassinated.
00:03:13.000 He was also a senator from New York.
00:03:16.000 Bobby Kennedy was shot in the back of a kitchen by Saran Saran, so RFK being the son of Bobby Kennedy had both his father and his uncle shot in a political assassination way.
00:03:29.000 RFK became a lawyer, and he is an environmentalist.
00:03:33.000 Now, he's not one of those worship-the-earth environmentalists.
00:03:36.000 In the past, he's said some things that are a little bit cringe, that I don't necessarily agree with, but he's someone that loves nature, loves God's creation.
00:03:44.000 He loves the natural beauty.
00:03:47.000 RFK Became a lawyer trying to sue major corporations that he believed were polluting the environment.
00:03:54.000 Okay.
00:03:55.000 That then got him into the space where he realized that there was a chronic childhood disease epidemic in this country.
00:04:02.000 That autism used to be 1 in a couple thousand kids and now it's 1 in 23 in the state of California.
00:04:08.000 So RFK got into the space of, hey, is it possible that the 72 vaccines Shots that we have on the vaccination schedule might be too much.
00:04:17.000 Maybe we are getting too many vaccines for too many reasons that got labeled as anti-vax and in some ways RFK was kind of put out to the fringes of American political discourse for about a decade.
00:04:28.000 I didn't think he was on the fringes, but a lot of people consider him to be persona non grata and don't take him seriously.
00:04:33.000 But during COVID, RFK saw a resurgence.
00:04:36.000 He wrote the definitive book, which is The Truth About Anthony Fauci.
00:04:42.000 And that book is wonderful.
00:04:44.000 It exposes Who Anthony Fauci is.
00:04:47.000 It exposes the pharmaceutical industrial complex and the CDC, the FDA, how all these different forms of government, all these different aspects of our federal government work in tandem to support the corporate healthcare oligarchy.
00:05:03.000 RFK during COVID was censored by the CDC, censored by the FDA, where the CDC and the FDA went to Facebook and said, censor RFK.
00:05:12.000 He's speaking out too much.
00:05:13.000 Censor him.
00:05:14.000 He is saying things that we don't like.
00:05:15.000 He was a pioneer for early treatments against school closures.
00:05:19.000 Everything that RFK said during COVID ended up being proven correct.
00:05:23.000 RFK then decided to run for president, but first he decided to run for president as a Democrat.
00:05:29.000 He wanted to challenge Joe Biden.
00:05:30.000 A Kennedy against Joe Biden?
00:05:32.000 Why not?
00:05:33.000 But the Democrat Party acted like a mafia.
00:05:35.000 They did not act like a political party that was concerned about democracy.
00:05:39.000 They did not allow RFK to debate.
00:05:41.000 They did not give RFK any sort of airtime on media.
00:05:45.000 They did not allow RFK to be on the ballot.
00:05:47.000 They sued and they And they basically exiled him and said, we do not want you to be part of the Democrat Party.
00:05:53.000 RFK saw that the Democrat Party was no longer the party of democracy.
00:05:57.000 He appealed to his fellow Democrats and said, sorry, we don't like you.
00:06:01.000 Get out of here.
00:06:02.000 So RFK said, fine, I will run as an independent.
00:06:05.000 Famously said, declare your independence.
00:06:07.000 Very difficult to be able to get on the ballot.
00:06:09.000 difficult to be able to have your name out as an independent candidate.
00:06:14.000 He did a very good job, did a lot of over-the-top interviews, did a lot of
00:06:17.000 podcasting and still got some media coverage, but not nearly enough.
00:06:21.000 RFK was bootstrapping his way along. He did a podcast with us, by the way,
00:06:27.000 very nice conversation back in December, about eight months ago.
00:06:30.000 And RFK was taking from Trump. He was taking from Biden. He was taking from Harris. He was taking.
00:06:37.000 It wasn't really clear, but ever since Kamala Harris became the nominee,
00:06:41.000 RFK was definitely taking more from Donald Trump than from Kamala Harris.
00:06:47.000 But R of K...
00:06:49.000 Represent someone who is skeptical of the current power structures in our country.
00:06:55.000 Skeptical of the big banks, big corporations.
00:06:58.000 Skeptical of big government.
00:06:59.000 Skeptical of the CIA, the FBI.
00:07:02.000 Skeptical of the Department of Justice, lawfare, the war machine, the censorship leviathan.
00:07:07.000 Censorship of the corruption we see in DC.
00:07:10.000 And so you have two options.
00:07:12.000 One is Kamala Harris, who is a high trust of institutions candidate.
00:07:16.000 Kamala Harris, who believes that our institutions are not broken but are wonderful and should be worshipped, they should be adorned, they should be given more support, more money to the government, more power to DC, more power to the major corporations.
00:07:30.000 That is the Kamala Harris message.
00:07:31.000 That our institutions are terrific and need no changes whatsoever.
00:07:36.000 Donald Trump, of course, is an insurgent.
00:07:38.000 Donald Trump represents the people, we the people, to take back our government.
00:07:43.000 It is a challenge against the ruling class.
00:07:46.000 Donald Trump understands that citizen-led government will reclaim this nation.
00:07:51.000 RFK and Donald Trump disagree on a lot of different issues, but they agree on the big stuff.
00:07:56.000 They agree that we should have a reset of the U.S.
00:07:58.000 Constitution.
00:07:59.000 They agree that the citizen is being squeezed by the current power centers in this country.
00:08:07.000 And they also have the same enemies.
00:08:09.000 Bobby Kennedy looks very favorably on Trump as someone who survived an assassination attempt.
00:08:13.000 JFK did not survive.
00:08:15.000 His father did not survive.
00:08:16.000 But Donald Trump did.
00:08:18.000 And RFK is a Democrat scorned.
00:08:23.000 RFK saw that his beloved Democrat Party, he is a Kennedy after all, from Hyannisport, Massachusetts.
00:08:30.000 The Camelot Castle.
00:08:31.000 But there is a defector from Camelot.
00:08:33.000 And that is another thing that RFK and Donald Trump have in common.
00:08:36.000 They are class traitors.
00:08:38.000 They both were amongst the high society.
00:08:41.000 The Kennedys.
00:08:42.000 The Trumps.
00:08:43.000 The billionaires and they decided to defect from the lifestyle, the comfort of said ruling class and go fight for the American people.
00:08:56.000 RFK made a courageous announcement on Friday that culminated at our event.
00:09:00.000 Let's show B-roll from our event.
00:09:02.000 I believe it was one of the best produced events in recent memory that we've seen.
00:09:06.000 That's a picture from our event.
00:09:08.000 Well over 17,000 people that attended our event in Phoenix, Arizona.
00:09:14.000 With thousands and thousands of people in the overflow.
00:09:17.000 This was a game change that completely outshined the DNC.
00:09:21.000 It was a game change that showed that the DNC was just a distant memory.
00:09:25.000 This is real.
00:09:26.000 RFK has pledged to take himself off the ballot in the key battleground states and to actively campaign for Donald Trump.
00:09:32.000 I will tell you exactly what that means for Donald Trump's candidacy.
00:09:36.000 How many new votes that will mean for Donald Trump.
00:09:39.000 What that means in Arizona, in Georgia, in Pennsylvania.
00:09:42.000 We're also going to hear from RFK himself from what he said on Friday.
00:09:46.000 Talking against the censorship organs of the federal government.
00:09:50.000 Talking about the need for a restoration of freedom of speech.
00:09:53.000 And you see that picture there?
00:09:54.000 Donald Trump and RFK on stage together.
00:09:57.000 It is the Unity Party against the Uniparty.
00:10:04.000 Hey everybody, Charlie Kirk here.

00:11:08.000 RFK was brought up on stage at our event on Friday, which is going down, and people are saying it's one of the most successful events that we've seen in quite some time.
00:11:18.000 You think you do event, you do event, you do event, but to actually have a third-party candidate endorse Donald Trump on stage, a Kennedy, mind you, a Kennedy endorse Donald Trump, it's a game-changer.
00:11:33.000 I gotta say that production value is pretty good as well.
00:11:36.000 Let's listen to RFK in his own words, talking about making America healthy again, tackling the chronic disease epidemic.
00:11:46.000 In this clip, he mentions Kelly and Casey Means.
00:11:50.000 This is RFK's mission statement, to make America healthy again, to restore the health of this country.
00:11:57.000 To make us eat better, to no longer be poisoned by the big ag companies and the big food companies.
00:12:03.000 Why is it that half, half of all children in America are obese?
00:12:08.000 50%.
00:12:10.000 3% of all kids are obese.
00:12:10.000 In Japan, 3%.
00:12:12.000 50 versus 3.
00:12:13.000 50 versus 3.
00:12:13.000 3% of all kids are obese.
00:12:15.000 50 versus 3. 50 versus 3. Why is that?
00:12:20.000 Something is happening in our food supply.
00:12:23.000 RFK's number one mission is restoring the health of America.
00:12:28.000 Make America healthy again.
00:12:31.000 Let's play Cut 19.
00:12:33.000 I feel a moral obligation to use this opportunity to save millions of American children, above all things.
00:12:42.000 In case some of you don't realize how dire the condition is of our children's health and chronic disease in general, I would urge you to view Dr. Carlson's recent interview with Callie Means and his sister, Dr. Casey Means, who is the top graduate of her class at Stanford Medical School.
00:13:02.000 This is an issue that affects all of us far more directly and urgently than any culture war issue and all the other issues that we obsess on and that are tearing apart our country.
00:13:14.000 This is the most important issue.
00:13:17.000 RFK reached out to both Donald Trump and Kamala Harris to have this discussion about making America healthy again.
00:13:26.000 Otherwise known as MAHA.
00:13:28.000 Play cut 22.
00:13:29.000 Following my first discussion with President Trump, I tried unsuccessfully to open similar discussions with Vice President Harris.
00:13:39.000 Vice President Harris declined to meet or even to speak with me.
00:13:45.000 Vice President Harris declined to meet or to even speak with RFK about making America healthy again.
00:13:53.000 We must understand that RFK is a crusader for restoring the health of this country, but also making sure that we can speak freely.
00:14:03.000 Just this last weekend, the founder and CEO of Telegram, an app I use all day every day, literally all day long, has been arrested in France.
00:14:13.000 The party of democracy, the party that RFK is now waging a war against, is the party of restricting freedom of speech, restricting the free flow of ideas.
00:14:21.000 Free speech is not a left-wing value.
00:14:24.000 Free speech is not a value of the Democrat Party.
00:14:26.000 And what RFK is doing is he is putting the Democrat Party on trial.
00:14:31.000 RFK is putting Team Blue on defense.
00:14:35.000 And what better person than a Kennedy Who was running around the Oval Office as a kid, literally, in his uncle's Oval Office.
00:14:46.000 Bobby Jr.
00:14:47.000 The namesake of Bobby Kennedy, saying the Democrat Party is against the American people.
00:14:53.000 You do not have to agree with everything RFK believes in.
00:14:56.000 I don't.
00:14:57.000 But you have to give him credit for his courage, his patriotism, To go up against the machine of the Democrat Party that he was raised in, saying that this party is an existential threat to the country, which it is, play cut 15.
00:15:15.000 The whole basis of American democracy is the free flow of information.
00:15:19.000 And we know that a government that can silence its opponents has license for any kind of atrocity.
00:15:32.000 And can you think of any time that you can look back in history and say that the people who were censoring were the good guys?
00:15:43.000 They're always the bad guys.
00:15:46.000 Because it's always the first step down that slippery slope to totalitarianism.
00:15:51.000 I'm sorry, I can't get over the fact I'm watching a clip of a Kennedy, Bobby Jr.
00:15:57.000 speaking with a Trump-Vance logo in front of him.
00:16:02.000 We are seeing the combination effect, Elon Musk, Tulsi Gabbard, RFK Jr., of forces combined to fight back against the tyranny we're living under.
00:16:14.000 I want to read RFK's viral Twitter post over the weekend.
00:16:17.000 RFK explained what MAGA really means.
00:16:20.000 I have a MAGA hat right here.
00:16:21.000 I'm going to wear my MAGA hat as I read RFK's post.
00:16:24.000 And by the way, you can get your MAGA hat at members.charliekirk.com.
00:16:28.000 RFK writes, what MAGA really means.
00:16:31.000 The phrase has troubled liberals who think it's a call to return to an America before civil rights, gay rights, and women's rights.
00:16:38.000 It's obvious that he's a liberal writing this.
00:16:38.000 Now let me pause.
00:16:41.000 I wouldn't have written it that way at all.
00:16:43.000 That's okay.
00:16:44.000 Welcome aboard, RFK.
00:16:46.000 Our movement is ascendant.
00:16:47.000 Politics is about multiplication and addition, not division and subtraction.
00:16:51.000 I love that we have differences.
00:16:53.000 I would have wrote that first sentence a lot differently.
00:16:56.000 Okay.
00:16:57.000 Because I don't believe different groups get different rights.
00:16:59.000 I don't think there's gay rights.
00:17:00.000 There are human rights.
00:17:02.000 That's okay.
00:17:03.000 We have a difference of opinion there.
00:17:04.000 But I have a more generous interpretation, RFK writes, one that is true to my experience of Donald Trump as he is today.
00:17:11.000 Make America Great Again recalls a nation brimming with vitality, with a can-do spirit, with hope and a belief in itself.
00:17:18.000 It was an America that was beginning to confront its darker shadows, could acknowledge the injustice in its past and present, yet at the same time could celebrate its successes.
00:17:29.000 It was a nation of broad prosperity, the world's most vibrant middle class, and an idealistic belief, though not consistently applied, in freedom, justice, and democracy.
00:17:39.000 Now, we are a republic, but I'm going to let him just go, because I think he's cooking on this.
00:17:43.000 It was a nation that led the world in innovation, productivity, and technology.
00:17:48.000 And it was the healthiest country in the world.
00:17:50.000 Now we are one of the sickest countries in the world.
00:17:52.000 I've talked to many Trump supporters.
00:17:54.000 I've talked with his inner circle.
00:17:56.000 I've talked to the man himself.
00:17:58.000 This is the America they want to restore.
00:18:01.000 Amen.
00:18:02.000 That's exactly what RFK believes in.
00:18:05.000 That's what we believe in.
00:18:07.000 Is a restoration of a great country.
00:18:09.000 A restoration of the greatest nation ever to exist in the history of the world.
00:18:13.000 We want to be back to a country that doesn't leave 80 billion dollars in military equipment for the Taliban.
00:18:19.000 We want to go back to a country that does not allow 10 million people to walk across our southern border.
00:18:24.000 We want to go back to a country where half our kids are not obese.
00:18:27.000 We want to go back to a country where we are not depressed and suicidal and anxious and alcohol addicted and slaves of the pharmaceutical industrial complex.
00:18:36.000 And look at this merger of forces.
00:18:40.000 RFK loves America.
00:18:41.000 He's not a stooge of the World Economic Forum or the World Health Organization or the New World Order.
00:18:46.000 He's a nightmare for the Great Reset.
00:18:48.000 We can stretch out MAHA to appeal to voters that might not like Trump.
00:18:54.000 I can tell you right now, in Arizona, there are a lot of independent MAHA voters.
00:19:00.000 Make America healthy again.
00:19:02.000 Who think that it's crazy that we're giving kids high fructose corn syrup and processed foods at every single meal?
00:19:11.000 RFK continues, let's say here, about war.
00:19:14.000 Very important.
00:19:16.000 Donald Trump has been clear that he will end the Ukrainian war.
00:19:22.000 RFK said that if it was just this one issue, it is worth embracing and endorsing Donald Trump.
00:19:27.000 Kamala Harris is a warmonger.
00:19:30.000 She should terrify you, by the way.
00:19:32.000 She's one of the scariest human beings to run for the presidency, probably in American history.
00:19:37.000 She was beating her chest at the DNC more hawkish than McCain, more aggressive than George W. Bush.
00:19:47.000 RFK is lamenting and is criticizing.
00:19:52.000 That the Democrat Party has become the party of war, censorship, and corruption.
00:19:57.000 And he is right.
00:19:58.000 Because he's seen it from within.
00:20:01.000 He's viewed the monster in the eyes.
00:20:07.000 Are you ready to lose weight but not sure where to start?
00:20:08.000 I understand.
00:20:09.000 I was right where you are two years ago.
00:20:11.000 Let me tell you why I chose the PhD Weight Loss and Nutrition program.
00:20:14.000 First, Dr. Ashley Lucas has her PhD in Chronic Disease and Sports Nutrition.
00:20:18.000 Her program is based on years of research and is science-based.
00:20:21.000 Second, the PhD program starts in nutrition.
00:20:23.000 There is so much more.
00:20:24.000 They know that 90% of permanent change comes from the mind, and they work on eliminating
00:20:28.000 the reason you gained this weight in the first place.
00:20:30.000 There's no shortcuts, pills, or injections, just solid science-based nutrition and behavior
00:20:33.000 change.
00:20:34.000 And finally, and probably most importantly, I lost 30 pounds.
00:20:37.000 Look, they're amazing.
00:20:38.000 If you want to lose weight, you've got to go to myphdweightloss.com.

00:21:00.000 Her program is based on years of research and is science-based.

00:21:20.000 Let's play Cut 23, please.
00:21:22.000 Last summer it looked like no candidate was willing to negotiate a quick end to the Ukraine war, to tackle chronic disease epidemic, to protect free speech, our constitutional freedoms, to clean corporate influence out of our government, or to defy the neocons and their agenda of endless military adventurism.
00:21:43.000 But now one of the two candidates has adopted these issues as his own.
00:21:49.000 To the point where he has asked to enlist me in his administration.
00:21:55.000 I'm speaking, of course, of Donald Trump.
00:21:57.000 To enlist him in his administration.
00:22:01.000 You are seeing the Avengers Squad.
00:22:04.000 The pro-American, patriotic, pro-liberty Avengers Squad come together.
00:22:10.000 Elon Musk on government efficiency.
00:22:12.000 Tulsi Gabbard against neoconservatism and war.
00:22:16.000 RFK on public health.
00:22:19.000 JD Vance on the inner workings of government and getting the legislative agenda all set.
00:22:25.000 David Sachs on technology.
00:22:27.000 We have an avenger squad of changemakers that are going to take back this government from the deep state bureaucrats that are currently squeezing it.
00:22:36.000 From the unelected, unknown, unchecked, previously unchallengeable bureaucrats that are ruining this country.
00:22:46.000 And this is why they now fear the Trump movement.
00:22:48.000 And guess what?
00:22:49.000 Now it's like, okay, if they take out Trump, you got four more.
00:22:51.000 This movement is now decentralized.
00:22:53.000 This movement has become bigger than Trump.
00:22:55.000 It is a message of we the people taking back the government from the rotten core that it has become.
00:23:02.000 From the kingdom of Washington, D.C.
00:23:05.000 Now the media is not really sure what to deal with this.
00:23:07.000 Because they thought there was going to be an uninterrupted coronation parade.
00:23:12.000 It was going to be uninterrupted.
00:23:14.000 Wow, wasn't Tim Walz great?
00:23:15.000 Wasn't Obama great?
00:23:16.000 Wasn't the DNC?
00:23:17.000 Boom!
00:23:18.000 Friday, at turning point, it all changed.
00:23:21.000 Friday at the Turning Point Action Trump event, when we drew one of the largest crowds in Phoenix political history.
00:23:27.000 By the way, none of the local media gave Trump the credit for what he did.
00:23:31.000 One of the largest, I think the largest political event in Phoenix history.
00:23:35.000 In Arizona history.
00:23:36.000 Can we show the picture again?
00:23:37.000 Every single seat filled in the same arena, by the way, that Kamala Harris did her event a couple weeks prior, and she was not able to fill it all up.
00:23:46.000 No, no, no, Kamala Harris She only had about 10,000 people.
00:23:52.000 And that was right after her announcement.
00:23:53.000 Her first visit ever to the state.
00:23:55.000 And they had to partition off the top row.
00:23:57.000 They had to... Donald Trump filled every single seat.
00:24:02.000 It looked like an NBA playoff game.
00:24:04.000 Kamala Harris also lied.
00:24:06.000 She said she had 15,000 people.
00:24:08.000 No, no, no.
00:24:09.000 The event staff at the Desert Diamond Arena said, no, no, Kamala Harris had only 10,000 people, not 15,000.
00:24:17.000 She lied about how many people actually came to the event.
00:24:21.000 We had to turn away at least 6,000 people, by the way.
00:24:25.000 6,000 people we had to turn away.
00:24:26.000 So, all in all, there were over 20,000 people that came and attended Desert Diamond Arena.
00:24:33.000 Kamala Harris drew half of that, and then lied about it.
00:24:37.000 Kamala Harris went to the media.
00:24:38.000 Oh, we drew 15,000 people.
00:24:39.000 The event came to us and said, no, we tally everyone that comes in.
00:24:42.000 She drew 10,200.
00:24:44.000 She's been lying to the media.
00:24:45.000 Oh, just another lie by Kamala Harris.
00:24:47.000 The event venue themselves said, no, Kamala Harris didn't draw anything close to what she's saying publicly.
00:24:53.000 But she lies and she gets away with it.
00:24:55.000 So what does this now mean for the election?
00:24:58.000 It is significant.
00:25:00.000 CNN Aaron Burnett went through the math for the viewers.
00:25:04.000 That now that RFK is no longer going to be on the ballot, and RFK is embracing Trump, which is the natural fit, by the way.
00:25:10.000 If you are an RFK voter, you're not going to go vote for Kamala Harris, who's telling you about more war, more censorship, more power for the government, and no border.
00:25:21.000 It's a more natural fit.
00:25:23.000 It is an easier evolution.
00:25:26.000 It's an easier transfer to go from RFK to Trump than RFK to Harris.
00:25:30.000 And the Democrats know it.
00:25:32.000 Play CNN.
00:25:32.000 Play Cut16.
00:25:34.000 Today, RFK Jr.
00:25:35.000 had suspended his campaign, endorsing Trump.
00:25:37.000 Kennedy telling reporters that Trump had asked him to, quote, enlist him in his administration.
00:25:42.000 Now, the latest swing state polls show Kennedy with 5 or 6 percent of the vote.
00:25:48.000 And so when you think about it overall, you may say, well, that's not a big deal.
00:25:50.000 Actually, if that is the case in swing states, it is huge.
00:25:53.000 It is everything.
00:25:54.000 It is more than the margin between Harris and Trump in some of those same states.
00:25:59.000 More than enough to make the difference.
00:26:01.000 Understand that according to certain calculations, according to some of the formulas, this could be a net 40,000 new votes in Arizona alone.
00:26:13.000 40,000 votes alone in Arizona.
00:26:17.000 This could make the difference of the entire election.
00:26:19.000 And more broadly, this is now a theme that any free thinking Democrat can now look at the election and say, huh?
00:26:28.000 Wow.
00:26:30.000 RFK, Englund, Tulsi Gabbard, David Sachs.
00:26:35.000 These are free-thinking Democrats that have all embraced Donald Trump and our movement.
00:26:40.000 That are no longer part of the DNC cabal.
00:26:44.000 Any honest Democrat in the country should leave the Democrat Party and join our movement.
00:26:50.000 And one moment during my speech I said, how many former Democrats do we have?
00:26:53.000 And thousands of hands went up at our event.
00:26:56.000 Thousands of hands.
00:26:58.000 Our movement is full of former Democrats, Independents, former Bernie Sanders people, and it doesn't matter.
00:27:04.000 It does not matter what you once were.
00:27:06.000 We are adding and growing, and they are decreasing, and they are what they are.
00:27:13.000 Is very, very paranoid.
00:27:15.000 According to Tony Fabrizio, an expert pollster, Kennedy's vote share would be a plus 25% boost in Arizona, plus 13% boost in Georgia, plus 36% boost in North Carolina, a 50% boost in Nevada, a 13% boost in Pennsylvania, and a 30% boost in Wisconsin.
00:27:36.000 We're talking about 10,000 votes here, 20,000 votes here, 13,000 votes here.
00:27:38.000 Major.
00:27:43.000 And credit to where credit is due, to RFK for his courage to do something that I know that was not easy, that I know his family was opposing him, to go against the Democrat Party and say, I don't recognize you.
00:27:54.000 I'm going to do something that Kennedy has never done because he put country above the Democrat Party.
00:28:00.000 You saw Donald Trump survive an assassination attempt by two centimeters and a Kennedy endorse a Republican.
00:28:07.000 Yes, there is a God and you are not him.
00:28:09.000 Miracles do happen.
00:28:11.000 Frank Luntz is analyzing this race.
00:28:13.000 I'm not the biggest Frank Luntz fan.
00:28:14.000 I've actually gotten along with him for years, but he says some goofy stuff sometimes.
00:28:18.000 However, he's correct here.
00:28:20.000 He is analyzing the race as what difference will this make?
00:28:24.000 How many times have you heard me say on this program, it's gonna come down to 30,000 votes, gotta chase the ballots, 40,000 votes, 30,000 votes, 10,000 votes?
00:28:35.000 Well, Frank Luntz knows that this could come down to one point.
00:28:39.000 To give you an idea, Donald Trump fell short in 2020 below half of a point.
00:28:48.000 41,000 votes, ballots over three states.
00:28:51.000 After the DNC, there was a lot of worry.
00:28:53.000 How is Trump going to get back this momentum?
00:28:56.000 This DNC was on, you know, was a major production.
00:29:01.000 I don't think it was that good, but it's fine.
00:29:03.000 Part of it were objectively good for Democrats.
00:29:06.000 How are they going to get the momentum back?
00:29:08.000 This took all the air out of the room and Donald Trump now, it's not just a matter of momentum, this is a structural win.
00:29:15.000 Because now the ballot literally looks differently.
00:29:18.000 Not only is it an embrace, an endorsement, the actual plumbing of the election, the ballot, will no longer have Kennedy on it in Arizona.
00:29:27.000 So you are completely taking that out of the equation.
00:29:29.000 You are creating a binary against Kamala Harris, which is exactly what you want, because Kennedy was taken away from Trump.
00:29:37.000 If you talk to Kennedy voters, they say, who is your second choice?
00:29:42.000 Almost all of them say Donald Trump.
00:29:44.000 Play cut 18.
00:29:45.000 Is this going to really make a difference?
00:29:49.000 It will and it won't.
00:29:51.000 It's probably worth about 1% for Trump.
00:29:53.000 And that 1% could be everything if it's in all the swing states.
00:29:58.000 In the end, the reason why Kennedy was strong 10, 12, even as high as 14% is because he was taking votes away from Joe Biden.
00:30:07.000 Joe Biden's gone.
00:30:08.000 Kamala Harris has replaced him.
00:30:10.000 And his vote collapsed down to about 5, 4, 5%.
00:30:13.000 And what's left?
00:30:15.000 is a Trump vote. Some of them are simply not going to participate in November.
00:30:20.000 Roughly two to one, the ones who are remaining will vote for Trump over Harris, and that's worth
00:30:27.000 a single percent, and a single percent can make the difference in Pennsylvania, Michigan, and
00:30:32.000 Wisconsin. This is not stopping. We have the UNA party and the Unity party.
00:30:38.000 Traditional Kennedy Democrats, welcome aboard.
00:30:41.000 Anti-war Democrats, welcome aboard.
00:30:43.000 Bernie Sanders people worried about deindustrialization, welcome aboard.
00:30:47.000 Immigration hawks, welcome aboard.
00:30:49.000 RFK went on Fox News and said, there's now going to be a series of announcements Of more Democrats joining the program.
00:30:58.000 More Democrats that will be embracing our movement.
00:31:02.000 And that doesn't mean that we're compromising our values.
00:31:04.000 It means that there is a unity to our ethos.
00:31:08.000 We must defeat Team Blue.
00:31:11.000 Defeat Team Blue.
00:31:13.000 We all see the bigger threat.
00:31:15.000 We can debate after the Inauguration.
00:31:17.000 We can have our disagreements after the Inauguration.
00:31:20.000 At the Inaugural Ball, when Donald Trump says, so help me God, we can have a robust debate, and I'll host it on the Charlie Kirk Show, at the Inaugural Ball, with Tulsi, RFK, Russell Brand, Joe Rogan, we'll put them all up on stage and we can have a great debate about weed legalization and other left-wing priorities.
00:31:38.000 I don't care about that.
00:31:40.000 I care about what type of government are we going to live under.
00:31:43.000 One of censorship, corruption, endless war?
00:31:46.000 Play cut 17.
00:31:47.000 President Trump is going to make a series of announcements about other Democrats who are joining his campaign.
00:31:58.000 And, you know, I want to make America healthy again, and so does President Trump.
00:32:06.000 Those are objectives.
00:32:10.000 The Wall Street Journal may be worried about shareholder value for pharmaceutical companies, and I think, you know, I talk specifically This is a anti-war, anti-Big Pharma, anti-invasion, anti-censorship, anti-poisoning of our kids movement.
00:32:25.000 to see healthy children and that he was unconcerned about the other implications.
00:32:33.000 This is a anti-war, anti-Big Pharma, anti-invasion, anti-censorship, anti-poisoning of our kids
00:32:41.000 movement said differently.
00:32:42.000 This is a peace, health, sovereignty, borders, family first movement.
00:32:51.000 We know what we're up against.
00:32:52.000 .
00:32:53.000 And we have different allies than we ever would have expected, but we know who the enemy is.
00:32:58.000 And the enemy is Team Blue.
00:33:00.000 And we know what they're doing to this country.
00:33:02.000 They are poisoning this country, both politically and literally, on a daily basis.
00:33:07.000 And they must be defeated.
00:33:08.000 Welcome to the Kennedys.
00:33:10.000 Welcome to Democrats.
00:33:11.000 Our movement is growing, and it's just getting started.
00:33:14.000 Thanks so much for listening, everybody.
00:33:15.000 Email us, as always, freedom at charliekirk.com.
00:33:17.000 Thanks so much for listening, and God bless.
