00:00:56.000Night three of the Republican National Convention, we have the analysis right here for you.
00:01:15.000His spirit, his love of this country, he's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created, Turning Point USA.
00:01:23.000We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.
00:01:37.000I hope you guys enjoyed the third night of the Republican National Convention.
00:01:41.000What a moment right there with our national anthem.
00:01:44.000There were more disabled veterans standing for the national anthem at that moment than the entire National Basketball Association during their little bubble league.
00:02:21.000Madison Cawthorne, my friend, who is going to be the youngest elected member of Congress if he wins his race in North Carolina, which it sure looks like he will.
00:02:29.000But let's start with Vice President Pence.
00:02:31.000Vice President Pence, first, just the intro, just the setup was incredible.
00:02:35.000If you look at just how he comes right where we won that amazing victory, where our national anthem was inspired by Francis Scott Key, just the, I have to give the convention credit.
00:02:47.000At every single one of these setups, the imagery, the flags, the patriotism, the nationalism has been totally and completely incredible.
00:02:56.000And so Pence was speaking live from Fort McHenry.
00:02:59.000Again, this is the site where the British in 1812 stood for our, where we stood up against the British.
00:03:06.000Let me stood up against the British and our young republic from the onslaught from British troops.
00:03:13.000It is also a place where off the coast of Baltimore Harbor, as a prisoner of the British, Francis Scott Key wrote the Star-Spangled Banner, which people say you're not allowed to say, you know, even recite in our country because it's allegedly racist.
00:03:27.000Pence had some great quotes throughout the speech that the heroes that held this fort stood their life, stood for their life, liberty, and freedom and the American flag.
00:03:37.000But they were hardly ever mentioned at last week's DNC.
00:03:40.000Instead, they took four days attacking America.
00:03:47.000He looked presidential and an amazing personal witness to the president's love of our country and amazing to actually have live applause.
00:03:55.000I think actually having an audience in front of him and also for Melania last night, I think it makes it a lot easier for the audience to connect with what was saying.
00:04:03.000Instead of just people at home saying, yeah, I agree with that.
00:04:06.000You actually have people that are engaging with this speech in real time.
00:04:11.000Other kind of notable quotables is Vice President Pence said, Americans see President Trump in a lot of different ways, but there's no doubt how President Trump sees America.
00:04:21.000I think that was one of the best quotes of the entire convention.
00:04:24.000Another one is that America is a nation that deserves more gratitude than grievance.
00:04:28.000That is similar to something that I said in my speech and other speakers have been saying throughout this convention, that we need to be grateful, not angry, that we live in America.
00:04:37.000Vice President Pence also said, and if you want a president who falls silent while our history and our background is demeaned, Trump is not your man.
00:04:44.000Another one that he said is, in a city known for talkers, President Trump is a doer.
00:04:49.000Now, of course, Vice President Pence oversaw the Chinese coronavirus task force and rightfully pushed back against the false Chinese virus narrative when it came to the ventilators, PPE, and our response to the Chinese attack on our soil.
00:05:05.000But he also acknowledged that there has been real loss, which is very important.
00:05:10.000And this is kind of in the tone of Vice President's 2016 speech, Come On Home, pushing to open up schools.
00:05:17.000He talked about his wife who's a schoolteacher.
00:05:19.000So that's kind of a very intentional slight towards Dr. Jill Biden, who did her entire speech from a classroom, which I actually thought was one of the more effective speeches of the Democrat convention last week.
00:05:31.000Now, also, Vice President Pence said, quote, last week, Vice President Biden didn't say one word about the rioting and the violence on our streets.
00:05:40.000So let me be clear, the violence must stop.
00:05:43.000Whether it's in Minneapolis, Portland, or Kenosha, we will have law and order on our streets of this country for every American of every race, color, and creed.
00:05:52.000And then he gave a beautiful tribute to Officer Dave Patrick Underwood.
00:06:13.000At the end of the speech, of course, President Trump and Melania joined them on stage as Trace Adkins came out and sang the national anthem.
00:06:23.000Disabled American veterans were all throughout the front row.
00:06:26.000And unlike those spoiled brats in the National Basketball Association, they stood to honor our flag and our country.
00:06:32.000We are going to get to the NBA because there's a lot of breaking news happening with the National Basketball Association that ties with Kenosha, which ties to the Republican National Convention.
00:06:40.000I thought it was an incredible cap to the evening from an optics and a patriotism standpoint.
00:06:46.000President Trump and Mike Pence then walked over and joined all of them and took pictures with their supporters.
00:06:51.000So let's kind of go through the evening.
00:06:52.000So first of all, just we want to make sure we mention Hurricane Laura is coming.
00:06:56.000Our thoughts and our prayers are to all people in the southeast, specifically in the Texas-Louisiana border.
00:07:36.000Madison Cawthorne has been on our show here on the Charlie Kirk show twice.
00:07:40.000And before I get more into Madison's remarks, he's a total star.
00:07:43.000He'll be the youngest congressman in American history if elected.
00:07:47.000Same age when James Madison, Madison Madison, signed the Declaration of Independence.
00:07:52.000If you guys email us your questions, freedom at charliekirk.com, and we select your question here on the live stream, then you guys get a signed copy of the New York Times bestseller, The MAGA Doctrine.
00:08:03.000We gave away a bunch of books last night.
00:08:04.000So email us, freedom at charliekirk.com, freedom at charliekirk.com.
00:08:08.000Madison had some of the best lines of the entire convention.
00:08:11.000I think he actually had better lines than I did at certain times.
00:08:39.000Meanwhile, those spoiled brats of the National Basketball Association, LeBron James, and all those other individuals do not stand for our national anthem.
00:08:48.000They kneel in total and complete disrespect to our veterans.
00:08:50.000Yet Madison Cawthorne, who can't stand, stands for the national anthem.
00:08:55.000If a paraplegic can stand for our pledge and our flag, then these millionaires and billionaires that act like they're aggrieved, they can do that.
00:09:04.000Jack Brewer, also a former NFL player and member of Black Voices for Trump, from a political strategy standpoint, there's actually data coming out that shows that the Joe Biden for president campaign is increasingly nervous on how President Trump is making inroads in the black community.
00:09:19.000I want to give credit to Jared Kushner.
00:09:21.000I want to give credit to the entire team that has been focusing on black outreach.
00:09:25.000This has been the most effective Republican convention for going to ask for black people's votes than I've ever seen.
00:09:32.000And it hasn't been doing it in a pandering fashion.
00:09:36.000Jack Brewer had an amazing faith-filled message about binding up racial wounds.
00:09:41.000He ended up with quoting 2 Chronicles 714, quote, if my people who are called by my name will humble themselves and pray and seek my faith and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and I will forgive their sins and heal their land.
00:09:57.000Also, the Chinese civil rights activist, I might mispronounce this, I mean, no disrespect.
00:10:04.000Chen Guang Cheng, I think I pronounced that correctly, a Chinese civil rights activist, incredibly powerful.
00:10:10.000LeBron James should be forced to watch this guy, Cheng Guan Cheng.
00:10:14.000He said, quote, the CCP, the Chinese Communist Party, is an enemy of humanity.
00:10:20.000Very powerful message to send back to the White House and the entire country.
00:10:23.000And did you notice that the Democrats did not have any sort of messaging at all on China?
00:10:27.000Because the Democrats are bought by the Chinese Communist Party.
00:10:30.000The Democrats are a wholly owned subsidiary of Mao Zedong 2.0, who calls himself Xi Jinping.
00:10:38.000Hollywood is bought by the Chinese Communist Party.
00:10:40.000Sports are bought by the Chinese Communist Party.
00:10:42.000All of the movie producers are bought by the Chinese Communist Party, which of course is related to Hollywood.
00:10:47.000Wall Street is bought by the Chinese Communist Party.
00:10:49.000The S ⁇ P 500 and the Dow Jones 30 companies on the industrial average, almost all of them are bought by the Chinese Communist Party.
00:10:56.000This is exactly why the Chinese Communist Party gets so angry when President Trump puts sanctions on China and also why the Chinese Communist Party has immersed themselves so deeply in the Diane Feinstein and the rest of the Democrat leadership.
00:11:12.000Cheng Guang Cheng, total hero, ignored by CNN because CNN is also a partially owned subsidiary of the Chinese Communist Party.
00:11:22.000Now, not literally or materially, but CNN really holds the water for the Chinese Communist Party.
00:11:27.000Andrew Cuomo also helps defend the Chinese Communist Party.
00:11:32.000He calls the Chinese coronavirus the European virus.
00:11:35.000This is where the Democrats stand on the most important issues in our country.
00:11:38.000Lee Zeldin, a dear friend of mine, he gave a phenomenal speech.
00:11:41.000And what I loved about his, I just got to give credit to the Trump campaign.
00:11:46.000The convention, no two speeches are similar.
00:11:49.000Every speech is going after a very specific group communicating under a unified message, a unified narrative.
00:11:55.000Lee Zeldin, who has phenomenal foreign policy credentials, gave a phenomenal defense of how the president's urgent message to the Chinese coronavirus helped his home district and gave kudos to Jared Kushner and the White House team.
00:12:09.000That's going to be one of the left's most ardent and impassioned attacks against the president.
00:12:14.000And it's imperative for the president and the Republican National Committee and the convention to continue to destroy this narrative.
00:12:21.000If you can convince people that the president acted adequately and quickly in response to the Chinese attack on our nation, a viral attack on our nation of how the Chinese Communist Party wanted to destroy America through a pathogen, then Trump's numbers will go up.
00:12:36.000We're also joined tonight by Senator Joni Ernst from Iowa.
00:12:42.000I love the fact that she was actually in front of a tractor, kind of in front of the kind of agricultural base of our country, something that Joe Biden does not believe in and cannot represent.
00:12:52.000And she talked about how the Green New Deal would essentially prohibit animal farming and kill farmers in our country.
00:12:58.000We are also joined tonight at the Republican National Convention by Sam Vigil.
00:13:04.000This is the husband of a woman, Jackie Vigil, who was killed in cold blood by a border-jumping, line-cutting criminal who called himself an immigrant, illegal in Albuquerque.
00:13:17.000Trump and President Trump and Attorney General's Barr's Operation Legend brought her killer and his accomplices to justice.
00:13:26.000The Democrats put illegals on couches during their convention, complaining that they need free stuff from us, the American people.
00:13:34.000And President Donald Trump puts people that lost their loved ones, their spouses, and their wives, because of illegal criminals in our country.
00:13:43.000Who actually stands for the American people?
00:13:47.000And by the way, Kamala Harris is giving some form of a rebuttal to the speech right now, probably waving her hands wildly and cackling her way through the entire speech.
00:13:56.000I'm not going to watch it because I actually want to be with you guys more importantly, but I am going to get notes and I'm going to respond to it in real time.
00:14:03.000It's a very, very powerful counter narrative to the left's on gun violence.
00:14:44.000Finally, we should go after the votes of all Americans, forgotten America.
00:14:50.000He said, I'm a civil rights activist and I'm a Republican.
00:14:52.000By the way, the civil rights era was thanks to Republicans.
00:14:58.000It's Republicans who authored the Civil Rights Act, passed the 13th and the 14th Amendment.
00:15:02.000It was the Republican Party that was founded as an anti-slavery party in Ripon, Wisconsin.
00:15:06.000It's the Republican Party that cares about how people act, what they think, what they do, not what they look like, not in their immutable characteristics.
00:15:15.000I actually think there's going to be a massive halo effect from this strategy.
00:15:18.000Not only do I think that Republicans are going to win over more black votes, but I think they're going to win over more suburban and independent voters because of the president and their focus on trying to win over black voters.
00:15:31.000It's going to give people who think that President Trump is a racist actually comfort in voting for President Trump.
00:15:41.000Former acting director of national intelligence and my friend and current RNC advisor, Rick Rinnell, gave a phenomenal speech.
00:15:48.000You know, the one thing that I felt was missing from the last two evenings, and it's tough because there's only so much time you get, was there was very little to no focus on how Obama and Biden spied on the incoming Trump administration.
00:16:01.000Well, who better to talk about that than Rick Grinnell?
00:16:05.000He talked about Washington politicians and what they did for decades.
00:16:09.000They sent their loved ones to war to go fight for an objective that was not clear so that Washington politicians could demagogue that, get a power trip, expand the national defense apparatus to really a national war apparatus, and put us in perpetual and endless conflict.
00:16:32.000And it certainly is not good for our entire country.
00:16:36.000And so Rick Grinnell said what Matt Gates said the first evening, which is that President Trump is the first president in our lifetime not to start a new war, the first president not to put us into an endless encounter overseas.
00:16:50.000And again, we are taking your questions right here before I get further into Rick Rinnell's speech, freedom at charliekirk.com, freedom at charliekirk.com.
00:16:58.000If you email us your questions and we select your question, then you guys get a signed copy, a free signed copy of the New York Times bestseller, the MAGA Doctrine.
00:17:07.000So Rick Rinnell also talked about the spying.
00:17:10.000He talked about how President Trump was spied on by Joe Biden.
00:17:16.000He had a quote where he said, I saw the roots of the Russia bogus narrative.
00:17:21.000And I could tell you that it was baseless, it was without any sort of evidence, and was targeted at a president that they did not like.
00:17:28.000Obama spied, and then they all covered it up.
00:17:32.000The Democrats never want you to know who's actually in charge, but that's not the case for President Trump.
00:17:37.000Trump puts you in charge, the American people.
00:17:40.000Some of the other speakers that kind of stood out for me tonight, Kaylee McEnany was phenomenal.
00:17:46.000Kaylee McEnany shared her story about testing positive for the BRCA mutation.
00:17:52.000She shared a very touching story about a double masectomy, about how Ivanka Trump was the first person to call her.
00:18:08.000Truly courageous of Kaylee to share this very personal story in order to shed a light on who the president really is.
00:18:15.000The second lady, Karen Pence, who I don't think gets enough credit for the amazing work she does for our country, she talked about Susan B. Anthony and the 19th Amendment and the women's suffrage movement, which was thanks to Republican activism.
00:18:27.000And then Kellyanne Conway, who gave credit to the president for how he stands up for women in his administration.
00:18:33.000And obviously, the RNC is pushing tonight to make gains with suburban women.
00:18:37.000Currently, the president is down about 10 to 12 points in most polls with suburban women.
00:18:41.000If President Trump can make up that deficit with suburban women and black voters and continue to motivate the base of the Republican Party, we are going to beat Joe Biden.
00:18:50.000We're going to get to some polling in just a second.
00:18:53.000Now, Sister Dr. Deidre Byrne, a surgeon and former member of the Little Workers, The Sacred Hearts of Jesus Mary, she gave a very powerful pro-life message.
00:19:03.000She called Donald Trump the most pro-life president ever and then called the Biden-Harris the most radical abortion ticket in history.
00:20:52.000Joe Biden has been on every single issue of every topic, every side of every issue, incorrectly.
00:20:57.000He supported the war in Iraq, then he supported withdrawing from Iraq.
00:21:01.000He supported overthrowing more of Mark Gaddafi.
00:21:03.000He supported not doing anything against ISIS.
00:21:05.000Then he supported sending billions of dollars to Iran and $1 billion of cash straight to Iran so that they could continue to hate our country and fund terrorist proxies to kill our middle-class men and women that are fighting overseas.
00:21:18.000I would encourage everyone to go back and listen to one of my favorite episodes of Charlie Kirk Show when I explained last year why college football is essential to the American ethos.
00:21:28.000Coach Holtz is a picture of the American dream.
00:21:31.000He says he grew up in a one-bedroom shack and is now the definitive voice of college football, speaking at the RNC.
00:21:36.000He's so well respected across the Midwest.
00:21:39.000This was political brilliance by the Trump campaign.
00:21:41.000And a complete reminder that America needs college football back.
00:21:45.000We need college football back right here, right now.
00:21:47.000We don't need the National Basketball Association.
00:21:49.000In fact, they're doing that for us, actually.
00:22:13.000And this segues perfectly to what I want to talk to you right now about Kenosha.
00:22:17.000There were some other great speakers throughout the evening that I want to get to, but I really want to get to Kenosha, what's happening in real time as one of an American city is burning down in front of us.
00:22:26.000And by the way, please email us your questions: freedom at charliekirk.com, freedom at charliekirk.com.
00:22:31.000And if we select your question, you guys get a signed copy of the New York Times bestseller, The MAGA Doctrine.
00:22:41.000Well, I want to just read some facts because the media is lying to you.
00:22:44.000The activist media is lying to you in real time.
00:22:47.000Julie Bossman, you guys can see their tweets for yourself at Julie Bossman.
00:22:51.000Let's just walk through the facts of what is happening in Kenosha, Wisconsin.
00:22:55.000Number one, here, let's go back in time.
00:22:58.000The Wisconsin Department of Justice Division of Criminal Investigation, which is investigating the shooting of Jacob Blake, is offering an initial account of what happened on Sunday.
00:23:06.000Number one, according to the Department of Justice, Kenosha Police Department officers were dispatched to a residence in the 2800 block of 40th Street after a female caller reported that her boyfriend was present and was not supposed to be on the premises.
00:23:52.000In fact, we could go as far as say the media is lying to you.
00:23:55.000The activist media is going out of their way to lie to you.
00:23:58.000The media is not telling you that Jacob Blake was there because he was committing a crime and his girlfriend called the police because she felt unsafe.
00:24:08.000Now, I'm going to get to a minute exactly what happened from there, and I'm not saying it was justified to shoot him in the back, but the lack of nuance when we talk about these sorts of issues and saying that we should cancel all basketball because of this, because some guy who's a known criminal who violates that order to go to his girlfriend and then resists arrest from a taser.
00:24:55.000However, when your adrenaline is pumping and someone's going to a car to go grab what actually has turned out to be a weapon, be very careful how you judge these situations.
00:25:05.000During the investigation following the initial incident, Mr. Blake admitted that he had a knife in his possession, a lethal weapon.
00:25:13.000DCI agents recovered a knife from the driver's side floorboard of Mr. Blake's vehicle.
00:25:17.000A search of the vehicle located no additional weapons.
00:25:22.000And so what ensued is BLM Incorporated, the insurrectionists and the terrorists in our country, decided that they wanted to burn down our entire civilization.
00:25:30.000Again, they decided to do this in the sleepy town of Kenosha, Wisconsin.
00:25:37.000I grew up about 45 minutes down the street from Kenosha, Wisconsin, and it is a shame of what they are doing to this American city that, quite honestly, does not deserve what is happening right now in Kenosha, Wisconsin.
00:25:49.000They do not deserve the arson, the burning, the looting, and the terrorism.
00:25:54.000So then, according to witness accounts and video footage, this is going on to what happened last night.
00:25:59.000Before I get into last night, so BLM Incorporated burns down all of Kenosha, Wisconsin.
00:26:04.000And the activist media says, well, it's mostly a peaceful protest.
00:26:35.000His own girlfriend thought that he was a menace to an innocent.
00:26:40.000And so then he resists arrest after he was tased, goes to his car to go grab a lethal weapon, and then the police officer discharges his weapon.
00:26:49.000That's the part that we have to have a conversation about.
00:26:51.000I'm not justifying or supporting it, but it's not like Jacob Blake was Sitting peacefully in his yard.
00:26:58.000It wasn't like it was just a five-year-old playing in his yard when a white five-year-old's playing in his yard and a black criminal comes and kills him.
00:27:07.000And I'm not trying to overly racialize this because that's not the right way to have a civilized society.
00:27:12.000It's not how we built our civilization.
00:27:14.000However, when you have someone like Jacob Blake who was acting, let's just put it this way: why did his girlfriend call the police?
00:27:23.000Obviously, there's something that he hasn't done that's necessarily correct.
00:27:28.000And again, not justifying the seven discharges of a weapon.
00:27:31.000But if you have no nuance at all, and all you say is, oh my goodness, another black man who's in the hospital at the hands of a police officer, then you have a sloppy mind, you have a lazy mind, and you're trying to create racial unrest in our country.
00:27:44.000And so now, Kenosha, Wisconsin, a once sleepy town, has become a domestic terror hotspot for BLM Incorporated.
00:27:52.000You guys have seen this arson on television.
00:27:55.000I'm going to get into exactly what happened last night, but Cannon Hinnett in North Carolina, five-year-old white boy who was shot in cold blood in front of his sisters by a black criminal.
00:29:31.000And Kyle Rittenhouse has been indicted for first-degree murder.
00:29:35.000Now, according to the witnesses and the video footage, police apparently led the young man, Kyle Rittenhouse, responsible for some or all the shootings, walk past him with the rifle over his shoulder as a member of the crowd were yelling at him.
00:29:47.000I'm not advocating for vigilante justice.
00:30:02.000You get to something bad when the police are not welcome in your city, when the National Guard is not welcome in your city, and you allow BLM Incorporated to run Kenosha, Wisconsin, a small sleepy town on Lake Michigan in southeast Wisconsin.
00:30:15.000The sheriff told the journal Sentinel that armed people have been patrolling the city streets in recent nights.
00:30:29.000The FBI said it's assisting in this case.
00:30:32.000Now, Wisconsin Lieutenant Governor Mandela Barnes, who is black, said in an interview with the news program Democracy Now, which might as well be just state-run Pravda propaganda.
00:30:43.000I just got a news alert that Barack Obama is tweeting alongside LeBron James.
00:30:59.000But when you allow BLM Incorporated to go into Southeast Wisconsin under a complete and total misinterpretation of the facts, you're going to get chaos.
00:31:07.000If you do not have stability, if you do not have the rule of law, then all sorts of very unruly, very questionable characters are going to come out of the woodwork, and you're going to lose your civilization and you're going to lose your country.
00:31:19.000And so the lack of facts in this situation in particular has been incredibly concerning.
00:31:25.000But we've burned down Minneapolis, we burned down Seattle, burned down Portland, burned down New York City, burned down Los Angeles around lies.
00:31:37.000Police officers actually drop the rate of crime.
00:31:40.000Police officers are able to address these problems head on.
00:31:46.000And actually, thanks to Rudy Giuliani's pro-police forms in the 1990s, more black and Hispanic people were able to live quiet and peaceable lives.
00:31:55.000Now, the National Basketball Association, which is part of overly paid, spoiled millionaire brats, has said they might cancel their season.
00:32:04.000Doc Rivers, who's a millionaire black man coach for the Clippers, I think he's a Clipper coach, came out and he said something ridiculous yesterday.
00:33:02.000Doc Rivers, Barack Obama, they can fly in their private jets all day long.
00:33:06.000But you know who the real people that are going to suffer is?
00:33:08.000When the police retreat, black middle class and lower middle class families are going to have to fend for themselves and they're going to get slaughtered.
00:33:17.000Here's just some statistics on police.
00:33:20.00012% of all white and Hispanic homicide victims are killed by cops each year.
00:33:25.0004% of all black homicide victims are killed by cops each year.
00:33:30.000Because a black-on-black homicide rate is so high.
00:33:33.000Did you know that a police officer is 18 and a half times more likely to be killed by a black man than an unarmed black man is to be killed by a cop?
00:33:40.000Do you know that black men make up 42% of all the cop killers over the last decade, even though they're 6% of the nation's population?
00:33:47.000If you look at all the interracial, all the interracial violence, victimizations, excluding homicides, so robberies, aggravated assaults, and rapes, blacks commit 85% of all interracial victimizations.
00:34:06.000You go one by one, about three out of the 15 were probably incidents where the police should be tried.
00:34:12.000The other ones are people that were in their car.
00:34:14.000They said they had weapons, or they charge police officers forcibly.
00:34:19.000There are 1,000 fatal police shootings every single year.
00:34:23.000Out of 365 million police interactions a year, blacks make up 25% of these fatal police encounters, even though they commit 10 times the amount of gun violence of whites and Hispanics combined.
00:34:34.000The rate at which officers use force, lethal or not, is directly connected to the rate of violent crime, not race.
00:34:44.000In New York City, black males, I'm sorry, in New York City, blacks make up 23% of the population, yet they make up 50% of all the police stops.
00:34:53.000Now, people say, well, it's because of racial profiling.
00:35:20.000Trap around when you say Black Lives Matter, you're silent on Chicago.
00:35:23.000You're silent on the million abortions a year in our country.
00:35:26.000You're silent of the absolute slaughter of the declining black birth rate in this country.
00:35:31.000There are few people that animate me as much as LeBron James.
00:35:35.000But LeBron James is the worst of the intersection of foolishness, deceit, power, fame, and money.
00:35:45.000So to finish the statistic, if you add Hispanics to black shootings in New York City and you account for nearly 100% of all the drive-by shootings in just New York City alone, we're going to get even more facts throughout this.
00:35:56.000But if we do not have facts about what's actually happening in this country, then we're just going to allow the loudest demagogue to win.
00:36:41.000The latest Wisconsin poll by Trafalgar, which was the most accurate polling firm going into 2016, has President Donald Trump up one point in Wisconsin.
00:37:05.000And the more that you go out of your way to try to destroy normal people's lives, there is going to be a response to that.
00:37:12.000Some of the other recent polls show that Donald Trump is coming very closely in the margin of error.
00:37:18.000Shows Donald Trump up two points in North Carolina.
00:37:20.000Donald Trump only down one point in Arizona.
00:37:22.000Donald Trump only down three points in Pennsylvania.
00:37:25.000Only three points in Florida, all within the margin of error.
00:37:28.000And these are change polls and CNBC polls.
00:37:31.000A three-point shift in Trump's direction last week shows no post-convention boost for Joe Biden, but definitely President Trump will get one this week after his convention.
00:37:42.000So now you have all this ties together.
00:37:44.000Amazing night for the Republican National Convention.
00:37:46.000But Barack Obama and Doc Rivers and LeBron James, the Lakers and the Clippers have recently voted to cancel their season.
00:37:56.000Do they want Trump to win at this point?
00:37:58.000I mean, people at some point do not want their core cultural institutions to just be complete and total fools at all times.
00:40:14.000And by making this alliance, he has now lost control of being able to denounce what is happening in the inner cities and even in Kenosha, Wisconsin.
00:40:28.000I'm going to read this exact test by Don Lemon.
00:40:54.000And so, unless someone comes up with a solution over the next 73 days or 70 so, however many days are left, 68 days, the problem is not going to go away.
00:41:07.000The problem is not going to be fixed by then.
00:41:18.000He's got to come out and do a speech like Barack Obama did about race.
00:41:21.000He's got to come out and tell people that he's going to deal with this issue of police reform in this country.
00:41:25.000What's happening now on Donald Trump's watch when he is the president and Kamala Harris the vice president, then they'll take care of this problem.
00:44:28.000It is one of the key rules that they talk about within the playbook of how they go about to assume power.
00:44:36.000Right now, they're failing on a lot of different issues.
00:44:40.000And I think one of the most ironic twists, the beasts that they created might actually destroy them.
00:44:46.000You see, they allowed BLM Incorporated to go nuts.
00:44:50.000They've allowed BLM to do whatever they want.
00:44:52.000And they thought that decent and reasonable Americans are not going to say, you know, I was with you on kind of the George Floyd incident was not handled correctly thing.
00:45:03.000But the 81 days of rioting and looting, not a total fan of that.
00:45:10.000Here's a prediction for you: a couple predictions.
00:45:12.000And I want to get to your questions at freedom at charliekirk.com, freedom at charliekirk.com.
00:45:31.000Donald Trump has to get out and head of it.
00:45:34.000And I think that Donald Trump actually has to send in the National Guard and quell this rebellion very quickly and show that he could do that.
00:45:40.000The people that I'm talking to in Southeast Wisconsin are demanding that President Trump does exactly that.
00:45:47.000Biden's strategy is to pathologically lie his way to the White House.
00:45:54.000They understand that now the riots are becoming the number one issue in our country.
00:45:59.000They're now understanding that the crime that is spreading all throughout the Midwest, all across Chicago and all the way to New York and Los Angeles, is becoming a huge political vulnerability.
00:46:09.000But by the way, outside of the political vulnerability, this is an evil thing happening in our country.
00:46:14.000Can we just address it because it's the right thing to do, not because we think that people are going to get votes or not get votes because of it?
00:46:23.000President Barack Obama, again, tweeted out in support of the NBA taking time off, which actually might be a good thing for our country if the National Basketball Association isn't playing.
00:46:34.000But now BLM Incorporated is a political insurrection movement that is viewed very unpopular across the electoral battleground states.
00:46:44.000That could have very well been a very full-fledged political movement that I believe is actually helping Republicans.
00:46:52.000And I actually don't support, I'm not a Don Lemon guy.
00:46:57.000So if I take Don Lemon's thesis at face value, if I want Donald Trump to get re-elected, then I would want the rioting to continue, but I don't.
00:47:09.000I don't like innocent lives to be caught in the crossfire.
00:47:12.000I don't like to see innocent people suffer.
00:47:15.000I don't like to see people that mean well see their livelihoods completely and totally destroyed.
00:47:24.000And I think that unlike Don Lemon, I think that we as Republicans, if we can, and conservatives and Trump supporters, if we can solve this problem, that we're actually going to be richly rewarded politically.
00:47:36.000Let me get to some of your questions here, freedom at charliekirk.com.
00:47:38.000And again, we are recapping a phenomenal night at the Republican National Convention.
00:48:01.000Look, they absolutely need to be held accountable.
00:48:03.000Unfortunately, there's not many ways to do that.
00:48:05.000That's why Nicholas Sandman is an American hero for what he did.
00:48:08.000Nicholas Sandman suing CNN successfully and suing the Washington Post successfully is one of the greatest acts of holding the media accountable that we are going to see in recent memory.
00:48:20.000Here's Tabra T. Hillary is already telling Biden not to concede to Trump under any circumstances if Trump is declared the winner.
00:48:28.000If he doesn't concede, does it even matter?
00:48:30.000What are the possible ramifications of that?
00:50:26.000And again, if you guys email us and we select your question, freedom at charliekirk.com, freedom at charliekirk.com, then you guys get a signed copy of the New York Times bestseller of the mega doctrine.
00:50:44.000Say, do you not like the fact that Iran is being held in check, that illegal immigration is finally being addressed, that we had the lowest black, Hispanic, disabled, and Latino unemployment well before the virus?
00:50:54.000Do you not like the fact that China is finally being held accountable?
00:50:56.000Do you not like the fact that President Trump is actually addressing the cartel of rotten insiders that have done so much damage to our country?
00:51:03.000Some people are just filled with malevolence, bitterness, and deceit.
00:51:05.000There will be 60 million people that come up and vote against Donald Trump.
00:51:09.000All we need is to win by one more vote: Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Florida, North Carolina, Iowa, Ohio, and obviously the core states that are going to be no-brainers.
00:51:30.000I'm going to send you a New York Times bestseller, the MEGA Doctrine, because I'm selecting your question.
00:51:35.000Also, it's good to hear from someone from Illinois.
00:51:37.000Hey, Charlie, I was just curious if you think the Republican National Convention will boost Trump and polling and his odds in the general election.
00:51:43.000And if so, what night do you think would be the most effective to grab those voters who are still undecided?
00:51:48.000First of all, yes, I think that Trump is going to get a massive boost from this convention, a very serious one, because most people were not supporting Donald Trump on the polls because they did not feel adequate reason enough to go support him.
00:51:59.000It was not like enthusiastic support for Joe Biden.
00:52:01.000So I just want to paint that picture for you.
00:52:03.000Versus Mitt Romney and versus John McCain, the support for Joe Biden was a reluctant flight to safety support.
00:52:11.000Like, I don't really feel comfortable with Donald Trump.
00:52:13.000The persuasiveness, the persuasion brilliance of this convention is going to allow people to have that kind of comfort in voting for Donald Trump, something that has been really missing, quite honestly, over the last couple months.
00:52:27.000And so, yes, I think they're going to get a very big boost.
00:52:30.000And I think that the odds are going increasingly in Donald Trump's favor.
00:52:35.000The latest betting odds, just so you know, last week before the Democrat National Convention began, the betting odds had Donald Trump at 31% at winning, 31%.
00:52:47.000In fact, you go all the way to about a month ago and had him at 36%.
00:52:53.000The odds now have Donald Trump at 45% of winning and Joe Biden at 54% of winning.
00:52:59.000The betting markets are rarely ever wrong.
00:53:01.000These are people that are able to just place, it's just no different than sports betting.
00:53:05.000It's getting within the margin of error very, very quickly.
00:53:08.000I think there's going to be a significant Trump boost in the convention.
00:53:12.000Let's take a couple more questions here.
00:53:16.000You should get involved with Turning Point USA.
00:53:17.000I have felt like a proud American watching the RNC so far, but then I feel discouraged when I go on social media and see my liberal friends casting the RNC, the president, and conservatives in general.
00:53:26.000How do you suggest I deal with these conflicting emotions?
00:53:29.000Will avoiding political conversations with these liberals whom I consider my friends be better for my sanity?
00:53:33.000Or do I have a responsibility to correct their misconceptions and share my conservative values?
00:53:36.000Sincerely, Taylor T. Thank you for listening, by the way.
00:53:39.000You win a signed copy of the MAGA doctrine.
00:53:44.000I think that very little good happens when you engage endlessly in these kind of conversations and these kind of internet debates back and forth with liberals and with leftists.
00:53:55.000However, I think it is fair to pick out certain conversations and kind of post once or twice, then retreat from that conversation, just kind of see how it goes.
00:54:04.000I actually think that conservatives need to engage more, not less, with people that spread outright lies and act like micro-tyrants online.
00:54:12.000That being said, if you do that with some of your friends, you're going to lose a lot of friends.
00:54:29.000I actually love hearing that because if someone who's on the ground in New York is saying that and they're seeing those trends in New York, I think it's pretty fair to say that Minnesota is going to go red.
00:54:39.000He says, Grinnell just nuked the deep state thoughts.
00:54:57.000This involved every level of the executive branch of government to go after Donald Trump.
00:55:02.000I think Donald Trump needs to talk about the spy scandal and Spygate even more.
00:55:06.000I bet you're going to hear something from him tomorrow night in his address.
00:55:09.000Nicholas said, do you think labeling BLM as a terrorist organization will open the door for the federal government to conduct arrests of activists associated with BLM?
00:55:18.000BLM should be classified as a domestic terror organization.
00:55:32.000I've been expressing my conservative views on Instagram recently, and I was wondering how to deal with all the nonsense when I go back to school.
00:55:38.000Well, get a couple close conservative friends and be ready for a massive amount of retaliation for the views that you hold.
00:55:44.000That's all I can say, Connor, because it's a hard environment.
00:55:47.000In fact, it's a tougher environment than ever before to be an outright and spoken conservative in this atmosphere.
00:55:53.000Remember, the left hates the idea that there are other ideas.
00:55:56.000They want college to be a place where everyone looks different but thinks the same.
00:55:59.000And their idea of diversity is skin color, not diversity of thought.
00:56:04.000Very, very important that you guys continue to be ambassadors of freedom and for liberty, no matter what happens.
00:56:40.000I know some people that are working very hard on this, Pastor Rob McCoy, Pastor Jack Hibbs, and many others.
00:56:44.000I don't think California is going to turn red, but I think if you're seeing enthusiasm for Trump in California, I can only imagine what is being felt on the ground in Florida, Minnesota, and in other areas.
00:56:56.000Guys, please continue to email me your questions in.
00:56:58.000And if you guys, we're going to send out another 10 copies of the MAGA Doctrine.

00:57:34.000Every door that you see when you drive home, know what doors are voting for Trump and know what doors are not voting for Trump.
00:57:40.000We as conservatives sometimes think too macro, not micro enough.
00:57:44.000So when you drive home from work and you see the 10 doors of your neighbors and you know all their names, be bold enough to go to those neighbors and say, are you supporting President Donald Trump?
00:57:54.000And if not, can I walk you through why I think you should?
00:57:57.000And some of them might say, I hate you, blah, blah, blah, blah.
00:57:59.000That's the type of boldness that it's going to take to get President Donald Trump re-elected.
00:58:50.000Stay tuned for the Charlie Kirk Show for unique commentary.
