00:00:55.000He's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created, Turning Point USA.

00:01:41.000In case anyone watching is wondering about my shirt, I am wearing my CNN My CNN sucks shirt that a friend gave me for my birthday a couple years ago.
00:01:50.000We should offer that as a member giveaway.
00:01:54.000I think it's my friend that made it custom, but I'm sure we could probably copy that as long as we don't get sued by CNN.
00:02:45.000It drives people bonkers that Trump will just talk about an issue in a straightforward way, the way you could talk about it in a bar or with anyone else, you know, one to one.
00:02:55.000And to have to endure, I mean, You were lucky you were traveling, Charlie.
00:03:00.000I had to sit and watch five hours of this.
00:03:03.000And it's just a relentless assault upon the senses.
00:03:06.000I think it's like self-lobotomizing yourself listening to this.
00:03:11.000For those who weren't watching earlier, they did the roll call of all the states and all the territories, too.
00:03:17.000Can't forget American Samoa and all of that.
00:03:19.000All of them casting their delegate ballots for Kamala, plus the five undecided people voting present.
00:03:28.000And every single one of them, we had to repeat 55 different times.
00:03:33.000They'll have some person there saying like, we're here and we're really proud that in
00:03:39.000the state of Wyoming, we have abortions still.
00:03:44.000We love abortions so much and we're voting for commoners.
00:03:47.000And you just repeat that for every single state.
00:03:49.000They'll talk about abortions and then sometimes they'd have this like mascot.
00:03:53.000But New Jersey brought a transgender person along, it was either a transgender person
00:04:46.000So, Barack Obama just ended, and we're thinking about doing a little bit of man-on-the-street type stuff here while we're in, because I was very interested as to why it was that nobody mentioned Donald Trump's assassination attempt.
00:05:00.000The fact that a crazed leftist shot up a Donald Trump rally, went after him, shot Donald Trump, and shot and killed a firefighter, and yet not one person has mentioned Corey Comptrey.
00:08:07.000As Jack Posobiec continues doing front lines here.
00:08:10.000Boy, they look like Democrats, don't they, Blake?
00:08:13.000I mean, just... I love the mask thing.
00:08:15.000Like, we're gonna have... I wonder who will be the last COVID mask wearer.
00:08:20.000Like, it's fun to imagine this as a sci-fi thing.
00:08:23.000Like, someone, it's 2050, and this person is still a recluse in their house, and they're, like, berating people who walk by, and they're like, we're in a pandemic!
00:11:34.000Democrats actually don't want any physical harm to happen, even to someone they don't like like Donald Trump.
00:11:42.000I feel badly for this gentleman who was killed, of course, and we know the way to solve that is to make sure that People who shouldn't have guns don't have access to assault weapons like AR-15s.
00:11:55.000So how would you get the guns out then?
00:12:28.000No, I understand, but the point is technology exists to geo-fence using GPS technology.
00:12:37.000So how about if we just put those on everyone's guns, we give them an area to protect their home and some area around that, but not to be used at a school, not to be used at a church, not to be used at a baseball game.
00:13:23.000I mean, I think it would work for people who go into it, but it would be very easy to get around.
00:13:29.000No, but the point is, If you are caught with a weapon outside of your geographical area, you're protecting your own home and your family.
00:13:38.000So you support police then taking those guns away?
00:13:41.000No, I support people going to prison if they disable the geofencing on their assault weapons.
00:13:50.000Right, so if someone takes a step out of that geolocation, the cops come, they take their gun away.
00:13:55.000I don't think a step is going to be a problem, but If someone is outside the area where they should be, where they are protecting their family, and they have disabled a geofenced lock on their gun, that would be a crime.
00:14:13.000Just like having heroin would be a crime.
00:14:15.000Well, the heroin is not protected by the Nazis.
00:14:19.000Well, there's an argument about whether people in the libertarian way to look at the world, but AR-15s are not supposed to be accountable to the owned by people, for example, a 15-year-old.
00:14:34.000There's a constitution that's not hateful.
00:14:58.000There is not in the Constitution a right to personal ownership of guns.
00:15:04.000Okay, we're gonna be back with more with Jack Posobiec in just a second here as they continue to debate the finer points of the Second Amendment.
00:15:15.000Do you think they'll still be going whenever we end the show?
00:16:53.000You see it really happening badly in the homeland of many of the freedoms we appreciate, the United Kingdom, where they're basically going full Big Brother.
00:17:03.000Tens of thousands of people are being arrested and convicted for speech offenses.
00:17:10.000They are going to pass an official legal ban on saying mean things about the prophet, peace be upon him, on the internet.
00:17:17.000England and yeah all these technocratic ways to make freedom much more
00:17:22.000circumscribed than it ever was in the past yeah let's take this right that
00:17:25.000says shall not be infringed and say oh what if what if we used a vast panopticon
00:17:30.000and had a central government database where we'll monitor every item that
00:17:35.000you're carrying to make sure you don't take it out of the constant you know the
00:17:38.00025 square meter Constitution zone in your living room and then that'll that'll
00:17:43.000be the good way to balance balance freedom and we'll have a we'll have a
00:17:46.000free speech zone that's in your bathroom where you can yell into your toilet if
00:17:49.000you feel like you have opinions about things but don't don't do it anywhere
00:17:52.000else then then that might cause misinformation It's baffling, and I still think the best sign, though, of their mental state is all of the masks.
00:18:03.000This gets more and more glaring the longer it goes on.
00:18:05.000They're going to put up a Senate candidate in 2036, and they're going to be masked, and their number one issue is going to be making sure people know that we live in a pandemic, and the immunocompromised are in danger.
00:18:20.000But I do see a through line here, which is, of course, we have big hearts here and we're very compassionate.
00:18:26.000The Democrats go out of their way to try to find a group that is allegedly victimized to try to create a movement against people that have more than them.
00:18:34.000Blake, at its core, it seems as if this is a rebellion against excellence.
00:18:39.000That there is a movement against what is beautiful, good, and true, against hierarchies that act like we have zero compassion, when in reality, they have no compassion whatsoever for actually who matters.
00:19:13.000So just to explain to people what we're referencing, Ayanna Pressley, a member of the Squad, she once had a line, I think this was two or three years ago at this point, where she said something about poverty's a choice and we could get rid of poverty if we just changed the rules so that everyone got resources shared a different way.
00:19:32.000You are... all of us would just be born... all of us are born naked and deprived, naturally.
00:19:38.000Our natural state of being is we live in a dangerous world filled with predators and disease and a harsh environment, and it is only through thousands of years that we change that.
00:19:50.000And all of that goes away if we don't maintain civilization.
00:19:56.000It is a long-running historical debate.
00:19:59.000You know, what should we prize the most?
00:20:01.000How far should we go to protect and uplift the weak?
00:20:05.000And I think both of us would agree probably that the happy medium is, you know, Christian morality, which says you should be courageous and brave and try to do excellent things and you should temper that with humility and concern for others.
00:20:19.000And that's how you create the balancing act that is European Christian civilization.
00:20:24.000That we are able to care for and protect the weak, but we don't hate those who are strong.
00:20:33.000We instead say, if you are strong, you have a duty towards other people.
00:20:37.000But this easily can become warped and convoluted.
00:20:40.000It becomes hatred of those who are successful.
00:20:44.000Hatred of any idea that one person could be more talented than anyone else.
00:20:50.000More successful than anyone else, better than anyone else.
00:20:53.000And if you allow that to run wild, which the modern left is certainly doing, you get this sort of monster that just annihilates civilization.
00:21:01.000You get what happens in Kamala City of San Francisco.
00:21:04.000San Francisco is one of the richest cities in the world.
00:21:09.000It is the center of one of the most dynamic Wealth-producing engines in the history of humanity.
00:22:33.000Again, you could very easily stop all of this.
00:22:36.000They choose to live in this crime-infested state that people find miserable because They really deep down I think it makes them uncomfortable to live in a nice city and it's jarring when you can go to countries that are one-third one-quarter as wealthy as the United States are and their cities will feel better because they haven't
00:23:01.000Internalize this bizarre anti-civilization impulse to say crime is amazing, urban blight is amazing, it's actually better to be impoverished than to be successful.
00:23:14.000If you are successful, you should just give up everything you have.
00:23:18.000While they've been doing this whole display, this like abortion sacrament in Chicago, the other news today is Kamala's team On top of the whole price control mechanism they talked about last week, they're now endorsing Joe Biden's plan to tax unrealized capital gains, which is just straight up, you might make money on that in the future, we're going to tax you on it right now.
00:24:08.000Let's go to, this is Michelle Obama going after Trump at the DNC.
00:24:12.000Of all the lines, this one really upset me the most.
00:24:14.000This is just another pure lie, acting as if Donald Trump said something he didn't say.
00:24:18.000When President Trump was talking about black unemployment, and he said, you know, oh, black jobs, and then that snarky woman from ABC said, oh, well, do you mean, like, what is a black job?
00:24:30.000He's like, well, a job that a black person has.
00:24:34.000For years, Donald Trump did everything in his power to try to make people fear us.
00:24:42.000See, his limited, narrow view of the world made him feel threatened by the existence of two hard-working, highly educated, successful people who happen to be black.
00:25:55.000has shown her allegiance to this nation, not by spewing anger and bitterness, but by living a life of service and always pushing the doors of opportunity open to others.
00:26:09.000She understands that most of us will never be afforded the grace of failing forward.
00:26:17.000We will never benefit from the affirmative action of generational wealth.
00:26:23.000If things don't go our way, we don't have the luxury of whining or cheating others to get further ahead.
00:27:08.000No, I mean, obviously it's fair game now that she's accusing the most successful billionaire developer who succeeded in everything that he has done in his life as failing upward.
00:27:27.000She was told, she'll talk about this in speeches, that she was told her test scores were not good enough to go to Princeton, and then she'll tell this as like an inspiring, you can overcome anything thing, where she's like, I kept at it and I was able to go.
00:27:42.000All I will say is, if she, if, you know, her name was, you know, Michelle Rhee and she was from, her parents were from Korea or Vietnam or China, That would have been the end of her story, but fortunately she was not of that background, so she was able to go to Princeton.
00:27:59.000She wrote a thesis while at Princeton, an undergraduate thesis, and this is what Christopher Hitchens, the acerbic British atheist, wrote about it.
00:28:10.000I direct your attention to Mrs. Obama's 1985 thesis at Princeton University.
00:29:49.000We're going to keep on giving you updates here.
00:29:52.000I want to harp on that a bit more on Michelle Obama.
00:29:55.000If you look at her career, it's actually a lot like, it kind of reminds me of Kamala.
00:29:59.000So Kamala, of course, slept with Willie Brown and used that to get jobs on California boards where you go to two meetings for an hour a month, or you go to two hour-long meetings a month and get paid.
00:30:11.000It was about $150,000 in today's money.
00:30:16.000Meanwhile, Michelle Obama, her career was, she was at a law firm very briefly, and then she seems to have basically, if you read between the lines and know how the legal industry works, she basically failed at this.
00:30:30.000And then her home run is, her husband gets elected to the Senate, and then she's put on one of those, she's on the board of a hospital, and it pays like $500,000 a year.
00:30:38.000And all I'm going to say is, I don't think she would have gotten that job if she were still Michelle Robinson.
00:30:48.000I think having Obama on her name, and that being the same name as a senator from Illinois, Probably helped a little bit in her doing that.
00:30:59.000That said, she is a lot better at politics than Kamala is.
00:31:03.000I would say a big takeaway tonight is I am very glad that Kamala refused to be shoved aside in favor of Michelle Obama being the nominee.
00:32:39.000Here's a 78-year-old billionaire who has not stopped whining about his problems since he rode down his golden escalator nine years ago.
00:32:52.000It has been a constant stream of gripes and grievances that's actually been getting worse now that he's afraid of losing to Kamala.
00:33:02.000There's the childish nicknames, the crazy conspiracy theories, this weird obsession with crowd sizes.
00:33:14.000It's like you said, one thing... Yeah, please.
00:33:17.000One thing you alluded to, but it has to be remembered, is Trump is basically Obama's fault.
00:33:24.000It seems that if you go back into the lore, the thing that really tipped Trump into wanting to run for president was when Obama was bullying him at, I think it was the White House Correspondents' Dinner.
00:33:36.000You know, the, at least I will go down as president.
00:33:39.000And it seems, if not for that joke, I think it's very plausible Trump doesn't actually run.
00:33:45.000That was, I have to beat him, I have to prove that I can do it.
00:33:49.000And as you said, it's not just that he upset Obama's legacy.
00:34:23.000And let's just reiterate this, that Donald Trump disrupted the Obama era where he was able to choose presidents.
00:34:31.000And in some ways, Obama was so upset because he decided to pass the torch to Hillary, not to Biden.
00:34:39.000And no, that was, and it was an embarrassment to Obama's staying power, an embarrassment to Obama's political machine or what was left of it.
00:34:50.000Again, they don't go after policy, not about immigration, not about inflation, not about grocery prices, but it is nicely put, beautifully crafted, charismatically delivered, slippery nonsense.
00:35:33.000We are ready for a President Kamala Harris.
00:35:40.000So Blake, I suppose here is the question.
00:35:42.000I'm glad that Michelle Obama is not running and that Kamala Harris is, but do you think in this era, this sort of bluster and this nonsense has the same appeal it did back in 2008 when it just swept the country in pandemonium?
00:35:58.000Or have things, have they not changed?
00:36:01.000Can we counter it because we have Trump?
00:36:04.000If Michelle Obama were to run, what would that mean based on what you saw tonight?
00:36:09.000You know, I think sometimes certain individuals do have a certain magical powers to them.
00:36:15.000It's sort of like how Trump is indestructible.
00:36:18.000Trump has had 50 different moments where people thought, oh, he's done now, the walls are closing in, and he just always bounces back from it.
00:36:26.000And I think in a similar way, the Obamas do seem to have that.
00:36:29.000As much as we say Trump has overthrown his legacy, Obama doesn't have nearly as much of a legacy as he would have liked, Obama himself is just Popular.
00:36:39.000I don't think the polls are a lie that showed Michelle Obama easily beating Trump if she were the one who'd run.
00:36:46.000I think polls showed that if Obama had run in 2016, he would have won.
00:36:50.000You can debate that, but I think it's basically probably true.
00:36:55.000Now, his style, I do think, isn't translating very well.
00:37:00.000I think Obama has a certain magical magnetism to millennials, and it just doesn't go away.
00:37:07.000But I think a lot of people are fed up with it, and that is what gave Trump so much power.
00:37:12.000He was very much the contrast to that.
00:37:14.000He is the guy who just chops in and says, yeah, all of that weird crap you said about, oh, you know, we don't, we can secure the border without separating people.
00:37:59.000But the Democrats are trying to get the same energy of being really aggressive.
00:38:03.000They're ridiculing Trump in a much more aggressive way than they would have ridiculed any other candidate before the Trump era.
00:38:11.000They are trying to They're trying to copy Trump's method of, oh, we're gonna say the raw truth, so we're just gonna mock Trump, we're gonna bully him, we're just gonna say he's, like, senile.
00:38:30.000Obama can stand up tonight, do his whole Obama thing, it'll get a ton of claps from the audience, it'll probably get great reviews from the press, but Obama's style of politics is not What they're running with in this cycle, and it's not what you'll be seeing from either party in the future, I think.
00:38:50.000And I'll say this, that Obama can talk his way very, very well.
00:38:56.000But absent Donald Trump, these people have had control of the country 12 out of the last 16 years.
00:39:03.00012 out of the last 16 years, they have had complete control of this country.
00:39:06.000So if you feel like this country's been going in the wrong direction, if you feel as if, you know, the borders are open, that you're purchasing power is deteriorating, they have been in charge.
00:39:16.000This is the incumbent power structure.
00:39:18.000And they act as if that they're fighting the system.
00:39:23.000Let's continue here that the other side knows it's easy to play on other people's fears and cynicism.
00:39:29.000They'll tell you that the government is inherently corrupt.
00:39:31.000I think this is a big losing message for Obama.
00:39:33.000I think that people generally in this country know after the vaccine and COVID and six feet of distance and 15 days until the spread and closing down schools and mandatory masks and the lies about ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine and the double standard when it comes to Notes.
00:39:51.000It's easier to play on people's fears and cynicism.
00:39:53.000They've lied about the border, they've lied about Ukraine, they've lied about the amount
00:40:51.000Projection, abstractions, and outrageous fear-mongering about one specific guy who notably has already been president before and at the least if he was a threat to democracy it wasn't enough of a threat to stop him from surrendering power again after four years.
00:41:07.000It is, you know, we talked about on the show last week, the origin of gaslighting.
00:41:12.000It really is It really is a strong tool in their arsenal.
00:41:17.000They like to use that word because it comes very naturally to them.
00:41:24.000They basically... The gaslighting comes in where they'll repeat a lie that is so debunked, even their own favorite sites will debunk it.
00:41:33.000When we say that the Very Fine People thing they say is a lie, we're not linking to an article on, you know, that we created.
00:41:42.000We're not linking to a post-millennial article.
00:41:44.000We're not linking to something on The Blaze or The Daily Wire or whatever.
00:41:47.000We're linking to Snopes, which is a website run by, like, an angry left-winger, I believe.
00:42:25.000And then the other gaslighting is, of course, just It's like they're positioning themselves really genuinely as the challenger party, and Donald Trump is the incumbent.
00:42:36.000Nate Silver has even written about this, that the entire vibe of the race is the feeling that because Kamala is the new person, she hasn't run for president before, she's the challenger, and can they really bamboozle America enough into thinking, yeah, Kamala is the new person who has a new vision, When it's just, no, she's the vice president of an administration that is historically unpopular and was going to get blown up if it stayed on the ticket.
00:43:03.000She has the ideology that has been the prestige ruling ideology of the United States for nearly two decades now during a period where the overwhelming consensus on both sides is America has been in steep decline.
00:43:19.000This is the ideology of American decline.
00:43:22.000And they're just like, oh, we can ram through all of that, say that Trump is a rapist, bad man who did all these crime things, and he'll destroy democracy if you elect him.
00:45:28.000When they are not in control of political power, they get anxiety.
00:45:33.000And being at the DNC, and Blake, I think you would have saw this if you would have come, if we would have had more passes, we would have definitely brought you and the team, that this, for them, is church.
00:45:42.000For them, this was a religious experience.
00:46:28.000There was a tweet by writer Jessica Valenti, and her bio, if you click on Twitter, is, I'm not making this up, I write about abortion every day.
00:46:37.000She is a full-time abortion obsessive.
00:46:40.000Great epithet to put on your gravestone one day.
00:46:43.000And she tweeted this two nights ago, or I think it was last night, but, I'm watching the DNC from vacation and didn't expect to fully cry when Kamala Harris came out.
00:47:00.000Very stable, very stable ruling elites we have, you know, sobbing, sobbing in tears over their abortion superhero, Kamala Harris, swooping in to save them in Chicago.
00:47:10.000Great, great, great ruling elite that we have.
00:47:13.000You can remember that, remember when like James Madison wrote that?
00:47:16.000And he was like, I didn't expect when George Washington walked into Independence Hall to fully cry.
00:47:28.000It really is remarkable, and just the connection that they have to just politics is really something.
00:47:37.000I also just want to push back on just some of the blackpilling, because there's, you know, when you listen to Michelle speak and you hear the applause, you're like, oh my goodness, can we win?
00:47:45.000Just so everyone is clear, talking to Democrats in Chicago, they are not nearly as confident about their own chances as you might think they are.
00:48:00.000During COVID, we supported small businesses and jobs.
00:48:04.000And Donald, well, Donald told us to inject bleach.
00:48:14.000Okay, so first of all, no one respects him because, as you can tell, people are still milling about and the hall is full of noise at his own convention in Illinois.
00:48:22.000Secondly, again, this inject bleach, if they did not have lies, they had nothing to run on.
00:48:32.000Pritzker, the failed governor of Illinois, a man who was born on 3rd and thought he had a triple, who has helped destroy the great state of Illinois and further put it into oblivion, Is telling us that Donald Trump wanted people to inject bleach?
00:49:19.000Do you notice that they do not talk about the amazing things she's done as vice president?
00:49:23.000Oh yeah, she's managed the border and that she's brokered peace.
00:49:26.000No, she does not have a record because the record that she has is one that deep down they're very proud of, but it results in the destruction of the United States of America.
00:50:08.000Again, Obama talking about no more bluster, bumbling, and chaos.
00:50:13.000They try to paint the Trump years as being chaotic.
00:50:16.000What was only chaotic was their portrayal of this.
00:50:18.000We've been living through bedlam the last couple of years.
00:50:21.000Yeah, it's something I do think the Trump campaign should be more aggressive on.
00:50:26.000I think if there's one thing where Trump has just been a thousand percent vindicated since his presidency, it's on his foreign policy, which was endlessly attacked while he was in office.
00:50:38.000Yet the facts just so objectively speak for themselves that there were no new conflicts.
00:50:44.000The stuff he did was basically successful.
00:50:48.000He did things that had not happened under prior administrations.
00:50:52.000He created peace deals in the Middle East that had been on hold for half a century.
00:50:58.000He even had that engagement with North Korea.
00:51:13.000I think it's almost universally agreed that Putin would not have taken that risk if Trump was still in office because, among other things, he just wouldn't know exactly how Donald Trump would respond to it.
00:51:25.000And it's A lot of it is like the sheer predictability of how the left reacts to every foreign policy thing by being predictable and also very America last in all of its behaviors makes them sort of easy to shove around, easy to manipulate.
00:52:09.000It truly is very obvious that America is going through this radical drop in its international power, and everyone can see it happening.
00:52:19.000And the only thing I worry is that people, too many voters, they know this, but they don't know it, know it, in that it only comes into their head if it's being talked about on the news.
00:52:30.000And there's very much a deliberate Moved by the media, I think, to say only domestic politics is happening right now.
00:53:38.000We're going to have to endure a lot of positive coverage of them, but I do think we've seen, they have in an interesting way hurt their own momentum.
00:53:43.000than I'll give you my thoughts of what my take being on the ground.
00:53:51.000We're going to have to endure a lot of positive coverage of them, but I do think we've seen
00:53:57.000... they have in an interesting way hurt their own momentum.
00:54:01.000It seems a lot of coverage going ... they got a surprisingly big backlash to Kamala
00:54:06.000finally releasing her first big policy idea and it was price gouging.
00:54:11.000A lot of press outlets were extremely unimpressed by this, and they vocally said so.
00:54:16.000I think that was a sour note right as they were going into this.
00:54:20.000And then, yeah, Obama's speech was fine.
00:54:24.000In just the normal ways, if you're a normie American watching it, I think it'll give you fuzzy feelings to see Obama talking, to see Michelle talking.
00:55:17.000She's not really naturally that likable.
00:55:21.000She doesn't have a compelling personal story.
00:55:23.000All of those things are going to bubble up, and I just am very skeptical that they'll be able to essentially run the gaslighting campaign for two whole months of, don't ask too many questions about Kamala, just don't think about it too hard, just vote for her because Trump is bad and he'll end democracy.
00:55:41.000I think that is the fundamental flaw of the Democratic game plan, and I don't see anything this week that is making that flaw go away.
