00:01:09.000His 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.
00:01:17.000We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.
00:02:00.000I want to tell you about a tweet I sent yesterday, which is a perfect lead.
00:02:03.000But before I get into that, let me just build up to it.
00:02:05.000I find in life, whether I'm doing meetings at Turning Point USA, giving people advice, receiving emails, there's a difference between activity and results-driven behavior.
00:02:16.000Far too often, people meander through life.
00:02:20.000They don't really know what their goal is.
00:02:46.000In politics, this is rarely ever said out loud.
00:02:50.000The Democrats, they have very specific goals of ushering in a progressive, totalitarian, some would say Marxist or communistic version of government over America.
00:03:06.000Now, Marxists need to do three things.
00:03:27.000Everything the parasitic left is focused on is making it harder to own private property.
00:03:32.000They want you to be a renter, harder to raise your kids, destroy the family, and less attached to a religion or a belief in a higher power, a transcendent order.
00:03:44.000I have to ask this question, which again, I should not have to ask.
00:03:48.000I have a chance to talk to some amazing people that are in the conservative movement, some people that have been unbelievably successful in business.
00:03:56.000And I had a conversation recently with someone who wrote a seven-figure check to a super PAC that was not Donald Trump's, wrote a very big check in support of a certain candidate.
00:04:08.000And I was nice about it, but I asked, I said, what is the goal here?
00:04:11.000Why are you writing a seven-figure check to a candidate who almost certainly is not going to win?
00:04:20.000And the donor said, well, it's a good candidate, good message.
00:04:25.000I think that this person would be a better choice than Donald Trump.
00:04:29.000But I said, yeah, have you thought through, though, do we have ballot chasing, secure elections, grassroots workers in Georgia, Arizona, Wisconsin?
00:04:36.000And he said, we can worry about that after the primary.
00:04:40.000And I said, well, that's actually not true.
00:04:43.000You have to make those investments now.
00:04:51.000Reports are coming out that tens of millions and soon to be hundreds of millions of dollars are going into super PACs to boost candidates.
00:04:59.000That absent a black swan event, that money is going to be burned.
00:05:04.000That money is going to be incinerated.
00:05:06.000Now, while Joe Biden is under legitimate accusations, because he's a traitor to the country, of selling on America for cash, and I just laugh.
00:05:14.000People say, oh, yeah, Joe Biden was just talking about the weather.
00:07:14.000We had an event at Turning Point Action Conference.
00:07:16.000I'm telling you right now, Donald Trump is not going to have his support eroded.
00:07:21.000I had another call with a donor recently, and he said, Charlie, Donald Trump is not going to win the nomination because Ron DeSantis, once he gets him on a debate stage, the country will see the contrast.
00:07:30.000I said, with all possible due respect, you do not understand the Republican base.
00:08:58.000I got attacked for even that paragraph.
00:09:00.000Now is the time for conservatives to unite and defeat the Democrats and their machine in 2024.
00:09:04.000Yes, Trump will be facing four or five indictments, but the American people see through them as the political witch hunt that they are.
00:09:10.000They recognize that the intel agencies and federal leviathan have been weaponized to eliminate their number one threat.
00:09:15.000But our greatest challenge ahead of 2024 is the billions of dollars being spent on ballot harvesting, negative ads, and lawsuits by a well-funded and motivated left.
00:09:22.000They will outperform polling in key districts because they are investing resources to get out low-propensity voters who otherwise couldn't be bothered.
00:09:45.000Is the goal to spend a bunch of money, make yourself feel good, or is the goal to defeat the Marxist Democrats in November of 2024?
00:09:54.000And I could be honest with you, based on conversations with some, not all, based on conversations with some donors, they don't care about beating the Marxist Democrats in 2024.
00:10:06.000They would rather spend all their money to disrupt and confuse and upset Donald Trump than make any investments in Georgia, Arizona, Wisconsin.
00:10:32.000The Democrats know that their path to holding on power, despite them being unpopular, illegitimate, and traitors to America, is that our own side can't get its act together.
00:10:41.000That we're going to have a $1.5 billion primary.
00:10:43.000And then all of a sudden in April of next year, I guarantee you, some of these donors will change their tune.
00:10:48.000They'll say, oh, Donald Trump's not that bad.
00:12:34.000Why does that make this show different?
00:12:35.000I can speak from authority of what is working and what is not working.
00:12:39.000Building an actual organization like our 501c4 Turning Point Action, it's not easy.
00:12:44.000Tyler Boyer does a great job, Austin Smith, the whole thing.
00:12:47.000The point is this: I'm able to give some insight, I believe, that these other people, you know, like this one guy who I'm not going to say who hosts the radio program, it's like, oh, the real reason they're indicting Trump is because they want to run against Trump.
00:13:00.000I'm like, dude, just like stick to sports, okay?
00:13:31.000There were votes cast, not officially at the Turning Point Action Conference where you guys decided not to show up.
00:13:36.000And 85% of our attendees support Donald Trump.
00:13:40.000So my message or my question to anybody, and they're welcome on the program, Tim Scott or Chris Christie, or Nikki Haley, or Ron DeSantis, how do you plan to win over Trump voters?
00:13:56.000You have to answer that question directly and you can't dodge, or you could do the Chris Christie thing, which is just be super against Trump.
00:14:04.000And yes, you will get like 5% or 6% of the vote.
00:14:11.000And if you don't have an answer to that, you're running for president for the wrong reasons.
00:14:16.000What is your path to beating Trump, to moving his ridiculously loyal supporters away from him?
00:14:24.000Do you have any evidence that those voters will walk away from Trump?
00:14:31.000Any evidence in a straw poll, in an event, in donations, in a primary previously?
00:14:38.000Do you have any evidence that in a Republican primary, when Donald Trump is enthusiastically involved, that you can go head to head and beat him?
00:14:49.000Not hopium, not that I'm sitting on $120 million.
00:14:52.000That sounds like John Ellis Bush, Jeb, who sat on $100 million.
00:14:59.000So I don't need to hear these like long lectures about how your campaign strategy is different.
00:15:06.000And some people say, well, Charlie, you know, one of the DeSantis intelligentsia people, which again, I love DeSantis as a governor.
00:15:22.000So I say to them, I say, they say to me, oh, we're going to expand the primary electorate to low-propensity Republicans and people that are outside of the Trump base.
00:16:20.000Hillary Clinton robbed it from Bernie Sanders.
00:16:23.000In fact, I think some of that resentment actually resulted in Donald Trump winning the presidency in 2016.
00:16:29.000That's a deeper conversation, but I think that the Sanders primary Trump general voter was actually completely ignored by the Clinton campaign.

00:19:56.000So there are a couple other incentives that might be at play here as to why this primary will not be ended.
00:20:02.000And the number one, the number one goal is not to get us to defeat the Marxist Democrats in November of 2024.
00:20:12.000Do not underestimate the ideological component to this.
00:20:18.000Populist nationalism, which in particular looks to reorient the conservative Republican movement on three main issues, is one of the main reasons why Republican elites do not want to see Donald Trump be successful.
00:20:37.000There's a fourth that I could add, which is probably the most important for this particular election.
00:20:43.000Free trade, open borders, endless wars.
00:20:47.000Donald Trump has stood against those three things, which is a rejection of neoliberalism and neoliberalism is baked into the DNA of the Republican elites.
00:20:59.000They're perfectly fine with endless piles of plastic coming from overseas.
00:21:04.000They want no such immigration control.
00:21:06.000In fact, they're running PSAs saying we need more people in our country, more people.
00:21:44.000And we will be able to say, I told you so, and we'll be aggressively able to steamroll over populist nationalist ideas and put them into the dustbin of history.
00:21:58.000That is without a doubt the driving and motivating factor by some of the Republican elites, the same way that they were able to eulogize the Tea Party.
00:22:51.000And so the issue is that there's a fair amount of Republican cabal leaders that say, oh boy, they know Trump's going to be the nominee.
00:23:00.000They know it even more than some of the candidates know it.
00:23:04.000But they're doing this to make a lot of noise, like Chris Christie, raise some money, warn donors, be like, hey, we're heading off an abyss.
00:23:11.000We're heading into a terrible direction.
00:23:14.000Donald Trump, in their estimation, is going to lose the general.
00:23:16.000They could do an unbelievably obnoxious November of December 2024 of I told you so.
00:23:44.000Think about how demented you must be to worry about credit when we're up against this unprecedented destructive force and they're worried about who is going to say, I told you so.
00:23:59.000After an election, they think certainly Donald Trump is going to lose.
00:24:05.000Ego, pride, narcissism, not love of country.
00:24:13.000So they want to eradicate populism and nationalism.
00:24:16.000They want to make neoliberalism the premier.
00:24:20.000But here's the problem is that Donald Trump, whether he becomes president again in 2024, which he has a great chance to do if we get our act together, but I'm also going to tell you, it's going to be harder than you think.
00:24:32.000His legacy no matter what, no matter what, and he can be really proud of this, and he should, is that he has changed the conservative movement in so many profound ways.
00:25:15.000Donald Trump has changed the entire half of the country and reoriented it and reconfigured it.
00:25:20.000And if you think, if you look deeply at it and you listen carefully to how these people are talking on TV, it's not about Donald Trump's, you know, criminality or handling of documents or January 6th.
00:26:00.000Without getting too deep into this, Plato believed in two separate forms of knowledge, messaging to the commoners and then a secret gnosis or a secret knowledge or a secret mind.
00:26:10.000They don't think that you are capable of being able to understand the deeper things.
00:30:50.000In fact, if I was a Democrat, I'm not saying they're doing this, but boy, if I was a Democrat, if I was a Democrat, I would try to have as many Republicans run for president.
00:30:59.000If I was a Democrat, I'd have the loudest, most obnoxious people running for the presidency against Donald Trump, ones that don't have a snowball chance in hell, but ones that can make a lot of noise.
00:31:09.000If I was a Democrat, I would get Republicans to care about a vanity project, not infrastructure.
00:31:15.000If I was a Democrat who wanted to take over the country, I would do everything I possibly could to try to have Republicans think the primary matters and the general is subservient to that.
00:31:27.000But of course, the primary is really important.
00:31:58.000Like, how are you going to win over telling 55 to 60 percent of Republican-based voters the person they adore and they admire and they follow and they have loyalty to is a liar, not exactly a way to win.
00:32:35.000Charlie, how dare you say we're going to lose in 2024?
00:32:37.000Again, I don't know if we're going to lose, but we're on pace to lose.
00:32:40.000If this primary continues as it is and Donald Trump has to keep on spending money, we're going down a path where we're going to get obliterated and we're going to be like, oh my gosh, what happened?
00:32:49.000And Chris Christie and Sununu and Nikki Haley and Mike Pence will go on all the Mockingbird CIA networks.
00:32:58.000They probably already have it scheduled where they're going to go on all the shows and they're going to blame people like Charlie Kirk and they're going to blame Steve Bannon.
00:33:17.000The primary sets the base where they could say, well, Mika, I got to tell you, remember, I was running for president and I was booed and I was this and I was that.
00:33:27.000And I think it's time for the Republican Party to get back to the roots of Ronald Reagan and of neoliberalism.
00:34:02.000Because Donald Trump understands this is a crusade against the administrative elite, the very same administrative state Eisenhower warned us against.
00:34:10.000In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military-industrial complex.
00:34:21.000The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist.
00:34:28.000We must never let the weight of this combination endanger our liberties or democratic processes.
00:34:37.000Only an alert and knowledgeable citizenry can compel the proper meshing of the huge industrial and military machinery of defense with our peaceful methods and goals so that security and liberty may prosper together.
00:34:55.000Because he understands the threat that Dwight D. Eisenhower laid out, the unelected Leviathan fourth branch of government, is the issue of the 2024 election.
