00:00:50.000He's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created, Turning Point USA.

00:01:51.000I did serve in the United States Marine Corps and built a business.
00:01:54.000What the hell have you done other than collect the check?
00:02:05.000Senator Vance and future Vice President of the United States, welcome to the program.
00:02:10.000So you responded brilliantly there to Kamala's line of attack.
00:02:13.000What on earth is she even talking about there?
00:02:15.000Well, she says that I'm loyal only to Donald Trump, which of course I'm loyal to Donald Trump because his agenda worked for the country, Charlie.
00:02:22.000And I think it's ridiculous for a person with her public service career and her basic career politician, she's been in politics her entire life, to come after me for my loyalty.
00:02:32.000What has she ever done for this country?
00:02:33.000Can she point to a single significant accomplishment?
00:02:35.000So it just pisses me off, Charlie, when somebody like that, with that level of service and that low level,
00:02:42.000that low record of service comes after me.
00:02:44.000So I decided to hit her and we had some fun with it.
00:03:12.000I mean, you go from not knowing who could be the nominee to now being in the spotlight of the most contested election in modern American history.
00:03:51.000You know, we have Secret Service agents crawling around our house.
00:03:55.000Our kids are sort of asking, why are there police everywhere?
00:03:57.000And we try to remind them that they're our friends.
00:03:59.000And, you know, we went for a walk this morning with our dog and our kids, and we're trailed by like 15 Secret Service agents.
00:04:04.000So it's a little weird personally, but we're getting used to it, man.
00:04:07.000And it's a good, it's, my attitude is, It's a totally reasonable thing, given what's gone on in our country, the threats of political violence.
00:04:17.000And we'll adjust as we need to because it's worth it to serve the country.
00:04:21.000We have to make the people's government actually work for the people.
00:04:25.000And these small little personal sacrifices are totally worth it.
00:04:27.000So I don't want us to gloss over what you mentioned previously.
00:04:31.000This race has changed in the last week.
00:04:34.000This feels like a coup, and it feels very dirty, and it feels like something we shouldn't accept, where Democrat primary voters have been disenfranchised, and within 12 hours they're able to remove a sitting president and their nominee, and then all of a sudden hand this off all in the name of democracy.
00:04:53.000Do you believe that this was a soft coup?
00:04:56.000To just try to reset the race to tighten it against yourself and Donald Trump?
00:05:01.000Well, Charlie, it's profoundly anti-democratic, whatever word you want to put on it.
00:05:04.000It looks like the Democrats are basically putting out trial balloons.
00:05:08.000Joe Biden obviously was rejected by the American people.
00:05:47.000Now, They basically had a bunch of Democrat billionaires get in a room with Barack Obama and Nancy Pelosi and decide that the President of the United States wasn't allowed to run again.
00:05:59.000If that isn't a threat to democracy, I don't know what is.
00:06:02.000And I think that a lot of Americans, whether they agree with my politics or President Trump's politics, They think this is a little creepy.
00:06:09.000You shouldn't be able to do this to the sitting president of the United States.
00:06:54.000Do you think this race has changed from a messaging or a tactical standpoint?
00:06:59.000I believe that she is far more liberal inherently and ideologically than Joe Biden.
00:07:05.000She is far more radical and also she seems completely indifferent to the suffering of native-born Americans specifically in the Rust Belt that have been suffering from a open border and opioid overdoses.
00:07:21.000Do you think from a messaging or tactical standpoint this changes the race at all?
00:07:26.000No, Charlie, I really don't, and I think you have the right attitude here.
00:07:28.000It is profoundly anti-democratic what happened, but we can't sit around and whine about it.
00:07:32.000We have to go and run our race, and that's exactly what President Trump and I are doing.
00:07:56.000If you don't want those things, then vote for President Trump, because he's the guy who's saying, I'm going to open up American energy, I'm going to shut down that border, and I'm going to protect Social Security and Medicare from Democrat politicians who are promising to give it to illegal aliens.
00:08:09.000The contrast couldn't be clearer, and that hasn't changed.
00:08:13.000The issues couldn't be clearer and that hasn't changed.
00:08:15.000And frankly, Charlie, the failed record of Joe Biden, the only person who bears as much responsibility for it as Joe Biden, is his vice president.
00:08:24.000And so Kamala Harris can't run away from that track record.
00:08:28.000And we have to constantly remind people That she failed as vice president, her administration led to higher prices on everything from groceries to housing, a wide open southern border, a drug crisis, and we need new leadership.
00:08:41.000Whatever Democrat figurehead they want to put at the top of the ticket, we need to change direction from a policy perspective.
00:08:47.000And I think that argument will win the day for us.
00:08:51.000She is the border czar, regardless of how much the media tries to cover it up.
00:08:56.000She has called for the banning of all fracking.
00:08:58.000She has sympathized with defunding the police.
00:09:00.000She raised money for Minneapolis murderers and rioters.
00:09:05.000She has been in support of giving taxpayer-funded benefits to foreigners who are illegally domiciled into this country.
00:09:13.000So, you being on the ticket allows us, as Republicans, to have a new outreach to younger voters, which is one of the reasons why I was so enthusiastic to get you on the ticket.
00:09:24.000So, Kamala Harris will be 60 years old soon.
00:09:27.000You'll be the youngest candidate, presumably, on either ticket, unless there's something totally strange that occurs.
00:09:33.000What is your message, first and foremost, to young women Who like the way that she dances on TikTok.
00:09:40.000Meanwhile, 88,000 kids are missing and trafficked into America on her watch.
00:09:44.000And also, your message to young male voters.
00:09:48.000I think most young voters, when I talk to my friends and my family who are sort of my age, maybe a little bit younger, they're worried about the basics.
00:09:55.000They're worried about whether they can afford to buy a house.
00:09:57.000They're worried about starting a family and whether they can afford the groceries and the housing costs that come along with bringing new life into the world.
00:10:04.000They're worried about whether They can raise their kids in an environment that's safe and secure and not overrun by illegal aliens who are committing violent crime.
00:10:13.000So I think the basic pitch that we have to make is we believe, meaning the President Trump, J.D.
00:10:19.000Vance ticket believes that you should be able to raise your kids in safe neighborhoods.
00:10:34.000If you look at the track record here, Charlie, if you're a young voter in this economy with interest rates skyrocketing, how can you possibly afford to buy a house?
00:10:43.000I have people who've worked for me, Charlie, who make good salaries and they can't afford to buy a house in the Kamala Harris economy.
00:10:50.000So if you want to turn the page on that and get back to an economy where you can afford to live a decent life, you've got to vote for President Trump.
00:10:57.000The generational divide is significant, and even with this switch, Democrats are doing far worse with younger voters than they ever would have anticipated.
00:11:09.000There seems to also be this undercurrent where they're trying to portray Vice President Harris as some sort of a moderate, especially when it comes to the issue of immigration.
00:11:21.000Her record on immigration makes Bernie Sanders blush.
00:11:25.000It has been for open borders, taxpayer-funded benefits.
00:11:28.000She's been talking about how she wants to make crossing into our country a civil offense.
00:11:33.000She compared immigration customs and enforcement to the KKK.
00:11:38.000How does that message resonate in your part of the world, where you're going to be spending a lot of time campaigning?
00:11:44.000By the way, you had an amazing event in Middleton, Ohio.
00:11:49.000You're going to be kind of camping out in that region of the world, which for you is good.
00:11:52.000You get to go home almost every night, which is nice, I'm sure.
00:11:55.000How does that message resonate with voters in western Pennsylvania or southern Michigan?
00:12:02.000You know, Charlie, I think it resonates terribly.
00:12:04.000The idea of letting in thousands, millions of illegal migrants.
00:12:08.000A lot of them who have committed crimes in their own country and then giving them taxpayer funded benefits, it completely turns people off.
00:12:16.000What Kamala Harris is basically saying is we want to allow millions of people in, many of whom are going to bring fentanyl.
00:12:22.000We want to decriminalize their illegal entry in the first place, and then we want to give them Medicaid and Medicare on top of it.
00:12:29.000So you're going to make the border crisis that has already caused a lot of suffering so much worse.
00:12:34.000I think the two biggest issues, obviously, Charlie, are the border and the economy.
00:12:39.000Because when you add 20 million illegal aliens, you drive up the cost of housing, you drive up the cost of food, you increase emergency room wait times.
00:12:48.000Kamala Harris is promising to bring in more illegal aliens and give them more benefits.
00:12:53.000She's going to exacerbate everything that's been wrong with the Biden economy for the last few years.
00:13:10.000In fact, to your point, she's much more liberal than even Joe Biden was.
00:13:14.000So do we want four years, even worse than the last four years, or do we want the four years of President Trump's leadership from 2016 to 2020?
00:13:43.000And, you know, there's a lot of people right now that are making their decisions, and they see a combined ticket for a future America that is uplifting and positive.
00:14:03.000Americans are tired and frustrated by a stalling economy, inflation, endless wars, and the relentless assault on our values.
00:14:09.000Thankfully, there's companies like Patriot Mobile that still believe in America and our Constitution.

00:15:06.000You're living through right now a sugar high.
00:15:09.000There is a Democrat sugar high, and it's going to last a couple weeks.
00:15:14.000You see, for over 18 months, the Democrat base has been very sleepy, not excited about Joe Biden, upset that Donald Trump very well might become the next president.
00:15:24.000Many of them have even resigned to the fact that Trump was going to become president, especially after that debate.
00:15:30.000The elevation of Kamala Harris from vice president to the candidate has unleashed an expected and anticipated sugar high.
00:15:44.000No different than if you were seven years old and you ate a bunch of Twizzlers and Snicker bars and Hershey candy bars and you have all this energy but it goes away after about 45 minutes and that crash is a real one.
00:15:56.000You are seeing a honeymoon period by the media.
00:16:04.000She does not care about the fact that there are 88,000 plus children that are missing in the interior of this country that have been sold into slavery.
00:16:13.000When we get an opportunity to expose the record of Kamala Harris, the honeymoon period will fade.
00:16:20.000But make no mistake, you are about to see a series of polls, a series of news items that show that this is a very close race, and it very well might end up being a very close race.
00:16:34.000Kamala Harris very well might choose Josh Shapiro as her vice president, or Mark Kelly.
00:16:41.000And that would make Arizona far more in play than it is right now.
00:16:45.000And we are doing the work on the ground in Arizona every single day.
00:17:22.000This is a radical individual but it's very important to make sure we emphasize she is a heartless person.
00:17:31.000Her staff has some of the highest turnover we've ever seen in Washington DC.
00:17:36.000Kamala Harris staff exodus 92% gone in three years.
00:17:40.000Anybody that has been around Kamala Harris knows that she is a She is not a sweet person.
00:17:47.000See, Kamala Harris is on TikTok right now.
00:17:50.000Americans are dying of opioid overdoses.
00:17:54.000Our border remains wide open and she was and remains America's border czar.
00:18:00.000So what does this honeymoon period look like?
00:18:03.000Well, first of which, Reuters came out with a poll yesterday and shows that Kamala Harris is up two points on Donald Trump.
00:18:10.000You might say, oh, I don't believe that.
00:18:12.000This is going to be a much closer race.
00:18:15.000That a lot of you are comfortable with.
00:18:16.000This is going to be a much closer race than you would have imagined with Joe Biden.
00:18:21.000This is going to come down to 5,000 votes here, 300 votes here, 200 votes here, which goes to show that every single one of you deciding whether to do the work to find new voters or not is going to be more consequential than ever before.
00:18:34.000And that is why I'm wearing the shirt, Find New Voters.
00:18:37.000Every day, you go out into the streets, you go to the grocery store, and you find a voter or two.
00:18:42.000You find two people and you talk to them about how cruel and radical, cruel and radical Kamala Harris is.
00:18:50.000Here are 17 examples of Kamala Harris's Marxist-Communist far-left record.
00:18:56.000She co-sponsored legislation to protect criminals, hardened criminals, from being deported back to their country of origin.
00:19:05.000She backed Bernie Sanders' Medicare for All legislation.
00:19:10.000She backed banning private health insurance.
00:19:13.000If you guys like your health insurance, she wants to take it from you.
00:19:17.000She supported giving taxpayer-funded coverage to illegals.
00:19:21.000So while you can't afford to go on vacation with your family, she wants to raise your taxes to pay for health coverage for foreigners.
00:19:30.000She has vocally supported banning all fracking, which would result in millions of job losses, including hundreds of thousands of good-paying jobs in Pennsylvania.
00:19:41.000She backed defunding the police and getting rid of all the police.
00:19:45.000She has compared ICE, which does amazing work identifying people that, for example, the person who killed Lake and Riley, or the mother of five in Maryland, she said that ICE is similar to the KKK.
00:19:58.000She wants to ban plastic straws, but not ban late-term abortion.
00:20:03.000She wants, and has defended, banning offshore drilling.
00:20:07.000She wants to undo Donald Trump's border security measure.
00:20:11.000She has and is the border czar of this country.
00:20:16.000She has supported decriminalizing and allowing illegal border crossings, calling it a civil offense, not a criminal offense.
00:20:24.000She said she wouldn't treat illegal aliens as criminals.
00:20:28.000She has called for starting ICE from scratch and get ridding of all immigration customs and enforcement.
00:20:35.000She argued that temporarily closing the border when fentanyl drugs and opioids are coming across and killing our people violates federal law.
00:20:45.000She went out of her way and raised money for the Minnesota Freedom Fund, a far-left organization that pays to bail out and jail violent criminals, including accused murderers and rapists.
00:20:57.000She supported, vocally, cuts to Los Angeles' police department.
00:21:03.000She called efforts to add more police to the streets, wrong-headed thinking.
00:21:10.000Kamala Harris was America's most liberal senator.
00:21:17.000She is a liberal that makes Gavin Newsom look like a moderate.
00:21:22.000And by the way, I'm not even touching the surface about how she probably supports, we don't have it on the record yet, state-sanctioned kidnapping of children under the trans agenda.
00:21:31.000Where does Kamala Harris stand on puberty blockers for 11-year-olds?
00:21:35.000Where does Kamala Harris stand on taxpayer-funded abortions?
00:21:41.000Kamala Harris is a cold, cruel, cunning opportunist.
00:21:47.000She couldn't care less about the suffering of Gen Z not being able to own a home.
00:21:54.000She does not have the sympathy or the empathy about the 110,000 plus Americans that died from drug overdoses.
00:22:03.000Kamala Harris knew that Joe Biden was sick and not up to the task and she worked with Obama, Pelosi, and Schumer and led him to the slaughter and is now taking his throne.
00:22:15.000In fact, this is something we're hearing more and more in focus groups from voters on the ground.
00:22:23.000I think that if the DNC would have taken this path maybe two months ago, when these same problems existed, I might have leaned towards Kamala, our vice president.
00:22:34.000Now, knowing the things that they've been hiding in plain sight from the American public, I cannot find it in myself to vote for a Democrat, and potentially I might never vote for a Democrat again.
00:23:05.000On debate night, she wasn't there with Joe Biden.
00:23:08.000The aesthetics and the visual showed her awfully presidential.
00:23:12.000She was ready for this, but she allowed the process to play out.
00:23:16.000Kamala Harris and her team worked quietly with Barack Hussein Obama, and Chuck U. Schumer, and Nancy Pelosi, and the New York Times, and they launched a coup against a sitting president, and she knew about his condition.
00:23:30.000And they couldn't care less about the national security implications, and Democrat voters out there, your primary vote means nothing.
00:23:39.000Kamala Harris says, I earned this nomination.
00:25:45.000If there's ever an honest reporter in D.C., this will surface.
00:25:49.000There was almost certainly a meeting between Kamala Harris and Nancy Pelosi and Schumer and one of Obama's lieutenants, if not Obama himself, but he doesn't like to involve himself in this because he's lazy and he's careful.
00:26:51.000The day after my son was born, by the way, I wasn't in the chair.
00:26:55.000And so May 15th was the day everything changed, and it probably went something like this.
00:27:00.000On May 14th, the day my son was born, which went something like this.
00:27:05.000Listen, Joe, you've been a great president.
00:27:07.000The polling is not where it should be.
00:27:10.000What if we do a summer debate, reset the race, the country can see how crazy Donald Trump is and how amazing you are, and we're going to be off to the races.
00:27:20.000I bet Joe Biden's instincts We're probably against the summer debate.
00:27:26.000Somebody convinced Joe Biden to do it.
00:27:29.000We were worried the debate was a trap for Trump.
00:27:32.000In some ways it was because we would much rather run against Joe Biden instead of this whole reset race where there's so many unknown variables.
00:27:39.000So it was a trap for both Trump and Biden.
00:27:43.000But it really was primarily a trap for Biden.
00:27:47.000And even with 10 days preparation at Camp David, Joe Biden In front of the whole country was unable to complete sentences.
00:29:17.000John King right out of the debate on CNN said, well, I'm getting lots of texts from senior Democrats saying Joe Biden has to drop out of the race.
00:29:25.000And the entire CNN reaction was over the top.
00:29:30.000The optics of Kamala Harris as she was remote was, I'm the president, he is not.
00:29:35.000Why did she not travel with Joe Biden to Atlanta?
00:29:38.000Little moral support, little debate coaching.
00:29:41.000Why wasn't Kamala Harris in the debate prep room with Joe Biden?
00:29:45.000Why wasn't Kamala Harris there in the spin room?
00:31:26.000Yeah, is that a position you agree with?
00:31:29.000We need to probably think about starting from scratch.
00:31:31.000Outdated, it is wrong-headed thinking to think that the only way you're gonna get communities to be safe is to put more police officers on the street.
00:31:39.000Why do you support changing the dietary guidelines?
00:31:45.000People who are convicted in prison, like the Boston Marathon bomber, on death row, people who are convicted of sexual assault, they should be able to vote?
00:32:54.000They're going to try to frame her as a candidate that has nothing to do with the current regime.
00:33:01.000This is exactly why I don't think Biden is going to resign.
00:33:06.000There's some people that say, oh, you know, they want to try to give her some experience.
00:33:09.000No, they want to try to make the first female president deal something that still could happen as an opportunity to try to gin up a lot of young female voters.
00:33:22.000And secondly, and most importantly, they are going to try and distance her from all of the workings of this administration, this regime.
