00:01:40.000 We are tabulating some of this data here at Americopa and Yavapai counties in early voting, and just some perspective here.

00:01:47.000 In 2020, there were 655,000 total GOP ballot requests.

00:01:48.000 there were 655,000 total GOP ballot requests. In 2022, there were six, this is

00:01:54.000 just for the primary in Maricopa County, 662,000 total GOP ballot requests and in

00:02:00.000 2024, 705 total GOP ballot requests. So that is 50,000 more primary Republican

00:02:09.000 voters which are hyper engaged.

00:02:11.000 If you vote in a primary, it's almost a one-to-one connection to vote in the general.

00:02:15.000 That's 50,000 net new Republican voters in just Maricopa.

00:02:21.000 And remember, Arizona was decided by 10,000 ballots in 2020.

00:02:27.000 So that's 50,000 net new.

00:02:29.000 So even if half of those end up voting in November, that is more than two and a half times the deficit margin in Arizona from 2020.

00:02:38.000 That's no guarantees, but it shows that the hundreds of full-time people that we have on the ground in Arizona are doing work and starting to expand the base.

00:02:50.000 Joining us now is Raheem Kassam.

00:02:53.000 Raheem, welcome to the program.

00:02:55.000 Raheem, your reaction these last couple of days and what you've been seeing in Europe.

00:02:59.000 Yeah, Charlie, I'm so glad I managed to catch the end of the last hour because I completely agree with you.

00:03:06.000 I think there is a complacency factor at the moment that is tantamount to political malpractice that's going on.

00:03:15.000 I think, you know, there are plenty of things to say about, you know, the campaign.

00:03:20.000 On the Trump side, and I have some prescriptions that I think need to be enacted soon, but the biggest story is, of course, and you see the data coming out, you've talked about the Marist poll, there's another new Electoral College bit of data that just came out a few moments ago, which shows Biden retaking the lead there.

00:03:41.000 And I just think this, the world can see.

00:03:44.000 The world can see, right, what's going on here.

00:03:47.000 But unfortunately, we are in a situation where especially, especially this reliance, I think, on Hispanic and black voters is now ebbing away.

00:03:56.000 and I've also noted interestingly in some of the Rasmussen polling that came

00:04:00.000 out today that that is also the case when you when you have those candidates

00:04:06.000 introduced into the into the prompt on the polls. So complacency, talk of a

00:04:11.000 landslide, any of this is I think a total disgrace.

00:04:16.000 I also happen to have my own theory on what they're actually going to do between now and November.

00:04:21.000 We've got an article going up at thenationalpolls.com very shortly because it links back Back to what I saw in Europe.

00:04:28.000 What I saw was, you know, two snap elections.

00:04:32.000 That is the key phrase introducing this snap factor at the last minute, like Macron did against Le Pen, like Rishi Sunak did to try and keep Reform Party and Nigel Farage out of the equation.

00:04:45.000 And I think you're going to see a kind of snap moment here in the US as well in October.

00:04:50.000 The article title, by the way, is going to be October surprise, Biden's demise question mark because it was interesting to me to read Axios this morning and they say the number one group of people who are concerned about Biden going into the election as the nominee is the Clinton diaspora.

00:05:09.000 Well that sounds like a A threat to me, if anything.

00:05:13.000 And I think, you know, you can't put it past... They've done everything, right?

00:05:17.000 They've broken every law.

00:05:17.000 They've gone against the Constitution.

00:05:20.000 They've locked people up.

00:05:21.000 This would be nothing out of the stretch of the imagination, I think, that we should have when discussing these things, to think that they might just load up his schedule a little too heavily to try and peace him out.

00:05:33.000 Look, I want to just take a step back here.

00:05:35.000 The left is freaking out, and when they freak out, they organize and get stuff done.

00:05:39.000 It's now time for us to realize that, according to the new projections of Nate Silver, it's very slight, but Joe Biden is now favored to win the presidency.

00:05:48.000 I know that's shocking for those of us that see that Joe Biden mixes up Putin and Zelensky.

00:05:52.000 It's not shocking to us on this program.

00:05:54.000 He's had two weeks of uninterrupted press time.

00:05:57.000 And two weeks of uninterrupted ability to, you know, make predictions, to kind of just articulate to the American people his agenda.

00:06:08.000 So right now Donald Trump is back to being the underdog according to 538.

00:06:13.000 And it's going to require grassroots work.

00:06:16.000 What things do you think that Donald Trump needs to do in the convention in particular to increase his chance of winning?

00:06:22.000 Well, I agree with you.

00:06:23.000 All publicity is good publicity, even when it shows you stumbling around and searching for words.

00:06:28.000 And I think necessarily that's because the lack of trust that most people have in the media, the lack of trust that most people have in the political class.

00:06:35.000 And they see when those two machines come together and start attacking somebody, Whether it's Donald Trump or whether it's Joe Biden, the American public, much like the British public as an example, they say, hold on a minute, something's amiss here.

00:06:47.000 We don't trust these people.

00:06:49.000 Clearly they've got an agenda and clearly they're out to get this guy.

00:06:51.000 So that is kind of artificially propping Biden's numbers up here.

00:06:55.000 I think when President Trump and when the Republicans all get together, and I'll be there in Milwaukee too, They have to show a level above all of this fray.

00:07:08.000 They have to almost behave as if they were all ready.

00:07:11.000 And this is why I like the meeting with Viktor Orban last night.

00:07:14.000 They have to show that actually the transition has already begun.

00:07:18.000 You know, we're ready to take the reins.

00:07:20.000 We're not complacent about anything.

00:07:22.000 We're going to earn every single vote, but to show that you actually have that ability.

00:07:26.000 And it's the same thing, by the way.

00:07:28.000 That you saw Nigel Farage doing out on the campaign trail in the UK is rising above that fray, rising above the pettiness, rising above what the media and the political class are throwing around and really just charting your own course to the Oval Office.

00:07:42.000 That would be my strategy towards it instead of sort of getting in and mucking in and making more fun of Biden and taking more digs at him.

00:07:50.000 It's actually maybe there's a little sympathy you can extend and say, hey, you know, these people who are parading him around and trying to get him to cling on no No matter what, those are the people that deserve the American public's ire.

00:08:01.000 We would never do that to you.

00:08:03.000 And, you know, to set a new path from there on out to say, this can never happen again in our country.

00:08:10.000 I completely agree.

00:08:11.000 What do you think about the idea here, Rahim, that Joe Biden is going to run a fake populist campaign?

00:08:17.000 I hypothesize this.

00:08:19.000 The elites are against me.

00:08:20.000 The powerful people are against me.

00:08:22.000 If he's able to do that, and we don't preempt it if we are not prepared, that could be a campaign with some lethality.

00:08:30.000 Massive.

00:08:31.000 You're absolutely right.

00:08:32.000 Massive.

00:08:34.000 You saw it with Fetterman.

00:08:36.000 You know, you've seen it with AOC.

00:08:38.000 They really do know.

00:08:39.000 I mean, even, frankly, Bernie Sanders, fake populist.

00:08:42.000 Barack Obama, fake populist.

00:08:45.000 He's seen that they can turn the empathy on and the pathos on when it suits them.

00:08:51.000 And I think that is a major danger.

00:08:53.000 And like I just said, he's going to be able to turn around, and he is able to turn around right now and say, look at

00:08:58.000 this.

00:08:59.000 You know, the corporate media class, the big donor class, the DC political unions and everything like that,

00:09:09.000 of course, of course, they don't want somebody with an independent streak,

00:09:14.000 somebody who might tell them no when they're used to taking no,

00:09:17.000 not used to taking no for an answer.

00:09:19.000 And Joe Biden, remember, has kind of always, even though it's not true, has kind of always set himself out as the underdog and has always set himself out as the

00:09:28.000 comeback kid.

00:09:29.000 We've heard for decades of him referring to himself as the comeback kid.

00:09:33.000 And so it's kind of all of this stuff is kind of playing into his hands.

00:09:37.000 And look, I get it for the audience out there saying, well, what are we supposed to do?

00:09:40.000 Just ignore the fact that he's completely incompetent and doddery on stage

00:09:44.000 and can't remember people's names and job titles.

00:09:46.000 No, you're not supposed to do that.

00:09:47.000 But what you are supposed to do is make the case for your victory besides that, apart from that, a positive case for victory, a positive case for Donald Trump.

00:09:55.000 Not just, hey, he's not the other guy.

00:09:57.000 That's what the left do.

00:09:59.000 That's what the Barack Obamas want to do.

00:10:02.000 And I think it's a trap to fall into.

00:10:05.000 Joe Biden is actually seeing a polling increase because all press is good press.

00:10:10.000 And now look, if we're able to position this as Joe Biden is not mentally up to the job, terrific.

00:10:18.000 And I've said this before, it's a 50-50 shot for Donald Trump to win in November.

00:10:22.000 Now, here's the good news.

00:10:24.000 Donald Trump has not really banned campaign in the last two weeks.

00:10:26.000 When Donald Trump gets into full campaign mode and starts framing the race in the correct way, and the RNC, I think, is coming at a perfect time.

00:10:34.000 It's a perfect time.

00:10:35.000 It's time to play offense.

00:10:37.000 As soon as Biden is the nominee and July 21st sets in, it is time for us to go full throttle and preempt the populist fakery that is going to emerge from Joe Biden.

00:10:50.000 Rahim, National Pulse, is that correct?

00:10:52.000 Yeah, TheNationalPulse.com, Charlie, and I agree with you.

00:10:55.000 Listen, I love the rallies, but the world wants to see Donald Trump doing more of the bodega visits, doing more of the meet and greets, the hyper-personal stuff.

00:11:04.000 I think that's where he needs to go now.

00:11:06.000 TheNationalPulse.com, yes, thank you.

00:11:11.000 You might have heard Mike Lindell and MyPillow no longer have the support of their box stores or shopping channels the way they used to.

00:12:07.000 So how does all this tie into what we saw in France and the UK, in particular France, as France did one of the goofiest and also sinister things where Macron handed the keys to the government to communists, just such so much that immigration would not be restricted.

00:12:26.000 Well, Charlie, it's not just the immigration question, although that is a massive part of it, of course, but the French political settlement as it currently sits is in complete shambles, and mostly because of President Emmanuel Macron and, of course, his big corporate allies. Now, you'd have seen in the United Kingdom, Rishi

00:12:50.000 Sunak, the Prime Minister, the former Prime Minister, now called a snap election.

00:12:55.000 Emmanuel Macron did the very same thing. Their approach to these situations is, well, look,

00:13:02.000 if we can't beat them fair and square, if we can't beat them in a war of ideas, in a

00:13:06.000 public debate, in a public setting over a long, lengthy period of time, then what we'll

00:13:12.000 do is we'll kind of truncate the election period, the campaign period, and launch these

00:13:18.000 both massive scare tactics, huge amounts of threats, just like, I mean, back in 2016

00:13:23.000 with Trump and with Brexit as well, they did the same sorts of things, but over a very

00:13:27.000 short period of time.

00:13:29.000 Because he knows, just like Sunak knew, These parties don't have a ton in terms of resources.

00:13:36.000 They don't have huge staff complements to deal with everything that gets thrown at them every single day.

00:13:41.000 You know how campaigns work.

00:13:43.000 You know that actually most individuals on campaigns are doing the jobs of about five to ten people at any given time.

00:13:50.000 And especially if you are a smaller party, especially if you're an upstart party, And you mentioned France.

00:13:55.000 I mean, they just went through the European election cycle.

00:13:59.000 Macron's gambit was, hey, Le Pen, her party, that apparatus is simply not going to be able to fight a very short, very intense domestic election campaign.

00:14:10.000 And to some extent, to some extent, he was right.

00:14:13.000 Now, I'm not so down in the dumps about the result that came out of France.

00:14:16.000 I know a lot of people were disappointed.

00:14:18.000 I'm disappointed by the fact that Le Pen and Rassemblement Nationale, the populist nationalists, didn't quite reach expectations.

00:14:26.000 But then I always ask people, who set those expectations?

00:14:29.000 It was the corporate media, the pollsters, and the talking heads on television that kept hyping, oh they're going to win, oh they're going to win, they're going to take over the parliament, it's going to be a Vichy government all over again. 0.82

00:14:42.000 They have this two-round voting system.

00:14:43.000 When the second round of voting came along, I was there, I was on the ground.

00:14:47.000 It came out that over the course of the prior week, Macron had done deals, as you say, with the Communists, with the Islamists, with the Greens, with the Socialists, and cobbled together this new Popular Front Alliance.

00:15:01.000 As a coalition in a multi-party system in order to keep Le Pen and her Assemblement Nationale away from being the majority in the French Assembly.

00:15:12.000 That's really interesting because the coalitions might be bigger than her but she is still the leader of the single largest party in the French Assembly right now and she still increased the number of deputies, members of Parliament, that they have in the French Assembly.

00:15:26.000 So, I don't think it's a reason to be despondent.

00:15:30.000 A lot of my friends over there were, of course, on that night.

00:15:33.000 And I can understand why, given that, again, the expectations were being raised for them.

00:15:39.000 But actually, there's a lot to build on for the presidential election, which is just now a couple of years in the future.

00:15:46.000 The connection between Europe and America is quite remarkable on how one political environment plays into the other.

00:15:54.000 Rahim, the final question I have here is the story of what's happening in France with the establishment going with the communists.

00:16:04.000 What would that look like here in the States?

00:16:08.000 Carnage!

00:16:12.000 It's like if you had Hillary Clinton or Joe Biden inviting Bernie Sanders and Jill Stein and all the rest, Cornel West, into government with them, right?

00:16:29.000 And by the way, don't discount that happening in the United States too.

00:16:33.000 The globalists have their backs against the wall all across the world.

00:16:37.000 And I suspect that if my October surprise thing is correct, then Kamala Harris will try to make deals with people like Jill Stein, with people like Cornel West, in order to not say get off the ballot because it's too late for all of that, but just to say, hey, turn your voters out in favor of us, and maybe there's some cabinet positions in it for you. 1.00

00:16:56.000 This is the level of diabolical behavior that we've started to see from the globalists who

00:17:02.000 are trying to cling on to power and of course the far left are all too happy to

00:17:06.000 do those deals because they don't have a route to power in and of

00:17:09.000 themselves. This new popular front alliance in France were absolutely nobodies, were

00:17:15.000 fringe fringe political figures until Macron elevated them. Rahim Kassam,

00:17:19.000 check out the national pulse.com. Thank you so much. Thank you Charlie.

00:17:24.000 Joining us now is David Bossie, president of Citizens United

00:17:27.000 and is the man behind the new Trump movie which is Trump's rescue mission

00:17:34.000 David, welcome to the program.

00:17:35.000 Tell us all about it.

00:17:36.000 Hey, thanks for having me back, Charlie.

00:17:38.000 Been too long.

00:17:39.000 This is an important film in the most important year in the history of America, in my opinion.

00:17:46.000 We are at a crucial point in America.

00:17:50.000 We either win this election this November and Donald Trump takes over the White House.

00:17:55.000 We win the House and Senate and save America.

00:17:58.000 Or we are destined for the ash heap of history.

00:18:01.000 I really think that, and I know you do too.

00:18:06.000 Guys like you and me, we say, this is the most important election in our lifetime.

00:18:09.000 Well, guess what?

00:18:10.000 This is the most consequential election in American history, in my opinion.

00:18:14.000 Donald Trump must save America, and that's why we made this movie.

00:18:19.000 And everybody needs to see this film to educate yourself so that you can tell your friends and neighbors, your family, why Joe Biden, and not just Joe Biden, but the crazy left and their disastrous policies, what they have done to America over the last four years, versus Donald Trump's four years of peace and prosperity.

00:18:40.000 Joe Biden and the crazy left's four years of American carnage, of open borders, of economic disaster,

00:18:48.000 of irresponsible and reckless spending, of a disastrous foreign policy,

00:18:54.000 new wars across the Middle East and in the Ukraine.

00:19:00.000 We are headed in a direction that is untenable, and only Donald Trump is able to save America.

00:19:07.000 So go to TrumpSavesAmericaMovie.com, watch the trailer, and you will be able to watch this film right now today.

00:19:17.000 Let's get the trailer going here. 1.00

00:19:18.000 144.

00:19:19.000 It's an excellent film and President Trump is going to introduce the film at 3 p.m.

00:19:25.000 on Wednesday.

00:19:25.000 This is just part of the trailer.

00:19:27.000 Play cut 144.

00:19:29.000 When Joe Biden came into office, he inherited success.

00:19:33.000 All Biden had to do was do nothing.

00:19:34.000 Just not screw it up.

00:19:36.000 We went from safe streets to record crime.

00:19:38.000 Are you for defunding the police?

00:19:39.000 How are you defining defund the police?

00:19:41.000 We went from $2 gas to $4 gas.

00:19:43.000 We are in the longest sustained period of a wrong track number that high in the history of our poll.

00:19:49.000 We went from stable prices to record inflation.

00:19:52.000 Over a trillion, three hundred million, trillion, three hundred million dollars.

00:19:55.000 Who are you going to vote for?

00:19:59.000 Trump.

00:20:00.000 And why?

00:20:02.000 I'll let you guess.

00:20:03.000 I'm willing to do whatever I have to do to save our country and to save our Constitution.

00:20:09.000 He's doing this for one reason and one reason alone.

00:20:11.000 Because we are on a rescue mission.

00:20:13.000 Trump's Rescue Mission.

00:20:16.000 Saving America.

00:20:18.000 The stakes have never been higher, David.

00:20:19.000 Tell us more.

00:20:21.000 You know what, Charlie?

00:20:22.000 We're 56 days away from early voting in North Carolina.

00:20:28.000 We are 66 days away from Pennsylvanians voting.

00:20:33.000 This thing is around the corner.

00:20:35.000 Everyone needs to be armed.

00:20:37.000 With the facts armed with the truth and be able to get every single voter educated to make sure that they don't fall for this ever again.

00:20:47.000 Look, we know that the Democrats are going to do everything in their power to try and claw and scratch and steal this election.

00:20:54.000 We know it.

00:20:55.000 We have to win by more than they're able to do that.

00:20:58.000 And that's the key to this November.

00:21:00.000 We have to identify our voters and turn them out.

00:21:03.000 And using things like this, using a film like this is really an energizer and President Trump loves this film.

00:21:13.000 President Trump is coming at the convention, going to be introducing this film on Wednesday to the audience.

00:21:19.000 And we're so proud of that.

00:21:21.000 And so I hope people can come and see it there.

00:21:24.000 If you're in Milwaukee, join us.

00:21:26.000 But if you're not, go to this website, TrumpSavesAmericaMovie.com.

00:21:31.000 You can watch it today.

00:21:32.000 So you're saying that early voting begins September 6th now in North Carolina?

00:21:37.000 I mean, this is now voting season day, Bossy.

00:21:40.000 Charlie, it used to be election day and we would have the results that night.

00:21:45.000 Nowadays, Charlie, it is exactly right.

00:21:48.000 More than two months of voting.

00:21:50.000 September 6th.

00:21:52.000 Ballots drop in North Carolina.

00:21:54.000 Unbelievable.

00:21:55.000 September 16th, they drop in Pennsylvania.

00:21:57.000 So we have to be ready for it.

00:22:00.000 And so it's, and that's two months from now.

00:22:03.000 People think, oh, it's off into November.

00:22:05.000 It's not.

00:22:06.000 We have to win this election in September and October, not in November.

00:22:10.000 And that's the key to this election.

00:22:12.000 We have to win it early because we know what the Democrats are going to do.

00:22:16.000 They're going to, which is what they did in 2020.

00:22:19.000 Yes, and so the message we must get out, what is your research showing, Dave, as far as the issues that are the most persuasive for independent voters or disaffected Democrats as we try to bring this message?

00:22:32.000 I know you talk about this in your excellent film.

00:22:35.000 It is so important that we do talk about these issues.

00:22:39.000 The pocketbook issues of the economy, of inflation and of costs, of Of the staggering costs of groceries, the staggering costs of mortgages and mortgage rates and of rent, of electricity, of the things that are the staples of the American life.

00:22:59.000 We talk about those in depth, not just with Republicans, but as you saw from those clips, we talk to your average American, independents and Democrats, and that is who we're going to win over.

00:23:10.000 And then the open border.

00:23:12.000 The border and the carnage that is created by Biden's open border policies over the last three and a half years, where now every American city is a border city.

00:23:26.000 We say those things, but it's reality.

00:23:29.000 You look at the crime rates, you look at the streets that are filled with folks who are homeless, that are filled with criminals.

00:23:40.000 Drugs, the fentanyl problem, the chaos and the carnage that Joe Biden has created at the southern border.

00:23:46.000 Is bringing people to the Republican Party for the first time.

00:23:50.000 They're opening their eyes.

00:23:51.000 And so we need to be talking about those two issues predominantly, but obviously the mess that Joe Biden has created around the world.

00:24:00.000 You know, America's leadership is in question now.

00:24:04.000 And when Donald Trump was in office, no one worried about where America was.

00:24:09.000 They knew that there was a commander in chief who could take that four o'clock AM call, right?

00:24:15.000 Joe Biden, You know, no one has any hope.

00:24:20.000 No one has belief in him as the Commander-in-Chief any longer.

00:24:25.000 And that's why you have Putin running amok, Xi running amok, you have North Korea testing missiles, you have Iran absolutely running over the world with the money that Joe Biden's administration funded them with, And is now funding terror across the globe.

00:24:44.000 So those are the issues that we talk about in this film.

00:24:48.000 And we also obviously talk about Joe Biden's cognitive decline.

00:24:52.000 And I think that the American people, when they look at this film, there's no way to come out of it, but being for Donald Trump and, and, and, and conversely being against the crazy Joe Biden or whoever they nominate's agenda.

00:25:11.000 Hey everybody, Charlie Kirk here.

00:25:12.000 What an unbelievable start to 2024.

00:25:14.000 We had last month saving babies with preborn by providing ultrasounds.

00:25:18.000 And we're doing again this year what we did last year.

00:25:21.000 We're going to stand for life because remaining silent in the face of the most radically pro-death administration is not an option.

00:25:26.000 As Sir Edmund Burke said, the only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing, and we're not going to do nothing.

00:25:32.000 Your gift to preborn will give a girl the truth about what's happening in her body so that she can make the right choice.

00:25:39.000 $280 can save 10 babies.

00:25:41.000 $28 a month can save a baby a month all year long.

00:25:43.000 And a $15,000 gift will provide a complete ultrasound machine that will save thousands of babies for years and years to come.

00:25:49.000 And we'll also save moms from a lifetime of pain and regret.

00:25:53.000 Call 833-850-2229.

00:25:56.000 That's 833-850-2229.

00:25:57.000 Or click on the pre-born banner at charliekirk.com.

00:26:01.000 That is charliekirk.com and click on the pre-born banner.

00:26:04.000 Also save moms from a lifetime of pain and regret.

00:26:06.000 I'm a donor of this organization.

00:26:08.000 They're terrific.

00:26:09.000 Go to charliekirk.com, click on the pre-born banner.

00:26:14.000 And Dave, I want to get your thoughts on this.

00:26:16.000 Do you believe, based on your research you did with this film, that Joe Biden's going to remain, that he will be the nominee?

00:26:22.000 I do.

00:26:23.000 And Charlie, guys like us, we're mechanics in the political world, right?

00:26:27.000 We know how these things go on.

00:26:30.000 I'm actually the co-chairman of next week's convention, and I'm honored to be the co-chairman of the national convention.

00:26:37.000 It is very difficult right now, unless Joe Biden steps away, unless he decides that he's not going to do it again.

00:26:45.000 And I got to tell you, there's no way Joe Biden's letting him do that.

00:26:49.000 She is not giving up the power and Joe Biden's not giving up the power.

00:26:53.000 So I think that they have a very tough road ahead of them as the Democrats, but I got to tell you, it doesn't matter.

00:27:00.000 We have to do everything we can to win.

00:27:04.000 Whether Joe Biden's in an iron lung, it doesn't matter.

00:27:08.000 We have to defeat him or whoever the nominee is to save this country.

00:27:15.000 I completely agree with that.

00:27:16.000 Final question here, Dave, is that it seems as if Trump is stronger and stronger with Hispanic voters, black voters, and younger voters.

00:27:24.000 However, there's some softness in the polls temporarily with older voters or baby boomer voters.

00:27:30.000 That is one area we can improve upon.

00:27:32.000 How would you say, from the political, mechanical, and messaging standpoint, that we can do better with those demographics?

00:27:40.000 You know, it's the bread and butter issues to them as well.

00:27:44.000 One is it's American exceptionalism.

00:27:47.000 Those voters are open to that, what we used to call that Reaganite theme of American exceptionalism.

00:27:54.000 The greatness that was America and can be again, number one.

00:27:58.000 Number two is the staples that the older voters count on and paid for their entire lives, whether it's Medicare or Social Security. 0.61

00:28:09.000 Joe Biden has done things to dismantle and destroy both Medicare and Social Security over the last three and a half years.

00:28:18.000 And so Donald Trump is going to come into the White House and save both of those programs through cutting the reckless spending, look, and stopping the Illegal immigration influx. 0.97

00:28:31.000 That is what is absolutely decimating our financial power in the world is paying for all of these people that we can't afford.

00:28:41.000 We can't even afford to take care of Americans. 0.99

00:28:44.000 And we've brought in tens of millions of people over the last three and a half years that the American people are paying for.

00:28:50.000 And it is going to create a permanent problem.

00:28:53.000 For both Medicare and Social Security.

00:28:55.000 And I think articulating those messages to that demographic that you're talking about is going to massively move numbers for this November.

00:29:06.000 Dave Bossie, website one more time for our audience if they want to see the film.

00:29:09.000 I encourage them to do that.

00:29:10.000 Please go trumpsavesamericamovie.com.

00:29:14.000 Go right now.

00:29:15.000 You can watch it today.

00:29:16.000 Be the first to see it.

00:29:17.000 The site just went live today, Charlie.

00:29:19.000 Very good.

00:29:19.000 Dave Bossie, thank you so much.

00:29:20.000 See a convention in a couple days.

00:29:22.000 Thank you so much for having me.

00:29:24.000 The coup is continuing against Joe Biden, but we believe that he is going to stay.

00:29:29.000 He is white-knuckling and remaining in power.

00:29:33.000 Let's go to Cut116.

00:29:34.000 This is Rep Connolly saying, I don't know if Joe Biden will be our candidate next week.

00:29:38.000 Play Cut116.

00:29:40.000 And last question before I let you go.

00:29:41.000 Next week, will Joe Biden still be your candidate next week?

00:29:45.000 I don't know.

00:29:47.000 Events are unfolding very fast.

00:29:49.000 And, you know, I want to create space for the President of the White House to make a careful, reflective, and patriotic decision.

00:29:59.000 The more Democrats that are turning their back on Biden, the more just clumsy and uncomfortable that nominating convention is going to be.

00:30:05.000 The forcing function is on July 21st, and the blue wall is still the key.

00:30:11.000 If Donald Trump can win Pennsylvania, Michigan, or Wisconsin, which is where the convention is next week, looks as if that is what's going to determine if he is ultimately successful.

00:30:21.000 But who should he choose as vice president?

00:30:24.000 President Trump is leaving us in suspense for his vice presidential selection.

00:30:31.000 It's probably going to happen during the convention and according to all public reports it is J.D.

00:30:37.000 Vance or Doug Burgum who are the final two and maybe Marco Rubio.

00:30:41.000 Now there could be an out of left field pick but that seems increasingly unlikely.

00:30:47.000 Breaking news, last night Karl Rove endorsed Governor Burgum.

00:30:52.000 And I'm not here to say anything negative about Governor Burgum.

00:30:55.000 I'm, of course, very much in J.D.

00:30:58.000 Vance's camp and supportive of J.D.

00:31:00.000 Vance.

00:31:00.000 Hope J.D.

00:31:01.000 Vance gets it.

00:31:02.000 But that's definitely a noteworthy endorsement.

00:31:04.000 Karl Rove coming out for Doug Burgum.

00:31:07.000 And I'm curious, email us freedom at charliekirk.com, if the finalists were J.D.

00:31:11.000 Vance or Doug Burgum, who do you think that Donald Trump should select?

00:31:16.000 Mark Thiessen went and attacked J.D.

00:31:19.000 Vance yesterday on Fox News and said, oh, J.D.

00:31:21.000 Vance doesn't have any Rust Belt appeal.

00:31:24.000 Let's make sure we're very clear on this.

00:31:25.000 J.D.

00:31:25.000 Vance is one of the most popular Rust Belt senators right now.

00:31:30.000 And it was the same clip, one in the back, where they were bashing J.D.

00:31:33.000 Vance on Fox News yesterday.

00:31:36.000 Where they were saying, oh, J.D.

00:31:38.000 Vance is not popular.

00:31:39.000 Let me be very clear.

00:31:40.000 They don't like J.D.

00:31:41.000 Vance because J.D.

00:31:43.000 Vance is philosophically and politically consistent with Donald Trump.

00:31:50.000 Here is Mark Thiessen and Karl Rove They're endorsing Doug Burgum and attacking J.D.

00:31:56.000 Vance.

00:31:57.000 Kind of makes me like J.D.

00:31:58.000 even more.

00:31:58.000 PlayCut 132.

00:32:16.000 Hanson.

00:32:16.000 I stand corrected.

00:32:17.000 Mark is absolutely right.

00:32:19.000 Absolutely right.

00:32:21.000 Look, I'm with Josh on this, though.

00:32:25.000 Of the three that names have mentioned, Doug Burgum is not only the safe pick, but also gives him some advantage in that he's got a successful governor who's the governor of the second largest energy-producing state in the Union.

00:32:37.000 And if you want to make energy Uh, an issue in the campaign.

00:32:40.000 Who better than that?

00:32:41.000 But I'm with Josh.

00:32:42.000 I think we got to think about Donald Trump as not just simply the former president and potentially future president of the United States, but the executive producer of The Apprentice.

00:32:52.000 And there may be a couple of twists and turns before this thing is all done.

00:32:55.000 Alright, Juan, who scares you the most as a Democrat?

00:32:58.000 I think Rubio.

00:33:00.000 Thanks, Juan.

00:33:01.000 I have nothing against Rubio.

00:33:02.000 I've always liked Rubio for a while.

00:33:05.000 And so it looks like the jousting is continuing.

00:33:08.000 J.D.

00:33:08.000 Vance v. Dugberg.

00:33:11.000 The predicted markets show J.D.

00:33:13.000 Vance as the favorite, and I just can imagine the knives are out right now.

00:33:18.000 J.D.

00:33:18.000 Vance is ascending in his likelihood of potentially becoming Trump's vice presidential selection.

00:33:25.000 And Donald Trump came out, remember at CPAC, and said, The Republican Party was ruled by freaks, neocons, globalists, open border zealots, and fools.

00:33:34.000 We're never going back to the party of Paul Ryan, Karl Rove, and Jeb Bush.

00:33:38.000 That was Donald Trump at CPAC.

00:33:41.000 So we shall see what happens.

00:33:45.000 opens an opportunity to be able to win over younger voters.

00:33:50.000 The data is screaming at us right now.

00:33:52.000 It is screaming at us.

00:33:54.000 Please put somebody on the ticket under the age of 50. 0.71

00:33:57.000 He's under the age of 40!

00:33:59.000 Please put somebody on the ticket that allows us to have a bridge to young families.

00:34:04.000 Please put somebody on the ticket that has a bridge to the needs, wants, anxieties, concerns of people that cannot make ends meet in Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin.

00:34:13.000 And you could effectively camp JD out in Western Pennsylvania and say, run up the score in Western Pennsylvania.

00:34:20.000 And this will keep the movement alive and having Donald Trump, J.D.

00:34:24.000 Vance with the exact same worldviews.

00:34:26.000 You guys know where I stand on this.

00:34:27.000 I've been very clear on it.

00:34:29.000 Again, I'm not going to say anything negative against Governor Burgum.

00:34:34.000 And I'll just kind of put the facts forward there.

00:34:36.000 And so however you guys feel, email me freedom at charliekirk.com.

00:34:39.000 If those were the finalists, if it was J.D.

00:34:41.000 versus Doug Burgum, what would your opinion be?

00:34:45.000 Thanks so much for listening, everybody.

00:34:46.000 Email us as always freedom at charliekirk.com.

00:34:48.000 Thanks so much for listening and God bless.
