00:00:31.000I registered him to vote, registered his wife to vote.
00:00:34.000Boom, two new MAGA patriots registered to vote in Arizona.
00:00:37.000And it got me thinking, how many low-propensity voters are out there that are not registered to vote, that believe what we believe, that even wear the apparel that we care about.

00:02:33.000But what if we look back and we realize we were just inches away from victory and that's when we decided to give up?
00:02:39.000Join us and thousands of American patriots for the summer convention that all are invited.
00:02:47.000You're going to hear how we're going to win in 2024.
00:02:51.000With the biggest speakers in the movement, victory, President Donald J. Trump.
00:02:56.000We're going to fight and we're going to win.
00:02:58.000Charlie Kirk, the late Ramaswamy, Governor Christy North, Dr. Gen Carson, Steve Bannon, Candace Owens, Laura Trump, Senator Rick Scott, Congressman Matt Gates, Benny Johnson, Jack Pisovic, and more.
00:03:20.000June 14th through 16th, 2024 is our final battle in Detroit, Michigan.
00:03:26.000The great silent majority is rising like never before.
00:05:01.000Well, it's not like they're doing all that great.
00:05:03.000And they got crazy candidates all over the country.
00:05:06.000Have you taken a look at the Arizona Republican Party lately?
00:05:10.000So, yes, I am, I don't say frustrated.
00:05:15.000And I do think the president has to deal with the age issue is suffocating him.
00:05:22.000And he needs to bring up that he's only four years older than Trump, and Trump had his ghoul steal his medical records out of his internist office in January 2017.
00:05:35.000The lower propensity you are to vote, the more likely you are to support Donald Trump.
00:05:41.000So you look at poll after poll, and I will say this: this needs to be framed and it needs to be reiterated.
00:05:48.000Interactive polls, 2024, among those who voted in 2018, 2020, and 2022, let's get this up on screen.
00:05:57.000Among those that are the most reliable voters, Donald Trump loses by 11 points.
00:06:02.000Amongst those that voted once since 2018, Trump is up 12 points.
00:06:09.000Those who have not voted in the last three elections, like the gentleman and his wife who got registered to vote yesterday because of the conversation I had with them, up 18 points.
00:06:21.000These are people that are distrustful of government.
00:06:24.000These are people that are very informed, actually, about what is happening in the country, but voting either seems to be an unnecessary task, not something that they were raised to believe was a duty or an obligation.
00:06:41.000And Donald Trump crushes with this demographic.
00:06:45.000Now, going back to yesterday, there's been a lot of back and forth on whether or not it was a mistake for Trump to accept the debate with Biden, given all of Biden's conditions.
00:06:56.000But having the debates televised on network television are mini Super Bowls and can drive low propensity turnout.
00:07:06.000And the marching orders for all of us and for all of you are: can you find low propensity voters and get them on the voter rolls?
00:07:15.000So we have a website, by the way, at Turning Point Action.
00:07:42.000And I guarantee you a fraction or a sliver will say, Nah, or, well, I think I am, or I'm not sure.
00:07:50.000You then become a super voter registration machine because the symbol of the movement then attracts.
00:07:59.000You become a magnet for voter registration, and you can use that engagement into action.
00:08:05.000It is easy just to kind of sit around and complain about what's happening in the country, and they are destroying the country.
00:08:11.000But every one of us needs to use our agency.
00:08:16.000And this is exactly what we are doing with the Turning Point Action Army here in the beautiful state of Arizona, in the state of Wisconsin, in the state of Michigan, a little bit in the state of Pennsylvania.
00:08:26.000We're trying to ramp that up and in the state of Georgia, which is in this period, we're building the relationships, we're embedding ourselves into the communities.
00:08:34.000We are finding those low-propensity voters and getting them on the voting rolls.
00:08:41.000And I understand some people say, But Charlie, I don't know if my vote is completely secure.
00:09:09.000How do I with this defeatist attitude?
00:09:11.000Okay, first of all, Montana has more than one electoral vote.
00:09:15.000I believe it has four electoral votes.
00:09:17.000Number two, you have an unbelievably important senatorial race that can determine and dictate the entire direction of the U.S. Senate, which is defeating John Tuster and get Tim Sheehy elected, which is incredibly important.
00:09:29.000So that can push back against that defeatist attitude.
00:09:32.000So that person, Suzanne, who tells you, doesn't even know what they're talking about.
00:09:35.000But secondly, it does not even matter if you are in the deepest red Alabama.
00:09:41.000Voting takes five to seven minutes at most.
00:09:44.000We're not asking you to storm Normandy Beach.
00:09:47.000We're not asking you to scale El Capitan in Yosemite.
00:09:54.000We are asking you to fill out a document, sign it, and that's it.
00:10:03.000You don't have to do what we're doing at Turning Point Action, where we are going into the 107-degree heat all summer to knock on doors, to smile at new low-propensity voters and to try to get them on the voting rolls.
00:12:19.000Now, I know many of you in this audience were against what our leaders did during COVID, and you found it morally objectionable.
00:12:26.000And I have to say that because I'm going to dive into this into great detail.
00:12:31.000I've been warning for the last 10 years about a troubling trend in Washington, D.C., especially through our fiscal policies called generational theft.
00:12:41.000When I first started Turning Point USA, in the previous high school effort that I had before it with some great friends, the mantra was stop generational theft.
00:13:06.000Our argument was that the national debt is plundering and stealing the financial future and the security of a generation that does not yet have the right to vote.
00:13:23.000I would go around to tea party groups and I'd speak to a lot of organizations and they'd say, oh, yeah, you know, the debt's a big deal.
00:13:45.000The more difficult part of it to talk about was the morality, the morality or the lack thereof, or the immorality of a ruling class looking their grandkids in the eyes and saying, yeah, I don't love you that much.
00:14:01.000Now, that might sound cruel, but that is exactly what the ruling class in America have done over the last decade.
00:14:11.000We started with undisciplined fiscal spending.
00:14:16.000We paired that with adventurous, needless, no-win wars in the Middle East, Iraq, Afghanistan, widespread regime change that ended up being so destructive to the American homeland and not actually going after terrorists.
00:14:35.0002012, 2013, 2014, 2015, we borrowed, borrowed, borrowed, borrowed.
00:14:41.000Donald Trump was largely a response of the elders of society of people that were worried that we were not actually passing down a stable country to our children in 2016.
00:14:52.000But if we're honest, it's both political parties that have been plundering the next generation.
00:14:58.0002020 came, and we shouldn't be surprised that all of a sudden D.C. went to their default setting.
00:15:05.000The default setting of Washington, D.C. is do what is easy, do what is expedient, the kids be darned.
00:15:45.000But shouldn't the moral and the social contract have always been that senior citizens actually don't come first?
00:15:54.000Now, I know that's a thought crime to say, but isn't the social contract that the children should come first?
00:16:01.000And even saying that out loud was met with massive backlash.
00:16:05.000In fact, I'm going to probably get nasty emails right now for even mentioning that.
00:16:10.000That the social contract should have been: we don't want elderly people to unnecessarily die.
00:16:16.000However, shutting down schools because the kids might get infected, so then they might go see grandma.
00:16:24.000Anyone will tell you that children go on the rescue boats first in a society, that children are evacuated first when the house is on fire, that women and children are protected most in a theater of war.
00:16:43.000We went wrong in a multi-decade cascade of moral and political errors.
00:16:53.000And these moral and political errors, the moral especially, was we cannot disrupt me being the baby boomer ruling class.
00:17:04.000And I know many of you are not of this mentality, but it's just true, which I don't care about my grandkids.
00:17:13.000So we're going to hand them $35 trillion of debt, a nation full of foreigners, a multi-decade track record of no-win wars and hyperinflation.
00:17:27.000And again, many of you are totally against that.
00:17:29.000And so I'm not looping you into it, but it's what has occurred.
00:17:34.000And this generational theft is now hitting a fever pitch.
00:17:39.000You have a generation that will not inherit a better America than their parents.
00:17:46.000Their parents will have had a better country than they have, and they know it.
00:17:50.000One number in particular: house prices, housing prices since COVID are up 54%.
00:19:31.000You're probably never going to buy a house.
00:19:32.000Your degree is useless and left you in mountains of debt.
00:19:34.000You're nowhere near capable of providing for a wife and kids.
00:19:37.000And you can't imagine yourself settling down with any of the women in your age bracket anyway because Disney princess programming and feminism has left them fundamentally unwifable.
00:19:44.000Grown up in a culture which has celebrated every other form of identity besides you and in exact proportion to how much they're not you to the point that now schools and companies can hire based on that metric.
00:19:54.000All the while being told you can't complain or notice any of it because of how privileged you are.
00:19:57.000And if you don't know how privileged you are, it's because of your privilege.
00:20:00.000Even though you're basically a debt slave with minimal hope of a financial and familial future because your economy and culture has abandoned you.
00:20:06.000So a lot of dudes just checked out and started like smoking weed and playing video games.
00:20:09.000Some of the other ones went to countries where they like white people and men, like Thailand, I guess.
00:20:14.000And some of them were like, you know what, this is a good challenge.
00:20:26.000By the way, both parties are to blame for this, but Republicans at least are noticing this and have a plan and an agenda.
00:20:32.000And the agenda, Donald Trump's agenda, putting the country first, curtailing hyperinflation.
00:20:37.000I have made this advice publicly and privately to President Trump.
00:20:41.000In the debate and in his rallies, he needs to be very clear.
00:20:44.000And when he goes to college campuses this fall, which I hope we're going to host a couple campus events for either him or his vice president, future vice president, whoever it is, you know, we have a great campus infrastructure, hope to do it.
00:20:54.000The president Trump needs to say, forget the noise, forget the chatter.
00:20:58.000As president, I will make it easier to do three things: get married, have babies, own a home.
00:21:06.000If I'm president, those three things will be achievable for you.
00:21:11.000The three M's: mortgage, marriage, mating.
00:21:17.000If I am president, those three things will be in your grasp.
00:21:24.000That American dream will be accessible to you because it's not right now under the big government oligarchs of Joe Biden and his cronies.
00:21:32.000The amount of money that they're printing, the federal government spending, the national debt load, the foreign invasion happening on the southern border, the reckless foreign adventurous wars.
00:21:46.000And I'm going to get into this article from the Federalist, which is illuminating about how Democrats are increasingly concerned that these college campuses might end up working against them.
00:21:57.000And I just have to give credit where credit is due.
00:22:00.000The hard work that Turning Point USA and Turning Point Action have been engaged in over the last 11 years, the grind might come to a crescendo this November.
00:23:29.000This story is remarkable from the Federalist.
00:23:33.000And it is right on message for what we've been talking about.
00:23:37.000How the college student vote, how college student voters could blow up Democrats' ballot harvesting election ploy.
00:23:45.000There are two ways of legally winning elections, William Doyle writes.
00:23:49.000You can mobilize your current voting base and get them to the polls, or you could persuade voters who are not in the current voting base to go to the polls and vote for your candidate.
00:23:57.000It is no secret that Democrats have come to favor election strategies based on mobilization rather than persuasion over the last 10 years.
00:24:04.000Mass mail and balloting and ballot chasing and low propensity voting, micro-targeting is how they do it.
00:24:11.000They mobilize their base through a combination of ballot chasing, of micro-targeting, of issue selection.
00:24:20.000The Guiding Light of the Democrats Voter Mobilization Strategy is a very interesting book, which I encourage you guys to check out.
00:24:27.000Cass Sunstein and Sasha Eisenberg wrote this.
00:24:35.000There's another one that they wrote all about how they plan to win elections.
00:24:39.000It's called The Victory Lab, The Secret Science of Winning Campaigns.
00:24:43.000It is remarkable and it shows exactly how these Democrats employ these tactics.
00:24:48.000What if I told you all this money they've been pouring into voter mobilization on college campuses might actually be money that works against them?
00:24:59.000While the base is unstable, efforts to chase ballots or register voters using the nonpartisan 501 techniques expose Democrats to some intractable vulnerabilities.
00:25:09.000Over the last month, some Democrat strategists and donors have begun to acknowledge these vulnerabilities.
00:25:13.000In a recent blog on his website, Democrat adjacent journalist Nate Silver neatly summarized the Democrat problem.
00:25:19.000He says, quote, Democrats usually assume they win elections through turnout rather than persuasion.
00:25:23.000It's not a crazy proportion by any means, but it looks like a losing approach for 2024.
00:25:29.000But the widespread assumption among Democrats that they can just run back to their 2020 strategy or take a page from the Obama 2012 playbook appears to be flawed.
00:25:37.000There's still plenty of swing voters and they're swinging towards Trump.
00:25:44.000On college campuses, this is a group where they are used to winning plus 30 points.
00:25:52.000For example, Democrats will ultimately have to submit to a real-world statistical reality and give up the delusional saving our democracy or such magical thinking.
00:26:01.000The return on investment of ballot harvesting, a D plus 29 student demographic, which existed in 2020, is far higher than an ROI in a D plus five student demographic, which is more reflective of the reality that Democrats are likely to face this fall.
00:26:16.000In addition, students might go to RFK, young men are going to Trump.
00:26:20.000So Democrats very well might be harvesting the very communities that could help Trump.
00:26:26.000Democrats' mail and ballasting, ballot canvassing and harvesting machine will have to do with that, the $330 million from Mark Zuckerberg's Center for Technology and Civic Life.
00:26:36.000We'll be operating in a system where Republicans are more attuned than ever to the potential Democrat dirty tricks.
00:26:42.000Finally, William Doyle writes: Republicans who have been blackpilled into losing hope of winning future elections by Democrats almost miraculously, almost miraculous ability to win through use of mail and ballots may be in for an unexpected surprise this fall.
00:26:58.000The plumbing of Democrat elections is good, but their policies are so bad that the plumbing might actually work against them.
00:27:06.000That the infrastructure that they have built in communities that they have largely dominated, these might be more swing communities like Tempe, Arizona, Tucson, Arizona, Flagstaff, Arizona, Madison, Wisconsin, Columbus, Ohio, Tallahassee, Florida, Gainesville, Florida, college towns.
00:27:26.000Where they used to win by 30 points, they might win by six points.
00:28:01.000And the invasion on the border, is it accelerating or is it managed?
00:28:06.000And the invasion is being co-sponsored by the current regime.
00:28:10.000And I'm going to close with how I started this hour.
00:28:13.000Every single one of us have the agency to make a difference, especially in these battleground states and the Senate swing states like Ohio and Montana.
00:28:22.000You find one low-propensity voter today and do that every day from now to the election, you can make a disproportionate impact to save the Republic.
