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.
00:03:33.000Alvin Bragg and Jack Smith were at least smart enough to say, yeah, we probably don't need the mugshot.
00:03:38.000Now, understand that the idea of a mugshot is so that we know who the criminal is, so that if they go out on bail, that you can go find that person.
00:05:57.000This is now, without a doubt, one of the most famous images in the history of American politics.
00:06:07.000One of the things that the left does not understand, we famously say the left can't meme because they don't understand aesthetics or memetics.
00:07:21.000If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you can possibly imagine.
00:07:29.000If you strike me down, I will become more powerful than you could possibly imagine.
00:07:34.000So much of our configuration politically comes from our orientation of stories, symbols, and icons.
00:07:45.000And now the icon, the below-the-surface story that's happening here is that the Democrats are the nerdy hall monitors That are going around and stopping anybody from either having fun or being normal.
00:12:20.000This is affirmative action Joy Reed talking about how she's so glad that there were mugshots, but she insinuates here that what this really is is about hatred of white people.
00:12:34.000She implies here, she doesn't say it outwardly, but she implies through little crumbs here or there that she's excited because Donald Trump was the figure of white America that she hates.
00:12:48.000At the base of some of the BLM energy, and maybe Big Fannie Willis, and maybe Joy and definitely Joy Reed is pathological anti-white hatred.
00:13:12.000This case, and I think Fonnie Willis is a hero.
00:13:15.000She is a national hero because she, more than any prosecutor in this country, and I respect Jack Smith and I respect all the prosecutors that are doing this, she's the only one who said these wealthy, powerful, privileged men and women are just American citizens.
00:13:34.000There is another part of the clip that where she says, when growing up, these were, I hated Donald Trump because he was the wealthy white guy.
00:15:36.000It makes you wonder that how pathological, at least Fannie Willis, I don't know about Jack Smith has his own stuff, but Fannie Willis and Joy Reed, how much anti-white sentiments are playing into this.
00:15:49.000It makes you wonder because she's saying it out loud.
00:15:54.000If you listen to my podcast for some time, you've heard me talk about these digestive enzymes called Mass Zymes from Buy Optimizers.
00:16:00.000Mass Zymes are 100% plant-based, naturally derived enzymes that digest proteins, starches, sugars, fibers, and fats.
00:16:09.000And these have been a life changer for my digestion.
00:16:12.000For those who have never tried Mass Symes, it is your chance, so listen up.
00:16:16.000You can score 10% on your discount on either 120 or 250 caps bottles of Mass Zymes.
00:17:45.000And so, Don, what is remarkable to me, and I know our audience agrees, is how your father and you and the whole family, you guys do not give up.
00:17:56.000And it seems as if the resolve is only strengthening.
00:17:59.000You know, Don, you joke around the story when you went down the elevator before your father went down the escalator.
00:18:05.000He turned to you and he said, we're going to find out who our true friends are.
00:18:11.000And you guys are not showing any signs of breaking or surrender, regardless of them throwing everything they possibly can at you and your family.
00:18:20.000And more importantly, he was right with that one.
00:18:22.000I mean, we did find out who the real friends were.
00:18:25.000A lot of surprises in there, but the reality is the people who have been the true friends are actually the real American patriots because they understand that if they can do this to Trump, they can do it to anyone.
00:18:36.000Someone who has a huge platform, an incredible following, billions of dollars, if they can do it to that guy, who can't they do it to?
00:18:44.000But more importantly, if they can and will do it to that guy, who won't they do it to?
00:18:48.000You know, there was that meme a couple of months ago, you know, in reality, they're after you.
00:18:52.000I'm just in the way as it relates to Donald Trump.
00:18:55.000And I think people are starting to finally get that.
00:18:58.000They're starting to finally understand it.
00:19:00.000It's why with each indictment, you know, when people get indicted, they don't go up in the polls.
00:19:04.000But when it's so ridiculous, when it's so over the top, when the other side has overplayed their hands so badly, everyone's waking up to it, even those that have been sort of politically agnostic and sitting on the sidelines.
00:19:16.000So, you know, we have a country to fix, and there's only one guy that's going to actually do that.
00:19:21.000So talk also, Don, about what happened at the Milwaukee debate.
00:19:57.000I was well enough known that even those with the directive were like, all right, we're not going to stop him.
00:20:01.000So I walked, I got in far enough into the room that a couple of people noticed, started doing that.
00:20:05.000I did sort of my own press gaggle off to the side, but wasn't allowed on the cameras or anything.
00:20:10.000And it shows you what's going on even in mainstream media.
00:20:13.000Fox wants a puppet that they can instill in there.
00:20:15.000It's why they've been sort of fluffing Ron DeSantis for the last two years, but they realized, I think, based on, frankly, based on the performance the other night at the bay, which was a disaster for him, he really needed a breakout.
00:20:27.000He likes to usurp and steal my father's line about a nation in decline because he's incapable of coming up with his own original thoughts.
00:20:33.000But the reality is his is a campaign in decline.
00:20:40.000And the only times he actually got applause was when he basically stole Trump campaign ideas, whether it's a nation in decline, whether it's using the military to fight the cartels.
00:20:48.000I mean, this is like web meet, you know, front page for the last two years.
00:20:53.000And, you know, he's coming up with it like it's a novel concept.
00:21:23.000And as someone who spent weeks on the campaign trail trying to help him get elected in 18 with him, as I told someone a long time ago, I go, don't worry, just wait.
00:21:33.000To get to know Ron DeSantis is to not like him.
00:21:44.000Not one person actually going to prosecute the case against Joe Biden to the American people, which seems like a big deal when you're running a presidential election, Charlie.
00:21:55.000First, Don, I don't want to tell this story if you don't want to, but I remember once you were doing an event at Trump Doral, and you went like five minutes over, and Governor DeSantis was the next speaker, and he just left.
00:23:03.000There's a lot of huge talks, and you can cover that up again with influencers for six months, but eventually you have to be the guy on the stage.
00:23:11.000He was the guy on the stage the other night.
00:23:13.000The problem is that wasn't the performance he wanted, and it certainly wasn't the performance he needed.
00:24:12.000And that may not necessarily be one of them, but we can't give up the ground.
00:24:18.000We can't bend the knee and just say, well, I'm just not going to play on those platforms.
00:24:21.000They have millions and in many cases, hundreds of millions of people on those places, even if I'm censored, even if I'm shut down, even if I have to work 10x harder to get basic, the basic reach of an account with small followings.
00:24:32.000You know, I think sometimes we actually still have to play in those battlefields and we can't just seed that ground.
00:24:52.000And if there was nothing else, that debate shows that they're not ready for the big leads, not ready for prime time.
00:24:58.000Don, wouldn't it be smarter to invest that money in ballot chasing, in early voting in Arizona, Wisconsin, Georgia?
00:25:06.000Governor DeSantis has not run a good campaign, but he would gain a lot of respect in me if he dropped out and spent his $110 million to help get Donald J. Trump elected and defeat the administrative system.
00:25:17.000Listen, the move that he should have made, and this is the, you know, yesterday he's getting his photograph taken at the Field of Dreams with a stock.
00:25:36.000And he'd be a shoe-in, you know, if you could at least develop personality with a little bit more experience, but that's not what happened.
00:25:42.000Instead, the consultants who knew they were never going to get hired by the Trump campaign said, you know, Jeff Rowe, I'm going to raise all this money for you.
00:25:50.000And they did, but they'd also taken, what is it, 83% of all the dollars running through their entities?
00:25:54.000You know, the guy will make $30 to $50 million this year.
00:25:57.000He's happy because he doesn't actually have an ideology.
00:26:04.000But they're not ever going to even tell DeSantis it's time to wrap it up or the smart thing to do for his political future because it's actually a huge, huge drift.
00:26:14.000And that's, again, what Ron probably doesn't understand about all of this.
00:26:18.000There's all this money involved that they're telling him, oh, no, you got a chance.
00:26:21.000Like, let's hope that one of the indictment goes through.
00:26:24.000He had the easiest lockup for 2028 if he wanted to.
00:26:27.000And he just perhaps honed his skills over four years.
00:26:30.000I'm pretty new to politics, relatively speaking.
00:26:32.000So certainly to these people who are running for president and have done it for years, it's not that hard, but you have to be real.
00:27:08.000Well, listen, you know, obviously the donations help, but DonaldJTrump.com, people sometimes don't like going through WinRED if they're concerned about, it's not usually a small dollar sort of type of donation place, but you can go to MAGAINC.com.
00:29:33.000And they try to solve their mental issues by harming conservatives.
00:29:39.000There's a lot of sadistic tendencies here.
00:29:42.000So, this guy, who's a real sicko, Jahan Jones, says Trump's inner circle wants the world to think having his mugshot taken as a win for him, defying logic and just about everything we know about the man.
00:29:56.000You see, this guy is not overly bright.
00:29:58.000He doesn't understand the images of mugshots, the images of the symbol resonate fundamentally with the American people, understand the power of symbols and icons.
00:30:50.000So when you look at certain people, certain situations, when you think of the civil rights era, do you think of an op-ed?
00:30:59.000Or do you think about Martin Luther King and the massive crowds in front of the Washington Monument?
00:31:06.000When you think of World War II, do you think of some story you read?
00:31:09.000Or do you think of this flag over Iwo Jima?
00:31:12.000When you think of the Kennedy assassination, do you think of just reading some newspaper article or do you think of the Zapruder film of him in a convertible?
00:32:54.000They underestimate the power of the visual.
00:32:58.000These are overly educated academics that think everything is just in academic papers and in journals.
00:33:06.000When in reality, the vast majority of people communicate through visuals far more effectively and a deeper, more fundamental level than just some longly worded New York Times op-ed about eliminating elections.
00:33:17.000That they're smarter than us, so they don't understand they're smarter than us.
00:33:21.000They're like, oh, who could actually be galvanized by an image?
00:33:25.000Dare I say did they make mugshots great again?
