00:00:04.000 I recap my meeting that I had last week in Palm Beach while I was out of the chair.

00:00:08.000 A very impressive meeting with Trump campaign and RNC leadership.

00:00:12.000 We go through the latest analysis of the 2024 race, some really positive and good news to share with all of you.

00:00:19.000 And what if I told you that the head of the Economic Advisory Council doesn't know anything about economics?

00:02:57.000 Register now at tpaction.com/slash peoples.

00:03:06.000 I was out on Friday.

00:03:07.000 Thank you for the team for filling in.

00:03:09.000 By the way, we're doing very well on the podcast charts.

00:03:11.000 I'm told that we're number four in Apple News and the number one conservative podcast out there right now.

00:03:16.000 So we'll talk more about that later in the hour.

00:03:18.000 Again, every time I take time off, we surge in the podcast charts.

00:03:22.000 It's really terrific.

00:03:24.000 Friday, I tweeted out, had an impressive meeting today with the Trump campaign team and the new RNC leadership.

00:03:32.000 Due to new FEC guidance, campaigns can now work much more closely with outside groups like Turning Point Action on canvassing and door knocking.

00:03:41.000 12 groups were present as we shared ideas on how to win in November.

00:03:46.000 The attention to detail, no BS attitude, and sophistication was striking.

00:03:52.000 As someone who has been a skeptic of the RNC in the past, I'm very encouraged by what is happening.

00:03:58.000 It's time to build the biggest grassroots army in history.

00:04:01.000 We're up against the oligarchs and an entire regime.

00:04:04.000 We must win.

00:04:07.000 Axios.com reports 6% of Americans in these states will decide who wins.

00:04:14.000 94% of people have already made up their mind.

00:04:17.000 It is a turnout game.

00:04:18.000 It is a micro-targeted persuasion game.

00:04:22.000 Roughly 244 million Americans will be eligible to vote, but 99.5% will not be deciders.

00:04:32.000 They won't vote or will always vote the same way.

00:04:34.000 Or we live in states virtually certain to be red or blue.

00:04:39.000 Both campaigns are now obsessed with six states.

00:04:42.000 Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin.

00:04:45.000 If I might take a pause, have we not been the leading voice on this for now nearly a year and a half?

00:04:53.000 Since January of 2023, we've been telling people, hey, it's going to come down to a collection of six states.

00:04:59.000 It's going to come down to really three states, Georgia, Arizona, Wisconsin, Georgia, Arizona, Wisconsin.

00:05:04.000 The Democrats knew this the entire time, which is why they indicted Donald Trump, which is why they've done everything they can to try to take Trump out of the ball game.

00:05:14.000 It's going to come down to who can register the most amount of voters, who can chase those ballots, who can maximize voting month, which is coming up not too far away.

00:05:25.000 It's only like 130, 140 days till ballots come out.

00:05:31.000 An April poll of swing states by Bloomberg and Morning Consult found Joe Biden ahead in Michigan, with Trump ahead or statistically tied in every other swing state.

00:05:40.000 In private conversations, Democrats are a lot more worried about November than Republicans are.

00:05:48.000 This is the buried lead in Axios, everybody.

00:05:50.000 There's so much negativity out there.

00:05:53.000 Mike Johnson has basically handed over the gavel to Hakeem Jeffries.

00:05:57.000 We're borrowing a trillion dollars every 100 days.

00:06:01.000 The border is wide open, but, but, but.

00:06:04.000 However, axios.com, and this ties into my meeting on Friday with the Trump campaign.

00:06:11.000 In private conversations, Democrats are a lot more worried about November than Republicans are.

00:06:17.000 Now, I don't know if that's a good thing.

00:06:19.000 Republicans, we should constantly be worried.

00:06:21.000 I'm very worried.

00:06:22.000 I still give Joe Biden the slight advantage because he controls the election infrastructure apparatus.

00:06:29.000 He has billions of dollars that he's going to raise, mobilizing the federal government, 600 federal agencies that he's going to mobilize.

00:06:37.000 Democrats say the race is winnable.

00:06:40.000 Republicans think they're winning.

00:06:41.000 Okay, I got to take pause here.

00:06:44.000 I did not get that impression from meeting with the Trump campaign or the RNC leadership.

00:06:49.000 They're playing like they're three points down, focused, gritty, hustle.

00:06:54.000 However, this makes sense.

00:06:55.000 Republicans that would talk to Axios, I totally believe Republicans tend to be some of the cockier people in politics.

00:07:03.000 As I commonly tell the story on election night in 2020, I was at the White House and they were popping champagne when the early returns were coming in, thinking Donald Trump had already won the presidency.

00:07:14.000 They thought it was over.

00:07:15.000 We need to stay humble.

00:07:17.000 We need to act as if we are three or four points down, regardless of what the polls tell us.

00:07:24.000 Now, with third-party candidates introduced, Donald Trump does better.

00:07:29.000 We need people who only see the election as over when Donald Trump is taking the oath again.

00:07:35.000 Let me say that again.

00:07:36.000 It's not over in April.

00:07:37.000 It's not over in July.

00:07:38.000 It's not even going to be over when they call Donald Trump the winner.

00:07:41.000 It is over when he says, so help me, God.

00:07:46.000 Boom.

00:07:46.000 That is the final whistle.

00:07:48.000 It's not going to be over until not even when the Electoral College meets.

00:07:51.000 They're going to try to interrupt it with the meeting of Congress in early January.

00:07:57.000 This is a four-quarter game.

00:07:58.000 You are still in the first quarter.

00:08:00.000 The second quarter will happen over the summer.

00:08:02.000 The third quarter is actually the election.

00:08:04.000 The fourth quarter is when the Electoral College meets.

00:08:08.000 It is not over until he says, so help me, God.

00:08:15.000 All 15 rounds of this fight is going to matter.

00:08:17.000 It is a long, drawn-out fight.

00:08:21.000 But it's interesting that Democrats are worried, and they should be worried.

00:08:24.000 They're experiencing major headwinds.

00:08:28.000 They have a deeply unpopular candidate.

00:08:31.000 Axios continues.

00:08:32.000 The Trump campaign is talking to that 6% of persuadable voters when it hammers immigration, crime, and inflation.

00:08:40.000 No surprise here.

00:08:42.000 Biden is aiming at the 6% when he emphasizes abortion, democracy, and stability.

00:08:47.000 Now, let me pause here.

00:08:48.000 Joe Biden's going to run on stability.

00:08:50.000 He might have been able to do that in 2020 because the country was overwhelmed by Floyd Palooza, by COVID, masks, vaccines.

00:09:02.000 However, Joe Biden as the stability candidate, this is something where Donald Trump can really exploit Joe Biden.

00:09:09.000 Donald Trump's four years, despite the media impression, were far more stable than what we've lived through.

00:09:14.000 Lived through Afghanistan, Israel, Hamas, Russia, Ukraine, the southern border, rising crime.

00:09:22.000 Again, Axios is just repurposing what we have said for quite some time, but it's helpful and it's confirmation.

00:09:29.000 By the numbers, Biden's winning margin in the six states just total over 300,000 votes of the 158 million votes cast, and it was even more than that.

00:09:40.000 Washington Post found that the winner would have changed by flipping just over 81,000 votes in four states.

00:09:45.000 It's even less than that.

00:09:47.000 It's really 41,000 votes.

00:09:49.000 Biden Insider used the term 6% of six states formulation as a proxy of how to narrow a group of voters who are considered truly in play.

00:09:59.000 Swing state voters and swing states.

00:10:01.000 However, this is not totally right.

00:10:03.000 If you're able to increase the voting population and increase turnout with Trump voters, you make up with the persuadable audience.

00:10:11.000 Senior advisor to President Clinton and widely followed election oracle says, quote, education now transcends race as the best predictor of voting.

00:10:21.000 People are increasingly choosing to liver on others who share their values and beliefs, which has led to homogenization of how communities vote.

00:10:30.000 This is very important.

00:10:31.000 The more college educated you are, the more likely you are to support Joe Biden.

00:10:37.000 The more degrees you have, the more support you are of what Joe Biden is doing to this country.

00:10:43.000 The more time you have spent on a university campus, the more you think that Joe Biden is crushing it because you've been indoctrinated longer and also you are attached to the expert class.

00:10:54.000 When the experts say something, you believe it.

00:10:57.000 When someone has a nice flashy title, you say, oh, well, they must be right.

00:11:02.000 It is going to come down to who has the better ground operation.

00:11:07.000 That is why at Turning Point Action, we are hiring hundreds and hundreds of ballot chasers for low propensity voters to chase the low propensity voters.

00:11:18.000 It is about finding the low propensity voters and making sure they're registered to vote.

00:11:22.000 And on top of that, losing by less in the key communities like college campuses.

00:11:30.000 A poll this weekend shows that Donald Trump is winning the under 30 vote by five points.

00:11:36.000 Let me say that again.

00:11:37.000 That Donald Trump is winning the under 30 vote by five points.

00:11:42.000 The work that Turning Point is doing is paying off.

00:11:45.000 In fact, Donald Trump is doing the worst relative to previous years with who? 0.99

00:11:50.000 Baby boomer voters. 0.93

00:11:51.000 Baby boomer voters have moved the most in the direction of Joe Biden, three or four points, not huge, but enough.

00:11:58.000 And younger voters have moved 30 points.

00:12:01.000 It's rather interesting.

00:12:02.000 And by the way, that is poll after poll after poll.

00:12:05.000 And we see that on the ground.

00:12:06.000 When I talk to a baby boomer, they're much more sympathetic typically to Joe Biden and the stability they say he offers.

00:12:12.000 Young people are fired up.

00:12:14.000 They don't own anything. 1.00

00:12:15.000 They're poorer than ever before.

00:12:19.000 Debt, it keeps you tossing and turning at night.

00:12:21.000 You can't get away from it.

00:12:22.000 But the truth is, the system is designed to trap you in debt.

00:12:26.000 Insanely high interest rate credit cards and loans make it nearly impossible to pay off your debt.

00:12:30.000 There's a new way out of the debt trap, pivotal debt solutions.

00:12:34.000 Pivotal debt solutions isn't like the old school debt relief companies that string your debt out for years.

00:12:40.000 They have new aggressive strategies that can end your debt faster and easier than you thought possible.

00:12:45.000 With pivotal debt solutions, you can cut or even eliminate interest, find programs to write off your balances so you owe less, stop these threatening phone calls, and without bankruptcy and without a loan.

00:12:55.000 Bottom line is they find every solution possible to end your debt permanently.

00:13:08.000 That is zapmydebt.com, zapmydebt.com.

00:13:14.000 So the more time you spend on a college campus, the more degrees you have, the more trusting you are of flashy titles.

00:13:24.000 When you hear a title, you say, ooh, he must be very smart.

00:13:27.000 He must know what he's talking about.

00:13:29.000 You see, this is what Plato talked about as the philosopher kings.

00:13:33.000 Angelo Cotavia called it the ruling class.

00:13:36.000 That there's a small group of people that are supposed to manage society for you.

00:13:44.000 There's a great book by James Burnham called The Managerial Revolution.

00:13:50.000 I think it was James Burnham.

00:13:52.000 Where there's a collection of experts.

00:13:54.000 Cass Sunstein wrote a similar book on the Obama era.

00:13:59.000 It's not, this is where the whole, this is the philosophical basis of the bureaucracy, by the way.

00:14:06.000 The fourth branch of government, the administrative state, derives its power and its justification for that.

00:14:13.000 The smart people must be in charge.

00:14:15.000 Think about during COVID.

00:14:18.000 During the lockdowns, we yielded our power to experts.

00:14:22.000 Now, anytime you read a newspaper article, you read something online that says, experts say you should immediately dismiss or at the very least question what is coming next.

00:14:35.000 Experts say, experts say, experts have done more damage to this country than the working class ever could imagine.

00:14:45.000 Dr. Fauci should be in gitmo for what he did.

00:14:49.000 The experts shut down our schools.

00:14:52.000 The experts masked our kids.

00:14:54.000 The experts had lunatics driving alone in their cars, masked and afraid that the radio was going to emit COVID.

00:15:04.000 We have become so trusting of experts. 0.98

00:15:08.000 And thanks to social media and thanks to Elon Musk opening up X so that we can see who they really are, we realize that the people who are in charge of our society that have been given all of this power, who were never been elected, they've never run for office, they've never had to answer tough questions, not only are they morons, they're not wise, but they're incredibly confident. 0.95

00:15:34.000 I get asked all the time, I say, Charlie, why do you go to college campuses and talk to these kids? 0.91

00:15:38.000 Outside of the obvious answer that they're for the future of the country and their voters, I say that many of these students on campus, believe it or not, are actually smarter than the people running society.

00:15:49.000 Even though you see some of these videos, like, oh my goodness, I can't believe college kids are so off base.

00:15:54.000 If I told you that you had an opportunity to ask a question to the 31st chair of the Council for Economic Advisors, you would think that you're talking to someone who knows something about economics.

00:16:11.000 Let me introduce you to a guy by the name of Jared Bernstein.

00:16:16.000 Jared Bernstein has literally taught.

00:16:21.000 He's a professor.

00:16:22.000 He didn't just go.

00:16:23.000 He has taught at Columbia.

00:16:26.000 He has taught at NYU.

00:16:29.000 His areas of expertise include federal, state, and international economic policies, income inequality, and mobility.

00:16:37.000 He is the chair of the Council for Economic Advisors.

00:16:41.000 This guy's supposed to be considered a smart person.

00:16:45.000 No, like the smartest of all people.

00:16:47.000 I saw this video and I thought it was artificial intelligence.

00:16:51.000 I said, there's no way it's real.

00:16:53.000 I want to play the entire clip.

00:16:54.000 This is Jared Bernstein, who cannot explain economic truth that a seventh grader would be able to explain.

00:17:03.000 Play cut 22.

00:17:05.000 Government can't go bankrupt because we can print our own money.

00:17:09.000 It obviously begs the question, why exactly are we borrowing in a currency that we print ourselves?

00:17:14.000 I'm waiting for someone to stand up and say, why do we borrow our own currency in the first place?

00:17:21.000 The government definitely prints money and then it lends that money by selling bonds.

00:17:27.000 Is that what they do?

00:17:32.000 Yeah, they sell bonds.

00:17:36.000 Yeah, they sell bonds, right?

00:17:37.000 Because they sell bonds and people buy the bonds and lend them the money.

00:17:40.000 Yeah, so a lot of times, a lot of times, at least to my ear, with MMT, the language and the concepts can be kind of unnecessarily confusing, but there is no question that the government prints money and then it uses that money to so yeah, I guess I'm just, I don't, I can't really talk, I don't, I don't get it.

00:18:05.000 I don't know what they're talking about, like, because it's like the government clearly prints money.

00:18:11.000 It does it all the time, and it clearly borrows.

00:18:14.000 Otherwise, we wouldn't be having this debt and deficit conversation.

00:18:17.000 So I don't think there's anything confusing there.

00:18:20.000 He couldn't put two sentences together.

00:18:22.000 He's the chair of the federal government Council of Economic Advisors, the chair.

00:18:27.000 He's a professor from NYU.

00:18:31.000 A professor who teaches kids at Columbia.

00:18:33.000 And he can't string two sentences together about how, yes, hey, Jared Bernstein, I didn't go to college.

00:18:38.000 I'm a high school graduate.

00:18:40.000 You sell bonds, and someone needs to buy those bonds.

00:18:46.000 Folks, so many people I know are disheartened that our country seems to have forgotten the importance of citizenship and they wonder how a strong sense of citizenship might be revived.

00:18:55.000 That's why my friends at Hillsdale College have produced a free online course on this topic, American Citizenship and Its Decline.

00:19:02.000 Taught by historian Victor Davis Hansen, the course traces the history of citizenship and explains how it is undermined in America today by open borders, by identity politics, by the administrative state, and by globalization.

00:19:15.000 Americans taking the course will gain a deeper insight about the connection between citizenship and freedom, an insight they can share with their family members, friends, and neighbors.

00:19:24.000 Hillsdale's free online courses are an important component of Hillsdale's mission to reach and teach increasing millions of people on behalf of liberty and the American way of life.

00:19:34.000 So sign up today for Hillsdale's free online course, American Citizenship and Its Decline, by visiting charlieforhillsdale.com.

00:19:50.000 I mean, I'm a high school, I'm a mean, mere high school graduate.

00:19:54.000 I could tell you how it works.

00:19:55.000 It's very simple.

00:19:56.000 The federal government borrows money by selling market securities such as treasury bonds, bills, notes, T-bills.

00:20:03.000 Not hard.

00:20:05.000 But for the professor who is in charge of your government and your economic future, he has no idea what he's talking about.

00:20:11.000 No idea what he's talking about.

00:20:14.000 These are the people that are in charge.

00:20:16.000 Jared Bernstein, who is the chair of the economic advisors, cannot explain to you how we finance our debt.

00:20:26.000 So when you vote for Joe Biden, and some people vote for Joe Biden, because they feel as if there is this expert class that will keep them comfy.

00:20:35.000 Oh, the government tells me that the shot is perfectly safe and effective, that the economy is wonderful and inflation is on the way down.

00:20:44.000 By the way, it's not on the way down.

00:20:45.000 It's actually hotter than they expected.

00:20:48.000 You see, the yielding to the experts is the deterioration of the sovereign citizen.

00:20:54.000 You're no longer thinking for yourself.

00:20:57.000 Being a sovereign citizen means I might buy silver and gold.

00:21:01.000 I might not take the shot.

00:21:03.000 I'm not going to just feed my kid high fructose corn syrup.

00:21:08.000 I'm not going to listen to the government when it says that the people who give birth are not women, but birthing people.

00:21:17.000 These are the experts that tell you that the debt doesn't matter. 0.84

00:21:21.000 And it would be one thing if Jared Bernstein was able to walk into a nice sounding explanation of modern monetary theory, which is just basically, it's basically queer theory for economics.

00:21:33.000 It makes no sense. 0.98

00:21:34.000 It makes certain people feel good and it's total BS. 1.00

00:21:37.000 Modern monetary theory is queer theory for economics. 1.00

00:21:40.000 You can quote me on that. 0.68

00:21:42.000 But Jared Bernstein is not even able to articulate how the government issues T-bills.

00:21:50.000 Here is his resume.

00:21:53.000 You see, he's a college graduate.

00:21:55.000 And as you well know, going to college is the most important thing in the society, isn't it?

00:22:00.000 He grew up in a musical family.

00:22:02.000 He got a bachelor's degree in music from the Manhattan School of Music, where he studied double bass.

00:22:09.000 Bass, I'm sorry, double bass, not bass.

00:22:12.000 You see, in music, it's bass.

00:22:14.000 In phishing, it's bass.

00:22:15.000 Double bass.

00:22:17.000 Throughout the 80s, he was a mainstay on the jazz scene in New York City.

00:22:21.000 He earned a Master of Social Work from Hunter College, and then as well as a DSW in social welfare.

00:22:29.000 At Columbia, he got his dissertation.

00:22:32.000 So he has a PhD.

00:22:35.000 He has a PhD who is the chair of the Council of Economic Advisors.

00:22:44.000 When you hear experts, you should say, I don't trust what you're saying.

00:22:50.000 This is why Joe Biden's support with black voters, Hispanics, and young people under 30 are tanking.

00:22:57.000 You might say, wait a second.

00:22:59.000 And I know this might trigger some folks in the audience, and it's not targeted at you.

00:23:03.000 It's targeted at your generation.

00:23:05.000 So it's a big difference.

00:23:06.000 But it's the facts, it's the data.

00:23:08.000 It's over multiple polling disciplines.

00:23:11.000 Let's just think for a second.

00:23:12.000 If Donald Trump does better with blacks, Hispanics, younger voters, and wins younger voters, how is this race even close? 0.70

00:23:22.000 Answer. 0.89

00:23:22.000 Donald Trump is doing worse with baby boomers. 0.89

00:23:26.000 Play cut 23.

00:23:28.000 And Biden seems to be struggling with key demographic groups that he would need to win and win big if he stands a chance of being reelected.

00:23:36.000 John, there is significant softness in the support for Joe Biden among core Democrats.

00:23:41.000 In this poll, he's carrying black voters by 61 points.

00:23:44.000 Well, that sounds like a lot, but he carried them by 84 points back in 2020.

00:23:48.000 Latino voters, a very slight Biden edge in this poll, but it was a 21-point advantage in the exit polls back in 2020.

00:23:54.000 And among younger voters under 30, we're actually seeing Trump with a slight edge.

00:23:58.000 That was a big win for Biden last time around.

00:24:01.000 It's particularly stark to see that difference among voters of color.

00:24:05.000 Black voters under age 50, far less likely in this poll to say they're supporting Joe Biden than older black voters.

00:24:11.000 Dare I say that younger voters are seeing a turning point?

00:24:15.000 Hopefully.

00:24:16.000 We don't want to celebrate too soon, but there's something happening.

00:24:20.000 By the way, when we go on campus tomorrow at University of Washington in Seattle, it's going to be, we already have, so we have a room for 1,700 people, and we have 3,800 tickets sold.

00:24:32.000 So I don't know how that one's going to work out.

00:24:34.000 Get there early, I guess.

00:24:35.000 Can't find rooms big enough to fit all the students that want to fit it that come in. 0.97

00:24:38.000 Meanwhile, you got these protesters with a bunch of, you know, you at Tent City, the ugliest, laziest people that society has to offer. 0.93

00:24:47.000 I don't mean ugly even from an aesthetic standpoint. 0.97

00:24:49.000 I want to be very clear.

00:24:51.000 I mean, because you can't control your looks, and you should never make fun of how somebody looks.

00:24:55.000 I mean ugly from how they present themselves to society.

00:24:58.000 I mean the choices of how they dress.

00:25:02.000 I think that's very important because some people say, oh, Charlie, you shouldn't call people ugly.

00:25:05.000 No, I agree in the sense of how God made you.

00:25:09.000 I'm talking about when you double nose pierce your nose, pierce your nose, you got tattoos all over the place, you haven't showered in three weeks, and you got purple hair. 0.99

00:25:18.000 You're ugly. 0.99

00:25:20.000 You might have won. 1.00

00:25:22.000 If you go into different decisions, you could look very beautiful. 0.98

00:25:25.000 But you decide to look ugly.

00:25:27.000 Ugliness is a choice.

00:25:30.000 The polling is showing, and not just that, the predictive markets are really closing, that this thing is up for grabs.

00:25:43.000 And it really is going to be, as Andrew put in the previous episode with Josh Hammer, the country class versus the ruling class.

00:25:54.000 And the country class is growing, is expanding.

00:26:00.000 Blacks, Hispanics, younger voters.

00:26:03.000 So who is actually supporting the Democrat coalition?

00:26:06.000 They have more support than ever from college-educated women. 0.59

00:26:11.000 College-educated women have an attachment to the Democrat Party like Catholics have to the Eucharist.

00:26:18.000 It's just right there. 0.84

00:26:20.000 It's just, they believe in it.

00:26:22.000 They see salvation in it.

00:26:24.000 College-educated women are one of the most difficult demographics for Republicans to break. 1.00

00:26:30.000 They consume NPR, New York Times. 0.56

00:26:33.000 Many of them think it's great that their kids are getting trans. 1.00

00:26:37.000 This is, I mean, the downfall of Colorado can be best described as the college-educated female demographic. 1.00

00:26:47.000 So we're going to have to navigate that. 0.75

00:26:48.000 And then older voters, they seem to not really be enthusiastic for Donald Trump.

00:26:55.000 I think we can change that.

00:26:56.000 I think some of the polling is underestimating some of the turnout scenarios.

00:27:01.000 But we must understand, though, that if you support Joe Biden and you're 75 years old, which there's plenty of people that do, they have gotten richer in the last couple of years.

00:27:13.000 They have seen their stock portfolio go up.

00:27:16.000 They say, oh, Donald Trump is a little rough around the edges.

00:27:19.000 Whereas a 24-year-old who borrowed a bunch of money to go to college and has nothing to show for it, does not believe they'll be able to own a home, does not believe they'll be able to get married or have children.

00:27:32.000 They are priced out of the American dream.

00:27:37.000 And Donald Trump speaks to them in a way where he says, we're going to revitalize what you are missing.

00:27:43.000 Joe Biden wants you to own nothing.

00:27:45.000 And I think this is a very important message that we must hammer.

00:27:49.000 Joe Biden is against the middle class owning property.

00:27:56.000 And whether it's intentional or not, you have people like Jared Bernstein who can't even tell you what these policies are doing or how these policies actually work.

00:28:05.000 He believes that the government cannot go bankrupt because we issue our own debt.

00:28:12.000 That is against the laws of nature and nature's God.

00:28:16.000 You are declaring war on the laws of economics.

00:28:19.000 And yes, there are the laws of physics, the laws of thermodynamics, and the laws of economics.

00:28:25.000 And you are declaring war on such laws.

00:28:30.000 The Axios articles continue by saying the bottom line, as if this is breaking news for this program.

00:28:36.000 Those of you that listen intently, you know how focused we are on the states, counties, precincts.

00:28:41.000 And that's exactly where we're deploying our turning point action ballot chasers.

00:28:47.000 Trump needs to pick off one of the Midwestern blue wall states he lost in 2020, Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania.

00:28:55.000 Under current electoral vote rules in Nebraska and Maine, and we have our eyes on Nebraska, don't worry.

00:29:01.000 Nebraska is very key.

00:29:02.000 By the way, whole new series of Nebraska stories this weekend on how Nebraska is looking to change their electoral vote.

00:29:12.000 I feel very good about Nebraska.

00:29:14.000 That's all I'm going to say.

00:29:15.000 I feel very good.

00:29:16.000 And if I stop feeling good, then we'll just turn up the temperature a little bit.

00:29:20.000 You know, we'll just kind of turn up the temperature.

00:29:22.000 I feel very good about Nebraska.

00:29:24.000 That's all I'm going to say.

00:29:25.000 I feel very good about Nebraska doing the special session and the governor rallying and delivering the victory like he said he would.

00:29:31.000 I feel good about it.

00:29:33.000 Many strategists in both parties believe Pennsylvania and its 19 electoral votes could wind up being the decisive state.

00:29:41.000 Pennsylvania looks like it has life.

00:29:43.000 I'll tell you, I was bearish on Pennsylvania a couple months ago until I've seen, for the first time in recent, remember, we covered this last week, 67 out of 67 counties in Pennsylvania are now outpacing Republican voter registration and Democrat voter registration.

00:29:59.000 So look, we're such a ways out.

00:30:01.000 Here's the takeaway.

00:30:03.000 What are you doing this week to get Donald Trump closer to victory?

00:30:06.000 How many people have you registered to vote?

00:30:07.000 I'll tell you what I'm doing.

00:30:08.000 I'm going to University of Washington in Seattle, and I'm going to go into there.

00:30:13.000 I'm going to walk by the encampment if they let me, and I'm going to go rally thousands of patriots in Seattle and reach millions of people on social media, not to mention do the three hours of radio here.

00:30:23.000 What are you guys doing?

00:30:24.000 The answer should be something.

00:30:25.000 Download the Turning Point Action app.

00:30:46.000 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.

00:30:52.000 They've been part of this cancel culture, so they want to pass the savings directly on to you by having a $25 extravaganza.

00:30:59.000 When Mike started MyPillow, it was just a one-product company.

00:31:43.000 I want to share with you guys how we're doing on the podcast charts.

00:31:47.000 Let's get that picture up on the podcast charts.

00:31:52.000 Thank you guys.

00:31:52.000 This is the power of this audience right here.

00:31:54.000 Number four in Apple News right now.

00:31:56.000 Thank you guys.

00:31:57.000 If you want to subscribe, we could put the QR code in the bottom left-hand corner.

00:31:59.000 This audience is one of the largest in the country, and it's with very little to almost nothing paid media and all that.

00:32:07.000 We do a little ads maybe on Truth Social, but almost nothing compared to what other people do.

00:32:12.000 And it really is a grassroots thing.

00:32:14.000 So if you guys want to subscribe to the Charlie Kirk Show podcast, we are the number one conservative podcast out there right now on the Apple news charts, and we want to stay that way.

00:32:23.000 So thank you.

00:32:24.000 And also this show is doing very well.

00:32:25.000 Yeah, that was this weekend, too.

00:32:26.000 That is Apple Podcasts, news commentary by conservative right there and some great folks up there.

00:32:33.000 Again, we go up and down.

00:32:34.000 That's news commentary, up and down and up and down.

00:32:36.000 It's a constant horse race, but apparently our arguments, the arguments we've been making and the results we've been posting are really resonating with folks.

00:32:44.000 So thank you guys.

00:32:45.000 I agree.

00:32:46.000 It's the Andrew and Blake bump.

00:32:47.000 When they host it, just we skyrocket in the charts.

00:32:50.000 They must just, the whole time, plug the podcast, plugged and plug and plug.

00:32:54.000 It's really, I got to do it more.

00:32:55.000 So, and by the way, on the podcast, if you guys are not yet subscribed, what's so great about it, you can listen to it 24-7 all the time.

00:33:02.000 And you could text it to your friends.

00:33:04.000 You can slow it down.

00:33:05.000 You can speed it up.

00:33:06.000 You can go deep into the ideas.

00:33:08.000 It's terrific.

00:33:09.000 Okay, I want to get here to another piece of tape.

00:33:12.000 I really respect my colleague Hugh Hewitt, but I don't know about, I agree with him in one sense here, but I'm not sure I like this attitude.

00:33:20.000 And I think he would receive this, which is we have to play as if we're five points down.

00:33:25.000 I think Hugh is analyzing this correctly, but what are you doing today to help Donald Trump get closer to victory?

00:33:31.000 I want you to write one name down as you're watching or listening to this program of one person in your life who did not vote in 2020, who you think you can get to vote for Donald Trump.

00:33:41.000 With the millions of people that watch this program, if you find one person, we win the election.

00:33:47.000 If every single person did this, do your part.

00:33:50.000 Download the Turning Point Action app.

00:33:52.000 Play Cut 24.

00:33:54.000 Former president is establishing a lead, the sort of lead that if you were watching the Kentucky Derby or any of the other Belmonts, you'd be tearing up your tickets if you didn't have your money on the horse named Trump.

00:34:03.000 He is pulling away.

00:34:05.000 And I want to go back to the CNN poll.

00:34:07.000 He's 11 points ahead of Joe Biden on voters 18 to 34.

00:34:11.000 That's a crisis for him.

00:34:13.000 I agree.

00:34:14.000 But now is not the time for us to rest on our laurels.

00:34:16.000 And here is the takeaway from the meeting I had with the Trump campaign and the RNC, which, by the way, we're now legally allowed to communicate with door knocking and ballot chasing, ballot harvesting, canvassing, which is an FEC decision, by the way, that was done by Mark Elias.

00:34:32.000 So Mark Elias and the Elias group sued.

00:34:34.000 The FEC granted this, which saying that presidential campaigns can now work with outside groups on canvassing, door knocking, ballot chasing, ballot collection.

00:34:45.000 It is a complete, it's a brave new world out there for candidates outside group harmony.

00:34:51.000 Brave new world.

00:34:53.000 And to the Trump campaign and RNC's credit, within a month of the ruling, they invited us in.

00:34:58.000 And we had a great conversation.

00:35:00.000 We had a great meeting.

00:35:00.000 I'm not going to tell you all about it, obviously.

00:35:02.000 A lot of private stuff there.

00:35:03.000 The left watches everything we're saying.

00:35:04.000 I'm just going to say it was terrific.

00:35:06.000 And when all said and done, Turning Point Action will have the largest standing army of ballot chasers in Arizona, Wisconsin.

00:35:14.000 Those two states we're going all in on.

00:35:15.000 Wisconsin's going to be a knife fight. 0.97

00:35:17.000 I'll tell you.

00:35:17.000 Wisconsin's going to be tough.

00:35:18.000 We've got a lot of work to do in Wisconsin.

00:35:20.000 In fact, right now, Wisconsin's not looking great.

00:35:24.000 We're probably behind the ball in Wisconsin.

00:35:26.000 We got to play a little catch up there.

00:35:28.000 Arizona, about 50-50.

00:35:29.000 Some good, some bad.

00:35:31.000 Do your part.

00:35:33.000 Every single one of us, all of our agency combined, go find one voter, two persons, two people.

00:35:40.000 That were 120 days out.

00:35:41.000 Are you going to do your part?
