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

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

00:02:39.000June 14th through 16th, 2024 is our final battle in Detroit, Michigan.
00:02:45.000The great silent majority is rising like never before.
00:03:24.000Friday, I tweeted out, had an impressive meeting today with the Trump campaign team and the new RNC leadership.
00:03:32.000Due to new FEC guidance, campaigns can now work much more closely with outside groups like Turning Point Action on canvassing and door knocking.
00:03:41.00012 groups were present as we shared ideas on how to win in November.
00:03:46.000The attention to detail, no BS attitude, and sophistication was striking.
00:03:52.000As someone who has been a skeptic of the RNC in the past, I'm very encouraged by what is happening.
00:03:58.000It's time to build the biggest grassroots army in history.
00:04:01.000We're up against the oligarchs and an entire regime.
00:04:45.000If I might take a pause, have we not been the leading voice on this for now nearly a year and a half?
00:04:53.000Since January of 2023, we've been telling people, hey, it's going to come down to a collection of six states.
00:04:59.000It's going to come down to really three states, Georgia, Arizona, Wisconsin, Georgia, Arizona, Wisconsin.
00:05:04.000The 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.
00:05:14.000It'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.
00:05:25.000It's only like 130, 140 days till ballots come out.
00:05:31.000An 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.
00:05:40.000In private conversations, Democrats are a lot more worried about November than Republicans are.
00:05:48.000This is the buried lead in Axios, everybody.
00:06:55.000Republicans that would talk to Axios, I totally believe Republicans tend to be some of the cockier people in politics.
00:07:03.000As 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.
00:08:48.000Joe Biden's going to run on stability.
00:08:50.000He might have been able to do that in 2020 because the country was overwhelmed by Floyd Palooza, by COVID, masks, vaccines.
00:09:02.000However, Joe Biden as the stability candidate, this is something where Donald Trump can really exploit Joe Biden.
00:09:09.000Donald Trump's four years, despite the media impression, were far more stable than what we've lived through.
00:09:14.000Lived through Afghanistan, Israel, Hamas, Russia, Ukraine, the southern border, rising crime.
00:09:22.000Again, Axios is just repurposing what we have said for quite some time, but it's helpful and it's confirmation.
00:09:29.000By 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.
00:09:40.000Washington Post found that the winner would have changed by flipping just over 81,000 votes in four states.
00:10:03.000If you're able to increase the voting population and increase turnout with Trump voters, you make up with the persuadable audience.
00:10:11.000Senior advisor to President Clinton and widely followed election oracle says, quote, education now transcends race as the best predictor of voting.
00:10:21.000People are increasingly choosing to liver on others who share their values and beliefs, which has led to homogenization of how communities vote.
00:10:31.000The more college educated you are, the more likely you are to support Joe Biden.
00:10:37.000The more degrees you have, the more support you are of what Joe Biden is doing to this country.
00:10:43.000The 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.
00:10:54.000When the experts say something, you believe it.
00:10:57.000When someone has a nice flashy title, you say, oh, well, they must be right.
00:11:02.000It is going to come down to who has the better ground operation.
00:11:07.000That 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.
00:11:18.000It is about finding the low propensity voters and making sure they're registered to vote.
00:11:22.000And on top of that, losing by less in the key communities like college campuses.
00:11:30.000A poll this weekend shows that Donald Trump is winning the under 30 vote by five points.
00:12:22.000But the truth is, the system is designed to trap you in debt.
00:12:26.000Insanely high interest rate credit cards and loans make it nearly impossible to pay off your debt.
00:12:30.000There's a new way out of the debt trap, pivotal debt solutions.
00:12:34.000Pivotal debt solutions isn't like the old school debt relief companies that string your debt out for years.
00:12:40.000They have new aggressive strategies that can end your debt faster and easier than you thought possible.
00:12:45.000With 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.
00:12:55.000Bottom line is they find every solution possible to end your debt permanently.
00:13:00.000Before you do anything, contact Pivotal Debt Solutions first to talk to them for free.
00:13:04.000Find out how fast they can get you out of debt.
00:14:18.000During the lockdowns, we yielded our power to experts.
00:14:22.000Now, 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.
00:14:35.000Experts say, experts say, experts have done more damage to this country than the working class ever could imagine.
00:14:45.000Dr. Fauci should be in gitmo for what he did.
00:14:54.000The experts had lunatics driving alone in their cars, masked and afraid that the radio was going to emit COVID.
00:15:04.000We have become so trusting of experts.
00:15:08.000And 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.
00:15:34.000I get asked all the time, I say, Charlie, why do you go to college campuses and talk to these kids?
00:15:38.000Outside 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.
00:15:49.000Even though you see some of these videos, like, oh my goodness, I can't believe college kids are so off base.
00:15:54.000If 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.
00:16:11.000Let me introduce you to a guy by the name of Jared Bernstein.
00:17:37.000Because they sell bonds and people buy the bonds and lend them the money.
00:17:40.000Yeah, 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.
00:18:05.000I don't know what they're talking about, like, because it's like the government clearly prints money.
00:18:11.000It does it all the time, and it clearly borrows.
00:18:14.000Otherwise, we wouldn't be having this debt and deficit conversation.
00:18:17.000So I don't think there's anything confusing there.
00:18:20.000He couldn't put two sentences together.
00:18:22.000He's the chair of the federal government Council of Economic Advisors, the chair.
00:18:40.000You sell bonds, and someone needs to buy those bonds.
00:18:46.000Folks, 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.
00:18:55.000That's why my friends at Hillsdale College have produced a free online course on this topic, American Citizenship and Its Decline.
00:19:02.000Taught 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.
00:19:15.000Americans 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.
00:19:24.000Hillsdale'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.
00:19:34.000So sign up today for Hillsdale's free online course, American Citizenship and Its Decline, by visiting charlieforhillsdale.com.
00:20:14.000These are the people that are in charge.
00:20:16.000Jared Bernstein, who is the chair of the economic advisors, cannot explain to you how we finance our debt.
00:20:26.000So 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.
00:20:35.000Oh, the government tells me that the shot is perfectly safe and effective, that the economy is wonderful and inflation is on the way down.
00:21:03.000I'm not going to just feed my kid high fructose corn syrup.
00:21:08.000I'm not going to listen to the government when it says that the people who give birth are not women, but birthing people.
00:21:17.000These are the experts that tell you that the debt doesn't matter.
00:21:21.000And 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.
00:23:28.000And 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.
00:23:36.000John, there is significant softness in the support for Joe Biden among core Democrats.
00:23:41.000In this poll, he's carrying black voters by 61 points.
00:23:44.000Well, that sounds like a lot, but he carried them by 84 points back in 2020.
00:23:48.000Latino voters, a very slight Biden edge in this poll, but it was a 21-point advantage in the exit polls back in 2020.
00:23:54.000And among younger voters under 30, we're actually seeing Trump with a slight edge.
00:23:58.000That was a big win for Biden last time around.
00:24:01.000It's particularly stark to see that difference among voters of color.
00:24:05.000Black voters under age 50, far less likely in this poll to say they're supporting Joe Biden than older black voters.
00:24:11.000Dare I say that younger voters are seeing a turning point?
00:24:16.000We don't want to celebrate too soon, but there's something happening.
00:24:20.000By 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.
00:24:32.000So I don't know how that one's going to work out.
00:25:02.000I think that's very important because some people say, oh, Charlie, you shouldn't call people ugly.
00:25:05.000No, I agree in the sense of how God made you.
00:25:09.000I'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.
00:26:56.000I think some of the polling is underestimating some of the turnout scenarios.
00:27:01.000But 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.
00:27:13.000They have seen their stock portfolio go up.
00:27:16.000They say, oh, Donald Trump is a little rough around the edges.
00:27:19.000Whereas 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.
00:27:32.000They are priced out of the American dream.
00:27:37.000And Donald Trump speaks to them in a way where he says, we're going to revitalize what you are missing.
00:27:45.000And I think this is a very important message that we must hammer.
00:27:49.000Joe Biden is against the middle class owning property.
00:27:56.000And 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.
00:28:05.000He believes that the government cannot go bankrupt because we issue our own debt.
00:28:12.000That is against the laws of nature and nature's God.
00:28:16.000You are declaring war on the laws of economics.
00:28:19.000And yes, there are the laws of physics, the laws of thermodynamics, and the laws of economics.
00:28:25.000And you are declaring war on such laws.
00:28:30.000The Axios articles continue by saying the bottom line, as if this is breaking news for this program.
00:28:36.000Those of you that listen intently, you know how focused we are on the states, counties, precincts.
00:28:41.000And that's exactly where we're deploying our turning point action ballot chasers.
00:28:47.000Trump needs to pick off one of the Midwestern blue wall states he lost in 2020, Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania.
00:28:55.000Under current electoral vote rules in Nebraska and Maine, and we have our eyes on Nebraska, don't worry.
00:29:43.000I'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.
00:30:08.000I'm going to University of Washington in Seattle, and I'm going to go into there.
00:30:13.000I'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.
00:32:14.000So 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.
00:32:34.000That's news commentary, up and down and up and down.
00:32:36.000It'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.
00:33:09.000Okay, I want to get here to another piece of tape.
00:33:12.000I 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.
00:33:20.000And I think he would receive this, which is we have to play as if we're five points down.
00:33:25.000I think Hugh is analyzing this correctly, but what are you doing today to help Donald Trump get closer to victory?
00:33:31.000I 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.
00:33:41.000With the millions of people that watch this program, if you find one person, we win the election.
00:33:47.000If every single person did this, do your part.
00:33:50.000Download the Turning Point Action app.
00:33:54.000Former 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.
00:34:14.000But now is not the time for us to rest on our laurels.
00:34:16.000And 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.
00:34:32.000So Mark Elias and the Elias group sued.
00:34:34.000The FEC granted this, which saying that presidential campaigns can now work with outside groups on canvassing, door knocking, ballot chasing, ballot collection.
00:34:45.000It is a complete, it's a brave new world out there for candidates outside group harmony.
