00:01:38.000 Turning point USA. 0.65
00:01:40.000 We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.
00:01:48.000 That's why we are here.
00:01:51.000 Brought to you by the Loan Experts I Trust, Andrew and Todd at Sierra Pacific Mortgage at andrewandTodd.com.
00:02:00.000 Joe Biden is officially running for reelection.
00:02:03.000 We made a prediction last year.
00:02:05.000 We were said, we don't know if Joe Biden's going to run.
00:02:07.000 You know, are they going to indict Hunter?
00:02:09.000 Are they going to come after it?
00:02:11.000 Are they going to go after the regime and disassemble it?
00:02:17.000 And we weren't sure.
00:02:18.000 Seems that there is a new era of politics that has come in, which is it's all about the machine.
00:02:26.000 It's all about the political machine you build in the early states.
00:02:29.000 It's all about Wisconsin, Georgia, and Arizona.
00:02:33.000 You see, Joe Biden is running for reelection, and I have a provocative but honest take.
00:02:38.000 And I know many of you, you don't want to be lied to any longer.
00:02:42.000 So I'm going to tell you exactly how it is right now.
00:02:46.000 And we're going to play Joe Biden's re-election announcement video.
00:02:49.000 Joe Biden is going to be very tough to beat.
00:02:51.000 I've said it before, and I'll say it again.
00:02:52.000 It's not about Joe Biden, okay?
00:02:54.000 It's not about his ability to speak sentences, which he can't do.
00:02:56.000 And he obviously has dementia.
00:02:58.000 He obviously doesn't always know where he is.
00:02:59.000 And we can make fun of that.
00:03:01.000 Elections as we know it no longer really exist.
00:03:06.000 It's now a game.
00:03:07.000 It's a game of who can put the most pieces of paper in a ballot dropbox.
00:03:11.000 It's about ballot chasing, voter registration, signature verification, lawfare.
00:03:15.000 It's about the plumbing of elections.
00:03:17.000 And you pair that with billions of dollars that will be spent on misleading advertisements, going negative on Republicans and boosting Joe Biden.
00:03:25.000 Joe Biden is the strong favorite, regardless of who he runs against.
00:03:29.000 It doesn't matter if he's done a crummy job.
00:03:31.000 They're going to micro-target voter after voter using artificial intelligence.
00:03:35.000 And look, so here's their latest announcement video.
00:03:39.000 It's a good announcement video.
00:03:41.000 I mean, people on our team said, wow, that's powerful.
00:03:42.000 Why don't Republicans make videos like this?
00:03:45.000 Good question.
00:03:46.000 I have no good answer.
00:03:46.000 I don't know.
00:03:49.000 But I mean, I can almost guarantee that this entire announcement video was used with AI of what words, what phrases, what buzzwords resonate the most, run through a chat GPT equivalent.
00:04:02.000 Joe Biden had nothing to do with creating this.
00:04:04.000 And with the election of John Fetterman, they've proved that they can get anybody into office.
00:04:10.000 It does not matter.
00:04:12.000 So while we are in the middle of what's going to be a very expensive Republican primary, worrying about debates and candidate selection and all this, the Democrats have announced they're basically canceling all primary debates.
00:04:25.000 They don't want to have Robert Kennedy Jr. against Joe Biden.
00:04:28.000 They're going to coronate Joe Biden.
00:04:30.000 They're going to raise a couple billion dollars.
00:04:31.000 They're going to spend those couple billion dollars in Arizona, Wisconsin, and Georgia.
00:04:35.000 They're going to sue in Wisconsin, where they now control the Supreme Court.
00:04:38.000 They're going to say it's easier than ever to vote by mail.
00:04:41.000 And if the signature doesn't match, it doesn't matter.
00:04:43.000 And if you disagree, you're a racist.
00:04:45.000 That's where they're going to be spending their resources.
00:04:47.000 And we are playing an outdated model.
00:04:50.000 We on the right, we think that candidates matter.
00:04:52.000 Now, candidates matter when you govern.
00:04:56.000 Candidates matter if it's an absolutely horrendous candidate.
00:04:59.000 If you're a Republican, Democrats, the media will discover for you.
00:05:02.000 They'll support you of a multi-billion dollar super PAC called the American mainstream media.
00:05:07.000 So here's Joe Biden, his re-election announcement video, play cut 23.
00:05:12.000 When I ran for president four years ago, I said we're in a battle for the soul of America.
00:05:17.000 And we still are.
00:05:19.000 The question we're facing is whether in the years ahead, we have more freedom or less freedom.
00:05:24.000 More rights or fewer.
00:05:26.000 I know what I want the answer to be, and I think you do too.
00:05:30.000 This is not a time to be complacent.
00:05:36.000 That's why I'm running for reelection. 1.00
00:05:38.000 That means a bunch of trash. 0.98
00:05:39.000 So it's really interesting. 0.90
00:05:42.000 When you release a press release as a publicly traded company, at the end of the press release, you have to disclose when you use certain buzzwords or forward-facing statements.
00:05:53.000 So for example, if you're Pepsi or if you're Coca-Cola or if you are American Express, at the end of your earnings report, at the end, by law, the SEC, the Security Exchange Commission requires it, you have to say, this press release included forward-facing statements, including this, and this.
00:06:12.000 In politics, it would probably do us some good to have the same.
00:06:15.000 This political advertisement had emotionally charged music and artificially intelligent, you know, poll-tested buzzword.
00:06:23.000 He doesn't believe any of it.
00:06:24.000 It's all nonsense, but it's going to work.
00:06:25.000 People are gullible.
00:06:27.000 This was designed to make you feel so.
00:06:31.000 And it's going to work.
00:06:33.000 And by the way, Joe Biden has nothing to do with this.
00:06:35.000 I don't even know a human being made this.
00:06:36.000 If everyone could have been just right into a information, language processing, almost sentient machine, pops out a video, and they're going to do this relentlessly.
00:06:46.000 So while we're focused on the primary, they're going to be focused on continually building this machine.
00:06:51.000 And what is he running on?
00:06:52.000 And we can laugh at this.
00:06:53.000 We can say, oh, wow, this is not a winning message.
00:06:55.000 Messages don't motivate people.
00:06:57.000 They're going to then, what they do is they create 100 little micro-targeted communities in Arizona.
00:07:02.000 The Republicans do none of this.
00:07:04.000 The RNC wasted time.
00:07:05.000 And they say, okay, here's our pro-abortion voters.
00:07:08.000 Here's our anti-gun voters.
00:07:10.000 Here's our race-conscious voters.
00:07:12.000 Here's our suburban mom voters.
00:07:14.000 And they pummel them with micro-targeted advertising that has been scientifically proven through their models to get emotional response, early voting triggering, and be persuasive for people in the middle.
00:07:26.000 Very complex machinery that they're using.
00:07:28.000 Play cut 33.
00:07:39.000 Freedom.
00:07:42.000 Personal freedom is fundamental to who we are as Americans.
00:07:46.000 There's nothing more important, nothing more sacred.
00:07:49.000 That's been the work of my first term to fight for our democracy.
00:07:54.000 But you know, around the country, MAGA extremists are lining up to take on those bedrock freedoms, cutting Social Security that you've paid for your entire life while cutting taxes for the very wealthy, dictating what healthcare decisions women can make, banning books, and telling people who they can love, all while making it more difficult for you to be able to vote.
00:08:13.000 It's all lies.
00:08:14.000 It's all nonsense. 0.99
00:08:15.000 It's balderdash. 0.98
00:08:16.000 It's bluster.
00:08:17.000 But this is their game. 0.99
00:08:20.000 It does not matter if the candidate is brain dead.
00:08:23.000 It does not matter if the candidate does not know what planet they're on.
00:08:28.000 And what the main thesis that I'm trying to submit to you today is because I just went to a political event a couple days ago and the speaker went up on stage.
00:08:35.000 He said, we're going to win in 2024 and everyone starts applauding.
00:08:39.000 And I confronted him afterwards.
00:08:40.000 I said, what's wrong with you?
00:08:41.000 He said, what evidence do you have to support that?
00:08:44.000 Like, yes, we can win.
00:08:45.000 He said, oh, well, the American people are with us and there's going to be this massive wave.
00:08:49.000 I said, since when do elections actually represent the sentiment of voters?
00:08:53.000 I said, why are you doing this?
00:08:56.000 You're doing a disservice.
00:08:57.000 Instead, the message should be, we're the underdogs, and we got to work and scrap and hustle and become precinct committee men and try to limit their ability to do shenanigans and cheat, have robust signature verification, limit mail and balloting, not just all of a sudden do big rallies, ballot chase.
00:09:19.000 You know, someone said, Charlie, is it time for us to launder ballots?
00:09:22.000 No, no, no, no, hold on.
00:09:24.000 That's illegal.
00:09:25.000 We don't do that. 0.93
00:09:26.000 They do that. 1.00
00:09:28.000 We need to ballot chase.
00:09:31.000 We need to follow the law.
00:09:32.000 The bad guys, they break the law.
00:09:36.000 And I'm going to be nothing but honest with all of you.
00:09:39.000 As of today, they take out Tucker.
00:09:42.000 They take out James O'Keefe.
00:09:43.000 They've limited the role of the NRA.
00:09:45.000 They try to limit Steve Bannon.
00:09:46.000 They're limiting all of our best players.
00:09:48.000 They're spending billions of dollars in the key states.
00:09:50.000 They are going straight for the throat of the American Republic. 0.92
00:09:53.000 They are inches away from storming the quote-unquote Bastille, from their revolution being complete.
00:09:58.000 And it's not about Joe Biden.
00:10:02.000 It's not.
00:10:03.000 It's about what they've built and the infrastructure.
00:10:06.000 And I could see the emails.
00:10:07.000 This is exactly my point.
00:10:08.000 We're getting hundreds of emails.
00:10:10.000 Charlie, I refuse to vote.
00:10:11.000 I'm not going to vote.
00:10:12.000 These are not jokes.
00:10:13.000 I mean, so they've already done their job because we're going to disenfranchise ourselves.
00:10:17.000 At the pace that this is going to go, they're going to get all their voters out and hundreds of thousands of our own are going to stay at home.
00:10:23.000 There's email right here.
00:10:24.000 Charlie, I refuse to vote and engage in a broken system.
00:10:27.000 They're going to steal it again.
00:10:29.000 The country is dead.
00:10:30.000 Well, we have a lot of people in our audience that proudly no longer vote.
00:10:30.000 Okay.
00:10:36.000 Hopefully we can persuade you otherwise.
00:10:36.000 It's too bad.
00:10:38.000 I hope that's an exaggeration and not accurate.
00:10:44.000 The Democrats are going for the throat.
00:10:46.000 And Joe Biden is not just favored.
00:10:48.000 His machine, forget Joe Biden, the entire campaign and the operation is heavily favored.
00:10:55.000 And you need to know that.
00:10:57.000 Anybody who tells you otherwise is misleading you and is a hopium dealer. 1.00

00:11:41.000 And look, we're in the middle of a mass demoralization campaign.
00:11:45.000 They want you to give up.
00:11:46.000 They want to demoralize us from within by surprise, terror, sabotage.
00:11:51.000 This is exactly what they try to do.
00:11:54.000 And it's working.
00:11:55.000 Try to take out our figureheads, try to take out our best players.
00:11:58.000 As I've said before, they're coming after Turning Point USA hard, kidnapping our speakers, coming after us with weapons, everything you could imagine.
00:12:05.000 They're going to come after this program.
00:12:06.000 They've come after this program a lot.
00:12:08.000 So, yes, keep us in your prayers, and hopefully, we'll be ready.
00:12:11.000 And we'll do this show until they take us off air, until they censor us from the Pullet Bureau or they send us to some sort of other place.
00:12:19.000 Let's just put it that way.
00:12:20.000 But we're not going to give up.
00:12:21.000 And you shouldn't give up either.
00:12:22.000 That's not the point of my message.
00:12:24.000 I mean, sometimes what you say is not always what people hear.
00:12:27.000 We're getting a lot of emails.
00:12:28.000 People, Charlie, you're trying to say that to give up, it's so negative.
00:12:31.000 No, I'm being honest.
00:12:32.000 I'm being real.
00:12:33.000 You want me to lie?
00:12:34.000 You go to the doctor.
00:12:35.000 You want to tell them, do you want to hear that you have a tumor or not?
00:12:38.000 Yes, we have a tumor and we have to remove it.
00:12:41.000 The tumor is the American Democrat Party. 0.92
00:12:42.000 It's a virus, the contagion, the bacterial infection on the country. 0.99
00:12:46.000 Let's remove it. 1.00
00:12:47.000 It's a parasite.
00:12:49.000 And so the honest truth is they have a lot of momentum. 0.68
00:12:53.000 They think they have figured it out and they are relentless.
00:12:56.000 We are not.
00:12:57.000 We are constantly on defense and there's something to it.
00:12:59.000 Producer Andrew made a very smart point yesterday.
00:13:01.000 We had a conference call on a couple topics.
00:13:04.000 He said there's something about conservatives that feels like we're always on defense.
00:13:08.000 And it makes sense because we're trying to conserve things.
00:13:10.000 So it seems like we're always just trying to go backwards.
00:13:15.000 By definition, we are defensive.
00:13:18.000 And that's not necessarily incorrect.
00:13:22.000 It's our neutral position because we're more interested in building families, building businesses. 0.99
00:13:28.000 The left, they are parasites. 0.99
00:13:30.000 They take over things. 1.00
00:13:31.000 They're an offensive position.
00:13:32.000 They're invaders. 0.62
00:13:33.000 They're conquerors.
00:13:34.000 They're imperialists.
00:13:35.000 For us, we're not programmed that way to go like take ground and to play offense.
00:13:42.000 For us, we consider it to be indecent.
00:13:43.000 Like, well, you know, live and let live.
00:13:45.000 Meanwhile, they're trans and your kids and the borders are open. 0.99
00:13:48.000 Like, live and let live. 0.81
00:13:49.000 And your grandkids hate America.
00:13:52.000 Live and let live.
00:13:52.000 And critical race theories in the schools and live and let live.
00:13:55.000 And they take out Tucker and they take out Trump.
00:13:59.000 They take out Tucker and O'Keefe in 45 days.
00:14:03.000 You think that's a coincidence?
00:14:04.000 Let's just go through that again.
00:14:05.000 They take out O'Keefe, they take out Tucker, and they indict Trump.
00:14:08.000 Boom, boom, boom.
00:14:10.000 And yeah, people say, oh, Charlie, are you next?
00:14:12.000 I mean, sure, bring it on, man.
00:14:14.000 Like, we have no delusions as if we're untouchable.
00:14:19.000 And we'll hopefully stay prayerful and faithful.
00:14:21.000 And you guys will hopefully continue to support us.
00:14:24.000 We understand we're up against a relentless opposition.
00:14:28.000 If you guys think they're not going to come after you, they'll come after you in their own form or fashion.
00:14:33.000 Knock on the door of an IRS agent, cancellation of a friend.
00:14:37.000 So, therefore, what I'm trying to say is an attitude shift, multiple attitude shifts.
00:14:42.000 How about some offense?
00:14:43.000 That's what we try to do every single day at Turning Point USA.
00:14:46.000 We're going to take ground.
00:14:48.000 We're not just going to play defense, a paradigm shift.
00:14:51.000 And we have to be honest.
00:14:56.000 Every one of you in this audience, I want you to go into 2024 with the attitude that we're probably going to lose unless we do something dramatic and different.
00:15:10.000 In 2016, we largely won, I believe, because we had an underdog, scrappy hustle mentality and attitude.
00:15:21.000 In 2020, there was cockiness, galore.
00:15:24.000 There was hubris, pride, and the other side was complacent in 16.
00:15:28.000 That's not going to happen again.
00:15:31.000 The 16 bombshell has been tattooed into the memory of the American Democrat oligarchs.
00:15:38.000 That's not going to happen.
00:15:39.000 So they're now prepared.
00:15:40.000 No more sneak attacks.
00:15:42.000 No more sabotage.
00:15:44.000 It's not sabotage, but no more ambush.
00:15:46.000 That's the better word, not sabotage.
00:15:48.000 No more ambush campaigns.
00:15:50.000 So it's up us against them.
00:15:51.000 Now, we have more numbers.
00:15:53.000 They have awful ideas. 0.98
00:15:55.000 They have a brain-dead candidate, but they got a lot. 0.99
00:15:57.000 They got the mainstream media. 0.78
00:15:58.000 That's a multi-billion dollar super PAC.
00:16:00.000 They got the tech companies.
00:16:01.000 They got every major CEO.
00:16:02.000 Joe Biden will raise unlimited amounts of money.
00:16:04.000 They got ballot trafficking, relaxed signature verification standards.
00:16:07.000 They got the Supreme Court in Wisconsin.
00:16:09.000 They got all sorts of stuff.
00:16:11.000 So it's going to come down to a couple counties and a couple states.
00:16:14.000 And if we play ball, we can maybe win.
00:16:18.000 But what I don't want, and I hear it a lot from people.
00:16:20.000 Oh, come on.
00:16:22.000 I heard this a couple of days ago from a Republican donor.
00:16:24.000 Charlie, I refuse to believe that in America, Joe Biden can get re-elected.
00:16:28.000 I said, what?
00:16:29.000 What universe?
00:16:30.000 Of course he could get re-elected.
00:16:33.000 What makes you believe that?
00:16:36.000 Like some sort of 1980 time warp that you're still living in?
00:16:42.000 The country has fundamentally changed.
00:16:44.000 We have 5,000 illegals coming across the border every single day.
00:16:47.000 The country has changed.
00:16:48.000 Wake up.
00:16:49.000 Not only can Joe Biden win, he's heavily favored.
00:16:53.000 So do we give up?
00:16:54.000 Of course not.
00:16:56.000 We get a plan.
00:16:57.000 We do things differently.
00:16:58.000 We get aggressive.
00:16:59.000 We play in a very, we play in the arena.
00:17:04.000 All right, a lot more to cover on this.
00:17:06.000 Got to think like underdogs.
00:17:08.000 Be honest.

00:18:11.000 Someone says here, Charlie, has the RNC implemented any ballot stuff?
00:18:15.000 No, they've done nothing and they're doing nothing.
00:18:18.000 Don't expect the RNC to do anything in the grassroots, nothing.
00:18:21.000 Flowers, yes, absolutely.
00:18:23.000 Donor mementos, you bet.
00:18:25.000 Turning point action, we're trying to do our best.
00:18:27.000 We're scrappy.
00:18:28.000 We're hustling.
00:18:28.000 We're trying to raise the capital.
00:18:29.000 We've got a lot going on here.
00:18:31.000 But the Democrats are currently running circles around us.
00:18:34.000 This is exactly why I called for an end to the Republican primary last week.
00:18:37.000 Why are we going through the motions here?
00:18:39.000 Donald Trump is up 30 to 40 points in every single Republican primary poll and the primary so that we can go up.
00:18:46.000 Joe Biden is going to have no primary.
00:18:48.000 Shouldn't every precious dollar that we have right now be spent on infrastructure, not trying to figure out who's going to be the nominee of a primary where we know who's going to be the nominee?
00:18:59.000 It's a waste of time.
00:19:00.000 It is a waste of time.
00:19:03.000 So, okay, Donald Trump's going to get beat up by everybody, beat up by Asa Hutchinson, beat up by Nikki Haley, not beat up, but you know what I have.
00:19:09.000 He's going to end up beating them up.
00:19:10.000 And then it's the media will love it.
00:19:12.000 They're going to say, wow, look at all of this and headline here, Republican Civil War, Republican quarrel.
00:19:17.000 And Joe Biden will be laughing, eating ice cream, not knowing what state he's in, while the big oligarchs of the Democrat Party are pouring money into voter registration in Georgia, in Arizona, and Wisconsin.
00:19:27.000 What is the RNC going to do?
00:19:28.000 They're going to be too busy hosting debates at this entire circus.
00:19:32.000 Why are we putting ourselves through this?
00:19:34.000 Why are we supporting this entire exercise?
00:19:39.000 I know the reason why, because this is the feeding frenzy.
00:19:42.000 This is the harvest for the Republican consultants.
00:19:45.000 Nothing pays as well as a Republican primary.
00:19:47.000 Nothing.
00:19:48.000 A ton of consultants are able to represent these candidates.
00:19:50.000 They raise a bunch of money.
00:19:51.000 They run high-priced ads.
00:19:52.000 They finish fourth, but they get a nice payday.
00:19:54.000 This is the harvest.
00:19:56.000 It happens every four to eight years, eight years.
00:19:58.000 It's like the year of Jubilee.
00:20:00.000 They just go nuts.
00:20:01.000 Meanwhile, the Democrat Party, which is ruled by an Iron Fist by George Soros, Loren Powell Jobs, Reid Hoffman, and the entire Cabal of Democrats, they're not going to do any of it.
00:20:11.000 No opposition.
00:20:12.000 Basically, they're basically ending their primary.
00:20:14.000 The party of democracy, the party that lectures us about democracy, no debates, basically no primary, pure coronation, neoliberalism on display.
00:20:24.000 The revolution continues.
00:20:25.000 Do not question it.
00:20:26.000 We're going to use power against you and raise money.
00:20:28.000 The party of democracy doesn't want to have a problem, does not want to have any primary because they know a primary is messy.
00:20:33.000 It allows voices that they can't control.
00:20:37.000 And we're not 100% sure that Gavin Newsom is out.
00:20:39.000 We don't know any of this, but it certainly looks like the powers at B are lining up and saying, coronation time, go to Wisconsin, Georgia, Pennsylvania, pour money into that and build the infrastructure.
00:20:54.000 Joe Biden continues.
00:20:55.000 This is what I can't stand.
00:20:57.000 So people say, well, Charlie, how could he win?
00:21:00.000 Look at the polls.
00:21:01.000 Polls don't mean anything.
00:21:03.000 John Fetterman is a U.S. senator.
00:21:05.000 I'm not even saying John Fetterman, quote unquote, one.
00:21:07.000 He is a senator, okay?
00:21:09.000 He had more pieces of paper that they counted than the other person.
00:21:12.000 Kerry Lake was up 15 points in polls.
00:21:14.000 I don't care about the polls.
00:21:16.000 You have to stop looking at polls.
00:21:17.000 Do you have infrastructure?
00:21:19.000 Do you have ballot chasers?
00:21:20.000 Do you have grassroots warriors that are doing the type of work?
00:21:23.000 I could tell you, at turning point action, we're doing our best.
00:21:26.000 And it is a sad side of affairs.
00:21:29.000 Almost no one is doing this type of work.
00:21:30.000 And it's tough work.
00:21:31.000 It's clipboard and tennis type of work.
00:21:33.000 It's community organizing work.
00:21:35.000 It's early to rise, late to bed, work-like hell and organized type work.
00:21:41.000 It's Alinsky type work.
00:21:42.000 It's thankless work.
00:21:45.000 Play cut 27.
00:21:46.000 They say, oh, the country doesn't want him.
00:21:47.000 Doesn't matter.
00:21:49.000 It does not matter.
00:21:52.000 Play cut 27.
00:21:54.000 The other issue that the president faces is this kind of meh attitude from Democrats here.
00:21:59.000 70% of all Americans, including 51% of Democrats.
00:22:03.000 So more than half of Democrats say they just don't want to see him run again.
00:22:07.000 Yeah, but again, when they're micro-targeted with relentless advertising, it says, Republicans want to take away your right to abortion in case someone gets raped.
00:22:15.000 And they're relentlessly pummeled with this advertisement.
00:22:17.000 They're going to knock on the door for a ballot chaser to early vote.
00:22:21.000 The data has shown us it doesn't matter if they're animated by the candidate.
00:22:24.000 They will vote against Republicans and they have a machinery to make that happen.
00:22:29.000 28 continues.
00:22:30.000 Democrats accept Biden's reelection campaign, but they aren't necessarily excited about it.
00:22:36.000 They are, you see, they, it's so interesting.
00:22:38.000 Democrats, in some ways, disrupted this idea of machine politics.
00:22:43.000 George W. Bush, for all of his faults, Karl Rove built a very, let's just say, significant, respectable political machine in both 2000, 2004.
00:22:55.000 And the question was, can Karl Rove and the Democrats and the Republicans bring that in 2008?
00:22:59.000 Obama, because of his charisma and his silly promises, he had a total personality lift.
00:23:08.000 Democrats are getting away from that. 0.76
00:23:10.000 They're done with candidate selection.
00:23:12.000 They're done with you being excited about a candidate.
00:23:14.000 They want to be able to control everything from how the ballots go to signature verification.
00:23:19.000 They want to be able to have it all within parameters that they can push a button and that they can dictate.
00:23:25.000 Play cut 28.
00:23:26.000 Ahead of the reelection announcement, a CBS news poll found Democrats accept Biden's reelection bid, but aren't necessarily excited about it.
00:23:36.000 And still, nearly half of Democrats don't want the 80-year-old to run.
00:23:40.000 And they cite his age as the reason.
00:23:43.000 Again, doesn't matter.
00:23:44.000 They do not want to have to rely on another Obama.
00:23:48.000 Obama was a once-in-a-generation talent.
00:23:51.000 They don't have a lot of those, and they know it.
00:23:53.000 We have way more talent in our bench.
00:23:55.000 So they're trying to take the personality.
00:23:57.000 They're trying to take talent.
00:23:58.000 They're trying to make quote-unquote politics boring in some sense, of where it's just nuts and bolts, machinery, democracy.
00:24:04.000 When they say democracy, it's really machine Chicago politics.
00:24:09.000 I know this.
00:24:09.000 I grew up there.
00:24:10.000 I saw it firsthand.
00:24:11.000 And you do not want to go up against that machine.
00:24:14.000 It is brutal.
00:24:15.000 It is nasty. 0.94
00:24:16.000 They are cruel, but they are darn effective. 0.92
00:24:20.000 Meanwhile, they push their radical agenda through executive orders and agency rules and regulations.
00:24:24.000 They don't care about excitement.
00:24:26.000 It's all about creating fear of losing their happy place, where they micro-target, oh my gosh, Republicans are going to make it so you can't smoke weed on your porch, or Republicans are going to make it where you can't get an abortion, or Republicans are not going to give you free cash, or Republicans want to cut Medicare, and then they pour billions of dollars into that.
00:24:42.000 And you might say, well, who funds it?
00:24:44.000 Who funds it is the top levels of the J.B. Pritzker, the Pritzker family, Lorene Powell Jobs, Mackenzie Bezos, Reid Hoffman, George Soros, Sergey Brin, Larry Page.
00:24:55.000 Remember, these people are secular humanists for them.
00:24:57.000 This is the ballgame.
00:24:59.000 It's about power for power's sake.
00:25:02.000 And yet, Joe Biden is the guy because he does everything that is asked of him.
00:25:06.000 There is no question.
00:25:07.000 He just signs the document, goes back to sleep.
00:25:10.000 And, you know, there's this genre of content that I'm getting a little bit tired of, where people assume that Joe Biden is beatable because of how, let's just say, inarticulate he is.
00:25:24.000 Like, oh, there's no way.
00:25:25.000 Or wow, he really can't do anything.
00:25:28.000 And, you know, there's, it's just, it's all a distraction.
00:25:32.000 In fact, I think the Democrats in some way are getting a thrill.
00:25:37.000 In fact, I think they get off on getting people like Fetterman and Biden into office because it proves how good their machine is.
00:25:47.000 I think that part of it is that it's almost like a challenge.
00:25:52.000 Like, if you can get John Fetterman to become a senator, I mean, you could do it for anybody.
00:25:59.000 If you're Fetterman's campaign manager, you must feel like a God.
00:26:02.000 It's like it's the ultimate, it's the ultimate accomplishment.
00:26:06.000 I think they also do it as a way to demoralize us.
00:26:08.000 I mean, I can't tell you how many people I talk to and they say, my gosh, man, like Fetterman, what country am I living in?
00:26:15.000 It's not about the sentiment.
00:26:16.000 It's not about the attitude.
00:26:17.000 It's not about values.
00:26:18.000 That stuff doesn't matter anymore in elections.
00:26:21.000 Stop falling for it.
00:26:22.000 I've got article after article of Joe Biden down in the polls.
00:26:24.000 None of this.
00:26:25.000 It does not matter.
00:26:26.000 Stop falling for this.
00:26:28.000 Stop it.
00:26:29.000 So what is the solution?
00:26:30.000 We got to build a machine, man.
00:26:32.000 And the RNC is not doing that.
00:26:33.000 That's why I went and tried to do regime change and failed in that regard.
00:26:38.000 Joe Biden, cut three.
00:26:39.000 Every generation has a moment when they have to defend democracy.
00:26:42.000 Here's an advertisement probably brought to you by Chat GPT, PlayCut 34.
00:26:47.000 Every generation of Americans have faced a moment when they have to defend democracy.
00:26:51.000 Stand up for our personal freedom.
00:26:53.000 Stand up for the right to vote and our civil rights.
00:26:57.000 And this is our moment.
00:27:04.000 So if you're with me, Joe Biden, not God's mother.
00:27:12.000 Let's finish this job.
00:27:13.000 I know we can.
00:27:14.000 Because this is the United States America.
00:27:16.000 There's nothing, simply nothing we cannot do to do it together.
00:27:24.000 All of that is synthetic.
00:27:25.000 It's astroturfed, but it's effective.
00:27:26.000 People are loving it.
00:27:27.000 They're like, wow, Joe Biden is back.
00:27:29.000 It makes me feel good.
00:27:30.000 Like, what a sad, empty existence if that video makes you feel good.
00:27:32.000 Seriously.
00:27:33.000 I mean, if that video animates you to go donate it, joebiden.com, save me.
00:27:37.000 But he didn't campaign in 2020.
00:27:39.000 He was in his basement the whole time.
00:27:41.000 And we're like, oh, wow, look at the Trump rallies.
00:27:43.000 Doesn't matter.
00:27:44.000 Did you chase ballots?
00:27:45.000 No.
00:27:45.000 Did we get people to vote early?
00:27:46.000 No.
00:27:46.000 Did you get people to go register vote?
00:27:48.000 Nope.
00:27:49.000 And they're going to keep on doing it.
00:27:50.000 They're keep on running circles around us.
00:27:52.000 People say, Charlie, you're being awfully depressing today.
00:27:54.000 Wrong.
00:27:55.000 I'm being awfully honest today.
00:27:57.000 And if the truth depresses you, then do something about it.
00:27:59.000 Deborah says, Charlie, you're making me feel so demoralized.
00:28:01.000 You're speaking the truth today.
00:28:02.000 It makes me feel so hopeless.
00:28:03.000 My travel don't talk to me because I'm a MA person.
00:28:06.000 What can I do?
00:28:08.000 I have too much respect for all of you in the audience.
00:28:10.000 I have too much gratitude for all of you.
00:28:12.000 I have too much of a connection to all of you to lie.
00:28:15.000 I don't do that.
00:28:16.000 So what can we do?
00:28:17.000 We got to focus on the three states.
00:28:19.000 We've got to fill every precinct committee spot. 0.96
00:28:20.000 We have to get this primary over with. 1.00
00:28:23.000 End it. 0.69
00:28:24.000 They are going to win if we have a long, bloody primary.
00:28:28.000 Don't you see how Asa Hutchinson gets a long interview on 60 Minutes?
00:28:32.000 How CNN is cheering for a primary? 1.00
00:28:35.000 Every day we spend on this stupid, silly primary where we already know how it's going to end is a day the Democrats build a machine to put a pocket knife to the throat of Lady Liberty. 1.00
00:28:46.000 They are this close. 1.00
00:28:47.000 They are steps away from storming the Capitol.
00:28:50.000 We need a thousand Scott Presslers in a handful of states.
00:28:53.000 That's a good expenditure.
00:28:55.000 1,000 Scott Presslers in Arizona, 1,000 Scott Presslers in Georgia, 1,000 Scott Presslers in Wisconsin.
00:29:01.000 That's something I can invest in.
00:29:06.000 I'm dedicating my life to defeating the DNC regime.
00:29:09.000 I'm going to do my best, and I hope you guys can help me alongside of this, is that I'm going to do my best to not talk about Joe Biden for the next year and a half on this program and to talk about how we're running up against the DNC regime.
00:29:21.000 We're running up against a cartel.
00:29:24.000 Joe Biden, it's not about him.
00:29:26.000 It's not about if he can talk or can't talk or all this.
00:29:28.000 It doesn't matter.
00:29:29.000 They have created a system where they think they can plug and place anybody.
00:29:32.000 They can plug and place literally.
00:29:35.000 I mean, I'm not saying this sarcastically, like Jimmy Carter.
00:29:42.000 They want it to be where everyone is replaceable.
00:29:44.000 It is the Borg.
00:29:45.000 Where at the Republican side, we're definitely more in the spirit of the quote-unquote representative tradition of American elections.
00:29:56.000 They want replaceable parts.
00:29:58.000 This is assembly line politics is what they want.
00:30:02.000 Don't like you? 0.99
00:30:03.000 Move that in.
00:30:04.000 Stop it. 1.00
00:30:04.000 Shut up. 1.00
00:30:05.000 Suppress you. 1.00
00:30:05.000 Censor you. 1.00
00:30:06.000 And again, if you want to say, Charlie, what is the broad picture for victory?
00:30:12.000 This is why this trans stuff and this race stuff is so helpful to the oligarchs, because the trans stuff and the race stuff keeps the economic Marxists from revolt against the oligarchs running the Democrat Party. 0.65
00:30:25.000 One of the great threats to the Democrat unity, one of the great threats to Democrat harmony, is economic Marxists saying, why the heck are we now the party of BlackRock?
00:30:34.000 Why are we now the party of Goldman Sachs?
00:30:37.000 Why are we now the party of Citibank?
00:30:38.000 Why are we now the party of Wells Fargo?
00:30:40.000 Why are we now the party of Google? 0.99
00:30:42.000 No, shut up because we're trans and they're not. 1.00
00:30:44.000 We hate the other side. 1.00
00:30:44.000 They're good at that. 1.00
00:30:46.000 The trans stuff, the race stuff are veneer. 1.00
00:30:48.000 It's smokescreen to keep the energy of the activist class focused on people like me and Matt Walsh and not on the fact that the American Democrat Party has become a fascist oligarch party.
00:30:59.000 Can't say that.
00:31:01.000 So that's, I mean, I've said this before and people think I'm nuts when I see this, but I stand by it.
00:31:07.000 One of the great hopes for America is a Democrat Civil War led by economic Marxists against establishment, wealthy, white liberal Democrats. 0.57
00:31:16.000 Not the race stuff, actual economic Marxists, people that believe in fighting the bourgeoisie, people that believe that there are class dynamics, not race or gender dynamics, not the trans stuff, legit economic Marxism.
00:31:31.000 That used to be the Democrat Party, but you can't build a political machine that way.
00:31:34.000 So they said, okay, how do we keep these relentless cockroaches happy that are constantly talking about taking our money away?
00:31:41.000 Oh, we can agree on the trans stuff, the woke stuff, because if you're in charge of BlackRock, they'll let you earn billions of dollars as long as you say we can trans the kids.
00:31:49.000 You see, the woke stuff is the great peace deal.
00:31:52.000 The woke stuff is the peace deal that has been brokered between the leaders of the American Democrat Party and the activist class, where they otherwise would be at odds with one another because of class and wealth accumulation.
00:32:03.000 Now you have people on Aspen ski lifts talking about postmodern one-dimensional man, Herbert Marcuse, as long as it doesn't touch the wealth.
00:32:13.000 So the hope is, and this is exactly why AOC has become so normy and boring, is because AOC now realizes that the oxygen for the economic Marxist movement is over with.
00:32:25.000 It's done.
00:32:26.000 So the trans stuff and the race stuff and the anti-gun stuff, but the trans stuff and the race stuff in particular are veneers.
00:32:32.000 It's camouflage.
00:32:32.000 It's smokescreen that the energy of the American Democrat Party doesn't actually go after the capital flows of the oligarchs that benefit from the American Democrat Party.
00:32:42.000 If that ever can get exploited, man, we have a shot.
00:32:45.000 That's one thing.
00:32:46.000 But let me just kind of finish with this.
00:32:49.000 I'm getting a lot of emails.
00:32:50.000 People say, Charlie, you know, someone says, Charlie, you depressed me and all this.
00:32:53.000 Not everybody.
00:32:54.000 You got to tell the truth.
00:32:55.000 The truth is this.
00:32:56.000 I will repeat it again.
00:32:57.000 The DNC regime with Joe Biden as the puppet, with Joe Biden as the figurehead, with Joe Biden as whatever you want to say, is likely to win.
00:33:04.000 Vegas betting odds, they are minus 14, right?
00:33:08.000 We're 14-point underdogs, whatever.
00:33:09.000 You could use basketball, football, whatever you want to use, okay?
00:33:12.000 But let's look at the good news.
00:33:14.000 We're right now in April of 2023.
00:33:19.000 Let's fix it.
00:33:20.000 Let's go register voters. 0.98
00:33:22.000 Let's invest in the early states.
00:33:24.000 Let's not say, wow, we had this revelation in September of 24.
00:33:30.000 We now know this.
00:33:31.000 I think there's widespread agreement.
00:33:32.000 So don't take the bait.
00:33:34.000 Don't look at the shiny bright light.
00:33:35.000 Don't allow their distractions, their ventriloquism, where they're like looking at, oh, look at us.
00:33:42.000 No, no, forget it.
00:33:43.000 Instead of being depressed, be active.
00:33:45.000 Be the change you want to see in the world.
00:33:47.000 Nelson Mandela, one of the most cliche things.
00:33:49.000 But you know what?
00:33:49.000 I have a lot of respect for the activists left on.
00:33:52.000 They are relentless.
00:33:54.000 They are relentless.
00:33:56.000 They do not stop.
00:33:57.000 We need that energy.
00:33:58.000 We try to do that at turning point all the time.
00:34:00.000 It's what we do here.
00:34:01.000 Three podcasts a day, traveling the country, doing speeches, motivating people.
00:34:04.000 Let's have that attitude.
00:34:06.000 We can win in 2024.
00:34:11.000 I refuse to say we will win.
00:34:15.000 That is wholly dependent.
00:34:17.000 And if we change our attitude, change our mentality, and are honest that we are facing a leviathan that is currently the favorite.
00:34:24.000 Let's fix that.
