The Charlie Kirk Show - Will Democrats Stop Being So Liberal?

00:00:00.000 Hey everybody, an extensive conversation as we talk about what is going on with the Democrat Party.

00:00:04.000 We dive deep into the data and we won, everybody.

00:00:07.000 Just amazing.

00:00:08.000 And Hispanics are defecting from the Democrat Party.

00:00:22.000 I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.

00:00:25.000 Charlie Kirk's running the White House, folks.

00:00:29.000 I want to thank Charlie.

00:00:30.000 He's an incredible guy.

00:00:31.000 His spirit, his love of this country, he's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created, Turning Point USA. 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.

00:01:16.000 Okay, we now have a great guest, Josh Hammer.

00:01:20.000 Josh is a great man and really astute.

00:01:24.000 And Josh, welcome to the program.

00:01:26.000 Josh, I want your analysis of what happened here in the 2024 election.

00:01:31.000 What made it different from elections past?

00:01:33.000 What did we do right and what did the Democrats do wrong?

00:01:36.000 Well, Charlie, first of all, huge kudos to you and to Turning Point and the whole operation over there.

00:01:42.000 I mean, I think it's a very legitimate question as to whether or not we could have gotten the Trump vans ticket across the finish line were it not for this massive get-out-the-vote effort, this massive...

00:01:51.000 willingness to get involved in the early vote, the mail-in voting.

00:01:54.000 I mean, look, you know, we didn't choose to wage elections on this particular terrain.

00:01:58.000 In my estimation, I would prefer call it a law, constitutional amendment, whatever you have to do, make it one election day, no early voting.

00:02:05.000 If you live overseas, act the military, whatever.

00:02:07.000 But in general, not my preferred paradigm.

00:02:10.000 The point is in the aftermath of all the chaos from 2020, we had to play by their rules, whether we wanted to or not.

00:02:17.000 So huge credit to you guys And basically everyone else out there as well, the RNC, everyone involved.

00:02:23.000 I mean, this is a tremendous willingness to not play the ideal hand, but to play the hand that we were dealt.

00:02:29.000 And we have all seen the results this week.

00:02:31.000 So, look, Charlie, I'm not shocked.

00:02:34.000 I'm not shocked that Donald Trump dominated this much.

00:02:36.000 In fact, my public prediction was actually that he would win all seven of the major battleground swing states.

00:02:41.000 I am a little surprised at the extent to which the dominance extended.

00:02:46.000 I mean, there's so many data points to possibly look at here.

00:02:49.000 I mean, Star County, Texas, the most Hispanic county in America, 97% Hispanic county, largely Mexican.

00:02:55.000 Donald Trump winning that county by 16 points.

00:02:57.000 Are you kidding me?

00:02:58.000 You know, major urban corridors, Queens County, New York.

00:03:01.000 I mean, like Queens.

00:03:02.000 I mean, like the New York Mets LaGuardia Airport.

00:03:04.000 Queens shifting 20 to 22 points towards Trump from 2020.

00:03:09.000 Donald Trump outright winning Miami-Dade County right here in Florida, where I live, a 70% Hispanic county, the most populous county in Florida.

00:03:15.000 I mean, winning the national popular vote, the first time a Republican has done that since George W. Bush 2004 and likely going to end up winning so by an even larger margin than Bush did know for.

00:03:25.000 I mean, this is historic stuff.

00:03:26.000 46% of the national Hispanic vote there.

00:03:29.000 Basically, every element of this multi-ethnic working class coalition that conservative talkers and pundits and thinkers have talked about for years, it basically all came together.

00:03:40.000 I mean, this was the culmination of the political realignment, basically.

00:03:43.000 And I think you have seen the death of The long overdue death of the 2008 Barack Obama intersectional coalition.

00:03:50.000 We have witnessed this week the death of Obamaism.

00:03:53.000 Now, it was a long time coming.

00:03:55.000 You saw a lot of these seeds back in 2020, possibly even a little bit before then.

00:03:59.000 But all the pieces are finally coming together.

00:04:01.000 And I think for the Democrats, Charlie, the Democrats really, really, if they're going to be intellectually honest, which they typically aren't, they need to really spend some serious time looking in the mirror and just pausing and engaging in some very sober introspection as to how their policies and their political ideology they need to really spend some serious time looking in the mirror and just pausing and engaging in some very sober introspection as to

00:04:26.000 I mean, I saw some polling internally that apparently that transgender ad that the Trump campaign ran where he had Kamala on, it was apparently a 2.7 percentage point shift from one ad.

00:04:38.000 I mean, that's incredible.

00:04:39.000 And that right there just encapsulates how out of touch they are.

00:04:42.000 Well, let me say a couple things on that ad.

00:04:43.000 Number one, this is why I think Suzy Wiles should be chief of staff, and I've said this now publicly.

00:04:47.000 Suzy Wiles went with her gut here. 0.98

00:04:49.000 And some of the consultants, this is a true story, Blake.

00:04:52.000 These super smart, hocus-pocus consultants said...

00:04:56.000 I don't know, running on the trans thing, just focus on economy.

00:05:00.000 And Susie and the team said, this is bigger.

00:05:02.000 They said, number one, we're trying to frame her as she is a radical liberal. 1.00

00:05:09.000 The trans thing for people in the middle of the Midwest, it's not popular, but it involved illegal immigrants.

00:05:20.000 So it's narrative immigration, and that immigrants get special treatment to such the extent, That your taxpayer dollars chop off their private parts. 0.68

00:05:30.000 Blake?

00:05:31.000 It perfectly ropes in so many things.

00:05:33.000 Can we get the ad, please, Ryan?

00:05:34.000 I talked to someone who, first of all, they were making fun of Trump's debate performance because they were in a lib circle that made fun of him saying that illegal immigrants in prison, all of that.

00:05:45.000 And then I pointed out, you know this is real, right?

00:05:48.000 And I produced a link to it.

00:05:49.000 And he's like, okay, well, it's not that big of a deal.

00:05:51.000 How often is this happening?

00:05:53.000 But it's not how often it happens.

00:05:56.000 It's like if you learned that Kamala ate babies or something in private. 0.93

00:06:02.000 It's not that it was a lot of babies.

00:06:03.000 One is enough.

00:06:05.000 So to do something that demented, import someone illegally into America so you can do novel medical practices on them while they're in prison.

00:06:15.000 It's so demented.

00:06:16.000 It's so deranged.

00:06:17.000 We talked about this before the election.

00:06:19.000 One of our biggest problems was the left was so insane that voters would not believe it.

00:06:25.000 And it looks like this got through.

00:06:27.000 Oh, they're really nuts, aren't they?

00:06:30.000 Yeah, and then what they did, the Trump campaign is so smart, they doubled up with the ad.

00:06:37.000 With Charlemagne the God's reaction.

00:06:39.000 Yeah.

00:06:40.000 So they did the ad, and then they, Charlemagne, you know, whatever, the guy from Breakfast Club, and then they doubled up with his reaction, showing that not only is this crazy, but like regular everyday people think it's out of control, it's nuts.

00:06:51.000 And Josh, doesn't that go to show that this Trump campaign, there was zero, I want to be clear, there was zero consultant data that showed this was a good idea, except a gut instinct from Trump's inner circle.

00:07:05.000 Pretty cool.

00:07:06.000 Yeah, very cool.

00:07:07.000 I mean, it's kind of just common sense, though, isn't it?

00:07:10.000 I mean, the transgender issue is an issue that polling has been 75-25, maybe 70-30, depending on the poll, the way you want to phrase it.

00:07:19.000 I mean, the notion that U.S. taxpayer dollars should go to anyone to basically try to cut off your genitalia, chemical castration for inmates, for minors, for anyone— It is a ludicrous proposition.

00:07:32.000 But, you know, people internally at the Kamala Harris campaign, I think this is the key point, people internally, they heard the warning flags.

00:07:39.000 Apparently, Bill Clinton told the Kamala Harris campaign, said, you guys have to answer for this.

00:07:43.000 And the Kamala Harris people were like, what are you talking about?

00:07:45.000 This makes no difference.

00:07:46.000 Because they live in a bubble.

00:07:47.000 Because they live in an echo chamber of all echo chambers.

00:07:51.000 I mean, they're listening to all the blue-checked lefties, Vox, Jezebel, all these stupid left-wing sites and these consultancies, ActBlue. 0.79

00:08:00.000 I mean, they just talk among themselves, and they literally still think that you are just a racist, sexist, bigot, homophobe, transphobe, xenophobe, whatever, for not indulging the fantasy, as Blake just said, of like a double or triple intersectional unicorn fart issue of bringing in a bunch of illegals and then taxpayers subsidizing, chopping off their healthy prices.

00:08:18.000 It's just a mess.

00:08:19.000 It is a total mess.

00:08:20.000 So common sense, visceral good instincts there.

00:08:23.000 You know, look, it's just a remarkable success story, Charlie.

00:08:27.000 And obviously a lot of other issues are relevant in this election as well.

00:08:29.000 That's not the only one there.

00:08:30.000 But that ad to me, it encapsulates everything.

00:08:33.000 All right, let's play cut 297. 0.82

00:08:36.000 They spent, I think, $60 million on this ad.

00:08:42.000 So smart.

00:08:43.000 Play cut 297.

00:08:44.000 Kamala supports taxpayer funded sex changes for prisoners.

00:08:48.000 Surgery.

00:08:49.000 For prisoners.

00:08:51.000 Every transgender inmate in the prison system would have access. 0.55

00:08:51.000 For prisoners. 0.55

00:08:57.000 Hell no, I don't want my taxpayer dollars going to that.

00:08:59.000 Kamala supports transgender sex changes in jail with our money. 1.00

00:09:02.000 Kamala even supports letting biological men compete against our girls and their sports. 1.00

00:09:08.000 Kamala is for they, them. 1.00

00:09:10.000 President Trump is for you.

00:09:12.000 I'm Donald J. Trump and I approve this message.

00:09:14.000 So that was the second one.

00:09:16.000 That was the sequel, Blake.

00:09:17.000 Yeah, I really love the they-them thing. 0.92

00:09:20.000 I think that's an underrated part of it.

00:09:21.000 I agree.

00:09:22.000 It's not just that that evokes the transgender issues.

00:09:24.000 It also evokes, like, if you're a white-collar worker, you've had to sit through people putting their pronouns at the bottom of emails, asking you for that stuff.

00:09:24.000 It's so smart.

00:09:32.000 I totally agree.

00:09:33.000 You think of the language policing.

00:09:34.000 If you're a college student, you've run into that language policing everywhere.

00:09:38.000 And so it's bringing in so many things.

00:09:40.000 It's bringing in you're scared for your kids.

00:09:42.000 It's bringing in you're scared about the border.

00:09:44.000 It's bringing in the left are these obnoxious, moralizing scolds. 0.94

00:09:49.000 And it all comes together in, you know, one 30-second ad.

00:09:52.000 Josh, plug your stuff, please, really quick.

00:09:53.000 20 seconds.

00:09:55.000 Yeah, Charlie, always great to join you.

00:09:56.000 So I'm on xjosh__hammer.

00:09:58.000 Instagram is joshbhammer.

00:09:59.000 I host America on Trial with Josh Hammer and also the Josh Hammer Show.

00:10:03.000 Charlie, once again, congratulations to you in Turning Point for your huge role in this.

00:10:06.000 It was a tremendous success.

00:10:08.000 Just a great, great week for these United States.

00:10:10.000 Well, look, you know who deserves the congratulations?

00:10:12.000 The country does.

00:10:13.000 We just played a small role.

00:10:14.000 We did our job despite a lot of people trying to take us out, a lot of Republican operatives cheering us for our demise.

00:10:21.000 And we kept our head down while everyone else was too busy on Twitter.

00:10:24.000 We were putting ballots in boxes.

00:10:28.000 This year I've given you so many reasons to try balance of nature, but I've got one you cannot ignore.

00:11:30.000 Donald Trump is gaining steam in Arizona right now.

00:11:32.000 It's incredible.

00:11:33.000 We were just talking about this before we gave it on.

00:11:36.000 I think without our efforts, it would have looked a lot more like Pennsylvania or Wisconsin for Trump.

00:11:45.000 In Arizona?

00:11:45.000 I don't even know.

00:11:48.000 A point.

00:11:49.000 Maybe.

00:11:49.000 Maybe within a point.

00:11:50.000 Maybe.

00:11:51.000 And with ours, with the data that we're coming back, I'm so excited to see the final data, Charlie, because I think we're going to be like at 210, 220 of our universe.

00:11:59.000 That's unbelievable.

00:12:00.000 And it's really unbelievable.

00:12:01.000 So in Arizona, everybody, national update, we still have 30% of all of our votes outstanding.

00:12:06.000 Let's put 298 up.

00:12:08.000 There's still 584,000 votes left in Maricopa.

00:12:12.000 174,000, 175,000 votes left in Pima.

00:12:15.000 27,000 votes left in Cochise.

00:12:17.000 62,000 votes left in Yabapai.

00:12:19.000 20,000 votes left in Mojave.

00:12:21.000 What is going on here, Tyler?

00:12:22.000 Let's throw it up.

00:12:23.000 Oh, you got it off screen.

00:12:24.000 Yeah.

00:12:24.000 So Maricopa County has an estimated 584.

00:12:28.000 There's some suggestions that it's closer to 700,000.

00:12:33.000 Doesn't make sense.

00:12:34.000 Not really right.

00:12:36.000 So, just for everybody's awareness here, Apache's the bad place. 1.00

00:12:40.000 So, you're basically losing 75% of those 13,000.

00:12:43.000 And that's where Navajo Nation is.

00:12:44.000 That's Navajo Nation, and we have a historic amount of...

00:12:47.000 Hilariously, Navajo Nation's in Apache County, not Navajo County.

00:12:51.000 Yeah, exactly.

00:12:53.000 Well, Navajo Nation goes through Navajo County.

00:12:55.000 But it's largely in Apache.

00:12:56.000 That's right.

00:12:57.000 So they call that Nav-Apache.

00:13:00.000 The combination of the two is Navajo, Apache.

00:13:03.000 But you have the Apache tribe that's there.

00:13:05.000 That's why it's called Apache.

00:13:06.000 So the Apache tribe is in the dead center of Navajo Nation. 0.99

00:13:09.000 And they're a really unique tribe because they're protected, surrounded by the Navajo.

00:13:15.000 You've got Gila, which is deep red, 5,500 votes.

00:13:18.000 The vast majority, 75% of those are going to go to Trump and Kerry.

00:13:21.000 You have Graham County, also similar to Gila.

00:13:25.000 That's the home of Eastern Arizona College.

00:13:26.000 It's a historically rural Mormon outpost.

00:13:30.000 What's the name of it?

00:13:31.000 What is it?

00:13:31.000 Graham County.

00:13:32.000 Eastern Arizona College.

00:13:34.000 I'm going to visit there at some point.

00:13:36.000 It's one of the most conservative colleges in Arizona.

00:13:38.000 We actually had a really good rally there.

00:13:41.000 It's publicly funded, right?

00:13:43.000 It's publicly funded.

00:13:44.000 It's basically like a community college for Graham County.

00:13:47.000 It's the Graham County Community College.

00:13:48.000 That's awesome.

00:13:49.000 Highly Mormon.

00:13:50.000 It's basically like a tiny little Brigham Young University.

00:13:54.000 Tons of people go there.

00:13:56.000 I will go visit there one time.

00:13:58.000 Wilcox area, that's there.

00:13:59.000 That whole part of the state I've never been in, you know that, right?

00:14:01.000 Well, it's hard to get to because there's mountains that are right there outside of Pinal, so you have to go down and around to get to it.

00:14:07.000 So either you have to intentionally get to it.

00:14:09.000 And they have Mount Graham, right?

00:14:11.000 I think that's in Graham County, yeah.

00:14:12.000 It's right there on the border.

00:14:14.000 And then you have Pima County, which is going to be really bad for us, but right now the last drops have broken 50-50, which is really good for us.

00:14:24.000 So that's a bad county.

00:14:25.000 Kerry can maintain getting 50-50 there, and then the rest of the state is basically...

00:14:30.000 It's basically red.

00:14:32.000 Now, in Coconino, it's going to be not good either.

00:14:34.000 So Coconino, Apache... 0.99

00:14:36.000 And Pima.

00:14:36.000 And Pima are your red alert places where we get to see what comes in.

00:14:41.000 Not very many votes left in Coconino or Apache.

00:14:44.000 Maricopa County is...

00:14:46.000 Look, if you can break Maricopa County basically in half, 50-50, if you can keep Pima County to 50-50, the rest of the state's going to get you to...

00:14:54.000 Well, she'll do better than 50-50 with what's remaining in Maricopa.

00:14:57.000 You think so?

00:14:58.000 So if she does, Charlie, you've got Senator Lake.

00:15:02.000 Well, hold on.

00:15:02.000 Let's do the math here.

00:15:04.000 You keep going.

00:15:05.000 I'm going to fact check you.

00:15:06.000 You keep going.

00:15:06.000 Yeah.

00:15:07.000 I mean, hear what I was saying.

00:15:08.000 So this is my prediction if we go through all the counties real quick.

00:15:11.000 We'll start in Mojave and work our way down to the bottom right.

00:15:14.000 Mojave, we're going to win 75% of those votes left.

00:15:20.000 Coconino, we're going to lose 70% of those votes.

00:15:23.000 Navajo, we're going to win 60% of those votes.

00:15:26.000 Apache, we're going to lose 75% of those votes.

00:15:29.000 Yavapai, we're going to win 70% of those votes.

00:15:32.000 Gila County, we're going to win 65% of those votes.

00:15:35.000 How many total votes are outstanding right now?

00:15:38.000 The total is about a million, a little over a million.

00:15:41.000 Okay, yeah, so I mean, okay, I'm just doing the math here.

00:15:45.000 I'm looking at that college you mentioned, by the way.

00:15:47.000 In 2020, at least, it went for Trump's 78%.

00:15:51.000 How cool is that?

00:15:52.000 It is a great, great college.

00:15:54.000 Thatcher, Arizona.

00:15:55.000 Thatcher and Wilcox are our little Mormon outposts.

00:15:59.000 You have Pinal County, which is great.

00:16:02.000 We still have 23,000 ballots left, 24,000 ballots left in Pinal.

00:16:06.000 Those are going to go 70% for carry.

00:16:09.000 Yuma, you're going to have at least 60% go for carry.

00:16:13.000 Santa Cruz and Pima, which is basically the Pima-Santa Cruz conjunction here.

00:16:18.000 That's going to be a real big question mark.

00:16:20.000 So what happens in Pima, what happens in Maricopa, and how that offsets one another is going to be...

00:16:26.000 So it's really interesting.

00:16:28.000 There's 217,000 good ballots, rural ballots left.

00:16:31.000 There's 199,000 Pima, Apache, Coconino ballots.

00:16:38.000 Do you think the rurals will outperform the bad counties?

00:16:42.000 Yeah, right now they are, yeah.

00:16:44.000 Right now they are, by about 10 points.

00:16:46.000 Okay, so you think the rules will, you'll be getting net 10 points out of those remaining belts?

00:16:51.000 If we net 5 points and Maricopa breaks even, you have a Senator Lake.

00:16:57.000 Yeah, well if you net 10% of it, eh, that's not totally right.

00:17:01.000 It's close.

00:17:02.000 I'll show you the math in a second.

00:17:03.000 It's very close.

00:17:03.000 All right, I've been a little bit of a skeptic here for Tyler on the Cary Lake comeback tour, and I just did the numbers, and it's going to be way closer.

00:17:11.000 Okay, I have my math.

00:17:12.000 Blake, I want you to fact check it.

00:17:13.000 Let's go to the—you do have the outstanding ballots uncounted?

00:17:17.000 Yeah, we're looking at the outstanding ballots.

00:17:18.000 You don't have to do this live on air.

00:17:19.000 While I talk to Matt, you do this.

00:17:21.000 Here's the assumption.

00:17:22.000 Maricopa breaks even, even though she's winning it slightly.

00:17:25.000 So let's just go worst-case scenario.

00:17:26.000 Mm-hmm.

00:17:27.000 Coconino, Pima, and Apache perform as they currently are.

00:17:31.000 Okay.

00:17:32.000 Okay?

00:17:32.000 And that the rurals will perform 70% for Carrie, which is actually lower than how they're performing.

00:17:38.000 Okay.

00:17:38.000 We'll run those numbers.

00:17:39.000 That's a fair number.

00:17:40.000 And she is 53,000 votes down.

00:17:42.000 So do all of that and tell me what the number is.

00:17:45.000 Well, we have to set this up because I'm leaving and I'm going to come back.

00:17:48.000 I've got to get to our guest.

00:17:49.000 The setup was that I said that all she has to do is break America up. 0.73

00:17:52.000 You said, there's no way.

00:17:54.000 Do you know why I said no way?

00:17:56.000 It's because usually the rules are in quicker.

00:17:57.000 The point of this formula is that it's true.

00:17:59.000 So we have Matt Towery.

00:18:01.000 Is that right, Andrew?

00:18:02.000 Okay, Matt, welcome to the program.

00:18:04.000 We shared a Fox News screen last night, and thank you for those kind words.

00:18:08.000 Matt, credit to you.

00:18:09.000 Your polling has become the gold standard.

00:18:11.000 You saw this race correctly. 1.00

00:18:13.000 Congratulations and welcome to the program.

00:18:15.000 Well, thank you, Charlie.

00:18:17.000 I'm on the fly today.

00:18:18.000 I hope you can hear me well.

00:18:20.000 I really wanted to join you.

00:18:21.000 It's a pleasure.

00:18:21.000 And by the way, I just want to again say what I told Laura's listeners and viewers last night, and that is you did a fantastic job, and everyone knows that you A lot of folks say they're going to get turnout going and they're going to do this and that, but you delivered, and that was a big part of that victory, so congratulations.

00:18:38.000 That means a lot, Matt, and a lot of people doubted us, but we worked hard.

00:18:42.000 Thank you.

00:18:43.000 Matt, from a polling standpoint, what are the top-line takeaways, and someone who does this professionally, what surprised you the most this election?

00:18:53.000 Well, it really wasn't a surprise.

00:18:55.000 It was an execution.

00:18:56.000 The Trump campaign said they were going to go after low-propensity voters, in other words, people who are registered, or may not even be registered, but who don't vote but could vote and would vote for Trump.

00:19:07.000 And with your help and other groups, they did it.

00:19:10.000 And I guess the second thing that was not a surprise to me because our polling showed it, but the African-American males broke, I think, more than the exit polls show.

00:19:19.000 They show about 24% for Trump.

00:19:21.000 I think it's probably even higher.

00:19:23.000 And that kept these cities like Atlanta and Philadelphia and so many others from supplying a victory for Harris because she just was underperforming and the turnout was light as well. 0.99

00:19:35.000 The African-American community just was not excited by her.

00:19:38.000 I could go on and on.

00:19:40.000 I think that in general, you were kind to talk about my polling.

00:19:45.000 I mean, you know, we have great pollsters like my friend Robert Cahillie at Trafalgar.

00:19:51.000 Emerson, Fox News does some good work.

00:19:53.000 But as you know, the polling snobs like Nate Silver and FiveThirtyEight always treat the other pollsters as if they're the gold standard, even though we usually have the lowest error rate.

00:20:04.000 So I was just thankful.

00:20:06.000 Listen, I was thankful the way the race went, and I was thankful that we got it right for the most part. 1.00

00:20:12.000 Well, it's just incredible.

00:20:13.000 And so what would you say for a Democrat trying to learn from this election, what was one of their operating assumptions that they got most wrong, that was their biggest miss, where they tried to build a theory of the case?

00:20:29.000 What were one of their assumptions that was incorrect?

00:20:32.000 Well, I think it was more strategic than anything else.

00:20:34.000 They felt like if you built a campaign based on celebrity and people who are popular to the general public, that you could somehow transfer their popularity and turn it into votes and turnout.

00:20:47.000 And it was a miserable failure.

00:20:49.000 They had Barack Obama chide African-American men for considering voting for Trump.

00:20:55.000 That backfired on them.

00:20:56.000 They used every name they could to attend their rallies.

00:21:00.000 They even ditched a rally to go do Saturday Night Live.

00:21:03.000 None of that worked.

00:21:04.000 It was all a complete backfire.

00:21:06.000 And so there's Donald Trump staying with the people, getting people fired up, talking about the real issues.

00:21:12.000 And I'll say one other thing.

00:21:13.000 The other mistake they made is they treat it in law school.

00:21:16.000 I remember there's this case of the man with the eggshell skull.

00:21:20.000 And the question is, if the doctor operates on it, the skull is going to shatter.

00:21:23.000 But if he doesn't, the person's going to die.

00:21:25.000 I was famous in my torts class in law school.

00:21:29.000 Well, they treated her like she was a candidate with the eggshell skull. 1.00

00:21:32.000 They would not put her out.

00:21:33.000 They wouldn't let anyone ask tough questions.

00:21:36.000 And as a result, she came across to the public as being not serious and not capable of leading on issues like Donald Trump.

00:21:43.000 And I think those strategic errors are probably part of the reason why she lost it.

00:21:47.000 So as the Trump campaign looks backwards and they see the states where they performed the best, for example, Nevada, how can Republicans turn Nevada into a red state?

00:22:01.000 What are the lessons we learn from turning Nevada, Donald Trump winning it, which is, I believe, the first time Donald Trump has ever won Nevada.

00:22:08.000 First time.

00:22:09.000 And the first time a Republican since 2004.

00:22:11.000 I think Bush won it.

00:22:11.000 Yep.

00:22:12.000 Right?

00:22:13.000 Am I correct, Matt?

00:22:14.000 I think he might have won it in...

00:22:17.000 16, but I'm not sure.

00:22:18.000 Don't owe me to that.

00:22:19.000 I've got a lot of numbers floating in my head.

00:22:21.000 And like you, Charlie, I've not had a whole lot of sleep.

00:22:23.000 So let's assume that he didn't.

00:22:25.000 Yeah, I just looked at it.

00:22:27.000 He did not win Nevada in 2016.

00:22:29.000 So that's okay.

00:22:30.000 But I believe it was the first time since 2004.

00:22:35.000 Let me just fact check that.

00:22:37.000 Yeah, Bush won Nevada in 2004.

00:22:38.000 So first time in 20 years.

00:22:40.000 Don't worry, I'm on no sleep too.

00:22:42.000 What can we learn from the Nevada victory and extrapolate that to turn Nevada into a red state?

00:22:50.000 Well, the first thing was, of course, Trump performed much better with the Hispanic community than in the past.

00:22:56.000 And that was showing up in our cross stats.

00:22:58.000 That was critical.

00:22:59.000 And I think part of that was that the Democrats blatantly tried to go the other way when it came to just, in general, their religious beliefs and their family core values.

00:23:10.000 And I think that was a big part of this shift.

00:23:13.000 The other part had to do with the working person.

00:23:15.000 You know, when Trump said, and I thought it was brilliant, we're not going to tax tips.

00:23:19.000 Of course, she did the Me Too thing. 0.81

00:23:21.000 Three weeks later, she said, oh, Me Too, I won't tax them either.

00:23:25.000 But that was done.

00:23:26.000 That was copyrighted, in essence, when he said it in the minds of the voters.

00:23:30.000 I think the combination is that we need to appeal to their core values, stop all this wackiness that's going on that they just see as crazy.

00:23:41.000 But we also have to appeal to the working values of people in states like Nevada, And he did it.

00:23:47.000 You know, that union there has tremendous strength.

00:23:50.000 And in fact, when they vote, the union sort of tracks the guys and gals who work at the facinos, because, you know, that's a lot of the vote.

00:23:59.000 They're strong on them.

00:24:00.000 So I've been told, in my opinion, I put it that way, that they weren't effective because these people had decided That they knew that Trump was going to look after them and she wasn't.

00:24:10.000 So I think appealing to working people and appealing to their values without making overly, you know, it's not about one religion or another.

00:24:19.000 It's more about the values of the family and the values of hard work.

00:24:25.000 Hey everybody, Charlie Kirk here.

00:25:26.000 Go to ruffgreens.com slash Kirk, ruffgreens.com slash Kirk.

00:25:33.000 And so Donald Trump sweeps all seven battleground states in just historic and amazing fashion.

00:25:40.000 We saw gains with younger voters, with black voters, as you mentioned, Hispanic voters, young families.

00:25:46.000 Almost every single county across the country, despite a couple, have gone far to the right.

00:25:51.000 And now we are looking at Arizona.

00:25:55.000 Arizona, which of course we're headquartered, is the best performing of all the swing states.

00:26:00.000 And it's only growing.

00:26:01.000 Donald Trump is on pace to win Arizona by almost seven to eight points, where we are headquartered and put a lot of work into it.

00:26:08.000 The margins are remarkable here.

00:26:11.000 And the Democrats, you have to wonder if they really saw it coming.

00:26:14.000 I want to talk about just really quick, Matt, about a couple minutes remaining, the polling industry.

00:26:18.000 How did the polling industry get it so wrong? 0.70

00:26:22.000 It seems as if they're more ideological than analytical.

00:26:25.000 Well, there's another secret, Charlie.

00:26:27.000 And I mentioned this on Laura's show last night.

00:26:30.000 Firms like Insider Advantage, my firm, Trafalgar, we have a way of interviewing people where it's more anonymous.

00:26:38.000 You don't have someone on the other end of the phone who is imposing their dialect or where they're from or their attitude that causes you not to want to tell someone how you're thinking.

00:26:52.000 And so the way we do it, and they have a different way at Trafalgar, but it works as well, We gather this information, and we're able to get the shy Trump voter, which is definitely an issue now, to respond to us.

00:27:03.000 Now, let me just say this.

00:27:05.000 All pollsters is a hard job.

00:27:07.000 And I said last night on Laura's show, I play golf, not great, but 45-foot putt being made by a professional, the odds are about 4% he's going to make it.

00:27:16.000 And we've got to stay within that 4% margin of error, or we get beaten up.

00:27:20.000 So imagine getting up every day and having to make 45-foot putts and be within 4 inches.

00:27:25.000 So it's a hard deal.

00:27:26.000 But I think one of the things is these, quote, gold standard pollsters are using old methods, and all they get are primarily Democrats.

00:27:34.000 They have to really weight up the Republicans, and the Republicans they get are not necessarily the ones who are voting, and they certainly won't tell them how they're going to vote.

00:27:42.000 So they've got an inherent problem.

00:27:43.000 It's in their weighting, but it's more in the way they collect their data in the first place.

00:27:47.000 Yeah, it's just the polling industry is remarkably well funded.

00:27:53.000 And I mean, in the sense where people give it a lot of money and a lot of trust.

00:27:57.000 And it's just, it's really something else.

00:28:02.000 In closing, Matt, final reflections here on this historic presidential cycle.

00:28:06.000 Well, my reflection is that this is one of the best run campaigns on the part of the Trump side that I've ever seen.

00:28:12.000 I've been doing this since 1980.

00:28:14.000 I know I sound like an old man now.

00:28:17.000 Working with Newt Gingrich and Mack Mattingly, my former boss in the U.S. Senate, when they got elected in 1980 and that historic landslide for Reagan against Carter.

00:28:26.000 I think it was much like that Reagan election.

00:28:28.000 You're seeing senators brought into the table who weren't going to win.

00:28:32.000 He had a coattail effect for once that was substantial.

00:28:35.000 I just think, Charlie, it all came together.

00:28:37.000 I mean, with groups like yours, and that was so critical, getting these young people to vote.

00:28:43.000 And we see it in the exit polls.

00:28:44.000 What a fantastic job you guys did.

00:28:46.000 It just all came together.

00:28:47.000 Sometimes in politics, it all comes together, and sometimes nothing comes together.

00:28:52.000 So relish the moment, man.

00:28:54.000 This is a great win.

00:28:56.000 Very good.

00:28:56.000 Matt, thank you so much.

00:28:57.000 Really appreciate it.

00:28:58.000 Thank you.

00:28:59.000 Thank you, Charlie.

00:29:00.000 Nice to talk to you.

00:29:01.000 Blake, have you crunched some of the numbers?

00:29:02.000 I've crunched the numbers.

00:29:03.000 But I don't...

00:29:04.000 I agree.

00:29:05.000 I think I said 70-30 on the rules, not 75-25.

00:29:08.000 But even that, so it's like Pinal.

00:29:10.000 We have a lot out of Pinal.

00:29:11.000 Pinal is 56-42 right now.

00:29:13.000 Correct, but it is getting redder.

00:29:14.000 I don't know the full shape of that.

00:29:15.000 If it's getting better, that's great.

00:29:16.000 But 75-25, 70-30 is...

00:29:18.000 So how much would your model say if we win the rules by 70-30?

00:29:23.000 70-30, then it'd be really close, and that's assuming the Pinal ratio holds, and as we say, Apache all down, and Maricopa 50-50.

00:29:32.000 What if we win Maricopa 51-49?

00:29:35.000 That gives us a lot of give.

00:29:37.000 All right, I can actually call some of these races because I know it better than New York Times does.

00:29:41.000 The California stuff is so wacky.

00:29:43.000 You think you're winning, right, Blake?

00:29:44.000 And all of a sudden, like, over two weeks.

00:29:45.000 There's a really funny one is that they'll have us, if you go to New York Times, it'll say 209 Republicans.

00:29:49.000 But one of them that's funny is they haven't called Washington District 4 because it's super-duper close.

00:29:54.000 It is a race between two Republicans.

00:29:57.000 Oh, okay.

00:29:57.000 So they haven't called the winner.

00:29:58.000 Got it.

00:29:58.000 Okay, so let me just go.

00:30:00.000 So right now, New York Times is at 2-9.

00:30:02.000 So watch this, okay?

00:30:03.000 This is going to be great.

00:30:04.000 So Washington is 2-10.

00:30:05.000 Yep.

00:30:06.000 Okay.

00:30:07.000 Eli Crane will win.

00:30:08.000 So that's 2-11.

00:30:11.000 Begich will win in Alaska.

00:30:12.000 That is 2-12.

00:30:14.000 Schweikert will win.

00:30:15.000 That's my guy.

00:30:15.000 He's doing well.

00:30:16.000 That's 2-13.

00:30:18.000 Bacon will win.

00:30:19.000 That is 215.

00:30:21.000 Siskamani will win.

00:30:22.000 That is 216.

00:30:23.000 And Marionette Miller-Meeks will win. 1.00

00:30:25.000 That's 217.

00:30:26.000 And then we need one of the Californias to break. 1.00

00:30:32.000 And...

00:30:33.000 We've currently got, let me look at some of these, Scott Bouts super close.

00:30:37.000 Young Kim is up by 17.

00:30:39.000 She would have to lose the mail-in votes.

00:30:41.000 I can say confidently that we're going to pick up two or three from Orange County because they're incumbents as well.

00:30:46.000 So we're going to keep the house, but it will probably be a three or four seat majority.

00:30:49.000 Yeah, you would need to lose the mail-in vote in District 40 by about 35-40 to drop that Young Kim race. 1.00

00:30:59.000 But they're also, where's Kent?

00:31:01.000 Is Kent in that Washington 4?

00:31:03.000 Kent is Washington's 3rd District.

00:31:05.000 He's down 4 with 82% in.

00:31:08.000 No, but why was Cliff so bullish that that was going to go our way?

00:31:14.000 I can't remember the specific reasons he gave.

00:31:17.000 I think a lot of our guys are trained to hope springs eternal, be aggressive.

00:31:23.000 Maybe.

00:31:23.000 Let me take a look at that race here.

00:31:26.000 Because I'm looking there.

00:31:27.000 I can click on that one too.

00:31:29.000 The votes remaining are in Clark County, which is blue.

00:31:35.000 They say that there's a ton of votes outstanding.

00:31:38.000 I don't see that.

00:31:39.000 Because they have it even also just by the counties or districts, and if you look at where the vote is in in that one, it's 76% in is the lowest amount, and it's the area around Vancouver, which is the bluest part, whereas if you look at the parts that are red on the map, those are 90-95% in.

00:31:58.000 I think it'll be pretty tough to pick up that district.

00:32:02.000 I'm not the pro.

00:32:03.000 I'm not the campaign pro.

00:32:03.000 I'm just going off what the New York Times website has.

00:32:06.000 So again, that goes to 210 with Washington, to 11 with Eli Crane, to...

00:32:14.000 12 with Begich, 213 with Schweikert, 214 with Bacon, 215 with Siskimani, 216 with Marinette Miller-Meeks, and then you need two of the Californias to break.

00:32:28.000 If you just want to run through the list, I'm looking here, so we're at 209, 210 if you count that Washington one that is already there.

00:32:34.000 It's very weird.

00:32:35.000 And then if you just look at the ones we're in the lead right now, you'd be 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21.

00:32:46.000 And then you also have Bacon's district there.

00:32:48.000 You're going to lose some of these California.

00:32:49.000 We're going to lose some of them.

00:32:51.000 Some of them are really close.

00:32:53.000 It's insanely close in Maine, too.

00:32:56.000 I don't know if there's any prospect for that improving.

00:32:58.000 He's declared victory, unfortunately.

00:33:00.000 Yeah, that's too bad.

00:33:02.000 Oregon District 5, we're down.

00:33:04.000 However, Maryland 6 is within 384 votes.

00:33:07.000 That is amazing.

00:33:08.000 That's a really good one.

00:33:09.000 He's a good candidate, too.

00:33:11.000 So that one could flip.

00:33:13.000 I think we're going to end up around like 221 seats.

00:33:16.000 Which is about the same as last time.

00:33:18.000 That's a three-seat majority.

00:33:19.000 Yeah.

00:33:20.000 Man, I want to take back Alaska.

00:33:21.000 It's such nonsense that we lost that one.

00:33:23.000 No, no, we're winning it back.

00:33:25.000 That's baggage.

00:33:26.000 Yep.

00:33:26.000 Up four right now.

00:33:28.000 Yeah, but again, they've got to fly in votes from the rules.

00:33:32.000 Okay.

00:33:33.000 I mean, look, by the way, we have low hopes for the House as it is, right?

00:33:37.000 Yeah, they were giving us 80% odds of losing it going in.

00:33:40.000 So that's the Trump coattails.

00:33:42.000 We have to figure out a long-term plan, Blake, of how we can win back old House margins.

00:33:46.000 I think it's a fundraising problem.

00:33:47.000 It's a candidate recruitment problem, right?

00:33:49.000 It's just a lot of...

00:33:50.000 It's a lot of the problem.

00:33:52.000 It's very clear there's a lot of people who just go in and they're like, I'm only voting for Trump!

00:33:56.000 And then they fill it out and put it in the box.

00:33:59.000 You have to be like, guys, Trump will be a better president when you give him a governing margin.

00:34:04.000 Yes, you live by the low prop, you die by the low prop, right?

00:34:09.000 But Dave McCormick, to his credit, was able to get those across the finish line.

00:34:13.000 It's a goofy race.

00:34:14.000 Bob Casey says that there's a path from the victory.

00:34:18.000 What path is he talking about?

00:34:20.000 It looks like they're out of votes.

00:34:21.000 So I'd be super curious what Bob Casey is talking about.

00:34:24.000 Maybe a provisional fight?

00:34:26.000 But right now, Dave McCormick is up 31,000 votes in Pennsylvania, and I think every single county has fully reported in Pennsylvania.

00:34:35.000 So that would be a pickup.

00:34:36.000 That would get us to 53 Senate seats.

00:34:38.000 And let's see what Magic Cary Lake can do in Arizona. 0.99

00:34:42.000 Because Sam Brown's not looking too great.

00:34:44.000 Sam Brown, just too much mail vote, arrives late.

00:34:47.000 All right.

00:34:47.000 Email us, freedom at charliekirk.com.

00:34:49.000 We also withstood a Democrat-funded nonsensical campaign in Nebraska.

00:34:53.000 Deb Fisher ended up winning by eight points, which is really, really good.

00:34:57.000 Really happy about that.

00:34:58.000 And of course, Tim Sheehy, eight point win.

00:35:00.000 Eight point win against John Tester.

00:35:02.000 It turns out the polling was right.

00:35:03.000 Are you ready to lose weight but not sure where to start?

00:35:07.000 I understand.

00:35:08.000 I was right where you are two years ago.

00:35:09.000 Let me tell you why I chose the Ph.D. Weight Loss and Nutrition program.

00:35:13.000 First, Dr. Ashley Lucas has her Ph.D. in chronic disease and sports nutrition.

00:35:17.000 Her program is based on years of research and is science-based.

00:35:20.000 Second, the Ph.D. program starts in nutrition.

00:35:22.000 There is so much more.

00:35:23.000 They know that 90% of permanent change comes from the mind, and they work on eliminating the reason you gain this weight in the first place.

00:35:28.000 There's no shortcuts, pills, or injections.

00:35:30.000 Just solid science-based nutrition and behavior change.

00:35:33.000 And finally, probably most importantly, I lost 30 pounds.

00:35:35.000 Look, they're amazing.

00:35:36.000 If you want to lose weight, you've got to go to my Ph.D. Weight Loss.

00:35:38.000 I was just texting with Dr.

00:35:40.000 Ash Lucas today.

00:35:41.000 If you're ready to lose weight for the last time, call 864-644-1900.

00:35:45.000 Go online at myphdweightloss.com.

00:35:48.000 Do what I did and what hundreds of my listeners have done and call today, 864-644-1900.

00:35:54.000 I recommend their program.

00:35:55.000 Dr.

00:35:55.000 Ashley Lucas has her PhD in chronic disease and sports nutrition.

00:35:58.000 Her program is based on years of research and is science-based.

00:36:02.000 Second, the PhD program starts in nutrition, but it's so much more.

00:36:05.000 Go to myphdweightloss.com, myphdweightloss.com.

00:36:09.000 Call 864-644-1900.

00:36:11.000 I lost over 30 pounds.

00:36:13.000 Dr.

00:36:13.000 Asher Lucas, great American.

00:36:14.000 Check it out, myphdweightloss.com.

00:36:19.000 Andrew, today's been tough to get guests.

00:36:21.000 You know what I've noticed, Andrew, is that in the right-wing ecosystem, the laws of nature have hit humanity today, where all of a sudden everyone's sleeping in and catching up.

00:36:32.000 It's like you could do two all-nighters, maybe two and a half, and then all of a sudden you're done.

00:36:38.000 Right, Andrew?

00:36:39.000 Well, I want to be clear.

00:36:41.000 We could get guests if we wanted to.

00:36:44.000 I know.

00:36:45.000 I'm just saying there's just a lot of, can we wait an hour?

00:36:49.000 Charlie, you're pretty particular about the people that we have on.

00:36:54.000 We have a high quality product to produce here.

00:36:57.000 Yeah, exactly.

00:36:57.000 It's not a farmer's market here.

00:37:00.000 Exactly.

00:37:00.000 So that's one thing I will say.

00:37:03.000 Two, our flow, if you look at our inbox, everybody's just loving the flow of the show lately.

00:37:10.000 In this election season, this has been a little bit less of a priority put on it, but I will tell you, Charlie, I think you were talking about the House race, and I was telling you that New York Times tracking right now has us up and or winning already declared at 223 House seats,

00:37:32.000 which would be definitely enough to govern, I would say, especially with President Trump leading and And 53-54 in the Senate.

00:37:41.000 This is a very important thing.

00:37:43.000 Why would a five-seat majority be easier?

00:37:45.000 When you have an incumbent president, these people will not mess around.

00:37:50.000 Speaker Johnson didn't have the ability to tell him not what to do.

00:37:54.000 An incumbent president who's on a second term, who's insanely popular in the country, won the popular vote, and in your party, he'll pick up the phone and say, listen, you're going to vote for this bill.

00:38:05.000 It's like, done.

00:38:06.000 Okay?

00:38:07.000 Does that make sense, Blake?

00:38:07.000 It's even just...

00:38:09.000 Things are so much better than they were in 2016.

00:38:12.000 We've had, at this point, eight years where the Republican Party has been remade.

00:38:17.000 We've gotten rid of some old lawmakers who are behind the times.

00:38:20.000 You have new people in office who...

00:38:23.000 It's not even if they have to 100% agree with Trump.

00:38:25.000 They at least understand why Trump has been successful and what his appeal is.

00:38:29.000 We know it's not a fluke.

00:38:31.000 We know it's not, oh, he only won because of Jill Stein voters.

00:38:35.000 No, he won the popular vote outright.

00:38:38.000 He's gotten way more popular in blue states.

00:38:41.000 And it's just so much more natural to cobble together a coalition to get the things we want done.

00:38:47.000 It's not going to be, oh, let's just pass a tax cut and then do nothing else.

00:38:53.000 Yeah, and so there's two tracks here.

00:38:56.000 There's legislative priorities, and then a lot of stuff Trump can fix without Congress, by the way.

00:39:00.000 Remain in Mexico, border, right? 0.97

00:39:02.000 I mean, a lot of it.

00:39:03.000 But what should the legislative priority be, realistically?

00:39:08.000 I mean, we've got to get a budget done.

00:39:10.000 We have to get budgeting done the right way.

00:39:13.000 What do you think?

00:39:15.000 Because the problem was last time, okay, we've got some corporate tax cuts, great.

00:39:19.000 I mean, I genuinely think that a lot of border stuff, actually, the time, if you're going to do it, it's going to be early.

00:39:26.000 You're going to have Democrats looking at each other and going, we let the border get so bad that we shed, like, 20 points among Hispanics.

00:39:34.000 The entire, like, just point and scream racism didn't work.

00:39:37.000 So you wonder, like, are they really going to filibuster hard to say, oh, we can't build a wall on the border now, that we can't Deport any illegals.

00:39:46.000 I think you might see a lot more tentative openness to that maybe among Fetterman types in the coalition who say, hey, we'll have a lot better shot of winning if we're not seen as putting foreigners above American citizens.

00:40:01.000 And so I think a lot of stuff we can do on our own, but you do need congressional action for the most long-term successful stuff.

00:40:08.000 I think we can get action on that.

00:40:10.000 I agree.

00:40:10.000 And by the way, the thing I'm most excited about is McCormick is going to hang on.

00:40:15.000 I can say that confidently.

00:40:16.000 It's going to be a knife fight.

00:40:17.000 Would you agree, Blake?

00:40:18.000 It's 30,000 provisional ballots.

00:40:19.000 It doesn't matter.

00:40:20.000 We don't know how many provisional ballots there are, but I think he's going to win.

00:40:23.000 53 Senate seats is very good, and if we can get a Cary Lake...

00:40:26.000 Now, mind you, if we could have gotten a little extra juice in Wisconsin and we...

00:40:31.000 We spent so much money on this Maryland Fools errand to lose by seven.

00:40:34.000 Okay?

00:40:35.000 It's just ridiculous.

00:40:37.000 Michigan.

00:40:38.000 Rogers ended up losing by...

00:40:40.000 Wow.

00:40:42.000 30,000 votes.

00:40:43.000 Wisconsin.

00:40:44.000 Unbelievable.

00:40:45.000 30,000 votes.

00:40:46.000 It's almost like strangely consistent.

00:40:50.000 Sam Brown down 13,000 votes now in Nevada.

00:40:53.000 I don't think he can overcome that.

00:40:55.000 Do you, Andrew?

00:40:55.000 I just don't.

00:40:56.000 No, he's toast.

00:40:58.000 However, I will say, though, that Adam Laxalt should be a U.S. Senator from Nevada.

00:41:02.000 That didn't happen.

00:41:03.000 Nevada is going to be target for Chase in 2026 and 2028.

00:41:08.000 Nevada is so organically, I think, a state that we could win with a new Republican.

00:41:12.000 I totally agree.

00:41:14.000 Now the Senate maps for us next time, this is why we're so, you know, focused on this, are not great.

00:41:22.000 The states in particular, that we have a Georgia, well that's not one we have, actually it's not as bad as I thought it was.

00:41:28.000 Have you looked at the Senate maps?

00:41:29.000 They're not that bad.

00:41:30.000 Oh yeah, it's 2026.

00:41:32.000 Yeah, we have to hold on to North Carolina.

00:41:33.000 We will.

00:41:35.000 We're going to probably lose Susan Collins in Maine. 1.00

00:41:37.000 Well, if she retires.

00:41:39.000 Right.

00:41:40.000 If she doesn't retire, she's been able to defy gravity multiple times. 1.00

00:41:45.000 But Georgia, we have a chance to flip there, but that's going to be tough.

00:41:48.000 By the way, Andrew, can we comment that with all the money we spent and the organizing in Trump, we still only won Georgia by two points.

00:41:56.000 Yeah, I mean, to me, that's an area of concern, to be honest.

00:42:00.000 I totally agree.

00:42:01.000 You had this big red wave, and yet we saw the areas surrounding Atlanta.

00:42:07.000 And I think Blake's point is probably well made, that as Atlanta gets more crowded, you're seeing more spillover into surrounding suburban counties.

00:42:18.000 So it's getting bluer and bluer as the Atlanta metro increases in size, which...

00:42:23.000 It's just going to make Atlanta, it's going to make Georgia harder and harder to win.

00:42:27.000 So, you know, we're talking with Josh McCoon, GOP chair in Georgia.

00:42:32.000 We've got some plans on how to counter this.

00:42:35.000 There is going to be an issue, though, with Atlanta just continuing to explode in size.

00:42:40.000 What can we do to sort of shore up Georgia?

00:42:46.000 Because I think Georgia is a state we just can't afford to lose.

00:42:49.000 That in North Carolina, we have to do Some important work in the next couple years to make sure that we can win those states, not just in 2026 and 2028, but well into the future, because we have to look at that.

00:43:02.000 Now, an interesting standpoint here is, Charlie, we talk about this election being a big transformation of the electorate, and I think there's some interesting clues here from New York, right?

00:43:18.000 I mean, New York State had a big red shift.

00:43:21.000 So, I mean, if current trends hold, you could see some nutty things looking into the future where some of these states like New Jersey come into play.

00:43:30.000 I mean, we only lost New Jersey by four points.

00:43:33.000 New Jersey's got some super Hispanic-heavy districts.

00:43:37.000 And if those Hispanics keep coming our way, post-Trump. 1.00

00:43:41.000 So this is the big question for the, you know, as we're sort of crystal ball way, way down.

00:43:45.000 We have...

00:43:46.000 Sam Rodriguez coming on in the second half of this hour to talk about what's going on with Hispanics.

00:43:51.000 But if this trend with Hispanics holds in a post-Trump world, You could see the whole map just get bonkers in a way we didn't expect. 1.00

00:44:01.000 Why is this map so bad for us in 2026?

00:44:03.000 I kind of took people at face value.

00:44:04.000 Because they say 51 seats needed for majority.

00:44:06.000 That's not right.

00:44:07.000 It's 50 because we controlled the White House for four years.

00:44:09.000 Yeah, I mean, way more of our guys are up, so there's not a lot of pickup chances.

00:44:14.000 Yeah, North Carolina, I would say you'd have to watch about North Carolina.

00:44:17.000 You'd have to watch Texas.

00:44:18.000 If Tom Tillis runs for re-election, he will win.

00:44:20.000 Iowa, they'll go after that one.

00:44:21.000 In a bad year, all of those are vulnerable.

00:44:24.000 Well, Chuck Grassley, he's not running again.

00:44:26.000 So what?

00:44:29.000 He's the iron horse, man.

00:44:31.000 But hold on.

00:44:32.000 As we saw, Iowa is now a Republican plus 16 presidential state.

00:44:37.000 I'm trying to see, though.

00:44:37.000 Yes.

00:44:38.000 Georgia's a potential flip for us. 0.99

00:44:40.000 Maine, we could lose if she retires. 1.00

00:44:42.000 So is Michigan.

00:44:44.000 The thing about Georgia that's interesting to me is it was so close there and in North Carolina because we speculated, will we get a big shift of black voters towards Trump?

00:44:54.000 And that didn't actually materialize.

00:44:57.000 It was like one or two points, but it wasn't a significant revision like we saw with Hispanics.

00:45:03.000 If Trump can continue to push that, then we need that shift to make Georgia into a, oh, this is now a plus eight state for us again.

00:45:12.000 We don't need to sweat it as much.

00:45:13.000 If we can pull that off, it's great.

00:45:15.000 If we can't, it continues to be a problem.

00:45:20.000 Hey everybody, Charlie Kirk here.

00:45:21.000 Americans are tired and frustrated by a stalling economy, inflation, endless wars, and the relentless assault on our values.

00:45:27.000 Thankfully, there's companies like Patriot Mobile that still believe in America and our Constitution.

00:45:32.000 I'm proud to partner with Patriot Mobile because they're on the front lines fighting for the First and Second Amendments, Sanctity of Life, and our military and first responder heroes.

00:46:23.000 Okay, everybody, let's play some tape, but I just want to say really quick, let's put 300 up on screen.

00:46:28.000 Not that I want to get too ahead of ourselves, but I'm connecting 2024 to 2026, because I'm going to be honest, I'm not going to work as hard in 2026 as I did in 2024.

00:46:35.000 It's just not humanly possible.

00:46:37.000 By the way, it's going to be fine.

00:46:40.000 It's just a midterm.

00:46:41.000 You can't do it every time, right?

00:46:43.000 You've got to ramp up.

00:46:44.000 You can't spend 50% of your life going full steam.

00:46:47.000 And by the way, it's like, okay, I'm going to help Susan Collins.

00:46:50.000 I might do an event or something, right?

00:46:51.000 But the Democrats are going to be the opposite.

00:46:55.000 They're going to go crazy in the midterms, right?

00:46:56.000 Well, we're going to still kind of be recovering.

00:46:57.000 And that's the way it works, right?

00:46:58.000 It goes in cycles.

00:46:59.000 It goes up.

00:46:59.000 It goes down.

00:47:01.000 So, Andrew, I think you're going to love this.

00:47:03.000 I think we try to play offense.

00:47:04.000 We run Brian Kemp and Glenn Youngkin in Virginia and Georgia in the midterms.

00:47:10.000 I love that.

00:47:11.000 Play offense.

00:47:11.000 Right?

00:47:12.000 I love that.

00:47:13.000 Glenn Youngkin could totally be a U.S. Senator.

00:47:15.000 And he's very popular.

00:47:17.000 And that would be a pickup in Virginia because he's termed out.

00:47:19.000 You've got to remember, he's going to be termed out, so if people are wondering about the governors, that's the way Virginia works.

00:47:25.000 Yeah, it's one term and done.

00:47:26.000 Good old Thomas Jefferson rules.

00:47:28.000 Susan Collins, we'll see.

00:47:29.000 Let's just pretend we lose Maine, and we lose Iowa in a goofy thing.

00:47:35.000 Okay, then we're down to 51.

00:47:39.000 Now, if you hold on to Maine and Iowa, and you win Georgia-Virginia, you could get 55.

00:47:45.000 I mean, we're talking about...

00:47:47.000 It's actually a pretty good map for us, given what we just did.

00:47:50.000 Given we flipped Moreno and we flipped Casey, and they're waiting to call that.

00:47:55.000 And if we flip Lake, we'll be in a much better spot.

00:47:59.000 Well, and see, that's why Cary Lake takes on even more importance.

00:48:05.000 Obviously, we already have the majority, but that's one less...

00:48:08.000 That we have to gain to retain power in the Senate in 2026.

00:48:14.000 But Charlie, I'm telling you, there's going to be some weird math happening in 2026 if these current trends hold, which in 2026 I think it's more predictable that they will.

00:48:27.000 But look at this.

00:48:28.000 These are percent increase in Trump voters in select New York counties from 2020 to 2024.

00:48:35.000 Kings up 12.57%.

00:48:38.000 Queens, 21.59%.

00:48:40.000 Queens, Nassau, 14.24% increase.

00:48:44.000 Suffolk, 10.75%.

00:48:46.000 Manhattan, up 10.83% for Trump.

00:48:50.000 The Bronx, up 21, almost 22% in the Bronx.

00:48:57.000 I mean, Westchester, up 10.

00:48:58.000 So all I'm getting to, he loses New Jersey by four.

00:49:04.000 You know, maybe it's a pipe dream, a fool's errand.

00:49:08.000 I'm just saying, in 2026, I wonder if you ran a really strong candidate, you might be able to surprise somebody in a state like New Jersey.

00:49:17.000 We almost won that governor's race.

00:49:19.000 Remember, that governor's race was super close back.

00:49:22.000 By the way, their governor races are in off-election years, so you've got to remember that.

00:49:26.000 Yeah, well, and to your point, Charlie, we ran a no-namer in New Jersey, and he almost beat the incumbent. 0.99

00:49:32.000 Yep, Phil Murphy.

00:49:34.000 Yeah.

00:49:35.000 Email us, freedom at charliekirk.com, and subscribe to our podcast.

00:49:39.000 Boy, the amount of emails we're getting is just awesome, and people are just so excited.

00:49:43.000 Guys, we won!

00:49:44.000 We won the presidency!

00:49:45.000 That really is, you know, they say there's three equal branches of government, and there is, of course, technically, but there's so much unrealized executive power, and they're going to cut this up.

00:49:54.000 Oh, Charlie wants Trump to be a dictator.

00:49:56.000 No, it's like, actually the bureaucracy is there and there's a lot of crap to clean up.

00:50:00.000 And we have borders to secure and we have to allow drilling to occur.

00:50:04.000 And don't you agree, Blake, that there's unrealized federal power?

00:50:07.000 There's a lot of unrealized federal power.

00:50:09.000 And like, the truth is, is, you know, what's even more authoritarian than anything Trump could do?

00:50:13.000 Letting unelected bureaucrats do whatever they feel is best.

00:50:18.000 You guys didn't get elected to crap.

00:50:20.000 So, no, Trump is allowed to make appointments to fulfill the agenda he promised.

00:50:25.000 That is not a dictatorship.

00:50:27.000 That's less dictatorial than any prime minister in Canada or in Britain or in Europe.

00:50:33.000 It's just total nonsense crap that they're feeding you.

00:50:37.000 Email us, as always, freedom at charliekirk.com.

00:50:40.000 By the way, you know I haven't seen a lot of, and I'm sure it's coming, I haven't seen a lot of the stories of what went wrong in the final days of the Harris campaign, right?

00:50:49.000 There's some funny stuff.

00:50:50.000 There's stuff like Obama was trying to coach her speech to talk less about Trump, talk more about your personal story, Kamala.

00:50:58.000 We're getting a little bit of that.

00:50:59.000 One of my favorite is the Politico article.

00:51:01.000 Ten Democrat thinkers on what the party needs right now.

00:51:04.000 The Democrat Party should act more democratically.

00:51:04.000 How about this one?

00:51:07.000 Ooh, like hold a primary?

00:51:09.000 Yeah.

00:51:09.000 A vision that meets Americans from across the political spectrum.

00:51:13.000 I want...

00:51:13.000 Here's the one.

00:51:14.000 Populism must ignite to rebuild the Democrat Party.

00:51:16.000 I want the really nasty articles about that three-week period where they were forcing Biden out.

00:51:22.000 I want nasty tell-all memoirs on that one.

00:51:22.000 I know.

00:51:25.000 Your opponent has a national rage machine.

00:51:28.000 Demographics are not destiny.

00:51:30.000 These are actually pretty good.

00:51:31.000 Speak to working class pain. 0.98

00:51:33.000 Oh, you mean like listen to your voters?

00:51:35.000 Praise God!

00:51:36.000 We won, everybody!

00:51:37.000 We won!

00:51:38.000 Man, it's still not said in.

00:51:42.000 Hey everybody, Charlie Kirk here.

00:51:44.000 What an unbelievable start to 2024.

00:51:45.000 We had last month saving babies with pre-born by providing ultrasounds.

00:51:50.000 And we're doing again this year what we did last year.

00:51:52.000 We're going to stand for life because remaining silent in the face of the most radically pro-death administration is not an option.

00:51:57.000 As Sir Edmund Burke said, the only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.

00:52:02.000 And we're not going to do nothing.

00:52:03.000 Your gift to pre-born will give a girl the truth about what's happening in her body so that she can make the right choice.

00:52:09.000 $280 can save 10 babies.

00:52:11.000 $28 a month can save a baby a month all year long.

00:52:14.000 And a $15,000 gift will provide a complete ultrasound machine that will save thousands of babies for years and years to come.

00:52:21.000 And we'll also save moms from a lifetime of pain and regret.

00:52:24.000 Call 833-850-2229.

00:52:27.000 That's 833-850-2229.

00:52:29.000 Or click on the pre-born banner at charliekirk.com.

00:52:32.000 That is charliekirk.com and click on the pre-born banner.

00:52:35.000 Also save moms from a lifetime of pain and regret.

00:52:38.000 I'm a donor of this organization.

00:52:39.000 They're terrific.

00:52:40.000 Go to charliekirk.com.

00:52:41.000 Click on the pre-born banner.

00:52:44.000 Sam Rodriguez, pastor of New Season Church, president of the National Hispanic Christian Leadership Conference.

00:52:50.000 Pastor, welcome to the program.

00:52:52.000 Thank you for making time.

00:52:54.000 Charlie, thank you for having me.

00:52:56.000 And by the way, congrats, man.

00:52:57.000 Congrats.

00:52:58.000 We saw more young people support the conservative cause than ever before.

00:53:02.000 Much to your leadership, no joke.

00:53:04.000 I am extremely proud of you.

00:53:06.000 And to God be the glory, but congrats.

00:53:09.000 To God be the glory is right.

00:53:09.000 Well, thank you.

00:53:11.000 So let me ask you, Hispanic men in particular supported President Trump, a constituency the Democrat Party always took for granted.

00:53:19.000 What happened this election cycle?

00:53:21.000 54%.

00:53:22.000 54%.

00:53:24.000 Of Latinos. 0.94

00:53:26.000 45% of all Latinos.

00:53:27.000 Biggest numbers, largest numbers in American history.

00:53:30.000 And by the way, Charlie, I just received a press release regarding statements made by Legacy Media.

00:53:37.000 Officially, Latinos are now part of the racist misogynist list.

00:53:42.000 I'm not kidding.

00:53:43.000 They just deemed us.

00:53:44.000 We are Latinos voted for Trump because we are racist and we are misogynist.

00:53:48.000 We are machista.

00:53:50.000 How about that?

00:53:50.000 We're on the list, man.

00:53:52.000 We're on the list.

00:53:53.000 Congrats.

00:53:54.000 We're there, man.

00:53:55.000 We made it.

00:53:56.000 Of course we're not racist and misogynist.

00:53:58.000 Let me tell you why we did.

00:54:00.000 We supported President Trump and the conservative cause because it wasn't about we voted against Kamala Harris, to be honest.

00:54:07.000 It could have been Joe Biden.

00:54:08.000 It could have been Gavin Newsom.

00:54:09.000 It could have been Josh Shapiro.

00:54:10.000 How about that?

00:54:11.000 We voted against what?

00:54:13.000 DEI, CRT, wokeism, cancel culture, open borders, fentanyl, Bud Light, biological men and women's sports.

00:54:21.000 We voted against looting and rioting in San Francisco, California, and across America about any legal ramifications.

00:54:27.000 We voted against drag queen reading hour to our kids.

00:54:31.000 That's what we voted against.

00:54:33.000 It wasn't against Kamala Harris.

00:54:35.000 We voted against a Democratic Party, listen carefully, that is no longer liberal.

00:54:39.000 It is socialist.

00:54:41.000 It's no longer left of center.

00:54:43.000 It is extreme cuckoo for Cocoa Puff.

00:54:46.000 And that's why Latinos, 45% supported Trump, 54% of Latino men voted for President Trump.

00:54:52.000 It really is remarkable.

00:54:54.000 Let's play here.

00:54:55.000 Cut 226.

00:54:58.000 This is the media basically calling you a racist.

00:55:01.000 226.

00:55:02.000 I just say really quickly, too.

00:55:05.000 Democrats need to be mature and they need to be honest.

00:55:09.000 And they need to say, yes, there is.

00:55:11.000 There's misogyny.

00:55:13.000 But it's not just misogyny from white men.

00:55:16.000 It's misogyny from Hispanic men. 0.99

00:55:19.000 Right.

00:55:19.000 It's misogyny from black men.

00:55:21.000 Things we've all been talking about who do not want a woman leading them. 1.00

00:55:26.000 Might be race issues with Hispanics. 0.78

00:55:29.000 They don't want a black woman as President of the United States. 1.00

00:55:32.000 You know, the Democratic Party, I've always found when you're sitting around talking, they love to just sort of...

00:55:40.000 Balkanize everybody into these separate groups and say, oh, white people don't like women and black people.

00:55:49.000 No.

00:55:50.000 It is time for the Democrats to say, okay, and you and I have talked about this before, a lot of Hispanic voters have problems with black candidates.

00:56:00.000 Right.

00:56:01.000 And with other Hispanics. 0.97

00:56:02.000 You've got some that don't like each other.

00:56:05.000 And some of the most misogynist things I've heard going on this Get Out the Vote tour came from black men.

00:56:12.000 I mean, misogynist things.

00:56:14.000 So you're absolutely right.

00:56:15.000 It's not simplistic.

00:56:16.000 And we've got to have real honest conversations about it.

00:56:19.000 Real honest conversations.

00:56:21.000 Pastor, your reaction?

00:56:22.000 Joe Scarborough and Al Sharpton calling Latinos racist.

00:56:28.000 Isn't that racist in itself?

00:56:30.000 It is absolutely absurd.

00:56:33.000 Let me just give you this, Charlie.

00:56:35.000 Not only is that naive, it's cognitively naive.

00:56:38.000 They're lacking the bandwidth.

00:56:39.000 They're back in analog in a 5G world.

00:56:42.000 Intellectually speaking, they just articulate the argument of a chestnut roasting on an open fire.

00:56:47.000 It's Christmas season coming up, so that's applicable.

00:56:50.000 Let me give it to you straight.

00:56:53.000 The reason why Latinos voted for President Trump, we were conveying one message.

00:56:57.000 Let me give it to you in one sentence.

00:56:59.000 Get your hands off our children. 1.00

00:57:03.000 That was it.

00:57:04.000 We are a community of familia.

00:57:06.000 We're very family oriented.

00:57:08.000 We adore our kids.

00:57:10.000 All these agendas coming from the left are coming after our children.

00:57:14.000 If they don't kill our children in the womb of abortion, they kill our children in the classroom with social constructs and ideologies that are counterintuitive to the word and the will of God. 0.85

00:57:24.000 Even to our American Constitution, to the Bill of Rights.

00:57:27.000 So with that being said, hey, Joe, that's racist.

00:57:31.000 Al, what you stated was racist.

00:57:33.000 And the reason we voted for Trump was conveying a message.

00:57:36.000 Get your hands off our children. 1.00

00:57:40.000 Keep on with the name-calling all you want.

00:57:42.000 The more you name-call, the more the Latino community will emerge as one of the strongest pillars in the conservative movement for generations to come.

00:57:50.000 Get your hands off our kids, man.

00:57:52.000 Andrew, you have some thoughts here.

00:57:54.000 Yeah, hey, Pastor Sam.

00:57:55.000 How you doing?

00:57:56.000 Good.

00:57:56.000 How are you?

00:57:58.000 It's been a while, my friend.

00:58:00.000 Pastor, they want to give it all to the fact that it was the economy, right?

00:58:06.000 They look at New Jersey, that it wasn't necessarily a values issue.

00:58:10.000 What's your take on that?

00:58:13.000 Where is the Hispanic community, you know, the Catholic Hispanics, the evangelical Hispanics?

00:58:19.000 Where are those numbers at like that?

00:58:21.000 And are evangelicals still growing as a proportion?

00:58:24.000 Yeah, the evangelical community, even recent surveys came out in the past few months on that.

00:58:29.000 There's a book called Latino Land by Maria Arana.

00:58:32.000 There's a PBS special that came out.

00:58:34.000 And the Latino evangelical community is the fastest growing religious demographic in America.

00:58:39.000 It's not just growing, it's blowing up.

00:58:42.000 And as you know, many of the mainstream Protestant denominations, but many of the evangelicals, the Baptist, Assemblies of God, Church of God, Forsker, and all that, their major growth comes from Latinos.

00:58:54.000 So it is growing.

00:58:55.000 This community is blowing up.

00:58:56.000 And there's no end in sight.

00:58:58.000 Inevitably, there will be a tipping point with migratory trends changing and so forth.

00:59:02.000 And that's going to happen somewhere mid-century, all things being equal.

00:59:05.000 But right now, it is growing.

00:59:07.000 That growth comes with family values.

00:59:09.000 It's still a very conservative community.

00:59:11.000 It is.

00:59:12.000 It's one of the most pro-life communities.

00:59:14.000 Some studies came out contradicting that right before the election by leftist institutions.

00:59:20.000 Coincidentally enough, maybe the Des Moines Register.

00:59:22.000 I'm sorry.

00:59:23.000 I'm a part-time comedian.

00:59:24.000 I had to bring that.

00:59:26.000 Des Moines Register.

00:59:26.000 Boy, were they off.

00:59:29.000 But that leftist sort of machinery out there is producing data that doesn't line up with the outcome.

00:59:35.000 And the outcome is Latinos. 1.00

00:59:37.000 Let me ask you one question.

00:59:39.000 Find me one Latino you have ever met that believes in late-term abortion. 1.00

00:59:43.000 In late-term abortion, you'll never find it.

00:59:46.000 So yes, conservative community emerging.

00:59:50.000 Blowing up, I believe, will be a foundational pillar for the conservative movement in the 21st century.

00:59:56.000 Matter of fact, I am certain of that.

00:59:58.000 Well, there was a great tweet.

01:00:00.000 Actually, Charlie flagged it for me.

01:00:02.000 It was like somebody on X said, try calling me Latinx again, huh?

01:00:09.000 They worded it a little more flowery than that, Pastor, so I won't bring it to you.

01:00:15.000 But I think it's emblematic of what you're talking about.

01:00:19.000 Andrew, being one of my favorite people on the planet, by the way.

01:00:23.000 And so, no joke, Andrew is.

01:00:26.000 But the X part?

01:00:29.000 How stupid is that from a branding standpoint?

01:00:32.000 You want to cross out a community.

01:00:35.000 It's just, again, from a branding perspective, who thinks of this?

01:00:39.000 That's the pushback.

01:00:40.000 I do believe that there is an opportunity now for the Republican Party, more importantly the conservative movement, to affirm this engagement for generations to come.

01:00:51.000 And it's going to deal around the issue of immigration.

01:00:54.000 So there's a way of doing it in a way, and President Trump already did it.

01:00:59.000 He already did.

01:01:00.000 If you heard him carefully, he said this, which, by the way, it boggled the mind.

01:01:04.000 This is what he said in his acceptance speech.

01:01:06.000 Did you all hear it?

01:01:07.000 He said, we want immigrants to come here.

01:01:12.000 What in the world?

01:01:14.000 How can the left, he said, we want immigrants to come here, but they have to come here legally, and they have to love America, et cetera, et cetera.

01:01:23.000 There's a way of doing this where it's a win-win.

01:01:26.000 We stop all illegal immigration, cut off the cartels, and do it in a way that respects the image of God in every single human being.

01:01:34.000 But I'm telling you, we're about to see this Latino emergence in the forefront of a conservative Judeo-Christian value-based movement that will be transformative for America for generations to come.

01:01:45.000 It's remarkable to see.

01:01:47.000 And the Democrat Party took the Latino-Hispanic community for granted.

01:01:53.000 And it is continuing.

01:01:57.000 This trend will only continue.

01:01:59.000 And understand, it's less about race and more about class.

01:02:02.000 Hispanics are in the working class.

01:02:04.000 And the Democrat Party is not the party of the working class.

01:02:07.000 Do you realize that during Trump's first term, I want your audience to do their Google or chat GPT due diligence, please.

01:02:15.000 Make sure of this, go fact check this.

01:02:17.000 During Trump's first term, Latinos blew up as it pertains to home ownership.

01:02:23.000 The unemployment rate was the lowest ever for Latinos, but home ownership, in a matter of fact, we exceeded for a great season there, even, I hate to say these terms, Caucasian white, the home ownership.

01:02:35.000 We were...

01:02:37.000 That's college graduation rates blew up.

01:02:41.000 So the Latino community is not just no longer low middle.

01:02:45.000 It is middle high middle going upper if you're using these old archaic terms of measuring class.

01:02:51.000 It's an incredible time during the first term.

01:02:53.000 Latinos remember that.

01:02:55.000 We were doing better in every metric, without exception, during Donald Trump's first term.

01:03:00.000 So now here comes Donald Trump 2.0.

01:03:03.000 So yeah, the economy was critical, but I believe there were some implicit issues.

01:03:08.000 Some silent issues like, you know, biological men and women's sports, like the transgender ideology infiltrating elementary schools, like the idea that a six-year-old who is confused about their gender can actually receive government intervention and take that child away from our homes. 0.56

01:03:27.000 Latinos are saying, get your hands off our kids. 1.00

01:03:29.000 So I do believe the future is bright with Latino conservatives and so forth, but I do believe we also have an opportunity to help frame the narrative against this notion from the Democrats where, hey, I think this is actually the best season for the Democratic Party.

01:03:44.000 It really is.

01:03:45.000 It's the quintessential wake-up call, if they get it.

01:03:48.000 Joe Scarborough and Al Sharpton aside, if they wake up and go like, we're blowing it with the largest minority group in America, Let's repent. 1.00

01:03:57.000 Mea culpa.

01:03:57.000 What do we do to reach you guys?

01:03:59.000 And to have a frank conversation, it could strengthen that party.

01:04:03.000 If not, that party's going to go into the abyss of the political sphere out there for the next few years.

01:04:09.000 Okay, Sam Rodriguez, thank you so much.

01:04:11.000 And please plug your stuff for our audience very quick.

01:04:14.000 SamPastorSam.com, brand new book, Fresh Oil, Holy Fire, new wine.

01:04:23.000 God bless, man.

01:04:24.000 Thank you.

01:04:27.000 Hey everybody, Charlie Kirk here.

01:04:29.000 A large retail store just canceled a huge order, leaving MyPillow with a ton of extra pillows.

01:05:22.000 The lowest price ever.

01:05:24.000 That is MyPillow.com, promo code KIRK. All right, Blake, navigate us through Mr.

01:05:31.000 Kimmel here.

01:05:31.000 It's too good to be true.

01:05:33.000 It's great.

01:05:33.000 So we've been enjoying the victory, but we haven't actually taken a lot of time to fully enjoy their misery.

01:05:39.000 The agony, the suffering.

01:05:41.000 We haven't done that at all.

01:05:42.000 It's a little bit slower than I think it's going to pick up, though.

01:05:44.000 It'll pick up.

01:05:45.000 It's going to pick up.

01:05:46.000 There's been a lot of this, so we want to have some of these good ones.

01:05:50.000 And there was a bit of a delay, too.

01:05:52.000 In 2016, Stephen Colbert did that live stream with Mark Halpern on the show where they come in and they thought he was going to have him walk.

01:06:00.000 It was so great.

01:06:02.000 But what's the number here?

01:06:03.000 So Jimmy Kimmel, of course, was a very aggravating lib.

01:06:07.000 He's one of the biggest figures in the turning of late-night TV into this endless crap show.

01:06:13.000 He started to basically cry last night in his first program post-election.

01:06:17.000 Let's play 290.

01:06:20.000 Let's be honest.

01:06:21.000 It was a terrible night last night.

01:06:22.000 It was a terrible night for women, for children, for the hundreds of thousands of hard-working immigrants who make this country go.

01:06:31.000 For healthcare, for our climate, for science, for journalism, for justice, for free speech.

01:06:41.000 It was a terrible night for poor people, for the middle class, for seniors who rely on Social Security, for our allies in Ukraine, for NATO, for the truth.

01:06:54.000 And democracy, and decency, and it was a terrible night for everyone who voted against him, and guess what?

01:07:01.000 It was a bad night for everyone who voted for him, too.

01:07:03.000 You just don't realize it yet.

01:07:04.000 I like that his voice started to crack when he got to NATO. For NATO! I know, but it's just, I mean, this is, he's supposed to be a comedian, right?

01:07:12.000 Allegedly he was, but...

01:07:14.000 No.

01:07:14.000 By the way, democracy, who won the popular vote, exactly?

01:07:17.000 It's so symbolic, too, that one of the biggest trends in this campaign is this was like the dude bro election of ordinary dudes saying, wait, the Democrats are awful now.

01:07:27.000 He used to do the man show.

01:07:29.000 He used to do a dude bro show and was a liberal.

01:07:33.000 It was a misogynist show.

01:07:36.000 Let's be clear.

01:07:37.000 He did actually gross things.

01:07:39.000 Yeah, he did like gross stuff.

01:07:41.000 Whatever.

01:07:42.000 That used to be a thing you could have on the left.

01:07:44.000 You could be a dude bro leftist.

01:07:46.000 And you can't anymore.

01:07:49.000 And they turned off so many people with all that scolding, with all that, you know, they just became so unpleasant that they can't have the coalition they used to have that won elections.

01:08:00.000 We have another funny one we should play here.

01:08:02.000 Let's play 205. 0.78

01:08:04.000 Quick question.

01:08:05.000 So does anybody know how to find or hire a hitman or woman? 0.80

01:08:14.000 Because we don't want to be sexist.

01:08:16.000 But I think we could pull this off collectively.

01:08:18.000 If you want to chip in, DM us.

01:08:20.000 By the way, our threats are going crazy right now.

01:08:23.000 We're getting tons of stuff.

01:08:24.000 They want me dead.

01:08:26.000 We need 24-hour security.

01:08:28.000 It's out of control.

01:08:28.000 These people are deranged.

01:08:30.000 It's gross, but it's a badge of honor to be blamed for what we managed to pull off.

01:08:35.000 I mean, yeah.

01:08:35.000 Will the FBI come after her?

01:08:37.000 I mean, why did TikTok even allow her to post it?

01:08:38.000 We're not allowed to even say trans on TikTok without... 1.00

01:08:41.000 By the way, we're going to fix that.

01:08:44.000 We got a lot of stuff to fix, by the way.

01:08:45.000 There's so many things.

01:08:46.000 I feel like...

01:08:47.000 I really hope we can use this to create a big vibe shift.

01:08:50.000 It'd be so amazing if we could have Jeff Bezos come out and say, yeah, we're just going to not censor things on Amazon anymore.

01:08:55.000 This was a vote for free speech.

01:08:57.000 YouTube come out and say, we're just going to be hands off.

01:08:59.000 Just be hands off.

01:09:00.000 We're not even saying you need to be a right-wing propagandist here.

01:09:03.000 Just don't have the suffocating nanny state censorship machine.

01:09:09.000 It would be good for America.

01:09:11.000 It'd be good for the right. 0.70

01:09:12.000 It'd be good for the left.

01:09:13.000 Everyone would feel better if they didn't have to worry about someone coming in and banning them for something.

01:09:17.000 Just let people talk.

01:09:19.000 Do we have more kind of videos like this?

01:09:22.000 Alright, let's play...

01:09:23.000 By the way, this is my favorite.

01:09:25.000 Let's put 303 up on screen here.

01:09:28.000 Democrats call for a party reckoning.

01:09:30.000 Just look at this.

01:09:31.000 How delicious is this here?

01:09:35.000 Democrats call for a party reckoning.

01:09:37.000 Let's play cut 304.

01:09:39.000 And finally, we talk a lot about these different demographics and these assumptions of where they're going to go.

01:09:44.000 Latinos in Texas, a district that's 97% Latino, went 75 percentage points for Donald Trump.

01:09:50.000 Why?

01:09:51.000 Misogyny.

01:09:52.000 No, it's on the border!

01:09:53.000 The border crisis is on their doorstep.

01:09:55.000 And they were begging people to care about it for years.

01:09:58.000 We need to take some lessons.

01:09:59.000 The lessons are not misogyny.

01:10:01.000 Who's there?

01:10:02.000 Oh my gosh, it's whooping!

01:10:04.000 We have just a few seconds left.

01:10:06.000 Let's play 2.31.

01:10:07.000 I'm sorry!

01:10:08.000 No!

01:10:11.000 No!

01:10:13.000 Why?

01:10:18.000 Why?

01:10:20.000 Do you really hate me that bad?

01:10:21.000 No, we don't hate you, actually.

01:10:24.000 We'll be playing that one, like the chick screaming at inauguration. 0.99

01:10:27.000 We want you to live in a decent country, actually.

01:10:30.000 We will make your country great again, even if it's against your will.

01:10:34.000 I know.

01:10:35.000 They need to have some humility.

01:10:37.000 By the way, some people say, oh, Charlie, you shouldn't show these clips.

01:10:39.000 Honestly, these people wanted us dead the last four years.

01:10:42.000 I'm going to enjoy it for a couple days.

01:10:43.000 It's only been two days, by the way.

01:10:44.000 Thanks so much for listening, everybody.
