The Glenn Beck Program - Best of the Program ｜ Guest： Lara Trump ｜ 10⧸9⧸24

00:00:00.000 On today's podcast, the fate of our country is at stake, and there's a new poll out that says 41% of people who claim to be Christians, 38% who go to church every Sunday, say they're not going to vote.

00:00:16.180 You need to listen to this podcast, because everything is at stake, and take this podcast message seriously.

00:00:23.580 Also, Laura Trump talks about how North Carolina is trying to get the voters, both sides, have been impacted by Hurricane Helene.

00:00:33.400 How are they going to be able to cast their vote?

00:00:36.180 We have that with Laura Trump.

00:00:37.860 Also, on the full podcast, you'll hear the CEO of Sticker Mule and how he fought for the ability to have a sign in New York that says, Vote for Trump.

00:00:46.120 Plus, Yakko Buyens is here as well.

00:00:49.160 All that and more on today's program, but this is the best of the Glenn Beck Podcast.

00:00:55.360 Worst kind of mistake you can make in life is the type that can never be taken back.

00:01:00.620 Maybe on the top of that list is taking another person's life.

00:01:04.940 Sometimes, unfortunately, it is necessary.

00:01:08.260 Sometimes it's the right thing to do in a situation, but either way, you don't get to take it back.

00:01:13.720 Once you pull that trigger, you cannot take that back.

00:01:16.860 Like, that's why, in addition to the guns that I own that I lost in a very tragic lake accident, man, those boats.

00:01:26.760 Well, I talked to the guy of the Cajun Navy.

00:01:28.800 I don't know if he's lost all of his guns, you know, down at the bottom of a swamp, but I lost mine in a lake.

00:01:34.700 Anyway, I have Burner Launcher.

00:01:36.640 It's a non-lethal alternative.

00:01:38.800 It'll safeguard your home.

00:01:40.200 It's great in the glove box.

00:01:42.000 You can carry it.

00:01:42.840 It's legal in all 50 states.

00:01:45.360 No permits or background checks are required.

00:01:48.260 They can be used by all age groups over 18.

00:01:51.860 And it has powerful deterrents, kinetic rounds, and tear gas.

00:01:57.060 Not pepper spray.

00:01:58.640 Tear gas.

00:01:59.780 It'll hit something at a 60-foot range.

00:02:02.360 It'll incapacitate somebody up to 40 minutes.

00:02:19.600 You're listening to

00:02:28.480 The Best of the Glenn Beck Program.

00:02:32.840 Millions of Christians.

00:02:34.080 This is the latest from John Solomon at Just the News.

00:02:38.740 Millions of Christians not planning to vote this November

00:02:42.860 could shape the election.

00:02:45.180 The Cultural Research Center at Arizona Christian University found

00:02:49.500 that approximately 104 million people under the people of faith umbrella

00:02:55.540 are not expected to vote this election,

00:02:59.240 including 41 million Americans and 32 million whom regularly go to church.

00:03:06.040 I want to talk to you if you are one of those 41 million Christians

00:03:12.900 or 32 million who go to church on Sunday.

00:03:18.260 Can we have a conversation?

00:03:24.140 Let's start here.

00:03:26.340 Are the conditions for your family, your job, your neighborhood, your town

00:03:32.000 better or worse than they were four years ago?

00:03:37.160 Take a minute.

00:03:38.540 Think about it.

00:03:39.200 Are things more secure or more chaotic?

00:03:44.260 Whether you're concerned about what's going on at your child's school,

00:03:47.980 the state of the economy,

00:03:49.500 what you're seeing in our cities,

00:03:51.580 the issues that shape our daily lives are right in front of us.

00:03:54.800 The border now affects all of us.

00:03:56.680 And we are left to ask,

00:03:59.480 is this problem bigger or smaller than it was four years ago?

00:04:05.480 So let's begin with the state of the economy.

00:04:08.440 And again, please listen if you are one that says,

00:04:12.640 I don't think I'm going to vote.

00:04:14.700 Inflation is something that all of us feel,

00:04:17.020 whether it's at the gas pump, in the grocery store,

00:04:20.100 when we pay our energy bills.

00:04:22.000 Four years ago, what were you paying for a gallon of gas?

00:04:25.720 What was your last electric bill?

00:04:30.360 And what was it?

00:04:31.240 Look it up.

00:04:32.020 What was it before this administration?

00:04:36.440 How much has your weekly grocery run changed?

00:04:40.760 Some say inflation has cooled.

00:04:44.240 Well, that's true.

00:04:45.700 We're now at three, three and a half percent inflation rate,

00:04:49.160 but that's on top of the 20% that has already been added.

00:04:54.020 So our inflation from four years ago is 23%.

00:04:58.920 That's why your dollar is not going as far.

00:05:03.080 How secure do you feel in your job?

00:05:06.060 How secure do you feel in your retirement funds?

00:05:10.700 Are you making enough to make ends meet?

00:05:17.160 Or are you thinking, I might have to get a second job?

00:05:19.820 Or have you already gotten a second job and you are still struggling?

00:05:26.320 Energy prices.

00:05:27.840 Energy prices affect everything.

00:05:30.600 Everything.

00:05:31.220 All the way to prescription drugs because the little capsules,

00:05:34.340 that's made from petroleum.

00:05:35.820 Energy prices have seen dramatic shifts.

00:05:40.880 We hear a lot about the transition to cleaner energy,

00:05:43.540 but many of us are still dependent on traditional sources of power

00:05:46.880 to heat our homes and fuel our cars.

00:05:49.860 Now, the administration says that they want you to get rid of your gas stove,

00:05:54.320 your gas heater, and go to electric.

00:05:56.760 But electric is made mainly by coal in America.

00:06:01.220 Is your energy bill manageable?

00:06:05.120 Or are these shifts in the global market affecting your bottom line?

00:06:09.900 What was your energy bill four years ago?

00:06:12.820 Is it better or worse?

00:06:15.940 Then there's the issue of crime and safety on our streets.

00:06:20.900 Crime rates fluctuate.

00:06:22.560 Depending on where you live,

00:06:23.860 your sense of security may have improved or worsened.

00:06:26.960 I don't know where your sense of security might have improved,

00:06:32.160 except maybe very small towns.

00:06:35.100 Do you feel safer walking in your neighborhood now than you did four years ago?

00:06:39.860 Are you comfortable with your wife or your daughter going out of the house

00:06:45.240 and going to get gas at night?

00:06:48.320 I'm not.

00:06:49.960 Have you noticed changes in how law enforcement operates in your town?

00:06:54.080 These are not abstract ideas.

00:06:57.200 They directly impact whether you feel safe in your own home,

00:07:01.900 whether your children feel secure when they walk to school.

00:07:06.200 Speaking of schools,

00:07:08.480 education, significant debate on education.

00:07:12.780 What is being taught in your child's school?

00:07:15.760 How does it compare four years ago when we weren't teaching DEI?

00:07:22.400 We weren't teaching CRT.

00:07:24.460 We were not teaching gender ideology.

00:07:27.920 Four years ago, we were not teaching it.

00:07:31.460 Remember, that came as a surprise.

00:07:33.840 And then you were called a terrorist if you spoke out against it by our government.

00:07:39.100 From concerns about curricula to the growing conversation around transgender affirmative care

00:07:46.780 for young people, parents across the country are asking questions about what kind of education

00:07:52.080 their children are receiving.

00:07:53.860 Are they getting a better education of reading, writing, and arithmetic?

00:07:57.920 Or worse?

00:07:59.440 What is it our schools are focused on?

00:08:02.220 And do you feel empowered as a parent to shape your child's learning environment?

00:08:09.000 Or do you feel increasingly sidelined?

00:08:12.300 That is a question you must ask and answer.

00:08:16.920 We've also seen robust debates around freedom of speech,

00:08:20.720 from social media censorship to the limits of free expression in public and corporate spaces.

00:08:25.700 Because many feel the boundaries of what can and cannot be said have shifted.

00:08:31.040 For the first time in my lifetime, I'm not sure about my future in broadcast.

00:08:38.280 For the first time in my lifetime, I have friends outside of broadcast

00:08:43.080 that are afraid to say anything at work for fear that they'll be fired

00:08:47.780 because they have a politically incorrect opinion.

00:08:51.280 Has your ability to speak freely, whether online or in your community,

00:08:57.360 become easier or more difficult over the last four years?

00:09:01.120 Do you feel that public discourse is more open or more constrained?

00:09:07.880 Is it more Christ-like or less Christ-like?

00:09:12.280 Are more lies being told or truths being told?

00:09:17.340 And does this administration accept the truth?

00:09:24.360 That one you'll have to go back to gender on. 1.00

00:09:26.880 That one you'll have to go back to a lot of them on.

00:09:30.580 Immigration is another issue.

00:09:32.820 This shapes your world.

00:09:35.580 This shapes our country.

00:09:37.440 Whether you live near the border or far from it,

00:09:40.480 it doesn't matter anymore.

00:09:41.980 Our immigration policies of an open border influences you.

00:09:48.740 Your security, our economy, the social fabric of our nation.

00:09:53.460 Are you more confident today in our nation's ability to manage immigration?

00:09:58.420 Or are you concerned, more concerned than you were four years ago?

00:10:03.360 Our security.

00:10:05.320 You know, they just caught somebody from Afghanistan.

00:10:07.740 And it's someone this administration let in.

00:10:11.800 They knew who they were.

00:10:13.620 They let them in.

00:10:14.800 And they were planning on a massive terror strike on election day.

00:10:19.660 They've just been arrested.

00:10:21.480 Do you feel better or worse?

00:10:27.640 What about war and peace?

00:10:30.600 International conflicts have a way of reaching our doorstep.

00:10:33.500 Whether it's ongoing tensions in various parts of the world

00:10:37.260 or new conflicts that are emerging,

00:10:39.580 the effects trickle down into our lives

00:10:42.020 through just higher prices and economic uncertainty.

00:10:46.000 Or, worse, the fear of further escalation.

00:10:51.300 We're now for the first time since the 1980s.

00:10:55.060 I had forgotten all about this threat

00:10:57.340 because I never thought it would be reasonable to use.

00:10:59.700 I thought we had already learned this lesson.

00:11:01.460 But we're now seriously talking about facing a nuclear war.

00:11:06.900 We were not four years ago.

00:11:10.200 Do you feel the specter of war were a draft of your son?

00:11:15.860 And now, because of what Democrats want,

00:11:18.200 possibly your daughter into war.

00:11:21.480 Is that more likely or less likely than it was four years ago?

00:11:27.080 Corporate corruption.

00:11:28.280 Something that often flies under the radar,

00:11:31.560 but it impacts all of us,

00:11:33.020 whether it's through rising prices, monopolies,

00:11:35.940 to stifle competition,

00:11:37.460 scandals that shake the public trust,

00:11:40.320 corruption at the highest levels of business.

00:11:42.620 It trickles down to our everyday life.

00:11:45.380 Do you feel this administration is more likely

00:11:48.120 to bail those corporations out that play ball or less likely?

00:11:52.120 Do you think this administration is more likely

00:11:54.700 to continue to bail out the banks or less likely?

00:11:57.560 Do you feel that the corporations are being held accountable

00:12:02.620 for doing things that are absolutely un-American?

00:12:08.040 Or does it seem like the same pattern

00:12:10.800 of being in bed with the government keeps playing out?

00:12:14.080 And how does that affect your business?

00:12:16.380 In a better way or a worse way?

00:12:20.780 Finally, I want to talk to you about faith.

00:12:24.080 For those who consider themselves people of faith,

00:12:29.720 people who go to church,

00:12:31.460 that are now thinking,

00:12:33.400 I'm not going to vote,

00:12:35.560 let me ask you about how these issues

00:12:39.460 affect your spiritual and moral life.

00:12:43.360 Do they affect your spiritual and moral life

00:12:46.560 of you or your family or your children?

00:12:50.100 Now, this is deeply personal.

00:12:53.060 But when we're having gender-affirming care

00:12:56.160 and your children are being taught

00:12:58.160 that God makes mistakes

00:13:00.660 and puts people in the wrong bodies,

00:13:03.220 is that good for your children's

00:13:05.340 spiritual health and future or bad?

00:13:08.560 Do you feel that your values are being upheld

00:13:12.080 in the public sphere more or less

00:13:14.420 than you did four years ago?

00:13:16.000 When we experienced Afghanistan and the withdrawal,

00:13:20.720 was that honorable or not?

00:13:24.680 What's happening in Appalachia,

00:13:27.400 is that honorable or not?

00:13:31.360 Has there been a shift in the way our society

00:13:34.300 views the role of right and wrong?

00:13:37.340 Has right become wrong and wrong become right?

00:13:40.940 Woe unto them. 1.00

00:13:45.840 Is it different how our society views religion now?

00:13:50.120 These should be on the minds

00:13:53.040 of millions of Americans.

00:13:56.040 Whether you're satisfied with the answers or not,

00:14:00.180 you must consider them carefully.

00:14:04.460 Now, here's why your vote does matter.

00:14:07.280 You can live in Texas.

00:14:08.540 I'm voting.

00:14:09.160 Now, I think the Ted Cruz race

00:14:12.920 is actually, Ted is in jeopardy.

00:14:15.740 So I'm voting because of that.

00:14:17.220 But I'm also voting for president.

00:14:18.900 I think it's really clear on what happens in Texas.

00:14:22.540 Maybe not.

00:14:23.620 But I'm voting because it matters

00:14:25.720 not just at the ballot box.

00:14:32.040 You might argue that one vote

00:14:34.460 doesn't make a difference

00:14:35.540 or that both sides are so similar

00:14:37.960 or it doesn't matter.

00:14:40.420 First of all, that's not true.

00:14:43.260 As Dietrich Bonhoeffer said,

00:14:45.520 not to act is to act.

00:14:48.500 Not to speak is to speak.

00:14:50.600 So by staying at home,

00:14:53.200 you are voting.

00:14:54.960 Not just here in America,

00:14:57.300 but in the eternities,

00:14:59.080 you are voting.

00:15:00.040 Even when you think your voice

00:15:02.200 won't be counted,

00:15:03.420 it is.

00:15:04.500 Even if you think it's all corrupt,

00:15:07.360 your voice matters.

00:15:09.420 If you are a Christian, 0.97

00:15:11.040 when you abstain from voting

00:15:12.760 because you're frustrated with both sides

00:15:14.420 or you just can't make a choice,

00:15:16.500 your absence is the vote.

00:15:19.420 It is action through inaction.

00:15:24.840 Now let me ask you,

00:15:26.080 do you like what your schools

00:15:27.400 are now trying to do?

00:15:30.280 Become the parent

00:15:31.320 and cut you out 0.80

00:15:32.380 of your child's life

00:15:34.060 and critical decisions?

00:15:35.580 Do you feel this is healthy

00:15:37.300 for your children

00:15:38.200 or our society?

00:15:40.340 Do you feel right now

00:15:42.280 that your child

00:15:43.060 is going to have

00:15:43.760 the opportunities

00:15:44.480 that you had

00:15:45.840 to better your life

00:15:47.460 or not?

00:15:48.080 Most do not.

00:15:51.020 Well, has that gotten better

00:15:52.480 or worse

00:15:53.520 in the last four years?

00:15:56.340 And let me ask you,

00:15:57.940 why would you let strangers,

00:15:59.880 people you do not know,

00:16:02.820 that don't hold your values,

00:16:04.880 dictate the future

00:16:06.700 for your child

00:16:07.660 and your grandchildren?

00:16:09.340 You must be in the fight.

00:16:12.820 You know over 70%

00:16:14.020 of all atheists 0.54

00:16:14.760 vote for Democrats?

00:16:17.460 Now I know some

00:16:18.220 very nice atheists,

00:16:19.680 but do they hold

00:16:20.640 your values?

00:16:23.020 In the midst

00:16:23.980 of moral darkness,

00:16:26.380 is this the time

00:16:28.800 to be neutral?

00:16:32.060 I've told you before,

00:16:33.100 there's not going to be

00:16:33.820 anyone in the stands

00:16:34.760 in the end.

00:16:35.460 All of us

00:16:36.140 are on the field

00:16:37.160 whether we like it

00:16:37.960 or not,

00:16:38.340 one way or another.

00:16:39.500 If this is the time

00:16:41.000 of fulfilled prophecy,

00:16:42.500 which it might be,

00:16:44.200 the time that all men 0.96

00:16:46.180 will be tracked

00:16:47.320 and monitored,

00:16:48.620 that money will be worthless

00:16:49.980 and you'll be tracked

00:16:50.920 and have to buy or sell

00:16:52.540 and participate

00:16:53.320 because you'll have

00:16:54.480 to accept something

00:16:55.360 placed under the skin,

00:16:56.860 hand or forehead,

00:16:58.000 is this really the time

00:16:59.680 to remain neutral

00:17:00.880 on central bank

00:17:02.080 digital currency?

00:17:03.960 When one world government

00:17:05.580 is in the wings,

00:17:07.500 openly,

00:17:08.480 and is almost ready

00:17:09.580 to take the stage,

00:17:11.140 that's prophecy.

00:17:12.220 Is it now the time

00:17:13.680 for Christians

00:17:14.260 not to speak up?

00:17:16.320 One side is very clear

00:17:18.100 on those two things

00:17:19.040 in the implementation of

00:17:20.540 and the other

00:17:21.420 sides against it.

00:17:24.900 Well, I don't like

00:17:25.880 Donald Trump.

00:17:26.700 Well, you know what?

00:17:28.360 Have you read about

00:17:29.280 Martin Luther King?

00:17:30.160 He was not a good guy.

00:17:32.480 But he wasn't the first

00:17:33.760 to be asked.

00:17:34.500 He was the first 0.93

00:17:35.400 to accept the challenge.

00:17:38.160 Others were asked.

00:17:39.840 They said no.

00:17:40.820 They didn't want to die.

00:17:41.720 They didn't want to

00:17:42.220 stick their neck out.

00:17:43.460 Martin Luther King

00:17:44.360 was just obedient enough

00:17:46.840 on that call 1.00

00:17:47.760 or dumb enough 1.00

00:17:49.180 to say yes. 1.00

00:17:51.040 So, you don't get

00:17:52.740 perfect leaders.

00:17:55.740 And if the people of God

00:17:57.000 do not stand now,

00:17:57.940 you may lose your right

00:17:59.260 to stand and speak

00:18:00.320 in an American fashion

00:18:01.660 that we're all used to.

00:18:03.180 It not only can happen here,

00:18:05.280 it is happening here.

00:18:07.240 And the Constitution

00:18:08.140 is hanging by a thread.

00:18:09.660 I don't know

00:18:10.820 any other way

00:18:11.500 to describe it.

00:18:12.720 What sign

00:18:13.560 are you waiting for?

00:18:15.560 What do you expect

00:18:16.500 your pastor, priest,

00:18:17.640 or bishop to tell you?

00:18:19.600 By the way,

00:18:20.060 your relationship

00:18:20.700 with God is personal.

00:18:23.040 Stop waiting for man.

00:18:25.340 Ask him,

00:18:27.600 should I vote

00:18:28.780 and who should I vote for

00:18:30.660 after you've done

00:18:31.800 your homework

00:18:32.720 and answered

00:18:33.420 those questions?

00:18:34.220 Let me tell you

00:18:36.580 about real estate agents

00:18:37.480 I trust.

00:18:38.040 I have a series

00:18:38.700 of qualities

00:18:39.380 that I look for

00:18:40.040 in a person

00:18:40.460 if I'm going to do

00:18:41.140 business with them.

00:18:42.140 I'm sure you do too.

00:18:42.920 I look for honesty.

00:18:44.600 I look for a willingness

00:18:46.220 to take the blame

00:18:47.540 even when it's really

00:18:48.380 not their fault.

00:18:49.800 I look for a willingness

00:18:51.180 to work hard,

00:18:52.360 try to get the job done right,

00:18:54.500 and right the first time.

00:18:56.100 I look for competence,

00:18:57.320 for knowledge,

00:18:58.220 capability.

00:18:59.360 So, when I started

00:19:00.180 a business to connect you

00:19:01.380 with real estate agents,

00:19:02.520 I looked for the ones

00:19:04.220 I knew I could trust

00:19:05.720 that fit all

00:19:07.000 of those categories.

00:19:08.240 When you write to us

00:19:10.120 and tell us

00:19:10.720 where you're moving to

00:19:12.160 or where you're trying

00:19:13.260 to sell a house,

00:19:14.660 we will send you

00:19:15.500 the real estate agents

00:19:16.700 in that area

00:19:17.680 that I trust,

00:19:18.520 the ones that you're

00:19:19.320 going to be working with,

00:19:20.320 and they will hook you up

00:19:22.040 with the best people

00:19:23.640 in the business,

00:19:24.440 the people who sometimes

00:19:25.340 literally work around

00:19:26.400 the clock to get you

00:19:27.440 into a home

00:19:28.140 or to get your home

00:19:29.340 sold or both.

00:19:30.740 Don't take my word for it.

00:19:39.720 Now, back to the podcast.

00:19:42.120 This is the best

00:19:43.560 of the Glenn Beck Program.

00:19:45.560 Welcome to the Glenn Beck Program.

00:19:49.220 I want to talk to you

00:19:50.640 about change.

00:19:52.460 We have, as a society,

00:19:54.220 wanted change

00:19:54.940 for a very long time.

00:19:56.100 Under George W. Bush,

00:19:57.260 I wanted change

00:19:58.840 to transparency

00:19:59.960 and accountability.

00:20:01.880 But when Barack Obama

00:20:03.680 was offering change,

00:20:05.400 no one would describe

00:20:06.560 what change.

00:20:07.560 We asked over and over again,

00:20:09.080 what does he mean

00:20:10.100 by change?

00:20:10.900 Well, what he meant

00:20:11.720 was, quote,

00:20:13.000 the fundamental transformation

00:20:14.460 of the United States

00:20:15.700 of America.

00:20:17.080 So, people still

00:20:18.640 wanted change after that.

00:20:20.200 And change came

00:20:21.160 in the form

00:20:21.840 of Donald Trump,

00:20:23.420 a less-than-perfect

00:20:25.480 messenger.

00:20:26.160 But the only one

00:20:28.060 that could break

00:20:28.940 through the system

00:20:30.080 that had been

00:20:30.680 so corrupt,

00:20:33.280 well, because

00:20:34.460 people didn't like

00:20:36.840 the way he, you know,

00:20:38.000 spoke,

00:20:39.040 because of, honestly,

00:20:41.520 the lies that the media

00:20:43.220 told us,

00:20:44.380 that he was a Russian agent,

00:20:46.480 that he was doing

00:20:47.320 all kinds of things,

00:20:48.540 because they persecuted him

00:20:51.120 and continue to,

00:20:52.720 people were tired

00:20:54.380 of, oh,

00:20:55.780 all of this

00:20:56.540 back and forth arguing.

00:20:58.400 And so,

00:20:58.780 who stepped in?

00:21:00.000 Joe Biden,

00:21:01.480 a guy who said,

00:21:02.440 look, you know me.

00:21:03.960 I've been around forever.

00:21:05.900 I don't represent

00:21:07.860 radical change.

00:21:09.720 What I represent

00:21:10.940 is a return to normalcy.

00:21:13.360 Remember?

00:21:14.640 I'm going to return us

00:21:16.020 back to normalcy.

00:21:17.080 So, we did get change,

00:21:19.640 but did we go back

00:21:21.160 to normalcy?

00:21:23.200 We did get change

00:21:24.760 with Obama,

00:21:26.540 but did we get

00:21:27.400 transparency,

00:21:28.560 which he promised?

00:21:30.940 Biden,

00:21:31.780 we did get change,

00:21:33.360 but did we get

00:21:34.620 a return to normalcy?

00:21:36.600 Under Donald Trump,

00:21:38.120 we did get change.

00:21:39.480 We got a change

00:21:42.140 in the way

00:21:42.600 everything,

00:21:43.520 everybody behaved

00:21:44.640 in Washington

00:21:47.360 and in the media,

00:21:48.400 but we also had

00:21:50.060 an end to wars.

00:21:51.760 We also had a change

00:21:52.980 in our economy.

00:21:54.140 We also had a change

00:21:55.440 in African American

00:21:57.880 and Hispanic job numbers

00:21:59.500 being higher

00:22:00.180 than they've ever been before.

00:22:02.240 Then COVID hit,

00:22:04.120 and we got change again.

00:22:05.500 Is our moral compass

00:22:08.400 truer today?

00:22:12.560 Truer towards north

00:22:14.100 or truer towards south,

00:22:16.620 the opposite direction?

00:22:20.700 Are we back to the America 0.92

00:22:23.060 that we all understand

00:22:23.960 and really want?

00:22:25.220 Most of us,

00:22:25.980 even Democrats,

00:22:26.880 want a return

00:22:28.120 to the Constitution

00:22:28.900 and common sense.

00:22:29.840 We all grew up under it.

00:22:31.420 We saw that it was flawed.

00:22:33.120 That's why we wanted

00:22:33.900 the change of transparency.

00:22:35.500 Now,

00:22:38.320 Kamala promises change,

00:22:40.140 but again,

00:22:40.660 I ask,

00:22:41.300 to what?

00:22:43.040 See,

00:22:43.360 Kamala Harris

00:22:43.980 is now being seen

00:22:45.160 as,

00:22:45.860 by many,

00:22:46.700 the candidate

00:22:47.320 of change,

00:22:49.120 representing a shift

00:22:50.280 in leadership

00:22:51.000 and direction.

00:22:52.800 Now,

00:22:53.020 I can't figure this out

00:22:54.220 because I want to take her

00:22:56.480 in her own words.

00:22:57.920 You want to change,

00:22:59.340 what do you want

00:22:59.800 to change from?

00:23:00.840 You want to change

00:23:01.540 from some of these

00:23:02.200 insane ideas

00:23:04.400 like what's happened

00:23:05.460 on our border,

00:23:06.660 the Afghanistan thing,

00:23:08.560 the way we're decimating

00:23:09.820 ourselves and our military

00:23:11.800 on the world stage,

00:23:13.640 the way we're spending

00:23:14.820 out of control

00:23:15.700 on things

00:23:16.520 that you don't want,

00:23:18.020 the way our children

00:23:18.960 are being treated

00:23:19.860 in school

00:23:20.560 and gender-affirming care.

00:23:23.220 You do want change.

00:23:25.180 So she offers that.

00:23:27.920 Or does she?

00:23:29.160 Listen to her own words

00:23:31.300 from The View

00:23:32.140 two days ago.

00:23:33.380 Well,

00:23:33.880 if anything,

00:23:35.820 would you have done

00:23:37.480 something differently

00:23:38.380 than President Biden

00:23:39.500 during the past four years?

00:23:41.080 There is not a thing

00:23:43.740 that comes to mind

00:23:44.820 in terms of,

00:23:45.720 and I've been a part

00:23:46.780 of most of the decisions

00:23:49.000 that have had impact.

00:23:51.660 Aha.

00:23:52.640 Okay.

00:23:53.900 Well,

00:23:54.140 this raises

00:23:54.820 an important question.

00:23:56.700 I mean,

00:23:57.300 if you're satisfied

00:23:58.100 with the status quo,

00:23:59.920 with the policies

00:24:01.480 of the last four years

00:24:02.940 that she was part of

00:24:05.380 and didn't have a problem

00:24:06.440 with any of the major policies,

00:24:08.500 how can you be

00:24:10.580 an agent of change?

00:24:12.480 If you're fine with it,

00:24:14.160 then I understand your vote.

00:24:15.400 But if you are not fine with it,

00:24:17.180 if you want to change,

00:24:18.320 she's not the change candidate.

00:24:20.620 Let's look at what this means.

00:24:22.160 If you feel

00:24:22.980 that the economic challenges

00:24:24.560 we face today,

00:24:25.660 rising inflation,

00:24:26.720 increased energy prices,

00:24:28.020 growing government control

00:24:29.260 over certain sectors,

00:24:30.640 are acceptable,

00:24:32.180 then perhaps you don't seek change.

00:24:34.540 But if you believe

00:24:35.580 that the approaches

00:24:36.260 in immigration,

00:24:37.840 crime,

00:24:38.500 education,

00:24:40.060 foreign policy,

00:24:42.140 monetary policy,

00:24:43.380 over the last four years

00:24:44.660 have made your life better,

00:24:47.540 then keep things

00:24:49.920 the way they are.

00:24:51.220 And, you know,

00:24:51.940 you feel like this

00:24:52.680 is the right path forward,

00:24:53.700 so keep it as you are.

00:24:56.040 However,

00:24:56.960 for many Americans,

00:24:58.740 the last four years

00:24:59.840 have brought up

00:25:00.460 more hardship

00:25:01.520 than hope.

00:25:02.780 One side of this election

00:25:04.140 clearly disagrees

00:25:05.660 with the direction

00:25:06.320 we're heading.

00:25:06.860 They believe

00:25:08.460 true change

00:25:09.560 involves reducing

00:25:10.680 the federal government's

00:25:12.080 size and power,

00:25:14.040 allowing more freedom

00:25:15.280 and flexibility

00:25:16.200 at the state

00:25:17.260 and local levels,

00:25:18.860 and stop

00:25:19.760 just ceding

00:25:21.060 so much power

00:25:21.960 to the federal government.

00:25:23.420 This view,

00:25:25.020 a constitutional view,

00:25:26.760 seeks to empower

00:25:27.860 you

00:25:28.640 and your community,

00:25:30.020 not by expanding

00:25:31.620 federal oversight,

00:25:32.500 but by dialing it back

00:25:34.720 to encourage

00:25:35.420 self-governance

00:25:36.400 and personal responsibility.

00:25:38.780 Who is doing

00:25:39.480 a better job?

00:25:40.960 The state government

00:25:42.040 in Florida?

00:25:44.100 The local people

00:25:45.880 in Asheville

00:25:47.220 and the neighbors

00:25:48.220 that are just kind of

00:25:49.100 getting together

00:25:49.780 and doing it?

00:25:50.700 Or FEMA, 0.97

00:25:51.520 the federal government?

00:25:52.720 Which one

00:25:53.580 is doing it better?

00:25:56.260 Donald Trump believes

00:25:57.820 that you

00:25:58.720 will do things better,

00:26:00.280 that the state

00:26:02.240 would make

00:26:03.080 better decisions,

00:26:03.880 and the federal government

00:26:05.100 should be there

00:26:06.020 to help assist,

00:26:07.860 perhaps in money,

00:26:09.680 but give the money

00:26:10.700 to the local people,

00:26:12.580 let them do it.

00:26:14.140 Right?

00:26:17.880 Now,

00:26:18.620 the change

00:26:19.060 they are talking about,

00:26:20.500 she is a dramatic

00:26:22.000 agent of change,

00:26:23.720 because they're now

00:26:25.000 talking about changing

00:26:26.100 our constitutional system

00:26:27.820 and capitalism.

00:26:30.720 One proposal

00:26:31.600 is to expand

00:26:32.440 the number of justices

00:26:33.540 on the Supreme Court

00:26:34.500 to 15.

00:26:35.820 Now,

00:26:36.020 historically,

00:26:36.740 adding seats

00:26:37.380 to a court

00:26:37.960 has been a move

00:26:39.060 seen in countries

00:26:40.500 just before they slide

00:26:42.020 into authoritarianism.

00:26:43.600 But don't look

00:26:44.800 at that,

00:26:45.620 right?

00:26:46.600 Just,

00:26:46.980 they're going to

00:26:47.380 increase fairness

00:26:48.320 by changing

00:26:49.360 something that we

00:26:50.420 have had

00:26:50.960 from the beginning.

00:26:53.280 This was done

00:26:54.420 by Hugo Chavez

00:26:55.680 in Venezuela.

00:26:56.440 Viktor Orban

00:26:57.780 in Hungary,

00:26:59.000 where expanding

00:26:59.680 the judiciary

00:27:00.380 allowed those regimes

00:27:01.840 to consolidate power

00:27:03.180 and silence dissent.

00:27:05.300 Changing the makeup

00:27:06.320 of the court

00:27:07.520 would weaken

00:27:08.580 its independence

00:27:09.620 and politicize

00:27:10.900 one of our most

00:27:11.660 vital institutions.

00:27:13.120 Another idea

00:27:13.860 on the table

00:27:14.500 is setting price controls

00:27:16.580 to address inflation,

00:27:18.360 a strategy

00:27:18.980 that has repeatedly

00:27:20.120 failed throughout history

00:27:21.660 in every country

00:27:22.920 it has been tried in.

00:27:25.240 For instance,

00:27:25.840 price controls

00:27:26.740 were tried

00:27:27.240 in the 1970s

00:27:28.220 during the Nixon 0.70

00:27:28.840 administration.

00:27:30.080 And rather than

00:27:30.700 curbing inflation,

00:27:32.020 they led to shortages,

00:27:33.800 a stagnant economy,

00:27:35.580 and a worsening

00:27:36.680 of the economic crisis.

00:27:38.600 Government interference

00:27:39.860 in market pricing

00:27:41.300 has never resulted

00:27:42.600 in any kind

00:27:43.680 of stability

00:27:44.260 or growth.

00:27:45.880 Then there's a talk

00:27:47.200 of eliminating

00:27:47.800 the filibuster

00:27:48.680 and potentially now,

00:27:50.740 according to Tim Waltz

00:27:51.580 two days ago,

00:27:52.360 dismantling

00:27:53.060 the electoral college.

00:27:54.480 Both of these

00:27:56.020 are long-standing

00:27:57.200 pillars of American

00:27:58.560 governance

00:27:59.180 that are rooted

00:28:00.340 in the principles

00:28:01.440 of balance

00:28:02.620 and fairness.

00:28:05.440 The filibuster

00:28:06.140 allows for extended

00:28:07.260 debate

00:28:07.720 and ensures

00:28:08.460 that major legislation

00:28:09.920 has a broad support

00:28:11.240 before moving it forward.

00:28:13.300 Removing it

00:28:14.220 could lead

00:28:15.040 to more extreme

00:28:16.020 swings in policy

00:28:17.440 based on which party

00:28:18.640 holds power

00:28:19.420 at the moment.

00:28:20.620 Democrats,

00:28:21.200 do you want

00:28:22.200 the Republicans

00:28:22.960 to have more power?

00:28:25.420 Meanwhile,

00:28:26.300 the electoral college,

00:28:27.680 which protects

00:28:28.240 the interest

00:28:28.820 of smaller states

00:28:30.100 and areas

00:28:30.760 and prevents

00:28:31.860 a few populist regions

00:28:33.500 from dominating

00:28:34.400 the nation's leadership,

00:28:36.080 ensures that

00:28:36.860 every part of America

00:28:38.160 has a voice

00:28:39.560 that matters.

00:28:40.740 When you go in

00:28:41.880 to vote,

00:28:42.780 do you vote

00:28:43.540 because you think

00:28:45.860 your voice counts?

00:28:47.020 Or do you stay

00:28:47.820 at home because

00:28:48.320 you think your voice

00:28:49.100 doesn't count?

00:28:50.580 The electoral college

00:28:51.820 gives small states

00:28:53.240 and small regions

00:28:54.320 with scarce populations

00:28:55.860 a chance to have

00:28:57.320 their vote count.

00:28:59.120 Removing it

00:29:00.060 would fundamentally

00:29:01.180 alter how we elect

00:29:02.300 our leaders,

00:29:03.280 concentrating all

00:29:04.320 of the power

00:29:04.840 in a few urban centers

00:29:06.420 and marginalizing

00:29:08.080 rural America.

00:29:10.380 That's what that means.

00:29:12.240 Now,

00:29:12.420 these are not changes

00:29:13.460 that return us

00:29:14.120 to normalcy

00:29:14.940 or even address

00:29:16.100 the current issues

00:29:17.040 facing our families

00:29:17.960 and communities.

00:29:18.680 Instead,

00:29:19.960 they represent

00:29:20.500 a shift

00:29:21.100 towards something

00:29:21.860 fundamentally different,

00:29:24.000 something that Americans

00:29:25.100 will not recognize

00:29:26.640 in the end.

00:29:29.000 Do you believe

00:29:30.140 our founding documents

00:29:31.580 were inspired by God?

00:29:34.760 Yes or no?

00:29:36.320 If you are a Christian, 0.97

00:29:38.180 that's what's at stake,

00:29:40.640 our founding documents.

00:29:42.380 Do you think God

00:29:46.200 will hold you blameless

00:29:47.700 for blowing this election off?

00:29:50.200 Do you think it matters

00:29:51.800 to your children

00:29:52.700 and their future?

00:29:54.400 Do you want your children

00:29:55.620 to live under a system

00:29:58.340 where justice returns

00:30:01.000 to what real equal justice means?

00:30:04.660 Or do you want this

00:30:06.120 to continue and grow?

00:30:07.380 So as you think about

00:30:09.720 what kind of change

00:30:10.520 you want,

00:30:11.820 consider what change

00:30:12.960 actually means.

00:30:15.040 Is it a continuation

00:30:15.900 of the policies

00:30:17.080 from the last four years

00:30:18.680 and a doubling down?

00:30:20.700 Or is it a shift

00:30:21.900 towards smaller government,

00:30:23.620 more freedom,

00:30:25.020 a return to the values,

00:30:26.240 the traditions,

00:30:27.020 and the Constitution

00:30:28.260 that has truly made

00:30:30.760 America unique?

00:30:32.680 That is what's at stake.

00:30:36.760 Share this hour

00:30:38.160 from the podcast

00:30:39.260 with everyone,

00:30:40.620 every Christian you know.

00:30:43.320 They need to ask themselves

00:30:45.440 these questions.

00:30:47.380 If 41 million Christians 0.99

00:30:50.160 sit this election out,

00:30:53.160 it is on the head

00:30:55.020 of the Christians 0.95

00:30:56.620 whether we remain

00:30:58.680 a Judeo-Christian-led country 0.96

00:31:02.020 or not.

00:31:04.340 Do you believe

00:31:05.520 your children

00:31:06.100 would be better off

00:31:07.220 in Europe today,

00:31:09.640 which no longer holds

00:31:12.440 to the Judeo-Christian values?

00:31:16.060 Would they be better off

00:31:17.460 in a system like that?

00:31:18.700 Because that's what's coming here

00:31:20.760 on a global scale.

00:31:23.800 It is very, very simple.

00:31:27.080 And if you think,

00:31:28.540 I can't vote

00:31:29.300 because the election

00:31:30.640 is going to be stolen,

00:31:32.020 not if 41 million Christians 0.60

00:31:35.600 go out to vote.

00:31:39.100 If 10% of those Christians 1.00

00:31:41.940 who say,

00:31:43.180 I'm not voting

00:31:43.840 for one reason or another

00:31:45.080 would go out and vote,

00:31:46.420 this would end

00:31:47.760 in a landslide.

00:31:49.080 And that is exactly

00:31:50.640 what this election

00:31:51.980 needs to be.

00:31:53.300 You can fake,

00:31:54.900 but only so far.

00:31:56.620 I ask you in humility,

00:32:03.160 Christians, 1.00

00:32:04.080 get off your ass 1.00

00:32:07.080 and vote. 1.00

00:32:09.580 This is not just about

00:32:13.040 your voice in Washington.

00:32:15.700 This is the basic hurdle

00:32:18.100 that says,

00:32:19.000 this is where I stand.

00:32:20.760 Lord,

00:32:22.360 I'm signing up

00:32:23.560 to stand for these principles.

00:32:25.760 And if the guys I voted for

00:32:27.760 violate those principles,

00:32:29.100 I'm on record

00:32:30.260 voting for these principles

00:32:31.740 and I'll stand against them.

00:32:36.340 Sign up.

00:32:38.260 Vote.

00:32:38.740 You're listening to the best

00:32:41.980 of the Glenn Beck program.

00:32:47.480 The co-chair of the

00:32:48.860 Republican National Committee,

00:32:51.360 also the daughter-in-law

00:32:53.060 of the number 45,

00:32:55.600 President Donald J. Trump,

00:32:57.440 and somebody who is

00:32:59.760 originally from North Carolina,

00:33:01.700 Laura Trump.

00:33:02.680 Laura, how are you?

00:33:04.640 Hey, good morning, Glenn.

00:33:05.720 Well, I'm obviously

00:33:08.220 very focused on North Carolina

00:33:10.140 and now we're focused

00:33:10.920 on Florida.

00:33:11.800 I know.

00:33:12.300 You're exactly right.

00:33:13.000 We need to make sure

00:33:13.600 every single person,

00:33:15.120 no matter if you're voting

00:33:16.240 for a Republican, Democrat,

00:33:17.760 or a third-party candidate,

00:33:19.260 has an opportunity

00:33:20.020 to vote in this election.

00:33:21.260 It is absolutely vital.

00:33:22.400 So before we get to

00:33:23.560 the other things

00:33:24.260 that are going on,

00:33:25.180 what, if anything,

00:33:27.120 is anyone doing

00:33:28.200 to make sure

00:33:29.160 those votes

00:33:30.140 can be cast?

00:33:33.100 Yeah, well,

00:33:33.720 the state legislature

00:33:34.500 actually meets today.

00:33:36.500 So we're going to get

00:33:37.560 a lot of information

00:33:38.600 on that.

00:33:40.180 Here's the thing, though.

00:33:41.320 I think that we need

00:33:42.480 to make sure

00:33:43.140 that everybody,

00:33:44.260 like I said,

00:33:44.980 has an opportunity

00:33:45.620 to vote.

00:33:46.280 And what we did

00:33:46.880 from the RNC

00:33:47.720 is we sent a 10-point

00:33:48.900 bulletin

00:33:49.880 to Governor Roy Cooper

00:33:51.500 and to the State Assembly

00:33:54.280 to say,

00:33:54.980 listen,

00:33:55.400 we want to make sure

00:33:56.560 with these 10 items

00:33:58.120 that everybody

00:33:58.680 has an opportunity

00:33:59.480 to vote.

00:34:00.180 And these are things,

00:34:01.000 Glenn,

00:34:01.260 like making sure

00:34:02.180 that if you're a person

00:34:02.940 who's been displaced

00:34:03.660 by this hurricane

00:34:04.380 and you're in another county,

00:34:05.720 you're allowed to vote

00:34:06.540 in that county

00:34:07.060 or maybe take

00:34:07.640 your absentee ballot in

00:34:08.880 and turn it in

00:34:09.400 in that county,

00:34:10.400 that there are

00:34:11.200 temporary structures

00:34:12.200 maybe in place

00:34:13.100 for people to go vote

00:34:14.380 in those counties

00:34:15.060 that were really destroyed

00:34:16.140 or they can use

00:34:17.500 alternative locations.

00:34:18.860 Common sense approach,

00:34:19.860 making sure

00:34:20.420 that we are leaving

00:34:21.340 nothing to chance.

00:34:22.120 And then we're also

00:34:22.920 asking for people

00:34:24.120 who want to volunteer

00:34:24.880 to come out

00:34:25.580 and volunteer.

00:34:26.400 We've set up

00:34:26.980 a website,

00:34:28.100 DonaldJTrump.com

00:34:29.300 slash hurricane

00:34:30.240 is where people can go.

00:34:32.040 If you want to come,

00:34:33.620 make sure that people

00:34:34.560 are able to reach

00:34:35.740 these voting locations.

00:34:37.400 Make sure we get

00:34:38.000 the word out

00:34:38.620 because some of these people

00:34:39.420 still do not have access

00:34:40.860 to understand

00:34:41.780 that this is an option

00:34:42.660 for them.

00:34:43.320 So we're asking

00:34:44.080 for volunteers

00:34:44.660 to come help us

00:34:45.740 in North Carolina

00:34:46.440 and I assume

00:34:47.080 it'll probably be

00:34:47.920 the same situation

00:34:49.120 in Florida.

00:34:49.940 So we'll report back

00:34:51.360 on what ultimately happens

00:34:52.380 but we are certainly

00:34:53.060 moving on our end

00:34:53.920 from our end.

00:34:54.500 All right.

00:34:54.720 So what is,

00:34:55.700 it's DonaldJTrump.com

00:34:57.680 slash hurricane?

00:34:59.480 What is the address?

00:35:00.360 DonaldJTrump.com

00:35:01.460 slash hurricane

00:35:02.300 is exactly right.

00:35:03.880 And everybody came up there.

00:35:05.640 You are originally

00:35:07.080 from North Carolina.

00:35:09.060 You went to college

00:35:09.760 there as well.

00:35:11.960 How do you think

00:35:13.320 things are going

00:35:14.040 on the ground

00:35:14.840 outside of the election?

00:35:19.140 Where you get

00:35:19.920 your information

00:35:20.720 will really determine

00:35:21.860 what you're saying

00:35:22.600 about that.

00:35:23.420 The media would

00:35:24.320 have you believe

00:35:24.940 that everything

00:35:25.660 is sunshine,

00:35:26.360 lollipops,

00:35:26.780 and rainbows

00:35:27.160 on the ground there.

00:35:27.840 But I'll tell you,

00:35:29.160 Glenn,

00:35:29.500 I talk to people

00:35:30.280 every single day

00:35:31.020 who actually live

00:35:31.720 in these parts

00:35:32.220 of North Carolina

00:35:33.020 who have been,

00:35:34.700 I mean,

00:35:35.000 it's a devastating

00:35:35.980 situation there.

00:35:37.300 They have lost

00:35:37.860 everything,

00:35:38.420 some people,

00:35:39.380 and they do not feel

00:35:40.420 like the response

00:35:41.220 has been adequate

00:35:41.860 on the ground.

00:35:43.080 There are still folks

00:35:44.240 who say no one

00:35:44.920 has even come

00:35:45.540 to my part

00:35:46.580 of North Carolina,

00:35:47.320 my neighborhood,

00:35:47.980 my town,

00:35:48.880 and it really

00:35:50.320 has seemed like

00:35:51.280 the response

00:35:51.960 has been terrible,

00:35:53.520 quite frankly,

00:35:54.180 at this point.

00:35:54.860 And, you know,

00:35:55.760 there's a lot

00:35:56.200 of argument

00:35:56.600 out there

00:35:57.140 from folks

00:35:58.120 on the left

00:35:58.700 who will say,

00:35:59.440 you know,

00:36:00.200 the $750 loan

00:36:02.080 that we're giving

00:36:02.700 people is exactly

00:36:04.660 what they need

00:36:05.460 right now,

00:36:06.160 and no one

00:36:07.060 should be worried

00:36:07.700 about the fact

00:36:08.320 that we've spent

00:36:08.800 a billion dollars

00:36:10.060 on resettling

00:36:11.140 and rehoming

00:36:11.780 migrants.

00:36:12.880 That is very upsetting

00:36:14.000 to the folks

00:36:14.880 in Western North Carolina

00:36:16.060 right now,

00:36:16.620 because $750

00:36:17.560 is not going

00:36:18.960 to go very far,

00:36:19.740 and it is a loan.

00:36:20.500 I think they're supposed

00:36:21.100 to pay that back

00:36:21.940 at some point.

00:36:22.680 That's crazy.

00:36:23.240 But it's crazy

00:36:25.100 and it's infuriating.

00:36:26.280 Yeah,

00:36:26.520 and if you don't

00:36:27.320 pay it back,

00:36:28.200 they can take possession

00:36:30.100 of your home

00:36:31.020 for $750

00:36:32.220 alone.

00:36:33.940 That's nuts.

00:36:36.120 And let's just,

00:36:37.100 let's call a spade

00:36:37.980 a spade.

00:36:38.400 If we are giving

00:36:38.940 even $1

00:36:39.660 to rehome

00:36:41.660 and resettle

00:36:42.240 people who broke

00:36:43.140 our laws

00:36:43.720 to come here,

00:36:44.380 who the first act

00:36:45.360 they did

00:36:45.840 coming into

00:36:46.620 the United States

00:36:47.300 is to break the law,

00:36:48.540 and you have Americans

00:36:49.520 who are struggling

00:36:50.400 who have lost

00:36:51.100 their homes,

00:36:51.680 lost all their possessions,

00:36:52.680 and don't know

00:36:53.780 how they are going

00:36:54.560 to live the next

00:36:55.920 couple days

00:36:56.540 of their life,

00:36:57.180 let alone

00:36:57.560 the rest of their life,

00:36:59.260 it is a slap

00:37:00.200 in the face

00:37:00.840 that we have given

00:37:01.740 over a billion dollars

00:37:03.320 to that cause,

00:37:04.220 and it's $750

00:37:05.300 in a loan

00:37:06.240 to these people.

00:37:07.180 It is disgraceful.

00:37:08.340 But I can tell you,

00:37:09.000 I think what Donald Trump

00:37:10.100 did was actually

00:37:10.720 very important.

00:37:11.820 You heard him talk

00:37:12.500 about it in his

00:37:13.220 Butler rally

00:37:13.820 on Saturday,

00:37:14.940 and Elon Musk

00:37:15.620 was there,

00:37:16.320 but when he found out

00:37:17.500 that communications

00:37:18.460 were down

00:37:19.120 in many places

00:37:20.120 in North Carolina,

00:37:21.080 emergency services

00:37:22.020 were not accessible

00:37:22.820 for people,

00:37:23.760 he called up Elon Musk

00:37:25.160 and said,

00:37:25.540 hey, can we get

00:37:26.120 Starlink satellites,

00:37:27.820 and can we get people

00:37:28.800 set up in North Carolina,

00:37:30.180 and Elon sent Starlink

00:37:31.960 to Western North Carolina.

00:37:33.740 It was, you know,

00:37:34.880 a miracle,

00:37:35.780 quite frankly,

00:37:36.360 for a lot of people.

00:37:37.620 All of these

00:37:38.120 emergency services

00:37:39.160 were back online

00:37:39.960 and able to communicate

00:37:40.920 with people

00:37:41.480 and get help

00:37:42.400 to people who needed it.

00:37:43.860 Guess who did that?

00:37:44.600 Donald Trump,

00:37:45.160 the guy who's not even

00:37:46.040 actually the President

00:37:47.060 of the United States

00:37:48.060 right now.

00:37:48.960 And so here he is,

00:37:49.900 yet in another opportunity,

00:37:51.060 acting as a leader

00:37:52.260 when he is not

00:37:53.260 technically the leader.

00:37:54.540 Yes, but I believe, Glenn,

00:37:55.880 he ultimately will be

00:37:56.900 come November 5th.

00:37:57.840 Yeah, I think so, too.

00:37:59.440 I can't imagine

00:38:00.320 how it doesn't go his way.

00:38:02.900 Yesterday we found out

00:38:04.380 that a terrorist

00:38:06.040 from Afghanistan

00:38:07.880 that this government

00:38:09.340 let in,

00:38:10.940 we've been tracking,

00:38:12.980 and he was plotting

00:38:14.160 a terrorist attack

00:38:15.880 on Election Day.

00:38:17.120 I mean,

00:38:18.240 the country

00:38:19.220 is completely

00:38:20.600 out of control.

00:38:22.620 And other than hypnosis,

00:38:24.540 I just don't know

00:38:25.740 how America says,

00:38:27.680 I want more of this.

00:38:29.940 Well, and let's talk

00:38:31.140 about that, too.

00:38:32.000 This has been

00:38:33.600 highly underreported

00:38:34.980 as far as I'm concerned. 0.94

00:38:36.320 This guy is an ISIS terrorist. 0.81

00:38:38.640 Do you remember 0.75

00:38:39.040 what happened with ISIS

00:38:39.860 with Donald Trump

00:38:40.580 in the White House?

00:38:41.240 Uh-huh.

00:38:41.520 ISIS was eliminated.

00:38:42.900 He tells the famous story

00:38:44.240 about how when he got in there,

00:38:45.400 he talked to, you know,

00:38:46.800 his top brass in the military,

00:38:47.980 and he said,

00:38:48.560 hey, how long is it going

00:38:49.860 to take for us

00:38:50.620 to get rid of ISIS?

00:38:51.480 What do we need to do?

00:38:52.260 And they said, sir,

00:38:53.240 it could take years.

00:38:54.340 We don't know

00:38:54.880 how long it'll take

00:38:55.600 because we have

00:38:56.620 all of these, you know,

00:38:57.920 handcuffs on what

00:38:58.720 we're able to do.

00:38:59.480 And he said,

00:38:59.860 if I take those off

00:39:00.760 and I allow you to do

00:39:01.560 the job that needs to be done,

00:39:02.920 how long will it take?

00:39:03.780 And you know how long

00:39:04.420 it took?

00:39:04.940 Four weeks.

00:39:05.780 And ISIS was eliminated

00:39:07.180 when Donald Trump

00:39:07.880 was in the White House.

00:39:08.980 They are back now,

00:39:10.000 and we have a fully

00:39:10.980 open southern border.

00:39:12.340 We know that we've had

00:39:13.160 hundreds of people

00:39:13.940 on the terror watch list,

00:39:15.060 Glenn, that we know of.

00:39:15.980 Think about the ones

00:39:16.520 we don't even know about

00:39:17.500 who have been able

00:39:18.280 to cross our border.

00:39:19.540 No doubt they are planning

00:39:20.800 an attack on America.

00:39:22.040 No doubt they want

00:39:22.680 to cause harm here

00:39:23.460 to American citizens.

00:39:24.940 And the fact that

00:39:25.620 this hasn't gotten

00:39:26.340 more interest

00:39:27.180 from our mainstream media

00:39:28.520 is, quite frankly,

00:39:29.500 a disgrace.

00:39:30.520 I cannot believe that.

00:39:32.020 You're right.

00:39:32.520 We cannot operate

00:39:33.680 in this fashion

00:39:34.560 going forward.

00:39:35.800 And I think that's

00:39:36.600 what the American people

00:39:37.620 are starting to understand.

00:39:39.500 Joe Biden himself

00:39:40.340 came out the other day,

00:39:41.320 stepped all over Kamala Harris 0.99

00:39:42.660 and her plan to distance 0.88

00:39:43.980 herself from Joe

00:39:44.980 and said,

00:39:45.740 that's right,

00:39:46.200 she's been right there

00:39:46.980 beside me every step

00:39:48.240 of the way,

00:39:48.620 every distance I made.

00:39:50.180 And yeah,

00:39:50.600 we've been a team

00:39:51.660 the whole way.

00:39:52.780 Nobody believes

00:39:53.900 that Kamala Harris

00:39:54.740 would be any different

00:39:55.640 than what we've seen

00:39:56.580 in the past four years

00:39:57.440 because she has been there

00:39:58.440 for the past four years.

00:39:59.720 And that's why I believe

00:40:00.900 that people are voting

00:40:02.220 for Donald Trump this month.

00:40:03.180 She said on The View

00:40:04.440 two days ago,

00:40:05.900 I wouldn't change a thing

00:40:07.120 that we did.

00:40:07.920 I mean,

00:40:08.100 I couldn't believe that.

00:40:10.000 How are you the agent

00:40:11.140 of change?

00:40:12.780 I think she got caught

00:40:14.080 off guard in that question

00:40:15.280 and she didn't expect

00:40:16.340 such a tough question

00:40:17.520 from the ladies of The View.

00:40:20.260 Yeah.

00:40:21.020 Yeah, exactly.

00:40:21.920 And when you look

00:40:23.100 at the right track,

00:40:23.960 wrong track polling

00:40:24.740 right now in this country,

00:40:26.080 nearly three quarters

00:40:26.980 of Americans feel like 0.61

00:40:28.280 we are on the wrong track

00:40:29.520 in America.

00:40:30.640 If you're on the wrong track,

00:40:32.280 you need a real change agent

00:40:33.780 and they know

00:40:34.320 that's Donald Trump. 1.00

00:40:35.240 He always rapes that way. 1.00

00:40:36.920 And so Kamala Harris 0.99

00:40:38.360 is more of the same.

00:40:39.180 If not, Glenn,

00:40:39.780 worse because we know

00:40:41.300 she actually believes

00:40:42.060 on these radical ideas.

00:40:42.980 Oh, I know.

00:40:43.500 I know.

00:40:43.960 She's behind a lot of it.

00:40:45.540 Let me ask you,

00:40:46.420 why, maybe it's just us,

00:40:48.600 but we were just talking

00:40:49.420 about it off the air

00:40:50.140 that it looks like

00:40:52.500 the Democrats

00:40:53.020 are changing strategy.

00:40:54.640 She was not going

00:40:55.820 to answer anything.

00:40:56.960 And now all of a sudden

00:40:57.840 she's popping up everywhere

00:40:58.980 and not doing well,

00:41:00.860 I might add.

00:41:02.500 But why did they change strategy?

00:41:04.880 Do you have any idea?

00:41:05.560 Well, yeah,

00:41:07.600 when you're chugging a beer

00:41:08.740 on TV with Stephen Colbert

00:41:10.460 while there's a Category 5 hurricane

00:41:12.420 about to smash into

00:41:13.520 the United States,

00:41:14.900 that's probably not

00:41:15.960 a great look.

00:41:17.140 When you're on,

00:41:18.040 you know,

00:41:18.280 Call Her Daddy

00:41:19.040 or whatever, 0.99

00:41:19.840 that disgusting podcast,

00:41:21.800 probably not a great look

00:41:23.000 right now.

00:41:23.520 I think it's because

00:41:24.420 the American people

00:41:25.560 realize that they cannot

00:41:27.520 trust someone

00:41:28.280 who cannot be

00:41:29.580 in front of,

00:41:30.260 you know,

00:41:31.360 their TV screen,

00:41:32.280 cannot be asked

00:41:32.820 a simple question,

00:41:33.840 who's hiding

00:41:34.440 in the basement.

00:41:35.440 We see what the basement

00:41:36.560 strategy gets you

00:41:37.560 because we've got it

00:41:38.160 in the White House

00:41:38.740 right now

00:41:39.280 with Joe and Kamala.

00:41:40.800 And I guess they thought

00:41:41.860 that they could pull

00:41:42.460 another fast one

00:41:43.280 on the American people.

00:41:44.640 But I think the American

00:41:45.540 people are smart.

00:41:46.400 And I think they said,

00:41:47.620 wait a minute,

00:41:48.140 we saw this four years ago

00:41:49.700 and they tried to sell it

00:41:50.520 to us as COVID.

00:41:51.760 That's why they couldn't

00:41:52.480 have Joe Biden

00:41:53.100 out in front of people.

00:41:54.580 Now we see it again.

00:41:55.640 And this is not COVID times.

00:41:57.860 This is a person

00:41:58.580 who by all accounts

00:41:59.680 should be able to answer

00:42:00.480 basic questions

00:42:02.120 on basic ideas,

00:42:03.800 principles,

00:42:04.160 and policies

00:42:04.900 that she's running on.

00:42:06.620 And I guess

00:42:07.620 that they've estimated

00:42:08.680 that that's a good strategy.

00:42:10.220 But to your point,

00:42:11.360 it doesn't seem

00:42:12.180 like it's gone very well

00:42:13.440 so far for them.

00:42:14.820 So good luck to them.

00:42:16.040 The problem is

00:42:16.700 when you're trying

00:42:17.180 to sell people

00:42:18.000 something they don't

00:42:19.100 want to buy,

00:42:19.720 it doesn't matter

00:42:20.260 how you package it up.

00:42:21.620 No one is going

00:42:22.260 to want to buy it.

00:42:22.960 And so I think

00:42:23.580 they're starting

00:42:24.380 to run into an issue

00:42:25.380 with that as well.

00:42:26.300 Please feel free

00:42:27.020 to say no to this.

00:42:28.160 It's a personal question.

00:42:30.060 But I'd like to ask you

00:42:31.780 as a family member.

00:42:35.320 What is it like

00:42:37.160 to watch your father-in-law

00:42:40.500 shot, perhaps, live TV?

00:42:43.580 I don't know

00:42:43.860 if you were there.

00:42:45.460 And then to see

00:42:47.660 that he's on the golf course.

00:42:49.420 How is the family

00:42:50.720 dealing with this?

00:42:53.820 Yeah, I wasn't there

00:42:55.480 July 13th,

00:42:56.840 but Eric and I

00:42:57.480 were watching live

00:42:58.420 and we were watching

00:42:59.060 actually with our

00:42:59.700 two young children.

00:43:00.560 Oh my gosh.

00:43:01.240 And we thought,

00:43:02.200 yeah, we saw it happen.

00:43:04.360 You know,

00:43:05.060 it's one of those things

00:43:06.220 that's always been

00:43:07.120 in the back of all

00:43:07.860 of our minds,

00:43:08.380 I think,

00:43:08.900 for a long time

00:43:09.640 because, honestly,

00:43:10.520 you get to a point

00:43:11.400 and you say,

00:43:12.340 well, gosh,

00:43:12.760 they've gone after him

00:43:13.860 all of these different ways.

00:43:15.280 Things seem that

00:43:16.140 they have gotten so extreme

00:43:17.240 when it comes to

00:43:17.900 Donald Trump,

00:43:18.800 the lawfare,

00:43:20.000 the way that they've

00:43:20.700 tried to take him

00:43:21.280 off ballots

00:43:21.780 across the country,

00:43:23.140 all the attempts

00:43:23.800 to smear him,

00:43:24.620 the lies, etc.

00:43:26.180 You know,

00:43:26.480 at some point

00:43:27.220 after you call someone

00:43:28.180 a threat to democracy

00:43:29.200 and essentially

00:43:30.480 equate him with Hitler,

00:43:32.060 something has to happen

00:43:33.400 and maybe somebody

00:43:34.120 takes it a step too far

00:43:35.260 and so, of course,

00:43:36.340 in the back of our minds

00:43:37.120 we always thought about this

00:43:38.340 and I still worry

00:43:40.100 about him to this day

00:43:41.100 and I will always

00:43:41.900 worry about him,

00:43:42.680 so will Eric,

00:43:43.700 so will the rest

00:43:44.420 of the entire family

00:43:45.540 and I think the hardest thing

00:43:47.380 has been trying to explain

00:43:48.420 to our two kids

00:43:49.400 who are five and seven

00:43:50.420 why somebody's

00:43:52.060 trying to hurt grandpa.

00:43:53.580 You know,

00:43:53.880 they don't understand

00:43:55.080 what's going on

00:43:55.940 and they don't understand

00:43:56.800 why anyone would want

00:43:57.620 to do that

00:43:58.080 and it actually

00:43:58.580 takes you back

00:43:59.320 to like the baseline

00:44:01.360 of all of this

00:44:02.180 which is that

00:44:02.740 we're Americans

00:44:03.600 at the end of the day

00:44:04.600 and we should never,

00:44:06.040 no matter your politics,

00:44:07.560 ever want to see somebody,

00:44:09.340 something like this

00:44:09.980 happen to anybody,

00:44:10.940 Kamala Harris,

00:44:11.700 Joe Biden,

00:44:12.340 whoever it might be,

00:44:13.200 any former president,

00:44:14.520 this is unacceptable

00:44:15.420 in America

00:44:16.620 and yeah,

00:44:18.260 it's something that

00:44:19.300 we probably, Glenn,

00:44:20.280 will always carry

00:44:21.120 in the back of our minds.

00:44:22.580 I believe,

00:44:23.060 like I said,

00:44:23.480 he'll be back

00:44:23.980 in that White House

00:44:24.640 and I'll worry

00:44:25.100 about him

00:44:25.580 every single day

00:44:26.840 that he's there,

00:44:27.840 that somebody's going

00:44:28.380 to try and do

00:44:28.820 something else like this.

00:44:29.960 I would love to,

00:44:31.580 when the time is right

00:44:32.620 for the family,

00:44:33.300 if it ever is,

00:44:34.580 I know that my family

00:44:36.040 and I have had

00:44:36.740 conversations,

00:44:37.540 serious conversations,

00:44:38.300 but not like the ones

00:44:39.320 you guys have had

00:44:40.920 to have had

00:44:41.620 and I know my family

00:44:44.280 would be mixed.

00:44:45.640 My kids would say,

00:44:47.640 Dad,

00:44:48.420 you have to do

00:44:49.360 what you believe

00:44:50.420 is right,

00:44:51.060 but they would also say,

00:44:52.620 Dad,

00:44:55.280 you don't have

00:44:56.980 to do this.

00:44:57.940 They would be

00:44:58.520 really conflicted,

00:44:59.500 I think,

00:45:00.480 and I can't imagine

00:45:02.520 what those,

00:45:02.980 you've had those

00:45:03.600 conversations,

00:45:04.360 I'm sure,

00:45:04.920 and I can't imagine

00:45:05.700 what they were like.

00:45:07.840 Yeah,

00:45:08.240 well,

00:45:08.460 and here's what I'll say

00:45:09.940 is that I have

00:45:11.660 my respect

00:45:12.860 and admiration

00:45:13.540 for my father-in-law

00:45:14.620 has only grown

00:45:15.500 to handle things

00:45:17.240 in the face of this

00:45:18.140 because honestly,

00:45:19.800 pretty much any other

00:45:21.020 human being

00:45:21.620 would say,

00:45:22.160 I'm not going to

00:45:23.140 continue to risk my life

00:45:24.280 because he honestly

00:45:24.940 really is for this.

00:45:26.700 I'm not going to go

00:45:27.240 through all of this.

00:45:28.560 He is so determined

00:45:29.800 and honestly,

00:45:31.000 I believe he thinks

00:45:31.900 and especially

00:45:32.420 after July 13th

00:45:33.700 that this is really,

00:45:34.960 this is so much

00:45:35.860 bigger than him

00:45:36.540 and I think he knows

00:45:37.860 he's got God

00:45:39.360 behind him

00:45:39.980 in this fight

00:45:40.960 and I think he believes

00:45:42.620 that he is the right person

00:45:43.700 for this job

00:45:44.220 and the only person

00:45:44.960 for the job

00:45:45.980 to save this country

00:45:46.880 and by all accounts

00:45:47.760 save the world

00:45:48.360 at this point

00:45:49.480 and so he's undeterred

00:45:50.880 and I just,

00:45:52.460 again,

00:45:52.780 my respect for him

00:45:54.340 is,

00:45:54.940 it's incredible.

00:45:56.400 I am so impressed

00:45:57.700 with this man

00:45:58.180 every single day.

00:45:59.440 Yeah,

00:45:59.860 you don't,

00:46:00.460 you don't do this lightly.

00:46:03.460 You don't get up

00:46:04.200 and a measure of a man

00:46:05.500 is how they respond

00:46:06.900 when they're

00:46:07.580 under the most

00:46:08.820 amount of pressure

00:46:09.540 and I hope America

00:46:12.220 sees that.
