Hello America and welcome to the Glenn Beck Program. It's our podcast. Got a great one for
00:00:03.820
you today. All the coverage that you need on what happened in New Hampshire yesterday. Also,
00:00:11.160
there's a new name for the coronavirus because we found out now that WHO is very concerned
00:00:16.900
that coronavirus just sounds too scary and people are going to start demonizing the Chinese. So
00:00:24.820
we're going to give, we're not working on a cure yet, but they do have a new name for us. And
00:00:30.040
we're going to give that to you today on the podcast. Also, I realized that, you know, that
00:00:34.000
grumpy old man that used to live and used to yell at you all the time, you know, as a kid that never
00:00:38.960
seemed to ever die or get older. He was just always old. It's Bernie Sanders. And I'll explain my theory
00:00:47.460
on today's podcast. And don't forget to sign up and subscribe to Stew Does America. It's available

00:01:06.120
Hour Long. Hour Long, and it is a deep dive on the issues of the day. Today, we look in China
00:01:12.480
and the too close for comfort relationship between China and the Bidens.
00:01:23.960
It came out very much like Iowa did. Bernie Sanders and Pete Buttigieg slugging it out for number
00:01:46.300
one and number two. I thought these numbers spoke volumes. America, the Democrats don't want a
00:01:56.840
socialist. You'll notice that Elizabeth Warren, her numbers went down. Bernie Sanders didn't pick any
00:02:05.540
of those numbers up. Amy Klobuchar clobbered Joe Biden. And Pete Buttigieg is being viewed as a moderate,
00:02:15.520
even though he's not. You start to get rid of Joe Biden and Michael Bloomberg or, you know,
00:02:26.260
Amy Klobuchar. You get rid of the so-called moderates. And Pete Buttigieg would have clubbed Bernie.
00:02:34.920
Just clubbed him to death. And to me, that's something that we need to talk about. Also,
00:02:42.420
there's something else the media is missing. Donald Trump more than doubled Obama's 2012 New
00:02:48.700
Hampshire vote total. There was not a lot of passion for Barack Obama in 2012.
00:02:55.760
He still won, but there wasn't a lot of passion. Donald Trump has doubled those numbers in New
00:03:07.040
Hampshire. That says the people who are for Donald Trump are on fire for Donald Trump. The turnout for
00:03:16.160
the youth, what was it, 18 to 30-year-olds, was actually down by two or three points from the 2016
00:03:28.320
election. They expected it to be 20 points higher. There is no revolution going on here.
00:03:36.940
This is not a big socialist revolution. It's happening in the Twittersphere. It's happening
00:03:45.980
online. It's happening on MSNBC. But it is not happening in our communities when New Hampshire
00:03:53.320
isn't even putting 10 or 15 points in front of Pete Buttigieg. We go to Steve Dace from the Steve
00:04:03.280
Dace program here on Blaze. He follows this program live every day. Wanted to see and get his feel on
00:04:11.160
what happened in New Hampshire last night. Hi, Steve. Morning, Glenn. And, you know, the big takeaway
00:04:17.340
I see is the winning vote total Bernie Sanders had compared to what we've seen in recent cycles when
00:04:25.400
there's been multi-candidate fields. Like what Sanders did four years ago is irrelevant because it
00:04:30.320
was just him and Hillary head to head. Correct. But if you if you go back to 1996, you'll see a
00:04:35.520
pattern. And that is whenever the winning vote total is depressed in its overall amount, that party
00:04:42.900
loses. Buchanan in 96 won New Hampshire with less than 57,000 votes, for example. And then if you go
00:04:50.360
back and it doesn't really matter who wins, like McCain won New Hampshire in 2000, but his vote total was
00:04:55.480
over 115,000. And then you saw George W. Bush ultimately win that election. So whichever party
00:05:02.000
has a surge in the vote total of its winner, Donald Trump was well over 100,000 back in 2016, for
00:05:08.820
example, whichever party sees a surge in the vote total of its winner in New Hampshire tends to go on
00:05:14.940
and win in November. And what you're looking at with with Bernie Sanders is what I was telling you back
00:05:20.560
in Iowa. This is 2012, but there's no Mitt Romney. They thought that was going to be Joe Biden and
00:05:27.020
they don't have that candidate right now. And so Bernie Sanders is winning, pardon the Soviet pun,
00:05:33.180
a bunch of Stalin grads here. He's winning wars of attrition because his base shows up no matter what
00:05:38.980
while everybody else is sort of figuring out, hey, who else are we going to go with? Is it Rick
00:05:43.080
Santorum? Is it Michelle Bachman? Is it Rick Perry? Well, now the names are Pete Buttigieg and
00:05:48.020
Elizabeth Warren and Amy Klobuchar, who nobody knew what a Klobuchar was a month ago.
00:05:54.220
So big picture takeaway for your audience. They've got the left media and the Democratic Party
00:05:59.740
has between now and Super Tuesday on March 3rd to take him out. If you go to the calendar on Super
00:06:05.280
Tuesday, there's a lot of Southern states there that Pete Buttigieg has no chance to win. All right.
00:06:10.040
And so if Bernie Sanders wins just as New England states and California, he's going to be the nominee
00:06:15.760
and you're going to see them begin to start making peace with it and retconning him
00:06:20.140
from March 4th thereafter. But between him now and March 3rd, it is open season on Bernie Sanders
00:06:26.920
and they've got to come up with a candidate that they can rally behind. That's not him.
00:06:32.920
No. I think Pete Buttigieg is largely a fascinate, the same people that voted, the same white suburbanites
00:06:41.000
and exurbanites who voted for Barack Obama without knowing what a Jeremiah Wright was or vetting his
00:06:45.840
record because they wanted to break the racial barrier is who's voting for him now because they
00:06:50.760
want to, he's the virtue signaling candidate of this cycle. They just want to say, hey, I'm not homophobic.
00:06:56.340
But if you look at the college campus communities in those places, the urban areas, he doesn't have a lot
00:07:02.020
of support there. And now we're going to go to South Carolina. He has no chance to win there.
00:07:06.800
And then from there, we go, other than the Nevada caucuses, there's going to be a lot of
00:07:10.880
southern states here, a lot of black voters who are socially conservative. He's a no-go,
00:07:16.740
no-fly zone right away. And I think you're going to see him remain relevant because of what he's
00:07:22.140
already done. But there's not too many states between now and Super Tuesday that when you look
00:07:27.960
at the calendar, you think, yeah, I think Pete Buttigieg could win there.
00:07:32.580
So who is there? Because I just, I'm watching Amy Klobuchar. She is just not somebody who's going
00:07:41.960
to win. I mean, I watched her last night give her speech and it's just that I just don't see a
00:07:53.580
I think that's the problem. I don't think there is a logical one. I think Michael Bloomberg,
00:07:58.300
you know, I mentioned to you this a few weeks ago. I think his play was for Super Tuesday to
00:08:03.180
see if I can buy primary wins in places like Oklahoma, et cetera, with huge, massive television
00:08:09.920
buys. But the problem is he was a terrible Republican. He's an even worse Democrat. He's not
00:08:17.800
an inspirational figure at all. He's even more socially awkward than Elizabeth Warren.
00:08:23.560
This is why I think he is. This is why I've been I've been tweeting out for the last couple of
00:08:29.080
weeks, Glenn. This this is Thanos. I am inevitable. I believe Bernie Sanders is inevitable
00:08:36.380
because everything you just said about the Democratic Party is true. But that's why he's
00:08:40.560
inevitable. Glenn, they have played footsie with the likes of Bernie Sanders and these folks to club
00:08:46.180
people like you and me for 30 damn years. And now and now the camel's nose is not under the tent,
00:08:51.780
the whole torso, the tail, the backside. But it's all in the tent now. And they have and they can't
00:08:58.000
figure out how to consolidate a true ideological moderate would crush him. But they're not capable
00:09:04.680
as a party of permitting one. I mean, Andrew Yang put out one moderate position on abortion 24 hours
00:09:11.340
ago and was excommunicated by the by the white woke brigade. And so everybody we call a moderate. I mean,
00:09:17.760
Pete Buttigieg wrote in college, his political idol was Bernie Sanders. All right. So everybody we call
00:09:23.160
a moderate is actually a leftist, too. They just don't Nikita Khrushchev shake their fist at you
00:09:28.340
like Bernie Sanders does. So but isn't that why isn't that a reason why Pete Buttigieg could do well,
00:09:35.920
because he is that he is that leftist and but he just is in much softer, nicer, younger packaging?
00:09:46.920
Yes, if he were if he were Governor Buttigieg or Senator Buttigieg. But the problem we have right
00:09:52.520
now is if we're going to be blunt, the only reason the mayor of the town is big as Cedar Rapids, Iowa
00:09:58.020
is in this race is because he's gay. And that right now is the number one intersectionality victim group
00:10:03.560
in the Democratic Party. And so that's gotten him where he's at now. But now we reach where we go
00:10:09.520
where the map pivots south and we go to that's the biggest argument against him. And so what got him
00:10:15.240
in the door in Iowa and New Hampshire, it made a whole bunch of people say, yes, I finally get to
00:10:19.960
convince MSNBC I'm not a homophobe is now what is too expensive of a cover charge for him to pay to go
00:10:27.760
into the bar from South Carolina, Alabama, and all those states down south between now and Super
00:10:33.560
Tuesday, his biggest strength becomes his biggest impediment. So I have a different view on Pete
00:10:38.720
Buttigieg and people and you know, hey, I'm not a homophobe. I think that's already been decided.
00:10:44.100
I think that's over, you know, for the most part, except with the real diehard extremists.
00:10:48.880
Um, and, and it's kind of like had its day and we, you know, we've all accepted everybody
00:10:56.780
and yada, yada, yada. It's not, that's that, that is not the noose it used to be. Um, you say
00:11:04.940
one thing wrong and it used to be an absolute noose. Now it's kind of divided, I think on the left
00:11:11.700
to where, uh, there are others that are saying, you know, why are you getting all the special
00:11:17.220
details and the special laws and the special everything. So I think there's, I think there's
00:11:22.240
the, um, there's the, it's a double aired store sword inside of his own quiver of yes, he's gay,
00:11:31.240
but yes, is he, is he an extremist? Uh, like, you know, like we have seen in the past. Um, and so I
00:11:39.160
think there's, it works both ways on that. I really think Pete Buttigieg is, uh, the,
00:11:47.220
the Jimmy Carter of this generation. He is, he could go a long way just being the anti-Trump.
00:11:58.080
Look, can't we all get along? Can't we? Nobody cared about Jimmy Carter except he's just a simple
00:12:04.360
peanut farmer. And he, you know, he was a preacher and he just loves the Lord and he'll carry his own
00:12:10.900
luggage. He's not like that evil Nixon and Ford. I think there's a swing and the swing that I think
00:12:19.440
people are, uh, hungry for is a don't be Donald Trump and they've beaten people and beaten people
00:12:28.720
and beaten people. And I think there's a chance that even they are seeing, I don't want that
00:12:33.940
divisiveness. I don't want the Nancy Pelosi and the, and the just beating people over the head.
00:12:40.280
I want to win, but I would like a uniter, not a divider. And I think that if Pete plays it right,
00:12:47.800
and I think he did last night in many ways, if he plays it right on, Hey, I'm just, I'm just,
00:12:54.360
I just want us all to come together. I think that could be effective for him. Disagree?
00:12:59.560
Uh, somewhat, I think you're correct about the rivalry within the democratic party. Uh, and you
00:13:06.840
know, the same week that we had the first gay marriage really from the Supreme court, they struck
00:13:10.320
down the voting rights act of 1964. And what a lot of people on the right don't know is the
00:13:16.200
intra party dynamic on the left. There's a massive problem between, uh, between, uh, the, the homosexual
00:13:23.120
activists and, and the black community, because it is seen as if this group has put them, pardon the
00:13:29.080
pun again, to the back of the bus here on the intersectionality chart. If Pete Buttigieg is
00:13:33.740
the democratic nominee, mark my words, Donald Trump is going to get the best voting total
00:13:38.480
of blacks by a Republican presidential nominee since before the civil rights act of 1964.
00:13:45.720
All right. So hang on just a second. I want to come back in, in one minute, because I want
00:13:49.960
to ask you the road to not having Bernie Sanders, uh, is a dicey one, especially if the democratic
00:14:00.680
party doesn't, it knows what you just said, which I believe, uh, then what, then how do
00:14:07.560
they manage this? And what is the, what's the aftermath? We'll go to, uh, so Steve, let me start
00:14:13.220
with the question, uh, of how does the democratic party, which I completely agree with you. I found
00:14:21.760
some old audio. We should play that today. Uh, found some old audio of me in 2004, warning
00:14:27.540
the democratic party. Once they put Michael Moore in the presidential box with, uh, Jimmy Carter
00:14:34.500
in 2004, I said, you people are out of your mind. He's a socialist. You think you're using
00:14:41.260
him, he's using you, he's going to come back and the socialist will eat you for breakfast
00:14:47.960
and you watch. And here we are. How do they untangle themselves from these very dedicated
00:14:57.240
radicals, revolutionaries, uh, and hold things together? I don't think that they can. I think,
00:15:05.740
I think, you know, to, to quote, uh, the former president's, uh, uh, leftist, uh, pastor, their
00:15:12.360
chickens are coming home. Yeah. I think eventually, you know, do not be deceived. God will not be
00:15:20.260
mocked. You will always reap what you sow. Right. And I think that you're watching this now and I
00:15:25.300
don't think there's a way out of this because they're only real inspiring alternative is a guy
00:15:31.400
that actually exposes the wedges of their constituencies all the more. If you look at all
00:15:37.120
of the black and brown polling in this race, even down to the college age kids where they've been
00:15:41.880
totally worked over by the sexual revolution, the lowest polling candidate of all black and brown
00:15:48.040
peoples of any age group is Pete Buttigieg. And so when you put him as the alternative, you're
00:15:55.060
actually exposing this schism and fracture all the more. That's why I don't think they have a way out
00:16:00.860
of this. So you think they're going to run Bernie Sanders? I think they're going to run. I think
00:16:09.580
either, I think they're either going to run Bernie Sanders. And if we look at the primary calendar
00:16:13.640
between now and March and the end of super Tuesday, tell me what States, maybe Colorado,
00:16:19.600
maybe Virginia. And that's about it of those 14 States that are going to be going between now and
00:16:25.220
March 3rd, that Pete Buttigieg can win. If Bernie wins new England, those, the rest of those new
00:16:30.100
England states, California, you know, I, if he wins California and they don't give him the
00:16:35.020
nomination, that's their headquarters. So I think, I think they've got a couple of weeks to try to
00:16:41.440
figure out some kind of Harry, Hail Mary pass. And then I think you're going to see them just begin
00:16:46.360
to make peace with it because they recognize that go back to the first interview you and I did on this
00:16:51.820
cycle back in January of a year ago. And I said, the biggest challenge Democrats have
00:16:55.740
is they want to run the election of 2028 and 2032, but we're not there yet demographically.
00:17:01.400
And so they may just decide, you know what, we'll eat it like we did with McGovern. We'll eat it,
00:17:05.540
you know, like we have in other cycles, because ultimately we know that we're controlling the arc
00:17:10.520
and trajectory of the Overton window in history here. And once Donald Trump is gone, there is not
00:17:15.660
another Republican who dares to stand against us on this cultural level because they're all afraid of
00:17:21.300
our media. My guess is that's the play they make beginning on March 4th if they can't take Bernie
00:17:25.840
out. So you think they're still confident in the long run? Because I, I will tell you it with
00:17:30.540
exception of the demographic, the demographic shift here. And that also will play against them soon
00:17:37.080
because you see the, the ones coming behind the millennials are very conservative, very active,
00:17:44.560
conservative, uh, and are, are learning what they should be learning. I think we have a new generation
00:17:50.520
of conservatives coming up, um, that are unlike anything else. You think that the Democrats are
00:17:56.840
still, uh, confident in this, in this socialist future? I think the ones that are coming in the next
00:18:05.540
generation are, and it's their religion and they're going to play out, um, this self-actualization
00:18:10.720
into its ultimate outcome. That's what I think. Thank you so much, Steve Dace. You can, uh, get all
00:18:15.560
of his analysis, uh, following this program every day on blaze TV and blaze radio. And don't forget
00:18:22.580
tonight, 9 PM, a brand new series starring yes, little old me tonight, China and Joe Biden.
00:18:40.720
Hey, it's Glenn. And you're listening to the Glenn Beck program. If you like what you're hearing on
00:18:47.060
this show, make sure you check out Pat Gray unleashed. It's available wherever you download
00:18:52.400
your favorite podcasts. All right, let me give you some, um, let me give you some good news. First
00:18:57.900
of all, in the coronavirus, I'm gonna, I'm going to give you all of the details on the coronavirus,
00:19:01.880
uh, here in just a second, uh, at the bottom of the hour. But I want to start with this because
00:19:07.880
this is, I mean, when you think of coronavirus, what is it that you have been most concerned
00:19:12.340
about on the coronavirus? I mean, just the massive spread and dying. I would say that'd be number
00:19:19.240
one on the list. What was number two? I, uh, I, it was pretty much just the one.
00:19:28.000
Now this shows how out of steps do is the number one concern on the coronavirus is that it is
00:19:34.960
something that is targeting the Asian community. It's name apparently, according to the WHO is
00:19:44.480
making people look at that and saying, Oh, this is an Asian problem. And they're afraid that racism
00:19:50.060
will, uh, uh, pop up and there'll be all kinds of problems because of how Asian it sounds to me.
00:19:57.300
I think anybody who's not paying attention to it would think that it's a Mexican beer virus. Yeah.
00:20:02.940
Uh, and that's been shown in search results. Well, well, uh, overshadowing the human toll,
00:20:11.220
you know, an actual death is the human toll of racism. So yesterday the, uh, the, uh, coronavirus
00:20:18.700
has officially had its name changed to a now politically correct name that has taken the word
00:20:28.320
Corona and disease and put them together. So it's now COVID-19. You will not be hearing on this
00:20:40.900
program. We are not haters. You will not be hearing about the coronavirus. You will be now hearing about
00:20:46.540
COVID-19. That is the official name. And it has nothing to do with China. Pay no attention to
00:20:54.240
China. You haters. That's a serious story. Serious story. I mean, how, how on earth did we get
00:21:06.200
through these things? We don't, we don't, we deserve to die of little Chinaman disease.
00:21:13.440
You can call it whatever you want. COVID-19 coronavirus, bat soup is bad for you disease,
00:21:24.140
whatever we deserve it. If we are more concerned about what we're naming it. That's, I mean,
00:21:30.420
that's real political correctness, right? That's, that's, that's, you know, that's our special next,
00:21:35.200
next Wednesday. Next Wednesday, we're doing COVID-19. And the, the real theme of the show is
00:21:43.260
big governments kill. That's what they do. And sometimes they do it with compassion, but they kill
00:21:48.160
because big governments only care about the mass and look at what's happening in China. And this is
00:21:53.300
an example of it. COVID-19, you are spending, can you work on a cure? Who is like, you know what?
00:22:00.080
Put the scalpel down, put the test tubes down for a minute. Can we talk about the name? The name is
00:22:05.960
scaring me. Who is saying that? Okay. Let me give you some good news.
00:22:13.100
How does it feel to you, this fight against socialism in America, this fight against racism
00:22:24.040
in America? Does it feel like we're winning? We're making progress? It seems like the party's going
00:22:33.100
further and further left to a degree that almost unthinkable. I mean, we've used this example before,
00:22:40.000
but Bernie Sanders in 2013 proposed Medicare for all and could not get a single co-sponsor on the
00:22:46.640
bill. Now, everyone in the race, the 50,000 people who ran are pretty much on, on, on board.
00:22:53.940
All right. And it seems like Bernie Sanders and all of the Democrats, they're all socialists. All of
00:23:00.060
them are socialists, right? Socialists. Seems like it. Seems like it. They're, they're at least,
00:23:05.400
they're at least holding onto the socialist truck on a skateboard. They're, they're just,
00:23:10.460
you know, they're skating behind that truck, right? Uh, let me give you from 1958, and these numbers
00:23:18.720
are 1958, 1983, 2007, 2015, 2020. Gallup poll. The percentage that would vote for a person who is
00:23:31.360
black. I'm going to give you this, the, the raw American numbers. In 1958, it was 38%. That's
00:23:40.320
remarkable. In 1983, it was 77%. Today it's, uh, then I'm sorry, 2007, 94. Then in 2015, 92. Then in 2020,
00:23:52.680
96. And to be clear, the 92 is just because there was a black president that half the country didn't
00:23:58.400
like. Yes. Right. So it degrades a little bit just on, on that. Catholic. I'm just going
00:24:03.980
to give you the, the 1958 number to the 2020 number. Catholic, 67% would vote for a Catholic
00:24:10.520
in 1958. Uh, 95% would vote for a Catholic now. That's crazy. Hispanic. We didn't even pull it in
00:24:18.560
1968. Uh, but it is now 94%. Mm-hmm. Jewish, 63% to 93. Women, uh, 54% to 93. Evangelical Christian,
00:24:32.400
they didn't pull it until 2015, 73 to now 80. So now, let me, let me help you out here. Black, Catholic,
00:24:40.740
Hispanic, Hispanic, Jewish, women, all in the nineties. Evangelical Christian is 13 points behind
00:24:48.120
any of those others. That's fascinating. That's not the right doing that. No, no. Uh, gay and
00:24:55.320
tolerance though, Glenn, gay and lesbian started taking that in 1983, 29%. Then in 2007, 55, then 2015,
00:25:05.080
74. Now 78. Under 40. We've never pulled it until now. Under 40 is 70. Over 70. It's a short,
00:25:16.200
I mean, cause it's got, you gotta be 35 in the constitution. So that's a short little window
00:25:20.800
there. It's right in the middle of it. Over 70, only 69% of Americans want to vote for somebody
00:25:27.400
over 70. Muslim, 66. Atheist, 60. The last one is socialist, 45. Now, let me get still really
00:25:42.960
high, but I think you're giving me that as good news, right? Yeah. I'm giving this to you as good
00:25:47.260
news. Okay. Still really high, but willingness to vote for candidates with diverse characteristics
00:25:53.400
by party ID. Okay. The views of political independence, I'm reading directly from the
00:26:00.800
research. Now, wait until you hear this. The views of political independence fall midway
00:26:05.680
between those Republicans and Democrats for several candidate types, including socialist with
00:26:10.700
less than half of independent saying that they would vote for such a person. Independents are closer
00:26:15.560
to Democrats than Republicans and their greater reluctance to support an evangelical Christian
00:26:21.080
candidate in the greater willingness to support a candidate who is a woman, gay, lesbian, somebody
00:26:26.400
under 40, a Muslim, or an atheist. As the 2020 Democratic presidential primaries get underway,
00:26:34.100
listen to this, it may be instructive to know that little prejudice stands in the way of Democrats,
00:26:40.540
as well as national support for candidates who happen to be Catholic, Hispanic, Jewish, or female,
00:26:46.780
especially young or advanced in age could pose minor appeal problems. Being gay or lesbian, Muslim,
00:26:54.980
atheist, or a socialist wouldn't cause much stir among Democrats, but these candidates could have
00:27:02.720
difficulty attracting support from Republicans and to a lesser extent from political independence.
00:27:08.440
Republicans. So who has the problem here? Republicans, clearly. Republicans, Republicans. Let me give
00:27:15.660
this to you. You're going to have little prejudice. You're going to be facing little prejudice if you
00:27:22.600
are running for the Democrats. Republicans aren't going to stand in your way, but there is some prejudice
00:27:28.320
there. If you happen to be Catholic, 95 is the number for Republicans saying that they would vote for
00:27:34.620
a Catholic out of 100, 95. Hispanic, 90. Jewish, 92. Or female, 86. Especially if you're young or advanced
00:27:45.920
in age. 73 is for advanced age. Okay? Republicans, 73. That number for Democrats is 66.
00:27:58.080
76. So you're going to pose some opposition from attracting a Republican. Uh, they're at 73% acceptance.
00:28:09.640
You're at 66. Then you're going to have real problems if you're gay or lesbian, because this is
00:28:16.560
real. It won't cause a stir among the Democrats, but, uh, these candidates are going to have a really
00:28:22.360
hard time attracting anybody because they're so diverse. Uh, but anybody else, you're a Republican,
00:28:30.200
you're a bigot. Being gay or lesbian, that's at 89%. Let's see. Uh, if you were Catholic, it was 95
00:28:39.620
for the Republicans, Hispanic, 90, Jewish, 92, female, 86. Being gay or lesbian, uh, is, uh, 89. Muslim, 88.
00:28:52.360
Atheist, 69. Socialist, 76. All of their numbers are lower than the ones that they were saying
00:29:00.660
earlier are going to really cause a problem. It's very divisive, and these people won't do it.
00:29:04.680
Their number, they're more bigoted than, than the Republicans are on the things that they say
00:29:12.900
they're all for. Gay, lesbian, Muslim, atheist, socialist, 76%. The, the point that I get out of this
00:29:23.500
is there is not a big movement for socialism. There is not a, there is not this grand divide,
00:29:33.620
except beginning with evangelical Christians, both sides with gay and lesbian, both sides under the age
00:29:44.300
of 40, both sides over 70. Uh, one side really, I mean, it's 42 to 88 for Muslim, atheist 41 to 69,
00:29:54.820
and socialist 17 for the Republicans and 76, uh, for the Democrats, but only 45 for independents.
00:30:03.460
Even that though is remarkable. Almost a one out of every five Republicans is fine with a socialist
00:30:08.740
president. I know that's crazy. That's an incredible number. It really is. It's interesting to that divide
00:30:14.500
where you have characteristics, religion, or lack thereof, sort of grouped together because there
00:30:21.160
is a difference there, right? Like saying you won't vote for someone because of black skin
00:30:25.820
is a really, I mean, psychotic old timey view. Uh, the idea that you wouldn't vote for someone
00:30:34.720
because of their religion. Well, religion is, is largely a collection of beliefs that informs the
00:30:39.300
way you act, right? That's a much more, now I don't, I don't, you know, there's always someone,
00:30:44.900
right? Like, but if you, if you were to say like atheist, a lot of people would not, that was one of the
00:30:48.300
least popular ones on there to take that as an example. And you might say to yourself, well, atheism
00:30:52.560
is, is a system of beliefs, uh, that might not lend itself to, uh, support my view of religious
00:31:01.480
liberty, right? Now we all know we met, I mean, Penn Jillette is a, would be a big defender of
00:31:06.640
religious liberty and he's an atheist, but we've all met atheists that would do that, but that's not
00:31:10.960
necessarily inherent in the ideology. In a way, what is a religion, but an ideology, right? Right. So, uh,
00:31:17.560
when it, at least as it applies to public policy. So it's, it's a big difference there and they lump
00:31:23.240
all that stuff together. And it's, it's an interesting thing that is always included in
00:31:27.820
these polls because it really does. I think for a lot of people, it's going to indicate
00:31:32.260
how someone would act because you know, that's how you would act, right? Like if you have a religious
00:31:37.900
foundation, it sets the foundation for the way that you deal with whatever issue you're talking
00:31:42.640
about, um, where skin color should not be that way. And yet the left treats skin color
00:31:48.740
that way. You know, they talk about how important, uh, every cultural differences and how that
00:31:54.340
is inherent, like skin color. It's not inherent in that at all. No, that's not the way that's
00:31:59.160
supposed to be. No, no. But the good news is, I think if you saw last night, Bernie's numbers
00:32:06.620
are not turning out. No, they're not turning out. There is a revolution going on, but it is a very
00:32:14.420
small group of people. It's not what you are led to believe by the press. It is still small,
00:32:21.380
uh, but it is, it's uncommonly large for America to be seeing this, but it's still a small number.
00:32:29.880
And it's being foisted upon us by a very small group of quite honestly, very powerful because
00:32:39.280
they are connected, uh, very powerful forces in our universities and in, uh, television and broadcast.
00:32:47.040
But it's only feeling like we're overwhelmed by socialists because the Democrats are being
00:32:52.320
overwhelmed by socialists. They have let this small group of, of rebels, uh, uh, Americans,
00:32:59.880
haters, constitutional, um, imbeciles take over. And that's why you feel it's choking because it's
00:33:08.480
choking them to death. If you're a Democrat, you really need to wake up, uh, because it's choking
00:33:15.820
your party to death and it's a small number of people doing it. This is the best of the Glenn Beck

00:34:00.500
were afraid of? And you would, sometimes you would add maybe five or six minutes to your walk home just
00:34:06.420
to take, just to take the route that didn't pass his house. You know, you would opt for the house
00:34:12.900
with a Rottweiler that was on a chain and the chain looked a little rickety and there was a big hole in
00:34:19.300
the fence and the shape of a former classmate. You remember that house? You'd walk by that house
00:34:24.360
because that old man was sitting in that house and it was like he was waiting for you. He was just
00:34:31.060
waiting. His door seemed to always be just a little open, just a little bit of a crack. He was like ready
00:34:37.820
to pounce when you walked by. And he was, he was old when our parents were our age. He was the guy
00:34:45.460
that our parents were like, Oh, I remember, I remember cranky old Mr. Wilson. You'd be like,
00:34:51.100
he was old then. Yo, yeah. He'd come out and yell at you and he's still doing it. I don't know. Maybe,
00:34:59.480
maybe there's another guy that's a vampire or a Highlander or I don't know what it is, but
00:35:08.200
that guy won in New Hampshire last night, New Hampshire.
00:35:15.580
Cause you know, Bernie Sanders, after he gave his speech, he wanted to get into the car and he was,
00:35:19.740
you know, firing up the old Buick. And he was like, Oh, why aren't there any dials on the,
00:35:28.960
on the radio anymore? Why are there dials? And he couldn't hear, he couldn't figure out how to get
00:35:35.220
the radio reports on how he won. And everybody in the car was like radio. What is that?
00:35:41.120
It's the same guy, that same guy that would yell at you all the time. And you would see him and he
00:35:49.100
would be in shorts and black socks and he'd have black shoes on, but they were like the really high
00:35:54.600
knee socks that, you know, only old guys in suits would wear. And you can't imagine him in a suit
00:36:02.180
because I mean, did they have suits back when he was a kid? When he was working, that had to be
00:36:09.840
what a hundred years ago. And now he's like, these shoes are comfortable. These are the shoes
00:36:17.040
everybody should have. It's Bernie. He was trying to get everybody to wear those comfortable shoes
00:36:22.520
because they never wear out. I bought these shoes back in 1954. They never have worn out. Everybody
00:36:30.460
should only wear these shoes and you can borrow my socks. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. You ruffians,
00:36:39.840
in your tennis sneakers. You'd come to his house if you were brave or if you were the new kid that
00:36:51.040
moved into the block or you were just stupid. You would go to his house on Halloween and he'd open
00:36:58.360
the door. What do you want? It's Halloween. We're all dressed as... And then you'd see him in the happy
00:37:04.460
mode. He'd look at the kids and he'd be like happy. I mean, you wouldn't know it because his face didn't
00:37:10.060
change and he would still say, I got nothing and slam the door. And you know, you know that that guy
00:37:18.220
is the guy who wants the big government because if you were ever playing baseball, if you were playing
00:37:23.280
kickball, any of that stuff, that was the guy who was like, you kids, I'm calling your parents.
00:37:30.980
I know your parents and they're not going to like it. Yeah. Cause they're scared of you too.
00:37:38.540
So, you know, he was the guy that wanted rules on everything. He is the guy. He was a progressive.
00:37:44.880
He had to be. He wanted everything. I'm calling the cops on you. I'm walking down the street.
00:37:51.220
I'm whistling, no whistling around my house. And when you were there on Halloween and he closed it,
00:37:57.800
I got nothing. Door closed. You know, he was walking back to his one chair with a lone TV in
00:38:04.880
the room and he's eating a TV dinner and he's like, everybody, these kids, they all want free stuff.
00:38:11.700
That's Bernie Sanders, man. That is who won last night in New Hampshire. The guy who's going back to
00:38:20.160
his TV dinner alone, watching that TV and that old ratty chair that is comfortable in my comfortable
00:38:27.000
shoes and everybody should wear these black comfortable shoes and stop knocking at my door
00:38:32.120
for free stuff. And yet he's promising everyone, somebody else's stuff for free.
00:38:40.340
Thus ended the lesson. I thought I would just pop that in today because I realized it last night
00:38:48.580
when he was happy and yet he looked angry and I thought I've seen him before. That's Mr. Wilson.
00:38:58.960
Yeah, there's only one guy. He was in your childhood, our parents' childhood, and now he wants to be
00:39:06.140
president of the United States. That's all there is to it. Uh, by the way, uh, Klobuchar, uh, is now
00:39:14.140
going to expand her campaign after a strong New Hampshire primary. Uh, she sucked. Uh, no, did you
00:39:22.880
see her, her speech? I think she's really bad. Yeah. You know, she has a great resume. She has a
00:39:31.280
great electoral history. She pretty much blows everybody out everywhere she's ever been. Okay.
00:39:36.120
Well, but she also says, I mean, if I have to hear one more time that she announced her campaign
00:39:42.460
in a snowstorm, I'm going to jump off of a building. I thought it was just me. She says it every time.
00:39:49.600
Why do we care what the weather was when you started talking about your campaign? Why would it,
00:39:55.060
why on earth would we care about that? You live in Minnesota. Of course it was snowing. There's no
00:39:59.420
other options. Get off my lawn in the snow. Get off my lawn. It's really annoying. And she has,
00:40:08.660
she's very bad at the, she does a Kamala Harris did this too, where they come up with these lines,
00:40:15.220
you know, on the bus or in their focus groups or whatever that they think are really,
00:40:19.500
really effective. And they continually repeat them over and over again in every media appearance.
00:40:24.840
Every time you see them, every time she walks out, she says something like, I may be Klobuchar
00:40:29.320
and I'm going to be Donald Trump. Right? Just like, oh, you're like, oh, can she, I mean,
00:40:36.300
can you even attempt to say it like a human being would say it? Can you even try? Or, you know,
00:40:41.880
I'm sorry. I, I have no problem. I have no problem voting for a woman. I would have voted for,
00:40:47.040
oh, what's her? Hillary Clinton. Heels and the. Oh, for you. Kamala Harris. I know you. No,
00:40:57.000
you know the woman. Imelda Marcos. No. Carly Fiorina. I would have voted for Carly Fiorina in a
00:41:03.280
heartbeat. Okay. I really liked Carly. Okay. I think she was a real constitutional conservative.
00:41:09.280
Didn't sound like it at the beginning, but I think she really was. And she had the guts to do it. I
00:41:14.100
loved her. I loved her. Um, but you know, there, there, there is, there is something about some
00:41:21.480
women, just like some guys, you know, you, you listen to some guys and you're like, their voice
00:41:26.320
just grates on me. You know, there's some people that have radio shows that didn't last long in
00:41:32.720
radio show because their voice just grates on you. Uh, Klobuchar is one of those people. Hillary
00:41:39.580
Clinton was one of those people where it's just like, I'm gonna tell you right now. That's all
00:41:45.240
you hear. That's all you hear. That's not necessarily the way they sound. What you hear is
00:41:50.000
I'm gonna tell you to pick up your socks. This is the sexism we've been talking about. Yes. No,
00:41:56.900
but I mean, Elizabeth Warren, I think, and again, we're naming every female candidate here. No,
00:42:01.000
Kamala Harris didn't have that. No. Kamala Harris doesn't have that. No. Uh, and I don't think,
00:42:06.620
I think Elizabeth Warren has something else different. I think she has, she has almost
00:42:10.640
like a, it's almost like a, uh, uh, a teenaged puberty male voice. It's always cracking. It's
00:42:16.560
got that. Hi, Elizabeth Warren. She almost has that thing going on, which is a very strange
00:42:21.500
character. So is it like a Catherine Hepburn thing? Is it like, is it kind of like that?
00:42:28.680
Possibly. That's what I would like Elizabeth Warren to say. If she got into a debate, she should
00:42:32.340
just use all the old Catherine Hepburn lines from like on golden pond where, Hey, you're
00:42:36.820
the old poop. Stop it now. It's working better than what she's doing now. Anything would, anything
00:42:43.380
would, anything would, but there is that. And look, this happens, uh, for a lot of people.
00:42:48.620
It's, it is, it's a, I mean, women will say that it's sexist, but I, you know, I, I, you look at it
00:42:56.260
and I bet no Barack Obama had the same kind of thing, except he had it with catchphrases that
00:43:02.100
would drive you out of your mind after a while. You can, he was better at least at pulling them
00:43:08.100
off. Every, every candidate says similar lines at different speeches and they, everybody has
00:43:14.320
their go-to phrasing. There's something about Klobuchar though. It's very stilted. She, she
00:43:19.480
knows like she's memorized the way she thinks it's supposed to sound, which is not the right
00:43:23.240
way. And she repeats it the same way every single time. And that is really irritating.
00:43:27.780
Stilted. How can you tell next to Elizabeth Warren?
00:43:31.060
And Warren is the same way. I mean, Warren is, she's bad. Like Warren is like a grandmother
00:43:35.860
that wants all of the teenagers to love her. And she's not like that cool grandma or that
00:43:43.800
cool grandpa that is just like, everybody does love you. You know, uh, she's really trying.
00:43:48.860
She's tries too hard. And so you're like, okay, okay. Creepy lady. Uh, that's enough.
00:43:52.920
You know, I'm just hip with you kids too. Hello, fellow kids. Yeah. I mean, wow. Those
00:43:59.880
are snazzy sneaks. Whoa. And she thinks she's being cool. That's the problem with Elizabeth
00:44:07.600
Warren for me is she's trying so hard, so hard, so hard. Uh, and I don't understand. I mean,
00:44:16.780
it does feel like the Klobuchar, the Clomentum that we're seeing now. The Clomentum. I like
00:44:23.200
that. Yeah. That is just. Because now we don't have Jomentum. No. Jomentum is, uh. Jomentum
00:44:28.420
is done. Crashed and burned. Yeah. The Jomentum ran out over the ocean, unfortunately. It crashed
00:44:33.600
into the sea. I have a feeling the Joe Biden, uh, and it's appropriate, uh, but the Joe Biden
00:44:40.560
career is going to be remembered a little like the Hindenburg in the end. Yeah. Sure. It might've
00:44:45.360
been great floating around for a while, but once it got over its target, it just burst
00:44:50.620
into flames. It's true though. And I think Klobuchar almost benefits from being so bad
00:44:58.080
for so long. Like Beto, for example, comes out and he has this big run and then falls
00:45:03.920
apart. Kamala Harris has a big run and then falls apart. Elizabeth Warren has a big run
00:45:07.720
and falls apart. All these people had these rises and then falls. Well, Klobuchar was smart.
00:45:13.160
She never had the rise. Yeah. She just didn't do anything. I'm just, I'm not better. I'm not
00:45:19.220
worse. I'm just exactly the way I was in the snowstorm. Everyone. I'm only looking good
00:45:25.060
because everyone else is burned to the ground. Yeah. I mean, that's the, that is the problem
00:45:30.580
because they're nobody's really taking it. Everybody's like, okay, well try her. Maybe
00:45:37.560
right. We're like, well, we got, we don't want to, he's got a socialist. You got Buttigieg
00:45:41.820
who's like 12 years old. I think he's rode his bike to the rally. Jing, jing. I got a new
00:45:46.860
bike bell boys. Who else are we going to have? Well, Klobuchar, we haven't heard anything bad
00:45:51.120
about her yet because we haven't heard anything about her yet. So let's try that one. I'm telling
00:45:55.440
you it is shoe shopping. They are like women shoe shopping. They're going to try them all
00:46:00.740
on. And in the end they're going to go, you know, I don't think I need new shoes. That sexism
00:46:06.120
is there again. Look at that. That's right. That's right. And I'm going to say it. Coronavirus.
00:46:11.620
I don't care. I don't care how anti-Asian that is. You're supposed to call it COVID-19 now.
