00:00:00.000 Behind our nation's defense is a powerful network of Canadian communities,
00:00:03.920 supported by Lockheed Martin Canada.
00:00:06.240 It's a network of over 1,300 employees and over 1,000 local suppliers,
00:00:10.880 from small family businesses to major tech firms.
00:00:14.160 Together, we've delivered a $3.6 billion boost to the Canadian economy over the past five years.
00:00:20.000 That's money that goes to securing our skies, our oceans, and the place we call home.
00:00:25.240 Learn more at LockheedMartin.com slash Canada.

00:01:33.920 post-election because it's something, if you're preparing, you need to know about, and Carol
00:01:38.020 Roth joins me on that as well to talk about what's coming, what you have to be aware of,
00:01:44.040 and Victor Davis Hanson is on talking to us a little bit about what does this mean,
00:01:49.620 what is happening and what's to come. All that and more on today's Best Of Podcast.
00:02:06.760 You're listening to the Best of the Glenn Beck Program.
00:02:14.880 All right, let me tell you some of the things that were happening yesterday.
00:02:18.280 Stocks took a nosedive yesterday.
00:02:22.860 It lost more than 1,800 points.
00:02:26.380 Why?
00:02:27.940 Why?
00:02:29.960 Because the Democrats came out and they said they were going after the AI companies.
00:02:37.040 They were talking about regulating all of the AI companies.
00:02:41.100 They talked about no more data centers around the country.
00:02:48.280 That was everything yesterday.
00:02:53.080 That's what that was really about.
00:02:55.300 Really, it was all about this.
00:03:00.400 Then more happened.
00:03:08.500 After that, Bernie Sanders comes out,
00:03:12.300 and he calls for a nationwide ban on all AI data centers.
00:03:18.280 then he talks about we need to have universal health care.
00:03:23.920 That is one-fifth of the economy being taken on by the government.
00:03:29.760 By the way, a government that cannot pay its own bills, let's have it take health care, universal health care.
00:03:36.760 I told you in 2008 and 2009 when they were trying to pass Obamacare, this was their real plan.
00:03:41.840 They denied it.
00:03:42.840 Then they came out right after it was passed, and one of their advisors said,
00:03:46.420 It's right there. It was a Trojan horse. Yes, of course, this will fail and it will roll into universal health care.
00:03:53.580 It's just a matter of time. Well, the time has passed and now we're going there.
00:03:57.600 If you want what Canada is going through, where they do have death panels, you'll go for the universal health care.
00:04:06.560 And a lot of people will go for it. We must not.
00:04:09.860 That's a fifth of our economy, and as an extra special benefit, it will decide who lives and dies, and you won't have any choice, and there will be no place to run, because Europe already has all of this.
00:04:26.160 What are you going to do?
00:04:27.300 Go to Europe? 0.99
00:04:28.360 You want to go to England, where they've been killing their old people for a while? 0.75
00:04:32.980 I don't know. 0.54
00:04:33.560 I don't think so.
00:04:34.780 Can't go to Canada.
00:04:37.420 So, ban AI data centers.
00:04:39.860 then take over one-fifth of the economy,
00:04:42.480 and then they add to it that they're going to go after all of Trump's energy deals.
00:04:53.820 They're going after our deal with Venezuela.
00:05:01.080 They want us to break the deal with Venezuela.
00:05:07.620 Why would you do that?
00:05:09.860 they're also looking at all of the other oil and gas deals that are on the...
00:05:15.620 You thought your gas price was bad now?
00:05:21.120 You wait.
00:05:24.260 Because these are the ones that do not believe in fossil fuels.
00:05:31.200 And so they're now, announced yesterday, going to go after all of those deals.
00:05:36.960 Then they came out and said, we're also going to investigate corporate America.
00:05:44.620 There is a 181-page dossier now that identifies hundreds of executives and companies for them to investigate after they take control of the House and the Senate.
00:05:58.340 181-page.
00:06:00.880 Names of people they're going to go after.
00:06:04.000 These are corporations.
00:06:06.020 well this doesn't sound like fascism at all does it no but they're they were elected for affordability
00:06:13.560 they're going to make everything go that when they go after the corporations
00:06:18.120 and the corporations have to lawyer up and the corporations have to spend all of this money in
00:06:23.600 protection and then the corporations are going to bow a knee so they're going to have to spend all
00:06:28.000 this new money on advertisement that does nothing but say we're on your side we're on your side we're
00:06:33.200 on your side, those savings are going to be passed right on to you. So you're going to save a lot of
00:06:39.720 money. You'll save a lot of money at the gas tank. You'll save a lot of money when you're buying
00:06:44.580 t-shirts, jeans, anything, food. You're going to save a lot of money. Affordability is why they
00:06:53.400 were elected. Let's just keep that in mind. Affordability. Now, when you crush the AI
00:07:01.280 movement, when you crush these corporate giants, where do you think they're going to go?
00:07:07.880 Do you think they're just going to play by the rules here? When you go after Elon Musk,
00:07:15.040 a guy with a trillion dollars, do you think if you're trying to put him in jail and out of
00:07:21.360 business, he's going to stay here? No, he's going to be protected by Texas. Oh, no, wait,
00:07:28.380 he won't be protected by Texas because the people that were just elected by Texans in Texas
00:07:34.360 have already vowed to put him out of business.
00:07:37.940 it's going to be a long two years
00:07:51.640 it's going to be a very long two years
00:07:54.240 by the way the Asian markets
00:07:55.620 followed our route
00:07:58.360 this morning
00:07:59.720 Asia is down
00:08:01.240 we'll have more on that
00:08:02.560 coming up
00:08:04.320 but California's first
00:08:07.240 Latino governor, uh, is now welcoming, uh, is now welcoming new citizens, new migrants 0.99
00:08:18.220 across the border in her address after election day, but Sarah called ice mercenaries and
00:08:30.880 insisted the American dream is undeportable.
00:08:34.820 So the guy who went, where did I put those 400,000 children?
00:08:39.360 Where?
00:08:39.840 Did I leave them over here?
00:08:41.440 Did I put them in my pocket?
00:08:43.040 Did I leave them with sex offenders?
00:08:46.280 I just don't know.
00:08:50.020 Also, California's billionaire tax looks like it was defeated.
00:08:55.660 But they're already saying we're going to put higher taxes on the wealthy.
00:09:00.360 So just not the billionaires because they can't.
00:09:03.860 By the way, we have a migrant caravan on its way to California right now from Honduras.
00:09:13.220 Clashes are still erupting in Europe and in France yesterday.
00:09:19.600 I want you to batten down the hatches.
00:09:23.580 Let me give you one more thing.
00:09:25.020 let me see if i can find it here if i can get back to my email it would be very nice
00:09:38.020 i just got this in just before i started from afpi america's first policy institute
00:09:49.800 a readiness plan you ready here's something new you have to prepare for a readiness plan
00:09:56.660 quote preparing for congressional investigation
00:10:00.380 public statements by members of congress indicate that if party control of congress changes after
00:10:07.360 the november 26 election which it did they are going to pursue an expanded oversight agenda
00:10:14.120 which would reach outside of organizations, donors, contracts, and individuals connected to this administration.
00:10:22.620 Reported examples include statements that previously denied subpoenas and inquiries would be revisited.
00:10:28.680 Records request to private companies and contractors have already begun.
00:10:33.360 AFPI recommends organizations should not wait for a congressional letter to prepare.
00:10:39.120 So how are you supposed to prepare?
00:10:41.300 If you're a 501c3, you're a charity, your company decided to say, yeah, you know what?
00:10:48.560 I'm for America first.
00:10:50.700 If you were involved at all, if you were a donor, they are suggesting part one, retain
00:10:58.620 outside counsel experienced in congressional investigations now under a standby engagement
00:11:04.800 letter that covers the organization and covers individual employees.
00:11:08.840 Retaining counsel early helps support privilege for preparatory work.
00:11:12.980 Do not wait for a letter.
00:11:15.660 Have your insurance broker or coverage counsel review D&O management liability and general liability policies
00:11:24.080 to confirm whether they cover legal costs for congressional and other government inquiries.
00:11:29.100 So you want to talk about a transfer of wealth.
00:11:31.460 This is great.
00:11:32.380 You get to transfer your wealth to the lawyers.
00:11:36.100 But even better, they're Democrat lawyers.
00:11:41.060 Review all tax-exempt and political law compliance with counsel.
00:11:45.500 501c3 organizations must participate or intervene in any political campaign for or against a candidate for public office.
00:11:54.600 It's an absolute prohibition.
00:11:56.120 You must keep lobbying with limits, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
00:11:59.920 confirm that forms 990 state charitable registrations federal and state lobbying
00:12:06.440 disclosures are filed and consistent blah blah blah these are all things that you need to do
00:12:11.260 you should be doing in the first place and you should know these things donor protection
00:12:15.840 ensure that your donors privacy is absolute consider with counsel a factual briefing for
00:12:27.900 major donors about the organization's preparedness this is insane this is fascism
00:12:36.740 it goes on it's i don't even know five six seven some more it's eight pages long eight pages long
00:12:47.980 because that was step one then it gets into if a subpoena letter arrives what you must do
00:12:57.900 why did the stock market go down?
00:13:03.000 Because there's now a witch hunt.
00:13:06.680 They said they ran on teaching America a lesson.
00:13:12.120 They want to teach America a lesson.
00:13:14.600 If you don't agree with us and our policies,
00:13:17.860 if you agree that maybe the country should go in this direction,
00:13:22.580 not that direction,
00:13:23.780 if you agree that we should have smaller government,
00:13:26.980 not bigger government we will punish you and even if we can't put you in jail
00:13:32.680 we will punish you and the system will be the punishment we'll these are their words we will
00:13:41.260 bankrupt you to teach you and to teach anyone coming up in their teens or their 20s not to
00:13:50.640 participate in anything on the right. That is Hitlerism. If somebody broke the law, they should 0.90
00:14:02.960 go to jail. I've been saying that during the Biden administration, this administration, now that
00:14:08.380 they're in charge. If anyone in the Trump administration broke the law, they should go to
00:14:13.240 jail. But they should go to jail along with anyone who broke the law in the Biden administration.
00:14:18.620 and all future administrations.
00:14:22.560 But we do not go find the people and then find the crime.
00:14:27.160 We see the crime and then go find the people who did it. 0.89
00:14:32.620 Otherwise, it's Hitlerism. 0.95
00:14:39.300 This is the best of the Glenn Beck Program. 0.94
00:14:42.040 hey here's some really good news over 50 000 babies have been saved this year more than 8 000

00:15:46.020 sponsored by preborn you're listening to the best of the glenn beck program
00:15:54.500 i gotta tell you i love marco rubio he just he responded to the press saying you know i think
00:16:08.260 he's going to quit and his response was which job uh he's not going anywhere he is not going
00:16:15.380 anywhere um it's going to get tough we told you that it was going to get tough um when people say
00:16:20.320 they're going to come after corporations they're going to come after you they're going to teach
00:16:23.580 people a lesson. You must believe them. Hope that they don't believe it and aren't going to do it.
00:16:29.980 Hope that they're just having hyperbole. But I'm telling you, Marxist and Islamist mean what they
00:16:36.320 say. And so when they come out and say, we're going after the corporations, we're going to go
00:16:40.580 after the AI companies, believe it. Yesterday, we've had people on the Insider say they lost
00:16:48.740 between $2,000 and $15,000 in their 401k yesterday, yesterday. The average 401k lost between $3,000
00:16:59.880 and $7,000. This is how you're affected by policies. I think they baked in changes that
00:17:10.100 might happen on day number one. That's why you didn't see the market crash. And then I think
00:17:14.760 there were a lot of people that were like, holy cow, they're serious. They are going to do all
00:17:20.000 of these things. They are going to go after oil. They are going to go after the AI. They are going
00:17:25.260 to go after the corporations. And so yesterday, I think you saw just the beginning of it with AI.
00:17:30.700 I wanted to get Carol Roth in because she watches this. She's an expert at this and I'm not.
00:17:35.620 Carol, what happened? Well, obviously, it's been a very long week. The week's been about
00:17:43.280 seven months long, and a lot of interesting things coming out. I think after, you know,
00:17:51.960 there was an initial shock period after Tuesday at the full route of what happened. And it took
00:17:59.280 a day to sort of digest what was going to, you know, what was going to happen going forward.
00:18:04.680 And I think that investors were looking to see if Democrats were just blustering and saying things
00:18:12.240 to try to get votes or if this was actually going to be their policy.
00:18:17.100 And then the following day, they came back and they said, well, you know, this is pretty
00:18:21.100 much going to be our policy.
00:18:23.260 And I think that's what the market, you know, why you saw a difference between Wednesday
00:18:28.400 and Thursday in the market.
00:18:29.900 So you saw a big sell off because our economy, which, you know, is projecting a pretty nice
00:18:36.620 growth rate for this year is highly dependent upon AI and the build out that's happening there
00:18:43.500 to drive that growth. So when you have Democrats coming out and saying, we're going after Elon
00:18:49.320 Musk, we're going after the tech bros, we're going to shut down AI. And that's the driver
00:18:55.440 of both the economy and, you know, recently the markets as well. Obviously, that's not going to
00:19:02.320 be taken so well. So, you know, what's scary is they're there. They've they've taken steps now
00:19:10.200 and to make sure everybody knows they're serious about AI. But the two drivers, the two drivers
00:19:15.400 of our future that Donald Trump has spent the last two years trying to build and shore up have
00:19:21.220 been AI and energy. And yesterday, the Democrats said they're going after the deal in Venezuela
00:19:28.700 that gave us all that oil that this is insanity you think you had high gas prices before oh my
00:19:37.140 gosh are they going to do that carol i mean i guess the question is and you know so i'm a
00:19:44.300 financial person i am not as well schooled on all the permutations of how things work between
00:19:50.080 you know the congress and what they can sneak by the president what they can't you normally if you
00:19:55.880 have, you know, some sort of a deadlock where you have a president that's a different party than
00:20:00.780 Congress, that would normally be seen as a good thing because they can't do anything that, you
00:20:05.860 know, is too disruptive. But I think there is concern, both that they're going to try to undo
00:20:12.220 some of the things that have been done. And I don't know if, you know, President Trump through
00:20:16.300 vetoes and whatnot can put a stop to all of those. But I think the other issue, Glenn, is at the state
00:20:22.160 and local level, and particularly what happened in Texas, which has been a refuge for so many
00:20:29.960 tech companies. They fled California to try to get away from the restrictions there. And lo and
00:20:36.080 behold, now Texas has turned into at least Illinois, if not California. So I think there's
00:20:43.480 concern that at the state and local level, even if they can't get it done federally, what does that
00:20:49.980 mean? And what you're going to see in the markets play out over the next few weeks, and I can give
00:20:55.380 you another few data points to watch. But one of the things is, can these tech companies pivot?
00:21:02.500 It looks like North Dakota is really open right now to AI data centers. So is everybody going to
00:21:08.580 all of a sudden move to North Dakota and to these other states that are friendly to AI? And can they
00:21:13.860 make that pivot? And is, you know, does that disrupt or, you know, create some sort of lag
00:21:19.380 in the time period for their growth? And can that be done seamlessly? Or, you know, is this really
00:21:25.040 going to be an issue because you don't just have these issues happening federally, you have have
00:21:31.400 it happening on a state and local level? You have Elon Musk building a building here in Texas
00:21:36.020 that is so large, it's two and a half miles long. The when they were designing it, they had to
00:21:43.320 design and take into consideration the curvature of the earth. I mean, that's not something you
00:21:50.520 just pull up and stop. You just don't do it. And I mean, I think Texas, I mean, what people don't
00:22:01.040 understand, I'd like you to explain this. What people don't understand is that in the last couple
00:22:05.260 of recessions, I think, I know for sure in 08, Texas accounted for almost 50% of all rebirth and
00:22:16.600 job growth. So when you go into a deep recession, you lose Texas. It's the engine of the United
00:22:24.780 States of America because it's an entrepreneurial state where you can just start things quickly and
00:22:31.280 just go yeah and i'm also very worried personally for elon musk there has been so much vitriol
00:22:40.360 directed at him you know there's predictions that he is supposed to account personally for
00:22:46.540 you know a million new jobs and so when you have these these people who you know at the worst i
00:22:53.120 don't even want to talk about what they could do but they could just try to stymie him tie him up
00:22:58.760 bring him in front of Congress, make him have to waste time doing that instead of being a builder.
00:23:05.260 You know, I wrote a piece a few weeks back that we need thousands more Elon Musks.
00:23:10.700 Because regardless of what you think of him personally, the impact of his leadership,
00:23:16.300 and he has, it's not just him, he has a great team behind him, but whatever his leadership
00:23:20.460 style is, he's creating and putting together these great people and giving them the tools
00:23:25.180 to move things forward. And if we don't have more of that, if we have people who are saying,
00:23:30.900 you know, we're going to stymie the only things that are really growing in this economy,
00:23:35.900 you know, that is going to reverberate throughout the economy. And even, Glenn, just the overhang
00:23:42.060 of that, you know, we talk about consumer sentiment, we talk about the sentiment of
00:23:47.340 Americans, and some people say, well, you know, that's not numbers, it's vibes. But vibes become
00:23:52.860 numbers, fields become numbers, because if you do not feel secure as a consumer, if you're worried
00:23:58.300 about your job, if you're a small business owner and you're worried about what's going to happen
00:24:02.820 with these Democrats, you are not going to expand and hire. You're not going to go out and have an
00:24:08.420 amazing Christmas season and spend even more money because you're worried about what's going
00:24:13.560 to happen to your job. And then that becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy that gets absorbed by
00:24:19.180 the economy. So we need to have more positivity. We need to have more talk about removing the
00:24:25.000 barriers. And the first thing that these heathens, these Marxists, these socialists do are talking
00:24:30.820 about all the way that they can stymie growth. And that is bad for America.
00:24:35.640 Marc Andreessen just gave a great talk about managerial schools. And the time for managerial
00:24:42.780 schools is not now. The time for managerial schools are when things are stable. But right
00:24:48.340 now we need disruptors because that's what's happening in every industry it's disrupting
00:24:54.360 you know i've been a disruptor my whole life on many different things last year we disrupted i
00:25:01.080 left uh the blaze you know i sold the blaze i'm still on the blaze but i left the blaze uh and
00:25:08.160 started my own thing we have been disrupting in every way newsweek just did an article fox is
00:25:14.640 dying they were named three shows that conservatives uh are doing that show growth i think we added
00:25:22.240 like 86 million listeners um and viewers uh to us we were one of the three but that didn't even
00:25:30.180 include the growth that has happened in the last four months in the last four months i'm probably
00:25:35.420 in the next four months i will have doubled my staff because we're becoming efficient really
00:25:42.520 really good and we're disrupting everything that's important and what they want to do is
00:25:49.320 stifle everybody who is a disruptor they want to put you back into the 1974 model of how business
00:25:56.700 is done that will just that will make us europe overnight you literally took the words right out
00:26:03.420 of my mouth i was going to finish your sentence with this is europe we had a discussion a couple
00:26:08.120 weeks ago about France and how many people get their money because they are government workers
00:26:13.620 and how the private sector lags the government sector and how that has ruined the economy there
00:26:20.280 and has put them far behind even others in Europe. And that's the trajectory we're on.
00:26:26.000 The Democrats, the Marxists, the, you know, whatever is you want to call them,
00:26:31.500 they want to expand their power base. And so, you know, if you want a really good business idea,
00:26:36.660 and I guess for 2027, you open up an NGO or a leering center, right? Because fraud is their
00:26:43.360 business. But I'm sorry, fraud does not grow America. It's stealing money from the hardworking
00:26:49.780 Americans. And that's the thing that's so frustrating. I talked to a friend of mine
00:26:53.940 yesterday who's originally from Poland. She has a master's degree, but she came here and now she
00:26:58.920 cleans houses. She works really hard. And she's so frustrated because she's working Saturdays and 0.91
00:27:05.060 nights and everything and they're taking more and more of her money and then telling her that she's
00:27:10.240 not paying enough i know and and then giving that money to somalia yeah um let me ask you this and
00:27:17.060 i've only got about a minute and a half and and i'll have to have you back and describe this but
00:27:20.920 um a high level bernie sanders and i think they're going to do this um trump will veto it but it will
00:27:28.600 become very popular. They want to take over a fifth of the economy. They now want full-on
00:27:35.840 socialized medicine. What does that do to our economy and to our medicine here in America?
00:27:43.020 Well, listen, you can't have everything, right? You can't have things that are
00:27:46.720 low cost and when you want it and high quality. And so you end up giving up some of those things,
00:27:54.700 they're trade-offs. So if they try to take it over, first of all, it's never low cost because
00:27:59.600 it's just hidden cost. It's transferring it from one person to another person. But there's also
00:28:04.720 not the built-in incentives to have good health care. And so our health care system is messed up
00:28:10.760 and it's not great in many places, but it's certainly better than where it has socialized
00:28:14.880 medicine. And you can talk to people who are in places like England and Canada and people I know
00:28:20.820 who've been sent home from the emergency room and almost died because they had some major issue.
00:28:25.720 And it was like, well, we have a, you know, a 20 hour wait too bad for you. So this would be an
00:28:30.640 absolute disaster. Socialism has never worked at scale anywhere that it's tried. And we need to
00:28:36.620 have more capitalism. We need more of the private sector. And that's the that's the key here.
00:28:42.720 Let me ask you, but what does that do to the rest of the world wanting to buy our treasury bonds?
00:28:48.280 if we're not cutting we're actually now taking on health care that they're all suffering and
00:28:54.920 dying under okay so this is like a full discussion that's not a couple minutes but
00:28:59.320 the very quick the very quick the very quick way to say this is we can't even afford what we have
00:29:04.800 now the interest on our debt is a trillion dollars and growing it's more than we spend on defense
00:29:09.900 how the heck are we going to continue to widen that deficit there isn't enough money out there
00:29:16.620 And like you said, we're going to we're going to end up blowing up the global financial markets.
00:29:19.880 But I'd love to get into that in greater detail.
00:29:22.040 Let's do that. Let's do that next week, because that is coming.
00:29:25.400 And people need to be prepared with, you know, with with the argument against it.
00:29:29.940 And it has to be simple and way for everyone to understand quickly, because everybody's going to say, oh, well, I want free health care.
00:29:38.080 And that's that's coming. And they're going to say that. And it will blow this thing up.
00:29:43.900 It's the free candy van.
00:29:45.880 When you see the free candy van and the stranger in the back that says, I've got free candy and puppies, it never ends well for anyone.
00:29:53.860 You make me think of that creepy guy that I used to be afraid of in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, where he's like, I've got lollipops.
00:30:02.740 Exactly.

00:30:55.500 victor how are you sir very good glenn thanks for having me oh it's great to have you and i
00:31:09.160 i've been looking forward to this because i've been trying to find i've been trying to find
00:31:14.240 reason uh i don't want to get angry about it i i don't want to just keep pointing fingers i just
00:31:20.860 want a path forward and i figure with everything that is in your head you might have one yeah well
00:31:28.460 i think obama and clinton kind of showed us because remember they came in with huge
00:31:33.400 congressional majorities and by their last two years their last midterms although clinton did
00:31:38.680 not too bad in his last one they they had republican uh dominance in the in the entire
00:31:46.360 congress and so what did they do well they said uh take obama he said i have a pen and a phone
00:31:53.400 so then he started to it was just executive order rampage and he vetoed now you can't you cannot
00:32:01.400 appoint cabinet officers and you cannot appoint judges so if donald trump wants to do that they've
00:32:06.280 got to get right at it and win this lame duck congress but look at what obama did and i i don't
00:32:12.760 mean this glennan admiration i'm just taught because i was opposed to all of it but he
00:32:17.480 recognized cuba that was a revolutionary thing to do there was no consensus and i'm not suggesting
00:32:22.920 trump do things like that but he did and then he went into this disastrous paris climate accord
00:32:29.160 and then he went into the iran deal as a lame duck no congressional support he said you know what
00:32:35.800 you don't need these aren't treaties if you take clinton he was a little better but he he went and
00:32:41.800 and called Genrich up and he said, I had two balanced budgets, let's get two more. And they
00:32:45.700 did. But then he said, NATO kept saying, we want to get rid of Milosevic. He's killing everybody
00:32:51.860 in Kosovo. He's a maniac. And the Republicans were sort of very reluctant. They said, well, 1.00
00:32:56.600 you know, this isn't a NATO project and we're going to end up doing all the heavy lifting.
00:33:00.420 And that's exactly what happened. But then he went ahead. And for 55 days, he was suffering.
00:33:06.500 He didn't do anything, couldn't, and then he made a very radical decision.
00:33:11.940 He says, I'm going to hit dual-use targets, something that we wouldn't do in Iran because we were on the side of the Iranian people. 0.55
00:33:19.080 But he did. 0.68
00:33:20.200 He hit bridges on the Danube.
00:33:22.260 He took out electrical grids.
00:33:24.800 And then 77 days later, Milosevic fell.
00:33:28.640 But he never asked Congress.
00:33:29.780 So what I'm getting at is I don't, historically, I don't see any restrictions on foreign policy except within the Republican party that's, you know, his cabinet or anything like that.
00:33:42.620 Domestically, he wasn't getting, to be candid, Glenn, he wasn't really getting things through because he had a narrow, you know, you know that better than I do.
00:33:51.140 He had a lot of, I don't know why, I don't mean a derogatory term, but rhinos or people who were moderates or they were in purple states and they couldn't vote for him.
00:33:58.340 whatever the reason so the main thing is he's got to keep that 45 seat or i don't know if it's going
00:34:07.000 to shrink to 44 minority and they have to be locked solid because if they get down to 40
00:34:14.060 then you're going to start this yeah yeah that's all over so that's the main thing to keep keep the
00:34:21.320 the senate minority united and i think after the other thing very quickly glenn is that
00:34:27.440 we it's all doom and gloom everybody's blaming each other but
00:34:31.680 they don't really we're in the eye of the hurricane i'll take you give you an example
00:34:36.660 165 000 new jobs were just announced i know i know and they were saying 45 a month ago the poverty
00:34:45.000 rate is at an all-time low at 10.5 the per the per capita family income is 87 000 a new record
00:34:53.620 the gdp was just we revised at 3.4 and the atlanta fed said it'll be five by the end of the year
00:35:01.260 geez what it's it's actually nobody's talking we're just fighting and we are in the midst of
00:35:08.440 a boom that is emerging and i look back at 2020 when the red wave dissipated and why did the blue
00:35:16.340 wave not so i compared the data the stock market is 20 at least until yesterday was 20 000 points
00:35:24.580 higher now than when biden stopped the red wave and income is 14 000 higher than it was just four
00:35:32.280 years ago so then people say it's it's inflation it's gas well no it isn't because that was a 9.1
00:35:40.700 record inflation year in 2022. And gas on election day was somewhere between $3.95 and $4.05. It's
00:35:50.380 $4.06 today. So what I'm getting at, the economy was a wreck. The GDP was lower. The inflation was
00:35:58.120 three times higher. The gas was about the same. People were furious about Africa. So what was
00:36:05.200 the difference and i think the only thing i could come up with is donald trump came in with a 21
00:36:11.180 inflation rate and people said he'll lower it but yeah you can't do that unless you have a recession
00:36:18.300 or deflationary depression so he lowered the rate of inflation to 2.4 the first year even this year
00:36:24.860 it's going to be less than half of the it'll be about half or a little bit more than the five
00:36:29.680 percent that biden averaged every year but they never i think there weren't people that went out
00:36:35.740 to the people and said prices are high and we can't lower those but we can lower the rate
00:36:41.740 inflation and we can increase the the per capita family income so you can absorb that i think part
00:36:46.820 of the problem with donald trump was they had nobody telling the story they had no one telling
00:36:52.720 the story and they needed to do that um i'm glad to hear you say that you know he can keep moving
00:37:01.940 forward can't with with the things that they're going to do in congress um and just the investigations
00:37:08.760 and and everything else how much do you think this is going to affect just just just the threat
00:37:15.300 of shutting down all the ai data centers and everything else and saying we are going to start
00:37:21.660 regulating just the threats that they can make it's going to be i think the republicans are 0.95
00:37:28.020 really i know that they feel ai but ai whether we like it or not it's either going to be a chinese
00:37:32.840 future or it's going to be our future and we're better custodian and you know what on i just
00:37:39.040 looked in preparation this morning i looked at the top 10 companies in ai software digital media
00:37:47.380 satellite launches and nine out of the top 10 in almost every category are american this is
00:37:53.740 phenomenal 31 trillion dollars gdp 10 trillion more than 400 1.4 billion chinese can achieve
00:38:02.500 we did that with 330 million but that story i never heard it i heard scott besant try to do it
00:38:09.340 yeah but i thought i thought all the cabinet members leading up to the midterm would be
00:38:13.640 talking about the economy but and trying to explain why the prices went up but i'm really
00:38:20.220 discouraged that have you been watching this civil war where everybody's just tearing each
00:38:25.460 they're tearing each other apart i know and we're splitting apart and rubio's like neocon and vance
00:38:32.460 is awful and it's just it's and when they're fighting and they don't realize that they have
00:38:38.120 a common enemy i don't want to use that dimming up but a common opponent that even the thought of
00:38:43.900 those people gaining power has already spooked the investors on wall street and so what do we
00:38:52.000 have to do what what is the message that brings us that that can that can be a message that you
00:38:57.220 can start to build now that will take us into 2030 what what should we be standing for i think we
00:39:04.400 need to say we have been doing we we have been doing the right thing on the economy and the
00:39:11.140 fruits of it are already manifest and we've got to talk about that and the only missing link
00:39:15.820 is affordability and that was not our fault but it is our responsibility to lower it and we're
00:39:21.140 going to do that and here's how and then we have to say whatever your views are uh overseas iran
00:39:29.260 is a controversial country and we are culpable because we didn't explain fully to the american
00:39:34.840 people that you when you have a 93 million 93 uh million size state that has been the largest
00:39:42.400 strongest most formidable terrorist state in the world that spooked seven presidents it was an
00:39:49.680 enormous under cake to dismantle its nuclear program and we we have achieved it almost
00:39:55.820 and tell tell people that and we'd have no apologies but we're not i think the problem was
00:40:02.340 and i'm not finger finger pointing i think after 38 days we had done 90 of the damage
00:40:08.940 that we just looked at pickaxe mountain said if there's residual we do it and then we keep the
00:40:15.240 straight open and we keep these sanctions on and then we arm let the israelis arm this kurds 0.52
00:40:22.560 instead of saying turkey doesn't like it and go home and say, you know what, 0.50
00:40:27.500 we can do that.
00:40:28.220 If we find more nuclear material or they send, we'll come by.
00:40:32.820 But let's just do the job, finish it in a week or whatever it takes to get rid
00:40:37.360 of the pickaxe mountain if there's stuff there and then go home.
00:40:42.280 But that's a compromised position from the people who say it was a horrible
00:40:47.140 thing and it didn't work.
00:40:49.480 It did work. 0.82
00:40:50.500 This regime had killed 40,000 of its own people, and now they have – let them stew in their own juice and let this restive population, as the economy tightens in Iran, they will eventually come back out. 0.63
00:41:02.740 They really will. 0.59
00:41:04.040 And it's not over.
00:41:05.240 It's a good thing what we did.
00:41:06.760 We just talked, talked, talked for seven months, and that was a mistake.
00:41:11.360 Victor, I've got 90 seconds left.
00:41:13.200 Let me, I'm very concerned about the elections that are coming up in Europe, how that's going to play out, all of the unrest there.
00:41:22.040 This, I kind of feel in a way, it's very nuanced here, but in a way, what we saw on Tuesday was the first global election of my lifetime. 0.92
00:41:32.740 Because the forces of Marxism and Islamism, that is a global effort all over the West.
00:41:40.700 I'm not saying they coordinated or anything like that, but they were working towards the same goal and helping each other in each other's states. 0.85
00:41:49.340 I mean, the iron broom that Slotkin talked about is a Polish term, and she was over there and learned it from them, and that's what they're doing, and now she's saying that's what we're going to do here.
00:42:00.140 How concerned are you about the stability of Europe in the next 12 months? 0.94
00:42:04.220 I'm very, very concerned, and especially because the forces that are on our side look toward the United States. 0.79
00:42:13.060 The Islamicists and the socialists say, we've never been able to make inroads to the United States. 0.65
00:42:18.080 That is the bulwark of the West.
00:42:20.340 Europe is gone.
00:42:21.660 I don't think it's gone, but they think it's gone.
00:42:24.140 And the Western Hemisphere and the former British Commonwealth, the democratized Asian countries,
00:42:30.640 they all look to the united states to be favorable to free markets and to be democratic and to stand
00:42:37.840 for western and when they look at what's going on they think oh my god there's not if the u.s
00:42:42.800 goes where is it there's nothing left we are the guardian we're sort of i don't know how you'd call
00:42:49.440 it the lord of the rings gondor of tokyo yeah we're the last bastion and if we go we have
00:42:55.600 responsibilities these people in europe that really want to reform and they look to us for
00:43:00.520 leadership and we can't go islamicist or socialist because there's no there's no other there there
00:43:06.040 except us victor thank you god bless you thank you thanks for everything you do victor davis hansen
