wow uh it's what i have to say wow uh that was i mean vampire space bunnies did not come down
00:00:19.480
onto the platform today but i will tell you i'm almost as shocked as i would have been with
00:00:26.660
vampire space bunnies arriving uh that was a performance from donald trump the likes of which
00:00:34.940
i haven't seen it was reagan-esque he was he was compassion compassion trolling he was like and i
00:00:43.720
feel bad i feel bad for you i mean i could you explain that i mean he really he complimented
00:00:52.000
the moderator who i'm pretty sure he knows who she is and she let joe biden off the hook several
00:01:02.680
times and if you look at what they were talking about none of it was donald trump's strength and
00:01:08.960
i thought he creamed him i thought he creamed him i think there was definitely a moment where the
00:01:15.240
biden staffers were hoping for the bunny invasion yeah he spoke of maybe that would interrupt the
00:01:19.700
evening uh that was night and day i think from debate number one he would have done that the
00:01:24.180
first time this would have this would be a different uh scenario and this may you know who
00:01:28.880
knows i think this is a really good performance i think by trump i was frustrated a few times at
00:01:32.540
the moderator whenever he tried to get near the hunter biden thing she stepped she stepped on it
00:01:36.980
and cut him off but overall she was much better than chris wallace i thought he is clearly now on the
00:01:43.020
record denying taking any money having his family enriched themselves yeah uh millions of dollars it
00:01:50.700
was 1.3 billion that was invested through his family from china um he's he's now clearly on the
00:01:58.940
record this if if he becomes president he will be forced to resign early in his presidency if he even
00:02:06.760
makes it um because of the scandal it will not go away yeah i definitely uh was i shouldn't say
00:02:13.420
surprised but uh it's always striking to see joe biden just the audacity that he has to just lie the
00:02:19.560
way that he does lies that we know are clearly lies and he just stands there and lies and it just comes
00:02:25.800
out of his tongue comes out of his mouth so easily it's scary it was to me i thought donald trump had a
00:02:32.540
couple of strategies one let him talk wear him out yeah two um be kind and compassionate and and
00:02:41.720
polite he did those two things really really well the other paint him as a typical politician here's a
00:02:50.140
president who made a credible case i ain't part of the system i'm in the oval office every day and i'm
00:02:59.800
not part of the system and he did when he took him on on that that one uh rant where joe biden was
00:03:06.900
like look and i know you were talking to your daughter suzy who lost her eyes at least one of
00:03:13.980
them is with that lost sock she had and you sit there and you talk and i understand you and when
00:03:19.940
donald trump had the nerve to say what is that answer except a stereotypical political politician
00:03:27.920
yeah i just thought it was brilliant yeah i thought he was sharp tonight and i thought uh joe biden was
00:03:34.320
not and that's the type of thing that i think the president uh needed and wanted i i i marked the time
00:03:40.600
uh when joe biden started to fade where he started to get little lost and it was 34 minutes in the
00:03:47.560
president of the united states can't have a 30 minute runtime before he starts to get fuzzy we have
00:03:56.060
donald trump jr on with us now don i thought your father was lightning in a bottle tonight this was
00:04:04.860
the best performance i have seen um it was very reagan-esque he was very ronald reagan tonight
00:04:11.960
uh listen i thought it was awesome i was watching that and that's what we you know lost last time
00:04:17.920
when you had sort of the constant interruption is he didn't get to go through his record and i love
00:04:21.840
that he called out joe biden which is this is great joe your ideas they're wonderful why'd you
00:04:26.700
wait 47 years to implement any of them this is what we hate about our washington dc politics it's
00:04:32.740
all talk and no action and if you look through donald trump's record you look at what he's gotten done
00:04:37.680
he had it on the tips of his finger he pointed out to the american people since the mainstream media
00:04:42.260
refuses to do any of that glenn i i just thought i don't know the strategy that he used today to be
00:04:51.140
a i mean i think he was concerned trolling um where he seemed really genuine he he was not mean he was
00:05:02.280
not angry um and he boxed joe biden into every corner the opening joe biden seemed like the grim reaper
00:05:11.060
i mean we were we're entering the winter of death or whatever it was he said dark winter
00:05:16.080
it was stark the difference between the two yeah 100 and i mean that's the reality and that's what
00:05:23.080
the democrats have been doing with covet all along it's why you see the response as it relates to
00:05:27.100
the blue states versus the red states because the democrats don't care if you go into a lockdown if
00:05:31.220
you lose your job you lose your business uh if you lose your livelihood we'll put you on a
00:05:36.420
government program you'll be a democrat voter for life it's like their game plan at this point
00:05:40.700
uh this notion that you know somehow new york when he pointed out to new york as the example
00:05:45.680
when joe biden said new york's the example by which to follow i go please list me one metric
00:05:51.060
where new york isn't like 49 or 50 out of 50 in terms of terrible performance infection rate death
00:05:57.440
rate destruction of business shutdown business people moving out of the state because of those
00:06:02.480
same failed policies i mean give me one example where new york isn't like exactly what you don't want
00:06:08.140
to do exactly right and so you know djt called him out on that thing was awesome um the other
00:06:13.080
thing that um i think there were a lot of people on the right at least at least i was because i was
00:06:20.040
in 2010 looking at the cages and begging people in the media to pay attention to the cages i think there
00:06:27.620
were a lot of people at least on the right that were saying thank god when he said who built the
00:06:33.260
cages who built the cages who built the cages it was frustrating that the moderator would not
00:06:40.460
reinforce could you just answer that question on a couple of those questions i mean she was
00:06:46.800
relatively i think she cut off my father a lot more than she did joe biden but for the most part i
00:06:50.920
thought it was you know it was reasonable and as best as we're going to expect from a you know from
00:06:54.640
a former o biden uh o biden obama administration sort of person so you know i don't expect much but it
00:07:00.880
was definitely better than i would have thought and probably much better than joe biden's intern
00:07:04.280
steve scully would have given us in the second debate so no i think that was important i think
00:07:08.220
it was also important to point out the stuff about china and hunter biden we've literally glenn we've
00:07:13.620
never had a presidential candidate that's more likely compromised uh more likely paid off by foreign
00:07:21.820
entities and when joe biden was bad at my tax return yeah there's there's plenty of ways
00:07:25.260
hunter's holding it for you uh let's see hunter's tax returns let's see jim biden's tax returns let's
00:07:31.720
talk about this they want to talk about my father the reality is yes we've had businesses all over
00:07:36.400
the world that's what we did unlike hunter biden we were actually international business people prior
00:07:43.160
to taking office we stopped doing new deals going forward when hunter got the opportunity to pedal off
00:07:48.600
of his father's vice presidency that's when he became an international businessman magically he offered
00:07:54.220
no services he had no skill set that didn't stop him from making millions and millions of dollars
00:07:59.120
from the biden family now his partner comes out and corroborates it and the media is pretending like
00:08:04.220
this thing isn't real like it didn't happen the reality is this glenn the democrats and nancy pelosi
00:08:09.720
they impeached donald trump for being right about joe biden let me let me let me tell you um that
00:08:18.320
it you have now joe biden on the record saying he and his family never taken any money uh they never
00:08:26.820
did any business deals uh with china uh there was never any you know tit for tat um and and the all
00:08:35.560
the documents uh that are coming out have all been disproven i mean you have him on the record six
00:08:41.920
ways to sunday uh and the and especially the the uh the the last one was the the laptop was russian
00:08:50.180
your your father handled that brilliantly i i thought that was awesome but here we go again
00:08:57.280
russia russia russia by the way the director of national intelligence and more importantly the fbi and i
00:09:01.840
don't say more importantly the fbi because they have any more credibility i think more importantly even
00:09:07.280
they acknowledge it and let's just face it the fbi was part of the coup the highest levels of the fbi
00:09:13.580
they hid the exculpatory evidence from flynn so i use that as the example like these people are no
00:09:18.620
trump fans and even they said yes there's absolutely no proof of that but that doesn't stop adam shift
00:09:25.360
from going on and saying it's the gospel it doesn't stop these people that the 50 people that joe biden
00:09:30.280
always refers to the partisan democrat hacks oh yeah it's a russian they have no proof of this whatsoever
00:09:35.360
frankly everyone says it's exactly the opposite the same never trumpers and the democrats are pushing
00:09:41.160
iranian disinformation we know that to be a case you think that's because trump is soft on iran or do
00:09:46.300
you think it's because they want joe biden to win because they know he's going to give them whatever
00:09:51.160
they want of course that's the case it's why everyone's going to be soft on joe biden it's why
00:09:55.760
our intelligence agencies say china wants joe biden to win because he's compromised he's been bought and
00:10:01.840
paid for yeah maybe joe doesn't have the money it's sort of magical how he went from 300 000 income
00:10:06.680
to 17 million but you know i'm sure it has nothing to do with hunter and hunter and the s corps and the
00:10:12.320
brother jim all the money they're probably holding guess what i wouldn't get the benefit of the doubt
00:10:17.500
glenn if they said hey uh d is going to get 10 million and hold 10 for the big guy i i wouldn't
00:10:23.940
get that they're like well we have no idea who h is there's three people on the email only one of
00:10:27.940
their name starts with h i mean what does anyone believe is going on you know that they're pretending
00:10:33.240
that this is russian disinformation i didn't get that same benefit of the doubt glenn i didn't have
00:10:38.540
any benefit of the doubt when they tried pinning much less frankly than what hunter biden did but
00:10:44.080
they accused me of doing things similar hunter biden did about 1 000 times what i was accused of
00:10:49.680
doing turns out it was nothing it didn't stop them from dragging me through the mud for three years it
00:10:53.920
didn't stop me from having to do 30 hours of testimony it didn't stop them from running with
00:10:58.900
no basis whatsoever that donald trump is an agent of russia so all of these quote unquote journalists
00:11:04.700
who are pretending that this doesn't meet their standard if it doesn't meet the standard why
00:11:08.900
wouldn't the biden campaign just come out and say the emails are not real i mean that would be a
00:11:13.000
simple solution it's been five days no one's done that because it's right hunter biden's partner
00:11:17.720
a navy veteran confirmed it can we stop playing this game we may give the presidency to a guy that
00:11:24.180
could be bought and paid for by ukraine russia china and who knows who else it's disgusting don let me um
00:11:31.420
we have just about a minute left with you and i i want to hit one more thing i thought there were two
00:11:36.460
really important things that came out there towards the end when biden i think was losing steam and that is
00:11:45.000
no fracking on federal land if you know anything at all about oil contracts or or natural gas contracts
00:11:54.280
in the united states federal land is what matters there if you close down federal land you're pretty much
00:12:03.640
closing up fracking uh to a great extent and then i will shut down the oil industry um i mean 15 years
00:12:14.980
to go from where we are uh to all electric and if you're doing electric where's that power coming
00:12:23.040
from uh you know coal power it's not electric power it's coal powered yeah or natural gas power
00:12:29.360
that's the reality and no one talks about that but yeah it was important for my father to hit that
00:12:33.580
home i put it up on my twitter feed there's like literally a video of like 15 examples of joe biden
00:12:38.400
talking about how he's going to end these things how he's going to shut it down he's telling people
00:12:42.640
at the democratic debates he's doing it at town halls he's doing it at rallies but then he can
00:12:47.900
go to pennsylvania say exactly the opposite and the media that's supposed to be fact checking all of
00:12:52.580
these things notice they never fact check that they just let him get away with it because they
00:12:56.020
know it would hurt him in pennsylvania just like they know his crime bill and his issues on race
00:13:01.240
i was so glad my father was able to talk about his successes the things that he was able to do as
00:13:06.040
it relates to the african-american community the hispanic community and everyone else frankly as it
00:13:10.900
relates to prison reform to right the wrongs of joe biden's disastrous 90s crime bill that put so
00:13:16.960
many families away that by the way created problems for families because we all know fatherless families
00:13:21.900
uh the statistics don't work out all that well joe biden put tens of thousands of these people in
00:13:27.200
jail but now he's going to fix it uh no one believes it anymore and joe biden was called out tonight and
00:13:32.520
called out uh in the words of donald trump bigly uh donald trump jr thank you so much god bless and
00:13:40.240
uh our best to your father and uh and to all the people who are out on the road with him stay safe
00:13:46.140
thank you so much tom um there you know i i think the blaze is the only group that actually went to dhs
00:13:55.120
and and ask them for a statement on these missing children story okay because that doesn't make sense
00:14:04.560
these children where then where are the parents if you left your kid either one of you you had the
00:14:11.340
government of mexico you were crossing and the government of mexico had your kid for two years
00:14:16.720
or whatever it is where would you be i would not turn around and go home right forget about it right
00:14:23.360
yeah you'd be standing outside of whatever facility the kid was in banging down the doors and you would
00:14:27.500
find every parent that you knew of these 500 and you would try to get international press because
00:14:33.620
they would listen to you so we didn't it didn't feel right to us so the blaze asked uh chase jennings
00:14:40.160
from the department of homeland security this is the response from official homeland security
00:14:47.480
this narrative has been dispelled on numerous occasions dhs has taken every step to
00:14:53.040
facilitate the reunification of these families where the parents wanted such reunification to
00:14:58.620
occur the simple fact is after contact was made with the parents to reunite them with their children
00:15:05.860
many parents have refused in the current litigation for example out of the parents of 485 children
00:15:14.540
whom's plaintiff's counsel have been able to contact they have yet to identify a single family
00:15:20.980
that wants their child reunited with them in their country the result is the children remain in the
00:15:28.640
u.s while the parents remain in their home country the reunification process is a whole of government
00:15:34.800
approach involving cb uh p ice and hhs what kind of parent don't don't play on my heartstrings about
00:15:44.380
these poor parents that haven't been united with their children and the children that haven't been
00:15:48.800
reunited what parent allows a child to stay in government custody instead of coming home well
00:15:59.680
that's what has made this talking point from the left so despicable because they know that it's not
00:16:04.980
like they don't know that they understand that these children are being brought here by coyotes that
00:16:09.360
these children are being brought here by other people or that the parents are just simply you know
00:16:12.880
taking them and dropping them off and turning around and leaving they know that and yet they still
00:16:16.620
continue with this narrative this talking point that you know children are being separated from
00:16:20.980
their they're being ripped from their parents at the border you know they're being ripped apart
00:16:25.400
families are being ripped apart at the border and they simply know that that's not true and that's
00:16:28.920
what's been so frustrating about this talking point and that's what was so frustrating hearing joe biden
00:16:33.140
tell that bold-faced lie again tonight that parents were waiting to be reunified they all know that that's not
00:16:39.120
true and we should at least have a word of defense for the parents in the other country because some of
00:16:43.600
these kids could have been really annoying that's true and they just like i had to leave them there
00:16:48.000
that's a great one i want i want to be across the board i do have a baby who screams all the time so i
00:16:52.560
can kind of understand right now let's just let's let's say this if you are in you're a parent and
00:16:59.260
you're in a part of the country where it's really bad drugs you have no chance of making it it's better
00:17:06.740
to leave your kid i could see this happening where it would tear my heart out but they have a better
00:17:12.800
chance of survival in america on their own than they would back home well that's a different story
00:17:19.120
and some of these stories are that way right i mean like either they're in a they're in a lot of
00:17:22.760
violence and and they want to get them out no matter what but it's think of what that commentary is
00:17:27.580
about our country right right it shows for all of the beating that it takes from the left and the
00:17:32.660
media about how terrible it is here people will literally abandon their children across the border
00:17:38.480
because they think it's more important for them to be on this side of the border than to be with
00:17:44.300
their own parents so who do you think won the covid thing last time donald trump they said was was
00:17:53.600
scaring old people um i heard this from donald trump supporters that he played it wrong and he was too
00:18:00.400
cavalier about it and and older people are concerned about covid they should um uh how did who won that
00:18:08.980
the the grim reaper saying we're all gonna die soon uh you know look at the i mean it was like empty
00:18:16.320
chairs and empty cables i mean i thought i was in les miserables for a minute who won i think you know
00:18:23.420
biden likes to keep it on that playing field right this is a playing field in which he's favored in the
00:18:28.700
polls by you know a significant amount over donald trump and part of this is not not that biden would
00:18:34.880
have done any better or anybody could have done any better but it's a really negative time and a
00:18:38.620
really terrible story and people associate that with the president who was the president at the time
00:18:43.240
and that's donald trump i thought he did a much better job explaining it here focusing it on
00:18:47.760
and this is something we've talked about many times saying that this is a serious situation but that we
00:18:53.580
also have to move on and keep our country open is is is a sensible position for conservatives i thought
00:18:59.500
he outlined it really well there talking about how look this has been devastating but we we've already
00:19:05.600
come back a good part of the way we have all these things right around the corner we're on the right
00:19:10.860
path and i thought when when he the more donald trump tries to defend random decisions he made in march
00:19:17.980
he's on the losing side of that the more he's looking to the future and saying we have a really
00:19:22.700
bright uh horizon that we're moving toward that's when i think he wins and i think he did a much better
00:19:28.380
job with that so sarah let me ask you this because when i heard joe biden say but this is what we have
00:19:33.400
to do we have to have sneeze guards goggles we need goggles yeah we we need sneeze guards at every booth
00:19:40.920
of every restaurant now maybe it's because we live in texas and common sense isn't entirely dead here
00:19:46.940
but the jury's out on that um every time i walk in and everybody i talk to when they go to a
00:19:53.700
restaurant with those things you have to walk in with a mask but soon as you sit in the booth with
00:20:00.080
plexiglass behind you and plexiglass in front of you but it's open over the plexiglass and everywhere else
00:20:07.520
suddenly you're safe and everybody knows that's a joke this was that an effective this is my plan well
00:20:15.540
first of all i don't know why you don't uh appreciate science which tells you that obviously
00:20:20.220
covid can't travel within a certain very heavy range yeah right to the ground yeah no i i do i would agree
00:20:26.140
with you and i do think that president trump resonated with the average american person when he also brought
00:20:31.680
up after joe biden said that he brought up the fact small businesses can't afford to do that they
00:20:36.180
can't afford to transform their restaurants their nail salons all of their places of business to put all
00:20:42.240
of these you know structures in place because you think that it makes people feel safer i also think
00:20:47.220
that he resonated with the american people because you know he did need to course correct a little bit
00:20:51.560
from the first debate but i think that he did that because it was essential that he reminded people
00:20:55.980
we do need to protect our elderly we do need to protect people with health conditions we do need
00:21:00.740
to protect people with diabetes he made sure to bring those people up and say i'm not saying we don't
00:21:05.720
need to protect them i'm just saying like stew like you said i'm just saying we have to move on
00:21:10.880
we have to open up the schools which i think was important for the suburban moms to hear as well
00:21:15.380
so i do think that president trump won that exchange although i will say the grim reaper as you pointed
00:21:21.260
out joe biden i don't think that he was horrible on it i think that he made his point which obviously
00:21:25.980
was to hammer president yeah i think that was the best section for joe biden yeah um but uh it was also
00:21:33.340
the beginning so that could have been any yeah it could have been at the beginning yeah it could have
00:21:36.880
been anything um we have steve dace coming up dave rubin also and then on tomorrow's program uh we're
00:21:43.240
going to talk to bill o'reilly and i believe we have um uh megan kelly on do we have megan kelly on
00:21:50.380
tomorrow yeah um and she is on fire about the press so she's going to be talking about how bad the press
00:21:57.820
is uh right now and some of these stories that'll be on radio right now we have um um ali beth stuckey
00:22:05.380
she is the uh host of relatable here on blaze tv and i want to start with you um ali on um
00:22:13.340
the president has apparently a deficit with suburban moms they i i think they probably feel that he is
00:22:24.880
unstable unkind and they don't want a world in which you know they see our leaders doing these kinds
00:22:32.880
of things two questions do you think the president um made them feel better at all tonight it is one
00:22:41.780
night enough this close to the election and two um do these same people do you think their dent was
00:22:51.420
made at all on the corruption of joe biden okay first question i think that if your concern as a
00:22:59.360
suburban woman is that trump is a bully he's too bombastic you don't like that kind of person
00:23:03.860
being an example for your kids then tonight of course was much better than the first debate as
00:23:09.680
far as the substance on what he was talking about possibly i think that he did a really good job
00:23:15.040
defending his positions and going into attack mode on joe biden where it mattered now as far as joe
00:23:22.020
biden's corruption i'm not sure that's a story that's going to resonate with suburban moms i also
00:23:27.360
don't think the russian collusion story even for suburban moms that don't like trump really resonated
00:23:32.560
they are very concerned from what i see on social media from the people i follow even the women that
00:23:37.460
i'm friends with that are pretty conservative in other ways it's a lot more about personality personal
00:23:43.840
failures personal flaws those things aren't going to come out in a debate quite as much so if this night
00:23:51.100
was enough to persuade them i'm not really sure there's been a big push by the biden campaign to
00:23:57.860
get in particular evangelical suburban moms of course i think they're very misguided and confused
00:24:03.880
but i don't think this debate in particular is going to have an effect on that group i don't know how
00:24:10.720
evangelicals well i don't know how harry reed was still a mormon in good standing with his
00:24:16.460
relationship with planned parenthood i don't know how evangelicals um uh can can go there but maybe
00:24:23.220
that's just me um the other thing that people are worried about jobs and health care how do you
00:24:30.860
think each of them did i think that i i think trump did very well one thing that i i think that was
00:24:39.420
probably the best for him is when he emphasized the cost of life when it comes to the lockdowns
00:24:46.240
that we have a necessity and a moral obligation to open up the country in a way that is safe i thought
00:24:52.540
joe biden was very weak on that all of the suggestions that joe biden was making for companies
00:24:57.780
to do use plexiglass and social distancing and masks people are already doing that that's the whole
00:25:02.640
point trump is saying let's trust businesses and people to make the best decisions for them
00:25:07.240
but let's not shut them down so that people are continuing to die because they're unemployed and
00:25:12.740
they're depressed and they're turning to alcoholism and tragically suicide that to me showed a lot of
00:25:18.080
empathy that i hope reaches some people that think that trump is some you know cold person that does
00:25:23.040
have to do with the jobs i think he did well on the economy and defending the necessity to open up the
00:25:29.440
country to make sure those jobs come back as far as health care i mean joe biden straight up lied
00:25:35.340
that no one lost their plan because of obamacare that biden care he actually said biden care that
00:25:41.860
that's not going to be medicare for all light it is going to be i thought trump did a pretty good job
00:25:47.780
of defending himself and his plans um on that uh and was really good at showing the differences of the
00:25:54.620
two plans as well yeah i uh i had a hard time and stew you've worked with me long enough when he said
00:26:02.280
no one no one lost their plan oh i lost my mind i lost my mind because we did oh yeah we had the
00:26:08.720
best cadillac i mean it was rolls royce health insurance and it became so expensive and finally
00:26:17.460
the the health insurance company told me i was the only employer in the state of new york
00:26:22.980
that still carried that because it was so expensive for the employees and it killed me
00:26:28.180
but they priced it out so nobody else could go and finally the insurance company said
00:26:33.120
we can't we i mean we just can't do this that is a lie there are a lot of people that lost and
00:26:39.820
it was interesting because it when it came to covid joe biden was talking to these families that and and
00:26:47.740
i don't mean to diminish the the the horror for these families that have lost somebody especially
00:26:54.460
those who have been locked away in nursing homes and and have died without their children around
00:26:59.580
them when they when he was talking about 200 000 dead you're talking about a country that is 350
00:27:08.980
million people yes 220 000 dead horrible but 350 million they're not sitting around the table
00:27:20.760
with that missing person and the same thing with health care he was talking about 20 000 compared to
00:27:27.500
185 million the numbers just don't i just was biden actually speaking to a very small narrow audience
00:27:42.320
and does that work well i think that there are people who resonate with that message more than those
00:27:49.500
that are actually included in those numbers of course people hear 200 000 it is a big number if
00:27:55.200
one person died from coronavirus of course we would feel terribly and it would be absolutely tragic
00:27:59.780
like you said it's not to diminish the value of each of those lives but i do think that people on the
00:28:05.560
left in particular they hear that number they hear any number in relation to coronavirus and they think
00:28:10.920
the empathetic the compassionate thing to do is to say okay well in order to prevent another death we
00:28:16.540
really need to lock everything down or else you're not empathetic and you don't care about the value
00:28:20.640
of those lives and so i don't know if it reached a wide audience the things that he was saying but
00:28:25.700
even the people who you know they uh they haven't been affected by coronavirus they won't be affected by
00:28:32.280
this health care plan they still feel that voting for joe biden is caring for the people who are affected
00:28:39.880
by what they see as the consequence of trump's incompetence which is people getting kicked off health
00:28:45.900
insurance or being uninsured and people dying by coronavirus of course we think that reasoning is misguided
00:28:52.160
but um he probably did appeal to the people who exclusively watch msnbc so ali um what does your gut say i mean
00:29:02.780
we are a week from next tuesday away from and and i've always hated when people on tv and radio say
00:29:11.060
that's the most important election shut up they've been saying that every year since i've been born
00:29:16.020
but this time we are looking at a very different choice and a very different direction um and one is
00:29:25.620
freedom and the way the republic and the constitution have always outlined it and then something new
00:29:33.460
that sounds an awful lot like marxism um yeah what's your gut say on what americans are going to
00:29:40.020
do a week from tuesday you know it's so hard to say and it seems like things are changing every day if
00:29:47.100
you had asked me two weeks ago someone did ask me two weeks ago and i said my feeling is that biden is
00:29:51.860
going to win but also don't ask me because i thought hillary was going to win i'm not feeling that
00:29:55.840
way anymore and again this is just a feeling i'm not a prophetess and i don't know if the polls agree
00:30:01.760
with me certainly but it feels like the race is getting tighter it feels like the arguments for
00:30:06.560
joe biden are getting weaker i think that his incompetence and possible corruption is coming to
00:30:12.080
the forefront uh despite the efforts of big tech and much of the mainstream media especially places
00:30:17.980
like npr and i think people are starting to think okay well maybe it's not such an easy choice as
00:30:25.720
the mainstream media would like us to think um and i think joe biden's saying tonight that he wants to
00:30:31.460
get rid basically of the oil industry and trump said okay pay attention texas oklahoma pennsylvania
00:30:37.000
i actually think that could possibly make a difference right now i think it's going to be a
00:30:42.180
close close race closer than i thought two weeks ago i'm not willing to make an absolute prediction
00:30:49.540
though i think we're all that way we're all hoping somebody else will say something we want to hear
00:30:55.300
and be able to back it up but ali thank you so much um thank you ali best stuckey she is um
00:31:01.940
uh the host of relatable uh on blaze tv we have steve dace coming up in just a second
00:31:08.600
i told you stew on your show before we started that i talked to somebody who has access to state polling
00:31:17.500
um and said that it's donald trump is in a better position than you're you're seeing um and he's
00:31:27.280
actually slightly ahead in some of the uh states that show him uh slightly behind in these swing states
00:31:37.620
pennsylvania for one he said i'm actually after seeing these and he said this is a pollster that
00:31:45.360
got it right uh last time he said i actually feel better he said the only state i'm really worried
00:31:52.220
about is texas really yeah i mean you know look i think if texas goes to the democrats donald trump's
00:32:01.220
already lost right like a donald texas is not going to make the difference in this election it's a much
00:32:06.400
must win of course for donald trump um but it's incredibly unlikely i think that that would be the
00:32:12.040
difference it would be a situation where we have a a very wide gap and texas falls after pennsylvania
00:32:19.480
and florida and arizona and north carolina have already fallen um but you know you never know
00:32:23.800
these some of these sometimes the weirdest things happen and you know the demographics of texas are
00:32:28.360
changing um it's interesting to watch him as opposed to that first debate where like those are two shades
00:32:35.160
of the same person right like sometimes you see with politicians they get in trouble because they
00:32:41.260
try to be something they're not marco rubio trying to be mr slapstick insult comic for one for one
00:32:46.160
debate inexplicably last time he was the insult he was the insult comic dog and it just didn't worry
00:32:51.540
it wasn't authentic at all this was authentically trump these i think actually both of those debates
00:32:56.760
were authentically trump the one he had tonight if that was trump all the time i think he's in a much
00:33:03.640
much better position and that's that's a winning donald trump i thought he presented tonight if
00:33:07.840
donald trump behaves this way and he is seen uh a lot uh he if he's this way all the way through the
00:33:17.940
election he's going to be um he he's going to be a real contender thinks things will change it's late
00:33:25.720
though i mean it's late i mean i think you know i think 49 million people have already voted yeah i think
00:33:31.060
this will help you know narrow the race a little bit i think this i think he he showed he he made
00:33:37.720
some people who were uncomfortable voting for him after watching that last debate feel okay about it
00:33:44.180
this time and that was a big part of his goal coming into this tonight but it's very late we're
00:33:49.660
within two weeks of this election and will it be enough i don't know but i think he did what he he had
00:33:55.100
to do tonight to give himself a chance to win this thing i think if he blew this tonight he was toast
00:33:59.740
and i don't he i thought he performed well i thought he was better than biden uh and you know
00:34:05.320
i think he did he did himself some favors tonight i i am um i i i feel compelled to point out did you
00:34:14.400
vote for donald trump last time i did not you did not i feel compelled to point out the rest of this
00:34:19.920
broadcast you're talking to glenn beck who was not just not voting for him was dead set against him
00:34:28.260
stew right you didn't vote for him did you you didn't vote uh steve dace didn't vote he's coming
00:34:34.960
up in a minute and dave rubin did you vote for donald trump the first time around dave
00:34:41.720
vote for donald trump i voted for gary johnson and and glenn let me throw in a couple other people
00:34:48.380
since you're mentioning it ben shapiro did not vote for donald trump he's voting for donald trump
00:34:52.740
this time uh uh james lindsey who i think you know him oh he was on my show this morning
00:34:58.380
oh well well there you go i mean he has now just in the last basically two days said that he's going
00:35:04.160
to support donald trump uh tim pool who is uh an actual journalist one of the few people that i can
00:35:10.580
call a journalist without going like this and who has a huge following online he is going to vote for
00:35:15.040
donald trump didn't last time and and what about uh our other guy our other blaze guy crowder i
00:35:19.420
don't think crowder voted for trump last time did he i don't know maybe he didn't vote or yeah
00:35:23.460
i'm not totally sure yeah anything he certainly wasn't as gung-ho as he is right now right and and
00:35:28.640
what's amazing is every single one of us we came to our own decision in our own way in our own time
00:35:38.100
all different times and uh we i mean we can't be alone because we're not i don't think anybody in
00:35:45.900
that crew is holding their nose to vote for donald trump i i'm there i am there you oh i'm i'm there
00:35:54.160
man i mean i'm shocked that this is what i'm telling you honestly like i i'm shocked that i'm there but i
00:36:00.500
am really really there i think the confluence of big tech and mainstream media and the absolute
00:36:08.380
corruption of the democratic party and the future of the left which is a deep dark socialist future
00:36:14.720
you add all of those things up and if that is going to put me in the camp with the the guy that's orange
00:36:20.600
with the crazy hair who for some reason is the last guy guarding the gate he's the last guy keeping
00:36:27.400
the barbarians out i refuse to be one of the people one of the elites who know who knows he's
00:36:33.900
doing the right thing but instead of backing him is saying ha ha look at the guy guarding the gate
00:36:38.900
you know he's got i don't like the way he talks or or he uses uh ketchup when he eats steak and that's
00:36:45.960
what these guys are doing he's taking critical race theory out of the universities he flipped title
00:36:50.960
nine he's trying to get the country reopened he's doing the things that that good liberals are
00:36:56.660
supposed to want and those that's the group of people that i think is the most undecided right
00:37:00.820
now you know the the former me type people let's say and and i think i just can't stand by and and
00:37:07.440
not support the guy that that's doing it even if i have some reservations about him at some level he's
00:37:12.200
a politician of course i have some reservations about him so tell me um as a a classic liberal uh somebody
00:37:21.320
that understands freedom and also was you know with the young turks for a while so you were
00:37:27.400
why do you keep reminding me of that i don't know i mean it never ends with you people remind me that
00:37:33.040
i called barack obama a racist which i contend at this point um so uh uh talk to talk to me about how
00:37:44.600
uh donald trump and joe biden appealed or didn't appeal in tonight's debate to that person yeah so
00:37:54.760
i was i was doing my own live stream but i did catch you guys for a couple minutes there before
00:37:58.360
i jumped on and and i agree with what you were saying i heard stew particularly i agree with
00:38:03.240
this idea that trump was presidential tonight he really was presidential tonight and i think that
00:38:09.240
that is the thing that he needed to get across to those people the people that are kind of seeing
00:38:14.800
him as oh he's the last guy that's going to stand up against big tech against mainstream media all the
00:38:19.500
things that i just said well the part that that they worry about the most is can this guy be sort
00:38:25.600
of a decent human being can he can he be presidential can he not you know bicker about every little thing
00:38:33.340
and constantly you know say oh the media is out to get me and the rest of it well i think he did that
00:38:37.660
quite effectively tonight really well now as far as i as far as it being too late which i heard you
00:38:43.300
guys talking about i actually think the timing is just right you know you want to you want to peak
00:38:47.780
and look your best in the in the week let's say before the election well we're about 10 11 days out
00:38:52.620
right now and we know there'll still be more surprises and who knows what's going to happen with
00:38:56.760
hunter in the laptop but i think glenn last time we spoke that you know the the idea that i'm focused
00:39:01.160
on more than anything else right now is that we are in a reality war and depending on what news channel
00:39:06.760
you watch you are gonna you're gonna hear one version of the stories about hunter and the and
00:39:12.300
all of that stuff and maybe you'll care about it and maybe you won't but if you watch another channel
00:39:16.340
they'll either ignore it or tell it a totally different way and that to me is a much bigger
00:39:21.160
problem than our political problems we've got a we've got a political battle going on we've got a
00:39:25.940
cultural battle but both of those are underneath the reality war and and i think that's the part
00:39:32.440
why it's so hard to trust the polls or trust the mainstream media or the rest of it because
00:39:37.180
we're all stuck in the even those of us that do this for a living we're stuck in the reality war
00:39:41.940
ourselves well that's what you know we i talked to james lindsey today a fascinating i just love the
00:39:48.160
guy he's honest you know he really he thinks things through and even if he doesn't like it if he feels
00:39:54.840
that's the right thing he goes for it and i i respect those kind of people all the time both left and
00:40:00.140
right um can i tell you something can i tell you something quick about james yeah so so i i've
00:40:04.760
known james for a couple years he's been on my show a few times and we've privately over the past few
00:40:09.180
months i've basically been i don't know that he's going to be thrilled that i'm saying this but i
00:40:12.420
think he'll be okay i've basically privately been saying to him james you know the end conclusion for
00:40:17.220
a guy like you is if you've devoted your life to to fighting identity politics to fighting critical
00:40:23.860
race theory well then you have to back the guy who's doing it and he really sort of had to get
00:40:29.260
dragged to this conclusion but i think what you just said there is on point he took it to to its
00:40:35.200
end conclusion and and if you want people to truly live free and you don't want us all to have jobs
00:40:41.520
because of quotas racial and sexual and gender quotas well then you have to vote for the guy who's
00:40:47.980
fighting it so a guy who's a who's a liberal at heart probably more lefty than me i'm sure more lefty
00:40:54.300
than me at this point yeah uh he took it to the end conclusion and the end conclusion was i have to
00:40:59.120
support trump i think that's pretty fascinating he went from never trump to um uh to i don't like
00:41:07.460
either of them to um never biden to now pro-trump i mean he went the full the full circle and uh fought
00:41:19.100
and i think um one of the things that really pushed him over the edge was the the silencing of
00:41:26.900
media organizations uh like the post like the blaze like you like us um that really bothered him
00:41:35.800
do you think that that is something that will play to a lot of people who are um still maybe undecided
00:41:43.940
did the did the media cross the rubicon on that with their own arrogance of thinking that they
00:41:53.280
can just tell people what's important what's not what's true and what's not and get away with it
00:42:00.360
today my my gut feeling on this is yes that we don't even realize the depths to how deep their loss
00:42:09.360
of influence actually is that if it wasn't for a bunch of us and we sort of have to do it at some
00:42:14.940
level if it wasn't for a bunch of us talking about how bad cnn is nobody would cnn is nobody would know
00:42:19.860
cnn was on anymore uh that that is the that's the strange game that we're all sort of stuck in because
00:42:25.220
we because mainstream exists and we want to correct its errors and then in a weird way we shine a light
00:42:30.480
on mainstream while in many ways we are getting more views we are getting more influence and have far
00:42:36.460
more trust and and usually in most cases and i always say this i'm not a journalist but i think
00:42:40.780
in most cases we're doing a better job at at telling people the truth or at least something that is in
00:42:47.500
the in the realm of the truth at least an honest attempt to tell the truth exactly exactly that that's
00:42:56.120
what it is i can't sit here and tell you that i'm right about exactly everything but i'm giving you
00:43:00.840
my darndest take that that is honest so that hopefully you can you can form your own opinions
00:43:06.340
about these things i mean the subtitle of my book was thinking for yourself right i mean think for
00:43:10.820
yourself in in the age of unreason that that's what we're in right now so i think mainstream media has
00:43:15.820
lost it to a degree that we're not going to understand till after the election that being said
00:43:20.060
for as confident as i am at the moment and and while i did think trump did a nice job tonight
00:43:24.940
um you know this machine you've been fighting this machine for longer than i have glenn and you know
00:43:29.880
it can it can transform and recalibrate itself and do all sorts of crazy twists and turns over the
00:43:36.400
next 10 days and what that means i don't know um but if i can quickly make a star wars reference here
00:43:42.660
because i can always i can always get one in there somehow you know palpatine in the prequels what did
00:43:46.920
he do he started a war right he started a war between the republic and the separatists and he
00:43:51.400
controlled both sides and finally when he had enough power he shut down the separatists right he shut down
00:43:56.860
the droid army and then he ruled everything and i sense that if biden wins that in effect why wouldn't
00:44:02.820
at that point big tech just take us all out there'll be nothing any of us can do because they'll have the
00:44:08.460
power of tech and the power of government trump is the last thing that stands in between those two
00:44:13.420
things i will tell you dave i've been i've been saying this since oh man 2005 i've been saying warning
00:44:21.500
warning warning warning and and everybody was telling me you know i'm not afraid and i just
00:44:26.580
want to give a star wars reference myself oh you will be you will be uh thanks i appreciate it dave
00:44:35.880
dave rubin uh you can find his uh program online his book is uh don't burn this book and you can also
00:44:44.180
find his show right here on blaze tv let me let me just say this before we go to a guy who really
00:44:51.580
knows the numbers and has been on the inside of campaigns for a long time before we go there
00:44:58.160
um you see how media is is being squashed any voices that disagree with uh the lies that are going
00:45:11.140
on right now it is amazing um if if these were lies and we could show i mean we've been skeptical
00:45:18.400
on the the laptop even but there's one thing about being skeptical and doing your own homework and
00:45:25.340
following it through and another of just being blind to the truth and lying about it because you
00:45:32.280
want your side to win that's what's happening in the media we had um we had the um editor of the
00:45:39.480
new york post on today he talked about that on radio and uh and we also went into the story that
00:45:46.640
the post broke that they are hiring chinese um uh digital experts people who design algorithms
00:45:55.420
that they have what was it eight or twelve people from on h1v h1b visas at facebook designing
00:46:04.860
the hate speech uh algorithms and i don't know if they're bringing their knowledge from that
00:46:12.480
you know super state that death star of china over here or worse is facebook teaching china
00:46:22.620
how to do it even better over there there is there is unbelievable power in the truth
00:46:30.120
and there is also uh real strength in numbers we need your help we need your help to to bring the
00:46:40.760
truth in spite of the media and big techs uh all of their their efforts to uh censor stories
00:46:49.380
it's big tech after big tech after big tech they're all in the same boat
00:46:54.860
and when this election happens uh depending on how it goes uh if there is any kind of trouble
00:47:03.380
they are going to censor and uh throttle us and we won't be able to communicate on social media

00:48:42.620
i want to ask you as a guy who watches these things closely usually from inside of a campaign
00:48:50.220
how did the president do how did joe biden come off and will any of this make a difference at this
00:48:59.160
point steve i think it'll make it i think it's going to make a big difference glenn i think the
00:49:04.740
president clearly came into the debate with the momentum um i think that the the momentum has
00:49:10.680
shifted quite a bit in the couple of weeks uh since we last had the two of them on stage and since he
00:49:16.080
got out of the hospital and since the confirmation of amy coney barrett and the conversation has gone
00:49:20.840
away from his persona at the debate and back to issues and i think there were a couple of moments
00:49:25.980
here tonight that reverberate quite a bit i i was i saw a gop consultant on twitter uh who's not very
00:49:31.800
pro trump and and she said well trump won tonight decisively but given how many people are voting
00:49:36.860
early i don't think it'll make a difference well about 40 million people have voted early
00:49:40.560
that's 29 of the 2016 electorate so if we don't add a single voter from 2016 over 70 of this electorate
00:49:49.280
hasn't voted yet so you can bet your sweet bippy this is going to make a difference in two moments i think
00:49:53.820
we'll do that glenn the first was early on both sides were very clear and with clarity about their
00:49:59.620
visions on lockdowns and how to proceed to the future they gave the american people a very stark
00:50:04.880
choice there to go by but then what happened at the end you know um in 1976 we had a very close
00:50:11.160
election uh and gerald ford a lot of people think he lost because of a gap that he had in one debate
00:50:15.960
against jimmy carter where he was insistent that poland was not a communist country that made him look
00:50:20.620
in disarray confused etc joe biden voluntarily unwittingly walking into i'm going to end
00:50:27.860
modernity i'm going to i'm going to shut down the oil industry i think if if i've got friends of mine
00:50:34.320
on the trump campaign listen to what i'm about to say if you guys don't park right here for the next 12
00:50:39.660
days and you guys don't replay this like it's freaking stairway to heaven man or free bird for the
00:50:45.700
next 12 days you're all fired and you never should work in gop political circles ever again
00:50:51.100
because biden just handed you 270 electoral college votes with that soundbite i will tell you that not
00:50:56.360
only did he say he was going to end uh oil he also finally said what the line was on fracking and that is
00:51:05.680
not on federal land well every oil man everybody that i know that's in that business
00:51:13.100
that that's what they want they want the federal license because that is vast amounts of the west
00:51:22.120
when you go west of the mississippi there's some states that the the private land is about 30 percent
00:51:31.340
everything else is owned by the government yeah i i was shocked sitting here at the end i was i was
00:51:38.100
formulating my thoughts at the end and i thought for the most part both candidates probably did what
00:51:43.460
they wanted to do for the most part there was a moment in the middle where i thought oh joe was
00:51:47.240
coming on he was starting to slip the dementia was coming in when the conversation flipped to health
00:51:52.100
care that seemed to re-energize him but then he got really cranky and angry uh in the final third but i
00:51:58.160
thought hey he got out of this relatively unstated i mean it was really about trump being poised and
00:52:03.120
composed so he can maintain his momentum and not make himself and his antics the day after story
00:52:08.520
like what happened before but when biden stepped into this and he just he literally just took out
00:52:13.560
a banana ate it dropped the peel and slipped on it all voluntarily trump didn't do anything
00:52:18.220
and trump looked at him and said really now trump's a great salesman he recognizes an opportunity when
00:52:22.980
he sees it so he fully exploited it but i think that is a massive gap from the biden campaign it's what
00:52:28.860
we all know leftists really think they just don't typically have to say it glenn because the media
00:52:33.240
will cover for them if they just lie and then do it after they get elected for him to just say this
00:52:38.320
preemptively up front i think you know it has the chance to be a decisive mistake in this campaign
00:52:44.260
one last question steve as you you know it's one thing because we we look at things differently than
00:52:54.620
the left does in america and democrats do and they just won't talk about joe biden's um slippage
00:53:03.720
but as i watched as i watched him today i looked at the clock i think it was 34 minutes into it
00:53:11.720
is when i thought oh he's he's losing gas he is he's starting to um and he was getting confused
00:53:19.280
and it got worse as the night continued do you think anybody on the left and democrats
00:53:26.500
watched him last night or tonight and said i i i he's he's not got enough gas in the tank
00:53:36.740
to do that job do i think there are democrats who think this yes people that are to the left of us
00:53:45.060
yes do i think there are people on the left who think this no uh they are hostages to their
00:53:51.060
ideology he's a trojan horse they're just they're just hoping to get him past the city gate uh so
00:53:56.800
that we open the door let them in they come out and they're the ones actually running the country
00:54:00.560
uh so i think on the on the left no and i think that's actually his dementia is an attraction yeah
00:54:07.820
because it just goes to show that they can roll him once they're in the white house so i think there
00:54:11.700
are democrats that are concerned sure i um i i think the same thing about this you know this
00:54:19.240
corruption scandal if joe biden wins um what a win for the left to say you know this corruption
00:54:27.940
scandal is true and we should get him out of here and all of a sudden you know you've got kamala as
00:54:35.160
your president um and they look like they're you know champions of fighting corruption it's a it's an
00:54:42.400
interesting it's going to be an interesting few months uh ahead of us steve thank you appreciate it
00:54:50.580
you bet we'll see on the radio tomorrow okay on tomorrow's radio program begins at 9 a.m eastern
00:54:57.700
6 pacific um we have bill o'reilly who else do we have megan kelly bill o'reilly uh gavin mcginnis is
00:55:07.000
going to be on with us uh anxious to talk to him because he is the guy who kind of started the proud
00:55:13.100
boys as a joke uh and now iran and russia use the proud boys and directly targeted democrats yeah and
00:55:23.900
if you remember last time that there was a big moment in the debate when when biden said uh you
00:55:28.120
know disavow the proud boys because of charlottesville if you go back and look at what the proud boys did
00:55:33.720
with charlottesville gavin himself said he didn't want to go because he didn't want to be associated
00:55:38.500
with white supremacists right it's like the exact opposite story as joe biden was telling which is
00:55:43.980
common common occurrence all right we will uh see you tomorrow thank you so much for watching the
00:55:50.080
