The Glenn Beck Program - Final 2020 Presidential Debate： Special Coverage

00:00:00.000 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 0.51

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 0.69

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 0.98

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 1.00

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 0.73

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 0.97

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

00:48:42.620 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 1.00

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

00:55:07.000 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
