The Glenn Beck Program - Stupidity and Hysteria Abound

00:00:00.000 The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment. This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:00:08.920 It's Pat and Stu for Glenn on the Glenn Beck Program. 888-727-BECK.

00:00:14.340 Apparently, there's a jumbled process for replacing a governor who just stepped down in Puerto Rico.

00:00:21.320 Nobody understands this system. There's just no way to tell what happens from here on.

00:00:24.500 No, no. I think they just pick randomly straws, I guess, from the citizens.

00:00:28.580 This is a good system.

00:00:30.360 Because remember, they had all these protests in Puerto Rico?

00:00:32.660 Yeah.

00:00:33.320 And the governor got pressured. He decided he's going to step down.

00:00:38.240 And the day he's going to step down is today, I think, at 5 p.m.

00:00:42.220 So who's going to replace him?

00:00:44.640 You'd think by now...

00:00:45.820 Like a lieutenant governor.

00:00:47.060 Right. There you go, right?

00:00:48.500 You'd think by now you'd have an answer to that.

00:00:51.600 This would be a time in which you'd think you'd have identified who is going to be the next governor.

00:00:57.880 And they have not yet.

00:00:59.300 They have not. They don't know who it is.

00:01:00.920 It's kind of interesting.

00:01:02.740 Yeah.

00:01:03.420 It's weird because it's just been one of these situations that they do have a system to replace the governor if he were to step down.

00:01:11.980 But it's very...

00:01:13.340 Because of the way it's happened, it's been convoluted.

00:01:16.420 Long story...

00:01:16.880 To put it in American president terms so we can kind of just all understand, because I have no idea who any of the people are in the actual intrigue here.

00:01:25.120 But let's just say Donald Trump got into a scandal.

00:01:28.300 And he decided...

00:01:30.680 He got all these protests and decided he was going to step down.

00:01:33.940 So Donald Trump's going to step down.

00:01:35.240 Who's the president?

00:01:36.360 Mike Pence.

00:01:37.180 Right?

00:01:38.060 Unfortunately, Mike Pence was also wrapped up in the scandal and has already stepped down.

00:01:41.760 So that's just an empty slot.

00:01:43.860 Okay.

00:01:44.080 So the next person would go to Pelosi, right?

00:01:47.460 The Speaker of the House.

00:01:48.400 Yep.

00:01:48.760 So in theory, she would be in line to be president.

00:01:52.140 Now, of course, Trump would know this.

00:01:54.400 So at the last minute, he's named a replacement essentially for his vice president.

00:01:59.700 And he, whoever the vice president equivalent would be, would step in to the presidency.

00:02:07.040 The issue is in their system, you have to confirm what is essentially the vice president.

00:02:10.980 So there's going to be, I guess, a vote today to figure out whether they confirm this person.

00:02:16.220 If they confirm him, he'll become governor.

00:02:18.100 If not, the other person will become...

00:02:19.440 So it would be like Pence or Pelosi.

00:02:21.580 Imagine being in a place where you're like, all right, is it going to...

00:02:25.260 At the end of the day, it's either going to be, let's say he named Tom Cotton to be his replacement VP.

00:02:32.260 It's like some hardcore Trump supporter or Nancy Pelosi.

00:02:36.600 One of the two.

00:02:38.080 That's crazy.

00:02:38.960 That's crazy.

00:02:39.580 Yeah.

00:02:40.200 That's not a good system.

00:02:41.540 Also, they just elected a new prime minister in Britain.

00:02:44.440 Right.

00:02:44.620 And we've talked about this too.

00:02:45.680 It's an inconceivable system.

00:02:48.980 Don't understand the parliamentary thing.

00:02:51.500 It doesn't make any sense.

00:02:52.700 Nobody understands it.

00:02:53.680 There's just no way to tell what's...

00:02:54.700 It's like the metric system.

00:02:55.740 There's just no way to tell what's going on.

00:02:57.740 Nobody knows.

00:02:58.180 You know, Pat, that there is a way to tell with the metric system.

00:03:00.400 There's no way to tell.

00:03:02.360 Like, is 50 kilometers five inches or is it eight million miles?

00:03:08.620 Nobody knows.

00:03:09.320 There's no way to tell.

00:03:10.180 There is no way, Stu.

00:03:11.660 There are a lot of people who know.

00:03:13.080 They think they do.

00:03:14.300 They're wrong.

00:03:15.100 Okay.

00:03:15.360 They're just wrong.

00:03:16.340 And that's why we have the great system we do here.

00:03:19.320 But Boris Johnson has now suffered his first big defeat as prime minister after losing the

00:03:25.680 Breakin and Radnashire by election.

00:03:28.820 Oh, how many times have we talked about that?

00:03:30.220 If you lose the Breakin and Radnashire...

00:03:32.640 You can't lose that one.

00:03:33.340 You can't.

00:03:33.660 That's the one you can't lose.

00:03:34.980 So now it cut his working House of Commons majority to just one.

00:03:39.040 So if you lose that majority, do you lose the office as well?

00:03:43.480 Nobody knows.

00:03:44.580 No one knows.

00:03:45.180 No one knows.

00:03:45.680 There's no way to tell.

00:03:46.760 I think there's another election.

00:03:48.260 I think...

00:03:48.760 He just had one, which was won by Boris Johnson.

00:03:52.540 And if he loses his majority, are they going to have another one?

00:03:56.260 I think they would go to whatever party takes control, right?

00:03:59.500 And then that party...

00:04:00.040 What if it's tied?

00:04:01.560 I don't know.

00:04:02.400 No one knows.

00:04:03.040 No, but nobody knows.

00:04:03.800 No one could ever know.

00:04:05.940 It is fascinating.

00:04:07.920 I feel like...

00:04:08.420 It's so weird.

00:04:09.220 There's this thing that goes on around the world, which is like...

00:04:12.740 The United States of America starts this experiment in self-rule.

00:04:19.080 Man can rule themselves.

00:04:20.440 And we invent this whole...

00:04:22.780 I mean, we further it, but invent essentially a real system where the free market and capitalism

00:04:28.360 and constitutional republic with elements of democracy involved.

00:04:34.500 And we build this great system.

00:04:37.120 And everyone sits back and was like, whoa, this is fantastic.

00:04:40.980 Look at how great they're doing.

00:04:42.340 We should take what they're doing and really screw it up.

00:04:44.540 And that'll work for us.

00:04:45.760 And they've done it over and over and over again.

00:04:47.540 All over the world.

00:04:48.460 There's so many places that replicate Britain's system.

00:04:51.360 I know.

00:04:51.640 It's like, now Britain, look, we like them.

00:04:54.800 They're a close ally.

00:04:56.720 We are closest.

00:04:57.900 But we've done a little better.

00:05:00.160 We've just done a little better.

00:05:02.040 No offense to any Brits out there.

00:05:04.160 In a much shorter time.

00:05:04.940 In a much shorter time.

00:05:06.280 The same thing all across the world.

00:05:08.180 People are like, yeah, you know, we could just replicate essentially their constitution.

00:05:12.440 I mean, it's out there.

00:05:13.260 They've released it.

00:05:14.380 It's not like the 24 herbs and spices.

00:05:17.780 It's like, we're telling you what it is.

00:05:20.240 It's not the secret sauce.

00:05:21.920 There's only 11 herbs and spices.

00:05:23.980 Oh.

00:05:24.340 I don't know why you're trying to complicate the KFC spice thing.

00:05:27.920 It's only 11?

00:05:28.280 It's only 11.

00:05:29.160 Oh, it's nothing.

00:05:30.100 Yeah.

00:05:31.440 What's 24?

00:05:32.180 It's not that difficult.

00:05:32.840 Is it 24 flavors?

00:05:35.100 What am I thinking of?

00:05:35.740 Baskin-Robbins?

00:05:36.360 Baskin-Robbins 31.

00:05:37.580 31.

00:05:37.960 What am I talking about?

00:05:38.900 Wonderful flavors.

00:05:38.980 Okay.

00:05:39.160 Well, there's 24 of something that is protected on knowledge.

00:05:42.220 And that was what that reference was supposed to be.

00:05:44.260 Okay.

00:05:45.000 The point is that we are telling you exactly.

00:05:47.140 We're giving you the blueprint.

00:05:48.640 Here's how to make a country that's going to be pretty successful.

00:05:51.620 Literally.

00:05:52.040 Has anyone?

00:05:52.840 I don't think there's been anyone who has just directly replicated what we have here.

00:05:57.300 I know.

00:05:57.580 I can't think of anybody.

00:05:59.340 Did Liberia do it?

00:06:00.640 Liberia, I was going to say.

00:06:01.260 The capital of Liberia is Monrovia.

00:06:04.180 It's named after James Monroe.

00:06:06.000 Right.

00:06:06.140 And even they can't think of it.

00:06:07.680 Just copy it.

00:06:08.960 Literally take a copying machine to it.

00:06:10.720 You can just press print.

00:06:11.860 Take the thing out.

00:06:13.080 Cross out United States.

00:06:14.320 Put in Liberia.

00:06:15.520 Like, that is the way you should go.

00:06:17.440 And no one will do it.

00:06:18.600 No.

00:06:19.040 It is.

00:06:19.320 Now, look.

00:06:19.660 You look at our system.

00:06:20.600 At times, it feels a tad dysfunctional.

00:06:23.640 But are we...

00:06:24.640 Are we doing an election every three weeks?

00:06:26.500 No.

00:06:27.900 No.

00:06:28.300 We're not.

00:06:29.000 At least, generally speaking, when people go into office, they stay in office until either

00:06:33.280 they want to go or there's a new election.

00:06:35.520 Every once in a very long while, you got a, you know, Rod Bogdoyevich or whatever who gets

00:06:40.260 thrown out of office.

00:06:41.100 But it's pretty darn rare.

00:06:42.680 Mm-hmm.

00:06:43.240 You know?

00:06:43.620 As much as a lot of the Democrats want to throw Trump out of office, guess what?

00:06:46.940 You can do it in November of next year.

00:06:49.700 Okay?

00:06:50.200 That's basically what's happening here.

00:06:52.180 And everyone else is like, oh, I don't know.

00:06:53.340 But what if we...

00:06:54.780 I don't know.

00:06:55.360 What if we roll dice to see who the next president is?

00:06:58.100 What if everything depends on Brecken and Radnashire?

00:07:01.220 That's what I always thought.

00:07:03.620 Brecken and...

00:07:04.460 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:07:08.320 Warning.

00:07:09.000 If you're buried in debt you can't afford, do not let the credit card companies make you

00:07:15.640 Because you don't.

00:07:17.060 What the credit card companies don't want you to know is that there's actually a way

00:07:20.960 to get debt-free without paying off your entire debt.

00:07:23.960 Or going bankrupt.

00:07:25.880 If you have $10,000 or more in credit card debt, you now have the right to let us settle

00:08:19.080 Pat and Stu, for Glenn on the Glenn Beck Program, 888-727-BECK.

00:08:23.580 Now, apparently, we have found a glitch in our system, haven't we?

00:08:28.980 A real violation.

00:08:30.080 Just this week, a real violation, and it's got to be corrected.

00:08:36.240 There are constitutional standards we must adhere to, and you cannot violate those.

00:08:41.560 There are certain laws.

00:08:43.320 There are certain things that rise to a level that goes beyond politics.

00:08:49.340 It goes to a level of just like almost religious violation, heresy.

00:08:58.240 I'm talking about the fact that Democrats are criticizing Barack Obama's presidency.

00:09:02.840 Oh, wow.

00:09:03.300 That's not okay.

00:09:04.560 No, it is not.

00:09:05.180 It is not okay.

00:09:07.600 We may have a system that makes a lot of sense, but you do not step in and criticize anything

00:09:12.860 that occurred in the Obama presidency.

00:09:14.540 How dare you?

00:09:15.040 You don't do that.

00:09:15.540 How dare you?

00:09:16.520 Stay away from Barack, Democrats now seething over the criticism of Obama.

00:09:22.000 Party officials are frustrated that the former president's record was collateral damage in

00:09:26.100 the debate on the attacks on Joe Biden.

00:09:28.940 Joe Biden is fair game.

00:09:31.000 Barack Obama is not.

00:09:34.140 Lots of allies out on record here.

00:09:36.620 Stay away from Barack Obama, a well-known Democratic lobbyist who worked on Kerry's campaign.

00:09:42.160 I don't know why you would attack Barack Obama or his record or any part of him.

00:09:45.680 No parts of him, Pat, can be.

00:09:47.720 Especially Michelle Obama's arms.

00:09:50.560 You definitely can attack them.

00:09:51.360 Oh, she's got beautiful arms.

00:09:51.980 You ever seen her arms?

00:09:52.720 They're beautiful arms.

00:09:53.300 Beautiful arms.

00:09:53.800 I've never seen arms like them.

00:09:54.820 Incredible.

00:09:55.080 Incredible arms.

00:09:55.860 She has two of them.

00:09:56.820 Yeah.

00:09:57.180 Yeah, she does.

00:09:57.840 Yeah.

00:09:58.320 Exactly two.

00:09:59.060 Not three.

00:09:59.640 They're amazing.

00:09:59.880 Not one.

00:10:00.500 They're perfect.

00:10:00.940 It's a perfect amount of arms.

00:10:01.960 Yeah.

00:10:02.340 You don't want too many arms.

00:10:03.320 You don't want too few arms.

00:10:04.920 You know, because you do have any arms.

00:10:06.120 And she has exactly the right amount.

00:10:07.080 Two.

00:10:07.680 Yeah.

00:10:08.000 Yeah.

00:10:08.520 Yes.

00:10:08.760 If you have eight, you're an octopus or a spider.

00:10:10.780 That would not be good.

00:10:15.680 And if you say something bad, if this Democratic debate devolves to where they start criticizing

00:10:19.820 her arms.

00:10:20.580 Oh, they'd never.

00:10:20.980 They would never do that.

00:10:22.080 They couldn't.

00:10:23.460 I hope not.

00:10:24.460 I will not stand for it if they do.

00:10:26.900 Republicans have already seized.

00:10:29.160 This is what the Republicans do, Pat.

00:10:30.900 When something happens, they seize on it.

00:10:33.060 They jump right on top and they just pile on.

00:10:36.780 Donald Trump Jr., President's eldest son, of course, tweeted Thursday morning how nice

00:10:41.800 it was to, quote, see Democrats finally go after Obama's failed policies.

00:10:45.360 Very aggressively, which is true.

00:10:47.380 I mean, they told us that Obamacare was the greatest thing in the world was going to solve

00:10:50.200 all of our problems.

00:10:51.120 And now it sucks.

00:10:51.940 Now it's terrible.

00:10:52.620 It's a failed health care system.

00:10:54.220 Bernie Sanders, in the first debate, said there is no one here who can defend the dysfunctionality

00:10:59.380 of the system.

00:11:00.640 This is your system.

00:11:02.000 Wow.

00:11:02.440 You passed it.

00:11:03.520 This isn't our system.

00:11:04.560 We weren't like, ah, you know what we should do is massively expand government to control

00:11:08.000 health care.

00:11:08.440 That was you.

00:11:09.440 You guys.

00:11:10.160 Did you vote for that, Bernie?

00:11:12.540 Pretty sure you did.

00:11:13.540 Yes.

00:11:14.880 The answer is yes.

00:11:15.720 He did.

00:11:16.820 Thursday night, the president echoed this theme.

00:11:21.260 The Democrats spent more time attacking Barack Obama than they did attacking me.

00:11:25.040 This morning, that's all the fake news was talking about.

00:11:28.080 I will say this.

00:11:28.840 It is interesting to see because the other candidates feel a level of desperation.

00:11:34.080 They saw in the first debate Kamala Harris pretty successfully go after Joe Biden.

00:11:40.860 He was leading by, he was at about 35, 36 percent before that.

00:11:45.620 He fell down to about 28 and then bounced back up to 32, 33.

00:11:49.980 So he regained about two thirds of what he lost.

00:11:52.940 And Harris, you know, had a nice jump after the debates, but then lost about a third of

00:11:59.160 what she gained.

00:12:00.640 And so I think what the other candidates said to themselves going into this is, look, we

00:12:05.060 can't hold back against Biden.

00:12:06.240 We just got to go for it.

00:12:07.300 And any means necessary.

00:12:09.220 So if it's criticizing Barack Obama because he deported too many people, because you know

00:12:12.760 how tough he was on the border, Pat.

00:12:14.440 Oh.

00:12:15.160 Or if it's about how Obamacare didn't cover enough people, despite the fact they all praised

00:12:20.300 it and said that it would.

00:12:21.860 I mean, yesterday, Pat, I'm listening to Joe Biden do a press conference.

00:12:24.700 I, I, I, the world, it's like at some point you almost wonder if it's worth talking about

00:12:32.540 these things, because what did we say the entire time Barack Obama was trying to pass

00:12:36.480 Obamacare?

00:12:37.500 We were saying over and over again, this is a hardcore left wing plan.

00:12:41.120 This is the biggest progressive X, uh, you know, uh, expansion of government healthcare

00:12:46.280 that we've seen since LBJ.

00:12:48.700 This is a, a massive deal.

00:12:51.360 He is changing the fabric of our economy.

00:12:54.680 One sixth of our economy.

00:12:56.120 This is a huge, huge deal.

00:12:57.980 And what do they say?

00:12:59.360 This is just common sense reform.

00:13:01.040 This basically came from the Heritage Foundation.

00:13:03.620 I almost, it's almost too conservative for us.

00:13:06.460 It's almost a libertarian plan.

00:13:09.240 I swear this is common sense measures.

00:13:12.180 Don't worry about it.

00:13:13.460 So now that Obamacare is a huge failure, um, and they're going after Obamacare, Joe Biden

00:13:21.340 in a press conference yesterday says there was, there was absolutely nothing conservative

00:13:26.220 or moderate about Obamacare.

00:13:29.360 This is one of the most progressive plans we've ever seen.

00:13:32.380 I was one of the most liberal senators in all the Senate the entire time I was there.

00:13:37.440 But Obamacare was a massively left wing push for healthcare reform.

00:13:45.000 And you know, who finally agrees with it?

00:13:47.180 Joe Biden.

00:13:48.100 You know, who finally agrees with it?

00:13:49.900 The Democrats, Barack Obama's administration.

00:13:52.380 Now that it's cool and it helps them to say that it's liberal, it's liberal.

00:13:56.300 Before, when it was just common sense and moderate.

00:13:59.160 No, they blamed it on Mitt Romney half the time.

00:14:01.440 On Mitt Romney.

00:14:02.220 Romney care.

00:14:03.140 Oh, look at, this is just what Massachusetts did and it's working for them.

00:14:06.360 Yeah.

00:14:06.680 And Mitt Romney loved it then.

00:14:08.120 Why doesn't he love it now?

00:14:09.140 Yeah.

00:14:09.660 And then Biden yesterday.

00:14:10.480 There was nothing moderate about what we did with Obamacare.

00:14:12.840 It's amazing.

00:14:13.680 It's just, why even.

00:14:15.120 It's really embarrassing is what it is.

00:14:16.460 Listen to anything that they say.

00:14:18.140 Yeah.

00:14:18.420 Crazy stuff.

00:14:19.820 More in 60 seconds.

00:14:20.900 Man, I'm really excited to welcome a brand new sponsor to the show, Tecovus.

00:14:31.100 I know how ridiculous a great pair of boots can cost.

00:15:35.720 Pat and Stu.

00:15:37.700 For Glenn on the Glenn Beck Program.

00:15:41.880 Did you see MSNBC, Pat?

00:15:43.620 I know you watch it every day.

00:15:44.580 Oh, man.

00:15:45.420 Pat's a huge fan.

00:15:46.360 I can't go a day without...

00:15:49.400 You know, to me, a day without MSNBC is like a day without orange juice or whatever.

00:15:54.220 Wait, sunshine.

00:15:55.420 A day without sun.

00:15:56.080 A moonlight?

00:15:58.000 Cloud cover.

00:15:58.920 That's what it is.

00:15:59.940 A day without cloud cover.

00:16:02.160 A day without MSNBC is like a day without cloud cover.

00:16:05.480 That's their new slogan, isn't it?

00:16:06.540 Yeah.

00:16:06.720 I think it is.

00:16:07.100 I did see that on the...

00:16:07.600 If it's not, it should be.

00:16:08.500 It should be.

00:16:08.920 So they were a little upset that Democrats went after Barack Obama this week.

00:16:14.380 Listen.

00:16:14.620 It was more like Gulliver's travels.

00:16:16.500 I mean, there was Vice President Biden tied down after rope after rope for his long political

00:16:22.940 career.

00:16:24.100 He had to defend every element of it going back, as Michael Bennett said, back 50 years

00:16:29.400 on issues like busing.

00:16:30.620 It was very hard for him to play defense.

00:16:33.140 He was 100% better or maybe 200% better than he was in the first debate.

00:16:37.900 He seemed to be aware he was in a debate, which was a start for him.

00:16:41.520 And I thought he was reciting a lot of stuff.

00:16:43.740 In fact, a lot of times when he got to the end of his time, it was like he ran out of his

00:16:48.220 recitation.

00:16:48.960 And the weirdest thing to me, which I'm having a hard time with, is, is it a smart strategy

00:16:54.680 to attack the Obama administration?

00:16:56.400 I mean, this is a Democratic president elected twice, I think he's the only Democrat we've

00:17:02.460 had, you know, with the margins he's had since FDR that did that, remains wildly popular

00:17:08.240 in the Democratic Party.

00:17:09.520 It was weird for me to watch about 40, almost 40 minutes of primarily attacks on the Obama

00:17:16.920 administration's policies.

00:17:18.160 It was odd.

00:17:19.280 It's almost as if the debate forgot who's president, because the attacks on Donald Trump, I don't

00:17:24.340 remember his name being mentioned that much.

00:17:26.400 And so it was odd for me for these candidates to debate changes in health care and their

00:17:31.200 different policies on immigration, as if Trump doesn't exist.

00:17:33.980 Yes, they were attacking the Obama administration.

00:17:36.320 I mean, they were.

00:17:37.040 They spent a lot of time doing that.

00:17:38.560 I think if you're a Democratic candidate for president and you spend, you're not making,

00:17:45.220 I think you're not making progress.

00:17:47.480 It is weird.

00:17:48.200 It's a weird approach.

00:17:49.520 And I guess there's, I don't know what you do, right?

00:17:51.600 If you're one of these opponents, what do you say you're going to do that's going to

00:17:54.740 be better than Biden if you say the Obama administration was great?

00:17:57.940 It's a tough sell.

00:17:59.960 But I mean, Barack Obama's approval rating, he's, among Democrats, there's a bunch of

00:18:05.180 polls here, 83 to 10 approval rating, 88 to 10, 83, 13, 90 to 7.

00:18:10.940 He's a very popular guy in this party.

00:18:13.120 In the Democratic Party.

00:18:13.620 In the Democratic Party, yeah.

00:18:14.720 He's not, you know, overall, he's, you know, he does well, overall, but not nearly that

00:18:20.820 well, obviously.

00:18:21.600 I mean, you know, that is a, these are really good numbers.

00:18:24.140 He's probably the most popular Democrat in America, with the maybe exception of Michelle

00:18:30.540 Obama, right?

00:18:31.580 His wife.

00:18:32.240 Yeah.

00:18:32.400 I mean, that couple is probably the, they're probably the two most popular people in the

00:18:36.580 entire Democratic Party.

00:18:37.740 Which was mentioned by fat lump Michael Moore, again.

00:18:40.820 He said it in a, in another interview, another interview, it's his, it's his, uh, new, his

00:18:46.920 name.

00:18:47.340 Is that on his business card?

00:18:48.540 Michael is now his middle name.

00:18:49.900 Fat Lump is, is first and second.

00:18:52.340 He's got two middle names.

00:18:53.240 So he's Fat Lump Michael Moore.

00:18:54.560 Fat Lump Michael Moore.

00:18:55.260 Okay.

00:18:55.540 Yeah.

00:18:56.360 Um, he said in a, that there's only one candidate up to the challenge to beat President Trump.

00:19:01.200 In fact, he thinks he'd crush, she'd crush President Trump.

00:19:05.520 Uh, he says that candidate is Michelle Obama.

00:19:08.240 Everybody watching this right now knows she's beloved and she would go in there and she

00:19:13.100 would beat him.

00:19:13.860 I think we have the audio of this.

00:19:14.840 You want to hear this?

00:19:15.340 Yeah.

00:19:15.580 Okay.

00:19:15.840 Here an audio of Michael Moore talking about Michelle Obama running for president.

00:19:19.440 Who's the street fighter that can crush Trump?

00:19:21.920 And frankly, I think there's a person that could do this.

00:19:25.620 If the election were held today, there is one person that would crush Trump and she hasn't

00:19:31.220 announced yet and her last name rhymes with Obama.

00:19:36.460 No, not that.

00:19:36.960 In fact, it is Obama.

00:19:39.180 Michelle Obama.

00:19:40.840 Everybody watching this right now knows she is a beloved American and she would go in

00:19:45.460 there and she would beat him.

00:19:47.640 She would beat him in the debates.

00:19:48.840 He wouldn't be able to bully her.

00:19:49.960 He wouldn't be able to nickname her and, and, and she has beloved all just go to C-SPAN

00:19:56.000 and follow her book tour across the country.

00:19:58.540 And she's playing 15,000 seat arenas in the Midwest.

00:20:02.260 They have to turn people away.

00:20:03.980 She takes the stage and she's so powerful and so good.

00:20:07.620 You just look at that and you think, of course she could win, but everyone's now saying, well,

00:20:13.240 of course she's not going to run.

00:20:14.720 Well, has anyone asked her?

00:20:15.940 Yes.

00:20:16.380 I think if she, if she were asked, look, if you watch the book tour, she's asked every

00:20:21.380 stop at it.

00:20:21.920 We have to come back to you.

00:20:22.940 You have to go back to the white house.

00:20:24.480 Your country needs you.

00:20:25.680 If asked to serve, I believe she would serve.

00:20:29.400 Well, except for you were asked to serve or I work, whatever our skillset is, wouldn't

00:20:34.040 we do that?

00:20:34.860 That's an, I can't take any more Michael Moore today.

00:20:37.080 Yeah.

00:20:37.520 And I mean, I think some of what he says is true though.

00:20:39.480 She's really popular for some reason.

00:20:41.100 I don't understand it, but she is.

00:20:42.680 Yeah.

00:20:42.720 I'm not, not a huge fan of myself.

00:20:43.860 I will say though, it's rare when Michael Moore agrees wholeheartedly with Bill O'Reilly.

00:20:49.260 This is exactly what Bill said about the election.

00:20:51.460 He said if they run a Michelle Obama, she's, she would win by a lot.

00:20:55.280 I think there's a good argument.

00:20:56.620 I'm afraid of that.

00:20:57.360 Yeah.

00:20:57.600 There's a good argument to be made there.

00:20:58.860 I mean, you have to, when you've never seen someone run for president, there's a big unknown

00:21:03.660 factor of how they actually react in that sort of pressure situation.

00:21:07.120 And she's obviously been in this world for a while, but she's never been the focus of it.

00:21:12.140 And when she was the focus of it in the first campaign, she did not do well.

00:21:15.920 If you remember, they pulled her off the campaign because she kept saying things like, I'm not

00:21:19.440 proud of my country until today.

00:21:21.700 So, right.

00:21:22.560 She doesn't exactly love America seemingly.

00:21:27.340 I mean, you know, like you said, she was proud for the first time when her husband was

00:21:32.020 nominated for president.

00:21:33.240 That was her first pride in this country.

00:21:36.080 You're listening to Glenn Beck.

00:21:39.660 Did you know, on average, it takes police 45 minutes to respond to a home security alarm.

00:21:45.360 That's almost an hour, but it's not because the police are lazy or anything like that.

00:21:50.060 It's because when a home security system is triggered, most of the time, it's a false

00:21:54.620 alarm and the call goes to the bottom of the 911 list.

00:21:58.140 But not if you have SimpliSafe home security.

00:22:01.920 SimpliSafe can visually confirm that a break-in is happening and they let the police know.

00:23:02.560 At your leisure.

00:23:03.280 Thank you.

00:23:03.920 By the way, Pat, this week I filled in on TV.

00:23:06.340 Yeah.

00:23:06.700 I'd love for you to go back and we went through all the, with some Ilhan Omar stuff this week.

00:23:10.460 Went through all the campaign stuff and the debates.

00:23:13.060 A lot of funny stuff.

00:23:13.860 So check it out if you go to the 5 p.m. show on Blaze TV.

00:23:17.360 Did you do a cake for Hamza bin Laden?

00:23:21.820 Bin Laden yesterday?

00:23:22.580 Yeah, well, we were reminded that we did an Al-Zar Kawi cake back when he died in like 2006.

00:23:29.020 And then I realized when Osama bin Laden died, I drank beer on the air.

00:23:34.880 Okay.

00:23:35.400 So this time.

00:23:36.180 So you had a little celebration for death day for Hamza bin Laden.

00:23:40.040 We did.

00:23:40.420 Hamza bin Laden.

00:23:41.120 And you can go back and watch that as well.

00:23:42.980 A bacon cake.

00:23:44.140 A bacon cake.

00:23:44.940 Yes, because we wanted to honor, truly honor him.

00:23:48.680 I'll bet that was tasty.

00:23:49.520 Oh, I mean, I will say it was raw bacon kind of strewn on the outside of it.

00:23:53.760 I did not eat it.

00:23:54.980 But, you know, it wasn't for me.

00:23:57.060 It was for him.

00:23:58.020 Yeah, right.

00:23:58.540 And he didn't eat it.

00:23:59.600 He didn't eat it either.

00:24:00.460 He can't eat anything right now.

00:24:01.480 It's too late.

00:24:02.380 We've lost him.

00:24:03.480 We lost him.

00:24:04.000 We've lost Hamza.

00:24:05.340 But we celebrated that one a little bit.

00:24:07.500 If you go to blazetv.com, use the promo code GLEN20.

00:24:10.820 You can get not only the whole week of shows with me, but also Glenn's.

00:24:13.680 Are you saying you're happy he's dead?

00:24:16.760 Yes.

00:24:17.140 Yes.

00:24:17.820 Confirmed.

00:24:18.280 Yes, we are.

00:24:18.700 That's confirmed.

00:24:19.780 He is.

00:24:20.860 We're very excited about it.

00:24:22.260 You know, they said, like, they think he died sometime in the last two years.

00:24:26.780 Wow.

00:24:27.440 Do we know of what?

00:24:29.020 Again, narrow it down a little bit more than that.

00:24:30.580 Did he die of heat-seeking missile, or did he die of some natural cause?

00:24:36.260 Psoriasis.

00:24:36.960 Oh, wow.

00:24:37.560 The heartbreak of psoriasis killed him.

00:24:40.120 It broke his heart so hard, he passed away.

00:24:43.220 So that's really.

00:24:44.240 I normally hate when that happens, but not in this case.

00:24:47.580 In this case, at all.

00:24:49.860 So you can go to blazetv.com, use the promo code GLEN20 and save 20 bucks.

00:24:54.080 They also have the entire Ilhan Omar special from Glenn that's kind of been all over the

00:24:58.180 internet.

00:24:58.580 So if you want to go see that, it's a good place to go.

00:25:01.100 I can't get enough of the squad.

00:25:02.520 Oh.

00:25:02.880 I can't get enough of the squad.

00:25:05.920 Yeah, the squad is fascinating.

00:25:08.280 Yeah.

00:25:08.620 The squad is fascinating.

00:25:09.880 Because they can say kind of anything and get away with it, because their only approach

00:25:14.060 to life is to tell you how they've been victimized.

00:25:17.520 So every story that goes on with the squad always comes back to how they're a terrible

00:25:22.720 victim.

00:25:23.140 You know, like there was a sign of this from the staffers of Kamala Harris this week when

00:25:29.960 Kamala Harris and Joe Biden walked to the center stage.

00:25:32.420 Obviously, Harris kind of hammered Biden in the first debate.

00:25:35.820 Biden walks up to him.

00:25:37.280 A nice moment.

00:25:38.340 He says, ah, go easy on me, kid.

00:25:40.420 What was the reaction from the Kamala Harris staffers?

00:25:43.100 Kid?

00:25:44.520 She's a senator.

00:25:46.220 How dare you refer to her an accomplished woman breaking a glass ceiling as a kid?

00:25:56.440 There's just constant victimization.

00:25:58.540 She won the battle and is still the victim, right?

00:26:01.300 Yeah.

00:26:01.600 It's just nonsensical.

00:26:03.580 And this is the attitude of the squad all the time.

00:26:06.840 Always the victim.

00:26:08.260 Someone's always oppressing them.

00:26:09.880 There's always a man there to push them down.

00:26:13.360 They can't despite the fact that we're talking about a person who is a bartender a year and

00:26:19.080 a half ago and is running the Democratic Party.

00:26:21.460 That person is telling you that they are oppressed.

00:26:25.660 The same thing with Kirsten Gillibrand on stage.

00:26:29.060 Oh, gosh.

00:26:30.080 I mean, she's not part of the squad, however, but she says, oh, gosh, you know what?

00:26:35.100 I'm the right person to be nominated as the Democratic candidate because I can go to suburban

00:26:41.700 women and explain to them what white privilege is.

00:26:45.660 Have you ever heard of a more demeaning statement?

00:26:49.320 And then she said, you know, I know I'm a beneficiary of white privilege, which not in the polls,

00:26:56.300 you're not.

00:26:56.700 I don't know where.

00:26:58.740 In fact, so far, she's not part of the next debate.

00:27:00.760 No.

00:27:01.180 Because she is not qualified.

00:27:02.340 She's not close to qualifying.

00:27:03.700 No, I think she's on either one.

00:27:05.400 I think she's been over 2% in one poll, right?

00:27:09.660 But she doesn't have 130,000 donations.

00:27:13.640 Donors.

00:27:13.960 And you need both in this next debate.

00:27:15.480 So 130,000 individual donors, plus you have to hit 2%, and I believe it's four polls.

00:27:21.240 Now, there's going to be a lot of polls before here and there, but there's only certain ones

00:27:24.560 that qualify.

00:27:25.420 So even if she hit 2% before this previous debate, that wouldn't count.

00:27:29.020 It's going to be something that leading up to this next one.

00:27:31.280 Can she get some additional support?

00:27:32.620 It's possible, but she's a disaster.

00:27:34.600 And the squad, you know, look, they're very well known, but very unpopular.

00:27:38.280 I mean, Ilhan Omar has a 9% approval rating.

00:27:40.440 AOC's at like 20.

00:27:42.140 People know them very well.

00:27:44.120 They just don't like them.

00:27:45.060 And so AOC was on a radio show talking about marginalized communities.

00:27:53.760 And I think she, look, marginalized communities, again, marginalized, whoever she's talking

00:27:59.880 about is a victim.

00:28:00.920 And there's only one thing that they can do in this victimized situation.

00:28:03.840 Listen.

00:28:03.960 That by marginalizing Palestinians, you create safety.

00:28:09.020 I believe that injustice is a threat to the safety of all people.

00:28:14.660 Because once you have a group that is marginalized and marginalized and marginalized, then you create

00:28:21.820 a popular, like once someone doesn't have access to clean water, they have no choice but

00:28:27.240 to riot.

00:28:28.000 Right?

00:28:28.400 Oh, wrong.

00:28:30.240 No.

00:28:32.100 Remember the riots of Flint, Michigan?

00:28:34.380 When they didn't have access to clean water, they just went nuts.

00:28:37.660 They just went ape crap and just started burning down that city.

00:28:41.900 It doesn't even exist today in Michigan.

00:28:44.660 There used to be.

00:28:45.460 There's just a hole where Flint, Michigan was.

00:28:48.080 And they were pretty pissed about that.

00:28:49.400 Yeah, they were.

00:28:50.160 Interestingly enough, I've heard over and over again for years that Flint, Michigan was the

00:28:54.300 result of this, I think, a Republican conspiracy to either kill African Americans or, at the

00:29:01.600 very least, just because they wanted evil profits or something.

00:29:05.840 What we find out, by the way, on Flint, Michigan, is their system with Detroit was actually working

00:29:12.360 pretty well.

00:29:12.960 They had a long-term lease with water from Detroit.

00:29:15.520 It was working pretty well.

00:29:16.480 The water was cheap.

00:29:17.920 But they decided to change that.

00:29:19.740 Why did they decide to change that?

00:29:21.900 Shovel-ready jobs.

00:29:23.160 Because you see, they had to build a brand new pipeline for the water.

00:29:26.660 And they were able to use stimulus to come in and say, oh, well, we can, not only are

00:29:30.920 we going to get new water supply, but we'll also create a bunch of jobs for people to work

00:29:34.560 on this pipeline.

00:29:35.460 So when they implemented that, it was something they didn't need.

00:29:39.580 They implemented it because of the government, because of a Keynesian economic argument of

00:29:44.780 stimulus.

00:29:45.960 They decided to build these things.

00:29:47.640 That's when everything got screwed up.

00:29:49.180 So this is not a, and Republicans and Democrats agreed, by the way, to do this, because Republicans

00:29:54.580 no longer care about arguments on economics.

00:29:57.360 It's not a thing anymore.

00:29:59.140 But Republicans came on and said, yeah, we need new shovel-ready jobs.

00:30:01.620 And Democrats came on and said, yeah, we need new shovel-ready jobs.

00:30:04.240 So they built this pipeline.

00:30:06.360 And wow, did that turn out well.

00:30:07.860 Well, yeah, well, like the president at the time said, shovel-ready was not as shovel-ready

00:30:14.940 as we expected.

00:30:17.460 That's so funny.

00:30:20.000 I love it when they screw up policy like that.

00:30:22.380 They lied to us, right to our faces.

00:30:23.980 Right to our faces.

00:30:24.560 It's so funny.

00:30:25.480 So speaking of AOC and how people have no choice but to riot if they don't have access

00:30:38.460 to clean water, that's one of her incredible thoughts of the last year.

00:30:42.020 Yeah.

00:30:42.500 Prospect Magazine has deemed her one of the world's top 50 thinkers of the year.

00:30:47.720 No, no, no, no, no, no.

00:30:48.480 Of the year.

00:30:48.940 No, they did not.

00:30:49.660 One of the year's top 50 thinkers.

00:30:53.480 No, is that amazing?

00:30:56.400 Top 50 thinkers?

00:30:58.020 She doesn't even know the requirements of her own job.

00:31:02.740 What's this thing in my sink?

00:31:05.640 When I flip a switch, it growls.

00:31:08.640 I'm scared.

00:31:11.500 Like Israel is like, I don't know, like whatever.

00:31:17.960 Yeah, she's really thoughtful.

00:31:19.760 She's really brilliant.

00:31:21.020 I mean, look, you can definitely make the argument.

00:31:23.300 She's influential.

00:31:24.740 Yes, but she is not a thinker.

00:31:26.820 She doesn't know anything.

00:31:27.620 She's butt stupid, this woman.

00:31:29.460 The only thing of substance that she's actually produced was the FAQ for her Green New Deal,

00:31:35.580 which is she herself has denied.

00:31:38.160 She has now thrown to the sidelines and acted as if she somehow mistakenly wrote it.

00:31:44.300 It's like you don't mistakenly write things.

00:31:46.700 That's not how writing works.

00:31:48.880 You can't mistake.

00:31:50.280 Oh, I just mistakenly wrote this novel.

00:31:52.720 Oops.

00:31:53.200 Look at this.

00:31:53.680 It's a spy thriller.

00:31:55.240 Oh, how did that happen?

00:31:56.640 When you write things, it's intentional.

00:31:58.620 Well, she chisels her thoughts into stone so she can't take it back.

00:32:02.720 Okay.

00:32:03.200 Yeah, so there's no erasing it.

00:32:04.820 I didn't know that.

00:32:05.520 Yeah.

00:32:05.900 Because, I mean, this is...

00:32:06.740 You thought she was maybe using a word processor or something.

00:32:09.400 No.

00:32:09.900 No.

00:32:10.320 No.

00:32:10.520 Because they said, oh, that was half-baked.

00:32:13.820 We weren't done with that yet.

00:32:14.940 Well, first of all, I mean, it showed, right?

00:32:17.280 It was terrible.

00:32:18.460 It was not only ridiculous ideas like retrofit every building in America.

00:32:24.000 Every country.

00:32:24.240 Yep.

00:32:25.460 To put high-speed rail to every place that airplanes fly.

00:32:29.880 Eliminate air flight within 10 years.

00:32:31.840 Within 10 years.

00:32:32.980 Get rid of all automobiles.

00:32:35.280 We're talking about free jobs for everyone who's willing to work, I think it was.

00:32:41.180 Or even unwilling, wasn't it?

00:32:42.580 And then they still get paid, I think.

00:32:43.940 Yeah.

00:32:44.100 You still get paid if you're unwilling.

00:32:45.780 And this all came out.

00:32:46.760 And how did...

00:32:47.640 It wasn't one of these things where...

00:32:49.800 Every once in a while, you get this thing where the Blaze uncovers this hidden document.

00:32:55.100 It was sent to us by a source.

00:32:57.080 They sent it to NPR.

00:32:59.260 They were proud of this.

00:33:00.300 They sent the FAQ.

00:33:01.280 This is the one that also said, we can't quite solve cow farts yet.

00:33:05.420 They sent this to NPR to tell them how to cover it.

00:33:11.940 And then tried to deny later on that this was just a draft.

00:33:15.220 Well, where was the final product?

00:33:16.560 You never came out with a final product.

00:33:18.860 They didn't have a final product.

00:33:20.740 This was the final product.

00:33:22.120 And they were just embarrassed at the ridicule they received.

00:33:24.400 And they deserved every bit of it.

00:33:25.500 Oh, absolutely.

00:33:26.740 That was one of the things, too, by the way, Andrew Yang said in the debate,

00:33:29.460 that no one really pointed out.

00:33:31.420 Yang pointed out something that we've noted many times here,

00:33:35.340 which is the U.S. is only 15% of global emissions.

00:33:39.940 15%.

00:33:40.300 Yeah.

00:33:41.060 Okay.

00:33:41.440 They don't like to hear that.

00:33:42.360 They don't like to hear that because if you...

00:33:44.680 Put it this way.

00:33:45.680 The entire transportation sector of the United States is about 20% of our total emissions.

00:33:50.940 Okay?

00:33:51.340 All cars, trucks, the entire transportation sector.

00:33:54.680 If you turned it off, if you had a switch, and you were able to just flip it off like a light switch,

00:34:00.820 the entire transportation goes carbon-free tomorrow, you would save 3% of global emissions.

00:34:07.360 Three.

00:34:08.600 China is growing at between 1.5% and 2% per year.

00:34:12.640 So you would have, you would wipe out the gains, you know, whatever you were able to gain from AOC's,

00:34:19.900 you know, turning off the transportation sector idea, it would be wiped out by China in two years.

00:34:25.540 Unbelievable.

00:34:26.160 And we're talking about something that's impossible, just turning off the transportation sector.

00:34:29.180 She's one of the world's top 50 thinkers.

00:34:30.780 Right.

00:34:31.580 Crazy.

00:34:32.080 Come on now.

00:34:32.820 They write, the voluminous coverage of 29-year-old Ocasio-Cortez, who was elected to Congress last

00:34:37.680 November, is focused on her youth and personality, certainly her campaigning skills, mastery of

00:34:41.860 social media, and up-from-the-Bronks story are striking.

00:34:46.680 But what's most interesting about her meteoric political career is that her success is based

00:34:51.440 on ideas.

00:34:52.680 Is it?

00:34:53.180 Yeah.

00:34:53.800 It was her manifesto, Healthcare for All, Tuition-Free University, and a federal jobs program

00:34:59.980 that set her on her path.

00:35:01.300 Wait a minute.

00:35:01.680 Bernie Sanders proposed all of those things before she was even born, I think.

00:35:06.620 And ran for president and finished second last time.

00:35:08.500 Jeez.

00:35:09.380 But they do admit she's the force behind the Green New Deal, which is embarrassing, and

00:35:14.580 has put taxes and how much the rich pay back on the American political agenda.

00:35:18.580 It's always been on the political agenda.

00:35:19.420 Nobody ever talks about how much the rich pay.

00:35:21.560 Because if people actually knew how much they pay, they'd be flabbergasted.

00:35:25.140 They'd be stunned that they pay 45% or 50% or sometimes 55%, depending on what state

00:35:31.400 you live in, you could pay up to 60% in taxes.

00:35:34.380 I think that would shock a lot of people.

00:35:36.520 Yeah.

00:35:36.620 They went back and they did a poll several years ago as to not just should we raise taxes

00:35:41.160 on the rich, but what's the amount that's okay to charge them?

00:35:45.900 And people were like, well, should it be more than 5%?

00:35:49.780 Should it be more than 10%?

00:35:50.660 And they go up the whole thing.

00:35:51.760 Yeah.

00:35:51.980 And most people, the majority of people said it shouldn't be more than 25%.

00:35:55.720 It shouldn't be more.

00:35:56.620 It shouldn't be more.

00:35:56.880 That's wrong to go over 25%.

00:35:58.740 Most people believe, because of the way that people talk about this, that they pay zero.

00:36:02.420 Right.

00:36:02.760 Right?

00:36:03.100 Because they'll say like, well, Amazon paid zero in taxes.

00:36:05.780 And so people are just like, oh, well, you know.

00:36:07.520 That's what the rich pay.

00:36:08.440 That's what the rich pay.

00:36:09.200 They're all getting away with it.

00:36:10.300 They're not paying anything.

00:36:11.120 And that's, of course, not true at all.

00:36:12.200 And now you get people like Bernie talking maybe 70%.

00:36:15.280 Yeah.

00:36:15.660 And AOC said that as well.

00:36:16.860 Unbelievable.

00:36:17.180 888-727-BECK.

00:36:21.020 Pat and Stu for Glenn on the Glenn Beck program.

00:36:23.880 888-727-BECK.

00:36:27.340 Here's yet another indication about how indoctrinated American students are in colleges all over the country.

00:36:34.240 The College Pulse surveyed 27,000 college students.

00:36:38.180 And 30% of them said that China is the most powerful nation on earth, not the United States of America.

00:36:45.500 Hmm.

00:36:46.000 I mean, there's just the, you know, it's socialism is better than capitalism.

00:36:50.800 China is more powerful and better than the United States.

00:36:53.720 It's just the continual indoctrination, it seems, of higher education.

00:36:58.600 It's really tough.

00:36:59.560 This is a hard battle that it seems like we're losing right now.

00:37:03.600 How many of your kids went to college?

00:37:05.840 All of them?

00:37:06.880 Most of them?

00:37:07.780 I mean, I know you're three right now.

00:37:10.680 And yeah, I'm trying to think.

00:37:12.720 71 of them.

00:37:13.560 So, yeah.

00:37:15.460 What percentage of, can you give me a roundabout percentage of how many?

00:37:19.180 Do you know how many kids you have?

00:37:19.660 I'm going to say 38% of them graduated from college.

00:37:22.660 Yeah.

00:37:22.880 38%.

00:37:23.600 Because I, you know, I have younger kids.

00:37:26.020 There's six and seven.

00:37:27.780 And I, as of this moment, I'm like, hell no.

00:37:30.960 I'm certainly not paying for it.

00:37:32.940 Right.

00:37:33.280 But I don't even want them to go.

00:37:35.160 I know.

00:37:35.980 I would much rather go a different direction.

00:37:38.300 I mean, I.

00:37:38.740 Because I'll tell you, it's hard to find a conservative college.

00:37:41.500 Yeah.

00:37:41.920 You can go to a college where you think it's conservative.

00:37:45.100 And then they're going to get hit by some liberal professor there.

00:37:48.220 I feel like if you go to the hardest right-wing school you can find, you're going to get neutral.

00:37:53.000 You know, if you're lucky.

00:37:54.120 Yes.

00:37:54.420 If you're lucky.

00:37:55.080 If you're lucky.

00:37:55.540 I'd much rather invest in their early education than invest in college at this point.

00:38:02.080 Because a lot of the stuff, too, you're learning in college is obsolete so fast.

00:38:06.480 I'd rather invest in a better primary education.

00:38:09.480 Yeah.

00:38:09.720 Get the foundations the way you want them.

00:38:11.400 And then, you know what?

00:38:12.040 They're going to have to figure out the rest of their life.

00:38:13.700 Good luck, kid.

00:38:14.540 But, I mean, I'll give you the basis.

00:38:16.260 You go out there afterwards.

00:38:17.760 What you do with it is yours.

00:38:19.140 Yeah.

00:38:19.520 But, you know, I don't know.

00:38:20.960 Spending $100,000 to send them to be indoctrinated into socialism?

00:38:25.200 Doesn't make any sense.

00:38:26.080 Oh, thank you.

00:38:26.540 The Fusion of Entertainment and Enlightenment.

00:38:36.620 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:38:38.960 Pat and Stu for Glenn on the Glenn Beck Program.

00:38:41.700 888-727-BECK.

00:38:44.820 Get this.

00:38:46.320 Women in Saudi Arabia will no longer need the permission of a male guardian to travel.

00:38:52.380 What?

00:38:52.880 That country is going to hell in a handbasket.

00:38:55.520 Wow.

00:38:56.560 They are going to...

00:38:57.460 Oh, my gosh.

00:38:57.940 They can leave their house and drive around, say, Riyadh, without a man?

00:39:05.840 Drive around?

00:39:06.800 They can drive.

00:39:08.160 Yes, I believe so.

00:39:09.320 This is horrible.

00:39:10.260 A few other changes that they're making right now.

00:39:12.840 I mean, next they'll be telling us they can vote.

00:39:14.940 Oh, my God.

00:39:15.580 No.

00:39:15.720 And then you might as well just forget it.

00:39:17.220 Then you just turn the country off.

00:39:18.520 Right?

00:39:18.980 Mm-hmm.

00:39:20.940 They're also thinking about allowing them to apply for passports.

00:39:26.000 No.

00:39:26.520 Register a marriage, divorce, or childbirth, and be issued official family documents.

00:39:34.660 Oh, my goodness.

00:39:37.300 Okay.

00:39:38.380 Official family documents?

00:39:39.820 Yeah.

00:39:40.020 Not rip off replicas?

00:39:41.340 No.

00:39:41.420 No.

00:39:41.980 Actually, official documents issued by the kingdom.

00:39:46.340 It's interesting that this is happening.

00:39:49.340 And look, first of all, it actually is really positive.

00:39:52.060 Yeah.

00:39:52.340 It's ridiculously backward.

00:39:53.740 There have been some reforms lately.

00:39:56.040 Yeah.

00:39:56.320 They've moved.

00:39:57.360 It's interesting.

00:39:57.900 The guy who's capturing his relatives and holding them hostage inside the Four Seasons is a guy who's pushing for a lot of these reforms.

00:40:05.400 Mm-hmm.

00:40:06.180 And, you know, he's gone.

00:40:08.580 What seems completely ridiculous to us, that they would still have these restrictions on women.

00:40:14.520 It is positive.

00:40:16.140 You know, progress is positive on that front.

00:40:18.360 Right?

00:40:18.800 Mm-hmm.

00:40:18.960 So, you know, it's easy to mock, and I will mock it.

00:40:22.040 But it's also positive, I guess, in some roundabout sort of way, because there's still so much negative there.

00:40:27.760 It's hard to get excited about it.

00:40:29.360 But I find this interesting, and I was actually watching Handmaid's Tale last night.

00:40:34.440 Have you watched this?

00:40:35.260 I've never seen it, no.

00:40:35.880 It's probably a little dark for-

00:40:36.940 Is it HBO?

00:40:37.700 Is that what it is?

00:40:38.500 It is Hulu, I believe.

00:40:39.700 Hulu.

00:40:40.080 Okay.

00:40:40.680 And my wife loves the show.

00:40:42.200 Like, she's totally into it.

00:40:43.620 Every Wednesday, I think, the episodes come out, and she's like, I don't, you know, she just disappears for an hour because she has to watch it on the night it comes out.

00:40:51.020 She's that into it.

00:40:51.940 Mm-hmm.

00:40:52.140 And it's a really well-done show.

00:40:53.480 I mean, you could tell they spent a lot of money on it.

00:40:56.280 And it's a great, it's a fascinating premise.

00:40:59.760 I would love to see the show made in which they kind of, like, a prequel series would be really fascinating.

00:41:06.780 Basically, the concept is, like, at some point, and we're going to butcher this if you're a fan, I'm sorry.

00:41:10.760 I don't really watch the show.

00:41:11.700 But at some point, there was a civil war of sorts in that, and somehow, like, a group of religious fanatics basically took the country over.

00:41:21.860 Now, America, I think, still exists, but it's, like, only in Alaska.

00:41:25.140 America, and the place, most of what you would think of as America is a place called Gilead.

00:41:32.020 Okay?

00:41:32.280 So it's a, it's a, and it's, like, a super religious fundamentalist place where, like, the guys have all the rights.

00:41:39.820 They, the women are all basically slaves.

00:41:42.700 There's something to do with, like.

00:41:43.700 Because we're on the verge of that right now.

00:41:45.780 Oh, it's fine.

00:41:46.260 Am I right?

00:41:46.680 Oh, my gosh.

00:41:47.180 We are just on the verge.

00:41:49.260 Yeah.

00:41:49.800 Yeah.

00:41:49.880 I mean, it's basically Mike Pence's fever dream.

00:41:52.620 This is what he wants to happen.

00:41:55.000 And that's kind of why.

00:41:56.480 Well, he won't have dinner with a woman other than his wife.

00:41:59.620 Which is the same thing.

00:42:00.840 Same thing.

00:42:01.440 Same thing.

00:42:02.100 Same thing.

00:42:03.120 And there's something to do with, like, an infertility problem in the country.

00:42:08.620 So I don't know what caused that.

00:42:10.360 I don't know if it's clear in the actual series.

00:42:11.780 But basically, there's this sort of, uh, any fertile woman is going to have a lot of issues.

00:42:18.440 Uh, because she's basically going to, uh, be raped over and over and over and over again by basically every, every commander or whatever that wants to.

00:42:26.800 It's, I will say it's really hard for me to watch it at all.

00:42:31.140 Because it's, like.

00:42:32.420 It's pretty ugly.

00:42:33.120 It's basically, like, think of every awful thing that could possibly be done to a woman.

00:42:37.320 And here's a series about it.

00:42:38.940 That's essentially the entire thing.

00:42:40.680 So I don't know.

00:42:41.500 It's hard to watch.

00:42:42.480 But it's really well done.

00:42:44.120 And, you know, you can understand why it's popular.

00:42:46.580 But the real reason why it's so popular in such a media, darling, is exactly what we were just talking about.

00:42:51.520 It's, like, it's a left-wing, uh, fantasy of what they think Donald Trump would do if he had complete control.

00:42:59.660 Right?

00:42:59.840 It's, like, basically a statement against, women have no rights right now.

00:43:04.360 You know, Me Too and, and all of these other things combined to, we're essentially Gilead.

00:43:09.560 We're essentially this, this oppressed society.

00:43:13.160 We're what, we're Donald Trump stays in power.

00:43:15.180 This is happening at the end.

00:43:16.180 It's kind of how I think the left looks at it.

00:43:18.640 Which is fascinating, though.

00:43:19.940 The, the, uh, the...

00:43:21.060 And he's so fundamentally religious.

00:43:23.380 Oh, it's so deep.

00:43:24.020 There's no one more fundamentally religious than Donald Trump.

00:43:27.840 Oh, my gosh.

00:43:28.540 So.

00:43:28.820 It goes back so far.

00:43:30.700 I, look, he's been good on a lot of those issues, but I would not say it's to his core.

00:43:34.380 No.

00:43:34.620 Uh, but anyway, so he has a, uh, there's an episode last night where this commander guy,

00:43:40.460 they're driving somewhere.

00:43:42.140 I don't know.

00:43:42.780 I don't know the whole story, but, and I'm, minor, minor spoiler alert if you're watching

00:43:46.380 the series, but they're driving down this road.

00:43:48.480 Now I know somebody's driving.

00:43:49.720 Great.

00:43:50.260 Thanks.

00:43:51.500 Crap.

00:43:51.980 Thanks for that.

00:43:52.640 I should have said spoiler alert first.

00:43:54.200 So they're driving down this road, and at one point, there's this big moment where,

00:43:58.560 like, you know, the music builds, and this big moment where the commander says to his

00:44:02.620 wife, do you want to drive?

00:44:04.260 And she looks at him like, what?

00:44:06.920 Drive me?

00:44:08.060 I'm a woman!

00:44:09.520 And they pull over, and they switch seats, and they put the top down, and they're just

00:44:13.220 driving down this road, and it's kind of like the old days.

00:44:15.000 She's remembering her freedoms of the old days and stuff.

00:44:17.380 And it's like, the left looks at this and says, this is what Donald Trump wants.

00:44:22.620 And they don't look at it and say, this is what half the world is.

00:44:27.140 Right now, half the world is coming up with, you know what?

00:44:29.840 Maybe we should let women drive.

00:44:31.180 Maybe some of them should vote.

00:44:32.560 Maybe we should see more than just their eyes.

00:44:35.920 Because a big part of the handmaid's sales, they're all dressed up in these fundamentalist

00:44:39.480 ways.

00:44:40.080 They're all very much covered up.

00:44:41.440 You can only see their faces.

00:44:42.780 It's like, you guys realize that the people you're constantly defending, you're saying that

00:44:47.820 we should not say their culture is worse than ours.

00:44:50.140 That is happening in those places right now.

00:44:54.120 Yeah.

00:44:54.420 And we were just talking about the reforms in Saudi Arabia.

00:44:57.320 Yet still, the rules are in place where they require male consent for a woman to leave

00:45:04.480 prison, male consent for a woman to exit domestic abuse shelters.

00:45:09.440 Can you imagine that?

00:45:10.840 So your husband has to come and let you out of a domestic abuse shelter?

00:45:13.840 That doesn't seem like a good idea to me.

00:45:15.880 That does seem like a problematic strategy.

00:45:17.660 Yeah, they can't marry without male consent, and women, unlike men, still can't pass on

00:45:21.920 citizenship to their children.

00:45:24.320 I will say in most marriages, male consent is also used here.

00:45:28.560 It's a weird one.

00:45:29.920 What do you mean male?

00:45:30.520 I guess, unless it's two women marrying each other, male consent's always part of that

00:45:33.960 package, isn't it?

00:45:34.620 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:46:54.120 888-727-BECK.

00:46:58.400 Wow.

00:46:59.080 Do these things ever fade away, Pat?

00:47:00.460 Is there ever a moment in which these crazy warnings and fears are ever...

00:47:07.980 Is there a moment where they later on go back and say, wow, we shouldn't have been...

00:47:11.660 That was pretty ridiculous.

00:47:13.440 No, they never do that.

00:47:14.280 They never do that.

00:47:14.880 Like, I mean, really, before Trump and Pence went into the White House, there was a legitimate

00:47:20.960 outward fear that Mike Pence was going to start imprisoning homosexuals.

00:47:24.460 I don't know where that came from because he didn't...

00:47:29.420 He wasn't really outspoken about it, to my knowledge.

00:47:31.420 Not at all.

00:47:32.100 I mean, you know, he might have had a couple comments in, like, the 90s when he was in

00:47:35.740 Congress that they didn't like.

00:47:37.120 I think he was pro-traditional marriage.

00:47:39.760 He was for marriage between a man and a woman.

00:47:42.160 And I guess because Trump, obviously, not known as the most religious guy, they had to

00:47:46.220 find a religious boogeyman, right?

00:47:48.060 And so they picked Pence.

00:47:49.040 And they were like, oh, he's going to spend all of his time, you know, driving around

00:47:52.900 cities, just picking up gay people and put them in the back of a van and then bringing

00:47:56.600 them to prison.

00:47:57.480 Are there gay people left in our society?

00:47:59.160 I'm not sure.

00:47:59.860 I feel like...

00:48:00.560 They're all in prison right now.

00:48:01.120 They are all in prison.

00:48:02.320 So that one was true.

00:48:03.400 Okay.

00:48:03.720 Well, that's a bad example, man.

00:48:05.160 That Pence, man.

00:48:06.040 He just...

00:48:06.920 First of all, he wouldn't have dinner with women that weren't his wife.

00:48:09.600 Oh, my gosh.

00:48:09.880 Then he decided to jail all the gays.

00:48:11.880 Oh, my gosh.

00:48:12.640 You can't trust that guy.

00:48:15.080 The other one I was thinking of was, remember when they warned us that Cory Booker was going to

00:48:19.020 ban birth control?

00:48:20.240 Yeah.

00:48:20.700 And they ran this...

00:48:21.740 Cory Booker, you know, a moderate Republican senator from Colorado.

00:48:25.620 He's no hardcore conservative.

00:48:27.220 At no point did he ever consider trying to ban birth control.

00:48:32.020 And they ran tons of ads against him saying that when he got in there, that's what he's

00:48:36.160 going to do.

00:48:37.000 Right.

00:48:37.240 That was what his outcome was.

00:48:38.600 He was going to go in there and try to ban birth control.

00:48:40.860 That's right, Sweet Pea.

00:48:41.860 Cory Booker wants to ban birth control.

00:48:43.900 In that one, it was...

00:48:45.340 That's right, Sweet Pea.

00:48:45.980 Cory Booker banned birth control.

00:48:47.380 There's no condoms anywhere in America.

00:48:49.280 Right.

00:48:49.620 And that's, you know, it's essentially the same thing as Highland Handmaid's Tale,

00:48:52.100 right?

00:48:52.300 Like they...

00:48:52.960 Oh, Cory Gardner.

00:48:53.920 Yeah, not Booker.

00:48:54.720 What did I say Booker?

00:48:55.340 Did I say Booker?

00:48:56.020 I thought I said Gardner initially, but maybe we changed it.

00:48:58.260 Yeah.

00:48:58.580 Cory Gardner banned birth control.

00:49:00.300 Cory Gardner banned birth control.

00:49:00.800 Well, he did this.

00:49:02.160 They're all out.

00:49:03.120 Did you try the corner market?

00:49:04.440 Of course.

00:49:05.240 Grocery store?

00:49:06.140 Sold out.

00:49:06.900 Drug store?

00:49:07.720 Come on.

00:49:08.380 Stupid.

00:49:08.680 So everyone sold out of condoms.

00:49:11.280 Hmm.

00:49:12.240 How did this happen?

00:49:13.560 Cory Gardner banned birth control.

00:49:15.720 And now it's all on us guys.

00:49:17.680 Wow.

00:49:18.140 And you can't find a condom anywhere.

00:49:19.840 Can't find a condom.

00:49:20.560 And the pill was just the start.

00:49:22.180 Yeah.

00:49:22.380 The Pell Grants my little brother was counting on for college?

00:49:25.100 Gone.

00:49:25.420 Cory cut them.

00:49:26.540 Climate change that everyone knows is weirding our weather.

00:49:29.680 Weirding it.

00:49:29.980 Cory flat out denies it.

00:49:31.900 Sweepy.

00:49:32.460 Cory denies science.

00:49:33.920 Come on.

00:49:34.880 This guy has no idea what's going on in the real world.

00:49:37.840 I love that ad.

00:49:39.620 Such a great ad.

00:49:40.820 It's so, first of all, okay, if he's banned birth control, why are you going to all these

00:49:44.720 stores?

00:49:45.820 Right.

00:49:46.220 I guess, so he's banned the pill and condoms are theoretically available, but there's

00:49:51.780 not enough of them.

00:49:52.240 There's been a run on them, and so, yeah, they're completely out of stock.

00:49:56.340 Because now it's all on us guys.

00:49:59.220 I love that.

00:49:59.920 We shouldn't have to even think about it.

00:50:01.240 Us guys, we shouldn't have to even deal with it.

00:50:03.460 I love how dismissive he is of her when she asks about the drugs for her.

00:50:06.680 Come on, you moron.

00:50:07.340 Come on, you moron.

00:50:09.020 Idiot.

00:50:09.620 Of course I checked there.

00:50:11.100 Why would I check the gas station and the grocery store and not the drug store, you loser?

00:50:17.280 You know what?

00:50:17.780 Now I don't even want to have sex.

00:50:19.260 Now I don't even want to have sex with you.

00:50:22.240 Because you're so stupid that I can't bring myself to be interested.

00:50:28.400 I can't even look at you.

00:50:29.480 I can't.

00:50:29.860 I can't even look at you.

00:50:30.240 I'm just not into it anymore.

00:50:31.500 You're so dumb.

00:50:32.760 Why would you think I wouldn't look at the drug store?

00:50:35.580 Idiot.

00:50:36.640 Sweet pea.

00:50:37.160 So essentially, right now, Cory Gardner has banned sex.

00:50:40.600 Yeah, you just can't have it.

00:50:41.320 Yes, you can't have it.

00:50:42.320 Yeah.

00:50:42.660 You just can't have it.

00:50:44.200 You can't have it.

00:50:44.820 Because, I mean, God forbid, you know, you know, and it's like this idea.

00:50:48.940 So nobody comes back as, you know, like your first point.

00:50:52.160 Did they ever come back and say, hey, we panicked when we shouldn't have?

00:50:55.280 Did they ever say that about Cory Gardner?

00:50:57.300 No.

00:50:57.520 Yeah.

00:50:57.760 Who is not banned birth control, by the way.

00:50:59.480 And has made no moves to it.

00:51:01.020 Has introduced no bills that would do it.

00:51:03.060 Yeah.

00:51:03.260 Like none of it.

00:51:03.940 How about, I remember before George W. Bush, when he was going for re-election, Cameron Diaz.

00:51:10.400 Remember her?

00:51:11.520 Yeah.

00:51:12.480 The actress.

00:51:13.540 Yeah.

00:51:13.780 It's been a while.

00:51:14.680 So I just wanted to make sure people were familiar.

00:51:16.420 Mm-hmm.

00:51:16.720 But she said that a vote for George Bush was a vote to legalize rape.

00:51:22.840 Literally.

00:51:23.120 I mean, seriously said that.

00:51:26.340 Surprisingly, it's still illegal.

00:51:28.160 Is it illegal still?

00:51:29.260 Yeah.

00:51:29.360 It is.

00:51:29.620 Yeah, it is.

00:51:29.760 Okay.

00:51:30.060 That's good.

00:51:30.600 Yeah.

00:51:30.860 Shocking.

00:51:31.180 That's good.

00:51:31.460 I'm glad it's illegal.

00:51:32.200 It's not a good policy.

00:51:33.040 You should have, that's Gilead's policy, legalized rape.

00:51:35.660 Yeah.

00:51:35.820 We did not do that.

00:51:36.660 We didn't do it.

00:51:37.280 George W. Bush.

00:51:38.620 Did not legalize rape.

00:51:38.860 Because he was such a hardcore conservative that was just always pushing for those conservative

00:51:43.660 policies.

00:51:44.060 Another fundamentalist, man.

00:51:45.280 Oh my gosh.

00:51:46.380 You just.

00:51:47.100 No, didn't do that.

00:51:48.700 There's never a reckoning, right?

00:51:50.400 No.

00:51:50.500 There's never a point where you look back and you say, wow, you know what?

00:51:52.400 None of that crap happened.

00:51:53.400 Well, how many predictions have been wrong about global warming?

00:51:57.120 Every one of them?

00:51:58.000 And there's never.

00:51:58.680 All of them?

00:51:59.260 Never.

00:51:59.520 There's never a reckoning for that?

00:52:00.920 No.

00:52:01.140 I remember there was a book I read.

00:52:03.400 I think it was, I want to say it was Nate Silver's book a few years ago.

00:52:05.800 And he wrote in there, it's a chapter on global warming and he's no conservative.

00:52:10.800 But he was writing about this and saying like, look, you know, it's all about prediction

00:52:14.700 models and how to make predictions.

00:52:16.860 That's what the book is.

00:52:17.820 It's called The Signal and the Noise.

00:52:19.340 It's really, it's a great book.

00:52:20.140 And so at one point he's talking about global warming and he's like, you know, I think

00:52:25.100 normally what you would do, and he shows all the models and shows how typically these models

00:52:30.480 have overemphasized the potential for too much warming.

00:52:35.080 Like they've predicted incorrectly how much warming there was.

00:52:38.320 There was less warming in reality than there was in the prediction models.

00:52:41.460 And over time, when that happens over and over again, you would adjust your expectations.

00:52:45.760 Like that's how you make an informed prediction.

00:52:48.680 You adjust your expectations.

00:52:50.240 If you see these models are always too warm, you need to think about where it's going to

00:52:53.400 go.

00:52:53.740 And he got beat up.

00:52:55.160 A guy on the left got beat up because just saying the idea that these, just admitting

00:52:59.720 the actual facts that the models were overheated was too much for anyone to take and to think

00:53:04.820 that maybe we should readjust our beliefs and how we, you know, think about this.

00:53:10.200 And he wasn't saying, I don't think global warming is real or anything like that.

00:53:13.280 Now, Bjorn Lundberg is another guy, a guy who's, who's said over and over again, he believes

00:53:17.520 in global warming, says it's human caused and says, but the way we want to spend money

00:53:23.200 on it and our priorities need to be thought of in a much more methodical fashion.

00:53:27.660 The guy is called a climate denier.

00:53:30.400 Amazing.

00:53:30.920 It's insane.

00:53:32.520 It really is.

00:53:32.960 Sweet Pete, that's absolutely ridiculous.

00:53:35.580 Thanks, Sweet Pete.

00:54:53.680 Pat and Stu for Glenn on the Glenn Beck program.

00:54:55.920 888-727-B-E-C-K.

00:55:00.160 So can we look forward to any kind of corrections on any of the hysteria that we've heard in the last few years?

00:55:06.940 Will it ever happen?

00:55:08.300 I don't think it does because there really was a lot of hysteria.

00:55:11.620 We forget it from the Bush administration.

00:55:13.640 You know, because Trump is so much more of a large figure in just the public eye.

00:55:23.180 He's so much more involved in the lives, I think, of the everyday person.

00:55:27.780 When it was Bush, it was more like the political people and people who followed the news.

00:55:32.880 There was a lot of craziness there in Hollywood and stuff like that.

00:55:37.060 With Trump, it's everybody.

00:55:38.200 I think everybody is hearing all of these stories every day.

00:55:42.520 So it gets more and more crazy.

00:55:44.740 And to me, Bush kind of set the stage for Trump in that he responded to almost nothing.

00:55:49.880 Almost nothing.

00:55:50.160 He didn't respond ever.

00:55:51.420 No.

00:55:51.740 Just left it.

00:55:52.360 He let it lay.

00:55:53.120 Yep.

00:55:53.360 He didn't want to.

00:55:53.760 And then it festered and got worse.

00:55:55.380 Yeah, I think that's true.

00:55:56.120 That's a good point.

00:55:57.480 I think, you know, there was an interesting conversation I heard recently about the Tea Party and where it's gone.

00:56:04.160 I want to say it was with Tim Alberta, who wrote a great book.

00:56:06.840 Has it gone to the grave?

00:56:08.540 It's called American Carnage.

00:56:11.040 Dead.

00:56:11.280 Well, first of all, yes.

00:56:12.400 The Tea Party is absolutely dead.

00:56:15.280 You know, it's just the things that inspired the Tea Party.

00:56:19.920 Things like, hey, we need to cut the budget.

00:56:22.580 Hey, we need to have fiscal responsibility.

00:56:24.760 These things are not even considered anymore by the Democrats or the Republicans.

00:56:28.500 You're a lunatic if you're a Republican even and you bring it up.

00:56:31.180 And to Trump's credit, he ran on that.

00:56:32.800 Like he ran on, I'm not cutting Medicare.

00:56:34.520 I'm not cutting Social Security.

00:56:35.740 I won't adjust it.

00:56:36.180 Well, he said he liked debt.

00:56:37.220 I'm the king of debt.

00:56:38.180 I mean, he was very overt about it and, you know, and open.

00:56:42.680 And he's done that.

00:56:43.340 And he's done that.

00:56:43.980 So, I mean, it's hard to criticize him, though the conservatives in Congress could still vote for different things.

00:56:48.920 And they don't.

00:56:49.620 They vote for these giant spending programs.

00:56:51.960 We had one yesterday that was finally passed.

00:56:56.340 And it is an embarrassment to our nation.

00:56:59.500 The spending package that was just passed is utterly embarrassing.

00:57:04.460 We are projected to go $80 trillion in debt in the next 30 years.

00:57:10.260 In addition to the 22 we already have.

00:57:13.520 $80 trillion.

00:57:15.860 Just Social Security and Medicare is actually $103 trillion of debt.

00:57:19.660 But the rest of the budget supposedly, and if you believe this, you'll believe anything, is supposed to be $23 trillion in surplus.

00:57:26.260 So we are in massive problems here.

00:57:27.900 And, you know, they don't care.

00:57:29.040 Nobody cares.

00:57:30.120 It really is like there's almost no interest in the idea.

00:57:33.460 How did they come up with $23 trillion in surplus?

00:57:37.240 How is that going to happen?

00:57:38.820 It's a CBO report.

00:57:40.580 But you know, $23 trillion outside of those programs.

00:57:43.540 So overall, $80 trillion to the negative.

00:57:46.520 Yeah.

00:57:46.860 So that just shows you.

00:57:48.620 But that's like we'll be running a budget surplus?

00:57:50.420 Yeah.

00:57:52.340 Outside of those two programs.

00:57:53.740 That's what they say.

00:57:54.400 No, that's not going to happen.

00:57:55.480 It never happens.

00:57:56.500 That is not going to happen.

00:57:57.700 So there was an interesting sort of competing analysis.

00:58:00.260 I'd like to get your thoughts on this, Pat.

00:58:01.520 One, the Tea Party was never about those things.

00:58:05.240 It was about, look, you know, it's the closest.

00:58:07.620 You're in your bedroom in the middle of the night.

00:58:10.840 Someone breaks through your door.

00:58:12.020 You grab for the closest weapon.

00:58:13.620 Is it a lamp?

00:58:14.500 Is it a bat?

00:58:15.100 Whatever you can do to hit this guy, right?

00:58:16.700 Is it a gun?

00:58:17.480 Whatever you have.

00:58:18.900 And so the closest thing to opposition to something they did not want, which was Barack Obama,

00:58:25.000 people just grabbed for the budget.

00:58:26.180 They grabbed for constitutional values.

00:58:27.680 They grabbed for whatever was the most useful thing against Obama at that time.

00:58:31.900 But it was never a real belief of the core voter.

00:58:35.360 Yeah.

00:58:35.900 Is it that?

00:58:36.920 Or is it it really was a core belief?

00:58:39.820 But the people who were really supportive of the Tea Party said, we tried so hard.

00:58:45.160 We did all of these things and we still got nowhere.

00:58:48.480 So why bother?

00:58:49.720 And if basically given up and now let's just fight out the culture war and we'll fight out

00:58:53.780 these things, you know, we'll go at you.

00:58:55.660 We'll talk about Colin Kaepernick every day because that stuff's never going away.

00:58:59.340 We can't do anything about it.

00:59:00.480 Screw it.

00:59:00.900 So now there's no opposition to the spending.

00:59:03.120 I mean, there's one bill passed by essentially the Tea Party, which was the sequester.

00:59:07.560 And if you remember that whole debate, it was a one real one real restriction on spending

00:59:12.640 that was able to be passed.

00:59:13.700 It was overridden every single time by Republicans largely that said, we can go past these caps.

00:59:20.080 We can go past these caps.

00:59:21.060 And this last one is even worse.

00:59:22.540 Now the debt limit is gone for two more years.

00:59:25.040 They don't have to.

00:59:25.520 They don't even have to think about it.

00:59:27.400 And both sides are happy about it.

00:59:30.480 Because they both believe it's the president believes it's been taken off the table.

00:59:34.180 So they can't use that against him.

00:59:35.820 Yeah.

00:59:36.080 They can never say government shutdown, government shutdown.

00:59:38.720 Yep.

00:59:38.960 And that's just off the table to the election.

00:59:40.620 And now and that's what the Republicans in Washington believe at all levels is like,

00:59:46.280 look, you guys said you cared about this.

00:59:49.120 I don't think you do.

00:59:50.000 So we're just going to do what we need to do and spend as we need to spend.

00:59:53.940 Why should we take the arrows for this if you guys don't care about it?

00:59:57.460 And, you know, that's not leadership by any means, but it is seemingly the reality in 2019.

01:00:02.680 So the fallout from the debate is still going on.

01:00:09.860 And we are seeing a bunch of these candidates now have to answer for things that they either said or that are in their history.

01:00:18.780 And a lot of this happens when it's a good news if you are able to make a splash in the debate, but then they're going to start asking you questions.

01:00:25.980 So let's go through some of these.

01:00:28.440 This is all from sort of reaction interviews after the debates.

01:00:32.580 Okay.

01:00:33.080 Here is Tulsi Gabbard.

01:00:34.820 Now, she made a big splash.

01:00:36.000 I thought she was the best one in that second debate.

01:00:40.240 I thought she did very well.

01:00:41.900 She had a really good back and forth with Kamala Harris.

01:00:44.900 A lot of people kind of thought she won it.

01:00:46.600 Yeah, I thought she did.

01:00:47.520 Yeah.

01:00:48.220 And she did really well in the first one, too.

01:00:50.520 She's solid.

01:00:52.440 She's a decent.

01:00:54.020 She's really well-spoken.

01:00:55.380 She seems to be pretty smart.

01:00:56.960 She's got a really interesting background.

01:00:59.440 Fascinating background.

01:01:00.420 And the fact that she did two tours in the Middle East is amazing.

01:01:04.540 And that now you wouldn't expect her to be really anti-war.

01:01:09.520 And she is.

01:01:10.540 Yeah, very much so.

01:01:12.460 And she's sort of, she has an interesting brand of her type of anti-war.

01:01:17.180 It's like, there's a certain, I think I said this, there's like a, you know, it's like

01:01:23.760 if Bernie Sanders and like someone from the alt-right had a baby.

01:01:29.460 It would be her.

01:01:30.360 It's like her, it's like really, it's a strange grouping of views.

01:01:34.200 But part of that is why she kind of seems like the most sane sometimes, because she has

01:01:38.580 some views that are sort of conservative, libertarian-ish.

01:01:42.060 Most of them are not.

01:01:44.060 Strangely, some people are now, and I'm sure it's just opponents in the Democrat Party,

01:01:49.760 believing that she's being controlled by Russians.

01:01:52.920 Have you seen that line of thinking?

01:01:54.760 Yeah.

01:01:55.180 Because she aligns, the foreign policy stuff aligns well with like the Russia Today take

01:02:00.360 on the world, right?

01:02:01.280 Like that, you know, one of the big ones is Bashar al-Assad.

01:02:04.700 She's been by far.

01:02:05.640 And she is really kind of friendly to him.

01:02:08.080 Yeah.

01:02:08.440 Like the biggest defender of Assad that you could find.

01:02:11.140 Which is very weird.

01:02:12.540 Probably in all of Congress.

01:02:14.120 It's a strange, again, it's a strange set of views.

01:02:17.980 I'd like to hear, I don't know that I ever have heard her explain why she's pro-Assad.

01:02:23.300 There's not a lot of people, like you said, who are.

01:02:26.120 Let her give it a whirl here, Pat.

01:02:27.120 Here's Gabbard on meeting Bashar al-Assad.

01:02:29.740 When sitting down with someone like Bashar al-Assad in Syria, do you confront him directly

01:02:35.740 and say, why do you order chemical attacks on your own people?

01:02:39.820 Why do you cause the killings of over half a million people in your country?

01:02:43.780 Look, you know, I want to break this down to what we're talking about.

01:02:47.600 It's really a yes or no answer.

01:02:48.320 Do you confront him?

01:02:49.100 I want to break this down to what we're talking about here today, because you're talking

01:02:52.300 about a meeting that took place, what, three years ago?

01:02:55.580 Well, Congresswoman, you're leading your...

01:02:57.080 No, every time I come back here on MSNBC, you guys talk to me about these issues.

01:03:02.280 It sounds like these are talking points that Kamala Harris and her campaign are feeding

01:03:06.040 you because she's refusing to address the questions that were posed to her.

01:03:11.100 It's important, I think, for the American people to have context about your foreign policy

01:03:13.760 issues and where you stand.

01:03:14.940 If you're leading with foreign policy and you're running for the president of the United

01:03:17.700 States, a meeting with Bashar al-Assad, which I'm sure you understand, is a very controversial

01:03:23.300 meeting to take, hence the reason why, when you come on MSNBC, it is important for us

01:03:27.980 to talk to you about them.

01:03:29.220 And of course, every anchor has a different perspective and different questions to ask

01:03:33.040 of you.

01:03:33.700 So when you're on for three years, this is where the propaganda comes in.

01:03:38.600 I will say, too...

01:03:39.380 You kind of like that, though, because she's subjected to some of what Republicans face

01:03:44.460 every single time.

01:03:45.920 Yeah.

01:03:46.380 I will say, and this is a great example of it because it happens to Republicans all the

01:03:49.600 time.

01:03:50.120 You can't say, look, it's important we ask these questions.

01:03:53.260 We have to have context to your trip and then demand a yes or no answer.

01:03:56.680 You can't get context out of a yes or no answer.

01:03:59.360 Right.

01:03:59.640 That's not possible.

01:04:00.540 That's right.

01:04:01.080 Right.

01:04:01.780 But she did not explain herself there.

01:04:04.040 She did not.

01:04:04.760 I would have liked it if she did.

01:04:05.980 She does.

01:04:06.580 You know, she's talked about this in that she did it eventually.

01:04:10.100 You know, she will acknowledge that this guy is a really bad guy.

01:04:13.740 She will acknowledge that?

01:04:14.560 She said that he, you know, he is a, she's very much against war there, but she says,

01:04:19.720 you know, he is, he did, you know, hurt his and kill his own people with chemical weapons

01:04:24.180 and all the rest.

01:04:25.660 I think there's a little bit of a temptation with her in that, you know, we forget that

01:04:33.560 people like Dianne Feinstein was meeting with Assad.

01:04:36.420 Assad was not someone that the Democrats didn't meet with routinely and not only Democrats, but

01:04:40.860 largely Democrats.

01:04:41.820 Yeah, a short time ago, he was not the boogeyman of the Middle East.

01:04:44.960 Once they got into that war, most people bailed on the thing, though.

01:04:47.120 Yeah.

01:04:47.380 And she, she seems to be the one who stuck around it the most, which is kind of strange.

01:04:53.640 Yes.

01:04:53.900 But the two things to take out of that, I think.

01:04:55.920 Number one, people are starting to recognize that Gabbard is at least a force on the, on

01:05:00.320 the lower end of this election.

01:05:01.720 Someone who has the, the possibility of getting into the next debates, someone who could make

01:05:05.760 some noise.

01:05:06.380 Well, and she's only 38.

01:05:07.960 She's kind of setting herself up for later.

01:05:10.080 For later, a later run.

01:05:11.160 Because she could run how many times, six times, five or six times.

01:05:15.820 I assume they all will, right?

01:05:17.500 Yeah.

01:05:18.560 But she could also be a possibility for a secretary of state or secretary of defense or something

01:05:23.400 in that, in that realm.

01:05:24.680 Also, VP is a big consideration.

01:05:26.280 And that is also tipped.

01:05:28.240 The hand is tipped there as she once again goes after Kamala Harris.

01:05:31.800 Like, she has made, her job right now is going after Harris to protect Biden.

01:05:37.840 Will that lock down the vice president nomination?

01:05:42.440 Will he be her, his selection?

01:05:45.760 It's a really interesting fit.

01:05:46.920 Will she be his selection?

01:05:47.680 I mean, look, she's a, a woman of color, which is the way you're supposed to say that now.

01:05:52.900 Yeah.

01:05:53.060 You can't say colored woman.

01:05:54.320 No, of course.

01:05:54.840 That would be hateful.

01:05:55.720 For some reason, a woman of color is so much better.

01:05:58.680 I don't understand it.

01:06:00.180 Good observation.

01:06:01.360 That's an interesting one.

01:06:02.440 Yeah.

01:06:02.840 Because like the worst thing you can say is just reversing the words.

01:06:05.880 Yes.

01:06:06.680 Yes.

01:06:07.080 Because it adds an E.D. at the end of color.

01:06:09.960 And then it becomes colored.

01:06:12.080 And you can't be colored.

01:06:14.940 But you can't be a person of color.

01:06:16.520 That's the way you're supposed to say it.

01:06:17.780 Yes, but you can't be a person of color.

01:06:18.620 What, what, what, what, uh, what ethnicity, is she, is she Polynesian?

01:06:23.580 Yeah.

01:06:23.980 Part Polynesian.

01:06:24.480 Yeah.

01:06:24.740 And she's from Hawaii.

01:06:25.980 Yeah.

01:06:26.380 And, you know, like, so let's put it this way.

01:06:29.080 There's a scale on the, on the Democratic Party of intersectionality.

01:06:32.400 You get points for each, each level.

01:06:34.060 So she's getting a point for the woman thing.

01:06:36.100 She's getting a point for the not white thing.

01:06:37.960 So she's got a couple things going for her there.

01:06:39.600 When you look at her, do you think of her as not white?

01:06:41.020 Because I certainly don't.

01:06:42.020 I don't know.

01:06:42.480 Oh, really?

01:06:42.760 I don't know that most people think of her as, as a minority.

01:06:46.720 She's usually talked about in those, uh, in those, in those groupings.

01:06:50.060 Um, but yeah, I think she has that, uh, you know, Polynesian background of some level.

01:06:54.980 But I, you know, what is it?

01:06:56.100 I don't care.

01:06:57.080 Yeah.

01:06:57.280 Who cares?

01:06:57.920 People on the right.

01:06:58.800 That's the thing.

01:06:59.300 I don't care.

01:06:59.960 We don't, we don't classify people that way all the time.

01:07:02.600 Well, that person is a person of blackness.

01:07:05.360 Wait, no.

01:07:05.800 A black person.

01:07:06.680 This has happened to us legitimately a dozen times since we've been doing the show and

01:07:10.580 that we'll come out and we'll be critical of someone and they'll come out and they'll

01:07:14.220 say, oh, you're just criticizing them because they're whatever, whatever it is, Jewish, Catholic,

01:07:20.220 uh, mixed race.

01:07:22.000 And, and we'll be like, wait a minute.

01:07:23.900 I thought, I thought that I thought it was just a white dude.

01:07:26.920 Right.

01:07:27.320 I, I, I, I, you know, it's so funny that people are so obsessed with these groupings and racial

01:07:33.540 identities and, and I mean, I just, I don't think about it.

01:07:39.020 And Glenn, go by that ancient thought process that, uh, uh, what was his name?

01:07:46.540 Uh, Dr.

01:07:47.280 Uh, uh, Demento.

01:07:50.020 No, no, it wasn't Dr. Demento.

01:07:51.480 No, it wasn't Dr. Demento.

01:07:52.940 Oh, gosh.

01:07:53.780 Oh, what a show that was.

01:07:55.160 Um, Dr.

01:07:56.480 Uh, launched the career of Weird Al Yankovic.

01:07:58.840 People don't remember that.

01:08:00.240 Pretty amazing.

01:08:01.220 So when Martin Luther King said judgment by the content of the character rather than color

01:08:06.220 of skin, I think we kind of took that to heart and we've been trying to do it.

01:08:09.220 Yeah.

01:08:09.540 It's not even a thing for me before all of this stuff where everybody demands that we notice

01:08:15.000 the color of skin now.

01:08:16.220 Yeah.

01:08:16.440 I think they demand that left insists that you notice the color of skin.

01:08:21.760 Right.

01:08:22.080 Like, cause I, you know, I think conservatives, especially modern day conservatives took Martin

01:08:28.180 Luther King literally said, yeah, that that's the goal.

01:08:31.360 That's right.

01:08:31.840 The goal is that's great.

01:08:32.940 You don't care anymore about color of skin.

01:08:34.660 That's the goal for socialists.

01:08:36.740 It's a midpoint to the goal.

01:08:38.240 And the goal is that all that reverse the old days are just reversed, um, where now it's

01:08:44.160 all about identity as long.

01:08:45.380 I mean, you listen to the people who talk, especially people who are like election analysts

01:08:49.280 talking about polls and you just hear them say things like, you know, it's really great

01:08:53.600 because you know, she's a, she's a black woman and that, and then she'll get black voters.

01:08:57.220 And you're just like, whoa, I don't talk to an individual African American person.

01:09:04.100 Are they voting for a black person because they're black?

01:09:07.500 I hope not.

01:09:09.000 Is a woman really voting for a woman, a female candidate because they're a woman?

01:09:13.760 No, you vote for them because they're the best candidate and you're supposed to not care

01:09:17.360 about all these little subgroups when you make your decisions.

01:09:20.760 That was the goal.

01:09:22.220 Yeah.

01:09:22.680 And I feel like conservatives largely are there.

01:09:26.100 You know, I, I, I, we looked at how many candidates.

01:09:30.100 I mean, this last field was as, as they would say for Republicans, a diverse field.

01:09:34.340 Right.

01:09:35.060 I mean, you had everything you had Hispanics, an Indian American, you had women, you had,

01:09:41.220 I mean, you had, you know, all the colors of the freaking rainbow, but there was never

01:09:45.920 a moment in which any of that entered my analysis of that election.

01:09:49.260 Like there's never, there's never more like, who do I want to vote for?

01:09:51.620 Oh, well, I don't know.

01:09:52.960 What kind of, what genitals does she have?

01:09:55.280 Do we know?

01:09:56.440 Cause I only make my decision based on genitals.

01:09:58.660 That's an important part of my election analysis.

01:10:00.580 That's just weird, man.

01:10:02.020 It is weird.

01:10:02.520 The pigment in your skin, what does that have to do with any of this?

01:10:05.680 It's who has the best policies, who would be the best leader, who actually cares about

01:10:09.100 the constitution?

01:10:10.300 And on the left, it's not like that.

01:10:12.180 It is really like, we can't have a white man again is, is like half of their voting

01:10:19.340 population who are taking one gender and one color in eliminating them.

01:10:24.460 How is that not racism?

01:10:26.720 That is what, that was the problem with racism.

01:10:29.340 It was the problem Martin Luther King was trying to solve.

01:10:33.200 Say, stop looking at the color of our skin and eliminating us.

01:10:37.320 And the response to that now is we got to eliminate those white people.

01:10:40.680 We can't have white people doing it.

01:10:42.900 That's bad.

01:10:44.300 So, you know, it's, you know, it's fascinating that it's come that far because it's gone

01:10:48.580 from the goal at the time race was way too big an issue.

01:10:53.520 The goal was to not make it an issue.

01:10:55.380 Now it's not that much of an issue.

01:10:56.620 And the goal is to make it into a big issue.

01:10:59.580 And it's like, I don't, I, how do you even follow this crap?

01:11:03.400 So Gabbard, I think would be an interesting choice for VP, but her history is, is strange

01:11:08.460 enough that I don't know.

01:11:09.620 Yeah.

01:11:09.940 I'm not sure she'd be.

01:11:11.260 Yeah.

01:11:11.400 And how does she help Biden in any way?

01:11:14.620 She really doesn't because, okay, you've gained Hawaii.

01:11:17.640 Yeah.

01:11:17.780 You're going to want Hawaii.

01:11:18.380 You're going to get that anyway.

01:11:19.420 Uh, so, well, I mean, I guess that's the, you know, someone who works this hard on behalf

01:11:27.540 of Biden during these debates though, is going to get rewarded if she, if he wins.

01:11:31.540 Yeah.

01:11:31.880 You would think that she, you know, she may very well not even want VP.

01:11:34.660 She may want secretary of defense.

01:11:35.900 That's an important issue to Tulsi Gabbard.

01:11:37.400 I mean, that is the, that is what she cares about.

01:11:39.060 And she does actually care.

01:11:40.220 She's not, she's not one of these candidates that's coming out with basically just trying

01:11:43.720 to get catchphrases and viral videos.

01:11:45.800 She actually cares about that.

01:11:47.380 And, you know, good for her.

01:11:48.320 It's why I think people look at her and see some authenticity that they don't see in

01:11:52.400 people like Cory Booker.

01:11:53.580 Yeah.

01:11:54.180 888-727-BECK.

01:11:56.120 It's Pat and Stu for Glenn on the Glenn Beck program.

01:11:59.220 You're listening to Glenn Beck.

01:12:03.660 888-727-BECK.

01:12:05.720 Pat and Stu for Glenn on the Glenn Beck program.

01:12:08.920 Another ridiculous zero tolerance policy sort of thing just happened in Michigan.

01:12:15.420 Michigan elementary school student was charged with aggravated assault for hitting a classmate

01:12:21.660 in the head with a, with a ball, a rubber ball during a game of dodgeball on the school

01:12:29.180 playground.

01:12:30.680 Aggravated assault for playing dodgeball and hitting somebody in the head.

01:12:34.320 What?

01:12:34.440 Isn't the function of dodgeball you're supposed to hit people with balls?

01:12:39.180 But, but yeah, but you're supposed to dodge the ball.

01:12:42.180 And so maybe you don't get hit anywhere, but the kid was obviously trying to kill him.

01:12:51.100 Really?

01:12:51.540 Yeah.

01:12:52.020 Try, try to kill him.

01:12:53.980 10-year-old Bryce Lindley, who was in fifth grade, learned he was being charged last week

01:12:59.040 for the incident.

01:13:00.740 At the time, he was suspended from school for one day.

01:13:05.320 His mom was a little upset.

01:13:06.700 I couldn't believe it.

01:13:07.320 This is a kid playing on the playground with his friends.

01:13:09.920 I mean, was it one of those things where like the kid wasn't looking and it came up and

01:13:13.380 threw the ball as hard as they could from two feet away?

01:13:15.820 That's, you could, you could argue a suspension for something like that, right?

01:13:19.320 Yeah, but not charges.

01:13:20.200 But not charges.

01:13:21.720 I mean, this is just, it's completely absurd tonight, but this is kind of where we are

01:13:26.380 right now.

01:13:26.960 Things are so stupid and chaotic.

01:13:29.540 I'm surprised dodgeball is allowed anywhere at this point.

01:13:31.800 I know it's, it has been banned in many, many places because it's just a vicious, brutal,

01:13:37.460 awful sport.

01:13:38.080 It's so fun though.

01:13:38.780 I used to love it.

01:13:39.580 I loved it.

01:13:40.040 I loved it.

01:13:40.500 How did we live?

01:13:41.340 How did we live through our childhoods when we all played dodgeball, went outside, rode bikes

01:13:46.400 without helmets?

01:13:47.440 As far as I know, we were the only two that did survive it.

01:13:50.900 Everyone else.

01:13:51.640 Everybody else is dead?

01:13:52.680 Yeah.

01:13:53.020 Oh, wow.

01:13:53.860 Okay.

01:13:54.160 That's so that's the pile of bodies.

01:13:56.140 I saw my way to work.

01:13:57.060 Yes.

01:13:57.480 Yeah.

01:13:57.740 Yeah.

01:13:57.880 You probably still haven't buried them from their childhood.

01:14:00.780 We need to take care of that.

01:14:02.520 Yeah.

01:14:02.640 Cause I mean, I really walk, we'd walk home from school.

01:14:06.120 You drive your bike home from school, like miles.

01:14:09.400 And your parents never worried you were going to get kidnapped by anybody.

01:14:12.200 Yeah, I know.

01:14:13.520 It's, I go back and forth on this.

01:14:14.960 I'm so hypocritical on this one.

01:14:16.340 Oh, me too.

01:14:16.840 So hypocritical.

01:14:17.740 Cause I was super protective with my kids.

01:14:19.420 Totally.

01:14:19.900 I like, I listened to Lenore Skenazy who started that organization, uh, let grow, which is about

01:14:25.520 like free range kids, the free range kids movement.

01:14:27.800 And she, you know, works hard to make sure parents don't get arrested for letting their

01:14:32.180 kids go to a playground by themselves.

01:14:33.700 I mean, it's like that ridiculous.

01:14:35.260 And every time I talk to her, I think to myself, she's 100% right on all of these arguments.

01:14:40.820 Like the crime, it's much less likely anything like this would happen.

01:14:45.380 You know, school shootings is a great example of this and nobody knows this, but school shootings,

01:14:49.780 I was much, much, much more likely to be shot in a school shooting when I was in

01:14:54.680 high school than I, than kids are today.

01:14:56.240 It's not even close.

01:14:57.200 It's like three times, I'm three times as likely to get shot in the 1990s.

01:15:00.100 And you're right, nobody knows that.

01:15:01.600 Nobody knows that.

01:15:02.580 It doesn't feel that way.

01:15:03.640 Even to me, I look at those numbers all the time and it doesn't feel that way.

01:15:06.780 Yep.

01:15:07.080 So we've, at some level, you know, seen danger go down so much, but at the same time, like

01:15:14.060 I, you know, my kids, like, I can't even imagine letting my kid walk home three miles

01:15:17.960 from school or ride his bike home three miles from school.

01:15:20.680 It seems completely nuts.

01:15:21.360 I did that all the time.

01:15:22.380 And you're right.

01:15:23.100 I wouldn't let my kids do that today.

01:15:25.700 How old are your kids?

01:15:26.540 Uh, well, the youngest is 19.

01:15:29.160 I still wouldn't let her do it.

01:15:30.880 It's true.

01:15:32.500 I mean, it really is weird.

01:15:34.480 And I know, I know in my brain, I know logically it doesn't make any sense.

01:15:38.920 Yeah.

01:15:39.100 But there's just that part of you that's like, uh, well, the second I turned my head, they're

01:15:43.540 going to get abducted.

01:15:44.760 That's what's going to happen.

01:15:45.740 The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

01:15:53.100 This is the Glenn Beck program.

01:15:55.600 With Pat and Stu, uh, you can check out my show, Pat Gray Unleashed, a weekday mornings.

01:16:01.380 It's from, uh, seven to nine Eastern, six to eight central.

01:16:05.080 I love that show.

01:16:05.760 On the blaze radio and TV network.

01:16:07.100 Or you can just check it out on a podcast, wherever those are available.

01:16:09.980 Yeah.

01:16:10.560 BlazeTV.com.

01:16:11.700 Uh, promo code is Glenn 20.

01:16:13.540 You can save 20 bucks right now.

01:16:14.780 See the Elon Omar special.

01:16:15.920 Oh, I can still save 20 bucks?

01:16:17.040 You can.

01:16:17.340 Yeah.

01:16:17.500 They extended it.

01:16:18.400 So pretty cool.

01:16:19.220 You can do that.

01:16:19.880 Okay.

01:16:20.040 Uh, and I will say there's a lot of great election, uh, debate analysis this week that

01:16:26.080 you can go check out.

01:16:28.200 It's, it's secondary in my mind because there was the return of something called the national

01:16:32.800 football league last night, which is really all I care about.

01:16:37.000 I love it.

01:16:37.640 I love it.

01:16:38.480 I mean, it's a meaningless preseason game.

01:16:40.660 It's the 12th string players, but I just loved seeing it on my television.

01:16:44.640 You know, I was channel surfing the other day and came across the, uh, Longhorn network,

01:16:51.400 you know, the Texas UT's, uh, television network.

01:16:55.140 And just to kill time, cause you know, you got to fill 24 seven worth of broadcasting on

01:17:01.800 a, uh, uh, channel that just really covers one Texas football and that's about it.

01:17:07.160 Yeah.

01:17:07.760 But they're doing a football game from 1976.

01:17:10.800 It was Texas, Arkansas and Keith Jackson was the play-by-play guy.

01:17:16.660 Oh yeah.

01:17:17.400 And you know, none of it is relevant to today.

01:17:20.760 I had no interest in either team, just the sound of the voice and the fact that it was

01:17:25.940 football.

01:17:26.520 I must've watched it for an hour and a half.

01:17:29.240 It's embarrassing.

01:17:30.620 It's so bizarre.

01:17:31.780 Yeah, it really is.

01:17:32.700 But I'm very, I mean, I, I like watching baseball.

01:17:35.960 I like watching basketball, but there's nothing like the, for me, you're not like football.

01:17:40.580 And for me, the national football league, I know you are a, uh, more of a college guy,

01:17:44.200 but still it's just the return of it.

01:17:46.100 It just feels good.

01:17:47.000 It feels right.

01:17:48.180 You know, especially when you have your options are watching Bernie Sanders or watching Kamala

01:17:53.280 Harris or Joe Biden.

01:17:55.300 That's not fun.

01:17:56.420 No, it is not.

01:17:57.180 They are trying to, to, to figure out, they're trying to sort something out here on the left.

01:18:00.480 And I remember how the Republican primaries of 2016 just ripped the conservative movement

01:18:08.860 apart, right?

01:18:10.060 Like there were people who absolutely freaking love Ted Cruz, absolutely freaking love Donald

01:18:15.340 Trump, absolutely loved Marco Rubio.

01:18:19.020 People had some mixed feelings about Jeb Bush.

01:18:21.720 There was passing interest in John Kasich at times, not by him, his family, his mom, his

01:18:30.520 mom was very much, uh, is a Kasich person.

01:18:33.400 Well, she was sort of divided, but, uh, she wound up, she did wind up voting for Trump,

01:18:37.440 but she was, she's thought about Kasich for a while, but there, I mean, there was a lot

01:18:41.680 of passion there.

01:18:42.460 When you go back and think about that field, you know, I mean, you had people who made,

01:18:47.600 you know, no impact in the race that were really good candidates.

01:18:51.220 I mean, Bobby Jindal is a guy who turned around a state, was an incredibly executive, he's

01:18:57.880 a Rhodes Scholar.

01:18:59.800 He, you know, introduces a very detailed, very good conservative healthcare alternative.

01:19:06.620 Uh, and basically was at 0% until he dropped out.

01:19:10.340 I mean, like that was a, it was a big field, but what was funny about that, uh, and it wasn't

01:19:15.100 funny at the time, is how much everyone basically hated each other that consult considered themselves

01:19:19.520 Republicans or conservatives.

01:19:20.740 Like everyone, everyone had their guy and hated all the other guys.

01:19:25.000 And now we're seeing that on the Democrats and it's a lot more fun.

01:19:28.820 It's, it's, it's like everyone who's a Kamala person hates all the Joe Biden people and all

01:19:33.820 the people who are Biden people hate the Kamala people and Cory Booker hates Biden.

01:19:39.520 If there's, and there's like three people who are Cory Booker people who are also not in

01:19:43.720 love with Biden, so Biden was asked on, uh, on TV this week about, is the party going too

01:19:51.300 far left?

01:19:52.580 Is it, is it, are we getting a little out of control here with the movement towards, let's

01:19:58.160 say, socialism?

01:19:59.320 Here's what he had to say.

01:20:00.580 Your party has changed as well.

01:20:02.600 Do you think it's moving too far to the left, even on immigration, where some of your fellow

01:20:06.040 Democratic candidates say that they want to decriminalize those who cross the border illegally?

01:20:10.660 Well, look, it's not about moving left to right.

01:20:12.960 I think I represent the party.

01:20:15.020 I think my views are where the vast majority of the Democratic Party are.

01:20:18.720 There's a lot of really, really good people that got elected who are really pushing the

01:20:23.220 envelope.

01:20:23.840 And it's good.

01:20:24.480 It's healthy to do that.

01:20:25.780 But the idea that they represent what the party is today does not comport with who gets

01:20:31.460 elected.

01:20:32.240 Does not comport with how we won last in 18.

01:20:35.260 It does not comport.

01:20:36.400 And so, but it's a total, it's a totally legitimate debate to have.

01:20:40.700 The one thing we have to focus on, and the one thing I agree with Corey on last night,

01:20:45.160 let's focus on what it is we can do together.

01:20:48.700 We are so different.

01:20:49.840 Every one of those people on that stage has a fundamentally different view than Barack,

01:20:54.440 excuse me, they talk about Barack, but they have a fundamentally different view than the

01:20:59.460 present president of the United States is.

01:21:01.080 And let's argue who has the best path forward to lead this country to greatness.

01:21:06.660 I mean, I think he's right on that, right?

01:21:08.540 I think other than it does not comport that he kept saying over and over again, he's probably

01:21:13.560 right.

01:21:13.920 Like he's probably is the, a better representative of the average Democratic voter than someone

01:21:18.660 like, you know, Bernie Sanders.

01:21:21.340 But the activists are the ones that are voting in the primary.

01:21:23.880 They have all the energy.

01:21:25.160 AOC is on TV.

01:21:26.120 They get all the attention.

01:21:27.060 They get all the attention.

01:21:28.140 Which makes it really tough for somebody like him.

01:21:30.000 Biden's no moderate, as we pointed out a million times.

01:21:32.580 But the fact that, you know, like the moderate position of only free college for two years

01:21:37.520 is the Joe Biden position.

01:21:38.940 That's not moderate.

01:21:40.320 That's like, that's something that Obama didn't, did he even suggest that?

01:21:43.940 Did Barack Obama, I don't remember him suggesting it.

01:21:47.100 No.

01:21:47.400 I mean, I'm sure they would have, he would have loved it.

01:21:49.620 But now the idea that if you don't go for four years of college for free and a free job

01:21:54.020 and a universal basic income and let, you know, people cross the border with no penalties

01:21:58.560 and give them free health care, if you're not that person, you're psychotically right.

01:22:02.520 You know, I just, I don't, I don't think that's the reality for the voters.

01:22:05.320 And it's probably why Biden's winning right now.

01:22:07.360 888-727-BECK.

01:22:12.180 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:22:14.560 Health concerns are a sad part of life.

01:22:17.020 I mean, it seems like there's always something that either hurts or bothers us health-wise,

01:22:20.980 right?

01:22:21.220 Well, if that's you, you really need to see what CBD products can do for your health.

01:23:17.220 Pat and Stu for Glenn on the Glenn Beck program.

01:23:28.400 888-727-BECK.

01:23:32.740 NFL.

01:23:34.420 You're back.

01:23:35.200 I'm back to the NFL.

01:23:36.000 I thought we were going to go to this Kamala Harris clip about employee-based insurance.

01:23:40.680 You don't want to.

01:23:41.120 No, no, we're not.

01:23:42.560 I've got that right here because she's trying to defend.

01:23:45.420 All right, I'll wait.

01:23:46.920 I'll wait for how long is this clip?

01:23:49.100 This one is a little over a minute.

01:23:50.660 Is she talking about the NFL?

01:23:52.440 She may discuss that at some point in here.

01:23:54.920 Let's listen.

01:23:55.440 Here's Kamala Harris talking about whether she's going to eliminate employer-based insurance.

01:23:59.960 One of the things that has been charged is that you will not be able to keep your private insurance.

01:24:05.580 If we get insurance through CNN, if GM workers get insurance through GM,

01:24:10.360 under your plan, they will not be able to keep that private insurance.

01:24:14.660 Is that true?

01:24:16.820 What the conversation was was about whether you can keep your private insurance through your employer.

01:24:24.380 My plan will separate your health care from your employer,

01:24:29.460 meaning your employer will no longer dictate the kind of health care you receive.

01:24:33.700 Under my plan of Medicare for all, private insurance companies will be able to provide coverage if they play by our rules.

01:24:43.140 And therefore, what that means in a very important way is that you don't have to be wed to your employer to keep the insurance you like and that you need.

01:24:53.640 I am decoupling it.

01:24:55.140 So there will be private insurance.

01:24:56.620 There will be private plans.

01:24:58.000 This is interesting.

01:24:58.640 But it will not be coupled with your employer so you can have choices about where you work and where you live.

01:25:04.900 And I understand the portability argument.

01:25:06.640 I already have that choice.

01:25:08.040 It is very important.

01:25:08.720 It is very important.

01:25:08.740 But what you have to convince voters of is that, yes, they may be able to keep a private insurance, but it's not their private insurance, correct?

01:25:19.580 No, they get to make the choice.

01:25:21.040 No, because you're basically allowing for a Medicare Advantage plan where insurers can enter that plan and they can choose it if they want to.

01:25:28.800 But if you're getting insurance from GM, from your employer, you will not be able to keep that, correct?

01:25:33.840 Right.

01:25:34.620 You will have 10 years to transition.

01:25:36.940 She's trying so hard.

01:25:37.600 The insurer who has partnered with GM is going to then have the opportunity to compete in my Medicare for All plan.

01:25:45.860 And so you as the consumer can choose under my Medicare for All plan to have a public plan, a government-sponsored plan, or a private plan.

01:25:53.600 She didn't say a single thing about the NFL, Stu.

01:25:55.960 I feel really deceived here.

01:25:58.320 No.

01:25:58.720 She didn't talk about the NFL at all.

01:25:59.820 Really?

01:26:00.220 No.

01:26:00.700 Maybe we cut the clip off too early.

01:26:02.440 I think she went into the Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver situation right after this.

01:26:06.180 Yeah, yeah.

01:26:06.800 Right after this.

01:26:07.340 Is Tyreek Hill hurt?

01:26:08.360 We don't know.

01:26:09.920 So, because this is a shade different than a Bernie plan, right?

01:26:13.980 Where she's saying, first of all, it's going to take 10 years to transition.

01:26:16.980 Second of all, what she's saying is, in theory, you could get a private insurance plan if you want, right?

01:26:22.360 But you cannot get it through your employer.

01:26:24.980 Now, the idea of separating employer from insurance is not a liberal idea.

01:26:31.020 It's an idea that I would say most economists on the left and the right think it would be good.

01:26:36.900 Plus, can I just point out, you can choose your insurance today because you don't have to take a job where an insurance plan you don't like is offered.

01:26:48.700 You don't have to take that job.

01:26:49.840 And you can refuse it.

01:26:50.560 You can refuse it.

01:26:51.360 It's just it's so much a better deal, right?

01:26:53.340 Like, you're going to because your employer is paying for part of it and they get a group discount rate.

01:26:59.000 So, everyone takes it.

01:27:00.360 Like, I because I am very friendly to the idea of having insurance separate from my employer.

01:27:06.240 However, the the insurance here is good.

01:27:08.500 So, I take it, you know, and I think that's what everybody does.

01:27:11.260 I think in a perfect world, this would be a good thing.

01:27:14.980 Like, the idea that you're tied to your employer with your insurance is actually not a thing that Kamala Harris is making up.

01:27:21.420 Conservative economists have been arguing for this forever.

01:27:23.940 They're just saying go to a free market system on the other side of that.

01:27:27.300 Yeah, she's saying you're going to allow competition state to state.

01:27:31.260 Yeah, and that's a big part of a lot of that stuff.

01:27:33.500 Yeah, and she's saying, OK, well, we're going to give everybody a government plan.

01:27:36.480 And then I guess if someone wants to come in and try to compete as a private plan, they will.

01:27:39.920 Her argument in her belief is what they will do is subsidize these plans so much.

01:27:44.560 No one will pick the private insurance and eventually private insurance goes away anyway.

01:27:47.900 Like, she's trying to do it a little bit through the back door where Bernie's just saying it.

01:27:52.960 He's just coming out and saying we're getting rid of it.

01:27:54.420 It's going to be illegal for you to have private insurance.

01:27:56.360 So there is a little bit of a shade, I suppose, of difference there.

01:28:00.300 But you just see these people try to struggle to get through and say exactly what's happening with their own plans.

01:28:07.380 She can't admit that health care is going away.

01:28:10.500 If you have it through GM, if you have it through CNN, you're not going to have it there anymore.

01:28:14.260 It's over.

01:28:15.700 And that is something that polls in the mid-20s nationwide, mid-20s.

01:28:20.180 And they don't want to admit it because they know how unpopular it is.

01:28:24.120 But that is what their plans will do.

01:28:26.820 Bernie Sanders was on as well.

01:28:29.080 And he's basically running a president-vice president thing with Warren.

01:28:34.500 They're just trying to figure out which one's first.

01:28:36.400 I don't think either one would name the other as their candidate.

01:28:38.840 But they're running essentially an alliance right now.

01:28:40.680 Like an old-school survivor alliance.

01:28:43.260 And they're working basically together to fend off all these attacks.

01:28:46.320 And all their policies sound almost exactly identical.

01:28:50.160 So CBS was asked, or asked Bernie,

01:28:53.020 can you explain what is the freaking difference between you and Elizabeth?

01:28:56.380 Listen.

01:28:57.140 At some point, you and Elizabeth Warren, as most pundits seem to indicate,

01:29:01.840 will make that next debate.

01:29:03.920 How will you differentiate yourself from her?

01:29:07.140 You're two progressives.

01:29:09.460 I'll tell you, I'll let you guys and the punditry and the American people make that decision.

01:29:13.640 All I can say, all I can say.

01:29:16.700 What is the single principle, what is the biggest difference between you and Senator Sanders?

01:29:21.200 It's not up to us.

01:29:21.760 You've got to draw the distinction, Senator.

01:29:23.680 No.

01:29:24.420 No?

01:29:25.100 No.

01:29:26.040 I have to tell the American people what I believe.

01:29:28.620 And I'm going to take on the greed of Wall Street, the drug companies, the insurance companies.

01:29:34.140 We are going to tell the fossil fuel industry that they cannot continue to destroy this planet

01:29:39.660 for their short-term profits.

01:29:41.100 Oh, I'm fascinated by this.

01:29:44.560 I am fascinated by this.

01:29:46.000 First of all, of course, he's got to draw distinctions.

01:29:47.660 I mean, if not, people are going to do it for you.

01:29:50.300 You know, she's going to wind up beating him in this because he's just, you know,

01:29:54.300 he's just so curmudgeonly and awful.

01:29:56.280 Terrible.

01:29:56.460 But beyond that, what they just, what he just described as his philosophy was to say, I think

01:30:02.660 it was four different things were really bad.

01:30:05.160 Those four things are basically the fundamental basis of our civilization.

01:30:09.620 Mm-hmm.

01:30:10.980 Fossil fuels.

01:30:12.220 Yes.

01:30:12.700 Right?

01:30:13.160 Yeah.

01:30:13.660 Medicine.

01:30:14.400 Right?

01:30:14.600 Healthcare.

01:30:15.360 Pharmacies.

01:30:15.560 Pharmaceuticals.

01:30:16.320 And health insurance.

01:30:17.820 And the last one was Wall Street.

01:30:19.060 And you might say, well, Wall Street's not the fundamental basis.

01:30:21.120 Well, it is.

01:30:21.540 It's the foundation of capitalism.

01:30:23.240 You know, the first stock was in the, you know, ever sold was in the 1600s back in the

01:30:29.960 Netherlands.

01:30:30.920 And that was the foundation of how capital gets moved around and eventually creates the

01:30:37.660 foundation of capitalism.

01:30:39.600 I mean, so Wall Street, while you can criticize things at all four of those groups, they are

01:30:45.060 the fundamental basis of our civilization if you eliminate, you know, things like faith,

01:30:49.920 which obviously are important to some, but not all.

01:30:51.540 But I mean, when it comes down to just human things, these are the greatest things that

01:30:56.220 have ever happened to us.

01:30:57.700 And their whole platform is just opposing them.

01:30:59.800 Yes.

01:31:00.160 They just demonize them.

01:31:01.360 That's all Sanders does.

01:31:03.480 That's all Warren does.

01:31:04.680 That's all Harris does.

01:31:05.840 That's what they do.

01:31:06.720 They just demonize the pillars of capitalism.

01:31:21.540 Health concerns are a sad part of life.

01:31:24.920 I mean, it seems like there's always something that either hurts or bothers us health-wise,

01:31:29.260 right?

01:31:29.840 Well, if that's you, you really need to see what CBD products can do for your health.

01:31:34.660 CBD may offer many of the health benefits of marijuana, but without the high.

01:32:57.000 Yeah, he takes a lot of them.

01:32:57.940 Yeah, he's out this week and next week, by the way.

01:33:01.420 Right.

01:33:01.980 This is his big summer break.

01:33:03.280 Actually, next week, he's not really on vacation.

01:33:05.380 He's going to Australia.

01:33:07.320 Oh, that's pretty big.

01:33:08.400 Yeah, that's the sex life thing, right?

01:33:10.280 Yeah, he's going on a tour of some local establishments.

01:33:13.360 See if he can find something.

01:33:14.140 No, I'm just saying.

01:33:15.580 Actually, they rescued some in Iraq.

01:33:20.040 One of the girls who they rescued was thought to be dead, apparently.

01:33:25.020 And the parents thought that she was dead.

01:33:27.940 Oh, wow.

01:33:28.440 And they found her and they're going to bring her home to their new home, Australia, which

01:33:33.260 is, again, created by the donations of this audience.

01:33:37.540 I don't mean Australia was, but I mean, the area where these refugees are living, you know,

01:33:43.800 all of this comes from, you know, large and generous donations of this audience with the Nazarene Fund.

01:33:51.080 And, you know, thousands of people have been rescued from really terrible circumstances.

01:33:54.720 So he's going to be down there.

01:33:55.800 And I know checking all that stuff out and doing, I mean, you know, this is something Glenn cares deeply about.

01:34:00.620 Obviously, if you listen to the show, you know that.

01:34:03.100 So he's going to be doing that next week.

01:34:06.080 We'll be on next week here as well.

01:34:08.780 And I'll be hosting TV.

01:34:10.740 And it's going to be a fun week.

01:34:12.240 We'll have fun.

01:34:13.460 The best thing is you just get to make fun of a lot of people.

01:34:15.740 And that's what we usually do.

01:34:16.620 Are you, have you, surely you've listened to the tape of Ronald Reagan talking to Richard Nixon back in, what was this, 1968-ish?

01:34:29.900 I think it was 71.

01:34:30.300 70, 71?

01:34:31.480 Yeah.

01:34:31.880 Something like that.

01:34:33.500 This is a little bit of a...

01:34:34.660 He calls people from an African nation.

01:34:39.260 He refers to them as monkeys, right, without any shoes on or whatever.

01:34:43.060 And it's, he's disparaging the UN and he's saying, we don't want to be subjected to all these people.

01:34:50.100 Yeah.

01:34:50.640 And so now...

01:34:51.420 Throw them out of the country.

01:34:52.200 Final confirmation that Reagan was the racist we all knew he was is essentially how this is being promoted.

01:34:57.820 You just don't want to believe it's true.

01:35:00.260 I know when I listened to it, I thought, okay, they've, you know, interpolated this in some way that isn't what he said.

01:35:06.460 But no, he did actually say it.

01:35:08.680 And it's, it's a tough comment.

01:35:10.260 I mean, that's, you can't defend it.

01:35:12.360 But no, it's the only one I know of.

01:35:16.100 Has, is there any evidence other than that that...

01:35:19.520 Yeah, Paul Kangor, who is a Reagan biographer, wrote about this and said, you know, look, this is not a good statement.

01:35:25.600 It is literally the only one he's ever found that was anything like it.

01:35:29.680 And he didn't.

01:35:30.480 He has, he's, he talks about how he has giant boxes filled with documents and statements titled Reagan on race.

01:35:39.000 Oh, wow.

01:35:39.500 And there is literally nothing.

01:35:41.900 So, I mean, so if you want to deep, you know, if you want to dive into it a little bit, first of all, if you can't judge someone by one word that they've made in 1971.

01:35:52.840 Right.

01:35:53.200 It's not, even if it's bad, you know, you try to look at the breadth of a person and realize what was their life really like.

01:36:00.260 You know, he was very good on these issues in a million other opportunities.

01:36:05.860 So it's hard to understand.

01:36:07.640 The other thing you can look at is, you know, he was talking to someone who was kind of a racist, right?

01:36:12.420 Richard Nixon, if you look through those tapes, he's making anti-Semitic comments and race, racially insensitive comments throughout.

01:36:19.140 You know, is it one of those things where he's, you know, you're in a room where people are making foul jokes and you make a foul joke?

01:36:26.700 Is it that type of thing?

01:36:28.000 Do they taint, and because of, you talk about one comment, as compared to the comments of LBJ that were practically endless up to 1964, and they ignore all of that.

01:36:39.060 I mean, he's an absolute virulent racist.

01:36:41.880 Yeah.

01:36:42.640 Margaret Sanger, they ignore all of her racism.

01:36:45.940 Horrific.

01:36:47.000 And so, they'll, and by the way, I, we just don't say enough how bad of a president LBJ was and that he may very well be our worst president.

01:36:55.900 Yeah, one of the worst.

01:36:57.020 Again, when you look at that debt number and you realize all of it, or at least two-thirds of it comes from him, you know, you remember that.

01:37:05.440 Because not only was he terrible as a president, but also an awful human being in a million different ways.

01:37:11.180 Like, this is not a good dude, and he gets a complete pass.

01:37:14.040 Reagan has one comment, bad.

01:37:16.520 And they'll beat him with it forever.

01:37:17.760 Yep.

01:37:18.200 Yeah.

01:37:19.840 888-727-BECK.

01:37:22.040 It's Pat and Stu for Glenn on the Glenn Beck program this week and next week as well.

01:37:27.020 And because Glenn's not here, there's extra room in the parking lot, a lot of space for people to park in places they don't usually,

01:37:35.440 because when Glenn's not here, about three-quarters of the building doesn't show up to work.

01:37:40.380 It's about right.

01:37:41.080 It's an interesting phenomenon.

01:37:42.160 It is an interesting phenomenon.

01:37:42.960 But there was, right next to my car the other day was parked one of those, one of the smart cars.

01:37:49.100 Oh, jeez.

01:37:49.900 Those teeny little things that look like a Yugo vomited, and that's what came out.

01:37:54.100 What a useless little crap can that is.

01:37:57.400 Why would you ever, ever buy one of those?

01:38:01.340 I guess you have to be wholeheartedly into global warming, right?

01:38:05.000 You've got to think.

01:38:05.740 Yeah, but it doesn't even help that problem.

01:38:07.740 And it doesn't save you money either.

01:38:09.560 It's gas-powered, isn't it?

01:38:10.120 It's gas-powered.

01:38:11.020 And also, you know, it does get good gas mileage.

01:38:13.940 But I think, if I remember right, you have to use premium gasoline.

01:38:18.840 Oh, really?

01:38:19.660 Yeah, for this little go-kart.

01:38:21.800 What?

01:38:22.460 You've got to use premium.

01:38:23.080 It's a glorified skateboard, really.

01:38:25.260 So you can save gas, but you're paying more for the gas you need to use.

01:38:28.120 The skateboard with a dome on it.

01:38:29.680 Yeah.

01:38:32.800 It's so, you know, the most annoying thing about those cars is you can't tell when they're

01:38:37.600 in parking spots, when you're pulling up.

01:38:39.900 That's true.

01:38:40.460 So you think you have a spot.

01:38:41.120 Yeah, and then all of a sudden, ah!

01:38:42.620 Oh.

01:38:43.900 Every time I see one, I'm so tempted to just gun it.

01:38:46.040 It's the other half of a Gremlin.

01:38:47.420 Remember the old Gremlin?

01:38:48.420 It looked like it was cut in half.

01:38:49.760 Yeah.

01:38:50.420 The other half is a smart car.

01:38:51.980 It's probably true.

01:38:52.900 We just found it.

01:38:53.740 I just, it's so frustrating when you turn that corner and you're about to pull in.

01:38:56.800 You're like, I got a great smart car.

01:38:58.800 Smart car!

01:38:59.640 Yes.

01:39:00.540 There are so many irritating things about that car.

01:39:04.840 Who makes that?

01:39:05.820 Any idea?

01:39:07.900 Terrible vehicle.

01:39:08.940 Is it under company, like a, is it something related to like a Mercedes or something?

01:39:14.320 Isn't it?

01:39:15.460 Mercedes?

01:39:15.860 It's like, I don't think it is a Mercedes, but it is like, I think owned maybe by Mercedes?

01:39:21.180 I'd have to remember.

01:39:22.220 I don't know.

01:39:22.680 We should Google that.

01:39:23.540 That's that, but that is a, is a great sign.

01:39:25.480 Did that spring from the Obama administration?

01:39:28.180 No.

01:39:28.580 Or was that before?

01:39:29.700 Remember, it was funny going back and you look at those days late in the 2007, 2008,

01:39:34.900 you know, as we're getting into that election, one of the big issues was gas prices.

01:39:38.740 Yeah.

01:39:39.220 So, gas prices were a huge thing and people were looking for ways not to save the planet,

01:39:44.780 but to save money on gas.

01:39:46.520 And that was kind of the criticism of the smart car at the time.

01:39:49.180 You, first of all, you have to be folded up like a, you know, like your piece of paper

01:39:54.380 to fit into it.

01:39:55.880 And then you're not even getting the benefits really of saving money because you're paying,

01:40:00.100 you know, 40 cents more than regular because you have to put premium in the freaking car

01:40:04.100 so it can go 18 miles an hour.

01:40:05.800 Do you really have to put premium in it?

01:40:07.760 Why would, I wonder why that would be the case.

01:40:10.120 No, I don't know if people actually do it.

01:40:13.020 I mean, you know, my car says it's supposed to have premium in it, but like I want it

01:40:16.680 to go fast, right?

01:40:17.980 Like, so I'm a sucker for the marketing.

01:40:19.860 Whether it's true or not, I put premium in there.

01:40:22.640 If you're a smart car though, that's the last thing you're thinking of, right?

01:40:25.180 You're buying a smart car.

01:40:26.040 You're not like, oh, I got to get this thing to go 0 to 60 in 18 seconds instead of 19.

01:40:29.320 It gets 40 miles per gallon, which is good, but that's not exceptional.

01:40:33.580 No, it's not even close to like a, you know, a hybrid or a plug-in hybrid or anything like

01:40:37.620 that.

01:40:38.300 It's just like, I want less space is your argument for it.

01:40:42.400 I guess like if you were in a city where there's a lot of parallel parking, maybe you're making

01:40:47.460 deliveries in a city, like you'd see a use for it in some capacity, but.

01:40:52.860 But if you ran into a squirrel, you'd be dead.

01:40:55.620 Oh yeah, you're dead.

01:40:56.480 You die right away.

01:40:57.060 That would total your car.

01:40:57.580 A squirrel would total that car.

01:40:59.160 A squirrel's child gets you, you're flipping the car for sure.

01:41:02.560 Maybe you live, but you're flipping it.

01:41:04.160 Yeah.

01:41:04.480 And I don't even know that you live through that.

01:41:06.560 You'd be in critical condition.

01:41:07.860 There's no question.

01:41:08.400 There's no question about that.

01:41:09.420 No doubt.

01:41:11.260 It really is.

01:41:12.260 And then it goes back to the, you know, Barack Obama famously said we were going to have

01:41:15.680 like millions and millions of electric cars on the road by, I want to say it was 2016

01:41:19.380 or 2018.

01:41:20.320 And he missed this goal by so much.

01:41:22.820 It was hilarious.

01:41:23.880 By like infinity?

01:41:24.760 Yeah.

01:41:24.960 It was basically like infinity.

01:41:26.000 He missed the goal by infinity.

01:41:26.920 Like they had cars that are like, we think there'll be 65,000 Fiskers on the road by 2020.

01:41:32.160 And like Fisker went out of business like a week later.

01:41:35.640 I remember that.

01:41:36.860 That was so great.

01:41:37.720 There was a bunch of those like startup electric car brands that just all died at the same

01:41:42.220 time.

01:41:42.820 Yeah.

01:41:43.140 It was basically the Solyndra approach to economics where you give a bunch of money and tax incentives

01:41:49.060 to companies that go out of business a week later.

01:41:51.880 It's not normally a good idea to do.

01:41:54.340 Barack tried it though.

01:41:55.180 That did not affect him with Democrats though.

01:41:57.180 And that's one of the interesting things about this week with these debates is the Democrats

01:42:01.980 are becoming critical of Biden and they have to say bad things about Obama.

01:42:07.660 But is that a good idea in a Democratic primary?

01:42:10.140 Let me give you some of these stats on polling.

01:42:13.240 Democrats approval rating of Barack Obama currently is at 95 to 4.

01:42:19.600 95 to 4% unfavorable.

01:42:26.400 Are you playing to the AOC side too much when you're, you're trying to play up to AOC and

01:42:31.980 the squad?

01:42:33.080 Meanwhile, she's got about 20% approval.

01:42:35.240 Right.

01:42:35.760 I don't know what it is among Democrats, but it's, it's, it's higher than 20 probably among

01:42:40.000 black voters.

01:42:41.700 These are Democrat or Democrat leaning black voters.

01:42:46.100 Barack Obama has some issues there.

01:42:49.560 He's only 99% approved.

01:42:52.340 Now on the other side of that, of course, is a big portion of our society, which is 0% unfavorable.

01:43:00.220 So it's 99 to 0, but 1% has not made their mind up yet.

01:43:04.500 So there's literally no one shows up as disapproving of Barack Obama.

01:43:09.280 And this is why I think one of the reasons Biden does so well in South Carolina right now,

01:43:13.320 because it's the first state with a large minority population voting in the primary.

01:43:17.640 And these other candidates who are coming out bashing Joe Biden and Barack Obama, it's

01:43:22.100 not going to work well for them.

01:43:23.500 The other part of this, which is interesting is I think once again, the Democrats have lost

01:43:27.880 sight as to how important and how liberal the average Democratic voter is among total

01:43:35.980 voters in the states that are made up.

01:43:39.240 And Harry Enten has a great breakdown of this between Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin.

01:43:43.600 Here's the states that are going to turn the election.

01:43:45.120 Most likely Barack Obama among all voters, including Republicans is, is, has a 57% favorability.

01:43:51.820 So he's 5743 in those states.

01:43:54.340 He's a, he's a popular president, at least in his, in his exit.

01:44:00.680 Would you rather, again, this is Democrats, would you rather have building on top of Obamacare

01:44:07.300 or would you rather replace it for Medicare for all?

01:44:10.340 55% say Obamacare, 39% Medicare for all.

01:44:14.480 So 16 point lead for the more conservative quote unquote of those two policies.

01:44:20.000 Neither one is conservative.

01:44:21.480 Should point that out too.

01:44:22.460 Those are, if you know those lessons, if you're in this world, why wouldn't you feel comfortable

01:44:28.200 saying you're a moderate yet?

01:44:29.480 Joe Biden is out there running away from that moniker.

01:44:33.300 Yeah.

01:44:33.840 Right.

01:44:34.200 We have a clip from his press conference yesterday.

01:44:36.820 This is audio.

01:44:37.560 We just got in from yesterday.

01:44:40.080 Biden talking about was, was Obamacare a conservative policy?

01:44:45.360 Was it a moderate policy?

01:44:46.780 Was it, I don't know, maybe a socialist policy?

01:44:49.660 Listen, but here's the deal.

01:44:51.840 There's nothing moderate about what Barack did in Obamacare.

01:44:55.400 No president had come close and they tried and they tried and they tried seven presidents.

01:45:02.880 This guy did an incredible thing.

01:45:05.060 In addition to that, he covered a hundred million people who had preexisting conditions.

01:45:11.180 He allowed kids to stay in their parents' policies until they're 26 years old.

01:45:15.640 He covered 20 million more people.

01:45:17.680 We tried to get the Medicare option added to it.

01:45:21.440 We couldn't get it done.

01:45:22.520 I will get it done this time because the people have realized what it's about.

01:45:26.540 They figured it out.

01:45:29.140 Fantastic.

01:45:30.220 Now, remember, this was sold to us, the American people, as a moderate approach.

01:45:35.960 Common sense reform.

01:45:36.500 Common sense approach.

01:45:37.580 That's all it is.

01:45:37.840 It was originated with a heritage foundation and it was basically Romneycare.

01:45:43.780 This is, we're almost passing a Republican policy here.

01:45:47.300 And we said all along, no, this is the first step to socialize medicine.

01:45:51.420 That's what this is.

01:45:52.840 They're trying to bring about single payer universal health care.

01:45:55.840 No, that's a conspiracy.

01:45:57.680 You're a conspiracy theorist.

01:45:59.600 And we said this is a massive move towards progressivism.

01:46:03.560 There's nothing moderate about it.

01:46:05.380 And now you hear Joe Biden saying the same exact thing.

01:46:08.400 It's amazing.

01:46:08.900 We played the clip over and over again with a guy from Tides Foundation where, you know,

01:46:11.980 he lays this out in uncomfortable detail.

01:46:15.120 Someone once said to me, this is a Trojan horse for a single payer.

01:46:17.440 And I said, well, it's not a Trojan horse, right?

01:46:19.180 It's just right there.

01:46:20.140 I'm telling you, we're going to get there.

01:46:22.760 We're going to get there.

01:46:23.580 So in other words, between a capitalist system and single payer universal health care,

01:46:30.120 there had to be a transitional step.

01:46:32.220 And that was Obamacare.

01:46:33.580 And he was admitting it.

01:46:35.100 He's saying, look, yes, that's the goal.

01:46:37.380 But the goal is just right out there.

01:46:39.100 Everybody knows it.

01:46:40.540 There's no reason to deny it.

01:46:42.620 Yeah.

01:46:42.980 This was one of the architects of the plan.

01:46:44.940 Yes.

01:46:45.300 And if you listen closely enough to these debates, if you can take it, if you can handle how awful it is.

01:46:52.200 I can't.

01:46:53.140 But thank you.

01:46:53.580 It's really difficult.

01:46:54.320 But if you can take it and you listen to the quote unquote moderates pushing back on single payer health care.

01:47:00.340 Why didn't you put a quote in the quotation marks?

01:47:02.100 You quote unquote, so you left it blank.

01:47:04.000 So there is no quote there.

01:47:05.660 The quote moderates end quote that were in the debate.

01:47:09.960 Yeah.

01:47:10.500 If you listen to what they're saying, what they're saying is I'm more moderate because I think we should try to do it slowly so people don't notice.

01:47:19.460 It is not.

01:47:20.420 You know what would be really bad for our society is socialized medicine.

01:47:23.140 It is not the argument.

01:47:24.160 The argument is we got to be realistic about what we can get done right now.

01:47:28.400 People need help right now.

01:47:29.400 Let's get what we can get done right now.

01:47:30.780 We can always expand it later.

01:47:32.400 But get something done now instead of shooting for the moon and getting nothing.

01:47:35.340 That is the that is the argument in the Democratic Party.

01:47:38.960 It is not socialism versus capitalism.

01:47:41.400 It is socialism versus slower socialism.

01:47:45.320 Yeah.

01:47:45.400 They're not even saying necessarily even the Delaney's of the world and the Hickenloopers are necessarily even saying socialism is bad.

01:47:52.740 Let's not go down that road.

01:47:54.140 They're saying we'll lose to Trump if we if we admit we're exactly because they will say socialism is bad because it's a bad approach.

01:48:02.700 It's just going to scare off voters.

01:48:03.880 That's all they're worried about because it's bad.

01:48:05.780 Yeah.

01:48:05.960 Not because they don't like that system or wouldn't like to go to that.

01:48:08.980 We got to go slower.

01:48:09.980 I mean they're so radical now.

01:48:11.680 So extreme in the Democrat Party.

01:48:13.160 This goes back to the turn of the century.

01:48:14.480 It was the argument between progressives and you know revolutionaries.

01:48:17.560 Is it is it revolutionary or evolutionary?

01:48:19.520 And you know what was it Van Jones said?

01:48:22.240 I've dropped the radical means for the radical ends.

01:48:25.260 Right.

01:48:25.640 Right.

01:48:26.420 And that is true.

01:48:27.860 It's it's the it's only a question of speed.

01:48:32.120 Even these people they say are moderates are saying we want to get to these social programs eventually.

01:48:38.220 We want to get there but we need to take step by step and be methodical.

01:48:41.920 And I think there's a good argument for that because the American people have shown over and over again that once you pass one of these programs and you get it in there for a few years, they it becomes part of them.

01:48:52.720 You know, it becomes part of them.

01:48:54.780 Yeah, there's no getting rid of it.

01:48:56.000 Medicare is a great example of this.

01:48:57.840 Social Security is a good example of it right now.

01:49:01.600 Obamacare is becoming a good example of it.

01:49:04.180 People are the approval rates are up.

01:49:05.920 You're seeing Republican governors now embrace the Medicaid expansions that initially that they opposed and initially were and were ruled, by the way, unconstitutional the way they tried to do it.

01:49:18.740 That's a kind of a big deal.

01:49:20.920 Kind of.

01:49:21.760 And, you know, they know if we can take a baby step, we'll never turn back.

01:49:26.540 It's like with the budget when they're like, oh, we're going to add 100 billion dollars of spending.

01:49:29.420 Well, that's not 100 billion dollars of spending.

01:49:30.840 When you add 100 billion dollars of spending, the next year, the budget is calculated off of that new higher number.

01:49:37.680 So you've created that 100 billion dollars of spending for every year in the future.

01:49:41.580 It's not just one year of 100 billion dollars.

01:49:43.300 It's one year times infinity.

01:49:45.520 100 billion dollars.

01:49:47.180 It's nuts.

01:49:48.120 It is.

01:49:48.700 And, you know, it continues to happen.

01:49:51.260 And that's why this approach is effective.

01:49:53.100 It's why progressivism has worked to really transform our country.

01:49:56.960 And we're moving past it now.

01:49:58.360 Now they're just admitting it.

01:49:59.180 I don't know if that's going to work with voters, but it's terrifying because if it does, we are we are an entirely different nation.

01:50:06.900 Pat and Stu for Glenn on the Glenn Beck program.

01:50:08.760 Triple eight, seven, two, seven, B.

01:50:10.160 E. C. K.

01:50:10.520 What's your favorite fast food restaurant?

01:50:12.300 Would you say?

01:50:14.540 I'd probably go with Taco Bell.

01:50:16.720 I freaking love.

01:50:17.520 Oh, I love Taco Bell, too.

01:50:18.920 Oh, my God.

01:50:19.320 I love it.

01:50:19.720 I love it.

01:50:20.760 You know, it is a it has.

01:50:23.300 It's just so freaking good.

01:50:24.620 We had the fries.

01:50:25.560 They have a new.

01:50:26.260 What are they called?

01:50:26.680 Did that last week, right?

01:50:27.720 The spicy fries disaster they gave.

01:50:30.760 I just love it.

01:50:31.500 I mean, it's not one of those things you can eat in any sort of rational way.

01:50:36.240 Whenever I eat there, I just I mean, I eat way too much and I just love it so much.

01:50:40.280 But then I just feel terrible afterwards.

01:50:42.180 Yeah.

01:50:42.440 Or you can go to you can have McDonald's breakfast and eat something that's relatively OK.

01:50:46.380 I can't do that at Taco Bell.

01:50:47.500 I'm not.

01:50:47.820 I can't.

01:50:48.300 I can't.

01:50:48.760 I can't.

01:50:49.100 Pull it off.

01:50:51.040 Food too tasty.

01:50:52.320 Food too tasty.

01:50:53.160 Food too tasty.

01:50:54.460 I have there.

01:50:55.480 By the way, Burger King is going to have the Impossible Whopper in stores next week.

01:51:00.040 By Thursday, right?

01:51:00.480 By next Thursday.

01:51:01.340 Yes.

01:51:01.640 So we did a taste test last time with the Impossible Burger.

01:51:04.160 Glenn and I couldn't tell.

01:51:05.680 We couldn't tell the difference.

01:51:06.620 Incredible.

01:51:07.340 Amazing.

01:51:07.840 Between meat and the plant based pretend meat.

01:51:11.100 So maybe we'll try that again next week.

01:51:12.500 Yeah.

01:51:12.640 But in this survey of customer loyalty, Chick-fil-A turned out to be America's favorite restaurant.

01:51:20.600 And I would.

01:51:21.140 I mean, there's a lot there.

01:51:22.720 To me.

01:51:23.020 Yeah.

01:51:23.420 And they have by far the best customer service.

01:51:26.780 They have really good fries.

01:51:27.620 By far the most delicious milkshakes.

01:51:29.760 Really?

01:51:30.140 Right.

01:51:30.660 Would you say they have the best milkshakes?

01:51:31.760 Oh, I think they are.

01:51:32.360 Yeah, I love them.

01:51:33.120 You don't love their milkshakes?

01:51:34.320 Yeah, you should try it.

01:51:35.320 I never.

01:51:36.000 I wouldn't say I distinguish them.

01:51:36.920 Put it to the test.

01:51:37.880 Yeah.

01:51:38.140 Go try it out.

01:51:38.940 They had a peach milkshake that I saw on the menu recently.

01:51:42.240 And I was like, that sounds delicious.

01:51:44.880 Yeah.

01:51:45.600 Interesting.

01:51:46.920 What else is on the list?

01:51:47.960 In-N-Out holds the top spot in burger loyalty.

01:51:53.140 And they scored 73% for staff friendliness.

01:51:57.560 Five Guys won the category in food quality and speed.

01:52:03.500 Five Guys in In-N-Out are pretty similar to me.

01:52:06.280 I've only been to Five Guys, I think, once.

01:52:08.320 The best thing about Five Guys is they give you fries.

01:52:12.240 And they intentionally give you too many to fit in the container.

01:52:14.820 And they all fall in the bag.

01:52:16.020 Yeah.

01:52:16.240 That's like their policy.

01:52:17.480 I like that.

01:52:18.040 That's a good policy.

01:52:18.520 Yeah, it is.

01:52:19.060 Because you're like, oh, crap.

01:52:19.680 I'm out of fries.

01:52:20.260 No, there's 100 more.

01:52:21.020 Oh, I've got like 30 more.

01:52:22.140 Yeah.

01:52:22.680 Yeah.

01:52:23.000 Healthy.

01:52:23.360 Well, between 30 and 100.

01:52:24.720 I didn't count specifically.

01:52:26.500 So I'm not sure how many there were.

01:52:28.980 But they don't serve milkshakes.

01:52:30.940 So I think it's a communist establishment.

01:52:32.980 Oh, okay.

01:52:33.340 And I can't frequent it.

01:52:35.320 Let's see.

01:52:35.640 In the Mexican food category, Chipotle beat up Moe's.

01:52:39.080 Now, I've never been to Moe's Southwest Grill.

01:52:40.820 Moe's is good.

01:52:41.380 Are you familiar?

01:52:42.020 I'm not a huge Chipotle guy.

01:52:43.480 Moe's is good, though.

01:52:44.200 They have them in the Northeast for sure.

01:52:46.700 And then Papa John's for pizza.

01:52:47.700 Where's Taco Bell?

01:52:50.120 Like, not in the top five even.

01:52:52.760 Taco Bell is America.

01:52:54.480 And I don't care what you say.

01:52:55.540 I don't care.

01:52:55.960 Oh, it's Mexican food.

01:52:56.900 I know it's not.

01:52:57.540 It's American food.

01:52:58.720 We've taken it over.

01:53:04.080 You're listening to Glenn Beck.
