00:00:57.980 And going through the process that we've gone through the last few years when we've seen everything from supply chains to inflation and everything else, jobs being lost.

00:01:08.080 American Giant is someone, they're a company that believes in the greatness of America.

00:01:12.540 And they, you know, as we celebrate our independence this month, you know, it's a great time to think about the vision, the craftsmanship, the determination of American Giant.

00:02:44.360 It is Pat and Stu for Glenn.

00:02:52.620 888-727-BECK.

00:02:55.940 I guess we've got some, we have some Nancy Pelosi news coming up here.

00:03:01.180 We sure do.

00:03:02.120 I can't wait.

00:03:03.640 But I'm going to have to.

00:03:04.960 But just 60 seconds.

00:03:06.560 We'll get to it coming up.

00:03:07.360 The next time you're just standing somewhere in your home, do something for me here for

00:03:14.760 a second.

00:03:15.180 Look around.

00:03:15.620 Think to yourself, what if I put this home on the market?

00:03:17.780 What if I put it on the market?

00:03:18.720 What would I get for it?

00:03:19.820 What would I need to get ready?

00:03:21.520 Well, once you've calmed down from the panic attack after realizing that the answer is so

00:03:25.160 much stuff, realize a simple fact.

00:03:27.620 What you need is an actual expert here.

00:03:29.080 You need a real estate agent that you can trust, an agent that is going to know the people

00:03:33.620 he or she trusts, do all those things.

00:03:36.440 They know someone who is going to do it right the first time, and they know whether you should

00:03:40.280 do it or not.

00:03:40.960 I have a relative who wants to, thinking about selling a house, and I'm like, I just can't.

00:03:44.680 I have too many things to do in this house.

00:03:46.400 And we just keep saying, or don't do any of it.

00:03:49.860 Don't do one bit of it.

00:03:51.320 Just get out of the house.

00:03:54.180 But you know, sometimes people don't understand that.

00:03:56.300 I will say, a real estate agent that you can trust, someone who knows the market can help

00:04:00.160 you with those decisions, whether you're planning to move or even just to have questions, check

00:04:03.960 them out.

00:04:04.820 Realestateagentsitrust.com.

00:04:05.900 The name kind of says it all.

00:04:07.420 This is a free service to you.

00:04:09.700 Check it out now.

00:04:11.600 Realestateagentsitrust.com.

00:04:16.320 Yeah, just to follow up on that a bit, we were going to remodel a lot of our house.

00:04:21.840 And our realtor said, no.

00:04:24.340 Don't do it, right?

00:04:24.900 Don't do it.

00:04:25.400 Don't do it.

00:04:26.340 You won't get your money back out of it.

00:04:28.220 She did recommend, because we had, you know, countertops from 2008.

00:04:32.880 So we did upgrade that.

00:04:34.200 We upgraded countertops, replaced carpeting where our kids had destroyed carpeting.

00:04:39.860 And then that was it.

00:04:41.240 That was it.

00:04:41.800 That's it.

00:04:42.200 Saved us, you know, a lot.

00:04:43.800 A fortune.

00:04:44.440 A lot.

00:04:45.140 And you wind up realizing you're only getting, if you get lucky, you get 70% of your money

00:04:49.040 back when you do these things.

00:04:50.200 Exactly.

00:04:50.480 So they've sometimes make sense, you know, a lot of times when you are going to live

00:04:55.200 there and enjoy them for multiple years, right?

00:04:57.060 Right.

00:04:57.280 But when you're just going to do it and then sell it, and you might not have the same taste

00:05:00.800 as the next person wanting to buy it.

00:05:03.080 That's maybe the most critical part, because they want their touches.

00:05:06.740 They want their vision for the house.

00:05:08.820 So let them have it.

00:05:09.620 Yeah.

00:05:09.980 Let them do it.

00:05:10.520 We got full asking price.

00:05:12.340 Congratulations.

00:05:13.040 That's awesome.

00:05:13.660 And this just happened, right?

00:05:14.740 Just happened.

00:05:15.460 Wow.

00:05:15.900 We sold the house in a week, which was nice.

00:05:17.840 Really?

00:05:18.340 Yeah.

00:05:18.560 Because, I mean, you hear the market's tough, the interest rates are high.

00:05:21.880 But you need a good realtor.

00:05:22.800 Prices have gone up.

00:05:23.240 That's the thing.

00:05:24.040 So you've got the realtor situation.

00:05:26.120 Not to mention, you know, you have a little bit of an advantage doing this in Texas.

00:05:30.600 That's true.

00:05:31.600 Yeah.

00:05:31.780 One of the fastest growing areas in the country.

00:05:35.000 Yeah.

00:05:35.120 And Dallas in particular, this area has been, you know, very hot for real estate.

00:05:39.080 But there are other areas around the country where that's true.

00:05:41.660 It's just, it's easier in Texas probably to do this.

00:05:44.180 Right, right.

00:05:44.480 So congratulations.

00:05:45.480 I will say, maybe we can get a real estate agent that Joe Biden trusts as he moves out

00:05:49.660 of the White House come in January.

00:05:51.200 Oh, I can't wait.

00:05:52.140 I will pay for the move.

00:05:53.700 Really?

00:05:54.100 Yes.

00:05:55.000 If he moves out of the White House, and I'll pay even more if he'll move out early,

00:06:01.720 because that would be awesome.

00:06:04.040 Um, but yeah, I'll, I'll do a GoFundMe page, whatever it takes to help him get, you know,

00:06:10.040 the Mayflower truck in front of the 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

00:06:13.500 That is sweet.

00:06:14.140 Yeah.

00:06:14.540 That, you're just a sweet gentleman.

00:06:15.800 Just a nice guy, right?

00:06:17.220 Yeah.

00:06:17.560 A lot of people don't understand that.

00:06:18.940 Partisan politics get in the way.

00:06:20.680 Not with Pat Gray.

00:06:21.520 Not in this case.

00:06:22.340 He will make sure Joe Biden gets out of that house, even if he wants to leave a little

00:06:26.600 early.

00:06:27.160 Yes.

00:06:27.660 You know?

00:06:28.120 Yeah.

00:06:28.380 We'll get him right back to Delaware.

00:06:29.800 Wow.

00:06:30.400 Yeah.

00:06:30.560 That's great.

00:06:31.040 We're at this Corvette.

00:06:32.180 Mm-hmm.

00:06:32.640 And, uh, you know, his ice cream parlors.

00:06:35.840 Is the vet parked at Rehoboth Beach, or is it in Wilmington?

00:06:40.160 That's what I don't know.

00:06:41.140 What's wrong with Beach, I think?

00:06:42.220 Is it?

00:06:42.480 I could be wrong on that, but it's...

00:06:44.040 Wherever it is, he can go there, you know?

00:06:46.580 Enjoy it.

00:06:47.540 It's been interesting to watch the reaction to the last couple of days where, if you remember,

00:06:54.300 right, and maybe I misunderstood this, because it's possible, Pat.

00:06:57.740 Like, there's so much news going on.

00:06:59.040 Sometimes you hear things and you don't fully get what's going on.

00:07:02.540 Mm-hmm.

00:07:03.260 My understanding was we did this show on Monday, and one of the first things we did on Monday

00:07:07.900 was to read a letter from Joe Biden, where he very clearly indicated he was staying in

00:07:15.300 the race.

00:07:15.940 Yep.

00:07:16.140 Right?

00:07:16.420 That happened, right?

00:07:17.140 That was a thing.

00:07:17.940 Mm-hmm.

00:07:18.140 We talked about that.

00:07:18.820 That was a thing.

00:07:19.480 Then we played audio.

00:07:21.080 We didn't really get through a lot of it, but we got through some audio from the Joe Scarborough

00:07:24.580 experience on MSNBC, where the, if I remember right, the whole tone of that was Joe Biden

00:07:32.660 saying, hey, I'm in this race.

00:07:35.620 I'm not going anywhere.

00:07:36.800 I'm the nominee.

00:07:38.700 I won the primary.

00:07:40.140 The debates you're all complaining about, I was on stage for it because I was the nominee.

00:07:44.860 That's why.

00:07:45.780 So it's my nomination.

00:07:47.320 Mm-hmm.

00:07:47.720 I'm staying.

00:07:49.480 No more questions about it.

00:07:50.960 Right?

00:07:51.120 That was-

00:07:51.580 Yeah, he made it pretty clear.

00:07:52.920 Right.

00:07:53.480 Yeah.

00:07:54.480 I don't know if Nancy Pelosi heard the show on Monday, Pat.

00:07:57.080 I hate to break this to you.

00:07:58.160 Oh, no.

00:07:58.320 Because I know, I feel like she listens to most of our shows.

00:08:00.640 Uh-huh.

00:08:01.320 But I don't think she tuned in on Monday at all, or Tuesday, or any show since the debate.

00:08:05.880 Huh.

00:08:06.240 Because she seems to be very confused as to what's going on in this new clip from MSNBC.

00:08:12.700 It's Nancy Pelosi, and she's being asked about Joe Biden and whether he's going to stay in

00:08:20.260 the race, and she has a different understanding of this situation than I do.

00:08:24.520 Mm-hmm.

00:08:24.900 Does he have your support to be the head of the Democratic Senate?

00:08:27.360 As long as the president had-

00:08:28.980 The president-

00:08:29.480 It's up to the president to suicide if he is going to run.

00:08:32.940 To suicide.

00:08:32.960 We're all encouraging him to make that decision because time is running short.

00:08:40.180 But the, I think, overwhelming support of the caucus, it's not for me to say.

00:08:46.200 I'm not the head of the caucus anymore.

00:08:47.560 But, uh, he's beloved.

00:08:51.480 Oh.

00:08:51.940 He is respected.

00:08:52.900 Right.

00:08:53.380 Oh.

00:08:53.480 And people want him to make that decision.

00:08:56.200 Oh.

00:08:56.340 Not me.

00:08:57.020 He has said, he has made the decision.

00:08:58.680 He has said firmly this week, he is going to run.

00:09:01.980 Do you want him to run?

00:09:03.060 So, I want him to do whatever he decides to do.

00:09:06.660 He's already decided.

00:09:07.500 That's the way it is.

00:09:08.520 Whatever he decides, we go with.

00:09:10.880 Wow.

00:09:11.880 That is not a ringing endorsement from Nancy Pelosi.

00:09:14.960 It's also a lot of words that don't exist, like suicide.

00:09:17.920 I don't know what suicide is.

00:09:19.720 At some point, Joe Biden needs to suicide.

00:09:22.580 They make fun of, or they make fun of Biden for his speech issues.

00:09:27.380 She's got some, too.

00:09:28.160 She's got them, too.

00:09:29.040 I mean, she's getting much worse, too.

00:09:31.320 She is.

00:09:31.620 I mean, this is like-

00:09:32.440 Sounds like she's drunk most of the time.

00:09:34.120 Yeah.

00:09:34.860 And I think it's just-

00:09:35.820 I don't know.

00:09:36.620 Is it age, or is it-

00:09:37.520 I think it's age.

00:09:37.900 Is it alcohol?

00:09:38.620 I mean, it's a morning show.

00:09:40.340 Actually, I'm not sure.

00:09:41.480 I'm not sure either.

00:09:42.420 Yeah.

00:09:42.640 I do.

00:09:43.040 You know, it's weird, because we've been watching these same figures the entire time

00:09:47.200 we've been doing talk radio, right?

00:09:49.320 Like, the whole time.

00:09:50.340 It's been the same people basically in charge.

00:09:52.600 I feel like we're standing, you know, and just out in the park watching Mount Rushmore sort

00:09:58.900 of just melt.

00:10:00.700 Like, it's really weird.

00:10:02.440 Like, all these big figures, they just get worse and worse and worse every time you see

00:10:07.140 them.

00:10:07.380 You know, Mitch McConnell, Nancy Pelosi, obviously Joe Biden, and so many more.

00:10:15.540 And they don't leave office.

00:10:17.840 They stay in their jobs.

00:10:20.980 They just get-

00:10:22.240 It's like if, you know, Michael Jordan came back today, and we had to watch him play.

00:10:27.540 I mean, he probably still averaged 14 a game, but it would be tough.

00:10:31.240 Like, I mean, you had Michael Jordan.

00:10:33.320 He comes back.

00:10:34.060 He wins all these championships.

00:10:34.900 And then he came- remember he came back with the Wizards for a couple of years?

00:10:37.260 Yeah.

00:10:37.420 And he was still pretty freaking good.

00:10:38.960 Yeah, he was.

00:10:39.440 He was like 40 years old.

00:10:40.360 He's still scoring 20 points a game.

00:10:42.120 But like, you could tell there was a big drop off.

00:10:44.940 If he, you know, it just seems like what if he just kept playing until he was 80?

00:10:48.700 I mean, that's what it's like watching these people.

00:10:51.180 It is.

00:10:51.900 They can't do the basic things that they used to do.

00:10:55.100 Joe Biden was never, obviously, a great politician.

00:10:58.240 He has accomplished very little in his life.

00:11:01.040 This is obvious to anyone who isn't a Democrat begging him to get out right now.

00:11:05.120 Right now, the way to get him to get out of the race is to say, you've been incredible.

00:11:10.220 This presidency has been incredible.

00:11:12.980 This three and a half years has been the most amazing three and a half years of any presidency of all time.

00:11:18.520 You are so great, Joe.

00:11:19.920 Get out.

00:11:21.700 I understand that approach.

00:11:22.960 You're playing up to his ego.

00:11:24.820 You're trying to persuade him.

00:11:27.040 But we should draw the line here, Pat.

00:11:30.620 This is not true.

00:11:32.920 Joe Biden.

00:11:33.700 The three years of incredible presidency is not true?

00:11:36.040 Yeah, it's not true.

00:11:37.140 Huh.

00:11:37.480 Joe Biden has not been a good president at all.

00:11:39.740 He's been a very bad president.

00:11:42.180 Very bad.

00:11:43.020 A piece of evidence to support this would be the fact that he had a 36% approval rating before the debate.

00:11:49.840 Yeah.

00:11:50.040 No president, to my knowledge, give me a call, correct me if I'm wrong, but no president in recent history has been able to recover from approval ratings like this and win the presidency.

00:12:02.280 None.

00:12:02.560 Let me give you the list of the names.

00:12:06.380 I'm done.

00:12:08.420 It doesn't happen.

00:12:10.520 It doesn't work.

00:12:11.640 Give me that list again.

00:12:12.580 Sure, right here.

00:12:13.080 I'm going to give you one more time.

00:12:14.000 I might have missed some of them.

00:12:14.160 Here it comes.

00:12:14.640 Some of the names.

00:12:15.720 Done.

00:12:16.180 Okay.

00:12:17.420 Wow.

00:12:17.740 It's an extended list.

00:12:19.360 And that's, I believe...

00:12:20.540 That was the extended list?

00:12:21.580 The extended list.

00:12:22.620 Okay.

00:12:23.680 I mean, George W. Bush did come back from a slight polling issue in this time.

00:12:32.840 Now, of course, George W. Bush was not in his 80s when he did such a thing, but he wasn't...

00:12:40.740 Like mid-50s, if I remember correctly.

00:12:42.420 He was, you know, in his prime as a politician, and he was not down as much, and he was not

00:12:48.120 dealing with the types of things that Joe Biden is dealing with, I mean, it's possible

00:12:52.660 to come back.

00:12:53.420 It doesn't mean that this election is decided.

00:12:55.080 In fact, it's, I would argue, uncomfortably close.

00:12:59.060 I mean, considering what we saw yesterday, what we didn't see as aftermath of that debate

00:13:04.320 was a massive polling collapse for Democrats.

00:13:08.340 You know, we didn't see that.

00:13:09.900 We didn't see an 8.9 point drop.

00:13:12.420 We saw, I don't know, a three-point movement, the normal movement of a blowout debate.

00:13:17.200 That, to me, was worse than a blowout debate, and there was certainly a part of me hoping

00:13:21.500 that it would be even larger.

00:13:23.060 It might wind up being that way.

00:13:24.380 We don't know yet.

00:13:26.240 But politicians, presidents running for re-election that want to run for re-election and have a

00:13:32.380 36% approval rating don't win re-election.

00:13:35.700 That's just the way this typically works.

00:13:38.040 It's not impossible.

00:13:39.320 Donald Trump obviously brings some unique things to the table in an election.

00:13:44.700 We've talked many, many, for many years about Trump derangement syndrome, where people, I mean,

00:13:49.740 to define that generally, we're talking about irrational hatred for Donald Trump no matter

00:13:55.100 what.

00:13:55.400 So when you have someone who has a syndrome named after him, there's a lot of people who

00:14:03.000 just will vote against him no matter what, even if his opponent is incoherent.

00:14:07.720 And so that's going to make it to be a close election no matter what, I think.

00:14:11.340 I don't think you're going to get even a Barack Obama, John McCain type of result, which was,

00:14:16.240 I think we talked about it earlier, 54-45, I think was the number on that, if I'm remembering

00:14:20.460 right, it was eight or nine points, that's about as big a blowout as you can possibly

00:14:24.680 come up with in today's politics, with people polarized the way they are.

00:14:29.340 I don't think you're going to see that here.

00:14:31.560 You should.

00:14:32.580 It's really hard to imagine in this day and age, blowouts like we saw with Ronald Reagan,

00:14:39.880 you know, who won 49 states.

00:14:41.800 Yeah.

00:14:42.020 I can't, can you imagine that happening today?

00:14:45.120 No.

00:14:45.580 I mean, Ronald Reagan, 49 states, including California, which, and New York, which you'd

00:14:52.320 never see happen today.

00:14:53.560 You'd never see that happen.

00:14:55.880 So, yeah, it's always going to be close.

00:14:59.740 And it is too close for comfort even now, even, you know, a couple of weeks after the

00:15:05.080 debate now.

00:15:06.680 It's two weeks on, like tomorrow already, right?

00:15:10.280 Man, that's gone by fast.

00:15:11.740 All right, 888-727-BECK.

00:15:14.960 More coming up in one minute.

00:15:18.020 This month, we've been celebrating the birth of our nation and remembering the heroes who

00:15:22.400 fought for our freedoms.

00:15:24.160 But you know that some Americans today still don't have the freedom of life and liberty.

00:15:28.680 Tragically, every day, thousands of unborn babies' lives are taken against their will.

00:15:33.720 I don't know.

00:15:34.880 Maybe they should be considered Americans too?

00:15:36.960 Is this a controversial statement?

00:15:38.600 I guess it is these days.

00:15:39.980 Pre-Born is the largest pro-life organization in the country.

00:15:43.540 They're leading the charge to put an end to the atrocity of abortion.

00:15:47.600 Every day, they sponsor free ultrasounds for women, as well as providing help for up to

00:15:52.100 two years after the baby is born.

00:15:54.200 When a mother sees her unborn child on the monitor, she hears that heartbeat.

00:15:58.400 She's twice as likely to consider choosing life for her baby.

00:16:01.920 If you're a business owner, perhaps you can consider a larger donation for a write-off because,

00:16:06.580 as we know, the government isn't working to save babies.

00:16:09.000 Their priority seems to be the opposite these days.

00:16:13.280 A donation of $1,000, $2,000, $20,000, all tax deductible, and can do so much for so many.

00:16:20.980 Get involved today.

00:16:22.380 Donate.

00:16:23.060 Please.

00:16:23.680 Dial pound 250 and say the keyword baby.

00:16:25.700 It's pound 250, say the keyword baby.

00:16:27.980 If you can only give $1, $2, $5, that's great too.

00:16:31.540 Preborn.com slash Beck.

00:16:33.180 Preborn.com slash Beck.

00:16:35.540 Go there now.

00:16:36.500 It's sponsored by Pre-Born.

00:16:38.280 10 seconds, Station ID.

00:16:39.160 So, let's say that Joe Biden does step aside, and it turns out that Kamala Harris becomes

00:16:58.060 the nominee for the Democrats.

00:17:00.480 Who's her vice president going to be?

00:17:03.080 You know the rumor I'm hearing is Gretchen Whitmer.

00:17:06.740 You imagine two women on the ticket?

00:17:08.440 I mean, it was not that long ago where there was one woman on the ticket, and that didn't

00:17:14.400 even happen.

00:17:17.020 To have two women on the ticket?

00:17:18.700 We're moving down this path pretty fast now.

00:17:21.540 Is Geraldine Ferraro available?

00:17:24.420 I mean, I don't know if she could step up.

00:17:28.040 I just feel uncomfortable.

00:17:29.280 Is she alive?

00:17:30.700 Again, is the president alive?

00:17:34.240 That's a good question.

00:17:34.920 So, I mean, I don't know that she's any less alive than Biden.

00:17:37.380 That's a good point.

00:17:38.120 I don't buy Whitmer with Kamala.

00:17:43.260 I don't think that would be the choice.

00:17:44.880 I mean, I could definitely see Newsom as a...

00:17:48.840 Yeah, I could see that.

00:17:49.840 I could see someone like a...

00:17:53.080 I mean, you think of...

00:17:54.200 Although that's California, so that would be an issue, wouldn't it?

00:17:56.880 Yeah.

00:17:57.220 Two Californians.

00:17:57.820 She's California.

00:17:58.760 Yeah, yeah.

00:17:59.000 Again, those are always...

00:17:59.980 Those problems are real, but solvable.

00:18:02.580 Yeah.

00:18:02.860 You can always get around them, but that would be an interesting one.

00:18:05.660 You know, someone like a...

00:18:07.000 You would probably want to go...

00:18:07.980 What about a Josh Shapiro from Pennsylvania?

00:18:10.640 I think that would be a real possibility.

00:18:12.680 Yeah.

00:18:13.040 He's an up-and-coming star.

00:18:14.980 He's from the region.

00:18:16.040 They need Pennsylvania pretty desperately.

00:18:18.960 Yeah.

00:18:19.220 He'd be a guy I think would be...

00:18:20.980 Especially not needing to step into the top of the ticket, but stepping into that secondary

00:18:24.320 role, I think he would be a serious consideration.

00:18:26.320 A lot of this has to do, too, with what is Kamala's relationship with these people.

00:18:30.680 I mean, I have no idea.

00:18:31.900 I have no idea.

00:18:32.980 If you go by the Barack Obama rule, which is don't...

00:18:38.140 The Barack Obama rule, if you go back and read his heavily reported biographies, is basically

00:18:45.320 like America is a bunch of racists.

00:18:48.160 They can't take more than one exotic candidate on a ticket.

00:18:52.660 This is why you had Joe Biden on the ticket.

00:18:55.040 He specifically picked him because he was old and white.

00:18:59.700 That's not like me speculating.

00:19:01.820 This has been heavily reported.

00:19:03.360 He picked him because he thought the American people couldn't deal with another person of

00:19:09.700 color on the ticket.

00:19:10.660 They're too racist.

00:19:11.640 They couldn't deal with another younger person on the ticket.

00:19:14.120 They were too...

00:19:15.580 They were, you know...

00:19:16.500 So he needed a racist on the ticket.

00:19:19.280 You're saying Joe Biden...

00:19:20.040 Barack Obama needed a racist on the ticket.

00:19:22.560 What evidence do you have of Joe Biden being a racist?

00:19:26.120 Well, there's, you know, this, but it's...

00:19:32.060 You're not hearing me.

00:19:33.360 I'm not hearing it.

00:19:34.320 No.

00:19:34.720 But it's there.

00:19:36.520 My understanding...

00:19:37.560 You know what I mean?

00:19:37.780 Yeah.

00:19:38.100 Well, let's hear it.

00:19:38.740 Let's...

00:19:39.000 Maybe you have...

00:19:40.060 I mean, I might...

00:19:41.200 Okay.

00:19:42.660 Well...

00:19:42.980 I mean, you've got the first sort of mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright

00:19:52.320 and clean and nice-looking guy.

00:19:56.580 I mean, that's a storybook, man.

00:19:58.400 Storybook.

00:19:58.860 That doesn't happen in real life.

00:19:59.920 Can you imagine a clean African-American?

00:20:03.480 What a storybook that would be.

00:20:05.280 Yeah.

00:20:05.720 Right.

00:20:05.960 Thank you, Joe Biden, for bringing that analysis to us because, I mean, can you imagine...

00:20:10.340 We're talking also not about just a clean African-American, which would be a storybook in and of itself, according to Joe, but...

00:20:16.120 Sure.

00:20:16.480 ...also one that could speak...

00:20:19.740 Not articulately.

00:20:21.560 Yes.

00:20:22.260 Sort of articulate?

00:20:23.440 I'm saying you have an articulate...

00:20:24.800 Sort of.

00:20:26.140 I mean, not totally articulate, but...

00:20:27.700 Yeah, sort of articulate.

00:20:29.280 That's like...

00:20:30.220 That's another world.

00:20:31.400 Right, that would be...

00:20:32.280 But if you could be sort of articulate and clean, you're saying?

00:20:36.520 And that's what I'm saying.

00:20:37.080 You've got to keep your storybooks believable, right?

00:20:39.880 Like, it couldn't possibly happen.

00:20:42.140 Yeah.

00:20:42.640 You got from storybook to sci-fi.

00:20:44.620 Right.

00:20:44.840 According to the book of Joe Biden, it couldn't possibly happen.

00:20:48.200 You'd have an actually articulate, clean black man.

00:20:51.200 No, no.

00:20:51.460 But in this particular situation, you have a sort of articulate, clean black man.

00:20:56.060 Now, is he sort of clean, or is he fully clean and only sort of articulate?

00:21:00.260 Well, he does say clean.

00:21:02.260 He doesn't...

00:21:02.720 He doesn't qualify that.

00:21:04.060 He doesn't qualify clean.

00:21:05.080 So I think he's talking about...

00:21:06.840 He might have even taken a full shower.

00:21:08.920 And by the way, we should point out, the only reason Joe Biden is president is because

00:21:13.760 of the black vote.

00:21:14.900 Yeah.

00:21:15.140 Somehow, he was able to survive that statement.

00:21:18.320 Yeah, and many more.

00:21:19.520 And many more.

00:21:20.000 And you have a problem figuring out whether you're for me or Trump, and you ain't black.

00:21:23.900 Okay.

00:21:24.780 He survived that.

00:21:26.580 Yep.

00:21:26.800 And he went to James Clyburn and was like, please endorse me.

00:21:29.460 And he did.

00:21:30.800 And now, in his moment of stress, what is keeping him in this office?

00:21:35.340 The Congressional Black Caucus.

00:21:37.740 It's incredible.

00:21:38.960 It is incredible.

00:21:39.920 This man has said more overtly racist things than...

00:21:43.920 Than anybody.

00:21:44.700 Any politician.

00:21:45.380 Obviously more than Donald Trump, who they all say is racist.

00:21:48.440 Yeah.

00:21:48.600 More than any presidential candidate going back to all...

00:21:51.240 Probably to LBJ.

00:21:52.460 It's not even close.

00:21:53.980 It's not even close.

00:21:55.140 If...

00:21:55.540 And you know what?

00:21:56.100 But LBJ's comments were in private.

00:21:58.920 This guy's done it all publicly.

00:22:00.680 It's true.

00:22:01.340 We actually have the clips to play.

00:22:03.320 Now, we know LBJ was a racist.

00:22:05.960 Oh, terrible guy.

00:22:06.180 However, he was saying those things not in front of the cameras.

00:22:09.600 This is Joe Biden in front of cameras doing it.

00:22:11.320 Yeah.

00:22:11.920 Over and over and over again.

00:22:13.020 That's how blatant.

00:22:13.560 In Delaware, the largest growth in population is Indian Americans moving from India.

00:22:19.940 You cannot go to a 7-Eleven or a Dunkin' Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent.

00:22:27.700 I'm not joking.

00:22:28.780 And he's not joking.

00:22:29.560 He's actually being racist right there.

00:22:31.280 He's not joking about it.

00:22:32.740 No, he's serious about his racism.

00:22:35.480 It's great.

00:22:36.700 Incredible.

00:22:37.160 And you've got the one where he says that unlike black people, Hispanics are diverse in their opinions.

00:22:45.560 Remember that one?

00:22:45.960 Oh, I remember that one.

00:22:46.780 Yeah.

00:22:47.300 Like, you know...

00:22:47.960 Like, all blacks think alike.

00:22:49.360 All blacks think alike.

00:22:50.180 But Hispanics actually have differences in opinions.

00:22:52.520 Yeah.

00:22:52.680 Like, individual Hispanics might think of something different.

00:22:55.320 Right.

00:22:55.660 Unlike, obviously, blacks.

00:22:57.320 Obviously.

00:22:58.080 I mean, that's what he said.

00:22:58.760 I mean, over and over and over he's done this kind of stuff.

00:23:00.800 Yeah.

00:23:01.380 And yet he is a champion, apparently, of the black community.

00:23:04.500 It's fine.

00:23:04.840 By the way, margin is a little bit off of my remembrance of this.

00:23:08.300 It was 53-46, Barack Obama and John McCain.

00:23:12.020 Only a seven-point margin.

00:23:13.460 And I think that is still about as big as you can possibly get.

00:23:16.780 If you want to go back to the days back in the...

00:23:21.000 Ronald Reagan, 59.

00:23:22.600 Walter Mondale, 41.

00:23:24.260 So, I mean, this is a totally different world.

00:23:26.540 Reagan beat Carter by nine.

00:23:29.760 You know, Bill Clinton won by six, five and a half.

00:23:33.660 And then he beat Bob Dole by about nine.

00:23:38.400 And then since then, it's been close pretty much every single time.

00:23:42.120 Even in blowout elections, there's only six or seven points.

00:24:57.400 More Glenn Beck in a moment.

00:25:14.340 Unlike the African-American community, with notable exceptions, the Latino community is an incredibly

00:25:22.680 diverse community.

00:25:23.900 Fine.

00:25:25.260 Is that true?

00:25:26.620 There it is.

00:25:27.400 There it is.

00:25:30.260 Incredible.

00:25:31.280 It's just really incredible that he got away with that.

00:25:33.200 It's Pat and Stu for Glenn today.

00:25:35.160 888-727-B-E-C-K.

00:25:37.620 I like this political story.

00:25:40.240 From Politico, Trump's platform has changed the GOP's position on abortion.

00:25:46.780 And it's not just abortion, but that's one of the big ones.

00:25:50.300 And not everyone is happy.

00:25:52.700 I would be included among not everyone.

00:25:56.000 Really?

00:25:56.560 Yeah, I would.

00:25:57.320 I don't appreciate the fact that the Republican Party has just adopted Trump's newfound liberality,

00:26:05.540 I guess, on abortion.

00:26:07.180 I, I, how can you do that?

00:26:10.560 Either, either you believe that abortion is killing a baby, or you don't.

00:26:18.220 Yeah.

00:26:18.660 Which is it?

00:26:19.560 I don't really understand the middle ground on it.

00:26:21.420 Yeah, it's hard to understand.

00:26:23.060 Either you think it's going to come out as a Volkswagen.

00:26:25.760 Right.

00:26:26.060 And it doesn't matter what you do to it.

00:26:27.760 Or you think it's a human child.

00:26:28.920 Or you think it's a human child and you need to protect it.

00:26:31.060 Mm-hmm.

00:26:31.620 Kind of the two positions that make sense to me.

00:26:33.500 Now, of course, the Volkswagen one doesn't make sense to me, and therefore I don't support it.

00:26:37.780 Mm-hmm.

00:26:37.960 But at least morally it makes some sense.

00:26:40.540 If you believe this is just some weird alien life form that occasionally comes out as a boy or a girl,

00:26:46.000 maybe you could justify not caring whether it lives or dies.

00:26:50.320 Or you take the, say, Bill Maher position, who does believe, actually said, yeah, it is kind of murder.

00:26:57.840 In fact, it's not just kind of murder.

00:26:59.240 It is murder.

00:27:00.420 But I'm okay with it.

00:27:01.500 Mm-hmm.

00:27:01.840 I guess you can do that.

00:27:02.940 We're too overpopulated, Pat.

00:27:04.860 You got to get the population bomb out of the library.

00:27:06.760 It's got a little bit of dust on it and everything in it is wrong.

00:27:08.700 But let's just still keep honoring those positions.

00:27:12.500 Yeah.

00:27:12.880 This is a weird one.

00:27:14.140 It's very weird.

00:27:14.880 I'm trying to think through this a little bit, right?

00:27:17.860 I'm trying not to be reactionary because I happen to be a, you know, someone who is very pro-life

00:27:23.380 and I don't feel that equivocation is the correct response to this particular issue.

00:27:30.640 You know, I have this weird vibe that maybe babies should be allowed to live.

00:27:36.980 That is weird.

00:27:38.120 Wow.

00:27:38.740 I don't know where I came up with it.

00:27:39.600 In every case, though?

00:27:40.700 I mean, not every case, right?

00:27:42.280 Just sometimes.

00:27:43.280 I was thinking like-

00:27:44.420 If you feel like it and it's convenient for you.

00:27:46.780 No, no.

00:27:47.380 No?

00:27:47.540 No, that's actually not what I'm saying.

00:27:48.800 What I'm saying is they should just have a chance to live their lives.

00:27:52.560 But what if it's inconvenient?

00:27:54.800 What if I'm not the CEO of a major corporation at the time?

00:27:59.740 And I might struggle from time to time.

00:28:02.120 No, this makes it much more difficult.

00:28:03.640 No, still have them live.

00:28:05.060 Really?

00:28:05.480 Yeah.

00:28:05.960 In all circumstances-

00:28:07.840 Wow, you're an extremist.

00:28:09.260 Children should be allowed to live.

00:28:12.020 What kind of right-wing kook are you?

00:28:14.260 Yeah.

00:28:14.880 And people will say, well, that's true.

00:28:17.540 I mean, what if we lose the next Einstein or the next Michael Jordan or who knows what

00:28:22.420 we could lose?

00:28:23.220 Also, a person who makes no difference at all.

00:28:26.900 What about the idiot who cuts you off in line at Sonic?

00:28:30.520 That person also deserves a chance to live.

00:28:35.840 All people deserve a chance to live.

00:28:41.740 If they screw their life up once they're born, that's on them.

00:28:45.960 Okay.

00:28:46.260 But we should be involved in maybe allowing babies to live.

00:28:49.900 It's a crazy position.

00:28:51.680 It is.

00:28:52.080 It's nutty.

00:28:52.600 It's true.

00:28:53.540 It is.

00:28:54.060 And I mean this sincerely.

00:28:55.780 It is extreme.

00:28:57.100 Because, I mean, you want to call me, and Pat, you'd be on this board bandwagon as well,

00:29:01.660 a pro-life extremist.

00:29:03.120 It's probably a fair description.

00:29:04.960 Because our opinion is not widely held for whatever reason.

00:29:08.020 It's not.

00:29:08.500 That's true.

00:29:09.160 I understand that.

00:29:09.980 That's true.

00:29:10.140 We're in the vast minority on that.

00:29:13.820 And I will say, that seems to be the calculation of the platform.

00:29:19.660 Right?

00:29:20.520 Yeah.

00:29:20.660 And I think a lot of people think that's reasonable.

00:29:23.260 Because you've got to get elected.

00:29:25.360 Well, Trump said it during the debate.

00:29:26.640 Yep.

00:29:27.000 We have to be elected.

00:29:28.720 Well, I mean, that is true.

00:29:31.820 And I will say, under normal circumstances, my reaction to this platform, which has plenty

00:29:38.280 of good stuff in there as well, like preventing World War III.

00:29:41.520 I'm on board for that.

00:29:42.320 Yeah, me too.

00:29:42.500 I don't think we should have World War III.

00:29:43.940 I didn't like one or two.

00:29:45.280 No.

00:29:45.640 We don't need a third one.

00:29:46.960 Let's not have it.

00:29:48.120 Now, you weren't around for either one or two, and neither was I.

00:29:50.920 So how do you know you don't like it?

00:29:52.660 You know, you should knock something before you try it.

00:29:56.260 Right.

00:29:56.860 That's a good point.

00:29:57.460 That's why they're trying to get us to try this third one.

00:29:59.680 Maybe it'll be better and more fun than the first two.

00:30:02.140 Yeah.

00:30:02.380 And I've noticed Democrats usually disagree with Republicans.

00:30:05.280 Republicans, I mean, they seem to be wanting the World War III thing.

00:30:08.620 Isn't it weird how they flipped on that?

00:30:10.900 So weird.

00:30:12.240 So bizarre.

00:30:13.020 Now, they would say, of course, they don't want World War III.

00:30:15.060 We flipped, too.

00:30:15.340 That's what they would say, is that, well, you guys were all about Iraq and Afghanistan,

00:30:19.900 and I would say, yes, I was at the time.

00:30:22.600 But I think I've learned something over the last 20 years of perpetual war, and I'd like

00:30:27.500 to avoid that now.

00:30:28.760 It'll teach us some lessons.

00:30:29.960 Yeah.

00:30:30.180 Yeah, and I remain, I think, concerned with the geopolitical fallout of doing nothing in

00:30:41.260 some of these situations.

00:30:42.760 But I will say, it should be a last resort.

00:30:46.280 War should be a last resort.

00:30:47.340 It shouldn't be the first resort.

00:30:48.980 Yeah.

00:30:49.240 And the situation in Ukraine and Russia is fascinating because, you're right, all of the

00:30:54.040 sudden, Democrats are so incredibly passionate.

00:30:57.620 They're all about it.

00:30:58.260 It's all they care about now.

00:30:59.360 Yeah.

00:31:00.120 They want to be involved.

00:31:01.500 They all of a sudden hate Russia after almost all of their officials went on vacations there

00:31:05.800 back in the day.

00:31:07.420 I mean, this was like, they all have townhouses there still, and all of a sudden, we're supposed

00:31:12.200 to believe they're anti-Russia?

00:31:13.480 Do you remember this from Barack Obama?

00:31:15.160 The 1980s are now calling to ask for their foreign policy back because, you know, the Cold

00:31:20.100 War has been over for 20 years.

00:31:21.640 I mean, that was his attitude.

00:31:22.900 Yeah.

00:31:23.300 In 2012, that was Barack Obama's attitude.

00:31:26.460 Russia's not a problem.

00:31:27.500 Nope.

00:31:28.060 They're a friend.

00:31:28.560 They're our friend.

00:31:29.620 They're not something to be afraid of at all.

00:31:32.540 You should be afraid of ISIS or whatever, but not Russia.

00:31:36.080 And it does sort of bother me that we highlight that clip because it is basically the best

00:31:39.840 moment of Mitt Romney's career.

00:31:41.620 Yeah.

00:31:41.980 And it's frustrating to highlight it.

00:31:43.760 But it is.

00:31:44.500 He was right on that.

00:31:45.780 He was.

00:31:46.160 We said he was right at the time.

00:31:48.000 Yes, we did.

00:31:48.580 Russia is maybe not number one, but the top three when you're talking about major international

00:31:53.880 threats.

00:31:54.580 I would say China's probably number one now.

00:31:56.160 Yeah.

00:31:56.340 That's where I would go as well.

00:31:57.520 So you look at this platform and there's a lot of good stuff in there.

00:32:02.580 It's, I think, a smart decision, I think, to transform what the old school process was, which

00:32:10.600 was, you know, you've got a 300 page platform that no one ever reads and no one really pays

00:32:15.140 attention to and shrink it down to about 20 points that everyone can kind of generally

00:32:21.320 agree on and that are consistent with the Republican Party ideals.

00:32:26.980 So I think that process is fine.

00:32:29.060 In the summary of the 20 points, the word abortion doesn't even exist.

00:32:32.960 This has been a central part of the Republican Party's ideals for a very long time.

00:32:38.780 Man.

00:32:39.420 A part of it, you know, the overturning of Roe versus Wade was the beginning of the end

00:32:45.700 of abortion, if you are of the optimistic sort.

00:32:51.080 But it was also part of a 50 year legal battle, a 50 year effort to overturn one of these, one

00:33:02.700 of the worst legal rulings in history.

00:33:05.820 So the fact that it would just be abandoned and there is some sort of boilerplate language

00:33:13.120 in the expanded document that kind of indicates, Pat, well, we're against late term abortion.

00:33:19.800 That's good.

00:33:21.360 You should be.

00:33:22.320 Yeah.

00:33:23.240 That's it.

00:33:23.920 And that's it.

00:33:24.780 And it says something about being generally pro-life.

00:33:27.600 Like it doesn't really define that.

00:33:29.980 I just feel like I'm of two minds of this, Pat.

00:33:33.500 Tell me where you would land and maybe we can get calls on this.

00:33:36.900 888-727-BECK.

00:33:38.660 Because it does, it's a tough one in some ways if you think it out.

00:33:43.260 Number one, the platform, who even reads it?

00:33:46.740 I think you can make the argument it doesn't mean really a thing.

00:33:50.420 Number two, Donald Trump has a pretty good record on this topic, right?

00:33:55.720 Like he appointed justices.

00:33:58.040 Yeah.

00:33:58.340 Who overturned Roe versus Wade.

00:34:00.160 Of something that both you and I together have said for many years would never happen.

00:34:04.240 Right.

00:34:04.740 And then it happened.

00:34:06.100 Yep.

00:34:06.400 So how can you question the guy?

00:34:07.740 On the other hand, you know, it seems very much like it's politics here where the calculation

00:34:17.500 being made this time by Donald Trump is what benefits him to be elected is to be sort of

00:34:23.400 soft on this issue, to not scare suburban women away, right?

00:34:26.840 I understand that as a political calculation.

00:34:28.880 Maybe it's the right one.

00:34:29.660 But his calculation in 2016 was, we have weakness with evangelical Christians and others that

00:34:37.960 are pro-life.

00:34:39.320 We should be strong on this issue.

00:34:41.840 And that's a different position than the one he has today, seemingly.

00:34:45.540 I get that, well, they made the decision it's going back to the States.

00:34:49.800 But I don't know.

00:34:51.000 How do you work through this yourself?

00:34:53.500 Uh, well, I, I'm having a hard time too.

00:34:56.720 I'm struggling with it because, you know, you do have to be elected.

00:35:00.380 And he said that at the, at the debate.

00:35:03.120 Otherwise, you got a Democrat in office again.

00:35:07.040 And especially this one, um, who is killing us.

00:35:11.240 He's just killing us.

00:35:12.400 And so he's making a political calculation.

00:35:14.600 And, you know, a lot of people think he should.

00:35:17.580 On abortion, I don't think you can make that calculation.

00:35:21.320 On abortion, it's too important.

00:35:23.500 It's, uh, it's too critical.

00:35:26.000 And, you know, you're, again, you're either pro-life or you're not.

00:35:29.300 So I think there's one exception and that's the mother's life in danger.

00:35:32.640 But that almost never happens.

00:35:34.060 Yeah.

00:35:34.340 I mean, it's pretty, it never happens.

00:35:37.000 It's, it's incredibly rare.

00:35:39.180 I mean, some doctors, some doctors say it's never happens.

00:35:42.080 I mean, and it's again, like.

00:35:43.360 Because you could do a C-section, right?

00:35:45.720 I think that's the point is that, well, you can deliver the baby still.

00:35:49.440 You don't have to afford it.

00:35:49.900 You have to deliver the baby.

00:35:50.980 Yes.

00:35:51.280 You have no choice.

00:35:52.320 Eventually you have to deliver it.

00:35:53.380 It's just whether you're going to try to deliver it alive or dead.

00:35:55.760 Right.

00:35:56.200 Right.

00:35:56.740 Yeah.

00:35:57.040 Again, like there is, there, uh, with that particular one, it, it can get a little messy.

00:36:01.940 So, um, but again, I, it's still a difficult decision for anyone.

00:36:06.680 You're just choosing one life for another.

00:36:08.480 And like, well, how do you deal with that?

00:36:10.220 But this is what it gets winds up happening with these debates.

00:36:13.960 You get a sidetracked just the 0.0001% of possibilities.

00:36:18.480 At the end of the day, if we just saw both Donald Trump and J.D. Vance, who is one of the leaders

00:36:25.360 for the, for VP, go on television and say they're pretty much okay with Mifepresto, which

00:36:30.680 is like, that's what we're talking right now about 60 to 70% of abortions are going with

00:36:36.400 the abortion pill.

00:36:37.420 Right.

00:36:37.820 You know, if these, these things that are tossed out there, like, oh, well, what about

00:36:42.720 15 week ban?

00:36:44.180 Well, you're allowing 95% of abortions to occur with a 15 week ban.

00:36:49.200 These are not pro-life positions.

00:36:51.540 No.

00:36:52.360 They're more pro-life than AOC.

00:36:55.140 You know, if that's your standard, I guess you're hitting it.

00:36:58.240 But like a pro-life standard is trying to stop abortions.

00:37:01.640 Even a six week ban allows 40% of abortions to occur.

00:37:06.060 Or, wow.

00:37:08.280 I mean, that is, is that a pro-life position?

00:37:11.780 It's half pro-life.

00:37:14.600 And the abortion pill thing, I don't even understand how you can be okay with that.

00:37:19.920 I, how can you, if you're pro-life, I mean, I understand it if you're pro-abortion.

00:37:24.560 I don't understand it from the Republican Party standpoint.

00:37:28.220 And I don't get it.

00:37:29.760 So, but again, maybe we're too extreme on this.

00:37:31.940 Yep.

00:37:32.300 Very possible.

00:37:33.100 Do you care, first of all, that it's not in the platform?

00:37:36.060 Number one.

00:37:36.560 And number two, do you understand the calculation here?

00:37:38.740 888-727-BECK.

00:37:40.340 Is it okay?

00:37:41.200 Are you okay with it?

00:37:43.060 I mean, if you're like AOC and you're like, I want to have 14 abortions next week, that's

00:37:47.020 not really the person I'm looking to hear from.

00:37:48.740 I want someone who's pro-life and is like, okay, look, I just Trump, I think it's totally

00:37:52.620 fair to just say, look, I just trust Trump on this.

00:37:56.820 And he has to be elected.

00:37:57.500 Because he's got a good record.

00:37:58.260 And he's got to be elected.

00:37:59.100 Yeah.

00:37:59.720 More coming up.

00:38:00.360 You're listening to the Glenn Beck Program.

00:38:04.380 In an era of escalating social unrest and rising crime rates, safeguarding our families

00:38:24.840 has never been more critical.

00:38:26.500 That is why I'm endorsing the Berna Less Lethal Pistol Launcher.

00:38:31.780 It's a non-lethal defense option developed by common sense gun owners who value the power

00:38:37.100 of choice.

00:38:38.440 This device enables you to de-escalate dangerous situations effectively without the finality

00:38:44.120 of lethal force.

00:38:46.160 The Berna offers a safer, sensible alternative that can save lives on both ends, protecting

00:38:52.360 the user, and delivering formidable stopping power to deter aggressors.

00:38:57.900 Legal in all 50 states, no background checks or permits required, and can be shipped directly

00:39:02.640 to your door.

00:39:03.740 It's more than just an option.

00:39:05.560 It's an essential tool for responsible, non-lethal protection.

00:39:10.140 Visit Berna, B-Y-R-N-A dot com slash Glenn.

00:39:13.340 Get 10% off your purchase.

00:39:14.880 Stay safe with Berna dot com slash Glenn.

00:39:18.020 Well, let's say you happen to be a man who's just sold their home, okay?

00:39:27.500 Perhaps you're a person who is named Pat Gray, and there's going to be some playing around

00:39:33.840 with old titles, new titles maybe coming into the picture when it comes to your home.

00:39:38.300 These are risky times for someone like Pat, because your title is at, but focus.

00:39:46.780 I think you can turn that off, actually, on these.

00:39:49.860 It's one of those things that can be a real problem for you, right?

00:39:52.400 Because if your title gets stolen, like you could go, this has happened to people, they

00:39:56.240 go to sell their home, they think they're selling their home, and they're like, actually, you

00:39:58.720 sold your home six months ago.

00:39:59.860 What are you talking about?

00:40:00.460 Actually, no, I didn't.

00:40:01.600 But yeah, that's a nightmare.

00:40:03.260 It's wild.

00:40:03.760 It's called home title theft.

00:40:04.700 It's one of the fastest growing crimes in America.

00:40:06.920 And it's also one of the least known crimes.

00:40:09.320 You don't want it happening to you and your family, which is why you need home title protection.

00:40:13.200 If no one is watching out for your title, then it's really just a matter of time until

00:40:17.380 one of these thieves targets you.

00:40:19.200 This is happening to people.

00:40:20.460 It is real.

00:40:21.220 And there is at least something you can do about it.

00:40:23.960 Don't fall prey to these thieves.

00:40:25.740 Go to HomeTitleLock.com.

00:40:58.740 Pat and Stu for Glenn this week.

00:41:01.700 888-727-BECK.

00:41:03.760 Are you okay with the compromise the Republican Party is making in their platform on abortion?

00:41:11.160 Actually, the abortion issue doesn't really figure into the platform much at all, does it?

00:41:17.540 You said they just kind of, in passing, mention that they're generally pro-life.

00:41:22.280 The main summary that they released does not mention the word abortion at all.

00:41:25.680 There's nothing about it at all.

00:41:26.860 In the expanded, I think, 16-page version, it does, in passing, mention it, and only says

00:41:32.640 they're against late-term abortion.

00:41:35.000 It just shows how frightened off they've been by the outcry of the Democrats.

00:41:41.820 Yep.

00:41:42.220 It's worked really well, the Democrats.

00:41:44.660 It has.

00:41:45.300 And it worked really well.

00:41:47.420 I still don't necessarily believe you're winning or losing this election based on that law.

00:41:53.020 But you've said before, even if you do lose it, though, is this an issue worth losing an election over?

00:41:59.240 It's a tough one.

00:42:00.320 It is a tough one.

00:42:01.500 Yeah, it really is.

00:42:02.840 Let's go to Liz in New York.

00:42:04.180 Hey, Liz, you're on the Glenn Beck Program, Pat and Stu.

00:42:07.020 Hi, thank you for taking my call.

00:42:08.600 So I called in because I was raised by a single mother, very liberal Democrat, who was an atheist,

00:42:18.440 but yet also told me abortion was my God-given right as a woman.

00:42:22.980 It somehow made what I now term sexual immorality, you know, made me equal to a man.

00:42:28.240 I could walk away from a pregnancy just as easily as a man could.

00:42:31.640 I ended up getting—well, I got married.

00:42:33.840 I had my first kid.

00:42:34.820 With our second child, though, there was a problem with the pregnancy, and I remember

00:42:40.200 we were in the car, both of us debating in our own heads.

00:42:43.960 We were both, you know, pro-choice at the time, and I wanted this baby.

00:42:47.940 I wanted this baby.

00:42:48.980 I'm going to get emotional.

00:42:50.320 I wanted this baby.

00:42:51.980 And then one of us said, I think we should have him, and the other one went, yes, we

00:42:57.920 should have tears and everything.

00:42:58.860 So we have this wonderful—he's now 15 years old.

00:43:01.020 He has special needs, and I wouldn't change a damn thing.

00:43:03.840 I—she makes my life perfect, along with my older child, of course.

00:43:08.980 But I also started at that time listening, because how do you, when you're pro-choice

00:43:12.440 and then you make this decision to have this baby, and you, you know, this is the life we

00:43:16.060 live, I started really listening to some of the pro-life arguments, and some of them I

00:43:20.020 just didn't have a good answer to.

00:43:22.800 And as a pro-choice person, that's what started to change my mind.

00:43:25.820 I now consider myself pro-life.

00:43:27.400 And while I am not—I'm not comfortable with the Republicans saying, well, we're okay

00:43:34.520 with it, you know, at this point or that point, you're right.

00:43:36.940 I agree with you guys that you're either okay with killing a baby or you're not.

00:43:40.820 Yeah.

00:43:41.220 But if we—if we don't allow a leeway—like, I feel like this is a long process.

00:43:47.000 It's going to be a long process of the pro-life movement really working with people and doing

00:43:52.280 things like those sonograms and showing mothers there are options.

00:43:57.020 It's really important, and we think we're out of time, but thank you for your call.

00:43:59.660 We're going to have more on this here in a second.

00:44:00.780 The Glenn Beck Program

00:44:02.780 The Glenn Beck Program

00:44:30.760 Welcome to the Fusion of Entertainment and Enlightenment.

00:44:57.700 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:45:04.700 With Pat and Stu, we've been talking about the Republican platform and how they've just

00:45:10.520 adopted Trump's position on everything.

00:45:12.460 And is that—when it comes to abortion, is that okay with you?

00:45:17.300 I think Stu and I admittedly are maybe a little more extreme on this than many people, pro-life-wise.

00:45:22.740 But what do you think?

00:45:25.180 Yes, Republicans have to get elected.

00:45:28.420 And this is a tough one.

00:45:33.040 Do you think you compromise on being pro-life?

00:45:37.320 888-727-BECK.

00:45:39.300 We'll get into that and your calls in one minute.

00:45:41.460 It's hard to keep a good company down, especially one that puts out the best products consistently.

00:45:48.460 And that is what MyPillow has been doing for a long time.

00:45:51.280 We've been singing their praises for years on this show because Glenn actually uses their products.

00:45:56.460 And because they actually stand for something good in the American market.

00:46:01.780 MyPillow has seen amazing success, despite everyone trying to blow up their company.

00:46:06.420 And, you know, they don't have support of the big box stores anymore.

00:46:09.240 They don't have the shopping channels anymore.

00:46:10.800 But they just have you.

00:46:12.040 They just have the American people who really like their stuff.

00:46:14.420 That's what they have.

00:46:15.380 And with this huge change in retailers, they want to pass savings directly onto you to say thank you

00:46:20.420 and show you how much they should appreciate your support.

00:46:23.820 To get you familiar with their other products, they are having a $25 extravaganza.

00:47:03.560 It won't last long.

00:47:04.520 It's MyPillow.

00:47:10.300 All right, 888-727-BECK with your thoughts.

00:47:14.860 You know, just how important is being pro-life to you?

00:47:18.860 To me, it's pretty important.

00:47:20.660 I mean, is there a more important issue than this?

00:47:25.180 Than life?

00:47:26.960 I don't think so.

00:47:28.180 I mean, we do have a situation where tens of millions of people should be alive that aren't.

00:47:32.780 Yeah, well.

00:47:33.420 And that's a big one.

00:47:34.360 Yeah.

00:47:34.620 And it's hard to overstate it.

00:47:35.820 And that's just in the U.S.

00:47:37.240 It's 64 million here.

00:47:39.600 It is over a billion worldwide.

00:47:42.060 That's staggering.

00:47:45.780 Now, on the left, they're fine with that because we're overpopulated to begin with, according to many of them.

00:47:52.360 But, I mean, every person on this earth could fit on the island of Maui.

00:47:58.380 Every person on earth.

00:48:00.140 I mean, you'd be a little bit crowded.

00:48:01.560 Yeah.

00:48:01.880 It'd be like a concert.

00:48:03.100 If all 8 billion of us got there.

00:48:04.180 But, yeah.

00:48:04.800 Yeah.

00:48:05.240 You could do it.

00:48:05.680 I mean, you'd be shoulder to shoulder.

00:48:07.420 Can you imagine if you just stretched that out to Texas?

00:48:10.300 We'd all have some room.

00:48:11.600 Mm-hmm.

00:48:12.460 Let alone spreading us out over the entire face of the planet.

00:48:15.620 I mean, I don't know how many people you can fit on this earth and how many we can feed, but it's a lot.

00:48:21.080 It's more than we have now.

00:48:22.160 I mean, if you're a person of faith, I tend to come to the conclusion that it's unlimited.

00:48:29.620 Basically, as many as you can.

00:48:30.680 And you know what?

00:48:31.140 I'd like to have more.

00:48:32.080 Yeah.

00:48:32.340 I think, you know, having people on the earth is a good thing.

00:48:34.940 When you've lost over a billion people worldwide, you just wonder, gosh, would one of them have cured cancer?

00:48:41.120 It's possible.

00:48:42.520 Right?

00:48:42.840 It is.

00:48:43.240 I mean, well, we know one of them is.

00:48:44.700 Joe Biden promised he was going to do it.

00:48:46.140 So, that's going to happen any day now.

00:48:47.820 You can check if it's done right now, by the way.

00:48:49.400 It hasjoebidencuredcancer.com.

00:48:51.640 Oh, okay.

00:48:52.500 Hasjoebidencuredcancer.com?

00:48:53.760 I don't know.

00:48:54.220 I'm not there right now.

00:48:55.240 Let's go to the website.

00:48:56.100 Hasjoebidencuredcancer.com?

00:48:58.500 Right now, because he did promise.

00:49:00.040 Now, one of the first things you'll see on the video is the video of Joe Biden during the campaign promising that he would cure cancer if elected.

00:49:05.680 So, this is not just us saying, wow, this is a crazy campaign promise.

00:49:08.720 I've heard no one ask him about this campaign promise.

00:49:13.000 No one.

00:49:14.260 But the question, hasjoebidencuredcancer.com?

00:49:18.400 The answer now is?

00:49:20.280 No.

00:49:20.800 Oh, wow.

00:49:21.240 Cancer still exists as of Wednesday, July 10th.

00:49:23.680 Dang it.

00:49:24.180 Damn it.

00:49:25.000 You're so close.

00:49:26.300 So close.

00:49:27.060 And yet, so seemingly far away.

00:49:30.600 Let's go to Patty in Connecticut.

00:49:32.340 Hey, Patty, you're on the Glenn Beck Program with Pat and Stu.

00:49:34.740 Thank you for taking my call and covering this very important subject.

00:49:37.500 I actually am pro-life.

00:49:38.700 I'm a former critical care nurse, registered nurse, and I worked for about five, six years in an OBGYN office.

00:49:44.960 And it actually enlightened me to where they're coming from and what people are thinking.

00:49:49.460 You know, I think people are in an impossible situation sometime, and they anguish over it.

00:49:53.700 They don't want to, but their situations are so constrictive that they are not able to afford a child and don't have any support systems in place.

00:50:02.500 I would think we would benefit a lot from looking for solutions, having women's center, with counseling, with options, with people who sit down and trying to steer people for abortions, talk to people and see what we can do for them to actually facilitate them being able to have the life.

00:50:20.640 And people are tormented later in their life over decisions when they have had abortions.

00:50:27.120 So it stays with people.

00:50:29.300 So many, and if they had free ultrasounds, offer them women's centers with health care, with counseling, with options, and the ultrasound, the sonogram is so very important, and it connects them with their child in life.

00:50:44.620 And it will actually, I think, actually remedy a lot of it.

00:50:47.920 We have to realize that we have been indoctrinating people for decades now, and we have conditioned them to accept this.

00:50:55.700 They know inside their heart they don't want to, but they've made it okay because they've actually had family members and others who have been forced in the same positions, and this is what they chose to do.

00:51:05.580 They do carry the burden, and they carry the loss.

00:51:09.020 So we need to actually help women, help them make decisions that will best benefit their life, the future of this country, and the life of that child, and put them on better notes, offer support, instead of just ending the life of a child.

00:51:22.340 Patty, thank you very much.

00:51:24.020 Could have been a pre-born commercial.

00:51:25.160 I was going to say that.

00:51:25.780 Exactly.

00:51:26.180 It sounds like a pre-born commercial.

00:51:27.420 By the way, pre-born, this is not a paid commercial, but that is exactly what they do, and they're doing it all over the country.

00:51:33.560 That's one of the reasons we've partnered with them.

00:51:35.720 They're a fantastic organization.

00:51:37.340 Phenomenal.

00:51:37.580 That is doing almost all of that.

00:51:38.700 And they really care.

00:51:40.220 Yes.

00:51:40.620 And they don't just talk the women into carrying the baby full term.

00:51:45.700 They also help afterwards.

00:51:47.200 Up to two years after.

00:51:48.820 So the question, kind of a difference slightly of what pre-born's doing and what Patty's suggesting, is she wants the government to be a little bit involved, or maybe the Republican Party.

00:51:57.660 To be fair to the Republican platform, that is sort of indicated in the platform.

00:52:04.560 They have language in there that says basically to try to come up with some way of supporting mothers who are in these tough times that have to make these tough decisions so that they don't make the wrong one.

00:52:14.440 They do sort of refer to that in the expanded document a little bit.

00:52:17.960 They basically say, no late-term abortion, and we should support moms after birth.

00:52:23.920 There's some sort of language like that.

00:52:26.680 I think that's a good idea.

00:52:28.560 I don't know necessarily, of course, as a person who likes small government, I don't necessarily love all this stuff.

00:52:32.620 I like what pre-born's doing better, but that's a rational thing.

00:52:36.800 You have to do everything you can to make these decisions more easy for moms.

00:52:42.500 Show them the alternatives, like adoption, for instance.

00:52:45.900 Yeah.

00:52:46.460 Yeah.

00:52:47.440 All right.

00:52:48.100 Chris in Indiana.

00:52:50.680 Hi.

00:52:51.000 Go ahead.

00:52:51.420 Hi.

00:52:52.080 Hi.

00:52:52.460 We've been wanting to overturn Roe for, what, 50 years now?

00:52:55.440 And now that it's done and the states can make their own laws, here comes the pro-life movement wanting to get the federal government involved again.

00:53:04.020 I think that's a bad strategy.

00:53:06.880 I think that provokes the exact opposite of what we want.

00:53:10.640 I think it's much more likely to have a pro-choice nine-month bill passing through Congress and signed by some president than it is for a pro-life bill.

00:53:20.480 And I just think it's a bad strategy.

00:53:22.780 I'm pro-life.

00:53:23.700 I can't think of anything more sinful or ugly than abortion or selfish, for that matter.

00:53:29.140 But I just think it's a bad strategy.

00:53:30.980 Thank you very much.

00:53:31.900 Thank you.

00:53:32.300 Appreciate that.

00:53:32.880 Although I'm not saying that it shouldn't go to the states.

00:53:37.320 It should.

00:53:38.240 I'm just saying the Republican platform is a statement of beliefs and principles, right?

00:53:46.920 Foundational beliefs.

00:53:48.420 And it also can have policy.

00:53:50.360 I mean, to me, the way to get rid of abortion in the country legally is actually not a national abortion ban.

00:53:57.700 It is a constitutional amendment barring the practice that used to be, by the way, put up by Republicans all the time.

00:54:05.320 And yes, it would fail.

00:54:06.680 But so keep putting it up there until it succeeds.

00:54:10.360 We all we especially us thought Roe v.

00:54:13.940 Wade would always be intact.

00:54:15.980 Right.

00:54:16.420 We never thought the Supreme Court would overturn Roe v.

00:54:19.660 Wade.

00:54:20.180 And that happened.

00:54:21.620 So right.

00:54:22.280 Maybe one day the constitutional amendment could happen.

00:54:24.820 Go back to the days where you'd look at polling on gay marriage and the left would be like, I, we want gay marriage.

00:54:31.720 And everyone would be like, huh?

00:54:33.760 Gay marriage.

00:54:34.760 It's got like 12% support.

00:54:37.400 Good luck with that, buddy.

00:54:39.960 Legalizing marijuana is another one like that.

00:54:42.740 In fact, go back long enough and you'll find interracial marriage with 4% support in this country.

00:54:49.000 Right.

00:54:49.760 And obviously you'd be starting at a much higher level for a constitutional amendment for abortion.

00:54:56.180 It would be really hard.

00:54:57.660 And it's supposed to be really hard to amend the Constitution.

00:54:59.960 But a worthwhile.

00:55:02.500 Endeavor.

00:55:03.040 Endeavor, I think.

00:55:03.840 Absolutely.

00:55:05.180 Kevin in North Carolina.

00:55:06.780 Hi.

00:55:08.800 Yes.

00:55:09.340 So where has compromise actually gotten the Republicans or the conservatives as a movement?

00:55:14.520 You know, being one of them.

00:55:17.320 I would have thought that we would learn by now that they keep moving the marker.

00:55:21.320 The other side keeps moving it little by little by little.

00:55:24.860 And if you look at the abortion issue to begin with, we keep hearing about rape and incest, rape and incest.

00:55:31.360 Well, what percentage of abortions are actually related to rape and incest?

00:55:36.000 Almost none.

00:55:36.440 It's horrible as it is.

00:55:37.160 Yeah, it's very tiny.

00:55:39.060 It's more about making money.

00:55:40.900 This is a business.

00:55:41.700 There's a lot of people that make a lot of money off baby killing.

00:55:45.460 And I just think that it's solid.

00:55:48.460 We should move on.

00:55:49.300 Some people may differ with that.

00:55:51.160 But being a father of three young children, my oldest is six.

00:55:55.380 To me, I don't see any movement on this.

00:55:58.720 Because if you move on this, then you're going to move on everything else.

00:56:01.000 You're going to move on gun rights.

00:56:02.300 You're going to move on all these different topics.

00:56:04.920 And that's just how, you know, I feel about it.

00:56:07.700 I mean, I'm sure you could get 50 different opinions.

00:56:09.960 But for me, I think our Republicans as a whole, we're weak.

00:56:14.300 And it's because we keep bowing to this sort of stuff.

00:56:17.640 Like, okay, yeah, we won't do that.

00:56:19.180 Oh, you're right.

00:56:20.020 We need to back off.

00:56:21.800 Yeah.

00:56:22.060 Why?

00:56:22.960 Yeah.

00:56:23.400 And it's interesting because I think you see the leftist activists don't bend on this stuff, right?

00:56:29.680 Never!

00:56:30.260 They say what they want.

00:56:31.200 Never.

00:56:31.700 They keep going for it until they get it.

00:56:33.700 And they keep going and going and going.

00:56:35.020 That being said, Barack Obama ran for president saying he was against gay marriage when obviously he wasn't, right?

00:56:42.820 Yeah.

00:56:43.020 So the second time he wound up changing that.

00:56:45.500 But in 2008, he ran for president and made a pragmatic decision, I guess.

00:56:50.780 I mean, I'm trying to argue the other side here a little bit.

00:56:52.840 But, like, you know, if you're thinking about politics, maybe that was the right decision.

00:56:57.080 He wound up getting it done.

00:56:58.980 You know, so I think you can argue that.

00:57:00.960 To me, I would just have liked – I don't necessarily think you need to dive into every policy that's going to – how you're going to do this, you know, what you're going to do in each state.

00:57:10.740 What I think would have been nice is a message of moral clarity, that every life deserves a chance at living.

00:57:20.760 You know, that is – you don't necessarily need to dive into every little bit of policy.

00:57:24.620 But it is – it's disconcerting that, you know, they're really clear about men being in women's sports, which, look, we're – I'm passionate about.

00:57:31.960 That shouldn't happen.

00:57:33.280 Me too.

00:57:33.560 But it's way less important than abortion.

00:57:37.000 It's not even close.

00:57:38.680 If – look, let's be honest about it.

00:57:41.040 I didn't care at all about women's sports before Caitlin Clark anyway.

00:57:44.340 If men dominated all of women's sports, eh, I'd probably shrug my shoulders a little bit, with the only exception if I have a daughter.

00:57:51.400 So now I kind of care if this happens to her.

00:57:54.060 But women's sports to me, not foundational American stuff.

00:57:57.120 And I love – you know, again, I do actually care about that issue.

00:58:02.620 I don't want to blow it off.

00:58:03.440 But comparing it to a life not being able to live, it's just not close.

00:58:11.300 And that's in the platform.

00:58:12.800 We're really morally clear about when not being in women's sports.

00:58:15.880 That's in the platform.

00:58:17.100 We can't be clear about abortion?

00:58:18.580 It's amazing.

00:58:19.880 It's despicable, really.

00:58:21.620 It really is.

00:58:22.380 It's because, you know, yeah, there's a big difference there.

00:58:27.020 A big, big difference.

00:58:28.800 All right, you got a trophy?

00:58:30.620 A man got a trophy in a woman's sport?

00:58:33.240 It's bad.

00:58:33.920 Or, yeah, it's bad.

00:58:35.200 It's bad.

00:58:35.600 It's irritating.

00:58:36.420 It is.

00:58:37.140 But it's not the death of a baby.

00:58:39.740 It is not.

00:58:40.680 No.

00:58:41.480 888-727-BECK.

00:58:43.680 More coming up in one minute.

00:58:46.600 All right, since the start of the Swords of Iron War in Israel on October 7th,

00:58:50.940 we have seen death and destruction in the Holy Land.

00:58:53.520 For more than 40 years, International Fellowship of Christians and Jews has been on the ground

00:58:57.540 in Israel and within hours of the war starting.

00:59:00.600 And every day since, they've been feeding the hungry and protecting the vulnerable.

00:59:04.840 The attacks continue in the North and the South in Israel, but there are resilient survivors

00:59:09.300 who bravely share their stories in a series the Fellowship calls Faces of Iron.

00:59:14.120 Survivors like Danny, whose beloved daughter and her husband, were burned alive on October

00:59:20.120 7th by Hamas terrorists.

00:59:22.260 Danny's a commander of the volunteer fire and rescue in his community.

00:59:25.800 Despite the fact that there was fire equipment nearby, Danny could do nothing as his daughter's

00:59:29.940 house burned to the ground.

00:59:31.060 Good God.

00:59:32.080 These are the types of people that IFCJA is helping.

00:59:35.220 Christians like you support Israel through the International Fellowship of Christians and

00:59:39.420 Jews is that support that helps these survivors remain steadfast and strong.

00:59:44.000 To hear more stories like this one and to show your support, visit supportifcj.org.

00:59:52.300 Sound like Biden there.

00:59:53.860 Supportifcj.org.

00:59:55.400 It's an important one.

00:59:56.520 Please stand up for Israel.

00:59:59.600 Supportifcj.org.

01:00:01.420 10 seconds.

01:00:01.920 Station ID.

01:00:02.280 It's Pat and Stu for Glenn this week.

01:00:14.860 I think part of the problem is that for years we were told, hey, don't even talk about abortion.

01:00:23.680 Okay?

01:00:24.040 This is too controversial.

01:00:26.000 It's too divisive.

01:00:27.940 And you're not going to get anywhere with anybody anyway.

01:00:30.660 You're not going to convince anybody to be pro-life who's not.

01:00:34.020 And you're not going to convince anybody to be pro-choice who's pro-life.

01:00:37.560 So just don't talk about it.

01:00:38.920 And we went along with that.

01:00:40.300 And we believed it.

01:00:41.300 We were like, yeah, okay.

01:00:42.380 All right.

01:00:43.160 You're right.

01:00:43.880 That's probably too divisive.

01:00:45.840 And so year after year after year, it got worse and worse and worse because the left

01:00:52.940 completely controlled the discussion.

01:00:55.040 And then finally when we jumped in and we got a president who believed in the cause, at least

01:01:05.060 to a certain extent, and put in three Supreme Court justices who were absolutely pro-life.

01:01:12.820 And he kind of was okay with the litmus test on that too.

01:01:15.740 The left has always been okay with, well, are you pro-choice?

01:01:18.660 And for the left, if you weren't pro-choice, you couldn't be a Supreme Court justice.

01:01:24.260 So I think Trump kind of went along with that theory, just the opposite.

01:01:28.820 And you had to have a litmus test that you were pro-life.

01:01:31.700 Yeah.

01:01:32.080 And he did.

01:01:33.240 And it got Roe v. Wade overturned.

01:01:35.960 Incredible.

01:01:36.840 Incredible success.

01:01:37.760 Something we thought could never happen.

01:01:39.320 And it's probably defensible to just say, look, the platform doesn't mean that much.

01:01:43.560 And Donald Trump has a good record on this topic.

01:01:46.140 Just trust him.

01:01:47.340 Once he gets in office, he'll be the same guy.

01:01:49.260 And that's probably true.

01:01:50.860 Right.

01:01:51.040 Like, he'll probably be pro-life.

01:01:52.760 I am concerned that he just seems very nervous about it.

01:01:56.420 Yeah.

01:01:56.780 You know, he doesn't seem as strong as he was when he ran the first time.

01:02:03.240 Look, it's risky.

01:02:05.440 I've talked to a lot of real conservatives who actually are pro-life people who really care

01:02:09.860 and just say, look, this is toxic right now politically.

01:02:12.500 It's a problem.

01:02:13.560 People are losing elections.

01:02:14.980 Good people who actually are pro-life are losing elections over this.

01:02:17.960 And we just can't make it the focus this time.

01:02:20.060 Where's our friend Dan on this?

01:02:21.500 Dan Andros, who is one of the most pro-life people I know.

01:02:24.820 Oh, I mean, he's definitely on our side.

01:02:26.820 He's definitely.

01:02:26.940 He's the same.

01:02:27.960 Yeah.

01:02:28.260 He's not saying, yeah, you need to moderate your position on this.

01:02:31.600 No.

01:02:31.620 I mean, it's just tough to moderate when you're talking about children's lives.

01:02:37.460 I don't know.

01:02:38.420 I mean, I can understand political calculation.

01:02:41.600 And I think like the correct position for a politician is probably, look, we want there

01:02:46.800 to be no, we want, we're pro-life.

01:02:49.280 We will take each step that we can take so that fewer children are, have their lives expired

01:02:56.080 in this way.

01:02:57.060 Right?

01:02:57.500 That doesn't mean we're going to get everything right now.

01:02:59.820 We're not going to get the constitutional amendment that Stu wants.

01:03:02.620 It's not going to happen.

01:03:03.620 At some point it might.

01:03:05.100 And we should take every bit of ground we can get as it goes towards that direction.

01:03:08.780 But like right now, what we can probably get is the states and improve the state laws.

01:03:11.980 That's probably what we can get right now.

01:03:13.540 It's a rational position.

01:03:14.660 Yeah.

01:03:15.400 Let's go to Gary in North Carolina.

01:03:17.560 Hey, Gary, welcome.

01:03:18.580 Hey, just really quickly, if they pass this and they put that in there, then the answer

01:03:23.700 is no, it's, it's a line I'm not going to cross.

01:03:26.180 I'm not going to vote for Trump.

01:03:27.580 We'll not vote for an RNC candidate that supports that.

01:03:31.940 I just won't.

01:03:32.980 We keep yielding ground, you know, North Carolina, both, both our senators in 2022 voted for the

01:03:38.780 Save the Marriage Act.

01:03:40.580 And so my senators are getting progressively more left than conservative.

01:03:46.300 And I'm just, I'm tired of the, yeah, we'll put you in, you'll change.

01:03:50.700 And then you just drift to the left instead of stand firm on issues that are very clear.

01:03:55.520 And so if they cross this line on abortion, then, you know, I won't vote for them.

01:04:00.860 It's interesting.

01:04:01.380 Thank you, Gary, for the call.

01:04:02.860 Even if you listen to Gary and you say, gosh, you can't, we're not going to vote for

01:04:05.620 Donald Trump.

01:04:06.060 Like, this is going to be terrible.

01:04:08.220 Like, the party needs to hear those voices.

01:04:10.460 Those people do exist.

01:04:11.900 And, you know, people who are super passionate about this topic and will not bend on it,

01:04:17.600 in a close election, they really matter.

01:04:21.040 And so I think there is a way.

01:04:22.980 And in a state like North Carolina.

01:04:24.600 Yeah.

01:04:25.040 Which is a, yeah, swing state.

01:04:26.560 There is a way, I think, to make those people feel comfortable without blowing up, you know,

01:04:31.440 every suburban, you know, mom from the Donald Trump campaign.

01:04:37.160 Like, I understand, you know, I know I'm not going to get everything I want on this.

01:04:41.420 I get it.

01:04:42.060 I get it.

01:04:42.660 I know I'm not going to be pleased.

01:04:44.000 I got it.

01:04:45.160 But I think you can do something for these people who, by the way, have been the foundation

01:04:50.360 of the party for the past 50 years.

01:04:54.100 Yep.

01:04:54.460 You can't just blow them off completely.

01:04:56.660 I just, it's a very risky strategy if you do that.

01:05:01.320 Yeah.

01:05:02.040 I mean, the RU486 thing, maybe that's the biggest issue for me because that's where most abortions

01:05:11.640 come from now.

01:05:12.700 Especially now.

01:05:14.160 You know, first, I mean, especially when you have access in these areas, you know,

01:05:18.400 being cut off by good, sensible laws.

01:05:20.840 Mm-hmm.

01:05:21.800 They are now just shipping these things in from India.

01:05:24.340 They're just getting the pills shipped in from India.

01:05:26.220 And like that, well, okay, that doesn't necessarily.

01:05:28.020 It wasn't all that long ago where RU486 wasn't even legal in America.

01:05:33.000 I don't know, 15 years?

01:05:34.980 20 at the most?

01:05:38.020 Glenn Beck.

01:08:40.420 Yeah.

01:08:40.800 Yeah.

01:08:41.100 A lot of great stuff on the network.

01:08:42.980 It's been growing so fast.

01:08:43.860 By the way, new documentary is coming out.

01:08:45.740 I've got a new one coming out later this month, maybe, or next month.

01:08:48.520 I don't know.

01:08:48.760 It's the next few weeks on sort of the controversies with DEI, as it, you know, as DEI in the sky.

01:08:57.820 You know, the fact that, like, hey, are we hiring air traffic controllers based on the color of their skin?

01:09:03.340 That seems like a bad idea.

01:09:05.180 Wow.

01:09:05.700 We go through that.

01:09:06.520 I talked to a guy who got a perfect score on the air traffic control test and did not get a job because his racial answers did not line up to what, I mean, his skin was the wrong tone, basically.

01:09:23.600 I go through the whole thing with him.

01:09:24.620 Wow.

01:09:24.920 And I talked to him, he's suing the government over this, and it's incredible, like, not to mention how broken down the infrastructure is when it comes to air traffic control, to the extent that they are literally, to this day, it is what year?

01:09:40.360 2024?

01:09:41.360 Mm-hmm.

01:09:41.600 They are still using floppy disks.

01:09:47.260 What?

01:09:48.000 In 2024, a lot of the stuff.

01:09:51.940 I barely even remember what a floppy disk is.

01:09:55.180 Right.

01:09:56.060 Right.

01:09:56.820 I couldn't believe it.

01:09:58.100 I was talking to this guy, an expert in this field.

01:10:00.480 He's like, yes, here it is.

01:10:01.500 He shows me the documents.

01:10:02.720 What?

01:10:02.920 They still do handwritten logs of flights.

01:10:07.240 Wow.

01:10:07.680 Entering the handwritten.

01:10:10.320 Incredible.

01:10:10.680 It is absolutely insane, and so that's coming up, and these have been released basically like every month, a new documentary on a new topic from, you know, a different host of Blaze TV, really good series called Blaze Originals.

01:10:22.520 Can't tell you how much great stuff there is on Blaze TV right now, and if, last pitch for this, if you are going into this election cycle, and you are looking at the way the media is covering it, and you think to yourself, holy crap, we are in serious trouble.

01:10:39.840 We need to have some actual news coverage about these events and what is going on, I can't encourage you enough to be part of Blaze TV, because we have put tons of resources, tons of effort into making sure you're going to get the best election coverage going into November and beyond.

01:10:55.940 So don't miss it, blaze tv.com slash Glenn.

01:10:59.340 The code is GLENN30TRIAL.

01:11:01.940 You get 30 bucks off, plus a free week.

01:11:04.700 Check it out.

01:11:05.780 Come visit.

01:11:06.540 See if you like it.

01:11:07.660 We'd love to have you.

01:11:08.300 So we've been talking about the Republican platform and how it barely mentions anything about abortion, so a little strange, and are you okay with that?

01:11:23.000 Are you okay with compromise on this particular issue?

01:11:25.500 Let's go to William in Kentucky.

01:11:27.220 Hey, William.

01:11:29.200 Hey, how are you guys today?

01:11:30.700 Good.

01:11:31.980 First time caller.

01:11:33.260 Thanks for doing it.

01:11:34.100 We appreciate it.

01:11:34.740 But I am perfectly okay with the new platform.

01:11:39.200 Okay.

01:11:40.280 I am, just to, you know, I'm agnostic, so I'm kind of straddle the fence on where life begins.

01:11:49.880 I know you guys believe, I'm assuming, you believe life begins at a conception.

01:11:57.700 And I'm not there.

01:11:59.740 Yeah.

01:12:00.340 I have no idea when life begins.

01:12:02.700 And I am perfectly okay with compromising to an extent.

01:12:09.040 Late-term abortion, I'm absolutely opposed.

01:12:12.820 But I think first trimester abortion is perfectly reasonable.

01:12:17.700 Now, me, personally, I am pro-life.

01:12:23.480 I would never want any of my children to have an abortion.

01:12:26.880 I would not do it.

01:12:28.680 If anyone came to me and asked me about it, I would give them the pro-life spiel.

01:12:34.700 Mm-hmm.

01:12:35.020 Yeah, I can tell you feel strongly about it.

01:12:39.740 The spiel.

01:12:40.440 When are you going to spiel language?

01:12:41.760 I'll give you the pro-life spiel.

01:12:44.880 Okay.

01:12:45.460 So you wouldn't err on the side of caution then, necessarily, William?

01:12:51.100 I lean more towards the woman's right to choose.

01:12:55.400 Because I believe if there is a God, if there is a God, and life begins at conception, and

01:13:01.500 it's a sin against God, I feel God will sort it out at the end.

01:13:06.140 Well, God can sort out late-term abortions, too.

01:13:08.280 And also murders when you're 45 years old, right?

01:13:10.820 I mean, God's going to sort all that out.

01:13:12.760 You don't really have a choice on that stuff.

01:13:15.100 No, it's interesting, because I think, you know, I think it's, to me, it's pretty clear.

01:13:19.920 But I can, you know, a lot of people have these issues of figuring these lines out.

01:13:24.100 I would just appeal to your sense of, there's a lot of things I don't know, a lot of things

01:13:28.560 that I'm not an expert in.

01:13:30.820 And when I have the opportunity to err on the side of life, if I'm admitting I'm not sure,

01:13:38.200 like, if I don't know where that line is, why would I make the line later?

01:13:41.760 I would think you'd want to protect life.

01:13:45.080 And I think, if we think about this in a way of just doing what we can to consider the person

01:13:52.060 who we all know will be a person, right?

01:13:54.980 Like, this is not, like, it's not going to be, you know, a fern.

01:13:58.260 This is eventually going to be a human being.

01:14:00.120 If we can kind of think about what this is, because I don't, I will say, William, and I

01:14:05.400 really seriously, legitimately appreciate your call in explaining this, because you are in

01:14:09.860 probably the majority.

01:14:11.000 I think the majority does support first-term abortion.

01:14:13.720 Second and third term, it's not even close.

01:14:15.900 Overwhelmingly, Americans oppose it.

01:14:17.520 First term is not that way.

01:14:19.160 And I think it's because, yeah, I don't know, you don't see the picture really on the ultrasound.

01:14:24.180 It doesn't really look like a baby yet and all that.

01:14:26.460 But you do know...

01:14:28.140 And the woman's right to choose thing has been really compelling to people.

01:14:32.340 Well, okay, yeah.

01:14:33.720 And I agree.

01:14:34.460 You should choose on your own body.

01:14:35.740 But there's another body at stake here.

01:14:38.740 And that's the one inside of you that's a separate body with separate DNA and separate

01:14:44.640 limbs and eyes and ears and a brain and a heart and all these things that matter.

01:14:50.940 If you're saying only the woman can choose and it's between her and her doctor, well,

01:14:58.060 okay, but you're just completely discounting the other body inside, right?

01:15:03.120 And to me, that is so wrong.

01:15:05.960 We lost William there.

01:15:07.300 But I think, you know, it comes down to if you're going to have a middling position on

01:15:12.360 this, right, you have to pick a day.

01:15:15.820 You have to pick a moment.

01:15:17.280 You have to pick a second where this turns from something that's totally fine into a

01:15:22.360 crime, right?

01:15:23.920 It turns from something that is just a clump of cells into a human body that is the life

01:15:32.260 is ending.

01:15:32.740 If you're like a person says, okay, that's seven months, whatever it is.

01:15:36.440 Well, why isn't it, you know, six months and 31 or 30 days?

01:15:40.900 Why isn't it?

01:15:41.580 You're going to have to give me, you're going to have to draw a second where that clock ticks

01:15:47.680 and that turns from nothing into a life.

01:15:52.300 Yeah.

01:15:52.440 That decision's really easy when you make it at conception.

01:15:55.400 It's not easy.

01:15:56.980 And to be frank, doesn't make any sense to put that at three months or four months or 15

01:16:04.480 weeks or six weeks.

01:16:07.340 Like a lot of people now put it at 21 weeks because that seems to be when.

01:16:10.920 When the fetus is viable.

01:16:13.020 That's that was when the baby can survive outside the womb today.

01:16:16.160 It is right.

01:16:16.940 It was 24, 25, 26 weeks when they did Roe versus Wade.

01:16:19.840 It could be changed next year.

01:16:21.840 Exactly.

01:16:22.380 We don't know.

01:16:23.100 And at the end of the day, it doesn't make any sense to make that determination because

01:16:29.240 what you're doing is you're, I mean, I thought about this with a, what was the guy in Philly?

01:16:33.200 The guy who went to prison, abortionist.

01:16:35.740 Oh, yeah.

01:16:36.640 You know what I'm talking about.

01:16:37.280 Grover.

01:16:39.560 Wasn't it?

01:16:40.240 Yeah.

01:16:41.420 Look that up and we'll figure it out.

01:16:42.980 I can't remember his name off the top of my head.

01:16:44.340 It should be one that's in the, and I could feel Abby Johnson, who's incredible on the

01:16:48.660 life issue, yelling the name at the radio right now.

01:16:51.260 So I apologize for not remembering this monster's name.

01:16:55.380 Luckily, he's no longer in our lives.

01:16:57.000 He's been put away for a very long time.

01:16:58.820 Um, but what's fascinating about the, his story was many of the abortions he, Kermit

01:17:06.420 Gosnell, Kermit.

01:17:07.360 I knew it was a weird name.

01:17:08.400 Kermit Gosnell.

01:17:09.560 I had the wrong Sesame Street.

01:17:11.520 You did?

01:17:11.960 You actually went to Grover.

01:17:16.320 No, it was Kermit.

01:17:17.560 And I almost blamed Grover Norquist for this.

01:17:20.260 He is not guilty of these crimes.

01:17:22.340 It is, it is, uh, Kermit Gosnell.

01:17:24.820 And what's fascinating about that, a lot of people are like, gosh, that was the worst

01:17:28.880 thing I've ever seen.

01:17:29.740 This man was taking babies and killing them late term, ripping them out and ending their

01:17:35.340 lives.

01:17:36.600 Many of the abortions, uh, that he committed, the murders he committed happened a week

01:17:43.520 after the deadline.

01:17:44.600 Yeah.

01:17:45.400 Meaning if he had done this stuff a week earlier, he's not in prison.

01:17:49.700 He's at a country club with a Porsche.

01:17:51.760 Yeah.

01:17:52.540 Right.

01:17:52.800 What, what kind, what sane society would do this, throw a guy in jail for 50 years for

01:18:02.200 a two or three day time period where he does the exact same thing that makes no sense at

01:18:08.540 all.

01:18:09.360 And I think the problem here, when you're talking about this at some level, government has to

01:18:15.340 make these sort of indiscriminate lines, but morally, we certainly don't have to make

01:18:20.440 them.

01:18:20.660 And the, look, it's just not about choice to put this last, and we have a million calls

01:18:27.560 on this.

01:18:27.800 We'll get to them here in a second.

01:18:29.080 It's not about women's choice.

01:18:30.240 This is not a women's choice issue in any way, because frankly, if you talk to any,

01:18:34.820 if God came down today and came on the air and just came into this third chair we have

01:18:39.240 here, it was like, hello, Pat and Stu.

01:18:41.560 And said, by the way, I really appreciate all the stuff you say about abortion, but actually

01:18:46.860 I don't care.

01:18:47.740 It's not a big deal to me.

01:18:49.660 If, until they come out of that birth canal, basically it means nothing to me.

01:18:53.620 So I appreciate where you guys have been, but honestly, you don't have to care about that

01:18:57.520 other life anymore because it's not life.

01:18:59.100 Let's just say it happened.

01:19:00.080 It's not going to happen.

01:19:01.040 Let's just say it happened.

01:19:01.940 If it happened, none of us would care.

01:19:05.780 You could go ahead, abort, abort, abort, abort, abort.

01:19:08.740 If it's not life, I don't care if you abort it.

01:19:12.300 Secondarily, if it is life, if God came down to liberals and said, this is, whatever their

01:19:16.380 God is, came down to liberals and said, hey.

01:19:18.760 Well, it'd be Gaia.

01:19:19.660 It is.

01:19:20.360 Gaia comes down and says, hey, liberals.

01:19:24.260 I know what you've been saying about the whole, hey, you can kill children in the womb thing,

01:19:29.380 but wow, that really matters to me.

01:19:30.940 You can't, that's real life in there.

01:19:33.340 In theory, you would assume every liberal would say, holy crap, it is murder.

01:19:38.120 Well, then of course we don't want it to happen.

01:19:40.700 The point is only about the life in the womb.

01:19:44.220 It is not about women's choice at all.

01:19:47.180 The women, the woman going through this is incredibly important.

01:19:50.860 And it's why you have, you know, we talk about supporting them after the birth.

01:19:54.800 We talk about helping them through these decisions.

01:19:57.440 It is incredibly important and not easy.

01:19:59.620 You know, God forbid you go through one of these terrible scenarios that ends in a pregnancy,

01:20:03.260 not easy at all.

01:20:03.980 At the end of the day, it's about, the decision is made about the life.

01:20:09.320 Conservatives, if it was just removing a few cells, a clump of cells that we did not think

01:20:13.620 was life, we wouldn't care.

01:20:15.480 No conservatives like, I oppose women's rights to remove tumors.

01:20:20.580 Like there's no conservative with that position because it's not about women's choice.

01:20:24.300 It's about the other life.

01:20:26.080 Right.

01:20:26.660 Exactly right.

01:20:27.560 All right.

01:20:28.120 I've been right to you.

01:21:47.360 Pat and Stu for Glenn.

01:21:59.060 Let's go to Kent in Utah.

01:22:02.360 Hey, Kent.

01:22:02.920 You're on the Glenn Beck program with Pat and Stu.

01:22:05.160 Thank you.

01:22:06.200 Happy to be here.

01:22:08.320 I wanted to let you know, from my position on abortion is I am wholly against it.

01:22:13.700 I think it's, as you guys have described, I think it's murder, but I think it's the sin

01:22:19.880 of our generation.

01:22:21.680 That being said, as we've listened to the discussion today, it reminds me of the negotiations that

01:22:30.440 the delegates had during the signing of the Declaration of Independence, where there was

01:22:35.440 a paragraph in there about slavery.

01:22:38.120 And as the days became, as it became time to approve or not the Declaration of Independence,

01:22:45.920 John Adams, I believe, was vehemently against removing the paragraph.

01:22:50.280 But if he had not done so, it would never have been approved.

01:22:54.600 Well, it wouldn't have been approved unanimously.

01:22:56.700 That's true.

01:22:57.440 There were two states opposing it.

01:22:59.540 Which was required to have it pass.

01:23:01.920 And so the step the men took, I believe, was to concede their values in some way against

01:23:11.380 slavery to get the independence first.

01:23:14.480 And then fight that battle later, which they did with the death of 700,000 Americans.

01:23:21.100 I don't know if I would necessarily put that on top of my resume for decisions all the time.

01:23:26.840 I know.

01:23:27.400 It didn't necessarily turn out.

01:23:28.600 But I mean, like, I think it's a rational argument that pragmatism is real.

01:23:33.840 It's not all just people folding for their own personal benefits.

01:23:37.980 Sometimes you have to do these things.

01:23:39.760 You know, sometimes it's not where I stand on it, but I do understand why people are there.

01:23:46.160 And I've talked to, you know, real conservatives who really think like, look, they...

01:23:49.640 And I think there's a reason to believe as well that maybe Donald Trump gets in there and

01:23:55.080 he's walking these lines for politics now and he gets in there and he is the same guy

01:23:59.320 he was in 2016, which obviously turned out pretty well for pro-life causes.

01:24:03.680 So, I mean, I think that's a totally defensible position.

01:24:07.860 I just wish there's a little bit more, you know, a little bit more for in the platform.

01:24:12.180 That being said, maybe nobody cares about it.

01:24:14.660 Maybe it's just like, it's just meaningless and no one ever reads them anyway.

01:24:18.460 And why should we bother?

01:24:19.820 Who cares?

01:24:20.340 I just, it's kind of an important issue, Pat.

01:24:24.240 Important one to me.

01:24:25.520 Me too.

01:24:26.720 Me too.

01:24:27.340 888-727-BECK.

01:24:30.060 It is Pat and Stu for Glenn on the Glenn Beck Program.

01:24:35.680 The Glenn Beck Program.

01:24:50.340 Welcome to the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

01:25:19.080 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:25:27.260 All right, Pat and Stu for Glenn.

01:25:29.680 888-727-BECK.

01:25:33.160 It's over now.

01:25:34.620 It's over.

01:25:35.300 Yep.

01:25:37.380 The real decider for politics in America has spoken.

01:25:43.440 We'll tell you the fate of the president of the United States in 60 seconds.

01:25:50.520 Well, you know, maybe next time you're thinking about what to watch on TV, you just flip on a show, cooking show for dogs.

01:26:01.180 And they can just pop the, you know, the crappy dog food that everybody seems to feed their dog.

01:26:06.240 And this is that brown dead food and turn it all the way up in the oven and burn it.

01:26:10.640 And then the dog will just leave and look for human food or possible other option.

01:26:15.140 Just going to throw this one out there.

01:26:16.360 Use Rough Greens.

01:26:17.220 If you love your dog, use Rough Greens.

01:26:19.740 Why?

01:26:20.100 Well, it's not dog food.

01:26:21.060 It's a supplement developed by naturopathic doctor Dennis Black.

01:26:24.940 You just sprinkle it on top of the dog food.

01:26:26.860 So you got this brown food.

01:26:27.980 You know, the dog can eat that.

01:26:29.320 It is, you know, but you got to liven it up a little bit with the Rough Greens.

01:26:33.400 First of all, your dog's going to love it and it's going to get all the nutrients that it needs.

01:26:37.780 So what do you do?

01:26:38.940 Well, they got a special deal for you right now.

01:26:40.380 Go to roughgreens.com slash Beck, roughgreens.com slash Beck, or call 833-GLEN-33.

01:26:46.420 They're going to give you your first trial bag free.

01:26:49.560 It's right, free.

01:26:50.060 All you got to do is pay for the shipping.

01:26:51.660 Call 833-GLEN-33, 833-G-L-E-N-N-33.

01:26:57.280 Call today.

01:26:57.940 We do still have some wide-ranging and interesting takes on the abortion issue that we'll get to here in a few minutes.

01:27:09.040 But we got to get this breaking news to you because it's that important.

01:27:13.660 For those of you wondering whether you should be supporting Joe Biden to step down as the nominee or supporting him as remaining the nominee, we now have our answer.

01:27:23.760 We know what you've been waiting for.

01:27:25.480 You've been waiting for the decider.

01:27:27.940 To speak on this.

01:27:29.340 And he has now.

01:27:31.020 He has.

01:27:31.560 He has.

01:27:32.240 George Clooney has announced his position.

01:27:34.660 So it's over.

01:27:35.440 It's over.

01:27:36.140 One way or the other, it's over.

01:27:38.360 We played you a very suspicious announcement from Nancy Pelosi earlier on the program.

01:27:44.980 We have that handy by any chance.

01:27:46.240 Listen, this is bizarre because Joe Biden came out and has been saying all week, I'm not going anywhere.

01:27:52.300 For two weeks now, almost.

01:27:53.140 It'll be two weeks tomorrow.

01:27:54.280 Yeah.

01:27:54.420 He's been saying it the whole time, over and over and over and over again.

01:27:57.940 And starting Monday really put the full court press on this.

01:28:01.280 I'm releasing a letter.

01:28:02.320 I am staying in every speech.

01:28:03.980 I am staying in.

01:28:05.620 And we have not heard much from Nancy Pelosi on this topic.

01:28:08.220 We finally did hear from her on MSNBC today, specifically challenged on what she thinks should happen.

01:28:16.500 Here's what she said.

01:28:17.180 Does he have your support to be the head of the Democrats?

01:28:19.500 As long as the president had the president.

01:28:21.860 It's up to the president to suicide if he is going to run.

01:28:25.220 We're all encouraging him to make that decision because time is running short.

01:28:33.220 The, I think, overwhelming support of the caucus, it's not for me to say I'm not the head of the caucus anymore, but he's beloved.

01:28:43.600 He is respected.

01:28:44.860 Is he?

01:28:45.560 And people want him to make that decision.

01:28:48.540 He has made.

01:28:49.240 He has said, he has made the decision.

01:28:50.940 He has said firmly this week.

01:28:52.080 Multiple times.

01:28:52.560 He is going to run.

01:28:54.120 Do you want him to run?

01:28:56.020 I want him to do whatever he decides to do.

01:28:58.900 Yeah.

01:28:59.060 And that's, that's the way it is.

01:29:00.660 Whatever he decides, we go with.

01:29:02.360 Well, yeah, he's, he already said he decided.

01:29:05.020 That's amazing.

01:29:06.100 It is amazing.

01:29:07.520 I mean, I can't take a side on that.

01:29:09.620 You have to.

01:29:10.320 It's so, it's so awkward and so intentional.

01:29:14.020 Yeah.

01:29:14.580 She is cold as ice.

01:29:18.600 Cold as ice, man.

01:29:20.160 You know, she, man, she's a machine.

01:29:24.000 Even in her age that she can't say decide anymore.

01:29:26.680 She's still a cold blooded political machine.

01:29:30.120 It's up to the president to suicide.

01:29:32.440 To suicide.

01:29:33.420 It really is up to the president to suicide.

01:29:35.140 Now, George Clooney does not even address.

01:29:38.320 What Nancy Pelosi said.

01:29:39.760 The society, the society of the president.

01:29:42.040 No.

01:29:43.460 But we have seen another major official come out as well.

01:29:48.900 TMZ kind of cornered George Stephanopoulos.

01:29:51.720 This is after the interview and everything.

01:29:54.300 And asked him, hey, like, what do you think about?

01:29:58.320 And it's amazing that he would think.

01:29:59.960 I don't think Stephanopoulos knew he was being recorded.

01:30:03.060 But I mean.

01:30:03.600 How do you not know?

01:30:04.360 You're, you're a big time news anchor.

01:30:07.280 You're supposedly a journalist.

01:30:09.720 You got to be careful with that stuff, right?

01:30:11.760 But he wasn't.

01:30:12.700 No.

01:30:13.140 The question was, do you think Biden should step down?

01:30:15.640 You've talked to him more than anybody else has lately.

01:30:17.560 And George's response was, quote, I don't think he can serve for more years.

01:30:22.120 Now.

01:30:22.680 He's apologized for that.

01:30:24.000 Yeah.

01:30:24.280 Why would you apologize for your opinion on that?

01:30:26.400 Or he's apologized for telling the truth.

01:30:28.520 The first time he's ever done it.

01:30:29.700 So now he's very nervous.

01:30:31.180 Like, he's lost his entire character of lying.

01:30:34.020 And he's told the truth.

01:30:35.880 It's a fascinating thing because you know who else knows that he won't serve for more years?

01:30:39.640 All humans.

01:30:43.120 Yeah.

01:30:43.820 All human beings know this is not possible.

01:30:47.960 He's not going to make it to 87 years old in the White House.

01:30:51.040 That's not going to occur.

01:30:52.180 But George Clooney is out, Pat.

01:30:55.480 And he says this, a new headline, op-ed for the New York Times, which has really been leading the charge on this stuff from the beginning.

01:31:03.040 Interestingly.

01:31:03.820 Uh-huh.

01:31:04.300 He says, I love Joe Biden, but we need a new nominee by George Clooney.

01:31:10.700 Holy cow.

01:31:11.700 Now, you might say, okay, again, George Clooney is a very prominent actor.

01:31:16.540 Huge fundraiser, though, for the Democratic Party.

01:31:18.920 That's the important thing here.

01:31:20.420 And he just held a massive fundraiser for him that I think they took in the most money in a single night ever.

01:31:25.540 He mentions this.

01:31:26.280 Yeah.

01:31:26.440 Last month, I co-hosted the single largest fundraiser supporting any Democratic candidate ever a month ago for President Biden's re-election.

01:31:36.880 Yeah, it was like $30 million in one night.

01:31:39.000 He says, I love Joe Biden as a senator, as a vice president, and a president.

01:31:42.880 I consider him a friend.

01:31:44.000 I believe in him.

01:31:45.120 Believe in his character.

01:31:45.980 Believe in his morals.

01:31:47.580 It's just incredible.

01:31:48.940 Yeah.

01:31:49.140 I don't know how you could believe in that.

01:31:50.120 In the last four years, he's won.

01:31:51.680 I mean, the guy did have a tequila company.

01:31:53.380 Maybe he's drunk writing this.

01:31:54.880 I believe in his morals.

01:31:56.800 In the last four years, he's won many of the battles he's faced.

01:32:00.640 But the one battle he cannot win is the fight against time.

01:32:05.660 Wow.

01:32:06.040 That was beautiful.

01:32:07.160 Beautifully put.

01:32:08.000 None of us can, Pat.

01:32:09.300 Oh, okay.

01:32:09.760 It's devastating to say it.

01:32:11.180 But the Joe Biden I was with three weeks ago at the fundraiser was not the Joe big effing deal Biden of 2010.

01:32:24.400 He wasn't even the Joe Biden of 2020.

01:32:26.500 So he's admitting that he noticed the decline when he was with him.

01:32:32.040 Before the debate.

01:32:33.580 Oh, my gosh.

01:32:34.880 That's interesting to me.

01:32:36.800 This is an interesting nugget.

01:32:37.920 You raised $30 million for the guy.

01:32:39.840 And now, only now.

01:32:41.200 Imagine.

01:32:41.860 A month later, we're hearing that he wasn't in good shape.

01:32:45.100 Can you imagine being one of these donors?

01:32:47.500 Wow.

01:32:47.600 He just got bilked out of $30 million.

01:32:51.540 Yeah.

01:32:51.880 And they're just like, oh, yeah, by the way, we knew the whole time he had no chance of being president.

01:32:56.340 Listen to the way he phrases this.

01:32:57.940 Wow.

01:32:58.420 It's devastating to say it.

01:32:59.460 But the Joe Biden I was with three weeks ago at the fundraiser was not the Joe big effing deal Biden of 2010.

01:33:04.980 He wasn't even the Joe Biden of 2020.

01:33:06.960 He was the same man we all witnessed at the debate.

01:33:12.780 That's huge.

01:33:14.840 Huge.

01:33:15.340 So it was not a one-time thing.

01:33:18.280 He is saying it was not.

01:33:20.120 Which will, though.

01:33:20.780 Of course.

01:33:21.620 I mean, this is silly.

01:33:22.340 But come on.

01:33:22.880 But he's admitting it.

01:33:23.840 He's admitting that he saw it.

01:33:25.500 Oh, he goes on.

01:33:26.480 He says, was he tired?

01:33:27.820 Yes.

01:33:28.560 A cold?

01:33:29.620 Maybe.

01:33:30.560 But our party leaders need to stop telling us that 51 million people didn't see what we just saw.

01:33:38.120 And that, I mean, what a reinforcement that a guy who's this big an ally of Joe Biden,

01:33:44.980 enough to hold this fundraiser and talk all of his Hollywood big shot friends into donating up to $30 million.

01:33:55.080 It's not a piece, but collectively.

01:33:57.400 It's a lot of money.

01:33:57.900 That's a lot of money.

01:33:59.560 I mean, if you've ever done a fundraiser, you know they're not easy, you know?

01:34:04.180 Even for great causes, let alone crappy causes like this one.

01:34:08.300 Yeah.

01:34:08.580 So, $30 million is raised, and you've got this guy who raised it saying, yeah, he's bad.

01:34:16.960 He's in bad shape.

01:34:18.540 Yeah, he can't continue.

01:34:20.960 This is not the same dude that people think they voted for in 2020.

01:34:26.440 That's incredible.

01:34:28.140 That's huge to me.

01:34:29.440 Wow.

01:34:30.120 Yeah.

01:34:30.320 And I think, look, the Clooney thing is big.

01:34:33.140 That Pelosi clip.

01:34:34.080 And the Pelosi thing.

01:34:34.920 Is massive.

01:34:35.600 Yeah.

01:34:36.060 Because this is someone in leadership basically saying, hey, Joe, what was your answer on that?

01:34:41.900 You should think about it again and answer again.

01:34:44.160 Well, that's what she's saying without saying.

01:34:47.120 Right.

01:34:47.560 She's saying, you're wrong, Joe.

01:34:49.980 Think about it again.

01:34:51.340 Because it's not like she didn't hear him say it.

01:34:54.520 She knows he said it.

01:34:55.640 Right.

01:34:55.900 And the host states it right back to her face.

01:34:59.700 Yeah.

01:35:00.040 I mean, she is basically telling, that's basically her saying publicly, step down.

01:35:05.300 And to the point where she's so old and also can't speak, she says he has to secide whether he's going to step down.

01:35:12.960 She's incoherent, too.

01:35:14.660 It's up to the president to secide.

01:35:18.140 It is.

01:35:19.200 Is that, like, it's a combination, I think, of secide and decide?

01:35:24.040 And decide, I think, yeah.

01:35:25.180 Or it's just a drunk slur.

01:35:27.000 Or is it step aside and secide?

01:35:29.620 I don't know.

01:35:30.100 You're giving her too much credit.

01:35:31.100 I think she's just hammered.

01:35:32.220 Yeah.

01:35:32.420 But I will say that that is, that's significant.

01:35:36.160 And I am, if I am Joe Biden, I don't care what George Clooney says or what Nancy Pelosi says.

01:35:46.040 It's my nomination.

01:35:47.080 I probably care more about what George Clooney says than Nancy Pelosi.

01:35:51.860 Because he's the big fundraiser.

01:35:53.680 Nancy Pelosi's not doing squat for you.

01:35:55.560 I would just get angry at Pelosi, right?

01:35:57.300 Like, screw you.

01:35:58.160 You're 100 years old, too.

01:35:59.920 Right.

01:36:00.740 I mean, is she older than him?

01:36:02.200 I want to say she's older than him.

01:36:03.420 Am I wrong about that?

01:36:04.020 No, I think she is.

01:36:04.740 She is?

01:36:05.180 I think she is.

01:36:05.940 Is she 83?

01:36:07.160 I want to say she's 83.

01:36:09.440 Now, she did step down from leadership.

01:36:11.780 She's 84.

01:36:12.860 Wow.

01:36:13.140 She did not.

01:36:13.660 She did step down.

01:36:14.420 I mean, she's older than Mitch McConnell, Joe Biden, and Donald Trump by significant margins.

01:36:20.400 She did step down from leadership, but not because she said she was incapable of doing

01:36:25.200 the job.

01:36:25.680 And she kept the seat.

01:36:26.800 Yeah.

01:36:26.980 She has nothing to speak for.

01:36:28.220 I mean, like, it's insanity that she's doing this.

01:36:31.920 Now, part of this is because I really want Joe Biden to remain the nominee, and that's

01:36:34.980 probably somewhat revealing to Democrats who might be listening as to what they should

01:36:40.880 do, right?

01:36:41.560 Like, if Pat and Stu are saying, I think Joe Biden should remain the nominee, you probably

01:36:48.740 don't want him as the nominee.

01:36:50.100 I know if I were a Democrat, I would have been arguing years ago, no way another term with

01:36:55.160 this guy.

01:36:55.860 No way.

01:36:56.580 We lucked out in 2020.

01:36:58.660 Somehow we're here.

01:36:59.960 I don't want Kamala Harris either.

01:37:02.980 I want a real freaking primary.

01:37:06.180 Start it.

01:37:07.020 Make him fight his way through this field like every other person.

01:37:10.660 If he wins, he wins.

01:37:12.400 But I don't want him.

01:37:14.240 He should step down immediately.

01:37:15.580 In fact, I would probably have been demanding him stepping down a couple of years ago and

01:37:20.280 from the presidency, not just the campaign.

01:37:23.980 I want him out from there, even as a Democrat.

01:37:26.760 If you care about the country, that's what you would want.

01:37:29.700 Oh, yeah.

01:37:29.980 But I'm a Democrat, so I wouldn't necessarily.

01:37:31.420 Yeah, right.

01:37:32.120 That's the thing.

01:37:33.180 There you go.

01:37:35.120 All right.

01:37:35.460 Trip for 8.

01:37:47.880 Call 800-906-2440 for details about credit costs and terms.

01:37:51.640 Wouldn't it be nice to live in a world where your credit card balance wasn't hit with compound

01:37:55.120 interest?

01:37:56.240 It would be a great world to live in.

01:37:58.960 Unfortunately, we don't live in that world.

01:38:01.180 And if you're not making those payments, you've got to deal with the compound interest.

01:38:03.760 You've got to deal with the credit cards.

01:38:05.040 You've got to deal with all the debt up to your eyeballs.

01:38:07.740 Well, what about the kind of debt that can wipe out your savings?

01:38:10.540 What about the kind of debt that can set you back years, if not permanently?

01:38:13.360 Do you want to avoid that kind of debt?

01:38:15.080 Probably.

01:38:16.040 If you're a fiscally responsible person, you should be able to find a little time in your

01:38:19.660 day to give the mortgage consultants over at American Financing a quick call.

01:38:23.160 See if you can deal with this stuff.

01:38:24.700 They're going to go over your finances.

01:38:25.880 They'll help you look through all this.

01:38:27.100 They'll see if there's some areas that can be improved.

01:38:30.040 For instance, your mortgage can really be made to work for you.

01:38:33.040 It can help you get out of high interest debt fast.

01:38:36.400 That's the kind of thing that happens for people when they get in touch with American

01:40:12.540 on.

01:40:12.860 I'm liking what you're saying right now.

01:40:14.240 I'm just saying.

01:40:15.060 You know.

01:40:15.320 You're the one that books Jeffy every week.

01:40:18.520 Speaking of which, you're going to be gone tomorrow, right?

01:40:20.920 I am.

01:40:21.320 Going on a little vacation with my wife a couple of nights.

01:40:23.340 Going to a cooler locale?

01:40:24.700 Yes.

01:40:25.020 A place that's not 134 degrees every day.

01:40:28.380 That will be very, very nice.

01:40:30.080 Well, global warming, if you weren't such a global warming denier, maybe we could do

01:40:35.080 something about this, Stu.

01:40:36.220 Maybe we could change the climate on this planet.

01:40:38.540 What would you do to...

01:40:39.260 If you would just get on board, okay, with spending the kind of money it's going to take,

01:40:45.580 and living the kind of life that it's going to take to change the climate.

01:40:50.140 How much money are we talking about here?

01:40:51.240 I'd like...

01:40:52.320 Chicken feed.

01:40:54.460 90 to 100 million.

01:40:56.280 Or, I'm sorry.

01:40:58.360 Trillion.

01:40:59.880 Wait.

01:41:00.460 Trillion?

01:41:01.060 Maybe quadrillion.

01:41:02.380 Okay.

01:41:02.540 Now it's probably quadrillion.

01:41:04.440 Wait, but hold on.

01:41:05.200 Let me just ask you this one minor question on this.

01:41:07.220 Okay.

01:41:07.580 One minor question.

01:41:08.340 You were telling me a little while ago that you already passed the most consequential

01:41:13.080 climate bill of all time, the Inflation Reduction Act.

01:41:20.400 Right.

01:41:21.080 So now you need another $100 trillion?

01:41:24.520 Another $100 trillion, yes.

01:41:26.700 Right?

01:41:27.100 Because I'm a little concerned that maybe this is a bottomless pit.

01:41:30.480 I need a million trillion thousand dollars to do it.

01:41:35.780 Okay.

01:41:36.040 A thousand trillion million, billion to do this.

01:41:41.340 And look, look, look, let me put it this way.

01:41:46.780 And I really mean that.

01:41:53.280 Did you beat Medicare?

01:41:54.060 I beat, I beat, I did beat Medicare.

01:41:57.400 Thank you for the reminder there.

01:41:59.260 You know, can I ask you just one more question while we're on the topic?

01:42:01.620 Because, you know, you're asking for $100 trillion.

01:42:03.720 Can I just ask you about.

01:42:04.560 A million, billion.

01:42:05.580 Can I ask you about $230 million for a second?

01:42:08.200 Okay.

01:42:09.000 That was the cost of the pier you built.

01:42:11.700 The pier.

01:42:12.120 It's a, and it, you know, it didn't do anything.

01:42:16.880 And now they're deconstructing it because it failed completely.

01:42:21.300 I love that story.

01:42:22.480 Oh my God.

01:42:23.080 I will say it might be my favorite story.

01:42:26.360 It is every Joe Biden policy in a nutshell.

01:42:30.960 It starts off with these big expectations, these incredible warm feelings for all the

01:42:36.660 good it's going to do.

01:42:38.300 Super altruistic.

01:42:38.540 Yeah.

01:42:38.760 We're actually going to feed the people that we're eliminating as well on the side.

01:42:46.300 But I mean, America does that, right?

01:42:48.680 We dropped food to the Afghans because the theory obviously is that we're just, we're

01:42:54.300 fighting against the government, not the people.

01:42:56.140 Right.

01:42:56.260 And so we're trying to feed the people and they're doing that again here.

01:42:59.940 And, but everybody said, look, Hamas doesn't want this.

01:43:05.280 No.

01:43:05.940 You're going to be attacked while you're building it.

01:43:07.800 And they were.

01:43:08.260 And they were.

01:43:09.500 But I think this is so reminiscent of all of their policies.

01:43:12.560 You got the supposed feel good intentions.

01:43:14.340 You got the gushingly positive media attention highlighting all the caring reasons we're doing

01:43:18.980 this.

01:43:19.540 Yep.

01:43:19.740 You've got the sort of legalistic rule bending they do on all this stuff.

01:43:23.200 This one was, we don't have any troops on the ground.

01:43:27.200 We've got troops on a pier 20 feet from the ground.

01:43:32.080 Like that's not, that's not real.

01:43:34.100 The backflips they had to do to make that work.

01:43:36.080 To make that work.

01:43:36.680 So ridiculous.

01:43:37.300 It never had a realistic possibility of solving the problem.

01:43:41.460 It was massively expensive.

01:43:43.600 It was massively over budget.

01:43:46.580 Of course, the result of it, we immediately knew it was doing less good than was promised.

01:43:52.960 And sure enough, Hamas didn't allow it.

01:43:56.780 And Hamas stole a lot of this.

01:43:59.220 We were actually helping terrorists with it.

01:44:01.520 The pier literally crumbled into pieces, just like all of his other policies.

01:44:06.480 And of course, the failure of the idea never really gets acknowledged.

01:44:12.720 We don't really have a conversation as to why we allowed this to happen in the first place.

01:44:18.200 I will say, I don't ever remember a bill being passed to fund $230 million.

01:44:23.380 They just redirected it from other sources.

01:44:24.960 But like, at some point, shouldn't they be held responsible for this massive failure?

01:44:31.020 No.

01:44:31.420 No, because nobody ever is.

01:44:33.760 Nobody ever is.

01:44:35.180 It's like they just built a building and it fell over.

01:44:37.760 I know.

01:44:38.040 Like wouldn't the construction company get some blame for that?

01:44:40.540 You would think.

01:44:41.280 You'd think.

01:44:41.780 But no, here, we're all going to just, they built a giant metal Lego set in the sea that

01:44:47.020 got rolled over the first time a wave came by.

01:44:50.140 And we're all like, gosh, there's a surprise.

01:44:52.100 Well, he really meant well.

01:44:54.500 Sure, he took $230 million.

01:44:56.780 Think about that amount, Pat.

01:44:58.460 Like all of the money you will ever pay in taxes your entire life went to fund one half

01:45:05.520 of one of the Lego pieces to build that pier.

01:45:08.800 That ended up in the ocean that did nothing for anybody.

01:45:13.540 We've been so desensitized to the money that the government spends, though.

01:45:16.580 People think $230 million is not bad.

01:45:19.980 It is really true.

01:45:21.240 That's not bad.

01:45:22.040 People don't even acknowledge it.

01:45:23.400 Nope.

01:45:24.120 I mean, I think it could be $230 billion and people might not be necessarily moved.

01:45:29.020 Yep.

01:45:29.960 It takes over a trillion dollars now to get us to even pay attention.

01:45:35.600 And that's how we wound up in the situation we're in.

01:45:38.040 Speaking of what's going on in the Middle East, did you see Kabbalah Harris' response

01:45:44.040 to the anti-Israeli protesters?

01:45:48.000 She was asked about, I guess, their motives and things.

01:45:52.240 And what she had to say was they're showing exactly what the human emotion should be.

01:45:59.060 Wait.

01:45:59.500 Huh?

01:45:59.840 What?

01:46:00.300 What does that even mean?

01:46:01.800 Showing exactly what the human emotion should be?

01:46:04.580 Is the human emotion that we should all hate Israel or Jews?

01:46:08.420 Or what are you talking about?

01:46:11.220 Just bizarre.

01:46:12.620 And these are the people leading the way.

01:46:16.200 And you wonder why we're in the situation we're in.

01:46:18.580 It's up to the president to suicide.

01:46:26.340 Glenn Beck.

01:46:27.540 For years, I was living in constant pain.

01:46:32.140 There were days I couldn't move my hands.

01:46:34.000 I couldn't paint.

01:46:34.660 I couldn't write.

01:46:35.460 Honestly, it was so bad I had a hard time even doing work.

01:46:38.700 I tried to tough it out and just grin and bear it until Tanya finally, after we went to the Mayo Clinic, we went everywhere.

01:46:45.200 And Tanya had heard about Relief Factor on the plays.

01:46:48.120 And she said, why don't you try that?

01:46:49.400 She kind of pretty much made me try it.

01:46:51.980 And it was amazing.

01:46:53.400 It's been a miracle.

01:46:54.320 Relief Factor is 100% drug-free.

01:46:56.400 It's a daily supplement that helps your body fight pain naturally.

01:47:07.060 And Relief Factor doesn't just mask pain.

01:47:09.600 It helps reduce or even eliminate it all day, every day.

01:47:13.600 So if everyday pain is affecting your life, don't go with mind over matter.

01:47:48.540 Pat and Stu for Glenn today.

01:48:03.040 888-727-BECK.

01:48:08.000 Don't forget, if you're looking for the tastiest cookie on the planet.

01:48:12.000 I'd love a tasty cookie.

01:48:13.780 Keksi.com.

01:48:14.820 How do I spell that?

01:48:15.660 K-E-K-S-I.

01:48:16.860 It's like sexy with a K.

01:48:18.220 Well, and spelled differently.

01:48:19.880 Obviously.

01:48:20.580 So it's nothing like, it just rhymes with sexy.

01:48:23.660 Okay.

01:48:24.160 That might be the better way to say it.

01:48:25.660 Yeah.

01:48:25.960 It rhymes.

01:48:26.920 That's about it.

01:48:27.820 Keksi cookies.

01:48:28.560 They're delicious.

01:48:29.300 You'll love them.

01:48:29.420 15% off right now, too.

01:48:31.120 All right.

01:48:31.480 My wife brought home, she experiments with stuff and tries out new flavors.

01:48:35.900 And we got this new flavor, coffee cake cookie.

01:48:39.320 Oh.

01:48:39.640 You like coffee cake?

01:48:40.340 Oh, yes.

01:48:41.120 Yes.

01:48:41.180 Cinnamon all over the top.

01:48:42.860 Oh, she brought it home.

01:48:43.840 And I, you know, I can't eat this because of diabetes.

01:48:46.200 But I did have a bite of it.

01:48:48.640 Oh, my gosh.

01:48:49.880 Wait, but.

01:48:50.400 Unreal.

01:48:50.840 Now, my understanding is.

01:48:51.760 It's available in August, but not right now.

01:48:53.860 My understanding is when you take a bite of something, you are eating it.

01:48:56.300 Is that not true?

01:48:57.380 No, I spit it out.

01:48:58.840 Oh.

01:48:59.360 Yeah.

01:49:00.120 Sure.

01:49:00.480 You did.

01:49:02.400 Yeah.

01:49:02.920 I just spit it right out.

01:49:03.820 But it was delicious.

01:49:04.760 Hmm.

01:49:05.500 All right.

01:49:06.160 So, who will Donald J. Trump select as vice president?

01:49:12.620 The speculation has been really rampant lately because there's so many rumors.

01:49:16.220 He's going to decide today.

01:49:17.700 He decided yesterday, but he's going to tell us tomorrow.

01:49:20.400 He's going to decide during the convention.

01:49:23.120 He's going to decide right before it.

01:49:24.760 He's going to decide after it.

01:49:26.060 There's not going to be a vice president.

01:49:27.800 I've heard all of it.

01:49:29.100 It's so ridiculous.

01:49:29.900 Which is it?

01:49:31.140 It's been fun in a way because if you know Donald Trump and you know the way he operates

01:49:36.000 and his campaign operates, this has just been him screwing with the media for months.

01:49:39.640 Yeah.

01:49:40.060 Like, you know.

01:49:40.760 He does enjoy that.

01:49:41.780 Yes.

01:49:42.120 It's just like a yo-yo.

01:49:43.360 He just keeps putting it out there and bringing it back in.

01:49:45.600 They have said literally every combination of everything.

01:49:48.880 He's already made the decision.

01:49:50.180 He won't make the decision for a long time.

01:49:51.940 He's got a huge field.

01:49:53.020 He's got only, he's down to the last couple.

01:49:54.420 Well, the latest report was he's down to three with two.

01:49:59.040 I actually heard two.

01:49:59.920 Two leaders.

01:50:00.800 And then they seem to be jamming Rubio in now.

01:50:03.180 Yeah.

01:50:03.500 So the two are Doug Burgum.

01:50:06.040 Burgum and him in effect.

01:50:07.160 Doesn't make any sense to me.

01:50:08.300 I don't understand that one.

01:50:10.140 I don't really get it either.

01:50:11.520 But I mean, he's supposedly good on energy.

01:50:14.660 Yeah.

01:50:14.900 You know, so, but like, that's, I don't know.

01:50:18.100 There was a thought at one point because of his fundraising difficulties several months

01:50:22.400 ago.

01:50:22.580 Yeah, that's not an issue now.

01:50:23.660 Not an issue.

01:50:24.280 Not to mention he's a billionaire.

01:50:25.660 If he wants to put money in his campaign, he's to put it in his campaign.

01:50:28.300 Yeah.

01:50:28.600 Right.

01:50:28.900 But, and of course he also has lots of other billionaires that support him.

01:50:32.260 I don't think, I don't think money is going to determine this election.

01:50:35.760 I don't, I never bought it.

01:50:37.040 And Burgum isn't, Burgum isn't like Elon Musk, right?

01:50:41.420 Like, isn't he only a hundred millionaire?

01:50:43.220 Like, he's not even a billionaire, I don't think.

01:50:45.220 I don't think so.

01:50:46.180 But he's, he's not like, again, that's a lot of money.

01:50:49.800 Yeah.

01:50:50.220 But throwing an extra hundred million dollars.

01:50:51.960 He doesn't live in a double wide trailer and he doesn't wonder where his next meal is

01:50:55.800 coming from.

01:50:56.220 That's true.

01:50:57.200 But he's, I don't think a billionaire.

01:50:59.180 The fact that he might throw a hundred million dollars of his personal money into this campaign,

01:51:02.620 does that really move the needle for you if you're Donald Trump?

01:51:04.740 Like, so?

01:51:06.140 Yeah.

01:51:06.780 It's not really going to make the determination as to who wins or loses this campaign, I don't

01:51:10.580 think.

01:51:10.780 Like, so Burgum is up there and then J.D.

01:51:14.780 Vance was the other one mentioned as the top two candidates.

01:51:18.100 Senator from Ohio, 39 years old.

01:51:21.640 He is very well aligned with the sort of America first MAGA platform.

01:51:26.400 Well, he's adopted all of the MAGA platform ideals.

01:51:28.920 Yeah, he's changed quite a bit.

01:51:30.240 He has changed quite a bit over the years.

01:51:32.080 He was a Trump critic in 2016, obviously well known for his book, Hillbilly Elegy, which

01:51:39.840 kind of gives you the terrible story of life in the Midwest and drugs and opioids and it's

01:51:47.540 it.

01:51:48.080 But he tells a story of the real problems of that area, which I think is an interesting

01:51:52.840 thing that's been a little overlooked with him.

01:51:54.800 A lot of people say, well, he's from Ohio.

01:51:56.420 He's going to win Ohio anyway.

01:51:57.860 True.

01:51:58.580 But Ohio is in a region of states that he really does need to win with problems.

01:52:04.140 He's incredibly well, you know, familiarized with.

01:52:08.600 He knows the issues affecting that region really well.

01:52:13.020 So I think that is something to consider politically.

01:52:16.240 And then the other one was mentioned was Marco Rubio.

01:52:19.560 As we talked about, there is an issue with two candidates coming from Florida, but it's

01:52:23.580 solvable.

01:52:24.080 They'll figure a way out of that if they want to pick Rubio.

01:52:26.620 Rubio is can be impressive as a politician.

01:52:28.780 I've seen him speak live before and he at times I think is really, really good.

01:52:33.260 I think we were really pleasantly surprised in 2015 when he came to Dallas and

01:52:37.400 you, me and Glenn went to the rally and were really favorably impressed by what

01:52:42.860 he had to say.

01:52:43.440 He was really good.

01:52:44.120 He was good.

01:52:44.920 And, you know, I think he will not hurt Trump.

01:52:48.420 He, you know, none of these guys, some make the argument that Vance is a little

01:52:51.800 risky on this front.

01:52:52.620 I will make the argument.

01:52:53.440 I think Burgum is actually risky on this front and everyone's saying he's the

01:52:56.600 safe choice.

01:52:57.580 He is totally unproven.

01:53:00.400 Yeah.

01:53:01.060 Totally unproven at this level.

01:53:03.880 You are taking a guy out of single A and pushing him into the majors.

01:53:07.400 And saying, well, he hit three 30 in the, in the minors.

01:53:09.640 Like, okay.

01:53:11.840 But, you know, Vance has been on television constantly.

01:53:14.580 He's gone through a major campaign recently.

01:53:16.840 He's been on media tours forever.

01:53:19.220 He, all of his stuff is sort of out there.

01:53:21.920 Rubio is even more well vetted, right?

01:53:24.680 Because he was actually a presidential candidate already.

01:53:27.480 He went through this fire already and dealt with some of the problems that are

01:53:30.340 associated with it.

01:53:31.120 I mean, I think Vance is a better, is a better communicator than Burgum is.

01:53:37.700 So I would be less worried about him having those, but like people criticize the

01:53:43.900 Sarah Palin choice because she was an unknown governor from a rural state with a, not

01:53:51.360 without a large population that seemed to have a decent record in that state.

01:53:54.860 And then she was put on that platform and there were issues.

01:53:58.160 I don't see why you wouldn't see that as a risk, at least with Doug Burgum.

01:54:02.420 They're acting like this guy, like is, you know, the most, he's been, he's been in our

01:54:06.160 lives for a hundred years.

01:54:07.460 No one knew who Doug Burgum was six months ago.

01:54:10.460 Unless you lived in North Dakota, when he announced for president, no one knew who he

01:54:15.220 was.

01:54:16.140 And now all of a sudden he's the safe choice.

01:54:18.860 Like that is, it might be true, but there is absolute risk there.

01:54:23.420 We have no idea how this guy performs on a stage like that.

01:54:26.600 The only thing we have is he was in a couple, he was only in one debate, wasn't he?

01:54:30.420 Maybe he was in two primary debates where Trump wasn't there and he was very forgettable.

01:54:36.840 So maybe the idea is, well, he'll be very forgettable in the campaign too.

01:54:40.560 And that's fine for Donald Trump.

01:54:42.520 Probably true, but man, I don't know.

01:54:45.100 That one seems like a risk.

01:54:45.960 So should we go through some of these other people that are possibilities?

01:54:49.840 Tell me if you think these are real possibilities.

01:54:51.840 Tim Scott, you think he's in it or out of it?

01:54:53.460 No, I think he's out.

01:54:54.760 I have not heard a lot of Scott buzz lately.

01:54:56.600 No.

01:54:57.640 So I don't think he's going to be the choice, but I wouldn't say he's completely, I wouldn't

01:55:02.800 be stunned if it was Scott.

01:55:04.700 I just don't think it's going to happen.

01:55:06.940 Here's one that has not been talked about, but I could see Trump potentially doing, which

01:55:12.900 is Glenn Youngkin.

01:55:14.140 You think there's any possibility of that?

01:55:15.580 I think there's a chance.

01:55:17.340 I know a very wealthy guy.

01:55:17.900 He did mention him last week or the week before.

01:55:20.900 Said, yeah, he's one of the names I'm considering.

01:55:23.020 Okay.

01:55:23.960 And what you like with Youngkin is he did very well with the suburban woman crowd that Trump

01:55:30.360 struggled with in 2020.

01:55:32.360 Issues like education and stuff, prominent issues, obviously, in this election, potentially.

01:55:37.380 And Virginia is a state where normally is not competitive, but right now is.

01:55:40.980 I mean, I think the polling from Virginia shows a pretty close race there.

01:55:44.620 Maybe he could help you there.

01:55:45.880 Obviously, if you win Virginia and you're a Republican, it's probably over.

01:55:48.880 You probably won the election already.

01:55:51.160 Tulsi Gabbard.

01:55:52.460 Ain't real.

01:55:53.540 I don't think so.

01:55:54.360 No.

01:55:55.020 I don't think there's a chance.

01:55:56.360 I would be shocked.

01:55:57.020 But there is an argument for it, right?

01:55:59.740 Like, especially the way he's handling abortion.

01:56:01.480 We just dealt with this last hour.

01:56:03.340 If you want to kind of softly soft play the abortion issue, you pick a basically a Democratic

01:56:09.460 woman who's pro-choice, who's pro-choice, and you stick around the ticket.

01:56:13.120 I think it's a terrible idea.

01:56:14.200 I do not want a Bernie Sanders campaign volunteer as the potential president of the United States.

01:56:18.420 But what I will say is I don't get to make that decision.

01:56:21.240 And I do like Tulsi Gabbard.

01:56:22.580 Yeah, I do too.

01:56:23.420 I like her.

01:56:23.940 But we're so easy on the right.

01:56:25.620 Anybody who looks like an oasis in the desert of liberalism, we're like, yes, please give

01:56:32.440 me that.

01:56:34.000 You know, and I think she benefits from that because she comes from the left.

01:56:38.580 She supported Bernie Sanders at one point for president.

01:56:44.200 But now, you know, she seems much more in line with a lot of what we believe.

01:56:49.460 And so, but there's too many differences for me.

01:56:52.880 Too many differences.

01:56:53.420 And again, if she's, I mean, you know, the candidate's 78 years old.

01:56:58.040 I know we keep talking about the other guy who's really, really old and looks like he's

01:57:01.580 about to collapse at any moment.

01:57:03.380 But, you know, Donald Trump, you know, a lot of people are completely cogent when they pass

01:57:07.360 away.

01:57:07.740 Like, I mean, he's past, he's right around the age expectancy.

01:57:11.140 And she could become president is kind of the point.

01:57:13.400 Yeah.

01:57:13.620 Yeah.

01:57:13.980 God forbid.

01:57:14.640 I hope it doesn't happen, obviously.

01:57:15.860 But I'm nervous about that.

01:57:17.400 This is an important pick.

01:57:18.800 Yeah.

01:57:19.240 Ben Carson.

01:57:20.020 Any chance you think he picks him?

01:57:21.160 I hope not.

01:57:21.740 I think no.

01:57:22.820 And he's mentioned him a few times, but I don't think so.

01:57:24.860 I don't think that's real.

01:57:25.580 I don't think he's really picking him.

01:57:26.840 No.

01:57:26.940 Vivek Ramaswamy.

01:57:28.440 I don't think so.

01:57:29.360 I mean, he...

01:57:29.700 Wouldn't be bad at all.

01:57:30.800 No.

01:57:31.520 I wouldn't mind that.

01:57:32.300 He would be consistent with the sort of platform that Trump has.

01:57:36.180 Like, there's a similarity there.

01:57:37.820 He has publicly ruled him out, but then seemingly ruled him back in later on.

01:57:43.200 So, I don't know.

01:57:43.640 Just keep a position in the White House spokesperson arena.

01:57:48.460 Keep that open for him.

01:57:49.900 Because...

01:57:50.200 He'd certainly be able to do that.

01:57:50.960 Imagine anybody better, as good as he is speaking and ad-libbing.

01:57:56.580 The press would hate him.

01:57:58.400 Oh, they'd hate him so much.

01:57:59.620 Oh, my God.

01:57:59.640 They'd hate him.

01:58:00.100 Because he would run circles around him.

01:58:02.440 Elise Stefanik.

01:58:03.680 I just don't think she's well-known enough.

01:58:05.700 She's also not super conservative.

01:58:07.040 She did do a great job on the Israel protests, I will say.

01:58:11.000 Yeah.

01:58:11.600 Christy Noem.

01:58:12.900 No.

01:58:13.220 It's over, right?

01:58:13.700 No chance.

01:58:14.100 The dog thing, I think, sunk that one, unfortunately, for Christy.

01:58:17.300 Yeah.

01:58:17.600 Nikki Haley.

01:58:18.380 No.

01:58:18.800 No.

01:58:19.120 No.

01:58:19.680 Mike Pence.

01:58:20.880 Mike Pence is on this list.

01:58:22.080 No.

01:58:22.560 I'm pretty sure he's not going to...

01:58:23.600 He hates Mike Pence now.

01:58:23.940 Wouldn't it be hilarious if he's just like, yeah, we're running it back?

01:58:28.280 I got Mike Pence on the ticket.

01:58:29.920 Trump Pence.

01:58:30.380 We don't even have to print new decals.

01:58:32.240 It'd be fun for a few days talking about it.

01:58:34.020 It would be hilarious.

01:58:34.800 Yeah.

01:58:35.880 We should go through where our most fun scenario is for how this plays out.

01:58:39.440 I have an idea for it.

01:58:40.700 All right.

01:58:41.040 Let me give you a couple more names before we do that.

01:58:42.560 Sarah Huckabee Sanders.

01:58:43.520 I think that's an interesting...

01:58:44.520 That's a possibility.

01:58:45.280 I think it's a small chance, but it's an interesting one.

01:58:49.040 She's been very loyal.

01:58:49.680 You know how important loyalty is to him.

01:58:51.980 Yeah.

01:58:52.260 And I don't know of anybody more loyal than she's been.

01:58:55.040 There was some conflict about her not endorsing early.

01:58:58.140 She didn't endorse Trump in the primary very early.

01:59:01.840 Right.

01:59:02.160 So there was some ruffled feathers, supposedly, about that.

01:59:06.480 Byron Donalds.

01:59:07.360 There's a chance of that.

01:59:08.160 He's been mentioned a lot.

01:59:09.060 I just don't buy it.

01:59:09.700 I don't think so, but...

01:59:10.160 He's not well-known enough.

01:59:10.700 It's not a bad pick.

01:59:11.420 No.

01:59:11.740 He's a good guy.

01:59:12.220 I like him, but I don't think that's going to happen.

01:59:14.720 Tom Cotton?

01:59:15.800 No.

01:59:16.220 No, I don't think so.

01:59:16.920 Any other...

01:59:17.800 No, I don't think so.

01:59:18.680 So here's my scenario for most fun thing that happens in this election.

01:59:22.140 Okay?

01:59:22.440 Mm-hmm.

01:59:23.160 All right.

01:59:26.900 Kamala Harris organizes a Kamala coup.

01:59:29.840 She gets the cabinet officials on board and they launch the 25th Amendment challenge and

01:59:38.000 get Joe Biden thrown out of office.

01:59:41.020 Mm-hmm.

01:59:41.120 She just decides she's going to take it.

01:59:42.800 All right.

01:59:43.620 Joe Biden is so angry about this that he decides, despite the fact he's been thrown out of the

01:59:50.380 presidency, by the 25th Amendment, he can stay on the ticket and decides to stay on the ticket,

01:59:58.720 holds on, names a new vice presidential possibility, whoever that is, and then loses terribly in

02:00:06.480 the election.

02:00:07.880 So...

02:00:08.380 That would be fun.

02:00:10.660 That...

02:00:11.380 That would be fun.

02:00:11.900 ...would be hilarious.

02:00:13.400 That's all.

02:00:13.660 I want that to happen.

02:00:15.300 It's a little like this sports talk radio scenario.

02:00:18.480 Oh, there's no chance of it happening, but that's what I want.

02:00:20.720 Bob from Brooklyn calls in and says, hey, Mikey, what if Mickey Mantle and Alex Rodriguez

02:00:27.580 played at the same time on the same team as Sandy Koufax, you think they'd win?

02:00:35.100 What is your Bob from Northport call that you're suggesting the most fun that you could

02:00:41.820 have in this particular election?

02:00:43.520 Do you have a crazy...

02:00:45.820 The most fun?

02:00:47.320 The one I'd like to see, obviously, for just best for America.

02:00:52.200 Yeah, that's not what I'm talking about.

02:00:53.140 I'm talking...

02:00:53.700 Ron DeSantis.

02:00:54.660 Wait.

02:00:55.500 Ron DeSantis.

02:00:56.260 How does Ron DeSantis get?

02:00:59.460 Okay, here's a scenario for that.

02:01:00.880 Uh-huh.

02:01:01.440 They go through the election.

02:01:02.780 All right.

02:01:03.040 Trump and Biden tie at 269.

02:01:07.820 Okay.

02:01:08.260 It goes to the House and the House selects Ron DeSantis.

02:01:12.040 Yeah, I can see that.

02:01:12.960 There you go.

02:01:13.520 Any day now.

02:01:14.220 Just look for it.

02:01:15.380 Any day now.

02:01:16.820 All right.

02:01:17.200 888-727-BECK.

02:01:27.000 The Glenn Beck Program.

02:01:29.620 We'll be right back.

02:01:31.000 Our endless money printing and record debt protecting wealth is more challenging than ever.

02:01:48.080 And if Biden is reelected, he's promised to make it nearly impossible.

02:01:51.520 The gold standard for wealth preservation has always been gold or silver, precious metals.

02:01:56.080 I strongly urge you to put a portion of your retirement portfolio in gold and silver.

02:02:00.600 I know, I know.

02:02:01.020 It's a tough decision.

02:02:01.940 And who should you work with to buy gold?

02:03:01.640 It's going to be great.

02:03:02.360 Don't miss it.

02:03:03.480 Again, Blazetev.com slash Glenn.

02:03:05.200 Glenn30TRIAL is the code.

02:03:07.680 Let me give you this from Charles C.W. Cook.

02:03:09.380 He writes, the press insists that they didn't know how bad it was.

02:03:12.620 They say they were as shocked as anyone by what they saw at the debate.

02:03:16.460 They contend they are not the perpetrators, but the victims.

02:03:20.300 If that's true, we ought to talk through its implications.

02:03:23.140 If it's true, then the press was duped and duped by the federal government of the United States of America.

02:03:28.220 If it's true, then the executive branch has been engaged in a massive and effective conspiracy to keep Biden's infirmity from the people who were supposed to report the news.

02:03:38.000 If it's true, then the White House fooled the media.

02:03:40.600 It outwitted the media.

02:03:41.960 It embarrassed the media.

02:03:43.600 If it's true, then the president and his political party colluded to suppress the ability of the sacred fourth estate to relay matters of public interest to the voters.

02:03:52.800 And in the process, it made a mockery of the First Amendment.

02:03:56.040 So is the press going to investigate that?

02:03:59.620 Certainly sounds like a big story to me.

02:04:01.800 And by investigate, I don't mean lash out at the president in the hopes that he'll be replaced by someone who does better in the polls.

02:04:08.200 I mean, find out how this happened in the first place.

02:04:10.760 Discover who knew, when, where, name names.

02:04:15.060 If Biden goes, he'll be replaced by someone, probably his own vice president.

02:04:18.880 How is the press going to make sure that she and her team don't do exactly the same thing on a different topic?

02:04:23.660 It's a great way to call them out on the carpet.

02:04:26.120 Because it's absolutely impossible that they were duped.

02:04:29.560 They weren't.

02:04:30.440 Unless you don't look at your own coverage.

02:04:33.980 I mean, jeez.

02:04:35.600 They knew.

02:04:36.440 They knew.

02:04:37.340 They knew what we knew.

02:04:38.100 They've always known.

02:04:39.020 And it's amazing that they play this game.

02:04:42.460 And, you know, with some people, it works.

02:04:45.000 Oh, they didn't know he was.

02:04:47.780 He'd suffered such decline.

02:04:50.180 Just happened.

02:04:50.980 When did that happen?

02:04:52.040 Nowhere.

02:04:52.580 Some minor thing popped up.

02:04:54.500 In the last week, he's really gone downhill.

02:04:58.460 Well, now we know from George Clooney, it was at least a week before the debate.

02:05:02.040 Oh, right.

02:05:02.480 That's when he started going downhill.

02:05:03.740 This deadline is going to be extended and extended and extended.
