The Glenn Beck Program - Who Wants to Be President？

00:00:00.000 First, can we spend a minute or so talking about LibertySafe and LibertySafe.com?

00:00:05.500 We love LibertySafe because they've been around for a while now.

00:00:08.400 And I feel like they were another one where it was like a small company when we first started talking about them.

00:00:12.120 And they get bigger and bigger and bigger.

00:00:13.560 And it's just because of their quality.

00:00:15.620 You know, these are things that you put a LibertySafe in your house.

00:00:19.220 It adds a little class to your house.

00:00:21.220 And I'm not a classy person.

00:00:22.740 So I would not be able to do that without the LibertySafe.

00:00:25.960 But these are the best made safes in the world.

00:00:28.320 These are safes that are, you know, you can drop, what is it, a ton concrete block on top of them.

00:00:34.000 And they will survive it where they'll put it against the competitors.

00:00:38.520 And the whole thing is just a giant thing of dust.

00:00:41.780 Like whatever is inside your safe is destroyed.

00:00:44.560 LibertySafe is a great safe.

00:00:47.460 And it's the best you can get.

00:00:48.760 And you can get it right now in 2019.

00:00:50.320 Give yourself and your family peace of mind with LibertySafe.

00:00:52.820 You can secure all your belongings and documents, jewelry, everything.

00:00:57.320 And with all the wildfires going on, this is another reason.

00:01:00.860 Because there's pictures of wildfires wiping out entire towns.

00:01:03.580 The only thing left is a LibertySafe.

00:01:06.020 Hey, I've got a prediction for you.

00:01:08.440 It's about California energy and wildfires.

00:01:10.800 I'll give that to you in just a second.

00:01:12.640 Again, you can put that in your LibertySafe and seal it and open it in a year.

00:01:17.360 And it will be true.

00:01:18.420 LibertySafe.com

00:01:20.040 LibertySafe.com is the place to go.

00:01:22.080 It's LibertySafe.com

00:01:23.880 Oh my gosh.

00:01:26.960 The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

00:01:29.160 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:01:31.280 I love Mondays.

00:01:32.760 Who's with me?

00:01:34.600 Wait.

00:01:35.660 Is this on?

00:01:36.500 I said, I love Mondays.

00:01:39.860 Who's with me?

00:01:41.960 Looks like somebody's got the case of the Mondays.

00:01:44.480 Oh man, that never gets old.

00:01:48.880 Welcome to the program.

00:01:50.380 We have more Democratic candidates.

00:01:53.860 Oh, everybody's so excited.

00:01:55.340 I want to be president.

00:01:57.580 You know, do you remember how serious Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer were the other day

00:02:03.640 when they gave their rebuttal to President Trump's address?

00:02:06.840 They made it seem like the government shutdown is absolutely apocalyptic.

00:02:11.520 You, I mean, people are suffering, Mr. President.

00:02:16.820 A lot of the Democrats have done the same.

00:02:20.440 On social media and CNN, they are telling Americans about the suffering

00:02:26.720 and how nobody in the Republican Party even cares about this.

00:02:31.440 Well, there is something else that is going on with the Democrats,

00:02:38.420 and that is apparently a pretty big party on the beach in Puerto Rico

00:02:44.320 doesn't really look good if you're a federal worker

00:02:49.240 and you're not getting a paycheck

00:02:51.880 and you see the Democrats partying on the beach.

00:02:56.740 We begin there in one minute.

00:02:58.780 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:03:04.340 New year.

00:03:05.780 Time for, you know, a new look, a new feel on everything.

00:03:10.400 By the way, we have to talk about my fat challenge.

00:03:13.340 Oh, yeah.

00:03:14.760 To get fatter?

00:03:15.820 Yeah, I can do it, I think.

00:03:16.800 I mean, I've been progressing well.

00:03:18.360 I've been going that way, and I think, hey, why don't I try the other way?

00:03:21.580 Because I know I can do this.

00:03:23.280 I know I can get fatter.

00:03:24.920 Can we actually not get fat and possibly get a little skinnier?

00:03:30.880 We'll talk about that.

00:03:31.660 I don't know what's on your stupid New Year's resolution thing that I don't make New Year's resolutions.

00:03:39.380 I hate them because I never do them.

00:03:41.380 But if you are sitting there and you're like, you know, I got to change things up,

00:03:46.200 or you're thinking I got to change my house because I want to sell it this spring, whatever.

00:03:50.160 However, the most effective thing you can do for the least amount of money to change the look of your home

00:03:57.020 and update it is blinds, blind shade, shutters, or drapes.

00:04:01.680 And you can find them now at blinds.com.

00:04:04.520 Cellular shades, Roman shades.

00:04:08.360 Roman shades, are those those big balloon things at the top of the...

00:04:12.160 Does anybody know?

00:04:13.100 I don't know what a Roman shade is.

00:04:14.360 I don't know what a Roman shade is either.

00:04:16.000 I don't think I want them.

00:04:16.900 Anyway, blinds.com has everything that you could possibly want.

00:04:21.060 And you'll get free samples, free shipping, free online design consultation.

00:04:26.340 You don't know where to start?

00:04:27.920 Place to start is blinds.com.

00:04:29.520 They've been doing this.

00:04:30.640 They've been doing this when Al Gore was still calling the Internet the information superhighway.

00:04:36.420 So they got it down.

00:04:38.320 It's blinds.com.

00:04:40.020 That's blinds.com.

00:04:41.280 Go there at blinds.com slash back.

00:04:43.600 And you're going to receive a discount on the thing that will really change the look of your home.

00:04:48.720 It's blinds.com slash back.

00:05:01.200 So they've been nibbling on some sponge cake and watching the sun bake.

00:05:05.700 And it's been great for the Democrats in Puerto Rico until the camera showed up.

00:05:12.080 And then when the camera showed up, it got ugly.

00:05:14.180 And I mean that in every possible way.

00:05:17.080 I don't know if you've seen the picture of the fat cats on the beach, but I'm going to say the same thing that I would say if I were on the beach.

00:05:24.840 I don't go to the beach because I know that cameras exist.

00:05:28.980 And I don't mean cameras like in the press.

00:05:30.900 I mean home cameras, my camera, no pictures of me on the beach.

00:05:36.220 Nobody wants to see it.

00:05:37.840 May I say it's pretty much true for all political, you know, all politicians.

00:05:44.360 I don't want to see you in your swimsuit.

00:05:46.160 Chris Christie looked pretty hot on the Jersey Shore that time.

00:05:48.740 Yeah, right.

00:05:49.140 I'll say that.

00:05:49.880 But at least he was sitting down.

00:05:52.000 Oh, that's not a good look.

00:05:52.920 I mean, he now he did have a shirt on.

00:05:55.980 Seen some of these guys standing up.

00:05:58.040 I mean, sitting down is the worst possible thing you can do as a fat man.

00:06:02.780 Have you seen Bob Menendez on the beach without a shirt?

00:06:07.160 I have not.

00:06:08.040 Nor do I want to.

00:06:09.380 But you can imagine it.

00:06:10.500 And I'm sorry to make you do that.

00:06:12.220 I mean, I'm not making you do that.

00:06:13.600 But once I say Bob Menendez without a shirt on the beach, you can't get that picture out.

00:06:20.280 No.

00:06:20.720 Okay.

00:06:21.020 Did they did they clear the island of underage girls before that was the first thing that

00:06:26.200 I thought I thought, you know, him on the beach talking to a woman in a bikini is not

00:06:32.520 flattering in any way whatsoever.

00:06:36.080 So the Democrats have have, you know, vacation now at the Seaside Resort and they went to a ridiculously overpriced version of Hamilton.

00:06:50.220 Tickets started at ten dollars, went as high as five thousand dollars.

00:06:55.460 Guess which one?

00:06:56.520 I don't think I don't think Menendez and the rest of the Democrats, you know, had the ten dollar tickets.

00:07:02.620 They weren't in the rafters.

00:07:03.880 No, no, they weren't.

00:07:05.420 No, they weren't.

00:07:05.960 So they were at the Hispanic Caucus bold pack that said this year's winter retreat promised to be our most wildly attended with over 220 guests, including thirty nine members of Congress.

00:07:17.680 Oh, great.

00:07:19.600 Golly.

00:07:19.980 So while people are struggling, people are struggling and this president doesn't get there on the beach in Puerto Rico watching Hamilton.

00:07:30.300 By the way, there was also in attendance one hundred nine different lobbyists.

00:07:35.640 R.J.

00:07:36.340 Reynolds was there.

00:07:38.100 Facebook was there.

00:07:39.460 Comcast, Amazon, Pharma, Microsoft, Intel, Verizon, and of course, all the unions like the National Educational Association.

00:07:50.120 This is how everything that gets done that you sit back and you're like, gosh, why would they even do that?

00:07:55.560 That doesn't make any sense.

00:07:56.340 Well, it's because they probably were some fat guy was on the beach with a bikini clad model and he had six drinks.

00:08:03.220 Not really a model either.

00:08:04.920 I didn't see the picture.

00:08:05.780 Yeah, that one didn't work out either for her.

00:08:08.020 All right.

00:08:08.220 But then the congressman was five drinks in and maybe a little too friendly and someone took a picture and like it's all House of Cards.

00:08:16.400 They threw Kevin Spacey out of there.

00:08:19.060 They should put him in Congress.

00:08:20.440 That would be a much better role.

00:08:21.340 He should actually go into the real, real Washington and just take a role there.

00:08:26.040 He'd fit in perfectly.

00:08:27.400 I was going to say, do you think there's really any difference?

00:08:30.160 I think he really actually would fit in perfectly.

00:08:33.960 Yeah, he'd probably be really successful.

00:08:35.380 Yeah, he would be.

00:08:36.020 He's very convincing.

00:08:37.140 He can pull off the speeches a lot better than some old congressman.

00:08:40.700 Yeah.

00:08:41.200 I think he should try it.

00:08:42.960 And I don't think any of it would have a problem with him.

00:08:45.320 Oh, and then they could probably get Congress to pay for all the lawsuits too.

00:08:49.140 This is his future career path right here.

00:08:51.040 This is the path for Kevin Spacey.

00:08:53.020 I think you're right.

00:08:53.960 I think you're right.

00:08:54.600 He already knows how to act like a politician.

00:08:56.840 No one obviously cares about opinions or policy anymore.

00:09:00.260 You just got to act like a politician and be able to handle those big moments when you're stressed.

00:09:05.780 Well, he could do that.

00:09:06.540 That's his gig.

00:09:07.600 Has Spartacus announced yet his candidacy?

00:09:10.080 No.

00:09:10.720 That is weird.

00:09:11.800 Because there is an argument to be made.

00:09:14.540 You need to get out there early.

00:09:17.660 That's why they think Elizabeth Warren.

00:09:19.000 Elizabeth Warren's goal was to apparently to beat Bernie Sanders to announcing so she can be the main socialist candidate.

00:09:26.360 Do we still have that?

00:09:27.220 Do we still have the audio of her getting getting herself?

00:09:30.480 I'm going to get me a beer.

00:09:32.900 Do we?

00:09:33.660 Because it's just it's just horrible.

00:09:36.980 Horrible.

00:09:37.380 She's actually worse than Hillary Clinton when it comes to delivery, which is really hard to say.

00:09:41.300 Oh, there's nobody.

00:09:42.300 There's nobody that could have beaten Hillary Clinton until Elizabeth Warren comes onto the stage.

00:09:48.060 Here's do we have that video?

00:09:49.560 OK, we're getting it's just so we have to have that handy because it's just so ridiculously bad.

00:09:56.600 Anyway, we had some other announcements that happened.

00:09:59.480 Yes, Tulsi Gabbard running for president from Hawaii, from Hawaii.

00:10:04.840 She is a very left wing.

00:10:07.320 And in fact, kind of running in that that area where she wants to kind of be to the left of of Bernie Sanders.

00:10:13.900 She is every policy you can think of, you know, Ocasio-Cortez.

00:10:18.340 Think Ocasio-Cortez.

00:10:19.220 That's essentially who she is.

00:10:20.280 She was Ocasio-Cortez before Ocasio-Cortez was Ocasio-Cortez.

00:10:23.800 She was Ocasio-Cortez when Ocasio-Cortez was serving drinks at a Mexican restaurant in Union Square.

00:10:29.820 So like three years ago.

00:10:31.020 No, well, not that long.

00:10:32.720 So and so she is having some issues because she's announced.

00:10:38.460 And, you know, of course, when you announce to be to run for president, people generally will look into your background, even apparently if you're a Democrat, which I didn't know.

00:10:45.260 I didn't know that happened on the left.

00:10:46.940 No, but I know they check in case in case you want to do something important like, you know, host the Oscars.

00:10:52.080 Then you have to know every tweet that has ever come out.

00:10:54.980 However, running for president as a Democrat, I didn't know you had any background check, but they have looked into her background and discovered that she apparently had some very, very strong anti-LGBTQIA plus viewpoints.

00:11:11.980 That's not a joke, by the way.

00:11:13.920 What do you mean that she didn't have those viewpoints or that LGBT?

00:11:17.420 I'm trying to get all.

00:11:18.160 Yeah, I know.

00:11:18.640 I know.

00:11:19.200 And I just want to point out that that's that's it's not a joke.

00:11:23.740 Well, Quilt Bag is also not a joke.

00:11:25.640 I know.

00:11:26.160 And Quilt Bag 2 is not a joke.

00:11:27.880 I know.

00:11:28.480 Quilt Bag 2 Electric Boogaloo is a joke.

00:11:30.560 Yes.

00:11:30.840 That's not actually true.

00:11:31.620 But I feel like if we get ahead with Electric Boogaloo, we can get all the groups that are coming in the future just kind of fit into those letters.

00:11:38.000 All right.

00:11:38.200 So she has an anti-Quilt Bag 2 kind of stance.

00:11:41.580 She does.

00:11:42.500 She does.

00:11:42.980 Her father, I guess, was a big anti-gay marriage activist back in the day.

00:11:48.660 They tried to push through an amendment to ban gay marriage.

00:11:53.740 And I think they were successful even in Hawaii.

00:11:55.640 This shows how fast this has changed over the past 10 or 15 years.

00:11:58.940 But she worked her father's group was promoting gay conversion therapy, which is something you're not.

00:12:06.700 I mean, this is not even a like, again, like forget what you think about that.

00:12:10.380 It's like that is not a position you can have as a left-wing candidate in the Democrat Party, right?

00:12:16.200 Ever.

00:12:16.780 Ever.

00:12:17.260 Ever.

00:12:17.600 Right.

00:12:18.000 And it's like if Kevin Hart, for a nothing joke 10 years ago, can't host the Oscars, the Democrats are going to elect a congresswoman who was for gay conversion therapy in the 2000s?

00:12:32.660 In the 2000s?

00:12:34.300 Like, there's just no way, I would think.

00:12:36.660 But she's trying to now back off of that.

00:12:38.880 Of course, she now says she totally disagrees with it.

00:12:41.240 And you should understand that she was won over to the viewpoint.

00:12:44.420 Basically, the same point Kevin Hart was making that no one gave him any benefit of the doubt for.

00:12:48.760 She's trying to make here.

00:12:49.680 He was doing it for a joke.

00:12:50.880 She, of course, was doing it for real.

00:12:52.520 She was an activist on the cause.

00:12:54.520 I know.

00:12:54.860 But she now wants to position herself as a vice presidential candidate, which would be great.

00:13:00.300 Diversity lives, I guess.

00:13:01.520 And that is a point to be made.

00:13:04.240 She doesn't even think she can be the president of the United States.

00:13:06.640 I think she thinks, can I be Bernie Sanders VP?

00:13:09.720 Can I be, you know, let's say Bernie Sanders wins.

00:13:13.000 Tulsi Gabbard, could that be the VP?

00:13:14.600 That's the sort of thing she's looking for.

00:13:16.060 Hey, maybe Putin's looking for a running mate.

00:13:18.180 That's possible, too.

00:13:19.020 We can ask about that.

00:13:19.940 Right.

00:13:20.360 Same thing with Julian Castro, right?

00:13:22.360 Like, does anyone think you're going from the HUD secretary to the president of the United States?

00:13:25.900 I mean, look, crazier things have happened.

00:13:28.740 However.

00:13:29.500 Really?

00:13:29.880 Yeah.

00:13:30.320 Crazier things have happened.

00:13:31.200 However, does anybody believe Julian Castro?

00:13:35.200 No.

00:13:35.320 Is it dynamic enough personality to pull that one off?

00:13:37.920 No.

00:13:38.240 My guess is no.

00:13:39.360 Yeah.

00:13:39.500 So, another person who's in there, like, if Elizabeth Warren were to win, Elizabeth Warren, Julian Castro?

00:13:46.540 Maybe.

00:13:47.640 Joe Biden?

00:13:48.880 Maybe.

00:13:49.380 You know, like, there's a certain amount of people.

00:13:51.780 There's three different categories here, I feel like.

00:13:53.240 You have the people who actually think they can win, or the people who are kind of going for VP, and then there's the people who are just trying to introduce themselves to you, so that in the future they can run for something big.

00:14:03.260 And honestly, Gabbard and Castro are probably more in that third category than even the second.

00:14:08.820 But it's going to be hard.

00:14:10.640 It's going to be an interesting road to see her try to explain that to Democrat activists all across the country.

00:14:15.880 Hey, I know, I know when you were, like, you know, like, when your kids that are now 18, when they were 10, I was working really hard against gay marriage and for gay conversion therapy.

00:14:28.100 But believe me, I'm now a left-wing candidate.

00:14:30.500 That's going to be interesting.

00:14:31.680 Yeah, I'm not even a Democratic candidate.

00:14:33.340 Yeah.

00:14:33.740 I am a hardcore left-wing candidate.

00:14:37.220 That's going to be an interesting pitch.

00:14:38.520 This is, this is, we get down, this is just, this is a buffet.

00:14:42.800 We have a two-year buffet of 20 Democrat candidates all trying to kill each other and move further to the left.

00:14:50.040 I love this.

00:14:50.340 This is going to be a glorious buffet of candy.

00:14:53.420 Yeah.

00:14:53.660 Every single day you're going to wake up with another one of these stories for the next two years.

00:14:56.720 Where you, where, where, where things like them partying on the beach half naked, really, just like that small potatoes.

00:15:06.060 Have you heard who else is running?

00:15:10.380 All right.

00:15:10.980 I've cleaned out a lot of the commercials and tried to streamline the show for you.

00:15:14.880 So we're back into the show within a minute in this half hour.

00:15:19.860 And we want to thank our sponsor, LifeLock, LifeLock.com.

00:15:23.600 There are so many things that are going on today with intrusions into your privacy and people taking information from you.

00:15:35.940 There was a story today on the front page of the blaze on how, how Google has patented some things where they want cameras in every single room of your house.

00:15:47.360 I don't have a problem with that.

00:15:48.820 I don't know about you.

00:15:49.660 Well, if they really want them, there's probably some, they'll probably customize their ads better.

00:15:53.480 Yeah, they can sell stuff to you.

00:15:55.000 Yeah, they can sell stuff to you.

00:15:56.220 So it's, it's, it's, it's worth it.

00:15:58.560 Anyway, somebody's identity is stolen every two seconds.

00:16:02.700 And there's no way you're going to be able to catch all of this stuff.

00:16:07.980 LifeLock.com is your best hope.

00:16:11.360 LifeLock.com watches the things like your social security number, not just your credit cards, but also your credit cards.

00:16:18.860 They watch absolutely everything that has your name on it.

00:16:22.600 And they can tell you if your social security number is being sold on the dark web, or somebody is trying to use your credit cards for some other reason.

00:16:32.680 It's really a tangled, tangled web, and you can't stand guard.

00:16:36.760 Listen to the news.

00:16:37.580 How do you not have this at this point?

00:16:39.060 I mean, it's, it's so important because every day there's a new crazy hack from not only a foreign government or just some criminal group.

00:16:46.760 They're coming after identities.

00:16:48.120 Did you see the, the actual ad?

00:16:51.120 Where is this story?

00:16:51.960 I have a story today where there was an actual ad for somebody saying, Hey, you know, we're a, we're a hacker group and we're looking for some people who are self starters.

00:17:03.280 I saw that too.

00:17:03.900 Dark overlord.

00:17:04.940 Here it is.

00:17:05.520 Listen to this dark overlord, cybercrime collective known for blackmailing big TV studios and insurance companies is hiring.

00:17:12.800 Specifically, it's hiring software designers and systems engineers with at least 10 years of experience, 10 years of experience of doing what, uh, to bring innovative approaches to operations and think outside the box.

00:17:29.980 This is a corporate job posting, um, that was found by the cyber threat intelligence company, digital shadows.

00:17:38.800 So dark overlord is looking to fill at least four vacant positions with a candidate that quote has a winning attitude.

00:17:49.660 These are people who are hackers.

00:17:51.900 They're, they're advertising.

00:17:54.140 Now, I don't know if they're providing any benefits, but I will tell you, this is how organized it's getting.

00:18:00.760 So you need life lock.

00:18:01.900 Use the promo code back right now.

00:18:04.100 Life lock.com promo code back 10 seconds.

00:18:08.460 Oh my God.

00:18:15.220 Look at this.

00:18:21.160 You know what the annual salary is?

00:18:24.360 I mean, I'm, I think I might've played $762,000 a year.

00:18:30.100 You have a 90 day probationary period.

00:18:32.840 Oh, good.

00:18:33.720 Um, with an expected increase to 1.068 million after two years.

00:18:42.720 Wow.

00:18:43.660 I guess though, you know, it's one of those things like if they'll pay you a lot to go work on an oil derrick in the middle of the sea.

00:18:49.060 But like a lot of people don't want to do that.

00:18:50.900 There's probably some systems engineers that don't want to cross the line into blatantly illegal activity.

00:18:56.080 So you kind of have to pay.

00:18:57.840 This is crazy.

00:19:00.020 They are, they posted four open roles on something called the kick-ass forum.

00:19:04.980 Huge fan.

00:19:05.620 That's my home.

00:19:05.900 It's a cyber crime job marketplace that charges a finder's fee and their tagline is life's too short not to be rich.

00:19:15.920 Which, that's a fair point.

00:19:18.500 I kind of agree.

00:19:20.880 Yeah, it's pretty, I mean, obviously they, what's their justification for being in existence?

00:19:25.780 Is this like a Silk Road thing that's going to get shut down at some point as soon as it becomes a news story?

00:19:30.660 Yeah, it's, it's, oh, oh, the kick-ass website?

00:19:33.280 Yeah.

00:19:33.540 I have no idea.

00:19:35.220 I don't, I mean, look at, I mean, Google search, see kick-ass forum, see if.

00:19:40.900 Yeah, sure.

00:19:41.200 Let me get on the, uh, government, uh, watch list, red flag list.

00:19:45.120 Was it a kick-ass forum?

00:19:46.420 A kick-ass forum.

00:19:48.340 Capital A.

00:19:49.940 It's capital K and capital A.

00:19:51.520 It seems like they might be moving it around, moving it around a little bit.

00:19:55.160 Um, because the, one of the first things is does someone have a new kick-ass link?

00:19:59.500 And they must be moving the site around.

00:20:01.440 Why?

00:20:01.920 Why do you say that?

00:20:02.800 Shockingly.

00:20:03.940 Um, all right.

00:20:05.380 Well, it does seem like it might be blatantly illegal and that a lot of places would want to shut it down.

00:20:09.780 Yeah, it might be on the dark web.

00:20:11.380 I don't, I can't, I don't, I feel like you click on the wrong thing here.

00:20:15.520 Hey, uh, hang on, the world's most expensive paging service.

00:20:19.180 Uh, Jason in the writer's room.

00:20:21.640 See if you can go on the onion, uh, uh, what is it?

00:20:26.500 The onion router and, uh, go into the, the dark web and see if you can find kick-ass forum and print some of the stuff off it.

00:20:33.940 Let's see why, what, what else they're advertising for.

00:20:36.680 Yeah, because I'm, I mean, everyone's looking for maybe a secondary, uh, job here and there.

00:20:41.040 Sure.

00:20:41.320 You know, maybe.

00:20:41.960 Sure, you work from home.

00:20:43.160 All you have to do is just blackmail people.

00:20:45.480 That's it.

00:20:46.420 It's a growing industry.

00:20:48.000 Yeah, yeah.

00:20:49.020 Uh, by the way, uh, speaking of, speaking of blackmailing people, if you would like to continue to live in California, uh, there's a, there's a new system of, uh, there's a new system of squeezing all of the blood out of you.

00:21:04.040 Have you heard Gavin Newsom, uh, his recommendation on taxing water, taxing drinking water?

00:21:14.400 He says there are too many people in California that just can't even drink the water.

00:21:19.280 It's, it's so bad in California.

00:21:22.120 Since when did California become India?

00:21:25.100 Yeah, I, I know there, it's a ridiculous thing because they're trying to say, I loved how they were like, look, there's been problems with drinking water in, uh, in California.

00:21:34.660 One of the places is the Mojave Desert.

00:21:37.100 Well, again, there's always been a problem with drinking water in the Mojave Desert.

00:21:43.500 It's like, that's kind of seem like death Valley.

00:21:45.620 There's no drinking, but they, they want to get more money and, and charge, uh, people because, you know, people in California do not pay enough taxes.

00:21:53.040 I think we can all agree on that.

00:21:54.220 Oh yeah.

00:21:54.640 Um, now the, the people, uh, who are posing this are saying, uh, you guys have a $15 billion surplus right now because of all the other taxes you're taxing people.

00:22:03.180 So if you have an issue, you could probably pull from that to, to pay for it, uh, which does seem relatively sane.

00:22:11.120 However, uh, why stop?

00:22:13.320 They get all these things through, you know, California, they just keep making this worse and worse for the people living there.

00:22:18.720 And that's why so many places are running.

00:22:20.860 Gavin said, Gavin Newsom said, we've met with residents who cannot even drink or bathe in the water in their homes.

00:22:28.580 Since when did the water in California get so bad that you couldn't bathe in your own home?

00:22:39.740 And is that a problem for all of California's or the problem really lies with, I don't know, the state.

00:22:47.760 Isn't that kind of one of your basic things that you should have gotten down?

00:22:51.420 I don't know, like a hundred years ago with the rest of the nation.

00:22:54.960 You're listening to Glenn Beck.

00:23:03.680 I've got to make a prediction on California when we come back to, by the way, I want to tell you here about, um, uh, relief factor.

00:23:10.180 Relief factor.

00:23:11.380 If you are in pain, this is the thing that I want you to try.

00:23:15.900 Now it is a hundred percent drug free.

00:23:18.380 It's created by doctors, but it has four key ingredients that help your body fight against inflammation.

00:23:25.760 Inflammation is the number one problem.

00:23:28.360 So if you can't sleep through the night because of pain, you have neck, shoulder, back, hip, knee pain, whatever your pain is.

00:23:35.280 What are the things that that pain is stopping you from doing?

00:23:39.400 Get your life back.

00:23:40.860 Try it.

00:23:41.860 Try it.

00:23:42.560 I did a year ago.

00:23:43.560 I still take it every single day.

00:23:45.740 70% of the people who try the three week quick start just to see if it works.

00:23:50.260 70% go on to order month after month after month.

00:23:53.980 Like I do it.

00:23:55.800 It's a way to get your life back.

00:23:57.380 Go to relieffactor.com.

00:23:58.880 That's relieffactor.com.

00:24:02.420 If you miss any part of the show, you can get the whole thing without commercials available on podcast every single day.

00:24:08.320 Go subscribe wherever free podcasts are sold.

00:24:13.560 Pat Gray joins us on the Glenn Beck program.

00:24:17.860 Pat, what is the, Stu and I can't come up with the right word.

00:24:22.360 When a state would take over something, it's not to nationalize something.

00:24:26.840 It's state eyes.

00:24:29.000 What?

00:24:30.040 It's called to statify.

00:24:31.880 Statify.

00:24:32.440 Okay.

00:24:32.660 Thank you very much.

00:24:33.780 You statify the issue.

00:24:35.400 I think they're going to statify power in California.

00:24:39.720 Have you heard the biggest provider of electricity and get, what is it?

00:24:45.540 Gas power and light in California is declared bankruptcy.

00:24:49.960 You watch PG and L.

00:24:51.560 Is it?

00:24:52.100 Yeah, I think it is.

00:24:53.240 Gas and electric.

00:24:53.940 Yeah.

00:24:54.160 And they're going to statify it.

00:24:56.180 Are they really?

00:24:56.880 No, that's my prediction.

00:24:58.180 That's your prediction.

00:24:58.640 They're going to statify it.

00:24:59.720 Okay.

00:25:00.340 I mean, is that not the perfect opportunity?

00:25:03.340 Yeah.

00:25:04.100 You might as well go for it while the Democrats are getting further and further to the left.

00:25:07.660 Right.

00:25:08.000 We have these candidates coming out.

00:25:09.960 Just taking it.

00:25:10.460 I mean, now, Casio Cortez is like the celebrity of all celebrities for some reason, which,

00:25:13.840 by the way, is the greatest thing that's ever happened to Republicans.

00:25:15.940 Hold on to this story.

00:25:16.840 I mean, they're like, oh, you're afraid of her.

00:25:19.140 Are we?

00:25:19.800 Yeah.

00:25:20.000 You know what?

00:25:20.440 If we're so afraid, you should totally put her on TV more.

00:25:23.440 Totally.

00:25:23.920 It's a great idea.

00:25:25.520 Let's change the Constitution so she can run for president.

00:25:29.660 I'm for that.

00:25:31.180 Just a special exception for her and just for her.

00:25:34.380 And then Tulsi Gabbard?

00:25:35.520 Like, I mean, is this this is really who the Democrats are putting out?

00:25:39.020 Well, she's you know, she's getting she's really getting some serious flack now because

00:25:44.960 she announced over the weekend that she's in for the for running for president.

00:25:49.600 And so they as you guys mentioned a few minutes ago, they checked into her past and her past

00:25:54.960 includes supporting and I'm not sure you guys said it was she was it was an anti-gay thing.

00:26:00.080 The only thing that I can find from her is kind of pro traditional marriage stuff.

00:26:05.860 OK, but you can't be pro traditional marriage.

00:26:08.580 But she was.

00:26:09.660 Yeah, she her dad was and she worked for she was working for the organization.

00:26:14.820 So she was and she said some things in support of her mom who was being attacked by a gay

00:26:20.640 activist.

00:26:21.340 Right.

00:26:21.460 So she sort of attacked people who were attacking her mom.

00:26:25.640 Is that outrageous?

00:26:27.220 How dare you?

00:26:29.140 Yeah, that's kind of horrific person.

00:26:31.680 Are you?

00:26:32.180 But she can't she cannot run if she is saying, hey, my parents have a different position than

00:26:38.360 me and they said they have a right to have a different position than than I do on on gay

00:26:43.700 marriage, etc.

00:26:44.620 You can't run.

00:26:45.680 When 70 percent of your job as a Democrat is to call Republicans homophobic or racist

00:26:50.660 or whatever for whatever comment, how can you do that when your mom and your dad unless

00:26:55.020 you're calling them?

00:26:55.660 Are you willing to call your mom and your dad homophobic?

00:26:57.560 Well, she can't.

00:26:58.680 Right.

00:26:58.980 I mean, she's not going to.

00:27:00.140 But she should like consistency would indicate that she should be able to call them homophobic.

00:27:05.800 Right.

00:27:06.500 Silly.

00:27:07.020 And I mean, tricks are for kids.

00:27:08.940 And I used to be homophobic, too, I guess, is what she could say.

00:27:12.260 And she could say it was because she's only 37 now, I think.

00:27:17.520 So she was 19 years old when this is going on.

00:27:20.300 Can we stop with all of it?

00:27:21.380 You know, what's so crazy is that we're talking about this.

00:27:24.240 And I don't know if you've seen in Chechnya.

00:27:26.380 There is a real issue with the the Russians in Chechnya rounding up and disappearing, torturing

00:27:36.660 and killing homosexuals and the LGBT organizations in Russia.

00:27:42.580 Yeah, but have they tweeted anything that's anti-gay?

00:27:43.960 Have they tweeted anything?

00:27:45.480 No.

00:27:45.500 Okay.

00:27:46.180 Well, so I mean, this is what we should be talking about here in the United States.

00:27:51.480 If you want to talk about gay issues, that's what we should be talking about.

00:27:55.500 Not about this stupid thing in Hawaii.

00:27:58.620 Islamic State throwing them off of the top of buildings.

00:28:01.380 No, but this one is brand new now.

00:28:03.480 I mean, that's been going on for a while.

00:28:05.100 Well, this charge now in Chechnya is new.

00:28:09.380 It's been going on for a while, but there's new evidence that has just come out.

00:28:13.400 That's stuff we never hear about either.

00:28:14.980 Never.

00:28:15.400 They don't seem to even care about any of that.

00:28:17.860 It's all it's always the focus is always on somebody's tweet.

00:28:21.780 Yeah, I know.

00:28:22.460 And there's real things happening right now.

00:28:24.660 It shows that they don't never actually cared about it.

00:28:26.780 Right.

00:28:27.040 I mean, this is they were all saying that, oh, it's a foundational part of my belief system

00:28:31.980 that gay marriage is wrong a few years ago.

00:28:35.100 And as soon as the polls cross the right way and now it's favored by the American people,

00:28:38.840 everyone who doesn't believe as they do is immoral and homophobic.

00:28:42.900 And it's like none of these positions are actually their positions.

00:28:46.040 They're just saying whatever benefits them at the moment.

00:28:48.100 So I listened to Andrew Heaton on Friday and his podcast with this guy, this author scientist that did a study on how we are not more polarized as a nation.

00:29:02.040 We think we are, but we're actually not more polarized.

00:29:05.840 He said, we're just better sorted.

00:29:09.500 And that's why you see the independence growing.

00:29:12.960 There are more independents than there are Democrats or Republicans.

00:29:15.800 So it's just that we're more sorted.

00:29:18.960 And most people are not all 100, but they're just not ideologues that are like, I believe in everything that that Democrat says.

00:29:29.060 I believe in everything that Republican says they're not like that.

00:29:32.820 And what happens is when we get to the election, we're forced into one of these two things.

00:29:40.100 You know, it's either A or B, A or B, choose or I blow your head off.

00:29:44.380 And so Americans have to go that way.

00:29:47.360 But what's happened is it started in Congress to where Congress became because of the districts, they became so radicalized.

00:29:58.860 And then the party said, you have to believe this or you're out.

00:30:03.720 And so it's really not changed.

00:30:06.160 What's changed is we're better sorted.

00:30:09.560 Now, the parties have ostracized everyone who disagrees with anything but the party line.

00:30:18.120 And so they've become extreme.

00:30:19.900 But the American people have not.

00:30:22.140 Well, that's not true of the of the 30 Democrats that are going to be running for president in 2020, because you can go all the way from socialism clear to communism.

00:30:32.940 The whole spectrum, the whole spectrum.

00:30:35.280 Wow.

00:30:35.540 Yeah, that's so that's wide open.

00:30:37.760 Yeah, that's what they got.

00:30:38.520 You know, that's one of the things that that's one of the things that we're trying to do at the blaze.

00:30:43.980 And one of the reasons why I was so disappointed that that Gavin McInnes, who, by the way, is going to be on one of my podcasts.

00:30:49.980 Oh, the man that you persecuted, hunted down and tried to kill.

00:30:56.620 Nothing to do with it.

00:31:00.140 Well, I did try to kill him, but I didn't have him fired.

00:31:02.820 Anyway, that's one of the things that I am so proud of with the blaze is you can go from somebody who is, you know, right on the edge of anarchy.

00:31:16.580 But still has conservative kind of principles like libertarianism, libertarian, you know, yeah, libertarian to the extreme, or you can go to the GOP guy that's like, no, I love Lindsey Graham.

00:31:32.180 You can go. And that is a spectrum. That is a spectrum.

00:31:36.140 And that is a spectrum that we have to keep together, because if we don't, then we're part of the extremist movement in the parties.

00:31:44.840 We have to be able to go, yeah, I disagree with that guy on this, but here are the big principles that we do agree on and we can come together on it.

00:31:52.280 Yeah, and I like hearing, you know, across that spectrum, because it's where you get challenged, right?

00:31:56.600 Like, I don't get challenged by watching CNN and watching some crazy leftist come up and say something that I, you know, I know is nowhere close to my value system.

00:32:04.240 But if I hear something from another conservative that has a different take on something, I find that to be much more interesting.

00:32:10.180 So proud of one of the researchers on the economy that is informing me now on some things.

00:32:18.100 And he wrote this morning and he said, hey, Glenn, you and I both believe depression is coming, not a recession, depression.

00:32:24.600 But here are the two best arguments against why this is not coming.

00:32:31.300 And, you know, we were we were exchanging emails this morning that how important it is that when you really, truly believe something that you find continually look not for the confirmation bias stuff,

00:32:44.840 but for the stuff that is constantly informing you on the other side going, well, wait a minute, not so fast.

00:32:50.980 I'd like to hear the two best reasons that it's not coming.

00:32:53.460 That might be a little comforting.

00:32:54.880 Well, when the lottery is number one, it wasn't.

00:32:57.320 I didn't buy into it.

00:32:59.300 Let me show you this.

00:33:01.560 May I show you this video?

00:33:03.260 And you have to do a Google search.

00:33:05.280 Just do a Google search for F-35 flat spin.

00:33:09.600 OK, this is something that it's on the aviationist, which is a, you know, obviously a, you know, a kind of a pilot and a plane freaks headquarters.

00:33:20.680 Watch.

00:33:21.260 This is the new F-35 that everybody says, oh, this is a waste of money.

00:33:25.420 I just want you to watch this.

00:33:28.480 It's going to go into a flat spin.

00:33:30.460 You know what a flat spin is?

00:33:31.740 I think so.

00:33:32.220 OK, so when a plane just kind of stops and then is is staying vertical or no, staying horizontal, but then just kind of spinning down towards the ground.

00:33:42.840 OK, watch.

00:33:44.560 Watch what happens as they're like, whoa, it's a flat spin.

00:33:48.120 Watch this.

00:33:51.220 OK, now it's going almost straight up.

00:33:56.260 OK, it's going to make a loop.

00:33:57.740 And then it's going to go into a flat spin, but then it's going to do something amazing.

00:34:04.200 OK, loop.

00:34:05.800 Is the pilot going to be conscious while he's doing this?

00:34:07.920 Yeah.

00:34:08.500 That's amazing.

00:34:09.140 I know it's amazing.

00:34:09.800 Watch flat spin.

00:34:11.140 See, it's just going to watch it stopped.

00:34:15.480 It's just hovering and then it turns and goes another direction.

00:34:21.560 Wow.

00:34:22.080 Is that the most incredible thing you've ever seen?

00:34:24.120 Yeah, that's cool.

00:34:24.720 It's just it's like it's falling from the sky and then it just stops in midair like it's like it's on a string.

00:34:32.300 And then the nose of it just turns around is like, hey, what's behind me and takes off the other direction.

00:34:38.860 There's there's there's nothing less persuasive to me of these arguments of like we're wasting money on new military technology.

00:34:44.940 No, a lot of times libertarians will bring that up.

00:34:46.500 And look, they make points that we do waste money.

00:34:48.600 We absolutely do waste money.

00:34:50.120 However, there are certain things that I don't mind throwing money at and blowing.

00:34:55.120 And it's like trying to come up with a new mega super plane that's going to outdo every one of our foes is a good goal.

00:35:01.240 The thing that I have not seen anywhere that I would love to see and somebody in a movie is going to make this maybe the new Top Gun movie will do this.

00:35:10.740 But there is one, by the way, what that is real, by the way, there is a new Top Gun.

00:35:16.040 So the F-35, the most incredible thing I think of is it's invisible to the pilot.

00:35:23.440 Do you know this?

00:35:24.680 No.

00:35:25.600 So, you know how in Top Gun, they're always like, where is he?

00:35:29.340 Where is he?

00:35:30.080 And they're trying to turn around and look.

00:35:31.580 The shield that they put is virtual, and it allows their cameras all over the plane.

00:35:41.160 And so when you're flying it, you look down, you see through your legs, you see through the floor, you're seeing to the ground.

00:35:48.940 You look to the side.

00:35:50.220 There is no plane.

00:35:51.380 You don't see anything except the controls in front of you.

00:35:55.540 Wow.

00:35:55.760 So it's like you're just flying in Wonder Woman's plane.

00:36:00.440 There's nothing blocking your vision anywhere in the plane.

00:36:05.360 That's pretty cool.

00:36:06.120 Is that crazy?

00:36:07.700 That's pretty cool.

00:36:08.480 Can you imagine driving down the highway and be like, man, this is a bumpy road, and looking down towards your lap and being able to see what's underneath your car?

00:36:17.220 I'm not sure I want to.

00:36:19.060 No, I know.

00:36:19.980 I'm still dragging that raccoon.

00:36:21.560 Freak me out old enough.

00:36:27.020 All right.

00:36:27.680 Pat Gray from Pat Gray Unleashed.

00:36:28.940 Thanks, Pat.

00:36:30.440 All right.

00:36:32.260 Let me tell you about ZipRecruiter.

00:36:34.580 ZipRecruiter is the way to hire somebody fast.

00:36:38.320 Now, it's not the dark web.

00:36:40.000 As we told you a few minutes ago, they're actually on the dark web.

00:36:43.500 They're looking for $765,000.

00:36:46.980 You can get into blackmail and hack into people's businesses.

00:36:50.540 That's not something that ZipRecruiter is going to help you with.

00:36:53.920 But if you're looking for a job or you're looking to hire somebody, ZipRecruiter is the fastest way in the industry to get somebody within the hour that is qualified for your job.

00:37:07.320 I mean, can you think of that?

00:37:08.140 I mean, we've gone through this process so many times and it didn't improve until we got ZipRecruiter.

00:37:14.180 But that could be weeks long.

00:37:15.920 I mean, a disaster.

00:37:18.080 Yeah.

00:37:18.240 And to get something in an hour, at least you'll know what your floor is even.

00:37:22.300 Right.

00:37:22.400 You're like, okay, here's someone who would be great for the job.

00:37:24.440 Let's see if we could even do better.

00:37:25.440 Right.

00:37:25.800 And they're not even, it's not somebody who's like, well, yeah, there's somebody in Alaska.

00:37:30.180 I mean, unless your job is hiring from anywhere in the world, they will find somebody around you.

00:37:36.420 You can customize all that, right?

00:37:37.300 Yeah.

00:37:37.560 It's amazing.

00:38:16.380 On a personal note, I'd like to ask for your prayers for my family this week.

00:38:21.300 On Saturday, Friday, my youngest, Cheyenne, was not feeling well.

00:38:27.780 And Saturday, we took her into urgent care.

00:38:31.860 And then she was taken right away to Children's Hospital in Fort Worth.

00:38:35.440 And we thought for a while she was going to have to have surgery.

00:38:39.660 In fact, we thought that until about 11 o'clock on Saturday night.

00:38:43.860 We finally got out of there, I think, around 3 a.m.

00:38:50.140 But they found some things internally.

00:38:54.340 And I don't want to get into all the details.

00:38:56.140 But they said they've never seen it in a child before, which is weird.

00:39:01.060 So she's got to go through some more testing.

00:39:04.500 And we just like you to keep her in your prayers at the same time.

00:39:08.880 My oldest daughter is also in the hospital.

00:39:12.580 She'll be in the next 4 to 10 days undergoing testing for possibility of brain surgery.

00:39:23.120 She has seizures.

00:39:25.440 And they just keep getting worse.

00:39:27.540 And she just, you know, makes it impossible for her to work.

00:39:31.620 It makes it impossible for her to drive or have a life.

00:39:34.000 And she's just kind of at the end of her rope there on that kind of stuff.

00:39:38.800 And so she's having some testing done here in Dallas.

00:39:44.480 And we're actually praying that she can have brain surgery.

00:39:48.520 Not that she can't, but that she can.

00:39:52.620 So whatever the outcome is, pray that our family is able to deal with all of the outcomes.

00:40:01.920 So that makes my eagles lost into perspective a little bit.

00:40:06.460 I will tell you, my son and I were having an interesting, I don't know if you'd call it a conversation about his homework on Saturday.

00:40:17.300 And that's why I didn't go in with Cheyenne with urgent care.

00:40:20.720 And then when she was taken to the children's hospital, it was strange how fast that conversation of homework just ended.

00:40:28.300 And he was like, Dad, I got it.

00:40:30.360 I got it.

00:40:31.700 I mean, it puts things into perspective.

00:40:35.180 We waste so much time on nonsense.

00:40:36.800 We do.

00:40:37.180 Don't we?

00:40:37.540 We really do.

00:40:38.560 We really do.

00:40:40.040 But the good news is we're back with another two hours of nonsense in just a second.

00:40:46.400 Stand by.

00:40:48.040 I want to talk to you a little bit about Home Title Lock, our sponsor.

00:40:51.440 Home Title Lock is something that both Stu and I have.

00:40:54.760 And we all got it.

00:40:55.720 Pat has it, too.

00:40:56.540 We all got it separately because we all kind of talked to this sponsor.

00:41:01.080 We're like, holy cow.

00:41:02.740 And so each of us signed up for it and then told the other one, boy, have you seen this yet?

00:41:07.020 This is something that I can't believe nobody is watching.

00:41:09.660 The title of your home, especially if you have parents who paid off their home, there's a good chance somebody can go in and steal that.

00:41:16.520 It's really, really simple.

00:41:17.860 And only one company is watching those titles to make sure that you don't become a victim.

00:41:22.920 Yeah, Home Title Lock.

00:41:24.060 If you have equity, you're a big target.

00:41:26.020 If you're the ones doing it right and paying your house off, you're the target.

00:41:29.340 HomeTitleLock.com is the place to go.

00:41:31.080 They have a free title scan to see if anything's happened to you so far.

00:41:34.300 It is free, $100 value, free when you sign up at HomeTitleLock.com.

00:41:38.540 It's HomeTitleLock.com.

00:41:42.620 The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

00:41:46.140 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:41:47.940 There's an amazing story about a newly elected Democratic congresswoman.

00:41:54.120 Her name is Rashida Tlaib.

00:41:56.400 She has hosted an unabashed anti-Semitic terrorist supporter.

00:42:02.540 Is this a problem for the new Democratic Party?

00:42:06.020 Well, there's a new study out that shows who the new Democratic Party is.

00:42:12.040 Now, this is different than the Democratic voter.

00:42:14.740 Who is the new Democratic Party?

00:42:18.240 It's fascinating.

00:42:19.440 We get into it in one minute.

00:42:24.040 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

00:42:26.260 Only two minutes in this half hour where we stop down to tell you about a sponsor.

00:42:29.680 This is one of them.

00:42:30.620 Then we're right back into programming.

00:42:32.540 It's Blinds.com.

00:42:34.500 No, it's not.

00:42:35.140 It's not Blinds.com.

00:42:36.240 It is Liberty Safe.

00:42:39.400 Liberty Safe, always, always there to protect your valuables.

00:42:43.740 Your valuables, Liberty Safe, firearms, ammo, gold, jewelry, marriage license, you know,

00:42:50.380 the normal things.

00:42:51.620 And then you get into things like creepy, weird things that tell you a lot about the

00:42:56.100 individual who owns the safe, like purses.

00:42:58.820 You mean someone who recognizes where most of his salary goes and thinks those things

00:43:02.580 should be protected?

00:43:04.380 I mean, someone smart like that?

00:43:05.940 I mean, I'm just saying that if most of your salary, the most valuable thing you have,

00:43:10.600 Stu, in your collection is a purse.

00:43:12.520 No, it's not the most valuable thing I have.

00:43:13.960 It's the most valuable 12 things I have.

00:43:18.500 It's crazy.

00:43:19.980 It's just my life.

00:43:20.960 I'm just used to it.

00:43:21.780 Anyway, number one safe manufacturer in the nation.

00:43:25.460 And they have sold more than two million safes for a reason.

00:43:28.820 They're the best built in the industry, bar none.

00:43:31.500 So they offer exclusive features like military locking bars, which, Stu, you should have those

00:43:39.400 for extra added protection.

00:43:41.540 I like this idea.

00:43:42.360 You know, fire seals that are second to none, plus all of their full-size safes come with

00:43:47.900 a lifetime warranty.

00:43:49.760 So whatever you're protecting in your Liberty Safe, make sure it is in a Liberty Safe.

00:43:54.480 Liberty Safe, the best built safes on the planet, bar none.

00:43:58.140 Now you can get them interest-free with approved credit.

00:44:01.460 Check out their special deals at libertysafe.com.

00:44:04.420 That's libertysafe.com.

00:44:06.340 Okay, so one of the people that was at Congressman or Congressperson Rashida Tlaib's swearing-in ceremony

00:44:24.880 and a private dinner with the entire family was Abbas Hamida.

00:44:32.160 Abbas has said things like Hamas and Islamic Jihad in Gaza congratulate and celebrate the

00:44:40.360 heroic operations carried out by Hezbollah, a terrorist organization, by the way.

00:44:45.720 Jewish groups whining about removal of Hamas from the EU terrorist list suck it up.

00:44:52.700 Netanyahu is comparing Hamas, a Palestinian national liberation movement, to ISIS.

00:44:58.860 ISIS, hello, happy birthday to the most honorable Arab Muslim leader in our lifetime, Nasrallah.

00:45:07.520 So this guy is, you know, kind of out there on the edge and everybody's kicking up, you know, dust

00:45:15.540 about it.

00:45:16.060 But is this really any surprise coming from the new Democratic Party?

00:45:20.920 The Democratic Party is about as far left as you can possibly get and out of step.

00:45:27.740 And here's here's where and I really kind of want to focus on this for a while.

00:45:34.260 The the parties have just become organizations for people's pet projects.

00:45:44.180 So, in other words, you might you might disagree with abortion and you don't want to fund Planned

00:45:52.640 Parenthood.

00:45:53.480 Well, there's one organization that you can go to that's going to fight, they say, to stop it.

00:45:58.220 And that is the Republican Party.

00:46:00.700 If you are for abortion all the way up until birth or beyond, you can go to the Democratic Party.

00:46:07.200 But that doesn't mean we're in lockstep with everything else.

00:46:12.620 Those are the edges of the party.

00:46:14.840 But those are the only things the parties are talking about, because they're super serving

00:46:19.860 these hyperpolitical edges and they're the edges that the Democrats have gone to.

00:46:28.000 I think if the American Democrat, the voter in America, really would look at what their

00:46:35.840 party has welcomed in and become, they would realize they are way out of step with them

00:46:43.860 as voters.

00:46:44.980 Yeah.

00:46:45.120 I mean, we've been saying for years and years and years and years, and I know the audience

00:46:48.660 has felt this as well, the Democratic Party has become more and more extreme, more and more

00:46:53.200 liberal.

00:46:53.540 And all those times we've been saying that, we now know we were right, because there are

00:46:59.320 extensive studies on this now, and there's a new one out talking about the split between

00:47:05.200 liberals, moderates, and conservatives within the Democratic Party.

00:47:09.240 And a lot of times we say, like, remember back, you know, in the Clinton days and Bill Clinton

00:47:13.980 meaning, like, they were different.

00:47:17.040 Like, they would make these arguments about, I mean, the era of small government is over

00:47:20.940 was something that Bill Clinton said.

00:47:24.000 A Democratic president said the, big government, did I say small?

00:47:28.360 No, big government.

00:47:28.920 The era of big government is over.

00:47:31.860 So, looking back now to that era, back to 1994, you see the split between liberals, conservatives,

00:47:40.280 and moderates in the Democratic Party.

00:47:42.240 In 1994, it was 25% conservative.

00:47:45.780 Okay, 25% of the Democratic Party considered themselves conservative Democrats.

00:47:50.780 Okay?

00:47:51.280 48% considered themselves moderate Democrats.

00:47:54.660 And 25% considered themselves liberal Democrats.

00:47:58.540 Stop and think about that just for a second.

00:48:00.800 An equal percentage of Democrats considered themselves liberal as conservative.

00:48:07.340 Liberal back there, back then, was progressive.

00:48:10.000 Yeah.

00:48:10.840 So, you know, progressive is what they meant back then by saying liberal.

00:48:16.060 So, only 25% of the Democratic Party would have considered themselves a progressive.

00:48:21.320 Yeah, and you think about that.

00:48:22.120 That's the hardcore, right?

00:48:23.280 Those are the people who would say, yeah, you know what?

00:48:25.320 I'm all for government health care.

00:48:26.900 I'm all for, you know.

00:48:27.900 The Bernie Sanders of the world.

00:48:29.280 Yeah, exactly.

00:48:29.600 The Bernie Sanders group.

00:48:30.380 So, that was only 25% of the Democratic Party.

00:48:32.600 But there was 25% that considered themselves to be conservative, right?

00:48:37.020 So, that might be someone who is.

00:48:38.440 Joe Lieberman.

00:48:38.940 Yeah, Joe Lieberman, right?

00:48:40.240 Somebody who was a hawk on defense, was a hawk on kind of spending for the Democrats.

00:48:47.080 Sometimes they'd be pro-life, even though they agreed with big programs and stuff.

00:48:51.360 There was a group there at one point, and that was, you know, a quarter of the party.

00:48:56.200 So, those things have changed, okay?

00:48:59.220 How much?

00:48:59.780 So, conservatives, who were 25% of the Democratic Party, now are 12.

00:49:05.020 No way.

00:49:05.620 So, more, and that's even hard to believe, right?

00:49:07.720 I mean, if you look at the Democrats, too, about 12% approve of Trump, right?

00:49:12.840 Like, it's about that era or area.

00:49:14.620 So, there are some people who consider themselves Democrats, whether this is an old family sort of, like, brand that they had from back in the day, and they still consider themselves conservative Democrats.

00:49:24.660 Now, is this in the party?

00:49:25.580 Wait, wait, wait.

00:49:26.040 Is this in the party?

00:49:27.240 Yes, these are the party.

00:49:28.240 This is the party.

00:49:29.200 This is not the voter.

00:49:30.800 These are the people in Washington.

00:49:32.080 No, this is everyone who's in the party.

00:49:34.060 So, if you're a Democrat voter.

00:49:35.140 If you declare a Democrat, this is who you are.

00:49:37.540 Yes.

00:49:37.740 Okay.

00:49:38.040 So, you're not an independent, leans Democrat, but a Democrat.

00:49:40.780 A person who, and that's, you know, a good chunk of the country.

00:49:43.840 Okay.

00:49:44.100 So, from 25 to 12, that's something to not just brush over.

00:49:48.460 You've cut the people who consider themselves conservative in the party more than in half.

00:49:52.800 Second is moderate.

00:49:55.080 Now, moderate was 48% of the party.

00:49:57.820 A full half of the party consider themselves to be moderate Democrats.

00:50:01.640 Today, it's only a third, from 48 to 33%.

00:50:05.600 Wow.

00:50:06.260 A significant drop.

00:50:07.940 Yeah.

00:50:08.580 Now, those two things would indicate to you that perhaps liberals have gone up, and you're going to be surprised to hear that that's true.

00:50:15.720 Liberals, which were 25% of the party back in the mid-90s, are now 51% of the party.

00:50:23.060 Wow.

00:50:23.300 More than half of the party now considers themselves to be liberal.

00:50:27.580 And now, obviously, to conservatives, probably every Democrat seems liberal to you.

00:50:31.600 But there's a different choice of saying about yourself, right?

00:50:36.000 Like, you're identifying, yeah, I'm out there, right?

00:50:38.680 I'm as far left as you can get.

00:50:40.960 You're saying, I am going for the universal health care.

00:50:44.360 I am going for all of these giant programs and all the tax increases.

00:50:47.620 And this is Ocasio-Cortez.

00:50:49.140 Half the party is now identifying themselves.

00:50:51.380 And it's interesting to see how that happens, because it's going to happen two different ways.

00:50:55.420 One way is the liberal point is winning out among the Democratic people.

00:51:00.300 They're sitting there, and they're looking, well, you know what?

00:51:01.640 We used to be, yeah, sure, we used to be, we used to triangulate, and we used to try to move to the middle and win voters.

00:51:06.640 But I don't like that.

00:51:07.300 That didn't work.

00:51:08.040 We got to go more liberal.

00:51:09.040 That could be part of it, right?

00:51:10.100 The other part of it is, though, the voters who were conservative and who were moderate are leaving and are becoming independent.

00:51:18.580 Your 45% is not on the Ocasio-Cortez.

00:51:23.320 45% of that party are not on that train.

00:51:27.020 They may be here and there on certain programs, et cetera, et cetera, but they don't consider themselves.

00:51:32.520 That's a huge number inside of the party.

00:51:36.560 And, again, I think this goes to sorting, Stu.

00:51:39.600 This is why the parties have become more extreme, but the American people haven't necessarily.

00:51:47.760 Well, no, I mean, this is the American people.

00:51:50.000 It is.

00:51:50.740 However, 45% are leaving the Democratic Party or would like another choice because they're not Ocasio-Cortez.

00:51:59.480 Right.

00:51:59.780 I think the interesting thing to look at here, and we'll know this more as time goes on, are these people who – I think it's both.

00:52:07.820 I think people who were moderate Democrats before and were in the Democratic Party and been there for a long time have decided we want essentially Bernie Sanders, but probably in a younger, more attractive package, right?

00:52:19.440 Like they're saying, you know what?

00:52:20.360 I just don't want to deal with – I don't believe this moderate thing works anymore.

00:52:24.980 And they become liberal.

00:52:25.820 And conservatives maybe have become moderate or liberal in that party.

00:52:28.820 The other thing, though, is people who were conservatives, it's no longer a place to stand.

00:52:34.080 If you are a conservative Democrat, how can you possibly belong to that organization anymore?

00:52:39.000 How can you possibly be surrounded by people like Ocasio-Cortez, people like Tom Perez who are saying, hey, Ocasio-Cortez is the future of our party, and if you are pro-life, we want you out.

00:52:49.980 Right?

00:52:50.100 So people are leaving, and they're becoming moderates, and they may still vote for Democrats, but they're becoming less and less attached to Democrats because what they see there is a growing group of the furthest left voters and people in control getting the absolute grasp on the party.

00:53:13.480 And when it's 51% that are liberal, that's why you're seeing these candidates like Tulsi Gabbard think that they can come out and be competitive.

00:53:23.520 So I want you to look at something for me.

00:53:26.580 I want to show you some numbers here and show the breakdown of Trump and the loss of Hillary and see if you can actually make the case with numbers.

00:53:37.040 You're a numbers guy, but see how you can make this case.

00:53:40.420 This, I think, clarifies a lot of the last election.

00:53:46.240 Just that poll, if you look at it and you make some suppositions on what happened to the Democratic voter, if that's who they are, it explains the last election without even going in to the Republican Party.

00:54:04.140 Do that in one minute.

00:54:05.300 First, let me tell you about X-Chair.

00:54:09.600 Stu and I are sitting on X-Chairs right now.

00:54:11.560 We love them.

00:54:12.640 X-Chairs, they will support your back the way your back needs to be supported.

00:54:18.440 Your butt feels kind of good, although I don't really have a lot of pain.

00:54:21.740 I don't know why I have a lot of pains in my butt other than Stu, but it's just a really comfortable chair.

00:54:29.040 Now, they have a new model out for a limited time available only to this audience.

00:54:33.960 I want you to try it out.

00:54:34.880 Let us know what you think.

00:54:36.220 It's X-ChairBeck.com.

00:54:38.420 Now, there's the Super X-Chairs that I think Professor X had a lot to do with because they do everything but read minds.

00:54:46.700 However, X-Basic gives you all of the critical stuff that you need, except it doesn't read minds through your butt, I think.

00:54:54.420 I'm not sure all of the things that the Super X-Chairs do, but they're really, really great.

00:54:59.160 But this X-Basic gives you everything I love about this chair at a really great price.

00:55:07.480 I want you to try it.

00:55:08.400 When I say try it, you can send it back 30 days.

00:55:10.960 No questions asked.

00:55:11.960 If you don't love the chair, try it.

00:55:14.540 It is really good.

00:55:34.340 That's X-ChairBeck.com.

00:55:36.840 Break for 10 seconds.

00:55:37.760 Normally, this would be the time that I would say, Stu, while we're in a commercial break, let me run this theory by you so I don't come back and look like an income poop.

00:55:56.620 But we don't have a commercial break here anymore.

00:55:58.500 So let me just run this by you.

00:56:00.920 And please, those in the audience who go, no, duh, just give me a break here for a second.

00:56:07.760 If you have 51% that are on the Ocasio-Cortez train, okay, the Bernie Sanders, I'm pretty much a socialist kind of person.

00:56:18.460 Yeah.

00:56:19.720 Unabashed.

00:56:21.040 33% that say they're moderate.

00:56:23.380 They're leaning one way or another.

00:56:25.900 But, you know, they might be more socialist.

00:56:28.880 They might be more conservative.

00:56:30.780 Okay.

00:56:31.480 And then 12% conservative.

00:56:34.440 Correct.

00:56:34.960 That gives you 45% that's in the middle to the right.

00:56:39.460 Yes.

00:56:40.120 Got it.

00:56:40.540 And 51% who's on the definite diehard left.

00:56:44.920 Okay.

00:56:46.920 20% of Democrats voted for Donald Trump.

00:56:51.420 20% of those who say, I am a Democrat, that's who voted for Trump.

00:56:58.380 Correct?

00:56:59.580 That number is about 20% Democrat.

00:57:01.900 I'd have to check the exact stat on that.

00:57:03.840 And I know there was a large percentage, though, of Democrats that changed up.

00:57:07.460 I could be wrong on that.

00:57:08.420 I've heard it was about 20%.

00:57:09.560 And you've heard this before.

00:57:10.360 It's the Obama-Trump voter.

00:57:12.700 Yes.

00:57:13.220 They voted for Obama.

00:57:14.800 They came over and voted for Trump.

00:57:16.180 Correct.

00:57:17.300 There's a large group of those.

00:57:19.160 Yeah.

00:57:19.720 I shouldn't say the Democrats.

00:57:21.120 I should say 20% of those people who voted for Obama.

00:57:25.300 Voted for Trump.

00:57:26.240 I think that's right.

00:57:27.920 I don't know the exact breakdown, but it's something like that.

00:57:29.020 All right.

00:57:29.200 We don't need to get into the specifics.

00:57:30.540 We know there's a large group there, though.

00:57:32.200 So, if you voted for Obama, I would say that you're probably in the moderate to liberal group.

00:57:43.560 You'd think so, yeah.

00:57:44.400 You'd think so.

00:57:44.980 Right.

00:57:45.100 I mean, the first one was a strange election because it was historic and everything else.

00:57:50.200 Yeah.

00:57:50.360 The second one was Romney.

00:57:52.060 It was, yeah.

00:57:52.580 And I think it was 20% that voted for both or 15% that voted for Obama both times that voted for Trump.

00:58:01.540 So, if that's true, let's just say it's out of that 45 that voted, you know, that says,

00:58:09.740 I'm a moderate to conservative, that 45%.

00:58:12.400 Let's say you just take 25% of that, of 45, or take 20% of it.

00:58:21.060 That leaves you, again, if you take 20%, that leaves you with 25% that says, no, I'm more of a conservative, so I want Hillary.

00:58:31.100 I want the old school Bill Clinton kind of Democrat.

00:58:36.420 Right, thinking from a Democratic perspective here, not what we would consider conservatism, but what they would think is a conservative Democrat.

00:58:42.860 Right, okay.

00:58:43.480 I just want the tried and true Democratic Party that I grew up with, that I understand.

00:58:47.780 I want the Bill Clinton stuff.

00:58:49.620 You know, I'm not thrilled with Hillary Clinton, but I certainly don't like Bernie Sanders.

00:58:54.580 I'm not part of that, okay?

00:58:56.240 So, 25% of that middle 45 goes off and they vote for Hillary.

00:59:06.420 Then you're left with, and 20% go and vote for Trump.

00:59:10.060 Then you're left with the 51% liberal.

00:59:13.800 Well, the liberals, what?

00:59:16.960 20% of those could not stomach Hillary Clinton?

00:59:20.680 Yeah, a lot of them didn't show up.

00:59:23.180 Some of them went to Jill Stein.

00:59:25.300 Right.

00:59:26.420 I mean, so at least 20% of them said they couldn't stomach.

00:59:30.400 How many actually did, but it was enough for her to lose.

00:59:33.480 That's why.

00:59:35.260 Because the Democratic Party is polarized itself.

00:59:40.800 Mm-hmm.

00:59:41.400 And you're going to see these 30 candidates come out running against each other, tripping over each other to get further left to please these activists.

00:59:48.900 But that will only go to aid Donald Trump.

00:59:54.600 Yes.

00:59:54.700 Because if you voted as a Democrat for Donald Trump, you weren't being listened to anyone.

01:00:00.180 Anyway, who's surveying those people?

01:00:03.100 Who's talking to those people?

01:00:04.440 Who's talking about those people in the press?

01:00:07.640 The Democrats in the press don't even want to bring up that 15 to 20, 25% of the Democratic people who voted for Barack Obama voted for Donald Trump.

01:00:18.440 They don't want anything to do with it.

01:00:19.620 That's just, that's crazy, far right wing stuff.

01:00:23.660 Yeah, it's hard to win them back when you're calling them homophobic, homophobic and racist and anti-Semitic and everything else.

01:00:30.340 Correct.

01:00:30.520 So they have to just basically ignore them.

01:00:32.700 Those that this, this, that 45% is at some degree or some level attracted to the guy at the end of the bar stool that says, you know, can we just stop all this racist stuff?

01:00:50.840 Can we just stop all of this socialist Marxist bullcrap?

01:00:56.180 And that's who Donald Trump is.

01:00:58.680 And Donald Trump was able to pull people from the Democratic Party because of his history.

01:01:04.960 He had enough in his history to make those voters in the Democratic Party go, you know, and I don't think he really kind of believes all that stuff.

01:01:13.700 I mean, he's for, he's for trade wars, you know, and that traditionally, that's what I remember growing up here in and that union position for the union thing last century.

01:01:24.220 Right.

01:01:25.040 So, yeah, no, I think that's actually an interesting thing because, and it's, it's interesting how you keep this coalition together for 2020 if you're a Democrat.

01:01:33.800 Right.

01:01:34.340 Because to win this primary, you're going to have to be essentially Ocasio-Cortez, right?

01:01:39.740 At least to be competitive.

01:01:41.060 You can't, you can't dismiss Medicare for all, for example, to win that primary.

01:01:46.820 You might say, look, I think there's this little modification on it here and there, but they're all going to be going and saying more and more and more and more and more.

01:01:55.100 When someone comes out for Medicare for all, someone's going to come out for something even further than that.

01:01:59.660 We need to get people off of these private insurance programs.

01:02:02.340 We need single payer for the entire country.

01:02:04.640 No more employee, employer sponsored coverage.

01:02:09.100 They're going to keep going further and further and further.

01:02:11.560 And then it's going to be someone who's going to have to bring it back to a place where they can capture those conservative and moderate Democratic voters.

01:02:19.580 They're playing to the hardcore left throughout the primary, and then they have to figure out a way to bring it back.

01:02:25.360 Trump was able to do that, I think, because, because of what you're talking about.

01:02:28.500 That sort of plain spoken, like, look, you know, this is just obviously nonsense.

01:02:32.800 And it wasn't specific on policy.

01:02:35.200 Everybody so far in this Democratic primary and everyone we expect to get in are all politicians that all talk policy.

01:02:44.460 Like they to do that, you need to be a dynamic personality.

01:02:47.800 You think Tulsi Gabbard is going to be able to pull that off?

01:02:50.120 No, no, I can't think of anybody that can pull that off.

01:02:53.740 The only one that could pull off bringing it back to the center is Joe Biden.

01:02:58.980 But he may not be far enough left to win.

01:03:02.480 Yeah. And this is what. Yeah, right.

01:03:03.800 I mean, he may be one of them.

01:03:05.560 You know, this is why they keep flirting with the Oprah's of the world, though.

01:03:08.480 They think somebody like that would be able to do it.

01:03:11.260 And I don't think it's really realistic.

01:03:13.660 Wow. More in a second.

01:03:14.380 You're listening to Glenn Beck.

01:03:19.660 So do you want to sell your home?

01:03:22.380 Let me tell you a good reasons why some good reasons why you should go to realestateagentsitrust.com.

01:03:27.820 I get letters in all the time from people.

01:03:30.980 Stephanie from Florida.

01:03:32.580 She wrote in and she said, last year, we decided to take my transfer.

01:03:36.640 My husband's company had offered.

01:03:38.380 We left to listen to this letter.

01:03:39.940 We left our home for over 24 years, leaving our children and our grandchildren, knowing already that it was going to be an emotional move.

01:03:48.460 I listen to Glenn Beck almost every day.

01:03:50.460 I heard his advertisement for real estate agents, the itrust.com.

01:03:54.800 He said that they had the same kind of integrity that I would have.

01:03:58.220 So I thought, I trust Glenn.

01:03:59.640 Why not?

01:04:00.700 I am so glad that I did.

01:04:02.920 Ashley was a godsend.

01:04:04.500 She returned my call within an hour.

01:04:05.900 Not only did she hold the values we expected, but she ended up being such an encouragement to us.

01:04:11.300 We laughed together.

01:04:12.120 We even prayed together.

01:04:13.280 And the sale got squirrely, but she got it done.

01:05:30.520 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:05:35.700 Talking about the left and the right and how they've changed so much.

01:05:39.300 And part of this is, too, going into some of these kind of crazy policies that they do.

01:05:44.020 For example, California now wants to tax water.

01:05:48.700 They want to actually tax your drinking water.

01:05:52.060 And this is sort of going on the same thing that we've seen this movement over the past few years about taxing soda.

01:05:57.920 It's a sin tax, right?

01:05:59.000 Soda's bad for you.

01:06:00.000 You shouldn't drink it, in theory.

01:06:02.040 Of course, I totally disagree with that analysis.

01:06:03.640 But it's very bad for you.

01:06:05.820 And you shouldn't drink it.

01:06:06.680 So, therefore, we're going to tax it.

01:06:08.060 Philadelphia did this.

01:06:08.860 The first academic study about this is out now.

01:06:12.400 And the results are pretty amazing.

01:06:14.000 First of all, in Philadelphia, people did not cut calories as a result of the tax on sweetened drinks.

01:06:21.180 They didn't shift their drinking to anything more healthy.

01:06:24.160 Instead, what they did is they got in their cars and they drove across the city line and they bought all their soda there.

01:06:32.840 And, of course, when you're buying all your soda there, you're also buying your groceries there.

01:06:36.320 So, this is a boon to the economies outside of the border.

01:06:41.920 We dealt with this when we were in Philadelphia.

01:06:43.720 There's a wage tax in Philadelphia, but not in the surrounding communities.

01:06:48.660 So, everyone, there's this one road called City Line Avenue.

01:06:50.960 And everyone builds their businesses on the other side of City Line Avenue to avoid Philadelphia's stupid wage tax.

01:06:56.500 And the reason why it's called City Line, it's where the line of the city is.

01:07:00.160 I mean, the city officially ends in the center of that street.

01:07:03.160 And it is the most incredible thing.

01:07:05.440 It will show you the difference between free markets and state-run, heavy-run, heavy tax.

01:07:13.520 Because you go down that street and you're driving around and you're looking to your right, which is, surprisingly, free market.

01:07:23.020 You're driving around the circle to your right and you're looking and you're seeing prosperity.

01:07:28.700 You look the other way into the city on your left and it is just blight.

01:07:35.620 It's crazy.

01:07:36.980 It is crazy.

01:07:37.660 It's crazy.

01:07:38.440 It is the best example of what a big, progressive, high-tax city does to a community because it is literally in the center of the road.

01:07:53.940 It's blight and poverty and Saks Fifth Avenue on the other side.

01:07:59.640 We're going to get back into this Democratic-Republican thing here in a second.

01:08:02.260 But just to give you the final take on this study.

01:08:04.520 A, we find no significant reduction in calorie and sugar intake.

01:08:09.280 This is what it's been sold on, right?

01:08:10.980 Like that's going to help people not be as fat and not be as unhealthy.

01:08:14.200 The tax does not lead to a shift towards healthier products.

01:08:18.280 And most importantly, again, like the Democrats are the working man's people, right?

01:08:22.120 It affects low-income households more severely because they are – and it is also limited in its ability to raise revenue.

01:08:29.140 So obviously, people are avoiding the tax, so it's not raising revenue.

01:08:32.280 And the people hit hardest by it are the people who don't have the cars, who don't have the ability to go out of town to buy all their stuff.

01:08:38.240 So they get hit with a tax over and over and over and over again.

01:08:40.660 The poor people who can't leave.

01:08:42.060 If you're going to work on a bus –

01:08:42.960 And it's amazing.

01:08:43.740 If you're going to work on a bus, you're paying for the tax.

01:08:46.140 And unfortunately, you don't have the money to pay for the tax.

01:08:49.360 And so you just stop drinking soda, maybe.

01:08:53.180 Or you just shift your funds someplace else and you have less money.

01:08:58.180 In fact, they actually showed that people did not switch.

01:09:01.740 They just wound up having to pay for it and had less money for other things.

01:09:04.780 In fact, what they showed is there was a decrease in soda sales inside of Philadelphia.

01:09:09.980 However, the increase in soda sales in the surrounding communities actually made all of it back and more.

01:09:16.640 So overall, there was an increase in soda because people –

01:09:20.020 And this is the thing.

01:09:20.700 I want to avoid the soda tax.

01:09:21.760 I'm going to go load up while I'm out there.

01:09:23.600 So they bought more soda and they brought it back and drank more soda.

01:09:26.700 So if you really believe soda is so evil, you actually had people consuming more of it in your city.

01:09:33.140 I mean, it doesn't work on any level.

01:09:35.960 And yet they're still trying to pop this up all over the country.

01:09:39.600 I'm telling you, this is what – we're going to have the problem with basic minimum income.

01:09:45.940 Mincome.

01:09:46.620 Mincome.

01:09:47.260 It fails every single time it's tried.

01:09:51.380 And they keep trying it.

01:09:53.000 One of the first experiments was Richard Nixon actually here.

01:09:55.300 He tried it in the United States and it failed and they banned it.

01:09:58.380 They just did it in Finland.

01:09:59.820 They had this grand experiment touted by liberals and progressives all over the world.

01:10:05.040 I think they did it with Berkeley, too.

01:10:06.440 They did it in – didn't they do it in Oakland?

01:10:07.440 They started doing it in Berkeley.

01:10:08.160 Yeah, they started – I don't know.

01:10:09.040 I haven't seen the outcome on that one yet.

01:10:10.860 But Finland, I know, failed.

01:10:12.380 They canceled the program.

01:10:13.420 I think it failed in California as well.

01:10:17.100 And they've just revamped it.

01:10:18.440 Oh, no, it's going to work.

01:10:19.560 It doesn't work.

01:10:20.760 It doesn't work.

01:10:22.040 And that – I think that is the next stage is basic minimum income.

01:10:29.080 It's socialism.

01:10:30.160 And what it does is it just kills the spirit.

01:10:32.800 You can't – you can't change basic human nature.

01:10:40.100 And that's the difference between the free market and progressive values.

01:10:45.400 The free market says your people are people.

01:10:49.240 They're just – they're going to do what people do.

01:10:51.560 So let's help them do what they want to do.

01:10:55.620 Where progressives say, well, we can change basic human drives.

01:11:02.500 Because we know better what people should be doing.

01:11:04.240 Right.

01:11:05.160 You know, so, you know, if we just give them a basic minimum income, no, what will that do?

01:11:11.540 Everybody is pretty much the same.

01:11:13.760 I mean, there are those who are – who are we talking to?

01:11:17.600 Bowie said about a guest that she wanted to bring in.

01:11:20.940 And she said there's this guy who was, what, 300 pounds and, you know, just knew he was going to die, so wanted to lose weight.

01:11:30.440 So he joins the Marine Corps.

01:11:33.000 And he completely goes, like, balls to the wall.

01:11:38.320 I'm going to live every second of my life.

01:11:41.400 Yeah.

01:11:41.500 There are those people.

01:11:43.760 But that's not who most people are.

01:11:46.320 No.

01:11:46.700 You give them the opportunity to slide.

01:11:49.320 They slide.

01:11:50.080 We found out last week even AI does this.

01:11:53.440 You give it a task.

01:11:55.500 And even AI says, well, I could take some shortcuts.

01:12:00.680 No, I mean, if Mincome can provide – and Mincome is basically you get money for nothing.

01:12:06.520 You don't have to go to work if you don't know this concept.

01:12:08.520 And it's a real thing they're throwing around for multiple reasons, technology being one of them, socialism being another.

01:12:13.000 But the idea that you can basically get money every day, every week, and you don't have to go to work at all.

01:12:19.520 We implement that thing here.

01:12:21.180 We are Wally in a second.

01:12:23.120 Like, I am – if I can get a decent standard of living by not doing anything, I am just going to be a – I mean, I'm already fat – a Pat Slovenly guy.

01:12:33.660 I'm going to be in a chair so I don't have to walk.

01:12:35.740 And I will just be slobbering over whatever food I'm shoveling into my mouth within six weeks.

01:12:41.960 That's my – I'm advocating for that as a policy of my own.

01:12:45.280 Seriously.

01:12:46.280 Seriously.

01:12:47.200 How many people that win – you probably would know this number and know how to find it.

01:12:51.800 How many people who win the lottery actually go into work the next day or the next month?

01:12:59.200 That's interesting.

01:13:00.040 I don't know the number there.

01:13:01.300 Because if you win the lottery, you have no real reason to work.

01:13:04.900 So you might go do something that you want to do, you know, but as you see, most lottery winners lose all the money.

01:13:14.620 An incredible amount of them.

01:13:16.160 It's very high.

01:13:17.360 Higher than you'd ever believe.

01:13:18.560 Right.

01:13:18.980 They lose the money.

01:13:20.160 Why?

01:13:20.980 Because they got it for free.

01:13:22.960 They don't know what to do.

01:13:24.520 They don't know how to, you know, affect their lifestyle that way.

01:13:28.780 And then if they're working, they're probably working not at a job they don't want to have.

01:13:34.600 They're probably like, you know what I've always wanted to be?

01:13:37.080 I've always wanted to be a race car driver.

01:13:40.560 Well, there are no money in race car driving for you.

01:13:43.680 You know what I mean?

01:13:44.840 Right.

01:13:45.100 And I think that's what men come will do to people.

01:13:47.540 It if you if you want to work, you will do something that you've always wanted to do, which is great in theory.

01:13:57.720 But most people, you know, follow your heart is not always the best advice.

01:14:02.960 Your heart is dumb.

01:14:03.960 Yeah.

01:14:04.660 I mean, Jeffy's heart was attacking him.

01:14:06.700 You know, you know what a better advice?

01:14:09.180 Follow other people's heart.

01:14:11.360 And I don't mean like, oh, what do they have their heart set on?

01:14:14.440 I should do that.

01:14:16.160 I mean, what do other people's heart tell them they need to tell them they want to do?

01:14:22.960 Follow their heart.

01:14:24.500 Make them happy.

01:14:26.220 Serve them.

01:14:27.280 Make their life easier.

01:14:29.120 That's capitalism.

01:14:30.280 Yeah, it's at least how you're going to be monetarily successful.

01:14:33.260 It's not exactly everybody's goal.

01:14:35.480 Right.

01:14:35.700 And if that's not your goal, you know, when Nancy Pelosi was talking about some of these topics, she said, well, we need to let musicians and artists perform their art instead of having to go to work all the time.

01:14:47.760 That's ridiculous.

01:14:48.460 They should be able to perform their art.

01:14:50.140 And it's like, well, if their art is marketable, sure.

01:14:52.460 If it's not, then no, they can do that on their free time.

01:14:55.080 They can go to a job.

01:14:56.200 Maybe they don't like because you know what?

01:14:57.340 Most people don't like their jobs.

01:14:58.400 But if they if their passion actually is to be a musician and they can't make money doing it, they're going to have to supplement their life by going to an actual job.

01:15:06.420 And then at the end, they can play their guitar.

01:15:08.440 That's like that shouldn't be a crazy concept in the United States.

01:15:11.740 And we shouldn't be subsidizing the fact that somebody who can't really play guitar wants to play guitar.

01:15:16.800 And especially since so much of that comes through experience and pain.

01:15:21.520 So much art comedy.

01:15:23.100 It's like, you know what?

01:15:23.840 We're going to make sure every comedian is always happy.

01:15:26.160 Yeah.

01:15:26.300 Well, then you're not going to be funny.

01:15:28.260 No, funny.

01:15:30.460 I mean, your experience of life.

01:15:33.620 That's the problem with basic minimum income in a nutshell is it doesn't give you your life any meaning.

01:15:41.100 And that's, I think, a sad thing to say, because then we're tying what we do as a job as our meaning in life.

01:15:48.240 And it shouldn't be that.

01:15:49.100 Well, no, because most of us tie not not to our job, but to our stuff.

01:15:54.740 We tie meaning to our stuff, to our title, to our success.

01:15:59.220 That, I think, is the difference between my generation and the millennial generation.

01:16:03.460 They don't want to tie their meaning in life and be my age and go, there's really no meaning to all this stuff.

01:16:12.360 They want they want to do something that makes a difference.

01:16:16.440 That's why I really think it is follow someone else's heart.

01:16:20.660 Make a difference in other people's lives and you'll find meaning in there.

01:16:26.880 And that's what good capitalism should be.

01:16:30.840 We don't get up every day and say, you know what I want to talk about?

01:16:35.420 I want to talk because I would not be talking about 90 percent of the stuff that I talk about on this show if it were up to me.

01:16:43.500 Today, I'd be talking about art.

01:16:45.700 Tomorrow, I'd be talking about, you know, of, you know, A.I.

01:16:52.240 I don't I do talk about both of those things, but I'm trying to serve you.

01:16:59.420 I'm trying to figure out I spend most of my time trying to figure out what's happening in their life.

01:17:03.940 What's happening in the person who listens to this show?

01:17:06.440 What's happening in their life?

01:17:07.860 What are they struggling with?

01:17:09.260 What are they going to be struggling with?

01:17:12.120 You know, somebody said to me, wow, you've really found like this new this new pace, this new thing that you're warning people about.

01:17:21.020 That's that's coming, kind of like I warned about the caliphate and the coming collapse back in 2006 and seven before it collapsed.

01:17:28.240 And I said, yeah, I really have.

01:17:30.400 They said, that must be really satisfying.

01:17:31.860 And I said, no, it's not.

01:17:33.980 No, it's not because I know it.

01:17:36.120 I got it.

01:17:36.720 I understand.

01:17:37.440 I'd much rather be off preparing and doing something else and doing the things that I like than sitting here trying to explain it to people who really, in many cases, for a very at the very beginning, each time do not want to hear it.

01:17:53.060 I don't want to do that.

01:17:56.060 But because I also want to be successful, I have to find a way to do that to where the audience will consume it.

01:18:03.900 So I have to figure out what are you worried about?

01:18:05.960 What do you what do you want in life?

01:18:08.700 How do I serve you?

01:18:09.680 It's I'm telling you, it's it's making friends and influencing people.

01:18:14.840 Yeah, it's the book that came out in the 30s that if we just start thinking not about ourselves, but about others, we'll be successful and we'll be fulfilled.

01:18:27.360 Right, because no one's going to stop you if you are not commercially successful in radio.

01:18:31.720 No one's going to stop you from posting on Twitter, all your viewpoints.

01:18:35.840 It's just no one's going to, you know, that's just that's the thing, right?

01:18:38.540 Like it's you're you're you can still express yourself just like you could still play guitar.

01:18:42.280 Right.

01:18:42.660 However, subsidizing the idea that people who can't play guitar should be able to play guitar and still earn money for not being able to play guitar is a terrible idea.

01:18:51.280 And I don't make the case that when people didn't want to hear my point of view on the collapse in 2006 and 7.

01:18:58.900 Remember how much heat we got?

01:19:00.000 Yeah, we're getting subsidized or in the caliphate.

01:19:01.960 I'm not saying somebody should pay for me and force people to listen.

01:19:05.000 No, I'm not saying that if my view is out of step, it's my job to figure out how to make that something that people want or need.

01:19:15.700 And if I can't, I lose and I'm out.

01:19:17.740 But you know what?

01:19:18.760 Then I'm probably wrong, you know, because I can't make my case to people.

01:19:27.120 All right.

01:19:27.980 What happened to Bitcoin this weekend?

01:19:29.700 Do you have any idea?

01:19:31.760 It went down a little bit.

01:19:33.900 What did it end in?

01:19:35.580 300 bucks or so.

01:19:37.600 Oh, down $300.

01:19:38.880 Didn't end at $300.

01:19:40.020 No, it didn't end at $300.

01:19:41.100 That would be very bad.

01:19:41.840 I would be like, you should have mentioned that earlier.

01:19:43.640 I don't think it was that bad, Stu.

01:19:45.340 Yeah.

01:19:45.640 No, it was a drop.

01:19:47.560 You know, but it's been bouncing around the same area for a couple months now.

01:19:50.560 They've been saying that they think that it might hit a new low because something is something's going on.

01:19:57.560 And you could make the case that these are the whales that are getting out.

01:20:03.300 These are the industries that are saying, you know what?

01:20:06.240 Park it on the sidelines before they go in and gobble it up.

01:20:09.600 I don't know.

01:20:11.500 I don't know.

01:20:12.120 But the one thing I do know is cryptocurrency is here to stay.

01:20:16.860 In what form?

01:20:17.720 I don't know.

01:20:19.080 Bitcoin and blockchain here to stay.

01:20:23.420 Please find out all you can about it because it is part of your future.

01:20:28.060 So I'm not saying invest in it.

01:20:29.500 I'm saying learn about it right now.

01:20:33.080 Smartcryptocourse.com.

01:20:34.480 Call 877-PBL-BECK and get more information.

01:20:37.820 877-PBL-BECK.

01:20:40.660 Smartcryptocourse.com.

01:20:46.380 So who could win this election for the Democrats?

01:20:52.460 Because the Democrats are, they're putting in the most extreme candidates.

01:20:58.160 And that's because that's who the Democratic Party, as Stu pointed out earlier in the hour,

01:21:03.000 that's who the Democratic Party really is, is 51% are progressives.

01:21:08.880 Yeah.

01:21:09.080 And now that's doubled in the last 20 years.

01:21:11.280 Doubled the percentage that think that they're liberals and progressives slash socialists in some cases.

01:21:15.860 But as opposed to moderates and conservatives.

01:21:17.900 But what the political players in the world, and I mean the media,

01:21:22.460 and the Democrats and Republicans, the institutions,

01:21:26.300 they see that as the country's becoming more socialist.

01:21:30.740 But it's not.

01:21:32.100 It's actually, you know, it's more progressive.

01:21:34.840 It's more, it wants 100 different categories for male and female.

01:21:41.320 No, no, your overall number is getting smaller.

01:21:47.600 And you're starting to focus more and more and attract that kind of person.

01:21:53.420 So as they start to reach out to the Uber left,

01:21:58.100 can anyone turn that corner and come back and win a Democratic election?

01:22:03.160 We're going to look at the candidates who have announced and we think are going to announce when we come back.

01:22:11.120 First, let me tell you about Relief Factor.

01:22:12.960 Relief Factor is something that has really, truly given me relief in my life.

01:22:17.560 I feel like I've got my life back,

01:22:20.820 but I'm not the only person that uses Relief Factor around here that we know.

01:22:24.920 Yeah, I mean, one of the things we did as a couple was to wait,

01:22:29.740 kind of to have kids.

01:22:30.520 We didn't have them early.

01:22:31.360 We had them late.

01:22:32.000 So I have a five and seven-year-old.

01:22:33.720 And like, as you might know,

01:22:34.680 five and seven-year-olds run around and make me do a lot of things that I don't really want to do

01:22:37.540 because it's activity.

01:22:39.020 Wait till they turn 15.

01:22:40.560 Exactly.

01:22:41.200 And, you know, I'm going to be up.

01:22:42.940 And you're kind of the same situation, right?

01:22:44.480 You had kids later on.

01:22:46.120 Lifting your kids, you know, lifting your grandkids, right?

01:22:49.220 Like that can actually be a real problem.

01:22:50.780 And I haven't hit the huge pain area yet, but I know a lot of people have.

01:22:54.400 And a lot of people around here have been really helped by Relief Factor.

01:23:15.780 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:23:17.580 Today, we're looking at what are the Democrats going to run on in 2020?

01:23:24.540 Who is going to run?

01:23:25.880 Who's going to do this?

01:23:27.780 I mean, everybody else, I guess, is concentrating probably on, you know, the FBI.

01:23:32.160 The FBI said that Donald Trump was investigated.

01:23:37.160 Really?

01:23:37.680 You mean like Hillary Clinton?

01:23:39.200 Why is it such a big deal that he was investigated by the FBI

01:23:42.500 when you didn't think it was a big deal that Hillary Clinton was being investigated by the FBI?

01:23:47.580 So, there's no politics of meaning here.

01:23:52.060 What is in our future?

01:23:54.440 Not political games for political game's sake, but things.

01:23:58.720 This is important because the Democrats are getting so far left.

01:24:03.040 We can become a socialist country, and all that that entails in an Ocasio-Cortez sort of way, quickly.

01:24:12.160 If we don't have our act together, because that's where 51% of Democrats now want to go.

01:24:20.840 So, we begin there in one minute.

01:24:26.320 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:24:28.940 All right.

01:24:29.480 Our sponsor this half hour.

01:24:30.880 We are so thrilled to have Relief Factor as our sponsor.

01:24:35.940 Relief Factor gave me an awful lot of help starting back in December of last year.

01:24:42.500 I mean, a year before last.

01:24:44.320 I had really kind of gotten to the end of my rope.

01:24:47.040 And don't let me forget.

01:24:48.060 Please write this down.

01:24:48.840 I want to talk about something that I'm reading about health and also my fat challenge coming up in about 25 minutes.

01:24:56.160 But I just couldn't take it anymore.

01:24:59.660 I just couldn't live this way anymore.

01:25:01.480 And I don't want to be on prescription drugs.

01:25:04.380 So, how do you kill the pain if nothing else works?

01:25:07.140 Well, my wife said, please, just try Relief Factor.

01:25:10.200 I did.

01:25:10.900 I tried it for three weeks, just as they say, and it worked for me.

01:25:14.540 It dramatically changed my pain.

01:25:17.400 I'm not out of pain all the time, but I have far more better days, by far, than I ever have, at least in the last five years.

01:25:25.500 It's Relief Factor.

01:25:27.500 Please try it.

01:25:28.600 It works for 70% of the people.

01:25:30.460 It could work for you.

01:25:31.280 And if it does, you get your life back.

01:25:34.120 Go to relieffactor.com, relieffactor.com, or you can call them at 800-500-8384.

01:25:42.700 It's relieffactor.com.

01:25:45.140 So, this next election is really important because if the economy goes down, Donald Trump's going to have a really hard time winning the election.

01:26:02.920 And, unfortunately, somebody who will have an easy time winning the Democratic primary will be a socialist.

01:26:11.420 People will run towards socialistic properties and values if the economy is really, really hurting.

01:26:19.960 So, who are they going to run, and who's actually dangerous if they would win in the socialist front, but also who could beat Trump if there is no economic disturbance?

01:26:37.220 That's the hard one.

01:26:38.740 And that's one of the issues with thinking of elections as a binary topic where there's just two people and those are the only two people you could ever consider.

01:26:46.980 And it's a problem because it worked well, I think, for Trump in 2016.

01:26:51.460 Like, people who weren't necessarily thrilled about Trump saw Hillary Clinton and were like, eh, no.

01:26:57.900 However, the same thing might happen in 2020.

01:27:01.720 This is the risk if things go poorly.

01:27:03.840 Because if there's only two choices and the economy were to collapse or something went wrong unforeseen, then you have people saying, well, I don't like Trump, so I'll go with that other person.

01:27:14.480 And that other person might be an actual socialist, but if they can hide it well enough from the American people to not turn them off, they become the only other place to go, the only other game in town.

01:27:25.360 The question is, now let's just take out the economy stuff.

01:27:28.040 Let's just leave that off the table.

01:27:29.500 Deal with that if that happens.

01:27:31.180 Yep.

01:27:31.340 Okay.

01:27:31.960 So, let's say that Trump goes in as healthy as he is right now.

01:27:35.840 Things are the same.

01:27:37.520 Who do you run that is left enough for the left?

01:27:44.160 Because 51% of Democrats now consider themselves left, liberal, progressive.

01:27:52.180 Who do you run that is left enough for all of the ones that are going to get out everybody and devote, but then can come back and be center enough for the rest of America?

01:28:05.720 Right.

01:28:06.360 And can I add a third thing you have to do?

01:28:10.480 Survive Donald Trump.

01:28:11.600 Yes.

01:28:12.080 Because if there are certain people that don't have the personality type to be able to survive Donald Trump, I'll give you a great example.

01:28:21.080 Elizabeth Warren.

01:28:22.400 Elizabeth Warren will get slaughtered.

01:28:25.140 Oh, my God.

01:28:25.580 That'll be a disaster.

01:28:27.000 Again, if Donald Trump is about where he is now, which is like low to mid 40s approval rating.

01:28:32.640 He's kept his base.

01:28:33.720 He's kept Republicans on board.

01:28:35.200 He's got some independence.

01:28:36.720 He's not overly, you know, thrillingly popular, but he's got his base.

01:28:40.860 If we go into that next election, as the primary shifts, you know, kind of sifts its way out, then it's going to be one-on-one.

01:28:50.080 And Trump is going to be able to go after that other person and do what he does best, right?

01:28:53.960 He's going to put pressure on them all the time.

01:28:56.100 He's going to, they're going to have to answer.

01:28:57.400 He's going to rename them.

01:28:57.880 He's going to rename them.

01:28:58.740 He's going to, he's going to go after them in every speech.

01:29:01.780 And there's a certain type of person.

01:29:04.040 Elizabeth Warren is this type of person that cannot handle it.

01:29:08.060 She can't seem authentic.

01:29:09.460 She can't fake it.

01:29:11.000 Hillary Clinton had the exact same problem.

01:29:13.420 You know, this is when Hillary was in the middle of this and she's like, oh, I, you know what I know?

01:29:16.940 Pokemon go to the polls.

01:29:19.460 Like that was her risk.

01:29:20.780 Like this is how she dealt with it.

01:29:22.100 She's terrible.

01:29:22.740 And you know what?

01:29:24.180 I'm going to get me, um, a beer is, has to be setting off alarm bells all over the Democratic

01:29:30.860 Party because when he's coming after her with all these attacks and the way he's going to

01:29:34.680 come after her and name her and, and take every position she's had and make it into this big

01:29:38.860 thing and the media is going to follow it that way.

01:29:40.880 All he has to do is say, me smoke him one pump too.

01:29:45.000 He says that once and she's done.

01:29:47.360 She will not, she will just shut down and become a robot.

01:29:50.700 And this one's already played out, right?

01:29:53.140 He did say those things.

01:29:54.100 He did say Pocahontas.

01:29:55.320 He did call her all that.

01:29:56.480 And what did she do?

01:29:57.480 She thought it was a good idea to do a DNA test to prove she was one 1024th Native American.

01:30:03.760 That was her way of handling it.

01:30:05.060 She has no capability to deal with the pressure of Donald Trump.

01:30:08.540 Now, Joe Biden, on the other hand, is a guy who's been in these waters for a long time.

01:30:13.320 He's more, not policy wise, but he's more Trump than your average politician.

01:30:18.280 He can insult you.

01:30:19.480 He can come back with snappy comebacks.

01:30:21.100 He's kind of likable end of the guy, the bar sort of way.

01:30:24.380 He's kind of.

01:30:24.940 And I say this, I say this with as much endearment as, as I possibly can.

01:30:30.660 When everybody said, I like the, I like the guy down the, the, the end of the bar.

01:30:35.220 Basically, that's somebody who's just saying crazy things, but you know, you're all thinking

01:30:40.780 it.

01:30:41.240 You're all thinking it in the bar, but he's just saying, he's, he's got to out crazy, crazy.

01:30:46.840 He's, we already have the guy at the end of the bar.

01:30:49.280 And that's what people liked about Donald Trump was he was just saying it.

01:30:53.100 He wasn't afraid of people like Elizabeth Warren, who would say, how dare you?

01:30:58.920 Right.

01:30:59.280 Do you know that the, the number of Indians that died and I am one of them and how dare

01:31:05.660 you even quit?

01:31:06.380 They're sick of that.

01:31:07.460 Yeah.

01:31:07.600 They want somebody at the end of the bar.

01:31:09.360 Who's like, shut up, Pocahontas.

01:31:12.300 Yes.

01:31:12.840 Okay.

01:31:13.240 That's what they want.

01:31:14.380 And I think this is the most basic hurdle to clear for any 2020 candidate.

01:31:20.200 You have to be, you know, who else can't do it?

01:31:22.060 Cory Booker.

01:31:23.020 Oh my gosh.

01:31:23.580 Cory Booker.

01:31:24.140 I am Spartacus.

01:31:25.080 That guy cannot handle the pressure of Donald Trump.

01:31:26.920 I don't think that Beto can either.

01:31:29.240 I think Beto is interesting.

01:31:30.960 I'm not sure on that one yet.

01:31:31.820 I'm not sure either, but there's, there's, there's, I don't know.

01:31:36.320 There's too much stagecraft in him.

01:31:38.560 Then again, I felt there was stagecraft in Obama and it worked.

01:31:43.440 It worked.

01:31:44.240 It did work.

01:31:44.980 Although Obama never had to face Trump.

01:31:48.120 I mean, Obama had a, a way about him that maybe he would have been able to deal with

01:31:52.480 it in a different sort of fashion than I think Joe Biden would.

01:31:56.600 I mean, Joe Biden will just start, oh my gosh, that guy's a moron.

01:31:59.420 Don't even worry about it.

01:32:00.120 Like that's the type of thing he'll say.

01:32:01.540 Yeah.

01:32:02.100 Obama, you got to have to put yourself back.

01:32:04.960 Like if Obama was a conservative and Obama running the first time, uh, I mean, he was

01:32:10.740 Mr. Arugula.

01:32:11.900 I mean, that's all that, that's all that Donald Trump had to say.

01:32:15.260 Oh yeah.

01:32:15.660 I mean, you give him the Arugula guy and he's done.

01:32:19.240 It's one of the reasons I think talk show listeners like Donald Trump so much.

01:32:22.560 Cause a lot of times he sounds like a talk show host.

01:32:24.240 He's like, he sounds like a guy you'd listen to on conservative talk radio.

01:32:27.340 Who's just like, oh, these, these people are a bunch of morons.

01:32:30.160 They're totally incompetent and they can't do anything.

01:32:32.420 Well, that's, that's what, that's what talk radio is.

01:32:35.060 Right.

01:32:35.300 A lot of times, um, you can get a lot more depth than that, but I mean, that is basically

01:32:39.420 like what, what, what we're talking about here every day.

01:32:41.920 It's the average person.

01:32:43.360 It's speaking the average person's language.

01:32:46.000 Yeah.

01:32:46.220 Taking a 5,000 page policy proposal and turning into something that you don't want to hang

01:32:50.180 yourself after listening to.

01:32:51.940 So, uh, I think that's a huge hurdle.

01:32:54.160 So that Biden is, and it's interesting.

01:32:56.380 I think the audience, it was, we've kind of informally polling them over the past couple of

01:33:00.800 weeks of who you think can pull that off.

01:33:02.340 A lot of people see Biden as the person who can do it.

01:33:04.960 I think so too.

01:33:05.520 He can say, maybe, maybe, maybe.

01:33:07.260 I mean, nobody's done it yet.

01:33:08.520 No, but he can say to, uh, the left during the primary, um, I was with Barack Obama,

01:33:14.480 man.

01:33:14.760 You know who I am.

01:33:15.540 I can, I can do all these crazy liberal policy things.

01:33:17.600 And he'll use the word man.

01:33:18.220 And he'll use the word man.

01:33:19.120 Right.

01:33:19.480 Which is what he does.

01:33:20.260 Right.

01:33:20.700 And he will go out there and say, look, I passed, you know, you know, healthcare.

01:33:24.520 We got to go further on that.

01:33:25.660 He'll be able to convince them that he's left.

01:33:28.360 Then he'll be able to come back to the middle and at least attempt to get back that sort

01:33:32.780 of rust belt vote that Hillary lost.

01:33:34.660 He'll be able to say, Hey, I went to Katie's diner.

01:33:36.480 That place has been closed for 30 years and it was great.

01:33:38.560 And I'm a blue collar guy.

01:33:39.920 Everyone calls me middle-class Joe.

01:33:41.280 I'm not saying he's convincing on it, but he at least attempts it where Hillary didn't

01:33:45.020 even attempt it.

01:33:46.440 And he can actually go and sit with bikers.

01:33:50.300 Right.

01:33:50.820 And, and, and, and be comfortable.

01:33:52.780 The bikers aren't comfortable, but he's comfortable.

01:33:55.020 They feel very weird.

01:33:56.160 You pointed this out in the famous picture of Joe Biden creepily like hugging and like

01:34:01.480 somewhat a me tooing a biker, a woman who's sitting there.

01:34:05.820 There's another guy in the picture and his, his face is like, Oh my God, what am I looking

01:34:10.880 at?

01:34:11.060 He's like pissed off.

01:34:12.120 But I had never noticed this before.

01:34:14.100 He, cause he looks offended.

01:34:15.640 Like this is, this is not right.

01:34:18.000 He's like thinking like a, he's almost like royalties.

01:34:20.160 He's like, I, I, how dare you do that?

01:34:22.420 Right.

01:34:22.660 And then you notice his name.

01:34:23.680 Um, I don't remember it.

01:34:25.260 Troll.

01:34:25.900 Troll.

01:34:26.460 That's right.

01:34:26.800 He even offended a guy named troll.

01:34:29.000 He was president troll on his leather jacket.

01:34:31.960 It did say president.

01:34:33.680 And underneath it said troll.

01:34:35.360 He pissed off for president troll.

01:34:37.620 Right.

01:34:38.000 So he's that creepy.

01:34:38.900 But Joe Biden feels comfortable.

01:34:40.700 Remember Hillary Clinton got out of her van.

01:34:43.520 She had in a mini van.

01:34:46.480 Right.

01:34:46.840 Come on.

01:34:47.860 She was not, she, that's not her.

01:34:50.180 So she went on her, her listening to her in a van, trying to pretend she liked it.

01:34:57.040 She never embraced.

01:34:58.100 She should have gone and said, I don't understand fair food, but I I'm digging it.

01:35:02.500 I mean, it's not my scene, but I'm digging it.

01:35:04.840 She, she could not do that.

01:35:06.800 Instead.

01:35:07.120 She was like, what?

01:35:08.200 I'm perfectly fine with, you know, deep fried snicker bars on a stick.

01:35:12.560 I make these for Bill all the time.

01:35:14.880 Just shut up.

01:35:16.760 Inauthentic is what Hillary Clinton is.

01:35:18.540 Inauthentic is what Cory Booker is.

01:35:20.140 And Joe Biden is authentic.

01:35:21.700 Yeah.

01:35:21.860 Take politics out of it.

01:35:22.840 Biden is like the guy who like sold you, uh, your, uh, your forklift and he comes to

01:35:31.780 the holiday parties and he's fun.

01:35:33.300 And you're like, he's a salesman, but I like the guy, right?

01:35:35.860 Take politics out of it.

01:35:36.840 That's kind of who the guy is.

01:35:38.220 And he's able to pull that persona off.

01:35:40.460 Cory Booker's not doing that.

01:35:41.640 Elizabeth Warren's not doing that.

01:35:43.200 Um, you know, Beto, I think Beto comes off.

01:35:45.780 I mean, Beto essentially is the guy who ran against Frank Underwood in season four of house

01:35:49.940 of cards, uh, where he's like good looking guy.

01:35:53.200 And he's, uh, he's, he's live streaming his dental appointments and, and all of that,

01:35:57.880 you know, stage craft.

01:36:00.140 He's essentially trying to replicate that campaign, which, uh, I mean, there's a lot that went

01:36:05.320 on with that one, but didn't really work.

01:36:06.840 Uh, for multiple reasons.

01:36:08.620 Point being though, you, you, you can't, if you can't clear the hurdle of surviving Trump,

01:36:13.040 you, you can't beat Trump unless something dramatic happens with the economy or something.

01:36:17.720 Now here's the problem.

01:36:19.220 As much as Joe Biden can say, Hey, I'm the Barack Obama guy.

01:36:22.860 Barack Obama came out this weekend and said, it's time for new blood.

01:36:26.480 Well, unless Joe's getting a transfusion, Joe ain't new blood.

01:36:35.460 We'll go into that here in just a second.

01:36:37.220 I just thought this is a giant bowl of candy for us to eat out of every single day for

01:36:44.100 the next year and a half.

01:36:45.020 It is.

01:36:45.440 All right.

01:36:45.720 Let me tell you, tell you a little bit about car shield.

01:36:47.640 When it comes to repairs, you need options.

01:36:52.440 Uh, sometimes you will go in and you're just going to get a simple repair.

01:36:55.840 You think it's a simple repair comes back.

01:36:57.700 It's a thousand bucks.

01:36:59.540 Um, my son-in-law went in for a pair costume.

01:37:01.920 Um, what three or 5,000 and they had to pay it cause they didn't have car shield.

01:37:06.020 I'm like, Hey dummy.

01:37:07.220 Hey, what do you talk about all the time on the air?

01:37:09.000 Why don't you listen to the freaking show car shield?

01:37:11.000 I went in, I had, and I honestly can't tell you is six to $8,000 repair.

01:37:16.280 The reason why I can't tell you how much it was is because I didn't pay it and have to

01:37:19.940 car shield covered it.

01:37:55.580 Um, break for 10 seconds, station ID.

01:38:06.080 So Joe Biden may be that old style kind of car salesman that, uh, uh, that people are kind

01:38:15.400 of tired of, but Hillary was, I mean, she was kind of her own mob.

01:38:21.200 You know what I mean?

01:38:22.220 You kind of, everybody knew and everybody in the party was sick of her because they knew

01:38:28.300 that there was, you know, if you will, a political mob that they'll break legs.

01:38:34.340 You're not going to cross the Clintons.

01:38:36.320 They'll break legs, uh, and you'll be destroyed.

01:38:39.080 And people were sick of that.

01:38:41.300 And Barack Obama had that, but he never did it.

01:38:44.720 He had code pink and, and everybody else break the legs, you know, and he could say what I'm

01:38:50.540 when they go low, we go high.

01:38:52.300 All these organizations tied to me are going very low, but when they go low, we go high.

01:38:56.080 Right.

01:38:56.380 He was able to pull that off.

01:38:57.440 If you, you know, you have media matters and code pink doing that for you.

01:39:00.960 You don't have to ever make a threat.

01:39:02.900 Yeah.

01:39:03.120 Um, and, and he, he could, he had such cred with the left, the deep left.

01:39:10.040 He never had to go deep left.

01:39:12.600 He never did.

01:39:13.620 He never had to say it.

01:39:14.800 I mean, we, a lot of the stuff we dug up on Obama was stuff he did before he was running

01:39:18.920 and he denied ever saying it.

01:39:21.200 Even though we had video audio of him doing it.

01:39:24.100 Right.

01:39:24.920 Uh, so he never had to say it.

01:39:26.980 He could pretty much play to the center and play to the aspirations.

01:39:31.180 I don't know anybody else that can do that.

01:39:34.760 I mean, because he had, he had the history behind him.

01:39:38.720 So a woman, maybe Kamala Harris, but is she going to have to play so far to the left that

01:39:46.460 she could ever come back for the rest of the country?

01:39:49.160 And I think his path, her path is different than Biden's.

01:39:51.400 Biden's path is depend on his Obama sort of credibility with the left, win the primary.

01:39:57.180 And because you also have a backing of a big part of the establishment, most likely, and

01:40:02.020 then get there, then go back to the middle and be able to handle Trump.

01:40:06.080 Kamala Harris is not, she's running to the left.

01:40:08.320 I mean, she's, she has to prove herself.

01:40:10.100 She doesn't have anything to fall back on.

01:40:11.540 She would be the person that could bring the party together because, you know, Biden's a

01:40:17.260 thousand years old.

01:40:18.480 And, uh, will he run for two terms?

01:40:22.200 I don't know.

01:40:23.560 You know, she's really in competition right now with Elizabeth Warren, right?

01:40:26.820 To take that Sanders sort of wing of the party.

01:40:29.540 She's going to run in that socialist sort of left positioning.

01:40:32.540 However, unlike, well, unlike Warren, she can, she's much more well-equipped to be able

01:40:37.040 to deal with Donald Trump.

01:40:38.020 She's a prosecutor.

01:40:38.920 She's a prosecutor.

01:40:39.300 So she could, um, uh, not in, not in head to head.

01:40:44.020 I mean, I think she'd do better.

01:40:46.060 Biden is the one that's winning head to head.

01:40:48.820 I shouldn't say winning has a chance above water.

01:40:52.620 Yeah.

01:40:52.840 No one else has ever won against him one-on-one.

01:40:56.960 So he would have a chance of keeping his head above water.

01:41:01.340 Um, I don't think Kamala Harris, she would have a slight chance, but only because she's

01:41:06.220 a prosecutor.

01:41:06.900 But I think that she is so far left that he could just make her look like an extremist

01:41:13.960 quite easily.

01:41:15.540 It would be hard.

01:41:16.360 The path that's similar to Biden is Sherrod Brown from, uh, Ohio, who a lot of people believe

01:41:22.260 is going to run his, he's been successful in Ohio as a Democrat, even when, when Ohio

01:41:27.360 is voting for Republicans, they'll still, still keep voting him in.

01:41:30.000 Uh, he's sort of a populist, you know, he can be the rumpled coat kind of guy to come

01:41:34.200 out and that's how they're going to try to portray him.

01:41:36.080 Um, you know, whether he can stand up to Trump, I don't know.

01:41:38.540 Maybe.

01:41:39.360 Um, but I don't, I don't necessarily think so.

01:41:41.540 Um, Cory Booker, no, right?

01:41:43.180 We're going through this whole list here.

01:41:44.320 No way.

01:41:45.260 Kirsten Gillibrand.

01:41:46.220 I don't, I don't think she, I don't think she's really a legitimate contender.

01:41:49.940 Um, Tim Kaine.

01:41:51.700 Tim Kaine is the most forgettable vice presidential candidate.

01:41:53.940 When I said Tim Kaine, how many of you thought, who's Tim Kaine?

01:41:55.820 He ran for vice president in 2016, the most recent election.

01:41:59.820 It's amazing.

01:42:00.300 And no one remembers who he is.

01:42:01.460 He was awful.

01:42:02.880 Awful.

01:42:03.280 A giant zilch added nothing to their campaign.

01:42:05.720 Nothing.

01:42:06.040 An embarrassment.

01:42:07.100 Um, Amy Klobuchar is one from, she's from, uh, one candidate from, um, Minnesota and she's

01:42:13.600 being pushed out there as like a, a more on the Biden-esque wing.

01:42:17.480 Like I've heard a lot of talk about Biden Klobuchar as a potential final, uh, where they

01:42:22.040 land female, uh, obviously, uh, Senator from Minnesota.

01:42:26.760 She's not seen as super far left as like a Kamala Harris or Elizabeth Warren.

01:42:32.440 She's going to be plenty left for Democrats in reality.

01:42:35.500 Um, but that's one they're talking about as a potential vice presidential candidate.

01:42:40.600 Um, scrolling through this list here, we talked about Kamala Harris, Bernie Sanders.

01:42:44.240 Will he run?

01:42:45.040 I think the establishment of the Democrats are saying, you're done.

01:42:50.000 Get out.

01:42:51.040 They keep, there's a lot of leaks on, of negative stories about, uh, Bernie Sanders.

01:42:57.860 You think he's going to run?

01:42:58.940 I think he's going to run because he's going to want to, he's going to want to direct the,

01:43:03.140 um, conversation.

01:43:05.320 So he goes into, if you think about these candidates and groups, right, you have the Biden, Sherrod

01:43:09.560 Brown group.

01:43:10.060 You have the Elizabeth Warren, Kamala Harris, Bernie Sanders, you know, Tulsi Gabbard, all

01:43:14.840 these, there's going to be a ton in that socialist sort of wing.

01:43:17.780 The other wings are going to be less represented, I think.

01:43:20.080 Um, but Bernie Sanders is, if he, if he's there, he's going to draw a lot of attention

01:43:24.360 for a while.

01:43:25.320 Yeah, but he'll, he will, he will force the Kamala Harris's.

01:43:29.480 And I think this is what he'll want to do.

01:43:31.620 He's going to force the, the others to actually run left.

01:43:36.900 You take Bernie Sanders out.

01:43:39.060 I think if I'm a leftist, I want Bernie Sanders in because I want Bernie Sanders to keep, I

01:43:45.660 want him to root out the leftist who aren't afraid to say it.

01:43:48.960 He's got nothing to lose, right?

01:43:50.180 He's nothing.

01:43:50.860 He's not a, he's not looking for a legacy when it comes to success.

01:43:55.160 He's looking for a legacy as, as the guy who, did you know there was a candidate back

01:43:59.100 then that really tried to be socialist?

01:44:00.980 He was the first to admit it.

01:44:02.040 Isn't that wonderful?

01:44:02.900 If you're a Democrat, you might think that.

01:44:04.940 And that's what Sanders credibility is.

01:44:07.340 However, I think what the Democrats would love is a guy like Beto who can have all the

01:44:13.060 same policies as Sanders, but hide them and not say he's a socialist.

01:44:17.620 I agree.

01:44:17.880 Act like the everyman.

01:44:19.100 I mean, the guy came within three points in Texas.

01:44:20.940 Can he win some of these swing states?

01:44:23.000 I mean, the argument would be yes.

01:44:24.720 Certainly his argument will be yes when he runs, which I definitely think is happening.

01:44:29.220 So it's, his path is he's in between those two groups and that's why there's so much,

01:44:33.740 you know, thrills up the leg going on for the Democrats right now.

01:44:36.820 Oh my gosh, if I hear that one like that.

01:44:38.680 And you know what?

01:44:39.780 Chris Matthews, he's exactly the kind of guy that would give Chris Matthews that dingle.

01:44:44.000 Oh yes.

01:44:46.300 You're listening to Glenn Beck.

01:44:48.700 I am watching the economy.

01:44:53.180 I am.

01:44:53.600 I'm trying to keep an eye on what's happening over in China.

01:44:57.120 What's happening tomorrow.

01:44:58.020 They vote on Brexit.

01:44:59.580 The stock market is really rocky.

01:45:01.840 I just saw a little while ago was down 120 some points with the government shutdown here.

01:45:07.060 Brexit tomorrow.

01:45:08.840 The world is on the edge and anything could happen.

01:45:13.280 If there's any major disruption, this thing could come unraveling quickly.

01:45:18.400 Are you prepared?

01:45:20.080 I will tell you that I took my 401k.

01:45:22.660 I took a look at it recently.

01:45:24.600 I have taken 75 cents of every dollar that I've had in my retirement stuff that you might have in your 401k.

01:45:32.040 I've gotten it out of the stock market.

01:45:33.980 Where do you put it?

01:45:35.480 Gold is the safe haven.

01:45:37.920 Please consider gold or silver.

01:45:40.580 Remember, call Goldline now and get the information.

01:45:43.640 Do your own homework.

01:45:44.600 You're smart enough to figure this out.

01:45:46.360 866-GOLDLINE or goldline.com.

01:45:49.560 So is a wall immoral?

01:45:51.500 A Democrat was actually asked if that's true or not.

01:45:54.140 And the surprise answer coming up on the Glenn Beck Program.

01:46:00.520 Glad you're here.

01:46:01.340 This is the Glenn Beck Program.

01:46:03.000 Welcome to it.

01:46:04.780 I mentioned last week that I have a goal of losing 50 pounds this year.

01:46:13.760 And, man, I'm looking forward to it.

01:46:16.220 It shouldn't be bad.

01:46:16.900 I mean, you didn't even have a goal of gaining 50 pounds.

01:46:19.120 You pulled that one off.

01:46:20.520 It's pretty good.

01:46:21.380 Anyway, so, and I want to thank Jeffy for this.

01:46:28.340 But it's amazing how a friend's heart attack affects your life.

01:46:32.580 So I've invited people to join if you want to join.

01:46:36.460 And I'm going back and forth.

01:46:37.600 I've been reading The Four Hour Body by Tim Ferriss.

01:46:41.660 Have you read that?

01:46:42.680 No.

01:46:43.260 Do I look like a person who's, I mean, a four minute body maybe.

01:46:46.520 Yeah, you do look like a guy.

01:46:47.720 So I just love his philosophy.

01:46:50.460 It's like his philosophy is everybody's body is different.

01:46:53.820 So you've got to do your own kind of watching your own body.

01:46:58.620 And he talks about how you can measure the results of anything that you're trying.

01:47:03.940 And he went to the extent of, I mean, he had body implants put in to be able to monitor his blood and fat burn and everything else.

01:47:14.940 I mean, he was taking blood tests all the time.

01:47:17.720 Uh, because he's that kind of guy.

01:47:19.660 He wanted scientifically.

01:47:20.760 I want to know what's right, what the right fuel is for my body.

01:47:24.700 Um, but he talks about how, you know, the, after a certain point with exercise, it's waste.

01:47:30.820 You're not gaining anything of it.

01:47:33.220 And he's like, so why are you doing it?

01:47:35.720 Uh, and he's in this, you know, you got to eat every four hours, et cetera, et cetera.

01:47:40.200 So I kind of like his philosophy.

01:47:44.140 So I started talking to my wife about it.

01:47:46.220 My wife said, Oh, I've been reading a book too.

01:47:48.800 Oh.

01:47:49.180 And so she read this book called, uh, medical medium.

01:47:58.240 Now she got this from a good friend of ours who is a rational human being and has MS and is really sick.

01:48:06.900 And she said, my gosh, this has made all the difference in my life.

01:48:11.820 This guy, his, his philosophy on diet.

01:48:16.200 So I'm like, okay, so what's the medical medium?

01:48:19.920 What does that mean?

01:48:21.040 She said, well, he's a medium.

01:48:24.940 He's what?

01:48:25.620 He's what?

01:48:26.200 He's a, he's a medical medium, a spiritual.

01:48:29.500 Yeah.

01:48:30.540 And I, so I said, Oh, this, uh, have you read the four hour body?

01:48:35.640 If you read the four hour body, she said, listen, now this guy's story.

01:48:40.080 Cause I read part of it this weekend.

01:48:41.720 This guy's story is amazing.

01:48:42.840 We have to have him on the air.

01:48:44.800 Um, his story is, is that when he was four years old, um, he said he saw a spirit at four at the table.

01:48:54.240 Uh, and, uh, you know, he was just barely talking and stuff.

01:48:58.240 And, and, uh, he saw this old man standing behind his grandmother and nobody else could see the old man.

01:49:05.060 And the old man was talking to him and he said, say lung cancer.

01:49:09.260 And he was four.

01:49:10.360 He didn't know what he was saying.

01:49:11.420 And everybody at the table was like, what, honey, what do you, what do you, what?

01:49:14.920 And so he said, this guy said, go stand here, come here, stand next to your grandmother.

01:49:20.260 Look at your grandmother.

01:49:21.740 Now say these words.

01:49:23.440 Grandma, grandma, grandma has, has lung lung cancer, cancer.

01:49:32.260 And as it turns out, she went in and she found out she had lung cancer.

01:49:36.400 That is a really creepy moment.

01:49:37.960 Creepy.

01:49:38.480 Okay.

01:49:38.960 Now this guy says that he has had this ability his whole life.

01:49:44.220 And he says, it's just compassion that he feels the spirit of compassion.

01:49:49.040 And he can, he can feel what people are going through and he can pinpoint things, blah, blah,

01:49:54.760 blah, blah, blah.

01:49:55.700 Whether I buy this or not, I don't know.

01:49:57.620 I want to talk to this guy, but I read what he said about, cause I have, um, uh, adrenal

01:50:04.280 exhaustion.

01:50:05.400 I have adrenal fatigue and, um, the way he describes it is exact the way he is.

01:50:14.300 I mean, I've talked to doctors and they've been like, I don't know what that, but the

01:50:18.760 way he's saying is exactly the way I feel.

01:50:21.720 And he said, you might have one or more of the symptoms.

01:50:24.520 And then he lists like 25, I have like 28 of the 25 and, um, but he said, uh, you have

01:50:33.740 to do two years of totally changing everything.

01:50:38.360 And, uh, you have to start by having 30 days of raw, like salad only.

01:50:49.580 And my wife is like, and I said, well, you know, let's talk about that.

01:50:56.400 And maybe, you know, it's 28 days.

01:50:58.080 He said, do it for 28.

01:50:59.120 That's February.

01:50:59.960 So maybe we can start in February.

01:51:01.080 Want a bowl of ice cream.

01:51:02.560 And, um, she said last night, she said, we're starting this, uh, before February.

01:51:07.820 And I'm like, oh, okay.

01:51:10.880 Yes.

01:51:11.420 All right.

01:51:11.860 Let's, uh, wow.

01:51:13.060 I can't wait to do it.

01:51:14.840 So what a man you are.

01:51:17.060 Hmm.

01:51:17.860 Wow.

01:51:18.500 Look at that backbone.

01:51:19.940 It's impressive.

01:51:21.040 It is impressive.

01:51:22.380 What are you keeping your, uh, your Liberty safe?

01:51:24.480 I have guns in mind.

01:51:25.400 What are you keeping?

01:51:26.080 Investments.

01:51:26.880 Investments.

01:51:27.440 Investments.

01:51:28.040 Purse investments.

01:51:28.780 Purse investments.

01:51:29.900 Right, right.

01:51:30.480 Purse based.

01:51:31.280 So you are, and you are, you're one.

01:51:33.620 I didn't say I was a man.

01:51:34.920 I said you weren't one.

01:51:36.800 Okay.

01:51:37.280 I just wanted to make sure.

01:51:38.700 Just want to make sure.

01:51:39.380 So you're really going to do this?

01:51:40.940 I don't know.

01:51:42.000 I've already done the raw thing.

01:51:43.580 I said to Tanya, I said, we did the raw thing.

01:51:46.060 Remember the nightmare that was raw?

01:51:50.860 Oh, raw foods, man.

01:51:52.840 That's, that's a, that's a rough one, but this isn't just raw food.

01:51:55.600 This is not like raw meat.

01:51:57.020 And you know, it's not that it's just, what do I, why do I, why, why do I, why, why do

01:52:04.840 I take feel of greens?

01:52:06.360 Cause you don't want to eat salad.

01:52:07.480 I hate salad.

01:52:08.960 This is 28 days of nothing but salad and fruit.

01:52:13.680 I, it's like the anti Glenn.

01:52:16.280 It's like everything that you hate, you should have.

01:52:20.900 That's, that's going to be an interesting thing to go through because certainly there

01:52:24.640 won't be any ramifications on my life from you having to eat raw celery every day for

01:52:28.560 28 days.

01:52:29.060 Oh no, no, no, no.

01:52:30.220 Celery juice.

01:52:31.620 I get celery juice.

01:52:32.500 Oh, that sounds pretty good then.

01:52:33.640 Yeah.

01:52:33.860 So you get all of the impact of celery without actually chewing anything crunchy.

01:52:40.040 Have you looked in any of the science of this?

01:52:41.820 Are you just jumping on another diet trend?

01:52:44.280 Is that what's, is that what's happening?

01:52:45.500 No, it's a, I, well, yes, yes, she is.

01:52:48.900 That's why I kind of want to go for the four hour body thing, but I'm not going to win that

01:52:53.080 battle.

01:52:53.380 You're not going to win that?

01:52:54.020 I'm not going to win that.

01:52:54.520 I read the, um, Penn Jillette Presto book.

01:52:57.100 Do you remember this?

01:52:57.900 Yes.

01:52:58.040 He released it a year or two ago.

01:52:59.660 It's called Presto, how I lost a hundred pounds or something.

01:53:02.480 First of all, it's a great book because it's Penn Jillette.

01:53:04.280 So it's just funny.

01:53:05.100 It's interesting.

01:53:05.840 Yeah.

01:53:05.980 He's always an interesting guy, but the way he did it and he's an admitted extremist, right?

01:53:10.960 So he, he basically went on this diet in which I think it was for, it was at least two weeks

01:53:18.440 if it wasn't a month, uh, where the only thing he ate all day, every day was potatoes.

01:53:25.200 Now that, if you're thinking of the low carb thing or whatever, like it's definitely not

01:53:31.560 that right.

01:53:32.240 It was only potatoes in any quantity that he wanted, but no added sugar, I mean salt, no

01:53:38.220 added butter, nothing.

01:53:40.080 And he ate just that.

01:53:41.240 And then he slowly introduced new foods like celery and like, you know, lettuce, right?

01:53:49.880 So he was super restrictive, but this is, it's a sprint rather than a marathon, right?

01:53:55.740 So the idea being that he lost a hundred pounds in 90 days, I believe it was.

01:54:01.960 So think about that.

01:54:03.240 You've got to do it for 90 days and 90 days is kind of hell, right?

01:54:06.740 But when you're done with the 90 days, he kept it off because he wound up, the idea behind

01:54:12.240 the diet is that you, especially the first two weeks, you get to the point of a, you're

01:54:16.600 kind of sick of potatoes.

01:54:17.440 So you don't really, you're not trying to eat them all the time when you know, all you

01:54:20.080 can eat is potatoes.

01:54:20.660 You don't get that excited about eating.

01:54:22.140 It also makes your palate incredibly bland.

01:54:26.620 So everything, like he's like the first time I had a bite of, I don't remember what it was

01:54:30.300 of tomato or something.

01:54:31.280 He's like, it was like the most unbelievable tasting thing I've ever had in my life.

01:54:35.980 It was like incredibly exciting because I had had potatoes nonstop for two weeks.

01:54:42.660 And when he puts a little, like he'll put on Tabasco on something and it's like a flavor

01:54:47.040 explosion to him.

01:54:48.160 And he eventually got to the point where he no longer craved the bad food.

01:54:52.380 See, I think I honestly, I, and I don't, I, I, I, I say this knowing, you know, the pain

01:54:59.500 involved in it here, but you have this Bell palsy thing that you've gone through before

01:55:04.040 when I was, yeah, when you were younger and you had it flare up when we were in Philadelphia

01:55:07.900 and you lost all taste, taste, smell too.

01:55:12.160 No, just taste, just taste.

01:55:13.280 Well, taste, uh, it started with a one side of my tongue and then it started to the others.

01:55:16.700 And then I couldn't taste anything for a period of three to six months.

01:55:20.240 But he never, but he never said anything to any of his friends.

01:55:22.980 Not a word, not a word.

01:55:24.380 Just like, oh, I didn't know you needed to know the details of my senses.

01:55:28.220 Who loses the sense of taste and doesn't say to their friends, you know, I can't taste

01:55:35.500 anything on half of my tongue.

01:55:36.880 Isn't that weird?

01:55:37.740 Well, it started with that, then it was the whole thing.

01:55:39.440 Yeah.

01:55:40.000 For six months.

01:55:41.420 Yeah.

01:55:41.560 The only reason why I found out is because I was sitting at a really good restaurant with

01:55:45.320 him and I heard him order and he said, what's the texture of that?

01:55:49.320 Just something crunchy, whatever you've got that's crunchy.

01:55:52.480 And I'm like, who orders food like that?

01:55:55.300 And I've actually thought of that.

01:55:56.840 If you could, if you could lose the sense of taste.

01:56:00.080 Yeah.

01:56:00.580 It's the one we don't need.

01:56:01.720 I mean, what do we need taste for?

01:56:03.340 Yes.

01:56:03.540 It makes your life happier, but it also makes you into a fatso, which is why.

01:56:07.120 I mean, the reason I am not the way I'm supposed to be is because food tastes good.

01:56:12.420 It's not my fault.

01:56:13.260 It's the food's fault.

01:56:14.520 If I didn't have, I can deal with four senses or whatever it is.

01:56:17.640 I can, you know, let's taste.

01:56:19.280 What do you need that for?

01:56:20.120 All it is.

01:56:20.540 Just take an iron to your tongue then.

01:56:22.580 Well, that way you'd feel that.

01:56:23.700 That's touch.

01:56:24.600 Yeah.

01:56:24.800 You'd feel that for a while.

01:56:26.820 You wouldn't suck on some ice for a while.

01:56:28.600 It wouldn't taste bad.

01:56:29.980 I don't know.

01:56:30.620 I mean, I think there's, there's an argument to be made for one of these type of extreme diets.

01:56:34.580 I think most people say there isn't, and I think that that's not necessarily what it

01:56:38.900 doesn't work with everybody.

01:56:40.080 Again, that's why the four hour, I could see us like this guy's point is you have to do

01:56:45.900 these things for your body.

01:56:47.220 And I've been there and done that and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

01:56:51.480 However, you know, you can't, I just can't stay in that extreme zone.

01:56:57.820 I just can't stay there.

01:56:59.060 That's what I like about the four hour body diet is, you know, like when we were on Atkins,

01:57:04.880 I was on Atkins for years, for years, didn't have a problem with it because Friday nights

01:57:08.900 I went out and I had whatever I wanted.

01:57:10.280 And a four hour body, he's like, you know, pick a day, whatever your day is, eat whatever

01:57:15.880 you want, because you'll never stay on anything.

01:57:19.400 If it is all about depriving yourself of the stuff you love, just eat it in one day.

01:57:27.180 Yeah.

01:57:27.640 And that's, I mean, that stuff is true.

01:57:29.220 There's a book called the bad food Bible, which I read over vacation, which is awesome.

01:57:32.740 It's basically all the actual science between every single, you know, health claim that you

01:57:38.800 read on Pinterest, right?

01:57:40.560 Like, you know, these things that are like, oh, you can't eat this food.

01:57:43.100 And it's like, well, why can't I eat that food?

01:57:44.480 And you look at the science of, there's nothing behind 95% of this stuff that freaks everybody

01:57:49.500 out and people avoid the things that would make them happy, things that make their life

01:57:54.160 a little bit more enjoyable because they're terrified of what they've read on the internet.

01:57:58.160 And then when you look at the science, it's not there at all for almost all of these

01:58:02.420 things.

01:58:02.700 I have to show you about what works for you.

01:58:04.180 I have to show you if anybody's listening, if Tim is my son-in-law is in, I have to have

01:58:09.460 him bring in his lunch.

01:58:10.560 His wife is making his lunch.

01:58:12.060 His wife, not my daughter, his wife is making.

01:58:14.440 You have no responsibility.

01:58:15.740 No responsibility for this one.

01:58:17.220 I looked at it the other day.

01:58:19.240 Do you remember?

01:58:19.960 Did you see Lord of the Rings?

01:58:21.460 I probably did.

01:58:23.060 I don't relate to this.

01:58:23.600 I don't like those.

01:58:24.120 Anybody who saw Lord of the Rings, remember when the elves gave them this bread and they wrapped

01:58:29.980 it up in the leaf and then tied it around?

01:58:32.180 That's what his sandwiches look like now.

01:58:34.880 That's not a sandwich if it's tied in a leaf.

01:58:36.820 Thank you.

01:58:37.540 It's not, right?

01:58:39.020 It's like tied into a leaf.

01:58:40.600 You got to eat the stupid leaf.

01:58:42.160 Even the hobbit didn't eat the leaf.

01:58:45.400 And he has to eat the leaf?

01:58:46.720 He eats the leaf.

01:58:48.280 It's like, I'm with you, man.

01:58:50.280 I'm with you.

01:58:50.740 I'll help pay for the divorce attorney if you want.

01:58:53.020 I mean, I'll comfort my daughter, but not your wife.

01:58:57.860 Right.

01:58:58.300 Not on that.

01:58:59.060 All right.

01:58:59.380 Our sponsor this half hour is Simply Safe.

01:59:02.900 Simply Safe.

01:59:03.760 Almost half of Americans make a New Year's resolution every year.

01:59:08.360 Now, make one that makes a difference.

01:59:10.740 Keep your family safe and save a buttload of money.

01:59:15.200 If you are somebody who is paying for monthly services from, you know, ADT or somebody else,

01:59:21.260 how much are they charging you every month?

01:59:23.440 And how long is that contract?

01:59:24.620 Well, if you're lucky, though, you get the lowest offer available, which is only $27.99, Glenn.

01:59:28.680 Yeah.

01:59:28.860 If you can get that lowest offer available from one of those companies, you should take it right away.

01:59:32.980 Right?

01:59:33.380 Because it's a great deal.

01:59:34.340 Right.

01:59:34.520 It's not actually a great deal.

01:59:35.840 The lowest monitoring price that I know of is Simply Safe, and it's $14.99, and there's no contract.

01:59:43.020 So the way these other companies get you is they wire their thing in.

01:59:47.500 Then if you want to switch after your contract is over, sure, but we can't use that.

01:59:52.880 I mean, we are going to have to put in our system.

01:59:54.920 So you're paying for a system again, over and over and over again, and you're paying these high prices for a system that costs them nothing.

02:00:02.500 When you see the price of Simply Safe system, I warn you, it's going to make you a little angry because you're going to do the math in your head and think,

02:00:11.200 oh, my gosh, I paid for the system that I've been paying $50 a month for years ago.

02:00:18.100 No contracts.

02:00:19.540 You own the system.

02:00:20.800 No games and $14.99 a month.

02:00:23.800 It's Simply Safe.

02:00:37.940 While Senator Menendez is on the beach in Puerto Rico, which is not a good picture if you haven't seen that,

02:00:47.920 along with the Hispanic caucus, things are kind of falling apart because they're saying,

02:00:51.960 oh, it's shut down.

02:00:52.940 It's so horrible for people.

02:00:54.280 And then they're on the beach.

02:00:55.020 There's something else that is also falling apart, and that is that the border wall is immoral.

02:01:00.480 Yeah.

02:01:00.620 Chris Wallace asked Senator Coons, a Democrat, whether the wall was really immoral.

02:01:04.760 Listen.

02:01:05.480 House Speaker Pelosi says that the border wall is immoral and that she won't give,

02:01:12.300 I guess she'll give $1 to pay for it.

02:01:14.740 Do you agree with her?

02:01:15.760 Well, I agree with the advice that Lindsey Graham just gave to President Trump,

02:01:20.640 which is that he should reopen the government and we should spend several weeks negotiating over what we can all agree on.

02:01:28.120 I personally don't think that a border wall is in and of itself immoral.

02:01:32.560 Hmm.

02:01:33.720 Well, walls aren't immoral, right?

02:01:34.960 They're just a thing, right?

02:01:36.080 The Internet isn't immoral.

02:01:37.400 Nazi propaganda on the Internet might be immoral and is immoral in my view.

02:01:41.680 I just want to offend all those white supremacists out there.

02:01:45.020 Right.

02:01:45.320 But, I mean, again, like the wall, like, you know, immigration policy of Trump might be immoral to you,

02:01:51.460 but the wall is not immoral.

02:01:53.080 Correct.

02:01:53.520 The wall is just, it's a way to enforce the law.

02:01:56.160 I would just really like to stop talking about, you know, what we should do is open the government

02:02:00.880 or close the government, whatever, and start a dialogue.

02:02:03.420 You can start a dialogue with this.

02:02:05.060 Yes, a border wall will be part of part of the negotiations.

02:02:10.660 That's that's a stumbling block.

02:02:12.840 Trump can't negotiate with somebody who is saying, no, I'm not going to give you anything that you want.

02:02:20.600 He's saying we can call it a fence.

02:02:21.960 We can call it a wall.

02:02:22.780 But it has to be part of the negotiation.

02:02:25.420 When they say no, you got no place to go.

02:02:28.400 Whether the government stays open or closed.

02:02:30.240 Why would you open it when your only leverage is, no, I'm not going to open this until you say, yeah, okay, we'll make this part of the deal.

02:02:45.460 You're listening to Glenn Beck.
