As we sit here tonight, folks, big numbers and high stakes are riding on the ballot. Who s going to win the midterms? a Democratic tsunami or a Republican wave or a red wave?
00:10:03.920Oklahoma, Nebraska, Idaho, South Dakota, Arkansas, North Carolina, and Alabama.
00:10:13.020The only one that I can possibly see being a little wishy-washy is North Carolina.
00:10:19.280So the Republicans are in good shape there, as you heard Susie Wiles intimate, letting us know that Trump will be out on the campaign trail.
00:10:30.240Now, like we said, there is headwinds.
00:10:35.340We're not going to sit here and lie to you that they're not.
00:10:39.300Some of President Trump's poll numbers.
00:10:41.240Now, it's from polls that have been friendly to President Trump in the past.
00:10:45.540And, of course, his same typical polls that put out their propaganda.
00:10:49.560Now, luckily, luckily, for the last 10 years, generally, polls have been wrong for the most part.
00:11:01.060But you've got guys like Morning Consult, who have been pretty favorable to President Trump, had them at a 43% approval rating.
00:11:08.180Reuters Ipsos at 38%, Economist YouGov at a 43%, Rasmussen at a 48%, Qantas Insights at a 43%.
00:11:16.580Qantas, by the way, was up there where Rasmussen is the most accurate pollsters for this past election.
00:11:24.280Associated Press at 36%, RMG Research 47%, NBC News Decision Dex 39%.
00:13:49.980She reportedly, last night after we wrapped up the show, along with other Team Trump members, hosted a Capitol Hill midterm strategy session with nearly 100 power players.
00:14:05.680The number one issue for the Republicans, what they've decided will be the economy.
00:14:10.900I think that's probably a very, very good one because they've got the border under control.
00:14:16.440So they're going to take up housing affordability, health insurance, transparency data, lowering drugs costs, tax cuts, and banning stock trading for Congress.
00:14:32.240Mark Halpern and pollster Tony Fabrizio recommended focusing on podcasting and social media, which they say won President Trump this last election.
00:14:40.400They say that Trump will be returning to his own instinct-driven 2024-style blitz, while everyone else needs to stay on message driven by the data.
00:14:51.680It's time to win to keep the House and the Senate and pick up some gubernatorial seats, because those are just as important, which people overlook those a lot.
00:15:01.940But those are just as important, folks.
00:15:04.740Because you get a bad governor of a state, and it's on.
00:15:07.620I mean, you look what they did in Georgia.
00:15:09.040Someone in the comments just wrote – there's a lot of comments, sorry – the largest headwinds will be the election fraud.
00:15:17.380We need to verify voter IDs and election integrity at the polls.
00:15:41.380So when you have a governor like that, that could ruin the state's election, which it did for President Trump.
00:15:48.820Wound up losing the state of Georgia, and I say losing in air quotes, because it was really stolen in Georgia.
00:15:54.520So these governor races, folks, are just as important as the Senate and as the House.
00:16:08.380Now, also at that press conference earlier today, President Trump touting his economic numbers that more Americans are working today than ever before.
00:16:16.620And the black community has some pretty damn good numbers, too.
00:22:40.200Speaking of pathetic people, Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is not taking coverage on her epic debacle in Germany that we brought you last night.
00:23:20.360This is such a, uh, you know, I think that's an, um, for about 20 seconds, never, of course, giving an answer to the question.
00:23:30.580Now, in addition to that, AOC also incorrectly stated that Venezuela was below the equator and called Secretary of State Marco Rubio a racist for saying cowboys come from Spain.
00:23:45.160Now, last night, AOC called the New York Times and vented her fury over the coverage of her gaffs and the questions that she was asked.
00:23:53.480Quote, this reporter came up to me and was like, is Munich the new New Hampshire?
00:24:03.040And I cannot say enough how out of touch and missing the point generally that is.
00:24:09.020AOC whined during the interview with the Times.
00:24:12.160Quote, global democracies are on fire in the world over and the establishment parties are failing and falling to right-wing populist movements.
00:24:24.220She claimed playing for about another 10 minutes about the clips of her, but they're her own words, folks.
00:24:34.200It's not like what BBC did to President Trump, where they chopped up an entire interview and said it was President Trump's words, and it wasn't.
00:24:42.440That got them sued for now a lot of money.
00:24:49.060A senior advisor to President Trump tonight warning that there's a 90% chance of military action against Iran in the coming weeks, stating that, quote, the boss is getting fed up.
00:25:01.360The unnamed advisor told Axios, while some around Trump have warned against or with Iran, kinetic action is likely soon.
00:25:09.440Quote, sources noted that would be likely a joint U.S.-Israeli campaign that is much broader scope, more existential for the regime than the Israeli-led 12-day war that lasted in June, which U.S. eventually joined to take out Iran's underground nuclear facilities.
00:25:31.640Now, Tucker Carlson tweeting out today as he was in Israel to do an interview with Mike Huckabee that he was reportedly detained at the airport.
00:25:39.140He and his executive producer were detained at the airport by the Israeli government, questioned and interrogated before being let go, passports taken.
00:25:49.640And this is while he was there for an interview with U.S. Ambassador Mike Huckabee.
00:25:58.780So, we look forward to more information on that because that's an international incident.
00:26:04.600If a U.S. citizen detained in Israel for journalism, we'll have to wait and see and get some more details on it.
00:26:15.580If you live down in Florida, folks, or you travel down to Florida, we'll be down in Florida this weekend, doing the show out of there.
00:26:22.840The Florida House of Representatives had voted to rename Palm Beach International Airport.
00:26:30.280President Donald J. Trump International Airport.
00:26:33.640The bill, which was HB 919, passed with a strong 81 to 30 vote on Tuesday night, sponsored by Meg, Congresswoman, or rather representative, for the state legislator, Meg Weinberger.
00:26:46.000The legislation would honor President Donald Trump, longtime resident of Palm Beach County and the owner of the iconic Mar-a-Lago estate.
00:26:52.640She says this is the president's hometown.
00:27:00.320Now, the renaming is contingent on approval from the FAA and on an agreement with Trump for the commercial use of his name at no cost to the country.
00:27:09.960Weinberger has said that the Trump family has agreed to completely waive the trademark for the Trump name to rename Palm Beach International Airport.
00:27:20.080I'm going to look forward to going down to Palm Beach a lot more often now just to have to hear some of those deranged, Trump deranged, which you still see them.
00:27:31.780And you can usually tell because they wear the face masks and they wear the little pins to hear those flight attendants and pilots have to say President Donald J. Trump International Airport.
