The Great America Show - The Great America Sunday Show： May 18, 2025

00:00:00.000 hello everybody and welcome to the great america show it's great to have you with us thank you so

00:00:06.920 much for spending part of your night with us tonight some great economic numbers coming out

00:00:11.460 of the uh department of labor this afternoon really terrific despite all the democrats the

00:00:18.640 mainstream media the marxist leftists even the rhinos telling us that donald trump was going 0.72

00:00:23.320 to send this thing into a recession donald trump was going to spiral the economy we're going to

00:00:27.880 spending 145 percent more on cars or anything that's imported we all know that wasn't the truth

00:00:34.280 at least uh those of us here on the great america show but if you tune into fox business larry kudlow

00:00:40.480 was telling you for months that president trump's tariffs we're going to drive inflation through the

00:00:44.800 roof it's nice that we have receipts these days but like i said it's not just the rhinos it's not

00:00:50.400 just the marxists it's not just the mainstream media it's people on the right or they say the 0.55

00:00:55.840 right like i just said larry kudlow so what uh do we have what numbers do we have for april

00:01:01.140 overall consumer prices increased only 2.3 percent from a year earlier not that 100 percent that they

00:01:07.140 told us down from the 2.4 percent uh the previous month also folks the lowest annual increase since

00:01:15.000 february of 2021 inflation also ticking down so what happened they told us this thing was going to go

00:01:23.200 into a recession that we were spiraling the economy was was in the hole tariffs were going to ruin it

00:01:28.200 we had rand paul in the senate telling us uh that he was going to go out against president trump's

00:01:32.660 tariffs none of that was true they made the whole thing up it's truly remarkable but i think a lot of

00:01:40.680 us have smartened up to not believe the fear not believe the fear-mongering of what these people have

00:01:45.840 done uh every aspect this week they're fear-mongering about president trump accepting a uh a 747 jet from

00:01:53.720 qatar you listen to ben shapiro it's the end of the world you can't take it from qatar you can't accept 1.00

00:02:00.000 the gift from qatar you're an anti-semite if you do that truly remarkable how you tie one thing to the 1.00

00:02:06.960 other but that's the world we're living president trump is over in the middle east right now addressing

00:02:12.700 packed houses all stops along the way in his first speech in saudi arabia he took a blowtorch

00:02:19.940 to the neocons of the world to the people who have been trying to push us into war

00:02:24.080 and non-stop have they been doing it take a listen to president trump his first address

00:02:29.040 over in the middle east

00:02:30.500 and it's crucial for the wider world to note this great transformation has not come from

00:02:39.740 western interventionalists or flying people in beautiful planes giving you lectures on how to

00:02:48.600 live and how to govern your own affairs no the gleaming marvels of riad and abu dhabi

00:02:54.920 were not created by the so-called nation builders neocons or liberal non-profits like

00:03:01.240 those who spent trillions and trillions of dollars failing to develop cabal baghdad so many other

00:03:11.100 cities instead the birth of a modern middle east has been brought by the people of the region

00:03:17.760 themselves the people that are right here the people that have lived here all their lives developing

00:03:22.320 your own sovereign countries pursuing your own unique visions and charting your own destinies in

00:03:29.580 your own way it's really incredible what you've done in the end the so-called nation builders

00:03:35.720 wrecked far more nations than they built and the interventionalists were intervening in complex

00:03:43.700 societies that they did not even understand themselves they told you how to do it but they 0.97

00:03:49.160 had no idea how to do it themselves peace prosperity and progress ultimately came not from a radical

00:03:56.580 rejection of your heritage but rather from embracing your national traditions and embracing that same

00:04:03.420 heritage that you love so dearly

00:04:06.540 a speech like that i think deserves a 400 million dollar 747 alone i mean how could anyone not like this

00:04:16.540 guy you've heard recently people going absolutely insane that he wants to make peace in the middle east

00:04:24.520 he wants everyone to be friends there's certain nations who want no part of that and it makes

00:04:30.160 you wonder why uh we'll take we'll save that for another show we've got uh russ tice former senior

00:04:36.620 nsa intel and ls drive us joining us tomorrow on the great america show we'll take that up with him

00:04:40.880 but it really makes you wonder um what drives these people to not want peace and i guess

00:04:46.200 a large portion of it has to probably be money uh the military industrial complex go broke

00:04:52.560 um they go out of business if there's no war really so i guess that's the reason why they're

00:04:58.200 stoking and why they're stoking and the mainstream media of course loves war as well back here at home

00:05:03.300 the republican party's at war with itself as it usually is rhino mike lawler republican republican from

00:05:11.200 new york is vowing to sink president trump's new beautiful big beautiful bill because it doesn't

00:05:16.740 have the salt deduction in it for new york the state and local tax deduction pretty much what that

00:05:21.660 is is it allows new yorkers to deduct up to ten thousand dollars of their state and local taxes such

00:05:28.200 as property taxes so lawyers willing to hold president trump accountable for the tax rates in new york

00:05:35.880 doesn't really make much sense why wouldn't mike lawler be up in albany fighting those people

00:05:41.120 fighting governor hochel she's the one who puts our property taxes in it's not president trump so 0.99

00:05:47.260 you're going to sink a bill for 49 other states 48 of the states because jersey has it as well

00:05:52.420 you're going to sink a bill for 48 other states because your state and it's my state too it's new york but i

00:05:59.900 don't care the american people deserve it what we've gone through the last four years with joe biden so

00:06:05.420 you're going to sink this tax bill because your state has among the highest property taxes and sales

00:06:12.820 tax rates in the country second to california just so you know mike lawler uh rhino who's got to go

00:06:20.060 he's not the only rhino that's got to go tom tillis a rhino that severely needs to go over in the senate

00:06:26.700 side blasting president trump's plans and slash drug prices he calls it the most favored nation policy

00:06:32.740 short-sighted and unsustainable even though uh pharmaceutical and drug prices have been on the

00:06:38.740 uprise for as long as time can tell take a listen to this rhino and committee hearing today 0.99

00:06:45.360 vowing to take a stand against president trump listen to this idiot okay with i'd like to follow 0.98

00:06:50.120 your lead if not then i'm likely to convene it myself so that i can get everybody in the room and 0.99

00:06:54.840 we can have a very transparent discussion and comprehensive discussion about how we fix the

00:07:00.500 value chain and how we ultimately address this problem the most favored nation coming out of

00:07:06.640 the administration all these other things are short-sighted unsustainable measures that are not

00:07:10.980 going to produce the result i do believe all of us on this committee want to achieve it's not the what

00:07:16.460 but we've got a very wide range of differences on the how thank you mr chair now we're we're all sitting

00:07:24.240 here as layman's saying to ourselves why would anybody in america be against drug prices now the

00:07:32.860 pharmaceutical establishment we could spend an hour-long show talking about insurance rates it's

00:07:38.260 the biggest scam in the world insurance you go to the hospital you get an mri on your bill it says

00:07:44.600 eight thousand dollars what they allegedly charge your insurance but your insurance already has a

00:07:48.660 pre-negotiated rate that they're only paying four hundred dollars the whole thing is a game of mass

00:07:53.420 deception the insurance industry the largest lobby industry in this country by the way and i guess

00:07:58.400 you can figure out why the whole thing is a total scam so us sitting here as layman's we ask ourselves

00:08:05.120 why would tom tillis why would any american be against cutting drug prices how can anyone be against that

00:08:13.900 right and what i simply say to you is let's follow the money back in 2020 tom tillis took

00:08:22.620 pharmaceutical money within weeks of co-sponsoring a brand new drug bill

00:08:27.040 senator tillis accepted more than twenty thousand dollars in campaign contributions

00:08:31.320 from pack committees to pharmaceutical companies within two weeks of co-sponsoring a bill related to

00:08:37.140 drug prices in late 2019 tillis was the original co-sponsor of the lower cost more cures act which was

00:08:44.260 introduced in 2019 so you say okay it's only twenty thousand dollars right nothing too crazy

00:08:52.080 let's take a little further look maybe he got more money who knows right let's look together

00:08:56.980 so here and and you folks can can all check this out yourself you don't need to take my word for it

00:09:02.080 opensecrets.org i tell you guys all the time is is the best tool i think in washington dc it lets you

00:09:07.860 find out who's getting money and where they're getting it from so let's take a look at tom tillis

00:09:11.600 from 2017 to 2022 and these are the top 20 industries contributing to him whether it be

00:09:18.660 individual or pack retired people securities and investment republican conservative real estate oh boom

00:09:24.840 lo and behold health professionals 700 we'll call it 797 000 137 900 coming from packs

00:09:35.260 that's just uh health professionals let's go down let's see if maybe we find some more oh we got

00:09:40.980 insurance companies 781 000 396 000 from packs commercial banks will pass that one for oh

00:09:49.200 look at that pharmaceutical and health care products he got 609 000 we'll call it 610 000

00:09:55.460 rounding numbers 325 000 from packs now that's 2017 to 2022 now let's let's take into account real quick

00:10:04.800 this these health professional numbers we've got 797 000 we've got insurance at 781 and we've got

00:10:12.200 pharmaceuticals at 609 okay let's look now in more recent times see if those numbers went up or if they

00:10:18.180 went down because that may be why tom tillis is doing what he's doing health professionals look at that

00:10:25.940 so we're at 797 000 total for the years 2017 to 2022 let's take a look now we're at 905 000 so he's

00:10:35.280 he's stepped it up a little bit insurance companies were at 781 they're now at 862

00:10:41.000 very interesting and pharmaceutical and health care products we were at 609 we're now at 727

00:10:48.160 so if you just follow the money trail folks like i said you don't take my word for it opensecrets.org

00:10:54.940 you guys can get all the information you need to know it's where he's getting his money it's clear

00:11:01.260 that tom tillis is bought by the health industry the the health care industry the man is a total

00:11:07.020 snake in the ground but it's not just this issue that he's on the other side of history about

00:11:11.720 we've got another issue he sank the nomination of ed martin the dc u.s attorney the attorney general

00:11:19.480 the attorney for uh for dc he sunk his nomination because of january sixers now ed martin's been a

00:11:26.820 complete champ about it but telling breitbart news that president trump wanted him to do the job

00:11:31.560 but tom tillis single-handedly blocked it quote i respect the process i was supposed to go through

00:11:37.100 through the senate i was surprised that tom tillis would say publicly that he would block me for any

00:11:41.600 position in the country but dc you know that's what he said i don't understand that when i met

00:11:46.720 with him it was 90 minutes he clearly has a problem with january 6th i mean this guy is a total rhino 0.73

00:11:54.540 you don't hear any backlash from uh from this man on on on uh anything other than that what did he take

00:12:04.560 such issue with this is the problem folks we allow these rhinos to get away with this kind of thing 1.00

00:12:10.400 and they continue to and they continue to they're going to sink the republican party and as i often

00:12:15.140 say on this show there is no republican party anymore the factions inside the republican party

00:12:19.460 is the mago wing and it's the rhino wing and that's it if we allow these people to keep doing 0.98

00:12:25.120 this behavior and keep allowing them to get away with it they will take over the america first party

00:12:30.640 of the republican party the wing of the republican party don't make any mistake about it you just wait and

00:12:36.280 see folks we're supposed to have a great panel on here today we have one half of the great panel

00:12:41.060 one of them called in sick robert kahaley so we're going to reschedule it for next week but we have

00:12:45.640 my good friend joining us in just a moment the great mark mitchell leading pollster for rasmus and

00:12:51.240 reports among the top pollsters in the country in my opinion he's number one out of the top three

00:12:57.680 mark mitchell as always it's a delight robert kahaley couldn't make it this week he's uh dealing

00:13:08.620 with some uh sickness but he'll be with us hopefully next week when we bring this panel back and do it

00:13:14.580 uh i want to start with first tom tillis it's so interesting mark that uh tom tillis was against

00:13:21.600 ed martin for january 6th and now he's against uh trump's pharmaceutical cutting pharmaceutical

00:13:28.460 prices and we go look at the receipts and things just don't seem to add up yeah i mean here's the

00:13:36.500 thing these rhinos are not ready for the new paradigm where twitter is not consuming the the mainstream

00:13:44.060 media narrative like they were in the past and that includes the stuff coming from fox news as you well

00:13:48.900 know because tom tillis could have just done like a nice little hannity set right and then everybody

00:13:54.260 be like oh it's fine look at this clip he talked really tough and blah blah blah and now he's getting

00:13:59.200 ratioed all over twitter people are going to fund his primary and they're coming for him and the trend

00:14:05.480 i'm seeing and stuff that i'm finding is that turns out farmer really hates ed martin because ed martin has

00:14:10.980 been actually advocating trump's pricing plans going all the way back to 2020 so tom tillis can it

00:14:18.800 make a nice little story for himself about january 6th but it turns out if pharma funds tom tillis which

00:14:25.360 you showed it does and pharma hates ed martin then tom tillis is going to hate ed martin too and that's

00:14:31.260 exactly what we're seeing and everybody knows it yeah i mean taking upwards of the first election cycle

00:14:37.300 three to four million the second election cycle five to six million dollars in pharma money and it's

00:14:42.840 the largest lobbying group in the world and you know everyone i think has questioned pharmaceuticals

00:14:48.020 for a very long time and whether it be the simple example i gave you go to a doctor mark you get an

00:14:53.140 x-ray or an mri they tell you it's eight thousand dollars they bill your insurance eight thousand

00:14:57.000 dollars but there was already a pre-negotiated price that they're only paying four hundred dollars and

00:15:00.660 they're only charging you a hundred dollars why not just be honest with the people in the first place 0.97

00:15:04.280 and say this is what it is we're not a bunch of sleazy scumbag liars uh we're honest with you and 0.93

00:15:10.460 uh we're not going to be the largest lobbying group in america anymore like what pharma is a big 0.94

00:15:17.100 big big big business big business like trillion dollar business in the u.s it's got one of the

00:15:22.560 fastest growing um market size rates of any industry it's taking a larger and larger share of all of our

00:15:30.320 expenditures and a lot of it's taxpayer because medicare and and that's like basically the scam in

00:15:36.400 my opinion is that because of regulatory capture what happens is that these pharmaceutical companies

00:15:41.640 essentially just come up with a pitch what's a really great sounding drug and then they'll do a

00:15:46.500 lot of r&d sure they'll spend a lot of money but then they work hand in glove with science and the

00:15:50.960 regulators to selectively judge in my opinion you know whether this drug is effective or not

00:15:57.440 probably sweep a few side effects under the rug they probably spent a lot of time and effort on study

00:16:03.900 design i would suspect and what they get is that a drug that they say is going to cure all the world's

00:16:09.900 ills and all it does is just suck up more taxpayer money and not solve any of the chronic issues we

00:16:15.080 have not only that it's a way of siphoning off the taxpayer donkey because if the stats that rfk was

00:16:21.980 saying about how the u.s pharmaceutical revenue is like 75 percent of from the u.s even though we only

00:16:27.960 have 4.3 percent of the world's populations like that's one more way in which all the middle class 0.98

00:16:33.660 americans who can't put food on that table now they're just being screwed over by the system

00:16:38.220 now if you have a politician that comes and says i'm going to completely right that ship

00:16:42.680 they're going to attack him like half a trillion dollars this could be and every other country on

00:16:48.420 earth is all of a sudden not going to be able to afford these crazy expensive designer drugs this is 0.69

00:16:53.480 a massive paradigm change and like who knows where it's going to go i think you're going to probably

00:16:59.640 see 500 federal judges put out to temporary restraining or like they can't allow this to

00:17:05.700 happen we're talking about thousands and thousands of people being laid off from all the major companies

00:17:11.380 like you don't suspect judge bozberg mark will have a ruling for us right oh yeah sure i'm sure he's got

00:17:16.900 a pharmaceutical company up his uh yeah somebody right it's like there maybe they rotate right

00:17:22.560 we know that happens in the legislature they take turns being the bag men for k street right

00:17:28.200 we saw there were some memes out there mark when uh the new pope was elected uh judge bozberg has

00:17:34.560 ordered that he is not allowed to take uh take over being pope issuing a temporary restraining order and

00:17:40.040 it's only a half joke because it's it's sort of true you know everything you just described right

00:17:45.400 there mark seemingly sounds like the covet 19 vaccine right we were we were promised this thing was

00:17:51.640 going to save lives this we know it didn't save any lives we know it uh now that it may have

00:17:57.440 caused some issues and i'll i'll leave it at that because i don't want uh certain platforms to get

00:18:02.100 upset there's platforms you know i'm going to tell you a quick story on youtube uh back when lou was doing

00:18:10.320 the show uh he had on dr joseph ladapo ladapo the florida surgeon general they they tokened an episode

00:18:17.640 and they gave us a strike on the account as uh medical disinformation so i wrote to youtube i said

00:18:22.920 what was the disinformation no answer they gave a strike and they make you take this course

00:18:27.980 on what's different disinformation and what's not disinformation so i take this course i'm like this

00:18:33.260 is absurd i go back and listen to the episode again and nothing that dr ladapo says

00:18:37.420 was it was disinformation so i text dr ladapo and i said this what is and he says i demand that

00:18:44.080 youtube tell us what it was so two days ago i reach out to youtube the folks at youtube and i say

00:18:49.740 you know i spoke with dr ladapo he's demanding he wants to know what was said that was disinformation

00:18:55.100 and wow i don't hear a word mark i just get a message we've reviewed your content and it's now back

00:19:00.900 published on your page but that's what the and i said the email and i said this sets a very dangerous

00:19:06.620 precedent if you come out here in america i guarantee if joe biden were president or kamala

00:19:10.780 harris were president right now that strike would still be on there how long ago was that strike

00:19:15.080 uh it was set to come off on june 1st but it was from a year ago or six months or a year ago

00:19:20.500 it had to be a lou passed away in july so it was well over a year uh yeah so you know i'm sitting there

00:19:28.240 and i'm like this makes no sense but this is what they did to us mark this is what they did to us

00:19:33.080 all during covid and as you had just intimated people made a lot of money on on a lot of different

00:19:38.800 things and people are gonna lose jobs and if i question one thing it's how did dr fauci as a

00:19:44.800 government employee first of all it's you're not allowed to have another job as a government employee

00:19:48.780 right it you're it's illegal okay uh which is why donald trump did that whole mass layoff thing he

00:19:55.020 said you know there's people who aren't coming to work who are working other jobs and they're working

00:19:57.780 for the government how did dr fauci as a government employee the highest paid government employee

00:20:02.300 make money on things outside of working for the government if you don't question that like what do

00:20:09.000 you question that we had a phrase back in the naval academy you rate what you skate you know

00:20:16.980 do what you you know can get away with and it looks like people are able to get away with a lot

00:20:22.460 and i i'm serious regulatory capture is a really big problem i was asking grok some stuff and i

00:20:30.200 recall it saying that the share of our gdp that gets spent on pharmaceutical drugs increased like

00:20:36.280 4x just in the last 40 50 years so uh and we know that all the health outcomes have gotten absolutely

00:20:42.500 worse and worse and so who knows there's probably a dotted line to like some type of medical tyranny

00:20:49.180 because we came pretty close like if they tried to force experimental mrna vaccines on everybody

00:20:55.260 you know 50 years from now maybe half of the schedule is mrna vaccines and you get um shut off

00:21:01.640 your little account gets shut off if you don't take them or maybe every single person's got to get like

00:21:07.120 issued a cpap a statin and your ozempic when you turn 18 in order to register for the selective

00:21:14.440 service who knows but that's probably what pfizer wants it's probably what nova nordzik wants and it

00:21:21.960 turns out that they get better representation in congress than uh you know joe six pack that's true

00:21:28.480 well for those people now on ozempic they're going to be very happy because the price of it should come

00:21:32.500 down a little bit i don't know if you heard the story trump telling the other day uh about a friend

00:21:37.280 his audit i i think i know exactly who he's talking about and uh i won't say the man's name

00:21:43.480 oh come on oh no i'll just say he owns a very big radio station in new york city and he happens to own

00:21:50.280 a um a very successful uh grocery store okay oh it's not a joke all right but i i've went through the

00:21:59.780 list of new york billionaires and i i've tried to figure it out and i'm like 99 sure that's who it is

00:22:06.680 if it's yeah right because it ain't working we won't hurt anyone's feelings right i could use

00:22:13.600 some myself but um so the thing that's interesting to me is mark is nobody's questioned over the course

00:22:20.020 of the last 10 years the last 20 years how we've gotten to this point right how we've gotten to the

00:22:25.020 point where 26 of our pharmaceuticals are made in europe 18 of our pharmaceuticals are made in india

00:22:30.740 two percent of them are made in canada uh 13 of them made in china uh 13 of them are made elsewhere

00:22:37.280 in the world and just 28 of them are made here in america instead of being mad tom tillis and all

00:22:44.440 the rest of the people john cornyn why are we not questioning who was it who decided to ship our

00:22:51.460 pharmaceuticals overseas the things like most critical to this nation yeah i mean everybody

00:23:00.880 did it both parties the establishment and all the corporations both hands and both feet

00:23:05.440 i would argue too i blame a lot on the democrats because they deserve the blame okay but the

00:23:14.220 republican rhinos have done far as much damage as the democrats have done in this country i i mean

00:23:20.700 something as simple as securing our border you remember george bush he ran on and i was a kid at

00:23:25.040 the time but i remember because my father was very political george bush vowed to secure our border

00:23:30.460 and he sent down their containers those shipping containers mark that they ship overseas old

00:23:37.020 rust containers old rusted bob wire fence filled with tetanus i i i mean this is what securing the

00:23:43.580 border was and everyone you were you were you were a little bit older than me at the time so you

00:23:48.040 probably remember better than me but this is what everyone accepted right everyone accepted the

00:23:51.980 iraq war as normal this was what's supposed to happen in this country right this is all normal 1.00

00:23:57.040 mark this is a secure border and and this war is totally justified in iraq yeah everybody fell for 0.93

00:24:05.260 it well you know the the vote what did like three people vote against the war in iraq yeah and i think

00:24:11.260 it's the institutional trust was a lot higher back then and they've lost it and biden was basically the

00:24:17.020 shove that pushed it over the cliff because i don't think anybody's gonna fall for well let me

00:24:23.140 rephrase that some people fell for some stuff with russia and ukraine i will give them that um

00:24:28.580 but it's i don't think there's putting putting any toothpaste back in this tube the republican party

00:24:34.320 is so transparent and i don't think any of this rhetoric is going to get walked back i mean at this

00:24:39.260 point i basically assume that the decisions every single one of them makes is coming from the big

00:24:45.200 business country club republican lobby the club from growth thing because they've been completely

00:24:50.100 captured how do we get ourselves out of that mark they can prove us wrong you know how they prove us

00:24:57.060 wrong mike johnson john thune could come together this week even and pass a one-page bill that

00:25:04.680 mandates e-verify you pass a federal e-verify mandate and i will say okay you know what maybe

00:25:11.660 big business republicans aren't a thing anymore but they're not going to it's overwhelmingly popular

00:25:17.960 by with everybody including democrats and so there's no reason that people shouldn't get it

00:25:23.040 the system exists it's not like it's really going to cost any money just mandate it yeah well you know

00:25:29.120 what would happen mark is like 99 of the restaurants in new york city would their kitchen staff would be

00:25:33.540 cleared out but that's fine you know i'll get a nanny like right right yeah you know what mark

00:25:39.660 everyone says we need our business we need we need illegals to run our business otherwise we can't 1.00

00:25:45.900 survive we can't make money well how did you do it 20 years ago 25 years ago when illegal immigration

00:25:52.540 was not what it is today right when we didn't have 20 30 maybe million illegals in this country illegal

00:25:58.980 aliens uh how did you do it back then because people are making more money now mark than they've ever

00:26:04.340 made in their life i understand prices are more but if you look at prices from where they are from

00:26:08.820 2000 to 2025 it's nowhere near as as inflationary as it was from 1918 to say 1970 right so people are

00:26:17.940 making more money now how are they able to do it in the in the early 2000s now i'll tell you what it

00:26:23.680 was and you give me your sense on this it's great people want the most amount of money they could

00:26:27.560 possibly make doesn't matter at whose expense yeah yeah no fair enough it's like profits first

00:26:35.520 no aspects of ethics everybody's doing it uh you know capitalism worship listen i like capitalism but

00:26:43.640 there's there needs to be a fundamental aspect of ethics behind it and if there isn't there needs to

00:26:51.080 be forces within the government that look out for the best interests of people and this might be a

00:26:57.780 risque thing to say but for decades we've had a fifth column in our government that's been doing

00:27:04.060 extra just judicial things to undermine our western society right and they do it they attack our own way

00:27:11.760 of living they attack our culture and they've done it and we all have to speculate about for whatever 0.64

00:27:16.380 reasons but why does it seem like such an insane thing that we don't have black ops and psychological

00:27:24.340 warfare trying to make us more cohesive and culturally assimilated why is that such a mind blower and it all

00:27:32.240 comes back to like literally everybody's thrown their integrity and ethics away i'll tell you what and

00:27:38.800 and the argument that makes me so mad too is especially you'll see it in the mainstream media well none

00:27:45.120 these people americans they don't want to do manufacturing jobs and that's the in my opinion

00:27:51.420 that shows such a lack of respect for the intelligence of people in america you know my

00:27:56.800 wife's family the most wealthy person in her family he retired with like a mil and a half in the bank was

00:28:03.040 a blue collar worker owned his house um did a really good job for himself lived happy and comfortably

00:28:08.520 uh yeah he turned wrenches on a gm manufacturing line he had an excellent career he had a union that

00:28:14.920 looked out for him and and i'm not a big union guy but maybe like at some point we need to use them

00:28:21.500 because like government has not been looking out for the people it's been undermining them it's

00:28:25.300 disgusting i i agree with you a hundred percent and i say it on this show all the time mark i have

00:28:30.600 more respect for a blue collar worker who's turning a wrench in a facility who's installing an air 0.92

00:28:35.540 conditioning on a roof who's fixing someone's plumbing system or the light than i do for anybody on wall

00:28:40.220 street because those are the people would let's say and if you think about it mark it's not really

00:28:44.340 much to think about we're not here today without blue collar workers we're not here on this system

00:28:48.860 right here without blue collar workers uh you know there there are some smart tech people who built it

00:28:53.860 together but it's the blue collar people who made it happen we're not driving our cars on the road 1.00

00:28:57.680 right we're not driving on a road period okay you know we're not playing golf on a golf it doesn't

00:29:03.680 matter you're not going to the bathroom the you know the list goes on you're not a blue collar workers

00:29:08.280 are what makes this country okay and it's what makes every single country well you're not blue collar 0.68

00:29:13.100 too just think about the environment back in the 50s and 60s there was like a rush for managers and

00:29:19.080 smart people okay uh labor was there was a shortage of labor people mostly lived in their community

00:29:26.340 there wasn't essentially the equivalent of like tinder for resumes back then and so what happened is

00:29:32.680 it took a while to train these people and so you started at the bottom in a corporation you worked

00:29:38.120 your way to the top they invested in you and you got a pension and you stayed with them their whole

00:29:42.480 career yes now the fact that basically and again it's it goes two ways because a lot of people take

00:29:48.580 a job and they're already looking for a better salary in two years like i know it goes two ways 0.77

00:29:52.640 but every single major corporation essentially treats workers completely expendably and they are

00:30:00.140 are essentially hired only for very specific knowledge or very specific attributes and there's

00:30:06.600 like there's no this idea of caring for people is completely gone and so um in my opinion that

00:30:12.540 needs to be restored but in that environment like think about everybody says well they won't do the

00:30:18.440 manufacturing jobs that's right not at this price but you know what makes the price go up

00:30:24.640 a shortage of people to do the work because the manufacturing comes back and that's really bad if

00:30:31.460 you're a super big billionaire that has a massive distribution network or trucking company or

00:30:37.360 manufacturing company because all of a sudden you're gonna have to pay people what they're worth

00:30:40.780 all of a sudden you're gonna have to invest in people and make them happy so they're not jumping

00:30:45.020 ship after two years it's a complete reversal from the direction that we've been going which is like

00:30:49.540 we we know it's like globo homo it's like all the powers concentrated at the top it's like the c-suite 0.95

00:30:55.720 interfaces with the government interfaces with regulation to maximize rent seeking behavior

00:31:02.260 and it's got to stop yeah you're absolutely right i want to hit on something that you mentioned also

00:31:07.700 uh the kids now today everyone thinks they want to everyone thinks they're going into a company mark

00:31:13.400 is the next ceo right and i mean i you know coming out of college i guess you have that mindset

00:31:18.540 and if you don't have somebody to humble you i can see how you have that i'll never forget mark the

00:31:23.880 first time i went on fox news for lou dobbs to reporting on his show i come back in and i was

00:31:29.240 probably a little arrogant right i was a 25 year old kid who just went on national television i'd

00:31:34.000 never been on television before my my background trade is as an airline pilot so i'm like pretty

00:31:39.600 damn cool right so and i'll never forget man that just as happy as i was to to to be on air that day

00:31:46.780 is lou dobbs stepped on the back of my head and said who the hell do you think you are big shot 0.97

00:31:52.120 and you know if you don't have somebody like that in your life to humble you things could get really

00:31:57.220 out of control and i'm forever grateful that i had that man to to keep me in line and and keep me

00:32:02.700 humble throughout an entire you know process yeah um unions you mentioned unions this is one that's

00:32:09.580 perhaps the most surprising to me i keep mentioning over the last 10 years and the reason i'm using that

00:32:14.880 time frame is from when president trump came into to to the spotlight right this thing that's been so

00:32:20.720 surprising to me is how lackadaisical and how much on the sidelines these unions have been in fact

00:32:27.160 still supporting democrats when they know damn well right and and people will say well it's the union

00:32:33.940 bosses okay well who votes in the union bosses they don't just assume power it's not a dictatorship

00:32:38.620 you vote them in right that's how union works how these union bosses time and time again still support

00:32:45.220 democrats they're taking your jobs they're taking your labor they're driving your labors down and if 0.65

00:32:50.820 you didn't have like deep blue cities like new york to protect the unions doing jobs you would have

00:32:56.040 no work at all yet these people sit on the sidelines they're like yeah it's come on in illegal come take

00:33:01.480 this job underbid it by 50 000 it's yours no problem yeah i'm so conflicted because i love the need for

00:33:09.580 unions as a feedback mechanism to control capitalistic overreach for sure and see and they've had a huge

00:33:17.780 impact and i don't want to blame unions too heavily because everything's not the unions it's it's the

00:33:24.040 upper echelons of the union right well it ultimately comes back to the kleptocracy in that they have

00:33:31.600 literally corrupted every power lever including academia church denominations the papacy like

00:33:39.420 literally everything has been corrupted in a pursuit to maintain power and so of course unions are going

00:33:45.640 to be as well and i don't know how like i really don't know how you reverse that um but like like it's

00:33:52.480 all got to change it's it's been going in the wrong direction and we all know it now and now things are

00:33:57.640 listen i want these jobs to come back i would love to lead a manufacturing organization and

00:34:03.020 probably pays a heck of a lot better than polling right you know um because there's no money in this

00:34:08.060 industry i can tell you that right now and it'll all be better it sounds regressive but progress hasn't

00:34:14.740 worked and so there are things that we have to get back to and we all know it i think what people need

00:34:20.240 to realize mark is that everyone has a purpose on this world right and everyone's voice matters think

00:34:26.360 about how many trump voters went out there in 2016 and said or how many trump voters stood home mark

00:34:32.200 and said my vote doesn't count it's only one okay but the simple game of addition mark of one plus one

00:34:38.460 plus one plus one plus one plus one okay it adds up in numbers and i think a lot of people don't realize

00:34:44.400 that it's not it's all of us that we don't realize you know sometimes i sit here and say i come out here

00:34:49.960 and i do a podcast for a few million people it's only a few million people am i really moving the needle

00:34:54.540 on things am i really doing this and and i'll get calls sometimes from big people that they heard

00:34:59.460 this or that they listened to this or that the president tuned into my show that night and uh

00:35:04.680 and you know it makes you feel like uh what you're doing is worthwhile and it's yes but i feel like

00:35:08.820 there's too many people who have gotten complacent and just said you know like i'm just another person

00:35:13.600 in this country of a few billion people like uh this world of a few billion people do i really matter

00:35:20.480 well i think people are waking up from that and this is a very positive thing you mentioned what

00:35:26.400 it was like back in the 70s 80s 90s back then when they're and how work environment has changed and

00:35:33.680 there's less mentorship and it's not really a mentoring relationship anymore and i would say

00:35:39.080 well in my opinion working in corporate america there aren't a ton of people who i think are good

00:35:42.960 role models either basically i mean everybody's gravitated towards what a global home manager is and

00:35:48.940 it's not necessarily somebody that's going to have the uncomfortable conversations with you

00:35:52.780 it's probably somebody that's going to pass you over because of check boxes because they worship

00:35:58.800 dei or something like that but when i was growing up there were a hell of a lot of unagreeable men 0.97

00:36:05.240 just totally jerks that would like ludops did to you it's like scout leaders male teachers like most 0.99

00:36:14.520 people were not trying to be your friend and even the the women teacher they just acted completely 0.99

00:36:19.300 different there was this idea of like shared cultural values and integrity and like the idea

00:36:25.820 that everybody has a responsibility to like raise children correctly and that's gone that's completely

00:36:31.020 gone part of it is because they've completely undercut masculinity and what i come back to is like we

00:36:37.120 all know that it's been a full spectrum warfare on american culture they've done it through

00:36:42.560 entertainment they've done it through the corporate workplace they've done it through like every brand

00:36:47.640 of politics and now people are really pissed off and there is blowback and and you're starting to see

00:36:52.900 it and like i'll just give you one example and this completely blows my mind we pull a lot on race

00:36:59.440 relations and issues and when i was growing up i don't really remember like we've talked about this

00:37:05.920 before like it was it felt pretty post-racial in my opinion back in the 80s and 90s and maybe i was

00:37:12.360 wrong i don't know um but then it was like super sensitized everybody cared all it was literally

00:37:19.640 permeated everything and now only like 12 percent of people are very concerned that somebody's going

00:37:25.220 to call them a racist now you have like literally as we speak trending on tiktok and you're not going

00:37:30.760 to see it in the mainstream media you're not going to see it on facebook probably not going to see it on

00:37:34.180 twitter either uh black fatigue what is trending massively trending you can see it in the google

00:37:41.780 search volume just in the last week it's going viral right now well people are trying to people

00:37:49.060 are trying to take control of what that means and google will give you the wrong answer there's a very

00:37:55.280 good mark dice video talking about it but this is a lot of african americans writing like posting

00:38:03.320 videos about how they're sick of the way that some of the members in their community behave

00:38:08.340 and it's obviously striking a chord with people if it's going so viral and so and we talked about how

00:38:16.060 like words like apac were trending on twitter yesterday and so all of a sudden conversations

00:38:20.780 are happening that have been bottled up for a really long time and it's going to have public

00:38:24.520 opinion ramifications not really sure how when you repress and censor people and put all this stuff

00:38:30.400 and uh like into dark corners and tell them they're not allowed to discuss it it's like you

00:38:35.040 just you can't do that to humans like they're going to want to explore ideas and now we are and it's the

00:38:42.080 same thing that's happening to the rhinos they can't control the conversation right now i just like i posted

00:38:47.140 a tweet about tom tillis just like 10 minutes ago and it's like ripping right now like everybody's

00:38:52.000 like wow that's great tom tillis is now against the pharma price executive order but he's taking a

00:38:57.600 ton of ton of pharma money on brand like 600 likes in like a half hour it's incredible so uh yeah

00:39:06.840 we were talking about something else and i'm actually going to play this video because

00:39:15.980 you're right there there's come a time we're now we're like there's sort of some sort of intolerance

00:39:21.260 right of what we're allowed to talk about and what you're not allowed to talk about and if you talk

00:39:25.660 about a certain thing you're a racist you're a xenophobe you're a misogynist what you know

00:39:30.220 whatever it is the newest one is is you're now an anti-semite if you decide that you oppose there 0.94

00:39:36.360 being some sort of new war in the middle east uh that involves uh iran and involves america and i'm

00:39:43.300 going to pull this video up here because i think it's important for uh you know for the american people

00:39:48.740 to to have the dialect mark to to be able to have this conversation without having to worry about

00:39:55.340 being cold and anti-semite or without having to to you know worry about any of that stuff here i'm

00:40:00.460 going to roll this video this is a ben shapiro having a total meltdown and a total fit about

00:40:06.300 president trump uh getting that boeing aircraft from qatar the trump administration is now preparing

00:40:12.080 to accept a super luxury boeing 747 8 jumbo jet from the royal family of qatar it is a 400 million

00:40:19.580 dollar gift available for use by president trump as new air force one until shortly before he leaves

00:40:25.380 office at which time according to the deal the plane doesn't stay with the united states government

00:40:29.380 it then moves to the trump presidential library foundation taking sacks of goodies from people

00:40:34.160 who support hamas muslim brotherhood al jazeera all the rest that's not america first like please define

00:40:39.280 america first in a way that says you should take sacks of cash from the qatari royals who are behind 0.95

00:40:44.420 al jazeera it just isn't america first in any conceivable way so back to the original question is this

00:40:50.700 good for president trump is it good for his agenda is it good for draining the swamp and getting things

00:40:54.560 done the answer is no it isn't it isn't if you want president trump to succeed this kind of

00:41:00.700 skeezy stuff needs to stop the trump administration is now preparing to accept a super luxury boeing 747 8

00:41:06.900 jumbo jet i mean it's just totally absurd so what is america first ben shapiro is it is it america

00:41:14.020 starting a war with iran because you want us to because you want us to send american troops i got

00:41:20.040 some news for ben shapiro because i didn't hear him talking about it mark in in 2008 and 2010 in 2012

00:41:26.180 and 2014-16 when literally every single u.s president had arms deals with qatar or saudi arabia i didn't hear

00:41:32.300 him having a problem with it then sending the weapons right there was no issues there now all

00:41:36.560 of a sudden it's an issue because donald trump does not want to go to war with iran that's what the

00:41:42.420 issue is mark and little ben shapiro wants to now hide behind every sort of little thing he could

00:41:48.460 possibly do and tucker carlson called him out for this that that pretty much he's just this massive

00:41:54.140 war hawk who is israel first and not america first what is america first in his eyes mark

00:42:00.780 that's a really good question but what i'll tell you is that it appears to be not in the best

00:42:07.400 interest of their own business because they appear to be shedding people left and right major talents

00:42:13.920 they have apparently had major financial issues they've just lost a ceo and i think it's probably not

00:42:22.780 fair to point a finger directly at the conflict over israel as the primary contributor but it certainly

00:42:30.120 was like candace owens left the daily wire probably over that issue i think it's fair to say and it

00:42:37.380 looking at them it appears that there is a very tight ship in that company where you have to uh have um

00:42:46.020 you have to be lockstep on certain issues and you talk about america first what's america first or

00:42:52.080 not well how about just intellectual intellectual dishonesty like why is everything why is there

00:42:58.140 certain issues where everybody has to be uniform and others there aren't that's anti-western

00:43:05.020 civilization you know what i mean like that's the part that really rubs me it's like we're not allowed

00:43:09.180 to be adults and have a conversation here and again i would dismiss him when i honestly really don't even

00:43:15.900 know what to think about this plane quite frankly i don't like the idea of donald trump flying on it

00:43:20.400 yeah uh i think jack posovic put out a pretty funny tweet how do you even sweep something that big for

00:43:26.920 bugs yeah uh i think that's probably a fair and valid question um maybe trump should make the plane

00:43:34.180 available to his political opponents you know for them to like bernie sanders you know he's flying on a

00:43:40.600 private jet well maybe he could use this it's a step up that would be great i don't know uh but at the

00:43:46.360 end of the day like the idea that we can't talk about stuff that's the tenor of this conversation

00:43:52.900 we're having like that's in the rearview mirror and it's probably not in ben shapiro's personal best

00:43:59.600 interest to again he's manipulating a lot of people he's i think psychologically manipulating a lot of

00:44:05.500 people i don't know enough about the state of cotter and who it's funded or not um but you know this is

00:44:12.300 the president and he's taking this and i don't know if it's good or bad but don't call it not

00:44:17.200 america first what does that have to do with the border what does that have to do with reorganizing

00:44:22.920 our economic systems or reshoring manufacturing or getting fentanyl out of everything right

00:44:28.660 as far as i know donald trump didn't say a heck of a lot about israel on the campaign stump as far as i

00:44:35.880 know yeah well right but but it's got these certain people on the right going great mark levin the

00:44:41.780 other night there was a uh steve wickhoff uh trump special envoy said a quote quote the neocon

00:44:48.400 element believes that war is the only way to resolve things and potus believes that his force of

00:44:53.800 personality the way that he is going to respond to situations can bend people to do things in a way

00:44:59.460 much better i mean that is absolutely amazing mark levin tweets out by the way neocon is pejorative

00:45:07.380 for jew unbelievable i saw that yeah i mean that's what this has come to now mark i mean that yeah

00:45:14.200 it's so weird what was hilarious about that tweet too is that there was a community note

00:45:21.020 yes that said no neocon is not pejorative for jew i have it and it's from miriam webster and neocon is

00:45:29.600 not pejorative for someone jewish now i couldn't find it again i don't know if it got deleted or

00:45:35.240 something again i'm not anti-war i was in the military i'm not anti like trump is also very

00:45:41.000 aggressive when i think the right steps have gone through i think the problem is is being anti

00:45:47.580 absolutism that's the issue here and that's that's the problem with neocons and they out themselves all

00:45:55.380 the time with all this absolutist stuff and the same arguments i was listening to mark levin talk

00:46:01.460 about the uh attack on iran and it was the same stuff the same stuff from 2003 are we gonna let

00:46:10.120 them get a nuclear weapon we have to attack people before they attack us like literally all the same 0.98

00:46:16.060 arguments and it's just not the same world it doesn't work anymore because nobody has i i think

00:46:22.360 people are very good now at spotting inauthenticity and all of the warmongers all of the people that

00:46:28.940 control power are having a tough time with that if i can thank donald trump for one thing he's done

00:46:33.240 among everything that he's done it's for his stance on just being an anti-war president like you said

00:46:39.780 he he's you know he's the he's the perfect example of of uh you know speak softly and carry a big stick

00:46:46.060 the most famous setting because he uses it when he needs to when when it's uh called for and and when

00:46:52.360 it's not called for like you just said going to launch attack on a nation uh because they may or may

00:46:58.280 not be developing nuclear weapons instead of trying to dip them you know what mark if you

00:47:03.900 speak diplomatically first and you try to handle an issue and it doesn't work option two is always

00:47:09.160 on the table and it's that option that these neocons want if you go with option two first

00:47:14.140 the negotiation process is not on the table instead you have world war three which is nuclear war which

00:47:21.740 means i mean pretty much all of us are dead men like what goes through these people minds but if you

00:47:27.680 speak the way i'm speaking you're considered anti-semite i can guarantee everybody on here

00:47:31.760 i am not an anti-semite i love the jews i have a lot of jewish friends and and i love the nation of

00:47:36.640 israel right it's a complete opposite but but by by thinking that way where we don't want war i don't

00:47:42.660 want our children being sent into war you have that connotation put with you yeah and in some ways

00:47:49.300 israel probably benefit from this being resolved the correct way and what it comes down to is listen

00:47:55.620 if you're not invested in trying to see option one work then you're going to wind up in option two

00:48:01.780 and that's what they all appeared to be going through and what donald trump really said well

00:48:06.720 it's like okay it's not option one it's like options one through ten and those don't really

00:48:11.740 work for prior leaders because they quite frankly hated america didn't perceive america to have value

00:48:18.460 worshipped foreign governments weren't willing to ruffle economic feathers in order to see these

00:48:24.620 kinds of deals done and quite frankly we're probably stuck in the same type of paradigm that

00:48:30.220 every previous uh red team blue team leader has been in and donald trump basically broke that wheel

00:48:36.640 man going back and watching speeches from romney is is like traveling in time the way this guy speaks

00:48:43.020 it's just part of the dc lexicon everything is reform this or policy that and trump's like comes in and

00:48:49.700 says no this is how we're going to be we're going to build a wall we're going to like like kill violent 0.95

00:48:55.120 drug dealers we're going to like execute them right you know what i mean and and people say oh he's 0.99

00:49:00.880 appealing to the masses or oh he's grievance no it's literally just like logic and um you know just a 0.88

00:49:08.060 laser focus on um like goals and again like business outsider seem to have worked out for us and uh you know

00:49:18.900 with a popular populist platform yeah and uh you know they're gonna still try and everything i think

00:49:24.440 to take him out but we'll see those days are long gone of the war hawks of the party donald trump has

00:49:30.940 sent them yeah all into extinction hopefully with the rhinos uh folks if you're joining us on rumble or

00:49:36.020 twitter or facebook uh please know we're also on youtube now at the great america show on youtube

00:49:42.400 at the great america show on youtube we're trying to build this channel up to have all avenues

00:49:47.240 with the maximum amount of people flowing to our channel so if you can go ahead and follow us on

00:49:52.540 youtube or join us start joining us on youtube like i said every night 6 p.m eastern time for the great

00:49:57.520 america show at the great america show on youtube i think i got it in there enough right mark at the

00:50:02.700 great america show um i want to turn to i want to turn to what the audience presumably has been waiting

00:50:09.200 for and i've been waiting for to get to you uh last time we spoke we discussed the psyop that was being

00:50:14.420 run by the mainstream media and pollsters all across the border and and i wish we had robert

00:50:19.180 kahaley here with us hopefully we will next week to discuss this as well to get his take on it but

00:50:23.500 yeah um they're lying to us is is what i get from it from reading these polls every single day give us

00:50:31.160 what's going on president trump's approval rating right now and and where it's sitting yeah i want

00:50:36.780 to reframe this discussion and yeah we'll like we'll put the heavy wood chopping about polls off till next

00:50:42.220 time um but here's the takeaway everybody needs to people hear words like methodology or they hear

00:50:49.120 words about accuracy and we're accurate and i think our methodology is sound but what i'm telling you

00:50:55.260 now is that if somebody is framing the conversation that way when they're talking about a mainstream

00:50:59.740 media pollster they're perpetrating a psyop because listen i can understand if they underpolled

00:51:05.420 donald trump in 2016 and i might even understand how they under emphasized his pickup and support in

00:51:11.220 2020 but if they fail again in 2024 uh it's a pattern and the pattern is is they have no intention

00:51:18.600 of showing donald trump in a favorable light and i say they i'm talking about this cadre of mainstream

00:51:24.600 media pollsters new york times abc washington post reuters ipsos you gov economists like all the names

00:51:31.220 fox news is in their cnn and they just underestimate trump support and they do it over and over again

00:51:37.900 and i we've done a lot of analysis and charts i'm not just rasmussen but other good pollsters

00:51:42.580 emerson harvard harris big data poll rmg are all putting out polls that vary completely different and

00:51:49.900 what was really crazy is that two weeks ago on the weekend headed into donald trump's 100 days

00:51:55.800 all of those bad pollsters dumped horrible polling for donald trump right into the weekend news cycle

00:52:03.080 just so stephanopoulos could slobber over himself saying how horrible it was that trump had the worst

00:52:09.100 polling in 80 years and it was fake you could go look at the real clear politics aggregate and you see

00:52:14.580 they dropped a whole bunch of bad polls they're all rolling off now and you can see on the chart

00:52:19.540 the exact day that donald trump's 100 day was and that was the day that had all of this fake polling

00:52:24.720 and so what it comes down to is that donald trump's doing a pretty good job and they hate that and

00:52:30.900 they're trying everything they can to stop it including lying to you about even polling and how

00:52:35.440 it works and donald trump's approval like pretty good today plus six uh 52 to 46 approved to disapprove

00:52:42.680 he's been basically hovering around net approval of about zero to plus one and i think he's going to stay

00:52:49.500 there but here's the headline record polling highest numbers we've ever seen in 20 years in

00:52:55.800 all of rasmussen reports polling donald trump has a 49 right direction today to a 45 wrong track

00:53:03.900 that's net plus four previous record was net plus one a month ago prior to that we had never ever once

00:53:11.140 seen in all of our polling history right direction exceed wrong track i'm hearing from other pollsters

00:53:16.880 that are seeing the same thing too think holly's got really good right direction numbers rich barris

00:53:22.380 does as well and so donald trump is setting records because people like we talked about this trump's

00:53:28.760 platform is more popular than trump is and trump is executing his platform and people are happy and

00:53:34.520 the mainstream media hit has no way to stop it yeah you're absolutely right i want to i want to pull up

00:53:40.040 that uh on the presidential of the approval ratings that we've got running economist you gov how can you

00:53:46.300 explain something to me mark how is i'm going to do math in public real quickly here it looks like

00:53:50.480 about seven points off i mean that's like double to triple in some cases quadruple uh the margin of

00:53:58.320 error for some pollsters no scroll down scroll down you gotta see i'll pull it up uh i mean how how is

00:54:07.760 is it possible that we are this far off on um well i'm plus i'm plus five it says right there

00:54:18.180 uh economist you gov was negative seven but the point is is that the economist you gov poll was

00:54:24.440 negative 11 two weeks ago they were down there with a whole bunch of people new york times was like

00:54:29.780 negative 12 cnn was negative 14 abc news was like negative 12 and so there were like 12 polls that got

00:54:36.680 dumped all at once and they were all like negative 11 12 14 like really bad yeah scroll down even

00:54:42.840 farther uh look at that bump on that chart that is the 100 day mark donald trump they made donald trump

00:54:50.100 underwater seven points by all of the sudden and i took those all the bad pollsters and they were

00:54:55.580 averaging about five points to the left of me all of a sudden on that weekend there were 12 points left

00:55:00.240 to me out of nowhere it was crazy and if you scroll down even farther you could see it on the chart

00:55:05.080 like this is a list of all the polls that have keep going all of the polls that have dropped out of

00:55:11.160 the aggregate are in white and look down in the middle of the page there negative 11 negative 10

00:55:16.820 negative 12 daily mail oh my so it's like a miracle trump had horrible polling for a week

00:55:24.020 in april and now he's doing great again it's like now you know like there's noise in the other

00:55:31.620 polling but when all those players do it all at once it's just fake it's so fake how do they keep

00:55:37.860 getting away with it who hires them to do these polls it's not a matter of competency that's what

00:55:43.440 i'm saying it's what all of these organizations want to point out that's what they want to do not

00:55:49.720 a single mainstream media pollster put out an election battleground map that had kamala harris losing

00:55:55.580 not a single one of them and even statistically you'd expect well maybe one of them sucked bad

00:56:02.140 enough that they were off to the right and erred in putting trump ahead but they wouldn't do it

00:56:06.760 they literally cannot show an anti-establishment candidate winning and now look at what's going

00:56:13.020 on with tillis and pharma all of these organizations take massive amount of pharma funding and it's not

00:56:18.640 just pharma it's like other corporations as well but quite clearly the advertisers have a lot of say

00:56:24.940 as do i think there's a layer of access journalism and the revolving door between campaigns and it

00:56:30.400 happens in the banks too you know equity research analysts often go into finance departments in the

00:56:35.620 big companies and report favorably on each other just because there's a lot of money when all of your

00:56:40.180 interests are aligned the interests of the wealthy and powerful are aligning together in not the best

00:56:48.520 interest of every other american in the country that's the war it's establishment versus anti-establishment

00:56:54.660 and the anti the establishment people are freaking out right now so here we're looking at the right

00:57:00.520 track wrong track i was just like those numbers are fake too not not one not one pollster economist

00:57:06.400 you gov quantis how does quantis insights have them down minus six that's surprising uh big data poll

00:57:13.200 emerson yahoo and news nation news nation has them down i didn't first of all i didn't even know news

00:57:17.860 nation the ball like minus 18 i mean out of these people sleep well that's the thing too is that you

00:57:23.420 don't like the aggregate drifts and what's in there and listen i had right direction underwater two or three

00:57:30.300 points a week ago it moves around right but it's like negative 16 negative 18 negative 14 if you

00:57:37.580 scroll down i'm sure there are some like really bad numbers but yeah like you got negative

00:57:43.520 like 17 negative 21 here we go reuters ipsos reuters ipsos in the same poll i guarantee you that

00:57:52.660 they have on him underwater on the issue of immigration which makes no sense if you go back

00:57:56.920 and look up to the chart you can kind of you can kind of see yeah look the highest right direction in

00:58:03.280 the history of this chart here is going all the way back to the beginning of obama's term

00:58:07.460 and that's because that's when the mainstream media was happiest they gaslit this guy into office they

00:58:14.620 got gaslit an open socialist in the office and everybody was so great and there were all this like

00:58:20.840 new wave progressive like rainbow happiness everybody's a special snowflake culture they loved

00:58:27.840 it and so they put out good right direction polling our polling and listen uh you again we're nailing

00:58:34.540 elections right and our polling shows that people were happiest in order right now then in january

00:58:42.380 2017 and then in february of 2020 those are the three highs the crazy thing is we're really not far

00:58:49.560 off from where obama was right uh 45 it looks like 44 45 right track 46 maybe yeah um donald trump's

00:59:00.360 even with all these polls he's still sitting at around 43 i mean that's still high like the average

00:59:08.940 in our numbers for all of biden's term was i think like 30 31 uh and he spent a lot of the terms

00:59:15.660 in between 25 and 30 so really bad right direction but then also donald trump from a favorability

00:59:21.380 perspective kind of polls like obama in the beginning of obama's first term he had the world's

00:59:26.440 best honeymoon and a lot of it was everybody thought he was just going to ride in on a unicorn

00:59:31.220 and make the great financial crisis go away and it didn't happen obviously but once you scrub those

00:59:37.220 first six months obama approval in our numbers looks very similar to trump approval which is you know like

00:59:44.320 he's gonna stick around roughly net zero and in fact trump actually outperforms obama in approval index

00:59:51.980 and this is getting kind of wonky but that's strong approve minus strong disapprove and even

00:59:58.140 though trump's got a pretty high strong disapprove of roughly about 40 points he also has true believers

01:00:03.460 and so he does about five points better on average than obama was doing his whole term too so it's like

01:00:10.320 they want to paint this guy as the most hated reviled dangerous threats of democracy on earth but it's

01:00:17.440 like it doesn't reflect what america thinks at all and that's why they're losing their credibility

01:00:23.220 yeah but the problem is mark is people are still hiring and they're still somehow making money these

01:00:27.900 people are uh total mass deceptors uh of the universe somehow there's someone out there paying

01:00:35.660 the money i mean it i guess it's something i'll never understand there's certain things we'll never

01:00:40.340 know we'll never understand like the aliens really exist um my question to that is are there

01:00:46.600 other honest pollsters you know there are honest pollsters and we make no money literally like no

01:00:54.260 money 99 of the money in the industry either goes into like ngo 501c3 usa id funded push polling

01:01:02.800 uh or it goes into campaign consulting uh there's a lot of money in that business uh or you know it's

01:01:11.120 it's budget that gets allocated at multi-billion dollar organizations to put out no like listen

01:01:17.240 cbs like it's wild but their numbers got better once trump sued them go figure yeah go figure and so

01:01:27.340 it's so transparent yeah it's it's totally a joke mark mitchell it's always an honor and a pleasure to
