00:00:00.000 Hello, everybody, and welcome to The Great America Show.
00:00:05.540 It's great to have you with us.
00:00:06.800 Thank you so much for joining us today.
00:00:08.960 It feels like just yesterday, and I say this all the time on the show, that Donald Trump
00:00:12.660 announced he'd be running for re-election for this 2024 cycle.
00:00:16.300 We are now officially one week away.
00:00:19.820 One week from tonight, we will have an idea, hopefully, of who our presidential nominee
00:00:26.460 will be.
00:00:27.940 Hopefully, we don't have a repeat of 2020.
00:00:29.780 We have to wait a few days for the votes to be counted, we'll say, or found, or whatever
00:00:35.320 belief system you want to believe.
00:00:37.540 Hopefully, at the end of tonight, next week, a week from today, we will have a decisive
00:00:42.180 winner.
00:00:42.860 Over the weekend, President Trump was in deep blue New York City, Madison Square Garden,
00:00:48.680 and I was there along with our guest, who's going to be joining us in just a moment here,
00:00:53.200 and it was perhaps one of the most unbelievable things I've ever seen in my life.
00:00:56.920 In fact, let's bring him in right now.
00:00:58.220 He's John McLaughlin.
00:00:59.160 He's President Trump's pollster, leading GOP pollster.
00:01:03.440 John, MSG, I've seasoned Knicks tickets.
00:01:05.560 I go to probably 20 Knicks games a year.
00:01:07.700 I've been to many concerts.
00:01:08.840 I'm sure you have a few years on me.
00:01:10.580 You've probably been to some wilder concerts than I've been to.
00:01:13.200 But nonetheless, John, it was the most unbelievable, and we were there for hours.
00:01:19.620 We had to get in, I think, Secret Service told us by 1230.
00:01:22.600 We didn't leave until 830.
00:01:24.580 Every single speaker, I mean, star-studded speaker.
00:01:27.420 And we didn't leave until 830.
00:01:29.840 And 90% of the people stayed there.
00:01:33.060 I saw some people leaving early, but it was like elderly people, people who had to get out, beat the rush a little bit.
00:01:38.180 Your thoughts, I mean, if you could relate to the audience what took place in Madison Square Garden on Sunday night.
00:01:44.820 Well, that was the mother of all Trump rallies.
00:01:48.720 I've been to Trump rallies before.
00:01:50.320 I've campaigned with them during the primary when they had me flying around Iowa with them in freezing cold weather.
00:01:56.020 And people would wait for him to show up when we were delayed by weather or whatever.
00:02:01.660 Hours.
00:02:02.540 I've seen it where people packed up.
00:02:04.460 Thousands of people would wait five hours for him to be there.
00:02:07.720 Well, and I've been to other rallies where President Trump, you know, I was the one in Nassau County where they had out there where people would wait all day.
00:02:18.420 They'd camp overnight.
00:02:20.520 And, you know, this rally was the mother of all Trump rallies.
00:02:24.620 It was like Willis Reed coming out there for the Knicks to win the championship.
00:02:30.460 And I told President Trump, I said, you know, this is the it's New York is the media capital of the world, not just the United States.
00:02:39.600 And here we are in deep blue New York, where the most famous arena in the world where presidents and champions have have, you know, held court.
00:02:49.340 And and he was there and he's phenomenal.
00:02:52.980 I mean, what's driving the Democrats crazy this week is President Trump is not coming off as a better president than Kamala Harris would ever be.
00:03:01.560 You know, it's been by Biden's understudy for the past four years.
00:03:05.860 He opened up the sale at Madison Square Garden.
00:03:08.900 We're asking people, are you better off today than you were four years ago?
00:03:12.660 And, you know, reminding them how high inflation is.
00:03:16.000 And you want four more years of that with Kamala Harris.
00:03:18.520 Do you want open borders?
00:03:19.660 Tens of millions, illegal immigrants.
00:03:21.660 Do you want rising crime?
00:03:23.560 Do you want endless wars?
00:03:25.340 I mean, he he basically made his case this week.
00:03:29.060 That's critical when most Americans are going to vote in the battleground states.
00:03:33.340 Most Americans will be voting.
00:03:34.960 A lot of them are not waiting for Election Day and they're getting their friends and families out because this is such a historic election and historic choice.
00:03:42.020 But but but that place was rocking full of patriotic Americans, full of people that you you got to see personally how, you know, they had lines of tens of thousands of people waiting to get in in Democratic New York City.
00:03:57.200 And it was a diverse crowd. It was you know, we're not just talking about a country club Republicans.
00:04:02.720 We're talking about working men and women who wanted to see their president because they know what the stakes are in this election.
00:04:09.120 And they want Donald Trump to be president again.
00:04:11.740 And, you know, for us, the polls right now, we've never been in such a good position, but it's close.
00:04:19.920 So, you know, we've got a lesson back from 2012 where, you know, Mitt Romney was ahead in the national polls in the final week and he took it for granted, end up losing to Barack Obama.
00:04:34.560 Yeah. So we can't let that happen.
00:04:37.640 We've got to we've got to finish this out and get all the voters out there.
00:04:40.820 We've got to every day if they have early voting, don't just vote yourself, but get your friends and family out.
00:04:46.900 Get somebody who doesn't usually vote, who, you know, would vote for Donald Trump, get them to the polls, get them to vote early, get their absentee ballot, get it in the air, because we have to have the election, as President Trump says, where our win is too big that they can't rig this.
00:05:03.160 So, yeah, you're absolutely right.
00:05:04.800 You know, it was it was the lines.
00:05:06.560 I mean, wrapped around they're down 34.
00:05:09.020 Anyone who's from New York or been in New York City, probably been a 34th street.
00:05:12.360 I mean, lines 10 feet wide, wrapped down around the corner.
00:05:16.160 And, you know, I walk in.
00:05:17.520 I was with Lou Dobbs, his wife, Debbie, a beautiful, great woman.
00:05:22.000 And I took my father to rally, my best friend.
00:05:24.420 We're walking down the street and I see John McLaughlin.
00:05:27.620 I look at John.
00:05:28.200 I say, oh, maybe I can go in with John or something.
00:05:30.440 And John looks at me and goes, I got to get in this line.
00:05:34.300 So I knew right then and there that there was no playing around, that this thing was the real deal.
00:05:38.900 And we get in this line and John, myself, Luz White, we're all walking down 34th Street.
00:05:44.240 We're trying to find the end of this damn line.
00:05:45.760 And I said, where the hell is it?
00:05:47.420 I immediately get on.
00:05:48.320 I start texting with Trump's assistant.
00:05:49.960 And I'm like, we're never going to get in this damn thing.
00:05:52.640 And we were part of a special people line, which I was scared to imagine what the regular general admission line was because it was unbelievable.
00:06:02.740 I want to tell a quick story.
00:06:04.600 A lady who was sitting is sitting in front of us, an elderly lady. 0.89
00:06:07.480 She was with her husband, you know, tells a story.
00:06:09.340 She's married to her husband for 50 years.
00:06:11.500 They got up and they left a little bit early.
00:06:14.940 And I figured it was just, here's an elderly lady. 1.00
00:06:17.000 You know, they wanted to get out and beat the rush.
00:06:19.400 And one of the people, I guess it was one of her children she was with, looked back and said to us, she said, she's got six months to live.
00:06:27.740 This elderly lady who was sitting in front of us, she has lung cancer. 1.00
00:06:30.780 The only thing she wanted to see before she died was President Trump.
00:06:35.160 And it brought a tear to my eye and sunk my stomach down.
00:06:39.860 Six months to left to live.
00:06:41.120 This is what you cared.
00:06:42.020 And this lady was up. 1.00
00:06:43.000 She was cheering.
00:06:44.140 She was electric and more vibrant than most of the people there who, you know, weren't dying.
00:06:49.640 It was just sad.
00:06:50.380 But that's, John, that's what President Trump brings out in people.
00:06:54.060 These aren't just regular.
00:06:55.740 I mean, they are regular, hardworking Americans, but these people are devoted to MAGA.
00:07:01.600 I think it was Trump Jr. or Eric, I think it was Eric, actually, who said this is a family.
00:07:07.080 And he's absolutely right.
00:07:08.360 The MAGA family is something like I've never seen before.
00:07:12.180 John, you've worked many presidential elections.
00:07:14.800 Have you ever seen the enthusiasm, the family-like aspect that we see in this campaign through this MAGA family?
00:07:22.600 No, it could be because this is truly unique in American history.
00:07:27.020 And it's like when President Trump won in 2016, I did tell him that, which, you know, he was telling me this is a huge election.
00:07:35.200 I said, no, we only won by 78,000 votes out of 139 million.
00:07:38.920 I said, and he said, well, it's a big electoral victory.
00:07:42.360 I said, no, Obama had more.
00:07:43.660 I said, no, I said, but this is historic because you beat the Republican establishment in 2016, and then you beat the Washington establishment.
00:07:54.080 And they've never forgiven us for that because he represents the heartland of America.
00:08:00.060 This is our blue-collar billionaire who's fighting for the working men and women against a system that's rigged against us where they exploit us.
00:08:08.300 They lower our standard of living with inflation.
00:08:10.440 They raise our taxes.
00:08:11.880 They send our children to go fight these endless wars.
00:08:15.160 And, you know, and he's the guy standing up for us and saying, no, it's enough.
00:08:19.660 And, you know, he's building this coalition of working men and women in the heartland of America where they come from the Sun Belt and the Rust Belt.
00:08:28.820 And we're winning record levels in the polls, but we've got to win it at the election of Hispanic voters for Republicans, of African-American voters for Republicans, Jewish voters for Republicans.
00:08:41.360 But we have younger voters now.
00:08:44.540 We have to win the election because so much is at stake for the country, and it really is historic in terms of the levels of support that he has.
00:08:54.640 And, you know, and that's what you're seeing with these people that are coming out from at these rallies.
00:08:59.960 People, you know, they drive RVs, they camp out, they get there overnight.
00:09:06.220 People in New York City were taking the trains and subways from all, you know, all the different boroughs to get in there.
00:09:14.560 And, you know, what you saw was, you know, something that the Democrats can't replicate.
00:09:20.520 I mean, they can fake it where they say Kamala Harris will go to Houston and say, oh, you know, she's got Beyonce there. 0.99
00:09:26.820 And everybody takes her to sing when Beyonce doesn't sing. 0.99
00:09:29.240 They all leave.
00:09:30.000 They all gone up.
00:09:31.060 It's like Kamala Harris can't hold a candle to President Trump.
00:09:35.120 Nobody ever elected her.
00:09:36.360 She didn't win a single primary or caucus.
00:09:39.020 And she was handpicked to, you know, be the candidate of basically the Washington elites when they realized, you know, Joe Biden would lose.
00:09:48.680 Yeah.
00:09:49.140 You know, people came from everywhere.
00:09:52.400 I had a cousin who flew up from Florida.
00:09:53.820 Your brother came in from D.C.
00:09:56.060 People came from everywhere because it was, I mean, it was, John, it was the most unbelievable thing I've ever seen in my life.
00:10:01.580 There were some statistics and numbers that I saw that these people on Twitter, they do this analysis of people who go to Trump rallies and people go to Kamala rallies.
00:10:11.880 I believe there was 100,000 people in the vicinity of Madison Square Garden.
00:10:18.940 Apparently, only 20,000 were allowed in.
00:10:22.300 OK.
00:10:22.700 Right.
00:10:23.140 47 percent of these folks had never been to a rally before.
00:10:27.720 Almost 50 percent of these people never been to a rally before.
00:10:30.420 I mean, the numbers are unbelievable.
00:10:33.400 But, John, you never get the truth reported on it because you have a corrupt, corrupt media.
00:10:38.540 Midway through the rally, the Washington Post is reporting Trump rally.
00:10:43.160 They're on racist tangents against Kamala Harris and this and that.
00:10:47.740 I want to take a quick break here.
00:10:49.200 When we come back, I want to talk about the media and how complicit they've been in causing violence and division in this country.
00:10:55.260 They often say it's Donald Trump who's the violent one.
00:10:58.280 And he's the racist, he's the xenophobe, he's this and that.
00:11:01.260 But he's never shown any sort of trait like that that would exhibit any or exhibit any behavior that would suggest he's that kind of person.
00:11:10.120 So it makes zero sense.
00:11:11.700 I want to take a quick break.
00:11:13.040 Coming back with GOP pollster, Trump pollster, John McLaughlin.
00:11:16.160 Stay with us.
00:11:16.600 Folks, as a lot of you may know, Mike Lindell and MyPillow no longer have the support of their box stores or shopping channels the way they used to.
00:11:24.900 They've been part of this cancel culture, so they want to pass savings directly on to you.
00:11:28.780 So they're bringing back the $25 extravaganza.
00:11:31.740 When Mike started MyPillow, it was just a one problem, one solution company.
00:11:35.040 Well, since then, with the help of his dedicated employees, they now have hundreds of products some of you may not even know about.
00:11:42.400 To get the word out, they're having a $25 extravaganza.

00:12:24.900 We're back.
00:12:25.720 We're talking with leading GOP pollster John McLaughlin.
00:12:28.200 Great friend of President Trump, polls for President Trump, and he does an excellent job at doing so.
00:12:34.740 John, if you weren't at the Trump rally this past Sunday and you were watching, let's say, MSNBC,
00:12:40.480 let's take a listen of how they were covering the rally that we were at.
00:12:43.880 But that jamboree happening right now, you see it there on your screen, in that place, is particularly chilling.
00:12:50.620 Because in 1939, more than 20,000 supporters of a different fascist leader, Adolf Hitler, packed the garden for a so-called pro-America rally.
00:13:02.100 A rally where speakers voiced anti-Semitic rhetoric from a stage draped with Nazi banners.
00:13:07.560 When a Jewish protester rushed the stage, the Associated Press reported, quote,
00:13:13.400 instantly, a dozen or more stormtroopers set upon him, knocking him down and beating him as he held his head in his arms.
00:13:21.180 Most of his clothing was torn from his body.
00:13:24.140 Later, he was booked for disorderly conduct.
00:13:27.380 Now, against that backdrop of history, Donald Trump, the man who has threatened to use the military against opponents he calls enemies from within,
00:13:37.840 who has threatened to use the troops to quell what he says are lawless cities,
00:13:43.400 and to use those troops to carry out mass deportations of immigrants,
00:13:47.880 is once again turning Madison Square Garden into a staging ground for extremism.
00:13:52.740 I mean, I, I, John, that was unbelievable.
00:13:58.320 You know, I didn't see many flags there.
00:14:00.220 The only flags I actually saw there were Israeli flags.
00:14:03.060 Correct me if you saw something different.
00:14:05.000 But the only flags I saw flying anywhere on the, on the, the, the upper levels or in the crowd was Israeli flags.
00:14:11.300 Explain to me what they're talking about, because maybe I fell asleep or something.
00:14:15.020 I didn't think I did.
00:14:16.140 By the way, you couldn't bring in flags because they have poles and stuff like that,
00:14:20.560 and the Secret Service doesn't let you.
00:14:22.020 Finally, they're protecting, they're stepping up and they're protecting Donald Trump.
00:14:25.580 Precisely because of that deranged rhetoric that you just heard from the biased MSNBC people,
00:14:32.920 because what they said, first of all, J.D. Vance put, destroyed Jake Tapper on that quote about using the military against the American people.
00:14:42.300 There is no such quote.
00:14:44.080 The enemy within, he's, he has talked about, you know, we've got terrorists in this country.
00:14:48.720 We've got people that are our enemies of the United States.
00:14:51.180 We have the deep state who, who sought to undermine a presidency.
00:14:54.420 I mean, yeah.
00:14:55.900 And he's a political opponent.
00:14:57.620 Yeah.
00:14:57.840 And you did.
00:14:58.500 And he was talking about, it says in a separate quote, he was talking about using the military to protect the United States,
00:15:04.660 like from riots and the kind of Antifa stuff we went through.
00:15:07.920 You know, he was the one, Trump on January 6th had recommended 10,000 National Guard to protect the Capitol and Schumer and Pelosi told them no.
00:15:17.180 So in those cases, he would use it.
00:15:19.880 But these are, it's just so bizarre because they're losing on, you know, the, in the battleground states, more voters are favorable to Trump than Kamala Harris.
00:15:30.520 More voters approve of the job Trump did as president than Kamala Harris.
00:15:34.200 And what can you do when you're losing your argument has to resort to calling your opponents fascists and Nazis because they're patriotic Americans?
00:15:42.040 I mean, this is racist and racist.
00:15:44.800 I mean, it's like just the need-malling.
00:15:47.020 It has to end.
00:15:48.220 Look what they've done to this country and the division.
00:15:50.800 And we're the ones, when President Trump survived an assassin's bullet by the grace of God, Trump voters didn't riot.
00:15:57.640 They didn't cause any damage.
00:15:59.480 They asked for more Secret Service protection of our candidate because we want to make sure that he can be elected president.
00:16:06.320 He's been the leading candidate for president over the past year, over Joe Biden and, you know, and now Kamala Harris.
00:16:13.740 And what do they do?
00:16:15.840 They, you know, they don't give us enough Secret Service protection.
00:16:19.060 They tried to knock him off the ballot.
00:16:20.920 They tried to put him in jail.
00:16:22.380 They tried to confiscate his wealth.
00:16:24.560 I mean, you know, basically America is looking at this election and saying we have to, we have to get him elected.
00:16:31.260 And you're seeing record turnouts of early voting in not just battleground states, New Jersey.
00:16:37.600 I was talking to President Trump about this.
00:16:39.720 New Jersey, in the first day, the number of Republicans almost equaled the number of Democrats in that state.
00:16:47.860 President Trump said to me, I think we can win New Jersey.
00:16:50.280 And I was like, I hope so.
00:16:51.980 But we've got to win a lot of other states, too.
00:16:54.940 So, but it's there right now.
00:16:58.700 You're watching basically the American people rise up and say we're tired of being exploited.
00:17:04.800 We're tired of being taken advantage of whether, you know, it's not just it's not just our tax dollars instead of living with inflation.
00:17:12.660 They're taking our jobs.
00:17:14.140 Right.
00:17:14.320 You know, he's talking about, again, tariffs on China, tariffs on countries that take our manufacturing jobs in Michigan.
00:17:21.460 We may win Michigan because it's down to a debate about who's going to protect the auto industry and the truck industry that Michigan survives on.
00:17:30.920 That's state's economy.
00:17:32.580 It's not just, you know, the tens of thousands of union worker jobs and the plants that remain there.
00:17:37.960 But it's also the state's economy.
00:17:40.180 Could you imagine Michigan without being the auto and truck capital of the world?
00:17:45.860 I mean, you know, why would you have Ford based there or GM based there if you don't protect their jobs?
00:17:53.520 And Kamala Harris is for the Green New Deal that would mandate electric vehicles that would come from China that would be assembled in Mexico. 0.69
00:18:02.160 And it would just kill our auto industry to have that kind of government mandate. 0.75
00:18:06.460 And that's what it's about.
00:18:08.520 You mentioned Jersey.
00:18:09.680 And I just want to tell the audience a quick story.
00:18:12.000 I have a friend who was working on President Trump's advanced team in 2016.
00:18:16.780 And President Trump had looked at my friend and said, so and so, we're going to win Michigan.
00:18:22.360 And everyone at you probably know this.
00:18:25.440 We're going to win Michigan.
00:18:26.460 And my buddy looked at him and said, yeah, you know, hopefully.
00:18:30.680 And they all looked at each other like, we're not winning Michigan.
00:18:33.600 And President Trump was probably the only person on his team who actually had the belief that they were going to win Michigan.
00:18:40.680 He ultimately wound up winning Michigan.
00:18:41.780 So when you talk about New Jersey, I was talking with Mark Mitchell last week, the pollster for Rasmussen.
00:18:47.240 And we were talking about the governor race with Jack Cittarella against Murphy.
00:18:54.440 This was after COVID.
00:18:55.500 So people were probably a little bit mad at Murphy for all the bad things he did in Jersey.
00:18:58.500 But now, if you put up a candidate, and I tell this all the time, I used to beg Lou to run for that governor's race in New Jersey.
00:19:05.560 I begged him.
00:19:06.200 And he wanted nothing to do with it.
00:19:07.720 He hated politics, hated politicians.
00:19:10.180 And I go, Lou, it's a race you can win.
00:19:12.460 You go move to the governor's mansion, take your horses with.
00:19:14.860 He wanted nothing to do with it.
00:19:16.600 Jack Cittarella, a person nobody had ever heard of before, nobody outside the political realm, knew who the hell this guy was, almost beat Bill Murphy in deep blue New Jersey.
00:19:26.240 So if President Trump thinks he can win New Jersey, I'd maybe give him a little bit of a chance.
00:19:31.700 The guy's been pretty right about something.
00:19:33.620 He was in New York on Sunday, for God's sake, and he thinks he may have a chance of that.
00:19:38.100 You're the pollster here.
00:19:39.580 I don't want to hear your opinion on it because it's probably that he can't win New York.
00:19:43.360 No.
00:19:44.480 I agree that he could win New Jersey against Joe Biden.
00:19:49.180 It was a toss-up, and we were likely to win.
00:19:52.440 But Kamala Harris, you know, they've given us the media, national media has done, you know, since she was handpicked, she's gotten 90% positive press from the mainstream media. 0.95
00:20:02.020 We've gotten 90% negative press in spite of the fact that, you know, he survived an assassin's bullet, et cetera.
00:20:08.840 But the voters in New Jersey appear to be pretty smart.
00:20:12.080 And, you know, the early voting seems to be going our way.
00:20:15.280 We might just produce an upset in New Jersey, but right now, you know, we've got to focus on getting voters out and proving our point.
00:20:26.860 We can't just—
00:20:27.280 You better not be too pessimistic on it, John, because if he does win New Jersey, you know—
00:20:32.100 You'll be the hits pollster.
00:20:34.240 This is the last election President Trump is going to run.
00:20:37.500 He's going to need a job after, so you better be careful.
00:20:39.720 He might decide he wants to come out and be a pollster.
00:20:43.440 Go ahead.
00:20:44.000 Well, by the way, it's like you could see that, you know, I don't know Jack personally, but, you know, he didn't embrace Donald Trump.
00:20:53.220 No.
00:20:53.760 No.
00:20:54.320 And also the Republicans in Washington didn't support him that much.
00:20:59.760 Phil Murphy outspent him by a ton of money.
00:21:02.100 But who knows?
00:21:03.400 Who knows who may enter the race in New Jersey after November 5th?
00:21:07.320 But the key thing is we've got to—until now, until November 5th, we've got to get the votes out and get Donald Trump elected.
00:21:16.020 Yeah.
00:21:16.640 General is definitely a total rhino.
00:21:18.980 There's no doubt about that.
00:21:20.320 You know, it actually makes me think yesterday—on Sunday, rather—out of all the speakers, and I mean, it was a star-studded line.
00:21:27.640 You had everyone from Hulk Hogan to J.D. Vance, Elon Musk—Elon Musk's mom was there, Melania Trump.
00:21:35.360 The only person there who got any sort of boos or any backlash was none other than Mike Johnson.
00:21:41.960 And I heard a lot of people yelling, rhino, rhino, rhino.
00:21:44.860 The voters know what's going on, John.
00:21:46.600 I think some of these politicians think they're a little bit smarter than they are.
00:21:51.020 He was the only one who got any sort of backlash.
00:21:54.120 And it made me sick sitting there behind Mike Johnson watching President Trump talk about policy and Johnson going like this.
00:22:00.880 When I know damn well deep down in my heart and in my head that Mike Johnson's a rhino and he's going to stick to his rhino agenda. 0.87
00:22:09.220 So I'm hoping President Trump puts the pressure on these people to do the right thing.
00:22:13.680 We're going to take one more quick break here.
00:22:15.000 When we return, I want to go into some of these polls, Senate races, congressional races, some final numbers from the presidential race, and one more divide.
00:22:24.360 We obviously have the media divide in this country, and the Republicans have the divide with the rhinos.
00:22:28.540 But it seems that there's a new divide brewing, and it's between the moderate Democrats—yes, I said moderate Democrats because there's not really that many anymore—and the Marxist Dems,
00:22:38.180 and how they're sort of pushing these moderates to the right side.
00:22:41.600 We're going to take this up with John McLaughlin. We're coming right back. Stay with us.
00:22:45.000 Folks, as a lot of you may know, Mike Lindell and MyPillow no longer have the support of their box stores or shopping channels the way they used to.
00:22:52.720 They've been part of this cancel culture, so they want to pass savings directly on to you.
00:22:56.640 So they're bringing back the $25 extravaganza.
00:22:59.580 When Mike started MyPillow, it was just a one-problem-one-solution company.
00:23:02.900 Well, since then, with the help of his dedicated employees, they now have hundreds of products some of you may not even know about.
00:23:10.240 To get the word out, they're having a $25 extravaganza.
00:23:13.680 Two-pack multi-use MyPillows, just $25.
00:23:16.620 MyPillow sandals, $25.
00:23:18.980 Their six-pack towel sets, $25.
00:23:22.120 Four-pack dish towels, you guessed it, $25.
00:23:25.100 This amazing offer won't last long, so order now.
00:23:28.560 Just go to MyPillow.com or call 800-969-3077.
00:23:34.560 That's MyPillow.com.

00:23:50.320 We're back.
00:23:53.640 We're talking about a leading pollster, Trump pollster, John McLaughlin, does an excellent job.
00:23:58.140 John, before we go into some of these polls and where we sit now just a week out to Election Day on all these races, Senate, House, and obviously presidential race,
00:24:06.900 I want to talk about a divide that we see brewing.
00:24:09.300 And it's between the Marxist Dems and the Democrats in their party, just as if the Republicans have the problem with the rhinos and the far-right guys, we'll call them, in the party. 0.62
00:24:20.880 And by far-right, I mean people like Donald Trump, people with good ideologies and people who care about this country.
00:24:27.700 Eric Adams at the rally on Sunday, President Trump praised him and said, you know, thank you to Eric Adams.
00:24:32.760 Because Eric Adams was asked before the rally, you know, do you think Donald Trump's a – what did they ask him, a Nazi or whatever?
00:24:39.180 They asked him to be – whatever the hell he was.
00:24:41.240 Fascist.
00:24:41.800 A fascist.
00:24:42.540 There you go.
00:24:43.520 And Adams says, no, I don't think he's a fascist.
00:24:45.600 And I think it's important that he's allowed to come to New York and voice his opinion.
00:24:50.400 Now, this is Mayor Eric Adams.
00:24:52.300 A lot of people believe he was indicted over speaking out against the Biden regime.
00:24:56.200 Now, you look at Bob Menendez.
00:24:57.920 He came out and the guy's been a criminal his whole life.
00:25:00.260 He's only gotten caught twice, and it happens to be after he came out and did something against his own party.
00:25:06.460 So we have a little bit of a trend here, but you've got now Mayor Eric Adams, and I think we're going to start seeing more Democrats who are going to speak out against their party.
00:25:16.080 Because, John, there's only so far left you can go in this country before you literally push us off a frigging cliff.
00:25:21.700 I mean, do you see what I'm saying that I think we'll be able to bring some of these Democrats more to the center so that we can pass a comprehensive tax bill, that we can pass a border bill and secure this country, that Trump will be able to get things done in this next term?
00:25:39.860 Well, the key is winning the election on November 5th.
00:25:43.340 And President Trump, the great thing about his candidacy is he's a foundation for these other Republicans to stand on, where we have close races for like Anthony D'Esposito, whose district went for 16 points for Joe Biden.
00:25:57.020 And he won election two years ago as Lee Zeldin almost won the governor's race in New York State.
00:26:03.200 And, you know, Hakeem Jeffries is making him a top target.
00:26:07.840 But him, Mike Lawler in New York, Brandon Williams in New York, these Republicans are standing on Donald Trump's ability to do well.
00:26:17.100 Right. But you know what?
00:26:18.980 But they're going to vote with Donald Trump.
00:26:20.600 And the key thing is, if Trump wins the election for the presidency, he will bring a bigger majority to the House.
00:26:27.240 That majority will enable him to get things done.
00:26:29.760 And you're seeing it in the Senate races right now.
00:26:32.360 People are focusing on, you know, you're looking at Donald Trump, you know, without a doubt, is going to win West Virginia.
00:26:37.780 So we're going to Joe Manchin decided to retire.
00:26:40.980 Donald Trump's going to win Montana.
00:26:42.940 So all of a sudden, the Democrats are giving up on Montana.
00:26:45.660 And it looks like we'll have another Republican seat there.
00:26:48.200 You've got close races in Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, where the Democrats are running ads, you know, against.
00:26:56.120 Ohio, too, John.
00:26:57.220 Yeah, Ohio.
00:26:58.640 Right.
00:26:58.900 Bernie Moreno, there's Cher Brown, the Democrat, is running ads like Bob Casey's running in Pennsylvania against McCormick.
00:27:06.760 He's saying, oh, I worked with Donald Trump.
00:27:09.060 Like, heck, they'll lose jobs.
00:27:13.440 We'll lose, you know, the oil and gas jobs in western Pennsylvania.
00:27:17.300 We'll lose manufacturing jobs in these states unless Donald Trump wins the election.
00:27:23.460 Because, you know, Kamala Harris, she'll, you know, her campaign is being funded by these globalists who, you know, the minute they, the minute, if they were, God forbid, win the election, those jobs will be bye-bye. 0.99
00:27:36.340 And you'll be, you know, it'll be Mexico or China or some other place because her donors, that's what they want. 0.98
00:27:43.100 And, you know, you've got Carrie Lake.
00:27:45.800 She's running close in Arizona.
00:27:47.300 She could win in Arizona if Donald Trump or when Donald Trump wins in Arizona.
00:27:52.020 Things are looking good there right now.
00:27:53.440 So, it's a critical election that's going through November 5th that we have to have enough of a vote that they can't all of a sudden stop counting the votes and then go to try to manufacture phony votes to say that they've won.
00:28:08.220 So, you know, that's important.
00:28:11.000 I want to go through some of these races, and some of them are shockers. 0.99
00:28:14.980 Let's start with Michigan, for example.
00:28:16.680 Mike Rogers against Lee Slocken.
00:28:18.680 The latest Insider Advantage poll that was put out just yesterday, they actually finished polling yesterday, has it at a statistical tie.
00:28:27.980 This is Michigan.
00:28:29.480 I mean, unbelievable.
00:28:30.640 Mike Rogers.
00:28:31.880 You go further down the list, and the RealClearPolitics on that is Slocken plus 2.9 inside the margin of error.
00:28:39.160 Ohio, RealClearPolitics has it as Sherrod Brown plus 1, again, inside the margin of error.
00:28:47.480 Rasmussen has Bernie Moreno winning that race as of right now.
00:28:52.600 Pennsylvania, you've got Bob Casey and McCormick.
00:28:56.360 Latest Insider Advantage poll finished yesterday, statistical tie.
00:29:01.220 Let's go further down.
00:29:02.480 We've got Wisconsin, Tammy Baldwin, another one that completely, I think, out of left field. 0.99
00:29:09.220 Emerson polling has them at a statistical tie.
00:29:12.280 Another one that I don't think anyone expects the Republicans could possibly do that.
00:29:16.520 You had mentioned Montana.
00:29:17.880 Obviously, Tim Sheehy's pulling way ahead.
00:29:20.520 Nevada, I think, is probably a tough one.
00:29:22.580 I tell everyone on the show, I don't really trust Nevada, and you probably know better than I do.
00:29:26.600 The Democrat polling up plus 9.
00:29:28.980 You had mentioned Cary Lake.
00:29:31.340 Ruben Gallego, as of right now, according to RealClearPolitics, polling up 6 points.
00:29:35.740 So just a little bit outside the margin of error.
00:29:37.860 Rick Scott looks to be holding his seat down in Florida.
00:29:41.000 One that's interesting to me, and to be honest with you, I really don't care one way or another about this seat because I cannot stand the Republican running in this race.
00:29:49.420 He's going to be just another Mitt Romney, and I'm sure you're wondering what state I'm talking about.
00:29:53.380 It's none other than Maryland, which Mitch McConnell decided it would be a good idea to dump $100 million or so into this race for Larry Hogan.
00:30:02.740 Like I said, it's going to be another Mitch McConnell, another Mitt Romney with Mittens leaving office.
00:30:08.720 He needs a successor, and I think it's him.
00:30:11.040 Is that a race that they can win in Maryland?
00:30:14.080 I haven't done any of my own polling in Maryland, so I really can't tell.
00:30:18.500 But in the meantime, a lot of those other races you're talking about, if Donald Trump wins, you could see that the Republican for Senate has a really good chance of winning.
00:30:28.260 And that's what the Democrats are afraid of.
00:30:30.020 So, you know, they're calling Donald Trump names, they're calling us supporters names, we're all fascists.
00:30:35.460 It's just a disgrace.
00:30:37.440 And it's a shame that they got the final week, that's their closing argument, is to raise that kind of level of division and vitriol in the country.
00:30:46.700 But, you know, when you look at Wisconsin, there you've got Eric Hubde in a neck-and-neck race with Tammy Baldwin.
00:30:52.780 She hasn't really represented Wisconsin.
00:30:54.560 And there'll be over 3 million votes, and eight years ago, we won the state by 22,000 votes.
00:31:01.460 Four years ago, we unfortunately lost it by 4,000 votes when there was a lot of, you know, stuff going on with the disabled voters who weren't.
00:31:10.840 Technical errors, John.
00:31:12.820 No, they were permanent.
00:31:14.100 They're on the permanently disabled list, and they're not disabled and getting absentee ballots. 0.96
00:31:18.480 Well, we've got to, a lot of that has ended, and we've got to make sure that we get people out, and we've got to, you know, make sure we have an honest and fair election, that we have enough of the vote out for the Republicans, whether it's, you know, you can have a race like 1980 where Ronald Reagan, when he won, he won 50 to 43 over Jimmy Carter.
00:31:38.740 But he brought in 55 senators with him for the Republican column.
00:31:43.580 So you need that kind of election where Donald Trump needs to win, and then, you know, whether it's for the Senate or for the House, Republicans can win under him and vote for an agenda that actually protects Americans from these globalists and from the people that exploit the working men and women of the country.
00:32:02.620 So when you were looking at these numbers, John, I mean, your best guess on what happens, we'll start with the House.
00:32:09.640 How many seats do the Republicans pick up?
00:32:11.460 How many do they lose?
00:32:12.880 Is it a dead heat?
00:32:14.540 Well, two years ago, my brother Jim, who's my polling partner in the polling firm, we represented exactly five Republicans who beat Democrat incumbents.
00:32:25.840 They would not have had a majority without those five.
00:32:29.200 A lot of the Republicans thought they'd have a red wave.
00:32:31.740 They were getting caught up in the national popular vote.
00:32:34.820 They missed the district by district level.
00:32:37.400 Our candidates ran on an agenda of hitting the Democrats on high inflation, open borders and unsecure borders, rising crime.
00:32:46.400 And we hit them pretty hard.
00:32:48.440 I don't know.
00:32:48.840 The other, some of these other Republicans, they were supporting a Senate deal to increase spending by trillions.
00:32:54.160 It was ridiculous.
00:32:54.940 It cost us the election for the Senate because if you're going to vote for trillions in new spending like Kamala Harris, you know, those Republicans that did that, you cost us the election.
00:33:07.620 But worse than that, you cost working class Americans their wages.
00:33:12.340 In effect, it's like, okay, we're being paid the same, but inflation is costing us 20 percent or more at the grocery store, at the supermarket, higher gas prices, higher rents.
00:33:24.340 So the Republicans in the last two years have pretty much gone along with Donald Trump and stood their ground voting the right things in the House and also as a minority of the Senate.
00:33:34.940 That will allow them to turn the inflation issue against the Democrats because Kamala Harris, he has the deciding vote for his trillions of dollars in inflationary spending, you know, and the open borders.
00:33:50.340 Remember that bipartisan immigration deal, H.R. 2 or H.R. 1, was it?
00:33:56.380 No, that was H.R. 1.
00:33:58.300 It was the one that Kamala Harris took a bipartisan deal on immigration. 1.00
00:34:02.460 That deal would have allowed 5,000 illegal immigrants in the country every day.
00:34:08.540 Yeah, that was the border bill, yeah.
00:34:09.940 Yep.
00:34:10.620 And that's the one they attacked Donald Trump over, saying, we had a border bill and you didn't support it.
00:34:15.280 You called them and told them to quash it.
00:34:17.280 I mean, you were letting thousands of illegals in a day and then you shut down the border, but that doesn't account for the people who are going to come through anyway.
00:34:25.400 I mean, it literally makes, John, the craziest part about that.
00:34:28.520 They weren't shutting down the border.
00:34:29.760 They were legalizing it and hoping the crazy part about it is that they admitted the fact that they can shut down the border at a certain point.
00:34:38.320 Yeah.
00:34:38.520 And then you say, you're like, wait, why do we need a bill to enforce the laws in this country and shut down the border?
00:34:44.800 And Kamala actually goes out there and admits this.
00:34:48.740 And Donald Trump's the bad guy because he called a few senators and said, kill this damn bill because it's I'm going to be back there in six months and we'll actually get a real bill.
00:34:55.940 They would have put this bill in, John, it would have been for a year or two years, whatever the hell it was undoable.
00:35:01.500 You can do anything about it.
00:35:02.440 President Trump would be two years in office, unable to fix anything.
00:35:05.420 And it would have just been a total mess.
00:35:08.280 So Republicans hold the house.
00:35:10.520 Am I hearing you right?
00:35:12.140 If Trump wins, Republicans hold the house.
00:35:14.300 OK, let's move on to the Senate.
00:35:16.020 But it looks as of right now, they pick up one or two, maybe three.
00:35:22.060 Your thoughts.
00:35:23.480 I think one or two or three unless Trump wins.
00:35:26.500 If Trump wins, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, we have a great shot at those Senate seats.
00:35:31.560 We have a very good shot right now.
00:35:33.520 West Virginia is going to be in our hands.
00:35:35.840 Montana, we could bring in Ohio.
00:35:38.380 You can bring in you can bring in Arizona.
00:35:41.200 You can bring in Nevada, but it all depends upon Donald Trump winning those states in this final weekend going up to and on Election Day.
00:35:49.480 OK, all right.
00:35:50.340 So I'll put the I'll put the Senate race as a slight win, maybe one or two.
00:35:54.980 But it seems you're optimistic, which is which is good news.
00:35:57.780 And I just want to wrap up here with the presidential race, taking a look at, you know, where we're at right now.
00:36:04.940 For the first time, we're seeing President Trump ahead in the real clear politics national average.
00:36:10.100 He's been ahead by a little bit for the most time in the top battleground states.
00:36:15.240 He's almost up a point now, which is the highest I think I've seen since, you know, Kamala entered this race. 0.95
00:36:23.040 Real clear politics with a no toss up map has Trump winning 312 to 226.
00:36:29.360 President Trump wins Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin, along with Nevada, Arizona, Georgia and North Carolina.
00:36:40.100 What's your assessment on that?
00:36:42.660 Because that's a clean sweep, according to them, as it looks right now for those states.
00:36:47.100 Yeah, but when you're talking about a point on the average of those polls, those polls are plus or minus three percent.
00:36:51.960 And those battleground states, it's even bigger than that.
00:36:54.820 Most of them are like plus or minus four or five.
00:36:57.640 So, you know, you got a choice.
00:36:59.800 You can either keep working hard and rack up the votes by bringing your friends and family out to vote for Donald Trump, or you can become Mitt Romney, where you start cutting the pie before it's cooked.
00:37:10.760 And all of a sudden, you know, the big media and big tech deliver a win for Barack Obama.
00:37:16.940 That's what happened in 2012.
00:37:18.080 Well, you know, Donald Trump is not Mitt Romney, and we are going to work really hard.
00:37:24.940 Donald Trump is out there in the battleground states every day.
00:37:27.580 He's even going into another state that the Democrats think that they have locked up right before the election in Virginia.
00:37:32.920 He's holding a rally in Salem.
00:37:35.160 But we've got to get our message out.
00:37:36.920 You've got to use the Internet.
00:37:38.400 You've got to use X.
00:37:39.300 Thank God Elon Musk has X so they can't censor us again like they did four years ago.
00:37:43.500 We've got to tell our friends on Facebook, tell our friends on Instagram.
00:37:48.160 You've got to tell them they have to get out and vote and leave no voter unturned in this election because, you know, we're ahead going into the weekend, but you want to be ahead on election day.
00:38:04.040 And when they close the polls, we want to count votes where we're ahead.
00:38:06.900 So it's like I said, it's a historic election, and it's one that we can't take anything for granted because, you know, Kamala Harris getting elected will be a disaster for the next four years, and we can't let that happen.
00:38:21.840 You know, John, my background is actually in politics.
00:38:23.900 I've ran political campaigns before, and I've never seen the Republicans going into election day this strong.
00:38:30.360 And, you know, usually I'm not too confident watching the Republicans because of the early voting.
00:38:34.680 Now, I can't stand early voting.
00:38:36.240 I wish it was gone and we'd get rid of it.
00:38:38.220 But as I tell everyone on the show, John, you've got to beat them at their own game.
00:38:42.700 States like Nevada, you have to ballot harvest because it's legal.
00:38:45.180 It's what they do.
00:38:45.880 You have to beat them.
00:38:47.060 I tell everyone, Dr. Oz went into election day down, I think, nearly a million votes to a Neanderthal.
00:38:52.220 There's no coming out of that, John.
00:38:55.000 Guys like Scott Pressler have done God's work in Pennsylvania.
00:38:59.020 Elon Musk, it blows my mind to think Elon Musk, the world's smartest and richest man,
00:39:04.740 is out campaigning in Pennsylvania.
00:39:07.360 I've never seen the Republican Party this strong, John.
00:39:10.060 And I mean, I hope it reflects at the polls.
00:39:12.420 But these early voting numbers, it's like uncheatable, knock on wood, where we're at.
00:39:18.460 I want to conclude with this.
00:39:20.800 Just to let the audience know how bad the Democrats have done and how the voters are letting them know.
00:39:26.380 These are numbers of 2020 versus now, a spread.
00:39:30.700 In 2020, the Dems are polling in top battleground states, plus 3.8.
00:39:35.020 Republicans are now polling at a point, plus 0.9, almost a point.
00:39:39.200 The spread is Trump, plus 4.7, 2020 to 2024.
00:39:43.180 OK?
00:39:43.960 Real clear politics, national average.
00:39:46.000 In 2020, the Dems are polling at plus 7.8.
00:39:49.800 Right now, the Republicans are polling at plus 0.1, a 7.9 spread from 2020.
00:39:54.480 These are massive numbers, John.
00:39:57.220 Here's perhaps the craziest one.
00:40:01.120 Favorability rating.
00:40:03.040 In 2020, it was Dems plus 19.6.
00:40:06.200 2024, four years later, John, Dems plus 2.6.
00:40:09.800 That's a spread of Trump, plus 17.
00:40:13.460 The Democrats have managed to disenfranchise their voters, John, and alienate them to levels I've never seen before.
00:40:20.520 I've worked for a lot of politicians, John, and they've always told me you take one side on one issue and you stay with it because you're always going to piss off 50%.
00:40:28.720 John, the Democrats have managed to piss off like 75% or 80%, whether it be Gaza and Israel.
00:40:35.180 Trump said it at the debate.
00:40:36.840 The Jews hate you.
00:40:37.940 The Palestinians hate you.
00:40:39.500 How the hell do you manage?
00:40:41.080 And they're on the Palestinian side.
00:40:42.660 How do you manage to get yourself stuck in such a pickle?
00:40:46.020 Where are they, as we conclude here, John, where did the Dems go so wrong that they've got the voters to hate them so badly?
00:40:52.540 Failure.
00:40:53.360 I mean, we'll look at Americans hate failure.
00:40:55.640 We don't like the fact that the Democrats, this Democrat party, Biden and Harris, surrendered Afghanistan.
00:41:02.300 Yeah.
00:41:02.780 The one thing you're not supposed to do as commander in chief of the United States is surrender.
00:41:07.440 They did it, and it's caused – you've got Iran now launching missiles at our – strongest ally in the world, Israel.
00:41:17.280 They're launching missiles at Iran.
00:41:19.740 And it wouldn't take – I mean, at Israel from Iran. 0.75
00:41:23.640 It wouldn't take Iran, who's testing nuclear weapons right now, it wouldn't take them much time to get a missile aimed at Americans or military forces. 0.55
00:41:34.380 So, you know, when you think about who you want as commander in chief, who that – whether it's Russia, China, Iran, North Korea, who our enemies would be most fearful of, you know, because if they don't like us or respect us, you want them to realize that they shouldn't do what they're doing.
00:41:52.960 And that's why we need Donald Trump.
00:41:55.060 So, it's – you know, your observations here are exactly right.
00:42:00.220 But those polls, we may be on the good side of things, and we may be grinding up, but we are not – we have not won this race yet.
00:42:08.700 Of course not.
00:42:09.220 And we have to get people out to vote.
00:42:10.980 Yep.
00:42:11.820 Donald Trump said it on Sunday night.
00:42:14.040 Go into this race as we're down one point.
00:42:16.380 I say we go into this race like we're down seven, but we're down eight points on the fourth quarter of a game.
00:42:21.220 We've got to hit the touchdown, and we've got to get the two-point conversion, because that's what it is.
00:42:24.240 The bottom of the ninth inning, we're down by four.
00:42:26.940 Base is loaded, two outs.
00:42:28.320 You know, you've got to treat this thing like, you know, it's no joke.
00:42:32.200 And I think a lot of these Democrats, John, are starting to wake up and realize, I was reading the Wall Street Journal and Breitbart this morning,
00:42:38.840 and they're saying that Democrats are planning for unrest in the streets if Trump wins, which means it's not just regular people doing this.
00:42:45.000 It's obviously Antifa and these professional organizations.
00:42:47.680 But, John, the voters have woken up.
00:42:50.080 Donald Trump went on Joe Rogan on Friday night.
00:42:52.340 I think the episode has close to 40 million views.
00:42:56.780 Joe Rogan averages about 12, 11 to 12 million downloads or views per podcast episode, which is unheard of to begin with.
00:43:04.760 Donald Trump nears 40 million, John.
00:43:07.200 The people are awake.
00:43:08.520 They're not woke.
00:43:09.620 They're awake.
00:43:10.280 And I think they realize what's going on.
00:43:12.680 John, thanks for all you do for this great country and for Republicans and trying to make this place great again,
00:43:18.180 because it was once great, and I think on November 5th or 6th, 7th, 8th, or November 20th, whenever they finish counting the votes.
00:43:26.480 We're going to have a great country once again.
00:43:28.580 What do you think?
00:43:29.760 Well, by the way, first of all, John, I got to thank you for carrying on Lou Dobbs' legacy here,
00:43:34.560 especially during this important election, because he was a special journalist, a good friend of President Trump,
00:43:41.200 and you've turned out to be his most valuable disciple here.
00:43:48.700 So the best to you and Debbie, and let's go win this election, and let's do it for Lou. 0.95
00:43:54.040 John, when we started this show, Lou had one thought in mind, and that just gave me the chills,
00:43:58.420 because I think about Lou every single day before I go to bed when I wake up in the morning.
00:44:03.520 When I woke up in the morning when Lou was alive, I'd have a phone call waking me up in the morning
00:44:07.800 and telling me to get the hell out of bed. 0.80
00:44:09.660 Right.
00:44:10.040 And every night before I went to bed, Lou and I, we'd probably speak on average five, six hours a day on the phone.
00:44:18.140 And when we worked together at Fox, I'd be in his office probably three, four hours a day
00:44:22.400 talking about everything from the stock market to sports.
00:44:25.360 So there's nobody who misses him more than Debbie.
00:44:27.520 It's probably me, because he was like a brother to me.
00:44:30.700 So I appreciate that, John.
00:44:32.000 And we have to do this for Lou.
00:44:34.480 You know, we started this show for this reason.
00:44:37.740 I had no choice but to carry it on in his honor, because I love him, and I miss him every single day.
00:44:43.800 So, John, thanks so much for joining us today.
00:44:46.180 I appreciate you, brother.
00:44:47.540 Thank you.
00:44:48.480 Thanks to John McLaughlin, great pollster, great American, and a great friend of this show.
00:44:53.300 I got to see John over the weekend at the Trump rally.
00:44:55.860 I spent a lot of time with him and his brother, Jim, talking about, you know, a lot of these issues that we face in this country each and every single day.
00:45:02.580 And John works it.
00:45:04.460 John lives it.
00:45:05.100 And he genuinely believes, you know, we're going to fix everything when we go to these polls on November 5th, one week from today.
00:45:12.400 Folks, it is the most important election of our lifetime.
00:45:15.460 And as I said, we have to go down into this election, like we're down eight points, fourth quarter.
00:45:20.100 We've got the ball with less than a minute to go.
00:45:22.380 No timeouts, down by eight.
00:45:24.140 We've got to hit the touchdown.
00:45:25.820 We've got to kick the, rather kick. 0.82
00:45:28.240 We've got to get the two-point conversion.
00:45:29.740 We've got to tie this thing up and ultimately push through and win this damn thing.
00:45:33.900 And because America relies on it, our future relies on it, our children's future relies on it, national security, everything relies on what happens next Tuesday.
00:45:44.420 And if Donald Trump doesn't win, you know, I fear bad things are going to happen in this country and around the world.
00:45:51.020 Because if you look at what has happened under Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, whether it be the Afghan withdrawal, whether it be Gaza, the war in Gaza, whether it be Russia and Ukraine, a weak U.S. president around the world is no good because people think they can do whatever they want and they get away with whatever they want.
00:46:08.100 And they're absolutely right because you look at what these people have gotten away with under this regime.
00:46:12.800 So November 5th, folks, I mean, everybody you can possibly fit in your car, pick up and drive and go, get to the voting booths, folks.
00:46:23.460 Get them to vote for every one person.
00:46:26.600 Take five with you.
00:46:28.020 Our lives depend on it.
00:46:29.400 And I'm not being, you know, hyperbolic about it.
00:46:32.340 This is the truth.
00:46:33.380 Our life really does depend on it.
00:46:35.340 Thank you all for being with us today.
00:46:36.880 We appreciate you joining us.
00:46:38.540 And as John said, continue on Lou's Legacy.
00:46:41.020 We do the show every day and lose honor.
00:46:43.800 I miss him and I love him.
00:46:45.220 And I can't wait to be back with him reunited one day to finish our conversation that we left off on.
00:46:53.180 We'll see you guys right back here tomorrow for The Great America Show, where our quest for truth, justice and the American way continues.
00:46:59.320 Be sure to follow me on Twitter at John Fawcett NY.
00:47:01.940 And we're now on Instagram at The Great America Show.
00:47:05.040 Be sure to follow us there as well.
00:47:06.920 We'll see you right back here tomorrow for The Great America Show.
00:47:09.100 May God bless you and God bless America.
00:47:11.600 And may God bless the great, great, great Lou Dobbs.
00:47:14.920 I love you, brother.
