Welcome to The Megyn Kelly Show, live on Sirius XM Channel 111 every weekday at New East.
00:00:12.320
Hey everyone, I'm Megyn Kelly. Welcome to The Megyn Kelly Show and our special coverage of
00:00:16.200
the CNN presidential debate which just concluded. Joining me in just a bit, Dave Rubin will be here,
00:00:21.780
also Eric Bolling, and we will be taking some calls at the end of the program from all of you.
00:00:26.760
But first, we've got Rich Lowry, editor-in-chief of National Review, and Emily Jaschinski,
00:00:31.240
DC correspondent for Unheard. They're going to join me in just a minute. But first,
00:00:35.820
I just want to talk to you directly about what we just saw. In my view, it is over for Joe Biden.
00:00:43.260
His presidential campaign came to an end tonight, whether he knows it or not. There will be meetings
00:00:48.680
tonight, first thing tomorrow, amidst Democratic Party leaders about how to get him off the ticket,
00:00:58.140
how to change in somebody else. There have to be. Already we're seeing some reaction come in
00:01:04.460
from top Democrats who rarely criticize the president, suggesting he needs to have a serious
00:01:10.180
look at this performance tonight and assess for himself whether he can go forward.
00:01:14.080
It, that number will mount. There will be more and more. It was an unmitigated disaster.
00:01:22.020
It was uncomfortable to watch. I sat with my family and friends, and for the first 25 minutes
00:01:30.280
of the debate, we kept grabbing each other's arms. It, it was so jarring. He was so distant,
00:01:37.880
so frail, so hard to comprehend, so unsteady. You honestly didn't know whether he was going to make
00:01:48.300
it through the answer. Nevermind through the debate, much less through a second term.
00:01:55.040
The contrast between Joe Biden and Donald Trump has never been more stark. Trump came out calm,
00:02:02.920
cool, collected, in his own. He looked comfortable. Donald Trump Jr. tweeted out,
00:02:10.700
I think actually the CNN format helped my dad. It helped him stay composed and presidential. I think
00:02:17.100
he's right. The inability for him to interrupt Biden did wind up helping Trump, and he maintained
00:02:24.860
his dignity for the most part. He was in control and strong for the entire time, unlike his opponent.
00:02:33.700
I've never seen anything like that. I've never seen a politician at any level perform
00:02:38.200
like Joe Biden performed tonight. And not only do I have questions about whether he will be his
00:02:45.080
party's nominee, I have questions about whether he could possibly serve out his term. He's the
00:02:50.720
president of the United States right now. That man who couldn't spit out numbers or say trillion or
00:02:57.440
billion correctly and lied at every answer because he seemed confused. How is that our leader?
00:03:05.980
How are the Democrats going to nominate that man? And shame on you, Jill Biden, Jill Biden,
00:03:11.560
for allowing that. I want answers from all these top Democrats who've been telling us how robust he
00:03:17.820
is behind the scenes. That's who I want to hear from most. You lied. Did you not think this moment
00:03:23.300
was going to come that we'd never see this? Why did you agree to put him out on the debate stage
00:03:28.140
when you knew what the truth was and that we would eventually find it out for ourselves?
00:03:34.500
It's a dark day for this country. He's our leader. No one wants to see him embarrassed,
00:03:40.920
but we're embarrassed ourselves tonight. That's our president. And he could very well win a second
00:03:46.860
term if the Democrats continue their lawfare, if the media doesn't do its job,
00:03:52.480
if the Democrats don't do the responsible thing here. I want to get to Rich and Emily
00:03:57.620
with their thoughts. Guys, thank you for joining me. Rich, what'd you think?
00:04:03.720
I don't think it was a great debate. It was painful to watch by the end. The argument over
00:04:07.860
whose golf game is better and who has better handicap. And if the mics hadn't been cut,
00:04:12.820
it probably would have descended into what the first debate in 2020 was like. So I agree with you that
00:04:16.440
helped Trump. But Biden was terrible, like nightmarishly bad. You know, we both had a lot of
00:04:22.280
experience with Roger Ailes, who is a TV genius, if nothing else. And he always said, you know,
00:04:27.260
watch it with with the sound down. And as soon as Trump, sorry, Biden walked out before he said
00:04:32.860
anything, you're like, oh, my gosh, this guy's president of the United States. It looked like
00:04:36.980
he was going to barely make it to the podium. He had this blank and confused look on all the split
00:04:42.440
screens when he wasn't saying anything. And then when he talked, his voice was incredibly frail
00:04:47.600
and weak. They're saying apparently getting out that he had a cold. I don't know,
00:04:51.200
maybe he did have a cold. But if he did, he should have said immediately, oh, excuse my voice. I have
00:04:55.120
a cold. And then there was the the incoherence, you know, not every answer, but a lot of the answers
00:05:01.160
just that they started OK and then they faded into something just a jumble. You know, the beat
00:05:07.820
Medicare. We finally beat Medicare answer towards the beginning was maybe the foremost example of this.
00:05:13.620
So it was a debacle for Joe Biden. I think Trump was, you know, about half the debate was was very good.
00:05:19.080
I think he got overheated at moments and drawn into things he probably shouldn't have.
00:05:23.840
But he had the better night by default, if nothing else. I mean, I didn't think there was any
00:05:29.200
question. Anybody who says Joe Biden won that debate is a dishonest person that you shouldn't
00:05:33.720
be listening to. I do want to play that soundbite before I go to you, Emily, that Rich just referenced.
00:05:39.840
I mean, we have multiple queued up showing Biden's utter confusion. He did not have.
00:05:44.760
The facts. He was confused over very basic facts and it was repeated. Take a listen to this.
00:05:52.480
We have a thousand trillionaires in America, I mean billionaires in America. And what's happening?
00:05:59.500
They're in a situation where they, in fact, pay 8.2 percent in taxes. If they just paid 24 percent,
00:06:06.120
25 percent, either one of those numbers, they've raised five hundred million dollars,
00:06:10.440
billion dollars, I should say, in a 10-year period. We'd be able to wipe out his debt. We'd be able
00:06:15.580
to help make sure that all those things we need to do, child care, elder care, making sure that we
00:06:20.960
continue to strengthen our health care system, making sure that we're able to make every single
00:06:25.920
solitary person eligible for what I've been able to do with the COVID, excuse me, with dealing with
00:06:35.740
everything we have to do with, look, if we finally beat Medicare.
00:06:46.400
Oh, my God. That's it. That's it, Emily. I mean, I just I have I'm looking at my own notes as we as
00:06:55.960
this unfolded. And here's how they read. So rehearsed, so old. Phlegm needs subtitles.
00:07:05.000
What is he saying? So fast, rehearsed, can barely understand. He's done that. And so frail is my other.
00:07:13.780
What what was he saying? He beat Medicare, the trillions, the trillionaires, what he's done with
00:07:28.000
And that was fairly early in the debate. So the vast majority of of everybody who will consume the
00:07:33.660
debate consumed that moment. So people saw that happen live. There's nothing there's no spin in the
00:07:39.240
world. There's no Joe Biden had a cold that can in any way whatsoever change people's opinion of what they
00:07:45.900
saw happen in front of them on that. And, you know, you said when you were in your opening, it sort of gave me
00:07:50.440
chills. It's like a dark day in America. That is exactly how I feel. It's a very sad day to be an American
00:07:55.580
because that is the president of the United States. The first lady is responsible for putting him in this
00:08:00.400
position. There's no question about that. In my mind, the people close to him are responsible for putting him in this
00:08:05.000
position. And on top of that, we're seeing reactions roll in. The New York Times during the debate published
00:08:11.400
a story saying that sources were telling one of their columnists, three Democratic sources telling
00:08:16.980
their columnists that they were just stunned and shocked. We saw Casey Hunt say something similar over
00:08:22.900
at MSNBC. And I'm curious, are they pretending to be surprised? Because people close to Joe Biden who have
00:08:29.280
spent time with Joe Biden have got to have known. I mean, we saw him do a press conference not that
00:08:34.340
long ago where he was telling everybody, you know, Robert Hurd was wrong and he was losing track of his
00:08:38.540
sentences there. But here we are. Fast forward to the debate. In addition to that Medicare answer,
00:08:43.820
his answer on abortion became an answer on immigration. It was it was impossible to follow.
00:08:51.240
He had no train of thought to follow. It was a it was a disaster. I've really never seen anything like it.
00:08:56.240
That was a critical moment. It was terrible. It was another moment where we were all grabbing each
00:09:01.400
other in my house. Like what just happened? The question was about abortion. And he brought
00:09:07.040
Lakin Riley into it without naming her. This nursing student in Georgia who was murdered by an illegal.
00:09:14.200
Here is the moment sought for. I am a person that believes. And frankly, I think it's important to
00:09:21.060
believe in the exception. Some people you have to follow your heart. Some people don't believe in that.
00:09:24.600
But I believe in the exceptions for rape incest and the life of the mother. I think it's very
00:09:30.640
important. Some people don't follow your heart, but you have to get elected also. And because that
00:09:36.120
has to do with other things and a terrible thing what you've done. The idea that states are able
00:09:41.080
to do this is a little like saying we're going to turn civil rights back to the states that each state
00:09:45.840
have a different role. Look, there's so many young women who have been including a young woman who just
00:09:50.760
was murdered and he went to the funeral. And the idea that she was murdered by an immigrant
00:09:58.800
coming in. They talk about that. But here's the deal. There's a lot of young women who are being
00:10:04.280
raped by their in-laws, by their spouses, brothers and sisters. It's just ridiculous.
00:10:12.500
Oh, my God. Guys. Bizarre. I mean, the only word for it is bizarre, right? I mean,
00:10:20.480
what is sometimes he's mumbly and confused and kind of know what he's getting at.
00:10:25.600
Medical. That's a good word. I mean, this is hard.
00:10:30.040
Unrecoverable. Unrecoverable. He cannot go on that. This is that's it. That those are the moments.
00:10:36.400
I don't care. He did improve slightly toward the ends of the 90 minutes. It's irrelevant.
00:10:42.060
He remember at the time we saw him confuse two critical pieces of his legislation. I don't
00:10:47.520
remember the two that he got confused, but he was in the midst of trying to make a point about one
00:10:52.180
and he meandered over and started talking about the other. And we were all like, what did he just do?
00:10:57.380
He juxtaposed the legislation and trying to make his point. It wasn't a one off. He can't keep the
00:11:03.660
facts straight in his own head about something as simple as abortion versus illegal immigration.
00:11:12.200
He had his rehearsed lines. He spent and like a robot, Emily, he got a glitch that wasn't fixable
00:11:20.040
without the handlers. And he spent the last week not being president of the United States, but in Camp
00:11:27.840
David at Camp David doing debate prep and, you know, OK, not being the president of the United States,
00:11:32.120
he's obviously doing both. But it's highly unusual to take an entire week while you're president of
00:11:36.300
the United States, go to Camp David and prep. What's even more unusual, obviously, is then to
00:11:40.920
come out looking like there was no prep in the world that could have prepared you to answer a
00:11:45.580
basic question. My word association with that clip is medical. This is medical for all of the
00:11:50.780
conversation about Donald Trump and the 25th Amendment during his presidency. I mean, that has to
00:11:55.380
be seriously on the table as the American people figure out what is going on with the man who is
00:12:00.480
making nuclear nuclear decisions. There are two hot wars right now, one in Ukraine,
00:12:06.120
one in the Middle East. And this is the man with the power over our military. That is the commander
00:12:13.460
in chief. It's beyond a presidential election. I think what everybody just saw, those clips are
00:12:18.200
going to be so viral. Forget how many people actually have been watched this live. I think
00:12:21.700
the number was pretty high. But Biden's moments there, there's they will be viral. They will live in
00:12:26.660
infamy. They will never, ever, ever escape him. His entire reputation will be tethered to this for
00:12:32.260
the rest of his life. I agree with every word you just said, Rich. I feel like we're in danger
00:12:37.040
tonight. We're the country's now in danger. Yeah. Yeah. But this isn't really news. It just
00:12:44.400
has brought it home more starkly. And it kind of makes you think, what were they thinking? Right.
00:12:48.980
They didn't need to agree to debates. It would have been embarrassing. That's right.
00:12:53.260
I would have said, look, he's running scared. He can't do it. But it'd be better to have people
00:12:57.040
saying you can't do it rather than going out and demonstrating you can't do it. And, you know,
00:13:01.520
nine o'clock at night for this man now, it's like one in the morning. Right. And Emily's point is
00:13:05.860
exactly right. This is after a week of preparation. This isn't like a president of the United States
00:13:10.100
that we've traditionally seen that doesn't do well in the first debate because they're not prepared,
00:13:14.080
you know, and they're not ready for it. And they take it too casually. Right. No,
00:13:17.280
this is a guy who who's who's been doing nothing else, you know, and probably all day today. He was
00:13:24.120
sleeping with cucumber slices over his eyes. And this is the best they could they could get out of
00:13:29.260
him. And, you know, these moments, because they're they're weird, you know, maybe they're
00:13:34.360
they're a little funny, probably more sad, as you put it. But they're weird, you know, so they'll be
00:13:38.840
played over and over again. And they will be the main impression out of the debate. No doubt.
00:13:43.420
We've never seen anything like it. Rick Perry lost his presidential race. He was trying to become
00:13:50.020
the Republican nominee because he said there are three agencies we should eliminate. And he couldn't
00:13:54.600
remember one. That was enough to eliminate him as a candidate for president. This president
00:14:00.560
can't understand the difference between abortion and illegal immigration. What does it even mean
00:14:07.340
he did beat Medicare? That those are just some examples. We have many more
00:14:13.280
of what's leading to the panic at this moment within the Democratic Party. Forget the country.
00:14:20.740
We should all be panicked. But the Democratic Party is at, I think, a 10 right now. This from
00:14:27.020
I mentioned it in reference in passing Nick Kristof of The New York Times. I wish Biden would reflect
00:14:33.440
on this debate performance and then announce his decision to withdraw from this race, throwing
00:14:39.500
the choice of Democratic nominee to the convention. Someone like Gretchen Whitmer or Sherrod Brown or
00:14:45.380
Secretary Raimondo could still jump in and beat Trump. And then there's Joy Reid over at MSNBC. Watch this.
00:14:56.080
I, too, was on the phone throughout much of the debate with Obama, world people, with Democrats,
00:15:05.380
with people who are political operatives, with campaign operatives. My phone really never stopped
00:15:10.480
buzzing throughout. And the universal reaction was somewhere approaching panic. The people who were
00:15:19.660
texting with me were very concerned about President Biden seeming extremely feeble, seeming extremely
00:15:29.340
weak. Yeah, that sounds honest for once from her, Emily. Yeah, it does. But Rich made a really good
00:15:40.320
point just now that it's not necessarily new. And there were people who were reporting on this
00:15:45.820
in different publications, when they were allowed to, who were getting absolutely hammered for trying
00:15:51.680
to tell the American people that there were concerns in private about this. So it's hard for me to listen
00:15:57.020
to Joy Reid say that on air right now, because I just don't believe, I do not believe that if she's on
00:16:04.120
the phone with Obama world during this debate, those same people were not telling her it has been bad
00:16:09.460
all along. They're not able to get away with the lie anymore. And it's really sickening.
00:16:14.360
I don't think Biden actually even has after watching that. I don't think he has the mental
00:16:18.600
capacity to make the decision that Nicholas Kristof is asking him to make. Nicholas Kristof
00:16:23.500
is asking him to reflect on the debate and make a decision. Joe Biden didn't seem to know where he
00:16:28.300
was at certain moments of that debate. He cannot competently make that decision.
00:16:32.720
That's another piece that we haven't even touched on, Rich.
00:16:34.800
Just to pile on this. Yeah, yeah. Go ahead. Go ahead. Go ahead.
00:16:36.620
Yeah. I was just going to say to pile on the point you made earlier that Emily was underlining
00:16:40.960
there. Morning Joe, every morning, practically, they're lying about Joe Biden. He's as sharp as
00:16:46.680
he's ever been. There was a Wall Street Journal article a couple of weeks ago. It wasn't it didn't
00:16:52.720
didn't really, I think, quite bell the cat about Joe Biden's mental state. But it said people are
00:16:57.400
in meetings with them. He doesn't realize what's been agreed to a week ago. And he repeats himself.
00:17:02.300
It wasn't the harshest thing you could could say. And Morning Joe was outraged by this piece,
00:17:07.380
outraged. So so this is a case where they've been hoist by their own propaganda. Right. They should
00:17:13.400
have said they knew this a year ago. They should have said it out loud a year ago. And then you
00:17:17.680
may be forced to Joe Biden's hand. And I think Jill is the right one to focus on. No delegation could
00:17:22.880
have gone to Joe Biden and get him to quit. Jill could have gotten gotten him to quit. And then you
00:17:27.060
could have a primary process in good order. Now they're in an extremely tough position because when
00:17:32.980
you got to convince them to go, if you want them to go, that's the only mechanism that would work
00:17:36.760
as him voluntarily deciding to go. And then that's kind of a mission that he was a failed president
00:17:41.560
and he wasn't up for the job and you lied about it for a couple of years. And then and then who's
00:17:45.940
going to take over is another big question mark. Who's going to take over the nomination? Who's going
00:17:49.540
to take over potentially the presidency? So now they're there because they lied to us and wouldn't
00:17:55.580
recognize the obvious truth. They're in this almost impossible position.
00:17:59.880
Not only is it Kristoff and Joy Reid, here's David Axelrod. There was a sense of shock in response
00:18:11.240
to Biden's performance. That's a quote. There will be a discussion about whether he should continue.
00:18:17.960
End quote. Kate Bedingfield felt who worked for the campaign. It was a really disappointing debate
00:18:24.360
performance from Joe Biden. I don't think there's any other way to slice it. His biggest issue was to
00:18:29.400
prove to the American people that he had the energy, the stamina, and he didn't do that.
00:18:33.720
Now, I realize that's rather mild based on what we saw, but that's from somebody who worked for the
00:18:37.720
guy. This is there's no spinning this away. It wasn't a loss. It was a devastation. What happened
00:18:47.120
out there? This this goes so far beyond anything we have ever seen at a presidential debate, at any
00:18:55.040
debate that I can remember. And I studied these things before all the debates that I do and all
00:19:01.420
of the debates that I cover. We go back through history and we pull our favorite moments and we
00:19:05.540
pull the biggest gaffes and the most, the biggest disasters and the biggest wins. We've never seen
00:19:09.740
anything like this. We were almost facetiously saying, you know, his job is to remain upright for
00:19:16.460
90 minutes. Can he do it? It, it, it, it shouldn't have been facetious, facetious. It was a real
00:19:23.420
question. And even watching him during the debate, you guys, his face looked bizarre. He, he looked
00:19:33.240
confused, disoriented, very elderly. Um, the pallor of his skin, something was odd about his eyes,
00:19:45.560
about the way his mouth hung, everything about him projected unhealthy, unwell, and forgive me,
00:19:53.180
but near crossing over to the other side. I mean, we've all seen it. I don't, I don't say it to be
00:20:00.760
cruel. I, that is what I observed. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I agree. I mean, it was, it made me sad
00:20:09.320
and then it made me angry at the people who had put, um, you know, not only him, there's a human
00:20:14.700
reaction you have. There's something visceral that you just comes out in you when you watch an old
00:20:19.360
man struggling in public like that, forget that he's the president of the United States and put
00:20:23.800
himself in this position, which I think you're going to hear Democrats say is very selfish.
00:20:27.940
Uh, so that's a conversation that will be had and should be had, but just human to human,
00:20:32.440
you feel badly for the other person. And then it made me angry because I realized that there were a lot
00:20:37.020
of people who knew that this man who is in this condition, it is a medical condition, clearly
00:20:42.080
is running the country and is running the free world. And there are troops. This is another one
00:20:47.400
of his worst moments in the debate is when he said that no, no troops are dying under Joe Biden's
00:20:53.080
watch, which downplays, minimizes, erases the deaths of troops that have happened under Joe Biden's
00:20:58.040
watch. But those troops at the end of the day, that is their commander in chief and they deserve so
00:21:02.380
much better. They deserve so much better than that. Yeah. It's a national, it's a national.
00:21:06.560
Let's just play that. Can you please play? Let me play that because that was a, that was a big
00:21:10.280
moment to claim that no troops died under his, on his watch is such an affront to the service
00:21:17.760
personnel who gave their lives in Afghanistan. It's sought to, let's listen to it.
00:21:22.180
Well, Terry, you know, when he was president, there were still killing people in Afghanistan.
00:21:27.160
He didn't do anything about that. When he was president, we were still find ourselves in a
00:21:30.880
position where you had a notion that we were this safe country. The truth is I'm the only president
00:21:38.200
this century that doesn't have any, this, this decade, that don't have any troops dying anywhere
00:21:44.480
in the world like he did. I was getting out of Afghanistan, but we were getting out with dignity,
00:21:49.820
with strength, with power. He got out. It was the most embarrassing day in the history of our
00:21:55.580
country's life. How dare he say that, Rich? Yeah, that's one of these things, right? It's,
00:22:03.380
it's most of his career to say, okay, he's lying, right? Does he know? Does he remember? I mean,
00:22:09.800
I think that's, that's a legitimate question. He's always been kind of a bloviator. You know,
00:22:14.020
he adopted someone else's life story in a speech, what, 1988, but I don't know whether he, he knows,
00:22:20.100
you know, about, about those 13 service member who's, who, who died tragically in the, in the
00:22:24.980
bombing when we were withdrawing from Afghanistan. And I think, you know, most of this, it had nothing
00:22:30.020
to do with Trump. Trump didn't even have to say anything in the entire debate. And just what we're
00:22:33.180
talking about was all just Biden and not even Biden really under pressure from, from Trump, right?
00:22:37.880
Like, it's not like he baited him into saying we're going to beat Medicare, right? Where we beat
00:22:42.540
Medicare is something that Biden came up with himself. I will say on Trump though, his strongest points
00:22:47.040
for one, this one, when he hit the Afghan withdrawal and the sense of American weakness
00:22:51.780
abroad, which very much accorded with what you saw on the stage, because it was hard to believe
00:22:55.600
that that guy's commander and chief, and then just coming back again and again on the border and on
00:23:01.200
immigration. And what Trump says, you know, about some of this stuff is pretty, you know, they're not
00:23:05.620
literally emptying out their prisons. There may be some prisoners, but almost anything he says now
00:23:10.440
has credibility on immigration because opinion has shifted so far right on that issue in reaction
00:23:16.200
to the deliberate failure at the border. We've seen the last three and a half years.
00:23:20.880
By the way, just for the record, 13 service members died in our disastrous withdrawal,
00:23:25.280
withdrawal from Afghanistan on Joe Biden's watch. And we lost another three in Jordan in January.
00:23:31.440
And for him to stand up there with the families undoubtedly watching, saying no one has died on my
00:23:38.740
watch is completely disrespectful. But of course, once again, he did manage to work
00:23:44.300
Beau Biden into the discussion. It's just absolutely disgraceful. And to your point,
00:23:50.340
I don't know whether he doesn't remember, doesn't know. I don't really care. He's unfit.
00:23:57.040
Remember that word all over the papers when Donald Trump was president? He's unfit. And I just want to
00:24:02.560
show you, Rich, because we pulled it when you're talking about Morning Joe after that Wall Street Journal
00:24:07.600
piece, which, as you point out, among all the pieces that have been done, it wasn't it wasn't that bad.
00:24:12.420
You know, there have been worse ones. But there was a big reaction to the Wall Street Journal
00:24:17.100
piece. And this is what we saw on MSNBC. Why didn't they just ask Marjorie Taylor Greene?
00:24:25.920
It's it's really shocking. I've spent time with both of those guys privately. I've spent time
00:24:31.400
with Biden and Trump privately. I've spent time with every House speaker over the past 30 years
00:24:38.420
and Joe Biden. I'm not just it's just not close. Joe Biden is light years ahead of all of them.
00:24:54.860
Yeah. And told self-righteously, right? Like everyone else's is is the liar. And again, if I knew this,
00:25:01.580
if you knew this, if Emily knew this, they knew it. Right. It's not as though it makes no sense.
00:25:06.160
Right. That Biden would go out in public and look confused, but be really with it and pride it.
00:25:10.200
Right. You'd go out of your way to look with it in public if you could, if you're a politician.
00:25:14.320
But he can't. And we've seen that blank look before. You know, the D-Day, the thing with him
00:25:18.840
squatting in the chair was a little exaggerated. But when he got out of the beast, you know, the big
00:25:23.680
SUV style limo he uses, he just looked like that for like 45 seconds. It's not normal. Joe Biden never
00:25:31.240
looked like that before. No other public official ever looks like that. And what we saw tonight was
00:25:36.140
almost 90 minutes of that look. And it's just devastating.
00:25:40.720
Mm hmm. Unfit. Those are the two themes of what I saw tonight. Unfit and complicit. The media allies
00:25:47.860
of his, the top Democrats all over the news trying to tell us how robust he is. If we could just see
00:25:55.580
the Joe Biden, they've seen behind closed doors, they're complicit. And I said this on my show the
00:26:00.100
day we ran that Joe Scarborough clip in response to the Wall Street Journal article. Why did he do it?
00:26:05.840
I'll tell you why. Because he wants to be close to power. It's a theme we've hit many times on this
00:26:12.100
show. We were past the days when journalists were antagonists of people in power, where they were,
00:26:18.480
where they're working class, where they're shoe leather reporters, where they're, they're,
00:26:22.640
they're irascible. They're challenging. They're skeptical about everything that they're told by
00:26:27.740
these highfalutin sources. Now we have the Joe Scarborough's who want to be invited to Camp
00:26:33.620
David, who want to be invited to a state dinner. That's what's more important. That's why he's
00:26:38.920
running cover, because he wants the access to the next president of the United States. It's a complete
00:26:44.140
dereliction. He lied. The MSNBC viewers should know that he lied. And the American public needs to
00:26:51.220
hold together in spirit tonight because our country's in trouble. And I was going to say,
00:26:57.900
I am so curious to hear Morning Joe tomorrow, because if they try to say that they were surprised
00:27:03.540
by this, if they try to say that, everyone should know they are only saying that because they can no
00:27:08.840
longer get away with the lie. That's it. We're going to hear it. We've already heard it. Journalists
00:27:13.620
saying their sources are so surprised. They're doing that because they can't get away with the lie
00:27:17.160
because you all saw it on live television. Or it was it was his cold. OK, his cold. That that's
00:27:22.800
what made him not understand that he was talking about abortion, not immigration. That's what made
00:27:27.800
him meander on that one answer where we don't even know what he's talking about. He killed Medicaid.
00:27:33.480
OK, I mean, it's a lie. And by the way, if he really had a cold, I bet you dollars to donuts,
00:27:39.260
they would have released that before the debate. The Dems would have been all over the place.
00:27:43.000
Yeah, it was a sudden onset cold. The cold started at 915 p.m. when they realized.
00:27:49.660
FYI, he's not feeling well. He's on cold medication. Set the expectations. That's only
00:27:54.780
coming out now. OK, he was examined by the by the doctor and they thought he had covid. He doesn't.
00:27:59.380
OK, I don't I don't buy any of that. Rich and Emily, thank you so much. Great to see you, my friends.

And joining me now, Dave Rubin. He's host of the Rubin Report. Dave, welcome back to the show.
00:29:27.320
Your thoughts on what we just saw. Lordy, lordy, Megan. I don't know that I can do it much better than you
00:29:35.560
did it just now, as I heard the last 10 minutes or so. But the only thing that this was about was Joe Biden's
00:29:42.500
mental acuity or lack thereof. There's nothing else that we need to talk about, actually. We can talk about the
00:29:49.380
lies and the confusion and all of that stuff, you know, the political part of it. But the simple truth was everyone
00:29:56.400
that watched that debate in America was doing the exact same thing, going, holy cow, when is it going
00:30:01.840
to break down? How is he going to break down? How is Jake Tapper or the mics being cut or whatever else
00:30:07.480
going to run cover for him? And we saw them do it a multitude of times. That first moment that was in
00:30:12.760
the first 10 minutes where he really started breaking down and mumbling, that could have ended it all right
00:30:18.000
there. But Tapper saved him. And then, of course, just virtually everything he said was either the reverse
00:30:24.360
of the truth or a confusion or a projection or just it just did not make sense, which Trump made
00:30:31.000
a point of. So I can I can sit here and tell you some nice things about Trump. I thought he was
00:30:34.880
controlled and measured for the most part. I thought he was on message and was particularly good at hitting
00:30:41.540
things on immigration and drugs and stuff like that. But I think that the system just got the signal
00:30:47.820
tonight. Joe Biden is toast. And, you know, you mentioned two pillars of this sort of that there
00:30:54.180
is Joe Biden's unfit ability to be president, which that has been obvious to everyone. The more
00:30:59.680
interesting one is the second part that you talked about, the media part and that Joe Scarborough clip
00:31:04.360
that you played. We've played that on my show many times as well. And it's like, you're right. He wants
00:31:08.920
to be close to power. But I would say there's something even slightly more nefarious than that,
00:31:13.740
which is that these people, in effect, are paid to lie. Joe Scarborough has that job with his wife
00:31:22.300
sitting next to him because they are paid to push that propaganda. Joy Reid, who apparently now post
00:31:28.500
debate is calling Obama people and they're like all freaking out right now. She is paid to lie. Now,
00:31:33.760
she's not paid to lie to necessarily suck up to Biden that much because she's more on the progressive
00:31:37.860
side. But she's paid to lie when it pertains to wokeness and DEI and CRT and the rest of it.
00:31:43.040
So when you start understanding that, and I know you understand it as someone that came from
00:31:47.240
cable news, then then the rest of the picture becomes very clear. But I don't see how anyone
00:31:53.080
in their right mind could have watched that debate, even if you hate Trump and you have
00:31:57.580
Trump derangement syndrome and you think all the January 6th stuff is legit and everything else.
00:32:02.300
I do not know how one person in America could have watched that debate and thought Joe Biden is
00:32:08.060
fit to be president. That is the only thing that matters right now.
00:32:10.860
No, there's so I'm looking for the people saying, no, you know what? You're being too
00:32:14.660
hard on him. I'm not seeing it. In fact, I'm seeing some very different reactions. I'm going
00:32:19.680
to play for you in one second. First of all, let me show you this video. Here is video of Jill Biden
00:32:24.700
guiding the commander in chief off of the stage. There she is up there, just like we've seen
00:32:31.000
everywhere. She she's got to go get him. Shame on her. Look at her. She's helping him down the steps.
00:32:40.900
Yeah. Shame on her. Dave Rubin. Shame on her. Megan, let's not let's not forget, Megan,
00:32:46.740
that Whoopi Goldberg thought that Dr. Jill Biden should be surgeon general. Remember that one?
00:32:51.820
She's not. If only she really did have medical abilities.
00:32:54.280
Right, right, right, right. Look, all of it. Doesn't it feel like the system just finished
00:33:00.820
him tonight? Like this was this was the last chance that maybe he could be drugged up enough
00:33:06.600
to go ahead. I would say, you know, the biggest loser tonight may not be Joe Biden, because I don't
00:33:10.700
know that he even wants this. Who knows what's really going on in the recesses of his mind?
00:33:14.780
The biggest loser of this might be Barack Obama, because it's fairly obvious that this has been
00:33:19.600
Obama's third term that Obama people are running the show here. Everyone knows Joe Biden. Yes,
00:33:24.980
it might say his name on the desk in the Oval Office, but he has not been the president. The
00:33:29.740
decisions are not being made by him. I don't even think he's privy to half of the decisions. He's
00:33:34.280
signing things probably that he has no idea what he's signing. I would say that Obama got his third
00:33:39.960
term, as Obama said years ago. Remember, if I could just not be the president, but have the mic in
00:33:44.940
somebody's ear and all that. And Obama now probably has to escalate whatever the plan is to
00:33:50.600
replace Biden. So, you know, Gavin Newsom showed up there, the devil incarnate. He was on location
00:33:55.700
over there at the debate tonight. We will see what they do. I heard your previous guest mention a
00:34:00.280
couple other people. Now Gretchen Whitmer keeps being talked about, but they have a very thin bench
00:34:04.640
and they have a very fractured party. And that's why, you know, that I've been very focused on trying
00:34:10.800
to take sort of moderate Democrats and people that have woken up to the lunacy of the left
00:34:16.540
and encourage Trump to create the widest tent ever. And I think there's an opportunity for that,
00:34:22.140
which again, we don't even really have to talk about Trump here, but that's why I was really
00:34:25.600
impressed with him. He let Biden kind of break down. He did not go too crazy. He controlled his
00:34:30.140
facial expressions. And the golf, yeah. The golf thing was amazing. But wait, let me get to some of
00:34:34.660
the reaction that's growing in right now, because it's pretty extraordinary what we're hearing.
00:34:38.700
You mentioned Obama. David Plouffe helped get Barack Obama elected. And here he is on MSNBC
00:34:44.860
with Rachel Maddow. Listen. President Obama's campaign manager in 2008, David Plouffe is with
00:34:51.480
us. David, I know you have been talking to some muckety-mucks in democratic politics, including
00:34:56.460
what we gingerly call the donor class. What was your personal David Plouffe take on what you saw
00:35:03.400
tonight? And what are you hearing from the people you've been speaking with? Well, I think consistent
00:35:07.580
with your reaction, Rachel, and others on the panel. It's kind of a DEF CON 1 moment.
00:35:17.440
Anderson, this was a game-changing debate in the sense that right now, as we speak,
00:35:22.420
there is a deep, a wide, and a very aggressive panic. It involves party strategists. It involves
00:35:28.220
elected officials. It involves fundraisers. And they're having conversations about the president's
00:35:32.960
performance, which they think was dismal, which they think will hurt other people down the party
00:35:37.240
in the ticket. And they're having conversations about what they should do about it. Some of those
00:35:41.260
conversations include, should we go to the White House and ask the president to step aside?
00:35:45.160
Others are other of the conversations are about, should prominent Democrats go public
00:35:49.440
with that call? Because they feel this debate was so terrible.
00:35:53.300
Buckle up, Dave. This is going to be a rough next couple of months because the Democratic
00:35:59.740
Convention is now weeks away. It's in August in Chicago. And the Biden campaign is already trying
00:36:08.820
to set it up such that the actual nomination will be done virtually weeks before that. So he's locked
00:36:15.200
in as the nominee. What they'll do to stop it, I know not, but I think they're finally convinced.
00:36:23.300
What an absolute farce all of these people are. They have been running cover for Joe Biden. They
00:36:29.980
have been running cover for this administration. They have pretended that we didn't see what we've
00:36:36.200
all seen, the flubs and confusions and muddling and making, and who's in charge? Remember,
00:36:41.800
that's his other thing, right? When he takes questions every now and again, he'll start saying
00:36:45.420
something and he goes, oh, I'm not supposed to say that. I'll get in trouble. There's been so many
00:36:49.320
red flags here. Dave, they actually were calling us ableist. They were calling us ableist, right?
00:36:55.940
Keep going. Sorry. No. Well, so I'm not going to curse on the Megyn Kelly show, but I would
00:37:03.160
basically say F you to all of these people. They have now put us in this situation where we are a
00:37:08.220
month away from a convention, as you just laid out, and they are about to swap him out. So everything
00:37:12.600
that we've been dealing with for the last year, you know, in essence, thinking that it was going to
00:37:16.020
be Trump and Biden, they are done with Biden. And they just put us through all of this on top of
00:37:22.120
the fact that, you know, I think we could probably deal with it if the world was in a bit of a better
00:37:27.840
spot. But we have this insane Russia-Ukraine war, non-war that we're funding, but we're not in,
00:37:33.420
something like that. The Israel-Hamas thing is actually secondary now to a much bigger war that
00:37:39.060
could blow up with Hezbollah and Lebanon, and that could bring in several other countries.
00:37:43.280
Obviously, we're having economic problems here. Just look at the interest rates or go to the
00:37:47.500
supermarket. Like there's serious stuff. If things were just kind of working, then I think we could
00:37:53.400
put up with, you know, having a guy that was a little confused and everything else, and we would
00:37:57.560
just joke about it. But everything you said a moment before I came on about the way his mouth was,
00:38:03.120
the staring off into complete blankness, the sentences that went nowhere, it's enough now. If you've
00:38:12.420
been pretending not to see it, if you're watching this and you were just kind of on the fence,
00:38:15.820
you have to see it now. This is serious stuff at this point.
00:38:21.880
That was painful. I love Joe Biden. I work for Joe Biden. He didn't do well at all. He did not do
00:38:34.180
well at all. And he looked, you know, I'll give you the analysis, you know, kind of have the old man
00:38:40.300
versus the con man. I can walk you through how I'm supposed to see it and say it, but I just want to
00:38:46.260
speak from my heart. I love that guy. That's a good man. He loves his country. He's doing the
00:38:53.760
best that he can. But he had a test to meet tonight to restore confidence of the country and of the
00:39:00.480
base. And he failed to do that. And I think there's a lot of people who are going to want to see him
00:39:06.440
consider taking a different course now. We're still far from our convention. And there is time for this
00:39:14.220
party to figure out a different way forward if he will allow us to do that. But that was not what
00:39:19.860
we needed from Joe Biden. And it's personally painful for a lot of people. It's not just panic.
00:39:24.120
It's pain of what we saw tonight. And one more, one more, Dave. Listen to this. This just in from
00:39:30.900
CBS News and Ed O'Keefe, the White House reporter. There are at least some House Democrats who were
00:39:38.540
gathered tonight watching this together, talking about talking to the White House about having him
00:39:42.160
stepped down. That's how bad it was in their view. Remember, House Democrats are on the verge of
00:39:47.820
trying to get back the majority. They're nervous about doing that in places in these battleground
00:39:52.620
states where they're going to need a strong top of the ticket. They may need to rely on a strong
00:39:56.060
senator gubernatorial candidate. And in some cases, they don't have it. Step down before the convention.
00:40:00.440
Well, to at least throw up somebody else instead of the president that that debated tonight.
00:40:04.960
Dave Biden's Megan presidency, never mind his second term, is disintegrating before our very eyes.
00:40:16.160
Look, the truth is a time release pill. And we are now seeing people who have laundered the lies
00:40:22.320
and told us not to see what we see in front of us now being confronted with the obvious reality.
00:40:28.380
They can all you know, it's interesting. Van Jones, he's sort of emoting there and he loves him and all
00:40:33.080
of that stuff. But it's like, dude, you knew you didn't just you didn't just magically see something
00:40:39.180
that came out of nowhere. We have all known this. So you have all been part of it. And now whatever
00:40:44.620
they've all been given the signal. Oh, someone else is talking about it. Now somebody else will
00:40:48.440
talk about it. Somebody else will talk about it. And we will get rid of him. And by the way,
00:40:52.440
if you're Joe Biden for whatever whatever is left of Joe Biden. And by the way, I had two grandmothers
00:40:58.480
that I that I lost to dementia and Alzheimer's related issues that I spent a lot of time with
00:41:03.260
one of them, particularly towards the end dealing with that and going to doctors. So for all the
00:41:07.220
glibness that we can make of this, it's deeply depressing. But Biden should not have to spend
00:41:12.000
his last few years in this situation. This isn't this isn't the right ending of any man being propped
00:41:18.040
up there, which is why your comments on Jill Biden are totally right. But look, as this ship sinks
00:41:23.200
further, the rats are going to scurry. And there's the other part of this, of course, Megan,
00:41:27.380
is that there's a huge scandal here. They have been drugging him. Obviously, they have people
00:41:33.620
know what's going on. There is some doctor that knows what's going on. Does Corinne Jean Pierre
00:41:38.660
know? I don't know. But I guarantee you, Jill Biden knows and probably the chief of staff knows
00:41:43.580
and a couple other people. But now that the signals out there and there's you know, there's
00:41:47.060
blood around him, in essence, somebody is going to break. And then it'll be like, you know,
00:41:51.340
I was the one I a couple months ago, I was telling everybody we had to do something about
00:41:55.000
this. So we have completely, I would say, traversed into new territory tonight. And it
00:42:00.760
has almost nothing to do with any of the issues that will fix America. And that's the deeply
00:42:05.680
depressing part. There will be piece after piece after piece in the papers now of exactly those
00:42:14.680
people you just mentioned. I knew I tried to warn White House sources say they've been trying to
00:42:20.840
warn people for months. And you're right, they'll start turning on each other. Because when you have
00:42:26.560
Joy Reid and David Plouffe, right, she's more the more woke squad dem. And David Plouffe is the more
00:42:33.900
Obama sort of seasoned, whatever, distinguished, they're not exactly squaddy dem. And you know,
00:42:40.180
the Van Joneses of the world, all saying it's panic, and he might actually need to step down.
00:42:47.300
You have a genuine crisis on your hands. And the press will start printing those stories
00:42:52.180
immediately, which will lead to just more feeding frenzy. And the only question is whether they can
00:42:58.540
do it. Is there enough time? Oh, please. We're getting. Oh, come on. Here's Jill Biden lying again.
00:43:08.120
Oh, my God. She's talking to him like he's a baby. Yes, right. You have two babies right now.
00:43:28.660
That's how you talk to them. Is it not? You did all you got all the. Can we listen to it again?
00:43:33.560
We need to listen to it again. I actually don't talk. Joe, you did such a great job. You answered
00:43:43.600
every question. Oh, my God. Unbelievable. Megan, I do want to be very clear. I don't talk down to
00:43:53.400
my children. I talk to them like adults. They're only about one and a half. But Justin will look at
00:43:57.560
me sometimes and he'll be like, dude, I'm a kid. What do you come on? But that is just so embarrassing.
00:44:01.740
And she is so in on it. If you want to be angry at somebody tonight, like we can be angry at all
00:44:06.680
of the media people. But everyone in America really should be angry at Jill Biden. It's elder
00:44:10.980
abuse, which she has done in her quest for power or whatever deal she has made with Obama or anything
00:44:16.880
else. I mean, my God, you answered every question. That's not even true. He is not rambled
00:44:23.320
incoherently. Here is a statement from the Biden campaign on tonight's debate.
00:44:32.560
Tonight, President Biden presented a positive and winning vision for the future of America,
00:44:37.780
one in which every American has a fair shot at the American dream, where every one of our rights
00:44:42.020
are protected and where our president fights to strengthen our democracy, not tear it down.
00:44:45.200
On the other side of the stage was Donald Trump. Dark, backwards window. Terrible, terrible,
00:44:50.080
terrible. Trump's performance tonight reminded the American people why they fired him four years
00:44:54.220
ago and reinforced just how high the stakes are this November for the future of our country.
00:44:58.300
Well, I agree with those last four words. You know, I mean, this is a pathetic attempt to spin
00:45:03.160
his positive vision. This isn't going to fly. For once, it doesn't seem like the media is going along
00:45:09.900
and they can't. They can't because to your point earlier, they can't. They've been exposed. The
00:45:16.380
jig is up. We've seen it. We've seen it repeatedly before tonight. The bullshit, not deep fakes. What
00:45:25.120
is Kareem Jean-Pierre? Cheap fakes. Excuse cheap fakes is not going to fly. It's a lie. They've been
00:45:31.580
lying and spinning and it's the country that's at stake. Shame on them all. Dave Rubin,
00:45:39.620
my friend, so glad you could join us and I'll give you the last word.
00:45:44.100
Well, I would just say if you want absolute proof of what you just said right there, think about it.
00:45:48.160
When they talked about the very fine people moment, which is a complete hoax and Trump addressed it as
00:45:53.000
a hoax, Biden still was pretending it was real. Jake Tapper, who many, many times on his show over
00:45:58.980
the year, over the years has said it was true. If Biden had not completely broke down tonight,
00:46:04.600
all of the people that we just showed from CNN and MSNBC and everywhere else,
00:46:08.660
they would have still been laundering that lie. So it's not that they won't lie. It's that now it
00:46:14.580
is it is so evident. It is so cataclysmically evident to everyone that they are going to have
00:46:20.780
to either lie in a whole new way or who knows what tricks they have up their sleeves. But I think the
00:46:25.140
dam has broken and we're in a very different situation starting right now. Yeah, I think you
00:46:30.840
mean Jake Tapper has admitted it's not true. He's he's on record as saying this is at least I saw a clip
00:46:36.340
of him saying it's much more nuanced than you're suggesting. But that lie about whether Trump called
00:46:41.760
white supremacists in Charlottesville very good people has been debunked over and over. It was
00:46:45.880
amazing. Biden took that risk. It truly was as if he hadn't seen. Yeah, yeah, it was truly like he hadn't
00:46:52.640
seen the fact checks, including one that just came out the other day, which I just tweeted out tonight.
00:46:56.360
Dave, thank you. Great to see you. Good to see you, my friend. Up next, Eric Bowling. And we'll also
00:47:04.940
take some of your calls. I want to talk to Eric about Trump's performance, too. He knows Trump very
00:47:08.600
well. He's a big fan. And that we saw a totally different Donald Trump tonight. We just if that
00:47:14.760
Donald Trump stays on this campaign trail from now through November, he can't lose. He can't lose.
00:47:22.480
That's the Trump we need to see. Whatever it takes. Love to know your thoughts. Get on the line
00:47:28.320
at 833-44-MEGYN, 833-446-3496. First, though, we recently had some huge news that no one seems to
00:47:36.800
be talking about. For the first time in history, the interest we pay on the national debt surpassed
00:47:42.040
every individual budget item except Social Security. Yes, the U.S. now spends more on interest
00:47:47.700
than on national defense or even Medicare. And it's only getting worse as big government
00:47:52.040
continues to spend like a bunch of drunken sailors. That is why savvy investors, central banks,
00:47:56.780
and concerned savers are looking at gold, something not tied to the inflated U.S. dollar.
00:48:02.260
You can, too, with the help of Birch Gold. For over 20 years, Birch Gold Group, which really is the
00:48:09.280
gold standard, has helped thousands of Americans protect their savings by converting an IRA or 401k
00:48:15.580
into an IRA in physical gold. If you want to learn more, and you should, because diversifying
00:48:20.520
is important at a time like this. Text MK to 989898 to get some more information, and you can claim
00:48:28.180
your free no-obligation info kit on gold. Birch Gold uses an education-first approach. They've got
00:48:34.000
thousands of happy customers. They're off the charts, positive with the Better Business Bureau,
00:48:38.220
and they've got countless of five-star reviews. Consider protecting your savings and text MK to
00:48:44.080
989898 today. Okay, in just a little bit, I'm going to be taking your calls. Who do you think
00:48:50.200
won the debate? Honestly, that's like what we always ask, but a better question at this point is,
00:48:55.120
do you think that Biden is going to remain the nominee? Will Biden remain the nominee?
00:48:59.660
Call me, 833-44-MEGYN. That's 833-446-3496. But first, I'm joined by Eric Bolling,
00:49:08.280
host of the Eric Bolling Podcast. Eric, welcome back to the show. Your reaction
00:49:12.380
to what happened tonight? Well, basically everything you and David just talked about,
00:49:18.300
Megan, I'm glad you ended with that Corinne Jean-Pierre deep fakes comment that she came out
00:49:23.600
because, you know, for the better part of the last couple of weeks, they're saying that all the
00:49:27.440
things that we're seeing on X, on social media, and then makes its way to cable news, eventually
00:49:34.420
Biden making mistakes, Biden tripping, Biden going the wrong way, Biden getting lost with a G7
00:49:40.900
meeting, having to be brought back by an Italian president or prime minister. Those were all fake,
00:49:48.060
and they weren't real. Those were right-wing extremists putting out deep fakes. What we saw
00:49:52.120
tonight, Megan, within five seconds of the debate was Joe Biden is severely in trouble.
00:50:01.100
He's demented. It was awful. You couldn't hear him. He was mumbling. He got lost. One of the first
00:50:06.780
longer comments he made, he got lost. He walked himself right into a dead end, had to stop and
00:50:12.280
mumble something about Medicare. And Trump just hit that ball right over the left field fence by saying,
00:50:17.820
yeah, you crushed Medicare. You destroyed Medicare. And it went downhill for Biden from there. I will
00:50:24.040
agree with a lot of things that I'm hearing. I've watched CNN right after the debate. Very
00:50:28.600
interesting. Yeah. Van Jones, he did something important. So the debate ends and they go around
00:50:34.800
the table. And of course, the first few are the pundits and the pundits. Oh, Trump was lying. He was
00:50:40.020
terrible. Joe was so strong. And then the people who knew stepped up. They became adults in the room.
00:50:46.480
Van was the first one to say, I love Joe Biden. Joe Biden loves his country. That man is not ready
00:50:53.240
for a second term. They need to replace Joe Biden. And then fortunately, David Axelrod, who was
00:50:59.260
pretty good as a brains behind Barack Obama's presidency, agreed with Dan Jones. So the people
00:51:04.360
who know, realize that the Democrats are going to have to replace him. And I think it's important
00:51:08.960
that you're talking about who won the debate. No, that's not relevant anymore because Trump did a
00:51:14.180
fantastic job. If you look on Twitter, trending on Twitter, number one trend is debates. But then it
00:51:22.800
comes down to Kamala Harris. Oh, and then there's Bernie Sanders. Oh, and then there's Michelle Obama.
00:51:30.900
These are trending on Twitter right now, post-debate. Hillary Clinton, Mike Obama, which is a shot at
00:51:37.280
Michelle. So the vast majority of Twitter right now. Who's going to replace Joe Biden? Because
00:51:44.040
who's the pinch hitter realizing it? Twitter. It's not just it's not just the names you mentioned
00:51:49.060
or the ones I mentioned. The reaction continues to come in from the left wing media. I give you
00:51:53.860
Kristen Welker on NBC moments ago. Watch. There is widespread panic among Democrats. I got a number
00:52:02.980
of text messages this evening. Democrats reaching out to say this is difficult to watch. Where does
00:52:11.260
this go from here? One Democratic lawmaker, Tom, going so far as to say this race is effectively over.
00:52:20.960
Wow. Think about that. We just heard NBC News with MSNBC say the race is over. It's done.
00:52:30.740
Widespread panic. Meetings amongst lawmakers, according to CBS News, about going to the White
00:52:36.540
House to tell them he must step out. This cannot go on. This just dropping here in the Atlantic.
00:52:44.520
A disaster for Joe Biden is the headline. There will be many more just like this. Go ahead, Eric.
00:52:50.200
So so doesn't this feel you and I have done this for the better part of 30 years, Megan?
00:52:54.720
Doesn't this feel like the media is telling the Democrat Party and the White House guys,
00:53:00.440
we can't we can't hide for you. We can't cover for you anymore.
00:53:04.320
Can't do it anymore. You've been exposed. You can't do it. We've we've we've we've provided
00:53:09.360
the cover for you up until now. Now the game is up. You we can't do it. So if you want to do this,
00:53:15.840
it's on your you're on your own and you'll lose. They're basically telling effectively NBC,
00:53:21.280
the Atlantic, others, all the left wing media that have been the shills for the for the Biden presidency
00:53:26.340
for three and a half years, four years since he's been running, have said, if you're going to run
00:53:31.520
Biden, you're going to lose. We highly recommend you figure out who next. Very interesting.
00:53:37.360
Gavin Newsom was over on MSNBC post debate. I don't know. He's throwing his hat in the ring.
00:53:43.280
Well, that's the thing. Who do they have, Eric? Who do they have?
00:53:45.540
Michelle Obama. Michelle Obama is Michelle Obama hates politics. I know. I know. But she hates
00:53:51.940
politics. I mean, absolutely hates it. Today, there was an article I think was Axios talking
00:53:55.900
about how she's not helping the Biden campaign. Apparently, there's a rift because she's upset
00:54:00.480
that they didn't treat Hunter's ex-wife better. But it even in there was underscoring how she loathes
00:54:07.200
politics, wants nothing to do with it. I don't know. I Gretchen Whitmer, people don't really
00:54:12.260
know her within the Democratic Party. Yes. She doesn't have the kind of national name. Right.
00:54:17.500
Is there anybody other than Michelle Obama who could actually make this a race with Trump now?
00:54:23.360
Hillary, you know, there's another way to do this. And there's another I know, but there's a way to
00:54:29.300
do this. And I don't know. You need to talk to some high, high level Democrat operatives.
00:54:36.860
You know, they could replace Kamala Harris and put someone like Hillary or Michelle Obama in the
00:54:41.860
vice president spot and then hopefully pull off a win and then have Joe step aside and they can put
00:54:47.380
in a second in charge from there. That's a way to save face for Biden. But then you run the risk of
00:54:53.240
not winning. I mean, this is there. This is a five alarm fire for them right now. They need to figure
00:54:59.380
it out. They've got exactly two months till the Democrat DNC convention to make their move.
00:55:05.060
They'll probably talk. My guess is they're going to talk. Again, Megyn Kelly, I adore you. You've
00:55:11.060
spent countless hours at the White House, as I have. When you're in the White House and the president
00:55:16.960
and the first lady or the first family are around, the C's part. There's dozens of secret service
00:55:23.920
people. There's dozens of handlers helping you lift your finger, put your shirt on. The ego
00:55:30.340
gratification of being a president, a first lady, a first family member is insane. It's intense.
00:55:37.420
Everything is taken care of for you. Michelle may hate politics, but I guarantee the Obamas
00:55:42.720
love the lifestyle of living at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue and all the bells and whistles that come
00:55:48.900
with it. The Air Force One everywhere you go, you step off the plane, you step into wherever you're
00:55:54.120
headed. The path has been predetermined for you. Not to mention the chance of being the first female
00:55:59.500
president, not to mention the chance of being the first female president. And if they came to her and
00:56:03.480
said, your country needs you, if you don't do this, it is a guarantee that Donald Trump will
00:56:10.060
be president again. And you know, you know, they genuinely see him as a Hitler-esque figure.
00:56:14.520
I'm just going to give you a little bit more. First, let's play Chuck Todd and his reaction
00:56:18.140
at NBC. You know, one of the things was, would either candidate look like the caricature
00:56:24.600
that the other campaign has been trying to paint of him? And at the end of the day,
00:56:29.120
Joe Biden looks like the caricature that conservative media has been painting. And there
00:56:34.860
were no clips tonight, right? This was, you saw it before your eyes. Look, I don't want
00:56:39.740
to just tell you what I think here, Tom. I've been talking to a lot of leaders in the Democratic
00:56:47.380
Party, electeds, coalition leaders. There's a full-on panic about this performance. Not like,
00:56:55.960
oh, this is recoverable. It is more of a, okay, he's got to step aside. There's a lot of that
00:57:03.080
chatter. This is about as bad of a performance that Biden could have delivered if his goal was
00:57:14.340
to try to sort of calm the waters among Democrats. I mean, look. Yeah, if that was his goal, he failed.
00:57:21.380
I mean, we heard it now across the board, CBS, CNN, MSNBC, NBC. The Atlantic just pulled up this
00:57:29.760
piece, a disaster for Joe Biden. In tonight's first debate at the presidential campaign,
00:57:33.800
the president appeared meandering, confused, and extremely frail. His performance was at times
00:57:38.040
almost physically uncomfortable to watch and will greatly amplify the calls for him to step aside.
00:57:43.620
When the debates were announced in May, some pundits viewed it as a win for Biden,
00:57:46.620
who was trailing Trump narrowly but consistently. His campaign wanted to put Trump in front of the
00:57:50.760
Americans early in the campaign and remind them of the chaos and division he produced. It was a bold
00:57:57.120
gamble by the president and he lost. Oh boy, did he ever. It's across the board. My phone's blowing
00:58:04.760
up. Every single pundit, every single person with any connection to Democrat officials, Eric is saying
00:58:09.640
he's done. I don't even know if he's going to finish his presidency at this point.
00:58:13.060
So let's deal in what we know right now. What we know right now is going into this debate,
00:58:20.920
Trump was leading in all seven of the swing states. In fact, today there was a most more recent poll
00:58:25.640
that had him leading in all seven of them, even on a wider margin. And I had that, which I don't buy
00:58:31.720
these head to head national polls ever. It's, you need to take it state by state, but Trump's leading
00:58:35.780
going into the debate. Trump, for whatever reason, he really stayed within himself. He was cogent. He
00:58:43.100
was, he was reserved. He didn't take the bait when Biden was calling him convicted felon, sleeping
00:58:50.880
with porn. Trump stayed. And you pointed out, if he stays, if this is the Trump he stays after the
00:58:56.120
next five months, he's president. You know what, Megan, it's over. Let's, we know what we know right
00:58:59.680
now. Joe Biden against Trump. Trump is the, he's going to be the next president based on what we
00:59:05.820
know at this very moment right now. There's no stopping him right now. The only thing that could
00:59:10.220
possibly happen would be something that's probably never happened before. I'm not even sure it's ever
00:59:13.700
happened in politics, but it's a Hail Mary pass. It's fourth down. There's eight seconds left on the
00:59:20.080
clock and they're down by six and they're going to have to throw a Hail Mary pass at the corner of the
00:59:24.180
end zone. I don't think Joe Biden is Doug Flutie. He may be, but I just don't think it's going to
00:59:28.940
happen. I think what you saw tonight was a slam dunk, a close the books. Katie, the game is over
00:59:35.480
bar the doors. It's done. Donald Trump is the 47th president of the United States.
00:59:40.480
I couldn't agree more. I mean, there's just, I don't know how you could deny it based on what
00:59:44.740
we saw tonight. And we haven't talked much about Trump and that's appropriate. The story tonight is
00:59:48.360
Biden, but Trump was excellent. He was controlled. He was strong. His memory was like a steel trap
00:59:58.400
tonight. He had details. He went back. He corrected Biden's mistakes. He kept his temperament
01:00:04.980
in check. There were a couple of small moments where they did a little bickering. Fine. It was
01:00:09.160
no big deal. It was a, it was just the best version of Donald Trump. So, I mean, the contrast was
01:00:15.800
stunning. You know, I love, I loved, and people are going to laugh at this. I love the back and
01:00:21.820
forth about the golf. Oh, it was funny. Yeah. It was, it was trivial. And there's, it was two guys
01:00:26.420
like, you know, but the reality is we see Trump hitting a golf ball, 250 yards. We see Trump making
01:00:34.840
his way around a golf course. We also see Joe Biden barely capable of getting, you showed the clip
01:00:41.300
just a little bit earlier of, he can barely get off the stage. And for him to say that he's going
01:00:47.640
to challenge Trump to a golf game, it just proves he's lying. He's just doing whatever he can to stay
01:00:54.120
relevant. The reason why we're not talking about Trump is you're right. Cause it was the story was
01:00:58.060
Joe Biden tonight. And I opened with the Twitter trending on X. Trump wasn't one of them trending on
01:01:04.640
X. Think about it. When does Trump not the one trending on X? That's amazing. He wasn't even on the list
01:01:09.340
of 15 top trending where it was replacements for Biden. It was Biden. It was dementia. It was
01:01:13.980
much, but not Donald Trump. And that's what he needs. You're right. That's the Trump he needs.
01:01:19.120
Yes. It was actually very impressive. I mean, good for him because the stakes were high for him too.
01:01:23.880
And he's only human. I'm sure he felt the pressure of having to go out there and he nailed it.
01:01:27.780
Unlike his opponent. Um, right now the name Gavin Newsom is getting mentioned a lot. Uh, he is
01:01:36.520
on camera speaking to how this went. Here's a bit of it. He was on MSNBC.
01:01:42.040
You were out there getting a chorus of questions about whether Biden should step down. There is
01:01:46.800
panic that has set in. Uh, well, there is panic that has set in among people who have watched this
01:01:52.700
debate, who are Democrats, people who are strategists and some even inside democratic
01:01:58.900
Well, I think it's unhelpful. Uh, and I think it's unnecessary. Uh, we've got to go in and got
01:02:04.460
to keep our heads high. And as I say, we've got to have the back of this president. You don't turn
01:02:09.140
your back because of one performance. What kind of party does that? It's been a masterclass, 15.6
01:02:15.320
million jobs. That's eight times more than the last three Republican presidents combined. The only
01:02:19.960
thing the last three Republican presidents have in common is recessions. Democrats deliver.
01:02:24.200
This president is delivered. We need to deliver for him at this moment with all due respect. The
01:02:29.480
more time we, we, we, we start having these conversations go down these rabbit holes, unhelpful
01:02:34.120
to our democracy, our fate and future of this country, the world, they need us right now to step
01:02:39.840
up. And that's exactly what I intend to do. All right. So he's saying what he has to say. Go ahead.
01:02:48.020
This is exactly what I was saying before the political class, the Democrat, the, the,
01:02:53.340
the politicians are saying it's Biden and he's going to win. And Trump was terrible. And Biden's
01:02:58.260
amazing. And, you know, he can be Trump a guy, you know, he's the guy and the media who've been
01:03:04.260
basically providing cover for a failing president, uh, both, you know, physically, but also, you know,
01:03:11.220
the economy and allowing him to say that inflation, uh, was 9% when he took over, they've been covering
01:03:17.360
for him. And the media is now throwing their hands up and say, you politicians can do whatever the heck
01:03:22.840
you want, but we can't cover for you anymore. So whatever happens from here on out, it's going to
01:03:27.540
be on you. But I think this was just a watershed moment. Fantastic for the political process in
01:03:33.720
America. You know, it really is going to be, Eric, we, it is, it was so bad that it right today is
01:03:39.220
June 27th, right? June 27th. It was so bad. We actually could get a president Harris between now
01:03:47.960
and November. We, we truly, he could get 25th amendmented. That could be, that literally might
01:03:55.080
be happening overnight tonight. There could be meetings about that. But see, but they're, but
01:03:59.660
they're, but they're not, they don't want to do that either. Megan. They know she's the least
01:04:03.040
popular vice president. She's a horrible candidate. But he's not compass mentis.
01:04:12.060
He hasn't been for a long time though. It's it, you know, but so let's do this politically.
01:04:18.680
They want to win. They don't want to lose the presidency, right? I think the surest way to lose
01:04:23.680
it would be to, to have Joe step aside and let Kamala. No, they're not going to run number two.
01:04:29.560
They can't run her. I mean, you raise a good point because if they, if they make, if he's
01:04:33.020
steps aside and she becomes the president, then they have to run her and they definitely
01:04:36.340
don't want to run her there. They're much more in love with Gretchen Whitmer. If they go with
01:04:40.660
Gavin Newsom, I just like, there's, there's zero chance he can beat Trump. Zero. That man is the
01:04:45.700
most progressive far left. He's transing children by the dozens. As we speak, he's making it a safe
01:04:53.840
haven for illegals, for people who want to chop their minor son's penis off. I mean, that guy
01:05:00.600
is a lunatic in the way he runs his state. It would be an even greater gift to Trump to
01:05:05.880
sub Biden out and put that guy in. I don't see that happening. I want to get to Kamala Harris.
01:05:11.560
She'd wait. She has weighed in on her, on the president's performance. Here's what she said.
01:05:18.600
Listen, first of all, what we saw tonight is the president making a very clear contrast with
01:05:26.140
Donald Trump on all of the issues that matter to the American people. Yes, there was a slow start,
01:05:30.820
but it was a strong finish. And what became very clear through the course of the night is that
01:05:36.220
Joe Biden is fighting on behalf of the American people. Slow start. That's going to be the spin.
01:05:42.540
Slow start, Eric. It's too late. They don't realize it's too late.
01:05:48.520
Again, the politicians are the last to throw the towel in. They've needed, you know, the army is kind of
01:05:54.900
the media. They're left-wing media. They aren't, you know, basically generals, NBC, MSNBC, CNN. It
01:06:01.100
said, we're, we're out of here. You want to do this? You're, you're, you're on your own. We wish
01:06:06.160
you well, but it doesn't look good for him. So they'll, they'll come around. They'll, they'll,
01:06:09.920
they'll come around. They got to, they got to what a month and a half till they're,
01:06:12.840
to the DNC convention in Chicago, which should be a bloodbath anyway, not literal, but a figurative
01:06:18.760
bloodbath anyway, with, with the protesters. They don't even know what they are. What is a Democrat
01:06:23.720
now? What is Joe Biden? Are they pro-Israel? Are they anti-Israel? Are they pro-Palestine?
01:06:27.460
Are they, they're all over the board? Look, you know, it's, it's like, um, a, a, a sports
01:06:35.380
team. You, you, you've crushed it now. You've got the playoffs. You nailed the playoffs. Now
01:06:40.800
just don't screw it up. Just, just coast. You don't have to take chances anymore.
01:06:47.000
They shouldn't have agreed to the Democrats. Yeah. They never should have agreed to this
01:06:54.580
debate. It was, and there is 100% not going to be another debate. We said this earlier this week
01:07:01.640
on the, on our show. Let me ask you something. Like may I ask you a question? Yeah. And I didn't
01:07:06.080
hear the early part of the show. I was, I was watching some of the other coverage. I'm going
01:07:10.160
to say, I think Tapper and that one more Tapper. So I think it was very fair. I thought he was
01:07:16.240
even handed. I didn't dislike the way he handled the moderation. I expected a lot more bias coming
01:07:22.040
from, from Jake Tapper. And frankly, I think he did a very fair job. I thought they both did a nice
01:07:27.260
job. Um, I thought if, if bias showed up in any way, it was in the topic selection. I mean,
01:07:32.780
there was a lot on January 6th and climate change and race. It's like, okay, abortion,
01:07:39.300
not, not a single abortion, tons on abortion, not a democracy accepting the results of the next
01:07:45.300
election. I mean, they didn't find any time whatsoever to talk about what, you know, what
01:07:50.000
has to happen to young women and girls in this country as a result of Joe Biden's policies to
01:07:54.460
title nine changes, the, what were the mutilation that we're doing of our children? I mean, I could go
01:07:59.220
on. Um, so yeah, that's, but that's CNN. That's fine. That I'm sure CNN wasn't interested in any
01:08:05.060
of those topics. I also thought they did a nice job of shrinking, staying business, like not injecting
01:08:10.900
themselves too much and keeping to relatively simple topics that we knew were going to come up.
01:08:15.880
Um, I, I have to say one thing though, to have raised the possibility of weaponization,
01:08:20.780
weaponization of government as an issue in this debate and, and to have not put that accusation against
01:08:26.360
Joe Biden to have raised it only against Donald Trump. You said, if you get elected, you're going
01:08:32.560
to do it. It's being done four times over to Donald Trump. That was egregious to me.
01:08:39.620
In Trump to, to Trump's credit, he took that and didn't make it about himself. You know, he,
01:08:45.600
you watch him in rallies and debates. It's all about himself. He did. He turned it into January. Six
01:08:51.320
people were treated improperly. We're treated poorly, unfairly with bias. They shouldn't have
01:08:56.200
done what they've done to the January six people and, and let the, the George Floyd rioters,
01:09:01.480
you know, completely get a pass. So Trump didn't make that about himself. I thought that was very
01:09:06.060
refreshing. And maybe they thought maybe, and he did bring up the law trying to hook Trump in.
01:09:11.420
He did bring up the law fair against him with that. Like, I mean, they got into the story. Joe Biden,
01:09:15.540
that's the other thing. Joe Biden went low. He went low bringing up the stormy Daniels thing by name.
01:09:20.540
You had sex with a porn star, making Trump didn't deny that on the stage. He was getting
01:09:24.980
desperate and desperate people behave badly. That's what we saw. I got to go here. Cause I've
01:09:28.840
got a bunch of callers in the line that I want to get to. Great to see you, my friend. Thanks for
01:09:32.280
being here. You too, Megan. Talk to you again soon. All right. We've got our, our fans and our friends
01:09:38.740
at Sirius XM callers calling in. I want to get to Aaron in South Dakota. Aaron, what'd you think about
01:09:43.600
tonight? Um, I just wanted to share that, and this is not meant in a mean way at all. It's
01:09:50.420
really not, but the group chat and a large group chat. I mean, there were multiple people who were
01:09:54.360
saying, I I've seen this with my grandma or one, one girl said she works with people like
01:10:00.380
Democrat or Republican. If you've seen someone suffering from dementia, Alzheimer's old age,
01:10:06.300
whatever label you want to put on it. Um, it's real. And I don't know how you deny it. Like,
01:10:12.080
it's just like you said, but the sound that came out of my roommate, who's not very political
01:10:17.360
when he trailed off was, Oh, and that's just what it is. Yeah, no, it was extremely uncomfortable.
01:10:26.000
Like I said, we were actually grabbing each other like, Oh God, you know, watching it through your
01:10:30.360
hands. Like, I can't watch this. This is too uncomfortable. And if you were experiencing it
01:10:35.700
and we were experiencing it, I'm sure tons of people listening to us felt the same, had the
01:10:40.280
same. That's not how you want to look at your president. The answer of whether he can do four
01:10:43.760
more years was being answered just by the behavior and the stumbles. Thanks for calling in. Uh, let's
01:10:48.840
go up North of the border to somebody who is in Canada and that's Ayana. Hi Ayana. What's on your
01:10:54.600
mind? Hi Megan. First of all, I want to say that I love your show and I'm so grateful for you for
01:11:00.480
never being afraid to speak the truth. Um, so thank you for that. And I just want to say on a
01:11:07.560
political level, after witnessing what I witnessed tonight, um, I, I really am going to pray that the
01:11:16.900
American people get out there and vote. And I think it's pretty clear that president Trump is going to
01:11:23.300
be the next president. Uh, if Joe Biden does not, uh, bow out that being said on a human level,
01:11:31.720
I think that this is literally elder abuse. Um, you know, like a lot of people have said,
01:11:38.620
like the caller previous to me said, um, you know, I also lost my grandfather to Alzheimer's and
01:11:44.820
dementia. And before he even spoke tonight, you can see there's this distinct look that,
01:11:52.820
that stare. Um, and I think that it's not even, uh, you know, it's not his fault and I'm talking
01:12:00.200
in a human level. I think, you know, he's, he's a terrible president, but besides that as a mom,
01:12:06.620
as a human being, I think that the real crime here is not Donald Trump. I think the real crime here
01:12:14.240
is that these enablers and that these people that are profiting from him being in office are allowing
01:12:22.660
this man to clearly just be abused. And I think. I agree with you. They won't let, they're not letting
01:12:30.860
him leave with dignity. And if I object, I thought the people around him who are lucid and young and
01:12:36.280
understand, um, really have to do some soul searching about what they've done here. I want to
01:12:41.640
tell the audience, uh, as you were talking, headline comes in from persuasion, a popular
01:12:46.940
digital magazine. The headline is the night the Biden presidency ended. That's very similar to what
01:12:53.020
we've been saying right here on the MK show. Um, let's take another caller, go down to Virginia
01:12:57.040
and Antonia. Antonia, what did you think of the debate? Hey, how's it going, Megan? Thanks so much
01:13:03.380
for taking my call. Uh, first off, I want to say I'm a huge fan. Love your show, girl. You're doing the
01:13:08.460
right thing. I'm glad you're doing this and not the mainstream media stuff anymore. You're rocking
01:13:12.380
it. But that stuff aside, um, I happen to work over here in the five-sided puzzle palace, by the way.
01:13:20.960
Um, I'm stationed here at Arlington. So, uh, I was actually in, um, Qatar and Afghanistan during the
01:13:28.220
Doha peace talks in 2019. And so to walk away from that for my deployment there, and then to see the,
01:13:35.200
um, the bots withdrawal, you know, in, uh, Afghanistan, it was, uh, pretty embarrassing
01:13:42.360
to say the least. And so for the president to either complicitly say that he didn't have anyone,
01:13:50.180
you know, needlessly die in his term, or maybe he just forgot. I don't know. Either way, it's pretty
01:13:56.360
bad. Um, so that, that like blew my mind. And then, um, you know, another, you know, I look at this
01:14:03.120
through the lens of like, uh, national security. I mean, like this, does he sit in on the meetings
01:14:11.080
that we have, like with the NSA and, you know, all, all these really high level classification
01:14:16.600
meetings that generally the commander in chief and his staff are a part of, like, can you imagine
01:14:23.240
the kind of stuff that he gets, uh, you know, told and, you know, I know, look at, look at the
01:14:29.760
way Jill Biden had to speak to him tonight, right? Look at the way his wife is speaking to him. You
01:14:34.040
answered all the questions. And this man is supposed to be in those NSA meetings, understanding the
01:14:40.980
intricate details of our national security portrait and making decisions to protect us and the rest of
01:14:46.380
the world based on them. It's a, it's a deeply alarming evening. Thank you for calling. Thank
01:14:52.600
you for your kind words too. Uh, we got to wrap it up cause we're almost right. We're almost to, uh,
01:14:58.100
the end of the show, but I want to tell you, I appreciate you being here. We're going to be back
01:15:02.400
on the air live as we always are between 12 and two on Sirius XM channel one 11. And we'll also release
01:15:10.620
the podcast and the YouTube, uh, in just a bit later after the show, youtube.com slash Megan Kelly.
01:15:16.380
Tomorrow on the show, we've got Steve Bannon. It's going to be an extraordinary day. I haven't
01:15:21.020
spoken with him ever. He launched quite a bit of attacks against me after the, uh, 2016 election,
01:15:29.440
the 2015 debate. I responded occasionally to him. I wasn't his biggest fan. This will be the first
01:15:36.120
time we've talked. And it's the perfect night because Steve Bannon, as he gets shipped off to
01:15:40.440
jail by this Biden administration knows a thing or two about what they're capable of.
01:15:45.220
And about how to fight them. And if they do not pull Joe Biden, it's going to have to be
01:15:51.040
all hands on deck because he cannot win another term. You know, that in your heart.
01:15:56.420
Thank you for being with us tonight. See you tomorrow.
