00:02:28.680 Really, before we talk about anything, I want to talk about President Trump's appearance at the Al Smith dinner.

00:02:36.500 The Al Smith dinner in New York, if you don't know it by name, you probably know it by sight.

00:02:42.400 It's that event that happens every election cycle when the presidential candidates show up in white tie and they tell jokes about each other.

00:02:51.060 This has been going on in American politics for over 60 years now.

00:02:55.300 Almost always, the presidential candidates show up, and it's lighthearted, and it shows they get along.

00:03:00.920 And there are a lot of Catholics in the room because it's mostly a Catholic dinner.

00:03:06.600 It's hosted by the Archbishop of New York, the Cardinal, Cardinal Dolan here.

00:03:13.520 There are a lot of Jews in the room because it's New York, so there are just a lot of Jews.

00:03:17.580 And it's lighthearted.

00:03:18.840 It's for charity.

00:03:19.820 It's a religious event.

00:03:20.660 It's really nice.

00:03:22.160 Kamala didn't show up.

00:03:24.260 Kamala did not show up because she couldn't take the heat.

00:03:27.620 This was, what, one day, two days after that Bret Baier interview that was disastrous for Kamala's campaign because the Bret Baier interview was the first time that Kamala had faced any difficult questions.

00:03:39.960 It's not that Bret Baier was hostile exactly.

00:03:42.360 He certainly wasn't insulting or anything like that.

00:03:45.360 He just asked her for the first time in this campaign that did not even really revolve around a presidential primary questions that were somewhat difficult.

00:03:54.020 So Kamala didn't show up.

00:03:55.860 Trump did show up.

00:03:58.080 Trump's clips are going viral.

00:03:59.820 I'll just hit a few of them off the top because not only are they funny, but they show you something about President Trump's campaign and President Trump the man.

00:04:08.160 Probably his best clip of the night is when he talks about the man sitting right next to him, Chuck Schumer, looking a little bit glum.

00:04:15.960 They are panicking because, you know, the votes that are coming in are coming in very, very strong in a certain way.

00:04:20.900 I won't tell you what way that is, but Chuck Schumer is here looking very glum.

00:04:26.340 Disney looks glum.

00:04:28.480 Disney looks glum.

00:04:29.080 Disney looks glum.

00:04:32.320 But look on the bright side, Chuck, considering how woke your party has become.

00:04:38.180 If Kamala loses, you still have a chance to become the first woman president. 0.82

00:04:42.220 It's a good line.

00:04:46.780 And you see Schumer sitting there truly looking glum, really looking miserable.

00:04:50.120 And then when Trump makes that point, Schumer does one of his half-hearted, no, we are excited.

00:04:57.460 You know, he's got his fists not in the air.

00:05:00.240 They're like halfway up into the air.

00:05:01.580 And it was not very persuasive.

00:05:04.280 Then he makes a say, he says, don't worry, Chuck, your party's so woke you could be the first woman president.

00:05:10.500 This hits exactly the right tone because it makes a little bit of fun of Chuck Schumer, but it's not a personal attack on Chuck Schumer.

00:05:18.480 It's a joke about how absurd the Democratic Party has become.

00:05:23.220 It's a joke about how the Democrats believe that a man can be a woman in principle.

00:05:27.500 So it's not mean.

00:05:28.920 It's not nasty.

00:05:30.300 This, I think, is the real brilliance of Trump's performance last night, is it shows that he's evolved a little.

00:05:39.100 He understands what this dinner is.

00:05:41.020 People forget now, but in 2016, when Trump showed up to this dinner, he was brutal to Hillary Clinton.

00:05:47.080 It was nasty.

00:05:48.220 He ended up getting booed.

00:05:49.620 And he didn't get booed because the jokes weren't funny.

00:05:51.500 A lot of them were funny.

00:05:52.340 But it wasn't the occasion.

00:05:54.140 That wasn't really the tenor of the Al Smith dinner.

00:05:56.440 This time, though, he hit the tone perfectly.

00:06:01.120 Trump then turns his attention, of course, to Kamala.

00:06:03.360 But I don't think Kamala has given up yet.

00:06:05.980 She hasn't.

00:06:06.660 Instead of attending tonight, she's in Michigan receiving communion from Gretchen Whitmer.

00:06:17.520 That's not a pretty sight.

00:06:18.920 But Catholics, please don't be too insulted by Kamala's absence.

00:06:25.380 If the Democrats, he says, thank you very much.

00:06:29.460 I appreciate that.

00:06:30.900 And then he goes on.

00:06:32.440 He got cheers for that joke.

00:06:34.160 Why?

00:06:35.760 Because that joke was not vicious or terribly insulting toward Kamala.

00:06:40.560 It was not even a joke about religion.

00:06:44.020 It was a gracious joke about the Democrats' attacks on religion.

00:06:49.520 Like when Gretchen Whitmer mocked the Holy Eucharist, mocked Holy Communion with that liberal journalist, Liz Plank. 0.99

00:06:55.340 And she sat there on her knees.

00:06:58.300 She knelt while receiving Doritos on the tongue as if that were Holy Communion. 1.00

00:07:04.540 He makes a joke about that.

00:07:05.780 That's a really biting little joke in there because the subtext of the joke is, hey, Catholics, hey, people in this room, Kamala disrespects you.

00:07:15.000 The Democrats in general disrespect you.

00:07:18.040 She disrespects you by not showing up.

00:07:19.880 She's probably with those other Democrats who overtly disrespect Catholics. 0.99

00:07:22.880 But hey, listen, not me.

00:07:24.120 Never mind.

00:07:24.640 Move on.

00:07:25.140 Move on.

00:07:25.580 Then the nearest joke to a true, brutal insult on the Democrats came when Trump was discussing white dudes for Kamala.

00:07:38.740 There's a group called White Dudes for Harris.

00:07:41.240 Have you seen this?

00:07:42.100 White Dudes for Harris.

00:07:43.520 Anybody know?

00:07:44.520 Are some of you here?

00:07:45.500 White Dudes for Harris.

00:07:46.220 It doesn't sound like it.

00:07:47.260 But I'm not worried about them at all because their wives and their wives lovers are all voting for me.

00:07:58.220 Every one of those people is voting for me.

00:08:03.300 That was the meanest joke of the night.

00:08:05.620 Completely accurate, by the way.

00:08:07.200 But the meanest joke of the night.

00:08:08.760 And even that, I think, landed pretty well.

00:08:11.720 Because the Democrats actually, in principle, explicitly support all that weird sex stuff.

00:08:20.820 So the joke, obviously a simple joke, he's calling the Democrats cucks.

00:08:24.420 He's calling them cuckolds.

00:08:26.020 But the Democrats themselves would say monogamy is overrated.

00:08:32.640 We need to be more open-minded.

00:08:34.620 We need to embrace the sexual revolution. 0.97

00:08:36.300 I'm not saying all Democrats, but many leading Democrats would say monogamy.

00:08:40.080 It's really inhuman.

00:08:41.600 We need to get on those apps that help people have threesomes.

00:08:44.520 And we need to be open.

00:08:45.460 We shouldn't be jealous.

00:08:46.720 And a man shouldn't be possessive of his wife and all the rest of it.

00:08:50.780 Saying, yeah, you guys are a bunch of cucks.

00:08:52.280 You're a bunch of cuckolds.

00:08:53.800 And you look at the White Dudes for Harris. 0.72

00:08:57.000 And that's how they look.

00:08:58.520 That's how they sound.

00:08:59.860 That's how they talk.

00:09:00.820 He's totally right.

00:09:02.780 Then one last little joke.

00:09:04.760 One last little punch that I think, not just because Trump is a good performer and he's

00:09:11.500 a comedian, he's been a comedian for decades.

00:09:13.420 But I think this kind of a joke shows you why Schumer was looking so glum sitting right

00:09:18.480 next to him.

00:09:19.540 Well, I'd better wrap up because Mayor Adams told me earlier that I needed to make this

00:09:24.420 one very quick, especially the city has reserved this room for a large group of illegal aliens 0.52

00:09:30.540 coming in from Texas.

00:09:32.840 That's right.

00:09:33.460 They've reserved many rooms, many rooms, a lot of rooms, too many rooms.

00:09:38.080 Too many rooms here.

00:09:39.400 This event is held at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel.

00:09:42.300 It's one of the nicest hotels in the city.

00:09:43.800 Again, why is it a good joke?

00:09:46.600 There's nothing funnier than a guy explaining a joke, of course.

00:09:48.740 But why is it a good joke?

00:09:50.400 Because there's truth to it.

00:09:52.940 Not far away from where this event was held, the Roosevelt Hotel, a storied, wonderful New

00:09:59.660 York City hotel, was turned into a migrant shelter.

00:10:03.880 After COVID, the hotel shut down.

00:10:05.620 Now, one of my favorite hotels in New York, it's a shelter for migrants. 1.00

00:10:08.920 I can't get a room there.

00:10:09.920 But maybe if I went to Venezuela and crossed illegally, then maybe I could. 0.91

00:10:15.100 The jokes landed because they ring true.

00:10:18.960 Up to and including Chuck Schumer's glumness.

00:10:22.900 Right now, the race is Donald Trump's to lose.

00:10:27.800 That's how it stands.

00:10:29.560 Right now, the issues all break for Republicans.

00:10:33.700 The issues of the social issues, the notion that a man can become a woman.

00:10:39.920 That breaks for Republicans.

00:10:42.480 The illegal immigration, that breaks for Republicans.

00:10:47.160 Religion, norms, and standards, that breaks for Republicans.

00:10:52.400 And the group of people that actively support Harris is a pitiable group of people, and it's

00:10:58.180 a shrinking group of people.

00:10:59.420 And everybody knows it.

00:11:00.960 That's why they're laughing.

00:11:02.620 This is pretty high New York society stuff.

00:11:05.680 When Trump was there eight years ago, they didn't like him.

00:11:09.020 This time, they like him.

00:11:10.440 There are a lot of people who hated Trump eight years ago.

00:11:13.140 And this time, they like him.

00:11:14.340 And maybe they still think he's a little rough around the edges.

00:11:16.560 But this time, it's just so clear.

00:11:19.240 Even groups that are traditionally locks for Democrats, she's losing them. 0.67

00:11:25.700 She's losing men.

00:11:27.760 She's losing black men, in particular, if the polls are to be believed.

00:11:31.060 She's even weakening among women. 1.00

00:11:33.860 Why?

00:11:35.100 Because the conditions of the country, reality, right now, is favoring Republicans.

00:11:41.400 There's so much more to say.

00:11:42.860 First, though, go to helixsleep.com slash Knowles.

00:11:46.180 You know, folks, there's nothing quite like a good night's sleep.

00:11:49.420 You can tell that I did not get a good night's sleep on the road last night.

00:11:51.940 It is essential for facing the daily battles against the radical left and their incessant

00:11:56.960 attempts to undermine our beliefs.

00:11:59.560 How can you rest easy when you are tossing and turning on a subpar mattress?

00:12:04.640 That is where helix sleep comes in. 0.76

00:12:06.600 Let me tell you, folks, helix sleep has been a revelation.

00:12:09.740 I've had my helix for four years now.

00:12:11.900 I trust it.

00:12:12.900 Forget about me.

00:12:14.460 I don't mind being uncomfortable.

00:12:16.340 I'd sleep on a pile of rocks.

00:12:17.840 So I like having a luxury mattress.

00:12:19.560 But the way you know how beautiful helix is, is that I gave a helix for my son for it to

00:12:27.260 be his first bed, moving from the crib to the bed.

00:12:30.140 And he absolutely adores it.

00:12:31.580 And I absolutely adore it.

00:12:32.740 And sweet little Alisa absolutely adores it.

00:12:34.680 And they know that you're going to absolutely adore it.

00:12:37.140 That's why they give you a 100-night trial and a 10 to 15-year warranty.

00:12:40.740 Get the best in the business.

00:12:42.800 That is helix sleep.

00:12:44.160 If you are ready to revolutionize your sleep and wake up refreshed to fight the good fight,

00:12:48.640 Helix is offering our listeners 20% off all mattress orders.

00:12:52.280 Go to helixsleep.com slash Knowles, K-N-W-L-E-S, H-E-L-I-X-S-L-E-E-P.com slash K-N-W-L-E-S.

00:13:00.840 With Helix, better sleep starts now.

00:13:05.000 Another way that you might disturb your sleep is to be aware of how much bizarre occult behavior

00:13:11.260 happens today, which if you want to learn about that and a way out of it, check out

00:13:16.020 my interview with John Ramirez, the former Satanist.

00:13:18.960 I came from a family of warlocks and witches.

00:13:21.540 I got the cross upside down here.

00:13:23.020 I got scars here.

00:13:24.140 I have another symbol here that is the 21 rows to the dark side was carved into my flesh

00:13:28.600 that the devil said carved that into him because he's going to be the gatekeeper of the demonic

00:13:33.120 kingdom.

00:13:33.500 When you're buddies with the devil, what are the things that specifically that the devil's

00:13:37.920 telling you?

00:13:39.100 False realities, things that you don't have, things that you want, things that you can't

00:13:44.040 get.

00:13:44.340 And one time the devil was sitting on the passenger seat and he said, there's a guy on the rooftop

00:13:48.540 who grabbed him and sacrificed him for me.

00:13:50.600 I tried to drag him into my apartment.

00:13:52.420 I was half demon possessed.

00:13:53.660 But there was this guy there, the guy who was.

00:13:55.040 Yeah, no, no, real guy, yeah.

00:13:56.100 What happens to get you out of it?

00:13:58.840 Christ.

00:14:03.500 Go check that out on my YouTube channel today.

00:14:10.020 Okay, speaking of New York society events, there was another big New York society political

00:14:16.780 event.

00:14:17.140 That was the funeral of Ethel Kennedy, Mrs. Kennedy, the mother of Bobby Kennedy Jr., who's terrific.

00:14:23.940 He's on our side now.

00:14:25.100 And all the other Kennedys who are less terrific. 0.79

00:14:27.820 But the reason that this became a headline-grabbing event is because Joe Biden,

00:14:33.380 McCain attended and Barack Obama attended.

00:14:35.740 And they were speaking to one another and there were cameras present.

00:14:39.840 So you couldn't hear what they were saying.

00:14:41.160 The New York Post hired a lip reader.

00:14:43.140 We now know what they said.

00:14:44.920 And what they said confirms all of Trump's jokes, namely that the Kamala campaign is a disaster.

00:14:51.040 According to the New York Post professional lip reader, according to the translation, Biden

00:14:57.460 was caught saying to Obama, she's not as strong as me.

00:15:03.500 Then Obama responded, I know that's true.

00:15:09.220 But he added, we have time.

00:15:11.460 And then Biden conceded, maybe.

00:15:13.940 He said, yeah, we'll get it in time.

00:15:16.200 But they don't think they're going to get it in time.

00:15:18.040 Democrats, for the first time this cycle in a really serious way, seem to be resigned

00:15:26.480 to the fact that they really might lose.

00:15:29.140 They have all sorts of ways to rig it.

00:15:31.120 They have all sorts of shenanigans up their sleeves.

00:15:33.400 But this is the first time.

00:15:34.900 I'm down in Miami.

00:15:36.240 I'm here doing some events for Mayflower Cigars, if you're interested.

00:15:39.940 If you're in the Florida area, Mayflower Cigars are at four smoke-in locations here.

00:15:45.160 So you can go get them here, or you can, of course, get them online.

00:15:50.040 But I'm here talking to guys who are generally leaning a little bit more right wing.

00:15:55.000 The cigar culture is about two-thirds to three-quarters conservative.

00:15:57.840 They're liberals who smoke cigars, too.

00:15:59.240 But it's mostly conservative.

00:16:00.860 This is the first time I've been talking to people where they think, you know, we really

00:16:04.400 might win this thing.

00:16:06.460 Even with all the shenanigans, all the rigging, Republicans really might have a chance.

00:16:10.480 Now, the shenanigans are not to be merely dismissed.

00:16:15.780 And I'll give you one example why.

00:16:17.720 Jimmy Carter voted for Kamala Harris.

00:16:21.820 Over the past two days, Jimmy Carter, according to news reports, voted for Kamala.

00:16:27.140 Here's the headline from Axios.

00:16:29.080 Jimmy Carter votes for Kamala Harris weeks after turning 100 years old.

00:16:34.880 Now, you might remember a couple weeks ago, Jimmy Carter turned 100, and his family wheeled

00:16:42.600 him out to see a military flyover.

00:16:45.260 And I don't mean to be rude to President Carter.

00:16:50.800 You know, we're all going in that direction someday.

00:16:54.140 But the man should not have been in public.

00:16:57.520 I think it was a bad decision of his family to bring him in public.

00:17:00.280 He looks like a cadaver.

00:17:01.820 He's not really moving.

00:17:03.100 He doesn't seem to be speaking.

00:17:05.940 He's been in hospice for like a year and a half now or more.

00:17:09.680 He's coming up on two years in hospice.

00:17:11.320 So no knock on him.

00:17:12.460 We're all going that way.

00:17:13.320 He's a tough old guy.

00:17:14.220 But he is not really with it, okay?

00:17:19.540 He does not seem to be moving or talking or really communicating, which raises my question.

00:17:25.600 In what sense did Jimmy Carter vote for Kamala?

00:17:29.820 In what sense?

00:17:30.620 What does it mean?

00:17:31.180 The guy's been in hospice care for two years.

00:17:33.460 What does it mean he voted for Kamala?

00:17:36.060 He can't move.

00:17:36.980 He can't talk.

00:17:37.700 How did he vote for Kamala?

00:17:38.860 I'm sure he would have voted for Kamala.

00:17:40.240 He's a huge lib.

00:17:41.000 He was a Democrat president.

00:17:42.500 I'm sure if he were in command of his faculties, I'm sure he would vote for Kamala.

00:17:47.980 But what do you mean he voted for Kamala?

00:17:49.620 What I suspect happened is a family member of his filled out his ballot on his behalf and voted for Kamala.

00:17:57.160 Now, you might say, all right, Michael, what's the alternative to that?

00:18:02.560 Well, Jimmy Carter's still alive.

00:18:03.760 He is still alive.

00:18:04.460 He's still entitled to all the rights that every living person has.

00:18:07.740 And we know that Democrat voters have the right to vote for many decades after they die.

00:18:13.660 So Jimmy Carter being alive surely has that right.

00:18:16.920 What are we going to do?

00:18:18.060 Maybe this happens for older people sometimes.

00:18:20.660 Maybe it does.

00:18:22.160 My issue isn't with the one vote from Jimmy Carter or the one vote from your grandma,

00:18:28.220 who maybe is not totally in possession of her faculties, but is still going to fill out a ballot anyway.

00:18:34.180 My point is that with widespread mail-in ballots, with mail-in voting and early voting now being the norm rather than the exception,

00:18:44.280 how many votes are being cast by people who are not really all that involved in voting?

00:18:51.120 People in the household where one person just kind of fills it out for everybody.

00:18:54.400 Voting where ballot harvesters show up to apartment buildings or hospice facilities or retirement homes or wherever

00:19:04.940 and just kind of group homes and just kind of fill out the ballots or push people to fill out their ballots in a certain way

00:19:11.440 and then collect their ballots.

00:19:13.680 How many votes are really being filled out by the people who say they're voting?

00:19:17.860 There's really no way to test it.

00:19:19.500 We're not going to go and look at ID cards.

00:19:22.840 And the Democrats say that ID cards are racist anyway.

00:19:26.040 If Jimmy Carter can vote for Kamala Harris after two years in hospice, how else are people voting?

00:19:33.320 I don't know.

00:19:33.860 Call me a crazy conspiracy theorist.

00:19:35.720 I don't think Jimmy Carter filled out that ballot.

00:19:38.280 I don't think anyone really thinks that.

00:19:39.860 Now, speaking of generational change, moving from the elderly to the babies,

00:19:45.280 Joy Reid on MSNBC wants you to know that if you want to have more babies, you are a fascist. 0.99

00:19:54.520 I do believe that this election is a litmus test for American tolerance for fascism.

00:20:00.540 The elements of fascism are rooted in this nationalistic drive for more babies for the state,

00:20:07.940 for a strongman-driven nation, and a deep sort of state-based religiosity.

00:20:14.820 So I do believe we have a media problem, and we do have some of our media that is leading people toward fascism.

00:20:21.680 The question of America has become too soft and feminine.

00:20:26.300 I think that is a fascist litmus test.

00:20:29.980 So this question of whether the society is too soft and feminine, it was alarming to me that a majority of Hispanic Protestants agree, but that's not shocking. 1.00

00:20:40.940 Immigrants are poisoning the blood of the country. 1.00

00:20:43.420 This is one of the most terrifying things that you've heard a presidential candidate say because it is straight out of my confidence.

00:20:49.780 23% of Jewish respondents agree with that because that's straight out Nazi talk. 0.55

00:20:55.240 So all this talk about how we should have a border, that's straight out of Mein Kampf.

00:21:01.200 That's out of Nazi propaganda.

00:21:03.020 All this talk about how America is a little effeminate and maybe we should have some manliness to it, that's also straight out of the Nazi playbook. 0.63

00:21:10.920 And then if you want to have babies, if you think that we shouldn't have a literally dying population, but should at the very least maybe replace ourselves, if you think that we should do the thing that birds do and bees do and even sentimental trees do and get together and get married and have a family, you're a fascist.

00:21:29.920 That means, if you've been keeping a score for the past five or ten years, the okay symbol, that's now a Nazi symbol, and a glass of milk, that's now a Nazi symbol, and now your babies, they themselves are Nazi symbols. 0.58

00:21:49.920 This rant clarified to me, almost all of our social problems come from the fact that people won't have babies anymore.

00:21:59.920 Almost all of our social problems come from the fact that generations ago, people used to have six kids, that was a normal-sized family, seven, eight kids, maybe ten, eleven kids, if you were Catholic or Mormon, Orthodox Jews too.

00:22:14.560 Then it became three or four kids.

00:22:17.820 Then it became maybe two kids.

00:22:20.340 Now millennials don't have kids. 1.00

00:22:22.200 They have fur babies, they have dogs, but they don't have kids.

00:22:27.160 Now there's an antinatalist movement.

00:22:29.360 I'm not just talking about people who struggle with infertility.

00:22:32.500 Obviously, they're not culpable.

00:22:34.500 They're doing everything they can.

00:22:36.720 I'm talking about the people who are actively choosing not to have kids, which is a lot of people.

00:22:42.060 It's the people who are listening to Joy Reid, who say, you want to have kids, you're a Nazi.

00:22:47.460 Why do all the problems stem from this?

00:22:50.300 Because if you don't have kids, then you're going to have economic problems.

00:22:54.760 If your generations don't replace themselves, then pretty quickly you're going to have a problem with GDP. 0.97

00:23:00.640 You're going to have a problem with productivity, which leads you to import a ton of migrants from all over the world. 1.00

00:23:06.520 You import all these migrants, the movement of migrants into the United States in the last 60 years, the greatest movement of people in the history of all of recorded history.

00:23:14.900 That's going to create some social problems because there's no assimilation. 0.58

00:23:19.100 There's no, you're just importing whole new peoples into the country. 1.00

00:23:24.040 Then you add on to that the perpetual adolescence of people who just simply do not want to have children.

00:23:31.600 That perpetual adolescence is going to mean that millennials and soon enough Zoomers are going to be marveled when they do things like adulting, 1.00

00:23:42.080 when they pay their bills or, I don't know, go to the grocery store on their own.

00:23:45.540 They're going to be slow to do the things that your grandparents were doing at age 14 because having kids makes you grow up.

00:23:55.880 It's one of the clearest ways to mature that is available to us.

00:24:02.360 When people don't have kids, what are they going to do?

00:24:03.940 They're going to spend more time screaming and rioting and protesting and agitating in the street.

00:24:10.140 They're going to spend more time in the vice industries.

00:24:12.280 They're going to drink more.

00:24:13.000 They're going to do more drugs. 0.99

00:24:14.040 They're going to do more weird sex stuff. 0.98

00:24:15.240 They're going to, you know, idle hands are the devil's playground.

00:24:18.220 Virtually all of the social problems, I'm not saying every single one, but virtually all of them are coming from the fact that people will not have kids anymore.

00:24:29.480 I am not the one who is observing that that is a political problem.

00:24:34.140 I am also doing that, but Joy Reid is doing it.

00:24:36.260 The left is doing that.

00:24:37.540 The antinatalists, the people who say don't have kids because kids are bad for global warming.

00:24:42.500 The people who say don't have kids because then you won't be able to have as much fun.

00:24:46.720 The people who say don't have kids because you should use contraception when you sleep around and you shouldn't get married anyway.

00:24:53.760 You should just go and have a string of pointless relationships.

00:24:56.700 That's the left that is politicizing the issue.

00:25:01.020 They're politicizing the family because the family is the basic unit of politics. 0.92

00:25:04.320 It is politicized.

00:25:05.520 They recognize the political significance of it.

00:25:08.620 So which side are you on?

00:25:10.180 The side that says babies are nice or the side that says having babies is for fascists?

00:25:15.700 There's so much more to say.

00:25:17.520 First, though, go to dailywire.com slash shop.

00:25:20.960 Are you sick of bland political merchandise?

00:25:24.420 Daily Wire's election collection is here to rescue you from boring bumper stickers.

00:25:51.560 Head on over to dailywire.com slash shop.

00:25:55.180 Now, my favorite comment yesterday is from dimwit0000, who says,

00:26:00.500 Men with cojones vote for Trump.

00:26:02.840 Women with cojones vote for Harris. 1.00

00:26:04.820 So true.

00:26:05.680 That's a great, simple rule of thumb in politics.

00:26:09.000 Now, speaking of things that are fascist and even Nazi, James Carville says that President Trump's decision to hold a rally at Madison Square Garden is reminiscent of the Nazi Party.

00:26:22.720 When I said that, I didn't know that he was going to schedule a rally at Madison Square Garden to mimic the Nazi rally of 10 February 1939.

00:26:33.380 So we have, they're telling you, and by the way, if they win, they're going to correctly say,

00:26:41.060 We told you in the election what we're going to do, and you voted for us, you have green-lighted the whole thing.

00:26:46.660 You, now listen here, you green-lighted.

00:26:49.260 If you go and you show up and you have a political rally, but your name's Donald Trump, you're a Nazi. 0.75

00:26:54.160 Did you know that Donald Trump was drinking water and Hitler drank water? 0.68

00:27:00.760 You're a Nazi.

00:27:01.680 You're a Nazi for, you're a Nazi now for having babies, drinking milk, making the okay sign, and for going to Madison Square Garden. 0.73

00:27:11.080 Now, I guess, I didn't know this, but in 2006, 2007, I went and I saw Billy Joel at Madison Square Garden, and he played the hits, you know, Piano, Man.

00:27:24.900 He didn't play Captain Jack, but I, you know, longest time.

00:27:27.680 And it turns out that it was a Nazi rally.

00:27:30.640 I didn't realize Billy Joel's a Nazi.

00:27:32.440 I'd go, I'd see the Rangers on occasion.

00:27:35.300 Turns out the Rangers are Nazis.

00:27:36.500 This is the most prominent entertainment venue in New York.

00:27:41.080 But because, James Carville's totally right about this, there was, like, a Nazi event there once, back when fascism was a real thing, and there were actually members of fascist parties and Nazi parties.

00:27:55.900 Because of that, now, every event at Madison Square Garden is a Nazi rally? 0.52

00:28:01.260 No.

00:28:02.260 It's when right-wingers do anything.

00:28:04.200 It's not about Madison Square Garden, it's about the right.

00:28:06.400 Anything the right does.

00:28:08.340 Drinking milk, making the okay sign, having babies.

00:28:12.080 Just being, just being themselves, just being, existing.

00:28:16.000 That is for Nazis now. 0.98

00:28:18.200 It seems half-hearted to me, though.

00:28:20.580 When I listen to James Carville, yeah, you go down there, you go, and you drink a glass of milk with the okay sign, you're a Nazi.

00:28:27.960 Or you listen to Joy Reid.

00:28:30.040 Or you listen, I don't know.

00:28:31.380 To me, they all kind of seem like Chuck Schumer at the table right now.

00:28:34.340 They all seem kind of glum.

00:28:36.020 They all seem kind of like, all right, we're desperate.

00:28:40.400 We were desperate to replace our candidate.

00:28:42.140 We replaced our candidate.

00:28:43.100 That didn't work.

00:28:43.800 Then we were desperate, so we're going to get our candidate to finally do some interviews.

00:28:47.100 And then those aren't working.

00:28:48.080 And then we're desperate.

00:28:48.660 And we're going to scrape the bottom of the barrel.

00:28:50.940 And the bottom of the barrel is, we're going to call you all Nazis. 0.87

00:28:53.580 Is that going to work?

00:28:54.780 They don't even seem excited about it.

00:28:57.180 As I said yesterday, it seems like every single political condition right now favors us.

00:29:05.620 Other than the advance of leftism, other than the rigging of the electoral system that began in 2020 in earnest.

00:29:11.760 Otherwise, it seems like every political condition favors us.

00:29:15.180 If we can't win this cycle, I don't know that we can win.

00:29:17.120 Now, I've been meaning to get to the Men for Kamala for days and weeks.

00:29:21.700 And now that President Trump has called them all a bunch of cuckolds, I think this is the perfect opportunity if you somehow missed the Men for Kamala advertisement that made the rounds just two or three days ago.

00:29:34.540 Take a listen.

00:29:35.080 I'm a man.

00:29:37.280 I'm a man.

00:29:38.420 I'm a man, man.

00:29:39.680 And I'm man enough.

00:29:40.860 I'm man enough to enjoy a barrel-proof bourbon.

00:29:43.420 Neat.

00:29:44.140 Man enough to cook my steak rare.

00:29:45.940 Man enough to deadlift 500 and braid the s*** out of my daughter's hair.

00:29:49.940 You think I'm afraid to rebuild a carburetor?

00:29:51.920 I eat carburetors for breakfast.

00:29:53.560 I ain't afraid of bears.

00:29:54.600 That's what bear hugs are for.

00:29:56.200 I'll tell you another thing I sure s*** I'm not afraid of.

00:29:59.240 Women. 0.81

00:30:00.140 I'm not afraid of women. 0.99

00:30:01.640 I'm not afraid of women. 0.99

00:30:02.740 They want to control their bodies? 0.99

00:30:03.960 I say go for it.

00:30:05.520 They want to use IVF to start a family? 1.00

00:30:07.380 I'm not afraid of families.

00:30:08.560 They want to be childless cat ladies? 1.00

00:30:10.240 Have all the cats you want.

00:30:11.800 Woman wants to be president? 1.00

00:30:12.980 Well, I hope she has the guts to look me right in the eye and accept my full-throated endorsement. 1.00

00:30:17.320 And I'm man enough to help them win.

00:30:25.040 So the first time I saw it, I thought, this must be satire.

00:30:30.640 Like, you know, I'm a man for Kamala.

00:30:32.980 And you know what I like?

00:30:34.580 Gelding myself.

00:30:35.600 That's right.

00:30:36.580 You know what I hate?

00:30:38.880 My testosterone and my gonads.

00:30:40.940 That's what I hate.

00:30:41.540 I'm a man for Kamala.

00:30:42.600 It seemed that it was self-conscious about how ridiculous these guys sound.

00:30:48.100 But the more I listened, the more I thought, no, maybe they're serious.

00:30:51.000 There was a, you know what I support?

00:30:53.660 In vitro fertilization and abortion and voting for Kamala. 0.97

00:31:00.040 And so then I thought, maybe, no, maybe they're sincere.

00:31:03.820 They cleared up all doubt when one of those guys went on CNN and explained the advertisement.

00:31:09.400 You know, I come from comedy and comedy comes from juxtaposition.

00:31:12.800 And so to me, I was just riffing with my friends thinking, wouldn't it be funny if you took

00:31:17.860 these ideas of like, so macho, you got to tell everyone how macho you are all the time,

00:31:21.860 masculinity.

00:31:22.280 And what I feel is a more real version of what it means to be a man where, you know,

00:31:27.280 yeah, you cry at a rom-com, you braid your daughter's hair, you go pick up tampons from 0.82

00:31:30.920 the store if someone needs tampons, like, who cares?

00:31:33.260 And so to me, putting those together, but treating it like as if it's a real,

00:31:37.100 you know, rugged man political ad would be funny.

00:31:40.380 And I still think it was funny.

00:31:42.860 I have never purchased tampons.

00:31:45.840 I have never, well, I've been to many drugstores and there is that aisle there in the drugstores.

00:31:50.820 And sometimes I've accidentally started to walk down that aisle.

00:31:54.020 And when that's happened, I will either speed up, try to get out of the aisle,

00:31:56.540 or I'll turn around and I'll go to a different aisle.

00:32:00.620 These guys, I think this is a product of our social media age where there's the breakdown

00:32:09.180 of a common culture and people are just living in their little bubbles and their little tiny

00:32:13.680 circles.

00:32:14.700 This guy, the most offensive thing about the Men for Kamala advertisement is that these guys

00:32:20.640 really think it's normal.

00:32:22.920 These guys really think, yeah, you know, like they're making a joke about being extremely

00:32:30.100 manly and masculine.

00:32:31.500 They're self-aware enough of that joke, but they're not self-aware enough to realize that

00:32:35.980 the things they're actually advocating are ridiculous.

00:32:38.540 Yeah, I think fathers should braid their daughter's hair and buy tampons at the store and go support 0.73

00:32:48.360 in vitro fertilization and abortion and then go vote for Kamala. 1.00

00:32:52.140 Wouldn't that be so cool, guys?

00:32:55.440 They sincerely think that.

00:32:58.360 And I'm sure those guys, when he says, I come from comedy, I don't know what that means.

00:33:02.720 Probably he hangs out with a bunch of guys who took an improv class or something in L.A.

00:33:07.000 I assume they're from blue states.

00:33:08.980 And these guys really do only hang out with guys who braid girls' hair and purchase tampons.

00:33:14.960 I mean, the vice presidential nominee, Kamala's running mate, put tampons in an elementary school

00:33:21.280 boys' bathroom.

00:33:22.620 In all of the elementary school boys' bathrooms in Minnesota.

00:33:25.680 These are guys who really believe that it is normal to sit around and drink kombucha and

00:33:32.300 talk about your wife's boyfriend and go buy tampons and all the rest of it. 1.00

00:33:36.540 They think it's normal because they're living in a little bubble in their own little echo

00:33:39.800 chamber.

00:33:40.420 They don't realize how bizarre this is playing in Peoria.

00:33:45.100 It reminds me of a very prominent left-wing communist activist, Antonio Gramsci, who was

00:33:51.300 an Italian communist who inspired a lot of the communists, and neo-communists, cultural

00:33:57.200 Marxists, all of the people who in the middle of the 20th century, specifically with the rise

00:34:04.400 of the new left, were inspired by the Marxist tradition.

00:34:08.880 Antonio Gramsci said, if you want to have a successful revolution, you have to hold on

00:34:12.240 to the common sense.

00:34:13.460 You can't lose the common sense of the people.

00:34:15.800 Because then you're going to have all these radical revolutionaries with all of their

00:34:20.560 theories, and they're going to try to whip up the masses into a revolutionary frenzy, 0.85

00:34:25.780 and the masses of people are going to say, yeah, no thanks.

00:34:28.540 We like our communities.

00:34:29.700 We like our standards.

00:34:31.100 We like our norms.

00:34:33.100 We like our way of life.

00:34:34.880 We don't want your stupid theories.

00:34:36.400 Now, the most prominent man for Kamala, Tim Walz, actually has the audacity to accuse

00:34:47.360 J.D.

00:34:47.960 Vance of cosplaying, of cosplaying as a cowboy.

00:34:52.820 The party that enshrines as a civil right, putting on a silly costume and pretending to 0.87

00:34:59.000 be something you're not, has the audacity to accuse another man of cosplaying.

00:35:02.320 But we don't have time to get to it right now, so that's my little tease.

00:35:04.380 We'll get to it on Monday.

00:35:05.100 Hopefully, my voice has recovered from whatever this is.

00:35:09.180 I don't think it's just the cigars.

00:35:10.380 I smoke a lot of cigars regularly.

00:35:11.540 I think it's, I don't know.

00:35:13.680 It's because I'm too jubilant.

00:35:15.820 I think it's because I'm screaming for joy at the possibility that President Trump really

00:35:21.280 might pull this one out, that the Democrats really might be going down.

00:35:25.180 Some joy.

00:35:26.060 Maybe it's because I was laughing so raucously at Matt's new movie, Am I Racist?

00:35:30.720 In just 10 days, Matt Walsh's hit comedy, Am I Racist, is coming home to Daily Wire+.

00:36:30.120 Take it away.

00:36:31.720 Hey, Michael.

00:36:32.900 Got a good hypothetical for you.

00:36:34.320 Would you, for $10 million tax-free, punch the ticket for Kamala Harris?

00:36:41.300 A good hypothetical is supposed to make you teeter on the fence on which way to go.

00:36:46.860 So if that didn't do it, same thing, for $10 million, punch the ticket for Kamala, but 0.99

00:36:54.160 it's guaranteed Trump's going to win.

00:36:57.120 Thanks, buddy.

00:37:00.320 Yeah, for sure.

00:37:02.140 Duh.

00:37:02.860 You think I'm stupid?

00:37:04.200 Of course I would.

00:37:05.540 You just said a good hypothetical makes you teeter on the fence.

00:37:08.020 I'm not teetering on the fence for one nanosecond.

00:37:11.920 Yeah, of course I would.

00:37:13.500 Especially because of how you clarified at the end.

00:37:15.360 You said, guaranteed Trump wins.

00:37:17.440 Would you punch the ticket for Kamala?

00:37:19.340 You get $10 million.

00:37:22.080 What's the catch?

00:37:23.880 Yeah, of course I would.

00:37:25.360 Why?

00:37:25.640 I guess the question is, why would anyone teeter on the fence?

00:37:30.400 I'm not saying I'd sell you my vote in that I'd sell you my integrity and I'd go work for

00:37:36.040 people that I disagree with and I'd go advance a political cause that I think is bad.

00:37:39.780 I'm not saying any of that.

00:37:40.840 You just said, guaranteed Trump wins.

00:37:44.560 And even further, you could say, look, if you live in a solidly red state, one person

00:37:48.120 doing that doesn't actually change the vote at all.

00:37:49.960 The reason that you're even suggesting, that's a morally difficult conundrum, is because you

00:37:58.320 are viewing the vote, as a lot of liberals view the vote, and many conservatives view the

00:38:04.600 vote too, as some good in and of itself, as some kind of holy act, some kind of sacrament.

00:38:10.520 I don't think the vote is some holy act.

00:38:12.160 I don't think it's a particularly good thing in itself.

00:38:14.180 It can be good, but if it's good, it is good instrumentally.

00:38:19.420 The only reason that voting is good, or can be good, is if it gives you good government.

00:38:26.980 If it is conducive to the common good and the flourishing of the polity.

00:38:31.020 But that's it.

00:38:31.560 It's just for that.

00:38:33.400 So if I know, if I know Trump is guaranteed to win and voting is just, I don't know,

00:38:38.740 some little recreational activity that we're going to partake of today.

00:38:41.700 Yeah, sure.

00:38:42.740 I'll write a Mickey Mouse if you want for $10 million.

00:38:44.960 Why not?

00:38:45.640 The common good is not harmed.

00:38:48.100 Voting is not an intrinsically morally significant act if it is disconnected from the way the

00:38:54.120 government actually is to be selected and to operate.

00:38:56.860 And I could do a lot with $10 million.

00:38:58.680 So yeah, easy.

00:39:00.500 No question.

00:39:01.280 Next one.

00:39:02.700 Hi, Michael.

00:39:03.540 Happy Friday.

00:39:04.660 My husband and I are approaching our two-year anniversary.

00:39:07.480 And although we're really excited, this will also be the two-year marker of us trying to

00:39:11.380 conceive.

00:39:12.440 It's been an emotional rollercoaster for me, but my husband has been incredibly supportive

00:39:16.220 this entire time.

00:39:18.020 My first question is, what are some ways that I can best support him?

00:39:21.980 My second question, how can I carry my cross well?

00:39:25.480 Growing up, my dad would always tell me to offer it up.

00:39:28.080 But I've always wondered, does uniting my suffering to Christ mean that I can't cry or

00:39:32.180 be sad?

00:39:33.260 Thank you for your insight.

00:39:34.500 Well, I'm terribly sorry to hear about that.

00:39:40.100 That's really an awful thing.

00:39:41.460 In fact, I know a little bit what you're going through because my wife and I, for the first

00:39:46.420 two years of our marriage, struggled to have our first kid.

00:39:50.200 So I know it's brutal.

00:39:52.160 And if people have not gone through it, it's very difficult to understand how brutal that

00:39:58.140 is, especially on the woman.

00:39:59.340 A little bit on the guy, too.

00:40:00.120 But especially on the woman.

00:40:03.840 So first of all, the sky is not necessarily falling down on you.

00:40:10.020 I know it's awful, but it took us two years.

00:40:14.220 You could very easily, or it's very easy to imagine that you would become pregnant at any

00:40:20.340 moment, today, tomorrow.

00:40:21.860 There are certain treatments you can engage in.

00:40:24.660 Some probably you would say are bioethically unacceptable.

00:40:27.940 And I would agree with that, like in vitro fertilization or, you know, all the rest.

00:40:32.640 But there are other things you could do.

00:40:34.240 My wife ended up, I think she got like one shot or a series of shots of some chemical or

00:40:38.900 hormone or something for a week and that it was all fine.

00:40:41.680 So you could do, you could try something like that.

00:40:43.660 You could go meet with a specialist.

00:40:44.880 Maybe you're already doing that.

00:40:46.460 That's not really your question.

00:40:48.200 Your question is, how do you carry that cross?

00:40:51.080 Is it okay to cry?

00:40:52.020 It's okay to cry.

00:40:52.780 Like, if you're a woman, certainly, but even if you're a man, on rare occasions, it's okay

00:40:58.620 to cry, you can, you can be sad, but, but also you should offer it up.

00:41:06.260 You know, I mean, Jesus wept, right?

00:41:09.140 When you say offer it up, unite your suffering to the cross.

00:41:11.780 Jesus wept.

00:41:12.460 It's the shortest line in the Bible.

00:41:14.060 So you can, but don't, don't dwell on your suffering as it pertains to you.

00:41:23.260 Don't, don't dwell on your misfortune.

00:41:25.560 You have many blessings, obviously.

00:41:27.960 And so you should focus on those things and you should focus on the activity of attempting

00:41:33.060 to conceive if that's what you'd like to do.

00:41:35.000 And then you can focus on other ways if, if somehow you can't conceive and I don't know,

00:41:41.120 you know, you could adopt, if you can't adopt, you can focus on the other ways in which you

00:41:44.920 can, uh, offer up the, uh, offer up of yourself for others and take on some kind of role of,

00:41:52.260 of motherhood and, uh, guidance of others.

00:41:55.840 Uh, there's, there's no good that will come of focusing on your own misery because that,

00:42:03.240 that will make you resentful.

00:42:04.340 But if you just are a little bit sad sometimes, that's okay.

00:42:08.960 You can be sad.

00:42:09.880 Just, uh, don't, don't despair.

00:42:11.420 You know, as long as your sadness still has a, has an aspect of hope to it, hope, which

00:42:16.040 is a theological virtue and a commandment.

00:42:17.940 I think that, that, that's perfectly acceptable.

00:42:20.740 But keep, keep hope because, uh, there's, there is very likely a way or very possibly a

00:42:26.480 way out of your present predicament.

00:42:27.880 But ultimately, God orders the universe for his ends and his ends are good.

00:42:33.040 So ultimately it will be good.

00:42:34.460 You can, you can have confidence in that, not just as a little soft soap and wishful thinking,

00:42:38.480 but, but as a fact.

00:42:39.900 Next question.

00:42:41.400 Hi, Michael.

00:42:42.040 I really love your show and I'm going to try to make this shorter.

00:42:45.300 So maybe you can use it.

00:42:47.800 Um, so basically I have three kiddos.

00:42:51.300 One of them is, you know, he's 11.

00:42:54.160 He can't control his body, his movements, sometimes his voice, things like that.

00:42:59.400 And that can make it really hard at church.

00:43:01.320 And we've had some experiences where we weren't welcome at church, but it's so important for

00:43:06.540 him to, to have that relationship with his community and with Jesus.

00:43:12.020 I mean, that's the only way he's, he's going to thrive and overcome because that's what God

00:43:18.280 created him to be as an overcomer.

00:43:19.720 So I just wanted your thoughts on special needs, kids and individuals in church services.

00:43:29.280 Um, thank you so much.

00:43:32.680 Yeah.

00:43:33.100 Bring them to church.

00:43:34.080 Simple.

00:43:34.760 This is another one like the, would you take 10 million bucks to vote for Kamala if there 0.95

00:43:37.740 were no consequence to it?

00:43:40.140 Yeah.

00:43:40.620 Bring them to church.

00:43:41.280 Of course, bring them to church.

00:43:42.780 If some guy's going to make a nasty comment or look at you, tell him to go pound sand.

00:43:46.840 But you can do it in a really nice charitable, you know, sort of collegial way, but no, the

00:43:51.740 kid should be at church.

00:43:52.540 Of course, especially that kid should be at church.

00:43:56.580 That's just a more extreme version of the typical question that crops up in modernity

00:44:01.840 where children are a rarity, which is, should I bring my crying toddler, my whining child to

00:44:09.560 church?

00:44:10.620 Yeah.

00:44:11.380 If the parish ain't crying, it's dying, buddy.

00:44:13.420 Of course you should bring them to church.

00:44:14.800 I don't even like the idea of a, of a cry room or a special place that's hermetically

00:44:20.580 sealed where people who make noises or little babies or whatever can, can be walled off.

00:44:26.920 No, bring them into church.

00:44:28.400 Obviously, if there's a particular outburst, maybe you got to walk over to the side or down

00:44:33.160 the stairs a little.

00:44:34.260 But if it's just a little bit of noise from a condition that your, your child or really

00:44:40.300 all little babies can't control, you forget about that. 0.99

00:44:42.940 Maybe tell some of your fellow congregation to remember what church is.

00:44:50.460 You know, marriage, family is a symbol of Christ's love for his church.

00:44:54.740 It's the mystical body of Christ with all of us.

00:44:57.400 It's not so that you can wear your favorite suit on Sunday and sit really quietly and rigidly

00:45:01.900 and then go out and eat eggs afterward.

00:45:03.040 It's about communing with God.

00:45:06.640 It's about worshiping God.

00:45:08.360 It's about the holy sacrifice of the mass.

00:45:10.640 It's about the graces that abound.

00:45:14.040 It's, it's, it's, it's about the people who need God most.

00:45:18.600 Being able to go there and to witness the sacrifice.

00:45:21.520 Forget about those guys.

00:45:22.540 Next one.

00:45:22.880 Hey Michael, this is Daniel.

00:45:25.900 I'm 18 and unlike many of my friends, I never dated in high school.

00:45:29.480 Not out of my own choosing, but because my feelings were never reciprocated.

00:45:33.260 I'm tired of hearing cheesy phrases like be content with being single before starting

00:45:38.000 a relationship.

00:45:38.980 As this feels empty and generally comes from people who aren't single.

00:45:43.100 In Genesis, God says it's not good for a man to be alone, but that's what I am.

00:45:46.580 Alone.

00:45:47.700 My efforts to start a relationship with someone have led to nowhere.

00:45:50.940 I'm tired of feeling lonely, but I don't know what to do.

00:45:54.360 I figured I'd ask you for advice on how to handle where God has me currently.

00:45:58.200 Thanks.

00:46:00.280 Really good question.

00:46:01.340 Sorry to hear you're, you're feeling lonely.

00:46:03.060 I think probably most people feel lonely these days, so you're at least lonely together.

00:46:09.060 I'm glad to hear you say, I'm sick of hearing platitudes about how I need to be comfortable

00:46:14.120 being single before I can start a relationship.

00:46:16.840 No, that's liberal modern propaganda.

00:46:18.700 That's a bunch of claptrap.

00:46:20.580 As you say, man is not meant to be alone.

00:46:23.980 We know who we are.

00:46:25.580 We know our identity in relation to others, ultimately in relation to God.

00:46:30.440 But it's not just about you, you, you, me, me, me, your own individual choices.

00:46:33.740 Even in your most quiet hour, when you are most seemingly alone, you are in relationship

00:46:38.560 with God.

00:46:40.000 So yeah, forget about that.

00:46:41.120 I think it's good for people to be in relationships for a long time.

00:46:43.920 You know, I married my high school sweetheart.

00:46:45.800 I think shared experience is a lot.

00:46:48.500 It helps mold you.

00:46:50.020 It helps you to become who you really are as a person.

00:46:53.060 There's got to be, to use the phrase of Fulton Sheen, three to get married.

00:46:56.200 You both have to have reference to God and a relationship with God.

00:47:02.220 And for the people who are listening who are secular or otherwise non-religious, substitute

00:47:07.760 out the word God for a description of God, which is the truth.

00:47:12.520 The two of you have to be in constant relationship with the truth, because the truth is objective

00:47:19.740 and real and will ground you and help you grow together.

00:47:25.200 It will help you to grow toward each other, but also to grow toward God, toward becoming

00:47:31.220 the people that you want to be.

00:47:33.360 So what do you do about being lonely?

00:47:35.340 Well, you go figure out a way to get a girlfriend. 0.99

00:47:37.060 That's how you do it.

00:47:38.500 Maybe you want to be celibate.

00:47:40.680 Maybe you want religious life, and so you want to mitigate your loneliness directly through

00:47:46.260 a relationship with God.

00:47:47.200 That doesn't sound like what you're talking about here, though.

00:47:48.900 It sounds like you want a girlfriend.

00:47:50.020 Okay, go get a girlfriend. 0.99

00:47:51.160 How are you going to get a girlfriend?

00:47:52.380 Well, where do people meet people?

00:47:55.020 They meet people, well, you could meet people at church.

00:47:57.820 You know you're going to share your beliefs with people there.

00:48:01.500 Or you could ask your friends and relatives, hey, set me up with somebody.

00:48:04.840 Or you could go to a bar.

00:48:06.440 You know, plenty of people have met at bars.

00:48:07.600 I don't know that it's a little hit or miss.

00:48:10.680 Sure, you could be on the apps.

00:48:12.540 I think there are good ways to deal with the dating apps.

00:48:15.740 Wouldn't be my preference, but we live in modernity.

00:48:17.480 That's one way to do it.

00:48:19.220 You could go join a club.

00:48:21.940 You go to the places where you meet girls.

00:48:25.840 That's what you do.

00:48:27.060 No, don't just wait around and say, oh, I'm going to figure out how great it is to be single

00:48:31.240 before, and I'm going to be my own perfect individual before I go.

00:48:33.900 No, forget about that.

00:48:34.780 Go meet a girl. 0.85

00:48:35.340 It's fun to date people.

00:48:36.800 So go do that.

00:48:38.300 It's okay.

00:48:38.760 You could do that.

00:48:39.300 What, you're not confident enough?

00:48:40.920 All right, well, work on that a little.

00:48:42.580 I don't know.

00:48:43.020 Go figure out how to comb your hair right. 0.56

00:48:46.080 Recognize that if you want to be impressive to women, it's not, don't focus on yourself 0.94

00:48:49.440 and all the things you're going to say and all the little tricks you're going to pull

00:48:54.420 out.

00:48:55.000 You want to know how to impress women? 1.00

00:48:57.500 Focus on them.

00:48:58.240 This is true just in general.

00:49:00.900 You have a happier life.

00:49:01.880 You focus on the other person, what interests you about that person, how you can help that
