00:00:18.700 Take a look at the trailer for Am I Racist Now.

00:00:21.720 What do you feel in your body when you hear the term white people?

00:00:27.380 Oh.

00:00:28.160 I feel like a cringe about it.

00:00:30.140 I'm just a white, straight, cisgender man. It's the top of the pile.

00:00:33.560 I'm on the top of the pile. It's me.

00:00:35.240 Yeah.

00:00:36.200 Can I just propose a toast? Raise a glass if you're racist. To racist. 0.96

00:00:41.160 That was really weird. 0.95

00:00:42.840 Don't deny that you're racist. Try not to be racist, but also don't realize that you're... 0.55

00:00:46.840 Until we're willing to talk about these things, healing can't really begin.

00:00:49.680 My daughter's four years old. She's still watching Disney movies and choosing a white princess. 0.99

00:00:53.960 Have you talked to her about that?

00:00:54.920 All the time.

00:00:55.540 Is racism inherent to whiteness?

00:00:58.180 Yes.

00:00:58.600 Yep.

00:00:59.040 Yeah, probably.

00:00:59.760 Well, yeah.

00:01:00.840 Joining us now is Matt, certified DEI expert.

00:01:04.280 Did race exist as a reality before?

00:01:06.200 We made race exist.

00:01:07.680 Does that make sense?

00:01:08.500 It does make sense.

00:01:09.560 What do you mean?

00:01:10.260 What you're doing is you're stretching out of your whiteness. 0.71

00:01:13.780 This is more for you than this for you.

00:01:15.780 Am I Racist?

00:01:17.260 Now streaming only on Daily Wire Plus.

00:01:20.260 Rated PG-13.

00:01:21.260 With five days until the election, Colorado's Democrat Secretary of State is in hot water for

00:01:26.960 posting voting system passwords to her office's website.

00:01:31.360 Just five days after the ballots of a dozen Colorado voters were taken before they arrived

00:01:37.280 at the voters' homes and cast without the voters' knowledge.

00:01:39.860 We have got the latest shenanigans, polls, and last-minute endorsements in the home stretch.

00:01:45.960 I'm Michael Knowles.

00:01:46.660 This is The Michael Knowles Show.

00:01:47.480 Welcome back to the show. 0.98

00:02:07.640 President Trump is driving a garbage truck. 0.99

00:02:09.440 Just, what, one or two days after Joe Biden called Trump supporters garbage, President 1.00

00:02:15.460 Trump throws on the sanitation worker vest, drives the garbage truck. 0.99

00:02:21.780 It is magnificent.

00:02:23.520 There's so much more to say.

00:02:24.820 First, though, go to balanceofnature.com.

00:02:27.280 Use promo code Knowles.

00:02:53.500 And I'll tell you, as someone who's on the road a fair bit, especially around election season,

00:02:57.300 it is very good to be able to get your fruits and veggies when otherwise you're just eating,

00:03:02.800 you know, fast food or whatever.

00:03:04.000 It's really good.

00:03:05.100 The only thing I would warn you against is leaving them out for the producers to just

00:03:09.200 kind of steal.

00:03:09.780 But that can give you your exercise when you have to fend them off.

00:03:28.620 There is a new ad out.

00:03:30.700 We'll get to the garbage truck.

00:03:32.160 We'll get to the shenanigans.

00:03:33.540 We'll get to the dubious election practices.

00:03:36.760 But I want to just get to what the Democrats are doing, the Kamala campaign and the affiliated

00:03:42.080 groups.

00:03:42.760 They are running an ad right now that to me sums up the whole liberal project.

00:03:47.000 This is an ad narrated by actress Julia Roberts telling women how to vote with the specific

00:03:56.640 angle that women should divide their households and disobey their husbands. 1.00

00:04:04.000 Your turn, honey.

00:04:05.840 In the one place in America where women still have a right to choose, you can vote any way 1.00

00:04:13.620 you want.

00:04:17.000 And no one will ever know.

00:04:21.140 Did you make the right choice?

00:04:22.640 Sure did, honey.

00:04:23.920 Remember, what happens in the booth stays in the booth.

00:04:27.860 Vote Harris Walls.

00:04:29.460 Vote Common Good is responsible for the contents of this ad.

00:04:32.900 Vote Common Good.

00:04:34.820 This is one of the groups supporting Harris.

00:04:36.580 Narrated by Julia Roberts.

00:04:37.860 Obviously, they got some money here.

00:04:39.080 They got some connections.

00:04:39.880 These people hate family so much that the core message of their political ad is, hey, women, 1.00

00:04:50.600 don't you just hate your husbands? 1.00

00:04:52.160 Your stupid, oppressive husband with that dumb smirk on his face. 1.00

00:04:57.000 There at the end of the ad, that big, fat, dumb, awful, terrible, oppressive husband who asked if you voted the right way. 1.00

00:05:04.260 Oh, you tell him you did vote the right way, but you lie to him. 0.99

00:05:07.620 You insinuate that you voted for Trump, but you voted for Kamala.

00:05:11.180 You're not going to take his oppression anymore.

00:05:13.280 That's right.

00:05:14.040 We need division right through the fundamental political unit, the family.

00:05:18.960 That's right.

00:05:19.780 One place left in America where women can still choose. 1.00

00:05:25.860 This is the right to choose that is used as a euphemism for abortion.

00:05:30.340 Abortion, which unfortunately is still legal basically everywhere in America.

00:05:34.320 Women can kill their babies up until the moment of birth or even afterward in a lot of the country. 1.00

00:05:37.780 But in the voting booth, you can choose, that's right, to finally stick it to your husband, your fat, stupid husband. 1.00

00:05:44.200 Don't you hate him so much? 1.00

00:05:47.800 If your political activism primarily seeks to undermine your husband, you have deeper problems than the next election.

00:05:58.500 If your view of politics in society primarily is an opposition to your husband, your beloved, your other half, your complement in the fundamental unit of society,

00:06:17.600 you have bigger problems than Kamala's business regulations or whatever.

00:06:24.860 This is really disordered.

00:06:26.860 I'm not saying you have to agree with your spouse on every single issue.

00:06:31.200 I'm not saying you have to vote exactly the same way on every single issue.

00:06:35.300 But if you view politics as finally an outlet to undermine my spouse and totally negate the views and desires of my spouse,

00:06:48.860 there's something that's gone wrong in your marriage.

00:06:52.380 Why do you disagree so fundamentally?

00:06:55.040 Why are you seeking to undermine the other in the other's pursuit of the common good in society?

00:07:01.840 Something's wrong with that.

00:07:03.380 But this is par for the course for Democrats who have hated family for a very, very long time.

00:07:09.320 And Democrats have pursued policies effectively that have convinced people not to get married or to redefine marriage or to pit women in opposition to men to create a gender war.

00:07:22.200 We used to say there will never be a war between the sexes because everyone's sleeping with the enemy. 0.80

00:07:25.360 These days, I'm actually not so sure that's true.

00:07:27.040 Then if people do get married, Democrats pursue policies to kill the fruit of that marriage, the babies that are conceived, and so on and so forth. 1.00

00:07:35.880 And now they say, use your vote to finally stick it to that jerk you're married to. 1.00

00:07:40.900 That's their politics. 1.00

00:07:42.820 That's what their politics is about.

00:07:45.900 Division and chaos and antipathy between the sexes and even between people who are supposed to be so in love that their love actually bears fruit.

00:07:53.560 And then antipathy toward that fruit of that supposed love, fruit which shall then be killed, as the very thesis of that ad.

00:08:03.880 Because they're talking about abortion in particular.

00:08:06.920 Deep problems.

00:08:08.060 This is a sickness. 1.00

00:08:08.920 Julia Roberts is a sick person. 1.00

00:08:11.020 She is. 1.00

00:08:12.160 I don't think I'm overstating it one little bit. 0.96

00:08:14.120 That's sick. 1.00

00:08:15.400 The Democrats are sick people, if that's their view. 0.99

00:08:18.200 Now, speaking of women threatening the integrity of our political order, the Colorado Secretary of State, Jenna Griswold, has just gotten into a little bit of hot water for posting voter system passwords. 1.00

00:08:34.240 On her office's website.

00:08:36.740 This is from NBC9 News, a local affiliate.

00:08:40.220 Two days ago, in a statement to 9 News, a spokesperson for the Colorado Secretary of State's office said that, quote,

00:08:46.260 The department is working to remedy this situation where necessary, so they're admitting this is happening.

00:08:51.500 The department took immediate action as soon as it was aware of this and informed the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, CISA,

00:08:58.020 which closely monitors and protects the country's essential security infrastructure.

00:09:01.980 Okay, but the passwords to the voting system machines were up for who knows how long.

00:09:11.680 But we're told electronic voting is totally secure.

00:09:14.980 We're told there's no threat here whatsoever.

00:09:17.200 That's bad enough.

00:09:19.400 But then when you figure out that this scandal, which broke two days ago, follows a scandal five days earlier, so seven days ago,

00:09:29.100 NBC9 News reports again,

00:09:30.740 A criminal investigation is underway after the ballots of about a dozen voters in Mesa County were intercepted and cast without the voters' knowledge, Colorado Secretary of State Jenna Griswold said.

00:09:40.600 The ballots, which never made it to the voters' homes, were filled out, sealed in the ballot envelope, signed, and returned through a postal box.

00:09:46.700 So they caught, we know for a fact, because of widespread mail-ins, which is the policy that the Democrats forced upon us using COVID as an excuse,

00:09:56.780 we know for a fact that a dozen voters didn't get their ballots, those ballots were intercepted, filled out on the voters' behalf, and submitted.

00:10:05.280 Those ballots might well be counted in the election.

00:10:07.920 Do you think it's just a dozen?

00:10:11.860 A dozen is what we know about.

00:10:13.900 A dozen is what got caught.

00:10:15.200 You think it's just a dozen in Colorado?

00:10:16.780 You think this is just happening in Colorado?

00:10:19.080 No way.

00:10:20.220 Widespread mail-ins are insecure.

00:10:22.740 This is why, in years past, both Democrats and Republicans agreed they should not be permitted.

00:10:28.440 This is why the Pennsylvania state constitution did not permit them.

00:10:32.480 And the Democrats forced them upon us in 2020 in violation of that state constitution.

00:10:39.240 This is why electronic voting is vulnerable, because the passwords can be posted online.

00:10:45.120 We don't know anything about it.

00:10:46.100 We don't know if they were hacked into.

00:10:47.180 We just don't know.

00:10:48.600 We just don't know.

00:10:49.560 So the situation is so egregious that the Colorado Secretary of State, the official in charge of the elections,

00:10:54.420 went on a news show and was asked, even with our liberal news apparatus, if she's going to resign. 0.97

00:11:02.480 A final question.

00:11:03.740 This is not the first time that your office has made mistakes that have damaged voters' confidence in our elections.

00:11:10.440 In 2022, your office sent out mailers to 30,000 non-citizens, inviting them to register to vote.

00:11:17.600 They, of course, are not eligible to register to vote.

00:11:20.340 That same year, your office used Colorado's ballot tracking system to send messages to specific Coloradans,

00:11:26.080 encouraging them to vote, when in fact they had already voted, causing confusion that had to be cleaned up by the county clerks.

00:11:32.480 And now this leak of the voting system passwords.

00:11:36.020 Given your office's repeated errors that have damaged confidence in our elections, which you say is paramount, will you resign?

00:11:43.240 Absolutely not, Kyle.

00:11:48.080 And I just want to, you're unfairly characterizing and leaving out some crucial information.

00:11:56.160 Absolutely not.

00:11:57.060 I will not resign because I don't feel the need to face any accountability for any of my incompetence. 0.97

00:12:02.080 This woman is so obviously incompetent. 1.00

00:12:04.580 She's so obviously unfit for her job. 1.00

00:12:07.060 But she won't resign.

00:12:08.460 And you know why she won't resign?

00:12:10.620 Because the Democrats do not disapprove of her apparent incompetence.

00:12:16.880 The incompetence is the point.

00:12:19.240 The inefficiency is the point.

00:12:21.840 The insecurity, the vulnerability is the point.

00:12:25.500 I mentioned on the show yesterday, by any objective measure, our elections are less secure today than they were five, six years ago, before the Democrats changed the rules.

00:12:37.120 Our elections are less secure today because of the ubiquity of the mail-in ballots and the ballot drop boxes and election day turning into election season and the electronic voting machines that create at least vulnerabilities, if not outright fraud.

00:12:53.880 They just, in the system itself, I'm not saying it's any particular person, I'm not saying it's any particular organization, I'm just saying the system itself is more vulnerable.

00:13:04.860 The elections are less secure today.

00:13:08.800 Why did Democrats change all those rules? 1.00

00:13:11.760 The only conclusion I can come to is they like it that way.

00:13:17.540 The Democrats don't really mind that those dozen ballots went missing.

00:13:22.500 Who do you think the missing ballots benefited, Democrats or Republicans?

00:13:27.400 If they benefited anyone, I think most of us would agree it's probably Democrats.

00:13:33.420 Democrats are better at ballot harvesting. 0.78

00:13:35.520 Democrats are better at stuffing voting boxes.

00:13:38.060 Republicans, when we want to gain an advantage in elections, we purge the voter rolls of ineligible voters.

00:13:46.200 Then the Democrats whine about that and say we're kicking eligible voters off the rolls, but we're not.

00:13:51.300 We're kicking people who should not vote off the rolls.

00:13:54.120 When Democrats want to cheat in elections, Democrats stuff the ballot boxes.

00:13:58.300 LBJ talked about this.

00:14:00.220 FDR insinuated this.

00:14:01.740 This has been going on for a really long time.

00:14:03.540 So no, she's not going to be fired.

00:14:05.360 She's doing her job.

00:14:06.820 Her job is to make the elections less secure. 1.00

00:14:09.460 There's so much more to say.

00:14:10.480 First, though, go to goodranchers.com, code Knowles.

00:14:13.620 You know what I had for dinner last night?

00:14:15.420 I'll tell you what I had.

00:14:16.420 I had a juicy and delicious bone-in ribeye steak from Good Ranchers.

00:14:20.760 And sweet little Alisa cooked it perfectly. 0.91

00:14:22.960 And my boys had already eaten dinner.

00:14:24.880 I got home a little bit later.

00:14:26.340 I pull up a little snack tray while they're playing in the family room.

00:14:29.380 I start to eat my steak.

00:14:30.520 And then my two-year-old walks up.

00:14:31.740 He goes, Dada, one steak.

00:14:34.800 Dada, give me steak. 0.97

00:14:35.960 And then I had to feed him my steak.

00:14:37.580 But I still got a little bit of my steak, which was good.

00:14:39.320 I wish I had.

00:14:39.760 I have to start cooking, too, bone-in T-bones.

00:14:41.660 The Good Ranchers meats are absolutely on another level.

00:14:45.080 You're never going to get meat like this anywhere else.

00:14:47.540 And now Good Ranchers created a groundbreaking innovation that is seed oil-free chicken nuggets.

00:14:53.680 No other nuggets on the market here or abroad guarantee a pure seed oil-free recipe.

00:14:57.860 These guys are just out of control, okay?

00:15:00.200 Also, they're running their presidential promo for a limited time.

00:15:03.360 You get a free add-on to your order for four years until the next presidential election.

00:15:08.840 That includes free plain chicken breast, Angus ground beef, applewood smoked bacon, or wild-caught salmon in every order for four years.

00:15:16.720 This is outrageous.

00:15:17.820 Right now, go to GoodRanchers.com, promo code Knowles.

00:15:29.380 Speaking of women who've made poor choices, Stevie Nicks has just come out. 1.00

00:15:34.680 Stevie Nicks, you know, she's the singer from Fleetwood Mac.

00:15:36.720 She just came out to reveal that she had an abortion. 1.00

00:15:43.380 Some people knew she'd had an abortion early on. 1.00

00:15:45.460 But she has exposed this to a wider audience, and she's excused her abortion, an election where abortion's a big issue, on the grounds that had she not had her abortion, she might not have been able to tour quite as much with Fleetwood Mac.

00:16:02.780 I'm like, this can't be happening.

00:16:05.880 Fleetwood Mac is three years in, and it's big.

00:16:09.380 And we're going into our third album.

00:16:11.860 It was like, oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

00:16:14.620 It would have destroyed Fleetwood Mac.

00:16:17.040 If you had a baby.

00:16:18.800 Absolutely.

00:16:19.920 Because many reasons.

00:16:21.580 I would have, like, tried my best to get through, you know, being in the studio every single day, expecting a child.

00:16:29.360 But mostly, having a child with Don Henley would not have gone over big in Fleetwood Mac with Lindsay and me, who we'd been broken up for two or three years.

00:16:42.080 It would have been a nightmare scenario for me to live through.

00:16:47.420 Would have been a nightmare.

00:16:49.340 She became pregnant with Don Henley's child, Don Henley from the Eagles.

00:16:54.360 But, you know, she had dated her bandmate, and they broke up a couple years prior, so that would have been awkward.

00:16:59.420 And in any case, she wouldn't have been able to croak out those songs quite as well.

00:17:04.240 And then, who knows?

00:17:05.260 What would have happened after the kid was born?

00:17:06.680 She actually tells us.

00:17:07.400 She did an interview with Rolling Stone last week.

00:17:09.720 She said that she killed her child because she didn't want to have the kid raised by a nanny.

00:17:16.980 She said, I wouldn't do that to my baby.

00:17:21.500 I'm not the kind of woman who would hand my baby over to a nanny, not in a million years.

00:17:25.480 So we'd be dragging a baby around the world on tour, and I wouldn't do that to my baby.

00:17:29.840 Wouldn't do that to my baby either.

00:17:31.420 So my decision was to have an abortion.

00:17:33.780 If people want to be mad at me about that, I don't really care because my life was my life, and my plan was my plan, and had been since the fourth grade.

00:17:39.820 So she had this plan, and then her child got in the way, so when forced to choose between her plan, her vision for her future, and her child, she chose to kill her child and pursue her plan without any changes to her plan whatsoever. 0.57

00:17:53.900 Why?

00:17:54.500 Because she said she had three options. 0.99

00:17:56.720 She could either drag her baby around the world on tour, or have her baby raised by a nanny, or murder her child. 1.00

00:18:07.240 And she's forgetting the fourth option, which is she could have just raised her child and had a good life.

00:18:14.180 And maybe she doesn't make as many records with Fleetwood Mac, but, you know, she has a kid, and she doesn't murder her kid. 0.85

00:18:21.200 Or she could have given the kid up for adoption, or she could, but she didn't even mention those latter two options.

00:18:26.260 It was either drag the kid around the world on tour, which would not be good for a baby, or have the kid raised by a nanny, which is not ideal, or murder her child.

00:18:35.480 The first two options, much better for the child than murdering the child, but she chose to murder the child.

00:18:43.380 Why?

00:18:44.380 Because even though I think most women know that it is killing a baby, that that's what abortion is just by definition, because the baby is small and doesn't talk yet, and you haven't interacted with the child much yet, I think women can gaslight themselves. 0.99

00:18:57.180 And just pretend that abortion is an erasure of an action that's already taken place, namely conception, rather than an act of killing of a person who has been conceived.

00:19:11.860 Because the baby's little, they can just kind of try to gaslight themselves about that.

00:19:16.080 I know a number of women who have had abortions. 0.95

00:19:18.500 They've all suffered trauma from it.

00:19:20.000 And some admit this, some, it's just implicit, but it's pretty clear.

00:19:25.440 So I don't know that they successfully gaslight themselves, but nevertheless, she says, look, that was my plan.

00:19:32.640 And otherwise, had I not killed the kid, it would have been hard to have Fleetwood Mac be as successful as it was.

00:19:39.320 And this final point is the most tragic to me. 0.99

00:19:43.080 This woman believes that Fleetwood Mac, that generic pop ditties, are worth killing her own child. 0.87

00:19:57.700 Or at least she's saying that.

00:19:58.860 I don't know if she really believes that.

00:20:00.500 I like Fleetwood Mac.

00:20:01.360 Fleetwood Mac is fine.

00:20:02.220 I'm not really knocking Fleetwood Mac.

00:20:03.580 I've listened to Fleetwood Mac before.

00:20:06.140 It's okay.

00:20:07.320 They're good.

00:20:08.100 They've had success.

00:20:10.620 Fleetwood Mac is completely forgettable.

00:20:13.740 Fleetwood Mac had a good run.

00:20:15.420 And in 50 years, very few people are going to remember Fleetwood Mac or remember the words to any of their songs.

00:20:21.840 And for that, she murdered her child. 0.81

00:20:25.820 That is a horrible tragedy.

00:20:28.760 And used all of this specious argumentation.

00:20:32.260 One argument, a pro-life argument that a friend of mine used to make in college when we would argue about this with pro-abortion people,

00:20:38.760 is he would say, okay, you think abortion's good because, you know, you don't want to bring a kid into the world unwanted or you don't want to bring a kid into the world in poverty or, you know, all these difficult circumstances.

00:20:49.300 Okay.

00:20:49.700 So, what would you say if instead of killing the child, instead of the abortion, you just went in there with a little needle and scrambled up the kid's brains a little bit? 1.00

00:20:58.680 Not enough to kill the kid, just to give the kid mental retardation. 1.00

00:21:02.100 But just scramble it up a little bit, but don't kill him. 0.98

00:21:05.500 And all the pro-abortion people would clutch their pearls.

00:21:09.200 They were aghast.

00:21:09.840 Oh, my God.

00:21:10.220 How could you ever do that to a child?

00:21:11.840 That's abusive.

00:21:13.040 That's so cruel.

00:21:13.620 Say, okay, I agree that would be cruel, but surely we would say an injury is less grievous than murder.

00:21:25.320 If I punch somebody in the face, even if I cause somebody to suffer a traumatic brain injury, that would be a less grievous action than to outright murder somebody.

00:21:35.080 So, why is it different in this case?

00:21:36.740 Why are you so afraid that you're, in this case, you're not even talking about giving someone a grave injury.

00:21:42.620 You're talking about having a kid raised by a nanny or something.

00:21:45.980 Or, you know, having to go tour and do a little bit of work for a while rather than murder a kid.

00:21:51.440 It just, none of it holds up whatsoever.

00:21:53.700 And so, you can see, this kind of reminds me, I had this debate with this guy, Ryan Grimm, this liberal on a show, Counterpoints, last week.

00:22:00.120 And at a certain point, we were just talking about abortion.

00:22:02.000 And at a certain point, he tried to have a few gotcha questions, and I smacked those down.

00:22:07.920 So, then we got to the issue of abortion.

00:22:09.560 And finally, he said, look, I don't want to talk about this anymore.

00:22:12.220 I don't want to think about this.

00:22:13.220 I don't want to have an opinion about this.

00:22:14.560 Stop.

00:22:14.860 You can't make me think about this.

00:22:16.960 Stop it.

00:22:17.680 You know, let me put my head in the sand.

00:22:19.420 I thought, right, that's what it comes down to.

00:22:21.240 Stevie Nicks says, yeah, okay, I don't care.

00:22:23.520 I don't care.

00:22:24.540 La, la, la.

00:22:25.240 That's my life.

00:22:26.020 That's my plan.

00:22:26.840 I don't want to think about it.

00:22:28.080 Right.

00:22:28.300 You don't want to think about it because the reality of it is inescapable.

00:22:32.300 There's so much more to say.

00:23:52.520 I can tell Ben Davies wrote this copy.

00:23:54.400 You can find out, as those are just a few of the pivotal topics in my series.

00:23:58.900 Face off, the most intense and daunting trivia showdown on the internet.

00:24:02.000 In the latest episode, Rob Schneider stepped into the arena

00:24:05.940 to see who has more knowledge about movies and entertainment.

00:24:09.280 Take a look.

00:24:10.320 In The 40-Year-Old Virgin, Steve Carell did something very painful

00:24:13.680 for the first time on camera for the film.

00:24:16.480 What was it?

00:24:17.240 He waxed his chest.

00:24:19.120 Take direction from Judd Apropos.

00:24:22.800 No!

00:24:23.660 Kelly Clarkson!

00:24:29.340 Watch this episode.

00:24:30.420 But available now on the Michael Knowles YouTube channel.

00:24:35.360 Speaking of morality and the youth,

00:24:37.280 I have a really important topic I have to bring up.

00:24:40.060 The Vatican has rolled out a cartoon mascot

00:24:44.140 for the jubilee year of 2025.

00:24:49.420 Every so often, there's a jubilee year.

00:24:51.300 This is a year of celebration.

00:24:53.180 That's what it means.

00:24:53.880 And it occurs regularly.

00:24:55.340 And so next year is a jubilee year.

00:24:56.620 And so for this jubilee year,

00:24:59.380 an archbishop, Rino Fisichella,

00:25:02.020 has trotted out a mascot for the year

00:25:05.680 that is this little kind of anime character.

00:25:09.060 It's a smiling young woman or girl

00:25:13.840 with blue hair and a rosary around her neck,

00:25:18.080 which is you're not supposed to wear a rosary around your neck,

00:25:19.820 but for the purposes of the cartoon, I kind of get it.

00:25:22.180 And it's actually a rosary.

00:25:23.900 I think it's the World Mission Rosary or something like that.

00:25:26.540 It was created by Fulton Sheen,

00:25:27.840 who's a great bishop and great broadcaster,

00:25:30.380 first televangelist, actually.

00:25:32.100 And she's wearing a yellow raincoat

00:25:34.900 and cute little green boots.

00:25:37.160 And she's the mascot.

00:25:39.180 And she has been extraordinarily polarizing.

00:25:45.520 Some of the real hardcore trads,

00:25:48.840 they say, this is infantilizing. 0.98

00:25:51.400 This is ridiculous. 0.91

00:25:52.240 Why do we need a little cartoon mascot 0.96

00:25:53.680 for this jubilee year from the church?

00:25:55.540 No, we shouldn't have this.

00:25:57.100 But others, even kind of more traditional people,

00:26:01.960 have said, no, we like this character.

00:26:04.380 The character's name is Luce.

00:26:05.660 Luce means light.

00:26:07.160 And some people are going off on this.

00:26:09.420 They're saying, Luce, it's like Lucifer.

00:26:11.760 But Luce, it means light in Latin and in Italian.

00:26:15.440 We have the name Lucy, Lucia in Italian,

00:26:17.880 Lucy, Lucille in English.

00:26:20.180 It's a fine name.

00:26:20.960 Saint Lucia, Saint Lucia

00:26:21.940 is one of the great saints in history.

00:26:23.680 Actually, the cartoon seems to be based

00:26:27.320 on blessed Chiara Luce Badano,

00:26:31.140 who is a woman who was killed in 1990.

00:26:34.340 She wasn't killed.

00:26:34.940 She died of a disease in 1990.

00:26:37.000 And she's now been beatified.

00:26:39.000 She's on track to sainthood.

00:26:42.000 One of the other arguments against this cartoon

00:26:44.820 is that the artist has issues.

00:26:46.360 Apparently, the artist who created this cartoon

00:26:48.220 has all sorts of kind of weird designs

00:26:51.340 that are aberrant and deviant and sure.

00:26:54.900 However, I would say in response to that,

00:26:56.340 Caravaggio, one of the greatest painters of all time,

00:26:58.300 he had some issues too.

00:26:59.780 I think he murdered a guy and did all sorts of weird stuff.

00:27:02.260 And so the artists have issues often.

00:27:04.860 Doesn't necessarily diminish the art.

00:27:07.840 Some people say, well, the bishops who pushed this,

00:27:10.460 you know, the bishops are,

00:27:12.460 they're kind of libs and they're trying to modernize.

00:27:14.920 And yeah, okay, what I, sure.

00:27:16.840 As Hilaire Belloc said,

00:27:18.880 he takes it that the Catholic church

00:27:20.400 is a divinely instituted organization

00:27:22.860 as a matter of faith.

00:27:24.060 But for those who doubt the divine institution,

00:27:27.500 no other institution conducted 0.99

00:27:29.700 with such knavish imbecility 0.98

00:27:30.940 would have lasted a fortnight, 1.00

00:27:32.000 much less 2000 years.

00:27:33.180 So forget about the, yeah, sure.

00:27:34.560 Prelates and all,

00:27:36.180 people have all sorts of bad opinions

00:27:37.500 and bad motivations sometimes.

00:27:39.300 However, I will say this.

00:27:41.340 As someone who attends the traditional Latin mass,

00:27:45.400 I, I own many bow ties.

00:27:48.160 I read many dusty old books.

00:27:50.020 I smoke cigars.

00:27:51.660 I am married and I have three kids

00:27:54.060 under the age of four.

00:27:55.040 I am what, what most people would call a trad.

00:27:59.980 I'm very pro-luce.

00:28:01.940 And the reason I'm pro-luce

00:28:03.140 is one, I think it's a perfectly innocent

00:28:06.720 little cartoon for a jubilee year

00:28:08.600 intended to appeal to young people.

00:28:10.340 And perhaps especially to people in the East.

00:28:14.140 It's the memes.

00:28:15.680 The memes are what did it for me.

00:28:17.820 There are so many funny memes that have popped up.

00:28:20.000 There are memes of luce

00:28:21.480 standing in front of a bunch of crusaders,

00:28:24.680 you know, with the crusader cross on them.

00:28:26.940 Deus volt, knights in shining armor.

00:28:29.520 There's so many others.

00:28:30.440 There's one meme of, of luce.

00:28:32.220 Yeah, there's one.

00:28:33.520 It says he was a boy and it's like a little Pepe frog

00:28:36.140 in a crusader outfit.

00:28:37.520 She was a girl and it's luce just, you know, praying.

00:28:40.860 There's a meme of, of, of, you know,

00:28:42.940 this staff that she's holding, the pilgrim staff.

00:28:45.420 Some people calling it a witch staff.

00:28:46.680 It's, I think it's a pilgrim staff,

00:28:47.780 like the, you know, Santiago de Compostela,

00:28:50.680 cracking through a fence.

00:28:52.380 And the devil is terrified.

00:28:54.540 And it's just this cute little girl just smiling like, 0.98

00:28:56.640 ha ha, coming for you, Satan.

00:28:58.820 I'm going to pray to Saint Michael

00:28:59.960 that by the power of God, 0.71

00:29:01.040 you're thrust back into hell where you belong. 0.82

00:29:03.080 The memes are really, really funny.

00:29:05.520 And they're funny in part because of the incongruity

00:29:07.280 of this innocent little girl smiling,

00:29:09.040 you know, with her rosary and her, her pilgrim stick. 0.77

00:29:11.920 And then, you know, the devil or sinner

00:29:13.640 is being burned at the stake

00:29:14.900 or some are a little edgy even to put,

00:29:16.300 to put on the show.

00:29:17.060 So it's a wholesome show.

00:29:18.260 But this to me is the proof

00:29:20.300 that luce is good.

00:29:22.220 That this is, whether intentional or unintentional,

00:29:24.640 a good example of the church

00:29:26.440 interacting with pop culture.

00:29:29.220 And it's evidence to me

00:29:31.220 that the popular culture is desiring the church.

00:29:35.540 That the popular culture longs for the eternal,

00:29:38.240 longs for truth and beauty and goodness,

00:29:40.340 longs for holiness.

00:29:42.320 Even so much to say that they'll take

00:29:45.560 a perfectly, you know,

00:29:47.400 nice looking little cartoon

00:29:48.480 and then put this cartoon

00:29:50.280 into serious, very traditional situations.

00:29:55.060 Battling demons, battling Saracens,

00:29:57.460 battling heretics.

00:29:59.280 This is, this is good.

00:30:01.720 Nihil Obstat, this is my official declaration.

00:30:05.020 You judge a tree by its fruit.

00:30:07.700 You judge a popular cartoon by the memes

00:30:10.300 that it generates.

00:30:12.140 The memes here are good.

00:30:15.520 A bad cartoon does not generate

00:30:17.620 excellent memes.

00:30:20.680 Luce has the seal of approval.

00:30:22.960 Love it.

00:30:24.000 Absolutely love it.

00:30:25.060 Now, speaking of memes,

00:30:26.160 President Trump has produced some memes

00:30:27.400 over the past 24 hours.

00:30:29.240 President Trump, 0.99

00:30:31.140 shortly after being called garbage, 1.00

00:30:34.520 having his supporters called garbage 0.99

00:30:36.140 by Joe Biden, 0.98

00:30:37.660 the sitting president,

00:30:38.340 President Trump has,

00:30:40.340 has rented a garbage truck

00:30:43.460 in Wisconsin.

00:30:45.020 He's driving around

00:30:46.260 in a sanitation workers'

00:30:48.320 orange vest,

00:30:49.880 driving around Wisconsin,

00:30:51.800 picking up all the garbage

00:30:53.520 because the Democrats view 0.98

00:30:54.940 ordinary American people 1.00

00:30:56.120 as garbage 1.00

00:30:56.660 and Trump is happy 1.00

00:30:57.680 to have their support

00:30:58.660 and their votes.

00:30:59.400 How do you like my garbage truck?

00:31:02.600 This truck is in honor

00:31:04.080 of Kamala and Joe Biden.

00:31:06.140 This is so beautiful

00:31:07.400 and it's not just the truck.

00:31:08.680 You can see through the window

00:31:09.940 a little bit,

00:31:10.400 Trump is wearing the vest.

00:31:11.320 He wore that vest

00:31:12.240 to the rally later that day.

00:31:15.340 And they said,

00:31:16.480 it would be unbelievable

00:31:17.600 if you could wear it on stage.

00:31:19.600 I said,

00:31:20.040 and I said,

00:31:22.380 no way.

00:31:23.820 I got 25,000 people

00:31:26.180 standing outside.

00:31:27.160 I got all these people here.

00:31:28.340 There's no way

00:31:29.140 I'm wearing it on stage.

00:31:30.840 They said,

00:31:31.500 oh, okay, sir.

00:31:32.480 I said,

00:31:32.760 get me my jacket.

00:31:34.160 But if you did,

00:31:35.400 you know,

00:31:36.280 it actually makes you look thinner.

00:31:39.040 I said,

00:31:39.860 and they got me.

00:31:43.620 I said,

00:31:43.980 I want to wear it on stage.

00:31:46.680 When they said,

00:31:47.620 I look thinner.

00:31:48.960 I said,

00:31:49.700 in that case,

00:31:51.180 I'll wear it on stage.

00:31:58.340 I may never wear

00:32:00.640 a blue jacket again.

00:32:02.120 I may go,

00:32:03.240 I may go in this.

00:32:05.780 I said that,

00:32:06.440 that was my,

00:32:07.520 that was the word,

00:32:08.500 that was the key.

00:32:09.440 Sir,

00:32:09.660 you'll look thinner.

00:32:10.280 This clip reminded me

00:32:12.200 of an insight

00:32:12.640 that I had at MSG.

00:32:14.240 I went to MSG on Sunday,

00:32:15.560 you know,

00:32:15.780 to support President Trump.

00:32:16.860 Final stretch,

00:32:17.480 biggest rally.

00:32:18.340 It's just absolutely

00:32:19.280 incredible display.

00:32:23.140 I had never been

00:32:24.060 to a Trump rally.

00:32:25.120 Long time admirer

00:32:26.040 of President Trump.

00:32:27.000 A Trump voter

00:32:27.640 since 2016.

00:32:29.440 Big supporter

00:32:30.080 of the president.

00:32:31.660 I was,

00:32:31.960 there have been

00:32:32.400 a couple times

00:32:32.960 where maybe I was

00:32:33.520 going to interview him.

00:32:34.560 Hasn't panned out.

00:32:35.320 So I have never really

00:32:36.260 gotten to see him

00:32:37.000 do his thing in person.

00:32:39.240 And when I was sitting there,

00:32:40.580 I was pretty close up

00:32:41.360 to the president at MSG.

00:32:43.740 The first thought I had

00:32:44.840 when he walked on stage,

00:32:46.280 and this thought

00:32:46.760 had never come to me

00:32:47.520 before,

00:32:47.900 was,

00:32:49.000 oh,

00:32:49.580 this guy's like Elvis.

00:32:52.260 I'm a big Elvis fan too.

00:32:54.660 Trump,

00:32:55.600 when you see Trump on TV,

00:32:57.380 usually you see,

00:32:58.620 you know,

00:32:58.800 I don't know, 0.85

00:32:59.060 he's kind of goofy 0.63

00:32:59.720 or he's a little, 0.53

00:33:01.460 when you see him in person,

00:33:02.980 in the full context

00:33:04.380 of the arena that he's in,

00:33:05.840 you realize,

00:33:06.600 this guy is on

00:33:08.860 a completely other level.

00:33:10.760 Look,

00:33:11.140 Elon Musk spoke.

00:33:12.340 Elon Musk is great.

00:33:13.120 He's one of the most

00:33:13.580 impressive people

00:33:14.240 of our lifetimes.

00:33:16.280 But Elon Musk 0.89

00:33:17.100 is kind of goofy on stage.

00:33:18.180 He doesn't always have 0.68

00:33:18.800 total command of the audience.

00:33:20.600 Trump,

00:33:21.520 Trump is Elvis.

00:33:24.180 Trump walks on that stage.

00:33:25.840 He is in

00:33:26.480 complete

00:33:28.100 command of the audience.

00:33:30.100 This man,

00:33:30.700 I've been around

00:33:31.340 a lot of politicians

00:33:32.140 and a lot of people

00:33:32.960 in show business.

00:33:33.640 this man

00:33:36.040 is in

00:33:36.560 complete

00:33:37.760 control.

00:33:39.920 He is,

00:33:40.320 and you saw it on display

00:33:41.460 perfectly here.

00:33:42.280 He just walks up

00:33:43.120 and he's doing

00:33:44.320 a comedy routine.

00:33:45.580 And he's doing

00:33:46.160 a comedy routine

00:33:46.920 that he knows

00:33:47.600 is going to land

00:33:48.420 perfectly.

00:33:49.980 Because it's simple.

00:33:51.020 He's not telling really

00:33:51.940 esoteric,

00:33:52.700 complex jokes.

00:33:53.280 It's a very simple joke.

00:33:54.320 The joke is he didn't

00:33:54.980 want to wear this vest

00:33:56.000 because he thought

00:33:56.420 it looked kind of silly.

00:33:57.320 But then someone told him 0.81

00:33:58.440 it made him look thinner,

00:33:59.400 which is a kind of

00:34:00.120 humble thing to admit

00:34:01.000 because he's admitting,

00:34:01.780 oh, sometimes I'm a little

00:34:02.500 bit overweight.

00:34:03.220 It's a humble thing.

00:34:04.060 And then he goes,

00:34:04.540 oh, thinner.

00:34:05.020 I'm going to wear

00:34:05.520 this everywhere now.

00:34:06.240 That's it.

00:34:06.500 It's a very,

00:34:07.140 very simple joke.

00:34:08.080 But his delivery

00:34:09.260 is perfect.

00:34:12.640 Just forget about

00:34:13.960 you hate him politically,

00:34:14.820 maybe you don't

00:34:15.640 think about him.

00:34:16.460 I'm just saying

00:34:17.000 from the perspective

00:34:17.680 of show business,

00:34:18.900 he has the audience

00:34:20.020 wrapped around his finger.

00:34:22.200 Even John Corral

00:34:23.100 on ABC had to admit this.

00:34:24.260 He said he packed

00:34:24.660 up Madison Square Garden

00:34:25.500 with all these people

00:34:26.420 outside.

00:34:27.540 We haven't seen this

00:34:28.760 in American politics

00:34:29.640 in a long time.

00:34:30.980 He has built

00:34:31.380 a real movement

00:34:32.260 around him.

00:34:36.040 And he's so quick

00:34:38.120 on his feet.

00:34:38.600 He's got the showman's

00:34:39.580 reaction.

00:34:40.480 He can just,

00:34:41.160 in real time,

00:34:42.440 the greatest example

00:34:44.000 of this probably

00:34:44.420 was in 16

00:34:45.060 when Megyn Kelly

00:34:46.300 asked him about

00:34:47.360 how he called women 1.00

00:34:48.020 fat and pigs. 0.99

00:34:49.100 And it was a brutal 0.99

00:34:49.920 question.

00:34:50.760 And Trump doesn't

00:34:51.520 miss a beat.

00:34:51.880 He goes,

00:34:52.100 only Rosie O'Donnell. 0.90

00:34:53.100 That is a showman's

00:34:55.660 ability to react

00:34:57.020 that is a gift.

00:34:59.000 And a lot,

00:34:59.380 most people don't

00:34:59.860 have that.

00:35:00.220 The vast majority

00:35:00.720 of people don't

00:35:01.540 have that gift.

00:35:02.980 Trump's renting 1.00

00:35:03.900 out the garbage

00:35:04.600 truck,

00:35:05.320 knowing how to

00:35:05.960 sit in the garbage

00:35:06.660 truck,

00:35:07.420 putting on the vest,

00:35:08.720 knowing how to

00:35:09.300 play off putting

00:35:10.200 on the vest so

00:35:11.260 that it didn't

00:35:11.760 seem just like a

00:35:12.380 total cheap gimmick.

00:35:14.180 Coming up with

00:35:14.720 this whole bit,

00:35:15.120 I didn't want to

00:35:15.720 wear the vest.

00:35:16.880 I said,

00:35:17.520 I'm not wearing it.

00:35:18.940 But then they said,

00:35:19.900 sir, okay,

00:35:20.420 you don't have to

00:35:20.880 wear it.

00:35:21.260 It just,

00:35:21.580 it makes you look

00:35:22.080 thinner.

00:35:22.400 Hold on.

00:35:22.740 Wait, what?

00:35:23.780 Excuse me?

00:35:24.560 Maybe.

00:35:25.000 And they got me to put

00:35:25.860 on the vest.

00:35:26.320 Even that,

00:35:27.640 it makes it seem

00:35:28.700 so much more

00:35:29.580 authentic,

00:35:30.340 so much more

00:35:31.140 relatable.

00:35:32.180 And it's quick

00:35:33.160 on your feet.

00:35:34.260 He capitalized

00:35:35.640 on Biden

00:35:36.940 calling Trump 1.00

00:35:38.100 supporters garbage 1.00

00:35:39.100 instantly, 0.99

00:35:40.620 instantly in the

00:35:41.300 perfect way.

00:35:42.660 And so what's the

00:35:43.160 political lesson

00:35:43.700 for us?

00:35:44.840 We need to be

00:35:45.620 quick on our feet

00:35:46.300 too.

00:35:48.680 Regular old

00:35:49.320 conservatives,

00:35:49.840 we need to be

00:35:50.200 quick on our feet,

00:35:50.800 but we're not

00:35:51.160 quick on our feet.

00:35:51.900 We're always

00:35:52.500 fighting the last

00:35:53.200 war.

00:35:53.560 We're always

00:35:53.960 arguing about

00:35:54.600 last time and

00:35:55.360 two times

00:35:55.780 ago and how

00:35:56.300 we should

00:35:56.580 play it and

00:35:57.080 how if only

00:35:57.620 we were running

00:35:58.280 the Bush 04 0.56

00:35:59.520 campaign,

00:36:00.280 then we'd be

00:36:00.720 so far ahead

00:36:01.500 or we just

00:36:02.460 need to run

00:36:03.420 like Romney

00:36:04.080 but a little

00:36:04.520 bit better

00:36:04.940 or something.

00:36:05.460 No.

00:36:06.820 Democrats

00:36:07.220 changed the

00:36:07.820 rules in 2020.

00:36:08.720 They just

00:36:08.920 changed many

00:36:10.040 of the voting

00:36:10.480 rules throughout

00:36:11.160 the country.

00:36:13.780 And if we

00:36:14.780 want to win,

00:36:15.860 they succeeded

00:36:17.300 at changing

00:36:17.700 the rules.

00:36:18.140 If we want

00:36:18.620 to win,

00:36:19.200 we have to

00:36:19.980 win according

00:36:20.760 to those rules.

00:36:21.740 There's no

00:36:22.040 alternative.

00:36:22.620 I hope we can

00:36:23.100 change the rules

00:36:23.560 back.

00:36:23.900 I hope we can

00:36:24.200 make the rules

00:36:24.580 more advantageous

00:36:25.300 for us.

00:36:25.820 But to do

00:36:26.260 that, we need

00:36:26.640 to attain

00:36:27.020 power.

00:36:27.420 To attain

00:36:27.660 power, we

00:36:28.360 need to win

00:36:29.540 according to

00:36:30.020 the current

00:36:30.400 system.

00:36:31.460 Trump's doing

00:36:31.860 that.

00:36:32.140 This is why

00:36:32.680 I've said

00:36:32.980 from early

00:36:33.800 on, you

00:36:35.040 people are

00:36:35.360 blackpilling,

00:36:35.920 some of you,

00:36:36.640 you don't want

00:36:37.160 to vote early,

00:36:37.760 you want to

00:36:38.080 vote on election

00:36:38.560 day, you

00:36:38.880 should vote

00:36:39.320 early.

00:36:40.260 Democrats

00:36:40.580 vote early

00:36:41.040 and often.

00:36:41.520 You should

00:36:41.780 vote early so

00:36:43.080 that you make

00:36:43.620 sure your vote

00:36:44.140 is counted.

00:36:44.620 You need to

00:36:44.920 vote early and

00:36:45.480 then check that

00:36:46.140 your vote was

00:36:46.640 counted.

00:36:47.540 I don't like

00:36:48.200 voting early.

00:36:49.020 I don't like

00:36:49.480 mail-in ballots,

00:36:50.160 but that's the

00:36:50.580 system we have.

00:36:51.140 If we want to

00:36:51.500 win, we've got

00:36:51.820 to play by

00:36:52.180 that system.

00:36:53.200 That's what I've

00:36:53.460 been saying for

00:36:53.800 weeks, months

00:36:54.580 maybe.

00:36:55.740 And now look

00:36:56.140 what's happening

00:36:56.560 in Colorado.

00:36:57.640 Now the ballots

00:36:58.420 are going missing.

00:36:59.960 Now people try

00:37:00.920 to vote, they

00:37:01.360 find out actually

00:37:01.880 a vote's already

00:37:02.280 been cast in

00:37:02.800 your name.

00:37:03.380 If you vote

00:37:03.940 early, if you

00:37:04.640 play along with

00:37:05.320 the new system,

00:37:06.440 you can catch

00:37:07.680 that, you can

00:37:08.560 rectify that.

00:37:10.200 Got to do it

00:37:10.900 though.

00:37:11.860 You've got officials

00:37:12.380 in Pennsylvania

00:37:12.880 shutting down the

00:37:13.760 voter lines early,

00:37:14.780 hours before the

00:37:15.520 cutoff time.

00:37:16.120 It means you've

00:37:16.520 got to vote early

00:37:17.300 if you want to

00:37:19.260 be able to

00:37:21.300 overcome that.

00:37:22.100 You know what I

00:38:14.460 My favorite

00:38:16.640 comment yesterday

00:38:17.160 is from Bridget

00:38:17.820 Menke, 17x, who

00:38:20.060 says, we requested

00:38:20.840 three mail-in ballots

00:38:21.700 for our three

00:38:22.140 daughters, never

00:38:22.660 got them.

00:38:23.260 Hmm, there you

00:38:24.120 go.

00:38:25.320 There you go.

00:38:25.960 That's exactly what

00:38:26.620 I'm talking about.

00:38:28.120 So if you can vote

00:38:29.040 a little early, in a

00:38:29.680 lot of places, you

00:38:30.340 can still vote today.

00:38:31.460 In my state of

00:38:32.160 Tennessee, you can

00:38:32.620 still vote today.

00:38:33.340 I would do that.

00:38:35.060 And then if there's

00:38:35.620 any problem, okay,

00:38:37.000 well now you've got

00:38:37.680 five days to rectify

00:38:38.980 it.

00:38:40.080 Now you know you're

00:38:40.820 going to show up on

00:38:41.400 election day, you're

00:38:41.980 not going to wait

00:38:42.460 for the mail-ins,

00:38:43.140 maybe the mail-in's

00:38:43.700 not going to come,

00:38:44.140 maybe those mail-ins

00:38:44.740 were intercepted and

00:38:46.120 cast on your behalf,

00:38:47.660 or on behalf of your

00:38:48.700 daughters.

00:38:49.320 Maybe you've got to

00:38:49.780 rectify that.

00:38:51.440 It's going to be a

00:38:51.840 lot of tricks.

00:38:52.380 Democrats are going

00:38:52.860 to try to rig this

00:38:53.480 thing up and down.

00:38:54.860 They already have by

00:38:55.680 changing the rules.

00:38:57.440 But you've got to

00:38:57.940 win.

00:38:58.840 This is what I liked

00:38:59.680 about Jerry Seinfeld's

00:39:00.600 point when he said he

00:39:01.940 regretted blaming the

00:39:03.020 left for ruining

00:39:03.520 comedy.

00:39:04.700 He wasn't saying that

00:39:05.620 the left didn't ruin

00:39:06.380 comedy.

00:39:07.020 I don't think that was

00:39:07.760 really the point he

00:39:08.280 was making.

00:39:09.080 The point he was

00:39:09.680 making is if you're

00:39:10.320 skiing, you've got to

00:39:10.860 make the gate.

00:39:11.420 You've got to play

00:39:11.840 according to the rules

00:39:12.980 of the game, otherwise

00:39:13.700 you're out of the game.

00:39:14.980 You want to change the

00:39:15.660 rules of the game, you

00:39:16.160 got to win the game.

00:39:16.720 Then you can change

00:39:17.180 the rules of the game.

00:39:19.620 Now some Republicans do

00:39:21.640 not want us to vote for

00:39:23.320 President Trump.

00:39:23.940 I'm thinking of

00:39:25.680 Arnold, Arnold

00:39:27.700 Schwarzenegger, who was

00:39:30.340 married to a Kennedy, so

00:39:31.640 a little bit sus to

00:39:32.440 begin with, although

00:39:33.160 now actually at least

00:39:34.140 one Kennedy, Bobby

00:39:35.000 Kennedy, is kind of a

00:39:36.180 Republican.

00:39:37.200 But the Kennedy that

00:39:38.260 Arnold was married to

00:39:39.360 as not a Republican is

00:39:41.660 actually campaigning with

00:39:42.460 Kamala.

00:39:42.920 And Liz Cheney, who used 1.00

00:39:43.780 to be a Republican, but

00:39:44.500 is a Democrat.

00:39:45.080 Now Arnold, it seems, is

00:39:46.160 half a Democrat too,

00:39:47.240 because he wrote this

00:39:48.440 whole long post that I'm

00:39:49.380 not going to read.

00:39:49.960 He's twisting himself

00:39:51.320 into logical knots, trying

00:39:53.800 to justify voting for a

00:39:55.800 woman who's obviously 0.82

00:39:56.760 incompetent, not nearly 0.99

00:39:58.060 educated or intelligent 1.00

00:39:59.140 enough to be president,

00:40:00.380 and who supports the

00:40:03.040 most hideous, immoral

00:40:04.720 policies you can

00:40:05.560 possibly imagine.

00:40:06.520 How does he twist

00:40:07.320 himself into pretzels?

00:40:09.260 Says, ah, the January

00:40:10.540 6th, doc.

00:40:12.920 I want to move forward.

00:40:14.280 I can't do a good

00:40:14.840 Arnold.

00:40:15.260 I want to move forward

00:40:15.900 as a country, and even

00:40:16.680 though I have plenty of

00:40:17.380 disagreements with their

00:40:18.040 platform, I think the

00:40:19.420 only way to do that is

00:40:20.160 with Harrison Walls.

00:40:22.460 So he's admitting, he

00:40:23.220 says, yeah, their

00:40:23.620 platform is horrible.

00:40:25.200 Their vision for the

00:40:25.880 country is terrible.

00:40:27.960 He doesn't show any

00:40:29.160 evidence that they can

00:40:31.200 actually accomplish

00:40:32.480 anything good for the

00:40:33.480 country.

00:40:34.440 There's no achievements

00:40:35.080 that he's really

00:40:36.080 pointing to.

00:40:36.600 He just hates Trump.

00:40:37.720 He and Trump have

00:40:38.220 gotten into personal

00:40:39.460 squabbles for years now.

00:40:41.700 Arnold took over The

00:40:42.700 Apprentice, which was

00:40:43.880 the show that Trump

00:40:44.540 made a big hit for,

00:40:45.440 what was it, 12, 13

00:40:46.220 years, and Arnold's

00:40:47.380 version of it,

00:40:47.900 flopped.

00:40:48.800 So he's got this

00:40:49.660 personal beef with

00:40:50.440 Trump, and so he

00:40:52.260 says, okay, I'm going

00:40:52.960 to endorse the

00:40:54.260 candidates who are

00:40:56.680 running on a ticket to 0.99

00:40:57.680 what, kill babies up 0.98

00:40:58.880 until the moment of 1.00

00:40:59.560 birth or afterward,

00:41:01.000 open up the border,

00:41:02.560 and trans the kids.

00:41:05.540 You know, the line,

00:41:07.860 Arnold's famous line,

00:41:09.000 get to the chopper,

00:41:09.940 seemed a lot more

00:41:10.660 innocent before he

00:41:11.480 endorsed the ticket that

00:41:12.420 wants to trans all the 0.96

00:41:13.320 kids.

00:41:14.220 Now, this guy, who's

00:41:15.620 not only a movie star,

00:41:16.600 is a former Republican

00:41:18.320 governor, supposed

00:41:20.260 Republican.

00:41:22.000 He endorses the ticket

00:41:22.940 that wants to trans the 0.93

00:41:23.860 kids.

00:41:25.660 He endorses, Tim

00:41:26.960 Walls tried to make 0.85

00:41:27.820 Minnesota the windowless

00:41:29.200 white van of the

00:41:29.940 Midwest, and we said,

00:41:30.780 hey, come here,

00:41:31.380 trans kids.

00:41:32.680 Come on over here to

00:41:34.720 Minnesota.

00:41:35.620 Yeah, we got tampons in

00:41:37.220 the boys' room for you.

00:41:38.300 Just swing by the

00:41:39.420 governor's mansion,

00:41:40.280 maybe.

00:41:41.460 Kamala Harris, this

00:41:42.580 woman who can't utter 1.00

00:41:43.860 an English sentence

00:41:44.700 properly.

00:41:46.020 She has to interrupt

00:41:47.300 her lapses in

00:41:49.960 cognition with wild,

00:41:52.880 witchy cackling.

00:41:55.040 The most radically

00:41:56.260 left-wing ticket in

00:41:57.300 American history by a

00:41:58.560 country mile.

00:42:01.300 Arnold endorses that. 1.00

00:42:03.200 Pathetic. 1.00

00:42:04.580 And why? 1.00

00:42:05.520 Why?

00:42:05.800 I suspect a lot of it

00:42:06.960 is.

00:42:08.080 With Arnold

00:42:08.980 Schwarzenegger, with

00:42:10.080 Liz Cheney, with Dick

00:42:11.500 Cheney even, with these

00:42:13.360 Republicans, supposed

00:42:14.720 Republicans who are

00:42:15.920 endorsing Kamala, I

00:42:17.700 think it's personal.

00:42:18.760 You know, Trump and

00:42:19.380 Arnold have had

00:42:19.980 personal beef for a

00:42:20.800 long time.

00:42:21.800 Arnold can't make a

00:42:22.620 public argument as to

00:42:23.920 why he opposes Trump,

00:42:24.940 really, other than

00:42:25.620 January 6th or

00:42:26.400 whatever. 0.97

00:42:26.680 It's ridiculous. 0.99

00:42:27.880 He can't make a 0.98

00:42:28.820 policy argument.

00:42:29.780 He can't make a

00:42:30.420 political argument.

00:42:31.240 It seems personal.

00:42:33.260 Liz Cheney.

00:42:33.920 Trump chased Liz

00:42:34.740 Cheney out of

00:42:35.220 Congress, and it's

00:42:36.340 personal, and she's on

00:42:37.040 a personal vendetta.

00:42:37.940 Hell hath no fury

00:42:39.060 like a woman scorned. 0.96

00:42:41.100 Dick Cheney, I

00:42:41.680 actually kind of get

00:42:42.320 why Dick Cheney

00:42:42.960 opposes Trump, because

00:42:44.320 he's just backing up

00:42:45.040 his daughter.

00:42:45.560 But okay, it's just

00:42:46.300 personal for them.

00:42:48.220 Why is George Bush

00:42:49.240 opposed Trump?

00:42:49.980 I think largely because

00:42:50.800 Trump was so mean to

00:42:51.640 his brother, you know,

00:42:52.620 in no small part.

00:42:53.760 And because Trump was

00:42:54.800 tough on the Bush

00:42:55.860 administration's record.

00:42:57.860 I think that's broadly,

00:42:59.160 maybe there's some

00:42:59.800 political considerations.

00:43:00.660 I think it's largely

00:43:01.360 personal.

00:43:01.980 It's kind of funny.

00:43:03.080 You know, these people

00:43:03.580 all talk about how

00:43:04.220 principled they are,

00:43:06.040 how they're, you know,

00:43:06.560 they're the principled,

00:43:07.420 real conservatives.

00:43:08.960 And yet, none of their

00:43:11.060 political activism in

00:43:12.080 recent years seems to be

00:43:13.000 about the common good.

00:43:14.460 It all seems to be about

00:43:15.600 petty personal grievances.

00:43:17.060 Now, we turn to more

00:43:19.160 admirable celebrities.

00:43:20.360 The more admirable

00:43:20.940 celebrities are endorsing

00:43:21.900 Trump, up to and

00:43:22.700 including Buzz Aldrin.

00:43:25.480 Buzz Aldrin also wrote a

00:43:26.400 very long post, much

00:43:27.180 better than Arnold's

00:43:27.860 post.

00:43:28.140 I won't read the whole

00:43:28.700 thing.

00:43:29.340 But he said, for me,

00:43:30.200 for the future of our

00:43:30.840 country, to meet enormous

00:43:32.220 challenges and for the

00:43:33.020 unproven policy

00:43:33.720 accomplishments, I'm

00:43:34.740 sorry, for the proven

00:43:35.420 policy accomplishments above.

00:43:36.820 So, he actually does name

00:43:38.040 public political things

00:43:39.540 that Trump did that won

00:43:40.480 over his support.

00:43:41.740 I believe we are best

00:43:42.560 served by voting for

00:43:43.460 Donald Trump.

00:43:44.400 I wholeheartedly endorse him

00:43:45.440 for President of the

00:43:45.960 United States.

00:43:46.840 Godspeed, President Trump,

00:43:48.040 and God bless the United

00:43:48.960 States of America.

00:43:50.680 What I really liked was

00:43:52.060 in response to Buzz

00:43:54.520 Aldrin's post, you know,

00:43:55.920 this is the second person

00:43:56.880 to step foot on the moon.

00:43:58.560 There are a number of

00:43:59.460 people who don't think

00:43:59.940 we ever went to the moon,

00:44:00.800 but I saw one of them,

00:44:02.080 I forget who, was at the

00:44:03.320 top of the Twitter

00:44:03.840 comments.

00:44:04.220 He goes, okay.

00:44:05.000 Oh, no, you know who it

00:44:05.740 was?

00:44:05.900 It was the Horn Hat guy,

00:44:07.480 Jacob Chansley from

00:44:08.420 January 6th.

00:44:11.300 He was at the top

00:44:12.360 of the comments,

00:44:13.020 top of the replies

00:44:13.640 on Twitter, and he said,

00:44:14.780 he said, okay,

00:44:16.320 I'll say we went

00:44:18.320 to the moon now.

00:44:19.040 Okay, thank you,

00:44:19.880 Buzz Aldrin.

00:44:20.660 I'm now willing to say

00:44:21.640 we went to the moon.

00:44:23.420 And so,

00:44:24.480 why did Aldrin

00:44:25.560 endorse Trump?

00:44:27.100 He says, well,

00:44:27.740 I like Trump's

00:44:28.580 space policy more than

00:44:29.480 I like Kamala's

00:44:30.300 space policy.

00:44:31.440 And I like this

00:44:32.420 and I like that.

00:44:33.160 But he also mentions

00:44:33.940 Elon Musk.

00:44:34.540 He says, I really like

00:44:35.780 what Elon Musk has done

00:44:36.660 to pick up slack

00:44:37.360 where the government

00:44:37.860 has failed.

00:44:39.000 And this reminds us

00:44:40.720 that endorsements

00:44:41.900 can matter.

00:44:43.540 Endorsements really

00:44:44.080 can matter.

00:44:44.880 I think of Zachary

00:44:45.740 Levi, the actor

00:44:46.660 who plays Shazam,

00:44:47.740 who played Chuck

00:44:48.840 on NBC.

00:44:51.120 Zachary Levi,

00:44:52.020 he's not a rock-ribbed,

00:44:54.000 right-wing,

00:44:54.800 conservative Republican,

00:44:56.000 exactly.

00:44:57.000 He obviously seems

00:44:57.780 a little bit heterodox

00:44:58.640 in far-left Hollywood,

00:45:00.060 but when Zachary Levi

00:45:02.920 came out to endorse

00:45:03.700 Trump,

00:45:04.500 he said, look,

00:45:05.340 I'm a Kennedy guy.

00:45:07.100 I supported Bobby

00:45:08.300 Kennedy for president.

00:45:10.040 But Bobby Kennedy

00:45:11.300 endorsed Trump,

00:45:12.460 so because I support

00:45:13.460 Kennedy,

00:45:13.900 I'm going to support

00:45:14.580 Trump.

00:45:16.420 With Buzz Aldrin,

00:45:17.480 he says,

00:45:17.740 I really admire

00:45:18.560 Elon Musk.

00:45:20.460 Elon Musk endorses

00:45:21.760 Trump.

00:45:22.260 That brings people

00:45:23.000 along.

00:45:23.860 The endorsements

00:45:24.440 matter.

00:45:24.920 Politics is a social

00:45:25.960 endeavor.

00:45:27.060 It really helps.

00:45:27.920 And so for you now,

00:45:29.080 we're looking down

00:45:30.160 the barrel.

00:45:30.640 I mean,

00:45:30.780 we are in the final

00:45:31.540 stretch of the election,

00:45:32.300 what,

00:45:32.420 five days until the

00:45:33.140 election?

00:45:33.860 Until the end of the

00:45:34.700 election.

00:45:35.000 The election really

00:45:35.540 started over a month

00:45:36.380 ago.

00:45:38.380 Who can you sway?

00:45:39.740 That's the question

00:45:40.460 for you.

00:45:42.020 You might not be able

00:45:43.120 to sway a million

00:45:43.720 voters.

00:45:44.820 Can you sway

00:45:45.840 your family?

00:45:48.160 Can you sway

00:45:49.060 your roommates?

00:45:49.760 You're probably not

00:45:50.340 going to sway your 0.99

00:45:51.140 purple-haired lesbian 1.00

00:45:52.180 cousin with 150 face 0.95

00:45:53.520 tattoos.

00:45:54.160 Though maybe you will,

00:45:55.040 actually.

00:45:55.420 You know,

00:45:55.780 there is a realignment

00:45:56.620 going on.

00:45:57.240 And people can

00:45:58.640 repent and change

00:45:59.760 their minds about

00:46:00.200 a lot of things.

00:46:01.280 And chaos breeds

00:46:02.200 opportunity.

00:46:02.860 That's true in

00:46:03.240 politics as anything

00:46:04.140 else.

00:46:04.740 So actually,

00:46:05.140 maybe you can

00:46:05.620 convince your 0.99

00:46:06.160 purple-haired lesbian 0.99

00:46:07.140 niece with 17 face 0.86

00:46:09.260 tattoos.

00:46:09.900 But at the very

00:46:11.480 least,

00:46:11.740 there are going to

00:46:11.960 be people who are

00:46:12.580 on the fence in

00:46:13.320 your family.

00:46:13.920 Can you persuade

00:46:14.440 them?

00:46:15.500 Can you persuade

00:46:16.060 some of your

00:46:16.340 neighbors?

00:46:17.140 Can you persuade

00:46:17.680 some of your

00:46:18.020 coworkers?

00:46:19.200 Can you persuade

00:46:20.020 some people on

00:46:21.160 Facebook?

00:46:21.840 Maybe.

00:46:22.140 How many people

00:46:22.540 follow you on

00:46:23.020 Facebook or Twitter

00:46:23.760 or Instagram?

00:46:25.300 Can you persuade

00:46:26.000 even one or two

00:46:26.580 of them?

00:46:27.960 That's kind of

00:46:28.860 what this is about.

00:46:30.280 This election

00:46:31.240 is going to be

00:46:32.880 one on the margins.

00:46:33.700 Forget about all

00:46:34.100 the rigging.

00:46:34.560 Forget about all

00:46:34.900 the cheating

00:46:35.220 for a moment.

00:46:37.100 I'm sure that's

00:46:37.860 all there.

00:46:38.540 But we're a

00:46:40.120 rather divided

00:46:40.680 country.

00:46:41.160 We don't even

00:46:41.580 share our first

00:46:42.180 principles,

00:46:42.640 many of us

00:46:42.960 anymore.

00:46:43.560 So it's the

00:46:44.720 margins that are

00:46:45.360 going to decide

00:46:45.780 the elections.

00:46:47.880 Now,

00:46:48.340 speaking of

00:46:48.900 endorsements and

00:46:49.480 non-endorsements,

00:46:50.020 there's an amazing

00:46:50.780 story that just

00:46:51.380 came out.

00:46:51.760 The Washington

00:46:52.320 Post is not

00:46:53.260 going to endorse

00:46:53.760 Kamala Harris.

00:46:54.480 Shocking.

00:46:54.800 liberal

00:46:55.540 establishment

00:46:56.020 paper,

00:46:56.460 par excellence.

00:46:58.040 And it's

00:46:58.320 because Jeff

00:46:58.720 Bezos,

00:46:59.380 one of the

00:46:59.980 wealthiest people

00:47:00.500 in the world,

00:47:01.020 the creator of

00:47:01.480 Amazon,

00:47:02.960 Jeff Bezos

00:47:03.560 says he

00:47:05.080 won't endorse,

00:47:05.940 the Washington

00:47:06.300 Post won't

00:47:06.700 endorse,

00:47:07.520 because people

00:47:09.620 no longer trust

00:47:10.280 the media,

00:47:10.680 because people

00:47:11.140 are following

00:47:12.000 the endorsements

00:47:12.600 of others.

00:47:14.120 We'll get to

00:47:14.480 what that means.

00:47:14.960 I guess we'll

00:47:15.180 have to do it

00:47:15.500 tomorrow,

00:47:15.760 because right

00:47:16.120 now,

00:47:16.860 I'm going to

00:47:18.180 be joined by

00:47:18.740 my friend,

00:47:19.580 Ali Stuckey,

00:47:20.660 which I'm very

00:47:21.120 excited about.

00:47:22.220 The rest of

00:47:23.140 the show

00:47:23.380 continues.

00:47:23.960 You do not

00:47:24.480 want to miss

00:47:25.100 it.
