00:00:30.000 It's over for Trump.

00:00:32.020 I know that's bad news to start at election day, but I don't want to sugarcoat it.

00:00:37.340 We have been consulting the experts here at the Daily Wire.

00:00:41.520 We have been talking to all the great prognosticators and

00:00:44.940 there's just no way that Trump can win because Mercury is in retrograde or something like that.

00:00:51.200 I still stand by thinking that Joe Biden will win,

00:00:54.420 but that there will also be an unprecedented change to the nature of rulership in our presidency.

00:00:59.180 Let me explain.

00:01:00.700 Biden is having eclipses in his first house, seventh house axis.

00:01:04.820 This has happened to every presidential winner going as far back as I've researched.

00:01:08.740 Literally, like Trump in 2016, Clinton Carter, like it goes back.

00:01:12.680 His eclipses are supercharged indicators.

00:01:15.060 First house of self, it's supercharging identity forward.

00:01:17.940 And this is happening to Senator Harris too.

00:01:20.320 There are other things that affirm this, but this is a big indicator.

00:01:23.120 Along with Senator Harris entering the literal biggest peak period of her entire life,

00:01:27.080 which is not only a peak, but like a very, very impressive one for any human being.

00:01:31.020 Alongside that, the Jupiter-Saturn conjunction is happening on December 21st into 2020.

00:01:35.800 They meet every 20 years and now it's a 200 year cycle in air signs.

00:01:40.020 Historically coincides with transitions of power in a very dramatic way.

00:01:43.620 Think Caliphate, the Kyoto period, etc.

00:01:45.760 But it's close to revolutionary Pluto.

00:01:47.660 It looks like a literal new reality for the U.S.

00:01:49.900 A literal new reality for the U.S.

00:01:52.060 So obviously we can't keep our old president in the new reality.

00:01:55.120 That is what all social scientists sound like to me.

00:01:58.040 And I'm just following the science.

00:01:59.780 I'm just following the data.

00:02:00.880 So we had a good run, good four years.

00:02:03.160 It's been a good run since 1776.

00:02:05.160 But now I guess we're just in a new reality.

00:02:08.100 I'm Michael Knowles.

00:02:08.800 This is The Michael Knowles Show.

00:02:17.340 Welcome back.

00:02:18.260 And happy election day.

00:02:20.520 I hope, I hope that that witch is wrong. 0.97

00:02:23.380 She is a witch, right? 0.97

00:02:24.520 She's consulting astrology.

00:02:26.300 I don't know.

00:02:26.960 I don't know the technical term.

00:02:28.100 I don't know the scientific jargon.

00:02:29.760 My favorite comment from yesterday from Chosen Bard.

00:02:33.340 By the left's logic, would waving a gay pride flag on a gay pride parade also be like ISIS?

00:02:39.760 This is a great question.

00:02:40.880 I wondered it because yesterday they said that anyone waving a flag, you know,

00:02:44.560 so Trump supporters waving the American flag, it's just like ISIS waving the ISIS flag.

00:02:50.740 So is it true of any flag?

00:02:52.420 But I think the difference might be the trucks.

00:02:54.840 You know, ISIS had kind of a little bit older, not so nice, but there were still trucks.

00:02:59.520 And then the Trump supporters obviously have these giant trucks, you know,

00:03:03.080 huge raptors and things like that.

00:03:04.920 The gay pride flag, though, usually is being waved in like really nice, like Teslas.

00:03:10.420 So I'm not, I don't know, maybe that would change it, but probably.

00:03:14.140 I mean, I'm sure, I'm sure the left would call gay pride flags ISIS flags if they were being

00:03:18.900 waved by Trump supporters, which they often are.

00:03:21.740 It's a very complicated issue and tensions are going to be running high all day.

00:03:28.140 Probably we're going to need to chill it back, tune it back a little bit, try to relax.

00:03:32.880 Great way to do that, by the way, is with a glass of wine.

00:03:35.160 You know how much I love First Leaf is a wine club that sends personalized selections of

00:03:40.000 wine from top vineyards around the world directly to you.

00:03:44.300 The only thing better than one fantastic bottle of wine, what is it?

00:03:47.280 It's a case of award-winning wine that shows up at your doorstep.

00:03:50.780 I was super skeptical of these guys when they came on the show because a lot of wine clubs

00:03:54.860 just aren't that good.

00:03:56.340 And then I tried it.

00:03:57.500 I ordered, I got my little sampler package and I tried the wine and I said, wow, this is actually

00:04:02.160 very good wine.

00:04:02.960 And I really like this and I really like this and I really like this, but I don't really

00:04:05.060 like this.

00:04:05.560 So I go on and I rate them on the website.

00:04:07.400 And then the more you rate them, the better that First Leaf understands your palate.

00:04:12.180 So they start sending you even more tailored shipments.

00:04:15.880 This stuff is fabulous.

00:04:17.360 It is incredibly good wine.

00:04:19.060 The price is extraordinarily low.

00:04:21.120 You're not going to beat it anywhere.

00:04:22.900 And the best thing is they're experts, the ones pairing it to your taste.

00:04:25.980 Subscriptions are flexible.

00:04:26.980 They arrive on your schedule with practically zero effort.

00:04:31.100 What are you waiting for?

00:04:31.940 Get that Friday feeling like I do any day with First Leaf.

00:04:35.480 Join today.

00:04:36.260 You will get six bottles of wine for $29.95.

00:04:39.060 That is outrageous.

00:04:40.500 And free shipping.

00:04:41.360 Go to tryfirstleaf.com slash Knowles.

00:04:43.300 That is six bottles of wine for $29.95.

00:04:45.300 Go to tryfirstleaf.com slash Knowles.

00:04:49.160 So everyone's making fun of this woman on the internet for talking about how mercury 0.99

00:04:55.920 and retrograde and the eclipse and that's why Trump is going to lose.

00:05:01.180 There is nothing more frivolous about that than there is about social science generally

00:05:06.440 and all the pollsters and everyone talking.

00:05:08.540 You know, we're all trying to pretend that the people who predict the future using, I don't

00:05:14.680 know, charts or something are somehow less silly than the people who try to predict the

00:05:20.240 future looking at the stars.

00:05:23.180 Okay.

00:05:24.640 Social science is unfalsifiable, right?

00:05:29.060 So you always would hear this.

00:05:30.860 The polls were right in 2016.

00:05:32.340 The polls were right in 2016 because the polls are always right.

00:05:36.300 The polls are always right.

00:05:39.640 If the polls are wrong, like for instance, the polls say Trump is going to lose in 2016 and

00:05:43.480 then he wins, they say, well, no, the polls were really right because it was kind of close

00:05:46.280 here and it was kind of close here.

00:05:48.040 And look, if, if the polls just say that, let's say he's got a 90% chance of losing,

00:05:52.980 well, then if he wins, then the 10% was right.

00:05:55.100 So see, we're right.

00:05:55.900 Science, hashtag science, hashtag data.

00:05:59.940 This social scientific world, polling and everything attached to it is part of the same

00:06:04.300 progressive apparatus as the mainstream media, as the modern university, as big technology,

00:06:10.440 as all of these things.

00:06:11.260 And we know that the mainstream media are fake news.

00:06:14.360 We know that the universities teach fake education.

00:06:17.840 We know that, or fake scholarship.

00:06:20.160 We know that big technology suppresses certain stories that they don't like, like the Hunter

00:06:24.480 Biden story from the New York Post.

00:06:25.740 We know all of this.

00:06:26.720 And yet for some reason, we still believe the social scientists because they have science

00:06:30.120 in their name.

00:06:30.660 And even conservatives are conditioned to love the word science and to follow science and

00:06:35.500 to pretend that there are no biases here.

00:06:37.520 The models are only as good as the data that go into them.

00:06:40.380 This is the one thing Dr. Fauci got right about the entire coronavirus fiasco, which is that

00:06:45.260 the models take whatever you put in and then churn out results.

00:06:50.900 But you got it.

00:06:51.980 You have to have correct information going into the models.

00:06:55.720 Do we have correct information going into the models?

00:06:57.660 I don't know.

00:06:58.060 We've been told that the polls are oversampling Democrats.

00:06:59.980 The polls did get many things wrong in 2016.

00:07:03.440 So I don't know.

00:07:05.920 That's the one thing you're not allowed to say in modernity.

00:07:08.040 I don't know.

00:07:10.020 But that's what we have to acknowledge when we look at social science.

00:07:13.640 It is the most science-sounding thing.

00:07:16.460 So people believe it's objective.

00:07:17.760 Do you know which poll of presidential candidates has a better record than even Nate Silver,

00:07:25.740 538, certainly than New York Times or Washington Post or CNN or any of these top outlets with

00:07:32.100 the best pollsters?

00:07:33.180 Do you know what has a better record than all of them combined?

00:07:36.360 Cookies.

00:07:36.760 It's a bakery in Pennsylvania that sells cookies with each candidate's name and then they decide

00:07:44.140 based on which candidate's cookie sells the best, who's going to win the election.

00:07:48.100 The cookie poll is more accurate than Nate Silver.

00:07:53.540 And yet for some reason we all listen to Nate Silver.

00:07:55.700 A Pennsylvania bakery, this bakery is owned by, or the bakery rather is called Loachell Bakery

00:08:03.360 owned by Kathleen Loachell, has predicted the last three presidential elections correctly.

00:08:10.220 This year, the Trump cookies are outselling the Biden cookies 6 to 1.

00:08:15.900 This is good news.

00:08:16.980 I know you've all been listening to CNN polls and Nate Silver polls, so you're a little bit

00:08:20.660 down right now.

00:08:21.640 But I've got the cookie poll for you and the cookie poll says Trump is going to win.

00:08:27.980 I don't, I do care what happens in tonight's presidential election, but that is actually not the

00:08:32.040 point I'm making.

00:08:33.020 The point I'm making, what I would like to convey to you is that you should put much,

00:08:38.040 much less effort and time into reading all of those polls that everyone's trying to get

00:08:44.880 you to read.

00:08:46.040 The cookies are legitimately a better predictor than the world's most famous statistician.

00:08:52.860 I got, I got in trouble on this show maybe a month or two ago because I said that statistics

00:08:57.840 are a liberal psyop.

00:08:59.760 And I don't know, maybe it's because I use that kind of lurid language people got upset

00:09:03.940 about it.

00:09:04.920 Statistics, relatively new category of scholarship.

00:09:10.160 It developed with the modern progressive state.

00:09:12.720 It comes from the German word statistic and the Italian word statista.

00:09:17.220 And it means literally relating to the state.

00:09:20.180 So as the modern progressive administrative state develops, you get statistics, which are

00:09:25.840 the data that feed into that state.

00:09:27.120 That's how the universities play such an important role in the shaping of our modern progressive

00:09:30.980 state is because they feed the statistics that the experts who are the bureaucrats and

00:09:35.440 the administrators of the state can then use to work public policy all without any kind

00:09:39.880 of democratic input whatsoever, all without any of the kind of traditional politics where

00:09:44.440 we persuade our fellow citizens.

00:09:45.720 The difference between social science and reading tea leaves is one of perspective.

00:09:51.360 Social science assumes a material world.

00:09:54.880 Reading tea leaves and horoscopes and crystal balls and whatever else you want to look at

00:09:59.000 assumes a spiritual world.

00:10:01.900 Neither of those things will actually give you the power to predict the future.

00:10:07.280 Certainly not over the long run.

00:10:09.840 And the world is obviously spiritual.

00:10:12.280 So this is my other, beyond the cookie pole, this is my other favorite piece of science.

00:10:15.700 Social science that, because of the spiritual humor of the world, tells us something.

00:10:23.380 Karen's support Biden, Dick's support Trump.

00:10:27.880 I'm not using any slurs.

00:10:29.720 I'm not using any kind of foul language.

00:10:31.600 That is a scientific fact.

00:10:33.500 Karen's, women named Karen, tend to support Joe Biden.

00:10:38.140 And men named Richard tend to support Donald Trump.

00:10:41.500 The New York Times has been conducting polls with Siena College for two months now to look

00:10:46.540 at how people with certain names vote.

00:10:49.600 So if you, if you look here, you've got the, the most common name, the most likely popular

00:10:57.960 name to support Biden all the way down there is Karen. 1.00

00:11:01.500 Michael is up, up toward the Trump line of things.

00:11:07.200 Michael's tend to support Trump.

00:11:08.580 And then Richard, Dick, most likely popular name to support Donald Trump.

00:11:14.040 Now you can look a little more closely at this and find out that there are a few women who are 1.00

00:11:21.180 more likely to support Trump than Biden.

00:11:23.940 Linda, Jennifer, Nancy.

00:11:27.040 Those are women who will, are more likely to vote for Trump. 0.99

00:11:29.980 There is one man who's 50-50.

00:11:32.220 That's Joseph.

00:11:33.460 And then all, and Christopher too, also 50-50.

00:11:37.280 And then all the rest of the pro-Biden people.

00:11:41.180 So, so every single pro-Biden name is a woman.

00:11:45.840 Trump, which I guess should make sense, tends to be the, and some women then vote for Trump 0.96

00:11:54.800 because married women tend to vote Republican and single women tend to vote Democrat. 0.99

00:11:59.420 So we need, we need more Nancys in the world. 1.00

00:12:01.860 We need more Jennifers. 1.00

00:12:03.180 We need more Lindas. 1.00

00:12:04.840 Is that going to make the prediction for you?

00:12:06.420 Is that going to convince you that Trump is going to win?

00:12:08.680 Well, there is an, there is an actual expert.

00:12:11.600 And I don't mean an expert who wears a lab coat and he's a social scientist and he's,

00:12:15.840 he pours over spreadsheets all day.

00:12:17.280 I mean, an actual expert with actual experience in politics.

00:12:21.120 One of the best political analysts in the country, he is predicting a Trump win,

00:12:27.080 which would probably make us all feel safer.

00:12:29.280 You know what else makes us feel safer?

00:12:30.640 Ring, ring home security.

00:12:32.420 There's a thousand reasons why protecting your home matters to you.

00:12:35.720 You want to know who dropped off that package.

00:12:37.580 You want to know if your mother-in-law is going to come visit.

00:12:39.140 You want to know if roving marauders are going to be torching your neighborhood

00:12:42.240 and you can see who they are on the camera.

00:12:43.960 Either way, whatever it is, whether you're in your home,

00:12:45.840 whether you're at the office, whether you're at that by the pool,

00:12:48.800 maybe you're on vacation, you can check in on your home from anywhere with one simple app.

00:12:53.240 With ring, you can keep an eye on your home no matter where you are, right from your phone.

00:12:58.400 If anybody comes by, you will have that peace of mind anytime knowing that your home is protected.

00:13:04.480 I am going to be getting the heck out of Dodge after this election.

00:13:08.340 And I'm going to be moving to Tennessee and I'm going to have a nice house because you can't,

00:13:11.600 it's hard to get nice houses in LA, but you can in Tennessee.

00:13:14.020 And I am so excited to install that ring right on there so that I can tell when the marauders

00:13:19.820 and the in-laws are coming into town.

00:13:42.340 Beyond the cookies, beyond the horoscopes, beyond the Karens, there is a guy with experience

00:13:48.160 who is going out on a limb.

00:13:50.740 Most politicians prefer to stay vague about everything.

00:13:53.700 So they're always right.

00:13:55.040 This guy always just runs headfirst into the burning building.

00:13:58.520 Newt Gingrich, former Speaker of the House, former presidential candidate,

00:14:01.100 all-around great political analyst, he is coming out and predicting that Trump is going to win

00:14:10.160 and he's going to tell you exactly where and how he's going to win.

00:14:13.440 I think Trump wins with 324 electoral votes.

00:14:19.380 I think that the left will be in total shock by the end of the evening.

00:14:25.700 Trump will get a much larger share of the black vote than any Republican since 1960.

00:14:33.420 He will do surprisingly well with Latinos.

00:14:37.440 He will have an enormous, almost unimaginable turnout in rural and small-town America.

00:14:46.280 I was just being told a while ago about a Trump rally in Arizona that had 96 miles of cars with Trump flags.

00:14:59.080 96 miles.

00:15:01.740 That's a level of enthusiasm.

00:15:03.780 You watch two or three Biden events and then you watch two or three Trump events.

00:15:09.840 You can't have any doubt about where the weight of enthusiasm is.

00:15:16.640 And obviously none of us would have that doubt either.

00:15:19.240 I mentioned, I think yesterday on the show, I went to vote in Los Angeles and I had a MAGA hat on.

00:15:24.420 And I was a little nervous, you know, because we could be shot, you know, we were in a very liberal precinct.

00:15:30.200 And someone did yell at me.

00:15:31.640 And he yelled at me to tell me how excited he was for Trump to win.

00:15:35.620 And he liked the Daily Wire.

00:15:36.740 And he was obviously a conservative guy.

00:15:38.380 Another guy next to him yells at me.

00:15:41.620 And he was yelling at me to not put my ballot in the place where the liberals were going to steal him, but to put it in the safer place.

00:15:47.860 He was obviously a conservative too.

00:15:50.240 Plus me, plus my wife.

00:15:51.380 So you got four conservative people, all happened to be in line at the same time at a very, very liberal precinct in LA.

00:15:57.440 That's strange.

00:15:58.280 Doesn't mean I'm predicting LA is going to go for Trump.

00:16:00.620 Doesn't mean I'm predicting Greenland would go for Trump, even though that would be the most absolutely delicious thing that could happen

00:16:06.680 in political reality, you know, on earth right now.

00:16:11.740 That would be just so great.

00:16:13.180 Heads would explode if California went conservative.

00:16:16.460 I'm not saying that's going to happen.

00:16:17.680 But I am saying there is a big, big enthusiasm gap.

00:16:22.820 Now, it may well be the case that, sure, nobody likes Joe Biden, but there just are enough Democrats.

00:16:29.000 And the Democrats are motivated enough to vote, even though they don't like the guy, even though Kamala Harris is also awful,

00:16:34.800 that they're just in the numbers, they've got it.

00:16:37.760 That's what some of the polls are reflecting.

00:16:40.640 But Gingrich has experience.

00:16:42.360 And experience is a kind of expertise that is, I think, much better than some guy who studied statistics or something for too long.

00:16:50.260 Now, I love listening to predictions from people with that kind of experience.

00:16:54.580 I hate listening to predictions from people who are actually involved in counting the votes because this election very likely could come down to Pennsylvania.

00:17:03.720 It would come down to one state, Pennsylvania.

00:17:06.080 And the attorney general in Pennsylvania, a guy named Josh Shapiro, is already calling the election for Joe Biden.

00:17:14.120 I don't know if Ben is related to Josh.

00:17:17.620 They do share a last name. 0.99

00:17:18.820 If he is, I would urge Ben to call Cousin Josh and say, Josh, stop being such a jerk because Josh Shapiro, who is, he's not a campaign operative there. 0.98

00:17:29.180 He is the attorney general of the state. 0.99

00:17:31.640 He says, quote, if all the votes are added up in PA, Trump is going to lose.

00:17:37.260 That's why he's working overtime to subtract as many votes as possible from this process.

00:17:41.140 For the record, he's 0-6 against us in court.

00:17:43.420 We've protected voting rights.

00:17:44.620 Now, ignore the noise.

00:17:45.400 Vote.

00:17:46.320 Highly inappropriate stuff.

00:17:47.520 Highly inappropriate for someone who's the attorney general.

00:17:50.160 This is supposed to be a fairly by-the-books, judicious position to be so nakedly partisan and to say that they're going to keep counting these votes until they get the answer that they want, which is what he's saying, isn't he?

00:18:07.080 Part of these court fights that have been going on in Pennsylvania regards when to stop counting votes.

00:18:14.100 Because we now have universal unsolicited mail-in ballots.

00:18:17.660 We've never had that sort of thing before in the history of the United States.

00:18:20.660 There was an election day for a reason.

00:18:22.940 Then we made it an election week and then an election month.

00:18:25.920 But now, even ballots that are mailed after the due date are going to be counted in the election.

00:18:33.880 How does that work?

00:18:35.380 Wait, are you going to keep mailing ballots until the end of November?

00:18:38.220 Are you going to keep mailing them in December?

00:18:39.340 How about next March?

00:18:40.380 If you don't like something Trump did, can you mail in some ballots then?

00:18:43.160 No, we have deadlines for a reason.

00:18:45.700 And if you don't get your ballot in by the deadline, just like if you didn't show up on election day, that's it.

00:18:50.320 Sorry, Buster, your vote doesn't count.

00:18:52.320 Except, unfortunately, the courts have sided with the liberals here.

00:18:55.220 Because of people like John Roberts, that turncoat chief justice of the Supreme Court, who was nominated by a Republican, now he's a liberal.

00:19:01.920 Which is why it's important to have actual strong conservative presidents who have chutzpah to nominate actual strong conservative judges, unlike weaker Republican presidents in the past.

00:19:13.420 Now, the one thing I do love about this tweet from Josh Shapiro is this is going to be great grounds to challenge whatever corruption, crooked practices they have while they dig up a bunch of fraudulent votes in Pennsylvania if the Democrats try to steal the election.

00:19:27.080 This is going to come in real handy, because it's basically the Attorney General of Pennsylvania saying, hey, I'm committing election fraud.

00:19:33.460 Don't forget to vote.

00:19:35.020 Okay, can't wait to bring that one to court.

00:19:37.600 That is lawlessness.

00:19:39.320 How does the left justify this stuff? 0.88

00:19:41.800 The left justifies this by saying that President Trump is as bad as Hitler.

00:19:48.060 And actually, there's one prominent leftist who just said that President Trump is worse than Hitler.

00:19:54.800 That is the kind of person, this is an expert.

00:19:58.720 This person is an expert who said this, a doctor, a medical doctor. 1.00

00:20:03.200 And she could say something so stupid. 1.00

00:20:05.740 And me, I'm not an expert. 1.00

00:20:07.560 I don't even know how to fix a car. 1.00

00:20:09.100 And I would never say something so stupid. 0.98

00:20:11.740 But you know, when I am trying to fix a car, rockauto.com comes in very handy. 0.99

00:20:15.520 Rockauto.com is so much easier than walking into a store and someone demanding quick answers to things like,

00:20:20.460 Is your Odyssey an LX or an EX?

00:20:23.180 I don't know what letter comes before the X.

00:20:25.160 Just give me the part.

00:20:26.100 But they never have the part anyway.

00:20:27.360 So what they do is they go into the back.

00:20:28.780 Then they go online.

00:20:29.420 They probably go to rockauto.com.

00:20:30.840 They order the part.

00:20:31.760 And then they charge you twice as much.

00:20:33.260 Don't do that.

00:20:33.980 Skip the line.

00:20:34.660 Skip the hassle.

00:20:35.600 You can go to rockauto.com.

00:20:37.200 They've always got this great catalog to see all the parts available for your car or truck.

00:20:42.180 The catalog is so easy to navigate that even I can do it.

00:20:45.800 And the prices on rockauto.com are always reliably low.

00:20:49.020 Oh, they are the same for professionals and do-it-yourselfers.

00:20:51.760 And then whatever I am.

00:20:52.720 I don't know.

00:20:52.940 I'm neither a professional nor a do-it-yourselfer.

00:20:54.880 I'm like some third lesser category of guys who have cars.

00:20:58.640 The rockauto.com catalog is unique.

00:21:00.800 It's super easy.

00:21:02.200 You can check it out at a glance.

00:21:03.860 Great selection.

00:21:04.620 Reliably low prices.

00:21:05.500 Head on over there right now.

00:21:07.800 Rockauto.com.

00:21:08.720 And then write Knowles in their How Did You Hear About Us box so that they know that we sent you.

00:21:13.780 That is rockauto.com.

00:21:15.600 Check out all the parts available for your car or truck.

00:21:18.040 And then write Knowles in the How Did You Hear About Us box.

00:21:22.420 This woman, Dr. Bandy X. Lee, is the president of the World Mental Health Coalition.

00:21:28.520 How ironic.

00:21:29.560 And a frequent guest on CNN and MSNBC, much less ironic. 0.82

00:21:33.560 And she is saying not only is Donald Trump similar to Hitler, he's actually worse.

00:21:38.940 Donald Trump is not an Adolf Hitler.

00:21:41.560 At least Hitler improved the daily life of his followers, had discipline, and required more of himself to gain the respect of his followers. 0.95

00:21:49.600 Even with the same pathology, there are varying degrees of competence.

00:21:54.660 So, I guess I see the joke that she's trying to make.

00:22:00.380 First of all, just as a general rule, it's probably not good in mainstream public life to make jokes about Hitler for millions and millions of people.

00:22:07.600 If you're a public health expert, if you're sort of a mainstream analyst, it's just not a good idea.

00:22:14.600 But I get the joke she's trying to make.

00:22:16.300 She's saying, oh, gosh, you think Hitler's bad and you're comparing Trump. 0.92

00:22:19.080 Trump's even worse than Hitler.

00:22:20.540 Because at least Hitler was disciplined or something like that. 0.85

00:22:23.820 But then she goes on, she's so effusive in her praise of Hitler that you start to think, hold on, does this lady have a, this is going beyond the joke now.

00:22:32.640 You're kind of talking.

00:22:33.580 And yeah, and at least Hitler had those beautiful, wonderful blue eyes that you would just get lost in all that. 0.94

00:22:39.880 You say, hold on, calm down, Bandy.

00:22:41.820 Calm down.

00:22:42.320 You've taken this way, way too far.

00:22:45.780 Also, she's wrong about Hitler is the other thing because people don't know anything about history.

00:22:50.240 Hitler, let me check through the list, did not improve the daily life of his followers. 0.96

00:22:54.420 He did not have much discipline, right?

00:22:56.440 Wasn't he a drug addict?

00:22:57.640 Wasn't he a kind of, he loses temper all the time and he committed suicide, not very disciplined.

00:23:03.540 He required more of himself to gain the respect of his followers.

00:23:07.060 I don't, I don't know that that's, I don't even know what that means, but if it means anything, I don't think it's true.

00:23:12.740 So, no, I don't think Trump is Hitler.

00:23:15.900 I don't think Trump is worse than Hitler.

00:23:17.220 I think Trump is a much better fella than Hitler. 0.52

00:23:20.800 But they, they believe this stuff.

00:23:22.400 I mean, this is not just a joke.

00:23:23.700 That she's trying to make.

00:23:25.580 She is expressing a view that many people think. 0.73

00:23:28.620 I mean, I have, I have friends and family who are liberals who tell me that, that Trump is a Nazi, you know.

00:23:33.860 And I guess the implication is that Trump supporters are Nazis, which is more than a little bit offensive. 0.80

00:23:37.560 They blame him for everything.

00:23:40.680 The Atlantic writer Ann Applebaum just, just tweeted out some, some truly varsity level gaslighting.

00:23:48.020 If you're in a major metropolitan area right now, you might notice that buildings are boarded up.

00:23:52.840 If you go, if I go to Beverly Hills right now, Rodeo Drive, most famous road in, in Beverly Hills, one of the most famous roads in the world, is boarded up.

00:24:02.440 Stores have taken their merchandise, put it into warehouses because they're afraid of riots and looting.

00:24:08.080 The kind of riots and looting that we've seen for the past seven or eight months.

00:24:14.040 Do you know who Ann Applebaum at the Atlantic blames?

00:24:16.580 She blames Trump.

00:24:17.960 When conservatives celebrated Trump's election four years ago, did they know that in 2020 we would board up shops, prepare for riots and the arrival of militias, game out ways he might steal the election, protest aggressive voter suppression?

00:24:28.700 This is what he's done to America.

00:24:30.440 Hold, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on.

00:24:34.280 Does anybody really believe that the riots and looting that people are preparing for tonight would come from conservatives?

00:24:43.660 No, not even Ann Applebaum believes that.

00:24:46.120 Nobody believes that wild gangs of, of Trump supporters are going to go steal Gucci handbags on Rodeo Drive.

00:24:53.300 Nobody believes that.

00:24:54.400 It's going to be leftists.

00:24:55.700 It's going to be Biden supporters.

00:24:57.280 It's going to be the same Biden supporters that have been looting and rioting and burning down the country for the past seven months.

00:25:04.140 Not one of them, not one of the people who stole a Gucci handbag is supporting Donald Trump.

00:25:09.040 All of them, if they have a preference at all among candidates, are supporting Joe Biden.

00:25:14.760 So how's that Trump's fault?

00:25:15.800 Well, because he might steal the election.

00:25:18.400 He might steal the election.

00:25:19.480 Hillary Clinton said that Joe Biden shouldn't concede under any circumstances.

00:25:23.480 Democrats are openly, aggressively trying to steal the election.

00:25:25.820 The attorney general in Pennsylvania is calling the state for Joe Biden before the votes have been cast, before election day.

00:25:34.540 There, there, Trump is going to steal the election.

00:25:36.820 The Democrats refused to concede the 2016 election up to today, up to today.

00:25:43.400 On election night, 2016, Hillary Clinton would not come out and concede. 1.00

00:25:47.000 She sent John Podesta out there to very limply say, thanks for showing up.

00:25:52.740 Hillary's always been here for you, except now when she's supposed to be here the most.

00:25:56.960 So we're not going to concede.

00:25:58.220 And then later she had to sort of concede, but she hasn't really.

00:26:01.140 She said it was an illegitimate election that was stolen from her.

00:26:03.900 And then the bureaucracy, in collusion with the Democratic National Committee and the Hillary Clinton campaign,

00:26:10.220 tried to overturn the Trump election for three and a half years.

00:26:14.220 Republicans are trying to steal the election.

00:26:18.260 And voter suppression, what voter suppression?

00:26:20.520 How?

00:26:21.020 Show me how Donald Trump is trying to perpetrate voter suppression.

00:26:25.640 Well, he, he, he only wants citizens to vote.

00:26:28.480 Yeah, right.

00:26:29.020 That's called following the law.

00:26:31.160 Well, he thinks that you shouldn't be able to vote, you know, after election day.

00:26:34.460 Right.

00:26:34.860 Yeah, you shouldn't.

00:26:35.720 That's called following the law.

00:26:37.580 Can I vote?

00:26:38.600 Look, listen, I, maybe I didn't, I don't like how the 2008 election turned out.

00:26:41.780 Can I vote now?

00:26:42.360 Am I allowed to vote?

00:26:45.140 Maybe, maybe I didn't cast my ballot in 2008.

00:26:47.620 Maybe I want to vote now because I, and I want my vote to be heard.

00:26:50.840 Can I vote?

00:26:51.420 Can I undo the Obama presidency?

00:26:53.700 Why not?

00:26:54.180 Why can't I?

00:26:55.400 Deadlines don't matter.

00:26:56.440 Election day doesn't matter.

00:26:58.640 Why are Democrats trying to suppress the vote?

00:27:00.760 Everything this woman said is just not true.

00:27:06.380 They are the ones burning down the country.

00:27:08.280 And this, to me, is the choice on election day.

00:27:13.440 Trump supporters wave the American flag.

00:27:16.700 Biden supporters burn the American flag.

00:27:19.700 That's the choice.

00:27:22.100 That's the choice.

00:27:23.640 Michael, not all Biden supporters are burning the American flag.

00:27:26.500 Right.

00:27:26.980 I'm not saying all Biden supporters burn the American flag, but all the people burning the

00:27:31.560 American flag are Biden supporters.

00:27:34.500 Well, maybe some Trump supporter.

00:27:36.020 No, no Trump supporter has ever burned the American flag.

00:27:38.360 Not once.

00:27:39.500 Not one time.

00:27:40.060 In fact, Trump supporters treat the American flag with great respect.

00:27:44.960 I remember, I forget if it was Hillary or Obama. 1.00

00:27:47.140 During one of their campaigns, some stupid staffer took a photo at an election setup. 1.00

00:27:53.220 And the photo was of a flag. 1.00

00:27:56.020 It was black and white.

00:27:56.580 It was a flag kind of on the ground.

00:27:58.800 And they were getting ready to hang it up.

00:28:00.960 And this caused an unexpected controversy.

00:28:05.060 The Democrats didn't understand why it was controversial.

00:28:07.120 Because the Democrats don't realize that you're not supposed to let the flag touch the ground.

00:28:11.460 Patriots, people who respect our country and respect the symbols of our country, know that.

00:28:15.440 We were raised to know that.

00:28:17.580 Whenever, if I was at a Fourth of July parade or something and the flag touched the ground,

00:28:20.320 my mother would say, Michael, you can't.

00:28:21.600 The flag can never touch the ground.

00:28:23.460 Never.

00:28:25.600 Many people in this country don't know that anymore.

00:28:28.700 And when you have no respect for the symbol, you have no respect for the symbolized.

00:28:33.780 That is what symbols do, right?

00:28:34.980 Symbols represent things.

00:28:35.960 And if you disrespect what is being, if you disrespect what is representing the thing,

00:28:40.380 you are disrespecting the thing itself.

00:28:42.820 And now, I mean, I think we know this intuitively.

00:28:45.920 Why else would people burn the flag?

00:28:47.160 It's just a piece of cloth, right?

00:28:48.940 No, it's a symbol of the country.

00:28:50.860 Why else protest the flag, like at NFL games or at Democratic caucus meetings?

00:28:55.680 Why protest the flag?

00:28:57.580 It's a piece of cloth.

00:28:58.500 No, it's because it's a symbol of the thing itself.

00:29:00.160 And the left doesn't like this country.

00:29:01.580 And they've been engaged in a more than century-long campaign to undermine this country.

00:29:06.960 Because they believe it's rotten from the beginning.

00:29:08.820 They believe the founding was not in 1776 or 1620 when the Mayflower arrived.

00:29:12.660 They think it was 1619 when the slaves got here.

00:29:15.140 That this country is defined by every rotten thing it's ever done and none of the good things.

00:29:20.460 And that all of our country's enemies are defined by only the good things they've ever done and none of the rotten things.

00:29:25.600 And if they can't find enough rotten things to accuse America of committing, they'll make them up.

00:29:30.900 That's what they're doing.

00:29:31.620 Oh, the past was bad.

00:29:34.200 Now we've got to move into the future and the future is going to be so much better.

00:29:37.600 We're the ones we've been waiting for.

00:29:39.060 Thank goodness we're here to liberate us from that awful oppressive past of America that gave us our lives.

00:29:44.440 Those awful forefathers who gave us everything we have in this country.

00:29:48.260 Every political institution. 0.99

00:29:49.700 Those awful rotten people. 0.99

00:29:50.920 That's the election. 0.99

00:29:51.680 Do you like the country?

00:29:52.440 Do you not like the country?

00:29:53.400 If you like the country, vote for Trump.

00:29:54.660 If you don't like the country, vote for Biden.

00:29:56.640 And be on the side of the people.

00:29:58.280 Burning it down, which makes sense, I guess.

00:30:00.600 And lighting the flag on fire and destroying stores and assaulting people in the street. 0.94

00:30:05.720 Those are the choices.

00:30:06.840 But Michael, Trump's a, or Biden rather is a sort of moderate guy.

00:30:10.220 He's not a radical.

00:30:11.980 I don't know.

00:30:12.520 Maybe he is.

00:30:12.940 Maybe he isn't.

00:30:13.320 I don't think he believes anything at all.

00:30:14.340 I think he's a complete empty suit. 0.91

00:30:15.740 And I think he's got an empty head.

00:30:17.260 But what I do know is he has sided with the people who are attacking this country and who are lighting the flags on fire.

00:30:22.820 And so I'm not on his side.

00:30:24.640 I'm on Trump's side.

00:30:25.280 It's amazing the, the degree to which anti-Americanism has, has affected our country.

00:30:32.820 So much so that full professional sports teams are now pretending that this isn't even the American country at all, which we will get to in one second.

00:30:42.180 But you understand how important this election is.

00:31:14.340 Many people don't believe that this even is our country.

00:31:28.520 And this is not just some radical left idea that you learn in some critical studies class in college.

00:31:35.220 This is being pushed by major sports teams.

00:31:38.720 So the Chicago Blackhawks, now, before any of their matches, I don't even know what are they, games, matches,

00:31:44.340 I don't know, they read this statement.

00:31:46.540 This is a statement that they will now read before every single one of these games.

00:31:51.880 The Chicago Blackhawks acknowledge that the team, its foundation, and the spaces we maintain, work and compete within,

00:31:58.720 stand upon the traditional homelands of the Miami, Sauk, Fox, Ho-Chunk, Menaminie, and the Council of the Three Fires, the Ojibwe, Odawa, and Potawatomi nations.

00:32:12.900 We understand that this land holds immense significance for its original stewards, the Native nations, and the peoples of this region.

00:32:20.260 We would also like to recognize that our team's namesake, Sauk War leader Blackhawk, serves as a continuous reminder of our responsibility to the Native American communities we live amongst and draw inspiration from.

00:32:31.780 What? What?

00:32:37.860 First of all, the original inhabitants of this land, what is an original inhabitant of this land?

00:32:45.180 Is it the tribe? Is it the sub-tribes, the tribes within the tribes? Is it the tribes that conquered the other tribes?

00:32:50.800 If I go down to the southwest United States, which is the United States now, by the way.

00:32:56.360 It's not Apache land, it's not Comanche land, it's not whatever land. 1.00

00:33:01.220 It's the United States, it's American land.

00:33:02.640 And I go down there, and all of a sudden I get some pang of American guilt.

00:33:06.640 I don't know why I would, but let's say I did.

00:33:08.060 I think I'm immune to that, but let's say I did.

00:33:10.780 Would I then read a statement and say, I acknowledge that I am standing on Comanche land?

00:33:15.600 I guess I could, because we did take it from the Comanche. 1.00

00:33:19.340 But the Comanche took it from the Apache. 0.98

00:33:22.400 So should I, who should I acknowledge in my statement of guilt?

00:33:27.560 The Comanche or the Apache? 0.97

00:33:29.260 Probably none of them.

00:33:30.540 Who are we, which tribe are we, I guess they're going to acknowledge all of the tribes.

00:33:33.900 Because every tribe and every other people and every other place and every other country on the face of the earth,

00:33:38.880 from the beginning of civilization to the present, has been so much better than us.

00:33:43.220 We've committed all these crimes.

00:33:44.360 I don't think so.

00:33:45.720 The crime that they're accusing the United States of committing is the crime of conquest.

00:33:49.900 Which, in some instances is true, in some instances isn't true.

00:33:53.740 In some instances we had treaties that we upheld, in some instances we had treaties we didn't upheld,

00:33:57.440 and in some places we just won territory through outright war.

00:34:01.200 But you know what I do know about the law of conquest?

00:34:05.200 Every other people throughout all of human history has exercised it as well.

00:34:09.460 Why uniquely is the United States to feel sorry for this, to apologize, to rend our garments and gnash our teeth?

00:34:19.180 The reason is because we're the most advanced country in the history of the world.

00:34:24.540 Advanced in many ways, too.

00:34:25.580 I'm not saying we're this absolutely perfect virtuous country.

00:34:28.800 We kill a million babies a year. 0.98

00:34:29.860 We're advanced in barbarism as well.

00:34:32.460 But we are advanced.

00:34:33.580 We are much more advanced and sophisticated in any broad sense of that term, country, than anyone else.

00:34:41.840 And we feel bad about that.

00:34:43.520 So we have to pretend that we're not, and we have to pretend it was all ill-gotten gains.

00:34:49.000 But it wasn't.

00:34:49.640 It wasn't.

00:34:50.140 Part of the reason why our civilization has been able to advance so much,

00:34:54.440 and, by the way, to be really nice to everyone else in the world,

00:34:56.780 and let people come in at a higher rate than anyone else ever on Earth.

00:35:01.580 The largest mass migration of human beings has occurred over the past 60 years ever in recorded history.

00:35:08.220 And it's occurred into the United States because of how generous we are in immigration.

00:35:13.700 So the United States has been able to achieve that degree of prominence

00:35:16.980 because of a specific culture and a specific civilization, specific ideas and specific people,

00:35:22.460 that now the flag burners want to tear down.

00:35:27.460 They want to overturn them.

00:35:29.680 And that will not make the world better off for everybody else.

00:35:32.200 That will plunge us all into even greater barbarism.

00:35:35.860 So what map are we looking at tonight?

00:35:38.040 Who's going to win?

00:35:39.320 Trump or the flag burners? 0.96

00:35:40.440 Who's going to win?

00:35:41.620 My map.

00:35:42.480 And you know me.

00:35:43.020 I don't consult the horoscope.

00:35:44.920 I don't have a cookie shop.

00:35:47.640 But I did make my prediction.

00:35:50.080 So my map is all, it's going to be all red and plus Greenland.

00:35:57.120 So Greenland also red.

00:35:58.400 So a lot of people talking about 538, 538 electoral votes.

00:36:01.400 That's how many.

00:36:01.960 I'm going to say 623 because I'm going to give Greenland 85 electoral votes.

00:36:05.980 Why?

00:36:06.500 I don't know.

00:36:07.020 Why not?

00:36:07.600 It's a big, big landmass.

00:36:08.520 I don't know how many people are there, but that's fine.

00:36:10.040 It seems big.

00:36:10.980 That's what I want.

00:36:11.740 And I'm, I'm only half joking.

00:36:13.640 I'm only, I don't, I don't think the whole entire country is going to vote for Trump.

00:36:17.560 But I don't know what's going to happen.

00:36:22.340 If, if I wake up tomorrow, well, I guess I'll still be on set tonight.

00:36:25.840 If I find out tonight that Joe Biden won narrowly, wouldn't be surprised.

00:36:31.460 If I find Trump, Trump won narrowly, wouldn't be surprised.

00:36:33.520 If I find out that Biden won in a big way, you know, he got a huge number of electoral votes.

00:36:39.700 I guess I wouldn't be that surprised.

00:36:41.620 That would, that would surprise me a little bit more.

00:36:43.320 And if I found out Trump won 40 states or some, some crazy, you know, some insane number

00:36:48.040 like that, I also wouldn't be that surprised.

00:36:51.760 I don't know.

00:36:52.960 The models are only as good as the data you put in.

00:36:55.780 And we're in such a bizarre year with the unprecedented widespread unsolicited mail-in

00:37:01.780 ballots with the coronavirus lockdowns.

00:37:05.180 I guess coronavirus is not unprecedented.

00:37:07.300 We've had epidemics like this and actually much worse than this before.

00:37:10.280 But the lockdowns, the politicization of the coronavirus by the left, mostly, is unprecedented.

00:37:17.180 The degree of fraud that you've seen, and I'm not talking about fraud even at the polling

00:37:21.220 places, although Attorney General Shapiro should make us a little worried about that

00:37:24.400 in Pennsylvania, but I'm talking about the fraud in the bureaucracy itself.

00:37:28.280 This is the first coup d'etat in my lifetime.

00:37:30.940 What happened in 2016 to the present is the first attempted coup in my lifetime.

00:37:36.280 There have been others in the United States, but first one since I've been alive.

00:37:40.280 So I don't know how to factor that into my calculations.

00:37:44.280 There is a strange phenomenon going on, which is these organic Trump parades.

00:37:50.500 You know, because there haven't been quite as many rallies, I think Trump's done something

00:37:53.160 like 12 rallies in the last few days.

00:37:55.160 I mean, he's just absolutely killing it in the last few days on the campaign trail.

00:37:58.880 But because there haven't been as many rallies and formal events as there have been in years

00:38:04.240 past, people are just creating their own Trump parades.

00:38:08.880 I've seen them in California.

00:38:10.940 I've seen them all over the place.

00:38:12.100 People get in their cars or their trucks, and they have an American flag, and they have

00:38:14.460 a Trump flag, and maybe a Gadsden flag, something like that.

00:38:17.440 And they go down, and they go on for miles and miles and miles.

00:38:20.960 You don't see that.

00:38:24.440 You haven't seen that.

00:38:25.020 But you don't see any Biden parades.

00:38:26.460 There are no Biden.

00:38:27.140 Not one time has there been a Biden parade.

00:38:31.100 That shows you that something is going on in the country.

00:38:33.720 I suspect that enthusiasm difference is going to factor into the election results, even if

00:38:41.380 it doesn't, though.

00:38:41.920 And let's say that there isn't fraud for a second.

00:38:43.580 That still tells you something about our politics, because you've got a country that is so starkly

00:38:51.180 divided, and not just about this issue or that issue, not just about taxes, not just about

00:38:55.920 certain rates of immigration, not even about really serious issues like abortion, but about

00:39:01.320 the country itself.

00:39:03.620 Some people like the country, want more of it, have loyalty to their country, love it, and

00:39:09.020 other people don't love it.

00:39:10.360 They hate it.

00:39:11.080 They hate it.

00:39:12.180 They want to fundamentally transform it.

00:39:15.120 I'm not saying this even as like a cheap political shot.

00:39:17.600 If you ask them, they'd say, yeah, I hate this country.

00:39:20.460 I love what this country, what they would usually say is this.

00:39:22.760 No, I love our country.

00:39:24.040 I hate what we were, but I love what we could be.

00:39:26.520 I hate what we are now, but I love what we could be if we only live up to the ideals that

00:39:31.320 I invented five seconds ago.

00:39:33.780 Not that George Washington or Thomas Jefferson invented, but that I invented.

00:39:36.580 Sure, if you hate what a country is now, and you hate what a country was in the past, and

00:39:43.920 you enjoy what you think the country could be in the future because you've got a crystal

00:39:47.500 ball, that means you hate your country.

00:39:50.880 You like your daydreams, and you hate your country.

00:39:55.500 And that's a fundamental distinction.

00:39:58.000 Chesterton famously said that there's a thought that stops thought, and that's the only thought

00:40:02.640 that ought to be stopped, that there are principles that we have to take on faith.

00:40:08.280 There are axioms that we need to begin with in this country, in any country.

00:40:13.200 And one of them is you have to love your country.

00:40:14.780 You have to have patriotism.

00:40:15.760 You have to support it.

00:40:16.600 You have to not try to destroy it.

00:40:17.800 You don't have to try not to subvert it.

00:40:20.540 And we're having a disagreement over that question right now.

00:40:23.900 So even, let's say Biden wins fair and square.

00:40:27.440 Hope doesn't happen, but let's say it does.

00:40:28.660 That puts us in a very, very bad position.

00:40:32.860 You've seen the riots.

00:40:34.020 You've seen the mayhem from the military wing of the Democratic Party, known as Antifa or BLM.

00:40:41.180 Just the other day, the cops were getting ready for the election unrest.

00:40:45.920 Listen to the sort of things that these leftist activists scream at cops. 1.00

00:40:50.120 I hope all of your children get raped and killed. 1.00

00:40:54.660 You'll have this grease in society. 1.00

00:40:58.120 That's, that's who we're dealing with, folks.

00:40:59.980 No, that's just the extreme.

00:41:01.220 That's just one person.

00:41:02.220 It's not just one person.

00:41:03.360 It's not just one person.

00:41:04.300 And it's not just going on in New York.

00:41:05.860 They've torched New York.

00:41:07.120 They've torched DC.

00:41:08.220 They've torched Chicago.

00:41:09.520 They've torched LA.

00:41:10.860 They've torched all over this country.

00:41:13.900 Atlanta.

00:41:14.540 They've all over.

00:41:16.320 Kenosha.

00:41:16.900 I don't know.

00:41:17.280 I can name however many more towns.

00:41:19.400 This is a national problem and an ideological problem and a political party problem because

00:41:25.220 all of these people are aligning with the Democratic Party and not one of them is aligning with

00:41:29.180 the Republican Party.

00:41:31.120 And, and the way that we deal with these cultural problems is not to throw our hands up in the

00:41:35.440 air and say, well, okay, I guess we've got to just do better at persuading our citizens.

00:41:39.560 Now, the time to persuade is now.

00:41:40.880 And the way that we do that is in politics.

00:41:43.480 The way that we deal with these political questions is in politics.

00:41:46.280 All too often, conservatives have tried to make this neat distinction between culture

00:41:50.660 and politics.

00:41:52.120 And there's something to be said for that because the movies, I guess, are different

00:41:54.960 than how we vote.

00:41:57.600 The mainstream media is kind of in the middle there, right?

00:42:00.840 But there's no neat distinction here.

00:42:03.020 Politics is not just some tiny little thing that we should, we should surrender power on.

00:42:07.280 Politics is how we live together as people and how we persuade one another and how we can

00:42:12.280 govern ourselves.

00:42:13.140 Comes from the Greek polis, the city states, how citizens come together.

00:42:17.680 Politics is a much broader realm than I think many conservatives have been willing to admit.

00:42:22.320 And today is the day that we express our views on that.

00:42:26.740 Stakes could not be higher.

00:42:29.560 And that is why the great Taylor Swift, our hero, is coming out to sing our country back

00:42:37.000 into a Democrat malaise.

00:42:40.320 Why are so many powerful people trying to make it so difficult for us to vote?

00:42:47.500 It keeps me awake, the look on your face, the moment you heard the news.

00:42:52.860 You're screaming inside and frozen in time.

00:42:55.520 You did all that you could do.

00:42:57.800 And the big bad man is big back and their hands are stained with red.

00:43:02.420 Oh, how quickly they forget.

00:43:09.740 They aren't gonna help us.

00:43:12.480 Too busy helping themselves.

00:43:15.080 They aren't gonna change this.

00:43:17.520 We gotta do it ourselves.

00:43:20.120 They think that it's over.

00:43:22.760 But it's just begun.

00:43:25.180 Only one thing can save us.

00:43:27.360 Let me put it on you.

00:43:28.540 It's American flag.

00:43:29.360 You gotta hold on to that for the rest of your life.

00:43:39.420 Obviously, none of that is true.

00:43:41.140 She opens up with a Kamala Harris clip.

00:43:42.740 Why are so many people trying to make it so hard to vote?

00:43:44.580 It has never been easier to vote.

00:43:46.060 You don't need an ID.

00:43:46.960 You probably don't need to be an American citizen. 0.81

00:43:48.680 You don't need to request an absentee ballot.

00:43:50.460 You don't need to show up on election day.

00:43:51.920 You can vote basically whenever, apparently after the election, perhaps, or at least after

00:43:57.140 the deadline to send in your mail-in ballot.

00:44:00.500 It's never, ever been easier.

00:44:01.840 It's much too easy to vote right now because the system itself is open to such fraud.

00:44:08.720 And the men, these men are just enriching themselves.

00:44:12.020 They're enriching themselves.

00:44:12.740 Donald Trump doesn't take a salary.

00:44:14.980 He's lost a billion dollars in office helping the country.

00:44:18.060 None of that is true.

00:44:20.280 None of that is true.

00:44:21.020 I hope it's just desperation from our friends on the left.

00:44:24.360 I hope the election goes well for us tonight.

00:44:26.660 We will find out.

00:44:27.600 We're obviously going to have that election coverage.

00:44:30.960 In any case, I would like to express a little bit of gratitude for how fun the past four years

00:44:36.840 have been.

00:44:37.460 I hope it continues for another four years.

00:44:39.080 I hope we get another replay of election night 2016.

00:44:43.180 So I will say goodbye to you for now until our election night later.

00:44:46.540 And I will play you out on a glorious montage from 2016.

00:44:51.800 Just last week, he confirmed to the National Review that he is again considering a run in 2016.

00:44:57.420 Do it.

00:44:59.200 Do it.

00:45:00.340 Look at me.

00:45:01.580 Do it.

00:45:02.880 I will personally write you a campaign check now on behalf of this country,

00:45:08.640 which does not want you to be president, but which badly wants you to run.

00:45:12.760 Which Republican candidate has the best chance of winning the general election?

00:45:17.460 Of the declared ones right now, Donald Trump.

00:45:20.360 President Obama will go down as perhaps the worst president in the history of the United States,

00:45:33.440 exclamation point, at real Donald Trump.

00:45:37.740 Well, at real Donald Trump, at least I will go down as a president.

00:45:43.920 So right now, we have Hillary's about 75 or an 80 percent favorite. 0.63

00:45:51.260 We have different versions of the forecast you can look at.

00:45:52.920 The poll has Hillary Clinton up by double digits nationally, 12 points, 50 to 38 in a four-way race. 0.53

00:45:58.340 Clinton leading in Florida.

00:45:59.560 Clinton leading in North Carolina.

00:46:00.900 Clinton leading in Ohio.

00:46:02.300 Clinton leading in Nevada.

00:46:03.360 I could go on and on and on.

00:46:06.020 I continue to believe Mr. Trump will not be president.

00:46:10.200 And so, right now, Mr. Trump, to answer your call for political honesty,

00:46:14.500 I just want to say, you're not going to be president, all right?

00:46:19.380 It's been fun.

00:46:21.220 It's been great.

00:46:23.200 I love you.

00:46:25.360 What?

00:46:26.320 What?

00:46:27.060 But come on.

00:46:28.040 Come on, buddy.

00:46:28.960 We have a major projection right now.

00:46:31.520 Donald Trump will take Ohio.

00:46:34.060 That's the NM projects.

00:46:35.000 Donald Trump will carry the state of Florida.

00:46:37.680 Huge win for Donald Trump.

00:46:39.520 Donald Trump, while we project, will win in Kentucky, in Indiana, with its 11 electoral votes.

00:46:45.940 West Virginia, Florida, Tennessee, Mississippi, South Carolina, Alabama, North Dakota,

00:46:52.720 with its three electoral votes.

00:46:54.180 And South Dakota, Texas, Arkansas, Louisiana, the state of Montana, North Carolina, Georgia,

00:47:01.520 Iowa, Utah, Wisconsin, Arizona, Kansas, with its six electoral votes.

00:47:07.340 Nebraska, with its five electoral votes.

00:47:10.000 And Wyoming, with its three electoral votes.

00:47:13.080 Sorry to keep you waiting.

00:47:14.520 Complicated business.

00:47:18.020 Thank you, everybody.

00:47:19.480 We're not, we are not going to be taking any questions.

00:47:22.780 Thank you, guys.

00:47:23.360 We're not going to be taking any questions.

00:47:53.360 We're produced by Ben Davies.

00:47:54.980 Executive producer, Jeremy Boring.
