00:00:33.120The Stone Zone, entertaining and informative on the Red Apple Podcast Network.
00:00:49.820This is The Stone Zone with Roger Stone.
00:00:53.600People love him and respect him. Roger Stone.
00:00:56.540Now, get in the zone. It's the Stone Zone. Here's Roger Stone.
00:01:03.620Welcome into the Stone Zone, the hottest political radio show in America today.
00:01:10.220While Democrat hopes of winning the House of Representatives and flipping the seat of upstate Congresswoman Elise Stefanik
00:01:17.500were dealt a serious blow last Friday when Republican State Assemblyman Robert Smullen
00:01:23.500bowed to President Trump's wishes and dropped his plan to run on the conservative line
00:01:29.120after being soundly defeated in the Republican primary by Anthony Constantino,
00:01:35.300the chief executive of Sticker Mule, a multi-million dollar online printing company.
00:01:41.980Although Constantino was opposed by all 12 of the Republican county chairs, the New York State Republican Committee, and I believe every member of the Republican House congressional delegation, with the exception of Elise Stefanik, who issued a late endorsement of Constantino,
00:02:02.360He won his primary by 20 points, racking up the largest number of votes in the history of that congressional district by a congressional district of either party.
00:02:15.660This is significant because New York State is one of the few countries, I believe at this point, it's the only country, pardon me, the only state in the country where one's name can appear on multiple state ballots, but you win the cumulative vote.
00:02:32.360So this is a major victory, not only for Anthony Constantino, also a major victory for House Speaker Mike Johnson, who endorsed Constantino after the Republican primary.
00:02:46.800The state conservative party chair says that they'll likely leave their line blank.
00:02:52.820But it's also interesting that Constantino petitioned his way on the ballot as the candidate of the taxpayers party.
00:03:00.860So even had he lost the primary, which, of course, he didn't, he would have remained on the ballot anyway.
00:03:08.900This is going to be not as close a race as some have thought.
00:03:13.440Democrats have nominated a local farmer, Blake Gebenden.
00:03:19.080I think I said that right, who will now try to move to the center, pretend to be a moderate in the Republican leaning district.
00:03:26.460Mr. Constantino has self-funded his own campaign, meaning he doesn't accept campaign contributions from lobbyists or big pharma, big agriculture, or any special interest, big defense contractors.
00:03:45.120And he had what I thought was one of the greatest political slogans of all time.
00:03:50.580Anthony Constantino, nobody's man but yours.
00:03:54.940This is not going to be the close race that Democrats have been hoping for with a three-way split.
00:04:00.280In fact, the last time Democrats won this district was when the Republican Party and the Conservative Party endorsed two different candidates.
00:04:08.840That's not going to happen now through the actions of President Donald Trump.
00:04:13.880Meanwhile, President Trump marked the official launch of Trump accounts on Monday,
00:04:19.160hosting the heads of the New York State Stock Exchange and NASDAQ in the Oval Office
00:04:23.400and symbolically ringing the opening bell, but doing it from the White House.
00:04:29.000The new child investment accounts went live on the 4th of July as part of the One Big Beautiful Bill,
00:04:37.920Under this program, every eligible U.S. citizen born between January 1st, 2025 and December 31st, 2028
00:04:47.140will receive a Trump account which is seeded with a one-time $1,000 federal deposit from the government.
00:04:56.100Parents will be able to contribute up to $5,000 per year with up to $2,500 coming from an employer tax-free.
00:05:04.440Children under 18 who were born before 2025 can also open accounts,
00:05:10.440although they will not receive the federal seed money.
00:05:13.160The White House Council on Economic Advisors projects that a child whose family contributes the annual maximum could have more than $300,000 on end by age 18 and roughly $1 million by age 28, depending, of course, on market returns.
00:05:31.160returns. Dell Technologies founder Michael Dell also joined the event and announced a private
00:05:38.040sector contribution, saying that they would put $6.25 billion into the account to provide $250
00:05:45.060for each of the 25 million eligible children who were born between 2016 and 2024. Trump called the
00:05:54.640accounts a miracle, and he encouraged parents to sign up. Trump accounts are teaching children to
00:06:01.580invest, help families build wealth, and tying the next generation directly to America's economic
00:06:08.680success through opportunity, savings, and capitalism. Donald Trump will be known for this,
00:06:15.720just as Franklin Roosevelt was known for social security. This is the way to fight back against
00:06:21.440the culture of dependency that previous administrations have fostered, in my opinion,
00:06:25.700the Trump administration's restoring the American dream through wise programs that will help build
00:06:30.860intergenerational wealth so that somebody will no longer need a welfare state and the massive
00:06:36.280bureaucracy that accompanies it. In the meantime, a shocking new report released by the Department
00:06:42.600of Homeland Security Inspector General confirms that many Americans already feared the Secret
00:06:49.200Service missed repeated chances to stop the July 13, 2024 assassination attempt against President
00:06:56.600Donald Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania. This shocking 64-page report says the agency missed
00:07:03.520multiple opportunities to detect, prevent, and disrupt the attack on Thomas Crooks, who climbed
00:07:09.300on the roof of the American Glass Research Complex roughly 155 years from the stage.
00:07:15.880I personally am not even certain that Thomas Matthew Crooks is the shooter.
00:07:20.480I find it curious that his body was almost immediately cremated, that his social media left no footprint whatsoever.
00:07:29.920At the time, the FBI told us that they were unable to break into his encrypted phone.
00:07:34.880There are also reports that he had some kind of remote device on him.
00:07:39.780Immediately after the shooting, I got a tip from a Pennsylvania state police contact of mine
00:07:48.020who told me that rather than Thomas Matthew Crooks, that the shooter was a man named Maxwell Yerick.
00:07:54.700Mr. Yerick seems to have disappeared from sight.
00:07:56.960I think this warrants more investigation.
00:08:00.960It is suspicious to me that we now learn that there was no communications room set up
00:08:06.880by the three federal agencies charged with protecting Donald Trump,
00:08:11.780then candidate Trump, former President Trump.
00:08:14.320That means that the state, local, and federal police were all on different radio frequencies
00:08:23.140and therefore could not communicate with each other.
00:08:26.660So there were multiple reports just from common citizens of a man on a roof,
00:08:32.320Man with a rangefinder up to 90 minutes before the shooting, yet for some strange reasons, the Secret Service took no action.
00:08:42.220According to investigators, this was referred to a Secret Service supervisor who was handed the task in turn to a counter drone operator who worked for the Secret Service.
00:08:54.300According to the report, that operator searched online for the location, was still searching when Crooks actually opened fire.
00:09:01.880Two minutes later, Crooks fired two eight rounds, grazing President Trump's ear, killing one rally-goer, fire predator Corey Compentori, and injuring others before being shot by a counter-terrorist.
00:09:17.620My question remains, if the counter-terrorist had the shooter, let's assume it was Mr. Crooks for the sake of this discussion, in his sights, why did he wait for him to get off eight rounds before killing him?
00:09:31.140The report also found that there were 102 radio transmissions about crooks, which never reached the Secret Service personnel because, as I said, no joint communications room had been established with local agencies.
00:09:44.900Warnings included reports of a man with a rangefinder, a man on the roof, and finally a man with a long gun for up to 90 minutes prior to the shooting.
00:09:56.660This was a catastrophic failure to act.
00:09:59.080The American people deserve accountability, because protecting a president, especially one facing unprecedented political hostility, cannot be treated after an afterthought.
00:10:09.220I'm afraid this is going to end up really being like Lee Harvey Oswald and President John F. Kennedy.
00:10:15.060I'm afraid decades from now, there will still be uncertainty about who really shot the president.
00:10:21.300The good news is we thank God that he was unkilled.
00:10:26.460Meanwhile, President Donald Trump and the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu
00:10:30.480are expected to meet in the upcoming days following what appears to be
00:10:34.260an important clarification of the U.S.-Israeli relationship.
00:10:38.820Trump told Axios the two leaders should meet after the returns
00:10:42.400from the annual NATO summit in Ankara, Turkey.
00:10:46.960The comment came after Netanyahu called to congratulate President Trump
00:10:50.600on America's 250 Independence Day celebration.
00:12:23.980The two leaders agreed to meet soon in the United States
00:12:26.640as soon as President Trump is never going to outsource American policy
00:12:30.600to any foreign leader, and Israel must realize that.
00:12:35.280He's reminding allies and adversaries alike
00:12:37.840that America first means that we lead, our allies respect us,
00:12:41.220and peace comes through strength, not weakness, chaos, or blind loyalty.
00:12:47.600Meanwhile, a new White House report released on Independence Day
00:12:51.660is taking direct aim at the Smithsonian Institution,
00:12:55.400accusing the National Museum of American History of being captured by a radical left-wing ideology.
00:13:00.740It was only weeks ago that the Smithsonian and the National Museum of American History
00:13:06.480incorrectly reported that President Richard Nixon had been impeached,
00:13:11.980when in fact he resigned ahead of impeachment.
00:13:14.780Further effort to destroy his public image, as if they haven't done enough damage to it already.
00:13:20.600The report, titled Saving America Story, argues the museum has moved away from honoring America's founding, its achievements, and its national heritage, and instead now promotes a narrative designed to devalue the country and demoralize our citizens.
00:13:38.480According to the White House, the museum has become a vehicle for intersectional critical theory, an ideology the report describes as rooted in Marxism and focused on portraying American history through overlapping systems of oppression.
00:13:55.220The report says this approach fails to give young Americans access to the inspiring and unifying parts of the nation's story.
00:14:03.740They literally no longer teach history in the public schools.
00:14:08.140My own granddaughter came home to tell me that Abraham Lincoln was a racist, which, of course, he wasn't.
00:14:14.480President Trump has made restoring patriotic history a major priority.
00:14:18.160In March, he signed an executive order called Restoring Truth and Sanity to American History, warning that revisionist, anti-American narratives that cast America's founding principles as racist, sexist, oppressive, or irredeemably flawed should be rejected.
00:14:36.360The Independence Day report claims that the National Reviews of American History, paid for with your tax dollars, has minimized the founders, problematized the American 20th anniversary, removed American history from its mission statement, and promoted activist messages on race, immigration, and gender.
00:14:58.040Smithsonian has long influenced school curriculum and public understanding of the American story.
00:15:03.380The fact that they are acting essentially as a subsidiary of the recently busted Southern Poverty Law Center,
00:15:09.440where they were actually going out and paying white supremacists in order to create a problem that they could then raise money to solve, should tell people a lot.
00:15:18.600The president wants to make America patriotic again, and he's reportedly very, very angry about these efforts to rewrite America's history.
00:15:29.460Taxpayer-funded institutions like the Smithsonian and like the Museum of American History should tell the truth about America's past and our historic story.
00:15:41.280They should never teach children to despise their country.0.61
00:15:44.780That only happens in countries that are seized from within.
00:15:48.080Instead, they should tell the full truth about America and the fact that we are the greatest nation on Earth, despite the fact that we are not perfect.
00:15:57.820You're listening to The Stone Zone. I'm Roger Stone, and we'll be right back.
00:16:02.360This is The Stone Zone with Roger Stone.
00:16:05.780And he's a great, great person, Roger Stone.
00:19:28.380While the rest of us were celebrating the 4th of July and America's independence,
00:19:32.580A terrifying poll conducted by the Cato Institute in conjunction with Morning Consult showed that 46% of Americans do not really know what the 250th celebration of America's independence actually commemorated.
00:19:53.28061% couldn't tell you what the 4th of July was about.
00:19:56.560Just over half of all respondents correctly identified the anniversary as marking the adoption of the Declaration of Independence in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, while only about one-third of Gen Z got it right.
00:20:10.220These results are a warning sign of something I spoke about earlier in the show, and that is that our public schools no longer teach American history, and when they do, they teach a stilted, biased, politically correct, woke version of it.
00:20:24.640These results are the warning sign of the decades of these weakened civilized education and the cultural left's efforts to teach young Americans to view their country with hatred.
00:20:34.860Instead of learning about the founding era patriots and the sacrifices they made for our liberty, they're leaning on drivel like gender bending, DEI, and Marxist critical theory and other crazy heresies upon our nation.
00:20:49.480This is wholly unacceptable and puts the future of America in grave peril.
00:20:53.700The good news is that most Americans still hold patriotic views.
00:20:58.780In this same poll, 76% had a favorable view of the founding country.
00:21:06.02086% said they were grateful to be Americans, and 79% said they were proud to be Americans.
00:21:12.520A strong majority also still believe America is in the land of opportunity,
00:21:16.820and their concern about the country shows that they believe the American dream is still available to them.
00:21:23.700But at the same time, the poll shows concerns about America's direction.
00:21:28.16057% believe America has moved away from its founding principles,
00:21:31.780with 22% saying it moved far away from its founding principles.
00:21:36.720Americans still love their country and we want to be a united people,
00:21:40.080but unless we understand and teach about our founding
00:21:42.400and recognize the importance of liberty,
00:21:45.040we're going to lose our nation and our freedom long, long before.
00:21:49.280MAGA is about fomenting the patriotic revival needed
00:21:52.740to ensure America gets another 250 years.
00:21:57.400Hollywood is helping undermine that idea every single day.
00:22:00.860It is once again inserting itself into American politics,
00:22:04.360this time using the nation's 250th anniversary
00:22:07.840to push their familiar anti-Trump message.
00:22:11.640A nearly 10-minute video released for America's semi-quincentennial
00:22:15.960featured liberal celebrities including Mark Ruffalo, Ted Danson, Judd Aptow,
00:22:21.400and others reading from Timothy Snyder's book, On Tyranny, 20 Lessons from the 20th Century.
00:22:28.580Video frames the current political moment as a battle against tyranny.
00:22:33.380That's ironic, Kim, coming from the people who advocated censorship of those on the Internet
00:22:41.360It also directly encourages Americans to oppose President Donald Trump.
00:22:45.940Timothy Snyder, who wrote the book after President Trump's 2016 victory,
00:22:51.400said the upcoming midterm elections represent a turning point for the Republic.
00:22:56.320Celebrities in the video read lessons such as, do not obey in advance, beware the one-party state,
00:23:02.780well, I certainly agree with that, clearly aimed at warning voters against President Trump and his supporters.
00:23:08.480This is a distorted sense of where we are today.
00:23:12.740So those who violated the Constitution and broke the law in their manic effort to destroy Donald Trump,
00:23:19.160to put him in jail, to keep him off the ballot, to bankrupt him.
00:23:23.240When any move is made by government to hold them responsible,
00:23:28.080they scream that it is revenge, that it is retaliation.
00:23:32.120Mark Ruffalo told Variety that he joined this particular left-wing project
00:23:36.400because he believes America is living through what he called a very bad and corrupt time.
00:23:41.820Ruffalo says he wants the country to move away from government.
00:23:44.980It serves the wealthy and the powerful and instead focus on young people.
00:23:48.520This is the typical drivel you'd expect to hear from out-of-touch, effete Hollywood liberal elitists.
00:23:55.760This video is just another example of why wealthy Hollywood elites who live in gated communities and travel with security guards strongly favor gun control for the rest of us,
00:24:06.840lecturing everyday Americans while pretending that they're defending democracy.
00:24:11.240The only democracy they defend is their version of it.
00:24:15.140That's one in which we are censored, we are prosecuted, we are targeted, and the criminal justice system is weaponized against us.0.96
00:24:25.000It was this sort of performative displays that annoyed the American public and caused them to rally around President Trump for cutting these losers down to size.
00:24:32.720It's why he was able to make the greatest single comeback in American political history at a time when the country should be celebrating 250 years of independence, freedom, and constitutional government.
00:24:44.400Hollywood's message is not one of you knew your gratitude,
00:24:46.840it is one of resistance, fear, and partisan politics.
00:24:51.700Meanwhile, a member of Castro's ruling family is now signaling a willingness
00:24:55.880to talk directly with President Donald Trump,
00:24:59.300a sign that the administration's pressure campaign may actually be rattling Havana's communist elite.
00:25:04.980Raul Guillermo Rodriguez Castro, the grandson of former Cuban President Raul Castro,
00:25:11.000told USA Today in an exclusive interview
00:25:13.980he's prepared to serve if the Cuban revolution needs him.
00:25:17.600Now, he holds no formal government post
00:26:10.400They lack medicine. They lack bandages.
00:26:14.560They lack all of the necessities of everyday life, because that's what socialism gets you.
00:26:20.540Cuban government data shows the island drew just 360,000 tourists in the first years of 2026.
00:26:27.160That's down 58 percent from a year earlier.
00:26:30.060The president's doctrine of strength is working against putting Cuba in a position where they must negotiate or pay the consequences.
00:26:37.400While Democrats have often favored appeasement with communist regimes,
00:26:41.160President Trump's approach is built on leverage, pressure, and American power.
00:26:45.700If Havana is now looking for a back channel to Washington, it's not because communism is succeeding.
00:26:50.120It's because the regime is running out of options and President Trump is forcing the conversation on America's terms.
00:26:57.920My wife and her family, being from Cuba, we are intensely interested in these events.
00:27:03.420I have no doubt that Secretary of State Marco Rubio, himself a Cuban-American, is acutely aware of the situation, and I expect them to continue the pressure on the regime.
00:27:18.200Meanwhile, a new House Judiciary Committee report is raising serious alarms about South Korea's left-leaning government and its treatment of American companies, especially the U.S.-owned e-commerce giant, Copang.
00:27:31.320Kupang, often called the Amazon of Korea, was recently hit with a roughly $410 million privacy fine, the largest in South Korea's history, after a data breach involving a former Chinese national employee occurred.
00:27:47.300According to the committee report, that former employee improperly accessed customer data and later hid a laptop containing stolen information in a river in China.
00:27:57.500The report says that South Korea's National Intelligence Service pressured the company, Kopang, to retrieve the device, allegedly leading to a covert recovery mission on Chinese territory.
00:28:10.540But when the company, Kopang's interim CEO, Harold Rogers, testified that Korean officials instructed the company to recover the data, South Korean officials denied it and called for perjury charges.
00:28:22.960Republican argument makers law that this is part of a broader pattern.
00:28:27.040South Korea's current left-wing government is using digital regulations and competition policy to target American businesses while drifting closer and closer to communist China.
00:28:36.320The South Korean embassy denies discrimination, saying its government provides a fair business environment and that Kupang deceived due process in this entire matter.
00:28:47.460But Hupang, the company's stock, has plunged as a result of this incredible arbitrary fine, hurting American investors, pension funds, and everyday retirement savers.
00:28:58.880A separate economic model warrants hostile Korean regulators that could cost U.S. states hundreds of billions of dollars over the next decade.0.59
00:29:07.880Allies must treat American companies fairly, and Washington should not ignore the economic attacks wrapped in foreign policy.0.53
00:29:15.120When it comes to the race for global hegemony, there can only be one dominant power.
00:29:20.460You're either with the United States or you are against us, as South Korea is apparently about to learn.
00:29:26.860I suspect they will pay a high penalty for this in terms of high tariffs and sanctions until they get their act together.
00:29:33.980Meanwhile, the Trump Justice Department is drawing a firm line in defense against American sovereignty,
00:29:39.320formally warning the International Criminal Court that it has no authority over U.S. citizens.
00:29:47.040In a June 29th letter to the International Criminal Court President, Judge Tomoko Arcane,
00:29:54.640Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche declared that the United States will not cooperate
00:29:59.220with the International Criminal Court investigation, proceedings, summons, or arrest warrants involving Americans.
00:30:07.320Blanche made it clear that because the United States never ratified the Rome Statute,
00:30:11.700the treaty that treated the ICC, the court in The Hague,
00:30:17.360has no jurisdiction over U.S. persons anywhere in the world.
00:30:21.380Acting Attorney General Blanche accused the Hague-based court of acting
00:30:24.640in an increasingly lawless and illegitimate manner,
00:30:28.160citing selective enforcement and concerns about the court's credibility,
00:30:34.980The warning comes amid rising tensions over the international criminal court's actions involving Israel and other nations that have not consented to the court's authority.
00:30:46.160The Justice Department also pointed to the American Service Members Protection Act of 2002, which rejects the international criminal court jurisdiction over American troops, officials, and civilians.
00:31:00.200That law bars U.S. cooperation with the court and authorizes the President of the United States to use all necessary means to secure the release of any American detained under an international criminal court warrant.
00:31:15.560Blanche also citing President Trump's 2025 executive order sanctioning the ICC's chief prosecutor after actions against Israeli officials.
00:31:24.700This is what they mean when they talk about the New World Order, some international court that has jurisdiction over American citizens, clearly rejected by the Trump administration.
00:31:36.480To me, this seems like a long overdue message.
00:31:39.300American citizens are not accountable to some foreign tribunal in The Hague.
00:31:44.220Organizations like the International Criminal Court have tipped away at American sovereignty for far too long.
00:31:49.720And thank God the Trump administration is putting them in their place.
00:31:54.700A new working paper from the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas is putting hard numbers behind the Biden era border crisis helped to drive housing costs up even today.
00:32:06.400The study examined the unprecedented wave of illegal immigration between 2021 and 2024, using immigration court records and government data to measure its effect on local labor and housing markets.
00:32:22.180Researchers found that illegal immigration increased employment, taking jobs away from native-born workers in doing so, while also sharply increasing the demand for housing in markets that were already strained.
00:32:34.940According to this new paper, a 1% increase in unauthorized workers relative to a local labor force was associated with about a 2.2% increase in home prices and a 1.4% increase in rents.
00:32:49.940rents. Researchers found little evidence that new home construction expanded enough to absorb this
00:32:56.680additional demand, but of course that new construction would create concerns related
00:33:01.100to infrastructure and crowded communities as well as overdevelopment, straining the very fabric of
00:33:06.520our country. The economists estimate that the unauthorized immigrant worker flows accounted
00:33:11.900for roughly 30 percent of employment growth, 30 percent of home price growth, and 20 percent of
00:33:19.660rent growth in the average metro area started between March 2021 and March 2024. They burdened
00:33:28.640schools, hospital, public services, and now, according to this research, housing affordability.
00:33:34.580But with the number of those illegally crossing our southern border dropping to virtually zero,
00:33:39.740These statistics are in the rearview mirror as Donald Trump has closed our border, making us safer and moving towards greater affordability.
00:33:50.000Americans struggling to buy a home or pay rent deserve leaders who put America's citizens first, secure the border, restore order after years of reckless immigration policy that has harmed our country in multiple, countless ways.
00:35:45.800California Democrat Congressman Ro Khanna is openly backing what he calls a billionaire's wealth tax.
00:35:52.220But the fine print tells a very different story.
00:35:55.160In a new Substack essay entitled, Why I Support a Billionaire's Wealth Tax, the far-left lawmaker quickly makes it clear that his proposal would not really stop billionaires.
00:36:04.760He, for example, supports Elizabeth Warren's ultramillionary tax act, which would impose a yearly 2% federal tax on wealth above $50 million.
00:36:15.140Speaking of that, how is it that Elizabeth Warren, on a Senate salary of $174,000, is now worth $12 million?
00:36:23.080bucks. Could it be insider trading? Hmm, I wonder. This is not simply a tax on billionaires as put0.99
00:36:29.880forward by the California congressman. This is a permanent federal claim on private wealth,
00:36:35.500including assets that may not produce cash income. Once Washington normalizes taxing wealth itself,
00:36:41.360the threshold will eventually move lower over time, especially as inflation rises, paper value
00:36:47.220for homes, farms, businesses, and retirement assets will all be taxed. The California
00:36:52.720Congressman Rojana wants the tax to reach irrevocable trusts, with the bill going to
00:36:57.480the original grantor. The proposal would dramatically expand the IRS power, including
00:37:02.500annual audits for at least 30% of those subject to this tax and federal valuation of private
00:37:08.240businesses, land, art, and other two-price assets. I wonder how they would evaluate my
00:37:14.640Nixon-Button collection. It also includes a 40% exit tax on wealth above $50 million for those
00:37:20.840who elect to leave, a so-called expatriation tax. This is exactly the danger of class warfare
00:37:27.860politics. Democrats sell these schemes as taxes on the ultra-rich, but the real principle is your
00:37:34.100property ultimately belongs to the government. That's the underlying philosophy, whether it's
00:37:38.380cash income or whether it's something of value. Today it's a $50 million, but tomorrow it could
00:37:43.860be your small business, your farm, your store, or your 401k. They want to get their hands on all of
00:37:50.300it because ultimately, you see, they want the government, not private business or individuals,
00:37:54.080to have all the power. This is anathema to the founding of our country and our ancestors who
00:37:59.500wrote the Second Amendment of the U.S. Constitution to prevent this type of situation from coming to
00:38:04.900fruition. As often is written, the Second Amendment was written to protect the first, perhaps also
00:38:10.900the fourth. In the meantime, socialism continues to take a stronger hold in the Democrat Party,
00:38:17.840according to a new economist, YouGov poll, shows the far left Democrat Party has really taken
00:38:23.200control. The poll asked Americans whether they would ever vote for a socialist candidate
00:38:27.340who identified as a socialist. And among Democrats, 45, among all voters, 45 said yes,
00:38:33.64029% said no, 26% said they were unsure.
00:38:38.640But it is among Democrats that we see the shocking numbers.
00:38:42.24062% said they would vote for a socialist, while only 11% said they would not.
00:38:48.040Among self-described liberals, support actually climbed to 73%.
00:38:53.220Even 64% of 2024 Kamala Harris voters said they would back a socialist candidate.
00:38:59.280By contrast, 85% of Republicans and 95% of Trump voters rejected the idea of voting for a socialist.
00:39:07.340The survey also found Democrats, this is shocking, more likely to choose socialism over capitalism,
00:39:14.040saying 34% claiming socialism as a superior and fairer system, with only 22% choosing capitalism.
00:39:23.280Proves what I've said many times here in the Stowe Zone.
00:39:25.600The old Democratic Party of John F. Kennedy, Robert F. Kennedy, President Harry Truman, a party that believed in God, capitalism, free enterprise, a strong national defense, and was stoutly anti-communist.
00:39:43.460Today they are the party of AOC, Rashida Tlaib, Bernie Sanders, that pompous old windbag, and Zoran Mamdami.0.61
00:39:53.500This stage sets the stage for a classic confrontation this November between Donald Trump's vision for America and what the Democratic Party offers us, which is socialism-ni-Marxism.
