J.D. Vance accuses Tim Walz of lying about his service in Iraq and Afghanistan, but is there any truth behind it? Plus, the latest on the latest in the Kamala Harris vs. Joe Biden and Jill Biden vs. Tulsi Gabbard race.
00:00:00.000Tim Walz is now being accused of stolen valor because on numerous occasions he either tries
00:00:21.000to make it seem like he served in Afghanistan or Iraq or he outright says he was in war.
00:00:28.000Even CNN is calling him out, the dude served in Italy.
00:00:32.000And I can certainly respect 24 years of military service, but you can't go around saying that you were in war carrying weapons, or that, you know, using language trying to make it seem like you were actually in the Middle East when you were not.
00:00:43.000Now I love this because CNN is saying that J.D.
00:00:45.000Vance is attacking him without evidence!
00:00:48.000Yo, we got so much evidence to lay down for you.
00:00:51.000The only explanation is that the people at CNN are intentionally lying to you.
00:00:56.000Unless, of course, they're just really dumb people.
00:01:52.000You know, the other day, YouTube was heavily censoring us.
00:01:57.000People were not getting the video display in their feeds, and while many are now saying that it seems to be better, in fact, it is not.
00:02:04.000Once again, I checked my homepage, and I, with, like, who run the account, I run the account normally, IRL is always the first video, right when I open the app, not today, not yesterday, and this is election season, so if you want to support us to make sure we can't be held back by manipulation, shadowbanning, and censorship, go to TimCast.com, click join us, become a member, support the show.

00:03:29.000Kamala Harris speaks at rally in Michigan.
00:03:31.000Let me just X that out because we don't care.
00:03:33.000They say Donald Trump's running mate, Ohio Senator J.D.
00:03:36.000Vance, stepped up his attacks on Minnesota Governor Tim Waltz's portrayal of his military career, accusing him without evidence of ducking service in Iraq.
00:03:44.000When he left the Army National Guard and ran for Congress in 2005.
00:03:48.000Vance also accused Waltz of falsely claiming he had served in a combat zone while the Democratic vice presidential nominee was in the Army National Guard.
00:03:57.000While Waltz retired two months before his unit received alert orders to deploy to Iraq, the attacks on Waltz's military record are part of the race from both parties to define the relatively unknown governor.
00:04:08.000If you get your news from CNN, I feel sorry for you.
00:04:11.000And that's why we highlight this first.
00:04:13.000I have got so much evidence it is going to make your head spin.
00:04:16.000How about this first one from Jack Posobiec?
00:04:18.000This is an article from 2005, a press release, Walt's still planning to run for Congress despite possible
00:04:24.000call to duty in Iraq for immediate release March 20, 2005. They knew in advance.
00:04:29.000They say on Thursday, March 17th, the National Guard Public Affairs Office announced a possible partial mobilization of roughly 2,000 troops in the Minnesota National Guard.
00:04:36.000First District Congressional Candidate Tim Waltz currently holds the rank of Command Sergeant Major in the 1-125th Battalion.
00:04:43.000Which is based in New Ulm and largely composed of men and women from southern Minnesota.
00:04:47.000When asked about his possible deployment to Iraq, Walt said, I do not yet know if my artillery unit will be part of this mobilization and I am unable to comment further on specifics of the deployment.
00:04:58.000Others have come out calling him a traitor who abandoned his men, bypassing the chain of command so that he can get relieved and then go run for office.
00:05:09.000I don't know if that's true, but I can tell you, evidence certainly suggests he did know he would be deploying and decided he would leave instead.
00:05:18.000Now, a lot of people have come out and said, no, no, he was planning his retirement months in advance.
00:05:22.000However, many commenters and many other veterans have stated that when deployment orders were in the pipelines, many of them stalled their plans to intentionally serve their country, knowing they would need to be deployed.
00:05:33.000Tim Walz is being criticized for not doing that, for deciding to leave.
00:05:38.000And there's, look, even if someone else came in, I don't think it's fair to call him a traitor because he didn't want to deploy.
00:05:44.000I think it's more just like, I don't know, to do something like this, and then later, from the Washington Free Beacon, Tim Walz falsely claimed he served in Afghanistan when a local vet called him out.
00:06:28.000We can make sure we don't have reciprocal carry among states, and we can make sure that those weapons of war that I carried in war is the only place where those weapons are at.
00:06:40.000He said he carried weapons of war in war.
00:06:43.000Homie, according to Wikipedia, because the source is actually task and purpose, they say he deployed to Italy in support of Operation Enduring Freedom.
00:06:55.000He did not deploy to Iraq, Afghanistan, or a combat zone during his service.
00:07:39.000They'll hear, oh, he was in the National Guard, he was in the Army.
00:07:41.000If the media lets them hear the facts, CNN without evidence, there's all the evidence, Tim just read the evidence, let them hear two minutes of that.
00:07:48.000People are just going to understand this very quick.
00:08:03.000Waltz did make a comment speaking to a group, he's done it a couple of times, where he has used language that has suggested that he carried weapons in a fighting situation.
00:08:14.000As you know, with your contact with the military, I know from coming from a military family, there is a difference between being in a combat area being involved at a time of war and actually being in a position where people are shooting at you there is no evidence that in time governor waltz was in a position of being shot at and some of his language could easily be seen to suggest that he was so that is absolutely false when he said that about about uh... gun rights out there well this is uh... we refer to this as assumptive language and i'll give you a simple act uh...
00:08:48.000Well, you can look at what he says and understand the basics of it.
00:08:51.000I served in Operation Enduring Freedom.
00:08:54.000And the assumption people then make from that is that you're in the Middle East.
00:08:58.000So if I said something like, guys, for dinner, I really want to get these amazing steaks, these beautiful thousand-dollar steaks for each and every one of us.
00:09:07.000And if you show up to work early tomorrow, I'm going to do everything I can to get you these thousand-dollar steaks.
00:09:16.000And then when everyone shows up, I go, Everybody?
00:10:04.000What I found really fascinating about Walt's story is that when he ran for Congress, he was in a more conservative area, and he basically postured like a moderate Democrat, right?
00:10:12.000I hear sometimes right now, oh, he's the populist progressive that Kamala has added to the ticket.
00:10:18.000Because as governor, especially when the state became completely Democrat controlled, every branch of government was led by Democrats, he was like, great, I'm totally here for any progressive thing you guys want to get behind.
00:10:30.000And I think that's what is the problem.
00:10:33.000Or was he always a progressive hiding in plain sight, faking it to moderates?
00:10:38.000Or is he just going to do whatever his party around him tells him to do?
00:10:42.000I mean, it's not a good position for us to have.
00:10:43.000As you go up the political chain, you come under more scrutiny from the media and others, as you should, and it seemed like he got caught with his hand in the cookie jar here, clearly embellishing a little bit.
00:10:53.000Not the craziest embellishment, but obviously trying to make him seem like he has more credibility with vets and stuff like that.
00:10:59.000I'm surprised the Kamala Harris campaign didn't catch it sooner, because I'm sure they vetted him very thoroughly, and this was probably one of the focuses of the Kamala Harris campaign, too.
00:11:08.000Like, how can I reach out to, like, the suburban, white, veteran-type voter And it's, oh, look at this jolly old former football coach, and he was a veteran, and that plays well to help rough out the edges of Kamala Harris, so to speak, and now it's kind of backfiring in their face under more scrutiny.
00:12:47.000When the dude says, I was in the army and I served in Operation Enduring Freedom, and then he puts on a green beret cap, Yo, come on, you know what he's trying to trick people into thinking, that he's special forces, who actually was in combat, and then he lies and says I carried weapons of war in war.
00:13:10.000Yeah, it cancels out what he did in the military, if you ask me.
00:13:14.000It really cancels most of what he did out because it's disgusting to try to falsify everything to get people who want to vote for you because of your service to vote for you under something you never did.
00:14:18.000Because I think that Democrats have been calling that a Republican line of attack.
00:14:23.000I actually caught up with Senator John Fetterman at the Philadelphia rally yesterday and asked him this question about him being, do you think if his pro-Israel bona fides is what helped drag him away from that?
00:15:05.000This has been widely, look, let me put it this way.
00:15:10.000If what they're claiming about Shapiro was true, that no, no, nothing to do with that, Cori Bush and Jamaal Bowman would still be in office.
00:15:18.000Or they would have won their primaries.
00:15:32.000And I know the Republicans are eyeing Pennsylvania very aggressively, but I'm trying to think of the past few elections when Mastriano lost to Fetterman and Bob Casey was there as their senior senator there.
00:17:41.000The anti-Israel people were very mad at Shapiro because he said he didn't believe in a two-state solution, or it wasn't ready, or the Palestinians are too violent for a two-state solution.
00:17:52.000He's not wrong on that, I don't think.
00:17:55.000I also think there's an important distinction we need to make between the anti-Israel sentiment that we are seeing within the Democrat Party.
00:18:02.000I think there is a way to criticize Israel without being anti-Semitic.
00:18:07.000The question is, how many of the people who are criticizing Israel and are anti-Shapiro are doing that out of their bigotry?
00:18:15.000Let's actually, let's pull this story up.
00:18:18.000CNN panel explodes as ex-Bush advisor claims Kamala Harris couldn't pick Josh Shapiro due to rampant anti-Semitism in the Democratic Party.
00:18:26.000I don't think it's fair to say the panel exploded.
00:18:28.000This is Scott Jennings, a former special assistant to President George W. Bush.
00:18:32.000He made his point and no one got bent out of shape over it.
00:19:05.000Everybody can see why he was the best choice, but she couldn't do it because the party is somewhat awash in anti-Semitism.
00:19:12.000And for Walls, when he did what he did during the riots, To me, it was him saying, I don't have the strength or the character to stand up to this anarchy.
00:19:24.000So in two big decision points for this ticket, they've showed us they will always bow down to the radical left.
00:19:31.000So I think if you want to talk about normal to the normal people in this country, bowing down to the radical left is not normal.
00:19:40.000And it should be a flashing red light.
00:19:42.000But this is the reality, and I think he's right.
00:19:45.000I think the reality is, when you look at Cori Bush, they had to dump so much money to compete against her.
00:19:51.000Now, the reality is people in her district don't like her.
00:19:52.000The people in Ilhan Omar's district don't like her.
00:19:54.000The Somali Muslims don't like Ilhan Omar.
00:19:57.000And this is an important point, because a lot of conservatives think that she gets massive support from the Somali community.
00:20:02.000They roast her all the time because she's a leftist, she's woke, and she's pro-LGBTQ.
00:20:07.000You can still see, with AOC and the Squad, a large DSA, leftist, anti-Israel, pro-Palestine contingent.
00:20:15.000And the question then becomes, outside of the woke, you do have Dearborn, you do have the Somali migrants in Minnesota.
00:20:22.000Were they to have picked Shapiro, maybe they could have won in Pennsylvania.
00:20:27.000Maybe they could have won back some of these more moderate Jewish voters in the United States who are concerned and probably going to be voting for Trump.
00:20:34.000But they probably would have lost a lot in Michigan and Minnesota, which I believe it was Michigan where they had that campaign to not vote for, was it not to vote for Joe Biden?
00:20:45.000Well, remember Kamala wasn't running during the primary, she was still the VP.
00:20:49.000And I think it's fair to say that there's a difference between criticism of Israel and claiming that they wouldn't vote for a Jewish guy, but I gotta stress this, because we had Taylor Hanson on the Culture War podcast, Tenet Media, Friday at 10 a.m.
00:21:02.000I have been on the ground, and you have too, Elad, so I want to hear your experiences, but I will tell you mine.
00:21:08.000I have met many people in the ten years that I was on the ground who are holding up signs publicly saying, we have no problem with Jewish people, it's just Israel.
00:21:17.000When the cameras turn off, they're like, no, it's Jews.
00:21:22.000So there's so many different groups and types of people, different types of people that you'll see at protests.
00:21:27.000And some of them are on the same page and some aren't.
00:21:38.000So you'll go to these events and they'll be like young white liberals, the people from the young crowd, like a young black person, a young Spanish person.
00:21:47.000And I find like some of those people actually tend to be not pro-Hamas.
00:21:52.000But I'll find them next to more extreme protesters who wrap the keffiyeh around their head, who are usually Arab, who are more likely to yell al-Akbar.
00:22:01.000For example, a couple of weeks ago when Bibi Netanyahu came and visited and gave a speech at Congress, what were the chants that we were seeing when they took the flag down and started burning it?
00:22:11.000Some of the people dispersed at that point.
00:22:13.000There are only a few flags that have Hezbollah's logo on it.
00:22:18.000But then again, it's considering like, you know, I remember back in the day when at a Trump rally, if they saw one person with a swastika somewhere outside, they'd say, oh, everybody at the rally is a Nazi.
00:22:27.000But nobody seems to condemn this stuff actively while they're there.
00:22:30.000So I'm just trying to have some nuance.
00:22:35.000You go to these rallies, you go to these protests, and you'll find people who are like, no, no, no, I don't want any hatred towards Jewish people, my friends are Jewish, I'm concerned about Israel.
00:22:45.000But a lot of, there's a lot of people who will, on camera, say it's Israel because they know what the PR looks like, and then once the camera's off, they'll start talking about Jews starting the slave trade and using banks to control the world and start world wars.
00:23:01.000There was a woman who was one of the top organizers, said that the other members of the Women's March sat her down to explain to her how the Jews started the slave trade and started all the world wars and all of these things.
00:23:14.000You'll find those people, you'll find a small group of those people at all anti-Israel protests, but I don't want to try to tar all of those people as those groups, because if you hate Jews, then you want to show up to the anti-Israel events.
00:24:57.000This is just one of the stories where it's like, yeah... So I'm just saying this, I'm just saying this.
00:25:03.000The idea that Democrats are claiming... So, because you mentioned earlier, it was Fetterman who said it, right?
00:25:09.000Fetterman said that, no, no, the reason we... Everyone's... You know, it's a Republican talking point that Shapiro wasn't chosen because he's Jewish.
00:25:36.000We don't need to focus on this too much, but my last tidbit on this is there are many different strains of anti-Semitism, and I think it's important to analyze them and take them for what they are separately.
00:25:45.000This Louis Farrakhan and Tamika Mallory and Linda Sarsour adjacent anti-Semitism is from a place of viewing Jews as rich, privileged white landlords.
00:25:56.000So I just wanted to kind of flesh that out.
00:25:58.000Have you seen the memes posted by people of this repute?
00:26:03.000They show the privileged pyramid with white people on top, and then above it is a free-floating Jewish group.
00:26:10.000These are the memes that these people were posting in 2018.
00:26:13.000They were saying things like, you're not ready for the truth.
00:26:16.000And it was the white privilege pyramid meme with Jews above it.
00:26:20.000And then you've got people like this, because I don't know what they posted.
00:26:24.000I know that people who are following them had been posting things.
00:26:27.000I know that there had been a lot of instances where some members of Congress had images from groups they were following were posting things like this and being a screenshot.
00:27:46.000I think part of this is that we The Democrats have painted it that, you know, they're the open-minded party and they love everybody and they, you know, it's just occasionally they have to take down white people who have had too much power for too long and Republicans are the racist ones.
00:28:02.000Like, fundamentally, a lot of racial, religious, ethnic groups in America have tensions with other People of different backgrounds or different, you know, persuasions, let's say.
00:28:13.000And they have just marketed to convince themselves that they don't.
00:28:16.000And I think that's why the conflict between Israel and Palestine really shocked a lot of older Democrats, because they thought, oh, no, no, we're the good guys, and we're always on the same side.
00:28:25.000And the reality is that there are tons of people who have bias against different racial groups in the Democratic Party, just like it's everywhere else in the world.
00:29:46.000The Democrat was announced as the VP, we know.
00:29:49.000being a white military veteran from the Midwest broadens Harris' appeal.
00:29:52.000I've heard people calling him Tampon Tim because why use a progressive individual that wanted to put tampons in boys' locker rooms in the school as governor?
00:30:02.000Brian Mass said of Harris' VP pick, uh, picks gender policies.
00:30:06.000The name Tampon Tim has since been used throughout conservative circles to describe the governor, uh, governor picked to pad Harris' presidential prospects.
00:30:13.000While, uh, I do think it's absolutely hilarious to call the man this, I think it is horrifyingly ineffective.
00:30:19.000Someone else made the point, I can't remember who, it was on Twitter.
00:30:22.000They said, all this will do is when a Normie asks a Democrat, why are they calling him Tampon Tim, the Democrat's going to say, because he wanted to fund feminine hygiene products in schools.
00:31:11.000Why is it that we have shown these books time and time again where they claim it's sex ed for kids and it's just normal stuff and it's graphic porn and weird degenerate stuff and still, to this day, the Democrat lie persists.
00:31:26.000Because it's been effective for them and we haven't cut through the mold enough.
00:31:30.000Now certainly a lot of people have been informed of the books in these schools and they say you're trying to ban books.
00:32:43.000No, it's not really a, it's kind of a nickname, but like, someone's name is Richard, you call him Rick, but there's a, you can call anybody Rick, but you don't call him Ricky.
00:32:52.000Some people, some people can keep it up, a Ricky.
00:32:55.000There are just certain like versions of these names that I think of as being for like children versus like, like your family might've called you Timmy when you were like four, but at a certain point.
00:33:37.000One of the benefits to choosing Kamala Harris as a VP candidate, and one of the risks, is that she has no SEO.
00:33:46.000When you're crafting YouTube videos or tweets or Facebook posts, you need to consider, if you're doing any kind of social media marketing, the volume attached to someone's name.
00:33:59.000There are a lot of obsessed people on the left who make videos about me all day, every day.
00:34:03.000It's because Tim Pool and Timcast have massive search volume.
00:34:08.000So if you go on YouTube and you're like, I want to get 100,000 views, make a video about Tim Pool and people are going to watch it because they love to talk about me.
00:34:39.000Kamala Harris has been in the news quite a bit, but she's never been the centerpiece.
00:34:44.000So while there's a lot of articles and a lot of social media posts about her, social media comments here was almost always about Joe Biden, and she was an afterthought.
00:34:50.000They'd mock her, but they'd never use her in the titles, in the descriptions, because her name never had strong pull.
00:34:56.000I do think it's fair to say that only because I've been doing a show for a decade that there's going to be more instances of my name on social media, specifically where people are insulting, attacking me, creating a lot of drama and arguments, and Kamala was more in the corporate press.
00:35:19.000I think the strategy there is, make it very difficult for anyone to generate any kind of, like, I gotta tell you, You try to make a video and you're like, Kamala Harris is the VP, and like, YouTube will not recommend it, it will not get easily found in search, because the way the algorithms work is, if someone searches for a name, and the percentage by which people click on it is high, then YouTube or Google or whatever is going to keep recommending that higher and higher and higher.
00:35:49.000Now, I wonder, because we've got another story we'll pull up in a little bit about how they're trying to hire people like Kysonet and FaZe, I think his name is, to do these streams with Kamala because of the Aiden Ross thing.
00:36:20.000And so it's hard to actually go after her.
00:36:25.000Social media personalities, I guarantee, especially on the left, are going to be saying to themselves, if I make a video about her, no one's going to want to click on it.
00:36:47.000They're praising Walton and Harris for the rally, but then they're like, well, she's really only answered one press question since her campaign began.
00:36:54.000And I think that, you know, the lack of personality and just delving into sort of identity attacks on Trump and Vance is starting to sort of peter out.
00:37:03.000I mean, if you looked at Vance just showing up at her airplane today, it was so funny.
00:37:08.000She could never pull off that kind of organic online engagement where you get this funny photo of him, like, you know, walking out. It's not the same. She's a robotic
00:37:16.000person. She has no personality. She's extremely bland. She's brain, she's brain dead, but she's
00:37:21.000stupid enough to know that she's stupid because she will not go talk to the press because she'll
00:37:26.000get obliterated. She can't answer a question. She couldn't even sit in this room and have a
00:37:30.000conversation with people. She is just dumb, but not dumb enough to not realize she's dumb. There's two
00:37:35.000different. What if she's like insanely smart? I think it's a great campaign.
00:38:43.000It's kind of wild that like the Democratic Party has this large contingent of women terrified to have babies and men who just want to bang around and not be dads.
00:42:18.000You know, we're in a wooded suburban area.
00:42:20.000Ain't nothing's going to happen over here.
00:42:22.000And then one day I was on my deck and I heard sirens.
00:42:25.000And I saw helicopters, and I was like, oh, what?
00:42:28.000And then I checked the news, and the riders crossed the bridge, and they were only a few miles away, and I was like, I don't think we should be anywhere near this place.
00:42:36.000And so, I did not just open my windows and take it all in.
00:42:40.000I said, we should move, and we should move as quickly as we can, and that's when we went to what we refer to as the castle, which was in Western Maryland.
00:42:47.000And had I known then what I know now, I would have chosen West Virginia immediately, But I thought the area was probably, you know, similar enough, but we decided to leave because of it, because the riders from Philly, the crime, it was getting so bad, they were crossing the bridge.
00:43:36.000I mean, if DEI actually did help white people get hired in jobs, like Black Panther the movie had a bunch of white people in it because they were concerned about being, you know, too many black actors, I would respect that as a DEI hire.
00:44:16.000I think it's a diversity hire because it wasn't about anything but what his identity, like what he physically looked like to the voters, right?
00:44:24.000He's an older white male and then you can factor in the other identity things.
00:44:28.000He's from, you know, this more rural state and so they think, oh, well he's white and so white farmers, they're gonna love this guy.
00:44:35.000Never mind the fact that he became Intensely progressive in office, never mind the fact that he, you know, was not supportive of law enforcement in the fallout of all of the rioting in his city.
00:46:05.000I think the main attack on him really has to get to that bill he signed with the transgender stuff, with the protecting pedophile.
00:46:12.000It wasn't that it was overtly... We gotta be clear on this, okay?
00:46:18.000It removed a provision from law that excluded child predation as a sexual orientation.
00:46:25.000So there was a law that said sexual orientation is defined as such, and then it added, adults being attracted to children is not covered or protected, blah blah blah, and the Minnesota State Legislature and the governor signed this.
00:46:57.000And I think one of our biggest challenges is that as a nation, we don't have a shared
00:47:02.000culture and therefore we don't have shared values, but I'm pretty sure everyone, I know
00:47:05.000not every, I can't say everyone, I think generally everyone's anti-pedophile.
00:47:10.000There are small movements on progressive political fronts that are trying to make it more normal, but generally every parent in America, I'm sure, is like, no, that's not okay.
00:48:01.000They let one of their biggest cities burn, the riots persist, this is the governor, and the wife was like, mmm, I smell of burning tires, I wanted to keep the windows open.
00:48:11.000As if the destruction of businesses and people's lives was something to behold to celebrate.
00:48:17.000This would be such a great line of attack, but it's unfortunate that Trump called Waltz, I think, during the riots and was telling him that he did a good job.
00:48:27.000And this is a phone call that Waltz recorded with Donald Trump in 2020 and decided to release it now.
00:49:52.000If now, four years later, Trump's like, well, yeah, in the years following, the more information we gathered from it, the more camera angles, the more videos we saw, the more reports we got, I began to realize he actually didn't do that good of a job.
00:50:04.000That being said, even if Trump praised Waltz's handling of the George Floyd riots, that doesn't change the fact that his wife Maybe it's because of a lot of my first-hand experience at different riots, but when I was covering the George Floyd riots in New York City in 2020, I don't think Trump did a good job of handling it, let alone this governor.
00:50:29.000Trump did a miserable job of handling all of these riots.
00:50:35.000He should have sent the National Guard a whole lot earlier throughout the country.
00:51:08.000And I also think you have to, like, work with the governors, right?
00:51:11.000Like, maybe Tim Walz didn't do that good of a job, but ultimately there was a lot of chaos going on, and if you're the commander-in-chief of the country, like, you have to decide what battles in those moments are worth fighting.
00:51:24.000You know, I've talked to a lot of people in politics for a very, very long time, and I'll get people to say something like, you know, I want to build a social media profile, like, how do I make an account?
00:51:33.000And then I always say, how evil do you want to be?
00:51:36.000And they always go, I don't want to be evil.
00:51:37.000I'm like, okay, well, there's your problem, because...
00:51:40.000So many of these big YouTube channels, these political accounts, they choose the easy route.
00:52:28.000The reason I bring this up If, during the Summer of Love riots, Donald Trump thought like a Democrat, you know what he would have done?
00:52:36.000If Donald Trump wanted to play this game the way the Democrats play it, he would have ordered law enforcement in front of the White House to stand down.
00:52:44.000When the rioters tore down the barricades, firebombed the White House grounds, and firebombed St.
00:52:48.000John's Church, he would have immediately said, Stand.
00:52:56.000He could have said in a statement, the risk to those that are peaceful is too great as the conflict escalates, and we're hoping that by removing police, tensions may deescalate.
00:54:15.000I get what you're saying, but I would probably describe it as Democrats use subterfuge and manipulation, and Republicans are... I'll put it this way, and this could offend a lot of Republicans, but Democrats are ninjas and Republicans are samurai.
00:54:39.000So, there's a really great video, you can watch this, maybe it's a bit esoteric to have brought up that analogy.
00:54:43.000There's a really cool video, martial arts training, and it shows, like, samurai had, like, they have rules, whatever it was called, I don't know if Bushido was real or whatever, but it was basically like you fought with honor, and with purpose, and the ninjas were just...
00:55:12.000So there's like mock, you can watch martial arts training where the samurai will fight with a katana and a ninja will, and the ninja will throw soot in his face instantly.
00:55:21.000Just don't care, whatever's dirty enough to win, we'll do it.
00:55:24.000Republicans are approaching elections like this.
00:55:26.000They're saying, we have the argument on our side, and when everyone comes out and votes, we will win because justice and honor.
00:55:33.000And the Democrats are like, sneak in the back and bring the box.
00:55:36.000I'm saddened by how extremely spot on you were with talking about how to get ahead in the political or media space about being evil.
00:55:44.000I would call it more like cynical, as cynical as you could possibly be, and as openly partisan as you could possibly be, because if you care about politics, then you are a partisan.
00:57:00.000They should not do this because I've already criticized some conservatives over this.
00:57:02.000They say in his first interview since ending his reelection bid, President Biden expressed doubt Wednesday that there would be a peaceful transfer of power if former President Donald Trump loses the 2024 election.
00:57:14.000Quote, if Trump wins, no, I'm not confident at all.
00:57:16.000What happened when he said that, because Biden's brain is fried, he said, if Trump wins, I am not confident there will be a peaceful transfer of power, implying he and other Democrats would stop Trump from winning.
00:57:29.000He then immediately said, I mean, if Trump loses, I'm not confident at all.
00:57:48.000But for Joe Biden, what he was actually saying is that if Trump loses, Trump supporters will not accept this and there will not be a peaceful transfer of power.
00:57:56.000However, my question then becomes, what does that imply?
00:59:27.000It's always to make Trump and Trump supporters look like they are on the edge of political violence when that has proven, let's look at January 13th, to not be the case.
01:00:06.000This is a guy who has just survived an assassination attempt.
01:00:09.000She's immediately back to being aggressive.
01:00:12.000And now that they're starting to bring Joe Biden back out, he is supposed to be this, like, older, you know, seasoned statesman who's kind of predicting the future.
01:00:21.000We know Joe Biden is completely biased in his thoughts.
01:00:24.000We know that he has skin in the game for if Kamala wins and, you know, what his legacy will end up looking like.
01:00:29.000So it only behooves him to say, well, you really, you know, it's not just about democracy.
01:00:34.000It's like, do you want any safety in this country?
01:00:39.000And then he whispers and stops talking.
01:00:41.000What if, you know, one day you were, you know, like, Elad, you're out in D.C.
01:00:45.000and, you know, you're in the Capitol building interviewing people, when you stumble across a room and there inside is Kamala Harris, Tim Walz, Donald Trump, and J.D.
01:00:54.000Vance, and Kamala starts talking about how we need to build a border wall, she's super based, and then Trump says it's very honorable for you to play the bad guy, to pretend to be the villain so that we can win and make this country great.
01:01:06.000How would you feel if, like, it turned out they were intentionally sabotaging I'm half kidding about the first part.
01:01:11.000It's all just a scam and they don't really care to address the issues they talk about so they could run on them again?
01:01:17.000Well, no, I mean, like, Tim Walz seems like a losing choice.
01:02:38.000I think the Democrats are in a weird position where they expect to win the election and who they're going to put in place to do so is sort of secondary.
01:02:48.000I think that's really bad sign for the country.
01:02:59.000Let's just run Joe and deal with the if we need to replace him later.
01:03:05.000But the reality is that the Democratic Party has a lot of its own internal problems, and they couldn't have matched up a winning pair out of nowhere, especially when they already had obligations to Harris.
01:03:17.000I think it sounds like a Republican talking point, but I think it's more than that in how the Democrats used to focus so much on their idealized version of democracy and how important it was.
01:03:28.000Kamala Harris didn't win any states in the Democrat primary.
01:03:31.000Not one person voted for her because she was the VP.
01:03:34.000And I talked to a lot of different voters about this at Kamala Harris's rally, and they'd
01:03:38.000say, oh no, we did vote for her when she was the VP.
01:03:40.000But nobody, you know, what's the whole point of the primary process if just at the end
01:03:47.000of the day, the Democrats can anoint somebody new and not even have an open convention about
01:03:52.000So while the Democrats will constantly talk about democracy, or it seems they started ditching talking about it as a catchphrase, but it's like, where is the democracy here in your primary at all?
01:04:01.000Like, we went through this entire long, expensive process.
01:04:05.000To just get swapped out real quick because you're obviously going to lose, but I guess democracy stays in the dump if politics takes over.
01:04:13.000One of our super chatters is saying that, you know, we sell coffee, but we should sell TimCast tampons in light of the politics of it to merchandise.
01:04:21.000I think the audience is... Then you would be tampon Tim.
01:04:35.000You were going to say something serious, Joey.
01:04:40.000No, I don't even remember what I was talking about.
01:04:41.000We're talking about democracy and how that used to be a catchphrase of the Democrats, but primary system doesn't matter now because you could just get swapped out at the last minute.
01:04:52.000What I was also saying is they know that Kamala would not have been able to go through a two-year election season.
01:04:57.000They know Kamala Harris would have broken down.
01:05:21.000She couldn't What if the October Surprise is like a total public mental breakdown?
01:05:26.000Like she's walking to her car and people are asking her questions and then she just grabs her head and she's like, and she like drops to her knees and she just loses it.
01:05:33.000She's used to that position, but I'll stop.
01:05:36.000The second time we've made a joke about that.
01:05:39.000We did swap Biden out, but I still think we need to focus on him still being the president of the United States.
01:05:44.000And I don't understand, it sounds like a Republican talking point, but I don't understand how somebody can't be your nominee but can still be the acting president of the United States.
01:06:27.000In different countries, if a president is a lame duck, they will step down and allow their underling to finish out their term so they could campaign on that and kind of look like an incumbent.
01:06:39.000I think Joe Biden would have dropped out if he could have.
01:06:43.000There were a lot of questions about his viability as a candidate before the debate.
01:08:55.000I got to say, like, I don't think she handled that well.
01:08:59.000No, it's gonna blow back on her because you just dismissed the concerns of your pro-Gaza people and that's gonna hurt her.
01:09:08.000We need to make sure we throw that in their faces so they remember Kamala does not care about your concerns with the Israel-Gaza war.
01:09:14.000Throw that in their faces over and over.
01:09:17.000We gotta just fight with anything we got.
01:09:20.000I don't think the strategy of the right is to try and act like the left because, and I only clarify this, You certainly can't go, oh, how dare she dismiss the pro-Gaza people.
01:09:33.000No, you can't say it directly, but you just need to target it to these people.
01:10:13.000You have to be confused and go, look, man, I don't know.
01:10:16.000I'm just trying to get the cost of milk, bread, and eggs down.
01:10:19.000Vance has to respond by saying like, That doesn't bother me.
01:10:22.000What bothers me is the fact that American families can't handle their grocery bills, that they're struggling to make ends meet.
01:10:27.000You can talk all day long about what you think of me, but I'm actually here for the American people.
01:10:31.000Well, and the funny thing is they're using the weird attack, but these are people that literally have transgenders and drag queens running their whole party.
01:10:37.000But again, this is a mistake the right keeps making.
01:10:40.000That means nothing to the average person.
01:10:43.000If you go to a regular— You go to the suburbs, and you say that to them, and they're gonna go, huh?
01:10:50.000You're right, they don't pay attention.
01:10:57.000If there is a middle-aged mother and father, and they're sitting down being like, we don't know who to vote for, and then Tim Walz and the Democrats are like, well, Trump and J.D.
01:11:11.000If you then say, coming from the party of transgender blah blah blah, those two people sitting in those benches are gonna go, you know, the husband's gonna go, honey, I...
01:12:14.000So the attack there is really easy for Trump, just be like, the economy's not doing too well, I know you guys are hurting, I'm gonna enact these plans.
01:12:21.000That's the play, but I think the unfortunate thing is Democrats are really good at They're really good at getting the lowest common denominator.
01:12:31.000That's why they get Bon Iver to play the Kamala event.
01:12:34.000This is why at Occupy Wall Street they lied and claimed Radiohead was coming to play.
01:13:04.000And they're going to be like, I'll take it, because this is nuts.
01:13:06.000Yeah, it would be nice to see, you know, anytime they call JD Vance weird, if he's just like, your campaign is 18 days old and you have no platforms.
01:13:13.000Like, we are this many days out from the election and you guys have not presented a single platform.
01:13:17.000A $300 grocery bill is weird for a family of four every week.
01:13:21.000That's all they should do, is they should get the average grocery bill prices on a big board and put it right behind them anytime they do a public event and be like, Kamala's vice president.
01:13:30.000So I don't think she has any public positions, but the way Trump should be attacking him, and the media's complicit in her not having any positions because they don't question her on it, is that she's Joe Biden.
01:13:54.000Yeah, I mean, if she's not going to present her own vision for what her administration would look like, then you have to look to the records that she's put her names on, which are her time as a prosecutor, which is deeply controversial, especially among progressives, and her time as part of the Joe Biden administration, which, I mean, I just don't think Americans are particularly happy with the state of the country.
01:14:12.000I think you could go back to- I mean, this is one of the things that I thought Trump did really well during the first debate, which is just to go back to the most important issues of all time, the economy, immigration.
01:14:22.000Just saying, like, these are the things that are bothering Americans.
01:14:25.000Don't get distracted by any kind of personal, you know, weird or why are you sitting like that or whatever they're coming to come up with to distract you because they're children.
01:14:33.000They're acting like middle school mean girls.
01:14:35.000Just talk about what Americans want to hear about, which is like, The crisis that face them every day, the things that make it difficult for them to sit down at the kitchen table and plan their futures because they're burdened by so much fear about their economic future and also about the safety of their families.
01:14:51.000So there are some people in the chat saying, no, no, Tim, you got to go high road and low road.
01:14:55.000And there are others saying Tim only wants to not insult Tim Walz because it hits him too.
01:15:37.000is going to be something more the effect of a counter to the weird narrative that doesn't just say the same thing back at them.
01:15:44.000High road is when you respond with, look, call me weird, my policies to help you get through, you know, to increase your wages and get prices down will be X, Y, and Z. That's high road.
01:15:54.000Low road would be more like, you're calling me weird?
01:15:57.000You're the guy who did X, Y, and Z and did this thing and that thing and bad thing and you're the reason this guy can't pay his bills.
01:17:33.000Maybe he picked it up and implied it, but I really think that was started by some millennial girl in an office who's working on one of these campaigns.
01:17:45.000Maybe I'm wrong, and you guys should give me your perspective on this, but I think the other thing that would work, you know, When you say we should fight like them, the thing is, they already know their style of fighting, and so you can't really, you know, you're always going to be worse in interpretation of trying to do what they're doing.
01:18:01.000I actually think one of the things the Trump campaign did well was to have a very positive message, like, we are going to get back on track.
01:18:57.000That Kamala Harris right now would win.
01:18:59.000saying, make no mistake, Trump's advantage with the Republican convention after that
01:19:03.000ended is gone. It's wiped away. And if the election were held today, I actually believe
01:19:08.000that Harris would beat Trump. That's how much things have changed in the last two weeks.
01:19:12.000Harris leads Trump by half a point in the RCP polling average and several key battleground
01:19:17.000states have the two essentially tied. Luntz also pointed out with a little more than three months
01:19:21.000to go before the November 5th election, the contest is up for grabs.
01:19:25.000I would also add that the betting markets are favoring Kamala Harris and the swing states.
01:19:32.000So, guys, you better go register voters, you better do everything you have to do, otherwise...
01:19:39.000I hate to break it to you, you're gonna have a president with no campaign policies or policy positions who was installed and not a single person voted for, this would be the end of the republic.
01:19:48.000And I'm not trying to be cute, I am saying if Kamala Harris wins, it will be, I believe it will be the first anti-popular president without any mandate from the masses in any way.
01:19:59.000Because we can go back and we can look at, you know, Gerald Ford for instance, right?
01:20:04.000He became president because of, what was it?
01:20:37.000This is a guy who actually campaigned on a ticket with Nixon, they won, he gets elected, and then he fulfills his duty.
01:20:42.000If Kamala Harris gets elected president, it will be the first president who is installed by a party without a mandate from the masses and has no policies for the country.
01:20:52.000I think the Democrats were extremely shrewd how they played this past two crazy months of a news and political cycle.
01:21:00.000They did it extremely effectively and kind of stole a lot of momentum that the Republicans had going into their convention.
01:21:06.000So we had the Trump assassination attempt.
01:21:08.000That was probably the day where Trump was most popular.
01:21:11.000And the coming days after that, with all of the people coming together, this was after the Joe Biden debate where Joe Biden Trump performed extremely poorly.
01:21:19.000Trump was getting that boost from the convention.
01:21:21.000But this was all while, behind the scenes, the Democrats were replacing Joe Biden.
01:21:26.000And that was exciting and motivating so many of those Democrats.
01:21:31.000And now we're seeing that boost after Joe Biden is being replaced on the ticket by Kamala Harris.
01:21:35.000They had to wait till after the campaign, because that way Trump was locked into a VP pick.
01:21:39.000All the excitement for Trump was... I mean, the big events were over, right?
01:22:28.000Every day after the assassination of Trump, going to the RNC, that you got these stronger images of Trump.
01:22:33.000Not just the standing up on the stage and, like, putting his fist up and that, like, swell of USA chanting.
01:22:39.000Him coming to the RNC with the bandage on his ear, like, All of the things that happened there, the moments that he had with Cori Comptor's uniform jacket, like these were, I think, really big moments for the country that I think could have been points of unity.
01:22:53.000And the Democrats knew there was no way for them to message and say like, yes, we need to turn down political rhetoric or political tensions because they need that.
01:23:01.000That's the only way they can compel their voters out of Their whole thing is Trump is Hitler.
01:23:05.000It was huge momentum for the Republicans based off those three events.
01:23:09.000The debate, the assassination attempt, then the convention.
01:23:12.000And the Democrats stole all of that thunder by having the biggest news story of the past decade probably of a nominee, a presumptive nominee, being swapped out.
01:23:21.000And then the focus became Kamala Harris following that.
01:23:24.000And it's been Kamala Harris since then.
01:23:26.000So obviously the Kemp, we have more time.
01:23:29.000The only thing that they could do was get him to drop out and to put Kamala in charge to regain control of the news cycle.
01:23:35.000Otherwise, all we would have been talking about to this day, like how we haven't talked about the FBI's, you know, conversations about Thomas Crooks.
01:23:42.000We haven't talked about this in a long time because they have been able to single handedly say, we're talking about Kamala now.
01:23:47.000They set the news cycle and they do a great job of it.
01:23:51.000And now Kamala is the only topic of conversation.
01:24:34.000And you had an interesting interview because you were at the rally that I liked with, there
01:24:37.000was a guy that you spoke to and you said, he said, like, why do you support Kamala?
01:24:42.000And he was like, oh, well, I think it's really, really important that we have, you know, the first female, first black, female black president.
01:24:56.000Like, it was just, well, it's important that people feel represented.
01:25:00.000It's like, oh, if a woman becomes president, therefore, you know, we've overcome all the bigotry towards women.
01:25:06.000If a black person becomes president, you know, the country's no longer racist, which can't be true because Obama was president and Democrats still say our country's racist.
01:25:13.000So no matter what we do, we're tarnished by the poison of racism, even if, well, I guess he was only half and it wouldn't work with Kamala.
01:25:23.000She's like, no, there's nothing there.
01:25:25.000And she specifically says, so this whole thing about the first black female president, you got to ask these black voters, what has Kamala said she's going to do for the black community?
01:25:33.000She literally laughed at that question.
01:25:35.000She laughs at everything, so that's not the biggest deal.
01:25:37.000But she laughed and said, well, I'm going to just focus on things that are good for all the people, which is a right answer, right?
01:28:10.000And once we're in, we've got to use every bit of that power for these four years to hold back what they're trying to do to us.
01:28:16.000Because God knows if she gets in, she's not Joe Biden.
01:28:19.000This woman is We're going to have a competent team, and she is going to push the most radical agenda that anyone in this country can even conceive of.
01:28:28.000And if we don't push back in the four years that we may get now, we're going to have nothing by the time— Well, I mean, if an installed candidate ends up winning, it just gives Democrats what they've been hoping for for a very long time, Chinese communist-style governance.
01:28:42.000The party decides who is going to lead the country, and everyone else just falls in line or else.
01:28:46.000And did you see his little thing today, Walls?
01:28:48.000It was from the past where he says, well, you know, free speech and all, but misinformation cannot be tolerated and disinformation cannot be tolerated.
01:29:49.000I mean, Look, Kamala's got no staying power, Waltz has got no staying power, J.D.
01:29:55.000Vance has a little bit, Trump has a lot.
01:29:58.000If this election were literally the two of them, you take ten people, you put them in a room, you get Kamala and Waltz and Trump and Vance, and then you ask people to vote, they're voting for Trump and Vance, no question.
01:30:13.000This is not what the election is, okay?
01:30:15.000The election is going to be blue areas that are in cults.
01:30:18.000Red areas with a lot of voters, all the same, will just rubber stamp R, no matter who it is, and then Democrats are like, okay, so that's locked.
01:30:27.000You've got D plus 30s, R plus 30s, all we've got to do now is ballot harvest the rest.
01:30:31.000This election is going to come down to the infrastructure and mechanisms by which Republicans are prepared to win.
01:30:38.000That's why Trump lost in 2020, because Zuckerbucks and all the rest of them had a quote-unquote shadow campaign, they called it, which was the mechanism and infrastructure by which they get more numbers than the Republicans did.
01:30:49.000It's all about Pennsylvania, baby, and the Democrats didn't pick the popular governor from Pennsylvania, so I hope that'll be their fatal flaw in all this.
01:30:56.000It would be funny if it was that they just couldn't put a Jew on the ticket that brought them down in the end.
01:31:34.000But, you know, it's hard because you've got Philadelphia, and Philadelphia is just so rife with bad election policies and bad drop boxes and all the...
01:31:44.000It's just hard to win when you have Philadelphia in the mix.
01:31:47.000I think it can be done, but it's going to be tough.
01:31:50.000Scott Pressler's doing a great job of it.
01:32:07.000I mean, it would be very hard to not with me as a son, but it's just a lot of these women in that area, they're like, oh, well, you know, he says weird things and Kamala is so different.
01:33:37.000These are the cradles of civilization, where we're supposed to be able to show the greatest things that we've done, and you have these disgusting third-world creatures running around, ruining it, ripping things apart, burning things down, graffiti on everything.
01:34:02.000Real quick, one last point on your mother, or was it your grandmother?
01:34:07.000I think we're, I know we're continuing to be polarized along gender lines, and as much as we like to pretend that representation doesn't matter to people, that is, seeing somebody in office in a position of a person who so-called looks like them is important to people.
01:34:23.000Women do want to see, and it is important for many women to see a female in that role, and we'll vote for them because of that.
01:34:30.000So we can pretend representation isn't a big issue for most people, but it's very important to people consciously and subconsciously, so it makes sense.

01:35:49.000Because you guys are members, we're able to make investments in other shows.
01:35:52.000The idea with Pop Culture Crisis was really simple.
01:35:54.000Mary and Brett know a ton about this stuff.
01:37:16.000So he said he's going to support Ron Paul or something, which was just ridiculous.
01:37:23.000Because he's got never-Trumpers whispering in his ear.
01:37:25.000Yeah, but you've got two million followers.
01:37:27.000You've got to be careful with a platform like that.
01:37:29.000And I understood later, somebody called me and explained he's got very bad people surrounding him that are just absolutely... That poor kid.
01:37:38.000But I think us piling on him is why he then turned around, in my opinion, because he's like, OK, I'm going to lose everything I got.
01:37:45.000I better shut up here and get on the right side.
01:37:47.000And maybe breaks him apart from those people that were putting that stuff in his ear.
01:38:08.000And so he's surrounded by NeverTrumpers who have been telling him likely that Trump supporters are cultists and that Trump's bad on 2A, you can't support him.
01:38:15.000Then they started showing him all the stuff that was anti, that claimed Trump was anti-2A.
01:38:19.000And then Kyle was like, wow, that's really bad.
01:38:21.000And they're like, you should make a video about it if you feel that way.
01:40:36.000Let's tell him that the real issue with Trump is not that Trump's bad, but that Trump's not good on 2A and Trump and the bump stock ban.
01:40:41.000Then we'll get all the Trump supporters, like Cat Turd and Joey, they're gonna rip him to shreds, and then we're gonna use that as proof.
01:40:47.000I've talked about this with how the Democrats do it.
01:40:50.000They invite college kids down to a peaceful protest, or they say stupid things like, Radiohead's playing at Occupy Wall Street.
01:40:55.000Normies show up, then the left intentionally instigates a fight with the cops so the cops beat the normies, then when the normies get injured or arrested, the activists go, see?
01:41:48.000You commented, told him that it was dumb to not... I tweeted some things, basically, that were just ridiculous and we shouldn't take this kid seriously.
01:43:08.000And so if you're a never-Trumper, and you know that Republicans are terrible at this stuff, you play the Democrat game.
01:43:14.000Get him to make a tweet, and then invariably, when the Republicans play the full hardcore, we're going to attack Kyle Rittenhouse and make him feel bad.
01:43:22.000Now they're sitting there going like, man, that's so awful that happened to you.
01:44:02.000She's a little bit older, a little bit mature, when she sort of developed, not by choice,
01:44:06.000but she was thrust into a position where she said, I'm going to speak out about this issue,
01:44:10.000and has kind of built herself a career off of that.
01:44:12.000Kyle was so young when this happened that I, you know, I remember at one point, I don't remember who he said this to, but, you know, someone I had talked to, he said, like, didn't Arizona State University, like, rescind his admission?
01:44:22.000Like, there is a certain point where he is a public figure, and I think people wanted him to be something that he was not naturally.
01:44:30.000I think it's sort of ridiculous to be like, He's not saying the thing that he should be, and I get to your point, he has a big platform and people look to him as a symbol, but the reality is that he is a young guy who is still actually developing his way in the world, and he is not the person that I would necessarily say how you tell people to vote is what you should listen to.
01:44:49.000Not because he couldn't be someone great one day, it's just right now he's sort of still developing who he is.
01:44:55.000I don't know that we need to make it a bigger issue than that.
01:45:02.000On the other hand, like, if you are saying everything Kyle Rittenhouse says is how you're going to live your life, like, probably not the best move.
01:46:11.000I mean, depending on how big your channel is.
01:46:17.000Josh Abeam, Killdown, says, been a subscriber since Tim started asking Would You Kindly and have been a TimCast member since it started because this is the only place online where minds are regularly changed about politics.
01:46:37.000I don't know the reference, but I know the game.
01:46:38.000So anytime the guy was asked, Would You Kindly do something, he was compelled to do it.
01:46:43.000So, in the game, throughout, he says, would you kindly do this, and then you as the character have to do a thing, and then it's revealed you're, like, under my control or something.
01:46:50.000Would you kindly hit the like and subscribe button?
01:46:55.000Anybody who says that phrase can compel someone?
01:46:57.000Or is it a certain person has to say it?
01:46:58.000I think you need to be bio-shocked, which... Alright, John Kristen says, I am convinced RFK got the brain worm from playing with that baby bear.
01:47:06.000I mean, it's possible he shoved his hand in his mouth.
01:48:42.000Tim, I'm just in a local game store, LGS, in South Carolina, that would love to host a Commander Night with you, Moon Lord, JD Vance, and myself.
01:48:51.000Never happened, I know, but that would be amazing.
01:51:04.000All right, George Crozer says, with all due respect, based on the use of Allah Akbar as a cry that has preceded attacks is the same as screaming Deus Vult despite 1A both shut down conversation and lead to violence.
01:52:20.000That is actually a fair point that, you know, I still do believe there's a degree of respect everybody gets for enlisting, but yeah, he was only, you know, was it two weeks a year?
01:52:45.000I have a friend who's in the Guard that I work with, actually, and they go maybe once every two, three months.
01:52:52.000I think they're doing trainings and stuff like that.
01:52:54.000But when Wahl says, I'm a veteran, I did all this, he's not the veteran that you're Yeah, that's what bothers me, because I think, I mean, again, I think people who enlist in the military, it's a service to the country, and I think that's good, and I would include National Guard in that.
01:53:07.000Absolutely, it's more than I've ever done.
01:53:10.000I just think it's different when you're trying to say, like, you're presenting the timeline of when you were there as if to imply that you deployed to the Middle East during, you know, combat time.
01:53:19.000Jerry J. Chapman says Trump didn't come up with tampon Tim, Bongino did.
01:55:27.000Alright, BidenBodyDouble says, I don't think they agree to a debate.
01:55:31.000I think this is the first year where the results of debates will actually dramatically affect people's opinions, especially since they don't know either of them.
01:55:38.000And then in the end, whoever is better at ballot harvesting wins.
01:55:41.000Democrats might be traumatized from that last debate.
01:55:44.000This is why they don't have any policy positions.
01:56:33.000You're the one who's been next to Biden the whole time.
01:56:36.000If you are such a weak, Useless human being that you couldn't stop him from doing bad things to the economy, or you couldn't push your economic agenda a little bit with this senile animal in office.
01:56:49.000What makes you think you're going to do it now?
01:56:51.000She also says—there was a statement, I can't remember which one off the top of my head, but that recently passed.
01:57:08.000Like, I get you might say it's a Republican one, you know, Republicans in state legislature, whatever, but like, Trump's not from that state.
01:57:16.000He wasn't even in elected office at the time.
01:57:18.000They're just trying to blame Trump for everything.
01:57:20.000And it does, again, kind of have this idea that he is this all powerful figure that they're very afraid of, which is funny because they're the current government.
01:57:27.000Christopher Grover says, Tim, can you make your best case for moving to West Virginia?
01:57:32.000My wife and I want to leave Oregon and escape somewhere more free.
01:59:00.000If I can add one thing, I would say West Virginia as a state is really looking to grow and change, and I think this is sort of getting on the ground floor level.
01:59:10.000I don't know if you have children, but the Hope Scholarship in West Virginia is an extremely impactful school choice initiative.
01:59:47.000We may actually have four buildings soon, and if we were to try and get something comparable near any major city, we'd have, I don't know, a 5,000 square foot house?
02:00:00.000The thing I like about West Virginia is it's obviously, you get a small state, a small city vibe.
02:00:05.000Not a small city, but a small town vibe, while not being too far removed from what I'd consider, you know, Great big cities.
02:00:57.000The best thing I like about West Virginia is that talking to your local and state-level politician is the easiest it's ever been, I've ever seen.
02:01:06.000It's not this ridiculously dense city where the phones are going off the hook and they have no time for you and they're always in D.C.
02:01:14.000No, it's like the state-level reps and politicians represent relatively few people and so if you go to them and say, hey, I want to do this thing, but this law, I'm confused, What does this cover?
02:01:45.000Alright, everybody, if you haven't already, would you kindly smash that like button, subscribe to this channel, share this with your friends.
