Supreme Court strikes down Biden's gender identity protections, someone tries to kill Donald Trump's plane, and Biden's Secret Service picks up Trump's security detail. Plus, we talk about why the rent in New York City is so damn high, and why Gen Z is starting to vote for Trump.
00:00:50.000And also a month ago, someone tried to kill frontrunner Donald Trump.
00:00:53.000So I just think this is a particularly interesting turn of events, especially considering Ted Cruz's prediction and Jack Posobiec's that Kamala Harris will be president before Election Day.
00:01:36.000But, you know, I had a, it was Danny Palaszczyk that they tell me about the rents in New York City.
00:01:41.000And so I'm looking it up and I got to tell you, no wonder Gen Z is starting to swing for Donald Trump because the The rent is just too damn high.
00:01:48.000So we're gonna talk about that and more before we get started, my friends, head over to Casperoo.com.

00:02:48.000Thanks for having me, always so fun to be here.
00:04:37.000I feel like she's going to somehow, someway become president before the election because then it's the incumbent and then it's why would anyone vote against, you know, we finally have a female president.
00:04:46.000We're going to ruin it in like a month or whatever.
00:04:50.000It would only work in their favor and they're willing to do anything that works in their favor.
00:04:53.000See, I'm not entirely convinced it would work in their favor.
00:04:55.000I think it might help, you know, the Biden legacy because they're trying to decide that he's going to be this like Great president.
00:05:01.000He's rolling out these all these initiatives that the media is not covering right now because there's no point.
00:05:07.000But she's walking this weird line where she is wanting to claim the victories of the Biden-Harris administration while also like kind of keeping them at an arm's length so that she can say, oh, well, well, I'm not responsible for those things, especially like she's talking about the economy today.
00:05:20.000You know, it's definitely with like the Israel-Palestine stuff.
00:05:23.000And so I think if she was definitely the president at the end stretch here, there'd be no way for her to untangle herself from the Biden-Harris administration the way she wants to.
00:06:54.000It's very astroturfed, but I'm almost wondering if they know they're going to lose, assuming elections are fair and they can't actually steal it.
00:07:12.000That's what it feels like to me, but also that's hinging on the idea that the elections are fair, which all this is for nothing, even the discussion of all of it, if they're not, so.
00:07:20.000No, I think it hinges on the idea that, you know, people are self-serving.
00:07:23.000I think there are people who are in politics, and probably any career, where they don't actually care about, like, the values or the outcome.
00:07:30.000They're there to make money, to have influence, and then move on to the next thing.
00:07:35.000I'm sure there's a ton of political strategists who are like, oh, sure, Kamala, we really think you're great, and first female whatever, but actually, you know, this is just a stepping stone in their career.
00:08:26.000Or it's they're setting it up so that when Biden something happens, then they can say, we were unable to get to Joe Biden in a timely fashion to save his life because we are too busy protecting Donald Trump.
00:08:39.000And Donald Trump was insisting on doing outdoor rallies when we told him he should not.
00:09:05.000Because that made the Pope look so relatable, right?
00:09:08.000People felt like he was just a normal person.
00:09:10.000I mean, I really do think that's interesting that, like, in the guise of saying, like, we're doing this for you to protect you, they're actually kind of putting walls between Trump and his supporters.
00:09:20.000In a way, though, I mean, it would be working in his favor in the sense of he can throw really huge rallies again.
00:09:25.000I mean, when he's allowed to do these outdoor ones, it's thousands of people.
00:09:28.000Yeah, but those are just people who already like him.
00:09:30.000The rally stuff doesn't even matter that much.
00:09:31.000I mean, this is the thing that I think I don't know.
00:09:35.000Trump brought on Corey Lewandowski, and that's great.
00:09:37.000But Donald Trump doing rallies, and everyone's showing these huge lines, and it's just like, right, who's willing to stand in line for Donald Trump but a Trump supporter?
00:09:45.000Where can Trump go to actually get new fans?
00:09:48.000I mean, it's good that he's on Axe, I guess, but we'll see.
00:10:53.000Grok, if you're, if you're on, what is it, like Twitter X Pro, or I said Twitter X Pro, whatever it's called, you get certain, you get access to their AI.
00:11:47.000And I think of, like, the Elon video, the AI video of them dancing and just having more fun with it.
00:11:52.000And we were talking about earlier, I think that he is actually being seen as the joy candidate despite the, you know, labeling of the other side being the joy campaign by Gen Z. I think Gen Z is super pro-Trump right now, which is new because in 2020 and 2016, young people didn't like Trump at all.
00:13:34.000When Trump was running in 2016, a lot of the memes were making fun of him, but in a way that didn't go after him politically.
00:13:42.000And so it gave Trump the air, it gave him the space.
00:13:46.000The coconut tree memes, that's the argument people are making right now for Kamala Harris, is that everyone making fun of her with the coconut tree and the unburdened by what has been, all they're saying is her name and branding her over and over and over again.
00:14:20.000Donald Trump's doing these rallies and he's doing these press conferences where he's basically preaching to the choir and the media then takes everything and lies about it to everybody else.
00:14:27.000I don't know what he's doing or what his plans are.
00:14:30.000I mean, it's literally like, I don't know what his plans are.
00:14:32.000I'm hoping he has some to reach out to new people.
00:14:37.000One of the most effective things I've seen online is videos where people are like, we haven't seen Kamala Harris in three years and all of a sudden she pops back up like there was one of this guy and I guess she went to go see like Team USA basketball when they were training and it's her walking in she's in like a suit and you know she looks like a Principal in the middle of a high school battle like in her heels and her pantsuit and they pan to all the players and they're all kind of like looking at each other like why is she here and I think that Those clips of her kind of resurfacing where you don't expect her are one of the best parts of the internet It's maybe not the strongest moment in meme culture, but there is this underlying current of like
00:15:16.000Oh yeah I kind of remember Kamala Harris, oh she's gonna run for president now?
00:15:20.000I think there are people who don't feel any kind of connection to her and that's why they try to foster this like but they're weird and and we're fun and cool energy.
00:15:28.000I think you have to kind of gauge where like super normie people are and what they're kind of saying whereas I'm very plugged into just left and right TikToks about the election right now and a lot of the middle of the road people are The lines that really resonate with them are, you've been in office for three and a half years.
00:15:45.000Day one was three and a half years ago.
00:15:47.000That's a big one I think Trump should continue hitting.
00:15:50.000And just the idea that there's no policies on one side, there's policies on the other side.
00:15:55.000She's trying to, you know, roll some out, but they're insane.
00:16:28.000She just wants you to suffer a little bit.
00:16:29.000Also, not to say that it shouldn't be a huge priority for Trump to reach independent voters, new people, etc., but I think there also is something you said about the fact that social media is doing a lot of the work for him because The internet's never been as free as now.
00:16:43.000Like, Elon really set a standard that other apps have, like, followed.
00:17:08.000Early on, Republicans wanted to ban it.
00:17:10.000Now Democrats want to ban it over the Israel stuff.
00:17:13.000And Trump's like, no, we're not going to ban it.
00:17:15.000I think TikTok is intentionally pushing Trump memes because they want Trump to win because Trump has said, I won't ban it now.
00:17:20.000And the Democrats are the ones trying to get it banned.
00:17:23.000I also just think, I think the TikTok traffic is all fake.
00:17:30.000So there's this there's this viral video of a woman and she pulls her pants down in an AT&T store and then she's like yells that I have a pee-pee or whatever and then they're like ma'am you need to leave and she's just like makes weird noises and then runs out and people were commenting like why would a person make this video it's like well duh because she's being rewarded for it on social media You go to her TikTok account, and she's got half a million followers.
00:17:54.000You go to her YouTube and Instagram, eh.
00:18:21.000In my personal opinion, and this could be wrong, I don't know.
00:18:23.000I think it's just algorithmic bots on TikTok to make people think, this is where I should dedicate my time and energy because I'm getting followers here.
00:18:31.000And simply put, if you're an influencer of any kind, if you're a personality for a public figure, your following is across the board.
00:18:41.000If you're famous on television, you're gonna have a Twitter following to a certain degree, depending on, you know, and it all correlates, your YouTube account, your Instagram account, your TikTok.
00:18:51.000I find it very strange there's a lot of people on TikTok, they have big followings, but then they have no following literally anywhere else, and no one's ever heard of them, but they act like they're really big.
00:19:00.000And I'll say this too, Dylan Mulvaney actually has followers on other platforms and other accounts.
00:19:04.000But this person pulling their pants down?
00:19:06.000So that's why I think all that is, is TikTok is promoting people who are engaging in psychotic, delusional, degenerate, and nuisance behavior to encourage Americans to do these things, which is detrimental to our society.
00:20:56.000If you're trying to be an influencer and you're marketing yourself to companies, the conversion rate is the biggest thing.
00:21:00.000I think what you said about YouTube is really interesting because I've seen like Totally non-political lifestyle, you know, influencers that I follow put a poll saying, well, do you want to see me more on YouTube or Instagram or TikTok?
00:21:13.000And overwhelmingly, if they have a base on a platform like YouTube, that's where people want to see them, which I think speaks, you know, it speaks to the attention span issue.
00:21:22.000Like you said, they're more invested, so they want more details.
00:21:26.000But I also wonder if the younger generations are more selective about the social media apps that they're on.
00:21:33.000I think you know at least I feel like I remember I got Instagram either in like early college or maybe late high school like it had just rolled out and you were kind of already on Snapchat and you were doing other things and I knew people who still had tumblers or like whatever it was and now this generation that has always had access to social media maybe just says oh I only want to be on TikTok I only want to be on this one place whereas you know the Influencer marketing really relies on you having an ecosystem of places that people can follow you.
00:22:03.000It's also the lowest effort to go viral, you know, it's nine second videos.
00:24:04.000It's so gross to me because this comes like right around, you know, yesterday Joe Biden did this joint appearance with Kamala Harris where he said that the right is trying to start a race war.
00:24:14.000And then we have this guy trying to play a caricature of a bumbling white guy to what impressed the diverse vice president of the United States.
00:24:23.000This is not the direction we want to go in.
00:25:09.000I'm not familiar with Minnesota's grocery store, but they have changed.
00:25:11.000I mean, the other thing is, like, I was telling Glare this before the show.
00:25:15.000Taco Bell was started by this guy from California who wanted to start a hamburger stand and then he went to work and he came back and he's like, oh, they're everywhere.
00:25:21.000And so he basically made, like, what we would deem the very basic version of the taco.
00:25:30.000But, like, even Taco Bell, even the grocery store, sells taco seasoning.
00:25:34.000So the idea that, like, This guy is so incompetent he doesn't even know how to season something, like, and you want him to be in charge of anything?
00:25:42.000And also her response is weird to me too, like, what is that?
00:25:48.000Like, I just, I don't understand why this, like, weird racial pandering is okay for them, and they're also saying it's the right that's gonna start a race war.
00:25:56.000It's so- He's literally pandering to a black woman To like, this is what the white liberals do.
00:26:03.000White conservatives would be like, I put chili powder, salt, little garlic, and some onions.
00:26:18.000And it unfortunately resonates with a lot of white people.
00:26:20.000If she were to win, this is what's going to be her entire relationship with him.
00:26:23.000You know the way they would say that, like, Joe Biden would be kind of the, like, bumbling but nice guy, like, being like, Obama, let's get ice cream and wear friendship bracelets or whatever.
00:26:31.000Like, it's always going to be her, like, explaining cool culture to bumbling white Midwestern guy.
00:26:36.000I mean, he could have been, like, Oh, I have a taco hot dish.
00:26:40.000And that would have really played up the Midwestern element, right?
00:26:42.000Like a hot dish is a specific... What is that?
00:27:03.000That's the state of white Democrats right now.
00:27:05.000There was a lot of viral tweets when Kamala first got installed, because you can't say that she got voted for, but when she was installed, a lot of viral tweets saying, white women, just get over it.
00:27:15.000Whatever you have to deal with now to vote for a black woman, get over it now.
00:27:19.000They were literally just guilting people into it.
00:27:22.000It's it's it's really ugly and it's a big statement about also this is the side that wouldn't sit down for any interviews still haven't not even past tense they're currently hiding and so they put out a scripted interview in place of a real interview it's like insane yeah and their whole relationship is so strange I mean yeah when she released that call Which was obviously so staged.
00:27:43.000Clearly they had already had this conversation.
00:27:44.000They're like, let's release this video where she's sitting at the conference table in her suit like she's a strong woman and he is like this folksy guy in jeans at his hometown and he's so excited to get this call from out like it's all fake.
00:28:16.000She wants to represent everything to everyone all the time, whatever they want them to be.
00:28:21.000They're going to make fake situations.
00:28:23.000She's running fake headlines on Google.
00:28:25.000Google's like, well, I guess she's allowed to do that.
00:28:27.000The Kamala campaign isn't running ads on why she should win.
00:28:30.000They're taking news articles, rewriting the headlines to make it seem like there's good things coming out about her, and then running that.
00:28:36.000Her whole thing is fake, that's true, but I think that works better than this.
00:29:17.000But that's why all their emotions, their arguments are a bit about fear-mongering, right?
00:29:21.000Like they want low intelligence, emotional voters to support them.
00:29:26.000And I just, I think that that is not a long-term strategy for success in the country.
00:29:31.000Maybe it wins in this election, but in terms of our culture and what we're driving towards, like just getting people to stare at each other all the time and say like, they're going to take something from me.
00:29:39.000They're going to ruin my life and, you know, have this like very negative, negative way of dealing with reality is going to force America to break.
00:29:47.000Trump should just promise ridiculous things.
00:29:50.000He should be like, would you vote for me?
00:30:36.000And I remember in 2016, a lot of people I knew being like, Yeah, I don't know what I'm going for, but Bernie sounds kind of cool because free college, right?
00:30:43.000And I was in college at the time and, you know, paying for college is extremely expensive.
00:30:48.000And I could see where that happens, but like, it's not that it's free.
00:30:55.000But then, but if you're only targeting low IQ voters, they don't know that, you know, they don't know that the price gouging policy is, you know, dangerous.
00:31:01.000They don't know that these things actually cause less economic prosperity rather than more so.
00:31:06.000It's sad that she is banking on that, and I do agree with Tim that it's like that does, I think, work better than trying to state the case intelligently, which is sad.
00:31:25.000You're sitting down calmly being like, okay, here's the issue with price controls, okay?
00:31:31.000You can't control for every aspect of the economy.
00:31:35.000So if you say something like, bread can't be sold more than $3, the issue then is the labor that has to go into making the bread is also a component of the workers who need to make a certain wage to buy the bread later.
00:31:48.000So when you're dealing with all of these different goods, The person making the bread has to make enough money from the bread, from the bread making, to buy bread themselves.
00:32:11.000That's why I think, I think Trump is aware of that though, or his campaign is, because they do seem to be not like dumbing things down, but doing more visual stuff, like walking out with the groceries on, you know, just trying to make it, put it in plain, you know, language and imagery for people, which I think is a decent way to combat it.
00:32:27.000Well, I'm trying to get my street cred with Kamala.
00:32:29.000So just in case anyone's wondering, when I make tacos, I actually pepper spray them.
00:32:33.000Because, you know, I take it to the extreme because, you know, I'm not like that white Tim Waltz.
00:32:39.000You know, I put pure capsaicin on all of my food for no reason.
00:33:03.000So when he's like peppers, I mean, you know, once that was actually a big deal, but like everything and saffron today is worth an insane amount of money.
00:33:10.000And this is literally white dudes and ships traveling from Europe all the way around the world going through like down past South Africa.
00:33:18.000Yeah, white people used to love spices.
00:33:20.000I mean, just so that food would taste good, they murdered each other.
00:33:23.000Yeah, there were all sorts of benefits to seasoning food, right?
00:33:29.000But again, it's just this stereotypical bumbling white guy who has no idea how this works.
00:33:34.000And I just think that's what they saw when they hired him, right?
00:33:38.000They're like, he's sort of from a rural state and he's white.
00:33:41.000So obviously all white men will just fall in love with him.
00:33:44.000And I actually think he's doing more to irritate them.
00:33:46.000Oh for sure and even just the rebranding of him as like using words like folksy and like putting put me in coach and all this stuff it's like that's the fakest part of it because it's not actually resonating with people in that demographic they want to target at least I don't think and also the idea that a guy who let rioters tear down a city that's the farthest thing from folksy like what I don't know what folksy means.
00:34:09.000Trump war room posted this video I don't know I don't know what it is but it's Kamala so I'm gonna play it.
00:34:53.000I'm sorry, these people standing behind her, they must have IQs of 70.
00:34:59.000I think the important question for each and every one of these people standing alongside Kamala Harris when she says this stuff is, if you didn't have breakfast yesterday, how would you have felt?
00:35:26.000I want to spend four years in the White House.
00:35:28.000And I will say that I guess we were a little bit black polled talking about, you know, the low IQ voter and how they're falling for it.
00:35:34.000But I actually think that Even really dumb people do kind of understand that, like, we were poorer the last four years than previously.
00:35:43.000So I think that could be some form of hope that, like, people do notice when they can't afford food or they can't fill up their tank, you know, even if they don't understand that this policy is actually communistic and this policy will cause this, you know, down the line, they do understand if they're broke now and they weren't under Trump.
00:35:57.000Let's pull this story from the Postmillennial.
00:35:59.000Trump brings in Tulsi Gabbard for debate prep against Kamala.
00:36:03.000Gabbard ran for the Democrat primary in 2020, this we know.
00:36:06.000Two people with knowledge of Trump's schedule told the New York Times that Trump had brought in Gabbard for a recent practice session at Mar-a-Lago.
00:36:12.000The outlet noted that Gabbard was brought in partly because of her own performance in 2019, where she eviscerated Ms.
00:36:19.000Spokeswoman for Trump, Carolyn Levitt.
00:36:21.000Send a statement that Trump had proven to be one of the best debaters in political history, as evidenced by his knockout blow to Joe Biden.
00:36:27.000He does not need traditional debate prep, but will continue to meet with respected policy advisors and effective communicators like Tulsi Gabbard.
00:36:56.000And frankly, if you want to compare Biden and Kamala just in terms of like remembering certain facts, you know, accurately stating things, it's like Biden was probably actually a little better than even Kamala.
00:37:07.000It doesn't seem like Kamala can speak off script at all.
00:37:10.000And that combined with the fact that Trump actually has a strong suit in debating these
00:37:14.000people, I feel like the debates are going to go really well, especially considering
00:37:17.000for us, obviously, especially considering she didn't accept the Fox News one, and that's
00:37:55.000I was watching this video from, I think it was like May, and it was just like an on-the-street interview about politics, really basic stuff, asking regular people what they think of Kamala Harris, and a lot of people said, who's that?
00:38:08.000You can't forget some people don't even know who the vice president is, you know?
00:38:11.000And then, I gotta be honest, I wouldn't be surprised if, so when people are getting polled on the phone, The pollster is going to say, in the 2024 election coming up in November, on the 5th, do you intend to vote for Donald Trump, or do you intend to vote for Kamala Harris, the Democrat?
00:38:29.000And what likely happens, people go, oh yeah, the Democrat, yeah, Kamala Harris.
00:38:32.000But then if you actually asked them, who are you voting for, pause, they'd probably be like, I don't know.
00:38:39.000This is another reason why polls are probably bunk.
00:38:43.000Because when I get polled, so I've done a few polls.
00:38:46.000It's funny because people are always like, I've never been polled before.
00:39:20.000People are just going to pick the D, obviously, but I don't know.
00:39:25.000I understand on like a really basic level why people really wanted Biden in in 2020, whether you believe there was no tomfoolery with the election or whatever.
00:39:59.000People are only going down on the hate meter for him.
00:40:01.000I don't think people are really loving Kamala, and that can maybe seem like I'm living in my own bubble because I'm pro-Trump obviously, but I just don't see it.
00:40:09.000I don't see black people loving her either.
00:40:11.000I don't know how important racial demographics end up being.
00:40:14.000There's always people saying it's more or less important, but I think black people don't like Kamala, and I think that's kind of a bad sign.
00:40:48.000It's like the worst city in the country.
00:40:50.000And people still remember that they scrubbed it right before Xi Jinping showed up, right?
00:40:53.000Like, people know that they were willing to do something about it when it had to do with China, and I think a lot of people – I think moderates, too, felt kind of – I don't want to say burned, maybe that's too strong, but like put off by that.
00:41:05.000That there are other places in America that need help, but they only care about these cities and the problems that are there when, you know, they're trying to impress what I would call a foreign adversary.
00:41:15.000Yeah, I think he should really hammer in, like, no, she is from San Francisco, and she did that to San Francisco, because I actually did know a lot of moderns when I lived in LA, and none of them were under any illusion that it was a well-ran state.
00:41:28.000A lot of them left, you know, and wherever they went and wherever they voted afterwards is one thing, but a lot of them were very aware it was a dumpster fire, so keep associating her with that.
00:42:00.000There's a lot of talk I've noticed just about how like they're just noticing like the desperation to get them to hate him and now it's like we're going on the third election cycle now and I think people get tired of feeling all that hate.
00:42:13.000I don't think it's a good emotion to actually have within you and I think that people are kind of understanding finally that like if everyone's out to get this guy, there's something to that.
00:42:51.000And then we got a second version of that with Biden's attempt at re-election.
00:42:55.000And now we're in the fourth installment with Harris, who came out of the gate being like, I'm a prosecutor and he's a felon and you cannot have this guy running the country.
00:43:03.000I imagine for moderates who lean left and definitely like voters who consider themselves Democrats, at a certain point you start to be like, you have to give me something else.
00:44:33.000Tim Murtaugh, who just joined the Trump campaign, he had been the campaign in the 2020 communications.
00:44:39.000He has an op-ed out right now where he talks about how the media has basically been like, taking He calls her untalented, like this untalented candidate and been like, turns out she's immaculate and she's the best thing to ever happen to anyone.
00:44:51.000I mean, it tells you that, you know, to a certain point, if you have mainstream media on your side, you could just be a sandwich and they would be like, amazing, run this, first sandwich elected to the president.
00:45:10.000And again, they're questioning the media more now than any previous election cycle having to do with Trump, which is a really good thing and it's in his favor.
00:45:19.000I guess to sum it up, it's like if the election is fair and free and the real voice of the people is spoken, it really does feel like the people are more so with Trump right now.
00:45:31.000So Mark Cuban, he's not a stupid guy, but he's not a perceptive guy, right?
00:45:38.000He tweeted, who is in charge of the executive branch of the United States and responsible for 100% of its policies?
00:46:48.000He tweeted something out, I remember, when they first announced Walz as the VP pick, and he was kind of addressing the faction of the party that were, like, not so happy about it, that maybe wanted a Shapiro, and he tweeted, like, you guys just don't get it.
00:47:00.000Kamala went from zero to hero in five minutes, and so will he.
00:47:04.000And I was like, Okay, you're almost there, but why do you think she went from zero to hero in five minutes?
00:47:09.000Is it because of lies, gaslighting, media propping her up?
00:47:12.000And is that something that's good for the country?
00:47:14.000Is that something that we should like?
00:47:16.000So I tweeted in response to Mark Cuban, who cast the tie-breaking votes, and somebody responded with a meme of Donald Trump, and he's sitting with Kamala, and he's got his arm around her, and she's pregnant.
00:47:28.000And I'm just saying, I don't know why this is the one thing everybody made, but these photos are everywhere on X right now of Trump and Kamala as a couple with Kamala pregnant.
00:47:38.000And I wonder if it was an inevitability, knowing that we had a female candidate, that people would make these things.
00:47:44.000I mean, yeah, it's just human nature, I guess.
00:48:46.000I was noticing the other day, I think I tweeted it out and a lot of people thought it was very true, that the Republican Party has never been younger and more racially diverse.
00:48:55.000And you can apply value judgments to that however you want.
00:48:57.000And the Democrat Party has never been older and more just like white cat lady-ish.
00:49:01.000Even all the rallies, it's just like older, white, angry women.
00:49:42.000No, the best one was when there's two cats laying on the street, and they're rolling around with each other, and their eyes are closed, and they're, like, nuzzling, and then another cat walks up and is just dead staring at one of them, and then one of the cats sees and runs away, and then the other cat's, like, confused, like, why'd you run?
00:49:56.000And then turns around and goes, oh, crap!
00:49:58.000And everybody was saying, like, he's cheating.
00:50:16.000Supreme Court declines to enforce Biden-Harris Title IX gender identity protections.
00:50:22.000The injunction against the ruling will stay in effect for now.
00:50:25.000They say in a 5-4 decision, the Supreme Court denied the Biden-Harris administration efforts to demand the changes to Title IX go into effect.
00:50:31.000The DOE, under Education Secretary Miguel Cardona, issued new rules making sweeping changes to Title IX of the Civil Rights Act, which equates equality in education.
00:50:40.000Those changes conflated biological sex with gender identity, making it so that protections set aside for women would also encompass men who said they're women, which is just like eliminates protections for women.
00:50:51.000So, this is the funny thing about this.
00:50:54.000Democrats are basically saying that they want to remove protections for women, but they don't want to say it because that would be anti-equality or whatever, I guess?
00:51:06.000And they're getting the woman vote this time around.
00:51:08.000More than anything, they're just getting women.
00:51:10.000I don't know why women vote for this stuff.
00:51:12.000Yeah, why do women see a female president and are like, I have to vote for her?
00:51:16.000I feel some sort of weird call of sisterhood.
00:51:18.000I just will never be able to relate to this.
00:51:20.000Well, I think it also kind of sucks because if she were to win, God forbid, if she were to win, I can't imagine us putting another woman president anytime soon.
00:52:02.000Like, everyone can have, you know, an abortion and we have tons of debt, but hey, we're giving you stuff for free because taxes are crazy high, but that's actually okay because we've expanded the social safety net.
00:52:11.000Like, I just don't believe that she has the kind of vision for America where ultimately, like, Like, every administration gets one thing right.
00:52:22.000But generally, I think that the direction she represents for the Democratic Party is one that does not have anything in common with just general American values.
00:52:46.000There's one thing where they're like, her policy on the housing just increased the cost of every house by claiming she's going to give government money for housing.
00:53:13.000Here's what we're going to focus on in the future.
00:53:15.000Trump comes out and says, Kamala did this, that and this.
00:53:18.000And so it really is Trump saying Kamala did bad things as a warning to what she will keep doing.
00:53:24.000And Kamala is ignoring that because she needs to.
00:53:27.000And then saying, here's what we want for the future.
00:53:30.000I think it'll be interesting to see how this actually resonates with people.
00:53:33.000Kamala's trying to define herself as, we need a better economy, we need, you know, like, have better healthcare, things like this, and Trump's trying to say, yeah, but look at what she's actually done.
00:53:44.000I wonder what's going to resonate more with people.
00:53:47.000Saying, I want good thing, or Trump saying, that person did bad thing.
00:53:55.000I think voters actually want a hopeful, positive president.
00:53:59.000But I think the Harris campaign's messaging is very similar to the Biden campaign messaging.
00:54:05.000Biden would also say, we're the party of the future and we're the party of hope.
00:54:09.000And then he would turn around and be like, January 6 and MAGA extremists and this.
00:54:13.000It's actually a deeply negative campaign.
00:54:16.000I think it's different to say like Kamala Harris is currently in the White House and this is our current situation.
00:54:23.000So if she doesn't take accountability, she cannot promise to be accountable in the future, which I think is what Trump is really doing.
00:54:31.000Ever since its inception, the MAGA movement, the Make America Great Again, is inherently hopeful and optimistic in a way that I haven't seen at least the Biden-Harris campaign or the Harris-Walz campaign.
00:54:44.000They have never offered that to voters.
00:54:46.000Yeah, also I think it's important to look at the context for which people, you know, did somewhat.
00:54:51.000You want to be a burden by the context?
00:54:53.000It's important to exist in the context of, but the context of the 2020 election was a lot of despair.
00:55:01.000Like people were watching the results as they were locked down in their homes, waiting for a vaccine to appear, whether they wanted it or not, right?
00:55:08.000It's like riots all summer and then an election.
00:55:26.000And I think people are just inherently better at seeing through that now, too.
00:55:30.000And the way Biden talked, I don't know what you guys watched of Biden's speech during this joint appearance in Maryland they just had, but a lot of the way that Biden talks about Harris was as if to say, like, This is just a continuation of my campaign and my administration.
00:55:47.000You know, he said, like, basically he's worked too hard and we can't give up the fight now.
00:55:50.000I mean, he is very clear that she is a part of his administration and the things that he has fought for and the programs that he has installed and the methods he's rolled out to try and help America, you know, shout out for the inflation and the lack of affordability.
00:56:10.000I'm sure she doesn't want that, but that's the reality.
00:56:13.000People are never going to be able to separate her from Biden.
00:56:16.000And if you think Biden did a bad job, there's no reason to think that Kamala would do better.
00:56:20.000Which no one really thinks did a good job, left or right, I feel like.
00:56:23.000And I feel like he's sabotaging her by, of course, trying to equate her with the administration.
00:56:29.000Because he's trying to save his own legacy, obviously.
00:56:33.000There's just not a lot of unity on that side right now.
00:56:36.000All of her events get protested by Palestine people and Biden saying, yes, she was part of these policies that I say are good, but Americans know are bad.
00:56:46.000There's not a lot of cohesive messaging.
00:56:48.000Do you think the Democrats would be in a stronger position if they had spent the last couple of weeks having lots of Democrats vie and campaign for the top position on the ticket and then at this upcoming convention like actually had an open convention and vote rather than installing Kamala Harris?
00:57:39.000I mean, it's impossible to say we're hypothesizing about things that we'll never know at this point.
00:57:44.000But I always wonder, you know, if they had wanted to rally support, if having a show of like, we have all these people coming out to make their case, like seeing these kind of micro rapid primary campaigns, and then having next week be people on stage arguing out if Democrats would feel Empowered and united and at the end they'd be like, this is the guy we picked him because in some ways I understand why they were like, we just have to have unity as fast as possible.
00:58:12.000So it's going to be Kamala Harris and no one's going to challenge her and we're just, you know, the only thing close to a competition was who she was going to pick to be VP, which of course voters didn't get a say on or at least Democratic voters didn't get a say on.
00:58:24.000But without that theater of politics of having people make their case and campaign and argue, Democrats have less stake in the game right now.
00:58:34.000And that's why, again, they have to hammer home this, like, no, it's the end of democracy if you don't come out in support of Kamala Harris.
00:58:39.000But if they had made it so, like, look, there was this crazy rapid battle for Democrats who came out of everywhere and this is the guy, like, that would have, I think, built a different kind of authentic momentum.
00:58:51.000It certainly would have aligned them closer with their purported values of democracy.
00:58:56.000If you haven't noticed, it's like they had Tourette syndrome with the word democracy.
00:59:00.000They couldn't even speak one word without using the word our democracy, the phrase our democracy.
00:59:04.000Now they don't even use the word anymore, it feels like.
00:59:09.000So it would have been more authentic for sure.
00:59:11.000But I just think they were scattered after Trump didn't get taken out.
00:59:17.000What's crazy to me is that the people who are to be least affected by all of the failures of Biden and Kamala, and Kamala waltz if they win, it's us.
00:59:27.000It's the people watching shows like this.
00:59:44.000I don't know how he actually ends up running.
00:59:46.000How he could be the nominee, it's gotta be someone else.
00:59:48.000If at that point, and I had my doubts, don't get me wrong, like, into March, I was like, I guess it's gonna be him, because the Ohio thing, like, I don't know how they replace him late in the game.
00:59:57.000But if in September you were watching my show and you were just like, I'm going to make
01:00:00.000a bet that Tim is right right now, that he's guessing, it's his prediction, I mean, your
01:00:05.000bet would have paid off, paid off huge.
01:00:07.000At that point, it was like nine to one for Biden.
01:00:10.000And so when Kamala and Biden screw policies up and they burn things to the ground and
01:00:14.000you watch informative news shows and it's like, oh, I don't know.
01:00:18.000The contract for beans from our bean importer is gone, so there won't be beans tomorrow.
01:00:24.000People are going to go out and they're going to stock up on groceries and food, and then a week later the news will report that stores are out of food.
01:00:30.000Ultimately, my point is, it's kind of like...
01:00:32.000It just feels we're trying so hard to make sure everybody knows so that we can have a better
01:00:37.000functioning system. But the people who are voting for Kamala Harris are the most likely to end up
01:00:42.000struggling. And we're watching it happen right now. It is Democrats who largely did not switch
01:00:49.000parties who voted for Joe Biden 2020 who are suffering now.
01:00:53.000And Kamala goes, food is up and gas up. And they're like, yeah, it's like, do you remember
01:00:58.000you voted for her? And what are you saying no? Okay, well at a certain point I'm kind of like...
01:01:03.000And I know the people who are watching this show and who do frequent it, they're going to be okay.
01:01:08.000If Kamala is handed a box of matches to burn the country to the ground, like, it'll suck for everybody, but we're going to be alright because we're going to see the fire coming and we're going to run to safety.
01:01:18.000But the people who voted for her are the ones who are really going to get ruined by this.
01:01:22.000Kind of reminds me of all the stuff in 2020.
01:01:24.000It's like, yeah, lockdowns affected everyone if you were living in a place that were locked down, which was almost everywhere in the country.
01:01:31.000But just even just being in the mental headspace of like, I will defy certain, you know, ordinances and orders just because I need to preserve my sanity and I need to live my life.
01:01:42.000Democrats were like not prepared to make a decision to preserve their own lives.
01:01:46.000Like they were completely at the whim of policies they supported, whether they Their real selves knew it or not.
01:02:59.000And I think because that was really happening in 2020 and 2021, 2022, that you're kind of going to see the effect of that in voters now.
01:03:07.000I wonder if that mentality is really being accounted for when we look at like the conversations we're having about promises in terms of policies or just generally like what people are expecting from politicians today.
01:03:21.000And I think that sometimes people, when they think of COVID and everything that happened around it, whether it was the riots, the lockdowns, the vaccine stuff, they think of 2020, but like for a lot of the country, that stuff lasted until 2022, like summer 2022.
01:03:34.000So a lot of people, I think, casted a vote in November, 2020, and they were like, I'm voting for hope.
01:03:53.000Madison Square Garden just sold out two nights for Kill Tony, and you had Shane Gillis up on stage as Trump.
01:04:01.000Shane Gillis is a guy who got fired from SNL because he made some edgy jokes one time.
01:04:06.000Now he's on stage at a sold out Madison Square Garden for one of the biggest, I think the biggest comedy podcast, one of the biggest comedy shows, period.
01:04:22.000And even with as bad as it's been under Biden, culturally I think we've made tremendous victories.
01:04:28.000Like the fact that This is why it's frustrating when the Trump supporters go after Rogan and stuff.
01:04:33.000It's like, bro, this is what drove all of the middle-of-the-road, South Park-watching millennial dudes to the Republican Party.
01:04:41.000Not because they're Christian conservatives or anything like that, but it's because they were watching edgy comedy and then got told they'd be fired if they said any of those jokes.
01:05:10.000You can even look at certain things like, Other metrics that people I think are less likely to kind of see as a positive thing for the Trump side is that country music coming back.
01:05:18.000I think people leaving blue cities during COVID, which again lasted all the way until 22, suddenly they're living in Tennessee.
01:05:26.000I think there's a black-pilled way to look at it, which is like, oh, they're coming and they're just voting blue in Texas.
01:05:31.000But I think a lot of them actually are not.
01:05:34.000I think a lot of them are coming and they're finally having conversations with people on the other side of the aisle.
01:05:38.000There was a point where Rogan was like the only window into right-wing culture other than like the few right-wingers that were allowed to be on Twitter at the time.
01:06:40.000And, you know, SNL was a huge institution for a long time, but from And I wish I had the numbers to verify this, but I have heard that its viewership is significantly down.
01:06:50.000So in some ways, like, while it might be still, you know, for some up-and-coming comedians, a good way to get exposure, of course, it is still a big platform.
01:06:58.000For someone who wants to be on the cutting edge, it's actually not where you want to be.
01:07:03.000It's inherently the institution, whereas, like, comedy podcasts and these other things are actually kind of paving the way and therefore on the edge of the trend.
01:07:12.000Yeah, they had the first non-binary cast member on SNL.
01:07:17.000It was the most embarrassing thing I've ever seen.
01:07:19.000It was like just some fat white lady with a men's basketball hat on or something.
01:07:42.000The logic behind it, maybe there's none, it's just, I said it therefore, and that's what Democrats do.
01:07:45.000Well it's white, so the white guilt, you get a minority point, which... Right.
01:07:50.000The white guilt stuff I think cannot be understated, how that's really taken over, that's why they picked Wallace, he's that caricature, and that is what is communicating really well to people, to hate yourself because you're white, you know, and... I just think it's not working with younger people though, and I know it's kind of like a, you can't count on young people to vote, and vote someone in, but, I feel like, Red pill Gen Z is probably going to have a much higher likelihood of voting than blue pill Gen Z, if that makes sense.
01:08:17.000I don't see non-binary, they-them core commie people going and actually going to the polls and making sure they're registered to vote and all that.
01:08:25.000But I think young people who are disaffected by all the propaganda and have seen through it, I think they want to vote.
01:08:41.000And so, why would Gen Z, many of these voters who are entering, will be voting for the first time, why would they vote for the candidate The VP who is responsible for this.
01:09:07.000But if you're upset about the economy, and you can't function because of it, and then you're going to vote for the party that is currently actively responsible for what's going on, well, then, like, you deserve it, I guess.
01:09:16.000But we looked this up earlier, because The other day I was talking to Danny Polischuk, comedian, and he was saying that in New York the rents are insane now.
01:09:25.000The average rent in New York is $3,801 a month for a 600 square foot apartment.
01:09:59.000And I've seen a lot of videos with them talking and viral videos of them talking about how we just want to be able to live.
01:10:05.000Like it actually matters to them a lot.
01:10:07.000And you think about how hard it was, just like you said, for us when we got out of high school, I can't imagine being Gen Z, getting out of high school right now.
01:10:13.000My God, I'm a little younger than you, Tim.
01:10:18.000They say the expense of rent and trying to live on your own is driving a lot of Gen Z to just live at home with their parents, which people will say is a bad thing.
01:10:23.000being a YouTuber at that point, making okay money, you can't do that working a regular
01:12:43.000And I think it's probably intentional.
01:12:45.000Democrats are probably intentionally doing this because they want you to live in the pot and eat the bugs.
01:12:50.000It does take a certain amount of compliance to be like, well, this is just the way it is.
01:12:53.000I have to be a part of this, you know, rat race and I have to live in this area to feel like I'm going anywhere with my life.
01:13:01.000But that's also where they overplayed their hand with COVID and how restrictive they were because then people were moving out of these cities and people were starting to work remote.
01:13:09.000And I think people really just got pilled on like real life.
01:13:13.000Like they started, I mean, I know for me, it was like almost a, It was almost supernatural, the difference between going from like a two bedroom apartment in Hollywood to moving out to a house in Austin.
01:13:23.000And just the concept of like, there not being violence all around me, like to the literal level of like, oh, there's no gunshots.
01:13:31.000Or, oh, the air, you can breathe it without feeling like it might be risky.
01:13:35.000Or, you know, you take those things for granted.
01:13:38.000And I think that's also going to play in Trump's favor in the election is that a lot of people finally rediscovered like living outside of these like democratic hellholes.
01:13:46.000Because there's no argument for when you see the worst ran places in the country, they're all ran by Democrats.
01:13:51.000Like for me, it's an easy decision to vote Trump because I grew up in California.
01:13:55.000I lived there for most of my adult life.
01:13:56.000And so I know what it's like to live in a blue city and a blue state.
01:14:00.000Most people, you know, they never get out, but now they have.
01:14:03.000So I think it's going to be some unexpected flipping of counties too.
01:14:07.000I think counties are going to be all over the place flipping to red and it's going to be fun to watch.
01:14:28.000All I know is culturally Trump is more popular, which probably does filter down to everything, you know?
01:14:34.000I don't think people waking up to Trump are not necessarily waking up to possibly voting Republican in other ways as well, but culturally it's more right-wing right now for sure.
01:14:44.000I think that the – my impression, and maybe you would know better than I would because you're more into TikTok and you're more aware of this than I am because I'm effectively a boomer, but I think a lot of younger voters are open to the idea that this label of Republican Democrat is not perfect.
01:15:05.000And so they are able to see across the aisle more than older generations.
01:15:10.000I think that they're able to say like, I think some of it is cultural, like attitudes on marijuana, right?
01:15:15.000That used to be like kind of built as like a hippie left thing.
01:15:19.000But actually, I think there are a lot of like crunchy right wing people who are like, No, we need to stop taking big pharma.
01:15:24.000We should see what we can use and whatever else or like, I don't know.
01:15:29.000There's a lot of like cultural stuff where if you ask younger generations, they're actually more moderate or they're more willing to talk to each other about it than older generations.
01:15:38.000Also, I think sort of an unaccounted for thing is I think a lot of people, and this is people in my family that skew younger that have kind of told me this, which is shocking.
01:15:49.000A lot of people are really upset about the vaccines and the mandate specifically.
01:15:53.000Not necessarily that it harmed them or anything, but I think a lot of people are kind of horrified that one side of the aisle forced a needle into their arm.
01:16:01.000Like I was talking to my nephew the other day and he just randomly said something about
01:16:05.000how like, I don't want to ever hear about a vaccine ever again.
01:17:14.000they filled the skate parks up with sand, and I think the kids that lived and grew up under that are now old enough to start understanding, like, okay, which party did that?
01:17:29.000True, but I think that there's more credit to be given to them that I think they do understand which party kind of supports certain things.
01:17:36.000Because they're also, you've got to remember, the culture we grew up in, our ages, we're a little different in ages all of us here.
01:19:42.000Not only do you have to go to a longer route, you have to go to like particular places to charge.
01:19:47.000When you do charge, you don't charge all the way.
01:19:50.000And then you get all this range anxiety for everything you do, you know I don't like to speed but sometimes you like to floor it and like I feel like you see a Drop in percentage.
01:20:00.000I'm an energy consuming guy I want to be able to go to the station pump up two minutes fill her up and go two minute man I'm not trying to like hang around for 20 minutes when you're at some of these EV stations and Not only that, they're always crowded.
01:23:07.000So if a lithium battery gets punctured, it rapidly will oxidize, burst into flames.
01:23:12.000Then you're spraying water on lithium and- have you guys ever seen a lithium water reaction?
01:23:16.000Yeah, see, Sarah, you know what I'm talking about.
01:23:17.000Imagine how much money you would have to invest.
01:23:19.000Like, one person in your town gets an EV, but you don't know what fire truck is going to show up there.
01:23:24.000Like, it's just, it's, I don't think it's as romantic as a lot of the left-wing progressive thinks it is.
01:23:30.000It's like, well, just make everyone buy an EV and everything will be fine.
01:23:33.000No, so much of our culture and our infrastructure has changed to accommodate it.
01:23:37.000I'm not totally against them, but just like, in this case, like, it's not like you just walk out of a rental car.
01:23:41.000It's also another leg of like, Control of movement.
01:23:44.000It's like yeah, you can't drive as much and you can't go as far and you have to stop Yeah, it's a control of movement as well I think Harris said she was she went to school, but honest to school on a school bus on an electric She said she went to school on an electric school bus a little bit, too This is a video from T core and first thing he's doing is taking a torch to a piece of lithium So this is what happens.
01:24:42.000It's been a long time since I did the science.
01:24:44.000Is Elon Musk involved in the PSYOP trying to get everybody to be, to drive electric vehicles?
01:24:48.000No, he wasn't allowed to be in the call.
01:24:50.000Like they had some big meeting of like electric vehicle makers.
01:24:53.000And I think he tweeted about it being like, I, I'm kind of known for this.
01:24:57.000And they, they just, they really don't like Elon Musk.
01:25:00.000Blair, I wanted to ask, because I got here so soon, and you are so significant, I feel like, online and in the right, as probably one of the most popular transgender right-wingers online.
01:25:13.000Can you tell me the significance of that, and what role you think you and people like you play in the Republican Party and right-wing writ large?
01:25:22.000I mean, I think just on an individual level, I sort of think of it as just like I'm a person who posted videos and started getting attention and it hasn't stopped.
01:25:49.000I think that it's more sizable of a voting bloc now than ever.
01:25:54.000So I think it's smarter rather than dumber to include them in some way.
01:26:01.000And also you think of like a lot of cultural forces.
01:26:03.000It's like sometimes it's not a matter of being against or for a certain cultural force.
01:26:08.000It's about sort of reigning in which way it goes.
01:26:12.000So there's a lot of conversation on LGBT right-wing social media about areas we have to moderate and things we have to pull back on, like things that leftists have sort of controlled the narrative over, whether it's trans stuff, gay stuff.
01:26:28.000And so I think more than an importance to the right, there's more of an importance to moderate the LGBT stuff and the excesses, especially when it comes to kids transitioning.
01:26:37.000I don't focus on Who I'm helping or benefiting, I just try to create the change that I want to see in the world.
01:26:42.000Like, I don't agree with things like kids transitioning and yet I find myself grouped in with this, you know, community of people who that's like a core value of theirs and I just never related to that from the start.
01:26:55.000I didn't even have a turning point where I was like, I liked it and then I didn't like it.
01:26:58.000It was always like that one plus one equals two, that's bad for me.
01:27:02.000So it's more about controlling the narrative on that side, actually, more than anything else.
01:27:07.000I know there's a lot of Black MAGA influencers who feel incumbent upon them to try to reach out to the Black community, because that's some of Trump's worst-performing voting group.
01:27:55.000I guess I just don't think too much about like, I'm trying to create this effect.
01:27:59.000I just try to call things as I see them.
01:28:02.000And a byproduct is, you know, I think I have opened a lane on especially YouTube, where there's just so many more now of people in that vein, which is good.
01:28:12.000And I think I just happen to be one of the first And I think overall it's a net positive that people just feel more open to express themselves in a different way because it is kind of a dark thing that there is an expectation to hold certain beliefs.
01:28:30.000Just the same way that black people feel insulted by that, you know, when you have videos of Kamala Harris on Twitter saying, if Trump wins, you're going to have no rights if you're LGBT.
01:28:38.000I mean, that feels like abusive to me.
01:28:40.000It's a lot of gaslighting, a lot of Feeling of ownership over a community that I think is degrading.
01:28:46.000You saw that video of the gay trans man who had an abortion?
01:29:04.000And I laughed because it's funny, but there is another lens you can look at it, which is like, it's really sad that there's like a person, regardless of what words you're using to describe themselves, that's so fearful and for sure.
01:29:18.000And also, I think the media and also politicians that use and abuse these people and mobilize them for votes.
01:29:24.000I saw like a very small person in a way, not in size, but in spirit because of that.
01:29:29.000I will say, you know, blame goes all around for sure, but parents are the front line.
01:29:34.000And so a lot of what we've seen in this generation is parents sending their kids off to institutionalized learning facilities with pride flags everywhere and then just being like, I can't believe this happened.
01:29:44.000And actually that woman, the second one, who says she got an abortion, she was like, my dad's really conservative and he's voting for Trump.
01:29:51.000And this dad probably said, I got a daughter, daughter, okay, you're five, off to the government learning facility to be indoctrinated by the state.
01:29:58.000And then now they're shocked to find out the state has made her into this.
01:30:02.000But it's also rebounding for a lot of them just like I was saying a few minutes ago about my nephew who's 18 and he's all of a sudden saying he's rejecting the idea of future vaccine mandates and he also by virtue of you know him being my nephew he's able to differentiate like okay all this stuff that my 45 year old white you know childless weird teacher is telling me is what trans is he's like but Blair's in my family and that's not something that she agrees with.
01:30:29.000So I think that it is rebounding and people are waking up and rebelling against it.
01:30:34.000I wanted to follow up with you and ask because I do think there's a lot of turmoil in the Republican Party now with like the socially conservative leg and like the now we'll call it more progressive LGBTQ leg.
01:30:47.000Do you think you guys can coexist in the same party?
01:30:49.000How would you respond to one of these guys who might say, like, you do more to normalize the trans issue than any left-winger could because right-wingers accept you?
01:30:58.000And many people perceive you as a woman, a biological woman.
01:31:02.000Yeah, I mean, I guess it's a matter of, like, it's hard for me to skew my actual power because I'm living as me, I guess, and I just kind of see myself as, because I'm constantly, you know, fighting against, like, the entirety of the left political establishment as it relates to LGBT issues, I don't really see myself as, like, gaining a lot of traction because they really have the cultural narrative.
01:31:22.000I guess we're starting to on the other side of it, trying to moderate these things, but what I mean is, like, You could have that perception and there's definitely a battle over, you know, a Republican versus a traditional conservative or someone with religious values.
01:31:36.000Those things are not necessarily synonymous, especially when our, you know, our guy is Trump, especially because he's just, I mean, you can sort of equate him with more traditional conservatism because he has like a foot in that world, but he also has like a foot in this more secular world.
01:31:54.000Um, I think maybe if we were under like a, even like a George W. Bush or something, then I guess so, but it's just not really the party of super hardcore traditional conservatism anymore.
01:32:05.000And that, that's why a lot of, not even just LGBT people are, you know, a lot of other minorities and groups of people feel more comfortable on the right.
01:32:11.000And at the end of the day, I mean, it is more vote.
01:32:14.000So there's different ways to look at it.
01:32:15.000If you are a traditional conservative and you want the, You know, direction of it to go in that direction, then you're going to feel at odds.
01:32:22.000But if you're someone who is more secular, which is a way faster going, you know, group of people than people who are clinging to the traditional Christian values, not that there's anything wrong with them, then you're going to say that the Big Tent is a better argument.
01:32:35.000There are a lot, and I would say like a large portion of Trump's base are They're not fans at all of transgender ideology.
01:32:47.000They would actually argue that it shouldn't be allowed.
01:32:50.000There are a lot of people, and it's varying degrees, but what we're seeing is the alliance between moderates and the Republicans because the Democrats are psychotic.
01:33:22.000And then you have these, like, active liberal pundits who are more sociopathic.
01:33:26.000And so moderates, post-liberals, disaffected liberals, and people who normally don't align with Christian conservatism are now aligned with Republicans in voting because the left is crazy.
01:33:38.000I think it's a strong possibility that in 10 years, if Trump wins and the right makes great footholds, the Democrats will either dissolve, go insane, or eschew far-leftism and force a correction to the moderate.
01:33:56.000Because moderates now will start disagreeing with conservatives and then will be offered up an alliance with moderate Democrats who are going to say, hey, wow, yeah, we're not that party anymore.
01:34:06.000Look at Republicans in the 2000s, George W. Bush.
01:34:09.000How many Republicans were like, we gotta get the war on terror, you know, we need the surveillance, we need the DHS.
01:34:14.000How many of these guys have come out now and said, we were wrong about all of that?
01:34:17.000Tucker Carlson's come out and said it quite a bit.
01:34:19.000So imagine 15, 20 years from now, the right has a massive stronghold in institutions.
01:34:25.000The far left has been completely disintegrated because they lose every step of the way.
01:34:29.000And you end up with more moderate Democrats now saying, I was completely wrong about all of that stuff with the lockdowns.
01:34:35.000Just like Tucker is now, and then moderates are like, okay, I don't align with conservatives in this way, and you get the pendulum swing.
01:34:42.000I mean, it's been actually... Oh, dude, the attacks on Joe Rogan.
01:34:46.000And then just speaking to people waking up that they were wrong about certain things on the left, it's like, I remember during 2020, and even through 2022, I was always very vocal against lockdowns and vaccine mandates, and it played over almost like a 60-40 thing in my audience, because I do have a lot of liberal followers, too.
01:35:04.000And now there's not any liberals in my audience that whenever I mention anything about lockdowns or anything like that, they're all in agreeance like, yeah, that was some crazy, crazy stuff.
01:35:15.000Yeah, I think we're seeing a political realignment of the parties.
01:35:19.00010 years ago, you wouldn't have thought this many Hispanics are voting Republican.
01:35:22.000And in 10 years from now, the Democrats will not be able to maintain their stranglehold on the black community, on black voters.
01:35:32.000I feel like it's just becoming Americans versus people who want the destruction of America.
01:35:44.000I mean, I think we're all very online people, and so we're aware of like, there's a faction on the right that wants this, and a faction on the left that wants that, and all that's real.
01:35:53.000You know, these are real people, of course, but on the ground level, when you just kind of exist in the world, it's most people are just normal people that just want to see the country prosper and they might be wrong or correct about ways to achieve that but I think the more anti-American and frankly anti-human that the left becomes I think it just throws more people off and so you do have way more moderate people on the right which is going to upset people that are more so purists that want it to be on the traditional conservative side but I mean there's a lot of people hurting from leftist policies and leftist politicians and sort of the stranglehold they've had on culture and they do need somewhere to go you know.
01:36:28.000And they don't think they can hide anymore the effect that... No, they can't.
01:36:32.000I heard you guys... I was listening to you guys while I was on the way here.
01:36:35.000You guys stopped talking trash about New York City and L.A.
01:37:13.000And I think also, as more people become moderate and more people are hurt by these leftist policies, it kind of will force, I think, Democrat politicians to at least feign a little more moderation, which is why they're starting to steal Trump's policies, which you really can't point to any Trump policies that are radical or that are representative of any sort of extreme or fringe, regardless of how hard they try to paint them as that.
01:37:32.000I mean, they're very middle of the road, like speaking to normal people.
01:37:36.000Otherwise, Kamala wouldn't be stealing them.
01:37:38.000They love to talk about, in hyperbole, when they speak of another Trump presidency.
01:37:45.000It's always the end of democracy, or fascism's coming back, or it's, I couldn't even fathom another Trump presidency.
01:37:52.000I was listening to a Nancy Pelosi interview with Ethan Klein earlier today, and that's what she said to him.
01:37:59.000She said, I couldn't fathom, well, I just, you didn't even know what they're talking about.
01:38:03.000Or like, I like to keep tabs on all the Democrats.
01:38:05.000But she was saying, I couldn't even fathom another Trump presidency.
01:38:08.000And I'm thinking like, with the co-equal branches of government, and with the first Trump presidency already having happened, I can't imagine what he could do, what he could accomplish.
01:38:20.000I'm assuming not much if he even was given a second term.
01:38:24.000That's why it's just, he's going to take your rights.
01:38:27.000I feel like I have a pretty decent way to gauge where everything is, just because I do have a mixed bag of followers.
01:38:33.000I think I am inherently more accessible to Democrats following me just because I'm trans, and then I'm more accessible to right-wingers following me because I'm not a Democrat.
01:38:40.000And like, the only pushback I get, the only talking point is, he's gonna take away your rights.
01:38:45.000There's this vague, you know, invoking just emotion, and that's why they hinge on things like Project 2025, and they're desperate to talk about that.
01:39:08.000We got select bollard fencing in key areas.
01:39:11.000I think he should hone in on the war thing more, though, because I think that... I don't know.
01:39:16.000It's like, we could talk about trans stuff or black issues and all this stuff, but when it comes down to it, a World War III is like a potential extinction event, you know?
01:39:25.000I think he should really hone in on the fact that there was no new wars under me, and we ended up in multiple wars under Kamala.
01:39:31.000I wish she talked more about the wall.
01:39:52.000Vibe, I think vibe's got a good chance of winning.
01:39:54.000But I think we've had examples of that in the past, right?
01:39:56.000I mean, this is the famous thing about the, the, uh, Nixon JFK debates, that if you saw Well, JFK on TV, he looked better because he wore the makeup and he sounded better, but people who listen via radio thought Nixon had done better.
01:40:08.000I mean, I think that there is a division in the way people consume information and Trump, you know, maybe not right now, maybe they're trying to get the momentum back, but like Trump does have a signature vibe.
01:40:19.000There's a reason people are drawn to him.
01:40:21.000With Kamala Harris, she's trying to tap into the vibes that kind of exist with what Gen Z, the progressives who have dogs instead of children, like, I don't know what it is.
01:40:29.000But there, it's just a different approach.
01:40:32.000And I think after the DNC, we will really start to get to see what the comparisons of if they're able to hold the attentions of whoever they think is their base.

01:42:01.000I want to give a shout out to Alex Baheshti, sitting in the hospital with my wife, who just gave birth to our twin girls, watching TimCast.
01:42:45.000I mean, the Tim Waltz taco thing was so weird.
01:42:48.000But there is, like, the different level of integrity, too, is that, like, you only see the horse semen stuff from online kind of trollish people, whereas, like, they're at the actual rallies talking about the couch.
01:42:58.000John W. Christen IV says, Milo is insufferable.
01:43:01.000He absolutely destroyed the Tommy Robinson interview.
01:43:04.000Never have him back on and let it fade back into being—let him fade back into being irrelevant.
01:46:09.000Saying that Madonna posting her and Hillary dancing is comparable to Trump posting him and Elon dancing is not saying Trump is going to lose the election because of one meme.
01:46:20.000I'm saying, don't bring the Hillary vibes.
01:46:23.000When Trump made fun of Bill Barr and said, I'm removing lethargic from my statement, that's the meme energy we want.
01:46:29.000That's like the best roast I have ever heard in my life.
01:46:34.000I'm saying, whoa, whoa, hold on there.
01:48:32.000Does anybody have advice for Gen Z trying to get into politics?
01:48:35.000Join your high school and college and local Republican or Democrat or independent club.
01:48:42.000I didn't do that, but I think that's a good way.
01:48:44.000No, get involved with local campaigns and network.
01:48:47.000Meet people and see what doors they can help you open.
01:48:50.000All the debate kids turn into politicians, so I guess maybe that.
01:48:56.000I feel like we've had non-traditional routes through social media, but I know people at my college who were in the Democrat or Republican clubs did have a lot of connections and were able to involve themselves on The Hill or on campaigns.
01:49:13.000It's like if you're interested in something, go there and be a part of it.
01:49:17.000They grab interns from those clubs all the time, and if you want to run for office someday, just start branding yourself online, I would say.
01:49:24.000IsThisDom says, YouTube just took me off the stream and played a Blue Man Group video.
01:50:30.000Like I said, he could have been like, oh Kamala, I make amazing taco casserole or pot dish or whatever it is.
01:50:37.000He could have leaned into being Midwestern and said he looked at all of his constituents who got him elected and said, I don't care about you.
01:50:43.000I'd rather be a bumbling white caricature for 15 minutes of fame, let's see if this works, than actually have loyalty to the culture that I'm theoretically representing.
01:51:23.000I think they're kind of trying to recreate Obama-Biden's dynamic where it's like Obama is cool and he's younger and then we have, you know, sort of like well-meaning but slightly doddering Joe Biden who's next to him.
01:53:34.000Bernie Sanders had a lot of people at his rallies.
01:53:37.000They mention Project 2025 more often than I thought they would.
01:53:43.000And then do you go like, hey, that's not a thing?
01:53:45.000Well, I'll ask him more about it, and it'll just be like a catch-all Republican, take our rights away, eat away at our democracy.
01:53:53.000So there's... it's all hyperbole. You know what I would ask?
01:53:55.000I'd be like, do you feel... so I'd say like, you know, why are you voting for Kamala? And say, oh,
01:53:59.000Project 2025. I'd be like, oh, okay. And what about Project 2025 worries you the most? Then I'd say
01:54:05.000something like, are you aware that the director of Project 2025 stepped down and Trump called the
01:54:09.000whole thing a hoax and says he doesn't want to be involved in it? What would you say to that? And
01:54:13.000then when... you've asked them that, I imagine, right? What do they say? They all...
01:54:17.000They will all keep blaming it on Trump, and they will just keep attaching to it.
01:54:20.000They don't care if he's denounced it, they don't care if the president stepped down, they'll just say this is a cover, they're coming for our rights, they're coming for abortion rights.
01:54:29.000Right, but then afterwards you go, are you at all worried about being embarrassed that people online will see you saying something like, even though it's not true, I don't care anyway, it must be?
01:55:06.000I'm hoping, uh... Sounds like NES, hopefully!
01:55:10.000I have such of a conflict of interest, but like, uh... No, we want it to be peaceful, and this is why I call, uh, journals call themselves vultures.
01:55:20.000This is why I didn't like being in that job, because the journalists are all cheering for the violence and destruction.
01:55:25.000At the RNC, there was hundreds of journalists, when there were almost as many reporters as there were protesters.
01:55:34.000The Bolton stash doubles as, like, a leftist dirtbag stash, so I'm gonna try to blend in a bit.
01:56:09.000Andrew Ho says, in yesterday's show, which I will confess I only saw a short of, but you were talking about the Trump New York hush money payment trial and a one-year jail term.
01:56:18.000Not sure if you mentioned Benny Thompson's bill to remove Secret Service for presidents jailed for one plus year.
01:57:13.000I thought it was going to be a house arrest until Brandon Strzok said, why would they stop there?
01:57:18.000And I'm like, that's actually a good point.
01:57:20.000There is no logical assessment that after doing literally everything, like trying to seize his properties from him, That they would just be like, okay, no, no, no, no, no, no.
01:57:29.000Well, it would be a bad standard to set and Democrats should fear that DAs in Republican... But it's a bad standard to set to convict him of a case with no underlying crime.
01:58:08.000The assessment is based on the attempts to stop Trump.
01:58:11.000Why would we now disregard every factor in what May took across and think this was going to happen?
01:58:16.000That is to imply, with the latest video that got released of the assassination attempt, where all these cops are screaming, like, what is the Secret Service doing?
01:59:11.000Based on the fact that they've done everything from impeaching him twice, accusing him of rape, charging him in numerous states, charging him at the federal level several times, charging him with 34 felonies.
01:59:20.000He's like, man, at this level, we're heading towards an assassination scenario.
01:59:25.000I feel like there was a distinct vibe, like, the day it happened, that like, oh, this was a long time coming.
01:59:30.000Like, it felt like an inevitability when it happened.
01:59:33.000Like, it made sense with the trajectory.
01:59:35.000With everything they've been doing to him, yeah, a lot of people thought this was going to happen.
