Transcript
00:00:00.000
You see Newsom completely change the way he's campaigning.
00:00:04.000
Completely change the way that he's campaigning.
00:00:10.280
And by the way, believe it or not, this is helping him.
00:00:17.260
So he's put this up there saying the Patriot shop is now open.
00:00:22.460
It's literally everything that Trump does, he copied.
00:00:26.260
Newsom was right about everything that Trump said that he was wearing just last week.
00:00:33.140
Newsom, 2026, even though he's not running in 2026, he's talking about the midterms.
00:00:38.760
One by one by one, he's taking shots at everybody, okay?
00:00:44.280
He said, we just sold $100,000 worth of material.
00:00:49.280
Donald Trump was president during the last census, okay?
00:00:54.740
Every chance he gets, whether it's him, his team, or somebody doing it, it's calling him out.
00:01:05.100
And by the way, we report whether we like the news or not.
00:01:09.980
Get this, up 450% in terms of the number of followers since mid-June.
00:01:16.760
And it's not just on Twitter, X, where Newsom is gaining.
00:01:20.380
Even on TikTok and Instagram, his followers are up over a million since January alone.
00:01:26.880
And more than that, Laura, more than that, what about Google?
00:01:31.420
Get this, daily Google searches for Gavin Newsom, up like a rocket.
00:01:41.020
So the bottom line is, in politics, especially if you're thinking of entering in 2028, it's
00:01:46.840
And so far, Gavin Newsom has done a good job at generating attention.
00:02:15.500
Like, there are people that are born in a certain way, and they become Democrats.
00:02:20.960
You know, like, I'm sitting there right now, and I'm watching this video, Vinny, which is
00:02:26.520
And I'm going to play the clip here in a few minutes.
00:02:29.740
I just want to make sure we're not going out there, calling all these guys dumb, stupid,
00:02:36.400
She's the spouse of one of our guys, ex-spouse of one of our guys.
00:02:50.000
Everything that happened, she's pushing the guy away from me.
00:02:53.760
So I said, let me ask you, when you were in school, were you an English person, literature
00:03:21.080
I watched this video that's talking about parenting.
00:03:24.300
I learned, whether we like it or not, people are born a certain way.
00:03:51.860
But somebody says, that's not fair to those people.
00:03:59.000
And typically, the that's not fair was to the people that are not working the hardest,
00:04:02.460
and they're just kind of wanting everything to be easy.
00:04:08.020
Believe it or not, we're trying to force these people to change.
00:04:11.340
They're emotionally more caught up by the feeling.
00:04:13.560
The question I got for you is, do you think the approach he's taking, Newsom, Vinny,
00:04:18.580
1,000% up June, 500% up August, 450% up activity on social media,
00:04:28.040
do you think this is going to work for him to be the leading candidate for 2028?
00:04:34.800
Because I called it that he's going to be the front runner for the 2028.
00:04:39.600
I know Tom's J.B. Pritzker with the money and I get that.
00:04:46.940
If you're just blind, loyal to the party, meaning, and you're right.
00:04:52.200
You're right about what, I don't think that they're all stupid.
00:04:55.360
What do you call a person that is just loyal to the party, but sees the crime, the border, the lying?
00:05:02.760
They know exactly who he is, but they're still going to vote for this guy because it's not the other side.
00:05:09.380
Instead of stupid, what do you call somebody that knows that the ship is sinking and they're still going to jump on the ship because the ship has their name on it, has their group's name?
00:05:21.840
And Tom, I'm going to come to you because there's a lot of other clips that, Rob, can you find a couple of the clips from Newsom?
00:05:27.640
The old mayor interview when he didn't want to talk about anything or, you know, there's a couple of clips I'll show you about Newsom that's just embarrassing.
00:05:51.360
Do you think there are people that if we get the worst Republican candidate ever, criminal, terrible guy, horrible human being, they're still going to vote Republican?
00:06:13.380
So people that are dyed in the wool that don't cross?
00:06:15.760
No matter what, they're going to vote Republican and no matter what, they're going to vote Democrat.
00:06:19.380
My understanding is that there's 24% on the GOP side and about 27% of the total voting on the Dem side that will stay red or blue no matter what.
00:06:37.120
The conclusion, I actually put it at 40-44, okay, give or take.
00:06:41.340
That's party affiliation, but you're asking me for the no matter what?
00:06:48.280
Party affiliation, 40 Republican no matter what, 44 Democrat no matter what, okay?
00:06:52.720
So when you look at these two things and you say, well, what's wrong with you?
00:06:59.080
I'm telling you, I'm going to show you this clip by this doctor that's going to break it down.
00:07:11.680
If you truly want to make change in the world, and it's taken me 46 years old, having worked
00:07:22.540
with so many different personalities, you're literally only dealing with 15 to 20% of people
00:07:33.060
Everybody else, it doesn't matter what you say, you're not changing them.
00:07:39.820
You know, the 40 and 44% that ever change on both sides, it's because someone offended
00:07:47.120
them, somebody from their party, their own party let them down.
00:07:50.060
Like if you're seeing right now, hardcore conservative, pro-Zionist, pro-Jewish, all of a sudden, hardcore
00:08:06.980
Death in the family, you know, betrayal, some kind of a letdown, some kind of a chaotic
00:08:14.340
So my focus has been trying to talk to the people in the middle that will sit there and
00:08:20.460
That's kind of, that really exactly what happened?
00:08:22.560
So to me, what I think with what Newsom is doing, this is the case study on how I'm looking
00:08:59.440
So watch the, within three seconds, watch what Newsom does and see if that reminds you of
00:09:07.880
Let me start by asking you, where have you been?
00:09:18.360
Hank, I'm here to talk about tomorrow, today and tomorrow.
00:09:24.460
I think I had 69 public events the last two and a half weeks.
00:09:27.240
You know, I heard you say that on the radio today, and then I asked your staff, well,
00:09:32.920
And your press person said, well, this is stuff he just goes to.
00:09:39.700
But look, you know the criticism that you have been dodging, not just the press, but also
00:09:44.320
the public, that you have been sulking after dropping out of the governor's race, that
00:09:52.240
I want to say that I've been working my tail off.
00:09:59.200
I think I was gone two days out of the city in the last three weeks.
00:10:04.420
I've been as engaged or more engaged than ever.
00:10:08.660
It is comical, some of the things that have been written.
00:10:11.340
So the cartoon in the Chronicle that depicted you as a crying baby with the headline, Mayor,
00:10:33.300
At the end, he couldn't leave the room fast enough.
00:10:40.480
I mean, amazingly, I just am, personally, you know?
00:10:46.080
Well, I did draw him out more about the question for asking questions, and you see what he says
00:10:51.400
He goes, just because you say off the record doesn't mean it's off the record, that I agree.
00:10:56.840
It just shows how long he's been doing this whole charade.
00:11:01.640
And so the question becomes, Rob, if you want to play this other clip, when you go through
00:11:06.280
these back to back to back, the question you ask is, is he still able to overcome this
00:11:14.620
I mean, there was a point that they talked about the debate where the guy who's debating
00:11:19.340
him, he says, listen, if his own best friend can't trust him with his wife, what makes you
00:11:30.560
Coming here in short notice, I want to make it clear that everything you've heard and
00:11:43.780
I've hurt someone I care deeply about, Alex Turk and his friends and family.
00:11:50.300
And that is something that I have to live with and something that I am deeply sorry for.
00:11:58.720
I am also sorry that I've let the people of San Francisco down.
00:12:05.760
I don't know if he's going to explain this to you or not.
00:12:08.220
It was him in 2005, he had an affair with Ruby Tippy Rourke, who was his best friend's
00:12:31.180
The question is very simple, ladies and gentlemen.
00:12:33.000
If you can't trust Gavin with his best friend's wife, how can you trust him with your
00:12:44.080
Oh, he slept with his best friend's wife, campaign manager.
00:12:48.140
I mean, there's so many things that we've heard about Gavin Newsom.
00:12:54.900
So Newsom had an affair with his secretary, Ruby Rippey Tork, the wife of his campaign
00:13:02.600
Newsom's campaign manager and former deputy chief of staff, Alex, resigned after confronting
00:13:07.120
Newsom over a sexual affair the mayor had with his wife in late 05.
00:13:23.440
He was a mayor of San Francisco that personally presided over a same-sex marriage that I believe
00:13:28.360
he officiated with a judge on the steps of City Hall.
00:13:36.900
So he goes from mayor to governor to recall winning again to now he'll be the leading
00:13:47.560
And the real question for me, the more I'm processing this from the business standpoint,
00:13:51.640
and I want to ask you guys and butcher the argument, I want to see what angles you're
00:13:57.100
So in California, it's not as if they're going to have a Republican beat him.
00:14:03.720
And the guy that was standing to his left in the debate, I think that was Mayor Villagorosa.
00:14:19.980
But the question becomes the same exact way where a lot of Republicans had given up on
00:14:27.180
Trump and they had said DeSantis is the one that's going to do it.
00:14:30.880
Because look at DeSantis, the way he did Florida, he did this, he was fighting, he was doing
00:14:36.180
Is this going to work across the country nationwide?
00:14:41.940
He just passed a gerrymandering that's going to be on the ballot on November 4th, which
00:14:45.720
is going to make the state be 48 to 4 House of Representatives on the Democratic side.
00:14:50.260
It's going to go from 43 to 9 Republicans to 48 to 4 Republicans.
00:14:54.420
It's a monopoly California is going to have, right?
00:14:56.620
Do you think the voters, not the 44 percent, not the 40 percent, do you think the middle
00:15:03.740
15, 16 percent is going to look at this guy and forget these moments?
00:15:08.580
Or do you think these greatest clips are going to run against him in ways that he's going
00:15:13.380
to be forced to disappear and never, ever run again?
00:15:16.400
How shameless is this guy that none of that stuff is going to affect him to become a president?
00:15:21.080
He's a completely shameless at a level that we haven't seen in politics in a long, long
00:15:31.440
He is getting the attention of Dems that are upset about the economy, upset about the way
00:15:37.040
immigration is being handled, upset about the tariffs.
00:15:39.980
They were scared about inflation, even though the facts didn't come true on it.
00:15:43.620
And so those people were upset and they love seeing a now a nationally visible Democrat fighting
00:15:53.860
And they love it that he's calling Trump names.
00:16:00.460
The second, we got to wait and look at the DNC.
00:16:04.100
Bernie was leading until South Carolina and the DNC said, we don't think Bernie's electable
00:16:25.160
Pritzker is the guy that's electable on a national scale.
00:16:29.380
And I'll tell you why you can ignore Gavin Newsom, because the DNC takes California's electoral
00:16:43.680
Pritzker here because what is surrounding Illinois?
00:16:47.700
Wisconsin, Michigan, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Cleveland.
00:16:52.540
And that's where the Dems need to have a resurgence of a visible candidate in those battleground
00:16:59.660
So I think the DNC is going to pull strings on it.
00:17:02.900
My third point is to your point about who we can move.
00:17:08.200
The first is there's an organization, and I'm not plugging them.
00:17:13.440
The Johnson O'Connor Research Institute have been, I believe, in San Diego, and they have
00:17:22.340
And they will tell you that what you just said a moment ago is true.
00:17:26.440
You have normal aptitudes that are with you when you're born.
00:17:30.660
And you can cultivate them over your life, or you can fight them.
00:17:37.460
You have a very creative son, but it's like, doggone it, I was a doctor.
00:17:51.600
And you have a creative son, not gay, just to say creative son, who's into architecture.
00:17:56.740
No, I'm saying that when I say creative, I'm not speaking of code.
00:17:58.920
Vinny doesn't have a gay son, folks, because he was looking at Vinny.
00:18:03.040
But you have a son that wants to be an architect.
00:18:05.540
And the rest of the family is fighting his aptitudes.
00:18:10.540
The last thing that I'll take you to, Rob, I need the Arizona chart on the voter.
00:18:17.440
There's been all this talk going on about, I just need the Arizona stats.
00:18:22.840
There's been all this talk about who's registering the most, who's not registering the both.
00:18:26.920
And to your point about the 15 in the middle, would you like to know what almost the largest party in Arizona is?
00:18:42.400
I think we found that earlier on one of the links.
00:18:46.500
Did you say 1.53 million is independents in Arizona?
00:18:51.780
Yeah, Amy and I covered this when we did Decision 2024 brought to you by Valuetainment.
00:19:01.680
But anyway, it is the independents are almost as large as the Republican registered in Arizona.
00:19:10.100
And that, you're exactly right, is where the battle is made.
00:19:29.800
Do you identify more right now as a Republican or a Democrat?
00:19:33.200
And with all the mayhem and things that have been going on in the spring here.
00:19:39.180
46 percent, no matter what, they still identify as Democrat.
00:19:44.540
And you can see the surge that happened, the shift in Q1.
00:19:53.400
And look at the surge as the people said, you know, I really feel more like Republican.
00:20:01.320
There is your 11 percent, which is closer to 15 percent, where you're exactly talking
00:20:06.460
a minute ago, where the battle is being fought.
00:20:10.320
So the question is, does Gavin Newsom have a chance?
00:20:14.200
Is he going to persuade that 10 to 15 percent that are just kind of on the fence, like,
00:20:19.440
well, I don't know where to, who's, what message?
00:20:22.540
Will Newsom, with this approach that he's taken, will this work on the national scale,
00:20:38.520
Don't forget, you know, we're a bunch of guys talking politics, talking current events,
00:20:45.400
You know, what we don't have on this stage right now, on this podcast, are females, are
00:20:51.380
And there's a story here about the political divide between young men and young women we
00:20:54.820
use as an example, young men, if you look at the stat, I don't know if you can show
00:20:59.280
this, Rob, you know, they're like, men are moving more to the right and women are moving
00:21:08.580
Men are actually just straight up in the middle.
00:21:17.460
So we tend to think of, well, you know, since Trump and since what's going on here, men
00:21:26.240
Right here, if you see the zero, that is the bottom line.
00:21:31.080
So if you're above zero, that means you're a little bit more liberal.
00:21:33.840
If you're below zero, you're a little more conservative.
00:21:46.500
So what we're creating in this country since basically 2000 are angry, liberal, single,
00:22:08.900
Women have gone not 10, not 20, not 30, 40% off the Richter scale.
00:22:15.680
So you asked the question, does Gavin Newsom have a chance?
00:22:31.140
So if you put up J.B. Pritzker's sloppiness against Gavin, women are going to pick Gavin.
00:22:54.080
And I think, and Pat, to your question about that 10 to 15%, I hope.
00:22:58.000
And that's why I think it's our job for podcasts like this and us to remind people who this person is.
00:23:08.300
So, and Pat, just FYI, Rob, do you play that clip, I think it was CNN, that the Democrats have a deficit of four, play this clip, 4.5 million voters.
00:23:17.920
In all 30 states that track party registration, we're putting on the screen the data.
00:23:22.700
It shows altogether Democrats have lost 2.1 million voters.
00:23:29.740
That's a deficit that you have of 4.5 million voters.
00:23:34.100
So, I'll apologize because I chose the wrong wording.
00:23:37.960
It's just this blind loyalty and not knowing the actual, like, history and what this person is doing.
00:23:44.160
I think it's a wake-up call to let these people know that 10 to 15, guys, this is who he is.
00:23:53.080
But what I'm, the angle I want to take is, where I'm going with this is, I've always,
00:23:58.200
if I've had a goal on who I want to track to listen, is the guy in the middle that is still thinking about which way should I go.
00:24:07.940
The guy that wants to be, that's fairly reasonable, that maybe was raised a Democrat, and is like,
00:24:15.200
let me tell you, some of this stuff just doesn't make sense to me, right?
00:24:20.300
Sometimes when you present the argument, the person listens to it, and then you're like, okay.
00:24:29.640
He says, what do you think is the number one quality of somebody becoming a president?
00:24:33.760
He said, I never thought about it that way before.
00:24:35.480
You have to be shameless to become a president.
00:24:39.540
Think about what you're most embarrassed about your mistakes the last 10 years, 20 years.
00:24:45.560
Are you comfortable with everybody around the world talking about that,
00:24:49.020
and you're still shameless enough to go out there and become a president?
00:24:57.840
I think Kamala was, you know, I think Joe Biden had it.
00:25:00.380
Believe it or not, Joe Biden, some of the stuff, you go back and look,
00:25:02.480
the guy was shameless as hell is what he was, okay?
00:25:10.540
She just didn't win because she had a terrible personality.
00:25:12.800
She wasn't attractive, but you need that quality.
00:25:14.860
We want to show you the campus, especially those of you guys that are going to the vault.
00:25:21.180
Rob's going to put the link here for you to go register.
00:25:23.120
If you bought a ticket, you get to bring a guest with you just to see the tour.
00:25:26.700
Some of you guys are going to be able to get on private jets and actually see what a private jet's like.
00:25:30.240
And some of you guys are going to see some exotic cars.
00:25:32.200
And I'm not just talking about some regular cars.
00:25:34.600
I'm talking about some very weird-looking cars that cost a couple million dollars.
00:25:39.420
That'll be this Wednesday if you haven't yet bought your ticket.
00:25:42.880
We are literally two weeks away from the vault conference.
00:25:45.880
This is when all of a sudden everybody starts buying a ticket saying,
00:25:50.740
I got to go, which is great, but this is causing tickets to sell out as well.
00:25:54.880
If you're somebody that hasn't yet purchased your ticket, go to thevaultconference.com,
00:26:05.260
We have a QR code for them to go there as well.
00:26:08.520
Generals will be able to network with around 400, 500 people.
00:26:12.000
Platinums and executives will get a tour by a couple of our associates.
00:26:15.700
Anybody that's got a founder or CEO ticket, I'm going to be giving you a tour of the entire facility.
00:26:21.640
We're going to have some hors d'oeuvres, some food.
00:26:23.640
You know, it's going to be some, you'll see stuff before a lot of other people will see it.
00:26:26.620
So, again, if you're in South Florida or surrounding,
00:26:28.660
