Verdict with Ted Cruz - GOP Gaining Midterm Momentum, Sen. Cruz Does A Deep Dive Into All The Major Races You Need To Watch!

00:00:00.000 This is an iHeart Podcast.

00:00:02.580 Guaranteed human.

00:00:04.340 We're just days away from the biggest midterm election

00:00:07.840 that we've had in a long time

00:00:09.560 when it comes to fighting for America.

00:00:12.020 Plus, the senator called out some people on The View,

00:00:15.060 including Hillary Clinton and Chelsea's fighting back. 0.67

00:00:18.180 And finally, what do you need to do

00:00:19.560 to get ready for election day?

00:00:21.160 And how are the races looking?

00:00:22.920 This is Verdict with Ted Cruz.

00:00:25.380 Senator, we're just days away from a midterm election.

00:00:28.020 You've been barnstorming the country.

00:00:30.140 Helping so many candidates.

00:00:32.020 And we're gonna talk about how to really look

00:00:34.260 at this Senate race and the House

00:00:36.220 and if we're gonna flip in a moment.

00:00:38.220 But there was something special that happened.

00:00:40.400 There is a video that has been put out

00:00:42.280 that is a montage of The View lying about your appearance

00:00:47.100 and Chelsea Clinton coming after you. 1.00

00:00:49.680 This had to make you laugh and smile a little bit

00:00:52.340 and see Chelsea Clinton try to rewrite history 1.00

00:00:54.000 and you got to bust her out.

00:00:55.500 Well, look, as we talked about earlier on the pod,

00:00:58.080 going on The View was amazing fun.

00:01:00.640 They're not used to anyone challenging them.

00:01:02.500 They're not used to anyone presenting anything

00:01:04.420 other than the hard left partisan propaganda.

00:01:07.220 And they kind of lost their mind.

00:01:08.780 And they couldn't let it go.

00:01:11.760 So even though we got into it a week ago,

00:01:14.540 the last few days, they had Chelsea Clinton on 1.00

00:01:16.700 and they asked her about what I had said

00:01:19.600 and in particular that Hillary Clinton had gone on their show

00:01:23.560 and it said that President Trump's election was illegitimate.

00:01:27.040 And they, well, watch what Chelsea said.

00:01:30.540 Take a look at this.

00:01:31.280 It's hysterical.

00:01:32.840 Senator Ted Cruz, who was here on the show,

00:01:35.220 when we pressed him on the MAGA Republicans' election denial,

00:01:39.320 he did whip out some sort of prop

00:01:40.920 and he argued that your mother did the same thing.

00:01:45.120 I do think that he knows that he's an illegitimate president.

00:01:51.140 What's your reaction to that?

00:01:51.720 That's funny, because I'm pretty sure that I remembered

00:01:53.640 that next day I was standing behind her when she conceded.

00:01:55.940 He's an illegitimate president.

00:01:58.280 And that she said while she had campaigned very hard

00:02:01.040 against President Trump,

00:02:02.620 she hoped that he would be a president for all Americans.

00:02:07.180 An illegitimate president.

00:02:08.300 You know, I think that Senator Cruz

00:02:09.540 just might have a slightly different memory of that.

00:02:12.800 I do think that he knows that he's an illegitimate president.

00:02:18.460 They sat here and said it was illegitimate

00:02:21.100 and you guys were fine with it.

00:02:22.620 But I do think that he knows that he's an illegitimate president.

00:02:29.440 And because of that...

00:02:31.360 The chairman of the January 6th committee

00:02:33.460 objected to a prior presidential election.

00:02:37.660 Representative Raskin, the lead prosecutor for the impeachment,

00:02:41.080 objected to a prior presidential election. 0.87

00:02:43.040 And the absolute hypocrisy...

00:02:45.720 Any time a Republican is in front of a TV camera

00:02:48.320 try to say the election was fair and square and legitimate.

00:02:51.500 You know who y'all don't do that to?

00:02:53.560 You don't do it to Hillary Clinton who stood up and said

00:02:56.040 Trump stole the election.

00:02:58.320 It's a fact.

00:02:59.080 There's the video.

00:03:00.040 I hope everyone will share this video.

00:03:02.160 Put it out on social media.

00:03:03.640 Share the podcast wherever you get your podcasts.

00:03:06.760 Please share this moment

00:03:07.900 because it's just a great example of where we are

00:03:10.620 not only with the media

00:03:11.520 but also with the Democratic Party.

00:03:13.460 They know they can go on these shows,

00:03:14.840 say whatever they want to say

00:03:16.000 and they will always give them cover

00:03:18.360 even if the lie was told on the same show.

00:03:21.040 Well, and look, it is interesting.

00:03:24.720 Chelsea was lying on behalf of her mother 1.00

00:03:28.420 and the media hosts were trying to help her.

00:03:31.820 So what I said was Hillary Clinton came on The View

00:03:35.720 and said Donald Trump's election was illegitimate.

00:03:39.500 And in fact, the hosts agreed with it.

00:03:41.640 Now mind you, when I said it last week,

00:03:43.620 Whoopi Goldberg immediately chimes in.

00:03:45.180 It was.

00:03:45.820 So they still think Trump's election was illegitimate.

00:03:48.600 They don't back away from it at all.

00:03:50.280 They're happy to embrace their double standard.

00:03:53.160 And what Chelsea answers a non sequitur 0.76

00:03:57.300 where she says,

00:03:57.920 Well, I was behind my mom when she gave a speech.

00:04:00.600 Okay.

00:04:01.340 I didn't say she gave a speech or didn't.

00:04:03.080 I said she went on The View

00:04:04.220 and said the election was illegitimate,

00:04:06.240 that he was an illegitimate president.

00:04:07.440 And it is a deliberate strategy of partisan Democrats

00:04:12.720 to say things that are just flat out false.

00:04:15.640 Why?

00:04:16.080 Because the fawning propagandists of the media will amplify it.

00:04:21.500 There is an objective answer, did Hillary Clinton say,

00:04:25.000 on The View to rapturous applause and happiness

00:04:30.820 from the left-wing hosts that Donald Trump was an illegitimate president.

00:04:34.580 There is an answer.

00:04:35.800 The answer is yes.

00:04:37.600 And no amount of spending can change that.

00:04:39.380 Even this week, it concerned me because we now know that apparently the FBI

00:04:42.900 is already looking into misinformation and disinformation

00:04:46.460 to affect the midterm elections.

00:04:48.260 It's almost like they're getting their game plan ready,

00:04:51.220 which is if we lose the House and we lose the Senate center,

00:04:55.260 that immediately it's the fault of some sort of propagandist,

00:04:58.260 Russia or whatever country they want to bring up now,

00:05:00.840 to say this wasn't a legitimate election

00:05:03.760 and we're going to undermine the victory of Republicans

00:05:05.860 and undermine the votes of every American

00:05:08.380 that clearly seem to be leaning towards we want to change.

00:05:11.660 I think that's exactly right.

00:05:14.640 They cannot accept election.

00:05:16.640 Democrats have challenged.

00:05:18.260 Every Republican presidential election since the year 2000.

00:05:22.160 That has been their pattern over and over again.

00:05:24.340 And Hillary's setting the stage. 1.00

00:05:26.180 When Democrats lose in 2022, they're going to say it's illegitimate.

00:05:29.500 When Democrats lose in 2024, they're going to say it's illegitimate.

00:05:32.660 And all throughout, they're going to say it's the Republicans

00:05:34.800 who are the election deniers.

00:05:36.120 We just think any time we lose, it's illegitimate.

00:05:38.060 I want to do a deep dive, and I'm calling an audible here

00:05:40.180 because I think you just mentioned something so important.

00:05:42.700 Is it the job of the DOJ, of the FBI,

00:05:46.220 to spend as much time as they are spending,

00:05:49.560 as they claim they're spending,

00:05:51.380 saying or claiming or looking into election interference

00:05:56.120 the way that they say that it's out there?

00:05:57.780 I mean, this has become an obsession.

00:05:59.500 I can't even imagine how much money they're spending on this.

00:06:02.620 We all know that foreign governments try to interfere in elections.

00:06:06.100 I think it's pretty clear right now the conversation we're having in America

00:06:08.920 is there's no third world country or a major country

00:06:11.960 that's influencing people's opinions right now.

00:06:14.280 How concerned are you that our actual government

00:06:16.880 is spending this much time involved in our elections?

00:06:20.520 Well, I'm concerned enough that I wrote a book

00:06:22.720 that came out this last week called

00:06:24.380 Justice Corrupted, How the Left Has Weaponized the Legal System.

00:06:27.700 And under Barack Obama, now under Joe Biden,

00:06:30.620 the DOJ and the FBI and the IRS and the CIA

00:06:34.720 and the alphabet soup of Washington

00:06:36.820 has turned into a partisan weapon for the Democrats.

00:06:41.360 Look, in the 2000 election,

00:06:43.040 we saw senior officials for the FBI

00:06:45.600 go to Facebook

00:06:47.080 and ask them

00:06:48.940 to pull down

00:06:50.900 the Hunter Biden laptop story.

00:06:53.480 The Hunter Biden laptop story,

00:06:55.100 which not only wasn't misinformation,

00:06:57.020 we now know was true.

00:06:58.060 So it was literally, they were political emissaries.

00:07:01.180 Now, it is a special category of information online

00:07:05.460 that big tech historically has deeply disfavored.

00:07:08.900 It's what I call true, but bad for Democrats.

00:07:12.380 And true, but bad for Democrats

00:07:14.040 is their favorite category of, quote,

00:07:16.340 misinformation to suppress.

00:07:19.400 And in that instance,

00:07:20.740 you literally had the FBI,

00:07:23.180 mind you, the FBI,

00:07:25.040 while Trump was president,

00:07:26.060 so it's the deep state,

00:07:27.120 it's the career,

00:07:28.860 senior career positions

00:07:31.400 that have been infested

00:07:33.620 with hard, vicious partisans

00:07:36.180 who viewed their job,

00:07:37.720 we must take down

00:07:39.000 the elected president of the United States

00:07:40.600 because we disagree with him.

00:07:41.900 And it's our job to topple the president.

00:07:43.860 And big tech was more than happy

00:07:45.460 to salute and say,

00:07:47.640 not only will we take the content down,

00:07:49.340 we will punish any media outlet

00:07:50.880 that reports on it.

00:07:53.340 I mean, that's the amazing thing

00:07:55.380 is the traditional media outlets

00:07:58.180 have completely handed their spines

00:08:01.680 to big tech.

00:08:03.440 Big tech now controls

00:08:04.720 on the Hunter Biden laptop.

00:08:06.440 Big tech said,

00:08:07.240 we will ban you if you report on it.

00:08:09.200 And all of the supposed,

00:08:10.900 you know,

00:08:11.160 the Woodward and Bernsteins of the world,

00:08:12.820 they are now just

00:08:15.520 minor little employees

00:08:17.020 for Silicon Valley billionaires.

00:08:19.400 And if you actually care about journalism,

00:08:22.560 that ought to trouble you deeply.

00:08:23.780 But the left doesn't care about journalism.

00:08:26.320 No, they don't.

00:08:26.940 And I think it's very clear

00:08:27.920 heading into the midterms

00:08:29.000 how much water

00:08:30.060 they're willing to carry

00:08:30.760 for Democrats,

00:08:31.420 hoping that they can somehow

00:08:32.960 pull out some victories

00:08:34.480 in some seats

00:08:35.580 that they're desperate

00:08:36.300 to hold on to

00:08:37.020 so they don't lose

00:08:37.600 total control of the House

00:08:38.780 as well as the Senate

00:08:40.080 at the same time.

00:08:40.720 And I want to get into

00:08:41.760 how you watch election night

00:08:43.680 and what are the most important races

00:08:45.520 right now

00:08:45.940 as we're about a week out.

00:08:46.980 But before we do that,

00:08:48.200 I want to tell you

00:08:49.020 about our sponsor,

00:08:50.120 Patriot Mobile.

00:08:50.900 If you have a cell phone,

00:08:53.220 you are going to save money

00:08:54.800 with Patriot Mobile

00:08:55.620 on top of the fact

00:08:56.960 that every bill you pay,

00:08:58.520 they take a portion of your bill

00:09:00.120 at no extra cost to you

00:09:01.720 and they support conservative causes

00:09:04.220 and candidates around the country.

00:09:06.700 They stand up for our First

00:09:08.120 and our Second Amendment rights.

00:09:09.540 They stand up for the rights

00:09:10.700 of the unborn

00:09:11.640 and they even help

00:09:13.060 when it comes to adoption

00:09:14.440 now in this country

00:09:15.640 since the overturning

00:09:16.760 of Roe v. Wade.

00:09:18.300 They also use the same cell towers

00:09:20.540 that you're on right now

00:09:21.980 with your cell phone.

00:09:22.920 So imagine,

00:09:26.600 you know you're standing up

00:09:27.660 for what you believe in.

00:09:29.040 If you're ready to stand

00:09:30.200 with companies

00:09:30.700 that stand with your beliefs,

00:10:03.900 Senator,

00:10:04.100 I want to get into the midterms

00:10:06.380 and there is a real concern now

00:10:09.420 that we might not be able

00:10:11.540 to grab the Senate.

00:10:12.620 I think there's some confidence

00:10:14.000 that we are going to be able

00:10:15.080 to grab the House.

00:10:17.220 Let's start with your prediction

00:10:18.640 on the Senate

00:10:19.220 and what are the races

00:10:20.400 that people really need

00:10:21.380 to be focusing on?

00:10:22.580 Yeah, so I am very confident

00:10:24.200 about this election.

00:10:25.180 I think it's going to be

00:10:25.640 a really good election.

00:10:26.820 In the House,

00:10:27.740 I think we're going to get

00:10:28.760 a majority

00:10:30.100 and I think even potentially

00:10:31.600 a big majority,

00:10:32.440 a majority that could be

00:10:33.300 30, 40, 50 seats.

00:10:34.460 We'll talk about the House

00:10:35.220 in a minute.

00:10:36.180 Let's talk about the Senate.

00:10:37.820 I think we'll take the Senate

00:10:39.000 and I think we'll get

00:10:40.040 either 53 or 54 seats

00:10:41.860 in the Senate.

00:10:42.600 Now that's gone up

00:10:43.440 since just a couple weeks ago.

00:10:44.960 I was 53.

00:10:46.460 I've moved it,

00:10:47.580 I'd say, up 53 or 54.

00:10:49.580 I'm probably 53 and a half

00:10:50.900 is where I'd put it right now.

00:10:52.540 And let me walk you through

00:10:53.620 because these races

00:10:55.180 are specific

00:10:55.920 and most of these candidates

00:10:57.660 I've been on the ground

00:10:59.380 in the middle of our

00:11:00.000 17 state national bus tour

00:11:01.400 so I've been campaigning

00:11:02.340 in almost all these states.

00:11:04.560 Let's break it

00:11:05.860 into three categories.

00:11:07.320 Let's start with

00:11:07.980 pickup opportunities.

00:11:09.680 Then let's start

00:11:10.560 with defense.

00:11:11.980 And finally,

00:11:12.560 I want to throw out

00:11:13.120 a couple of wild cards.

00:11:15.240 Pickup.

00:11:15.940 We have really

00:11:16.740 six credible

00:11:18.160 pickup opportunities.

00:11:20.480 Nevada is the number one

00:11:21.760 pickup opportunity

00:11:22.500 in the country.

00:11:23.020 I think we're going

00:11:23.480 to win Nevada.

00:11:24.880 Adam Laxalt is the nominee.

00:11:26.600 Adam was the attorney general.

00:11:27.780 Adam is a good friend.

00:11:28.780 Adam is a conservative.

00:11:29.620 He's running against

00:11:30.940 Catherine Cortez Masto.

00:11:32.340 Nevada is historically

00:11:33.860 a purple state.

00:11:36.180 Polling in that race

00:11:37.300 has pretty consistently

00:11:38.380 shown Laxalt up

00:11:40.620 three to four points.

00:11:42.280 Not overwhelming,

00:11:43.260 but it's been pretty consistent.

00:11:44.980 Cortez Masto is vulnerable.

00:11:46.560 She votes with Joe Biden

00:11:47.620 almost 100% of the time.

00:11:49.540 She does not have

00:11:50.180 much of a presence

00:11:50.840 in the state.

00:11:52.360 I think Nevada is...

00:11:53.660 And Laxalt is also

00:11:55.540 a really good candidate.

00:11:56.500 And I do think

00:11:57.140 candidate discipline matters.

00:11:59.240 Having someone

00:11:59.900 who knows how

00:12:00.400 to run a campaign,

00:12:01.360 knows how to 1.00

00:12:01.900 not say stupid things 1.00

00:12:03.300 and blow themselves up, 1.00

00:12:04.340 that matters.

00:12:05.100 I think Adam is...

00:12:05.820 Staying on message

00:12:06.320 an amazing job

00:12:07.420 of staying on message

00:12:08.100 in that race.

00:12:09.100 Adam has also done

00:12:10.200 a really good job

00:12:11.580 of unifying

00:12:12.560 the hardcore

00:12:14.360 Trump supporters

00:12:15.200 in the state

00:12:15.820 and the Republicans

00:12:17.180 who are not as keen

00:12:18.480 about Donald Trump.

00:12:19.280 And that's just

00:12:19.820 a difficult dynamic

00:12:20.820 for any candidate running

00:12:22.100 because you've got

00:12:23.140 different slices

00:12:23.940 of Republicans

00:12:25.040 and to get to 50

00:12:26.680 you usually need

00:12:27.460 to get them all together.

00:12:28.420 Adam's done a good job

00:12:29.660 of bridging that

00:12:30.640 without causing

00:12:32.860 any internal battles.

00:12:34.460 So I think Nevada

00:12:34.960 is the number one

00:12:35.580 pickup opportunity

00:12:36.260 in the country.

00:12:36.780 I think the number two

00:12:37.380 pickup opportunity

00:12:38.080 in the country

00:12:38.580 is Georgia.

00:12:40.880 Georgia,

00:12:41.560 Herschel Walker

00:12:42.260 is running against

00:12:43.480 Raphael Warnock.

00:12:45.080 Look, Walker has...

00:12:46.460 The reverend.

00:12:46.840 Don't forget the reverend.

00:12:47.960 The guy that makes

00:12:48.460 more money being a reverend

00:12:49.420 at church he doesn't

00:12:50.120 really go to very often

00:12:51.200 than he does

00:12:51.640 in the U.S. Senate.

00:12:52.280 You know, it is...

00:12:54.600 I was just with Herschel

00:12:55.980 a couple days ago.

00:12:57.500 We did a couple

00:12:58.440 of big rallies

00:12:59.380 on the ground

00:13:00.040 in Georgia.

00:13:00.740 I was really encouraged.

00:13:02.040 The rallies,

00:13:02.760 we had huge crowds.

00:13:04.920 Incredible enthusiasm.

00:13:06.460 I was talking to Herschel.

00:13:07.660 He and I grabbed

00:13:08.260 some barbecue for lunch

00:13:09.380 and we were talking

00:13:10.920 about how

00:13:11.640 the crowds

00:13:13.460 are markedly different

00:13:16.120 from what the Georgia

00:13:16.940 crowds were

00:13:17.740 in the runoff

00:13:18.820 two years ago.

00:13:19.560 So I was there

00:13:20.280 campaigning

00:13:20.960 for Purdue and Loeffler.

00:13:22.800 Yeah.

00:13:23.440 And I have to admit

00:13:24.260 the results

00:13:24.760 didn't surprise me

00:13:25.600 because you could see

00:13:26.760 when you were there.

00:13:28.120 You could feel it.

00:13:29.060 They were demoralized.

00:13:30.560 They were pissed.

00:13:31.760 They were depressed.

00:13:35.160 You'd show up

00:13:35.980 with a Senate candidate

00:13:36.840 in Georgia

00:13:38.000 and the activists

00:13:39.120 are yelling at them

00:13:40.100 like they were angry

00:13:41.520 and listen,

00:13:43.740 it is a reality.

00:13:44.620 If your voters

00:13:45.060 stay home,

00:13:45.680 you lose elections

00:13:46.620 and in that Georgia runoff,

00:13:48.160 Republicans stay home.

00:13:50.920 It's night and day.

00:13:52.240 The energy

00:13:52.980 and enthusiasm

00:13:53.860 and listen,

00:13:54.700 Herschel,

00:13:56.060 Herschel's a rock star.

00:13:57.400 I gotta say also

00:13:57.980 I campaigned with Herschel

00:13:59.380 a couple of months ago.

00:14:01.040 The difference

00:14:01.500 between a couple of months ago

00:14:02.600 and now,

00:14:04.100 Herschel was on fire.

00:14:05.540 I was really impressed.

00:14:07.160 He's gotten,

00:14:07.980 he's never run stride.

00:14:09.700 You know,

00:14:09.940 part of it is

00:14:10.560 I think Warnock

00:14:11.140 pissed him off

00:14:11.860 because it's gotten

00:14:13.340 so nasty.

00:14:14.560 It's gotten so personal.

00:14:15.840 They've gone after him.

00:14:16.800 They've gone after his family.

00:14:18.700 Um,

00:14:20.020 I think Herschel

00:14:20.780 has responded.

00:14:21.680 He's gotten angry.

00:14:22.600 He's standing up.

00:14:23.260 I think he

00:14:23.780 went after and debated

00:14:25.540 Warnock effectively.

00:14:27.600 Warnock came in.

00:14:28.820 Warnock may be

00:14:30.100 the,

00:14:30.500 the candidate

00:14:31.260 with the greatest

00:14:32.620 divergence

00:14:34.220 between his voting record

00:14:35.740 and the voters

00:14:36.440 of that state.

00:14:37.100 I think Georgia

00:14:37.640 is a fundamentally red state.

00:14:39.180 Yeah.

00:14:39.600 And Warnock

00:14:40.520 is a hardcore leftist.

00:14:42.220 He's one of the most

00:14:43.080 liberal Democrats

00:14:43.760 in the Senate.

00:14:45.420 At the end of the day,

00:14:46.720 that divergence

00:14:47.500 is significant

00:14:48.700 and I think

00:14:49.680 Walker wins.

00:14:51.160 The question

00:14:51.940 is going to be

00:14:53.480 does Walker

00:14:53.960 break 50%?

00:14:55.580 Because we could

00:14:56.580 see an outcome.

00:14:57.420 There's a third party

00:14:58.140 candidate.

00:14:58.700 We could see an outcome

00:15:00.060 where Walker wins

00:15:01.920 and say has 49%

00:15:03.560 and Warnock

00:15:05.640 has 47%

00:15:07.220 which sends us

00:15:08.920 to another runoff.

00:15:09.760 And so one possible

00:15:11.400 outcome that nobody

00:15:12.340 wants to see

00:15:12.960 is another Georgia 0.97

00:15:13.720 runoff that could 0.64

00:15:14.580 conceivably decide

00:15:15.660 control of the Senate.

00:15:16.980 I hope that doesn't

00:15:17.880 happen.

00:15:18.960 It is not certain

00:15:20.520 whether Herschel

00:15:21.300 will break 50

00:15:22.120 this time around.

00:15:23.060 I'd really like him

00:15:23.840 to break 50

00:15:24.460 and just be done

00:15:25.140 with it.

00:15:25.740 Sure.

00:15:26.080 That's the second

00:15:26.780 best pick-up opportunity.

00:15:28.620 The next tier

00:15:30.020 is two other races

00:15:31.060 and that's Arizona

00:15:32.260 and New Hampshire.

00:15:34.060 Arizona is Blake Masters.

00:15:35.540 He's running

00:15:35.820 against Mark Kelly.

00:15:36.680 Mark Kelly

00:15:40.160 is a very effective

00:15:41.200 candidate.

00:15:41.880 He's a Navy veteran.

00:15:43.440 He's an astronaut.

00:15:44.960 You know,

00:15:45.240 he looks like

00:15:46.360 Captain America

00:15:47.380 and his campaign ads,

00:15:50.460 he might as well

00:15:51.180 be Donald Trump.

00:15:52.000 He's running

00:15:52.580 as a conservative.

00:15:53.800 Mark Kelly

00:15:54.720 secures the border.

00:15:56.220 Now mind you,

00:15:57.140 every single time,

00:15:58.300 100% without exception,

00:16:00.220 when it comes to a vote,

00:16:01.240 Mark Kelly votes

00:16:01.900 for open borders.

00:16:03.620 Like,

00:16:03.800 it is the most,

00:16:04.800 but if you watch...

00:16:05.920 It's the most bizarre thing

00:16:06.480 you've seen

00:16:06.860 and I gotta give credit

00:16:08.060 to his campaign,

00:16:08.840 his political campaign.

00:16:09.800 They figured out

00:16:10.800 what the people

00:16:11.400 wanted to hear

00:16:12.220 and they have a candidate

00:16:13.820 that's effective

00:16:14.440 at telling you

00:16:15.140 that that's who he is

00:16:16.140 even though that's not

00:16:17.020 what his voting record

00:16:17.980 actually is at all.

00:16:19.220 Yep.

00:16:19.720 Well,

00:16:19.940 that was something

00:16:20.460 that Herschel and I

00:16:21.840 were talking about

00:16:22.560 when I was campaigning

00:16:23.320 with him,

00:16:24.180 which is that

00:16:25.340 Democrats win

00:16:26.660 when they lie effectively.

00:16:28.940 Republicans win

00:16:29.680 when we tell the truth

00:16:30.600 effectively.

00:16:32.920 Because

00:16:33.400 the policy views

00:16:35.460 of Democrats

00:16:36.020 are wildly

00:16:36.920 out of step

00:16:37.460 with the voters.

00:16:38.620 So the Democrats

00:16:39.340 that are really

00:16:39.880 effective campaigners

00:16:40.920 are the ones

00:16:41.380 that pretend

00:16:41.840 they don't believe

00:16:42.480 what they actually believe.

00:16:43.620 Sure.

00:16:44.020 On the other hand,

00:16:44.940 Republicans win

00:16:45.780 when we effectively

00:16:46.840 cut through the media lies

00:16:48.280 and explain what it is

00:16:50.100 that we in fact believe.

00:16:51.800 Look,

00:16:52.060 Blake Masters,

00:16:52.760 he went through

00:16:53.420 a really rough primary

00:16:54.480 and then came out

00:16:58.820 of the primary

00:16:59.280 with no money.

00:17:00.660 And so a month ago,

00:17:01.860 Blake was down

00:17:02.840 probably 8,

00:17:03.940 10 points.

00:17:05.140 And there were

00:17:05.920 some national Republicans

00:17:07.060 who were writing

00:17:07.720 the race off

00:17:08.400 and saying it can't

00:17:09.080 be won.

00:17:10.260 The recent polling

00:17:11.480 that we have

00:17:12.160 shows the race

00:17:12.800 effectively tied.

00:17:14.560 Now,

00:17:14.780 Mark Kelly has

00:17:15.520 unlimited cash

00:17:16.780 and he spent,

00:17:17.600 I think,

00:17:17.760 over $60 million

00:17:18.700 hammering Blake

00:17:20.540 and claiming

00:17:21.940 to be someone

00:17:22.520 he's not.

00:17:23.660 I think Blake

00:17:24.400 has a real good shot

00:17:25.200 at winning that race

00:17:26.080 and I've campaigned there,

00:17:28.340 did a big rally with him.

00:17:30.400 One of the reasons

00:17:31.560 that I think Blake

00:17:33.100 is more likely

00:17:34.700 than not

00:17:35.240 to win that race

00:17:36.220 is Carrie Lake

00:17:38.180 is going to win governor.

00:17:39.580 And that's actually

00:17:40.140 one of the reasons

00:17:40.600 I think Herschel's

00:17:41.300 going to win.

00:17:41.720 In both of those states,

00:17:43.640 you've got Kemp

00:17:44.660 is going to win

00:17:45.480 in Georgia.

00:17:46.800 He could win

00:17:47.640 8, 9, 10 points.

00:17:49.480 If that happens,

00:17:50.780 I have a hard time

00:17:53.360 envisioning

00:17:54.060 who is the Georgia

00:17:54.800 voter who goes in

00:17:55.820 and votes for Kemp

00:17:57.600 and Raphael Warnock.

00:17:58.820 Yeah, I would say that

00:17:59.560 and there's two

00:18:00.320 totally polar

00:18:01.400 opposite candidates

00:18:02.460 at the same time

00:18:03.340 and you have a hard time

00:18:04.680 imagining that you

00:18:05.500 would actually be

00:18:06.440 that deliberate

00:18:07.240 and say,

00:18:07.840 Republican here

00:18:08.980 for governor,

00:18:10.100 liberal,

00:18:11.100 liberal,

00:18:11.740 hardcore Democrat

00:18:12.880 for Senate.

00:18:13.580 You know,

00:18:13.780 guys praise

00:18:14.380 Fidel Castro.

00:18:15.340 I mean,

00:18:15.620 that hardcore

00:18:16.920 socialist.

00:18:17.780 There is some

00:18:20.400 risk in Georgia.

00:18:21.500 There will be

00:18:21.940 some voters

00:18:22.540 who vote for Kemp

00:18:23.400 and don't vote

00:18:24.140 in Senate.

00:18:24.940 Yeah,

00:18:25.300 that's possible.

00:18:27.340 If Kemp is winning

00:18:28.440 8, 9, 10 points,

00:18:29.460 I just don't believe

00:18:30.240 it's going to be

00:18:30.700 8, 9, 10 points

00:18:31.520 of the electorate.

00:18:32.700 Same thing in Arizona.

00:18:34.100 Carrie Lake

00:18:34.520 is a really strong

00:18:35.300 candidate.

00:18:35.840 She's turned into

00:18:36.540 a rock star.

00:18:37.220 You've been around

00:18:37.820 her.

00:18:37.980 You've spent time

00:18:38.620 with her.

00:18:39.640 I think she's

00:18:40.500 one of those candidates

00:18:41.400 that you say,

00:18:42.220 oh,

00:18:43.060 like not just

00:18:43.780 oh as a governor,

00:18:44.940 like oh,

00:18:45.740 like this could be

00:18:46.880 a new voice

00:18:47.480 in the conservative

00:18:48.100 movement.

00:18:48.620 Yeah,

00:18:48.760 she is already 0.67

00:18:49.400 a star.

00:18:50.020 When she wins,

00:18:50.580 she's going to be

00:18:50.980 a bigger star.

00:18:52.000 I did a big rally

00:18:53.060 with both her

00:18:53.780 and Blake.

00:18:54.660 She's very impressive.

00:18:56.700 The polling there

00:18:58.060 shows her pretty 0.84

00:18:58.960 consistently up

00:19:00.000 about 4 to 5 points.

00:19:01.840 I think if Lake

00:19:02.720 wins by 5 points,

00:19:04.140 Blake wins also.

00:19:05.560 If Lake only wins

00:19:06.800 by 2 or 3 points,

00:19:08.500 Blake could lose

00:19:09.200 that race,

00:19:09.720 so it depends

00:19:10.280 on movement.

00:19:11.460 But Arizona's

00:19:12.320 a very winnable race.

00:19:13.300 The next state

00:19:15.600 that we have

00:19:16.020 a decent shot at

00:19:16.960 is New Hampshire.

00:19:18.520 New Hampshire,

00:19:19.380 the Republican nominee

00:19:20.140 is General Don Baldock.

00:19:22.020 He was a retired general,

00:19:24.660 served 30 plus years

00:19:26.180 in the military.

00:19:28.360 New Hampshire

00:19:29.280 is a purple state.

00:19:31.340 The incumbent Democrat,

00:19:32.760 Maggie Hassan,

00:19:34.020 I think is quite vulnerable.

00:19:38.700 Her approval rating

00:19:40.300 is consistently below 50%.

00:19:42.300 Joe Biden's approval rating

00:19:43.540 in the state

00:19:44.060 is terrible.

00:19:45.860 I think it's in the 30s.

00:19:46.980 I was going to say

00:19:47.320 it was in the 30s

00:19:47.880 last week

00:19:48.260 when I was looking

00:19:48.680 at that race.

00:19:50.660 Baldock doesn't have

00:19:51.500 much money

00:19:51.980 and the national Republicans

00:19:54.040 haven't been putting

00:19:54.800 a whole lot of money

00:19:55.500 into it.

00:19:56.460 Both Arizona

00:19:57.260 and New Hampshire

00:19:57.900 have been on the short

00:19:59.080 end of the stick

00:19:59.840 with battles

00:20:01.320 with Mitch McConnell

00:20:02.580 and his super PAC

00:20:04.080 and not sure

00:20:05.240 whether they're going

00:20:05.820 to invest or not.

00:20:07.080 And so,

00:20:07.860 you know,

00:20:09.260 our number three

00:20:09.980 and number four

00:20:10.620 pick up opportunity,

00:20:11.580 we're sending

00:20:12.660 our candidates

00:20:13.380 into fights

00:20:14.460 where they're being

00:20:15.840 outspent

00:20:16.460 three to one,

00:20:17.440 five to one,

00:20:18.260 ten to one.

00:20:19.000 The money differential

00:20:19.960 is massive.

00:20:21.780 But I think

00:20:22.640 Baldock could be 0.99

00:20:23.440 one of the real

00:20:24.320 surprises

00:20:25.160 on election night

00:20:26.360 because he has not

00:20:27.920 been given

00:20:28.300 the resources

00:20:28.940 frankly needed

00:20:29.880 to make that state

00:20:30.820 fully competitive.

00:20:32.120 But I think

00:20:32.840 it would not surprise

00:20:34.060 me at all

00:20:34.700 to see General Baldock

00:20:36.420 win that race

00:20:37.320 despite not having

00:20:39.140 the reinforcements

00:20:39.900 he needed.

00:20:40.340 When you see

00:20:40.920 that,

00:20:41.160 there's a lot

00:20:41.440 of people

00:20:41.640 that are going

00:20:41.900 to be listening

00:20:42.840 and watching

00:20:43.440 and they're going

00:20:44.000 to say,

00:20:44.540 there we go again,

00:20:45.360 the Republican,

00:20:46.220 you know, 0.83

00:20:46.780 leadership screwing

00:20:47.900 this up.

00:20:48.680 How frustrating

00:20:49.440 is it when you

00:20:50.100 see opportunities

00:20:50.700 like this,

00:20:51.240 New Hampshire

00:20:51.600 being a sleeper race 1.00

00:20:52.580 and having these,

00:20:54.620 you know,

00:20:55.020 kingmakers,

00:20:55.780 as I call them,

00:20:56.360 like,

00:20:56.520 nope,

00:20:56.760 we've already said

00:20:57.460 that one's impossible

00:20:58.300 to come back from.

00:20:59.540 It's going to go

00:21:00.220 to the Democrats.

00:21:01.120 We're moving on

00:21:01.820 to these other races

00:21:02.620 when in reality

00:21:03.480 they should have

00:21:04.160 invested there early on.

00:21:06.000 Well,

00:21:06.220 there's a reason

00:21:06.840 for that,

00:21:07.400 which is the single

00:21:08.260 largest funder

00:21:09.220 of Republican Senate

00:21:10.140 candidates

00:21:10.620 is Mitch McConnell's

00:21:12.000 super PAC.

00:21:13.700 Mitch puts all

00:21:14.780 of his money

00:21:15.240 behind moderates

00:21:16.000 and incumbents

00:21:16.600 and conservatives

00:21:17.720 get left alone.

00:21:19.560 Conservatives get

00:21:20.180 starved for resources

00:21:21.120 and Republican donors

00:21:22.740 give to that super PAC

00:21:24.360 knowing that that's

00:21:25.300 not going to go

00:21:25.840 to conservatives

00:21:26.400 and right now

00:21:27.260 I'm trying to fill

00:21:28.680 that void in House races

00:21:29.880 and in House races

00:21:31.160 I'm backing conservatives

00:21:32.440 because Republican leadership

00:21:33.640 does the same thing.

00:21:34.880 They back moderates,

00:21:36.160 they don't back

00:21:36.980 conservatives

00:21:37.540 with anywhere near

00:21:38.540 the same financial resources

00:21:39.900 and so,

00:21:41.040 look,

00:21:41.400 part of the reason

00:21:42.120 why Arizona

00:21:43.240 and New Hampshire

00:21:44.160 are not getting

00:21:44.660 the funding

00:21:45.100 that they deserve

00:21:46.040 is that

00:21:47.880 both of those candidates

00:21:49.740 are strongly aligned

00:21:50.980 with Donald Trump

00:21:51.720 and Republican leadership

00:21:53.740 doesn't like that.

00:21:55.160 My view is

00:21:55.840 I want to win

00:21:56.540 and have a majority

00:21:57.280 of strong conservatives

00:21:58.300 and I think

00:22:01.720 it was a mistake

00:22:02.580 not to invest

00:22:03.540 more vigorously

00:22:04.580 in both Arizona

00:22:06.900 and New Hampshire.

00:22:08.320 Look,

00:22:08.460 Arizona,

00:22:09.100 you had an added

00:22:09.700 complication

00:22:10.880 in that

00:22:11.760 Blake Masters'

00:22:13.600 main financial donors,

00:22:15.480 Peter Thiel,

00:22:16.140 someone I know

00:22:16.660 very, very well,

00:22:18.460 Peter and Mitch McConnell

00:22:20.320 were each looking

00:22:21.060 at each other

00:22:21.540 going,

00:22:21.880 you fund the race,

00:22:22.620 no,

00:22:22.800 you fund the race

00:22:23.560 and for a long time

00:22:26.060 they left Blake

00:22:26.740 out there

00:22:27.340 gasping for air.

00:22:29.140 I talked to all three of them.

00:22:30.200 at that point, right?

00:22:30.960 I'm like,

00:22:31.340 I don't care who funds

00:22:32.220 the race,

00:22:32.640 but somebody fund 1.00

00:22:33.480 the damn race 0.99

00:22:34.080 because let's not 1.00

00:22:34.720 give away a win.

00:22:36.740 I think we could end up

00:22:37.860 winning both those states

00:22:38.820 anyway,

00:22:39.340 but there needs to be

00:22:40.180 a serious discussion

00:22:41.720 about how to ensure

00:22:44.040 that strong conservative

00:22:45.460 candidates actually have

00:22:47.220 the funds

00:22:48.160 to communicate

00:22:48.700 our messages.

00:22:49.860 All right,

00:22:50.220 two more pickup opportunities

00:22:51.520 that are long shots,

00:22:52.620 but not impossible.

00:22:55.300 Colorado

00:22:55.820 and Washington State.

00:22:58.860 Colorado has also

00:23:00.020 been a purple to blue state,

00:23:01.520 but in a good year

00:23:03.140 a Republican can win

00:23:04.440 in Colorado.

00:23:05.140 Cory Gardner in 2014

00:23:06.380 was elected in Colorado.

00:23:10.140 Joe O'Day,

00:23:11.200 who's running,

00:23:11.860 I think is a good candidate.

00:23:13.940 I think Michael Bennett,

00:23:15.260 the incumbent,

00:23:16.440 is very vulnerable.

00:23:18.580 He's done nothing

00:23:19.360 in his entire time

00:23:20.300 in the Senate.

00:23:20.780 He is an empty suit.

00:23:23.080 He is not well-known

00:23:24.140 in the state.

00:23:26.580 Colorado has gotten

00:23:27.720 bumpier

00:23:28.300 because O'Day and Trump

00:23:29.800 are in a pissing match.

00:23:31.800 And it,

00:23:32.440 you know,

00:23:34.480 it makes you want

00:23:35.180 to just jump out

00:23:36.500 a window. 0.59

00:23:39.720 O'Day foolishly

00:23:41.180 went on a Sunday show

00:23:42.260 and when asked

00:23:43.440 about 2024,

00:23:44.680 said,

00:23:44.940 no,

00:23:45.120 Trump shouldn't run

00:23:46.000 and I will oppose him

00:23:46.900 if he does.

00:23:47.360 Now,

00:23:49.340 you might say,

00:23:50.120 okay,

00:23:50.580 if you're trying

00:23:51.340 to appeal

00:23:51.940 to moderate,

00:23:52.740 independent,

00:23:53.440 squishy Colorado voters,

00:23:55.000 I understand

00:23:55.700 why you would say that.

00:23:58.020 Still a bad move.

00:23:59.500 Well,

00:23:59.900 and it's a bad move

00:24:00.940 because if you understand

00:24:02.520 the universe

00:24:03.080 in which we live,

00:24:05.280 Donald Trump

00:24:06.160 reacts to things

00:24:07.200 like that.

00:24:08.420 And so Trump,

00:24:09.240 I think the next day,

00:24:10.100 immediately came out

00:24:11.040 blasting O'Day

00:24:12.140 and telling Republicans,

00:24:13.580 don't vote for the guy.

00:24:14.460 And you're just

00:24:16.060 sitting there going,

00:24:17.120 okay,

00:24:17.440 great,

00:24:17.760 so we're going

00:24:18.120 to elect the Democrat

00:24:19.180 who votes

00:24:20.760 pretty much 100%

00:24:22.220 of the time

00:24:22.800 with Schumer

00:24:23.300 and Biden.

00:24:27.200 You know,

00:24:27.560 O'Day

00:24:28.040 would not be

00:24:29.780 conservative in Texas.

00:24:31.760 But in Colorado,

00:24:32.860 it'd be a great pickup.

00:24:34.300 In Colorado,

00:24:35.080 I want people

00:24:36.100 to vote for Joe O'Day

00:24:37.180 because I want

00:24:38.280 Chuck Schumer

00:24:38.820 out of power.

00:24:41.400 I wish O'Day 1.00

00:24:42.760 had had the judgment

00:24:43.820 just not to poke

00:24:44.780 the bear.

00:24:45.300 Just don't,

00:24:46.320 don't piss off Trump

00:24:49.340 because the races

00:24:51.120 we lose

00:24:52.020 are races

00:24:52.760 where there's

00:24:53.300 a pissing match

00:24:54.220 between the Republican

00:24:55.180 candidate and Trump.

00:24:56.600 It's a self-inflicted

00:24:57.380 wound almost every time

00:24:58.480 when you look at this

00:24:59.200 map at this point.

00:25:00.180 And do I wish

00:25:01.360 Trump would exercise

00:25:03.440 the restraint

00:25:04.260 not to take a bat

00:25:05.400 to him?

00:25:05.780 Yes.

00:25:06.940 But he's not going to.

00:25:07.900 So I might wish

00:25:08.620 that all I want.

00:25:09.500 He's not going to.

00:25:10.860 So that means

00:25:12.040 a candidate

00:25:13.160 ought to have

00:25:13.940 the sense,

00:25:14.760 look,

00:25:15.000 it would have been

00:25:15.360 very easy

00:25:15.980 for O'Day to say,

00:25:17.160 I'm not going to worry

00:25:19.240 about 2024.

00:25:20.360 It's 2022.

00:25:21.520 I'm on the ballot.

00:25:22.640 The country's in crisis.

00:25:24.000 We've got to win.

00:25:25.580 This is where

00:25:26.640 anytime you have

00:25:27.980 first-time candidates,

00:25:29.280 you're rolling the dice.

00:25:30.580 I talked about Adam Laxalt

00:25:31.620 and what I like about him

00:25:32.400 is he's a disciplined candidate.

00:25:34.620 Adam wouldn't have said that. 0.99

00:25:35.740 So it's a dumb thing 0.99

00:25:38.180 for a candidate to say, 0.73

00:25:39.460 but first-time candidates

00:25:40.620 make that mistake

00:25:42.120 because they don't

00:25:42.740 game play through,

00:25:44.540 okay, if I say this,

00:25:46.800 yes.

00:25:46.880 What happens?

00:25:47.580 What's the cause and effect?

00:25:48.860 That's exactly right.

00:25:49.860 So I don't think

00:25:52.100 the chances in Colorado

00:25:53.200 are zero,

00:25:54.420 but unfortunately

00:25:55.480 it's gotten messier.

00:25:57.260 I'm less optimistic

00:25:58.280 on Colorado now

00:25:59.320 than I was two weeks ago.

00:26:00.860 Still possible,

00:26:01.680 but it would take

00:26:02.400 a really good,

00:26:04.020 really good year

00:26:05.980 and it would take

00:26:06.760 a lot of Republicans

00:26:07.740 being willing to say,

00:26:08.780 look,

00:26:10.080 I'm going to overlook

00:26:10.880 this fight

00:26:11.840 between him and Trump.

00:26:12.800 Yeah.

00:26:13.300 I will say,

00:26:14.320 by the way,

00:26:15.320 I wish Trump

00:26:17.840 was spending

00:26:18.380 some of his money.

00:26:19.180 Trump's got $100 million

00:26:20.080 and he's spending

00:26:21.060 almost none of it

00:26:21.980 to support these candidates.

00:26:23.400 That is not ideal.

00:26:25.440 When Mitch McConnell

00:26:26.180 only spends

00:26:27.100 for the moderates

00:26:27.800 and the anti-Trump candidates,

00:26:29.360 it would be nice

00:26:30.400 if Trump would spend

00:26:31.160 some of that $100 million

00:26:32.060 to help some of these candidates

00:26:33.700 who Mitch is abandoning

00:26:36.240 because they're pro-Trump.

00:26:38.480 Those are the two pockets

00:26:39.640 of money that are there

00:26:40.480 and right now

00:26:41.720 neither of them

00:26:43.220 are spending

00:26:43.660 in a number of these states.

00:26:44.920 They're not.

00:26:46.320 All right.

00:26:46.920 So those are the six

00:26:48.060 realistic pickup opportunities.

00:26:51.840 Where are we on defense?

00:26:53.140 We're on defense

00:26:53.800 in six states.

00:26:55.100 So these are states

00:26:56.120 that are currently Republican,

00:26:57.400 but we could lose.

00:26:58.780 We're at 50-50.

00:26:59.600 So we need a net of plus one

00:27:01.460 to take control of the Senate.

00:27:03.980 The most vulnerable

00:27:05.200 incumbent Republican

00:27:06.240 is Ron Johnson

00:27:07.420 in Wisconsin.

00:27:08.580 Which is shocking

00:27:09.560 because he's a very

00:27:10.400 conservative guy.

00:27:11.840 He's been leading

00:27:12.860 on the issue

00:27:13.500 of Hunter Biden

00:27:15.100 and the Biden investigation

00:27:16.120 and some of the documents

00:27:17.400 we've been seeing

00:27:18.060 more and more come out

00:27:18.980 about that

00:27:19.340 in the last week or two.

00:27:20.680 I hope that helps him

00:27:21.980 in that state.

00:27:22.980 Why is he so vulnerable though?

00:27:25.000 Because Wisconsin's

00:27:26.040 a purple state.

00:27:27.000 I mean, Wisconsin

00:27:27.640 is always a purple state.

00:27:28.960 It's evenly divided.

00:27:30.060 You've got some

00:27:30.520 very liberal voters there.

00:27:32.000 You've got some

00:27:32.400 very conservative voters there.

00:27:34.040 It's a very blue-collar state.

00:27:36.780 So I think Ron's

00:27:38.460 going to win

00:27:38.880 and actually

00:27:39.540 the current polling

00:27:40.420 shows him up

00:27:41.200 four to five points.

00:27:42.160 He's been pretty consistently.

00:27:44.720 The polling

00:27:45.320 has been stronger

00:27:46.240 both of Ron's

00:27:47.100 previous elections.

00:27:48.980 He shocked the world

00:27:50.360 by winning

00:27:50.920 because the pollsters

00:27:51.820 and the pundits

00:27:52.420 had all said

00:27:52.840 he was going to lose

00:27:53.580 and he won twice in a row.

00:27:55.340 I like Ron.

00:27:55.900 Ron is one of my

00:27:57.060 closer friends

00:27:57.600 in the Senate.

00:27:58.600 He's a strong conservative.

00:28:00.260 He's a fighter.

00:28:00.920 I've gone and campaigned

00:28:02.020 with Ron in Wisconsin.

00:28:03.520 I think we're going

00:28:03.980 to win Wisconsin.

00:28:04.820 It helps that Mandela Barnes,

00:28:06.120 the Democrat,

00:28:07.120 is really far out there.

00:28:09.420 He's been really vocal

00:28:10.320 in favor of cashless bail

00:28:12.400 and abolishing the police.

00:28:14.200 He's one of these

00:28:15.160 AOC socialists

00:28:16.380 who the Democrats

00:28:18.420 nominated

00:28:19.100 and I think

00:28:19.920 that's out of step

00:28:21.160 with Wisconsin.

00:28:22.080 So I feel pretty good

00:28:23.220 Ron will hold that seat.

00:28:24.980 It's still seriously contested

00:28:26.900 but I think we'll

00:28:28.000 hold on to that.

00:28:30.580 The next most likely

00:28:32.720 Republican seat

00:28:33.700 for us to lose

00:28:34.780 is Pennsylvania.

00:28:36.580 Pennsylvania right now

00:28:37.600 is held by Pat Toomey.

00:28:38.740 It's a Republican seat.

00:28:40.380 Like Wisconsin,

00:28:41.600 Pennsylvania is a purple state.

00:28:43.140 It can vote Republican.

00:28:44.140 It can vote Democrat.

00:28:45.100 Right now,

00:28:45.900 it has one Democrat senator,

00:28:47.360 one Republican senator.

00:28:49.320 That race

00:28:50.440 has been bumpy.

00:28:54.560 Dr. Oz,

00:28:55.560 the Republican candidate,

00:28:57.240 had a vigorous primary

00:28:59.280 with another candidate,

00:29:00.640 Dave McCormick,

00:29:01.320 who I supported in the primary

00:29:02.380 I think would have been

00:29:02.960 a very strong nominee.

00:29:04.420 But Oz won.

00:29:07.640 Oz had,

00:29:09.280 for a couple of months,

00:29:10.400 a pretty bumpy

00:29:11.100 general election campaign

00:29:12.380 against John Fetterman.

00:29:14.460 And he was down

00:29:16.040 10 points

00:29:17.180 over a month ago.

00:29:19.160 The race right now 0.58

00:29:20.580 is basically tied.

00:29:22.080 So Oz has had

00:29:23.220 a very good month

00:29:24.420 and Fetterman

00:29:25.240 has had a terrible month.

00:29:27.100 Canadian women

00:29:28.020 are looking for more.

00:29:29.400 More out of themselves,

00:29:30.420 their businesses,

00:29:31.360 their elected leaders,

00:29:32.320 and the world around them.

00:29:33.520 And that's why

00:29:33.980 we're thrilled to introduce

00:29:35.140 the Honest Talk podcast.

00:29:37.240 I'm Jennifer Stewart.

00:29:38.380 And I'm Catherine Clark.

00:29:39.660 And in this podcast,

00:29:40.620 we interview Canada's

00:29:41.800 most inspiring women,

00:29:43.280 entrepreneurs,

00:29:44.120 artists,

00:29:44.780 athletes,

00:29:45.400 politicians,

00:29:46.100 and newsmakers,

00:29:46.980 all at different stages

00:29:48.020 of their journey.

00:29:49.160 So if you're looking to connect,

00:29:50.980 then we hope you'll join us.

00:29:52.400 Listen to the Honest Talk podcast

00:29:53.780 on iHeartRadio

00:29:54.780 or wherever you listen

00:29:55.760 to your podcasts.

00:29:57.920 You mentioned Fetterman

00:29:59.100 having a terrible month.

00:30:00.660 Part of it is,

00:30:01.600 yes, he had this stroke.

00:30:03.600 Part of it was the debate

00:30:04.880 that he had.

00:30:05.500 We talked about that

00:30:06.560 on a previous verdict,

00:30:08.500 which was,

00:30:09.340 why would you even debate

00:30:10.200 if you're clearly

00:30:11.040 in that place,

00:30:12.480 cognitively,

00:30:13.440 having a very hard time

00:30:14.700 communicating.

00:30:15.560 But now he's got

00:30:16.280 another big problem,

00:30:17.340 and that is,

00:30:18.240 he's screwing up on issues,

00:30:20.640 fracking being number one.

00:30:22.640 I want people to take a look

00:30:23.820 at this video

00:30:24.380 because this may be

00:30:25.580 why he loses this race.

00:30:27.340 Take a look.

00:30:28.140 In a 2018 interview,

00:30:30.040 you said,

00:30:30.560 quote,

00:30:31.220 I don't support fracking at all.

00:30:33.260 I never have.

00:30:34.240 But earlier this month,

00:30:35.540 you told an interviewer,

00:30:36.960 quote,

00:30:37.300 I support fracking.

00:30:38.460 I support the energy independence

00:30:40.680 that we should have here

00:30:42.000 in the United States.

00:30:43.240 I've always supported fracking,

00:30:44.760 and I always believe

00:30:46.320 that independence

00:30:47.180 with our energy

00:30:48.440 is critical

00:30:49.520 and we can't be held,

00:30:50.980 you know,

00:30:52.180 ransom to somebody like Russia.

00:30:54.240 But there is that 2018 interview

00:30:56.280 that you said,

00:30:57.020 quote,

00:30:57.360 I don't support fracking at all.

00:30:59.300 So how do you square the two?

00:31:00.780 I do support fracking

00:31:07.200 and I don't,

00:31:10.820 I don't,

00:31:11.500 I support fracking

00:31:13.300 and I stand

00:31:14.200 and I do support fracking.

00:31:16.060 There's nothing worse

00:31:17.360 than a flip-flop in politics,

00:31:19.160 especially on an issue

00:31:20.260 that's so important

00:31:20.880 in Pennsylvania

00:31:21.360 on fracking.

00:31:22.380 The only thing I think now

00:31:23.700 that I realize

00:31:24.360 is worse than that

00:31:25.100 is an incoherent flip-flop.

00:31:27.420 And this was that moment

00:31:28.940 in that race

00:31:29.540 where I was like,

00:31:30.480 it's not just

00:31:31.040 that he can't communicate.

00:31:32.540 It's literally a flip-flop

00:31:33.840 with bad communication

00:31:35.040 where it looks like

00:31:35.980 he's incoherent

00:31:36.940 and just not in control

00:31:39.100 that had to have

00:31:40.160 an impact on the voters.

00:31:41.580 Yeah, look,

00:31:41.940 I think that

00:31:42.700 that moment

00:31:45.200 is one of the worst moments

00:31:46.700 I've ever seen

00:31:47.280 in a political debate.

00:31:50.360 Particularly that second question

00:31:51.880 on fracking

00:31:52.440 when she asks it,

00:31:54.680 the silence,

00:31:56.140 the confusion,

00:31:57.280 the eyes darting around,

00:31:58.820 that he clearly

00:31:59.900 has no idea

00:32:00.920 what's being asked

00:32:03.120 or what to say

00:32:04.100 and he just repeats

00:32:05.040 the line,

00:32:06.260 all he knows to say

00:32:07.420 is I support fracking

00:32:08.560 because presumably

00:32:09.220 someone trained him

00:32:10.160 to memorize that.

00:32:11.380 But he's not,

00:32:13.160 from that video,

00:32:15.220 he's not able

00:32:15.820 to actually engage

00:32:16.900 in a conversation

00:32:17.680 with another human being

00:32:18.920 about substance,

00:32:20.280 which is kind of a problem

00:32:21.540 because the job

00:32:22.220 of the Senate

00:32:22.640 entails engaging

00:32:25.280 in lots of conversations

00:32:26.280 about substance

00:32:26.980 and hearings

00:32:27.520 and making determinations

00:32:28.560 and judgment.

00:32:29.840 I think that debate

00:32:31.080 is unbelievably damaging.

00:32:33.800 Prior to the debate,

00:32:36.020 my handicapping

00:32:37.060 of Pennsylvania

00:32:37.840 was it was essentially

00:32:38.980 a coin flip.

00:32:40.260 If we were going

00:32:41.200 to lose a seat,

00:32:41.960 it was going to be Pennsylvania.

00:32:43.920 I think after the debate,

00:32:45.660 the odds have shifted

00:32:46.780 significantly

00:32:47.840 to Republicans winning,

00:32:52.540 to Oz winning.

00:32:53.200 I think Oz is likely

00:32:54.200 to win.

00:32:54.640 Now, one downside,

00:32:56.300 there were hundreds

00:32:56.920 of thousands

00:32:57.400 of Pennsylvania votes

00:32:58.340 that had been cast already

00:32:59.360 before that debate happened.

00:33:01.580 Early voting there is big.

00:33:03.040 Early voting there is big.

00:33:04.500 They put in place

00:33:05.280 universal mail-in ballots, 0.98

00:33:07.360 an incredibly foolish decision, 0.96

00:33:10.800 a decision that invites 0.99

00:33:11.960 voter fraud.

00:33:12.680 But one of the reasons

00:33:13.380 it's a bad idea

00:33:14.180 to have such early voting

00:33:15.260 is you bake in votes

00:33:17.100 before late-breaking

00:33:18.220 developments happen.

00:33:19.140 So for all the people

00:33:19.940 who voted before the debate,

00:33:21.440 they didn't see this.

00:33:22.340 They didn't know

00:33:23.100 that they just voted

00:33:23.940 for someone

00:33:24.600 who can't answer

00:33:25.900 simple questions

00:33:26.860 and has clearly

00:33:28.960 been deceiving the voters

00:33:30.200 by saying he's up to the task.

00:33:32.340 I want to ask you

00:33:33.320 on a human level,

00:33:34.260 I watched that debate

00:33:35.740 and I genuinely felt bad

00:33:39.240 for Fetterman.

00:33:40.200 I also think,

00:33:41.620 even after that debate,

00:33:43.000 seeing the way

00:33:43.820 his campaign is obsessed

00:33:45.120 with just getting him

00:33:45.920 over the finish line

00:33:46.560 and the Democratic

00:33:47.300 National Committee,

00:33:48.600 the Democratic leadership,

00:33:49.900 I feel like they're

00:33:51.700 almost taking advantage

00:33:52.460 of him.

00:33:52.880 They know that clearly

00:33:53.900 something's changed,

00:33:54.880 that he's been incapacitated.

00:33:56.620 I'm sitting there going,

00:33:57.780 as a human being,

00:33:58.700 I want him to get

00:33:59.520 as much help as he can

00:34:00.500 to overcome this stroke

00:34:02.380 that he's had.

00:34:03.460 And they're just

00:34:04.240 propping this guy up

00:34:05.580 saying,

00:34:06.160 we're going to keep

00:34:07.080 forcing you down

00:34:08.140 this election road.

00:34:09.480 I found it just

00:34:10.680 completely disheartening

00:34:11.860 as a human being

00:34:13.000 to see them out there

00:34:14.340 saying,

00:34:15.180 no, no, no,

00:34:15.740 we're going to,

00:34:16.140 he's fine. 1.00

00:34:17.080 Shut up, 1.00

00:34:17.660 stop asking questions. 1.00

00:34:18.980 He's fine.

00:34:19.880 Clearly he's not fine

00:34:21.160 and they want to win

00:34:22.040 this seat so bad

00:34:22.740 they don't care

00:34:23.200 what happens to him even.

00:34:24.960 Well, you know,

00:34:25.360 if they're willing

00:34:25.740 to do that,

00:34:26.420 think what they would do

00:34:27.200 to try to win

00:34:27.760 the White House

00:34:28.200 in 2020.

00:34:30.140 Yeah.

00:34:30.700 Look, it's the same thing

00:34:31.700 they've done with Joe Biden.

00:34:33.800 In both instances,

00:34:34.880 you've got someone 0.72

00:34:35.820 with severe mental impairments 0.94

00:34:37.920 that their partisan interests 0.65

00:34:40.040 are so important

00:34:40.860 they're willing to

00:34:41.720 weaken at Bernie's them.

00:34:43.180 Just put them up there

00:34:44.220 and attach a pulley,

00:34:45.400 raise their hand

00:34:45.940 when they want them

00:34:46.420 to raise it.

00:34:46.960 Now, I will say this.

00:34:48.800 You said you feel

00:34:49.420 sorry for him.

00:34:51.320 I've got to say,

00:34:52.000 listen,

00:34:52.320 I feel sorry

00:34:52.940 that he's having

00:34:53.540 the health impairments.

00:34:54.980 I don't wish

00:34:55.820 ill health on anyone.

00:34:58.180 But before his stroke,

00:35:01.100 John Fetterman

00:35:01.800 was a socialist.

00:35:03.220 He was a radical

00:35:04.100 left winger.

00:35:05.260 He was someone

00:35:06.000 who repeatedly

00:35:07.540 voted to release

00:35:09.060 murderers

00:35:09.640 and violent criminals 0.99

00:35:10.580 into the community. 0.99

00:35:11.480 murderers. 0.91

00:35:12.020 I want people

00:35:12.420 to understand that.

00:35:13.260 It's almost been overlooked

00:35:14.400 by people acting

00:35:15.040 like this is normal.

00:35:16.120 This is a guy

00:35:16.800 that actually said

00:35:17.560 people that had murdered

00:35:18.300 people have been

00:35:18.660 convicted of murdering

00:35:19.500 with no controversy

00:35:21.240 around the indictment

00:35:23.760 and the verdict

00:35:24.740 of being guilty

00:35:26.120 should be out

00:35:27.580 on the streets

00:35:28.060 with the American people.

00:35:28.900 He said repeatedly

00:35:29.780 that we could release

00:35:31.820 a third of the people

00:35:32.640 in prison in Pennsylvania

00:35:33.640 and there would be

00:35:34.920 no harm to it.

00:35:36.500 That is a radical view

00:35:38.560 if you want to

00:35:39.560 empty out the jail

00:35:40.700 and release a third

00:35:41.620 of the people immediately

00:35:42.900 and we're not talking

00:35:44.040 traffic offenses.

00:35:45.340 We're talking murderers. 0.79

00:35:47.220 We're talking rapists. 0.99

00:35:48.140 We're talking child molesters. 0.89

00:35:50.460 I have less sympathy

00:35:52.240 for someone

00:35:53.060 who is a true radical

00:35:56.060 who is a Marxist

00:35:57.380 and like many Marxists

00:35:59.500 he's rich.

00:36:01.380 Rich people often

00:36:02.320 look he has a trust fund.

00:36:04.180 He was a giant

00:36:05.280 man baby

00:36:06.600 living with his mommy

00:36:08.540 and daddy

00:36:09.020 until he was 40.

00:36:10.920 He didn't pay

00:36:11.860 his own taxes.

00:36:12.740 He didn't pay

00:36:13.100 his school taxes

00:36:13.840 for 13 consecutive years.

00:36:16.680 People who inherit 0.88

00:36:18.100 great wealth

00:36:18.860 and advocate

00:36:20.500 for socialism

00:36:21.500 because they feel guilty

00:36:23.360 about the great wealth

00:36:24.280 and so they think

00:36:24.940 socialism is the right answer.

00:36:26.320 I don't have a lot

00:36:27.080 of sympathy for them

00:36:27.960 and I think some of it is

00:36:29.420 because my family story

00:36:30.560 in Cuba.

00:36:31.400 I've seen what

00:36:32.180 communism does

00:36:33.120 and I don't have

00:36:34.320 sympathy for people

00:36:36.140 that want to inflict

00:36:37.340 that kind of misery

00:36:38.960 on Americans.

00:36:41.160 I will say this though

00:36:42.500 the Democrats

00:36:44.680 are desperately

00:36:45.560 telling themselves

00:36:46.640 the Fetterman debate

00:36:48.840 didn't do any harm.

00:36:50.580 Now quietly

00:36:51.100 in Washington

00:36:51.740 they're freaking out

00:36:52.640 but they're trying

00:36:53.920 to spin it otherwise

00:36:55.460 and in fact

00:36:56.160 Chuck Schumer

00:36:56.860 was caught in a hot mic.

00:36:58.280 I was just saying

00:36:58.920 I want to play this

00:36:59.720 because he was caught

00:37:00.900 on a hot mic

00:37:01.600 and it was really

00:37:02.860 telling about

00:37:03.680 where the Democrats

00:37:04.640 are going into

00:37:05.640 the election day.

00:37:06.740 Take a listen to this.

00:37:07.640 Let's see

00:37:08.860 we're in danger

00:37:10.860 in that scene

00:37:11.520 because

00:37:11.960 they don't have

00:37:13.060 that

00:37:13.360 but we're

00:37:14.220 going to discuss

00:37:15.080 that scene

00:37:16.360 but we're

00:37:17.080 you know

00:37:17.460 in there

00:37:17.920 it looks like

00:37:19.060 it looks like

00:37:20.380 the states

00:37:21.600 didn't hurt us

00:37:22.240 as much

00:37:22.640 as the bank

00:37:23.400 as it did

00:37:23.940 so that's good

00:37:24.940 and

00:37:26.080 we're

00:37:27.080 basically

00:37:27.640 we're

00:37:28.240 going to

00:37:28.660 keep on that.

00:37:31.280 Danger

00:37:31.800 use the word

00:37:32.520 danger there.

00:37:33.620 Well and it's

00:37:34.060 interesting

00:37:34.380 so

00:37:34.720 what he says

00:37:35.960 we're in danger

00:37:36.700 is of losing

00:37:37.620 in Georgia

00:37:38.160 and he says

00:37:38.560 we're slipping

00:37:39.100 in Georgia

00:37:39.660 and he's

00:37:40.180 acknowledging

00:37:40.780 and actually

00:37:42.220 the debate

00:37:42.680 made a difference

00:37:43.400 there.

00:37:43.860 Warnock

00:37:44.220 the expectations

00:37:45.040 were so high

00:37:46.120 and he's a preacher

00:37:47.600 he's very smooth

00:37:48.660 he's very eloquent

00:37:49.800 he's very slick

00:37:50.580 and

00:37:52.580 and Herschel Walker

00:37:53.880 did a very smart job

00:37:55.580 of downplaying

00:37:56.900 expectations

00:37:57.700 and you know

00:37:58.320 before the debate

00:37:59.180 Herschel would say

00:38:00.280 well you know

00:38:00.820 he's a very slick

00:38:02.080 preacher man

00:38:02.700 he knows

00:38:03.380 he'll talk really

00:38:04.320 you know

00:38:05.260 really well

00:38:06.060 and he said

00:38:06.400 you know

00:38:06.600 I'm just a country

00:38:07.260 boy from Georgia

00:38:08.020 that was very

00:38:09.720 Herschel knew

00:38:10.340 exactly what he was

00:38:11.000 doing

00:38:11.260 setting expectations

00:38:13.160 and I think

00:38:13.620 the contrast

00:38:14.440 there

00:38:14.940 Herschel won

00:38:16.760 that debate

00:38:17.320 which was

00:38:19.160 particularly damaging

00:38:20.200 to Warnock

00:38:20.740 because it exposed

00:38:21.580 just how extreme

00:38:22.840 and radical

00:38:23.360 his policies were

00:38:24.620 and that's what

00:38:27.680 Schumer is telling

00:38:28.700 Biden

00:38:29.360 is we're in real

00:38:30.140 danger

00:38:30.480 we're slipping

00:38:31.020 in Georgia

00:38:31.540 they're recognizing

00:38:32.500 uh oh

00:38:33.060 he's in trouble

00:38:34.800 he also tells

00:38:36.320 Biden there

00:38:37.120 the good news is

00:38:38.560 he doesn't think

00:38:39.200 the debate

00:38:39.680 hurt them

00:38:40.340 in Pennsylvania 0.95

00:38:41.000 so we'll see

00:38:41.820 listen

00:38:42.320 with the hardcore

00:38:43.520 Democrats

00:38:43.980 if you're a hard

00:38:44.880 partisan

00:38:45.260 if you're a socialist

00:38:46.160 you're gonna vote

00:38:47.320 you're gonna vote

00:38:47.340 for Fetterman

00:38:47.820 you're gonna vote

00:38:48.360 for Warnock

00:38:48.800 no matter what

00:38:49.400 he's probably right

00:38:50.600 um and look

00:38:52.360 you're hearing

00:38:52.760 more and more chatter

00:38:53.540 the Democrats

00:38:54.160 plan is to try

00:38:55.380 to get Fetterman

00:38:56.080 elected

00:38:56.480 and then if he's

00:38:57.240 completely unable

00:38:58.340 to do the job

00:38:59.160 have him resign

00:39:00.220 and fill him with

00:39:01.060 fill him in

00:39:01.740 with another Democrat

00:39:02.540 that this is all

00:39:03.300 about power

00:39:03.980 and he's just

00:39:05.800 fill in the blank

00:39:06.500 right here

00:39:07.100 um

00:39:08.260 I don't think

00:39:10.920 Schumer's right though

00:39:11.660 I think he's right

00:39:12.340 with his hardcore

00:39:12.960 partisans

00:39:13.640 but with the

00:39:14.460 with the soccer

00:39:16.620 mom vote

00:39:17.480 you know

00:39:18.720 the Philly suburbs

00:39:19.760 you've got a lot

00:39:21.360 of voters

00:39:21.800 that have historically

00:39:22.600 been swing voters

00:39:23.640 that have been

00:39:25.180 sometimes

00:39:26.460 Republicans

00:39:27.460 sometimes Democrats

00:39:28.620 they're the voters

00:39:30.180 that elected Pat Toomey

00:39:31.300 I don't think

00:39:34.180 if you're a suburban mom

00:39:35.540 and you watch that

00:39:36.660 you have any confidence

00:39:38.740 about Fetterman

00:39:39.440 I think you look at him

00:39:40.500 and say

00:39:40.960 I've got real concerns

00:39:43.480 there

00:39:43.760 and so I think

00:39:44.540 Schumer is wrong

00:39:45.220 about that

00:39:45.620 alright

00:39:45.780 where else

00:39:46.260 are we on defense

00:39:47.040 we're on defense

00:39:48.240 in North Carolina

00:39:49.000 uh

00:39:50.240 Republican retiring

00:39:51.240 there

00:39:51.680 Ted Budd

00:39:52.220 is the nominee

00:39:52.780 I was campaigning

00:39:53.580 with Ted

00:39:54.000 earlier this week

00:39:54.760 um

00:39:55.680 I think Ted's

00:39:56.480 gonna win

00:39:56.860 I think he's

00:39:57.660 a smart candidate

00:39:59.040 I think he's

00:39:59.500 running a good

00:40:00.000 campaign

00:40:00.600 North Carolina

00:40:01.640 is historically

00:40:02.300 a purple state

00:40:03.040 you can't take

00:40:03.540 it for granted

00:40:04.040 yeah

00:40:04.320 you gotta fight

00:40:05.180 hard there

00:40:05.500 every time

00:40:05.960 it is almost

00:40:06.760 always a race

00:40:07.760 that is decided

00:40:08.600 by a couple of

00:40:09.240 points

00:40:09.580 so I actually

00:40:10.880 worry about

00:40:11.600 North Carolina

00:40:12.160 I think Republicans

00:40:12.800 are taking it a little

00:40:13.640 too for granted

00:40:14.500 uh

00:40:15.900 because Ted Budd

00:40:17.240 is a good enough

00:40:17.800 candidate

00:40:18.180 they're like

00:40:18.660 oh we're fine

00:40:19.680 historically

00:40:21.660 this has been

00:40:22.620 a dangerous state

00:40:23.560 and so

00:40:24.020 I think we'll win

00:40:24.820 but we need to

00:40:25.340 take it seriously

00:40:26.180 uh

00:40:27.360 Ohio

00:40:27.800 J.D. Vance

00:40:29.280 is the nominee

00:40:29.900 I spent an entire

00:40:31.100 day campaigning

00:40:31.880 with J.D.

00:40:32.440 we did events

00:40:33.060 all over the state

00:40:33.980 with huge crowds

00:40:35.300 massive

00:40:35.740 which goes back

00:40:37.080 to

00:40:37.440 when you're on

00:40:38.620 the road

00:40:39.040 you can feel

00:40:40.220 momentum

00:40:40.680 and I've

00:40:41.700 always said

00:40:42.280 you can tell

00:40:42.900 how an election

00:40:43.480 is going to turn

00:40:44.140 if it's a tight

00:40:44.700 election

00:40:45.080 based on momentum

00:40:45.980 the momentum

00:40:47.180 there

00:40:47.680 seemed to be

00:40:48.720 massive

00:40:49.080 I even

00:40:49.600 I think

00:40:50.300 I texted you

00:40:51.000 that I was

00:40:51.980 having FOMO

00:40:52.640 fear of missing

00:40:53.200 out

00:40:53.520 because it

00:40:54.080 seemed like

00:40:54.740 it was such

00:40:55.540 a raw

00:40:56.280 intense

00:40:57.480 grand debate

00:40:58.160 that was

00:40:58.480 happening

00:40:58.880 and an

00:40:59.640 amazing

00:41:00.240 electric crowd

00:41:01.040 when you were

00:41:01.540 there with him

00:41:02.100 yeah

00:41:02.500 no I think

00:41:02.900 that's exactly

00:41:03.480 right

00:41:03.780 I will say

00:41:04.260 J.D. is also

00:41:05.180 running a smart

00:41:06.260 disciplined

00:41:07.080 campaign

00:41:07.840 he's a first

00:41:09.300 time candidate

00:41:09.900 I was

00:41:10.300 concerned

00:41:11.000 when he

00:41:11.420 started

00:41:11.780 that

00:41:12.120 with first

00:41:13.420 time

00:41:13.660 candidates

00:41:14.100 they're prone

00:41:14.640 to mistakes

00:41:15.220 that it

00:41:16.280 I was

00:41:18.720 really impressed

00:41:19.660 he's doing a

00:41:20.180 good job

00:41:20.660 on the stump

00:41:21.140 he's doing a

00:41:21.660 good job

00:41:22.080 with the

00:41:22.340 grassroots

00:41:22.820 his messaging

00:41:24.380 is tight

00:41:25.120 and disciplined

00:41:25.820 he's not

00:41:26.420 screwing up

00:41:27.100 and the

00:41:28.360 polling there

00:41:29.160 is pretty

00:41:29.600 consistently

00:41:30.140 showing it

00:41:31.100 with him

00:41:32.780 up about

00:41:33.160 four or five

00:41:33.760 points

00:41:34.100 I think

00:41:34.540 we'll be

00:41:34.840 fine in

00:41:35.260 Ohio

00:41:35.600 it helps

00:41:36.620 that DeWine

00:41:37.420 the incumbent

00:41:38.280 governor

00:41:38.740 is going to

00:41:39.680 be re-elected

00:41:40.320 by double

00:41:40.680 digits

00:41:40.940 so we've

00:41:41.380 got another

00:41:41.800 another state

00:41:42.580 where a

00:41:43.340 governor has

00:41:44.080 a big

00:41:44.480 big margin

00:41:45.120 and that

00:41:46.340 should help

00:41:46.980 the senate

00:41:47.360 candidate

00:41:47.740 as well

00:41:48.220 two more

00:41:50.520 places

00:41:50.880 we're on

00:41:51.280 defense

00:41:51.840 Missouri

00:41:52.700 Republican

00:41:53.780 retirement

00:41:54.360 Roy Blunt

00:41:55.060 Eric Schmidt

00:41:56.500 is the

00:41:56.820 nominee

00:41:57.120 he's the

00:41:57.660 attorney

00:41:57.920 general

00:41:58.400 I campaigned

00:41:59.860 for him

00:42:00.200 in the

00:42:00.560 primary

00:42:01.000 did events

00:42:02.260 all over

00:42:02.700 I think

00:42:02.920 the primary

00:42:03.480 really really

00:42:04.340 mattered

00:42:04.760 the one

00:42:06.680 candidate

00:42:07.180 who could

00:42:08.340 have lost

00:42:08.820 that race

00:42:09.440 was Eric

00:42:09.900 Greitens

00:42:10.320 Eric Greitens

00:42:10.940 was the

00:42:11.340 former governor

00:42:12.080 of Missouri

00:42:13.640 he resigned

00:42:16.920 in disgrace

00:42:17.620 and scandal

00:42:18.380 there were a

00:42:20.020 number of

00:42:20.460 different scandals

00:42:21.280 including a

00:42:22.880 fundraising scandal

00:42:24.340 but the one

00:42:25.480 that really stuck

00:42:26.160 in people's

00:42:26.720 minds was

00:42:27.500 that he was

00:42:28.460 accused of

00:42:29.920 having an affair

00:42:30.880 and tying up

00:42:31.900 his mistress

00:42:32.420 in his basement

00:42:33.100 and then taking

00:42:33.740 a picture of

00:42:34.420 her

00:42:34.660 against her

00:42:36.200 wishes

00:42:36.500 and using

00:42:37.100 it to

00:42:37.440 blackmail

00:42:37.880 her 0.99

00:42:38.140 pretty ugly 0.94

00:42:40.240 stuff

00:42:40.720 and he

00:42:41.960 resigned

00:42:42.460 from governor

00:42:43.040 in disgrace

00:42:43.580 I don't

00:42:45.560 know the

00:42:45.880 truth or

00:42:46.260 falsity

00:42:46.680 of any

00:42:47.220 of it

00:42:47.520 but I

00:42:47.840 will say

00:42:48.440 I sort

00:42:49.080 of joked

00:42:49.480 I said

00:42:49.900 look

00:42:50.140 for Republicans

00:42:51.500 I don't

00:42:52.880 know that

00:42:53.220 the bar

00:42:53.680 for candidates

00:42:54.340 needs to

00:42:54.880 be extraordinarily

00:42:55.880 high

00:42:56.580 but is it

00:42:58.120 asking too

00:42:58.800 much that

00:42:59.280 our candidates

00:42:59.900 not have

00:43:01.360 tied a woman 0.97

00:43:01.840 up in their

00:43:02.240 basement

00:43:02.540 that seems

00:43:03.460 to me

00:43:03.900 there should

00:43:05.260 be a standard

00:43:05.740 above that

00:43:06.320 we should

00:43:06.900 just be like

00:43:07.540 okay that's

00:43:08.180 a problem

00:43:08.700 let's not

00:43:09.240 go with

00:43:09.620 that

00:43:09.920 I think

00:43:12.100 if Gritens

00:43:12.660 had been

00:43:12.960 the nominee

00:43:13.400 the Democrats

00:43:14.620 would have

00:43:15.120 flooded money

00:43:16.000 into that race

00:43:16.720 and tried to

00:43:17.200 make it

00:43:17.480 competitive

00:43:17.920 with Eric

00:43:19.400 with Eric

00:43:19.420 Schmidt

00:43:19.680 he's the

00:43:20.140 attorney

00:43:20.460 general

00:43:20.920 he's a

00:43:21.320 smart

00:43:21.680 disciplined

00:43:22.380 candidate

00:43:22.880 he's a

00:43:23.160 conservative

00:43:23.680 I think

00:43:24.460 he'll be

00:43:24.740 one of the

00:43:25.160 most

00:43:25.340 conservative

00:43:25.920 Republicans

00:43:27.040 elected

00:43:27.540 this cycle

00:43:28.320 so I've

00:43:28.780 done multiple

00:43:29.420 events with

00:43:29.980 Eric

00:43:30.260 I think

00:43:31.220 Eric and

00:43:31.780 Adam Laxalt

00:43:32.520 are the

00:43:32.800 two most

00:43:33.640 disciplined

00:43:34.340 this is not

00:43:36.440 their first

00:43:36.840 rodeo

00:43:37.220 so they're

00:43:37.640 running

00:43:38.060 smart

00:43:38.580 careful

00:43:39.000 disciplined

00:43:39.400 campaigns

00:43:40.100 Eric's

00:43:41.120 going to

00:43:41.320 win that

00:43:41.680 race

00:43:41.920 but it

00:43:42.200 was one

00:43:42.660 in the

00:43:42.920 primary

00:43:43.260 he's

00:43:44.380 got

00:43:44.720 a

00:43:45.680 billionaire

00:43:46.520 heiress

00:43:47.240 Trudy

00:43:48.560 Bush

00:43:48.780 Valentine

00:43:49.280 of

00:43:49.860 Bush

00:43:50.480 Beer

00:43:50.820 but

00:43:52.520 at the

00:43:53.820 end of

00:43:54.080 the day

00:43:54.660 Missouri

00:43:56.140 is a

00:43:56.580 red

00:43:56.780 state

00:43:57.140 and Eric

00:43:57.500 is a

00:43:57.720 good

00:43:57.860 candidate

00:43:58.200 he's

00:43:58.460 going to

00:43:58.600 win

00:43:58.740 that

00:43:58.900 race

00:43:59.180 the

00:43:59.880 final

00:44:00.440 potential

00:44:01.320 loss

00:44:02.020 is

00:44:02.360 Florida

00:44:02.800 Marco

00:44:03.160 Rubio

00:44:03.540 is up

00:44:03.820 again

00:44:04.240 Florida

00:44:05.880 historically

00:44:06.740 has been

00:44:07.360 a purple

00:44:08.040 state

00:44:08.520 I think

00:44:09.760 Marco

00:44:10.060 is doing

00:44:10.340 a good

00:44:10.580 job

00:44:11.100 and

00:44:11.860 this is

00:44:12.300 a pattern

00:44:12.680 we're

00:44:12.860 seeing

00:44:13.060 a number

00:44:13.360 of

00:44:13.560 states

00:44:13.880 DeSantis

00:44:14.880 is

00:44:15.300 kicking 0.99

00:44:15.660 ass 1.00

00:44:16.200 and 0.89

00:44:17.580 he's

00:44:18.520 going

00:44:18.720 to win

00:44:19.160 I think

00:44:19.480 by a

00:44:19.840 significant

00:44:20.340 margin

00:44:20.860 and just

00:44:21.300 like Georgia

00:44:21.920 just like

00:44:22.400 Arizona

00:44:22.820 like

00:44:23.080 yeah

00:44:23.300 it'd be

00:44:23.640 hard

00:44:23.880 for you

00:44:24.180 imagine

00:44:24.580 you walk

00:44:25.100 in there

00:44:25.340 to vote

00:44:25.600 for

00:44:25.760 DeSantis

00:44:26.200 and you

00:44:26.600 don't

00:44:27.000 vote

00:44:27.260 for

00:44:27.420 Marco

00:44:27.700 Rubio

00:44:28.060 at the

00:44:28.320 same

00:44:28.500 time

00:44:28.860 well

00:44:29.180 now

00:44:29.380 I

00:44:29.520 will

00:44:29.720 say

00:44:30.020 Marco's

00:44:30.620 Democrat

00:44:31.060 candidate

00:44:31.500 is

00:44:31.820 dangerous

00:44:32.500 they

00:44:32.900 do

00:44:33.180 a

00:44:33.360 really

00:44:33.760 good

00:44:34.100 job

00:44:34.680 in

00:44:35.020 candidate

00:44:35.440 selection

00:44:35.980 his

00:44:36.340 Democrat

00:44:36.960 candidate

00:44:37.460 is

00:44:37.720 Val

00:44:37.960 Demings

00:44:38.400 she's

00:44:39.100 an

00:44:39.220 African

00:44:39.460 American

00:44:39.800 woman 0.99

00:44:40.160 she

00:44:40.360 was

00:44:40.500 a

00:44:40.620 former

00:44:40.840 police

00:44:41.280 chief

00:44:41.640 and so

00:44:42.060 one of

00:44:42.320 the

00:44:42.460 great

00:44:42.920 vulnerabilities

00:44:43.920 Democrats

00:44:44.460 have

00:44:44.840 nationally

00:44:45.280 is on

00:44:45.600 crime

00:44:45.980 on

00:44:46.140 abolishing

00:44:46.620 the

00:44:46.800 police

00:44:47.080 on

00:44:47.260 defunding

00:44:47.700 the

00:44:47.840 police

00:44:48.260 Val

00:44:49.340 Demings

00:44:49.840 is

00:44:50.180 particularly

00:44:51.180 able

00:44:51.920 to

00:44:52.200 counter

00:44:52.600 that

00:44:52.880 attack

00:44:53.320 because

00:44:53.900 she was

00:44:54.280 a cop

00:44:54.680 for decades

00:44:55.320 and was

00:44:55.600 a police

00:44:55.980 chief

00:44:56.300 and that

00:44:56.640 attack

00:44:57.940 doesn't

00:44:58.400 stick

00:44:58.660 with her

00:44:58.980 even

00:44:59.820 so

00:45:00.440 Marco

00:45:02.280 is a

00:45:02.540 smart

00:45:03.080 discipline

00:45:03.600 candidate

00:45:04.340 DeSantis

00:45:05.440 has done

00:45:05.940 a really

00:45:06.300 good job

00:45:06.860 as governor

00:45:07.280 of Florida

00:45:07.700 I think

00:45:08.080 we'll be

00:45:08.400 fine

00:45:08.680 in Florida

00:45:09.040 but those

00:45:09.560 are

00:45:09.800 those

00:45:10.880 six

00:45:11.360 are the

00:45:11.740 universe

00:45:12.240 of seats

00:45:12.800 we could

00:45:13.520 lose

00:45:14.060 now let 0.74

00:45:14.900 me throw

00:45:15.180 two wild

00:45:15.720 cards

00:45:16.020 in there

00:45:16.320 the two

00:45:18.280 wild

00:45:18.620 cards

00:45:18.980 are

00:45:19.120 Alaska

00:45:19.580 and Utah

00:45:20.360 so

00:45:22.100 Alaska

00:45:22.660 you've

00:45:23.220 got a

00:45:23.520 weird

00:45:23.800 race

00:45:24.300 you have

00:45:24.800 Lisa

00:45:25.040 Murkowski

00:45:25.580 one of

00:45:27.000 the two

00:45:27.360 most

00:45:27.740 moderate

00:45:28.220 Republicans

00:45:28.780 in the

00:45:29.120 Senate

00:45:29.300 right

00:45:29.540 now

00:45:29.820 and then

00:45:31.980 you have

00:45:32.880 Kelly

00:45:34.140 Chewbacca 0.99

00:45:34.620 who is

00:45:35.840 a

00:45:36.540 challenger

00:45:37.200 a Republican

00:45:37.980 she is

00:45:39.260 supported

00:45:39.640 by Donald

00:45:40.160 Trump

00:45:40.500 she's a

00:45:40.920 conservative

00:45:41.400 she's got

00:45:41.840 a lot

00:45:42.180 of

00:45:42.280 grassroots

00:45:42.640 support

00:45:43.200 and then

00:45:44.620 you've

00:45:44.780 got a

00:45:44.980 Democrat

00:45:45.220 in the

00:45:45.660 race

00:45:45.940 now

00:45:47.300 the

00:45:47.660 polling

00:45:48.140 right

00:45:48.520 now

00:45:48.960 between

00:45:49.620 Murkowski

00:45:50.260 and

00:45:50.520 Chewbacca 0.99

00:45:50.980 has been

00:45:52.500 back and

00:45:53.060 forth

00:45:53.280 and back

00:45:53.660 and forth

00:45:54.080 and it

00:45:54.440 appears to

00:45:55.380 be

00:45:55.480 essentially

00:45:55.920 tied

00:45:56.400 Mitch

00:45:57.740 McConnell

00:45:58.200 has put

00:45:58.740 I think

00:45:59.040 seven

00:45:59.360 eight

00:45:59.580 million

00:45:59.900 dollars

00:46:00.380 into

00:46:00.760 Alaska

00:46:01.240 supporting

00:46:01.760 McConnell

00:46:02.160 mind

00:46:02.840 you

00:46:02.960 he's

00:46:03.100 not

00:46:03.260 spending

00:46:03.580 that

00:46:03.800 money

00:46:04.020 in

00:46:04.140 Arizona

00:46:04.420 he's

00:46:04.740 not

00:46:04.880 spending

00:46:05.120 that

00:46:05.300 money

00:46:05.480 in

00:46:05.620 New

00:46:05.740 Hampshire

00:46:06.060 he's

00:46:07.020 spending

00:46:07.380 it

00:46:07.620 supporting

00:46:08.000 Murkowski

00:46:08.560 in Alaska

00:46:09.880 because he

00:46:10.460 supports

00:46:11.000 moderate

00:46:11.900 Republicans

00:46:12.460 and he

00:46:12.960 doesn't

00:46:13.700 really want

00:46:14.060 conservatives

00:46:14.480 to win

00:46:14.820 he knows

00:46:15.240 it's going

00:46:15.560 to be a

00:46:15.940 vote

00:46:16.180 that comes

00:46:16.800 the Senate

00:46:17.180 he can

00:46:17.580 control

00:46:18.020 so I

00:46:19.480 will

00:46:19.600 say

00:46:19.880 in

00:46:20.100 that

00:46:20.320 race

00:46:20.780 the

00:46:23.560 two

00:46:24.200 of

00:46:24.380 them

00:46:24.560 appear

00:46:24.920 to be

00:46:25.240 essentially

00:46:25.760 tied

00:46:26.280 Alaska

00:46:28.780 has

00:46:29.260 this

00:46:29.520 weird

00:46:29.920 dynamic

00:46:30.440 called

00:46:30.820 rank

00:46:31.060 choice

00:46:31.340 voting

00:46:31.720 which

00:46:33.180 is

00:46:33.500 you

00:46:33.640 vote

00:46:33.840 for

00:46:33.980 your

00:46:34.100 first

00:46:34.360 choice

00:46:34.740 and

00:46:35.320 you

00:46:35.400 vote

00:46:35.560 for

00:46:35.680 your

00:46:35.820 second

00:46:36.040 choice

00:46:36.480 and

00:46:37.420 if

00:46:37.560 your

00:46:37.700 first

00:46:38.000 choice

00:46:38.460 doesn't

00:46:39.320 finish

00:46:39.640 in the

00:46:39.880 top

00:46:40.100 two

00:46:40.500 they

00:46:41.240 eliminate

00:46:41.620 your

00:46:41.880 first

00:46:42.140 choice

00:46:42.540 and

00:46:43.260 they

00:46:43.400 reallocate

00:46:43.940 your

00:46:44.240 vote

00:46:44.480 to

00:46:44.640 your

00:46:44.780 second

00:46:45.060 choice

00:46:45.500 there

00:46:47.000 is

00:46:47.340 a

00:46:47.560 danger

00:46:48.080 we

00:46:48.800 lose

00:46:49.400 this

00:46:49.720 seat

00:46:50.120 that

00:46:51.140 we

00:46:51.320 elect

00:46:51.820 the

00:46:52.120 Democrat

00:46:52.520 and

00:46:52.820 so

00:46:53.000 I'm

00:46:53.220 going

00:46:53.320 to

00:46:53.400 say

00:46:53.560 listen

00:46:53.800 I

00:46:54.040 have

00:46:54.180 stayed

00:46:54.600 out

00:46:54.880 of

00:46:55.040 the

00:46:55.160 primary

00:46:55.600 between

00:46:57.120 Murkowski

00:46:58.100 and Chewbacca

00:46:58.720 in my

00:47:00.020 entire time

00:47:00.640 in the

00:47:00.880 Senate

00:47:01.060 I've

00:47:01.320 always

00:47:01.600 stayed

00:47:01.860 out

00:47:02.000 of

00:47:02.120 primaries

00:47:02.600 involving

00:47:03.040 my

00:47:03.320 colleagues

00:47:03.720 because

00:47:04.340 frankly

00:47:04.740 you

00:47:05.000 can't

00:47:05.400 do

00:47:05.600 the

00:47:05.800 job

00:47:06.280 if

00:47:07.000 you

00:47:08.480 get

00:47:08.820 involved

00:47:09.340 if

00:47:09.540 you're

00:47:09.800 primarying

00:47:10.460 your

00:47:10.620 colleagues

00:47:12.540 it

00:47:12.940 just

00:47:13.520 makes

00:47:13.820 it

00:47:13.960 impossible

00:47:14.460 to

00:47:14.800 actually

00:47:15.440 particularly

00:47:16.560 in a

00:47:16.780 close

00:47:17.060 Senate

00:47:17.360 to

00:47:17.560 get

00:47:17.740 the

00:47:17.900 votes

00:47:18.140 you

00:47:18.300 need

00:47:18.640 to

00:47:18.980 advance

00:47:19.500 the

00:47:19.660 legislation

00:47:20.160 you

00:47:20.420 need

00:47:20.620 to

00:47:20.780 fight

00:47:21.000 for

00:47:21.320 the

00:47:21.740 30

00:47:21.960 million

00:47:22.200 Texans

00:47:22.640 I'm

00:47:22.840 elected

00:47:23.120 to

00:47:23.300 fighting

00:47:23.520 for

00:47:23.700 so

00:47:23.860 I've

00:47:24.060 stayed

00:47:24.280 out

00:47:24.480 of

00:47:24.560 the

00:47:24.660 primary

00:47:25.020 I

00:47:25.940 will

00:47:28.340 say

00:47:28.740 it

00:47:28.920 follows

00:47:29.400 the

00:47:29.640 pattern

00:47:30.160 of

00:47:31.380 states

00:47:31.880 where

00:47:32.120 we're

00:47:32.360 in

00:47:32.540 trouble

00:47:32.900 where

00:47:33.140 Trump

00:47:33.580 is

00:47:33.800 in

00:47:33.900 a

00:47:34.060 battle

00:47:34.400 with

00:47:35.400 the

00:47:35.540 incumbent

00:47:35.880 Republican

00:47:36.420 or

00:47:36.580 the

00:47:36.680 Republican

00:47:37.020 candidates

00:47:37.500 we

00:47:37.660 talked

00:47:37.880 about

00:47:38.060 that

00:47:38.260 in

00:47:38.400 Colorado

00:47:38.880 Trump

00:47:39.960 and

00:47:40.140 Murkowski

00:47:40.620 hate

00:47:40.920 each

00:47:41.080 other's 0.75

00:47:41.400 guts 0.93

00:47:41.760 Trump 0.98

00:47:42.580 blasts

00:47:43.060 Murkowski

00:47:43.520 frequently

00:47:44.260 Murkowski

00:47:44.980 voted to

00:47:45.460 impeach

00:47:45.840 Trump

00:47:46.120 like

00:47:46.320 it's

00:47:46.500 bad

00:47:46.740 blood

00:47:46.960 on

00:47:47.120 both

00:47:47.360 sides

00:47:47.780 here's

00:47:51.720 the

00:47:51.880 one

00:47:52.140 request

00:47:52.600 I'm

00:47:52.840 going

00:47:52.920 to

00:47:52.980 make

00:47:53.180 of

00:47:53.280 Alaskans

00:47:53.920 if

00:47:56.540 you

00:47:56.660 vote

00:47:56.960 for

00:47:58.660 Chewbacca 0.99

00:48:08.160 now

00:48:08.920 that

00:48:09.140 may

00:48:09.320 be

00:48:09.460 hard

00:48:09.880 because

00:48:10.280 they're

00:48:10.680 beating

00:48:11.140 the 0.97

00:48:11.360 hell

00:48:16.720 both

00:48:17.140 at

00:48:17.940 around

00:48:18.280 40

00:48:18.800 and

00:48:43.840 a

00:48:44.040 piece

00:48:44.240 of

00:48:44.640 that

00:48:44.800 we

00:48:47.440 by

00:48:48.300 the

00:48:48.440 way

00:48:48.660 the

00:48:49.120 way

00:48:49.460 it

00:49:34.560 40%

00:49:35.120 voted

00:49:35.380 for

00:49:35.520 the

00:49:35.940 what

00:49:37.380 happened

00:49:37.940 though

00:49:38.320 is

00:49:38.620 when

00:49:38.800 they

00:49:39.020 redistributed

00:49:40.080 the

00:49:40.260 votes

00:49:40.680 more

00:49:50.400 one

00:49:50.760 House

00:49:51.120 seat

00:49:51.460 so

00:49:51.600 it's

00:49:51.720 the

00:49:51.820 same

00:49:51.980 as

00:49:52.120 the

00:49:52.380 it's

00:49:52.680 statewide

00:49:53.040 we

00:49:54.240 saw

00:49:54.600 a

00:49:56.600 for

00:49:57.160 this

00:49:57.400 to

00:49:57.580 happen

00:49:57.900 look

00:49:58.180 if

00:49:58.380 Murkowski

00:49:59.080 and

00:49:59.320 Chewbacca 0.99

00:49:59.640 are

00:49:59.780 one

00:49:59.960 and

00:50:00.100 two

00:50:00.380 that's

00:50:02.700 fine

00:50:03.080 then it

00:50:03.500 will

00:50:07.380 getting

00:50:07.500 reallocated

00:50:08.560 and you

00:50:08.780 have to

00:50:09.160 assume

00:50:09.500 almost

00:50:09.800 all of

00:50:10.180 those

00:50:10.340 go to

00:50:10.600 Murkowski

00:50:11.020 the

00:50:12.580 danger

00:50:13.260 is

00:50:14.760 if

00:50:15.100 one

00:50:15.420 and

00:50:15.620 two

00:50:15.940 is

00:50:16.260 either

00:50:16.840 Murkowski

00:50:19.360 and

00:50:19.520 the

00:50:19.620 Democrat

00:50:19.940 or

00:50:20.720 Chewbacca 0.99

00:50:21.540 and

00:50:21.680 the

00:50:21.780 Democrat

00:50:22.140 that

00:50:24.240 if

00:50:24.740 one

00:50:25.100 of

00:50:25.220 the

00:50:25.340 Republicans

00:50:25.800 is

00:50:26.280 third

00:50:26.860 and

00:50:27.980 if

00:50:28.140 they

00:50:28.420 hate

00:50:28.780 the

00:50:28.960 other

00:50:29.160 Republicans

00:50:29.640 so

00:50:29.960 much

00:50:30.240 that

00:50:30.380 they

00:50:30.520 all

00:50:30.840 put

00:50:31.020 the

00:50:31.180 Democrat

00:50:31.520 as

00:50:31.700 their

00:50:31.820 second

00:50:32.080 choice

00:50:32.540 we

00:50:34.040 could

00:50:34.380 wake

00:50:34.740 up

00:50:35.060 and

00:50:35.280 find

00:50:35.720 out

00:50:35.980 that

00:50:36.160 we

00:50:36.320 have

00:50:36.520 a

00:50:36.740 Schumer

00:50:37.100 Democrat

00:50:37.660 Senate

00:50:38.080 because

00:50:39.780 let's

00:50:40.260 say

00:50:40.400 we

00:50:40.540 won

00:50:40.760 Nevada

00:50:41.100 and

00:50:41.300 lost

00:50:41.520 Alaska

00:50:41.940 that

00:50:42.680 would

00:50:42.880 be

00:50:43.020 a

00:50:43.180 terrible

00:50:43.440 outcome

00:50:43.960 we

00:50:44.380 don't

00:50:44.500 want

00:50:44.680 that

00:50:44.800 to

00:50:44.880 happen

00:50:45.040 the

00:50:45.200 one

00:50:45.420 other

00:50:45.640 I

00:50:45.780 want

00:50:45.900 to

00:50:46.000 mention

00:50:46.200 that

00:50:46.340 we've

00:50:46.560 talked

00:50:46.800 about

00:50:47.040 on

00:50:47.140 this

00:50:47.280 podcast

00:50:47.720 before

00:50:48.060 is

00:50:48.260 Utah

00:50:48.640 Utah

00:50:49.640 is

00:50:50.000 dangerous

00:50:50.540 it's

00:50:50.920 typically

00:50:51.340 a

00:50:51.540 red

00:50:51.720 state

00:50:52.120 Mike

00:50:52.860 Lee

00:50:53.180 who

00:50:53.480 is

00:50:53.920 a

00:50:54.560 phenomenal

00:50:55.200 senator

00:50:55.700 a

00:50:56.000 rock

00:50:56.300 rib

00:50:56.500 conservative

00:50:57.100 a

00:50:57.340 constitutional

00:50:57.940 conservative

00:50:58.540 who

00:50:59.060 closest

00:50:59.400 friend

00:50:59.780 in

00:51:00.460 Senate

00:51:00.720 the

00:51:01.600 Democrats

00:51:02.000 are

00:51:02.280 running

00:51:02.500 a

00:51:02.680 profoundly

00:51:03.120 dishonest

00:51:03.720 campaign

00:51:04.180 with

00:51:05.380 a

00:51:05.560 fake

00:51:05.960 independent

00:51:06.560 Evan

00:51:06.880 McMullin

00:51:07.380 he

00:51:08.160 he's

00:51:08.460 supported

00:51:08.780 by

00:51:08.980 the

00:51:09.120 Democrats

00:51:09.460 he's

00:51:09.740 funded

00:51:09.940 by

00:51:10.140 the

00:51:10.300 Democrats

00:51:10.720 he's

00:51:11.180 going

00:51:11.580 with

00:51:11.740 the

00:51:12.460 going

00:51:12.620 to

00:51:12.720 support

00:51:13.080 the

00:51:13.260 Democrats

00:51:13.620 but

00:51:14.440 he's

00:51:14.680 pretending

00:51:15.220 to

00:51:15.460 the

00:51:15.620 Utah

00:51:15.920 voters

00:51:17.460 he's

00:51:17.620 an

00:51:17.740 independent

00:51:18.240 and

00:51:18.500 the

00:51:18.640 danger

00:51:19.020 is

00:51:19.380 there

00:51:53.820 he

00:52:01.600 he

00:52:01.780 is

00:52:01.920 a

00:52:02.320 but

00:52:03.760 their

00:52:04.200 deceptive

00:52:04.760 plan

00:52:05.060 is

00:52:06.260 for

00:52:06.540 him

00:52:06.660 and

00:52:06.780 just

00:52:07.000 get

00:52:07.280 5-10%

00:52:08.360 of

00:52:09.120 the

00:52:09.260 really

00:52:09.560 moderate

00:52:10.000 R's 1.00

00:52:10.620 who

00:52:11.280 say

00:52:11.500 gosh

00:52:11.840 he

00:52:12.000 seems

00:52:12.300 like

00:52:12.520 a

00:52:12.660 nice

00:52:12.900 young

00:52:13.160 man

00:52:13.560 and

00:52:14.600 so

00:52:14.980 we'll

00:52:15.260 go

00:52:15.440 with

00:52:15.680 him

00:52:16.120 and

00:52:16.900 they

00:52:17.080 could

00:52:17.260 steal

00:52:17.600 that

00:52:17.880 seat

00:52:18.180 and

00:52:18.360 so

00:52:18.720 Utah

00:52:19.320 Utah

00:52:21.120 matters

00:52:21.680 I

00:52:22.440 think

00:52:22.900 Mike

00:52:23.160 will

00:52:23.380 win

00:52:23.780 but

00:54:06.200 I think

00:54:06.720 it's

00:54:06.880 irresponsible

00:54:07.360 to say 0.87

00:54:07.680 Americans

00:56:25.260 now

00:56:25.780 what

00:56:35.160 policies

00:56:35.740 Senator

00:56:36.660 those are

00:56:37.320 the lies

00:56:37.820 that's

00:56:38.440 what this

00:56:38.820 election

00:56:39.220 is clearly

00:56:39.960 about

00:56:40.400 and this

00:56:41.020 is what

00:56:41.380 people

00:56:41.740 need to

00:56:42.180 sit

00:56:42.540 back

00:56:42.900 and think

00:56:43.360 about

00:56:43.620 and tell

00:56:44.000 their

00:56:44.160 family

00:56:44.420 and friends

00:56:44.920 before

00:56:45.760 they head

00:56:46.280 to the

00:56:46.520 ballot box

00:56:47.020 before

00:56:47.360 they go

00:56:47.840 and show

00:56:48.160 up to

00:56:48.400 vote

00:56:48.620 before

00:56:48.900 you're

00:56:49.120 doing

00:56:49.280 your

00:56:49.420 early

00:56:49.960 voting

00:56:50.340 they've

00:56:51.380 been

00:56:51.500 lying

00:56:51.820 to you

00:56:52.120 on

00:56:52.240 all

00:56:52.780 of

00:56:52.940 these

00:56:53.140 issues

00:56:53.560 there

00:56:54.200 are

00:56:54.340 three

00:56:54.540 more

00:56:54.840 that

00:56:55.000 were

00:56:55.120 not

00:56:55.340 included

00:56:55.720 there

00:56:55.980 that

00:56:56.140 are

00:56:56.240 really

00:56:56.460 striking

00:56:56.900 number

00:56:57.160 one

00:56:57.460 Kareem Jean-Pierre said

00:56:58.680 from the podium

00:56:59.240 at the White House

00:57:00.100 nobody is walking

00:57:01.820 across the border

00:57:02.520 that simply isn't

00:57:03.440 happening

00:57:03.800 that's a flat out

00:57:04.620 lie

00:57:04.980 number two

00:57:06.220 Kareem Jean-Pierre said

00:57:07.440 again from the podium

00:57:08.340 of the White House

00:57:08.980 said it was

00:57:09.440 Republicans

00:57:09.880 who wanted

00:57:10.280 to shut 0.69

00:57:10.600 down

00:57:10.820 schools

00:57:11.140 and it's

00:57:11.480 Democrats

00:57:11.840 who've been

00:57:12.180 working to

00:57:12.560 open schools

00:57:13.180 which is

00:57:14.100 such a

00:57:14.700 brazen

00:57:15.440 gaslighting

00:57:16.480 monstrosity

00:57:17.420 it made

00:57:18.080 you wonder

00:57:18.520 if lightning

00:57:18.960 was going

00:57:19.280 to strike 0.87

00:57:19.700 her 0.99

00:57:19.840 if she

00:57:20.060 stood

00:57:20.360 there

00:57:20.680 and number

00:57:21.680 three

00:57:21.960 just last

00:57:22.580 week

00:57:22.840 Joe

00:57:23.100 Biden

00:57:23.500 who

00:57:23.720 gave a

00:57:24.820 speech

00:57:25.120 I assume

00:57:25.580 written

00:57:25.920 in the

00:57:26.260 speech

00:57:26.640 where he

00:57:27.000 says

00:57:27.280 I brought

00:57:28.220 down

00:57:28.560 gas

00:57:28.900 prices

00:57:29.340 and he

00:57:29.720 said

00:57:29.960 when I

00:57:30.640 became

00:57:31.040 president

00:57:31.580 gas

00:57:32.000 prices

00:57:32.400 were

00:57:32.640 $5

00:57:33.000 a gallon

00:57:33.780 now

00:57:34.320 they're

00:57:34.540 $3.38

00:57:35.140 of course

00:57:35.620 when he

00:57:35.840 became

00:57:36.080 president

00:57:36.520 gas

00:57:37.120 prices

00:57:37.520 were $2.38

00:57:38.760 and the

00:57:40.320 idea that

00:57:41.000 they were

00:57:41.280 $5 a gallon

00:57:42.320 even for

00:57:43.920 the world

00:57:44.540 of Democrats

00:57:45.540 lying with

00:57:46.440 the corporate

00:57:46.900 media

00:57:47.320 helping them

00:57:48.100 I don't know

00:57:49.240 how every

00:57:49.700 quote fact

00:57:50.200 checker

00:57:50.520 in America

00:57:50.940 didn't

00:57:51.280 fact check

00:57:51.740 them

00:57:52.260 but of

00:57:52.880 course

00:57:53.140 they didn't

00:57:53.760 yeah

00:57:53.980 it's gonna

00:57:54.380 be fun

00:57:54.700 to see

00:57:55.340 of these

00:57:55.660 videos

00:57:59.840 fact

00:58:48.280 the same

00:58:48.680 thing

00:58:48.980 that this

00:58:49.540 podcast

00:58:49.920 does

00:58:50.380 which is

00:58:51.320 that it

00:58:51.620 tries to

00:58:52.220 take people

00:58:52.920 behind the

00:58:53.580 curtain

00:58:53.800 it tries

00:58:54.240 to take

00:58:54.640 people

00:58:55.040 to understand

00:58:56.280 what's

00:58:56.720 really going

00:59:00.000 look

00:59:01.140 the human

00:59:01.560 mind

00:59:02.040 memory

00:59:02.540 that we

00:59:03.300 exist in

00:59:04.220 a world

00:59:04.640 of stories
