[00:01:31]

Joe, how are you today? Fine, sir.

[00:01:33]

Well, you know, I'm doing pretty good at the time of this recording, but I'm sure I'll get better at at the time of this. That's an inside joke, Joe. The very funny I like to do. Very good. Maybe I'll explain that to you. Something has a lot to do with our terrestrial radio footprint. All right. One more programming note before I get to our sponsors, get through the show. We are loaded today. That was I didn't expect that, by the way, either.

[00:01:57]

Lucy, I just want you to know, is out of the cage running around out of little Candlebox. So just in case she starts eating the wires for the show and the show goes down, blame it on Lucy because it was her fault. So tomorrow, not to involve you unnecessarily, but you are my audience. I love you to death. I have I have I have a surgery again tomorrow. I'm really getting tired of getting cut open and poked and prodded.

[00:02:21]

I have to have a surgery in the morning for the the whole cancer thing. And you can call that a thingy? I guess. So when it's yours, you can go to somebody whatever you want. So the cancer thing. Yes, kind of a little obstacle. I have to have a port put in my chest tomorrow morning. What's a. Bad timing. Yeah, no kidding. So I have to do that tomorrow in the morning, Dr.

[00:02:42]

Todd, good man. Going to help me out. So what I'm going to do is early in the morning before the procedure, I'm going to record the second half of the show. I just don't want to spin your wheels. It'll be timely. But in order to stay on top of the news and because I don't want to dial it in for you at all, when I get back from the surgery, I'm going to record the first half of the show because I know they'll be breaking news while I'm underneath the whole anesthesia thing.

[00:03:03]

So tomorrow's show will be interesting. Will be the first time we've done that. Don't miss it. All right. Let's get to it.

[00:03:09]

Today's show brought to you by our friends and I target this year's reminded us of many things, including how important it is to look after the ones we love. The holiday this holiday season give the gift of safety accuracy the most important self defense. Give them I target for most of us don't have the time to train consistently at the range. They didn't think it gets expensive. You can go to the range by the time we got to clean up you to go that we have all the covid stuff.

[00:03:30]

Now, what if I told you you could train in your house the safety of your own home with a proprietary app and laze around? You can I target proud, ladies and gentlemen, I get tons of feedback on this, it's a laser around it you inserted in the firearm you have now, you don't have to make any changes to it. Then when you depress the trigger and your drive firing that lays around emits a laser onto a target, it comes you can download the app and you can see exactly where the rounds were.

[00:03:55]

What people love this system. Today, you can save 10 percent plus get free shipping with the offer Codan a checkout when you go to target ProComp it is the smartest, best way for you to listen. If you don't have good marksmanship, you own a firearm. It's a waste of time. It's a waste of time. This holiday season. Give the gift that is a that.

[00:04:15]

It's a target. I target Broadcom. I target Broadcom. That's the letter. I target pro dot com Yusoff. For Codan it comes in all major calibres, including two to three and five five six. You can stay sharp with almost any firearm. Again I target pro dot com Yusoff Cordona.

[00:04:30]

Right, so let's go. Who do we got? I'm taking notes so I don't forget we have a lot going on today. Ladies and gentlemen, let's get the story number one. No more Mr. Nice Guy. I'm sorry if you're not down for this fight, you're one of these, you know, Republicans ready to surrender this fight already. Then you are not one of our Republicans. Please beat it. Exit quietly and don't let the door hit you in the arse on the way out.

[00:04:55]

This is time to fight. This race is not over. I'm not willing to concede it's over. And if you are, which are most of you? My audience aren't even even bad. Who emailed me, emailed me back saying you're right. Then it's time to. Drop the diapers and get back in the fight. Thank you, Ben. I told you, you want to give up. Go ahead. I'm not. Thank you. Folks, this happened to me left steals elections all the time, it happened to me directly when I ran for Congress in Maryland District six, we won the race on Election Day.

[00:05:25]

We were up by a nor an enormous number of votes, relatively speaking. We found out the next day that a bunch of absentee counts had come in and we were losing them dramatically and all of a sudden somehow I was losing the race. The race got called about four or five days later, of course, we wound up losing that race. But what's fascinating is we only lost by a couple thousand votes. And what was really Joe remembers this really well, what was really interesting about that race, which we had, by the way, the polls said we were down twenty to twenty five.

[00:05:55]

So you can throw polls out the window to would have been the biggest congressional upset the country is. We found out later that even though we lost by two thousand votes, upwards of ten thousand plus people voted in that election. Who told the judge, jury duty folks when they were scheduled for jury duty that they weren't citizens? Wow, that's weird because only citizens can vote. Listen, it's over. I lost whatever I moved on. But you know what?

[00:06:19]

I regret not fighting that now.

[00:06:22]

I do, Paula said to me when you tell that story, because it's one of the great regrets of my life, you know, we decided to play nice and play cutesy and we don't want to sound like sour grapes. And, you know, well, we'll live to fight another day. And I regret that now. And I'm not going to make that same mistake twice with the president's election. And either is the president of the United States, if we lose this race fair and square with every legal vote, and that's fine, I will not be donning a pink hat, burning down a building and beating the living crap out of my neighbors.

[00:06:58]

I'm not a leftist. I will go to work the next day like many of you, and we'll fight for the midterms. And in twenty twenty four. Got it. We're not leftist lunatics, but until you can show me we actually lost this race, the fight goes on right now. And if you're not down for that fight, exit stage left and please don't talk to anybody else on the way out because I don't want your weakness to infect anyone else.

[00:07:27]

Not lecturing you, my audience, folks, you all are great, but there are some people out there already ready to give this up. So as my awesome grandmother, God rest her soul, Eileen Saddler used to say, hold your horses, Daniel. Hold your horses. Arizona is back.

[00:07:43]

A little down on Arizona yesterday, not you Republicans out there who voted, but the Arizonans, Cindy McCain and others who. Screwed us up in the state and. We'll leave that for another day. This race shouldn't even be close, but it is in Arizona. Arizona's back look at this Arizona central article, ladies and gentlemen, a major traunch of votes came in last night. In latest batch, Trump gets a share of votes he would need to reclaim Arizona.

[00:08:11]

How's that possible? Fox News already called the decision desk. Weird, isn't it? But next, rounds of ballots present new challenges.

[00:08:21]

Folks, Arizona is still in play. I don't care who, why or when Arizona was, quote, called I'm uncoiling Arizona and I don't care where you work or what you said or who called it, this race is still in play and anyone telling you otherwise is lying to you. Is the path likely for President Trump to win Arizona? Probably not. Is it possible? Is it highly unlikely? No. Is it possible? Yes, it is.

[00:08:48]

Let's look at the screenshot from the Arizona. Where's the.

[00:08:54]

She's roaming around, what's she doing? OK, all right, I know I know the dog, you know, she's roaming around. She's going to eat my one of my my feet or something like that. The dog chews on everything, including toes. Arizona central article. Trump won the batches of ballots from Maricopa County, counted Wednesday and early Thursday by a roughly 50 740 margin over former Vice President Biden. Those votes likely early ballots sent to the county on Monday and Tuesday, narrowed by Biden's lead over Trump in Arizona to sixty eight thousand votes when his lead had been more than 90 thousand votes earlier Wednesday.

[00:09:26]

Here we go. Listen, listen, listen. Paul Bents, a Republican pollster with the consulting firm HighGround, said Trump needs to win fifty seven point six of the four hundred and seventy thousand votes that the Arizona Republic estimates remain to be counted. Quote, That's almost exactly what he got in the first batch. Ben said he could do it. Ladies and gentlemen, the gap is closing now, to be clear, because we're not going to do Pollyanna stuff, we're not going to give you unrealistic estimates of what happened that aren't timely at the time of this recording.

[00:10:00]

This is what's going on right now. Stuff is changing by the minute.

[00:10:03]

All right. So, yeah, I heard you, I don't think I don't listen to producer José. We still need Pennsylvania no matter what, but you're talking about Arizona. I am, but Arizona won't matter if we lose Pennsylvania. And I need to be crystal clear that we need Pennsylvania no matter what. I get to Pennsylvania. What's going on there in a moment. Having said that, Arizona had a larger tranche of outstanding votes than we were led to believe when the decision desk at FOX called it the other day.

[00:10:34]

Everybody gets why that matters is the smartest audience in the business. If you're telling me Trump is down by four hundred thousand votes and there's only a one hundred thousand votes outstanding, you can pretty much call the race, right. If you're telling me Trump is down by a hundred thousand votes and there's four hundred thousand votes outstanding, the dipsy do flip Jaroussky flip flipper, risky dipsy do ski, all of a sudden we got a whole different scenario. No, no.

[00:11:01]

The verdict is in, math wins. She's mad at me now because I worry about the dog, I could tell. I know my wife better than anybody in the business. I just do this. Just do the show. Don't worry. But the dog eat the dog's part of the show now. It's the greatest part of the show. You've been let into my whole life. If there are four hundred thousand votes outstanding and President Trump's only down by 100000, arithmetic wins the day every time.

[00:11:26]

We can win this in Arizona. I don't care that the decision desk at Fox called it, I don't work for the decision desk, I work for Fox. There are people at Fox who don't agree with the call. You heard it on the air. Am I giving you inside information? The decision desk can do what they want. That call should be retracted immediately. I'm really sorry now what's the path I told you yesterday the path was Pennsylvania and Nevada.

[00:11:52]

That is a viable path. If Pennsylvania and Nevada go our way in Nevada, we're only down eight thousand votes in Nevada. If Pennsylvania and Nevada go our way, we don't need Arizona. Having said that, I really don't want to lose Arizona either, regardless if we need them or not. Arizona should be a red state. I don't understand why people fleeing California to move to Arizona are voting for the same things that they fled California to get away from.

[00:12:17]

That doesn't make any sense to me. Joe, does it make sense to you at all? No, it doesn't. It doesn't have it in it. So California sucks so bad you flee to Arizona to get away from it and then you vote in the same stuff you were fleeing from. Don't don't get that don't quite understand that it's like the Marylanders who moved away from Maryland to move into Virginia and then move to Virginia and made Virginia blue, just like Maryland.

[00:12:42]

Now people are fleeing Virginia back to Maryland. So just to be clear, before we wrap up what's going on in Arizona, Arizona right now, right now, at the time we record this is in play, I don't care what anyone else tells you as it mean we're going to win it. No. Does it mean it's possible we could win it? Yes, likely. I'm not sure. We still need Pennsylvania either way, if we win Pennsylvania and Nevada, we do not need to win Arizona.

[00:13:10]

It would, in fact, be nice, but we don't need it. Here's the issue, though, in Arizona, again, before we wrap up, so you have a full spectrum analysis of what's going on, that initial traunch we saw of one hundred thousand votes went heavily for Trump and cut substantially into Biden's lead in Arizona. The remaining traunch of votes may not go as high lead for President Trump as they did before because they're thought to be potentially earlier male submission votes.

[00:13:40]

Why does that matter? That matters because the votes that were dropped off by air quotes, mail on Election Day were likely Trump voters who tend to vote later the voters who submitted their votes early by mail. Jojo, check me here. It doesn't make says early or by mail were thought to be Democrat Biden voters who got their votes in early, really early in the process. Makes sense. So that's why I'm optimistic. Arizona, there could be something could happen.

[00:14:12]

But I'm not I don't want to get crazy here. We'll see what happens with the rest of those votes. Responsible coverage matters here. I'll say again, the decision desk castrates in this call, retract this call right now. Here is what I'm worried about, ladies and gentlemen. But I'm worried that they could be wrong. To what I don't understand, what's the hurry? What's not what's the hurry? I don't get what to hurry, I don't understand what the hurry is.

[00:14:39]

The presidential electors don't have to certify until December 14th and the safe harbor date when we have to make a rough decision by December 8th. So what's the rush? I mean, I understand you want to count every legal vote in Pennsylvania where Biden's down, but we don't want to count every legal vote in Arizona. I don't care what's come, what's the rush? Why the rush to call the state? I don't know. I'm missing this. They must rescind that call.

[00:15:06]

Let me explain to you what I think is going on here. With the media in general. They are eager, as I explained to you yesterday. I hate repeating points in a show, but this point is critical. They understood in the 2000 Bush Gore recount, George W. Bush, Al Gore, everybody remembers the recount dragged on until December. The Supreme Court of the United States had to get involved and stop it. The Democrats learned a lesson from that, the lesson they learned, Haroen, the lesson they learned from that is when you lose the political debate and people accept an ingrained in their head.

[00:15:48]

That one candidate is one, it becomes increasingly difficult in the courts to overwhelm the political pressure from the media, from the courts to rule one way, it's everybody get that. Don't think for a second justices on the Supreme Court within states and within the United States Supreme Court at the circuit and appellate level, aren't subjected to political pressure. They are not going to want to overtly overcome a political outcome. So if the media calls Arizona early. Arizona's in the bag, right, they call Arizona early, and Joe Biden wins Nevada today and they call Biden as president.

[00:16:28]

The political pressure to not overturn a false call is going to be overwhelming, does it, Paula? That makes sense. Sorry, Joe.

[00:16:34]

I don't mean to say no, no, no, cut you out as ombudsman, but sometimes I need a second opinion, Dr.. Once it's ingrained in the public psyche that Biden is the president, even if he's not the judges and the justices, the Supreme Court and judges all over the country are going to be very, very scared, scared to overturn that. The Democrats figured that out in a Bush v. Gore election where Gore at no point, at no point ever.

[00:17:02]

Don't listen to your liberal friends. They don't know anything. At no point ever did Al Gore overcome Bush's lead in Florida. No point. There was never a vote count on any recount ever. And there were many where Gore was in the lead, not one. And that killed them because Gore can never claim he won Florida. You know why he couldn't claim that, Joe, why do you think because he didn't. He didn't. Biden has a separate issue.

[00:17:31]

Biden is ahead in these vote counts in Arizona, Nevada. I'm not suggesting he's going to remain ahead, but the minute the media and the politicians can declare him president, whether he's ahead or not. Oh, they will, and it's going to create a major, major headache for us in the courts, even if Biden later on. That's why the retraction from the decision desk is critical. We don't know yet. I know what you're thinking over there.

[00:18:01]

It's OK. It's OK. Over there, I'm talking about the Paul area, that's he's the queen of that area, I don't even go over there. I'm not even allowed. You need a visa to go over there. Let's move on to Pennsylvania, because if we don't win Pennsylvania, it's over. Now, explain to me again, I'm just kind of curious, Joe, this is a weird one, how Florida, a state that has a dramatically larger population than Pennsylvania, managed to wrap up its vote count on election.

[00:18:26]

And we're pretty much we're done down here. We got a victory in Florida for Pennsylvania with a much smaller population, is counting votes to win Christmas. When are we going to get a vote? You can't figure this out. Of course, it's the state run by a Democrat governor. It's not your fault. Pencil Pennsylvanians. It's your governor who's a left wing lunatic. They can't figure out, of course, how to count votes in Pennsylvania, which is quite embarrassing.

[00:18:48]

But what's going on in Pennsylvania right now? If we don't have Pennsylvania, we have nothing. Again, I can't say that enough. It doesn't matter if we win Nevada and Arizona, we lose Pennsylvania. Game over. We're up in Pennsylvania and magically, Joe, the count goes on and Pennsylvania can't seem to figure this out, this whole voting countermands is really weird.

[00:19:06]

Yeah, at the time this is recorded. Yeah. At The Washington Examiner article, because I want to explain to you the chaos in Pennsylvania, what's going to wind up happening. And how this ties into what's happening in North Carolina, did we get crazy? North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Arizona, there's a lot going on. Ladies and gentlemen, we got a lot of pieces to screw together here. Washington Examiner Jerry Donlevy Trump campaign seeks Supreme Court intervention in Pennsylvania.

[00:19:34]

Mail in ballot case. What's going on in Pennsylvania? Please read the show notes today, Bunshiro dot com slash newsletter, the newsletter is the show notes, please. I have it all laid out for you today. You read today's show not. You'll have a full grasp of what's going on. This case. This story's in their. What's happening in Pennsylvania is. The law, the written law in Pennsylvania, election law passed and certified is that if a ballot is not received by Election Day at 8:00 p.m. Eastern Time.

[00:20:07]

By election officials, that ballot is not valid, does everybody understand? That is eight o'clock, eight p.m. Election Day or election night copy? Yeah, the Supreme Court in Pennsylvania. Jumped in and said, no, no, which is dominated by leftists, the Pennsylvania Supreme Court said, no, no, no, we're going to change that to as long as it's postmarked by Election Day, the ballot, you can receive the ballot up to three days later and it still counts.

[00:20:37]

There's a problem with that, Joe. The problem is that's not what the law said. And if you want to rewrite the Pennsylvania election law. You do you, but you have to actually, Joe, this is crazy, you have to actually rewrite Pennsylvania election law. I know that's insane to liberal. You're like, what do you mean we can't just make it up on the fly? No, you can. But then the courts. Yes, I will respond to you.

[00:21:05]

But liberals, the Constitution, the Constitution is crystal clear that election law will be written by wait for Joe state legislatures. Oh, my gosh. Not courts. Yes, that's right. The Trump campaign, if they lose Pennsylvania, do too, not not legally counted ballots, in other words, ballots that are illegally cast after 8:00 p.m. on Election Day. Again, the whole law thing I know gets in the way. By the way, those are if Republicans didn't get their vote in by 8:00 p.m. in Pennsylvania, your vote shouldn't count even.

[00:21:40]

Oh, let me be crystal clear. We lose fair and square to the legal votes, fine. I'm not like a Democrat, only count don't know, let's only count Biden votes, screw the whole, you know, vote for the other guy thing, think they're taking the case to the Supreme Court, the Trump campaign. And what they're going to do is Pennsylvania has now moved ballots received after 8pm on Election Day into a separate pile. If the Trump campaign loses Pennsylvania and the numbers are there to show that they lost due to ballots cast.

[00:22:11]

Follow me here after 8:00 p.m., which is against Pennsylvania law. They will win that case in the Supreme Court. The US Supreme Court, make no mistake. OK, well, I shouldn't say that because as John Roberts make maybe a little drop or so, even though we got Amy CONI Barrett. Now, let me let me rephrase that. I'm confident we will win that case in the Supreme Court. Having said that. I've spoken to some people on the Trump team, if we lose Pennsylvania by an amount that exceeds the amount of ballots received after eight p.m. on Election Day, they doubt the Supreme Court will take the case because it wouldn't technically overturn the Pennsylvania outcome.

[00:22:49]

Everybody tracking now. We're good. We're good.

[00:22:52]

I'm reasonably confident. Even if we lose air quotes, lose Pennsylvania due to illegally cast votes, that we still have an avenue in the Supreme Court because again, if we don't win Pennsylvania at this point, this race is over time for lullabies. One more point, we'll get to our second sponsor here. What does this all have to do with North Carolina at all, which. Arizona was still counting Nevada, we're still counting Pennsylvania, where counting, but we still have the court option.

[00:23:26]

And by the way, the Supreme Court has already said keep those after 8pm ballots on the side because we may rule on this later, even though John Roberts abandoned us earlier on this, North Carolina came out yesterday and said, hey, by the way, we're not going to finish our counting because North Carolina has not been certified yet and no winners been called call by the by the decision desk or others. We're not going to stop. We're not going to restart our counting and give you a number until November 12th.

[00:23:56]

Why do you why do you think anyone, anyone here in the Paula Jones, anyone have a theory? You have a theory. No, no, no. Good guess I have a theory on why North Carolina need you to explain. OK, let me tell you this. What I'm here for don't worry, folks. Sometimes I throw pop quizzes. It's OK. North Carolina is run by a Democrat right now. It's a largely Republican state, but it's run by a lunatic Democrat governor.

[00:24:22]

And sadly, Democrats have a lot of power in North Carolina. On a power to do things that are unethical, I have a theory on this, and I think from what I'm hearing from my sources on the ground, I'm pretty right. The Democrats are now panicking that Arizona may flip to the Trump column. They were also panicking that they may not have enough votes. In Pennsylvania to overcome Trump's lead. Trump wins Pennsylvania and Arizona, Trump wins a second term.

[00:24:54]

Oh, but that second term and that wind cannot be certified without North Carolina. Ladies and gentlemen, I'm telling you back on it, President Trump won North Carolina. Everybody knows it. Strangely enough, though, nobody's calling North Carolina because there's still just a few outstanding votes they could count tomorrow. You see the game they're playing here. You don't see it. It doesn't make sense, Paul is saying no. OK, OK. They're playing two games, the Democrats, because they're smart.

[00:25:32]

Devious, but smart. They know President Trump could have won this election. They know they have to create political pressure either way, if President Trump won or lost to get Biden in office. How do you do that? You have news outlets declare states in the race are over no matter what. They'll stop the counting and move on or they'll count. But this is what they'll do. They'll they will declare the race politically over. They'll be political pressure.

[00:25:57]

Democrats will take it to the courts. They think they can win this thing no matter what. If Trump wins because they certify North Carolina early and Trump wins Arizona and Pennsylvania. The political pressure is gone. You have a Bush v. Gore scenario. So they're probably hinting, winking and nodding to North Carolina, hey, you need to buy us time, because if Trump wins Pennsylvania, Arizona and North Carolina, it's over. We don't have the political pressure.

[00:26:22]

You get it by this time. Don't count until November 12th. Buy us some time here if you can buy us some time to create reverse political pressure back to Biden, do a lawsuit or something else you're buying us to. That is why North Carolina is holding out my theory. Is it makes sense now? The Democrats need to buy time in case Arizona, Nevada and Pennsylvania flip. And it can't be certified without certifying North Carolina for Trump, which everybody knows they won.

[00:26:55]

So he had all these media people pre certifying the outcome in Arizona for Biden and holding off certifying the known outcome for Trump in North Carolina. So they have a relief pitcher in the bullpen, Justin K.. All right, loaded show, they got a lot more. Let me get to my second sponsor day, our friends at Almanac's, which is come in very handy. I've been going through buckets, gallons of this stuff. Oh, Max. Ladies and gentlemen.

So folks, let's move on. That's the election count update important. You need this information. Second, let's go to because we got it. Listen, we got a war game. This, OK? We have to do. Yeah, yeah. Any of you.

[00:29:45]

I went to business school SWOT analysis, strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, threats. You remember that we'd be idiots not to tactically game this out. The left is doing it for us. So however painful it may be if if big if I have it underlined we capitals I f double underlies. If Biden wins, what happens. We have to game it out. I am not conceding anything, anything, anything. I'm just saying if he wins, what happens here is some good news.

[00:30:11]

Now, good news if he wins, but the good news is if Biden pulls this out, ladies and gentlemen, this is the lamest of lame and lame ducks you have ever seen. Listen, folks, it's obvious it's not personal. I'm not mad at the guy for it, but it's obvious Joe Biden does not have the cognitive capabilities to handle the job of the presidency. Folks, it is obvious. We don't need to pile on there. The man obviously was running the Biden crime family, so his morals and ethics are just disturbing and disgusting.

[00:30:45]

But no one's medical condition like that is in any way an objective should be an object of anyone's humor because it's not. But he is and could be the president of the United States in a few months. And he cannot handle the job. That's number one. But we already know that. Why would he be a lame duck? Let's go to this Axios article, which is important, it'll be up in the show notes today, I don't use axios that often.

[00:31:07]

They have a pretty left wing bent, but when I do, they have something to say that matters. GOP Senate wins wreak havoc on Biden transition plans, folks. Biden would be the lamest of lame ducks. Now, even with this story, I'm going to give you the good news. Bad news. Let me give you the good news first. Cocaine. Mitch could strike again. He could go full cocaine. Mitch, what do I mean by that?

[00:31:29]

From the story, a source close to McConnell tells Axios that a Republican Senate, which looks likely it may be slim, it may be fifty one forty nine, but doesn't look like we're going to lose. The Senate would work with Biden on centrist nominees, but no radical progressives are ones who are controversial with conservatives. The Biden agenda would be severely restricted by GOP control. The source added, quote, This is their quote, not mine, because Daviau but the New York Times may be listening.

[00:32:00]

This is someone else's quote quote, it's going to be armed camps. Little dramatic, but. What are they saying they're. Joe Biden, ladies and gentlemen, to get anyone appointed to his administration, to judgeships and to critical positions needs the Senate to confirm that person. Now, due to Harry Reid's disastrous for the Democrats, that is. Wiping clean of the filibustering of nominees rule. The they now the Senate can stop a nominee, they don't need 60 votes to stop it.

[00:32:38]

That would be a filibuster. They don't need to filibuster anymore. The Senate now can stop a nominee if Joe Biden wins with only 51 votes.

[00:32:49]

What's the problem? Well, if we have 51 votes. All that talk you heard Joe about, oh, Bernie Sanders is going to be whatever secretary of state or the Treasury Secretary, Elizabeth Warren is going to be the secretary of commerce, Susan Rice is going to be whatever the secretary of defense or secretary of state. A lot of those plans go no like Kaisers, so say at the end of the usual suspect. And he was gone. Not only that, if a Supreme Court seat were to open the block that two.

[00:33:25]

So, Michael, you can't block all of them all the time, it's just not going to work, you do have to have some functioning government. But McConnell is going full cocaine, Mitch, apparently, and telling them, listen, if we keep the Senate, you better not send us lunatics. You think Paul is. You think you're going to send us a cabinet, a Bernie Sanders. Liz Warren. The ghost of Che Guevara, you're out of your mind.

[00:33:52]

That's the good news. But we're wired today, as you could tell, I got a busy day today. Here's the bad news, the bad news is if we have fifty one Republican senators. Remember, we don't really have 51. You got your Mitt Romney's you got your Susan Collins is while she was better than the competition, but I'm know they're not real because he got Murkowski, who's always a disaster. You know, MIT alone is I mean, it's more of a Democrat now than anything.

[00:34:27]

You only need to lose one of them, because if it gets to 50 50, who breaks a tie, say, nominates Bernie Sanders for Treasury secretary or some left wing socialist radical psycho. You know how it is. All president's entitled to his people. No, no, that's not what the Constitution says. It doesn't say that at all. Mitt, you're not ready to fight. I don't understand where the left is. Always ratify. Murkowski, now the he resigned title.

[00:34:54]

Anything the president's entitled to name someone, the Senate to confirm them. That's how the Constitution goes. There's no entitlements clause in the Constitution. So we are going to have to approve some people if Biden wins. Here's another reason he's already a lame duck, but if he wins, let's hope he doesn't. The left got crushed during the election and they know it left, got crushed. What do you mean President Trump may have lost. He may have won.

[00:35:28]

Do. But ladies and gentlemen, down ballot was a disaster for them when I tell you that the left. I actually thought they were going to take the Senate by close to six to 10 seats, they didn't take the Senate at all. I'm not kidding. They thought they had a shot at John Cornyn and Texas Republican Lindsey Graham in South Carolina, Mitch McConnell in Kentucky. They spent over three hundred million dollars on those races and a few others and lost every one of them.

[00:35:59]

Every single one. Not only that, Nancy Pelosi. Had these fairy tale like dreams about adding to their Republican excuse me, Democrat majority in the House, not only did they not add, it looks like they're going to lose because there's still a lot of open races. Looks like they're going to lose the Democrats up to 10 seats. Not only that, I'll hopefully get this later or maybe tomorrow. There are a bunch of ballot initiatives where the left went down to.

[00:36:32]

Racial preferences, tax hikes in Illinois. Election Day was a disaster for the left, anyone telling you otherwise is lying. Listen. To be fair. Don't take it from me, take it from people who write with a leftist bent. Look at this article in the week. This is in the show notes, this is worth your time. This is not some conservative, you know, far right outlet here. Damian Linko, the week, quote, The left got crushed.

[00:37:05]

His headline, not mine. So any of your leftist friends taking a celebratory lap on Twitter by Don, see you later. I'm not so sure you realize how bad it was for you on Election Day. You don't even know Biden won yet. But even if he did, at best, the Election Day outcome may come back to haunt you just two years from now while lame duck Biden sits in the White House diddling around, not able to get anything done for you at all.

[00:37:40]

Let's go to the article again, not written by some right winger. Warning the left, hey, this was bad for us. Here's this guy, Damien Linko here, he says, hey, listen, there will be no court packing, no added states, nothing from the toxic progressive fantasy wish list will come anywhere close to passing. Instead, we will have grinding obstructive gridlock. Some will demand Biden push through progressive priorities by executive order. But every time he does, like every incident of urban rioting and looting, every effort to placate the left wing squad in the house, every microtargeting, identity politics, block checks, box checking display of moral preening and finger wagging the country will move closer.

[00:38:21]

Listen to this. To witnessing a conservative backlash that results in Republicans taking control of the House, increasing their margins in the Senate in November of twenty twenty two, rendering the Biden administration even more fully dead in the water. Again, folks, I don't know this guy's politics, but that's some, like, hard right guy. He's telling leftists, hey. What are we taking a victory lap over? Biden has almost no power, even if he is elected, to do anything with the Senate being in Republican hands.

[00:38:56]

Not only that, every executive order issues like Obama did is going to anger the conservative base is going to probably martially Tea Party like backlash in the midterms of twenty twenty two, where we take the House and Senate and then probably lead to us winning back the presidency. Twenty twenty four will be wiped clean all the executive orders and then we have the House and Senate again. Wouldn't that be wonderful?

[00:39:21]

Again, don't mistake this for me, conceding anything, I want a Donald Trump second term more than anything right now, but I don't want you to be depressed today or give up the fight because that's not what the left does. The left was out in their pink hats the day after Trump won, screaming and yelling like lunatics. They won back significant gains in the midterm. That stuff matters. The possibility of a midterm revolt in twenty twenty two, if Biden goes in there and tries to do all this left wing lunatic stuff, is very, very real and the left is very concerned about it.

[00:39:59]

Second, this office saying, hey, maybe this should be a moment of self reflection for us, maybe all this stuff we thought was so wonderful and all this stuff about Trump's a racist white supremacist, he's so terrible. You should repudiate Donald Trump tomorrow. Maybe that we've read this all wrong. Listen to this. Asking the left for a moment of self reflection from this piece in the week. I want you to read this. It's up in the show.

[00:40:19]

Check this out. He says, so, please. Democrats look in the mirror and show a little humility. You're not nearly as self evidently wonderful or widely loved as you'd like to believe. You are not destined to prevail anywhere. You share a country with a large group of people who hate your guts and who aren't going to submit to your rule or go along with your giddy plans to remake the nation in your image. It's time to start acting like you understand this implacable fact and all it implies about the limits of your power and the parameters of the possible.

[00:40:58]

Yeah, Mamen, brother. The leftist thought they had a super majority going into this election, they thought it was going to be a landslide of historic proportions. They were wrong. They were wrong. Now, let me just wrap this segment by telling you no way, the first, I don't believe for a second the left will self reflect on anything. You know what they'll do, Joe? They'll double down on crazy because that's what the left does.

[00:41:24]

And AOC will run to be like speaker of one of the squad members I have, which will lead to a twenty twenty two revolt. No doubt. I don't expect people who don't have common sense, like hard leftists, to start acting like they have common sense anytime soon. All right, let me get to my third sponsor, move on this this you're going to love this or this segment is going to be great. This may run to the end.

[00:41:44]

This is so good. It's about how we need to learn on the right to organize more like the left. You don't have to like them, but you have to admire how they constantly lose political office like they lost the Trump and still seem to win everything. How do we do that?

Onto this article here shows not really heavyweight graphics and stuff today, because this is more a call, a call to action, we need to learn how to organize and fight more like the left.

[00:43:58]

I'm sorry. I wish I wish it were easier. An easier way to tell you that. But we do. I read a great book once by Fred Siegel, it's one of my favorites, Andrew Wilkow loves it, too. It's by Fred Siegel. It's called Revolt against the Masses, and it is a written history of the left. I know sometimes these history books can be dry and boring, but necessary not this book. It's a fascinating history about how the liberal left has always, always hated the middle class.

[00:44:26]

That can't be Danco. Clearly a phrase that wrong. The left party of the little guy. Yeah, we're the party of the poor, the Republicans. The party of the rich. No, no, no, no, no. When you read the book Revolt Against last time I mention this book, by the way, it jumped like one hundred thousand spots on Amazon. So you all are great. I don't get any I have nothing to do with the book about the publisher.

[00:44:48]

I'm just telling you, it's a great book. I promote that people's books more, they promote my Ensenat revolt against the masses. It talks about how the left has always hated the middle class. Always. To talk about rank and file working Democrats, Haiti, I'm talking about the organized radical left has hated you if you were in the middle class for decades, if not centuries. And he talks about all of these. I maybe I owe you a little I do owe you a little explanation as to why that is because I teach the book.

[00:45:21]

Yeah, he goes through in the book in great detail about how early settlers in the United States that that became the radical left this of even today, the ideological lineage of the left always worship the European aristocracy. You know, where you were born at the titles. You are the Duke of Armacost and Scotland. Do you actually know any. Why do I have to why do I have to kiss your ass? Because I'm the Duke. But do you actually have any skills or contribute to say, my skill is I'm the Duke that's in liberals love that because, you know, they have the whole gentleman C thing that liberal if you were the Duke, you'd go to school, you'd get a gentleman C you'd barely show up and you would be deemed the academic elite and you would tell everybody, your little serfs and your servants in the area how how stuff is going to go down.

[00:46:09]

I was going to say something else, but we're on terrestrial radio.

[00:46:13]

Liberals always want that because liberals hate democracy in the middle class. They want to be the aristocracy and they want to be the Duke of Stewart. Where I live in Florida, the Duke of Stewart, they want to be costumed that have their do costume. They they worship the European aristocracy. They hate the fact that the middle class can vote. And vote them out. They want to tell you your car stinks, gasoline is terrible, you should go work in solar panels rather than you dirty fracking workers in a very dirty work is a deplorable, smelly, stinky Wal-Mart.

[00:46:52]

People shop in Wal-Mart. What losers? You need to be like the Duke. The Duke doesn't shop in Wal-Mart. With all you deplorable non deodorant wearing false. That's what the left this one AOC with a fourteen thousand dollar suit on the cover of whatever was Vanity Fair. They hate the middle class, remember, you see when Amazon wanted to move a fourteen thousand or some hundred forty thousand whatever jobs into Queens where I grew up in New York, you will not move that here.

[00:47:30]

I am the Duke of Jackson Heights of the Duchess. They hate you, the left. They've learned to organize against you and the way Siegel describes this triad, the left uses three distinct groups of people to instill power. That's not necessarily legislative power, but cultural power against you. They use the media where they're just straight up leftish congressional committees and activists. Activists push to save the polar bears, you know, like polar bears are dying everywhere. Yeah, it was the activist they put in front of a congressional committee and they showed a picture of a dead pole.

[00:48:09]

Oh, my gosh, the polar bears are dying. And next thing you know, there's a nationwide save. I'm not knocking polar bears. I'm just telling you how it works. They show you a picture of a starving polar bear, everybody thinks, oh, my gosh, the polar bears are dead everywhere and it becomes a national issue. Then the media highlights it. Don't forget the triad media, congressional committees run by liberals in many cases and activists, that's how the left gets an issue into your brain.

[00:48:39]

Save the spackled tooth pelican. You like this facultative pelican is so important, no, no, we're in the middle of a carnival. Maybe that's important, not on speckle to Pelican first. We need to use our own power and figure this out. How do we do it? There's a piece up at the American Conservative is really good. Really good. I want you to read this in the show notes, I want you to print this is a matter of fact.

[00:49:06]

Seriously print it, staple it to every single Tea Party conservative and libertarian group in your neighborhood's front door, how the Right Can Organize Like the Left by David Haines. Oh, this is a doozy. You know, let me get to my last spot, I'm going to go into this piece, but this segment is going to be a keeper forever because it walks you through piece by piece how to do this. Today show finding a sponsor brought to you by our friends at all form, ladies and gentlemen, all four, you may say, gosh, often they can't be as great as Helix matches this.

[00:49:41]

If you've been listen to my show for a while, you probably heard me talk about Helix matches. So I got good news. Helix has gone beyond the bedroom and started making Sofus too, and they're pretty darn awesome. We have one. They just launched a new company called All Four and they're making premium customizable sofas and chairs ship right to your door. All form is the easiest way you can customize the sofa using premium materials at a fraction of the cost of traditional stores.

No tools are even needed. I got an all forms sofa for our daughter.

[00:50:49]

[00:51:30]

So, as I said, we have to learn from the left how to use power outside of elected office. To change the country for the better. So in this piece, the American conservative, they go through it, let's go through lesson number one. The left learned a long time ago, ladies and gentlemen, that if they were going to inflict political, cultural damage on us as conservatives, that they have to inflict material losses. The left makes things painful for us.

[00:52:05]

Really painful. They try. Boycott secondary boycotts. So one of the points the author makes in this piece is. Maybe we should learn to inflict material losses on the left. I'm just throwing the idea out there. Let's go to the piece here. And he says this is a little long, but, man, is this worth your time? The Republicans had the House, the Senate, the presidency for two years, and they didn't consider repealing that law, they're talking about a law that makes it illegal to block access to an abortion clinic or amending it to give public buildings and thoroughfares the same protection as abortion clinics, effectively shutting down.

[00:52:44]

Many left the shenanigans. Keep that up a second, Paul, but in other words, saying, well, that's weird. You're not allowed to block access to an abortion clinic, but you're allowed to block access to just about everywhere else. So the authors say that sounds kind of strange, doesn't it? The Republicans didn't even defund Planned Parenthood. By contrast, Democrats aren't even back in power yet and already making noises about repealing Taft Hartley and allowing unions to use secondary boycotts.

[00:53:12]

That's when activist groups like Sleeping Giants do, when they target companies that advertise on places like Breitbart. Left, listen, listen, this is the takeaway, golden rule number one for the leftists you should pay close attention to. Left know that if your enemy has a successful tactic, make it illegal or impractical, if your friends are hampered by legislation, change it to empower them. That plan powered a Planned Parenthood example is key in that. Ladies and gentlemen, if you want to really impact change.

[00:53:48]

Sometimes voting just isn't enough. When we vote, we need to pressure the politicians on our side. To inflict material losses. On the left, like the left is done to us. They want a boycott. Maybe we should boycott, too. I was against that years ago and spoke out against it. I hate boycotts. I think they're ridiculous and absurd. But if they want to do it and maybe we should do it too, and maybe there'll be a moment when both sides sit down and say this really isn't working because we're both getting crushed right now financially.

[00:54:29]

Why are we funding Planned Parenthood? Why are we funding an organization, terminating life in the womb? Why are we doing that? Why isn't Planned Parenthood suffering material losses from taxpayers? Why why are they still being paid? Fascinating point. Inflict material losses. That's what the left's been doing us forever. Second point. To donors out there. Stop funding all this national stuff all the time, it's great, but your money is better used locally. This is a terrific, terrific point.

[00:55:07]

Quote, If you're a donor to one politician or many don't put quite so much funding into TV commercials for national politicians, instead put money into building infrastructure where you live with your local party and local activists, your money can provide cost effective on ramps for solid new candidates to get their foot in the door. And when it comes to activism, forget about giving tons of money to big national groups, give modest amounts to a few local groups and tell your fellow donors to do the same.

[00:55:33]

Remarkably small amounts of cash and support an activist culture that not only feeds the party, but creates stronger conditions on the ground, not with attention getting stunt, but with careful, thoughtful work. Yes. Yes. Yes. Folks, Michael Bloomberg. Now, far left, this lunatic, he wasn't always that way, spent a hundred million dollars to get Biden elected in Florida. Biden lost in Florida by a historic amount. Paula, how often with the TV commercials for Biden running down here, I live in Florida, not only every commercial break multiple times was in the commercial break and Biden lost by what could be close to four points when the Senate.

[00:56:18]

National money in TV ads. Ladies and gentlemen, you've got to get on TV, you have to be on TV but are largely wasted. Nobody's voting according to a TV commercial. I'm really sorry. Spend that money locally. Let me give you an example of what I mean, I lived in Maryland, Joao's there now. Right now, Maryland is a far, far left state.

[00:56:39]

President Trump lost there by close to 30 points so far left. It's been largely lost to conservatives for a long time. I ran in Maryland twice. There was a group there that fought back against a rain tax. It was a tax on impervious surfaces. How it worked was complicated. I'll leave it for another day.

[00:56:59]

Joe remembers it well. Oh, the rain tax was it made people furious. If you had a flat roof in a warehouse, you got a tax bill for something like 20, 30 grand. Yeah, people, Democrats, Republicans were furious, so furious that a Republican governor not only won in Maryland. I'm not a huge fan of this guy, but to be fair, one in Maryland, but won re-election by a landslide. I'm telling you, that started with the rain tax and a local issue where local activists went out there, sat there on the corners, waving signs started local Facebook groups started going into the state assembly and having their voices heard at open hearings, started talking to the press and figuring out how to use the press, started staging events.

[00:57:53]

It led to a revolt in Maryland. That led to some real change over there. Now, the Republican governor of Maryland. Even though he's dominated by leftists in the state assembly and state or state delegates and state Senate. He is going to be ultimately in charge of the redistricting effort in Maryland, where I can almost guarantee you Maryland, that has seven Democrats and one Republican in the United States Congress, I can almost guarantee you that once the redistricting in Maryland happens, that there's going to be at least one more Republican seat in Maryland, possibly two.

[00:58:29]

How does that affect you? Because, ladies and gentlemen, what if there's some vote comes down on something like Obamacare, again, with Biden, where it was literally down to one, two or three votes on either side at any given point? What if that vote is the seat that comes up in Maryland, all because of the rain tax and the Republican governor that got in there? Play the short game, play the long game, but play the game exactly like they played.

[00:58:58]

So lesson number one, material losses matter. Lesson number two, local money matters a whole lot more than national money. Let's go to less than three. Build power locally, too, from the peace. If you're a grassroots voter, your first job is go look for a group today. Don't imagine exactly what you want in your head and go looking for that, expecting to find it to the letter you're not that does that only works in romance novels.

[00:59:30]

Find a group, meet people and build out of it. If you're an activist, you have two jobs. Now, grow your group locally and make connections with other local groups. Forget about big national stuff. Build power where you are first and foremost. Triple Ayman. Let me give you an example again, first example is immaterial losses, I give you the example of Planned Parenthood. Why are they getting our money? Second example, the rain tax example in Maryland that led to systemic change.

[01:00:01]

Let me give you a third example about building power locally. We have a group down here, Club forty five. It's a pro Trump group in Palm Beach County. All they do is activism. They register voters, voters locally. They have meetings where they have speakers come in teaching them how to be activists. They're out there waving signs on the corner. I have no doubt that President Trump's exceptional performance in Palm Beach County, where they are exceptional performance, is largely attributed to this local group that fought on the ground there locally, fights for local issues, and they have meetings with thousands of people at them.

[01:00:36]

I did a book signing there before the plague. I've never seen a crowd like that. We ran out of books. Organized locally, meet with other groups, don't look for the perfect group out there. I'm about the Fair Tax. Me too. I love the Fair Tax. There's a bunch of fair tax supporter groups you get with another group. Maybe they don't support the Fair Tax. Maybe they support a flat tax. But you have a lot in common.

You know what you have in common? Economic liberty. That's how you build power. Not telling you disregard the national stuff that matters. But as Jordan Peterson says in his book, Clean up your own room first before you go change in the World. Locally, act folks are going to end with this story today, I'm sorry, I had a lot more to get to. Well, I have to stick with tomorrow's tomorrow's stuff. Sorry, can we finish with my my video at least out because I'll use that to tease Tomarchio.

[01:01:34]

But I just. I want to end with my personal story on this, and I don't like doing this, but it matters, folks. I was not into running for office or being an activist at all. I loved politics pretty much my whole adult life, but I wasn't into being. So I don't like for those people know me. My friends listen to show I am. I don't like being around groups of people. I never went to groups.

[01:02:02]

I'm just not comfortable around groups of people. Me going to a meeting, right, Paul is like an act of God, getting me out of the house is like really a big deal because I just I thought long story. When Obama won. I knew something had to happen. And the first thing I did that night is I emailed a guy name Jerry Walker, he was a Republican activist in Anne Arundel County where I lived in Maryland. I forget what he did, he was the GOP had Fran Arundel County at the time, I don't know what he's up to now.

[01:02:33]

I still remember the email, I still have the email and I said, listen, how do I win? What do I do? What do I do? I just looked him up online.

[01:02:40]

I lived in and around the county, Maryland. I put in and search engine Republicans and around the county, Maryland. That group came up and it said, contact us here, wasn't hard. I email them. You got back to me the next day and he said, Hey, Dan, happy to have you on board. There's a meeting of the local Republicans are called the Elephant Club. You should go on Thursday. I would not be here today.

[01:03:08]

If it was not for that first meeting, I am not kidding. I walked in the door a little shy. You know, I'm not kidding, I just it's a little emotional for me because I think how much my life changed by that one email and I walked in the door and it was about 12 really nice men and women. They I mean, none of them was under the age of 65. I was at the time in my 30s.

[01:03:33]

And they kind of looked at me puzzled like they had I don't think they had had a new member in 15 years. But I went to every one of those meetings for probably, what, four years, five years? Every one of those meetings I had my coffee with and you know what I learned? I would never be here without that group. Start locally. Clean up your own bedroom first in your own neighborhood, and we can fix this thing, but your power is local.

[01:04:05]

Don't forget that, all right, on tomorrow's show, I'm going to cover how President Trump is really owed a debt of gratitude regardless of the outcome. And I mean that that's not me kissing his butt or trying to worship the golden calf. It's a fact President Trump did some really special things, I usually don't play clips of myself, but I don't want to I said this last night on Hannity, got a lot of feedback on it. It's about a minute clip.

[01:04:29]

I'm going to play this and I'll cover more of it tomorrow. What I meant specifically. Check this out.

[01:04:33]

Sean, can we be candid? I mean, the series of candidates we had running against Donald Trump in 2016 were nice guys. Some of them are friends. But do you honestly think any of them would have beat Hillary Clinton? A lot of them wouldn't have had any appeal in Wisconsin. I mean, the fact that we're even talking about Wisconsin and Michigan tonight, the fact that we're even talking about them, that they were close, our close, you know, we don't know I'm not sure what the outcome will be until every vote is counted, but we're having these conversations.

[01:05:00]

Sean, do you know what the nickname for Pennsylvania was for Republicans before Donald Trump? Ari knows it was called Fool's Gold because every Republican would chase Pennsylvania and get and face plant like a buffoon and lose by 10 points. Donald Trump's up in Pennsylvania right now for the second election in a row. You owe this man a debt of gratitude for telling working class Americans and Hispanics, yes, you give a damn, we care about you. We are not the party of the aristocrats.

[01:05:29]

That's the Democrats with their bow ties and their flagrant lunches. That's not us. We're the ones in this for you. And you work in your kids, in your health care.

[01:05:38]

More on that tomorrow because it's important, regardless of the outcome of this election. But stay optimistic. Keep your chin up. There's still a path to victory. We're not given up. We want to give up. You've got the wrong show. Very sorry, but you may want to find someone else to show because that ain't this one.
