1:07
next time you're just standing somewhere in your home Do

something for me here for a second Look around, think to

yourself What if I put this open the market? What if I
1:14
put it on the market? What would I get for it?
1:16
What would I need to get ready? Well,
1:19
once you've come down from the panic attack after realizing
1:21
that the answer is so much stuff Realize
1:23
a simple fact What you need is an actual
1:26
expert here You need a real estate agent that
1:28
you can trust An agent that is going to
1:30
know The people he or she trusts do all
1:32
those things They know someone
1:34
who is going to do it right the first time And they
1:36
know whether you should do it or not I
1:39
have a relative who wants to, thinking about selling a house And
1:41
I'm like, I just can't, I have too many things to do in
1:43
this house And we just keep saying, or Don't
1:46
do any of it Don't do one bit of it Just,
1:49
just get out of the house But
1:52
you know, sometimes people don't understand that I
1:54
will say, a real estate agent that you can trust Someone who knows
1:56
the market can help you with those decisions Whether
1:59
you're planning to move or even or even

2:10
Mm-hmm! Yeah,
2:14
just to follow up on that a bit, we
2:16
were gonna remodel a lot of our
2:18
house, and our realtor said, no.
2:21
Don't do it, right? Don't do it. Don't
2:23
do it. You won't get your money back
2:26
out of it. She did recommend, because we
2:28
had countertops from 2008, so
2:30
we did upgrade that. We upgraded
2:32
countertops, replaced carpeting, where our kids
2:35
had destroyed carpeting. And
2:37
then that was it. That was it. That's
2:39
it, saved us a lot. A fortune, and
2:42
you wind up realizing you're only getting, if
2:44
you get lucky, you get 70% of your
2:46
money back when you do these things. Exactly.
2:48
So they've sometimes, it makes sense, a
2:51
lot of times when you are going to live there and
2:53
enjoy them for multiple years, right? You're just gonna do it
2:55
and then sell it, and
2:57
you might not have the same taste as the
2:59
next person wanting to buy it. That's maybe the
3:02
most critical part, because they want their touches, they
3:04
want their vision for the house. So let them
3:06
have it. Let them do it. We got
3:08
full asking price. Congratulations, that's awesome.
3:10
And this just happened, right? Just happened. We
3:13
sold the house in a week, which was nice. Really?
3:16
Yeah. the interest
3:18
rates are high, prices are going up. That's
3:20
the thing. So you got the realtor situation,
3:23
not to mention, you have a little bit
3:25
of an advantage doing this in Texas. That's
3:28
true. One of the fastest growing
3:30
areas in the country. Yeah,
3:32
and Dallas in particular, this area has been
3:34
very hot for real estate, but there are
3:36
other areas around the country where that's true,
3:39
it's just easier in Texas probably to do
3:41
this. So congratulations. I will
3:43
say, maybe we can get a real
3:45
estate agent that Joe Biden trusts as he moves out of
3:47
the White House come in January. Oh, I can't wait. I
3:49
will pay for the move. Really? If
3:53
he moves out of the White House, and
3:56
I'll pay even more if he'll move out
3:58
early, because that was a good one. That
4:00
would be awesome. But
4:02
yeah, I'll do a GoFundMe page,
4:05
whatever it takes to help him get, you
4:07
know, the Mayflower truck in front of 1600
4:09
Pennsylvania Avenue. That
4:11
is sweet. Yeah. You're just a sweet,
4:13
just a nice guy, right? Yeah, a lot of
4:15
people don't understand that. Partisan politics get in the
4:17
way, not with Pat Gray. Not in this case.
4:19
He will make sure he can push over Biden,
4:22
gets out of that house, even if he wants
4:24
to leave a little early. Yes. You know? Yeah,
4:26
we'll get him right back to Delaware. Wow, that's
4:28
great. Where this Corvette and,
4:30
you know, his ice cream
4:32
parlors. Is the vet parked at Rehoboth Beach,
4:34
or is it in Wilmington? That's what I
4:36
don't know. I think it's Rehoboth Beach. I
4:38
think, I could be wrong on that, but
4:40
it's, wherever it is, he can go
4:43
there, you know, enjoy it. It's
4:45
been interesting to watch the reaction to
4:48
the last couple of days where, if
4:51
you remember, right, and maybe I misunderstood this,
4:54
because it's possible, Pat. Like, there's so much news going
4:56
on. Sometimes you hear things and you don't, you don't
4:58
fully get what's going on. My
5:01
understanding was we did this show on Monday, and
5:03
one of the first things we did on Monday was to
5:06
read a letter from Joe
5:08
Biden, where he very
5:10
clearly indicated he was staying
5:12
in the race. Yeah. Right? That happened, right? That was
5:14
a thing. We talked about that. That was a thing.
5:17
Then we played audio. We didn't
5:19
really get through a lot of it, but we got
5:21
through some audio from the Joe Scarborough experience on
5:23
MSNBC, where
5:26
the, if I remember right, the
5:28
whole tone of that was Joe Biden saying,
5:30
hey, I'm in this
5:33
race. I'm not going anywhere. I'm
5:35
the nominee. I won the
5:37
primary. The debate you're all complaining about, I
5:39
was on stage for it because I was the
5:41
nominee. Like, that's why. So
5:43
it's my nomination. I'm
5:45
staying. No more questions
5:48
about it, right? That was- Yeah, he made it
5:50
pretty clear. Right. Yeah. I
5:52
don't know if Nancy Pelosi heard the show on Monday, but I
5:54
hate to break this to you. Oh, no. Because I know I
5:56
feel like she listens to most of our shows, but
5:59
I don't think she tuned in. in
6:01
on Monday at all or Tuesday or
6:03
any show since the debate. Huh. Because
6:05
she seems to be very confused as
6:07
to what's going on in this new
6:09
clip from MSNBC. It's Nancy Pelosi, and
6:12
she's being asked about
6:14
how Joe Biden
6:16
and whether he's going to stay in the race. And she
6:19
has a different understanding of the situation than I
6:21
do. Hmm. Does he have your support to be
6:23
the head of the Democratic ticket? As long as
6:25
the president has the president, it's up to the
6:28
president to subside if he is going to. We're
6:31
all encouraging him to
6:34
make that decision because time
6:36
is running short. I
6:40
think overwhelming support of the caucus. It's not
6:42
for me to say. I'm not the head
6:44
of the caucus anymore, but he's
6:48
beloved. He is respected. Right.
6:50
And people want him to
6:52
make that decision. He
6:54
has made the decision. He has said firmly
6:57
this week, he is going to run. Do
6:59
you want him to run? I
7:01
want him to do whatever he decides to do.
7:04
Sorry, decide who's running. That's the way it is. Whatever
7:06
he decides, we go with. Wow.
7:09
That is not a ringing endorsement from Nancy
7:11
Pelosi. It's also a lot of words that
7:13
don't exist, like society. I don't know what
7:16
society is. At some point, Joe
7:18
Biden needs to make fun of Biden for
7:22
his speech issues. She's
7:25
got some. She's got them too. I mean, she's
7:27
getting much worse too. I mean, this is like.
7:29
Sounds like she's drunk most of the time. Yeah.
7:32
And I think it's just. I don't know. Is it age
7:34
or is it alcohol? I mean,
7:36
it's a morning show. Yeah, actually, I'm not
7:38
sure. I'm not sure either. I do. It's
7:40
weird because we've been watching these same figures
7:43
the entire time we've been doing talk radio,
7:46
right? Like the whole time. It's been the
7:48
same people basically in charge. I feel like
7:50
we're standing out in the
7:52
park watching
7:54
Mount Rushmore sort of just melt.
7:58
Like it's really weird. Like all these
8:00
big figures, they just get worse and
8:02
worse and worse every time you see
8:04
them. Mitch McConnell,
8:07
Nancy Pelosi, obviously
8:09
Joe Biden, and
8:11
so many more, and
8:13
they don't leave office. They
8:16
stay in their jobs. They just get,
8:19
it's like if Michael Jordan came
8:22
back today and we had
8:24
to watch him play, I mean, he probably still average
8:26
14 a game, but it would
8:28
be tough. I mean, he had Michael Jordan, he comes back,
8:30
he wins all these championships, and then he came, remember he
8:32
came back with the Wizards for a couple of years, and
8:34
he was still pretty freaking good. Yeah, he was. He was
8:37
like 40 years old, he's still scoring 20 points a game,
8:39
but like you could tell, there's a big drop off. If
8:42
he, you know, it just seems like, what if he just kept playing
8:44
until he was 80? I mean,
8:46
that's what it's like watching these people. It
8:49
is. They can't do the basic things that
8:51
they used to do. Joe Biden was
8:53
never obviously a great politician.
8:55
He has accomplished very little in his life.
8:58
This is obvious to anyone who isn't a Democrat begging
9:00
him to get out right now. Right
9:03
now, the way to get him to get
9:05
out of the race is to say,
9:07
you've been incredible. This presidency has
9:09
been incredible. This three and a half years
9:12
has been the most amazing three and a
9:14
half years of any presidency of all time.
9:16
You are so great, Joe, get out. I
9:19
understand that approach. You're playing up to
9:21
his ego, you're trying to persuade him,
9:24
but we should draw the line here,
9:27
Pat. This is not true.
9:30
Joe Biden- The three years of incredible presidency
9:32
is not true? Yeah, it's not true. Joe
9:35
Biden has not been a good president at all. He's
9:37
been a very bad president. Very bad.
9:40
A piece of evidence to support this would be
9:43
the fact that he had a 36% approval rating
9:46
before the debate. Yeah. No
9:48
president, to my knowledge, give me a
9:50
call, correct me if I'm wrong, but
9:53
no president in recent history has
9:55
been able to recover from approval ratings like
9:58
this and win the presidency. Done.
10:02
Let me give you the list of the names. I'm done.
10:04
It doesn't
10:06
happen. It doesn't
10:08
work. Give me that list again. Sure, right here. I'm going to give
10:10
you one more time. Here it comes. Some of the name. Done.
10:13
Okay. Wow. It's
10:16
an extend- and that's, I believe- That was the
10:18
extended list? The extended list. Okay. George
10:24
W. Bush did come
10:26
back from a slight polling
10:28
issue in this time. Now, of
10:30
course, George W. Bush was
10:32
not in his 80s when he did
10:34
such a thing, but
10:36
he wasn't- Mid-50s, if I
10:39
remember correctly. Yeah. He was in his
10:41
prime as a politician, and
10:43
he was not down as much, and it
10:45
was not dealing with the types of things that Joe Biden
10:47
is dealing with. I mean, it's
10:49
possible to come back. It doesn't mean that this election
10:51
is decided. In fact, it's, I
10:54
would argue, uncomfortably close. I
10:56
mean, considering what we saw yesterday, what
10:58
we didn't see as
11:01
aftermath of that debate was a
11:03
massive polling collapse for Democrats. We
11:06
didn't see that. We didn't see an 8-point, 9-point
11:09
drop. We saw, I don't know,
11:11
a three-point movement, the normal movement of a blowout
11:13
debate. That to me
11:15
was worse than a blowout debate, and there was certainly
11:17
a part of me hoping that it would be even
11:20
larger. It might wind up being that way. We don't
11:22
know yet. But politicians,
11:25
presidents running for reelection that want to
11:27
run for reelection and have a 36%
11:29
approval rating don't
11:31
win reelection. That's just
11:33
the way this typically works. It's
11:36
not impossible. Donald Trump obviously brings
11:38
some unique things to
11:40
the table in an election. We've talked many,
11:43
for many years about Trump derangement syndrome,
11:45
where people, I mean, to
11:47
define that generally, we're
11:50
talking about irrational hatred for Donald Trump
11:52
no matter what. So when you
11:54
have someone who has a syndrome named after him, there's a
11:56
lot of people who have a syndrome named after
11:58
him. People who
12:00
just will vote against him no matter what,
12:02
even if his opponent is incoherent. And so
12:04
that's gonna make it to be a close
12:06
election no matter what, I think. I
12:09
don't think you're gonna get even a Barack Obama,
12:11
John McCain type of result, which was,
12:13
I think we talked about it earlier, 54-45, I
12:16
think was the number on that, if I'm remembering right. It
12:18
was eight or nine points. That's
12:20
about as big a blowout as you can possibly
12:22
come up with in today's politics, with
12:24
people polarize the way they are. I
12:27
don't think you're gonna see that here. You
12:29
should. It's really hard to imagine
12:32
in this day and age, blowouts like
12:34
we saw with Ronald Reagan, you
12:36
know, who won 49 states. Yeah.
12:40
I can't, can you imagine that happening today?
12:42
No. I mean, Ronald Reagan,
12:45
49 state, including California, which,
12:47
and New York, which you'd
12:49
never see happen today. You'd never see
12:51
that happen. So,
12:54
yeah, it's always gonna be
12:56
close. And it is
12:58
too close for comfort even now, even
13:00
a couple of weeks after the debate
13:02
now. It's two weeks
13:04
on like tomorrow already,
13:07
right? Man, that's gone
13:09
by fast. All right, 888-727-B-E-C-K, more
13:11
coming up in one minute. This
13:16
month, we've been celebrating the birth of our
13:18
nation and remembering the heroes who fought for
13:20
our freedoms. But you know
13:22
that some Americans today still don't have the
13:25
freedom of life and liberty. Tragically, every day,
13:27
thousands of unborn babies' lives are taken against
13:29
their will. I
13:32
don't know, maybe they should be considered Americans
13:34
too. Is this a controversial statement? I guess
13:36
it is these days. Preborn is
13:38
the largest pro-life organization in the country.
13:40
They're leading the charge to put an
13:42
end to the atrocity of abortion. Every
13:44
day, they sponsor free ultrasounds for women,
13:46
as well as providing help for up
13:48
to two years after the baby is
13:50
born. When a mother sees her
13:53
unborn child on the monitor, she
13:55
hears that heartbeat, she's twice as likely
13:57
to consider choosing life for her baby.
14:00
business owner, perhaps you can consider a larger
14:02
donation for a write-off because as we
14:04
know the government isn't working to save babies, their
14:08
priority seems to be the opposite these days.
14:10
A donation of $1,000, $2,000, $20,000, all tax deductible and can do so much for so
14:13
many. Get
14:19
involved today, donate, please. Dial pound
14:21
250 and say the keyword baby. It's
14:23
pound 250, say the keyword baby. If you can
14:25
only give $1, $2, $5, that's great too. preborn.com/Beck.

14:36
10 seconds, station ID. So
14:47
let's say that Joe Biden does step aside
14:51
and it turns out
14:53
that Kamala Harris becomes
14:56
the nominee for the Democrats. Who's
14:58
her vice president going to be? You know
15:00
the rumor I'm hearing is
15:02
Gretchen Whitmer. You imagine
15:04
two women on the ticket? I mean, not that
15:06
long ago where there was one woman
15:08
on the ticket and that didn't even happen.
15:14
To have two women on the ticket, we're moving down this
15:17
path pretty fast now. Is Geraldine
15:20
Ferraro available? I
15:22
don't know if she could step up. I
15:26
just feel uncomfortable. Is she alive? Again,
15:30
is the president alive? I don't
15:32
know that she's any less alive than Biden. That's
15:34
a good point. I
15:38
don't buy Whitmer with Kamala. I
15:41
don't think that would be the choice. I
15:43
could definitely see Newsom as
15:45
a... Yeah, I could see that. I
15:48
could see someone like... Although
15:51
that's California, so that would be an issue, wouldn't
15:54
it? Yeah, to California.
15:56
Again, those problems are real
15:58
but solvable. You can always
16:00
get around them, but that would be an interesting one. You
16:03
know, someone like a, you would probably
16:05
wanna go, what about a Josh Shapiro from
16:07
Pennsylvania? I think that would be a real
16:09
possibility. He's an up and
16:11
coming star. He's from the region.
16:13
They need to, and they need Pennsylvania pretty
16:15
desperately. He'd be a guy I
16:17
think would be, especially not needing to step into the top
16:20
of the ticket, but stepping into that secondary role, I think
16:22
it would be a serious consideration. A lot of this has
16:24
to do too, with what is Kamala's
16:26
relationship with these people. I mean, I have
16:28
no idea. If
16:31
you go by the Barack Obama rule, which
16:33
is don't, the
16:36
Barack Obama rule, if you go back and
16:38
read, you know, his heavily reported biographies,
16:42
is basically like America is a bunch
16:44
of racists. They can't
16:46
take more than one exotic candidate on
16:48
a ticket. This is why
16:51
you had Joe Biden on the ticket. He specifically
16:53
picked him because he was old and
16:55
white. That's not
16:58
like me speculating. This has been heavily
17:00
reported. He picked him because he thought
17:02
the American people couldn't
17:04
deal with another person
17:06
of color on the ticket. They're too racist. They
17:09
couldn't deal with another younger person on the ticket.
17:11
They were too, they
17:13
were, you know. So he needed a racist on
17:15
the ticket. You're saying Joe
17:17
Biden needed a racist on the ticket. What
17:19
evidence do you have of Joe
17:22
Biden being racist? There's, you know, this, but
17:24
it's, you know, not, you're
17:30
not hearing it. I'm not hearing it, no. But
17:33
it's there. My understanding, yeah, well, let's
17:35
hear it. Let's, maybe you have. I
17:37
mean, I might. Okay, well,
17:40
I might have. Maybe you got the
17:42
first sort of mainstream
17:45
American who
17:48
is our ticket and right and
17:50
clean and clean. I
17:54
mean, that's a storybook, man. Storybook, that doesn't
17:56
happen in real life. Can you imagine a
17:59
clean African? American. What
18:01
a storybook that would be. Thank you
18:03
Joe Biden for bringing that analysis to
18:05
us, because I mean, can
18:07
you imagine, we're talking also not about just
18:09
a clean African American, which would be a
18:11
storybook in and of itself, according to Joe,
18:14
but also one that could speak. Not
18:18
articulately. Yes. I'm
18:20
saying you have an articulate, clean.
18:23
I mean, not totally articulate. Yeah,
18:25
sort of articulate. That's like, that's
18:28
another world. Right. But it'd be
18:30
sort of articulate and clean,
18:33
you're saying. And that's what I'm saying. You got
18:35
to keep your storybooks believable, right?
18:37
Like it couldn't possibly happen. Yeah. According
18:39
to the- They got from storybook to
18:41
sci-fi. Right. According to the book of
18:43
Joe Biden, it couldn't possibly happen. You'd
18:45
have an actually articulate, clean black man.
18:47
No. But in this particular situation, you
18:49
have a sort of articulate, clean black
18:51
man. Now, is he sort of clean
18:53
or is he fully clean and only
18:56
sort of articulate? Well, he does say
18:58
clean. He doesn't- He doesn't qualify that.
19:00
He doesn't qualify clean. So I think
19:02
he's talking about, he might have even
19:04
taken a full shower. And by the
19:06
way, we should point out, the only
19:08
reason Joe Biden is president
19:10
is because of the black vote. Somehow
19:12
he was able to survive that statement.
19:14
Yeah, and many more. And many more.
19:17
Problem figuring out whether you're for me
19:19
or Trump and you ain't black. Oh,
19:21
okay. He survived that.
19:23
Yep. And he went to James Clyburn and
19:25
was like, please endorse me. And he did.
19:27
And now, in his moment
19:30
of stress, what is keeping him in
19:32
this office? The Congressional Black Caucus. It's
19:35
incredible. It is incredible. This man
19:38
has said more overtly racist things
19:40
than- Oh, than anybody. Obviously more
19:42
than Donald Trump, who they all
19:44
say is racist. More than any
19:46
presidential candidate going back to, probably
19:48
to LBJ. It's not even close.
19:51
It's not even close. If, and you
19:53
know what? LBJ's comments were in private.
19:55
This guy's done it all publicly. It's
19:58
true. We actually have to- Now
20:01
we know LBJ was a racist,
20:03
however he was saying those things
20:05
not in front of the cameras. This is Joe Biden in
20:08
front of cameras doing it. Yeah. Over
20:10
and over and over again. That's
20:12
how blatant the largest growth in
20:14
population is Indian Americans moving from
20:16
India. You cannot go
20:18
to a 7-Eleven or a Dunkin
20:20
Donuts unless you have a slight
20:22
Indian accent to pull it. I'm
20:24
not joking. And he's
20:26
not joking. He's actually being racist right there.
20:28
He's not joking about it. No, he's serious
20:30
about his racism. That's
20:33
great. Incredible. And you've got the
20:35
one where he says that unlike
20:39
black people, Hispanics are diverse in
20:41
their opinions. Oh, I remember that
20:43
one, yeah. All
20:45
blacks think alike. All blacks think
20:47
alike, but Hispanics actually have differences
20:50
in opinions. Individual Hispanics might think
20:52
of something different, unlike obviously blacks.
20:55
Obviously. That's what he said. Over and
20:57
over he's done this kind of stuff. Yeah. And
20:59
yet he is a champion apparently at the
21:01
black community. He's fine. By the
21:03
way, Marj is a little bit off of
21:05
my remembrance of this. It was 53.46 for
21:07
Akhoba Bhabha and John McCain. Only
21:09
a 7-Eleven margin. And I think that is still
21:12
about as big as you can possibly get. If
21:14
you want to go back to the
21:17
days back in the... Ronald
21:19
Reagan 59, Walter Mondale 41. So
21:22
I mean this is a totally different world.
21:24
Reagan beat Carter by nine. You
21:27
know, Bill Clinton won by six,
21:30
five and a half. And
21:33
then he beat Bob Dole by about
21:35
nine. And then since then, it's been
21:37
close pretty much every single time. Even
21:40
in blowout elections, there's only six or seven points. Stand

22:49
Glenn Beck. Avoiding the
22:52
woke mainstream messaging in favor of
22:54
truth. More Glenn Beck in a moment. Unlike
23:17
the African American community with notable
23:20
exceptions, the Latino community is an
23:22
incredibly diverse community. Is
23:24
that true? There it is. Incredible.
23:30
It's just really incredible that he got away
23:32
with that. It's Patton Stu for Glenn today.
23:34
888-727-BECK. I
23:37
like this political story. From
23:40
Politico, Trump's platform has changed
23:43
the GOP's position on abortion
23:46
and it's not just abortion but that's one of
23:48
the big ones and not everyone
23:50
is happy. I
23:53
would be included among not everyone.
23:55
Really? Yeah, I would.
23:57
I would also appreciate the fact that
24:00
the Republican Party has just adopted Trump's
24:03
newfound liberality, I
24:05
guess, on abortion. I, how
24:08
can you do that? Either,
24:11
either you believe that abortion
24:14
is killing a baby or
24:16
you don't. Yeah. Which
24:18
is it? I don't really understand the middle
24:20
ground on it. Yeah, it's hard to understand.
24:22
Either you think it's going to come out
24:24
as a Volkswagen. Right. And it doesn't
24:26
matter what you do. Or you think it's a human child. Or we
24:28
think it's a human child and you need to protect it. Kind
24:31
of the two positions that make sense to me. Now, of
24:33
course, the Volkswagen one doesn't make sense to me and
24:36
therefore I don't support it, but at
24:38
least morally it makes some sense. If you
24:40
believe this is just some weird alien life
24:42
form that occasionally comes out as a boy
24:44
or a girl, maybe you
24:47
could justify not caring whether
24:49
it lives or dies. Or you
24:51
take the, say, Bill Maher position,
24:53
who does believe actually said,
24:55
yeah, it is kind of murder. In fact, it's
24:57
not just kind of murder. It is murder, but
25:00
I'm okay with it. I guess you can
25:02
do that. We're too overpopulated, Pat. You
25:04
got to get the population bomb out of the library. It's
25:06
got a little bit of dust on it and everything in
25:08
it is wrong, but let's just still keep honoring those
25:11
positions. Yeah, this is a weird
25:13
one. It is very weird. I'm
25:16
trying to think through this a little bit, right? I'm
25:18
trying not to be reactionary because I happen to be
25:21
someone who is very pro-life and I
25:23
don't feel that
25:25
equivocation is the correct response
25:28
to this particular issue. You know,
25:31
I have this weird vibe that
25:33
maybe babies should be
25:35
allowed to live. That is weird.
25:37
Wow. I don't know where I came up with
25:39
it. In every case though? I mean, not every
25:41
case, right? Just sometimes. I was thinking like... If
25:43
you feel like it and it's convenient for you.
25:45
No, no, no, no, that's actually not what I'm
25:48
saying. What I'm saying is they should just have
25:50
a chance to live their lives. But
25:52
what if it's inconvenient? What
25:54
if I'm not the CEO of a
25:57
major corporation at the time? I
26:00
might struggle from time to time. No, this makes it much
26:02
more difficult. Now I still have them live. Really?
26:05
Yeah. In all circumstances... Wow, you're
26:07
an extremist. ...children should be allowed
26:09
to live. What kind of right-wing
26:11
kook are you? Yeah. Wow. And
26:13
people will say, well, that's true.
26:15
I mean, what if we lose
26:17
the next Einstein or the next
26:20
Michael Jordan or who knows what we could
26:22
lose? Also, a person who
26:24
makes no difference at all. What
26:27
about the idiot who cuts you off in
26:29
line at Sonic? That person
26:31
also deserves a chance
26:33
to live. All
26:37
people deserve
26:39
a chance to live. If they
26:41
screw their life up once they're
26:43
born, that's on them. Okay. But
26:45
we should be involved in maybe
26:48
allowing babies to live. It's a
26:50
crazy position. It is. It's nutty.
26:52
It's history. And I
26:54
mean, this sincerely, it is
26:56
extreme. Because you want to
26:58
call me, and Pat, you'd be on
27:00
this board bandwagon as well, a pro-life
27:02
extremist. It's probably a fair description because
27:04
our opinion is not widely held for
27:07
whatever reason. It's not. That's true. I
27:09
understand that. That's true. We're in the
27:11
vast minority on that.
27:13
And I will say that
27:16
seems to be the calculation
27:18
of the platform, right? And
27:21
I think a lot of people think that's reasonable
27:23
because you got to get elected. Well, Trump said
27:25
it during the debate. Yep. We have to be
27:27
elected. Well, I
27:29
mean, that is true. And
27:32
I will say under normal circumstances,
27:35
my reaction to this platform, which has plenty of
27:37
good stuff in there as well, like preventing World War
27:39
III, I'm on board for that. Yeah, me too. I
27:41
don't think we should have World War III. I didn't
27:43
like one or two. No. We don't need a third
27:46
one. Let's not have it. Now, you weren't around for
27:48
either one or two, and neither was I. So how
27:50
do you know you don't like it? You know, you
27:52
should always, you should knock something before you try it.
27:54
Right. Right. That's a good
27:57
one. That's why they're trying to get us to
27:59
try this third one. Maybe it'll be better. better
28:01
and more fun than the first two. Yeah. I've
28:03
noticed Democrats usually disagree with the Republicans. I
28:05
mean, they seem to be wanting the World War
28:08
III thing and weird, how they flipped on that.
28:10
So weird. So bizarre. Now
28:12
they would say, of course, they don't want World
28:15
War III. That's what they would say is that,
28:17
well, you guys were all about Iraq and Afghanistan.
28:19
And I would say, yes, I was at the
28:21
time, but I think I've
28:23
learned something over the last 20 years of perpetual
28:25
war. And I'd like to avoid
28:27
that now. It'll teach you some lessons.
28:29
Yeah. Yeah. And I, I remain,
28:32
I think, concerned
28:35
with the geopolitical, fallout
28:38
of doing nothing in
28:41
some of these situations. Like, but I will
28:43
say, you know, it should be a last
28:45
resort. War should be a last resort. It
28:47
shouldn't be the first resort. Yeah. And you
28:49
know, the situation in Ukraine and Russia is
28:51
fascinating because you're right. All of the sudden
28:54
Democrats are so incredibly passionate. All about
28:57
it. It's all they care about now.
28:59
Yeah. They want to be involved.
29:01
They all of a sudden hate Russia after almost
29:03
all of their officials went on vacations there back
29:05
in the day. I
29:07
mean, this was like, they all have townhouses there
29:09
still. And they all of a sudden, we're supposed
29:12
to believe they're anti Russia. Do you remember this
29:14
from Barack Obama? The 1980s are now calling
29:16
to ask for their foreign policy back because, you
29:19
know, the cold war has been over for
29:21
20 years. I mean, that was his attitude.
29:23
Yeah. In 2012, that was Barack Obama's attitude.
29:26
Russia's not a problem. No, they're a friend.
29:28
They're a friend. They're not something to be
29:30
afraid of at all. You should be afraid
29:32
of ISIS or whatever, but
29:34
not Russia. And it does sort of bother
29:36
me that we highlight that clip because it
29:38
is basically the best moment of Mitt Romney's
29:41
career. Yeah. And it's frustrating to highlight it,
29:43
but it is. He was right on that.
29:45
He was. We said he was right at
29:47
the time. Yes, we did. Russia is maybe
29:49
not number one, but the top three when
29:51
you're talking about major international threats. I would
29:53
say China is probably number one now. That's
29:55
where I would go as well. So you
29:58
look at this. this
30:00
platform and there's a lot of good stuff in there.
30:02
It's, I think a smart decision, I
30:05
think, to transform what
30:08
the old school process was, which was, you know,
30:10
you've got a 300 page platform that
30:13
no one ever reads and no one really pays attention
30:15
to and shrink it down to about 20 points that
30:19
everyone can kind of, you know, generally agree
30:21
on and that are
30:23
consistent with the Republican party ideal.
30:25
So I think that process is
30:27
fine. In the summary
30:29
of the 20 points, the word abortion doesn't
30:31
even exist. This has been a
30:34
central part of the Republican party's ideals
30:36
for a very long time. A
30:39
part of it, you know, the overturning
30:41
of Roe versus Wade was the beginning
30:44
of the end of abortion, if
30:47
you are of the optimistic
30:50
sort, but it was also part of a 50
30:53
year legal battle, a
30:57
50 year effort to
30:59
overturn one of these, one
31:02
of the worst legal rulings in history. So
31:08
the fact that it would just be abandoned and
31:10
there is some sort of boilerplate language
31:12
in the expanded document that kind of
31:15
indicates, Pat, well,
31:17
we're against late term abortion. That's
31:20
good, you should be. Yeah. That's
31:23
it? And that's it. It says
31:25
something about being generally pro-life, like it
31:27
doesn't really define that. I
31:30
just feel like, I have two minds of
31:32
this, Pat, tell me where you
31:34
would land and maybe we could get calls on this
31:36
888-727-BECK because
31:38
it does, it's a tough one
31:40
in some ways, if you think it out. Number
31:43
one, the platform, who
31:45
even reads it? I think you can make
31:48
the argument it doesn't mean really a thing. Number
31:50
two, Donald Trump has
31:53
a pretty good record on this topic, like
31:55
he appointed justices. Yeah, who overturned.
31:58
Overturn over suede. It's something
32:00
that both you and I together have said for
32:02
many years would never happen. And
32:04
then it happened. So how can you question
32:07
the guy? On
32:09
the other hand,
32:11
it seems very much like it's
32:13
politics here where the
32:16
calculation being made this time by Donald
32:19
Trump is what benefits him to be
32:21
elected is to be sort of soft
32:23
on this issue, to not scare suburban
32:25
women away. I understand that
32:27
as a political calculation. Maybe it's the right one. But
32:30
his calculation in 2016 was
32:33
we have weakness with evangelical
32:35
Christians and others
32:37
that are pro-life. We
32:39
should be strong on this issue. And
32:42
that's a different position than the one he has
32:44
today, seemingly. I get that, well, they made the
32:46
decision it's going back to the States, but
32:50
I don't know. How do you
32:52
work through this yourself? Well,
32:55
I'm having a hard time too. I'm struggling with it because
32:58
you do have to be elected. And
33:00
he said that at the debate. Otherwise,
33:04
you've got a Democrat in office again,
33:06
and especially this one who
33:09
is killing us. He's
33:11
just killing us. And so he's making a
33:13
political calculation. And a lot of people
33:16
think he should. On abortion, I
33:18
don't think you can make that calculation.
33:21
On abortion, it's too important. It's
33:24
too critical. Again,
33:27
you're either pro-life or you're not. I
33:30
think there's one exception, and that's the mother's
33:32
life in danger. But that almost never happens.
33:34
Yeah, I mean, it's pretty... Almost never happens.
33:37
It's incredibly rare. I mean, some
33:39
doctors say it never happens. And
33:42
it's, again, like... Because you could do a C-section,
33:44
right? I think that's the point
33:46
is that, well, you can deliver the baby still. You don't
33:48
have to afford it. You have to deliver the baby. Yes.
33:52
You have no choice. Eventually, you have to deliver it. It's just whether you're going
33:54
to try to deliver it alive or dead. Yeah. Again,
33:59
with that particular one... it
34:01
can get a little messy. So, but again,
34:04
it's still a difficult decision for anyone. You're
34:06
just choosing one life for another and like,
34:09
how do you deal with that? But this
34:11
is what it gets, winds up happening with
34:13
these debates. You get a sidetrack just the
34:15
0.0001% of possibilities. At
34:19
the end of the day, if we
34:21
just saw both Donald Trump and J.D.
34:23
Vance, who is one of the leaders for VP, go
34:27
on television and say they're pretty much okay with
34:29
Mipha Presto, which is like, we're
34:32
talking right now about 60 to 70% of abortions are
34:35
going with the abortion pill. Right. You
34:38
know, if these things that are
34:40
tossed out there like, oh, well, what about 15
34:42
week ban? Well, you're allowing
34:45
95% of abortions to occur with
34:47
a 15 week ban. These
34:49
are not pro-life positions. No. They're
34:52
more pro-life than AOC. You
34:55
know, if that's your standard, I guess you're hitting it.
34:58
But like a pro-life standard is trying
35:00
to stop abortions. Even a six week
35:02
ban allows 40% of abortions to occur.
35:07
Wow. I mean, is
35:10
that a pro-life position? It's
35:12
half pro-life. And
35:14
the abortion pill thing, I don't even understand how
35:16
you can be okay with that. How
35:20
can you, if you're pro-life, I mean, I understand
35:23
it if you're pro-abortion. I don't
35:25
understand it from the Republican party standpoint.
35:28
I don't get it. But again,
35:30
maybe we're too extreme on this. Yep. Very
35:32
possible. Do you care, first of all, that it's not
35:34
in the platform, number one? And number two, do you
35:37
understand the calculation here? 888-727-BECK, is it okay? Are
35:41
you okay with it? I mean, if
35:43
you're like AOC and you're like, I want to have 14 abortions
35:45
next week, that's not really the person I'm looking to
35:47
hear from. I want someone who's pro-life and it's like,
35:50
okay, look, I just, I think
35:52
it's totally fair to just say,
35:54
look, I just trust Trump on this. And
35:56
he has to be elected. He's got a good record and he's got
35:58
to be elected. Yeah. More coming up. In
36:18
an era of escalating social
36:20
unrest and rising crime rates,
36:22
safeguarding our families has never
36:24
been more critical. That is
36:27
why I'm endorsing the Berna
36:29
Less Lethal Pistol Launcher. It's
36:31
a non-lethal defense option developed by
36:34
common-sense gun owners who value the
36:36
power of choice. This
36:38
device enables you to de-escalate
36:40
dangerous situations effectively without the
36:43
finality of lethal force. The
36:46
Berna offers a safer, sensible
36:48
alternative that can save lives
36:50
on both ends, protecting the
36:53
user and delivering formidable stopping
36:55
power to deter aggressors. Legal
36:57
in all 50 states, no background checks or
37:00
permits required, and can be shipped directly to
37:02

37:04
just an option. It's an essential
37:07
tool for responsible, non-lethal protection. Visit

Stay safe with berna.com. Well,
37:21
let's say you happen to be a
37:24
man who's just sold their home. Perhaps
37:28
your person who is
37:30
named Pat Gray. And there's going to
37:32
be some playing around with old
37:35
titles, new titles maybe coming into the picture
37:37
when it comes to your home.
37:39
These are risky times for
37:41
someone like Pat, because
37:43
your title is at, but
37:46
focus. I think you can turn that off actually on these. It's
37:50
one of those things that can be a real problem
37:52
for you, because if your title gets stolen,
37:54
like you could go, this is happening to people. They go to sell
37:56
their home. They think they're selling their home. And they're like, actually, you
37:58
sold your home six months ago. What are you talking
38:00
about? Actually, no, I didn't, but yeah. Yeah. That's
38:03
a nightmare. It's wild. It's called Home Title
38:05
Theft. It's one of the fastest growing crimes in America. And it's also
38:07
one of the least known crimes. You
38:09
don't want it happening to you and your family, which
38:12
is why you need home title protection. If
38:14
no one is watching out for your title, then it's
38:16
really just a matter of time until one of these
38:18
thieves targets you. This is happening to people. It is
38:20
real and there is at least something you can do
38:23
about it. Don't fall prey
38:25
to these thieves. Go to hometidaloc.com. Protect

38:58
and Stu for Glenn this week. Triple
39:01
eight seven two seven BECK. Are
39:05
you okay with the compromise the Republican Party
39:07
is making in their platform on
39:10
abortion? Actually, the abortion issue doesn't
39:12
really figure into
39:14
the platform much at all, does
39:17
it? You said they just kind of in
39:19
passing mentioned that they're generally pro-life.
39:21
The main summary that they released does not
39:23
mention the word abortion at all. And there's
39:25
nothing about it at all. In the expanded
39:27
16 page version, it
39:29
does in passing mention it and only
39:32
says they're against late term abortion. It
39:35
just shows how frightened off
39:37
they've been by the
39:39
outcry of the Democrats. It's
39:42
worked really well for Democrats. It
39:44
has and it worked really well. I
39:47
still don't necessarily believe you're winning or losing
39:49
this election based on that law. But
39:52
you've said before, even if you do lose it
39:55
though, is this an issue worth losing
39:57
an election over? It's
39:59
a tough one. It is a tough one. Yeah,
40:01
it really is. Let's go to Liz in
40:03
New York. Hey, Liz, you're on the Glenn Beck program, Pat and
40:05
Stu. Hi, thank you for taking
40:07
my call. Um, so I,
40:11
I called in because I was raised
40:13
by a single mother, very liberal Democrat,
40:15
um, who is an atheist, but
40:18
yet also told me abortion was my
40:20
God given right as a woman. It
40:22
somehow made what I now
40:25
term sexual immorality, you know, made me equal to a
40:27
man. I could walk away from a pregnancy just as
40:29
easily as a man could. Um, I
40:31
ended up getting, well, I've got married. I had
40:33
my first kid. With our second
40:35
child though, there was a problem with
40:38
the pregnancy. And I remember when you were
40:40
in the car, both of us
40:42
debating in our own head, we were both, you
40:44
know, pro choice at the time. And I wanted
40:46
this baby. I wanted this baby. I'm going to
40:49
get emotional. I wanted this baby. And then,
40:52
um, one of us said,
40:54
I think we should have him. And the other one
40:57
went, we should have tears and everything. So we have
40:59
this wonderful, he's now 15 years old. He has special
41:01
needs. And I wouldn't change a damn thing.
41:03
I, I, we, she makes my
41:05
life perfect along with my older
41:07
child of course. But I also started
41:09
at that time listening cause how do you, when you're
41:11
pro choice and then you make this decision to have
41:13
this baby and you know, this is the life we
41:16
live. I started really listening to some of the pro
41:18
life arguments and some of them, I just didn't have
41:20
a good answer to. And as
41:22
a pro choice person, that's what started to
41:24
change my mind. I now consider myself pro
41:26
life. And while I
41:29
am not, I'm not comfortable with,
41:31
with the Republicans saying, well, we're
41:33
okay with it. You know, at this point or that
41:36
point, you're right. I agree with you guys that you're
41:38
either okay with killing a baby or you're not. But
41:41
if we, if we don't allow,
41:44
we wait and I feel like this is a long
41:46
process. It's going to be a long process of the
41:49
pro life movement, really working with people and
41:51
doing things like those sonograms and
41:54
showing others there are. It's
41:56
really important and we think we're out of time, but thank you for your
41:59
call. We're gonna have more on this. here in a second. The
42:01
Glenn Beck Program. Welcome
42:42
to
42:46
the
42:49
fusion
42:54
of entertainment and
42:56
enlightenment. This
42:59
is the Glenn Beck
43:01
Program. Quick,
43:05
Pat and Stu. We've been
43:07
talking about the Republican platform and
43:09
how they've just adopted Trump's position on everything.
43:12
And is that, when it
43:14
comes to abortion, is that okay with you? I
43:17
think Stu and I admittedly are maybe a little
43:19
more extreme on this than many people pro-life
43:22
wise. But what do you
43:24
think? Yes.
43:26
Companies have to get elected. And
43:30
this is a tough one. Do
43:33
you think you compromise on
43:35
being pro-life? Triple
43:37
eight, seven two seven BECK. We'll get into that
43:39
in your calls in one minute. It's
43:44
hard to keep a good company down, especially one
43:46
that puts out the best products consistently. And that
43:49
is what Mike Pillow has been doing for a
43:51
long time. We've been singing their praises for years

on the show because Glenn actually uses their products
43:56

43:58
stand for something good. in the American
44:00

44:03
everyone trying to blow up their company
44:06
and they don't have support of the big box
44:08
stores anymore, they don't have the shopping channels anymore,
44:10
but they just have you. They just have the
44:12
American people who really like their stuff. That's what
44:14
they have. And with this huge
44:16
change in retailers, they want to pass
44:18
savings directly onto you to say thank
44:20
you and show you how much they
44:22
should appreciate your support. To get you

45:04
long. It's MyPillow. All
45:10
right, triple eight, seven, two, seven, B-E-C-K with
45:12
your thoughts. You know,
45:15
just how, how important is being
45:17
pro-life to you? To me,
45:19
it's pretty important. I mean, it's, is
45:22
there a more important issue than this? Than
45:25
life? I
45:27
don't think so. I mean, we have, we do
45:29
have a situation where tens of millions of people
45:31
should be alive that aren't. Yeah. Well, that's a
45:33
big one. Yeah. It's hard to, and
45:35
that's just in the US. It's 64 million here. It
45:40
is over a billion worldwide. That's
45:43
staggering. Now on the left, they're
45:46
fine with that because we're overpopulated
45:48
to begin with according to many
45:50
of them. But I mean,
45:54
every person on this earth could fit on
45:56
the Island of Maui. Every
45:58
person on earth. I mean, you'd be
46:00
a little bit crowded. Yeah. It'd be like
46:02
a concert. If all the rebellion of us got there, but yeah. Yeah.
46:05
You can do it. I mean, be shoulder to shoulder.
46:07
Can you imagine if you just stretched that out
46:09
to Texas, we'd all have some room. Mm-hmm. Let
46:12
alone spreading us out over the entire face of
46:14
the planet. I mean, I don't know how many
46:16
people you can fit on this earth and
46:18
how many we can feed, but it's a lot.
46:21
It's more than we have now. I mean, if
46:23
you're a person of faith,
46:26
I tend to come to the conclusion that it's unlimited.
46:29
Just keep them coming. And you know what? I'd like to
46:31
have more. Yeah. I think having people on the earth is
46:33
a good thing. When you've lost over
46:36
a billion people worldwide, you just wonder,
46:38
gosh, would one of them have cured
46:40
cancer? And it's possible, right?
46:43
I mean, well, we know one of them is Joe
46:45
Biden promised he was gonna do it. So that's gonna
46:47
happen any day now. You can check if it's done
46:49
right now, by the way. It has joe biden cured
46:51
cancer dot com. Oh, okay. Has joe biden cured cancer
46:53
dot com? I don't know. I'm not there right now.
46:55
Let me go do that. Let me go. Has joe
46:57
biden cured cancer dot com. Because he did promise. Now,
46:59
one of the first things you'll see on the video
47:02
is the video of Joe Biden during the campaign promising
47:04
that he would cure cancer if elected. So this is
47:06
not just us saying, wow, this is a crazy campaign
47:08
promise. I've heard no one ask
47:11
him about this campaign promise. No
47:13
one. But the question, has
47:15
joe biden cured cancer dot com? The
47:18
answer now is no. Oh
47:20
wow. Cancer still exists as of Wednesday,
47:22
July 10th. Dang it. Darn
47:24
it. We were so close. So close. Yet,
47:28
so seemingly far away. Let's
47:30
go to Patty in Connecticut. Hey Patty, you're
47:32
on the Glenn Beck program with Patten Stu.
47:34
Thank you for taking my call and covering
47:37
this very important subject. I actually am pro-life.
47:39
I'm a former critical care nurse, registered nurse,
47:41
and I worked for about five, six years
47:43
in an OBGYN office. And it actually enlightened
47:45
me to where they're coming from and what
47:47
people are thinking. I think
47:50
people are in an impossible situation sometimes
47:52
and they anguish over it. They don't
47:54
want to, but their situations are so
47:56
constrictive that they are not able to
47:58
afford a child. and don't have any
48:00
support systems in place, I
48:03
would think we would benefit a lot
48:05
from looking for solutions. Having Women's Center,
48:07
with counseling, with options,
48:10
with people who sit down and just
48:12
trying to steer people for abortions, talk
48:14
to people and see what we can
48:17
do for them to actually facilitate them
48:19
being able to have the life. And
48:21
people are tormented later in
48:23
their life over decisions when they have
48:26
had abortions. So it stays with people.
48:28
So many of that, and if they
48:31
had free ultrasounds, offer them
48:34
Women's Centers with healthcare,
48:36
with counseling, with options,
48:39
and the ultrasound, the sonogram is so very
48:41
important and it connects them with their child
48:43
in life. And it will
48:45
actually, I think, actually remedy a lot
48:47
of it. We have to realize that
48:49
we have been indoctrinating people for decades
48:51
now, and we have conditioned them to
48:53
accept this. They know inside their heart
48:55
they don't want to, but they've made
48:57
it okay, because they've actually had family
48:59
members and others who've been forced in
49:02
the same positions, and this is what
49:04
they chose to do. They do
49:06
carry the burden, and they carry the
49:08
loss. So we need to actually
49:10
help them, and help them make
49:12
decisions that will best benefit their life, the
49:14
future of this country, and the life of
49:16
that child, and put them on better notes,
49:19
offer support, instead of just ending the life
49:21
of a child. Patty, thank you very much. Could
49:23
have been a pre-born commercial. I was gonna say
49:25
that exactly. It sounds like a pre-born commercial. By
49:27
the way, pre-born, this is not a paid commercial,
49:29
but that is exactly what they do, and
49:31
they're doing it all over the country. That's
49:33
one of the reasons we've partnered with them.
49:36
They're a fantastic organization. Phenomenal. That is
49:38
doing almost all of that. And they really care. Yes. And
49:41
they don't just talk the women into
49:43
having, carrying the baby full term. They
49:45
also help afterwards. Up to two years
49:47
after. So the question,
49:50
kind of a difference slightly of what pre-born's doing
49:52
and what Patty's suggesting is she wants the government
49:54
to be a little bit involved, or maybe the
49:56
Republican Party. To be fair,
49:58
to the Republican platform. That is... is
50:00
sort of indicating, indicated
50:03
in the platform. They have language in there that
50:05
says basically to try to come up with some
50:07
way of supporting mothers who are
50:10
in these tough times that have to make
50:12
these tough decisions so that they don't make
50:14
the wrong one. They do sort of refer
50:16
to that in the expanded document a little
50:18
bit. They basically say, no, late
50:20
term abortion and we should support moms after
50:22
birth. Or some, you know, there's some sort
50:24
of language like that. I think
50:26
that's a good idea. I don't know necessarily,
50:29
you know, of course, as a person who likes small government,
50:31
I don't necessarily love all this stuff. I like what Preborn's
50:33
doing better. But that's a
50:35
rational thing. You have to give, do
50:38
everything you can to make these decisions more
50:40
easy for moms. Show them
50:42
the alternatives, like adoption,
50:44
for instance. Yeah, yeah. All
50:48
right, Chris in Indiana. Hi,
50:50
go ahead. Hi, hi, we've been wanting to
50:52
overturn Roe for once, just a few years
50:54
now. Now that it's done
50:57
and the states can make their own laws,
50:59
here comes the pro-life movement wanting to get
51:01
the federal government involved again. I
51:05
think that's a bad strategy. I think that
51:07
provokes the exact opposite of what we want.
51:09
I think it's much more likely to have
51:11
a pro-choice nine
51:14
month bill passing through Congress and
51:16
signed by some president than it is for
51:18
a pro-life bill. And I just
51:20
think it's a bad strategy. I'm
51:23
pro-life, I can't think of anything more sinful or
51:25
ugly than abortion or
51:27
selfish for that matter. But I just think it's
51:29
a bad strategy. Thank you very much. Thank you,
51:32
appreciate that. And I think- Although I'm not
51:34
saying that it shouldn't go to the
51:36
states. It should, I'm just
51:38
saying the Republican platform is
51:41
a statement of beliefs
51:44
and principles, right? Foundational
51:46
beliefs. And it also
51:49
can have policy. I mean, to me,
51:51
the way to get rid of
51:53
abortion in the country legally is
51:55
actually not a national abortion ban.
51:57
It is a constitutional amendment barring.
52:00
the practice. That used to be, by the
52:02
way, put up by
52:04
Republicans all the time. And yes, it would
52:06
fail. But so, keep putting it
52:08
up there until it succeeds. We
52:11
especially us thought Roe v. Wade
52:13
would always be intact, right? We
52:15
never thought the Supreme Court would
52:18
overturn Roe v. Wade, and that
52:20
happened. So maybe one
52:22
day the constitutional amendment could happen. Go
52:24
back to the days where you'd look
52:27
at polling on gay marriage, and
52:29
the left would be like, all right, we want gay marriage.
52:31
And everyone would be like, huh? Gay
52:34
marriage? It's got like 12% support.
52:36
Good luck with that, buddy. Legalizing
52:39
marijuana is another one like that. In
52:42
fact, go back long enough and you'll
52:44
find interracial marriage with 4% support in
52:46
this country, right?
52:49
And obviously, you'd be starting at a much higher
52:52
level for a constitutional
52:54
amendment for abortion. It would be
52:57
really hard. It's supposed to be really hard
52:59
to amend the Constitution, but worthwhile endeavor.
53:02
Endeavor, I think. Absolutely. Kevin,
53:05
in North Carolina. Hi. Yes.
53:09
So where has compromise actually gotten
53:11
the Republicans or the conservatives as
53:13
a movement, being one
53:15
of them? I would
53:17
have thought that we would learn by now that
53:20
they keep moving the marker. The other side keeps
53:22
moving it little by little by little. And
53:25
if you look at the abortion issue
53:27
to begin with, we keep hearing about
53:29
raping incest, raping incest. Well, what percentage
53:31
of abortions are actually related to raping
53:33
incest? It's almost not. It's almost it
53:35
is. Yeah, it's very tiny. Okay. It's
53:37
more about making money. This is a
53:39
business. There's a lot of people that
53:42
make a lot of money off
53:44
baby killing. And I
53:46
just think that it's solid. We shouldn't move on.
53:48
Some people may differ with that. But
53:51
being a father of three young children, my older
53:53
is the oldest to six. To
53:55
me, I don't see any movement on this
53:57
because if you move on this, then you're going to
53:59
move on. on everything else. You're going to move on
54:01
gun rights. You're going to move on all these different
54:03
topics. And that's just how
54:06
I feel about it. I mean, I'm sure you could get 50 different
54:09
opinions, but for me, I think our
54:11
Republicans as a whole, we're weak. And
54:14
it's because we keep bowing
54:16
to this sort of stuff. Like, okay, yeah, we
54:18
won't do that. Oh, you're right. We need
54:20
to back off. Why? Yeah.
54:23
And it's interesting because I think you
54:25
see the leftist
54:27
activists don't bend on this stuff, right? Never.
54:29
They say what they want. Never. They keep
54:32
going for it until they get it and
54:34
they keep going and going and going. That
54:36
being said, Barack Obama ran for president saying
54:39
he was against gay marriage when obviously he
54:41
wasn't. Right? Yeah. So the
54:43
second time he wound up changing that, but in 2008,
54:46
he ran for president and made a
54:48
pragmatic decision, I guess. I mean, I'm trying
54:50
to argue the other side here a little bit, but like,
54:53
you know, if you're thinking about politics, maybe that was
54:55
the right decision. You wind up getting it done. You
54:59
know, so I think you can argue that. To
55:01
me, I would just have liked, I don't
55:03
necessarily think you need to dive into every
55:05
policy that's going to, how you're going to
55:07
do this, you know, what you're going to
55:09
do in each state. What
55:11
I think would have been nice is a
55:13
message of moral clarity, that
55:16
every life deserves a
55:19
chance at living. You know, that is, you
55:21
don't necessarily need to dive into every little
55:23
bit of policy, but it is disconcerting
55:25
that, you know, they're really clear
55:27
about men being in women's sports,
55:29
which look, I'm passionate about. That
55:32
shouldn't happen. Me too. But it's way
55:34
less important than abortion. It's
55:37
not even close. Look, let's be
55:40
honest about it. I didn't care at all about
55:42
women's sports before Caitlin Clark anyway. If
55:44
men dominated all of women's sports, eh, I'd
55:46
probably shrug my shoulders a little bit. The
55:49
only exception if I have a daughter. So
55:51
now I kind of care if this happens
55:53
to her, but women's sports to me, not
55:56
foundational American stuff. And
55:58
I love all I, I. You know again,
56:01
I do actually care about that issue. I
56:03
don't want to blow it off But compare
56:05
it comparing it to a life not being
56:07
able to live Yeah It's
56:09
just not close and that's in the
56:11
platform that we're really morally clear about
56:13
when not being in women's sports That's
56:15
in the platform. We can't be clear
56:18
about abortion. It's amazing. It's
56:20
despicable really it really is because
56:23
you know Yeah,
56:25
there's a big difference there a big
56:27
big difference All right, you got a trophy
56:30
A man got a trophy in a woman's sport. It's
56:33
bad or yeah, it's bad bad It's irritating
56:35
it is but it's not the death of
56:37
a baby It
56:39
is not no triple-8 727
56:42
BECK more coming up in one minute All
56:46
right since the start of the swords of iron war
56:49
in Israel on October 7th We have
56:51
seen death and destruction in the Holy Land for more
56:53
than 40 years International fellowship of Christians
56:55
and Jews has been on the ground in Israel
56:58
and within hours of the war starting and
57:00
every day since they've been feeding the hungry
57:02
and protecting the vulnerable The
57:04
attacks continue in the north and the
57:07
south and Israel But there are resilient
57:09
survivors who bravely share their stories in
57:11
a series the fellowship calls faces of
57:13
iron Survivors like
57:15
Danny whose beloved daughter and her
57:17
husband were burned alive on
57:19
October 7th by Hamas terrorist Danny's
57:22
a commander of the volunteer fire and rescue
57:24
in his community Despite the fact
57:26
that there was fire equipment nearby Danny could do
57:28
nothing as his daughter's house burned to the ground
57:30
Good God These are the
57:32
types of people that IFC J is
57:34
helping Christians like you support Israel through
57:37
the international fellowship of Christians and Jews
57:40
Is that support that helps these survivors remain
57:42
steadfast and strong to hear more stories like
57:44
this one and to show your support? visit
57:47
visit I have Excuse
57:49
me visit support IFC J org. It's
57:51
not like Biden there support IFC J
57:54
org It's an important one.
57:56
Please stand up for Israel support
57:58
IFC J 10
58:01
seconds, Station ID. It's
58:13
Pat and Stu for Glenn this week. I think part of
58:15
the problem is that for
58:18
years we were told, hey,
58:21
don't even talk about abortion. Okay?
58:24
This is too controversial. It's too divisive.
58:28
And you're not going to get anywhere with
58:30
anybody anyway. You're not going to convince anybody
58:32
to be pro-life who's not, and you're not
58:34
going to convince anybody to be pro-choice who's
58:36
pro-life. So just don't talk about it. We
58:39
went along with that. And we believed it.
58:41
We were like, yeah, okay. All right. You're
58:43
right. That's probably too divisive. And so
58:46
year after year after year, it got
58:48
worse and worse and
58:51
worse because the left completely
58:53
controlled the discussion. And
58:56
then finally when we jumped in
58:58
and we got a president who
59:02
believed in the cause, at
59:04
least to a certain extent, and
59:07
put in three Supreme Court
59:10
justices who were absolutely pro-life, and he
59:12
kind of was okay with the litmus
59:14
test on that too. The left has
59:16
always been okay with, well, are you
59:18
pro-choice? And for the
59:20
left, if you weren't pro-choice, you couldn't be
59:22
a Supreme Court justice. So
59:24
I think Trump kind of went along with that
59:27
theory just the opposite. And you
59:29
had to have a litmus test that you were pro-life. And
59:32
he did. And it got
59:34
Roe v. Wade overturned. Incredible.
59:36
Incredible success. Something we thought could never happen. And
59:39
it's probably defensible to just say, look, the
59:41
platform doesn't mean that much, and
59:44
Donald Trump has a good record on this topic. Just
59:46
trust him once he gets in office, he'll be
59:48
the same guy. And that's probably true. Right? Like
59:51
he'll probably be pro-life. I
59:53
am concerned that he just seems very nervous about it.
59:56
Yeah. He doesn't seem as strong
59:58
as he does. was when
1:00:00
he ran the first time. Look,
1:00:03
it's risky. I've talked
1:00:05
to a lot of real conservatives who actually
1:00:08
are pro-life people who really care and just
1:00:10
say, look, this is toxic right now politically.
1:00:12
It's a problem. People are losing elections.
1:00:14
Good people who actually are pro-life are losing
1:00:16
elections over this and we just can't make
1:00:18
it the focus this time. Where's our friend
1:00:20
Dan on this? Dan Andros, who is one
1:00:22
of the most pro-life people I know. I
1:00:25
mean, he's definitely on our side. He's the
1:00:27
same. Yeah, he's not saying, yeah, you need
1:00:29
to moderate your position on this. No,
1:00:33
it's just tough to moderate when you're
1:00:35
talking about children's lives. I don't know.
1:00:39
I can understand political calculation and I
1:00:41
think the correct position for a politician
1:00:43
is probably, look, we want
1:00:46
there to be no ... We're pro-life.
1:00:49
We will take each step that we can
1:00:51
take so that fewer children have
1:00:55
their lives expired in this way. Right?
1:00:58
That doesn't mean we're going to get everything right now.
1:01:00
We're not going to get the constitutional amendment that Stu
1:01:02
wants. It's not going to happen. At some point
1:01:04
it might and we should take every bit of ground
1:01:06
we can get as it goes towards that direction. But
1:01:08
right now, what we can probably get is the states
1:01:10
and improve the state laws. That's probably what we can
1:01:12
get right now. It's a rational position. Yeah. Let's
1:01:15
go to Gary in North Carolina. Hey,
1:01:17
Gary, welcome. Hey, just
1:01:20
really quickly, if they pass this and they put that
1:01:22
in there, then the answer is no. It's
1:01:24
a line. I'm not going to call, so I'm not going to vote
1:01:26
for Trump. We'll not vote
1:01:28
for an RNC candidate that supports
1:01:30
that. I just won't.
1:01:32
We keep yielding ground. North
1:01:35
Carolina, both our senators in 2022
1:01:37
voted for the Save the
1:01:39
Marriage Act. And so, my senators
1:01:42
are getting progressively more left
1:01:44
than conservatives. And I'm just, I'm
1:01:47
tired of the, yeah, we'll put you in,
1:01:49
you'll change. And then you just drift to
1:01:51
the left instead of stand firm on issues
1:01:53
that are very clear. And so, if they
1:01:55
cross this line on abortion, then
1:01:58
no, I won't vote for them. It's
1:02:00
interesting. Thank you to Gary for the call. Even if you listen
1:02:02
to Gary and you say, gosh, you can't, we're not going to
1:02:04
vote for Donald Trump. Like this is going to be terrible. Like
1:02:08
the party needs to hear those voices. Those
1:02:10
people do exist. And, you know,
1:02:12
people who are super passionate about this
1:02:14
topic and will not bend on it
1:02:17
in a close election, they really matter. And
1:02:21
so I think there is a way- And in
1:02:23
a state like North Carolina. Yeah. Which is a
1:02:25
swing state. There is a way
1:02:27
I think to make those people feel comfortable
1:02:29
without blowing up, you know, every
1:02:32
suburban, you know, mom from
1:02:34
the Donald Trump campaign. Like
1:02:36
I understand, you know, I
1:02:39
know I'm not going to get everything I want on this. I
1:02:41
get it. I get it. I know I'm not going to be
1:02:43
pleased. I got it. But I
1:02:45
think you can do something for these people who,
1:02:47
by the way, have been the
1:02:49
foundation of the party for the
1:02:52
past 50 years. You
1:02:54
can't just blow them off
1:02:56
completely. It's a very risky strategy
1:02:59
if you do that. Yeah.
1:03:01
I mean, the RU-486 thing,
1:03:05
maybe that's the biggest issue for me because
1:03:09
that's where most abortions come from
1:03:11
now. Especially now. You
1:03:14
know, first, I mean, especially when
1:03:16
you have access in these areas, you know,
1:03:18
being cut off by good sensible laws, they
1:03:22
are now just shipping these things in from
1:03:24
India. They're just getting the pills shipped in
1:03:26
from India. And I'm like, well, okay, that
1:03:28
doesn't necessarily. All that long ago where RU-486
1:03:30
wasn't even legal in America. I don't
1:03:33
know, 15 years, 20 at
1:03:35
the most. Glenn

1:06:40
of great stuff on the network. It's been growing so
1:06:42
fast. By the way, new documentaries coming out. I've got
1:06:44
a new one coming out later this month, maybe or
1:06:46
next month, I don't know, it was the next few
1:06:48
weeks on sort of
1:06:51
the controversies with DEI, as DEI
1:06:53
in the sky. You
1:06:58
know the fact that like, hey, are we hiring
1:07:00
air traffic controllers based on the color of their
1:07:02
skin? That seems like a bad idea. Wow.
1:07:05
We go through that. I talked to a guy
1:07:09
who got a perfect score
1:07:12
on the air traffic control test and
1:07:15
did not get a job because his racial
1:07:17
answers did not line up to what, I
1:07:19
mean, his skin was the wrong tone, basically.
1:07:22
We go through the whole thing with him.
1:07:24
Wow. And I talked to him. Wow. He's
1:07:26
suing the government over this. And
1:07:28
it's incredible. Like not
1:07:31
to mention how broken down the
1:07:34
infrastructure is when it comes to air traffic control
1:07:36
to the extent that they are literally to
1:07:38
this day, it is what year 2024? They
1:07:42
are still using floppy
1:07:45
disks. What?
1:07:48
In 2024, a lot of the stuff. I
1:07:52
barely even remember what a floppy disk
1:07:54
is. Right. I
1:07:57
couldn't believe it. I was talking to this
1:07:59
guy, an expert in this. He's like, yes,
1:08:01
here it is. He shows me the documents.
1:08:03
They still do handwritten logs
1:08:05
of flights entering
1:08:07
the handwritten. Incredible.
1:08:10
It is absolutely insane. And so that's
1:08:12
coming up. And these have been
1:08:15
released basically every month, a new documentary on
1:08:17
a new topic from a different
1:08:19
host of Blaze TV. Really good series called Blaze
1:08:21
Originals. Can I tell you how much great
1:08:23
stuff there is on Blaze TV right now? And last
1:08:26
pitch for this, if you are going
1:08:29
into this election cycle and you
1:08:31
are looking at the way the media is covering
1:08:33
it and you think to yourself,
1:08:36
holy crap, we are
1:08:38
in serious trouble. We need to have
1:08:41
some actual news coverage about
1:08:43
these events and what is going on. I
1:08:46
can't encourage you enough to be part of Blaze TV
1:08:48
because we have put tons of resources,
1:08:50
tons of effort into making sure you're gonna get
1:08:52

November and beyond. So

1:09:09
we've been talking about the Republican
1:09:11
platform and how it
1:09:13
barely mentions anything
1:09:16
about abortion. So a
1:09:19
little strange. And
1:09:21
are you okay with it? Are you
1:09:23
okay with compromise on this particular issue? Let's go
1:09:25
to William in Kentucky. Hey, William. Hey,
1:09:29
how are you guys today? Good. First
1:09:32
time caller. Thanks for doing it. We appreciate
1:09:34
it. But I am
1:09:36
perfectly okay with the new platform.
1:09:39
Okay. I am, just
1:09:42
to let you know, I'm agnostic. So
1:09:45
I'm kind of a struggle of fence
1:09:47
on where life begins.
1:09:49
I know you guys believe,
1:09:52
I'm assuming you believe life begins
1:09:55
at a conception. And
1:09:58
I'm not there. Yeah. I
1:10:00
have no idea when life begins and
1:10:04
I am perfectly okay with compromising
1:10:07
to an extent. Late-term abortion,
1:10:09
I absolutely oppose, but
1:10:13
I think first trimester abortion is perfectly
1:10:17
reasonable. Not
1:10:20
me personally, I am pro-life. I would
1:10:23
never want any of my children to
1:10:25
have an abortion. I
1:10:27
would not do it. If anyone came to
1:10:29
me and asked me about it, I would give
1:10:31
them the pro-life spiel.
1:10:35
But I don't... Yeah,
1:10:37
I can tell you feel strongly about it. The
1:10:39
spiel. When you go into the spiel
1:10:41
of pro-life spiel. Okay,
1:10:45
so you wouldn't err on the side of
1:10:48
caution then necessarily, William?
1:10:51
I lean more towards the woman's right
1:10:53
to choose. Because I believe if there
1:10:56
is a God, if there
1:10:58
is a God and life begins that
1:11:00
conception and hits a sin against God,
1:11:03
I feel God will sort it out at
1:11:05
the end. Well, God can sort out late-term
1:11:07
abortions too and also murders when you're 45
1:11:09
years old, right? I mean, God's going to
1:11:11
sort all that out. You don't really have a choice on that stuff. No,
1:11:15
it's interesting because I think it's... To
1:11:19
me, it's pretty clear, but a
1:11:21
lot of people have these issues of figuring these lines
1:11:23
out. Just appeal to your sense
1:11:25
of, there's a lot of things I don't know, a
1:11:27
lot of things that I'm not an expert
1:11:29
in. And
1:11:31
when I have the opportunity to err on
1:11:33
the side of life, if I'm
1:11:36
admitting I'm not sure, like if
1:11:38
I don't know where that line is, why would
1:11:40
I make the line later? I
1:11:42
would think you'd want to protect life.
1:11:44
And I think if we think about this in a
1:11:46
way of just doing
1:11:49
what we can to consider the
1:11:51
person who we all know will
1:11:53
be a person, right? This is not like it's not like
1:11:55
it's not going to be a fern. This
1:11:58
is eventually going to be a human being. If we can
1:12:00
kind of think about what this is, because
1:12:02
I don't, I will say,
1:12:04
William, and I really seriously, legitimately appreciate
1:12:06
your call in explaining this, because you
1:12:09
are probably the majority. I think the majority
1:12:11
does support first term abortion. Second and third
1:12:13
term, it's not even close. Overwhelmingly
1:12:15
Americans oppose it. First term is
1:12:17
not that way. And I think it's
1:12:19
because, yeah, I don't know, you don't see the picture really on
1:12:22
the ultrasound. It doesn't really
1:12:24
look like a baby yet and all that, but
1:12:27
you do know- And the woman's right to
1:12:29
choose thing has been really compelling to people.
1:12:32
Well, okay, yeah. And I
1:12:34
agree, you should choose on your own body. But
1:12:36
there's another body at stake here. And
1:12:39
that's the one inside of you that's a
1:12:41
separate body with separate DNA and separate
1:12:44
limbs and eyes and ears and a
1:12:46
brain and a heart and
1:12:48
all these things that matter. If
1:12:51
you're saying only the woman can
1:12:54
choose and it's between her and her
1:12:56
doctor, well, you're
1:12:59
just completely discounting the other body
1:13:01
inside, right? And to
1:13:03
me, that is so wrong.
1:13:06
We lost William there, but I think it
1:13:08
comes down to if you're going to
1:13:11
have a middling position on this, right? You
1:13:13
have to pick a day. You have
1:13:16
to pick a moment. You have to pick a second where
1:13:19
this turns from something that's totally
1:13:21
fine into a crime, right? It
1:13:23
turns from something that
1:13:25
is just a
1:13:27
clump of cells into
1:13:30
a human body that the life is ending.
1:13:33
If you're like a person that says, okay,
1:13:35
that's seven months, whatever it is, well, why
1:13:37
isn't it six months and 30 days? Why
1:13:40
isn't it, you're going to
1:13:43
have to give me, you're going to
1:13:45
have to draw a second where that
1:13:47
clock ticks and that turns from nothing
1:13:50
into a life. That decision's
1:13:52
really easy when you make it at conception. It's
1:13:55
not easy and to be
1:13:58
frank, doesn't make any sense. to put
1:14:00
that at three months or
1:14:02
four months or 15 weeks or
1:14:05
six weeks. Like- A
1:14:07
lot of people now put it at 21 weeks because
1:14:09
that seems to be when the fetus
1:14:11
is viable. That's that was- When the baby can survive
1:14:14
outside the womb. Today it is, right? It was 24,
1:14:16
25, 26 weeks when they did reverse this way. Right,
1:14:19
it could be 15 each next year. Exactly.
1:14:22
We don't know. And at the end of
1:14:24
the day, it doesn't make any sense to
1:14:26
make that determination because
1:14:29
what you're doing is, I mean, I thought
1:14:31
about this with, what was the guy in
1:14:33
Philly? The guy who went to prison, abortionist.
1:14:36
Yeah, Grover. Wasn't
1:14:39
it? Yeah. What was his name? I look
1:14:41
that up, I'm all figured out. I can't remember his name off the top of
1:14:43
my head. It should be one that's in the, and I
1:14:46
could feel Abby Johnson, who's incredible on the
1:14:48
life issue, yelling the name at the radio
1:14:50
right now. So I apologize for not remembering
1:14:53
this monster's name. Luckily, he's no longer in
1:14:55
our lives. He's been put away for a
1:14:57
very long time. But
1:15:01
what's fascinating about his story
1:15:04
was many of the abortions he- Kermit Gosnell.
1:15:06
Kermit, I knew it was a weird name.
1:15:08
Kermit Gosnell. I had the
1:15:10
wrong Sesame Street character. I went Grover.
1:15:13
I took her over. I took her
1:15:15
over. No, it was Kermit. And I
1:15:17
almost blamed Grover Norquist for this. He
1:15:19
is not guilty of these crimes. It
1:15:23
is Kermit Gosnell. And what's
1:15:25
fascinating about that, a lot of people are like, gosh, that
1:15:27
was the worst thing I've ever seen. This
1:15:30
man was taking babies and killing
1:15:32
them late-term, ripping them out and
1:15:34
ending their lives. Many
1:15:37
of the abortions that
1:15:39
he committed, the murders he committed, happened
1:15:41
a week after the deadline.
1:15:45
Meaning if he had done this stuff a week
1:15:47
earlier, he's not in prison. Just perfectly fine. He's
1:15:49
at a country club with a Porsche. Yeah. Right?
1:15:53
What kind, what sane
1:15:56
society would do this?
1:15:59
Throw a guy in jail. jail for 50 years
1:16:01
for a two or three day time
1:16:03
period where he does the exact same
1:16:05
thing, that makes no
1:16:07
sense at all. And
1:16:09
I think the problem here when
1:16:11
you're talking about this, at
1:16:13
some level government has to make these sort of indiscriminate
1:16:16
lines, but morally we
1:16:18
certainly don't have to make them. And
1:16:21
look, it's just not about choice. To
1:16:24
put this last, and we have a million
1:16:27
calls on this, we'll get to them here in a second. It's
1:16:29
not about women's choice. This is not a women's choice
1:16:31
issue in any way. Because frankly,
1:16:33
if you talk to any, if God came
1:16:35
down today and came on the air and
1:16:37
just came into this third chair we have
1:16:39
here, was like, hello, parents too. And
1:16:42
said, by the way, I really appreciate all the
1:16:44
stuff you say about abortion, but actually I don't
1:16:46
care. It's not a big deal to me. If
1:16:49
until they come out of that birth canal, basically
1:16:51
it means nothing to me. So
1:16:53
I appreciate where you guys have been, but honestly, you
1:16:56
don't have to care about that other life anymore because
1:16:58
it's not life. Let's just say it happened. It's not
1:17:00
going to happen. Let's just say it happened. If it
1:17:02
happened, none of us would care.
1:17:05
You could go ahead, abort, abort, abort,
1:17:07
abort, abort. If it's not life, I
1:17:10
don't care if you abort it. Secondarily,
1:17:12
if it is life, if God came down to
1:17:14
liberals and said this, whatever their God is, came
1:17:16
down to liberals and said, hey. Well,
1:17:18
it'd be Gaia. It is. Gaia would come
1:17:21
down. Gaia comes down and says, hey liberals.
1:17:25
I know what you've been saying about the whole,
1:17:27
hey, you can kill children in the womb thing,
1:17:29
but wow, that really matters to me. You can't.
1:17:31
That's real life in there. In theory,
1:17:33
you would assume every liberal would say, holy crap,
1:17:36
it is murder. Well,
1:17:38
then of course we don't want it to happen. The
1:17:40
point is only about the life
1:17:43
in the womb. It is not
1:17:45
about women's choice at all. The
1:17:48
woman going through this is incredibly
1:17:50
important and it's why you have ...
1:17:52
We talk about supporting them after the birth. We
1:17:54
talk about helping them through these
1:17:56
decisions. It is incredibly important and
1:17:58
not easy. You know, God forbid you go
1:18:00
through one of these terrible scenarios that ends in a pregnancy, not
1:18:03
easy at all. At the end of
1:18:05
the day, it's about the decision is made
1:18:07
about the life. Conservatives,
1:18:10
if it was just removing a few cells, a clump of
1:18:12
cells that we did not think was life, we
1:18:14
wouldn't care. No conservatives like, I
1:18:17
oppose women's rights to remove tumors. Like
1:18:20
there's no conservative with that position because
1:18:22
it's not about women's choice, it's about
1:18:24
the other life. Right. Exactly
1:18:26
right. All right. Let's go.

This is the Glenn Beck program.

1:19:58
and Stu for Glenn. Let's go. to
1:20:00
Kent in Utah. Hey Kent, you're
1:20:02
on the Glenn Beck program with Patten Stu. Thank
1:20:05
you. Happy to be here. I
1:20:08
wanted to let you know, from my
1:20:10
position on abortion is I am wholly
1:20:12
against it. I think
1:20:15
it's, as you guys have
1:20:17
described, I think it's murder, but I think it's
1:20:19
the sin of our generation. That
1:20:21
being said, as
1:20:24
we've listened to the discussion today,
1:20:26
it reminds me of
1:20:29
the negotiations that the delegates had
1:20:31
during the signing of the Declaration
1:20:33
of Independence, where there was
1:20:35
a paragraph in there about
1:20:37
slavery. And as the
1:20:39
days became, as it became
1:20:42
time to approve or not the Declaration
1:20:44
of Independence, John Adams,
1:20:46
I believe, was vehemently against removing
1:20:49
the paragraph, but if he had not done
1:20:51
so, it would never have
1:20:53
been approved. Well, it wouldn't have been
1:20:55
approved unanimously. That's true. There were two
1:20:57
states opposing it. Which
1:20:59
was required to have it passed. And
1:21:02
so the step the
1:21:04
men took, I believe, was to
1:21:07
concede their values in some
1:21:10
way against slavery, to get
1:21:12
the independence first, and then... Yes, and then
1:21:14
fight that battle later, which they did with
1:21:17
the death of 700,000 Americans.
1:21:19
I don't know if I would necessarily put
1:21:21
that on my top of
1:21:24
my resume for decisions all the
1:21:26
time. I didn't necessarily turn up.
1:21:28
But I mean, I think it's
1:21:30
a rational argument that pragmatism is
1:21:32
real. It's not all just people
1:21:34
folding for their own personal benefits.
1:21:36
Sometimes you have to do these
1:21:38
things. It's not where I stand
1:21:40
on it, but
1:21:42
I do understand why people are
1:21:45
there. I've talked to real
1:21:47
conservatives who really think, look, and
1:21:50
I think there's a reason to believe as well that
1:21:52
maybe Donald Trump gets in there, and he's walking
1:21:55
these lines for politics now, and he gets in
1:21:57
there, and he is the same guy he was
1:21:59
in 2016. which obviously turned
1:22:01
out pretty well for pro-life causes. Mm-hmm. So,
1:22:03
I mean, I think that's a totally defensible
1:22:06
position. I just wish there's a little bit
1:22:08
more, you know, a little bit more in
1:22:10
the platform. That being said, maybe nobody cares
1:22:13
about it. Maybe it's
1:22:15
just like, it's just meaningless and no one
1:22:17
ever reads them anyway and why should we
1:22:19
bother, who cares? I just, it's kind
1:22:22
of an important issue, Pat. An important
1:22:24
one to me. Me too. Me

1:25:28
on this and and he
1:25:30
has now he has he has George Clooney
1:25:32
has announced his position so it's over it's
1:25:34
over now I've got one way or the
1:25:36
other it's over we played
1:25:38
you a very suspicious announcement from
1:25:40
Nancy Pelosi earlier on the program
1:25:42
we have that handy by any
1:25:45
chance listen this is bizarre because
1:25:47
Joe Biden came out and has
1:25:49
been saying all week I'm
1:25:51
not going anywhere now almost it'll be two weeks
1:25:53
tomorrow yeah he's been saying it the whole time
1:25:55
yep over and over and over and over again
1:25:58
and starting Monday really put the full before court
1:26:00
pressed on this. I'm releasing a letter. I am
1:26:02
staying in every speech. I am staying in. And
1:26:05
we have not heard much from Nancy Pelosi
1:26:07
on this topic. We finally did hear from
1:26:10
her on MSNBC today, specifically
1:26:12
challenged on what she thinks should happen.
1:26:14
Here's what she said. Does he have
1:26:16
your support to be the head of
1:26:18
the Democratic ticket? As long as the
1:26:20
president has the president, it's up to the
1:26:22
president to subside if he is going to
1:26:24
run. We're all encouraging him
1:26:27
to make that decision because
1:26:30
time is running short. I
1:26:34
think overwhelming support of the caucus, it's not
1:26:36
for me to say. I'm not the head
1:26:39
of the caucus anymore. But he's
1:26:42
beloved. He is
1:26:44
respected. Is he? And people want
1:26:46
him to make that decision. Yes, he
1:26:48
has said he has made the decision. He
1:26:50
has said firmly this week, he is going
1:26:52
to run. Do you want him to run?
1:26:55
I want him to do whatever he decides
1:26:58
to do. And that's the way it is.
1:27:00
Whatever he decides, we go with. Well,
1:27:02
yeah, he already said he decided. That's
1:27:05
amazing. It is amazing. You
1:27:07
can't take a side on
1:27:09
that? You have to. It's
1:27:11
so awkward and so intentional.
1:27:14
She is cold as ice. Cold
1:27:18
as ice, man. Man, she is a
1:27:20
machine. Even in her age that she
1:27:22
can't say decide anymore, she's
1:27:24
still a cold-blooded political machine. It's up to
1:27:27
the president to subside. To
1:27:30
subside. It really is up to
1:27:32
the president to subside. Now, George Clooney does not even address
1:27:38
what Nancy Pelosi said. The subsiding
1:27:40
of the president. No. But
1:27:43
we have seen another major official
1:27:46
come out as well of TMZ kind
1:27:48
of cornered George Stephanopoulos. This is after
1:27:52
the interview and everything and
1:27:54
asked him, hey, like, what do you think about? And
1:27:56
it's amazing that he would think this is a bad thing. I don't think he would. I
1:28:00
think Stephanopoulos knew he was being recorded,
1:28:02
but I mean, how do you not know? You're
1:28:05
a big time news anchor. You're
1:28:08
supposedly a journalist. You got
1:28:10
to be careful with that stuff, right? But he wasn't. Now,
1:28:13
it was the question was, do you think Biden
1:28:15
should step down? You've talked to him more than
1:28:17
anybody else has lately. And George's response was, quote,
1:28:19
I don't think he can serve four more years.
1:28:21
Now, he's apologized for that. Why would
1:28:24
you apologize for your opinion on that? Or
1:28:26
he's apologized for telling the truth. The first
1:28:28
time he's ever done it, so now he's
1:28:30
very nervous. He's lost his
1:28:32
entire character of lying, and he's telling
1:28:34
the truth. It's a fascinating
1:28:36
thing because you know who else knows that he won't serve
1:28:38
four more years? All humans. Yeah.
1:28:43
All human beings know this is
1:28:46
not possible. He's not going to
1:28:48
make it to 87 years old in the White House.
1:28:50
That's not going to occur. George
1:28:53
Clooney is out, Pat, and he
1:28:56
says this, a new headline, Op-Ed for
1:28:58
The New York Times, which has really
1:29:00
been leading the charge on this stuff
1:29:02
from the beginning. Interestingly. Uh-huh.
1:29:04
He says, I love Joe Biden, but we
1:29:06
need a new nominee by
1:29:09
George Clooney. Holy cow. Now,
1:29:11
you might say, okay, again, George
1:29:14
Clooney is a very prominent actor. Huge
1:29:16
fundraiser, though, for the Democratic Party. That's
1:29:19
the important thing here. They just held
1:29:21
a massive fundraiser for him that I
1:29:23
think they took in the most money
1:29:25
in a single night ever. He mentions
1:29:27
this, yeah. Last month, I co-hosted the
1:29:29
single largest fundraiser supporting any Democratic candidate
1:29:32
ever, a month ago. Jeez.
1:29:35
For President Biden's reelection. Yeah, it was like 30 million
1:29:37
in one night. He says, I
1:29:39
love Joe Biden as a senator, as a vice
1:29:41
president, and a president. I consider him a friend.
1:29:43
I believe in him, believe in his character, believe
1:29:45
in his morals. Uh-huh. It's
1:29:47
just incredible. Yeah. The
1:29:50
last four years, he's won, I mean, the guy did
1:29:52
have a tequila company. Maybe he's drunk writing this. I
1:29:55
believe in his morals. In the
1:29:57
last four years, he's won many of the battles
1:29:59
he's faced. But the one battle
1:30:01
he cannot win is
1:30:03
the fight against time. Wow, that
1:30:05
was beautiful. Beautifully put. None of
1:30:08
us can, Pat. Okay. It's devastating to
1:30:10
say it, but the Joe Biden, I
1:30:12
was with three- Devastating. I'm
1:30:14
devastated. I'm devastated. Yeah. The Biden I
1:30:17
was with three weeks ago at the
1:30:19
fundraiser was not the Joe big effing
1:30:21
deal Biden of 2010. He
1:30:24
wasn't even the Joe Biden of 2020. He's
1:30:28
admitting that he noticed the decline when
1:30:30
he was with him. Before the debate.
1:30:33
Oh my gosh. That's interesting
1:30:35
to me. This is an interesting nugget. You
1:30:37
raised $30 million for the guy. And now,
1:30:40
only now, a month later, we're
1:30:42
hearing that he wasn't in good shape. Can
1:30:45
you imagine being one of these donors? You
1:30:47
just got bilked out of
1:30:49
$30 million. And
1:30:51
they're just like, oh yeah, by the way, we knew the
1:30:53
whole time he had no chance of being president. Listen
1:30:57
to the way he phrases this. It's devastating to say
1:30:59
it, but the Joe Biden, I was with three weeks
1:31:01
ago at the fundraiser, was not the Joe big effing
1:31:03
deal Biden of 2010. He wasn't even the Joe Biden
1:31:05
of 2020. He was the
1:31:07
same man we all witnessed at the
1:31:09
debate. That's
1:31:13
huge. Huge. So it was
1:31:15
not a one-time thing. He
1:31:18
is saying- Which
1:31:20
will, though. But of course. I mean, this is silly.
1:31:22
But come on. But he's admitting it. He's admitting that he saw it.
1:31:25
He goes on and he says, was he tired? Yes.
1:31:28
A cold? Maybe. But
1:31:30
our party leaders need to stop
1:31:33
telling us that 51 million people
1:31:35
didn't see what we just saw.
1:31:38
And that, I mean, what a reinforcement
1:31:41
that a guy who's this big
1:31:43
an ally of Joe Biden, enough
1:31:45
to hold this fundraiser and
1:31:48
talk all of his Hollywood big
1:31:50
shot friends into donating up to
1:31:52
$30 million. That's
1:31:55
not a piece, but collectively. That's a lot of
1:31:57
money. That's a lot of money. I mean, if
1:31:59
you- ever done a fundraiser, you
1:32:01
know they're not easy, you know? Even
1:32:04
for great causes, let alone crappy
1:32:06
causes like this one. Yeah. So,
1:32:09
30 million dollars is
1:32:11
raised and you've got this guy
1:32:13
who raised it saying, yeah, he's
1:32:15
bad, he's in bad shape, yeah,
1:32:18
he can't continue. This is
1:32:20
not the same dude that
1:32:22
people think they
1:32:25
voted for in 2020. That's incredible.
1:32:27
That's huge to me. Wow. And
1:32:30
I think, look, the Clooney thing is big. That
1:32:33
Pelosi clip is massive. Yeah. Because this
1:32:37
is someone in leadership basically saying, hey
1:32:39
Joe, what was your
1:32:41
answer on that? You should think about
1:32:43
it again and answer again. Well, that's
1:32:45
what she's saying without saying it. Right.
1:32:47
She's saying, you're wrong, Joe. Think about
1:32:50
it again. Because it's not like she
1:32:52
didn't hear him say it. She knows he
1:32:54
said it. Right. And the
1:32:57
host states it right back to her face. She
1:33:00
is basically telling, that's basically
1:33:02
her saying publicly, step down.
1:33:05
And to the point where she's so
1:33:07
old and also can't speak, she says
1:33:09
he has to subside whether he's going
1:33:12
to step down. She's incoherent too. It's
1:33:14
up to the president to subside. It
1:33:18
is. It's a combination,
1:33:20
I think, of secede and
1:33:23
decide. And decide, I think. Perhaps. Or
1:33:25
it's just a drunk slur. Is it
1:33:27
step aside and secede? You're giving her
1:33:29
too much credit. I think she's just
1:33:31
hammered. But I
1:33:34
will say that that's significant. And
1:33:36
if I am Joe Biden, I
1:33:39
don't care
1:33:42
what George Clooney says or what Nancy
1:33:44
Pelosi says. My nomination. I
1:33:46
probably care more about what George Clooney
1:33:49
says than Nancy Pelosi. Because he's the
1:33:51
big fundraiser. Nancy Pelosi is not doing
1:33:53
squat for you. I would just get
1:33:55
angry at Pelosi. Right? Like screw you.
1:33:57
You're a hundred years old too. Right.
1:34:00
I mean, is she older than him? I want to say she's older
1:34:02
than him. Am I wrong about that? No, I think she is. I
1:34:05
think she is. Is she 83? I
1:34:07
want to say she's 83. Now,
1:34:09
she did step down from leadership. She's 84. Wow.
1:34:13
She did step down. I mean, she's older
1:34:15
than Mitch McConnell, Joe Biden, and Donald Trump
1:34:17
by significant margins. She
1:34:20
did step down from leadership, but not because she said
1:34:22
she was incapable of doing the
1:34:24
job, and she kept the seat. She
1:34:27
has nothing to speak for. I mean, it's
1:34:29
insanity that she's doing this. Now,
1:34:31
part of this is because I really want Joe Biden to
1:34:34
remain the nominee, and that's probably somewhat
1:34:36
revealing to Democrats
1:34:38
who might be listening as to what they
1:34:40
should do, right? If
1:34:43
Pat and Stu are saying, I think
1:34:46
Joe Biden should remain the nominee, you probably don't
1:34:48
want him as the nominee. I know if I
1:34:50
were a Democrat, I would have been arguing years
1:34:52
ago. No way, another term with this
1:34:55
guy. No way. We lucked out in 2020.
1:34:57
Somehow we're here.
1:35:00
I don't want Kamala Harris either. I want
1:35:03
a real freaking primary. Make
1:35:06
him fight his way
1:35:08
through this field like every other person. If
1:35:10
he wins, he wins, but I
1:35:12
don't want him. He should step
1:35:14
down immediately. In fact, I would probably have been
1:35:17
demanding him stepping down a couple of years ago
1:35:21
from the presidency, not just the campaign. I
1:35:24
want him out from there, even as a Democrat.
1:35:26
If you care about the country, that's
1:35:28
what you would want. Oh, yeah, but I'm
1:35:31
a Democrat, so I wouldn't necessarily- That's the
1:35:33
thing. There you go. All right. Triple eight,

1:35:51
it be nice to live in a world where your

credit card balance wasn't hit with compound interest? It
1:35:56
would be a great world to live in.
1:35:58
Unfortunately, we don't live in that. world. And
1:36:01
if you're not making those payments, you got to deal with the compound

1:36:05
with all the debt up to your eyeballs. Well,
1:36:07
what about the kind of debt that can wipe out your
1:36:10
savings? What about the kind of debt that can set you

back years, if not permanently? Do you want to avoid that
1:36:14
kind of debt? Probably, if you're a
1:36:16
fiscally responsible person, you should be able to find
1:36:18
a little time in your day to give the

mortgage consultants over at American Financing a quick call.

1:38:16
books Jeffy every week. All right. Speaking
1:38:18
of which, you're gonna be gone tomorrow, right? I
1:38:21
am, going on a little vacation with my wife a couple
1:38:23
of nights. Going to a cooler locale? Yes, a
1:38:25
place that's not 134 degrees every day. That
1:38:28
will be very, very nice. Well, global warming,
1:38:30
if you weren't such a global warming denier,
1:38:34
maybe we could do something about this, Stu. Maybe
1:38:36
we could change the climate on this planet. What
1:38:38
would you do? If you would
1:38:40
just get on board, okay? With
1:38:43
spending the kind of money it's gonna take. Okay.
1:38:46
And living the kind of life that it's going to take
1:38:48
to change the climate. How much money we talking about here?
1:38:50
I'd like chicken feed, like 190 to 100 million, or
1:38:56
I'm sorry, trillion.
1:38:59
Wait, trillion? Maybe quadrillion. Okay,
1:39:01
now it's probably quadrillion. Wait,
1:39:04
but hold on, let me just ask you
1:39:06
this one, one minor question on this. Okay,
1:39:08
one minor question. You were telling me a
1:39:10
little while ago that you already passed the
1:39:12
most consequential climate bill of
1:39:14
all time, the inflation
1:39:16
reduction act. So
1:39:21
now you need another $100 trillion? $100
1:39:24
trillion, yes, right.
1:39:26
Because I'm a little concerned that
1:39:29
maybe this is a bottomless pit.
1:39:31
I need a million, trillion, thousand
1:39:33
dollars to do it. Okay. A
1:39:36
thousand trillion million billion
1:39:39
to do this. And look,
1:39:44
let me put it this way. And
1:39:52
I really mean that. Did you beat Medicare? I
1:39:55
beat Medicare. I did beat Medicare. Thank
1:39:57
you for the reminder, Dan. one
1:40:00
more question while we're on that topic. Cause you know, you're
1:40:02
asking for a hundred trillion. Can I just ask you about
1:40:04
million billion? Can I ask you about $230 million for a
1:40:06
second? Okay. That
1:40:08
was the cost of the pier you built.
1:40:11
The piazza. And
1:40:13
it didn't do
1:40:15
anything. And now
1:40:17
they're deconstructing it because it
1:40:19
failed completely. Love that story
1:40:22
by the way. I will say it might
1:40:24
be my favorite story. It is
1:40:27
every Joe Biden policy in
1:40:30
a nutshell. It starts off with
1:40:32
these big expectations, these incredible warm
1:40:34
feelings for all the good it's
1:40:36
going to do. We're altruistic. Yeah.
1:40:39
We're actually going to feed the people
1:40:41
that we're eliminating
1:40:43
as well on the side. But
1:40:46
I mean, America does that, right?
1:40:48
We dropped food
1:40:50
to the Afghans. Cause the theory obviously is
1:40:52
that we're just, we're fighting against the government,
1:40:54
not the people. So we're trying to feed
1:40:56
the people. And they're doing that
1:40:58
again here. But everybody
1:41:01
said, look, Hamas
1:41:03
doesn't want this. You're
1:41:05
going to be attacked while you're building it. And they were.
1:41:08
And they were. But I think this
1:41:10
is so reminiscent of all of their policies.
1:41:12
You got the supposed feel good intentions. You
1:41:15
got the gushingly positive media attention, highlighting all
1:41:17
the caring reasons we're doing this. You've
1:41:19
got the sort of legalistic rule bending they do on
1:41:21
all this stuff. This one was,
1:41:24
we don't have any troops on the ground.
1:41:27
We've got troops on a
1:41:29
pier 20 feet from the
1:41:31
ground. That's not real. The
1:41:33
back flips they had to do to make that work. So
1:41:37
ridiculous. It never had a realistic possibility
1:41:39
of solving the problem. It
1:41:42
was massively expensive. It was
1:41:44
massively over budget. Of
1:41:46
course, the result of it, we
1:41:48
immediately knew it was doing
1:41:51
less good than was promised. And
1:41:53
sure enough, Hamas didn't allow it.
1:41:55
And Hamas stole a lot of
1:41:58
this. We were actually helping. terrorists
1:42:00
with it. The peer literally
1:42:03
crumbled into pieces just like all of
1:42:05
his other policies. And,
1:42:08
of course, the failure of the
1:42:10
idea never really gets acknowledged. We don't
1:42:12
really have a conversation as to why we
1:42:15
allowed this to happen in the first place.
1:42:17
I will say I don't ever remember a
1:42:19
bill being passed to fund $230 million. They
1:42:21
just redirected it from
1:42:24
other sources. But like, at some point,
1:42:26
shouldn't they be held responsible for this
1:42:28
massive failure? No,
1:42:31
because nobody ever is. Nobody
1:42:34
ever is. It's like they just built a
1:42:36
building and it fell over. I know. Like,
1:42:38
wouldn't the construction company get some blame for
1:42:40
that? You would think. You'd think. But no,
1:42:42
here, we're all going to just... They built
1:42:44
a giant metal Lego set in the sea
1:42:46
that got rolled over the first
1:42:48
time a wave came by and we're all like,
1:42:50
gosh, there's a surprise. Well, he really meant well.
1:42:54
Sure, he took $230 million. Think
1:42:56
about that amount, Pat. Like, all
1:42:59
of the money you will ever pay
1:43:01
in taxes your entire life went to
1:43:03
fund one half of one of the
1:43:05
Lego pieces to build that pier that
1:43:09
ended up in the ocean that did
1:43:11
nothing for anybody. We've been so desensitized to
1:43:14
the money that the government spends though. People
1:43:16
think, $230 million is not bad. It is
1:43:20
really true. People don't even acknowledge
1:43:22
it. Nope. I mean, I think it could
1:43:24
be $230 billion and people
1:43:26
might not be necessarily moved. Yep.
1:43:30
It takes over a trillion dollars now to
1:43:32
get us to even pay attention. And that's
1:43:35
how we wound up in the situation we're in. Speaking
1:43:39
of what's going on in the Middle
1:43:41
East, did you see Kamala Harris's response
1:43:43
to the anti-Israeli
1:43:46
protesters? She
1:43:48
was asked about, I guess,
1:43:50
their motives and things. And what
1:43:52
she had to say was they're showing
1:43:55
exactly what the human emotion should be.
1:43:59
Wait, huh? What? What does that
1:44:01
even mean? Showing exactly what the human
1:44:03
emotion should be? Is the human
1:44:05
emotion that we should all hate Israel or
1:44:07
Jews? Or what are you talking about? Mmm.
1:44:11
Just bizarre. And these are the people
1:44:14
leading the way. And you
1:44:16
wonder why we're in the situation we're in. It's
1:44:24
up to the president to subside
1:44:26
Glenn Beck. For
1:44:30
years I was living in constant pain.
1:44:32
There were days I couldn't move my
1:44:34
hands, I couldn't paint, I couldn't write.
1:44:36
Honestly it was so bad I had
1:44:38
a hard time even doing work. I
1:44:40
tried to tough it out, just grin
1:44:42
and bear it, until Tanya finally, after
1:44:44
we went to the Mayo Clinic, we
1:44:46
went everywhere. And Tanya had heard about
1:44:48
Relief Factor on the blaze, and she
1:44:50
said, why don't you try that? She
1:44:52
kind of pretty much made me try
1:44:54
it, and it was amazing. It's been
1:44:56
a miracle. Relief Factor is 100% drug
1:44:58

1:45:10

1:45:12

1:46:08
forget if you're looking for the tastiest cookie on
1:46:11
the planet. I'd love a tasty cookie. kexy.com.
1:46:13
How do I spell that though? K-E-K-S-I,
1:46:15
it's like sexy with a K. Well,
1:46:18
and spelled differently. Obviously. So
1:46:20
nothing like, it just rhymes with sexy.
1:46:22
Okay, that might be the better way
1:46:24
to say it. Yeah, it rhymes, that's
1:46:26
about it. Kexy cookies, they're delicious. 15%
1:46:29
off right now too. My wife brought
1:46:32
home, she experiments with stuff and tries out
1:46:34
new flavors and we got this new flavor,
1:46:37
coffee cake cookie. Oh, yes. You
1:46:40
like coffee cake? Yes. Sitting all over the top. Oh,
1:46:42
she brought it home. And I, you know, I can't
1:46:44
eat this because of diabetes, but I did have a
1:46:46
bite of it. Oh my
1:46:49
gosh. Wait, but. Unreal. Now
1:46:51
my understanding is. It's available in August, but not right now. My
1:46:53
understanding is when you take a bite of something you are eating
1:46:55
it, is that not true? No, I spit
1:46:57
it out. Yeah, sure
1:47:00
you did. Yeah,
1:47:02
I just spit it right up, but it was delicious. All
1:47:05
right, so who
1:47:07
will Donald J. Trump select
1:47:10
as vice president? The
1:47:12
speculation has been really rampant lately because
1:47:14
there's so many rumors. He's gonna decide
1:47:16
today. He decided yesterday, but he's gonna
1:47:19
tell us tomorrow. He's gonna decide during
1:47:21
the convention. He's gonna decide right before
1:47:23
it. He's gonna decide after it. There's
1:47:25
not gonna be a vice president. I've
1:47:28
heard all of it. It's so ridiculous. Which
1:47:30
is it? It's been fun in a way
1:47:32
because if you know Donald Trump and you
1:47:34
know the way he operates and his campaign
1:47:36
operates, this has just been him screwing with
1:47:38
the media for months. Yeah. Like, you know.
1:47:40
He does enjoy that. Yes, it's just like
1:47:42
a yo-yo. He just keeps putting it out
1:47:44
there and bringing it back in. They have
1:47:46
said literally every combination of everything. He's
1:47:49
already made the decision. He won't make the decision for
1:47:51
a long time. He's got a huge field. He's down
1:47:53
to the last couple. The latest
1:47:55
report was he's down to three. I
1:47:58
actually heard two. They seem
1:48:00
to be jamming Rubio in now.
1:48:02
Yeah. So the two are
1:48:05
Doug Burgum, Burgumentum in effect. Any sense
1:48:07
to me? I don't understand that one.
1:48:09
I don't really get it either, but
1:48:12
I mean, he's supposedly good on energy.
1:48:14
Yeah. You know, so, but like,
1:48:16
I don't know. There was
1:48:18
a thought at one point because of his fundraising
1:48:20
difficulties several months ago. Yeah,
1:48:23
that's not an issue now. Not an issue. Not to
1:48:25
mention he's a billionaire. If he wants to put money in his campaign, he used to
1:48:27
put it in his campaign. Yeah. And
1:48:29
of course he also has lots of other billionaires
1:48:31
that support him. I don't think money is going
1:48:33
to determine this election. I
1:48:36
never bought it. And
1:48:38
Burgum isn't like Elon Musk, right? Like,
1:48:40
isn't he only a hundred millionaire? Like
1:48:42
he's not even a billionaire. I don't
1:48:44
think. I don't think so. But
1:48:46
he's not like, again, that's a
1:48:48
lot of money. Yeah. But throwing
1:48:51
an extra hundred million. He doesn't live in a double
1:48:53
wide trailer and he doesn't wonder where his next meal
1:48:55
is coming from. That's true. But
1:48:57
I don't think a billionaire. The fact that he might
1:48:59
throw a hundred million dollars of his personal money into
1:49:01
this campaign, does that really move the needle for you
1:49:03
if you're Donald Trump? Like so?
1:49:05
Yeah. It's not really going to
1:49:07
make the determination as to who wins or loses this campaign,
1:49:09
I don't think. So Burgum is up
1:49:11
there. And then J.D.
1:49:14
Vance was the other one mentioned as
1:49:16
the top two candidates. From Ohio. Senator
1:49:18
from Ohio, 39 years old. He
1:49:21
is very well aligned with the sort of
1:49:24
America First MAGA platform. Well he's adopted all
1:49:26
of the MAGA platforms. He's changed quite a
1:49:28
bit. He's changed ideals. He has changed quite
1:49:30
a bit over the years. He was a
1:49:32
Trump critic in 2016. Obviously
1:49:35
well known for his book, Hillbilly
1:49:38
Elegy, which kind of gives
1:49:40
you the terrible story
1:49:42
of life in the Midwest
1:49:44
and drugs and opioids. But
1:49:48
he tells a story of the real problems of that
1:49:50
area, which I think is an interesting thing that's been
1:49:52
a little overlooked with him. A lot of people say,
1:49:55
well, he's from Ohio. He's going to win Ohio anyway.
1:50:00
is in a region of states
1:50:02
that he really does need to
1:50:04
win with problems he's incredibly well
1:50:06
familiarized with. He
1:50:08
knows the issues affecting that region
1:50:11
really well. So
1:50:13
I think that is something to
1:50:15
consider politically. And then the other
1:50:17
one was mentioned was Marco Rubio. As we
1:50:19
talked about, there is an issue with
1:50:21
two candidates coming from Florida, but it's solvable.
1:50:24
They'll figure a way out of that if they
1:50:26
want to pick Rubio. Rubio can be impressive as
1:50:28
a politician. I've seen him speak live before and
1:50:31
he, at times, I think is really, really good.
1:50:33
I think we were really pleasantly surprised in 2015
1:50:35
when he came to Dallas and you, me, and
1:50:38
Glenn went to the rally and were really
1:50:40
favorably impressed by what he had to say.
1:50:43
He was really good. He was good. And
1:50:45
I think he will not hurt Trump. None
1:50:48
of these guys, some make the argument
1:50:50
that Vance is a little risky on this front. I will
1:50:53
make the argument I think Bergam is actually risky on this
1:50:55
front. And everyone's saying he's the safe choice. He
1:50:57
is totally unproven, totally
1:51:01
unproven at this level. You
1:51:04
are taking a guy out of single A and pushing him
1:51:06
into the majors and saying, well, he hit 330 in the
1:51:08
minors. Okay.
1:51:12
But Vance has been on television constantly.
1:51:14
He's gone through a major campaign recently.
1:51:16
He's been on media tours forever. All
1:51:19
of his stuff is sort of out there. Rubio
1:51:22
is even more well vetted because
1:51:24
he was actually a presidential candidate already. He went
1:51:26
through this fire already and dealt with some of
1:51:29
the problems that are associated with it. I
1:51:31
mean, I think Vance is a
1:51:34
better communicator than
1:51:36
Bergam is. So I
1:51:38
would be less worried about him having
1:51:40
those, but like people
1:51:42
criticize the Sarah Palin choice because
1:51:45
she was an unknown
1:51:47
governor from a
1:51:49
rural state without
1:51:51
a large population that seemed to have a decent
1:51:53
record in that state. And then she was put
1:51:55
on that platform and there were issues. I
1:51:58
don't see why you wouldn't see that. as a
1:52:00
risk at least with Doug Burgum. They're acting like this
1:52:02
guy like is, you know, the most, he's
1:52:05
been in our lives for a hundred years. No
1:52:07
one knew who Doug Burgum was six months ago. Unless
1:52:10
you lived in North Dakota. When he announced
1:52:12
for president, no one knew who he
1:52:14
was. And now all of
1:52:16
a sudden he's the safe choice. Like
1:52:19
that is, it might be true, but
1:52:21
there is absolute risk there. We have no idea
1:52:23
how this guy performs on a stage like that.
1:52:26
The only thing we have is he was in a couple, it
1:52:28
was only one debate, wasn't he? Maybe he was in two primary
1:52:31
debates where Trump wasn't there and
1:52:34
he was very forgettable. So
1:52:37
maybe the idea is, well, he'll be very forgettable
1:52:39
in the campaign too. And that's fine for Donald
1:52:41
Trump. Probably true. But
1:52:43
man, I don't know. That one seems like a
1:52:45
risk. So should we go through some of these
1:52:47
other people that are possibilities? Tell me
1:52:50
if you think these are real possibilities. Tim Scott, you think he's in
1:52:52
it or out of it? No, I think he's out. I
1:52:54
have not heard a lot of Scott Buzz lately. No. So
1:52:57
I don't think he's going to be the choice, but
1:53:00
I wouldn't say he's completely, I wouldn't be stunned
1:53:02
if it was Scott. I just don't think it's
1:53:04
going to happen. Here's
1:53:07
one that has not been talked about,
1:53:09
but I could see Trump potentially doing,
1:53:12
which is Glenn Youngkin. You think there's any
1:53:14
possibility of that? I think there's a chance.
1:53:17
He did mention him last week or the
1:53:19
week before. He said, yeah, he's one of
1:53:21
the names I'm considering. Okay. And
1:53:24
what you like with Youngkin is
1:53:26
he did very well with the
1:53:28
suburban woman crowd that Trump struggled
1:53:30
with in 2020. Issues
1:53:32
like education and stuff, prominent issues, obviously, in
1:53:34
this election potentially. And Virginia is a state
1:53:37
where normally is not competitive, but right now
1:53:39
is. I think the polling from Virginia shows
1:53:41
a pretty close race there. Maybe he could
1:53:43
help you there. Obviously, if you win Virginia
1:53:46
and you're a Republican, it's probably over. You've
1:53:48
probably won the election already. Tulsi
1:53:51
Gabbard, I ain't real. I don't
1:53:53
think so. No, I don't
1:53:55
think there's a chance. I would be shocked, but there
1:53:57
is an argument for it. Right?
1:53:59
Like especially. the way he's handling abortion. We just
1:54:01
dealt with this last hour. If you want to
1:54:04
kind of softly, soft play the
1:54:06
abortion issue, you pick basically a
1:54:08
Democratic woman. Who's pro-choice. Who's pro-choice and you stick
1:54:10
around the ticket. I think it's a terrible idea.
1:54:13
I do not want a Bernie Sanders campaign volunteer
1:54:15
as the potential president of the United States, but
1:54:17
what I will say is I don't get to
1:54:19
make that decision and I do like Tulsi Gabbard.
1:54:21
Yeah, I do too. I like her. But we're
1:54:23
so easy on the right. Anybody
1:54:26
is who looks like an
1:54:28
oasis in the desert of liberalism,
1:54:30
we're like, yes, please give me
1:54:32
that. And I
1:54:34
think she benefits from that because she
1:54:37
comes from the left. She supported
1:54:39
Bernie Sanders at one point for
1:54:42
president. But
1:54:44
now, she seems much
1:54:46
more in line with a lot of
1:54:48
what we believe. But
1:54:50
there's too many differences for me. Too many
1:54:52
differences. And again, if she's... The
1:54:56
candidate's 78 years old. I know we keep talking
1:54:58
about the other guy who's really, really old and
1:55:00
looks like he's about to collapse at any moment.
1:55:03
But Donald Trump, a
1:55:05
lot of people are completely cogent when
1:55:07
they pass away. He's right around the
1:55:09
age... And she could become president is
1:55:12
kind of the point. God
1:55:14
forbid, I hope it doesn't happen obviously, but I'm
1:55:16
nervous about that. This is an important pick. Ben
1:55:19
Carson, any chance you think he picks him? I hope not. I
1:55:22
think no. And he's mentioned him a few times, but I don't
1:55:24
think so. I don't think that's real. I don't think he's really
1:55:26
picking him. The fake Ramaswami. I
1:55:28
don't think so. He wouldn't be bad at all. No. I
1:55:31
wouldn't mind that. And consistent with the sort of platform
1:55:34
that Trump has. There's a
1:55:36
similarity there. He has publicly
1:55:38
ruled him out, but then seemingly ruled him back
1:55:41
in later on. So I don't
1:55:43
know. Just keep a position in the White House spokesperson
1:55:46
arena. Keep that open for him. Because
1:55:48
he'd certainly be able to do that.
1:55:51
Imagine anybody better as good
1:55:53
as he is speaking
1:55:55
and ad-libbing... The press wouldn't
1:55:57
hate him. Oh, they'd hate him so much. Oh my gosh.
1:55:59
They'd hate him. he would run circles around him. Elise
1:56:02
Stefanik? I just don't think she's well enough. No.
1:56:04
Well known enough. She's also not super conservative. She
1:56:06
did do a great job on the Israel protests,
1:56:09
I will say. Yeah. Kristy Noem?
1:56:12
No. No chance. The dog thing, I
1:56:15
think, sunk that one, unfortunately, for Kristy. Nikki
1:56:17
Haley? No. No. No. Mike Pence?
1:56:20
Mike Pence is on this list. No. I'm pretty sure
1:56:23
he's not going to hate Mike Pence now. Would you
1:56:25
be hilarious if you're just like, yeah, we're running it
1:56:27
back. I got Mike Pence on
1:56:29
the ticket, Trump. We don't even have to print new
1:56:31
decals. It'd be fun for a few days talking about
1:56:33
it. It would be hilarious. That's, we should go through
1:56:35
what our most fun scenario is for how this plays
1:56:38
out. I have an idea for it. All right. Let
1:56:40
me give a couple more names before we do that.
1:56:42
Sarah Huckabee Sanders. I think that's an interest. That's a
1:56:44
possibility. I think it's a small
1:56:46
chance, but it's an interesting one. She's
1:56:49
been very loyal. You know how important
1:56:51
loyalty is to him. And I don't
1:56:53
know of anybody more loyal than she's
1:56:55
been. There was some conflict about her
1:56:57
not endorsing early. She didn't endorse Trump
1:57:00
in the primary very early. So there
1:57:03
was some ruffled feathers supposedly
1:57:05
about that. Byron Donalds, there's a chance of that. He's
1:57:07
been mentioned a lot. I just don't think so. He's
1:57:09
not well known enough. It's not a bad pick. No,
1:57:11
he's a good guy. I like him, but I don't
1:57:13
think that's going to happen. Tom Cotton. No.
1:57:15
No, I don't think so. Any other, no, I
1:57:17
don't think so. So here's my scenario for most
1:57:20
fun thing that happens in this election. All
1:57:23
right. Kamala
1:57:27
Harris organizes a Kamala
1:57:29
coup. She
1:57:32
gets the cabinet officials on board, and
1:57:34
they launch the 25th Amendment challenge
1:57:37
and get Joe Biden thrown out of
1:57:39
office. She just decides she's going to
1:57:42
take it. All right. Joe Biden
1:57:44
is so angry about this that
1:57:47
he decides, despite the fact he's been thrown
1:57:49
out of the presidency by
1:57:51
the 25th Amendment, he can
1:57:53
stay on the ticket and
1:57:56
decides to stay on the ticket, holds
1:57:58
on. names a
1:58:01
new vice presidential possibility, whoever
1:58:03
that is, and then loses terribly
1:58:05
in the election. So... That
1:58:09
would be fun. That would be fun. That
1:58:12
would be hilarious. I want that
1:58:14
to happen. It's a little like this
1:58:16
sports talk radio scenarios. There's no chance
1:58:18
of it happening, but that's what I
1:58:20
want. Bob from Birkeland calls in and
1:58:22
says, Hey, Mikey, what if Mickey
1:58:24
Mantle and Alex Rodriguez
1:58:26
have played at the same time
1:58:28
on the same team as Sandy
1:58:31
Colfax? You think they'd win? What
1:58:35
is your Bob from
1:58:37
Northport call? You're
1:58:39
suggesting the most fun that you could have in
1:58:42
this particular election. Do you have a crazy...
1:58:45
The most fun? The one
1:58:47
I'd like to see, obviously. For... Just
1:58:51
best for America. Yeah, that's not what I'm talking about.
1:58:53
Ron DeSantis. Wait. Ron
1:58:55
DeSantis. How does
1:58:57
Ron DeSantis get? Okay, here's the
1:58:59
scenario for that. They go through the
1:59:02
election. Trump and
1:59:04
Biden tie at 269. It
1:59:08
goes to the house and the house selects Ron
1:59:10
DeSantis. Yeah,
1:59:12
I can see that happening. There you go. Any day
1:59:14
now. Just look for it any day now. All
1:59:17

2:00:58
new show, launching tomorrow, Blaze News Tonight.
2:01:00
It's gonna be great, don't miss it.
2:01:03
Again, blazetv.com/Glenn, Glenn30trial is
2:01:05
the code. Let
2:01:07
me give you this from Charles C.W. Cook. He writes,
2:01:09
the press insists that they didn't know how bad it
2:01:11
was. They say they were as shocked
2:01:13
as anyone by what they saw. They
2:01:16
contend they are not the perpetrators, but the
2:01:18
victims. If that's true,
2:01:21
we ought to talk through its implications. If
2:01:23
it's true, then the press was duped and duped by
2:01:25
the federal government of the United States of America. If
2:01:28
it's true, then the executive branch has
2:01:30
been engaged in a massive and effective
2:01:32
conspiracy to keep Biden's infirmity from the
2:01:34
people who were supposed to report the
2:01:36
news. If it's true, then
2:01:39
the White House fooled the media, it
2:01:41
outwitted the media, it embarrassed the media.
2:01:44
If it's true, then the president and his
2:01:46
political party colluded to suppress the ability of
2:01:48
the sacred, fourth estate to relay matters of
2:01:50
public interest to the voters, and in the
2:01:53
process, it made a mockery of the First
2:01:55
Amendment. So, is the press
2:01:57
gonna investigate that? Certainly,
2:01:59
Sal. Sounds like a big story to me. And
2:02:02
by investigate, I don't mean lash out at the president
2:02:04
in the hopes that he'll be replaced by someone who
2:02:06
does better in the polls. I mean,
2:02:08
find out how this happened in the first place. Discover
2:02:11
who knew, when, where, name
2:02:13
names. If Biden goes, he'll
2:02:15
be replaced by someone, probably his own vice president.
2:02:17
How is the press going to make sure that
2:02:19
she and her team don't do exactly the same
2:02:21
thing on a different topic? It's a great way
2:02:23
to call him out on the carpet. Mm-hmm.
2:02:26
Because it's absolutely impossible that they were
2:02:28
duped. They weren't. Unless you don't,
2:02:31
you don't look at your own
2:02:33
coverage. I mean, jeez. They knew.
2:02:36
They knew. They knew what we
2:02:38
knew. They've always known. It's
2:02:40
amazing that they play this game. And
2:02:42
you know, with some people, it works. Oh,
2:02:45
they didn't know he was, he'd
2:02:48
suffered such decline. Just happened.
2:02:51
When did that happen? No one heard some minor
2:02:53
thing popped up. Wow. In
2:02:55
the last week, he's really gone downhill.
2:02:58
Well, now we know from George Clooney it was at least
2:03:00
a week before the debate. Oh, right. That's
2:03:02
when he started going downhill. How many times, this
2:03:05
deadline's going to be extended and extended and extended.
