Topics
左派媒体将特朗普在麦迪逊广场花园的集会与85年前纳粹的集会相提并论,以此来攻击特朗普,并试图将他与纳粹和希特勒联系起来。他们认为这是他们在选举前的最后手段,因为他们的竞选活动缺乏其他论据。这种做法被认为是危险的,因为它可能会激起暴力行为。 左派媒体的报道被批评为糟糕的新闻,他们试图通过一次历史事件来定义麦迪逊广场花园这个场地,忽略了该场地举办的其他众多活动。他们将特朗普描绘成纳粹,并暗示应该消灭他,这是一种危险的言论。 左派试图将特朗普称为纳粹的原因有三点:他们没有其他论据、他们想让他死、他们放弃了争取中间选民。他们想通过将特朗普描绘成纳粹来激发人们暗杀他,以阻止他当总统。他们坚持将特朗普称为纳粹,并拒绝考虑这种说法可能导致的危险后果。

Welcome to the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment. This is the Glenn Beck Program.

With Pat and Stu today for Glenn. A lot going on. Wow, there was the big Trump rally.

Madison Square Garden. You mean the Nazi rally? The Nazi rally, yeah. I saw that. Do you know there was a Nazi rally 85 years ago? And that defines the venue of Madison Square Garden. Yes, it does. How many Nazi rallies has Billy Joel held there? Thousands? Thousands? Millions? I think closer to a billion. Really? One billion rallies. Nazi rallies from Billy Joel. And now Trump's doing the same thing. What do you think Piano Man's about? It's about Hitler. Ha ha ha ha.

So ridiculous. So there's that. And there was a lot from Kamala over the weekend. She's terrific. Isn't that the word you'd use to describe her? No, it's definitely not. We'll find out in a minute what word you might use. More coming up in 60 seconds. Yeah, they might need to edit that one. Living with pain is like having someone walk around behind you all day, constantly crashing cymbals into your ears. Yeah.

It's just awful and you can't get away from it. If you're in the kind of pain Glenn used to be in or even worse, you'll try about anything to get out of it. And that's how he felt when he was talking to Tanya and Tanya was like, just try Relief Factor, you moron. What's wrong with you? Eventually, he actually listened to her, which is usually the end of that story in almost every circumstance. Eventually, he listens to her and things work out better. Relief Factor is a daily supplement that helps your body fight pain by fighting inflammation, which is the source of

of most of the pain in our bodies and a lot of disease as well. It's 100% drug-free. It was developed by doctors to help reduce or eliminate pain. Over a million people have tried Relief Factor's Quick Start Kit and 70% of them have gone on to order it again. Stop masking your pain and start fighting back naturally. Give Relief Factor a try right now

They found it out. Well, it's not unfortunate for the Nazis. They wanted it. Yeah, that's true. Pat, you know, they packed an entire arena filled with Nazis and many of them, the rarest of Nazis, Israel supporting Nazis. You almost never see them, but they were there in mass, oddly with Israeli flags. Yeah, yeah. That was a strange twist. Did you see the, I think it was the MSNBC banner. No.

The way they promoted and covered the rally was Trump and supporters, something like Trump and supporters hold rally where 85 years ago Nazis held a rally.

Wait, what does that have to do with anything? I mean, what does that have to do with this particular rally when it's so obvious that they're trying to tie him to Nazis, to Hitler, because that's their last little push here before the election. Which is a very strange push. But you're right. Like Madison Square Garden is like the arena in America. Mm-hmm.

You're defining it by one rally that they had in 1933 or whatever. What year was it? 39, I think. Yeah, that's right. It would be a little bit... That's just an interesting year. Look, 39, this is...

Everything's happened there, right? Like, I mean, Willis Reed walking out for freaking NBA championship. Like, this is a historic arena. Yeah. This is one of the most... Muhammad Ali has fought there. The world's most famous arena is their slogan. Right. Why are they being defiant? I actually feel worse for Madison Square Garden than I do Republicans and Trump. Yeah.

It is incredible. Yes, they held an event there. How many parks have had bad events in them? Do we define the parks by this event? It's so strange. Such bad journalism. And we know it's just... We know why it's happening, right? It's because, you're right, they're closing...

In all of their wisdom. Their closing argument. Their closing argument is. He's a Nazi. Is the guy who has almost been murdered in front of our eyes twice at least is a Nazi. Right. What do you do with Nazis? What have we done historically with Nazis, Pat? We try to eliminate them. We try to eliminate them.

By ending their lives. Yep. That's what we do. I keep thinking of this because it is one of my favorites of all time. But when you try to kill Adolf Hitler, Tom Cruise makes movies about your life. That's how the story ends. Tom Cruise makes Valkyrie. Yeah. And everyone says, wow, what a hero that guy was.

He tried to kill Hitler and almost did it. What a hero. We should remember him and memorialize his life and struggles in feature films featuring Tom Cruise. But like their closing argument is a guy who's almost been murdered in front of our eyes twice is a Nazi. And why is that? It's because...

They've got nothing else. Nothing. That shows you how weak this campaign is for Kamala Harris and Timmy Tampon Tim Walls. They're terrible. And they don't have a track record. And they know they can't talk about that. And they don't have a plan for the future. They know they can't talk about that. So all they've got is, well, he's a Nazi. Yeah. So let's look. Can we dive into that a little bit more and expand on that idea? Because I think you point out, why are they doing this?

Number one, I think, and probably true, is what you just said. They've got nothing. Right? Like, they've got nothing. They're realizing joy didn't work. Oh, man. They don't even talk about joy anymore. No, that's dead. Joy is dead. Yeah. So they...

They are realizing joy didn't work. That approach was a failure. J.D. Vance's weird was a failure. And they're like, well, let's go back to what Biden was doing, which again is a strange turn of events considering they threw the guy out of the party. But they're going back to that approach that they've been doing for years and just calling him Hitler. Okay, that's number one. Number two is, I mean, I hate to say it this way, but they just want the guy dead.

Yeah. They actually want him. They want to inspire someone to shoot him. Yeah. That's what they want. Their actual goal of this approach is to get Donald Trump killed so he does not become president. I don't know. I think you've got to throw that into the equation here as a possibility. Yeah, I think you do. It's about as dark as I can ever imagine thinking politics gets. But you have to consider it after what...

Because the normal human approach after watching your opponent take a bullet to the head is to say, holy crap, let's not at least be responsible for the next one. Now look, I don't care about that at all. They don't seem to care about it at all. And it makes you think maybe they care about it in the opposite direction. Maybe they just want this to happen. I think they do. Maybe a good part of their idea here is like if he dies, he won't win.

If he dies, he can't be in office. Yep. Maybe we should do what we can to inspire the worst elements of our society to just try this. That is as dark a thought as I've had, but I did have that honestly the other day. Because I am not a person who would blame a political party and their messaging for...

for something like this. I mean, people have tried to do that to us forever. Every time someone does something bad on the right, they say, well, he once had Glenn Beck on his radio and they try to blame Glenn for it. I don't think that's an appropriate approach. You should be able to say things that are even pretty far. I think when it comes to rhetorical statements without taking responsibility for every nut job who's following you. And I think that applies. I said that about Bernie freaking Sanders last

when his own campaign volunteer tried to murder 10% of elected Republicans in Washington, D.C. But like Bernie Sanders, you know, didn't come out the next day and say, you know what? That guy was kind of right with his reasoning on the murders. That's what they're doing here. Especially that second guy at the golf course, right?

was echoing this exact language. Yeah. And now they're using it as their closing argument. I don't know where to go. It's incredible. Other than to think that maybe they just think this is a good thing. Well, and when Peter Doocy has asked KJP about it, she's essentially said, no, we have to say this. That was basically her answer. Don't you worry that this rhetoric is going to inspire another threat against Trump's life? Well, no, no, because this has to be said.

I mean, they're sticking to it. They're defending it. I know. It's amazing. It really is. I've never seen anything like it. To give you a third, I got a third possibility, too, to throw out there for this, which is they have come to the conclusion there are no more gettable, persuadable people.

middle of the road voters. There's no more Republicans that are going to come on board. There's no more moderates they can get. So their conclusion electorally is to say, let's switch gears to turnout operation. Let's get every MSNBC voter we can get, go with the harshest rhetoric we can, try to get all those far left people out. And we're going to give up on the middle. Whatever we can get out of those people, we've gotten already.

I think that's plausible. I think yours is the most likely. I think it's plausible on the election. But the third one is, I don't know, 10%. I don't know what it is, but I'm starting to think, hey, this idea that they just kind of want the guy to get shot. It has to be something you're considering. I don't think they'd be too upset if it happened. That's unbelievable. It can't be. It is. But that's how much I hate him.

They do despise him. But at Madison Square Garden, here's what Donald Trump had to say. Cut 41. Or maybe this is a different numbering system? No, this is... Pat, I would say... Too quiet. You know, if this was his big speech for a Nazi rally, you should at least say words. Really? And apparently this audio does not have them. So, you know, I have no idea, honestly, you know, why they're doing this. But I will say...

This is their approach. And, you know, you listen to it. And like the other one that they had was this big, this gotcha moment where this comedian comes out and insults Puerto Rico. Oh, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Now, do you know this guy at all? I've never heard of him, but I understand he's a big roast. Yes. I had never. I will say I'm not super big in watching roasts, but I had not heard of him until I watched the Tom Brady roast.

Oh, right. That's where I saw him before. I thought he looked familiar. And this guy was probably the heart. I mean, really funny, but the harshest. Oh, yeah. Of of that entire roast, which was for sure among the most uncomfortable things I've ever watched in my entire life. And I don't even like Tom Brady.

I mean, as a person who was victimized by him in a Super Bowl, my Philadelphia Eagles, they got revenge. But the point is, I'm not a Brady guy. It wasn't because I'm like, oh, gosh, poor Tom Brady. It was just uncomfortable to watch. Really, really funny, though. He was probably the most brutal and one of the funniest guys.

of the entire thing. This is his entire shtick. His entire shtick is to say really uncomfortable things. Now, you can say, hey, don't invite him. Yes, that's what I would say. Don't invite him. Because it's just not a good thing for this moment. Right. It's not a good look. It's not a good sound. And this is what they're going to use to prove the fact

that, yeah, see, we told you it was a Nazi rally and then you had him saying this. But are we not freaking adults here? Well, we're not. The Democrats are not. This is his entire business. I know. It's his entire career is doing this and saying things that are intentionally offensive. You know, you...

If you look at the Tom Brady roast, they all said really offensive things. Yes. Most of them would be on stage with Kamala Harris. Yeah. Most of them are supporting. They will have no problem whatsoever. They had no problem bringing out Eminem, who was talking about abusing women and gays throughout basically the entire rise of his career.

Yep. And he's totally fine to come out and support Kamala Harris. No one brings up his old comments. No one says, hey, hey, he's anti-woman. No, no one says he's anti-gay. How many times and like we don't say multiple F words on the show because of FCC regulations and also just they're not very nice.

But, you know, the F word has been frequently used by Eminem. Not the normal one you're thinking of, but the one to describe gay people. The guy constantly, that was his entire shtick for years. And he's totally fine to be on stage with Kamala Harris. No one cares at all. Now, look, I tend to favor that viewpoint, that view.

Putting an entertainer who said crazy crap on stage in this environment is probably not a good idea. Probably not a good idea. But also, we should probably just all be adults about it and realize that's kind of like, you know, actors that play Hitler should that they are doing things that, you know, they're saying things, horrible things. You know, Leonardo DiCaprio said the N word about nine trillion times in one of those Quentin Tarantino movies.

Do we hold him responsible for that? I mean, I don't know. It kind of seems like a childish way to look at it, frankly. It is. He's reading a script. It is. Right? This guy is a roast master. He's writing jokes that are supposed to be offensive. It's his entire business model. It's like, I can't believe McDonald's made a hamburger. Why didn't they bring salads? Because they make freaking hamburgers. That's why. Yeah.

So one of the things the comedian said, and I don't even know his name. Do you know his name? I think it was by Kill Tony.

Kill Tony. But I honestly had no awareness of him whatsoever. You know, I watch a decent amount of stand-up. But he has a huge following. It was more my ignorance than his lack of success. Apparently people know him. I mean, that's why he was invited to the rally, right? Yeah. I mean, he's a big... And this is also directly in the core of the types of audiences Donald Trump's going after. Obviously with the Rogan. He's in that sort of circle. Yeah.

And, uh, I can see why you'd want him on stage, uh, for a rally like that. You just have to, either you have to get an agreement from him to not go down some crazy road or you need to maybe not invite him, put his name on, on your website and not necessarily invite him to speak. Right. But here's one of the things that he had to say that they've taken issue with. It is absolutely wild times. It really, really is. And, uh,

You know, there's a lot going on. Like, I don't know if you guys know this, but there's literally a floating island of garbage in the middle of the ocean right now. Yeah. I think it's called Puerto Rico. No. Okay. All right. Okay. We're getting there. The audience is really uncomfortable with it. You can tell. It's how they respond at roasts, too. They go, aww. I mean, everyone...

Come on. And then like everyone on the left is like, we've never heard of a roast. What's a roast? We deny their existence. We don't know that this person is famous for this exact activity. It's so fake. But they know. And to be fair, from a political standpoint, obviously they're going to try to take advantage of whatever they can. Yeah. And secondarily, we mentioned it like we weren't personally aware of this guy, you know, a year ago.

So like a lot of people, probably 90% of people don't even know who he is. They just think he's a guy who's offensive and doesn't like Puerto Rico. But a lot of people saw the Brady roast. Yes, that's true. The Tom Brady roast was viewed, like the most viewed thing on Netflix in the last year. But deny that, Pat. Deny everything you've seen on Netflix to get political points. Tiger King didn't exist. Wait, the Menendez brothers? What? Who? Who?

Exactly. They all saw because they all want the Menendez brothers to go free. They all saw that. Yeah, okay. But we're going to deny that everyone saw the Tom Brady roast. It's just pathetic. And I mean, they just killed their parents. It's time, right? I mean, how long do you have to stay in jail for that? How hard must you slap a wrist in a situation like this?

It's too much. It's too much. I don't remember that whole story that much. And I didn't watch the special, actually. But I guess there's some reason for them. Yeah. They were abused. And apparently, as there's some evidence, it was true. That was, I think, their initial defense. But I think it was really by it. And they wound up life in prison anyway. But we only have about 20 seconds here. We don't have time to open up a new topic. But my favorite. Just let me give you one more point on the Menendez thing. Yes.

Have you ever seen this Mark Jackson basketball card?

I don't think so. This is incredible. This is a real thing. So Mark Jackson, he played at a place they held a Nazi rally, Madison Square Garden, by the way. Wow. Just 85 years ago? Yeah. Oh, man. I mean, I tie that directly to Mark Jackson, the point guard for the Knicks. Yes. And he has a basketball card. And he's just dribbling, as one would do playing basketball. And in the background, center court, front row,

Are the Menendez brothers. Oh, wow. They're sitting in the background of this basketball card. So he's endorsing the Menendez brothers and Nazis. At home.

A Madison Square Garden Nazi rally? But after the Menendez brothers killed their parents, they took the money and did all sorts of fun things. Right. One of them was sitting center court. Oh, my gosh. At Madison Square Garden, a place where a Nazi rally occurred in 1939. And they're on his basketball card. Isn't that crazy? What are the odds of that? That's crazy. All right. There you go. Mr. Menendez fact of the day. Right there. Back. All right.

I want to tell you about Police Sergeant Christopher David Fitzgerald of the Temple University Police Department in Philadelphia. Tragically, Christopher was fatally shot while attempting to arrest a robbery suspect, and he left behind a wife and five children. The Talented Towers Foundation stepped in, and thanks to the generosity of donors, just like you, they were able to provide Christopher's surviving family members a mortgage-free home.

Nothing can bring him back to life, unfortunately, but removing some of the financial stress from their lives is helping in a huge way. Christopher will be remembered by many for his passion and the determination with which he made his own name in life while improving conditions for people living in his community and Temple University stakeholders. The foundation is doing so much good, but it does need help. More than 95 cents of every dollar you donate to Tunnel to Towers goes to its programs,

It's heroes like Christopher who protect and serve our communities and our nation. Help heroes like Christopher and their families. Donate $11 a month to Tenalto Towers at T2T.org.

He'll be back tomorrow, I believe.

Not the plan? He had a funeral today to attend to. A close relative. So he... I mean, he was...

You know, very troubled by missing a show this close to the election. So he asks for your grace on that. You know, normally, I mean, this is... Because we're eight days away. Eight days away. But, you know, look, family, you know. Yeah. Oh, my gosh. Yes. You've got to be family first. Our listeners understand that. Definitely. 888-727-BECK is the phone number. We have a bunch of new polls out today. Some really...

Really good. Some not so good. The ABC poll has Harris up by four points. Yeah. But it's worth noting that the ABC poll in 2016, two weeks before the election, had Hillary up by 12. So...

Maybe you take that with a grain of salt. Right. And the comparisons you should make when you compare poles, it's best to not compare different pollsters to each other because they all have different methodologies, you know, just like anything else. This is a quote unquote, you know, it's a science at some level, but it's also there's art to it.

Every one of these pollsters makes decisions about who they include, how they weight people, you know, how they weight different demographic groups and education groups and genders and all these things. They're all making decisions, individuals making decisions that go into this. So if you're going to compare polls, you know, eight years away from each other, it's a bit of a stretch, but you want to compare polls.

An ABC poll to an ABC poll. Yeah. Because they're at least theoretically going through the same methodology. And when you do that and you see movement like this, that's what we saw with the, I think it was the, was it the New York Times Sienna poll the other day that came out and had them tied. And it was 48, 48. And if you include third parties had Trump up 47 to 46. Yeah.

Their previous poll from like a month earlier had Kamala Harris up by three. So you see a movement toward Trump between two polls closely next together, highly rated pollster, and the same methodology. That's the best way to... Makes sense. Now, again, I...

Polls don't do this stuff well. They are not designed to give you specific information about a 12-vote victory by one candidate or the other. That's not what they do. The margin of error is a real thing. It's a trend. You can get generalities. And what you can tell by a lot of these national polls is the popular vote should be pretty close. Should be closer than what we've seen in previous elections. And I don't know what's going to happen with it. Like right now, Pat...

This is, let me give you this. This is from Real Clear Politics, the most recent polls. Harris plus one, tie. Harris plus one, tie, tie. Trump plus three, tie. That's their most recent poll. Wow. And that's the average again, right? Yeah. And they do an average, by the way, which is for the first time that I will say I can remember. Let me look at the chart here.

First time since basically Harris had her rise as a candidate, Donald Trump leads the RealClearPolitics average 48.5% to 48.4%. Oh my gosh. That's within 0.1? 0.1. Now that's the national popular vote. As we all know, that does not mean anything. That is not our system of government. We do not, our election system. It doesn't indicate. It would be great if he wins the popular vote. Yeah, and he was. It would be important. The overwhelming underdog.

in polling leading up to his last two runs. And the best piece of evidence to feel confident about a Donald Trump win right now is not looking at this data and saying, oh, wow, it looks like he's clearly winning because that is not what the data shows us at this point.

I've talked to I spent the whole weekend talking to friends and, you know, everyone talks about politics. Everyone brings it up. I'm sure the same thing with you, Pat, because it's your business. And they ask questions about who's going to win. And I think like my general perception of people on the right right now is they are more confident than I would be looking at this data. I think Donald Trump is the favorite right now.

But it is a slight favorite. And I am not overly confident that Donald Trump is going to win. I would not be surprised if we wake up, you know, some terrible morning. Four weeks after the election. Right. Probably that long. Once they finally counted the digital votes. Once that happens and a Kamala Harris wins this thing. It's not out of the question. It is not something you should not mentally prepare yourself for. Maybe physically prepare yourself with plane tickets. I don't know. But...

But it is one of those things that is definitely still on the table. It seems impossible. She's so terrible. Yes. But it is on the table. I'm not going to...

sit here and be overly optimistic about something but i would rather be donald trump right now yeah and i would say that i in previous elections with trump it would be the opposite i would rather have been hillary clinton going into that election night even though she lost i would rather if i you walked in and you got into my head who would you rather be i would have rather been hillary clinton um if you go into 2020 i would have rather been joe biden uh you go into 2024 right now we're a week out for the election i'd rather be donald trump

And really, when you think about it, like you mentioned, the national poll doesn't mean all that much. What means a lot more, I think, are the seven battleground states. Absolutely. And he's leading in all of them, right? According to the RCP average? Yes.

At least it was late last week. Yeah. If you want to go through them real quick, we can. Let me pull it up here. Pennsylvania is, of course, the one that most people have talked about. Trump is up by 0.5 points in the RealClearPolitics average. Half a percentage point. Wow. North Carolina, Trump is up by 0.8 points. Okay. Georgia, Trump is up by 2.3. That's, you know, it feels like a blowout. Now, normally, what I would tell you about a two-point polling average lead is, I don't know. Tied.

Yeah, they're basically tied. You could say that Trump has a slight advantage there, but not by much. Wisconsin, you have Trump plus 0.3 points. Wow. Michigan, you have Trump plus 0.1 points.

And Arizona, you've got Trump plus one and a half. If you want to go to Nevada as well, Trump plus 0.7. So he's up in all of them. He's up in all of them, but very close. None of them I would have actual confidence that he was going to win. Now, you could say Arizona and Georgia you feel the most confident about, but none of them. Let me give you another example of this, Pat, that you will relate to. Trump right now is a favorite to the betting odds.

is a minus 185. What does that mean exactly? Well, the Green Bay Packers yesterday going into their game against the Jacksonville Jaguars were minus 185 favorites. Okay. And they won. That is a game they won with a field goal at the buzzer. That is how, that's how the game ended, right? Wasn't it a field goal right at the end? Yeah. 30 to 27 was the final score in a very close game.

If you are a person who has ever bet on football, the way the markets are telling you this looks is an NFL team favored by about four points.

a favorite but like you're not betting your house on it it's not a 30 point favorite a four point favorite yeah you know teams win and lose all the time when they're four point favorites so if you're thinking yourself ah we got this in the bag i'm not gonna bother with x y and z activities that might help the campaign yeah you might want to eliminate that thought from your thought process at this point

Would you agree with that, Pat? I would agree with that. Yes. It's interesting to note in this ABC poll, which, by the way, again, has Harris up by four on certain issues like Trump is up by 12 points on immigration.

How is it only 12 points? 12 points. It should be 50 or 100. Trump is up by eight points on the economy overall. How is he only up eight points on the economy? This should remind you that very few people in this country are making the decision based on what actually is going on. That's right. They're making the decision based largely on just general partisanship. That's 90% of people. And then a lot of people who are making their decision based on they saw a Hitler meme on

on you know on tiktok yeah right like you can't look at this economy and the border especially the border

And say, oh, well, there's a good argument that they did a good job there. Specifically only seven points on inflation. Come on. I mean, come on. How? Inflation of all things. His own... The economic advisors in the Obama administration blame Biden for the inflation. Yes. It's not a close call on that one. Seven points on the war in the Middle East. And Harris is up on these issues. 15 points on abortion.

Is that the one issue that is swinging all others? I don't know. It almost feels that way sometimes. It's so strange, too, because the economy hits everybody. Yeah. Every single person is met with some sort of economic challenge because of what Biden has done. The border hits everybody, largely because beyond crime also hits the economy in ways that are problematic for a lot of people. Mm-hmm.

Abortion, like, how many people have abortions? There are ridiculous estimates by women, of women that, you know, is in the, like, you know, 10, 20% range. I don't buy that at all. But even if it were true...

You're talking about, first of all, half of the people don't have them at all. This is going to be shocking to the left, but men can't have them. There's a bunch of people that are not in childbearing age, right? Children, younger people, I guess for voters, I guess that wouldn't apply, but certainly older people get to a point where that's not really a concern.

And, you know, of the people who are women of childbearing age, a very small percentage of them are going to have an abortion. If they want to, sadly, they can get in a car and get one. Yeah, but they have to get in a car. Or it can get it mailed to their home.

Those two things are right there. So it's not even an actual thing. Like this is not something, a situation that I, as a person who would be out of the mainstream on my abortion opinion, I want, I want them to end and I don't feel bad about saying it. But,

political polls will tell you that I'm not in the mainstream on that position. I'm fine with that. I don't mind being in the mainstream about certain things. Like, you know, probably there's a time when slavery was popular. I wouldn't mind being against the mainstream saying, no, I don't think it's a good thing. So I'm going to stick with that opinion. But regardless of all that, it's a very, it hits a very small percentage of the population. It is created by just people

odd fear-mongering by the left. The left is trying to scare women to think that they can't get healthcare, that they can't get IVF treatments, that they can't get birth control. These are all, it's all nonsense. It's that message that they've hammered so hard that

that I think it's generally worked. It's worked. It's one of their lies. They're up by 10 on health care. Like, biodynamics is working. That lie did not work. Right. We're joyful. J.D. Vance is weird. Didn't work. That didn't work. This one's worked. Yeah, it has. I mean, it's fooled a lot of people. The other thing that's worked to a certain extent is the protecting American democracy nonsense. Yep. She's up by eight points on that. Not a huge lead. But still, eight what? How is she going to protect...

Something that doesn't exist. We're not a democracy. And why would you ever think that if we were and if you want to call it a specialized American democracy, whatever, we're a republic. But let's call it an American democracy. How is it that Kamala Harris is going to protect it?

What has she ever done to make you think she's capable? It's all January 6th stuff, right? I mean, that's all it is, right? It is. And sadly, they have that to fall back on. And, you know, it's part of why it was a problem approach to constantly talk about the 2020 election for not, you know, not just after the election, but also for years after. It was not something that necessarily worked. That being said, I don't know that it's that big of a factor, right? An eight-point lead...

shouldn't be that big of a factor on something like that especially when again it's something that's not hitting people yeah right like yeah yeah you everyone looked at January 6th and thought oh that was bad but it didn't do anything we can we all acknowledge that it didn't lead to anything it didn't leave like they're like oh he's Hitler let me give you a little history lesson here like oh well Mike Pence and you're luckily he stood up and he didn't certify the election you know what Hitler does to Mike Pence he kills Mike Pence that's what Hitler does to Mike Pence

Hitler kills Mike Pence and orders the army to just take over the building and he's still in power today. That's what Hitler does.

He's not Hitler. Look, I don't love every decision he made around the election, and I didn't like some of the points that were brought up. I get that. But he did leave the White House. It was a three-hour delay in the normal process. And yes, it was more significant than that. I didn't like what happened. But can we put it in some level of perspective? Dictators don't do that. They don't just leave. Yeah.

It's just nonsense. And, you know, they're trying it anyway, Pat. Sure. 888-727-BECK. More coming up. It's not fun to have to admit, but almost nobody just is a good shot right out of the gate. You know, first time without any effort whatsoever. It's not like the movies where, like, you just pick up the gun and just start nailing every single horrible terrorist that's walking in. That's not the way this works. The truth is you have to practice kind of a lot.

to be any good at all. But that can cost a lot of money because ammunition is not cheap. But what if there was a way to practice in a useful way even when you're dry firing? This is a really great idea. What if you didn't have to go to the shooting range every time you wanted to get in some shooting? Well, there is a way now. It's called Mantis X. It's a high-tech, easy-to-use system used widely by the military. It helps you improve your shooting quickly. You attach it to your firearm and connect it with an app on your smartphone or your tablets.

via Bluetooth. And then when, whether you're firing actual rounds or you're just dry firing and practicing, it'll give you instant feedback on what you're doing right, what you're doing wrong, and how to correct your technique. I might recommend this to Tim Walls.

You know, just watching him try to load a weapon. You may want to just get a little more practice in before you're actually shooting a real gun. 94% of shooters improve within 20 minutes using Mantis X.

Pat and Stu for Glenn today, 888-727-BECK. Did you see that Kamala was booed at her own rally the other day? Because I guess it was because Beyonce didn't actually perform when everybody was told she was going to perform at the rally. Instead, she spoke for like three minutes and left. She never sang. She didn't perform. Well, she spoke eloquently, Pat.

Yeah, yes, she did. She spoke eloquently about how she really wants you to know the reason she's for abortion is because she's a mother. Wait.

What? That is legitimately what she said her argument is. What? It seems to me to be a poor one. Yeah. Yeah. Because, you know. That should be the opposite. Right. I'm not for abortion because I'm a mother. Yeah. I don't know. Like, there's some part of me. And I don't know.

very very pro-life as i've mentioned but like there's some part of me that understands some 23 year old female being like oh crap what if something happens and i you know i my life changes in a way i didn't want it to happen right but like how does anyone who has a kid for abortion i don't know just really even if you are wouldn't you hide it from your kid

I really wish I had the right to kill you. I wish you weren't born, honey. Like, I don't understand. Have you seen the rumor that she was paid $10 million for that appearance at a rally? Oh, I hope that's true. Oh, me too. I hope every Democratic donor realizes it. Lizzo was paid $2.3 million last week. Really? Oh, Beyonce $10 million this week. That's what they're saying. I hope it's true. I don't know if it's true. Too good to check. Too good to check that.

The Glenn Beck Program. You know what the saddest words in the English language are? I didn't think it would happen to me. That's probably what they are, you know? And it's true when you have a situation like home title fraud. I think that's what I would say. If that happened to me, I'd be like, oh no, I'm the idiot that didn't protect myself with home title lock. Is that me?

Luckily, I'm not that idiot. I'm an idiot for a bunch of different reasons, but I do have home title lock because I care about protecting my home's title. You know, if you are someone who's worried about this because you've heard about it in the news, maybe you've taken action yet, but a lot of people haven't. Millions of people haven't, and yet people keep getting hit by this all the time. It's one of those situations I just don't

I don't even understand it at this point. Just go to Home Title Log, protect yourself. You're going to be locked down for all this stuff. If no one's watching out for your title, then it's really just a matter of time until you're next. And this is basically working by cyber criminals, getting access to your documents, signing the ownership of your home over to them.

No money needs to take place for this. And then they can go and borrow money against your equity and you got to unwind the legal process. It is not fun. So just protect yourself. HomeTitleLock.com.

Welcome to the fusion of entertainment and enlightenment.

This is the Glenn Beck Program. Pat Gray, Stu Bergeer for Glenn today. 888-727-BECK. Donald Trump made a huge appearance.

Joe Rogan's show on Friday. But he was just there for three hours. It was just a three-hour tour. That's all. A three-hour tour. There was a show about that. Yeah, is there? Yeah. I don't remember the name of it, but it was about an island. Like a three-hour tour? Yeah. It was about like one kind of hot girl next door woman. Yeah. And then there was also the hot movie star in it. Was there a millionaire, though? And there was a really hot skipper. Oh, cool. Mm-hmm.

A hot skipper. The hottest one of all was the skipper. Oh, God. Yeah. Not familiar with that. Okay. That's weird. It was a good show. It was a good show. We'll get into some of what Trump had to say on Joe Rogan's show coming up in one minute.

Do you ever find yourself taking a good look around your house and saying, gosh, we just really got to sell this place and move. I don't know, Pat. You ever have that thought? I have had that thought. Yeah. And you're just like, you know, it's time. We need to get out of this place. It was time and we took action. And you did it. Yeah. You actually did it. We did it. How is that working out for you? Worked out really well. You liking it? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That's it works. Look.

it's a big change and no matter when you go through this, it's tough enough to figure out whether it's the right time or not and whether the market is right or not. I remember having conversations with you, Pat, about this and you went back and forth on it for years. Yes. Whether you're going to do this. You don't want to complicate this with a bad real estate agent. That's for sure. That can make your situation much, much, much worse. That's why realestateagentsitrust.com exists. It exists.

It exists to get you the best agent in your area. Realestateagentsitrust.com. It's realestateagentsitrust.com. The name says it all. This is, by the way, a free service to you. So check it out now. Realestateagentsitrust.com. Okay, so Donald Trump, three hours of an interview with Joe Rogan. That's how much he's hiding.

Remember the whole Donald Trump is hiding thing from Thomas Camp? So you went on the number one podcast for three hours? That's hiding. He's a terrible hider. He's not good at it at all. I would love to play Donald Trump in Hide and Seek. Right? He would be so easy to find. Yeah.

He's the most famous person in the world. Right. And he's doing three hour podcast interviews with Joe Rogan. On the number one podcast in the world. So, yeah, it's not that hard to find him. And so Rogan found him and they talked about his support among young people.

TikTok now. Congratulations. And I've done really well. No, but you know the crazy. Have you seen the numbers? Billions, like billions of hits. It's crazy. I'm sure. TikTok's a wild application. And I've gone up 30 points. A Republican is always down 30 with young people. I'm plus 30.

And I'm on TikTok. It's had a huge impact. I think young people are rejecting a lot of this woke bulls**t. Young people are tired of being yelled at and scolded. They're tired of these people that they think are mentally ill telling them what the moral standards of society should be today. People are upset. There's a big difference now, but even in just a couple of years...

I was shaking hands with people. They're young people. The rebels are Republicans now. They're like, you want to be a rebel? You want to be punk rock? You want to, like, buck the system? You're a conservative now. That's how crazy. And then the liberals are now pro-

pro-silencing criticism. They're pro-censorship online. They're talking about regulating free speech and now regulating the First Amendment. It's bananas to watch. Joe, they come after their political opponent. I got more guys. I always say, you know, I kid, but I'm not kidding. I've been investigated more than Alphonse Capone. He was the meanest of them all. He'd kill you in two seconds if he didn't like you, right?

I've been under investigation more than Alphonse Capone, only because it's political opponent stuff. And I've won. I won the big case in Florida. I'm winning the other stuff.

You win. But you know what they did? They did something that's only done in third world countries. They came after their political opponent. I could have put Crooked Hillary in jail. Well, not only that, but they're weaponizing it by saying that that's what you're going to do once you get in office. Isn't it quite so weird? Ignoring what they're doing right now. It's crazy. I heard it. Somebody was defending me today. They said, no, that's what you're doing to him. They're going, he's going to put us in jail. He's going to invest...

That's what you're doing. That's what you're doing to him. Yeah. Is he actually up by 30 points among the young people? Donald Trump does a lot of things very well. Yes. Quoting polling statistics is not necessarily a strength. He has improved his lot among that group. Yeah. Many groups, black voters, Hispanic voters. Yes.

younger voters he is improving i would i would not i would not summarize the view of the polls as him up 30 points among younger voters no i would not you wouldn't summarize it that way no but you know he did and he did it but i don't think people it's like saying well is trump tower really the greatest hotel of all time it's a nice hotel it's a really nice hotel it is i you know i say i stayed at his vegas property last time i was out there

It was great. It's a great hotel. I mean, it was a really great hotel. Like, is it the number one hotel in the universe? I don't, probably not. I mean, there's probably, there's probably something even nicer. I don't know, but it was a nice hotel. And that's what, you know, what was the, what was the saying? Don't take him, literally take him seriously. Yeah. Take him seriously that he's improved his lot among younger voters. I do take that seriously. I would not take plus 30 literally though. Okay. I will say. All right. Is it plus 30 on any demographic? Like young men? Yeah.

I have to look it up. I don't think it's that positive on men, although I think he is leading with younger men now, which is pretty impressive. Not normal. Yeah. Like you said, it's not normal. It is. He is...

Trump, Trump's equation in this election is interesting. He is he's trading at some level traditional Republican strongholds for groups that Republicans have tried to break into forever. Yeah. Black voters, younger voters, Hispanic voters. The other category. This is in the New York Times Siena poll.

The other, and I went through that entire poll, by the way, on an episode of state of the race on Friday, which is the podcast. If you go to the studios America stream, if you want to hear that broken down into nerdy detail that you'll never ever need, uh, you can do, you can listen to that podcast and we're going to have episodes of that all week. So if you want all your election nerd content, go to students, America, follow that podcast. And we'll have episodes of state of the race along with the students America.

But we went through this the other day. Among other, now other is Asian Americans, Native Americans. You know, I don't know what other groups they're going to throw into that. But racial groups that are other. That means other than black, Hispanic, and white voters. Trump is leading in that poll. Nationally. Wow. Wow.

Wow. Nationally, among other voters. That's amazing. That's not normal for a Republican. I saw in some poll that he's actually down with white, non-college attending people. Is that like down eight points or something with...

with white people who didn't go to college I don't and usually that's a that's a category he dominates yeah no he actually you know I'll go back and check my my homework here as we do this but he's still he's still leading that he was he's trailing among white college educated voters he is leading among white non-college educated voters he is uh trailing among uh black college educated voters

And I don't think he's leading among black non-educated voters, non-college educated voters, but he is much more competitive than previous Republicans have been. For a long time. You know, it's interesting. I mean, like even the age breakdowns are interesting. He is still trailing among younger voters, which you'd think is typical.

And he is trailing among 25 to 34 as well, which you throw. Okay. 1825. He's trailing 25, 34 or 25 to 44. He's trailing as well, which is not a shock. You'd think though he does better with older voters. He is leading among, uh,

That we maybe call him Generation X, right? That voter, you know, I'm in I'm 48, I think now, which is weird to say. But like in that group, he's leading. Trump is leading. It's the only age demographic he's leading. He's actually in this poll trailing Kamala Harris by I think it's two points among senior voters. Sixty five plus. What? Which is shocking. Yeah. How can you be this competitive with that sort of breakdown? Yeah.

But it's how the at least what the poll says now, we don't know that that's going to be accurate. But that poll had Donald Trump ahead by one point overall. So it's interesting. He's got these slices of audience that he does really, really well with.

And you just the big concern with this is voters, for example, younger voters, minority voters, Hispanic voters, traditionally less reliable to show up at the polls. And so if you're depending on them, it may be, you know, while it's a strength to break into those categories for the first time for Republicans, it may also be a weakness if you're trading them for suburban moms who always show up. Right. Like so that is the risk here. But it is it is a real real I think it's a real realignment.

I don't know if the question really is only whether it lasts past Donald Trump. I think with Donald Trump on the ticket, it is a real realignment. Traditional Democratic voters are coming to Republican side. Some traditional Republican voters are going to the opposite side. It is a real change in our politics. And the first one I think really we've witnessed, Pat, in all our time doing the show.

Kind of strange. It is. You kind of knew the basic outline of every single election until Donald Trump, and he is changing the math quite a bit. Here he was speaking about energy with Joe Rogan. But here's the other thing. We don't have...

Well, we do, actually. It's being held. You know, we have certain areas where we have great raw earth material, and we're not allowed to use it because of the environment. And we have areas in California that have incredible raw earth, and they're not allowing, and I'm going to open it up. I'm going to let them use it. But how do you do that? How do you do that and protect the environment? Because the environment is going to be protected. You can do it. You can make a lake out of it. Okay, we'll put back a lake. I mean, something nice about lakes. You can do things magnificently.

You just have to do it carefully and responsibly. Absolutely, you have to do it carefully. But the problem, you know, China has all of those areas, most of those areas. And yet, when they say go electric with the cars, China is going to be the one that gives us the cars. All of those guys in Detroit are going to be out of business. You're going to make your electric cars over there. We have a thing called gasoline. And we have more oil and gas under our feet than any other nation. You know, I had...

In Alaska, there's a find. It's called Anwar. I got it approved. Reagan couldn't get it. Nobody could get it. I got it all done. It was amazing. They were getting ready to start drilling. The equivalent, they think, of Saudi Arabia, one of the biggest finds in the world. It was all set to go. And Biden comes in. One of his first orders were,

We're not going to use it. It would have been so good for the, we could have supplied all of Asia with oil and gas. What was the, was the negative? And you talk about money. Right. The negative was politically. They didn't think it was good for them. That's all. That's all it was. So you don't think that it's environmentally dangerous? Taking it from way down deep in the earth. So he's of course completely right about that. Yeah. It's not environmentally dangerous. No.

And it is a resource. We know these are the things that we could exploit. We could make people's lives much, much better. And it's interesting to hear, you know, Rogan, it's interesting. He's seen as this like right wing figure. He's not. No. Oh, he never has been. To remind you, he endorsed Bernie Sanders for president. And not that long ago. I think it was 2020, wasn't it? During the primaries in 2020. Seems like it was. Yeah. Am I getting the years right? I don't think it was 2016. Yeah.

Maybe it was, but it was recent. And yes, he's maybe moved to the right at some level because of the craziness of the left. The left has found a way to embrace such radical policy that a lot of people who are kind of in the middle or maybe even on the left are like, yeah, I got to go with this guy. Well, it's made, it's made them seem, it's made people like Joe Rogan seem conservative. It's made people like,

Like Bill Maher seemed more conservative than he certainly is. I mean, that's how far left they've gone that you've lost people like that on many issues, on quite a few issues. And so it's stunning what they've done to themselves. Yeah, and it feels like, because you mentioned TikTok in that earlier clip.

It feels like what the left did is they got excited about social media and influencers and TikTok, and they just decided to embrace kind of all that nonsense. And like, there is an effect of TikTok. Like, it is important. But, you know, the fact that Donald Trump gets billions of views is not going to be the reason he wins or loses this election. And I think the Democrats decided, oh, well, we're going to be big in that world. We're going to take their policies. We're going to hire the people who know that world. And they hired...

23 year old social media directors to you know wind up dealing with all their messaging and so now they just sound insane to most people yeah like wait a minute like you're you're hiring the people who are like advocating for you know tide pod you know uh eating and you're putting them in control your messaging and you're wondering why you're not connecting with the average voter like

Because you sound insane, right? Like when you're talking about people who are like faking Tourette's syndrome for views and...

You know, we're embracing the radical sort of trans ideology. Boys can just become girls whenever they feel like it just by saying it. Well, when those people are the people, not only are you looking to, but also hiring is the people who are working for these campaigns now. And when you go into a meeting and everyone around you thinks you are a hate monger, if you bring up that, you can't just change genders by words, right?

you wind up backing off or just even if you think because you know, there's an argument for Harris that would just be like, hey, like why don't we just come out and just take on the crazy left and people would think we're more moderate and we'd probably win but she can't do that. No. Can't bring herself to do it. No. Because she's number one, one of those people but also I think she has enough lust for power that she'd consider a move like that but there's so many people around her that would probably like leave the administration that she can't do it. It's Pat and Stu for Glenn today on the Glenn Peck program. More coming up.

Every day in this country, there are lives hanging in the balance that are simply cut short because of the evil of abortion. We've talked about that a lot today. You might be a pro-life person. I know I am. And you might want all this to stop. But it's like trying to stop a tank by throwing a brick at it, which is why abortion has to be rooted out in the hearts and the minds of Americans.

Yeah.

The left thinks that we do that, but we don't. We are taking these steps because they're important steps. When a mother sees her unborn child on that monitor, when she sees and hears the heartbeat, she is twice as likely to consider choosing life for her baby.

Patents due for Glenn today. He discussed, did Donald Trump, discussed with Joe Rogan tariffs. This is kind of interesting. Did you just float out the idea of getting rid of income taxes and replacing it with tariffs? Well, OK. Were you serious about that? Yeah, sure. But why not? Because we, ready? Our country was the richest in the, relatively, in the 1880s and 1890s.

a president who was assassinated named McKinley. He was the tariff king. He spoke beautifully of tariffs. His language was really beautiful. We will not allow the enemy to come in and take our jobs and take our factories and take our workers and take our families unless they pay a big price. And the big price is tariffs. And he'd speak like that, but he was right.

And then around in the early 1900s, they switched over stupidly to, frankly, an income tax. And you know why? Because countries were putting a lot of pressure on America. We don't want to pay tariffs. Please don't. You know, they believe me, they control our politicians. You know, if you could replace the income tax with tariffs, I might be in favor of tariffs.

Yeah. Under those circumstances. Yeah. I'm, you know, as I, as you're indicating as well, I'm not a tariff guy. I don't, I don't think they're good policy in most circumstances. That being said, the size of the government you would need to have to have a government supported only by tariffs. Sounds great.

It does. It's a lot smaller. And it's a government we used to have at one point. Yeah. You know, excise taxes, tariffs. That's how the nation made money. Now, that government did a lot less. Yeah. It did not do. Right. That's true. And I, of course, support that form of government. Yes, me too. You are cutting a lot to get to that point, which I am fine with. And look, if you got to a world where there was no income tax and the government was that small, I think that would be an improvement. Can you imagine?

However... It'd be huge. But getting rid of the IRS is going to be a real... Oh, my gosh. That's a real effort. Heavy lifting. I mean, you think, though, if anyone can do it, and probably... Donald Trump in conjunction with Elon Musk. Like, those two working together on a problem like that is exciting to me. I got to say... It is. As someone, you know, we've talked a lot about Elon Musk over the years. You know, I've read multiple biographies of the guy. Yeah.

He does do that stuff. He's not a talker when it comes to slicing things down to what is needed. Did you see that they asked him how much he thinks he could cut? And he actually said, I should be able to do $2 trillion. Yeah, $2 trillion. $2 trillion.

What? That would be great. Nobody has suggested you could trim $2 trillion. I mean, they call it radical when you say, well, we're only going to increase the budget by 1% a year. They call it radical. Right. Right? Yes. When the Tea Party, one of the big things that the Tea Party succeeded in was getting that, what was it called? Gosh, the word's slipping my mind right now. But it was basically saying, look, if we can't come up with a budget, if we don't hit these guidelines, then we're going to have to do this.

then we're going to cut across the board evenly by whatever percentage it was. This was treated as if it was like,

Of course, like it was Hitler as if Hitler cut budgets. Yeah. Hitler not known for cutting budgets or deregulating all that much. But like that was it was supposedly this terrible thing that was, you know, doing horrible things for the country. I didn't see any evidence of that. But imagine a two trillion dollar cut. What they would say about that. Look, you're going to pay the price for being called Hitler anyway. You might as well actually come up with conservative policies to go along with it.

earn it. Yeah. You know, I mean, if you're going to be called these terrible names that you don't care about women and you don't care about just, you might as well just at least get low taxes. Right. It'd be nice. Glenn Beck.

Glenn's back tomorrow. It's Pat and Stu for Glenn today. Got more from this Joe Rogan interview. It was three hours long. We're obviously not going to get to all of that. We can't get to the whole thing? Can't get to the whole thing. Why? No. What are you hiding, Pat? What happened in this interview that you do not want told? Was there a talk of a Nazi rally in it somewhere? No. No, there really wasn't. No, there wasn't. But they did talk about making America healthy.

And here's what they had to say about that. First of all, I love this idea of you teaming up with Robert Kennedy. Right. And I love this Make America Healthy Again idea because there are chemicals and ingredients in our food that are illegal in other countries because they've been shown to be toxic. There's pesticides and herbicides and there's a lot of shit.

that's been sprayed on our food that really is unnecessary and there's a lot of health consequences that people are suffering from a lot of these things. I brought this chart for you. Beautiful. Because I had a feeling you'd be asking me. Thank you. Look at this chart. These are healthier countries. Look where the United States is. I'm going to send this to

RFK Jr. So this is, well, something along the lines, I was actually talking to RFK today, and he told me that more than 70% of young men are ineligible for the military because of their health. I could see it. That's crazy. A lot of it's obesity. So here's the life expectancy versus health expenditure. Same chart. Yeah. Did you see that? USA. Wow, that's pretty good. Jamie's the best. He's very good. He's the best.

But look at that. Look at what the USA is. Not good. And that's our food. That's our diet. That's sedentary lifestyle. That's our diet. That's the chemicals we ingest. That's what that is. But RFK is going to be very – I think he's a great guy. I love the fact that you guys teamed up. And are you guys completely committed to have him a part of your administration? Oh, I am. But the only thing I want to be a little careful about with him is –

uh, the environment because, you know, he doesn't like oil. I love oil and gas. I think, you know, I think just keep them out of that fire. So I'm going to sort of keep them out of a little bit. I said, focus on health. You can do whatever you want, but, uh, I got to be a little bit careful with the liquid gold, you know, I understand. Yes. Yeah. There's a lot to comment on that. And some of it will be great to talk about next year. Um, but, uh,

The environmental part, please. Please, Lord God, keep him away from that. He's not good on that. And by the way, Elon Musk, too. Both of those guys, keep them away from the environment stuff. They're great. I mean, we're going to Mars because he's concerned that we're killing this planet. Yes. Elon Musk. Now, again, Elon Musk, I think, has come some distance. Yeah, he has. You know, he was even saying, like, we do need oil and gas for now until we get to some transition. Right. But I will, you know, I'm...

please keep RFK Jr. away from me. Please, please, please. Good God, please. And you know, look there, there's plenty to, I don't agree with a lot of that RFK Jr. says, but right. What I will say is,

Trump has the... If you happen to be concerned, maybe like I am, about some of RFK Jr.'s beliefs, the good thing about it is Trump can kind of just tell him to go away. My personal preference is that he unfortunately loses his number on November 6th. I don't know. We'll see how that works out. But, you know, because sometimes cell phones, they just delete phone numbers, but it's terrible. It's happened, though. It's happened. It has happened. That being said, if RFK...

RFK Jr. comes into the administration and starts doing crazy crap, he can just fire him. There's no... You can just let him go at any point. If he decides to come in and he does things that are consistent with conservative values, great. I don't know what... Look, he's

He says he's had a transformation. If that transformation comes in his actions, then he might be a very valuable part of whatever, of something. Something that I can't determine personally. But if he does, that would be great. The problem is that RFK Jr. has duped a lot of people into thinking that he's now a conservative. Right. And he is anything but. No, I mean... He is more aligned with conservatives on a couple issues, but mostly the guys of Flaming Liberal.

Yes. And look, if you can limit him to things that he's good on, then fine. Then that's fine. Right? That's fine. I think, you know, look, Tulsi Gabbard was running Bernie Sanders' campaign in Hawaii, right? And look at her now. And she's much different. And, like, you can find things with – Gabbard, I think, is a much more serious individual, personally. But you can find things, I think, where you can really – you know, Tulsi Gabbard would be very valuable on –

you know, RFK Jr., there might be stuff too. I think a lot of people are, you know, more into some of his views than I am these days. But that being said, I do think he's helped a

Donald Trump message to people like Joe Rogan and connect with that audience particularly well as a campaign tool. I think he's been helpful. Didn't Rogan actually endorse him for president before he got out of the race? I think I don't think it was a full endorsement. I think it was like that's the you know, you know, I think he said there's a lot to like about him or something. He didn't fully. It's funny when he said that though Trump lit him up.

Do you remember this? Yeah, I do. Trump was like, Joe Rogan's an idiot. Again, this is just what Trump does. We all know it. But it's good to see. I thought it was a really important thing. This campaign strategy by the Trump campaign, I think, has been very successful. Putting Trump in these types of situations where...

It's not like he's talking to Dana Bash. Right. Someone who hates his guts and is going to try to fact check him every time he makes a generalization.

This is like Trump gets to be Trump. He's likable in these interviews. Very. I think he's effective in these interviews. He doesn't mind being asked about anything, even when it's not about politics. He just seems relatable and likable. And that's like a big deal for a candidate. Kamala Harris can't do that. Not for three hours. Not for five minutes. Yeah, I was going to say, it's not even close. She's she's incapable.

of being likable. Everything about her is to avoid the fact, the campaign has done everything they can to try to avoid the fact that she's not likable. So Rogan also asked him about something that I'm really interested in and I'd like to see happen and that's the JFK assassination files. I'd love for that to become public knowledge. I'd love to see what they really know about that that has been kept from us for 60 years and they talked about that. What I want to talk to you about is the JFK files. Mm-hmm.

One of the things that you said was that if they showed you what they showed me, this was your quote, you wouldn't want people to know it either. So I opened them up partially. I was met with, from good people. I mean, you know, look, I mean, good people. People that were well-meaning. Mike Pompeo was one of them. He's a good person. They called me. They said, Sarah would rather have you not.

And I did open them, but I was asked by some people not to open them. There's a Martin Luther King file, too, by the way, that they'd like to see. I don't know if you know, but there is that. But JFK in particular. So they called me. A lot of good people called me. People that you would find reasonable people. And they asked me not to do it. So I said, well, we'll close it for another time. But...

If I win, I'm going to open them up. I'm just going to open enough times. Why didn't you open it up the first time? Because a lot of times... What was the hesitation? Addresses, people that are still living. There are people that are affected. And there could be some national security reason that I don't have to necessarily know about. But some very good, talented people asked me not to do it. I opened it up, and then they said...

Would it be possible for us to do that a different day? How much of it did you read into? I don't know.

I think it's going to be just fine to open it. Let me put it that way. I think it's fine. It's going to be time. It's a cleansing. You know, it's really a cleansing. So I'm going to do it. I'm going to do it immediately, almost immediately upon entering office. Well, the thing, when people look at it from the outside and you sort of imagine what could be a reason why they would not release those files, it would be there's people that were implicated in the assassination. Yeah. Well...

When there are living people, you generally tend not to want to do it. When people are still living. Living people that formerly worked for the government. For the government and living people that were somehow involved in it. And you tend not to do that. I mean, he doesn't mean... It's time to open them. He doesn't mean involved in the shooting, right? He means involved in some aspect of it. In the cover-up? I mean, whoever's involved...

that is at fault here should be exposed. I don't care if they're living or dead, they should be exposed. That can't be what he means, though. He's not like, hey, people who are actually responsible for the cover-up of the assassination, we don't want them to have a tough day. I think... I hope not. Maybe what he's getting at there is...

Like people who were part of the investigation that came to the opposite conclusion might wind up getting crap from people who believe the conspiracy. Yeah. You know what I mean? Innocent people who were compromised in some way. I don't know how you would, how they would be, but... Yeah, but I mean, you see this a lot with...

You know, conspiracy theorists have had a way over the years of occasionally targeting minor figures and blowing up their roles into big conspiracies. I mean, this has happened, you know, the left would argue that it happened with some of these election officials, for example, you know, random people who are working at polls and they got their name mentioned. And, you know, again, I.

Whether you believe this or not is not really the point here. The point is that if these names get out there and they didn't do anything, they might wind up suffering consequences that they don't deserve. So that could be an argument like an FBI official that actually... What you would do though in that case is redact those names.

certainly you'd address, redact addresses, phone numbers, names of people who weren't involved in anything nefarious. You just redact those names. And it's tough because we don't know what's in the files. So we can't, we're totally guessing at what he, I mean, I don't think Donald Trump is in the business of, of hiding and a coverup of the FBI who a lot of these, a lot of these, you know, these organizations, he doesn't even like.

So I don't think he would have any real motivation unless someone convinced him, hey, like, you know, this person who is actually a good guy is going to get bad effects out of this. That's the only thing I can think of. But it...

The way he phrased it, it made it sound like, hey, like it's the people responsible for it. You know, we don't want the guy who pulled the trigger to have a, you know, to be harassed. He's still alive. He's still alive. We don't want to do that. Yeah. He just kind of worded that kind of in a funny way. Yeah. All right. So on the other hand, Kamala's camp was asked about her doing Joe Rogan. Is that going to happen?

Can I ask you about Rogan? Was there a Rogan invite to the vice president that was turned down? Is it something you would consider doing, given the size of that audience and given that a lot of the folks that Trump seems to be targeting might be listening to that?

Well, yeah, I think that the vice president's happy to go anywhere and any place to talk to a broad segment of the country. We talked with Rogan and his team about the podcast. Unfortunately, it isn't going to work out right now. Oh, it's not going to work out. Because of the scheduling of this period of the campaign. Scheduling. Yeah, scheduling problem. You're not going to go on the biggest show in the world. No, it's too difficult right now. She's busy. Yeah, she had to do that Texas abortion rally. Right. You know, that was in the way of that. Actually, it wasn't in the way because it's in the same state.

So the whole, the whole negotiation was based around, Hey, we're going to be in Texas anyway. What if we come to the studios? And at least the reporting behind this, Pat, is that she demanded there would be a list of topics that would be off limits. My guess is, Hey, my husband's been hitting women is one of those topics.

That's a guess. That part of it is a guess. But the reporting is indicating that she wanted a list of things that were off limits. You know that's true. And of course. You know it's true. And unlike Trump, who by the way has plenty of stuff.

Right. Like, I mean, you go back. Imagine if he started asking about like, you know, past wives and all that stuff. Like he's comfortable talking about those things in his life. Right. Kamala Harris obviously is incapable of it. And she wants to hide things like her husband knocking up the nanny, her husband hitting women. Me too does not apply. Apparently a good old Dougie. No, it does not. So things like that, she did not agree with too. And that's why the Rogan camp was like, well, we're not going to do it if you're going to make rules.

Come out. Come talk to us. We'd love to talk to you, but we're not going to do it if you're going to give us all these rules. 888-727-BECK. More coming up.

This is the Glenn Beck Program. Pat and Stu for Glenn, 888-727-BECK. Let's see. I think we covered the Rogan thing, right?

I think so. And Harris is not going to be doing that. She's not going to be doing Joe Rogan because she's incapable of doing Joe Rogan or really any interview where you would be asked anything reasonably difficult. To be clear here, Pat, a lot of people are criticizing Kamala Harris's campaign for this decision.

It's a brilliant decision. It's absolutely the right decision. She should not go on the Joe Rogan podcast. Again, I want her to because I want her to lose. Yes.

If she goes on that podcast, it's going to be a catastrophe for her. He's not going to let her off the hook. She's going to be sitting there for two hours answering questions she does not want to answer. Not only about her husband, who might be a major Me Too violation, but also all of her policies. He'll sit there and just list them and make it as uncomfortable as possible. She absolutely should not do that interview unless you want her to lose, which I do. Well, it's incredible that she has literally changed everything

every policy position she ever had before for this particular campaign. So whether it's being against fracking, she wants a ban on fracking to now she's for fracking. Are you going to confiscate guns and have a mandatory buyback? No, she's not going to do that. She's not going to eliminate private health insurance, which she once advocated. She's not going to decriminalize border crossings. She's not going to have federal job guarantees. I mean, what do you answer?

Now, the economy is terrible. Inflation is much higher than it was under Trump. I mean, what could you possibly answer that is acceptable? There's nothing. There's nothing. And that's why she only has to go on CNN and MSNBC. The Glenn Beck Program. You know how if you eat non-nutritional food all the time, day after day, you're probably going to be a little unhealthy?

Have you seen the video of the Kamala supporter screaming in the face of the toddler?

I have not seen the video. I read a story that mentioned it and described it, and it sounded very disturbing. Bizarre. Did you watch the video? Yeah. Yeah. So disturbing. Well, sometimes toddlers can be annoying, Pat. You know, you just got to scream in their faces. Yeah. You know, that's a totally appropriate response for a sane individual. Or an adult human being. Yes. To scream in the face of a two or three year old. Yeah. It makes perfect sense. Here's...

Here's one of Kamala's supporters making perfect sense. Watch this. Here she comes. Is that bizarre?

And Lee laughing. A black woman just pulls this white woman away from the toddler and tells her to move on, essentially. We should note it may very well be another Kamala supporter. I don't know who it was. Yeah, it might have. We don't know who it was. There's somebody who's sane and steps in and tries to...

Uh, because she didn't like the toddler being there at the, I, I think this was outside the Trump rally. Yeah. I thought she said something to the effect of, I don't give a something if your dad is a, like it said something like that, like seemingly like yelling at the kid for her dad. Yeah.

We're screwed up as a society. Oh, we are messed up. I am still conflicted at some level in that is it just social media showing us the worst people in the world every single day? I don't know. Because, I mean, I will say I was out all weekend talking to people, you know, I had

My daughter had a softball tournament. My son had a baseball tournament. I talked to a million different parents, and they all seem kind of normal and cool. They don't seem like that. And I'm sure some of them are Kamala Harris is going to win probably 45% of the vote in Texas. Some of them had to be Kamala supporters. I just...

They don't all seem that nuts, but man, there's a lot of them that are. There are. It's just, it's really sad. It's just really sad. And it's to the point where you start wondering about humanity. Really? Are we at this point where people are screaming in the face of toddlers because they're

Their parents are at a rally of some kind from somebody that they don't agree with. So you're going to yell at the toddler rather than the adult human being behind the toddler. It just doesn't make any sense. And Pat, maybe an option is to not yell at either of them. Well, now that's just crazy talk.

Is it? It's just crazy talk. You can't just say, no, hey, you know, I don't agree with your tax policies. You wouldn't say something like that in a calm, normal, rational voice. Are you nuts? Yeah. Did you see the Dave Portnoy video that he put out? I think it was last week. I don't think so. He seems to be an unironic Swifty.

Like he like really likes Taylor Swift's music and likes her. Okay. And- Dave Portnoy is the, he owns- Founder of Barstool Sports. Yeah. Yeah. And he put out a video basically saying, you know, people are like, oh, I can't believe you like Taylor Swift. How can you like her if she supports Kamala? He's a Trump supporter.

And his answer to that was like, I'm never going to not like someone because of who they vote for. I don't care about that enough. Like I, I just, I like people based on who they are. Yeah. And it came off almost as like radical in this world. Like, like this is some sort of shocking development that people can't understand. Wow. That's it.

It's sad. It's sad that that's radical. I mean, look, I really don't like Kamala Harris. Really. I have a real passion against her policies. The amount of distaste I have for Tim Walz is impossible to measure. We have that in common. Oh, gosh, I can't stand him. He is way... I find him far more irritating than her for whatever reason. I don't know what it is. It's just...

No, because he is far more irritating than she is. Because she's really irritating. Yes, she is. And her policies terrify me. But he is... There's something unique about him. He is irritating to about the 1,000th power. What is it? It's like... Have you done a... I don't know. Some sort of mental audit as to why that is? I can't... I don't know why. There's just no describing it. He's just so grating to me. I can't imagine. Me too. And I mean this sincerely.

I can't imagine anyone liking him. Like, just him speaking in public. I wonder how he's married. How?

It's so irritating. It doesn't make any sense to me. There's a woman. I don't know. There's a female human being. It just sounds so weird. Who agreed to marry this guy? Right. And like, I could say the same thing about Kamala Harris. Like, I would not find her to be, enjoy a little be around on a routine basis. She seems really fake and inauthentic. But like, there's something about him that's special. And I don't know what it is. He's just like that. He's like in real life, that annoying sitcom dad.

You know, like that dad that like the stupid father who messes everything up and like the liberal daughter has to fix everything. And now he's the liberal, obviously. But like typically it's more of a like traditional dad who just, I can't, how dare you want to meet a black boy? I don't want you dating a black boy. You must date white people in like the 70s. And then like they'd be like, oh. And then at the end of the episode, he's like, I was wrong. He's like that guy. Everything like,

Yeah. He's so cringy and terrible. And I don't understand why anyone... Like, immediately what I think you take out of Tim Walls is, oh, this is fake. Like, this is just... It's immediate. And you get it from the second you look at him and you see him speak for the first time. It's so... It's like...

Inalienable rights. It's already determined before you even start down the road. This is going to be, if she loses, we'll be looked back at history as one of the dumbest decisions in the history of politics. He brings nothing to the table. He is a giant zilch. The only thing he brought to the table was calling J.D. Vance weird, which was such a failure that they had to abandon it.

And it was a failure because he's the one who's so weird. He's so weird and you would know it if you dealt. And inauthentic. It's such a great part with Kamala because if she had spent any time

dealing with actual normal people in the middle of the country she would immediately have known this was nonsense that he was fake and that this would not work but she's so disconnected he is the vision of what she thinks people in the middle of the country are like so she's like i don't know maybe these idiots racists in the middle of the country will like this guy

This absolute buffoon. And it is if she may still very well win this race. We'll give you a Pulsecast update here in a minute. She may very well win this race. But if she does, he will be no help to her. And if she loses particularly, and I almost want it to happen this way, I want her to lose Pennsylvania by like a point.

I want that to be the way this ends. Now, our whole country might be lit on fire, but I just want it to be centrally sent to her, whatever's left of her frontal cortex, that the reason she lost was this guy. Because she easily could have picked Shapiro. It probably would have moved the polls in Pennsylvania by a point. And...

it's just incomprehensible that she would pick this idiot to be her running mate. It started for me with the coach thing. Oh, God. When they were trying to sell the whole he's a coach thing. And so I thought, okay, he was a

high school head football coach? No. He wasn't even the head coach. He was like the linebacker coach or something. He was like the water boy of the football team. Well, there was rumors that he was the defensive coordinator, which is a role. It's a real role on a team. I don't know how good the defense was or whatever. But they made it out like he was the coach of the team. Yeah, football was his life. And he just hopped on for like a season or whatever, right? Like, it's nothing...

It's all fake. And that's the thing. Anyone, any normal person who deals with normal people in the middle of the country would have seen Tim Walls immediately and been like, oh, good God, no.

Anyone who, any advisor. But when you got a 23-year-old TikTok star as one of your main advisors. Then he's fine. Of course, he sounds fine. Yeah, I think that's what racists like. They like guys like that. Maybe the racists will vote for us. It's just unbelievable. Anyway, that was a total, we're going off topic. It wasn't even what we were talking about. Still. It's definitely worth it. I don't even know where we were going. I just can't stand Tim Walz that much. I, I, I.

I was talking to someone the other day. She's like, you know, my wife really likes her. Really likes him. Like Tim Walls? Tim Walls really likes him. I'm like, how? Oh my gosh. How could even his wife like him? I don't understand it. I don't understand it. It is impossible to understand to me. It's not. There are a hundred different people that fit the same profile as Tim Walls that I've interacted with in my life and I like all of them.

He is obviously not the same thing. He is...

a false version. It's like the sitcom dad thing. It's like what a LA Hollywood screenwriter thinks a dad in Minnesota is like. It's pathetic. And the way he comes out on stage every time, and then he had the unmitigated call. He had the giblets to say that Elon Musk skipped out on stage and was like... Jumping around. Jumping around. That was weird. That was weird. Are you... Have you seen you? Have you seen yourself? Have you met?

you right so bad so so bad and as glenn pointed out you know there was a period in time where like if you mock the social activities of someone with asperger's that might be looked down upon yeah maybe that wouldn't be the thing that would you would be leading with uh but apparently that's okay now it's okay for tim walls to do it doesn't matter and although not to his son

No. And look, it shouldn't be done to his son. You can't say anything about his son. No, it shouldn't. Literally the only thing I like about Tim Walls is his son. His son seems like he really loves his dad. And I like that. I'm a sucker for that. I'm even, at some level, a sucker for it with... This is going to sound... Even though he shouldn't like his dad, you were moved by the fact that he does. No.

But I even like Bronny James. He seems like a good guy. I don't like his dad at all. But there's part of me that likes the fact that his dad is ruining the NBA to get his kid to play with him. I kind of like it. I kind of like the nepotism. Yeah, I do too. There's part of me that's like...

That like makes it relate. I would love to, like if I grow up in my life, you know, as I get older and like I'm working with my son, I'll freaking love that. That'll be a great goal for my life to have my son and my daughter around to be able to do that later in life. Like I get all that, but like I don't get the Tim Walls thing at all. It's so...

It's just so inertly and obviously terrible. And like the fact that they had, I watched a speech of, I was going through the candidates for VP. Who was he going to pick? And I was doing my, you know, you could look at the odds on paper, right? And on paper, a guy like the Senator from Arizona, the astronaut guy, Kelly. Yeah, Mark Kelly. Was a really good pick. Yeah. You know, and then I was like. I was worried about that. I was worried about that pick. And I was like, well, let me do my, you know, like we were talking about football off the air as we usually do.

And, you know, you do, you can look at stats and you get an impression, but you also got to do the film work, right? Yeah. So I was doing the film work on the VP race. And the three mentioned are Kelly, Shapiro, and Walls. And so I'm going back and I'm watching old interviews. I'm watching speeches. I'm watching debates. And I watch a debate with Mark Kelly. I guess it was the senatorial debate. And I'm like, this guy's bad.

This guy's bad. They're going to look at their video and they're not going to pick him. Kelly, I thought, would be the pick because he solved a lot of issues for Kamala Harris. Patriotic and he could bring the gun issue into the conversation really easily with what happened to his wife, especially after Trump just got shot. People like astronauts. People like astronauts. People like military guys. There's a lot there on paper. But watching him in the debate, he's not good at it.

I mean, like he would his biggest moment would be bad because he was not good at that debate. He seemed to be the guy that Obama favored, too. It did. But I mean, watching doing the film work, you realize he's bad. I watched a conversation with Josh Shapiro. Shapiro did a press conference after the shooting, which happened in his state. And it was good.

Yeah, I saw that. It was good. He was, he wasn't like, well, maybe he didn't get, maybe that was glass that hit him. He didn't get shot with a bullet. It was none of that. He came off as really worried about it, was horrified by it. It was convincing. He was a good messenger. I came out of all that and was like, hold, I didn't even consider walls as a possibility after watching him. I was like, there's no way they're going to pick this buffoon.

But I was nervous about Shapiro. Like, Shapiro, and I will be nervous about him in 2028. He might wind up being where really fake, there could be more to it. But like, on the surface, worrisome. Yeah, he can come off reasonable. Yeah, and then they pick walls. Hilarious. 888-727-BECK. More coming up in one minute. Hilarious is the word.

Pat and Stu for Glenn today. Did you see Kamala get booed in Houston? You hate to see it. Oh, it's so disappointing. Darn it! Man! Oh, well, let's move past it. And show you that moment that was so troublesome to so many of us when she got booed at her own rally because Beyonce didn't sing. And from the moment of conception...

so her crowd tries to cover it up with the kamala kamala expression and go i guess you're the smaller rally down the street and he wasn't doing a rally down the street but and it won't be smaller either is that tucker carlson in the background there's just a guy that looks like a mini tucker carlson behind him okay so they keep and they keep booing

Because they're pissed that she didn't perform as they were promised. So this isn't a Trump supporter booing. No, these are Kamala supporters who came to the rally, apparently, to see Beyonce sing. That's how she got so many people there. And now they're leaving. And she's saying, okay, goodbye. Goodbye. Go to the smaller rally down the street.

And look at the fake smile, like she's like, "What is the calculated facial expression I need for this moment?" Oh, joyful smile! Engage joyful smile! Disengage, yelling about fascism! When they go low, we go high or something! Yeah, or something.

Wow. Wow, that's pretty significant. Yeah, it really is. It's amazing. There's another guy that looks like Donald Trump Jr. behind her. What is happening? Oh, yeah, I see that guy. Yeah. This is bad. This is worse than I had imagined it from the stories I had read about it. It's very long and...

Well, look, we all know Beyonce's a huge star. That's how she's getting these rallies filled. Yeah. Oh, absolutely. Not coming for her. Not coming for Kamala. No. And they did the same thing with Lizzo.

A few weeks ago. Last week or the week before. And it was the same thing. And she didn't perform either. But that's how they're getting people at these rallies. And I think they had 2,000 at that particular rally. And she did the same thing. People are going, you should be even in the smaller rally down the street. Which was 7,000 plus people. Now, which one's higher, though, Pat? Which one's larger? Which one?

If you do the math on that. I'm going to go the 7,000. 7,000 is larger than two. That's confirmed. But only three and a half times. But only three and a half times. Well, that's not that much. Pretty much the same thing. That's not bad. It's really close. Really, really close. All right. 888-727-BECK. We're coming up. Glenn Beck.

You can laugh about the possibility of nuclear war all you want. And I know most people do. Glenn's the one that does that. It's just nuclear war. There's much worse stuff coming than that. We're closer to it now, though, than we really have been in decades, maybe ever. And that's only the worst case scenario. We're also looking at potential food shortages in the country brought on by an intentionally mismanaged and inflationary economy.

So we covered the vice presidential candidate from the other side, Tim Walz.

But how about J.D. Vance? What are your thoughts on J.D. Vance now?

He's been great. I really like him now. I mean, I think it's been arguably the best performance by a vice presidential candidate that I can remember. He's powerful. He's really good at this stuff. I don't know who you'd even compare it to. I don't know either. He's just, he's been great. He's been great. He's gone into unfriendly territory over and over and over again, handled it with ease. Yep. He's been generally likable. He dominated the debate. Yep.

You know, and really this comeback here from Trump when he was down maybe a month ago or whatever. We can go through the details on this in a second if you want. But it really started arguably with that VP debate. Yeah. I was just railing about walls being horrible. But like him with Vance beating him really set off the...

the momentum that has carried Trump into the lead here. I think so too. As bad as Tim Walls is, I think JD Vance has been that good. Yep. I agree. And he was in unfriendly territory again over the weekend with Jake Tapper on CNN. And here's what happened there.

Ask yourself a basic question about network integrity. You guys talked about the Russia hoax nonstop. The FBI was investigating it. The FBI was investigating it, so we recovered them. And so you took the words of unnamed FBI agents and put them on your network as if they were the gospel truth. You did it again and again. A viewer of your network would have believed that Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin conspired in 2016. No. That was totally and preposterously false. What you just said is false. We covered an FBI.

be a seven percent of what i want to believe talk about the f_b_i_ investigation you covered it in a way that gave credence to anonymous sources accusations you did it yourself your network did it jake can we talk about the issues that americans can i'm talking about things that donald trump has said yes if you have any and it's all about whether or not he's talking about the economy enough

That's between you and your running mate. I'm talking about things he has said this week. Every single rally that he does, he talks about how he wants to unleash American energy so we can lower the cost of groceries. He talks about the fact that housing has become unaffordable. He talks about the wide open border, Jake. Kamala Harris and her allies... You know what's interesting? Kamala Harris and her media allies... And I would put CNN in this category. You guys seem to care. I'll tell you that. They wouldn't. Well, they should watch your network more because...

You guys seem to care more about Donald Trump's past than the future of the American people. We're running this campaign on making of the American dream. I'm specifically asking about how Donald Trump is going to be president in the future. Should he win? And then we're being told we're going to pursue economic.

policies that lower the cost of groceries and make life more affordable again. He talks about it every single day on the campaign trail, and so do I. What you're talking about is an anonymously sourced story, or one guy who is a disgruntled employee, where five other people pushed back against him and said that what he said was dishonest, so why don't we talk about the

policy that's affecting American citizens and not what Donald Trump allegedly said, according to one guy who's pissed off because he got fired by Donald Trump. That's so good. He's just really good at this. Yeah.

He is really good at this. It's not easy. And, you know, Tapper's, you know, not easy to... No. He's not like, you know, there are certain journalists that's easy to kind of just roll over because they're really stupid. I mean, Tapper, I don't think, falls into that category. He really doesn't like Donald Trump, though. No. That's his weak spot. It is. Yeah, I agree with that. But, I mean, look, and CNN is...

obviously been an ally of the Harris-Walls campaign. And you know who knows that is Harris-Walls. The reason why, and I think Tapper... And so does Tapper. Tapper knows. He's not stupid. It is true that they would say they get bad coverage from CNN because that's what they say about everybody. They're complaining to the refs. Yeah. Right? They're being LeBron James.

They're whining about every single call, hoping to get more in the future. But everyone knows that CNN has been incredibly helpful to, or at least attempting to be very helpful to Harris and her campaign. No question. There's no doubt about that. And maybe not to the level of MSNBC. I've seen a couple of their anchors. Anderson Cooper was making this point the other day. Well,

Like, you know, I don't want to be on MSNBC. I'm not that guy. And it's like, there is a difference. I mean, I've watched enough of this to torture myself. Like, there is a difference between CNN and MSNBC. MSNBC is more outright advocacy all the time. That being said, CNN's not that far behind them. It's not close. And the only reason they're not...

As blatant about it is that I think that there's a part of them that almost wants Trump to be elected because he's good for their ratings. Yeah. I mean, they've never had better ratings than when Trump was in office. And so I think they'd like to see that again. There's definitely people who work there who think that way. I think so. I don't think it's the people who are on the air or making editorial decisions. Hmm.

I think there are business people, though, behind the scenes. The salespeople are like, could please just give us Donald Trump. Please, Lord God, I can't sell another one of the same five sponsors over and over again. Like you get Donald Trump in there, the left gets all fired up. Lots of people watch and you get some money out of it. I think there is a consideration there.

And they might get their wish because some of the polls are looking pretty good for him. Yeah. Let's go through this. I don't know if we have the Pulsecast graphic today, but we can give you the update if we happen to have it. Regardless, the update is Donald Trump at a 53.98% chance to win the election. This is ahead of Kamala Harris, who is at 46.02%. Now, I want to put this in perspective for a minute.

You can kind of like if you this is, by the way, continuing Donald Trump's rise. He has now risen about 10 percent, more than 10 percentage points from just a month ago.

Wow. Significant movement. And again, around 43. He was around 43. Well, remember, this is not like a prediction of how I'm feeling about it or how Pat's feeling about it. This is just all the data, right? These are the election models made by data experts. These are mainstream polling averages. These are a prediction markets. Okay. All this stuff that we look at to determine where the race is.

this is what it's showing. So this is not like some Trump fan. Almost all the people who are doing the things that go into this data are mainstream, nonpartisan or left, right? Like there are not a lot of conservative data going into this. And if you kind of look at the campaign since Kamala got into the race, there have been four distinct phases of this race.

First, the initial rise of Kamala Harris. Okay. That was in August, basically the month of August. She came from out of nowhere, obviously was, you know, coming off of Biden's really bad poll numbers, but she came from out of nowhere and she took, took the lead, a slight lead. Then you have that burst of that bubble, which was the first two weeks of September. You have the post debate bump for Kamala Harris, which is the next two weeks, first, the last two weeks of September. And then the Trump comeback, which has been the entire month of October. Okay.

Of those four phases, the largest move in the entire model of the Pulse cast has been this Trump comeback. It is now the most significant development since Kamala Harris got into the race. Wow. Now, it's not being covered that way. I think there is some fear from the left that they are like, oh, terrified that, you know, Donald Trump might win. I think there's some optimism on the right.

It is, I think the, you know, statistically speaking, the largest move in this race is the month of October. And this Trump comeback is taking him from a 43% chance to win, which is a 14 point percentage point deficit. 57 to 43 is where he was a month ago. Now he leads 53 to 47 and a percent chance of win. So that is, it's not vibes. The data suggests the vibes are real, right?

I will add the addendum here that what we're talking about here are still really small differences. We're talking about a, basically a borderline toss-up race in Kamala's favor turning into a borderline toss-up race in Trump's favor. That's significant, but in this race, the biggest moves are still small and within the realm of possibility of either candidate winning. I mean, 53-47 or 54-46 is not significant.

A blowout, right? You'd still look at that and you'd say, oh gosh, this is going to be close. It's just a little bit better than flipping a coin. But that is what the data is saying. The change is real. The optimism that you're feeling, there's reason for it. Not just beyond what you might hope is happening, but what is actually happening within the mainstream data. That's a pretty big change.

Yeah, that's a huge turnaround. How are you feeling about it? It feels like he's going to win. And I don't know, during the summer, especially late summer, it felt like maybe not. But now it's turned around, it feels like. When you say late summer, you're talking, you're into September there when Kamala's getting that bump. Yeah, late August, September, people would ask me and I'd be like, I hope he wins.

Now I feel like he's going to win. You do feel that way. I do. Yeah, I do feel like that. I mean, I would rather be him than her. I don't feel...

passionately confident about making any sort of prediction right now and i you know with one week left i suppose i'm not going to get there i feel like i'm going to end i'm going to go on we're going to have blaze tv i mean we're eight days away yeah so yep a week from tomorrow yeah we're gonna have blaze tv election coverage by the way join blaze tv if you'd like to be a part of that blaze tv.com slash glenn promo code is fight fight fight you can save 40 bucks off your subscription to blaze tv we're gonna have really good coverage i think you're really gonna like it

And it's going to be different than the mainstream media. We're going to have great guests and great analysis as the night goes on. But like, I think I will enter that coverage that day without an idea of really what's going to happen. I will be surprised at this point that the polling is going to reveal some late surge that means, oh, this person's definitely going to win or I'm really confident in their chances. I think we're going to be looking at this going into that last night and thinking, I don't know. I mean, I,

The vibes are good. Mm-hmm. You know, it feels like Donald Trump's doing well. It's hard to imagine the country could be this stupid. Like, I really do feel like it. Right. That's one of those things that I have faith in the country and I have high hopes for the country and its future. And it's like, how could a group of people be this dumb? It's sort of like I fall back on that at times. Mm-hmm.

And I also fall back on like looking at their flailing late moment strategy here. Yeah. Like if the stuff they were doing was working, they wouldn't be saying Hitler all the time. It wouldn't make any sense. She wouldn't be going on these interviews. She wouldn't be, you know, talking about fascism. Right. That is not, those are not the actions of a campaign that believes it's ahead. No, that's right. And that's comforting. Yeah.

Somewhat. Yeah, it is somewhat. Slightly comforting. They have so much support in the media that...

that you're worried that some Americans are going to be duped by it. Yeah. Oh, yeah. And I know some Americans are being duped by it. The question is, can they get to the high enough percentage for them to win? I hope not. I hope not, too. I mean, I would say Georgia and Arizona look relatively good for Trump. After that, though, with the other five swing states, it's not easy to get there. How many does he have to win?

He needs to... So let's say... Of the seven. The easiest way to think about this is thinking of the swing states, seven swing states in two groups. So one group, the Sun Belt, you've got Arizona, Nevada, Georgia, and North Carolina. Basically, Trump needs to win all of those. The easiest way to think about this is Trump wins all of those and picks off one blue wall state, which would be... Pennsylvania, Michigan, or Wisconsin. One of the three. That's all he needs. If he can do...

all of that, he can win. But you see how this is not sure, right? Like he's, he can't blow one of those states or have bad luck without picking off another blue wall state. Now he can win all three of the blue wall states. And I will be, I will not be surprised at all. If Donald Trump sweeps all seven of these swing states and he, and that will, it will still be a close election, even if he does that, because some of those states will be close and he will have over 300 electoral votes and it won't feel like a close election, but in reality, it still will be.

But I wouldn't be surprised at all if he sweeps all seven of them or wins six out of the seven of them. But again, she doesn't need to do as well. She only needs to pick off a couple of weird states and she can pull this thing off. So it's far from a sure thing, Pat. 888-727-BECK. More coming up.

And the Los Angeles Times have both decided they're not going to endorse a candidate, meaning they're not endorsing Kamala Harris. Right, because there's no consideration that they would endorse Donald Trump. No. First of all, this is the way it should be. Right. Right? I think so. Newspapers should not make endorsements. It's stupid. Right. It's always been stupid. I've never liked it. I don't like it when my candidate gets endorsed by a newspaper. It's dumb.

It's always been dumb. Well, news is the first word of paper, the first part of newspaper. I've noticed that, yeah. News, yeah. So they're supposed to be non-biased, right? Right. And even if you are biased, you give your viewers or readers at least an impression that you're trying. But they're not even trying. Right. Like the New York Times wrote an op-ed the other day, I think it was yesterday, that said...

Kamala Harris is the only patriotic choice for president. Meaning anyone who votes against Kamala Harris is unpatriotic. Unbelievable. Now,

Hillary Clinton correctly got some heat for her deplorables thing, but it was way, way less offensive than that. She was saying like a group of them are like, well, a lot of them are good, but some of them fall in that basket of deplorables. And that was bad enough. They're saying every single Trump voter is unpatriotic. Jeez. That's the stance of the paper of record. Incredible. It's incredible. It's incredible. And you got a couple of...

left-leaning newspapers that have refused to... But that's how bad Kamala is. The Washington Post and LA Times won't even endorse her. That should tell you something. All right, Glenn's back tomorrow. Check him out then. The Glenn Beck Program.
