Key Insights

Why is Wisconsin considered a challenging state for polling?

Historically, polls in Wisconsin have underrepresented the white male vote, leading to underestimations of Trump's support.

Why might the polls be underestimating Trump's support in 2024?

Polls may be underestimating Trump due to historical trends of underrepresentation, especially among certain demographic groups like white males in swing states.

Why did Kamala Harris pull her advertising from North Carolina?

Harris likely pulled ads from North Carolina due to the state's historical solidity for Republicans and the perceived lack of coattail effects from the gubernatorial race.

Why is Arizona considered a unique swing state?

Arizona is unique due to its focus on immigration as a top issue, which aligns more with Republican candidates, and its unusual gender voting patterns.

Why might Nevada be leaning towards Trump in the polls?

Nevada might be leaning towards Trump due to higher Republican early voting numbers and issues with Hispanic polling accuracy.

Why is Pennsylvania considered a crucial state in the election?

Pennsylvania is crucial because it was Biden's home state and a key battleground; its outcome could significantly impact the electoral college results.

Why did the media react so strongly to Trump's garbage truck stunt?

The media reacted strongly to Trump's garbage truck stunt as part of their ongoing effort to discredit him and align public perception with their narrative.

Why might Trump's recent campaign stunts be effective?

Trump's stunts are effective because they humanize him, tap into his authentic persona, and connect with voters in a way that his opponents cannot.

Why did the Lincoln Project try to equate Trump's comments about Kamala Harris's staff with Biden's 'garbage' comment?

The Lincoln Project tried to equate the comments to divert attention from Biden's gaffe and create a false equivalence to undermine Trump.

Why might Joe Biden's recent behavior with babies be concerning?

Biden's behavior with babies is concerning because it reflects a lack of filter and appropriate boundaries, raising questions about his cognitive state.

Welcome to the Megyn Kelly Show, live on Sirius XM channel 111 every weekday at noon east. ♪♪

Hey, everyone. I'm Megyn Kelly. Welcome to The Megyn Kelly Show, and happy Halloween. Everyone has a Halloween tradition, giving out candy. If you come to my house and you just stick out your bag, you're getting nothing. There's a ritual. There's a routine, kids. And then I'll say, what do you say? And then they'll say, thank you. And I'm like, no. No, it's a very simple transaction. Why don't your parents prepare you? You say, trigger treat. Then I give you the candy. Then you say, thank you. Anyway,

It's just a matter of time before my house gets egged. But I believe in instilling manners. Maybe you like to just scare the kids in the neighborhood. Maybe you have a haunted house. Or if you're President Joe Biden, you might bite a few babies. That's a thing. Our executive producer, Steve Krakauer, cannot get over this story. Some moments we have for me, for you, and some we have for him. We'll get to that in just a bit.

And I want to remind you that we will be live here on the MK show on election night, just five days away from right now. Five, five, five or count them on Sirius XM triumph channel one 11, as well as on youtube.com slash Megan Kelly beginning at 8 PM Eastern time. We will have, Oh, such a cast of favorites. I don't know. Last time I checked Steve, what do we have? Like

40, I don't know, something like 30 of your favorite guests who are going to be here to pop in, to tell you what they think, to track the election results. We've got data gurus, we've got politics gurus, we've got regular people who you know and love, and we will find out together, I hope, what the next four years will be. We will find out together. I assume you guys will trust me for the coverage after Tuesday if we don't know on Tuesday, but I'm still hoping in

Am I the last one that we might actually know on Tuesday night? And I still kind of believe we might. Maybe I'm crazy. I don't know. To help us get ready for all of that, we are going to start the show looking at what the polls are showing us because we've had some whack job polls dropped in the last day or two. Or are they? To help break down the complicated mixed bag, we're seeing Spencer Kimball, director of Emerson Polling.

Okay, so explain the CNN poll. Okay, because the CNN poll, everything seemed to be kind of going one way where it was tightening and it was getting a little bit closer. And Trump was tying it up in each state, if not taking a lead.

But that was good for him because he'd been down three or down one to be down three and then up one or down three and then tied was good. And then comes this CNN poll. And I realize life does not revolve around CNN, but the CNN poll did drop and it's got a big lead in there for Harris in Michigan and in Wisconsin, like plus five in each state. Do you believe it?

Well, Megan, a poll is a range of scores. And so when we put out a poll result of, let's say, Trump up by one point, that range could be Trump winning by four or Trump losing by two. So when you see a poll that has, let's say,

Harris up by five points in Wisconsin, that poll still indicates that yes, Harris could win by five. She could win by 11, but she could also lose by a point. So to me, that, that type of number is really on the outside, the fringe end of what you'd expect.

In 2020 in Wisconsin, the polling generally had Biden up around six points and he won that state by less than one point. Michigan had a similar type of polling error. And this is not just CNN, but generally across the polls under under reporting the Trump vote. So, yeah, when you take a look at some of these polls.

They seem a little as an outlier in the fact that like Michigan or Wisconsin, Wisconsin's been a one point race back in 2016. It was a one point race in 2020. Do we really think it's going to bounce five or six points in a direction when it's been so locked in? And then if you jump over to Michigan, do you think Michigan is closer or further away for the Democrats than they were in 2020 when Biden wins by just over two points?

This would suggest that Harris is doing better than Biden when a lot of the other polling, particularly the national polling, is also showing the race tightening closer to 2016 numbers than compared to 2020.

Okay. So having dealt with CNN, which you seem to be suggesting may be a bit of an outlier, um, you know, take it with a grain of salt and they haven't been doing a ton of polling. Like I think their last poll was, uh, a few, a couple of months ago. So they don't, I don't know if they have their finger on the pulse or what's happening there, but having dealt with that zoom out and tell us where you think this race stands.

Well, yeah, if we take a look at like the big picture, remember where we were in July and August, where Trump takes this big lead when Biden is faltering and then Harris jumps into the race and then she appeared to take a big lead of four or five points nationally. But what we've seen really since that first debate, even a little bit before that debate, is a slow melt of that support for Harris. And what it looks like coming into the election is there's some momentum for Trump

as we enter election day in some of these states. And remember, he doesn't need to win all of the swing states just to get to the 270 mark. And when you do look at that polling as a whole, for example, Pennsylvania, we don't see many polls having Harris leading

in Pennsylvania. You see polls that are tied or they're slightly leading towards Trump. Pennsylvania is a key state for the Democrats. If they lose Pennsylvania, really difficult road to 270 for Harris. So that's a number that as you take a look at, it looks like Pennsylvania should go towards Trump. And that would suggest he would have some success on election night. But if Pennsylvania does flip,

and stays with Harris, that opens up some other pathways that we've been seeing. But the general take is that Harris is doing slightly worse than Biden in 2020. And the question is, is it worse enough for Trump to be able to overtake her in states like Arizona,

Arizona, Georgia, Wisconsin, all within a point. You know, those are all states that ended up within a percentage point. The other states that are a little bit further away would be Pennsylvania and Michigan. But those are also very competitive. Most of them have it tied or within a point on either side.

Okay, so let's talk about possible paths because as I was looking at the numbers today, and you know, you can just Google those interactive maps and start clicking on what if she wins these states, what if he wins those states? Because I was looking, I compared the path, the possible paths to the latest battleground averages taking the

Real clear politics and 538 averages of all polls. And for example, I looked at Georgia. RCP average has Trump up 2.4. 538 has Trump up 1.8 in the average of all polls. The latest Emerson poll, which was earlier in October, showed Trump up one. So it looks tight, but it looks somewhat comfortable given the comparison states for Trump. Agree or disagree?

I would agree. Even with our poll at one point, the previous poll was at three points. And so we were seeing some movement in Georgia, but I think Georgia is a pretty strong state for Trump. He seems to be getting along with Governor Kemp fairly well at this time. And those numbers are around, I think,

what you mentioned on the aggregate around two to three points, which remember Trump does better in 2016 when he wins the state and then Biden barely takes it in 2020. Maybe it falls in between those two numbers, but it seems to be leaning towards Trump at this time.

Just the makeup with Kemp should be worth 11,000 votes. You would think we did see his numbers shift almost immediately after those two patch things up. Okay. North Carolina, there was a report earlier this week. I don't know how much stock to put in it, frankly, because it hasn't been everywhere and the polls still show North Carolina tight, but there was a report by the Carolina journal that she had pulled some $2 million worth of her advertising from North Carolina and

And she had made like a two point three or four million dollar ad buy and she pulled almost all of it out. And it's not because she's running away with North Carolina. You know, it's not like she's up 10. This is looking more like Minnesota. So why spend the money there? But it being as tight as it appears to be in the polls, you also wonder why she would throw in the towel there, given that her campaign is rich. They have a lot of money.

So I don't know what's happening in North Carolina. It's strange to me that she'd pull the ads given what I see in the polls, but maybe you can help me. RCP average has Trump up one 538 has Trump up 1.1. The Emerson poll, your group in late October show Trump up two.

Yes. And so North Carolina is one of those states that Harris is trying to win back from the Republicans. So it's always trying to win, you know, a game on the other team's home field. And North Carolina would be a Republican home field like Georgia is a Democratic home field where they're trying to hold that at those electoral votes that Biden won and the Republicans are trying to take that back.

But North Carolina, I always thought, was a bit of a stretch for the Harris team. This is a state that Trump won in 2016 and in 2020. It's been a state that has been pretty solid. Remember, it goes for Obama in 08 and then switches back to Romney in 2012. So North Carolina historically would be a hard state for Harris to try to break through on. I know that the Democrats were a little bullish with Mark Robinson, the lieutenant governor, gubernatorial candidate for the Republicans.

showing a weak campaign against Stein, thinking that there might be some reverse coattails. But we're not necessarily seeing that in our numbers. It looks pretty, you know, even though two points isn't huge, it's still within the polls margin of error. But it's a big number to overcome for the Democrats. And I think that's maybe why she pulled some of that ad buy out of North Carolina, because if Stein is still only at 12 points,

13 point lead in that gubernatorial race, that might not be enough to pull her over the top. And in fact, we see a much more ticket splitting when we see folks going on the Trump side, willing to balance their ticket that way. So I don't know if it's going to help Harris in that regard in North Carolina.

I mean, I can see a real MAGA voter in North Carolina being like the lieutenant governor is a hot mess. I don't believe his denials on all of his weird scandal, but I love Trump. I'm not going to make Trump pay for this guy's scandal. So I guess. Well, Megan, to your point. Yeah, go ahead.

I was going to say, you know, he's been down. Robinson's been down by double digits for months and it hasn't impacted the top of the race. You know, as you mentioned, those polls have it tied or one point. It's probably leaning to Trump by about one to two points. But that's going to be a lot to overcome considering the situation.

Mm-hmm. Okay. So let's go. We did Georgia. We did North Carolina. Let's talk about Arizona. RCP has Trump up 2.5, 538. Again, this is the average of all polls and they, they curate the polls. They don't take any poll in these averages. They, they only include the top notch pollsters with a proven record like Emerson and others. Okay. So five, uh, 538 has 2.2. So up 2.5, up 2.2 in the averages, Emerson had 538.

Trump up to in early October. What do you think is happening in Arizona? Arizona as a border state is a little different than these other states we've talked about because immigration is their top issue. So when we talk about the swing states, it's generally the economy is the top issue at around 40 percent. But in immigration, it drops down to about 30 percent and immigration is at 30 percent.

And then what's also interesting in Arizona, which is different than these other swing states where females are voting for Harris and males are voting for Trump in Arizona, both males and females are breaking for Trump, not by the same propensity like we're seeing of males in other states. But both both genders are breaking, which is unusual considering there has been a gender divide in in this race previously.

But in Arizona, it's unique. I think the immigration issue, it separates it from the other swing states. And that's been a state that Trump has been leading for a while. The Senate race there is different, where Gallego seems to have a small but steady lead over Lake, pretty consistent. So again, the ticket splitting is what we're seeing, where they'll go with Trump. Even though they went with Biden last time, this is a state where Trump could try to win back those 11 electoral votes.

Wow. I mean, Arizona has gone more and more blue lately. They've got this Democrat governor. They've got Democrat senators. So is Arizona still a red state? Would you say? I mean, I realize it's one of the swing states, but is it in its nature? Do you think it's like it's more red than blue?

Well, I think the issues are more red, but I think the voters are more purple and they're willing to vote across aisle lines. They're not, you know, locked in with one of the parties like we may have seen in the past. I don't think it's Barry Goldwater country exactly what, you know,

was back in the day. But yeah, there's an inkling based on the issues, particularly on the immigration side, to try to get that resolved and solved. And so those line up better with Republican candidates. But as you mentioned, the Democrats do have, they were able to take both Senate races and the governor's race. So

Arizona has definitely been open to the Democratic approach, but they've also rejected too far of a progressive Democrat. And that's what makes the Gallego race really interesting, that he's been able to hold on to that lead, even though he's a little bit more progressive than where Arizona tends to be.

Yeah. You got Mark Kelly. But I mean, Gallego, he's definitely a progressive guy, but they just don't seem to be responding well to Carrie Lake for, you know, a host of reasons. She was on the podcast saying, I disagree. My internal polls say that these polls are wrong. We'll find out very soon whether any of that is true. Okay. So that's, so, so far based on this discussion,

it would appear Trump is actually looking good in Georgia, in North Carolina and in Arizona and Nevada. Remarkably, Spencer seems so far to be leaning Republican. Doesn't mean things won't change over the next five days as the voting continues, but like something incredible is happening in Nevada.

Well, Nevada, you know, used to be more of a swing state. It has become more Democrat over the last six to eight years. Obama helped make it more Democrat, but they've been pretty strong at like two, two and a half points for Clinton, two, two and a half points for Biden.

Biden. Now the race is much tighter. It's about a half a point. I still think it leans towards Harris, but Trump has made up a lot of ground. Again, the Senate race seems Jackie Rosen's got a stronger lead over the Republican Brown by a couple of points. So you're not seeing any coattails from Trump.

moving down perhaps. But that's a state where I think the Democrats can still hold it. It's six electoral votes, which are important, but it could also swing. It's really rolling the dice there in the silver state. Those polls have been really tight. Now, what's interesting there is that you've got this huge Hispanic population and Hispanic polling is really difficult to do. Some Hispanic in the Hispanic community, they're much more, you know,

not as confident of taking the polls. They're not willing to answer the phones or give out that information. And so sometimes that polling can get a little wonky out there. But what we've seen is a pretty consistent close race between these two candidates for a couple of months.

But what I'm basing my comments on are the John Ralston reports on how the early voting seems to be going. And it seems we discussed this with Charlie Kirk yesterday, like the Republican votes coming in are exceeding anything they've seen in the past.

and from counties that they didn't expect, like the Democrats so far, the response in Clark County, which is where that's how they win the elections out there, right? Clark County, it's the Vegas district. That's how the Democrats win are a lot. The Democrat response has been lower and the Republican response has been higher than they anticipated. So right now, if you're Trump, you have to be feeling better than you've ever felt before about your chances in Nevada.

You do. And those early voting numbers that you've referenced, it's important to see the Republicans, I believe, are plus five. They're about thirty nine percent of the vote versus thirty four percent for the Democrats in these early vote, which is counter to where the Republicans were four years ago. Now, are they cannibalizing their Election Day vote or is there even more Republican vote that's going to come out? If that's the case, then Trump will take the state because he's

He's leading right now in the early voting. I presume the Democrats will get a push through their culinary unions or other groups out there to try to match that vote. But those are important numbers to follow over the next few days, because if the Democrats don't match that 39 percent,

The conventional wisdom is the Republicans will have a better day of get out the vote effort and should be able to maintain whatever advantage if they have one on election day. Well, it'll also really be interesting to see whether the culinary unions and so on do what the Teamsters did, where the pressure from the top is to get out and vote and to vote blue. But the rank and file don't listen. They they don't want who the people who are running the union want.

And they go into the voting booth and they do what they think is right. So, you know, it's just with Trump, it's not as clear cut as it used to be when it comes to the union vote. So I even that I I don't know. I'm not sure the Harry Reid union machine is going to be as helpful to the Dems as it has been.

I think that's a great point, Megan. And it's not just in Nevada. It's Michigan. It's Pennsylvania. What we're seeing is this whole change of the electorate happening right in front of our face. And sometimes you don't recognize it when, you know, the wind's blowing in all these directions. But I can see the working, the union votes shifting a little bit from left to right and then more of that elite movement.

higher educated vote, shifting a little bit more from the right to the left. And we'll see how it all balances off on November 5th. But it seems as if the electorate is being shaken up this election cycle. OK, so of the four states I just listed, which would give Trump the presidency, North Carolina, Arizona, Georgia and Nevada, which is the one most likely to go blue and not red? Nevada.

Yeah. Okay. So that would be six electoral votes over to the blue side. And that would mean Trump would need to win one of the blue walls. He would have to win Wisconsin, Michigan, or Pennsylvania, which are tougher. I think that's a tougher road. I mean, again, Nevada, as you point out is more of a blue state, but given the weirdness, as we just discussed might not be on gettable for him. So which of the three blue walls is he looking the best in Wisconsin, Michigan, or Pennsylvania?

So in our polling, we've seen him strongest in Wisconsin and Wisconsin was a state that he lost by half a point. Uh, remember Michigan and Pennsylvania, he loses by a larger amount, about two, two points in Michigan, about a point in Pennsylvania. Remember Nevada is a state where in 2020, Nevada is a state where, uh,

Biden wins by just over two points. So out of those states, Wisconsin was the closest of them. And what we've seen pretty consistent in all of our polling is a zero to one point Trump advantage. And it's not a huge advantage, but we have consistently seen in Wisconsin polling under-represent Trump. So in all of the polls, not just the Emerson poll, every poll out there generally has underrepresented Trump in 2016 and again in 2020.

And when I say it's like five points, six points. So to me, anything in Wisconsin that's tied the conventional wisdom is that Trump will take it because we're underrepresenting. It's not intentional. We're on a capture everybody's opinion. But it's just historically you got to look back at your track record and say what states are harder to pull than others. And that happens to be, it seems, one of those states.

Why is Wisconsin so hard? And by the way, Trump is working Wisconsin. That's where he was just last night in the garbage truck, in the garbage suit, praising Brett Favre, you know, all for, for good reason. But why is Wisconsin so hard to pull? Uh,

Uh, it's hard to know. We would have to do more research into it. But when we look at our poll results, then when we look afterwards, what we find is that the white male misrepresents their vote total. So in the past, they've underrepresented their interest in Trump. And so we monitor that group and see if they're voting more consistently this time around. But that's what we've seen in the past is

a couple of groups, particularly in the Midwest, they maybe give us answers that they think we want to hear as opposed to what they really think. And that can impact some of these poll results. And it's important that when we're trying to capture opinions, particularly in 2016 and a little bit in 2020. So if I asked you if you're a Republican-

Well, I don't think every Republican is the same these days. You have like the George Bush Republicans and now you have the Donald Trump Republicans. So it's important that what we're seeing in the polling is we can see who they voted for in the past. We asked them who they voted for. And we're hoping that gives us more consistent numbers that if they voted for Trump in the past, they'll stick with him this time or vice versa, as opposed and have the right representation of Republicans.

So we don't want, you know, 40 percent Republicans, but 30 percent are really more Dick Cheney, George Bush Republicans that are in line with never Trumpers. And so that's where the polling, I think, can get off where they have it looks right, but it's the type of people that they have in that sample that are off. And that's what we're looking at internally in Wisconsin. We're hoping to get a little tighter out there. You have to have follow up questions after a Republican like, how do you feel about the UFC?

How do you like McDonald's?

How do you feel about Diet Coke and Hershey's? Like whatever, Trump's little nuggets about Trump and see how they react. Okay, so that was Wisconsin, which I should tell the audience, RCP has Harris up 0.2, 538 has Harris up 0.8, and Emerson Poll and Lead October showed Trump up one. Okay, so now we're still talking blue wall, which one of which Trump would have to get if he does lose Nevada or any of those other states in the Sun Belt we discussed. Michigan.

Michigan RCP says Harris is up 0.5 or five 38 says Harris is up one Emerson poll late October showed Trump up one Michigan is super important and super weird. This cycle in terms of

I don't know. It just seems like with the Muslim vote and they seem to be warming up to Trump. And we had that mayor of Dearborn or near Dearborn endorsed Trump. And, you know, he was Muslim. And a lot of Muslims polled say they believe Trump will end the war in the Middle East faster than Harris would. And we had Charlie Kirk on yesterday saying there are a lot of Muslim men who frankly don't want to

vote for a woman. There's still, you know, a strain of sexism in certain areas of the country and certain religions, certainly. So what do you make of Michigan? So Michigan is probably Harris's strongest state, but probably a toss up.

And it's their strongest state because she won it by the most out of these swing states back in or Biden won by the most in 2020. So this is a state that she's going to try to carry. This is a state where Trump won in 2016 by less than a percentage point. So he's trying to win this state back. And he's shown that the state's willing to vote for him. They've also shown willing to vote for the Democrats.

I think last cycle's the midterms gubernatorial election was a bit of an outlier where Whitmer wins by over 10 points. I don't expect Michigan to be a 10 point state. I don't even in the Senate race. That was abortion.

this seems to be closer to a two to three point race. But again, I think Harris is slightly underperforming where Biden was in 2020, even in Michigan. So I don't think she's as high as that two point lead that he had. It could be at a half a point, a point, and it certainly could go over to Trump by a point or two. So it's all within that range of scores that we talked about at the beginning where

You know, you could have a poll at five points on one side and one point on the other. And the polls are all maybe within that margin of error if that candidate wins by, let's say, two points. And we'll obviously have to wait till maybe November 5th or after to find out what the final results are. Right. OK. And that leads me, my friend, to Pennsylvania. Pennsylvania RCP shows Trump up 0.8. Five thirty eight has Trump up 0.4. An Emerson poll in late October showed Trump up one point.

And there's now a Monmouth analysis out a poll from October 24th to October 28th, showing it tied, tied. This would be, it's only 824 Pennsylvania registered voters in here, not a huge amount and a 3.8 percentage point margin of error. And the headline out of this poll is Trump's prospects hinge on low propensity voters. Okay.

So before I get to that, because I do want to talk to you about, you know, the Trump's challenge of getting the guys up off of their couch to get them down to the, you know, the polling station where women tend to run and men tend to like, eh.

I don't know. And that's a challenge for him. Before we do that, let's just do to Pennsylvania on a more macro level. And these numbers, this has been the tightest state, it's been the most contested state. Each one will be devastated if they see it goes to the other, her especially, Kamala especially. But where do you think Pennsylvania is? What are you thinking about?

Yeah. So Pennsylvania to me is the keystone state of the election. And everybody's been watching it for a while. This was Biden's home state in a sense, Scranton. And it was one that he was able to wrestle back from Trump by about a point. And again, it seems as if Harris is running a little bit lower than where Biden was last time, particularly in minority groups.

where the vote isn't as strong. And that is a gender divide as well that we see there. But we do notice that those numbers are slightly under. And older voters, Biden did slightly better with those over 70 compared to what we're seeing with Harris right now. And so that's why we see that Pennsylvania is a toss up, slightly leaning towards Trump.

as her numbers are slightly underperforming where Biden's were. And I'm not sure where the bounce is going to come back from her. If you notice at that poll in the aggregate of those polling,

When's the last time Harris was leading in Pennsylvania in one of these polls? Generally, it seems to be tied or slightly towards Trump. So we'll see. Maybe there is this hidden female vote that the Democrats have discussed that might come out. And again, these races are close enough that if there's a two point vote, there's 160,000 people that vote.

are part of that hidden vote. But what we've seen over the last eight years is that Trump has the hidden vote. And we'll see if it reverses this cycle. But if not, Pennsylvania seems to be a pretty...

a pickup opportunity for Trump as well. Well, now's as good a time as any to discuss the weirdness of the polling in 2022. We expected the red wave. It didn't come. They had been obviously overestimating Republican support expected at the polls that year. And we were all shocked to see it did not materialize. We were used to them underestimating the Republicans, at least when Trump's around.

And in this case, in 2022, they overestimated it was post Dobbs. The electorate was pissed and women did turn out to the polls to make that clear in places like Michigan. The big thing, of course, was Trump was not on the ballot.

So he didn't really give the low propensity voters a lot of reason to get off the couch and go to the polling station. But it's not 2022 anymore. He's back. He's done the McDonald's. He's done the garbage truck. He's doing everything a candidate can do to create that warm, fuzzy feeling in the hearts of his voters. Like, I love the guy and I I must help him. So how do we reconcile polling errors of the past and

Where we don't overestimate the Trump vote now as a way of under of correcting the underestimation of Trump in 16 and 20. Like, you know, it's another way of asking, are the polls right? Yes. And so they'll be within the margin of.

I presume 95% of the time. But this is a historical thing that you've seen. Like President Obama in 08, he breaks the record for the most votes ever, 69 million votes he gets. And that record doesn't get broken until 2020. So it was a phenomenal campaign. And then what happened in 2010? He loses the Senate, loses the House.

And then 2012, he comes back and he's on the ticket. So I do agree that when you have the candidate on the ticket, that's when you're going to pull out that major vote. Now, maybe some pollsters overestimated that turnout in 22, but I would be careful not to expect that same turnout in 24. So the midterm elections, like in 2018, you don't see that.

that Trump turnout in the Democrats do really well. In fact, most of the seats that they're defending this year are those seats of 2018 because it's in that cycle. So they were able to win in that midterm election. This time, they don't necessarily have the wind at their back as much as they did in those midterms. Now it's a little bit more in their face. And we saw already in West Virginia, potentially in Montana,

Maybe in Ohio, maybe in other states, some of these Senate seats swinging back to the Republicans, which would be an indication that you do have a different turnout in 24 than we have in these midterm elections. And you could look at 2018 as a basis for that.

OK, so interesting, by the way, audience, don't we have she from Montana on the show tomorrow? So that'll be interesting shortly before the vote. All right. So back to that Pennsylvania poll in the Monmouth analysis that I said, they they conclude Harris does best among high propensity voters. Trump's path to victory relies on turning out enough low propensity voters, people who don't have.

a very consistent history of getting to the polls, be it in a midterm election, a special election, or even in a presidential election. I mean, I'm thinking if I'm looking at that, I'd rather be in the Harris camp. I'd much rather have to, you know, my whole base made up of people who never miss a vote. So how does this factor in?

Well, one, it's a presidential year, and that's going to be our highest turnout election out of any election that we hold. So midterm elections, you know, what do we have about 50, 55% turnout here? It should be 60, 60 something percent turnout. So you have your natural turnout models.

That's what's happening with the electorate is that it's not just high propensity, low propensity. The low propensity is your working class person who doesn't vote in these off-year elections, doesn't vote in municipals, doesn't vote, but they vote once every four, once every eight. In 2016, we saw people that hadn't voted in like 16 or 20 years and came back into the cycle just to vote for Trump. And that's that hidden Trump vote that

we continue to miss in both of those cycles. And the question that the Democrats now have is maybe there's a hidden Harris vote that we're missing in this cycle and that we're overestimating Trump. But based on what we've seen in the past, I'm not there.

If there's going to be a hidden vote, it's most likely going to be the Trump vote. However, just anecdotally, we've noticed there's a lot more like Trump enthusiasm, number of signs, number of people out there, as opposed to 2016, where there was more of a spiral of silence regarding a Trump supporter. Here we see that Trump supporters pretty loud and that we presume that they're going to be engaged in the surveys and the polls.

But there is still skepticism amongst Trump supporters to take these surveys and polls. And that's what might be leading to some of the under or overperformance by Trump compared to the poll numbers. We have dear friends in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, and they I know you can't go by lawn signs, but they're saying they've never seen so many that it's overwhelming. People are wearing it loud and proud. Spencer, I know you've got to run. What a pleasure. You're great. Thanks so much for being here.

Oh, Megan, thank you for having me. Have a great day. Yeah, you too. Don't you guys love Spencer? I love Spencer. He's so clear and he brings you through it in a way that you can really understand. I do want to point out two things I didn't get to with Spencer. I talked about that Monmouth poll in Pennsylvania, which shows them tied. Quinnipiac just dropped a poll conducted October 24 through 28, and it shows Trump up to 49%

to 42. Margin of error is 2.1, so it could be in there. They also showed the gender gap has widened. Men back Trump by a 20-point margin. Women back Harris by a 19-point margin. Trump going on all those male podcasts, you know, from Rogan to Theo Vaughn to our good friend Sean Ryan seems to have helped. That's my guess, because in October 9th, men backed Trump

plus 11. And he's almost doubled that. Now he's up at 20. Harris had 15, a 15 point advantage back then. Now she's gone up just four points, um, with the women. And then finally in the USA today, pollsters dropped a new poll on Michigan that had, um, the candidates tied. So a very different story than that CNN poll showing her up five, which again, Spencer points out could just be a margin of error situation. Um,

you know, it's, it's not consistent with any other, um, of the data that we're seeing. So very fascinating. We're not going to have to wait much longer, I think, to know the actual data, but, and nor are we going to have to wait much longer to hear from Stu Bregeer and Stephen L.

Joining me now, Stephen L. Miller. He's a contributing editor at The Spectator and host of the Versus Media podcast. He's also a must follow on X. You can find him at Red Steez. And Stu Bergeer. He's host of Stu Does America for The Blaze. Guys, welcome back. Great to see you. I don't know if you heard any of Spencer, but

Um, I, there's a little greater pep in my step after listening to him because Emerson polling is right down the middle. They call it like they see it. They're not, you know, they're not like a Trafalgar where they're trying to like bend over backwards to find it. And I like Trafalgar. I don't get me wrong. I'm not disparaging them, but he seems pretty bullish on Trump's chances in really seven out of the seven.

Michigan being the one that he says might be most likely to go blue, but not to count Michigan out either. I mean, Stu, I know you take a close look at this stuff for the blaze. What do you think? I think he's right on the money. You're right. Emerson is one of the best at this. And I think, you know, you're at a situation where, um,

We are it's a really close race. Everybody knows that. I think the momentum is toward Trump. And I think if if I were one of the had to be one of the candidates, I'd rather be Donald Trump in this race. That being said, it's really, really close. And I think Nate Silver's model for to give an example, has it something like thirty nine percent chance that either one of the candidates wins this.

All seven of these swing states, I think it's 24 percent chance for Donald Trump to win all seven and a 15 percent chance for Kamala Harris to win all seven. And if that happens, it's going to feel to all of us like it's a blowout, like we're going to have over 300 electoral votes. Everyone's going to be saying how this is a mandate. At the end of the day, though, it's a really close election. It really could go either way. It's Halloween and I'm scared.

What do you think? I mean, what I was saying to Spencer was just looking at the map right now, it looks like Arizona, Georgia and Nevada, sorry, Arizona, Arizona, Georgia and North Carolina are, are, I don't want to say Trump's, but are definitely leaning Trump. Those are three States in which I think he has a very solid chance of winning. And then I think Nevada so far looks amazing. Spencer said he thinks Nevada is,

could still go blue. It has a history of going blue. It's not like a red state. It's just that the early voting data seems better than expected for Republicans. But what do you think of that analysis, Reds D's? Because I think Trump could do this with just the Sunbelt, just those Sunbelt states and wouldn't even need to touch any of the Rust Belt, which I think he probably will anyway.

Yeah, I'm not a huge polling or election prognosticator. There's one detail I think people are really overlooking. And this isn't a conspiracy. This isn't mass voter fraud. This isn't stop the steal or anything. But in six of the states that Trump needs to win, if Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, Arizona, Nevada, North Carolina, all have Democrat governors with Democrat appointed secretary of states, Michigan's already said,

We're not going to have our results for two weeks. Pennsylvania doesn't even start counting mail-in ballots until Election Day. And so I'm kind of out here looking at – if you're out here saying that Donald Trump is a fascist and he's the next Hitler, are you guys really going to obey every election law and certify Hitler?

You saw Mark Elias, who is a Democrat powerhouse lawyer. He's also part of Kamala Harris's election team. He's the guy that led the charge to get Trump thrown off the ballot in places like Michigan and Colorado, where it almost succeeded. And you just saw –

how in one of these states, they basically said they're going to be allowed to count ballots even three days after the deadline, the legal deadline. And I think that this is something that is laying a blueprint where even if ballots come in postmarked that shouldn't be counted – we just saw what happened in Michigan with a Chinese national who cast a vote and he's being charged with a crime. But Michigan is sitting here going, his ballot has already been counted. Nothing we can do.

I don't think people are preparing themselves for the amount of shenanigans that are going to happen. And this is not a conspiracy. This is not Donald Trump screaming about voter fraud. And it's not, this is about, again, the rhetoric matching the actions. And if,

Donald Trump is Hitler, and if he's a fascist, do you really think that Whitmer, Shapiro, Evers in Wisconsin, Hobbs in Arizona are just going to go ahead and go, well, I guess we have to certify the election for Hitler? So I didn't mean to kind of throw you a curveball here, but all this talk about – Total buzzkill. I know. I'm not sitting here saying like all this talk about polling and stuff like it and Trump's close and he may eke out Michigan. I'm sitting here going –

This is why local elections are so important. This is why, you know, losing Arizona with Kerry Lake as the governorship in 2020 was so important because five or six of these swing states all have Democrat governors with Democrat appointed secretary of states. So if you guys think that this is all just going to be neat and tidy and, oh, election night, oh, there went Pennsylvania. Nope, there went Michigan for Trump. I think you guys need to buckle up because we're about

Still three months out from knowing who's actually going to win this election. It most likely will get kicked up to the Supreme Court. And now you understand why all of these stories about Alito and Thomas are coming out. Now we have another one from Jay Mayer who's out here. Alito belongs to some Catholic men's group and they're trying to make it sound like it's Opus Dei.

And so they're laying the ground. Good, because you can't get rid of the Supreme Court. I hope it does wind up in the Supreme Court. They can ignore them. For the first time in forever, we finally control that six to three and they can cry liberal tears when it goes up there because those justices will do the right thing. Sorry again for the buzzkill. They're not going to want it to land in the Supreme Court. It is a buzzkill. But Stu, I don't know. I'm I'm.

Pollyanna-ish on it, I guess. I actually think we might learn as soon as election night. And I think it could potentially be a blowout. Sadly, it could be a blowout either way. But I still think we actually might know on Tuesday night. Do you think I'm nuts? What do you think?

I think there's a I'm kind of with you in the idea that it is actually really possible. I mean, it's not crazy to see that, you know, if Trump has the normal polling error in his favor, there's a really good chance that we know, for example, if he wins Georgia, North Carolina and.

Pennsylvania early and he knows that we kind of can sense that by one or two points. You know, there's a good chance that he is one of the electoral college. And, you know, Stephen pointing out that all sorts of shenanigans happen afterwards. Who knows with that? But I think it's definitely possible if a polling error goes in Trump's favor. He's probably sweeps all seven of those. And if he does that,

You're going to see maybe not. We're not maybe completely sure. Like in 2016, we weren't completely sure. Still, some people calling for Hillary Clinton not to concede. But we pretty much knew. And I think that sort of thing is is possible. I will say, though, we knew we just couldn't believe that's the problem in 2016. It was like there's no effing way that just happened. What? Right. Then in 2020, it was a little bit more clear. But Trump.

You know, that that could happen. What happened in 2020 could happen this year where you go to bed thinking one candidate won and you wake up finding out another one has won because the mail in vote, which I think will be substantial, but not as substantial as it was in 2020 during the peak of covid.

So that's why I feel a little bit more rosy about the possibility of knowing on Tuesday night. Now, maybe that's just my history of covering lots of elections on Tuesday nights for Fox News, and we always knew. So I'm kind of trained to believe we could know. Things have changed, as we know. Okay, I have spent a lot of time suggesting Trump could win. It is also possible that Kamala Harris could win. And there is a question about whether the polls are...

are right at all, whether we should be listening to the polls at all. Here's Harry Enten over on CNN in Sat 2. So I went back and checked out whether or not a party outran the polls three presidential election cycles in a row in the key battleground states. It's never happened. It's never happened. Zero times, zero times since 1972. So if the polls are going to underestimate Donald Trump once again, that would be historically unprecedented. Now, maybe you want to make the argument that Donald Trump himself is historically unprecedented, but

But what normally happens is the pollsters catch on. Hey, we're underestimating. We're not taking into account some part of the electorate. They make adjustments. And I think that helps to explain why we have never seen that the same party has been underestimated three times in a row in presidential elections, at least over the last 52 years. If we went back to 2020, right, all the

polls, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Michigan, those three key Great Lake battleground states, they favored Trump by a wide margin. But there was this group of pollsters that actually had Trump out ahead. And indeed, Donald Trump's best polls in 2020 were eight points better than the poll averages in those states. So there was this idea, this universe, hey, maybe the averages are really underestimating Donald Trump. This time around, the question that I had was, are there still these polls that may indicate that the

averages are really underestimating Donald Trump. This time around, there's really not the evidence for it. The best polls for Trump actually only have him running about three points ahead. So I wouldn't be surprised if even this is indicating, hey, wait a minute, these polls that suggest that Trump will do better than the average are actually too good for Trump. And what do we see in 2022 in Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin? Well, it turns out that the average

poll in those states actually underestimated Democrats by four points. Because if it turns out that the polls underestimate Donald Trump or underestimated the Democrats, excuse me, like they did in 2022, what happens? Well, Kamala Harris wins a sweep because she wins all these Great Lake battleground states. She wins down in the southeast and she wins down in the southwest and she gets the 319 electoral votes.

How do you like that for a possible outcome, Steven? I think it's all Calvin ball at this point. I do agree with Stu that the race seems the momentum seems to favor Trump. There was a great post somebody had on Twitter that said in 2016, Trump was having fun. In 2020, Trump was not having fun. In 2024, Trump is having fun again.

And so I look at this and I go – again, I'm not a pollster. I'm not an election prognosticator. I would say what Stu said. If you wanted to be the two candidates right now, who would you rather be? And I think I would rather be Trump. And again, with North Carolina, Georgia, and then I was paying attention to Nevada earlier.

Some of these states here and now there's even talk that that Colorado was kind of leaning towards red. So if that happens, look out. I think the idea that like, yeah, that all seven of these states are going to go one direction, I think, is not likely. And beyond that, I can't give you much expert analysis.

All right. Stu and Steeze, stay with me. And after this break, we will get to Trump garbage. Kamala Harris's meltdown over Trump's comment on protecting women and Biden eating the feets of babies.

First of all, happy Halloween again to everybody just tuning in. And don't forget, we are live right here covering election night for you on youtube.com slash Megyn Kelly and on Sirius XM Triumph Channel 111 starting at eight. Tonight I will be going as hot garbage. That

I think you're really going to like it when I post it after the fact. I decided to do what all the young gals do, even though I'm not young anymore, and not just make it garbage, but hot garbage. That's what every woman seems to do. You could go as a burger. You have to be a hot burger. You could go as a cow. There was a picture in the New York Post yesterday of some woman who's going as a hot cow.

So I'm going as hot garbage, which actually is a thing. Okay. Anywho, um, garbage Trump did the right thing and leaned in. He wore the garbage vest. He got in a garbage truck. He held a quick mini presser from the garbage truck. Here's a little bit of that in Southmore.

I think the Democrats have done a very poor job. We're leading in every state. We're leading big. And I think that the comment made by really both of them, because there are really two of them, about being garbage, maybe 250 million people,

They shouldn't be talking. That's like deplorable for Hillary. This is deplorable for Hillary. And I think this is worse, actually. For Joe Biden to make that statement, it's really a disgrace. I love Puerto Rico, and Puerto Rico loves me. I don't know anything about a comedian. I don't know anything about the comedian. I don't know who he is. I've never seen him.

I heard he made a statement, but it was just a statement that he made. He's a comedian. What can I tell you? How do you like my garbage truck? This truck is in honor of Kamala and Joe Biden.

So first of all, one of the great things about Trump that goes under recognized is that he tells you exactly what he wants you to think. That's effective messaging. It's worse than Hillary's deplorables. It is worse than Hillary's deplorables. He wants that in your head. And the garbage thing, like this is, it's that bad, like over and over telling you how you should think.

think about it. Um, that's the genius of Trump and that picture right there of Trump in the garbage truck that reads Trump make America great again on the side, 2024 with the American flag flying large and blowing in the wind from where he is. It's another iconic photo, just like the one of him in McDonald's. It is another iconic photo. So then Trump goes and holds his rally in Wisconsin and he tells the story. This was this, this

This is just classic Trump of how this whole thing came about. The truck and the vest, which he is still wearing inside the rally arena while he tells the story. And I come into the arena and I say, where's my jacket? I want to get out of this thing. And they said it would be unbelievable if you could wear it on stage. And I said, no way.

I got 25,000 people standing outside. I got all these people here. There's no way I'm wearing it on stage. They said, oh, okay, sir. I said, get me my jacket. But if you did, you know, it actually makes you look thinner. I said, and they got me. I said, I want to wear it on stage. When they said I looked thinner, I said, in that case, I'll wear it on stage.

Classic, vintage, right on point. And then he adds the following about the difficulty in getting up into one of those huge garbage trucks, which would be hard for most people. And, you know, Trump's not exactly the slimmest man. And talked about how it was a little bit challenging for him. So I said, man, if I don't get up there, this is going to be very embarrassing.

These stupid people, they'll say he's cognitively and physically impaired. And I can't do that when I'm alongside of this great athlete. I got to get up to that. So so look, so the stair, the first day is like up here. I'm sick. So I had the adrenaline going and I made it. I made it. And then I gave a little news conference from the front of the you know, they ask their wise guy questions and everything.

And then we drove about two feet. I got out, got into the car. So good, Stu. I didn't know Hitler was so funny. I mean, that is a hilarious Nazi right there. It really, it really is. You know, I would say if I was in the meetings before they started scheduling this thing, the McDonald's thing, you're going to go on stage in your garbage outfit.

I think as a campaign advisor, I'd be like, no, dude, please don't. You're going to look like Dukakis with his head out of the tank. It's going to be terrible. And there's just something about unique, unique about Trump where he can pull these things off. I mean, this was endearing. He's a funny, endearing guy when he wants to be. And.

I think if you look back to 2016, Stephen kind of mentioned this earlier, if you go back to 2016, he was he was kind of this new guy and he was he was he was had his funny moments. He was still sort of an entertainer to most people. And then 2020 was sort of like, you know, it was a little darker, was more of an insult comic version of Trump at times.

Right now, he's just got the vibe right. This is smart campaigning, putting him on these podcasts. It's where he shines. He's able to be honest and kind of authentic. I mean, Kamala Harris is completely incapable of having moments like we just saw. She's not...

She can't do it. And because she can't do it, she can't go on Joe Rogan podcast for three hours. She can't have these moments that are connecting with people. And Trump, you know, look, it's still very close election. A lot of people hate his guts. He may very well lose, but it won't be because he's Hitler. It won't be because any of that stuff is true. He's a pretty entertaining guy. And that's why, you know, he was one of the most famous people in America before he started running for president.

You know, Stephen, we're getting to know Trump in a way many people have never seen him before. He's talking about his personal life more like on Joe Rogan, you know, his reaction to the White House, some of the behind the scenes things that we saw in, say, Tucker Carlson's documentary, Art of the Surge.

Even some of the behind the scenes video that they've released of him with his boys backstage of the one debate, you know, calling them sweetheart and honey, like his grown boy sweet. And then this, right? He's self-deprecating. He's making fun of his size. He's making fun of how hard it would be to get into a garbage truck like that, his vanity.

I think this is actually very effective. And to Stu's point about the Dukakis thing, Ian Sams, the spokesperson for the Kamala Harris campaign, like just a complete...

hack tweets out who would have dreamt that he'd have not one but two Dukakis moments in one campaign, putting out the pictures of the McDonald's picture and him in the truck, like completely not getting it. And in that one tweet, you look at you think I'm starting to get why they're doing so poorly. Like I I don't I don't know that Kamala Harris is all that well served by this team.

Ian Sams is the comms guy who famously put out the Juicy Smollett lynching tweet. And so that just so you know who the context of who that is. Yes, he is. What? You generally you. Oh, yeah. One hundred percent. You generally know how effective Trump's stunts are based on the reaction of the people who don't like him.

And this has been the case for years. And this took me back to 2016 when people didn't think he was going to win. It's like, how can we actually go for this? There was an interesting moment. You may not remember it, but Trump went to Pennsylvania and he stood in front of like a wall of garbage.

And you had several journalists and people in the media like clowning on him about the advance team. And they're like, who thought this was a good idea for Trump to go to this garbage plant or recycling plant or whatever it was and stand in front of this wall of garbage? And then he also did a thing where he put on the hard hat and they all kind of goofed and clowned on it and it worked and he won and he won that state.

And so I take things like this. They're funny and they are political stunts. But you take things like this and to kind of echo what Stu said, Kamala Harris could be doing this stuff. The whole McDonald's thing was both a, hey, I kind of want to go and do this. But it's also a thing to question if Kamala Harris ever worked at McDonald's, which nobody is saying she hasn't. There's just no evidence that she has.

She could have gone and done that, and this is to me kind of why this is effective is like what he said. Trump can go on Joe Rogan and just BS for three hours. Kamala won't do that for one reason or the other. Trump can go to McDonald's and work the fry. The fact that she let him get in front of that before her is mystifying to me, and so –

I looked at this thing from 2016 when, again, he's at this recycling plant in Pennsylvania. We'd never seen a Republican do that. We didn't see Mitt Romney stand in front of just a wall of recycled aluminum.

talk to voters. And that's kind of the whole effectiveness of what Trump did in 2016. We can go through the antics and we can go through the brashness and all of that, but Trump started talking to voters that the Republican Party hadn't been talking to for decades. And that's why he is effective at doing these kinds of things. We can laugh at the gaudiness of the orange vest, but that hits different for people. He's somebody who...

He's largely allowed to rise to power in the Republican Party because he's speaking to people that the Republican Party has ignored. That's right. I mean, honestly, one of my questions for Donald Trump at that first debate, I think it was at the first one back in 15, was how long have you been a Republican? Because Trump.

He wasn't. He was a Democrat, but Trump was just kind of more nonpartisan. He had his issues that he cared about and he understood. And he mentioned this on Rogan. Like you kind of got to run. You got to pick one. You can't run independent. It doesn't work out well. So he picked Republican. And instead of him falling on his face and the Republican Party squashing him, he

bent the Republican Party to his will. And it's now his party. And that's why he's getting such a different coalition. They're putting him over the top now. He just likes not everyone out of politicians. That's it. And no, no, no, no base feels more betrayed right or wrongly by their politicians than the Republican Party. And Trump just tapped into that. He just went up on stage and made fun of Marco Rubio and made fun of Rand Paul and made fun of Jeb Bush. And that's really all that the voting base wanted at that point.

Now, not everyone took so well to Trump's appearance last night in the garbage truck. I give you Nora O'Donnell, who seems to be on like, I don't know if she got some sort of maybe she was jealous of her co-host of that vice presidential debate, Margaret Brennan, for getting fired.

all of the criticism from anybody who was paying attention for that debate. Maybe she wanted to be in the news more for her bias because she seems to be on a string, like a streak of getting as hardcore leftist as possible in her last waning months in the anchor chair. Here she is last night on the CBS Evening News.

He landed in Green Bay just a short time ago and then pulled this campaign stunt, speaking to reporters from a garbage truck, proof that he and his supporters are giving no grace to a gaffe by President Biden, where he, in his explanation, inadvertently called Trump supporters garbage.

This, of course, was in response to that racist joke about floating garbage told at a Trump rally just last weekend. Vice President Harris is distancing herself from the negativity and trying to drive home her unifying message that if elected, she will represent all Americans. Oh, my God.

It's different hearing it. I saw it written in my packets. Stop going on CBS. It's that is amazing. That's really incredible. God, she had everything in there about like that would show the bias. That's like his campaign stunt.

He gave no grace to poor Biden who clarified. Meanwhile, here's Kamala Harris with her unifying message. Oh, and a joke was told, a racist joke at a Trump rally without attributing it to some comic nobody's heard of. Like who told the joke? Could have been Trump, right? Like everything's in there, Stu.

Yeah, it's so true. And it's like if you go back and you look at like the way they reacted after 2016 in the media, I think you get a real window into what's happening right now. In 2016, there was this idea that it's part of the hell of my life is to have to watch the mainstream media every single day and react to it.

And when you saw the reaction after 2016, there was this idea that maybe people would kind of wake up and say, well, maybe we are in a little bit of a bubble here. Maybe we don't recognize what's going on in the rest of the country. There was this sort of, you know, don't take Trump, literally take him seriously thing. And maybe we need to wake up a little bit and understand, like, what's the real motivation of irregular people in the center of the country?

And you thought that might be what they took from it, if they were being honest. But of course, they didn't go that direction. Instead, the lesson they really took out of that election was to say we should have never covered the Hillary email scandal.

Because the fact that we gave any opening at all to that, even though most of our coverage was to disprove it or say it wasn't a big deal. The fact that we alerted to anyone to that at all kind of puts the blame for this Trump thing a little bit on us. And next time we're not going to let that happen. We saw as we got to 2020 with the Joe Biden lap.

They didn't let it happen. Right. They shut it down. They didn't cover it. They banned people from tweeting it at the time. They did all the things they needed to do because they look at this as almost like a legacy. Right. I can't be seen as someone who didn't do my part properly.

My part was to make sure every single word I said pointed people to the right direction, led those stupid horses to that glorious water. And they tried it. They've been trying it. I think the American people have woken up. But you have to think if you go back.

a decent amount of time before the Internet, all this stuff probably would have worked on the American people. Thankfully, there's at least a way for us to push back and get the truth. And I just don't think stuff like Trump is Hitler is going to be effective in this environment. I hope I'm right. But, you know, of course, you know, it's amazing, though, because like this one's not even Trump is Hitler. It's just like the bias in every phrase that she offered was readily apparent. And trust me, I have sat in front of these cameras on network news and I know exactly how it works.

At that level, they have a writer who takes the first crack at the script. Then you would have a producer and on CBS Evening News, you'd have an executive producer look over the script before it went into the prompter. And you would have the anchor look at the script before she read it to make sure she's comfortable with what she's about to say. So at least that level of review happened before Nora O'Donnell got out there and said it was a campaign stunt.

It was he gave no grace to poor President Biden, who's clarified the remarks. And he was only responding to that racist joke that was told at the Trump MSG rally by whom I'll leave it to you to figure out could have been the big man himself. And oh, by the way, here's Kamala Harris with her unifying message. It's

dripping with bias. It's obvious enough for a five-year-old to see. And they saw it too. They just don't care. They know she's not winning. She might be tied, but she's not winning. And they truly are in a panic. They will do whatever they can now to stop her. And that was reminding me of Stephen's opening point. I want to give you a little bit more. Lawrence O'Donnell will not be outdone.

on the excuse making for Joe Biden. And here was his take on how Joe Biden didn't really say that half of the American people, those supporting Trump, are garbage, sought aid.

Do so, they had to refuse to listen to the actual sentence Joe Biden spoke. They had to refuse to look at the written words of that sentence. They had to refuse to understand what English grammar. They had to refuse to understand what a singular possessive is. They had to refuse to understand what

apostrophe S means. They had to refuse to remember what they learned in elementary school about the English language. The terrible campaign reporters and commentators who are covering this campaign, it's not all of them, just the terrible ones, are completely exploitable by Donald Trump, and Donald Trump knows it, which is why Donald Trump, the stupidest candidate ever to run for president, climbed into a garbage truck today. Oh,

God. Possessive apostrophe gate. They don't understand apostrophes. That's what went wrong there, Stephen.

Trump went and did like the stunt in the vest in the garbage truck. Kamala Harris needs to come out wearing an apostrophe costume for Halloween. Like watching the American media try to will an imaginary apostrophe into existence is a top five thing. And I've been doing this a while. This is a top five thing I've ever seen.

And they know how bad this was because you can see the gears grinding in these people about how do we explain this one? And it's kind of like Sideshow Bob doing the die bar die tattoo on his chest. He's like, no, this is the bar the. No, there's a comma there. You just didn't see it.

It's absolutely incredible. And like I said, you can gauge the level of panic based on how ridiculous their reaction is. And that has a lot to do with. Well, hold that thought. OK, let me then let me give you another one. You don't like that one. You don't like Lawrence O'Donnell. Why don't we try Kelly O'Donnell over on NBC? Yeah, that's her theory. Stop 15. If you look at.

about a minute's worth of the remarks from President Biden when he was speaking to Latino groups last night, that context appears more clear.

Also, it's important to know that the president always has that battle against stuttering, and that seemed to be apparent in this as well. We're left in a position now, as anyone who looks at this, to make their own assessment. His battle is his brain is applesauce. Well, here's what's interesting. It kind of irritates me because I know some people who have stutter, and I've seen them stutter. And when they're trying to say something and the stutter gets in the way,

They then say the thing again. They clarify if the stutter actually makes them say something which they didn't mean to say, which is, by the way, not how the stutter works. Then they clarify it the very next sentence. That's not what he did. He went on and started attacking the guy from a different point of view. He didn't say, oh, I didn't mean to say that half of Trump supporters or that all of Trump supporters are garbage. He didn't do that. He just kept going and

There was, and by the way, even when he quote clarified, he said, oh, this is what I meant to say, you know, after the fact in a tweet that he sent out. This is what he didn't say. You misunderstood me because of my stutter. Yeah, this is, this also comes after a week after he said we have to lock Trump up. And Joe Biden is the head of the Justice Department of the executive branch of the United States government.

And so a thing there is Lawrence O'Donnell is who he is. Kelly O'Donnell is the president and the acting head of the White House Correspondents Association. So she's in charge of all like the White House press briefing people and whatever. She's the person who kind of oversees that whole organization. And so Stu said something that I've been on for a while, that when Kamala was installed into this nomination, they all view this as a 2016 redo.

We have to get this one right. So he's right. We're not going to cover emails. We're not going to cover Doug Emhoff punching a woman in the face in public. We're not going to cover anything that could be the story that leads to Donald Trump being back in the White House because the one journalist who does that.

It becomes a pariah. They become a leper in their own industry. No book deals, no TV hits, no promotions, no shows, no anything. And that is – once you realize that, that's where all of this comes from. And as far as CBS –

I hear everyone screaming about bias, and I'm someone who does it all the time. Republicans need to stop going on CBS. They need to make a unified message that says we are not going to engage with this network anymore. This is not a news network. When Stephen Colbert is the flagship personality of CBS News, and this is a guy who hosts a propaganda show for the Democratic Party, they're all just kind of following suite here. And so

I guess eventually you have to do something about this. And CBS has been pretty much the most egregious actor. But Norah O'Donnell is the person who hit the mute button on J.D. Vance during a presidential debate. Either you guys will learn your lesson or you can just keep engaging in the same kind of behavior and keep screaming about bias. Eventually you have to do something about this.

I mean, I have to say, I kind of respect, I kind of respect the people who are on the left who are like, he shouldn't have taken it back. He should have just stuck with it. They are garbage. Like that would be more honest, you know, they won't. Right. But I mean, the here's that also happened on CNN. Here's Mark Preston. And then I'll show you Charlemagne watch 13.

I'm of the mindset that if you say it, you might as well just embrace it. And I do think that that's a problem for Democrats. If he said, listen, yeah, I do mean all those racist supporters of Donald Trump. Yeah, I do think that they're terrible. I think that that...

People would look at the Democratic Party a little bit different, that the Democratic Party in general doesn't look like they are strong enough and they will always back off of things. And I think that when Joe Biden backs off of saying what he really believes, I don't think that's a good look.

I love this guy, Mark Preston. I appreciate him just saying it as as he actually feels it's still their garbage. We all understood that's what Joe Biden meant. Republicans are garbage and F him for backing down. It makes the whole party look weak. I mean, it's like like Jerry Maguire. Honesty. Thank you. Right. That's how I felt watching that. Yes, we all know that that's actually what he meant. Thank you for just saying it.

Yeah, I agree. I mean, come out and say it. I mean, this is explicitly what their closing argument is anyway, right? If I mean, if Trump is Hitler and half the country is going to vote for Trump, I mean, were there good people voting for Hitler? Like, obviously.

Obviously, they're all terrible, right? I mean, that is explicit in their argument about what the country is made up of. And, you know, Hillary Clinton obviously took a, you know, took a political beating for her deplorables comment. But what Trump said is true. It wasn't nearly as bad as this. If you go back and listen to the context of Hillary Clinton, she didn't say all Trump supporters were deplorable. She just said half deplorable.

Half of Trump supporters were in the basket of deplorable. I mean, it's still completely wrong and a terrible thing to say about, in this case, a quarter of the country. But it's better than saying half of them are garbage. That's where Biden is. And no apostrophe is going to get him out of it.

This is the point Charlemagne was making. Charlemagne's really gone over to the TDS world. He was on the show six months ago and he was kind of like, I wouldn't off middle road. He was definitely not a Trump fan, but he didn't sound like this hardcore anti-Trump, but boy, he's there now. Take a listen.

I don't understand why he's walking that back because, I mean, based off the examples he gave, like, if you are a person who supports those examples that he gave, you are garbage. Maybe I got to hear it again. I thought he was being very specific. I thought he was talking about people who agree with, you know, Tony. That's what he meant, but he didn't get there specifically. He was trying to, like, it was a little, not nuanced, but, like, any gray area with Biden, they're going to try and grab it. Everything with Biden is gray area. Everything.

That's his point too, right? Like why wouldn't you embrace it given the overall messaging? All right. Let me give you one other thing. Kamala Harris was asked about it. We played her remarks yesterday. She said, I strongly disagree that we should be judging people based on who they vote for. So good. That was the only possible answer. And then she got asked again, my, my audience needs to brace itself. And here's how she answered. Sought 12.

Do you sympathize with any voters who do feel offended by or insulted by the garbage coming out?

I am running for president of the United States. I will be traveling to three states today to do what I have been doing throughout, which is talking with the American people about the fact that, first of all, I get it in terms of the concerns they have about challenges like the price of groceries. Second, my highest priority is to address that and to lift them up around their ambitions, their aspirations and their dreams. There's the line. There's the line.

No. Ambitions, aspirations line. You know what? Every time. If there's like a, if there are like three college students out there looking for a costume tonight, you could go as that. I'm the ambitions, I'm the aspirations and I'm the dreams. You could have like a little brother following you with it. I'm the,

This is all she's running on, just these words, words that have no actual meaning in terms of policy and what she's actually going to do when she gets in there. What a pivot, right? He says, do you empathize with any of the people who are feeling offended at being called garbage? And she says, what I can tell you is I understand they have, right, I come from a middle class family and they have ambitions and aspirations and dreams, Stephen.

Yeah, I still maintain Kamala Harris, the person, doesn't actually exist. This is a performance by an actress. She pantomimes. She doesn't make eye contact. She's always just kind of doing the same gestures for whatever she does. This is a well-orchestrated circus, and it's a stage show. And in the end, it might work. They're really trying to Obama-like.

eyes this woman by having her hang out, spend the final two weeks on the campaign with Hollywood celebrities who are the last people in this country who don't have to worry about inflation or dreams or aspirations.

And so – and this is a big thing going back to like Joe Rogan, which is – and Megan, next time I'm on the show, I am going to demand you come to me and we're going to limit this to like 15 minutes. So I'm just going to let you know this. But it is this sense of entitlement and this is what I don't get about this campaign is just kind of how it missteps every kind of step of the way and how tone deaf it is.

And so she's in a position where she can't distance herself from her boss because her boss decided to put her name right up there next to his with a little dash in there. And so when he goes off and he does this and she has to spend three days explaining it, her people are just kind of like, can we just dig a hole in the woods in Delaware and get rid of this guy by now?

And so she's doing this juggling act and unfortunately she is not capable of pulling off the rhetorical tricks of somebody like Barack Obama.

She's like, it's so dumb. Now, this is a no-brainer. Yes, I do empathize with them. I can see how that would be really insulting. And again, let me make clear, it's not how I feel. And I think Joe Biden tried to clarify what he was saying, but let me be perfectly clear on how I feel. That's it. You don't have to, when someone says something that incendiary, not only do you disavow it, you clobber them over the head with a club.

and then continue disavowing. There's absolutely nothing to be gained from leaving any ambiguity about just how grossed out you are about the comments, but she's scared. As always, she's scared, and she's supposed to take on Xi Jinping. All right, so the leftist media and their supporters and her supporters are

They're also concerned about the Joe Biden comment. It's bad. Trump's not wrong. It is worse than deplorables. Enter the Lincoln Project. And the Lincoln Project, which is this group of never-Trumper former Republicans who are just the most vicious anti-Trumpers there are now,

tries to change the narrative to Trump said it too. Trump said it too. And I saw somebody adding me on X yesterday with this as a, somebody from the Washington examiner, like Trump said, the whole country is garbage. Hello. He didn't.

This is a different controversy, but what Trump said, Venezuela is sending us their prisoners and gang members like we're a garbage can, like the United States is their garbage can. Not the same. Hello. The Lincoln Project refers to a different issue and puts together the following little bit. Sat nine.

And it's not her. It's the people that surround her. They're scum. They're scum. And they want to take down our country. They are absolute garbage.

This is from a September rally. So they're pushing that clip out like Trump called the people around Kamala Harris scum. And by the way, before I get to what he actually said, here's Lawrence O'Donnell again, making the most of it. Lawrence O'Donnell, who's like very, very clear that we need to make sure that we study the person's actual statement and we not get it wrong. Here he is responding to clips. Did Donald Trump mean that everyone who voted for Kamala Harris to be our vice president four years ago is garbage?

That's 80 million people. Or did Donald Trump mean the Harris campaign staff? That's hundreds of people. Or the vice president's White House staff? Dozens of people. Or maybe the vice president's family? Did he mean her husband, Doug Emhoff? Donald Trump has never apologized for saying they are absolute garbage.

Okay. Here is the actual Trump quote from that September rally. Great patriots have been indicted by Fonny and her boyfriend, and it's a disgrace. Hillary Clinton wouldn't acknowledge...

the election. All of these senators like shifty-shif, but if we do it, it's a serious, serious crime. These people are sick. We got to get them the hell out of there. That was a fraud. 818,000 jobs. That's a fraud. If Comrade Kamala Harris gets four more years, you will be living

A full blown banana republic ruled by an anarchy and a tyranny. You're going to have something. And it's not her. It's the people that surround her. They're scum. They're scum. And they want to take down our country. They are absolute garbage. There you go. So he is talking about Fannie Willis, Adam Schiff, Hillary Clinton, people who have tried to deny his election.

impeach him and throw him in prison. He named names, the people around her. He named the names. He never said all of her supporters, her voters or anything close to what Joe Biden said that night, just two nights ago still. But this is I mean, what are you going to do? It's the Lincoln Project. However, this is desperation. That's what we're watching here.

I think it is desperation. And I would know, too, to Lawrence O'Donnell, if he was talking about Doug Emhoff, if you knock up your nanny and slap women in public, then, yeah, yeah, kind of you are garbage. You are scum. So I have no problem with that summary. Yeah. And I think like they're going to try to make this out to be if they lose, they will say, oh, I can't believe that gaffe by Joe Biden at the end. Sure, that might be a factor here. But the bigger gaffe by Joe Biden was the four years of his presidency. Yeah.

The reason why this is close is because they've failed on every major issue that matters to people. You know, you want to talk about a gaffe. Go back and look at the people in Afghanistan hanging off the tires of a plane as it goes down the runway. That's a gaffe. A gaffe is 19 percent inflation. A gaffe is people not being able to afford groceries. A gaffe is, you know, millions of people streaming across the border at

will and committing crimes on the American people. Those are the things that are making this close enough that Joe Biden being a moron and blurting out what he's been thinking in private all the time in public, that's what makes that a problem. If they were up by eight or 10 points, this wouldn't be an issue. They failed forever. And that's the real problem here. No, there's no spin control and no apostrophe that can save them on this.

It's so true, isn't it? It's like you watch a football game and one side is up, you know, 34 to three and they're winning and you can see they're going to win. And when the other side gets close to scoring its second field goal, the winning team will try to stop it. We'll put out the defense. We'll say you're not going to score that point on us. But when that winning team does win, it's

It's because they ran... They played the game properly from the beginning. It's because they ran up the score properly from the beginning. And right now, what we're seeing with, you know, Team Trump trying to fight back against some of this nonsense is they don't want another field goal, right? They want to keep her score low so they will fight her disinformation. But I think if and when she loses, it's going to be because they allowed all those other points to get to 34 before this last...

week of nits trying to get like a few points on this and a few points on that. Like this race is already won or lost. That's my feeling. It's won or lost right now before the next five days. We're just waiting to find out what the final score is and the voters get to tell us. But these little attempts to like, ha ha, or ho ho, even the Joe Biden garbage remark, I think it's all net net

And we're fighting for these little three pointers, but the huge points have already been scored or not scored. I do want to say something. If you're a kid sitting in an elementary classroom, the last thing you want to hear your teacher say is enter the Lincoln project. So along those lines, yeah.

I think Megan has a point there. I do think that this is just trying to just generate outrage over the most littlest things. But the interesting thing about the Puerto Rican thing and they spent two weeks on Detroit. Trump basically said Detroit's a hellhole and then Kamala comes out and the media comes out and says, how dare you say that?

And this is kind of the whole virtue of the media and the left, which is they run Detroit into the ground. It's the first American city to declare bankruptcy. It's been single party rule for 70 years. Everybody knows Detroit is kind of a freaking hellhole. But you pointing it out is more offensive than actually turning Detroit, which was a great city, a great iconic city for American motors and architecture and everything. You're not allowed to point out

what they actually did to Detroit. It's just offensive that you're observing what they did to Detroit. And this is kind of the whole dynamic of the American media, which is the Republican sees, Republicans pounce, and all of this stuff. So you're not allowed to

point out that the Clinton Foundation basically bankrupted the island of Puerto Rico. You're not allowed to point out that, you know, Puerto Rico's electrical grid is something that dates back to the 1800s. It's just offensive when you say it. And so, again, this is the whole dynamic that they're working off of. And it's one that they're going to continue to do here for the next, you know, five or six days. As I said, with polling,

they're kind of already signaling what's going to happen here. So like I said, buckle up for election night. This is not something that I'm going to go against the grain with you guys here and say, I don't think that this is something we're going to know about on election night. And like I said, I just, I warn that, you know, five or six of these states that Trump needs are all have Democrat governors with Democrat secretary of states. Yeah, it definitely could matter. All right, let's take a quick break and we'll come back and we got to talk about Biden eating the feet of babies.

It's a thing.

I want to start this segment with a story we talked about earlier this week. Tucker Carlson, Ben Shapiro and others, although those two publicly took to X to tell The New York Times to F off for collaborating with the disgusting, vile hate group Media Matters to try to censor their shows. They were trying to gin up support or comment for a story, a hit piece that The Times published.

was doing on these conservative commentators and really on YouTube for airing their, quote, election misinformation. Well, The New York Times is out with their story today. And to YouTube's credit, it is standing firm that these alleged instances of disinformation did not violate their policies. So good for you, YouTube. But look, this is only going to get louder and more problematic. Ben posted on X that The Washington Post is working on their own story now, too.

And there's so much uncertainty about what may happen in this political and cultural landscape in 2024, five that we're watching it, you know, right now, as you know, you can get the Megyn Kelly show free. You can listen to us on Sirius XM. It's free via podcast. It's, you know, you can go to YouTube, you watch some ads and you can watch.

I know it's, it's Halloween and I know they're babies and they're adorable. We all feel that way, but when it's somebody else's baby, you shouldn't put your mouth on it. It's kind of, it's

It's kind of a hard and fast rule. It is hard and fast. Do you heard it here first? Here is first where he comes out and he, quote, eats a baby dressed up as a chicken at a White House event. Three babies. Somebody out of the Jaws music.

It was happening there. They were playing the Jaws music out as he ate the baby. The baby doesn't look upset, we should say for the record. I was going to ask about that. No, the baby looks fine. I don't know why somebody put the Jaws music on as Biden walked over to the baby and pretended to eat its leg. Well, actually did put the leg, the chicken leg, I guess, in his mouth. And then there was this one where he ate, again, a baby's toes at the same event. Let's look at this. This is just video.

Stand by. Here he goes. She's holding the baby up for him. He grabs the naked foot. He puts the foot in his mouth. He puts the toes in his mouth repeatedly. That's three times in his mouth. The mother doesn't seem upset, but she probably walks away with her baby. I'm sorry, but it is a rule, Stephen. You don't put other people's babies in your mouth.

He's just in DTOF mode at this point. I get people are freaking out about this, but people have to remember the adrenochrome is the only thing keeping him alive at this point. And so sometimes there's not a baby behind closed doors that is readily available. You're fading so fast that you just have to just make it look

and steal the essence in front of everybody. So, yeah, I mean, the funniest thing about this, I mean, this is who Joe Biden has always been. It's just kind of like, like, what are you doing, man? And especially around like kids and swearing in ceremonies. We've always kind of seen this, but I guess, I,

And I mean, this is another thing. We all remember like Trump putting the candy bar on top of the Minions head and that was all funny. And then here's Joe Biden like treating a baby like it's a, you know, a chicken wing, you know, or whatever. And it's just like, yeah, at this even at this point, you can tell Democrats are like, yeah, we're we're ready to be we're ready to be done with this.

look, I mean, baby's foot. Like I said, yeah, I'm sorry. When you get, you get the adrenal chrome where you can. I,

What I understood was like, especially when they've got like a onesie on and they've got their like adorable thighs, everybody wants to squeeze a baby's thighs. But normally no man would ever do such a thing. Normally another mom would come over and say like, oh, can I? And you'd be like, sure. Or you'd be like, oh, he's not feeling well if he didn't want it. But no one ever, and I've had three children ever put my baby's feet in his mouth. That's certainly not the president of the...

Yeah, I will. To be fair to Biden, I think he may have been a little confused there. He may have thought he was trying out for is it cake on Netflix? And he thought maybe if he bit into the baby would actually be made of cake. So we don't know for sure. His favorite show.

Yeah. I think there's a, there's this thing too, where it's like, if the, if the good looking guy in the office comes in and says, your dress is nice, you're like, Oh, thank you. What a nice compliment. But if the creepy guy comes in, you're like calling HR. There's a little bit of that here too. Like,

You know, if a normal grandpa comes up to your kid, does something adorable. Oh, gosh. Oh, yeah, that's so cute. But Joe Biden... It puts your child's foot in his mouth? No, I don't... Don't do that. Grandpa. Now we know why he thinks he only has six grandkids instead of seven. We know where the seventh one went. I...

I really think it's just further evidence that we've lost Biden. That's our current president, FYI. He doesn't know what he's doing. He has absolutely no filter for his behavior or his mouth. I am on Team Harris in her pleas that he should stay underground. If you wanted her to win, of course, that's what she should want and what he should do. Unless he's doing it on purpose.

I say let him let him go. Let him get out there by time with the babies, time with the microphone. Just say what's on your mind, sir. You're the sitting president United States. You can do it, guys. Thank you. Thank you, Megan.

Don't eat any babies. Stay safe out there tonight. Yep. Maybe try a baby or two. Consider my, I think somebody should go like, the wife should be the hot garbage and the husband should be the garbage man. It's not too late to get one of those vests like Trump had. All sorts of ideas available to you. Okay, so I want to tell the audience that tomorrow we're going to have Nicole Shanahan here. Thanks for listening to The Megyn Kelly Show. No BS, no agenda, and no fear.
