Shownotes Transcript

Get ready to hear the truth about America on a show that's not immune to the facts with your host, Dan Bongino. We did it, didn't we? Forgive me, man. I'm a little emotional today. So this is one of the first times in a long time I'm coming on this podcast sincerely without a game plan about exactly what to say. I mean, believe me, we put together a good show for you today, but it's a little bit overwhelming.

So much to talk about, so many people to thank. I'm just, I think like a lot of you woke up this morning, felt like the country you knew is finally back. Folks, I got a crazy show for you today. After last night, I'm on about three hours sleep, but I'm telling you this from the bottom of my sometimes broken heart with absolute sincerity.

I don't feel tired at all. And I'm like the most, Justin, I'm not the biggest wuss with sleep. How often do I complain? Folks, you have no idea how much I complain about sleep, which is not, there's a beam pre-roll coming up, but I promise there's nothing to do with it at all. I gripe and bitch and moan about sleep all the time. I slept three hours like many of you. And I got to tell you, I feel like I could run a freaking marathon and I don't even have the need for it. I have never felt this. It's almost like some spiritual energy, man. Am I crazy?

Of course, he says yes. He's got his MAGA hat on, signed by Donald Trump. I never see this guy wearing hats ever. He's rocking a MAGA hat. Justin and Em are up late last night. Let me get to it.

I know, I saw them come in. They set off the alarm in my house, dropping off equipment at like 1.30. Paula's like, what's that? Are they breaking in? I'm like, breaking in? She thought like the FBI was like raiding our house or something. Hey, a few decades ago, private citizens used to be largely that, private. Well, what changed? Well, the internet changed.

We are so back to all the haters, to all the liberals, to all the progressives, to all the commies, to all the people who called us fascists and Nazis and racists and deplorables and garbage and garbage bags and smellies and rednecks and hayseeds and flyover countries. Cue motherfuckers today.

And I don't give a shit what you think about it. I'm sorry. I know shouting fraud is bad, but I don't give a shit. I'm going to tell you something. You motherfuckers brought this on yourselves. It didn't have to be this way. We could have had a nice country where Democrats and Republicans love the country. We agree that the country's wonderful. We agree we got to defend it. And maybe the Democrats think, oh,

Okay, we should maybe hike a few more taxes and do this. And maybe that's not what happened. We now have one party that's like, you people are garbage, you're scum, you're serial Nazi murderers, you're savage animal garbage bag people. You all suck. And you know what happened? The garbage people, deplorable, hayseed, redneck, fascist, Nazi, whatever you called us. You know what I call those people? I call them patriots and heroes.

They collectively gave the biggest double-barreled middle finger ever to the establishment swamp class trying to lord over us and said, we're not kneeling today. You're the one now. You're the one who's going to have to look in the mirror and say, man, we really fucked up. And yes, you did because we are so, so back. I told you more. More. I got a couple thank yous that are really important.

Number one to the Bongino Army. Folks, this is not a sense of faux humility, please. I hate that. There is simply no way this show would have had the influence it had over this election without you. There's none. We went into the election, the number one most powerful digital show ever.

On the planet because of you. The facts back it up, man. We were the number one live stream every day. Millions of people were watching our show across multiple platforms. The clips went viral everywhere. The Facebook page blew up. That was because of you.

You can say, oh, yeah, it was because of your, yeah, fine. But you could have picked anyone's content. I'm not the only guy out there doing good conservative content. You got a ton of them. You picked this show. The Bongino Army is now, we're in charge now. We are the most powerful force in this Republican movement right now. And that is because of you. You did this. You did this. And you deserve the biggest thank you of all.

I met a bunch of you last night. I bet a bunch of the McGroin crew speak Anita, but I got some gifts. I got a lobster. It's real, by the way. This is a real lobster. I know it looks like a stuffed animal. It's actually real. Oh, it's got the tag on it. Okay, sorry. No, this is actually a real lobster. Oh, there's another tag. I got that from the McGroins. And also, you know the new studio? The new studio was a Burger King converted, so they got me a Burger King ashtray. So love you guys. Thank you for last night. Last night, we tore up the internet.

with 500,000 concurrent live viewers. It was bad ass. NBC at the end of the night squeaked a victory out over us, but we were kicking ass and taking names. And you know, I've asked the question often, ladies and gentlemen, you know the question I'm about to ask? Yes, sir, Guy. How'd you know that? I didn't even tell you. Was it bad enough? And the answer, put it up in the chat.

Yes, it was. It was bad enough. And we finally, finally said it's not bad enough anymore. Now it only gets better. Now it only gets better. So I want you to know I made an executive decision here after Guy's input. He says I don't listen to him, but I do once in a while.

He's like, Dan, you need to put this in the beginning of the show, not at the end. I was going to end with this, but this is a perfect time to begin with it. This is probably the best way to start. Guy was correct. I just want you to listen to this. Check this out.

I know. You're going to get that on tape now. Play it over and over again. I can see it already. It's going to become a freaking sound clip. Jim's going to put it on the radio. Shit. Just play it at Trump, then you win, okay? We overcame obstacles that nobody thought possible, and it is now clear that we've achieved the most incredible political thing. Look what happened. Is this crazy? But it's a political victory that...

Our country has never seen before nothing like this. I want to thank the American people for the extraordinary honor of being elected your 47th president and your 45th president. And every citizen, I will fight for you, for your family and your future. Every single day, I will be fighting for you and with every breath.

In my body, I will not rest until we have delivered the strong, safe and prosperous America that our children deserve and that you deserve. This will truly be the golden age of America. That's what we have. We did it, man. We did something really special last night. I'm going to tell you, living this with you all, all 500000 plus of you last night.

And my crew and my wife, Paula, who I have to thank. She did an amazing, amazing job with my production team and living through it with Jim and Evita and Michael, who's been a new addition, and Justin, who's been around, and Guy, who's been around, and all the McGroins and the people at the event, family and friends. Folks, it was a magic night, man.

I got to tell you, I couldn't go to sleep. I tried. I couldn't go to sleep. It was 240 in the morning. I couldn't go to sleep. I didn't know what to do. I thought, do I just pull an all-nighter like it was me back in my old days at Queens College? I didn't know what to do. And then I woke up to this. My friend Lisa Booth, who's amazing. She's such a wonderful person, a Republican. You've probably seen her on Fox. Great conservative voice.

She was at a Trump victory party and she comes out into the hallway and folks get ready, get the Kleenex out. This just spontaneously broke out. I want to play about 30 seconds of this. Get the Kleenex folks. I woke up to this in the morning and I couldn't hold it together. Check this out. I encourage you to listen to that whole thing, man. It was hard to take this morning.

And, you know, listen, I get it. What am I getting all choked up about? You probably have people out there, ah, turn in your man card. I don't really give a shit, man. I'm sorry. I just, man, I love this place so much. And the last three and three quarters of years, almost four years, we got our asses kicked, man. I mean, I did everything I could with the parlor and rumble and all this stuff, and they kept coming after me and coming after you and everything.

censoring us and sticking masks on our face and injections in our shoulders and threatening our jobs and threatening our churches and the FBI throwing people in jail, investigating people. It was just the mounds of red tape on our back. The government threatening us, you know, a senile president, the joker for a vice president. I mean, it was that I didn't I felt like it was never going to stop.

And it feels like just after last night, man, like just the weight of the world's been lifted off our shoulders. And I know, you know, maybe the tactical thing to say is right now, hey, man, our work isn't over. Yeah, I get all that. I understand. But I think you in the chat agree with me today because you guys matter more than anything. Can we just take a day and enjoy this?

I promise you we'll get back to work tomorrow and the next day. You know I've got a thousand things on my plate that we've got to get done. We haven't sworn in yet. Yes, I know. There's the kitchen sink straight. They're going to throw everything at us. I get it. But just for today, after almost four years of bullshit, can we all just sit back and thank the Lord Almighty God, the most important thank you of all, for saving this country from the horrors that would have lied ahead. Thank you.

I just, I don't know how to tell you how I feel. I can't believe I slept three hours and I don't, I never felt, it's almost like something spiritual that happened last night. And folks, the victory was so resounding. What did I say to you? If you create a mandate, if you create a mandate, an election victory so big, they're not going to have any media vehicle to stop this thing. You may have done that last night.

I say may because the left is so crazy. Who knows what they're going to do? But watching the media just totally deflated. Oh, at least we'll say we got the popular. They got nothing. You gave them nothing. You took from them last night. Everything, everything, nearly every up in the air Senate race we expected to win. We won. There are Senate races we didn't expect to win. We may win. There were Senate races I thought we were going to lose that look like we won them.

You took everything from them last night. Everything. And they tried to take everything from you. I want to thank Elon Musk, too. I don't know Elon. Elon doesn't know me. He doesn't need to know me. I'm telling you right now, if Elon Musk didn't buy Twitter, you might have had a different outcome. I want to thank someone else, too. Someone who doesn't get nearly the recognition he deserves. The CEO of Rumble, my friend Chris Pavlovsky. When everybody banned Donald Trump on platforms...

You know what Chris said over at Rumble? He said, fuck you, motherfuckers. I'm putting Donald Trump on Rumble. And we did when it wasn't fashionable. Chris did that. That took a lot of balls. Go back and look. No one was platforming Donald Trump because they were all scumbags. Chris did it. Chris stood up during COVID and let people talk about masks and vaccines. And they were right. There would have been no video home without him. Thank you, brother.

Rumble set the standard last night. Rumble was the home between War Room and Charlie Kirk and Steven Crowder and our show. Millions of people said double-barreled middle finger to the mainstream media, and we found a new home last night. Folks, you're also so unbelievably generous, I don't even know what to say.

The Donald Trump baseball we auctioned off last night. Gee, what did you think it was going to raise? I thought five. What did I tell you guys? $2,000 I thought it would raise. Donald Trump signed the ball. Gee told Mike $20,000.

A Michael Jabi bid $50,000 for the Donald Trump baseball. Samaritan's Purse, Franklin Graham, you're about to get a check for $50,000 thanks to the generosity of Michael Jabi. And I want to give a shout out to a friend, John Brunner, who was bidding up the price as well. You're a real patriot too. Samaritan's Purse, you got a big check coming your way.

And I want to raise some more money for charity. So, folks, I know you're feeling really good today. And I know I asked you one thing when I said vote early. And a lot of people questioned me. Some of you did. You know it. You said, Dan, don't vote early. I said, vote early. More. More. More. And why did I say it? Now I'm going to tell you why. Because political insiders who are very smart. I'm talking about winners, not losers.

told me there's going to be a flood on election day regardless, and they won't be able to know the numbers on election day. If you vote early, it's going to fuck up their entire math, and it did. They had no idea what to do on election day because they couldn't figure out how many they needed because they couldn't calculate how many people had voted early versus how many were going to show up on election day because we never vote early. That's why I said that. Your brother will never steer you wrong.

I told you that was a winning strategy. I hope you believe me now. Receipts matter. Victories, talk, and bullshit walks. All those people on Twitter, fake conservatives, were attacking me. Oh my gosh, don't tell me. You want to go back and reevaluate now? You think I'm stupid? More. More. So for you, you know we run a store. Our proceeds go to charity.

The McGroins got a sneak peek at this last night at the event, but one of our listeners submitted an idea for a shirt going forward. You want to buy it, it's up to you. But it looks like this. More, more. Four more years, kids.

Ad is up for sale right now. Store.Bongino.com. Again, our proceeds go to charity. I promise it's not some money-making endeavor for me, but you guys built a computer lab for kids with this stuff. So there you go. Thank you to our listeners. Store.Bongino.com. More, more, all caps.

Man, Justin's right again. Justin's like, how many people do you think we're going to have today? I said, I have 200. He goes, quarter million. I go, nah. Quarter million. This show's only 20 minutes in. I haven't even got to the first commercial break yet. More.

I want to play this for you last night, folks. This happened on CNN last night where the meltdown was just something to behold. CNN and MSNBC realizing they're on the wrong side of American history was absolutely glorious. There's this guy at CNN I really like, Scott Jennings. I don't know him. He went on CNN last night and gave probably the best one-minute and 15-second explanation about what just happened. You need to hear every word of this. Check this out. This is a mandate.

He's won the national popular vote for the first time since, for a Republican, for the first time since 2004. This is a big deal. This isn't backing into the office. This is a mandate to do what you said you were going to do, get the economy working again for regular working-class Americans, fix immigration, try to get crime under control, try to reduce the chaos in the world. This is a mandate from the American people to do that. I think I'm interpreting the results tonight

as the revenge of just a regular old working class American, the anonymous American who has been crushed, insulted, condescended to. They're not garbage. They're not Nazis. They're just regular people who get up and go to work every day and are trying to make a better life for their kids. And they feel like they have been told to just shut up when they have complained about the things that are hurting them in their own lives.

I also feel like this election, as we sit here and pour over this tonight, is something of an indictment of the political information complex. I mean, we've been sitting around here for the last couple of weeks, and the story that was portrayed was not true. I told you you did something special last night. There are a bunch of people out there who really hate your guts. I'm sorry to tell you that.

Are they going to engage in a moment of self-reflection today about the strategy of calling Americans garbage and deplorables, fascists and Nazis? The short answer, folks, I doubt it. But you know what?

As I've told you over and over, there's only one way to defeat collectivists whose only goal is hierarchy. They don't care about hypocrisy. They care about hierarchy. We are in charge and you are underneath us. That's how they've subjugated us for the last four years. The only way to defeat them is to remove the one thing they need to make your lives miserable. And you know what that is? Power. And you took their power yesterday. You took everything from them yesterday.

And now they're going to spend days and weeks and months until Trump swears in in January. Hopefully we can get to that point. We'll talk about that tomorrow. I'm confident. I feel good. I'm not going to be a downer on this. But they're going to sit there on these TV channels and try to explain to America why more than half the country told them to fuck off. You won last night, man. You won big. And you woke up to a different country today. I got texts from everyone. I got a text from the...

Comcast guy. I mean, I can't even tell you how many people texted me last night. The sprinkler guy. American flags. We are so back. So back. I'm going to show you in a second what the Harris campaign looked like last night. I'm going to argue now. Jim, would you agree? The worst, as we said, the worst candidate they've run since Mondale?

Producer Jim's still here. Why is he? I have no idea. He actually put the show together today because I went home last night. I just saw it on a cloud. Hey, many Americans are tired and frustrated by a stalling economy, inflation, endless wars, and the relentless assault on our values. Thankfully, there's companies like Patriot Mobile that believe in America and our rights. I'm proud to partner with Patriot Mobile. They're on the front lines fighting for our rights, the sanctity of life, and our military and first responder heroes.

The parallel economy is here. Look at this. Top charts yesterday. Rumble.com.

Number three, download that app, make it number one. Show this mainstream media, anti-conservative bias media and all of these people that we are in charge now. And you will have more of what you saw last night. Kamala Harris didn't have more. More. More.

More. I think more is going to be our thing going forward. Because whenever you think there's more, like, Dan, the election's over. No, no, there's more. No, no, there's more to be done. We're going to celebrate today, but I guarantee you tomorrow I'll be talking about the midterms. Because that's just who I am. More.

Always more. More, more, more. Everything in this show is about more. Just when you think you won, win more. When you think you won more, won more-er. When you think you won more, won more-iest. Make up words. I don't care. More.

War is all about more. We are now going to pile on because I want more of this. Kamala Harris didn't even have the guts to come out last night and address her crew of supporters in Washington, D.C. She sent out a surrogate to tell everyone, hey, basically beat it. Kamala Harris, just like a coward, just beat feet and went back over to what? The Naval Observatory and just sit there and sat there and hid the entire night. How embarrassing. Watch this. We still have votes to count.

We still have states that have not been called yet. We will continue overnight to fight to make sure that every vote is counted, that every voice has spoken. So you won't hear from the vice president tonight. I mean, really? Kamala Harris doesn't concede? Now, listen, you don't want to talk. You don't want to talk. Whatever. I don't really give a shit. But you understand these people came out there.

We did an event last night. Listen, I felt really good about it. Obviously, I told you that. But there was no guarantee anyone was going to win. We could have lost. You think I would have walked out in the middle of the show? Hey, sorry, guys. Show's over. F this. Everybody go home. You're the vice president of the United States, man. Have some balls.

You don't have to go out there and give some big, long speech, but you don't concede. This thing is over. I get it. A lot of you in the chat may say they're going to try stuff. All right, we'll talk about that tomorrow. Folks, they can try whatever they want at this point. The numbers are overwhelming. I've told you over and over. Voter fraud is very real. There's entire files on it.

It is not easy, however. You have to vote for people who won't vote themselves. You need a person to generate a ballot. The numbers are overwhelming. You completely swamp the system. There is simply no math. When liberal networks are calling the race, they're not going to uncall it because someone goes, hey, look, we found 60,000 ballots in a well somewhere. It's not going to happen. You beat them.

Take the W tonight and watch the recriminations. They are already doing what I told you was going to happen.

They were already starting to do this guy did it. That guy did it. This guy did it. That guy did it. Listen to this segment from NBC where they're already blaming Joe Biden, like I said, for not getting out of the race early. This is going to be just glorious to watch. Have fun with this over the next few weeks. Check this out. Jen, has the conversation begun yet about Joe Biden and about the decision to ask him to step aside?

It will begin. It will begin depending on the outcome. And obviously, there hasn't been a race called yet. If this is not a Harris win, that will certainly be part of the discussion. She's run a campaign over the course of 107 days. That is not something we've seen in history. And there'll be lots of questions about exactly that, the timing and the impact of that.

Chuck was bringing up the history. I mean, in terms of vice presidents trying to win the presidency with a unpopular president, he said it's bordering on politically impossible. And this gets

Ladies and gentlemen, enjoy it. Enjoy it. These are the same losers who told you your president 45 at the time was some Russian stooge. These are the same people who accused you of being a bunch of dumbass flyover country morons, even though you and your families built this place and feed everyone. These are the same people shitting on our military. These are the same people who called you deplorables garbage. How many times?

times we got to say this. Liberals think you're bad people with ideas. We think liberals are people with bad ideas. It's not the same thing. It's not the same thing. And now you enjoy this. You enjoy this victory. When bad things happen to bad people, that's a good day for you. And now they don't know what to do.

Watch them eat each other alive. You did something special last night. There were three things we focused on on this show. I'm going to get to in a little bit. Vote early. We could not stop talking about it. And look, it worked. The other thing we focused on, I dedicated my radio show exclusively to the U.S. Senate. And we won it. And the other thing I begged you to do was to show up no matter what state you were in, red, blue, or purple.

Because we needed a popular vote mandate. Because now they have no vehicle. Oh, well, at least we won the, but yo, at least nothing. We took everything from you. You won nothing. Now you guys have to look at yourselves and watch the finger pointing. The same thing happened after the Reagan Bush era when they didn't know what to do when they were put out in the political wilderness and they had to run centrist again. You're going to see that happen if they're smart, which they're not. Eric Daughtry tweet.

You are witnessing right now the greatest comeback in American political history, folks. Impeached, charged and convicted by his political opponents on bullshit charges. Nearly killed twice. Accused of being Hitler and everything in between. And now the 47th president of the United States. Thanks to you, the Bongino Army that came through in the clutch. More. Always more. Never enough. Always more.

I'm going to take a quick break. I'm going to get back to these media clips. Folks, you guys done watching the media meltdown? I'm not. I'm not. I want you to watch CNN that cannot believe independent voters picked freedom over communism. Why you can't believe it, I don't know. How have I not lost my voice already, by the way? I was talking for like eight hours yesterday. Time for you to be awake, not woke. Hey, listen, last night, if you were at the event...

John from Blackout Coffee was there. He loves the Bongino Army. He said that once I told the Bongino Army to go buy the cinnamon French toast coffee, which is amazing, it shot up to their number one flavor. Folks, support the companies that support this show.

You want to call me a Nazi and a fascist, I'm going to tell you to go F-Chump. And I'm going to watch it when you melt down and you realize how stupid of a strategy this was. Here's CNN and Jake Tapper left stunned by how independents are flipping the way

of the GOP under Donald Trump. That last part's important. Under Donald Trump. Watch this. Independent voters. They make up 31% of the electorate. That is a slightly larger share than what they made up four years ago. Trump is winning them by 11 points in these early exit poll results. 54% to 30%.

Jake, four years ago, Joe Biden won independent voters in Georgia when he won the state by nine points. So we've seen a swing of 20 points towards Trump in terms of the margin from nine point advantage four years ago with independence for Biden to now an 11 point advantage with independence

for Trump in Georgia, Jake. - Wow, David Chayen and Dana, that is really significant. We see some incremental changes here and there when it comes to young voters, she's doing slightly better. Non-college whites, he's doing slightly better, but that independent swing.

It's wild. It's a huge swing. And I just want to underscore what David said. It is a bigger percentage of the vote share. Last time around, it was 28 percent independence. I made up 28 percent of the Georgia vote. And now it is 31 excuse me, 30 percent. And excuse me. Yeah, no, I was right. Thirty one percent. And it is a total three.

It's a complete flip. Donald Trump is doing so much better with independents than Kamala Harris.

Folks, if you were watching, were you guys watching our stream last night? Listen, I so deeply appreciate you being there. The team did an amazing job. They had put this together for months. I had had a couple shots of tequila. My brother, I think, texted me and was like, hey, man, the show was a whole lot funnier after that double shot of 1942, whatever. Whatevs, man. I was having a blast.

The reason we were able on our show to make calls a whole lot earlier is one, you know, corporate media, they were just like, they had their heads up their asses. They're like, oh my gosh, we don't want the left wingers. We were getting information through Jim, producer Jim, from trusted sources that were telling us,

This thing was over. I said it so many times last night. If you guys played a drinking game, every time I told you Kamala Harris was at a runway, you've drunk, you would have been in the hospital. You would add alcohol poisoning. There was no runway. She needed at about nine 30 at night to pull ahead with at least one demographic in a swing state, a strong demographic for Democrats, women, suburban voters, black voters, Hispanic voters. None of that happened anywhere.

anywhere in any swing state. We were getting numbers out of like Arizona Hispanics at nine o'clock. That's how I knew it was over. That's why I told you. We said we would go to 1130, went to like 1145. I told you as I got off the air, folks, this thing is over. There is no runway for her. There was nowhere to go. Here's Josh Crashour.

Here's the story of the election night from Fox's voter analysis. White voters, 53-43. Trump was 55-43. Trump in 2020. Okay. But look at black voters. 81-15 Harris was 91-8 Biden. Hold this. Keep that up there. What did I tell you months ago, Jim? Remember? And a bunch of people attacked us?

Did we not say they'd get about 15% of black vote? You remember the guy, you're crazy, you say that every time. Who's crazy now? Who's crazy now? Hispanic voters. 56-40 Harris was 63-35 Biden in 2020. She had no runway, folks. She had no runway. Donald Trump's greatest gift to the Republican Party is going to be altering the demographics of our party forever.

Here's Ryan Gdurski. Trump won Star County, Texas, the most Hispanic county in America, by 16 points. The last time Star County, Texas voted Republican, what does that say? Does that say 1992? He says no, it says 1892. Shit, man, that's a long time ago. Not even Jim was born yet. That 1892.

Folks, they were out of runway. I think we brought this talking point up last night early. They were out of runway. Look at Ted Cruz's performance in Texas. Texas Senate race, Ted Cruz won Latino voters by six points. In his last race, he lost it by 29. That's a slight 35-point swing. Just a little bit. Just a little bit.

demographic destiny moment. He just said it. This whole demographic destiny replacement theory thing is turning out to be the biggest big tactical mistake they have ever made in their lives. You think legal immigrants who are Hispanic in this country, you think they want illegal immigration? My wife is one of them. She's sitting there saying, what the hell did I go through this whole process for? You get to come in here for free. Are we at 284,000?

Holy Moses. 284,000 a day after? I can't believe everybody's up. Really? You guys are. I knew I'd be here, but 285,000. God bless you all for coming back.

I hate to do this, but there are a couple of people I really dislike on Twitter. So I think we should embarrass them. Are you okay with this? I know we probably, I feel like we got, we got to do it. I'm really sorry, but yeah, I'm going to get to Trump on a popular bonus segment. Can you throw up Preet Bharara? I really can't stand this guy. Um,

he was supposed to be an independent prosecutor for the government and he turned into a hack and a goofball. And he's a big, obviously Kamala Harris supporter. He said on November 4th, who will have the most egg on their face? And some jerk wad responded. Oh, here's a bunch of people. Fox news, Charlie Kirk, Megan Kelly. He doesn't even get my name right. Joe Bongino. Oh, that's my brother. Douchebag. I'm Dan Bongino. Ah, I guess Brandon from Brooklyn. Uh,

I guess the only one with egg on their face and their nuts and your back and your chest and everywhere else is you D-bags, not us. Maybe you should have shut your mouth till after the election. A lot of people texted me a couple hours before the results came in. You know my friend Tron and others, and I didn't answer them. And I think they thought I was being rude. You know why I didn't answer? Because I don't count my chickens before they hatch. I told you don't talk about a red wave until the red wave happened. And you saw it last night.

You don't talk about that shit till after it's over or you wind up on my show like Brandon from Brooklyn who we now made famous. Leon Musk. Is that Elon's cousin? Can this guy even spell? Leon Musk. That's Elon's cousin. His long lost cousin. It's his stepbrother. You ever see a movie Stepbrothers with Will Ferrell? There you go. Leon and Elon.

Here's another one that D-bag Anthony Scaramucci, who lasted about 11 minutes in the White House. Remember Scaramucci? The Mooch? Who was my nickname? The Mooch. Harris will win November 3rd. Yeah, good call there, Mooch. You're an investor, aren't you? You do some investing. Maybe I'm on the wrong side. I'm not sure I'd exactly invest in your thing. I'm going to get back to the Trump popular vote thing. Don't let me let that go.

But I would be remiss if I did not thank someone here also in the beginning of the show. And I want you all in the chat because this is going to go down and be memorialized in the chat to send a thank you to. Ladies and gentlemen, Scott Pressler in Pennsylvania. I'm going to tell you something right now. Nobody did more than this guy to win this election. People did as much, but no one did more. This guy gave everything, everything. Scott Pressler, everything.

lived in Pennsylvania and probably burned through 25 sets of tires getting people registered. He put this tweet up this morning and I thought, this guy deserves a special shout out on my show. And candidly, if you were in conservative media and you're not thanking this guy today, shame on you. He said, President Trump received more votes in Butler County, Pennsylvania, where he took a bullet for us than in 2020. Scott Pressler.

Guys, listen, I'm not forgiving orders on this show. I'm not a general in this army. I'm just a soldier like you with a microphone. His ex account is at Scott with two T's, Pressler with one S, P-R-E-S-L-E-R. It's an order. Anita, put it out as an official. Everyone needs to follow this guy. You can't be part of the Bongino Army. This guy deserves it. You know, guys like us with the radio shows and the podcasts, we get a lot of accolades and stuff. And believe me, I appreciate it. And the Bongino Army did a lot. But this guy,

Pennsylvania, this guy almost single-handedly registered probably in the hundreds of thousands of people. Thank you to Scott Pressler. Jim, can we book him on the show next week? The radio show? I just want to talk about, I just want to thank him. Can we book him for the next election? I think Scott's just begun, folks. I think he's just begun. Folks, the popular mandate.

I told you this was important. You cannot give the media anything. They're going to make stuff up. Don't think for a second I'm telling you, oh, they're going to self-reflect and change everything.

There's a 90% probability they get even crazier in the next few weeks. There is. They will do something nuts. I guarantee it. There'll be like a preemptive impeachment, the 14th Amendment. We'll talk about that tomorrow, okay? Please enjoy yourself. You deserve it. You deserve it. But Donald Trump said something last night that's really important.

Folks, winning that popular vote mattered because now 49 percent of the country, maybe less, has to look at the other 51 they called Nazis and say, holy shit, how did we get that so wrong? Check this out. Also have won the popular vote. That was great. Thank you. USA! USA!

Thank you very much. Winning the popular vote was very nice, very nice, I will tell you. It's a great feeling of love. We have a great feeling of love in this very large room with unbelievable people standing by my side. These people have been incredible. They made the journey with me and we're going to make you very happy. We're going to make you very proud of your vote.

I hope that you're going to be looking back someday and say that was one of the truly important moments of my life when I voted for this group of people beyond the president, this group of great people. Now, folks, a sane, rational actor, not the left. I said sane and rational. They would say.

He won in 2016 but lost the popular vote. We fleeced it from him in 2020, put him in jail, locked him up. He was shot. We've civilly done everything we can to bankrupt him. None of this stuff worked. And he actually gets, he actually wins the popular vote again. You would think a sane person would be like, maybe it's time for us to put the mirror in front of our face and go, man, we really suck.

But again, showing you I don't think these people have the capacity for it.

Here is CNN, where already they're starting with the, was this like a racist, the racist race? No, your candidate just sucked. She just sucked. Check this out. The math is that she's running behind. That's 53% for the president. And once again, the vice president. So there'll be a lot of conversations about blue collar workers. Is it sexism? Is it racism? Is it because she didn't break with Biden on cost of living issues? This is going to be the conversation if this map continues.

They are, every excuse in the book is going to come out, folks. Now you're thinking to yourself, there's no way they're going to go back to like the Russia thing, right? It did not take them five minutes. And Moscow Maddow, Russia Rachel Maddow, is there a person, guys, seriously, is there a person, she may not be a top three talking head because she's not around as much anymore.

Has there been a person in the media humiliated more than Rachel Maddow? Remember her with the income taxes thing? Big breaking news story on the air. They found out Donald Trump pays his income taxes and donates money to charity. You remember that? People forgot about that. Her embedding her entire career inside the Russia hoax, like freaking Luke Skywalker. And what was that thing they cut open? The Tauntaun or something? She did it.

There's no one been more humiliated than her. Here's MSNBC last night bringing up a new Russia hoax. Now you got to hear this one. This is a gem. Check this out. America and our traditional allies is likely going to end. The whole five eyes thing is likely going to end. If you've got America switching sides in the Ukraine, Russia war to instead support Russia.

or to become neutral, which means would mean in this case to support the aggressor, to support Russia. If you've got ongoing secret communications eaten out of government between the Republican nominee and the person who funded his campaign and led his ground game. Right. Both of whom are communicating with the Russian government without reporting those that information to the U.S. government. And on top of that, you've got reporting from The New York Times that they're considering once there is a second Trump administration, if it happens to stop.

performing background checks before giving people security clearance, meaning giving classified information to anyone. That's supposedly at the instigation of a Trump campaign official who was born in Moscow. Folks, you know, I probably should be laughing because they're still in charge. And I don't know what to do. These people are so insane.

You really like it's padded room time. Like, at what point do you say to yourself, like, times are we going to get kicked into Jimmy here? But people, you've done, there's nothing more to do.

You've shot him. You've locked him up. You've civilly sued him. You've created probably upwards of five or six serious hoaxes. It's probably 20 more, but I mean, like, really incredibly damaging hoaxes that damage international relations. And you still got your asses kicked. I mean, at what point does Moscow Maddow go, holy shit, this is embarrassing. Like, I have parents. They...

Imagine being her parent. I'm serious. Who's your kid? Rachel Maddick. Russia Rache? What are you saying? No, no, the other one. Aren't you embarrassed? I mean, a little bit. I guess it does, man. Justin says it helps when you sell your soul. I hope she got the gold coins for it, man.

Because this is really, at this point, embarrassing. At what point do you just say, we lost? We lost. Let's go down and get a group together of actual Democrat voters and say, hey, man, we screwed this thing up. How can we do better? They can't do it. It is not in their DNA. Again, today's the day to celebrate, okay? You deserve it.

Tomorrow, here's what I'm going to start discussing a little bit. It's not downer stuff. It's not. There's two paths going forward for the Democrats. We'll call them the mandate strategy and the kitchen sink strategy.

The mandate strategy is, hey, man, we got our asses kicked. There's going to be some Democrats doing this. I promise you it's not going to be a lot, but there are going to be some because they're donors and they want to win. They're going to say we lost. It's time to move on. Enough with the fascist bullshit. We're going to move on and we're going to start anchoring ourselves in policy. I know because it happened before with the Democrat Leadership Council after Reagan, Reagan, Bush, when they were put out in the wilderness.

That's probably going to be a small minority of the party. The kitchen sink strategy, which we'll start getting tomorrow, is something we have to keep our eyes on the next few days. You're going to enjoy today. That's an order. You're going to enjoy today no matter what. They may throw everything at us. We're better prepared this time, but the 14th Amendment...

We'll see what Jamie Raskin, that lunatic member of Congress from Maryland who was talking about, you know, not letting Trump take office and stuff. We'll see what they do, but we'll get into that over the next few days. So everyone just kind of please enjoy today. Put a big smile on your face.

Have a drink, non-alcoholic, alcoholic, as long as you're not driving or taking care of kids. You enjoy yourself. I want you to go into the weekend and think to yourself that the country you knew you had was still there. You just had to pull it out.

You did it. You went out there and did something. Talk is bullshit. If it doesn't motivate action, it is freaking worthless. I can give all the speeches in the world. If they don't get people to go out and fill in a bubble in an election, then we lost. And last night, we didn't. We won. I had another mission, though. There were two really important ones for me. The third one was the mandate, but tactical missions.

I was driving you guys crazy, and I'm sorry. And I hope now in the chat you understand about voting early. Do you understand now in the chat why I was doing what I was doing? Folks, when you run for office and lose, you learn a lot, and you make a lot of really good contacts. And there were people that assured me that they were not expecting a massive turnout in the early vote. And when they did,

What wound up happening is the calculation they had made for election day, even if you built in scamming and cheating or whatever, the calculation got so messed up, they did not have enough time. I was assured this by people I promised you and I both would trust. We did it. But there are some races right now. My second mission, sorry, I didn't mean to get off on a tangent, but vote early was mission one. Mission two was the U.S. Senate.

Why was Mission 2 the U.S. Senate? Because, folks...

Clarence Thomas and Sam Alito may retire. And also, forget about the Supreme Court. There are going to be a ton of federal judgeships open. And we have lost the judiciary for years to liberal lunatics. You want Donald Trump appointing people? Yeah, we do. He's not going to appoint anyone without the Senate. That was our mission on the radio show. Jim was hustling every day. Bernie Moreno, Tim Sheehy twice, Ted Cruz twice. We were not losing the Senate. And we won.

Right now, we have 52. The Cinco Dos. I know that's not how you say 52. That's how I say it in my... We got the Cinco Dos. And here's the good thing. Tim Sheehy won in Montana. Congratulations. West Virginia was an absolute blowout. That was to be expected. Bernie Moreno, big congrats in Ohio. So we've got 52 now. By my measure, that's a majority.

And, of course, you've got J.D. Vance, who would be the tiebreaker, even if we lose two, which you will with Lisa Murkowski and Susan Collins. But here's the good news. Sam Brown in Nevada, another guy we had on, could pull that out. Still open yet. It's not done yet. Dave McCormick in Pennsylvania is looking amazing. That looks like a likely but not definitive 53. McCormick in Pennsylvania, we had on the show. Thank you, Producer Jim. Amazing campaign.

May have defeated Bob Casey, who's a legacy. That would be 53%. We get Brown, that's 54%. Eric Hovde in Wisconsin is down by a little bit, could still pull it out. That could be 55%. Mike Rogers in Michigan, who we did not have on. He ran a different kind of more centrist campaign. But in Michigan, probably fit the environment. Could be 56%.

I think 54, 54 is a reasonable place to go. I think Brown's going to pull it out. And I think McCormick looks great. 54 and we hold the house. Ladies and gentlemen, we got two years to rock and roll. Folks, I'm going to leave you today with this clip. The left-wing media thought it was an effective strategy to kick us all in the teeth, to put their boots on our necks, to engage in lawfare and censorship, thinking we weren't going to revolt against socialism and collectivism and tyranny and authoritarianism.

I want you all in the left-wing media to know that all those independents and all those other voters that traditionally had voted Democrat that flipped over to our side, you did this. You incentivized this lawfare and this weaponization of government. And in the greatest strategic tactical backfire I've ever seen, it was your targeting of Donald Trump that martyred him. And now your own media people are starting to recognize that you may have created this.

Watch this. Is it possible these cases actually helped him win this election? Oh, listen, we're in Florida. The governor here, Ron DeSantis, said it best that every time Donald Trump got indicted, his poll numbers went up. So without question, the cases absolutely helped him not only to get over the line, but I think also expanded, you know, some of the people that supported him. I mean, so many people, Diane, I heard it myself, you know, just walking around Madison Square Garden saying,

a couple weeks ago and listening, just listening to the supporters that were there. And so many were commenting about the cases, saying they thought it was unfair, thought, you know, that it was all rigged. The greatest strategic, tactical, political backfire in American history. Folks, I'm getting some reports from some people that Kamala Harris may concede today. She should have conceded last night. It's disgraceful she didn't. She got blown out. She got destroyed. We'll see what happens.

I want to thank you again, Bongino Army. You made my life, everyone's life in this country so much better. You did what we asked you to do. You did it. You brought out your friends. You showed up. You brought 10 people. And you fought, fought, fought. I'll see you guys back here tomorrow at 11. God bless America.
