Hi, Stu. Hi. Hi. Let's have a very organic conversation. We shouldn't script this at all? No, let's not do that. Let's talk from our hearts. Today's show was the greatest show of shows. It was tremendous. I love the show. And that's why you should listen to the show. You know, my favorite part was...

Avi was hysterical. It was great. And how about that Scott Perry? But the whole show is great. So you don't want to miss it, am I right? You are 100% accurate. And here it comes in 60 seconds. The time for playing to the left's games, it's over. One of the things that means is that whenever possible, we need to be seeking out companies that are behind our values and moving away from the ones that don't.

You know, it's honestly, it's like when you raise the square to evil and you just say, in the name of Jesus Christ, depart. It's just a dismissal. You have the power. And the same thing. We have to stop worrying about these people. They're about to be dismissed. Not rounded up. You're dismissed. We don't, we're not going there anymore.

So just dismiss them by joining people who support your values and the cause of the Constitution of the United States. Patriot Mobile is one of those companies. The major carriers are working against us. So get the same great service, the exact same coverage, but at half the cost and with a company that is fighting for us in our local communities.

You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program. I have to tell you, I watched him last night. I mean, he is on it.

No, I was told he's exhausted, Glenn. That's what I was told. Reliable sources like Kamala Harris told me he's exhausted. This is a tough job. He can't do this job. As if we didn't just witness you make excuses for a guy for four years who actually was in that situation. Yeah. Um, he is not, he is, he's sharper than ever. Uh,

And I don't say that because I see him backstage. I see him, you know, in conferences and he's sharper than ever. Trust me. And he's on stage going...

You can see it. This speech he gave last night was so focused. He even, honestly, there were times he was reading the teleprompter and I'm like, is he reading that off the teleprompter? He's I've never said that. He's usually on teleprompter like, and another thing we'll do. And then he'll go off and he'll meander for a while. And then he'll come back to the teleprompter. He was fantastic last night. And big vision, optimistic, optimistic,

With the people. I mean, totally right where people are right now. He was closing well. Game changing stuff. If he can get in and do this stuff, game changing. And Rogan today. Right. So that's a big one. Good time to be on your game. I've often said that I thought the best time Donald Trump has ever, the best performance he's ever had campaigning was in the few weeks following the Access Hollywood tape.

Because like, I think that shook him and he was, there was a moment of like, oh my gosh, we're going to lose this thing badly. And he just buttoned up and he was rock solid for several weeks. And like, he has his moments all the time. He's, you know, he does, he has his strengths, obviously. But you know, he can, as you point out, kind of go off script and do his stuff.

He's doing really well because they put him in a position, and he's decided to take a position, where he's going in and doing these podcast-type interviews. And it's just, it fits him really well. I mean, like, there's another world where just, if Donald Trump doesn't decide he ever wants to be president of the United States, he's just a big podcast host. Yeah.

That's an absolute thing that could have happened in this world. Coming off of The Apprentice, he's a big real estate developer. I would highly recommend that if he would lose. I would highly recommend that. Just don't do it at this time period, please. Or this country. You could do it at some other. But, I mean, he was finally...

Someone saying what the problems are, but not just saying the problems. Here's how we're going to fix it. You know, when you listen to this speech last night from him where he's talking about, I think he's maybe even talking about no income tax.

Yeah. Now, as a person who has a mug and has been selling it for a couple of years, repeal the 16th Amendment. Yes. I am a huge fan of that particular part of that policy. Yeah. We should totally get rid of the income tax. Now, you know. And it's almost, I mean, I think it's the right time because he's talking about tariffs in a different way. He's talking about tariffs. You build your cars outside of the United States. Okay. Yeah.

We're going to put a tariff on it to keep cars that are made here in the United States cheaper. We have to rebuild. This is the only time I think I've ever started to agree with tariffs. We must rebuild our infrastructure. We have to have manufacturing here in America. You know, people are under this illusion that, oh, well, we did it before, you know, World War II. When America sets their mind to it, they can do anything.

What did we contribute to World War II? Manufacturing. We made the planes and the tanks and the Jeeps and everything else. We made the trucks that brought the whole world into Germany. Okay. That was our biggest contribution. We lost what? 500,000 people?

Russia lost 20 million soldiers. We had the least on the table far as flesh and bone. We were important, don't get me wrong, and everything those guys did was obviously. However, our biggest contribution was being able to turn manufacturing on and just produce a war machine. We had nothing in 1938. Nothing.

In 39 and 40, we started to get serious because we're like, uh, we're in trouble. And they started to tool. 41, we were way behind Germany in manufacturing. We could not even keep up. By 42, 43, I think we had almost doubled their output.

Because we had our own steel, we had our own manufacturing plants, all you had to do is start making this instead of this. Tariffs would bring jobs back at this point. Later in our life, we may not be able to do it, but tariffs have a chance of saying, look, you want to...

You want to sell your stuff? Fine. Make it in America. Big stuff. Big manufacturing stuff. Make it in America. We'll give you incentives to bring your company, your manufacturing here. So we have these plants. We are producing our own steel. We're doing these things. Meanwhile, we're also going to drill, baby, drill. And as he said last night, frack, frack, frack, frack, frack.

And so we will bring our energy costs down. I think this is a game-changing moment. Game-changing. I mean, I'm never going to be in love with tariffs like some are. I'm not in love with tariffs either. But, I mean, the size of the government that would be required for a government to be funded by tariffs is the size of a government I like. Yes.

Yes. It's a lot smaller than the one we have. Yes. It does a lot fewer things. Yes. And I like that. And we were all about that up until the 13th, 16th Amendment.

Yeah, look, get rid of that. And it's a heck of a good step in the right direction. And I think it's also the right thing. I mean, there are really bad taxes out there. Income tax is one of them. The progressive income tax in particular. I'd just go for a flat tax.

Everybody pays the same. That would be better. We all have the same skin in the game. Yeah, and the payroll tax is another one. Trump has talked about that before, which is a regressive tax, not even a progressive tax, a regressive tax, where people who are at the bottom of the income scale pay a higher percentage than those at the top, which, again, you'd think the progressives would be all over, but they want their money. Anyway, Trump has proposed a lot of these different tax cuts, and look—

Look, until this election, I thought that was what everyone did in an election time. But I think he's actually going to do a lot of these things.

He's obviously he's restricted by the form of government we have. I know if he has the Senate and the House, I think we'll do a lot of this. And that would be great. It's certainly not going to go the wrong direction for once. And that would be nice. You know, I mean, if you can get this point, the stuff done that he says he's going to do in four years. And he he has told me, Glenn, it's not going to be four years. We have 100 days. We have 100 days.

And he's right. He's got to come in and just go boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom. Take everybody's breath away.

Because he's got to turn it around and turn it around quickly. Yeah, and I think if his focus is freeing people to do with their money what they want, rather than a centralized economic policy, which I don't think is a good thing. The more we centralize economic strategy, I think we've seen this in country after country. That turns out poorly. This is what Kamala Harris wants, though.

I mean, she wants a house in Washington making all the decisions for the entire country. And it's quite clear that that's not what Donald Trump wants. I mean, that's not to say that we can't find, I'm sure we can nitpick these policies and find things that we don't like. But at the end of the day, here's a person who understands the American economy. Yes. And by the way, I don't know if anyone recognized this. He was already president of the United States and things went pretty well.

Yeah. Right? It's not what it was in 16. We didn't know if he actually believed these things. We didn't know. The only thing I knew for sure is tariffs. Remember? Oh, yeah. Tariffs and at some level the border. And war. Those are two things. War. You mean being opposed to it. Being opposed to war. Those three things he's been really consistent on since like 1980. For 40 years. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. And those things I knew he would do. I...

I didn't know the rest. I didn't believe the rest. I'm going to make sure that we recognize Israel. Uh-huh. Sure. Right. I didn't know if he would prioritize Israel. I didn't know that he would name Supreme Court justices that would overturn Robles' trade. Exactly right. These are things that I really, I mean, not even doubted, was somewhat sure he wouldn't do back in 2016. I was positive. I was positive he wouldn't do it. But I think understandably, and that's why I think, too, you're seeing a real failure of

of what Harris and Walls are trying to do with this whole fascism Hitler thing. Oh my gosh. If in 2016, you have a guy who's a businessman, who's never been in politics, who you don't necessarily, can't necessarily lock down in all of his policies, and you don't

You know, he's a guy who's most famous for saying you're fired to people over and over again. Oh, I hope he becomes more famous soon. At some level in 2016, maybe you can convince some undecided people. I don't know. Is this guy Hitler? I don't know. Like, maybe you'd be able to work. Hitler was the guy. Here is the definition of fascism.

Hitler took the government, made it all regulations, and then went to the companies and said, I'm not going to put you out of business. You just have to make what we want. You have to make it how we want it and follow all these regulations. You can keep your company. You can get rich. He made public-private partnerships. Well, that's not what Donald Trump is doing. Yeah, and I'll point out, I mean, if you want to look at the defining...

piece of domestic policy for Donald Trump during his first term, probably the easiest way to summarize it would be deregulation. You could talk about the border, but some of that stuff he got done, some of it he didn't. You could talk about a bunch of different policies, but defining when it comes to domestic policy probably is deregulation. He did that all over the government. Did Adolf Hitler, was he famous for deregulation? No.

I'm pretty sure... And we will cut regulations! I will completely stay out of everything! No, he didn't say that. That was not his policy profile. We will privatize gas chambers! What?

It's dark, but it's hot. I mean, it's funny because it's just like, it's so inherently stupid. I mean, a closing argument, and I think like what, I was thinking about this because there's obviously a jam, a totally different strategy from the Harris campaign here in the last couple of weeks. They're like, now we're going on TV all the time and he's Hitler. No more joy. No more joy.

It's so bizarre. It's so weird. And I wonder if partially, obviously they know this isn't working, but I think their strategy, their piece of this argument behind the scenes is likely there are no more undecided voters we can get. No. So just like now charge our people. I want the MSNBC viewer at the polls. Yes. That's exactly what's happening and a setup for trouble after the election. But we'll get into some of that later.

You know, in a happy sort of way. Yeah. Joyful. Yeah, joyful. Thank you. We're joyful. And I'm really joyful. Okay. All right. First of all, can you give me the tweet from Kamala Harris yesterday? Oh, you have the audio? Go ahead. That's better. Play the audio. Just imagine the Oval Office in three months. Picture it in your mind. Okay. I'm picturing it. It is either. So, but there's a choice that everybody has. So let's imagine it for a moment. Okay. Okay.

What do you mean?

To do list. Okay, stop. You mean, so in other words, the to-do list, which is probably more aptly called. The should have already been done list. Yeah. Right? Like you've been vice president for four years. Should have done that. Should have done that. What a weird thing for an incumbent to run on. And what? Have a to-do list? I know. I know. Wait, what have you been doing? I know. And how bizarre is it? She won't tell you what that to-do list is, by the way.

She has to study it some more. But anyway, she says it on a day that Donald Trump said, much to my chagrin, I would be open to pardoning Hunter Biden. Now, I wouldn't be. I don't get that one. But that is the kind of guy. He does not believe that.

in an enemy's list. He doesn't. He will... You know what I think that is? I could be wrong on this. This is Hillary Clinton saying, block him up, and then did he? No. He thinks it's bad. What I think this is... Tell me if you think... You know him better than I do, so this is me just guessing the way he's thinking, but I think this is a way to try to further this divide between Kamala and

and him. Like, I think he, I think there's a part of Biden at this point that wants Kamala to lose because he's so pissed off that they took this nomination from him. And I think this is just him sort of like,

Like, you know, he's encouraging a little bit. Maybe this isn't so bad if I were to win, Joe. I don't know. You think that has anything to do with that? He plays three-dimensional chess all the time. This is the way he thinks. I don't know. That's very good observation. Very good. Let me see. Let me take you to a couple of other places. Well, here's Hillary. The same story. This is Hillary. Listen to this.

And, you know, one other thing that you'll see next week, Caitlin, is Trump actually reenacting the Madison Square Garden rally in 1939. I write about this in my book. I bet you do. President Franklin Roosevelt was appalled that neo-Nazis, fascists in America were lining up to essentially destroy

their support for the kind of government that they were seeing in Germany. You know what's really weird? You know what one of the leaders of, that was called the German Boone Movement, you know who one of the leaders was? Father Coughlin, a progressive Democrat. Says the person who loves the early 20th century progressives, right? Right, of course.

Cynthia wrote in about her experience with ReliefFactor. She said, "'Yesterday was the first time I felt completely free of the pain and cramping from my right hip and leg. It's almost the second week of taking ReliefFactor, and this is the first time that I've actually felt genuinely hopeful that my life will go back to normal. Thank you for ReliefFactor. Cynthia, thank you for trying it and taking it as directed for three weeks.'"

That is the test. Will you see a difference in three weeks? If you don't see any difference, it's probably not going to work for you. But 70% of the people go on to order after the three weeks. It's 1995. Relieffactor.com. Relieffactor.com. That is their three-week quick start test. You take that as directed, and hopefully you're going to feel like Cynthia does. 800, the number four relief. 800-4-relief. Relieffactor.com.

Now back to the podcast. This is the best of the Glenn Beck program. So have you seen the McDonald's Happy Meal toys, the videos or the pictures of them? I've seen those, but they're not real. I don't know. Remember I told you? Remember I told you?

There would be a time you wouldn't be able to believe your eyes or ears. I mean, they look completely real, but I got to assume they're AI or something. I don't know. If you know about these Happy Meals, and you have one, will you just call us real quick? 888-727-BECK. McDonald's is not going to start producing Happy Meal action figures of candidates. I wouldn't think so.

But they look so real. And people are like, hey, I've got three of these so far. I'll trade for the Elon Musk one. I can't believe that. Right. I think it's a joke, right? It's got to be AI. Unless they have Kamala Harris ones and Joe Biden ones. They make all the candidates type of thing? Yeah. But I can't imagine. But I'm looking now. Can we get a camera on the screen in front of me underneath Sarah's head?

You can't, can you? Anyway, there's... Sarah Nottecam. Get it on my screen here. Look at this picture of... Look at this picture of Elon Musk. I mean, what are you... And it is stew. It's not Elon Musk. That's where we were going. It's stew. It is. It even has your dimples. No, Sarah. I didn't say nipples. I said dimples. Dimples.

That is... Excuse Sarah, she's drunk. So, I mean, I can't... Sarah's going, what? How do you know what his nipples look like? I said dimples, but thanks for chiming in. I do get the Elon Musk thing from time to time. That is one that I get people like, oh, you look like Elon Musk, which I...

I mean, he almost seems like a normal look. It's not a compliment. It's not an insult per se. No, you do kind of look like him. I mean, you look exactly like his McDonald doll. Yes. That looks more like you than him. If that's real, I want it. Oh, you have to. I have to get it, but it's not real. You could convince your grandkids. I was so big that McDonald's made me into a toy. I do think it would be fun at some point to rent a Tesla.

And hire a bunch of photographers to just kind of stand out in front of a restaurant. And just like, I'll just get out and just walk in and kind of like duck my head. And have everybody go, wow, that guy thinks he looks like Elon Musk. I don't, but I do hear that from time to time. And I would like to be, can I walk into a bank and just be like, hey, it's me, Elon. Just give me some of the cash. Whatever amount you can grab is fine.

Yeah, that's called robbery. The amazing thing, I just can't get over, again, where they're making fun, and especially Tim Walls, who is one of the most awkward guys ever coming out on stage. So awkward. Him making fun of Elon Musk, who is autistic. Asperger's. Asperger's, yeah. Okay, so he has Asperger's.

Since when does a presidential candidate remember when Donald Trump talked years ago? OK, and everybody was outraged and they thought it was wrong. I thought it was wrong, too. I think he eventually thought it was wrong himself. Here's Tim Walz going on and saying, you know, and he's walking around like a spaz or what did he say? Skipping on the state. And it's like, yeah, because he has Asperger's, you dope. And this is a guy whose son is handicapped.

And they were very quick to complain about anyone who called that out. Yeah. Which I think I actually thought his, you know, him at the DNC was like actually really endearing his son because, you know, his son was just like overly gushingly proud of his dad, which is fine. On the other side, like.

My least favorite thing of this election cycle is having a closer relationship with Tim Walls. I can't stand him. He drives me nuts. Everything about him drives me nuts. I don't know what it is. I know what it is. They're fake. It's fake. I think that's what it is. Everything seems so fake. The fake, I'm a hunter thing. The fake, uh,

excitement on stage. I'm just so excited. Yeah, the fake, like, I'm just a normal dad. Oh, God, it's so irritating. The I'm just a knucklehead. Yeah, that stuff. You know, when I was performing surgery on my wife and I was giving her a kidney transplant. Wait a minute. What? I'm sorry. I'm a knucklehead sometimes. I don't know what I was saying. The inauthentic liar, this sort of like,

Here is every goofy sitcom dad. It's like what the left thinks a Midwestern dad is like. And it's so irritating. I find him...

20 times more irritating than kamala harris like kamala harris i she is what she is she's terrible she's an awful politician i've i've seen this person a million times throughout politics walls is so irritating in a totally different way it hits me at my core like i can't stand him i really think i don't know what it is are uh have developed over the last especially gen z

They have developed this bull crap meter. Unlike, you know, my generation was the first generation to be marketed to from birth.

OK, we saw marketing when we were little on television and everything else. And, you know, all the serial marketing and everything else. Buy unfiltered cigarettes, boy. It was like that. It was, you know, four out of five doctors recommend camel cigarettes. And you're like, really?

And so, you know, we were marketed to this generation has been lied to for so long. We yes, we had the tobacco lie. But generally speaking, other things were kind of on the up and up. You know what I mean? Not now.

Everything is a lie. Everything they see, their friends on Facebook, it's a lie. That's not them actually authentically smiling. That's not them authentically doing anything. They're setting this fake situation up for the camera or a video or whatever.

They know authenticity when they see it. And I think that's why you're seeing such a swing in Z. And you're also seeing Z kind of repelled from the Harris-Walls kind of campaign. They're like,

I don't think that's real. President Xi, I think he really is compelled to go toward the Kamala Harris campaign. Yes, he is Generation Z. Generation Z. Okay, yeah, that's true. No, you're right. The leader of China, absolutely. It's like, what? This sounds great. Glenn Beck is now saying I'm against Kamala Harris? That's got to change. I think we're seeing this in polls, too, when you look at...

at the movement, especially young men, young men are really running away from the democratic party. Now they're young women are becoming more liberal. I think I don't know if that continues. Are you worried about that? No, I've told you, I think what I think that is. I wasn't listening. Oh, okay. Yeah. Okay. All right. Well, that's, I should have expected it. Right. So excuse the audience. You've probably heard this before, but this will be new for Stu. Right. The, the,

I think this can be explained by no matter how much the left wants to say, men and women are exactly the same.

And you're like, uh, that guy in a short, tight, you know, short shorts there on the volleyball team just blew that other team member's head off with a serve. No. No, they're exactly the same. Well, we're very different. And there's one thing that we're all born with.

Men are born with a protective. I thought you were going to go to different P word there, but go ahead. With a penis. Oh, yes. Okay. Yes. But also a protective gene. Okay. I'm sorry, but we are naturally built to be the protector.

And women, and this is all, you know, I've met women who are not like this. I've met men who are not like this. It's a generality. Generally, women are the nurturer. They're the first to run and go, oh, I know you didn't mean it. And dad's like, yeah, I did. Oh, no, no, we can't spank. We can't spank. Yeah, we can. So we're just different. Okay.

What's happening to Generation Z with both the females and the males is I think the guys are seeing, I think that's a lot of bull crap. And no, my instincts tell me that's not going to work out well for us. They see trouble on the horizon. And so their natural instinct to stand up and be a man,

Bad times or hard times make strong men. We're at the beginning of the hard times. Generation Z is going to be the strong men. They're going to reject all this. What are you saying? I can wear a dress and be a he-man? I'm not afraid to say a woman could rule over me. Shut up.

Shut up. They've had enough of it. And they don't have a problem. It's exactly the way we were for most people when Barack Obama started saying, yeah, and they just hate black people. You're like, I don't hate black. What are you talking about? All they see is race. I don't see. I listen to Martin Luther King, all of that stuff. That's in the past. That's in history. Right? That's where Generation Z is on this.

They don't have a problem with women being the president. They don't have a problem with any of this stuff. We have evolved. As much as the progressive movement has tried to regress our society...

They know that's bullcrap instinctively. The reason why the women are flipping so hard on the other side is because their maternal instinct is kicking in. And they see the sad little tale about all of these immigrants where the guys will see, yeah, they're gang members. The women will just see, yeah, but what about the poor little child that's

You mean the one that's in danger of being marketed for sex? Well, no, but there are these little kids that... This is all normal. It's all normal. This is what Ali Stuckey is talking about in her book. What is it? Toxic Empathy? Right? Yeah. She's talking about how you're playing on that. Right. Yeah. They're targeting women with that sort of approach. And it works on a lot of women. Right. It works on them. It's natural. It's natural. It's natural.

And it's natural for guys to say no. It's natural for guys who generally are the one, again, generally, I know a lot of strong women that are not like this, but generally they're the ones who are like, get out of the way. I'm going to make something of my life. I am going to build this thing.

Where generally women are not cutthroat and they also, they can get in to be cutthroat and be, you know, a great entrepreneur or whatever. No, but they also will at some point say, I want to have a baby. I want to be a mom.

And some women are completely ruthless, right? Behind the scenes. I think, let me give you, may I say, I think, I think girls, I think women slowly grow out of that. Maybe by the time they're 80, they're not as ruthless as they were when they were teenage girls. Teenage girls are monsters. Can I give a counterpoint to this? Yeah. The rise of Kamala Harris.

Kamala Harris has been doing this behind the scenes for decades. Yes. And she has risen throughout politics. I'm trying to be careful with my words. She's risen throughout politics through a legitimate... I was trying to avoid... I was going to say a legitimate talent... Of having sex with her boss? I'm sorry. I shouldn't, but I just... Go ahead. A legitimate talent with...

with backroom politics. And I didn't say bedroom, though bedroom also would apply in this particular, certain portions of her career. But backroom politics. She was able to out-execute dozens of high-level politicians

competing attorneys in San Francisco to gain billionaire donors. I mean, her rise is it's legitimate talent of hers. It's her only talent. So but it has been women. Why is she here? When women go dark, when women go ruthless, there's studies on this. The the worst Nazi guards were the women.

Really? Oh, my gosh. Read about the women's camps and the women that were, they were ruthless, ruthless, far more than the men. This is the best of the Glenn Beck Program.

Avi Yemeni, he is a Rebel News reporter from Australia. Is this not your first time? No, no, I've been here before. Okay. So you're traveling. Where did you start? So we started in San Fran. Okay. That's the idea, starting in San Fran in like Kamala, the place that represents everything she represents. And we're going to end in Miami. So we've done a fair bit. This is a great location.

Large country. Right. I know. I know. You have a large continent, a very large country, but not a lot of people.

No, no. And I'll tell you this, I probably traveled now more of America than I have Australia. Really? It's a bit like I've never done a, I've never gone in an RV around Australia. Is there a gas station somewhere in the middle of Australia where you could? I have done. I've gone to Outback Australia during COVID to report on some of the crime stuff that was happening in Alice Springs, in the middle of Australia. So yeah, there's...

You can get to places, but you have long drives of nothing. Beautiful, beautiful country, though. Okay, so what are you finding so far? You're halfway through your trip. You're here in Texas. So what are you finding along the way? What are people actually feeling and saying? Look, people keep asking me in Australia, especially like, what are you predicting? And I go, look, if I'm going by the mood, the mood is clearly Trump because I'm seeing people that are saying,

You have your Trumpers, you have your Republicans. They're fine. Most of them are proud to say it. Then you have the people that kind of – the whole issue is about the last four years has just been tough. I was a registered Democrat. I am a Democrat. I've always voted Democrat. And they've gone to Trump. And then you have the Democrats that say they're voting Democrat. They're like, we're going to lose.

And then you have like the diehard Democrat that are like, no, Kamala's way ahead. So do you find, you know, there's always this suppressed Trump voter that doesn't want to say. I think that's becoming less and less of a factor now. You know, people...

God bless them that six years ago were wearing the MAGA hats who were just like on suicide missions. You'd see them and you'd be like, the guy's wearing a red hat. He's crazy. But now people don't have that feeling. Is there still the suppressed Trump? And do you think that there is a suppressed Trump?

Trump supporter in some that are saying, therefore, Kamala, they just don't want anybody to know. I was actually surprised a bit. I think in San Antonio, not San Antonio, San...

Let's see, you were in Las Cruces, Los Angeles, San Francisco, San Diego. San Diego. In San Diego, I was surprised because there was – what I noticed when you say closet Trumpers, the way you work it out is by – so I go, okay, you don't want to – I ask people what they're voting and they say, oh, I'd rather not say whatever. And then I go, oh, so what are the kind of issues that bother you? And then it's their answers about cost of living. The last four years have been –

they're essentially saying have been horrible, it was easier before. So you know who they're voting, they just don't want to say it out loud. They're scared to say it. And I ask them, what are you worried about? And some of them say, you know, it depends which way this is going to play. We don't know. And I've got family, I've got friends, I've got this.

But I've actually had really interesting interactions yesterday, in fact, in Texas, in Waco, Texas. I reckon it hasn't even – we haven't published it yet. So we've got, like, this website, rvacrossamerica.com, where we're publishing everything. We haven't even produced it yet, but we bumped into a couple where I'm just asking – in fact, everywhere I go, I try to think of something unique to the place. In Texas, I was reading some reports that there are Democrats that think that Texas is going to flip from, you know –

Red to blue. Yeah, red to blue. And so there was that question and there was also I read a progressive local writer that's saying that if Trump succeeds in deporting all the illegal immigrants, the economy in Texas is going to crash. Such craziness. So that was my question. I don't want to hear it from media pundits. I want to hear it from the average person.

And so I walk up to this couple like I've done to everyone. Mind you, I was expecting a lot more cowboys here. I know. Really disappointed. I've had friends that fly into the state and they're like, where are all the cows? You're like, good Lord, it's not Texas 1874. I was hunting. There was an Aussie hunting the streets of Texas looking for cowboys. I was like a crocodile hunter, just more cowboy hunting. Anyways, so I asked this couple and they're

He was a Kamala. He was like a left-wing young guy. He was a year younger than me, so he was 38 or something. And then they kind of broke out into this argument. I kind of stepped back and just played the mic because she was clearly a Trumper. She was making all the arguments that you would hear, like that I see online play out. It was playing out in real life in front of me between a couple, which I –

I hope to God that they stay together. But I said it to them. And what was he saying?

So he was, you know, it got to the point, you know, they digressed to Black Lives Matter, for example. And he was making all the arguments of, you know, I went to those who were great. And she's like, I was working in a coffee shop. They were terrorists. They were attacking. But it went through everything, all the different. And, you know, he just labeled her a conspiracy theorist. He said that you can't have, you know, I'm not going to vote for a side that waves Nazi flags at their rallies. I can tell you right now, that's not going to last. Yeah.

She turns around, she goes, what are you calling me, a Nazi? And it's like, no, no, not you. Yeah, right, right, right.

For me, it was the most compelling kind of interview, which I really stopped interviewing because they were just doing the work for me. And I think it also just demonstrates what's happening across this country. I think that's what's really going on. The fact that they're together, I actually hope they stay together because- Were they married or just a couple? No, they've been seeing each other. They're clearly-

I'm someone that looks at that and I hope that they can because I come from a family. I'm one of 17 children. 17? Yes, I'm- Your mother was tired. My mother is tired. She'll never babysit my kids. She says, I have done my time, she tells me. But in our family, we have wide ranging- I've got-

what I consider far left-wing brothers, siblings. And then I have some that, you know, they might consider me far right, but there are some that are more conservative than me even. And I think interestingly enough, the silver lining of October 7th for us in our family, and probably for a lot of Jews is actually we realize that- We're all family. Yeah, it doesn't actually, those political differences don't matter. There's a greater enemy and they want us all dead. But I would love to see that,

for not only America, for the world, that you can actually have opposing views and talk about it. I agree with you. I don't know if they'll last because he was jumping on. It was almost the personal tax, but he had to skip over his partner. As a man who married at 19 and politics did not play a role at all and her politics were much, really almost Hillary Clinton.

It doesn't... It doesn't work. It's not possible. I've heard that argument. Yeah, it doesn't work. If you're both strong-willed and strong opinion, I mean, especially when it's... If you're in a relationship, try to make it work. Do everything you can to make it work, but it takes both of you wanting to make it work. But if you're dating somebody, I mean, God bless you, but why put yourself through when somebody is calling...

Your philosophy, Nazi. Yeah. I mean, that's nuts. That's nuts. Okay, take me through a couple of these sound bites here. What do we have? Let me see here. We have you catch a voter on her bad argument using bad logic. That was my most fun, I reckon, that one. Okay, let's go. Cut six, please. My sister is trans, and she... It's like when someone's like...

talking about something that directly affects you and they have no skin in the game. None. Nada. Zero. Like, you know, it's different. How do you feel about Israel and Palestine? I mean, I don't think the genocide in Gaza is good. Do you have skin in the game? Well, like, that's like a little bit of a different issue, though.

Like, we're talking about like the health... I don't know, but I'm just trying to make the point here. So you're upset... We're talking about a foreign war and I'm talking about people's healthcare. I'm talking about people's lives. So my mother lives in Israel. My sister, my brother, you have a really strong opinion about Israel. I'm applying your same argument back at you. You don't know what you're talking about. You've got no skin in the game. And... I'm okay. Okay. She just walks away. You see how that works? Funny how her logic only applies to her political foes. Yeah. Imagine my shock.

The great part about that is there's just unrelated laughter at the perfect time in that video. It's like in the background, but she's just laughing at her argument. I only realized that when reading the comments. I didn't even hear the laughter. Someone's just laughing at something totally separate in the background, but it just timed perfectly into your video. Might have been. Which city was that in? That was in Hollywood. That was Hollywood. You're a brave man. Let's go to cut seven.

What threat to your community does Donald Trump pose? Anti-trans, anti-LGBTQ, actually trying to reverse rights for women. What rights for women? The right to control their body. Because how would you define a woman? I would define a woman as anyone who says that they're a woman. So abortion rights would not really be then women because if somebody who can't have...

I mean, you can play semantics games, like, on how you want to describe things, but I did say that anyone who has a uterus to be able to, you know, control their body. So he's not really against women's rights, he's against... Then what's a woman?

I don't want to argue that point with you. Take care, good luck. I love that. I absolutely love it because that's usually the way it goes. You're so stupid, I don't want to argue with you anymore. And you're like, ah. Yeah, look, I can't get away with that fun in Australia anymore. Like you said, Australia is a tiny place and everyone, I might be small, but everybody kind of recognized me and then they just get angry. A bit like probably here.

What I'm finding great about America is I can just have normal conversation. I'm talking to everyone. Those were two clips of, you know, two left. I'm talking to right wing and I'm challenging everyone's kind of view because the idea of what we're trying to achieve here is to hear what actual Americans think. So those are on extreme ends and you're finding generally that

our population to be what? At each other's throat, civil war, what? I think a lot of people are nervous about what's happening, but I think most people are more scared of the outcome of the election. Really, like the average person is scared about their pocket. They feel like cost of living and if it continues the way it's going, we're going to be in all sorts of trouble. The other thing that I've noticed- That's every election that has ever been in situations like this, that

It's the economy, stupid. It's the economy. It's always been. The other thing that stood out is I have noticed, and I remember seeing it from afar, watching commentators here, but I see it in real life. Anytime you go to even a liberal pocket within a Republican state, but a liberal state or a liberal pocket...

there's suddenly like this explosion of homelessness and like drug abuse drug use on the street and i'm talking to the homeless people i'm asking them like what is br and most of them are coming there and it's it's funny to see even the mental gymnastics of the local um you know liberals that are there i'm going why is it that when i go to a republican city that or a republican town area

I don't see any of this. And they go, oh, no, because, you know, they'll give all different sorts of excuses as in, you know, this is a much safer space for them. You know, liberals are more giving. So they come here and they're... So it's all... They twist all these things to make it like they are good things. And I'm like, then is this the way you want America to be? Like, is this the vision you have for the rest of America? Right. And...

It's on one hand, they complain about it and they move to places like Texas. Yeah. But then they bring their policies and their politics with them, which I fear for places like Texas because you think like it's amazing. I've never seen. So I was saying this to our driver on the way. The only other place I've seen such patriotism as in so many flags proudly displayed is Israel.

Israel and Texas. Yeah. And it's beautiful because I think you need to be proud about it. I think so too. That's why I'm trying to convince Donald Trump to build a Western wall, Northern wall, Eastern wall, and Southern wall around Texas. Just to save Texas. We don't want anybody. We don't want any Californians, New Yorkers. You know, we're fine. We're fine. Can you open it to one Australian? No.

All right. I've got 16 brothers. I've got to tell you that Australia is the perfect prison. I think God designed it as a prison. He's like, you know what? Place to put criminals and all of the creepy animals that kill you. We'll just put them all right here. And they tested it in COVID and it works. Yeah. Hey, have you guys sobered up on that at all? I mean, are you? Yeah, no. Is the population going? Everybody's forgotten. So they didn't, nobody. Learned a lesson. Learned a lesson. No. Oh, geez.

No, no, no. Oh, crazy. Avi, thank you so much. You can find all of this at aviacrossamerica.com. That's aviacrossamerica.com. Na, na, na.
