All right, you guys. Welcome in. Welcome in. Welcome in. We've got a big election night show tonight. Going to cover a lot of different issues about all the excuses that are being made for why the Republicans are probably expected to underperform tonight. If you've followed me very long, you know I do election night shows. Oftentimes, I'll stay on the air deep into the night and kind of do analysis as the night goes on. Not going to do that here tonight, obviously. But I do want to give you sort of a preview. And go through some of the history of how we got where we are tonight. Starting with the 2024 election and working our way forward. So we'll do all that and more coming up next on Candace. So there's a conventional wisdom that takes place. Every every four years. So we have the presidential elections that take place every four years. And then in between the presidential elections, there's a midterm election. That's what's happening tonight. We'll get midterm. Actually, it's been going on for like a month. Everybody's early voting all over the country. But historically, there was just a single election day. I want to go back over and challenge maybe a little bit of that conventional wisdom, because the conventional wisdom is that the president's party always loses the midterms. That's just. Conventional wisdom. Everybody I've heard it a million times this week. Well, the presidential party always loses the midterm elections. So we anticipate Republicans will lose. The question is, how much will they lose? But go back in history and ask yourself, is that really true? You don't have to go back very far. The last two elections, the last two midterm elections. Go back to the first Trump administration, what I call Trump 1.0. Yes, the Democrats gained 40 seats in the United States House of Representatives. But the Republican Party, the party of President Trump, actually gained two Senate seats that year. They didn't get completely wiped out. They maintained control and everything went forward. Go back to 2022 under Democrat President Joe Biden. The Republican Party did gain a small number of seats in the U.S. House. They gained nine. But the Democrats actually gained one seat in the Senate. And so where does this conventional wisdom come from? Why have we heard it so much today? I think it's expectation setting. I think there's a lot of expectation. There's a lot of expectation setting going into tonight's election. Republicans know they're likely to get wiped out. They've had a very poor election season. They've had a horrific first two years of Donald Trump's presidency. So like a Super Bowl or a World Series or even a Little League tournament, somebody has to win and somebody has to lose. And if you think you know who's going to lose up front, then you start making your excuses. I want to go through some of those excuses tonight. Because rarely is there a single reason or any kind of, you know, broad agreement on why somebody loses an election. But everybody has an excuse. And that's where the money is made in politics. It's not about winning elections. Anybody can go in and win an election and then everybody wants a little piece of the credit. Those in power will tell you that's what's important, winning elections. But what these monsters, what these horrific people in the elitist class, our ruling class, what they really want is someone to come up with a good reason they lost. Republicans, Republicans, excuse me, have historically been a miserable majority party. They've just been terrible at it. We've given them majority several times in the last couple of decades. And they frankly just don't do what they say they're going to do. They don't do what they campaigned on doing. And you don't have to go very far back to realize it's true. When Republicans held the majorities in the Congress and in the White House, these are some of the things they promised us they would do the last few years. They said they would build the wall. There's no wall. You can look. You can walk across the border. People still walk across the border. They tell us, well, we don't need a wall because we've stopped everybody. Well, how do you know we stopped everybody? Well, we're not arresting anybody. Well, how do we know that you're not just letting people by and not arresting them and telling us that we don't need a wall? You promised a wall. There's no wall. We've been promised a wall for 10 years. There's no wall. Then you told us you were going to deport all the illegals over the wall. Well, there's no wall to go over. But they told us they're going to deport all the illegals. They tried maybe a few people here and there. And then they largely gave up on it. I think at one point Biden was outpacing the Trump administration on deporting illegals. You remember not too terribly long ago, Republicans had both the House, the Senate, and the White House during the first Trump administration. And they all campaigned on a singular promise to repeal Obamacare. Well, guess what? We still have Obamacare. It did not get repealed. John McCain famously put his, his thumbs down for his vote before he was mercifully taken from us to end the effort to repeal Obamacare. Anybody who's tried to sign up for health insurance recently understands what a disaster Obamacare has been. It's expensive. It doesn't cover very much. It's just not very good for the average everyday working person. They also told us they were going to end unnecessary foreign wars. Trump told us he was going to end the Ukrainian war before he even took office. Uh, newsflash, it's still going on today. They also told us they weren't going to start any new unnecessary foreign wars. Yet here we are on the eve of some really bellicose language in Iran in a war that's been going on for months. There is, you know, maybe a tentative ceasefire, maybe some things, but even just yesterday or the day before, we had some activity on the Iranian war front. And if you remember Tucker Carlson's tweet, we'll reference it here in a moment. We might have some real advancements on the Iranian war front. The Iran war coming up here in the next few days, maybe a few weeks. They also told us they were going to cut taxes for everybody. This is a common thing Republicans tell us. Oh, we're going to cut taxes for everyone. Well, you've had the House, you've had the Senate, you've had the White House. Where are the tax cuts? For that matter, isn't being a Republican about reducing spending? Isn't that kind of a core tenet of being Republican? We're going to reduce spending. Spending is out of control. The swamp is spending. We just passed a $1.5 trillion defense budget. We're running deficits. They always tell us they're going to cut the deficits. No deficit cuts on the horizon. And it is on and on and on and on. The Republicans have had control of both houses of Congress and the presidency for the last two years, and they've done none of it. They've done none of it. They never do. That's the problem with the Republican Party. They love being out of power. Because why? It's easy to raise money and run for an election when you're out of power. When you're in the minority, you have no power to do anything. So you can say absolutely anything. If you're out of power, guess what? We're going to build a wall. We're going to repeal Obamacare. We're going to cut the deficit. We're going to cut spending. We're going to end these wars. Give them the keys to the kingdom. And what do they do? Nothing. They do nothing. They do absolutely nothing. They can't do anything. And their messaging is completely opposed to the elites and billionaire donor class who funds their election, which is why they never do anything. The 2026 election is no different. Republicans have nothing to run on right now because they haven't done anything. And so they're looking for someone to blame. And that's what we're going to talk about tonight, because they're looking for someone to blame. So who can you blame when you have been so horrific, when you have been so lousy at governing for the last two years and you're begging us to give you two more years, who can you blame? Well, go back to the death of Charlie Kirk. Go back to the death of Charlie Kirk, because I feel like that's where the wheels started coming off. If you go back to September 10th of 2025, we were nine months or so, eight or nine months into the Trump administration. There was really no talk of the midterm elections. There was really no talk of much of anything. The Republicans were sort of kumbaya-ing around and sort of waiting for all the things we'd been promised. And then Charlie Kirk passes away. Charlie Kirk dies. And all of a sudden, we start getting a hint of the messaging that was supposed to come out of the death of Charlie Kirk. The first time we hear a piece of this messaging is actually at the memorial for Charlie Kirk. We hear it out of the mouth of his wife, Erica Kirk. And this is what it sounded like. After Charlie's assassination, we didn't see violence. We didn't see rioting. We didn't see revolution. Instead, we saw what my husband always prayed he would see in this country. We saw revival. And that's what we're going to talk about tonight. Coming up next. Oh, wait, I already do the Candace thing. Thank you. I can't hear you if you're saying something. Okay, sorry. That's not what we're going to talk about next. That's what we're going to talk about right now because we've already done the open. All right. I don't know why I just had this like flash of horror that I hadn't done it yet. So Erica Kirk comes out and she gives us a hint of where they're headed. You know where they're headed? They're headed to the fact that they're going to blame us because they wanted a revival. They wanted a Republican unification around Charlie Kirk. She wasn't the only one saying it. We got a headline out of the Wall Street Journal. Right here, a Splintered GOP shows signs of unity in the wake of Charlie Kirk's killing. Oh, we got signs of unity. This is very early on, September 21st. That was, again, the date of the memorial. Now go to the Fox headline. We have Utah leaders urging unity following Charlie Kirk's assassination. That's September 13th. That's even before the memorial. And if you go in and read that article, it's saying history will dictate if this is a turning point for our country, but every single one of us gets to choose right now if this is a turning point for us. That's a quote from Governor Cox. They're appropriating the phrase turning point and they're telling us that it's up to us. You better fall in the wake. You better fall in line. This is an opportunity for unity and we're going to ride this unity on the back of a dead Charlie Kirk. It was kind of gross. How long did it last? Not very long. If we're being honest, it did not last very long. Why? Because immediately there were all these questions about what happened to Charlie Kirk. There was all this weirdness coming out of turning point and everybody looked around and said, hey, wait a minute. What did you guys know? Did you know something was coming on September 10th at UVU? All of a sudden, Candace became the scapegoat because she was sort of the one out there leading the charge. Here is a quote tweet from Blake Neff on a piece on Candace from Brandi Zadrozny on MSNBC. Now, Tyler Robinson's arrest might have united a MAGA movement that had been tearing itself apart over the Epstein files and the war in Gaza. It might have provided a common enemy, a focus on lefty posters who were joking about Kirk's death or Antifa that the Trump administration had blamed for Kirk's murder. It might have, if not for Candace Owens. That is Blake Neff pointing out that he thinks it's Candace Owens that ruined the party that was supposed to take place on the top of Charlie Kirk's coffin. It's really gross messaging, if you ask me. It's really disgusting messaging. And if you, lest you think, and this is part of the weird part of this, lest you think that was limited to just Blake Neff or just Turning Point, here's Jeremy Boring. Here's Jeremy Boring talking about how Candace derailed the plan. A plausible case can be made that Candace Owens almost single-handedly derailed the biggest Christian revival of the 21st century so far just after Charlie Kirk's assassination. It's hard to imagine a greater act of spiritual evil. A greater act of spiritual evil because there was some planned. I mean, it's hard for me to explain it any other way than it sounds like they had a plan. You know, like George Zinn said he had a plan and he was going to let the assailant get away. If you don't know what I'm talking about, trust me, he said it. It sounds like they had a plan. There was a plan to go after Antifa. There was a plan to go after the left. There was a plan to have this big spiritual revival and doggone it, Candace Owens came out and ruined the plan. We also have Ben Shapiro weighing in on this, saying that Candace Owens destroyed the unity moment. Instead of that moment of unity, either political or spiritual, instead what we got was rampant conspiracism promoted by precisely people who were not banished. Precisely people, while they themselves were banishing themselves from the movement, people themselves, who were not in fact in any way treated with any level of skepticism. The ideological border control went away and one of the things that happened was that the moment devolved and it is impossible to tell the story of the last year without talking about this because that is very much part of the story. TPUSA, as we'll talk about with Andrew Colvin in a little while, is alive and well. It is thriving. There are lots of great things happening, but the promise of the moment was destroyed. It was. And it was destroyed by people like, for example, Candace Owens, who spends and has spent literally the entire year since going after TPUSA and Erica Kirk and promoting wild, insane conspiracism with regard to pretty much everybody up to and including me, among others. So Ben Shapiro joining the crowd. So we have Ben Shapiro, we have Jeremy Boring, we have Blake Neff. Basically, we have all the TPUSA surrogates all jumping on the same bandwagon. This is your fault. This is your fault, Candace Owens. We had something great going on for at least 11 days until we had the weird memorial service where Erica Kirk did the weird thing where she came out to the weird fireworks and the weird white suit. We had something great going on and we could have united behind this greatness and you ruined it. Why? Because you were not satisfied with the official narrative about what happened to Charlie Kirk. You started asking questions and rather than we, Jeremy Boring, Ben Shapiro, Erica Kirk, Blake Neff, Andrew Colvett, rather than them, that group answering those questions, they started a war. They started an intra-party war. The people who had been on the same team for the 2020 election, the 2024 election, all of a sudden were fighting each other over what happened in the wake of Charlie Kirk's death. In fact, it came to a head in middle of December of last year. Prior to the middle of December of last year, you'll remember Candace Owens had not really said anything bad much about Erica Kirk at all. You're a humble host. I hadn't said anything on my show about Erica Kirk. until the middle of December. Not really. I had people in comments constantly saying, don't you think she's weird? Don't you think there's something more that you need to look into here? And I kept saying, no, no, she's a grieving widow. I don't know how I would act if I was a grieving widow. I've never lost a spouse. So it's the middle of December and we're on the eve of AmFest getting ready to kick off. We're on the eve of Erica Kirk getting ready to run off on a press tour in New York over five days hitting all the Fox programs. We're on the eve of Erica Kirk flying across the country in a Gulfstream 5 to meet with Candace Owens face-to-face to discuss the investigation into Charlie Kirk. And we get an absolute series of crash-outs from Tim Poole. Tim Poole gives us a series of crash-outs and he sort of gives the game away about where this is headed next. This first clip talks about the midterms that are taking place tonight. This was back on December 3rd. This was 11 months ago. Here's a clip of Tim Poole 11 months ago anticipating that the Republicans would get trounced in the midterms. Huey says, Tim, I work in construction and experience the same thing. My coworkers are all in on the Charlie Kirk conspiracies. If the Republicans lose in the midterms, I believe that Candace Owens is wholly responsible. She is one of the biggest podcasts on the right doing everything to go to war. With the organization that helped get Trump elected. Turning Point specifically was going out and registering people to vote. Without Charlie, it's in trouble. Turning Point needs to be able to go out and rally young people and register them to vote. And she's doing everything she can to destroy that. I agree. I agree, Tim Poole. Why is that Candace's fault? Why is Candace Owens responsible for TPUSA being in trouble? That's not something that registers with me. That's not something I can look at and say, hey, I agree with you there. Now, that was kind of measured. That was him looking 11 months into the future, I think, recognizing rightly at the time that the Republicans had totally mismanaged the first year of the Trump administration, that the second year didn't appear to be going any better because we were now, we had Operation Midnight Hammer. The Ukraine war was still blazing. The Epstein files did not get released in full. They were not unredacted. The little pieces that got released, we had that weird moment where these influencers run up and pick up a binder of files and act like they got something. And then we find out that everything in those files was already released. Then it was kind of like hide the files. And then we get that weird moment of Donald Trump saying, are we still talking about Jeffrey? Yes, Mr. President, we are. We still are. We still are on the eve of the election, on the night of the election. We still are. Then there are a lot of people who are sitting home tonight not voting for your party because of that. But that was kind of a measured response from Tim Poole. Now let's go just five days later. Five days later. So he has this measured response. You know, if the Republicans lose, I'm blaming Candace Owens. Listen to his tone change in five days. I'm not doing this to benefit anybody. Nobody's paying me. There's no f***ing Russia. There's no f***ing Israel. There's just me sticking my neck out and then risking dying for what? A bunch of cowards that don't want to stand up to protect themselves? People like f***ing Candace Owens? I couldn't believe that she put you in the thumbnail of her f***ing her piece today. I'm done. The idea that she didn't f*** that you had some benefit or that you benefit somehow? She benefited. I think she's a fed and I think she killed Charlie. No one benefited more than her. And now she is. When you look at what's stopping us from winning in 2026 right now, what the biggest threat and the biggest fear we have is, it is the disarray on the right. It is the fracturing of the coalition of all the different voices that came together and stopped the neoliberal bulls*** liberal economic order machine that was coming out and telling everybody to chop their off and that you had to get injected or get locked in your house. And here we have a coalition resisting and rejecting that Charlie Kirk dies and he's not perfect. He loved Israel. Some people don't like that, but he certainly did organize a movement that brought people together that helped get Trump elected, helped Republicans win and resisted what the democratic party had been doing. And these psychopath institutions, I don't want to go back to COVID. Does everybody remember what that was like when you were locked in your home to wear two masks and you couldn't go anywhere unless they stuck you in the arm? And the only resistance we had was these feckless loser Republicans who've got nothing done over the past year. And now Charlie Kirk was murdered and we say, holy crap, what do we do? How do we keep things together? And Candace with a smile on her face and Ian Carroll and all the rest of them say, turning point, did it to themselves. They destroyed themselves. Pull your donations because they work for Israel. Even Nick Fuentes calling it out, saying this is psychotic. So when we lose in the midterms and the Democrats bring back their panels and their subpoenas, and they start arresting people like they had already done in the past four years, and then we get whatever the equivalent of lockdowns is going to be, and you get President Gavin Newsom, you can mark it all back to this moment when you had evil stand, scream, and cowards refuse to do anything. This holiday, all plans, even unlimited, are just $15 a month. A holiday that's not even $15 a month. It's a holiday that's not even $15 a month.

Do what you said you were going to do when you ran for office. Build the wall, deport the illegals, repeal Obamacare, end the unnecessary foreign wars. Try not starting new foreign wars. Cut taxes, reduce spending, cut the deficit. Just do the normal things we elected you to do. Release the files. Just do what we asked you to do. But what you cannot do, and this was their big mistake, and this is what they cannot admit to themselves. They haven't done anything they said they're going to do. Release the files. Do what you said you were going to do. Release the files. Do what you said you're going to do. Release the files. What are your consultants trying to find? They're not trying to find a way to win. They're trying to find an escape for why they lost. A scapegoat for why they lost. That is the Republican message going in to the 2026 midterms. Here's why we lost. Her name is Candace Owens. Oh, guess what? She's nine months pregnant. She's a mother of four. She broadcasts an internet show from her basement. Yes, that's why we lost. We have trillions of dollars of the economy we're managing. We've got missiles. We've got bombs. We've got guns. We've got soldiers. We've got tax policy. We've got Republicans in the House, Republicans in the Senate. We've got a Republican majority appointed Supreme Court. We've got a Republican in the White House. But that dadgum Candace Owens, keep in mind, he's predicting this 11 months ago. That's how bad it already was. That's how bad the fracture was in the Republican Party. When we get back to this break, I want to look at specific things that caused this fracture, specific things that caused this fracture, and then look at the messaging of how they've tried to get their way out of this. And then we'll take a quick look at the very end of what their closing message is. Believe it or not, if it makes you laugh as hard as it makes me laugh, you're going to need a restroom nearby. We'll be right back. I'll tell you about our friends at PDS Debt. Do you ever feel like you're working harder than ever but still falling behind every month?

Glad you got my little white nose wipe there at the end of that one. That's all right. That's all right. Hey, I want to go through some of the specifics. I want to start with the Iran war because I think that is probably the singular issue that will cause the Republicans the most trouble tonight. There are single-issue voters. There absolutely are single-issue voters. There are people that say, I'm an Epstein Files guy. I will never vote for you guys again until you release the Epstein Files in full, unredacted. But I would say that's the minority. I think most people look at the Iran war and they look out and they say, hey, wait a minute. You promised us no new wars, and now you've gotten us in a war that's causing gas prices to go higher, diesel prices to go higher, fertilizer prices to go higher, mortgage interest rates to go higher, the whore movement to go higher. I think that's the minority. I think most people look at the Iran war and they straight as closed. We've got chaos in the Middle East. We could have a refugee crisis. You're talking about ramping up a war that may involve some sort of ground invasion. Or now they're even talking, as Tucker mentioned over the weekend, a potential nuclear strike on Iran. He said it with a straight face. And nobody really came out and denied it. A few other people were like, I don't know. He seems a little hyperbolic here. Nobody in the administration came out and said, no, we're not talking about that. That's foolish, Tucker. So you get a contrast, I think, right now with the way Charlie Kirk sort of handled these sorts of war drum beatings while he was alive versus what we see coming out of TPUSA right now. I think Tim Poole kind of adequately diagnosed the problem. TPUSA is struggling. TPUSA had sort of branded itself as the reason Donald Trump got elected in the first place. And it was built on the back of Charlie Kirk. And that's why he's in trouble. That was that clip we played a moment ago. TPUSA is in trouble. Charlie Kirk came out and he had a famous tweet where he said, hey, the war drums are beating in D.C. Then we had Charlie Kirk going to the White House before Operation Midnight Hammer during the 12-day war, going to the White House and pleading with the president of the United States. He and Tucker Carlson were really the only two people able to get in, pleading with the president of the United States, please don't do that. Do this. Don't get involved. Everybody else was saying, eh, if they get involved, it won't be a big deal. It'll be a quick strike. It'll be over. Nobody, no harm, no foul, basically. Very few people will get hurt. Well, it's not exactly how it's panned out. I asked Joe Kent about this. I had Joe Kent on for an interview last week. I asked him about this and I asked him specifically, did you see Charlie Kirk in the White House? When did you see him? And what was Charlie Kirk's message to the president? And most importantly, did he get his way? Here's how Joe Kent answered at least a portion of the question. But I think those of us that were more in the restrainer camp, which Charlie was, we viewed it as like a partial victory. We knew the fight wasn't over, but we're like, okay, we prevented, we prevented ourselves from getting sucked into this thing. And we at least maybe won half the argument. So, but Charlie was probably one of the few outside voices. Him and Tucker, I think, were the only outside voices that were really advocating against it. Unfortunately, those, I think those were the two voices that, you know, that Susie Wiles, the chief of staff and others couldn't keep away from President Trump. I think the other, other people who would have encouraged more restraint, they didn't have the stature that, you know, Tucker and Charlie did. So they were easy to keep out. But then after that, other than those two, you know, Trump was surrounded by people that were encouraging him to listen to what Bibi was saying and to go down this path. So you're saying, your answer is Charlie may have gotten his way. He may have won the argument more than, than certainly the Israelis wanted, wanted to have happened. Oh, sir. I mean, definitely. Yeah. Charlie won the day on that argument. If you listen to the whole interview, and I highly encourage you to, if you listen to the whole interview on my channel, Joe Kent goes into this whole thing about how Charlie Kirk went to the president. It was like, don't get involved at all. Not only don't do Operation Midnight Hammer, stay out of it. We don't need a regime change war. We don't need anything else going on. And Joe Kent right there identified that Midnight Hammer was sort of the compromise. And in that sense, because it was the compromise, Charlie Kirk basically won the day. The Israelis were pushing hard on President Trump to do a full-scale war in Iran, a full-scale regime change war in Iran, kind of like what we're in now. And Charlie Kirk went there, Tucker Carlson went there, begging the president not to get involved. And the president ultimately sort of sided with the two of them and said, okay, I won't do a full-scale war. We'll just do a limited strike, a single limited strike. And then we'll be out of it. Nothing will really involve us much after that. Now contrast that with what they're saying now. I mean, you go and you look and you watch the Charlie Kirk show, the weirdly named Charlie Kirk show. You look at their Twitter feed. Yeah, Beavis and Butthead. You look at all the messaging coming out of TPSA. You listen to the CEO, the replacement of Charlie Kirk. She won't even talk about it. The Vanity Fair piece, they asked her very specifically about the. Iran war. And she's like, I don't know. I don't really pay much attention to it. Well, that's a really weird approach, considering you replaced a guy who lobbied for days inside the White House not to get involved in a war. It's a very distinct change. Here is how Beavis and Butthead, Andrew and Blake talked about Operation Epic Fury, which is what we're in right now with Iran, and whether or not it's technically a regime change war. The ultimate secession plan. The ultimate secession plan remains pretty unclear at this point. It seems to be there was an indication from President Trump where he was saying, we'll see who they choose, meaning it does seem that this is not a regime change war. I understand that can feel like, you know, a distinction without a difference, right? Because, yeah, the regime is going to change. These are targeted airstrikes to take out the leadership and allow the people of Iran to choose the next leader. And so we don't know how that's going to play out. We were we're very reticent around here about regime change wars. We're very reticent about going in to a country as large and as strong as Iran. And the unintended consequences are sure to be extreme. We don't know how this is going to ultimately play out. And they can't say that enough. Charlie was very concerned about regime change wars, was very reticent about using kinetic force in this region. But at the end of the day, Charlie, over and over and over again, he was very reticent about using kinetic force in this region. And said, this is why I elected President Trump. This is why I fought so hard for that. That's really what it is. Maybe I don't know what reticent means. I always thought it meant you were hesitant to speak on it. I didn't think I don't I don't know if he's using it correctly or not. But you got the message. You got the message. It's weak. It's milquetoast. It's dull as dishwater. These guys have no backbone. Why did people follow Charlie Kirk? He said what he wanted to say, how he wanted to say it, to whom he wanted to say it. That's why people respected what he had to say. That's why the president let him in. The Oval Office. But when the president let him in the Oval Office, he was saying, hey, don't do this. You don't want to do this war. Well, lucky for people who are in favor of this war, Charlie Kirk's not around to continue lobbying against the war. In fact, on Newsmax back all the way in June of 2025, shortly before Charlie died, he goes on camera during Operation Midnight Hammer and says, hey, listen, not even the Romans could defeat the Persians. Like they're basically an undefeated empire. No one's ever really defeated the Persians. What makes us think we're any better than anybody else? What makes us think we can do this? They're proud people. They've been around a very long time. They've held this same plot of land. And if you think about it, there's really no way into Iran. It's completely surrounded by mountains. And then you'd have to do a water landing or airdrop people. And I'm telling you, it's nearly impossible. And to hear Charlie Kirk talk about it, he made such brilliant points about why this was a disaster in the making. Contrast that with what they're talking about now, which is like, well, I don't think it's a regime change war, though the regime ultimately did change. And well, we'll just wait and see how Trump handles this. And then we got the CEO of Turning Point who doesn't want to weigh in on it at all. She doesn't want to have anything at all to say to say about it. So now we're seeing why it is that Charlie was issuing so many warnings. Well, all this leads us to the midterms. All this leads us to tonight. There was so much buildup to the 2024 election. Now, you got to go back in time. The 2016 election was monumental. The night that the election started, the night the voting counted. The New York Times had. Hillary Clinton had a 99 percent chance of winning. Nobody, nobody believed Donald Trump had a chance to win that election. And he did. And he did. And then he had sort of what I think was a wasted four years. Then for the 2020 election, we ended up with a big January 6th debacle. Was the election stolen? Did Joe Biden really win it? What happened in the middle of the night when they stopped counting and all the ballots came in? You ended up with everybody at January 6th. There were mass arrests. There were hearings. There was there was an impeachment. So leading up to the 2024 election, there was a lot. There was a whole lot on the table. And TPSA and Charlie Kirk and many other Republican activists, your humble host included, put a lot into that 2024 election. Let's see if we can get this guy one more chance. Let's see if we can get them the second term that they denied him in 2020. In fact, it was such emotional a moment. It was such an emotional moment. At the end of the night, when they finally announced that Pennsylvania was going to go for Donald J. Trump, Charlie Kirk started crying. It looks something like this. We're seeing Fox call it live. Charlie, let me let me give you credit from right here in Pennsylvania. You were the guy you and Tyler convinced me. You say, Cliff, stop door knocking across the country. Go back to your home state. Own Pennsylvania. That will be the deciding factor. I thought you guys were nuts. We knocked 500,000 doors. We deliver Pennsylvania. And now we've got our country back. Let's do this, baby. Oh, let's go. There it is. Clean up. Clean up. All right. You got to get Erica in here to make it about her. She looks like Brigitte doll right there. Huge win. It looked like Brigitte doll sneaking in. She kind of looked like Brigitte doll sneaking in. I'm sorry. She just did. Brigitte doll's hanging out. Yeah, there she is. She looks I mean, that kind of what she looked like sneaking in. No offense, Erica. No offense. No offense. Brigitte doll's very beautiful. Very beautiful. But you end up with Charlie Kirk crying after the twenty twenty four election. I would argue that's really the first night of the midterms. That's the first night of the election cycle leading up to today because everything that took place from that day forward has led us to where we are tonight. And what is the message? What is the message that Republicans are taking into tonight's vote? This is this is how they've been trying to turn us out. We're going to run through some of these. Some of them are pretty shocking, in my opinion, like this tweet tweet from. Benny Johnson. Benny likes Johnson likes the last name. John's big, big fan of the last name. John's. I watched them kill Charlie Kirk and celebrate it. I watched them shoot our president in the head and celebrate it. I watched them kill Trump supporters and celebrate it. They can shoot Charlie and Trump. What will they do to you and your family? This is not a political battle. It's a spiritual one. We're fighting good versus evil. Darkness versus light be on the side of life. God help us. We must win vote. They're leading with the. Path of Charlie Kirk. That's the that's the closing message from a lot of these people will roll through several of these here in a moment. This is the message. It's an emotional appeal. It's basically wheeling his coffin out as a campaign prop. It's gross. In my opinion, it wasn't just Benny Johnson. It was Don Junior gets in on the action. Don Junior says, vote like your lives and the lives of your children depend on it because they do. And he says, vote like the other side will kill you for talking. That's gross. I'm sorry. That's gross. I am. I'm frankly offended by that. I wish Twitter would have kind of demonetized those or or whatever they do or they kind of throttle things not to be outdone. Local gadfly. Robbie Starbuck gets into the looks like a woman in that picture. I promise he's a man. I don't know where you guys got that amazing picture. But that's Robbie Starbuck. And here is his tweet. If you can't find the motivation to vote today. Here it is. Charlie wouldn't have set this election up. You're his vote now. Go use it today for God, for country and for Charlie. Oh, and ignore all the polls. Polls don't vote. People do. Vote. Vote as if you're Charlie. That's his closing message. Nothing about the wonderful things the Trump administration has done. Nothing about the greatness that the Republican Party has brought us over the last two years. How they deserve two more years. How they're just this close to finishing all their campaign promises. No, it's an emotional. It's an emotional poll for a guy who was tragically assassinated in broad daylight in front of 3,000 live people that everybody unfortunately has had to watch take place over and over and over again as you inevitably come across these clips on social media and other places. Caroline Leavitt, the former spokesperson for Donald Trump. Caroline Leavitt gets into the Charlie grift when it comes to voting. But as mothers, as parents, as Americans, we are called to pair our prayer with. Action. And nobody did this better than our dear friend, Charlie Kirk, who spent his life encouraging us to respectfully debate and actively participate in our. our democracy. We do love Charlie. God bless him and God bless Erica. So my fellow Americans on November the 3rd, pair your prayer with action and get out and vote. Vote like the lives of our children and their futures depend on it because they do. President Trump only has two more years of being the leader of our great nation and God bless him, but he needs your support to vote for Republicans up and down the ballot so he can continue his efforts to make America great again. Thank you, Texas, and God bless you. Did you hear that weird message? Vote like your lives and your children's lives depend on it. And then she squished it in there with Charlie Kirk. In other words, I mean, are you telling me my kids are going to be hit by a sniper if I don't vote Republican? That's the closing message of the 2026. midterm elections. It's gross. It is so nasty. No message about what they've done for you. No message about how your life is better now than it was two years ago. No message about all the great things the Trump administration has pulled together. Vote because Charlie died and your kids might die too. I mean, does anyone else feel motivated to ransack the polls at this very moment on the heels of that message? TP action, turning point action actually jumps into the Charlie grip. Vote for Charlie. Charlie's not on the ballot. Charlie's not on the earth. He's passed away. I mean, it's tragic. I'm not making light of it. Charlie's not here. The vote has to be for something else. Charlie's not here. He's not on the ballot. And if this is your closing message and you guys have been so divisive that you have attacked person after person after person for the last year since Charlie died, then now you're telling me to use that as motivation. I'm not buying it. I'm not buying it. I want you to go back and look since we're talking about Charlie. I want you to go back and look at the last election cycle. Let's go back to 2024 and let's look at just a summary tweet Charlie put up on all the things he did in the month leading up to the 2024 election. Let's see all the things he was accomplishing. Here we go. Two Trump rallies, three pastor events with 500 pastors, nine campus events, a prove me wrong tabling event, 61 super chase door knocking and ballot chasing events, 500 volunteer events. I'm not buying it. I'm not buying it. 80,000 volunteer ballot chasers, 80,000 low propensity ballots successfully chased. And then I'm not going to read all this, but just watch as they scroll. We've got a little summary graphic we're going to show you in a second. We've got Monday. I mean, every single day there's Charlie Kirk showing up at events, pitching the election, pitching the Trump administration, making the case, closing the deal, convincing people to get out and vote. This was how he campaigned. This was TPUSA under Charlie Kirk. In fact, we have a midterm map. I mean, we have a, excuse me, an election. Pull this up. This was every, these were the places Charlie Kirk was at the closing days. If you, if you scroll down this, uh, October 8th, he's in Nevada, the University of Nevada, October 11th, he's in Oregon, Oregon State University, uh, October 15th, he's at Northern Arizona University, October 16th, University of Arizona, a 17th Arizona State University, the 18th, he's in the Phoenix area on a bring back your ballot or bring your own ballot, uh, event. Uh, October 21, he has multiple events, Georgia State University, and then he flies over to UNC Chapel Hill. You'll notice he's spending a lot of time in deep battleground states, Georgia, North Carolina, Arizona, Nevada. October 23, he's, uh, in Georgia. Uh, October 24, he's at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, and then he's at a Trump rally that evening. October 29, or 28, excuse me, he's Grand Canyon University in Phoenix. October 29, he's at ASU, Polytechnic campus. October 30, back across the country in North Carolina at East Carolina University in Greenville, North Carolina. And then October 31, he closes at High Point University in North Carolina and then flies across the country to Desert Diamond Arena in Glendale, Arizona. That's how Charlie campaigned the last month leading up to the last election. I point that out for a very specific reason. He was the CEO of Turning Point. That's what we expect. Charlie Kirk, the CEO of Turning Point. Turning Point has turned into a, an organization that exists to get Republicans elected primarily that and, and preach a little Christianity. It started out obviously as a nonpartisan group that, that promoted economic libertarianism, but they're a long way from that. We, we can kind of accept now they exist to endorse people like J.D. Vance to, to get Republicans elected. And that's what he was doing at the closing of the election of 2024. Now we also have a map because I didn't want to leave Erica out. We have a map of all the places Erica has been campaigning. We have a map of all the places Erica has been campaigning the last closing month before this election. There is Erica at her one event at Grand Canyon University, her one event at Grand Canyon University on October, whatever date that was. That's her one event. This is the new CEO. This is the new Turning Point USA. She had to have the job. She knew she could fill it in. Here is a, well, let's hold off on that for a second. This is the new TPUSA. You want to know why Republicans are getting just annihilated probably tonight? Well, look how Charlie Kirk campaigned. Look how his wife who took his place campaigns. He's everywhere at all over the place for the entire month, recklessly, frankly, flying across the country multiple times, sometimes multiple times on the same day. And his wife does one event. I actually have a clip from that event. Do we have that clip? Uh, Erica in the midterm, this is her pitch, um, from Grand Canyon University. How many are you are going to, are planning on voting November 3rd? Good. That's a good amount. Okay. Make it fun. Take your friends. All of you guys should just take a bus and go together. Just massive GCU bus just drops off of a polling station. Take your friend, take the person who tells you voting is pointless and then go buy them Chipotle. That's her closing message. Make it, make it fun. Steal the school bus, I guess. I don't know. Do they let you borrow the school bus for voting event? I maybe, I don't know. Get on a school bus, take some people and buy Chipotle. I'm moved. I'm moved. That's her one campaign stop. And that was her message. That was the pitch. Ladies and gentlemen, that was the campaign pitch. And you wonder, why people say TPUSA is starving to death over there. They are suffering. They're suffering. And here's my question. Are they ever going to be held accountable? Like if, if, if the Republicans go out and just get shellacked in every race they support, is anyone going to look internally at TPUSA and say, maybe we chose poorly. Maybe we chose poorly. Everybody liked to give Charlie all the credit for 2016. Oh, Charlie Kirk, the teenage kid or the guy in his early twenties who got Donald Trump elected. Well, he took all the credit hanging out in the White House. He took all the credit for the election. Now, Pallon around with Don Jr. 2024. You heard it right there. We played a clip earlier. 2024. It was, yeah, Charlie, you're the one you told me to go and hang out in Pennsylvania and knock half a million doors. And that's why we won Charlie. This election's on you. Well, if the election goes poorly tonight, is it also on them? Is the election on them also if it goes poorly because they were not in the White House arguing against further involvement in Iran because they've not been involved in the White House? Is the election on them also if it goes poorly because they've not been involved in the White House arguing against further involvement in Iran because they've not been involved in the White House? Is the election on them also if it goes poorly tonight? happens. We'll keep fighting. Kind of sounds like Defeat. Kind of sounds like she's admitting defeat the day before the election. And then just today she puts, pray, show up, pray, vote, pray. And, of course, quote, tweets her husband, don't ever vote for a Democrat. So that's kind of her closing message. All right. Is there anybody else out there with any kind of other closing message? We've gotten Candace Owens is evil and she's the reason that Republicans might lose. We've gotten vote because Charlie Kirk died. Weird message, but I'll allow it. Maybe check in on Stephen Crowder. Maybe he has a little more positive message. He's he kind of fancies himself as a political expert. Fighting the left. Here's the left playbook in this election. Class warfare. Character assassinate. And they'll walk back woke. Just look at Mamdani and El-Sayed. These people don't. Tallarico is as bad as it gets. I need to see the incredible mobilization from the Duggars, the Candace Owens. The people out there are saying you should sit this one out. Are you done with Donald Trump? He's been a chronic disappointment. He's threatening to blow up power plants and bridges, hurting civilians. There will be nothing like it. Open the f***ing straight, you crazy bastards, or you'll be living in hell. Just watch. To write that is, it's diabolical. Are we really going to be the Gestapo? Where's your papers? Is that what we've come to? Our Christian leaders are still going to try to protect that and justify that. How dare they? The picture of politics in America is going to look very differently because of his actions. People who advise you. People who advise you to sit it out. They don't despise the left in the way that the people who refuse to sit this out do. So don't sit it out. Get out and vote. It's Candace's fault. That's what I got from that. She's very powerful. Very powerful for a nine-month pregnant woman who's a mother of four who broadcasts an internet show from her basement. Very, very powerful. I want to do one more clip. I'm going to skip the trailer. This is a Trump clip. I want to do one more clip, and then we'll close it out with a photo here of what I think best summarizes the disaster that could face Republicans tonight. This clip is what I would say is the new face of the GOP. You wonder why the GOP is struggling so much. Maybe your choice of spoke people is part of the problem. But we have a new face of the GOP, and we have a closing message from our friend Scott Pressler. Now, I have a message to the American people. I realize that we haven't accomplished everything within two years. That's why we're out here asking for another two. Make President Trump a four-year president. Make sure that the job that we gave him in 2024, he can accomplish and use all four years to get it done. That means controlling the House of Representatives. That means keeping the United States Senate. And here in Pennsylvania, there's your clock. That's our closing message. Are you as motivated as I am? He said the Trump administration has not gotten everything accomplished they wanted to get accomplished. Our friends Beavis and Butthead over at the Charlie Kirk Show made for us a whiteboard. They made for us a whiteboard that had a list of all what they claim are the 20 Trump campaign promises. I would dispute that, but I'm going to take it at face value because I think it's terrible enough as it is. They put up 20 campaign promises, and their claim is. That he kept 16 of them, so we should give him more Republican support to finish, I guess, the job. But here is that whiteboard that Blake Neff put together. Notice the blue X's. Now, I have a problem with the fact that the X's are blue and the check marks are red. I have a real problem with that, but I'm willing to let it go. Take a look at the blue X's. All right, just don't worry about any of the red check marks. You walk into the voting booth and you think of the following four things. He did not deliver on inflation, meaning inflation's out of control. He did not deliver on restoring peace, meaning war is boiling. War is raging around the globe. He did not secure the elections, meaning when you walk in, you don't know that your vote's going to count. You don't know that somebody else's vote isn't going to count more than once. You don't know that the machine's going to be hacked. You don't know that anybody's checked the ID of anybody. Not secured the elections. And finally, did not unite America. We're as divided as ever. I would argue. I would argue he didn't even unite the Republican Party. He didn't even unite the conservatives. Just take those four. That's the closing message of the Republican Party. Charlie died and give him more time to not fight inflation, restore peace, secure elections, or unite America. There it is. I mean, that's your closing message. That's your closing message. I'm not telling people to vote for it. I never tell people to vote for it. I used to, but I got out of that. I used to, but I got out of that business after Trump burned me two years ago. I'm never going to tell anyone who to vote for ever again. So I'm not going to tell you who to vote for or even whether to vote. But I'll close this way. I'm not real ignited by these messages. If I was a campaign consultant and someone came to me and they said, these are the messages you need to take to the American public. You need to close with Scott Pressler begging to give Trump two more years and then have him put up Blake Neff's whiteboard showing that the world is ready to vote. Raging on, on, on fire and war. Inflation's out of control. The elections aren't secure and nobody's divided. Everybody's divided. Yeah, that'll work. I'll be back in a second with some of your comments. Let's take an ad break.

We've got some comments from today. Stacy Chapman writes. Hi. B-b-b-b-b-b-b Baron. What are your thoughts on DeSantis coming out against Trump and Republicans who are gaslighting people about the war and not the war not causing an affordability problem. I'm going to ask you a question. conflict to a conclusion. dissolution because I can tell you he's been advising. I think you've probably seen the reports where there are people have told them this is going to drag on for the rest of his presidency. If it drags on for the rest of his presidency, it's going to be devastating to his ability to get anything done. And it is going to be very, very difficult for Republicans in the next cycle. Gosh, I wish I could trust Ron DeSantis. He always says all the right things. I don't know if he can be trusted or not. I used to trust Donald Trump. He always said all the right things as well. Look, to answer your question, what are my thoughts on it? He's exactly right. He's exactly right. You cannot keep lying to these people all the time. You cannot tell people, oh, your grocery bill's fine. No, it's not. No, it's not. I go to the grocery store. What used to be $100 is now $200. That's not 6% inflation or 3% inflation. It's like doubled. It's doubled. What used to be $200 is now $400. And that just is crushing people. It's just absolutely crushing people. It's going to eventually crush the economy. So Ron DeSantis is right. Stop gaslighting people. We can drive by and look at the gas station signs. We know how much it used to cost to fill up a truck and how much it costs to fill up a truck now. You know how much, say you even drive a little car, a little like Mazda Miata. We know how much it used to cost to fill up a Mazda Miata. It's double. It's double. I'm sorry. It just is. It just is. Aluminum Unicorn writes, someone wise once told me never trust a company who blames their customers for missing sales. I feel like ours are going to do this. Yeah. I am really interested to see how they handle this in the next week. If things go the way we expect. Now, I will say this. If things don't go the way we expect, I will start to believe the conspiracy theory that all the previous elections were being stolen in Venezuela because we stole Venezuela's president. And if these elections don't go the way we expect this time, I'm going to have some serious, serious concerns about the safety of American elections. Maybe that's why they wouldn't pass the SAVE Act. I don't know. Heather writes, I believe we can agree on the spectrum of our humble hosts. Hoodie colors should now serve to gauge each episode's gravity and severity while the principal is on leave from battle buns to breakthrough black. Go Max. I will admit the black was a conscious choice for two reasons. One was I wore white yesterday and I wore black today. They're just, you know, next in the rotation. Second reason is it was, I mean, look, I don't shy away from the label black pill all that much. I don't shy away from it. Right now, I'm a little nihilistic about the prospects of the Republican Party being able to turn this around. I just am. I just am. I'm very nihilistic about TPSA playing any role in the Republican Party being able to turn it around. You guys want us to trust you in the future. Act like you told us you would act when we voted for you. Act like it. Do the things you said you would do and be honest about it. Be honest about it. Jay Galt, the Republican Party now sounds like Hillary Clinton when she lost back in 2016. Yeah, a little bit, a little bit. Uh, privilege. That's your name. Privileged white trash. I'm not calling her white trash. Ladies and gentlemen, that's her name. Privileged white trash, uh, to save face. They could have had Erica Kirk armchair CEO from her home as discussed publicly and found and found college debaters to be the face instead of running around making a mockery of what he built, which is oddly being allowed. Hey, listen, we did Erica Kirk a solid tonight. We actually had two clips of Erica Kirk pulled up ready to go. And one of them was longer than the other. And honestly, it made her look so bad. We, we didn't run it. I mean, that's just a fact. It's, it's, it's sad when I'm the one saving her from herself. Uh, I've, I've been a little bit of an Erica Kirk critic over the last year. I'll be honest with you. Well, the last nine months or so. And tonight we, we pulled one of the clips cause she looks so bad. It was the same speech, but she looked terrible. She just looked terrible and absolutely unprepared person, a very unserious person. I will just say that she's unserious. She's unserious for that role. Like you wouldn't want me to be a center in the NBA. I'm not going to be a center for the Lakers, right? I'm six feet tall. I cannot bang with these seven foot four guys in the post for the Los Angeles Lakers. There's some people who just aren't born to be in certain roles. My friend, she is not born to be in that role. I'm sorry. She just not, which is why we pulled that clip because she looked terrible. Uh, Vanjite from a fan from Japan, Jeffrey Epstein files got me into us politics. Not a Charlie Kirk fan, but his death was sketchy, possibly tied to something bigger. U S actions affect us all. As a parent, I feel war. I fear war and oligarchs sacrificing lives for power justice for Charlie Kirk peace above all. Right. It's just King. Indeed. I get a little bit of a hard time from people cause I'm a little bit of a pacifist, honestly, unless people rolling up on American shores, I really don't want to get involved. And people kind of give me a hard time about that. But I'm a little bit of a pacifist. I'm a little bit of a pacifist. You know, depending on what happens in the next few weeks, I think more people might start seeing that my way. We've been at war basically in the middle East for 35 years. We've basically been at war in the middle East for 35 years. There, there are people who are 40 years old right now who were five when we went to war in the middle East. And we've basically been at war in the middle East, uh, Iraq, Somalia, uh, Afghanistan, Iraq, again, uh, Lebanon, Syria, Israel. I mean, it's just all over. It's nonstop. It's nonstop. And I think people are getting sick and tired of it. And I think if, if they really try to ramp this thing up again, people are, I think more people are going to don black hoodies, if not pirate flags and start causing, causing chaos. So I agree with you. I agree with you. Uh, Lucy Williams, thank you for giving us hope for inspiring people to be better and for giving people the confidence to stand up for what's right. Newly LLB graduate. Oh, you must be from overseas. LLB. That's how the, uh, the Commonwealth countries, that's the law degree they hand out. Congratulations, by the way. I hope you, uh, I hope you put it to good use and don't go serve these corporate overlords who make our lives hell. It's okay. If you do, I understand the money's a big draw. I won't blame you. I won't blame you, but a man can hope, a man can hope. Uh, Zammett, even Mr. And Mr. McCrone, even Mr. And Mr. McCrone McCrone agree. It was, Candace's fault. Yes. Yes, they do. Yet. Yes, he does. It's okay. It's okay. It's okay. Hey, listen, I don't mind using the Brigitte doll prop anymore after Erica Kirk played the Brigitte doll prop in that clip. I'm fine with it at this point that you're now fair game girl. Boy, uh, who wrote in Candace's baby for office? And why didn't I think of it sooner? Who wrote in Candace's baby for office? Well, you guys don't know the name. You have to have a name to write somebody in. You can't write in Candace's baby, but you know, we'll see. And the baby has to be born first. You can't, I can't hold office. If you're not born, uh, Jack splat red versus blue is all BS. They're all rotten peas from the same rotten pod. BB has been trying to get the U S in a war against Iran for decades. No president ever bowed to him on that until Trump, a Republican not a Democrat. Well, I tend to agree with you. I hear a lot of people say there's no, these people have said there's no difference between Republicans and Democrats. I mean, on a few shiny issues there are, um, but is either party seriously offering you a solution to get out of debt? Is either party seriously offering you a solution to stop these middle Eastern wars that have been raging for now three and a half decades and look to be getting ready to ramp up again for potentially years longer? I mean, is anybody offering you any sincere solutions to any of these actual problems to grocery prices, gas prices? No, no. In that sense, there's not a dime's worth of difference between them. Sorry. Uh, don't forget about the merch over at candaceowens.com. You can get the new Christmas merch, got new Christmas merch.

Um, actually heard Dre dossier talking about the hot dog. She weighed in on the hot dog sandwich debate. And I was like, look, I can't get involved, girl. You got, you're on your own. You're on your own. Uh, here's the Christmas collection. We've got some, uh, Christmas ornaments and, uh, they kind of scroll down there. We don't know, no, but we know. I told my priest I would chill. My wife has that sweatshirt. She wears it a lot. Although she doesn't need it. She's, she's pretty chill. She probably bought it.
