[00:02:42]  President Donald Trump won the debate and he might have won the election tonight.
[00:02:46]  I tell you, I just want to say I was so proud of the president tonight.
[00:02:50]  Who would have thought, if you were kind of doing the betting odds, that Trump would do the least interrupting of everyone on stage?
[00:02:59]  Joe Biden interrupted Donald Trump at least 10 plus times.
[00:03:03]  Kristen Welker not just made it a habit, she made it a constant and continual interruption of Donald Trump.
[00:03:11]  And President Trump handled himself so unbelievably well.
[00:03:15]  So let's go kind of piece by piece and bit by bit through the entire debate.
[00:03:21]  Let's start at the end.
[00:03:22]  President Donald Trump put Joe Biden on notice.
[00:03:26]  And probably the most substantive takeaway from this entire debate is when Joe Biden started a short circuit.
[00:03:33]  You can see Joe Biden around minute 45, minute 50.
[00:03:36]  All of a sudden, whatever they injected into him previously was starting to fade out.
[00:03:41]  And he was starting to slur words.
[00:03:43]  He called the proud boys the poor boys.
[00:03:45]  And one of the most bizarre moments, I think, in debate history is when he calls Donald Trump Abraham Lincoln.
[00:03:52]  And I love the way that President Trump handled this.
[00:03:55]  He says, Abraham Lincoln, where did that come from?
[00:03:58]  And it really kind of went to show that Joe Biden is not capable to become president of the United States, not at all whatsoever.
[00:04:07]  But then towards the end of the debate, President Trump had this repeated phrase that I think was so effective.
[00:04:15]  All talk, no action.
[00:04:17]  By being all talk, no action, Joe Biden kept on talking about what he was going to do, what he was trying to fix.
[00:04:25]  He's been in Washington, D.C. for 47 years.
[00:04:30]  President Donald Trump pinpointing Joe Biden on the fact that he is now acting as if he's an outsider.
[00:04:37]  Joe Biden's acting like he's an outsider and a challenger is so incredibly deceiving and misleading.
[00:04:44]  And Donald Trump summarized it the best.
[00:04:46]  I ran because of you.
[00:04:49]  Right there.
[00:04:50]  That framing is a home run grand slam winner.
[00:04:54]  There were five moments of the debate, more or less, where Donald Trump was able to make a broader, more important, truthful point about what was really happening in the debate and in this presidential election.
[00:05:06]  That was one of them.
[00:05:07]  Joe, I wouldn't have run if you would have done a good job.
[00:05:11]  I think people really believe this because Donald Trump, in some ways, is a non-political politician.
[00:05:17]  He was never an ideologue.
[00:05:19]  If Donald Trump thought that the country was being run wonderfully and things were going in the right direction and things were trending beautifully, Donald Trump never would have run for the presidency and challenged the orthodoxy on immigration, on trade, and on some of these very controversial issues that the Republican Party had almost pre-existing dogmatic viewpoints on.
[00:05:41]  I wouldn't have run, Joe, if you would have done your job.
[00:05:44]  All talk, no action.
[00:05:45]  And that is the baseline of the Democrat Party.
[00:05:50]  The Democrat Party and Joe Biden is we are going to represent positions one way, despite never actually delivering them for the last couple generations.
[00:06:01]  So for those of you just joining, I want to say again, Donald Trump won tonight.

[00:06:27]  So welcome to all of you that are kind of pouring in.
[00:06:30]  Donald Trump won the debate.
[00:06:33]  So President Trump, from a just non-substantive observation, his style tonight was awesome.
[00:06:41]  He was happier, more lighthearted.
[00:06:45]  He smiled.
[00:06:46]  He laughed.
[00:06:47]  He was almost making fun of Joe Biden's meandering.
[00:06:51]  And Joe Biden was bitter.
[00:06:53]  He was angry.
[00:06:55]  Joe Biden was just old man screaming at the cloud, confusing everything as if he's saying, why are you doing so well tonight?
[00:07:03]  And why are you making my job so difficult?
[00:07:05]  I think it was all summarized in one moment when President, they were talking about China.
[00:07:13]  And this is something that always irritates me.
[00:07:15]  And it is called a politician's sleight of hand.
[00:07:20]  You're talking about something in a debate, and then all of a sudden, the politician realizes that the topic that is being discussed is unfavorable to the candidate.
[00:07:30]  So instead of actually talking about the topic, they completely ignore it and they pivot to the camera and they talk about people around the kitchen table.
[00:07:38]  How many times have you seen this the last 10 or 15 years?
[00:07:41]  Instead of actually addressing what the topic was, they do almost like a Houdini sleight of hand.
[00:07:46]  And next thing you know, we're talking about people around a kitchen table.
[00:07:49]  And yeah, it's emotional.
[00:07:50]  And President Trump called BS on this decades-old sleight-of-hand political trick.
[00:07:59]  So we're talking about China.
[00:08:00]  We're having this conversation, hopefully of substance, of how to hold China accountable.
[00:08:04]  And Joe Biden all of a sudden realizes he's losing.
[00:08:07]  He's like, that's right.
[00:08:08]  What did I do for the last 47 years?
[00:08:09]  I look to the camera.
[00:08:10]  Look at me.
[00:08:11]  You know what's going on.
[00:08:12]  Kitchen table.
[00:08:13]  Someone's missing.
[00:08:14]  And I'm not minimizing the loss, but Joe Biden completely sidestepped it.
[00:08:18]  And Donald Trump was perfect in this moment because it exposed the fraud of the political class.
[00:08:26]  He turned to Joe Biden and he said, that is such a political politician answer.
[00:08:33]  And he said this: I am not a politician.
[00:08:38]  I am not a politician.
[00:08:39]  I'm not one of you.
[00:08:41]  And despite, and you can say whatever you want about Trump's tone or whatever, you can't make the argument that tonight that Donald Trump was rude.
[00:08:51]  You can't say Donald Trump was inconsiderate.
[00:08:53]  Donald Trump was measured.
[00:08:55]  Donald Trump was under control.
[00:08:57]  He was charming.
[00:08:57]  And it was Joe Biden that was interrupting Donald Trump tonight.
[00:09:01]  It was Joe Biden that was bitter and angry because Joe Biden lost to the debate.
[00:09:05]  Joe Biden knows that his son is under federal investigation from the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
[00:09:10]  Joe Biden knows that his former business ally, he said, Tony, look at his name.
[00:09:15]  I don't want to mispronounce his name.
[00:09:16]  I think it's Tony B, right?
[00:09:18]  Berlowski.
[00:09:19]  No offense if I mispronounce his name.
[00:09:22]  Two hours before the debate says that I met with him in a hotel and we were talking about Chinese business dealings.
[00:09:28]  If I was Joe Biden, I wouldn't be in a good mood either.
[00:09:31]  And there was a real policy breakthrough towards the end of the debate.
[00:09:35]  As Joe Biden's facade was fading away, as Joe Biden's kind of mirage was starting to be exposed, Joe Biden forgot whether or not he was in a Democrat primary debate or a presidential debate.
[00:09:49]  He was short-circuiting.
[00:09:50]  He was forgetting about all the inputs that were put into his computer processor.
[00:09:54]  He was low on battery life.
[00:09:56]  The computer was overheating.
[00:09:57]  The flashlight was running out.
[00:09:59]  He was flickering and he was getting confused.
[00:10:01]  And he said, oh, I'll phase out fossil fuels.
[00:10:03]  And Donald Trump handled this so brilliantly.
[00:10:06]  It was not what Donald Trump said.
[00:10:08]  It's what he did off camera, where Donald Trump all of a sudden clenched his lips and said, ooh, that's interesting.
[00:10:13]  Tell me more.
[00:10:14]  He said, I didn't know that.
[00:10:15]  And then Joe Biden said it again.
[00:10:16]  He said, yeah, we'll phase it out.
[00:10:19]  Then again, Joe Biden probably realized, oh, wait, I'm not debating Bernie Sanders.
[00:10:23]  I'm not debating Kamala Harris.
[00:10:24]  This is Donald Trump.
[00:10:25]  And all of a sudden, all of his circuitry overheated.
[00:10:28]  And then, in my opinion, that should make Joe Biden lose the election right there.
[00:10:34]  Despite all of his previous promises to abolish fracking, despite all of his previous promises to destroy oil and gas, right there, with tens of millions Americans watching in Texas, in Arizona, in Pennsylvania and Ohio, Joe Biden made a pledge that fossil fuels and oil and natural gas will one day soon be gone.
[00:10:58]  And Donald Trump called him out on that so brilliantly.
[00:11:03]  And throughout the evening, you started to see Joe Biden deteriorate and Donald Trump gain in energy and gain in stamina.
[00:11:11]  Joe Biden's physical posture throughout the evening became one as he was almost incapable of standing upright after 70 minutes, after 80 minutes.
[00:11:20]  And I feel very bad for Joe Biden.
[00:11:23]  I have sympathy for him as far as a human being, but not as a presidential candidate.
[00:11:29]  He is not worthy.
[00:11:31]  Running for president is not a sympathy contest, okay?
[00:11:34]  You're not running for the president of the villages.
[00:11:36]  Okay, we're not waiting for visiting angels to come by and pick this guy up.

=== Trump Dominates Race Topic Discussion (05:03) ===

[00:11:41]  This is the presidency of the United States.
[00:11:43]  We're talking world peace.
[00:11:44]  We're talking trade deals.
[00:11:45]  We're talking tough stuff.
[00:11:47]  You got to remember people's names.
[00:11:48]  You can't confuse proud boys with poor boys and call the guy you're debating Abraham Lincoln.
[00:11:52]  Joe, I knew you were in the room when Abraham Lincoln was writing the Emancipation Proclamation, but that wasn't Abraham Lincoln.
[00:12:00]  And Joe Biden exposed tonight that he was uncapable mentally, physically, and also policy-wise to become president of the United States.
[00:12:07]  So let's get into some of those other points here.
[00:12:10]  So I think President Donald Trump, one of the strongest points was when this topic of race came up.
[00:12:16]  Now, let me be very clear.
[00:12:17]  America is the least racist country ever to exist in the history of the world.
[00:12:21]  This hyper-fixation on race from the activist media, from the chattering class, from the pundits, the politicians, and the prognosticators only makes America focus more on things that do not matter.
[00:12:31]  Race means nothing to me, and it shouldn't mean anything to you.
[00:12:33]  This idea of race only divides people based on skin color.
[00:12:37]  The hyperracialization of America will bring us to a place where we are divided, not united.
[00:12:42]  However, I think President Donald Trump handled it well.
[00:12:44]  Kristen Welker, some people are praising her.
[00:12:47]  I thought she was awful.
[00:12:48]  She was interrupting Donald Trump more than Donald Trump interrupted Joe Biden in the first debate.
[00:12:52]  She made Chris Wallace look like a decent, independent moderator.
[00:12:56]  I mean, how many times did she interrupt Joe Biden?
[00:12:59]  And I love how Donald Trump handled it.
[00:13:00]  Excuse me.
[00:13:02]  Never getting too fierce, never getting too excited, but instead holding the line and really pushing back against, was it Kirsten or Kristen?
[00:13:12]  I think it's Kirsten, Kristen, Kristen, Kristen's constant attacks against Donald Trump.
[00:13:20]  So when Kristen Welker comes out and says, many parents have to have a talk, that regardless of what you do based on skin color, you might be pulled over in this country.
[00:13:30]  Let me do the Joe Biden thing, okay?
[00:13:33]  For those of you watching at home around your kitchen table, this is a pathological lie.
[00:13:38]  There is no evidence at all whatsoever that any sort of systemic treatment from police, from people in authority, goes against people simply and solely based on their skin color.
[00:13:49]  Just look at the Obama Department of Justice report where they looked into 400 police departments across the country and found zero evidence of widespread institutional or systemic racial bias with police officers across the country.
[00:14:02]  Zero, nothing.
[00:14:03]  In fact, what they did find is that police officers were less likely to engage with deadly and lethal force with people of color, that they were more likely to actually engage with that force with white people.
[00:14:14]  And so for Kristen Welker to say, well, some people have to have the talk, you're lying to your kids if you're having the talk.
[00:14:20]  Whatever talk that might be about how racist America is, the talk you should have, is that only in America, not only in other country in the world, are this many people with this many different languages and backgrounds and races able to get along so well in harmony and live decent lives.
[00:14:36]  We are systemically unracist.
[00:14:38]  That was not the time for President Donald Trump to pick that fight.
[00:14:40]  That's what we're doing here tonight.
[00:14:42]  That's a longer-term cultural battle.
[00:14:43]  This is all about President Trump winning the election, and we like it or not.
[00:14:47]  That's not the time for him to go political melee on it.
[00:14:49]  That's for us to clear it up so that nonsense never happens again.
[00:14:53]  President Trump handled it great.
[00:14:54]  He said, yes, I feel that sympathy.
[00:14:56]  I feel the pain.
[00:14:57]  He also zeroed in on Joe Biden's mistreatment of the black community.
[00:15:02]  Joe Biden, every time Joe Biden got a little upset, he kept on saying, come on, man.
[00:15:07]  What a poor and awful excuse for Joe Biden, the guy who authored the Clinton crime bill, who eulogized the KKK segregationists, who said you can't walk into a 7-Eleven without a slight Indian accent.
[00:15:20]  And the one thing I wish President Trump would have said, but he got an A-plus grand slam home run tonight, is, hey, Joe, 50 Cent just endorsed me.
[00:15:28]  Do you think he's black?
[00:15:30]  I wish he would have said that.
[00:15:31]  It would have been perfect because Joe Biden said, if you do not vote for me, you ain't black.
[00:15:38]  Joe Biden's own words.
[00:15:41]  With that being said, President Donald Trump still handled the racial issue perfect.
[00:15:44]  T1, 2, 3, 4, 5 on policy, policy, policy, policy, historical black college universities, opportunity zones, criminal justice reforms, first step act, lowest ever black unemployment, lowest ever black poverty rate, and singles out by name Senator Tim Scott, black senator from South Carolina.
[00:15:58]  Phenomenal.
[00:15:59]  President Donald Trump gets a 10 out of 10 in how he handled that.
[00:16:05]  In our fast-paced world, it's time to make reading a priority.
[00:16:08]  At least it used to be.
[00:16:09]  A new app called Thinker, you guys have heard me talk about it, thinker.org slash Charlie, T-H-I-N-K-R, has solved that problem by summarizing the key ideas from new and noteworthy fiction, giving you access to an entire library of great books in bite-sized form.
[00:16:21]  Reader listened to hundreds of titles in a matter of minutes, including old classics like Dale Carnegie's How to Win Friends and Influence People.

=== Bloomberg Funding and Border Cages (15:14) ===

[00:16:44]  Immigration.
[00:16:45]  This very well could have been a difficult topic for Donald Trump.
[00:16:48]  I'm being very honest with you.
[00:16:50]  Whoever prepped Donald Trump deserves a parade because they did really well tonight.
[00:16:55]  Because the way he handled the immigration question was phenomenal.
[00:16:59]  Six times, Donald Trump asked, who built the cages?
[00:17:02]  Who built the cages?
[00:17:04]  Who built the cages?
[00:17:05]  Obama built the cages, and he's exactly right.
[00:17:07]  And they ended that awful policy.
[00:17:10]  With that, we are building the wall, popular issue to win the state of Arizona.
[00:17:14]  He talked about legal immigration, win for swing and suburban voters.
[00:17:18]  And he also went after catch and release, widely unpopular and an awful policy.
[00:17:23]  And he played into the factual reality, but not every single person that gains illegal entry into our country is coming for the best intentions and purposes.
[00:17:32]  And that is something that is a widely accepted fact of people in Arizona and Texas, and it's not rooted in hate.
[00:17:38]  It's not rooted in xenophobia.
[00:17:40]  It's rooted in the correct observation of when you have an open border and a porous border, you're going to also have problems with it.
[00:17:47]  The president pinpointing Joe Biden on the cage creation was awesome, saying it six times.
[00:17:53]  Who built the cages, Joe?
[00:17:55]  Who built them?
[00:17:56]  Didn't you guys build these cages?
[00:17:57]  And Joe Biden just sputtered because remember, Joe Biden is nothing more than a manifestation of a political computer program that was uploaded into his hard drive the morning of and the days before.
[00:18:08]  That's why he has to call a lid.
[00:18:09]  They have to upload all this stuff.
[00:18:10]  Joe Biden is like the Matrix, right?
[00:18:13]  You plug in, and then you get some sort of fake facade of whatever person, the kind of the coder, what do they call that guy?
[00:18:19]  Morpheus was the guy, no, in the Matrix.
[00:18:21]  Anyway, the techie guy in the first one.
[00:18:24]  Anyway, they had a really good name for him.
[00:18:26]  That's who Joe Biden is.
[00:18:28]  Joe Biden is nothing more than a series of code like The Matrix.
[00:18:31]  It's a total upload.
[00:18:33]  And just like in The Matrix, there was a short circuit.
[00:18:36]  All of a sudden, there was something that wasn't supposed to happen.
[00:18:39]  You might call it an agent to use the Matrix example, probably enough of the Matrix example.
[00:18:43]  But he didn't know how to deal with it, built the cages.
[00:18:46]  I don't have heart.
[00:18:47]  I don't have my, I don't have, I wasn't prepared for this, so he just sputters out.
[00:18:52]  And so Joe Biden was not prepared for it because Joe Biden's responsible for it.
[00:18:58]  Do you know why Joe Biden didn't care about kids in cages?
[00:19:02]  Because while there were kids in cages in the southern border, number one, the activists didn't care about it.
[00:19:06]  Activist media did not care about it.
[00:19:08]  Number two, he was probably in Ukraine demanding for a prosecutor to be fired.
[00:19:13]  That's why.
[00:19:14]  Joe Biden spent 14 trips to Ukraine and only did a couple to the southern border.
[00:19:21]  So the question then is, why exactly was Joe Biden more interested in visiting Kiev than our southern border?
[00:19:30]  Because the southern border wasn't paying his son $83,000 a month.
[00:19:35]  Now, I hate to fact check the president.
[00:19:37]  I think it was $83,000 a month on $183,000 a month.
[00:19:41]  Understandable mixture of amounts.
[00:19:44]  And again, people are going to say, he lied.
[00:19:46]  Okay, let's be very clear what a lie is, okay?
[00:19:48]  A lie is not misspeaking.
[00:19:50]  So they say on the New York Times, Trump has said 20,000 lies.
[00:19:53]  That's completely untrue.
[00:19:54]  He sometimes confuses names and dates.
[00:19:57]  That's not lying, okay?
[00:19:59]  That's misspeaking or misremembering.
[00:20:01]  A lie is this.
[00:20:03]  I've never been involved in my son's foreign business dealings.
[00:20:06]  That's a lie.
[00:20:08]  My son has never done anything improper when it comes to burisma.
[00:20:12]  That's a lie.
[00:20:13]  I've never said I wanted to ban fracking.
[00:20:15]  That's a lie.
[00:20:16]  So there's a difference between misspeaking, like Joe Biden saying poor boys and proud boys.
[00:20:20]  I'm not saying Joe Biden's a liar.
[00:20:22]  I just say he's a fool, versus Joe Biden saying banning fracking and saying that he doesn't want national health care, socialized health care.
[00:20:30]  And so then came Donald Trump's terrific, perfect handling of the Hunter Biden issue.
[00:20:37]  Do you know why?
[00:20:38]  And I'm not going to take credit for it because a lot of people were saying this, but we also did a whole thing on this.
[00:20:43]  Donald Trump, in my recollection, I can be fact-checked on this.
[00:20:47]  And if he did it, he only did it once.
[00:20:48]  He never said the word Hunter.
[00:20:50]  Phenomenal.
[00:20:51]  It's well done, Donald.
[00:20:53]  Well done, Mr. President, because it's not about Hunter Biden.
[00:20:57]  It's about Joe.
[00:20:58]  He said your son.
[00:21:00]  He said, your brother, but he never said Hunter.
[00:21:03]  And with that, he took the piece of advice that we publicly offered that you do not want to make it about the son.
[00:21:10]  And the president stopped himself short.
[00:21:11]  And your son got discharged from the military.
[00:21:13]  Not going to get into that.
[00:21:14]  Perfect.
[00:21:16]  Those were the wise restraints that kept Donald Trump towards victory.
[00:21:20]  Because kind of those no-go zones, you start going there in these two minutes, all of a sudden you're talking about crack cocaine and having nine grandkids instead of eight grandkids.
[00:21:28]  And you got Maury coming up there and you are the father and you're in Arkansas and it's a complete disaster.
[00:21:34]  Next thing you know it, you're getting interrupted.
[00:21:35]  And Trump stopped himself and proceeded.
[00:21:39]  And he focused on most of the good stuff from the emails and the laptop.
[00:21:45]  And President Trump was in such a plus form when he said, Are you the big man, Joe?
[00:21:53]  Because I think you're the big man.
[00:21:55]  Are you sure you're not the big man?
[00:21:57]  Because it says 10% for the big man.
[00:21:59]  And Joe didn't know how to react to it.
[00:22:01]  Joe was maybe nervous that what could be said to him in a presidential debate could be held against him in a deposition by the Federal Bureau of Investigation or an interrogation, not even a deposition, but an interrogation by FBI agents.
[00:22:15]  Donald Trump talked about the $3.5 million wire from the Moscow's wife mayor.
[00:22:20]  That's not even the most incriminating thing that we found out in the last couple of days, though.
[00:22:24]  Instead, what we found out is that Joe Biden met with Burisma officials in the United States.
[00:22:29]  What we found out is that Joe Biden, with Hunter Biden, wanted a $5 million no-interest loan from China.
[00:22:36]  He met with Kazakhstani officials.
[00:22:39]  And despite Joe Biden saying, I have no influence, no dealings whatsoever, that he sat down with all of these business associates and was getting cut in on the deals.
[00:22:53]  And President Donald Trump, 10 out of 10, we said this in our debate prep.
[00:22:57]  Why do you have all these houses all over the place on a senator's salary?
[00:23:01]  Perfect.
[00:23:03]  And I think what was so effective about how President Trump handled the Hunter Biden issue is that I think it made the audience not necessarily convinced, but curious.
[00:23:15]  And that's exactly what President Trump had to do tonight.
[00:23:18]  In a debate format, you're not going to convince people of the Hunter Biden deal.
[00:23:22]  But I think it definitely made people curious to want to find more.
[00:23:26]  And guess what?
[00:23:27]  When people look into this, it's really bad.
[00:23:30]  And this is not conservative popcorn.
[00:23:32]  Okay, this is not stuff that you're just going to chat in between 12 a.m. and 3 a.m.
[00:23:37]  This is a legitimate political scandal, the likes of which we have not seen.
[00:23:43]  And what is Joe Biden's response?
[00:23:45]  Well, this is just the Russia dealings.
[00:23:49]  And President Trump's response was perfect.
[00:23:52]  Like, oh, okay, the laptop is from Russia now.
[00:23:55]  Perfect.
[00:23:56]  Instead, what President Trump did in the first debate was, you're a criminal.
[00:24:00]  Everyone that you're related to is a criminal.
[00:24:02]  And it's a disaster.
[00:24:04]  The lighter touch.
[00:24:06]  Remember, a calmly delivered word turns away wrath.
[00:24:10]  And that was perfectly done by President Trump.
[00:24:12]  Who was the angrier person tonight?
[00:24:15]  For all of the stereotypes they throw at Donald Trump.
[00:24:19]  He's angry.
[00:24:20]  He's this.
[00:24:20]  He's that.
[00:24:21]  Joe Biden was a bitter, angry old man tonight because he knows that his son might go to jail, that he's losing this election, that Republicans are winning early voting.
[00:24:32]  And Joe Biden didn't start angry.
[00:24:34]  But after 30 minutes, after all of his little canned one-liners that they programmed into him the last four days while he had an ice pack on his head because he had to get up and do one thing, he had to just cool off.
[00:24:45]  It was a tough day.
[00:24:48]  He had to go do a radio interview.
[00:24:50]  After 30 minutes, Joe Biden realized Donald Trump was not getting frazzled or phased tonight.
[00:24:56]  And that made Joe Biden angry.
[00:24:58]  And that made Joe Biden say things he otherwise wouldn't have said, like, I'm going to destroy oil and gas in this country, which he said at the end of this debate.
[00:25:05]  Oh, well, we're going to phase it out.
[00:25:07]  This is just a moment in time.
[00:25:09]  And Donald Trump said, ooh, that's interesting.
[00:25:11]  Thank you, Joe, for educating 70 million people about how you're going to get rid of oil and gas.

[00:25:45]  So when President Trump summarized that, he said, your whole family was going around the world collecting money like a vacuum.
[00:25:52]  It's perfectly said.
[00:25:53]  And you want to talk about foreign entanglements?
[00:25:56]  This is the one thing that really bothered me.
[00:25:57]  I wish the president would have pushed further.
[00:25:59]  He should have said, Joe or Kristen, can you point to one foreign policy decision that I have made that has ever been in the last four years anywhere in any way conflicted or contradictory to the benefit of the United States of America?
[00:26:14]  Can you point to one thing?
[00:26:16]  And one thing I regret for tonight, one thing, Donald Trump still did not talk about the Israel-UAE peace deal.
[00:26:24]  Ah, I have to say that was probably, if I had to just give a little bit of feedback to a total home run, grand slam, bases loaded, two outs, down by three, World Series, game seven, Donald Trump delivers.
[00:26:35]  All the lights are on.
[00:26:36]  Joe Biden, angry, bitter old man.
[00:26:38]  Just wish he would have just done that little thing, Israel-UAE peace deal.
[00:26:43]  Donald Trump brought up a great point about the tax returns.
[00:26:45]  Someone definitely helped coach him on this because I've never heard him say this before, where he said, my tax returns, we had $48 million a taxpayer-funded Mueller investigation.
[00:26:56]  We had FBI agents, as far as the eye can see, they went through my tax returns.
[00:27:01]  And if they would have seen anything in my tax returns, you would know about it right now.
[00:27:06]  President Trump also, I think, brought up a great point when he said, I prepaid my taxes, which is something that people at the highest income bracket do quite often.
[00:27:14]  A lot of entrepreneurs, when they have really, really good years, they say, I'm just going to prepay my taxes now.
[00:27:19]  I know that might be something that Joe Biden is not familiar with, but it's something that I think that President Trump needs to lean in on more.
[00:27:26]  And then President Trump, and again, I have to say, this debate, every question by Kristen Welker was written like from somebody from Huffington Post.
[00:27:34]  Every question was slightly veiled to an untrained eye.
[00:27:37]  It looks like it's fair, but it's all center left.
[00:27:39]  It's all center left.
[00:27:41]  It's all left.
[00:27:42]  And when it came to the Chinese coronavirus question, President Donald Trump did something that I think a lot of us were so pleased to hear him say: of course I take full responsibility.
[00:27:54]  And I don't blame Joe Biden, and you can't blame me, but I blame China.
[00:27:59]  That should be cut out in an ad right now.
[00:28:01]  It should be, it was perfect.
[00:28:03]  And President Donald Trump was the only person tonight.
[00:28:07]  Crispin did a little bit of a tap, rap-a-tap dance on it, but it was just pageantry and show theater, who talked about the human cost of the lockdowns, depression, suicide, alcoholism, business closures.
[00:28:20]  And where did Donald Trump decide to focus his attention?
[00:28:25]  The heart of America, New York City.
[00:28:29]  He didn't just do that because he's from New York, but every American has some connection in New York City.
[00:28:34]  It is our largest city.
[00:28:35]  It's where finance, movies, it's the idea of the American dream.
[00:28:39]  And that physical picture that we all have in our mind about a ghost town of New York City was so effective for Donald Trump to do tonight.
[00:28:47]  And it's also effective for other reasons.
[00:28:49]  Almost everyone in Eastern Pennsylvania travels to New York City at least once every couple of years.
[00:28:54]  So instead of just talking about Scranton, he's talking about something that is so politically tangible to the American population, which is a decline of what many people have called the center of the world, New York City.
[00:29:05]  And of course, it was very personal to President Trump.
[00:29:10]  Donald Trump did something that I think he needs to lean in on more.
[00:29:13]  He said, Joe Biden, you're funded by the Wall Street guys.
[00:29:16]  You're the one that is funded by the elites of this country.
[00:29:19]  You are the ones that are being that you're funded by the most wealthy, 1% of 1% people in the country.
[00:29:27]  And Joe Biden had no response to that.
[00:29:29]  And so if there's anyone out here that has friends that are on the left, that are socialists, that are Bernie Sanders supporters, or maybe you're a Bernie Sanders supporter watching this right now and you're a Democrat, and you think that Wall Street has too much power, you think that the ruling class needs to be challenged.
[00:29:45]  Tonight, Joe Biden told you that he is the corporate Wall Street candidate.
[00:29:51]  And Donald Trump exposed that fraud.
[00:29:53]  He said, do you know how easy it would be for me to go and do these deals?
[00:29:57]  What Donald Trump is saying is this.
[00:29:59]  Donald Trump could call Goldman Sachs, Citibank, Wells Fargo, Deutsche Bank, Deutsche Bank, every single one of the main Wall Street firms, and do one lunch and one dinner in New York City.
[00:30:10]  It would cost him six hours of his time and he'd raise $100 million.
[00:30:15]  But for that money, he would have to have private meetings with Goldman, Wells Fargo, Citibank, J.P. Morgan.
[00:30:23]  And they sit down, they say, Mr. President, you know, we have bundled all this money for you.
[00:30:29]  And this is what the head of J.P. Morgan would say and all these people.
[00:30:34]  But in return, can you intensify the Dodd-Frank regulation against the small banks in America, the small bank in Scranton, the small bank in Phoenix?
[00:30:45]  Because we want to expand our JPMorgan, Wells Fargo empire.
[00:30:49]  Can you do that for us?
[00:30:51]  And Goldman would say, Mr. President, here's $100 million that we bundled for you.
[00:30:56]  Just talk a good game on China, but don't actually do that stuff because, you know, $100 million.
[00:31:02]  That's what we call bribery.
[00:31:03]  And that's what Joe Biden has been doing.
[00:31:06]  Joe Biden has been raising so much money because he's been cutting deals with the ruling class in this country.
[00:31:11]  Exhibit A, Mike Bloomberg.
[00:31:14]  Why would Mike Bloomberg be spending $2 million a day in Florida to defeat Donald Trump?
[00:31:19]  It's not because he loves Joe Biden.
[00:31:20]  It's because the Chinese Communist Party funds the Bloomberg Terminal Empire that is the Bloomberg multi-billion dollar fortune.
[00:31:28]  Mike Bloomberg is worth, let's get a fact check, $80 billion, $75 billion.
[00:31:33]  Why are the wealthiest people on the planet unifying behind Joe Biden?
[00:31:37]  Because Joe Biden is going to create a Philosopher King government.
[00:31:40]  The same people that lied to you about shutdowns, the same people that lied to you about models and have been telling you one thing and another thing that has been happening, those people will have a bigger platform than ever before.
[00:31:52]  Bloomberg's with $55 billion.
[00:31:54]  Okay, what's $20 billion between friends?
[00:31:56]  Okay, $55 billion.

=== Russian Ties and Biden Strategy (15:47) ===

[00:31:58]  And yet Bloomberg is more motivated than ever to elect Joe Biden because Bloomberg and the Wall Street Titans, they want a bigger voice that they do not have with President Donald Trump.
[00:32:14]  I want to tell you guys about Good Ranchers.
[00:32:16]  It's amazing.
[00:32:17]  Connor here, Charlie Kirk show.
[00:32:19]  He is raving about Good Ranchers.
[00:32:21]  He says the marbled meats, the texture, the flavor, the depth, the juiciness.
[00:32:25]  He has not stopped talking about Good Ranchers meat.
[00:32:28]  We've been talking about it.
[00:32:28]  We said, okay, give us some of that Good Ranchers meat.
[00:32:31]  Boom, 10 out of 10.
[00:32:32]  That's right.
[00:32:32]  He's smiling.
[00:32:33]  It's true.

[00:32:36]  And they began with the standard of bringing top quality meat.

[00:33:15]  President Trump also zeroed in on how hard he has been, how tough he has been on Russia.
[00:33:21]  I thought President Trump could have done a better job of this.
[00:33:24]  I think President Trump should have talked about the red line because everyone remembers the red line.
[00:33:28]  Obama said, if Putin and Bashar al-Assad cross the red line, we won't tolerate that in Syria.
[00:33:36]  Well, they did cross the red line with Trump twice.
[00:33:38]  And in defiance to Vladimir and Putin's wishes, Tomahawk missiles were sent into Syria.
[00:33:43]  We expelled Russian diplomats.
[00:33:45]  Trump was kind of being a little lighthearted here.
[00:33:47]  I actually don't think this was a strong line for Trump when he said you sent Ukraine pillows.
[00:33:52]  People were like, the my pillow guy?
[00:33:54]  What is he talking about?
[00:33:54]  I don't understand.
[00:33:55]  I was confused.
[00:33:56]  No, meaning that he was sending non-lethal aid to Ukraine, but the United States under Trump gave lethal weaponry to the Ukrainians.
[00:34:06]  We expelled Russian diplomats.
[00:34:07]  We applied sanctions.
[00:34:09]  We have been more intense and more fierce.
[00:34:10]  And now we have evidence that the Russian Federation and Vladimir Putin have been trying to defeat Donald Trump and elect Joe Biden.
[00:34:19]  And towards the beginning of the debate, Donald Trump had another great one-liner.
[00:34:23]  He said, well, Joe, you can afford to be locked down.
[00:34:27]  And I know you're locked down a lot, but I can't do that as president.
[00:34:31]  What you saw tonight was a brave man versus a cowardly and corrupt man, a man that believes running for the presidency of the greatest country ever to exist in the history of the world, with 340 million people, many of whom are struggling.
[00:34:47]  He thinks the way that you get to power is by hiding, where Donald Trump said it very well.
[00:34:54]  I don't know if it resonated as well as the argument he was making.
[00:34:56]  Let me be clear.
[00:34:57]  He was making a great argument.
[00:34:59]  I don't know if this one actually landed as well as he meant it, but the argument he was making was terrific.
[00:35:04]  That being president means you must be willing to take the risks that your citizens are taking.
[00:35:10]  That if you think that the virus is out there and you're saying we should reopen the country, I'm going to reopen it with you.
[00:35:16]  That's what Donald Trump was saying.
[00:35:18]  I don't know if he did it.
[00:35:19]  I don't know if it hit as well as he meant it, but that's what President Trump was saying.
[00:35:23]  It's like, you're hiding like a coward.
[00:35:26]  I'm meeting with gold star families.
[00:35:28]  I'm doing these sorts of things.
[00:35:30]  I'm getting, I got the virus and I got over it, and here we are.
[00:35:35]  And President Donald Trump went out of his way to say that 99.9%, 999% of confirmed cases of young people will be just fine with this.
[00:35:44]  And I liked when he said something, I've never heard him say this before.
[00:35:47]  My son, who's a teenager, got it.
[00:35:49]  I think that really hit home for a lot of parents out there.
[00:35:51]  I think that was very, very effective.
[00:35:54]  He exposed the fraud that Joe Biden was on H1N1, saying that 700,000 Americans would have died under Joe Biden's handling of the virus.
[00:36:03]  And Joe Biden says, well, he doesn't have a plan.
[00:36:05]  This is a lie.
[00:36:06]  This is a one-liner that has been input into Joe Biden's speech, speech coding.
[00:36:14]  And he just keeps it.
[00:36:14]  He doesn't have a plan.
[00:36:15]  He doesn't have a deployment.
[00:36:16]  He doesn't have a plan.
[00:36:18]  I have been getting texts and emails.
[00:36:20]  I want you guys right now, please, if you're watching, email us your subscription, and you can win a copy, but tell us who you think won.
[00:36:27]  Say in the comments and email us right now, freedom at charliekirk.com.
[00:36:30]  If you think Trump won, if you think Biden won, right now, email us.
[00:36:33]  And if we select you, we are going to give you a signed copy of the MAGA doctrine.
[00:36:38]  Trump won, Biden won.
[00:36:40]  Freedom at CharlieKirk.com.
[00:36:42]  Right now, we just have these emails coming in.
[00:36:44]  Who's winning right now, guys?
[00:36:45]  Is Trump or Biden winning in our little unscientific poll?
[00:36:47]  Trump's winning?
[00:36:48]  Okay, we'll go figure because he won the debate.
[00:36:52]  But I'm getting emails from other people outside of this live stream of the type of voter that Trump needed to win over tonight.
[00:36:59]  People that are registered Republican, that have been less than satisfied with some of the at least their impression of the rhetoric and the style.
[00:37:09]  And President Trump's style was phenomenal tonight.
[00:37:13]  In fact, I might even say his style was even better than his substance, and his substance was awesome.
[00:37:19]  Because Trump, you could see he was stopping himself from interrupting.
[00:37:22]  I don't think he interrupted him once.
[00:37:24]  I think he might have said one thing, but he stopped himself.
[00:37:27]  His facial expressions were terrific.
[00:37:29]  And do you know what my only regret is tonight?
[00:37:32]  Why didn't we have another debate?
[00:37:35]  If we would have had another debate, we would have just built this momentum and we would have built it and grown it.
[00:37:41]  Joe Biden tonight so decisively lost the debate and maybe the election, he is scrambling for the hills.
[00:37:51]  And with that, I wouldn't want to be Joe Biden right now.
[00:37:54]  What's his name?
[00:37:55]  Tony Berlowski.
[00:37:56]  I'm sorry.
[00:37:57]  What's his name?
[00:37:58]  I keep getting this thing.
[00:37:59]  It's a tough name, I have to say.
[00:38:01]  Tony B, okay?
[00:38:02]  We'll get the whole thing.
[00:38:04]  Tony B came out today.
[00:38:07]  If you didn't see this press conference, we'll be covering this live, by the way, tomorrow at 12 Eastern on our program, radio show, radio stations across the country.
[00:38:14]  Tony Berlowski, who is, was Hunter Biden, no, not Berlowski.
[00:38:18]  Okay.
[00:38:19]  Again, we're doing this thing live, as they say.
[00:38:21]  We're going live, everybody.
[00:38:22]  So we're doing this thing live.
[00:38:24]  Tony B, the associate of the Bidens, came out with skewering and scathing news saying that Joe Biden knew about these dealings.
[00:38:32]  He met with Joe Biden about these dealings.
[00:38:35]  He was intimately aware of these foreign business dealings.
[00:38:37]  Why would Tony be doing this?
[00:38:40]  Tony would be doing this because he knows that federal indictments might be coming.
[00:38:46]  Tony Bob Ulinski.
[00:38:48]  Okay, we all got it, everybody, right?
[00:38:49]  Tony Bob, poor Tony.
[00:38:51]  I'm sorry.
[00:38:51]  I mean, no defense.
[00:38:52]  He's a registered Democrat, friend of the Bidens, businessman.
[00:38:58]  And he, and Hunter stole money from him, right?
[00:39:00]  Which is why this whole thing happened, $5 million.
[00:39:03]  And this is something that the Biden ruling class did not seem coming.
[00:39:08]  So Republicans are now winning voter registration in the key states, winning early voting enthusiasm like we've never seen before.
[00:39:15]  Joe Biden called his opposition, Abraham Lincoln.
[00:39:17]  I'll take it.
[00:39:18]  And now you have a scandal 11 days out that show the Bidens were more corrupt than the Clintons.
[00:39:25]  They were just worse at covering it up.
[00:39:27]  You see, Hunter Biden did not take the bleach bit case on how to destroy important emails from Hillary Clinton.
[00:39:32]  Instead, he handed over the laptop to a computer repairman in Delaware.
[00:39:37]  And the Biden campaign, all they have left is this debunked, disproven line that this is Russian disinformation.
[00:39:47]  So, Joe Biden did not do himself any favors with the oil and gas industry tonight.
[00:39:51]  Anyone that is connected to fracking right now, if you're watching this or you know someone that is in oil and gas in Pennsylvania, in Texas, or anywhere else, know that Joe Biden will destroy the backbone of your industry.
[00:40:06]  And he admitted it tonight.
[00:40:09]  But also, Joe Biden didn't do himself any favors with another group of people, his base.
[00:40:17]  What about the enthused Bernie Sanders base?
[00:40:20]  Joe Biden keeps on doing this thing where he likes poking the eye of beating Bernie Sanders.
[00:40:26]  In the new era of politics here, I think Joe's going to be in for a rude awakening.
[00:40:30]  I won.
[00:40:31]  Bernie Sanders lost.
[00:40:33]  Hold on, you did a whole manifesto with him, and you're right, you did win.
[00:40:36]  But you need Bernie's voters too.
[00:40:39]  And if 5%, 10% of the Bernie voters taper off, Joe Biden is going to be in for a political, just disaster.
[00:40:50]  Tonight, Joe Biden says he doesn't stand for socialized medicine and Medicare for all, and he won no one over with his comments.
[00:40:58]  Joe Biden said that he doesn't want to get rid of fracking.
[00:41:00]  Then he says he wants to get rid of all oil and natural gas.
[00:41:03]  So he loses his base.
[00:41:05]  He loses the moderates, exposes his radicalism.
[00:41:09]  He was so poor on the racial issue, and Donald Trump was very clear and very confident on it.
[00:41:19]  Who did Joe Biden win over tonight?
[00:41:21]  I think Joe Biden not only did not win over any voters tonight or persuadables or people in the middle, I think Joe Biden lost people in his base.
[00:41:29]  And I think Joe Biden people lost people in the center right of this country.
[00:41:33]  I think some center-right people that might have been holding onto their ballot, that have been waiting to go vote, and they're saying, I know that Biden stands for bad things, but Trump, give me a reason to vote for you.
[00:41:43]  Trump gave people a reason to vote for him tonight.
[00:41:46]  That I'm going to reopen the country safely.
[00:41:48]  I am not a politician.
[00:41:50]  I'm tired of these typical politician answers.
[00:41:53]  We've gotten stuff done.
[00:41:55]  He's all talk, no action, and I ran because of you.
[00:42:01]  President Trump won on every single point of the argument and the debate tonight.
[00:42:08]  So let's take some questions.
[00:42:09]  You guys are emailing us right now, freedom at charliekirk.com.
[00:42:13]  Again, all you have to do is subscribe to win a MAGA doctrine.
[00:42:16]  So let's get some questions.
[00:42:17]  If someone wants to hand a tablet or something, that we're doing this.
[00:42:21]  And by the way, we are doing this live as we are crisscrossing the country.
[00:42:24]  We are in an undisclosed location.
[00:42:26]  It's probably the best way to say it.
[00:42:28]  But we are all over the country.
[00:42:29]  We're going to Florida tomorrow.
[00:42:30]  Then we're going back to Texas.
[00:42:32]  Then we're going to Tennessee.
[00:42:33]  Then we're going to Wisconsin.
[00:42:34]  We're going back to Arizona.
[00:42:35]  Then Florida.
[00:42:36]  We are crisscrossing the country because we need to outwork the Democrats, everybody.
[00:42:40]  We need to outwork the billionaire class.
[00:42:42]  We need to outwork the tech elites.
[00:42:44]  We need to outwork the base of the party.
[00:42:46]  Okay, I see right here one question.
[00:42:49]  This is from Teresa from Alabama.
[00:42:50]  Charlie, what do you think about the discussion on minimum wage?
[00:42:53]  It's a great, great point.
[00:42:54]  I actually had it written here.
[00:42:54]  I wanted to talk about it.
[00:42:56]  Joe Biden saying that he does not care about raising the minimum wage shows that he does not care about the welfare or the betterment of black people in this country.
[00:43:07]  It is black workers and Hispanic workers that get priced out of the labor market the most when you have these sudden jolts of wage hikes that disallow people to enter the workforce.
[00:43:20]  That more than anything else is what keeps people out at the lowest level of entrepreneurial activity.
[00:43:28]  Seattle, Portland, and New York, that all raised their minimum wage dramatically and arbitrarily, saw a decline in waitresses and waiters, a decline in people working with their hands, a decline in middle-class jobs, and a surge in people going on government benefits.
[00:43:44]  If you want to destroy small business in this country, you will abruptly raise minimum wage.
[00:43:49]  President Trump does know, though, he doesn't want to be seized like he's inconsiderate to working people.
[00:43:53]  Perfect answer by President Trump as if he was just ready for it.
[00:43:57]  It was so awesome.
[00:43:58]  We're going to leave it to the states.
[00:44:00]  A perfect answer.
[00:44:01]  That is the correct answer.
[00:44:03]  Let's get to the next question here.
[00:44:04]  This is from Heather.
[00:44:06]  As you can see, I have the questions right here.
[00:44:07]  So you guys email us, freedom at charliekirk.com right now.
[00:44:10]  We're getting these emails.
[00:44:11]  Court packing.
[00:44:13]  Has there been any answers from Biden Harris about court packing if elected?
[00:44:17]  It's an issue I'm very concerned about and haven't heard any more since the vice presidential debate.
[00:44:21]  Thanks for all you do, Charlie Heather Norrell.
[00:44:24]  Heather, congratulations.
[00:44:24]  You win a signed copy of the MAGA doctrine.
[00:44:27]  One thing I wish the president would have pushed on was court packing tonight.
[00:44:30]  Joe Biden says that he's going to have some sort of commission studying court packing.
[00:44:34]  A typical politician answer.
[00:44:36]  Again, it's hard for me to give feedback for President Trump because he literally did the eight things that we said in our debate prep.
[00:44:42]  I think he went eight for eight, right?
[00:44:44]  He handled the Hunter Biden thing well.
[00:44:46]  He challenged Joe Biden on being a lifelong politician.
[00:44:48]  He smiled.
[00:44:49]  He was charming.
[00:44:49]  He was positive.
[00:44:50]  He was upbeat.
[00:44:51]  He talked about the future of our country.
[00:44:53]  He also wasn't afraid to crack a joke or two.
[00:44:55]  But the one thing I wish that Joe Biden would have focused on more, I'm sorry, that one thing I wish that Joe Biden would have been forced to focus on more, that's what I meant to say, was that he was going to pack the Supreme Court.
[00:45:07]  He's going to add seats to the Supreme Court.
[00:45:09]  And make no mistake, if these people get in power, they are abolishing the Electoral College.
[00:45:13]  They're adding seats to the Supreme Court.
[00:45:16]  They're making D.C. and Puerto Rico states, and they're going to do it quickly and decisively.
[00:45:20]  And that will be their opening shot.
[00:45:21]  And President Trump, I think, pressing in on that is very, very important.
[00:45:26]  Next question.
[00:45:27]  Okay, here we have Nicholas.
[00:45:29]  I'm going to mispronounce the name.
[00:45:31]  P-I-N-E-A-O.
[00:45:32]  Pineau?
[00:45:33]  Pinu?
[00:45:33]  Okay.
[00:45:34]  Congratulations.
[00:45:35]  You win a signed copy of the MAGA doctrine.
[00:45:38]  Hi, Charlie.
[00:45:38]  Love the show.
[00:45:39]  Have been subscribed to a podcast, a podcast, for a while now.
[00:45:41]  Quick question: How does tonight's debate affect the Joe Biden campaign strategy?
[00:45:45]  It's a great, very thoughtful question.
[00:45:47]  Congratulations.
[00:45:48]  You win a signed copy of the MAGA doctrine.
[00:45:49]  Keep emailing us.
[00:45:50]  We have a whole team that's going through them right now.
[00:45:52]  We are coming to you live right after the debate.
[00:45:54]  And if you guys are just tuning in, signed copy of the MAGA doctrine.
[00:45:57]  Okay.
[00:45:59]  Let's try to pretend we're the Joe Biden campaign tonight, okay?
[00:46:02]  Let's try to pretend we're a bunch of people that hate our country and, quite honestly, deep down hate ourselves.
[00:46:07]  And we're trying to figure out how we can elect a senile, bitter old man and a communist to the presidency after that horror show of a debate.
[00:46:18]  What do you do?
[00:46:19]  Joe Biden will be forced to actually campaign after this.
[00:46:23]  He will.
[00:46:24]  Joe Biden's performance is so bad that Joe Biden has to hit the campaign trail.
[00:46:28]  And here's the one thing about hitting the campaign trail: these reporters are actually starting to ask questions about these business dealings.
[00:46:34]  They're actually starting to ask questions about the laptop.
[00:46:37]  They're starting to ask questions about who is actually transferring information to these business, international business dealings.
[00:46:45]  If I'm the Biden campaign, I try to deploy every surrogate I possibly can to try and almost create a new reality to make it seem as if Joe Biden won the debate, which we all know is pathologically untrue.
[00:47:01]  And I wouldn't want to be in the Biden campaign right now.
[00:47:05]  I would go to my Wall Street donors.
[00:47:07]  I would go to my crony, Chinese Connected Special Interests, and go raise a couple hundred million dollars because the Biden campaign is going to need it.
[00:47:14]  Because what happened tonight?
[00:47:16]  You could not buy a billion dollars of advertising that would convey how incapable Joe Biden is for the presidency.
[00:47:24]  Joe Biden and his $5 million a day in Arizona, Pennsylvania, all that, all of that gets magically undone when he has a performance like that tonight.
[00:47:32]  I mean, I'm getting messages from swing voters like you wouldn't believe.
[00:47:35]  And by the way, email us things that you're hearing and seeing.
[00:47:38]  We want to hear it on the ground.
[00:47:39]  Freedom at CharlieKirk.com.
[00:47:41]  Biden campaign strategy.
[00:47:42]  They're going to lie more.
[00:47:44]  They're going to demagogue.

=== Amy Coney Barrett Crisis Update (09:49) ===

[00:47:46]  And by the way, they're in crisis and they know it.
[00:47:49]  Next question.
[00:47:51]  Question from Ray in Florida.
[00:47:53]  Do you think Obamacare will come back if Biden gets elected?
[00:47:56]  Well, evidently, we're getting Biden care tonight.
[00:47:59]  What an egomaniac narcissist.
[00:48:01]  And he was very unclear about what Biden care is.
[00:48:05]  The topic of healthcare, I think that the president handled very well.
[00:48:09]  The one thing I wish he would have talked about tonight that our great friends at the healthcare price transparency, can we get the name of what that is?
[00:48:16]  Yeah, Price Transparency.
[00:48:18]  It's a great initiative.
[00:48:19]  And where they want actual prices to be published for if you go to a hospital, you should have the right to know what the prices are that are publicly available.
[00:48:29]  The president was perfect on one thing, though.
[00:48:33]  Calming down the fears that people have around preexisting conditions.
[00:48:38]  He said it three times and he said it repeatedly.
[00:48:41]  What was missing tonight?
[00:48:43]  Who is the one person that wasn't attacked three debates in a row?
[00:48:49]  Who is the one person that just has never been attacked?
[00:48:53]  Joe Biden first, Kamala Harris two, Joe Biden second.
[00:48:58]  Amy Coney Barrett.
[00:49:02]  Untouched.
[00:49:05]  I have to say, I am so surprised, and I was wrong about this.
[00:49:09]  I thought the Democrats were going to go all in.
[00:49:12]  And actually, our team here, our amazing team, and by the way, you guys can support us if you'd like at charliekirk.com/slash support.
[00:49:18]  It helps us do these late night live streams and all these things.
[00:49:21]  But our amazing team here, they said, and I disagreed.
[00:49:24]  They said, I think the Democrats are not going to fight this battle.
[00:49:27]  They're going to go through the motions.
[00:49:29]  And it was hard for me to believe that the Democrats were not going to go through the motions.
[00:49:32]  But you know what?
[00:49:33]  Actually, ended up being true.
[00:49:34]  Amy Coney Barrett was unbelievably qualified, incredibly popular, super articulate.
[00:49:41]  And also the Democrats, you know what their bet is?
[00:49:44]  We're going to lose this battle to win the court-packing war.
[00:49:47]  That's their bet.
[00:49:48]  Okay, Amy Coney Barrett, you can go on, but we're going to add seats, so it really doesn't matter.
[00:49:53]  That's their thinking.
[00:49:55]  And that's their playbook.
[00:49:57]  And I actually did not think they were going to be this brazen about it.
[00:50:01]  I did not think the Democrats are going to be like, yeah, whatever.
[00:50:03]  We'll give up RBG's seat.
[00:50:04]  Nine was nice.
[00:50:05]  We're going to 15 quickly.
[00:50:07]  And they're all going to be communists.
[00:50:09]  I didn't think that they were going to do that very quickly.
[00:50:12]  But also, President Donald Trump needs to have a swearing-in ceremony with Amy Coney Barrett in primetime television the Sunday before the election.
[00:50:23]  Beautiful ceremony.
[00:50:24]  Probably less people this time, but a beautiful ceremony.
[00:50:27]  Swearing in Amy Coney Barrett, because that will only help him with swing voters that he needs to win in Battleground States.
[00:50:33]  Okay, next question.
[00:50:37]  Oil industry comment from Vinny.
[00:50:39]  Hey, y'all from Texas.
[00:50:41]  Hey, we've been in Texas.
[00:50:42]  There you go.
[00:50:43]  Do you think the oil industry comment from Joe Biden will hurt him enough in Texas and Pennsylvania to help him win?
[00:50:48]  Yes, Joe Biden misspoke.
[00:50:50]  Joe Biden short-circuited, and Joe Biden made a huge error tonight.
[00:50:54]  And Donald Trump wore him down.
[00:50:57]  This was the rumble in the jungle, everybody.
[00:51:00]  This was, you know, the thriller in Manila.
[00:51:03]  I could keep going, but I won't, right?
[00:51:04]  You guys, my audience probably has no idea what I'm talking about.
[00:51:07]  You guys know what I'm talking about.
[00:51:09]  It was a 15-weight, heavyweight fight, and Joe Biden was tapping out.
[00:51:13]  He was done.
[00:51:14]  But Donald Trump was just getting started in round 13, round 14, and then it cracked.
[00:51:20]  Joe Biden was able to have whatever adrenaline they shot him with, whatever things they put into him.
[00:51:24]  He was able to keep it up.
[00:51:26]  And then he cracked like going into shale.
[00:51:31]  He cracked when he said we're going to phase out oil and natural gas.
[00:51:36]  That was the biggest blunder policy-wise that Joe Biden could have made.
[00:51:41]  And Donald Trump knew it.
[00:51:43]  Tomorrow in our radio program and on our live stream, we're going to play sound and we're going to play tapes.
[00:51:47]  We're going to do all of this.
[00:51:49]  That Donald Trump doing this.
[00:51:51]  Hmm.
[00:51:52]  Interesting.
[00:51:55]  Shows that Donald Trump knew that that might have lost the election for Joe Biden.
[00:52:02]  Snap poll on Hannity Fox News.
[00:52:04]  What's the source?
[00:52:04]  Is it a Fox News poll?
[00:52:05]  Probably.
[00:52:06]  74% of respondents believe Donald Trump won the debate tonight.
[00:52:10]  74%.
[00:52:13]  My only question is: who on earth are these 26 people that thought that Joe Biden won the debate tonight?
[00:52:19]  They must be related to Biden or lobbyists or something.
[00:52:22]  I mean, it's unbelievable.
[00:52:23]  74%.
[00:52:26]  You're about to see something in the coming days.
[00:52:27]  Prep yourself, everybody.
[00:52:29]  All right.
[00:52:29]  I'm going to tell you something before it happens.
[00:52:31]  You're about to see two things.
[00:52:33]  Number one, you're going to see a surprising lack of polls in the next couple of days of who won the debate.
[00:52:38]  Number two, you're about to see whatever disinformation campaign they can throw to muddy the waters and throw their smokescreen grenades and cover fire for Joe so that he can retreat.
[00:52:50]  They're going to deploy it now because tonight was a disaster for Joe Biden.
[00:52:55]  He was angry.
[00:52:56]  He was mean.
[00:52:56]  He was contradictory.
[00:52:57]  He said nothing new.
[00:52:59]  He was completely out of control when it came to calling him Abraham Lincoln and the poor boys and all of this.
[00:53:07]  And he mishandled the corruption and government stuff.
[00:53:10]  The media is about to provide some cover fire, but there's not enough weaponry to do that in the media arsenal.
[00:53:15]  Let me tell you why.
[00:53:17]  Because this laptop story is so real that the whole Biden family might go to jail over it.
[00:53:25]  Yes, next question.
[00:53:27]  News Nation now, WGN, comes in, similar results.
[00:53:30]  Oh, that's the source.
[00:53:32]  But only 24% of respondents thought Joe Biden won.
[00:53:36]  And I'm sure we'll get a couple snap polls, and then they're going to stop polling because they're not going to like the results.
[00:53:40]  Next question.
[00:53:41]  Again, we're getting your questions here.

[00:53:46]  Hi, Charlie.
[00:53:47]  My husband and I have been watching your show almost every day since this election season picked up.
[00:53:52]  I've noticed that as the election is coming up, the news are becoming more and more anti-Trump.
[00:53:56]  And one of the news is those women coming up with rape allegations against Trump.
[00:54:02]  I was wondering if your thoughts about that.
[00:54:03]  Come to Cincinnati.
[00:54:04]  Thank you.
[00:54:06]  I don't know how to pronounce that first name.
[00:54:08]  So T-A-I-S, T-H-A-I-S.
[00:54:11]  God bless you.
[00:54:12]  You went a signed copy of the MAGA doctrine.
[00:54:14]  They're all fake.
[00:54:15]  There's no evidence whatsoever, no criminal complaints.
[00:54:18]  These allegations are baseless.
[00:54:19]  They're decades old.
[00:54:20]  They're not even worth validating or platforming.
[00:54:23]  Freedom at CharlieKirk.com.
[00:54:24]  Let's take another question.
[00:54:26]  And as we do that, I'm going to point to Jake right here, our terrific team.
[00:54:31]  And I'm telling you, we have an amazing team here on the Charlie Kirk show.
[00:54:34]  CharlieKirk.com/slash support is how you guys can do that.
[00:54:37]  And you email us, freedom at charliekirk.com.
[00:54:39]  Charlie, I have a question for you.
[00:54:40]  Destiny, congratulations.
[00:54:41]  You win a signed copy of the MAGA doctrine.
[00:54:43]  And Destiny, there's only one thing you forgot.
[00:54:46]  And I'm going to let it pass this time.
[00:54:48]  You didn't subscribe to the Charlie Kirk show.
[00:54:51]  But I'm still going to give you a pass.
[00:54:53]  So please subscribe and we'll send you a book.
[00:54:54]  Okay, Destiny.
[00:54:55]  And what a beautiful name, Destiny.
[00:54:57]  It's great.
[00:54:58]  Is there anything that could come from the emails and his dealings that make Biden have to drop out?
[00:55:03]  People are saying this.
[00:55:03]  It's not going to happen.
[00:55:05]  Joe Rogan, he's brilliant.
[00:55:07]  I think that Joe Rogan's hilarious.
[00:55:08]  Joe Biden is literally that flashlight in the dark woods that is flickering, and you're not going to make it out.
[00:55:13]  And this is, you're in the woods.
[00:55:15]  You're on your own.
[00:55:16]  You got to figure it out.
[00:55:17]  It's like, it's not going to make it.
[00:55:19]  And you're in total darkness.
[00:55:21]  They're going to try to make, they're going to try to ride this one out.
[00:55:23]  And I don't even know if Joe Biden, if he wins the election, will be sworn in.
[00:55:27]  There's so much criminal nonsense.
[00:55:28]  There's so much evidence here that any form of a justice system will indict Joe Biden and his son and everyone connected quickly.
[00:55:37]  And if we, and if they don't, we do not have a justice system in this country.
[00:55:40]  Freedom at charliekirk.com, freedom at charliekirk.com.
[00:55:44]  Here's one right here.
[00:55:45]  Let's get this one.
[00:55:47]  And it is from Thomas.
[00:55:48]  Charlie, do you think that if they're not able to eliminate the Electoral College, they will try to make DC and Puerto Rico states to get the states they want?
[00:55:55]  Of course.
[00:55:55]  Adding states to the Electoral College is part of their playbook.
[00:55:59]  It's what they've been wanting to do for some time.
[00:56:01]  They want to abolish the Electoral College.
[00:56:03]  Right now, Republicans are winning voter registration.
[00:56:06]  We are winning turnout.
[00:56:07]  If you're watching this right now, I'm telling you, here's your call to action.
[00:56:11]  Find 20 people and list them right now.
[00:56:14]  Get a piece of paper and list them of people that are registered that otherwise would not have voted and get them to vote for Trump.
[00:56:21]  I'm telling you, this thing is going to be won by you, getting your friends and dragging them, getting them to the polls.
[00:56:27]  It might not matter to them, but it matters for the country.
[00:56:29]  This is your call to action.
[00:56:30]  If everyone does this, we have thousands and thousands of people watching right now, right?
[00:56:34]  If everyone does this, it's hundreds of thousands of votes for Donald Trump.
[00:56:38]  Okay.
[00:56:39]  Hi, Charlie.
[00:56:40]  Thank you for all you do.
[00:56:41]  Love the podcast and listen every morning.
[00:56:42]  Thank you.
[00:56:43]  Why didn't Trump focus more on Kamala tonight?
[00:56:45]  I wish he would have, but he did mention it slightly.
[00:56:47]  I wish he would have said the Harris administration, as we would have done the debate prep.
[00:56:51]  I wish he would have leaned in on it more.
