Thank you.
Hey guys, welcome to another huge episode of Triggered.
We are literally just days from Election Day on Tuesday, November 5th.
We've worked harder than ever to get to this point.
And now, we the people get the final say.
So much is at stake for all of the patriotic, hardworking Americans who simply want a better life.
They're not garbage.
They're not fascists.
They're not Nazis.
They're not deplorables or irredeemables or every other name the left has been calling you for the last nine years.
They're great, hardworking patriots who've watched their country get eroded By incompetence.
But guys, we are ready to take out the trash this Tuesday.
The trash is the bureaucracy, the idiocy, the stupidity that we've seen from the Harris-Biden administration, the policies that have failed us so miserably for so long.
And I have a feeling garbage cans may be on the top of my list for my Halloween costume tonight.
I got to take about six hours off the road to go trick-or-treating with my kids, so I'll keep an eye out for them.
And guys, like I keep saying, I don't want to wake up on November 6th and wish I had done more.
Whatever you would do, If you woke up on November 6th and Kamala Harris was president-elect, whatever you would do to get a mulligan, to get a do-over, do it now.
Get to the polls if you haven't already.
Bring a friend.
Bring 10 friends.
Bring 50 friends.
Have a plan.
So we're all going to get into all of this at the top of the news.
Senator Tom Cotton will join us for an in-depth interview at just at what's at stake in the United States Senate.
Obviously so critical to have the Senate in the House to be able to let my father's agenda go forward.
Make sure you guys are liking, sharing, subscribing so you never miss one of these major episodes.
The rest of big tech, the rest of mainstream media is literally stacked against us so we have to work even harder to make sure that we break through all the noise and actually grow this movement.

MXM News, like minute by minute.
MXM News, where you can get the mainstream news without the mainstream bias.
And in the meantime, protect yourself from the economic insanity with the Birch Gold Group.
Because with the massive tax hike proposed by Harris, you might be thinking it's time to make more of your savings tax-sheltered and inflation-sheltered.
Look, You guys see the markets, you see the volatility, and we know the Fed is just printing more and more money.
That means your costs go up and your quality of life goes down.
So like I always said, I just want you to be prepared.
For over 20 years, Birch Gold has helped thousands of Americans protect their savings by converting an IRA or 401k into an IRA in physical gold.

as the text in there.
Very simple.
It's free.
There's no obligation.
Educate yourself.
Learn.
Make an intelligent decision for your family.
And now with that, Let's get into some of the top headlines.
Guys, we are just days away from the most important election of our lifetime.
If you're somewhere where early voting is open, go and vote.
Bring a friend.
Bring 10 friends.
Once you're done voting and bringing 10 friends, spend the next few days bringing another 100 friends.
Do whatever you can.
You cannot sit on the sidelines, right?
Don't get overconfident and don't get demoralized.
Half the polling, half the stories are designed to get you to sit at home.
The other half of the stories in the polling are designed to get you overconfident, also so you sit at home.
Make sure your loved ones are participating in this election.
Make sure your friends are.
Make sure anyone you know, especially in the swing states, but across the board, are participating.
We can't let Kamala win and permanently destroy our nation.
I get it, guys.
Every election they tell you it's the most important election of the century, yada, yada, yada.
It's the most important election ever.
This time it actually is.
Listen to everything we've talked about on this show for the last few months.
I'm quoting them when I talk about those things.
They're saying the quiet parts out loud.
They don't care about your First Amendment, your Second Amendment, any of the other amendments.
It's all on the table.
They couldn't care less.
You've had four years under Harris Biden.
You had four years under Trump.
When were you better off?
When was the economy better?
When was your cost lower?
When can you afford groceries?
And more importantly, when were we not at war?
My father can bring that all back, but not if you guys sit back there.
This was an interesting one.
Jake Paul, he gets it.
Jake Paul gets it.
He has over 20 million subscribers, so hopefully you young men turn out because I'm seeing, you know, there's higher women turn out.
That's usually not great for us on our side.
Young men tend to sit it out a lot more.
Get involved.
But Jake has over 20 million subscribers on YouTube, and he just had a powerful endorsement for President Trump.
It's actually amazing.
Here's a short clip of it, but I suggest you go watch the whole thing.
It's like 15 minutes, and he articulates all of these points so well.
So if you have a young person in your life, especially, it's probably more his demographic.
Send that to them because they're used to hearing the nonsense from the media.
They're used to being pre-programmed by their teachers in school or college, whatever it may be.
Make sure they see it.
They watch it because he does a great job of articulating it.
Here's a short clip.
Democrats have been in power for 12 of the last 16 years.
So if we aren't happy with the current political state, economic state, environmental state, then who is to blame?
Tim Walz, the vice presidential candidate, has even said this himself.
We can't afford Four more years of this.
We can't have four more years of this.
Even Tim says there needs to be change, and he's right.
We need to change from Kamala Harris to the Republican candidate, Donald Trump.
As my father said last night in Green Bay, you can't lead Americans if you don't love Americans.
Kamala Harris does not love Americans.
Her governing partner, Her partner in crime, her mentor, the person who says they're attached at the hip, Joe Biden, calls them garbage.
And Kamala Harris seems to agree.
Think about that for a second.
Kamala Harris keeps talking about how she wants to unify the country, but she thinks everyone watching this show is basically the enemy of the state.
She wouldn't condemn Joe Biden or the comments because she inherently believes them.
This is nothing new for the Democrats.
Remember Hillary with the deplorables and irredeemables?
That's how they think about you.
They hate your guts.
Vote accordingly.
It's not like they have successes.
It's not like they've done a good job and maybe you hold your nose and vote for them anyway because they've done something well for you.
It's been an abject disaster.
Make sure they hear your voice loud and clear on Tuesday at the voting booth.
And here's my father finding out in real time what Joe Biden said.
He was on the stage in Pennsylvania, I believe.
He was there with Marco Rubio.
What I love about this clip, though, it's so real and authentic.
He didn't know about it before.
The news literally broke while he was on stage speaking.
This is why he does what he does, guys.
This is why he keeps fighting for you.
Enough of the insanity.
Vote them all out. - He's talking about the Border Patrol?
He's talking about nurses.
He's talking about teachers.
He's talking about everyday Americans who love their country and want to dream big again and support you, Mr.
President.
And I hope their campaign is about to apologize for what Joe Biden just said.
We are not garbage.
We are patriots who love America.
And I didn't have this on my bingo card, folks.
But I will say, Bill Clinton continues to be the best surrogate on the Harris campaign.
He needs to get out there as often as possible.
Yesterday, Bill admitted that the Trump economy was much better than the Biden-Harris economy.
Watch for yourself.
I don't think it's right to say That people have to vote for Donald Trump because the economy was better there.
Thanks, Bill.
You're right.
The economy was a lot better under Trump.
Not only was the economy better, but the world was at peace, and the border was secure, and Americans were prosperous, and we weren't worried about sending our kids to go die in foreign lands like the warmonger Democrat Party would love.
And speaking of the border, Kamala Harris continues to think that voters are stupid and tries to rewrite history on the border.
She's been the borders are for nearly four years, and they have not been deporting illegal immigrants.
But now she's going to start, folks.
Does anyone really believe this?
She could have done any of these things, just like her economic policies, just like the war policies, just like everything.
They could have been doing all of the things she's going to claim she's going to do for the last four years.
And yet, She didn't.
And yet, she can't think of anything she would have done differently for the last four years.
And Joe Biden can't think of anything they would have done differently.
And she copied and pasted his policies and put them onto her webpage without changing the source code.
It's going to be more of the same, folks.
Don't let her and her lackeys, the lapdogs in the mainstream media, tell you it's going to be different.
They'll tell you anything different.
You need to hear, to vote for her, and then she's going to do whatever the Democrat Party apparatus wants.
Here's some shocking stats.
Under Kamala Harris, deportations of illegal immigrants arrested for assault are down 50%, and deportations for illegal immigrants arrested for burglary are down 55%.
Not only is she not deporting people who are illegally here, she isn't deporting them after they've committed additional crimes.
But now, she promises that she's going to enforce the law, guys.
Wink.
Big wink.
Who does she think she's fooling?
I mean, seriously, this is insane.
Kamala Harris not only doesn't care about the law, but she doesn't care about our heroes.
Just a few weeks ago, a Marine Corps veteran named Nicholas Ketz was murdered in Mexico by Mexican cartels.
His family has not heard once.
You know, one of the things that I want to say, yes, I believe this is a border issue, but this is also a national security issue.
Doug and I have both served honorably and we're both retirees from the military.
But what I'll say is, I think the American people need to know.
That one of the problems that's going on is nobody's reached out.
And there is clearly one side that cares about the American people, and that is President Trump and Senator Vance.
Again, if you don't love Americans, you aren't fit to lead Americans.
And Kamala Harris clearly doesn't love all Americans.
But the good news is, guys, there's so much we can fix on day one with just the right leadership and personnel.
And that includes making America healthy again, which for some reason the regime media finds very controversial.
They're not happy about making America healthy again, folks.
I guess their corporate sponsorships by the people who have been poisoning us for decades are a little bit more important than the health of our loved ones and our children.
Just look at this exchange between Howard Lutnick, a prominent supporter and donor to my father, and CNN host Caitlin Collins.
One other person who was on stage recently and was talking about coming into the administration is RFK Jr.
He said that Trump has promised him control of the public health agencies, HHS, which would be also CDC, FDA, USDA, all of these agencies.
Is that true?
Has Trump promised him basically the HHS job?
So I spent two and a half hours this week with Bobby Kennedy Jr.
And it was the most extraordinary thing.
Because let's face it, we've all heard on the news all sorts of sort of snarky comments about him.
And I said, so tell me, how's it going to go?
And he said, why don't you just listen to me explain things?
And what he explained was when he was born, we had three vaccines.
And autism was one in 10,000.
Now a baby's born with 76 vaccines because in 1986, they waived product liability for vaccines.
And here's the best one.
They started paying the people at the NIH, right?
They pay them a piece of the money for the vaccine companies.
Wait a minute, let me finish.
And so all of these vaccines came out without product liability.
So what happened now?
Autism is one in 34.
Okay, neither of us are doctors.
Vaccines are safe.
Why do you think vaccines are safe?
There's no product liability anymore.
They're not proven.
Kids get them and they're fine.
Why do you think they're fine?
Because they're proven scientifically to be so.
How about this?
There was one in 10,000 people of autism.
We all know so many more people with autism than had it when we were young.
Oh, come on.
I mean, his point is really interesting.
But vaccines don't cause autism, which is what RFK pushes, which is why people are concerned that he could get a job like HHS. He's not getting a job for HHS. What he's trying to do, here's what he wants to do.
He said, I want data.
I just want data, because they blocked the data.
But the data's out there.
Wait, it's not.
He wants the data so he can say these things are unsafe.
He says if you give me the data all I want is the data and I'll take on the data and show that it's not safe and then if you pull the product liability the companies will yank these vaccines right off off of the market.
So that's his point.
He's not trying to do anything but things that made sense and look This is not where I thought this was going, because...
Well, I spent two and a half hours with it, so...
But R.K. Jr.
is a vaccine skeptic.
He pushes lies about vaccines.
And I don't even think if Republicans...
Why do you think he pushes lies?
Why you said, you said, I'm not a scientist and you aren't.
So he just wants data.
But scientists say he pushes lies.
But here's my question on this.
Oh, but scientists were paid to say he pushes lies.
I mean, let's give him the data.
I think it'd be pretty cool to give him the data.
Let's see what he comes up with.
Okay.
I think it's pretty fun.
He pushed conspiracies about COVID. He had to apologize for tying vaccine questions to what happened in Germany during the Holocaust.
I promise you, I have not looked at all the things he said.
So I don't think he's the leading voice that anyone's looking at for unhealth.
He said Roundup.
Remember Roundup?
But you're saying he would not be in charge of HHS? No, of course not.
Okay, so he's not going to be an acting...
He's not going to be the secretary?
No!
That's not what he wants to do.
Would he be in an acting position or anything like that?
That's not what he wants to do.
I just told you what he wants.
He wants to help get data.
You're saying he wants access to data.
He just wants data, and he wants to prove things are wrong.
And he says, if I can't prove they're wrong, that's fine.
But if I can, I can save millions of Americans' lives and make their lives better.
And I think that's pretty cool.
I'm not sure any data...
So he's just trying to do it.
I don't think any data would back that up.
As I've said, to enact real change, we're going to have to end the business as usual inside the swamp, because Americans' health is at stake, and we need to fix it to end all of the abuses and all of the corruption.
And speaking of abuse of power, do you guys remember Doug Mackey?
I interviewed him on the show.
He was sentenced to prison for a meme.
For a meme.
Well, Jimmy Kimmel just basically did the same thing.
He did the same joke as Doug, but on live TV to, well, it's probably not millions because Jimmy doesn't exactly get the viewership anymore, but probably a lot more than Doug Mackey ever got.
Do you think Joe Biden's DOJ is going to target him and try to jail him for spreading misinformation about elections?
Give him a call.
Wrestle that mop bucket out of his hands.
I don't know if you guys know about this, but we have an election coming up on...
I feel pretty relaxed about it.
I've really been enjoying the week.
In times like these, it's important to remember that cannabis is legal in our state.
You have to go...
If you can vote early, vote early.
If you can't vote early, vote on time.
If you want to vote for Trump, vote late.
Vote very late.
Do your voting on Thursday or maybe Friday.
That's how worried they are about Kamala Harris losing next week.
Notice, they don't even make the case for why they think Kamala Harris is good.
That would be impossible.
Their only hope is to suppress Trump votes, to lie about him.
Don't let them do it.
Turn out the vote, and we win.
Americans see what we all see.
Kamala Harris is getting asked the same basic questions over and over again, and yet the answers are getting worse.
You know, what would you have done differently?
I don't know.
We wouldn't have done anything differently.
She gets destroyed in the press for four days.
Someone else asked her the same question.
She still doesn't know.
Again and again and again.
Can she not remember a basic talking point?
Can she not come up with something?
Why is that?
Because there's just nothing there.
Like my father said, she's just a vessel for the corruption and failure of the swamp.
And if you haven't seen it yet, the Trump campaign put out this incredible two-minute commercial and this ad this weekend.
It's a must-watch.
Check it out.
When I first came into office, I cut taxes more than any other president.
We have created 7 million new jobs, and it led to a growth like we've never seen before.
We developed the greatest economy in history by far.
When I left office, it changed.
Inflation destroyed the lives of so many people.
Interest rates went from 2% to 10%.
Millions of illegal immigrants, traffickers and drugs coming into our country.
Our country has gone to hell.
So I made a decision to run.
We're gonna make America great again, greater than ever before.
I will fight for you with every breath and I will never let you down.
I'm gonna fight like a G, it all gonna be, and if I die, I'm gonna be down free.
President Trump is literally putting his life on the line and he's willing to risk it all because he loves this country.
He is strong, he is fearless, and he is what this country needs right now.
Our cities will be safe, our streets will be clean, and our border will be secure.
We can't allow our country to be destroyed by politicians who will put their own power ahead of the interests of the American people, our freedom, and our future.
The left told me to hate Trump.
When you cut through the lies, you realize the truth.
American families were better when Donald Trump was president.
We were safer, wealthier, and stronger.
So if you love this country, if you want to stand up and fight for the future of our nation, you must re-elect Donald J. Trump.
I'm Donald J. Trump, and I approve this message. .
And lastly guys, We're getting huge wins on the issue of election integrity.
In Bucks County, PA, the GOP sued and won to get early voted extended after voters were unlawfully turned away by radical Democrat regime, it seems.
The Supreme Court sided with Virginia to keep non-citizens off the voter roll.
Think about that for a second.
Democrats are arguing to make sure non-citizens can be on the voter rolls.
These are self-identified non-citizens in Virginia.
Why would you need non-citizens to vote?
I mean, it seems like a basic thing and yet they don't care.
In Michigan, the RNC just stopped Democrats from counting 168,000 so-called duplicate ballots.
So guys, I just want you to know, we're on top of these things.
If you see something, film it, document it, alert election officials and Republican election integrity lawyers.
To do that, you can go to protectthevote.com.
That's protectthevote.com.
Again, capture these things.
If you see people lying, if you see fake election workers, if you see any kind of nonsense, Capture it on film.
Make sure the other side knows that we are watching them.
The choice is clear.
The country either permanently declines and becomes unrecognizable, or we all stand up and save it.
And you guys get the final say.
Senator Tom Cotton is coming up in just a few moments.

Well guys, joining me now, Arkansas Senator Tom Cotton.
Tom, good to have you back.
Hey Don, it's great to be back on with you.
You look like me.
We're rather unrested right now, just traveling the country going crazy.
Yeah, it's been a busy week for me.
I was out earlier this week in Nevada and Arizona for Sam Brown and Cary Lake and, of course, your dad.
And then I was in Texas yesterday with Ted Cruz, who's locked in a tight race as well.
And then take the day off for some trick-or-treating with the kids tonight, then be on a last-minute sprint this weekend like I know you have been as well.
Yeah, I get a half a day for Halloween for the kids.
At least Joe Biden made my costume easy.
I'm going to probably just cut out the bottom of a garbage can and go as that because, you know, I mean, why not go with it at this point, right?
Well, you could wear the vest that your dad had on at the rally.
Honestly, it was a good look.
You know, listen, the Biden economy and the Harris economy is so bad that a guy like my father has to work two jobs at McDonald's and as a garbage man just to make ends meet right now.
But I guess, you know, Senator, you know, in all seriousness, Joe Biden called half the country garbage.
And it was interesting because people are like, you know, you watch all the media.
Well, if you put an apostrophe here, I'm like, no, no, no.
Like, it's on video.
And by the way, if you listen to the video, it was one of the few times like he was actually very clear and lucid.
You know, he actually gets clear when the temper comes out and you can see just that absolute hatred for, you know, American people.
Kamala Harris refused to condemn it.
This isn't just a gaffe.
This is what these people genuinely think about us.
You know, what is your reaction to all of it?
Because, like, I thought it was bad with Hillary and the deplorables and irredeemables and, you know, I mean, when they've been calling us Nazis and fascists for the last, you know, few years, you know, that's pretty bad.
But, you know, now we're garbage in their minds.
What do you think?
I think it's what they call a classic Washington gaffe.
It's when a politician actually tells the truth and says what he means.
I think it's pretty clear, as you say, that this is what Joe Biden and Kamala Harris and most Democrats truly think, not just about I think that's what you saw with Joe Biden.
It's all the people who believe that Donald Trump was an effective president, who delivered on his promises, who made their lives better, and want to see him back in the White House.
And I can only imagine what they're going to say on Wednesday morning after the American people have reelected President Trump to a second term.
Yeah, I mean, how effective is the media running cover for this stuff?
I mean, it didn't really work with Hillary, and then they kind of, you know, they were able to kind of cover up a lot in 2020.
But, you know, it's not like it's a new theme.
This has been consistent for nine years, that sort of disdain and hatred for the American public.
Is it finally breaking through?
Do people finally get it?
When I look at some of these races, I'm saying, you know, They're within half a point.
I'm like, how is it even possible?
It's not like Kamala Harris has a record of success to campaign on.
It still almost doesn't matter.
What do you think is going on there?
Yeah, you know, I think it does break through, although you never know if you looked at the pages of The New York Times, or you listened to Nora O'Donnell's opening monologues on the CBS Evening News.
In those places, it's always focused on how Republicans are pouncing or seizing or reacting to what the Democrats say about our supporters.
But we live in a different time than we did, you know, 20 or 30 years ago.
These things break through on social media, and they say on the campaign trail, You know, I'm always amazed by the number of people who comment on my appearances for your dad's campaign on shows like Face the Nation or Meet the Press.
They don't exactly have the highest ratings in places like Arkansas and Montana and Nevada, but people have seen them, and that's because our friends and supporters and allies have posted them on social media, and they kind of rocket around.
The Democrats have returned yet again to their comfort place, which is calling your dad a fascist, saying Trump is Hitler, talking about how awful he and his supporters are.
And as you say, they've been saying this now for nine years, and it didn't move the needle for them in 2016, didn't do it in 2020, and it's not going to in 2024 either.
I think part of this is just that Kamala Harris has always lived in a deep blue, I mean, midnight blue navy bubble.
Most of her aides have as well.
This is their comfortable space.
This is what they always revert to.
And when they see that nothing else works because her record is so bad compared to the We're good to go.
Who will be a good steward of our economy and who will be a credible and tough commander-in-chief.
They know Donald Trump will do those things.
Kamala Harris obviously won't.
Well, I guess we know what they really think about this country, not just based on their words, but based on their actual actions.
For example, you recently revealed that Kamala Harris is using taxpayer dollars to advertise government services paid for by the American taxpayer for criminal illegal aliens.
Are these things we can fix day one with my father back in office?
Is it one of these entrenched things where it's government funded to an NGO? You don't really know where it's going.
If we get back A Republican-controlled Congress and Senate with my father in there.
Can we end this stuff once and for all?
Because that's the stuff I see on the trail.
It's like people can't believe, you know, that a person who lost a business, a loved one, their home in North Carolina gets a $750 loan from FEMA, but, you know, overnight we can send, you know...
Half a billion dollars to Ukraine.
How do we stop that?
Is that realistic or is some of that too entrenched?
We probably can't stop every single thing on day one, but we can do a heck of a lot.
Once President Trump is inaugurated on January 20th and his team starts to take control of the departments and agencies, they can stop anything that's in process.
And then moving forward with the Republican majority in the Congress and Senate as we pass the annual spending bills, we can prohibit these activities.
We can say you're not going to send money to this, that, or the other kind of It's an ideological group with an axe to grind against normal Americans.
But I agree.
It's not just President Trump supporters that they say these things about.
It's about America.
Oh, it's everyone, yeah.
Look at what Kamala Harris has said in the past about America being systemically racist, or what she said on Columbus Day about how there's a deeper, darker history of Columbus Day than just the spirit of discovery and entrepreneurship and innovation that has made America what it is.
When you call a country systemically racist, I mean, you're saying it's rotten to its core.
And most Americans don't believe that about a country.
You and I certainly don't.
But that's what she and the far left of the Democratic Party think.
It's what they've always thought.
Just in the last few years, they finally let the mask slip more and more.
So, you know, as you've been crisscrossing the country, supporting Republican Senate candidates, because I think that's so fundamental.
I mean, what we don't understand, there's so many people, you know, I love Trump.
Well, who are you voting for for Senate?
I'm like, I don't know.
I'm like, wait, no, no, no.
We need all of these things.
We need straight ticket Republicans because, you know, My father as president, without the Senate or without the House, or with, you know, the guys that are pretending to be moderate senators, you know, whether it's John Tester in Montana, who votes 98, 99% of the time with the Biden administration, these guys are designed to be crudgles, Uh, you know, you were out, I guess, with Carrie Lake in Arizona, who for the first time has taken a lead in some of those polls.
You've been with Tim Sheehy, obviously, in Montana.
He's running against John Tester.
I was with Bernie Moreno day before yesterday, and I think you were out there with him in Ohio, Dave McCormick in Pennsylvania.
Talk about what's at stake in the Senate, because, again, you know, I see sort of an overwhelming support for my father, and this is my third time around, uh, How do we wake people up to make sure that they understand that, like, Trump actually needs those guys with him?
We can't just have a majority of one in the Senate because, you know, we know who some of our senators are, and let's just say you might as well have a Democrat.
Tell us what's at stake there.
Yeah, there's a lot at stake.
And thank you for all you've done to help our Senate candidates.
You named a lot of the great ones.
We've also got Mike Rogers in Michigan, Eric Hubby in Wisconsin, Sam Brown in Nevada.
We have a few incumbents that we need to re-elect as well.
You know, your dad has endorsed Deb Fisher in Nebraska, Ted Cruz in Texas, Rick Scott in Florida.
It really is.
Jim Justice in West Virginia, but I think that one, I think he's going to run away.
I'm not too worried about that one.
I think we got that one covered.
I love Jim, but I'm like, you're fine, buddy.
You're good.
Yeah, Governor Justice and baby dogs should be fine in West Virginia.
There's a lot your dad can do when he's back in the White House and can do on his own.
But so much more has to be done with the Congress.
And it's so vital that we have a Republican majority in the House and especially in the Senate.
I mean, we obviously need both to pass legislation, like extending the great tax cuts we passed in 2017.
But in the Senate in particular, we need a healthy governing majority to ensure President Trump gets his choices for cabinets and departments and agencies confirmed and his judges and ultimately perhaps a Supreme Court justice confirmed.
And as you said, while 51 gives us the majority, It really would be nice to have 53, 54, 55, to have a little play in the joints, to have a little margin for error, and not just for these next two years, but after the midterms as well.
If you recall, we lost the House in 2018, and that led directly to your dad's first impeachment, but we held on to the Senate, and that allowed us to continue to restock his cabinet whenever he had officials leave, and allowed us to confirm judges to include Justice Amy Comey Barrett in 2020.
So it really is vital that we have A sizable governing majority in both the House and the Senate, especially the Senate, though, to make sure that he can get the people he needs in the right places.
Yeah, I think the other thing people have to understand, and maybe you can expand on this a little bit, like, there's Senate cycles that sort of are favorable and Senate cycles that are not favorable.
Like, this is the one place where we sort of have, you know, the opportunity to make gains basically for, like, the next 10 years.
I know when I was talking to Steve Daines, who's been running a lot of that, you know, obviously a senator from Montana, you know, this is the one chance where we're basically not going to be on the defensive for, like, almost a decade.
So whatever we get now, whatever we can bank now in the Senate, it's almost like the chances of losing that over the next few years is much higher.
So I think that's another component of this opportunity, why people have to get so involved in these Senate races, because we don't have another window this good for quite some time.
Yeah, absolutely.
Unlike the House, where every seat is up every two years in the Senate, only a third of the seats, 33, 34 seats up every two years.
This is the best opportunity we have to get that sizable majority.
You know, we're only have about eight incumbents up.
The Democrats have 24, 25, oftentimes in red states like Ohio or Montana, or in purple states that are now moving in the direction of your dad at the presidential level, Pennsylvania, Michigan.
Wisconsin, Arizona, Nevada.
So it's really critical that we win as many seats now as possible.
Again, not just to have the play in the joints for the next two years when it comes to vote counts, but also to ensure for the final two years of his term, we can continue to confirm judges and perhaps a Supreme Court Justice, and hopefully we'll hold the House That we'll be able to continue to pass good legislation as well.
So if you're out there in any of these states and you're thinking about, I don't know how it's possible, you're thinking about, maybe I'll vote for Sherrod Brown in Ohio and Donald Trump for president, or maybe I'll vote for Bob Casey in Pennsylvania and Donald Trump for president.
Don't do it.
I know how they talk out on the campaign trail, but people like Sherrod Brown and Bob Casey or Tammy Baldwin in Wisconsin are down the line Democratic votes.
They voted against the tax cuts in 2017.
They voted against building the wall.
They voted against all three of the Trumps.
They voted for impeachment.
They voted for impeachment twice, and if they're in power, they'll do it again for a third and probably more times, or who knows what.
Maybe using the wrong fork on the salad course.
Yeah, exactly.
I'm in all of these states.
I've been to all of them.
And if you watch the ads, it's like they're pretending to be MAGA. But then when you look at their actual voting record, if it's Bob Casey, it's like 99% with Joe Biden, Kamala Harris.
If it's Sherrod Brown in Ohio, 99% with Joe Biden.
They pretend they're like, you know, blue-collar supportive of this, and yet they're voting for a Democrat agenda that has destroyed literally so much of what our country stands for, thrown us into an economic turmoil, thrown us into wars in the Middle East, which they now gladly fund as the Democrat Party.
I mean, it's truly scary, but again, because they out-raise us so often, you know, some of these races, as you know, you know, five to one, ten to one, you know, they can flood the zone I mean, it's a huge lie, and we just have to make sure that people understand that.
Yeah, absolutely.
I mean, I chuckle too when I'm in places like Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, and I've got a ball game on at night at the hotel, and I see the ads pop up about how Bob Casey worked with Trump or Tammy Baldwin worked with Trump.
It's like, wait, the guy that you're calling Hitler now?
So you're running ads telling people to work with you because you can work with the latter-day Hitler.
I mean, come on, give me a break.
That's like the worst Hitler ever.
If you're willing to work with Hitler, shouldn't that be disqualifying?
I mean, if these people are working with Hitler, I mean, give me a break.
And it's just a perfect example, though, that whatever the polls say, look at a politician and his campaign's actions.
Their actions tell you that they know they're on the back foot because people want change.
They're tired of runaway inflation and declining wages and a wide-open border and two wars in Europe and the Middle East.
And they know that when President Trump was in office, we had prosperity and we had a peaceful, stable world.
That's what they wanted.
That's why those Democrats are now resorting to these false ads saying they're Donald Trump's wingman.
They were right there along with him, working to secure the border and rebuild the military and get the economy going.
Don't believe it for a second.
So, you know, Senator, as you see some of the stuff going on right now, obviously, you know, there's always going to be some games afoot.
Some of it probably, you know, clerical era, some of it perhaps real.
I know the RNC's filed like 150 lawsuits.
They've won a couple.
I mean, you know, this isn't 2020.
We're sort of on our game.
You know, I sort of encourage everyone, if you see something shady, like video it, record it, document it.
Let's go after these people and we shall.
But You know, we also can't jump at every conspiracy theory because I feel like half of the stuff is designed to bait us, to go down a road, to distract us from what's really going on.
So, you know, don't get discouraged.
Make sure you vote.
Bring your friends.
But Congress is now reportedly investigating ActBlue.
That's the Democrat, you know, mega fundraising operation because of their so-called, you know, political identity theft.
What can you tell us about the details of that?
I mean, the left is always up to something.
Now that Congress is investigating, I think that's a great start.
Hopefully that keeps people honest when they realize they're going to get caught or they're going to be on video and we have people watching the polls.
Maybe they don't take that risk anymore to put Cacklin Kamala in office.
It may not be worth it for them to destroy your country, end up in endless wars, have tampons in boys' bathrooms.
I don't think it's worth it.
It wouldn't be for me, even if I was a Democrat.
What can you tell us about what's going on as it relates to ActBlue?
You know, ActBlue has always been a shady operation, but even before ActBlue came along, the Democrats played fast and loose with online contributions, for instance.
The Obama campaign, I think, had to pay a pretty sizable fine in 2008 for credit card fraud because they weren't using the security codes in your credit card.
ActBlue, for a long time, has done the same thing.
I mean, you can't do anything On the internet or over the phone with a credit card without entering your three or four-digit security code, but you've never had to do that with ActBlue because it helps facilitate fraud.
So we want to look into it in Congress.
I think maybe even more importantly, when President Trump is in office, the government needs to investigate it.
Obviously, Joe Biden's Department of Justice would never investigate it, but this is an area of potential serious fraud.
Yeah, like money coming in from Iran and Russia, you know, and all the people that accuse us of being agents for, they all seem very vested in, you know, Democrat victories.
I think we all know why.
I mean, a weak America is great for our enemies.
How do you get Congress to do that?
I know they've started it, but obviously they'll slow-roll it, they'll hope there's some sort of turnover.
How do you create an urgency for the American people or the actual people who are supposed to investigate this to actually make it happen, to actually follow through, to make sure there's real consequences?
It's not like, well, it's too late now because they won and they spent millions of dollars that influenced states and perhaps changed the trajectory of a race.
How do we get to it before?
Well, it's one example of why it's so important to elect Republican majorities to hold on to it in the House.
We have someone like Jim Jordan, who's a bulldog, looking into these things, and to elect a Republican majority in the Senate, because we control the committees, we control the subpoena power to make sure that we can investigate these matters.
I mean, look, there's serious consequences if you don't cooperate.
We just saw the end of one of those consequences when Steve Bannon walked down to the federal prison because he wouldn't cooperate with the January 6 mock trials in the House of Representatives.
Seems to never happen, though, when Democrats defy Congress.
You know, I remember Eric Holder, he got a contempt of Congress citation, and I don't remember him going to a federal prison.
Well, yeah, I saw yesterday, you know, some person, you know, Democrat operative pretending to be a certified poll watcher going around telling people they can't do this.
I remember when they threw a guy that was a conservative guy for a meme.
They jokingly said, hey, vote tomorrow after election.
They threw the guy in jail for months.
But a Democrat operative can have a team of people pretending to be certified election workers, giving people misinformation and discouraging and dissuading people from actually voting.
I mean, those people need to go to jail.
And I think your recommendation is actually a pretty sound one.
If you see something that seems suspect, you can just take out your phone and film it.
You know, there's been reports from the Philadelphia area, for instance, that they were cutting off the line from people who were standing in line and saying you couldn't vote, you'd have to come back the next day.
I don't know exactly what the Pennsylvania law is, but in Arkansas, if you're in line at the poll closing time, you get to vote.
I suspect it's like that in Pennsylvania.
It is.
If you're in line, stay in line.
Don't leave.
Don't let you, you know, I guess...
I think it's seven o'clock on election day, maybe eight o'clock on election day.
But in the early voting, it was like till five o'clock.
And yeah, it was Bucks County, Pennsylvania.
We actually sued because the last day of early voting, I guess, was Tuesday.
The RNC went after them.
They sued these people that were removed from line at like two o'clock in the afternoon, you know, three hours before they were supposed to shut down.
We won.
And basically in that county, they now have an extra three days of early voting.
So if you're in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, as a Republican, I think you got like another two days now Of early voting to go bank your vote.
And I recommend people do that.
If you have early voting, do that.
So there's not a line on election day.
So something can't magically go wrong.
And they're sending people around in a panic, ultimately discouraging them from actually voting.
So I would encourage the early voting.
Get it in there.
Get it out there.
But it's refreshing to see the RNC actually stepping up and taking care of at least some of these things as they pop up.
Yeah, absolutely.
And I, too, I encourage everyone who's watching, go out and early vote, you know, either on Friday or Saturday.
Some states even have it open on Monday as well.
I know that for some people it's a rite of passage, you know, a civic right to go vote on Election Day.
But don't let life's contingencies interfere with voting for President Trump and your Republican nominees for Senate and Congress.
You never know when your kid's going to get sick, when your mom might slip and fall, you might have an emergency at the workplace or an accident on the road.
Bank your early votes in the next couple of days.
Don't have to contend with all of life's contingencies or very long lines on Election Day.
Yeah, and for those watching, I've seen this.
I was out campaigning.
Adam Laxalt was running for governor in Nevada midterm cycle four years ago.
And literally, the most Republican county in the state, Elko County, up in the northwest of Nevada, They had, like, an unprecedented snowstorm, like, you know, a hundred-year storm that day, you know, the X number of thousand Republican voters didn't turn up, and we lost a governor's race by, like, it was, like, 2,300 votes.
It was, like, an absurdly small margin that we should have won or would have overwhelmingly won had those people been able to get to the polls.
So, like, don't take any chances.
Make sure you get out there and make sure you're banking these votes.
Absolutely.
I was just in Nevada a couple days ago with Sam Brown.
He was telling that exact story about Adam's race when the big snowstorm hit and making it another reason for why you should go out to an early vote.
Just get your vote banked.
Make sure it's going to count.
It makes a big difference for President Trump and our Republicans running for Senate and House.
Yeah, Adam was actually Senate, so it cost us a Senate seat, not even governor's rights.
I mean, so a really big deal.
But another story I saw that you highlighted is this report that shows that Kamala Harris raised concern that our intelligence report had gender bias in the way they referenced interactions between female leaders.
I mean, is this really something we should be spending our time on?
I mean, is this, you know, we got wars all over the place breaking out.
We have inflation that's through the roof.
We have interest rates that are crushing people.
You know, I have sticker shock when I go to McDonald's and I understand what my last name is.
What do you make of this?
Is this just going to be, if it's Kamala Harris, is this just going to be like the woke presidency where we focus on every asinine, immaterial issue for the sake of virtue signaling rather than the American people?
Yeah, it really is remarkable to think that Kamala Harris, if she gets elected, would have an even more woke administration than Joe Biden does.
But this recent story is a perfect example.
And for your viewers who haven't seen it, so It said that shortly after she became vice president, she was reading through some reports about foreign leaders.
I've seen those on the Intelligence Committee, or, you know, I watched Kamala Harris up close for four years.
I can tell you she's not a serious or credible commander-in-chief.
But, you know, these reports, they'll say, you know, they can be friendly leaders, they can be adversarial leaders, but they say things about personal style.
Oh, he's good at English.
He's not good at English.
He likes to use a translator.
He's hard-headed.
He's soft-spoken.
He doesn't say much.
He talks a lot, so on and so forth.
And she didn't like the way that The personal styles and manners of two female foreign heads of states was characterized.
So she demanded to have an intelligence community wide review of all assessments of female leaders around the world.
She's worried about gendered language.
And then the best part, the coup de grace, to give you a sense of what you'd have under President Harris, is that the review comes back, it was found there is no pattern of bias or so-called gendered language, yet they still made all of these intelligence officers undergo under diversity training to be more sensitive to such language.
You just can't make it up.
Yeah, I've spoken to a bunch of my friends that are, you know, either operators or former operators, you know, guys that are doing real stuff in bad places.
And the amount of gender and sensitivity training that they go through, it was mind-boggling.
He was telling me this, and I was like, well, so how many, you know, women had you ever worked in the field with?
He goes, none.
I was like, well, how many years were you?
He was like, 10 years, like...
And I'm like, so you're spending hours a month doing these things to have never actually experienced it.
I mean, again, it just, it doesn't seem like great use of our time.
I mean, those guys probably be better off training to kill bad guys or, you know, language school, whatever it may be.
It's just crazy that these are our priorities still today.
It really is.
And that is the kind of thing, to go back to a point we were discussing earlier, that really could stop on day one, especially in our military and our intelligence agencies.
It's just to stop all that nonsense.
Look, we all have expectations of people who work in government or in our companies that we're going to have an equal opportunity environment.
There's going to be no harassment, no discrimination on the basis of race or sex or national origin.
That's all you have to say.
Just say, this is an equal opportunity environment.
We don't tolerate harassment or discrimination.
If it's detected, you should report it, and there are going to be severe consequences.
Period.
Go back to work, especially if your work is keeping this country safe.
You don't need to go through gendered language bias training or white privilege walks or anything else that wastes millions and millions of taxpayer dollars and man hours when these people should be working to keep the country safe.
Yeah, I mean, I guess the...
And they take it so much further.
You're a veteran.
So, you know, I imagine you've been following some of what's going on.
I know I talked about it on the show last week in the Veterans Affairs Department.
We found these, like, literally, like...
Insane cartoons.
When I say insane, I mean South Park wouldn't be able to do anything with it because it's already way past where even South Park would go, and they don't often miss talking about how to interrogate veterans on their gender identity and pronouns.
As a veteran, can you talk about how we can reverse that kind of damage?
Because I feel that's, A, demoralizing to the people that are in.
You see that.
They're like, hey, if she wins, we're leaving.
The experienced guys, the operators, the pilots, the guys that we spend millions of dollars training, they've had enough of this stuff, and yet it doesn't stop them from doing it.
I saw one About literally, like, the benefits of, like, prosthetic organs, not legs, not arms, for transgender, you know, wounded veterans.
It's lunacy.
But Biden and Harris have done what they've done to our veterans and how...
How can we get them the best care possible?
Shouldn't that be the priority?
It's so crazy to me.
I literally...
A prosthetic man part for a trans female...
I'm like, I don't know.
Is this really something we need to be making videos on?
You know, the one person of the, you know, hundreds of thousands in the military that actually had, like, I'm sure we can get some liberal in Hollywood to independently fund the prosthetic for that person, but it also feels like there's a demoralization component of that because the guys you actually want to be warfighters, the guys that are the patriots, they see that stuff and they're like, I'm not fighting for this.
Why would I fight for this?
I don't believe in any of this crap.
If I say something about it, I'll be demoted, I'll never be promoted, I'll be fired, whatever it may be.
It seems like we're destroying ourselves from within with this nonsense.
Yeah, you know, I gotta say, though, it doesn't surprise me to see your reporting on this from the VA. Every summer, the VAs around the country, too, including Little Rock, are raising the pride flag up their flagpole.
One of the only flags flying there should be the US flag, maybe a state or military unit flag or a POW flag, but not a flag that's designed to send an ideological message.
And look, there are predictable patterns of what our veterans need when they go to our veterans' hospitals.
You know, Vietnam veterans, We have high blood pressure or they may have other illnesses that are associated with aging.
Veterans from our age may be dealing with toxic exposure.
They may be dealing with a missing arm or missing leg or traumatic brain injuries.
That's what we need our VA to be focused on.
That's where we need to put our resources to make sure that we have enough experts.
And professionals dealing with them to make sure that we're getting everyone through promptly, not coming up with these obscure, esoteric, woke obsessions, which, as you say, might apply to one person in a two-million-man army, much less the many millions of veterans we have over the years.
It's not surprising coming from this VA, though.
I will say this, again, it's something that can happen on day one.
It's also something that a Republican majority in Congress can legislate, so the next time there's a Democratic president, you don't have this kind of thing happening again.
Yeah, so many of the veterans I speak to, I mean, they're like, your father was really fixing things.
They were going in the right direction.
We were getting that kind of care.
We had the ability to get care elsewhere if we needed to.
And he goes, the second it left, it all went back.
Is that just about power and money that, you know, if you're offloading some of this stuff, it's a shot to the bureaucracy?
What's going on with that?
Because you think like, hey, if you made real gains, like...
Just lock that in.
We can lock it in with legislation.
You can also lock it in, though, with getting rid of a lot of these ideological Democrats who are in the civil service.
As your dad has said, there are many great civil service.
There's great soldiers, there's great CIA officers, there's lots of folks out there who are trying to do the right thing.
They don't even have to be Republican or MAGA. They just have to know that they are servants.
They are not ideological warriors working on behalf of the Democratic Party.
Unfortunately, there's a lot of those out there, especially in Washington, D.C. And one priority that I know your dad has, and that I suspect most of his cabinet and agency heads will have as well, is to move those people along.
They don't deserve to be working in these government departments and agencies on behalf of the American people, because they're not working on behalf of the American people.
They're working on behalf of the far left.
I mean, is this all, you know, the insanity there with the VA? I mean, is this something we can investigate to make sure that it stops, also stop using, you know, contractors or providers who are enabling all of this stuff?
Because, again, it's all funded by taxpayer dollars.
We see what's going on again, whether it's recruitment, morale, or otherwise.
And I would think that if you start investigating it and you'll bring it to light, you don't see it on the news.
Like I said, it literally was like, wow, it's not South Park, but it's far better in terms of humor, except for it's really happening, so it was sad, with all of this.
Because again, it's taxpayer-funded, and I don't think any taxpayer thinks that this is the right way to go with our taxpayer dollars in the Veterans Administration.
Yeah, absolutely.
And it's something that not only Congress can investigate, but also once President Trump is back in the White House, that his agency and department heads can do.
And you can do it like most of this stuff they try to keep under the radar.
They don't want to be exposed on a show like yours, or certainly in the New York Times, the Washington Post, or Fox News, or what have you.
But once you have...
President Trump's cabinet in place, and they're looking at their department or agency's past practices and what they've done, they can expose it as well.
They can go out and have a press conference in March or April and say, look, I've had a 60 or 90-day review of the department.
This is what I've found.
We're stopping all of this today.
And I'm asking Congress to legislate on it as well so it never happens again in the future.
Well, I think we've got to make that one happen.
So, sort of funny, I remember back in 2020 when the New York Times staff erupted over your op-ed calling for the National Guard to address violent rioting.
I mean, these people lost their minds.
They were threatening to quit for literally publishing an op-ed from a sitting United States Senator in the New York Times.
And now, The left is erupting over newspapers like the Washington Post, like USA Today, not making an endorsement.
Can you connect those two things and how it relates in basically the overall decline in, you know, let's say journalistic standards in very loose quotes, because I think I don't know that there are journalistic standards.
I think there's just standards of propaganda and levels of it.
It is amazing.
Four years ago, I had to write an op-ed to cause a bunch of lib journalists to lose their mind.
And now four years on, an op-ed doesn't even have to be written to cause lib journalists to lose their mind.
They just lose their mind by themselves.
It's the flip side of the same coin, which is...
One, you know, these journalists are all liberal, and they expect their institutions to be liberal as well.
You know, it's one thing for the editorial page to have an editorial outlook, but you see now that the news departments do as well.
And any time their institution, whether it's the New York Times, the Washington Post, or Network News, they stray From the left-wing line, the employees rise up in rebellion.
And it should cause you, if it hasn't already, cause you to question everything else they do and they say.
You had a lot of supposed news reporters at the Washington Post reacting with outrage that the editorial page didn't endorse Kamala Harris.
Well, what do we think about their reporting when they're out there talking about Donald Trump or talking about Tim Sheehy or talking about other Republicans?
Yeah, I mean, the outrage and people quitting and this, and Bezos even having to step in and be like, hey, we may have to actually have some people that don't just view the world through the eyes of a radical leftist.
But it should show you that these places are still trusted for news.
It's like, well, why would you be?
Why would you trust someone who's so slanted that they'd quit their job because you didn't endorse someone who By the way, six months ago, they themselves would refer to as an incompetent.
They can't believe she's in that place.
She's inarticulate, doesn't belong there, was a checkbox candidate.
I mean, it wasn't like these people thought highly of Kamala Harris, but once she can be president, all of a sudden, you know, she's some sort of brilliant mind.
It's pretty special.
Just go to, if you're watching, just go to the New York Times website and look at the headlines.
You don't even have to read the stories.
I wouldn't inflict that on you.
Just look at the headlines.
And you'll have to scroll for some time before you find a headline that is not anti-Trump or pro-Harris.
And that headline is probably going to be something like, you know, the Yankees losing in game five or last minute costume ideas for your kids or the best recipe for, for, I mean, it is non-stop every single day in overdrive trying to stop Donald Trump and trying to elevate Kamala Harris.
Yeah, no, it's pretty nuts.
I want to get your take.
Mitch McConnell is stepping down as GOP Senate leader.
I think that's great, but I want to make sure that vacuum isn't just backfilled by someone who thinks exactly like Mitch McConnell.
What's your outlook on the future of Senate leadership?
What do you think that process will be like?
Is it just the kind of thing because he controls the purse strings and has, that's sort of why he was able to stay in power for so long, sort of despite being really at odds with the American people?
You know, you've maybe seen me do it with a survey about, hey, you know, going around the country, I've now surveyed 100,000 people live in audiences.
Like, you know, raise your hand if you think, like Mitch McConnell, and that Ukraine war is the number one issue for Republicans across the country.
You know, I will say, you know, I've gotten three responses.
One misunderstood the question, so it was a double negative.
One person was from Kiev, Ukraine, so he did it.
And the other worked at the board of Raytheon.
So three out of a hundred thousand, you know, the Raytheon guy, I get it, he's getting paid.
The guy from Kiev, I understand it.
And the other guy just didn't understand the question.
But, you know, That's pretty big polling.
Basically zero out of 100,000 people.
How do we make sure that that vacuum isn't filled with more of the same nonsense and you don't have someone, as he said last week, well, I'd be spending more time arguing with Republicans than Democrats, which, you know, obviously a shot across the bow at my father and what would ultimately be his agenda.
Yeah.
So I think the biggest change I've seen over the last eight years, since your father was elected in 2016, is not in leadership, it's in the membership.
And leadership will often reflect the membership in the Senate or any legislative body.
And if you just look at the senators that we've elected since 2016, you can see the president's influence on our party and a very beneficial influence, helping a lot of Republicans come around I think we're good to
go.
It's going to work very well with President Trump because you've seen that shift in membership.
You saw it faster in the House, again, because the House elects all of its members every two years.
So change takes a little bit longer in coming to the Senate.
But just look at some of the senators that we've elected since 2016, whether it's J.D. Vance or Eric Schmidt or Katie Britt.
I mean, we've got great new senators who have strong relationships with your father, and I think you're going to be Very effective legislators with President Trump back in the White House and Republican majorities in the Senate and the House.
Yeah, and I think this year's roster, you know, for this coming week, I mean, pretty amazing.
When you think about, you know, when you got Tim Sheehy, when you have a Bernie Moreno, I mean, the list goes on and on.
I mean, but the guys that could be incumbent sort of freshman senators, Carrie Lake, I mean, these are strong, you know, Havde, you know, it goes on and on.
I mean, Sam Brown, all of these guys could be great.
And they don't necessarily sort of represent the old stodginess of the old school Senate that was just sort of this...
You know, massive immovable vessel that didn't necessarily ever, you know, didn't ever have the pulse of the people as much as, say, my father does or the MAGA movement does.
Yeah, I think that's right.
We're about to elect a great class of new senators, and you mentioned some of them, and there's other as well.
And again, they're all out there.
They're all endorsed by President Trump.
They want him to win.
In many states, they're working hand in glove together to register the vote earlier this year, and they'll turn out the vote, like Dave McCormick in Pennsylvania.
Yeah, Dave McCormick would be great.
I was with him last Sunday.
Yeah, so I think it's going to be a very strong collaborative relationship with President Trump and Republican majorities if we can get everyone across the finish line.
And it's going to start right away, you know, working on extending the great tax cut bill from 2017, securing the border, populating the President's cabinet, maybe having a Supreme Court nominee come up as early as next year.
So what's your message to Americans who haven't yet voted that, you know, on why they need to get out and support President Trump and up and down ballot Republicans, you know, Senate Republicans, you know, House Republicans, school boards, dog catcher, legislature?
What's the final close?
I would remind them, I would point out to them that this is a very unusual election.
It's the first time in more than 100 years since you have a former president running for the White House again.
TR was the last one in 1912.
So this is not like electing Donald Trump in 2016.
You don't have to take a flyer on him.
You don't have to believe his promises.
You don't have to listen to his pledges of what he's going to do in the future.
All you have to do is look at what he already did.
As they say in sports, scoreboard.
You can't taunt someone who's ahead on the scoreboard.
And Donald Trump is far, far ahead on the scoreboard compared to Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.
We had low prices, high wages, a secure border, and a peaceful, stable world.
And under Kamala Harris and Joe Biden, we've had high prices, We've had declining rural wages, the borders wide open with 10 million illegals, and we have two major wars in Europe and the Middle East.
So if you want the peace and prosperity and good times back from the first Trump administration, elect President Trump.
And if you want to make sure that he can deliver on that agenda again, you have to elect Republican senators and congressmen to help him.
Well, Senator, I really appreciate it.
Guys, Tom Cotton, check him out.
Tom, I really appreciate everything that you're doing out there.
It's good to be in the fight with all of you guys.
It's great to see everyone actually stepping up towards that common goal, towards the unity that we've been looking for for quite some time.
It just feels so different this time around.
And I think as long as everyone gets out there, everyone brings a friend, everyone does their part, I think we can overwhelm the insanity and take back our country.
So really appreciate everything that you're doing.
Thanks a lot.
I totally agree.
And thank you, Don, for all your efforts.
Maybe we'll cross paths on the campaign trail these last four or five days.
It wouldn't surprise me.
We're everywhere.
It's great to have it, though.
Again, everyone's so motivated.
The energy's great.
I just love seeing it.
All right.
Good to be on with you.
Thanks a lot.

And guys, I'll talk to you on Monday, the night before the election.
It's gonna be nuts, but we gotta get out there and win this thing.
And we'll close out...
The show with one more of the behind-the-scenes footage from earlier this week at Madison Square Garden.
Enjoy, guys.
Happy Halloween.
Don't eat all your kids' candy.
I will see you soon.
Well, let me tell you something, Trumpomaniacs!
Welcome to the house that Hulkamania built!
But today, Trumpomaniacs, the energy in here is something like I've never felt.
The energy of all these Trumpomaniacs is the most powerful force in the universe.
And today, this is Donald Trump's house, brother.
We'll be right back.
It's really exciting to see all these people that work at all these events all over to be at Madison Square Garden, like the biggest arena in the world.
And they're actually doing a Trump event here.
It's kind of crazy, actually.
You've been on the front lines as much as anyone, on the ground, investigating everything from Butler and everything else.
We were 15 feet away from the present.
He was like there and we were like over his shoulder on the left side, 15 feet.
And we captured everything that happened in the aftermath with the investigation and we had footage right next to him.
Ever since then, this is the kind of energy you get here.
Everywhere we've been with him.
It's wild.
And people are really rooting for him.
Even if maybe they don't agree with all of his politics, they're really rooting for him.
They're rooting for his family.
They're rooting for the people that, you know, have put everything on the line to help him lead the country.
So it's super exciting.
Live Madison Square Garden.
Tell us what's its case for the economy in the United States?
Yeah, there couldn't be a bigger choice for the economy between a centrally planned Soviet-style economy that has failed the American people over the past four years and the prosperity that Donald Trump gave us from 2016 to 2020.
He's going to do it again.
They want the Trump economic agenda to rise wages and the cost of living crisis.
Yeah, it's a-- I'm so excited about this because it's going to be deregulation.
These regulations, I think the Biden administration has put in 100,000 pages into the federal regulations this year.
President Trump last time said he was going to take out three for every one that went in and ended up taking out seven.
This time he says he's going to do ten.
So that'll bring that down.
We're going to go back to energy dominance.
America is going to start drilling again.
It's insanity.
Senator Sullivan from Alaska says that the Biden administration has sanctioned Alaska more than they have written.
And the hydrocarbons, our economy runs off hydrocarbons.
We're going to get inflation down, which will bring interest rates down.
We're going to get real wages up.
The ability to be able to buy a home, start a family, have a middle-class life, They start the savings process, and Biden-Harris has ruined that.
Housing prices, or monthly payments, are up 100% since they came into office, so a big component of that will be getting interest rates down.
Another component, President Trump's a builder, so he is going to make it a priority on day one to work on cutting regulation.
For a lot of the building projects and set aside federal land for new building.
So I think it's going to be very, very exciting.
Excellent.
Scott Best of the Room was brilliant.
My answer is a round.
We're going to pass it to your first agenda.
Thank you for the time.
It's Terrace K. Williams.
Y'all get out there and vote for Donald Trump.
This is the last chance to save America.
If you want to be able to afford to feed your children, vote for Trump.
If you want to be able to pay your rent and mortgage on time, vote for Donald Trump.
If you want to be able just to Live peacefully in this country and to just, you know, live in a free country.
Vote for Donald Trump because this will no longer be a free country.
We probably won't have a country if we don't vote for Donald Trump.
It is that serious.
Vote for Donald Trump.
Put your feelings to the side and vote for Trump to save America.
The Laurel Madison Square Garden!
Are you guys ready to take your country back?
Are you sick of the insanity?
Guys, this is not my first rodeo.
This is the third go around, but you think this could have ever happened four or eight years ago in the heart of New York City?
The king of New York is back to reclaim the city that he built!
My father changed the skyline of this city.
He fixed the things that incompetent bureaucrats couldn't handle.
He did that against all odds.
He did it for our country, too, and now everyone recognizes it.
What's unique about this election, folks, you've had four years under both leaders.
The media would like to pretend that Kamala Harris started her political career about a month ago in a coup, the most democratic process to ever not have a single vote, She's going to be a moderate, folks.
She's going to be a moderate.
A radical San Francisco liberal, the daughter of a Marxist professor, is now magically going to be a moderate.
No one's buying it anymore.
You know why?
Because they've been lying to you for the last nine years and you're not buying their crap anymore.
You've had enough!
The fact that I could drive here today with my father for like 25 blocks and watch the streets of New York lined up with red MAGA hats tells us everything you need to know.
You had Four years under Donald Trump.
And despite the most vicious opposition from the media, from Big Tech, from the Democrats, and even from the weakling Republicans, you got results.
We got peace deals done.
Our enemies weren't invading their neighbors.
The economy grew.
Inflation was next to nothing.
And then...
Kamala Harris and Joe Biden took over, and everything went to hell like that!
I keep watching it in the news.
It's amazing.
Kamala Harris is going to fix all these things.
I say, you know what?
Why hasn't she started fixing them?
You know, you've had four years.
Why didn't you maybe get going?
You're going to wait until January 20th?
Americans are suffering.
People can't make rent.
Businesses are going under.
Grocery prices are too expensive.
I tell a story.
Last summer, last summer, I was coming back from a fishing trip with two of my boys, and we went to McDonald's, and it was $48 for a 10-year-old, a 14-year-old, and me.
And guys, let me tell you, if Donald Trump Jr.
has sticker shock at McDonald's, we have a serious problem.
It does not have to be this way, guys.
We can change it, but it's gonna take all of you.
You know, these days, you know, everyone's a tough guy.
Everyone's a tough guy on the keyboard, on the internet, you know, everyone's a badass.
But when you get shot in the face and you come back defiant, ready to fight, that's a badass.
That's the guy!
That's the guy that can fix the problems that we have.
That's the guy that's gonna keep our enemies in check.
That's a guy that's gonna fight for each and every one of you.
He's done it once.
Let's send him back to Washington DC with an overwhelming mandate to fix the nonsense once and for all.
Guys, look at the people who have spoken here tonight.
And look at some of the people who are still coming.
When did you think you'd be able to get RFK Jr., Tulsi Gabbard, Elon Musk?
People from all different walks of life, incredible skill sets, whether it be health, whether it be technology, everything.
You have them on one unified ticket.
Think about that.
Compare that to Kamala Harris and Tampon Tim.
It ain't the same, folks.
Timmy ain't fixing anything and neither is Kamala.
We have a once in a lifetime opportunity to change To change Washington.
To put in common sense practices.
To put Americans first, because they're not first right now.
The Democrat Party has forgotten about Americans.
Rather than cater to Americans, they decided, you know what?
It would just be easier to replace them with people who will be reliable voters.
The insanity has to stop.
And the fact that we can pack Madison Square Garden in the heart of New York City shows me that the spirit of the American people is there.
That same spirit my father showed on July 13th, that's the spirit of America.
That's the spirit we need going into Election Day.
So for the next nine days, Each and every one of you, you line up like you're the third monkey on line for the Ark and it's starting to rain.
You vote, you vote early, and then you bring your friends so that we can take back our country once and for all.
And when we do that, guys, We're not just going to make America great again.
We're going to make the world great.
We're going to make the world safe.
We're going to fix it all.
Get out there, guys, and just like you're going to fight, get out there and vote, vote, vote!
