	You know, back when I was in the academy We would follow every toast with a song
	And the song goes on And the song goes on
	And the song goes on The American president is doomed and little old men can barely move.
	If he moves too quick, he'll topple just like a domino.
	He's got that sinister smile and thinks he just might win the bet.
	But he's just hanging on, dangling like Hunter's cigarette.
	A hundred times with a hookah pipe stay Way-oh, way-oh, way-oh, way-oh
	Walk like a Joe Biden Go, go!
	Wow!
	Hey!
	And when he bores at Force One, he spins around and he hits the floor.
	He's got the moves.
	He hits the deck, then he hits some more.
	All the Dems are so sick of Joe, they really would like to see him end.
	He sh** his pants.
	When he went to the Vatican All the kids in the DNC say
	Oe-oh, oe-oh, oe-oh, oe-oh Slide your feet up the street
	Hump your back Stiffen your arms, don't pull them back
	Life's hard, you know Oe-oh
	when entering in the cab If you wanna know where it stops, it ends in dementia
	And the cops is singing, dancing When finding the confidential docs
	And they arrest all his men While Putin laughs in the Kremlin
	And the Chinese know He's owned by them and Ukrainians

	Good, I'm a girthy Italian.
	Oh, come on now.
	He's saying that because he's been, he's lost weight and he's looking very slim and so he's fishing for compliments.
	I put on five since I last saw you, seriously.
	Really?
	Pure muscle?
	No, actual pure sausage and peppers and pizza crust and raw dough.
	That's the direction with the sausage coming.
	Well, aside from Nikki Haley, that brings us to the debate stream tonight.
	It absolutely is a sausage fest.
	I mean, look, we're gonna have Chris Christie on screen.
	We'll do a side-by-side.
	It'll make you feel good about yourself.
	You'll feel good about life decisions.
	Boy, the fangs, they're out early.
	It's gonna be a fun night!
	I'm your gay aunt.
	I'm supposed to be sassy.
	Oh, we're a couple.
	So look, there's a lot to get to here tonight.
	First off, you guys can comment.
	What do you think we can expect here tonight?
	And I know a lot of you are saying, why do we really care?
	People are not super enthusiastic about this debate because not a whole lot changed since the last debate.
	As far as money raised, as far as the polls switching, Donald Trump is still leading by well into the double digits.
	But look, I want you guys to focus on one thing here tonight.
	The media, okay?
	The media, we have everyone combing MSNBC, CNN, all of social media, the meltdowns that are going to be happening.
	These people are proxies for Donald Trump tonight.
	How they choose to attack, or if they choose to try and ingratiate themselves to the Trump voters, that'll be interesting.
	But the media is not going to give anyone a fair shake.
	Remember, I've always told you this, it doesn't matter if you're Trump, if you're George W. Bush, if you're Ron DeSantis, whoever has an R next to their name is going to get the Trump treatment, period, and you will see it on display tonight for everyone to see, especially because they are scared.
	They are scared when you look at the recent polls.
	Before I go to the drinking game rules, the recent Washington Post-ABC poll, to give you an idea.
	So there's the RCP average.
	Donald Trump is ahead by about 1.4, I believe.
	1.4 points.
	The recent Washington Post-ABC poll, let me bring this up here because all the references are lottowithcrowder.com.
	What is the new, do you have it there?
	Yeah, I've got it right now.
	So it's got Trump 52, Biden 42.
	Yeah, give us the spread on that one.
	That's ten points.
	Yeah, ten points.
	Not a math genius, but that's ten points.
	Guapo ABC has Trump up by ten points.
	That's the most recent poll.
	Yep.
	Not a bastion of conservatism.
	Now, here's some context.
	If you look at the last elections, right, with Washington Post, ABC, September 2015.
	Clinton, she was up by three. Biden, September 2019, was up by 17. So that scale matters.
	Trump being ahead by any points is more than down by 17.
	Yeah, that's a 27 point difference. And how did they explain it? Even Washington Post, ABC, I was
	reading through it and they're like, we basically didn't get to the right people.
	They were saying this variability in the poll.
	This isn't the normal poll, this is probably an outlier poll.
	I know that we just paid a whole bunch of money to get this thing out there, but it doesn't really reflect accurately what the issues are.
	It literally said something like... Yeah, Washington Post, ABC, they had to apologize for doing a bad job.
	Their own poll!
	And by doing a bad job, you mean they basically just asked people what they thought and didn't spin it.
	This poll didn't work.
	We didn't have the right ball bearings.
	It's all ball bearings nowadays, kids.
	Hit the like button if you're watching on YouTube.
	Okay, we're going to post the drinking game rules here in a second, which I don't even know if we have to.
	I mean, we have to let people know the YouTube dump with the drinking game rules.
	So if you're watching on YouTube and at any point you see this, That means head on over to Rumble, that's our home, and they're being attacked by international governments right now.
	They are, yes.
	Drinking Game Rules for tonight.
	Bring them up, Toolman.
	Alright, they are.
	If Trump is mentioned, the word indictment is used.
	Drink.
	Christie has a fake tough guy moment.
	That's gonna be a lot.
	Vivek attacks anybody.
	Well.
	DeSantis talks using his thumb.
	Yep.
	If finished drink, someone brings up Ronald Reagan and they are at the Reagan Library.
	I'm tossed.
	Really?
	Also, anytime there's a thug life moment, you have to finish it.
	Oh yeah, that's true.
	Last time I was there, I was there with Alan Covert of the Adams and uh, what's his name?
	Ron Howard's brother.
	Clint Howard's brother.
	At the Ronald Reagan Library, there's a bizarre text.
	Did you say Alan Combs?
	Alan Covert, not Alan Combs.
	He's dead.
	I know, but you said last time.
	There was a singer of Smash Mouth, and I only found out after we did a Smash Mouth sketch this week.
	Like, you know he's dead.
	And we're like, nah, we gotta run it.
	Like, you and I, we did a five minute riff on Sinead O'Connor, like, you know she died, right?
	I was like, no, I didn't.
	And Nick's like, I knew!
	He's like, what do you think I laid into?
	That's why I did it.
	I got drunk for two days when I saw that.
	Celebratory bender?
	Well, you don't drink to make a bad day good, only to make a good day better.
	And I think that was one of those days... If I don't ever have to hear... The next time Conor McGregor walks out, I consider it a win.
	Does he play her stuff?
	He does, but he replaced her with Melissa Etheridge, so now it's come to my window.
	There's another lesbian, I don't know.
	Alright, we do have some montages here, some clips to show you guys, because Donald Trump skipped this debate.
	That's a tactical decision, and by the way, I would say is right of him to do.
	He did it to speak to the UAW workers, and so we've been working on this.
	We're going to actually come back to this later.
	Let me tell you this, I think this is a smart move, because Donald Trump, I was shocked when we covered that election.
	He won Michigan, he won the Midwest.
	I'm just hoping that he's not pandering to the UAW, because if you pander to the UAW, you're actually screwing all of the other workers.
	In the Midwest.
	So I believe that we have this montage, right Gerald?
	They have a Trump montage for you over there?
	No, they have the current event montage.
	Let me give you quickly, they're putting together a clip montage of Donald Trump's speech, but I was listening to it and talking with the guys beforehand.
	He isn't bowing down to the UAW.
	You and I were talking about this before.
	He can go there and support the working class citizens, the base, the people who are the members of the UAW, without actually supporting the leadership of the UAW.
	He did a really good job of threading that needle.
	Did he?
	One of his quotes, he's like, look, it doesn't matter the deal you get.
	In two years, you're all out of a job anyway.
	But he had those kind of moments again that we love from Donald Trump where he's very honest with them, like, go negotiate.
	It's not going to matter.
	They're pushing policies on you that all these vehicles have to be electric or up to a certain percentage in 10 years.
	He's like, do you think that's going to happen?
	Your jobs went to Mexico, your jobs went to China, this administration doesn't care about you, and also your leaders don't care about you because they always support the Democrats.
	So, he split them like we do with China and the CCP.
	We're like, Chinese people good, CCP bad.
	He's doing the same thing.
	Well, not all Chinese people, am I right?
	Small hands, they can get in crevices, folks.
	Yeah, but so you know, we'll have a montage of some of the highlights for that, and then throughout the night as we go, other moments from that that we want to bring up, we will bring it out.
	Scooters from China.
	They're making a lot of electric scooters in China.
	Can move around too fast for a scooter.
	It's not structurally sound.
	You go 45 downhill.
	It's gonna be a bad crash, folks.
	But no, here's the thing.
	A lot of Democrats switched over because of TPP, the Trans-Pacific Partnership, because of free trade.
	And that is, I will say, that has single-handedly from Donald Trump, that's what shifted the Republican Party quite a bit to becoming the party of the working class.
	And I will tell you this.
	I was never a protectionist.
	But I certainly saw the value in highlighting the disproportionate... the agreements that were so weighted toward China and these international agreements that we had that really did screw the American record.
	Now, I'm not a pro-union guy, pro-UAW guy.
	If it comes down to communist American unions or communist crap from China, well, the communist crap from China is cheaper, but...
	The agreements that we had, if you look at free, it was never free trade.
	The tariffs they were putting on our goods going over there.
	Donald Trump is focusing on what he won in the 2016 election.
	He did.
	And let me give you some stats that he put out from this, right?
	So he had a press release to put all these stats out there.
	The United States added, and I think you've got an overlay potentially there that you can bring up from that on air.
	Added 510,000 new manufacturing jobs between Trump's election and February of 2020, right?
	So that's the number we typically use is pre-COVID, right?
	So that's essentially what he's doing there.
	510,000.
	2018, the United States added 264,000 new manufacturing jobs, the most in 30 years.
	He's got a record with these people.
	He doesn't have to go make promises.
	He can go and tell them, I will do for you now what I did for you before.
	Yeah.
	And nobody else can do that with them.
	Well, that's the context here, right?
	It's eight years of Obama, three years of Donald Trump, and then they're going to have four years of Biden.
	And they mirror... I mean, just Ukraine, for crying out loud, mirrors what Obama did.
	When you look at what happened in Crimea, when you look at what happened with TPP, and you look at what Biden is doing and how weak he is on China, when you look at Bidenomics, which is really just another version of shovel-ready jobs and printing money, they have no economic plan.
	It's robbing from Peter to pay Paul.
	Shovel-ready jobs.
	We talked about this in northern Michigan.
	There's what they call up-north trees.
	It's after the Great Depression where they said, we have shovel-ready jobs.
	They just paid a bunch of people here.
	Go dig a tree.
	And they didn't know how to plant a tree.
	And so they had a bunch of trees that couldn't grow leaves because they were planted too close to each other.
	That's not a real job where you see the difference.
	If you take away nothing else, it's private sector job growth versus government employees.
	Well, sure, you just decrease the unemployment rate.
	If you just added 80,000 IRS, sorry, not agents, employees.
	It's 87,000, not agents, sorry, employees.
	Bunch of pencil-pushing, pencil-pushing, just gelatinous necks with blocks.
	What could possibly go wrong?
	So if you just keep adding jobs through your tax dollars, well, you can always artificially manipulate unemployment numbers.
	So that is, I think, a really strong argument.
	And it's also, he did a good job with that speech.
	I was very worried that he was going to go up and do something that made him look like he was supporting the actual union bosses, but he called them out.
	And he said, it's a miracle, they always support, I wish they would support Donald Trump.
	They always support the Democrat.
	He just says it so dramatically.
	Did he bring up the argument about the wage increase?
	Did he get that specific?
	They want a 40% wage increase?
	No, they want more than that, but they want their wage increase.
	I think their costs would go from, what, from $60-something an hour to $150-plus an hour.
	They want 40-hour workweek pay for 30-hour workweek.
	Yeah, didn't we already learn?
	Remember Toyota couldn't make money because they were losing money on cars years ago, under Obama, right?
	Donald Trump did a great job of Walking right past and going, doesn't matter what the deal is.
	Doesn't matter what the deal is.
	Their policies kill your industry.
	They've been doing it for decades, and it's going to happen again if you do not vote for me.
	Okay, so before that, let's show the clips of Biden really quickly with the UAW.
	This is pandering.
	So, since I'm hearing the speech went well with Donald Trump, again, send in your predictions.
	Use the promo code hashtag CrowderDebateNight.
	I have to look down because I never remember my own promo code.
	Do we have it?
	Can we put it there?
	CrowderDebateNight.
	Is there a hashtag?
	Do we have a hashtag?
	Uh, you can see Biden just pandering to the UAW.
	Again, 99% of their donations go to Democrats.
	So he just says, yeah, yeah, yeah, you should get more, and then we'll compare that with Donald Trump, and then we'll go into what's happened since the last debate and what we can expect tonight.
	But let's show the first Biden clip with the UAW.
	You want me to play him back-to-back?
	Yeah, play him back-to-back!
	moment, the first time in our country's history that a sitting USA president has came out
	and stood on the picket line.
	The fact of the matter is that you guys, UAW, you saved the automobile industry back in
	2008 and before. Made a lot of sacrifices, gave up a lot, and the companies were in trouble.
	Now they're doing incredibly well.
	I don't know if you know this, the UAW, Nick, they made a lot of sacrifices.
	They made a lot of sacrifices with it.
	Was it a 60 or 80 billion dollar bailout?
	80, yeah.
	Three retirees per active worker.
	They made a lot of sacrifices.
	He was talking into the wrong end of that thing for like a half hour.
	Blowing his hair back.
	It might just be one of those new megaphones.
	My gosh.
	So we're going to have Donald Trump for 12 minutes.
	I think he was in the state of Michigan physically for about an hour before he flew to Hollywood for a fundraiser.
	It just shows how greedy and selfish Democrats are.
	That's the one thing.
	They will constantly try and make Republicans, everyone here by the way who's worked for a living obviously, and then once you reach a certain level of running a company or success, all of a sudden you're not working class.
	Why is it greedy?
	Why is it selfish for people here to not want to pay someone else's salary through their taxes, and it's not considered selfish for a UAW worker who has been bailed out at the taxpayer's teat, now at least two times?
	If you look at the subsidies, really they're going into four or five times?
	Why is it not greedy for them to want to cost a company $150-something an hour, while you and I and other people, who by the way can still make good livings, don't get Cadillac benefits?
	Why is it?
	Really, they sacrificed a lot?
	LASIK in every Chevy Cavalier you're paying for?
	Do you have any idea the benefits that these guys get?
	The Cadillac, you know you used to say that's the Cadillac of forks.
	The Cadillac isn't even the Cadillac of cars anymore because of the UAW.
	When was the last time a Cadillac was used as anything other than a pejorative?
	That is absolutely fair.
	We have the Trump speech still going on if we wanted to tune in for a couple minutes.
	Well we've only got about two and a half minutes until the debate kicks off so you want to talk about the debate?
	What do you think, Nick?
	What do you anticipate tonight?
	I anticipate, uh, hopefully see more Kellyanne Conway.
	She's had face work done.
	She almost looks like a fox anchor.
	I'm sorry.
	Almost.
	It's not very tasteful when they bring her on though and they play...
	What do I anticipate as far as the debate goes?
	Once again my boy, Vivek.
	I say my boy, Trump's my boy, but I'm just saying.
	Of the guys on the stage.
	This guy will be, he's going to be in the cabinet of any Republican that wins this.
	He is going to once again be at the end of this, end of the night, they'll be talking about him.
	Well he had a bump after the last debate and then he kind of sunk back a little bit and he lost about two points in the polls but it's like what he went from five to, went from six to three.
	I mean at this point it's just mundane.
	I think he's at five right now but he's somewhere around seven at the time.
	I ignore the polls because they don't reflect what people are thinking, they shape what people are thinking.
	Keep that in mind.
	No, I don't disagree.
	I don't disagree but when a leftist poll has Trump ahead by ten that is worse.
	That's unbelievable.
	He's ahead by a hundred and ten.
	Yes, exactly.
	Washington Post, ABC?
	56.6%.
	That's his thing right now.
	14.4% in the primaries right now.
	That's a 42.2% spread.
	Nobody has ever lost a primary with that kind of margin.
	Sorry, go ahead, Nick.
	I was going to say, but think about, we have witnessed the worst presidency in We really have.
	It's been an embarrassment.
	In a world that wasn't corrupt, he'd be up by, seriously, it would be 95%.
	I have trouble believing these polls.
	I don't know why Talking Thumb Karl Rove is on screen, but I hope someone gives him the Muppet Chain.
	Let's run a quick, we have some clips here, of what transpired since the last debate, and then we'll go live.
	Mickey Haley with a black eye.
	Yeah, and her stockings rolling up under a house.
	Okay, let's show it.
	And the major question going into this first debate was whether the eight candidates on stage could or would do something to change the basic pattern or trajectory of this race that's so far been dominated by the frontrunner Donald Trump, who skipped tonight, citing his commanding lead.
	Well, with the debate wrapping up, it appears, for now, that the status quo probably will remain.
	And there's mixed opinions on who had the best night.
	According to this poll from the Drudge Report, Vivek Ramaswamy won last night's debate, followed by Nikki Haley and Ron DeSantis, with Asa Hutchinson at the bottom.
	Didn't qualify for tonight, by the way.
	What do you think?
	It's when people have gotten to know you, your unfavorables are up too.
	The reality is many people are annoyed by my rise and believe that a 38-year-old is too young to be U.S.
	President.
	Governor DeSantis will take center stage in California tonight for the second GOP debate.
	According to recent polls, Governor DeSantis has fallen behind.
	Out of New Hampshire, he has just 10% of the poll.
	Behind Trump, roughly tied with Ramaswamy, Haley and Christie.
	Nikki Haley holds second place on her own, outside the margin of error in the new St.
	Anselm College Survey Center poll.
	The former South Carolina governor is at 15%.
	I thought you told me it was about to end there.
	Is that slightly more Eric Cantory?
	Eric Cantor?
	Alright, let's go really quickly here.
	We'll go back to that.
	Right now, Fox News is running their pre-debate sort of package.
	It is look at this Donald Trump brand-new National Poll of Republic is that slightly more Eric can't re Eric canter
	You can see here. Nobody else in single digit. All right, let's go really quickly here
	We'll go back to that right now. We pulled Fox News is running their pre-debate sort of package
	Let's see how they're how they're trying to frame this We will stop the earmarks.
	What is America's role in the world?
	We need to build a military fitted to the widening challenges in an ever more dangerous world.
	Sometimes you avoid war.
	Yeah, don't go without a jacket.
	You can't eat your way out of it.
	Oh no, they're doing the fighter turn!
	I'm surprised I didn't spritz them with glycerin.
	Oh my gosh.
	That's like a Ron Burgundy.
	Oh no, they're doing the fighter turn.
	I'm surprised they didn't spritz them with glycerin.
	Why did they do that?
	Oh my gosh, that's like a Ron Burgundy.
	I half expected Eagle to go, ahhh!
	I swear I'd die laughing if that happened.
	I just found out where California is.
	Alright guys, remember drinking game rules. Bring them up really quickly.
	You drink, just to full screen, any time the word Trump is mentioned.
	The word indictment is used, hit the dang Chris Christie has a fake tough guy moment,
	Vivek attacks anybody, Ron DeSantis talks using his thumb, what is that?
	And you finish your drink any time someone brings up Ronald Reagan or has a thug life moment.
	Trump, Trump, Trump, Trump.
	Hey, there's Nick's pen pal.
	...Fox News channel, Dana Perino and Ilya Kolderon.
	Univision.
	Oh Oh no.
	That's worse than Bill Superfoot Wallace, the first UFC.
	Drink.
	The first old man white.
	Just drink because that was funny.
	It was funny.
	You are irrelevant.
	Okay, she's got an accent.
	I don't like her.
	I didn't expect that voice.
	Here we go.
	Let's welcome them in the ice truck.
	Welcome to America.
	Muy buenas noches a todos.
	Oh, did I pray?
	Let's welcome them into the ice truck.
	Let's welcome them into the ice truck.
	Los primarios de España también buscan su voto para las primarias del partido.
	Bienvenido.
	Thank you, Mrs. Lopez.
	A little more juice there, Casey, if you can.
	And good evening.
	So, let's meet the candidates for the Oval Office.
	I decided to go with a very smoky eye this evening.
	I'm going to be a little bit more serious.
	Two of them.
	She went to the makeup artist and said, do figure skater chic.
	I want this dramatic.
	Gasps.
	He's smelling a fart.
	Look at the teeth on this guy.
	Holy Jesus.
	Token Cheshire Cat.
	Vivek.
	Okay, I don't know how she's still around.
	I really don't.
	Well, come on, look at her.
	Oh, did they put a lens filter on Tim Scott?
	What is that?
	Yeah, they did.
	They gotta put a gum filter on him.
	And that fat prick.
	Oh, the camera adds 150 pounds.
	It's a wax museum.
	There's four cameras on him.
	Good evening!
	Hide your children!
	Transylvania!
	...issues important to primary voters. Candidates get one minute to answer and
	30 seconds to respond if singled out. When their time runs out we'll all hear this.
	That means drink. That means drink.
	So please, keep it civilized.
	Oh, shut it.
	This is America.
	We are in this spacious, sunny place tonight designed to reflect the very nature and character of Ronald Reagan.
	It's a place that makes you proud to be an American.
	Yet, today our nation is drowning in division and incivility.
	I'm fine with this division.
	I'm fine with it.
	I'm fine with division. I'm fine with it. I want a dividing line between me and Biden.
	Two in three Americans think the country is on the wrong track. And three in four say
	the economy is not in good shape.
	Prices are up 18% since 2020.
	More than half of the U.S.
	population has little access to childcare.
	85% of Americans say their personal finances are a source of stress.
	Tonight, they're going to be focusing on the economy clearly.
	You can follow me.
	I've got you.
	Don't worry.
	President Biden is trying to do that with Bidenomics.
	And less work.
	Today he joined the picket lines where auto workers are demanding more wages and job security.
	Senator Scott, you recently reacted by praising Ronald Reagan for firing air traffic controllers
	in the 1980s, saying, you strike, you're fired.
	Would you fire thousands of striking auto workers today, Senator?
	Obviously, the President of the United States cannot fire anybody in the private sector.
	However, we should look back at the first bill in Congress under Joe Biden.
	The first bill had 86 billion dollars for the union pensions because they continue to over-promise, yet under-deliver.
	One of the challenges that we have in the current negotiations is that They want four-day French work weeks, but more money.
	They want more benefits, working fewer hours.
	That is simply not going to stand.
	I sat in a finance committee hearing when a widow came before the committee
	who's promised pensions from the unions.
	Did he say when a widow went before the committee?
	Unfortunately, she's been cut to $1,000 a month.
	We must make sure that we honor the commitments that we make, and one of the ways that we do that, do not over-promise, and then under-deliver, and leave the taxpayers on the hook.
	I'll say this, Joe Biden should not be on the picket line.
	No, look, these people give to Democrats.
	They've run these companies into the ground.
	You, the taxpayer, have bailed them out repeatedly.
	It's corruption at its finest.
	They can sink or swim on their own.
	And it's not my job as president.
	But I tell you what, if it's not my job to fire him, then it's certainly not my job to bail him out with your tax dollars.
	Right?
	Next.
	We must absolutely not... Stop listening to advisors!
	It doesn't make you unintelligent to distill things in a way that people can understand.
	Show some passion!
	That's what's missing in all these.
	Show some passion.
	Since Joe Biden has taken office, and he eliminated Title 42, the one thing he should do is finish the wall, reinstate Title 42, and get the job.
	That wasn't us.
	It's going to be a close one.
	Well, you know what?
	Drink every time they hit the bell.
	I thought I heard him say Trump.
	Every time they hit that bell, Vivek's going to think it's a Bollywood single.
	I agree with some of what he said, for sure.
	about this strike for just a moment more.
	I think that's where he and I actually have a common view.
	I do have a lot of sympathy for the workers, however.
	People are going through real hardship in this country.
	I've been through hardship growing up.
	My father stared down layoffs at GE under Jack Welch's tenure at the GE plant in Evendale, Ohio.
	My mom had to work overtime in nursing homes in southwest Ohio to make ends meet and pay off our home loan.
	So I understand that hardship is not a choice.
	And I even had to double at parties as a Punjabi Jimmy Neutron.
	And we choose to be victorious in the United States of America.
	You know what, if I was giving advice to those workers, I would say go picket in front of the White House in Washington, D.C.
	That's really where the protest needs to be.
	Disastrous economic policies that have driven up prices, that have driven up interest rates and mortgage rates.
	At the same time, wages are remaining stagnant.
	What we need is to deliver economic growth in this country.
	Unlock American energy.
	Drill.
	Frack.
	Burn coal.
	And this is why Donald Trump is looming like a specter, because what they're saying is something that he's already done.
	Wages went up an average of $5,000 under Donald Trump, talking about opening up our energy reserves like we never have before.
	So really, their strongest talking points are, I'll do what Trump started doing until he was cut off at the knees in three years.
	That is how we unleash American exceptionalism.
	And that's not a Democratic vision or a Republican vision.
	That is an American vision that we embrace economic growth and capitalism is still the best system known to man to lift us up from poverty and we should not apologize for it.
	That's what it means to be an American.
	That's my boy.
	Good for him.
	I guess it's a pretty good moment to drink, but I'm not finishing it.
	That's a thug life, yeah.
	Thug life!
	West Punjab!
	By the way, later we have a 7 plus 1.
	7 plus 1 things that the Biden family was doing instead of attending this debate.
	And we also have Thomas Finnegan, I should have said, on the ground at the GOP debate.
	We'll check in with him later.
	Last week you said you side with American workers, but you also support how these companies operate.
	Which is it?
	Well, thank you for the question.
	I want to thank Univision and Fox Business for assembling such a wonderful forum.
	Look, I do disagree with something Tim Scott just said.
	Joe Biden doesn't belong on a picket line, he belongs on the unemployment line.
	I'm from the second leading manufacturing state in the country, per capita.
	I was governor of the state of Indiana.
	We brought 12,000 factories back to America during our administration.
	I know something about manufacturing.
	I have to tell you, while the union bosses are talking about class warfare and talking about disparity in wages, I have to tell you, I really believe what's driving that is Bidenomics has failed.
	You know what's really bad for Detroit?
	Auto workers and all American workers are feeling it.
	Yeah.
	Families are struggling in this economy.
	And Joe Biden's Green New Deal agenda is good for Beijing and bad for Detroit.
	We ought to repeal the Green New Deal.
	You know what's really bad for Detroit?
	Yeah.
	Detroit.
	Yeah.
	Detroit is bad for Detroit.
	While they're living up on Wall Street, they should shut all of it down.
	Detroit is just as corrupt as Wall Street, and I don't care about your working class hero crap.
	You're just shakedown artists in a UAW.
	Let's call it what it is.
	The union workers in the Midwest do not equal American workers.
	They are not one and the same.
	As a matter of fact, they have the kinds of benefits that you could only dream of and this is the pandering and I don't know why
	they pandered to them considering that they give 99% of their funding to
	Democrats you guys can bring it up as an overlay from Open Secrets hey Tim Scott's
	coming in with a holler back hey Tom Hanks relax
	It's Tim Scott, guys!
	I wonder if the American dream would work for a kid in the inner city.
	I've got good news for every single child, whether you're in the inner cities of Chicago or the rural parts of Iowa.
	America and the dream, it is alive, it is well, and it is healthy.
	It's because of all of the spending that he has pushed through in the economy that's raised the inflation.
	Can I get a witness, bitch?
	I think people should look at exactly what happened. Biden showed up on that picket line.
	But why are those workers actually there?
	Quiet, a housewife is talking.
	It's because of all of the spending that he has pushed through in the economy that's raised the inflation.
	So when you look at the fact that we are paying higher gas prices, higher grocery prices, $7,000 more a year for the
	economy, I should have been clear.
	We have Alex Jones on later in the show.
	Of course, you can watch his Mug Club on Fridays.
	Look, lead with passion.
	and diesel tax so that they have more money in their pocket.
	Let's focus on going after- By the way, we have Alex Jones on, I should tell you, after
	the debate.
	I should have been clear.
	We have Alex Jones on later in the show.
	Of course, you can watch his Mug Club on Fridays.
	Look, lead with passion.
	These people don't get it.
	They go, don't point to your plan, lead with passion.
	The economy is not working, and it did work for years, just to be clear.
	So obviously, we need to revert back to what was working before this guy came into office.
	You have eight years of Obama.
	You have three years of Donald Trump, like him or not.
	You have another two and a half years now with Biden.
	You're going to have four years when it's done.
	Let's pull it back and then recalibrate.
	Are you guys better off?
	That was Ronald Reagan's question, right?
	Are you better off than you were before?
	Don't just point to your five-point plant.
	Show some passion!
	That's who's gonna win this!
	You're mistaking these for real people.
	Well, this guy's a Muppet who was put in a spin cycle.
	He's still around?
	Jesus!
	We're subsidizing the automakers, and we're subsidizing the cars, and a particular kind of car.
	Not every car.
	Particularly, we're subsidizing electric vehicles.
	And when you decide that we're going to take all of your taxpayer monies, take a billion dollars, subsidize a certain type of vehicle, and the batteries come from China.
	China controls 85% of the rare earth minerals.
	They're called rare earth because they're measured in parts per million.
	China is moving 100,000 pounds of earth in Indonesia, in Africa.
	They're literally destroying the planet so that we can make a battery that's in a car subsidized here.
	That's what they're striking because they need two thirds less workers to build electric cars.
	Let me just point out something to you. The electric car thing is a boogeyman.
	It's just another example of, of course, inept government.
	But you can go back to 2009, you can go back to the bailout, when what they would do is they would give more money to the American manufacturing, and we can pull this up, someone can fact check me on it, I did it in Detroit and Ruins.
	They would give more money for any car from GM or Ford that could get more than 30 miles per gallon.
	Whereas GM alone had more 30 mile per gallon cars than Honda and Toyota combined.
	People weren't buying them. So back then the government was subsidizing shitty
	cars no one wanted but got it got gas mileage that people didn't want. They just turned that to
	electric cars. The point is you have to cut the head off of the beast. Yes, forcing them to make
	electric cars is stupid. So was forcing them to make cars that were unsafe and got 30 miles to the
	gallon. Call out the corrupt union leadership and their relationship with Democrats. They're
	afraid if they do it that they'll lose the Midwestern working vote. You just need to delineate.
	Let's watch the fat guy.
	Bye.
	And now the Biden administration...
	I hope it's soup.
	five trillion on and counting. They have failed and they're in the spot they're in now because
	none of them are willing to tell the truth, none of them are willing to take on the difficult
	issues, they just want to keep kicking the can down the road. And the inflation that
	Nikki spoke about is absolutely right and it's caused by government spending. And that's
	why people all across this country are suffering tonight.
	And yet we don't get any answers.
	Because you pre-gamed with two cans of Hormel Chili?
	He just learned to kiss Obama on a beach when the sun was going up.
	He's still looking at this fat guy.
	He went after Trump.
	Oh yeah?
	Drink?
	Yeah, he did.
	and won't show up here to answer questions that all the rest of us are up here to answer.
	He should be in this room.
	I don't answer to you, Slither!
	Yeah, where were you?
	Where were you, Chris Christie?
	52 points.
	That's the lead Donald Trump has on you.
	Tons of fun.
	I don't think he needs to answer to you at all.
	But these guys look fired up.
	I don't answer to you, Slither!
	Everyone in Washington, D.C. who has failed to do their job and just plays to the grandstand.
	Yeah, where were you? Where were you, Chris Christie?
	52 points. That's the lead Donald Trump has on you, tons of fun.
	I don't think he needs to answer to you at all.
	Why is that?
	But these guys look fired up. Let's go to them.
	Governor DeSantis, you haven't spoken.
	Mr. DeSantis, he was already speaking.
	She interrupted him to let him, like, you can speak!
	Reckless behavior.
	Translator.
	They borrowed, they printed, they spent, and now you're paying more for everything.
	They are the reason for that.
	They have shut down our national sovereignty by allowing our border to be wide open.
	So please spare me the crocodile tears for these people.
	They need to change what's going on.
	And where's Joe Biden?
	He's completely missing in action from leadership.
	And you know who else is missing in action?
	Don't say Trump.
	It's two people that have gone after him.
	Gerald was right.
	together?
	...stage tonight.
	Drake.
	He owes it to you...
	Why would he go on the stage?
	Hey.
	He has nothing to gain.
	That's two people that have gone after him.
	Gerald was right.
	...set the stage for the inflation that we have now.
	And the frontrunner.
	...this is Governor of Florida.
	We cut taxes.
	We ran surpluses.
	We've paid down over 25% of our state debt.
	And I vetoed wasteful spending when it came to my desk.
	And as your president, when they send me a bloating spending bill that's going to cause your prices to go up, I'm going to take out this veto pen and I'm going to send it right back to them.
	That's the veto pen?
	Yes.
	Christie said veal pen?
	Yeah.
	I know that you've been thinking about it because child care costs, they are up.
	Here's the thing, DeSantis.
	Once you start that now, now you have to respond when Trump attacks you in the media.
	You can't say, I'm above it.
	No, no.
	Now you've entered into that.
	And by the way, I respect it.
	But you've got to be all in now, otherwise it's going to play against you.
	You're either all in or you're all out.
	It's not show friends, it's show business when you're doing these debates.
	But it doesn't end when the clock runs out tonight.
	Sure, why not?
	I don't know what I said.
	They're giving Tim Scott a lot of air time.
	He's got 2.8!
	what I said. They're giving Tim Scott a lot of air time.
	The moms and dads out there who are worried.
	What can you tell them if you weren't able to get it through the Congress, how could you do it as president?
	Certainly one of the things I did as a member of the Congress was to make sure that we protected
	the Head Start programs around the country, giving people the opportunity to pick and choose the
	place that they send their children. The challenges that we see today under the Biden administration
	is that the cost for daycare has gone over $15,000 per child. And the Build Back Broker
	Plan, he called it a Build Back Better Plan.
	We get it. Don't explain the joke. Nice guy, but that's right.
	I don't know any brother that's not funny.
	I don't know any brother that's not funny.
	You know what I'm saying?
	Just this guy.
	That's my point.
	Roadie.
	How's he doing?
	He's doing good.
	He's the only black guy in a foot race who needs a Head Start program.
	Aww.
	For dual income households by 60%.
	Then we went a step further.
	We doubled the child tax credit and made it refundable.
	By doing that, more parents had more resources to make the decisions how to take care of
	their family.
	One thing we should do is let the American people cheap.
	He's at 2.8%.
	He has $38 million of cash on hand.
	Come on, Tim.
	Make it rain.
	Reagan.
	There it is.
	Oh, we have to finish our drink.
	Reagan.
	Oh no.
	mischaracterized a part of my view. I think this artificial division is
	unhelpful in our party. The real divide is not between the Republicans on this
	stage and in the Reagan library I want to say these are good people on this
	stage. The real divide is between the majority of us in this country who love the United
	States of America and share our founding ideas.
	because he saw his polls go down a little bit after the last debate and now he's cozying up to them.
	Last time he was attacking everybody.
	Now he's like, everyone here's a good guy.
	I'm just glad to be here.
	How'd they go down?
	Probably because he had the highest right after he was... Yeah, then he kind of had a rebound and then he went down.
	Yeah, and then the mainstream media tore him into an asshole.
	Yeah.
	You know.
	Yeah.
	I want to say something!
	Sir, you have less than 1%.
	Shut up.
	I can't believe you don't shut up.
	Cut his mic, please.
	You're always talking with your scary eyebrows.
	Sir, you have less than 1% shut up.
	We're gonna get to you, we're gonna come back to you.
	I can't believe you don't shut up.
	Cut his mic please.
	You're always talking with your scary eyebrows.
	They make me have to hide my children.
	Count Dracula shut up.
	So Vivek was at the first debate 7.2% now he's down to 5.1%.
	He's not stopping.
	So Vivek was at the first debate, 7.2%, now he's down to 5.1.
	He's not stopping.
	He's not.
	You know, cut off the senator from Transylvania.
	Oh, Ronald Reagan, I guess we all have to...
	Everyone finish your drink anyway and then we need a refill.
	Alright, drinks!
	Alright, drinks!
	Sir, be quiet, we need to roll this package.
	The government is the problem.
	President Reagan granted amnesty to nearly 3 million immigrants, something no Democrat or Republican president has done since... Ronald Reagan's two biggest screw-ups were him basically opening up immigration the way he did, and no-fault divorce in California, which he said.
	But when you ran for president in 2016, you flipped.
	Immigrants should be trapped like FedEx packages.
	Where do you stand now on a path to citizenship?
	Double down!
	A path that goes by, you know, doubling the buffet.
	No one has done anything since we first had this discussion 13 years ago.
	We're not in a position to be able to do any of that anymore.
	Can someone just answer yes?
	Do you think we should track them like FedEx packages now?
	enforcement problem it is. Our laws are being broken every day at the southern border. Every
	day. And Joe Biden and his crew is doing nothing about it.
	Do you think we should track them like FedEx packages now?
	Yes, and I think you should put some makeup on your pigmentless clavicle.
	We're going to let it go. And we need to have a president who acts like I did.
	We had one that controlled the border, and you don't like them.
	Shut your fat hole.
	Thank you, that was a quote from Lincoln.
	Four score and seven Hormel chilis ago.
	He's used to flow stopping.
	His heart decided to cut that off about eight years ago.
	to make sure that we send a much different message.
	He's used to flow stopping.
	His heart decided to cut that off about eight years ago.
	I hate this guy with a badge.
	But only if you come here to follow the law and only if you come here legally.
	If you come here illegally, we will apprehend you and we will send you back across the border
	from which you came.
	And the fact is that until we set a law and order agenda in this country, not only now
	but in the future, we won't.
	I will say I like his answer though.
	Well, I'm going to say it's bullshit.
	That's exactly what Trump did, and he lost the election.
	So you think you're going to win with that strategy?
	Yeah, well, he didn't do enough.
	Donald Trump didn't do enough with the border, I don't think.
	He started it, but he was the first guy to do anything.
	I agree.
	Vivek said this week he's going to use the military.
	He came right out and said it.
	So, let's do it.
	Never mind the wall.
	We have flamethrowers, like I said.
	I eat these.
	Hey, Joe, how are you?
	Hey, look at that guy.
	Ah, Joe Louis.
	Hey buddy.
	It's an ice cream truck.
	on a daily basis. In fact, I believe we have a live picture of it tonight. That is happening
	right now, live. In the last decade, the US has spent nearly $55 billion to address the
	root causes of migration. But crime, poverty and corruption, they persist and the number
	of migrants is only growing. Are we wasting our money? Yes.
	Well, what happens is when Joe Biden waved the green flag, it told everybody to come.
	And now we've seen six million people cross the border.
	We've had more fentanyl that have killed Americans in the Iraq, Vietnam, or Afghanistan wars combined.
	We need to make sure that we are a country of laws.
	The second we stop being a country of laws, we give up everything this country was founded on.
	So we have to secure the border.
	The way we do that is, first of all, defund sanctuary cities.
	You see what's happening in Philadelphia right now?
	It's got to stop.
	We need to make sure we put 25,000 more Border Patrol and ICE agents on the ground and let them do their job.
	I spent 400 miles down that border, and I'm telling you, Border Patrol agents aren't allowed to do their job.
	Let's go back to remain-in-Mexico policy.
	Instead of catch-and-release, let's go to catch-and-deport.
	Yeah, she asked a different question.
	to deal with the root causes. It's not working.
	The only aid that we should be spending right now is to secure the border, the southern
	border, the northern border, period. We need to keep Americans safe. And right now Americans
	are not safe.
	of Steven.
	If they don't keep the government open... I'm not putting a woman in charge of spending.
	Come on.
	Oh, for the love of Christ.
	Cut off the charge of placing.
	How much did that top cost her?
	Come on, it's somebody's day here.
	Raising $12 billion.
	It's a numbers game.
	Welcome to the Bitchin' Famous.
	Mr. Numbers game America just last year. Welcome to the bitchin famous
	partnerships with seven countries lifestyles of the second tier
	Now include arms which is probably He's gotta take a dump in a can.
	Are you comfortable with China deepening ties with our southern neighbors?
	Of course not.
	And the reason why we're in this mess is because elites in D.C.
	for far too long have chosen surrender over strength when it comes to the C.C.P.
	Some people in our country got rich, our industrial base got hollowed out, and they have been able to build the second No.
	No, I'm good.
	You're supposed to finish it.
	Reagan.
	I'm not finishing my drink.
	Just got to brush my teeth.
	a totally new approach to China.
	We are going to have real hard power in the Indo-Pacific, like Reagan, to deter their ambitions.
	We're going to have economic independence from China.
	I'm not finishing my drink.
	We're troubling our economy.
	Just got the first one.
	We thought we can't finish our drink.
	Everyone, by the way, bring up the drinking game rules again
	for people who are watching right now.
	You're supposed to finish your drink every time they mention Reagan.
	I'm not going to.
	Yeah, because they say Trump is mentioned.
	Yeah.
	Alright, alright.
	Let's put a hiatus on everyone.
	We shouldn't have Confucius Institutes.
	So, you see a country in decline, our power's in decline, China's going to surpass us this decade, and if they do that, that's going to affect every single American household.
	As your president, I am not going to let that happen.
	I'm going to reverse this country's decline.
	We are going to choose strength, not surrender when it comes to the CCP.
	Why did he smile when he said that?
	He said, we're going to show strength, not surrender to the CCP.
	You were snarling when they went to you, and you were smiling when he mentioned the CCP!
	His advisor told him to smile.
	Even if the children are citizens of the United States, under what legal premise will you expel U.S.
	citizens?
	So the first thing I want to say is I agree with everything the Republicans on the stage are saying.
	That's a loaded question and it's dumb.
	If we can't expel people in sanctuary cities who are felons, convicted felons, we can't deport non-citizens from our prisons in certain instances.
	Let's not talk about the dreamers and the children and the anchor babies.
	Lasering on that question, so that we get to the bottom of it, and we can be honest about the conversation.
	Let's go to Jimmy Neutron, uh, photo negative.
	...about the Constitution and the 14th Amendment.
	September militarizing.
	The difference between me and them is I've actually read the 14th Amendment.
	What it says is that all persons...
	Oh, attack! Drink!
	...born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the laws and jurisdiction thereof are citizens.
	So nobody believes that the kid of a Mexican diplomat in this country enjoys birthright citizenship, not a judge or legal scholar in this country.
	Now look, DeSantis is snarling now, but he was smiling when he mentioned CCP.
	What's up with his face?
	Then neither does the kid of an illegal migrant who broke the law to come here.
	And as the father of two sons, it is hard for me to look them in the eye and say you have to follow the law when our own government fails to follow its own laws.
	That's how we really go the distance and solve this problem and restore the rule of law in the United States of America.
	You're gonna hang yourself.
	By the way, you guys can comment.
	We'll be taking your chat on Mug Club.
	I think that Donald Trump is looking at Tim Scott for VP.
	Just my thought.
	out the fact she's very pretty the Constitution in the 14th Amendment it
	was certainly written as relates to slavery not as it relates to illegal
	immigration it's been applied to illegal immigration so the challenge that we
	face is in fact one that has to do with whether or not by the way you guys can
	come it will be taking your chat on mug club I think that Donald Trump is
	looking at Tim Scott for VP just my thought can I ask why because he's been
	very complimentary of Tim Scott and Tim Scott has been really kind of laying off
	going after Donald Trump and because he's a black guy Okay, he said that again.
	Let me go quickly.
	Laying the Brain did come in.
	According to Bloomberg, China wouldn't overtake us until at the earliest the mid-2040s and then it's only expected to be for a minute.
	They'd probably pull even and then fall back behind us.
	You know what I miss?
	I miss no longer fearing China as the next great superpower when Donald Trump was president.
	It was like the paper tiger was exposed.
	Exactly.
	Now we're back to, oh, I have an uncle who works, like, in finance.
	He's like, oh, China is where it is.
	I'm going, no, you know what, I don't believe that, because they're going to have to have a revolution at some point.
	And their economy's bombing right now, is that it?
	Yes.
	Yes.
	All right, go back to these yeses.
	They're arguing.
	I want to respond.
	These are good people who are tainted by a broken system.
	And it's not the fault of anybody who's involved.
	Some of us are tainted.
	Excuse me.
	Excuse me.
	Don't address them.
	Just answer.
	If I may finish.
	If I may finish.
	Tim, shut it.
	No, I think you should let it fly.
	Gentlemen, you'll have your turn.
	Just say it, Vivek.
	Just say it.
	Look at this.
	This is what the first thing gets you.
	A food fight.
	There should be all white people up there.
	Am I right, folks?
	Relax.
	He's Sicilian, he can say it.
	There's a black man hiding in his woodshed somewhere down the street.
	Where'd you open your call center?
	CEO expanded into the Chinese market.
	You know what I did with my first company?
	We opened a subsidiary in China.
	But you know what I did that was different than every other company?
	We got the hell out of there.
	And when I started my next company, U.N. for Prime, right when it opened, that was years
	ago, right when I started my first company, U.N. for Prime, I was in the middle of a
	No, no.
	It's okay.
	It's okay.
	It's for you, it's for you.
	Mr. Ambassador, I think you have more than time to explain your point.
	I made a commitment that we would never do business in China and I will say something
	if you have more than time to explain your point.
	Well if I was interrupted by a lot of people here and I want to be respectful because I
	believe these were good people but I do not believe I am.
	Vertiglio, shut up.
	He's making a mistake right now.
	Don't find Common Ground.
	I disagree with everyone in this room.
	The fact that Tim Scott is doing this a little bit, right, that's his natural.
	Let it fly.
	Look, he just rolled his eyes.
	He's like, there's some bullshit!
	That's Tim Scott!
	Show the real Tim Scott!
	No, I agree with that.
	I'm saying that if Vivek wants to win, ignore him and make your point.
	Yes.
	But I like Tim Scott as being a little bit more real there.
	Alright, let's go back.
	They're all going after him.
	Ah, you just ruined that for this guy?
	Mike Pence, I forgot you were here.
	It's like cutting away from Macho Man Randy Savage to show a jobber like Jean-Pierre Lafitte.
	Like why?
	Go back to Pence.
	Let's get Joe Pesci on the line.
	Well, first let me say I'm glad Vivek pulled out of his business deal in 2018 in China.
	That must have been about the time you decided to start voting in presidential elections.
	So we're nice to have you participate in the election.
	So let me speak to this issue.
	Number one, I negotiated the Remain in Mexico policy.
	Yeah, I guess maybe you need to hook some of your electrodes up to your own head because you're coming across as bitchy and gay, Pence.
	It's dead.
	And despite what's said here today, we reduced illegal immigration and asylum abuse by 90%.
	And as President of the United States, I can do it again.
	And the truth is, we need to fix a broken immigration system, and I'll do that as well.
	First and foremost, a nation without borders is not a nation.
	We have to secure the southern border of the United States of America.
	And guys, I'm sorry to subject you to this.
	Like, this is useless lip service.
	This is the kind of crap that people don't care about.
	When we go to commercial, we have a 7+.
	This is why we try to make it entertaining for you.
	You can use the hashtag CrowderDebateNight.
	You can get $10 off Mug Club.
	You get Nick DiPaolo every day, 5 p.m.
	Eastern.
	You get Alex Jones on Friday.
	You'll get the Hodge Twins.
	You get Brian Callen.
	You get our additional Friday show.
	Guns and Gear.
	You get Guns and Gear.
	Sorry that I missed it.
	You get all of these things.
	This is boring and this is just...
	It's one of those things that, unfortunately, you get to see it on display, but they have nothing to offer.
	These are empty suits.
	This is how you know the system is rigged, and this is why Donald Trump is ahead by more than just basic double digits, because no one trusts these folks.
	You don't find Pence authentic?
	I mean, I think he speaks right from the heart.
	He's as authentic as Olive Garden is Italian.
	That's right.
	Cold ice heart.
	Time for on-the-job training.
	I'm going to be ready on day one to get Congress to step up, secure the southern border of the United States, build a military fitted to our times, and we're going to get spending in Washington, D.C.
	Bring up the drinking game rules again, just so people can actually enjoy themselves tonight.
	Keep the audio on the way, do that.
	Hey, look, they're going after Vivek hard.
	Every single one of them, I think, has taken a shot at him except for maybe one or two.
	Count Dracula on the end hasn't done it yet, but maybe he will.
	I'll answer that.
	Tonight continues in moments.
	All right.
	Ooh.
	Hey, look, they're, they're going after Vivek hard.
	Yeah.
	Every single one of them, I think has taken a shot at him, except for maybe one or two.
	Count Dracula on the end.
	Hasn't done it yet, but maybe you will.
	We'll see.
	Yeah, hold on.
	Before we continue here, we'll do a recap, but we actually have our correspondent on the ground, Thomas Finnegan, who's out there at the GOP debate.
	Let's go to Thomas Finnegan.
	OK.
	OK.
	Hey, Steven.
	Hey, Finnegan.
	What do you have for us?
	Well, it was a long drive, but I made it.
	Yeah.
	Why does it say goop behind you?
	You told me to go to the G.O.O.P.
	No, I said G.O.P.
	I said G.O.P.
	Go to the G.O.P.
	for the debate.
	You're at Gwyneth Paltrow's headquarters.
	How could you have been so wrong?
	Are you sure I'm wrong?
	Yes.
	Yes, that's goop.
	I'm positive.
	You know what?
	Let's get you back in the road.
	I'll head back out.
	We'll check back in with you.
	One of those vagina candles on my way.
	That's disgusting.
	Let's cut him off. Let's get him.
	Really quickly, a funny little meme that was just thrown in about Pence and Vivek here.
	That Johnny Quest?
	Perfect.
	That's what it looked like right there.
	It's like, ah, we don't have time for other job training.
	Oh man, so they've gone after Trump, right?
	Christie and Ron DeSantis look a little too close to me, a little too in lockstep in their speeches.
	I'm wondering, did somebody feed their campaigns a line on calling out Donald Trump?
	You know who else should be here right now?
	Donald Trump!
	Because they went after Biden first, he's missing in action in leadership, and then Donald Trump is missing from this debate.
	They said almost the exact same thing.
	Do we have the clip of Donald Trump speaking at the UAW?
	So for those of you who missed it, we're going to check back in with this later.
	But again, here's Donald Trump doing what he does tonight.
	Instead of showing up at this debate, he was speaking to the workers there at the... Was he in Michigan?
	Yeah, I think he was there.
	Okay, let's show a highlight of his speech today.
	I put everything on the line to fight for you.
	I've risked it all to defend the working class from the corrupt political class that has spent decades sucking the life, wealth, and blood out of this country.
	That's why I'm here tonight to lay out a vision for a revival of economic nationalism and our automobile manufacturing lifeblood, which we're sucking out of our country.
	I want a future that protects American labor, not foreign labor.
	Instead of shouting her down, he just overly enunciated manufacturing.
	Manufacturing!
	Because I can't say the C word, right?
	You know I can't say it, but that's what you are.
	Hey look, if she called me, Nick, you'll be our role player.
	We'll do yes and like improv.
	Let's say that you were to refer to me as a C word.
	I know you are, but what am I?
	Is what I would say.
	No, the entire time.
	She was like, we need you Mr. Trump!
	Alright, one more clip of it because we're bringing back the debate.
	Here he is winning over the Midwest.
	Under crooked Joe Biden, you have none of this.
	You have none of the things we want.
	That takes balls to show up there.
	Instead of economic nationalism, you have ultra left-wing globalism.
	They hate our country.
	They hate him!
	of America. He brought hype people. Like the Dixie Jets. Spoke for a few seconds. Did you
	notice he spoke for what a few seconds? And he had no idea what he was saying. He didn't
	know where he was. He didn't know where he was.
	Is that the lady?
	I don't know.
	Is that the LOL survivor of Diamond Soap?
	No, they were Trump supporters.
	No, I know.
	They were.
	That lady's a supporter that you all know.
	Oh, okay.
	Hold on a second.
	And by the way, I love that he's made nationalism a good word.
	He's decided, I'm going to co-opt it.
	Just like fake news.
	A lot of people don't remember this.
	Fake news was used by the left to try and say fake news.
	And then he said, it's fake news!
	He's very good at jujitsu-ing that, even though he doesn't like the word, because it's foreign.
	Let's watch this.
	All of the lawlessness, the shoplifting, all the carjackings, the armed robberies, they're all surging.
	Progressive prosecutors were elected by their constituents and they can't be fired by a president.
	So what would you do to end the revolving door of criminality?
	Well, look, Dana, I'm the only one on this stage who's done it.
	For seven years, I ran the fifth largest office in this country at the U.S.
	Attorney's Office in New Jersey.
	Come on, let's not get into the matter.
	Fifth largest office?
	Proud of yourself.
	What, Panera at the airport?
	And the reason was that we went after the crime that was affecting people as long as I was president.
	Let's get it right.
	It was Obampae.
	I will be the Attorney General and instruct that Attorney General that you are to put all the resources that are necessary to bring our cities back under control.
	The fact is, they will be stretched.
	Like your fan!
	I know.
	I know!
	Those are cities as well.
	He's saying that.
	You don't rule!
	I know.
	Stretched.
	I know.
	Oh, they're making it too easy here.
	And not just in our cities, but we need to law and order back everywhere.
	We need law and order back in our suburbs.
	People are threatening.
	Those are cities as well.
	We need it in our rural areas.
	People feel threatened there.
	And we need it in Washington, D.C. also.
	And Donald Trump should be here to answer to the Japanese law.
	You don't rule.
	Oh, Donald Trump.
	We don't trust a Republican.
	I have a policy.
	Tough man.
	I know you're watching, okay?
	And you're not here tonight.
	And not because of your indictments.
	You're not here tonight because you're afraid of being on this stage and defending your record.
	You're ducking these things.
	Yeah, that's why he's not there, you fat fuck.
	What is he talking about?
	The best economy ever.
	Hold on.
	anymore. We're gonna call you Donald Duck. Best economy ever. It's like you just cut
	the worst wrestling promo. Hold on. Hold on. We're gonna call you Donald Duck.
	Let me tell you something, Donald.
	Someone get me the half and half from the fridge, because you're watching the cream of the crop.
	Yeah, Chris Christine, he had the fifth biggest office in the land.
	Someone get me the cream, I've got to drink it, I'm losing energy.
	You need the cream.
	Oh, that's a real ask.
	Cream from the fridge, now!
	He looks tired.
	He does.
	And they're all swingers!
	Had a great time.
	By the way, I will have... I know what you're thinking.
	I will have a pineapple outside of my hotel room number.
	I will.
	Tonight.
	Upside down, yeah.
	You should be doing better.
	I like Ron DeSantis.
	I do too.
	In Florida, we back the way I will have I know what you're thinking. I will have a pineapple outside of my will hotel
	Upside tonight. I down. Yes Prosecutors that weren't following the law in Florida I
	removed him from their post and the people I did too look at it. You do right now what a speaking with
	his thumb Oh Oh!
	Bring up the rules again for people who are new right now.
	Again, the promo code is CrowderDebateNight.
	You get $10 off at LettersCrowder.com.
	None of this happens if not for Muck Club.
	We're also taking predictions, by the way.
	On Twitter, use the hashtag CrowderDebate.
	You just said that because you wanted to show the card, which we haven't shown yet.
	Yeah, I haven't shown the card yet.
	Three years ago, you signed a pledge to support law enforcement.
	Now, pledges are a nice idea, but what's your actual plan to get more police on our streets?
	Why are you in your bathroom?
	What?
	Well, and I actually did it in South Carolina, too.
	You know, what we knew in South Carolina was you take care of those who take care of you.
	We have to start taking care of law enforcement, but it's not just taking care of them with words.
	It's making sure that- Okay, there you go.
	They do.
	Right now we have a lot of stolen guns on the street.
	Well, these law enforcement officers, they are- They're doing professional wrestling.
	Trump's going to come in as Steve Rossman.
	I tell you, you got this motherfucker right here, he's the- You want to reach down to the bottom of the barrel, you lift up the bottom of the barrel, strike the bottom of the barrel, and you end up- You go lift up that barrel, you end up with fucking Chris Christie, okay?
	I tell you what I'm going to do here Chris Christie trying to talk about me.
	I'm going to drink every one of these fucking beers right here.
	And I'm not going to listen to a damn word you say.
	Why?
	Because I do what I said I would do!
	Thank you, Stewart.
	that we need.
	He got green, brother.
	And we have a company in Bristol, Tennessee that produces that, yet our federal government
	only gets it from China.
	We need to be focusing on companies that produce in America and supporting those companies
	that produce in America, not companies that are helping China.
	Can you produce your Christmas throw rug jacket?
	We'll be talking foreign policy later.
	Thank you, Stuart.
	We're going to stay in the topic of crime because it affects all of us.
	I come from a country where there's a lot of it.
	As a matter of fact, there is more crime than no crime.
	It's in the middle of the day.
	If you go to a stoplight and it's red, you're going to get hit.
	It is the opposite.
	It's like Simon Says, but if Simon doesn't say, you commit crime.
	It's a plane!
	Well, first we need to understand is I think that the liberal left seems to be just completely bent on prosecuting law-abiding citizens that are gun owners.
	Because every solution they have to this is take away the Second Amendment rights of Americans and somehow that's going to solve the problem.
	But all these cities that we're talking about that you showed the videos of tonight, they have some of the strictest gun laws in the country.
	So we know that that's not what's working.
	But what we have to do is get back to the core issues.
	I don't think.
	Look, these are all nice people.
	I like what they say, but it's like the difference between watching someone who's really show-ready.
	Like, let's say a Rush Limbaugh, right?
	Someone who's just legendary versus someone who's one of those, let's say, social media conservative sites where it's like, this is the weekend wrap-up and it's a bunch of conservative talking points.
	That's the difference.
	There are levels to this game.
	Here's what I want you to think of when you watch a guy like this, okay?
	What sport did you play?
	Any of you play a sport, let's say it's basketball, let's say it's hockey.
	Pretty good?
	Okay, I want you to think of the best person you know at that sport.
	Let's say it's basketball.
	Let's say it's football.
	Think of the best person you ever competed with.
	How far did they go?
	Now, you're probably not offended at that.
	Why?
	Because they probably worked a lot harder than you, right?
	They probably spent all day practicing and preparing.
	Well, they were black.
	Now, here's, yes, here's what, we have black, we have like, we have a black viewer.
	I want you to think of the difference between your level and the level of that person.
	Now think of the difference between the level of the best person at the sport that you played, that you know, and let's say an NBA All-Star, or let's say someone who made it to the first round draft right at the NFL.
	Now, you have the NBA All-Stars.
	Compare that to LeBron or Michael Jordan or a Tom Brady.
	There are levels to this game and you're going in with someone at that level, Donald Trump.
	This isn't enough.
	You have to make up for it with grit.
	This won't work.
	Let's see what Vivek might try.
	He's doing the white supremacist symbol.
	Remember that was the white supremacist symbol?
	There's a demand side problem in this country.
	A mental health epidemic.
	They lost their son Sebastian, 17 years old.
	He bought Percocet on Snapchat and then he died.
	Why did he die?
	Because it was laced with fentanyl.
	That is closer to bioterrorism.
	Well let's be honest, the fentanyl was a bonus if he was buying Percocet on Snapchat.
	But he died.
	It wasn't like he wasn't looking for it.
	He just had too much.
	I'm just tired of everyone making just fentanyl the boogeyman.
	Like, I get it, of course.
	You shouldn't be taking any street drugs because fentanyl could be in it.
	But they try and make it seem like kids are getting addicted to fentanyl because they had a Percocet from a root canal.
	It's a third rail.
	No one wants to say that the opioid epidemic is something that politicians don't want to actually address and doctors now can't prescribe painkillers to people who have been in car wrecks.
	I have a theory about that.
	Yeah?
	Because it is becoming so dangerous, percocet, whatever.
	Well it's not though, it's fentanyl, it's street drugs.
	No, I'm saying, but these drugs that aren't street drugs are laced with this crap.
	Eventually, I would think, as retarded as our youth is in this country, they're gonna be like, I'm not doing drugs anymore.
	Well, at some point, we'll see.
	At some point.
	There'll be 11 kids left in the country.
	It's like double dare.
	Huh?
	But I'm saying, eventually you're going to know somebody who knows somebody, or everybody's going to know somebody.
	I don't know.
	Let's see what DeSantis has to say.
	...to go after the Mexican drug cartels.
	They are killing our people.
	The military... Hey, don't talk about my brother!
	...in 18 months, parents rented an Airbnb.
	And apparently the people that had rented it before were using drugs... Oh yeah, by the way, this Ilia Calderon, she said that Trump's rhetoric empowers white supremacists.
	So I guess it empowers that little spot in her neck.
	What is she doing on a panel?
	Fox News always has to both sides.
	I am not going to do that.
	I guarantee you on day one, this border is going to be a day one issue for me as president.
	We're going to declare it a national emergency.
	Yes, we'll build the wall.
	We'll do Remain in Mexico.
	But those Mexican drug cartels are going to be treated like the foreign terrorist organizations that they are.
	I need Vice President Pence!
	Just last month, Vice President Pence, you said if elected, you would repeal all Obamacare mandates.
	However, you also made that same promise in 2016.
	And at that time, Trump and Pence had congressional majorities for at least the first two years.
	And you did not deliver on that promise.
	So Obamacare, right now, it is more popular than ever.
	Why should Americans trust you to become president to fix that?
	Or is Obamacare here to stay?
	Look at his smug face.
	I'm sorry, I really don't know.
	Well first let me speak to the mass shootings issue and then I'll answer that question.
	It's important one day now.
	He always says, well first let me thank.
	Well first let me speak.
	First let me bullshit!
	And as a father of three, as a grandfather of three beautiful little girls, I'm gonna...
	I am sick and tired of these mass shootings happening in the United States of America.
	And if I'm president of the United States, I'm going to go to the Congress of the United States and we're going to pass a federal expedited death penalty for anyone involved in a mass shooting.
	Oh yeah, death penalty does so much to stop crime right now.
	It is a deterrent.
	It's not.
	But he's not going to be able to get a federal death penalty on that.
	It's just not even a deterrent.
	You notice that Pence Comment.
	Do you notice that Pence picks the solutions that obviously can never be implemented?
	He picks them just because it's something that no one can call him on.
	Did you just request a tissue?
	Is your nose ready?
	Are you upset?
	I just, I might cry.
	By the way, here's, you know what a gangbanger has never done?
	Hey!
	Stop man, you could get the death penalty.
	Dang it.
	Yeah.
	That's right.
	I'm sorry.
	Or a mentally ill kid shooting up his school.
	I mean, I'm still pro-death penalty, but yeah.
	I'm pro-death penalty, but thank you, Mike Pence, for giving us something that is going to do nothing to stop the violence in this country.
	He's like a guy at a party who's two drinks in who acts like he has an inside lane, like, hey, look, Nick, you know how you stop mass shootings in this country?
	Got a hot tip.
	I got two words for you.
	Death penalty.
	What?
	Heard it here first.
	I'm not kidding here.
	You look at him.
	But...
	Elite Gifford.
	Yeah, exactly.
	I don't know what that means, but I feel like it's accurate.
	I do too.
	I went with it.
	Alright, let's see what he said.
	May I remind everyone to keep within their time frame so that we can get as many questions as possible.
	And Burgum, please shut the hell up.
	This question is for Governor DeSantis.
	Over 26 million Americans don't have insurance coverage.
	Governor DeSantis, two and a half million of them are in your state.
	That's worse than the national average.
	Can Americans trust you on this?
	Well, I think this is a symptom of our overall economic decline.
	Everything has gotten more expensive.
	You see insurance rates are going through the roof.
	People that are going to get groceries.
	I spoke with a woman in Iowa and she said, you know, for the first time in my life, I'm having to take things out of my grocery cart when I get to the checkout line because the total goes up so quickly.
	No, you're not.
	So this is very real and people are hurting out there.
	And I said to her, like, what?
	She couldn't come up with anything.
	She was a fucking liar.
	That's the end of the anecdote.
	What, I didn't slap her?
	Of course I did.
	Yeah, we need more honesty.
	We need more lie detectors and Kroger's.
	He's going to turn into Paul Linn, the anchor he gets.
	I was an Eagle Scout, goddammit.
	our honesty for winning more lie detectors and Kroger's gas prices he's
	gonna turn into Paul in the anchor he recognized our health care is putting
	patients at I was an eagle scouts god damn it how much and we need to tell
	those what and have more power for the people and the doctor-patient
	relationship Why is your record in Florida on insurance worse than the national average?
	Our state's a dynamic state.
	We've got a lot of folks that come.
	Of course, we've had a population boom.
	We also don't have a lot of welfare benefits in Florida.
	You know, we're basically saying, this is a field of dreams.
	You can do well in the state.
	But we're not going to be like California and have massive numbers of people on government programs without work requirements.
	We believe you work and you got to do that.
	And so that goes for all the welfare benefits.
	And you know what that's done, Stuart?
	Our unemployment rate is the lowest amongst any big state.
	We have the highest GDP growth amongst any big state.
	And even CNBC, no fan of mine, ranked Florida the number one economy in America.
	Pivoted.
	At least that made sense.
	It's like the brain sent the signal to his mouth.
	Yes, white neck.
	Yes, white neck.
	It's alopecia.
	She looks like the Hispanic Dana Perino.
	First of all, how can we be the This is one thing that Donald Trump does relatively well.
	A lot of people don't realize this.
	issue my mom was in the hospital and when she was in the hospital they took her...
	Point out the giant handout that was Obamacare to insurance companies. This is one thing
	that Donald Trump does relatively well. A lot of people don't realize this. Okay, so
	Obamacare said you cannot deny people for pre-existing conditions. I understand that.
	That sounds good to a lot of people because they say, you know, I pre-exist.
	Let's say I have cancer.
	Let's say if you're a millennial, you're a Gen Z, you have generalized anxiety or acne and you can't get insurance because of that.
	So you can't be denied for pre-existing conditions.
	However, there was nothing to tell the insurance companies that they had to put a cap on it.
	So now they have to accept every single person who, by the way, they decided to cut out of their insurance pool because insurance is something you're supposed to buy preemptively, because you'll be costly coming with a pre-existing condition, and they decided to add those costs to everyone's insurance plan.
	Insurance companies never made more money.
	They never saw the biggest.
	Year-to-year increase.
	I never saw a bigger, sorry, year-to-year increase than after Obamacare.
	And it was all done under the guise of you, by the way, the people getting the 50 million.
	Remember they used to cite that number of uninsured when a large number of those people are people who chose to not be insured because they were young and healthy.
	Talk about the handouts to the insurance industry and tie it to Pfizer and Moderna with the vaccine.
	I don't know why they don't do it.
	Sorry, we have to go back to Varney and the lady in white.
	And by the way, his suit jacket, it doesn't help, is so short and his sleeve is so long.
	because the federal government got involved the silliest thing I've ever
	heard. I live in a trash can!
	I know those are muffin props.
	All of you that are watching have been to a doctor's office when the doctor's got his back to you and his hands on a
	keyboard.
	And by the way his suit jacket it doesn't help is so short and his sleeve is so long.
	Yes.
	Quick question.
	I hate the way you look.
	Why weren't you born in a Jim Henson creature shop?
	But also bring up the, uh, uh, uh, what's his name?
	Oscar the Grouch.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	Hey, control room.
	Give me the average cost for an MRI in the United States real quick.
	What's the government's role in finding a way forward?
	The second Republican debate rolls on from Simi Valley.
	And we're doing a good enough job teaching our children what America is and what she represents in the long history of the world.
	Really quickly here.
	All right.
	So they gave me that.
	Average cost of an MRI is $1,325.
	You know why?
	Insurance.
	I went to a place that doesn't take insurance, doesn't need you to have a doctor send that in.
	They got me in within an hour on a Saturday, and I think it cost me $375 cash.
	I have one better than that.
	I blew out my back when I was working for Fox News in New York City.
	Don't say you have one better.
	That was pretty good.
	That's pretty good.
	I'm sorry, I didn't mean to top you.
	By the way, the promo code is CrowderDebate and I will be taking your chat.
	So I blew out my back.
	Remember they had to cut off my pants because I lost all motor function in my leg.
	Then the male nurse shoved his finger up my ass.
	They do that to check to see if you have any damage to your lower spine.
	He had fingers like Polish sausages.
	They misread the MRI.
	They read the wrong MRI.
	The chairman of Lenox Hill Hospital in Manhattan, because I couldn't go home.
	They sent me home.
	They said, you're fine.
	I couldn't walk home.
	I had to have an intern from Hannity take me home and help me change my pants.
	They said, sorry, you got the wrong MRI.
	Let's just check.
	Oh, you don't have insurance.
	I didn't at this time.
	And they said, sorry, the $12,000 bill.
	It's $250.
	Paid it.
	Boom.
	I was good to go.
	Yeah.
	Steve, I went to the same doctor.
	That wasn't a finger.
	We're the doctor.
	I thought it was Sebastian Delmonista.
	I thought it was Paul Provenza.
	That's the problem.
	No, we're good.
	Alright, let's go to a...
	Is the first commercial break that we're going to go to, is there BTS there?
	Is that what we're talking about?
	Yeah, we have a lot of BTS reel.
	So we are going to be back here with you in a couple...
	I have to go use the bathroom.
	We won't miss the debate.
	We will not miss any of the debate.
	Keep it up in the lower third while the break keeps rolling.
	And, you know, we have these shows on Fridays sometimes where you get to see what happens behind the scenes with all these sketches, everything going on with the show.
	And, you know, sometimes it's the kind of thing that should never make air, and the entire thing is the YouTube dump button.
	So we're continuing with the debate in about 30 seconds.
	Experiences deep within.
	Anyone here ever used Icy Hot and touched your pecker?
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	Sorry, Molly.
	The many d***s that Nick DiPaolo saw in my Rorschach test.
	That's perfect!
	Can't top that!
	I invited him to pleasure my d***, which he availed himself with great vigor and zeal.
	that at least you don't have like purple rings under your eyes. Yeah. That's cool. Is this from
	Trolls 4?
	So, Stephen, I got an idea.
	Check this out.
	It's like a house party, right?
	Kids hanging out, getting loose.
	Maybe some people hanging off the sides of the stairs.
	Suddenly a guy walks in and says, hey, you want to try this CB Distillery tincture?
	See, the problem with that is the implication is that they're inebriated.
	This is, the sponsor is CB Distillery.
	It's CBD.
	It's the opposite.
	No one, you don't get high.
	It's anti-psychoactive.
	Well, let me finish.
	Yeah, let's get more.
	So then, everyone tries it?
	And then everyone gets really high.
	Yeah, no.
	God, no.
	Gosh.
	Joe, can you jump in here?
	Okay, fine.
	Look, so here's the pitch, right?
	So this is a hard-working father, right?
	He's in the boardroom.
	We've got, like, pictures of him at the restaurant, a montage of him walking in the city with skyscrapers in the background, right?
	You following me?
	He comes home, drops his briefcase.
	He's loosening up his tie.
	and then he lights up a CB distillery cigarette and passes that in his kid's room.
	Oh god, Gerald, you two, no, no! This is CBD, okay? It doesn't get you high, that's the whole point.
	It's CBD, it helps with stress, anxiety, it can help with inflammation, it's anti-inflammatory,
	it can help you with some pain after exercise.
	Okay, exercise.
	All right, I got one.
	Football player just got done training for the day, right?
	So he's gonna sit down, he wants to ice his knee.
	So he's gonna reach into his bag, he's gonna grab some of this, what is it, CBD relief stick?
	Yeah, works for that.
	He's gonna start to apply it on himself, okay?
	And suddenly, he starts realizing how big his hands are getting, and how heavy his feet are.
	No, no, no!
	It's not psychoactive, it's CBD.
	You don't get high.
	It's anti-inflammatory, it's actually anti-psychotic.
	See, so they have third-party lab tests.
	All the science is there on their website.
	It basically sells itself.
	Am I gonna have to write this on my own?
	Yeah.
	Yeah, you should.
	But we can edit it.
	Deal.
	Yeah.
	Wait, are we filming it right now?
	Steven's not here, man!
	Go to CBDiscovery.com.
	Enter the promo code CROWDER for up to 60% off!
	60% off.
	Whoa.
	Hootie, what are you doing, man?
	Oh, I'm trying the new pudding from- Alright, well, hold on.
	You could transition a little bit, man.
	Well, there's- I mean, you could've been- We're trying out loud.
	The debate's back, so we wanted to make sure.
	By the way, really quickly, because we have very few sponsors, but we do them often with these livestreams.
	It's CB Distillery.
	It's actually 60% off.
	Yeah!
	Helped your neck, by the way.
	It did a little bit.
	And helped my neck quite a bit.
	I mean, licking that?
	Who knew? There's a lot of actually, there's a lot of scientific research on CBD specifically with neuropathic
	pain. I was you know in third chair last week, you may not know this because I couldn't move my neck after using the
	CBD distillery and by the way after surgery I used their stuff to
	Keep it in the lower third always, Toolman, if you can, please.
	After surgery, I was able to use it, and the only thing they had me take was gabapentin, so no narcotics.
	And the CBD helped a lot.
	By the way, if you take their full-spectrum CBD, which you should, you will test positive on a drug test because there's less than .3% THC.
	Just so you know.
	I was doing a life insurance policy and they were like, what's this?
	It's 60%.
	Let's go to the Rockefeller Christmas tree, Nikki Haley.
	It's not just 20% up to 60% off.
	It's fantastic.
	Let's go to the Rockefeller Christmas tree, Nikki Haley.
	And let states decide what education looks like in their states.
	And we need to start building things in America again.
	Let's put vocational classes back in our high schools and let's get our kids building
	with things that we know they can make.
	Let's put you back in finishing school.
	When we start to focus on that and really bring in that parental involvement, that's
	when we'll start to see a difference.
	But we've got to get parents back included.
	We've got to quit spending time on this DEI and CRT and instead focus on that.
	Nick DiPaolo is the most clever man I've ever met in my life and it's silly stupid shit that makes him laugh.
	Yeah, yeah.
	Why is she in a hockey rink?
	To have the jobs of the next generation.
	On the subject of education, on the subject of education,
	a question for Governor Christie.
	Students in your state are getting high marks on their report cards,
	but minorities are not doing well with math and reading.
	African-American students averaging 29 points lower than most students in New Jersey.
	Would you address minorities first?
	No, you have to address all students.
	And look, in our state, Stuart, frankly, before I was governor, that gap was close to 50%.
	And what we did was institute more charter schools and more renaissance schools and more public school choice in New Jersey with innovative solutions in cities like Camden.
	Now we took what was the worst school district in America during my time and we have now increased that by nearly 40% in terms of their proficiency.
	It can be done when you give people choice.
	Hey, if you're really upset with the fat jokes with Christy, can you let us know?
	Again, you can comment.
	If you like the t- just, you know, you can also comment or hit the like button on YouTube or on Rumble.
	We're children.
	That's Nick DiPaolo, and by the way- Oh, is somebody complaining?
	You should tune in to his show every day at five.
	Is somebody fucking whining at home?
	No, no, no.
	This is the funniest- No, no, no.
	This 5 p.m.
	Eastern.
	I can't tell you how... Put it back on the debate!
	Okay, sorry.
	Someone help me, guys!
	...for the worst of their teachers... Someone help me!
	...the President of the United States is to take on the Teachers Union.
	I did it in New Jersey, and I will do it as President of the United States.
	Oh, listen to this.
	Governor?
	New role.
	You can't fucking moderate a debate if you can't speak.
	Here it goes.
	It's pronounced GOO-enor.
	says, quote, slaves develop skills which in some instances could be applied for their
	personal benefit.
	You have said- It's pronounced Gwener.
	We round the W.
	Not because of it.
	But many are still hurting.
	He's probably going to have a strong answer here.
	Scowl!
	Yeah, what's the matter with this guy?
	He's doing his Clint Eastwood.
	Talking with his thumb!
	First of all, that's a hoax that was perpetrated by...
	Drink!
	Talking with his thumb! Drink!
	Bring up the drinking game rules, by the way, for everyone who's watching right now.
	Hashtag Crowder Debate Night.
	Anytime he talks with his thumb, you drink. Let's go back to...
	Stop playing these games. Here's the deal.
	Our country's education system is in decline because it's focused on indoctrination...
	Well, then kick out the Chinese kids!
	Good night, everybody.
	...the revival of American education...
	We're ranked number one in the nation in education by U.S.
	News and World Report.
	My wife and I, we have a six, five, and three-year-old.
	This is personal to us.
	We didn't just talk about universal school choice, we enacted universal school choice.
	Tim Scott's like, that's my kid.
	That's my kid.
	I was a milkman.
	Then I moved to South Carolina.
	It's Dikembe Mutombo's kid, what are you talking about?
	That's a good reference.
	in our schools in a really big way just like President Reagan asked for in his farewell
	address back in 1989.
	Florida is showing how it's done.
	We're standing with parents and our kids are benefiting.
	Okay, thank you Paula.
	What is your message for Governor DeSantis?
	There is not a redeeming quality in slavery.
	He and Kamala should have just taken the one sentence out.
	America has suffered because of slavery, but we've overcome that.
	No, I think this is good, though.
	He's getting a jumping off point.
	You're a big Tim Scott fan, huh?
	I like him.
	I like to kick him in his ass.
	So often we think that all the issues, we talk about crime and education and healthcare, we always think that those issues go back to slavery.
	Here's the challenge, though.
	What's the challenge?
	Black families survived slavery.
	We survived poll taxes and literacy tests.
	We survived discrimination being woven into the laws of our country.
	I'm considering your word whiskers tonight.
	That remains to be seen.
	Was Johnson's Great Society where they decided to put money...
	He drank his milk tonight.
	He's coming in, he's getting a little... Look, this is the real Tim Scott.
	I want him to show the real Tim Scott.
	Early on he wasn't.
	Remember last time I said, there's no boring black people?
	No, there are not.
	If you want to restore hope, you've got to restore the family.
	He drank his milk tonight.
	He's coming in, he's getting a little...
	Look, this is the real Tim Scott.
	That's what I said to you.
	I want him to show the real Tim Scott.
	Early on he wasn't.
	Remember last time I said, there's no boring black people?
	No, there are not.
	And then I woke up tonight.
	There you go.
	you go.
	Right direction.
	It's why I can say I have been discriminated against, but America is not a racist country.
	Never ever doubt who we are.
	We are the greatest country on God's green earth.
	And frankly, the city of Manhattan needs a brand new leader.
	18,000 public schools nationwide.
	Well, the northern border is open.
	He could get hit with a Clamato.
	...to change their identity without parental notification.
	Governor Christie told Stewart last week that he would pass a federal law to protect parental rights.
	He looks like the actor who played...
	Vivek looks like the actor, if he was Brown, who played the mayor of Gotham in The Dark Knight.
	Bring him up. You'll see what I'm talking about.
	Gary Oldman?
	No, no, no, the mayor.
	Oh, the mayor.
	Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, okay, I know what you're talking about.
	He's got the most powerful hair dryer in the city.
	They were wrong.
	You just said, get pass-a-piece?
	Get pass-a-piece.
	to know and you know what the hypocrisy of this is? Even New Hampshire failed to actually get past a piece of
	legislation here.
	You just didn't get past a piece?
	Get past a piece.
	It's not like you said, get, and then Tim Scott said, get a piece of ass.
	Aww.
	Come on, Vivek.
	Yeah, look.
	It is not compassionate to affirm a kid's confusion.
	That is not compassion, that is cruelty.
	I met two young women, Chloe and Katie, early in this campaign, who are in their 20s, now regret getting double mastectomies and a hysterectomy.
	One of them will never have children.
	And the fact that we allow that to happen in this country is barbaric.
	So I will ban genital mutilation.
	I'm going to pass a federal law that says parents should have that right.
	That's my favorite.
	You are a child's plaything!
	Let me just say this up a lap.
	I'm not going to pass a law that says parents should have that right.
	What is this?
	I'm trying to figure.
	He's got an Italian nose.
	He's a German guy.
	It's Martin Scorsese.
	Listen, listen, he being a problem in North Dakota is because we have a business leader.
	I've got more experience than he has a business leader.
	90% of voters don't know who he is or that he is running for president.
	Yes.
	That's a stat.
	That's a real stat.
	He's not even going to sell books.
	Overlay 04.
	How did he qualify?
	Bring up overlay 04.
	94.
	What did he do?
	Blow?
	90% of voters don't know who Doug Burgum is just yet.
	Well, holding out hope.
	How did he get into the debate?
	There's a chance.
	Gave one of the Murdoch kids a handjob.
	More than that.
	That's why we have 50 platforms of innovation.
	That's why we have states.
	There are certain things the federal government is supposed to do.
	I'm making fun of a guy who's a multi-zillionaire.
	Alright!
	Like I said, great to be here with you.
	Thank you very much.
	Thank you, Diane.
	And by the way, everyone give a hand or send a comment in for everyone who makes this happen here behind the scenes.
	They help with the drinks, they help with the research.
	They do.
	And even though Mr. Marks here is... He'd have a better chance if he just started singing like Billy Joel's Moving Out.
	Just anything.
	Just anything.
	Just pick up where you left off last time they cut you off.
	Vice President Pence, the Department of Homeland Security warns that violence against LGBTQ plus people is on the rise.
	Oh, for the love of Christ.
	According to a recent study...
	...he said that Donald Trump...
	...was a man of few words.
	My wife...
	...is a very good friend of mine.
	She's a very good friend of mine.
	My wife...
	...isn't a member of the TGTU...
	...but I've got to admit...
	I've been sleeping with a teacher for 38 years.
	Full disclosure.
	Look, education in this state... What?
	He's looking for a laugh, man.
	The state of Indiana had one of the very first... I've been sleeping with a teacher... Guys made a naughty pine.
	And when I was governor of the state of Indiana, we doubled it.
	Well, that's his biography.
	The place beyond the knotty pines.
	Gosling's riding a dirt bike behind him in a bank heist.
	Yeah, as a flyweight.
	Then I went to, but he broke the scale.
	They had to weigh him at the zoo.
	Joshlings riding a dirt bike behind him in a bank heist.
	You have a permission slip from your parents to get a Tylenol, but you could get a gender
	transition plan without notifying your parents.
	I weighed in with the foundation.
	That's not bad policy.
	That's crazy.
	Chris, he did too, but he broke the scale.
	We're going to stand up for the rights of parents.
	They had to weigh him at the zoo.
	They put him in a free-willy hammock and had to break down his north wall.
	I weighed in on the issue and then I went to a shell station.
	I was dumbfounded.
	What did you say again about that Chris Christie?
	With the ability to choose where their kids go to school...
	Got a crawler stuck in the middle.
	You empower parents, and our schools will straighten up and reflect our values.
	Can you guys let me know if you disagree here?
	Everything with him is a platitude.
	It's not really specific.
	You embolden parents.
	That's right.
	You're absolutely right.
	Okay, I agree with you in principle, Mike Pence, but this is your opportunity to let people know how you're going to make a difference.
	This guy is just a professional coattail rider.
	Let's watch Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous.
	Liberace's gold toilet!
	Yes, this is important.
	toilet.
	That is one chips act per year.
	Governor DeSantis, you say companies like Google and Meta have too much power.
	Yes, this is important.
	Doesn't going after them give China an edge?
	No, I think you look at how our societies develop.
	They have huge amount of power over our society.
	They've cracked down on free speech.
	We're not saying you don't want to do business, but you want it to be a free market.
	Give me a specific here.
	Section 230, what are you going to do?
	This affects everybody, especially with rumble right now in international governments.
	Give me a specific.
	We have subcontracted out so much of our national needs to the CCP.
	We rely on them for a whole host of issues.
	We need to reshore and we need to decouple all those important industries.
	We need to get that back in the United States.
	They are our top geopolitical adversary by a country mile.
	Xi Jinping's got huge ambitions, not only in Asia Pacific, but generally in our region.
	Go!
	Look, look, I'm sorry.
	we've got to beat them on the economy and so that's what we'll do as president of the United States.
	Governor Christie, I wanted to follow up on this because 22% of American workers fear their jobs will be lost to a robot.
	And you said in the past...
	Look, look, I'm sorry. This is the reason. That's all Fox gives them. On the biggest issue of our time.
	Social media, these tech giants, five companies control everything that you see in here.
	We're experiencing it right now.
	Not only yours truly, Russell Brand, by the way.
	Of course, you've seen what's happened with Rumble.
	You literally have the UK Parliament telling Rumble that they are going to ban them.
	By the way, they were already banned by the French government at one point.
	They flipped them the bird.
	These people have more power than world governments.
	They have more power than, think of this, the Senate when you're going back to Rome.
	Think about that for a second.
	And they skim past it.
	Why?
	Well, because Fox is News Corp.
	And by the way, they spend billions of dollars advertising on big tech every year.
	So they want to keep that stranglehold.
	This is that sort of coordinated professional wrestling.
	When you have CNN, Turner, you've got ABC, Disney, NBCUniversal, News Corp.
	They don't really want to lose the foothold that they have on YouTube, that they have on Facebook and Instagram.
	So they don't want to ask these questions and push too hard.
	It's the most important issue that affects every single one of you.
	Right now, if you search this show, Steven Crowder, Change My Mind, Abortion, you will find something else.
	Likely from News Corp or PBS.
	That's why, by the way, head on over to Rumble.
	We do not take a dime on YouTube from advertisers there.
	We can't.
	And we chose not to.
	We were allowed to at one point, and we said, you know what?
	No, we're not going to self-censor.
	That's all they get?
	The most important issue of our time.
	Imagine right now if you were to go out into a town square before the internet, and if you were to start speaking, and they arrested every single one of you.
	That's what's happening with big tech.
	And they get one question, and then move on to the CCP.
	There is no issue that is more important.
	You lose your voice, you lose everything.
	My God, Fox News.
	So the answer is I have a radical idea for the Republican Party.
	We need to win elections.
	And part of how we win elections is reaching the next generation of young Americans where they are.
	So when I get into office, I've been very clear.
	Kids under the age of social, under the age of 16, should not be using and getting into social media.
	We're only going to ever get to declaring independence from China,
	which I favor if we actually win.
	So while the Democrats are running rampant, reaching the next generation 3 to 1, there's exactly one person in the Republican Party which talks a big game about reaching young people, and that's me.
	And let me level with all of you, I'm the new guy here.
	Did you just say, I talk a big game?
	That's not a positive, that's like, you know, there's one person here who lies through his teeth, and that's me.
	You didn't lose the last election, okay?
	Do they all believe you lost?
	No.
	No!
	Stop trying to reach out to these people!
	Okay, do they all believe you lost people the best and brightest in this country whatever age they are no
	Advising me no be probably many of the people on this People they hate you I want can't reach out to them unless
	you change section Look, this is the rigged game, and I'm telling you this with conservatives across the board.
	They don't want a runoff, because if you talk about 230, you end up like us, where you end up on Rumble, and you end up being suspended on YouTube and demonetized, and it's a game of cat and mouse.
	All of them want those dollar-dollar bills from big tech, and until any of them grow the balls to speak up against it, It is a rigged game and it is professional wrestling.
	It is kabuki theater.
	That is the most important issue, period.
	And all of them have sidestepped.
	Is it me?
	Except for Trump and he's crushing it.
	Yeah, exactly.
	So there you go.
	Nikki Haley, let's see.
	That means they can get your contacts, they can get your financial information, they can get your emails, they can get your text messages, they can get all of these things.
	This is very important for our party and I'm going to say it.
	This is very important for our party and I'm going to say it.
	You've gone and you've helped China build medicine and China's not America.
	You're now wanting kids to go and get all this stuff from me and it's dangerous for all of us.
	He's performing horribly right now.
	Let me say something!
	We can't trust you. We can't trust you. We can't have TikTok and all that.
	I think that we need to ban TikTok.
	Let me say something. Let me talk to this Indian bitch.
	You have 15 seconds, Mr. Ramaswamy.
	Thank you.
	♪♪ ♪♪
	♪♪ All of those people and the same people, but it's a revolving door.
	Our own country is being invaded.
	We don't even have control of our own territory.
	We have got to defend the American people before we even worry about all these other things.
	And I watch these guys in Washington, D.C., and they don't care about the American people.
	They don't care about the fentanyl deaths.
	They don't care about the communities being overrun because of this border.
	They don't care about the Mexican drug cartels.
	So as Commander-in-Chief, I will defend this country's sovereignty.
	He's been pretty strong on that.
	He's absolutely right about that.
	That's the number one issue.
	Who cares about the economy if they don't have a country?
	He's done more on the immigration issue than probably anyone on that stage, and so he has a leg to stand on.
	It is a loan.
	90% of the money that we send over there is loan.
	We can talk about this, but at the end of the day, 90% of the money that we send over there is actually in the form of a loan.
	It's actually not being paid by Ukraine, it's being paid by the NATO, our NATO allies.
	I think it's a good topic for debate.
	I think it's a really good topic for debate.
	I will say, let's debate the fact that our national vital interest is in the United States.
	Don't listen to him!
	They didn't wait for you, Vivek!
	by degrading the Russian military, we actually keep our homeland safer, we keep our troops
	at home, and we all understand Article 5 of NATO.
	We have to let them what the American people are.
	I thought you said something about waiting until your return.
	Don't listen to him.
	They didn't wait for you, Vivek.
	I'm going to finish my, I'll be happy to debate this.
	Go ahead and I'll respond.
	I'll be looking forward to this one right now.
	So at the end of the day, when you think about the fact that if you want to keep American
	troops at home, the attack on NATO territory would bring us and our troops in.
	By degrading the Russian military, we reduce, if not eliminate, an attack.
	No.
	Did I miss something?
	But NATO has an interest in defending Ukraine, and so therefore... But is Ukraine NATO?
	No, uh-uh.
	No.
	Okay.
	Putin's an evil dictator does not mean that Ukraine is good.
	This is a country that has banned 11 opposition parties.
	Just keep talking.
	Come on, come on, Vivek.
	This is a strong point for you.
	These people are so tone-deaf on this stage, they don't know the vast majority of Americans do not want money going to Ukraine.
	Go, Vivek, go!
	Go!
	Flying V!
	Go Flying V!
	Hit another talking point, Mike Pence.
	Maybe someone will hear you.
	And they're not even his talking point!
	this especially this is a country whose president just last week
	Ukraine that's a green light to China to take Taiwan.
	We need a reasonable plan.
	We need another talking point Mike Pence maybe someone will hear you.
	And they're not even his talking point, they're from 1980.
	President, Governor Christie.
	President Biden's first two years, Russia and Iran, together.
	We focus too much on Ukraine and not enough on this threat from the new world order.
	No, they're all connected, Stuart. They're all connected.
	The Chinese are paying for the Russian war in Ukraine.
	The Iranians are supplying more sophisticated weapons.
	And so are the North Koreans now as well, with the encouragement of the Chinese.
	The naivety on this stage from some of these folks is extraordinary.
	Look, I understand people want to go and talk to Putin.
	Guess what?
	So did George W. Bush.
	So did Barack Obama.
	So did Donald Trump.
	And so did Joe Biden when he said a small invasion wouldn't be so bad.
	Every one of them has been wrong.
	And the fact of the matter is, we need to say right now that the Chinese-Russian alliance is something we have to fight against and we are not going to solve it by going over and cuddling up to Vladimir Putin.
	Look, Donald Trump said Vladimir Putin was brilliant and a great leader.
	This is the person who is murdering people in his own country and now not having enough blood, he's now going to Ukraine to murder innocent civilians.
	I'm pretty sure that Donald Trump said that about Putin.
	And again, what he did say was that he said Putin is not an idiot.
	He said Putin is a smart person.
	Right.
	By the way, Hitler was an evil man.
	He was a smart man, just to be clear.
	I would say Stalin, not all that bright.
	Lenin was pretty bright and an evil person.
	I'm pretty sure that President Donald Trump said that before Chris Christie supported him, just to be clear.
	And now he's trying to act as though, oh, I've been a moral continual.
	The voice of reason.
	You're trying to really like, or at least you have experience in it, and we need to talk about America's farmers, because there is a foreign policy connection here.
	The U.S.
	and China have a serious economic competition.
	Here's where they pander to farmers and talk about subsidies.
	It's hurting American businesses, and there is blowback against American farmers because China then targets them in retaliation.
	How would you as president protect American farmers and ranchers from that kind of retaliation from a foreign government like China?
	Well, first of all, we've got the best farmers and ranchers in the world right here in America.
	If they have a level playing field, they can outcompete anyone in the world.
	But this is part of the larger issue that we're talking about here, which is we're in a Cold War with China.
	The Biden administration won't admit that.
	But we're also in a economic war through what we're doing with agriculture and energy.
	And we're also in a war with them relative to... Talk about China buying up American farmland.
	In North Dakota, every state, every school district, our tribes all being attacked every day by either China, Russia, Iran, or North Korea.
	And now we've got a Biden administration whose whole policy is appeasement.
	They're out there, you know, creating the world, making it less safe.
	Six billion dollars they traded for five people.
	They've just now set a price on anyone's head who is a tourist from America, who's a student from America.
	for kidnapping. If you want more kidnapping, put a price on it.
	And they're also helping Iran get to have more closer to nuclear weapon,
	which pushes all of the Middle East closer to...
	The problem with being so far behind in 90% of Americans not knowing who you are, Groucho,
	is that you have to fit every talking point into every single answer,
	so he's not able to give one clear, lucid answer.
	He's not wrong in anything he's saying, but it's just too much.
	He's getting drowned out because nobody knows who this guy is.
	And by the way, I want to make sure that we clarify.
	You said it correctly, just to give a little bit more context.
	Donald Trump was talking about when he went into Ukraine and when he went into the Eastern part and said, hey, we're just going to go in and we're going to keep the peace.
	And he's like, wow, that's pretty savvy.
	That's not talking to his morals.
	That's talking to his strategy.
	His strategy worked.
	He took Crimea.
	He's taken vast swaths of Eastern Ukraine and the world hasn't stopped him.
	I mean, he's paying a price for it, but the guy's smart.
	The guy is savvy.
	He's getting what he wants.
	So far.
	That's what he was referring to.
	Mark Zuckerberg's not an idiot, and I think he's evil.
	I don't know why people feel that they have to lie about that.
	Let's watch Miss Pigment.
	Mexico is the United States' most important trade partner.
	border security. You say you will send special operations to attack the
	cartels in Mexico. So this means boots on the ground, drone strikes?
	It means special operations.
	It's how we deal with our terrorists.
	And what you need to do is understand that Mexico's not being a good partner if we lost 75,000 Americans last year.
	Mexico's not being a good partner if they're letting the cartels get away with what they're getting away with.
	What we will do is we will make sure that we send in our special operations and we will take out... Don't you love how these people... I'm sorry.
	But we're going to go after China, because China is the one sending the fentanyl in the first place.
	And we will end all normal trade relations until China stops sending fentanyl.
	No you won't.
	That is an absolute lie.
	You will not do that.
	I don't care if they're sending over enough to kill 100,000 citizens a day, you will not end relations with China.
	You're not going to do it.
	If you go by body mass of the Chinese, it's 250,000, but yes.
	You notice they try and take everything to Fentanyl?
	That's why it's that whole, like, hey, it's the sleight of hand.
	It's like, hey, Fentanyl, Fentanyl, Fentanyl.
	And so they don't want you to actually look at the facts.
	They're not answering.
	Look, someone should just say this.
	Screw Mexico, OK?
	We'll talk about the CCP.
	We'll talk about Fentanyl.
	Mexico doesn't care about you.
	Their government is corrupt, for crying out loud.
	These people aren't doing a damn thing.
	We're not going to work with Mexico until they clean up their own country.
	And by the way, look at their immigration policies.
	If you're not a natural-born Mexican citizen, you can't vote.
	You can't own waterfront property, for crying out loud.
	They all suck.
	We're better.
	That's why we don't do business with them until they start cleaning up their act.
	Yeah, and by the way, Mexico, where's your revolution?
	The cartels are in control of your country.
	You guys really want a better country?
	We paid with blood.
	It sucks, but you have to do it.
	And by the way, Nikki Haley, I'm sorry.
	You're not going to send in special forces and solve the problem.
	We will send in U.S.
	special forces and we will stop.
	We will take out these cartel leaders.
	You know how many times we've done that?
	Do you know how many times the cartel leaders have been taken out?
	By the way, our special forces aren't the people they have to worry about.
	It's rival cartel leaders.
	Because there's always another person ready to take over.
	You would have stopped the problem zero by doing that, but thank you very much for playing this game.
	I thought you knew foreign policy.
	Yeah.
	And I don't dislike Nikki Haley.
	I just think it's a really stupid idea.
	She's afraid.
	She doesn't want her head to end up on a turtle.
	Let's hear Tim Scott.
	Relations committee, also on the finance committee and the banking committee.
	Talk about addressing the issue of fit and all.
	I've written the legislation, passed it through the banking committee and the senate that
	would freeze the assets and sanction the accounts of the Mexican cartels.
	There are weapons that we have within the arsenal that I expect to get passed.
	23 to 0.
	And what do they keep their money right at a regular bank?
	Forever.
	Cartels have their money at the savings loan?
	They're not W-2 employees.
	Oh, exactly.
	El Chapo keeps his money in Luxembourg.
	...intelligence that was available.
	By the way, I'm sorry guys, I need a refill because DeSantis kept talking with his thumb.
	It's key to making sure that we prevent the next 9-11 from ever happening.
	They're planning that right now, by the way.
	It's in Newark.
	It's really important in getting the job done.
	Seriously, they're here.
	It's at the airport.
	They're going to take out a Sparrows.
	They do that, I'll enlist.
	I love that shit.
	You drunken Wapcons, you greasy stereotype, you.
	You hear the fire on the stage tonight.
	You hear the fire in all of our voices.
	The channeling regime.
	Joe Biden has weakened this country.
	Keeper Sutherland.
	You hear Steve Martin.
	This is a time for those of us that have the experience.
	I have a special set of skills.
	The tested experience and a commitment to the conservative agenda that Ronald Reagan brought forward in this party of a strong national defense, standing with our allies, standing up to our enemies.
	Is that a thumb?
	Supporting limited government... Well, it's only for DeSantis, but they're all... This is something that advisors teach you.
	They say, don't point because it feels accusatory, so use your thumb like we don't know.
	The Indian steward, they point upwards.
	They do, they do.
	Stop, I don't dare you!
	Like a guy.
	Mike Pence, you very, very bad VP.
	Well, we're not ready for you to do shit, how about that?
	siren song of populism on more conservative principles.
	Mike Pence, you very, very bad VP.
	I'm the most consistent conservative in this field, and I'm ready to lead America at home and abroad on days
	where we're not ready for you to do shit.
	How about that?
	Yeah, why don't you master the fucking super unlettered?
	We'll let you know.
	I can wait.
	I think it's time for, because the Bidens actually, we've gotten word, are not watching tonight's debate.
	Really?
	I have to go pee pee.
	Okay, well then I guess, uh, let's uh, you know what?
	I can wait.
	You can, well.
	I can wait.
	I think it's time for, uh, because the Bidens actually, we've gotten word, are not watching
	tonight's debate.
	No, really?

	You get Nick's show every day, 5pm, you get Brian Callen, you get the Hodge twins, they're starting their show here in October, you get Alex Jones on Friday, and it allows us to do the kinds of things that would never be permissible on YouTube.
	Like, we always have the inside lane.
	We do.
	Yeah.
	The Bidens are not watching tonight's debate.
	They are not.
	They are doing other things, which brings us to tonight's 7 Plus 1.
	You forgot Stefan in the chamber!
	Oh shoot, my divider and my thing just got broken.
	7 plus 1 list.
	Hold on a second, you have your list there?
	Nick's got one.
	Hold on Nick.
	Nick's right there, he's got yours.
	He's got a list.
	What happened?
	I lost my, oh right, okay.
	This is tonight's 7 plus 1.
	Thank you Nick, I appreciate you.
	I just broke my whole thing.
	You know what, by the way, N, I do need this stapled.
	All right, it's a commercial break.
	Keep the hashtag, keep the lower third up there, Toolman, so people know.
	This is seven plus one things the Biden family is doing instead during the GOP debate.
	Number seven, the Biden family is playing guess who with the Biden family tree.
	That's one.
	Number six, seven plus one things that the Biden family is doing instead of watching the GOP debate.
	They're busy ignoring their seventh granddaughter.
	That's number six.
	Seven plus one things the Biden family is doing instead of watching this debate.
	Number five, Nick DiPaolo.
	Hunter is busy banging his dead brother's widow.
	Oh!
	Still?
	Yummy!
	Well, you know what?
	Hey, the refractory period is impressive.
	Gerald, seven plus one things the Biden family is doing during the GOP debate.
	Number four, filling out ballots for 2024.
	Oh, well, that makes sense.
	That's the hanging crack pipe chat.
	Number three, Joe is dragging his ass across the Roosevelt room carpet.
	So that's...
	Oh, we can't see Gary.
	Oh my goodness gracious.
	Big smile on his face.
	Seven plus one things the Biden family is doing instead of watching the GOP debate.
	Number two, Nick DiPaolo.
	Surprise gifting Zelensky this F-35.
	He made the wall.
	Come on now.
	Surprise.
	It's his birthday?
	I didn't know.
	Like a Lexus commercial.
	It's fantastic.
	And the number one thing the Biden family is doing instead of watching this GOP debate.
	Number one is posing for a family portrait.
	Nude.
	That's the- yeah.
	That's the- It's just family.
	Family zip ties.
	Has it come out of a coal mine?
	I don't know.
	It's the October Sky.
	We're just making sure.
	And actually the plus one of what the Biden family is doing instead of watching the GOP debate.
	Nick DiPaolo, the plus one.
	Jill is setting Joe up with a Hungry Man dinner in front of the TV while she sneaks up to the Lincoln Bedroom to masturbate to a painting of Paul Pelosi that she purchased from her son Hunter for $1,200.
	Oh, wow.
	Well, there you go.
	That's a mouthful.
	That is a ploy.
	That's been... You wrote that.
	I know I did.
	That's been tonight's 7 plus 1.
	I was gonna say.
	You forgot Sivan in the chamber!
	Do we have time for a short break?
	I think we probably do.
	Can you hook us up over there, Toolman?
	We've got some fun stuff for our audience.
	Let's do a short break as they re-congregate for the debate.
	Yeah, I'll get a minute.
	Well, go ahead.
	I can take care of this.
	Alright, you want me to go?
	Yeah, yeah.
	I'll go and then you go to the bathroom.
	Yeah, hold on a second.
	I have to staple this.
	Yeah, hold on a second, I have to staple this.
	Once we get, uh...
	Well, we have people at work.
	No, no, no.
	Not right now.
	Debate's back on.
	We told them they wouldn't miss it at Bally!
	Volume.
	We're here in California, where gas is nearing $6 a gallon.
	Oil is close to $100 a barrel again.
	You say, drill, baby, drill.
	But the courts won't let you.
	Mr. Rameshwami, how would you bring down prices without immediate drilling?
	Well look, I think that we do have to run through the courts and get through that administrative state to make sure we're using the natural resources here at home.
	But there's the other thing that we can do that's easy.
	And it addresses the national debt as well as brings down prices.
	Put people back to work.
	We are using taxpayer money to pay people more to stay at home than to go to work.
	That is wrong.
	That contributes to our supply chain crisis.
	It contributes to inflation.
	That's the easiest way to unlock this economy.
	And here's the other thing.
	We have to put the Federal Reserve back in its place.
	This is an agency that has gone rogue.
	So in January 2026, When I have the opportunity as your next commander-in-chief, we will have a new chairman of the Federal Reserve who places priority on dollar stability, and then most importantly, send packing 75% of the administrative state.
	Reduce the federal employee headcount by 75%.
	Am I missing something here?
	Give me a 2025.
	I asked you about gas prices, Vivek.
	I'm getting to it.
	Alright, Pence.
	I don't know how to pump gas, so I feel unqualified.
	to do that for the year 2025 plan to do it that's how we unleash the economy
	that's how we revive the I asked you about gas prices Vivek constitutional
	I'm getting to it I don't know how to pump gas so go on to the next person I
	yield back my time like taxes are higher than Vivek's hair five years Donald
	Trump did that sir what did he just say to get a round of applause we did
	something in the first time in 75 years Donald Trump did because when Joe Biden
	ran for president he said he was going to end fossil fuels then he realized he
	was a boss himself that ever said By the way, he did it with an executive order on the Keystone Pipeline on day one.
	Why are you guys using the regulatory system when he's using the patent?
	That's not the one we blew up, right?
	That's a different one.
	It's conjecture.
	I have a plan that actually would not only reclaim energy independence, but in 2006,
	America lost our position as the leading energy producer on earth.
	on Earth, I believe in the next 10 years with the right policies and experienced leadership
	in the White House, we can reclaim our role as the leading energy producer on Earth and
	that will grow the American economy for generations to come.
	You turn your back on Trump, suck it.
	Is that the only purpose of leading an energy state?
	Can I answer the energy question?
	No, I'll give it a hand.
	No.
	You know, the first thing I'll say is what I saw at the United Nations is national, energy
	security is national security.
	We need a president that understands we have to partner with our producers and make sure that we have their backs.
	What you don't need is a president who is against energy independence.
	Ron DeSantis is against fracking.
	He's against drilling.
	He's been against... You did it!
	Oh, I stumbled.
	I meant to say balls.
	Look at DeSantis, he's laughing like a schoolgirl.
	He goes, I can't believe this bitch is on stage.
	You banned offshore drilling.
	You did it on federal lands.
	And you took green subsidies that you didn't have to take.
	Governor DeSantis, you were mentioned.
	You have the right to respond. 30 seconds.
	I just did a plan out in West Texas for American energy dominance.
	We're going to choose Midland over Moscow, we're going to choose the Marcellus over the Molas, and we're going to choose Bakken over Beijing, and we are going to lower your gas prices.
	We are going to get that job done because it's important for our national security,
	it's important for jobs, and that's one of the best ways to drive down inflation.
	You banned Friday's debate off the road?
	So we're voting on that because it's ridiculous.
	To answer specifically, our voters enacted a constitutional amendment that doesn't allow
	No, it's not true.
	You banned it before they voted, and not only that— Nikki, you're not— You're not— Nikki, she's just totally wrong.
	They voted it in.
	They're talking here.
	Onshore, we do do it in Florida.
	We don't have as much as maybe West Texas, but we do it.
	But that was a constitutional amendment.
	So that's just wrong, and let's just get real here.
	My plan will get the job done.
	That's him.
	We voted before the voters even voted and the voters didn't even vote on Friday.
	Nicky, you're in your...
	Take a jump.
	We are moving on with this question for Governor DeSantis.
	Governor, as the only leader of an energy state...
	Excuse me.
	We cannot talk about...
	Shut up, Bergen.
	As the only leader of an energy state, I demand no more answers to that question.
	I'm ready, Stuart.
	Governor DeSantis...
	Well, the moderator didn't shush the audience, but they shushed the candidates, so drink.
	Bring up the drinking game rules while the debate continues.
	They told me I needed powder because I was shiny.
	You'd think I was Sicilian.
	Because the colleges are going to have to make a decision.
	Do we offer, do we expand the gender studies department?
	Knowing some of those graduates may not have great learning opportunities, no.
	Good!
	Good!
	Get snippy!
	Get mad!
	I got caught peeing in the fountain.
	It wasn't me.
	It was a setup.
	choices get mad people in four years I also just want to come back some Dana
	ass last segment about 9-11 because I was just at the 9-11 memorial with the
	families my wife and everybody's very touching I got to be there in the
	fountain my life wasn't me it was a three eggs and a fountain
	in Florida I end up getting through Yale and Harvard Law School and somehow came
	out more conservative than when I went in and that is not easy to do had a lot
	of opportunities to make money but I wanted to serve and I'll never forget
	coming back on the plane from Iraq landing in Coronado California North
	Island and feeling that breeze off the Pacific Ocean say you know what I am
	lucky to have been born in America and I think being able to serve and I'll be
	the first president elected since 1988 who's actually served overseas in a war
	I think that's going to help me as commander-in-chief to know how you see
	He is having a good night.
	There are real lives at stake for people that wear the uniform.
	And we know that Governor Haley... Some strong points, some bad points.
	The media is going to remember his attack on Trump, and now he's on that track.
	That is your track now, DeSantis.
	You are at war with Trump.
	Congress is at a mere 19%.
	If this were a business, you'd probably all be fired in Washington.
	Who's that fishing lure sitting behind her?
	In 2013, Governor Haley hired you for the Senate.
	I'd like you to tell her why you should be promoted to CEO of the nation instead of her.
	Certainly.
	One of the things I'd say is if you look at our national debt of $33 trillion, I would love to have an opportunity to have this country pass a balanced budget amendment.
	That would constrain the spending in Washington.
	Come on, that falls on deaf ears.
	A black guy not wanting to spend?
	If you want to actually reduce our national debt, you have to grow our economy.
	I call my plan the Allen Iverson plan.
	Andre Razin as well.
	Civic sector is number one.
	The energy sector.
	We could create between three and three and a half.
	What if he looks at her and they just brought a phone?
	of of
	do to
	the the
	the the form and America
	Wonderful squeeze in America.
	Ray Rice.
	Adrian Rice was... I don't know who that is.
	Adrian Peterson's the guy who's whippin' his kid.
	I appreciate Tim.
	We've known each other a long time.
	But he's been there 12 years and he hasn't done any of that.
	He hasn't.
	Adrian Peterson's the guy who's whipping his kid.
	Oh, okay.
	Like I said, you're confusing your good black dads.
	But he's been there 12 years and he hasn't done any of that.
	He hasn't.
	They've only given...
	Pot meat later?
	Even in the kitchen 12 years, you have yet to make a good pot roast.
	I said, I said, BIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII I appreciate a lot of the things they're saying.
	How many is up for him?
	Let me finish this first.
	Oh, folks are teasing.
	I appreciate a lot of the things they're saying.
	I'm the only one up here who's gotten in big fights and has delivered big victories for the people of Florida.
	No, I'm serious.
	Joe Louis!
	Joey!
	What's he doing?
	He's just like, I don't want it.
	I want to get out.
	in there when they're shooting arrows at you are you going to be stand up for parents rights
	keep the state free are you going to be able to do all those things in the state of florida
	i got bacon i want to go out the democratic party lies in ruins we have won the big fight
	i don't want it i want to get out of state they've got food people respond to the santa
	I've done it while others have talked about it.
	I think we need, if I may just briefly interject here, we need a zero-based budgeting.
	That's the way businesses are actually run.
	Start with zero as the baseline for the budget and then see what's actually necessary.
	There isn't a blue state or a red state in this union that doesn't.
	The federal government doesn't do it.
	But successful companies, including the ones that I've built as a CEO, will do it.
	And I think we need a CEO in the White House to get that done.
	Can I please?
	I'm still here, guys!
	Dana keeps letting him in.
	What's going on there?
	She likes the silver fox.
	I'm still here, guys!
	...energy questions you don't ask...
	Danny keeps letting them in.
	What's going on there?
	I know!
	...you say nobody else has done it.
	She likes the silver fox.
	She's not quite silver yet, but...
	...announced last month by these other folks on stage.
	We're already doing it in North Dakota.
	The border plans they're already talking about.
	We've got troops down at the border flying helicopter missions from North Dakota, from San Diego to the Gulf Coast.
	They're trying to stop transnational criminal organizations from inflicting the invasion in the mask cap.
	He has the lips of the equator.
	We're already doing it.
	It's not saying.
	Nobody else has done the big fights.
	North Dakota was leading the charge.
	We won the battle to get the Biden administration, who was ignoring the law.
	They were the first administration since Truman that wasn't holding the fully-required lease sales, and we won that in federal court.
	Vote us.
	We won that in federal court.
	We're fighting the Biden administration on 20 fronts.
	To say that nobody's fighting the big fights, just look at the record of what we're doing right now.
	Energy, economy, national security have been talking about it since day one, and now finally, good, we're having the conversation about it.
	You're keeping Canadians out.
	You're having it with yourself.
	Do the job.
	And Christy, so do you.
	There's a second round of applause and a...
	Big government keeps getting bigger.
	One fifth of all new jobs this year have been created by the government.
	You say you want to shrink the size of government.
	It has been a century since any president has done that.
	When I took office, we shrunk the state budget general fund by 27% in the first four months I was office.
	We've done it in North Dakota.
	When I took office, we shrunk the state budget general fund by 27% in the first four months
	I was office.
	And we all were transferred up running on time.
	Why?
	Because you have to lock them in there.
	There's 10 or 20% of mind-numbing.
	Soul-sucking.
	work that even the state and federal employees don't want to do.
	Don't say soul sucking when you look like that.
	Soul sucking.
	20% of 2 million civilian employees and by the way we've got 10 million jobs open.
	By the way, the only way he could be creepier is if he said look into my eyes.
	Yeah.
	It's totally possible to do it if you have somebody that understands that having worked
	in technology for 30 years everything we had to do was to do that.
	It does seem like they've rigged this a little bit.
	Like they want to make it seem as though this guy is relevant.
	I'm sure he's a nice guy.
	I don't know if that's applause or Chris Christie's stomach hitting a mic.
	Dana, I don't know how to decrease the size of anything.
	Let's just be honest.
	That's what I'm talking to you.
	No, kids.
	Dana just starts orbiting him.
	Next year, she will likely be on the ballot in Arizona.
	That is a must-win state.
	Governor DeSantis, how are you going to win over this independent, pro-choice...
	What is with DeSantis' face in this?
	It's like he doesn't know when to smile or grin.
	in. Let's watch.
	In victory in a governor's race in the history of the state over 1.5 million votes. We were
	winning places like Miami-Dade County, Palm Beach that nobody thought was possible because
	we were leading with purpose and conviction. I reject this idea that pro-lifers are to
	blame for midterm defeats. I think there's good reasons for that. The former president,
	you know, he's missing in action tonight. He's had a lot to say about that. He should
	be here.
	Trump drank comments to try to say that pro-life protections are somehow a terrible thing.
	Actually, I think this is a good entry point if he's going to.
	He is, but I just think he's going to get beat.
	Look, guys, you can comment below.
	And again, hit the like if you're watching on Rumble or on YouTube.
	It helps with the algorithm.
	The drinking game has done its number.
	I just think he's put himself on a one-way track now.
	He has to be at war with Trump.
	Which is not the best thing to do with someone who has a double-digit lead.
	I think that'll hurt him.
	Supporting abortion all the way up until the moment of birth.
	That is infanticide and that is wrong.
	Good, good.
	Call it what it is.
	Have you eaten children, Governor Christie?
	Tell us.
	Police report says four.
	He goes, up to three months.
	They're very tender after that.
	Yeah, because I did it in New Jersey, Dana.
	Then why are all these other states losing?
	Well, because they don't have leaders in those states who are leading the fight the way it should be led.
	This guy talks like he's a successful governor.
	I'm the governor of the only blue state that's represented up here.
	This is where the fight is really tough for Republicans.
	That's why we don't believe you.
	And those are the states that we're going to have to try to win if we're going to win the White House back.
	And what we did is 14 times, Dana, in 8 years, I vetoed Planned Parenthood funding.
	14 times.
	No one else gets it that much.
	The Democrats just kept sending it to me and I kept saying no because I believe in life.
	But I also believe in states' rights.
	And I think we fought hard against Roe vs. Wade for decades to say that states should make these decisions.
	So we're going to have those fights in the states.
	What you need is a leader who can talk to people and make them understand that if you're pro-life, you have to be pro-life for the entire life.
	Not just the nine months in the womb.
	Oh, this is a liberal talking point.
	Public education, subsidized healthcare.
	Are you pro-life?
	This is why you don't trust him.
	Right away he's using a liberal bumper sticker.
	I'm pro-life after they're born, which means taxpayer subsidized education, taxpayer subsidized healthcare, taxpayer subsidized daycare.
	That's what they do.
	Are you pro-life?
	Well then you have to pay for everything ever!
	If you got elected in New Jersey, Connecticut, New York, you're not a friggin' Republican.
	70% of independents and 51% of Latinos because I told them the truth from my heart.
	Thank you.
	Vice President Pence.
	By the way, Alex Jones coming up as a recap after this, and this lady is attractive.
	I'm not going to lie.
	Absolutely.
	With that weird reverse mole.
	Oh, what the?
	It's a nicotine patch.
	The hell is that?
	I've been doing everything all night.
	You didn't see it?
	I promise you that we're going to continue to build bridges to every community in this country.
	And I'm incredibly proud of that tax cut and tax reform bill.
	I worked on Capitol Hill to help get that bill passed into law.
	The largest tax cut in American history.
	We saw, literally, the lowest unemployment ever recorded for Hispanic Americans.
	The lowest unemployment ever recorded for African Americans.
	50-year low for women.
	He means wrong.
	These talking points are correct when he's discussing the successes.
	But then he wants to distance himself from Trump when it's convenient.
	That's why no one trusts you.
	You're right!
	It's record low unemployment for Latinos.
	Record low unemployment for African Americans.
	But who did it?
	Who did it?
	Who's at the top?
	Let me hear you say, we turned our back on Trump.
	Yes.
	Ah, exactly.
	So help me God.
	If you lead by example, it's the best way to get the job done.
	If you look at my office in the Senate, my Chief of Staff is the only Hispanic female Chief of Staff in the Senate.
	I don't want to hear about that anymore.
	I don't care.
	I'm tired.
	Seriously, I'm fucking done with it.
	Thank you!
	First this, that, Jesus H. Christ.
	Alright, I mean, uh, uh, uh, To finish my conversation with Nicky,
	I should have listened.
	He had a little name.
	That needs to get done.
	Nicky offered a 10% discount.
	Every time I look at Gerald, I see God staring at me.
	He's talking about someone who has never seen a federal dollar sheet.
	We're gonna get a portrait of Nick as David and Gerald.
	And it's more like, as the UN ambassador.
	You literally put $50,000 on currencies at a $15 million subsidized location.
	Bring it.
	Next.
	You got bad information.
	First of all, I fought the gas tax in South Carolina multiple times against the establishment.
	Just go to YouTube.
	Do you want to know what that 10 cent was?
	What if he just said bring it and he just went F-C-O-T-T, man.
	Here I am.
	Here I am.
	The Tim Scott man.
	Oh she's mad.
	Bitch, get off my file! You don't know me and you don't know my style!
	She's like, what's happening?
	Here I am, here I am, the Tim Scott man!
	Oh, she's mad! Big mad!
	I love diversity.
	Did you send them back?
	It's in the press.
	Did you send them back?
	It's the state department.
	Did you send them back?
	World star!
	You are scrapping.
	You are scrapping.
	I'm scraping.
	He's scrapping.
	He is scrapping and you're not fighting back.
	You meant to say scraping.
	Just ask her how much her outfit costs.
	We're going to take a commercial break while I show you the overvalued $18 million Mar-a-Lago estate.
	By the way, that was a story that came out where the judge said that Donald Trump overvaluated his assets.
	Republican debate live from the Reagan presidential library in just a few moments.
	We're going to take a commercial break while I show you the overvalued $18 million Mar-a-Lago
	estate. By the way, that was a story that came out where the judge said that Donald Trump
	overvaluated his assets. $18 million dollars, the Mar-a-Lago estate. Can someone bring up
	the adjacent properties that are also worth, that are worth $18 million dollars?
	$18 million dollars. And they're less than an acre.
	Mar-a-Lago is 20 acres.
	In case you didn't understand that the justice system is rigged, it's not white, black, it's not rich, poor, it really is a system rigged against your ideas.
	You have the wrong ideas, you are guilty of wrong think, and you can have a judge rule against you.
	The idea that Mar-a-Lago, 20 acres, right on the waterfront there in Florida, is worth less than 18 million dollars that is a political hit job the likes of which and this is the thing did you just dismiss it it's so stupid did you see the picture of the judge she had blue hair and a guy oh the guy looked it looked like david brennan with a gray you could tell this guy was a pot smoking scumbag fucking left-wing jerk off
	You can see the hate in his face for Trump.
	5pm on my club every day.
	More of that.
	Honestly, I stole that from Meet the Press.
	No, I like it.
	I do.
	I thought you were channeling Chuck Todd.
	You can see the hate in his face for Trump.
	There's no justice for him.
	And by the way, I said this earlier, I'm not in the bag for anybody.
	Like, I do support Donald Trump because I think he's the best candidate for the job.
	I think he will do the best job in the office, and it gives us four years plus eight years, which is twelve, which is greater than eight if somebody gets elected right now as a Republican, because I don't know who else is out there eight years from now to run, right?
	So that's the math that I'm doing right now.
	I didn't say don't go after Ron DeSantis because Trump supporters are going to now go after Ron DeSantis, or sorry, don't go after Trump, Ron DeSantis, because the supporters of Trump are going to go after you.
	It's because Donald Trump will come knocking.
	You're not ready for him.
	I'm sorry.
	You're just not ready.
	I am the one who knocks!
	He's, he's like, it's like professional wrestling here.
	Let's do it.
	Look, look, Gerald, knock, knock.
	You suck.
	You're a pussy.
	You're a big pussy.
	A big, sloppy, wet Arby's pussy.
	But I'm a governor.
	You can't tell me that.
	Well, I guess you're governor of Arby's.
	Tastes like throw-up.
	Tastes like throw-up.
	That's what they call them.
	Look, Nick, I would never say this.
	I would never say other people tell me that's governor throw-up because it's an Arby's sloppy pussy.
	No, but he would say something like that, and then Ron DeSantis is like, say this guy, and I'm like, yeah, this guy, he's hilarious.
	Just point with your thumb one more time, you'll get your point across there.
	You're right, though.
	There's only one authentic person in this race, and he's not on stage.
	That's authenticity.
	None of them have it.
	I thought you were saying that because Jesse Watters was on the screen.
	So here's the thing too, Vivek, I'm not pro-Vivek, I was pro-Vivek pushing the rest of them to be more authentic in his acting.
	Addressing issues that they were trying to dodge.
	And this entire debate tonight seems like him trying to make friends with everybody else on that stage.
	It's never going to happen.
	By the way, you can comment, how much do you want to bet that Chris Christie's taking monster shit right now?
	I guarantee you he's not on that stage.
	When they come back, he's going to have a four-foot piece of toilet paper stuck to his shoe.
	All sweaty.
	For some comparison on Mar-a-Lago, so 449 Australian Avenue, Palm Beach, Florida, $18.5 million.
	Here's what you get.
	Four bedrooms, four and a half baths, and 3,500 square feet.
	Not exactly 20 acres.
	That's the slums of Mar-a-Lago, we call it.
	That's 18 and a half million dollars.
	It's Section 8 Lago.
	And by the way, the New York Post, which is sometimes right, lots of times wrong, and usually wrong, they actually said, everybody around says that's at least a 300 million dollar property, so it's not 18 million dollars.
	Even those guys are saying it.
	Come on, everybody knows this is a lie.
	Patrick, but David actually put in an offer for it.
	He said, look, if it's $18 million, I'll buy 10 right now.
	Okay.
	He said, look, look, Mar-a-Lago.
	Okay.
	Let me put it to you that way.
	Right.
	Okay.
	Let's say someone's selling that.
	Okay.
	For $18 million.
	Right.
	Now I have a problem I got to solve.
	I gotta say, okay, look, I want that.
	I'd be 99, you'd be 1%.
	Alright, let's go back to the debate.
	That's a pretty good Patrick, but David... We have to go back to... Well, we'll check back with Finnegan a little bit afterward, but... I want to hear Stuart Varney try to pronounce her name again.
	Which one of you, on stage tonight, should be voted off the island?
	Burgum raises his hand.
	That's me.
	He puts out his own torch.
	He goes, is it real?
	I got an audition for Survivor Totem.
	Oh no, not me.
	I'll decline to do that with all due respect.
	I mean, we're here, like, we're happy to debate, but I think that that's disrespectful to my
	fellow competitors.
	Nobody wants to participate.
	Mike Pence hasn't said a word.
	That's the future of the country.
	I want to be clear about one thing.
	Here he comes.
	We have to add a drinking rule for when Vivek points with his index finger.
	Oh my god, you'll blow your liver out in ten minutes.
	What is your mathematical path, Governor DeSantis?
	In order to try to beat President Trump, who has a commanding and enduring lead.
	I have to take out all these guys.
	Polls don't elect presidents.
	Voters elect presidents.
	And we're going to take the case to the people in these early states.
	We're going to do it in a state-by-state direction.
	And why?
	Because as Reagan said... You know about that.
	You were dancing on one recently, right?
	Hey, that's not fair.
	We're fighting a lull again on the 2024 election.
	Republicans have lost three straight elections in a row.
	We were supposed to have a red wave with inflation at 9%.
	It crashed and burned.
	Not in Florida, it didn't.
	We delivered it in Florida.
	And so we've got to choose right.
	We've got to win and we need somebody that's going to be able to serve two terms.
	So in January of 2023, they'll be able to dress the nation.
	We turn the economy around.
	We secured the border and we fended off the threat from communist China.
	As your president, I will get that job done.
	And you can thank the Cubans!
	Governor Christie, I believe I did see you write something on the card.
	Who was it?
	That was my dinner.
	I believe, excuse me, Governor Christie, I believe I did see you write something on the
	card.
	Who was it?
	It was my dinner.
	I wrote second lunch.
	I think I've been the only one on this stage who's been clear about this.
	Look at this guy doodling a Big Mac.
	And the reason I voted him off the island... Because he has too big of a lead.
	Can't beat him.
	I voted her off the island, there's not enough meat on the bones.
	I need her last.
	If I were Luke, I'd suck in the Andes.
	to come here to express their views honestly, candidly, and directly, and to take your questions honestly.
	I have respect for every man and woman on this stage.
	What's happening?
	Exactly.
	I know.
	Thank you.
	This guy's a liberal, let's be honest.
	He is!
	I still got time, dude, so chill out.
	Well, depending on your lifespan.
	I need to say, dude, this guy has not only divided our party, he's divided families.
	You don't call me dude, dude.
	You're not damn right calling me dude.
	He's divided friends all over this country.
	How dare you?
	I've spoken to people, and I know everyone else has, Who have sat at Thanksgiving dinner saying, will you get your hands off the turkey you fat buffalo?
	We're hungry too!
	more with every topic of the island and he's going to be checking the turkey was
	dry and a different view on this I think Trump was an excellent president.
	But the America First Agenda does not belong to one man.
	It does not belong to Donald Trump.
	It doesn't belong to me.
	It belongs to you.
	The people of this country.
	And the question is who's going to unite this country and take the America First Agenda to the next level?
	When we rallied behind the cry to make America great again, we did not just hunger for a single man.
	We hungered for the unapologetic pursuit of excellence.
	So yes, I will respect Donald Trump and his legacy because it's the right thing to do.
	To take the America First agenda to the next level, and that will take a different generation to do it.
	Here we go!
	Westport and Jeff!
	That's it?
	Wait, hold on.
	Is that it?
	I think that's it.
	That's it.
	10 o'clock.
	Have a great evening!
	Thank you for joining us.
	Have a great evening!
	If evening's not four syllables... Go ahead, Nick.
	You can use the restroom.
	Before we bring on Alex Jones... I know, he's been a trooper, absolutely.
	5pm Eastern every day.
	Before we go to Alex Jones, I know we're going to have him on here, and then we're going to go to your...
	Chats.
	I believe that we do have Finnegan.
	Hopefully he finally got to the right place.
	One moment, folks.
	Folks, let me go now to our on-the-ground correspondent, Thomas Finnegan.
	Hi, Steven.
	You're not at the GOP debate.
	That's not where you are.
	I'm pretty sure I am.
	No, you're at a bait-and-tackle shop.
	That's what I'm seeing right behind you.
	You told me to get to the bait.
	This was the closest one.
	I told you to get to the GOP debate.
	You were at goop.
	Now you're at a bait-and-tackle shop.
	What is happening?
	I can't.
	They make me feel all oogie.
	Are you talking about worms?
	Just go.
	Have a good night.
	All right, we have Kellyanne Conway.
	I guess we're doing, uh, this kind of still has something in there, so we might need to empty it out.
	Ugh, this debate.
	Yeah, absolutely.
	Right now, they're all walking into the spin room to give their triumphant speeches to act like whatever happened on the stage didn't actually happen, so they can clip it and put it on social media.
	But this, this debate had some clear winners and losers.
	I agree, Bergrum got a little bit more time than I thought he would.
	Bergum?
	Bergum?
	Bergrum?
	Drinking Game got the best of you.
	You're a hooker?
	I just thought I was doing well with you.
	Where's my drink?
	That's always an excuse.
	Shut up!
	It's okay.
	Fox News screwed me too.
	Burgum got a little bit more time than I thought.
	Tim Scott got more time than I thought.
	And everybody spoke over Vivek.
	Don't you hate Nikki Haley?
	I don't really like her, but I don't dislike her.
	I think she's reasonable in a lot of ways.
	People can name that movie line.
	I hated her answer on Mexico.
	At least the first part.
	Because Ginger Snap's telling me that the rest of her answer was actually pretty decent.
	And I'm like, well, I couldn't hear it after I was seeing red for the first part of the answer where she was lying through her teeth.
	But honestly, this was a make or break for some of these guys.
	I think Pence didn't resonate with anybody other than the 85-plus audience.
	Pence is the worst.
	It's not even close.
	Yeah, he was absolutely the worst.
	Bergham did much better than him.
	Christie was pretty bad.
	I will say this, if I were to pick a standout tonight, and you guys can comment below, let's take a poll, we'll go to your chat when we go to the Mug Club exclusive portion.
	Tim Scott.
	I think Tim Scott, I'm not saying that he did outstandingly well, but I think for him, he did what he needed to do to sort of To warrant being on the shows.
	I don't think he'll survive.
	I think he kind of had a moment here today where I think he'll probably be thrust in front of the pack a little bit.
	I think he had a little bit more passion.
	I think he got in there.
	I think he allowed people to see who he was a little bit.
	And this right there, this picture on Fox News, if you can bring it up there Toolman, that's why people don't trust politicians.
	Chris Christie and Ron DeSantis shaking hands and laughing.
	Wait a second.
	We know that Chris Christie is a leftist.
	We know that he's a liberal sympathizer and Ron DeSantis seems to be good buddies with him.
	People don't want someone who's miscongeniality.
	They want someone who is going to fight for them.
	That's the takeaway.
	Yeah, every single time.
	And I think DeSantis had some very good moments.
	Whereas last time, I didn't really think he had any good moments at all.
	I thought his debate was terrible.
	He came off incredibly stale.
	I think there were some moments that he actually looked bad again.
	He's still got to clean that up.
	But he had much more positive moments than he did last time.
	But we do have Mr. Alex Jones on the line to give us his thoughts whenever you are ready.
	Okay.
	Well, first off again, it's the promo code CrowderDebateNight.
	That gives you $10 off, ladderwithcrowder.com slash MugClub.
	And when you join MugClub, that means that you get Alex Jones' completely unfiltered Friday show every single week.
	It is scary to think about.
	I love it.
	What's funny is that it's not really that scary when you tune in and watch it.
	Oh, yeah.
	It's completely reasonable.
	Do it with a friend.
	Don't allow the media to tell you who Alex Jones is.
	Make up your own mind.
	Let Alex Jones tell you.
	Hungry, Nick?
	I thought Chris Christie was taking a minute with Hannity.
	I was looking at it, I was getting hungry.
	Alright, and then I guess we're going to do this and then we're going to go to Mug Club.
	Is there anything else that I forgot as far as plugs?
	Anything?
	No, no, no, no.
	I think we did that.
	Do we, uh, well actually, we had another sponsor potentially.
	Do we want to hit Mr. Walther?
	Yeah, you know what?
	Before we bring on Alex Jones, let's do one more.
	You know, we haven't mentioned them in a long time.
	The studios here are exclusively protected by Walther.
	And by the way, I've told you this before in the past.
	Look, they're attractive, they're smooth.
	They're merchants of death.
	They basically sell themselves.
	Walther Firearms.
	Just try the Walther, and you will buy it.
	Try it, you will buy it.
	They have the balls to sponsor this show.
	Compare it to anything else out there, whether it's Glock, whether it's Sig, whether it's... Just take your pick.
	Everyone who tries it decides, you know what?
	I'm gonna stick with this.
	A really quick word from our sponsor, Walther, and then Alex Jones.
	I wasn't going to roll the spot.
	You want me to roll the spot?
	Hit the spot!
	That wasn't what I meant.
	I just saw a light turn on.
	Was I dark?
	Yeah, I was trying to put the spotlight on Walther over Nick's shoulder there.
	Where?
	Over Nick's left shoulder.
	How about you find the spot?
	We're crying out loud.
	It's like putting salt in a freshwater fish tank.
	Alright.
	Okay.
	Alright.
	Alright.
	Shit.
	Alright.
	Horror movies just don't work when you've got a welfare.
	That was a quick cut.
	We're not very smooth tonight.
	What was the Walther pistol that we fired at the range?
	Well, the PDP.
	No, no, no.
	The one I have is a special edition, but the PDP is available to everyone.
	Look, just Google Walther PDP review.
	They don't have the money for marketing or giant military contracts, and they have the balls to sponsor this show.
	You won't find a negative review.
	Everyone who fires it says, oh my god, this is the best gun that I've ever shot in my life.
	Just get something to defend your household, you and yours, but obviously you know who I line up with.
	Walter is incredible, unbelievable, and you can't do any better.
	Alright, do we have a stinger?
	Because we have him here, the man, the OG, to break down the debate, Alex Jones.
	Why are we using that old Bill Hicks picture of Alex Jones?
	Alright, Mr. Jones, can you hear me and see me, sir?
	I can.
	You know, I've been watching you guys all night.
	Oh, one second.
	Hold on a second.
	I can't hear you because we have to put you over to the speakers.
	Oh, that's right.
	I can hear him.
	Oh, you can hear him?
	Alright, sorry.
	Gerald is the only one who can hear you because he has the headphones on.
	I have the headphones on now.
	Alright, go ahead, Alex.
	I was going to say, I thought that I looked sinister and non-trustworthy with my Lex Luthor haircut, but let me tell you, you look like the ultimate Mexican drug lord now with that special beard.
	What you talking about, boy?
	I'm actually intimidated by it.
	I'm actually very, yeah, or like some southern kingpin or something, yeah.
	If you went to Mexico, the women would all be tearing their clothes off and throwing themselves at you, so you're now the Mexican drug lord look.
	That looks good, Steven.
	Guapo!
	I don't even know why I did it.
	Nick loves it, so he just tells me to do it, so I do it every now and then.
	Just, you know, I was just trying to try something new.
	Just like one time I read that, you know, drinking a glass of wine a day is good for your heart, so I started smoking wine-dipped cigars.
	It didn't work.
	Of course, people can join up Mug Club, they can listen to your show on MadMaxWorld.tv, but every Friday, completely unfiltered, they get your show on Mug Club.
	Alex, what were your thoughts on the debate tonight?
	Who was a standout?
	What was your takeaway, brother?
	Well, let me just say this.
	I've been covering debates for a long time, doing the live coverage like you do, but I've been watching since it started when I was driving in the car up here to the studio.
	I was also listening to it, and I really think all the points you made were dead on, and I'd like to make a few comments on the points you guys made, but I basically agree with your analysis.
	But let's go somewhere that, unless I tuned out for like five minutes when I was taking a piss or whatever and missed some of it, Five minutes, Alex.
	That's a look.
	Alex, with a prostate the size of a volleyball?
	It's what they say, when you have a very small penis, you have a small bladder.
	Or a large bladder.
	When you have a large, small bladder, you have a large penis.
	So I've got a very small penis and a very large bladder.
	No, but I was actually taking a dump.
	The point is, I took a five-minute break.
	No, no, I mean, I'm serious.
	Actually, I took a phone call and some other stuff.
	My point is, is that I listened to almost all of it and watched almost all of it.
	And my big takeaway is this.
	We saw them in the last Democrat primary with Hillary, you know, back in the last real election when Trump won in 2016, totally freeze Bernie Sanders out.
	And I don't like Bernie Sanders.
	But clearly he was winning in a bunch of states and the Democrats said, we don't care.
	We have superdelegates that are going to vote in California and other states like New Hampshire for Hillary.
	So they stole that from him.
	So even though I hate him, not as much as Hillary, it was wrong to see that done.
	And so now they've changed the rules even more.
	Where RFK Jr.
	has been completely blocked out of it.
	They're not even having Democrat debates.
	Right.
	And how did we get to this point?
	So we're having Republican debates and Trump overshadows them.
	He gets like 55, 60 percent of the field.
	All the rest get like 40, 45 percent.
	And so they're kind of the Keebler elves.
	They're the little Lilliputians.
	Especially since they indicted Trump.
	It's turned him into a folk hero.
	Trump's not perfect, but people see through this.
	And so it's throwing massive support behind Trump.
	That's why scientific establishment polls that are already, quote, skewed because they sample more Democrats, show Trump 10, 15, 20 points, depending on the demographic, in Washington Post, ABC polls, against Biden. So their attempt to destroy Trump has made
	him the juggernaut, made him the colossus, and everybody else are little fusions. But I do think it's
	healthy to have other people in the field, to have a wide field to bring in new ideas. That's
	what this is all about. But because Tulsi Gabbard scared the Democrats two and a half years ago in
	the last general election and other things, they've frozen them all out. So no one's talking about no
	Democrat party debates. And they've now changed the rules even more, where Biden is basically
	running unopposed. And that means when he steps down, whoever they replace it with. Now,
	Roger Stone.
	Hey, Alex, can I ask you something? Just for, because you've been covering this for a long
	time. Like I've said, you're the OG. But some people out there, you know,
	we have a lot of younger viewers, meaning in their early 20s.
	They may not know about superdelegates, and I've talked about this before.
	That is, I mean, for the Democrat Party, right, quote-unquote, it is one of the least democratic components.
	Can you explain, and then continue with your point, but explain to people who may not be familiar with the idea of superdelegates, because that's a huge part of the Democrat Party.
	Well, that's right.
	The oldest party in America is the Democrats.
	And there was one other party, the Whigs, that, you know, went away.
	And it wasn't until Abraham Lincoln came along with his famous debates, running for president, the Republican Party was created.
	And it was an abolitionist, anti-slavery party.
	So in the upside-down world, people think the Democrats are against slavery, Republicans are for it.
	It just shows what, you know, total quackery all this is.
	And so the Democrats, in their rules going back 200 years plus, Have always had the capacity to rig elections.
	They've never done it to this extent.
	But then when Bernie Sanders was winning in a whole bunch of states, including California, we even interviewed a couple of superdelegates when we were in New Hampshire.
	My reporter is Richard Reeves.
	It's an incredible clip, tens of millions of views at the time.
	And he just walks up and talks to me.
	Oh, I hear you're a superdelegate.
	You were just talking to CNN.
	He goes, yeah.
	You know, Bernie's going to get the majority of votes here in California and other states, and I'm a delegate in California.
	It doesn't matter because we're going to give the votes to Hillary.
	And then indeed, that's what they did.
	So it didn't matter.
	Once the Democrats voted, the party delegates were supposed to honor the votes of the general election in the primary.
	But that was completely and totally ignored.
	Now they've changed the rules, and RFK Jr.
	lays all out these speeches he's given, but I've gone and looked at it.
	It's true.
	Where if he campaigns in Iowa, New Hampshire, or a bunch of other key first battleground states, then he's not eligible to be on the ballot.
	And so the Democratic Party at the DNC, talk about dictatorial, they call the electoral college bad.
	Dictatorial is they are allowed to change the rules.
	And look, I like Trump, I like the fact he's taking over the Republican Party compared to Chris Christie and people, but he's certainly not perfect.
	The Republicans are now announcing, and it's gotten almost no coverage, that they Trump's not just not being part of these debates, which I think he, you know, wisely hasn't been.
	He's weighing the lead.
	That's okay, in my view.
	But, now Trump has the Republican Party set, I saw this in the news last week in like, red state, to go and do the same thing Democrats do, and have the RNC vote to pull the same shenanigan, and basically bypass primaries.
	So this is very dangerous de-evolution Uh, into a two-party and then one-party state, and Senator Josh Hawley has warned of this, a lot of others have.
	Right.
	The Democrat deep state, and now the Republicans are copying it, because, you know, Trump will come, Trump will go, Trump will win, he'll lose, he'll go to prison, he won't.
	But everything's moving towards total and complete centralization, and it's very, very dangerous.
	I mean, here's an example.
	Okay, and then Gerald has a question for you, but yes, please go.
	You know about Canada, because you are a dual citizen, if I remember correctly.
	Unfortunately, yes.
	Most Canadians... It's a beautiful country.
	No, no, no.
	I've rejected my Canadian citizenship entirely, but yes.
	Well, it's not a schmear.
	I mean, basically, you know, Austin's more liberal than Canada, so let's not bash it.
	I agree with Tucker Carlson.
	We should actually invade Canada and free it and make you the president with that mustache, but seriously.
	Done.
	If you look at the Charter of Canada, Uh, King Charles is actually in control of it.
	This isn't some weird right-wing, you know, fake thing.
	This is real.
	No.
	The King of England, anytime he wants, or his Governor General, So, it's the same kind of crap.
	We can look at that and say, well that's dictatorial, that's tyrannical.
	Well, just like the King of England, or the Queen of England can have a Governor General basically remove the government when they want and install puppets, that's what the Democrat Party's done.
	And that's what the Republicans are now doing.
	And so this is a very, very dangerous situation we're in.
	OK, so I understand what you were saying with Bernie.
	Who are the Republicans in the bag for this time around?
	Are you saying that Donald Trump is the person that they're basically saying, hey, just bypass the primaries?
	Or are they going for somebody else that was on the panel tonight of candidates that were debating?
	There are different factions, Gerald.
	You're as smart as I am, or smarter.
	And early on, they wanted DeSantis.
	DeSantis was very popular, and he was ahead of Trump.
	As soon as they indicted Trump, he went from neck and neck with DeSantis, where Trump was getting 30%, DeSantis was getting 30% in polls, and all the other candidates were getting the other 37%.
	And as soon as they indicted him, he went up 10 points.
	And each indictment, he goes up 5-10 points, where he's now 55-60 points ahead of them in the entire field.
	He's 10-20 points in skewed polls that oversample Democrats.
	And so, it's just like Hillary.
	The memos have come out, the emails have come out.
	She told Fox, CNN, all of them, to the CFR, she said, I believe Trump's the easiest to beat in the general election.
	I want you to give him all the coverage and not the other people.
	And then it backfired on her.
	Or you can say there's some sick thing behind the scenes.
	And by the way, just starting today, she's been saying, hey, by the way, Putin's gonna meddle in the election again, right?
	So that's why, again, keep in mind YouTube said you're allowed to actually question election integrity now because they're bringing out the same old tired trope Hillary Clinton said, I believe that Putin's going to meddle in the next election.
	Because remember, the election wasn't fair and legitimate.
	That was a 2016 talking point from Hillary Clinton.
	So she's done an about face.
	Well, that's right.
	It's deja vu.
	It's the same thing where Biden says in a bunch of speeches, when I win the election, immediately surge the border.
	We're going to open it up for everybody.
	And then now in New York and in Chicago and San Francisco, people are going, we got hundreds of thousands of people sleeping on the street.
	Crime has exploded.
	We don't have money to pay for this.
	And suddenly they're like, oh, no.
	You know, the New York governor says, don't come here, we don't want you.
	When a year ago, she was saying, come here, we want you.
	So they think we have amnesia.
	And Stephen, that's a great parallel that you just brought up of how they think that we don't have memories.
	And I'm sorry, most of the public does not have memories.
	They do for baseball or football.
	But they don't when it comes to this bait-and-switch they do over and over again, and that's really the problem.
	I think Nick had a question for you.
	Alex, what's the alternative?
	I know you say it's dangerous if the Republicans stop pulling the same shenanigans as the Democrats are doing as far as superdelegates.
	What's the alternative?
	To watch them steal another election?
	If one team's not playing by the rules, don't you have to not play to have a chance to win?
	I think he's talking about the Republicans trying to rig the primaries more so.
	Still, I think the broader point is still something to answer, right?
	Yeah.
	No, but I think what he's saying is true.
	I think I was going to make that point.
	This climate of open fraud...
	This climate of all these dead people voting, this climate of hundreds of millions of dollars.
	What was the last number?
	It was something just astronomical that Zuckerberg spent getting all the names of dead people and people that have moved out of districts to do that.
	So yeah, when you're dealing with a tyranny, that's what Trump's doing.
	Right.
	When you're dealing with a tyranny, you tend to, like we were fighting the Soviet Union, we set up a system to counter them, but we lost a lot of freedom.
	So you're actually right that my instinct is I don't want to lose.
	When I'm getting my ass kicked, I'll start cheating.
	Um, the thing is, conservatives and Christians and populists, we don't even know how to do it.
	Like, I've even sat there and, like, thought, as a war game, not that I'm gonna do it, but I've thought about it, well, if, you know, we start going out and getting violent with it, is that gonna work?
	And then I think through it, no, that's not gonna work.
	Okay, well, do I, like, You know, do we get dead people to vote?
	Well, we don't have, you know, billionaires spending 400 million dollars here or whatever for us to do that, to get dead people's names.
	We just don't have it built into our DNA.
	And so what they can't beat, here's a perfect example.
	They have these quote scientific polls by ABC, NBC, Mason, Dixon, all of them, Washington Post, where they put in 10 to 15 percent more Democrats, and they just say, we believe there's more Democrats baked into it.
	And then they know key demographics, key phone numbers they call, key people that have already been polled before.
	They know by who they're reaching out to what they're going to get.
	They got 20 points for 35 and under, 15 points that Trump's up.
	So Trump's 20 points ahead and under 35.
	He's 15 points ahead of a bunch of other demographics, and 10% overall in that poll.
	And the other skewed polls they call scientific show that.
	So that means he's 30 points ahead.
	And so it's the same thing with With a massive election.
	They've only got so many dead people.
	If you watch Texas two years ago, or four years ago, or Florida, it's that same graph where Trump goes up, Republicans go up, it's an organic curve.
	And then as soon as the polls close, boom, they pop up above.
	Well, they tried that in Texas and Florida and a bunch of other states they wanted to take.
	They're like, oh, they're gonna go blue, but they ran out of dead people and people that have moved out of the district that didn't know, hey, you may live in another state for 10 years, you're still voting in Kentucky.
	And so you see them run out of bullets and the Democrats just stop.
	And so if we have a giant landslide, Just like if we have a giant landslide in a poll, they can't fix it because they're just putting fake data in to buffer it.
	But if you go above 10, 20, 30 points with a massive landslide, you can't hide that.
	That's a very important point, Alex, because the reason I want to focus on this is because you have some people out there, and I see this a lot, by the way, in the Republican groundswell, the conservative groundswell, saying, why vote anyway?
	It's rigged.
	They're going to find the votes.
	There is a way for this to be so insurmountable, and we are within that margin.
	We're not within the margin of victory.
	Again, the WaPo ABC poll has Donald Trump ahead 10 points.
	They had Biden ahead, I believe it was 17.
	We had those sources earlier.
	That's a very, very left-leaning total spread.
	A 27 point total spread.
	The point here isn't that you need a margin of victory for swing states.
	It's we can have a margin of victory so large that they can't overcome that with these shenanigans.
	And I think it's important for you to say what you're saying because that's galvanizing as opposed to defeating.
	Because, you know, there are a lot of people out there on the airwaves who tell people, who deliver a message that makes it sound like, well, you might as well not go out and vote.
	All hope is lost.
	Right.
	And what you're saying is correct.
	And I want you to continue, Alex.
	Let me use a fight analogy.
	Let's say you weigh 200 pounds, you're pretty tough, you've been in a few fights, you're not looking for trouble, and you're 30 years old and you got your 8-year-old daughter playing at the park.
	And some gang member walks over while you're at your car making a call and punches your 8-year-old daughter in the face and knocks her teeth out.
	I don't care if the guy weighs 100 pounds more than you is an ex-convict who's killed people.
	You're going to beat his ass.
	And what I'm saying politically is they may outweigh us by 100 pounds.
	They just knocked our kids' teeth out.
	We've got to vote, we've got to rally, we've got to be aggressive, we've got to be out there, and we've got to fly Republican Americana flags everywhere where if they steal it again, it's even more obvious.
	Because if you give up and say, oh, it doesn't count, you're screwed.
	The top scientists, top, top people that study this, like Professor Epstein, not Jeffrey Epstein, and others have done the numbers.
	And they've only got, with dead people and people who have moved out of district, maybe 15 points they can swing.
	We give Trump or any other Republican 15, 20 points over the top, they cannot beat that, and that's why they're crap with their pants.
	They're not doing it with machines, that's all the red herring.
	They're doing it with dead people and mail-in ballots and people voting in other people's names that are outside the district.
	That's how they're stealing the election.
	Absolutely.
	And Dr. Robert Epstein, we actually interviewed him.
	We're going to be able to air that probably within the next week or so.
	I know you've been talking to him.
	He's somebody who's on the forefront of that with Google swaying the elections, essentially.
	And the numbers are staggering.
	And you're right.
	The only way that we can combat this right now is shine a light on Google and make sure that they can't do the things they were doing.
	They've done that.
	And they did it in the 2020 runoff, the Senate runoff election they had in Georgia.
	And Congress is starting to get on their ass.
	Look, Congress did nothing.
	I was at congressional hearings, Gerald, five years ago, where Sundar Pichai, the head of Google, was still lying to them that Google tracks phones.
	It's on the damn app.
	It's the basis of it, okay?
	And so they knew nothing.
	They were like Helen Keller, deaf, dumb, and blind, five years ago.
	They now know the CIA is involved.
	Oh, there's think tanks.
	Oh, there's censoring.
	So their education curve is going straight up.
	So we have to play catch-up, folks.
	But here's the deal.
	We were like nowhere five, ten years ago.
	We're, we are, our curve's going like this, their curve's going like that, and that's, sorry to interrupt you, I'll go back to you, but that's why Clapper and all of them came out and said, Trump's gonna kill us, he's gonna arrest us this week, he's gonna win, we're all screwed.
	They, they're the ones trying to arrest us!
	My reporter, my, my, my, my anchor goes to jail on the 24th for months for peacefully being at the Capitol.
	So, so, they're hitting the panic button, We've made them take the mask off, and so it looks scary as hell.
	Believe me, we're all on the crosshairs.
	But folks, we're winning.
	I'm not going to lie to listeners.
	We are starting to beat the shit out of these people.
	I love it.
	Look, Alex, hang out with us for just a couple of minutes.
	Hang out with us for just a couple of minutes really quickly.
	I'll stay the whole time!
	I've been sitting here for three hours!
	You're a little hungry.
	I love you, man.
	I love you.
	I want to hear what you have to think about the debate.
	Give me one more minute.
	Nick, you're a little hungry.
	I saw that earlier.
	I think we actually had some of that pudding maybe out at the main table.
	Did we have that?
	Oh yeah, that's right.
	Oh, do we?
	Yeah, we did.
	What are you doing, man?
	Oh!
	Oh, I'm trying the new pudding from My Patriot Supply.
	I gotta admit, it's okay.
	It's not great, you know?
	Dude, you're not supposed to do it like that.
	You gotta put water in it, man.
	How much have you eaten?
	Um... All of them.
	Oh my gosh.
	Here, try that.
	That's better.
	Come on.
	Instructions.
	Oh, that's much better.
	Of course it's much better, man.
	You know you're going to have to buy some to replace that, right?
	Right.
	I'll just go to PrepperCrowder.com and get a three month supply.
	Perfect.
	You're probably going to have to do that twice.
	Yakuza, what in the world are you doing down here?
	Are you serious right now?
	Want some pancakes?
	No, I'm fine.
	Thank you.
	Where's the gag reflex when you need it?
	Alright, so prepwithcrowder.com you get a 25% off a 3 month membership
	There we go.
	Perfect.
	No, 3-month supply.
	3-month supply, not membership.
	And by the way, their stuff is great.
	They have actually sent us more oatmeal and pudding.
	Their pudding is legitimately better than the Jell-O.
	Just add water.
	Yeah, you need to add water.
	Some of those powdered items.
	Prepwithcrowder.com.
	Wait, let me say something about this, because they've been my sponsor for 15 years.
	No, no, I'm serious.
	I go out and I get the best companies to be our sponsors, and this stuff is better than what's sold in grocery stores for a third of the price.
	They started out 16 years ago.
	They've been the biggest company for 10 years because of their quality, because of the huge variety they've got.
	If you're getting storable food, your sponsor is the way to go, folks.
	You're insane in this climate, in this world, if you don't go there and use that promo code right now.
	Well, thank you very much.
	This man's a pro.
	Hey, can you bring up the URL for people to sign up for Mug Club through Alex Jones?
	Is it jonescrowder.com?
	Yeah, I got it.
	Jonescrowder.com.
	Jonescrowder.com.
	Hey, Alex, I got to interrupt everybody here.
	This is pretty interesting news unrelated to tonight.
	We'll get to the wrap up of the debate really quickly, but bring that up.
	So apparently the Arizona State Treasurer has just gotten notice that she is serving as the acting governor because I guess something has happened with Katie Hobbs where she is no longer the governor of Arizona.
	What?
	Really?
	I said, is this real?
	Do we know why?
	They don't know why, but it's a Republican that's now in office.
	Can Mission Control get us the reason why?
	I'm assuming election shenanigans, but that would probably be too good to be true.
	It says the reason is unknown for this, but we will see.
	This is seismic.
	Read it to us.
	There's no reason given here, right?
	Read it like a woman!
	I'll read it like one.
	So this is the Arizona Treasurer, Kimberly Yee, statement on serving as acting governor.
	And to everything they've said that this is real, if this is like some kind of fake, sorry, but I think it's real.
	It says, I have been notified that I will be serving as acting governor beginning later this evening until mid-morning tomorrow.
	Well, I'm pleased to step... Just until mid-morning tomorrow, guys?
	Yeah, just until tomorrow.
	Come on!
	Don't you have to take a potty break?
	No, she's probably... In the first frickin' paragraph!
	They do that when you go on to anesthesia for crying out loud.
	Yeah.
	Could it just be that?
	Maybe she's pissed.
	Is it a heavy flow month?
	I really don't know.
	That's what I was thinking.
	Maybe she had a stroke or something.
	Took too many shots.
	I have no idea.
	Maybe she was playing tonight's drinking game.
	But she's actually stepped down at least for the time being.
	Or maybe there's a transfer of power.
	I don't understand.
	Something to do with a fight with a hammer.
	For this to be out there publicly though, that's not typical.
	That's not typical for this to be that public.
	For a little bit, at least, they say.
	Is this real?
	That's mine.
	That's mine.
	And again, she's the one who just declared this gun emergency, which I'm really worried that they might... Again, I'm not saying Putin's perfect.
	I'm not a fan of Russia.
	But, I mean, you sit there and you hear Scott and others up there literally saying, we gotta fight the Russians over there so we don't fight them over here.
	I'm sorry, folks.
	Soros and the globalists overthrew the Ukrainian government nine years ago.
	They've been starting this fight.
	Russia started in Ukraine with Slavov the Great.
	His name was Slav.
	That's why they call them all Slavs.
	And the West started this, told us we were going to win.
	The West is losing.
	It's escalating the nuclear war.
	Now we're sending them F-16s, Abraham tanks.
	That's World War III, as Biden said.
	Blowing up Nord Stream Pipeline 2.
	And giving them, you know, all these weapons, this is insane while our country falls apart.
	So I'm with RFK Jr.
	I'm with Trump.
	Listen, the U.S.
	is running this war.
	NATO's run by the U.S., the people that run our country, that have hijacked it.
	And I just want it to stop.
	I want it to stop.
	Putin said, if you try to bring them into NATO, I'm going to invade.
	They said, oh, we're not going to do that.
	Now Stoltenberg said four days ago, head of NATO, yes, Our plan was to bring them into NATO, and we got the Russians to invade, and now that's expanded NATO, so Russia's our bitch.
	Well, yeah, they manipulated them into this, so Russia isn't trying to cut my son's penis off.
	Russia isn't trying to open my borders and flood us like they've done.
	Russia isn't devaluing my currency.
	Russia isn't doing all this crap.
	Russia isn't trying to say the Republican Party's going to be outlawed like the Democrats, so I'm sorry.
	I'd love to be a Russophobe.
	Finally.
	The Chi-Coms are up our butt.
	The Chi-Coms are funding thousands of public schools.
	The Chi-Coms control hundreds of universities.
	The Chi-Coms own four of the six Hollywood, the bottom farmland everywhere.
	The Chi-Coms are up our ass.
	And the globalists are allied with them.
	But Russia can't even run their own country.
	Russia is a mess, so that's why the globalists are doing this, because they're right.
	The Russians have not won this quickly.
	The Russians have lost hundreds of thousands of troops, but they got nuclear weapons, and they got submarines in the Gulf of Mexico aiming at Austin and Dallas, Texas, where our children live, and aiming at the East Coast and West Coast, and they've got 24 missiles per submarine Of cruise missiles that are fired from 20 miles off the shore and hit us in three minutes, Mach 10.
	Cannot be stopped.
	We need to not have nuclear war.
	Yeah, no, I agree with you, and we'll probably have you on here next week to discuss that more, because that's something that's been really convoluted.
	But before we go to Mug Club exclusive, let us know your specific thoughts tonight on the debate, who you thought the biggest winner was.
	Mike Pence is on right now with Sean Hannity.
	I've been sitting here three hours.
	Yeah!
	Yeah, well Mike Pence is right on.
	He's on with Hannity right now, right on schedule.
	We're going to keep you in the Mug Club if you want to stay around.
	We're going to keep you in the Mug Club, but if you were to say the biggest winners and losers tonight with a debate, aside from the media being the biggest loser?
	Obviously, Vivek Ramaswamy is like some AI bot that just says all the perfect things.
	I don't trust him because I don't know him, but I would like to, I'd like to, I mean, I think he, they all ganged up on him, as you said, Steven, and as your crew said, because they're scared of him and they said to go after him.
	I think Pence, like you said, is like, you pull a string, it just says things, platitudes.
	I liked a lot of what Scott said about bringing America together, but I didn't like his World War III stuff.
	Exactly.
	I thought that Noam did pretty good.
	You know, I mean, the guy that nobody knows, I didn't know who he was.
	Yeah, he's pretty smart.
	Again, none of them, it's good to cover it because it's new ideas, but because they indicted Trump, Trump's got 55-60% of the field unless he dies of a stroke next week or something.
	It really is just academic.
	I mean, who do you, I mean, I was listening, but who do you guys think is the clear winner in this?
	I don't think there was any clear winner.
	What I do think is that DeSantis, unfortunately, has put himself on a one-track now, right?
	He has to be at war with Donald Trump.
	He was the one who decided to kind of draw that... I don't want to say draw first blood because Trump has been attacking him and I think that it's warranted.
	DeSanctimonious!
	But he definitely, I think, made a mistake tonight if he doesn't want to be in the mode of DeSantis versus Trump.
	So that'll be interesting to see the fallout from that.
	Outside of that, I think that Tim Scott showed himself a little bit more.
	Like you said, I don't like his answers on Ukraine, that whole situation with the Ukraine and Russia.
	Sorry, Ukraine and Russia.
	I keep wanting to say the Ukraine-Russia, but then people say, it's not the Ukraine, it's the Ukraine.
	I get it.
	Okay, geopolitics.
	Outside of that, you know, Chris Christie was obviously very hungry.
	He makes good cookies.
	Gnome really should take advantage.
	Cookie!
	Yes, exactly.
	I think the important point here, too, to note is, look, the media is not your friend to people out there watching.
	The media right now, they are not your friend, especially if you look at Fox News.
	Oh yeah, what about that woman moderator?
	It was like she had the Communist Party or NPR up there.
	Oh, record attacks on LGBT, record white supremacists.
	No, those are made-up statistics.
	Attacks on LGBT and black people are almost non-existent.
	That's the real numbers.
	Yeah, no, exactly.
	And by the way, when they talk about these people who come from other countries, and I don't necessarily know where she... I would assume that it's somewhat Hispanic.
	Let's talk about their record.
	She's a weatherwoman in Telemundo.
	Yes, exactly.
	With LGBTQ.
	Let's talk about the record of anywhere else with LGBTQ.
	Let's talk about the record anywhere else with diversity.
	They always want to condemn America for not Living up to the perfect standard.
	It's like watching someone do a high jump and saying, ah, you missed your perfect Flosbury flop there.
	You didn't clear that bar.
	Meanwhile, they're not even trying.
	That's why they always try and point to the United States.
	That's right.
	The left never criticizes China.
	If you do, if men kiss in public, you get three years in a labor camp.
	Okay, so if you're a Muslim, you get sent to a Uighur concentration camp.
	So I'm sick of being lectured when I'm not doing anything to gay people or anybody else.
	Perfect, how we're all being called Nazis constantly.
	And a real Nazi, they're hard to find, 98 years old from the SS, who was in a unit that actually killed Jews in mass in famous massacres, is being saluted.
	And then Trudeau came out two days ago and said, oh, it's Russian propaganda.
	No, it's not Russian propaganda.
	They're so crazy.
	They had 330 whatever members, 336 members of the Canadian Parliament and not one of them during this giant speech and standing ovation.
	He fought the Russians in World War II.
	What idiot doesn't know who fought the Russians?
	I mean, it is like asinine.
	Yeah, no, you're absolutely... I thought, too, the Nazis, I thought Christopher Plummer killed off the rest of them a long time ago.
	I thought so, too.
	But we are going to continue, I guess, obviously, of course, on Mug Club.
	ladarthcreditor.com.
	If you're watching right now on Rumble, you click that button right there.
	Do it.
	And you get to continue watching on... Hey, can I say something about Rumble?
	Because I heard you say this, but I want to be clear to viewers.
	I got super excited months ago when we launched this thing together, and as soon as I got ready to do it, the next few months, you didn't even ask me to do this, Fourth hour of my show is going to go subscription on Rumble through jonesandrodder.com.
	It's going to be massive.
	The training wheels were just this weekly show, and you know, it's a great show.
	Some have been amazing, some have been okay.
	We're really enjoying doing it.
	But ladies and gentlemen, my home studio is basically set up because I hit a second wind at night.
	I'm gonna be Delusively on rumble behind the paywall because people want
	it. It'll be commercial free. I got a special guest say whatever I want
	But look at the UK Parliament, look at the EU, look at how Rumble said, hey we got letters saying take off Russell Brand.
	The fight is there.
	Rumble is what Elon Musk wishes he was, as Steven, when he got me to come over months ago, pointed out.
	So if we don't back Rumble, and if we don't back their hosts, and if we don't support their sponsors, I know there's a lot of big fish out there watching, you should advertise your furniture company, you should advertise your tech company, you should belly up to the bar, you should get on home plate, you should get up to bat, and you should get involved, because there's no other thing that actually has The wherewithal and the infrastructure and the host, all the big top hosts are at Rumble.
	People, you want us to fight.
	You want us to engage.
	You want us to stand up.
	You want us to not back down.
	Okay, we won't give up, we won't submit, we won't sell out, but we could give out.
	Everybody should go to Rumble right now.
	Everybody should support Rumble because they're doing what nobody else is doing and that's why Steven Crowder's there.
	That's why the rest of his great hosts are there.
	That's why I'm there.
	So, if you want to win, folks, get busy promoting Rumble and Steven Crowder and get busy over at Mug Club to build this infrastructure.
	God, I really appreciate that.
	That's why Alex Jones is Alex Jones.
	Unless you're a furniture company and you're Swedish, because I don't need another Ottoman that folds into a bookcase.
	Right now, click that button.
	We thank you, Rumble.
	We're going to continue with Alex Jones's wrap-up of the debate.
	YouTube, piss off.
