Time Text
Like he just walked into a hive of bees.
I don't know if they'll show him, but it's like Alex Jones got hit by a swarm of them.
Yes.
Yeah, exactly.
I hope they show him again.
I just don't know who this guy is, who they always have on.
The guy from Mr. D's, the opera singer.
Oh, yes.
Mr. French.
Thank you.
Thank you.
I think I've shot myself.
That's who he looks like.
All right.
All right, but they were sending in some more.
So if they do find him guilty, they'll basically have him serve time here and then go to Uganda.
So I don't know.
George agreed, look into that because right now, I saw kind of a scroll on.
Hold on a second.
There he is.
Wow.
He's like, I just don't want to be here.
He's like, when's his panel done?
Wednesday, second lunch.
I got to go to Christmas.
I was going to wear a tie, but my neck got in the way.
In the green room, there's a Hufflepuff with my name on it.
A lot less funny, but I was going to say something.
No, the judge is saying that the United States can't deport him now to Uganda, that they have to keep him here while they figure out the challenges to it.
So, George, I'm not sure if he's going to serve time here in the United States or if we're basically just putting him on the next plane to Uganda as quickly as possible based on the judge ruling that he has to stay here in the process.
So, just to figure that out.
Let me know if you find it.
At some point he's going to be wrong, but yeah.
He's going to Uganda.
That's the key.
Yeah.
Is at some point, Uganda's a colin.
In Uganda, where the prison sells will sweet.
Yes.
There's a place in far Uganda.
Yeah.
Come fly with me.
Let's fly.
Let's fly away.
Nobody wants to.
I mean, there are no flights to Uganda.
No, in the United States, by the way.
You got to go somewhere else that's close.
And then they're like, maybe we'll get you there with duct tape.
We'll see.
Really?
That's crazy.
There can't be a direct flight.
It's like they're not even a real country.
Is there a direct flight for the United States?
I'm sure there is.
To Uganda?
Well, probably to Europe and then New York.
Do you think Mom Donnie is going to lower himself to take a layover from New York?
He's a socialist.
Yeah, he's one of us.
Oh, right.
He's just.
That's right.
I forget.
I forget.
There are no direct flights from the U.S. Okay.
There you go.
See?
And there's a reason.
Yeah.
Nobody goes to Uganda.
I guarantee you that some people have an answer who are flat earthers.
Like, yeah, there is a reason.
Let me tell you about it.
Ice wall will stop it.
The ice wall will stop it.
You can't fly over the ice wall, bro.
It's too tall.
The flight to Buenos Aires is a myth.
Okay.
Whatever you say, buddy.
Fine.
Yeah, everybody's lying to you from every country on the planet that has a space program.
Well, when you go up in a helicopter, do you land in the same place?
Oh, shut up.
You ever throw a ball while on a moving bus?
It still moves to the front of the bus, dummy.
All right.
It's true.
What are they sending us in?
They were saying that.
Oh.
So we do have Trump at the White House cabinet meeting.
I think he's talking to the press, it looks like right now.
Oh, right now?
Okay.
Let's see.
We had a game, but if you guys want us to cover this, let us know in chat.
Doug and Chris and some of the people, the great job they've done with energy.
Thank you very much.
And Chris, thank you very much.
I see you're down close to $60 a barrel, and you'll be breaking that pretty soon.
And that has a huge impact.
So we have groceries are down.
Energy is way down.
Energy is way down.
It was $4 and $5 for a gallon of gas.
Think of that.
Gasoline.
And now it's probably $2.25.
There are some places it's $2.
It's even broke $2 at a couple of locations.
Thanks.
Yesterday was $270 something here.
I don't think this is $2.48 by my house.
All of those things that they keep saying.
I'm going to be monitoring President Trump and his cabinet meeting here.
We're going to take a quick break, come back, and we'll talk more about it on the other side.
We're going to take a quick break because the fat guy is going to have a heart attack if he doesn't eat donuts in the green room.
He's sitting back.
I can do eight squished together.
That lady has nothing on me.
Oh, my God.
So this is one of the things that I wish Donald Trump would not do.
It's the gas price thing.
Yeah, I don't think it's $2 anyway.
I don't think you can justify that in any way, shape, or form.
I don't think you can find gas at that price for sale to customers.
We can ask Chad if anybody has seen it at $25.
No, at $1.99, he says we've broken $2 in some places.
No places.
There are no places.
He's saying at some point during his term somewhere.
It's still not true.
Maybe in the first term.
In the first term, definitely.
But not right now.
And this is one of those things where I'm like, don't give them this easy thing.
Because the price that it's at is already good.
Buy my house, it's $2.46 or $2.48 this morning.
Yeah.
Which is incredible.
I know it's cheaper in Texas than most places, but I'm still very happy with that.
Well, Newt Gingrich was basing his entire presidential campaign back, I want to say in the 90s or it was early 2000s, saying, I tell you, it's really simple, $2 gas, which is a really dumb campaign.
No, I mean, so the cheapest average is Mississippi at $2.69.
And so he's way, way, way above that on averages.
And so I wish that he would cite the source on this or quit saying this.
So it may just be like one of those numbers somebody told him one time.
Right.
And he just doesn't get it.
I get how that can happen.
Someone's got to say something.
But somebody's got to, yes.
Could the administration be able to get, but Mr. President, actually, it's not that.
So we just need to just walk away from that number for now.
Yeah.
Gas is at a good price.
Yeah, guys.
Everybody be happy.
You said you saw $2.48?
Yeah, up at my house.
I'm not going to say where it is, but I don't know.
Joe Breer 1015 says $1.80 in Missouri.
I don't.
Okay.
Can you send us a picture?
Yeah, I need verification of $1.80.
You can't admonish me.
I love that I said it and Joe gets admonished another question.
Why do you doubt your senses?
We've got another chat, $1.95 and Texas.
$195 and Tennessee.
Listen, if that's true.
Honestly, I do encourage you to post pictures of this because if it is true, then everyone, even people like us are saying it's, we don't think it is true.
Everyone is saying it's not true.
I didn't say that.
So you have a third.
No, Stephen, it's 89%.
I read it because I thought it was definitely feasible that someplace somewhere.
Yes, I absolutely did.
Oh, you did?
Okay.
I did.
I mean, I know that at some point in the last few months, I feel like I've seen 220-something here, 230-something.
Maybe.
And this, and Texas is not always the cheapest.
Like when I've done a lot of cross-country trips, and so that makes sense.
Places like Missouri are usually pretty cheap.
I need, so here's what we need to do.
And so, look, this will help the administration.
Fantastic.
If that exists in those two places that we've seen so far, do me a favor, take a newspaper in proof of life kind of style, go to a gas station and get a picture, and we will get it to the administration to be able to use against the media.
I just realized.
This isn't true.
Yeah, I just realized something.
In some states, they sell 85.
Ethanol?
Yeah, that's usually higher priced.
I've seen it.
No, no, 80 or 30.
85.
No, the ethanol-free one is going to be like 80.
It's going to be like a 90 or an 89, something like that.
87 is usually the typical unleaded base level.
But in some states they do sell 85.
Forget about that.
Because I can't use it in my U-Haul.
I was moving down from Washington.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So maybe that's 85.
Maybe it is 87.
I don't know.
But I'd like to see pictures.
And if you post them, I'll repost them because I want to show the truth if people are.
Forgive my ignorance here because sometimes, occasionally, usually it's the opposite, but sometimes diesel gets to be cheaper than normal gasoline.
Yes.
It used to be all the time.
Yeah.
And then it got more expensive than it's.
It got really expensive.
So what's diesel?
Diesel right now is more expensive.
Is it more expensive?
Because it's less refined.
Yeah.
Right?
I thought that that was what was the reason.
Maybe it's like a different supply demand issue.
I think it's found the dollar more expensive right now.
Wow.
Okay.
On average, but I could be wrong.
Well, maybe someone in chat can send in a picture.
I'm sure we could find this somewhere.
Someone asked to be able to find a gas station.
In other words, if someone just said Tennessee, Missouri, mission control, someone find a gas station in Missouri or in Tennessee that has gas.
It could be look for 85 below $2.
$370 is average.
Yeah, so at least a dollar higher.
Okay.
So find a gas station that has it.
You know what, chat?
Tell us where you are.
You just said a buck 80 in Tennessee or $1.95.
Tell us the gas station and we can look it up right now.
So tell us which gas station the city or the zip code and we'll look it up.
Surely that would be really valid.
Again, I didn't doubt it.
I thought I wasn't going to be a stickler.
Like maybe if there's a place that's 205, I think, yeah, 199 could probably happen in some places.
I mean, driving across this country, I've seen huge, and not including California, but just driving Texas to Michigan and then Michigan to New York and D.C. and back.
I've seen huge discrepancies in prices, like sometimes 60, 70 cents.
Yeah, I was just in Portland this weekend and it was $4.59.
Wow.
I was in the city.
So it's usually typically a little more in the city, but the Chevron, yeah, it was $4.59.
I was like, oh, my God.
I told my buddy, my opener, he was like, $250?
Yeah.
I was like, yeah, sorry, dude.
Here's the deal.
So this came from Broad again, and I think it's a fairly, it's a reasonable compromise.
If somebody can prove this, then I'll have our merch company make admonish shirts and I'll wear it for a week.
Okay.
Oh, that's a good idea regardless.
We're close.
Research just sent in $2.11 at Casey's and Archimedes.
It reported an hour ago.
That's not it.
I know.
Wow.
So what was that?
Was that 87 or 85?
I guess it doesn't matter.
87.
He didn't have to say what level it is.
Yeah, we didn't specify that.
Did Chad say that was the price today, or they were saying it's an hour ago?
Oh, so I'm saying, did chat, when they said a buck 90 or $1.85, did they say that was today?
Because again, all it has to be is at some point during his term, some place cracked below $2, which I honestly believe is very possible.
I definitely don't.
Why wouldn't they do what they've done in the past where they kind of throw these things out there, let the media go crazy, and then prove it?
Because they haven't done that yet.
I'll tell you what.
Because he wasn't planning on them latching onto that.
We're saying the average, he did say the average price, I think, is something like we're close to $2.25.
He said in some places, you know, they cracked below $2.
He wasn't thinking that would be the talking point.
The media go, see, no, he said below $2.
That's not a thing.
So we're kind of, you're kind of feeding into that.
For a while.
He's actually thrown that number out for a while.
Yeah.
It's irresponsible, though.
I mean, even if you think the media is going to latch onto it or not, you can't just go.
Unless it's happened.
Unless it's true.
Which is consistently happening.
Yeah.
Well, he didn't say consistently.
He said at some places at some point.
Yes, it is.
Gas is down.
He said it is down.
He said something broke $2.
Yeah.
But that would be fine if he said that and that's true.
My problem is the way he said it in the past is gas is below $2.
If that's what he said, yeah, it's not on average below $20.
He said that.
So I want to make sure that we're clear.
So if we find it, let's do this.
And listen, maybe we can lampoon the media a little bit here.
Chad, have fun.
The guys who were telling us that price, tell us the gas station.
Tell us where it is because Gerald will wear an admonished shirt and I will make sure that there's all the fixings for a week.
Yes.
All the fixings?
Yeah.
Oh, it's not just going to be a basic admonished.
Oh, boy.
Oh, I got one.
Oh, well, it is.
It's an 85, but.
It's 85 that doesn't count.
Yes, it does.
You can't use that in a lot of cars.
198 East Ridge, Tennessee.
How do you know it's 85?
Where did you see that?
That's what Research sent in.
Oh, Research.
198.
Tennessee.
Okay.
There you go.
85.
It doesn't count.
Yes, it does.
Why wouldn't it count?
You can't use it in.
I don't know if most cars.
I don't want to get a monastery and have to wear a shirt with Gerald over here.
I think you can use it.
I don't think you can use 85 in every car.
I think you can use 85 in any car that doesn't take premium fuel.
Chat, tell us.
No, I know in my U-Haul, it says specifically, do not.
This cannot take 85.
You said that earlier.
E85 is compatible with most new cars, I believe.
Yes, it is.
It wasn't for a while.
So if it's E85, then yeah.
Yeah.
It's not.
Wait a minute.
It says it's not usable in most cars.
George.
Yeah, you can't use 85 in most cars.
It's not 85 octane, it's E85.
George, tell me if new cars can use E85 gas.
Because I think in mind you.
All right, guys, I'm just going to go to my old thing.
You guys take some chests.
You're doing it.
So they're using an app called Gas Buddy.
So it seems to be a pretty good thing.
Gas Buddy, that's what they call me at home.
That's after Labrego Garcia food.
You know what I mean?
It can only be used in specific flex-fuel vehicles, not any car.
Using standard gasoline is not recommended.
They haven't found any regular under $2.
I think one of the closest they got was like $209.
$209.
That is very good, though.
Yes, but don't.
I will say that.
That's 10 cents.
That's 5% off-ish.
I know.
Yeah.
It's irresponsible, I think.
But at the same time, the left goes, and it might have been different two weeks ago, but the left will go nuts over it and go, what a liar!
And a fascist.
And it's like, okay, he was off by 10 cents.
But if he's, is it trending down?
Because if it's trending down, and he's saying that, maybe he's seeing like, you know, forecasting it.
Here's my point.
I don't care that much, but I don't like the idea of being loose with facts.
Sure.
Well, you're about to be loose in that shirt.
Oh, come on.
It'll be tight.
It'll be a nice fitting admonished shirt.
And therefore, so really, I'll just be admonishing myself, Tim, and you'll be out of a gig on the admonished side.
We can double a lot of other things.
I can double up, I think, right?
What's better than a cheeseburger?
If you multiply admonished by admonish, it's no admonish.
So I'm letting you guys do this one.
Double admonish.
We can tell.
We don't hear you.
Please.
Help us.
We want to take a chat.
Yeah, take a check.
All right.
Chat from Verbus.
This is the problem with the internet.
It's just such bullshit.
I thought you were doing your own thing over there.
No, I was.
It's just like right now, it's one of those listicles that says cheapest.
And this is the thing.
It says cheapest gasoline, Aurora, Colorado.
350 per gallon so how is that even I know that's the problem is he's like It's just nothing but clickbait websites.
This is why we make all the references available because we actually take time.
Did you go to AI?
Yeah, but AI is also.
I don't trust AI.
This is an AI.
This is a small article.
I think AI is a little least.
This is an article.
Hold on a second.
Cheapest.
It says this is from U.S. World News and Report.
Cities with the cheapest gas price.
They have Aurora, Colorado, Tucson, Arizona, Tulsa, Oklahoma, Denver, Colorado Springs.
This is more expensive than nuts.
What year?
Well, right now it's just the second article.
This is okay.
This is 2011.
But it's the first article that's showing up.
It's also always going to be more expensive in cities.
Oh, that's awesome.
Okay.
Oh, 2011.
Why?
But that's the first shit.
AI admonished him.
Give him the admonished.
No, not a split admonished.
He gets the full.
We always go down with the shift.
So it says that people found in Gas Buddies database one place that was listed selling gasoline for $199 a gallon at the Sam's Club in Moore, Mooresville, North Carolina.
That's 113 days ago.
Yeah, it's 113 days ago.
But he said at some point people have broken, you know.
That might track with the first time he said 198.
The other thing is if you...
The 113 days.
Yeah, if you talk about the Sam's Club and stuff like that, like, is that with your card discount?
Like, is that actually the gas price?
Yeah, that's a good point.
Because at Kroger, I rack up $500 in groceries a month and I get 50 cents off.
Point is, just say gas prices are good.
Yeah.
That's my point.
Do I have to wear an admonished shirt, though?
Yeah, I don't think that's good.
The barrel number.
The barrel number is a great number, too.
Yeah.
Because that is, I mean, they're not going to dispute that one.
Right.
Barrel number?
Yeah, the price per barrel.
Oil of oil.
Because that's posted.
I mean, it's not like individual gas state.
You kind of want to keep that a little high.
Yeah, there are variables that go into it.
But the truth is it's largely speculative.
If you open up some land leases, then gas price goes down.
I mean, it's one of those things where not no one can give you the exact rhyme or reason, but there are certainly some very big factors taken into account.
Like, okay, if there's more access to oil and energy, gas prices go down.
Gas prices are around where, I mean, we can do some research on this.
I don't want to get too off topic, but we need the oil price to stay at a relatively high, but not super high level.
Because if we don't, then it's not economical for us to produce a lot of the oil that we produce here in the United States, especially the tar sand stuff.
I know that comes from Canada, but a lot of the stuff that we were doing with fracking is more expensive.
And so, with oil prices higher, there's a margin to be made.
If it goes too low, and OPEC knows this.
So, if they flood the market and make the price go down, they can basically kill our industry or set it back by years to make sure they have a stranglehold.
So, it's a historically when accounted for inflation, these are very, very good cash prices.
Yeah, good gas prices.
That's uh, yeah, those oil companies really have a small margin.
I mean, when you think about new kind of scraping by there, you know, those palaces, although you'd be surprised with some of these oil companies and their profit margins are thinner than Coca-Cola, Snap, and a lot of companies are making billions and billions and billions of dollars.
So, I get it.
You know, the percentage is a lot, but you don't put percentages in the bank, you put dollars, and they're putting billions of them in.
Yeah.
So, you know, not really shedding any tears for those guys.
No, I understand.
Me neither.
I know.
And I'm a free enterpriser, but I often wonder when you see CEOs with $100 million-something dollar parachutes and they're laying people off.
It's like, well, you have no right to tell a business owner what they can and can't take.
But when they appoint these CEOs who run the company into the ground, that's where you realize it's a real racket.
A lot of these people sometimes are just managers, like American Airlines.
Like, ah, yeah, it sucks, but he got a bunch of stock options, and so he actually benefits leaving the company.
He makes more money than if he actually did his job.
I mean, you see this with CEOs who go from company to company, destroy them, then they sell them off for parts, basically.
Yeah.
So, yeah, I don't want to vilify someone for making a profit, but a lot of the time when they're always trying to leave you holding the bag, like, well, you're like, well, hold on, couldn't you, I mean, couldn't you just maybe spread around one of the 40 billion?
Yeah.
You know, a little bit.
Yeah.
So that's just the way I run this company here.
All right.
Well, let's grab some chats because I don't think we have time for the game.
You spread the billions around here at this company.
You're correct.
Yes.
The billions do go into everybody's account.
I haven't seen it.
Don't worry.
It's tomorrow.
I'm assured it's there.
I haven't seen it.
We're a lean and mean outfit, but we do all right.
All right.
Is there any breaking news that they were sending us?
I was being told that there was something that we needed to cover.
Or Gerald.
That was Gerald's signal: this there was a video, wasn't there?
Yes.
There was.
We can cover the Harry Enton stuff if you want.
I think that's probably the most absolute.
What did Harry Enton do now?
That's shitty.
Can we do Enton's World?
Do we have a stinger for Harry?
Or do we have the sound effect at the very least?
I knew we had something.
I couldn't remember what it was.
But there's been a lot of talk around the Democrats struggling for the voter registration.
There's been a lot of talk about the realignment.
I don't know exactly what he's talking about here, but he's basically talking about the Democrats really struggling, I think, in swing states trying to find the votes for the midterms, which is.
If I'm not mistaken, I think voter registration for Democrats is down in pretty much every key state.
Yeah.
So if you combine the voter registration being down with the, if some of the redistricting happens and you put the census data in there as well, like they're seeing a really big problem in the future for Democrats, which is great because Donald Trump right now is not at his peak popularity.
No.
And it's still a big problem for you guys.
So it's like, yeah, we still don't like this guy.
But man, policies are kind of nice on this side of the aisle over here most of the time.
We can't agree with some of them, but man, a lot of them are really good for us.
So I think Enton is talking about swing states in the midterm.
So let's see what he has to say.
Okay.
Democratic brand right now has about the appeal with the American voter as the crackle barrel rebrand has with the American consumers.
Bad, bad, bad.
What are you doing?
Oh, my goodness gracious, what are we talking about here in terms of big party registration changes in the key swing states?
Let's look at the key four swing states that in fact do keep track of registration by party.
Look, the Republican Party is in their best position at this point in the cycle since at least 2005.
And all four of these key battleground states, we go out to the southwest.
Arizona.
How about Nevada?
Republicans haven't done this well since 2005.
Oh my goodness gracious at this point in the cycle.
North Carolina, I couldn't find a point at which Republicans were doing better at this point in the cycle.
It's at least this century.
It probably goes way back in the last century.
And Pennsylvania, very similar Republicans doing better.
Thank you, Scott Pressler.
Yeah, no kidding.
At any point this century.
Now, what types of gains are we talking about here for the Republican Party?
Well, let's compare it to this point during the first Trump administration all the way back in 2017.
Look at this.
The Republican Party gains in party registration compared to this point back in 2017 during the Trump first administration in Arizona.
You got a Republican gain of three points.
Okay, how about Nevada?
Up the hill we go, even though we're sickening in the Senate.
That's big.
A gain in Nevada, that's a big one.
Again, we come to the East Coast, North Carolina, a gain of eight points for the Republicans.
And in the Keystone state in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, again, we're talking about a gain of eight points.
Goodness gracious for Republicans.
They are converting old former Democrats to their side of the ledger, as well as picking up new voters, registering new voters, and it absolutely paid off for them back in the 2024 election.
Now, of course, Donald Trump has been president since January.
Are there any bright spots for Democrats?
Have they picked up any ground since January 1 in terms of party registration?
Uh-uh.
What are we talking about?
Party registration margin gain since January 1, 2025.
Which parties gain in Arizona?
The GOP.
How about Nevada?
The GOP.
North Carolina, the GOP.
How about in Pennsylvania?
We'll make it four for four.
The GOP.
The GOP.
Jessica Dean.
When it comes to party registration, Republicans have made massive gains compared to eight years ago.
They are in their best position in these key four swing states dating back at least 20 years.
You have to go back at least 20 years, at least in the case of Nevada, longer in North Carolina and Pennsylvania.
So Republicans looking pretty gosh darn good, at least when it comes to party registration.
And we'll see what happens down the road.
But at this point, as I said at the beginning, the Democratic brand is in about as good a position as the Cracker Barrel rebrand.
It is bad, bad, bad.
There you go.
Thanks, Harry.
He's like a political Gene Shallot who sucks.
You know what?
I kind of like him.
He's fun.
He's fun.
He is.
Yeah, he's fun.
He's just giving stats out there.
He's not really giving opinions.
He's got his personality.
He's got personality.
I can tell you why that's the case.
Now, of course, there's been a huge push, like Pennsylvania registration.
The two most significant there, I would say, are well, Nevada and Arizona, because sorry, Nevada and Pennsylvania, because Nevada was typically seen as blue recently.
And Pennsylvania was seen as blue and now kind of a swing state.
If Pennsylvania is taken away as a swing state, it makes it very hard for Democrats to win elections.
Arizona is important too, especially considering what we went through with that election night that was called for Arizona.
There are a few reasons I would imagine as to why, beyond the really proactive effort to register more voters.
The demographic changes.
Remember, Donald Trump lost ground.
The only group he lost ground with compared to his first, I believe his first administration, don't quote me on it.
I don't remember if it was the 2020 election to 2024, if it was 2016 to 24, was baby boomer-aged sort of conservatives.
A lot of them were turned off by him, so older people.
So those people are dying off, and then you have the most conservative generation, relatively speaking, in their youth ever.
So that's a really good place to be because those people are more than likely to become more conservative as they get into the workforce.
So the fact that they're starting off with this, that's a big deal.
Then you look at the Hispanic vote, right?
Especially Hispanic male vote, how they actually went majority in many places for Donald Trump, or worst case scenario, and even split, pretty much depending on the state.
So you look at that, that's a big deal.
If you were to combine that with changing the census rule, right, as far as not counting anyone who is here illegally, only counting American citizens.
And you look at the seats when we're talking about the actual makeup of the House.
And then if you were to, he said they were going to do something about strengthening elections like voter ID.
Look, this is the time to put your foot on the gas.
They're going to call you a fascist anyway.
So anything you can do to require voter ID, that is immensely popular.
Anything you can do to get rid of illegal aliens, that is immensely popular.
And anything you can do to strengthen the elections to ensure that they're not tampered with.
Nevada, as an example, where we went through that, right?
In Clark County, the registrar is saying, oh, yeah, this vote that we knew was at least not cast from the place that it had been registered.
And then we switched.
It was South Bellevue or South Bonneville Lane, and we went to North Bonneville Lane.
We checked both of them.
This person had never lived there.
The registrar in Clark County said, yeah, well, even if that's the case, there's nothing we can do.
Well, that's done.
So there are quite a few contributing factors here, and all of them are not only good right now, but they're good long term.
They will remain good long term if the results are at least decent with this administration.
The Democrat Party has a really big brand problem, and I don't think they can fix it.
No, I don't think they can fix it either, but the numbers actually get a little bit worse.
So let's pull up just the chart of the states real quick, and then we'll go to these two overlays and I'll read those.
Apparently, like research is saying there's pretty, it's pretty crazy.
But Democrats in the 2030 census are set to lose representation in four states and Republicans.
Do you see the chart there?
It's small.
Yeah, so it's, yeah, you can zoom in a little.
So Illinois, New York, Rhode Island, and California set to lose electoral votes in 2032.
So it'd be the census in 2030, I believe they're talking about.
And then Texas, Utah, Idaho, Florida gaining seats.
So that's fantastic for us.
It basically makes it much, much easier to win the presidency or win national elections without having to worry about winning the swing states that may be in the Midwest somewhere, right?
So the presidency would be a much easier office to grab.
Let me grab these two and I'll read them.
And while you do this, Mission Control, could you bring up, we have that in the previous show map, the states that had percentage of Republican population versus representation in the House.
I think it was like California was, there were some states where there was 40% Republican voters and zero seats.
Like I don't know if it was New Hampshire or Vermont.
If you could send that back in, because I'd like to bring that in on top of what you're about to read.
So I haven't read this yet, but apparently this is pretty mind-blowing stuff.
So across all of the possible scenarios in the nine states that would be considered battlegrounds in the 2032 election, Democrats would see about a third of their current winning electoral college combinations disappear if population projections hold.
However, when looking only at the most feasible winning combinations based on voting behaviors in the 2024 election, the outlook is far worse.
Of Democrats 2020, or sorry, of Democrats' 25 most plausible paths to victory in 2024, only five would remain.
So all of their paths to victory essentially are being taken out by this.
So the next part, should the projections hold, one hope for Democrats is to do what seems, at least after the 2024 election, impossible, pivot to the South.
That would mean turning states like Alabama, Mississippi, Arkansas, and Louisiana, all places Mr. Trump won by more than 20 percentage points into competitive battlegrounds and quickly.
Wow.
That is pretty incredible.
And that's great news for us.
Like pedal on the gas, do not in any way take this for granted.
But if the population data holds, if the projections hold on voter registration, if all of this kind of comes to fruition, like it's going to be really hard for Democrats to win, much less the candidates.
And I just found the numbers, Mission Control.
Don't worry, I got it.
It was from the August 11th show prep.
So here's the thing.
Yeah.
Do both sides, you want to say gerrymander, sure, redistrict?
Yes.
Okay.
But the difference here is when people say, okay, hey, this is just playing politics, the left does it in spite of the representation of the United States.
In other words, everything they do, no voter ID, that is not designed to represent you, the American worker, the American taxpayer.
That's designed to steal your vote on behalf of people who have no business being here.
When you look at how they redistrict, and let me give you some of these numbers again.
Massachusetts, to give you an idea, 36% Trump vote zero, GOP congressman.
Hawaii, 37% Trump vote zero, GOP congressman.
Connecticut, 41% Trump vote zero, GOP congressman.
Rhode Island, 2024, 41% Trump vote, zero, GOP congressman.
Maine, 45% Trump vote zero, GOP congressman.
New Mexico, 45% Trump vote zero, GOP congressman.
And yeah, I was right.
New Hampshire, 47% Trump vote, zero, GOP congressman.
So when you add that up, okay, they deserve.
So I think that there should be some redistricting in order.
So at least 47% of the state should have some, meaning any representation.
I don't think that that is unreasonable.
I think that's a very rational approach to say when you look at these states, there is not a proportional representation.
Okay, so you can argue with people playing politics, but in one case, you have a party trying to more accurately represent the people they're supposed to serve.
Same thing you look at redistricting in Texas.
Crockett does not represent the people in her district.
There's a reason that she will be out of a job.
And then the GOP is saying, hey, the votes that should be counted should only be the votes of American citizens.
That's doing it on your behalf.
The left is fighting against your behalf.
And if you look at the actual state seats, when you're talking overall, or sorry, I mean electoral votes, well, that's because of population decline in places like California, New York.
Hey, why is that?
In other words, when the left says we shouldn't lose any of these electoral votes, we shouldn't have to face the consequences of the lockdowns and the vaccine mandates and our own policies.
Trans kids.
Can't you float us?
The answer is no.
People left because of your policies, because your policies don't represent them.
So the representation should go to the place where they moved to.
They should be represented by the place they choose to live in right now.
And are still doing it, by the way.
Yep.
That's my whole theory.
If you could bring up that graphic again with the states, the blue states and the red states.
Yeah.
I want to point something out.
Like, okay, so you look at the states that are losing, California, a lot of people are going from California to Arizona, Nevada.
This has been happening since I was a teenager.
I've lived in blue states almost my whole life, on the West Coast almost my whole life.
So people going from California to Arizona, Nevada, my whole life, the last four years, and especially with the election, him winning the popular vote, people are like, oh, I'm not the minority.
Yeah.
I'm tired of living here.
They're moving from California, going to Nevada, going to Arizona.
You saw Idaho is one of the red states that are gaining.
People are going from Washington.
They're going from Oregon to Idaho because it's a great place to live for them.
Montana, I would bet Montana is also growing too, probably not at the same rate.
That's why it's not included.
And you look at Pennsylvania, yes, Scott Presser did a lot of great work there, but New York, Connecticut, these people are moving to Pennsylvania for the same exact reason.
It's not just for policy, but it's cheaper to live.
You have more like-minded people.
You're getting represented and staffing zero representatives in Congress.
You feel like your voice is heard.
Your family is happier.
Yeah.
And like you said earlier, all these things are culminating.
Like you said earlier, people are registering to vote.
They're getting, I don't think more people are switching their registration.
I think more people are just moving places or becoming of age and dying.
So people that were in high school during COVID are now registering in places like Nevada and Arizona and Idaho and Pennsylvania.
They're like, hey, that was bullshit.
Yeah.
I'm an adult now.
I'm going to register as a Republican because they weren't the ones that were trying to shut us down.
Well, let's think about this.
It's a very good point.
And I think the dynamic the left wants is the one that's been at play for a very long time.
Two coasts, California and New York.
And the rest of America fighting against them for representation, right?
There's the way everybody else lives, and then there's California, New York, and D.C. Now, people have, they want to preserve that dynamic in spite of the fact that they chose to lose power.
They chose to implement policy that's been so bad.
They've had their way for so long that people are leaving.
And now they want to force you to still live within that dynamic.
Bring up that thing again.
And I'm going to be simplistic here.
Can you zoom in a little bit so I can see it?
Okay.
So.
Let's go through this for a second.
This is, I know that there are other factors.
For example, with Texas, there's a lot of industry that's moved to Texas, but you could argue it's for the same reasons.
Okay.
The left doesn't want to.
And when I say this, I mean this.
You see it from feminism in the left.
You see it from LGBTQAIP.
You see it from whatever marginalized group.
You see it from Catch and Release.
You see it from Coca-Cola on Snap.
They are allergic to accountability.
The left refuses to ever take accountability for their own mistakes.
And they're still doing it.
Let me prove this to you right now.
Okay.
Population decline in California.
What did we just see these last two weeks?
Gavin Newsome?
Yeah.
Gavin Newsome.
Yeah.
Well, we're going to redistrict the hell out of California.
And by the way, you don't tell us how to govern our state.
We're fine with what's going on here with homelessness.
And people are going, wait a second.
No, it's not.
Bring it back up.
They're saying, no, it's not.
We're not okay with this.
No, no, we're fine.
Hey, don't tell us how to do California, buddy.
So the people say, all right, since this man claims to speak for me, I'm leaving.
But they want to go, no, no, but we still get to keep your electoral votes.
Let's look at Illinois.
People in Illinois.
Hey, murder capital of big city, Chicago.
It's basically Chicago and corn.
And what do you have your mayor saying?
You don't tell us how to do Illinois, buddy.
Why don't you let me?
And, you know, of course, by default, all Democrats do the Illinoising here.
Okay, great.
People leave.
Why?
Because your city sucks.
You've had your way.
It's awful.
People want to be able to protect themselves.
People want to be able to walk in their own streets and be safe.
Right now, they're still denying it.
And so the consequence is people leave.
And then they want to stop you from having that freedom to leave.
Bring it back up.
Let's look at New York.
Hey, buddy, don't, New York is not that.
Don't tell us how to do New York.
We're not going to, we want to be a sanctuary city.
Hey, hold on a second.
We're going to arrest people for saving other folks on the subway right now.
Don't tell us how to do it.
We're not going to let you carry a gun here in New York.
Hey, New Yorkers are happy.
And New Yorkers are saying, no, no, we're leaving.
And then they want to rob you of your God-given right in this country to be represented.
Same thing we just went through at Rhode Island right there.
Rhode Island is one of the states.
Hold on, let me bring up a number.
41% voted for Trump Zero GOP congressman.
And they're going, hey, come on, guys.
Don't tell us.
Trump, you're not going to bully us.
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
Where'd you go?
Can we keep the seats?
Let's go to the states that are gaining them, okay?
Texas.
Texas is growing like crazy.
Hey, what did Texas do?
Oh, that's right.
We are going to deport you and needs more razor wire.
Remember that?
National Guard.
Hey, we're going to do the job that when Biden wasn't, we're going to do this job.
You know what?
We're going to send some of these illegal aliens.
We're going to send them to New Hampshire or where the hell they sent them.
Let's bring that back up again.
Let's look at Florida.
Hey, whether you voted for him in the primary, like him or not, Ron DeSantis, you know what?
We think we should do away with property tax he's talking about right now.
Alligator Alcatraz.
We don't have a problem with deporting anybody right here, and we're going to follow law and order.
And so people go there.
What they're asking is to represent the people who have chosen that place to live.
Bring it back up.
Let's go to, well, Idaho.
Obviously, Idaho, they have a lot of potatoes.
Also, Idaho right now.
That's a little bit skewed because of the tech industry.
The Pacific Northwest people moving over there.
Pacific Northwest people moving over there.
Here's a huge thing, too, is all the states you mentioned, all the blue states you mentioned, California, Illinois, New York, people are tired of the policy.
They're tired of the policy being funded by some of the highest tax rates in the country, property and income.
I think California, mind me if I'm wrong, but I think California is like 12% state income tax.
New York is, I think, second highest.
I think it's California and New York are the one, two highest tax.
They're also very high.
Yeah.
And property tax is very high in all three states.
Go to the red states, much lower.
Texas, no state income tax.
Right.
Florida talking about getting rid of property tax.
Not done yet.
I don't know what their state income tax is, but I know it's not one of the highest.
I don't think they have a state income tax in Florida.
It might be.
No.
So there's no state income tax.
So all these things, they're tired of policies happening, and then their money is paying for the bullshit that they have to endure every single day.
What I'm trying to do, they can't figure it out.
Just to clarify, I think we have higher property taxes, but no state income tax.
Where they have state income tax and lower property taxes.
My property taxes are almost double.
They were in Washington.
Yeah, property taxes here.
That's where they get you.
They need to do something about that for sure.
But here's what I'm trying to point out here is what the left does, right, when you look at Illinois, you look at Gavin Newsome, it's time to stand up to bullies.
Same thing, Chicago.
It's time to stand up to the bully, Donald Trump.
You look at whoever was mayor at that point in New York City.
Right now, the guy kind of seems to be somewhat reasonable with policy, but it's time.
You're not going to tell, hey, we're standing up to the bullies.
They make it seem like Donald Trump is the bully, this administration.
But wouldn't it stand to reason that if Donald Trump is a bully, if he's a tyrant, if he's a fascist, the states that are most aligned with his policies, Texas, Florida, that people being persecuted, bullying would be leaving.
Instead, the people, the mayors, the governors, the representatives who say, we're going to stand up to the bully, Donald Trump, their own people are leaving, which tells you what.
They're the bullies.
Donald Trump is trying to bully these states and these cities into doing what the citizens are asking for.
You don't bully citizens into jumping to another state that is more like you're bullying in the first place.
In other words, the left is gaslitting you.
And they say, we're not going to be bullied.
We stand proud in New York and California and Illinois.
Well, I tell you what, if this is what bullying looks like, you certainly would have to concede that Donald Trump's policy and his approach is much more similar to Governor Abbott and DeSantis than Newsom and Hochul.
If that's what bullying looks like, why do you think Americans are in record numbers to the point of changing the map beyond repair for Democrats?
Why do you think they're all saying, hey, I want to go where I can get some more bullying?
It's like Donald Trump said, they're not after him.
They're after you.
He's just standing in the way.
That's exactly right.
And now they're literally after you, and he's standing in the way so that you can still have representation in the state that you chose.
Every single turn, when you make your own decisions, when you are free to do so, Democrats try and cancel it out.
Who's the bully?
Genuinely.
It's all a facade.
The left, of course, it's rooted in Marxism.
And by the way, we're going to have a segment on that tomorrow.
Cuba, there's a Cuban-born businessman who moved here.
His parents fled Castro.
He's running for mayor in New York City because he sees this communist Mamdani and he just can't handle it.
Will he win?
Probably not.
But that's another example.
When you understand how communist, and I mean deeply Marxist and communist the left is, and I truly mean that.
Tomorrow you'll see.
Castro, what they always do to the left as they move on.
Go, no, no, no, not that communism.
We don't mean Mao, China.
Well, Anita Dunn certainly said so.
She looks to Mao for inspiration.
We don't mean communist Cuba, Castro.
That's not what we mean.
Well, hold on a second.
Susan Ratolo, Jane Fonda, Steven Spielberg, Oliver Stone, Francis Ford Coppola.
Jack Nicholson, go down the list.
All of them were saying, actually, this is proof right here.
This is the good communism.
They supported actively, specifically the Castros.
But since it didn't work, they go, no, no, we mean a different communism.
You need to understand that these people, the left in the United States, they're not a legitimate party as we would view or the founding fathers would view a party.
In many ways, they are a foreign adversary doing the bidding of foreign communist adversarial nations.
It is deeply rooted in Marxist communist ideology.
If they were about democracy and preserving it, they would say, ah, all right, well, that's on me.
You chose, of course, we should have proportional representation in the states and their citizens therein.
That makes sense.
Let's try and do better.
Instead, they try and find some loophole so that they can still maintain their stranglehold on power, even though you chose to strip them of it.
And how else can they do it?
At a certain point, when the Democrats are losing in every single key state and they are unpopular on almost every single issue, let me ask you this.
How do they stay in any kind of power?
It's not because you chose them, it's because they take it and they enforce it while demanding that you be completely unable to enforce your own God-given rights.
This is not hyperbole.
I'm not exaggerating.
If the Democrats had their way completely unfettered, it wouldn't matter how many of you live in any state.
They would just get all the seats and you would have to do what they want.
How do you know that's the case?
Did you live through COVID?
Let me ask you this.
When they say preserving democracy, and I go back to this because this is, it's a moment in our lifetime, a flashpoint that we should all remember.
And I've never seen more people turn away from the Democratic Party than COVID.
When they say it's about preserving democracy, we've just gone through the voter registrations and we've just gone through the representation in the Electoral College.
Okay, let's distill this.
It's about preserving democracy.
You lived through COVID.
You in California?
Were you in New York?
Let's go international with our leftist policies.
Were you in Canada?
You live in Canada?
You live in Australia?
California, New York, Illinois, Canada, Australia?
What in the fuck took place that makes you think they wanted to preserve democracy?
And why would you ever believe it again?
There's no excuse now.
Act and vote accordingly.
We'll see you tomorrow.
Straight gentlemen, that's what I know.
