| All right, trusty viewers, I'm Dave Rubin. | ||
| This is The Rubin Report. | ||
| It's September 19th, 2020, or we are live streaming on Rumble, YouTube, and Locals. | ||
| We've got a postgame show, as always, rubinreport.locals.com. | ||
| Today's a community Q&A, so if you want to get questions in on the fly, I've got about 15 of them loaded up on this very sack of paper right here. | ||
| But if you want to get a bonus one in, you can join us at reubenreport.locals.com. | ||
| And we're going to hit just a couple things that we didn't get to earlier in the week, but highlighted by. | ||
| We had to change some stuff because out of nowhere last night, it was not announced in advance, this orange man with crazy hair who they keep trying to kill. | ||
| Donald J. Trump showed up on the Gutfeld exclamation point program on Fox News, so we're gonna show a couple clips of that. | ||
| Contrast his authenticity, even when he's sitting there doing a silly comedy show, clearly with no notes and no preparation, how that is just in stark contrast to Kamala Harris. | ||
| And then we'll hit a couple other things. | ||
| Before we do that, though, let me talk to you guys about G-Defy shoes. | ||
| I believe we've recorded an ad for them. | ||
| Hot diggity damn. | ||
| G-Defy shoes are the absolute best choice for walking, running, and standing. | ||
| If you're someone who loves being active, or you simply spend a lot of time on your feet, these are the shoes for you. | ||
| After bawling all these years, I can confirm that G-Defy shoes are the best footwear I've used on the court. | ||
| Every shoe contains G-Defy's patented Verso Shock technology, which aligns your body, absorbs harmful shock from the ground up, provides energy return, giving you the boost you deserve to walk like a champ. | ||
| All of their shoes come with two free orthotics, GDefy will support your active lifestyle, keeping you comfortable and free from discomfort. | ||
| Go to GDefy.com and use code Reuben30 for an exclusive $30 off $130 or more. | ||
| That's G-D-E-F-Y.com and use code Reuben30 for $30 off orders of $130 or more. | ||
| Throwing to myself for an ad. | ||
| That's futuristic technology right there. | ||
| All right, let's dive right into it. | ||
| So Trump just shows up on the Gutfeld program. | ||
| He did not sit in my usual chair. | ||
| He sat across the way. | ||
| Here's clip number one. | ||
|
unidentified
|
But it's interesting to see the response to this second attempt. | |
| Every time you're under a bigger threat, the media still blames you even more. | ||
| It's almost as though they don't see their own role in this. | ||
| Have you just basically accepted this as a fact? | ||
| I think so, yeah. | ||
| Look, the media is extremely dishonest, extremely corrupt, actually. | ||
| Look at the debate. | ||
| I walked off, I said, that's the bait. | ||
| You know, they said I'm the goat in debates, because I had a lot of debates and I became president. | ||
| And the goat means greatest of all time. | ||
| He's a goat. | ||
| But what a great... And I walked off that stage and I thought I had the best debate. | ||
| And I was very unfairly treated by the anchor. | ||
| I'm not fans of those guys anymore. | ||
| And his hair was better five years ago than it is now. | ||
| That happens. | ||
| That happens with the clock. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You mean, who among us? | |
| That happens with the clock. | ||
| But you know... | ||
| They came at me on everything, like crime. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| I said, the crime is rampant. | ||
| He said, crime is down. | ||
| I said, crime is down? | ||
| Who would think it's... Without even knowing, and I was right, the following day, DOJ announced numbers. | ||
| I don't know who it was in DOJ, but somebody over there likes me, that crime is up 45%, murder's up numbers like you wouldn't even believe. | ||
| And anybody would know that without even seeing charts, but it turned out to be a false attack. | ||
| They attacked the word The bloodbath, that was referring to the auto industry, you know all these things. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Charlottesville was totally debunked by everybody, including Laura. | ||
| Laura did a whole show on it, how it's so ridiculous. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And even Snopes! | |
| Okay, so I don't have to analyze that for you, other than that is just Trump being Trump, right? | ||
| He's kind of being silly and off the cup and cracking jokes and explaining what the GOAT is, and then also showing his frustration, and I guess you could probably Say, well, maybe Trump, you shouldn't have liked those guys before. | ||
| He's like, I don't like them anymore. | ||
| You probably should have realized what you were walking into. | ||
| In a weird way, maybe him walking into that was the best thing that happened because it was just another continuance of more and more people seeing how corrupt the media is because it was a three-on-one and they only fact-checked him. | ||
| He's right. | ||
| And their fact-checking wasn't even correct. | ||
| But the reason I really wanted to show you that was just after everything this man has been Brew, almost getting shot again just a couple days ago. | ||
| Here he is, just showing up. | ||
| Do you think he did one second of preparation for that show? | ||
| Do you think so? | ||
| Like, I've done The Gutfeld Show a million times, I'm gonna do it in a couple weeks. | ||
| It's like, they give you some notes beforehand just so you know what the topics are. | ||
| But do you, and some comics or whoever might write a joke or two, or every now and again, I'll have like a little line ready, you know, to throw out there. | ||
| But Donald Trump, you know, you know, he sat in that green room for one minute, probably had his Diet Coke, and just walked out there and was himself. | ||
| And that is so different than this prepackaged, homogenized nothing that we are being shown with Kamala, right? | ||
| So let's throw you one more clip of Trump on Gutfeld last night. | ||
| And they didn't correct her once and they corrected me everything I said practically. | ||
| I think nine times or eleven times. | ||
| And the audience was absolutely, they went crazy. | ||
| And the real, I thought it was, I walked off I said, that was a great debate, I loved it. | ||
| And I think my only regret is that I wanted to be elegant and I didn't want to go after the anchors. | ||
| I wish I did in a way. | ||
| That's our job. | ||
| Isn't that interesting? | ||
| Like it's kind of refreshing even hearing that. | ||
| He thought he had a great debate. | ||
| I actually believe he believes that. | ||
| And as I said, that night, like it wasn't like the most amazing night ever in debating because of how horrible the anchors were because of the dishonesty of Kamala. | ||
| And that, yeah, maybe Trump was a bit jumpy or people kept saying he was taking the bait, but would you not be pissed in a situation like that? | ||
| Like he was fighting everybody. | ||
| And the simple truth is I don't know anyone that could have done it better. | ||
| And I don't think you do either. | ||
| I think that is why we have Donald Trump. | ||
| That is why the collective we have unearthed this man somehow to be running again right now. | ||
| So I think he's right about that. | ||
| I also think it's interesting even to say, I wish I would have been a little more elegant. | ||
| That's what I wanted to do. | ||
| And you know, right before the debate, I wasn't the only person saying this, but a lot of people were saying, boy, if he can just kind of do what he did, The first time around with Joe Biden, which was let him make the mistakes, just lay out your case, don't be chippy and nitpicking every little fight and everything else, then that's the win. | ||
| So perhaps he could have done a bit more of that. | ||
| But even the fact that he's admitting that, that is so much more than we get out of any other politician. | ||
| So after all of these years of this guy being a politician, in a weird way, he's still the least Politician-y of all the politicians. | ||
| I was on Megyn Kelly's show yesterday, and I want to show you this one clip because Megyn is still going off on these two anchors, these two quote-unquote moderators from ABC, David Muir mostly, and he went on Kelly Ripa, the morning show over on ABC, so he went on the morning entertainment show to explain what happened on the evening debate show. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I believe it was our duty to ask the issues that Americans care about. | |
| The economy. | ||
| Are we better off than we were four years ago? | ||
| Immigration. | ||
| What are you going to do about the border? | ||
| Why did you wait so long before you acted on the border? | ||
| Those types of questions. | ||
| Reproductive rights. | ||
| Afghanistan. | ||
| Do you bear any responsibility? | ||
| A peaceful transfer of power with the next election coming. | ||
| These are all really important issues. | ||
| The issues of our time, really. | ||
| And I always say as a moderator, you know, what the candidates decide to do with that time, you can ask the questions, but they'll answer with whatever they choose to answer with. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| And you have to be ready for whatever might come your way, even the most unexpected of moments. | ||
| As you all know, you know what I'm talking about. | ||
| And I will say this. | ||
| All of the noise that you hear afterward about, you know, which candidate won the debate, did the moderators win or lose, that's just noise. | ||
| You all know that. | ||
| The most important thing to remember is that you all have the power. | ||
| Well, I see he's just playing it right down the middle, Dave. | ||
| Let me tell you what that was. | ||
| That was clean up in aisle 7, because his ratings are down 12% since the debate. | ||
| And far more than he's seeing on the competition on CBS and NBC. | ||
| They both fell a little this week, just as it wasn't, I guess, that busy in Newsweek, but for, you know, the whole assassination thing. | ||
| Anyway, but his ratings are down. | ||
| People are leaving. | ||
| They're angry. | ||
| And so he's out there. | ||
| This wasn't Wednesday after the debate. | ||
| It wasn't Thursday after the debate. | ||
| It wasn't Friday. | ||
| It was Monday because ABC News can see he's in a free fall. | ||
| We don't need to play any of me there. | ||
| You get the point. | ||
| They are running cover right now. | ||
| They're using one of their entertainment shows, The Morning Show, to run cover for their news operation. | ||
| And Muir gets out there and he's not dressed like an anchor. | ||
| You get to see him in some other clothes and pretends that he just did a good job, as Megyn Kelly said. | ||
| You know, playing it down the middle. | ||
| And it's like, no, you did not, dude. | ||
| You fact checked only Trump. | ||
| It sounds like you guys may have had agreements with the Kamala Harris campaign as per what she was going to be asked or not asked. | ||
| There's now an affidavit, which has been signed apparently by a ABC employee who's worked there for a decade. | ||
| We'll find out more about that. | ||
| Who's claiming that there was some collusion between the campaign and the network. | ||
| And again, this leads you to a place where Trump goes on Gutfeld and then is very honest about what happened. | ||
| I would add that, you know, Muir is sort of right on one point, which is that now it's up to all of us. | ||
| And the question is, did one person on earth that watched that debate change their opinion after the debate? | ||
| We can all talk about it. | ||
| We can all have our feelings, and oh, they were unfair to him, and this one won, that one won, oh my God, she did this, blah, blah, blah. | ||
| But did anyone change their opinion? | ||
| I don't really think so. | ||
| So we got about 47 days, if I'm not mistaken, before this thing, before we have election day, and then we shall see how many days it'll take to actually get a result. | ||
| But speaking of some of the nonsense of the debate and the dishonest fact-checking and everything else, there's a guy that, I didn't know who this guy was a couple weeks ago, but we've shown a couple clips of him. | ||
| His name is Scott Jennings. | ||
| Sort of the token conservative over on CNN, but he's doing a pretty decent job. | ||
| You know, usually they get you the pet Republican. | ||
| I always talk about Elissa Farrar on The View who never makes a conservative point, and then they just pat her on the head to go after Donald Trump and give her a cookie. | ||
| This guy's actually getting up there and fighting with these people. | ||
| So here he is in like a one-on-five panel showing that, yes, they were pushing some hoaxes around Donald Trump. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I just don't agree. | |
| I mean, the underpinning of her campaign, I mean, she repeats it herself. | ||
| Trump will be a dictator on day one. | ||
| I mean, this country fights dictators. | ||
| That's what our history is. | ||
| We fight dictators. | ||
|
unidentified
|
He'll be a dictator on day one. | |
| There'll be a bloodbath. | ||
| He wants to terminate the U.S. | ||
| Constitution. | ||
|
unidentified
|
The first thing she said, which was true, and the second thing... It is said by every Democrat working for or around her campaign every day on this network and every other one. | |
| The bloodbath thing is stated every single day. | ||
| But my point is, dictator, bloodbath, eliminate Constitution... Hold on. | ||
| Let's just clear this up. | ||
| You're referring to Trump's use of the word bloodbath when he was talking. | ||
| And what was he talking about? | ||
| I'm going to explain it to people because I think there's confusion about this. | ||
| Use of the word bloodbath when he was talking about, you know, vehicle manufacturing jobs in the United States. | ||
| Vice President Harris improperly and unfairly mischaracterized that as him saying there would be a bloodbath if he were elected. | ||
| However, she did not say that if Trump were elected there would be a bloodbath. | ||
| She did not say that. | ||
| Wow, that is such confusion by her. | ||
| She almost got it right, right? | ||
| Trump was talking about there would be a bloodbath in the automotive industry, so she kind of got it right, and then she, of course, once again runs cover for Kamala Harris. | ||
| But even the optics of that, as he sits next to that guy who looks like half-fat Albert, half-Albert Einstein, the optics of that, why is it always five-on-one? | ||
| Why is it every single show on network TV, except for Fox News, always has five wackadoodle leftists And one conservative every single show. | ||
| Why is that? | ||
| Let's jump back to Gutfeld with an exclamation point one more time. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Mr. P, how's your golf game? | |
| Well, I haven't been thinking about it too much lately. | ||
| I always said golf is a very dangerous game. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It really is. | |
| Especially if they're playing with you. | ||
| Yeah, that's true. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That was a mean joke. | |
| Pretty sad. | ||
| If they had told you that the shooter was there, would you have tried to take him out with your three-wood? | ||
| I think so. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| If I knew. | ||
| Actually, the Secret Service did a great job. | ||
| They saw the barrel of a gun. | ||
| Big gun. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And it came out through bushes. | ||
| And how many people would see that? | ||
| He really was very exceptional to have done it. | ||
| AK-47. Big gun. Big gun. It is a big gun. Remember we all we took my team shooting a couple months ago | ||
| We shot an AK-47 that thing will freaking it'll do some damage to your shoulder if you're not paying attention in | ||
| any event The reason I'm showing you that again, it's just to | ||
| illustrate one more time that Love him hate him or anything else. The guy is speaking off | ||
| the cuff He's thinking, he's making silly jokes, and then he says something real about the Secret Service and everything else. | ||
| And now I want to contrast that with Kamala Harris, who, again, is just an avatar. | ||
| She is an NPC candidate. | ||
| She's a non-playable character candidate. | ||
| She does not believe anything she's saying. | ||
| She's reading the scripts. | ||
| She's in collusion with the media. | ||
| You guys get that. | ||
| And then, of course, what... They have the collusion with the media, and then what's the other thing, you know, that they have, which is their main thing? | ||
| It is fear. | ||
| They must keep you in fear all the time, which is why they love the bloodbath nonsense and they love the dictator on day one nonsense and all of the stuff. | ||
| So here's Kamala giving a speech a day or two ago, talking about Trump and mass deportations. | ||
| Take a look. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Now they have pledged to carry out the largest deportation, a mass deportation in American history. | |
| Imagine what that would look like and what that would be. | ||
| Kamala, imagine what would happen to a country if you let 12 to 15 million illegals in, and had no idea where they were, what their intentions are, what they're doing, did they bring in drugs, are they rapists, criminals, gang members, etc. | ||
| That seems pretty scary, but for some reason you don't care about that. | ||
| So, partly what she's saying there is true. | ||
| Donald Trump has said there will be deportations, and I think, as I've said a million times on this show, We'd really have to think about what that looks like. | ||
| Like, how do you really round people up? | ||
| How do you make sure the wrong people don't get caught up? | ||
| What do you do about children who have been born here or people who've lived here for 20 years and are law-abiding citizens and all of those things? | ||
| But if we don't have some degree of deportations, if we don't have some degree of actually closing the border first, which now she's kind of for, even though Joe Biden, who's God knows where he is, could do it right this second. | ||
| It's like, you gotta do that. | ||
| And then we have to have some type of deportations, but even if you just say the word, somehow, of course, the subtext is you're a racist and you're a bigot and everything else. | ||
| So that's what they have. | ||
| They have fear-mongering. | ||
| And I wanna contrast that with one other clip from Donald Trump, because there was a really, really wonderful video going viral a couple days ago online about where there was this young kid, he has some sort of speech defect or something, and Donald Trump sent him Well, now, Donald Trump made an actual surprise guest appearance and had a gift for little Liam. | ||
| and he cries, it actually brought tears to my eyes. | ||
| It was just so absolutely wonderful. | ||
| Well, now Donald Trump made an actual surprise guest appearance and had a gift for Lilliam. | ||
| Take a look. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I'm supposed to be at the next stage, but this is better. | |
| Because I got you the best President you'll ever have. | ||
| This is the best President you'll ever have. | ||
| How are you? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Huh? | |
| Hi, Mom. | ||
| Okay, honey, this is yours. | ||
| And in here is real good stuff. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| So beautiful. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
|
unidentified
|
See? | |
| Look at that. | ||
| Look at these great photographers. | ||
| And we're going to have that picture for life. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Okay? | |
| You and me. | ||
| Is she going to come out and watch me? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Of course. | |
| Hold on. | ||
| the stage in order to come and say hello to him. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I'm specially for it. | |
| Okay, honey? | ||
|
unidentified
|
So beautiful. | |
| So you take care of mom and dad, visit your sister, right? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Here, I've got some lanic right here. | |
| So why don't we do this? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Take care of yourselves. | |
| Okay, I'm gonna go right after this. | ||
| Take care of yourself, honey, okay? | ||
| I wish I looked like that, or I'd look like that if he presides. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Hold up, carefully. | |
| (papers rustling) | ||
| Can you read it? | ||
| Out loud? | ||
| Sure. | ||
| It says, Dear Liam, Happy eighth birthday. | ||
| Mrs. Trump and I hope you enjoy this special occasion surrounded by the love of your family and friends. | ||
| We are so encouraged by the strength and determination you have shown throughout your young life and send our love and best wishes to you as you continue to fight. | ||
| Remember you are never alone and we are keeping you in our thoughts and prayers for continued health, for continued care and good health. | ||
| May God bless you and your family. | ||
| Stay strong, sincerely. | ||
| Can you tell me who signed that? | ||
| Donald Trump. | ||
| He knew it was your birthday coming up? | ||
| What do you say to him? | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| I love you. | ||
| What else did he say? | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| I mean, you could tear up watching it. | ||
| I've watched it like five times already. | ||
| Liam actually has a rare brain disorder, not speech disorder. | ||
| So obviously that was the original video and then Trump shows up for the kid and it's like, he does not have to do these things. | ||
| And I know, yes, someone else might write the thing and he just signs it and it's just, you know, a minute out of his life to walk in there. | ||
| It's just more real, and I think that that shows you a much deeper part of him than you will ever get with the people that pretend to be the nice people and everything else. | ||
| Guys, we will get to a ReubenReport.LocalsCommunity Q&A, which you can get questions in on the fly right now. | ||
| We have internet in this place and a computer over there to receive other questions. | ||
| Okay, we do. | ||
| But first, let me tell you about Home Title Lock. | ||
| I want to tell you guys about a crime happening in the United States called house stealing, also known as title theft, where criminals can transfer your home's title into their name with just a single document and wipe out your equity without you even knowing. | ||
| Many of you know I recently moved to Florida, which, like all other states, has become a hotbed for these crimes. | ||
| In Sarasota, Home Title Lock caught a cyber thief from New York trying to sell a family's property on a popular real estate website. | ||
| The thief had fraudulently changed the title, but Home Title Lock quickly detected it and restored the title back to the rightful owner. | ||
| Imagine if they hadn't been subscribed to Home Title Lock. | ||
| It could have been disastrous. | ||
| If you're not monitoring your title, these criminals can get away with this, leaving you, the homeowner, to deal with the aftermath in court. | ||
| The best way to protect your equity is with Triple Lock Protection from our friends at Home Title Lock. | ||

| All right, let's dive into some questions from you guys. | ||
| Trying Daily says, I just attended my 45th high school reunion and was kind of surprised to have such a great time. | ||
| Have you or would you attend a reunion? | ||
| You know, having glanced through these questions quickly before we started, I realized that I, so I graduated high school in 1994. | ||
| This year was my 30th freaking reunion. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Jeez. | |
| I did not get an email about it. | ||
| I don't know if I'm not on the list. | ||
| Maybe some, maybe it's the libs. | ||
| It's the libs. | ||
| They kicked me off the list. | ||
| I did go to my 10th high school reunion, which was absolutely wonderful. | ||
| I had such a freaking great time. | ||
| And you know, having lost touch with a good amount of people. | ||
| You know, one thing that for me has made it a little bit, like I don't feel the need to connect with all of those people again, is that my two, truly my two best friends on this planet, My buddy John, we met the first day of kindergarten. | ||
| The first day of kindergarten. | ||
| I literally remember meeting him. | ||
| We were four years old, 41 years ago. | ||
| And now he just moved down to Florida. | ||
| We live about 12 minutes away. | ||
| And my buddy Ari moved to town when we were in third grade. | ||
| He's in Dallas now, but we're still like this. | ||
| The three of us. | ||
| So I feel like I still have that old connection. | ||
| And I do just because I suppose of the nature of what I do. | ||
| Randomly I get emails from people in high school or junior high or summer camp or some of the other stuff. | ||
| So I've managed to have those little moments with people. | ||
| I'm sure if I went to another reunion and I guess if I can get on the list for my 40th, if they'll have me, I would go if time would avail and everything else. | ||
| Because it is great having those old connections. | ||
| We think we're so freaking connected with this thing and I think perhaps not. | ||
| Eurasian says Tim Walls believes misinformation should not be protected by the First Amendment and then should he then be put in jail for implying he's some kind... Phoenix, roll with me here. | ||
| I think we lost the end of the sentence. | ||
| Oh, he implied that he was a combat vet, right? | ||
| Look, first off, the fact that he went out and said that, which apparently he said while I was off the grid. | ||
| That was a clip from August. | ||
| This move that they're making on speech, it's so damn obvious. | ||
| You know, we've played a couple of clips for you this week. | ||
| Hillary saying we should be censoring misinformation. | ||
| Tim Walz saying it. | ||
| There's many, many clips of Kamala saying it in the past. | ||
| We know that the current administration worked with big tech to silence people during COVID. | ||
| They are telling you who they are. | ||
| And thank God for the First Amendment. | ||
| And double thank God for the Second Amendment, which allows us to protect the First Amendment. | ||
| I assure you guys, there are many, many people, literally hundreds of millions of people throughout the world, that wish they lived in countries that had the protections around speech that we have. | ||
| As I say all the time, Look, people say horrible things to me online all the time. | ||
| And it's your choice to look at them, to engage in them, to take it in and make it real in your reality, but either put this thing down or block people or mute people or don't be on it at all or whatever it might be. | ||
| But the second they come, Start silencing you. | ||
| That is the first step of what I would say would be many, many other much worse steps than that. | ||
| Bonnie AZ says, have you thought about having a person on the ground for your show? | ||
| Like maybe someone to go to Springfield, Ohio or Aurora, Colorado, really anywhere and talk to people, I guess like a man on the street or citizen journalist type person. | ||
| We have had such discussions. | ||
| The Phoenix may be having a meeting later today if I'm not mistaken. | ||
| Yes, we are working on a couple things right now to really expand the scope and the, I would say, the broadness of the show. | ||
| So, you know, I'm here in studio and doing events and things like that, but we want Maybe some more people out on the street and some other people in other places. | ||
| I don't want to give away too much. | ||
| But yeah, we're trying to figure out a couple things. | ||
| You know, one thing that I that I'm really proud of is that I think each year we've we've grown and expanded the show in different ways. | ||
| And, you know, this started as a once a week interview show. | ||
| That's very, very different than it is right now. | ||
| So we want to keep kind of, you know, blazing those new trails and finding out some new places to make this interesting and real. | ||
| Because there's a lot of people talking about politics for a living and clearly you guys are digging it because it's reflective of the numbers. | ||
| Joe Shepard says the Teamsters president gave a speech at the RNC and even though that particular union isn't endorsing anyone officially, internal polling within the Teamsters has Trump up 59.6% to 34%. | ||
| Any thoughts? | ||
| I am not surprised. | ||
| I think it's becoming more and more obvious. | ||
| I think you could just look to those Gutfeld clips where you see Trump being able to talk to regular people in an honest way without changing his accent. | ||
| As Kamala Harris and Hillary Clinton and Elizabeth Warren and Barack Obama, they go to different ethnic groups and they speak in different accents, yet Trump is always Trump. | ||
| And I think regular people Which Teamsters members? | ||
| These are regular dudes, for the most part, right? | ||
| Like, they appreciate that. | ||
| That's why when Trump, you see him go back to New York, and the firefighters love him, and the police love him, working class people love him, and it's a story that they will write incredible things about many, many years from now, about how this orange billionaire with the crazy hair, who, as everyone knows, could freaking disappear and never have to deal with any worldly problem, Oh, he became more of a man of the people than any of the people that purport to care about the people, right? | ||
| He is more of a man of the people than any of the Democrats. | ||
| And the Democrats are constantly telling you about how much they wanna do for you and care for you, and they don't, and they don't. | ||
| So I am not surprised by that 60 to 34, but we shall see. | ||
| Jan Reid says, if Donald Trump can be indicted for inciting an insurrection by the Democrat leadership, then the Republican leadership should indict Biden-Harris for inciting an assassination or two. | ||
| This gets to the rhetoric stuff, and that's what Gutfeld was asking Trump about. | ||
| You want to be very, very careful when you're starting to crack down on people for what they say. | ||
| You know, oh my God, he's a fascist. | ||
| Like, should we start putting people in jail for that? | ||
| I don't think so, but we can at least expose them for what they have done. | ||
| And I think that that probably makes more sense. | ||
| If you want to look into some of the things that Kamala has done, I think if there was anyone out there that was an actual journalist, not a quote unquote journalist, you might want to, what the high hell happened when they got rid of Biden? | ||
| What was her role in that? | ||
| Why is it that we've only had Pelosi leak out a couple things about this? | ||
| And Schumer kind of hints a couple things. | ||
| What did they do? | ||
| They had to involve her because there was no mechanism to get rid of him. | ||
| The only mechanism to get rid of him would have been the 25th amendment, which basically, you know, if he's incapacitated or is not, if he doesn't have the mental wherewithal or physical wherewithal to hold the office of the presidency, but you would need the vice president on board that. | ||
| But they had to involve her. | ||
| That's not a crazy conspiracy. | ||
| How does that not come up? | ||
| Think how, really think how much attention has been put on Biden over these last couple years. | ||
| The President of the United States, in effect, the most powerful man in the world. | ||
| And now he's just complete rear view mirror. | ||
| Like they are burying him at this point, right? | ||
| He's not fully six feet under. | ||
| He's about five feet under and they're starting to bury already while they still got to dig a little bit more. | ||
| That's what they're doing to that guy. | ||
| That would be nice to know. | ||
| But yeah, when it comes to, oh, this person said that and then somebody went to shoot somebody, | ||
| I mean, you have to be very, very careful where you start doing that. | ||
| I think you were being a little tongue in cheek, actually. | ||
| Ozzy Mom says, "Possibly already asked and answered, "but how can we buy your tequila | ||
| "if I live across the country?" | ||
| All right, so the tequila, I am told 100% will be available by Thanksgiving. | ||
| I'm hoping we are able to sell it next month. | ||
| We've got the website ready. | ||
| The pre-sales are ready. | ||
| We're going to have some special things for anyone on Locals that buys it. | ||
| I'll sign some things. | ||
| Everyone will get something signed and a bunch more. | ||
| I cannot wait to share it with you. | ||
| For the beginning, at least the initial launch of the tequila, the first five or 10,000 bottles, | ||
| we're gonna have one warehouse here in Miami. | ||
| It will be shipped to anywhere in the United States. | ||
| So wherever you are in the US, you will be able to get it. | ||
| And we'll probably be in a couple stores, Miami area, that I'm just gonna make friends with some people. | ||
| We've already reached out to a couple of restaurants and stores, | ||
| and you'll be able to get it. | ||
| 'Cause most people buy alcohol, you buy it at a brick and mortar, | ||
| mom and pop shop, or you buy it at Total Wine and Liquor, or BevMo, or whatever your big chain is. | ||
| Getting into all of those stores costs a ton of money. | ||
| I'm putting six figures into this thing. | ||
| I believe in it. | ||
| It is the most exquisite, delicious tequila I've ever tasted. | ||
| I can't wait to have parties here and never have another bottle of tequila. | ||
| Goodbye, casamigos. | ||
| It's not that good in the first place. | ||
| So that was George Clooney's, by the way, so no need to support that. | ||
| Although he sold it for, I think, a cool 500 mil. | ||
| Did he sell it? | ||
| Can you Google that? | ||
| He sold Casamigos for 500 mil, if I'm not mistaken. | ||
| Anyway, yes, so you will be able to buy it online, get it anywhere in the United States, and you will be able to buy it at some places, restaurants and stores here, Miami area, and then we'll go out from there. | ||
| And by the way, if you, you know, I've had a lot of people reach out to me that they'd like to partner with me on this or something. | ||
| We're just trying it on our own first, and then we'll see. | ||
| So... | ||
| He sold it for a billion dollars. | ||
| He sold Casamigos, which is the most average tequila. | ||
| I know you like your Casamigos and soda. | ||
| He's so simple. | ||
| You're such a simple. | ||
| Connor loves it. | ||
| Every time I take these guys out, guys, whatever you want, I don't care. | ||
| Get whatever you want. | ||
| You're a simple man. | ||
| You like Casamigos, club soda, and lime. | ||
| Very simple man, but we're gonna get you. | ||
| Oh, I almost said the name. | ||
| I almost dropped the name. | ||
| But we're gonna switch you over. | ||
| All right, let me take a quick break. | ||

| Lynn Ross says Chris Cuomo made a comment about Trump's attempted assassination on his show on Monday night. | ||
| It actually was a decent response. | ||
| I was surprised. | ||
| So last night I put his show on to see what responses he got. | ||
| It went viral and he was shocked that all the negative comments came from the left. | ||
| Is it possible that Chris may have gotten an awakening? | ||
| He showed some of the tweets and they were nasty. | ||
| No surprise. | ||
| "Did he learn anything or will he just make excuses?" | ||
| Look, I can't, look, I spent that, what, two hours at his condo in New York City. | ||
| We had a pretty good conversation. | ||
| I don't think he sees things like fully clearly, but I'm always trying to be on the side of people | ||
| that are waking up and we always want it to be faster than it is and it never is and all of that stuff. | ||
| I have no idea. | ||
| It should not surprise Chris that if you're gonna say anything about Donald Trump, even something as benign as, oh, maybe he shouldn't be shot, that you're going to get hate. | ||
| But I don't know. | ||
| How do I put this? | ||
| I don't know exactly what's in his mind or in his heart. | ||
| You know, you're on CNN for that amount of time. | ||
| You get so many things wrong. | ||
| You're part of so many of the problems. | ||
| You're trying to come around on it, yet you still need an audience. | ||
| I would say it's a complex place to be in. | ||
| All of that said, if he does keep coming around, that would be a wonderful thing, as it would be for anybody, right? | ||
| It would be anyone that is waking up. | ||
| Everyone wants it. | ||
| Like, you want it with your family members. | ||
| You see a flicker of something, you're like, let me just do this now. | ||
| And sometimes it takes them 10 years. | ||
| Sometimes it takes them two weeks, but you want to be as open to that as possible, as frustrating as it may be. | ||
| Davon says, Dave, how confident are you that the election will be legitimate? | ||
| When the New York Times says to be prepared to wait days for final results, it makes one wonder. | ||
| Deplorable Denver Dave. | ||
| How confident am I? | ||
| Well, first off, yes, the New York Times did just put out an article basically saying that we will not know the results for days. | ||
| So it does seem like we're being peppered with nonsense around, oh, a pipe might burst in Philadelphia and then who knows what happens. | ||
| Look, it is unbelievably important that we know the winner of the election that night. | ||
| We cannot do this thing where election day now becomes election month or election three months. | ||
| It is banana republic level stuff. | ||
| If for no other reason that it makes everyone start questioning the system. | ||
| It doesn't matter which side of it you're on. | ||
| You will start questioning the system and that is completely legit. | ||
| So your question was how confident am I? | ||
| Not, I mean, I have things to say, I guess, but I'm not incredibly confident that we will know that night or feel that the results are legit. | ||
| But I would just, I would remind you of a clip that we played two weeks ago or so on the show of Brett Weinstein on Joe Rogan's podcast, where he said, you know, basically, you know, there's always like a cheap margin, and we all kind of know this, right? | ||
| Like, think about it, you're 12 years old, you're playing Monopoly with your friends. | ||
| There's like a little cheat margin. | ||
| You might be able to pull a little something out of the bank when they're not paying attention, but you can't pull all of the $100 bills, right? | ||
| Then they kind of get it. | ||
| So we have to overwhelm the system, and I do think there's a chance of that. | ||
| I don't know all the ways they can cheat, and I'm always worried about the things that I don't know, right? | ||
| It's not the few ways you can think of. | ||
| Oh, they might do this or voting, you know, mail in this. | ||
| It's all the other stuff, right? | ||
| But if the system is overwhelmed, I guess that gives you the best choice. | ||
| But the fact that we even have to discuss that now, and a lot of people do think it, It's a problem. | ||
| You know, we only have a system, a system can only work if enough people believe | ||
| that the system is legit. | ||
| Like the belief that it's legit is in a weird way, what it, what gives it legitimacy, right? | ||
| And if people don't believe in it, where do you end up? | ||
| Gina Sister says, or Gina Sister says, I'm tired of the Harris ads claiming Trump's plan will cause middle-class families to pay an extra 4,000 bucks. | ||
| I'm in Pennsylvania, we're inundated with lying rhetoric. | ||
| Can't the Trump campaign do an ad countering these claims directly? | ||
| Well, first off, I don't know exactly the ad you're talking about, but implying that somehow under a Trump economy, you're gonna be paying $4,000 more in taxes or whatever isn't crazy. | ||
| We know, we have all the evidence we need to see If you look at the first half of Trump presidency, pre-COVID, what was happening with the economy, right? | ||
| The economy was booming. | ||
| We had virtually no unemployment. | ||
| There's always a certain amount built in, right? | ||
| But unemployment was going down. | ||
| We know about black unemployment and Latino unemployment and all that. | ||
| The stock market was doing great. | ||
| Now, the stock market's actually doing pretty well right now, but the price of goods was lower. | ||
| There weren't, even now, I'm trying to buy an outdoor couch right now. | ||
| The supply chain is still not right. | ||
| I was trying to buy an outdoor couch yesterday. | ||
| Adi can verify this. | ||
| And there was a 17-week wait on a couch that I wanted to buy. | ||
| I think it was from West Elm. | ||
| How does that make any sense? | ||
| We did not have that. | ||
| So the system is still corroded right now. | ||
| Maybe some of that is residue from COVID or who knows what else. | ||
| But more than anything else, Donald Trump does not want to raise your taxes. | ||
| And when you have more of your money, Or he doesn't want to do things like the Inflation Reduction Act, which Joe Biden accidentally said was actually a climate change bill. | ||
| And when they dump all this money into the system, it makes money worth less. | ||
| Like all of this is all the stuff that everyone should have learned in like 11th grade economics. | ||
| Like you didn't even have to go to college to know that stuff. | ||
| Like it's supply and demand kind of stuff. | ||
| So of course it's nonsense. | ||
| And your question was, can Trump do anything to counter those ads? | ||
| You know, I don't know who's really paying attention to ads anymore. | ||
| They're infuriating to watch. | ||
| Completely infuriating to watch. | ||
| But the best I think he can do is just keep messaging it right and getting surrogates out there to message it right and everything else. | ||
| I don't know if an ad is a solution to an ad. | ||
| Tony Allegra says, what old comedy specials or comedians do you default to when you need a laugh? | ||
| And on the flip side, who are the current or up and coming comics that are pushing the comedic envelope today? | ||
| Well, in terms of what I'm watching, I mean, it's Seinfeld on Netflix and I watch The Office on the plane, like, that's that. | ||
| Old comics, like, to me the best, I know he turned out to be a serial rapist and I'm sorry about that, but the best stand-up special ever is Bill Cosby himself, 1983. | ||
| I was seven years old, I saw it for the first time, it changed my life. | ||
| I was like, oh my god, this is the funniest thing ever, like, why wouldn't you want to be funny? | ||
| Some other greats, Bill Maher has had, you know, he's had at least probably 20 HBO specials at this point. | ||
| I'd say five or six of them are absolute gems. | ||
| George Carlin, can you check the name of his last HBO special? | ||
| Was it It's Bad For Ya? | ||
| His last HBO special was only a few months before he died. | ||
| And I've talked to his daughter, Kelly Carlin, and it sounds like he really knew his health was failing. | ||
| It's called It's Bad For Ya. | ||
| It is a wonderful, I mean, he had, you know, he's the king, the true king of comedy, I think, but that last special, It seemed like he knew it might be his last, and he's just wrapping it up in his just utterly brilliant way. | ||
| If you have not seen that, you should absolutely see that. | ||
| I don't know about up-and-coming comics. | ||
| You know, we play clips of some podcasters that are pretty good. | ||
| I'm a little out of the loop on that kind of thing. | ||
| I'm curious, who do you guys like now? | ||
| Glenn J61 says the Democrats have been high on power for the past nearly four years and they're unwilling to take a chance on Mr. Trump regaining the White House. | ||
| They've been trying to take him out through the court system, cheating, and or convince uninformed voters that he's evil and or wants to be a dictator. | ||
| I'm nearly certain that people connected to the current administration or their campaign have tipped off both would-be assassins the best time and location to do their dirty work. | ||
| I'm not a conspiracy theorist, but I believe they won't quit trying until they finally accomplish their goal. | ||
| I don't have any more inside information on this than you. | ||
| There are a lot of people that think there's just too many questions related to these two shootings. | ||
| How the hell did that kid get on that roof? | ||
| Why was he not seen? | ||
| How long did the, did the agent see him before he shot him? | ||
| I'm talking about assassination attempt number one. | ||
| For this other one, it's like they knew Trump was at the golf course. | ||
| How was there not more secret service and an advanced prep? | ||
| So I don't, yes, we all end up being conspiracy theories theorists because none, None of this seemingly makes sense. | ||
| You know, we took a video clip out of the show today that apparently at Trump's rally yesterday in Arizona, about 20 people got sick with something out of nowhere. | ||
| We took it out because I just don't have more information on it at this point. | ||
| But like, was that something? | ||
| Like, we just don't know. | ||
| I would just hearken you back to the guy that we just showed you on Gutfeld. | ||
| He's still out there doing it. | ||
| And that's what they fear the most. | ||
| And maybe that's why they're pulling all of these tricks and everything else. | ||
| But they haven't got him with the assassinations. | ||
| They haven't got him on the legal end of things. | ||
| The court cases or the getting him off ballots hasn't worked. | ||
| So he's still here. | ||
| So use a little of that as fuel. | ||
| Sarah J. Conner. | ||
| Could this be Sarah J. Conner from Terminator? | ||
| Whoa. | ||
| Hey Dave, this question seems a little, wasn't her name Sarah J. Connor? | ||
| I think it was actually Sarah. | ||
| What if it's her? | ||
| Hey Dave, is Skynet turning on? | ||
| This question seems a little less relevant, but why do you take off August specifically and why not March or April? | ||
| Thanks for all you do. | ||
| That's a good question, actually. | ||
| You know, August, it seems to me that if there's ever a time that things slow down, that it would be August, right? | ||
| that people, even let's put aside like the political machinery for a second, | ||
| you know, kids are out of school in the summer, people take vacations in the summer. | ||
| So I felt like if there was ever a month that I wasn't gonna do politics, | ||
| that it wouldn't be important every day to be on here or that the other part is that I really wouldn't want | ||
| you guys to be on here, like we put up some content, but I want everybody to kind of escape | ||
| to the best of their ability. | ||
| So that's why I chose August originally, like, and it's just kind of worked with that. | ||
| That if there's one month you could do it, and ironically, you know, this past year we had the convention, the Democrat convention, so you're going to have that every couple years, obviously, where it gets pretty political, and I guess this was one of those years. | ||
| But again, I just left for a month, and I came back, and the world kept going, and here we are. | ||
| And yes, it is Sarah J. Conner. | ||
| If you came back from the future, if there's anything else you want to warn me, please do let me know. | ||
| Vinay Patel says, should Donald Trump hide in a Mexican forest until election day or is he safe and secure under DeSantis's jurisdiction in Florida? | ||
| Well, look, if there's a place to be safe, it is Florida. | ||
| DeSantis is doing his own investigation into what happened because obviously this last assassination attempt was here in Florida in West Palm. | ||
| If Trump does want to go to a Mexican jungle, I can recommend one because that's where I spent a good portion of my August, but he just would not do that. | ||
| He wants to be, there is just no sign in the guy That he has any fear related to any of this. | ||
| Remember, that first assassination attempt, the man's got blood dripping down his face. | ||
| He's tackled by Secret Service. | ||
| Literally, his shoes fell off because he was tackled. | ||
| His first inclination was, get my shoes, get my shoes, and then that fight, fight, fight thing, like his wherewithal. | ||
| I don't know what that is. | ||
| Can I say that I would be that way if it, God forbid, happened to me? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I have no idea. | ||
| I don't think any of us do. | ||
| But we learned something about that guy that day. | ||
| So I don't think the Mexican forest or the Canadian tundra or anything else is in his future. | ||
| I think he will be out there fighting the entire time. | ||
| Christine says, my question. | ||
| Oh, this is interesting. | ||
| My question. | ||
| My family of origin are strong Democrats listening only to the mainstream mess. | ||
| When we touch on anything political, it's like touching a stovetop burning. | ||
| Instant, powerful tension. | ||
| I back away. | ||
| Thank goodness I don't live with them, but I do visit. | ||
| They are respectful and shut off the TV, but it's there if you know what I mean. | ||
| What would your piece of advice that you could give me to adopt a small step forward? | ||
| Or should I just leave it alone and just walk away? | ||
| But I kind of feel like we all need to start broaching it a little bit. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| What was her name again? | ||
| What was it, Christine? | ||
| Christine, this is of all questions that I ever get, this is always the toughest one. | ||
| I have versions of it in my family. | ||
| I have versions of it with friends. | ||
| You know, I was involved in some nonsense a couple weeks ago that became national news and the amount of people that Like, you know, we're going after me and everything else. | ||
| Then an awful lot of people supporting me, and now it's all cleaned up and it's fine. | ||
| But with the family stuff, it's particularly difficult. | ||
| And there is a very weird asymmetry with this stuff. | ||
| I know that conservative-leaning people Because we don't think politics is everything. | ||
| And even for me, someone that I love politics, I love culture, I love doing this, I love talking about this stuff and all that, and because of the nature of what I do, everywhere I go people want to talk about that. | ||
| But when I'm with my family, I don't really want to talk about it. | ||
| You know, like there are times when we can do it, and my family I used to be very, very good at talking politics, but politics has gotten so hot that you don't want to, if you, you know, for all of us that, if you live in different places and you get together only a couple of times a year, do you want to be at the table talking about Trump and Kamala Harris fighting over this or that or screaming about abortion or anything else? | ||
| And those of us that, again, are conservative leaning, we generally don't need to do it all the time. | ||
| It's not the sum totality of our existence. | ||
| The more liberal-leaning people these days, they want to get it in all the time. | ||
| They do start thinking you're evil if you're not like them. | ||
| And it's very hard to balance that. | ||
| So I would say that... | ||
| The only way that you can deal with it is tolerate it as much as you possibly can. | ||
| Don't go in guns blazing, but you're not also there to be abused. | ||
| So if every time you go to dinner, every time you go to a family event or a holiday, | ||
| you're just getting bludgeoned, well then you have to think about it differently. | ||
| But you have to do your best, and I do it, and I know many other people that do it. | ||
| You know, it's like, okay, all right, oh, you have your opinions on that, that's great. | ||
| Anything else going on in your life? | ||
| Do you have kids? | ||
| How are they doing? | ||
| There are ways to get out of some of these things, but it is increasingly difficult, | ||
| and it's really, really tough, and I wish y'all a lot of luck, I really do. | ||
| All right, let's continue on the other side with some comments and future questions | ||
| from the Rubin Report Locals community. | ||
| So we'll have a postgame show in about 30 seconds. | ||
| I believe we have an interesting, I'm told, I didn't see this one, but I'm told it's an interesting cold close for you and we'll see you on Locals in just a second. | ||
