My stocks.
See how the stocks are doing today.
See if...
What?
Pretty good day in the stock market.
Okay.
Well, let's do a show.
What do you think?
Are you in the mood today?
I'm in the mood.
Let's get our comments going here, and then we're going to have the show of shows.
Because, ladies and gentlemen, the golden age begins now.
Dance like Trump!
Dance like Trump.
Good morning, everybody, and welcome to Coffee with Scott Adams.
The best thing that'll ever happen to you in your entire life.
And that includes last night.
Made a lot of you pretty, pretty happy.
But if you'd like to take your experience up to levels that nobody can even understand with their tiny, shiny human brains, all you need for that is a copper mug or a glass, a tank or a gel, a canteen jug or a flask, a vessel of any kind.
Fill it with your favorite liquid.
I like coffee.
And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure, the dopamine hit of the day, the thing that makes everything better.
It's called, that's right, the simultaneous sip.
Ladies and gentlemen, if you don't mind, I'm going to indulge a second sip to victory, to the golden age.
Here's to you, voters.
Oh, that's good.
Oh, that is so, so good.
Well, do you want to take a moment?
did you know there's a study from Baylor University that says that sleeping even 45 extra minutes can make you have better feelings of gratitude, flourishing, resilience, and pro-social behavior?
So if you were going to sign on today, hoping to see a show in which I would be displaying some, let's see, gratitude, flourishing, resilience, and pro-social behavior, Well, I just have to tell you, I really didn't get 46 minutes of extra sleep last night, and neither did you.
And yet, miraculously, I'm in a terrific mood and feeling very gracious, very full of gratitude, mostly for you, mostly for you.
Well, who is the happiest man in the entire world today?
That's right, Joe Biden.
Trump's pretty happy.
I think most Trump supporters are pretty happy.
J.D. Vance, pretty happy.
But the happiest person in the world, Joe Biden.
Now, I'm going to try not to be too much of a jerk today.
Because I do think that a little bit of social unity is in order.
I wouldn't mind a little social unity, just a little bit.
But we're going to enjoy ourselves today.
And I think the Democrats are not going to be watching this show, and it won't hurt them a bit.
But if you don't mind, we're going to revel a little bit.
Just a little bit of reveling.
We're going to be subtle about it.
But boy, are we going to enjoy our revel.
I think I've been telling you for some time now that the most interesting story is what usually happens.
If you're looking to predict the future, figure out what would make the best story.
If it were a movie or a book, what would be the best ending?
And miraculously...
That is often the actual ending.
So sure enough, as I've been predicting now for several years, Trump was in for the best third act of all time.
Now, the third act is a movie structure reference, where the third act is where everything is impossible.
There's no way, no way the hero of your movie could possibly survive this situation.
Do you know what that was?
That was January 6th.
That was a situation which, when the fake news was done with him and the lawyers were done with him and the impeachers were done with him, there was no way.
No possible way.
No.
No way.
Stop it.
There was no way anybody, under any circumstance, could possibly come back from the January 6th debacle and become The 47th President of the United States.
And remember what I said to you?
I said to you, it's not enough.
That's not enough.
That's a good movie, but it's not a great movie.
A great movie would be that the results of this year...
And or the observers and the lawyers watching everything found out for sure that 2020 had been a stolen election.
That's the third act.
You think that winning the election is the third act?
Well, it is.
But the real third act is where you're surprised beyond just that he survived.
Now, you're seeing a lot of reports that are saying, hey, What happened to all those Biden voters?
They seem to have just disappeared.
Other people are saying, like me, I'm saying this this morning, hey, wasn't there supposed to be a part where the votes were counted overnight and then there'd be a large dump of votes from some place we weren't sure about, on trucks we weren't clear about, with drivers who wouldn't say who they worked for?
Weren't we all expecting that?
Except one thing that was different this time is that the RNC, Laura Trump and Michael Watley, seem to have done a really good job in threatening people with consequences, in fielding an actual army of lawyers, and watching everything that needed to be watched.
Is it possible, and I'm not willing to say that this is true yet, is it possible that the rigging could have happened if not for all the watching?
Is it possible that this time nobody tried?
Is it possible that we're so bad at counting That we think 20 million voters are missing, that somehow we're magically there for Biden, but now they're not.
How do you explain exactly that the first woman of color candidate for president, who was, you know, knocking on the door, how do we explain she got fewer votes than old man Joe Biden?
How do you really do that?
And that's after January 6th.
That's after all the accusations about Trump.
How do you still come up that short?
Well, it's too early to say that the cheat of 2020 has been revealed.
I think Steve Bannon is saying it.
I think he's saying it's confirmed.
I believe he's looking at Pennsylvania in particular.
To say, there's no way that Kamala Harris got this many votes if it's also true that Biden got that many votes a few years before.
So, we're on the border.
We're on the cusp of the greatest third-act comeback of all time.
Now, already it might be the greatest.
Even if there's nothing about 2020 that we find out that's, you know, sketchy.
Even without it, it is still the greatest comeback in politics that I think we've ever seen.
It's truly amazing.
And there's so much to say about it.
But I'm going to start with my favorite post on X. You ready?
This is from The Persistence, Scott Pressler.
This was last night.
Mr.
Mr. President, I'm pleased to share that we have delivered Pennsylvania.
Wow.
Wow.
It got me.
Whew.
with you.
Thank you.
Yeah, that was quite a moment, wasn't it?
Quite a moment.
I was doing okay until then.
I have to admit.
I was doing okay.
But...
That was a hell of a thing.
So Trump gave his speech, acceptance speech, I guess you'd call it kind of official.
So, And he said this will truly be the golden age.
I'm sorry.
That caught me off guard.
I wasn't expecting that.
And Trump tells us we don't have to live this way, and that the golden age is going to begin.
Maybe it will.
Maybe it will.
I kind of feel it.
I've been calling for the golden age for a while, but we got kind of sidetracked by that whole pandemic thing, and then that whole election that looked a little weird.
So apparently the GOP Republicans made big gains with non-white voters.
Especially black male voters.
So his share grew up to 15% from 8% in 2020, according to AP VoteCast.
But Trump had a huge jump with Hispanics as well.
He won 41% of the Hispanic vote.
He set a record.
How do you explain that the mainstream media has been nonstop, Trump's a racist against brown people, and he just won an historic vote with the help of brown people?
How exactly does that make sense?
Well, maybe you should listen to Scott.
Because there's something I've been telling you for a while.
One of my advantages of living in California is I have pretty close contact almost every day with the immigrant community from south of the border.
And what I can tell you that pretty much everybody who has any contact with that group can tell you, they're not only a terrific group of people, demographic-wise, you would love to have them as your friends and neighbors, But they're very Republican, just by nature.
They like to work.
They like their families.
They like to follow the rules.
And they like their gods.
God, just one, I guess.
And it didn't surprise me to find out that the Hispanic community was way more likely to support Trump than the media was telling you should have been the case.
And then I also imagine that at least the men of all races would see through this.
And when I say see through it, I mean the media kind of cover story for everything, the fake face that the media puts on everything.
And I believe that men have an interior biological trigger.
That is not triggered by small problems.
Have you ever noticed that men are not triggered by small problems?
Like maybe we don't tidy up?
Small problem.
But when the big problems happen, your car is on fire and you're trapped in it, there is going to be a man in a pickup truck who is going to stop and he's going to reach his hairy arm into your car and Unlock your seatbelt and drag you out at the risk of great personal destruction.
Because that's just how we're wired.
If it's important, we show up.
If it's not that important and you've got it covered, well, you've got it covered.
Sort of the male binary world.
By binary, I mean, is this my problem?
If it's not my problem, it's not my problem.
If it is my problem, tell me who I have to kill.
Right?
I'm speaking figuratively, not actually kill.
So here's what I think.
I think the country as a whole saw that we were heading toward a cliff, the type that we can't recover from.
And I think that when men got triggered internally, each person individually, I don't think it was any one thing.
I don't think it was Trump.
I don't think it was any one person.
I think that men just one by one got triggered and they said, wait a minute.
Is everything going to fall apart?
This isn't like regular times, is it?
This is the time I have to show up.
I, for the first time in my life, made a conscious effort to get low-perpensity people to vote.
in my personal circle and also on you know here on live stream I was successful so people did report back that they voted and they would not have otherwise voted so the low propensities came through for me and and even reported back now many of you had the same situation Both men and women, of course.
But I think men were maybe the story here.
Because I think that they were triggered because this looked like an existential threat, not just another day of politics.
And so the men bucked the women in their own groups to some extent and showed up.
Now what I don't know yet...
is if it was the Trump-supporting men who were lying to pollsters or if they were just the hardest to reach by pollsters because they were less likely to answer the phone or something.
I don't know.
So we don't know exactly why the polling didn't quite match the outcomes.
I will note, because I always mention Rasmussen, that Rasmussen had Trump winning Pretty handily, and he won by something pretty close to their prediction.
And so Rasmussen, good for you.
Congratulations.
And I say that because I mention their polls quite often, so it's good to know that they got the right answer, that Trump would win, and by about the right amount.
And here's what I look forward to more than anything.
I'm really looking forward to the peaceful transfer of power.
Aren't you?
Because while Trump was teaching half of the country how to win, the Democrats were teaching us how to lose.
It seemed like every day they'd say, no, no, no, in 2020 you didn't lose right.
What you should have done is immediately surrendered and just rolled over And quit.
And then, this is important, after you lose, then you should never, ever be in political life again.
Now, that's some good advice on how to lose.
And for four years now, since January 6, 2021, Democrats have been teaching us, and I appreciate their wise counsel, how to lose in the best possible way.
And now, and this is kind of lucky, really, since they've taught us how to lose and how to peacefully transfer power and how to leave public life forever, I'm looking forward to their peaceful transfer of power.
In fact, it turns out that Kamala Harris, in her role as vice president, will be the one to certify the landslide election of Trump.
And that doesn't get any better.
Apparently there was a rule change that she has to certify.
She doesn't have a choice.
It's not optional.
Now it's just theatrical.
So yeah, we're going to find out the best way to lose taught to us by the people who've now got some good experience at it.
Kamala Harris apparently gave a talk in which she warned of Trump's fascism.
Well, I don't think she learned anything.
Do you think the Democrats have learned anything?
Kamala Harris gives an ending speech warning about Trump's fascism.
Hmm.
So here's what I think.
I think we might be seeing the total collapse of the Democrat Party.
If you watched any of the fun of the, let's say, MSNBC or CNN finding out that they'd lost possibly everything, we don't know about the House.
The House could still go to the Republicans too.
And then that's a different situation.
And that could happen.
We don't know yet.
But...
It was really obvious that the Democrats didn't know why things went wrong this time.
And it was hilarious seeing all the reasons.
But I'm going to talk about some of the many reasons.
And I think maybe it's just a whole bunch of little things.
But we'll see.
But here's one of the things that I don't think the Democrats saw coming.
Well, here's what I think.
I think that Trump very smartly avoided the mainstream media more than usual and went to the podcast world Which the Democrats do not have a hold on.
So the mainstream programmed world is sort of a, we think, probably a CIA manipulated, Democrat manipulated stuff.
So it's just nothing but nonstop hoaxes.
But if you get to the podcast, I mean, some of them have some hoaxes too, but you're missing the whole censorship, you know, brainwashing regime.
And if it's true that...
Trump just made a model of that by using the podcast as really his closing argument.
I think that could destroy the Democrats forever because their entire plan depends on being able to brainwash the public with a non-stop barrage of bullshit.
Now, I've got a little whiteboard to Presentation for you, because you're going to need this.
So you might want to clip this later.
I might make a clip of it.
But some of you are going to wake up and find out that people in your life, let's say young people who are supporting Kamala Harris, are going to wonder, why did Hitler just get elected?
And you're going to have to answer that question.
So rather than answering it yourself, I thought I would do it for you, and then you can just show the video to the, let's say, the young people in your family.
How is it that everybody knew he was Hitler?
Everybody knew.
We all saw it.
We saw him trying to steal democracy with our own eyes and stuff.
So how could he possibly get elected?
I give you the answer to that.
And I'll give you the answer using one anecdote that can be generalized.
I'm surprised.
And this is what I saw just the other day.
You may know that J.D. Vance, in the closing days of the campaign, was using some aggressive hyperbole in a rally of speech, and he said that The Republicans were going to take out the trash, and then he clarified the trash is Kamala Harris.
Now, you could say to yourself, or even out loud, well, that's not nice.
Don't call anybody trash.
But I would point out that in the political context, they're calling each other fascists and Hitler and stuff, so they call each other stuff.
And trash is not the worst thing, and it sounded like it was just a rhetorical flourish because he was talking about trash in the first place, so he just threw her in there.
Now, what you would notice about this, even if you don't like that kind of discourse, that he was talking about exactly...
One person.
He did not say anybody else was trash.
He said one person.
And if you're being reasonable about it, when he said trash, he meant policies and performance, right?
I'm pretty sure if you held him down and said, do you mean that the human being called Kamala Harris is not worth as much as other human beings?
I'm pretty sure he would say, I'm not a mind reader, But I'm pretty sure J.D. Vance would say something like, no, no, everybody's all people have value.
Just the job she's doing is kind of trash, so we want to take out the trash.
So that's what he really said in the real world.
And then I turned to MSNBC and I see one of their actresses, who couldn't possibly have any other role except being an actress, says he called women trash.
But because that didn't happen, and you don't want somebody to go check that it didn't happen, they sell it with their face and with their attitude.
So this is Nicole Wallace telling you what J.D. Vance said.
He, I, he's, he's calling all women trash.
So, of course, that didn't happen.
If it did happen, that'd be terrible.
I mean, I wouldn't support that at all.
But the people who watch MSNBC, they don't really go check the original source.
They just believe that they're watching real news.
And then that gets into their empty heads, which didn't have anything else in it.
And then they think that they know something.
Now, here's the part that's hard to explain to the young person.
This is not a weird situation that I had to look really hard to find.
This is all the news, all the time.
If you haven't yet learned that the news is fake, intentionally, it's not accidentally, it's not making mistakes, MSNBC is intentionally a propaganda network.
That's primarily what it is.
Now, you could say the same thing about Fox News.
The only thing I defend about Fox News is, besides the fact that their production is much better, they have much better producers and talent, that they're transparent about it.
At least on Fox News, people, you know, wink and smile and, you know, they tell you that they like President Trump.
And then the news, you know, the Brett Baier part is separate from that.
But if you were watching MSNBC and you had not been informed that the news is not real and hasn't been real for a long time, maybe ever, you would think that you would learn something because you turned on the news and But in fact, all of the news is fake.
The political news.
If you have a hurricane, the hurricane's probably true.
But the political news, it's all made up.
And it has been for a very long time.
So, the reason that Hiller got elected is that there was never a Hiller.
It's the easiest explanation.
It was never Hiller.
That was purely something that somebody was saying.
And it was just to win an election and gain power and get you money.
Now, who was it who figured out that the messaging was fake?
Well, I don't know if there's a male-female difference in how easily you can be bamboozled by bullshit.
There's probably no difference.
It's probably not that.
But it does seem to me that the regular news, the news that you sit down and you watch while you're eating your snack on the couch, Young people are not watching that so much, nor are older people watching it as much.
Instead, they're watching social media and X, and they're seeing what Elon Musk is doing, and they're seeing what the podcasters are doing, and what did Joe Rogan say?
So suddenly, that hold that the media had where they could lie to you Over and over again.
It was just non-stop hoaxes over and over.
It doesn't have the same effect as it did even four years ago.
Just think of how the podcast landscape has grown in four years.
Now, because conservative voices didn't really have this home where you could get the $5 million a year paycheck just for being on TV, they had to create their own homes.
So they created Homes on Rumble.
You've got Dan Bongino.
You've got, you know, PBD. You've got a whole bunch of content that at least is friendly to the right, if not outright leaning to the right.
So it could be that the Democrat Party having such terrible policies, in my opinion, they have policies that are actually nonsense because they don't take into account human behavior or incentives or anything.
That none of that could even get past the first gate if they didn't have absolute total control of the brainwashing mechanism of the news.
And now it appears that they have less than full control of that, which means that the new battleground is the podcast space.
And if Elon Musk had not rescued X, I don't believe any of this was possible.
I don't believe the podcasters would be so successful because X is partly how you promote yourself.
And I don't think the free speech would have gotten to the point where people would have understood how many hoaxes have been applied to them.
But it made me feel good to hear Elon Musk talk about nonstop hoaxes and using the word hoax.
Because in the old days, you just say, oh, the other side is saying things that aren't true.
And that just feels like wind whistling past you.
But if you say these are nonstop hoaxes, That sort of gets your attention.
What do you mean it's a hoax?
You have to organize a hoax.
The other stuff can just be mistakes.
But a hoax is organized.
And these are all organized hoaxes.
They're all organized.
So that's new.
And only the podcast world and the world on X and what I call the internet dads.
They're not all dads.
Some are Megyn Kelly and a number of other superstars.
But It does seem like the adult supervision.
Let's call it that.
I think the adult supervision returned in the form of podcasts because they were completely shut out of the normal fake news world.
So, surprise!
And I think it's hilarious that MSNBC, their hosts, they acted like they couldn't tell why Harris lost.
Could they really not tell?
And they couldn't tell that they were the problem.
Imagine if they ran a real candidate and they just told the truth.
You don't think you could have beaten Trump?
I mean, Trump's a monster.
I mean, he's hard to beat.
But you don't think if you'd at least tried with a regular politician, somebody who had actual skills and stuff like that, I don't know.
Maybe that could have taken him somewhere.
But instead, They just prop up the puppet, they fill the world with hoaxes, and then they wonder why we didn't fall for them.
It's because of the podcasters.
It's because of X. It might be because of TikTok, which would be funny.
Anyway, it looks like Republicans picked up the Senate as well.
So that would be the presidency, the Senate...
The courts, Supreme Courts, and maybe, maybe the House.
That's about as hard as you can win.
Keith Olbermann, of course, is claiming Russia stole the election again.
MSNBC's host Joy Reid, she's blaming white women for missing a second opportunity to address the patriarchy.
At no time does Joy Reid say, hey, maybe the problem is me.
Maybe if you keep calling somebody Hitler and then he goes to the black barbershop and works at McDonald's and takes a bullet for you and you don't see any Hitler stuff and he does the first step thing for prisoners and he does, you know, opportunity zones or whatever it is in black neighborhoods and he funds the HB, the historically black colleges, maybe it's hard to keep the hoax up.
Maybe the hoax just couldn't stand the pressure of facts.
But everybody's got an opinion.
I'm still waiting to find out if men were the big difference.
Some are saying that the big difference is that women underperformed, as opposed to men showed up.
All right.
Thank you.
Just looking at one comment there.
Alright, so here's some other reasons that people gave.
There was some thought that men wouldn't vote for women, especially black men.
Do you think that's the reason that black men did not vote for Kamala Harris, is that she's a woman?
Do you think that was the big reason?
It's probably a little bit of a reason.
You know, maybe a little bit.
But it can't be more than the number who voted because she is a woman.
Do you think the number of people who wouldn't vote for her because she is a woman, do you think that number is bigger than the number who voted for her just because she is a woman?
Because I watched these street interviews, and when people on the street were asked, they quite often said, because she is a woman.
I don't know.
It seems like an advantage to me.
So on MSNBC, they're still trying to sell you on the notion that if you've got somebody who has reached the level of senator and vice president, and they're both a woman and a person of color, that that's all a disadvantage.
In America, in 2024, MSNBC trying to sell their final hoax that it's a disadvantage To be so qualified that you've been an attorney general, you've been a senator, you've been a vice president.
I mean, that's a lot of qualifications.
And if you add on top of that black and female, you tell me that it shouldn't be a landslide in her favor?
Do you know if you had replaced her with anybody capable, it would have been a landslide.
It really, it was her capability.
So it's the big games with the non-white voters.
That's a big part of the story.
I saw some people suggesting that Tim Walsh Might have been dragging her down.
Travis, what's his first name?
Clay Travis was asking if Walsh was the worst VP pick ever.
Now, of course, I like that framing because it makes you think past the sale.
But was he the worst ever?
No.
I'll tell you, he was the worst ever if you're trying to get men.
The videos of him prancing...
It should have killed her for everybody who had a penis.
It's like, what the hell is going on there?
Well, not everybody, but at least the heterosexual men who are looking at him.
And again, if he were just flat-out gay, I don't think it would have hurt him at all.
It might have been a plus.
But if you prance, but you're acting like you're the manly one and you're more manly than the other side, don't prance.
And I have no problem with prancing, by the way.
I'm pro-prancing, but just if that's who you are.
If who you are is a prancer and that fits your whole personality and your sexual preference, great.
I like people who are authentic.
But he didn't come off as authentic, did he?
There was something inauthentic about it.
And same with Harris.
Harris seems terribly inauthentic.
And I think that when we talk about who's lying the most, That's where things get confusing.
Because Trump is the most authentic character we've ever seen.
He's always the same.
No matter who he talks to, it's the same message.
He doesn't change.
He didn't modify too much to run again.
Maybe took a little edge off or something.
No big deal.
Oh, let's see what...
I want to see this comment.
No, I can't see it.
So anyway, I think that Kamala Harris insulting citizens probably had something to do with it.
Inflation and the price of groceries had something to do with it.
There's the thought that Democrats were ignoring some of the working Americans, especially the men.
That's definitely part of it.
They're also saying that the Democrat strategy needs to be looked at.
So all the smart Democrats are looking at each other and saying, who made the mistake here?
Who made the mistake?
And they're all pretty sure it was somebody else.
Somebody else.
But I think the story is men.
Because it's not just a story of men who were But I think that, I think Trump's pirate ship, obviously Tulsi Gabbard's an important part, but I think RFK Jr.
and Vivek and JD Vance and Elon, they all have a very male perspective.
And I think the country was just starving for it.
Like the country was starving for some kind of male leadership.
Now here's something that I can say about men that I don't know about women.
So it might be the same with women.
I don't know.
I just couldn't speak to it.
But my take on men is that men either need to be a leader or to know who the leader is.
And those are the two things that make men comfortable.
If we don't know who the leader is and we're not the leader, we're not really comfortable.
I don't know if that works the same with women.
It might be a different situation.
But with Trump, especially when he assembled his pirate ship, you had male leadership.
Elon, I think, was certainly the tip of the spear.
But RFK Jr.
is very manly for a Democrat, right?
You know, both in his physique and in his attitude and just bravery.
So there was a whole bunch of male leadership that was coming from everything from Joe Rogan to other podcasters to Mike Cernovich to me.
And I think that a lot of men...
And they said, what are we supposed to do?
And the internet parents, let's say, to keep it less sexist, said, this time you need to vote.
But this time voting isn't enough.
When I saw that the...
Here's the first thing that I saw.
When I saw that Republicans had suddenly switched to become early voters, that's when the light went on inside my head.
Because that wasn't just about early voting being better than later voting.
It was about the Republican base taking direction.
That was the big thing.
The thing was that they responded to leadership.
The leadership said, you're in a big hole, I can get you out.
You gotta vote, but that won't be enough.
You're gonna have to go find a low-propensity voter, and you're gonna have to drag them to the voting booth.
I heard countless stories of people who did exactly that.
Now, how many of you were directly or indirectly involved in getting a low-propensity voter to go vote?
Because that was a very specific direction from a group of leaders who I think established their leadership.
And a lot of that was Trump getting shot in the ear, right?
Again, men respond to bravery and real leadership.
And by the time the ear got shot and the pirate ship formed and then Elon jumps on, well, by that time, The leadership was clear.
The men who were there to protect you, and I think everybody who voted for Trump believes he's there to protect.
I think everybody thinks the same of Elon, except the left, of course.
But on the voting political right, seeing Elon go all in was phenomenal.
Do you realize that Elon bet everything on this?
He bet everything.
His businesses, I think, would have been dismantled and he could have ended up in jail if things were going the other way.
That was one of the bravest things you're ever going to see.
You think Trump is brave?
He made everybody braver.
He made everybody braver.
He made it okay to say, all right, I'm going to vote for Trump.
He made that by his own bravery.
And that level of bravery just makes other men say, oh shit, I gotta lift my game a little bit.
So I'm gonna be a little braver too.
And no one was braver than Musk.
And he's certainly got a history of being the bravest guy in the game over and over again.
Here's what Tucker asked Elon, I think it was last night.
So how much pressure has there been on you to shut down X? And Elon said, well, apart from multiple Democrats saying they want to put me in jail, take away government contracts from my companies, nationalize my companies, deport me as an illegal, and have me arrested for apparently being Putin's best friend, nothing besides those things.
And I would like to say that the other thing that Elon did, that I think David Sachs did, and Chamath, Did on the All In Pod.
And I think some of the other Silicon Valley notables.
And something that I think I did.
And I think Cernovich did.
Which is, we made it safe for smart people to support Trump.
That was the risk that I took.
So the risk that I took...
For the country, because there really wasn't much in it for me, is I would make it safe.
And after nine years of work, it's safe.
You can all come out now.
Well, one of my favorite videos coming out of the aftermath was Eric Abernathy was pointing it out on X. That Jake Tapper was being shown a map of the country, and it was going to show all the counties where Harris did better than Joe Biden, or at least as well as Joe Biden.
And he calls up the map, and it's dark gray.
In other words, there was not one county in the entire United States in which he outperformed Joe Biden's Jake Tapper, quote, Holy smokes, literally nothing?
Literally not one county?
Yes, literally not one county.
Now, do you believe that Joe Biden got all those votes?
If Kamala Harris couldn't beat him in even one county, just one county, not one?
Hmm.
Now, the other question I have is there must not have been a big problem with cheating or illegal aliens voting or even overseas voting.
I suspect the watchers were watching too well so that maybe nobody could get away with it.
I think the watching is the big story here.
We'll never really know.
But I'm willing to revise my opinions about how cheating may have happened in the past.
If there's new information, I'll take it.
But we'll see.
I'm not entirely sure that we're done.
Because it seems to me things are too quiet.
And it seems like the Democrats are not making enough of a complaint.
As if they have a plan.
As if the real plan was, Trump's going to win the election, and then.
So the thing I'm worried about is the, and then, which could be any form of lawfare, who knows.
Now, in theory, all the smart people are saying that Trump's legal problems will either go away or be postponed into the netherworld.
I'm not so sure.
Because remember, Some of them still think they're trying to stop Hitler and save their own jobs and their own lives and everything else.
So if you're telling me that it's not typical to continue with the lawfare while the president is the city president, then I would say to you...
Maybe things won't be typical this time.
So I think Trump is still in mortal danger, both physically, definitely physically, but at least J.D. Vance is there as his backup protection, and that should make a big difference, by the way.
So I think there's going to be more shenanigans.
I don't think it's a clean path to the smooth transfer of power.
I think there will be some legal shenanigans.
Probably it matters who wins the House.
If Republicans win the House, then I think everything's going to be fine.
If they don't, it's still going to be a fight.
Anyway...
One of the things Michael Schellenberger points out, he said this morning, our intelligence community is rotten to the core.
Serious investigations are required.
We need to get to the bottom of the censorship, January 6th, COVID origins, lawfare, weaponization of CIA, FBI, and DHS. We need a Church Committee 2.0.
The people must regain control of our government.
I would agree with that.
At the very least, we need to regain confidence.
So, you know, maybe all of these entities are thoroughly corrupt.
Maybe just a little bit at the top.
But whatever the situation is, I'd sure like to know.
RCP House is one.
So somebody's saying the house is one?
So I think that's a projection, not yet a done deal.
I think it's projected that the Republicans will win.
That would be amazing.
That would be amazing.
In other news, the Houthis have declared a ceasefire.
So let's connect the dots.
Trump gets elected.
And then suddenly the unstoppable Hooties just decided to stop.
And their reason was, oh, it was always a defensive war.
That's what the Hooties said.
The Hooties said, no, it was always just a defensive war.
So now we're done with it.
So we're all good.
We're all good.
We're all good.
We're just kidding.
We're done.
No, we're done.
Stopsees.
No fair.
Do you think that's a coincidence?
Do you think that's a coincidence?
Because I don't.
Because if there was one thing that I thought that Trump could stop sort of right away, it was the Hooties.
I think the Hooties thought he could stop it right away, too.
Because there is some size mother of all bombs that can make that problem end really fast.
It just has to be a big enough bomb.
And we know that Trump will at least threaten him with a big enough bomb.
He's going to say, here's your capital.
Here's my bomb.
What do you want to do?
Well, you know, a ceasefire.
How about a ceasefire?
Excellent idea.
That's an excellent idea.
So, there's some news about processed food being bad for you, but that doesn't feel like the right message for today.
So, ladies and gentlemen, I would like to take a few minutes just to enjoy on X with you.
Let's see if we can make this work.
It'll be amazing.
This is Batwalsh S.
He asked for the people.
Let me make this presentation.
There it is.
These are all the people who are having a hard time.
Let's find a good one.
I can't figure out how to make the sound work on this.
Yes.
Too complicated.
Come on, sound.
Now has a direct, could potentially have a direct line to the Oval Office.
I think this is a big, huge, huge part of the story that it's hard to even digest fully at this moment.
But you have Elon Musk, who owns Twitter X, whatever we're calling it these days, X, who is a dis...
All right.
All right, well, we don't have any good ones here.
Oh, there's a good one.
We'll just leave that one out for a minute.
Well, it seems to me that the Democrats have practiced losing to Trump, and they definitely did not have the same kind of reaction that they had before.
I wonder if they expected it on some level, but we'll watch today to see how crazy people get.
Let's keep an eye on the story of whether or not There were 15 or 20 million more votes for Biden than there were mirages.
I really, really would love to find out that 2020 was BS. That would be fun.
All right.
Does anybody want to have in your comments?
Is there anything you want to enjoy saying?
Candace Owens says, I've never wanted to watch The View more than today.
Same.
I definitely want to watch The View today.
Oh, and Mark Cuban did a very professional and appreciated congratulations to Trump for winning the election.
And I appreciate him.
I like that it was a good fair fight.
Good contest.
And there were smart people on both sides trying really hard, and that makes a big difference.
Unburdened by what is Biden?
um Yeah, Cuban was classy.
Alright.
He said fair and square, huh?
Good.
That's good for him to say that.
How would anybody know if an election was fair on the night of it, the night it happened?
Except it's not a fair fight.
Huh.
Buy coffee for this car behind you at Starbucks?
Maybe.
Yeah, you know, I think we do have some responsibility to not dance too hard on the graves of the losers today.
We can enjoy it.
I do think the golden age has been unleashed.
I have to say there's just this weird feeling to it for me.
I wasn't expecting to know how to feel.
I think I was happier for Scott Pressler than just about anything else.
I love to see somebody put their heart and soul into something, like trying to save the country, which is what Scott Pressler was doing.
And then, of course, he had lots of help with Elon and just lots of help.
But he was such a star.
He always made you feel like as long as he was working in Pennsylvania, it always seemed like Trump could win.
But I don't think you can underestimate how important that was.
Just how you generally felt going into it.
It's like, ah, I think Scott Pressler's got Pennsylvania wrapped up nice.
It looks like he did.
One hell of a job, Scott Pressler.
That one's for the ages.
You will forever be remembered.
It's for the ages.
All right.
Accountability?
Well, we'll see.
It's too early to talk about that.
Charlie Kirk?
Yeah, Charlie Kirk did a lot of great work.
All right, what else?
Mentorships for young black men.
That would be useful.
Although I think AI can get you there almost.
The mentorship stuff.
Maybe some combination of humans and AI. It's God's mercies on us.
Okay.
Who are my friends in high places?
I got lots of friends in high places.
I should interview him?
Well, maybe if I do interviews.
The lectern guy, who wants to take a capital tour with me on election day?
I know my way around.
You know, the other thing that always made me feel confident, I just saw a comment that I'm going to copy from locals, that if you've watched Laura Trump in any of her videos on, say, Instagram, in which she shows her workout, it's like the most aggressive female workout you'll ever see.
She's in such good shape, and she seems like such a predator personality, and I say that in a good way.
Knowing that she was putting together an army with Watley, of course, not by herself, that made me feel very comfortable.
Because you can't really look at Laura Trump and say, there's somebody who's not going to try hard, right?
You take one look at her and you go, okay, whatever you're doing is going to be, you know, you're going to take it to the nth degree.
And it looks like she did.
So sometimes you can judge people's personality by their physique.
And I think her physique screamed, you can't stop me.
And like you could just hear that loud and clear.
Okay, you can't stop me.
Was that a brick wall?
All right, we'll take care of that brick wall.
You know, I just want to spend my time with you and bask in this forever, but I know you have other things to do.
So I'm going to say some words to the locals' subscribers privately.
Thanks for joining.
You've got a lot of people to watch on TV and watch them meltdown so you can enjoy it.
I'm going to go talk to the locals' people privately now.
All right.
