	This is an iHeart podcast.
	Here for our final news roundup and information overload.
	All right, news roundup, information overload hour, 800-941-SHAWN, our number if you want to be a part of the program.
	And in a second, we'll check in with, I think, the best media analyst in the entire country today, and that's our friend Joe Concha.
	First, I want to go to Kevin O'Leary.
	Kevin O'Leary actually did something that very few people in the media seem able to do, and that's ask some tough questions about Kamala Harris, her economic plan.
	My first question is, well, if you're going to fight inflation on day one, what have you been doing the last nearly four years?
	Because her first day happened to be January 20th, 2021.
	It's not January 20th, 2025.
	The second is, you know, how do you explain what would be the largest tax increase in the history of the entire world and our country alone?
	How do you explain raising the corporate tax, which will be passed on to consumers, small business taxes, doubling the capital gains tax, taxing unrealized capital gains?
	Good luck figuring that one out.
	And what it would do to the economy.
	I think it would destroy the economy.
	And if we ever add her Green New Deal that she co-sponsored in the U.S. Senate, which would, and she used or eliminated the filibuster to pass it, that would be the end of capitalism, I say, as we know it.
	Here's Kevin O'Leary.
	In querying about this idea of taxing unrealized capital gains, which would basically destroy the economy and change the way every investor would invest and chase capital out of the country, I've been told, listen, don't worry about it.
	Just be happy.
	There's no way Congress would ever pass that.
	She has to keep saying that to keep her base happy, to bring people up to vote for her.
	But that's not going to happen.
	Don't worry about it.
	These policymakers that are giving me this, just be happy.
	Well, maybe I'm going to have to get happy.
	But right now, I'm not happy.
	And I really, really want some policy.
	I really do.
	And I think the rest of the market does too.
	And that comic gives you some idea about how much angst there is out there.
	If they're saying to Kevin O'Leary, it's not going to happen anyway.
	Then why has she stated very publicly and loudly that these are the positions that she holds?
	You know, the only thing we've gotten a little bit of information on is her economic policy.
	And then every time she gives a new detail, like for example, when she talked about price gauging and went on to explain price controls, everybody criticized it.
	They come back and they say through a spokesperson, oh, never mind.
	She never really meant that.
	But the biggest, I think, contributor to the Harris Walls campaign, that would come from the mob, the mob and the media.
	And, you know, the greatest example of this, David Sachs saying the media is spreading disinformation on a scale that dwarfs whatever Russia would hope to ever accomplish in terms of influence of our election.
	And I agree with this statement.
	They are the biggest contributors to the Harris Walls campaign and nothing but an extension of the Harris Walls press office.
	Listen.
	You bring up these stories about Russian influence or whatever.
	The real influence operation in this country is by the mainstream media.
	They're the ones who are spreading disinformation about the war in Ukraine and so many other issues on a scale that dwarfs what any of these handful of podcasters that most people have never heard of can ever hope to accomplish.
	We have the Kamala files, the Walls files, both of them in their own words, with the most radical positions ever taken by anybody to run for this high office in the history of this country.
	Nobody in the media ever talks about them.
	You know, in the one debate, only one candidate is fact-checked.
	And, you know, forget the real disasters that is Springfield, Ohio, Aurora, Colorado.
	You should see the front cover of the New York Post today about a Venezuelan gang taking over the entire city of New York.
	And that's happening in other towns and cities also across the country.
	You know, don't mention the names of Americans that have been murdered and raped and victims of violent crime by unvetted Harris Biden illegals, over 11.5 million that we know about.
	Never talk about the high costs associated with illegal immigration.
	Forget about the people that they have allowed into this country would terrorize.
	Forget about their promise of amnesty, free sex change operations, free housing, healthcare, education.
	Forget about what everyday Americans are paying at the grocery store or for the price of democracy, as Kamala says, what they have to pay to fill up their cars or pay for electricity or the high interest rates preventing so many Americans from being able to buy a house.
	Forget about our support of the Green New Deal, the elimination of private health care.
	Joe Concha, am I wrong in my analysis?
	John, if there's a number above 100%, I would give you that in terms of you being correct.
	I mean, the media coverage that we've seen, I remember back in 2012, MSNBC, I think it was Pew did a study that showed that they did something like 44 stories on Barack Obama and all were positive.
	And they did 79 stories on Mitt Romney and all were negative.
	But he chalked it up to MSNBC.
	He said, ah, you know, that's just them being them.
	We know who they are.
	Now it seems like everybody's MSNBC.
	I can't tell the difference between MSNBC and ABC that I know.
	I mean, that debate that we saw last two weeks ago now, I guess it's been just incredible that Donald Trump gets 11 fact checks or follow-ups and Kamala Harris gets zero.
	And there wasn't what?
	Not one question on the economy?
	That's insane.
	Not one question on Joe Biden's health and why did you cover it up?
	Not one question about Kamala Harris' time in San Francisco as a prosecutor in that record.
	I mean, these are very germane, relevant questions.
	Of course, it doesn't get asked.
	We know why, because the head of ABC News, her name is Dana Walden, who is probably one of Kamala Harris's closest friend, if not closest friend, literally to the point where she helped set up Kamala Harris with Doug Emhoff, her current husband.
	That debate never, ever should have happened.
	There should have been editorial after editorial saying there's a conflict of interest here.
	But I mean, it's been like this since day one.
	I mean, let's face it, remember that New York magazine cover, Camelot, and it's her on top of the country, basically, and it declares that she's Camelot now.
	I mean, that was insane.
	Time magazine, when they interviewed Kamala Harris for a cover story, she declined to be interviewed for it, and they went ahead and gave her a puff piece anyway.
	Any editor worth his salt or her salt would have said, unless you're going to give us the interview, we're not doing this story.
	But they went ahead and did it anyway.
	And the fact that the media is not demanding that she hold this thing called a press conference, which she hasn't done in five and a half years, not going back to her first time running for president in 2019, not as vice president, and not now.
	So that sets where we are at this point, where we just have a media that they're all MSNBC now.
	They're all taken on an activist mode, and they're doing everything they can to get over the finish line.
	But here's the good news, if you're a Trump supporter, even with all that, you see polls today like Emerson College and The Hills showing Donald Trump leading in every swing state and other polls showing that he's either tied or leading.
	And you know what tide means?
	Tide means he's probably up four or five points because they always undervalue him in polls.
	So even after the coronation, that fixed debate, all that, Donald Trump is still the odds on favor to be your next president.
	You really believe that?
	I mean, I'll be honest, I don't think anybody at this point, and I read the polls like you do as well.
	I mean, I saw the New York Times Sienna poll, and, you know, they had it in dead even race.
	What was it, 48, 48?
	And now they did a poll of three important swing states, Arizona, North Carolina, Georgia.
	And Donald Trump is leading in all three of them, and they're must-win states for Donald Trump.
	There were two polls that have him up in Pennsylvania.
	He's very close in Wisconsin and Michigan as well.
	And Nevada also there.
	I mean, you know, 50-45 in Arizona, 49-45 in Georgia, 49-47 in North Carolina.
	I wish that wasn't as close.
	But look at the state of Virginia.
	I'm sure you probably saw the Old Dominion poll that came out, and it was 47 Kamala Harris, 46 Trump.
	And that was the University of Washington.
	And not exactly welcome news for the Harris campaign.
	What is your take on that?
	And I'll add one thing to your point.
	If you go back to 2020, the final New York Times poll, in Florida, they were off by six points.
	In North Carolina, they were off by five points.
	Pennsylvania, they were off by five points.
	Arizona, they were off by six points.
	In Wisconsin, they were off by a whopping 10 points in their final poll.
	Precisely.
	So again, they can't find Trump supporters as easily.
	And therefore, he's always underweight, and he was underweighted as well in 2016.
	So I always look at these polls.
	I add four or five points because I know that from the past, right?
	And now, meanwhile, there's one poll, Sean, that came out.
	And I think it's the most important poll I've seen of the past three months, we'll call it, since Biden dropped out.
	And that is the Teamsters' own internal polling.
	I know you've talked about this, but it bears repeating that Donald Trump is basically doubling Kamala Harris in rank and file Teamsters support, about 60% for Trump, 30% for Harris.
	So I'm thinking, okay, if he's getting that kind of support from the Teamsters, who have a huge presence in Pennsylvania, for example, that can make a difference there.
	Then he probably already has rank-and-file support, at least a solid majority, from United Order workers, right?
	Maybe not the leadership, because, you know, they're always going to support the Democrat because the money talks, right?
	But the rank-and-file probably under the UAW, they probably support Trump too.
	So there goes Michigan, maybe.
	Then I think of restaurant workers and no tax on tips in places like Nevada in the service industry, and they overwhelmingly support Trump.
	So I think that's why I'm confident that, and I'm not saying, all right, it's over.
	Of course not.
	Anything can happen in the next 43 days.
	But I think there's some things here that really are telling us what the real story is in those key states that matter.
	And if Trump wins Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Nevada, well, this thing is over, not just over, but a landslide.
	But again, it's going to be very close, I'm sure.
	But I think he's leading more than what we believe right now.
	All right, quick break more with the only media analyst I trust, Joe Concha, is with us.
	Don't forget, Joe's new book is out and available, and you can get a copy of it.
	It's called Why Today's Democrats Ate Your Daddy's Donkeys.
	We have it on Hannity.com, Amazon.com, bookstores around the country as we continue.
	When fake news gives you lies, Hannity supplies the truth.
	Sean Hannity is on right now.
	So the FBI, they call it house stealing.
	I've been telling you about this for over a year.
	It is a huge problem.
	If you own a home, if you own any real estate, it is crucial you protect your property and your equity from these criminals.
	Now, I've arranged for you, my listeners, to have 50% off home title locks, triple lock protection.
	Now, you will immediately be protected.
	You'll get 50% off when you use the promo code Hannity.
	That's hometitalock.com, promo code Hannity.
	That's hometitalock.com.
	All right, we continue now.
	Meet an analyst, friend of the program, our friend Joe Concha, is with us.
	A lot of these polls, if you just go to this date in 2020, they had Joe Biden up by eight points.
	On election day, they had Joe Biden up 51-44.
	And you saw how close that race was.
	And, you know, the NBC, October 31st, 2020, had Biden winning by 10 points, 52-42.
	The Economist YouGov had Biden leading by 10 points, 53-43.
	You know, Biden, you know, won by the thinnest of margin of 44,000 votes in three states out of a record 160 million votes.
	I mean, so they can't be more wrong.
	And I do believe that if we pay too much attention to polling, and correct me if I'm wrong, that we run the risk that they deflate people's feelings about the election.
	And I think they do it on purpose, if you want my personal opinion.
	Perhaps.
	Look, Sean, I think it comes down, you always talk about this.
	Elections come down to binary choices, right?
	It comes down to one question, really.
	And I think in the end, even if people, some folks are turned off by Donald Trump's personality, I think in the end, they know that they had more money in their bank accounts and felt more stable in their jobs and felt that wages were outpacing inflation because they were under Donald Trump.
	And that is a big, big factor.
	It's the biggest probably as far as economy.
	And they know that they feel less safe now as far as crime is concerned under this president and this vice president.
	And obviously, the border is something that is an issue that even Kamala Harris is using Donald Trump's wall in her ads because she knows that she's on the wrong side of that.
	So now she's trying to borrow that issue as well from him.
	So on those three big issues, Donald Trump said this once at a rally I went to of his in Wildwood, New Jersey.
	And I wish he would use the line more because it really was effective.
	He says, I think I'm more popular now than I was in 2020 or 2016 because back then I had to tell you what you had to imagine what a Hillary presidency would look like or what a Biden presidency would look like.
	He goes, now you don't have to imagine anymore.
	You lived it and you know what I can do and you've seen what they have done.
	It's your choice as far as whether you want to be in the years 2017, 2018, 2019 before the pandemic, or do you want to be 21, 22, 23, and 24, which most Americans tell you this country is going in the wrong direction.
	That's why, again, I think everything seems to be in his favor.
	And I don't think joy is a strategy.
	And I don't think all this slough gets you over the finish line at this point.
	She's not specific about anything.
	And I think people's BS meter is up.
	They spot a phony from a mile away.
	And Kamala Harris, if you want to describe her in one word, it's phony.
	Well, I just think it comes down to the fundamental.
	Are you better off than you were four years ago?
	And what has she done that has made the country better off?
	What has she done that we can point to that we could say has been successful for the American people?
	Fair question.
	It never gets asked.
	Yeah.
	And experience, right?
	So Kamala Harris has never run a lemonade stand.
	And now we expect her to run the U.S. economy.
	Again, based on her own record to this point, proudly casting the tiebreaking vote for the Inflation Reduction Act, which did not reduce inflation, for example.
	So, or the Afghanistan withdrawal, she was the last one in the room, and she signed off on it.
	Well, we all know how that went.
	So, again, she's got a record now she's got to run on.
	And when she does interviews, that Oprah interview, people think, oh, wow, that went well for it.
	No, it did not, because if you want to get into that, that, that interview was a disaster.
	Oh, completely.
	And just the optics of it.
	So, okay, you want to get independence in Pennsylvania, Michigan, Nevada, Georgia, North Carolina.
	So you're going to go to one of the richest women on the planet and then bring in all these other millionaires, Hollywood elites.
	And that's what this Democratic Party has become, the party of coastal elites instead of the party of the working man and women, which they used to profess to be for.
	And meanwhile, Donald Trump is seen as the president for the working man and woman.
	So the script has been completely flipped at this point.
	And in the states that matter, if that's the perception, then, again, Donald Trump is looking good.
	Joe Concha, as always, we appreciate you.
	The best media voice out there.
	They're the only objective media analyst in the entire country, unfortunately.

	Sean Hannity.
	Always concerned for our country.
	Always honoring our servicemen and service women and standing up for liberty every day.
	All right, 25 now till the top of the hour.
	Your call's coming up, 800-941, Sean, if you want to be a part of the program.
	I just love the people at the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews.
	They have done more to help tens and tens and tens of thousands of displaced Israelis since October 7th than any one organization combined.
	They have been on the ground from day one, and they're providing housing and food and health care and medicines and bare necessities for all the people in Israel that have been displaced as they really are fighting a three-front war.
	And now more than ever, they've been fighting back against Hezbollah.
	And, you know, we're fighting against people in this country, virulent anti-Semitic statements in Congress, college campuses, all around the world.
	It's sad.
	We're coming up to the one-year anniversary of October the 7th, and the IFCJ, the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews, they are partnering with over 230 churches and other organizations across the country, and they're calling it their Flags for Fellowship, and they're planting Israeli flags in remembrance of what would be the equivalent of 40,000 dead Americans in a day.
	You can be part of the Flags for Fellowship, and the beauty of it is you are helping them in their efforts to help all of these people that are in desperate need.
	Now, we're looking for 1,200 of my listeners, which should be easy to find, that could provide a $100 gift because they need, like yesterday, emergency food boxes for all these displaced families, elderly included, in Israel.
	I mean, there's so many people just in northern Israel that have been displaced and southern Israel that have been displaced.
	You can call their toll-free number and help them out.
	They need it bad.
	It's 888-888-488-IFCJ 888-488-4325 online.
	It's one word, support, IFCJ.org.
	That's supportifcj.org.
	And please help them today.
	Their need is great.
	All right, 800-941-Shauna's on number.
	If you want to be a part of the program, but we got another cut of Kamala committing yet again to ending fracking once and for all.
	But of course, she wants you to believe, oh, that's not true because she knows she can't win Pennsylvania stating her true opinion.
	Listen.
	I am committed to passing a Green New Deal, creating clean jobs, and finally putting an end to fracking once and for all.
	Mama La Kamala, just don't give a frack.
	Mama La Kamala, that's the second one.
	We need a mamala, Drew Barrymore says.
	That was Jimmy Fallon in that particular case.
	I find it amazing that not only are Democrats, the SAVE Act and Congress are so against proof of citizenship for elections.
	Why do you think that is?
	Why would they be against proof of citizenship?
	Why would they be against voter ID laws?
	Why do I need a picture ID to get into the Democratic National Convention, but I don't need one to vote like it when I lived in the state of New York?
	Why is that?
	Tell me, explain that rationale to me.
	Why wouldn't they want signature verification and integrity measures and chain of custody controls?
	Why wouldn't they want and demand updated voter rolls?
	Why wouldn't they want partisan observers in every precinct in the country for the benefit of everybody?
	That means Democrats, Republicans, Independent, whatever parties are on the ballot, yet they get to watch the voting up close all day.
	Not watching who people are voting for, but meaning watching what's going on, making sure that everything is done in the right way, making sure ballots are safely secured, and watch the vote counting all night.
	Why would they be against proof of citizenship, voter ID?
	Why?
	The only reason I can think of is because they think it benefits them.
	And if walls are so bad, why did I face wall after wall after wall and fence after fence after fence when I was at the Democratic National Convention this summer?
	Just interesting food for thought.
	You got a Washington Post correspondent is actually out there, you know, saying that the GOP push for citizen votership laws is opposed by Democrats.
	Yeah, you think?
	But the question is why?
	What Mike Johnson did set himself up for is a failed vote this week regarding a six-month extension of federal fundings that attached this bill that Donald Trump has been pushing, which would force voters voting in federal elections to provide some sort of proof of citizenship.
	That failed in the House, allowing Johnson to now be able to pivot to negotiating with Senate Democrat-led majority.
	And we know that in the Senate, there is, and actually among some Republicans as well, there is a proclivity towards supporting a three-month continuing resolution.
	That would be basically maintaining federal funding at the current levels it is, but with in a clean way with no added provisions, as this citizenship bill is deeply opposed by Democrats and would be vetoed by the White House.
	Why would they be against proof of citizenship?
	And if you can explain it to me, call 800-941-Sean if you want to be a part of the program.
	Let's get to our phones.
	Let's say hi to Marcy is in Myspree state of Florida.
	Marcy, how are you?
	Glad you called.
	Doing good.
	How are you doing today?
	Hanging in there.
	Voting, early voting starting all around the country, Marcy, and I hope people are paying attention.
	I do too.
	I was listening to the radio about the Sean Combs situation.
	And one of the things that I've come to realize in my town, and I live in Cocoa, Florida, it just seems that the law is doing less and less.
	Crime is at an all-time high.
	I'm a landlord here, and we have rental property, and I've reported serious crimes, even as far as a baby dying in critical condition in a critical state.
	And nothing about it.
	And I've had a situation where somebody stole about almost $3,000 from my 90-year-old father-in-law.
	And there's things that I've reported.
	You know, you have to go through the steps.
	You want to report the crime.
	And then you feel like when the law gets to your house, they don't even want to take a report.
	They act like you're bothering them.
	And, you know, I'm a taxpayer.
	I know that, you know, we don't pay a lot of money.
	I think about $6,000, $150 a year goes to the police department.
	But when you feel that you're reporting a crime and you're supposed to take the steps necessary, and then you feel like they walk away and they're kind of like laughing, they don't care.
	They look at you like whatever.
	You just feel like, what's going on?
	Is the criminals going to be getting away with more and more?
	And I think the reason why Sean was probably out there doing what he was doing, maybe he felt like, you know, hey, we'll get away with it.
	Oh, make sure when you say Sean, you're being very specific about what Sean you're talking about.
	You're talking about P. Diddy.
	Yes, yes.
	I was just talking about, you know, his situation and just crime is at an all-time high.
	It's terrible.
	The only thing I would say down in Florida that I would pay very close attention to, and I'm speaking from experience, I have found where I live in Florida, both the local police and the sheriff's department are the most responsive that I've ever seen in my life.
	And they did, you know, especially under the new leadership where I used to live in New York, on Long Island, in Nassau County, they did have good policing there, although they were unfortunately still subject to some New York laws that prevent officers from doing their jobs.
	Such laws don't exist down here in Florida.
	So I would just say work with your local sheriff's department, work with your local police department.
	And I could tell you right now, they're under very, very, you know, they have all the freedom they need to enforce laws, and they're committed to it in Florida, especially on issues like this.
	Yes.
	Well, I did ask that.
	I did ask one of the sheriffs.
	I said, why do you think that this isn't going to the state's attorney's office?
	Why hasn't it made its way?
	I mean, I can remember a day if somebody wrote a bad check for $13, you were going to jail.
	Today, it's like they say, well, having to prove it is one thing, and having to find the criminal is another.
	There's just so many different things that prevent this from going to the state's attorney's office now.
	A lot of people are getting away with more and more.
	And yeah, I'm going to have to do something about it.
	I am a letter writer, and I guess I'm going to have to get out there and write some letters.
	It's coming to that.
	I think you do that, but I would add one other thing.
	And honestly, I think it's very simple.
	And for me, I would go out and I would just stop by your local police department, your local sheriff's office, and just file the complaint as appropriate.
	And my experience has been they're on it down here in a big way, in a really big way.
	So I'm sorry you're going through it, but it's very different than what it was like in New York.
	I can tell you that, especially New York City, which was the worst of the worst, not because the cops are bad, because they had literally had handcuffs on their ability to do their job.
	Back to our phones as we say hi to speaking of my former stomping grounds, Bob in Long Island.
	Bob, how are you?
	Did you go to the Coliseum in Uniondale for the Trump rally or no?
	I did not.
	However, I must say that my understanding is Nassau County has the lowest crime rate in the nation, and we've got one of the best commissioners in Ryder.
	He did a fabulous job for the Trump rally.
	You're talking about Blake.
	I think he's done a great job for Nassau County.
	Yeah, no, when I say Ryder, he's the police commissioner for Nassau County.
	No, he's also great.
	No, they've done a great job of doing a much better job.
	And they've got some real challenges in both Nassau and Suffolk County, especially with the illegal immigration that they've had to deal with there too, including gangs.
	Yep.
	Hey, Sean, I wanted to mention Harris has accepted the CNN debate offer.
	and i know trump is declined however if fox were to offer a debate i think that let me let me jump the gun They already did.
	Harris said no.
	Well, I would put that forward if I'm Trump again because Kamala is hammering him for rejecting the CNN.
	Trump can simply say, I've already debated on CNN.
	And if you want, as you say you do, another debate because the American people deserve that debate, I'm willing to meet you at Fox.
	Put her in a box.
	Let her get defensive rather than him be defensive on the debate issue.
	You know what the problem is?
	She wants this debate one month from today.
	She wants it on October the 23rd.
	With the amount of voting that will take place by the time that debate would ever be held, it's hardly worth doing anyway.
	And she knows it, so it's a phony issue.
	Now, if she said, I'll debate next week, and after he did two liberal networks, she would be willing to go on Fox, which she has outright rejected, and her campaign is rejected over and over and over again.
	And I can speak from a position of fact, then, you know, it's just not going to happen.
	The problem is with any of these liberal networks, in my view, is that they're never going to play Harris or ask Harris about her $93 trillion Green New Deal, Eliminate the Filibuster, or government Health Care for All, no private insurance, you know, free housing, health care, education, driver's licenses, path to amnesty, and sex change operations for illegals.
	She's not going to ask about, they're not going to ask about the names of the people that have been murdered, unvetted Harris Biden illegals, the people that have been raped and victims of violent crime.
	They're not going to ask about her actions in the summer of 2020 with the Bell Fund and saying that the rioters won't stop and shouldn't stop.
	They're not going to ask about her no fracking.
	They're not going to press her on abortion.
	They're not going to press her on gun confiscation laws.
	So it's kind of pointless and fruitless in my mind.
	And, you know, at this point in the campaign, I don't see any reason to do it or want to watch it even because I just know how it's going to end.
	And that is, it's another three-on-one situation.
	Although, in fairness to both Dana Bash and to Jake Tapper, I thought they were way more fair than David Muir.
	By the way, his ratings are down 8% since that debate on World News tonight and probably going lower.
	Great job, Bob Iger, ABC, Disney, and ABC News, Disney.
	They did a lousy job, and Americans are fed up.
	Anyway, my friend, appreciate the call.
	Kentucky, we got Leslie next.
	Hi, Leslie.
	How are you?
	Glad you called.
	Hi, Sean.
	I am hoping that you'll help me understand Kamala's policy.
	She's talking about this opportunity economy, and I'm a little bit confused.
	She's going to give in her proposal $50,000 to small businesses as they start up, but it's as a tax credit.
	So when I hear tax credit, what I'm thinking is I must owe $50,000 in tax, and then you're going to not charge the $50,000 in tax that I owe.
	Is that what you understand?
	My understand is it's basically Kamala Harris.
	It's a, how do I say this?
	It's incrementalism of the Green New Deal.
	And as cynical as I am, I would say whether it's loan forgiveness for college loans or, you know, 25 grand for first-time homebuyers or whatever it happens to be, it's basically here, vote for me and I'll give you something of value.
	You know, to illegal immigrants, her, quote, earned path to citizenship is really amnesty, and that is something of great worth.
	Oh, I hope you'll vote for me, and I hope you'll vote for Democrats in perpetuity.
	So to me, you know, I think for her, now, if you're a supply-side economy, you know, and believe in supply-side economics like I do, you know, you would say no tax on tips is an incentive or no tax on overtime pay or no tax on Social Security just makes sense.
	But then coupled with that is energy dominance, which would bring in huge, you know, trillions of dollars ultimately to the economy, lowering tax rates, which then incentivizes investment, which creates revenues for the government.
	Reagan doubled revenues by cutting taxes and Trump did the same.
	And it just is, he hit COVID after, you know, two years in office, which was, you know, after three years in office, everything was going swimmingly until then.
	And through no fault of his own, the worst pandemic in 100 years.
	Anyway, I hope that answers your question, Leslie.
	I wish I had more time for you.
