Senate Candidate for Michigan, a Fmr. Congressman and FBI agent, Mike Rogers, is running against radical Elissa Slotkin - we are starting to see a change in the polls and Mike is pulling ahead in a few polls. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We don't talk enough about Donald Trump's success.
And this fits into things that I think are very overall should be pertinent to people's lives.
And if you look at the growth rate, we've all been dealing with inflation.
If you are getting a mortgage for your house, you can pay about twice of what you were paying when Donald Trump left office.
I mean, that's because of higher interest rates, and I don't care about the 50 basis points cut because we had 12,000 jobs created last month, 12,000.
And then we had revised downward the previous two months as per usual, which we have pointed out often.
But he had, again, pre-pandemic, 20 up to 2020.
The overall growth rate in this country was a whopping 6.8%.
Real median income grew at an even greater rate.
Now, this is after the Trump tax cuts, which will expire, which means everybody's going to have a tax increase that's going to be massive.
But real median income grew by an even greater number of 7.9% for African Americans in this country.
Oh, it only hopes the evil rich.
Actually, the evil rich paid more taxes under Donald Trump.
My taxes when he got rid of the assault deduction, state and local tax deduction.
He's open to bringing it back.
You're rewarding high-tax states like California and New York for electing politicians that are taxed and spent liberals, and their benefits that are not given to states that elect low-tax politicians that manage their budgets better.
Anyway, 7.9%.
Overall rate goes up 6.8%.
African Americans 7.9%.
7.1% for Hispanic Americans, again, above above any other demographic group.
A whopping 10.6% for Asian Americans.
Every one of those is a record high, as were the new income levels for all of these groups.
As for talking about the Trump tax cuts benefiting the rich, well, as income grew in 2019, the poverty rate plummeted 1.3 percentage points.
Now you might think 1.3 percentage points.
That's not a lot.
And anyway, that was a 60-year low of 10.5%.
The largest reduction in poverty in over 50 years.
Donald Trump lifted 4.1 million people out of poverty, the largest yearly decrease since 1966.
He also made us energy dominant.
Now, if you want a comparison, the eight years of Obama and Biden, the number of people in poverty actually increased by nearly a million.
To be give you the official number, it's 787,000.
And while the overall poverty rate declined 1.3 percentage rates, African American poverty fell by 2.0 percentage points.
Asian American poverty 2.8.
According to White House Council of Economic Advisors, the poverty rate fell to an all-time record low for every race and ethnic group in 2019.
You can thank the Trump tax cuts for all of that.
You know, you look at all of the things that Donald Trump has done.
How about, you know, we never talk about this.
Right to try.
If you if if conventional medicine brings you to a point where you can no longer they can't help you.
And you hear about alternative medicines and therapies and solutions.
Shouldn't you have the right in a free country to try it yourself?
And and I believe you should.
You know, we had illegal immigration.
We didn't have wide open borders, 12 and a half million people.
We didn't have dozens of dead Americans like Rachel Moran, uh uh Rachel Moore and Mother of Five, Lakin Riley, Josh Alex, I'm sorry, Jocelyn Nungarry.
Her mom's name's Alexa, she's a great woman.
You know, or you know, look at Donald Trump was the one that got communications.
Do you know we realize that fully we just found out this weekend?
Fully half the people in North Carolina that called FEMA never got a phone call returned.
Not one.
Nobody got back to them.
Donald Trump goes to North Carolina, calls his friend Elon Musk.
Starlink is sent out to the entire area so they can communicate with the rest of the world.
It's unbelievable.
And by the way, who went after the train derailment in East Palestine?
Remember that happened in February of 2023.
It wasn't Joe Biden.
He arrived a year later.
Unbelievable.
What about criminal justice reform?
We had on this program, our dear friend Alice Marie Johnson.
Can anyone ever forget the scene?
Barack Obama didn't pardon.
She was a one time drug offense.
Life in prison.
Then many, many others.
You know, look at the money that he has secured for our military funding, 700 billion and then the next year 716 billion.
Now we have a military that is woke and broke.
It's terrible.
He drew withdrew from that horrific Iranian deal.
Iran was on the verge of bankruptcy.
No president was ever as friendly to Israel as Donald J. Trump moving the embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, recognizing Golan Heights and the West Bank, and saying that after October the seventh, they have a right to win their war against radical Islamic terrorism.
Gas prices under Donald Trump, less than $2.50 a gallon when he left office.
You know, now you're paying $1.50 more a gallon.
You're happy?
And if you live in California, you're paying twice that amount.
And I could just keep going on, but I have Mike Rogers is with us, Senate candidate from the all-important swing state of Michigan.
You are in a dead even race, sir.
That race is dead even.
Your race is dead even, and Trump's race is dead even.
What's going on in Michigan?
And when I look at a company like Ford that had to recently lay off people, and I look at Ford that lost four point what five billion dollars because of the Harris Biden electric vehicle mandate, and they were forced to build cars that their customers didn't want, it angers me.
Uh, because those are high paying career jobs in the auto industry.
That's the UAW workers that that that you know, those are good jobs for people.
Sean, you were so right.
And when uh I worked on an assembly line in Michigan, listen, when you get those pink flips, when those pink flips uh start flying around, think how devastating that is.
Not just to the worker, but he has to go home and explain to his family, hey, things are gonna have to change here financially.
Uh they may not come back.
It's the Ford Lightning, which is the all-electric vehicle pickup truck um that you know doesn't carry as much load.
You can't call, you know, you can't haul a trailer for with snow uh four snowmobiles up to your uh you know in your fishing hole up north here in Michigan.
I mean, people didn't buy it because it it's not very practical.
But the government, under the Harris Biden slotken agenda, said, hey, we're gonna, you know, we're gonna force you guys to build EDs and we're gonna force Americans eventually to have to buy EDs.
It's been an unmitigated disaster.
So not only do those 700, and think of this, Sean, that means for Thanksgiving and Christmas, happy Thanksgiving, Merry Christmas.
You guys are laid off.
And that's because they're building something the government told them to build, it's not selling, number one.
Stallantis, 2400 layoffs.
General Motors, a thousand layoffs for just now 700.
We've lost 20,000 manufacturing jobs since Biden and Harris took office.
Twenty thousand in just Michigan alone.
Those jobs are about seventy-two thousand dollars apiece, Sean.
So these are good paying jobs that can take care of a family gone.
I I don't know how anyone stands up and supports their policies, what they've done to America, uh, and then you add on top of it, certainly your grocery prices, your gas prices, your housing prices.
Oh, and by the way, we had an illegal uh immigrant kill Ruby Garcia in the west side of the state.
We've had uh a young 11-year-old raped by an illegal immigrant because of wide open border.
Uh same in uh little county that I grew up in called Livingston County, uh, a sexual assault of a 14 year old because of the open border.
Oh, and by the way, 3,000 Michigan citizens died from fentanyl poisoning.
Uh and I listen, the list goes on.
How anyone couldn't look at that and think we have got to have a change is beyond me.
And if we give the Democrats another four years, we won't have an American automobile company.
This is the first time in history, Sean, that they produce more foreign cars in America than domestic cars.
That's never happened before.
So these are the the our uh friends in Washington, DC, so called friends, have really done a number on a state like Michigan.
How anyone can sport them is beyond me.
But here's the good news if I can real quick.
We stopped at we were going from the uh JD Vance, we're going to another rally in Macomb, Michigan, the old Reagan Democrats.
We stop at a Lebanese restaurant.
We have a lot of uh Middle Easterners uh who have located in Michigan, we're glad for all of them.
Very entrepreneurial.
We get in, there's Egyptians, Lebanese, uh Iraqi Chaldeans, it's really quite a quite a group.
Uh and by the way, all came here legally, all are very upset about illegal immigration.
And they're saying, you know, we came here for hope and opportunity.
Four years ago, my business was booming.
Today, I don't know if I'm gonna make it.
We have to have you win.
And I'm telling you, we just hear this story over and over and over again.
Sean, that's why this election is so important.
Well, it is, and we're watching your race.
How do you think it plays out?
And what are these early voting numbers tell you in Michigan right now?
Well, the early voting is favoring Republicans.
That's the good news.
Now, absentee ballot voting, which is a very traditional Democrat lead.
We always we expected this, and you know, if you're you have a score score of one to four, if you're a four, you're a definite Democrat or a definite Republican.
These are three and four Democrats, early absentee voting.
But early voting, where you go up and show up in person, is definitely favoring Republicans.
And here's the good news.
We are seeing an inordinate amount of uh what we call low propensity voters.
Some people have not voted in any election, let alone the last two elections, are showing up in droves.
That's really good news for Republicans.
These are the people who are saying, All right, I you know, I'm not all that political, but this thing ain't working for me.
And they're gonna show up and send uh send Republicans gonna send me to the Senate and they're gonna send Donald J. Trump uh to the White House.
I mentioned earlier Sam Brown, I mentioned Carrie Lake, I mentioned we just had Eric Havdi on from your neighboring state Wisconsin.
Uh we've talked a lot about Dave McCormick in Pennsylvania and Bernie Moreno, and obviously I feel pretty confident uh about what's going on in Montana and West Virginia, but if you're gonna vote for Donald Trump, he does need a big majority in the House in the Senate, so his agenda can get passed.
Uh Mike Rogers, if people want to learn more about you in Michigan, how do they do it?
And it's never too late.
Rogers for Senate.com.
Listen, the Democrats have been pouring money from out of the state.
Like I I mean, I'm never seen it.
But here's the good news.
They brought in Bon Jovi for the Democrats.
I've got to tell you, Sean, uh, we've got auto workers.
They brought in Taylor Swift.
I guess got bad news for you, folks.
We've got Teamsters.
You know, they they brought in all Sarica Jessica Parker.
Taylor Swift is on the campaign trail?
No, she was she endorsed uh Trump.
But I you know, she came out and endorsed it, and I think she got such a She didn't endorse Trump.
She I think she endorsed Kamala.
Excuse me, excuse me.
Sorry.
Yeah, I got that you got me so worked up, Sean.
That's I You're not a Swifty, are you?
Is that what happened?
They got it, you know, all worked up?
No.
No, yeah, exactly.
No, no, no Swifty here.
But I will tell you the this is what the difference is.
They're bringing all these very uh you know, multi millionaires to come into this state who are entertainers, uh, and they're going for the other team.
And boy, when we go around, it these are working people who are standing up saying enough is enough.
This is that election where us, the middle of the country, the folks who get up every day and work for a living, put kiss their kids and put them on the bus, get to take our country back.
That's what I think is exciting people here.
And so they can bring in all the fancy stars they want.
We've got people who actually, you know, we've got auto workers and we've got police officers and we've got mil uh veterans.
Those are the people that really matter, and that's why we're gonna win.
I just hope every person in Michigan and Wisconsin and Pennsylvania And Georgia, North Carolina, Arizona, Nevada.
I hope every one of them has the attitude and the urgency to believe that their one vote is going to decide this election.
And that means in your state of Michigan.
Mike Rogers, we appreciate it.
And uh best of luck uh tomorrow be watching very closely.
Hey, thanks, Sean.
Thanks for uh your being a common sense voice in a wilderness of nuttiness.
Yeah, there's a lot of nuttiness out there.
I agree.
It's crazy.
All right, 25 now to the top of the hour.
Our toll-free number is 800-941 Sean.
If you want to be a part of the program, and I gotta tell you something, it is a really remarkable time in this country that we are living in.
And I'm gonna get to how the crazy, crazy, you know, reaction of the radical left.
We talked about Kathy Holko.
We played that earlier in the program.
Donald Trump is the winner in this race.
And I hope he is.
But assume your vote will decide that, not mine.
If everyone listening to me assumes their one vote will be the deciding vote, you have the right mindset going into tomorrow.
If that I said it enough today, probably not.
Assume that your vote, especially in Georgia, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Michigan, Arizona, Nevada, assume your vote will determine the whole outcome.
And if you have that sense of urgency about the moment we are living in, the historic moment we're living in, then I believe we'll get the right outcome.
And that we can get America back on track.
That's really all I care about.
I just want this country on track.
I want us to be our better selves.
Well, Donald Trump, he says mean things, and I'm like, okay.
You want to hear mean things?
Just wait till I play Scarborough here in a second.
Listen, if you want to, if you're a second amendment person like me, you want to be the most competent and confident uh shooter you can possibly be.

Um you think of the the good book, right?
You think of, you know, forgive them, Father, for they know what not know not what they do.
Do I really think that the left is unhinged?
I do.
I think this is no longer uh this isn't this party represents nothing of what it used to represent.
They have become a party of coastal elites.
They represent I mean, the Julia Roberts had, oh, you can go into the voting booth and you could lie to your husband and say, Did you vote the right way, honey?
And some, oh yeah, and you could secretly vote for Kamala.
Nobody will know.
Or George Clooney, he's no John Wayne.
You're not in my example.
I mean, I think he's the biggest, one of the biggest jackasses in all of Hollywood.
Love to say that to his face.
I really would.
I think you just did.
Well, he's I mean, I'm just you know, the thing is.
No, he's not here in front of me, but I would say it right now.
I have no doubt he hate lessons.
Oh, you think so?
Absolutely.
He's heard about it because I've said it enough because he is a jackass.
You know, it's funny, someday they'll do a movie about you, and he's gonna be cast as Sean Hammond.
You know what?
That's not funny.
That is really not funny.
There was something that I think Nathan Lane played me once or something.
I don't know, it's something.
Um, you know what it was?
I remember now.
Somebody said, Oh, you looked like Nathan Lane.
I'm like, okay, I gotta get in better shape.
I really do.
I gotta look like that.
No, not at all.
The best bit on me ever, though, was John Stewart's when I first said in 2014 I was gonna leave New York, and Stuart got the Jersey boys, and this is what diff, and I'll make this point too in a minute about Bill Maher and John Stewart.
You know, what makes them stand out against say that you know Kimmel, nobody watches them, Colair, nobody watches them, Fallon, nobody watches them.
Their shows have been cut to four days a week.
You know, even Kimmel is recognizing that late night comedy is about to die because nobody will watch because they've become it they've become so viciously political.
And you know, here's this wide open lane, and you got Greg Guttfell crushing them, and I'm loving every minute of it.
I think it's hilarious.
Anyway, poor liberal Joe.
I used to know him back in the day when I thought he was a conservative, but I don't know, maybe maybe people will do a lot of things because they want to be on TV.
And I won't I won't do I if I was offered five hundred times what I'm being paid and I'm paid well in TV to be a liberal sh uh no, no, thank you.
I don't want I'm not selling out what my beliefs ever.
Because I am who I am.
You can't fake it for three hours a day on radio and an hour on TV.
What you see and hear is what you get.
Anyway, so Joe, I mean, after being called Nazis and and garbage and fascists and racist and sexist and homophobic, xenophobic, Islamophobic, transphobic, you know, poor granny and grandpa, their social security and Medicare is gonna be stolen, etc.
etc.
And their closing argument, and and then when you think it can't get bad enough than being called garbage, now Kathy Hokel, the governor of New York, you know, she was the one that said, you know, Lee Zelton, Trump's above, get out of town.
And we're here to say that the era of Trump and Zeldon and Molinaro just jump on a bus and head down to Florida where you belong, okay?
Get out of town, get out of town.
Because you don't re you don't represent our values.
You are not New Yorkers.
You're right.
I'm no longer a New Yorker.
I was told by two governors in a row to get out of town, and I got out of town.
I left.
It said I I don't even want to come back up to visit ever.
And, you know, Andrew Cuomo.
You know, tax the rich, tax the rich, tax the rich, eventually the rich leaf.
Well, that's their problem is not me and the Democrats.
Their problem is themselves.
Who are they?
Who are they?
Are they these extreme conservatives who are right to life?
Up to assault weapon, anti gay.
Is that who they are?
Because if that's who they are, and if they are the extreme conservatives, they have no place in the state of New York.
Because that's not who New Yorkers are.
Well, I am right tax the rich tax the rich.
We did.
Now God forbid the rich leave.
The rich, but they lost one percent of their population last year.
You know, and I am right to I I believe I'm pro-life, but I understand most people aren't.
I get it.
I think the country's at first trimester Dobbs, I think, but nobody supports Kamala and Tim Wall's radical position of late-term abortion and no restrictions at all on abortion.
And yes, I'm pro-second amendment.
I'm not anti-gay.
But you know, they're not New Yorkers.
All right.
So I'm I I, like so many others, left.
And when I say I left, I've been gone.
Linda, how many times did you see me this year?
How many times except for except on the road in Pennsylvania or I mean I saw you, I thought it was Nathan Lane, but then I was like, oh no, that's on.
I got it.
You enjoying yourself in that?
Except for us being in like New Hampshire, South Carolina.
We never saw each other unless we were covering the campaign.
That's it.
I mean, in another state.
And I I had to come up for Fox coverage tonight uh tomorrow night.
So I'm here for two days.
And by the way, I'm getting out before midnight.
I'm just out of here.
Uh, but it's sad, actually, but if that's what you think, anti-Americans.
Well, anyway, let's go back To Scarborough just losing his mind this morning.
I will ask the question that I think is a fair question to ask.
Who raised these people?
Yeah.
Because they they were not raised by anybody in my neighborhoods that I grew up, any middle class neighborhoods that I grew up in, these people were not there.
They were not raised.
I mean, they weren't in the classes I went to growing up in elementary or middle or or or high school or college.
They just weren't there.
That wasn't the America I grew up in, where people would laugh at the idea of people of press getting shot.
Like everybody would like to sit around like, what?
What's he talking about?
Or or or uh again, the the the laughing at the Puerto Rican.
Other things, laughing at the Puerto Rican joke.
My God.
That Puerto Ricans are a pile of trash, are laughing at a 82, 83-year-old man being bludgeoned nearly to death.
That's in the that's a that's a an applause line?
That's a laugh line.
Again, again, where we who are these people?
Where are they coming from?
And who raised them?
And how did Donald Trump twist their point of view so much in nine years that the brutalization of an 83-year-old man is something to laugh about, or the shooting of press members is an applause line.
I mean, I uh the funniest part of that is the lower third, what they call a chiron in television, says Trump pushes dark divisive messages, final weekend of campaign.
I mean, he he's out there.
Who are these people?
Who where do they come from?
Who raised them?
I mean, they're just slandering and smearing Trump supporters again.
You know, it's a fair question to ask.
Anyway, the panel says it doesn't make any more sense to, you know, to drill for more oil.
Joe, uh are you out of your mind?
Why do you think all these countries are oil-rich countries?
Because they drill for oil.
Oil companies don't want the oil price oil prices to go lower.
So do you actually they want to drill more, but do you how much more do you think they actually want to drill?
The problem is, uh, Willie, as we've talked about all the time, the United States of America has has produced more oil this year than ever before.
There is a problem with drill, drill, drill, drill.
If you're already producing more than ever before, and oil prices have dropped from over a hundred to down to about like 70 or what?
At some point you start getting into the 60s, and the oil companies go, it doesn't make any economic sense for us to drill.
Bingo, we need to let this just play itself out, let oil prices go up per barrel, and then we'll start drilling again.
So again, to say I'm gonna drill more, the oil companies will go, we're not drilling.
If you want to get out there, Donnie, you can, but we're not gonna do it.
Yeah, it's an old slogan that he's bringing back that doesn't make sense anymore, given the fact that the United States of America drills for more oil than any nation in the history of human civilization, and recently supply outstripped demand in that too.
So the only person that I will give credit to is Bill Maher.
Bill Marr slammed the media, you know, for lying about Donald Trump's gun comments about Liz Cheney, and then he slammed everybody and and Biden's garbage comment is deplorable times 10.
He said them both.
Good for him.
He's like, this is why him and John Stewart are the only two funny liberal classical liberal, you know, comedians on air.
He uh John Stewart said, I kind of thought the guy was funny at Madison Square Garden, shouldn't have been there, but he was funny.
I mean, I like P I like Dave Chappelle, I like Chris Rock, I like all anyone that crosses the line.
It doesn't bother me or offend me.
I woke up today to the uh headline that uh Trump had called for a firing squad for Liz Cheney.
And this is what I really don't like about the media.
No, he didn't.
He didn't you don't have to move me to not like Donald Trump.
He's he's criticizing him for being a war hawk.
I mean, she is Dick Cheney's daughter.
He said, She's a radical war hawk.
Let's put her with a rifle standing there with nine barrels shooting at her, okay.
Let's see how she feels about it.
You know, they're all war hawks when they're sitting in Washington in a nice building saying, oh, gee, we'll send tens of thousands of troops right into the mouth of the enemy.
This is exactly what hippies always said.
This is exactly what peace dicks always said.
This is fortunate son, the song.
It's like, you know what?
It's very easy to sit in your building and send young men to die.
You know, just don't lie to me.
I don't like Donald Trump.
Don't lie to me and tell me she was in he wants it in front of this fireman court.
He was saying something that, by the way, if it came out of the mouth, some of it, not the stupid part, again, sounds like what hippies used to say.
First one is what happened this week with the garbage.
Now, the result could be Puerto Ricans in Pennsylvania win this election for Harris, right?
That's possible.
You're doing this.
Or it could be the other way, because I mean, I think it's a bigger gaffe than people think.
It's so funny.
Joe Biden, his whole career, he was like Mr. Gaff.
And then here at the very end, he's like Aaron Judge in in game six.
Just muffed the fly ball and uh at the end of the thing and blew the whole.
Because I feel like it epitomizes everything that the Trump people hate about the Democrats.
They look down on us.
It's like it's like deplorables times ten.
Anyway, got to take a quick break here.
800-941 Sean is on number if you want to be a part of the program.
Final hour roundup is next.
You do not want to miss it.
And stay tuned for the final hour free-for-all on the Sean Hannity Show.
And when we come back, we're going to check in with Mark Halpern.
Here are his comments.
Remember, he also said that we may know the winner before election day.
We'll get his take on this election eve.
And he said this about the state of Wisconsin and where it is right now.
And what I'm here to tell you tonight, based on my reporting with Democrats and Republicans nationally and in both those states, that it could be that Kamala Harris wins Pennsylvania but loses the White House because she loses Wisconsin.
Michigan remains a bit of a puzzle.
Both Kamala Harris and Donald Trump are doing dueling rallies near each other in Wisconsin tonight.
Bitting, as far as I'm concerned, for my reporting, because as I said, my reporting is that she's in trouble in Wisconsin.
This is based on three sources, two Republicans, one Democrat, all of whom know the state quite well.
And all of whom told me today the same version of they would be somewhere between surprised and shocked if Kamala Harris won Wisconsin.
Okay?
Doesn't mean she's not going to.
All I'm telling you is to reorient yourself away from news framing that says it's all about Pennsylvania.
The winner of Pennsylvania will win this election.
That's become kind of a mantra.
The winner of Pennsylvania will win.
I'm here to tell you she may well win Pennsylvania and win the election, but she could win the Pennsylvania and lose the election because she doesn't win Wisconsin.
All right, we'll check in with Mark Halpert on the other side.
We'll get to your calls coming up.
Final hour on this election eve.
Hannity tonight, closing arguments.
Why you should not vote for Kamala, why you should vote for Trump.
