On this Thursday, it's fairly easy to pinpoint Trump voters. Generally, they are conservative Americans, or folks who object to the woke culture.

The Maga crew are devoted to the former president, but they're not the majority supporting him. Traditional thinking Americans are the largest group that will vote Republican in November. It is vastly different for Vice President Harris. There are three main voting blocks supporting her. The first and largest are Americans who simply despise Donald Trump. They'd vote for Dracula over him. The second crew is doctrinaire liberal, the George Clooney's, the MSNBC roster. As long as you're left, you're right.

These people vote ideology exclusively. The third and smallest Kamala support group are skin color voters. A woman of color? Certainly. Don't need to know more than that. At this point, very few voters are undecided. What is somewhat available are apathetic Americans who don't care very much about their government. If you can get their attention, you might get their vote if they show up on Election Day, a very big if.

Kamala Harris and Donald Trump are pretty much tied at this point. The debate will be big and will have smart, honest coverage here. If Donald Trump can calmly make his case, That will help him immensely. I'm Bill O'Reilly. I approve the message by writing it. You can reach me. Bill at Bill o'Reilly.com.

Bill at bill o'Reilly.com. Name in town if you wish to opine. Okay, there's a mail. Let's go to Eileen Schaff, Long Beach, California. O'Reilly, thank you for being the only one who's explained a risk of being defensive in a presidential election. Harris is a prosecutor.

That's what she's trained for. That's why Donald Trump has been up to his neck and all these legal charges. Trump needs to be a better prosecutor in the debate. Well, Harrison has anything to do with the prosecutions of Donald Trump. That came from the Biden Justice Department. Vice President has no sway in that. So we've got to be honest here. But you're right when you say, Eileen, that she thinks along the lines of,

I'm going to nail him, I'm going to nail him, not what I'm going to do better for the country. No. I'm going to get him, get him, get him, get him. But I think Trump knows that. Robert, concierge member, thank you, Robert. I continue to be amazed that someone is obviously intelligent and savvy as President Trump feels to see how he embroils himself in trivial pursuits to his detriment. You're not alone. Knock out the small ball stuff. Okay, let's go for the big one. She is a danger to all of us. Doesn't get bigger than that. John, Nolan, Fargo, North Dakota. In all your presidential research bill, has there ever been a weaker candidate than Kamala Harris?

Yes. And it's an excellent question. And you will see this in confronting the presidents. Two spring to mind. General George McClellan ran against Abraham Lincoln in 1864. McClellan was a disastrous candidate. Racist, awful. Warren Harding got elected on the United.

the Republican side, terrible candidate, terrible president, okay, they were worse than Kamala, but the stakes were not as high, although you can make an argument that with McClellan and Lincoln, they were, but you know what I'm talking about. Today, socialism or capitalism, that's pretty high stakes. In a moment, something you might not know.

Fifty-two years ago today, terrorists breached the Olympic Village in Munich, Germany. Once inside, they brutally slaughtered members of the Israeli team, then took others hostage. Here is the story of the Munich Massacre. Before dawn on September 5, 1972, eight men wearing track suits carrying gym bags, scale the security perimeter surrounding the Olympic apartment complex. The terrorists were members of a group called Black September,

a faction of the Palestinian Liberation Organization. They brutally murdered two Israelis on the spot, then took nine captives. The nightmare unfolded on live television. The terrorists then demanded the release of 234 Arab prisoners captured during the Six-Day War of 1967. After a 23-hour standoff with West German police, the crisis ended in catastrophe. Fearing for the lives of the hostages, the Germans opened fire.

Black September tossed a live grenade to a crowded helicopter holding the captives. More than 900 million people watched the death happen live on television. In total, 11 Israelis, one West German police officer, killed. Five terrorists died during the assault. Three were captured alive. They were not detained for long. Two months after the Munich massacre, the attackers were released by the West German authorities after Black September hijacked a Lathansa jet. There was a trade-off. The terrorists were then flown to Libya where they were greeted as heroes. Enraged, Israel launched Operation Rath of God covert mission to kill everyone associated with the Olympic attack.

Mossad agents infiltrated 12 different countries across Europe and the Middle East. The death count remains classified, but as many as 40 high-ranking terrorists were killed by the Mossad. The Munich massacre forever changed security surrounding the Olympic athletes. Today, the Israeli team no longer relies on foreign protection. They are guarded by armed members of the Israeli military and stay in housing offsite. Back after this.
