Listen to Post Run High on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Good morning, USA. Let me stop acting like I feel like laughing You feel like laughing? Good morning, y'all Morning How y'all feeling, man?
Starting point is 00:03:48 America has spoken loud and clear Yes Okay, I'm looking at it right now NBC News projects Donald Trump will be the 47th president of the United States of America That is correct It is what it is It is You know,, America has spoken.
Starting point is 00:04:06 You know, congratulations to the, you know, Donald Trump and the Republican the Republican Party. The only thing I pray is that Donald Trump gets back in the White House and he's not looking for revenge. He's actually looking to unite, unite. Yeah. I mean, you know, like that's that, you gotta be a president for all, for all Americans. Yeah. We're talking about that on CNN. Um, when I was driving in and they don't think that that's going to,
Starting point is 00:04:29 I don't think it's going to happen either, but you know, I would rather be optimistic, you know, even though I have no reason to be optimistic because you know, when somebody tells me who they are and shows me who they are, I have no choice but to believe them. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:41 But what other jobs do we have at this moment? There are no other options. There are no other options at this moment. And salute to Vice President Kamala Harris. You know what I mean? She ran a great campaign for what it was. 107 days. Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:04:57 You know? Yeah. But America's spoken. Last night we broadcasted from Howard University where she was set to speak. Of course, she did last night. I wouldn't either. I wouldn't either. They kept saying like she's coming out.
Starting point is 00:05:11 There was a lot of people there to see her though. 20, 30,000 people there to see her. Not by, not, not, not. Oh, that's it? No, no. When we started. By about 10, 30, 11. It was thinner than my hairline.
Starting point is 00:05:24 Yeah. You know you ain't got no hairline. Why would you tell that lie? Okay. Same difference. And it was big pockets and then people were leaving. I think people felt it. But it's just, you know, like you said, she ran a great campaign.
Starting point is 00:05:35 It was only 100 days. She raised a lot of money. She definitely raised a lot of money. But listen, man, the American people spoke. People don't care about cultural issues as much as they care about economic issues, as much as they care about issues of safety. You know, for whatever reason,
Starting point is 00:05:46 Donald Trump is able to resonate that message clearer to the American people. And they went out there and they put their votes where they wanted to. Yeah, I'm not going to lie. I didn't see this coming.
Starting point is 00:05:57 False. I didn't see this at all. It's always a possibility. Before we got to the live stream last night, I didn't, but last night when we got there,
Starting point is 00:06:04 I was like, oh, man. The numbers started coming in. I mean, but listen, I know what we wanted. But then I also know the reality. I'm not going to sit here and say, you know, you don't see it coming. I didn't. I definitely didn't. I don't see why you would.
Starting point is 00:06:17 Just the rhetoric. What people were talking about. What he was talking about. What their side was talking about. The last rally at Madison Square Garden. I was like, yeah. But you don't take into consideration how people are feeling right people don't care about what you're talking about people don't even care about what you're doing they care about how you made them feel and all they can think about is four years ago they felt better economically
Starting point is 00:06:38 under donald trump right they felt safer under donald trump and i that resonated in the voting booth that's right this is what it is. But we're here all morning to talk about it, baby. All right, well, let's get the show cracking. At least you feel like you're tired of talking about it. Yeah. But we ain't got no choice. We have no choice at all.
Starting point is 00:06:53 All right, well, let's get the show cracking. We got front page news. Morgan's there, right? Because she was out late last night. You know how Morgan gets when she's late. I told y'all not to do that damn dance party with Beyonce. I told y'all. You see, I didn't participate.
Starting point is 00:07:04 They in the comments, like, who they dancing with now. I told Nala, do not post it. I said, leave it in the archive. Didn't I say that yesterday? You did, but I look cute, so I felt like, why not post it? All right. That's all, y'all. Nothing to celebrate yet.
Starting point is 00:07:16 All right. Morgan, when we come back, front page news. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. Lola Rosa filling in for Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. Lola Rosa filling in for Jess.
Starting point is 00:07:26 And let's get in some front page news. Good morning, Morgan. Good morning. Good morning. How y'all feeling? Goodness. I feel like I just saw y'all, what, like two hours ago? Pretty much. All right. I feel blessed, black, and highly favored in spite of.
Starting point is 00:07:40 Yes, yes. Blessed, black, and highly favored. Let's keep that energy because the american people have spoken and elected a new commander-in-chief as nbc news projects donald trump as the winner of the 2024 presidential election now the former president now president elect defeated vice president kamala harris in an election that came down to the swing states while speaking to his supporters in west palm beach Florida, in a victory lap about 2.30 in the morning, here's what Trump had to say about the road ahead. Well, I want to thank you all very much. This is great.
Starting point is 00:08:12 These are our friends. We have thousands of friends in this incredible movement. This was a movement like nobody's ever seen before. Every single day I will be fighting for you and with every breath in my body. I will not rest until we have delivered the strong, safe and prosperous America that our children deserve and that you deserve. This will truly be the golden age of America, that's what we have to have. This is a magnificent victory for the American people that will allow us to make America great again. So Trump said his presidential victory was the greatest political movement of all time. And he also said he overcame many
Starting point is 00:09:05 obstacles to beat Harris in the 2024 election. He promised to heal the country and said he'll fight for people and vow to deliver a prosperous America. He also thanked VP elect J.D. Vance, who called the victory the greatest political comeback in history. Let's hear J.D. Vance's victory speech. Well, Mr. President, I appreciate you allowing me to join you on this incredible journey. I thank you for the trust that you placed in me. And I think that we just witnessed the greatest political comeback in the history of the United States of America. And under President Trump's leadership, we're never going to stop fighting for you, for your dreams, for the future of your children. And after the greatest political comeback in American history, we're going to leave the greatest economic comeback in American history under Donald Trump's leadership. Yeah, so Trump is now the second president in U.S. history to serve non-consecutive terms,
Starting point is 00:10:09 I believe, after Grover Cleveland. So you can't deny that it is the greatest political comeback in the history of the United States of America. And, you know, listen, man, America has spoken and they spoke loud and clear. I'm just tired. I don't want to fight with nobody. I don't want to argue with nobody because at the end of the day, we are all Americans. We all want what's best for this country.
Starting point is 00:10:27 I have absolutely zero reason to believe Donald Trump is going to be a president that brings people together. But I'm going to be optimistic because I don't have any other choice. No, no other choice. You stuck for four years. And I hope this is the beginning of the I hope I hope this isn't the beginning of the Donald Trump revenge tour. I hope this is the golden age of America, as he just said. But we'll see. Yeah, we'll see.
Starting point is 00:10:49 All right. Yeah, we'll talk more at seven about what's going on in the Senate. And then we'll also hear about what happened with VP Harris last night. A lot of y'all lied. I'm going to tell you that's great. A lot of y'all said y'all was going to vote for Vice President Kamala Harris. But y'all went in that booth and y'all did something totally different. Michigan, Pennsylvania.
Starting point is 00:11:07 A lot of y'all lied on those polls and a lot of y'all lied to people's face. Yeah. Right. Okay. Well, everybody else, get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. How do you feel this morning? Huh?
Starting point is 00:11:20 You waking up? You finding out Donald Trump is the new president? Don't call up here crying, too. I don't want to hear it. Please. Don't get on your Ben Jones. 800-585-1051? Don't call up here crying, too. I don't want to hear it. Please. 800- Don't get on your Ben Jones. 585-1051.
Starting point is 00:11:28 Don't call up here. You're Ben Jones. I can't take it. Call us up right now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. Let's go. The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:11:37 It's your time to get it off your chest, whether you're mad or blessed. So you better have the same energy. We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club. The legislative branch and the existing branch. That means that any law that he wants to pass, any inane law, he's going to get it passed to both houses. If you want to challenge it and take it to the Supreme Court, he has them, the majority there. So there's no way, his power basically is unlimited. And it won't change.
Starting point is 00:12:06 And there's a difference between an executive order and getting legislation passed. It takes maybe decades to reverse whatever it is because you have to have enough numbers in the House and the Senate to overturn it. So whatever he decides that he wants to do, he basically can do it. And I just want to say something to all of my brothers and my other minorities out there that think they're watering everybody else and got this all figured out.
Starting point is 00:12:34 If he goes ahead and gets rid of qualified immunity, and you can go ahead and be an upright, standard citizen and be in chair when you get pulled over. Think of some of the other minorities. I'm not just talking about Latinos. You could be
Starting point is 00:12:49 from India. You could be from Europe. You could be from wherever you're from, and you could be third generation, but your grandmother and grandfather never got their papers right. This man said that he's going to court the board. Everybody illegal is going back. So now, your grandmother that's been here and she's out of touch
Starting point is 00:13:05 with anything back in the old country, boom, she goes back. And maybe she can sneak back in? I doubt it. At 80 or 90 or even 60 or 70, they're up to the task of doing that. So the brief synopsis is, he basically now is a king.
Starting point is 00:13:21 Because there's nothing that he wants to... And there's nobody in that a senator or congressman from his party that's going to stand up to him right now. So absolutely right. But let's let's hope. Thank you for calling. Let's hope that all of the things that Donald Trump has said he's going to do, he doesn't do. Like, that's all we got at this point. Like literally. And, you know, he brought up a very good point. Republicans won the Senate, the senate last night and then you think about the supreme court judge alito and clarence thomas probably gonna retire so trump gonna get an opportunity to probably put two more judges on over the next four years so that's gonna be a
Starting point is 00:13:58 eight three conservative majority which is very scary and the same supreme court that already granted him presidential immunity so where he can get away with uh crimes as long as it's an executive act well the more we talk the less uh optimistic for all that uh come together all in one well we could just pray well listen he got the catalog he about to show y'all how daddy ball y'all better get all the jokes y'all can now, okay? No, y'all better stop. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051. If you need to vent, phone lines are wide open.
Starting point is 00:14:30 Call us up right now. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. It's your time to get it off your chest, whether you're mad or blessed. You better have the same energy. We want to hear from you on The Breakfast Club. Hello, who's this?
Starting point is 00:14:44 How you doing? It's Thomas, Club. Hello, who's this? How you doing? This is Thomas, man. What's up, Thomas? Get it off your chest, brother. I just want to say, first of all, thank you guys for all you guys did. I watched you guys last night, and I give you guys a lot of credit for staying up that late knowing you guys get up early in the morning. We didn't take a nap.
Starting point is 00:14:59 We was up since 4 a.m., but I enjoyed it, though. I know, I know, and I appreciate watching you guys. But this is why i want to go off my chest i want to go off my chest the fact that i love the breakfast club but y'all went so hard the republican party what happened is that i believe people started doing their own research when you had that guy byron on there and he mentioned the inflation things i think everybody started to like open their eyes i I believe most of the people, because I'm in these streets, they were really concerned about inflation.
Starting point is 00:15:29 When I talked to women at the grocery stores, most women like inflation, inflation, inflation. So I think the thing about it is that Trump went too hard on these Republican people. Y'all fact-checked him every two seconds. Even when Donald Trump, his daughter-in-law, she came up there, she did what she had to do. But I think the fact-checking y'all did was over the top. Even donkey the day for Trump, the day before, it was too much. So it was overkill to the point that people were like, why doesn't everybody come at them?
Starting point is 00:15:56 And they just start doing their research. I think there's a difference between coming at and fact-checking. Yeah, you're not supposed to fact-check people. And the reality is— No, no, no. Listen, this is what I'm trying to say. Okay. Listen, what I'm trying to say is that,
Starting point is 00:16:08 like, okay, so you have Donald Trump doing a lot there, and then you fact-check her out off the show so it looks bad. It didn't look like good journalism. I'm not saying you guys weren't right for what you did. It's that when it came to the Democratic Party, y'all was smooth,
Starting point is 00:16:22 y'all wasn't fact-checking, and y'all kind of hated people. But every Republican Party, it was a fat chicken, fat chicken, fat chicken. It was like this, you are the greatest at what you do, but you kept doing this. You kept saying, no, no, that's not true. That's not true.
Starting point is 00:16:36 It wasn't true. If something's not true, I gotta fact check it, my brother. But I will say this, Nancy Mace, we had Congresswoman Nancy Mays on. She's a Republican from South Carolina. That's the homie. Nancy Mays said that inflation was caused by both parties. And the reason we have inflation right now is because of all of that money that had to be given out during COVID.
Starting point is 00:16:59 All of those stimulus checks, all those PPP loans, that's what caused the inflation. Thank you, brother. Hello, who's this? This is Blue from Atlanta. Blue from Atlanta. Get it off your chest, Blue. Hey, Breakfast Club. I just want to say thank you for taking my phone call.
Starting point is 00:17:12 I just want to say to my black sisters and my black brothers, hey, keep your head up. Like Charlamagne said over and over again, this country continues to show us what it's really made of. But I want to say to people of color other than black people and poor white people, y'all overwhelmingly voted for Trump by like 50 to 40 percent. Guess what? Y'all about to F around and find out what this country is really made of. And black people, we already know. So just keep your head up and go make your money and just laugh at the results.
Starting point is 00:17:38 Thank y'all for taking my phone call. Thank you, brother. Get it off your chest. 800-585-1051 if you need to vent. Phone lines are wide open. Now we got Jess with the mess. Come on. I just want to say, too, I don't want to be pessimistic.
Starting point is 00:17:50 I don't want to be all doom and gloom this morning because the reality is, this is America. We all live in this country. I'm not rooting against this country. I'm not rooting for this country to fail. You know, I'm not rooting for Donald Trump to go in the White House and do all of the things that he told us he was going to do. I want him to actually
Starting point is 00:18:08 do the opposite. You know, I want us to come together as a country. I hope that, you know, he goes in there and doesn't seek revenge, but he goes in there
Starting point is 00:18:15 and really tries to right, you know, some of these wrongs that are out here. I hope that he does put more money in people's pockets. I hope that he does,
Starting point is 00:18:22 you know, secure the border. But I also hope he doesn't do all of the other wild hope that he does you know secure the border but i also hope he doesn't do all of the other wild things that he told us he was gonna do he was going to do you can't be mad at uh we the people for believing somebody when they tell us they're going to do certain things if somebody says yo i'm gonna give police uh immunity to do whatever they want why shouldn't we believe that person no i agree and and like you said this is the time to unite and and no i don this is the time to unite.
Starting point is 00:18:45 And no, I don't want the country to go bad. I'm not betting against the country. At the end of the day, we live here. My kids live here. That's right. One day we'll have grandkids and great grandkids. And you want this country to unite. You want this country to not be afraid.
Starting point is 00:18:58 You want this country, you want your kids to be as safe as possible. You want them to flourish. You want them to have money and opportunities. So we want this country to unite. And we already are in a space right now where, you know, women in this country
Starting point is 00:19:09 have less rights now than they did when I was born in 1978. Correct. So please, I don't want things to get worse. Well,
Starting point is 00:19:16 they probably will. Yeah. You asked me what was coming up in Just With The Mess. Yeah. I hear y'all. I don't feel anything of what y'all
Starting point is 00:19:23 are saying right now. Wait till you see the taxes you put on wigs. The tariffs that you're I hear y'all. I don't feel anything of what y'all are saying right now. At all. Wait till you see the taxes you put on wigs. The tariff that you gonna put on China. You know what's crazy? You know what's crazy? When you get flying, people know that you do. You don't pay for them.
Starting point is 00:19:36 So I don't care about the taxes. Oh, they gonna charge you. It's some deeper. No, they gonna charge you. I don't pay for them. They gonna charge you. I don't have to pay for them. Watch, ain't no more free.
Starting point is 00:19:43 How much it's gonna cost for your shots when you grow your hair back? Oh, I'm not even thinking about that. No, no, I'm not even thinking about that. Oh, you ain't doing that one yet. You're just going to focus on the skin care. But I'm not. I'm joking, but I'm not joking. I'm not worried about it because I'll pay for it.
Starting point is 00:19:55 At all. All right. All right. All right, gals. All right, gals. Chess with the messes up next. I mean, that's the first time I smiled this morning. So, look at you.
Starting point is 00:20:04 All right, gals. All right. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. All right. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
Starting point is 00:20:16 We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get to Jess with the mess with Laura La Rosa. The news is real, brother. Jess Hilarious, Jessica Robin Moore. Jess don't do no lie. Don't do no lie. She don't spell nobody. Worldwide Jess, worldwide mess. On The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:20:34 She's a coach of shoes. With Lauren, Lauren LaRosa. I'm back. And I got the mess. Talk to me. Okay, y'all. So, Trump is president. People begin celebrating online.
Starting point is 00:20:48 You know, Lil Pump, who was very loud and proud for Trump this whole time. He posted about, you know, Trump winning. I also saw a 50 Cent post as well. 50 Cent posted some photos of him and Trump. And the caption was, I don't care how the fight goes. I'm leaving with the winner. I still don't know what's going on. uh amber rose was at the party last night um the party she was at uh trump's watch party last night you guys know she's been was campaigning for him
Starting point is 00:21:14 as well too so there are you know some people are celebrating um i don't know y'all i have a lot of questions right now like i just what's your question number one i want to know what this bite bite is gonna have to say something biden what does he say biden is one of the problems here and the reason biden is one of the problems here because biden should have let everybody know he was just a transitional president he should have let everybody know he was just going to do four years and uh get on about his business and you know biden should have dropped out a year ago or two years ago and they should have made him drop out a year ago or two years ago or not drop out but to say he was not going to run again so she could have so people not even whoever could have prepared right could have prepared they could have did a
Starting point is 00:21:51 proper primary you know uh you know pick the candidate i still think you know the bp probably would have been the best choice but you know i just yeah i think biden is one of the bigger issues here that that people aren't going to want to talk about, but they should. No, they have to. At this point, the dancing around for me is like very tiring because this morning I'm up and I'm thinking about a lot of stuff.
Starting point is 00:22:12 Like I take care of my mom and my grandmother. Their health care is on. We don't even know what the health care is about to do. We were left with concepts of a plan. Right, concepts of a plan. So we don't know. We just got to hope Trump's going to be a good person
Starting point is 00:22:23 to people who need affordable health care. There's a lot. We should hope that. I don't want. We just got to hope Trump's going to be a good person to people who need affordable health care. There's a lot. We should hope that. I don't want this to be the beginning of Donald Trump's revenge tour. I'm hoping that it's not. I'm hoping this is the golden age of America, like he said. I'm hoping that he doesn't do anything he said he was going to do other than get the economy right and secure the border. But do we focus on Biden and those type of things?
Starting point is 00:22:43 And do we care if he speaks? Or do we start, you know, thinking for the the future for the next four years what's going on now i will say um so last night we did the live stream from harvard university and uh collaboration with the native land podcast and we were talking about like just the straight talk like how you know people right now um just what what gets them and i think that that's a lot of the reason why we're seeing trump as president right now because they straight they talk straight to a lot of the issues that people feel politics is dead yeah so let's take a listen uh tiffany cross last night was having we were having a conversation about where we think people
Starting point is 00:23:18 stand and why they stand there and she brought up that you know right now she feels like people are being dumbed down let's take a listen I'm going to say something that people don't like to hear. What's that? Most people in this country are not intellectually curious about a lot of things. And I, as a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions, but you just don't know what is going to come for you. Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself and leaning into her dreams.
Starting point is 00:23:47 I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves. For self-preservation and protection, it was literally that step by step. And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going. This increment of small, determined moments. Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of love. I forgive myself. It's okay. Like grace.
Starting point is 00:24:15 Have grace with yourself. You're trying your best. And you're going to figure out the rhythm of this thing. Alicia Keys, like you've never heard her before. Listen to On Purpose with Jay Shetty on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. What's up, y'all? This is Questlove, and I'm here to tell you about a new podcast I've been working on
Starting point is 00:24:35 with the Story Pirates and John Glickman called Historical Records. It's a family-friendly podcast. Yeah, you heard that right. A podcast for all ages. One you can listen to and enjoy with your kids starting on September 27th. I'm going to toss it over to the host of Historical Records, Nimany, to tell you all about it. Make sure you check it out. Hey, y'all. Nimany here. I'm the host of a brand-new history podcast for kids and families called Historical Records.
Starting point is 00:25:05 Historical Records brings history to life through hip-hop. Each episode is about a different inspiring figure from history, like this one about Claudette Colvin, a 15-year-old girl in Alabama who refused to give up her seat on the city bus nine whole months before Rosa Parks did the same thing. Check it. And it began with me. Did you know, did you know?
Starting point is 00:25:37 I wouldn't give up my seat. Nine months before Rosa, it was Claudette Colvin. Get the kids in your life excited about history by tuning in to Historical Records.

I think Trump's rise to power has coincided with the dumbing down of the American electorate and the confluence of things that led to that.
Starting point is 00:29:02 If you ask most people, where are you getting your information from most people are not reading papers most people are not even curious enough to read a website i read probably eight papers every day but there are things that i when you read the article and then you see what's on television it is a snapshot of something yeah but people don't see that they'll see that schools are closed because immigrants stay in the school. That's my frustration. Hotels are closed. But we can do this all day. But y'all missing one thing. You don't have to be intelligent to know that you can't eat. Listen, man, I totally, I'm not going to say I totally disagree with what Tiffany was saying,
Starting point is 00:29:36 but you don't have to be intelligent to know you can't pay your bills. You don't have to be intelligent to know you can't afford groceries. Where I do agree with Tiffany, if you did a little research, if you were a little more intellectually curious, you would know why inflation was high and you would know inflation was actually the lowest been in a couple of years. But that still don't matter if you still can't afford the things you need. You don't have to know how to use a bunch of 16 letter words to see billions going to war. I want to say I'm broke. I want to say I can't afford eggs. I can't afford milk. I can't afford orange juice. Health care is too high. I'm scared to go to the doctor because i don't want the bills later on yes like you said you don't need none of those you see the billions going to wars all over the world you see the billions going
Starting point is 00:30:11 to my trillions and you know that money isn't going to your communities you don't have to be a scholar to understand that no and most people especially the people that like need things to be affordable they don't go off of uh like they're not sitting and looking at the polls and the facts they're literally just this is how this is every single day growling every single day i might get evicted you know i'm just people right now the first was just last week and the landlord is like it's the sixth right now so you got the late fees or you gotta go today today that's right right now yeah i'm i don't know y'all i know y'all are trying to be like very optimistic let's look forward but i don't i've been very nervous especially as a woman um you worried about them tariffs on them wigs damn you saw that you
Starting point is 00:30:54 know what i know listen when you said it i was like okay this is being funny from china but then i was thinking like yo everything do also. Like, everything comes from overseas. We sell merch on my website. I do everything overseas. You wear that Timo? They gonna kill you on that Timo. I don't wear. Envy, you said I wear what?
Starting point is 00:31:14 Because Trump, Kamala, whoever in office, I will still come across and say, but you said I do what? Not a machine baby now. Don't do that. Because we came in one day as twins. So now a machine baby. Oh, man. That's crazy. Ain't nothing wrong with Timo. Don't do that. Because we came in one day as twins, so now I'm a machine baby. Oh, man. That's crazy. Ain't nothing wrong with Sheen, though.
Starting point is 00:31:28 Ain't nothing wrong with Lil Timo. The lighter people then got in the office, and now look at you. You're over the feelings, so I think you can say what you want. I wanted some Congo pants from Timo before. I bet you did. I bet you did. They really did look like the Gordon Goddard. If y'all are of a certain age, you remember when Theo had that Gordon Gartrell shirt?
Starting point is 00:31:46 That's how them cargo pants had looked. Yo, you know what's so funny? I see Charlamagne order a pair. I said, $6. I said, let me order some shorts. Man, one leg was longer than the other. I ordered four of them. Did they have the little waist thing where you could snatch your waist?
Starting point is 00:31:59 Man, they had suspenders. They was cargo pants with the suspenders on. I could have literally put suspenders on my shoulder. It was bad. One side had three pockets. The other side had two pockets. I was like, man. Salute the team with them.
Starting point is 00:32:10 They're going to be $20 when Trump puts it down. The same cargo pants that were $6 are going to be $20. All right. Well, that is just with the mess. Now, when we come back, we got front page news. And then we want to take your calls. 800-585-1051. We'd love to talk to you if you're just getting up.
Starting point is 00:32:25 I don't know if you know, but Kamala Harris didn't win last night. Listen, we just got to come up with a plan. Because at the end of the day, America spoke loud and clear. Like, you know, it was a free and fair election. And, you know, people went out there and they voted for the candidate that they wanted to vote for. And now that candidate is our president. You can say whatever you want. Oh, that's not my president.
Starting point is 00:32:43 Yes, it is. And the things that they're going to do in the White House with control of the Senate is going to affect us all. So what are we doing? All right. Well, we'll take your calls
Starting point is 00:32:51 when we come back. It's The Breakfast Club. Good morning. The Breakfast Club. Your mornings will never be the same. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha Guy.
Starting point is 00:33:02 We are The Breakfast Club. Law and La Rosa filling in for Jess. And let's get in some front page news. What's up, Morgan? Hey, y'all. Hey. So, yeah. Donald Trump, he's going to be the next president again.
Starting point is 00:33:14 But I'm not going to get too much into that. The Republicans, though, have taken control of the Senate with some crucial wins. And there are two senator-elects who made history in this election. But before I get into the Senate races, let's talk about Vice President Kamala Harris. She held an election night watch party at Howard University last night, and we were all out there waiting for her to address the crowd. And it wasn't until about 12.45 a.m. this morning last night, however you want to put it, it was late, that someone from the Harris campaign addressed the crowd. Campaign co-chair Cedric Richmond told supporters gathered at the Harris election night watch party at her alma mater and HBCU Howard University in D.C.
Starting point is 00:33:52 that Vice President Harris will speak to the crowds on Wednesday morning. Let's hear those comments from Cedric Richmond. I want to say good evening to all of the Harris campaign, the campaign family. Thank you for all that you have done. Thank you for being here. Thank you for believing in the promise of America. We will continue overnight to fight to make sure that every vote is counted, that every voice has spoken, so you won't hear from the vice president tonight no in fact um
Starting point is 00:34:28 again she's expected to speak today and the same spot on the campus of howard university or at least that's what um was the last word on that um of course this comes as harris did not fare as well as she'd hope in swing states listen Salute to Vice President Kamala Harris. She has nothing to be ashamed about in this moment. She was the best possible candidate to run, especially under these circumstances. She did a great job and ran a great campaign over the last hundred days.
Starting point is 00:34:55 I know that everybody was looking at President Biden as a hero when they were saying, oh, he stepped down, he stepped down. President Biden would have been a hero to me if he would have told everybody, hey, I'm only going to be here for four years. And then that way they could have prepared properly, you know, for a new Democratic nominee in 2024. So I really, you know, I hope that when we look back on this in hindsight, we can really look at this in this total,
Starting point is 00:35:17 its total context and say, you know what, this guy should have stepped down two years. He should have told us that he was going to step down two years prior or at least a year prior to give them an opportunity to actually have a real primary and pick a real candidate. So that's why I was never big on that whole Joe Biden is a hero talk, especially being that I was one of the people that was saying he should have stepped down, you know, a year and some change ago. Well, let me ask you a question. Do you think that she should try to run again in four years? I don't know. I don't even want again in four years i don't i don't know i don't even want to think about that yeah don't even don't even put me in that don't even i don't want to think about that no one put me in that it's crazy you live here don't put me in it you still gonna be here sir i'm not looking forward to no 2028 let's deal with the 2025
Starting point is 00:35:59 that counters what you just said you're saying you did. You got to say that counters. That counters what you just said. You're saying you're not looking forward to 2028 with the Democratic Party needs to go ahead and start. I'm thinking about now. I want it. Like I said, I don't want to be pessimistic. I don't want to be doom and gloom because the reality is Donald Trump is our president now. And whether you like it or not, he's my president. He's your president.
Starting point is 00:36:22 He is the president of the United States of America. So I'm focused on, you know, what we can do right now to make sure he does right by the American people. All right. So as as previously mentioned, Harris has not yet given her concession concession speech. Republicans, again, have taken control of the Senate with some crucial wins. Bernie Moreno in Ohio, Jim Justice in West Virginia, Deb Fisher, who held on to her seat in Nebraska. The GOP needed to flip only two seats while holding on to the rest. Control of the House is still up for grabs, although this president elect president elect Trump has said that the Republican Party has grabbed the House. That's not quite the case as of yet. But the topic, but back on the topic of the U.S. Senate, Senator Alex Angela also Brooks of Maryland and Lisa Blunt Rochester of Delaware made history yesterday. They'll be the first black women to serve in the Senate at defeating Republican Eric Hansen and independent Mike Katz in the open
Starting point is 00:37:25 seat that's being vacated by retiring Democratic Senator Tom Carper. So shout out, Delaware. And of course, my hometown or my home state, Angela also Brooks made history as the first black woman to represent Maryland in the Senate after defeating Republican Larry Hogan, the Prince George's County executive. She's replacing Senator Ben Cardin, who is retiring. Now, she addressed a crowd in Prince George's County yesterday, and here's what she had to say. Angela also brought.
Starting point is 00:37:49 Now, it's remarkable to think that in two years, America will celebrate its 250th birthday. And in all those years, there have been more than 2,000 people who have served in the United States Senate. And only three have looked like me. And so I want to salute all of those who came before me, who made it possible for me to stand on this stage tonight, whose sacrifices and stories I will continue to carry with me. And from the bottom of my heart, I thank each and every Marylander to serve this state. My hometown is the honor of a lifetime.
Starting point is 00:38:38 Well, congrats to them. But just keep in mind, Republicans, after last night, they have the majority in the U.S. Senate. So they're going to do what they want when they want because they move with a united front. You don't ever have to worry about what those 51 Republicans in the U.S. Senate are going to vote. They're all going to vote together every single time. That's right. It's a victory, but it's a short one, short-lived victory. So former Maryland Governor Hogan told supporters he spoke with also Brooks and congratulated her on a hard fought victory.
Starting point is 00:39:06 And he said, quote, regardless of who you voted for, we can all take pride in the election of the first black woman to represent Maryland. So, I mean, you know, he got it. So Carol Mosley Braun was the first black woman elected to senior chamber in 1992. But it wasn't until 2016 that Harris, Kamala Harris, became the second woman voted to the Senate. LaFonza Butler was appointed last year, so none overlapped. And, of course, also Brooks and Rochester are now sister senators to be. And marijuana was also on the ballot in four states on Election Day. In Florida, where marijuana is already legal, voters rejected a measure to legalize recreational marijuana.
Starting point is 00:39:44 Similar questions in North and South Dakota were also rejected. In Nebraska, the voters said yes to making medical marijuana legal. I was shocked that they voted against marijuana in Florida. In Florida, right? I would just think that in 2024, marijuana would be something that people would just want to make legal all across the board. It seems like it, right? Yeah. Guess not in Florida.
Starting point is 00:40:04 Ain't meth legal in Florida? No, meth is not legal. yeah that's not in florida ain't that legal in florida no meph is not legal in florida it's not legal anyway meph is not legal so all those hard drugs legal in florida but weed not i don't think any of those drugs are legal they be smoking meph in florida like it's legal yeah they might be smoking it but it's not legal and them young boys in florida be popping perks like it's legal too well perks are legal when it's prescribed by a doctor what about when you're just trying to go to the moon that's not well get high and take a whole chopper to your face jesus you over here online this morning i mean do what you gotta do to get through the day all right well
Starting point is 00:40:37 that's all thank you morgan it was great seeing you yesterday it was great seeing y'all too we tired or not okay that's hey morgan you feel stupid doing that little beyonce dance huh now i told y'all not to do it oh no beyonce who gonna have a dance party with beyonce and look you did you feel stupid eating them chicken nuggets what you talk about no that's your first i needed a full stomach i told nala to archive that damn video all right thank you all right so now what we doing we open up the phone lines? That's all we can do, my brother. That's all we here to do here on The Breakfast Club, man.
Starting point is 00:41:11 We here to talk to our listeners. And the people who voted for Trump, feel free to call in, too, because we know some of our listeners voted for Trump as well. That's right. You know? He is the president of the United States of America, and we all are American citizens. 800-585-1051. I do have a question. Do you think Kamala didn't win
Starting point is 00:41:25 because she was a woman, she was a black woman, or the fact that just people didn't relate? There's no one thing. Like, I know all the pundits and everybody today are going to try to point to one thing and say, well,
Starting point is 00:41:35 was it because she was a woman? Was it because she was a woman of color? Was it because of her running mate? What was, like, but it's a number of things. It's not just one thing. I feel like the biggest thing was time, in my opinion. Nah, I think the biggest thing was time, in my opinion.
Starting point is 00:41:45 I think the biggest thing was the economy. And I think that Democrats just don't, you know, they just got a problem with messaging. And even though since World War II the economy always does better under a Democratic president, they just don't know how to convey to the American people that we can put more money in your pocket. Even though Hillary lost, she still won a
Starting point is 00:42:02 popular vote when she lost, what, like, eight years ago. You know what I mean? She still won a popular vote, but she just didn't win an electoral vote. I'm so confused because it felt so like Kamala is here, the change, people are happy, and then she loses the popular vote. Our barbecue, our film reunion, our HBCU. We were happy to have a candidate that had a pulse. Joe Biden was dead. Somebody that could walk on assistance. pulse. Joe Biden was dead. Somebody that could walk on assistance. Dead.
Starting point is 00:42:26 That's all I said. Joe Biden was dead. So the fact we had somebody who had a pulse, we was like, yes, they're alive. All right. Well, let's open up the phone line. Let's discuss. 800-585-1051. It's The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 00:42:37 Good morning. The Breakfast Club. It's topic time. Call 800-585-1051 to join in to the discussion with The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha God. We are The Breakfast Club. Lauren LaRosa filling in for Jess.
Starting point is 00:43:03 We are broadcasting from the DMV area this morning. We were out at Howard University last night broadcasting live. Salute to our family, Tiffany Cross, Andrew Gillum, and Angela Rye. Thank you for having us. The Native Land Podcast. Make sure you subscribe to the Native Land Podcast on the Reason Choice Media iHeartRadio Podcast Network. That's right. We're opening up the phone lines just to get your thoughts. 800-585-1051.
Starting point is 00:43:23 It was a long night. A lot of you waking up right now trying to see exactly what happened. My mother just texted me. My heart is broken. God help us. I've been getting a lot of those texts this morning from family members. God is the best author and finisher, you know, and that's why this morning I came on the radio and I said, I don't want to be pessimistic. I don't want to be doom and gloom because the reality is we are all Americans and that is who the American people went out there and chose to be our next president. And, you know, the only thing that I can hope is that all of the nasty things Donald Trump says he wants to do,
Starting point is 00:43:53 whether it's locking up, you know, his political opponents, locking up, you know, the journalists, you know, like the mass deportations, even though, you know, there is going to be some deportation, but I'm just talking about mass deportation. All of these things that he talked about wanting to do, I pray that he doesn't do. I pray that he goes in the White House and it's not a revenge tour. He really wants to do what he says, which is put more money in people's pockets, secure the border and make this the golden age of America. Me too, because I got Meek Mill's braids under here, but I ain't trying to be sporting them in jail because I go to work.
Starting point is 00:44:23 You ain't even got to worry about that. You're going to have to Meek Mill's braidsids regardless because that wig that you got on right now, if he puts some tariffs on China, it's going to cost about $760. For that? How much it cost, ma'am? You pay a good like $600, $700. Oh, so $1,824? Yeah, $2,400.
Starting point is 00:44:38 The type of hair. Oh, $2,400 easily. How many bundles? This is six. Oh, my God. No, five. We use five. About five. Oh, $2,400 easily. How many bundles? This is six. Oh, my God. No, five. We use five. About five.
Starting point is 00:44:46 Oh, my God. You're going to have to get another job on top of this job to pay for that. But let's go to the phone lines. Hello, who's this? Oh, is this me? It's Jay. Hey, good morning. Where are you calling from?
Starting point is 00:44:57 Hey, I'm calling from Massachusetts. Okay. What's your thoughts this morning waking up? How are you feeling? Oh, man. Stop the steals. That's really it. They didn't steal anything. They didn't steal anything. Come on, let's not start that.
Starting point is 00:45:14 He had 71 million votes. She had 65 million votes. She said, I know, I know. And it's a huge difference from what we thought was going to go down. But I mean, a lot of what Harris ran on, we have here in Massachusetts. We are a majority Democratic state. We have the home, the down payment assistance. We have the Medicare PCA programs. It's like the rest of the country. Don't y'all want this stuff too?
Starting point is 00:45:37 Very, very confusing. Like my 12-year-old son, he heard me up all night running, yelling at the TV. He went to school this morning in tears thinking he was really gonna be picking cotton because that's all i kept saying is we're gonna wake up poor kid how old is he wait poor kid 12 years old gonna go to golden's teachers we're gonna be picking cotton soon teacher well i will say california 3.8 million people in California voted to keep slavery legal.
Starting point is 00:46:06 I don't believe that. California Proposition 6, prohibit slavery and involuntary servitude. 3.8 million people in Cali voted to keep it legal. Go look it up. That's somebody's neighbor voted for that. Well, thank you, Mama, for calling. Thank you, guys. I just want to give a shout out to my son, Jada.
Starting point is 00:46:22 I love you, baby. Have a great day. I'll see you today. Do not let these white folks get you a lot of character. All right, tell him he's not gonna be picking cotton. Y'all keep talking about the white folks, but I'm telling you, the Republicans had a very racially
Starting point is 00:46:34 diverse, racially diverse coalition last night that voted for them. It wasn't just white people. Let's go to another line. Hello, who's this? It's Chandler from Columbus, Ohio. Chandler, what up, brother? What up, what up? Just want to say it's a sad day, but me living in Ohio,
Starting point is 00:46:51 it's so many racist bigots. I never thought Harris had a chance, like ever. It was set up for Trump to win. The dude got 34 felons and still was able to run. So I don't know why we're acting so surprised that he won. I don't think it's a surprise. I just think people are still slightly shocked because, you know, all his rhetoric. He got even more toxic since 2016, since 2020, on top of the two impeachments,
Starting point is 00:47:19 on top of all the criminal charges, on top of, you know, Bro, he's going to want revenge. He is going to want revenge. Like they put him in court. They fingerprinted him. They did all that stuff. They put charges. He feels like the charges are not warranted.
Starting point is 00:47:33 He's going to want his revenge on those people. I don't feel like we were numb to all of that, though. Like, no, better not. We people. I feel like people. Well, why is Trump our president? If no, because people don't care about none of those issues. They care about what's going on in their pockets.
Starting point is 00:47:48 They care about not feeling safe because of the border. And he has been able to tap into that and speak to that. He's been able to speak to people's grievances better than Democrats have. That's just the truth. I agree with that. If I was Donald Trump, I'm tweeting today. All my charges better be dropped by Friday at 5 p.m. And I'm putting better in capital. charges better be dropped by Friday at 5 p.m. And I'm putting better in capital letters.
Starting point is 00:48:06 It's 7 p.m. Friday? Okay. I was trying to be happy. That would be funny if you did that, though. All my charges better be dropped by 7 p.m. Friday or else. Or else. Oh, Lord have mercy. Oh, my goodness.
Starting point is 00:48:18 Don't give me any ideas. Oh, Lord have mercy. 800-585-1051. What are your thoughts? You're waking up this morning. I don't know if you're just waking up and you're turning on the radio, but Donald Trump has been elected, well, will be elected the president of the United States of America.
Starting point is 00:48:31 All right, so we're just asking, what are your thoughts? How are you feeling? Call us up right now. As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions, but you just don't know what is going to come for you. Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt, learning to trust herself and leaning into her dreams. I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves.
Starting point is 00:48:57 For self-preservation and protection, it was literally that step by step. And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going. This increment of small, determined moments. Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of love. I forgive myself. It's okay. Like grace. Have grace with yourself.

Starting point is 00:54:29 the electoral votes and the popular votes last night. Well, they don't know if she's it looks like she's going to lose the popular vote. All the votes still haven't been counted yet. Right now, I think he has 71 million. She has 65. We are actually broadcasting from the DMV today. We were at Howard University broadcasting live.
Starting point is 00:54:45 But we're just taking your calls this morning. Hello, who's this? Good morning. Good morning. How y'all doing today? What's up, brother? What's going on, man? What you thinking this morning, brother?
Starting point is 00:54:53 But I'm trying to, first off, shout out to Kamala. Kamala, she did a thing. Shout out to her. Shout out to y'all, too. Shout out to y'all. But my beef is, I'm trying to see Trump a felon. Am I correct? Yes. to see Trump a felon. Am I correct? Yes.
Starting point is 00:55:07 I'm also a felon. I'm trying to see how can Trump become president as a felon. But I didn't get out of prison rehabilitating myself. I'm a truck driver now. But I constantly get turned down for certain jobs because of my parents. But I can be president, though, right? What do you check on the U.S. census, sir? What's your race?
Starting point is 00:55:25 He's black. I'm black. African-American. census, sir? What's your race? He's black, sir. I'm black. African-American. Okay. Stop calling up here asking answers. Right? You know what that is. Why?
Starting point is 00:55:34 But that's a good question. Trump is supposed to be sentenced in the next couple of weeks, right? Boy, please. Is it a good question? He's supposed to be legally, right? I told y'all last night. Trump got something greater than white privilege i i've i've seen trump make billionaire powerful white men feel like n words
Starting point is 00:55:52 he's marginalized those people think about the people like jeff bezos who wouldn't even for the first time ever let his newspaper endorse any candidate if it was against trump let's think about that yeah i've never seen a man marginalized uh other other powerful men the way Donald Trump had he knew something that that that we obviously didn't know y'all talking about did he got tapes on all them folks hello who's this hey this is Rachel hey Rachel where you calling from calling from Canton okay Canton Ohio how you feeling this morning waking up ma'am my anxiety is high This is Rachel. Hey, Rachel. Where you calling from? Calling from Canton. Canton, Ohio. Okay, Canton, Ohio. How you feeling this morning waking up?
Starting point is 00:56:27 Ma'am, my anxiety is high. I'm mad. I'm peed off. I'm just confused, really, because the last time that we was dealing with him, we almost had a civil war. I mean, him and his racist people had their Confederate flags up storming the Capitol. So the fact that we're back in the same position to put this right like there's something more to it there's got to be something more to it like this is not gonna go too well like and and i don't know about anybody else but my son is 17 he'll be 18 in 11 months and he wants to join the military he's been in jared to see his
Starting point is 00:56:59 whole life him as a black man he can't join no military under trump's ruling like that's not gonna happen nah i know mad people that um they were giving more money for you to resign back into military air force or whatever this year because people didn't want to do it but now it's like you don't have a choice like if you're going you're going oh you know there was no wars we just not like i mean we're not we're not we're not at in no wars right now people just scared but we weren't in no wars under under Trump either. So I don't know why that's a concern. Because you just never know.
Starting point is 00:57:31 He's too hot-headed. And that's the part that scares me. I mean, realistically, with my son joining the military, we could have always been in the war, no matter who was in office, because anything would happen. But he's a hothead. He'll go in and just demolish something because they don't like what he says. I mean, even if you listen to the when they had the debate, he literally said that everybody just don't talk right. You either put it to him like you that they're going to do what I say or or that's it. We ain't dealing with you. And that causes chaos. This is why you don't deal with other countries in that way. There has to be a level of peace. You can't come in like that.
Starting point is 00:58:01 So am I saying I want him a part the the craziness or what if there is a civil war and my son has been listening to the military that puts him at either you need to fight for the white people or you you go to prison that's where that puts him at so it's it's a little deeper than even what other countries it's the civil war we could be in this is serious and i don't think people are are taking this as serious as it is you're not you're not wrong thank you rachel i do want us to at all. I do want us to just really take a step back though. I know we're going to be so quick to say,
Starting point is 00:58:30 oh, everybody that supports Trump is racist and everybody that supports Trump is big as yeah, there's something to that, but man, he tapped into something else because this is one of the most racially diverse Republican coalitions ever. You got black people who voted for him. You got Latinos who voted for him. You got people you got black people who voted for him you got
Starting point is 00:58:45 latinos who voted for him you got people in the lgbtq community who voted for him i'm telling you man people don't care about those cultural issues as much as they care about what's going on in their pockets people want to have more money in their pockets and they want to know how they can feel safe and he has tapped into some type of energy and he knows how to speak to people's grievances better than democrats do and it's worked for him i will say this you know we had this conversation yesterday about does celebrity push people to vote but i guess obviously it doesn't right because those celebrities are already rich don't nobody want to hear no rich person telling them who they should vote for when they feel the person that they're telling them to vote for is the reason that they
Starting point is 00:59:23 are in such bad financial circumstances that's really it's really just that they're telling them to vote for is the reason that they are in such bad financial circumstances. That's really, it's really just that simple. Let's go to the phone lines. Hello, who's this? My name is. Hey, what's up, man? What's your thoughts this morning, brother? Man, I'm a bit disappointed, but I kind of expected Trump to win.
Starting point is 00:59:37 But I just, I really got one serious question. How do they go about convicting a president-elect? They're not. They're not. They're not. They're not. They're not. They're not. It's not happening. It's not happening.
Starting point is 00:59:52 Okay? It's not happening. Imagine they go try to arrest Donald Trump, and Donald Trump says, I'm not going. I'm president-elect. How dare you? And then now it's this big standoff. And now you got all of these militias of people who voted for Donald Trump coming to his defense. Just the president, the military, damn, they're going to be on his side at this point.
Starting point is 01:00:11 You're not arresting Donald Trump at this point. That's over. It's not going to happen. Those charges are done. Like you said, I ain't never seen nobody above the law like that, man. Me neither. Untouchable, for real. I ain't never seen it either.
Starting point is 01:00:24 All right, let's take one more call. Hello, who's this? Good morning, K-Joe from VA. Hey, what part of Virginia? I'm actually from Hampton. Oh, from Hampton. Okay, don't say it like that. You're from Hampton. Hampton Roads here. Come on, it's 757.
Starting point is 01:00:37 Good morning. How are you feeling this morning? Good morning, you guys. Honestly, I'm not surprised by everything or how everything went down. I feel like with Kamala, Joe didn't do her justice. He did not give her a warm handoff. And I feel like it was botched from the beginning because of that. Maybe if he did that the way he should have and handed her that when he was done the first time it probably would have
Starting point is 01:01:06 went better but that that was a little too late i agree that was a little too late i agree with you there's so many people i mean listen i don't want to point the finger at nobody i think that you know the democrats needed to do some real soul searching and look inside of themselves to see what it is that they're not doing and what they're not saying that's not connect that's not connecting with people but you're right man joe biden didn't do the democratic party no justice joe biden didn't do america justice because joe biden should have said at all he wasn't trying to go nowhere you were saying we shouldn't focus on that but i think that they should i think that this should be a real lesson in like telling the truth and being honest about things and where it gets you
Starting point is 01:01:43 if you don't for the democratic thank you mama he should have said i'm gonna be a one-term president this is just a transitional thing i think he thought he was gonna win i think i think he thought he was fine and i think he thought he had a great chance 100 years old in 2020 okay he should have known bro we've been saying that for two years and for two years we've been saying that we've been attacked right when he was shaking people's hands that weren't there when he was falling up the stairs falling down the stairs when he was shaking people's hands that weren't there, when he was falling up the stairs, falling down the stairs, when he was riding the bike and falling and talking
Starting point is 01:02:09 to people that weren't in the room. We've said that. This is Joe Biden's fault in a lot of ways and it's Democrats' fault in a lot of ways because Joe Biden should have been said, hey, I'm not going to be here to run in 2024. Let me give y'all ample time to prepare.
Starting point is 01:02:26 Right. Well, what's the moral of the story if there is a moral? The moral of the story is we're just starting. We got to unite. Yeah, but we're literally just starting. This conversation is an ongoing conversation because whether we like it or not, Donald Trump is the 47th president of the United States of America.
Starting point is 01:02:42 And, you know, at some point, we can't continue to be the divided states of America. At some point, like, we all do have to come together because what I have realized from this election is we all want the same things. We want more money in our pocket
Starting point is 01:02:53 and we want to know how we're going to stay safe, how we're going to keep our family safe. That's right. That's it. I think tomorrow is all the natural hair care girlies, y'all better suit up.
Starting point is 01:03:01 No, hey, boo, text. It's about to be your time. What is hey, boo, text? When they text you, when your hairdresser texts you, hey, boo, she about to be your time what is he a boo text when they text you when your hairdresser texts you hey boo she about to cancel oh so all the natural hair girlies and y'all need to back away from them hey boo text and suit up it is your time because if the price of hair and all that nobody's not about to be them so into the wigs i thought that was another brand from china you were shouting out no the girls that get it get it the girls that get it
Starting point is 01:03:23 they listen the hey boo text is a little traumatizing, but that's a story for another day. All right. Well, we got Jess with the mess coming up. What are we talking about? We do. We're going to get into some positive results.

Starting point is 01:07:25 When we were walking in the Kamala thing yesterday, remember, I was like, oh, my God, she got a paternity result. I had no idea who you were talking about. I'm 46. You're talking above Unk Head right now. Okay. Lauren, I don't know who you're talking about. Just say, Unk, help Unk out.

I feel very weird, though, reporting about this. And Trump is about to, our world is going down. I'm it. Go ahead. This is the only thing that made me happy this morning.

Why them D's wasn't on fire last night? Them R's look like they was on fire last night. I ain't see no D's on fire.
Starting point is 01:08:29 Them D's ain't come through nowhere. Them D's ain't come through in Pennsylvania. Them D's ain't come through in Michigan. Them D's, I ain't expect them to come through in Georgia. That's crazy because the Pennsylvania D's normally be hitting. The huh? Nothing. Which is that?

What are y'all saying okay continue on man uh well i will say uh by law in louisiana where she lives her ex will appear on the birth certificate unless she does certain things in court to make sure that he doesn't fight you too long gypsy rose okay all right do y'all care about diddy still trump gonna pardon diddy you think so that's what's gonna happen what's the what give me what's the what you got
Starting point is 01:09:13 on so they was that you know there's been reports that diddy actually was eligible to vote from prison well you need we needed him well we don't know who he voted for though we do not know who he voted for so the way that this goes is you know he's in mbc brooklyn he would have had that voted wherever his home state is so it probably would have been florida or california he would have had to request an absentee ballot the absentee ballot would have been given to him he would have to fill it out and mail it from the federal prison and then it would have been counted and i will say this is not just because he's diddy this is a thing like because diddy has not been charged with anything he can vote and so can other inmates there are other inmates who voted in this election
Starting point is 01:09:52 um because they were not convicted of anything so we don't know who did he voted for but did he could have voted who do you think he gonna say now yes he's gonna say voted for trial okay yeah unless he yeah of course he's gonna say voted for trump well i also will say too remember um yesterday when we were streaming with the native land podcast we were talking about that joe rogan sit down with elon musk and i was saying that you know i think that that interview i said just yesterday i said i feel like that interview you know i saw it have an impact on people like people were talking did y'all watch it or no i didn't watch it i just heard people talking i watched parts of people were saying like yo elon really sealed the deal
Starting point is 01:10:27 for trump i didn't watch the interview i heard about it okay so that's one piece of the puzzle now y'all remember puzzle y'all remember when j-lo came out a couple days ago and was like y'all need to go vote for kamala yes because so basically after j-lo came out and said that then elon musk went on something happened on the news again what y'all looking at no i'm just watching don't scare me i thought trump was up there saying like i don't know something um so after j-lo sat down i'm sorry after j-lo came out and said that elon musk sat down with joe rogan and said y'all don't even need to listen to j-lo don't vote for who she's telling you to vote for kamala because she didn't even warn us about diddy let's take a listen it's just amazing how many people in the diddy party list that are supporting kamala yeah seriously it's like publicly openly like all in it's like jlo like it was was like
Starting point is 01:11:11 his ex-girlfriend and it's like not deciding she's like warning people against trump i'm like well wait a second so how many people did she warn against diddy right oh zero okay well uh maybe we shouldn't trust her opinion did you see see the Babylon Bees take on it? Did you see the Babylon Bees fight? Babylon Bees was something. Diddy's ex-girlfriend urges Americans to trust her judgment. Yeah. Well, you could compare the Diddy party list to the Epstein party list.
Starting point is 01:11:36 Go on. The only difference is that the people that are on the Epstein party list, nobody will care about. That's just the reality of the situation. Because, you know, they put out something that said Jeffrey Epstein was like, oh, Donald Trump is my best friend or whatever, been my best friend for however many years.
Starting point is 01:11:48 Nobody care. As long as we didn't lose this because of the Diddy Party. That's it. We didn't. You know what? They lost this because of the economy.
Starting point is 01:11:56 It's really just that simple. I don't know why we keep complicating this. People can't afford to pay for it now. Oh my goodness. People will forget what you did.
Starting point is 01:12:01 People will forget what you said. But they'll never forget how you made them feel four years ago when people were getting them stimulus checks and then PVP loans. It just is what it is. People feel like financially they were better off. You know, people care about money and they care about safety.
Starting point is 01:12:15 And they feel like, you know, things are out of control with the border. And they watched all of that money go to, you know, the border situation. It's just really simple. Well, let me ask you a question. Last night when we were doing the broadcast, we were talking about all the black grandmas that were praying. My grandma was praying. Don't talk crazy because she's listening.
Starting point is 01:12:34 She's on her way from her apartment. I ain't just talking about your grandma. I'm talking about, just think about that. Every black grandma in America collectively was praying. But let me tell you something. God is the best author and finisher. I'm going to tell you all that over and over.
Starting point is 01:12:48 God is the best author and finisher. And I don't know what God is trying to tell us right now. But boy, a bunch of people in this country and this country as a whole need to do some soul searching. I'll tell you that much. I thank God about the shows. We really got money because we're about to get on up out of here. The rest of us are going to be stuck. You think God can't buy money?
Starting point is 01:13:01 Nobody going nowhere. You said you was leaving. What did I say then? Nobody going nowhere. I said you was leaving. What did I say then? Nobody going nowhere. I didn't say that. I meant leaving the hotel, Lauren. No. What are you talking about?
Starting point is 01:13:12 You meant leaving Howard's campus. That's not true. You said you was going to Ghana. I stuck out of there. I probably am for the holidays. Because I remember when you said it, I'm like, dang, I could never uproot my family
Starting point is 01:13:22 and go to Ghana. You got money. I didn't say that. I did say that, but I mean... You didn't mean it. No, I didn't mean it. I'm like, dang, I could never uproot my family and go to Ghana. You got money. I didn't say that. I did say that, but I mean. You didn't mean it. No, I didn't mean it. I'm going to Ghana for the holidays probably. I don't know, man.
Starting point is 01:13:32 Listen, there's a lot. You're lying to yourself right now if you're saying you don't feel a sense of confusion this morning. But what I will go back to saying is that Donald Trump is the president of the United States of America. And we just got to figure out collectively what are we going to do now as a community? Because we all here. We're all here. As a kid, I really do remember having these dreams and visions, but you just don't know what is going to come for you. Alicia Keys opens up about conquering doubt,
Starting point is 01:14:02 learning to trust herself, and leaning into her dreams. I think a lot of times we are built to doubt the possibilities for ourselves. For self-preservation and protection, it was literally that step by step. And so I discovered that that is how we get where we're going. This increment of small, determined moments. Alicia shares her wisdom on growth, gratitude, and the power of love. I forgive myself.
Starting point is 01:14:32 It's okay. Like grace. Have grace with yourself. You're trying your best and you're gonna figure out the rhythm of this thing. Alicia Keys, like you've never heard her before. Listen to On Purpose with Jay Shetty on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts,

Starting point is 01:19:31 like don't say that well open the microphones and open the phone lines okay let's talk to the people okay all right well 805 585-1051 donkey today, today's up next. Maybe it's the breakfast club. Good morning. The breakfast club. Your mornings will never be the same. This is a miracle. There is no question that there are problems in this country between police and community. Yes, you are a donkey. The latest on that police killing of a black man.
Starting point is 01:20:07 Now to new developments in the deadly spa shooting rampage. Yesterday was a really bad day for him, and this is what he did. And so we are in a state of emergency. White supremacist violence is and always has been the number one threat to our society. But I'm also very proud that my wife is white. It's a breakfast club, bitches. All right, Charlene, please tell me, why was I your donkey of the day? Donkey of the day for Wednesday, November 6th. I don't even really have a donkey of the day.
Starting point is 01:20:32 I just want to talk to us, my fellow Americans. Listen, America has spoken, and they spoke loud and clear. Donald Trump will be the 47th president of the United States of America. I have friends on the right. I have friends on the left. I have friends in the independ i have friends on the left i have friends in the independence and regardless of who we all decided to vote for yesterday guess what donald trump is now all of our president again i don't want to fight anyone i don't want
Starting point is 01:20:54 to argue with anyone because at the end of the day we are all americans and we all want what's best for this country uh i hope okay i know today democrats are going to be looking for someone to blame let me be the first to tell you it's not just one thing. I personally feel like Donald Trump speaks to people's grievances better than Democrats do. I know people are going to talk about misinformation and the dumbing down of society. I understand all of that, but you don't have to be intelligent to know you can't pay your bills. You don't have to be intelligent to know you can't afford groceries. People will forget what you did. They will forget what you said, but they will never forget how you made them feel and to millions of americans tens of millions of americans uh they
Starting point is 01:21:28 simply felt financially better when trump was in office i don't think it's fair to just chalk up you know trump winning to racism sexism homophobia anti-semitism yes he tapped into all of the worst things america has ever had to offer and there are a lot of people who agree with his rhetoric and voted for him because of those reasons but But I truly believe most people voted for him because they want more money in their pocket and they want to feel safe. Look, I know the economy does better under Democrat presidents, but Democrats haven't been able to make the American people believe that. I know the border is a bipartisan issue, but Democrats spend a lot of time acting like it wasn't an issue. Democrats created the sanctuary cities. Democrats told them to come on in.
Starting point is 01:22:03 Meanwhile, Republicans were putting migrants on buses and planes and sending them to those sanctuary cities and then then democrats had to change course but it might have been too little too late because at the end of the day once again when you see all that money going to migrants going to the border issue all you can think to yourself is they have billions for that but aren't making investments into the communities right here in america you see homeless people everywhere you don't have no money in your pocket you don't know how you're gonna pay your bills you're facing eviction listen i'm not saying trump is gonna fix all of that all i'm saying is donald trump has made people feel like he will fix all that in a way that democrats have it once again don't just chalk it up to racism sexism okay i believe those things play
Starting point is 01:22:43 a role but at the end of the day it's the economy stupid and democrats might just be really out of touch with what everyday americans are feeling now i didn't want to come on here today and be all doom and gloom i have absolutely zero reason to believe donald trump is going to be a president that brings people together but i'm going to be optimistic because i don't know any other way to be i hope this isn't the beginning of Donald Trump's revenge tour. I hope this is the golden age of America. As he said, I hope all the nut ass things Trump said he was going to do. He doesn't do because one thing Vice President Kamala Harris said repeatedly is Trump has an enemy's list.
Starting point is 01:23:19 I have a to do list. There is a lot of things that need to be done in America and I hope he gets to do it. And we the people need to look alive on the ground because you have a Republican Party that has a majority in the Senate. Judge Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas, they'll probably retire. That means Trump will get two more Supreme Court picks. So what I'm basically saying is there is nothing we can do right now, but try to come together some way, somehow. That's it. Huffington Post just posted an article with the headline, Trump just ran the most racist campaign in modern history and won.
Starting point is 01:23:53 What are we supposed to do about that? Okay, I'm looking at some of these numbers. I don't even know if these are true, but I'm looking at the numbers. I'm seeing high Hispanic, you know, voters nationwide voted for him. You know, I'm seeing a slight uptick in black men. They are 52% of white women. We can keep saying Trump is a threat to democracy, but nobody's treating him like one. Not the media, not the DOJ, and certainly not the voters because they spoke last night.
Starting point is 01:24:16 America got the president it voted for, and America got the president it deserved. But now I'm simply asking, how can we all coexist civilly that's what i'm thinking about today that's what i'm thinking about right now people are hitting me saying things like we about to live in a world that looks like our grandparents world or worse people are saying this is gonna be jim crow 2.0 i don't know but i know i don't think that's what any of us want right it might be too much to process right now it is early in the morning okay this is all just hitting us so if you want to get back to this later i'm fine with that but i just want us to start thinking about it because it's going to be a lot of work but i know god is
Starting point is 01:24:57 the best author and finisher and i don't know what god is trying to tell us right now i don't know what story god is writing but i'm listening please just hit the hee haw it's all I got for you right now that's it this is exactly how people don't read these stories be so crazy what story you read just now just America that's what's happening right now best author best fin best finisher, read. Are you slow? Like, what is happening? You a little distraught this morning, huh? I am.
Starting point is 01:25:31 I am. I have been all morning. I don't know. Y'all in here so hopeful. You just scared her. No, you scared her earlier, Charlamagne. You tell her they had the wig on tripling prices. She's been nervous ever since you said that. Donald Trump pushed this down.
Starting point is 01:25:40 Ever since you said that. I ain't nervous. You know what I did? Her wigs are going to quadruple. But that's going to be the least of your worries. I already started my chat about my silk presses. to quadruple. But that's going to be the least of your words. I already started my chat about my suppresses. I ain't worried. But that's going to be the least.
Starting point is 01:25:49 Hair under here is good, baby. Trust me when I tell you, that's going to be the least of your words. But that's why I'm scared. But I'm hoping it's not. Am I wrong for wanting to be optimistic? No, we should be optimistic. We got four years. Hopefully, we should.
Starting point is 01:26:00 No, we might have forever. Let's talk about that. Forever? Because he said we're not gonna vote again he said there's no more elections after this one you sitting here y'all hopeful optimistic he definitely said that that's my whole point he said all these things so i'm done i don't want to read this but god i know you're the best author finisher all that but i god i'm ready to read yeah you better not go against god i don't know what you're talking
Starting point is 01:26:21 about over there god i have reservations i'm not gonna read what you told me to read but i don't know what you're saying personally before i just don't get it i don't understand i don't know what you're talking about over there. I'm not going to read what you told me to read, but I don't know what you're saying. We need to talk personally before. I just don't get it. I don't understand. I don't understand either, but you know sometimes you shouldn't lean on your own understanding. I know. That's right.

Starting point is 01:27:42 Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Lauren LaRosa filling in for Jess. If you're just joining us, we're broadcasting live for the DMV. Last night, we were broadcasting
Starting point is 01:27:55 from Howard University's campus, and we're just taking your calls. You're waking up this morning. I don't know if you heard, I'm sure you've heard already, that Donald Trump will be your next president. Yes, he will. So let's open up the phone lines.
Starting point is 01:28:06 I just want to talk to the people this morning. Hello, who's this? What's up, y'all? It's your boy Front Page O. What's up, brother? Front Page O. Peace, y'all. Hey, man, y'all sound real depressed this morning, man.
Starting point is 01:28:15 I just want to get this out there. My thing and my opinion on why you guys fell so hard is because everyone else can speak so well on her behalf, but she herself couldn't answer any questions legitimately. And y'all say policies and things of that nature, but we watched them send money over to Ukraine and all of that. None of the money coming to the people, like you said, Charlamagne. And these were the messages, and you kept telling her, like, people are broke, people are hurting.
Starting point is 01:28:42 You see these things, and y'all got, you know, like Tupac said, money for wars but can't feed the poor i said that to her verbatim verbatim and it's like she's what and she and she cannot answer questions that's my thing why is michelle talking for her kamala should say all of this stuff if this is how you guys feel i do i do want to say my brother i'm gonna give kamala a lot of. I think Kamala ran a great campaign for a hundred day campaign. I think that, you know, the Democratic Party as a whole historically has been letting people down. And sadly, she is the face of that right now. And she's getting a lot of the brunt of just a backlash to the Democratic Party that people have been feeling for years. So I don't want to put it all on her at all.
Starting point is 01:29:24 No, not put it all on her, but let's keep it real. I mean, just to answer questions, I mean, come on, you're the president. You have to be like Obama with the masterful speakers, right? That's Black Jesus, though. That's Michael Jordan. He's a one-on-one talent, man. I don't like when people compare people to Barack Obama. That's like comparing people to Jordan. He's just a one-on-one but not a comparison but i'm just saying to
Starting point is 01:29:48 and did you guys say policy right so she's sending it like i like the agenda if you're gonna rob these corporations will you put the money into the american people i don't think the democrats would have did that no democrats, Democrats always do that. I mean, honestly, since World War II, the economy has always done better under Democratic presidents, and that's because that's what they're willing to do. They're willing to tap these big corporations just enough to where we get relief
Starting point is 01:30:15 in the middle class and the poor. Just enough. Thank you, brother. Hello, who's this? Good morning, this is DJ. What's up, DJ? Talk to us this morning. Yeah, first of all, good morning to you, Envy, Charlamagne. Morning. Morning, morning, morning.
Starting point is 01:30:30 Good morning. I agree with Charlamagne. You know, I think people are just fed up and tired with the economy. I went out and I voted for Kamala yesterday, praying and hoping she wins. I have four daughters, 17, 16, 14, and 9. And I just worry about their future, you know. But everything that's going on, if it was just me by myself and I have any kids, whatever, cool, I could thug it out.
Starting point is 01:30:52 But I worry for my children's future. And like Charlamagne said, I think the country spoke yesterday, and this is what they want. And everybody thinks, you know, things are going to be better. So we'll see. Hopefully not. Hey, you're right, man. Yeah, I want to be wrong.
Starting point is 01:31:11 I want to be wrong. Yeah, I want to be wrong, too. Let's unite. I hope they unify. We got to come together now. But I will say this. I got four beautiful daughters at the house, man. Boy, America threw a middle finger to women yesterday.
Starting point is 01:31:23 Yes. Not even just on the fact that you know there was a woman you know running vice president kamala harris but just the fact that women right now have less rights in 2024 than they did when i was born in 1978 like abortion was on so many ballots across the country yesterday women's reproductive rights and i mean when i say america just threw a middle I mean, it was an emphatic no. Right. Like, no. Like, the way I feel about Lauren's wigs is how they felt about women. How you feel about it?
Starting point is 01:31:50 How you feel about it? No. Damn. No. Damn. Okay. All right. I give you that.
Starting point is 01:31:56 What? I just, I don't think you understand the plight of, you can talk about the wigs all you want in real life this morning. I was literally just sitting here thinking, like, yo, yo we are i can't say the word on air but it's a rap think about it right i'm not i'm not hopeful y'all maybe it's different because y'all are men i don't well i don't think there's nothing i don't think there's any other way to go is but to be helpful like we have four more years of this so i can book a silk press appointment and the natural hair girls i'm not worried about the wigs. Price of clothes will go up. I'll figure it out.
Starting point is 01:32:26 But when it comes to the fact that I'm about to be fighting for people to believe that I should be able to make decisions myself, that I'm a person. I don't know if these numbers are true, but I'm looking at white women. 69% of white women voted for Trump. That's crazy. That can't be true. Why not? I mean, it probably is. It is true.
Starting point is 01:32:43 In 2020, I think it was 55%. But why would you vote against your interest in that way because it's just it's just mind-blowing well let's let's take some more calls we got a lot of people on the line we'll take some more calls when we come back 800-585-1051 call us up right now it's the breakfast club good morning Good morning. Call, call, call, call. Tell her. Tell her. Made it. Just for some chemistry. If y'all talking about it, you know we talking about it. It's topic time. Call 800-585-1051 to join in to the discussion with The Breakfast Club. Morning, everybody.
Starting point is 01:33:18 It's DJ Envy, Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are The Breakfast Club. Laura LaRosa filling in for Jess. Now, if you're just joining us, we're opening up the phone lines. Just want to hear from you guys this morning. I mean, a lot went on yesterday, and let's just take some calls. Hello, who's this? Long way from Orlando.
Starting point is 01:33:36 Long way from Orlando. Good morning, brother. Good morning, good morning. How are you feeling this morning? This morning I woke up. You can't blame the white people. You can't blame the white people. You can't blame the Republicans. You just got to blame the black, the Latinos and the LGBT.
Starting point is 01:33:51 And it's like like Charlamagne says, it's all about the dollar in the pocket. But at the same time, if you go to the gas station and you see four dollars on the tank, but you're able to go in and go pay that four dollars and leave goods but right now even if gas is at a dollar a dollar fifty you go inside they could tell you i don't feel like serving get out of my store you call the police the police could tell you okay you're trespassing you got to leave and push your car down the street and you're still looking at that dollar fifty gas like people forget the entitlement that comes with what's going on right now. No, you're absolutely right, man.
Starting point is 01:34:28 And, you know, working class people matter. What they are going through matters. And when they feel like, you know, they can't pay their bills, even though they out here busting their ass, or they feel like, you know, they can't put gas in their car, even though they out here busting their ass, there's going to be a backlash to that. And that's really that simple. And that's the heart and the soul of the country. And like you said, like though they're out here busting their ass, there's going to be a backlash to that. Right. It's really that simple. And that's the heart and the soul of the country. And like you said, like we said earlier, I mean, Donald Trump,
Starting point is 01:34:49 he displayed that when he was talking. He said, you know, I want to put more money in people's hands. I want to make sure that the money that we're giving immigrants and the money that we're sending to war goes back in people's hands. And a lot of people felt that. Hello, who's this? This is Coco. Hey, Coco, good morning.
Starting point is 01:35:04 Where are you calling from? I'm calling from Georgia. How are you feeling this morning, Coco? I'm really not surprised. But, you know, I just want to remind people that we can't go back and change things. And as far as, like, Trump speaking to the economy, I mean, I feel like Kamala did that, too. And it just didn't work. But I also feel like if Kamala would answer more questions instead of hindering on that rhetoric of, oh, I have to say it three million times for people to understand. No, we heard you the first 50 times that you said it, but we're asking you specific questions, and we want this answer.
Starting point is 01:35:40 And then also, you know, Trump, God, it's just so hard with him because we know like he's a butthole we know that but either way the country was gonna be it was gonna be a mess because with kamala you know we're at war oh i support israel blah blah blah then trump is like no we're fighting for other nations nations don't fight for us And all this stuff like that And the immigrants And since I'm here I just want to let people know America's still going to support America's still going to support Israel man I don't
Starting point is 01:36:10 And Trump If you think Trump Is not going to support Israel You crazy I He's going to have to support it Because of the people That actually
Starting point is 01:36:18 Control this country If you know You know Trump told Netanyahu To finish the job He said Biden has been holding him back those are his words there's gonna be a trump but he's also like well why are you sending all these monies and weapons and stuff like that but like i said you have to know who actually
Starting point is 01:36:38 controls the country to know you know what's going on what trump can do and what he actually can't do like you know and there's two for the people that know about the immigrant that was in louisiana that had the drug resistant tuberculosis and they had to file a restraining order against ice to not let the people go that had been um that had been exposed to this and you know i'm like okay here we go all over again and they're like oh well there's no reason to be alarmed but tb i'm a nurse tb can lay dormant in your body and come up later so how long is it going to take for them to get the statistics on this for them to raise the red flag so you know it's a lot going on y'all better buy some crypto xyz because it's
Starting point is 01:37:22 more than just you know israel and the Middle East and Russia and Ukraine. It's a lot of people at war and it's a lot of a lot of countries gaining up against the United States. And I understand that we have our own struggles here, you know, like buying groceries, buying gas, you know, things like that. But it's a lot of other stuff that's about to go on that people really need to have their eyes open and and looking at what's going on around them all right well thank you all right we got a moral to this story bro yeah i just looked this up for you raising a red flag waist trainers they the uh latex in the spandex and the nylon comes from overseas too so you better get ready that's going to get fat no you you know you be waist training we saw you in that costume y'all want me to be

Starting point is 01:39:23 Y'all did it with Kamala. Don't do it with me. Leave her alone. Leave me alone. And Farrah, my lady. Mello, leavellow leave alone she's online right now ordering wigs timu and sheen right now to make sure she get it before i was trying to get charlamagne some weight trainers before they go up i was thinking about my good sis thank you mellow all right when we come back we got just with the mess what we talking about uh yes we do we are actually going to talk about dr phil because dr phil was uh explaining yesterday, too, when it came to Kamala and this whole voting situation.
Starting point is 01:39:48 He flip flopped and we'll talk about it when we come back as a breakfast club. Good morning. Morning, everybody. It's DJ Envy. Just hilarious. Charlamagne Tha Guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get to just with the mess with La Rosa. News is real. Jessica Robin Moore. Just don't do no lie. She don't spare nobody. Worldwide Jess. Worldwide Matt. On The Breakfast Club.
Starting point is 01:40:12 She's a coachess. With Lauren La Rosa. I'm back. And I got the man. Talk to me. So Dr. Phil, remember he got on stage at the Trump rally and it came out of nowhere. A lot of us were surprised. So he sat down with Piers Morgan and he was talking about his decision to do that.
Starting point is 01:40:31 Let's take a listen. When I spoke at the Trump rally, everybody would go, oh, there he is. He's gone political. But that was an act of rebellion on my part because I requested 25 plus times to speak to Kamala Harris. Never got so much as a yes, no, maybe. I offered to give the identical speech at a Harris rally, said I will cross out Trump's name, write in Harris's name, and give the identical speech at a Harris rally. The morning after, we got contacted by somebody in the Harris camp in writing that said, is he serious? He'll give that speech at a Harris rally because if he will,
Starting point is 01:41:12 we're interested in him coming to the D.C. rally. She wrote back. I said, write back and say, absolutely. Tell me when and where to be. I will bring a transcript of the speech and give it at a Harris rally. crickets never heard another word once they found out i was serious now here's my whole thing i just feel like dr phil as big and i know we were saying celebrities don't matter whatever whatever but as big as a name as dr phil is i feel like he should have been a lot more responsible with that decision just because somebody didn't want to sit down and interview with you or you didn't hear back or whatever the case that may have been it doesn't seem like his decision was really based off of
Starting point is 01:41:47 politics no that was some sucker ish that was ego yeah all legal i'm i'm i'm actually shocked as i can feel about that i'm not i'm not shocked that he did it i'm shocked that he would admit that yes no i was like yo the the the yes like the ability of white men because how would you get on a platform and say they would kill anybody else like what do you mean you just reached out to her 25 times and she never replied her team didn't reply so he decided to go on um go go to go to trump's rally at madison square garden to speak like that's just yeah that's whack but then but but even even still you so you you you ran you ranted against dei yes even though it was a black woman that put you in the position that you're currently in.
Starting point is 01:42:27 You ranted against DEI just because you was mad because a woman of color turned down an interview with you. You know what that sounds like to me? God dang, Dr. Phil. That privilege is all up in there. Dr. Phil is usually a common sense person. That ain't no common sense logic. Yeah, that was whack. It made me feel like I don't even know people because I thought I had a good sense good sense of dr phil all these years but baby i missed the mark yeah that was whack ego

Starting point is 01:43:13 But we do have a president of the United States of America, and that person is supposed to be a president for all of us. Brother called up here earlier, and he was talking about the platinum plan that Donald Trump presented.
Starting point is 01:43:23 I don't think that platinum plan going to ever see the light of day, but I think that what the brother said is what we all should be doing. We should be pushing our elected officials to do what it is we want them to do. That's right. I'm telling y'all right now, though, that person y'all got in the White House is going to be a hard enemy to fight. That is the final boss of all final bosses.
