Instacart, groceries that over-deliver. A Midas Touch exclusive, our editorial team has exposed
that one of the so-called undecided voters on the CNN panel that weighed in after Vice President Kamala Harris' historic DNC speech, well,
let's just say he was not so undecided and has a history of posting pro-Trump stuff over and over
again, including posting Donald Trump's mugshot, including making posts to Elon Musk saying that
Donald Trump should be reinstated on Twitter, including making posts to Elon Musk saying that Donald Trump should be reinstated on Twitter,
including making posts that were critical of former Vice President Pence certifying the results of the 2020 election,
doesn't quite seem like an undecided voter.
So I want to show you our expose that's just going absolutely viral right now. And then I want to show you how we uncovered
who this so-called undecided voter really is.
Let's take a look at Midas Touch, our website.
Let's take a look right here.
Bring Back Trump, CNN's undecided voter panelist,
has pro-Trump social media history.
Meet Brian Rosado, who was disappointed that Mike Pence didn't
overturn the election for Donald Trump and CNN tried to act like this was an undecided voter.
Just think about it like this. Remember, CNN had eight individuals on that panel and they all gave
Vice President Kamala Harris somewhere between an A or a B in terms of the marks they gave,
except this guy who gave her a C.
And then all the other undecided voters raised their hands and said that they were going
to now be voting for Vice President Kamala Harris.
Other than this guy who said that based on Vice President Kamala Harris's speech, he's
now going to be voting for Donald Trump because he thinks that she isn't ready.
That was then immediately used by right-wing social media accounts, by Trump accounts,
and then pushed out. So you have to wonder, did CNN either not vet this guy or was CNN complicit?
Let's go through this story a little bit more. So a man introduced as an undecided voter during a CNN segment following Kamala Harris's
speech on day four of the Democratic National Convention has a history of supporting MAGA
online. CNN host Gary Tuchman said all of the panelists claimed to be undecided voters at that
time. But now meet Bryant Rosado, who when asked to grade Kamala Harris's speech, gave it a C,
while the other seven panelists rated it either an A or a B when asked to grade Kamala Harris's speech, gave it a C, while the other seven panelists
rated it either an A or a B when asked to explain his grade.
Rosado said that she wasn't clear enough on her policies.
I feel like more so she should wait.
I don't want to personally vote for someone that is a backup.
I'm going to show you his clip, and then I'm going to surgically show you the receipts
about who Bryant Rosado really is. Let's play this clip. First thing I want to ask you, I want you to
grade the speech, okay? A is excellent, B above average, C average, D below average. We all know
what F is. Let's start with you. How do you grade the speech? I gave her a B plus. B. B plus. A. B plus.
A. A.
C. C.
Okay, Rosado then confirmed he wasn't ready to vote for Vice President Kamala Harris.
Moments later, he raised his hand indicating that he was ready to make a commitment.
When asked, he stated that he was now going to be voting for Donald Trump.
All right, so we then found out about this guy's social media history. He started to post from the CNN studio, so we confirmed that it was him and his account was the real estate guy.
You see his post right here on his story saying he was at the CNN studio. Then the Trump campaign
quickly seized upon Rosado's comments, using them as an attack
on Kamala Harris.
Several pro-Trump accounts then amplified his comments across social media, including
the Trump war room, which is associated with the Trump campaign.
So Midas Touch then uncovered that despite telling CNN that he was an undecided voter
who just decided to vote for Trump, Rosado has a substantial MAGA social
history, including a video of himself shooting an AK-47, which he purchased.
An owner of such a weapon is unlikely to be undecided, as Kamala Harris has expressed
support for banning assault weapons.
Rosado's social media history, then reviewed by Midas Touch, revealed that he has been
posting pro-Trump content for years.
Midas Touch did not locate any post indicating support for Kamala Harris or Democrats,
but we did find numerous pro-Trump and MAGA Republican posts.
Here's what we found.
Trump's mugshot.
On Twitter, Rosado retweeted Trump's mugshot multiple times.
The retweet of Donald Trump's post of the mugshot contained a link to Trump's website,
which redirected to a
fundraising page. Doesn't sound so undecided to me. Rosado also reposted Elon Musk's quote tweet
of the mugshot post where Elon Musk said, next level. He then retweeted Don Jr.'s mugshot post
as well, which read, hey, deep state, he's coming for you. See you on January 20th,
2025. So the CNN undecided voter doesn't seem to be so undecided saying, hey, deep state,
he's coming for you. See you on January 20th, 2025. There's other pro-Trump posts.
Bryant Rosado has other pro-Trump social media posts that we located. In 2022, Rosado
tagged Elon Musk in a tweet asking to, quote, bring back Trump and make Twitter great again.
He retweeted a picture of Trump at Mar-a-Lago with another call to reinstate Trump on Twitter.
In October 2022, Rosado again asked for Elon Musk to, quote, bring back Trump. In another tweet on the same
day, Rosado again pleaded with Elon Musk to, quote, bring Trump back. He also retweeted Trump's
account using the hashtag MAGA. Rosado then reposted Eric Trump's I love Goya tweet after
the CEO of the company associated himself with Trump back on July 11th of 2020.
You take a look at Rosado's Instagram follows.
Rosado follows Trump, Don Jr. and Candace Owens
from his real estate business account,
at TheRealEstateGuy.
When it comes to January 6th,
Rosado indicated disappointment
that Vice President Mike Pence refused to overturn
the Electoral College vote for Trump.
Rosado replied, shake my head, shake my head,
to a CNBC tweet on January 6th,
reporting that Mike Pence reject Trump's call
to overturn Biden's election.
You see it right there, shake my head.

Then he talks about the Great Reset.
In October 2021, Rosado claimed, quote, the Global Reset was starting due to mass internet
outages.
The Global Reset is a conspiracy theory pushed by
MAGA Republicans and QAnon supporters claiming a secret cabal is attempting to reshape the world
to their evil agenda. You see his post right there. Then when it comes to AOC, Rosado interacted
with pro-Trump account, Benny Johnson, criticizing AOC for comments about her Twitter account.
Rosado wrote, quote, super full of herself. Tell her to pay $8. And you see it right there.
Rosado then reposted an account claiming Elon Musk owned AOC. Rosado himself replied to AOC's
critique that Twitter wasn't working well for a product that charges $8. Rosado replied,
pay the $8 clown emoji, which was a common refrain from right-wing accounts at the time.
With respect to President Joe Biden, Rosado has attacked and amplified attacks on Joe Biden.
In January 2023, Rosado replied to Biden, quote, you are confused, bro. He also amplified an attack from Benny
Johnson on Joe Biden that said, what if people talk like Joe Biden? Awkward. In April 2020,
Rosado replied Trump 2020 to a Joe Biden tweet stating, quote, our planet cannot afford four
more years of Donald Trump. And then he did hashtag Trump 2020. He also reposted a video
of Tucker Carlson discussing the MAGA Republicans use of FJB and let's go Brandon phrases used by
Trump supporters to attack Biden. With respect to Candace Owens, Rosado has expressed support for
her. In March, after the Daily Wire parted ways with her, he posted on Facebook,
thank God for Candace Owens. Owen was dropped by the Daily Wire after making anti-Semitic comments.
In replies to his post, Rosado defended Owens, calling her his hero. Rosado claimed Candace
Owens, quote, represents everybody. Rosado said he likes Candace Owens' voice
and he agrees with her 100% of the time.
He even suggested Elon Musk should hire Candace Owens
after her split from the Daily Wire.
In terms of pro-Trump accounts,
Rosado has interacted with other pro-Trump accounts.
Yeah, we got the receipts, folk.
We get very detailed here at the Midas Touch Network.
Rosado is an apparent
fan of Andrew Tate, but didn't like Aiden Ross sniffing the seat of Andrew Tate. Trump recently
interviewed chair sniffer Aiden Ross at his Mar-a-Lago home. You see him reposting Andrew
Tate over and over again, and Andrew Tate was recently arrested on sex trafficking charge.
Rosado retweeted a post indicating support for Elon Musk.
MAGA Republicans have always consistently praised Elon Musk.
He has also reposted Elon Musk criticizing advertisers who left Twitter due to concerns
over content moderation.
Rosado indicated he was unmoved by Kamala Harris's speech and was now voting for Trump
on CNN and claimed to be an
undecided voter. I'll let you make the decision if you think that's an undecided voter right there.
But what seems most likely to be the case is that he was always a Trump supporter,
as his pro-Trump social media history indicates. And the fact that he was disappointed in Mike
Pence for not overturning the 2020 election
doesn't really sound like an undecided voter to me.
Now, you want to see our methodology of how we found this out.
Well, he was on CNN.
So the way we were able to uncover who he was is that we found his face on CNN.
We then were able to look through a face search to see where he was as well.
And we found his LinkedIn page. We then found his social media page. And then we were able to kind
of pinpoint all of the posts that he had made over the years. And it was right there. It was,
you know, look, it took us some research. It took us some amount of diligence.
But I want to frame this in the appropriate context here with CNN.
Now, CNN had an obligation and duty to its viewers.
This was one of the most pivotal moments in American history.
The DNC had concluded.
Vice President Kamala Harris gave her historic speech that you
saw that she gave, and CNN then cut to this panel of eight undecided voters. And there were people
watching this who depend on CNN, even though I think there's a lot of cord cutting for obvious
reasons. So at this most pivotal moment in American history, CNN represented that this
Bryant Rosado was completely undecided. And you think about how calculated it was as well, right?
Bryant Rosado said, well, you know, I'm going to give it a C. And they tried to make it look
as though it were some active deliberations. They didn't want to, he wasn't going to say it was an F,
right? Because that would have been kind of obvious. So they tried to play people in that way.
And, you know, you could judge for yourself. You could form your own opinions. I'll form mine and
share them with you. But let me know what you think right there, because, you know, I think that
that's what CNN should have done. And like, you know, when you hear me Because, you know, I think that that's what CNN should have done.
And like, you know, when you hear me saying, you know, CNN and the corporate media are
doing this and that, sometimes I'm like, I'm not trying to sound conspiratorial here
because when you say it, sometimes it sounds a little bit like, all right, Ben, what are
you talking about?
But when you see that they're putting this person on a panel, pushing him out to we the
people as undecided, and there's this history, you have to wonder either one, there's zero
vetting going on.

They have billionaires and deca-millionaires.

not growmitus.com,
which by the way, I'm grateful for when you go there.
That's what they have.
So they either do zero vetting with all of their resources,
zero vetting, and they're that lazy,
or they're doing this intentionally and maliciously.
