Tim Waltz is now being accused of stolen valor because on numerous occasions,
he either tries to make it seem like he served in Afghanistan or Iraq,
or he outright says he was in war. Even CNN is calling him out. The dude served in Italy.
And I can certainly respect 24 years of military service, but you can't go around saying that you
were in war carrying weapons or that, you know, using language, try to make it seem like you were
actually in the Middle East when you were not. Now, I love this because CNN is saying that J.D. Vance is attacking him without evidence.
Yo, we got so much evidence to lay down for you.
The only explanation is that the people at CNN are intentionally lying to you.
Unless, of course, they're just really dumb people.
But we'll talk about that.
Cori Bush is also out.
Joe Biden says that he does not believe there will be a peaceful transfer of power if Trump
loses.
Yikes.
And Frank Luntz says if the election were held today, Kamala Harris will win.
How fun is that?

Hey, everybody.
What's going on? My name is Alot Eliyahu.
I'm a field reporter here at TimCast News.
Joey, thanks for joining us.
Hannah Clare, I like the color of your shirt.
I love the color of your shirt.
It's fantastic.
It's adorable when we work for the same place and we match.
I'm Hannah Clare Brimlow.
I'm a writer with Alot at scnr.com.
I'm so happy you guys can join us tonight.
Let's get started.
Here we go from cnn.com.
Vance reopens line of attack into Waltz's military record as two veterans now vie to be vice president.
Heck of a headline there.
I love this happening now.
Kamala Harris speaks at rally in Michigan.
Let me just X that out because we don't care.
They say Donald Trump's running mate, Ohio Senator J.D. Vance, stepped up his attacks on Minnesota Governor Tim Waltz's portrayal of his military career,
accusing him without evidence of ducking service in Iraq when he left the Army
National Guard and ran for Congress in 2005. Vance also accused Waltz of falsely claiming he had
served in combat in a combat zone while the Democratic vice presidential nominee was in the
Army National Guard. While Waltz retired two months before his unit received alert orders to deploy to
Iraq, the attacks on Waltz's military record are part of the race, are part of the race from both parties to define the relatively unknown governor. Okay, so I'll just pause there.
If you get your news from CNN, I feel sorry for you. And that's why we highlight this first.
I have got so much evidence it is going to make your head spin. How about this first one from
Jack Posobiec? This is an article from 2005, a press release. Waltz still planning to run for
Congress despite possible call to duty in Iraq for immediate release March 20th, 2005.
They knew in advance.
They say on Thursday, March 17th, the National Guard Public Affairs Office announced a possible partial mobilization of roughly 2,000 troops in the Minnesota National Guard.
First District Congressional Candidate Tim Waltz currently holds the rank of Command Sergeant Major in the 1-125th Battalion,
which is based in New Ulm and
largely composed of men and women from southern Minnesota. When asked about his possible deployment
to Iraq, Walt said, I do not yet know if my artillery unit will be part of this mobilization
and I am unable to comment further on specifics of the deployment. Others have come out calling him
a traitor who abandoned his men, bypassing the chain of command so that he can get
relieved and then go run for office. I don't know if that's true, but I can tell you, evidence
certainly suggests he did know he would be deploying and decided he would leave instead.
Now, a lot of people have come out and said, no, no, he was planning his retirement months in
advance. That's true. However, many commenters and many other veterans have stated that when deployment orders were in the
pipelines, many of them stalled their plans to intentionally serve their country, knowing
they would need to be deployed. Tim Walz is being criticized for not doing that, for deciding to
leave. And now and there's look, even if someone else came in, I don't think it's fair to call him
a traitor because he didn't want to deploy.
I think it's more just like, I don't know, to do something like this.
And then later, from the Washington Free Beacon, Tim Walz falsely claimed he served in Afghanistan when a local vet called him out.
His office did nothing.
Come on.
I'll just play this video because CNN is garbage.
We're going to play this video for you. You can listen. You can hear you can hear what he said for yourselves.
Hope woke up like many of you did five weeks ago and said, Dad, you're the only person I know who's
in elected office. You need to stop what's happening with this. I'll take my kick in the
butt for the NRA. I spent 25 years in the army and I hunt and I gave the money back. And I'll
tell you what I have been doing. I've been voting for common sense legislation that protects the second amendment but we can do background checks
we can do cdc research we can make sure we don't have reciprocal carry among states and we can make
sure that those weapons of war that i carried in war is the only place where those weapons are at
you heard it he said he carried weapons of war in war. Homie, according to Wikipedia, we're going to use Wikipedia because the source is actually task and purpose.
They say he deployed to Italy and in support of Operation Enduring Freedom.
He did not deploy to Iraq, Afghanistan or a combat zone during his service.
So what do you guys think? Is that stolen valor?
At least it's not legally stolen valor, but many people are calling it stolen valor.
It's definitely implied valor at the very least, right?
It's pathetic.
It's pathetic is what it is.
He's trying to run for office under false pretense.
He's trying to say he's a veteran.
He fought in a war.
He did all these great things.
What did he do in Italy?
With sip cappuccinos, with bombs going overhead?
It wasn't World War II.
No, you didn't see combat, so don't act like you saw combat.
It's very simple.
It's a disgrace.
It's just, they're all liars.
The whole ticket over there
is just a bunch of frauds and phonies.
It's disgusting,
and he just needs to resign, frankly.
Do you think that Americans
will make the decision?
Will Americans make the decision?
They'll hear,
oh, well, he was in the National Guard.
He was in the Army.
If the media lets them hear the facts, CNN without evidence.
There's all the evidence.
Tim just read the evidence.
Let them hear two minutes of that.
People are just going to understand this very quick.
Kamala's a liar about her past.
He's a liar about his past.
It's a ticket of liars.
Here's more evidence from CNN themselves.
How about that?
Waltz did make a comment speaking to a group,
he's done it a couple of times, where he has used language that has suggested that he carried
weapons in a fighting situation. As you know, with your contact with the military, I know from
coming from a military family, there is a difference between being in a combat area,
being involved at a time of war, and actually being in a position where people are shooting at you.
There is no evidence that at any time Governor Walz was in a position of being shot at, and some of his language could easily be seen to suggest that he was.
So that is absolutely false when he said that about gun rights out there. So this is, we refer to this as assumptive language. And I'll give you a simple,
well, you can look at what he says and understand the basics of it.
I served in Operation Enduring Freedom. And the assumption people then make from that is that
you're in the Middle East. No, he's in Italy. So if I said something like, guys, for dinner,
I really want to get these amazing steaks, these beautiful thousand
dollar steaks for each and every one of us.
And if you show up to work early tomorrow, I'm going to get I'm going to do everything
I can to get you these thousand dollar steaks.
And then when everyone shows up, I go, everybody, I did it.
I got dinner.
And everyone's cheering.
Yeah.
The assumption is I got the dinner I promised.
But then when the end of the shift comes around, there's pizza.
And it cost me 20 bucks.
Tricking people by using language that would lead a reasonable person who trusts you into believing something that is not true.
That is what Tim Waltz is doing because he's a scumbag.
Yeah.
Yeah, he is.
Everything about him is disgusting.
Every policy he's espoused isag. Yeah. Yeah. He is. Everything about him is disgusting. Every policy he's espoused is horrible.
Everything about him.
Which of the gun control ones, right?
The gun control ones, we can get into that.
We can also talk.
There's very few, to be completely honest.
Well, he's just a pathetic guy with a whole pedophile build.
I mean, everything about this guy is horrible.
You've got to blame the state legislature in Minnesota for that one, too.
Well, he could have vetoed it.
Exactly.
He could have signed it.
The thing is, he wouldn't have. What I found really fascinating about Walt's story for that one, too. Well, he could have vetoed it. Exactly. He could have signed it. The thing is, he wouldn't have.
What I found really fascinating about Walt's story is that he when he ran for Congress, he was in a more conservative area and he basically postured like a moderate Democrat.
Right. And I hear sometimes right now, oh, he's he's the populist progressive that Kamala has added to the ticket.
No, because as governor, especially when the state became completely Democrat controlled, every branch of government was led by Democrats.
He was like, great, I'm totally here for any progressive thing you guys want to get behind.
And I think that's what is the problem.
Like, does he have these values or was he always a progressive hiding in plain sight, faking it to moderates?
Or is he just going to do whatever his party around him tells him to do?
I mean, it's not a good position for us to have. As you go up the political chain, you come under more scrutiny from the media and others
as you should. And it seems like he got caught with his hand in the cookie jar here, clearly
embellishing a little bit, not the craziest embellishment, but obviously trying to make
him seem like he has more credibility with vets and stuff like that. I'm surprised the Kamala
Harris campaign didn't catch it sooner because I'm sure they vetted him very thoroughly and this was probably one of the focuses of the kamala harris campaign
too like how can i reach out to like the suburban white veteran type voter and it's oh look at this
jolly old former football coach and he was a veteran and like that plays well to help um
rough out the edges of kamala harris so to speak and now it's kind of backfiring in their face under more scrutiny.
It gets worse. It gets worse.
We have this from Green Beret Naptime on X.
He's 18, Series Army, taking naps and hunting down terrorists,
politically homeless, conservative, tired of the BS.
And he posted this. Hey, Tim Waltz, is this you?
Do you often wear our crest, even though you were only National Guard with zero deployments,
never went through SFAS or the Q course?
And by all accounts, never even worked with Special Forces?
Stolen valor much?
Now, I got to correct you there, Greenberry, buddy.
He had a deployment to Italy.
Ah, man, getting deployed to Italy.
That sounds like a nice one.
No, look, I will say this, too.
I'm not going to give him zero respect.
I will criticize him for exaggerating and claiming he did things he didn't do.
But I respect anybody who's going to serve. They'll get at least a couple degrees of respect from me.
However, you know, like J.D. Vance, he actually did serve in the Middle East.
Well, that's tremendously more respectful. I do not respect the administration, the governments that lied to get us into those wars. But the men and women, J.D. Vance or Tulsi Gabbard, who ran full speed to serve this country
when they thought this country needed it most, I respect. Now, take a look at these pictures.
You have this picture of Tim Waltz. He's wearing a green beret insignia, baseball caps in numerous
photos. And, you know, people are saying like, it's just a baseball cap.
Hold on there a minute. When the dude says, I was in the army and I served in Operation Enduring
Freedom, and then he puts on a green beret cap. Yo, come on, you know what he's trying to trick
people into thinking that he's special forces who actually was in combat. and then he lies and says, I carried weapons of war in war. Now that deserves zero respect.
It is an indignity.
It deserves scorn.
Yeah, it cancels out what he did in the military, if you ask me.
It really cancels most of what he did out because it's disgusting to try to falsify everything,
to get people who want to vote for you because of your service to vote for you under something you never did.
It's a disgraceful lie.
It really is.
And it just shows to his character.
It shows the kind of person he is.
And it's just the kind of person that she is.
They will say anything they need to any audience to get them to believe it
so they can walk into that White House and ruin this country.
Say whatever you need to say.
He's the Midwestern dad.
No, he's not.
No, he's not.
Can I just say this?
The Democrats have a contingent that hate Jews so much
that they chose waltz over Shapiro.
And did you see Shapiro's speech at that PA rally?
It was a good speech.
He did a good job.
It was a good speech.
And I saw a lot of conservatives were like,
well, I'm glad they
didn't pick this guy. But you know, what's funny is conservatives understood what Shapiro did well
in speaking at that rally. But Democrats understand as well that progressives will
not vote for a Jewish man who has pro-Israel views. Can you elaborate more on that? Because
I think that's people have been, Democrats have been calling that a Republican line of attack.
I actually caught up with Senator John Fetterman at the Philadelphia rally yesterday
and asked him this question about him being,
do you think if his pro-Israel bona fides is what helped drag him away from that?
And he said no.
So a lot of Dems are trying to cover for this.
Of course.
And it also makes the Democrats look bad to say that, though.
Progressives wrote a letter saying do not pick this man because
arabs muslims and young people will not support him we don't like his views on israel on cnn
you had numerous commentators including uh recently this was a george w bush uh was he an
advisor or something i don't know he worked worked in administration, I think. And he, there, this is not just a right-wing point.
This has been
widely, look,
let me put it this way.
If what they're claiming about Shapiro
was true, that, no, no, nothing to do with that.
Cori Bush and Jamal
Bowman would still be in office.
Or they would have won their primaries.
But, uh, Democrats
do not like people.
You get my point.
You get my point.
And I think Shapiro has something like a 60% approval rating.
It's very popular in Pennsylvania.
And I know the Republicans are eyeing Pennsylvania very aggressively,
but I'm trying to think of the past few elections when Mastriano lost to Fetterman
and Bob Casey was there as their senior senator there.
So, I mean.
It's tough.
Pennsylvania, we think about it every like four years for Republicans.
It's usually a dream.
Trump got it in 16 by a very slim margin.
We, you know, if we get it, we get it.
We don't necessarily need it for the map.
There is a map without it.
There is no map for the Democrats without it though.
Their math does not work.
I want to rephrase what I just said to clarify,
because I don't know if it was clear enough.
Cori Bush and Jabal Mohman were their campaigns
were outspent
by support from, I think it was AIPAC directly.
Was it AIPAC directly? Or the United
Democracy Project, because this is
within the Democratic primary. Right.
I think it was United Democracy Project.
Progressive leftists
face windfalls of cash against them for being anti-Israel.
These are people who won in the first place on these positions.
AOC was resilient to this.
It is very obvious when Cori Bush goes on stage after losing, screaming, what did she say?
Something like, I will end your kingdom?
Yeah, I will tear your kingdom down.
Is that what she said?
Yes.
That there is a lot.
She got, what, 50,000 votes?
I didn't know that.
So Democrats know for sure that if they choose someone like Shapiro, they are going to lose large swaths of votes.
And the interesting thing is, I wonder if it's not so much that they were facing real damage from the anti-Semitic portions of their party. And anti-Israel, I know they're not the same thing.
But in Minnesota, they may have lost Minnesota if they got Shapiro because –
Michigan. Michigan is the one they really were going to lose.
Dearborn is where all the Muslims were thrown in.
But you've got Somali Muslims.
Oh, I know.
Massive population.
And that's why they picked Tim Walz. He's basically a Somalian.
They could have lost Michigan and Wisconsin over someone who had...
Did you see the things that Shapiro had said?
Yeah, he was in the IDF.
Well, he didn't serve in a military role.
He served in a volunteer role, like doing dishes or something.
Sort of similar to Tim Walz, right?
Maybe even less.
I think they really were mad.
The anti-Israel people were very mad at Shapiro because he said he didn't believe in a two-state solution or wasn't ready or the Palestinians are too violent for a two-state solution.
He's not wrong on that, I don't think.
I also think there's an important distinction we need to make between the anti-Israel sentiment that we are seeing within the Democrat Party.
I think there is a portion of the – there is a way to criticize Israel without being anti-Semitic.
The question is, how many of the people who are criticizing Israel and are anti-Shapiro are doing that out of their bigotry?
Let's actually, let's pull this story up. We have this, this is from today.
CNN panel explodes as ex-Bush advisor claims Kamala Harris couldn't pick Josh Shapiro due to rampant anti-Semitism in the Democratic Party. I don't think it's fair to say the panel exploded.
This is Scott Jennings, a former special assistant to President George W. Bush.
He made his point and no one got bent out of shape over it. He made his point. Let me pull it up here.
I think it's around the five minute mark where he chimes in on this one. He bowed down to the radical left in her party
by not picking Shapiro, who is Jewish. There was a nasty campaign run against him. Everybody knows
it. No one wants to admit it, but everybody knows it. And she wound up choosing the person who was
not Jewish and not as talented and not from the state that she has to win. He did
a nice job tonight. Everybody can see why he was the best choice, but she couldn't do it
because the party is somewhat awash in anti-Semitism. And for Walsh, when he did what
he did during the riots, to me, it was him saying, I don't have the strength or the character to stand
up to this anarchy. So in two big
decision points for this ticket, they've showed us they will always bow down to the radical
left. So I think if you if you want to talk about normal to the normal people in this
country, bowing down to the radical left is not normal. It shouldn't be normal and it
should be a flashing red light. But this is the reality.
And I think he's right. I think the reality is when you look at Cori Bush, they had to dump so much money to compete against her. Now, the reality is people in her district don't like her. The
people in Ilhan Omar's district don't like her. The Somali Muslims don't like Ilhan Omar. And
this is an important point. A lot of conservatives think that she gets massive support from the
Somali community. They roast her all the time because she's a leftist. She's woke and she's pro LGBTQ. You can still see with AOC and the
squad, a large DSA leftist, anti-Israel, pro-Palestine contingent. And the question then
becomes outside of the woke, you do have Dearborn. You do have the Somali migrants in Minnesota.
Were they to have picked Shapiro, maybe they could have won
in Pennsylvania.
Maybe they could have won back some
of these more moderate
Jewish voters in the United States who are concerned and probably
going to be voting for Trump, but they probably
would have lost a lot in Michigan
and Minnesota, which I
believe it was Michigan where
they had that campaign to not vote for
Joe Biden?
Remember Kamala wasn't running during the primary.
She was still the VP.
And I think it's fair to say that there's a difference between criticism of
Israel and claiming that they wouldn't vote for a Jewish guy.
But I got to stress this because we had Taylor Hanson on the Culture War
podcast, Tenet Media, Friday, 10 a.m.
I think this was last week.
I have been on the ground and you have too, Elad. So I want to hear your experiences, but, 10 a.m. I think this was last week. I have been on the ground, and you have too, Elad.
So I want to hear your experiences, but I will tell you mine.
I have met many people in the 10 years that I was on the ground
who are holding up signs publicly saying,
we have no problem with Jewish people, it's just Israel.
When the cameras turn off, they're like, no, it's Jews.
So there's so many different groups and and types of people different types of people that
you'll see at protests um and some of them are on the same page and some aren't so at these
fair fair point i've got people who are strictly anti-israel i have friends who are very critical
of israel you're allowed i'm trying to be very nuanced here so you'll go to these events and
they'll be like young white liberals uh the people from the young crowd like
a young black person a young spanish person and i find like some of those people actually tend to be
not pro-hamas um but i'll find them next to more extreme protesters who wrap the kafir around their
head who are usually arab who will more or more likely to yell al-akbar for example a couple of
weeks ago when bb net and yahoo came and visited and gave a speech at Congress,
what were the chants that we were seeing when they took the flag down and started burning it?
It was the Al-Akbar.
Some of the people dispersed at that point.
There are only a few flags that have the Hezbollah's logo on it.
But then again, it's considering like, you know, I remember back in the day when at a Trump rally,
if they saw one person with a swastika somewhere outside, they'd say, oh, everybody at the rally is a Nazi.
But nobody seems to condemn this stuff actively while they're there.
So I'm just trying to have some nuance.
No, I completely agree.
So I'll clarify my point.
You go to these rallies, you go to these protests, and you'll find people who are like, no, no, no, I don't want any hatred towards Jewish people.
My friends are Jewish.
I'm concerned about Israel.
And that's their legitimate position. But a lot of, there's a lot of people who will on camera say it's Israel because they know what the PR looks like. And then
once the camera's off, they'll start talking about Jews starting the slave trade and using banks to
control the world and start world wars. We saw this with the Women's March. You had that story
from Tablet Magazine. Do you remember this one? No. There was a woman who was one of the top
organizers said that the other members of the Women's March sat her down
to explain to her how the Jews started the slave trade
and started all the world wars and all of these things.
Really?
It won't say it publicly.
And I'll pull that story up.
You'll find those people.
You'll find a small group of those people at all anti-Israel protests,
but I don't want to try to tar all of those people as those groups
because if you hate Jews, then you want to show up to the anti-Israel events.
Yeah, but who was screaming Allah Akbar?
Was it the Muslims or was it white kids?
It was people who had their, who were wrapped up in keffiyeh.
So they try to cover themselves.
And in that way, you can't really tell, because Warringah keffiyeh isn't a Muslim thing.
I think it's like a Palestinian Arab thing. It's where they wrap their head
up and are using it to conceal their identity.
And a lot of young white liberals,
non-Arabs,
non-Middle Easterners, have appropriated
it, and it's kind of just become a Palestinian
symbol, but a way to cover yourself
too. They do realize, like,
I don't know if any of them realize this.
Look at London right now. You see all the Muslims
attacking everybody,
raping all the women, stabbing all the kids.
Okay, just because you think you're one of them, you're not.
They will cut your head off too.
Well, I think it's clear to see who is pro-America and who is anti-American in these protests.
You can dive into all the details if you want, but go on.
I want to ask you a question.
Is Farrakhan an anti-Semite?
I believe so.
I think his rhetoric is not only anti-Semitic.
I'd say he's also anti-white.
I think when he called Jewish people termites or made reference to Jewish people he didn't like as termites,
I think that's fairly – it's fair to say he just literally doesn't like Jewish people.
So this is a tablet magazine from 2018.
It's not the only article, but they mention the Women's March leadership.
Okay, these are Democrats. They wear the pussy hats. They did the Women's March in 2018. Linda
Sarsour, Tamika Mallory, Carmen Perez all proudly declared their friendship and partnership with
Farrakhan on various occasions. And they've, this is just one of the stories where it's like,
yeah, so I'm just saying this. I'm just saying this. The idea that Democrats are claiming,
so because you mentioned earlier,
it was Fetterman who said it, right?
Fetterman said that, no, no, the reason we,
everyone's, you know, it's a Republican talking point
that Shapiro wasn't chosen because he's a Jew.

who are pro-Ferrican.
They would have lost too many votes,
and they can't do it.
Democrats, they won't do it.
It's about margins.
It's a slim election.
You cannot lose.
They could have lost 3-4% of the party.
Very easily.
That's right.
Easily. Conservatively, 3-4% of the party. Very easily. That's right. Easily. Conservatively, 3-4% of the party.
There's a lot of different strains. We don't need to focus on this too much,
but my last tidbit on this is there are many different strains of anti-Semitism,
and I think it's important to analyze them and take them for what they are separately.
This Louis Farrakhan and Tamika Mallory and Linda Sarsour adjacent anti-Semitism
is from a place of viewing Jews as rich, privileged
white landlords. So I just wanted to kind of have you seen the memes posted by people of this repute?
Well, they're where they communists and they they show the privilege pyramid with white people on
top and then above it is a free floating Jewish group. Like these are the memes that these people
were posting in 2018.
They think they were saying things like, you're not ready for the truth.
And it was the white privilege pyramid meme with Jews above it.
And then you've got people like this, because I don't know what they posted.
I know that people who are following them had been posting things.
I know that there had been a lot of instances where some members of Congress had images
from groups they were following were posting things like this and being a screenshot. I'm going to say this, by all means, please
criticize Israel. You're allowed to do it. Israel is just another country. I don't think the U.S.
should be funding any of this stuff. That's just my opinion. That being said, the Democrats do have
a large anti-Semitic contingent. Large could be, like you said, three to four percent. They're not
going to pick Josh Shapiro. It's much larger than 3-4%. I just think
there's only 3-4% that would
withhold their vote. I think the
anti-Semitic, quote-unquote,
I don't care. And I'm not big on the Jew thing.
I don't care either way, one way or another.
But it's at least 25-30%
of their party that just literally cannot
stand Jews. You think it's that big?
Yeah. Yeah, I do. I absolutely do.
Who's it all these largest? I think it's the progressives have become like the poison pill on on jews largely but and um i don't
necessarily think it's just the progressives muslims as well more fundamental fundamentalist
muslims i think you make a good point i don't think all the somali somali muslims in minnesota
are going to be like oh we won't vote for for a Jewish guy. But I think enough of them. Yeah. And that causes problems.
He won 11,000 votes.
Trump won these states, some of them 11,000 votes.
You can absolutely convince 11,000 of these guys to not vote.
And I'm wondering how they're going to vote for a woman, actually, though.
That's one of my things.
I wonder about that.
They don't respect women.
They hate women.
I think part of this is that we, the Democrats have painted it that, you know, they're the
open-minded party and they love everybody. And they, you know, it's just occasionally they have to
take down white people who are too much power for too long. And Republicans are the racist ones.
Well, that's just not true, right? Like fundamentally, a lot of racial, religious,
ethnic groups in America have tensions with other people of different backgrounds or different,
you know, persuasions, let's say.
And they have just marketed to convince themselves that they don't.
And I think that's why the conflict between Israel and Palestine really shocked a lot of older Democrats, because they thought, oh, no, no, we're the good guys and we're always on the same side.
And the reality is that there are tons of people who have bias against different racial groups.
It's in the Democratic Party, just like it's everywhere else in the world.
Absolutely. Let's jump to this next
story. Tim Waltz
labeled Tampon Tim
by Inferior Republican
after forcing schools to stock feminine
products in boys' bathrooms. Bad week to
be named Tim, I guess. I guess.
It's fine, though. I'm just going to go by
Daniel from now on. It's my middle name, so this is
Daniel Kast. Just wait out this storm for a little bit.
Wait out the storm. Tim's not a good name to have.
Tim Waltz, you're ruining it for me.
Do we have tampons in our bathroom here?
No.
Oh, well, that's not very good news.
Oh, wait.
Yeah, we do.
Oh, well, I guess we're.
Don't we?
I'll check later.
Come to the Members Only Show.
I'll let you know.
You're the only one who should know.
I'm pretty sure.
This is an office.
We've got mouthwash.
We've got hair trimming stuff.
I think there was makeup.
We used to keep hairspray on stuff if a guest was coming for it.
Accommodating.
I'm pretty sure we have literally everything you would need, like makeup and all that stuff.
Actually, we don't have makeup here right now.
We did at the other studio.
This studio had everything you could possibly need.
Change of clothes.
Shower downstairs.
Shower downstairs.
Yeah, because we're doing a show.
Tim's very accommodating to all of his guests, everybody.
Well, I mean, just standard studio stuff.
We've had instances where people have needed's just standard studio stuff. You know,
we've had instances
where people have, like,
needed a white shirt
or something.
You know what I mean?
Like, someone spills
barbecue sauce or whatever.
What do you do?
You know, you don't wear
barbecue sauce on the show.
Anyway, anyway.
We might start calling you
Tampon Tim.
I don't know why you're asking.
I'm Daniel.
This is DanCast.
The Democrat was announced
as the VP.
We know,
being a white military veteran
from the Midwest
broadens Harris' appeal.
I've heard people calling him Tampon Tim because why use a progressive individual
that wanted to put tampons in boys' locker rooms in the school as governor?
Florida Republican Rep. Brian Mass said of Harris's VP pick, picks gender policies.
The name Tampon Tim has since been used throughout conservative circles to describe the governor
picked to pad Harris's presidential prospects.
While I do think it's absolutely hilarious to call the men this, I think it is horrifyingly ineffective.
Someone else made the point.
I can't remember who was on Twitter.
They said all this will do is when a normie asks a Democrat, why are they calling him tampon Tim?
The Democrats going to say because he wanted to fund feminine hygiene products in schools.
And they're going to go, really?
That's why Republicans are mad?
The issue is he put it in the boys' room.
But that's never going to talk about that.
No, we're never going to talk about it.
It needs to be called transgender Tim.
No, I disagree.
I disagree.
What do you like?
Wreck the economy waltz or something like you.
I mean, honestly, Donald Trump knows it better when he just said like low energy or Lil Marco.
In that vein, I'd say wide mouth waltz.
He's got a big mouth.
He talks like this.
He's a weird guy.
Make fun of his appearance.
Mock him for being kooky and weird.
That seems to work at the lowest common denominator.
But tampon Tim, just like with the school books, We ask ourselves this every day. Why is it that we have shown these books time and time again where they claim it's sex ed for kids and it's just normal stuff and it's graphic porn and weird degenerate stuff.
And still to this day, the Democrat lie persists.
True.
Because it's been effective for them and we haven't cut through the mold enough.
Now, certainly a lot of people have been informed of the books in these schools.
And they say you're trying to ban books. Still on stage.
What do you get? You get Walt saying
they want to ban books.
No one wants to ban books. They want to ban
porn. But they're lying.
So calling him Tampon Tim or Trans Tim
or whatever is not going to do anything.
You got to take it from the Trump playbook and call him
like Wacky Waltz.
Wacky Waltz got a big white mouth and he lies all the time.
Well, Trump will coin the name soon and we'll see what it is.
And Trump's not going to use tampons.
What did he do?
Just call him Timmy.
Cause I feel like grown men, like you might call a kid Timmy, but you don't call grown
men Timmy.
Tiny Tim.
No, Timmy is good.
And then it feels kind of like he's not a serious person.
It's kind of emasculating.
Like if you're an adult man who goes by Timmy, that's totally fine.
I'm just saying. No, you're right. Timmy is the right way to go. And then be like, Timmy watched a serious person. It's kind of emasculating. Like, if you're an adult man who goes by Timmy, that's totally fine. I'm just saying. No, you're right.
Timmy is the right way to go.
And then be like, Timmy watched his city burn.
Timmy couldn't decide if he should.
He didn't have the leadership.
He was too scared.
How about Weasel Waltz?
That's a good one.
Weasel Waltz is good.
Weasel Waltz lied about his service, claiming that he was in combat when he wasn't because he's a weasel.
That's what they call him.
But Timmy works, works too because Tommy is fine
Sir, like you're not gonna call a grown man by usually these out. What are they called when you like someone names me? Well, yeah, like diminutive. No, it's not really an it's kind of a nickname
But yeah, yeah, someone's name is Richard call him Rick, but there's a you can call anybody Rick, but you'll come Ricky
That's some people. Yeah, Some people can keep it up, a Ricky.
There are just certain versions of these names that I think of as being for children.
Your family might have called you Timmy when you were four.
Not when I was seven.
You know what I mean?
You transitioned out of it.
You became Tim.
Same thing.
That's right.
I transitioned to Tim.
You transitioned into a more masculine form.
But I think this is the thing.
This is a man who is now claiming to have,
or implying that he has maybe seen combat he hasn't.
It, to me, is seeming very kind of immature.
I actually like that a lot.
You know what I mean?
Timmy, Timmy too.
Lil Timmy.
Lil Timmy Waltz.
He was scared during the riots, so he hid.
There's just so much.
The sad part is, in one week,
nobody's going to talk about this guy.
It's going to be back to Kamala.
I don't think so.
You think he's going to remain a focus.
One of the benefits to choosing Kamala Harris
as a VP candidate, and one of the risks,
is that she has no SEO.
So when you're crafting YouTube videos
or tweets or Facebook posts,
you need to consider,
if you're doing
any kind of social media marketing, the volume attached to someone's name. This is why there
are, you'll notice this, there are a lot of obsessed people on the left who make videos
about me all day, every day. It's because Tim Pool and Timcast have massive search volume.
So if you go on YouTube and you're like, I want to get 100,000 views, make a video about Tim Pool and people are going to watch it because they love to talk about me.
Kamala Harris has none.
Her search volume.
So we use these metrics that track by a percentile.
I think her search volume is like high 40s.
Wow.
Whereas mine is like 72.
So I have a higher search, a higher SEO.
It doesn't necessarily mean more people are talking about me.
Like there's more instances of Timcast. In this instance, I think it does. But let me let me
clarify that Kamala Harris has been in the news quite a bit, but she's never been the centerpiece.
So while there's a lot of articles and a lot of social media posts about her, social media
commentary was almost always about Joe Biden. And she was an afterthought. They'd mock her,
but they'd never use her in the titles, in the descriptions because her name never had strong
pull. I do think it's fair to say that only because I've been doing a show for a decade,
that there's going to be more instances of my name on social media, specifically where people
are insulting, attacking me, creating a lot of drama and arguments. And Kamala was more in the
corporate press. That may be why. But all I can say is if you make a video using Kamala Harris in the title, you get zero views.
There is no SEO attached to it.
I think the strategy there is make it very difficult for anyone to generate any kind of like.
I got to tell you, you try to make a video and you're like Kamala Harris is the VP and like YouTube will not recommend it.
It will not get easily found in search because
the way the algorithms work is when someone, if someone searches for a name and the percentage by
which people click on it is high, then YouTube or Google or whatever is going to keep recommending
that higher and higher and higher. Commonly Harris has a low SEO score. Now I wonder,
because we got another story we'll pull up in a little bit about how they're trying to hire people like Kaisenet and Faiz, I think his name is, to do
these streams with Kamala because of the Aiden Ross thing. They're trying to generate more SEO.
I wonder if this is their strategy. This is their version of the basement campaign.
Everybody knows Kamala Harris. We know her name, but it doesn't play well on social media because
no one really cares about
her. She's a bleh. She's an afterthought. Biden had history for a long time. She's got nothing
behind her. It is true. She's got no policy. She's got no plans. And so it's hard to actually go
after her. Social media personalities, I guarantee, especially on the left, are going to be saying to
themselves, if I make a video about her, no one's going to want to click on it. Yeah. But I actually think the mainstream press is getting kind of frustrated with her
because she doesn't have any policy. She's also refusing to do interviews. I was watching
an NBC morning show and they were specifically saying they're like, oh, yes, and she did a good
job and, you know, whatever. They're doing typical talking points. They're praising them,
praising Walton and Harris for the rally. But then they're like, well, she's really only answered one press question since her campaign began.
And I think that, you know, the lack of personality and just delving into sort of identity attacks on Trump and Vance is starting to sort of peter out.
I mean, if you looked at Vance just showing up at her airplane today, it was so funny.
She could never pull off that kind of organic online engagement where you get this funny photo of him walking out.
It's not the same.
She's a robotic person.
She has no personality.
She's extremely bland.
She's brain dead.
But she's stupid enough to know that she's stupid because she will not go talk to the press because she'll get obliterated.
She can't answer a question.
She couldn't even sit in this room and have a conversation with people.
She is just dumb, but not
dumb enough to not realize she's dumb. There's two
different types of dumb. What if she's like insanely smart?
I think it's a great campaign strategy.
That would be hard to believe. She should try her
hardest to avoid getting nailed down on any
policy positions. Her campaign is
You didn't try very hard before. You set me up for that.
It's strictly vibes
and she's running as a black
female. That's it. Even though she's not's running as a black female.
That's it.
Even though she's not.
She's a black woman.
Even though she's not.
And then the implications that supposedly come with that.
Abortion is a huge issue for Democrats, especially coming on the heels of the Dobbs decision.
So that is really the face. Not really on the heels though, right?
That's like two years old.
It's still on the like historical heels of the Dobbs decision.
She was the abortion lady.
Abortion is probably the number one issue mobilizing Democrats.
And now having a woman at the forefront, a black woman, nonetheless, people who have the most abortions, is what it's all about.
She doesn't want to get nailed down.
And then she can't be accused.
If she were to win, she can't be accused of not fulfilling her promises.
No promise you anything.
But ever since the Dobbs decision, she toured the country for two years going to abortion
clinics where she went walls, like you said.
All she did was talk
about abortion, abortion, abortion. That's
the only policy anyone even knows. It's a great
strategy for Democrats, though. It is.
It's kind of wild that the Democratic Party has
this large contingent of women terrified
to have babies and men who just want
to bang around and not be dads.
That's their voting block.
Yeah.
I mean, it's all fear-mongering, right?
Yes.
And so this becomes one of the key ways.
Abortions are like—
No, no.
I don't agree that it's fear-mongering.
I'm saying, like, there's a bunch of guys who are like, I just want to bang a chick
and not be a dad.
And there's a bunch of women like, yeah, I'd like to also, you know, do dudes and
then not be a mom.
Fear of responsibility, right?
That there would be consequences to the lifestyle that you live and you have to accept them. Like to me, this is, abortion is a very
difficult issue to handle in America because we don't have a clear consensus on it. We don't have
a clear cultural position on it. And it's evolved a lot, especially as, you know, we get more
information about science, about, you know, embryo development, whatever. And so it's very easy to be
weaponized as an emotional issue for people who are saying like, they're trying to lock you up
and keep you in the kitchen and men you'll
never you'll get stuck with any girl that
you sleep with and have an accidental like
they make this to be part of this
like this is the only way to keep up the lifestyle
you have even though this lifestyle is not actually
making it's not an issue they want to permanently
solve because if it were to be
permanently solved then they wouldn't be able to campaign
on it and raise money on it
also we love talking about campaign finance, but the biggest
PACs in the country raising the most money are all abortion groups.
It's NARAL, it's EMILY's List, it's Planned Parenthood.
They're making major moves, but nobody cares.
We gotta jump to this story from the post-millennial.
Oh, Post-Millennial.
Post-Millennial. The Post-Millennial.
Tim Waltz's wife, Gwen,
kept windows of Governor's Mansion open
during George Floyd riots to
smell the burning tires.
Am I allowed to call this weird?
Am I allowed, or are we
trying to... It's sick.
It's actually sick. These people just imagining
are like opening the windows.
It's sick. It's sick. Yeah.
They're Marxists. They love conflict. They love chaos. They're crazy people. Do they have the interview in here? Maybe it's hyperlinked. They don't. They have the window. It's sick. It's sick. Yeah. They're Marxists. They love conflict. They love chaos.
They're crazy people. Do they have the interview in here?
They don't. They have the quotes.
It was a radio interview.
I think it was a video
because I saw it.
And just the look on her faces
and her expressions
throughout it is what added an ounce.
Did you see the video of him?
Let me read the quote real quick.
I could smell the burning tires and that was a very real thing.
I kept the windows open as long as I could because I felt like that was such a touchstone of what was happening.
She added, noting that there were a lot of sleepless nights.
It's important to note her husband was the governor at the time, and the city here was on fire.
They abandoned, I think it was one of the precincts in this city that was eventually attacked and burned down.
This is where that famous CNN chyron, I think it was, with the mostly peaceful protesters.
I think we have it.
I would say those first days, you know, when there were riots, I could smell the burning tires.
And that was a very real thing and i kept the windows open for as long as i could
because i felt like that was such a touchstone of what was what was happening what she sounds
just like kamala when she speaks she the uh privileged white female is really with you guys
you progressives on the street she kept the windows open because she had a fence around her with security everywhere.
Of course, you keep the windows.
I mean, this woman's go out.
And why did she go out and protest with them?
I'd like to tell you my 2020 Summer of Love story.
I wasn't in Minnesota.
We were near Woodbury, New Jersey.
That's where the first location was.
That was just at my house.
And I thought we were going to be fine.
I knew the riots were getting bad. But I'm like, we're on the other side of the river.
We're in Jersey.
We're not in Philly.
You know, we're in a wooded suburban area.
Ain't nothing's going to happen over here.
And then one day I was on my deck and I heard sirens and I saw helicopters and I was like,
oh, what?
And then I checked the news and the riders crossed the bridge and they were only a few
miles away. And I was like, I don't think we should be anywhere near this place. And so I did not just
open my windows and take it all in. I said, we should move and we should move as quickly as we
can. And that's when we went to what we refer to as the castle, which was in Western Maryland.
And had I known then what I know now, I would have chosen West Virginia immediately.
But I thought the area was probably similar enough.
But we decided to leave because of it, because the riders from Philly, the crime, it was getting so bad.
They were crossing the bridge.
I said, let's go.
We're done.
Not to mention, I will also stress the COVID lockdowns.
We had a fear that they would shut the bridges down and then we'd be stuck with all that stuff going on.
So we were like, I don't want to be here.
Yeah.
It's a position of privilege.
They love to say white privilege,
white privilege.
That's a statement of white privilege.
Do you want to talk about it?
Did you see that clip of Waltz being like,
with white privilege,
I know I got to fight them.
He's a DEI hire is what he is.
He was only hired because he's a white man,
by the way.
That's a DEI hire too.
Reverse DEI.
Round out the edges of Kamala. He's a DEI guy. He's a DEI hire, too. A reverse DEI. Round out the edges of Kamala.
He's a DEI guy.
Just regular DEI.
Finally, let's go.
I mean, if DEI actually did help white people get hired in jobs, like Black Panther, the
movie, had a bunch of white people in it because they were concerned about being too many black
actors, I would respect that as a DEI hire.
But that's not what they do.
When Black Panther came out, they called it a diverse film or one of the most diverse.
I'm like, it's like 90% black actors.
It's not diversity. That's...
Diversity is the exclusion of white people.
That's the definition of diversity.
I don't think I would call Tim Waltz a
diversity hire. I would say he's a
DEI ideological choice.
Yeah. He's, you know, he's
in line with the cult. So he
serves the DEI purpose, but he himself is...
She only looked at white men i was gonna say
only wanted a white man it had to be white i think it's dei i think it's a diversity hire because it
was wasn't about anything but what his identity like what he physically looked like to the voters
right he's an older white male and then you can factor in the other identity things he's from
you know this this more rural state and so they they think, oh, well, he's white.
And so white farmers, they're going to love this guy close enough.
Never mind the fact that he became intensely progressive in office.
Never mind the fact that he, you know, was not supportive of law enforcement in the fallout of all of the rioting in his city.
And never mind the fact that he, you know, called a national, called them out.
Like it was it's it's not someone that I would say commanded a lot of leadership.
But he was, you know, older and white, and so that
was good enough for Kamala. It looks like the Waltz
family did see some combat, just not in the Middle East.
He was
in the governor's mansion. He's not seeing any
combat up close. Not at all.
He's the San Francisco
liberal. Well, his wife was throwing
some tires.
Raymond G. Stanley Jrr had a really good
one he said tim a waltz oh that's funny yeah it doesn't roll the tongue but it's a good job
hey waltz hey waltz look i just think timmy's not your guy like you don't want timmy to be in
charge of anything ask minnesota republicans don't want to attack white suburban women because that
is the core demo they're trying to reach out to
now, so I think that's a little bit, it would be sliding
them too much.
What do you mean? Isn't it a plan
awful? No, it's like AWOL.
Oh, never mind. AWOL. I picked it up
wrong. What is it, Away Without Leave? Is that what I mean?
Absent Without Leave. Is that what it is? I like
this because that means that you're terminally online
and not in the military.
No, no, no.
Not a day in my life.
But online.
I serve online every day.
No, I got it confused for affluent, white.
Female liberal.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I think the main attack on him really has to get to that bill he signed with the transgender stuff,
with the protecting pedophiles.
It wasn't that it was overtly. We this is we got to be we got to be clear on this okay it removed a provision
from law that excluded child predation as a sexual orientation so there was a law that said sexual
orientation is defined as such and then it added adults being attracted to children is not covered
or protected blah blah, blah, blah.
The Minnesota State Legislature and the governor signed this. They struck that
from the law. There's
no reason to do that! None whatsoever.
Unless you're supporting pedophiles.
That's the only reason.
I wouldn't want somebody around kids
who signed that bill just saying. I'm not
saying anything. But in reality,
you only do that if you
either support pedophiles or are pedophiles, only two reasons. And I think one of our biggest
challenges is that as a nation, we don't have a shared culture and therefore we don't have shared
values, but I'm pretty sure everyone, I'm no, not every, I can't say everyone. I think generally
everyone's anti-pedophile. There are small progressive... Everyone, yes. There are small movements on progressive political fronts
that are trying to make it more normal,
but generally every parent in America, I'm sure,
is like, no, that's not okay.
100%.
That needs to be hammered home 100,000 times.
Hold on.
Raymond G. Stanley Jr. says,
Jason Dixon gets credit for AWOLs.
That's Jason Dixon who came up with it.
Raymond Stanley Jr., such a stand-up guy.
He doesn't want stolen meme valor.
No stolen meme valor in this internet war.
A stand-up guy, that Raymond G. Stanley Jr.
Too much to his name, but stand-up guy.
I just think it's funny.
Back to the original story, Tim Waltz's wife opening the windows to smell the burning tires.
These people in their minds, the city is burning down and they're celebrating it.
This is a message that I think does way better than calling him Tampon Tim.
Figure out what this is, right?
They let one of their biggest cities burn.
The riots persist.
This is the governor.
And the wife was like,
the smell of burning tires.
I wanted to keep the windows open.
As if the destruction of businesses
and people's lives
was something to behold,
to celebrate.
This would be such a great line of attack,
but it's unfortunate
that Trump called Waltz,
I think,
during the riots
and was telling him
that he did a good job.
And this was a phone call
that Waltz recorded
with Donald Trump in 2020
and decided to release it now allegedly
i want to say allegedly because i have no confirmation can we do we have that do we want
to pull up which one pull up um trump talking to waltz about how good of a job he did um with the
riots that were happening in his city finding george it was on Kamala HQ. They put it out on that account.
Oh, did they?
It was very cut up.
It was very edited.
It was all cut up.
You know, I mean...
The Independent has something on it.
I think that's why this will become
a poor line of attack.
And I think the Harris campaign
had this tucked away in their pocket
anticipating this attack.
The audio of the call between Trump
and the group of governors...
Okay, they just locked us out. I am
not going to do whatever. Okay, it's gone.
Trump's saying he's actually very happy with Waltz's
handling of the riots and praised him for bringing in the National
Guard. I know Governor Waltz is on the phone
and we spoke and I fully agree
with the way he handled it the last couple of days.
Trump said in the call, adding Waltz was an excellent guy.
Despite the past praise, Trump has already
tried to make Waltz's response a campaign
point.
On Wednesday, he posted a photo of a burning car to Truth Social with the text that read,
Tim Waltz let Minnesota burn. Kamala Harris bailed out the ones who lit the matches.
I will tell you this. Now, I'm a reasonable person. I can understand that immediately following an incident, you don't know everything and you'll have a different view of it. Yeah.
If now, four years later, Trump's different view of it yeah if now four years
later trump's like well yeah in the years following the more information we gathered from it
the more camera angles the more videos we saw the more reports we got i began to realize he
actually didn't do that good of a job that being said even if trump praised uh waltz's handling
of the george floyd riots that doesn't change the fact that his wife
boasted about how she wanted to smell burning tires
in some sadistic pleasure.
Maybe it's because of a lot of my firsthand experience
at different riots,
but when I was covering the George Floyd riots
in New York City in 2020,
I don't think Trump did a good job of handling it,
let alone this governor.
Trump did a miserable job of handling all
of these riots. He should have sent
the National Guard a whole lot earlier throughout
the country. Insurrection act if he had to do it.
And instead, Trump tried
to play nice
guy. And look what they do to him.
They blame him for everything.
That's why he thought Waltz did a good job
because he probably thought he did a good job himself
with handling the riots.
It was also diplomatic in a way.
You're not going to start slamming him like that right then after the event.
The country was in turmoil.
You can't just start saying, yeah, this guy's horrible.
Then somebody goes and attacks Walz.
Oh, my God.
Trump inspired an attack on Tim Walz.
You know, you just got to be careful.
And I also think you have to, like, work with the governors, right?
Like, maybe Tim Walz didn't do that good of a job, but ultimately there was a lot of chaos going on.
And if you're the commander-in-chief of the country, you have to decide what battles in those moments are worth fighting.
Exactly.
So here's the challenge, right?
I've talked to a lot of people in politics for a very, very long time.
And I'll get people to say something like, I want to build a social media profile.
How do I make an account? And then I always say, how evil do you want to be? And they always go, I don't people to say something like, you know, I want to build a social media profile. How do I make an account?
And then I always say, how evil do you want to be?
And they always go, I don't want to be evil.
I'm like, okay, well, there's your problem because so many of these big YouTube channels, these political accounts, they choose the easy route.
Evil.
Lie, cheat, steal, manipulate.
You'll get more views.
And we see that.
I think the bifurcation in social media is really turning into merit versus cheating.
People who want to steal power versus people who want to earn power is becoming a big bifurcation here.
So when I when I look at what's going on politically, you've got one story which we'll we'll get into in a minute.
Kamala Harris invites Bon Iver to play to play an event.
So she gets a massive crowd and then all of these liberal personalities go, wow, Kamala Harris's Bon Iver to play an event. So she gets a massive crowd.
And then all of these liberal personalities go, wow, Kamala Harris's crowds are so big.
It's a real video.
Look at this.
They don't tell you the real context.
It's a Bon Iver crowd, not a Kamala Harris crowd.
They are lying to manipulate.
And so we don't do that.
The reason I bring this up, if during the summer of love riots, Donald Trump thought like a Democrat, you know what he would have done?
If if Donald Trump wanted to play this game the way the Democrats play it, he would have ordered law enforcement in front of the White House to stand down.
When the rioters tore down the barricades, firebombed the White House grounds and firebombed St. John's Church, he would have immediately said, stand down now. Pull law
enforcement out. These are federal law enforcement. Why? He could have said in a statement,
the risk to those that are peaceful is too great as the conflict escalates. And we're hoping that
by removing police, tensions may deescalate. What would have happened? They would have burned down
a historic church and they would have probably stormed the White House grounds. And then Trump would have fled to the bunker, got locked in.
The next day he'd come out and say the summer of, you know, the May 29th insurrection was an
affront to this country. The far left is a terrorist, you know, is full of terrorist
organizations and terrorist individuals. Instead, they said, shut down the protests, send in the
police. The police swept them all out. And then they went, OK, we got rid of it.
The next day they said Donald Trump was evil.
He attacked peaceful protesters and hid in his bunker.
See, the thing is, Trump and his people were like, hey, they're firing on the White House.
Stop them, which is the normal thing to do.
Democrats take a different approach.
They say, we don't need National Guard J6.
We'll be fine.
Police stand outside and say, I don't got orders.
It's fine.
Cops open the door and wave and take selfies with people.
And they say it was an insurrection.
Yeah.
The Democrats pulled the soccer match.
Whoa, I was nudged.
And they fall down and start screaming in pain.
And Donald Trump did his administration.
And Bill Barr did what normal people would have done.
The Democrats fight like it's a blood sport.
We fight like it's a hobby.
We don't fight as evil as we do.
I get what you're saying, but I would probably describe it as Democrats use subterfuge and manipulation,
and Republicans are—you know, I'll put it this way, and this could offend a lot of Republicans,
but Democrats are ninjas and Republicans are samurai.
Easy way to explain it.
Well, what's the—
Yeah, I don't get that.
Samurai fight with honor.
Oh, and ninjas are just...
And ninjas don't care.
They get the job done.
They just eat your head off, yeah.
So there's a really great video.
You can watch this.
Maybe it's a bit esoteric
to have brought up that analogy.
There's a really cool video,
martial arts training,
and it shows, like, samurai had, like,
they have rules, whatever it was called.
I don't know if Bushido was real or whatever,
but it was basically, like, you have rules, whatever it was called. I don't know if Bushido was real or whatever. But it was basically like you fought with honor and with purpose.
And the ninjas were just effective, get the job done.
And so they'd carry things.
They'd carry caltrops.
I think they're called makibishi.
And they also had sand and flour in pouches because they don't care about what you think is right in battle.
They just want to win.
So there's like mock.
You can watch martial arts training where a samurai will fight with a katana and a ninja will.
And the ninja will throw soot in his face instantly.
Just don't care.
Whatever is dirty enough to win will do it.
Republicans are approaching elections like this.
They're saying we have the argument on our side.
And when everyone comes out and votes, we will win because justice and honor.
And the Democrats are like sneak in the back and bring the box.
I'm saddened by how extremely spot on you were with talking about how to get ahead in the
political or media space about being evil. I would call it more like cynical, as cynical as you could
possibly be, and as openly partisan as you could possibly be. Because if you care about politics,
then you
are a partisan you are not a moderate lack any nuance nuance doesn't sell you know you have to
play to a crowd and um joey but no i think the republicans have to fight like democrats if we
want to win i think we're up against an enemy that is absolutely evil these people are like
subhuman they will do anything and we're not fighting them hard enough.
We keep losing.
So what's like the number one thing
you'd like to change?
Ballot harvesting?
If you could have one prescription
to fix this.
So exactly what you said.
Exactly what you said,
the ballot harvesting.
We have to do it legally, right?
We have to be legal about what we do.
But every dirty trick,
they go into the nursing home,
they fill out ballots with people. Oh yeah, I'll vote for Trump. Do it. Just do it.
If these people get in with their dirty tactics, you're not going to have a country to talk about
saving. Well, let's jump to this story from the New York Post. Joe Biden, quote, not confident
there will be a peaceful transfer of power in the first interview since dropping out of the race.
He says if Trump wins, no, I'm not. OK, they should not do this.
They should not do this because I've already criticized some conservatives over this.
They say in his first interview since ending his reelection bid, President Biden expressed doubt Wednesday that there would be a peaceful transfer of power.
If former President Donald Trump loses the 2024 election.
Quote, if Trump wins, no, I'm not confident at all.
What happened when he said that? Because Biden's brain is fried.
He said, if Trump wins, I am not confident there will be a peaceful transfer of power,
implying he and other Democrats would stop Trump from winning.
Right. He then immediately said, I mean, if Trump loses, I'm not confident at all.
He clarified. A bunch of conservatives then began posting it saying that just the first part,
as if to imply the Democrats were going to intervene. You don't need to do that. Jamie
Raskin already said he's going to do it. Kamala Harris is going to be the one counting the votes.
So expect it. But for Joe Biden, what he was actually saying is that if Trump loses,
Trump supporters will not accept this and there will not be a peaceful transfer of power.
However, my question then becomes, what does that imply?
Honest question. I'm not sure what you guys are thinking, because if he's saying Trump lost the election, by what means would there not be a peaceful transfer of power?
Is he is he saying January 6th again? Yeah, basically he's trying to say that there will be some display of violence because he's trying to set up to basically shut us
down. He's trying to set up to do stuff like they do in the UK. You can't talk about this, you can't
retweet this, or you're going to have trouble. They want to have a pretext to basically shut us down,
speaking, shut us down, demonstrating. That way they can just, because otherwise, what's the difference?
You have a wallop at the White House. Kamala can just walk right in.
Joe can handle the power. That's what they're trying to say.
I think this is so dumb because I think we're confusing ourselves with the rhetoric.
When we're talking about a peaceful transfer of power,
I thought we were talking about the administration.
I thought it would be a peaceful transfer of power from Joe Biden to Donald Trump.
There will be violence on the streets when anybody's elected.
When Donald Trump was elected, there was violence outside his inauguration.
Are you implying that Joe Biden is saying, I will not let this go easily if Trump wins?
I'm not understanding exactly.
Yeah, exactly.
So it's like when they're saying a peaceful transfer of power, maybe there will be some protests.
Maybe there will be some not peaceful protests. I fully anticipate that. But I don't think that understand what he's saying. When they're saying a peaceful transfer of power, maybe there will be some protests. Maybe there will be some not peaceful protests.
I fully anticipate that.
But I don't think that's what he means there.
So I'm trying to parse that together.
Maybe I'm reading into this too deeply.
He should have said, if Trump wins, we will not go peaceful into that good night.
That would have been based.
Instead, he's like, argh!
It's always to make Trump and Trump supporters look like they are on the edge of political violence.
When that has proven, let's look at January 13th to not be the case uh right there's this attempt
assassination of President Trump July July sorry uh and there's no rioting from anyone did you see
that crowd how they stayed so still nobody came nobody there was no it was like it was beautiful
what they think it was so calm and I think part of it is that Joe Biden had to sit out, sit on ice for a while.
Like he had to, you know, bow out of the campaign.
He had to let Kamala, you know, have her moment in the sun.
She immediately becomes aggressive.
She's immediately attacking them.
Immediately the felon thing sums up.
This is a guy who has just survived an assassination attempt.
She's immediately back to being aggressive.
And now that they're starting
to bring Joe Biden back out, he is supposed to be this like older, you know, seasoned statesman
who's kind of predicting the future. We know Joe Biden is completely biased in his thoughts. We
know that he has skin in the game for if Kamala wins and, you know, what his legacy will end up
looking like. So it only behooves him to say, well, you really, you know, it's not just about democracy.
It's like, do you want any safety in this country?
You gotta be really careful, man.
And then he whispers and stops talking.
What if, you know, one day you were,
you know, like Eli, you're out in DC
and, you know, you're in the Capitol building
interviewing people.
When you stumble across a room
and there inside is Kamala Harris,
Tim Walz, Donald Trump and J.D.
Vance. And Kamala starts talking about how we need to build a border wall. She's super based.
And then Trump says, it's very honorable for you to to play the bad guy, to pretend to be the
villain so that we can win and make this country great. How would you feel if it turned out they
were intentionally sabotaging? I'm half kidding about the first part. It's all just a scam and
they don't really care to address the issues they talk about
so they could run on them again?
Well, no, I mean, like, Tim Walz seems like a losing choice.
Like, why would they do it?
What if the reality is they're intentionally trying to lose?
Well, some people are saying that about the J.D. Vance pick.
Some people are saying—
That Trump is trying to lose?
No, that J.D. Vance wasn't the most politically savvy person to pick.
J.D. Vance ran under the ticket in Ohio when he won his senator race.
Like, I don't think he picked Vance thinking, like, this will earn me the most additional votes.
No, I think it gives him an advantage.
I just, you know, I look at the Kamala campaign and I'm just like, are Democrats intentionally just losing?
What else do they have, though? Like, what else can they do what what would be a picture hero
it could it could have been shapiro but here's the problem for three years they told us all how
much they did not want kamala they were talking before are we even going to keep kamala as the vp
on joe biden's ticket at this point they've put Kamala at the top because you can't, the rules of DEI apply.
You cannot go, a black woman cannot be thrown to the side for something other than another black woman.
Michelle did not want to run.
So all you had left was Kamala.
At that point, you're trying to salvage it.
You're just trying to put it together.
All I know is from now on, I got to go by the name T. Daniel Poole because Tim Walters ruined the name Tim. T. Dan's over here. No, I
mean, he's not great. I think the Democrats are in a weird position where they expect to win the
election and who they're going to put in place to do so with sort of secondary. I think that's
really bad sign for the country. But I think you're right. They were kind of stuck with Kamala Harris.
And I think there was a big faction of people who were like, let's just get Joe through the finish line, right?
Let's just run Joe and deal with the – if we need to replace him later.
But the reality is that the Democratic Party has a lot of its own internal problems.
And they couldn't have matched up a winning pair out of nowhere, especially when they already had obligations to Harris.
I think it sounds like a Republican talking point, but I think it's more than that in how the Democrats used to focus so much on their idealized version of democracy and how important it was.
But Kamala Harris didn't win any states in the Democrat primary.
Not one person voted for her because she was the VP. And I talked to a lot of different voters about this at Kamala Harris didn't win any states in the Democrat primary. Not one person voted for her because she was the VP.
And I talked to a lot of different voters about this at Kamala Harris's rally.
And they'd say, oh, no, we did vote for her when she was the VP.
But nobody, you know, what's the whole point of the primary process if just at the end of the day, the Democrats can anoint somebody new and not even have an open convention about it?
So while the Democrats will constantly talk about democracy, or it seems they started
ditching talking about it as a catchphrase, but it's like, where is the democracy here
in your primary at all?
Like, we went through this entire long, expensive process.
To what end?
To just get swapped out real quick because you're obviously going to lose, but I guess
democracy stays in the dump if politics takes a little too long.
One of our super chatters is saying that, you know, we sell lose, but I guess democracy stays in the dump if politics takes over. One of our super chatters is saying that,
you know, we sell coffee,
but we should sell TimCast tampons in light of the politics of it to merchandise.
I think the audience is...
Then you would be tampon Tim.
The audience is mostly male.
I don't think we need male...
Like this way they could get gifts
for their wives and girlfriends, you know?
I like that.
No, but, you know, not...
Get your wife a tampon.
Not gonna happen.
Here, buy a tampon for me.
You were gonna say something serious, Joey.
No, I don't even remember what I was talking about after that.
We're talking about democracy and how that used to be a catchphrase of the Democrats,
but primary system doesn't matter now because you could just get swapped out at the last
minute.
Well, what I was also saying is they know that Kamala would not have been able to go through a two-year election
season they know kamala harris would have broken down she's already breaking down yeah exactly so
they're like we can probably get her through 90 days they could not have gotten her to 360 days
remember the last time she ran right remember the last democrat primary she didn't even make it to
iowa the media loved her they wanted her back in 2020 nobody wanted biden originally kamala was the
chosen one she couldn't what didn't do it what if the october surprise is like a total public
mental breakdown like she's walking to her car and people are asking her questions and then she just
grabs her head she's like and she like drops to her knees and she just loses it she's used to that position but i'll stop i still second
time we've made a joke about that you know we did her whole career biden out but i still think we
need to focus on him still being the president of the united states and i don't understand it
sounds like a republican talking point but i don't understand how somebody can't be your nominee but
can still be the acting president of the united states i don't agree with that there are people who only want to be a one-term president i don't
i don't think i mean is he cognizant enough to continue his race though separate questions i
think that there are you you don't have to seek re-election to still be able to be the president
that being said i think there are obviously declines in joe biden's health and mental
fitness so maybe in this case yes we should question that but i don't i don't necessarily I think there are obviously declines in Joe Biden's health and mental fitness.
So maybe in this case, yes, we should question that.
But I don't necessarily think because you don't want to be reelected.
That doesn't mean that you shouldn't. I think it's odd that we were just satisfied with just the swap after everything we saw.
And that seemed to just tame everybody.
I wanted Biden to keep running, team.
In different countries, if a president is a lame duck, they will step down and allow their underling to finish out their term so they could campaign on that and kind of look like an incumbent.
I think Joe Biden would have dropped out if he could have.
I mean, really, I think the debate performance, there were a lot of questions about his viability as a candidate before the debate.
The debate was just fatal to him. And then, you know, the way Trump rallied after the assassination attempt and the fact that it was right for the RNC and the RNC was a really strong moment.
Like there was a reason Biden left the campaign the Sunday after all of that.
And to that end, I think Joe Biden left with the compromise that he was going to finish out his presidential term because all the messaging was he's, you know, he's been served his country.
He's allowing the party to rally and whatever else.
It's a legacy play.
He does not want to give it up.
He never wanted to give up.
And part of that is power and ego.
So we got these tweets.
Kamala Harris is currently speaking and she's being protested.
Good.
She's saying that you're going to help Donald Trump win.
Check out this clip.
Tax breaks to billionaires and big corporations.
He intends to cut Social Security and Medicare.
He intends to surrender our fight against the climate crisis.
And he intends to end the Affordable Care Act.
You know what?
If you want Donald Trump to win, then say that.
Otherwise, I'm speaking.
Wow.
I actually don't think that's a very good thing.
Yeah, you do not acknowledge protesters.
Real quick, they were chanting, Kamala, Kamala, you can't hide.
We won't vote for genocide.
Good, don't vote for it.
This is why they couldn't pick Josh Shapiro.
Imagine what the protesters would be doing if he was on stage now.
No, no, no, that's a misnomer.
They will protest her regardless if Josh Shapiro is the pick or not. I'm saying the protesters would have been stage. No, no, no. That's a misnomer. They will protest her regardless if
the protesters would have been bigger.
No, I don't.
This is great, though. She just totally dismissed
them. Look at her dismissing them.
This is her trying to be like, I'm a girl boss. I'm tough, but
she's doing this to her own people. This is going to
split the party. She looked nervous to me.
I mean, she looked nervous. She's terrified.
It gets better. We have another clip.
I haven't heard this yet. Let's play it.
Hold on.
You know what?
Here.
Hold on.
Here's the thing.
The courts are going to handle that.
We're going to beat them in November.
Oh, she put her black accent on for that.
She shook.
The courts shook up her.
She didn't like that they were yelling, lock them up.
She's trying to tamp down.
The courts are going to handle that.
You run the courts.
Yep, she does.
Family friendly.
She's already getting protested.
I gotta say,
I don't think she handled that well.
No, it's going to blow back
on her because you just dismissed the concerns
of your pro-Gaza
people and that's going to hurt her.
We need to make sure we throw that in their faces
so they remember Kamala does not care
about your concerns with the Israel-Gaza war.
Throw that in their faces over and over.
We got to just fight with anything we got.
I don't think the strategy of the right is to try and act like the left because, and I only clarify this, you certainly can't go, oh, how dare she dismiss the pro-Gaza people.
No, you can't say it directly, but you just need to target it to these people.
You can do targeted.
I still think that's a from the left, the left would have to do.
The strategy for the right is really, really simple.
When Tim Walz is like, J.D. Vance is just weird.
He's a weird guy.
You go, okay, do you have a plan for the economy?
Because I don't know what that means.
I mean, hey, my family's struggling to pay their bills right now.
Can you tell me something else?
The attack should be childish bickering doesn't get us anywhere.
But you can't just say it like that.
That doesn't work.
Politically, if you were doing a debate with Tim Walton, he was like, well, J.D. Vance and Trump are weird.
And you went, this is childish bickering.
No, no, no.
You have to be confused and go,
uh, look, man, I don't
know. I'm just trying to get the cost of milk, bread, and
eggs down. Vance has to respond
by saying, like...
Hello, this is M. William Phelps.
You might know me from my number one
Apple podcast hit, Paper
Ghosts, or one of close
to 50 true crime books I've
written. I've been an investigative journalist
in the true crime space for 25 years, and now have a weekly podcast, Crossing the Line with
M. William Phelps, where I delve into a new missing person or murder case each week. Get it
wherever you get your favorite shows. That doesn't bother me.
What bothers me is the fact
that American families
can't handle their grocery bills,
that they're struggling to make ends meet.
You can talk all day long
about what you think of me,
but I'm actually here for the American people.
Well, and the funny thing is
they're using the weird attack,
but these are people that literally
have transgenders and drag queens
running their whole party.
But again, this is a mistake
the right keeps making.
That means nothing to the average person. If you go to a regular like you go, you go to you go to the suburbs and you say that to them and they're going to go, huh?
You're right. They don't weird works, weird works. You go, no, they're sitting down being like, we don't know who to vote for.
And then Tim Walton, the Democrats are like, well, Trump and J.D. Vance are just plain weird.
You know, they're weird. If you then say coming from the party of transgender, blah, blah, blah.
Those two people sitting in those benches are going to go, you know, the husband's going to go, honey, I I still don't know what's going on.
But if you respond with excuse me, there are people in this audience who have deep concerns about how they're going to pay their their bills.
They're living paycheck to paycheck. Take the weird stuff. I don't care what you think.
My plan is X, Y and Z. And then they're going to go. I like that. That made no sense to me.
These these personal attacks like tampon Tim doesn't mean anything to the voters.
Democrats. Let me stress this. Kamala
has no campaign positions, none. Kamala and Waltz on their website list nothing. They are
begging Republicans say tampon Tim because it means Republicans are offering nothing in return.
They're saying, well, you call us weird. We'll call you tampon Tim. And that means the only
thing you're going to get are voters based on who they hate more. However, you want to win over a bunch of moderates?
Guess what?
Two to one.
Independent voters in this country think the economy is bad and getting worse.
Democrats think the economy is good and is getting better.
Don't ask me why, but they do.
So the attack there is really easy for Trump.
Just be like, the economy is not doing too well.
I know you guys are hurting.
I'm going to enact these plans.
Trump has been doing that.
That's the play. But I think the unfortunate thing is Democrats are really good at, they're
really good at getting the lowest common denominator. That's why they get Bon Iver to play
the Kamala event. True. This is why at Occupy Wall Street, they lied and claimed Radiohead was coming
to play. It brought, it worked. Like 3,000 people showed up. Dumb as a box of rock. Oh, Radiohead was coming to play. It worked. Like 3,000 people showed up. Dumb as a box of rock.
Oh, Radiohead's playing?
They all fell for it.
Sorry, those people are dumb.
Not everyone in this country is dumb.
I'm saying those people were.
And Democrats exploit that.
Republicans think they're going to come out and do the same thing Democrats are doing.
It's not going to work.
It's getting into a pissing contest.
All that happens is everybody gets covered in piss.
How about this?
When the Democrats want to have a pissing contest, you show up with umbrellas.
And you say, I got an umbrella.
Vote for me and it's yours.
And they're going to be like, I'll take it because this is nuts.
Yeah, it would be nice to see, you know, anytime they call J.D. Vance weird if he's just like,
your campaign is 18 days old and you have no platforms.
Like, we are this many days out from the election and you guys have not presented a single platform.
A $300 grocery bill is weird for a family of four every week.
That's weird.
That's all they should do is they should get the average grocery bill is weird for a family of four every week. That's weird. That's all they should do, is they should
get the average grocery bill prices on
a big board and put it right behind them anytime they do a
public event and be like, Kamala's
vice president. So I don't think she
has any public positions, but the way
Trump should be attacking him, and
the media's complicit in her not having any positions
because they don't question her on it, is that
she's Joe Biden.
And that's what we should expect. And I think that's how people should be attacking her. What? Let, is that she's Joe Biden. And that's what we should expect.
And I think that's how people should be attacking her.
What?
Let's just call Kamala Joe Biden.
Joe Biden, yeah.
I mean, what's this people?
It's as real as her other identity.
Yeah, you know.
She fakes she's a black woman.
And I think that's how we should understand her.
Yeah, just call her Joe.
Yeah, I mean, if she's not going to present her own vision
for what her administration would look like,
then you have to look to the records
that she's put her names on,
which are her time as a prosecutor,
which is deeply controversial,
especially among progressives,
and her time as part of the Joe Biden administration,
which, I mean, I just don't think Americans
are particularly happy with the state of the country.
I think you could go back to,
I mean, this is one of the things
that I thought Trump did really well
during the first debate,
which is just to go back
to the most important issues all the time,
the economy, immigration,
just saying like, these are the things that are bothering Americans.
We should talk about them.
Don't get distracted by any kind of personal, you know, weird or why are you sitting like that or whatever.
They're coming to come up with distract you because they're children.
They're acting like middle school mean girls.
Just talk about what Americans want to hear about, which is like the crisis that face them every day, the things
that make it difficult for them to sit down at the kitchen table and plan their futures
because they're burdened by so much fear about their economic future and also about the safety
of their families.
So there are some people in the chat saying, no, no, Tim, you got to go high road and low
road.
And there are others saying Tim only wants to not insult Tim Walz because it hits him
too.
Fair point.
No, I'm kidding.
I don't care.
Calm down on Tim.
The low road is not their mud pile, their mud pit, okay?
Democrats want to get the conservatives in the arena of mudslinging because it convinces no one of anything.
Like I was saying, you got some middle-aged dad being like, I got two daughters, man.
I'm living paycheck to paycheck.
I work 40 hours. I'm trying to pick up extra shifts. I'm trying to work overtime and I'm
still struggling to make ends meet. And what do they see? You're weird. No, you're weird. You're
weird. You're weirder than me. And he's like, I don't know, man. I just don't. That's why I'm
saying low road is going to be something more to the effect of a counter to the weird narrative
that doesn't just
say the same thing back at them. High road is when you respond with, look, call me weird.
My policies to help you get through, you know, to increase your wages and get prices down will
be X, Y, and Z. That's high road. Low road would be more like you're calling me weird. You're the
guy who did X, Y, and Z and did this thing and that thing and bad thing, and you're the reason this guy can't pay his bills.
You want to go low.
You want him to blow the belt.
Then you actually make them the problem, make them the fault.
High road is the honorable, let me convince you why I'm right.
Low road in this regard would be like Kamala Harris personally went to your house and kicked your dog.
That's low road.
Not just saying weird.
Tell the people how Kamala Harris has hurt them.
Just make it all their fault.
There you go.
I think low road is when you purposefully spread and elevate misinformation about other candidates.
That's evil road.
I mean, that's what the Democrats are really doing with J.D. Vance and the couch stuff.
Because a lot of the weird...
Which Tim Walz repeated.
Yeah, Walz referenced that in the in the philly rally
too um which is particularly gross and a lot of the weird stuff stems from that but like to
purposefully spread it's again it's being really cynical because this stuff actually works and it
does make jd vance sound weird and kind of silly and now jd vance can't address it either because
then if he addresses it he's kind of elevating this misinformation him saying that no i did not have sex with my couch yeah you strisand affected don't
talk about so that that's really the low road or evil road that we're actually seeing play out
beyond the the weird stuff is it's underlied by a lot of this purposefully spread misinformation
and wall started the weird attack he was the absolute birth of that attack was Was he though? I don't believe it. I don't like how
Democrats are giving crazy credit for it.
Like, oh, he called him weird.
Yeah, but I think it started with him. He's the
first big official that said they're creepy
and they're weird. They're not these scary fascists.
Weird thing to give him credit for.
No, I feel like, I mean, maybe he
picked it up and amplified it, but I really think that was started
by some millennial
girl in an office that's working on one of these campaigns.
Maybe I'm wrong, and you guys should give me your perspective on this.
But I think the other thing that would work, you know, when you say we should fight like them, the thing is they already know their style of fighting.
And so you can't really, you know, you're always going to be worse than interpretation of trying to do what they're doing.
I actually think one of the things the Trump campaign did well was to have a very positive message.
Like we are going to get back on track.
There is hope.
Things are going to get better.
And in contrast, both the Biden both the Biden Harris campaign and the Harris Wallace campaign have been strictly negative.
Fear them.
They're going to be bad.
They do bad things.
We won't have to lock them.
We won't go back. It's very negative. Fear them. They're going to be bad, do bad things. We won't have to lock them. We won't go back. It's very negative. I would actually like to see more positivity coming from the Trump
campaign because they did it well. I mean, this like positive, uplifting, like, you know, things
are dark right now. We got to get to the polls. But like there is a future. I think a lot of
Americans really want to hear that message. Let's jump to the story from SCNR. Kamala Harris surges ahead of Trump in national and electoral
college polling. Polly's high professor told SCNR Biden shows clear signs of aging. The public
viewed him as too old to be effective. Kamala Harris does not have this problem. And Frank
Luntz has predicted that Kamala Harris right now would win, saying, make no mistake, Trump's
advantage with the Republican convention after that ended is gone. It's wiped away. And if the election were
held today, I actually believe that Harris would beat Trump. That's how much things have changed
over the last two weeks. Harris leads Trump by half a point in the RCP polling average,
and several key battleground states have the two essentially tied. Luntz also pointed out,
with a little more than three months to go before the November
5th election, the contest is up for grabs.
I would also add that the polling market, I'm sorry, the betting markets are favoring
Kamala Harris in the swing states.
So, guys, you know, you better go register voters.
You better do everything you have to do.
Otherwise, I hate to break it to you, you're going to have a president with no campaign
policies or policy positions who was installed and not a single
person voted for. This would be the end of the republic. And I'm not trying to be cute. I am
saying if Kamala Harris wins, it will be, I believe it will be the first anti-popular president
without any mandate from the masses in any way. Because we can go back and we can look at,
you know, Gerald Ford, for instance.
He became president because of...
JFK was never elected. He was a VP.
He wasn't under JFK, was he?
No, no, no. Lyndon Johnson was.
How did Gerald Ford become president?
I think he was a VP first.
I don't think he got elected.
The president got assassinated, I believe, and then he was a VP first. I don't think he got elected. The president got assassinated, I believe, and then he was a VP.
No, I think it was Nixon resigned and Ford had to step up.
It was Nixon.
Nixon resigned and Gerald Ford becomes president.
But this is a standard process.
This is a guy who actually campaigned on a ticket with Nixon.
They won.
He gets elected and then he fulfills his duty.
If Kamala Harris gets elected president, it will be the first president who is installed by a party without a mandate from the masses and has no policies for the country.
No mandate from the country.
I think the Democrats were extremely shrewd how they played this past two crazy months of news and political cycle.
They did it extremely effectively and
kind of stole a lot of momentum that the Republicans had going into their convention.
So we had the Trump assassination attempt. That was probably the day where Trump was most popular.
And the coming days after that, with all of the people coming together, this was after the Joe
Biden debate where Joe Biden performed extremely poorly. Trump was getting that boost from the
convention. But all this was all while behind the scenes, the Democrats were replacing Joe Biden. And that
was exciting and motivating so many of those Democrats. And now we're seeing that boost
after Joe Biden is being replaced on the ticket by Kamala Harris.
They had to wait till after the campaign, because that way Trump was locked into a VP pick.
All the excitement for Trump was, I mean, the big events were over, right?
The RNCs, arguably the biggest event.
That ended.
So now let's drop the bomb.
We're going to put Kamala in.
And now all the momentum, the traditional momentum is with her.
You have the DNC next.
It's going to be a vibes and worship fest.
They're going to have every celebrity.
You're probably going to drag Taylor Swift out ofienna if they don't blow her up before and she's going
to go and do this big republicans hit their stride too early with the only way the media could turn
the the news cycle right and they did a great job biden out because after and i you know after that
you know 10 day period let's say like the pressure was already on after the debate.
You know, that late June debate, Joe Biden was looking so weak, but he was not willing to go every day after the assassination of going to the RNC that you got these stronger images of Trump.
Not just the standing up on the stage and like putting his fist up and that like swell of USA chanting him coming to the RNC with the bandage on his ear,
like all of the things that happened there,
the moments that he had with Corey Compitore's uniform jacket,
like these were, I think, really big moments for the country
that I think could have been points of unity.
And the Democrats knew there was no way for them to message and say like,
yes, we need to turn down political rhetoric or political tensions
because they need that.
That's the only way they can compel their voters.
Their whole thing is Trump is Hitler.
It was huge momentum for the Republicans based off those three events.
The debate, the assassination attempt, then the convention.
And the Democrats stole all of that thunder by having the biggest news story of the past decade, probably,
of a nominee, a presumptive nominee being swapped out.
And then the focus became
kamala harris following that and it's been kamala harris since then so obviously the camp we have
more time they added so much pressure to biden the only thing that they could do was get him
to drop out and to put kamala in charge to regain control of the news cycle otherwise all we would
have been talking about to this day like how we haven't talked about the fbi's you know conversations
about thomas crooks we haven't talked about this FBI's conversations about Thomas Crooks. We haven't
talked about this in a long time because they have been able to single-handedly say,
we're talking about Kamala now. Nothing else matters. They set the new cycle and they do a
great job of it. And now Kamala is the only topic of conversation. The Democrats are so excited.
No policy and was hated. It's all vibes. It's all vibes and what she represents as a black woman,
as a woman of color.
And the Democrats are hitting their stride.
Kamala Harris is gaining all the momentum right now because the Democrats
felt like they were in a rut.
They felt like they were screwed over by Joe Biden.
They were burdened by him.
He was a ball and chain to them.
Now they feel like they just,
they are just unburdened by Joe Biden.
And they have a candidate who in their eyes thinks represents their voters
and helps represents the issues that they're focused and that's why she doesn't want it to
be and that's why the democrats are hitting their stride and that's why frank luntz is saying you
know it looks like harris might have the and you had an interesting interview because you were at
the rally that i liked with uh there was a guy that you spoke to and you you said he said like
why do you support kamal and he was like like, oh, well, I think it's really
really important that we have, you know, the first
female, first black,
female black president. And I think that's a good idea.
And you kind of pushed him on it. You were like, hey, man,
what does that mean? Can you explain that to me
a little bit more? Like, why is this important? And it
sort of was nothing. Like, it was just
well, it's important that people feel
represented. It's not important. It's like, oh, if a woman becomes
president, therefore, you know, we've overcome all the bigotry towards women.
If a black person becomes president, you know, the country's no longer racist, which can't be true because Obama was president and Democrats still say our country's racist.
So no matter what we do, we're tarnished by the poison of racism, even if, well, I guess he was only half and it wouldn't work with Kamala.
Kamala is less than half. She's like, well, I guess he was only half and it wouldn't work with Kamala. Kamala's
less than half. She's like, no, there's nothing there. And she specifically says, so this whole
thing about the first black female president, you got to ask these black voters, what has Kamala
said she's going to do for the black community? She literally laughed at that question. She laughs
at everything. So that's not the biggest deal, but she laughed and said, well, I'm going to just
focus on things that are good for all the people, which is a right answer, right? That's not the biggest deal. But she laughed and said, well, I'm going to just focus on things that are good for all the people, which is a right answer, right?
That's the right answer.
Technically, that's not the answer that people want to hear.
Many black voters are mostly concerned with representation.
There's no black agenda.
And whatever the Democrats are doing, they're clearly doing it the right way.
And they're very effective at it with the black community yeah and um whatever they're
doing they're doing an effective job at dominating uh the black community it's just terror it's
terror they're terrifying them to an outrageous degree i think joe biden won next to 90 percent
something close to 90 of the black vote the numbers that sound ridiculous sound outlandish
sound made up um so well they convinced him Trump's a racist. And then the Project 2025, nobody even knows what that means anymore.
That's just thrown out at any, you know, oh, yeah, well, things are going to be bad.
Project 2025, nobody knows what's in it.
On Project 2025, Democrats might not know what's in it, but they fearmonger about it very effectively.
I spoke to many people yesterday at Kamala Harris's Philadelphia rally
who where I wouldn't mention it,
they would mention it
as one of their biggest concerns.
So it is sort of the Democrats' DEI
or CRT from past elections,
if you will.
It's become the new scapegoat phrase
to attack when there isn't something.
And we can't win on that.
We can't win on talking about Project 2025. We just can't.
We have to get it back to the issues.
And we will. I think we will.
As soon as she has to debate him,
it's going to be pretty different.
Maybe Trump will deal a second knockout
blow to the next. We'll see who's
up after Kamala. They're going to swap
Kamala out after the next debate.
The same thing she did tonight, which is to go, I'm speaking.
She's going to wait for Pence.
She's going to have a female moment.
If she does angry black woman at the debate,
America does not like that. This is not a
Madea movie. It's not going to work.
You say that, but the media will praise her.
The media will.
You did this with Pence, right?
I'm speaking.
The media loved it, but it doesn't come off
well. It just doesn't come off well.
You're talking about middle American votes.
You're talking about votes in the Midwest.
None of this matters.
This is not going to work.
None of that matters.
Ballot harvesting matters.
It's true.
It's who counts these votes.
It's really all it is.
I saw a ballot box in D.C. today.
Why do we still have ballot boxes?
We don't have COVID anymore.
Why do we still have these things?
And we've done
nothing about election integrity. With that being said, I still think we win it. I really do. I
still think Trump wins this. But we've got to get smart. And once we're in, we've got to use every
bit of that power for these four years to hold back what they're trying to do to us. Because
God knows if she gets in, she's not Joe Biden. This woman is going to have a competent team,
and she is going to push the most radical agenda that anyone in this country can even conceive of.
And if we don't push back in the four years that we may get now, we're going to have nothing by
the time. Well, I mean, if an installed candidate ends up winning, it just gives Democrats what
they've been hoping for for a very long time, Chinese communist-style governance.
The party decides who is going to lead the country, and everyone else just falls in line or else.
And did you see his little thing today, Walls?
It was from the past where he says, well, you know, free speech and all, but misinformation cannot be tolerated.
And disinformation cannot be tolerated.
They're literally Marxists.
It's MAGA versus Marxism. And he said that as a guy
who was spreading misinformation
about J.D. Vance and
about his own service record.
This psychopath.
Super cynical. We're going back to this about
succeeding in politics and just
being as cynical as you could possibly be. What do you think
J.D. Vance should do on the debate stage?
Presumably he will debate Waltz.
Flaunt his record as a veteran as a contrast to Walz's lack of,
and not actually stolen valor, but talking about being in combat.
I think he should act like a statesman because Walz is going to try to put on this folksy act
like he's some man of the people.
I think Vance needs to just literally just be very, very statesman-like.
Do VPs even matter?
Who gives a, you know, nobody's getting excited over, I don't think, over J.D. or Waltz.
It's all about Kamala and Trump.
I mean, look, Kamala's got no staying power.
Waltz has got no staying power.
J.D. Vance has a little bit.
Trump has a lot.
If this election were literally the two of them you you take 10 people you put them
in a room you get kamala and waltz and trump and vance and then you ask people to vote they're
voting for trump and vance no question done instantly it's going to be it's going to be
unanimous 100 trump feels like a president this is not what the election is okay the election is
going to be blue areas that are in cults red areas with a lot of voters, all the same will just rubber stamp
are no matter who it is.
And then Democrats are like that.
OK, so that's locked.
You've got D plus 30s, R plus 30s.
All we got to do now is ballot harvest the rest.
This election is going to come down to the infrastructure and mechanisms by which Republicans
are prepared to win.
That's it.
That's why Trump lost in 2020, because Zucker Bucks and all the rest of them had a quote unquote shadow campaign.
They called it, which was the mechanism and infrastructure by which they get more numbers than than the Republicans.

It's all about Pennsylvania, baby.
And the Democrats didn't pick the popular governor from Pennsylvania.
So I hope that'll be their fatal flaw in all this.
It would be funny if it was that they just couldn't put a Jew on the ticket that brought them down in the end.
That would be pretty ironic.
Republicans need Pennsylvania.
And they lost it the last three.
It would be great to have it.
I also think Pennsylvania is a weird state for Democrats because Netanyahu went to high school there, right?
I mean, like, there are things... He did?
Yeah. Really? I had no idea.
Where did he go? Penn?
High school. I don't know where he went. And then I think he also went
to MIT and
did a stint at Harvard, but there's a large Jewish
community in Pennsylvania.
But we can do it without Pennsylvania if we do
Georgia, Nevada, Arizona, and
Wisconsin. So there is a path without it.
Pennsylvania would be great.
Pennsylvania would be the best.
But, you know, it's hard because you've got Philadelphia.
And Philadelphia is just so rife with bad election policies and bad drop boxes and all the –
it's just hard to win when you have Philadelphia in the mix.
I think it can be done, but it's going to be tough.
Scott Pressler is doing a great job.
He's doing an incredible job.
He literally moved.
I mean, I'm from Pennsylvania.
My mother lives in Montgomery, which is kind of a swing county.
Even my mother, God forgive her.
She's not all in on Trump.
She's voting for Trump.
I mean, it would be very hard to not with me as a son. But it's just a lot of these women in that area. They're like, oh, well, you know, he says weird
things. And Kamala is so different. She's a woman. She's this. You have to break that conditioning.
You have to break that conditioning of these people. I don't know how you do it in 90 days.
You talked about messaging, right? If we just compared records like we've done this a couple times tonight i mean you know crime is worse in minnesota under waltz right do you want crime to be worse
everywhere because apparently these two people don't think that you know this is a serious issue
kamal harris was donating to or like supporting uh funds to get rioters out of prison uh let's go
back and look at the school issues
right like there are ways to say like it's fine you don't like trump's personality you think vance
is you know an incel i guess even though he has kids i don't whatever the whatever the weird and
stups his couch okay fine whatever his issue is like fine fine fine but look at the way they voted
look at the policies that they've enacted and compare to this. And the border.
Right.
The border issue.
They're going to come into your community.
They're going to rape your daughters.
They're going to do this.
They're going to take all the resources.
You have to focus on the violent crime that they're going to do.
That scares the hell out of suburban women, scares the hell out of everybody because these people are literally, look at Europe.
That's what I always say.
Look at Europe.
You tried this experiment of great migration. I spend a lot of time in these people are literally look at europe that's what i always say look at europe you tried this experiment of great migration i spend a lot of time in europe okay i literally see it in these places these are the the cradles of civilization where we're supposed to be able
to show the greatest things that we've done and you have these disgusting third world creatures
running around ruining it ripping things apart, burning things down, graffiti
on everything.
Europe looks like a mess.
Let them understand that America is going to be just like that, but it's coming to the
suburbs.
And it is.
One last point on your mother.
We're going to Super Chats.
Oh, real quick.
One last point on your mother.
Was it your grandmother?
Who was saying she was a leader?
Yeah, my mother.
No, I think we're, I know we're continuing to be polarized along gender lines.
And as much as we like to pretend that representation doesn't matter to people, that is seeing somebody in office in a position of a person who so-called looks like them is important to people.
Women do want to see, and it is important for many women to see a female in that role.
And we'll vote for them because of that. So we can pretend representation isn't a big issue for most people,
but it's very important to people consciously and subconsciously.
We're going to go to Super Chat.

Great viewer. And I think it's true for a lot of
branches. Yeah, he works here. I know.
I met him on our trip. For the
Marines in particular, like whether or not you see combat
from what I know from them is a big
deal. I mean, this is meaningful
to voters. Yeah.
Corey Anderson says, Tim, thank you for hiring

So that was all thanks to members who helped make something like that possible.
And it's fantastic.
We're really grateful that you guys helped.
Mudromper says, greeting from the land of rocks and cows.
In rural Minnesota, we embrace the name Waltz gave us just like you embrace the weird.
Shirts, flags, and whatnot emblazoned with his name for his enemies. He said, but just full of rocks and cows.
That's what he told people.
The rural Minnesotans ain't there.
All right, let's grab some more super chats.
A brought us his hi, Tim.
I hope you address some of Joey's comments last week regarding Kyle Rittenhouse.
Been watching since 2020, and I love what you guys do.
Hashtag Trump 2024.
I don't remember exactly what you said, but we talked about how when Kyle Rittenhouse said he wasn't going to vote for Trump,
that a bunch of people started piling on and what did we call it?
Struggle session.
Struggle session.
You could call it that.
Can we get a refresher?
Joey, what happened and what did you say?
I don't remember everything I said, I'm nasty when I don't like something
if you follow me on Twitter you know
there's nothing nice about me
I'm nasty to everyone all day so he said
he's gonna support
Ron Paul or something yeah
which was just ridiculous because he's got
never Trumpers whispering in his ear
but you've got 2 million followers
you gotta be careful with a platform like that
and I understood later somebody called me and explained
he's got very bad people surrounding him
that are just absolutely...
That poor kid.
But I think us piling on him is why he then turned around,
in my opinion, because he's like,
okay, I'm going to lose everything I got.
I better shut up here and get on the right side.
And maybe breaks him apart from those people
that were putting that stuff in his ear.
No, I don't.
I think what happens now is the people who are actually they're going to say, you see
how evil these Trump supporters are.
You see how nasty they are.
We were right, weren't we?
He's going to go, you're right.
You think so?
Yep.
One hundred percent.
How old is Rittenhouse now?
How Rittenhouse does not feel good having people attack him in mass on social media.
Nobody does.
And so he's started by never Trumpers who have been telling him likely that Trump supporters
are cultists and that
Trump's bad on 2A, you can't support him.
Then they started showing him all the stuff
that claimed Trump was anti-2A.
And then Kyle was like, wow, that's really bad.
And they're like, you should make a video about it if you feel that way.
He said, okay. Then when all the Trump supporters
bombard him, these Never Trumpers who are
still there are like, we were right, told you.
And he's going, yeah.
And he's saying, like,
I had to put it out because they wouldn't leave me alone.
But he wants a career. He wants to continue
a career. I don't think he would go that way.
I don't think Kyle Rittenhouse wants to be in politics.
No? No. I think he's so
young and naive and, like, not the smartest
guy. Got thrusted into
a crazy situation that he
sort of put himself in, and now is
struggling to navigate. Yeah, he told
us this. He came on the show. He was like, I'm not a political guy.
I don't know anything about this stuff.
He's not a smart guy, generally.
He's not the sharpest guy. I've listened to him talk
multiple times. I've covered multiple events where
he's speaking and stirs up
drama as a result of that. He doesn't know what he's doing.
And also, he's not aware of
how people and organizations are using him.
He's been used as an anti-BLM symbol constantly,
and he's been advertised as such,
although he wouldn't describe himself as such.
So there's a lot of conflict and issue
of who he is actually, how he represents himself,
and then what he says.
So he's not a smart...
He's young and has a lot of maturing.
What bugged me was the support, though,
because most of MAGA did donate.
A lot of people donated to that fund for him
that got him a great defense.
And you know how it goes.
Your lawyer is who keeps you out of jail.
If you have a good lawyer, you stay out of jail.
If you have a bad lawyer,
probably not going to stay out of jail.
MAGA got him a great lawyer.
The other guy took a plea deal
and went to jail, didn't he?
I believe he did. Yeah? I believe he did.
Yeah, I believe he did.
That's so funny.
They were like, it's not actually illegal for him to have a gun.
The other guy's like, I went to jail for it.
Yeah, so what bugged me most was like, you got all this money from MAGA to keep yourself safe,
and now, okay, I'm going to vote for Ron Paul.
This is why the right loses.
You think?
Because the never-Trumpers are playing Democrat games.
They're lying to Kyle Rittenhouse and manipulating someone with two million followers to get advocacy for their stupid hatred of Trump.
And then the right walks up to the gates and just screams as loud as they can.
And it's like anybody who's playing chess is going to defeat anybody with playing with checkers pieces.
So if their plan was, I got an idea.
How can we make it so Kyle Rittenhouse never likes Trump supporters and hates Trumps for the rest of his life?
Well, it's not so easy to do, right?
What if we get this?
Let's tell him that the real issue with Trump is not that Trump's bad, but that Trump's not good on 2A and Trump the bump stock ban.
Then we'll get all the Trump supporters, like Cat Turd and Joey, they're going to rip him to shreds.
And then we're going to use that as proof.
I've talked about this with how the Democrats do it.
They invite college kids down to a peaceful protest or they say stupid things like radio
heads playing at Occupy Wall Street. Normies show up. Then the left intentionally instigates a fight
with the cops. So the cops beat the normies. Then when the normies get injured or arrested,
the activists go, see, aren't police evil? And then these normies are like, I didn't even do
anything. I was just I was just standing and the cops were hitting me. And they go, yeah, it was the cops fault. And then they arrested you. Wow. And that's how you turn people into far leftists. They notoriously during Occupy Wall Street and the jail. The people who are scared and have no idea what's going on are locked in a cell, shoulder to shoulder, sweating and filthy overnight.
And the protest organizers say, we love you.
Let's sing songs together so we all feel better.
Take my phone number.
That way you can help us.
Don't you see how evil the police are?
I'm trying to understand what Joey did.
You ostracized him.
You commented, told him that he was dumb to not.
I tweeted some things, basically, that were just ridiculous and we shouldn't take this kid seriously.
I attack people.
If you follow me, you know I just attack people very harshly.
If you're a public figure, you're also not beyond criticism and especially harsh criticism.
Kyle is barely.
And so the issue is he's got two million followers.
No, no.
He can't barely be. He is barely a public figure. He struggles is barely. And so the issue is he's got two million followers. No, no. He can't barely be. He is
barely a public figure. He doesn't. He
struggles to speak at events. He has no idea what he's talking
about. He goes out and is paid to speak
at public events. Yeah, terribly.
I'm not trying to be mean to him. Like, he's a kid
who, he doesn't, he was
thrust into a situation. He had no idea what was going
on. He didn't understand politics. He
didn't understand what was happening around him or why
the riots were going on. He was trying to help the rioters and provide medical attention.
He was completely out of what was going on.
Out of his depth.
He was providing first aid to the rioters.
I didn't know that. Wow.
Right. And so then they try to put him in prison because the rioters tried to kill him.
He wins and we celebrate justice being served.
This poor young man in this position didn't do this.
He's a public figure only because the left tried to murder him.
That guy who had the handgun and was going to shoot him and then lamented that he didn't do it on social media.
Kyle Rittenhouse is only a public figure because he survived.
And then from that, it doesn't mean he has any idea what he's talking about.
But he does have two million followers.
And so if you're a Never Trumper and you know that Republicans are terrible at this stuff, you play the Democrat game, get him to make a tweet.
And then in invariably when the Republicans and, and, and, you know, play the full hardcore,
we're going to attack Kyle Rittenhouse and make him feel bad. Now they're sitting there going
like, man, that's so awful. That happened to you. We told you it was going to happen. We told you
the Trump supporters were nasty. We told you it's a cult. And Kyle's going to be more now pushed to the middle and pushed away from Trump.
I think he's very impressionable, very naive.
And I think he has a lot of people around him telling him a lot of different things.
And he's out of his depth.
He needs to clear those people out around him.
For a fact, he's surrounded by never Trumpers.
Well, he was working with Turning point for a while too where they were
taking him on tour i think one of kyle's biggest challenges is that when he this happened he was
17 right he's not like let's say riley gaines who was already pretty specialized in swimming
and she was already in college she's a little bit older a little bit mature when she sort of
developed not by choice but she was thrust into a position where she said i'm going to speak out
about this issue and has kind of built herself a career off of that. Kyle was so young when this happened that
I, you know, I remember at one point, I don't remember who he said this to, but you know,
someone I hadn't talked to, he said like, like, didn't, didn't Arizona State University like
rescind his admission? Like there is a certain point where he is a public figure and I think
people wanted him to be something that he was not naturally I think
it's sort of ridiculous to be like he's not saying the thing that he should be and I get to your
point he has a big platform and people look to him as a symbol but the reality is that he is a young
guy who is still actually developing his way in the world and he is not the person that I would
necessarily say how you sit how you tell people to vote is is uh what you should listen to not
because he couldn't be someone great one day.
It's just right now he's sort of still developing who he is.
I don't know that we need to make it a bigger issue than that.
I think it isn't a beyond reproach.
People are free to attack him.
On the other hand, if you are saying everything Kyle Rittenhouse says is how you're going to live your life, probably not the best move.
True.
All right.
We got Jesse Rosenfield says he retired
as a MSG E8
not a CSM E9.
His promotion was conditional and he did not
complete training. When he retired, he was
demoted to MSG.
What is that? Master Sergeant?
Yet he says in his campaign that he
retired as a CSM. A lie.
And a lot of the media is reporting that
he was a command
sergeant major is what is reporting that he was a command sergeant major,
is what they're saying he was.
And he actually was not.
Alright, David says, Walt's also called everything
outside of the city is just rocks and cows.
Wow. Yes, because he does not like you.
Yeah, he's an elitist. They're all elitist.
We're going to push the teacher
thing now.
Well, she calls him Coach Wall walls all the time in her speech
coach walls coach oh shut up all right 399 bc says maga maga maga maga maga thank you i wonder
what they who they're gonna vote for kamala alahad says hey tim did you see the harris campaign is
paying 200 250 dollars for three posts in favor of her presidency might be worth looking into. I did hear that.
That's $250?
I mean, depending on how big your channel is.
Josh Abim Kildon says,
Been a subscriber since Tim started asking, would you kindly?
And have been a Timcast member since it started because this is the only place online where minds are regularly changed about politics.
Thank you.
Oh, that's cool.
Appreciate it.
And the would you kindly reference is a Bios. Appreciate it. And the Would You Kindly
reference is a Bioshock reference.
You guys familiar with this? No.
With the game? Yeah. I don't know the
reference, but I know the game. So anytime the
guy was asked, Would You Kindly do something?
He was compelled to do it.
So in the game throughout, he says,
Would You Kindly do this? And then you as the character
have to do a thing, and then it's revealed you're like
under mind control or something. Would you kindly hit the
like and subscribe button? And that's
what I say. Do you have the power? Anybody who says
that phrase can compel someone? Or is
it a certain person has to? I think you need to be
bio-shocked, which...
Alright, John Christen says, I am convinced RFK
got the brain worm from playing with that baby
bear. I mean, it's possible he
shoved his hand in his mouth. He is such a weird
human being, RFK. I'm starting to sound like a Democrat. Yeah, but you know, it's possible he shoved his hand in his mouth. He is such a weird human being.
You're starting to sound like a Democrat.
But you know, it's not wrong and he sounds like a fun guy.
The bear story is wild. I want him to
come on and tell more stories about his wacky
life. I actually don't.
Just stop.
I love that he is a major factor in
the upcoming election. I do too.
I mean, I think it keeps it interesting.
If I'm going to live through unprecedented times. You think he endorses Trump? that he is a major factor in the upcoming election. I do too. I mean, I think it keeps it interesting. Just like a fun little wild card.
I think he endorses Trump. If we're going to live through unprecedented times.
You think he endorses Trump? Too much of his campaign has been the anti-left,
anti-right, I'm neither. There's a decent
probability I think he endorses Trump.
I think he's more likely to get a position
in a Trump administration than he is in a
Harris administration. Oh, the Democrats hate this guy now.
I think he's going to get neither. I think he's going to get neither
and both are going to sour on him. I'm not saying it's guaranteed.
I just said, you know, if he is going to eventually
strategically, he would negotiate a
position within the Trump administration and
endorse Trump if he was smart.
I don't know if he's smart. I don't know how much damage
the worm did, but like, we'll see what
happens. It could happen. I just want to
like have a story, our YouTube channel
where he's like, okay, one time I was going,
you know, whatever. I think it gets a lot weirder channel, where he's like, okay, one time I was going, you know, whatever.
I think it gets a lot weirder.
A real Doug Lane says, I was an army saxophonist and spent 15 months in Iraq in 03-04 with rockets incoming every day.
A saxophonist in the army band.
I have more combat experience than Waltz.
Coward.
Thank you for your service.
Absolutely.
Saxophone in the army band.
Do you think when you enlist as a musician in the military,
you're like, I'll probably stay domestic.
They won't send me anywhere.
And you get your deployment orders, you're like, well, that was a twist.
Going to Iraq.
All right.
Dex and Dice LLC says, hello, Tim, Hannah Clare, and everyone else.
Tim, I'm just in a local game store, LGS, in South Carolina,
that would love to host a commander night with you, Moon Lord, J.D. Vance, and myself.
Never happened, I know, but that would be amazing.
J.D. Vance plays Magic, is that it?
I think so.
I've heard.
Wow.
We've got to get J.D. Vance, Post Malone, and Moon Lord.
That would be the most amazing combination.
J.D. Vance, Post Malone playing Magic.
Phil Labonte plays Magic as well.
I don't know if we could show, but I think that's a whole counter filled
with Magic the Gathering decks. That is
a particularly expensive
rack of Magic the Gathering commander decks.
Let's see. There's 1,
2, 3, 4,
5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10,
11, 12, 13, 14, 15,
16, 17, 18, 19,
20, 21, 22, 23 commander decks.
A lot of magic.
If you could, we could... 23!
You got JD and played magic against him.
That would make for some fun content.
And these commander decks, only one of them is close to what's called competitive EDH.
That means Elder Dragon Highlander or Commander.
We'll call it for short.
Only one of them is actually close to competitive.
Most of them are not.
They're actually just fun, weird
decks for interaction.
It's a fun game. I stopped playing Magic when they introduced
Skywalker? Is that
what they're called? It was like a special
Skywalker?
They would have like super
powerful cards. Planeswalkers?
Planeswalkers. That's what it was.
That's when I stopped playing because those were like the
super imbalanced card, whatever. Yeah, that's what it was. Yeah. That's when I stopped playing, because those were like the super imbalanced card, whatever.
Yeah, that would be to be fun.
Phil Labonte, J.D. Vance, four-player commander game.
That'd be great.
Jason Kaiser says,
When I was deployed, some of us had Beretta M9 pistols.
Would that now be a weapon of war?
Also, love the show, and thank you for all you and your people do.
Read my dumb zombie book
Arctic Cold, please.
Oh, there you go.
Check that out.
I didn't market your book.
There you go.
Also like this
weapons of war argument
is so silly
because handguns
are they weapons of war?
They kill more people
than whatever.
I think for Walt,
especially after Parkland shooting,
he was like,
everything is a weapon of war.
Well, you know the drones
you buy at Best Buy?
Yeah.
Those are weapons of war.
Crazy weapons of war.
It is scary. That's how they're using consumer grade drones to carry bombs. Those are weapons of war. Crazy weapons of war. It is scary.
That's how they're using
consumer-grade drones
to carry bombs.
It's nuts.
Wow.
Yeah, because they're
relatively cheap compared to...
And then they're just
flying grenades.
It's crazy.
Weapons of war.
Heavily regulated.
All right.
George Crozer says,
with all due respect,
based on the use of
Allah Akbar
as a cry that has
preceded attacks,
is the same as screaming Deus Vult, despite 1A, both shut down conversation and lead to violence.
Yeah.
You have a response to that?
I think there's different context that plays into this.
At least in my experience, I haven't seen.
Is it Christians or Catholics that yell Deus Vult?
Deus Vult.
God wills.
Yeah, so in my experience,
I've seen people burn the American flag
and chant Allahu Akbar.
I haven't seen people burn any flags and chant.
I'm sorry, I don't know.
It's compounded with the other content.
If you burn the flag and yell Allahu Akbar,
you don't belong anywhere near this country.
You should be thrown out.
I don't know if there's also a Christian history of beheading people and then yelling that.
Not that I know of.
All right.
Titan Soap says, it's amazing how the VP picks are complete opposites.
Regardless of party affiliation, I will never trust a politician.
Stay clean, people.
It is interesting how they're very opposite.
Mike Anderson says, Waltz gets no respect from
this veteran. He joined the Guard to get his
pay, health care, and pension for two weeks a year
on the gamble that he would not be
needed. Then when he was called, he split.
That is actually a fair point that
I still do
believe there's a degree of respect everybody gets
for enlisting, but yeah, he was
only, you know,
was it two weeks a year?
So many veterans in the audience.
Thank you to all the...
He was a teacher and a coach. He was only
working National Guard periodically.
He wasn't like...
Isn't the term for the weekend warriors
the National Guard thing? That's what they call it.
I have a friend who's in the Guard that I work with
actually, and they go maybe
once every two, three months.
I think they're doing trainings and stuff like that.
But when Wal says, I'm a veteran, I did all this, he's not the veteran that you're thinking.
Yeah, that's what bothers me.
Because I think, I mean, again, I think people who enlist in the military, it's a service to the country.
And I think that's good.
And I would include National Guard in that.
Absolutely.
It's more than I've ever done.
Right.
Me too.
I just think it's different when you're trying to say like you're presenting the timeline of when you were there as if to imply that you deployed to the Middle East or, you know, combat time.
Jerry J. Chapman says Trump didn't come up with tampon Tim.
Bongino did.
I didn't think Trump came up with it.
Did someone say Trump came up with it?
I don't know if Bongino did either.
I think I saw I saw a cat turd do it first.
I don't know. Bongino did either. I think I saw a cat turd do it first.
I don't know.
It's so stupid.
Chronicles of Mexico says, Tim, you have leftist derangement.
Josh didn't get the VP slot.
Is that what you're trying to say?
Because of Ellen Greenberg?
Ellen Greenberg was somebody who allegedly was murdered.
And then Josh Shapiro helped get the murderer off or something.
He ruled it as suicide.
Even though she was stabbed.
She had 20 stab wounds or something.
And Shapiro ruled it as suicide.
I think it was a friend of his.
I suspect there were lots of issues with Shapiro.
And I think there were probably different pressure campaigns.
The thing with Shapiro, he's just a craving for power person. And I think even Kamala saw that and maybe even thought he could overthrow me the way I just overthrew Biden.
Well, when I saw, you know, Waltz and Kamala on stage, I actually think she's very easy to
overshadow. Even on stage, I sort of felt like he was sort of more the star of the show. Now,
he was being presented as VP.
On the other hand, like you don't get that way with with Trump and Vance.
Right.
They're both strong personalities, but it is clear Trump is running for president and J.D. Vance is running for VP.
Trump is a global presence.
That's what people don't understand.
You go all around the world.
People know Trump. Nobody knows Kamala.
And everybody thought Biden was a joke.
People would even ask me,
like in Italy, they'll say,
how in the world did that guy ever get to be president?
He's senile.
Because they're better infrastructure.
Yeah, they just don't get it though.
Trump, they're like,
oh, even the Europeans hate Trump thing.
That's not as true as people like to make it out.
People really like the aura of Trump.
Maybe they think he's crazy,
but they're like, that's Donald Trump.
He's a billionaire.
Well, and he rose to notoriety
internationally in the, what,
90s and 80s,
like when he was sort of this
like wealthy, you know,
man about town.
That is the image
that they're going to carry with them.
Everybody wants to be Donald Trump.
Nobody wants to be Kamala Harris.
All right.
Biden body double says,
I don't think they agree to a debate i think this
is the first year where the results of debates will actually dramatically affect people's opinions
especially since they don't know either of them and then in the end whoever is better at ballot
harvesting wins democrats might be traumatized from that last debate this is why they don't
have any policy positions they don't need. They're just going to ballot harvest. Their whole
strategy is, all we
need to win the presidency is
to get as many pieces of paper with signatures
on them. That's it. Everything
else is nonsense. They don't need to worry about a
policy platform because their policy platform
is anti-Trump. It's just point at Trump,
look at Trump, I'm not that, I'm
the opposite of Trump, that's the campaign.
It is funny how they're campaigning as though Trump
is currently in office.
I'm going to make everything better.
They're saying, Trump does this.
They're like, Trump right now.
Something Walt said was like, Trump keeps
doing things. He's like, Trump keeps trying to block
us, blah, blah, blah. And I was just like,
why is he acting like Trump's president?
She keeps talking about how she's going to fix the economy.
She's going to do all this.
You are the economy lady.
You are the one.
You're the one who's been next to Biden the whole time. If you are such a weak, useless human being that you couldn't stop him from doing bad things to the economy or you couldn't push your economic agenda a little bit with this senile animal in office, what makes think they're gonna do it now she also says there was a
state and i can't remember which one off the top of my head but that recently passed it's um was it
ohio it's it's abortion law it's a you know six week abortion ban and kamala went on stage at a
rally and was like it's a trump abortion ban ma'am it was passed under joe biden like i get you might
say it's a republican one you know know, Republicans in state literature, whatever.
But like Trump's not from that state.
He had nothing to do with this.
He wasn't even in elected office at the time.
They're just trying to blame Trump for everything.
And it does, again, kind of have this idea that he is this all powerful figure that they're very afraid of, which is funny because they're the current government.
Christopher Grover says, Tim, can you make your best case for moving to West Virginia?
My wife and I want to leave Oregon
and escape somewhere more free. P.S.
My wife loves chickens.
I'll start with the easy one.
It's not Oregon. Okay, thank you, and I'll see
you soon. No, but for West
Virginia, it's got its problems.
They recently amended their
tax law. They had really bad business taxes.
You basically had to itemize literally every possible thing your business had, including like chairs.
And it was a ridiculous amount of tedious work to be like, how many folding chairs do we have?
This is so ridiculous.
Well, they say they're fixing that or they may have already fixed it.
But that aside, West Virginia has a smaller population. What this means is if you are trying to do things
in this, it takes remarkably less people to convince, to debate with, for laws to get passed.
It's a lot easier to innovate. Land is a lot cheaper. Where we are in the eastern panhandle,
we are a couple, we're two and a half to three hours from pittsburgh pennsylvania from uh pittsburgh and philadelphia we're like an hour to gettysburg we're uh like 30 minutes to
uh frederick we're an hour to dc we've got uh baltimore and dc international airports
so this is a really great spot and it's mega country mega country uh people out here they
yeah trump flags everywhere and Yeah, Trump flags everywhere.
And the only thing you got to worry about is the wealthy people from the D.C. suburbs and from D.C. move out here to escape the laws that they've helped enact.
How about that?
If I can add one thing, I would say West Virginia as a state is really looking to grow and change.
And I think this is sort of getting on the ground floor level. Like, I don't know if you have children, but the Hope Scholarship in West Virginia is an extremely
impactful school choice initiative. It's one of the best in the country. And shout out to Riley
Moore for that one. He was a huge figure in that. You're also seeing a lot of charter schools pop
up in West Virginia. They're sort of, they're trying to advance as rapidly as possible. So I
think if you're looking to put down roots and be a part of something and you have children,
this is a good place to be.
So where we are now in the new studio, we've got a building that is 40 feet tall at center.
And we've built this entire studio.
We've got around 50 acres.
We've got three buildings.
We may actually have four buildings soon. And if we were to try and get something
comparable near any major city, we'd have, I don't know, a 5,000 square foot house.
The thing I like about West Virginia is it's obviously you get a small state, a small city
vibe, not a small city, but a small town vibe while not being too far removed from what I'd consider,
you know, great big cities.
An hour to D.C.
You're only like four hours away from New York City, like three hours away from Philly.
You're not on the East Coast, but you're not too far either.
So you're still near major airports.
Yeah, it's it's mountainous and easy to defend.
There's a lot of rivers.
Yeah, a lot of rivers.
The reason it's not so heavily settled is because of the mountains so when settlers came to the east coast and were setting up shop they were
like don't go that way too many mountains you can't get the wagons up there you can't get the
the the supplies up there and so very little development happened because the difficulty
well now there's a great opportunity because we have technology. So it is still, it's a very large state.
There's a lot of wilds and it's good fun.
I will tell you this.
The best thing I like about West Virginia is that talking to your local and state level
politician is the easiest it's ever been I've ever seen.
It's not just ridiculously dense city where the phones are off the hook and they have no time for you and they're always in D.C. or those at fancy meetings.
No, it's like the state level reps and politicians represent relatively few people.
And so if you go to them and say, hey, I want to do this thing, but this law, I'm confused.
What does this cover? They'll talk to you. They'll be like, yeah, that sounds great.
And if you're if you have a business and you want to help expand and you come here, West Virginia will accommodate. Most people
are ready for innovation and are, and are willing to allow stuff. And I will also add as a very
deeply a coal mining state, they're very pro energy. And so you don't get a lot of that BS
woke stuff, you know? Yeah, you get it. All right, everybody, if you haven't already, would you
