Again, that's four Patriots 30 00:02:58.120 --> 00:03:05.280 dot com slash huff. So let's talk about this. The results of Super 31 00:03:05.319 --> 00:03:13.879 Tuesday. Super Tuesday was an annihilation Trump blew Nikki Hayley, and we again, 32 00:03:14.919 --> 00:03:17.240 we knew that this would happen, right, we knew. We've talked 33 00:03:17.240 --> 00:03:21.680 about this from the beginning. This is a formality. I mean, it's 34 00:03:21.680 --> 00:03:24.280 not a formal. I don't like that it's not a formality. But we 35 00:03:24.319 --> 00:03:28.520 all know the conclusion. You know, I'm a guy by the way, 36 00:03:28.560 --> 00:03:34.080 that always says in sports, for example, I was the guy growing up 37 00:03:34.120 --> 00:03:39.120 when I was playing I expected to win every game. I never and even 38 00:03:39.240 --> 00:03:47.360 sometimes it makes should maybe chuckle to think who I thought we could beat. 39 00:03:47.439 --> 00:03:53.360 But that was my mentality. But I also had a direct impact on that. 40 00:03:53.479 --> 00:03:58.719 Right I was out there playing, I could do something about it. 41 00:03:58.759 --> 00:04:02.960 I wasn't just someone in stands who couldn't do anything about the game. I 42 00:04:03.120 --> 00:04:06.360 was someone that was on the court. But I always play to win. 43 00:04:06.400 --> 00:04:13.039 And that's the reason you'll hear me say this consistently, especially on matters like 44 00:04:15.960 --> 00:04:19.879 elections. But the reason you play the game is to see who is going 45 00:04:19.959 --> 00:04:25.839 to win, right, And the same holds true not just for sporting events, 46 00:04:26.519 --> 00:04:35.199 but also for elections. The differences the differences elections elections are the results 47 00:04:35.240 --> 00:04:41.839 of opinions of people, and so you can poll you can do polling in 48 00:04:41.920 --> 00:04:47.000 advance. You can look at signs and indicators, looking at the size of 49 00:04:47.199 --> 00:04:54.040 Trump's crowds at speaking events, or the number of Trump signs, or the 50 00:04:54.079 --> 00:04:59.199 size of caravans that are Trump caravans or whatever. Right now, those are 51 00:04:59.279 --> 00:05:02.839 anecdotal. But but those things they can tell you something, right, they 52 00:05:02.879 --> 00:05:11.959 can certainly tell you something. And so we knew that Trump from polling, 53 00:05:12.040 --> 00:05:17.199 from anecdotal evidence, from just human logic and reasoning. To watch a guy 54 00:05:17.920 --> 00:05:26.519 who after leaving office in twenty twenty one, remained immensely popular with his base, 55 00:05:26.759 --> 00:05:34.959 never really lost any of that well popular connection with his audience and so 56 00:05:35.040 --> 00:05:42.000 forth with his base, and you could see this, This was predictable. 57 00:05:42.120 --> 00:05:47.879 This was something that had been brewing for over the past four years, I 58 00:05:47.879 --> 00:05:50.680 guess three years now since he's left office, or you could say all the 59 00:05:50.680 --> 00:05:54.600 way back to when he came down the escalator. I mean, folks are 60 00:05:54.720 --> 00:06:00.920 behind this guy, connected with what he's trying to do. They believe in 61 00:06:00.000 --> 00:06:05.800 him in ways that most that they don't in most politicians, they just don't. 62 00:06:08.040 --> 00:06:12.079 And so some of these numbers, even saying that, some of these 63 00:06:12.120 --> 00:06:14.920 numbers, and I'm gonna talk about this in a couple of different ways here 64 00:06:14.959 --> 00:06:19.199 this morning, as we frame the results of Super Tuesday, and of course 65 00:06:19.639 --> 00:06:26.160 reference Nicki Haley dropping out of the race after being humiliated, which again I 66 00:06:26.199 --> 00:06:30.560 don't take. I don't take any satisfaction in saying that. I'm just trying 67 00:06:30.560 --> 00:06:35.199 to tell you the truth, at least through my perspective, through my lens. 68 00:06:36.120 --> 00:06:42.040 So let's take a look at this really quickly. So Trump won every 69 00:06:43.639 --> 00:06:51.879 state TERRITORYUS minus Vermont on Super Tuesday. Nicki Haley won Vermont by I believe 70 00:06:51.920 --> 00:06:56.199 it's four points. Now, I will tell you that some of these precincts 71 00:06:56.199 --> 00:06:59.519 in some of these states are still not they haven't fully reported, so these 72 00:06:59.560 --> 00:07:02.920 numbers may skew a little bit one way or the other once we see the 73 00:07:02.959 --> 00:07:11.680 final numbers. But that being said, that being said, Nikki Hayley won 74 00:07:12.279 --> 00:07:16.319 Vermont by four points. Now, I want you to listen to the percentage 75 00:07:16.360 --> 00:07:21.800 of Republicans in these other states that voted for Trump. It is astonishing even 76 00:07:21.879 --> 00:07:29.480 saying what I said, even knowing that this this election was setting up to 77 00:07:29.600 --> 00:07:33.480 be a landslide at least the primary and hopefully the general. But at least 78 00:07:33.519 --> 00:07:39.439 the primary is setting up has always been set up for a landslide for Trump. 79 00:07:39.480 --> 00:07:43.920 But I still want you to listen to these numbers because it's it's amazing. 80 00:07:44.680 --> 00:07:49.560 In Alaska. I know it's Alaska, not a huge population wise state, 81 00:07:49.680 --> 00:07:56.040 but Trump won eighty seven point six percent of the vote Alabama, Trump 82 00:07:56.079 --> 00:08:03.079 won eighty three point two percent of the vote, Arkansas seventy six point nine 83 00:08:03.199 --> 00:08:09.560 percent of the vote. California. Look, there are conservatives in California. 84 00:08:09.600 --> 00:08:16.319 There's so many more liberals living along that pretty much that coastal area San Francisco, 85 00:08:18.000 --> 00:08:22.680 Los Angeles in particular, and some of those other big cities that you 86 00:08:22.720 --> 00:08:28.199 know up and down the coast are near the coast of California. But he's 87 00:08:28.279 --> 00:08:35.799 won seventy eight point six percent of the vote in California, Maine seventy two 88 00:08:35.879 --> 00:08:43.279 percent, North Carolina almost seventy four percent, Oklahoma eighty one point eight percent, 89 00:08:43.360 --> 00:08:48.600 Tennessee seventy seven point three percent, Texas seventy seven point nine percent, 90 00:08:48.759 --> 00:08:56.679 Virginia sixty three percent, Minnesota sixty one percent, Massachusetts fifty nine point nine, 91 00:08:56.679 --> 00:09:03.399 Colorado sixty three point three. He was above sixty percent in every state 92 00:09:03.519 --> 00:09:09.720 except for two. One of those states was Utah where Trump only quote only, 93 00:09:09.759 --> 00:09:13.679 won by seventeen points. He received fifty eight point two percent of the 94 00:09:13.720 --> 00:09:16.159 vote in Utah, and then of course he was under fifty percent in Vermont, 95 00:09:16.159 --> 00:09:22.240 where he did actually lose. This was an annihilation of butt kicking in 96 00:09:22.320 --> 00:09:28.799 massive ways. Now that was Super Tuesday. Lots of delegates were awarded on 97 00:09:28.879 --> 00:09:35.240 Super Tuesday. Now, you know, as a follower of politics, as 98 00:09:35.279 --> 00:09:39.960 a listener of this program, you know, you know that what actually determines 99 00:09:41.679 --> 00:09:45.759 the nominee for president of the United States are these things called delegates. And 100 00:09:45.840 --> 00:09:52.639 each state has a certain number of delegates that they award. It depends on 101 00:09:52.679 --> 00:09:56.519 the state. Some are winner take all, some are split based upon other 102 00:09:56.600 --> 00:10:07.639 criteria by county or precinct or congressional district or whatever. So it varies by 103 00:10:07.679 --> 00:10:13.120 state. But delegates. Once someone receives in the Republican Party on two hundred 104 00:10:13.120 --> 00:10:20.240 and fifteen delegates, they have secured the nomination to be the presidential nominee. 105 00:10:20.879 --> 00:10:24.919 And then in the convention, which will be in August, they will officially 106 00:10:26.080 --> 00:10:31.159 vote. The delegates will go in person, have the national convention have some 107 00:10:31.279 --> 00:10:37.080 speakers, which of course will culminate with Trump speaking and talking about his platform, 108 00:10:37.159 --> 00:10:43.039 kind of kicking off the the beginning of the final phase of this process 109 00:10:43.039 --> 00:10:48.480 as we head into the general election. And so those delegates, again, 110 00:10:48.519 --> 00:10:52.240 Trump is looking to get to one thy two hundred and fifteen as of right 111 00:10:52.279 --> 00:11:01.519 now what I've seen current that's been awarded, and there are still delegates that 112 00:11:03.120 --> 00:11:09.039 from Super Tuesday that have not yet been awarded because of calculations, and they're 113 00:11:09.039 --> 00:11:11.960 still waiting on some of these numbers to come in and so forth. Trump 114 00:11:11.000 --> 00:11:16.759 currently has nine hundred and ninety five delegates. Well, we think that he 115 00:11:16.879 --> 00:11:22.399 has at least one thousand and fifty once we once all the dust subtles here. 116 00:11:22.399 --> 00:11:26.759 I don't know exactly where that's going to end up, but somewhere around 117 00:11:26.759 --> 00:11:31.480 one thousand and fifty or a little bit north of that is where Trump's going 118 00:11:31.559 --> 00:11:37.399 to be. He needs only twelve hundred and fifteen. So but let's just 119 00:11:37.480 --> 00:11:41.799 assume he's got the nine to ninety five. We're not gonna speculate even though 120 00:11:41.840 --> 00:11:45.000 it's clear he's going to have probably at least one thousand and fifty. Let's 121 00:11:45.000 --> 00:11:48.000 just assume he's got nine hundred and ninety five, which is where he stands 122 00:11:48.000 --> 00:11:50.639 as of right now, and that means he's currently sitting at about eighty two 123 00:11:50.679 --> 00:11:56.600 percent of the required twelve hundred and fifteen delegates to win the nomination. Nikki 124 00:11:56.639 --> 00:12:01.639 Hayley is in second place with eighty nine delegates, so Trump at nine to 125 00:12:01.679 --> 00:12:07.159 ninety five, Nicky Haley with eighty nine, Rond de Santis has nine delegates. 126 00:12:07.200 --> 00:12:09.840 Of course he's dropped out of the race, and all these folks have. 127 00:12:09.960 --> 00:12:13.679 I'm just painting the picture here of how massive of a victory this is. 128 00:12:13.759 --> 00:12:16.600 And this is in spite of everything they've thrown at him. This is 129 00:12:16.639 --> 00:12:22.279 in spite of the Seinfeld Newman strategy where the left has vowed to do whatever 130 00:12:22.320 --> 00:12:24.519 it takes as long as it takes them, so long as it takes Trump 131 00:12:24.960 --> 00:12:31.240 away from the White House. Vvek Ramaswami has three delegates. So if you 132 00:12:31.360 --> 00:12:37.480 add him up, if you say Trump has the nine hundred and ninety five 133 00:12:37.399 --> 00:12:45.039 and everyone else, Nicki Haley, Ronda Santis, vivek Ramaswami have a combined 134 00:12:45.159 --> 00:12:48.519 combined total of one hundred and one. That means Trump has won ninety point 135 00:12:48.639 --> 00:12:54.360 eight percent of all delegates that have been awarded thus far. That also means 136 00:12:54.480 --> 00:13:01.759 he needs only two hundred and twenty delegates to win the nomination. Nicky Haley 137 00:13:03.000 --> 00:13:07.679 should she Well, I don't know if you saw this. Mary Anne Williamson 138 00:13:07.720 --> 00:13:13.879 on the Democrat Party suspended her campaign and then unsuspended her campaign. I told 139 00:13:13.919 --> 00:13:18.519 Oz, it reminds me of the Office where Dwight was shunning Andy. For 140 00:13:18.559 --> 00:13:22.879 those of you that for those of you that watched the office, he would 141 00:13:22.919 --> 00:13:26.399 tell Andy, you're shunned. And then if Andy asked him a question that 142 00:13:26.440 --> 00:13:31.120 he needed to that Dwight wanted to tell Andy the answer to, he would 143 00:13:31.360 --> 00:13:35.879 temporarily unshut him, give him the answer, and then re shun him. 144 00:13:35.200 --> 00:13:39.080 That's kind of what we're getting with Mary Anne Williamson's campaign. So I suppose 145 00:13:39.159 --> 00:13:41.320 Nicki Haley could do the same. I mean, she's not going to, 146 00:13:41.399 --> 00:13:45.759 but theoretically I guess she could. We've got an example of someone who has 147 00:13:45.799 --> 00:13:48.759 done it. But she needs Nicky Haley would need one and twenty six delegates. 148 00:13:50.919 --> 00:13:54.639 That means she would need eighty four and a half percent of all the 149 00:13:54.679 --> 00:14:00.320 remaining delegates. Trump only needs sixteen and a half percent of the delegates that 150 00:14:00.360 --> 00:14:03.480 are remaining. In some of those that are left from super Tuesday, and 151 00:14:03.519 --> 00:14:13.000 then others are from upcoming primaries and so forth. So this is over and 152 00:14:13.240 --> 00:14:18.840 this is what I shared this for two reasons to illustrate how massive of a 153 00:14:18.919 --> 00:14:24.120 victory this is. I suppose a couple of reasons how massive of a victory 154 00:14:24.120 --> 00:14:28.840 this was for Trump number one? Number two. Number two to show you, 155 00:14:30.320 --> 00:14:35.600 to encourage you to say, in spite of everything going on, Trump 156 00:14:35.679 --> 00:14:39.240 is still able to do this, which is It's truly remarkable, it is. 157 00:14:41.519 --> 00:14:46.200 And number three, these are the things that Nicky Hayley's team sat around 158 00:14:46.360 --> 00:14:56.600 and talked about after being just completely embarrassed on well in the you know, 159 00:14:56.639 --> 00:14:58.919 after Super Tuesday, they sat down and they looked at this and I mean, 160 00:15:00.159 --> 00:15:03.440 she has to win eighty four and a half percent of the delegates to 161 00:15:03.559 --> 00:15:07.399 become the nominee. Now we knew this before, not the specific numbers, 162 00:15:07.399 --> 00:15:11.080 but we knew that she was going to get her you know, she was 163 00:15:11.120 --> 00:15:13.240 going to get thumped, is what she was going to get, and she 164 00:15:13.360 --> 00:15:18.960 did. So we knew that they wanted to play this out for whatever reason. 165 00:15:18.039 --> 00:15:22.519 Right, they had the money, why not maybe you know, the 166 00:15:22.519 --> 00:15:26.039 more that you draw this campaign out and you're not out of the race, 167 00:15:26.919 --> 00:15:31.240 there's always a chance. Telling me there's a chance, one in a million 168 00:15:31.360 --> 00:15:35.240 chance, one in a billion chance, I don't know, but some really 169 00:15:35.279 --> 00:15:41.600 really infinitesimally small number, that's a chance that she could win. But now 170 00:15:41.960 --> 00:15:46.039 now this is reality, right, These are no longer projections, This is 171 00:15:46.080 --> 00:15:50.919 no longer what people think is going to happen. This is now the cold 172 00:15:50.960 --> 00:15:56.600 hard truth, the cold hard reality. So she looks at the delegate count 173 00:15:56.600 --> 00:16:02.240 here and it's clear she has to win nearly eighty five percent to win the 174 00:16:02.279 --> 00:16:07.799 nomination. That's not going to happen. And even the people that have so 175 00:16:07.919 --> 00:16:11.159 much money in their pockets they don't know what to do with who are throwing 176 00:16:11.279 --> 00:16:12.799 money at her campaign, which more power to them, by the way, 177 00:16:12.799 --> 00:16:17.240 I'm not against I mean, that's their prerogative, their money. I'm not 178 00:16:17.279 --> 00:16:22.440 saying that. But it's gotten to the point to where they just can't justify 179 00:16:22.480 --> 00:16:26.200 it. There's no path for her to win. This is crazy talk. 180 00:16:26.279 --> 00:16:32.679 I mean, it would have to it would have to completely flip on its 181 00:16:32.720 --> 00:16:36.720 head, and she would have to start beating Trump as badly as Trump is 182 00:16:36.759 --> 00:16:41.720 beating her and everyone else combined. It's just it's not logical to think that 183 00:16:41.720 --> 00:16:45.039 that's going to happen, and it hasn't been. I get all that, 184 00:16:45.120 --> 00:16:48.720 but now they've got the numbers, they've got the data, they've been able 185 00:16:48.720 --> 00:16:53.200 to analyze it, and it's no longer speculation. It is reality. So 186 00:16:53.279 --> 00:16:57.120 Trump, my friends, is the nominee. Biden, of course, same 187 00:16:57.159 --> 00:17:00.759 sort of thing is happening over there. Although I will tell you one of 188 00:17:00.799 --> 00:17:03.519 my favorite I told Oz this is one of my favorite headlines. I've seen. 189 00:17:03.559 --> 00:17:07.480 This here is fantastic, and I've got to take a break in a 190 00:17:07.480 --> 00:17:12.680 second. But Biden. Did you know Biden lost on Super Tuesday in one 191 00:17:12.759 --> 00:17:19.359 spot as well? Biden lost in American Samoa. That's right, Biden loses. 192 00:17:19.400 --> 00:17:25.440 This is the postmillennial dot com. Biden loses American Samoa to long shot 193 00:17:25.559 --> 00:17:33.440 candidate Jason Palmer. Now, Jason Palmer had been actually campaigning out there, 194 00:17:33.759 --> 00:17:40.799 but he beat Biden in American Samoa. He's qualified, by the way, 195 00:17:40.839 --> 00:17:45.279 to only be on the ballot in sixteen states, and that's according to his 196 00:17:45.319 --> 00:17:51.359 own campaign's press release. But nonetheless, Biden loses in American Samoa. But 197 00:17:52.519 --> 00:17:59.359 that aside, that anomaly aside, we're faced with the reality that we've got 198 00:17:59.400 --> 00:18:07.880 a Biden Trump rematch from twenty twenty. I mean, this is unavoidable. 199 00:18:07.920 --> 00:18:12.240 There are some again, some wildcards we can get to after the break here, 200 00:18:12.279 --> 00:18:15.960 but that is what this is set up to be. Like it or 201 00:18:17.000 --> 00:18:21.519 not, That's what's gonna happen here. That's what we're moving towards. There's 202 00:18:21.559 --> 00:18:26.200 a few, again, a few potential possibilities that could change that, but 203 00:18:26.319 --> 00:18:32.039 these are would be very very extreme, exact examples of something that would have 204 00:18:32.119 --> 00:18:33.960 to happen. So that being said, I'm taking a break, quick time 205 00:18:34.000 --> 00:18:37.279 out here is in order, my friends, Sit tight. You're listening to 206 00:18:37.359 --> 00:18:40.000 conservative not better talk. I'm your host, the one, the only, 207 00:18:40.039 --> 00:18:55.440 the beloved tad Uh back here in just a minute. Welcome back, my 208 00:18:55.720 --> 00:19:02.960 friends. So what are some of the potential hurdles, obstacles, what have 209 00:19:03.039 --> 00:19:10.319 you that could impact the inevitable here, which is there is going to be 210 00:19:10.960 --> 00:19:21.640 barring some sort of incredibly bizarre, unpredictable well I would say somewhat unpredictable, 211 00:19:22.119 --> 00:19:29.759 potentially predictable, but just unheard of events that would prevent a Biden Trump rematch. 212 00:19:29.839 --> 00:19:33.640 Well, of course, the first is something that I wrote about in 213 00:19:33.640 --> 00:19:40.960 this week's column, which is that someone else is going to be the nominee 214 00:19:41.279 --> 00:19:48.839 for the Democrat Party. That's the first possibility, that is a possibility. 215 00:19:48.920 --> 00:19:56.160 Some of you think that that's definitely going to happen, and it could happen. 216 00:19:57.599 --> 00:20:04.480 But again, a lot of I think, and I know that this 217 00:20:04.599 --> 00:20:12.559 doesn't necessarily compute for people that live in reality. And so I'm with you 218 00:20:12.599 --> 00:20:18.680 on that because we look at Biden as a candidate and we think, why 219 00:20:18.720 --> 00:20:22.079 would they There's no way he's the best candidate, right, I mean, 220 00:20:22.119 --> 00:20:27.240 this guy is I mean, again, I take no pleasure saying this, 221 00:20:27.359 --> 00:20:33.240 but he's He's incoherent, He's clueless a lot as to what's going on. 222 00:20:33.000 --> 00:20:38.319 His policies have wreaked havoc upon the American people. The American people know this. 223 00:20:40.480 --> 00:20:47.359 He's created a wide open border to our south. Heck, he's created 224 00:20:47.359 --> 00:20:52.400 a wide open border to our north. People coming across the border from Canada 225 00:20:52.920 --> 00:20:59.759 have never that. Those numbers have never been higher, at least in modern 226 00:20:59.759 --> 00:21:03.920 time. The numbers that I've seen, it's dramatically higher than when it had 227 00:21:03.960 --> 00:21:11.599 been. Inflation has been has burned out of control in this country for a 228 00:21:11.640 --> 00:21:15.920 while. It's still higher than they want you to believe. They want you 229 00:21:15.960 --> 00:21:19.440 to believe it's back to back to normal. But the thing is, when 230 00:21:19.839 --> 00:21:25.599 when inflation is not shrinking, it's still growing, right, we still have 231 00:21:25.680 --> 00:21:30.240 an inflation rate that's higher than zero. So we're not making we're not getting 232 00:21:30.279 --> 00:21:38.400 back to what the numbers were before inflation ran rampant. And of course there's 233 00:21:38.960 --> 00:21:42.839 problems with having a negative inflation rate too. I don't want to get into 234 00:21:42.839 --> 00:21:45.680 all that. I'm just saying that people are feeling it. It's unavoidable. 235 00:21:47.160 --> 00:21:52.839 There's nothing about this candidate to like, and to think that he's the best 236 00:21:52.880 --> 00:22:00.640 candidate is mind bottling. But you start going through you know there's not If 237 00:22:00.680 --> 00:22:07.200 you go back to Obama's Hope and Change campaign, I think that was a 238 00:22:07.279 --> 00:22:11.920 brilliant campaign. I think it was deceptive and deceivil, but the outcome, 239 00:22:12.000 --> 00:22:19.200 the impact that it had was remarkable because hope and change is just very ambiguous, 240 00:22:19.240 --> 00:22:25.039 and it could almost be whatever you hope and change for, whatever you 241 00:22:25.079 --> 00:22:29.200 want to see have hope in and whatever you want to see changed. That 242 00:22:29.279 --> 00:22:33.799 could become the vehicle for you to think, oh wow, even if what 243 00:22:33.960 --> 00:22:40.240 you personally wanted to see change was the opposite of what Obama was going to 244 00:22:40.240 --> 00:22:44.440 do to change things. It still felt right to a lot of people. 245 00:22:44.440 --> 00:22:45.880 It didn't to me. It didn't to those of us that pay attention and 246 00:22:45.960 --> 00:22:51.480 understand politics and messaging and slogans and all that sort of stuff. But it 247 00:22:51.519 --> 00:22:57.880 was effective. It was effective with people. And so I'm reminded a little 248 00:22:57.880 --> 00:23:02.519 bit of that as I think about this, because you know that there's a 249 00:23:02.599 --> 00:23:10.200 reality aspect to having you know, just like buy Obama picked the Hope and 250 00:23:10.279 --> 00:23:14.359 Change, his campaign team came up with that, that that campaign, that 251 00:23:14.440 --> 00:23:21.799 message, that slogan. There's the the idea, the idea of some mythical 252 00:23:22.400 --> 00:23:26.599 candidate coming in. That's everything that you want, right just like with the 253 00:23:26.640 --> 00:23:32.720 Obama's Hoping change or excuse me, hoping hope and change campaign, that was 254 00:23:32.759 --> 00:23:37.079 effective because they could use the imagination. But we don't have that. You 255 00:23:37.119 --> 00:23:42.279 don't have the opportunity to have someone use their imagination when picking a candidate. 256 00:23:42.960 --> 00:23:48.000 You can have them use their imagination to fill in the blanks on what they 257 00:23:48.079 --> 00:23:51.000 think you're going to do as president, but there's supposed to be a real 258 00:23:51.039 --> 00:23:55.920 person that we vote for, and so you have to start going through the 259 00:23:56.000 --> 00:23:59.119 names of those people. And we've done that you've done that, and you 260 00:23:59.160 --> 00:24:03.200 start going down the list. You go down the list of Kamala Harris. 261 00:24:03.240 --> 00:24:07.759 She's arguably one of the most unlikable politicians. I don't think arguably, I 262 00:24:07.759 --> 00:24:12.559 think demonstrably one of the most unlikable politicians that there is. I mean, 263 00:24:12.599 --> 00:24:18.240 she gives Hillary Clinton a run for her money. I mean, you go 264 00:24:18.319 --> 00:24:22.640 down Bernie Sanders, He's only a Democrat every four years. When it's time 265 00:24:22.680 --> 00:24:27.599 to have a presidential nominee. You keep going down the list. Pete boot 266 00:24:27.720 --> 00:24:33.839 Edge Edge I mean mayor Pete was I mean the Newness War off of that 267 00:24:34.759 --> 00:24:41.920 and listening to him and watching him run the Department of Transportation, We've seen 268 00:24:42.000 --> 00:24:45.920 some massive problems there. I mean Amy Klobuchar won. A lot of people 269 00:24:47.000 --> 00:24:52.880 are saying, who is that Elizabeth Warren Pocahontas, which I can say because 270 00:24:52.960 --> 00:25:00.799 yes, Pocahontas is my thirteenth great grandmother, proven by genealogy, and I'm 271 00:25:00.839 --> 00:25:04.920 the official self appointed spokesperson for the family, so we can call our Pocahontas. 272 00:25:06.359 --> 00:25:08.799 She's not an appealing figure, she's polarizing. You start going like, 273 00:25:08.880 --> 00:25:15.200 who's left. People say Gavin Newsom. Gavin Newsom's the governor of a state 274 00:25:15.319 --> 00:25:18.440 that is in disarray. I mean, you ask a lot of people what 275 00:25:18.519 --> 00:25:22.160 state is the craziest in the United States, They're going to say California, 276 00:25:22.480 --> 00:25:26.920 and they're probably going to be right in a lot of ways. And to 277 00:25:27.039 --> 00:25:33.519 think that that individual can have broad appeal to people who are, you know, 278 00:25:33.599 --> 00:25:38.720 in states that Democrats have to win, like Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, 279 00:25:38.799 --> 00:25:45.160 I don't know. Can he connect he was exposed by Desantus during their 280 00:25:45.200 --> 00:25:49.839 debates. I mean, there's a lot of problems, a ton of problems. 281 00:25:49.880 --> 00:25:52.559 There's poop on the streets in San Francisco, my friends. There was 282 00:25:52.599 --> 00:26:00.720 an app created to show you where the extrement was on the streets San Francisco. 283 00:26:00.920 --> 00:26:03.400 Now, I don't want to say that all that is the responsibility of 284 00:26:03.440 --> 00:26:07.599 the governor. I mean there's mayors, local control and everything, but it 285 00:26:07.680 --> 00:26:15.200 is it is the state. It's a byproduct of the craziness that has come 286 00:26:15.200 --> 00:26:18.519 from that state. And is that going to appeal to the average Democrat voter. 287 00:26:18.960 --> 00:26:22.680 I mean, I don't know. And these are conversations that are being 288 00:26:22.759 --> 00:26:27.680 had and I'm telling you they knew that. We have to remember, they 289 00:26:27.759 --> 00:26:33.880 knew the Democrat power brokers in twenty twenty when they chose Biden to be their 290 00:26:33.920 --> 00:26:37.680 nominee, and they asked everyone else, effectively to drop out of the race 291 00:26:37.720 --> 00:26:44.240 so that Biden could go up against Bernie and not have a contested convention. 292 00:26:45.200 --> 00:26:48.799 In twenty twenty, they made the decision to pick Biden, and they knew, 293 00:26:49.000 --> 00:26:53.359 they knew of the things that we are seeing today. I can't overemphasize 294 00:26:53.400 --> 00:27:00.920 that or stress that enough. They knew he had ment fitness problems, they 295 00:27:02.000 --> 00:27:07.160 knew he had legitimate health issues. They knew these things. They knew probably 296 00:27:07.200 --> 00:27:12.960 about Hunter Biden and the laptop and all the stuff that was we've learned since 297 00:27:14.000 --> 00:27:19.400 then regarding potential excuse me, pay to play scandals and so forth. They 298 00:27:19.480 --> 00:27:25.480 knew all of that, and yet they still picked him four years ago. 299 00:27:26.599 --> 00:27:32.359 So but they can still try to pick someone else, and at the convention, 300 00:27:32.599 --> 00:27:36.359 Doctor Jill can go up on stage and say, look, it's with 301 00:27:36.519 --> 00:27:41.359 much sadness and regret that I have to inform you that Joe is no longer 302 00:27:41.759 --> 00:27:45.599 able to run for president, and then they throw their support behind someone else. 303 00:27:45.599 --> 00:27:49.240 But who else is it? So a Michelle Obama, as many people 304 00:27:49.279 --> 00:27:53.960 want, She's out there emphatically. Her office is emphatically denying that she wants 305 00:27:55.000 --> 00:27:59.200 anything to do with this whatsoever. She's consistently said that maybe she's lying. 306 00:27:59.279 --> 00:28:02.839 I don't know, Oprah Winfrey. I mean, you got to go to 307 00:28:02.880 --> 00:28:08.640 someone like that that's got, again the superficial appeal. Just someone who's nice 308 00:28:10.039 --> 00:28:18.160 or likable or has a personality that can connect with people superficial politics. I 309 00:28:18.200 --> 00:28:21.160 just don't know who the person is, my friends. So that's an option. 310 00:28:21.200 --> 00:28:22.559 There's a couple of other options that we'll talk about here on the other 311 00:28:22.599 --> 00:28:25.880 side of the break, but I have to take a time out some time. 312 00:28:25.960 --> 00:28:41.240 My friends back in just a minute. Welcome back, my friends. 313 00:28:41.640 --> 00:28:49.240 So I'm going to talk about some of these other reasons, right, not 314 00:28:49.359 --> 00:28:55.599 reasons, but other outcomes that the left is hoping for as kind of a 315 00:28:55.680 --> 00:29:02.880 last ditch effort to prevent a Trump nomination from the Republican Party for president of 316 00:29:02.920 --> 00:29:03.759 the United States. But before we do that, let me tell you a 317 00:29:03.799 --> 00:29:10.960 little bit about one of our newest advertisers and sponsors, Nick Knack Naturals. 318 00:29:11.000 --> 00:29:15.839 You know, I've shared stories on this program about my grandfather. He passed 319 00:29:15.880 --> 00:29:22.799 away several years ago, and I remember a story my mom had relayed to 320 00:29:22.880 --> 00:29:26.519 him. My grandfather had smoked, and my grandpa grew up in the era 321 00:29:27.200 --> 00:29:33.920 where smoking well, he was born in I think thirty five, so he 322 00:29:33.920 --> 00:29:40.119 would buy I think cigarettes and cigars for his grandmother. I remember this. 323 00:29:41.640 --> 00:29:47.880 And he started smoking at a young age and he smoked a big chunk of 324 00:29:47.920 --> 00:29:52.480 his life. And when he stopped, he told my mom, he said, 325 00:29:52.480 --> 00:29:56.359 you know, the urge for that, the urge for the nicotine never 326 00:29:56.400 --> 00:30:03.400 really went away, never left him, and he was able to to stop 327 00:30:03.480 --> 00:30:08.960 cold turkey. So for those of you who have that urge, for those 328 00:30:08.960 --> 00:30:17.160 of you that use tobacco products, for those of you who have that need 329 00:30:17.720 --> 00:30:26.839 for the nicotine, have you considered have you considered nicotine lozenges? Knickknack Naturals 330 00:30:26.880 --> 00:30:34.839 provides that they're an entirely natural and clean product and it is as discreet as 331 00:30:34.880 --> 00:30:41.559 a breath mint. It is free of artificial sweeteners, flavors, fillers, 332 00:30:41.599 --> 00:30:48.200 and colors. It can be used anywhere without the stigma without if you're smoking, 333 00:30:48.240 --> 00:30:52.599 and then you know cigarette smoke smell on you and that sort of stuff, 334 00:30:52.160 --> 00:31:00.359 you can avoid avoid those things by by using a product that come with 335 00:31:00.200 --> 00:31:06.319 a lot less well, a lot less of the negative side effects. Now 336 00:31:06.400 --> 00:31:10.039 this is again for people who are struggling with tobacco products. It's also for 337 00:31:10.119 --> 00:31:15.599 people that are twenty one or older. But check out Nick Knack Naturals if 338 00:31:15.680 --> 00:31:23.160 you're struggling with that. If you're looking to crush your vice, consider Nick 339 00:31:23.319 --> 00:31:30.359 Knack Naturals. So let's talk a little bit here about some of the Now 340 00:31:30.440 --> 00:31:36.039 that we've seen what's happened in the primary for the Republican Party. There's everyone's 341 00:31:36.119 --> 00:31:41.559 dropped out. It's Trump, He's ninety what is it, eighty percent, 342 00:31:41.559 --> 00:31:45.480 eighty two percent? I think it was of the way towards securing enough delegates 343 00:31:47.200 --> 00:31:52.960 to win the nomination, So no one else is close. He only needs 344 00:31:52.960 --> 00:31:56.960 two hundred and twenty and he's actually going to be closer to that. He's 345 00:31:56.960 --> 00:32:00.240 probably going to be about one hundred and sixty five or so away once all 346 00:32:00.279 --> 00:32:05.640 the dust subtles from Super Tuesday and all the delegates are are awarded. Now 347 00:32:05.839 --> 00:32:08.400 we can go back to the strategy of the left all along, which again, 348 00:32:08.480 --> 00:32:14.640 as I've stated, is the Seinfeld Newman strategy. They are going to 349 00:32:14.640 --> 00:32:16.400 do whatever it takes as long as it takes them. So long as it 350 00:32:16.440 --> 00:32:22.599 takes Trump away from sixteen hundred Pennsylvania Avenue the White House. And so this 351 00:32:22.680 --> 00:32:25.799 is where it becomes clear. You know, you look at the case in 352 00:32:25.799 --> 00:32:30.680 New York where he had the three hundred and fifty five million dollar judgment against 353 00:32:30.759 --> 00:32:34.319 him. They want to cripple him financially if they can. They want to. 354 00:32:35.119 --> 00:32:37.920 They want to be a bird in his boot. They want to be 355 00:32:38.640 --> 00:32:43.599 a thorn in his side. They want to well, they'd be happy to 356 00:32:43.640 --> 00:32:47.640 have him arrested and thrown in the clink. Whatever it takes, my friends 357 00:32:47.680 --> 00:32:52.000 to keep him out of the White House. They there really is nothing that 358 00:32:52.000 --> 00:32:55.440 they won't do. And so that's where these other things really come into focus, 359 00:32:55.480 --> 00:33:02.200 the criminal trials and the the other actions being taken to prevent him from 360 00:33:02.240 --> 00:33:06.240 being on the ballot. I mean, they're running out of options here because 361 00:33:06.240 --> 00:33:09.079 the Supreme Court ruled, as we talked about yesterday, that Trump can be 362 00:33:09.240 --> 00:33:14.720 on that ballot and that no state can stop him from being there. So 363 00:33:15.039 --> 00:33:17.359 Congress, as I alluded to at the very end of the program yesterday, 364 00:33:17.640 --> 00:33:23.519 Jamie Raskin, Democrat from Maryland, he's going to try to come up with 365 00:33:23.799 --> 00:33:30.839 legislation that would declare January sixth an insurrection, and then they can somehow say 366 00:33:30.839 --> 00:33:37.240 that Trump is an insurrectionist, which then would tie him back directly to, 367 00:33:37.759 --> 00:33:44.759 you know, to the fourteenth Amendment to where anyone who's engaged in insurrection cannot 368 00:33:44.839 --> 00:33:46.200 run. I don't know what the supremeor I don't know if that would go 369 00:33:46.200 --> 00:33:50.200 back to the Supreme Court. But these are things they're trying. Everything is 370 00:33:50.240 --> 00:33:54.960 the point, because the last thing they want is it for it to be 371 00:33:55.000 --> 00:34:00.240 a one on one matchup. Right. Imagine if you're a fan of the 372 00:34:00.359 --> 00:34:02.640 NBA, and maybe you're not, maybe you hate the NBA. I don't 373 00:34:02.680 --> 00:34:07.480 know. I've been following the Pacers. There's years I follow them closely. 374 00:34:07.360 --> 00:34:13.119 There's years I can barely stand to watch it. But in the closing minutes 375 00:34:13.159 --> 00:34:15.639 of a ball game, the closing seconds of a game, you know, 376 00:34:15.679 --> 00:34:20.920 you have your your go to players, right, you have your Kobe Bryant 377 00:34:21.039 --> 00:34:25.559 or Michael Jordan's, your Kevin Durant, whoever it is today and today's game. 378 00:34:27.440 --> 00:34:29.760 But you've had this threat history. There's a person that's getting the ball 379 00:34:29.800 --> 00:34:32.280 and there's a person that's guarding them. Right, there's a there are these 380 00:34:32.320 --> 00:34:39.360 one on one matchups, especially amongst the superstars that you know, the offensive 381 00:34:39.360 --> 00:34:43.880 players got to make the shot, the defensive players got to challenge, keep 382 00:34:43.920 --> 00:34:47.239 them from getting to their spot whatever, right, make the shot as hard 383 00:34:47.280 --> 00:34:52.960 as possible on them. And so do you think that the left, the 384 00:34:52.039 --> 00:34:57.480 Democrat party really wants that. I'm picturing Biden. Biden would have a headband 385 00:34:57.559 --> 00:35:00.360 on, probably some goggles. You have to tell him on the way out 386 00:35:00.360 --> 00:35:05.280 to the court if it's offense or defense. Probably explain what offense and kind 387 00:35:05.320 --> 00:35:07.039 of what I had to do to the fourth grade girls team. Offense is 388 00:35:07.039 --> 00:35:10.760 when we have the ball. Defense is when we don't all that sort of 389 00:35:10.760 --> 00:35:15.800 stuff. But can you imagine Trump out there calling for the ball on the 390 00:35:15.880 --> 00:35:20.320 high posts on the elbow or something, and then squaring up with Biden, 391 00:35:20.800 --> 00:35:24.760 and they've got isolation, right. They moved the other four players out of 392 00:35:24.800 --> 00:35:30.199 the lane, out around the three point line, they spot up in case 393 00:35:30.639 --> 00:35:34.079 when Trump drives to the basket, he can kick it out to one of 394 00:35:34.119 --> 00:35:37.320 the players on the wing, or on the baseline or wherever. Do you 395 00:35:37.320 --> 00:35:42.119 think that they want that? There's no one else there right there, it 396 00:35:42.159 --> 00:35:45.519 is Biden and Trump. It's going to be unless one of these crazy things 397 00:35:45.519 --> 00:35:50.440 happens, Trump's you know, goes to prison, which again I'm not saying 398 00:35:50.519 --> 00:35:53.920 is I'm just saying it's gonna take We're now at that point officially we knew 399 00:35:54.559 --> 00:35:59.800 that this sort of thing was almost inevitable. Now we can see the riding 400 00:35:59.800 --> 00:36:01.920 on the wall. It's the only thing that's going to stop this now is 401 00:36:01.960 --> 00:36:07.519 something as dramatic as that, something like Trump going to prison or you know, 402 00:36:07.599 --> 00:36:13.559 Biden dropping out and someone replacing him, something I mean, largely unheard 403 00:36:13.599 --> 00:36:19.639 of, very very unlikely scenario when looked at in the total scope of American 404 00:36:19.719 --> 00:36:22.840 history. They don't want that one on one match up because a one on 405 00:36:22.840 --> 00:36:28.480 one matchup in politics means there's a debate stage and there's Trump with at the 406 00:36:28.519 --> 00:36:35.599 podium and Biden at the podium. You talk about ultimate just unveiling what's really 407 00:36:35.639 --> 00:36:37.559 going on behind the curtain in this administration. That's when this is going to 408 00:36:37.599 --> 00:36:42.000 happen. And there's no coming back from that. I don't know if there's 409 00:36:42.000 --> 00:36:45.159 any coming back from it where they are today, but that's what they want 410 00:36:45.199 --> 00:36:47.960 to avoid at all costs. I want to avoid these breaks, my friends, 411 00:36:47.960 --> 00:36:51.519 but I just can't. Got to pay the bills. Quick time out 412 00:36:51.559 --> 00:37:04.800 back here in just a minute. Welcome back, my friends. So those 413 00:37:04.840 --> 00:37:08.079 are the things, those are the things that the left is now hoping for, 414 00:37:08.119 --> 00:37:10.599 and it's why they're in meltdownlode. I don't know if you've watched any 415 00:37:10.599 --> 00:37:16.760 of this post Super Tuesday coverage, or even the night of Super Tuesday, 416 00:37:16.800 --> 00:37:20.480 if you watched any of that, if you listen to any of the clips, 417 00:37:20.519 --> 00:37:22.000 I've got some stuff in the stack of stuff today if you want to 418 00:37:22.000 --> 00:37:25.519 see some of that. If you've not, I don't have time to play 419 00:37:25.559 --> 00:37:35.039 it here today. But we've got Jinsaki out there. She's making fun of 420 00:37:35.280 --> 00:37:42.400 voters in Virginia because the number one issue for Republicans in Virginia was border security. 421 00:37:42.800 --> 00:37:46.599 She laughingly said, there's nowhere, you know, They're nowhere near the 422 00:37:46.639 --> 00:37:51.199 southern border, and Rachel Maddow chimes in and said, well, they share 423 00:37:51.199 --> 00:37:57.119 a border with West Virginia, to which the arrogant elitists began to chuckle condescendingly 424 00:37:57.199 --> 00:38:01.079 at people in West Virginia. But nonetheless, nonetheless, this is their response 425 00:38:02.760 --> 00:38:06.800 to mock, to make fun of, to try to I mean, there's 426 00:38:06.800 --> 00:38:09.519 some anger in there too. Joy Reid I've got a SoundBite from her that's 427 00:38:09.800 --> 00:38:15.199 in the stack of stuff that she's angry. She doesn't understand it at all, 428 00:38:15.760 --> 00:38:17.880 or at least she's wanting you to think that. But anyway, I'm 429 00:38:17.920 --> 00:38:22.199 just out of time, can't get to that that is on the stack of 430 00:38:22.239 --> 00:38:24.400 stuff. The show notes, well, the stack of stuff for today March 431 00:38:24.599 --> 00:38:29.320 seventh, twenty twenty four. But I've got to wrap up here and take 432 00:38:29.360 --> 00:38:40.440 a break. My friends, sit tight back in a minute. So, 433 00:38:40.639 --> 00:38:46.079 my friends, the stage is effectively set. And again, we knew this. 434 00:38:46.599 --> 00:38:51.159 You knew this. I knew this. This was where this was heading. 435 00:38:51.199 --> 00:38:53.639 Again, unless something really bizarre happens, which she kind of touched on 436 00:38:53.679 --> 00:39:00.000 here in the latter part of the program, Be prepared, Be prepared. 437 00:39:00.280 --> 00:39:05.760 This is why, by the way, this is why I've mentioned this all 438 00:39:05.800 --> 00:39:08.440 along. I go back in my memory bank and remember in twenty sixteen people 439 00:39:08.440 --> 00:39:13.239 telling me Todd, I just can't wait for things to go back to normal 440 00:39:13.280 --> 00:39:16.599 after this election. Folks, this is the new normal. It will be 441 00:39:16.800 --> 00:39:21.440 intense. It's because there is so much at stake, and they fear Donald 442 00:39:21.480 --> 00:39:25.159 Trump so much. He's the antithesis of what they want in office. And 443 00:39:25.199 --> 00:39:28.639 it's why we've got to fight with all we've got to get in there, 444 00:39:28.679 --> 00:39:30.079 but I've got to go. SDG
