get quote unquote jacked up, wants a drug test, and oh man,
can't wait till Thursday. Glad you're here. We have some very specific questions
for you that you've probably not heard asked anywhere else or even pondered. And
we'll start with this one. I'll get to a couple of text responds.
A lot going on right here in Denver I want to cover with you as
well, including a message that went to a lot of people working downtown reportedly
today in downtown Denver. Get your reaction to that. But here's the thing.
I don't think we're going to see this, but if we have one
of these moments on Thursday night where Biden freezes up as we've seen recently in
public, and Ors starts to the baby talk gibbers yaba daba do gabba gaba
kind of stuff, what should President Trump do? Should he press his advantage
understanding his mic will be muted at the time, but he's still standing just
feet away from Biden, so Biden could hear him, and you know,
the audience would hear something if that happens. Does Trump have an obligation to
the American people to stress test Biden in that situation to see if he's capable
of serving as president? I think it's clear he's not. But should Trump
say something along the lines of, you know, see Jasey, Dana,
this is what I'm talking about. It's not personal, no, no offense
intended, but this man's not physically and mentally capable of being president. Should
he stress test Biden that way real time? Because when we've seen these other
sad moments where Biden's going through this, Biden's been in a protected bubble.
I'm not talking about being cruel at all. I'm talking about does Trump have
that obligation to the American people? Should he do that? Or we have
textures and I imagine this this is probably the majority, like the ninety eight
percent majority of you, Dan, Trump wins with compassion first time? Are
you okay? Ensuing times? Should we continue? Jake that from VC?
Dan like that? Dan say nothing at all, Say nothing, then it's
all about Joe. Trump should say nothing that will give the left something to
attack, just let it soak in. That from daw Dan, should Biden
start babbling? I believe Trump's effective response would be when they turn his mic
on, merely look over at Biden, look back at the camera with the
Rye look and pause and say nothing. That from Michael Dan says a text
to Da n five seven seven three nine. What if Biden freezes and Trump's
help Biden sit down or get his thoughts straight. Trump could say it's not
right to put Biden through the debate, Dan, when he has that moment,
state, ladies and gentlemen, this is what the world and our enemies
are seeing around the world. Do you not see the embarrassment and danger in
this? Dan? Trump simply needs to say. I can't respond to that.
I couldn't understand what he said. Mike in Henderson, Dan, no
way should Trump distract away from Biden's blunders. That from Patty Ryan, it
appears to be unanimous, and I would agree. I would agree. I
think the question needs to be posed because I think you can make a legitimate
argument in favor of stress testing in real time. I think that Trump should
not do that for two different reasons. One is, you know, politically
it's so important that he win. There's too much risk of backfire in that.
And given you know Trump's out their personality in the past, it could
look like just cruelty for cruelty's sake. You know, maybe a Reagan could
get away with that or somebody like that. But no, I am firmly
with our texters and I agree that that should be the approach. If that
happens again, I don't think it's going to happen because historically they've been able
to get Biden much better expected on occasion they're gonna jack them in and they've
rested him up for seventy Ay, I would bet there's some I'm not suggesting
anything illegal or improper, but I would bet there's some kind of medicinal involvement
here, vitamin B twelve at or all, I mean, all legal compounds.
But yeah, they're gonna he's his pupils will be dilated. I would
bet money on that. I think you might be able to get a Vegas
prop bet on that. But I think overall the theme of the night,
if I'm sitting down with DJT and trying to advise him less is more.
He doesn't really have to do anything. Biden needs to lose this debate.
I don't think it's incumbent upon Trump to win it, to have to go
aggressive, to play a lot of offense. He's got a record. Just
defer to that point at Joe Biden, compare the four years were you better
off under me or under him? That's it. And then if he happens
to stumble and bumble, which I still think he will, just contrast that
with your own vision and clear speaking and say, yeah, and you made
this point very well, Dan, like this is what the rest of the
world's looking at and why we are weak. Yeah, and make that point.
Yeah. And I think what's important to keep in mind is that Biden
is irrelevant to Thursday Night. Unless he is one of those very sad total
freeze ups, then it's all about Biden because he's just done sooner than he
otherwise would be. But other than that, he's irrelevant. He's a stage
prop on Thursday Night. This is about people sizing up whether Trump still has
it, whether Trump's still sharp enough, whether Trump has self control. This
is about people sizing up Trump, because everybody knows they lived it. They
don't need commercials to tell him. They know the nation was better under Trump,
Their life was better under Trump. They know that already. So Thursday
Night is all about sizing up Trump. So true. And a further point
along those lines, Dan, who is Donald Trump speaking to him in this
debate? It's not his base, and it's not the far left that hates
him. It's that narrow middle, that sliver. Maybe they were Trump voters
in twenty sixteen, they voted for Biden and twenty they have Biden remorse,
or those center left people who are absolutely sick of Biden and the far left
agenda, and they want to give Trump a chance. But he's got to
give them a reason. And the reason would be I feel okay with Donald
Trump in charge. He's not a maniac, he's not a wild man.
I feel safe and secure, and I would like that back. He's got
to make that case. Wait, we all know who he's talking to Thursday
night, which is why this is the election, Because he's talking to a
bunch of people who don't like him, want to vote for him anyway out
of self interest, but they need to make sure he isn't nuts. Correct.
That's what Thursday Night is all about, talking to the people who are
trying to figure out if you're nuts. Now. I know he's not nuts.
You know he's not nuts, But we pay attention to this stuff all
the time. Do you got a lot of really good people out there with
really busy lives who hate this stuff and they hate the negativity, they hate
the toxicity. They don't want to hear it, they don't want to be
bothered by it. But they're gonna watch Thursday Night to see if he's nuts,
and if he's not nuts, they're going to vote for him whether they
hate him or not. If he can rise above. I think he's got
this in him too, Dan. This has been my frustration with Trump.
He can be a uniter, he can make people feel like we're coming together.
He's got to give that unifying message that he's on your side. And
by you, I mean the person that's watching that's having those doubts that you're
talking about that they feel, you know what, this guy. I might
not like him a lot, but he's on my side. He's gonna fight
for me. But here's the here's the only real challenge Thursday Night. Right,
Trump is human. He is human, and sometimes he shows this superhuman
strength, but he's human, and he's going to be standing across the stage
from a jealous little man who has tried to put him in jail and is
still trying to put him in jail. And unless you're the good Lord himself,
that's it's going to be very hard in that moment not to take some
shots. It's true. So that's that's gonna be the biggest test. Trump
has all that, the substance on his side. Right, every he had
the presidency, it was great. Biden'said the presidency, it's terrible. Trump
has a substance. This is about self control and do what he has to
do to show the doubters that he's not nuts. Justin and Lyttleton, you're
on the Dan Caplis Show. Welcome Adam. People kind of annoy me recently.
They always take the personalities in the play. I know you have to
politics as an individual game. You want for a person, not a philosophy.
But we need to make it about the policies, shows interchangeable you yourself.
I disagree with this. Have predicted that he'll drop out, right,
I said, he won't be the nominee. Well, what it could happen
different ways? Seventy five percent chance he will be. In my opinion,
nobody can predict the future, and even thefarious means tomahawk. I was thinking,
cif well, whatever happens, we have to make it about his policies,
right If how you do that? If you want to take a classroom
clinical approach, you'll put it. Everybody's asleep. If you want to say,
hey, were you better off when I was president? Or well he's
president? Gets interesting, Well you have to say he's president, his ideas
failed. Why does everything cost thirty percent more? Why are we in foreign
policy quagmire that we are? Why are we having the worst races of the
southern border. It's Joe Biden and Joe Biden's party. You have to go
with the whole thing. You can't just isolate it to him, because then
what are we doing twenty twenty eight. Yeah, you go after an individual,
or we go after a philosophy. It's got to be the philosophy.
Justin appreciates the very intelligent call, thank you. The other point that needs
to be made and again short to the point, that's where you get your
power is vote for me is a vote for peace. A vote for him
is a vote for war. My term piece, his term war. Drop
the mic. You're on the Dan Campla Show and now back to the Dan
Taplas Show podcast. Trump speaks a lot of truth. Sure, this is
the part of that. Even I won't buy bacon anymore, it's too expensive.
I said, I'd love to have some lovely bacon, Darling, and
she said, no, I'm sorry to expense them. So I think that
may have been artistic license right there. Right. But Trump, which which
is as we're talking more about Thursday night, which is another big question.
Listen, the man is an entertainer. A huge part of his success has
been entertaining, and clearly he has rejected the advice well intentioned, but the
advice that he just prepare in a more traditional way for this debate. You
know, he's out there, he's at rallies, he's among the people,
and and hey, that's what works for him. That's beautiful. And again
to see these crowds and everything else could really matter on election night in Pennsylvania,
his time in Philly, but that's how he gets energized. Ryan,
I don't think it would be only possible. And I'm not suggesting that that
you would want to take the entertainer out of Trump for Thursday Night. I
have one anecdote he could share which would be accurate as opposed to the Bacon
story. We know that despite his expensive lifestyle, he loves Big Max at
McDonald's. And what do you could do? You know, I love Big
Max. Okay, maybe a little too much, but and compare the price
of what they went two dollars and seventy five cents when I took off us
and now they're five dollars and seventy nine cents, you know, something like
that, and some of his best humor spontaneous for all of us that carry
some risk. Hey, I want to get to another really important dynamic four
Thursday night. Okay, and and you know, go out on a limb
here, great peril to myself. But I want to predict right now,
five twenty three thirty three on Monday the twenty fourth, that what we're going
to be talking about on Friday, gonna hear so many people calling the show,
texting and saying, hey Dan, boy, I thought Jake Tapper and
Dana Bash were really fair. Hey Dan, I was surprised at olfair Tapper
and Bash were I think we're going to hear a lot of that on Friday.
I'll tell you in a second why this plays into it here, and
listen. I understand they're Trump haters, right, They've made that clear in
a thousand different ways. We've been playing that sound today. They're both Trump
haters, they both want him defeated. But I still think they're going to
end up being much more fair than people expect. But let's start with this
sound. This is Cassie Hunt on CNN, and her politics are opposite mine,
but she normally does a pretty fine job as anchor given that, but
she really hurt herself and the network with this. As Trump's press secretary is
trying to say, you know, Tapper and Bash are really biased against Donald
Trump, which seems a relevant observation on the eve of the debate. She
cuts her off and ends the segment. It's like journalism malpractice. So he's
basically saying, there, well, will I let Joe Biden win? It
does seem as though many Republicans have set the bar very low in terms of
arguing that Joe Biden is basically a senile. Now you have people like Doug
Bergham coming out and saying, well, President Biden's very accomplished, trying to
set expectations in a different place. What do you expect from Joe Biden.
Well, first of all, it's so it takes someone five minutes to google
Jake Tapper Donald Trump to see the Jake Tapper head, ma'am, can interview
ifeade filter, ma'am. I'm going to stop. If you're statium to attack
my colleagues, I would like to talk about you and Donald Trump, who
you work for, if you are here to speak on his behalf and I
will have this conversation. I am stating facts that your colleagues have stated in
the past. Now I'm sorry. We're going to come back to Caroline.
Thank you very much for your time. You are welcome to come back at
any point. She is welcome to come back and speak Sean Trump, and
that's what you want whole time to Joe Biden when they both join us now
at next early later this week in Atlanta. For this Lord, thanks to
Caroline. That's one of the worst things I've ever seen in broadcasting, let
alone journalist. And that's the opposite of anything anybody could call journalism and to
come from Cassie Hunt too again is a lefty but normally has a much more
professional effect. But think about what that just confirms for the world, for
those who rightfully sit there and say, wait a second, the moderators are
two people who hate Trump and want them to lose. She just confirmed that
Trump's press secretary couldn't even raise fair concerns about the moderators. They censored her
and ended the segment. Ryan, My point is everybody can agree that's horrible,
right, That's not my point. My point is that this is one
more reason to be certain that Tapper and Bash are going to be much more
fair than expected. Because they know they're on record as Trump haters, they
know this just happened. They're going to feel for their own selfish interest as
if they have to bend over backwards to show that they're being fair. But
here's what to watch for. Not so much their questions, because the initial
question is totally meaningless, completely irrelevant. You could ask Biden ten of the
toughest questions imaginable, and there are a thousand, and it wouldn't matter at
all, because if you just let him avoid the question, the question doesn't
matter. The key is in the follow up questions. And this you can
take to the bank right now and you can deposit it at Wells Fargo.
And that is they are going to ask Trump the tough follow up questions as
they should. Will they ask Biden the tough follow up questions as they should?
That's where the real test is. It's in the follow ups. Here's
the key. You have heard this nowhere before other than from me, and
that is the reason. You can be very confident that Tapper and Bash will
be much more balanced. They won't be perfect, right, they hate Trump,
but much more balanced than expected. Is this the secret sauce? They
want to drive Biden out of the race? CNN wants to drive Biden out
of the race. The Left wants to drive Biden out of the race.
This is the lowest hanging fruit in the history of fruit for Tapper and Bash
their own self interest. Be harder on Biden than expected, be more balanced
than expected. It's a win win for them because then they look like journalist
and the Left loves them because they're helping to drive Biden out. They know
Biden is a loser, they know they need him out. Sooner than later
that they cannot afford a scenario where Biden has his final freeze up after the
convention. So it's it's t ball for Bash and Tapper. All they have
to do is be balanced. Here. Everything you say makes perfect logical sense,
which is why it won't a left brain. But I'm telling you,
Dan, I don't know that these two are going to be able to help
themselves. I think they're going to give into this impulse to this right brain
emotional Trump derangement syndrome, hatred of the Orange Man, and it might show
through and what you're talking about, that lack of a follow up with Biden.
They'll they'll ask the tough question. Okay, we got that covered,
and then they'll go in a Trump. One other point about Casey Hunt from
CNN. Her ex Twitter background is a photo of her having done an interview
with Joe Biden shaking his hand and he's smiling. That's her background. Everybody
knows the bias, right and listen, you're right. We're all human and
you can never take the human element out. And so yeah, we talked
earlier about the fact that Trump's going to be feed away from a guy on
stage who's trying to force Trump to end his life in jail. I mean,
how do you completely take the human element out of that? Biden abusing
the criminal justice system to try to put Trump in jail while Biden skates on
all of this obvious garbage. So yeah, you can't take the human element
out. And you're right, Tapper and Bash hate them, and so that
will in some way shape or form shelter. I'm just saying it's going to
be much more balanced than expected. But watch for the follow up questions and
how rigorous are they on the follow ups with Biden? That will be the
true test. Hey, when we come back, I do want to talk
as well about these local races in Colorado and tomorrow primary day, who's going
to win and why you're on the Dan Caplis Show. You're listening to the
Dan Kapliss Show podcast Do Better. Denver tweeted this out says this is a
message and employee just got downtown. Others are getting similar. What's really going
on? And the message says active shooter in downtown Denver. Police are responding
to shots fired near eighteenth and Curtis. If you are outside, you are
advised to run, leave your belongings. Encourage others to leave the unsafe area.
If you are away from this location, stay away. Hide If you
can't escape, hide, block entry with your heavy furniture, lock doors,
and silence your devices. Act if you believe your life is in imminent danger.
Use any means necessary to defend yourself. When in a safe location,
contact emergency services, move away from windows, and it goes on from there.
You know what I'd love to see. I'd love to see a law
that says, in all of these situations there need to be talk, screens
done, and that information needs to be published. Now. I don't know
what actually happened here, what the underlying threat was, but in how many
of these do you think that maybe Krakowana was an issue. Let's go to
a Jeff Hurt. Jeff's running for Congress down in CD three. It's currently
Congressman Bobert's district. As you know, she's now running in four and Jeff's
in a hotly contested primary. Jeff, Welcome back to the Dan Kapla Show.
Hey Dan, it's great to be back with you. Well, thank
you, my friend, by my mask for less than twenty six hours left.
Right, we're at the finish line for sure. Holy cow. Yeah,
And so what's it looking like. Do you think it's going to be
close? And what are you asking people to do? Thanks? Dan,
I'd say I'm feeling consciously optimistic. I feel like we've done everything we can
do. We've reached every corner of the district with our ads, We've knocked
a ton of doors, made countless calls. I've actually had four of my
five kids dialing to get out the vote as part of the team. What's
wrong with the f It's a newborn, right, he's two years old.
So yeah, we're going to do that. Well converted, Yeah, that's
right. Well, you know he's able to get some words out, but
he's got a ways to go before he's going to persuade some voters. So
it's all hands on deck, not taking anything for granted, working hard.
And I guess the message would be, Dan, if you're vote in CD
three and you want to hold a seat and it matters to you that is
held by Republican vote Jefford, Well, it should matter to everybody that Congress
is held by Republicans, right, and it could come down to this seat.
Absolutely, Yeah, this is one of the targeted seventeen Democratic congressional campaign
seats. They're red the Blue project. This is a hotly contestant seat and
we've got a Democrat on the the other end of the primary who's got a
ton of money, and so we need to feel the best candidate that we
can. I don't think there's any doubt about that. What does Frish have
now, he's got to be thirteen to fourteen million. Yeah, I think
it's going to be even higher than that. I think he's raised more than
fifty million. He's got money than any Democratic House candidate in the United States
of America other than Hakim Jeffries, the minority leader. Well, beautiful member,
and that's why this will be a top top seat for them, and
we got to hold them off. Well, just remember New Coke and Jeb
Bush, right, I mean New Coke. Didn't they spend one hundred million
on that campaign and I haven't seen anybody drinking New Coke? And Jeb Bush
is not president and he had one hundred and fifty million. So, Jeff
Hurd, for those who are not familiar with you, I know your very
impressive story, but please tell those who have not heard it. Sure,
so I am Claudor natives who grew up here on the Western Slope and raising
my family here, are working authentic, not a career politician, sent my
career working to keep energy costs low for rural America. And I know the
issues that rural Colorado's facing. We feel like we're being left behind. We're
losing jobs and opportunities, and people see we need a different directions, and
voters are creating a serious and credible Republican choice to represent them. And I'm
that guy. I'm a problem solving conservative, not afraid to take on tough
challenges and make life better for families and small businesses and communities in southern and
western Colorado. Yeah. And I know you've had some people I really respect
say that they're going to support you any of those names you want to throw
out and listen, I don't think endorsements mean that much in races anymore.
I just know there are some folks I think a lot of who think a
lot of you we have not met personally. Yeah, Dan, listen,
I say the only endorsement that ultimately matters is the one I'm working hard to
get tomorrow on election day. That is true. I've been I'm happy to
say that I've got to support from a broad coalition of Republicans all across the
political spectrum. I've got everyone from Scott Gessler, former Secretary of State here
who's endorsement, to Bill Owens to Hank Around to former Interior Secretary Gale Morton,
to a bunch of county commissioners currently serving in this district. And so
that's broad based. The support, I think is one of the things that
also makes me a really formidable candidate and the best individual to represent real Colorado.
Boy. I don't think there's any doubt that you would beat Adam Frish.
But Jeff, hey, appreciate the time. What's that website for those
who want to check you out at the last minute? Website? Dan is
Jeff Heard for Colorado dot Com. That's j E F F h U R
D F O R Colorado dot com. All right, man, Well,
Hey, appreciate you spending the time and good luck. Thanks so much,
Dan. We'll talk to you soon. Thank you. That is Jeff Heard.
Got to tell you, I have a lot of respect for people who
get into that meat grinder. Have you ever run for office been in one
of those political type deals? Even like student government or polastic election. I
won, Dan was a twofold election for NHS president and for senior class president
in my high school. I'll tell you what high school class for. Anybody
who gets in the arena, you know that you're taking some risk. That
stuff is tough. And have we have some text on all of that too.
Let me get to some of those. Yeah, you know it's gone
so fast. Primary dat tomorrow, just real quick. On this race Stan
with Jeff Heard, he's facing not only the state GOP endorsed Ron Hanks,
who's airing a lot of radio commercials, including on this station and this show.
Stephen Varrella, who I know you and I are both very impressed with
down in Peblo himself. He's a converted like you, Democrat to Republican.
I think he's got a great story to tell. But Hurd has been the
target of a lot of dark money ads coming in, one of which featured
the state GOP clipping and Adam Frisch ad against herd and then taking out the
Adam Frish part. So basically using Democrat propaganda and talking points against Jeff Heard
unheard, unintended. Yeah, and more broadly, this whole thing about Democrats
dishonestly getting involved in GOP primaries. Listen, I'm just all about honesty.
If you want to get into the primary and say, hey, we're a
bunch of Democrats and we really think that this guy or gil should be your
nominee, that's fine. I have no beef with that. But to pretend
you're something else, right, to pretend you're doing something else when you're really
trying to get the who you view as the weakest Republican nominated, it's just
so fundamentally dishonested. And it's funny because they're doing the exact same stuff that
they were doing for Ron Hanks in the Senate race against Joe Day. This
whole notion of Ron Hanks is too conservative for Colorado. And who do they
think that's going to appeal to. It's a real cheap, cynical play,
and I don't think many people are going to fall for it. Hopefully none.
Yeah, I'm trying to remember where that has worked and not worked.
I can't remember it working in Colorado. No, but some tech coming in
on this, and then after this break, I want to get into a
story out of Denver where they're trying to reduce the deaths on two major streets,
and I think I think they're missing the big point, good goal,
right because Denver streets and Colorado as a whole right now is just a killing
field. You know, way way way too much. Want would be too
many, but way too much death on the roadways. But the solution,
I think is one the left is not willing to take on, which is
one reason the left has to go a couple of texts, Dan, I
got to disagree. Bash and Taper are blinded by their hate for Trump.
They will do anything they can to make sure he loses Mike in Henderson.
Yeah, but keep in mind Mike. One of the ways they know they
have to One of the things they know they have to do to have any
chance to defeat Trump is run Biden out of the race, because can you
imagine Biden by election day? He's not functional now. No matter what happens,
if he has a good night Thursday night, America is not going to
forget everything they've already seen and he's just going to get worse. Dan,
wild media cover up and tap dance for Biden. Would you ever think they'll
not be completely biased? Blank holes? I completely disagree. This will be
anything but the same old thing from CNN. Gary. I wish we could
bet a tomahawk because I never get tired of tomahawks. I'm gonna win one
from Ryan, I'm gonna win run from Kelly, and then I'm going to
go to dinner that night. I'm gonna eat to tomahawks at long tomahawks at
lunch. Dan Cassie hunts banner picture and X has her shaking hands with Biden,
way to show on bias. She is Alexa, thank you Alexi.
Yeah, but again, that's why they're going to bend over backwards. That
and the fact that they want Biden out of the race so they can beat
Trump. We've got a lot more great texts when we come back. What
Denver and all of Colorado really need to do to have fewer desks on the
roadway. But the left isn't willing to go there. They just don't value
your life enough. You're on the Dan Capla Show and now back to the
Dan Kaplass Show podcast. The only thing that could make it better bacon.
Even I won't buy bacon anymore, it's too expensive. I said, I'd
love to have some lovely bacon darling, and she said, no, I'm
sorry to expense, so I would leave that one home Thursday night, right,
that doesn't have Trump is known for his authenticity, brutal honesty. That
one doesn't ring too authentic to me. Big Max, though he's all about
the Big Max. Do you think he's a bacont guy. He's not a
bacon guy. His one vice, Dan, is his diet is not great.
He's never drunk, he's never smoked, he's never done drugs. He's
in pretty good shape for being seventy eight years old, but his diet's not
great. And again, you know, Thursday night'll be very serious and all
that good stuff. But Trump is an entertainer. It's been part of his
magic, and I expect we'll see some of that flash on Thursday night as
well. Dan, why not shoot for three tomahawks? You know I've been
egging you on for a while. Now. We can get a big table
with you at the head while we rub it in, Kimberly, as long
as I'm not at the head of the table, and the only thing getting
rubbed in will be some nice little maybe salt and pepper to the three tomahawks.
Strikes that I'm gonna watch shrooms, Dan. Yes, yes, yes,
Dad, I'll bet a tomawk with the side of King crab Lake except
for Mike. Boy. That sounds like a great appetizer A lot on the
line to me. Yes, and all of these tomawks, right, I'm
winning all of these because Biden's not going to be their nominee. This is
like stealing. I feel guilty over this, but says a text or Dan,
crazy idea. But if I was Sourus, I would make it so
Joe has to appear to have a medical emergency right before or during the debate
if they want Joe out. This allows Joe to exit gracefully. They could
even say he's physically okay enough to finish his term. I think the texture
is misperceiving what's happening. Biden wanted this. Biden wanted this because he knows
he's not going to be around for debates in the fall. He wants this
one last time on stage with Trump. He wants to spew venom. So
that's where this is coming from. And my humble opinion, Dan, we
know that Biden has a copy of the questions and has been preparing his canned
answers. I don't think CNN could get away with it having been busted on
that at least once. Let me get to this quick story. I'll follow
up and it's some more tomorrow, but I know you know it's true and
want to get it out there because hey, you might be in traffic right
now. If not, you're going to be in traffic sometime soon. The
greatest danger what you care about in life, your kids, your spouse,
you third will ever be in unless you serve in our police or military is
driving around Colorado and there's this big headline. Denver takes aim at traffic dess
on two major streets, hoping to slow down speeding drivers. And we'll get
into it some more tomorrow because it matters so much to you and to me.
But the gist of this story is Diamond, Mike Johnston, Yap and
yeap and and y appen about how they're going to have some more speed enforcement
by radar cameras, and they're gonna have some more design stuff and this and
that. Listen, all of these yapping politicians understand something. The carnage on
Colorado's roads. You're always gonna have a certain amount, but that doesn't mean
we should accept it. We should be working like mad men and mad women
every single day of our lives to reduce the number of traffic deaths. It
costs so much grievous pain and upset so many lives and even generationally in Colorado.
But here's the thing. The left doesn't care about that. Right.
If the left cares about it, they wouldn't do what they're doing. Now.
You want to talk about these increasing traffic deaths in Colorado, It is
not hard to figure out. And it goes right back to the feet of
the left. What do you have going on? Go back and trace it.
You have legalization in marijuana. What the haities do you expect is going
to happen? You legalize marijuana and then you legalize this high potency stuff.
He's like, Oh, we're not going to have more deaths on the roadway.
Of course, you know you are. You know on the left that
you're going to have more death and more destruction on the roadway. You know
that's going to happen. And it has the other thing the left's done,
and I know it. Listen, I do catastrophic injury work. I represent
victims I see in my practice all the time. I have a whole bunch
of cases where the defendant, after doing something reckless and wreaking all this havoc
and carnage, isn't even charged with being under the influence of marijuana, and
we're able to prove during our civil case that they were so. And I'm
not criticizing law enforcement. They are way underfunded and understaffed. But that's the
other thing. The left is not willing to back the blue. The left
is not willing to back the blue A with adequate resources and man and woman
power and staffing, and b that the left won't back the blue in terms
of hey, I got your back. If you're out there, you got
the right intention, doing the job the best you can. I got your
back. Instead, the left is not only cutting back the resources, but
ready to throw Blue under the bus and in jail anytime it's convenient for the
left. So you cannot be expecting officers to be as forward leaning when the
left is under cutting them all the time. So you get a lot less
enforcement. So combine Krakawana legalized Krakawana with a lot less enforcement because the left's
undermining cops. And what do you think is going to happen. You're going
to get all these deaths. And then the left prance is around pretending to
care so much, well, not enough to protect you. That's what's really
going on. And then you add a third layer, Ryn, and I'm
going to be getting into this more tomorrow. You add a third layer,
which is what the left has done. What the Left has done to not
only weaken our defenses against reckless truckers who wreak all this havoc and carnage across
Colorado, but actually actually embolden those truckers. And listen, there are a
lot of heroic trucks, the heroic truckers. They are American heroes, and
they're the reason, in part, we get to enjoy our lifestyles. But
there's another part to that industry, a really awful underbelly that makes the roads
of Colorado extraordinarily dangerous. And you see it all the time, and the
Left is just doing their bidding. When your polo steps up there, Oh
yeah, yeah, Okay, you decided to drive your truck into traffic.
You burned all these people alive. No, I'm going to cut your sentence
down one year for each person you torched. Right now, we've got to
start protecting ourselves in Colorado, and I know how Ryan. Great job,
Thank you, Kelly. Join us tomorrow.
