Speaker 1: and to subscribe, download and listen to the show every
Speaker 1: single day on your favorite podcast platform. The Harris campaign
Speaker 1: now just openly, just openly acknowledging that they're running a
Speaker 1: basement campaign. They're hiding earth, They're going to hide her
Speaker 1: as much as possible, and just betting the American people
Speaker 1: won't care, won't mind, and it'll all pay off for them.
Speaker 1: Eight five five four zero five A two five five
Speaker 1: the number text D A N five seven seven three nine.
Speaker 1: So much fun stuff today, starting with Heidig and all
Speaker 1: into co host. We always enjoy that. Thank you, Heidi,
Speaker 1: Appreciate you being here.
Speaker 2: Happy to be here, Dan. There's a lot going on
Speaker 2: in the world to talk about.
Speaker 1: The board, and let's start with what I alluded to
Speaker 1: off the top, which is okay. So President Trump today
Speaker 1: comes out, We got all the sound, obviously, and he
Speaker 1: challenges her now to three debates, after saying he would
Speaker 1: only do one on Fox, no further negotiations. You know,
Speaker 1: she gave him the double middle finger and kind of
Speaker 1: laughed at it, and so then, let's face it, he
Speaker 1: folds on that and now challenges her two three accepts
Speaker 1: one the ABC debate that she initially said she would accept.
Speaker 1: What do you make of all that?
Speaker 2: I mean, we've got to get her on stage, We've
Speaker 2: got to get her on the record, and I believe
Speaker 2: Trump will do well with her on the stage. So
Speaker 2: the more debates the better. But it's incredible that they
Speaker 2: squawked so much about how Trump was ducking the debates
Speaker 2: and then he offers up three today and she barely
Speaker 2: commits to one. And then it was funny I saw
Speaker 2: in one of the clips that she did it answer
Speaker 2: a couple questions with the journalists today, and one of
Speaker 2: the questions was when are you going to do a
Speaker 2: long interview or when are you going to talk to
Speaker 2: Somebody said, oh, we're working on planning one sit down
Speaker 2: interview by the end of the month.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: See that's what I mean by not even trying to
Speaker 1: hide it. And they're just betting the American people won't
Speaker 1: care and will they? You tell me, is this going
Speaker 1: to cost her electorally? Because on the debates at this point,
Speaker 1: I mean, she's doing what you would advise her to
Speaker 1: do if you were with her campaign out there claiming victory.
Speaker 1: Now Trump caved. He's finally agreed to the September ten
Speaker 1: ABC debates she had proposed and he had refused. So
Speaker 1: she's claiming victory on that, not agreeing at least at
Speaker 1: this point to the other two debates he's proposed. So
Speaker 1: do you think this is going to pay off for
Speaker 1: just openly in the basement, staying away and I'm going
Speaker 1: to beat him that way?
Speaker 2: Well, it worked for Biden, didn't it. And the media
Speaker 2: is complicit in this. They will cover her, We're ind
Speaker 2: and support her doing this, which is just terrible, terrible,
Speaker 2: It's very frustrating.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 1: See, I'm not so sure it's going to work for
Speaker 1: in the end because I personally think, listen, you know
Speaker 1: much more about this. You've run a good natorial campaign
Speaker 1: all that stuff, But from everything I've seen, I think
Speaker 1: right now, perception is separate from reality, and right now,
Speaker 1: I think there's this contagion of enthusiasm which is enormous
Speaker 1: and wide and deep in certain segments, primarily the base,
Speaker 1: And I think you're seeing this shift as we predicted
Speaker 1: in the polls. Everything else but I am not at
Speaker 1: all convinced at this point that it's going to translate
Speaker 1: come election day, because we all know right on election
Speaker 1: day it's about it's about what people really believe as
Speaker 1: opposed to what they're willing to tell a polster. And
Speaker 1: I think you've got And of course it's about intensity
Speaker 1: and commitment, and you've got to believe that there are
Speaker 1: an awful lot of people right now who would tend
Speaker 1: to favor Trump who would be reluctant to tell anybody that,
Speaker 1: including a polster, fantasy or reality.
Speaker 2: I hope you're right. I so hope you're right. I
Speaker 2: tweeted out this morning the Frank Lentz latest polling, and
Speaker 2: I don't always agree with him, but he did kind
Speaker 2: of a comprehensive look at the pulling and said that
Speaker 2: Kamala would be elected president today if the election were today,
Speaker 2: And I said, what is going on? Why does half
Speaker 2: of America not get how bad things are? And they
Speaker 2: would actually vote for four more years of this? It
Speaker 2: just blows me away. And all I can say is
Speaker 2: that the media is complicit. The mainstream media supports this
Speaker 2: and is part of the problem, and it drives me crazy.
Speaker 1: Well, and I think it brings us back to the debate,
Speaker 1: and i'd say debates. I'd like for there to be debates,
Speaker 1: but at this point, I don't think we can count
Speaker 1: on more than the one. And I think right now
Speaker 1: that the perception that, Okay, that's going to be Trump's
Speaker 1: big opportunity because Kamala Harris is obviously so inept, and
Speaker 1: she is, but in a controlled setting like that, with
Speaker 1: ABC moderating and with the expectations so low for her,
Speaker 1: I think it's almost a guaranteed w for her because
Speaker 1: at first, you know, you're comparing it to Biden against Trump,
Speaker 1: and compared to how Biden, you know she's going to
Speaker 1: look like Einstein. Second, because it is ABC in control,
Speaker 1: they're going to protect her, and she's going to play
Speaker 1: not to lose. And so folks hoping for some big
Speaker 1: knockout in this debate, I think that's completely unrealistic. I
Speaker 1: think the great opportunity in the debate is for President
Speaker 1: Trump because I think that right now, just like with
Speaker 1: Biden in twenty right, I don't think there were five
Speaker 1: people in the country voted for Joe Biden. Unfortunately, there
Speaker 1: were just a little too many voted against President Trump,
Speaker 1: and I think we're looking at the same thing here.
Speaker 1: You've got, Yeah, this core enthusiastic part of the base
Speaker 1: for Harris, But in order to get her over the top,
Speaker 1: I think it's going to have to be people voting
Speaker 1: against Trump. So I think it's on September ten, more
Speaker 1: about Trump impressing than Harris collapsing.
Speaker 2: I agree with you. I'm optimistic that people are going
Speaker 2: to wake up to the reality of their pocketbook, that
Speaker 2: it is the economy stupid, and that people are going
Speaker 2: to be feeling tremendous pain. They already are, but obviously
Speaker 2: not enough to vote differently. And I do think the
Speaker 2: economy is going to be the key issue that people
Speaker 2: vote on if they do end up voting for Donald Trump.
Speaker 2: And you heard is his name Jim Kramer or one
Speaker 2: of those guys that's very left say, if you're going
Speaker 2: to vote, if you want to vote for your pocketbook,
Speaker 2: you vote for Trump.
Speaker 1: Right right. And my bet, Heidi, And that's why I
Speaker 1: sitting here today. If I had bet my car, I
Speaker 1: would bet it on Trump winning. And the reason for
Speaker 1: that is, at the end of the day, big picture,
Speaker 1: I just cannot believe that in the Swing States, because
Speaker 1: that's all we're talking about right in those six states.
Speaker 1: I cannot believe that people are going to choose a
Speaker 1: San Francisco radical. And I understand that she's running a
Speaker 1: basement campaign now, but she was around for three and
Speaker 1: a half years, right, and there was a reason she
Speaker 1: had I think, maybe the lowest approval of any VP
Speaker 1: right in modern history. People get it is, in fact,
Speaker 1: to San Francisco radical, and I just can't believe that
Speaker 1: people are going to be willing to go there unless
Speaker 1: President Trump does some things that make it just too
Speaker 1: hard for people to vote for.
Speaker 2: We've got to hammer the border too, We've got to
Speaker 2: talk about immigration. What's happening in Denver, what's happening in
Speaker 2: most cities across the country. It's the border, it's the economy,
Speaker 2: it's our kids. Our kids are not in a good
Speaker 2: place right now.
Speaker 1: Well, which brings us back to the debate, right because
Speaker 1: she is going to run this basement campaign right on
Speaker 1: through election day unless their poll numbers collapse, which could happen,
Speaker 1: I mean it could happen late September, early October. But
Speaker 1: so we know, the ABC moderators aren't going to pin
Speaker 1: her down on these issues. They'll ask her the question,
Speaker 1: but not the follow up question, which is what really matters.
Speaker 1: So it's going to be up to President Trump to
Speaker 1: pin her down in this debate. Which brings me back
Speaker 1: to you know, he's come through in a lot of
Speaker 1: big situations and in some others, you know, you wish
Speaker 1: it been better, but he's going to have to know it.
Speaker 1: He's going to have to pin her down.
Speaker 2: I agree with you, and I do think this is
Speaker 2: a day by day slugfest. This is not about one
Speaker 2: debate or one certain issue. This is about, you know,
Speaker 2: death by a thousand cuts, like just hammering her, hammering walls,
Speaker 2: hammering the Democrat policies every single day, and everyone on
Speaker 2: social media doing that, everyone doing it in their neighborhoods.
Speaker 2: I don't feel confident in the ground game right now.
Speaker 2: I think everybody's got to wake up and get involved,
Speaker 2: even if everyone just gets on one of the apps.
Speaker 2: And I'm happy to talk about that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, let's do that.
Speaker 2: And knocks a door, knocks a few doors, makes a
Speaker 2: few phone calls, writes a few postcards. Even in those
Speaker 2: swing states, you can do it through these apps. You
Speaker 2: can write postcards to people in Philadelphia Atlanta. We've got
Speaker 2: to help those cities get across the finish line for Republicans.
Speaker 2: We've got to get Republicans to turn out and vote.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and let's talk about how to do that. But
Speaker 1: listen again, I think one of the real breaks for
Speaker 1: Trump has been walls. And when we come back, I
Speaker 1: want to talk about the danger right now, the danger
Speaker 1: right now that all of these revelations about walls and
Speaker 1: stolen valor and how kooky far left he is, et cetera,
Speaker 1: may give the left an excuse, may give Harris an
Speaker 1: excuse to run them off the ticket, fix the mistake,
Speaker 1: and put Shapiro back in there. So one of the
Speaker 1: things I want to kick around with you and give
Speaker 1: us a call eight five five for zero five eight
Speaker 1: two five five text d an five seven seven thirty
Speaker 1: nine is at this point, would you rather have Wall
Speaker 1: stay on the ticket or would you rather have the
Speaker 1: Harris campaign dump them? If like me and Heidi, you
Speaker 1: want to see Trump win, would you rather Wall stay
Speaker 1: or go eight five five for zero five A two
Speaker 1: five five You're on the Dan Kapla Show.
Speaker 5: And now back to the Dan Kapla Show podcast.
Speaker 2: She hasn't done an interview.
Speaker 5: She can't do an interview.
Speaker 6: She's barely competent and she can't do an interview.
Speaker 2: But I look forward to the.
Speaker 6: Debates because I think we have to set the record straight.
Speaker 1: What do you think about that line of attack? How
Speaker 1: do you can all co hosting today? What do you
Speaker 1: think about that?
Speaker 2: I think it's a much better attack than the ones
Speaker 2: I've heard previously. She is completely incompetent. And when she
Speaker 2: said in her speech, I guess at a rally that
Speaker 2: she will on day one do everything she can to
Speaker 2: lower prices, I'm like, isn't it day three and a
Speaker 2: half year in?
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, exactly, exactly more from President Trump today.
Speaker 6: But as the borders are, she's been the worst borders
Speaker 6: are in history, in the world history. I think the
Speaker 6: number is twenty million, But whether it's fifteen or twenty,
Speaker 6: it's numbers that nobody's ever heard before. Twenty million people
Speaker 6: came over the voter and the last during the Biden
Speaker 6: Harris administration, twenty million people, and it could be very
Speaker 6: much higher than that. Nobody really knows what the number is.
Speaker 6: Nobody knows.
Speaker 1: Somebody has a clue.
Speaker 6: And the gotaways, they call them the gotaways, The gotaways
Speaker 6: are at numbers.
Speaker 2: Somebody was quizzing me on it the other day.
Speaker 6: No, No, I don't think I think so, sir, I
Speaker 6: don't think so. They have no idea what those numbers are.
Speaker 1: You would think the border alone would be enough to
Speaker 1: win this race, you'd think, Dan so if and it's
Speaker 1: a big gift the polls are accurate right now?
Speaker 2: Why because we can't get our message through and they're
Speaker 2: doing everything they can to cover up the bad stuff
Speaker 2: that's happening. Unless you live in a city and are
Speaker 2: seeing it and feeling it and living it. I don't
Speaker 2: think the rest of America really understands the impact of
Speaker 2: what's happening at the border in their local neighborhoods.
Speaker 1: But let me ask you about that, because I understand
Speaker 1: how frustrating it is to see the media lie and
Speaker 1: cover up for Harrison, Wallas, etc. But not that many
Speaker 1: people watch the media. I mean we do because we're
Speaker 1: in the business, right yep, But not that many people do.
Speaker 1: And you would think at this point America has lived it.
Speaker 1: America has experienced it. And so if underline that the
Speaker 1: Poles are right, why and because it seems like we
Speaker 1: shouldn't even have to get a message through people would
Speaker 1: already know it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Dan, And when you look at the polls, why
Speaker 2: did Kamala get such a bump? If she is so
Speaker 2: incompetent it is leading the border situation? Then is it
Speaker 2: a Trump thing? Is it a policy thing? Like why
Speaker 2: did so many people just get all energized and ready
Speaker 2: to go to war for her?
Speaker 1: Well, I think the bump is easy and doesn't worry
Speaker 1: me because if to the extent the bump is just
Speaker 1: a lot of people who would have been supporting Biden anyway,
Speaker 1: you know, just now going back into that camp because
Speaker 1: it's somebody with a pulse, you know, it's it's somebody
Speaker 1: who's not twenty, but they're not ninety. And so that
Speaker 1: to me was at least expected and doesn't really concern me.
Speaker 1: And I would expect then that you're going to get
Speaker 1: a little bit on top of that, right, because you're
Speaker 1: going to get folks who just the age comparison thing,
Speaker 1: they just look at that say yeah, it's time for
Speaker 1: a new president and everything else. And she's not out
Speaker 1: there making these big mistakes because she's in hiding. So
Speaker 1: you're going to get a few more folks there. But again,
Speaker 1: when you look historically, Jeez, how far behind was President
Speaker 1: Trump at this point when he won in sixteen. I
Speaker 1: think he was. He had to be seven eight nine
Speaker 1: points behind nationally, I think so at this point and
Speaker 1: then just outperformed at the polls. So yeah, would I
Speaker 1: rather be up three or four points right now?
Speaker 5: You bet?
Speaker 1: But so far? You know, I don't look at the
Speaker 1: polls and say we're sunk my expectation. And tell me
Speaker 1: if you think this is a smart strategy. Yeah, Ryan, Well,
Speaker 1: if I may interject some good news, Yeah, we like
Speaker 1: good news.
Speaker 7: Okay, Well, Rasmussen reports, which again they wait, I know,
Speaker 7: I know, but they got Trump up five nationally forty
Speaker 7: nine forty four. But here's a Teller CNBC poll, Trump
Speaker 7: forty eight, Harris forty six.
Speaker 5: That's national. That's plus two Trump CNBC.
Speaker 1: And that is encouraging as long as it's not an outlier,
Speaker 1: because what I've expected all is that that Trump would
Speaker 1: in many ways be giving Harris August and just assuming
Speaker 1: at this point through the convention, give them that.
Speaker 5: He's said exactly that pressed today. Well, you took notes
Speaker 5: from you, Dan, okay.
Speaker 1: And I'm not saying it's the ideal strategy. Listen, if
Speaker 1: you had all the money in the world that then
Speaker 1: you know you'd be or would you be let's say
Speaker 1: that you had an unlimited budget with that campaign. Would
Speaker 1: you be carpet bombing now the swing states with these
Speaker 1: spots that make it clear who she and Walls are
Speaker 1: or do you have to save those because they're just
Speaker 1: not going to be effective in August in summer when
Speaker 1: they've got the DEM convention coming up, what would you do?
Speaker 2: I would play happy warrior and talk about my vision
Speaker 2: for the country and paint a bright picture for our
Speaker 2: future to get people excited and a little bit interested
Speaker 2: if they see it on the news that oh god,
Speaker 2: it would be nice to be able to afford to
Speaker 2: buy a house again or not, you know, Duck and
Speaker 2: Bob and weave when you go to the grocery store.
Speaker 2: I think we've got to paint a very very positive
Speaker 2: picture about what the future looks like under a President Trump,
Speaker 2: because we're living under Biden right now. We're living under
Speaker 2: Biden Harris, So we've got to make that distinction, and
Speaker 2: then we can carpet bomb closer to the election and
Speaker 2: go negative.
Speaker 1: Yeah, because and I understand people have been watching the Olympics,
Speaker 1: seeing a bunch of hairspots and everything else. But because
Speaker 1: she's got this mole right now and they've got the
Speaker 1: convention coming up, I get it on the Trump side
Speaker 1: that they want to just, you know, let her hopefully
Speaker 1: let that fire burn out through August and then just
Speaker 1: relentlessly hit hard. Now at that point, what do you have, Heidi.
Speaker 1: At that point, you've got basically another nine weeks and
Speaker 1: early voting starting mid September some places. Yeah, so's it's
Speaker 1: got to be really good when they kick it in.
Speaker 1: Here's some more from Trump.
Speaker 6: The presidency was taken away from Joe Biden. And I'm
Speaker 6: no Biden fan, but I'll tell you what, from a
Speaker 6: constitutional standpoint, from any standpoint you look at, they took
Speaker 6: the presidency away, saying he lost after the debate, he
Speaker 6: couldn't win. Well, I don't know that that's true necessarily,
Speaker 6: but whether he could win or he couldn't win, he
Speaker 6: had the right to run, and they took it away.
Speaker 6: They said they're going to use the twenty fifth Amendment.
Speaker 2: They're going to hit you hard.
Speaker 6: Either.
Speaker 2: We could do it the nice I heard.
Speaker 6: I know exactly because I know a lot of people
Speaker 6: on the other side, believe it or not. And uh,
Speaker 6: they said we'll do it the nice way, We'll do
Speaker 6: it the hard way. And he said, all right, So
Speaker 6: that mean they've really taken What they've done is pretty incredible.
Speaker 1: You know. The first part of that I consider to
Speaker 1: be kind of the A Trump. And we're just really
Speaker 1: really going to need the A Trump. We're going to
Speaker 1: need the A Trump for these next ninety days. We're
Speaker 1: really really going to need the A Trump once the
Speaker 1: Democratic Convention ends. I know it's easy for me to
Speaker 1: say he's been out there taking all of this abuse
Speaker 1: for years. He's the guy who almost got his head
Speaker 1: blown off, and so easy to say from the comfort
Speaker 1: of a radio studio. But I still believe he's going
Speaker 1: to win. But it's going to take the Trump.
Speaker 2: I agree with you, Dan, But here's what I remember
Speaker 2: from the governor's race, though, is you know, every day
Speaker 2: you're going to war. You're going to war against the media,
Speaker 2: you're going to war against the Democrat machine, you're going
Speaker 2: to war against your opponent, and you've got to have
Speaker 2: a strategy to be just enough negative but just enough positive.
Speaker 2: I remember in the last debate when Polus pulled out
Speaker 2: the I'm a happy dad and you're a mad mom,
Speaker 2: And I was like, Okay, he's obviously done polling and
Speaker 2: the pulling says they're tired of the negative. They want
Speaker 2: the happy warrior.
Speaker 1: Yeah and boom.
Speaker 2: You know so, And I know that he was looking
Speaker 2: at data every single day, and I think that's got
Speaker 2: to be a part of what we're doing is really
Speaker 2: figuring out what do people what problems do people want
Speaker 2: solved in their lives. And it doesn't have to be complicated,
Speaker 2: but it's that's how Trump's going to win over the
Speaker 2: suburban moms.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and he has so much to work with it
Speaker 1: because it's not theory. He has these successes in the
Speaker 1: categories that matter most to so many people. Right. He
Speaker 1: has the success with peace, and you contrast that to
Speaker 1: this Biden administration war. He has the success with prosperity.
Speaker 1: He has those successes to talk about. But I agree
Speaker 1: with you, it needs to be that balance because at
Speaker 1: the same time, he has to be out there hammering
Speaker 1: on the fact that they're hiding and disrespecting the American
Speaker 1: people by hiding. So, wow, it's going to be a
Speaker 1: wild ninety days.
Speaker 3: Hidi.
Speaker 1: You know, all kind enough to be with us, let
Speaker 1: me come back. Would you rather see Walls stay on
Speaker 1: the ticket at this point or get run off the
Speaker 1: ticket with the perils that carries. You're on the Dan
Speaker 1: Capla Show.
Speaker 5: You're listening to the Dan Kaplis Show podcast.
Speaker 3: Wells, he did.
Speaker 5: Make a comment speaking to a group.
Speaker 8: He's done it a couple of times where he has
Speaker 8: used language that has suggested that he carried weapons in
Speaker 8: a fighting situation.
Speaker 5: As you know with your contact.
Speaker 8: With the military, I know from coming from a military family,
Speaker 8: there is a difference between being in a combat area,
Speaker 8: being involved at a time of war, and actually being
Speaker 8: in a position where people are shooting at you. There
Speaker 8: is no evidence that at any time Governor Waltz was
Speaker 8: in a position of being shot at, and some of
Speaker 8: his language could easily be seen.
Speaker 1: To suggest that he was.
Speaker 8: So that is absolutely false when he said that about
Speaker 8: gun rights out.
Speaker 1: There, do you think CNN is trying to run him out?
Speaker 2: That sounds like it. That's shocking to me.
Speaker 1: Yeah, And so here's a question for eight five five
Speaker 1: four zero five eight two five five will go to
Speaker 1: the phones now TEXTDA and five seven seven three nine.
Speaker 1: Hidi Gano generously co hosting. Would you, if you had
Speaker 1: the choice, would you want him to stay on the
Speaker 1: ticket or get dumped.
Speaker 2: I want Whilt's on the ticket because if they dump
Speaker 2: him within two days, the media will put it in
Speaker 2: the back and no one will even remember he was
Speaker 2: part of it. They'll have Josh Shapiro, a fresh new face, right, killing.
Speaker 1: It right right. No, I would much, much, much much
Speaker 1: rather you stay on the ticket because you're absolutely right,
Speaker 1: and they'd fix the big mistake and they'd bring in
Speaker 1: Shapiro and possibly lock up Pennsylvania. Yeah, we all need
Speaker 1: Wals on the ticket. Let's go to the phone line.
Speaker 1: Let's start with how about PJ in Greeley, Colorado. You're
Speaker 1: on the Dan Kapla show with Howdi ganaw Welcome PJ.
Speaker 3: Hi Dan Hi hid? Can you hear me? My voice
Speaker 3: wasn't coming through a couple of beautifully beautifully great well,
Speaker 3: God bless both of you, and God bless your show
Speaker 3: for what you do. I'm really impressed with your professionalism,
Speaker 3: Thank you, and the sound analysis that you give. It's
Speaker 3: really wonderful.
Speaker 1: Thank you.
Speaker 3: I wanted to talk about the question you asked, but
Speaker 3: then I have a comment on the border. I'm I'm
Speaker 3: not sure, to be honest with you, because on one hand,
Speaker 3: you know, Trump has never had it easy, so so
Speaker 3: why should that change now, you know? And uh. And
Speaker 3: on the other hand, I see a point. I see
Speaker 3: a point that this is a better route to go
Speaker 3: if he stays on the pitch because there's so much there.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and above all, PJ. For me, it is to
Speaker 1: keep Josh Shapiro off the ticket, because again, I think
Speaker 1: that was the biggest, one of the biggest mistakes in
Speaker 1: American political history for her not to put Shapiro on
Speaker 1: the team.
Speaker 2: But Dan, why do you like after reading the follow
Speaker 2: up on that, why do you think or PJ, you
Speaker 2: answered this that she didn't pick Shapiro. Is it truly
Speaker 2: because of his Jewish identity? Or is it because she
Speaker 2: didn't want to be, you know, like glossed over because
Speaker 2: he would outshine her?
Speaker 1: What do you think, PJ?
Speaker 3: Well, I heard I heard Dan talk about that the
Speaker 3: other day, and I totally agree with him, because Shapiro
Speaker 3: somewhat reminds me of the late Governor Lamb. You know,
Speaker 3: he he is a moderate, you know, and he he's sharp,
Speaker 3: He's very sharp. I'm all the best in them in
Speaker 3: the future. But you know, I just hope that someth wins.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I, PJ. Appreciate the call, Thank you, my friend.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I know. I didn't want to make a
Speaker 3: comment on the border.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Oh, it has to be sealed because the order needs
Speaker 3: the border needs order, and it has to be sealed
Speaker 3: because it seems to me we have a priority in
Speaker 3: this country, and that is the Native Americans. I don't
Speaker 3: want them to lose their land, and I want to
Speaker 3: see the border sealed. That's all.
Speaker 1: Thank you, Thank you, my friend.
Speaker 3: PJ.
Speaker 1: Appreciate the call. It's one of the reasons idea. As
Speaker 1: we sit here today, I remain confident President Trump is
Speaker 1: going to win unless he does something to make himself
Speaker 1: just completely unacceptable to people. And I don't think that's
Speaker 1: going to happen. And here's why. Because Americans across party lines,
Speaker 1: to what a sixty seventy percent rate, want that border closed.
Speaker 1: And this is a clear choice election. It doesn't matter
Speaker 1: what messaging goes on spots. Americans know Trump he goes
Speaker 1: closed order. Harris equals wide open border. Just impossible for
Speaker 1: me to believe Americans are going to vote for a
Speaker 1: wide open border.
Speaker 2: I think our Congresswoman Lauren Berberts said the other day,
Speaker 2: Maga versus Marxism, And if I thought that a lot
Speaker 2: of our folks that went through the public school system
Speaker 2: understood what Marxism was, I would say that's a good
Speaker 2: way to look at the distinction. But at the end
Speaker 2: of the day, I think the border and the economy
Speaker 2: are the two issues that just completely clarify this race.
Speaker 1: That's right, because I think you're going to have some
Speaker 1: second and third tier concerns as we go to Dan
Speaker 1: and Parker on The Dan Kapla Show with Heidi Ganal,
Speaker 1: second and third tier concerns about you have boy that
Speaker 1: Harris seems like she might be this kind of ist
Speaker 1: or that kind of ist. But concrete concerns, Yeah, the border,
Speaker 1: the economy, and I'd say peace because Americans can see
Speaker 1: the world blowing up under Biden and they saw relative
Speaker 1: peace with Trump. Hey, Dan, you're on the Dan Kapla Show.
Speaker 4: Hey Dan, Hey, Heidi, guys, aren't we all?
Speaker 9: Hey?
Speaker 4: First time, long time. I went to the Douglas County
Speaker 4: Fair this weekend. Had a great time. I don't know
Speaker 4: if either of you guys went, but we went Saturday
Speaker 4: and Sunday, I went to the rodeo and I mosing
Speaker 4: my way over to the Republican the Republican Party tent,
Speaker 4: and you know we're we're talking about, you know, the
Speaker 4: election and the ground game, hew do you I know
Speaker 4: you mentioned it in the segment before, and it was
Speaker 4: concerning to me because yeah, I just walked up. I
Speaker 4: don't know anyone there, and I just said, hey, you know,
Speaker 4: where can I register to vote? Where can I register
Speaker 4: to be a part of the Republican Party? And nobody
Speaker 4: had anything there, rifying you're up absolutely right. I mean,
Speaker 4: think of the demographic that that's going to the fair,
Speaker 4: the Douglas County Fair, and they didn't have a clue.
Speaker 3: You know.
Speaker 4: Finally somebody brought, you know, a QR code. But that
Speaker 4: that me that that's something that needs to be front
Speaker 4: and center and the folks there at the tent should
Speaker 4: just be engaging with everybody that walks by there registering
Speaker 4: people to vote. That place was loaded with with eighteen
Speaker 4: to twenty five year olds, you know, walking around me,
Speaker 4: and that's that's prime pickings. And it was just it
Speaker 4: was really disappointing all kind of hang up and listen
Speaker 4: and let you guys.
Speaker 1: Thanks Dan, thanks.
Speaker 4: You on that for a bit, but but the ground
Speaker 4: game is critically essentially rounded, and I just.
Speaker 3: Think we just do.
Speaker 4: Such a terrible job here in Colorado. And I all
Speaker 4: bing up and most thank you Dan, Hey appreciate the call.
Speaker 1: Ye thank you, Not now, Heidi, You've been so involved
Speaker 1: with all of with the GP and and I've got
Speaker 1: a belief. I've got to believe that once this new
Speaker 1: leadership comes in, and all indications are that you know
Speaker 1: that peers that Dave Williams will be voted out, a
Speaker 1: new leader will be voted in, that that hopefully they'll
Speaker 1: be new energy and that'll help lift all boats. But
Speaker 1: is that just a fantasy on my part? Are the
Speaker 1: folks who strongly supported Dave and you know, opposed to
Speaker 1: this move, are they just going to be burned off
Speaker 1: forever and they'll never be unity.
Speaker 2: I do think it's going to divide us even more.
Speaker 2: I keep encouraging everybody to just drop it and let
Speaker 2: things be and focus on the task at hand, which
Speaker 2: is the election in eighty five days. I think that
Speaker 2: got my numbers right. So what we can do is
Speaker 2: ignore all the stuff going on at the top of
Speaker 2: the ticket, at the car I mean at the top
Speaker 2: of the car of state GOP and focus on your county.
Speaker 2: The county GOP letter leaders are really good. They're doing
Speaker 2: a lot of good things, but they don't have any
Speaker 2: help from the state, they don't have any help from national.
Speaker 2: So we've got to do this one one door knock
Speaker 2: at a time, one phone call at a time, one
Speaker 2: you know, one person at a time getting involved. So
Speaker 2: I would encourage Dan go figure out how to register
Speaker 2: to vote, go volunteer for If it's not the party,
Speaker 2: there's lots of other great conservative groups in Douglas County.
Speaker 2: I'm happy to help you out if you want to
Speaker 2: ping me on social media and just just download the
Speaker 2: Turning Point app and start getting to work. Knock ten
Speaker 2: doors a day, call ten people a day, send ten
Speaker 2: postcards to day, whatever it is. If everybody does that,
Speaker 2: we're going to be okay. But everybody's waiting for this
Speaker 2: big time solution to come in. If we a get
Speaker 2: Dave Williams out or b if you know, all of
Speaker 2: a sudden, Trump waves a magic wand and we have
Speaker 2: a fat, magnificent ground game, it's not happening. It's up
Speaker 2: to each one of us as Americans in Colorado citizens.
Speaker 1: So so much to talk about eight five five four
Speaker 1: zero five eight two five five text d an five
Speaker 1: seven seven three nine. Do you want Waltz to now
Speaker 1: stay on the ticket or would you rather see him
Speaker 1: leave and have that clown car effect? So we'll continue
Speaker 1: to talk about that, will bring you sound from the
Speaker 1: presidents of fiery press conference today and the debate challenge
Speaker 1: that he issued and what do you think he has
Speaker 1: to do between now and elect day to pull this out?
Speaker 1: You're on the Dan Capla Show.
Speaker 5: And now back to the Dan Kapla Show podcast.
Speaker 9: You know, we had to say woke, like everybody needs
Speaker 9: to be woke, and you can talk about if you're
Speaker 9: the wokeust or woker, just stay more woke than less woke.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, And there are some people in America that's
Speaker 1: their version of heaven. But I remain convinced not nearly
Speaker 1: enough for Kamala Harris to win. And so I know
Speaker 1: right now in the media is trying to feed this
Speaker 1: whole thing. It's over. Republicans, give up, stop fighting. You
Speaker 1: have no chance that this whole business, this whole business
Speaker 1: of trying to discourage turnout among conservatives, right it's like
Speaker 1: page two of their playbook. Remember Wisconsin in twenty when
Speaker 1: ABC put out that poll a week before election day
Speaker 1: that had Trump down. I can't remember the number, maybe
Speaker 1: fifteen or sixteen, and he lost by a handful of votes,
Speaker 1: and that was an ABC poll. So I sure hope
Speaker 1: folks aren't overreact to the polls right now. So this
Speaker 1: thing's a long way from over. And I've still got
Speaker 1: to believe in the end that America as a whole
Speaker 1: because I understand Heidi and Heidig and all co hosting today.
Speaker 1: I mean, I get it that there's some value and
Speaker 1: polls in this and that, but I also think it's
Speaker 1: a very human process in the end, and I think
Speaker 1: you have a lot of people who are just unwilling
Speaker 1: to say they support Trump to anybody, but are still
Speaker 1: going to vote from and in the end maybe a
Speaker 1: more powerful dynamic. I just cannot believe America is at
Speaker 1: the point where it's going to vote for a San
Speaker 1: Francisco radical and people know she's that she can hide
Speaker 1: all she want, right But you tell me if this
Speaker 1: is denial not just a river in Egypt. But I
Speaker 1: think Americans already know who Kamala Harris is and these
Speaker 1: rallies now with all this excitement, that's just some hardcrees
Speaker 1: in the base and they are excited about her, but
Speaker 1: America as a whole, I think already knows who she is.
Speaker 2: Well, Dan, I just told you on the break, I'm
Speaker 2: very glad I came in today and got an a
Speaker 2: dose of Dan enthusiasm because I was feeling down. And
Speaker 2: I understand that's what the trying to do. But man,
Speaker 2: you're out in the trenches. You're fighting to get people
Speaker 2: excited and donating and investing in these races. We were
Speaker 2: talking a little bit about Congressional District thiie with Jeff
Speaker 2: Herd running and CD eight, which is up north north
Speaker 2: of Denver, and that's Gabe Evans. These folks need help,
Speaker 2: they need our donations, they need our support, they need
Speaker 2: us door knocking. And I just can't say enough about
Speaker 2: how important each one of us as individuals is to
Speaker 2: making this work in Colorado and across America.
Speaker 1: And obviously President Trump knows that the campaign needs to
Speaker 1: get more active.
Speaker 4: Now.
Speaker 6: I think it's very important to have debates, and we've
Speaker 6: agreed with Fox on a date of September fourth.
Speaker 2: We've agreed with NBC.
Speaker 6: Fairly full agreement subject to them on September tenth, and
Speaker 6: we've agreed with ABC on September twenty fifth.
Speaker 5: So we have those three.
Speaker 6: Dates and those networks they're very anxiously awaiting that date
Speaker 6: and those dates. So we Havember September fourth, September tenth,
Speaker 6: and September twenty fifth. We have spoken to the heads
Speaker 6: of the network and it's all been confirmed.
Speaker 1: And how many of those and Ryan has some response
Speaker 1: sound from Harrison that how many of those do you
Speaker 1: think she'll accept?
Speaker 2: I think one. I think they're gonna they're gonna train
Speaker 2: the snot out of her for that one, and just
Speaker 2: pray that she doesn't say anything stupid. And we were
Speaker 2: talking about this earlier too, that she just has to
Speaker 2: show up and not act on and everything will be
Speaker 2: like whoa roses it.
Speaker 1: You could take my dead dog, my dead dog living
Speaker 1: happily on Rainbow Bridge right now, Rogie, you could take
Speaker 1: my dead dog and he could get through that debate successfully.
Speaker 1: Right if it's NBC or ABC, it's a controlled environment.
Speaker 1: Harris plays not to lose that there aren't going to
Speaker 1: be any any big developments on her side.
Speaker 7: Now.
Speaker 1: I think the opportunities is there for President Trump. President Trump,
Speaker 1: because the A or A plus Trump extremely impressive in
Speaker 1: the opportunity to reach a lot of people in the
Speaker 1: middle and make them more comfortable with him. I think
Speaker 1: that's what that debate is going to be all about,
Speaker 1: is his performance, not hers.
Speaker 2: I agree, and I do think if they have more
Speaker 2: than one, that's a better opportunity for us for Kamala
Speaker 2: to slip or to say something weird.
Speaker 1: In their terminology, which means there won't be more than one.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know that's what I'm scared of.
Speaker 1: So and I think Harris says she kind of confirmed
Speaker 1: that for you, Ryan.
Speaker 7: Madame, Vice President Donald Trump agreed to three to dates.
Speaker 2: Will you be participating in all three?
Speaker 5: I'm all in that record.
Speaker 9: I am looking for dolating Donald Trump. But we have
Speaker 9: a date of September tenth, and I hear he is
Speaker 9: finally committed to it.
Speaker 2: I'm looking forward about Bagatine.
Speaker 1: Yeah, right right. It's the old Peter Boyles line, if
Speaker 1: you knew where you were going to die, you wouldn't
Speaker 1: go there, right, So, I mean, come on, it's almost
Speaker 1: unfathomable that you could have what are we seventeen eighteen
Speaker 1: days since Biden was deposed and she was installed, and
Speaker 1: she still hasn't done a major interview. They're not even
Speaker 1: trying to hide it. No, I was just openly saying, Yeah,
Speaker 1: we can't put her out there because she say something stupid,
Speaker 1: and what are you going to do about it?
Speaker 2: And that's so frustrating, Dan. The media will not cover it.
Speaker 1: And this is where this is where my forty years
Speaker 1: I think as a trial lawyer comes in very, very handy,
Speaker 1: because you know, forty years of just learning early in
Speaker 1: my career. Listen, you can just trust juries. You can
Speaker 1: just trust juries to do the right thing, and just
Speaker 1: trust America. Trust America that it's not ready to vote
Speaker 1: for its own demise. It's not ready to vote for
Speaker 1: open borders. I won't go too far into the talking
Speaker 1: points because everybody's eyes glaze over, and I think of
Speaker 1: those talking points, only two or three really register. But
Speaker 1: I just cannot imagine America voting for open borders. War
Speaker 1: versus peace, you know, a bad economy versus a good
Speaker 1: but above all, Heidi, I can't see America vote being
Speaker 1: for clearly a San Francisco radical. Just can't see it.
Speaker 2: But Dan, we've got our own radicals here, and people
Speaker 2: vote for them and call.
Speaker 1: Head different deal, different deal, right, because I mean, you
Speaker 1: are mine too, and it's on all of us try
Speaker 1: to change that, and Lord knows you've done your part.
Speaker 1: But that's so different than the nation as a whole, right,
Speaker 1: I hope. So so when you look at those six
Speaker 1: swing states where you still have such a heavy influence
Speaker 1: on the part of working people, and how this turns
Speaker 1: out and everything else, I just can't believe those swing
Speaker 1: states are going to go for a San Francisco radical.
Speaker 2: I like that you say that. I'm going to start
Speaker 2: using that all the time. A San Francisco Radical. That's
Speaker 2: exactly what she is, but we pussyfoot around it and
Speaker 2: don't call her what she is.
Speaker 1: And everybody knows that. Carl and Hyland's Ranch are on
Speaker 1: the Dan Kapla Show with Heidi Ganau.
Speaker 2: Welcome, Hi Dan, thanks for taking my call in Heidi.
Speaker 2: First of all, thank you, Harley.
