Speaker 2: Sorry you got to put up with me for just
Speaker 2: this one more day. That's it. That's it. It's not
Speaker 2: that bad. We can get through it together. It was
Speaker 2: as always a treat listening to Uh, who's that guy
Speaker 2: who was before me, Brian Yueling anyway, Brian who brought
Speaker 2: up some great points about how it is Brian, isn't it?
Speaker 2: Yah would be absolutely yeah, good, all right? About how
Speaker 2: they're trying to already change the story on our vice
Speaker 2: president soon to be our president, Kamala Kamalah. That's it.
Speaker 2: I always have a problem with Kamala, and I love that,
Speaker 2: you know, it was it was she's not she's not
Speaker 2: the immigrations are She's not the immigrations are She's not
Speaker 2: the immigration Why? I was that a wonderful, wonderful thing.
Speaker 2: Let me let me take a moment here and play
Speaker 2: for you a clip from Media Research Group did this.
Speaker 2: They Media Research Center did this, and you'll hear what
Speaker 2: what they say about Kamala not being a immigrations are
Speaker 2: and then they go back to the exact same network
Speaker 2: before Biden dropped out to hear what they called what
Speaker 2: the liberals called Kamala I think you might enjoy this.
Speaker 2: Orders are respect quote unquote, borders are. Vice President Harris
Speaker 2: was not a borders are.
Speaker 3: Being time vice president and borders are Tama Harris facing
Speaker 3: some backlash.
Speaker 4: What he said about Harris and immigration was not true.
Speaker 2: She was never appointed borders are, and.
Speaker 5: This will be her first visit to the US Mexico
Speaker 5: border region since she was appointed as the borders are
Speaker 5: by President Biden.
Speaker 6: People don't have to counter the misinformation.
Speaker 2: You already hear folks talking about the borders are. She
Speaker 2: wasn't the borders are.
Speaker 6: President Biden tapped Kamala Harris Vice President Kamala Harris to
Speaker 6: be the borders are now.
Speaker 2: She wasn't the borders are.
Speaker 3: That's what Republicans labeled her.
Speaker 2: They were very critical of Kamala Harris, especially in her
Speaker 2: role as borders are now.
Speaker 6: What she's up against his soas line about her border record,
Speaker 6: calling her borders are.
Speaker 3: Kamala Harris, who was appointed as the borders are the.
Speaker 6: Biden team didn't declare her the borders are. They wanted
Speaker 6: her to work on kind of the root causes of immigration.
Speaker 2: There has been so much Chrisism against Kamala Harris. You know,
Speaker 2: she was the borders are calling her sort of the
Speaker 2: borders are, which wasn't necessarily the case.
Speaker 6: So the border if they weren't planning to address it
Speaker 6: in a major way, do not make her your borders are.
Speaker 6: She met with some of the Northern Triangle countries, but
Speaker 6: nothing has effectively changed.
Speaker 2: I just love all of that. So in each one
Speaker 2: of those you heard Afterbiden dropped out, and then from
Speaker 2: the very same network, how they referred to Harris as
Speaker 2: the borders are before before that. This is what I
Speaker 2: love about our activist press. It's not that it's not
Speaker 2: even that they choose sides, it's that they actively work
Speaker 2: for that side. Yep. I've never seen a pack of
Speaker 2: wolves jump on a politician like the left media did
Speaker 2: on Joe Biden. It was amazing to see that the
Speaker 2: same people who covered for him for three and a
Speaker 2: half years, as as a guy who was fit and
Speaker 2: ready to go and turned a blind eye onto everything
Speaker 2: you and I have been talking about for three and
Speaker 2: a half years. And then as soon as it's obvious
Speaker 2: the guy can't win, they go after him. And for
Speaker 2: years Kamala was the borders are. Let me just do
Speaker 2: a little bit more of this, just because it's it's
Speaker 2: so fun. Let me give you the the companies here,
Speaker 2: borders are. Vice President has CBS News.
Speaker 6: Are the time Vice President's CBS News Hares.
Speaker 2: Facing some backlash what he said about Harry CNN immigration
Speaker 2: was not true. She was never appointed borders are.
Speaker 5: And this will be her first visit to the US
Speaker 5: Mexico border regions. And she was appointed as the borders
Speaker 5: are by also CNN.
Speaker 2: People now ms NBC, what about the borders are? She
Speaker 2: wasn't the borders are. President Biden tapped Kamala Harris, Vice
Speaker 2: President Kamala Harris to be the borders are. She wasn't
Speaker 2: the borders are. ABC News labeled her. They were very
Speaker 2: critical BBC News again.
Speaker 5: Especially in her role as borders Are.
Speaker 6: Now she's up against MSNBC Border calling her borders are.
Speaker 2: Kamala Harris, who was appointed as the borders are MSNBC.
Speaker 3: Declare who the borders are?
Speaker 2: They wanted her to work on kind of CNN.
Speaker 6: There has been so much criticism against Kamala Harris.
Speaker 2: You know, she was the borders are CNN sort of
Speaker 2: the borders are, baby c She wasn't necessarily the case, so.
Speaker 6: The border if they were, CNN address it in a
Speaker 6: major way. Do not make her your borders are. She
Speaker 6: met with some of the Northern Triangle countries, but nothing
Speaker 6: has effectively changed.
Speaker 2: It's just it's just lovely. It's just lovely, and it's
Speaker 2: worth not. I know it's not a surprise to you,
Speaker 2: but it's one of those things you want to have
Speaker 2: in your back pocket for when when your friends go
Speaker 2: she was never she never the borders are. It's like, no,
Speaker 2: you you guys called her the borders all we just
Speaker 2: we're just using your words, that's all. Is it? Is
Speaker 2: it really that bad? Anyway? How how delightful if you
Speaker 2: have a thought three or three seven to one, three
Speaker 2: eight two five five seven to one three talk and
Speaker 2: of course feel free to drop a text. She is
Speaker 2: on a roll. She is on a roll. Let me
Speaker 2: read this from Axios HM HM exclusive poll. Harris opens
Speaker 2: up early Edge with young voters. Here's the question, if
Speaker 2: the twenty twenty four election were held today, who would
Speaker 2: you vote for if the candidates were Joe Biden or
Speaker 2: Donald Trump? And in that one it was it was
Speaker 2: fifty three to seventy four for Joe Biden.
Speaker 7: Hmm.
Speaker 2: How about this one if the election were held today,
Speaker 2: who would you vote for for the candidates were Kamala
Speaker 2: Harris and Donald Trump? It moves to sixty forty. Sixty forty.
Speaker 2: Harris is significantly more popular among America's youngest voters than
Speaker 2: President Biden. Well that's not a surprise, is it. This
Speaker 2: came from Generation Lab, a left leaning polling firm, so
Speaker 2: keep that in mind. Hmm. Former President Trump appears to
Speaker 2: be chipping away at Democrats in decades long hold on
Speaker 2: the youth vote, but Harris could be extending that gap
Speaker 2: once again. That's that's odd. Forty five percent of young
Speaker 2: people say they have an extremely or somewhat favorable opinion
Speaker 2: of Harris because they're stupid. If you're not young in liberal,
Speaker 2: you have no heart. If you're not old and conservative,
Speaker 2: you have no brain. So these young voters Gen Z
Speaker 2: millennial voters were key to Biden's victory in twenty twenty,
Speaker 2: they came out in huge numbers, favored him by twenty
Speaker 2: points for a Pew Research Center analysis. So it's not
Speaker 2: a surprise that this is going to be a big
Speaker 2: part of Harris's plan as well. But of course, as
Speaker 2: you know, there is no one election. There are fifty
Speaker 2: separate elections for delegates, and it's the states that choose
Speaker 2: the president. So that's going to be the issue. And
Speaker 2: I'm not at all surprised by this honeymoon phase with
Speaker 2: our vice president. It was going to be the media
Speaker 2: was going to clear a field for her. No matter what,
Speaker 2: it will erode, there's no question it will erode. The
Speaker 2: difference between Hillary Clinton and Harris is just one of exposure.
Speaker 2: People hated Hillary Clinton because they knew her for so
Speaker 2: very long. She was the first Lady and people didn't
Speaker 2: like her. She senator and people didn't like her. She
Speaker 2: became Secretary of State, people didn't like her. Why because
Speaker 2: she just has that personality that people don't like. And
Speaker 2: I know a lot of Republicans don't like hearing this,
Speaker 2: but it is the reality. People vote for candidates they like,
Speaker 2: not candidates that agree with them on policy. I don't
Speaker 2: understand that, but that's the way that is. We had
Speaker 2: so many years hearing Hillary's voice and watching her turn
Speaker 2: off crowds. She was just a delightfully unlikable person. She
Speaker 2: is the opposite of her husband, who could go into
Speaker 2: pretty much any place and they would love him because
Speaker 2: he just knew how to charm people. By the way,
Speaker 2: our own Jared Polis has a lot of that too,
Speaker 2: as did Hickenlooper when he was in his prime. Corey
Speaker 2: Gardner on the Republican side also has it. These are
Speaker 2: likable people for swing voters, but we don't have that
Speaker 2: much experience with Harris. Yeah, they know we're in California,
Speaker 2: but she hasn't been a national harp for that long.
Speaker 2: Clinton was a hard people just took a dislike to her.
Speaker 2: Harris has a cackle and a lot of people dislike her,
Speaker 2: but they haven't had years and years and years to
Speaker 2: get tired of her. That is my fear. Is it
Speaker 2: a worthy fear? Let me know? Three oh three seven,
Speaker 2: one three eight two five five And for Dan, I'm
Speaker 2: John Keldrek keep it right here six point thirty k how.
Speaker 8: And now back to the Dan Kapla Show podcast.
Speaker 2: Steve Matthews still doing a lot of stuff. I define stuff,
Speaker 2: John putting out new music that people want to purchase
Speaker 2: and listen to that front, not as much, but definitely
Speaker 2: touring still and making a lot of money doing it.
Speaker 2: I used to do lights for him, no kidding, Yeah,
Speaker 2: way back when, back when I had a real job.
Speaker 2: I used to I used to actually work for a living.
Speaker 2: It was it was Were you a key grip for John?
Speaker 2: I was not a key grip. No. I I owned
Speaker 2: a stage lighting company. Oh more than a gaffer. You
Speaker 2: were a gaffer. I was not a gaffer. I don't
Speaker 2: really even know what a gaffer is.
Speaker 3: Were you a best boy?
Speaker 2: I'm a best man? Hikes. No, I owned a stage
Speaker 2: lighting company, and I used to do lighting design and
Speaker 2: did a lot of a lot of rock and roll
Speaker 2: and did lights for them at Red Rocks, And uh yeah,
Speaker 2: they were. They were nice guys. I'dlike YouTube. They were
Speaker 2: nice guys.
Speaker 3: What you heard about the whole debacle with the dumping
Speaker 3: of the Pooh right in Chicago, that was them, No
Speaker 3: help me with that.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 3: There was an incident, Kelly, you remember this in the news,
Speaker 3: right Their tour bus was getting rid of some waste matter.
Speaker 2: I don't know. It was of something they were tr
Speaker 2: emptying their tour buses. Yes, bathroom And what happened?
Speaker 3: I think it went onto a ship down below in
Speaker 3: the lake Michigan, Chicago.
Speaker 2: I think it was an airplane though they were. They
Speaker 2: basically dumped the laboratory and it landed on top of
Speaker 2: the ship, on top of what.
Speaker 8: I had to have a ship dump.
Speaker 2: That word ship, she said, ship ship A ship made
Speaker 2: that very clear. There there was a banned bluegrass band,
Speaker 2: a folk band that I did like for are called
Speaker 2: the mother Folkers and their tagline was the most carefully
Speaker 2: pronounced folk band in the world. That's awesome. Yeah, all right,
Speaker 2: three all three, seven to one, three eight two five
Speaker 2: five seven one three talk turn our sites to the
Speaker 2: to the local world. This from Colorado Politics. Eli Bremmer,
Speaker 2: the former Publican county chair, launches a bid to run
Speaker 2: for Colorado chair if the party ousts Dave Williams. A
Speaker 2: group of former former Republican county chairs led by Eli Bremer,
Speaker 2: launched a bid today to replace the GOP chairman, who
Speaker 2: is facing a vote this weekend to fire him from
Speaker 2: the party position. God, I hope. So what an embarrassment. No,
Speaker 2: to be fair, I don't have a dog in this fight.
Speaker 2: I am not a registered Republican was for most of
Speaker 2: my life. I am not now, So so what do
Speaker 2: you think I got? A group of a group of
Speaker 2: people have now called for a special meeting to decide
Speaker 2: whether or not to oust to Stave Williams. My suspicion
Speaker 2: is they probably will be successful, at which case they've
Speaker 2: got to They've got to find someone to replace him.
Speaker 2: So members of the State Party Central Committee plan to
Speaker 2: meet in a church in a church in Brighton this
Speaker 2: Saturday to consider whether or not to oust them and
Speaker 2: the other elected party officials that's Hope Shepplman and Anna
Speaker 2: Ferguson that's the vice chair and the secretary if they're unseated.
Speaker 2: The agenda then includes electing a replacement for those officers
Speaker 2: to serve through this election. Wow. Dave Williams last week
Speaker 2: sued to block the meeting from being considered official party business,
Speaker 2: but the lawsuit has yet to be heard in court.
Speaker 2: State party officials have urged Republicans not to attend, calling
Speaker 2: the meeting illegal and fraudulent. Are we getting a little
Speaker 2: tired of that? Are we getting a little tired of
Speaker 2: it's a fraud. So apparently there's other people who are
Speaker 2: looking at running for the party chair in addition to
Speaker 2: Eli Bremmer. Let's see former Weld County chair Scott Scott, James,
Speaker 2: Kevin McCarthy, Don Yittberg. These are the people who are
Speaker 2: who are running in different positions. Also, who are britt
Speaker 2: a horn fun lady is looking at that. This is
Speaker 2: this is good stuff. This is good stuff. It shows
Speaker 2: that even Republicans have had enough of this, enough of this.
Speaker 2: So I wonder if you're part of the Republican Central Committee,
Speaker 2: and I believe there's what like four hundred ish of them.
Speaker 2: I believe, and I could be wrong, they need to
Speaker 2: get sixty percent of that of those folks to vote
Speaker 2: to oust him. And so Williams saying it's fraudulent, just
Speaker 2: don't go is a wonderful way to try to make
Speaker 2: sure there's not enough people there to get the vote across.
Speaker 2: If you were a Central Committee member, how would you
Speaker 2: vote on this? Three h three seven one three eight
Speaker 2: two five five Feel free to drop a text as well.
Speaker 2: Of course I'd vote to oust him. Not only is
Speaker 2: he an embarrassment, he's he's misspending the funds. Is this
Speaker 2: a guy as republic kids are trying to build? Voters
Speaker 2: told people to burn the gay pride flag. What the
Speaker 2: this is the let's get out and lose big team?
Speaker 2: Keep it here here in six point thirty K how,
Speaker 2: I'm John Caldery.
Speaker 8: You're listening to the Dan Kaplis Show podcast.
Speaker 2: I'm assuming a c D C.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, Brian Johnson lead vocal.
Speaker 2: There. I don't I don't get it. I don't get it.
Speaker 2: It's old time rock and roll. Now, that's not old
Speaker 2: time rock and roll. Helbrry is old time rocking. Well,
Speaker 2: this is just like whiny eighties stuff forty.
Speaker 3: Three years old. You disparage a c DC. The great Angus.
Speaker 2: Young, Great Angus Young. Can you imagine lifting up a
Speaker 2: newborn baby, honey to name him Angus? This is? This
Speaker 2: is This is the kind of name you can get
Speaker 2: away with when when your wife is so high on
Speaker 2: epidurals and painkillers, she doesn't know what's going on. Oh
Speaker 2: she hears, Angel Angel. What a beautiful name for our
Speaker 2: son Angel. All right, Angus it is. Did you have
Speaker 2: any wonderful names you wanted for your kids?
Speaker 3: I don't have any kids. But that kid did Angus. Yeah,
Speaker 3: after the great Angus Young.
Speaker 2: I always wanted to name one of my kids Dragon Gunner,
Speaker 2: but I had a very uncooperative partner in that, so
Speaker 2: I got nothing. You got a chance. That chance is cool.
Speaker 2: But you know, if I had my way, my son
Speaker 2: chance would be Dragon Gunner. And if not that, he
Speaker 2: would be named Elvis. Oh yeah, Elvis Caldera. Would that
Speaker 2: be great? Actually sounds pretty good. Elvis Caldera. Yeah, it
Speaker 2: would be great. And you know the grandparents would go,
Speaker 2: oh god, I can't believe you did that. But in
Speaker 2: a couple of years, maybul go Elvis, where's Elvis? Hey? Elvis? Yeah? Yeah.
Speaker 2: The problem is there are just not very many good
Speaker 2: boy names. There are tons of spectacular girl names, boy names,
Speaker 2: are they all? Yeah, let's name him Chad. No, there's
Speaker 2: just no good names out there for guys. That's why
Speaker 2: you gotta do something military and and macha like Dragon Gunner.
Speaker 2: Anybody wants to use that, feel free, come up and
Speaker 2: show me your baby called Dragon Gunner. I wouldn't.
Speaker 7: Uh.
Speaker 2: And so someone texted us, apparently the Dave Matthews band.
Speaker 2: It was a tour bus. What I said, killer bus
Speaker 2: Kelly doubted me. Yeah, and he also says Dave Matthews
Speaker 2: band also sucks. No, they don't. Well, they they're nice.
Speaker 2: I tell you they're nice. All right, let's get back
Speaker 2: to this, this little civil war going on inside the
Speaker 2: Colorado Republican Party in a lot of ways. I think
Speaker 2: it's how to put it meaningless, No, that would probably
Speaker 2: not be right. I think the problems with the party
Speaker 2: are so deep that whether whether Dave Williams leaves now
Speaker 2: in disgrace or after the November races in disgrace, it
Speaker 2: it doesn't it doesn't really matter. I don't know, given
Speaker 2: that there's only eighty days. Let me say that again,
Speaker 2: eighty days until ballots start dropping in Colorado. Isn't that amazing?
Speaker 2: Would a new would a new administration be able to
Speaker 2: do something in time that was meaningful? So Dave Williams
Speaker 2: took money that came to the Republican Party, used it
Speaker 2: for his own race, which might have helped if he
Speaker 2: only he won, but he didn't. And then the incredible
Speaker 2: purity test of being a Rhino and their Rhino watch.
Speaker 2: It's almost as if Republicans don't want to win in
Speaker 2: Colorado because Republicans don't want to win. In Colorado. There's
Speaker 2: a real problem with reality in politics, and it's something
Speaker 2: I deal with all the time in my role as
Speaker 2: running the Independence Institute and taking a look at the
Speaker 2: political time temperature of the state. And I have found
Speaker 2: that Republicans are among the worst when it comes to denial.
Speaker 2: You know, there's five stages of grief, was it? Elizabeth
Speaker 2: Koopler Roth studied that, and the very first one is denial.
Speaker 2: When you lose somebody, you deny that it happens before
Speaker 2: you can start to get angry about it, before you
Speaker 2: can start to bargain, before you end up finally having acceptance.
Speaker 2: The first one is denial. And I have found in
Speaker 2: my over three decades of political activism that Republicans in
Speaker 2: the state of Colorado, maybe not nationwide, but here in Colorado,
Speaker 2: in my area of the Woods, have raging with reality.
Speaker 2: They really have raging disconnect with reality. Now, I think
Speaker 2: it's a good thing to have a spirited and effective
Speaker 2: fight about when Republicans act like Democrats. And in my mind,
Speaker 2: it's pretty simple. When you raise taxes, you're a Democrat
Speaker 2: and we should we should oust you. We don't need
Speaker 2: Republicans to grow government just a little more slowly than
Speaker 2: the folks on the left. But on other issues it's
Speaker 2: usually been a wide tent that works. Why because we
Speaker 2: need the social conservatives and the fiscal conservatives and the
Speaker 2: libertarian leading Republicans and those people who are concerned about
Speaker 2: crime and those people who are concerned about society and
Speaker 2: all the rest to join together to beat a well
Speaker 2: formed leftist team. But when you have nothing but purity
Speaker 2: test after purity test, and especially if that purity test
Speaker 2: is built on hero worship, that you have to you
Speaker 2: have to not only love Donald Trump, you have to
Speaker 2: agree with him that the election was stolen. And if
Speaker 2: you're not doing that, well, then you're just a rhino.
Speaker 2: I used to think that a rhino was someone who
Speaker 2: grew the size of government, and Republicans have many, many
Speaker 2: of them, but that's changed. It's it's this odd thing
Speaker 2: that if you don't accept denying things, you won't be loved.
Speaker 2: You'll be put on the rhino watch list. Are you
Speaker 2: on the rhino watch list? John? I am? Yeah, it was.
Speaker 2: It was hysterical. Actually, not me personally. The Independence Institute,
Speaker 2: the organization that has brought us tabor and term limits
Speaker 2: and flat taxes and concealed carry permits and school choice
Speaker 2: and charter schools, and I can just keep going down
Speaker 2: the rue. The organization that has fought for thirty years
Speaker 2: against tax increases is a rhino organization and on the
Speaker 2: Rhino watch list. Now, really, what that had to do
Speaker 2: with was Dave Williams hit me up for money for
Speaker 2: one of their lawsuits. That they wanted us to put
Speaker 2: money into one of their failing lawsuits. I basically said, no,
Speaker 2: that's not our mission and I'm not spending our donors'
Speaker 2: money doing that. And the next week, surprise, the Independent
Speaker 2: Institute was a rhino organization, the which is just laughable.
Speaker 2: So you're looking at these these people who have been
Speaker 2: good conservatives. I look at our friend Christy Burton Brown
Speaker 2: and why you and I might have policy differences. This
Speaker 2: is not a woman I would call a rhino. A
Speaker 2: woman who several times tried to put a personhood amendment
Speaker 2: and get it through, get it through to vote. She's
Speaker 2: the one who spearheaded a late term abortion and she's
Speaker 2: a rhino. It makes it really makes you wonder. So
Speaker 2: the party is out of touch and watching it burn
Speaker 2: down to the ground is sad. But I think it
Speaker 2: has to happen. There is no way the conservative movement
Speaker 2: politically is going to get any better until you clean
Speaker 2: up the system. So whether he goes now or whether
Speaker 2: he goes later, I don't think it matters a lot.
Speaker 2: This is going to be This is going to be
Speaker 2: a horrific election for Republicans in Colorado. Keep in mind,
Speaker 2: you've got both Donald Trump, well hated by swing voters,
Speaker 2: and abortion beloved by swing voters, on the ballot this year.
Speaker 2: That is, you have the presidential ballot, but there's also
Speaker 2: an initiative to put protecting abortion rights into the state constitution.
Speaker 2: This is not going to be pretty. Who knows, maybe
Speaker 2: Republicans could win back a seat or two. That would
Speaker 2: be a step in the right direction. They should be
Speaker 2: able to pick up the seat up in Weld County
Speaker 2: that's held by Kevin Priola, who turned Democrat and out
Speaker 2: of step. That should be a very easy pickup. But
Speaker 2: we'll see about the other ones. If you're going to
Speaker 2: this special meeting that's been called that Dave Williams says
Speaker 2: is illegal and fraudulent, how would you vote? And if
Speaker 2: and when they vote to you're no longer the party chairman.
Speaker 2: What happens when he doesn't accept the vote? When he
Speaker 2: pulls his own Donald Trump, He's already saying that this
Speaker 2: meeting that has been brought, the special meeting that has
Speaker 2: been brought by members of the Central Committee, which apparently
Speaker 2: they can do by the bylaws, is he doesn't recognize it,
Speaker 2: and he doesn't recognize it. He's not going to recognize
Speaker 2: them yanking him from office. Then what happens? Do you
Speaker 2: then have a shadow Republican Party? How does that work?
Speaker 2: If you have an answer, I'd really love to know.
Speaker 2: Three h three seven three eight two five five What happens?
Speaker 2: Should they oust Dave Williams? And he goes, yeah, that
Speaker 2: doesn't matter because the vote was fraudulent, and therefore I'm
Speaker 2: still the guy. I am not giving you the keys
Speaker 2: to the car. I'm not giving you the codes to
Speaker 2: the bank account. I'm not giving you our checkbook. You know,
Speaker 2: come and take it. Then what happens three three seven
Speaker 2: one three eight two five five I'm John Kel Derek,
Speaker 2: keep it right here? Six point thirty k how.
Speaker 8: And now back to the Dan Kapla Show podcast.
Speaker 2: Back when rock and roll songs could happen.
Speaker 7: In the backfield there you go. It would be great
Speaker 7: if ac DC did that.
Speaker 2: I'd like to see that Nash up.
Speaker 4: Actually yeah, from the text line, John, the Republicans want
Speaker 4: to be part of the ABC wild world of Sports,
Speaker 4: actually wide world of sports with a tagline about snatching
Speaker 4: defeat from the jaws of victory.
Speaker 2: How very very true. Still no takers on this. I'm
Speaker 2: surprised if you you are in the Republican Central Committee,
Speaker 2: would you vote to oust the chairman Dave Williams three
Speaker 2: or three seven to one, three eight, two five five,
Speaker 2: So no one's answered this question. Williams says this special
Speaker 2: meeting that has been called is fraudulent, that it's outside
Speaker 2: the bounds of of the party. It's not a real meeting.
Speaker 2: So assuming that that is not real meeting, they vote
Speaker 2: to oust him, and he says, I said it wasn't
Speaker 2: a real meeting. Who decides it probably goes to a
Speaker 2: court hearing. If it goes to a court hearing, it's
Speaker 2: gonna take longer than what it's going to take to
Speaker 2: get a new election anyway. So the proof of the
Speaker 2: put in is how many Republicans win. That's that's what
Speaker 2: the Republican partners to do. Traditionally they would run primaries
Speaker 2: and those primaries winners would then be get a lot
Speaker 2: of help from from the Republican Party. Now the Republican
Speaker 2: Party is playing in the primaries stealing money. I guess
Speaker 2: you couldn't say it's stealing because they got it, taking
Speaker 2: money and playing favorites in the primary.
Speaker 3: Real quiet of yeah, this actually happened in my home
Speaker 3: state of Michigan. Almost an identical script in which Christina
Speaker 3: Karamo is one of these very maga election denying type
Speaker 3: Republicans was the chair and they were looking to oust
Speaker 3: her and replace her with a longtime congressman he may
Speaker 3: have even heard of him, more establishment ty Pete Hookstra
Speaker 3: and the National The RNC had to step in and
Speaker 3: basically settle the dispute because to your point, Karama was
Speaker 3: refusing to leave that. She's like, no, you can't just
Speaker 3: ouse me.
Speaker 2: And did the Nationals come in and say no, you're out? Yes?
Speaker 3: And Hookstra right now is the chair of the Michigan
Speaker 3: Republican Party.
Speaker 2: Why do I have a feeling that even if the
Speaker 2: RNC came into Colorado and said, Dave, you're no longer
Speaker 2: the chair, Wait, how do you hand over the checkbook.
Speaker 2: Does he still have money? Right? And remember how he
Speaker 2: got this money. The money really wasn't from fundraising. The
Speaker 2: money was getting some money from the nationals, but also

Speaker 2: fifty to forty grand, and everybody gives you forty grand.
Speaker 2: Before you know it, you got hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Speaker 3: What if Trump himself came in with Laura and said, Dave,
Speaker 3: if I had would even listen.
Speaker 2: To Dave, Dave, you're fired. I don't you know. The
Speaker 2: reality is again, I know Republicans don't like to deal
Speaker 2: with the reality. The reality is Trump has no shot
Speaker 2: in Colorado, and therefore he's not gonna really come in
Speaker 2: here to help Dave Williams or to hurt Dave Williams.
Speaker 2: My guess is he doesn't care. That would be my guess.
Speaker 2: So help me out with this. If Dave Williams doesn't
Speaker 2: leave office after he's kicked out, what should happen? I'm
Speaker 2: John Caldera three oh three seven one three eight two
Speaker 2: five five seven one three tough, keep it right here.
Speaker 2: You're on six point thirty. K out
