Speaker 1: This is Dan Capless and welcome to today's online podcast
Speaker 1: edition of The Dan Caplis Show. Please be sure to
Speaker 1: give us a five star rating if you'd be so kind,
Speaker 1: and to subscribe, download and listen to the show every
Speaker 1: single day on your favorite podcast platform. The celebration continue
Speaker 1: four oh six.
Speaker 2: Glad you're here.
Speaker 1: If you're in Colorado right now, it is a beautiful,
Speaker 1: snowy afternoon. Maybe not as beautiful as you're out there
Speaker 1: driving around as I've been today, but in some areas
Speaker 1: not as bad as you might expect. To be careful though,
Speaker 1: obviously tempts falling and it's going to get icy, so
Speaker 1: please slow it down. Wow, it just keeps getting better.
Speaker 1: And I think I will probably open every show for
Speaker 1: the rest of my career, and I hope to be
Speaker 1: on air another ten twenty thirty years every show with
Speaker 1: Let the celebration continue. I am committed to that for
Speaker 1: good reason, because it should. And it's kind of crazy,
Speaker 1: right because my guess is, your life is extraordinarily busy.
Speaker 1: You have a million things going on. It's hard to
Speaker 1: slow down. I don't think we have yet fully appreciated
Speaker 1: the magnitude of this moment. And yeah, everybody knows it's
Speaker 1: a great victory. Everybody knows that if the Left had
Speaker 1: wanted to just be horrible, all of that, right, I
Speaker 1: know we got that. But just the depth and breadth
Speaker 1: and long term I'm talking thirty forty, fifty sixty, maybe
Speaker 1: one hundred year impact of this Hinge election, I don't
Speaker 1: think it's had a chance to sink in yet. I
Speaker 1: think I'll sink in a lot for a lot of
Speaker 1: folks over the weekend. But that's the reality of what
Speaker 1: just happened. And so we'll enjoy talking today and on
Speaker 1: future shows about all the different ways that's playing out.
Speaker 1: And you can see it each and every day, and
Speaker 1: we've got another ten examples of that today. So I
Speaker 1: really do hope that you take the time to enjoy this.
Speaker 1: I can tell you tonight, Ryan, I am going to
Speaker 1: I'm going to walk the talk, and I'm going to
Speaker 1: have the most fun that a married man can have
Speaker 1: when his wife's out of town, the single most fun
Speaker 1: of guy can have.
Speaker 2: I cannot wait.
Speaker 1: I'm looking forward to these two hours very much, but
Speaker 1: the two hours, the three hours, the four hours after that,
Speaker 1: honestly even more.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna watch the Trump documentary. I might do that too.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm gonna do is, I'm gonna grill
Speaker 1: up a big old steak. I'm gonna get a bottle
Speaker 1: of Johnny Walker Red, and I'm gonna sit there and
Speaker 1: I'm gonna watch Election night coverage on ABC. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: start there because those frauds, they tried to rig the election.
Speaker 2: Yep, to that debate that was rigged.
Speaker 1: And so I'm gonna watch ABC Election Night coverage, not
Speaker 1: every minute, but kind of the key moments because having
Speaker 1: sat there on Election Night and just watched it NonStop,
Speaker 1: I don't think I even went to the bathroom, you know,
Speaker 1: for four hours, I know as everybody does when those
Speaker 1: critical moments came. So I'm gonna watch ABC. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: watch CBS because they rigged it too. They rigged it
Speaker 1: two they it was an absolute, it was an absolute forgery.
Speaker 1: The sixty minutes interview and then what they tried to
Speaker 1: do in the VP debate. I'll watch me some NBC.
Speaker 1: I watched CNN Election Night and listen. I gotta give
Speaker 1: c an n and a plus because they had to
Speaker 1: be killing them inside. They had to be so despondent, right,
Speaker 1: as I would have been if Trump was losing. But
Speaker 1: they were uber professional. I thought on CNN did a
Speaker 1: great job all night. But then I'll save the best
Speaker 1: for last yest when like I'm falling asleep and I
Speaker 1: because you know, this will be I've had one drink
Speaker 1: all year, one drink all year, and that was that
Speaker 1: was on election night. But yes, so this will be.
Speaker 1: Maybe I'll start to doze off, but then I'll save
Speaker 1: MSNBC for last.
Speaker 2: So that's what I had to do tonight. The three
Speaker 2: s's Dan yeah, State, Scotch, Yeah, schadenfreud. Yeah, it's gonna
Speaker 2: be a beautiful thing.
Speaker 1: But then getting to some of the gift that keeps
Speaker 1: on giving. There's so many developments today and there will
Speaker 1: be every day because what we're watching right now, Other
Speaker 1: than in a few unfortunate pockets like you know of
Speaker 1: lefty lunacy like Colorado, you know, the rest of the country,
Speaker 1: the rest of the country is moving on from this
Speaker 1: leftist madness in very tangible ways. In the world is
Speaker 1: becoming safer overnight. So I want to talk about that stuff,
Speaker 1: but I gotta start with this, and not because it
Speaker 1: lets me say I told you so, but but I'm
Speaker 1: looking at the CNN headlines right now, Nancy Pelosi. Had
Speaker 1: the president gotten out sooner, there could have been other
Speaker 1: candidates in the race. CNN headline, Nancy Pelosi, Biden immediately
Speaker 1: endorsing Harris made it impossible for other candidates to enter.
Speaker 2: What have I been saying?
Speaker 1: Hey, I was saying that they were going to depose
Speaker 1: Biden and then be once they installed Harris.
Speaker 2: I said that was Joe Biden.
Speaker 1: He wanted the people humiliated him to lose, and he
Speaker 1: knew if he stuck him with Harris, they would lose.
Speaker 1: And that's why it culminates with Joe Biden wearing all
Speaker 1: red as she goes out to vote on election Day.
Speaker 1: Ride not much for subtlety, but I like it in
Speaker 1: that case. So I want to let you know that's
Speaker 1: what's coming from Nancy Pelosi today. But if you are
Speaker 1: looking at some of the most important long term payoffs
Speaker 1: from Tuesday night, because obviously, once again, just like sixteen,
Speaker 1: Trump and his voters saved America, but this time there's
Speaker 1: even a bigger long term effect. And here's one example. Okay,
Speaker 1: we America has been blessed with these two phenomenal among
Speaker 1: other phenomenal US Supreme Court justices and justice as Alito
Speaker 1: and Thomas. And here's what's going to happen. And again
Speaker 1: spoiler alert, because I know that I probably took suspense
Speaker 1: out of your life, and I apologize for that when
Speaker 1: I told everybody a year and a half ago Biden
Speaker 1: was not going to be their nominee. They were going
Speaker 1: to substitute somebody else to get tougher for Trump. But
Speaker 1: then Kamala Harris's Kamala Harris would start to fall back,
Speaker 1: and then there'd be nothing to stop the fall and
Speaker 1: Trump would win again. So apologies retrospectively for taking the
Speaker 1: suspense out of it. So spoiler alert on this one.
Speaker 1: Here's what's going to happen. Here's what's going to happen.
Speaker 1: The Trump victory is going to pay off in a
Speaker 1: thousand big ways that many of us don't even see
Speaker 1: coming yet. But two of them are this, Mark my words,
Speaker 1: Justice Alito, who will go down as one of the
Speaker 1: great Supreme Court justices in American history, the author of
Speaker 1: the Dobbs decision, which played out beautifully on Tuesday Night. Right,
Speaker 1: he was right turn it back to the people, as
Speaker 1: a constitution requires that people will work out the abortion issue. Listen,
Speaker 1: abortion law isn't where I want it to be everywhere.
Speaker 1: I want to save all these innocent lives. But the
Speaker 1: people are working it out. And the Democrats aborted themselves
Speaker 1: on Tuesday night with their slavish devotion to late term abortion,
Speaker 1: because voters figured out, even those pro choice voters said, hey,
Speaker 1: I can vote for the Republican who's a better candidate
Speaker 1: for governor, the better candidate for senator, the better candidate
Speaker 1: for president, And if I'm pro choice, I can still
Speaker 1: vote for pro choice on these ballot issues. So the
Speaker 1: voters have figured it out in a way that allows
Speaker 1: the issue now to be addressed by the publican. Once
Speaker 1: abortion can be addressed in the public square, then over time,
Speaker 1: the babies are going to win because Americans are inherently good,
Speaker 1: and over time America will and there have been many
Speaker 1: states that have already. America will get it right. So
Speaker 1: that process now has started. But very quickly voters have
Speaker 1: figured out, wait a second, that doesn't mean I have
Speaker 1: to toss aside these better Republican candidates. And the Republican
Speaker 1: candidates are winning at the same time. So here's what's
Speaker 1: going to happen just as Aldo, who authored that historic decision,
Speaker 1: will toward the end of the Trump presidency, resign so
Speaker 1: that President Trump can appoint his successor, and he'll be
Speaker 1: just short of a years old when he resigns. But
Speaker 1: Justice Alito, I predict, will go first, and then toward
Speaker 1: the very end of the term, but with enough time
Speaker 1: left for confirmation. I predict that that truly and he
Speaker 1: should be on Mount rushmore Justice Thomas.
Speaker 2: That Justice Thomas will.
Speaker 1: Also resign and he'll be I have my master right,
Speaker 1: maybe about eighty. Then he'll also resign so President Trump
Speaker 1: can appoint his successor.
Speaker 2: So I think that's how that's going to play out.
Speaker 1: And then think about it, President Trump will have appointed
Speaker 1: a majority of the US Supreme Court. Now I put
Speaker 1: a little laste account it because and that's how we
Speaker 1: say in Chicago little last year kind of because listen,
Speaker 1: Alito and Thomas have devoted their lives to this country
Speaker 1: into getting it right on the US Supreme Court, and
Speaker 1: they're going to want to make sure that President Trump
Speaker 1: is going to be appointing high quality, you know, originalist.
Speaker 2: Justices, just as he did before.
Speaker 1: So that's why I say Elito will go first, and
Speaker 1: it'll only go if it's clear that President Trump is
Speaker 1: going to appoint the same type of justice he had before.
Speaker 3: We had talked about this earlier in the week, kind
Speaker 3: of broaching the subject. And it's remarkable the timing of
Speaker 3: this that President Trump would have gotten three on his
Speaker 3: first watch, and quite possibly two here on watch number two.
Speaker 3: D And I'm trying to think back, even the FDR
Speaker 3: who served, you know, seventeen terms as president, if a
Speaker 3: president has had as many as five Supreme Court justice appointees.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I think there are only a few in
Speaker 1: American history. You have appointed a majority of the Supreme Court,
Speaker 1: a city majority. But these will also be young gun justices.
Speaker 1: So that's going to secure democracy and liberty in America
Speaker 1: for decades to come. So I believe it's going to
Speaker 1: come down that way. Many other examples just in the
Speaker 1: first few hours here of how the Trump victory is
Speaker 1: already making the world safer. So we'll come back, we'll
Speaker 1: touch on some of that, and then listen, we've got
Speaker 1: to get rid realistic about the nonsense that's going on
Speaker 1: here in Colorado right now.
Speaker 2: I mean, this is absolutely ridiculous. CD eight.
Speaker 1: We don't have the votes counted yet ridiculous. What the
Speaker 1: heck is going on? Much more ahead, you're on the
Speaker 1: Dan Capla Show.
Speaker 2: And now back to the Dan Kaplas Show podcast.
Speaker 4: You oblected that guy, but along with that, now you
Speaker 4: get RFK Junior, you get Tulca Gabbard, you get Elon Musk,
Speaker 4: and you get JD.
Speaker 2: Vans.
Speaker 4: You get brilliant people who aren't ideologically captured, two of
Speaker 4: them who used to be Democrats. One of them that
Speaker 4: probably knows more about environmental polluting and about the problems
Speaker 4: with pharmaceutical drug companies and health and the consequences of
Speaker 4: all sorts of pesticides and herbicides, ingredients in your food
Speaker 4: that should be banned in our band ino the country.
Speaker 4: You got that guy in there now and we got
Speaker 4: a real chance to make real change. This is like
Speaker 4: one of the first times ever where there's a real
Speaker 4: chance to make real, tangible change that's going to be
Speaker 4: for the good of everybody.
Speaker 2: Conor percent true.
Speaker 1: That is Joe Rogan five for zero five eight two
Speaker 1: five to five the number one of so many reasons
Speaker 1: to be excited and excited long term, and speaking of
Speaker 1: Elon Musk, a lot of reports now that he was
Speaker 1: on the call with Selenski that Trump had so it
Speaker 1: was Trump elon Musk and Zelenski.
Speaker 2: I'd love to get the details of that call.
Speaker 1: I think it's great Musk is involved in that administration,
Speaker 1: and we've already seen so many signs right that Trump
Speaker 1: and he's admitted it is one big regret about the
Speaker 1: first term was you know, some of the folks on
Speaker 1: his team and already off to a very good start.
Speaker 1: I think he's going to be swinging in the polar
Speaker 1: opposite direction and just have a kind of.
Speaker 2: A historically stellar team. Who do you want to see
Speaker 2: on that team?
Speaker 1: Throw that into the mix today eight five to five
Speaker 1: for zero five eight two five five text d A
Speaker 1: N five seven seven three nine In terms of some
Speaker 1: of the great payoffs already just seem we're a Cutter
Speaker 1: is kicking out hamas leadership. No coincidence interest that hamas
Speaker 1: leadership that has been there forever. I remember we ended
Speaker 1: up in a Cutter. We didn't intend to be there,
Speaker 1: but we got diverted to Cutter, spent our anniversary night
Speaker 1: there like a year ago, and I remember thinking, you know,
Speaker 1: there's a lot of stuff that's really cool here. But
Speaker 1: how could a country so blessed like this one? You know,
Speaker 1: have these hamas monsters here, but they're kicking them out.
Speaker 1: They're kicking them out. And so another real good step
Speaker 1: in the right direction left is trying to run so
Speaker 1: to Mayor out. Do you think they're going to be
Speaker 1: able to pull that off? They got to do it quick, right,
Speaker 1: So they are trying to run Justice so To Mayor
Speaker 1: out so they can replace her with Kamala Harris.
Speaker 2: Yeah, why not? Right, here's Bakari Seller's pushing that.
Speaker 5: I think that's actually a very good plan. I think
Speaker 5: it's something that should happen. You know that Justice Soto
Speaker 5: Mayor has been in a more than able justice. I
Speaker 5: know that she may be having some personal issues that
Speaker 5: she contends with while serving on the bench, but you know,
Speaker 5: I don't want Justice Soda Mayor to be another Ruth
Speaker 5: Bader Ginsburg in terms of staying too long. What does
Speaker 5: this mean for the for the dynamic of the court.
Speaker 5: The court is six y three. Now, if we're able
Speaker 5: to replace it with a Biden justice, it will still
Speaker 5: be sixty three. The possibility of Justice Soto Mayor having
Speaker 5: to resign or retire in the next four years is
Speaker 5: extremely high. You couple that with Alito and Clarence Thomas,
Speaker 5: then that means that from you go from a seven
Speaker 5: a six y three court to a seven to two
Speaker 5: court in terms of conservative versus liberal. And so I
Speaker 5: hope that Joe Biden makes the next ten weeks as
Speaker 5: consequential as he can. I don't care about drawing outside
Speaker 5: the lines or what Republicans may think about it. If
Speaker 5: this is within your purview, you can actually do it,
Speaker 5: and you should do it. And you know one more thing, John,
Speaker 5: is you have a hell of a vice president right
Speaker 5: there who has a legal pedigree to sit on a
Speaker 5: Supreme Court and let Republicans go crazy and hate.
Speaker 2: I'm even mentioning that option. Listen.
Speaker 1: I I hope Justice sodomy Oor stays because if she stays,
Speaker 1: she's likely to be replaced by a conservative, because I
Speaker 1: think there is a very very strong chance Conservatives are
Speaker 1: going to be in power for at least the next
Speaker 1: twelve years. And Justice, so to my ore now is
Speaker 1: seventy one. So yes, I hope she stays. But if
Speaker 1: they are going to replace her, please replace her with
Speaker 1: Kamala Harris, because listen, you've got Supreme Court justices who
Speaker 1: have big influence and impact on the court. And then
Speaker 1: you have those who, while a very valuable reliable vote
Speaker 1: on the left for that kind of what I view
Speaker 1: as judicial activism, they just don't have the chops to
Speaker 1: carry influence beyond that single vote. And in my view,
Speaker 1: no disrespect intended, come Harris would be that kind of
Speaker 1: relatively inconsequential US Supreme Court justice. Every Supreme Court justice
Speaker 1: is going to be consequential simply by virtue of having
Speaker 1: that vote and.
Speaker 2: Having that seat.
Speaker 1: But then you see some giants on both the left
Speaker 1: and the right, you know, who are able to have
Speaker 1: an influence beyond that. And I just don't see Kamala
Speaker 1: Harris as having that kind of influence. You know, you get,
Speaker 1: for example, a justice on the left, like a Justice
Speaker 1: Kagan or a Justice Ginsburg. You know, they had so
Speaker 1: much going for them in terms of talent and intellect.
Speaker 1: Justice Kagan obviously still as she says that they can
Speaker 1: have an influence beyond just their vote. Kamala Harris, now
Speaker 1: I think she'd be She would not be that type
Speaker 1: of powerful US Supreme Court justice. But again, I hope
Speaker 1: justice so to my our stays, because yeah, her replacement
Speaker 1: would be in all likelihood appointed by a Republican president,
Speaker 1: whether it's President Trump or further down the road, you know,
Speaker 1: whatever conservative succeeds President Trump. He got a lot of
Speaker 1: young justices. Justice Barrett, thank god, is only fifty three,
Speaker 1: and she is just phenomenal. Justice Jackson is fifty five,
Speaker 1: likely to serve on the Court for decades longer, as
Speaker 1: is Justice Gorses. You know, another giant already. He's just
Speaker 1: fifty eight. Justice Kavanaugh has been so impressive. He's only sixty.
Speaker 1: Justice Kagan is sixty five. Justice Roberts. Can you believe that?
Speaker 1: It seems like he's been on the Court forever? And
Speaker 1: Justice Roberts is only seventy. Justice sot of my oars,
Speaker 1: I mentioned seventy one. Justice Alito, seventy five, Justice Thomas
Speaker 1: seventy seven.
Speaker 2: So again, if you just joined us, thank you.
Speaker 1: My prediction is that these two historically great US Supreme
Speaker 1: Court justicees Alito and Thomas will will resign toward the
Speaker 1: end of President Trump's term so that he can appoint
Speaker 1: the successor. That's my respectful prediction. And both have been
Speaker 1: such great Americans. I expect that they will want to
Speaker 1: make sure that that the Supreme Court, you know, continues
Speaker 1: with with the strong majority the ones to interpret the
Speaker 1: law and not legislate.
Speaker 2: Robert and Lyttleton, you're on the Dan Kapla show. Welcome.
Speaker 6: Hi, good effing Dan. It's kind of one of the
Speaker 6: weigh in on your question on uh, you know we
Speaker 6: should be on the in the cabinet. The one thing
Speaker 6: I would say is, I think the biggest mistake that
Speaker 6: Trump made the first time around with cabinet appointments is
Speaker 6: people that were swishing and people that were kind of
Speaker 6: swampy critters. Yeah, not loyalty him, No, no, not at all.
Speaker 6: But I don't want to see cabinet members that are
Speaker 6: just blindly loyal to the president. I want to see
Speaker 6: cabinet members that are blindly loyal to the Constitution. But
Speaker 6: I also want to see people that are smart, that
Speaker 6: are tough, and that basically have the sand in the
Speaker 6: wavos to tell people you're wrong.
Speaker 2: And Robert, that's a great way in the arm.
Speaker 1: When I say loyal to Trump, but I mean is
Speaker 1: of course your first allowed sous to the constitution, you
Speaker 1: take the oaks. But what I mean is that if
Speaker 1: they're going to have differences with President Trump, and that's
Speaker 1: going to happen naturally, right in a human endeavor that
Speaker 1: they don't run to the press, they don't leak, they
Speaker 1: don't try to undermine him behind his back. They go
Speaker 1: to him. That's what I mean by loyal. But I
Speaker 1: think we're going to see. I think we're going to see.
Speaker 1: Whereas that was his weakness the first time around, it's
Speaker 1: going to be his strength this time.
Speaker 2: You're listening to the Dan Kaplis Show podcast. Jake Tapper
Speaker 2: has seen the Light.
Speaker 7: You heard me ask Congressman Gracia for his assessment of
Speaker 7: why Democrats was you know, I just have to say,
Speaker 7: I've been doing this talk now for many many years,
Speaker 7: many many decades, and I have to say, it's always
Speaker 7: a calms issue, right, It's never it's never the record,
Speaker 7: it's always they're just not communicating what they did effectively.
Speaker 7: Enough of the matter is is that there was horrific
Speaker 7: inflation and people had trouble buying groceries, and like for
Speaker 7: most Americans, a four hundred dollars problem is a big problem.
Speaker 1: Yes, there's no question about that, Jake, And that is
Speaker 1: very true, absolutely on the economic side. But you've got
Speaker 1: to go further than that, and to his credit, Jake
Speaker 1: Tapper has talked about this separately, which is wait a second,
Speaker 1: that this business of now the entire Democratic Party oriented
Speaker 1: around worshiping late term abortion but also worshiping the so
Speaker 1: called right of a man to be in a girl's shower,
Speaker 1: or in a girl's bathroom or in girls' sports. That
Speaker 1: is an absolute killer for the Left because first it's insane,
Speaker 1: and it's anti woman and it's anti child. Second, it
Speaker 1: exposes the Left for what they are, just wildly, madly,
Speaker 1: radically left. So the Left isn't going anywhere until it
Speaker 1: backs off that, and how do they get out of that?
Speaker 1: I'd love your thoughts on that. Eight five to five
Speaker 1: for zero five eight two five five the number. I
Speaker 1: still cannot pinpoint. I'm sure Ryan can because he's our
Speaker 1: little Wikipedia back there, but I can't pinpoint what event
Speaker 1: it was that it somehow caused the Democratic Party to
Speaker 1: just commit itself, commit itself totally, thoroughly. More important than
Speaker 1: the economy, more important than world peace, more important than
Speaker 1: the border, is making sure that men can be in
Speaker 1: girls showers and bathrooms and sports. When can anybody point
Speaker 1: to the moment when that madness started None of this
Speaker 1: is meant to be disrespectful to individual trans people.
Speaker 2: I've known several and liked them, and.
Speaker 1: As I've said, one of the people five top five
Speaker 1: people I respect most in life happens to be trans.
Speaker 1: But it's madness as public policy in the left is
Speaker 1: going to get buried by it over and over again,
Speaker 1: as they should. Where did it start? And how do
Speaker 1: you think they get out of that? How do they
Speaker 1: get out of that? Because they know they have to?
Speaker 1: Rick In Boom, you're on the Dan Kapitalist.
Speaker 2: You'll welcome Rick, Hey, Dan.
Speaker 8: How's the weather up there?
Speaker 5: Uh?
Speaker 2: You know it's not that bad. I'm worried about the
Speaker 2: streets freezing tonight though.
Speaker 8: It all happened. We're in a blizzard. Oh I you
Speaker 8: got in stripped down out of these wet coachs getting
Speaker 8: stuck with a tank of water going to the livestock.
Speaker 8: Oh man, man, that is this fun job moisture. Oh
Speaker 8: it's huge, this is this is a wonderful, blessed thing.
Speaker 8: Event is grand.
Speaker 6: Anyway, A year.
Speaker 8: Ago I was thinking of a cabinet posts or Trump's
Speaker 8: administration being calmed as I am, and which job he
Speaker 8: is the first thing that comes up, and the first
Speaker 8: name that came to my mind was Rudy He was
Speaker 8: only ten or fifteen years younger in there justice and
Speaker 8: then and just clean house.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 8: The next name that came up was.
Speaker 6: Ted Cruz, and uh.
Speaker 8: Uh, considering what happened a couple of days ago, the
Speaker 8: hard fought race to his seat and all the money
Speaker 8: they wasted on trying to keep him out, let's leave
Speaker 8: him there for a couple of years and hold back
Speaker 8: and then use him as a Supreme Court justice.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he'd be a great one when you went to that, well,
Speaker 2: I think he'd be a great ahd. I think he'd
Speaker 2: be a great Supreme Court justice. How old is he now? Though?
Speaker 2: He might be a little too old for a Supreme
Speaker 2: Court appointment.
Speaker 1: Because you want somebody in their fifties who's going to
Speaker 1: be there forever?
Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, okay.
Speaker 1: But here's the other consideration with Ted Cruz, though, who
Speaker 1: has been a very loyal supporter of President Trump, you know,
Speaker 1: after some original bumpiness understatement. But here's the thing. Well,
Speaker 1: I believe sitting here right now, JD. Vance will be
Speaker 1: the prohibitive favorite to succeed Trump. You're going to probably
Speaker 1: have Cruise in the race. You're gonna have Ron DeSantis
Speaker 1: in the race. You're going to have others in the race,
Speaker 1: and so Cruise may want at this point to just
Speaker 1: be positioning for that presidential run.
Speaker 8: Wow. I like the way you think.
Speaker 2: Oh, thank you.
Speaker 8: Yeah, I like the way you think.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 8: During the primary in sixteen, I was a Cruise fan.
Speaker 2: Okay, not Rubio.
Speaker 8: I was a Cruise fan. My god, you know I
Speaker 8: voted for in the primary.
Speaker 2: Be a great president.
Speaker 1: Great pray quick question, Rick, because I can't even imagine
Speaker 1: how hard your job is out there tonight. Which which
Speaker 1: of your livestock handle cold best?
Speaker 8: Handle the cold best? Oh my, oh my. You know.
Speaker 8: The cattle, they do pretty well. They just put their
Speaker 8: backs to the wind handle it.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 8: Milk cows. Milk cows, they've got a shed to be
Speaker 8: in and that's pretty nice. And we bet them to
Speaker 8: keep their udders clean so they're not, you know, nasty
Speaker 8: in the morning.
Speaker 6: When you milk them.
Speaker 2: Makes sense.
Speaker 8: But I'll tell you what. When you look at a
Speaker 8: mob of pigs and they will go out in a
Speaker 8: pasture and dig in. They make a little bowl in
Speaker 8: the ground and uh, with a burmer around it, they
Speaker 8: will dig a bowl and then pile in there and
Speaker 8: then shift positions through the day of the night and
Speaker 8: they will keep warm that away and they just they
Speaker 8: handled it pretty well.
Speaker 2: Is that where pigs in a blanket comes from?
Speaker 8: Maybe? So?
Speaker 2: So that is awesome. Hey call here everyday direct. We
Speaker 2: love talking to What's that something.
Speaker 8: Something you said yesterday about getting a vice president out
Speaker 8: in the country. For decades, I've been wanting to get
Speaker 8: the bureaucrats out of Washington and contribute them around the country. Uh.
Speaker 8: Trumpet said something about this yesterday and I only heard
Speaker 8: a brief smattering of it, but it was like blam
Speaker 8: in Colorado or I was thinking FEMA and Louisiana in
Speaker 8: all four stream and like corne et cetera, et cetera,
Speaker 8: Carmerce in Texas, at Florida. Just move them all over.
Speaker 8: I'm more important than just the bureaucrat. His family has
Speaker 8: to be there with him. Yep, kat them out of
Speaker 8: the belt Way where a family is exposed to the people. Yeah,
Speaker 8: realize I don't change their attitudes.
Speaker 1: I'm with you, Reckon, get my drift, I do, I do.
Speaker 1: That is great wisdom from the planes. My friend wears
Speaker 1: so much of the great wisdom resides. Thank you, Rick
Speaker 1: shure to appreciate it. And every time I think I
Speaker 1: work hard, I think of people like Rick, and we'd
Speaker 1: be lost without him, or we'd certainly be very hungry.
Speaker 3: It's a really good question because you had him thinking
Speaker 3: about that, which the lifestog handles the cold the best?
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, no.
Speaker 1: And I think it's just, you know, there are so
Speaker 1: many and I don't mean to get all cosmic here,
Speaker 1: but there are so many like proof of God points,
Speaker 1: and you look at animals, you look at their belt
Speaker 1: to handle all of these conditions, et cetera. But on
Speaker 1: the proof of God point, I think that and I
Speaker 1: said it at the time Butler happened that I did
Speaker 1: personally believe, couldn't prove it to anybody, but personally believe
Speaker 1: that God saved Trump and Butler. And now when you
Speaker 1: see and it's just been a few hours, right, when
Speaker 1: you see all of the tangible, concrete good that's happening
Speaker 1: now in America and around the world just from the
Speaker 1: election of Donald Trump, I think it just further enforces
Speaker 1: that belief. And you know, divine providence. I don't claim
Speaker 1: to understand all of it, or when God chooses to
Speaker 1: use it or not use it. But obviously that the
Speaker 1: folks who founded this country, the men and women who
Speaker 1: founded the country, they believed in it, because we don't
Speaker 1: have to guess. They put it right there in the
Speaker 1: Declaration of Independence. They ended it with it with reliance
Speaker 1: on divine providence. We pledged you our lives, our fortunes
Speaker 1: are sacred honor. So I think we are seeing that
Speaker 1: at work right now. Eight f five for zero five
Speaker 1: A two five five. And it doesn't mean Trump's an angel.
Speaker 1: I mean, and I'm no biblical scholar. I spent four
Speaker 1: years in a Catholic seminary in high school, but I'm
Speaker 1: no biblical scholar.
Speaker 2: But I do know this.
Speaker 1: I do know that that God uses broken people all
Speaker 1: the time. And yeah, Donald Trump's not perfect, but he
Speaker 1: is a biblically historically strong figure who in public life
Speaker 1: and in the stuff he's done in office, has been
Speaker 1: one of the most moral.
Speaker 2: Presidents in American history. You're on the Dan Kapla Show
Speaker 2: and now back to the Dan Kapla Show podcast.
Speaker 1: We want to hostages back and they better be back before.
Speaker 8: I assue in office, well, you will be paying.
Speaker 2: A very big price. Yeah, President Trump at the convention.
Speaker 1: Does that have anything to do you think with Cutter
Speaker 1: kicking out Hamas. I think that happened today, and Hamas
Speaker 1: say in the morning after the election that it wanted
Speaker 1: an immediate peace. So we shall see shades of Reagan
Speaker 1: in the Iranian hostages. Indeed, Yeah, A FI five for
Speaker 1: zero five, A two five five text d an five
Speaker 1: seven seven thirty nine. Listen, the point isn't that it's
Speaker 1: going to be all unicorns, puppies, rainbows, everything is going
Speaker 1: to work perfectly. That's not human life. That's not the
Speaker 1: way it was created or intended to be. Human life
Speaker 1: is always going to be a test. It's going to
Speaker 1: be a challenge. But what I think we can see
Speaker 1: very clearly now is this is a hinge moment in history.
Speaker 1: This was a hinge election. Good has triumphed and there
Speaker 1: is the table is set for long term progress and
Speaker 1: peace and prosperity and stability and fairness for all and
Speaker 1: fair opportunity for all in a way that we have
Speaker 1: never had in our lifetime.
Speaker 2: Let's go to the phone lines.
Speaker 1: Doesn't mean we can't screw it up, but it just
Speaker 1: means and opportunities here like we have never seen before,
Speaker 1: Dave and Kenyon City.
Speaker 2: Welcome to the show.
Speaker 9: Hey, I wanted to comment on Planet Fitness. I when
Speaker 9: Cloud of Fitness opened here in Canyon City was a
Speaker 9: big deal. A lot of people switched from the small
Speaker 9: ones through the big thing anyhow, and I had heard
Speaker 9: that they allow men in the women's restrooms changing rooms.
Speaker 9: So I just thought, becau is that true? So I
Speaker 9: called them. Now, this was about eight months ago. I
Speaker 9: called them. I said, I want to talk to the
Speaker 9: head manager, whoever's in charge of all the managers. So
Speaker 9: he got on the phone. It was during the day
Speaker 9: and I said, well, I saw this on YouTube. Is
Speaker 9: that true? And I'm thinking I don't think that's possible.
Speaker 9: He said, absolutely, that was his quote. Absolutely, we are
Speaker 9: not prejudiced. I said, you know, I have seventeen grandchildren.
Speaker 9: I probably have ten grand girls. You know that are
Speaker 9: How can you how can you fathom that? He says,
Speaker 9: that is corporate policy. Now I haven't called since, but
Speaker 9: what did this disgrace?
Speaker 2: Yeah, day appreciate the call on that.
Speaker 1: Honestly, don't know what their policy is right now or
Speaker 1: that's you know, national loco, whether it's changed, but I
Speaker 1: do know this. I do know that it's going to
Speaker 1: be an anchor around the neck of the left in
Speaker 1: most places in America, including many blue states, that this
Speaker 1: completely illogical, unjust anti woman commitment to letting men into
Speaker 1: girls showers and bathrooms and sports. That's insanity, blatantly anti woman.
Speaker 1: And that's why that ad of Trump's, that ad of
Speaker 1: Trump's revealing Kamala Harris's, Kamala Harris's pardon me commitment to
Speaker 1: taxpayer funds for sex changes for prisoners the most powerful
Speaker 1: political ad we've seen in our lifetime. So this is
Speaker 1: going to be fascinating to watch right how the left tries.
Speaker 2: To walk back this commitment.
Speaker 1: They have to, they know they have to politically, It's
Speaker 1: going to be fascinating to watch.
Speaker 2: Listen now for the interest of girls and women everywhere.
Speaker 2: I just want to see him do it.
Speaker 1: I know it will help them politically, but first and foremost,
Speaker 1: it's it's about, you know, fairness to girls and women.
Speaker 1: So that has to change right now. It's just going
Speaker 1: to be fascinating to see how quickly and how the
Speaker 1: left does it eight five urs five eight two five
Speaker 1: five A text nails it. Texter says, when you talk
Speaker 1: about salt of the Earth. Rick's picture should be next
Speaker 1: to the definition in the dictionary.
Speaker 2: That would be Rick from boone. He was awesome who
Speaker 2: joined us in the last segment.
Speaker 1: We need to make him a regular correspondent, a regular
Speaker 1: farmer rancher correspondent.
Speaker 2: I'm all for it.
Speaker 1: We have so many great farmer rancher callers. I do
Speaker 1: hope that Rick becomes a regular.
Speaker 3: And a bit of good news on that front. Dan
Speaker 3: the Mountain Lion Hunting Band was down.
Speaker 2: Yes, one of the few of those ballot proposals that
Speaker 2: turned out the right way. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Speaking of which, come on now, Jenna Griswold Prance is
Speaker 1: around the state talking about who we're the gold standard.
Speaker 3: Now.
Speaker 1: I know we've talked about a lot of different things,
Speaker 1: but we're sitting here days after the election, and we've
Speaker 1: still got apparently at least twenty thousand votes uncounted in
Speaker 1: CD eight, which fluctuates between maybe Gabe being down fifteen
Speaker 1: hundred or so, or down thirteen hundred or down eighteen hundred.
Speaker 2: But and I desperately want Gabe dwin. But no matter
Speaker 2: what the outcome is, this is insane.
Speaker 1: This is insane in the twenty first century, to not
Speaker 1: have these. It's one congressional district. It's not like it's
Speaker 1: the entire United States of America.
Speaker 2: Eight f five z five eight two five five. The
Speaker 2: number dan Ted Cruz is fifty three. That from Alexa.
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, so I would expect Ted Cruz will will
Speaker 1: not take a job in the cabinet and will wait
Speaker 1: to run for president. What a field that's going to be, Ryan,
Speaker 1: I mean, JD. Vansell of the Inside Track. But you're
Speaker 1: gonna have unless those guys defer to them, and I
Speaker 1: expect the Trump term to go extraordinarily Well, so maybe
Speaker 1: they do, but you're gonna have they'll be deferring for
Speaker 1: eight years. So you're gonna have Ted Cruz. You're gonna
Speaker 1: have Ron DeSantis. Who else do you see? There's so
Speaker 1: much GOP talent, But who else do you see in
Speaker 1: that very top tier because the twenty eight race has started.
Speaker 2: Possibly Sarah Hackabye Sanders. Boy, you do love her, and
Speaker 2: I get you. I get it. I'm in love with you.
Speaker 2: You married. Well, I'm glad you respect that. Of course
Speaker 2: they do.
Speaker 1: Oh you should you have to. Yeah, So there's gonna
Speaker 1: be a ton of talent. This nicky Hayley thing. And
Speaker 1: I did make a mistake a couple of days ago.
Speaker 1: I want to correct it now, as I was talking
Speaker 1: about cabinet, and I am a believer in team of rivals.
Speaker 1: I'm a believer in unity. I'm gonna I believe her
Speaker 1: in expanding the tent. So I was suggesting, maybe Nicky
Speaker 1: Haley for you an ambassador. She's done a very good
Speaker 1: job there before. Nah, I gotta take that back.
Speaker 9: I just.
Speaker 2: You know when I'm wrong, I'm wrong.
Speaker 1: And I thought Nikki Haley was like a or maybe
Speaker 1: a plus. And no, I just don't see it that
Speaker 1: way anymore. And Trump's going to have so many good options. Hey,
Speaker 1: when we come back, does the US need to go
Speaker 1: to war? Does there need to be military action?
Speaker 2: Right now? You're on the Dan Caplas Show.
