Do we have empty chair or Tyler? We've got an empty chair right now. We can still ask questions to it. Tyler, how you doing? Can we just show the empty chair?

There you go. That's great. And then the great news today, New York Times bestselling author Jack Posobiec. Jack, you have to now change your driver's license to New York Times bestselling author. It is now in your intro. It's in your bio. Jack, congratulations. That's a big deal. They'll never be able to take that away from you. You are in the 1% of the 1% of all authors. Tell us about how you were able to penetrate the New York Times Club.

well charlie i appreciate that and so look it's just a testament to the book on humans myself joshua lysek talking about the fact that we are going into and we are currently in and what we call an irregular communist revolution and the fact of the content stands on its own but you know

You know, really, I just have to thank so many people. J.D. Vance, of course, who blurbed the book. Tucker Carlson, who gave us a great platform. Donald Trump Jr., Lieutenant General Flynn, Robert Stacey McCain from The American Spectator. Charlie, you, of course, gave Joshua and myself a fantastic like hour and a half long interview just about the book itself.

And really, I think it showed the movement coming together, but also this idea of a new way of looking at, you know, at what it is that we're up against. And the response was tremendous as it was. So I will tell you, actually, that in the without revealing too much.

Looking at the numbers and the fact that we had Publishers Weekly number one on our first week out, we could actually see the book scan. Yet we actually in the week we were released, we outsold every single book on the New York Times bestseller list. And yet we were not included on the New York Times bestseller list.

And so there may have been some behind the scenes emailing and phone calling that went back and forth. And we were comparing data and we were looking at different things. And let's just say that I'm very glad that The New York Times decided to decided to be on the right side of history and give the book its due because it earned its place there. It earned it through hard work.

doing things the right way. And I appreciate the fact that they were able to come to terms with that. Plus, by the way, huge shout out, not only J.D. Vance having blurred the book, but he also hit number one himself in his own right with Hillbilly Elegy, a book that came out, I think, eight years ago when it was first published. But it is also number one that just goes to show there's a huge interest in conservative books.

and a huge interest in specifically these types of stories, which the, for lack of a better term, the new right, the new MAGA movement is putting out. And you're seeing that reflected in the numbers.

it's a huge deal jack that is very hard we did not make uh the bestseller list this summer and you did uh we did it back from mega doctrine and we did that whole push very very hard to do that um now jack you would agree there's a lot of gamification we know the numbers should have penetrated but you you were able to do it you were able to jump right into it and uh that's a very big deal everyone check out on humans uh it is a phenomenal book and the episode we also have up on the charlie kirk uh podcast page

Do we still have an empty chair, boy? We still got the empty chair, Charlie. We're monitoring the situation here. We're gazing at the chair right now. I can see through the back to the red light that kind of glows through the chair. It is... Yeah, we've got...

There are no buts anywhere near it. In Tyler's defense, he is hiring hundreds of ballot chasers right now, and he had a very good week getting rid of Stephen Richer, so he can come whenever he wants. Charlie, Charlie. Blake, what? Shut it down. We've got an update. We've got an update. We have a butt. We have an American flag shirt. It has – the bowier has landed. It is –

In the chair. It is in the chair. Tyler, we were just talking about you. We were talking about how punctual you are. Oh, yeah. This is my problem. They called this Mormon standard time. This is 15 minutes later.

You know, every cultural ethnicity in America thinks that they have invented being late. You got Cuban standard time. You got Mormon standard. Am I right, Jack? It's like every group. I guess that's the inverse of the of the of the Protestant work ethic. Right. So the WASP work ethic is you must be on time. If you're not on time, you're you're late. You know, if you're early or on time, et cetera. But all of the other, you know, the ethnic groups out there.

um are you know looking at that and saying yeah no we're not on board with that one

Which I can say because, by the way, the communities of color of the, I believe it was the Seattle and Portland area, have officially assigned the Slavic community to be considered a community of color. So as a proud, and I've always identified as a person of Polish descent, I, of course, can claim that I am on Slavic people time.

So Tyler, we want you to lead our conversation here because it will segue into the common stuff. But recap, Tyler, what happened with Stephen Richer, ballot chasing and the primary this week in Arizona was major news. Walk us through what unfolded here in state 48. Yeah. So I actually just got done. That's why I was late. We were on podcast with one of our ballot chasing managers who actually just won in city council here. And we were breaking down some of the numbers just from a general perspective and

The numbers are not yet in, Charlie, because they're still counting ballots across the state of Arizona. There was a law that was passed this last session that forced them to count through the night, but still there's people dragging their feet. So they're expecting that the final ballots will be counted this weekend and about another 100,000 ballots. But there was a huge tectonic shift that happened in this primary last

which, number one, a lot more Republicans showed up than Democrats to the primary. So that's number one. Number two, you had in Maricopa County the guy that is the chief elections official. His name is Stephen Richer. We've covered him extensively. If we remember the onesies, twosies with Bill Gates and Stephen Richer. I don't know if we have a picture of him. He was the guy that oversaw the disastrous election.

election results that happened in 2022. It was his first general election as the chief elections officer. And like half the polling places had issues in Maricopa County. They were refreshing everybody's memory. That's the guy. So he was up for a reelection and the internal polling had him up like 10 points. Yeah, that's him. There he is. There he is. There's the guy had him up 10 points in some of the internal polling. He ended up losing 10,

In a three-way race where another conservative actually split the vote. So this would have been an absolute...

Total walloping had it just been a one-on-one between Justin and him. But Justin Heap, who is a Freedom Caucus member here in Arizona, he has a 100% score on the Turning Point Action scorecard. He's a full Patriot. Took him on, challenged him, and it was the biggest upset of the evening, which was that Justin Heap defeated Stephen Richer by a pretty decent margin. I think the last check was about six points.

And so that was the that was the late breaking news that happened here in Arizona this week. Why this matters so much is because Stephen Richer was the face of a Lincoln Project style Republicans here, which are very few. They're really Democrats. He the Democrats really didn't field a legit candidate because this was the Democrats pick.

So he got a lot of Democrat support, a lot of Democrat money in the primary. And still the grassroots was able to with very minimal resources, was able to upset, spread the word and defeat Stephen Richer. So that's a big deal for a couple of different reasons we can get into. But it definitely helps Trump through November here in Arizona.

So I think that's first of all, congratulations, Tyler, and turning point action. Tyler, can you give some idea without any numbers, because we don't want to totally tell our enemy what we have here in Arizona ahead of November. But can you just give some idea of a ballpark scale of what we saw here on the ground in the primary and why that happened?

could be predictive heading into November. Yeah, so our job, Charlie, was really simple. We wanted to use the primary as a practice ground with our ballot-chasing army. And we have a lot of volunteers. We have a lot of full-time people that were chasing ballots and using this as practice, knowing that we weren't going to get...

Absolutely everybody out. Primaries generally in most places in America have turnouts around 20%. That's an average primary. And I'm just giving kind of a ballpark for most Americans just to have a good idea. A really exciting primary will sometimes have upwards of 30% turnout. That's a primary election in America.

Most general elections usually are like 60 historically have been 60 to 70 percent turnout. So that just gives you an idea. So it's usually less than half of who actually turns out in the general. We saw Charlie in some of our key target precincts close to 50 percent turnout in this primary.

We have some we're still waiting for the data to come in, so we don't want to get overly excited. But I think we will have a couple of precincts at least that break that. I mean, we're talking like in some states does that's general election numbers for turnout.

And this is Republicans, right? So that tells you a couple different things. One, we have a really exciting year ahead of us. That's a good sign ahead of this general election. But two, the ballot chasing works. Ballot chasing works. We hear all the time. Charlie hears it all the time at freedom at charliekirk.com. You can't overcome the machines. You're going to lose just like all this black pilling type stuff on the election manipulation the Democrats participate in.

And they're not wrong. There is tons of manipulation, not always the way that they describe it, but it's sometimes a little bit more in the weeds. But this election in particular, why I'm so excited about it is if they could have done anything to save Stephen Richard, they would have.

And they were unable to. They were unable to. So this is the most important part. So I want to interject for a second here. The national news media was lamenting the defeat of Stephen Richard. So we agree our elections are flawed. But if they are flawed beyond repair or flawed beyond any chance of victory, they would have done Venezuela for Stephen Richard.

Right, Tyler? They would have pulled out everything. What we were able to prove is that, yes, there are major issues. However, they are overcomable with good candidate, grassroots work and grassroots hustle.

That's right, Charlie. And this is really critical for those that are listening at home in Pennsylvania, in Georgia, in places where we've just been, in Michigan, where the election laws are absolutely horrendous, in Wisconsin, where there's so many of our grassroots that just don't trust the process, and rightfully so, that you can overcome things you can't win. Now, you've got to keep in mind, anytime that you oust an incumbent...

It doesn't matter if it's ours or theirs, meaning on the more moderate side or the more conservative side. It makes it organically more difficult to win in the general. It doesn't matter who it is because you have to be able to reintroduce this person to the entire society. And remember, majority of those people don't vote in a primary. So presidential year, you have everybody voting for the most part.

You have to introduce these people. So it is really incumbent upon the Republican Party on every major person. And I'll give Carrie Lake a lot of credit. She has been right there, right behind Justin Heap, you know, saying his name to as many people, giving the full support. But you need Trump. You need the campaigns. You need the state parties. You need the local parties all reintroducing this person and saying, this is the guy we totally trust. Otherwise, you run the risk of losing no matter who that is.

That is true everywhere. So that's not unique to Arizona. That is true everywhere. And so a lot of people who consider themselves conservative, MAGA, you have to keep in mind that when we win, the game's not over today. This is the starting line. We have to work together to be able to reintroduce to the entire Republican Party who these people are. So let me nationalize this. I believe that in a week where there's been some tough,

News items. This was the best news of the week.

that what happened in Arizona showing that the strength of the grassroots, the turnout, that is a very strong prediction. By the way, Tyler will reinforce this. We have hundreds of thousands of registered Republicans that do not live here over the summer. They live in Illinois or Wisconsin or Indiana. So the state actually gets redder and redder the closer we get to November. Now, let me now talk about Kamala Harris here in regards to this. I think it's important.

And then I want to go to you, Jack. So there is a fair amount of just doom looping that is happening because we grew so used to running up against a corpse, Joe Biden. Some people in the audience are not sure what's going on. The race looks like it's tightening and it is. However, this is not the time to panic. In fact, some of the fundamentals are actually very healthy. Let me highlight three key

different data points. Number one, according to a very, very trusted poll, Donald Trump is up 10 points in Ohio. If that ends up materializing, that'll be two points better than 2020. Secondly, a University of North Florida poll, which is a great pollster, shows Donald Trump up

seven in Florida, which is three and a half points better, nearly double the amount of margin of victory back in 2020. And finally, there's a series of polls. One showed that Kamala Harris is up in Arizona. That one's a little hard to believe, but another one showed that Donald Trump was up five, another Trump up six. The point I'm getting at here is that even though she is having a little bit of a honeymoon period,

that we are stronger than we were in 2020 in Ohio, stronger than we were in 2020 in Florida. Now, mind you, those are not the swing states that will determine the entire election. Those are solidly red. However, it is important to understand that this is by no means a collapse. This is not a panic. This is a little bit of what we could call Democrats coming home.

Against Joe Biden, only 72% of Democrats were voting for Joe Biden or comfortable with Joe Biden. Now, 91%, 91% of Democrats are voting for Kamala Harris, whereas 92% of Republicans are voting for Donald Trump. So what you have not seen is necessarily Kamala Harris winning over independents,

She's simply bringing Democrats back home. That is how I view the state of the race. This is going to be an annoying August where Democrats are going to get a lot of positive headlines, VP rollout, Kamala Harris's convention. But we must continue to define the terms, who she is, what she stands for, how she's unlikable, how she is mean, how she is fake, how she is phony and radical. Jack Posobiec, your thoughts on the state of the race.

Look, I think there's a lot of blackpilling going on out there. But at the same time, keep in mind that it was the movement that you're seeing, the enthusiasm that you're seeing is all on the Democrat side. So this goes to show you that, OK, guess what? We thought it was going to be this big blowout with Joe Biden on the ballot, and it probably was shaping up to be that way. It was Donald Trump versus a non-candidate. But people also have to realize that

And I think some people are, but I want to hear, and I was at the Trump rally last night in Harrisburg, and he spoke to this as well. He didn't talk about Kamala Harris very much. What he really focused on more was the system that we're up against. And he, of course, uses this

line again and again with, you know, they're not really after me, they're after you, I'm just in the way. So yes, I think he needs to frame the race as himself versus the system, that Kamala is just whatever current avatar of the system that they have.

That's how you get centrists back on board. That's how you get these independents back on board, plus the enthusiastic base support that he's already got. Of course, we saw that in droves in Pennsylvania and in Harrisburg and then driving up here to Butler, Pennsylvania, just flags and signs all over the place in western Pennsylvania. And so there's no question. The key difference, I think, really is that what they're –

What they're trying to push now is this new narrative candidate. And I really do think that there's a lot of definitional issues going on. JD Vance, by the way, has a great job of this. And I got to say that JD Vance fighting back against the narrative with his own narrative. What did he do today that we haven't seen him do yet on the trail? He put the flannel on.

He was down at the border. He was walking around looking like a member of the muscular class. It was the inner hillbilly was coming out. I've said this on Twitter a couple of times, but you had hillbilly elegy. Now we need hillbilly energy. Actually embrace that, lean into it, show that JD Vance is a man of the people, show that JD Vance isn't just talking about the forgotten men and women. He literally is one of them.

talking about stories about how his that when he was growing up and when his mother would take drugs or opioids before the fentanyl crisis and would take that and he would be sitting there as a little boy holding his mom's hand waiting for her to wake up

those are the types of stories that you need to be using. And I think it's fantastic that he's telling those stories. That's how you respond to a Kamala Harris. It's not necessarily by trying to refute her every point here or there because she's not making any points. Her whole points are vote for me because of my identity.

That's it. She's not pointing anything she's done. She's not pointing any record. But unfortunately, because of the chronic propaganda that's going on in this country for 40 to 50 years now, there are millions of Americans that will vote because of that. They'll vote just for the narrative. What J.D. Vance has started to do and is really doing at large, leaning into hillbilly elegy and standing up for a group of people that have been largely forgotten, which, oh, by the way, and this speaks to the strategic importance of the pick,

Those groups of people are centralized in the exact states that Donald Trump needs to win in order to return to the White House.

Yeah, and the fundamentals are still good, and they're not going to change dramatically. People are not happy with the direction of the country. They can't afford groceries. They're upset about the border. No matter how much Kamala propaganda that there is, Kamala propaganda that there is, that is not going to change. This is J.D. Vance with that hillbilly energy. J.D. Vance has had a great couple of days, and he's been treated very, very unfairly. We should get into the whole J.D. Vance thing.

Because he is the pro-family candidate. If you want to have a family, if you have a strong family and you believe in strong families, J.D. Vance is your guy. The Democrats do not believe in families and they never have. This is a wonderful clip. Play cut 136. The former president's comments yesterday to the National Association of Black Journalists where he said that Vice President Harris is, quote, all of a sudden black.

As a father of three biracial children, do those comments give you pause at all? They don't give me pause at all. Look, all he said is that Kamala Harris is a chameleon. She goes to Georgia two days ago. She was raised in Canada. She puts on a fake southern accent. She is everything to everybody, and she pretends to be somebody different.

different depending on which audience she's in front of. I think it's totally reasonable for the president to call that out. And that's all he did. I mean, look, she's running as a tough on crime prosecutor, even though she implemented open border policy. She's saying that she wants to support the police, yet she wanted to defund the police just three years ago. It's totally reasonable to call out the fact that she pretends to be somebody different depending on the audience she's talking to. Blake, your thoughts on this, on not just the J.D. Vance take, but the

The state of the race. All right, finally. I wasn't here last week, Charlie. I didn't get to talk about Kamala. I have a lot to say about Kamala.

I feel like I am going insane. Like, I am becoming a crazy person over the last two weeks. Like, from the amount of whiplash, from the amount of, I apologize for using this word, but gaslighting of me about Kamala by the press, by the internet. And you know me. I like to fuss where I'll be like, well, what about this thing, Charlie, that happened two years ago? But it's really bad with Kamala.

Like, she ran in 2019. I remember this. You remember this. A lot of people remember it. Like...

She ran for president. She got 15% off one of these media force memes like this, where they just talk about how great she is. And they talk about her a lot. And they got her up to 15, 16%. She was polling. I think she topped out in second place behind Biden in 2019. She's in that debate where she says that Joe Biden came onto her school bus to grab her and say like,

You can't go to the school with white children. And he dragged her off to the segregated school. That was this whole bit she did. And that little girl was me. And it was probably made up, at least in the details of how she described it. And so they really pushed her. And then she fell apart. She fell apart because...

Her campaign was badly run. It was badly managed its money. Staff were unhappy and miserable. And it was basically a total disaster. And the reason she got picked as vice president was not because of any special qualities she had. It was because Biden had to cut a deal to win South Carolina. And it appears that that deal was basically you will choose...

an African American as your vice president and he wanted to pick a woman for vice president so right down there you're down to 5% of the population 5-6% of the population is eligible for the vice presidential pick and there were basically 3 or 4 people on the short list

And we just throw that all away. You know, there's a hilarious story. I'll go back to you in a sec, Blake. But you know, there's a hilarious story there. So Joe Biden makes this pledge privately with Jim Clyburn, who basically runs South Carolina. And Jim Clyburn says, OK, you have to say in the debate that you're going to pick a black running mate. And Joe Biden's like, you got it.

And it's like three-fourths of the debate and Joe Biden forgot to say it. And so there's like that like 90-second intermission where they say, we'll be right back after a commercial break. And Jim Clyburn literally gets up out of the stands, out of the seats, and goes onto the stage. Everyone's like, what is Jim Clyburn doing? He just like bulldozes through people, goes right up to Joe Biden and literally is like, you need to mention the fact you're going to put a black person on the ticket.

It's like, oh, that's right. It's a true story. I'm telling you, it is a true story. And he's like, I totally forgot. And then he, like, mentions it. Like, if you can go look at the tape, you can pull the tape, like, right after the commercial break. Like, Mr. Biden, going back to you, what is your stance on the Green New Deal? And he says...

That's why I'll put a black person as my running mate. It's one of the greatest stories where Jim Clyburn basically just starts climbing over people. All right. So, Blake, continue. Sorry. It's a funny little side note. That's an amazing story. I can't believe I hadn't heard that. That's amazing. I've never heard that story before. That's incredible. I've got to go look up that. We need to pull that clip. That's amazing. If we can find a clip, that's incredible. So, yeah, that's all preface to say. So she has a disastrous campaign. She's in a car accident.

She has a disastrous vice presidency, and this isn't the New York Post. This isn't the National Review. This isn't Breitbart reporting this. The New York Times and Washington Post are putting out articles where they're just ponderously going, yeah, you know, Kamala has struggled to define her role in this administration. And then you dig into the details, and it's that...

Everything that's given her as a portfolio is a total disaster. She can't handle it. She does some cringe video. Looks like a mess. She can't keep any of her staff. They're all miserable. They all quit. They're all unhappy.

And just total disaster zone, which like no one thinks that if you had an open primary for the Democrat nomination that Kamala would have won it. No one was like excited to have her take over after Joe Biden. Nobody was thinking Kamala was the natural heir apparent. And basically they go with her because they're desperate and they think if we have an open primary, it'll rip the party apart and we'll lose.

And we're just suddenly chucking all of this just mass hallucination where we're suddenly going like Kamala is brat. Kamala is great. Kamala is definitely qualified for this office. Kamala definitely is not just one disastrous, like, you know, Peter principal promotion guy.

She just fails and gets promoted over and over again. And that's not even getting into the stuff where people aren't bringing it up because they're worried it'll just be received badly or sound wrong. It is 100% objectively true that Kamala got...

a job paying her $150,000 a year to attend two meetings a week paid or two meetings a month paid for by California taxpayers because her boyfriend who was married and 30 years older than her just, just gave it to her. And you can find California newspapers saying, Oh, it's really, it's really remarkable how Kamala was given this job. She's not qualified for, she's the companion of Willie Brown and patronage California. That's how it works.

That's her entire career. And we're just throwing this all out. And we're like, oh, it makes perfect sense to run this person for president. Just while you're on that note, it seems like there's so many conservatives that are kind of falling for it, though. Have you noticed this, that in your view of the whole situation in your self-imposed exile last week, that it seems like a lot of conservatives and right or right adjacent commentators are just going along with it.

They really are. I think I saw this repeatedly that it was like they're saying don't touch certain parts of Kamala's history. And I agree it's tough. There are ways that can go astray. But I do think.

With Trump, everyone he's gone against, there's almost been... One of his strengths is he finds that fatal flaw with a person and he picks at it over and over again. So with Hillary, it was crooked Hillary. She's the swamp personified. She's obviously dealing influence for money. Clinton Foundation's a giant grift. With...

Jeb Bush, that fatal flaw was Jeb Bush really didn't want to be president. He was kind of running out of obligation. He just represented this machine and he was the next man up and no one really wanted this guy and he didn't want it. With Governor DeSantis, frankly, he's kind of a dork. And Trump really hit at that. He can do that to Republicans as well as Democrats. With Kamala, I think the fatal flaw is...

She's fake. She is a scam. Everything you are being told about her is like the ad campaign for a bad movie or a bad TV show. I think I saw on Twitter someone joked that Kamala Harris is like one of those Star Wars spinoff shows that gets a 95% on Rotten Tomatoes, but then the audience reviews are 30% positive.

It's a lot like that. We're having all these people come out and pretending that Kamala is amazing when we have literally decades of evidence of people on Kamala's own side believing, no, Kamala is not amazing. She's dumb. She has no principles. She's not really qualified for all of the jobs that she is given. She's not good at running organizations. She doesn't inspire loyalty.

Like, look at Trump. There are people who have worked for Trump for decades on end who say great things about Trump. There's tons of great stories about how Trump gets along great with, you know, his caddies, with waiters. He's a generous tipper. There's a lot of people who have these warm interactions with Trump throughout his life. And there's like none of that for Kamala. People hate Kamala. Yeah.

So which goes to my idea, which I am pushing privately and publicly, and I've told the entire team, and I got to call Trump about this and give him my opinion, which I don't care if it's my idea or not. Do you guys all agree, yes debate, town hall format, the best for Trump to be able to interact and contrast with Kamala Harris? Does everyone agree that that is the best venue for him to be able to succeed in that format and potentially even gain votes? I definitely think so. I think...

You need Kamala. She can definitely do a canned line. She did it in the debates in 2019 where she basically, you know, she got her 60 seconds to go blast Joe Biden and the press probably tipped off. This is what she would say beforehand. We're all there to say like, oh, Kamala made a strong showing in this debate.

But if you can muddle that even a bit, if you do a town hall where the questions are, you know, they're phrased a bit weirdly because it's an ordinary person or you just you put her in a situation where she has to think on her feet and she cannot get away with recite a 60 second bit that she memorized beforehand. It goes badly when she had that OK showing in the first Democrat debate.

Everyone after that, she was a mess because other Democrats would take shots at her and she couldn't handle it. When she has to think on her feet as vice president, she starts talking in baby talk. That's another thing. They're just memory holing that she goes on a radio show. They ask her about Ukraine and she describes Ukraine and Russia like the audience are dead.

literally in second grade. And she does that repeatedly. She is not good. I would, I, this is something I've always defended Kamala Harris on. And I know that it's like, wait, what? No, but let me explain. So when she says Ukraine and Russia, like Ukraine's a small country and Russia is a big country. Like obviously that's very silly and childish, but,

There's something else that's more to the point. She's right about that. This has actually become a huge issue in the Ukraine war because Russia just has more resources to bring to bear. And they're like, oh, Russia's losing soldiers and Russia's doing this, doing that. And it's like, yeah, but Ukraine lost their entire army. So it's actually something where it's like she was kind of right, but for the completely wrong reasons. And yet all of the experts are completely wrong also for the wrong reasons.

i i'll say this i it's kind of interesting i think that you know i'll add kind of context to what jack is saying i'm a big believer in speaking simple you know politics is just i think we got the republican party got so into this whole like coke era like every state needs to have these think tanks and we need to talk like we're like stephen moore at every dinner table and like everybody hates that and there's

And I get your point that she's so obnoxiously stupid and silly and really has no idea what she's talking about. But I think more people take away from Kamala Harris that listen to her like, oh, she's relatable and I understand what she's saying and all of these things. And again, I think this is part of the virtue of Donald Trump, too, is that our side, especially the regular man, listens to Donald Trump and they go, oh, I get what he's saying. I get what he's talking about.

And unfortunately for America, Kamala's baby talk, simplistic overtones that she has with every single issue that's brought to her as vice president of the United States of America, a heartbeat away from the presidency. She probably should be the president right now because who knows what Joe Biden is doing in real life. But this is something that works, unfortunately, with most of America. Oh, man. And you know that's true. If you're...

Yeah, but you know it's true. We're so doomed. We're just going to have baby talk president and she'll have 70% approval and they'll just be like, I like. But hold on. I want to say, though, that there's a place for sophisticated language. I think part of the Vakes appeal was that he would use bigger words and increase vocabulary. I think it's actually how you present it. If you talk really, really fast.

like Vivek does or Ben Shapiro does, or at times I do, I think that anybody can be appealing to that because it's almost kind of becomes a performance sport. But if you talk really slow with big words, people just kind of lose you. They're like, what, what are you saying? You're using. It's like lead guitar. Like it's like not everybody can play guitar.

But if you can play guitar slowly, people are like, okay, fine, whatever, you're in a bar or something. But if you're like Steve Vai up there or Kirk Hammett going at it or Billy Corrigan or something, suddenly people are like, oh, wow, that's amazing, even if it's totally beyond their ken. Well, and I'll kind of add this. This is part of the whole turning point appeal, which is like, again, I think of it in terms of the conservative movement. Think tank language is

like Charlie said, has a place. The place just happens to not be in like presidential elections. Unfortunately, it has, I think it has more appeal in a primary setting where you have, you know, probably more aware and interested folks engaged, engaged. I actually think that this is the scary point to what you're bringing up. Kamala is a more dangerous general candidate than she is a primary candidate. It could be true. I do think, I hope this,

This is really just hope, I should say. I hope that... I think you can be more simple, more direct, if it helps that the sense is that you're being honest and maybe being serious. That's really what stands out about Trump. Trump kind of... He had this power starting all the way back in 2015 that he could cut through BS. And that was the directness of Trump that was appealing. He'd come down the escalator and he'd come out and say...

All the stuff they're saying is complex about the border. That's all crap. It's a bunch of criminals and rapists and drug dealers and murderers are crossing the border. Send them back. Build a wall. And that's straightforward. And it's not straightforward in a I'm talking to a baby sort of sense. It's straightforward in the sense of this is a clear moral issue. This is a clear policy issue. America's interest is clear, so you don't need to make it all nuanced.

Same thing with the wars. He would say Iraq is a disaster. The wars are a disaster. We're going to cut them out. I feel like with Kamala, she doesn't do that, at least in the clips that go viral for us. It's simple in the sense of she's doing a rehearsed politician bit

And she's not good at it. So she has to do like the I'm a I'm a fifth grader playing a vice president. Yeah. Except now she actually is running and we're going to be punished with this because we are a sinful nation. So let me just say one thing about this has been memory hold. So hard to find. By the way, I will give a hundred dollars. OK, you hear that, Ryan? No. Two hundred fifty dollars. I've spent hours looking for this.

And I'm sure you guys have had this experience. This was back in 2016 where it has been totally memory hold of this PhD who studies language. What would that be called? Entomologist, Blake? Someone who studies what? Like studies...

Language, you said? Yeah, not a linguist. No, it's someone who studies the roots of words and where they come from. I think that's an etymologist. Anyway, so etymology. Etymology. Anyway, etymologist, yeah. Yes, okay.

So they, it could be a mixture between a linguist and an entomologist. Anyway, so he was a PhD and this was back in August of 2016. And he basically went on some show and he said, Donald Trump's going to win the presidency. And everyone like the host was like, what are you talking about? He's like, I study language for a living and let me show you why. And it was this amazing five minute video where he just took a random Donald Trump interview. And he says, he does not use words that are more than two syllables unless he absolutely has to.

And the way he talks in the choppy manner is so digestible and it resonates with people in such a way. He said this is 40 years of somebody that has studied himself on TV and that has made his speech patterns in a the highest impactful way that a human being possibly can.

And he said this is this has been trained into him for 40 years. And for example, he'll just say, and the war in Iraq was a mess. It was a mess. It was terrible. It was awful. I mean, it's very precise language, hard punching. I wish I could find that video. It's so powerful. And he accurately said that he was able to talk to the common man. Do you know what I'm talking about, Jack? I can't find it. It went viral in 2016 a couple of times.

Yeah. Yes. Yes, it did. And he broke it down from the actual he he has like an equation where he's like, if it's more than X, Y, Z syllables over 500 words, you're going to lose the audience. If it's less than five X, Y, Z syllables, then you're able to maintain the audience. And he has this equation. And Donald Trump got like the highest or lowest score, as you will. And he says, usually the people get low scores are considered to be dumb. But in presidential politics, this is actually how you win. Yeah.

And that's why I think Kamala is so dangerous than a general is because her simplistic nature actually is a, is a huge asset, especially because she's basically like a Manchurian candidate.

So, I mean, they can literally just stick her out just for simple things, say things in very scripted format and then hide her. And this is like this is what they do. This is like the Katie Hobbs thing. Like Katie Hobbs never came out of her hole except for very few things here in Arizona. We have a few other examples of this where it's like when they don't trust you, they won't stick you out. That is actually the biggest best defense against Donald Trump ever.

that the Democrats could play. That is the game that they play. We know they're playing this. So to that point, we've got to try to force her to come out and talk more because the more she talks, to Charlie's point, is like,

the more she's going to lose people and the more people are going to resonate with Donald Trump. But this is like, this week is a perfect example is Donald Trump is outgoing long form in things, which is not his strong suit. Right. And we're talking about like this, this interview that happened this week. And it's like, I,

I'm not bothered by it. I think it's funny. I think it's hilarious. There's so many good clips. But the average American is only reading the short quip headlines and the sound bites that they chop up. It is really hard to sound bite a lot of what Donald Trump does is because of what Charlie is talking about right now, what he's referencing. One thing I like to point out with Trump is...

they'll say like people say he's like dumb or whatever and actually if you look at sometimes even when his language is confusing it's because it's almost it's like overloaded with ideas that he's struggling to like efficiently put out one that stood out to me even yesterday was when he was at the uh black journalist event is they made a quip about like the vice presidency and

why the pick matters and he kind of just says in passing he's like yeah you know one of the things about the vice president pick is it doesn't matter for the race as much as people think it does so you know kind of saying you pick them for the actual successor thing not just to win states and

And he's like, and, you know, in the past it hasn't mattered much except, you know, for LBJ who it mattered, but for a political reason, not an electoral one. And so like what he's actually saying there, and he doesn't elaborate on this and you have to be a nerd to even notice it, but he's basically saying picking LBJ mattered because he helped JFK steal the election in Texas in 1960, which is this stray fact Donald Trump has.

happens to remember and know about that he probably learned decades ago. Maybe someone, he read the Carol book or someone summarized it to him, or he just remembers the election and,

And he just sort of alludes to this in passing. 99% of the people are just going to think he's being confusing, but that's clearly what he's actually referencing. He's overloaded with ideas, and that's why he can be so effective, just going for hours on end. That's why he can actually sometimes be... He can just talk for two hours, and it'll almost be tedious because he's got so much stuff he can recall. He doesn't need the notes, doesn't need a teleprompter. He can just go.

Even Andrew says even even when Trump is telling a fib, he's actually telling the truth in like a very deep way. It's he. Well, but this is this is the thing is that that Trump Mac Trump tells macro truths, which is why they hate him. OK, the macro truths of Donald Trump are what is what is this NATO thing and why is it here?

That's like you're not allowed to say that. You're not allowed. Jack, what was the Scott Adams quote about Donald Trump's? He talks about like directional accuracy, like directionally accurate. So it's the idea that he or he also has a quote. I think he says, no, I know what you're talking about. He says Democrats take him literally. Conservatives understand him figuratively.

You know, something along those lines where he's saying that like people people know that he doesn't actually mean there's hundreds of millions of illegals spilling over. He's painting a picture. And then they'll go, actually, it was twenty five billion, not hundreds of millions or something like this. But people understand that he's using language as a metaphor, is using it to paint pictures, very visual speaker.

And they'll nitpick little things that he's made like that, you know, billions and billions or something like this over and over. But he's doing so to draw your attention to the fact that something is much larger than it should be. And it's always far more directionally accurate than when you're hearing someone try to piece apart those little things. And then also to your point of what you were saying earlier, that

this is why Donald Trump's resonance with voters is much stronger than, say, Paul Ryan when he was running around with his bow tie and his PowerPoint talking about why he was going to cut everyone's entitlement programs, because they can understand what Trump is saying better. And it has that emotional resonance with them because it's stuff that they've been wondering themselves or stuff they've been thinking about filling in the gaps of things that they try to understand. It's also one of the reasons why, by the way, and I've said this forever, that when you're

listening to Donald Trump, especially listening and watching, that you can understand him so much better because 90% of communication is nonverbal than when you're just reading a transcript. This is why they'll do this with everything, with the Charlottesville hoax, with the drinking bleach hoax. They'll show you the transcript and they'll say, oh, here's the transcript, but he's civilly admitted. But then if you look at him in public or if he's telling a joke or being sarcastic, which he's done so many times, you can tell from all of the nonverbal bits

body clues cues that he's giving that obviously he's me he's intending something as a joke or obviously he's being sarcastic or he's making a face or something like this and of course that doesn't transfer over into uh into direct text and so if you're just reading a transcript of it then you're you're not getting you're losing 90 basically of what was going on

I want to play this piece of tape here. Kamala Harris, who has yet to do a press conference, take a single question since being the nominee, since Biden has been forced off the ballot. This is a huge attack vector. But I just want us all to acknowledge that Donald Trump has changed the way that we all communicate. Can we all agree at this in our public speaking, Jack? I mean, we all now have a little bit of Trump aspect of how we do like body language. I know someone said that he started talking like Trump at the office place and he got promoted like twice as fast than he would have.

Oh, no, because it's alpha power moves. And what I would love to actually ask Donald Trump once he becomes president and say, so is this something that someone taught you or that you coached yourself through a series of self-examination? You know, I'd be fascinated from a public speaking standpoint. Norman Vincent Peale to who?

The preacher that he actually actually take him. I didn't know that. Norman Vincent Peale. I'm trying to look it up. He had a church in New York that his father, Fred, would take him to like all the time. I think part of it. I think part of the Trump. That would be interesting. I think part of it's the New York part of it's probably, I mean, just being around so many people. I think also just in real estate and doing deals and things like that. I think when you talk about a person like him,

He's very much, and Charlie has seen this in real time too, up close, is he's the kind of guy where he wants to get to points very quickly. He wants to get to the point in so much that there'll be a conflict, and instead of just discussing the conflict for minutes or

or hours with people. He'll just be like, get this other person on the line or get the other person in here and let's get right to it. But that's like a, that's a very common Trump thing. And that to me, that is something that is like really adjacent to how he talks, which is like, it's just like, he just wants to get to points. He doesn't have time for this stuff. He wants to get down, down to it. And that's how kind of,

What makes him who he is. And he reaffirms everything because when you're again, talking with people, sometimes in large groups, uh, you get circular, you forget. And so he reaffirms everything. He says it four different ways, four different times, makes it as simple as possible and gets right to the point. I'm now just imagining a pastor talking in full Trump mode. So just like Jesus, Jesus, he had the biggest, the biggest assemblies. They, they, they fed over 5,000 people.

With just a few loaves and a few fish, and they filled, what was it, nine wicker baskets afterwards? They filled so many wicker baskets. The entire Trump Hotel, all the taco bowls could have been made with just the leftovers from when they fed the 5,000. Just going on like that for ages, and I like to imagine this existing.

But you are right. He's totally infected the way everyone talks. Just think of the number of even just stray phrases that are Trumpisms just saying sad in response to things. That's a Trump thing. Many such cases, Trump thing. That's right. You're telling me for the first time, which might be one of the greatest Trump moments and underrate. I think it's one of the most underrated Trump moments ever where he could have gotten blown out in 2020 if he messed this up. Yeah.

And he comes off of a rally. It was a total setup, right? And you're telling me for the first time, she was a wonderful person. Like right there, it's like, all right, make or break. You screw this up. We would not have gotten a Supreme Court seat if Donald Trump would have just been like, oh, really? Wow, she was awful. You know, it could have been like, no, it was perfect. All right. So Kamala Harris refuses to take questions. This is a growing issue here. Let's play cut 138.

Thank you all. Madam Vice President, will you be meeting Evan Hall when they return? At least she didn't trip. Charlie, you're telling me she hasn't taken one question since she became the presumptive nominee? Nope, not an interview, not a question, not a remark, nothing. Since she has taken over, not a single vote, she has not taken a question. Meanwhile, Donald Trump goes up against the most vicious people that you could possibly imagine at the National Association of Black Journalists.

Jack, I think we need to emphasize this and force Kamala Harris into the press conference. She's trying to do the basement strategy, but you know what's not going to work? She's the sitting vice president of the United States. That's not going to work, Kamala Harris. There's no basement strategy. You have duties and responsibilities right now. Right now. Jack, I think this is something that we need to do.

when we have all those reporters reaching out to us saying, Oh, why did you mean by this? Or, you know, we were watching thought crimes like they do every week and say, what did you mean by this segment by that segment? Okay. Well, we'll ask you this. Why are you so worried about what Charlie Kirk and Jack are saying on podcasts and get, you're not spending any time with just an,

ounce of curiosity what the sitting vice president, who is effectively, as far as we know, running the White House at this point, is doing on a day-to-day basis and not answering any questions from the media after being handed the nomination on a silver platter. That's journalistic integrity. That's something where, by the way, if you're ever dealing with one of these organizations, that's what you always have to call into question. Don't say they're not being fair,

saying they're not being journalists. And if you can call into question whether or not they're being journalists and actually show them something that they are doing on one side and not on the other. And I'm not saying just one of those like, oh, you're being mean to Trump. No, no, no, no, no. I mean, you haven't asked a single person

Question, that's something that you can put over with the American people. That's something you can explain to anybody on the street and say, why isn't it kind of weird that she just got the nomination without anybody voting for her? They threw out the primary and the media won't ask them a simple question. Why is that? Why are they doing that? Why won't they ask any questions? And eventually you'll get somebody like a Jake Tapper who's so vainglorious.

has such high self-esteem, just believes, worships himself. You get somebody like that and suddenly it's going to get under their skin. It's going to get under their skin to the point where they're going to have to make it happen. Yeah, and this is probably the number one reason why I support, even though this completely screws up the whole Trump 47 stitching on everybody's hats. Yeah. I totally support...

you know, forcing Kamala into the presidency because this, this, that would for sure. I am deathly afraid they're going to pull what they do in 2020 with Joe Biden. Right. And they're going to find every excuse in the book. You know, we don't have that much time left. We only have seven weeks here. Right. Until early ballots are out in most States.

Less than that. They can run out the clock for seven weeks for sure, guys. And so the only way that they can't is if she is forcibly put into the presidency. That would be the only way. And that's the scary part is we don't know where Joe Biden and how he's actually doing right now. We really don't.

Well, so they would have been smart, to be honest, like they would have been smart to have her do some really like easy sit down interviews and just get it over with. They are now broadcasting how insecure they are about her. This has now gotten to the place where we are going on two weeks where she has not taken a question. She has not done an interview. They are now broadcasting. Oh, they're very afraid of her ability to have dialogue and discourse.

And all right, they now showed us their weakness. We must force her into the public light. I just brought – dug this up because I remembered reading this. So this is from 2019, and it was a dad whose son worked in an unpaid internship for Kamala Harris.

And I guess it didn't go well because it went bad enough that the dad wrote an op-ed for the union, which appears to be some local paper in California.

And he says, four short episodes I would like to share of his month-long internship for Kamala Harris. One, Senator Harris vocally throws around F-bombs and other profanity constantly in her berating of staff and others. The staff is in complete fear of her, and she uses her profanity throughout the day.

Second, as Attorney General, Senator Harris instructed her entire staff to stand every morning as she entered the office and say, Good morning, General.

He also says never once during the month long internship did Harris introduce herself to the son and he was in a staff of 20 paid employees like a Senate office. I will say I interned in the Senate. I was introduced to the senator that I worked for and he knew my name. So props to him.

And then the only acknowledgement was a form letter of thanks. And then this is great. Gregory, the son, was also given instructions to never address Harris nor look her in the eye as that privilege was only allowed to senior staff members. What? That might be... Maybe that's like exaggeration. Like they're basically saying don't bother her. And maybe that came through as like don't look her in the eye. So I can see that being exaggerated. Let me...

Hear me out here. Ryan, can you get this latest tape here of her coming out of the car? Now, I might be nitpicking here, but I don't think I am. And I just...

This is Kamala Harris coming out of the car. And just the way that she hands her phone to the staffer, can we get this up on screen as the B-roll? Where she just kind of like flippantly throws the phone to just quote unquote the help. You know, doesn't even say, you know, thank you or looked at the person in the eye. Again, I've kind of probably done this body gesture before, but she just, she comes out as if she's the king, the queen of the world. And she doesn't take a single question. She doesn't take...

A single response from the media, none whatsoever. And I might be over thinking this, but she just kind of just throws it there. Yeah, okay, thanks so much. And look, this plays into this narrative where you're... Blake, did I hear you right? You're not allowed to look her in the eye? That was what this op-ed said. Gregory was given instructions to never address Harris nor look her in the eye as that privilege was only allowed...

to senior staff members. Now, I can understand some reasons for that. I wasn't allowed to refer to Charlie by name until I'd worked here for at least eight months.

and then you had to take a test. It was Mr. Kirk, right? Yeah. Just kidding. Just kidding, of course. Before anyone clips that. We totally hazed you. I remember you looked in Charlie's... It wasn't looking him in the eye. It was looking in his direction. Yeah, yeah. It was like the ancient Hawaiian kings. If your shadow fell on his shadow, you broke the taboo and had to be executed. And then you had to go outside, take off your shirt, and we gave you 18 lashings. Yes, yes. Yeah.

Welcome to Arizona. Welcome to Arizona. That's right. So let's summarize this all together here. I thought this was actually terrific. I think this is President Trump at his best, mocking and humiliating Kamala Harris, how insincere and fake she is. Let's play cut one, two, eight. Because everything about Kamala Harris rollout, it's phony and it's fake. Did you see when President Obama...

And Michelle called. Did you see? Hello? Hello? Yes. Yes. Who is this? Oh, this is Michelle and Barack. Oh, oh. So surprised to hear they got four cameras in front. Oh, I'm so surprised it's on speakerphone. Listen, we just want to congratulate you on destroying Joe Biden. I mean, on the winning the

Hey, is Joe Biden going to, was that the phoniest phone call you've ever seen? How do you think, Dan? What do you think? Dan Muser, great congressman. What do you think? Was that a phony phone call? You wouldn't do it. You wouldn't get away in your district. You wouldn't get away with it, would you? She's fake. Do we have a, do we actually have the tape of that call? I believe we do. Let me check.

Yeah, Kamala strikes me as – have you guys ever watched the movie Terrible Bosses, is that what it's called? Horrible Bosses. Horrible Bosses. I don't think I've finished it. Yeah, kind of like – she does kind of remind me of that character, that type of character where it's just like – and everybody's worked for a bad boss.

just doesn't care about you that much, you know, is, you know, just you're kind of in and out all that. And it's just, it's associated with it. The hard part about her, and this is politics in general, is that there are some people involved politics that are exactly like Kamala have no reason to get where they get to. They're not really genuinely regarded, highly regarded people, but they just kind of just fail their way up. They, we talked about that all the time in politics and,

And that's truly who she is. She has just like failed upwards her entire career because of it's just convenience, I think mostly and adjacency to a lot of convenience. And she hits like she's been there to hit the demographic checkbox. She checks his box. Exactly. We got to replace Barbara Boxer.

Let's get a diverse candidate. Who's around? Oh, well, there's the AG. That's controllable. That's controllable. All right, so let's play cut 140. She's trying to be like this girl boss. This is so nauseating. It's just, I think this is repulsive, the way that she's like faking the whole thing. You got four cameras there. She doesn't even know how to hold up a phone for speakerphone. Play cut 140. Kamala. Hello.

Hey there. Aw, hi, you're both together. Oh, it's good to hear you both. I can't have this phone call about Dan to my girl Kamala. I am proud of you. This is going to be historic. We called to say Michelle and I couldn't be prouder to endorse you and to do everything we can to get you through this election and into the Oval Office. Oh my goodness.

Michelle, Barack, this means so much to me. I am looking forward to doing this with the two of you, Doug and I both, and getting out there, being on the road. It's so big. But most of all, I just want to tell you the words you have spoken and the friendship that you have given over all these years mean more than I can express. The sad thing. It means so much. And we're going to have some fun with this too, aren't we?

The viral reaction to this makes me think of how on YouTube and Facebook and stuff, there's a whole sub-genre of these kind of fake videos where it'll be like,

Karen is racist and then gets owned right away. And it's like all clearly fictional. Have you seen these? Like these basic morality plays. Yeah. And there'll be all these comments from people who seem to think that this is real, that people or people will be like, this is fake. And it's like, well, it's obviously fake. Yes. Yeah. Yeah, exactly. And this makes me think of that. Like, this is a transparently fake scene that was like shot for the cameras for the campaign. And then people are looking like, wow,

So amazing how there's this warmth between Kamala and the Obamas. I like Obama. He was tall. He was a great president. So, like, this could work. And if it works, I'll just want to die. I'll just want to crawl into a hole and, I don't know, eat a bunch of caramel popcorn or something. And then, ugh.

Just what a country. But it hasn't happened yet. Do you not like caramel popcorn? No, caramel popcorn is great. But if I eat too much of it, I'll look like Charlie pre-PhD weight loss. And, you know, we don't want that. So that's true. And if we lose, who knows? I'd have to go back on PhD weight loss. It could be really bad.

It could be really bad. All right. Closing thoughts, guys. Jack stayed. I mean, we were going to do all these other topics, but the race is just, you know, so hot right now. Final thoughts, Jack.

Yeah, two things. First thing, we can't in general let the Trump assassination go. We can't let that happen. We can't let that the media define our narratives. We need to do that. That's why I'm here in Butler, Pennsylvania. We're actually talking about potentially even doing another book this year on this very topic, which is kind of insane to do two books in one year, but why not?

And as far as fake Kamala, fake, fake, fake, fake, fake Kamala, you know, all I have to say is, Kama, Kama, Kama, Kama, Kama Chameleon. You come and go. Yeah! You come and go. You come and go.

It's great, Jack. So I want to tell you guys about if you have liver problems. In these challenging times, it's more important than ever to prioritize our health and the health of our loved ones.

Yeah. If I was a member of the media, I would be so embarrassed of myself and my profession that we, that my entire workplace hasn't asked Kamala a single question since she's gotten. And that to me would make me want to quit, like learn to code, do something different, something more productive with society. Cause if you can't ask the nominee for one of the two major parties, a single question before, um,

for vetting before they go to the convention. Like, what's the point of even having journalists?

Speaking of, she has like 92% staff turnover and always has. We got every single tell-all from like – we're getting people who are J.D. Vance's college classmates leaking emails. You mean to tell me that there can't be journalists who find every single person who's ever worked for Kamala and none of them have anything to say?
