Gas Prices Decided This Election

WEBVTT
00:00:10.880 --> 00:00:18.079
The voters sent a message that gas and diesel matters in an election.
00:00:18.480 --> 00:00:20.239
And promises that Mr.
00:00:20.399 --> 00:00:25.679
Trump made about keeping things affordable unfortunately kind of got in the way.
00:00:26.160 --> 00:00:32.479
Message sent, message received, and now starting in January.
00:00:35.119 --> 00:00:35.759
Stuart.
00:00:37.280 --> 00:00:37.600
Go.
00:00:38.640 --> 00:00:40.159
All right, let's rock.
00:00:40.479 --> 00:00:43.600
Democrats sweep both chambers of Congress.
00:00:46.960 --> 00:00:47.840
Minters.
00:00:48.159 --> 00:00:52.320
President Trump stated he's willing to accept those results.
00:00:52.719 --> 00:00:55.200
Wow, pretty binary.
00:00:55.280 --> 00:00:56.079
Isn't that a response?
00:00:57.119 --> 00:01:00.079
I mean, I guess I accept those results.
00:01:00.399 --> 00:01:07.359
A president who accepts a landslide loss gratefully is a president who respects the process.
00:01:07.840 --> 00:01:18.000
Contrast that with four years of Democrats screaming threats to democracy every time a Republican so much as questioned a ballot drop box.
00:01:18.400 --> 00:01:26.719
But let's not pretend this was some grand ideological awakening by the American electorate.
00:01:26.959 --> 00:01:43.920
This was a kitchen table revolt over gas prices and media is about to spend the next 48 hours dressing up a pocketbook backlash as a referendum on democracy and decency because the narrative sells better than the truth.
00:01:49.280 --> 00:01:53.120
So, and we don't have to guess why voters revolted.
00:01:53.280 --> 00:01:57.680
The Blaze has the exit polling, and it's not close.
00:01:58.480 --> 00:02:04.079
The Iran conflict was a critical factor in the Republican route.
00:02:06.239 --> 00:02:14.000
Exit polling showed 34% of voters said Iran conflict was crucial to their congressional vote.
00:02:14.240 --> 00:02:18.800
40% called it a major factor, 19 called it a minor factor.
00:02:19.120 --> 00:02:26.800
Trump acknowledged part of the Iran was admitted the conflict, drove up gasoline prices that hurt Republicans at the polls.
00:02:27.039 --> 00:02:42.319
The projected costs of operation per Pentagon is roughly$47.1 billion, with support sitting at 35.9%, opposition at 56.5, according to silver bullet polling average.
00:02:42.560 --> 00:02:48.639
Here's a part the mainstream media won't say, not even quietly.
00:02:49.120 --> 00:02:52.800
Trump was right on substance and got punished on messaging.
00:02:53.039 --> 00:03:04.960
Trump told the Wall Street Journal he did the right thing and would have done it again because the alternative was letting the world top state sponsor of terror finish a nuclear weapon.
00:03:05.120 --> 00:03:12.719
That's not a blunder, that's leadership, willing to eat the bad news cycle for a generational security win.
00:03:13.120 --> 00:03:16.719
That's real failure here, isn't the strike.
00:03:17.039 --> 00:03:29.039
It's that nobody in the administration went on television every single week connecting$4.50 to the fact that your kids aren't going to grow up under a nuclear umbrella.
00:03:29.759 --> 00:03:32.960
Even some conservative voices are furious.
00:03:33.360 --> 00:03:39.199
Matt Walsh called it the greatest political bunder in the last two decades, very least.
00:03:39.520 --> 00:03:47.759
Unforgivable betrayal of American first principles and frustration and fear on politics, dead wrong on policy.
00:03:48.240 --> 00:03:56.639
You don't and let Tehran go nuclear because the base wants to cheapen the gas by Labor Day.
00:03:57.360 --> 00:03:59.439
That is stupidity.
00:03:59.759 --> 00:04:05.599
But then again, so are those green-headed idiots that are on news these days.
00:04:05.840 --> 00:04:14.080
And if you need proof of this geopolitical gut punch, it's not a vindication of appeasement.
00:04:14.240 --> 00:04:18.319
Listen to actually celebrating Trump losses on Capitol Hill.
00:04:19.360 --> 00:04:24.240
Iranian chief negotiator said Americans voted no on war.
00:04:24.639 --> 00:04:26.160
That was on the BBC.
00:04:26.959 --> 00:04:29.120
Today, early morning.
00:04:38.079 --> 00:04:42.319
That Iran endorses this message, warning that if the U.S.
00:04:42.399 --> 00:04:49.439
government betrays their public will, it will learn no come without a nightmare.
00:05:01.680 --> 00:05:08.800
Meanwhile, the IRGC claimed four oil tankers caught fire after hitting naval mines in the Strait of Hormuz.
00:05:09.120 --> 00:05:10.879
And it shot down another U.S.
00:05:11.040 --> 00:05:13.920
MQ-9 drone at a couple billion dollars.
00:05:14.160 --> 00:05:19.360
Though the BBC verify found no evidence of supporting the four tanker claim.
00:05:20.399 --> 00:05:25.839
This is the headlines Democrats should be forced to answer on every Sunday show.
00:05:26.079 --> 00:05:34.000
The Iranian regime is treating the Democratic-controlled Congress as a diplomatic victory and a green light for escalation.
00:05:38.720 --> 00:05:42.079
He's threatening a nightmare if Washington doesn't fold.
00:05:42.399 --> 00:05:48.480
Days after Iranian forces were setting tankers ablaze, shooting down American drones.
00:05:49.279 --> 00:05:52.560
That's a regime that wants peace through dialogue.
00:05:52.879 --> 00:05:53.839
I think you're stupid.
00:05:54.000 --> 00:06:01.120
As President Mozart Pazin claims, insisting on the government has been trying to resolve the crisis through dialogue.
00:06:01.439 --> 00:06:05.120
No one will benefit from this war if it resumes.
00:06:05.360 --> 00:06:13.519
That's a regime reading American election returns as weakness and testing it in real time with mines and drones and shooting things.
00:06:17.439 --> 00:06:21.199
He told CBS News the conflict would end when I say it would.
00:07:21.680 --> 00:07:23.839
It's exactly a dishonest leap.
00:07:26.800 --> 00:07:38.639
The Western press and those wonderful people now in the state of Michigan have a member of the Brotherhood Muslim brigade as their congressional leader.
00:07:40.000 --> 00:07:41.920
The talking points are simple.
00:07:42.240 --> 00:07:44.480
Iran didn't win the debate last night.
00:07:44.560 --> 00:07:46.160
It won a vibe shift.
00:07:46.319 --> 00:07:49.680
That vibe shift didn't stop center feud.
00:07:50.319 --> 00:07:55.199
74% of voters called Iran's crucial major factor in their vote.
00:07:55.439 --> 00:08:04.480
This election was about gas prices, not wearing nuclear masks and nuclear fallout shelters and having food to last 25 years.
00:08:04.800 --> 00:08:06.720
Washington controlled ballots.
00:08:06.959 --> 00:08:12.879
The IRGC was mining tankers and shooting down drones and attacking Americans abroad.
00:08:13.199 --> 00:08:17.920
Tehran's actual response to the midterms is let's blow some more shit up.
00:08:18.160 --> 00:08:19.920
Let's kill some more Americans.
00:08:20.160 --> 00:08:24.000
Let's be the terror for 47 years, and it's always been.
00:08:24.240 --> 00:08:27.120
Every family is paying more at the pump.
00:08:37.200 --> 00:08:41.279
Iran's Supreme Leader's office says nothing's going to change.
00:08:43.120 --> 00:08:44.399
Hostility will end.
00:08:44.720 --> 00:08:53.840
The Democrats are being handed a win, and they're handing that win to Iran, China, and all of America's enemies.
00:08:54.240 --> 00:08:56.639
Republicans didn't lose the argument over around.
00:08:56.799 --> 00:08:58.480
They lost the explanation.
00:08:58.960 --> 00:09:06.320
The strike was right, the nuclear threat is real, and 47 billion is a rounding error next to a nuclear armed state in Europe.
00:09:07.039 --> 00:09:20.639
I think the United States, Western Europe, its neighbors, not but including Tel Aviv, United Arab Arabics, Dubai, Jordan, Syria, Iraq, and the Strait of Vermouth.
00:09:20.799 --> 00:09:27.840
But when gaz hits five bucks, nobody in the administration is out there week making moral cases.
00:09:28.000 --> 00:09:30.639
Voters fill the blanks themselves.
00:09:30.960 --> 00:09:35.279
Tehran is more than happy to fill them in with a victory lap on Twitter.
00:09:35.519 --> 00:09:37.600
Iran didn't want peace Tuesday night.
00:09:37.759 --> 00:09:40.480
Iran wanted Democrats in power, got them.
00:09:40.720 --> 00:09:44.879
Immediately started testing the waters by mining and droning.
00:09:45.120 --> 00:09:53.120
Remember that the next time you tell them the midterm was about democracy, it was about how much money Iran pumped into the U.S.
00:09:53.279 --> 00:09:57.840
election and supported candidates of the DSA around this country.
00:09:58.960 --> 00:10:01.600
It is mind-boggling, ladies and gentlemen.
00:10:01.840 --> 00:10:03.039
Mind-boggling.
00:10:03.679 --> 00:10:07.200
Ready to build or ready to destroy.
00:10:07.279 --> 00:10:09.519
David, sorry for taking this whole rant.
00:10:09.919 --> 00:10:11.120
No, no, actually, it was pretty good.
00:10:11.200 --> 00:10:13.120
And I gotta tell you something though.
00:10:13.519 --> 00:10:14.879
You focused on Iran.
00:10:15.120 --> 00:10:17.759
I'm gonna give you a different focus on this one, folks.
00:10:18.080 --> 00:10:24.480
Because what happened last night was the DSA really cracked the nut.
00:10:24.639 --> 00:10:25.919
They got through, Stuart.
00:10:26.159 --> 00:10:27.600
They got through.
00:10:28.080 --> 00:10:34.159
They got through something that unfortunately the you know the Republicans couldn't stop.
00:10:34.399 --> 00:10:40.159
It's not just Abdul El-Said, it's Daria Lisa Avila Chevalier in New York.
00:10:40.639 --> 00:10:54.960
It's Claire Valdez from New York, it's Donovan McKinney in Michigan, it's Melat Kiros in Colorado, Chris Rabb in Pennsylvania, and Brad Lander in New York.
00:10:55.200 --> 00:10:59.120
You know why I brought up these names, Stuart, with Abdullah Saeed?
00:10:59.600 --> 00:11:01.919
Is this the new face of the Democrats?
00:11:02.159 --> 00:11:03.679
You voted them in.
00:11:04.559 --> 00:11:10.399
You chose, despite all the warnings, to send a message to Mr.
00:11:10.480 --> 00:11:22.799
Trump that you're not happy, and as a result, we're gonna throw out guys in Texas, people in the Carolinas, we're gonna send them all over the place.
00:11:22.960 --> 00:11:25.039
We're gonna throw them out on their ass, Stuart.
00:11:25.679 --> 00:11:26.720
You know why?
00:11:26.960 --> 00:11:28.080
Because we're mad.
00:11:28.480 --> 00:11:31.360
And you brought it up diesel, gas, all that.
00:11:31.519 --> 00:11:40.000
The Iran, what the impact of the Iran War did on the US, excuse me, that is what Americans are pissed off about.
00:11:40.559 --> 00:11:44.799
But what you brought in instead was whom?
00:11:45.679 --> 00:11:48.240
Listen to what they're talking about.
00:11:48.639 --> 00:11:50.720
Great talking point, Stuart.
00:11:51.279 --> 00:11:51.679
Right?
00:11:52.000 --> 00:12:03.519
Medicare for all, education for all, all kinds of socialist programs and campaigns, that they're gonna force Akeem Jeffries' hand starting in January of 2027.
00:12:03.919 --> 00:12:15.840
For two years, they're gonna force the Democratic Party to shift not only more left, but to bring in programs and ideas that make no bloody sense.
00:12:16.320 --> 00:12:20.559
Sounds good on paper, but has been proven to be unreal.
00:12:20.960 --> 00:12:22.799
Mamdani is proven it.
00:12:22.960 --> 00:12:26.240
He can't get his grocery stores off the ground to work properly.
00:12:26.399 --> 00:12:28.080
Nobody wants to talk about that.
00:12:29.279 --> 00:12:31.120
You have all these kinds of things.
00:12:31.360 --> 00:12:33.039
But here's the kicker store.
00:12:33.600 --> 00:12:35.440
Here is the kicker.
00:12:35.679 --> 00:12:39.919
You know what all of these people voted campaigned on?
00:12:40.720 --> 00:12:43.679
You gotta cut off the head of the snake.
00:12:43.759 --> 00:12:51.759
You gotta stop funding Israel because Israel funding Israel is the reason why our country is suffering, why the US is struggling.
00:12:51.919 --> 00:13:01.279
I ranted about this while you're away on Monday, that the message was very clear that if we could, if we didn't fund Israel, we could buy eggs and bananas.
00:13:01.679 --> 00:13:04.000
Well, guess what happened yesterday, Stuart?
00:13:04.159 --> 00:13:04.399
Mr.
00:13:04.480 --> 00:13:05.840
Trump announced along with B.B.
00:13:05.919 --> 00:13:09.120
Netanyahu that the US will no longer fund Israel.
00:13:09.519 --> 00:13:13.919
So now who are you going to blame, socialists, for your problems?
00:13:14.159 --> 00:13:20.080
Because you're gonna bury the United States in even greater debt, because that's what you voted in, people.
00:13:20.320 --> 00:13:21.840
Your anger towards Mr.
00:13:21.919 --> 00:13:33.279
Trump about diesel and gas prices is gonna lead you to a higher cost of living because this Congress is gonna put in programs and you're gonna go, wow, amazing.
00:13:33.519 --> 00:13:35.039
How are we gonna fund it?
00:13:35.200 --> 00:13:37.759
Oh, we're just gonna tax more the billionaires.
00:13:38.080 --> 00:13:40.559
Well, what do you think Elon Musk is doing today?
00:13:40.799 --> 00:13:56.960
You know those data centers that was gonna create jobs in your state, opportunity, financial benefits that you guys were freaking out over because the Democrats tried to convince you that this was a bad idea, that the Democrats should control the AI.
00:13:57.120 --> 00:13:57.759
I mean, I love it.
00:13:57.919 --> 00:14:02.879
All the Democrats want to do is control your lives, everything in your lives.
00:14:02.960 --> 00:14:09.519
That's all they keep talking about is leave it to us because we know better than you how to run your life.
00:14:10.399 --> 00:14:13.759
Where do you think Elon Musk now wants to put his data center, Stuart?
00:14:14.159 --> 00:14:15.360
In outer space.
00:14:15.679 --> 00:14:23.440
So all those cities and states that were were gonna look at all this financial benefits, he's saying, okay, no, I guess not.
00:14:24.559 --> 00:14:26.799
Bravo, Democrats, you did it.
00:14:27.039 --> 00:14:32.960
You did exactly what we've been warning you about, and you haven't even gotten into office yet.
00:14:33.279 --> 00:14:39.440
But the shoe has fallen, the net effect of what you're doing has already started.
00:14:39.919 --> 00:14:43.279
You think you've changed for the better.
00:14:43.600 --> 00:14:44.879
You've actually not.
00:14:56.080 --> 00:14:59.759
Oh, so that's where our tax money is gonna go, too, Stuart.
00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:07.759
More hearings, more attacks on Trump, more lawsuits, because that's exactly what's gonna lower gas prices.
00:15:07.919 --> 00:15:10.320
That's exactly what's gonna help us with housing.
00:15:10.480 --> 00:15:14.080
That's exactly what's gonna create a better economy.
00:15:14.399 --> 00:15:15.759
More hearings.
00:15:16.720 --> 00:15:19.840
Because that is what the Democrats are all about.
00:15:20.320 --> 00:15:25.200
Get rid of your opponent so that you can control and seize power.
00:15:25.519 --> 00:15:34.559
Watch how they're gonna push to try to expand the judicial to the Supreme Court to 11 so that they can have more Democrat candidates on there.
00:15:34.799 --> 00:15:38.240
Watch what they do, guys, over the next two years.
00:15:38.879 --> 00:15:40.799
But here's the best news, Stuart.
00:15:41.440 --> 00:15:43.679
You only have two years.
00:15:44.000 --> 00:15:48.080
Because in 2028, you know, the Democrats think that they won.
00:15:48.399 --> 00:15:50.159
No, Trump lost people.
00:15:50.320 --> 00:15:52.000
The Democrats didn't win.
00:15:52.240 --> 00:15:53.279
Trump lost.
00:15:53.440 --> 00:15:59.440
And if you think that the message was we love your brand, you got it wrong.
00:15:59.679 --> 00:16:01.279
We didn't love your brand.
00:16:01.519 --> 00:16:02.960
People didn't vote for your brand.
00:16:03.039 --> 00:16:06.399
They voted to send the message to Trump that we don't like what you're doing.
00:16:06.559 --> 00:16:11.519
You need to lower gas and diesel prices because we can no longer afford this kind of living.
00:16:11.759 --> 00:16:13.600
That was the message that was sent.
00:16:14.000 --> 00:16:28.879
And if you think that you want to continue with this socialist nonsense, I can't wait for you to nominate AOC over Ram Emanuel as your candidate for president in 2028.
00:16:29.039 --> 00:16:30.399
I can't wait.
00:16:30.639 --> 00:16:38.480
Because whether it's Marco Rubio or JD Vance or somebody else in the Republican Party, you're gonna get slaughtered.
00:16:38.639 --> 00:16:50.080
So please, Democrats, continue your stupidity, continue to push this socialist agenda because in two years from now, the message will be sent your way.
00:16:53.039 --> 00:16:54.879
All right, we're out of here.
00:16:55.120 --> 00:16:56.240
That's it, David.
