00:00:01
Speaker 1: Another Republican debate in the books, DeSantis and Nikki Haley opened the debate by attacking Donald Trump, one of them saying I don't think he's the right president. Now going all in trying to find a lane for how they are going to beat j Trump. Now, the question is, if you watched the third Republican debate, did it change your mind? If you were leaning towards Donald Trump or a secured voter for Trump, are you now changing your mind?
00:00:30
Speaker 2: If you were a.
00:00:31
Speaker 1: Haley voter, or a vivic voter, or a DeSantis voter, did they lose or gain even more support from you last night? That is the big question. Now, there were some moments last night, some moments that were pre rehearsed, but actually we're pretty decent. One of them was Vivik Ramaswami where he opened the night saying this about the Republican Party.
00:00:54
Speaker 2: And it certainly landed with many voters.
00:00:57
Speaker 3: Listeners want and need to hear them. Mister Ramaswami, let me turn to you. Please make your case.
00:01:02
Speaker 4: Why would you Why should you be the nominee and not the former president?
00:01:07
Speaker 5: I think there's something deeper going on in the Republican Party. Here and I am upset about what happened last night. We've become a party of losers. At the end of the day, it is a cancer in the Republican establishment.
00:01:18
Speaker 3: Let's speak the truth.
00:01:19
Speaker 5: I mean, since Ronald McDaniel took over as chairwoman of the R and C in twenty seventeen, we have lost twenty eighteen, twenty twenty, twenty twenty two.
00:01:27
Speaker 3: No red wave that never came.
00:01:29
Speaker 5: We got trounced last night in twenty twenty three. And I think that we have to have accountability in our party for that matter. On if you want to come on stage tonight, you want to look the GOP voters in the eye and tell them you resign, I will turn over my yield my time to you, and frankly, look the people they're cheering for losing in the Republican Party. Think about who's moderating this debate. This should be Tucker Carlson, Joe Rogan and Elon Musk.
00:01:52
Speaker 3: We'd have ten.
00:01:53
Speaker 5: Times the viewership asking questions that GOP primary voters actually care about and bringing more people into our party. You think the Democrats and we've got Kristin Welker here, do you think that Democrats would actually hire Greg Guttfeld chast a democratic debate.
00:02:07
Speaker 2: They wouldn't do it.
00:02:09
Speaker 5: And so the fact of the matters, I mean, Christ, I'm gonna use this time because it's actually about you and the media and the corrupt media establishment.
00:02:15
Speaker 2: Ask you the Trump.
00:02:16
Speaker 5: Russia collusion hoax that you pushed on this network for years, was that real or was that Hillary Clinton made up disinformation?
00:02:24
Speaker 3: Answer the question, go, mister, this is now we get our country that.
00:02:31
Speaker 5: We need accountability because this media rigged the twenty sixteen election.
00:02:35
Speaker 3: They rigged the twenty twenty.
00:02:36
Speaker 5: Election with the Hunter Biden laptop story, and they're gonna rig this election accountability.
00:02:41
Speaker 3: Let me turn to governor.
00:02:45
Speaker 2: Now.
00:02:46
Speaker 1: That was the moment that many in the hall were like, Okay, I can get behind that.
00:02:50
Speaker 2: Right.
00:02:50
Speaker 1: It was obviously a pre planned attack, and you have those when you get ready for debate prep Ramaswami saying we wouldn't hire or the Democrats wouldn't hire a conservative to host a debate, and he's like, why are we doing it with you?
00:03:05
Speaker 2: Guys?
00:03:06
Speaker 1: Tiger Carlson, Joe Rogan, Elon mush should be the ones moderating to this debate. This debate and we would have ten times of viewership. He's also right about that. It was a moment for him, There was a big moment. The problem is he gave it right back. There was a back and forth Ramaswami talking about TikTok, a Chinese communist app that people are stupid and put on their phones.
00:03:31
Speaker 2: Many kids use it.
00:03:33
Speaker 1: And what we witnessed recently was a massive purposeful influx of pro Hamas propaganda on the TikTok app. This is a app that's used by millions and millions of Americans, and what we saw documented was clearly China was wanting to not back Israel and wanted to back the terrorists.
00:03:56
Speaker 2: And so what did they do.
00:03:57
Speaker 1: They flooded the timeline says, you're scrolling with pro Hamas propaganda. Now, the VECK went after Niki Haley, the VEC went after Niki Haley's daughter.
00:04:10
Speaker 2: That was a bad move for him. It was a bad look for him.
00:04:14
Speaker 1: So all those people that just if you listen the first thing he said and you agreed with him, and you were like, all right, I kind of like this guy. There were many that were turned off by this back and forth.
00:04:24
Speaker 5: Well, I want to laugh at why Nikki Haley didn't answer your question, which is about looking at families in the eye. And the last debate she made fun of me for actually joining TikTok while her own daughter was actually using the app for a long time. So you might want to take care of your family first, aid the next generation of Americans are using and that's actually the point.
00:04:45
Speaker 3: You have her supporters propping her up. That's fine, here's the truth. The easy answer.
00:04:50
Speaker 5: Is actually to say that we're just going to ban one app.
00:04:52
Speaker 3: We got to go further.
00:04:53
Speaker 5: We have to ban any US company actually transferring US data to the Chinese.
00:04:59
Speaker 3: Here's a glory most people don't know.
00:05:01
Speaker 5: Airbnb hands over US user data to the CCP.
00:05:06
Speaker 3: Now that's a US owned company.
00:05:08
Speaker 5: So this is the problem when you have Republicans that temporarily go the way the winds blow. And now it's popular to talk tough on China.
00:05:15
Speaker 3: When she was you an.
00:05:15
Speaker 5: Ambassador called them literally her words, not my our great friend. You can't be fair weather fans of the right policy.
00:05:21
Speaker 3: Get to the root cause.
00:05:23
Speaker 5: Even US companies in Silicon Valley are regularly doing it.
00:05:28
Speaker 3: Cut the virtue signaling.
00:05:29
Speaker 5: The fact of the matter is Democrats are on TikTok today. The only person, one of the few people who is putting up content the way the actual algorithms work, speaking for pro Israel views for others. A more Republicans will join it, but stop US companies from turning over data to Chinese companies.
00:05:45
Speaker 4: Now, writers don't get to respond to personal attacks.
00:05:49
Speaker 6: But you do, thank you very much. You know, when he talks about me praising China, he doesn't know the fact that the reason China was praised was because I negotiated with China and Russia the largest set of sanctions against North Korea in a generation. We are the That is literally the reason North Korea stopped testing ballistic missiles. So I said, China did good on their part. That was an explosion.
00:06:10
Speaker 3: You said, because are your words not mine? And so just phone up to you would never change negotiation to the people about what you said.
00:06:23
Speaker 6: Every day, I thought, China and I did it, look at that by making sure any agency.
00:06:28
Speaker 3: Heads in you in.
00:06:29
Speaker 6: I did it by making sure that we called them out on human rights. I did it by making sure that we held them accountable on everything that they did. That's the reason we got out of Human Rights counsel that's the reason we called them out, and I have there's day I haven't.
00:06:47
Speaker 4: Afterwards, everybody else is hanging on the rules here, mister Romas, Senator.
00:06:51
Speaker 1: Scott, now you listen to that. And Nikki Haley called him scum. You're just scum after he started talking about his daughter. I think it's always a bad decision to talk about politicians' family members, especially when they're miners. When they're miners, they should be off limits. You should be able to talk and debate this on your own. And I think Ramaswami there made a big mistake because there's a lot of mothers out there that watched that that thought that that was probably one of the worst moments of the ninth if not the worst moment of the night. So he went from this amazing opening to immediately attacking Nikoely's daughter and using that to attack her.
00:07:35
Speaker 2: That was a bad look.
00:07:37
Speaker 1: And I thought early on, I was like, all right, maybe Wamaswamy's going to jump in the polls a little bit, And then immediately that happened, I was like, never mind.
00:07:44
Speaker 2: So who else had a good night?
00:07:46
Speaker 1: DeSantis in the center of the stage, and DeSantis has the most to lose when he's on that stage, but also he has a chance to gain. It was a good stage for him because there was fewer people. Now there doesn't seem to be so much of a let's go after Ron Desandra's mentality by the others on the stage that place to his advantage. It allowed for Desanders to actually have more time to talk about the issues. One of the issues was Desantas saying, hey, why should you choose him over Trump? Here's what he had to say about that in his opening All of You.
00:08:22
Speaker 4: Donald Trump is the first ex president in more than one hundred years to run for the White House again, and he remains popular among Republican primary voters as his legal challenges mount. Governor DeSantis, let me begin with you on this one. Speak to Republican voters who are supporting Donald Trump, why should you and not him be the Republican nominee to face Joe Biden a year from now?
00:08:46
Speaker 7: This country is in trouble, and the elites that have put us here, they don't care about you. They don't care that you're having to grapple with higher grocery prices or have higher gas prices. They don't care that your family's less secure because of the open border that's allowed drugs and even terrorists to come into this country.
00:09:03
Speaker 3: Well I care.
00:09:04
Speaker 7: I am not going to sit idly by and let this country continue its downward spiral. We need leadership, and we need it now. I'll take the hits, I'll take the arrows, I'll take the slings, because ultimately it's not about me, it's about you.
00:09:18
Speaker 3: I will fight for you.
00:09:20
Speaker 7: I will make sure to lead this country's revival, and I will win for you and your family.
00:09:26
Speaker 3: Action speak louder than words.
00:09:28
Speaker 7: We don't have time for excuses, and it's not something that we're going to be able to.
00:09:32
Speaker 3: Have all these distractions.
00:09:33
Speaker 7: As a veteran, I will get the job done now.
00:09:36
Speaker 3: If you look where we are now.
00:09:37
Speaker 7: It's a lot different than when we were in twenty sixteen. And Donald Trump's a lot different guy than he was in twenty sixteen. He owes it to you to be on this stage and explain why he should get another chance. He should explain why he didn't have Mexico pay.
00:09:52
Speaker 3: For the border wall.
00:09:53
Speaker 7: He should explain why he racked up so much debt. He should explain why he didn't drain the swamp, and he said Republicans were going to get tired of winning what we saw last night. I'm sick of Republicans losing.
00:10:05
Speaker 3: In Florida. I showed how it's done one year ago.
00:10:08
Speaker 8: Here.
00:10:09
Speaker 7: We want a historic victory, including a massive landslide right here in Miami Dade County.
00:10:15
Speaker 3: That's how we have to do it.
00:10:16
Speaker 7: So I promise you this, as the nominee next November, I'll get the job done, and as president, I will deliver time.
00:10:22
Speaker 3: Let me turn to Ambassador Lin.
00:10:26
Speaker 2: Now.
00:10:27
Speaker 1: The end there was probably the best part of his argument. I've been winning and if you're tired of losing. We didn't have a great election night two nights ago. It was average at best. Many think it was an opportunity where we should have won big. I agree with that, and we didn't. So what does that mean, Well, I mean we're losing a lot. You heard Vivek go after the RNC chairwoman the way that he did. That's a popular line. But the question is if you're a Trump supporter and you hear desantists that way, does it make you say, Okay, I really do like him, like maybe it is time for me to switch my vote. He mentioned that you heard the commentator left her Holt there saying, debate moderator saying, hey, wow, he's got a lot of legal challenges. That is true. Is that a reason to abandon him as a candidate? Is that a reason to stand by him even longer?
00:11:23
Speaker 8: Now?
00:11:23
Speaker 1: There was also another moment that happened, and it was a moment for DeSantis that others really liked. I like this. It was about standing with Israel. It was on the issue of Israel, and he said I would tell net Yahoo to finish it, referring to going after the terrorists that attacked his country.
00:11:41
Speaker 7: Listen, I would be telling Bbe finish the job once and for all with these butchers. Come on, they're terrorists, their massacring innocent people.
00:11:52
Speaker 3: They would wipe.
00:11:53
Speaker 7: Every Jew off the globe if they could. He cannot live with that threat right by his country. That Hamas should release every hostage and they should unconditionally surrender. I'm sick of hearing the media. I'm sick of hearing other people blame Israel just for defending itself. We will stand with Israel in word and indeed, in public and in private. And I can tell you, as governor, I actually did something about it Biden's and the black has been atrocious.
00:12:20
Speaker 3: We had Floridians that.
00:12:21
Speaker 7: Were over there after the attack.
00:12:23
Speaker 3: He left them stranded.
00:12:24
Speaker 7: They couldn't get flights out, so I scrambled resources in Florida. I sent planes over to Israel and I brought back over seven hundred people to safety. There could have been more hostages had we not acted.
00:12:37
Speaker 3: And I'll tell you this. I met the.
00:12:38
Speaker 7: First planeload when they came to Florida and one of the mothers pointed to a six year old daughter and she said, my daughter had been saying the last two nights, Mommy, I don't want to hear any more bombs, no more rockets. I just want to get back to Florida. So there's a difference between words and deeds.
00:12:54
Speaker 3: We acted and we save lives.
00:12:57
Speaker 2: That is presidential, no doubt about it.
00:12:59
Speaker 1: And that was a presidential type moment for him when he said it that way.
00:13:04
Speaker 2: I love that.
00:13:05
Speaker 1: There was also fight over Vladimir Putin and g and the idea. Nikki Haley said they are salivating for someone like Ramaswami to be the president. This Ramaswami, Nikki Haley wore clearly they're both fighting for the same voters. And I want you to hear one of the highlighted moments for Nicki Haley last night. Some said she thought it was too harsh, that she was too harsh.
00:13:27
Speaker 2: Others so they loved it.
00:13:28
Speaker 9: Listensident Zelenski's urgent new plea, where do you stand on more funds?
00:13:32
Speaker 3: I'm absolutely unpersuaded, and I'm.
00:13:34
Speaker 5: Actually enjoying watching the Ukraine hawks quietly delicately tiptoe back from their position as this thing has unwound into a disaster. The first half of this race, I was the only person standing for it. Now they're actually quietly coming around to being more cautious as they should. Level with the American people here. Ukraine is not a paragon of democracy. This is a country that has banned eleven opposition parties. It has consolidated all media into one state TV me ARM that's not democratic. It has threatened not to hold elections this year unless the US forks over more money. That is not democratic. It has celebrated a Nazi in its ranks, the comedian in Cargo Pans a man called Zelenski do it in their own ranks.
00:14:12
Speaker 3: That is not democratic.
00:14:14
Speaker 5: More facts for you that you won't hear from the mainstream in either party or the mainstream media the regions of Ukraine that are occupied by Russia right now in the donbas Lo, Hans, Donetsk, these are Russian speaking regions that have not even been part of Ukraine since twenty fourteen. That other people probably couldn't name those provinces for you, those are the hard facts. And so to frame this as some kind of battle between good versus evil, don't buy it. And I like the likes of the sharpest of the warhawks on Ukraine. Nikki Haley to have some accountability and answer, do you want to use US taxpayer money to fund the banning of Christians? That is actually what's happening. They're using the Ukrainian Orthodox Church. They have banned them. The Ukrainian Parliament just did this last week by our dollars, and I think you owe it to the.
00:15:01
Speaker 3: American people, Nikki, at least this one. Thank you.
00:15:05
Speaker 9: That's thank you, mister Ramaswami, thank you. We asked the questions, Ambassador of Valley, what is your take on more funding for Ukraine.
00:15:19
Speaker 6: I am telling you Putin and President she are salivating at the thought that someone like that could become president. They would love to think the matter don't. This is what I will tell you to talk.
00:15:34
Speaker 9: The ambassador has the floor, Thank you.
00:15:36
Speaker 6: The first thing I'll tell you is, we all remember what that thug did when he invaded Ukraine. We all know that half a million people have died because of Putin. And here is a freedom loving, pro American country that is fighting for its survival and its democracy. No, I don't think we should give them cash. I think we should give them the equipment and the ammunition to win. And I'll tell you if Biden had done it when they first asked for it, this war would be over. But let's also remember this, when you left Afghanistan in shambles and left them with a ton of weapons and money, it's not that we left, it's how we left. When you look at Ukraine, don't think for a second now everybody wants to move away from Ukraine. They'll want to move away from Israel a year from now. America can never be so arrogant to think we don't need friends. After nine to eleven, we needed a lot of friends. Now is the time to get partnerships. This unholy alliance between Russia, Ukraine and China is real. There is a reason that Taiwanese want us to support the Ukrainians. It's because they know that China's coming after them next. There is a reason Ukrainians want us to support Israelis because they know that if Iran wins, Russia winsad. We have to see the combination of this ambassador.
00:16:52
Speaker 8: Thank you.
00:16:53
Speaker 1: That was one of the big back and forth the night. Obviously, Haley going after Ramaswami, Ramaswami going out after Haley. Will it change anyone's mind? I don't know. Is there enough votes there to pull from one another to matter with this short stage? And notice I haven't really even mentioned Christy yet. Chris Christy last night is I actually think probably the best debater on the stage. And I'm just talking about style and understanding how to read the room.
00:17:22
Speaker 2: He's a very, very, very talented debater.
00:17:25
Speaker 1: Chris Christy had a night where it was clear he was auditioning not to become the President of the United States of America, but he was auditioning to become a talk show host on MSNBC.
00:17:37
Speaker 2: Why do I say that because of answers like this.
00:17:41
Speaker 4: Are you and not former President and Trump?
00:17:44
Speaker 2: Well, Leicester.
00:17:45
Speaker 8: Look, you said it at the beginning of the debate. We are dealing with extraordinarily important issues facing this country right now. We have our greatest ally in the Middle East under fire from its terrorist group that has committed to wiping them and every Jewish person in this world off the map. We have Ukraine with Vladimir Putin, a communist KGB dictator who wants to put the old band back together. He's starting in Ukraine and he's going to move to the Baltics and Poland after that. We have inflation in this country that is choking, choking every American family that wants to try to rise up and give their children a better life. And tonight we need to decide which president is going to be the one to tackle the big issues.
00:18:40
Speaker 3: Who's going to make this.
00:18:41
Speaker 8: Country look once again, not just inward, but look outward at the world and say America is the country, the indispensable nation that makes this a safer world and in a safer world, American innovation, American hard work has always been the thing that has driven our country to greater things. I'm going to be the president who will do those big things. We're not going to be small and I'll say this about Donald Trump. Anybody who's going to be spending the next year and a half of their life focusing on keeping themselves out of jail in courtrooms cannot lead this party or this country.
00:19:16
Speaker 2: It needs to be said.
00:19:17
Speaker 3: Playing the governor, thank.
00:19:18
Speaker 1: You, let me turn this centator, this skin now, I said that that was a answer for a TV show, right trying to get his own show. I think that's his end game here. Let me prove why I believe that. And I'm going to prove it obviously very quickly, because you can't make this up. First show he does MSNBC the morning after debate. What did he say on MSNBC knowing that audience listen.
00:19:43
Speaker 10: So what do you make of the Democrats' big wins in Kentucky, Ohio, and Virginia on Tuesday night? And what do Republicans need to do to try and even compete?
00:19:57
Speaker 8: Well, it shows that he's continued electoral and political poison, Mika. I mean, you know, the Daniel Cameron race a Kentucky is one example, but in Virginia as well, even with a popular governor in Glenn Youngkin, you can't overcome the stench of Donald Trump's political narcissism. That's the bottom line. And you know that's why. You know, folks at the RNC, who are two thirds of them are Donald Trump's supporters. They don't want any out of opposition to him on a debate stage. But you know the fact is, I'm not going anywhere, and I'm going to continue to bring the case to him and against him because he's wrong for our country and wrong for our party.
00:20:42
Speaker 1: Wrong for our country and wrong for our party. I'll continue to bring the case to him and against him. Now, Chris Christy has no chance of winning this thing, So why are you still up there? I really do believe this is straight up for his next gig.
00:20:59
Speaker 2: And his lines.
00:21:00
Speaker 1: Anybody who's spending time focusing to keep himself out of jail cannot lead this country.
00:21:06
Speaker 2: You just gave a game plan to these.
00:21:08
Speaker 1: Marxists, Communist socialists in our government in the deep state.
00:21:12
Speaker 2: If you use Chris Christie's.
00:21:16
Speaker 1: Definition of success or failure, then the Democrats are just going to indict every single and go after legally in civil cases, whatever it takes to get people off the debate stage and say, oh, you can't be president anymore, or you can't run for office anymore. You can't be a center anymore, you can't be a governor anymore. That's all they're going to do. They're going to do this over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again. They're going to keep saying it, and they're going to keep doing it if it means they can take people out and then they don't even have to run against our best candidates. That's why Chris Christie is such a useful idiot. He is a useful idiot for the Democrat. And by the way, they'll even smack him around on the issue of abortion. For example, it got very heated with.
00:22:08
Speaker 2: You know, Mia, whatever the hell her last name is.
00:22:12
Speaker 1: She said this about the abortion issue last night or this morning, I should say, to Chris Christy and smacked him around for flip flopping as she described it.
00:22:21
Speaker 10: Listen, Yeah, another issue that you talked about last night was abortion. You and I disagree on this issue, but the one thing you keep saying is you keep talking about abortion in the ninth month, which is allowed in your state. And last time I asked you to bring me the case where a woman walked into a doctor's office in the ninth month and said I've decided to don't want to have a baby. Please take this out. It doesn't happen. Less than one percent of abortions are performed after twenty one weeks, and if there is a situation like that, it's because there is a massive emergency. So I just think of all the candidates, you've been the most honest about Trump and election integrity. But in this one respect, I have to call you out because you're not being honest on the issue. We can debate abortion, but there isn't abortion in the ninth month.
00:23:13
Speaker 8: Mika, you're the one who's not being honest. I did not say there was abortion in the ninth month. What I said was that the law in New Jersey and New York and Illinois and California permits it. And you can't deny that that's the truth because it is and so and so.
00:23:31
Speaker 2: Look, it doesn't know.
00:23:32
Speaker 8: Don't call somebody a liar, don't call don't By the way, no, no, no, Mika, nor did I say that issue?
00:23:42
Speaker 2: Well, well, let's have it on.
00:23:44
Speaker 8: Well, let's have an honest discussion about it doesn't happen.
00:23:46
Speaker 3: You answer my.
00:23:47
Speaker 8: Question, why don't you answer my question, does the law permit it in those states? Well, that's all I said, So I don't understand what your problem is with that. In the end, if that's what the law permits, that's what the people who passed those laws.
00:23:59
Speaker 3: Said, is okay.
00:24:01
Speaker 2: Is legally come with Chris, that's.
00:24:02
Speaker 10: Your pointed a picture about the issue of abortion that is not honest. And this is a health issue, and there are women extreme situations who need health care and they should get it.
00:24:16
Speaker 3: We can debate that your pay.
00:24:18
Speaker 10: There are women in the state of New Jersey into doctor's offices asking for abortions in the ninth month, it doesn't it happened.
00:24:27
Speaker 8: And and by the way, you know, you could continue to set up that straw man for yourself to knock it down because you're mischaracterizing what I said. I am giving you the state of the law, and the state of the law in those states are that you could go into a doctor's office and do it. And that's all I said. But look, you know this is something that you want to.
00:24:49
Speaker 1: By the way, I love how Chris Christy there tries to get mad, but he should have just he should have unloaded on her and continued to unload on her and continued to unload on her, and he didn't. She absolutely is lying there, she's misrepresenting the facts there, and he took it. And that's why he's a week leader. He is a Week Leader for that reason. And this is why his best chance coming out of this is that somebody gives him a job at MSNBC as a woke liberal, fake Republican.
00:25:18
Speaker 2: That's the truth.

Speaker 1: Make sure you hit that subscribe button or follow button, auto download button wherever you're listening right now, and most importantly, please write a five story review and share this on social media.
00:25:29
Speaker 2: I'll see you back here tomorrow.
Speaker 1: Another Republican debate in the books, DeSantis and Nikki Haley opened the debate by attacking Donald Trump, one of them saying I don't think he's the right president. Now going all in trying to find a lane for how they are going to beat j Trump. Now, the question is, if you watched the third Republican debate, did it change your mind? If you were leaning towards Donald Trump or a secured voter for Trump, are you now changing your mind?
00:00:30
Speaker 2: If you were a.
00:00:31
Speaker 1: Haley voter, or a vivic voter, or a DeSantis voter, did they lose or gain even more support from you last night? That is the big question. Now, there were some moments last night, some moments that were pre rehearsed, but actually we're pretty decent. One of them was Vivik Ramaswami where he opened the night saying this about the Republican Party.
00:00:54
Speaker 2: And it certainly landed with many voters.
00:00:57
Speaker 3: Listeners want and need to hear them. Mister Ramaswami, let me turn to you. Please make your case.
00:01:02
Speaker 4: Why would you Why should you be the nominee and not the former president?
00:01:07
Speaker 5: I think there's something deeper going on in the Republican Party. Here and I am upset about what happened last night. We've become a party of losers. At the end of the day, it is a cancer in the Republican establishment.
00:01:18
Speaker 3: Let's speak the truth.
00:01:19
Speaker 5: I mean, since Ronald McDaniel took over as chairwoman of the R and C in twenty seventeen, we have lost twenty eighteen, twenty twenty, twenty twenty two.
00:01:27
Speaker 3: No red wave that never came.
00:01:29
Speaker 5: We got trounced last night in twenty twenty three. And I think that we have to have accountability in our party for that matter. On if you want to come on stage tonight, you want to look the GOP voters in the eye and tell them you resign, I will turn over my yield my time to you, and frankly, look the people they're cheering for losing in the Republican Party. Think about who's moderating this debate. This should be Tucker Carlson, Joe Rogan and Elon Musk.
00:01:52
Speaker 3: We'd have ten.
00:01:53
Speaker 5: Times the viewership asking questions that GOP primary voters actually care about and bringing more people into our party. You think the Democrats and we've got Kristin Welker here, do you think that Democrats would actually hire Greg Guttfeld chast a democratic debate.
00:02:07
Speaker 2: They wouldn't do it.
00:02:09
Speaker 5: And so the fact of the matters, I mean, Christ, I'm gonna use this time because it's actually about you and the media and the corrupt media establishment.
00:02:15
Speaker 2: Ask you the Trump.
00:02:16
Speaker 5: Russia collusion hoax that you pushed on this network for years, was that real or was that Hillary Clinton made up disinformation?
00:02:24
Speaker 3: Answer the question, go, mister, this is now we get our country that.
00:02:31
Speaker 5: We need accountability because this media rigged the twenty sixteen election.
00:02:35
Speaker 3: They rigged the twenty twenty.
00:02:36
Speaker 5: Election with the Hunter Biden laptop story, and they're gonna rig this election accountability.
00:02:41
Speaker 3: Let me turn to governor.
00:02:45
Speaker 2: Now.
00:02:46
Speaker 1: That was the moment that many in the hall were like, Okay, I can get behind that.
00:02:50
Speaker 2: Right.
00:02:50
Speaker 1: It was obviously a pre planned attack, and you have those when you get ready for debate prep Ramaswami saying we wouldn't hire or the Democrats wouldn't hire a conservative to host a debate, and he's like, why are we doing it with you?
00:03:05
Speaker 2: Guys?
00:03:06
Speaker 1: Tiger Carlson, Joe Rogan, Elon mush should be the ones moderating to this debate. This debate and we would have ten times of viewership. He's also right about that. It was a moment for him, There was a big moment. The problem is he gave it right back. There was a back and forth Ramaswami talking about TikTok, a Chinese communist app that people are stupid and put on their phones.
00:03:31
Speaker 2: Many kids use it.
00:03:33
Speaker 1: And what we witnessed recently was a massive purposeful influx of pro Hamas propaganda on the TikTok app. This is a app that's used by millions and millions of Americans, and what we saw documented was clearly China was wanting to not back Israel and wanted to back the terrorists.
00:03:56
Speaker 2: And so what did they do.
00:03:57
Speaker 1: They flooded the timeline says, you're scrolling with pro Hamas propaganda. Now, the VECK went after Niki Haley, the VEC went after Niki Haley's daughter.
00:04:10
Speaker 2: That was a bad move for him. It was a bad look for him.
00:04:14
Speaker 1: So all those people that just if you listen the first thing he said and you agreed with him, and you were like, all right, I kind of like this guy. There were many that were turned off by this back and forth.
00:04:24
Speaker 5: Well, I want to laugh at why Nikki Haley didn't answer your question, which is about looking at families in the eye. And the last debate she made fun of me for actually joining TikTok while her own daughter was actually using the app for a long time. So you might want to take care of your family first, aid the next generation of Americans are using and that's actually the point.
00:04:45
Speaker 3: You have her supporters propping her up. That's fine, here's the truth. The easy answer.
00:04:50
Speaker 5: Is actually to say that we're just going to ban one app.
00:04:52
Speaker 3: We got to go further.
00:04:53
Speaker 5: We have to ban any US company actually transferring US data to the Chinese.
00:04:59
Speaker 3: Here's a glory most people don't know.
00:05:01
Speaker 5: Airbnb hands over US user data to the CCP.
00:05:06
Speaker 3: Now that's a US owned company.
00:05:08
Speaker 5: So this is the problem when you have Republicans that temporarily go the way the winds blow. And now it's popular to talk tough on China.
00:05:15
Speaker 3: When she was you an.
00:05:15
Speaker 5: Ambassador called them literally her words, not my our great friend. You can't be fair weather fans of the right policy.
00:05:21
Speaker 3: Get to the root cause.
00:05:23
Speaker 5: Even US companies in Silicon Valley are regularly doing it.
00:05:28
Speaker 3: Cut the virtue signaling.
00:05:29
Speaker 5: The fact of the matter is Democrats are on TikTok today. The only person, one of the few people who is putting up content the way the actual algorithms work, speaking for pro Israel views for others. A more Republicans will join it, but stop US companies from turning over data to Chinese companies.
00:05:45
Speaker 4: Now, writers don't get to respond to personal attacks.
00:05:49
Speaker 6: But you do, thank you very much. You know, when he talks about me praising China, he doesn't know the fact that the reason China was praised was because I negotiated with China and Russia the largest set of sanctions against North Korea in a generation. We are the That is literally the reason North Korea stopped testing ballistic missiles. So I said, China did good on their part. That was an explosion.
00:06:10
Speaker 3: You said, because are your words not mine? And so just phone up to you would never change negotiation to the people about what you said.
00:06:23
Speaker 6: Every day, I thought, China and I did it, look at that by making sure any agency.
00:06:28
Speaker 3: Heads in you in.
00:06:29
Speaker 6: I did it by making sure that we called them out on human rights. I did it by making sure that we held them accountable on everything that they did. That's the reason we got out of Human Rights counsel that's the reason we called them out, and I have there's day I haven't.
00:06:47
Speaker 4: Afterwards, everybody else is hanging on the rules here, mister Romas, Senator.
00:06:51
Speaker 1: Scott, now you listen to that. And Nikki Haley called him scum. You're just scum after he started talking about his daughter. I think it's always a bad decision to talk about politicians' family members, especially when they're miners. When they're miners, they should be off limits. You should be able to talk and debate this on your own. And I think Ramaswami there made a big mistake because there's a lot of mothers out there that watched that that thought that that was probably one of the worst moments of the ninth if not the worst moment of the night. So he went from this amazing opening to immediately attacking Nikoely's daughter and using that to attack her.
00:07:35
Speaker 2: That was a bad look.
00:07:37
Speaker 1: And I thought early on, I was like, all right, maybe Wamaswamy's going to jump in the polls a little bit, And then immediately that happened, I was like, never mind.
00:07:44
Speaker 2: So who else had a good night?
00:07:46
Speaker 1: DeSantis in the center of the stage, and DeSantis has the most to lose when he's on that stage, but also he has a chance to gain. It was a good stage for him because there was fewer people. Now there doesn't seem to be so much of a let's go after Ron Desandra's mentality by the others on the stage that place to his advantage. It allowed for Desanders to actually have more time to talk about the issues. One of the issues was Desantas saying, hey, why should you choose him over Trump? Here's what he had to say about that in his opening All of You.
00:08:22
Speaker 4: Donald Trump is the first ex president in more than one hundred years to run for the White House again, and he remains popular among Republican primary voters as his legal challenges mount. Governor DeSantis, let me begin with you on this one. Speak to Republican voters who are supporting Donald Trump, why should you and not him be the Republican nominee to face Joe Biden a year from now?
00:08:46
Speaker 7: This country is in trouble, and the elites that have put us here, they don't care about you. They don't care that you're having to grapple with higher grocery prices or have higher gas prices. They don't care that your family's less secure because of the open border that's allowed drugs and even terrorists to come into this country.
00:09:03
Speaker 3: Well I care.
00:09:04
Speaker 7: I am not going to sit idly by and let this country continue its downward spiral. We need leadership, and we need it now. I'll take the hits, I'll take the arrows, I'll take the slings, because ultimately it's not about me, it's about you.
00:09:18
Speaker 3: I will fight for you.
00:09:20
Speaker 7: I will make sure to lead this country's revival, and I will win for you and your family.
00:09:26
Speaker 3: Action speak louder than words.
00:09:28
Speaker 7: We don't have time for excuses, and it's not something that we're going to be able to.
00:09:32
Speaker 3: Have all these distractions.
00:09:33
Speaker 7: As a veteran, I will get the job done now.
00:09:36
Speaker 3: If you look where we are now.
00:09:37
Speaker 7: It's a lot different than when we were in twenty sixteen. And Donald Trump's a lot different guy than he was in twenty sixteen. He owes it to you to be on this stage and explain why he should get another chance. He should explain why he didn't have Mexico pay.
00:09:52
Speaker 3: For the border wall.
00:09:53
Speaker 7: He should explain why he racked up so much debt. He should explain why he didn't drain the swamp, and he said Republicans were going to get tired of winning what we saw last night. I'm sick of Republicans losing.
00:10:05
Speaker 3: In Florida. I showed how it's done one year ago.
00:10:08
Speaker 8: Here.
00:10:09
Speaker 7: We want a historic victory, including a massive landslide right here in Miami Dade County.
00:10:15
Speaker 3: That's how we have to do it.
00:10:16
Speaker 7: So I promise you this, as the nominee next November, I'll get the job done, and as president, I will deliver time.
00:10:22
Speaker 3: Let me turn to Ambassador Lin.
00:10:26
Speaker 2: Now.
00:10:27
Speaker 1: The end there was probably the best part of his argument. I've been winning and if you're tired of losing. We didn't have a great election night two nights ago. It was average at best. Many think it was an opportunity where we should have won big. I agree with that, and we didn't. So what does that mean, Well, I mean we're losing a lot. You heard Vivek go after the RNC chairwoman the way that he did. That's a popular line. But the question is if you're a Trump supporter and you hear desantists that way, does it make you say, Okay, I really do like him, like maybe it is time for me to switch my vote. He mentioned that you heard the commentator left her Holt there saying, debate moderator saying, hey, wow, he's got a lot of legal challenges. That is true. Is that a reason to abandon him as a candidate? Is that a reason to stand by him even longer?
00:11:23
Speaker 8: Now?
00:11:23
Speaker 1: There was also another moment that happened, and it was a moment for DeSantis that others really liked. I like this. It was about standing with Israel. It was on the issue of Israel, and he said I would tell net Yahoo to finish it, referring to going after the terrorists that attacked his country.
00:11:41
Speaker 7: Listen, I would be telling Bbe finish the job once and for all with these butchers. Come on, they're terrorists, their massacring innocent people.
00:11:52
Speaker 3: They would wipe.
00:11:53
Speaker 7: Every Jew off the globe if they could. He cannot live with that threat right by his country. That Hamas should release every hostage and they should unconditionally surrender. I'm sick of hearing the media. I'm sick of hearing other people blame Israel just for defending itself. We will stand with Israel in word and indeed, in public and in private. And I can tell you, as governor, I actually did something about it Biden's and the black has been atrocious.
00:12:20
Speaker 3: We had Floridians that.
00:12:21
Speaker 7: Were over there after the attack.
00:12:23
Speaker 3: He left them stranded.
00:12:24
Speaker 7: They couldn't get flights out, so I scrambled resources in Florida. I sent planes over to Israel and I brought back over seven hundred people to safety. There could have been more hostages had we not acted.
00:12:37
Speaker 3: And I'll tell you this. I met the.
00:12:38
Speaker 7: First planeload when they came to Florida and one of the mothers pointed to a six year old daughter and she said, my daughter had been saying the last two nights, Mommy, I don't want to hear any more bombs, no more rockets. I just want to get back to Florida. So there's a difference between words and deeds.
00:12:54
Speaker 3: We acted and we save lives.
00:12:57
Speaker 2: That is presidential, no doubt about it.
00:12:59
Speaker 1: And that was a presidential type moment for him when he said it that way.
00:13:04
Speaker 2: I love that.
00:13:05
Speaker 1: There was also fight over Vladimir Putin and g and the idea. Nikki Haley said they are salivating for someone like Ramaswami to be the president. This Ramaswami, Nikki Haley wore clearly they're both fighting for the same voters. And I want you to hear one of the highlighted moments for Nicki Haley last night. Some said she thought it was too harsh, that she was too harsh.
00:13:27
Speaker 2: Others so they loved it.
00:13:28
Speaker 9: Listensident Zelenski's urgent new plea, where do you stand on more funds?
00:13:32
Speaker 3: I'm absolutely unpersuaded, and I'm.
00:13:34
Speaker 5: Actually enjoying watching the Ukraine hawks quietly delicately tiptoe back from their position as this thing has unwound into a disaster. The first half of this race, I was the only person standing for it. Now they're actually quietly coming around to being more cautious as they should. Level with the American people here. Ukraine is not a paragon of democracy. This is a country that has banned eleven opposition parties. It has consolidated all media into one state TV me ARM that's not democratic. It has threatened not to hold elections this year unless the US forks over more money. That is not democratic. It has celebrated a Nazi in its ranks, the comedian in Cargo Pans a man called Zelenski do it in their own ranks.
00:14:12
Speaker 3: That is not democratic.
00:14:14
Speaker 5: More facts for you that you won't hear from the mainstream in either party or the mainstream media the regions of Ukraine that are occupied by Russia right now in the donbas Lo, Hans, Donetsk, these are Russian speaking regions that have not even been part of Ukraine since twenty fourteen. That other people probably couldn't name those provinces for you, those are the hard facts. And so to frame this as some kind of battle between good versus evil, don't buy it. And I like the likes of the sharpest of the warhawks on Ukraine. Nikki Haley to have some accountability and answer, do you want to use US taxpayer money to fund the banning of Christians? That is actually what's happening. They're using the Ukrainian Orthodox Church. They have banned them. The Ukrainian Parliament just did this last week by our dollars, and I think you owe it to the.
00:15:01
Speaker 3: American people, Nikki, at least this one. Thank you.
00:15:05
Speaker 9: That's thank you, mister Ramaswami, thank you. We asked the questions, Ambassador of Valley, what is your take on more funding for Ukraine.
00:15:19
Speaker 6: I am telling you Putin and President she are salivating at the thought that someone like that could become president. They would love to think the matter don't. This is what I will tell you to talk.
00:15:34
Speaker 9: The ambassador has the floor, Thank you.
00:15:36
Speaker 6: The first thing I'll tell you is, we all remember what that thug did when he invaded Ukraine. We all know that half a million people have died because of Putin. And here is a freedom loving, pro American country that is fighting for its survival and its democracy. No, I don't think we should give them cash. I think we should give them the equipment and the ammunition to win. And I'll tell you if Biden had done it when they first asked for it, this war would be over. But let's also remember this, when you left Afghanistan in shambles and left them with a ton of weapons and money, it's not that we left, it's how we left. When you look at Ukraine, don't think for a second now everybody wants to move away from Ukraine. They'll want to move away from Israel a year from now. America can never be so arrogant to think we don't need friends. After nine to eleven, we needed a lot of friends. Now is the time to get partnerships. This unholy alliance between Russia, Ukraine and China is real. There is a reason that Taiwanese want us to support the Ukrainians. It's because they know that China's coming after them next. There is a reason Ukrainians want us to support Israelis because they know that if Iran wins, Russia winsad. We have to see the combination of this ambassador.
00:16:52
Speaker 8: Thank you.
00:16:53
Speaker 1: That was one of the big back and forth the night. Obviously, Haley going after Ramaswami, Ramaswami going out after Haley. Will it change anyone's mind? I don't know. Is there enough votes there to pull from one another to matter with this short stage? And notice I haven't really even mentioned Christy yet. Chris Christy last night is I actually think probably the best debater on the stage. And I'm just talking about style and understanding how to read the room.
00:17:22
Speaker 2: He's a very, very, very talented debater.
00:17:25
Speaker 1: Chris Christy had a night where it was clear he was auditioning not to become the President of the United States of America, but he was auditioning to become a talk show host on MSNBC.
00:17:37
Speaker 2: Why do I say that because of answers like this.
00:17:41
Speaker 4: Are you and not former President and Trump?
00:17:44
Speaker 2: Well, Leicester.
00:17:45
Speaker 8: Look, you said it at the beginning of the debate. We are dealing with extraordinarily important issues facing this country right now. We have our greatest ally in the Middle East under fire from its terrorist group that has committed to wiping them and every Jewish person in this world off the map. We have Ukraine with Vladimir Putin, a communist KGB dictator who wants to put the old band back together. He's starting in Ukraine and he's going to move to the Baltics and Poland after that. We have inflation in this country that is choking, choking every American family that wants to try to rise up and give their children a better life. And tonight we need to decide which president is going to be the one to tackle the big issues.
00:18:40
Speaker 3: Who's going to make this.
00:18:41
Speaker 8: Country look once again, not just inward, but look outward at the world and say America is the country, the indispensable nation that makes this a safer world and in a safer world, American innovation, American hard work has always been the thing that has driven our country to greater things. I'm going to be the president who will do those big things. We're not going to be small and I'll say this about Donald Trump. Anybody who's going to be spending the next year and a half of their life focusing on keeping themselves out of jail in courtrooms cannot lead this party or this country.
00:19:16
Speaker 2: It needs to be said.
00:19:17
Speaker 3: Playing the governor, thank.
00:19:18
Speaker 1: You, let me turn this centator, this skin now, I said that that was a answer for a TV show, right trying to get his own show. I think that's his end game here. Let me prove why I believe that. And I'm going to prove it obviously very quickly, because you can't make this up. First show he does MSNBC the morning after debate. What did he say on MSNBC knowing that audience listen.
00:19:43
Speaker 10: So what do you make of the Democrats' big wins in Kentucky, Ohio, and Virginia on Tuesday night? And what do Republicans need to do to try and even compete?
00:19:57
Speaker 8: Well, it shows that he's continued electoral and political poison, Mika. I mean, you know, the Daniel Cameron race a Kentucky is one example, but in Virginia as well, even with a popular governor in Glenn Youngkin, you can't overcome the stench of Donald Trump's political narcissism. That's the bottom line. And you know that's why. You know, folks at the RNC, who are two thirds of them are Donald Trump's supporters. They don't want any out of opposition to him on a debate stage. But you know the fact is, I'm not going anywhere, and I'm going to continue to bring the case to him and against him because he's wrong for our country and wrong for our party.
00:20:42
Speaker 1: Wrong for our country and wrong for our party. I'll continue to bring the case to him and against him. Now, Chris Christy has no chance of winning this thing, So why are you still up there? I really do believe this is straight up for his next gig.
00:20:59
Speaker 2: And his lines.
00:21:00
Speaker 1: Anybody who's spending time focusing to keep himself out of jail cannot lead this country.
00:21:06
Speaker 2: You just gave a game plan to these.
00:21:08
Speaker 1: Marxists, Communist socialists in our government in the deep state.
00:21:12
Speaker 2: If you use Chris Christie's.
00:21:16
Speaker 1: Definition of success or failure, then the Democrats are just going to indict every single and go after legally in civil cases, whatever it takes to get people off the debate stage and say, oh, you can't be president anymore, or you can't run for office anymore. You can't be a center anymore, you can't be a governor anymore. That's all they're going to do. They're going to do this over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again. They're going to keep saying it, and they're going to keep doing it if it means they can take people out and then they don't even have to run against our best candidates. That's why Chris Christie is such a useful idiot. He is a useful idiot for the Democrat. And by the way, they'll even smack him around on the issue of abortion. For example, it got very heated with.
00:22:08
Speaker 2: You know, Mia, whatever the hell her last name is.
00:22:12
Speaker 1: She said this about the abortion issue last night or this morning, I should say, to Chris Christy and smacked him around for flip flopping as she described it.
00:22:21
Speaker 10: Listen, Yeah, another issue that you talked about last night was abortion. You and I disagree on this issue, but the one thing you keep saying is you keep talking about abortion in the ninth month, which is allowed in your state. And last time I asked you to bring me the case where a woman walked into a doctor's office in the ninth month and said I've decided to don't want to have a baby. Please take this out. It doesn't happen. Less than one percent of abortions are performed after twenty one weeks, and if there is a situation like that, it's because there is a massive emergency. So I just think of all the candidates, you've been the most honest about Trump and election integrity. But in this one respect, I have to call you out because you're not being honest on the issue. We can debate abortion, but there isn't abortion in the ninth month.
00:23:13
Speaker 8: Mika, you're the one who's not being honest. I did not say there was abortion in the ninth month. What I said was that the law in New Jersey and New York and Illinois and California permits it. And you can't deny that that's the truth because it is and so and so.
00:23:31
Speaker 2: Look, it doesn't know.
00:23:32
Speaker 8: Don't call somebody a liar, don't call don't By the way, no, no, no, Mika, nor did I say that issue?
00:23:42
Speaker 2: Well, well, let's have it on.
00:23:44
Speaker 8: Well, let's have an honest discussion about it doesn't happen.
00:23:46
Speaker 3: You answer my.
00:23:47
Speaker 8: Question, why don't you answer my question, does the law permit it in those states? Well, that's all I said, So I don't understand what your problem is with that. In the end, if that's what the law permits, that's what the people who passed those laws.
00:23:59
Speaker 3: Said, is okay.
00:24:01
Speaker 2: Is legally come with Chris, that's.
00:24:02
