This is the final full week before an election. And for those of you that have grown exhausted, the campaign ads, the mailers, the yard signs, it is all coming to an end, we hope. It's very quiet right now. It's all quiet on the Western front, as some people would say. And President Donald Trump is completely monopolizing the airwaves and the narrative. I go to foxnews.com right now and I see an ad right here for Joe Biden. I then see an ad not for Donald Trump, but Trump talking uninterrupted on the Fox News feed. So Joe Biden is spending massive amounts of money trying to buy television advertising, trying to get himself on television. Yet within the same moment in time, President Donald Trump buys hundreds of millions of dollars in ads by just doing events. Donald Trump did a full schedule of events this last weekend. President Trump was in Ohio. He was in New Hampshire. He was in Florida. He was in Wisconsin. He was in Bangor, Maine. And today, President Trump is doing three events in Pennsylvania. No one will outwork President Trump. I think we knew that, but what I don't think we knew that I am trying to unpack here this hour is why is Joe Biden doing nothing? Now, it'd be one thing to kind of do a Joe Biden event where you have six people in circles and you kind of just have a conversation. The networks would still carry that, by the way. There's a couple explanations for this, but I'll just first admit it's very bizarre. It's bizarre that Senator Harris and Joe Biden, eight days out from the election, are choosing not to be visible. So typically in a presidential race or any race, you try to get in front of the cameras and get in front of as many people as possible. I just spoke at a great event in Calvary Chapel, Huntington Beach. It's packed. People around the grounds, people on the ground. They're coming out of the windows. And they said they do an event on the beach every single year where all the elected officials that want to get elected, they come to their event because there's 20,000 people there. And the pastor, Pastor Joe said something so obvious. He said, they're all there because they want to get in front of all the people to get elected. I said, of course they do. I thought to myself a couple days later, and I thought to myself today, why isn't Joe Biden doing that? Why isn't Joe Biden just taking the free and earned media so that he can get in front of people? I mean, it's one thing to call a lid after the debate. Maybe he needs a full day to heal. Maybe he needs a full day to recuperate. Maybe he needs a weekend to recuperate. But full days of doing nothing. Something's not right here. So there's a couple explanations here. If we are trying to go to Joe Biden campaign headquarters, let's try to put ourselves in his position. Let's try to put ourselves in what? The discussions they are having. There are three possible explanations to this. Number one, the Joe Biden campaign believes through internal and public polling and their cash advantage that they have such an exorbitant lead that all they could possibly do at this moment is make it worse. That they're going to shelter in place. They will not answer questions, they will keep to themselves. They will not try to go public. They are going to let their multi billion dollar cash advantage through all the outside groups and their own campaign try to get them to election day. That they have such a lead that there is nothing they could possibly do to contribute. That in fact they might be of the belief that the more the American people see them, the more their numbers will go down. That might be one explanation. A second explanation is that Joe Biden literally cannot campaign. That whatever they injected him with last week, there was enough of that. They don't want to overexpose him and he actually is not capable of campaigning. The third explanation is this, is that any exposure that Joe Biden would have right now would mean that the media would have access to him and they'd be able to ask him about Hunter Biden and the laptop. The Federal Bureau of Investigation interviewing Tony Bobulinski, which by the way, should be headline news on every newspaper across the country. And the fact that it isn't is a dark day for democracy. It really is because there was more media coverage focused on Ivanka Trump's son allegedly not making a Lego castle after the RNC speech than on whether or not Hunter Biden sold out our country to China. Why is it that we sent 15 FBI agents to go investigate Bubba Wallace, the NASCAR driver, 15 FBI agents to go investigate that. We conclude that it wasn't a noose. Yet we can't send 15 FBI agents to go interview Hunter Biden. So I think Joe Biden is stuck in a very difficult position here. And if I were to put myself in his position, I would argue that Joe Biden feels as if he's in a catch 22 position. He goes public, it exposes himself and he could plummet in the polls. He stays in hiding. It gives Donald Trump an opportunity for an uninterrupted surge. And that's exactly where we are right now in the state of the race. It's bizarrely quiet. I have a prediction the media in the next 72 hours is going to try to cook up some story based on race, based on allegations, to try to put Trump on defense. They see what's happening here when the President is doing three events a day uninterrupted. President Trump is not taking questions from the pool. He is just blitzing the country. He's on message. And right now, for example, on foxnews.com, he doesn't have to buy the advertising, which cost hundreds of thousands of dollars per minute. He just speaks. So what? Cash? Who cares if Joe Biden has the cash advantage? And this is what doesn't always get talked about. When President Trump goes to small towns in Pennsylvania, for example, he's going to Allentown today, he's going to a town I've never heard of, which is called Lilitz, Pennsylvania. All of the local newspapers, all of the local radio will air his speech uninterrupted. As he says it, they're just honored to have him in their town. And that stuff is more respected and widely read than cnn. One of the things that the Democrat political consultant class get wrong so often is that the way that these little towns operate is first on the local school bulletin, the local newspaper, the local radio guy. What's the guy at the deli saying? They care much less about what CNN says. Who cares if CNN is not covering these rallies? But President Trump doing three events in Pennsylvania. I just wonder why Joe Biden isn't doing one. And I think it's because he's in a position if he does, he gets hurt and if he doesn't, he gets hurt. So he's playing it safe. We know in politics when you try to play it safe, you usually lose. The only reason you would play it safe is if you're in a state like Delaware or Massachusetts and your lead is up by 35 points, then you would quarantine to victory. But that is not the state of the race. And if Joe Biden has convinced himself that he truly has a six point structural lead, then he's looking at data that I'm not looking at and he's communicating to a population that I do not think exists. I was just talking to normal suburban voters. They weren't MAGA hat wearing people. They weren't five hour a day political consuming patriots. They were just normal voters that could be Swing voters, but they were on board for President Trump because in just the Dallas area, oil and natural gas contributes over $80 million in tax revenue to Dallas county alone. Better schools, better bridges, better community centers. And Joe Biden, I think, learned a lesson in the debate against Donald Trump that talking is hard, that communicating actually might put his campaign in jeopardy. I look at the publicly available schedule for President Trump and it would be difficult for any human being, let alone a man in his mid-70s who just overcame the Chinese coronavirus to blitz the country in 30 degree weather, in hailstorms. He's up in Bangor, Maine. Love Bangor, Maine. One of my favorite places on the planet. President Donald Trump has committed himself to one thing in the next. Might out smear me. You might outspend me, but you will not outwork me. And I think he'll be richly rewarded for that. I do. I think that campaigns have changed in so many different ways where people get text messages and you have peer to peer text messaging and digital ads and all these different tools in the toolkit. But President Trump and his focus on in person rallies is still the most effective way to persuade voters and get out the vote. What is the Democrat narrative right now? And I think President Trump actually captured the Democrat narrative perfectly. He said it over the weekend in his final event in Wisconsin, where we are right now doing this broadcast where President Trump said and Joe Biden said that we're gonna have a dark winter. What a terrible message. Perfect capture there, Mr. President. It is a dark message. People rarely go out of their way to go vote for darkness. Thanks, Joe Biden. You're trying to sell misery to the American people. And Joe Biden was asked some questions this weekend. You see, when Joe Biden speaks doesn't always go well. He confused President Trump with George Bush. But most importantly, he snapped at a reporter asking about Hunter's laptop and emails and then pivots to Trump not having a plan. This is cut six. Let's see if we can get cut six of Joe Biden snapping out at a reporter. Play tape.
