Because. And I say this because your moral core is magnificent. And I know you probably don't want it. You don't want to think about it, but I just feel like I would feel a lot better with you leading the FBI, the CIA, the NBC, the. Everybody that's just. That's just me. So I'm just saying, should it be floated, please think about it. And under the radar. You have to get Vice President Harris elected to. I'm just, I'm being. You're putting it out there in the universe. You're putting it in the universe because that's how we do things. You've woken up from a coma. You've been in a coma since, say, 2006. You ask what's been going on in politics, and you say the host of the Apprentice has been the president and he's running for president again. He was almost murdered by his political opponents. Turns out he was actually a really good president. He was probably the best president of our lifetime. The Cheney family is campaigning for the most liberal leftist Democrat ever to run for president. And the women of the View are campaigning for the daughter of Dick Cheney to be the head of the CIA. Did I miss anything? Oh, you want to go back into your coma now? Okay, that's fine. Methinks the realignment is real. Methinks that the political realignment that we've heard so much about over the past four to eight years is real. Whoopi Goldberg telling Liz Cheney, you have such a strong moral core. A woman who has never seen a country in the Middle east, she did not want to bomb the daughter of the man the Democrats called Darth Vader for at least a decade, more than a decade, really. You have such a strong moral core. Why she has such a strong moral core because she has betrayed every principle she's ever pretended to hold, other than desiring to invade other countries. Other than that, though, she's betrayed every principle she's ever pretended to hold and betrayed the loyalty and trust of her fellow Republicans who have helped her in her political career. And now the ladies of the View want a Cheney to run the CIA. That's a realignment, folks. When the head of the Teamsters doesn't endorse the Democrat, that's a political realignment. When Joe Rogan, who is the most mainstream podcaster, endorses Trump, the man that we were told is the most toxic Republican. Maybe you can endorse a Bush or something, but you can't endorse a Trump. That's a realignment. I guess this is why I'm so happy about the official Rogan endorsement, is because Rogan is signaling, hey, it's okay to endorse Trump. Rogan is the emblem of the political middle. Rogan is the avatar of the average voter, the median voter. And Rogan is saying, I'm with Trump. It's that meme that Elon posted on X that many people have posted recently, which is, you got someone standing on the left, the political left, and there's a tug of war between the left and the right. And the person on the left has been pulled over to the right because the left has gone so far to the left. And now he didn't really move. It's at the center of gravity moved. He said, I guess I'm on the right now. I was on the left, but I guess I'm on the right now because of how far to the extremes the left has gone. That's it. Rogan hasn't really changed. Elon Musk hasn't really changed. Bobby Kennedy hasn't really changed. In a way, it's kind of sad that all of these guys are now considered on the right. It can be helpful to us now, and we're going to hopefully win this election. But it just shows you how much ground the left has taken, and this realignment leads to all sorts of crazy things, like the women of the View endorsing a Cheney for the head of CIA. Now, what would happen if. I hate to even express this thought, but what would happen if Kamala got elected? Beyond the ideological battles, there's just a question. Kamala Harris is. Let's say she's the president. She's sitting across from Vladimir Putin. She's sitting negotiating with Mohammed bin Salman, the crown prince of Saudi Arabia. She's sitting negotiating with Xi Jinping. Beyond ideology, there is a basic level of intelligence and education and competence that is required to do that job. Does Kamala possess it? Well, I'll give you a little vignette. You tell me what you think. This just leaked to the New York Times. Apparently, Kamala Harris did a podcast last summer with a guy named Kareem Rama. He has a TikTok show and an Instagram show called Subway Takes. This interview never aired. It's just being leaked now to the New York Times and being reported elsewhere over the summer, especially when the Gaza war was a big, hot political issue. This interviewer, Rama, asked Kamala. Rama asked Kamala what she thought about Gaza. He said this, according to the Times. There's something going on in the world that 100% of Muslims care about. She said she didn't want to talk about Gaza. She said she wanted to talk about light, funny little topics like you'd ordinarily see on TikTok or Instagram. So when her team was negotiating this interview, she said, no, I don't want to talk about Gaza. I want to talk about fun little stuff like whether people should take their shoes off on airplanes. Tee hee hee. I'm so fun. I'm so relatable. So that was what they agreed to talk about. Then when Kamala sat down for this interview, she says, no, I'm not going to talk about anything real. I'm not going to talk about Gaza, and I'm not even going to talk about the stupid triviality that we agreed to talk about whether or not it's acceptable to take one's shoes off on an airplane. She said she wanted to give her hot take. That bacon is a spice. To the Muslim interviewer, I don't know how worldly you are familiar with world religions. Muslims generally frown upon bacon. It is haram. She says, okay, of all the things I can talk about to distract from the real issue that I don't want to talk about, namely the war in Gaza, I'm going to bring up inadvertently, maybe the most offensive thing I could talk about. With this guy. So she says, ha, ha ha. There's no video, unfortunately, the interview never aired. But I'm just imagining, from what I've read of this transcript, she says, she goes, ha, ha ha. You know, I think bacon is a spice. Ha ha ha, ha ha. And she does a little cackle. And Rama reportedly responds, I don't know. I don't know. You've lost me. I'm not familiar with bacon. And then she keeps going. She doesn't get it. She doesn't get that bacon is maybe not a great area of common ground with the Muslim interviewer. She goes, think about it. It's pure flavor. Ha, ha, ha ha. And this guy's just like, can we what? Can we talk about something else? This interview was so bad, it never aired. The guy's sitting down with the presidential candidate, the nominee of the Democrat Party she eventually came to be. And this guy says, no, I'm not going to air it. That's how bad this is. Then when Rama asked, he paused the interview. He asked, Kamala Harris, can we just get back to some other topic? She decided she wanted to talk about how much she likes anchovies on pizza. And according to the Times, in this unpublished video that they've seen, Rama says, well, I'm 100% unsure on both of those. This woman would not be able to negotiate the Abraham Accords. I'm pretty confident. I'm not sure this woman would be able to negotiate a Diet Coke at McDonald's. This woman is not fit to be president. She does not possess the rational faculties, require the judgment, the prudence, just any knowledge of anything, basically, to be president. That's something that really worries me about this election. Her policies would be awful. She would want to kill all the babies and trans all the kids. That's bad. I know that that's bad. All of the ideological aspects are. But she also just is not competent, and she is not knowledgeable about anything. And I'm not sure she possesses the requisite intelligence even to become knowledgeable were she so determined. If this woman is elected, forget about the fact that she's a woman. And that presents, in itself challenges when you're dealing with guys like Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping. It just does. A feminist might say, that's not fair, but it just does present those problems. But it'd be one thing if she were the Iron Lady. It'd be one thing if she were Margaret Thatcher. She's not. She's Kamala Harris. And our enemies will take the opportunity to eat us for lunch. If this woman becomes the president. Now back to Elon on Joe Rogan. Before we get out of here, Elon does Joe Rogan's show. He did not smoke a big spliff this time, as he did, I believe, the last time he was on Joe Rogan's show. But he. He also expressed some worries about this election that are unique, say, in this election compared to all of the other elections in his lifetime. Namely, Elon fears that if Trump does not win this election, we might not have any more elections. Well, I'll say it again, man. I think this was the last election. If Trump doesn't win, this is the last election. I think you're right. Yeah. I think you're right. I think people, and a lot of people are waking up and realize that that have been lifelong Democrats, guys like Bill Ackman, guys like Chamath, Tulsi Gabbard switched over to the Republicans. Like, there's a lot of people who, their whole life they've been left wing, and they realize, like, I can't do this anymore. You and I used to be Democrats. Yeah. So, yeah, yeah, it's nuts. It's nuts, man. And, you know, I mean, I think the things we want are just pretty basic. You know, it's like we want individual liberties and we want opportunity. We want America to remain the land of freedom and opportunity, so we maximize people's personal freedom. The government can't barge into your house and kill your pet. That's up. And, you know, and that you succeed as a function of your. Of your. Of your hard work and talent, not anything else. Not race, religion. Okay, this is a fair enough point. I think Elon is expressing, I think quite clearly that he's a liberal. He is a liberal. Some of us are conservatives, but he is a liberal. He says, I want to maximize individual autonomy. I didn't leave my party. My party left me. Joe Rogan saying the same thing. Tulsi Gabbard is saying much the same thing. Bobby Kennedy is saying much the same thing. Something has shifted. And then the point that Elon is making here, I think is really important. Does he literally mean there won't be election day in four years? I don't think that's what he means literally. He's saying that the left's program, especially of open borders and just declaring foreigners citizens, even against the law, that practically speaking, that means that Americans will not have control over their government anymore. They won't, for all intents and purposes, really be able to elect their leaders anymore. If the leaders can just choose to make however many millions of people they want into American citizens.

My favorite comment Yesterday is from casewojo6186 who said my life was a lot better under Trump. Quite frankly, I took it for granted. I did not know how bad things would get under Biden and I'm positive will get even worse under communist Kamala. Yeah, I think that's true. The presidency does not determine every facet of your life. It's not the most important thing in your Life. The most important thing in your life is probably your relationship with God first and foremost and followed by your relationship with your family and your local community. I mean, these things are immediately more important. Your job, what you're doing, even your leisure activities. But these presidential elections are so important because they form the background of so much of that activity. When goods and services cost 30% more because the wrong guy became president three and a half years ago, that's a problem. That's gonna affect how you can send your kids to school. That's gonna affect what kind of food you can buy for your family. Okay? When America is dragged into wars, because instead of having the good foreign policy president with the most successful foreign policy in our lifetime, President Trump, you have some other guy or some other woman, and all of a sudden America's bleeding money, bleeding blood through our service members. The world is on the move, there's war breaking out. That affects you, that affects the society, that affects the background in which all those other activities take place. A lot of people take it for granted. Don't take it for granted. Now back to Elon Musk. Elon expressed a view on the Rogan show that is not unique to him. Bill Maher recently expressed the same view. Elon said to Joe, one of the things that drives him craziest about what the Democrats are doing right now is they are knowingly peddling hoaxes about Trump. Including in the last few days of the campaign, when you have deliberate, concerted, repeated pushing of hoaxes, you're like, wait a second. Like, come on, man, this is too far. And you're supposed to be the good guys. You're supposed. And you claim to be the good guys. I'm like, exactly. You're supposed to be the progressives. Yes. The Dems are like, we're the good guys. We're the honest people. No, no, hang on. You can't claim to be the good guys. You can't claim to be the honest people if you're deliberately post pushing hoaxes that have been debunked thoroughly. Yeah, or like even Snopes, which is a liberal thing, says it's bogus. Yeah, like the fine people hoax. Obama just said that on stage. Just said that. I was like, what? The flying. He doesn't give a. He doesn't give a. They're just. They're just flat out lie. Flat out lie. How about the other? Notice the distinction here. Elon's talking about deliberate hoaxes. He's not saying. When you just say things that aren't true. When Your ignorant lesbian leftist niece from Swarthmore who doesn't know anything, shows up to Thanksgiving and starts mouthing off about how Trump called Nazis fine people. It's annoying and you should correct her if you can in a gentle, loving way. But she doesn't know. She's just ignorant. She's just saying something that isn't true because she believes media propaganda. Not so. When, as Elon and Joe are referencing here, Barack Obama shows up on the campaign trail a few days ago. Barack Obama, say what you will about him, he's an intelligent guy, he's a pretty well read guy. He knows that it has been debunked time and time again, even by liberal outlets. Trump did not call Nazis. Find people at Charlottesville, they've seen the tape, they've read the transcript, they know that isn't true. But Barack Obama lies anyway. Maybe you're Muslim American or Jewish American and you are heartbroken and furious about the ongoing bloodshed in the Middle east and worried about the rise of antisemitism. Why would you place your faith in somebody who instituted a so called Muslim ban, who sat down for pleasantries with Holocaust deniers.
