Transcripts

good evening from New York welcome to PE

Morgan uncensored whether we monarchist

Brits like to admit it or not the

president of the United States is the

single most important person in the

world commanding the world's mest

military and holding the perrings of its

biggest economy the president could end

Israel's war in Gaza with a phone call

or decide if Ukraine gets the backing it

needs to beat Putin at least that's the

general idea but the current Commander

in Chief is 81 seemingly going on 181 of

a lifetime of distinguished public

service as a pragmatic politician and in

my view a thoroughly decent human being

President Biden looks increasingly unfit

for service and with the president

invisible decline his reelection

campaign is well transitioning you might

say it pronouns are changing before our

very eyes the two most important women

in President Biden's life have been sent

out to jump start the 2024 race wildly

unpopular VP carela Harris said this

we've got 10 months to go until the

election M and increasingly and you've

seen it even just this week um we are

all starting to narrow in on what this

election will mean yeah and it's going

to be the choice

between what is about respecting our

democracy what is about competence

versus

chaos well the vice president is Right

competence is crucially important but

her own boss has trouble getting up the

stairs and csing to find a way off a

stage his frequent verbal and physical

stumbles are the subject to both comedy

and concern most people responded with

laughter and derision for example when

first lady Jill Biden said this about

him I see Joe every day I see him out

you know traveling around this country I

see his Vigor I see his energy to those

who say I can't vote for Joe Biden he's

too old what do you say I say his age is

an

asset H energy and vigor not quite what

I'm seeing you can make a plausible case

for the wise old Statesman with a firm

hand on the tiller but campaigning on

Biden's Vigor May well FastTrack Donald

Trump who does have a lot of vigor to

the White House Now 77 Trump's no spring

chicken himself but with his diet

defying Swagger and Showmanship most

people on his side seem to be believing

him when he says things like this I feel

like I'm about 35 years old I actually

feel better now than I did 30 years ago

tell me is that crazy I feel better now

and I think cognitively I'm better than

I was 20 years ago I don't know

why that is a slightly more debatable

subject Mr Trump but a whopping 77% of

Americans both Republican and Democrats

believe that Biden is simply too old to

run the country almost 70% think he's

mismanaged the crisis at the southern

border there 133% say they're

financially better off on his watch a

this stage of his term he's the least

popular US president in recorded history

and this stuff matters us politics is

Inc almost hysterically polarized to the

rest of us outside America but most

voters are in fact ready to be persuaded

white working-class voters ditched the

Democrats to propel Trump to office in

2016 now more and more Hispanic and

black voters are shifting Republican too

Biden says he's the only man who's ever

beaten Trump and that's true but right

now he may be the only one who can lose

to Trump in November well I'm joined by

my Super PAC here in the studio New York

co-host of The Breakfast Club

Charlamagne the God host of the Rubin

report Dave Rubin I'm a Democrat

strategist and Fox News contributor

Jessica tof who I could hear her lips

pursing as I read that mon loud I could

feel them person I appreciate though I

saw you tempered it a bit whoever put it

in the pror was harsher than you were I

could feel the pursing I was raining

back in real time um let me start with

you Jessica because I like Joe Biden

personally I think he's got a lot of

very admirable qualities as a human

being and his own story you know the

fact he lost loost his wife and a baby

when he was just a senator he then lost

another son anyone that can do that and

still do the job he's doing will always

have my admiration but there is no doubt

he is in real trouble here is there any

doubt I mean can you paint a picture

that isn't as Grim as the one I painted

oh I definitely can do that and I've

been preparing for three and a half

minutes to get chance I I'm not going to

start by denying that the age factor is

massive in all of this and I think that

people's concerns as well about KLA

Harris and her Readiness to take over

informs that if there was a hugely

popular vice president kind of waiting

in the wings I think things might feel a

bit different for people but 81 is 81

there are some 81 year olds we all watch

Warren Buffett right MC jagu is 80 yes

nearly 81 he would have a different kind

of agenda for the country but yes he

does that be quite a popular one yeah

that would be pretty I wouldn't hate it

um but there is a problem going on right

now with media coverage

of the Biden presidency and there are

problems with the Biden campaign what

are the problems so I'll start with

media coverage everybody knows now that

you want to print stories that get

clicks and negative stories are the ones

that do with it even people who are huge

supporters of the president focus on all

the polls that are negative most people

wouldn't know that if you went to the

real clear politics homepage and clicked

on polls the average has Joe Biden down

just one percentage point to Trump you

would think that he was getting trounced

you look at swing state polls and you'd

see that in a lot of the Swing States

like Pennsylvania for instance which is

going to be a huge deal he's up

massively we only talked about the fact

that he was down in one Michigan poll

last week in terms of the economic news

The Wall Street Journal our very own

Wall Street Journal here at newscorp um

had a hugely optimistic set of

editorials out there 62% of Americans

think the next year so 2024 election

year is going to be better for them when

are they going to go and vote in

November that's a lot of time for this

economic recovery to really settle in

for people but no one wants to talk

about that it's not popular it's not

good clickbait the second part about the

campaign and this is where I think the

Obama folks who have been perhaps too

publicly critical I think of the Biden

campaign their ground game is not

visible to folks they don't feel like

they're there in Nevada in Arizona in

Georgia in these states that we

desperately need to win and they are

working on that and I think that the

president himself needs to be more

visible I if I was working in the white

house I would have him out there all the

time I understand you might be resing

stumble I wouldn't I do what they did

with him last time I keep him keep him

in a dungeon I mean look here's the

thing I think the problem it's not

excuse me it's not his age I think that

Joe Biden's problem is the clear

senility yeah was going with his age

like I said I met mck Jagger last summer

absolutely bursting with the vi and

vigor that Jill wants us to believe she

sees it go look Piers do any of us

sitting at this table or anyone watching

this think that he could run one shift

at McDonald's and I don't mean that as a

shot for someone that works at

McDonald's

there but but I don't think he could I

think a lot of senior citizens could

because I don't think it's an age thing

I agree with you it's it's a cognitive D

J Collins at the Emmys stole the show

he's 90 years old good friend of mine

she looks about 50 and she has the

mental acuity of a 50-year old she has

vim and vigor so I Jill Biden is right

to say it's about VI and vigor but her

husband doesn't exude it well look let's

put it this way you opened by saying

something about ailing Joe Biden and I

thought oh I haven't looked at my phone

in 20 minutes did something it's a

general aing it's ailing yes we all know

it the wandering off when they put get

him off the plane and the confusion he

literally on camera last what was it two

years ago said let's go let's go Brandon

like something is not right we all know

it and I would say respectfully in terms

of the polls and everything people don't

vote on what really matters we vote on

what we can

right and I think because of people are

going Donald Trump he seems back there's

energy there and there's just no energy

with nobody nobody likes Kamala that's

but Trump has lost every election except

2016 I mean he's loser and yeah right

right to the point the Democrats decided

to finish him off with 91 criminal

charges and thought this will do him

he's down he's wounded and and it's had

the complete opposite effect he has used

that to the Marty the victim it has

fueled a resurgent trump and you cannot

deny I mean I've seen people try to

downplay what happened to Iowa but if

that have been Joe Biden who'd done that

at Iowa you'd be saying this is

unbelievable it's a landslide it's

amazing he's killing them right Trump is

back and I think will definitely be the

nominee regard unless there some

extraordinary Twist of events he's

exuding the air of someone on a mission

he's got vim and vigor and whether you

love him or hate him and it's equal

doses with Trump you got to say hey

Trump V Biden in November I could see

Trump winning that is there anything

about Iowa that makes you say maybe uh

Republicans should pivot and go to

somebody like a Nikki Haley maybe like

when you see that she picks up you know

a lot of Democrats a lot of Independents

you think that they're doing themselves

a disservice by maybe not getting behind

her because you know the GOP is going to

fall in line and she's somebody who

seems like they can pick up votes from

from both sides yeah I mean but you

yourself you made news by talking about

the vi Vigor claimed by Joe Biden didn't

you I mean you're yeah I don't see the

vi you're not whatever VI Vigor whatever

it is yeah and I had I had a great time

on your breakfast club show yesterday

and it was it was really enlightening

conversation we had but you know it's

not that I like you said to you are you

telling people to vote Trump no it's not

for me to tell people how to vote in

this country and I've been very critical

of trump in the last since certainly

over all the whole the stolen election

nonsense the January 6th thing I wasn't

buying into any of that and in a way I

felt that was disqualifying but we are

where we are it didn't disqualify him he

could actually go to prison and still be

president of the United States

constitutionally so we're into

completely Uncharted Territory all I do

feel is the more the Democrats have

tried to kill him off particularly with

all these criminal charges the more that

even Republicans that don't like him

have gone you know what it is a Witch

Hunt the Liberals are trying to nail

this guy is one of us we're going to

back him and so it's been self-defeating

MH a bit like the Russian collusion

thing yeah I I agree with that and I

think the interesting thing is if you're

going to use language like you know this

is going to be the end of democracy as

we know it then there needs to be a

sense of urgency like you said when is

the ground game going to start why is

the ground came just starting now if

it's going to be you know the end of

democracy and I think that's what scares

people too if if we see the the clearing

to me anyway to clear and present danger

that could be a second Trump presidency

is the Biden Harris ticket a winnable

ticket I'm a person who voted for Joe

Biden in 2020 so I don't think it's

anything wrong with asking that question

you think it's a winable ticket tick I

don't know when I look at the polls I

don't think so you know I think that uh

a 60 plus year old no incumbent

president with this poll rating that

Biden's currently at in the low 30s has

ever been reelected yeah I don't I don't

I mean yeah when I look at it I don't

think so me you never know you can you

can say it's 50/50 but I think a 60 plus

year old Joe Biden you know with the

things he's done as far as like you know

the infrastructure Bill even even the

student loan forgiveness you know the

way the economy is now I think a 60

something year old Joe Biden Jo he also

said to you he also said to you on your

show which again headlines make a lot of

headlines jealous um but he said if

you're black and you don't vote for me

you're not black he meant it was a joke

but what did you think when he said that

was that was that a sense of entitlement

a bit of arrogance about the

African-American vote I think that you

know he has too many uh black friends

around him and they made him feel

comfortable enough to make that joke I

feel like he probably had a bunch of

black people around him who have said

that exact language cuz when they say

that they're saying that hey if you vote

for Trump you're literally voting you

know against your own interest as a

black person and I think he's heard that

a bunch of times so he thought that that

would been a nice little let me ask you

a specific thing Dave about this right

so Trump this is where I have a problem

with Trump every time I sort of you know

I he makes me laugh right he just does

when he said that thing on the eve of

Iowa that even if it kills you come out

and

vote world yeah but watching watching po

liberals lose their mind when he does

that stuff makes me chuckle right I I've

seen myself as pretty down the middle

but I just think I think he's funny and

he's and he can make people laugh but

when he says this I don't laugh right he

said the president of the United States

on Truth social yesterday president of

the United States must have full

immunity without which it would be

impossible for him her to properly

function any mistake even if well-

intended would be met with almost

certain indictment by the opposing body

at ter men for even events that cross

the line must fall under total immunity

I so I so I tweeted so if President

Biden orders the immediate assassination

of you Donald Trump that's okay is it

that's covered what you're explaining is

the true magic of Donald Trump whether

you love his policies or not because on

one hand you're going well there are

certain lines when he pokes fun at the

but he means this no no so but so your

line now is he put it in quotes crosses

the line I can tell I can tell when I

can tell when he's laughing and joking

So You Think You think when he says

cross the line what he meant was I can

take out Joe Biden president no no that

was me suggesting that that's where you

take the argument but what do you think

he means I think would kill one ofal OPP

or get could I think he's actually as

always with Trump his self-interest he

wants to basically make sure he can't he

means Jack Smith go home yeah that's

what he means and he's and if the cor

alary is my political opponent could

kill someone he then wants to talk about

2016 when we all ran around and said you

know he could shoot someone in the

middle of Fifth Avenue and and his

supporters wouldn't care by this by this

new criteria he could do that and get

away with it right well I think there

are some legal questions as per what a

president is allowed to get away with

and not be but I'm pretty murder is not

one of them like outright

Mur he would like it to be he would like

anything that crosses the line to fall

under total immunity the man has open

agulation for XI Jin for Kim Jong-un he

he's a wannabe dictator and I don't you

know I've been at Fox News my entire

media career I do not fancy myself an

MSNBC type person who wants to lose

their mind about those things but that

is very serious to have someone who was

the leader of the Free World and is

running to be it again to believe that

these people who are athma to democracy

are doing it right what do she feel and

also to though we're acting like you

know it's not just rhetoric yes he said

he want to be a dictator for a day yes

he said you know he should be immune

from killing you know immune from

killing his political Rivals but he also

attempted a CO with his country guys

right like why are we acting like that

did not happen why we keep acting like

January since did not happen I mean it

didn't happen I mean what that a bunch

of people showed up with no plans no

weapons I mean I'm not defending the

people that actually broke windows or

anything else but there was no coup

there was no that was attemped coup this

country I got eyes and ears I'm not a

political expert was plan was there a

plan did anyone have a piece of paper

that said croud boys had a plan and they

were invited into the White House there

were people with zip ties that's not a

casual thing that you walk around with

I'm not they went after the valid Bo

they were talking about hanging there

were a thousand there were only a 100

bad ones let's say that doesn't mean

that it wasn't an attempted CP f by the

president of the United States of

America I mean does anyone honestly

think that Donald Trump thought that the

next day he would be president you know

post transition B potential trans B does

which is why he finally had to go there

are people I mean what was so powerful

about the January 6 committee and what

they were able to put together is the

fact that they used almost exclusively

Republican testimony people who had

worked for him I mean look at the text

messages from his own son to Mark

Meadows or what aanka

had to be honest about when she

testified or Jared Kushner or Cassidy

Hutchinson who they're going after now I

mean he made a mockery of our system and

frankly me it speaks to the strength of

our institutions and the backbone of

Mike Pence for that eight hours that he

was able to I thought it was a pretty I

got to say it was a pretty terrifying

spect I'm sure watching it abroad you

thought what the hell is going on I

remember emailing one of his team and

saying what you've got to get him out

there and call this thing off and he

didn't for a long period of time while

this Mayhem was erupting you can dress

it anywh you like you can spin it

anywhere you like to thousands of people

whipped up into a mindset of we have to

stop this Democratic action happening

stormed into the epicenter of American

politics and they tried to take control

and in their eyes stop democracy

happening now the LI the liberal

response by the way which is to Classic

liberal response which is completely

halfast which to say right let's take

him off the ballot now in loads of

different states is obviously

stupid you don't try and stop a guy you

think has tried to thwart democracy by

thwarting democracy can I tell say two

things one Charlamagne brought up a

point that I wanted to add on to that's

really important about the vien Vigor

right so Donald Trump I don't think that

he's going to trip and fall and die

tomorrow but when people do see him he's

talking absolute rubbish he's he's done

that for 50 years

but people I I agree I and I didn't even

like his shows when it was on regular TV

but my

point come on the 2008 Celebrity

Apprentice was the stuff of

Masterpiece but the kind of

communication that he's putting out

there he's even in the last 48 hours we

went from II I was there I was on air

and I said this is a big accomplishment

for him he's being consilio how long

will it last then we got to immigrants

are poisoning the blood of America then

defaming a woman who he's been charged

they found him guilty of sexually

assaulting her he continues with that

he's talking about how magnets work in

water you know using ID to buy a loaf of

bread it's not like people who are at

home are saying this guy's got it

together and this guy doesn't you know

what is you know what we're gonna come

back I'm going to talk after the break

to De Phillips and keep you guys here to

react to that but also want to talk

about what Jamie Diamond said which I

thought was really interesting when he

said that if you call everyone who a

Maga supporter a supporter of trump if

you call them a bunch of crazies then

you are completely missing the point why

most of them actually want to vote for

Trump which is economy foreign policy uh

the Border all these things which he was

strong on last time he said that's why

they want him back because they feel

they've been let down on that by Biden

we'll talk about that after the break uh

stay with me un sensored next more from

my New York super B I'll be joined by

the Democratic presidential candidate

Minnesota Congressman Dean Phillips and

a Democrat since 1958 and I beat an

incumbent by who had won by 14 points I

beat him by 12 and I got to the US

Congress in 2019 and found an

unmitigated dysfunctional disaster that

is easily fixed with good leadership

peers and you ask why I'm running for

president well the overwhelming

exhausted majority of Americans center

right center left Americans Common Sense

people are tired of this they want to

turn the page from both Trump and Biden

and I tell you I tried to get the

president to pass the torch I called

other candidates who are better known

than me none of them would do it so I

thought it was time for courage my

father gave his life to this country and

I entered the race because if not now

when and if not me who and I got to tell

you pierce it is a joyful journey and

Americans are not as divided as anger

tainment would have us believe and I'm

going to make change in a common sense

decent way that engages Democrats and

Republicans and moves Beyond dangerous

nonsense well everything you say makes

perfect sense except this Joe Biden if

he doesn't Stand Down will be the

nominee now twice in post second world

war history there has been an incumbent

Democrat president who has done that you

know Lyndon Johnson did it and there was

another president who did it um they

stood down and didn't go forward but if

Joe Biden doesn't do that voluntarily

you have no way

in well appears I don't I don't I don't

buy into that I'll tell you I've spent

my life my professional life disrupting

uh businesses and categories trying to

disrupt the US Congress that is in

desperate need of it and that's why I'm

doing this again as long as American

voters actually get out and vote in the

primary anything is possible Joe Biden's

not a bad man he's a good man but he's

81 years old he's facing the lowest

approval numbers in American

presidential history every poll he's

losing including the Battleground States

and even you know Charlemagne the God

who was just on with you moments ago and

I was on The Breakfast Club just about a

week ago uh he's speaking the truth too

saying the quiet part out loud he's not

electable so Democrats will have a

choice Piers sometime soon to either go

and coronate a candidate who is going to

lose or go with hope and optimism and a

brighter future with a candidate me

who's 54 years old and able willing

competent and ready to combine the very

best of center right center left

thinking in America and stop the

nonsense and win that's the choice of

American voters and we got to practice

democracy not just talk about it all

right look you haven't got much time

give me three things you would do if you

were president tomorrow top priorities

oh let me start with let me let me talk

about executive leadership I will have a

bipartisan cabinet of the best and

brightest Americans Democrats and

Republicans I will have a youth cabinet

I will employ zerob based budgeting I

will actually manage our federal

government in a fiscally responsible

manner uh I will address the southern

border which is an unmitigated

mess and disaster inhumane horrible for

our economy and our International

reputation and we have must reform our

Asylum policies and then I will do what

is most important for Americans right

now costs and Chaos are out of control

life is unaffordable 60% of Americans

living paycheck to paycheck 40% cannot

afford a $400 emergency we've got to

attack affordability we've got to end

the chaos not just in the United States

but all around the world end the wars

invest in peace and bring the country

together and do our best to bring this

world together before it's too late

piers and that's going to take all of us

and by the way as some have noted Jamie

Diamond about Biden condemning all Trump

supporters I welcome and invite Trump

supporters I love everybody as long as

you are people of principal and decency

and want to work together peers we got

to change this nonsense the two parties

are the problem and I'm running for

change and I don't mind that disruption

because I think most people want it well

it's good of you to uh join me Mr

Phillips I would personally say you

probably have two hopes of succeeding no

hope and Bob Hope but I do admire the

aspiration and I actually like the cut

of your jib as well so you never know in

politics right hey you never know you

got to give it a shot and by the way

mark my words watch here in New

Hampshire on January 23rd just four days

from now you might be

surprised I I look forward to it I would

love to be surprised Dean Phillips thank

you very much and for joining me

Charlamagne you got what a Optimist you

are you know what I am I'm I'm an

optimist tinge with being a realist

right you got to be real about this I

don't think Joe Biden has shown any

indication of wanting to stand down at

all unless he voluntarily does that is

persuaded to he is going to be the

nominee right and for someone like you

um you've become with your show various

shows but The Breakfast Club in

particular has this extraordinary number

of young black people who tune in

religiously to listen to it to watch it

and to think what do they want what do

they want from their president I they

got two elderly white guys right running

for president this is not an Obama 20089

scenario what do they want to happen

here well when you talk about it in

those terms number one they want both of

them to step out the way they want the

GOP to move away from Trump they want

you know Democrats to move away from bid

but I don't care who you talk to most

folks you speak to want upward Mobility

like it's all about money like that's

the conversation that they should be

having when they're having conversations

about you know creating jobs when

they're having conversations about the

economy being better that's great but is

it trickling down to the least of us you

know is it trickling down to the hood is

it trickling down to the rural areas

rural areas like where I'm from in Mons

Corner South Carolina if those people

aren't feeling the relief then you know

they feel like you know what you're

doing isn't isn't necessarily what does

you feel about Jamie Diamond who says

that you know if you if you just

ridicule and mock the magga crowd the

the really hardcore Trump supporters

it's wrong that you should respect all

Americans right they're entitled to

their opinion entitled to vote for who

they want to vote for I mean I thought

he had a point he also a point that if

you just over demonize Trump I think I

said on on your show I met Chris Rock

after the 2016 election the next day and

he said is someone's murdered eight

people don't go around saying he's

murdered nine about Trump in other words

you just exaggerate how bad he is it

people are going to find out see that

was 2016 I think in 2024 like we kind of

see what a trump presidency is is like

and how bad it could potentially be what

are you most worried about with him uh

I'm worried about you know uh the threat

to democracy seriously because when you

hear guys say hey we should get rid of

the constitution in order to overturn

the results of election like when you

hear a guy say you hear his lawyers in

court say well he never agreed to uh

support the Constitution it's like whoa

I don't care if you're Democrat

Republican black white gay straight if

you're an American citizen you cannot

have a leader of the Free World who does

not respect the Constitution Dave you

can't have someone who doesn't respect

the Constitution country well first off

the beauty of America and our system and

the Constitution and the rest of our

founding documents is that they work and

we've separated enough so that guys like

Donald Trump potentially if he wanted to

be dictator it's not that you just flip

a switch and suddenly you're dictator

not using the 14 well hold on a second I

would also say that if you look at the

actual reality of Trump's presidency

preco the economy was booming we had the

Abraham Accords lowest all-time black

unemployment lowest alltime Latino

unemployment and you may remember at the

State of the Union when he mentioned

that and AOC and the rest of the

Congressional Black poet sat there like

this I thought they would have been for

low black employment so Trump has done a

lot of things right and I'm saying this

as somebody that wasn't even supporting

him three days ago I mean I'm a disantis

guy I moved to Florida because J diamond

to be look to be clear he's not a big

Trump supporter he's locked he's locked

horns with Trump a few times he's

donated to the Democrats right it's not

and Trump has rubbished him in public

about doing business in China so it's

not like he's a dieh hard Trumper

himself he just made the point which I

think is right which is if you just

abuse everyone that votes for him you

are basically committ an act of self

harm what I would recommend anyone do as

this election keeps going is as the

rallies start again and I did not vote

for Trump in 2016 I did vote for him the

first time but one of the uh the second

time and one of the reasons that I ended

up doing it was one day in La I happened

to drive by a rally and I was like you

know what let me just go in there and

see what's going on and there were black

people and there were Latinos and gays

for Trump and it was a joyfest it was a

party American flags everywhere it

wasn't some coalesced idea of let's take

out democracy or out the Marxist or

anything else it was basically kind of

like an Fu to the system and and then

just this mix of politics I mean that's

the Jessica were you at this party he's

talking

about I wasn't invited there were gays

blacks Latinos but no liberals what did

you think what did you think were an

awful lot of liberal there were four

Bernie Sanders voters who probably

didn't turn up what did you think of

Jamie Diamond's comment because they

were I think Jamie Diamond runs a huge

international business and you can see a

a Line in the Sand with how people who

don't want to lose customers talk about

all of this and they have to do it that

way and that's correct but as someone

who spends my time in conservative media

with people who vehemently disagree with

me I'm I've had it up to here if I could

clutch my pearls any harder you know

whatever it is they try to say that

liberals talk the same way about

conservatives that conservatives talk

about liberals if Donald Trump wins the

presidency again you will have a

president who calls more than half the

country 81 million voted for Joe Biden

74 million for Trump calls us thugs

pedophiles Communists marxists

anti-americans traitors I I'm not being

welcomed into any sort of I have a

question I have a question for you which

I asked Charlamagne yesterday how many

uh

immigrants did Barack Obama Deport in

eight years he's the deporter and- chief

and I've

said milon 2 million he already knows

cuz I told him he got

yesterday I thought it was only two over

3 million it it was the greatest number

Pro rout of any president in history he

did not hurt him with latino voters I

say it all the time on the five Biden

can get tougher about this Henry qu he's

got it right how he's talking about it

the Border dams the mark Kelly of the

world that's all fine and good but to

your point about what this world looked

like or this country before Co Trump

setting all these records guess what

Biden's done better than his records so

black unemployment is lower than it was

under Trump Latino unemployment lower

than under let's talk about oil I can't

even tell you how many times I've been

told you know drill baby drill well Joe

bid's doing it 13.3 million barrels it's

the highest amount of oil produced by

any country in history good sales pitch

but here's the critical question for all

of you and it's a one word one word

answer if it's Biden Trump in November

who no who wins I I do believe Biden

wins

Trump casting votes by the way that's

why that's what's so scary about it like

you have to think by the way you don't

have to want this to happen but you're

talking about I know but you're talking

about a guy who has 91 criminal charges

a guy who says he wants to be a dictator

for a day a guy who says we should rip

up the Constitution do know what day is

and that's what I'm saying so if if

Biden has done all of these great things

and he's up against that and we're still

not sure name is he winnable I don't I

really don't know you got to you got to

give me a name who's going to win Biden

V Trump it's not Dean Phillips it's not

gonna be Dean Phillips I really truly

don't know if I had to say right now I

would say Donald Trump wow there we go

the casting vote Charlamagne the god the

man with his finger on the pulse of

America Trump maybe but I I don't know I

really long feel so scary about it there

a long there's a long time ago brilliant

to have you all thank you very

much
