Jeff Poor Show - Wednesday 8-28-24
[MUSIC PLAYING] From Bucks Pocket to the shores of Orange Beach, at all points in between, an insider's perspective on Alabama politics. It's the Jeff Poor Show. I don't think Hank done it this way. [MUSIC PLAYING] Good morning. Welcome to the Jeff Poor Show. And if I'm talking about '06, '05. Hey, should be with us on this Wednesday morning. 2, 5, 1, 3, 4, 3, 0, 1, 0, 6 is the text line. You want to be in touch with the program. What you got to do, you text me. And we'll do our best to respond to whatever it is that you are-- whatever it is that's on your mind. Coming up on the program today, here in about 30 minutes, we'll kick it off with my colleague at Breitbart News, Bradley J, which I'll talk to him for time to time. I'm-- you know, obviously, everything kind of hinges on the presidential top of the ticket election. But I'm really interested in how these-- somebody's down ballot races in these other states. I think Senate's going Republican. I don't know about the House. There's not so much that the-- it's not the election wins or change or anything like that. I mean, like, you've got kind of-- well, Mike Johnson is a speaker. Is he going to be able to really lead an election? You know, we'll pick off a seat or two to defend. For example, AL2, you know, keeping Democrats from winning that. So we'll talk to Bradley about that in about 30 minutes. Also in the program, Joy Clark would do that every Wednesday. Who was-- I don't want to say he was on the RFK junior bandwagon, but he at least was sort of contemplating the possibilities there. We'll find out what he thinks of the way that's unfolded. And then finally, as I said earlier, Andrew Sorrell, our state auditor, will be with us. We'll talk to him about a few things. Presidential politics, particularly, but a few things going on in that auditor's office and around Montgomery. Once again, 2513430106 hit us up on the text line. So let's talk it to every Wednesday at 7.30 AM. I do a radio segment with Dale Jackson. We go about 25 minutes or so. And he is-- if you've heard him on this show, I mean, he is just so overwhelmed by the mainstream media coverage of Donald Trump. He doesn't think that Donald Trump is able to overcome that. He doesn't think that the negative coverage-- it's just swinging too many voters the other way. And well, that's true. It's just like what I feel like I need to remind him and others that are really worried about the negative sort of PR campaign. The media may dissuade some people for voting for Donald Trump. I mean, there's certainly an impact. In the pile of a half a billion dollars in campaign cash, you got Deep State B team or Jack Smith out there getting other indictments. And such it is the problem becomes-- you're going to keep people from voting for Donald Trump. What are you doing really to promote his opponent? We have to battle is, OK, we want to get people not to vote for Trump. But I am-- and I know that the coverage has been glowing in, but I don't see it going the other direction. It is unlike Bill Clinton in Barack Obama. And even Joe Biden to some degree. It doesn't seem as rosy for Kamala Harris the way she's being portrayed and presented. I mean, yeah, certainly not bad. But there's a hesitancy. You pick it up for some of these Jake Tapper types to really dive in off the deep end for Kamala Harris. You saw it for Hillary Clinton even. Well, it feels a little-- does feel a little hilarious. But that's what I'm telling you guys, like put Trump aside. It's hard to do. Like he is, you know, bright lights in big city and gold and you know, just put him aside. And just look very mindfully focused at Kamala Harris' campaign and what she's doing, her day-to-day operation. The people she has out there speaking on her behalf. Don't think about Trump. It's hard, but don't. Does that look like a winning presidential campaign to you? Does it look like what she is doing is like-- and this is the high office of the land, like avoiding the media for two months, finally sitting down for an interview, having to have Tim Walz tag a log. The rallies get scant coverage. I mean, Megan, the stallion got more coverage than she did. This is what I would say to you. If you're really worried about this, and look, it's fine, it's a presidential election. But you just got to look at like-- it's kind of like football. And there's all this noise and all this hype. But the team, the other side's putting on the field. What's there? The policies-- it does feel like Paris is sort of abandoning the left with the wall and some of these environmental policies that she had previously staked her claim out on. Give that some thought as well. When it looks like she's trying to moderate-- and it's not really good-- it's not a really good move to the middle at all. The problem with Democrat candidates is they always try to portray themselves as the moderate, that they move the goalpost to try to make us think that all of these liberal policies really are the center. And they do this throughout their primaries. They do this throughout their-- in this case, the vice presidency and the Biden administration. And now, here you are, and it's a presidential election, an unlikely candidate here, where the incumbent just steps aside. And you can't moderate Paris, because it's generally defined to Harris. All there is out there to go on is what she ran on four years ago, five years ago. And like I said, keep Trump on the sidelines here. It's hard. I know James and his fingers are just about to explode here about the big bad orange man. But just keep this on-- forget about Trump for a moment and just stay focused on Harris. Well, what makes you think that she's some kind of a juggernaut that's capable of winning presidential election? Why would you bet on that? It's as if it's like the newly Patriots versus the Vanderbilt corridors or something. And everybody hates the Patriots, and the press coverage is just horrible, and Belichick's still there. Let's pretend he's getting lap dances at massage parlors or whatever it was, and the media is just hammering. And then we're like, here you got Vanderbilt, and they're sweet and cuddly, and they're not really doing much. But I mean, you get a bet on that? Is that what you think is the winning strategy? Oh, they're going to bring Kentucky along with them to play the Patriots. So they'll take the best of Kentucky, and they'll take the best of Vanderbilt, and they'll team up together. And that's what'll do it, right? I know. That's a pretty terrible analogy. But whatever, you got to look at just the fundamentals of the Harris campaign and scratch your head. And look at every past presidential campaign that is ran, Trump in even the 2020 Biden 2020 Hillary, a Trump in 16, Obama Romney 12, even became as terrible as that was in '08, and Obama in '08. Look at Harris. Now, and the other thing about Harris, I mean, she's new, and maybe we feel like it's a lot earlier in the cycle because she's so new to everything, but the clock is taking, November will be here. It's almost September. And they really have not defined her. And in fact, they're giving her a pass, giving her time to define herself. So that's sort of the take here, where it's also focused on Trump, and we're not really looking at how bad this-- I think this is a terribly ran campaign. I think the Harris people are getting high on their own supply. What I mean by that? I think they are getting high on their media, all that they get in media for Trump. They're relying on social media just as they did with her early on. She's clearly slow catching up. There's no reason it should have taken this long for her to catch up. There's something going on there fundamentally that's not right. She could not have won a Democratic presidential primary. They had to install Harris in nominee. She can't win with Democrats. She can't win a primary. They don't have the confidence and faith that her to win that primary, because I don't think she could have. What's different about a presidential election? Well, the electorate's different, Jeff. You don't have as many liberal activists voters, sure. But some of that is ideological, but a lot of it is just ability. She's not a retail politician. What do you-- I mean, Obama's out there, and he's like singing out green or whatever. What does she do? She's going on to breakfast club and talking about how she used to smoke weed. I don't know. So just keep that in mind. And I expect it from the mainstream media, but from the right kind of-- not necessarily the Fox News or anything like that, but some of these quote, unquote republicans just acknowledge that even the candidate, take the candidate out of it, just look at the campaign itself. It's a bad campaign. I mean, times when we see bad campaigns throughout our life, it's just not really-- they never get going. And why is it so slow coming out of the gate? Like I said, and Jean, you can text me all you want. You've got to put Donald Trump on the side. You've got to defend your candidate. You can't, because she's not doing anything, but Donald Trump, Donald Trump. I mean, that's the problem, Jean. Your candidate is just a puff of air with platitudes surrounding her. It's like Kamala Harris is at a candidate. She's an abstract idea of the fabric of this country, this woven to show the multiculturalism. I mean, that's just-- that's meaningless. You're voting on an idea. Maybe it's a vote against Trump, but it doesn't always work. You've got to win the presidency of the United States. And this isn't like they've got a trick play to the, like, Gus Malzahn, hurry up no huddle thing here. Like, you've got to have a real team with the real players. I don't think she's there yet. We'll be right back. This is the Jeff Moore Show at Epip Talk, 106.5. [MUSIC PLAYING] [MUSIC PLAYING] [MUSIC PLAYING] Welcome back to the Jeff Moore Show at Epip Talk, 106.5. Trying to figure out to navigate the college football pickle pool. What usually happens with me is, like, I'll play for, like, the first few weeks, and then I'll forget to do my entry, and then it just all goes terribly from that point forward. But anyway, we'll give it a shot again this year. And when I do remember, it's never really that great. Sometimes my sports analogies, as you heard in the last segment, just to be kind of talking off the cuff there. So whatever, we'll give it a shot. I encourage you, you out there, to participate at Epip Talk, 106.5.com. Text line, you earned 120 points. I just, like, somebody assigned up the text line for, like, the SEFCO rewards. Very, very appreciative of that, whoever you are. Serious question, why could the White House not be prosecuted for election interference by suppressing the laptop story? Everyone knows they pressured Facebook to kill the story. There has to be proof of that somewhere. Like, Supreme Court actually looked at this to see it, that, you know, does this constitute a First Amendment violation? And as it turns out, you know, it has to be a little more explicit. The White House has to say, hey, if you are the DOJ or whoever the governing authority is, we'd have to say, if you publish a story about the laptop, or if you allow posts on your social media platform about the laptop, we will prosecute you. I mean, it has to be that. I can't just be, hey, I'm being your best interest not to do this. I don't know. I mean, maybe there could be some kind of civil action there, but as far as a prosecution goes, you've got to have a lot more there to do with constitute a First Amendment violation. Oh, when you put President Trump aside to look at Kamala, she said nothing. Yeah, but that's the whole point. Like, guys, like, this is the powerhouse candidate. I don't know. Like, if you're a Democrat out there, are you so like, well, at least it's not Trump, you know, that you think that this is your dream match up? Because the Trump's so bad. Why could-- why could Biden not have beat him? And that's the question. Like, give this some thought for a moment here. Biden versus Trump and Democrats like panicking because they didn't think Biden could beat Trump. But if Trump is so bad, if Trump is the evil and whoever they put up against him is far superior. Well, why didn't they just leave Biden there? I mean, Trump's got his negatives. People are going to go out and vote against him. But I think it's more likely than not that they just don't vote for him at all and don't vote for anybody. Because she is not really a good candidate. This is like the emperor has zero clothes on and no one's acknowledging this. She's a bad candidate, guys. She is a good candidate on paper because she meets all these like Democrat ideals. But just just as far as like going out and earning people's votes, she is-- what has she done? What has she done to say, "Hey, I want you to vote for me." And person X says, "Yes, thank you for, for, you know..." She's not. I mean, it's all like anti-Trump campaign. I don't think that works. A rock and roll doctor says she's a lust, Jeff. A drunk. How could she handle worldly political issues effectively? Do we know that she's a drunk? Gene, MAGA has gone so far to deep in that Kamala sounds like a moderate Nixon Republican. I don't think so, Gene. I don't think she sounds like anything. Another problem for them is they're trying to brand her as some kind of moderate. In the media, her campaign, let's say, is trying to, you know, "Well, she's changed the position X, Y, Z." She's not really doing this herself, though. That's going to be the struggle. They got a lot of problems ahead of them before she could be sworn in as president and they got to figure them out. I'm just telling you. We're back. This is the Jet Force show, and I've been talking 106.5. ♪ I keep my eyes wide open ♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ Welcome back to the Jet Force show at Fintalk 106.5. Thanks for sticking around on this Wednesday morning. The week's flying by, and ladies and gentlemen, a text line, once again, 2513430106. You want to be in touch with me, your show host. All you've got to do is text, and we will continue our discussion. I'm just sitting here today. It is what? August 28, 2024, and if you put Trump aside, the Harris campaign is what it takes to become the next commander in chief. Think about that. I mean, just don't look at Trump. I know it's hard. Just look at the Harris campaign and everything you're doing. You're telling me that is a winning campaign. I'm not convinced, but I'm happy to be -- I'm happy to you for you to try to convince me. Otherwise, those of you out there. But joining us now, a guy who doesn't really need to do much convincing, he has my colleague at Breitbart News, covers Washington, D.C., and right now is in the midst of this kind of tiresome election cycle. Bradley J is on the line with us. Bradley, good morning, how are you? Good morning, Jeff. Exciting to be with you. Hey, thanks for coming on. Well, how are you weathering the storm? I mean, I assume you're kind of bouncing around, but up in Washington, D.C., and all these elections cycle -- any election cycle with Donald J. Trump can be very exhausting. But this one to me, the emotional roller coaster, if you will, you're only at your seat constantly, and I feel like -- I don't know how much more we got in the tank into November 5th. It's been a year of October surprises from June 27th at debate when Biden just threw the race and the total chaos and him, the palace coup that ejected him and did his re-election bid to Kamala's coronation and everything that's going on with that. It's been more drama than one would have thought possible. We thought that 2016 was the peak of election chaos, but we -- 2024 told 2016 to hold my beer. And here we are, but we're 69 days out, and that timeline hasn't altered. Well, I mean, I don't know what else to expect. I mean, maybe there's some kind of conflict abroad or something happens with Biden. I don't know, but we just keep plotting along here. And how much more is this public going to put up? I mean, how much more can they get more engaged? Or are they engaged at all? It's like this. If everything is an October surprise and nothing is an October surprise. I think you're right. And with all the polling and prognosticating, there's just been so much back and forth that you can look at trends as perhaps the best gaze of what's going to happen. But generally, you would like for things to be settled, somewhat settled, before trying to determine how things are going to go. And at this point, again, 69 days out, things still aren't settled. We're finally past the convention. Kamala didn't get the bump that she wanted. You go hold that came out of belief this morning, so that she'd actually lost the point in the convention. That's the kind of trend that suggests what a lot of conventional wisdom among Republicans and Democrats in Washington is that we're going to have another Trump White House. But I don't think you can take anything for granted now, in spite of all the momentum that Trump seems to be having right now. And certainly, if you look at what effect that's going to have, the top of the ticket's going to have on these down ballot races, even with all the uncertainty, I still think Republicans should be feeling pretty good right now. Yeah, I think you should be okay. I mean, like I'm on my radio calling Dale Jackson, who's on at Huntsville. I mean, he's kind of like in a panic hysteria because he just thinks the asymmetrical media coverage is just too much. And everything Trump does is just getting picked apart by the media. And he's second guessing all that. But I don't know how many Dale Jackson's there are that are out there that are really, that's really concerned. But I don't think that this is just kind of the status quo. It's always been that way going back to 2015. And he lost one and he's won one. There's, you know, this is just going to have to be considered a constant in this presidential election. Yeah, and in 2016 and 2020, the media came after Trump no hold board. That didn't change. Obviously, there was a lot going on in 2020 that was not going on in 2016. And a lot of that that hurt Trump in 2020, I think where Republicans are much better prepared for this year. Obviously, you don't have COVID. Republicans have done so much in registering voters in states like Pennsylvania and pushing early voting, which was something that even in the waning days of the campaign in 2020, a lot of Republicans in the Trump, a lot of Trump campaign staff acknowledged. Look, this is going to come back to Biden. It seems like when you get down to it, voters understand the media's against Trump. They understand that the media's going to come after Trump. And I think that you're right when you say, you know, everything's an October surprise. Nothing's an October surprise. I believe that it's a little bit of the same in the media. Folks just, the public expects the media to come after Trump, and they tune a lot of it out. They've done everything they can at him. I mean, my gosh, they tried to disqualify him from ballots in the state using 14th Amendment. You've got Jack Smith in D.C. in Florida, the Florida case, Jack Smith trying to get back. But it's essentially shut down. He hasn't given up in D.C. Look at what happened to public polling of Trump after the Manhattan case when he convicted felon, convicted felon. Democrat said after that, and a lot of polling showed that Trump's popularity even went up after that. And his fundraising went through the roof after that. What else are they going to do? I mean, my gosh, they even took out the candidate they had against him and replaced him in an effort to try to slow down Trump. And honestly, that might be the best measure of Trump and the Republican ticket streak going into November in the fact that they had to replace their candidate. So, yeah, I mean, Republicans should be feeling pretty good right now. Yeah, well, I mean, let's like unwrap this, though. You mentioned, like, here it is. It is, it is late August, almost September. He has been impeached twice. He's faced probably the most brutal media onslaught in the history of where presidential campaigns, three of them, keep in mind. Like I said, convicted in New York state. He is indicted in a bunch of other places, and they can't put him away. They cannot end the Donald Trump phenomenon, no matter what they do. Why should we think that there's anything left here for them to do? You know, it's it's it's remarkable because on paper, if you were from outer space, Bradley, and you're an alien. And somebody presented you with two sheets of paper. Well, here's what Donald Trump has faced since 2015. And here's Kamala Harris. You would have to say, well, I mean, based on that Kamala Harris ought to be up 10, 15 points. But they just no matter what they do, they can't put him away. Why should we think here in the next three months that's going to change? You know, Jeff, Trump's got a lot of big Jim both of them. And a big Jim used to, the reporters would come into his office. He welcomed them in. They threw out all these allegations, much of which he was guilty of, of a given job. His friends or corruption or this, that and other. And big Jim would look at me and say, you know what? I'm guilty of all of it. Now let's talk about how I'm going to help the good people of Alabama. And honestly, Trump got a lot of that too. And and I think that the people have become so accustomed to to all these accusations against Trump. They're known to it. They look around. They look at the economy. We just had the three year anniversary of the Afghanistan debacle. They look at our geopolitical standing and they say, you know what? It's a binary choice. We'll think, will I be better off under Donald Trump? With all of the supposed baggage that he has, will I be better off with Kamala Harris? I think that most voters are going to make that termination. Most independent, undecided voters. I think the choice is pretty clear. And I think that, you know, look, the Democrats are trying to make this about this election, about single cat ladies. And I just really don't think that that's the case. I think it's going to come down to non-college educated white males. Just like it did in 2016. And if you look at all these states that are in play, Trump seems to be running strongly in those states. And I think that that's what's going to put him over the top, and I think it's going to bring a lot of down ballot Republicans with him. Joined by Bradley J. Breitbart News here on the program. Bradley, what are the reasons I want to get you on? And aside from the Dobson Shomari figures race, I mean, some of these down ballot races, it looks to me like right off of that, that the Senate is, it's just such a favorable map for Republicans that they're probably going to wind up with the Senate. The House is murky at best. I don't know. I mean, Mike Johnson as a kind of a captain in a political sense. Steve Scalise, I guess still technically involved. But what do you think? I mean, the House itself and some of these House races, where does that wind up come January? The House, the direction the House goes in generally is very dependent on how things go in the top of the ticket. This is an unusual year in that Democrats have the White House. Republicans, of course, have the House and done anything with it, but that's another story. But I don't think you can escape the fact that House Republicans are getting just absolutely smoked in fundraising. Mike Johnson was anointed speaker, not because he was a fundraiser, so it's difficult to hold that against him. He hadn't developed this campaign fundraising machinery over years and years like other candidates. That was known when his colleagues voted for him. He was voted for him because he was going to be a conservative with the gavel, and he hasn't done that. So what good is he if he can't do that? Don't get too off track there with my disappointment in Mike Johnson. I don't think that he will be the speaker next year, regardless of what happens. But in talking with a bunch of folks up here, whether it's the high-level political folks who track this closely for a living or are involved in this for a living, the stint seems to be -- we feel very good about the presidency. We feel pretty good about the Senate, and we just don't really know about the House. You know, if money is the mother's milk of politics, well, at least on the national level, NRCC, a lot of these outside groups that are support Republicans, they're getting beat by the Democrats. That is not -- that obviously is not good. If you look at a strong candidate like Caroline, I think that she'll be fine. Certainly hopeful that she gets up there. If you saw her at the DNC, I think it was notable I was watching an ABC live stream, and reporter -- or the ABC anchor misidentified and thought he was calling already. The fact that this guy claims he's some, you know, DC hotshot up here, I don't think that's the case. I think he's overplayed that a bit. But more broadly, your right house is kind of an unknown at this point. Trump at the top of the ticket certainly would seem to help Republicans running in some of these blue-collar states, whether it's Pennsylvania or Michigan. But really, you're right. It's murky at this point now. Well, why do you down on this? I mean, let's play this game. For whatever reason, Republicans don't win or don't keep the house. And who knows? Obviously, there will have to be some kind of leadership shake-up I would think if you have a speaker, Jeffries or whatever, and, you know, nature of poor Slovakia. Like who is the heir apparent here? We've already been through all these other multiple votes about who should be speaker, and there's so much drama in the House Republican caucus. What -- does anybody really emerging as a potential leader there? There are a few names of possibilities. Let's look back at Kevin McCarthy. Kevin McCarthy had his moment in 2015. Republicans were in the majority. McCarthy was the next man up. He was after Boehner. He was more or less seen as a fae accompli that he would rise to the gavel. He didn't for a couple of different reasons. But really, it was thought that he was banished. That was his moment. He'd never get another one again. How did he get the gavel eventually? Seven years later, six or seven years later, he waited and he went the route of minority leader. Republicans lost the majority. Now, if you -- to be the minority leader, that's not voted on on the full four of the house. That's voted for inside the Republican caucus or the Democrat conference if they're in the minority. McCarthy had the majority of support inside the Republican conference, even if he would have never won on the four of the house. So he was able to rise to minority -- or rise. He was able to become the minority leader after Republicans eventually lost the majority a couple of years after he did this into the speakership. And over time, he became leader of the party. He became leader of the party. He became the majority. McCarthy had been a big part of that. It's minority leader. He, after a fight, gets the gavel. There's a lot of fault that if Republicans do lose the majority, that that would be Jim Jordan's chance. If you had a vote inside the Republican conference and Jim Jordan ran, he'd have a very good chance of doing that. And then maybe potentially one day that could -- he could rise to get the speakership if he -- if Republicans did regain the majority. That's -- I've really probably the only way that he could ever become speaker. But there are a couple other folks there. Richard Hudson, who's running the house fundraising arm. Tom Emmer has repaired things with Trump. And he would certainly be a strong candidate right now. And he might be the figure right now. Scalise probably had his moment. But, you know. Bradley, we've got to leave it there. We're out of time, but always insightful. Thanks for making time for us. Take a joy, Jim. I'll check you about Bradley, AJ, on Twitter, and Breitbart News.com. We'll be right back. This is FIT Talk, 106-5. All right. Let's take it on to have some muscle shows through your computer. Mmm, Merlin, how? Ooh, my God. Right up over Spanish, or into Mobile, my hometown. Mr. Team. Welcome back to the Jump Force Show at FIT Talk, 106-5. Make sure to stay up with us on this Wednesday morning. We'll still come on to program here in about 45 minutes. So, Joy Clark from Montgomery Radio, News Talk, 93-1s of news and views. Also, on the program, we'll hit up Andrew Sorrell, our state auditor, making his kind of random monthly appearance on the program as we head into, well, as we head into September. We'll find out. Really make a break time. I mean, it's kind of now, but really, everyone says that the rule of thumb, guys, when it comes to what's kind of going on and looking at pulling and, you know, those of you who live and die by the real clear politics averages or whatever, it's after Labor Day. Also, the conventions are wrapped up and we're sort of-- It'll be a better barometer. People are settled down. The enthusiasm from whatever event is weighing, and then we'll know where-- really where the public is. Text slide, if you want to get in, we'll get to your text on the other side 251340106. This is the Jeff Porschow at Fiptong. 106-5. Right here at the Flora Family. At the Flora Family. At the Flora Family. Up. From Bucks Pocket to the shores of Orange Beach. At all points in between. An insider's perspective on Alabama politics. It's the Jeff Porschow. I don't think Hank done it this way. No. Welcome back to the Jeff Porschow at Fiptong. 106-5. Number two begins now. 251343. 0106 text me. We got a bunch of texts to get to here. Kind of the theme of the morning here is-- and this is not Kamala Harris personally, although we can have that discussion. The campaign. Like, what's there? What's the overall-- Where is the hope and change or the typical, like, fuzzy, feel-good platitudes of the Harris Wall's effort? And what I'm telling you guys, this is like my premise. And look, we've had a million discussions about Donald Trump. And what Donald Trump should and shouldn't do. Donald Trump's put it-- make him separate. It's hard, but do so. Put him over here. Just look at the Harris campaign and the things that they're doing. What? In that campaign is the hallmark of a winning presidential campaign. What are they doing right at Harris HQ? What would you say? Oh, well, that was pretty smart. Like a Greer disagree. Trump putting the wreath at the Arlington Cemetery. It looks very presidential. What in the last month has Harris done that looked presidential? Where are they putting her? What-- and this is like you want to create this perception that Harris will walk in that she will walk in and be president and look presidential. And you can picture her at the resolute desk in the Oval Office addressing the country. Like they're not really creating that brand. I think this is a very-- I think there's a lot of problems here. And it's not that the ship is sinking. It's just the ship is just sitting there. It's not going anywhere. It's not heading toward a destination. It's just-- it's stuck into harbor. And the bed is that Trump will be so bad that people will just vote against him. And then this is where I think a lot of Democrats and a lot of left wingers get in their own way. That they refuse to acknowledge that there are people that actually like Trump out there. And then they may not have gone to Smith's College or wherever-- Solani. I don't know your mediocre private college and did not study the Greek classics, but their vote counts just as much as yours. And that's where they get in their own way to assume that other people have the same perception of Trump as you do. You got to put that aside. And it's just like what if you ran in another terrible sports analogy here? But what if that was your whole game? Like, like, Auburn kicks off Saturday, 6.30, I guess Alabama A&M. And let's just say that the entire strategy there is just to bet on your opponent being so bad and you were going to go undefeated and achieve a national championship. I mean, that seemed like just some problems there with that. So, like I said, just look at the Harris campaign. Before some of the people are panicking, he's down 1.7 points to the RCP average. That's not great, but the bigger picture here is what makes you think this Harris campaign strategy they are using. And the clock is ticking. This is what it may feel like that we're at the early stages here, that it's like May or June in this presidential campaign and we just wrapped up the nomination and now we're entering this new phase. But no, it is about to be September. And no one is like, say, well, they will what she loses, if she loses, if she loses, and it's November 6, you'll let Chuck tie, you'll have Joe Scarborough, you'll have all the usual suspects sitting around a table, Van Jones, whoever, well, she had done this differently. Why weren't you people saying this all along? Oh, we didn't want to criticize the emperor without clothes. We were trying to be team players. Watch, guys, I'm telling you, this campaign, it's stuck in the harbor. There's end fighting. We saw it with how they were going to do this interview and who they wanted to do it with. I guess it was, they wanted Gayle King, but then they didn't. There are structural problems with the Harris Walls campaign. It was hastily conceived. It got rid of a lot of the old Biden people, brought in new people, and they are trying, they are trying to, you know, get their ceilings under them and then just not catch it up. It is way too slow out of the shoot here. They need to be playing hurry up offense. And they're playing prevent defense. 2,5,1,3,4,3,0,1,0,6. Because someone explained why a small amount of American women are allowing this to happen, boys and girls sports, the first female president, not elected. I mean, that's like, what can they do? I think that you're right in some aspects that you want to hear a little more from the feminist. What ever happened to the national organization for women? Where are they? Where are they in regards to saying, "Hey, this is bad for FEMA." I mean, it's like they've been told to shut up or something. Wayne, good morning, Jeff. I hope everyone is paying close attention to the CNN interview for Kamal Harris, and it's going to be pre-recorded, which means it will then be added to take out all of the stupid stuff, you might say, or all the laughing, cackling, and incoherent statements. I'm sure they will polish her and try to make her look as good as possible. But how many people are going to be paying attention to the CNN? I mean, yeah, a lot of people will be. This is not the blockbuster interview they need. I feel like we sort of minimize the presidential race to be like, I could test it on the voice or something, or whatever, and we're going to call in and you'll cast your vote that way. It's so much bigger than that. Like, you can't just call in your vote. You actually have to motivate people to want to get up out of their weed smoke-filled home and turn off the judge shows or whatever it is the price is right. And figure out how to get gas money or whatever, go pick up some beer cans on the side of the road to get to the polling precinct, stand in line in some cases and vote for you. Where's the motivation? I'm not saying it goes, there's no motivation for those people to go vote for Trump, obviously. But the motivation has to be what you need to go vote for Harris. And it doesn't, there's just no enthusiasm. Where's the enthusiasm? We've seen this over and over again. There's enthusiasm for Trump. There has been in the last two presidential cycles. We've seen the enthusiasm. You have to acknowledge there's enthusiasm for Trump. There was a little enthusiasm for Biden because it wasn't Trump, but he almost lost that race. Where is the enthusiasm for Kamala Harris right now? She's got a lot of things to working against her too, guys. Those last four years of the Biden presidency, she may try to distance herself. And you're like, well, the media is going to let her do that, but she's not going to, it's not going to be that clean. She still got that baggage and she's not going to be able to disassociate herself from it. She's got the baggage of the last four years. I mean, in the eyes of the public, we assume way too little about the public here. And so this is telling Dale this morning was, look, she may be up 1.5 or 7 or whatever in the RCP average. And they may have thrown in a Rasmussen poll that kind of shifted the average a little. But she can't just want to popular vote. She's got to want to popular vote by five points. Sam, I hope this helps Dan. Well, hopefully, Dan sees that. Toothless Bamber Kamala co-signed the EV bill now. She flip flops and says she doesn't support. Mr. Plot. Yo, Jeff, if we were in the sixth grade, we could do our Kamala needs her temp on jokes, but we're not. So we won't do that. Uh, king of all named textures. Uh, she sounds like the Joker. Why so serious to jokes on you and me? Uh, then he adds, uh, the simple fact that Harris is female young and a minority will bring peace for all. Peace and prosperity. Gene, uh, you're always complaining about censorship of the right. Let's bring back the fairness doctrine. Keep the ship anchored to avoid the storm fate by the right. Well, like the destination gene is the White House, and you're afraid to come out of the port because of the storm. You've got to, here's what you have to do. The right, the right approach isn't just to stay in the port. It is to go out, steer around the storm and head to your destination to White House. You can't expect the, uh, just the anti-Trump wins to blow you there. That's, that's, that's the problem with this Harris campaign. There's, there's nothing there, Gene. Gene, if I said you have to do nothing but give me reasons why Harris is a good candidate. You couldn't do it. You're just, you're just giving me the rights doing this, Trump is bad. Why in this campaign, no one, no one is talking about that. Why, why about the Harris Walls campaign is like, yes, that is a smart winning campaign. Oh, they text her what flavor ice cream questions need to come to an end, but they won't. Finally Dave, I don't know Jeff. Uh, I still think sports, especially college football, probably runs a 10 to 1 importance factor to people in Alabama versus politics. What do you think? Uh, I don't know. I, I used to think that. I mean, you can, and that's, this is fair. This time of year. I mean, I always wanted to be a, I got into this racket initially because I wanted to be a sports writer. But when you just look at traffic and you look at like ratings and I, even in Alabama, Dave, I don't, I don't know. I don't think that's necessarily true. Maybe at some point in starting a season. The other problem with Alabama is, I mean, it's sort of like the same problem the Braves had in the 90s. They were just winning so much and then people just kind of took it for granted. Alabama's winning so much was Saban. Are they, are they taking it for granted? I mean, people love to complain about stuff and it was weird, right? At the end of Saban's era at Alabama, you listen to Finemom. How many people were calling in or how many people were like these talking heads were talking about the fall of Saban and complaining about him? Wait till there's some lean times and then I think that interest maybe gets back into gear and then we could, I got a library on that on the other side. On the other side. We'll be right back. This is the Jeff Moore Show, and if we'll talk, 106-5. ♪ Or I may simply be a single drop of rain ♪ ♪ But I will ♪ ♪ Once was the thought inside my head ♪ ♪ Or I'd reach 30, I'd be dead ♪ ♪ But somehow on and on I could ♪ Welcome back to the Jeff Moore Show. If I'm talking 106-5, they should be in with us on this Wednesday morning. Next segment, we'll talk to Joey Clark of News Talk 93-1 and Montgomery also still to come and your surreal or state auditor. So please make sure you stay tuned for that. Back to what I was trying to explain. Those of you around that long time Alabama fans, I mean, living through the 90s and, you know, even after the Stallings National Championship, and really kind of the, there was an interest there about Alabama football. Alabama football, then Alabama would pop up and start kind of peeking and getting, you know, maybe having some bad seasons and then get right there at the National Championship potentially, I mean, interest increased. And, you know, I think Democrats are sort of in this place right now. They need, they need the Crescendo. They need the Crescendo into a Forte, and I don't use their music analogy. And mixing in sports analogy there. But where is that? Uh, a name texture. Have they told Kamala who her cabinet is? Are they waiting to surprise her when she wins? Probably waiting to surprise her. I've seen some Axios reporting. The one named that sticks out in my mind is Doug Jones, Attorney General, and, and the thinking there is all these cabinet appointees have to be confirmed by the Senate. There's a thinking here. The Senate is going to go Republican just based on how the map is. And Doug Jones, having been a former member of the United States Senate, has a good chance of getting confirmed by his former colleagues. Mr. Plot, uh, if they ask him off what his favorite flavor ice cream is, and he doesn't say chocolate. Uh, they immediately, immediately they deserve to lose. Uh, Chris, Mr. Plot, is that necessary? Chris, uh, Coach Stallings won the National Championship with Coach Curry's recruits. I, I, if I recall, like, when Stallings came in, those first couple of years were not 90 and 91 weren't that good. I mean, they got blown out in like the, uh, whatever it is, if he has to bowl. I mean, there was an, and I remember the parody, uh, dig it up there or whatever to dig it up bones by Randy Travis. I, I, there was a, a time in the wilderness before maybe you're being facetious there, Chris. Uh, but there was a time in the wilderness before at 92 season. And it really did look like that was Alabama's year. The, the, I remember the toughest game of the schedule is like having to go to Starkfield to play Mississippi State or something. That was like Pat dies last year. And I mean, all the way to the end there. And then like you had this like just this, this flex at the right time in the sugar bowl against Miami. But after that, I mean, gosh, you remember, like everybody wanted Steve Spurrier offense and I, it just, being an older fan of kind of watching it. Of course, Terry Bound comes in and goes undefeated in 93. Um, but listening to the Alabama fans kind of complain about what was going on then. I mean, and then all of a sudden. Saban comes. And the enthusiasm is through the roof. I, I just think that things right now with politics, there hasn't been. A really good moment. I mean, I guess going through the wilderness moment, maybe you could say was after the Biden debate and it wasn't that great. And all of a sudden, here comes Kamal Harris and things kind of crescendo. But as far as the campaign itself, what is the campaign doing? You Democrats out there don't seem concerned at all. This is not a sport event, but a reality show different rules apply. I don't know. I think human psychology gene is a pretty, pretty much relevant to this discussion. I mean, that's sort of the public's reaction to things. And gene really like it or not. Maybe you're not in this category. A lot of people in this country look at politics like it's some kind of sporting event. It's R versus D. We'll be right back. This is the Jeff Moore show. What if I'm talking about O six five? [Music] [Music] Welcome back to the Jeff Pore show. What if I'm talking about O six five? I think you were sticking around on this Wednesday morning. One three four three zero one zero six. That is the text line. That is how you can touch with the program silicone on the program. Andrew Cyril at about an hour from now. He's our state auditor. We'll talk to him about a bunch of different things. So please stay tuned for that. But joining us now on the line, we do this every Wednesday. He hosts news and views on news talk in 93 one in Montgomery, Alabama. Joey Clark. Joey, good morning. How are you? Doing great feeling the joy this morning. I wish I could feel the joy. I asked anything to spread some joy my way and I'm I just don't see it. I mean, I think I see it when I lose it once I start reading. And then I try to get back and there's all there goes again. Maybe I'm like a few days early here. And I think that what based on what we're seeing, Joey, and this has been my like rant all morning. What makes anybody think that the Harris campaign to date is has the hallmarks of a winning campaign and then put Trump aside. It's hard for some people to to not want to talk about Trump and how orange he is or whatever, but just myopically. Be focused on Harris walls and tell me like, does this look like the winning presidential campaign, the highest office in the land leader in the free world that what I'm saying is not a seeking ship necessarily, but it seems like it's stuck in the harbor. Yeah, and it seems like it also is it wouldn't actually float if you actually push it out to see. And in so much of it is, you know, as I wrote about this weekend for as no close, but you know, folks need to remember after, you know, everybody knows that old story, the old folklore, but after the kid calls out them for being naked. And then the whole crowd goes, hey, like, well, kids, right. He isn't wearing any clothes. People forget what the emperor does. He keeps on marching like he does have clothes because he has to. I think that's what we're seeing now with the Harris campaign, but more less Harris than walls and more the machine that took out Biden and propped them up. I think it's pretty naked that the power plays they're doing right now. We'll see how this interview goes this week on CNN, I suppose with Dana Bash between what was walls in Harris. I guess doing it jointly. But I think you're right. If I just look at their campaign, it seems content-free. It seems astroturved. And most of the energy seems to be what you just said. We don't like Trump. And thank God we have that. Now if you look at the polling, you know, cook political reports is North Carolina is a play for Harris. I've just learned to put aside the polling for the next few weeks. We'll see as we get close here to October. Well, it's also this. It's like, let's pretend Harris, pretend you want Harris to win. And if you're the Democrats, like I would be. This was the strategy Trump was using. I would be like, what the hell is going on here? And this isn't going to win. This isn't how you do it. I don't think people like have come to that point. Yeah, maybe there's still kind of riding the high from the convention. But there's nothing there. And there could be something there. But why is it taking so long to get there? Oh, right. And they're twisting themselves in not in particular on big issues. I guess, you know, hurt. You know, once the bill will wall. It's like it's essentially flip-flopping of all the major issues. And then there's not much meat on the bones. In terms of what they actually are going to do. The entire vision is forward and abortion nationwide should be legal. I guess that works with a big part of the voting populace. But I think you need more than that. And who knows? I think there are six, seven, eight political lifetimes before November. So keep in mind how crazy the world is right now, especially on the foreign policy front. What could happen next that change things up? I think this economy is going to be papered over those. So I'm not expecting economic crash. But, you know, who knows what happens next? And having to react in real time is usually the death metal of these campaigns. Think of, say, John McCain, who seemed to have a pop after Sarah Palin in that convention. Then the bottom falls out from the economy and McCain's caught completely flat-footed. But I agree, I mean, the two, three months thing is an eternity. But if you look at the lifetime, the lifespan of a presidential election cycle, I mean, it really begins the day after inauguration. I mean, this is the eve. And this is September. I know I could happen. But some of that stuff is very marginal. And in a second to Bradley J about this earlier, like if everything's a October surprise and nothing's a October surprise at this point, it's getting kind of late to me. And the public is slow. Now you and I in the news cycle moves fast, but the public at large in a presidential election cycle with a tremendous way, way much bigger electorate is slow to catch up. They just aren't really moving at a speed I think they need to. It's taken way too long for her to catch up. I'll tell you what it is, Joey. Go back and look at the Harris campaign in 2019, 2020. And it was just sort of fueled by the glowing media coverage. And then when it came time to vote, I mean, she underperformed. She underperformed her own polls. I don't know. It just feels that way here. Well, it seems like they're trying to bank on early voting. So do this sort of content media created thing and get people, I think really voting starts in some states in September, which is not in. If I am trying to put myself into the Democratic Party shoes, they're squishy. I don't know what that is. Who wants to put together a presidential campaign in 100 days? So I think this explains some of the sloppiness that you're describing or just the lack of content. This is a big shift they did all of a sudden. And yeah, you can do their number one weapon is propaganda and PR campaigns. But actually putting together a coherent campaign in just three months is nearly impossible. The other challenge, if you believe the reporting, Joey is there's a lot of infighting inside of Harris world, just about, you know, where to do interviews, public appearances, campaign strategy, and you have her vice presidential staff that's just sort of in the way of the campaign. They got rid of a lot. I mean, whatever you want to say about Biden, he did have kind of a competent. He did have competent people running his campaign. They got rid of a lot of those people and they said they're starting from scratch. I just I don't know where this is headed. And if you just look at this and it's hard, if you just look at this as if you are wanting to anticipate with the Harris campaign, there's no reason to think that this is the it's time to hang the banner, you know, that this is this is such a juggernaut of a campaign. This is the Deaf star of Democrat party campaigns. It's just not that at all. It's very pathetic, actually, and I think you're right. And I think this interview is probably let's predict that this interview happening on CNN actually won't go well for that. I think it will be one of those times without all the glist and glam without all the control messaging actually having to sit there and talk. And I suspect, even though it's Dana Bash CNN, that CNN's gotten wise like they do the first debate between Biden and Trump, that they have to push back a little bit for credibility sake. So I think this week is kind of the beginning of the down slope for them after that high at the convention. Well, I mean, they just can't rely on the media to win this thing for them. They got, you know, and this is, you know, obviously Trump has to keep doing things and not screw it up and he has to maintain some level of discipline. But you know, you'll look at some of the things, I mean, what has been, what has been the, let's not talk about Harris's achievements, but what has been the achievement to this point with the Harris campaign, I mean, I guess kind of a successful convention. And they tricked a lot of people in the thinking Beyonce was going to perform at the DNC and got them to tune into her speech. But other than that, I mean, I don't see you just, it doesn't feel like a Clinton machine of the 90s or even an Obama, Axelrod sort of thing. And the 2000s, if I don't know what it is, I'm still waiting to see what it is. And, you know, the clock, I think the clock is ticking a lot faster than they're willing to acknowledge. I think it is slapdash, I think you're spot on there. And it is interesting, for instance, you know, the RSK endorsement of Trump, the Tulsi Gabbard endorsement of Trump, I don't think those two endorsements win the election outright. But I think they do move the needle a lot for the politically homeless independent voter. A lot more than say, Adam Kinzinger and Liz Cheney. So I think Trump, with getting RFK on board, with getting Gabbard on board, you're going to start to see the culture that's online that I always talk about in media. I think it's a unity party. I've been wanting a populist unity for a while. And like that, is that's going to win the day at the end of the day? The RFK junior and what went wrong there, why, here's what I think, like third party independent candidates, and you talk about the politically homeless, like, I think that's Trump's space. I mean, like the outsider, the person running against the institutions and the establishment, the reason that RFK or any other third party doesn't work in this under these political circumstances is that Donald Trump sort of dominates that space. Had it been like a, you know, your typical Mitt Romney or or whatever versus Biden, you know, name your establishment, Republican establishment, Democrat, RFK junior running is a third party. Maybe then you're cooking with gas. Yeah, I mean, I think Trump still had that populist outsider card. It always seemed to me that either RFK is going to play spoiler or they're going to create a unity party and I'm just happy they chose the latter. And I mean, we'll see if it actually all together, but I suspect it will. I just have a good feeling, especially with that coming right on the tail end of the Democrats convention. I thought there was a great pop for Trump and RFK and anybody who's a dissident or populist in the week last week. I thought it ended on a high and we'll see where it goes from there. I just find that there are more and more folks waking up to, yeah, the emperors, no clothes, they can still, you know, pretend like they're, they're not naked, but it's true. With the RFK stuff, it feels kind of like this. I mean, we are really, it's a, I know you, you believe this, deserved by a, it's a disservice to the public that we have a duopoly, but with an RFK kind of coming along to Trump, it does feel very parliamentary. And the potential that you have some sort of input from RFK about who's going to be in a Trump government. And you know, it's not your ideal circumstance if you're a disaffected third party politically homeless type, but it's got to be better, that's better than nothing. Maybe that gives you something, you may not even vote for Trump, but you're not going to go vote for Harris, but the potential is there that you could vote for them because you will at least have some buy in in a Trump administration now. Right. I think that's right. And I think Trump's been doing that more than just your, your liberals like RFK or Nicole Shanahan or Tulsi Gabbard, he's appealing to certain issues on that, whether it's anti-war or the health of the nation, but then you swing back over and the promises Trump against both at the Libertarian Convention. These are all small slivers of the population and the voting population, but you start adding them up, the big speech you gave at the Bitcoin conference from actually looking at issues that outsiders care about who don't normally agree on other things and sort of trying to work all that together. And I also suspect Trump doing this sort of podcast circuit where it's not the most substantive, hard-hitting content, but it's him being very humanized, you know, sitting down with somebody like a Theo Vaughn, all these young people, I think also moves the needle in its own way. And so you can find all that. I think it's a winning campaign. And then you add to what you're saying about the Harris Wall's campaign. I just, I'll be shocked if Harris Wall's wins in November, but of course, everybody's going to say the elections were a good thing. Well, and for them to be able to rig it, it has to go like it went in 2020. I mean, it's got to be close enough to where a few hundred or a few thousand votes would sway the election. I don't think that's the case at all, but I also think this, I mean, Joey, and we'll wrap it up on this. Look at 2020. It's the middle of a pandemic. They're just, they've thrown everything in Donald Trump. And despite all that, I mean, Biden still just barely pulls it off. It takes the associated press and the media several days to call it for Biden. And the, the circumstances, if, if assuming the country hasn't like gotten significantly more left of center, and I think it's roughly the same as it was in 2020, it may be trending in another direction. But what, what makes you think that you can repeat 2020 if you just barely pulled it off then? No, that's a good point. And I think every time they like, for instance, I think Jack Smith, real filing this indictment is again, overplaying their hand. I think the way the Democrats treated our K, including the media tree, our K overplayed their hand. And I think they are, they're doing that over and over again, out of survival, but I think it's actually stoning more distrust down the road. Yeah, I just, there's a lot of things they need to do to win a presidential campaign. And I think just kind of like watching the media and watching some people talk about it. I mean, they have downplayed it like it is the American idol, like Clay Aiken, Rupert Stuttard face off or something. No, no, this is a much, much bigger deal. It takes a lot more than like some Cutesy video with Doritos or whatever the hell they're doing at Harris headquarters to win this thing. Yeah. And also, I just don't find that the majority of the population wants the cool mom energy alongside, you know, like the funnel cake dad wants to go to fair every week. It's just like you lay off, I just, I'd find it cringe worthy. Maybe that's just me. Everything's a war check test now on politics, Jeff. It says more about yourself that maybe the people you're watching. Well, I just like, you know, people who bet on sports, they try to take their emotions out of their picks and they try to look at it objectively. And the only way you, if you try to look at this objectively and take all that away and you look at the two teams facing one another, now, you know, you may quibble with some of the things Trump says and does, but he's doing stuff. What we don't, we're not really sure what the Harris campaign is going to put on the field. And that would make me very anxious if I wanted to put any kind of money on their effort. You know, especially if they got, they're playing with what the polls say is a lead. I mean, I just, I don't know, I'm not there yet. Yeah. It's a big question mark for me at the end of the day. And I just have trouble removing the emotion from it because so many of the different plays are based on playing on people's emotions and we'll see. I hope it does come down to certain just single issues and who actually is campaigning the hardest because that's clearly Trump at this point. Joey, folks, want to find you online, they want to tune into your show or check it out at any point. How can they do so? You can actually watch the show, we film it, put it online on YouTube, Joey Clark Live or at the Joey Clark on Twitter. Joey Clark, ladies and gentlemen, Joey, thanks for making time. Appreciate it, Jeff. All right. We'll be right back. This is a Jeff Porchola, the PIP Talk, what I was six times. Welcome back to the Jeff Porchola, PIP Talk, what, oh, six, five, thanks for being with us on this Wednesday morning. Silicon Andrew Sorrell, our state auditor, let's see here, Dave, Jeff, Governor, Ivy basically did the hideout campaign. We saw how it worked for her all she had to do was not lose versus winning it. Maybe Harris is the same spot, hard to say. The difference is, I told you about this a little bit yesterday, the difference is Ivy was playing with a lead. She was playing with like probably a 20 point lead. I don't know if you pulled it or whatever, but she could play prevent defense because she had a lead over the other candidates in 18 and in 22. Harris does not have a big lead. That's why she can't do what Ivy did. That's the big difference. I mean, the circumstances, yes, the tactics are just similar, but I mean, Ivy didn't give any interviews. She didn't do any debates with the exception. She'd go on like, I think she went on like Bill Britt, Todd Stacey, anybody who was taking money from her allies and they knew that they weren't going to upset that apple cart. She did those interviews. She has her favorites in the media and that's fine because she's Kivie and she's up 25 points over Tommy battle or up 50 points over Tim James. Uh, Toothless Bamber, the flex of 92 for Stolley's team was all year, not Sugarball. Even non-tied fans will say that defense since has been that good, not so much an offensive club. They answer close games, so Toothless, we'll be right back. This is F.M. Talk, 106.5. From Bucks Pocket to the shores of Orange Beach, at all points in between, an insider's perspective on Alabama politics. It's the Jeff Porchow. I don't think Hank does it this way. Welcome back to the Jeff Porchow. We'll have to talk 106.5 out over three begins now. Two, five, what three, four, three, zero, one, zero, six. That's the text line. We'll be a touch with the show. All you gotta do is hit me up on, like I said, the text line participate. Uh, come on Harris, Tim walls on a South Georgia bus tour, nothing, uh, the, that's adorable at all. But, uh, I mean, to be honest guys, the real Georgia goes Atlanta. Um, I, I see some think pieces talking about how important this is, but I, I don't know. I don't think, uh, they got a lot of Democrats or a lot of people aligned with Democrats think that it, if, if they just familiarize themselves or what a great ticket Harris and Walz is, it's a no brainer. It's so much better than Trump. But, uh, I've been wrong about this stuff before, but my gut just tells me, uh, I don't know. I, I, I, you just, just take yourself out of it emotionally. It's very hard. What makes you think Kamala Harris can win the presidency? Well, do we, we, we miss you did Donald Trump can win it because he's won it before. And the polls were wrong and the polls got it wrong in battleground states. And they got it wrong in 2020 and wasn't supposed to be close and whenever I'm reminded, well, the polls were actually right, but they were, you, you can't, I mean, you could call that a W if you like, but they missed it by a lot of points. But back to the 92 team, I'm just kind of looking at the records. I mean, they, they played some close games, uh, Southern Miss early in the season Louisiana detection, a bit of blowout, it wasn't. And then obviously, uh, Tennessee Mississippi state and the Florida SEC championship game. Uh, Mr. Blood, I shall dig deep down deep and find that Monica, both cutes of my mother told me that I thought I should display. Well, thanks for that. Hey. Uh, trying, trying is, uh, you know, uh, appreciated, unnamed texture, how do you pick your lead in music, good stuff, throw in some really old Van Halen once in a while, just to make me happy? I, I, I, I, I, I, I tried to find a classic country theme. The beginning music is tough though, because you want something that's instrumental, but it isn't singing cause there's a voice over going and like we spent a lot of time trying to find something that wasn't, and you don't want to be so cliche that you're using sweet home Alabama as your intro, right? Uh, it's an Alabama show, so we'll do sweet home Alabama. I mean, you know, every Alabama theme thing is lender skinner sweet home Alabama, so just trying to find that right balance, right? When I was on in Huntsville, any of y'all remember the Velcro pygmies and talking about all this War Eagle supper club stuff, they're like those of you who went to Auburn may remember the supper club. Well, they are re, um, imagining in it, uh, there will be a replica of the supper club at the graduate hotel in Auburn opening up next month. And what's kind of interesting is they are putting the, um, well, they used to call the drunk bus. Uh, everybody's called it the shot bus and reporting, but we always call it the drunk bus. When I was there, that's going to be the rooftop bar. Sounds pretty cool. But anyway, back to, uh, when I was on the Huntsville, Velcro pygmies who used to play a lot at the supper club. I had, uh, their cover of sweet home Alabama and it was a little rocked up. But anyway, it's always hard, uh, there to pick your opening intro. Maybe it's time for the, to think of something new, but we'll see. Probably won't be putting much of Anne Hadeland on, uh, sorry to disappoint. Monty Kamala doesn't need to talk to her people and explain her positions. Her party knows they will manipulate the election outcome. So to them, that's a moot point. I, I'm telling you, I'm not putting a pass into manipulate, but it's got to be close enough. It's got to be within the margin of error. You can't have Trump win by four or five points and have a sort of concerted effort to swing of. You, you, you don't know how many ballots are hard to stuff or whatever it takes. Chris, uh, my question is how and when does she become a black woman? I know that people say she's an Indian, but I've always thought of her as a black woman. Did, I mean, like how many of you were like, Oh, she's clearly Indian. And I, I never, I mean, I heard that and, and when she first kind of came on the scene, but when you see her, I mean, she's clearly African American guys. I named text her adult, bother watching her read tomorrow night, the interview has been taped for viewing and already altered for mistakes. Plus questions have already been sent for her and won't stay answer. No, well, I mean, that's, they're trying to win a presidential campaign. A day of texture, nine, eight, five area code. You got to get these texts to a little, little more, a little smaller. I'll read this one, but like two, three sentences. I, I, this is a paragraph, Jeff, I lived in Alabama for the last 16 years, but I moved from Louisiana back into the seventies and eighties. I was heavily involved in the local Louisiana politics. And what happens is the opposition general, the Democrats have a list of all the voters. They have a list of all those voters who never or hardly vote. Those are the people that they print the ballots up for. And that's how they change the results of the election because these people are interested to vote. They just hardly ever vote. And I've seen it happen. I've been indirectly involved and it don't think it would Democrats up more because it does everybody who wants or doesn't want to vote for Trump, otherwise they can change the results of the selection. I'm not saying that they can't, but like it's hard to overcome some of these leads. I mean, we're talking a lot of votes and the problem with it is as such, don't put it past them to do it. They're, they're, they're obviously capable of doing them. The Democrats have shown it's all about power, the ins justify the means, but how do you have such a conspiracy and the bigger the margin, the more people that have to be involved and the more people who are involved, the more of the likelihood this comes out someday. And you have whistleblowers or you have people who go talk to the media or whatever. And I, I, I just, I'm telling you it's, it's got to be razor thin, close for them to flip it one way or another. And I don't think they're there to this memory. Yes, I remember the Southern Miss game, dark times couldn't, couldn't score on a texture. You play good music. Keep it up. Thank you. Johnson, me, the old, uh, uh, uh, drunk bus that I don't know where to whereabouts are, but the, they, what they did, um, this, if you ever got to a police, uh, that's a restaurant called melt and it's like a, they got one in Huntsville, but they, they're like a lot of them were just kind of up north, uh, Midwest and they specialize in variations of the grilled cheese sandwich. So the CEO of that company has decided he wanted to replicate the War Eagle Supper Club. And, uh, John Brand, I believe his name is the original, uh, proprietor of the old Supper Club down there. And what they did, John was they, they made a replica of the bus and I got to use the old shop bus. It's been passed around, uh, the, the lunatic on Dolphin street who owned it for a while and then it got impounded because he couldn't find a place to park it. But it's a, it's not this, it's going to, it's a replica of the bus, uh, name, texture. Harris is going to win because the Democrats are willing to sell joy and you're selling, well, a certified criminal who tried to steal the elasticity of lies and violence. Good luck with that. Just say it. Well, they're not selling joy. They, they aren't. I mean, they, they may talk joy, but you're not selling anything. I mean, like your, your whole text here on name, texture to find joy to me. I mean, first of all, well, what is that? Hey, you're paying a hundred bucks more per trip to the grocery store here. How about some joy? Hey, yeah, that trip to the gas pump is a little more expensive now, but it's okay. Have some joy. Hey, your school system has, uh, this influx of non-English speaking students and we can't afford to pay your, your teachers their salary and they're leaving because we have to pay these bilingual teachers here. How about some joy, you got to put Trump on the side here. You got nothing there. If you watch the DNC convention, you know what joy is, I don't know what, I watch the whole damn thing. I don't know what the hell they're talking about. Tell me what joy is on name, texture, because you cannot do that to find it. I dare you to find joy. This is not a winning campaign guys. You got some problems on name, texture with your candidate and her campaign. I'm not saying she isn't capable of winning, but they're real, real elected to put her out there and that's not, that's not an accident. That's not just a coincidence. There's something going on in this campaign. It's never been done before. You got to understand that. Happy Wednesday. This is from art. Don't worry about your music. Keep it on up. Thank you. Michael, Texas has recently made 1.1 eligible voters from their roles. This is an issue all across the country. No countries are worse than others for sure, but that's what they're doing. I mean, these states are getting in gear and they're doing things to kind of make it harder to cheat as well. And he said, well, you'll never completely eliminated it, but they're going to make it much, much more difficult to sway in an entire election in this country. They may get away with it one time, but they're not going to get away with it every single time, at least not yet. Guys, you got to have a little faith in the system and the self-correcting mechanisms. I know it's hard and I know our institutions and government let you down all the time. But keep in mind, Democrats may be lusting for power, but there's an entire Republican party that's lust for power just as much. And I mean, that's a counterbalance in our system, and I think it makes it harder for them just to be able to just blatantly cheat and re-elections. I mean, you got to look at how big this country is and to millions and millions of people. And you look at each state and to millions and millions of voters and, you know, think about trying to find 100,000 votes, 100,000 is a lot of votes. That's a lot of ballot stuffing. And to do it without no one noticing and no one screaming foul at the top of their lungs. It's hard to do toothless bammer, have it on the cup of joy, dirt dagger, Christians are ready to see Jesus that put it, come on and hit in the White House. This will be the end. I will pray for all that believe anti-Christ Democrats. Squirrel Democrats describe joy as love is love. And we see example that in Adam Rink, the popular proverb involved in the L.MQP events plus arrested for child abuse, stims exaggerated for Ted Trump's presidency means oppression, even though they lived through it happily and well joyously. We're right back. This is F.M. Talk 10065. Every game with nose. It's midnight in my gun. Just hear that whip win. See the stars right up the purple sky. Welcome back to the Jeff Pore show that from talk 100652513430106 is the text line programming note coming up tomorrow. We got a from Marie Fogle probably have a couple other guests to be named later. I just always figuring that out kind of on the fly. So by all means, please tune in tomorrow Twitter.com or now I should start saying x.com backslash Jeff underscore poor, and so that eight o'clock hour I will post a guest roster. Back to the unnamed texture who was trying to sell me on joy writes this, why in the world would you or anyone want Trump to be pulling or the country president Harris will destroy Trump into the bait, which is why he's now trying to slip away and refuse to the bait coward that he is. You know, it's too much MSNBC, but put Trump aside and you won't tell me you can't tell me because there's nothing you can tell me that exists as to what this campaign is doing that makes you think it's a world class first rate presidential campaign. It's just, well, how would you want Trump? Well, here's a deal. People want Trump. People are going to vote for Trump. I, you know, rationalize it all you want their vote counts just as much as yours. Okay. So think of it like this unnamed texture half the battle is dissuading people for voting for Trump. And there's clearly that effort that's underway. The other 50% is persuading them to vote for Kamala Harris. So at best, all you're doing is keeping people on the sidelines and not voting at all. You're not motivating them to go and vote for your candidate. Well, not you, but the Harris campaign, at least not yet. And I know like I wrote, well, they got an eternity. They got told November 5th, but but it's getting light and game guys in this life cycle of this presidential cycle. So like you, you can scream about how much Trump sucks all you want. We've been doing that for almost 10 years now. And here's the deal. You've been doing that for almost 10 years. He's been impeached twice. He's been convicted 34 times by a jury in New York. He has been shot at. He has been, you know, he's had his, uh, a moral, I go home, rated, uh, if Trump's not out of the picture. He's got it. Zero. He has it left the scene. He is actually it's striking distance and not in the lead for the presidency. What is going to change that on paper, Kamala Harris ought to be blowing him out. Biden should have been blowing him out. They cannot put this guy away and the Harris walls campaign and they're just going to go do the same thing over and over again. What are they doing that is promoting their effort? I don't see it. Money, the Democratic party, modus operandi is not to explain themselves, but to reduce their constituencies down to a color and everything else is racial. You see, these are good with it. How do you counter that with intellectual, I think about Biden 2020 and he was going to cure cancer and we were going to like do all these, you know, he made all these promises that he couldn't fulfill. She's not making promises. How hard. I mean, there's like somebody's really dumb gimmicky things that they're for, but you haven't heard her articulate them in reference to the Democrats keeping the election close. Hell, they'll just shut the polls down and say so they can count, bring in the needed votes to win and announce the Democrat party winner days later. I'm 57 years old and have seen an election shut down with the exception of the hanging chat issue Bush Gore also, while we're at state to play the election rules, the blue states do not. They're always one step ahead of the Republicans. I still think that it's hard to keep that kind of a scandal, that kind of a conspiracy on the down low and like how bad would it get before the deep state? I mean, there would be back, there would be a significant backlash to it and maybe they get away with it. But I mean, they're just, it's a recipe for civil unrest. It would sit shockwaves to the American economy. It would make countries abroad not want to invest in the United States. There's a lot of risk associated with that strategy. We'll be right back. This is F.M. Talk about 065. A couple of guys in first class on a flight from New York to Los Angeles, kind of making small talk, killing time, flirting with the flight attendant. Oh, my love, can this really be the end of the distance out of movie with the Memphis News? Welcome back to the Jeff Moore Show, and if we talk about 065, they should be with us on this Thursday morning, I mean, this Wednesday morning. Let's see here, joining us now on the line is our state auditor. We pay him a visit about once a month, always appreciative of his time, but a state auditor. Andrew Sorrell joins us on the line. Andrew, good morning. How are you? Good morning, Jeff. I'm doing well. Thanks for making time. Well, I was appreciated. Well, you just kind of give us a -- you're right down in the presidential election, and I'll give you my take real quick, and I'll be kind of on this theme all morning. You look at what's going on, and take Trump out of it for just a moment. The Harris campaign to me doesn't look like it's doing enough to win the White House. They're banking on a lot of things to fall their way. I don't know, it just doesn't look like a world-class made for longevity type of campaign. Yeah, I think they're writing their initial kind of surge in momentum, so to speak, and they had a very strong rollout for Kamala. She boosted up in the polls, but I've been saying on the radio for a long time now, don't let that worry you. I mean, we had a month of coverage for Republicans. We had the terrible debate performance by Joe Biden, Trump looks way, way better than Biden at that debate. Then we had the Trump assassination attempt, then we had the Republican Convention, and we had J.D. Vance picked his venture running mate, so there were so many news stories for Republicans getting all the news coverage, Trump was ahead in the polls, and then everything changes for the next month, right? Then you have Joe Biden dropping out Kamala will come in the nominee, who's Kamala going to pick for her vice presidential nominee, and then you've got the Democrat Convention. So there's been so many news stories. Now, the Democrats have probably gotten half a billion dollar free coverage for the media in the last month, and Kamala has predictably surged in the poll. I predicted this was going to happen, and I said, "Don't worry about it. Let's see where the polling settled out after Labor Day. We'll have some indication of which way this race might actually go." But I don't think that the Harris Wall campaign has built the last. They don't really have policy positions yet, and they're basically running on a "We are not Donald Trump, Orange Man bad" platform. They mentioned Trump hundreds of times at the convention. If the Republican mentioned, they hardly mentioned Biden or Kamala administration, really, they made it about America. They made it about unifying the country and everything, and so I think their whole -- their entire platform, the strategy for the Democrats, is the same as it was in 2020. We're not that great, but Trump's worst vote for us. I mean, just -- I try to be objective here. I know right-wing talk show hosts does 18, 19 news in Breitbart. It's not really -- it's very hard to do. But if Kamala is my candidate, she's my gal. I want her to be president, and I'm really rooting for her. I mean, I'm frustrated. I would have to be frustrated. I don't think Joy is going to get you there, because I look at it, and I'm like, "Well, they need to -- I would feel better if they were doing a lot more," they had her coached up. It's taken way too long to get her coached up and have her memorized a game plan or whatever. It's way too long, and to me, this is a very satisfactory circumstance. So I don't know. I mean, Democrats seem to get high on their own supply all too often, and they just leave Trump out of this, and us, as Republicans, out of it. But there's a lot of problems, and they're like trying to sell for a destination here, but they're stuck in the harbor, it feels like. Look at the main decision she's made since she's become the presumptive nominee was to pick a vice-president's or running back. Let's analyze how she did on that decision, to your point about, "Well, is she going to be a good candidate?" Her pick was a total flop. She could have went with Shapiro from Pennsylvania. That would have actually made sense at the time Trump was leading the poll by 4% in Pennsylvania. If they could have flipped Pennsylvania, they might have taken the White House, but she couldn't take Shapiro because he's Jewish. And there's so many people in Democrat Party that are just anti-Jewish and pro-Palestinian right now. She couldn't get away with that pick. So who does she go with? She goes with Tim Walz. Well, what has Tim Walz done except be a complete and total radical as governor? Now interestingly, when he was in the Congress, he was a liberal, but he was not what I would call an AOC radical. So look at some of his positions since he's been governor. How about the Take Pride Act, which became law in Minnesota, that prevents discrimination based on sexual orientation, the law initially excluded pedophiles from being protected, but then it was rewritten. But then there was Amendment HF No. 165, who was introduced by some trans activists to modernize the definition of sexual orientation, to include attraction to children. And Tim Walz signs the thing. The same year he signs that trans-refuge bill in the law, which allowed the state to give the hormones, the sterilization drugs, the gender mutilating surgeries to children without their parents' knowledge or consent. And also this is the bill that put those tampons in the boy's bathroom in Minnesota. And then the most radical abortion bill in history contrasts out with Alabama. We have the best abortion law in the country. I was proud to vote for it when I was a legislature, but in 2023, Tim Walz signed the most radical abortion bill in the history of the state, and it allows abortions for any reason through all nine months of pregnancy, including on minor children without knowledge or consent of the parent. It allows for the gruesome late-term abortions, painful infants, all of that, provide zero protections for infants who survive an abortion. We did the Born Alive bill. Representative Ginny Schaber had the Born Alive bill here in Alabama. She said she had heard from witnesses in Alabama that they had seen babies born alive that were later killed because we didn't have the Born Alive bill that says if an abortion is botched and the child is born alive, you have to try to save it. We got that bill through in Alabama, complete opposite in Minnesota. They just let him die. So he's so radical on abortion that reportedly Nancy Pelosi has even asked him if he can tone down his pro-choice stances because they're too radical, they're going to drive away the moderate. Yeah, I think that's true. Going back to that pick, though, and that's an interesting point, like how did that come to be? How did he become the nominee? I don't think she put a lot of, I think she had other people kind of had her ear on this and, you know, the other thing about it, Andrew, it's this, it's just a, it's a straight-up like play to people's perceptions, the judging the book by its cover, like, we're so superficial right now. I don't know, though. I think you could go 100% superficial and try to moderate and everything will just work out. I mean, to me, and I know I talked about this with Biden, but, but this is, this remains true. Trump is a twice impeached, convicted of 34 counts, has all these things. If you just look at this on paper, Kamala Harris ought to be up 10 points. She's not. And then that's, to me, just to sign that this campaign's got some work to do. This is kind of like when, let's say you have an incumbent state senator and you run a poll. Nobody has come out and out against them and you run a poll and the state senator is winning the poll 45 to 35. You're like, oh, he's winning. Yeah. No, that's terrible is what that means. If an incumbent is ever polling below 50%, that's already bad. And it's somebody that nobody even knows who he really is is already a 35. You can predictably say that an incumbent is going to lose the election. But I understand your point completely Kamala should be ahead 10 points on Trump and the fact that she's not is possibly evident that her campaign is going to continue eroding. And I think we get into September and the honeymoon period wears off with her and wall. And we get a first presidential debate next month. That should be interesting to see which way that goes. I know that the base has helped and hurt with Joe Biden. They really, really helped. Right? I mean, they're, they're so bad that their nominee ended up dropping out. I wish Trump had not debated them until after the Democrat convention, we could have locked in a win for sure if that had been the case. But back in 2020, you may remember, I think it was the second debate where Trump was interrupting Joe Biden so much and really people left with just kind of a bad taste in their mouth. Trump wouldn't let Joe Biden be. And even though I think the content of what Trump was saying, be Joe Biden, the way in which he did it did not and the polling reflected that and help kind of propel Biden if you believe Biden won without, you know, illegals voting for him, which, which I don't. But nonetheless, Biden ended up in the White House, so these debates can really move an election a lot. I mean, hundreds of millions of people either watch a live or watch a replay later. So that's going to be an interesting thing to see is how does the Trump Harris debate go? Yeah. And I know that they're like real, you know, everybody on our side, well, everybody, and there is this apprehension about Trump or whatever. But they're just not looking at what is the Harris campaign doing to make you think it's a winning campaign? I just, I, no one wants to, no one is really talking about that in the mainstream media, obviously. But well, they're talking about their good fundraise or had to have had good fundraising, but fundraising only goes before you got to have a message to put out there for the fundraising to be useful. I mean, it's just going to be attack ads against Trump and then tell one of our guests earlier, if everything's an October surprise and nothing's an October surprise and they've been beating up Trump for 10 years, if Trump was so bad, I mean, then they shouldn't, they wouldn't have needed to change horses. They could have stuck with Biden and Biden would have won. But I mean, obviously that's, that's an acknowledgement that it does matter who the Democrats put up. And the other thing is like if Trump were so bad, they could be beating up on him for all these years, how come he's not at zero? I mean, he's right in the thick of it. So that, that to me, there's a lot of flaws with this like strategy there, their employees. So I mean, I guess we'll see, but people that hit the panic button to say this is over, Kamala's going to have the media carry her to the presidency. It's just not going to be enough. That there's not enough there to make person that you should make technological conclusion. The Democrats have overplayed their hand and back in 2022, 2023, Donald Trump's popularity had started to dip in the polling. You saw Ron DeSantis come out and even before he announced her president, four or five months before he announced the president, there was national polls out for Republican primary that had Trump at 35 and the pandas at 30 and it looked like Trump might actually be vulnerable and a Republican primary. And then what happened? The Democrats indicted them and convicted them on 34 count and the whole country woke up and said, this is political, this is a political prosecution, this is unfair. Trump surged in popularity. That's where I think the Democrats went wrong. They took it a step too far. If they had not done that, who knows what kind of race we've been looking at now, but everybody has sympathy on the right. And I think the independence in this country, I think they all had sympathy for what happened to Donald Trump because they thought, what if that was me? Well, let's look at Donald Trump for a moment. I mean, I don't know what different he could do that would satisfy a lot of people who, hey, yeah, I want him to win, buddy. I mean, everything that man does is going to be criticized by the media. The media are going to make it out to be a scandal. You got to stop at this point, just accept that the media are going to be working against you and play your game like you need to be playing it, otherwise, like always trying to go back and correct things that the media say were wrong and getting excited about that. That's not, that's just not how you win. Well, another big question, Mark, that remains to be seen is how does the polling look with RFK dropping out endorsing Trump and taking the fame off the ballot and the swing state, how does that play into the race? And these third party candidates do play a big role in who wins the presidency. You saw that with Ross Perot back in the '90s, who wasn't in 2000? Was it Ralph Nader? They used to talk about the Nader effect and how Ralph Nader running in the green party was going to affect Al Gore and, you know, possibly it did. I mean, arguably could Al Gore have gotten another 73 votes in Florida if Ralph Nader hadn't been on the ballot there, quite possibly. So these third party candidates do affect, but now you've got a situation where the third party candidate has dropped out and endorsed one, which I thought was very interesting, Jeff. I don't know if you had time. I actually took the 45 minutes to listen to RFK's entire speech where he dropped out and said why he was doing what he was doing. I mean, a lot of the points the guy made, I agreed with them. Most of his policies, the guy has been a Democrat this whole life, all right? I don't line up with him. But his points on the Ukraine war on many different issues with child nutrition, what's in our food, the chemicals in our food, all those points, man, it was pretty eye opening to me. I appreciate him and what he said. And I hope he actually is successful on getting some of those things through if Trump is fortunate enough to win reelection. Well, and, you know, I think, I mean, I just, I think there's just, they're doing the right thing as far as the circumstances lend themselves. And what Trump doesn't need is his allies saying, hey, why didn't you do this? Why didn't you do that? Back to the RFK thing, and then I, yeah, I, I, I caught most of that. The problem with that campaign, I think it is right now and it's kind of interesting time to be a Republican as a Republicans own that space as the outsider, had it been Mitt Romney versus Obama or whoever, you know, then maybe the third party has a lane. But post 2016, Andrew, I think it's this that the Republicans occupy the quote, a quote outsider. Yeah, that's a good point, but I kind of respect RFK in the sense that he cares more about the issues he's running on than he does being president himself, and he came out and said as much. He said, I'm not doing this in a vanity campaign. If I can drop out of the race and work with one of the two candidates, and by the way, he reached out to Kamala. She said, no, she wouldn't even drop to Trump for actually taking the call and meeting with the guy. But if I can drop out and work with Donald Trump, for instance, and he wins, and we can try to implement some ideas in the public policy, these are ideas that Republicans would agree with. He got a huge round of applause when Trump introduced him at the event the next day out there in Arizona when this happened. And he said, I care more about getting my ideas in the public policy and I care about being elected president myself, and I can respect the guy who does that. Real quick, Andrew, before I let you go, we had this story, but I wanted to get you to kind of talk about your new post there at the State Financial Officers Foundation and getting elected as a leadership role. Yes. As soon as I won my primary for state auditor back in 2022, I had a member of the State Financial Officers Foundation reach out to me and say, hey, you need to join this group at the group of conservative comptroller, treasurer, auditors, chief financial officers from around the country. We band together. We fight the Biden administration, rule changes on mortgages, for instance, subsidizing people with worse credit with the people who have better credit. You know, they help cover some of their fees, all those type things we speak out against and we do it at the group. And there's 38 of us from 27 different states, so we get a lot of national news articles out of it. And after I learned what the group was about, what it stood for, I said, yes, I'll join. And fast forward two years later, I ran for a position of auditor at large in that organization. It was fortunate to be elected a couple of weeks ago, and my promise to them was I'm going to work to expand this organization. There's only seven state auditors in the group right now, including myself. I said I'm going to, in a minimum, I'm going to try to get us to double digits. I've got the Republican nominee for auditor in North Carolina and in Montana lined up to join FFLF. Should they be fortunate enough to win those races? Montana is very likely, Trump, with 18 points there. North Carolina is a toss-up, don't know which way that'll go. But if those two win and join, that'll get us to nine, and I've just done that in the last three weeks. So I've got a whole list of people to call. I'm going to try to help build this organization. I really believe in it. All right, Andrew, we've got to get out of here a little long, but we always appreciate your insight, and we'll get you on, we'll talk more about what's going on in auditor's office next time. Thank you. Thank you, Andrew, Cirel, our state auditor, we'll be right back, this is FIT Talk, 1-0-6-5. We'll be joined by April Marie Fogel, our Thursday, regular, and a couple of other guests to be named. For midday mobile coming up, Sean Sullivan at the battleship today, so you want to make sure that you stay tuned. Or that, I'll see here, we'll get through these texts really as quick as I can before the music plays. Joy! "Is there a tip that rebranding her cackle?" That's funny, but John writes, "I'm voting for Trump, 10,000% jackass is no good for the U.S.A. and a texture. Jeff, it's rope-a-dope. You won't see it coming. We have a plan." P.S., Bama's going to blow Auburn out of the stadium on our way to National Championship in September 19, I don't know, I hope your political prognostications are as good as your sports prognostications there are named texture. Michael, it's not a big stretch to keep an eye on the election that's silent for the Dems because big media is under-quarter. Most people are 10 times more than foreign-owned football than politics, so just listen to whatever the mainstream media spew. I still think it creates a controversy, Democrats aren't going to be in charge forever. I mean, there's a lot of problems with trying to rig an election. Now, saying that they're above it, they may try to do it, but you guys who are so cynical about the process and to the point, it doesn't matter, I'm not going to vote anyway, it's all rigged, I think it's the wrong approach. I'm telling you and then every side does this in every election, they cry foul, but Democrats are really going to go in, stuff ballots, and try to win an election that way. Eventually, that will come out. Dan, I just heard, "Come on, let's defend the defund the police and have mandatory buyback of assault weapons with no definition of what an assault weapon is." So basically, she's going to disarm us to take away our protection and people are voting for that. I mean, there's a lot of people who don't appreciate the second amendment, Dan, but they said this about Obama, that he was going to do the same thing and everybody went out and bought all the ammo up. I don't know. As long as we have a second amendment, it's going to be really hard for them to confiscate their guns. So anyway, I got to get out of here and it's been a pleasure. I promise to try to do better tomorrow. Sorry, Phyllis. Once again, I forgot to say goodbye. This has been the Jeff Forest Show on F.M. Talk, 1-0-6-5. [Music] [Music] [Music] (music)
