I want to first, guys, do the right thing. I want to thank my team and Evita last night for coverage. But most importantly, and I think my entire team, would you all agree? Everybody heads up. Pay attention to your first set because it's important. It's not about us. Who is it about?

It's about the audience, man.

And believe me, I say that from the bottom of my sometimes broken heart. You guys and ladies out there are the best in the business. I want to explain to you just quickly because I want to waste any time, but it's important to thank you. What we did last night, we decided to do this show. Wendy, last night's coverage, when did we set do it?

Wednesday. It was like last night when we made the final call. We did no advertising at all. Our advertising budget for let's tonight showgy was what, one tweet? That was it. We did nothing.

Innuendos. We Jerry rigged the whole studio. We had a pillowcase for a lighting diffuser. We hired a makeup artist. What Evita, like 2 hours before the show. And look at this. We were the. At one point we were the third most watched stream in the entire world. Here were the numbers. By the end of the night, the only people who beat us last night, even despite some hiccups on Rumble, were CNN, CB's, Fox and USA Today. That barely slipped out and ended show. At one point we were third, folks, there was a hiccup on rumble, too. At the beginning, we didn't have the hiccup. We would have blown them all away.

Thank you. The revolution is here. As our good friend Anita, the best moderator in business said last night, we're in charge now. Where the media now. Thank you. All in the chat. Yeah, man. And listen, this whole team here is so appreciative. Thank you. Hey, before I even get to the absolute annihilation was last night's debate. Just quickly, as if today couldn't get any better, the supreme Court, which. Listen, they're just doing their job. Nobody deserves a round of applause here.

Huge decisions. Chevron deference, in other words, that a bunch of bureaucrats can decide your life rather than legislators we can vote for. That's gone. That's gone. See you. Bye bye now.

Hosta la vista, terminator two style. See you, baby. Goodbye. No more huge, huge.

Now lawmakers are going to have to do what any guesses of either. What lawmakers are going to have to do.

She's like, make laws.

Yes.

They can't just leave it up to the administrative state. 2nd January 6, they were all, to all of the January 6 prisoners. Most of them were charged with this 1512 obstruction thing. They made it up. It was an Enron law. It had nothing to do with January 6. Where's that? Anybody know? That's gone, too, with chevron. Here's Chevron picking it up like it's the garbage. Tie it up, take it out, walk it out, dump it in the can.

Now back to the debate. I'll go into all that next week. We'll be in Montana, but I'll go into all that, I promise. But tonight, today, last night, let's focus on what you witnessed last night. Greg Gutfeld said it best. I'm reading Gutfeld's tweets this morning and he summed up, sometimes people say it better than you even though you're saying it in your own internal conversation. The first thing I look at when I open up x this morning, I'm groggy, I'm tired, and get to sleep till about 02:00 in the morning. So I pop up, I turn over, rubbing the sand from my eyes. But, Michael, was I working out this morning?

I was. Because, no bullshit, it's time to get back to work. First thing I see is a Gutfeld tweet and he says, I woke up thinking, did that just happen last night? Was it really as bad as I thought? And the answer, folks in the chat is, yes, sir. Matter of fact, it was worse than you thought. The single worst debate performance you have ever seen in your entire life. Ladies and gentlemen, when you lose CNN, Chuck Todd, the young turds and everyone else, it is over. Now.

That's the good news.

That's the good news audience.

Guys and ladies, my friends, what's the bad news?

Yes. The bad news is we needed a push, but we got a push, meaning we gotta have our moment. We wanted them to have our moment. You remember why from yesterday's show?

Because we don't want Biden out of the race. He is the single worst candidate in the country and I want to run against him. Last night there's a small problem. Yes, we can all kind of celebrate the victory. The Democrats. And it does kind of feel good to watch this narcissistic, kid sniffing, loser, woman groping, daughter showering zero suffer after all the suffering he's put on us. But I have the candid with you last night and I can't be a hypocrite. I said yesterday we needed more of a push. It was such complete destruction. My fear now is that the likelihood of Biden not being the candidate now is about 51%.

What are campaigns? What are campaigns? There are two things. They are snapshots and sound bites. That is it.

Every single snapshot. Picture and soundbite last night.

I don't want to do it. Pardon my. Was fucking devastating.

Evita, what did Biden look like in this, in the side by side screen? What was it?

Do you see the coverage with the great Evita last time? He looked. He looked like he was dead, folks.

Why was his mouth open? Did you see it? And why was he hunched away?

I'm not exaggerating. If you watch it, we'll show you video, I promise. But why was he doing this?

I'm sorry, Vita. I'm sorry, folks. He had a cold and Evita picked it out. He said, it's amazing how he caught the cold in the middle of the debate when shit started going bad, right? All of a sudden, it's like, why we caught a cold.

The snapshots. Forget what he said. We're not even at that yet. Campaigns are two things, brothers and sisters. That's it.

They are not white papers. They're not editorials. Forget the polls. Campaigns are pictures and sound bites. That's all people remember. Both of them were devastating.

I'm going to tell you something else, too. I'm sorry. I've got so much to say. This is like a mind dump.

The rules last night that were slanted to help Joe Biden. Tell me in the geek, he put the chat up on the screen, folks, in the chat, do you agree with me or not? I think the rules, in the most ironic political twist of all time, actually helped Donald Trump. I do.

The split screen of their two faces. Donald Trump sitting there, serious presidential chest out. What's Biden sitting there?

Looks like he's dying.

The muted microphones kept everybody calm. Yes, look. Yes, yes, yes. Look at what I have created. And. And listen. The moderators were not as crazy as they could have been. They could have been a lot crazier. I'm not giving anyone a round of applause. I'm just saying avid. And I did it live. The questions were not that crazy. There was like one liberal question and they shut up. They shut up. I don't like these people. Don't. But, but let's not be crazy either about it, Evita. Am I nuts?

Not having an audience, too couldn't have been better. Could have been just everybody sat there and he made Biden look like a child.

Tapper and bash, you know, there was some liberal slanted stuff. There was that dopey question by Tapper about how tax cuts led to the deficit, which is total bullshit. However, come on, folks, let's be honest. The questions could have been a thousand times worse. And I think we successfully pressured them into asking the question. Shutting up.

They got killed last night.

Look at this New York Times thing, too. I'm so proud of you that you guys are here and informed so far ahead of these lying garbage can democrats. New York Times. Remember when he was saying how misleading videos are trailing Biden as he battles age doubts? You see the New York Times headlines today? Biden's age shows you guys are way ahead of this. Misleading videos. Maybe the misleading videos were being portrayed by the New York Times.

However, again, it's not all good news. I'm here to tell you the truth. The bad news with this is, ladies and gentlemen, Operation Dump Joe Biden and what I warned you about. Gosh, I wish I had the clips, but playing clips of yourself honestly is kind of a dick move and a little dorky unless you really have to, which is necessary. I told you, and you know it. If you're a p one listener. Three months ago, I said to you, the democrats picked this debate time for Biden for a reason. What you guys remember? Because if he sucked, it gives them time to plan. They've got to find out how to switch money around. I'll get to that later, folks. There's like a 51% shot right now that Joe Biden is not the nominee. And that's bad news because the guy is the most beatable candidate in the country right now. I'm not taking anything for granted. I don't want to hear shit about a red wave. I'm just telling you, got to show up and vote. Polls don't mean shit. You know what means? Shit. Votes, baby. Votes go out and vote. Like we lost the debate in humiliating fashion last night.

But we want this guy.

This guy has done damage to this country, and he deserves to go down in flames as kids sniffing loser.

What's the left wing bible? Any of you guys know Politico? Politico playbook did. Left loves this. This is their morning email communication sheet. Dear liberals, here is what you're supposed to say today. You think they were spinning for Biden? No, they weren't. Politico playbook.

Does it get any worse, folks? Democrats wake up to a nightmare.

Look at these insiders talking to playbook.

Our phones blew up. They know, just like yours. Quote, this is from democrats, guys, this damn, this isn't us.

I picked the wrong day to stop sniffing glue.

I'm sorry. I picked the wrong day to stop sniffing glue, said a Democrat House member. Here's another one. These are Democrats.

I'm on a lot of chains of people gaming out how Biden withdraws. Need an open convention. He has to go. Where's Clinton? Al Gore, Nancy Pelosi? Clyburn, a former senior Obama Obama official wrote, folks, I told you when they agreed to this, I'm sorry, patting yourself on the back is a dick move, but I never want to waste your time. I told you the Democrats were setting him up.

He wanted a debate because he's a cocky, narcissistic, sociopathic loser. Joe Biden, that's who he is. The Democrats said, fine, this is what happened. I told you, you want to debate, you're going to do it early.

And behind the scenes are saying get him in there early because when he messes this up, we have time to get him out. You know who's stopping him?

Jill. Jill Biden won't let him out. Ladies and gentlemen, Biden. You know, I know there's a lot of pressure today, but a lot of good friends of mine in Washington, DC are telling me Biden woke up today and still is not going to leave. Matter of fact, the Hill is reporting it right now, this morning. Not only is he not going to leave, Evita sent me a text right before the show. He wants to do a second debate. Folks, the guy is a lunatic.

Stop talking about Joe. Bribe in like he's a normal person. You're a normal person. You have kids, you have a dog, you have a fence, you got a house, you got a car. You're not crazy like this grifting loser. Stop looking at him like he's normal. You're like, oh, a normal person would leave. Great. He's not normal and either is his family.

He is not going to drop out until what I've told you for a year. Now. When the donors force him out and Obama, then he'll leave. That's the only way.

Do not assume that this guy is going to drop out. Now, having said that, I, these are not contradictory thoughts. I rate right now 51, 52, 55% chance he does drop out at some point. Here's going to be the key. You ready?

Joe Biden is in North Carolina today. He's supposed to be giving some kind of public comments. I want you to listen. If he opens the door, if he opens the door, you'll hear something like, well, last night could have gone better. Some decisions have to be something. You hear anything like that, which I doubt. If you do, he's gone. He's gone. He's not going to make the decision overnight if you don't. And he's resolute. I can tell you right now, we're, they're stuck with this guy and we want him, we don't want him out.

Here's something telling, too. You may have missed Hakeem Jeffries, the minority leader in the House, probably one of the three, four most powerful democrats in the country. Did you notice his comments this morning? Hakeem Jeffries did not back up Biden at all.

He said, hey, I think we're going to win the house in November, folks. That is a bad, bad sign.

All right. Now that we set up and laid the groundwork, we seeded the chia pet to grow for this show. But do we have 150,000 people? We're not even at the first break yet. Holy Moses. Thank you. And last night we were, that we were monster, monster. Show us. I love you guys. You guys are so great. Thank you for sticking with us. Love you so much. This is going to start with this. Campaigns are snapshots and sound bites. That's all they are. Are those two things, in my opinion. This will be the soundbite of the night. You'll see this as this settles, be played over and over again. This is going to be the only thing people are going to remember from this debate. Donald Trump was quick. He was impressive. He was smart. He didn't come off mean at all. What did I tell you the other day? Show you a bit of your kind side. We get it. This is going to be the soundbite of the night. This was just the nail in the coffin for this guy.

I really don't know what he said.

He didn't either. Check this out.

Donald Trump
What's happened? I've changed it in a way that now you're in a situation where there are 40% fewer people coming across the border illegally. It's better than when he left office. And I'm going to continue to move until we get the total ban on the total initiative relative to what we can do with more border patrol and more asylum officers. President Trump, I really don't know what he said at the end of that sentence.

Dan Bongino
I don't think he knows what he said either.

Donald Trump
Look.

Dan Bongino
I'm sitting here. The studio's big but not that big. So Venus right there, like off to my right side, we're looking at each other like nobody has any idea what this guy just said.

And, you know, the way, it's not even, it's not even that Trump said that. It's like the way he said it, it didn't come off that mean, but it came off just mean enough that the whole audience is like, what did he just say?

I can't describe it, man. It's like, you know, the Genesee qua, there's that personality characteristic where people can be charming but no one can peg down why. Oh, he talks nice. He nice or something. That was Trump last night. Whatever the X Factor was last night, Donald Trump had it. He said that in the. He didn't yell it. He didn't scream it. He didn't even, he sounded just right to make the point, but not even condescending about, like, this guy. I'm sorry, but this guy's just lost.

I, I'm, I'm okay at this. I'm pretty good at this. I mean, we've only built the biggest digital show online.

That's going to be the soundbite of the debate because it sums up everything you need to know. Joe Biden is so unclear in his thought process and his policies. I don't know what he said, but Trump said either, does he?

That is going to be the soundbite of the debate.

I've got a lot more for you, Joe, confused last night and what is a very, very important political message I always try to tattoo on your brain. What are the most damaging political stories out there, folks? Yes.

Political stories that change your pre existing notion of who a candidate is. Joe Biden last night, there are five or six of these, just hammered this guy. I'm telling you, he is politically finished. I'm not telling you we can't win. Between the scamming and the other stuff, don't mistake that. I'm telling you last night, and I sent this text to the Trump team this morning. I said Donald Trump ended Joe Biden last night.

Quick break. I got more for you, including Joe Biden. You know, he beat Medicare. What does that mean? Knows? Nobody knows. Nobody knows what Joe Biden said last night.

Hey, I love Patriot Mobile, folks. They've been with me for a long time. This is a really great company. The owner of the company is a really, really great guy.

Thanks, Patriot mobile. We love you. Here is another one here. I want you to contrast these two. A campaign is what, yes, snapshots and sound bites, but it's a contrast.

In the United States, we have a two party system. It's not the best system, but it's the best of the worst systems. It's the only thing we've got right now. It's Trump versus Biden. RFK's in the race. I respect him running. Everybody's got the right to run, folks. He's not going to win. You effectively have two choices, Trump or Biden. So when you have a binary contrast, even though Biden did the worst debate performance I've ever seen of any candidate ever, I'm going to tell you, Trump was great last night, but I don't even think it was his best debate performance. I think he's actually had even better ones in the original GOP primary in 2016.

But he was so good last night, he made Biden look even worse. Watching this clip where Biden says he beat Medicare, no one even knows what it means. But listen to the Trump response. Watch the contrast. It's important. Check this out.

Donald Trump
Making sure that we're able to make every single, solitary person eligible for what I've been able to do with the COVID excuse me, with dealing with everything we have to do with, look, if we finally beat Medicare, thank you, President Biden.

Dan Bongino
President Trump, he's right.

Donald Trump
He did beat Medicare.

Dan Bongino
He beat it to death and he's destroying Medicare.

Folks, you're gonna hate me at the end of this show. I'm sorry because I love you, but sound bites, sound bites and snapshots. That's it.

Dan, enough. We've heard, no, you haven't heard it enough.

No one's going to remember this debate two weeks from now. No, they will. No, they will not.

They'll remember that and they'll remember. He doesn't even know what he said. That's it.

That is why these moments are so important, folks. Come on. Let's be honest, folks. In the chat, was anything really, did you learn anything of real substance last night? It's not a knock on the candidate.

Everything you needed to know about Donald Trump, tariffs, school choice, abortion, things we even disagree on criminal justice forum, you already know. Correct. He was President Biden. He's going to raise your taxes, hate school choice, and he wants no limits on abortion. Did you learn that last night? Oh, yeah, he said it. You didn't learn it last night. We already knew it.

Last night was about presentation style, style snapshots and sound bites. That is it.

That is why moments like that were so important. Do you see Twitter last night?

Do you see a lot of minority audiences on Twitter? I follow everything, folks. It was brutal.

Brutal.

Even worse than you know.

Here's another one. You know, the Obama team leaked to the media that apparently the Biden team is, their family's into, quote, weird shit, which I think we already know. Drug problems with the sun, having a thing with the dead brothers, widow, the showers. It's just disgusting. I mean, you know, Evita and I grew up in pretty healthy families with siblings. And we're watching this, like, someone get me, like, a bar at Tricklo san, antibacterial soap or whatever. I don't even know if they use that stuff. In your mind. It was gross.

What the hell was this last night? Joe Biden's like, women are being raped by their brothers and sisters and spouses. Listen, rapes a serious thing. I'm sure it does happen tragically.

What is he even getting at? We're talking about the rape of american citizens by illegals who are not supposed to be here. He's talking about sisters rape people. What the hell was, what was he even talking about?

Listen to this.

Donald Trump
There's so many young women who have been, including a young woman who just was murdered, and he went to the funeral.

The idea that she was murdered by an immigrant coming in, they talk about that. But here's the deal. There's a lot of young women are being raped by their I, by their in laws, by their spouses, brothers and sisters by just ridiculous. And they can do nothing about it, and they try to arrest them on a cross state line.

Dan Bongino
Thank you.

Donald Trump
There have been many young women murdered.

Dan Bongino
By the same people he allows to.

Donald Trump
Come across our border.

Dan Bongino
Oh, the response, folks.

Listen, I'm gonna, again, just being candid with you. It's hard for me to be totally objective because I really personally have a lot of love for President Trump.

But, you know, we disagree on some things. I think that I value his friendship the most because he is not the person the left wing media portrays. He does not demand, issue loyalty. You know what he want? He demands from people personal friendship, loyalty. Don't f me over. I want f you over. He does not demand issue loyalty. I promise you, ever.

We have some disagreements on stuff, but I'm telling you the fairest way I can.

I have never seen him more impressive and lucid than last night. Every single response, boom.

People are being raped because of people he lets in while. What's Biden talking about, Evita? Do we even know what he meant by that? People are being raped by their in laws, brothers and sisters. What does that have to do with immigration folks? I don't even know. I'm honestly, I don't even want to go there because I don't even know what this guy's talking about. I really don't. I don't know what he's talking about, what trauma he has in his life. But whatever came out of his mouth last night, I don't want anything to do with.

Right?

I mean, I don't even.

Here's another issue. Last night he's going to have.

It's not just that Biden is mentally unwell. That is crystal clear now.

No, we were not manipulating you with cheap fakes. We were telling you the truth, man. It's not just me. It was Levin, it was Bannon. It was all of the conservative hosts out there, Jesse, Sean, showing you these videos. We were telling you the truth. The guy's not there.

The guy's not there.

It's not, however, last night that he was shown to be mentally unwell, folks, last night. Something you also know about Joe Biden that the left is just figuring out. Oh, yeah.

Is that he is a sociopathic liar.

What are the most damaging political narratives in the world? Homework time, man.

Ones that change your pre existing notion of who someone is. The only reason Joe Biden's even at 30% approval is because about 20% of the country sees him as a useful idiot. But the other 15 see him as this avuncular grandfatherly, caring guy who's honest.

He's a freaking liar. And last night, he was exposed so badly, even CNN had to do a fact check on him. Do you know how bad you have to lie for Daniel Dale from CNN to have to just steal your lunch money?

I'm going to show you what I mean. Just blatant, blatant lies.

I'm going to take a quick break, but I'll tee this one up quick. He was endorsed by the border patrol. Where the did that come from? He just totally made that up.

Quick break. Here it is. What?

The jace case. This is mine. Why do I keep a Jace case in the office? Well, I keep one in the office and in my house because emergencies happen all the time.

Destructive political narratives. Biden's supposed to be this honest broker, this, this, this elderly statesman. He was totally exposed last night in front of people. I think, Evita, you and I, you brought this point up during the show.

You'd said to me last night, she says, you know, all the normies out there. We're not talking about us. We're. We're abnormal in a good way. We're abnormal in that we're involved every day in saving the country. And there are a lot of people out there, folks. It's not that they don't love the country. It's not. It's a, you know, they have stuff going on and they get distracted. They don't see everything like we do. We're hyper involved in politics. And I love you for it and respect you for it. A lot of these folks living these normal lives just saw these guys for the first time. Don't laugh. What she said was right. She's like, you know how many eyes were open last night? The guy's a freaking liar. Play this clip with a border patrol, one he randomly throws out. He was endorsed by the border patrol.

They absolutely did not endorse this guy at all. He just made that up. Check this out.

Donald Trump
We significantly increased the number of asylum officers, significantly. By the way, the border patrol endorsed me, endorsed my position. In addition to that, we find ourselves in a situation where, when he was president, he was taken separately.

That tweet on the screen is real, to be clear, at border Patrol union, to be clear, we have never and never will endorse Joe Biden. He just.

Dan, why did he say it? Because he's a liar.

I mean, I don't know how many videos we have to play of this guy bullshitting you. I beat up corn pop, got arrested going to see Mandela, was raised in the black community, the polish community, the puerto rican community, the jewish community.

I was a trucker, had oil slicks on my window.

I played lacrosse and was a. Was a letterman, was a state scoring champion. You understand nothing this guy tells you is real.

Plagiarized the campaign speech. Said he was the top guy in his class in law school, had three scholarships, what, 75 degrees, what? Doesn't matter. He's lying. He makes this stuff up. None of it is true.

Endorsed by the border patrol. Are you insane?

You know how much of a canoe you have to be for the border patrol during, during the actual debate to put out a tweet? To be clear, we have never and never will endorse Joe Biden.

And then he just was randomly throwing shit out there. It's like he was just making stuff up. We have a thousand trillionaires in the country. Now, my team did a great job with the live fact checking last night. That's why we did that, because I knew CNN wasn't going to do it, so my crew did it. Key, you did a fact check live last night. How many trillionaires are in the world? Was it like 150?

Oh, minus. Oh, it was zero, so there are no trouble. Good to know. I was confused. I was confused.

Here's Biden last night. He was trying to make the case that you evil rich people need to pay more taxes. What do you say? At one point, their tax rate is 1% and he said, all you evil trillionaires, there actually are none. Who the hell? Again, all Trump needed to go. I don't know. I don't even know what this guy's talking about. Watch this.

Donald Trump
Number two, you got $2 trillion tax cut benefit the very wealthy.

What I'm going to do is fix the tax system. For example, we have 1000 trillionaires in America. I mean, billionaires in America and anyone.

Dan Bongino
On to mix up millions and billions. Folks, what is it? What's option c? Either he's a moron or his brain doesn't work. Can you tell me what option c is? Well, there is not. Maybe both. Maybe he's a moron whose brain doesn't work. Fair enough. Okay, what's option d? There isn't one. Option D is all the above. Okay, so an option d two, we get it.

Did the line last night, the nothing. This guy is. Here we go. No individual escape the status of trillionaire. He can't. It's not one mix up.

I'm trying to be somewhat objective. If he just did that one thing, you'd be like, okay, trillionaire, whatever he did, the Austin powers $1 million. Okay, whatever.

The next sentence he mixes up millions and billions.

Folks, by the way, I am so tired of Biden's bullshit about the rich and taxes. Listen, you want to tax the rich more? Okay, just be honest about it. Don't be a scumbag and a liar and say, all these evil rich people, they don't pay enough in taxes. They pay 1%. For the thousandth time, here are the actual numbers from the government, from the Wall Street Journal piece. The top 1% he keeps talking about. You want to hate them, hate them. Man, it ain't my business. I don't live my life envious of others. I've been poor, I've been middle class, and I've been doing okay. I don't live my life worried about other people. Just be honest. The average tax rate of the top 1% is 25.9%. Stop bullshitting people.

The top one, 0.1%, their top, there's, it's the same rate, 25.7, effectively the same rate. Just stop lying.

Thank you for the chart. Who pays most of the taxes? Look, I mean, you interested in numbers or bullshit?

You want to tax the rich more? Fine. Say, I don't think a 25% rate is enough. They should pay 40. I think it's stupid. I think you're going to crush the economy. But stop lying, you bullshit artist.

Nothing he tells you is true.

How bad does it have to be when this happens on CNN? Daniel Dale, who is one of the most biased, quote, fact checkers, that is, opinion journalists in the business.

They had to run this segment after the show where they just again eviscerate this guy's credibility. Watch this.

Daniel Dale
Some of them. He said he's the only president in a while who didn't have any troops dying anywhere in the world. Troops have, of course, died on his watch. He said he's put in a $15 per shot cap on insulin. In Medicare, it's a $35 a month cap. He said it's a $200 cap on overall drug spending. In Medicare, it's $2,000 a year. He said the border now has fewer crossings than when Trump was in office. That's generally not true, he said, or at least strongly suggested unemployment was at 15% when he took office. It was actually 6.4. He said Trump wants to get rid of Social Security. Trump doesn't. He said billionaires pay 8.2% in taxes. It's much higher. He said Trump told Americans to inject bleach amid Covid. We know Trump made foolish comments about scientists studying disinfectant injection, but didn't frame it as advice to people. And Biden said the Border Patrol endorsed him. No, its union supported the border bill. He'd supported. Never endorsed him himself.

Dan Bongino
My team's hilarious. We're just joking. It's all a family here. And I love my guys and Evita and everyone.

Our expectations for the content are so high, folks, that I'm, they laugh at me because I, we did so well last night. Today Justin's like, look at this rumble. Thank you. With a top stream.

Oh, man. Thank you. Rumble. We appreciate we're still the top stream. But what happens now? Justin's like, dude, you're, you're, I can't please you. The next week, you'll be complaining. Every show's not 150,000, McDavid, this show. So why are we even here? Why? We really like the number one stream in the world? Like, why are we even? What are we doing? He's like, we can't. I can't help you anymore. I'm sorry. Right key every time. We don't have 150,000 every day. This is no point.

I love you guys so much. Number one stream in the world, again, thank you, Chris.

Thank you. You guys are awesome. Let's get back to that of that stuff. Hey, here was another one last night.

Pre existing narratives. Biden is supposed to be what? All right, let me make this simpler for you. What is Biden portrayed Trump to be? Ok.

He wants the left to believe a pre existing narrative on the debate. He wants the left to believe that Trump is a child. He's a whiner. How many times did Trump say whiner last night? Oh, my gosh. At least, what, 20 times?

Well, what happened last night? Donald Trump was the presidential guy. Chest out, you know, chin up, speaking in a presidential manner, command of the issues. Impressive.

It got a little weird at the end of the show when this golf handicap thing happened. Forget the exchange for a second. I want you to listen to the end where I, again, I think this is one of those moments. I don't think it's the sound bite of the night. I still think it's the, I don't know what he just said, but this at the end where he has to show the audience that it's Biden, who's the child here, and he just exposes this freaking phony for everything he is. Check this out.

Donald Trump
Just take a look at what he says he is and take a look at what he is. Look, I'd be happy to have a driving contest with him. I got my handicap, which when I was vice president, down to a six.

And by the way, I told you before, I'm happy to play golf. Carry your own bag.

Think you can do it?

Dan Bongino
That's the biggest lie, that he's a six handicap of all.

Donald Trump
I was an eight handicap.

Eight, never. But I have. You know how many I've seen you swing?

Dan Bongino
I know you swing.

President Trump, we're going to, let's not act like children.

Donald Trump, you know, mister President.

Donald Trump, I don't know if you listen or not. You guys busy? Just gonna listen to this, you know, show forward. But if you do see this part, I tell you, man, I appreciate you doing that.

You showed the entire world that the real child in this thing is this narcissistic, sociopathic, daughter showering kids sniffing sociopathic loser. Did I say sociopathic? Twice sociopathic. I'll tell you a third time, I am so glad you did that. Again. Evita and I were looking at each other. It's like, yes, I tried not to talk too much during the debate last night. And, you know, I appreciate you guys all tuning in. We're kind of learning too, how to do these live shows was totally unplanned. So, but really, we were looking at each other the whole night like, man, this is, there was, I can tell you that I don't think there was a single moment last night. And this may be the downside. I don't think there's a single moment the Biden team can point to to claim a win. Well, why would that be a downside? Well, if you watch the beginning of the show, folks, it was such complete annihilation. I'm really afraid now, afraid that Hillary Clinton's going to be the nominee.

I said it a couple of weeks ago. It's but one, one quick thing on this before I get to the demi, this is now you're going to see why things are so bad. I'm going to show you four clips here of the Democrat Mediaev, digital cable, all losing their minds at how bad of a performance this was. Keep this in mind and spread this to your friends because a lot of people out there, oh, it's over. Biden's out.

Couple of things.

Number one, it's going to be Biden's choice. They can't arrest them and pull him out of the White House. Ok, forget it. It's his choice. And Doctor Jill, whatever she calls herself, is not going to let that happen.

They're not.

It may happen, but it's still got to get worse. If he falls or something, then I think it'll be over. I think it's a 51% chance. But second, this is what you're not hearing about.

I ran for office. Who cares? The point is, I know a lot about campaign financing because I ran for federal office three times. The federal FEC paperwork is basically the same, folks. It's not easy to transfer all of that money into a different account for a different candidate. This will all have to be done by PACs. I'm not telling you it's impossible. I'm not telling you Democrats aren't finding ways to figure it out. I'm just saying, if you think, like, it's as easy as a quick dipsy do, flip a roo, Biden's got to forfeit his delegates. I'm telling you, it's not.

Is it bad enough yet for him to leave?

I'm not sure.

The news cycle is going to change next week and a lot of people are going to forget about this, enjoy it today, but I'm telling you, it's a holiday week. Next week, Biden's going to be like, oh, everybody forgot.

The left wing media might not let him know this is the young turds. If you ever listen to these guys, I mean, you're not going to meet a bigger group of left wing nut bags. And these guys, here's Kenk from, from the young turds last night, basically saying, man, this thing is over. We better make a call quick. Again, it's not me saying it, it's them saying it. Take a look.

Cenk Uygur
And the whole time the split screen is killing Biden.

Dan Bongino
Yep.

Cenk Uygur
Because he's got his mouth open. He looks confused, doesn't know where he is. He's lost his train of thought at least twice in, like, disastrous shape. Those are gonna be played a billion times in viral video after viral video.

This is an epic disaster.

I see people online saying, well, okay, that answer wasn't so bad. No, it doesn't. Any particular answer doesn't matter at all. This thing is over.

He looks like he's barely surviving. I don't mean the debate, I mean life. And so there's no person that has a single brain cell left in their head who thinks that Joe Biden is the best candidate to take on Donald Trump? You would have to be even crazier than Donald Trump to think that this thing is over. Over. I'll guarantee you this. I would bet any, show me a democratic politician, and I will bet them any amount of money that Joe Biden's going to lose this election. If he's the candidate, it's a guaranteed loss.

Dan Bongino
I mean, how much more, how much worse can it get? You've got this left wing guy, Kank, who, I mean, anything left wing, he loves. And Kank's like, it's not just like he didn't survive the debate. It's like, how is he surviving life? That's not me saying it.

I've almost been easy on Biden compared to these guys, folks. They're very popular in the digital space, though. It's not a joke. You can look it up. They've got a big following. The Sandinistas, the Bernie Sanders people. The commies love this guy. I mean, what can you. This is what I'm worried about.

We needed a little bit of a push, and Biden's got, you know, an even kind of matchup to keep this guy in the race and that there's nothing.

They've got nothing. Everybody hates him after today.

Here's Chuck Todd. So I've covered digital. I picked these for a reason. There's your digital space. The Young Turks, one of the most popular podcasts out there on the left, right.

Here's Chuck Todd. Chuck Todd's broadcast media, NBC. You think, like, maybe Chuck Todd, you know, the Muskrat. You think Chuck Todd would be like, all right, it wasn't that bad.

Well, I don't think so. Here, listen to Chuck Todd.

Chuck Todd
One of the things was, would either candidate look like the caricature that the other campaign has been trying to paint of him? And at the end of the day, Joe Biden looks like the caricature that that conservative media has been painting. And there were no clips tonight. Right? This was, you saw it before your eyes. Look, I don't want to just tell you what I think here, Tom. I've been talking to a lot of leaders in the democratic party, electeds, coalition leaders. There's a full on panic about this performance.

Not like, oh, this is recoverable. It is more of a, okay, he's got to step aside. There's a lot of that chatter.

This is about as bad of a performance in order to, that Biden could have delivered if his goal was to try to sort of calm the waters among Democrats.

Dan Bongino
I mean, look, folks, I'm serious when I tell you this guy and Justin, Evita and I, we're on all day on social media. X truth all day. That's my job. It's. I actually like to do, but that's my job.

I am serious again when I tell you this. Vid, if you think I'm crazy tough. The criticism has been worse from the left. The right's really just been celebrating Donald Trump's victory. They're like, oh, look at that loser. Even. But the left is like, he's got to go. He can barely survive life. Worst thing I've ever seen. Am I crazy?

Pan total vet is sending me clips this morning. Look at this. Look at that. I. These are all from her. I didn't even get all of them in.

So digital. He sucks liberal radio. Well, it really isn't a liberal radio, but the one station they have, I guarantee you they're going to be like, he sucks.

Here, broadcast, Chuck. That he sucks. Here's CNN. They hosted the debate last night. So you figure probably close to 10 million people stayed for a little bit of the post coverage. I'm going to guess ten, 5 million people on CNN, whatever. They probably had a big audience last night. Here's CNN. Van Jones, you got to meet a bigger lefty than this guy. Here's Van Jones. Like, listen, man, this was just painful, not disastrous painful. Check this out.

Daniel Dale
There is no two ways about it. That was not a good debate for Joe Biden, Ben.

Dan Bongino
That was painful. I love Joe Biden. I work for Joe Biden.

He didn't do well at all.

He did not do well at all.

Folks. Look at their faces, man. And just so we're clear, I wore today's shirt for a reason. The cutesy time is over.

I want you to know right now, again, pardon the language, but I don't give a shit about their feelings.

Are you kidding? After what you clowns did to us?

Put the president in a courtroom in New York in a fake trial with a Democrat judge and a communist DA while the judge's daughter's making money off this, making up fake charges for these January 6 folks on obstruction to put a bunch of people in the gulag, attacking successful businesses in the country, bullshit regulations, putting a car business out of business, getting us involved in foreign wars because you're too stupid to shut your mouth.

Donald Trump
No.

Dan Bongino
If Russia does a small invasion. Remember when Biden said that?

I don't feel bad for these people. One bit. Anyone in the chat? Not me. I don't give a shit.

You deserve every single thing you're getting.

But it's amazing today if you go to social media that you'll notice it's the liberals beating up their own guy.

We warned you idiots. If you were watching the Dan bongino show, you would have known your guy was mentally compromised. Instead, you listen to the dumb ass left wing media telling you, oh, no, that's just all cheap fakes, you dumb shits. If you were listening to us, none of this would have been a shocker. Van, this is painful.

Here's the worst one of the night. This is CNN'S John Kingdom. I actually met this guy before when I was running for office.

Again, a guy who's not known for emotional outbursts. Here he is just eviscerating Biden's performance. There was not a single host on CNN defending this guy last night. Check this out.

John King
Right now as we speak, there is a deep, a wide and a very aggressive panic in the democratic party. It started minutes into the debate and it continues right now. It involves party strategists, it involves elected officials, it involves fundraisers. And they are having conversations about the president's performance, which they think was dismal, which they think will hurt other people down the party in the ticket. And they're having conversations about what they should do about it. Some of those conversations include should we go to the White House and ask the president to step aside.

Other of the conversations are about should prominent democrats go public.

Dan Bongino
Folks, that clip is the one I left you with. Why? Because it's important. There's a takeaway. You know what it is?

It's not about Biden anymore.

They're very concerned now about down ticket races. If nobody shows up to vote for Biden, then, folks, if you don't show up to vote, then you're not going to vote for the congressman and you're not going to vote for the senator either. Do you see what John King is saying?

When people suffer real material losses and their own skin, see, I got it, too. When their own skin is in the game, lobbyists who've bought off congressman and Democrat side, congressmen who don't want to lose and senators who definitely don't want to lose. Now, their skins in the game last night was so apocalyptically bad, they're terrified that they're going to lose their race because Biden's at the top.

That's why I say to you, don't get antsy. But there's probably a 51% chance at this point. He's not the nominee. Listen to the speech later in North Carolina and you'll see. And one more thing. I just want to get out there again. It's not going to be Michelle Obama. Stop wasting time on that. I've already told you why I worked there in that White House. She hates politics. It's, forget it. It's not going to be her.

If it's going to be anyone, it's going to be a woman. I think Hillary Clinton's at the top of their list. I think Gretchen Whitmer's at the top of their list. But they got to figure out the Kamala Harris problem first. There is no way Kamala Harris is stepping aside as the first female black vice president. There is no way. She is pissed off. Everybody's talking about it. She's pissed today that nobody wants her.

Just watch the shit show unfold, man. From the bottom of my heart and from my team. Thank you so much. You guys and ladies are amazing. I so deeply appreciate it. We blew up the Internet.
