  Speaker 1: We got a question for our American mamas. What has
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: surprised you the most about this year's election? Well, let's
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: ask our American mamas.
• 0:09
  Speaker 2: Alma Mama and joining us now our American mama's Terry
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: Nutteville and Kimberly Virlison.
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: It's kind of been a wild election season, yes, you'd say,
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: very yeah, very all right, So what is it that
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: you think is the most surprising thing so far?
• 0:36
  Speaker 3: You know, I've been thinking about this all day, and
• 0:39
  Speaker 3: I feel like these last four years were basically necessary.
• 0:42
  Speaker 3: We needed to experience a kind of famine in order
• 0:45
  Speaker 3: to remember the prosperity and excitement of twenty sixteen.
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: Wait wait, wait, you're saying the last four years famine necessary.
• 0:52
  Speaker 3: I think they were necessary. There's a purpose for it.
• 0:56
  Speaker 3: I've seen an awakening of this conservative movement with young
• 0:59
  Speaker 3: adults especially, that's very inclusive, very diverse, and we're unified.
• 1:04
  Speaker 3: We're unified group willing to fight for the country. I
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: think the old Republican Party of twenty twenty is dead,
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: it's gone. I think we're a party of common sense,
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: and we have no tolerance for even our own Republican
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: elected officials lacking common sense. We're holding everyone accountable. So
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: no matter the election outcome tonight, I actually feel hope
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: with the unity we're experiencing now, and I feel hopeful
• 1:29
  Speaker 3: about our future.
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: And that's surprised you about this a little.
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: This just surprised me because I didn't think it was necessary,
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: because I feel like it's been so divisive.
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: It's been an awful four years.
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: It's been horrible, but been hell. But in the midst
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: of the hell, we have seen so much unity that
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: has shocked me.
• 1:46
  Speaker 4: Shocked me.
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah, interesting, and Terry, you feel the same way.
• 1:49
  Speaker 4: You know. Oh, but you know what has really surprised me.
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: What's that?
• 1:55
  Speaker 4: So four years ago we weren't really we were kind
• 1:58
  Speaker 4: of in the shadow saying we're going to vote for Trump.
• 2:01
  Speaker 4: We were kind of whispering. Yes, we told our kids
• 2:04
  Speaker 4: not to have their don't wear Magazine bad hat to college.
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 2:08
  Speaker 4: Let me tell you what's changed the most. And this
• 2:10
  Speaker 4: has surprised me. Not only are people not not only
• 2:14
  Speaker 4: are people not afraid to wear the MAGA hat or
• 2:18
  Speaker 4: to vote for or to say they're voting for Donald Trump.
• 2:20
  Speaker 4: They're proud they're out there. Different groups Black, White, Latino, Asian,
• 2:28
  Speaker 4: the college kids are coming home. It truly has been
• 2:31
  Speaker 4: such a surprise. But you know what group has surprised
• 2:33
  Speaker 4: me the most. The Amish. Y'all saw this. They are
• 2:37
  Speaker 4: coming out in force, they are coming in their buggies,
• 2:40
  Speaker 4: and they're making it their mission. It's incredible to me.
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: You've got video of first of all, video of Amish.
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: I mean that seems like we're violating something there. But anyway,
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: you have video of the Amish and their horse and
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: buggies with massive trump binners hanging off the back of
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: the horse and buggies as they're on their way to
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: the polling places today.
• 2:58
  Speaker 4: What do you make of that? They see the importance
• 3:01
  Speaker 4: of it for sure. Somehow they're getting the information even
• 3:03
  Speaker 4: though they're supposed to supposedly not have any kind of
• 3:07
  Speaker 4: uh communications via TV phone, But they're getting They're getting
• 3:11
  Speaker 4: the word somehow. So I've been very surprised and elated
• 3:15
  Speaker 4: by that. But seeing all of the celebrities on the left,
• 3:19
  Speaker 4: the kinds of celebrities that are coming out endorsing Kamala
• 3:22
  Speaker 4: versus the ones that are coming out Megan Kelly, you know, Tucker,
• 3:26
  Speaker 4: the Veke, all of them coming out for It's just
• 3:29
  Speaker 4: one of those things that I feel excited about. You know,
• 3:32
  Speaker 4: it's been very surprising that no one's afraid to say
• 3:34
  Speaker 4: who they're voting for on either side. It's great. That's
• 3:37
  Speaker 4: what we wanted the last time. We want all of
• 3:39
  Speaker 4: our people to feel like they can vote forever they
• 3:40
  Speaker 4: want to vote for, be proud of that vote, and
• 3:43
  Speaker 4: move forward and then accept however it goes. That's what
• 3:46
  Speaker 4: we've done since we've you know, since the beginning of
• 3:49
  Speaker 4: our time voting for candidates.
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: So one of the other things that's kind of surprised.
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: You were talking about the people that have come out
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: for Donald Trump. There were people that were publicly against
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: Donald Trump in twenty sixteen and twenty.
• 4:03
  Speaker 4: And another shocker, I'm I'm thinking of an actor. Michael Rappaport, Yes,
• 4:07
  Speaker 4: oh yeah, yes, miche Michael Moore, Yeah, so I don't
• 4:11
  Speaker 4: know about him.
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: Michael moorey, yes, when you listen to him.
• 4:14
  Speaker 4: He hates Trump, he hates.
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: Strung, he hates Trump.
• 4:16
  Speaker 4: Well that's another surprise. You got the never trumpers who
• 4:19
  Speaker 4: are now voting.
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: Bill Maher, I think Bill Maher, I bet you he did.
• 4:23
  Speaker 4: There's no bet you no. But we don't need him.
• 4:29
  Speaker 4: I mean, you see what's happening.
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: He's in California. It's not gonna jump. I mean, I'd
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: love for Trump to win California.
• 4:34
  Speaker 4: It's not gonna happen. I'll tell you, and I've said this.
• 4:36
  Speaker 4: The MVP is Elon Musk. He's allowed everyone to see
• 4:40
  Speaker 4: both sides of the story. Last time, there's a lot
• 4:42
  Speaker 4: of shadow banding, there's a lot of canceling. So the
• 4:45
  Speaker 4: difference maker, the one that has changed a lot of
• 4:47
  Speaker 4: minds is Elon Musk allowing the truth to be told.
• 4:50
  Speaker 4: You can believe whatever side you want, but at least
• 4:52
  Speaker 4: it's out there for you to judge for yourself.
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: At least people are able to say that's right in
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: a way that they haven't been able to see before.
• 4:58
  Speaker 4: There's been a lot of happy surprises.
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: And how critical was it that Elon Musk bought Twitter?
• 5:04
  Speaker 4: That that was everything crucial? Right, that was absolutely everything?
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: I think I think that is. That is great speech. Yes,
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: Russell Brand becoming a Christian? Uh Tolsie Gabbard now voting
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: for to think about it? So many Bobby Kennedy Jr.
• 5:20
  Speaker 4: Oh yeah, like y'all.
• 5:22
  Speaker 5: Kennedy campaigning for a Trump believable. I would have thought
• 5:26
  Speaker 5: that that was going to happen, and then picking jd Vance.
• 5:29
  Speaker 5: You know, that surprised a lot of people that was
• 5:31
  Speaker 5: the best decision, that he thought that was.
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: A good one. I wasn't as surprised by that as
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: as a lot of these. Hey, if you like descar
