26 Rallies, 7 Days, One Mission—Trump Goes All-In to Drive GOP Turnout · The 47 Morning Update with Ben Ferguson

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: I'm asking you to do one thing because for whatever reason,
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: we get a lot more votes when I'm on the ballot.
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: They're the ones that told me that I didn't know.
• 0:09
  Speaker 2: What the hell do I know?
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: But now I want you to pretend I'm on the
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: ballot because if you go out and vote like you
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: did in the presidentials where we won by so much.
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: If you go out and if you all vote, we
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: win in the landslide. We win everything.
• 0:23
  Speaker 3: You're listening to the 47 Morning Update with Ben Ferguson.
• 0:27
  Speaker 4: Good Wednesday morning. Nice to have you with us on
• 0:29
  Speaker 4: the 47 Morning Update. And we've got one big story
• 0:32
  Speaker 4: for you, but it involves a lot. The president barnstorming
• 0:36
  Speaker 4: the country, fighting for Republicans all over the place. So
• 0:41
  Speaker 4: where are the races that he's getting involved? What states
• 0:44
  Speaker 4: are at play? And what does it mean as we're
• 0:46
  Speaker 4: less than a week away from Election Day? We break
• 0:50
  Speaker 4: it all down for you. Before we get to that,
• 0:52
  Speaker 4: the midterm elections are heating up and congressional control in
• 0:55
  Speaker 4: President Trump's agenda.
• 0:56
  Speaker 3: Hang in the balance.
• 0:57
  Speaker 4: Every headline has the potential to shift the odds. On
• 1:00
  Speaker 4: Cal State, you can trade major primaries, election outcomes, and
• 1:04
  Speaker 4: the biggest political storylines as they happen. A great example
• 1:09
  Speaker 4: of this is the race in the Democratic presidential nominee. Yeah,
• 1:13
  Speaker 4: it's up there right now. Also, how many Senate seats
• 1:16
  Speaker 4: will Democrats hold after the midterms? Above 52 is trading
• 1:21
  Speaker 4: at 36%. 52 at 18 percent. Which party will win
• 1:26
  Speaker 4: the U.S. Senate? Well, right now it has Democrats at
• 1:29
  Speaker 4: 62 percent, Republicans at 38. How about the Michigan Senate winner?
• 1:34
  Speaker 4: El-Said is at 69 percent, Mike Rogers at 31, meaning
• 1:38
  Speaker 4: if you put $ 100 on Mike Rogers and he wins,
• 1:41
  Speaker 4: you get $ 292 in change back. That is why I
• 1:46
  Speaker 4: love Couchy. Now, there's a big Texas event as well.
• 1:50
  Speaker 4: Will Kim Paxton defeat Tallarico? Paxton's currently trading at 50%,
• 1:54
  Speaker 4: meaning a $ 100 trade would pay out $ 93 if he
• 1:57
  Speaker 4: beats Tallarico. Now, on Couchy, you're trading against peers in
• 2:01
  Speaker 4: a live market, meaning there's no house. And as the
• 2:04
  Speaker 4: probability changes, you can buy in and out of your position.
• 2:08
  Speaker 4: So download the Kalshi app and use code BEN to
• 2:12
  Speaker 4: get $ 20 when you trade 20. K-A-L-S-H-I. Kalshi. Trade on anything.
• 2:18
  Speaker 5: 18 plus only. Restrictions and eligibility requirements apply. Event contract
• 2:21
  Speaker 5: trading involves risk and may not be suitable for all investors.

• 2:29
  Speaker 4: It's the 47 morning update, and it starts right now.
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: Story number one.
• 2:34
  Speaker 4: We are exactly one week away from one of the
• 2:37
  Speaker 4: most consequential midterm elections in recent American history. We have
• 2:42
  Speaker 4: radicals like Assam Piker saying that America is a terrorist nation.
• 2:46
  Speaker 4: Ilham Omar, who is now saying that America and the
• 2:50
  Speaker 4: Republican Party specifically is a protector of pedophiles. That is
• 2:55
  Speaker 4: their closing argument. President Trump, he's doing something that is
• 2:59
  Speaker 4: rarely seen from a sitting president during a midterm election.
• 3:03
  Speaker 4: He is practically living on the campaign trail. State after state,
• 3:08
  Speaker 4: rally after rally, and now night after night. From Texas
• 3:11
  Speaker 4: to Mississippi, from Michigan to Iowa, from Florida to Ohio.
• 3:16
  Speaker 4: What are we seeing? Trump traveling across America. With one
• 3:21
  Speaker 4: overriding objective, getting Republicans who voted for him for president
• 3:25
  Speaker 4: to show up at the polls on November the 3rd.
• 3:29
  Speaker 4: And the president has been delivering a message that is
• 3:31
  Speaker 4: a simple one, but it's important. Pretend I'm on the ballot. Now,
• 3:36
  Speaker 4: the president's also going after the radical left, saying this
• 3:40
  Speaker 4: in Corpus Christi about James Tallarico.
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: So I'm just going to ask you to take a
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: look at this little video real quick, because then I
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: don't have to talk about this guy anymore. Go ahead, please.
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: Did they teach you in Sunday school that Jesus Christ
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: himself died? was a radical feminist. The American flag is
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: such a complicated symbol for most of us. God is
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: both masculine and feminine and everything in between. God is non-binary.
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: You can't call yourself a Christian and reject the stranger
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: seeking asylum at our southern border. I want to acknowledge
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: that our trans community needs abortion care too. There are
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: many more than two biological sexes. In fact, there are six.
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: For me, prophetic voices like Jesus have helped me reckon
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: with my own whiteness. Our southern border should be like
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: our front porch. There should be a giant welcome mat
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: out front.
• 4:37
  Speaker 5: Something that you love.
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: I love the trans children. To the trans kids watching
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: at home, I just want to say I love you.
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: What would.
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: Jesus do if he visited the Texas legislature? I think
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: he would tell us, blessed are the trans children. Who's
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: your favorite drag queen in Texas? Oh my gosh, probably
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: Alyssa Edwards. What if we ran our world like we
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: run a kindergarten classroom? Every one of our neighbors with
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: a uterus just became the property of the state. God
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: is not a Christian. I always think of myself as
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: a Christian who hates Christianity.
• 5:17
  Speaker 4: Yeah, prison.
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: Is violence.
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: It's rich to me that defund the police is considered
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: off limits. We all know that Texas has been a
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: leader in oil and gas, but in many ways that's
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: like being a leader in cassette tapes. It is now
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: existential that we try to reduce our meat consumption. Our
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: campaign has officially become a non-meat campaign.
• 5:39
  Speaker 5: So the assault weapon's still on the table? Absolutely.
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: All these ideologies stem from this Christofascism movement. We are
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: trying to fundamentally change our politics.
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: And i think we're doing better than at any time
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: 22.2 trillion dollars is being invested in our country that's
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: more than ever that's more than any country has ever
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: had invested and it's never been anything But the only
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: man standing between Texas and this raging lunatic is a
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: man named President Donald J. Trump. Thank you. And I
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: need the help of Ken Paxton in the U.S. Senate.
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: I need a little help, please. I need help. He's
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: the perfect guy. We have fought so many battles. We
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: fought the border battle together. We won. We fought so
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: many different battles. The voter fraud, all of that terrible
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: voter fraud. Be careful of the voter fraud. Be careful. Well,
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: you have Mays and you have your U.S. attorney and
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: you have a couple of people here, but we're going
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: to watch that voter fraud. Congratulations on your big victory too, Mays. Great,
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: great job. But in this election, I'm asking you to
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: do one thing, because for whatever reason, we get a
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: lot more votes when I'm on the ballot. They're the
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: ones that told me that. I didn't know.
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: What the hell do I know?
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: We get 49.2% more votes when I'm on the ballot
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: and we always win. But now I want you to
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: pretend I'm on the ballot because if you go out
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: and vote like you did in the presidentials where we
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: won by so much, by 18 or 19 points, can
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: you imagine in Texas? All three times, records.
• 7:34
  Speaker 5: If you go out And if you all.
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: Vote, we win in the landslide. We win everything. And
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: not only Ken Paxton, but all these great congresspeople, a
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: couple of them, a couple of them have close races.
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: Doc Ronnie's up by about 57 points, but we don't
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: worry about him. Don't worry about Doc Ronnie. You don't
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: have to vote for him. No, go out and vote.
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: We don't want any surprises, Ronnie. Sir, you shouldn't have
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: said that. Nobody showed up. But early voting is underway
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: and ends Friday, October 30th. And there's one week left
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: until Election Day. And that's going to be an exciting
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: evening because I think we're doing great. They say these
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: rallies have really energized. You know, I've done 26 of them.
• 8:17
  Speaker 4: You think about what the president just said there, 26
• 8:20
  Speaker 4: rallies for an 80 year old. It's truly incredible. And
• 8:24
  Speaker 4: what does he do at the end of each one
• 8:26
  Speaker 4: of these rallies? He does his Trump famous dance. And
• 8:29
  Speaker 4: he also made it very clear that he says we
• 8:31
  Speaker 4: are in the golden age of America right now. Yes,
• 8:34
  Speaker 4: gas prices are higher than we want, but look at everything.
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: Less than two years ago, the radical left Democrats handed
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: us the dark age of America. But we quickly turned
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: it into the golden age of America. That's where we
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: are right now. And no other president has ever accomplished
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: so much in such a short period of time. And
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: I did it because of you. Without you, it would
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: have not been. You're the people that built our country.
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: We've achieved the largest drop in violent crime ever recorded
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: with a murder rate at the lowest level in 125 years.
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: Not since 1990. And it much less than two years
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: because we're much less than two years. We secured commitments,
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: as I said, for twenty two point two trillion dollars
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: with a T trillion dollars of new investments into the United.
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: The greatest amount of money ever invested to any country
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: in the history of the world by far.
• 9:39
  Speaker 4: You listen to the closing argument there and the president
• 9:41
  Speaker 4: is reminding voters, this is what you voted for. This
• 9:44
  Speaker 4: is what you're going to get from me. And he
• 9:47
  Speaker 4: also talked about the promise, he said, I would deliver
• 9:50
  Speaker 4: justice for Jocelyn Nungary. Here is what he had to
• 9:54
  Speaker 4: say about that, reminding people about safety and securing the border.
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: I promised Alexis that I... would deliver justice for Jocelyn.
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: And since I took office, we've rounded up, arrested and
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: deported thousands of Tren de Aragua gang members from Texas
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: and all across the country. And we've obliterated their gang
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: hideouts and terrorists. compounds and unleashed our military to eliminate
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: their leaders, and they've been eliminated. And in Jocelyn's honor,
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: I officially renamed one of our nation's most beautiful wildlife
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: preserves near Houston to the Jocelyn Nungari National Wildlife Refuge,
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: and it's beautiful.
• 10:43
  Speaker 4: The president also talked about foreign policy and he brought
• 10:47
  Speaker 4: on stage Secretary of State Marco Rubio in Corpus Christi
• 10:51
  Speaker 4: to talk about, well, Cuba and even had a joke
• 10:54
  Speaker 4: about dropping off Marco in Cuba. Take a listen.
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: He's done a great job. You know, we'll drop him
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: off and we're going to drop Marco off in Cuba.
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: Where's Marco? Come here. Come here, Marco. Marco, come up.
• 11:17
  Speaker 3: Come on.
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: Thank you.
• 11:25
  Speaker 4: It's an honor to work for the greatest country in
• 11:27
  Speaker 4: the world, for the greatest president in the history of
• 11:29
  Speaker 4: the United States of America. We love you, Texas.
• 11:32
  Speaker 3: Thank you.
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: He's doing a great job. I said the other day
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: on the way back from Iran, we're going to drop
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: him off in Cuba. He'll settle that one in about
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: 15 minutes. We're going to parachute him in, just drop
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: him and he'll figure it out.
• 11:46
  Speaker 4: Just drop him off, parachute him in. The president of
• 11:48
  Speaker 4: the United States of America yet again making a clear
• 11:51
  Speaker 4: foreign policy and making the world a safer place is
• 11:54
  Speaker 4: also an important part of the closing arguments. So there
• 11:57
  Speaker 4: you have it. The president's not done yet on the
• 11:59
  Speaker 4: campaign trail. The crazy part is he's just getting started.
• 12:03
  Speaker 4: And it's very clear now that the president wants to
• 12:05
  Speaker 4: make this election about national security, about foreign policy, about
• 12:10
  Speaker 4: what is happening, getting rid of the gangs in this
• 12:12
  Speaker 4: country and those that have come across the border illegally.
• 12:16
  Speaker 4: That is the president's argument in saying we're in the
• 12:18
  Speaker 4: greatest time in American history economically for your family as well.
• 12:23
  Speaker 4: Never forget, as he puts it, no tax on tips,
• 12:25
  Speaker 4: no tax on overtime. And the other thing, People are
• 12:29
  Speaker 4: making more money now than at any other point in
• 12:31
  Speaker 4: the history of this country. That is the president's very
• 12:34
  Speaker 4: clear closing argument.
