It's the Economy, Stupid · David Pollack Primetime

  Speaker 1: TRUMP HAS WANTED THIS WAR OVER SINCE DAY ONE. WELL,
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: WE'RE A LITTLE BIT PAST DAY ONE AT THIS POINT,
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: BUT THERE'S SOME GOOD NEWS BECAUSE THIS WEEKEND, PRESIDENT TRUMP NEGOTIATORS, WELL,
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: HE SAT DOWN WITH PUTIN IN MOSCOW, ZELENSKYY AND KYIV,
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: PEACE MIGHT FINALLY BE AT HAND. AND THE SIDEWALKS OF
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: CALIFORNIA Well, they look like a third world country now
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: that thousands of illegal food carts and vendors are lining
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: the streets. And Democrats, well, they're not going to lift
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: a finger to stop it. More on that later. But first,
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: there's an old saying in American politics. It's the economy, stupid.
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: And the idea behind it is simple. People vote with
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: their wallets because the economy isn't some abstract thing on
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: a chart. It's the most personal thing there is. It's
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: the number at the bottom of your grocery receipt. It's
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: what it costs you to fill up your gas tank.
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: It's the rent check. In every single election, the economy, well,
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: it's the ground where the fight gets waged. And it's
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: a political weapon, especially for a challenger, because it appeals
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: to anyone anywhere unhappy about the price of anything. And
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: it's easy to just blame the person in charge, right?
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: So whether the facts support it or not, that's what
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: happens in every single election. And it's what they call
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: empirical evidence. Have you heard this? It's the evidence of
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: your own personal experience. Here's the thing. Personal experience is
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: what matters. It beats everything else. It beats what's on
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: the news. It beats what's being told to you by
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: any administration. It's how everything around you actually affects you, right?
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: It's whether it's factual or not. And that's what actually matters. Now,
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: we watched this deployed brilliantly early in this election season. Affordability, affordability, affordability.
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: Democrats talked about nothing but affordability. They hammered it over
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: and over. And now the socialists said, hey, I like
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: this argument, and they've gone all in, blaming the wealthy,
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: blaming the boomers, blaming Trump, blaming anybody, really, with a pulse,
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: and demanding that the government seize wealth and opportunity from
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: the people who earned it and hand it to the
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: people who didn't. That is the ultimate insurance policy for
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: personal failure. If you're a socialist, just blame everybody else
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: for whatever went wrong in your life. It's their fault,
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: and the government, they're going to take it back for us. Now, look,
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: I'm not going to pretend that everything is perfect. It isn't.
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: Prices are high. Affordability is real and legitimate for everybody.
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: If you go to the grocery store, trust me, you're
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: feeling it. If you go to the gas pump, you're
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: feeling it. If you try to buy a house, you're
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: feeling it. Yes, things are expensive for all of us.
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: And it feels like the dollar just doesn't go as
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: far as it used to. And it's true. But instead
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: of just blaming Trump for it because he's in charge,
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: let's actually look at the numbers and figure out who's responsible.
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: Let's start with inflation. Under Joe Biden, inflation exploded to 9%,
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: a 40-year high that touched or destroyed, basically, all the
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: savings of American families in this country. And under Donald Trump,
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: it's cooled dramatically off that peak. Now, is every single
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: price down? No, we've already talked about it. GROCERIES, SOME
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: ITEMS ARE CHEAPER, OTHERS, THINGS LIKE BEEF AND COFFEE, THEY'RE
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: STILL EXPENSIVE, BUT THEY ARE COMING DOWN, AND TRUMP IS
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: DOING THINGS TO FURTHER BRING DOWN THOSE PRICES, HISTORIC THINGS.
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: THEN THERE'S GAS. GAS HAS BEEN SITTING AROUND $ 4 A
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: GALLON RIGHT NOW, AND IT'S HIGH, AND IT'S WAY HIGHER
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: THAN MOST PEOPLE LIKE. IT'S HIGHER THAN TRUMP LIKES. THERE'S
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: NO ARGUMENT TO BE MADE THERE. BUT IT'S NOT A
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: TRUMP policy per se that's causing gas prices to be high.
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: Under Joe Biden, gas prices were high for no good reason,
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: just because he basically didn't want the U.S. producing energy.
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: There's a war going on in the Middle East right now.
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: That's why prices are high. Iran is doing this on purpose,
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: trying to choke off a fifth of the world's oil
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: in the Strait of Hormuz, a global shock half a
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: world away. And even with that war raging, the average
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: price of gas across Donald Trump's time in office has
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: still come down lower than it was under Joe Biden.
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: And we've seen this. When the Memorandum of Understanding was
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: signed between Iran and the United States, gas prices immediately
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: started falling. So you know they'll fall as soon as
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: this war is concluded. And the president is doing other
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: things historically in order to bring down the price of gas.
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: We have the historic Venezuela oil deal, reopening the Strait
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: of Hormuz, by the way, protecting it with American blood.
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: Everything we've laid out on this program that Trump has
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: done between Venezuela and Iran, he's doing it to lower prices.
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: And that's before you even get to what he's actually
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: put back in your pocket. Let's remember the one big,
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: beautiful bill. No tax on tips, no tax on overtime,
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: no tax on Social Security, the bigger child tax credit,
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: a real break for the seniors, average American families, largest
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: tax cuts for middle-class families in modern history. This matters.
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: You're keeping more of your own money. You're just not
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: being told about it. And yes, the gas pump still hurts.
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: But think about how much worse it would be if
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: some of this other economic relief wasn't put in place
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: by Trump. And this very week, the Trump administration moved
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: to fix a marriage penalty buried inside the federal child
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: care system so that a married mother who stays home
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: to raise her children can finally get the same help
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: Washington hands to everyone else. He's driven mortgage rates to
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: a four-year low. He's pulling manufacturing jobs back home. And
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: that's not a feeling. That is the record. So what
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: is the truth about the economy? The answer, the honest
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: answer here is that it depends on what you feel
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: and who you have been told to blame. Which brings me,
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: of all things, to a horse, a horse this week.
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: Ivanka Trump posted a video of her 15-year-old daughter riding
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: a horse down a beach at sunset. A Coldplay song
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: playing over top of it. A beautiful clip of a
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: kid on a summer vacation. But the internet, well, the
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: internet had to find a reason to melt down over it.
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: It must be nice. Let them eat cake moment. The
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: governor of California's own press office even fired off a
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: one-word reply, okay, over a screenshot of high gas prices.
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: So I guess a girl can't ride a horse on
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: a beach unless gas prices are low enough for Gavin Newsom,
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: or maybe Gavin Newsom was just reminding all of us
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: that gas is so expensive in his state thanks to
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: his taxes that it might be cheaper to just ride
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: a horse. Now, I'm not sure. We'll let Californians answer
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: that question. But that very same day, Kai Trump, she
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: posted a tour of her college apartment, right? Internet melts
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: down again. She has a normal, modest Miami apartment when
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: she's going to the University of Miami to play golf.
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: And she still got savaged as out of touch. Look.
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: I'm making you guys a little apartment tour.
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: So, come on.
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: All right, so we walk into the kitchen.
• 7:40
  Speaker 4: On my favorite part because I eat a lot.
• 7:42
  Speaker 3: But we're walking into the kitchen.
• 7:43
  Speaker 5: Sorry, I just got home.
• 7:45
  Speaker 4: But we got Aspen gondolas because I love skiing.
• 7:48
  Speaker 6: I love Aspen.
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: I actually hung up that myself.
• 7:51
  Speaker 6: Got a New York City painting. Emma hung that up.
• 7:53
  Speaker 7: Then we got my fireplace, which is like, I think,
• 7:58
  Speaker 7: the coolest part of this.
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: She's not living in Versailles. It's an apartment. Yeah, it's
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: a nice apartment. She's the granddaughter of the president of
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: the United States who's a billionaire. But give me a break.
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: What is she supposed to do? Live at the Howard Johnson?
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: I mean, I don't understand why people are losing their
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: mind over it. She lives in a decent apartment while
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: she goes to college and people are losing their mind
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: over it. The force video, her apartment video. Everybody's complaining. Oh,
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: look how nice they're living while everybody suffers. And do
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: you know who's complaining about suffering? The people dropping $ 1, 000
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: on an Olivia Rodrigo concert ticket that goes to pay
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: for abortion. $ 8 on a single cup of coffee at Starbucks.
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: $ 500 on lip fillers or $ 1, 500 on a tattoo. An
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: entire culture of people who will look you in the
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: eye and tell you all the things they can't afford. Groceries, gas, anything.
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: But they finance their lifestyle with whatever they want, and
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: yet they complain that Kai Trump or, you know, a
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: girl can't ride a horse on a beach.
• 9:04
  Speaker 6: Come on.
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: Like, spare me the outrage over a girl and a horse. Yes,
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: gas isn't cheap. We all want it to be cheaper.
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: But I promise you this. There is not one single
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: person that you'll ever be able to vote for who
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: is trying harder and going to do more to bring
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: down the cost of your life. Donald Trump has already
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: done it. And if you want the whole choice laid bare,
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: just look at how the two sides spent this Labor Day.
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: Donald Trump spent it celebrating a jobs report that beat
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: every expectation. talking about the American worker, about take-home pay,
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: about the dream of getting ahead. And the other side, well,
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: they spent it the way they always do, celebrating unions
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: and grievance and everything that is broken and a list
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: of everyone you're supposed to be furious at. One side
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: is selling you a future. The other side is selling
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: you the same tired talking person. that have delivered victories
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: for the Democrats and absolutely nothing for you. So don't
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: fall for the noise. Don't fall for the lies. Yes,
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: things can be better. Things can always be better. But
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: ask yourself one important question. Who do you actually trust
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: to make it better? President Trump, who has done more
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: in two years than most presidents do in a full term?
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: Or the Democrats, who keep taking what Trump built, running
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: it into the ground, and then handing it back to
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: us to fix, and then blaming us for the mess
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: they made? Because when it comes to buying expensive things...
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: false Democrat promises are still the one thing this country
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: cannot afford. Still ahead tonight, a court in Missouri just
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: threw out the primary that voters had already cast and
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: scrambled their votes into entirely different races altogether. The man
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: whose seat they stole from you? Well, he's joining us
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: tonight to tell you his side of the story. Then,
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: President Trump's team stuns the world on Russia and Ukraine.
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: There might finally be peace. George Papadopoulos is here to
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: break it all down. And California's sidewalks turn into a
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: third world country while Democrats look the other way. All
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: that's coming up. Don't go anywhere.

• 12:09
  Speaker 1: Imagine you go to the polls in August. You cast
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: your ballot in a primary. You pick your candidate, the
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: guy you want to win. AND THEN WEEKS LATER A
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: COURT COMES ALONG AND TELLS YOU YOUR VOTE DOESN'T COUNT.
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: YOUR DISTRICT IS GONE. YOUR VOTE, WELL, SCRAMBLED INTO AN
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: ENTIRELY DIFFERENT RACE ALL TOGETHER. AND THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT JUST
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: And here's how we got here. For years, Missouri has
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: been a deep red state, sending six Republicans and two
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: Democrats to Congress. And earlier this year, at President Trump's urging,
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: Missouri's legislature redrew its congressional map to better reflect who
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: the people of that state actually are, reshaping a Kansas
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: City district long held by Democrat Emanuel Cleaver to give
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: those rural Republican voters a real voice. THE LEGISLATURE PASSED IT.
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: IT BECAME LAW. AND IN AUGUST, MISSOURIANS WENT OUT AND
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: VOTED IN THEIR PRIMARIES UNDER A NEW MAP. REPUBLICAN STATE
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: SENATOR RICK BRATTON WON HIS PRIMARY AND THE RIGHT TO
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: CHALLENGE CLEAVER IN NOVEMBER. THEN, LAST THURSDAY, THE MISSOURI SUPREME
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: COURT BLEW IT ALL UP. THE COURT ORDERED THE NEW
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: MAP TO BE PUT IN A PUBLIC REFERENDUM IN NOVEMBER,
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: WHICH MEANS FOR THIS ELECTION, THE STATE SNAPS BACK TO
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: THE OLD LINES. Now, think about what that does. The
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: primary already happened under the new map. Nearly 60% of
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: the voters in that reshaped district were new to it.
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: And now every one of them is being shuffled somewhere
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: else in some other district. Candidates who won their races
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: are suddenly running in districts they didn't even campaign in
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: in certain instances. Voters who picked a congressman in August
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: are going to go open their ballots in November and
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: find a completely different set of names. Their choice erased. Now,
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: the man who won that primary, well, he's not taking
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: it quietly. He's called the ruling abhorrent. He says the
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: timing is no coincidence and that it hands national Democrats
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: the exact seat they've been desperate for in their fight
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: to seize control of the House of Representatives. And he's
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: taking the fight to federal court, a case that may
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: well just be heading to the Supreme Court, like all
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: these other redistricting cases. Now, he joins me now. I'm
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: excited to bring on State Senator Rick Bratton. Welcome to
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: the show. What a crazy set of circumstances. Supreme Court.
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: or the state court reverses the map, say you have
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: to have a referendum instead. Now, you're appealing to the
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: federal courts. Will it go to the Supreme Court? How
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: quickly will voters get a determination of whether this is
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: going to stand or not? Because this is kind of insane.
• 14:52
  Speaker 4: So the attorney general luckily didn't appeal directly to the
• 14:56
  Speaker 4: United States Supreme Court.
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: They did.
• 14:59
  Speaker 4: Judge Kavanaugh brought the case before them. So he's actually
• 15:03
  Speaker 4: reading briefings of the Attorney General currently right now as
• 15:07
  Speaker 4: we speak, and we're hoping that it would be an
• 15:09
  Speaker 4: expedited situation to rectify, put a stay on the Missouri
• 15:14
  Speaker 4: State Supreme Court.
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: You're right.
• 15:16
  Speaker 4: I mean, they pulled pin, dropped grenade, and just walked
• 15:20
  Speaker 4: away on an election process never before in the United
• 15:25
  Speaker 4: States history ever has this happened before. They knew what
• 15:29
  Speaker 4: they were doing. They knew they were throwing an atom
• 15:30
  Speaker 4: bomb on this election process. And we work our tails
• 15:35
  Speaker 4: off to nine months of grueling a congressional campaign to
• 15:39
  Speaker 4: have a court, unelected court go and do this. It's unreal. Now,
• 15:45
  Speaker 4: we filed a federal court, myself, Congressman Bob Onder in St.
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: Louis area.
• 15:51
  Speaker 4: We did a joint lawsuit for the Eastern District Court.
• 15:55
  Speaker 4: So if the Supreme Court doesn't bring it up, we're
• 15:57
  Speaker 4: at least going to try to go our avenue of
• 16:00
  Speaker 4: what we can do as individuals to So hopefully one
• 16:03
  Speaker 4: way or another, the court will see this and want
• 16:05
  Speaker 4: to remedy this.
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, they have to, because to take the
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: to redraw the districts and put everything back to the
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: way it was, not only the campaign challengers, and I'll
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: talk about that in a second, but the people you're
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: basically taking away the people's right in their primaries to
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: decide who represents them. I don't understand how after an
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: election you can revert. I mean, at that point, I
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: think the damage is. would be done. I would be
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: shocked if the Supreme Court allowed this to stand because
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: what happens to the people who voted for you and
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: wanted you to represent them? They can't? I mean, they
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: can't pick their representative anymore? Do they have to redo
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: the primary? I mean, have they thought this through? What
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: would happen? It just goes back and that's that? None.
• 16:43
  Speaker 4: There was no direction whatsoever in the actual court ruling
• 16:47
  Speaker 4: of what to do, how to do, what we're supposed
• 16:49
  Speaker 4: to do as the Republican nominee for the 5th District.
• 16:52
  Speaker 4: Now I'm not even remotely close to that old district.
• 16:57
  Speaker 4: I haven't campaigned in it, but I mean, you've disenfranchised 1.2
• 17:01
  Speaker 4: million people who already concrete in ironclad voted who they
• 17:06
  Speaker 4: want to represent them. And you're right now going to
• 17:08
  Speaker 4: go into a general election. That's less than 60 days
• 17:11
  Speaker 4: out and going to be voting for someone in an
• 17:13
  Speaker 4: entirely different district and an entirely different field of, of
• 17:18
  Speaker 4: representatives to, and a block to vote for. I mean,
• 17:21
  Speaker 4: this would be like in a football game, replacing the entire,
• 17:25
  Speaker 4: both teams and, And then you're going to move the
• 17:28
  Speaker 4: game midstream halftime and you're going to move it to
• 17:31
  Speaker 4: a different field. I mean, you would say that would
• 17:34
  Speaker 4: be insane and no one would ever do that. Well,
• 17:36
  Speaker 4: that's exactly what occurred right here in Missouri. So we're
• 17:41
  Speaker 4: real hopeful because the courts see primary and a general
• 17:45
  Speaker 4: as one singular election cycle. So we're hoping that they
• 17:50
  Speaker 4: see this as a travesty and misjustice or injustice to
• 17:54
  Speaker 4: the people of Missouri as it is. And they fix
• 17:57
  Speaker 4: this and remediate it today.
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: Today's Tuesday.
• 18:00
  Speaker 4: And the thing that stinks about this is in Missouri,
• 18:03
  Speaker 4: this is our cutoff line to send ballots to print
• 18:07
  Speaker 4: for our election.
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: Oh, my gosh.
• 18:08
  Speaker 4: So we're really hopeful that the Supreme Court acts today. Now,
• 18:12
  Speaker 4: they can extend because they are a federal court and
• 18:16
  Speaker 4: it's a federal election. They can extend it a few days,
• 18:19
  Speaker 4: but it would sure be a much more seamless process
• 18:22
  Speaker 4: if they did it today.
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: I mean, they have to. Could you imagine ballots going
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: out with the old districts and then the Supreme Court
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: coming back and saying, no, there's new— I mean, the
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: waste of taxpayer money, first of all, but also the
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: waste of time and the confusion it creates. I don't
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: see how they let this stand. And to your point,
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: you've spent— primaries, you spend a lot of money. GOING TO VOTERS,
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: SENDING MAIL, GOING DOOR TO DOOR, KNOCKING ON DOORS, YOU KNOW,
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: YOU'RE APPEALING DIRECTLY TO YOUR VOTERS. TO DO THIS, BASICALLY,
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: IT TAKES ALL OF THAT WORK AWAY, ALL OF THAT INVESTMENT,
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: AND IT ALSO TAKES A LOT OF CHOICE AWAY FROM
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: THE VOTERS BECAUSE NOW THEY DON'T HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: EVEN LEARN WHO'S SEEKING TO REPRESENT THEM. I don't see
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: any other way this goes without creating irreparable harm. They're
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: going to have to go through those lines that are created.
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: Keep us posted, please, on what's going to happen, because
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: we're going to be watching this very closely. Hopefully the
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: Supreme Court will act fast because this can't stand.
• 19:17
  Speaker 4: I agree. I hope that they act very, very fast
• 19:21
  Speaker 4: so we're able to get back to doing what we
• 19:23
  Speaker 4: can do to represent the people of the actual fifth
• 19:27
  Speaker 4: and not the old fifth.
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: Well, Senator, I really do appreciate your commitment to giving
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: the people a voice and your service to this country.
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: And thanks so much for being here today. Thanks for
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: having me. Appreciate it. Thank you. This weekend, Trump's men
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: sat with Putin and then Zelensky, and the guns over
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: both capitals went quiet. Is peace finally within reach? We
• 19:51

  Speaker 1: PRESIDENT TRUMP HAS WANTED TO PRESIDENT TRUMP HAS WANTED TO
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: SEE AN END TO THE RUSSIA-UKRAINE SEE AN END TO
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: THE RUSSIA-UKRAINE WAR, BUT BASICALLY SINCE DAY ONE, AND WE'RE
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: WELL PAST DAY ONE, BUT NOW THERE MIGHT JUST FINALLY
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: BE AN END IN SIGHT. JARED KUSHNER AND STEVE WITKOFF,
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: THE PRESIDENT'S NEGOTIATORS, SAT DOWN WITH VLADIMIR PUTIN IN THE
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: KREMLIN ON SATURDAY, A MEETING THAT RAN MORE THAN THREE HOURS.
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: BY SUNDAY, THOSE SAME TWO MEN shuttle diplomacy between two
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: warring capitals, Moscow to Kiev, in a single weekend. President
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: Trump had sent them in his own words with an
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: idea for peace, saying there may be a good chance
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: that we'll do it. Now, here's the part that tells
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: you something real is happening right now as we speak.
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: THE MISSILES HAVE GONE QUIET OVER BOTH CAPITALS. PUTIN AND
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: ZELENSKYY EACH AGREED TO HOLD THEIR FIRE, NO STRIKES ON MOSCOW,
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: NO STRIKES ON KYIV, WHILE THESE TALKS ARE UNDERWAY. ZELENSKYY
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: SAYS HIS PROPOSALS ARE READY, THAT PEACE IS NEEDED, AND
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: THAT UKRAINE IS PREPARED FOR WHAT HE HIMSELF IS CALLING
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: THE LAST MILE OF THIS PROCESS. The National Security Advisors
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: of Britain, France, and Germany are now in the room
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: as well. The big question is whether we'll get an
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: answer to the hardest question this entire war, who controls
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: the Donbas? And will that issue prevent peace like it
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: has every single other time we've attempted to stop this war? Now,
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: joining me now to break it all down and hopefully
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: answer that question is our good friend George Papadopoulos, former
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: Trump foreign policy advisor and author of the book Deep
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: State Target. Great read. George, thank you so much for
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: being here today. Look, we're all focused on Iran. And
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: today there was talks of maybe Karg Island under attack
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: and turned out there was some tankers struck. But Russia, Ukraine,
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: this is a big story because it looks like we're
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: making real progress. Do you think we're actually going to
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: get somewhere? Yeah, thanks a lot for having me, David.
• 23:31
  Speaker 5: Well, look, I think the art of the peace deal
• 23:33
  Speaker 5: was on full display. And the red carpet treatments that
• 23:38
  Speaker 5: both Kushner and Witkoff received in both Moscow and Kyiv
• 23:44
  Speaker 5: was not simply symbolic, but it really produced tangible results.
• 23:49
  Speaker 5: You explained that the missiles were halted during the continuation
• 23:55
  Speaker 5: of these talks. There was a pledged and a phone
• 23:59
  Speaker 5: call between President Trump and President Putin regarding the outstanding
• 24:05
  Speaker 5: nature of the visit. to both Ukraine and Russia by
• 24:10
  Speaker 5: Witkoff and Kushner. And now there is a progression towards
• 24:15
  Speaker 5: a future-oriented and a peace-oriented vision for not only Russia
• 24:22
  Speaker 5: and Ukraine, but Eurasia and the European continent. And ultimately, David,
• 24:28
  Speaker 5: President Trump campaigned on and he won on ending this war.
• 24:33
  Speaker 5: And I think he's closer than ever before.
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: So what has to happen? Obviously, there's the disputed regions,
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: which started this whole conflict almost two administrations ago and
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: carried over to this one to remind viewers this is
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: not a war that happened under President Trump's watch. It's
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: a war that started under Obama and then reinstigated under Biden.
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: Trump has been trying to solve this problem. Now, the
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: big hangups, obviously, are these disputed territories. What do you
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: think a peace plan looks like?
• 25:03
  Speaker 5: Well, I mean, we have to just remember how diametrically
• 25:06
  Speaker 5: different the situation is between President Trump and President Biden.
• 25:12
  Speaker 5: What President Biden and the Democrats basically did was is
• 25:18
  Speaker 5: lead the Ukrainians to a lose-lose situation where they were
• 25:23
  Speaker 5: sending billions of dollars to and military weapons and gave
• 25:28
  Speaker 5: them the false hope that they could eventually defeat a
• 25:31
  Speaker 5: much larger and militarily superior enemy like Russia. The more
• 25:37
  Speaker 5: that the Ukrainians fought and died under the Biden administration,
• 25:42
  Speaker 5: the more territory they lost. That is the simple fact.
• 25:46
  Speaker 5: Fast forward to President Trump's options. President Trump is attempting
• 25:51
  Speaker 5: now to secure Ukraine as a sovereign nation, one in
• 25:56
  Speaker 5: which the United States has already signed a massive mineral
• 26:00
  Speaker 5: rights deal with. There are discussions now to produce drone
• 26:04
  Speaker 5: technology together and to have further U.S. capital invested in Ukraine.
• 26:11
  Speaker 5: The only way to have that happen is for the
• 26:13
  Speaker 5: war to end. Because if the war continues, the Ukrainian
• 26:18
  Speaker 5: nation will no longer be sovereign and the borders that
• 26:21
  Speaker 5: existed before the war will no longer exist. So I
• 26:24
  Speaker 5: think there will eventually have to be some sort of
• 26:28
  Speaker 5: territory swaps or recognition by the international community in eastern Ukraine,
• 26:35
  Speaker 5: possibly Crimea, which reflect the facts on the ground that
• 26:40
  Speaker 5: most of these people are ethnic Russian, they speak Russian,
• 26:43
  Speaker 5: and they are aligned with Russia. Just eight years ago,
• 26:47
  Speaker 5: even less than that, Ukraine was attacking the eastern portion
• 26:51
  Speaker 5: of Ukraine because these individuals that lived there and in
• 26:55
  Speaker 5: Crimea did not want to be part of Ukraine. I
• 26:58
  Speaker 5: think that's ultimately what's going to happen here, David. The
• 27:01
  Speaker 5: United States will then secure Ukraine as a sovereign nation.
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: The war will end.
• 27:06
  Speaker 3: U.S.
• 27:07
  Speaker 5: Business will thrive in Ukraine. And the future chapter in U.S.-Russia
• 27:11
  Speaker 5: relations will finally be written.
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: And that will be a win-win.
• 27:15
  Speaker 5: For the United States, Russia, and also Ukraine.
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: Now, can't the people vote in those areas? I mean,
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: I know Russia is ACTING AS A MILITARY ON THEIR
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: BEHALF IN SOME RESPECTS, AND UKRAINE IS TRYING TO DEFEND
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: THAT TERRITORY. BUT CAN THE PEOPLE WHO LIVE THERE JUST DECIDE?
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: WOULDN'T THAT BE A FAIR OUTCOME, LET THE PEOPLE DECIDE
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: WHERE THEY WANT TO LIVE?
• 27:36
  Speaker 5: Well, that's really why there's been a call for elections,
• 27:39
  Speaker 5: in order for the people and the will of the
• 27:42
  Speaker 5: people to be heard. It happened in Crimea, where the
• 27:47
  Speaker 5: people overwhelmingly voted to be part of Russia. Some people
• 27:52
  Speaker 5: dispute those results. The same situation could happen in the
• 27:55
  Speaker 5: eastern part of Ukraine.
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: And nationally.
• 27:59
  Speaker 5: So that's really what the Trump administration and the international
• 28:02
  Speaker 5: community should be focusing on now. What is day one
• 28:07
  Speaker 5: after the peace talks end? What does a future Ukrainian
• 28:11
  Speaker 5: nation look like and what kind of leadership will it have?
• 28:15
  Speaker 5: We'll have leadership that can work and live side by
• 28:18
  Speaker 5: side with Russia or once again be used as a
• 28:22
  Speaker 5: tool by the deep state and some in the Democrat
• 28:25
  Speaker 5: Party to antagonize yet another Russian invasion.
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: We hope that never happens again. We hope that.
• 28:32
  Speaker 5: Peace ensues and that these two nations can live side
• 28:35
  Speaker 5: by side in peace with the United States in a
• 28:38
  Speaker 5: leadership role.
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: I mean, that's the outcome everybody wants. I mean, Trump
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: says he wanted this war over on day one. And obviously,
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: we're pretty far out from day one. But I'm encouraged
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: to see what's happening here. I think both sides are
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: sick of fighting. And look, get Ukraine-Russia hammered out. Get
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: Iran settled out. And honestly, unless China starts talking about
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: Taiwan or North Korea gets belligerent again, we're heading towards
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: really historic peace worldwide, right?
• 29:09
  Speaker 5: Well, that's really what the Trump doctrine has always been.
• 29:13
  Speaker 5: It's always about prioritizing peace and geoeconomics over war and geopolitics,
• 29:21
  Speaker 5: like so many former presidents prioritized, which ended up with
• 29:25
  Speaker 5: endless wars, trillions of dollars spent, and countless lives lost
• 29:31
  Speaker 5: by both our military men and women in uniform in
• 29:35
  Speaker 5: various theaters. I think we really need to support the
• 29:39
  Speaker 5: president's effort to finally alter that orthodoxy in both policy,
• 29:46
  Speaker 5: economic policy and wartime situations that the United States has
• 29:51
  Speaker 5: been in. I think the president's onto something here. The
• 29:54
  Speaker 5: people support him. And now we just need Congress to
• 29:57
  Speaker 5: do the right thing and support him, too.
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: Well, that's what we're hoping for. And we'll see. Maybe,
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: maybe Trump will get the Nobel Peace Prize at some point,
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: George Papadopoulos. Thank you so much for being here as
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: always and giving us your excellent takes. I appreciate it, David.
• 30:11
  Speaker 3: Thank you.
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: Thank you. When we come back, the sidewalks of California
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: now look like something out of a third world country.
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: Thousands of illegal food carts and the Democrats running those
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: cities have decided, well, they're going to do nothing about it.
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: And later in the Cardone zone, mortgage rates at a
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: four year low. And Donald Trump says he will be
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: known as the greatest housing president in history. Grant Cardone
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: is here on the American Dream getting its pulse back.
• 30:43

  Speaker 2: you can't get anywhere else.
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: There's a scene playing out on the sidewalks of California
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: right now that you'd probably expect to find in a
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: third world country. Picture it. Tense and Grills jammed across
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: the public sidewalks, blocking the path, raw, perishable meat, sitting
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: out in the open sun, no refrigeration, no hand-washing stations,
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: no permits, no inspections, no accountability of any kind. In
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: Los Angeles County alone, the Health Department logged a staggering 9,700
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: complaints about these illegal street food operations in about two years.
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: Nearly 10,000 in that. And here is what California's Democrat
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: leaders have decided to do about it. Ready? Nothing. They've
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: decided to do nothing. The mayor of Los Angeles, Karen Bass,
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: actually ordered her own police department to stop citing unpermitted
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: vendors and then called the whole thing a, and I quote,
• 32:28
  Speaker 1: quintessential part of LA's world-class food scene. She called it world-class,
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: so it looks like the streets of Mumbai. Now, down
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: in San Diego, a state court of appeals, they came
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: in and gutted a city cleanup effort that was actually working,
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: that actually restored order to the Balboa Park area, to
• 32:49
  Speaker 1: the Gaslamp area, which is the downtown area where all
• 32:52
  Speaker 1: the young people go out and party. Now, here's the thing.
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: These illegal carts, they came flooding right back in. The
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: business owners down there have one word for it. They
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: call it a disaster. Look, so ask yourself, Why would
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: a mayor tell her cops to stand down on food safety?
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: Why would a state let this fester? And the answer, well,
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: that's really the ugly part here because a great many
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: of these illegal vendors, guess what? They're also illegal aliens.
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: And to these politicians, shielding them for any enforcement or
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: actually having to follow the law at all, well, apparently
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: matters more than protecting the public that eats this food.
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: And more than protecting the legal, tax-paying American small business owner,
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: right next door. They literally set up right in front
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: of them. Now, the one who does everything right, buys
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: the permit, passes inspection, pays the insurance, pays the taxes,
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: pays the rent, well, they get fined or shut down
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: while illegal operations literally right in front of their stores
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: are protected. It's not compassion. It's the rot of one-party
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: rule here in California. And nobody has fought this fight
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: on the ground in California longer than my next guest.
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: Joining me now in studio, Amy Reichert, chairwoman and founder
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: of Restore San Diego. Welcome back to David Pollak Prime Time.
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: I saw you posting about this on social media and
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: I just couldn't believe it. I've seen those carts downtown.
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: I've seen them in a lot of cities. But now
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: they're literally everywhere. The tents, the carts, the vendors. It's
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: not just food. It's little like tchotchkes and things. It
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: literally looks like you're walking around like either Tijuana, Mexico
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: or like a cruise port. I'm trying to give the
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: audience some sort of visualization. They saw your clip. But
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: it's like walking around a cruise port where you have
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: all these vendors like pushing stuff on you and you
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: just want to walk down the street. Can you talk
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: about what in the heck is happening down there and
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: how awful it's made it to just kind of get
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: from one place to the other?
• 34:54
  Speaker 8: It's organized chaos and it's caused by the California Democrats.
• 34:58
  Speaker 8: They decriminalized street vending laws almost eight years ago. And
• 35:03
  Speaker 8: they've even passed recent legislation that says that police cannot
• 35:07
  Speaker 8: contact ICE when it's just an obvious case. of illegal
• 35:11
  Speaker 8: immigrants running these things. And here's the real problem. Some
• 35:15
  Speaker 8: of these carts are run by people who are here
• 35:18
  Speaker 8: illegally and they're paying off smugglers debts to the cartels
• 35:23
  Speaker 8: who are sending hundreds of these carts to descend upon
• 35:27
  Speaker 8: the city of San Diego any given weekend with these
• 35:31
  Speaker 8: big white trucks and just hundreds of these carts roll
• 35:34
  Speaker 8: off of these trucks.
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: Now, even And that's a huge, I mean, having cartels
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: have food trucks is probably a bad thing. Having illegal
• 35:43
  Speaker 1: aliens be able to go and sell food, the sanitary
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: issues alone. I mean, like you watch those videos on
• 35:50
  Speaker 1: like YouTube of the people who go to like India
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: and try all the weird street food. We don't want
• 35:54
  Speaker 1: that in the United States. Now, without the refrigeration, without
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: the inspections, there's a reason why you have public safety
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: or public health inspectors because they don't want people getting sick.
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: But for these folks, they can make somebody sick, and
• 36:06
  Speaker 1: there's no accountability because they're illegally. We don't even know
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: who was operating the carts, right?
• 36:11
  Speaker 6: That's why I call them cartel dogs.
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: These are bacon-wrapped hot dogs, by the way, right?
• 36:17
  Speaker 6: Yeah. And by the way, these hot dogs aren't even cheap.
• 36:20
  Speaker 6: Their market is drunk people coming out of the bars.
• 36:24
  Speaker 8: So these are about $ 12 a pop, and there's been
• 36:26
  Speaker 8: allegation that some of these vendors are actually overcharging some
• 36:30
  Speaker 8: of these drunk customers, too. And they're taking the grease
• 36:35
  Speaker 8: from the hot dogs and they're putting them down storm
• 36:37
  Speaker 8: drains and causing fires right in front of Petco Park.
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, they're polluting, they're causing fires. Then there's
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: the other aspect of this, and this has to do
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: with the fairness, and this has to do with every
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: one of these Democrat policies that inevitably hurt taxpayers or
• 36:52
  Speaker 1: law-abiding people, whether it's the homelessness, whether it's, you know,
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: the fact that they could use drugs in open air,
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: all the things that the Democrats promote. that are terrible
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: for the people who actually live in California. This is
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: particularly bad for the businesses because you have these food trucks,
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: as you saw in your package there, they're setting these
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: little carts, not even food trucks, these carts directly in
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: front of businesses selling food so they can wheel their
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: cart up in front of a store with a long
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: line and then their customers go, oh, I'm just gonna
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: go get a bacon-wrapped poison dog instead of waiting in
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: the line for this store. They're competing with law-abiding businesses
• 37:27
  Speaker 1: that have to pay the taxes, have to pay the insurance,
• 37:28
  Speaker 1: have to be inspected. How is a city that you
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: pay taxes to allowing people to compete with you without
• 37:35
  Speaker 1: having to carry the same burden, especially when they're not
• 37:38
  Speaker 1: even citizens?
• 37:39
  Speaker 8: This has real world consequences. I spoke to a Gaslamp
• 37:44
  Speaker 8: restaurant owner who did close because these hot dog carts
• 37:47
  Speaker 8: were literally, not one, not two, but three were setting
• 37:51
  Speaker 8: up right in front of his entrance. And there was
• 37:53
  Speaker 8: nothing that he could do about it because the state
• 37:55
  Speaker 8: law specifically says one of the grounds that the police
• 37:58
  Speaker 8: cannot use to shut these down is it's actually.
• 38:01
  Speaker 6: Destroying a business. That's written in the law.
• 38:04
  Speaker 8: So these business owners sued the city of San Diego,
• 38:08
  Speaker 8: and that's where the allegations came out that these carts
• 38:10
  Speaker 8: are actually run by the cartels.
• 38:13
  Speaker 1: That is so absolutely unbelievable. And the thing is, this
• 38:16
  Speaker 1: isn't just San Diego, it's not just LA. Anywhere in
• 38:18
  Speaker 1: California now, you could do this. And once the word
• 38:21
  Speaker 1: gets out, they're going to be everywhere because it doesn't
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: cost them anything. They've got to work, right? And the
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: more ICE cracks down on employing illegal aliens, well, then
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: they set up these little carts. Have you been in
• 38:34
  Speaker 1: New York and seen the street vendors in New York?
• 38:36
  Speaker 1: They have similar policies. You can't walk down certain streets
• 38:39
  Speaker 1: in New York because the sidewalks are literally filled with
• 38:42
  Speaker 1: blankets with all these like knockoff goods on. And then
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: if the police come, they come and pick them up
• 38:46
  Speaker 1: and they run away. But they're aggressive. They're they harass you.
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: This is what it's going to look like in California
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: unless somebody does something right.
• 38:54
  Speaker 6: They're blocking sidewalks.
• 38:56
  Speaker 8: And I was just down in La Jolla Cove, which
• 38:58
  Speaker 8: is just a beautiful gem of a place in California.
• 39:02
  Speaker 6: And it's been ruined.
• 39:03
  Speaker 8: It now looks like a third world swap meet. There's
• 39:06
  Speaker 8: all of these tents that are pitched. They're there all weekend.
• 39:09
  Speaker 8: They take the best parking spots. They block the view.
• 39:12
  Speaker 8: And they're selling tchotchkes, dollar store items, and Mexican blankets.
• 39:18
  Speaker 8: And it's really destroying not only businesses, but just the
• 39:22
  Speaker 8: quality of life here in California.
• 39:24
  Speaker 1: Well, and when you start bringing in people, the reality
• 39:28
  Speaker 1: is it's not just these vendors that are coming in.
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: And then you have, it attracts other things like homeless
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: people that are looking for scraps of food and begging
• 39:36
  Speaker 1: people for money. Because if you're pulling your money out
• 39:38
  Speaker 1: and you're buying things at these events, well, the homeless
• 39:40
  Speaker 1: people know if you're pulling money out and there's food there,
• 39:42
  Speaker 1: maybe you give it to them. And California already has
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: such a crisis around with homeless people everywhere you go.
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: Homeless people living on the side of the road, camping
• 39:50
  Speaker 1: on the street, passed out from drugs in their own
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: urine or feces most of the time. It's literally one
• 39:55
  Speaker 1: of the prettiest places that have been absolutely destroyed by
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: Democrat policies, right?
• 40:00
  Speaker 6: And it's the message that it's sending.
• 40:02
  Speaker 8: So if you have lawlessness going on with people doing
• 40:05
  Speaker 8: whatever they want, setting up right in front of the business,
• 40:07
  Speaker 8: that means everything else goes too. It goes back to
• 40:10
  Speaker 8: New York City, the theory of the broken window. Like
• 40:14
  Speaker 8: if you allow a broken window to exist on a
• 40:16
  Speaker 8: street and you don't fix it, that's when the graffiti
• 40:19
  Speaker 8: starts coming in. So you've got to fix the window.
• 40:21
  Speaker 8: You've got to fix the graffiti. Same with these illegal
• 40:24
  Speaker 8: street vendors. They have to have the law apply to
• 40:26
  Speaker 8: them too.
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: So what is being done? Have you heard, I mean,
• 40:30
  Speaker 1: with people speaking out against it, I mean, has there
• 40:32
  Speaker 1: been any pushback? Is the community coming together? What is
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: going to be done? Because we've seen that elections don't
• 40:37
  Speaker 1: really matter because, you know, you're a couple of months
• 40:40
  Speaker 1: of mail-in votes away from it not making a difference.
• 40:42
  Speaker 1: So what can the community do to stop it?
• 40:45
  Speaker 8: Well, San Diego police came in and impounded some of
• 40:48
  Speaker 8: these illegal food carts, and then what happened was the
• 40:52
  Speaker 8: court said, no, you can't do that. And so all
• 40:54
  Speaker 8: these carts get maybe a $ 100 fine, and so it's
• 40:59
  Speaker 8: not even a criminal fine. There's no consequences. And the
• 41:02
  Speaker 8: courts have supported this approach and have struck down the
• 41:06
  Speaker 8: more punitive measures used by San Diego police. So right
• 41:10
  Speaker 8: now it's going to have to go to court. These
• 41:13
  Speaker 8: restaurant owners are suing the city of San Diego. And
• 41:16
  Speaker 8: I believe that they do have a case under equal
• 41:18
  Speaker 8: protection because why is the law protecting illegal street vendors
• 41:23
  Speaker 8: over legal businesses that are paying taxes, payroll taxes, and
• 41:26
  Speaker 8: workers' comp?
• 41:27
  Speaker 1: Well, that's exactly right. It seems, again, in California, just
• 41:31
  Speaker 1: like every other blue state, It seems that illegal aliens
• 41:34
  Speaker 1: get the health care. Illegal aliens can set up unregulated
• 41:37
  Speaker 1: food trucks. Illegal aliens can just basically do whatever they want,
• 41:40
  Speaker 1: while people, American citizens who have to pay taxes, have
• 41:44
  Speaker 1: to basically take a seat behind the people that are
• 41:47
  Speaker 1: here illegally. It's shocking. It is shocking how this happens
• 41:52
  Speaker 1: in blue states. And what's even more shocking is that,
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: and maybe there's a reason for it, but it's shocking
• 41:57
  Speaker 1: that election after election, the people who put these policies
• 41:59
  Speaker 1: in place don't lose their jobs.
• 42:02
  Speaker 6: I'm with you.
• 42:02
  Speaker 8: Wake up, California. And to the rest of the United States,
• 42:06
  Speaker 8: Gavin Newsom wants to be president. So please don't let
• 42:09
  Speaker 8: that happen.
• 42:09
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 42:10
  Speaker 1: Well, look, and that's what the midterms coming up. That
• 42:12
  Speaker 1: is really what's on the table here. I mean, do
• 42:14
  Speaker 1: you want these policies governing in Washington, D.C.? Do you
• 42:18
  Speaker 1: want more states being blue? This is a perfect example
• 42:21
  Speaker 1: of all the terrible things that happen when Democrats take over.
• 42:24
  Speaker 1: Thank you so much for documenting it. Thank you so
• 42:26
  Speaker 1: much for being here and bringing it to our attention.
• 42:29
  Speaker 1: Still ahead, the Cardone zone. My new favorite Tuesday night segment,
• 42:34
  Speaker 1: the dream of owning a home was slipping out of
• 42:38
  Speaker 1: reach for an entire generation. Now the numbers have turned
• 42:42
  Speaker 1: and President Trump has a plan to finish the job.
• 42:44
  Speaker 1: Grant Cardone is coming up next.

• 44:29
  Speaker 1: For America's youth, the dream of homeownership, well, it seems
• 44:33
  Speaker 1: out of reach. Mortgage rates north of 7%. A whole
• 44:36
  Speaker 1: generation of young families told, just keep renting. Get comfortable
• 44:41
  Speaker 1: owning nothing. That was the deal the Biden administration left behind. Now,
• 44:47
  Speaker 1: months before the midterm elections, Democrats and their friends in
• 44:50
  Speaker 1: the media, well, they want to lay the blame for
• 44:52
  Speaker 1: the housing market on Trump. And thanks to fake news,
• 44:56
  Speaker 1: most haven't heard that mortgage rates have now fallen to
• 44:59
  Speaker 1: their lowest point since 2022, down from over 7% to
• 45:03
  Speaker 1: right around 6%. Mortgage affordability just hit a four-year high.
• 45:08
  Speaker 1: Home purchase applications are up nearly 10% over last year.
• 45:13
  Speaker 1: Refinance applications have exploded up 132%. As homeowners lock in
• 45:19
  Speaker 1: and save thousands, rents have dropped six months in a row.
• 45:22
  Speaker 1: And builders, well, they're breaking ground again with housing starts
• 45:26
  Speaker 1: at a five-month high. Every single one of those arrows
• 45:30
  Speaker 1: is finally pointing in the right direction. This morning, President
• 45:34
  Speaker 1: Trump took his message straight to the people. President Donald J.
• 45:39
  Speaker 9: Trump has built a strong economy and is revitalizing the
• 45:42
  Speaker 9: American dream.
• 45:43
  Speaker 1: He will go down as the greatest housing president in history.
• 45:46
  Speaker 7: America was built one home at a time.
• 45:49
  Speaker 1: I believe that.
• 45:50
  Speaker 7: Because the American dream was never just an idea. It
• 45:53
  Speaker 7: was a front door, a set of keys, a place
• 45:56
  Speaker 7: where families built their future. For generations, homeownership meant security, independence.
• 46:03
  Speaker 1: And stability. THE AMERICAN DREAM, HE SAYS, WAS NEVER JUST
• 46:07
  Speaker 1: AN IDEA. IT WAS A FRONT DOOR SET OF KEYS,
• 46:09
  Speaker 1: A PLACE WHERE FAMILIES BUILT THEIR FUTURE. AND HIS PLAN
• 46:12
  Speaker 1: TO GET FAMILIES BACK THROUGH THAT FRONT DOOR IS AN
• 46:15
  Speaker 1: ALL NEW FANNY MAY AND FREDDIE MACK PLAN REBUILT TO
• 46:19
  Speaker 1: WORK WITH THE BANKS SO THAT GOOD HARD WORKING PEOPLE
• 46:22
  Speaker 1: STOP GETTING LOCKED OUT OVER A PAST THAT WASN'T PERFECT.
• 46:26
  Speaker 1: $ 200 billion into mortgage bonds for one express purpose, driving
• 46:33
  Speaker 1: your rate down even further. Now, the dream, it's not
• 46:36
  Speaker 1: fully restored, not yet. Prices are still high, and plenty
• 46:39
  Speaker 1: of families are still fighting to get in. But for
• 46:41
  Speaker 1: the first time in years, there's hope. I'M NOT JOINING
• 46:44
  Speaker 1: ME NOW. IS SOMEBODY WHO UNDERSTANDS REAL ESTATE PROBABLY BETTER
• 46:47
  Speaker 1: THAN ANYONE ELSE? IT'S TIME FOR THE CARDONE ZONE WITH
• 46:50
  Speaker 1: NONE OTHER THAN GRANT CARDONE, CEO OF CARDONE CAPITAL. MR.
• 46:54
  Speaker 1: GRANT CARDONE, WELCOME BACK TO DAVID POLLACK PRIME TIME. TRUMP
• 46:57
  Speaker 1: MADE NEWS THIS MORNING WITH THIS COMMERCIAL, I GUESS, GENERATED
• 47:00
  Speaker 1: THROUGH AI TALKING ABOUT HELPING YOUNG PEOPLE AFFORD HOMES. WHAT'S
• 47:03
  Speaker 1: YOUR TAKE? I KNOW HOW YOU FEEL ABOUT HOMEOWNERSHIP FOR
• 47:06
  Speaker 1: YOUNG PEOPLE.
• 47:11
  Speaker 3: Yeah, David, what President Trump is doing on homeownership is
• 47:15
  Speaker 3: absolutely necessary. And I know he's been wanting to push
• 47:19
  Speaker 3: on this sooner, actually, in his administration. He's got the
• 47:22
  Speaker 3: right guy in place with Bill Pulte at Fannie Mae.
• 47:25
  Speaker 3: Fannie Mae is the key to affordable homeownership. You can't
• 47:29
  Speaker 3: build cheaper today. Regulations are a major problem in most
• 47:34
  Speaker 3: of the blue states, major, major, probably one third of
• 47:37
  Speaker 3: the cost. So the only way to solve this problem
• 47:39
  Speaker 3: is either increase the supply, the amount of homes, which
• 47:43
  Speaker 3: cannot take place overnight. You just can't fix that overnight.
• 47:46
  Speaker 3: So the second best way to do it is to
• 47:48
  Speaker 3: reduce interest rates. And Donald Trump has been, you know,
• 47:52
  Speaker 3: he wanted to do this in his first administration and
• 47:55
  Speaker 3: he definitely wants to do it now. Iran's kind of
• 47:57
  Speaker 3: been a little bit of a setback for us, but
• 47:59
  Speaker 3: I know he's got Bill Pulte in place as chairman
• 48:01
  Speaker 3: of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. They're going to produce,
• 48:04
  Speaker 3: they're going to push out almost $ 300 billion worth of
• 48:07
  Speaker 3: loans this year and hopefully make housing affordable. Lower interest
• 48:13
  Speaker 3: rates is the fastest way to make, homes affordable today
• 48:17
  Speaker 3: in America.
• 48:18
  Speaker 1: Now, look, I know we've spoken on this program about
• 48:22
  Speaker 1: whether or not owning a home is the right investment
• 48:25
  Speaker 1: for young people. You've argued that it isn't the best
• 48:27
  Speaker 1: investment for young people. It's more of a trap. And instead,
• 48:29
  Speaker 1: they should be taking that money and putting it into
• 48:31
  Speaker 1: something that they can cash flow instead of being locked
• 48:34
  Speaker 1: into a mortgage. Exactly. But that said, there's still a
• 48:38
  Speaker 1: lot of people who don't want to think like an investor.
• 48:40
  Speaker 1: They just want to, you know, put up the picket fence,
• 48:44
  Speaker 1: own something, cut the grass, push their kids on the
• 48:46
  Speaker 1: tree swing. They want the dream. So for those people
• 48:49
  Speaker 1: who want the dream, this is a step in the
• 48:52
  Speaker 1: right direction, right?
• 48:54
  Speaker 6: 100%.
• 48:54
  Speaker 3: Just understand the dream comes with mowing the lawn. And
• 48:58
  Speaker 3: repairing the fence. And fixing the roof.
• 49:00
  Speaker 6: And the gutters.
• 49:01
  Speaker 3: And the termites and the gutters and all the other things. But, look,
• 49:05
  Speaker 3: there's probably, in this country, I think there's 38... What's
• 49:12
  Speaker 3: the number? It's some massive trillion dollar number of just
• 49:15
  Speaker 3: equity that sits in homes.
• 49:17
  Speaker 1: There's two problems.
• 49:19
  Speaker 3: One, can I afford a new home?
• 49:20
  Speaker 6: Home?
• 49:20
  Speaker 3: And number two, the guy that's sitting in a 2%
• 49:22
  Speaker 3: or 3% mortgage, can he trade out of the home
• 49:25
  Speaker 3: he's in for another newer home, bigger home, or in
• 49:29
  Speaker 3: a different location, but he's going to have a 7%
• 49:31
  Speaker 3: mortgage today? Well, that's not good for him. This is
• 49:33
  Speaker 3: where President Trump came up with the idea of basically
• 49:37
  Speaker 3: allowing that old loan to morph over into a new
• 49:41
  Speaker 3: house and it would transition that loan, which I think
• 49:45
  Speaker 3: is brilliant. Six months ago, he had people down in
• 49:49
  Speaker 3: my office in Miami looking for new ideas. He is
• 49:52
  Speaker 3: looking for new ways to make home ownership available and
• 49:56
  Speaker 3: affordable for all Americans, whether they're first-time buyers or they're
• 50:01
  Speaker 3: trying to move up from one home to the next.
• 50:03
  Speaker 1: That's the right thing to do. We're coming up on
• 50:06
  Speaker 1: the midterms. In the top of my show, I talked
• 50:08
  Speaker 1: about sort of I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT TO TALK ABOUT
• 50:11
  Speaker 1: THE AFFORDABILITY HOAX. EVERY TIME THERE'S AN ELECTION, WE'VE BEEN
• 50:13
  Speaker 1: THROUGH A LOT OF THEM, WHATEVER PARTY IS NOT IN POWER,
• 50:15
  Speaker 1: AFFORDABILITY IS THE THING THEY HIT. IT'S THIS PERSON'S ECONOMY.
• 50:18
  Speaker 1: THEY'RE RESPONSIBLE. BUT PRESIDENT TRUMP HAS TAKEN THIS ECONOMY THAT
• 50:21
  Speaker 1: CAME FROM JOE BIDEN, THE INTEREST RATES THAT CAME FROM
• 50:23
  Speaker 1: JOE BIDEN, ALL THE TROUBLES THAT CAME FROM THE HOUSING
• 50:25
  Speaker 1: MARKET ALL CAME FROM JOE BIDEN. HE'S SITTING THERE GOING, OKAY,
• 50:29
  Speaker 1: WHAT CAN WE DO TO FIX THIS? WHAT CAN WE
• 50:31
  Speaker 1: DO TO FIX THIS? JUST LIKE YOU SAID, SENDING PEOPLE
• 50:33
  Speaker 1: TO TALK TO YOU, COMING UP WITH NEW IDEAS. It
• 50:39
  Speaker 1: should have been 100. 300 years. Why not? Just pay
• 50:42
  Speaker 1: the mortgage forever.
• 50:45
  Speaker 3: Well, the truth is the average homeowner doesn't pay the
• 50:48
  Speaker 3: mortgage forever. The average homeowner stays in a home eight years.
• 50:51
  Speaker 3: So whether it's 50 years, 30 years, 15 years, or 100,
• 50:53
  Speaker 3: it doesn't matter. You're going to pay the loan off
• 50:57
  Speaker 3: by selling it to the next buyer. And it does
• 51:01
  Speaker 3: actually make things affordable. But they should have done 100,
• 51:03
  Speaker 3: not 50. And I'm being serious about that. But the
• 51:06
  Speaker 3: second thing that they talked about when they were in
• 51:08
  Speaker 3: my office, I'm like, why don't you take the depreciation
• 51:12
  Speaker 3: schedule that I get when I buy a commercial property
• 51:15
  Speaker 3: that's already approved by Congress, by the way, allows me
• 51:18
  Speaker 3: to write off 100% accelerated depreciation in year one. Why
• 51:21
  Speaker 3: don't you provide that for the homeowner? Because it would
• 51:24
  Speaker 3: be a massive tax savings to people buying a new home.
• 51:28
  Speaker 3: He's looking at that. OK, he's also looking at raising
• 51:32
  Speaker 3: the bar on capital gains so that, you know, you're
• 51:35
  Speaker 3: not paying taxes on the first 500, but maybe the
• 51:38
  Speaker 3: first two or three million that that needs to be changed.
• 51:41
  Speaker 3: And he's looking at it. The number I was quoting
• 51:44
  Speaker 3: earlier is $ 34 trillion. $ 34 trillion is sitting in what
• 51:50
  Speaker 3: I refer to as dead equity that people could be
• 51:53
  Speaker 3: accessing today if the rates were lower and investing in
• 51:56
  Speaker 3: stocks or their business or their kids' education if you
• 52:00
  Speaker 3: want to send them to college. which I'm also against.
• 52:05
  Speaker 3: But those are the kind of things that President Trump
• 52:08
  Speaker 3: actually thinks about way out of the box. And you
• 52:11
  Speaker 3: are absolutely right. He inherited the higher interest rates. He
• 52:15
  Speaker 3: inherited the Iran problem. That's the only reason we're over
• 52:18
  Speaker 3: there right now. And I believe the only reason we
• 52:20
  Speaker 3: have high interest rates today is because of Iran. As
• 52:23
  Speaker 3: soon as we finish that war or whatever's happening over there,
• 52:26
  Speaker 3: I think interest rates are going to fall off the cliff.
• 52:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree with you. And we've seen just when
• 52:31
  Speaker 1: the Memorandum of Understanding was signed in Iran, oil prices
• 52:34
  Speaker 1: went down, gas prices went down. We talked about lower
• 52:36
  Speaker 1: interest rates. So I agree. All of this is tied
• 52:38
  Speaker 1: up in Iran. And of course, the argument, I don't
• 52:40
  Speaker 1: want to go too far in Iran, is, well, see,
• 52:41
  Speaker 1: this is why we shouldn't be in Iran. But that's
• 52:43
  Speaker 1: besides the point. The point is the economy is strong.
• 52:46
  Speaker 1: INTEREST RATES ARE COMING DOWN. THE PRESIDENT IS BEING CREATIVE
• 52:48
  Speaker 1: TO LOWER THE PRICE OF HOME BUYERS. WITH MIDTERMS COMING UP,
• 52:51
  Speaker 1: NOW ISN'T THE TIME TO FALL FOR THE LEFT-WING TALKING
• 52:54
  Speaker 1: POINT OF SOMEHOW ELECTING DEMOCRATS IS GOING TO MAKE HOUSING AFFORDABLE.
• 52:57
  Speaker 1: DEMOCRATS INVENTED THIS PROBLEM. PRESIDENT TRUMP IS TALKING TO SMART
• 53:00
  Speaker 1: PEOPLE LIKE YOU TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM, RIGHT?
• 53:03
  Speaker 3: WELL, I CAN'T CALL MYSELF A SMART PERSON. I HAVE
• 53:07
  Speaker 3: INVESTED IN A LOT OF REAL ESTATE, AND AMERICANS SHOULD
• 53:10
  Speaker 3: UNDERSTAND THAT THE REAL ESTATE THAT YOU THINK IS TOO
• 53:12
  Speaker 3: EXPENSIVE TODAY WILL BE MORE EXPENSIVE IN THE FUTURE. And
• 53:16
  Speaker 3: outsiders make real estate markets. And like I'm in Miami,
• 53:20
  Speaker 3: the people in Miami are.
• 53:21
  Speaker 1: Not driving the prices up.
• 53:22
  Speaker 3: It's the New Yorkers and the Californians, the outsiders come
• 53:25
  Speaker 3: in and drive prices up. So what you think is
• 53:27
  Speaker 3: expensive today will be more expensive tomorrow. When I was
• 53:31
  Speaker 3: growing up in 1958, the average price of a home
• 53:33
  Speaker 3: was $ 7, 800. And my father was complaining about the prices
• 53:38
  Speaker 3: when he was buying his first house.
• 53:40
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, and that's the reality is things are expensive.
• 53:43
  Speaker 1: People complain about the prices. But real estate has always
• 53:46
  Speaker 1: been a good investment. And if people can pull some
• 53:48
  Speaker 1: of that equity out, if we can lower interest rates,
• 53:50
  Speaker 1: they can invest and can create cash flow. Grant Cardone,
• 53:52
  Speaker 1: I absolutely love these Tuesday Cardone Zone segments. We're going
• 53:56
  Speaker 1: to have to talk about maybe on a slow news
• 53:57
  Speaker 1: day because there's always breaking news when you come on.
• 54:00
  Speaker 1: But on a slow news day, we're going to have
• 54:01

• 54:03
