october 30 four days before
00:09
the us election and probably 20 days
00:13
before it’s determined who won
00:16
which is you know it’s funny but not
00:19
there have been i guess secret
00:22
zoom meetings released by various
00:26
leaders of leftist groups
00:28
in the states indicating that whoever
00:30
wins
00:31
uh there will be massive violence
00:33
they’re going to use this election
00:34
period
00:35
i guess to advance the you know the
00:37
revolution or whatever
00:39
um what can you tell us about that
00:40
that’s you know i think i
00:42
i think intuitively we all know there’s
00:44
going to be violence
00:45
probably no matter who wins but it would
00:48
be good to have some idea of
00:50
the breadth intense the tempo and the
00:52
intensity of it
00:56
i would be uh let me let me uh go back a
00:58
little earlier on that too
01:00
i i don’t think there’s i think again
01:03
uh this is my election prediction i
01:05
think everybody recognizes
01:08
uh kind of behind the scenes that trump
01:11
is an
01:11
extraordinarily good position and that
01:14
it looks like
01:15
trump is going to win and win very
01:17
handily
01:19
and i say that based on a number of
01:21
things that are out there one of the
01:23
the surprising groups where uh trump is
01:26
doing really well
01:28
is the youth and that’s not a group
01:30
where he’s ever done well before
01:32
and republicans don’t traditionally do
01:33
well and but the youth are looking at
01:36
all these shutdowns and everything and
01:37
they’re going ah you know that biting
01:39
guy’s gonna bring more shutdowns enough
01:40
you know
01:41
i want a party or whatever they’re done
01:43
you know in the in the
01:44
healthy young 20 year olds and stuff are
01:46
not the ones dying of covet so they just
01:49
you know selfishly or however you want
01:51
to phrase it are just
01:53
not uh not wanting to see anything like
01:57
that
01:57
anymore they’re tired of it actually i
01:59
don’t mean to let me interrupt you but i
02:01
can’t help
02:02
but point out that trump gets has three
02:05
or four rallies in a day
02:06
with 10 20 30 000 people at each one and
02:10
uh joe biden appears to be having these
02:12
odd sort of croquet matches
02:16
he does and he’s had a couple things he
02:18
he’s done
02:19
more appearances or he will have done
02:22
more appearances
02:23
in the last week before
02:26
the election than he had done in the
02:28
last couple months
02:30
so he’s doing and certainly doing more
02:32
than he’s ever done
02:33
before during the for this presidential
02:35
election
02:36
and it’s starting to show where in his
02:38
hair and he had one out today where he
02:41
he was talking it’s it’s being played on
02:43
the radio and stuff a lot here and it’s
02:44
come out on the news a little bit on
02:47
some of the outlets but he was kind of
02:49
unintelligible he was saying
02:51
making noises but wasn’t saying words
02:53
and
02:54
a couple of times he’s had to slur and
02:56
change and
02:57
all of this schedule that he’s keeping
02:59
now is clearly
03:01
uh really wearing on when it’s starting
03:03
to show the weaknesses in him and and
03:05
again i’ll repeat this the guy is
03:07
mentally infirm
03:08
and i think what’s being done and how
03:10
he’s being used is in fact cruel it
03:12
shows the
03:12
kind of the cruel nature of what the
03:14
left is like they don’t
03:16
care about people and any rate that’s
03:19
that’s a side point but
03:21
i think biden is aware of how much
03:23
trouble he is in
03:24
and and is taking the risk of pushing
03:27
himself beyond the boundaries where he
03:29
knows he should be
03:30
operating because that’s where he stayed
03:32
before because he knows he’s losing and
03:34
some of those other groups that i wanted
03:36
to mention besides the youth
03:37
there’s people talking 30 vote and some
03:41
things like well pennsylvania and the
03:42
philadelphia vote if 30 percent of the
03:44
black vote in philadelphia
03:46
goes trump or anything even near it if
03:48
it’s 20 percent
03:49
democrats are toast they’re just done in
03:52
that state
03:52
and they’re talking about record
03:56
hispanic
03:56
record black record youth uh record
04:00
jewish uh record asian all of these
04:03
groups that did so well
04:04
in those first three years of trump
04:06
prior to covet
04:07
all recognize this guy’s gonna bring it
04:09
back and
04:11
biden you know there’s no enthusiasm for
04:13
biden so
04:14
you combine all of these things the the
04:17
polls that have talked about
04:18
voter enthusiasm the voter enthusiasm
04:21
for trump
04:21
is is just off the charts and these
04:25
things that they’re not polling include
04:27
stuff like 15 percent
04:28
undivided those guys are all going to
04:30
break for the president i mean just
04:32
incumbents always get the larger break
04:35
for those
04:36
15 of the voters undecided is an
04:38
enormous chunk
04:39
and if 10 of that 15 goes for trump
04:42
again that puts it out of reach for the
04:44
democrats almost everywhere
04:46
and there’s just this combination of
04:48
things that you look at out there
04:50
and it means well perhaps not a
04:52
landslide in
04:53
like compared to president reagan’s
04:55
second election but
04:57
still a landslide landslide i mean we
04:59
could be talking
05:00
40 states and
05:04
people are pissed i mean people are
05:05
tired of this crap we never be lied to
05:07
if you listen to any of joe biden’s uh
05:10
you know he just he’s unintelligible and
05:12
says the same stuff repeats the same
05:13
stuff
05:14
he’s memorized like five different
05:16
speeches and just kind of
05:17
keeps saying the same things over and
05:19
over that’s he’s at his limit now
05:22
what’s important about that right now
05:24
first of course you know i think we can
05:25
all
05:26
be quite confident that trump will win
05:28
but
05:29
beyond that then behind the scenes all
05:32
these other people recognize it too
05:34
and uh so you have antifa and you have
05:37
black lives
05:38
matter and you have these extremists on
05:39
the left
05:41
out of the democratic party and these
05:42
groups that i’ve mentioned all
05:44
see that this is probably what’s coming
05:46
so i don’t think they would riot if
05:48
if biden won i think they would be
05:50
relatively quiet
05:51
but i think when trump wins they’re
05:53
going to go absolutely ballistic
05:54
and do everything that they can do to
05:56
put people in the streets and claim
05:58
again once again you know it’s a russian
06:00
plan it’s false trump didn’t really win
06:02
whatever they’ll do whatever they can do
06:03
whatever they think will stick they’ll
06:05
try and we’ve already seen in the news a
06:07
lot of things with
06:08
with shipments coming in of weapons that
06:11
have
06:12
that have been picked up although i
06:13
haven’t seen a lot of news on that
06:14
lately but
06:15
uh money coming in and antifa is
06:17
preparing in
06:19
south carolina and they’re preparing for
06:21
portland and they’re preparing in all
06:23
these cities
06:24
my prediction again on this is going to
06:26
be that antifa
06:28
and kind of the lead role but with
06:30
support from a lot of these other
06:31
like-minded groups like black lives
06:33
matter
06:35
are in partnership going to
06:38
cooperation and partnership are going to
06:40
riot in as many cities as they can
06:43
and i think they’re going to make an
06:44
effort to go to also some of the smaller
06:46
towns out there
06:47
in america and make everybody pay in
06:50
essence for this election
06:52
and i think they have hopes of of
06:54
usurping
06:55
the u.s and kind of taking over somehow
06:57
in this with
06:58
you know figuring that there’ll be a
07:00
popular uprising to support them and so
07:02
on now
07:03
on the other side of that there’s a lot
07:05
of rumblings about this
07:07
from other people not promoting it
07:09
merely
07:10
discussing what i hear and
07:13
some of those rumblings are talking
07:14
about people giving the president you
07:16
know a week or two
07:17
to do this you know there was a case the
07:19
other day uh of a marine that got
07:21
attacked and killed by
07:23
these uh antifa guys and
07:27
you know and antifa thinks they’re tough
07:31
but let me say i mean there’s there’s no
07:33
such thing as an ex-marine
07:35
and you know there’s there’s former
07:37
marines and
07:39
you know that’s a fairly tight group
07:42
and they’re somebody that are
07:46
as a group hated and despised by antifa
07:49
who’s perfectly willing to
07:50
you know gang up on him and beat him to
07:52
death or shoot him in the back of the
07:53
head that sort of thing
07:55
but nobody’s fighting back on that score
07:58
and
07:59
the the noises that are starting to be
08:01
made out there
08:02
are that there are groups that are
08:04
looking at all this going
08:05
you know there’s only so much more of
08:07
this we’re going to tolerate
08:09
and then they’ll start to fight back in
08:11
certain areas some of the people
08:12
funding this stuff some of the
08:14
leadership of it
08:16
things like that these guys don’t know
08:18
what tough is
08:19
and some of these groups that don’t like
08:22
murders and violence and mayhem in the
08:24
streets if they fight back now this is
08:26
vigilantism as i said i’m not
08:28
suggesting that’s what should be done
08:31
merely that there are groups considering
08:33
it now
08:34
but i think if this violence goes into
08:36
the streets if antifa
08:38
antifa is going to have this violence in
08:40
the streets
08:42
the question is is the president going
08:43
to take steps to stop it
08:46
he will stop it i think where he can but
08:49
he is faced with problems in certain
08:51
regions that are controlled by the
08:52
democrats those regions that are
08:54
controlled by the democrats then
08:56
what will happen and i think you’re
08:58
going to start to see if antifa goes to
09:00
the streets and beats up and murders
09:01
people
09:02
i think you’re going to have the other
09:03
side who doesn’t like being beat up and
09:05
murdered
09:06
go defend themselves in essence and
09:07
they’ll fight back and disappear some of
09:09
these guys
09:10
and i think that’s if that happens which
09:13
i
09:13
hope it does not but if that’s what
09:16
happens
09:17
i think antifa is going to have its eyes
09:18
open by
09:21
you know kind of what all is out there
09:23
that they’re not anticipating
09:24
they’re i think they they the left these
09:27
these marxist-leninist groups
09:29
always operate in this bubble and this
09:31
is something i’ve worked against these
09:32
groups for many decades
09:34
one of the things you always find is
09:35
they operate in these little echo
09:36
chambers and they
09:37
teach this stuff and bring in new excuse
09:40
me
09:42
new recruits and they live in this
09:44
little echo chamber and they all
09:46
think you know one of the refrains you
09:48
hear out of all these groups for for
09:50
40 50 years is there’s going to be a
09:53
popular uprising
09:54
to support us and we will be the
09:56
vanguard of the people and blah blah
09:57
blah blah blah it’s the
09:58
usual crapolo from the left that when
10:00
they get into these groups
10:02
that’s where antifa is at that’s where
10:03
black lives matter is at
10:05
and that’s where many of the democratic
10:06
politicians are at and so they’re going
10:08
to have all of that support there but
10:10
that’s not where the people are at
10:11
which is why trump is going one of the
10:13
reasons trump is going to win and win
10:15
big
10:15
so i fear for that that there’s going to
10:19
be
10:19
like it’s not i don’t even know how to
10:22
describe it exactly but you’ll see an
10:24
element of vigilantism only to stop the
10:27
violence
10:28
when the violence stops they would stop
10:30
so
10:32
i fear fact for all of this that we’re
10:33
going to start to see some
10:35
tit for tat you kill one of our people
10:37
kill 10 years and
10:38
the groups that are quietly out there
10:42
hoping the president does something if
10:43
they move
10:45
they’ll just wipe out antifa i mean
10:47
they’ll just be dead
10:49
so like i said that isn’t what i hoped
10:52
for they need to go to jail be arrested
10:54
and convicted and and spend the rest of
10:57
their life in jail for
10:58
trying to use the government and
11:00
violence to the streets and murders and
11:02
mayhem and pillaging and uh all these
11:05
things that they’re doing they need to
11:06
go to jail for the rest of their lives
11:08
for that
11:08
uh but let’s hope that these mayors and
11:11
these governors that are in these
11:12
areas stop them and bring in federal
11:15
troops if needed but use the police to
11:17
stop
11:17
these guys and then also any of this
11:20
these connections that are between
11:21
these local police departments like is
11:24
there anybody that thinks
11:25
antifa and the portland police don’t
11:28
have a good cozy relationship
11:30
well you know i think it’d be silly not
11:32
to think so
11:34
it’s difficult not to look at this at
11:36
vigilantism
11:38
often in general but certainly in this
11:39
case the same way you’d look at
11:42
antibodies and white blood cells and
11:44
killer t
11:45
cells i mean no one likes to see the
11:48
result of an infection but
11:49
it’s certainly better than an infection
11:52
that’s right
11:53
and yeah i mean that’s it i’m i’m you
11:55
know like i said i’m not it’s not
11:57
something i’m encouraging or want to see
11:59
happen
12:00
but if if if i don’t want unchecked
12:03
violence in the streets either
12:05
and uh who’s causing the problem and
12:07
it’s
12:08
which is the like the example you were
12:10
giving there the viral infection
12:12
um i think that’s an apt metaphor so
12:16
you know i let’s hope it doesn’t come to
12:18
that let’s hope that these uh
12:20
mayors and governors uh will start to
12:23
support the people of the united states
12:24
of america and stop these
12:26
radical groups from doing whatever they
12:28
want in the street
12:29
and if if that can be stopped then i
12:31
think everybody will go home happy if it
12:32
can’t be stopped
12:33
then i think they’ve got some problems
12:35
well i’m not to mention all
12:36
what what what certainly looked to be
12:39
the soros
12:40
um elected district attorneys that have
12:44
been doing a catch and release
12:46
with all of these anti-rioters and
12:48
insurgents
12:50
you know that’s going to be a powerful
12:52
incentive for vigilantes
12:54
since the legal system has been so
12:55
corrupted in these democrat states
12:57
brad thank you very much for that it’s
12:59
something to be really
13:00
pay attention to and i think people
13:02
should plan their routes
13:04
home carefully for the week or two after
13:06
the election agreed yeah if you’re in
13:08
uh in um an area that’s had any riots at
13:11
all
13:12
go away on you know the night before the
13:14
elections and uh
13:15
i’ll be doing by the way i’ll be doing
13:17
live election coverage
13:18
in uh for for canada this time
13:21
