This is Dan capless and welcome to today's online podcast edition of The Dan Caplis Show. Please be sure to give us a five star rating if you'd be so kind, and to subscribe, download, and listen to the show every single day on your favorite podcast platform. The Truth will Prevail and it led to one of the most enjoyable evenings of my lifetime because the debate itself, right, I mean, you knew right from the jump it was going to be a great night. And I see, Ryan, you got a text
on your great earlier show. What do you think life was like in Dan Kaplis's house after the debate? Because I said, yesterday my wife and I were going to watch on separate floor. She was going to be in our bedroom, the kitchen, middle level would be empty, and then I'd be in the cave. And it was maybe three minutes into the debate, three minutes into the debate when she texted me and said it's over. Wow, and listen. She despises Trump with the passion I think he's one of the
greatest presidents we've ever had on policy. See, but yeah, three minutes into the debate she texts me it's over. So the rest of the debate was fun. We actually got to get together during the debate and kind of
hang out. Really yeah, because it was clearly after three minutes. I mean, my wife is an extraordinarily smart, reasonable person, and it was obvious after three minutes that as much as she despises Trump, Joe Biden cannot be president of the United States. So we had a really delightful evening together watching the debate, and then I watched the post game alone and it was you know, I taped MSNBC and I watched CNN, then I watched all
of MSNBC because it was so enjoyable because look at the reality is the left lies. The left lies through their teeth. They lie in their sleep, they lie when they're dreaming, they lie when they get up, they lie all day, they lie all night, and the left media just lies. And to watch them last night, to watch them last night have to come clean and admit. It was one of those really rich moments and very good for America, right, very good for America. I believe that all of
us make mistakes, all of us can fix our mistakes. Maybe some of the Left will start to fix their mistakes. But also part of this goes back to what I've been talking about for a very long time on this show, which and leading up to the debate. Ryan, I think it proved a number of my points. But by the way, where are my tomahawks? I thought there'd be a little girls set up in hear the flyer at
fire would be raging, there'd be two or three tomahawks on there. Because we've been betting for a long time that Doug been betting a tomahawk that Jim Biden will not be the nominee. Been saying that for over a year. But I've also been telling you leading up to the debate, Hey, Tapper and Bash would be relatively fair because a lot of reasons, but one of them is CNN wants Biden out, MSNBC wants Biden out. The left wants Biden out, and they've wanted him out for some time, so they were
all ready to pounce last night. They were all ready to pounce if Biden flopped, which he did. And then we'll talk about Trump, who I think rose to the occasion, had remarkable discipline, and I give him an a plus for discipline, a plus for immigration answers are very very strong abortion answers, we go down the list. Could he have done better in some areas, sure, but you know what, none of us are ever perfect. I think he had a tremendous performance last night, but obviously Biden flopped,
and so the left was ready to pounce. I don't think that was spontaneous last night, Ryan. I don't think they just thought, oh my goodness, this is so bad, and then we've got all these genuine reactions to the horror. I think they were ready to pounce because they want him gone. Let me give you, I'd say, exhibit A. Jen Saki has been so intellectually dishonest and so arrogant and so dismissive of those critical of Biden and of conservatives, while all along she was waiting for just the right
moment to get rid of him. By the way, check out my twitter at dan Kaplis have this great little graphic of the vultures circling Joe Biden, and it's a lot of fun. That's at dan Kaplis. Here's Jen Saki. Well, I've been listening to what you all have been saying, and
I don't think we should sugarcoat this. This was not the debate performance that the Biden campaign team wanted or needed from this debate, in part because they wanted to do this debate as early as they did to change this up right, to bring the Joe Biden who is at the State of the Union to the debate stage. That's not the Joe Biden who should about the debate stage. Yeah, and there are so many different indications of what's going on,
and it was planned. They were ready for this. CNN actually fact checking Joe Biden and pretty aggressively, and they could have done even more than this. He said he's the only president in a while who didn't have any troops dying anywhere in the world. Troops have, of course, died on his watch. He said he's put in a fifteen dollars per shot cap on insulin
and Medicare is a thirty five dollars a month cap. He said, it's a two hundred dollars cap on overall drug spending in Medicare, it's two thousand dollars a year. He said the border now has fewer crossings than when Trump was in office. That's generally not true, he said, or at least strongly suggested. Unemployment was that fifteen percent when he took office, it was actually six point four. He said, Trump's want Trump wants to get rid
of Social Security. Trump doesn't. He said billionaires pay eight point two percent in taxes. It's much higher. He said Trump told Americans to inject bleach amid COVID. We know Trump made foolish comments about scientists studying disinfectant injection, but didn't frame it as advice to people. And Biden said the Border Patrol endorsed him. No, it's union supported the border bill he'd supported, never
endorsed him himself. Yeah, And he didn't even get to the six handicap, right, He didn't even get to Biden claiming, And if you don't know golf, a six handicap means basically you usually shoot six over power. Biden, from the swing I've seen is probably six over power on every hole.
So they didn't even get to the six handicap. And then Chris Wallace, Chris Wallace, who did a tremendous disservice to America when he moderated a presidential debate last time around and openly aggressively covered for Biden and tried to defeat Trump himself. Even Chris Wallace had to admit this last night. But what accounts for someone with so much experience, doing so much preparation, and this
the outcome. Honestly, I think the question answers itself. He wasn't capable of doing any better than he did, had he prepared to not go over the two minutes that he was incapable tonight on the biggest of stages that he sawt he in effect dictated, and with all of that preparation, he was incapable of doing better than he was. And you can't come back from that. You can't be on a stage where tens of millions of Americans watched you and come up empty. And that's what he did tonight. Boy, that
is so true. And listen, there are those who saying, but you know what, the Democrats don't have a choice. It's all up to Biden. They can't get rid of Biden. Oh yes, they can get rid of Biden. And I'm going to break that down the very concrete, specific ways they can and will get rid of Biden. As I said going into the debate, you know, if Biden had a good night, and they have always been able to get him better than expected, but they couldn't this
time, which just tells you how rapid the decline is. If Biden had a good night, you know, he'd get replaced, probably just before the convention or at the convention. If he had a night like last night, it will happen much sooner. And it is going to happen much sooner now. So we'll talk about the mechanics of that, how that can actually play out if Biden is not willing to go. And here's a question for you as we head into the next break, do you want Biden to stay or
go? More particularly if you're like me and you really want Trump to win for the good of America, Well, do you want Biden to stay the nominee or do you want him to be replaced? State five five four zero five eight two five five the number you can text d an five seven seven three nine, And as I tweeted today, you can see it at Dan Kaplis. Know if you listen to the show, then you've for over a
year that Joe Biden's not going to be the nominee. But we really need to focus today on the twenty fifth Amendment because America, you, your family, your neighbors, all of us are in more danger in America right now than any time since the Cuban missile crisis, because evil in the world Gee
putin Kim Jong Oun, et cetera. The Ietolas, Evil in the world saw that last night too, and they know they have two hundred and six point five days, two hundred and six point five days to impose their will on the world before Joe Biden is out of office, which makes this the most dangerous time since the Cuban missile crisis. So you tell me this as well, d A N five seven seven three nine. Should the twenty fifth Amendment be invoked? You're on the Dan Kapla Show, and now back to
the Dan Kaplas Show podcast. I too, was on the phone throughout much of the debate with Obama world people with Democrats, with people who are political operatives, with campaign operatives. My phone really never stopped buzzing throughout, and the universal reaction was somewhere approaching panic. The people who were texting with me were very concerned about President Biden seeming extremely feeble, seeming extremely weak, and that is Jory read how fun that was to watch last night. Now,
I have one humble request for you today. Let's not make this show about me? Okay, Ryan, can we agree on that this show should not be about me? Now? I understand I've been taking tremendous abuse on this show for over a year saying wait a second, I don't even want to discuss any scenario that has Joe Biden as the Democrat nominee because it's fantasy, it's nonsense, it's not going to happen. And so, as much as I appreciate your interest in calling and texting to say, boy Dan, you
were right, let's just make this about something other than me today. Eight five five four zero five eight two five five the number I would just like to note for the record, you know, almost a thirty year track record on air, phenomenal batting average, that that's not meant to self credify. It's just meant to make the point that inn that I I am useful to
you. I know how this stuff works. Now. The big downside of listening to this show is it takes the suspense out of things, right, Yeah, because you've known for over a year now that this day was coming and Biden would not be the nominee. By the way, it is short of Joe Biden making the public announcement. It just officially ended. Within the last twenty seconds. New York Times editorial board has called for Biden to leave. Wow, that's it. That's that. Now to ends that a couple
things. Yeah, I've never felt worse about my bet with you than I did after watching that last night, and Kelly was consoling me. But point two, you can't spike the football yet. You haven't scored the touchdown. You're not in the end zone quite yet. It's not there, hasn't happened, still has to happen. I do not concede. Did you see listening? I did? Oh, okay, I did? Okay? All right?
Then you know denial is not just a river in Egypt. Just to thought, I'm going to l go my way through just a river in Egypt. Let's go to a truly great American, that is Colonel kirk Dale and Parker, Colorado. Colonel welcome to the Dan Kapla show. Well, thank you very much, sir. I'll go to respond. You had mentioned a couple of weeks ago to possibly give a call in the day after the debate off. Yes, sir, yes, sir, thank you. What are
you thinking? I think it was Trumpeter's best. I worried that I could be fair with in the minutes right at the first when I was questioning my own judgment. Was Biden as much a disaster as I was seeing it was? Trump was totally on point as I was hearing the appearance of the two right it to start was a start contrast. Yes, Biden shuffled out looking salo and dull. Trump's complexion and the air and gait were just excellent.
On the moderator's total surprise. I think Keeper and Bush we are bash were totally uh, the best we've seen on any network, and they could have not been any fair or well framing in their questions. That's really impressed me. It's quite a deal. And with then the excuse that's right when they got in to debate, I to look back when I did exactly what a presidential debate is intended to do. It rarely bared the weaknesses and strengths by
allowing and not interrupting either candidate, was disruptive personal moderator inputs. That was good. I thought some of Trump's comments about how bad a job Biden had done just surprised Biden, as if he had never heard any criticism on any of these points. I thought that Trump was able to ship his lip when
it needed these. It was. There was that one point when Biden was trying to make comments on the border and he got so bald up he said I and Trump, trying to respond it to it, said I don't know what he said. I don't think he knew what he said. And Colonel, let me ask you this question. I'm going to go play that sound
and do you think the twenty fifth Amendment should be invoked? And it's a question we're about to get to a lot of other callers on as well, But do you think at this point he should be removed from office by his cabinet and the vice president and not then confirmed by Congress. Academically, I would say absolutely it should be invoked. Personally, I would love to be able to see and stay in there and get absolutely crowds. Colonel, appreciate
the call, Thank you, my friend. The total initiative relative to what we're going to do with more border patrol and more President Trump, I really don't know what he said at the end of this, and I don't think he knows what he said either. Look, we had the safest border in the history of our country. The board. All he had to do was leave it. All he had to do is leave it. And that's what the Colonel was referring to. And as I predicted over and over again,
took a lot of abuse for it. Bash and Tapper were much more fair than we've seen before. And I think the reason and for that, in addition to self interest, was CNN wants Biden out. The left wants Biden out, and they did before last night, and now they're pouncing on his failure. And if you just joined us other than Biden making the formal announcement, it's all but over. New York Times editorial board just a short time
ago call for him to leave the race. He cannot overcome that. Carly and Hiland's ranch Welcome to the show, Hi, Dan, I concur with the colonel. Half of me wants him to stay in the other half for the country, I think the twenty fifth Amendment should be invoked. Like now, which half's going to win? Pardon me, which half of you is going to win this? Russell, I don't know which is lad for your
tests. Yeah, I also wanted to say during the time, may I make a suggestion it should be invoked, even though it would make it tougher for Trump to win. The twenty fifth Amendment should be invoked because we're all in danger every day. He's in the White House more day, and I think Trump can take anybody that they'd want to offer. I really do. I think he was so good last night. I give him an a President
Trump. But I also want to say, I think Bash and Tapper they had to revamp their questions somewhat because of what happened earlier in the week on CNN when that whenever she is cut off, President Trump's all interesting, interesting, you know, we said at the time, Yeah, that would make
it even harder for them to go rough on him. Great point there, Carly, and that same anchor, that same anchor, Katie her who had cut off the Trump's Casey Hunt thank you, had cut off the Trump spokeswoman, as you know last night, was calling for Biden to leave the race, and well, if not that she was highly critical of him, highly Hi. I agree with you. I do think the twenty fifth Amendment shick because this is for the good of this century, and I have no fear
of anyone they would put up against President Trump. He was like a bull walking on that stage last night? Does he beat Michelle Obama? Yep, okay, okay. I hope you're right. Obama is not going to run. Dan Hey, check out at Dan Caplis on Twitter, Carly and send it to all your friends. Thank you, lineser Jam, I want to get everybody on music. We'll just pay a bill here and come back to
our fiery lines. If you've on Carly's line, it's eight five five four zero five eight two five five the number you can text Dan da N five seven seven three nine. And the next segment as well, we'll work in a drop with Dick Adams, who has seen a lot. I doubt he's ever seen anything like last night. You're on the Dankpla Show. You're listening to the Dan Kaplas Show podcast. You answered every question Joe Biden at the
post rally, you answered every question. It was literally people have said kindergarten. No. It was like a pre k kid coming home right and they've got this stuff. It's all over the piece of paper and you can't you know, like somebody had a stroke or something and you just say, wow, you stayed within the lines. I mean, wow, Joe, you answered every question. You answered every question eight five five were zero five eight
two five five the number? Hey, uh, if you just joined us, it's officially all over now except Biden making the formal announcement New York Times editorial board calling on Biden to drop out. He cannot overcome that donors will follow that not each and every donor, but the donors will drive him out of the race if nothing else. The one that's not going to Dan, it's the question I have for you. And the person you just played is
doctor Jill Biden Evil? Is she a bad person? Oh? We can't say that because listen, if she's the one keeping him in this race, yes, I wouldn't say evil. I would say she's an abuser. Yes, if she's the one keeping him in the race. But we can't know
that. This could be Biden himself. Biden has always been so incredibly self centered, so insecure, so angry, and and so this could all be Joe Biden, and she could just be trying to stand by her man, no matter how deranged he is. So yeah, what's he talking about me? No? I want David, I'm not going to another caller, David,
were you talking about me? Let's play Congress. By the first two years you had a run out of Obama had to run out of the first two years David spend on Obamacare. Hey, David Trump did his first two years, which is big David. Sorry to call you while you're busy, but yeah, yeah, let's listen in. This could be interesting. Hey David, you're talking about me? Is he on another show? Is the two shows? He couldn't be. There's not another show on that talks about
this stuff. I'm not locally, You're right, but I mean he's talking to some buddy. Yeah, yeah, but but he couldn't have used the S word on any other show. So I think he's I think he's talking to a friend. LeAnn in Denver. You're on the Dane Caapitlo Show, and Dick Wadhams join us at some point, we hope here as well. Hey Lenn, how you doing? Hi? Good? Thank you? Dan. I so far I still disagree with you, and I'll tell you why.
For one thing, I think that the left agenda that's managing everything has a certain thing that they want Biden to fulfill, and so he does that for them. And so the other thing is I do agree with Ryan that it hasn't happened yet and he would have to withdraw, and as I understand it, as an MVY, doesn't then at the with the delegates, there's four thousand, and he needs at least there needs to be at least two thousand who decide they want to put somebody else in there. It's really not
that easy to do, and so I don't. I won't believe it until I see it, and I'm still I still don't think it'll happen. And if I'm wrong, I'll do a Maya Coppa and call back and say, boy, was I wrong. It is incredibly, incredibly easy to do Lynn. It's easier. I've got a piece of peanut butter and apple here and I'm going to eat it during the break, and that will be easier to accomplish than getting Biden out of this race. I don't know why everybody makes
this out to be so hard. What's what's so hard about it? He can't move. Here's what it looks like what we're watching unfold. My lord. I feel like I'm in the twilight zone. I spent the last year saying, Okay, Biden's not going to be the nominee. Clearly now he's not. The entire left, almost the entire publicly turned down him last night. The New York Times editorial board minutes ago called for him to leave.
And you still think he's going to be the nominee. So if I was willing to answer a question with the question, I would flip it on you and say, well, explain to me, what does it look like if he stays. But here's you asked a fair question. Here's what it looks like if he leaves. Okay, what it's going to come down to is he is going to voluntarily leave. And if sitting here today he doesn't want
to voluntarily leave, he will be made to want to voluntarily leave. And it will be either delegates, no, we will never even get close to that. It will be first of all, it will be what we've already seen. That's the critical first step, the left turning against him. And remember, the most valuable arm of the left is not these billionaire donors, it's the media. The media has now turned on him, lock, Stock, and Barrel. He cannot win without the media. He's been mortally wounded
by the media at this point. Even if they all become Jock sniffers again tomorrow. So number one the media. Number two the donors. Next step is the media starts to unleash the stories they should have been reporting for years about his corruption, and he will leave long before then because he's such a selfish little man. Alway's ever cared about is his miserable legacy, and his legacy right now will be thoroughly destroyed by the media if he insists on hanging
on. What does Ryan say? What does Ryan say? This is like? This is like okay, Joe, Joe, listen, you can't throw rocks through windows? What does mom say? No? Because you're I'm just curious because I know that he I'm saying, I'm in camp. I'm in camp Brian right now where we'll see it hasn't happened, and it is fascinating me. Link. Can you hold on because I do want to continue the conversation, if you would, please hold on. I don't want to cut
that shirt because I'm fascinated. I'm fascinated by a mindset that could be ignoring everything that's going on and somehow thinking that Biden will hold on. Whether it's Ryding's mindset or yours, it's like when Tim Tebow Dick Wadams remember this remembers this welcome Dick. Remember Tim Tebow's quarterback. And he was succeeding at a historic level for a young quarterback, let alone one. It's a bad team. And all these experts who had said Tebow will be an NFL failure kept
insisting he was failing. Even he was winning. Even after he beat Pittsburgh in a monumental playoff game against the best defense in the NFL, the experts were still saying he could not be an NFL quarterback. I feel like we're in one of those moments right now. Hi, Dick. Wow, that's a great analogy. Dan, How are you doing. I'm doing great, Dan, Yeah, you too? You too? What do you make of last night? He was pathetic and you could tell when he walked out on
the stage he was not He shouldn't have been there. Yep. So I don't have to everybody saw the same thing. I mean, he is. He needs to leave. And I'll tell you that you've been talking about that New York Times and ye an editorial calling for him to withdraw. That is a devastating blow to him. That the New York Times editorial page is the
voice of the Eastern liberal establishment, and he cannot. I agree with you, Dan that that is that is kind of the tipping point, which had a lot of tipping points since last night, but that one truly is how fast does this happen? Well, I still think that there's going to be resistance from Gil Biden and other members of Biden's family. They don't want to
give up that cushy white house gig air force. I think it's some but I think at some point she is going to come to the realization that they're on an island, and she will she will be able to talk him into the reality of what they're what they're facing. But it might not happen for a few days. I mean, we're going into holiday week, but who knows. But I agree with you it's it's the days are are numbered for
him. Who is the best the Dems can put up? Well, I don't know who the best is. I think the there are some obvious ones who would probably want to succeed him, but mainly number one being Gavin Newsom California. He's he's hungry for this. Gretchen Whitmer of Michigan. I think would definitely be somebody who would do it. I mean, Pete Budage has certainly not lost his presidential ambition. He's been kind of a miserable Secretary of
Transportation, but he's still got the ambition. But that kind of leads the stand to a base. A couple out, Dick, who else would you name? Well? Hillary Clinton, Michelle Obama? You think Hillary has you think Hillary doesn't want it? Yeah, I don't think Hillary. I think there might be an attempt to draft him. Uh, Michelle Obama, but I don't think she would do it. Can you hang on? Can you hang on and join us? Okay, Dick, so join us on the
other side. Everybody in the line, please stay because I can tell you're going to be fascinating and I want to get you on air eight five five for zero five A two five five the number amazing text today as you would expect, Dan five seven seven three nine when we come back, fast moving developments this afternoon. Clearly it's over for Biden. It's only a matter of time. Who do you think the most dangerous Democrat would be in the race,
the last person you want to see him put up against Trump? You're on the Dan Kapla Show. And now back to the Dan Kaplass Show podcast. You answered every question. You answered every question. Hello, the bar has gotten eight five five for zero five A two five five the number text d A N five seven seven three nine. Great callers are very fortunate to have Dick Wadhams with us. Dick, was this the low point or was
there a different one? Making sure that we're able to make every single solitary person eligible for what I've been able to do with the UH, with the COVID, I should be with dealing with everything we have to do with UH. Look if we finally beat medicare, thank you, President Biden. President Trump was right, he did beat medicare, beat it to death, and he's destroying medicare. My lord, did you have a favorite moment? It had to be that one. And and I think that Trump's reetwards just kind
of summed it up. This is a guy who didn't even know he almost didn't know where he was or what doing right And yeah, and I thought the Trump comment was right on. And obviously we have the twenty fifth Amendment conversation to be had. But but Dick Democrats, the strongest Democrats out there, who might realistically enter the race. And I know we probably disagree on
whether Michelle Obama might realistically enter the race. I do ask people to go to at Dan Kaplis on Twitter this really cool graphic we made of these vultures circling Biden and the heads of Newsome, Hillary Clinton, President Harris, and of course Michelle Obama. It's just says it all. But of those you think may realistically enter the race, who would be the hardest for Trump to beat? Well, first of let me say Michelle Obama would be the strongest
and most dangerous candidate to run bart. I mean I didn't. I really don't take it seriously. But having said that, you know, I think, yeah, probably Greshen Whitmer. I mean, she's obviously a woman. She's been re elected in Michigan, which is one of the swing states. I think Gavin Newsom just comes across the way too. Swect. I just think she would be a better candidate than he would. So of the two
of them, I think she would be the best candidate. See. I think whoever they put up, unless it's Harris, there's going to be an immediate surge of support because of the contrast between the obviously feeble Biden, and now you're going to have somebody who at least is much younger, who is
actually physically healthy. There's going to be this breadth of fresh air, and I think there's going to be at least a temporary surge in the polls for the Democrat, whoever that is. But Dan, I'd say this too, say Biden withdrew from the race tomorrow and recently goes under the to the sunset. The Democrats have a huge problem with Kamala Harris. She is going to
want this bad way. She has a loyal constituency in the Democratic Party, and I will say there would probably be a big fight on the floor of the convention with a lot of those delegates will be for her. So they and I think smart Democrats are gonna know that she's worse than by It's possible if my microphone would go down that low, I would get on my knees right now and I would I would pray to God that their nominee is Kamala
Harris. I don't see how she could win this race. Oh, I know she wouldn't win, she wouldn't win the presidency, but I could see her being the nominee though, Dan, I really could Yeah, yeah, Wow, It's a blessing to live in interesting times. Right in Dick quoadums if you're new to the state. Dick has won a lot of big races here. He'd beat Tom Dashel as well up there, and he's seen an awful lot. But I'm guessing nothing quite like last night or this moment we're
about to live through together. No. I mean, Dan, you and I had watched a lot of debates over the years, you know, at presidential debates and then senate and governor debates here in Colorado and elsewhere. But I'll say that was that was extraordinary last night and it truly I mean the words story is thrown around way too much, yeah, in politics, but that was last night. That will be written about and analyzed for decades and
a pivot point right. It has dramatically shifted events, and it brought my wife and I together. We've been together in every other way, but we can't watch a debate in the same room. But three minutes into the debate, she came down to the basement and just said it's over. And she despises Trump, she despises Trump, but she just said that man can't be president. Biden can't be president. He's not functional. No, and and I think Democrats to oblige about him for all these months and years though,
yeah, he can run a marathon. And the briefing, give lord, well, Dick, we got to get you in here at least once a week. We're about to head out to the wildest, wildest stretch we've ever had. Well, thank you, my friend of a great weekend. Thank you. Take care of that is Dick Wadhams. Go to Eric in Denver. You're on the dan Kaplis. She'll welcome. I dan ahead and take y'all speaker. Okay, you're great American And I have two points real quick.
Yes, I told Kelly you're a great carlscreen and Rot producer's old. You are real steak dinner. Thank you for you're an honest man. I said that, Dick, I mean Biden wasn't gonna show. Yeah, and you know that what disappointed me out of all seriousness that Trump didn't mention October the seventh, my brother. You know, Oh, I thought he did. I thought he did a few times. He didn't. Yeah, he said that never would have happened if he was president in Israel, should be
allowed to finish the job. Eric, thank you for the call. That guy could make a billion dollars with his voice. David and Boulder, everybody else eight five five four zero five eight two five five text d A N five seven seven three nine lots of amazingly fun sound of the left last night losing and the big development of the day which happened within the last hour and pretty much seals it. Biden will soon be gone. You're on the Dan Kapla Show.
