Dealing with Election Loss

Trump is gone? How do we deal with the Arctic frost stuff? How can it be that they didn't do anything we can send them to prison for. We even have historical things like the most lopsided invasion in history. And someone wants to know why I don't take phone calls. Oh, that is so much more coming up tonight on the world famous Jesse Kelly Show. But I wanted to actually

begin here with this one oracle the airwaves. After Tuesday's election results, Donald Trump said the reason for the election results was because the name Trump wasn't on the ballot. And I agree. I'm reading the book under seeds so on and so forth talks about the MAGA movement. It seems to me that any member of the Trump family could be elected as president. What say you should we work for Eric Trump as president? All right? So let me put it this way. My sons. You know, I'm

a father. I have two sons. I am adamant that they will work with their hands. Well, for James, starting about now, he's done with his sports season for a little bit. He's got time. Now it's time to get a job, and a physical job of some kind. Don't care whether you're pounding nails, doing concrete work, electrical plumbing something, and the heat and the cold, work with your hands. Do I want him? Do I demand that he do that for living the rest of his life. No, that's

not my call. He's going to grow up and make his own decisions, and that's not necessarily my desire. I want him to be a good man, provides for his wife and his kids. That's what I want for them. But I want them to work with their hands now, the way I did for really most of my adult life. Why what is the purpose? Well, I need my sons to learn what a hard day's work is, whether or not they do that the rest of their lives, whatever they end up doing, maybe it'll be something with computers,

maybe one of them will do this. I need them to understand one the working man, the working woman, long hours, heat, cold, discomfort, and understanding that and learning that will benefit them the rest of their lives. Essentially, I need to give them the fundamentals of what a hard day of work is. What's this that to do with Donald Trump in the future of the Republican Party. Well, Donald Trump is an unbelievably unique figure, unique figure. Anybody who's followed politics for

any length of time knows this. Love or hate, we just haven't seen anything like him. Somebody who just speaks off the cuff the way he speaks, somebody who will openly talk about sometimes things you love, sometimes things you hate. Sometimes you want him to shut up. Sometimes he makes you stand up and cheer. But he is unapologetically who he is. Bombastic, charismatic, just different, very very different than what we've known in politics. And because of that, he

has enamored the American people on really both sides. Most of the people on the right love him, vote for him, have voted for him multiple times, and they see so much of politics through the Trump lens, and most people on the left vice versa, think he's the Antichrist. Everything he does is wrong, everything ties back to him. Okay, you got it, but no matter what, it's undeniable. The political world for a decade has revolved around Donald Trump.

His first election, it was Trump Trump. No one talked about Hillary Clinton. She was hardly mentioned in the news. Trump Trump, Trump, Trump, Trump, Trump's the best, Trump's the devil. Trump's the best, Trump's the devil. Even in the election, they stole, Joe Biden goes out steals the election, they walk into the White House, Joe Biden four years made it all about Trump Trump and magamember maga this and ul traum maga and mega maga. How they were clearly

pull testing how to mago this and magad that. Now back to being all about Trump. We're twenty five years in, We're a quarter of the way in to the twenty first century, and Donald Trump is the seminal figure on the planet. Think about that, the figure on planet Earth for a quarter of the twenty first century as our president, Donald Trump. Now that can be good, it can be wonderful, and it can also be bad. To the point of disaster.

Why when a guy like that leaves, when he's gone, figuring out how to move forward without that central figure, that sun where every thing revolves around him, figuring out how to move forward without that can be so so difficult for so many people. Maybe this is you, maybe it's not, Maybe you're more of an independent thinker. But for so many people on the right, this is Trump. But they don't have Republican signs. They have Trump signs.

They don't have Republican hats or their senator's hat or whatever. They have Trump hats. They make America great again hats. It's about Trump. I drive through Texas where I live in Texas. We just took a long road trip, not that long ago. You drive through rural Texas. There's not a single solitary, homemade sign for any Republican you can find anywhere in rural Texas. But you will see Donald Trump on billboards. You will see Donald Trump's name spray

painted on fences. He is the central figure. So after he leaves, yeves, surely we need another one, right, we have to have another one. Go get Eric, someone called Don the Don Junior, who I'd like a lot that you know, I know him, I like him a lot. But here's the problem with that. Donald Trump has become such a central figure that we we've lost sight of fundamentals. We've lost sight of so many of the things that work.

How is it we still have candidates running for governor who can't raise money, who don't go out and register voters. How is it that we are still lacking in so many of the basic fundamentals, the blocking and tackling that wins elections. You know how well having Trump there covered up a lot of those things. You know, you bring in Michael Jordan to your basketball team, you can get a little lax on. Maybe we don't need a point guard that's that great. Maybe we don't have to focus

on rebounding as much. We've got Michael Jordan, and you fall into this trap of Jordan this and Jordan that, and we won't get as many rebounds. Maybe don't we have the point guard, But Michael Jordan will pull it out in the end, He's Michael Jordan. But then Michael Jordan retires one day and you don't have a point guard and nobody can rebound, and you go on and lose almost every game in the season. I have voiced this to you before, and I'm voicing it to you

right now. I am concerned what happens to our movement for a while. We'll figure it out eventually. I am concerned what happens to our movement post Donald Trump. And this is from somebody who is very impressed with Jadie Vance. As I've told you about, this is not about the next guy, whoever that may be, whether it's Vance or the Santis, whoever it may be, it's not about them. There's certainly not a knock on them at all. We

have looked at Trump. We've looked too Trump for ten years, and now the very thought of not having a Trump on the ballot to motivate voters, well, let's go find another one. Get Ivanka out here, God forbid. But we don't need another Trump. If the America First Movement is only a Trump movement, it's going to die. It will not succeed because Donald Trump, as an incredible figure as he is, is just a man just like you and just like me. He's eighty years old, you ever take.

I don't know his exact age. I think he's seventy nine, but it's eighty years old. Donald Trump might die tonight heart attack or something like that. God forbid. Obviously, no, I don't want that. But we wake up tomorrow and there's no Trump. The America First Movement cannot die. We have to go back to fundamentals. We have to remember

and learn fundamentals. The future of the America First Movement cannot be dragging anybody with the name of Trump off the couch and throwing them up on stage, because it will fail. It will fail. It's doomed to failure if it's only a Trump movement. It has to be more. It has to be bigger than that. That is not the solution going forward. But we will talk a bit about the solution a little bit more in a moment. It is the Jesse Kelly Show on a magnificent Thursday,

a wonderful Thursday. I cannot get the smile off my face, chopping away at all these questions. Look, we'd suffered an election loss on Tuesday night, and people are looking around and they're hurting, and they're looking for explanations, and I'm kind of answering a question, do we need another Trump? People don't get motivated to vote when Trump's not on the ballot. How do we handle this. But this, this goes back to what I was talking about, how we

have to learn fundamentals again. Trump has driven so much motivation for so long that we have lost sight of fundamentals and in some in some cases, we never learned fundamentals. So I want to discuss this again. I talked to I touched on this a little bit. I think it was last night. It was last night about something that happened locally in my area. And this is going to sound very, very boring. Just stay with me for a

couple of minutes, believe it matters. We had elections in Texas on Tuesday, all kinds of amendments and things like that. But there were also these bonds, school bond things locally in many different jurisdictions here in the state. On my ballot, every one of these bonds had language, and I told

you about this yesterday in bold letters. The rest of the description of the bond was just typed out normally, but in bold, all capital letters, leading off everything on the ballot it said, and I quote, this is a tax increase. They shouted it at you. They were all defeated that had a big hand in it. They were all defeated people read that, you really don't read the rest of it. A nope, not taxing me anymore. Now, language on the ballot? Is that something you've ever thought

about considered? Who decides what language? Do you know when that language was decided for the ballot? Do you know when September one, twenty twenty five? Jewish producer Chris dug into it today dug up the actual date they decided on that language. Do you know there was activism behind getting that language on the ballot? Now, boy, wasn't that boring? That was like two minutes. Isn't that boring? Ballot language and school bonds? And who cares about that? Can't I

just go to a rally? But that's what wins elections, and if you don't do that, that's what loses elections. Georgia State ideally love Georgia. Had a rough night on Tuesday too, really rough night. Republican areas losing in Georgia. How can this be? Surely it's the economy. People are mad at Trump. Okay, well some of that stuff may be true, and we're going to talk about that in a moment. But I have a lot of friends in Georgia. Most of my Georgia friends did not even know there

was an election. The ones who did, they found out about it last minute and went and voted. The general public had no idea there were elections. Who's going to show up if no one knows the election is happening. Super motivated communists who hate Donald Trump and want to burn the country down, they will find out about it. They will show up. Normal Americans who don't want their country burnt down won't show up. Like I said last night, every race tells its own tale. So what happened there?

We didn't do blocking and tackling. We didn't raise money, organize, get out the vote, notify friends, family and neighbors. And this is the kind of thing and I'll touch on this actually in a little bit. This is the kind of thing that frustrates people like you. And it's totally understandable. I know it frustrates you because it frustrates me. I take the time I know about every election. It's very easy. I find out about the election. My wife and I

we dig in. We do some research, oftentimes a couple days beforehand, if we're not already working on the campaign. Which happens as well. But we dig in, we do the research. We not only show up at the polls. We tell friends. We tell the same thing you do. We do the same thing, and people who don't we get angry, we get frustrated. Don't you care? Why aren't

you involved? Why aren't you? You can beat your head against the wall and yell and scream at your normy neighbor who doesn't know and doesn't care, But all that's gonna do is stress you out. You're better off coming to a place and I'm pointing fingers at me. I'm better off coming to a place of acceptance that my normy neighbors who do love the country are never going to care like I care. They're never going to be involved like I am involved, and I have to be

their involvement. That is not fair, But you know how much I hate that word. Life isn't fair. You have a burden your neighbors don't have. Don't feel I should say. I wish they had the sense of duty you have. I wish they would get involved. I wish they would they don't. We have to drag them out. Why did we lose elections in Bucks County, Pennsylvania? Why do we lose elections in Jewel. Why did we lose here? Why did we lose there? We love to make these big

broad statements. We lost. Cousin blank sounds good on a bumper sticker. It's a very good headline, made a good tweet. But each in every candidate, each in every campaign, has its own story. We have got to now. We can't wait till twenty twenty eight. Now, I'm not saying you have to put your Trump had away, not at all. We have got to accept he's gone. You will never vote for Donald Trump ever. Again He's gone. We have to learn blocking and tackling now again, Now, what is

the blocking and tackling of elections? Working on campaigns, knocking on doors, phone banking, registering new voters, maybe donating money to a campaign. If you can't, maybe running for office yourself. The lay, non sexy things that don't get you on the news. That's what wins Donald Trump will not carry you to a single other election win period.

insane spending, which caused inflation. Now and maybe this describes you. Now, people aren't making it, they can't find a job, they can't make ends meet, and there's a lot of these people. Maybe this is you. And these people don't care about Ukraine, they don't they don't care about Israel, Hamas, they don't care about Venezuela, they don't care about the South China Sea.

They don't care, but they're not interested in it. When you are bleeding money, when you can't afford to get by, or maybe you're barely getting by, and you can't afford you know what, there is no there's no let's go out for Mexican food on Friday night because you don't have an extra ninety dollars laying around. People don't want to hear about any of the other things. They want life to become affordable. That's what I said. And by the way, the Trump administration knows is they're starting to

put up public statements. They're going to start focusing one hundred percent on affordability and domestically and things like that. Anyway, so back to the email. It makes me sad to even think about I'm a sixty six year old retired. I'm sixty six years old. I'm retired. I just had to cancel my cable and I love my TV, Jesse. I can't afford it anymore. I meet my friends once a month at a local restaurant. The rest of the time, I'm working in my small yard and taking long walks.

I'm content, but times are tough, Jesse. President Trump and Republicans need to focus on home. Thanks. I love the show. I listened to you on my last walk of the day. I love that. So I'm going to read you something. This came out from Fortune magazine. And this is something

that both parties are slowly becoming aware of. But the political party who figures out how to fix this, and we're going to talk about fixing it in a moment, the political party who figures out how to fix this is going to be the political party that dominates American leadership for years and years and years. Here it is. This is from Fortune magazine. Fifteen million more adults under the age of thirty five are living with their parents

compared to a decade ago, fifteen million. Compared to twenty fifteen, there are fifteen million more Americans living with their parents. Now you me, we could sit down over some cheddar Bay biscuits and we can argue or just discuss all night long the reasons for that. We could talk about that, there's no question. But here's the truth. That situation has to change. You know what. You know what, In fact, let's pause on that for a second. Let's go historically.

Do you know what spells impending doom for any and every society historically? Doom? It is it is the death of every society. You know, one of the main things if you have a large percentage of disaffected young men young men are aspirational, they are full of testosterone. They want a goal in life, and I know women are the same way. I'm just discussing a historical trend. Young Men need something to strive for, They need to believe

it's attainable, something to fight for. And if you ever find a place where your society has a bunch of young men who feel like society has left them, maybe they're listless, maybe they feel like things are hopeless, your society is in for huge, huge problems. So let's expand that and go back to what we were just talking about. We have legions, in legions and legions of young people now living with their parents because they can't find a good job, because inflation has gotten so bad. They can't

even afford an apartment. You most definitely can't afford a mortgage. The home affordability is in the toilet. This situation cannot continue or we're going to have big, big, big problems. And this situation is also intentional. Keep in mind, do not lose sight of the fact that the mass importation of foreigners to crowd Americans out of jobs, to make life more unaffordable for Americans, that has been intentional The entire idea behind it was taking America away from Americans.

And the point of that, of course, is, well, foreigners aren't going to stress about such things. Does it even mean they're bad? By the way, when I speak about foreign is they just they don't know anything about the Constitution or freedom, or they don't care about that. They're not tied to your history, your community, not tied to that at all. You bring them in, give them some free housing, give them some free groceries. They think you're

all right? Why is life so much more affordable for Americans? Let's let AOC take it away.

Americans are fed up and angry, and they have to be These concerns have to be addressed or people don't care about anything else, you know, speaking of historically, because I have this sick fascination with some of the worst parts of history, wars and famines and hurricanes and floods, I guess I'm probably similar to you, and that maybe because of that, you know, I want to know what's wild,

how selfish people become when they're starving. The most wonderful, god fearing, kindest person in the world, we will reach down and rip a loaf of bread out of a two year old's hands when they're hungry enough. The American citizen has watched his country become unable, unaffordable, and the American dream become unattainable as we've brought in fifty sixty million foreigners into the country, and they don't want to hear about Venezuela. They just don't care. They don't they

don't care. We have to address it. It is The Jesse Kelly Show on a Fantastic Thursday. Remember if you missed any part of the show, you can download the whole thing. iHeart, Spotify, iTunes. Jesse The conquer. We were antelope hunting, listening to your plan to conquer the Western hemisphere. When my boy asked what was the most lopsided modern invasion, I considered Poland in France, but I actually believe it

was Iraq in two thousand and three. I know the occupation went badly, but the invasion itself was the masterclass in combined arms. All right, One, your kids sounds freaking awesome. Two. Ah, I'm certainly not going to put down the invasion I was part of. I believe me. I wasn't an important part of it. It was just one thumb grunt, all right. But I don't know if I don't know if this

counts because it was such a mismatch. Is the thing these tyrants, historically, these tyrants, especially from countries like this, what they are that there's a huge difference between mean and tough, mean and tough. These tyrants are generally mean. So if this tribe or this village is getting out of line, oh, they'll go drop a chemical weapon on it, maybe show up, grab the mayor and pull his fingernails out in front of the whole town and shoot him

in the head. But does that make you tough. You showed up with all the guns, they didn't have any. You pulled his fingernails that you're not a tough guy. You'r mean it's the evil. So what happens is these countries they run into a technologically advanced military power that is tough, and they just get smashed immediately. Iraqi culture, and from my experience with it, is unbelievably soft. When we would run into dudes, whether they be in uniform or out of uniform, whatever, it was just kind of

pudgy and soft. Americans I don't think understand in a preciate how good American military training is and how much more manly American culture is than a lot of foreign cultures. Maybe you don't consider yourself military ready or something like that. No, you just you played basketball for ten years. Ah, I used to play football in high school, but you haven't done that in ten years or so. Maybe you're a

little flabby around the midsection. No, no, no, no, no, you don't understand you are more military ready than so many societies around the globe. This was a long way of saying, I don't necessarily think that invasion should count in your question, because they just weren't ready. They just absolutely were not ready.

The casualties we took in Iraq in large party, and I know there were some and we were fighting, I got that, But the casualties we took in large part were again not from tough guys, from terrorists who slipped across the border after the invasion and started setting off bombs and blowing things up. And I know they put up a fight in places like Felujah, where it was a lot of urban fighting. It was brutal. I'm certainly not denying that, but that wasn't necessarily Iraqi culture. That

was a lot of Islamic terrorist culture. The Iraqi culture, I don't know. I would say the invasion of France. I would say the invasion of France. Most people do not fully understand and appreciate this, And you don't understand and appreciate it because the Nazis are freaking the spawn of Satan, so nobody wants to ever pay any compliments to the Nazi army or Hitler or something like that. But on paper, France not that they should have held

their own against Germany. They should have beaten Germany by any metric. If you look at the number of troops and tanks and things like that. And they were on the defense, not the offense. It's easier to be on the defense than the offense because you're fighting in your home territory, territory, you know your fortifications, your supplies. It was considered by many of Hitler's generals to be borderline

suicidal to invade France. Hitler got nos. It was an all powerful dictator, so you couldn't go too far if you were a general. But about as much pushback as you could possibly get. That's how much Hitler got from his generals. When he said we're going into France. They said, uh what, No, Look, okay, we can beat up Belgium. Maybe we'll give you a poll, and they're not quite a France. Then we can't match France. What Chris Chris said, wasn't that part of the schleief In plan. The Schleefen

Plan was World War One, buddy. I'm actually glad you pay attention. I'm quite impressed. But yes, no, in all seriousness, Hitler's invasion of France and World War Two was almost kind of a continuation of the schleif And plan. You push forward, smashed through France as fast as possible, so you're not necessarily wrong. But the shleif and plan was World War One. That's where they implemented the sleeve and plan. Anyway, world War two France should have won, at least on paper,

they should have won. But okay, you give them that they were caught flat footed. They were broken down after World War One, but to fall that quickly is insane. And yes, obviously the German war machine was very, very impressive, especially at that time before they were starving, before they started running out of stuff, before we started starving them of resources. Really it was the invasion of Russia that doomed them. But that was absurdly lopsided for what should

have been pretty equal. That's all Lee Frasier. In boxing, everyone knows all the Ali Fraser and they went to war three times. They have to go to the hospital. They just went to war three times. And there were both these gigantic stud monsters. It would be like Ali fighting Fraser and just knocking him out in the first round. That shouldn't happen. Even if he loses. Okay, I understand he might lose. Muhammad Ali is a really great fighter. He might lose but you're not gonna knock out Joe

Fraser in the first round. It would be like Ali coming out and just storming through him in round one. Really really lopsided, but not examined a lot, because the second you start touching on you should subjects ah you praising hit there. You know what kind of Namby Pamby's sensitive society we have? Now all right, we're gonna talk a little bit about arctic frost. Why don't take phone calls? We have so much to get to and giving away free stuff
