>> i think we should have -- it should've passed before election day. but i'm not sure that i would be able to have changed the number of very conservative folks who turned out in the red districts who were trump voters, but may be, may be. >> do you still think voters really want to hear you talking about trump more than the issues that are affecting them of the day? >> the reason i mention trump is i didn't account for time -- the issues he supports are affecting the lives of a day. and the negative impact in their lives. it's become republicans or sensing major momentum going into 2022. >> it turns out, when you run a campaign that says "the government is smarter than parents, the people disagree with you. that is exactly what happened. >> americans across the country rejected the radical socialist agenda. >> the windows at our back, the wind is in their face, trumped at work and the bite and then jump to across the board rejected, good news for 2022. >> last night was a big deal. there's a lot of democrats right now, i'll tell you on capitol hill, who are freaked out. >> let's start with the most important thing, geraldo, where is my money?

what about the children? the climate, what about the children? poor greta, they are having nightmares of his children. and then when it came to education, they abandoned the kids and the republicans took it and ran. as republicans, maybe it's not even republicans, just parents in general were legitimately asking, what about my children? and that is with edit. this is the tea party for parents. finally -- not finally, because i might go for 17 minutes, the lincoln project has to face a reckoning. if it wasn't for the hoax that they perpetuated with the tiki torches and trying to paint youngkin as a racist, because that's really, really hurt the democrats. the democrats of land, if you go to bed with unstable, you are going to wake up with more than fleas. you're going to wake up with a republican governor and you have the lincoln project to blame pure lastly, lastly, the democrats seem to learn a lesson from 2016. it wasn't the republicans that elected trump, it was the democrats and their policies which were distinctly, to your point, anti-american. they didn't learn that this time either beer they should've let dominick said look, we will lose if we will repeat ourselves and do it again. they elected youngkin. i think the democrats should learn from the republicans, or at least embrace divided government. the republicans know that democrats make them better, because you have to work harder. the democrats should feel the same way. but they don't, they want to be the only party, hence this disaster. >> democrats have to be soon demoralized, not after just taken a beating like that. you look at the commander in chief, the head of your party, you are looking for a little spirit after taking a l like that. they came out, they voted -- no, democrats wanted them to pistol whip somebody and say you know what, we are going to come back. >> and barack obama have that historic loss of 63 seats after obamacare and that mid term, first thing he did with -- he said how they are going to move forward beard he tried to figure out a way. and bill clinton is similar. presidents can have a bad men midterm. all the finger-pointing is fun to watch for the moderates appointing of the progressive spirit and never underestimate. they are saying the reason this happens, even though 600,000 more democrats came out to vote for youngkin, they are saying the reason it didn't happen is because they didn't do more. there is an interesting thing yesterday -- the chief of staff, i follow him on twitter, he tweeted two things. last night, he tweeted somebody that said that passing by dense agenda would not have made a difference for him. he tweeted in an ominous advisor saying that they were frustrate. i think there will be a reckoning there. i think there might be a personal issue if the president is going to make a pivot. >> who do you think? >> i'm reading the tea leaves, hold up, but i think you have to show that you got it and you are going to do something different. larry sabato with a crystal ball down in virginia took four races, for senate races, and move them to all towards republicans -- not exactly towards republicans, but he took three states and move them likely to toss up. that means they can expand their map. the last thing i would say is for -- imaginary plane at game of chutes and ladders. every time he landed on something, it was on a slide down on the economy, on security, on the school. and then every time he landed it's like, i'm going to climb this little ladder and talk about grocery taxes. how am going to climb this when i'm going to talk about -- he had an applause line about bringing advanced maps to every school in virginia. that was an applause line pete he was stuck at about the issues, the democrats weren't, and that is why they are surprised. >> i'm going to take geraldo's $20 and i'm going to go buy something. it's not going to be able to get what it used to get, because of biden inflation, but -- >> i disagree. the stock market is at record highs. all i know is that the economy depends on who you ask. >> i think i'm going to get the drink instead. >> okay. >> grab your popcorn, the liberal media is freaking out about an amazing night for republicans and blaming everything on racism. kids can change minds. they can even change the world around us. packed with protein plus 21 vitamins and minerals we nourish them with carnation breakfast essentials. because today could change everything. every single day, we're all getting a little bit better. we nourish them with carnation we're better cooks... better neighbors... hi. i've got this until you get back. better parents... and better friends. no! no! that's why comcast works around the clock constantly improving america's largest gig-speed broadband network. and just doubled the capacity here. how do things look on your end?
