polls. >> i will never let the deep state bureaucrats lock you down. >> i am the only person who is not bought and paid for. >> i was a house conservative leader before it was cool. >> if you want something said, ask a man, if you want something done, ask a woman. >> america can do for anyone what she has done for me. >> our nation is in trouble because of failed leadership. the solution is not for more years of joseph biden. >> i am from a town of 300 people. it is a big deal to make it on the stage. ramaswamy grabbing a lot of headlines and the attention of his fellow debaters. >> who is this guy with a funny last name and what is he doing in the middle of this debate stage? >> i have had enough of a guy who sounds like chatgpt standing up here. the last person who stood in the middle of the stage and said what is a skinny guy with an odd last name doing up here was barack obama and we are dealing with the same type of amateur. now is not the time for on-the-job training. >> today, ukraine is not a priority for the united states. >> under your watch, you will make america less. you have no foreign policy experience and it shows. >> the reviews are in from the liberal media. i don't think they liked it very much. >> it is terrible. i felt like he was performing. >> it was so miserable. >> the public got treated to a heap of crazy. >> he was disrespectful, territorial, obnoxious at times. >> you have been talking to everybody about your thoughts. tell us what you thought about last night. >> i loved it. i was glued to the television. i love democracy in action. to me it was like talking to a jury. the american people are the jury. these people are the lawyers trying to sell themselves to the american people. i thought he was the populist guy who was the nonpolitician in business, who was the first want to say, even if donald trump is convicted i will go for him even though they all swore they would support him. i was impressed with nikki haley. i was very impressed. she has a lot of foreign policy experience and she showed it. i heard someone on fox this morning and i was disturbed by it. the individual said nikki haley lost her cool. she was yelling. there was real resentment and i said, why is he picking on the woman when the men were all yelling as well. that was very offensive and i wonder how many americans thought that? with respect to desantis, i was happy with what he said, but he is awkward. it is like he didn't know what you should do, like taking a picture. chris christie was a bulldog. there were things he said that were not totally anti-trump where it seemed like he wanted to be in the race as opposed to being an anti-trumper. pentz, it was out of character for him to say the things he said. trump was talking about yesterday and -- pentz was talking about yesterday and it did not matter. to me, the winners were nikki haley and desantis, who made some ground up, but the one thing i loved was when -- got up said to real, frack, and burn coal and he connected it to the economy. that was the most important connection. >> that was a clean and concise line. >> the big winners today or brett and martha. >> i have that in my notes, to bang. >> they had to put up with a loud audience and they did well. the person that zigs while everybody zags is going to come out ahead. i am not going to jump on the hysteria train. it is too early, but you do when when you make everyone else react the same way and trump used to do that all the time. 20 people on the stage would scream and that is what ramaswamy was doing. he said bought and paid for. that triggered everybody and they all say the same thing and that works to your advantage because everything is focused on you. the focus was on him and not on desantis. desantis is supposed to be number two. they treated ramaswamy like number two. donald trump not being there ended up being a plus for these candidates because when you have a personality that bright, you cannot see the other people. ramaswamy got a strong opening. a few of the other people probably did better. he seemed -- it goes to that thing. if you are versed in persuasion you will always have an edge and you can tell he's got it. it is too early to say who the democrats should be worried about, or if they should be worried about anybody. >> may be the person they are worried about is not on the stage. i thought one of the interesting things for me, i have never been in the debate room. i have always been in the staff room or onset. what was interesting as when he said you are all bought and paid for, it is not just the people on the stage that reacted. that was this moment. they ebbed and flowed. sometimes they cheered and sometimes they didn't. what i thought one last night were issues and policy. people were hungry to hear what would you do to make my life better. >> who is the audience? >> they are rnc people. >> bought and paid for. >> everybody got a few seats. the other thing is, great ratings, more than anticipated. what i thought was interesting was when we had this voter panel from wisconsin, nine people for both days, before the debate and after the debate. we were able to talk to them and the consensus was there were a lot of people wear been with ray but their heads were with desantis and haley. they like dog, but they thought maybe he could be something else in the government. the other thing is, the young people tend to like ramaswamy but they all said he is too polarizing, energizing, but he probably couldn't win. in wisconsin is where we will be a year from now for the rnc convention. it is a must-win for the republicans. i asked all of them, who thinks any of these candidates could beat biden in 2024 and they thought this is a field they have a lot of pride in. >> the democrat take away was what? do you fear any of these people? >> quaking in my boots. i found it interesting. i am glad we are in season versus in a few months we will see what is happening and that is what is important for the american people. the fact that donald trump wasn't there was an advantage to start talking about him and it was important and i am glad they asked about how they responded to the indictments. this guy is up 30 or 40 points in the primary. i did not see a credible threat to donald trump winning the primary. i thought it was fascinating five of the eight were governors. they have executive experience to talk about it. i love chris christie, but talking about how he governed a blue state and how he was able to get that done, that is important. on the ramaswamy front, he and nikki haley seem to like the winners to me. it was very strange he started off by copying barack obama, the line about the skinny guy with a funny name. that is what barack obama said when he accepted the nomination at the dnc. why would you copy someone as your introduction to the world? and copy the most popular democrat. >> don't you hate plagiarists? >> i don't get that. >> biden. >> or when melania copied michelle obama. no? no one is into that? so i thought that was strange and as time goes on, a lot of this was bubbling off of ramaswamy, the audio has been released that he took money to go to law school, which seems deceitful. people will start digging into him. >> if someone gives you a scholarship and you have $1 million in the bank, you don't take it? >> you were not supposed to get it if you can afford to go. >> so he is not worthy to go? >> there are scholarships based on need. >> so he took a need one. >> it is not like he checked off a box that wasn't authentic. >> here we go. elizabeth warren said she was native american. nikki haley, i felt this way during the amy coney barrett confirmation, seeing a woman up there is fundamentally exciting. she did a great job. she was the only realistic person. >> stop it. >> no, you stop it. >> let's all stop it. we have to pay some bills. >> advertisers, take it away. > (ella) fashion moves fast.

>> i don't know. it is an honest answer and i have never been honest. i usually pretend, but i do know this. it is not getting eliminated. it is never going to get eliminated. republicans have tried to eliminate government for decades and it just grows. the democrats keep throwing money at schools and expecting results and if that were true, we would be matriculating and that is not happening. the democrats use the education system as a money laundering opportunity for donations, as a vote harvesting opportunity during elections and a brainwashing laboratory. they try to trap students in these laboratories and then don't want to talk about it. republicans are talking about academic achievement and we have never talked about that in this detail. the parents have to get involved. you can't expect to send your school -- send your kid to public school and he will ace his lsat's. you have to read the kid books, check his homework, run for school board, something, but to say it is all hands-off, you do it, you will never get a smart kid. 54% of republican voters think the schools teach too little on reading and writing. 50% want more on math, science and tech. how important is it to focus on these subjects? >> it is critical. this is one of the issues where you have unification amongst parents who want vast improvement in terms of our public school system, more opportunity for vouchers. the governor of pennsylvania has close to 60% approval rating. we remember how glenn youn youngkin -- it is progress, what is going on. that he is part of the democratic national discourse is a departure from how it has been. navigator research has dials they are doing through the debate, seeing the trend lines, people like. they talked about abolishing the department of education and the teachers union, they fell off a cliff with independent voters. it was straight down. independent voters are the key to this election. democrats and republicans don't have enough on their own. it is an issue. republicans talk about this all the time. it is not resonating with those independence and if you want to win a general, you have to go through them. >> can we get the sound on ramaswamy bringing up -- in the united states? >> we have a federal government that pays single women more not to have a man in the house than to have a man in the house contributing to an epidemic of fatherlessness and that goes hand in glove with the education crisis because education starts with the family and the nuclear family is the greatest form of governmentn mankind. >> he would be great in that seat. those ideas have been around. what we predicted, that when you combine the covid shutdowns and the gender fascism, the education problems, the crime, it made it so parents had no place in the democratic party. no one listens to their problems because their problems are twisted into some form of bigotry or some sort of and democrats say we want a conversation. but if you want a conversation in a school board meeting, they are going to call you a domestic terrorist. democrats have to stop embracing evil because republicans are on the side of the good. you can understand why they are proslavery because the republicans were not. >> the other side, the white house, they are embracing all sorts of weird stuff. child mutilation. they won't condemn that because they want to own the right. the right comes out against it, the white house has to be for it. the democrats say the children used to be the future and no, now it is dudes in dresses. parents will start figuring this out soon. you will soon become a republican. >> that is not true and gender affirming care is not . >> we are going to remove your. how is that for affirmation. >> republicans vowing to use military force against the cartels. it's because of tiktok that i had to go out and get a website. i'm at a point now where i've outgrown my house. growing up, every time i'd get out of the shower, i would itch. my first experience with goat milk soap, it kinda was like a light bulb moment. tiktok is a fantastic platform for diy. if you'd have told me three years ago that i would own my own business and be expanding into a separate building, i would've told you you'd lost your mind. >> woman: why did we choose safelite?

(announcer) change your life at golo.com. that's golo.com. >> there is one thing g.o.p. candidates can agree on. joe biden has bungled the bo border. republicans offer solutions to fix it. >> i am going to send troops to our southern border. when these drug pushers are bringing fentanyl across the border, that is going to be the last thing they do. >> this is disastrous. an invasion across someone else's border when we should use those resources to prevent across the invasion of our own southern border. >> we will partner with the mexican military and hunt down and destroy cartels claiming lives. >> there will be lethal force used by the border patrol, law enforcement as needed to protect the border. >> i will make that border wall complete. >> powerful stuff. sounds like another idea that sprung from this table. you have insight into these cartels. they are not just about drugs and human trafficking. they are becoming big business. if we don't deal with this now, they are going to be dealing with us later. >> i didn't understand the solution. i did not get specifics. we have to get tough on the border. we have to designate cartels terror organizations and ratchet up the cia, but what does that look like? they are following what fox is saying or what trump has said. what does it mean when you have border patrol agents shooting coyotes in texas. we are going to shoot anybody who comes across the border? you are going to stop fentanyl from coming into china? how? how are they going to partner with the mexican military? all of a sudden we are partnering with the mexican military? and you trust the mexican military? do they want to partner with us because they are on the take from the cartels. we didn't hear specifics on how they are going to reduce inflation. what are you going to do to make people earn more. we didn't hear a lot of specifics, and like a father, i am disappointed. >> are we going to bomb china too? >> the one thing i heard that was interesting was desantis saying he would send in special forces to mexico. we have an idea of where the drugs are coming from and how they are getting into the united states. we deal with it in other countries, you should be able to deal with that on our own bo border. desantis, unlike other people on the stage, has dealt with not the border, but the consequences where he sends the emigrants to the other states. he asked me to mention that. the important thing is that this past month in july, the influx is up 30%. everyone said title 42 is down, everything is going down. we have 130,000 people coming in in july. why is it easier to come here illegally than legally? the auctioning off the border wall, it is an insult to the american people. i remember being at the border after trump -- office and saying where is security. now biden is selling it to make sure if the republican comes in they cannot rebuild the wall. the fact that 80% of americans approve of the construction of a border wall, it is to desantis' benefit. >> it is fair to say somebody who brings drugs in that killed 100,000 people is a terrorist. what is different? >> when we kill terrorists, most are governments we are not working with. the mexicans are a strong ally. there could be military resources or cartel kings that it would benefit us or take them out. this idea that we are going to . it has never happened before. >> he sounded very democratic. >> he sounded like he thought donald trump was the one who had the ideas about this and that is how the majority of the republican base feels. >> talking about we have to stop the fentanyl and that is why we are going after the cartels, the majority is traffic in by americans. are you going to shoot americans at the border? >> is it coming through the border or ports of entry? >> full of fentanyl. >> we don't get any of the stuff that comes across undetected. >> we get both. >> it is the point i was going to make about terrorists. we know how much we catch in terms of the border patrol pulls over a car and there is all this fentanyl in it. you don't know what you are not catching and you don't know how many people are coming in that you don't catch. the other thing is, the candidates missed an opportunity to hit back at biden. 146 people on the terrorism watch list have come across the border that we know of. >> amazing. why isn't anyone's hair on fire about that? they missed an opportunity about that. >> up next, donald trump on his way to georgia for his arrest. and that provides a challenge to keep the entire class engaged. schools came to us with this challenge of how do we find a way to hold students interest in attention to address this. we assembled an experienced team to professionally film video lessons using some of the best cinematic equipment and technology available, acellus breaks the course material into short video lessons that keeps the students attention. students advance through each concept at their own pace and can rewatch videos on demand. acellus gold incorporates 3di, which is a new method of instruction designed specifically for hard to grasp concepts. with 3di, we can take students into the molecular level when needed or slow down mechanical processes, making them much easier to grasp. every student has a natural curiosity and that can spark an excitement for learning. as a teacher, when i see students engaged and excited about learning, it gets me excited as well. we're traveling all across america, talking to people about their hearts. how's the heart?
