Governor walls talks about an old expression in politics play this clip I did see this that Donald Trump was uh was in Pennsylvania was he not last night [Music] Harrisburg here's there's a saying in politics if you're explaining you're losing but I want to say this I did watch part of it last night 11 times 11 times Donald Trump explained to us that he wasn't [Applause] weird okay okay I didn't say it I didn't say it I think I think we might be getting under the skin there a little bit but look when I said that I this isn't about name calling or anything I was pointing out it's it it's weird to be obsessed with people 1:00 personal lives it's weird to be obsessed with people's healthare choices it it it's weird to continue to talk about sharks and batteries and boats and things like that then Governor wall said that he noticed that Donald Trump was taking some time off on Labor Day here play this clip so it doesn't surprise me that Donald Trump did not do a damn thing on Labor Day He took the day off which he should thank organized labor for that day off I I if I were him I would be hiding down in Mara Lago too I wouldn't want to face working people I wouldn't want to look them in the eye and tell them why their work doesn't matter why it should be harder to unionize why he and his folks have undermined Middle America look people are angry for a reason and this project 2025 thing I got to tell you this they're they're trying to run from it they continue to try and deny it 2:00 but here's what I've said very simply on this I coach football for enough years to know if you take the time to make a Playbook you're going to use it you're going to use it so they took the time to do it and I will say this JD Vance talks about being [Applause] from look look he should know he he he talks about where he came from he talks about where he was at but I'll have to tell you he did say this he said there's a lot of angst and people are angry in Middle America hell yes we are because people like him gutted Middle America the bankers and the robber barons got at Middle America they shipped our jobs out so look you go off to Yale you get a philosophy major you write a best-selling book trash the very people you grew up with just don't come back to Erie and tell us how to run our lives don't do that don't do that then Governor wall says that Donald Trump seems to be obsessed with AI here 3:00 play this clip you uh here you might know uh a while back Donald Trump said these Crowds Are All AI you know what's not AI you're votes that's what's not AI good to be back in Pennsylvania everybody Governor walls then talks about project 2025 play this clip so you know we can't afford four more years of this guy what I will say is good about this one is he's been very clear about this he's promised to pick up right where he left off the last time but I will say this he's learned a little something and it's going to be much much worse if he gets the opportunity what's really good is we don't have to guess what he's going to do because they wrote it out in a 900 page manual called project [Applause] 2025 this is where you know film this 4:00 one or whatever so you tell your relatives because look we all got them we know we got to keep talking to them he said what he would do and I believe him he kept his promise on this it's one thing he said he kept his promise he's going to cut taxes for the Rich his tariffs will have a $4,000 a year tax hike on all of you there's not a single Economist in the country or any Banker anybody else who knows anything about economics does not believe the tariffs he's proposing will not fall right on you in the products that you buy it's exactly the way it worked that's just facts um he said said he'd clean out all the experts in government all the dedicated public servants who don't serve the elected officials they serve you he's going to clean them out and put his loyalist in to make sure they do that and just to be clear just to be clear I know he's a little confused on this issue about women's rights to make their own choices but I want to be very clear he does not trust women but women do not trust him he will ban abortion 5:02 and and and here's the thing cutting taxes for the wealthy taking away your personal bodily autonomy uh making it more difficult for the middle class raising the cost of insulin the question I keep asking and I want Republicans and I want Donald Trump and JD Vance to answer who the hell is asking for this agenda who's asking for that agenda I don't think those folks standing out here in the Red Hats want that agenda because it's damn sure going to hurt them no one's asking no one's asking so here's a deal um he openly says these things that we need to talk to our relatives about and all of you know I need to talk to my relatives too trust me on this nothing makes you more middle Midwestern than having your family be on this stuff but look they're talking about s cutting Social Security and Medicare repealing the Affordable Care Act and protections like this and I keep saying this repealing and and in destroying Social Security and Medicare 6:02 if you're a billionaire you don't give a damn about social security or Medicare if you're my mom who has to pay her heat bill and her food with it it matters a lot the vast majority of people care about this they care about it and I'm going to give a big shout out you saw AFL CIO up here you saw teachers union you saw Building Trades up here look we know who built America it was union labor built America Governor walls then addresses the shooting that took place in Georgia play the clip and yeah we believe in the freedom to send our kids to school without being shot dead in the [Applause] hall the news cycle moves on within a day when what we saw yesterday down in Georgia kids going to school the first week of school excited now we have four dead so our 7:01 hearts go out to the two students and the two teachers who were killed their families be mourning there's many injured in Winder and that Community will never be the same I said this in all of you here both as a as a teacher and as a student and as a dad I loved back to school season time of Hope excitement now for those kids it'll always be a time of sheer Terror and that'll be a memory that they'll hold forever and it's a reminder the rest of the country um we've got work to do and I for one am sick and tired of hearing about thoughts and prayers rather than actually doing something about and I I say this to all of you I know guns I'm a veteran I'm a Hunter but we can't let them make this just about the Second Amendment I defend the Second Amendment but our first responsibility is to keep our kids safe 8:00 yesterday vice president Harris said it doesn't have to be this way and I can tell all of you of someone who's owned guns my whole life and hunted I can tell you I can remember it with such Clarity I sat in my office in DC when I was a member of Congress and it was shortly after the Sandy Hook massacre and I sat in there with all those parents and at that point in time I was I was an NRA guy um that's many of us grew up with that that they were gun safety and I was the only one who took the meeting with them they tried to get meetings with people who wanted to do this to sit in there and listen to these parents I think about it today my son this week started his senior year of high [Applause] school thank you thank you and it's bittersweet for me because um those killed at Sandy Hook would have been entering their senior Year too at the same time and those parents now without those so look Governor walls 9:02 talked about the commitment of the crowd being there on the same night as NFL kick off play the clip look there are a million places you could be with your time your talent and your treasure you came out here you came out here to stand next to neighbors some friends some new folks you met you came out here my God it's two hours from kickoff people and you came out here for the NFL season but you came out here as the vice president always says for a simple and beautiful reason you love this country that's why you came that's why you [Applause] came and I am incredibly grateful for it but look I always uh some of you know and I I got to tell you I'm just going to go ahead and say the coach signs warm my heart thank you they warm my heart lot of 10:01 years I I tell people never close the yearbook that state championship is as fresh today as it was 25 years ago but the great thing about it is is teaching coaching everything it's that first week the new start the opportunities to a new season everything's fresh clean State anything's possible all the things are there we're all undefeated at this point in time with the opportunity to build something better for ourselves that's what it is to build something better so I think all of you are here and you feel it and for the young people are here look between the last election Co and the last nine years of this nonsense after that guy came down a gold escalator they've tried to they've tried to tell you that this can't be joyful this can't be fun this can't be hopeful this can't be positive about the future well we reject that and it took KLA Harris to come onto the scene to tell us this is a joyful thing we're doing this is hopeful 11:00 by the way Mark cubin called in to uh the business Channel and here Mark cubin talked about how vice president kamla Harris has been giving some of the most Pro bus speeches he's heard this election season or perhaps ever play this clip I mean literally if you read the transcript of her speech yesterday she's talked more about entrepreneurs and helping them um have access to investment and making it easier for people to invest in startups then right any any president that I've ever heard talk about startups and entrepreneurs so literally she listens right this is not something where it's just her policy team comes out and says Mark you know or whoever let's hope this works no she's like list list me things you think we should be talking about you're the entrepreneur you invest in more startups than anybody I know what you think we should be doing and what's going to increase the number of of investments in startups and I've had other conversations with their team where it's like I literally go through and say the higher the capital gain STX the more 12:02 difficult it is to invest in riskier Investments and the people who have the hardest time getting risk Capital are women people of color you know young kids that are coming out of colleges exactly the people you want to take risk on the higher the cap Gaine rate the harder it is to invest in them for obvious reasons and they understand that and they've adapted as a result then here's Stephen Curry on uh endorsing kamla Harris play this clip we made a surprise appearance at the DNC that I wanted to ask you about endorsing KL Harris I think we do have a a clip of it if we could just play what's up everybody Stephen Curry here I know you all know I play for the gold State Warriors but man what a great honor it was to represent Team USA and go out there and win that gold medal at the Olympics this summer and that Unity on and off the court reminded us all that together we can do all things and continue to inspire the world that's why 13:01 I believe that kamla as president could bring that Unity back and continue to move our country forward this is about preserving hope and belief in our country making sure families can be taken care of during the most precious times what was the reaction to that and why did why was that so important for you to do the reaction was great there's also obviously a lot of noise uh in terms of anytime you step into this Lane you know um it's going to be received uh you know in a lot of different ways and I for me it's all about creating conversations that are about being decent human beings first and foremost I think we've lost that a little bit to where um obviously endorsing comma is important for me for my family um why what are the issues you care about most say what what are the issues you care about uh I just know from especially women's rights and thinking about you know what's at stake with this election um and understanding like we need to be in a position where women have the right 14:00 to choose what's right for them and that's at the top of the list for me I have amazing women in my life who you know been a a huge inspiration to me uh but knowing kamla and and having been around her um and understand she's qualified for this job she's uh I think representing what it means to be a great leader and being a decent human being in terms of representing our country the right way so it's it's easy choice for me but to be able to have a be in a situation where you can be a part of DNC do a video like that um you know let people know where I feel like but Foster positive conversations you know through it all I think that's what our country is keep you posted as we learn more here on the mest touch
