There he goes. I don't want to be political. Let your winners ride. Rain Man, David Sasson.
How many buttons down are you? Oh my God, I have three buttons. Look at this. Three buttons. No, look, look, look, look. Is there a button below that we can't see?

Are you free-buttoning and free-balling it? Is it both happening or what?

Well, look, I think what happened is that Biden dropped out of the race. He abdicated. Harris took over and it created a sense of euphoria on the part of the left because they thought they had a surefire loser with Biden and they were divided. And then once Harris replaced him, they thought, OK, now we got a shot and we can fully unify and get behind this this new candidate.

So what you've seen is over the past couple of weeks, the mainstream media has gone all out on behalf of Kamala Harris. And yes, this has led to a rise in the polls. But I think that the highs that Trump were at were always a little bit artificial in the sense that if the Democrats could field a candidate who could campaign, it was always going to be a close election. Biden was artificially...

Biden was artificially...
depressed in the polling because he just couldn't campaign. He could barely read from a prompter. He couldn't do interviews. So I think you're seeing the race normalizing. This is going to be a close one. It's going to be a nail biter. But I think the question about this honeymoon period that Harris has right now is whether it's sustainable. I mean, she has not done any press interviews.

I mean, she has not done any press interviews.
She has not done any press conferences. She's not answered one question. She's not been asked one tough question by the media. She has only read... from a teleprompter. She's only done scripted appearances. And yet at the same time, she's basically been changing all of her policy positions and running from every position she ever stood for.

So for example, she said that she was in favor of single payer. Now she's against it. She said she was in favor of court packing. Now she's against it. She said she was against fracking. Now she's in favor of it. On the border, she said that we should consider abolishing ICE. Now all of a sudden she's in favor of more funding for border patrol.

on crime, she used to take kind of the BLM position that cops don't make us safer to now she's saying that she's a cop and prosecutor herself. She used to be in favor of federal gun buybacks. Now she's against them. It just goes on and on. I mean, in the 2020 riots, she raised money for the legal defense of rioters. Now she's distancing herself from those positions. My point is this, is that

After spending really her whole career staking out positions on the far left, she has now dropped all of these positions for political expediency. And the question is, what does she stand for at all? Does she just kind of blow with the wind and say whatever helps her win whatever the next election is? I mean, I think that's basically what's going on here.

And normally what happens is the press would ask you that question, but she's been getting a free pass because the mainstream media has basically been operating as a division of the DNC and they're not holding her to account in any way. They're not requiring her to answer any questions. And as a result, yes, you're seeing this bounce in the polls, but
