3 RADICAL moves Democrats could make in the 2024 election

2024 is off to a fast start with the beginning of election season only weeks away and Democrats are already playing dirty. Glenn reviews the latest legal challenges against former president Donald Trump's 2024 campaign, including the Maine Secretary of State's attempt to take him off the ballot — even though he hasn't even been CHARGED with insurrection! "This should tell you everything you need to know about the Democrats," Glenn says. But he doesn't believe they'll stop there. Glenn predicts 3 radical moves the Democrats could make as we get closer to November. Will they throw Trump in jail? Will they kick President Biden out of the race? And will they run someone even more radical — Michelle Obama? — in his place?

GLENN: Well, welcome, Stu. How are you?

STU: Glenn, very well.

I think you're amazingly accurate here, when you point out, that we're in that situation, where we are hitting the -- the ground running here.

GLENN: Oh, yeah.

STU: We jump in. You come back from holiday break. And you're less than two weeks away from Iowa.

We launch into basically full-out election mode, immediately.

GLENN: Yeah. Yeah. Thank you.

STU: We have lots of technical --

GLENN: It's a new year. It is a new year.

STU: New year, new buttons. So you go right into this. I think so many people, you spend the previous year kind of like figuring out what the field looks like. What's this race? What this is? Right. And it's got to be one of the strangest races anyone has ever looked at before. We have one side saying, all they care about is democracy, as they're trying to get the other guy removed from the ballot.

GLENN: I have to tell you. I -- I accidental believe that this is their strategy. First of all, I don't know if you heard about Rudy Giuliani. He's broke now. They've wiped his savings out. He is absolutely broke.

STU: There was a ruling against him for nine figures, right?

GLENN: Yeah. And so he's broke. And that is -- that is the lesson. The lesson is: We'll bankrupt you. We'll destroy you. We'll smear you. You will not survive.

And the process, really is also the punishment. It doesn't matter if they win or not. It really doesn't. They'll just keep going.

With Donald Trump, the way these states -- I mean, I could not believe that they're invoking the 14th Amendment. And saying, well, you know, a part of it insurrection. He's not even been charged with an insurrection. Not even been charged.

So they're taking him off, because of an insurrection.

Something he was never even charged with.

STU: In any -- they have 91 charges against him.

None of them are insurrection.

GLENN: None of them are.

So now you have two states taking him off the ballot.

And there's 30 lining up.

STU: Yeah. Plenty of them are going to try to do it.

GLENN: Let me tell you something: This should tell you everything you need to know, about the Democrats.

It should tell you how radical, they actually are. They're saying that they want to preserve democracy. But this isn't true.

Let me tell you what I think is going to happen.

If this goes through, and Donald -- it will make Donald Trump more and more popular. I have no idea how they're going to arrange these things.

It's going to throw everything into chaos. Joe Biden's numbers are going to continue to go down.

And the Democrats have something that the Republicans don't. Thank God.

And that is, the superdelegate. The superdelegate is something that the -- the Democrats came up with, after they saw Ronald Reagan elected.

Here's this guy who was out of step with the party. Was not playing ball with the party. But his grassroots effect just took off. And they couldn't control him.

And the Democrats saw that, and they said, we can't have that happen to our party. We can never have that.

Well, for many, many years, there's never been anybody -- you know, it's like Al Gore or Bill Clinton. Oh, jeez. Which one? Which one?

It's not that big of a choice. They didn't have a Bernie Sanders, that could stand up and actually do grassroots. Well, Bernie Sanders did.

Bernie Sanders was not in their camp. That's why, you saw all of the horse trading and everything else, that was going on, during the 2016 election.

They took him out. Now, that was still not the full superdelegate thing. You're going to see it this year. I really believe the Democrats are going to do their superdelegate, which can vote differently than the public. So it's a -- it's a hand-selected group of people, that the party elites select, and if they feel for the party or for democracy's sake, the people have been duped. They can override their vote. And I think you're going to see the poll numbers going down so horribly, that you're going to have to have somebody else besides Biden. And you can't have his vice president.

And there's no way you can start a campaign now. It's too late. It's too late. You can't even get people on the ballot.

Although, they're strangely trying to get somebody else off the ballot. But you can't even get anybody on the ballot at this point. Superdelegates stand in, and they say, you know what, for the good of the country we need somebody that can unite us all, and that would be Michelle Obama.

STU: Wow. Wow. You're starting off the year with this.

GLENN: Because, I mean -- it just makes sense to me. It may not happen.

But it just makes sense to me. Okay is this to ever

STU: It's amazing.

Because it shows the state of where Biden is, right?

There's a new poll out today, showing that Trump is winning.

GLENN: Clobbering him.

STU: Even with Hispanic voters. And young voters.

GLENN: And black voters.

STU: He's making massive inroads with these people. That are supposed to be just democratic groups.

We talk about them forever. They just take them completely for granted. Right? They show up every single time. They vote 80, 80-70, 80-90 percent for Democrats. And they don't really think about them again.

That is not -- at least in the polls, is changing, in a big way. And at some point, you wonder, are they just going to -- are they really going to go down with the ship. With Joe Biden?

Are they that dedicated to this man?

GLENN: Honestly, what is your choice at this point?

STU: And then you get to where you are with Michelle Obama or someone similar.

GLENN: Right. Am I wrong?

Do they have another choice at this point?

STU: I think Gavin Newsom wants it to be Gavin Newsom.

GLENN: Yeah, but how do you get him on to the ballots everywhere. How does that happen?

STU: It would have to be something within the party. By the way, that's an important thing to understand with the Trump part of this thing as well.

If these states tell the Republicans, they're not going to put him on the ballot. The Republican Party can still make this happen for Donald Trump as the nominee. The question is in the general election where it becomes a problem. They can change all their own rules. They can do all sorts of stuff to make sure that Donald Trump gets this election. If what people believe, is that he's way ahead, and they're just trying to get him off the ballots. It's a different process when it comes to the Republican Party. But when it comes to the actual final ballot, that's a big, big deal.

GLENN: This is Soviet-union stuff. I mean, the next step. Honestly, the next step is to put your opponent in jail.

STU: They would never try that, Glenn.

GLENN: Yeah. They are.

STU: It's fascinating.

GLENN: And it's all under the context of an argument for democracy.

GLENN: Correct.

STU: It's all in this context that the media completely accepts, with no sense of irony at all about it. It's all about an effort to preserve democracy. If you trust democracy, then just beat Donald Trump. Just beat him.

Convince the American people, he's the worst option.

GLENN: They can't.

STU: Your 90-year-old guy who can't get through a sentence will be much better.

GLENN: They can't.

STU: They obviously believe that they can't. Even if they could, they don't believe that they can. Because if you believe actually in democracy, which I don't think that they do. At least the elements of democracy that exist in our constitutional republic. If they actually believed in those things, they would just come out and win.

GLENN: Yes.

STU: I mean, look, I went through a weekend, this weekend, Glenn, where the Philadelphia Eagles lost to the Arizona Cardinals. And the Dallas Cowboys defeated the Detroit Lions, basically blowing up what started as a promising season.

And watching that, the end of that Cowboys game was horrible for Eagles fans.

Because it -- and Detroit Lions fans. It looked like the Lions should have won. There was a controversial call, blah, blah, blah. And people -- my Eagles friends are like, can you believe that call?

Beat the Arizona Cardinals, then you don't have to worry about it. Right? Go out, and win the games on your schedule.

And you don't have to worry about the calls on the other games.

This is what the freaking Democratic Party should be able to understand. Come out and win. Beat the guy you say is Hitler.

And you don't have to worry about throwing him in prison. Just beat him!

GLENN: They're just moving too fast.

Look at. You have a situation now. Did you see the poll numbers with the youth on Osama bin Laden right now?

It is crazy. It is crazy.

It is 26 percent believe that he was not -- not only had good ideas.

But what he did was right. Okay?

It's astonishing. What's happening. Now, why is that happening?

STU: Hmm.

GLENN: Because of lack of education.

We lived through it. And we did not show it, all the time. We don't even teach it anymore.

So all we're teaching is anti-American stuff. They don't know who Osama bin Laden really is. And what do you get? You get this!

Their agenda in schools is working. We've already lost one generation. We may lose two. Okay?

If that happens, and we don't turn it around. America as we know it is gone for a while, on earth.

It will be found again. God will not be thwarted. May not happen in this country. But God will not be thwarted. These freedoms belong to him.

You sit here and you look at what they're doing, they know they can't get all of the things they need passed, passed.

So at the end of progressivism is either a peaceful transition or revolution. They're now choosing, I think, revolution if possible.

If needed. They will not give this up.

But they -- they think they had all of the tools, the thing they didn't count on was the American people.

They didn't count on the middle of the country, actually believing in something, that they don't even understand.

They didn't count on a Donald Trump, or Ron DeSantis. Or Vivek Ramaswamy.

They didn't expect the Tea Party.

And for the people who invented the internet. They had absolutely no idea, the monster, that they unleashed, when they put people and said, you can't talk, on these media outlets.

When the internet was ready. So now, what are they going to do?

They have to effect the election, and they're also trying to take Donald Trump off of the ballot everywhere.

Because they want turmoil in the streets. They have to have it. They have to have it.

VOICE: Z10852. Something weird is going on. The World Trade Center is on fire.

VOICE: Seriously the top of the building. We're trying to get information.

VOICE: Top level of one of the --

VOICE: To unfold from New York City.

VOICE: A plane crashed just --

VOICE: My sister is in that believe. I hope she's okay. I have to come to New York.

VOICE: It's pandemonium.

VOICE: It's raining papers.

VOICE: Wait a minute! Stop just a second. Why are we -- why are we -- I've got breaking news. Breaking news, yesterday. New York City just elected as their mayoral candidate for the left. And the Democrats, a -- a Muslim radical, who is also a communist!

So, you know, it only took you 25 years. It only took you 25 years, New York, to go completely insane.

Somebody who is -- well, I mean, if I might quote Michael malice today. I am old enough to remember when New Yorkers endured 9/11 instead of voting for it.

But you've got a -- you've got a communist jihadist apologist now.

Who was -- you know, well, CAIR put $100,000 behind his bid for New York City mayor.

So you have somebody who is endorsed by CAIR. That's really good.

He also was somebody who said, you know, he was -- he was for the shooting of the United Health Care CEO.

Said he was looking forward to driving down magnum Joan avenue. I don't know. Sounds like supporting people in the streets. Maybe it's just me.

Then he also said that he was going to globalize the intifada, which I think that's -- maybe -- maybe that's just me.

I mean, what do I know?

Tim Miller who is a podcaster. Asked him a few weeks ago. Asked him about his pro Palestinian slogan. Globalized the intifada. And he said, for me, ultimately, what I hear in so many, is a desperate desire for equality and equal rights, in standing up for Palistinian human rights. Oh, is that what you hear, Mr. CAIR?

Really? Huh, that's interesting.

Right. So globalize the intifada.

I mean, I mean, sure, that's -- I mean well, let me go on.

Because I don't want to take him out of context.

He then delved into the semantics of the intifada, citing the United States Holocaust memorial museum's use of a word for a translation for uprising, in an Arabic version of an article, a museum published about the Warsaw ghetto.

Oh!

So this is just a comparison, about the -- the armed rebellion against the Nazis!

I don't know if that makes me feel better!

I mean, if we're globalizing that.

We're the Nazis in this scenario.

Because I don't think it's the Palestinians.

I certainly don't think it's anybody who is like, hey.

Global jihad. I don't think it's those guys.

Or the Nazis. Who are the Nazis in that?

And it seems, if that's what you mean, then it's not just a harmless kind of slogan about human rights. It is a call for violence on the streets.

Because I don't know if you know, that's what happened when the Jews had their uprising against the Nazis.

I'm just saying!

But, hey, hey, free Palestine.

Oh, that's not what that means, gang. That is not what that means, but don't worry about it. He's just going to be possibly the new mayor.

And that's great. By the way, the Columbia faculty members signed a letter defending Hamas.

They were also among the donors to his mayoral campaign.

So, you know, you don't have anything to worry about.

And his father, who used to work at Columbia. Do you know, Stu?

Is his Dad -- is he still a professor at Columbia University?

He said that -- this violent terror thing of Islam, is not a part of Islam. Now, I've read the Koran, and much of the hadith.

And I'm pretty sure the violence is a part of that. But no.

No. This is something entirely new.

And his father while at Columbia university, wanted everybody to know, that this is actually -- this is something that came out of America!

America is really responsible for this.

And, you know, it really started with the Reagan administration, you know, when he started -- when he started with his very religious terms, to finish the war against the evil empire.

So, you know, that's where -- that's where 9/11 came from.

Is what -- don't worry about it! Don't worry about it!

Because who am I? I'm clearly just -- am I an anti-Semite today, or am I an Islamophobic? I can't remember which one.

Oh, it's probably both. Anyway, Islamophobia. Let me just explain Islamophobia. I haven't even gotten to the Communist part of it. Which is really, really -- New York, you're in one for hell of a ride. Buckle up.

It will be a fun rollercoaster for you. My gosh, I've never been happier that I've been away are if New York.

Anyway, I just want I to know, there is Islam. And then there is Islamists. Now, an Islamist is somebody who really wants Sharia law.

That's political Islam!

That's not a faith. That's political Islam.

Now, let me make really -- something really clear. Criticizing Islamism, is not Islamophobia. Pointing out the dangers of, oh. I don't know.

Political Islam. The ideology that seeks to use the tools of democracy, ultimately to destroy democracy, is not an attack on Muslims.

No. Uh-uh.

You know why?

Because Muslims are often the first people in line.

The first victims of the ideology.

So let's draw a bright, bright line between Islam as a faith, millions of people can practice that faithfully and peacefully.

It's mostly peaceful, okay?

Then there's the Islamism.

Islamism is something entirely -- that's a political project.

A theocratic political -- oh. Left loves theocracies. They love it.

Of course, you never see a problem with it.

See it when an Islamist is touting it. Anyway, it's not about prayer. It's not about fasting. It's not about spiritual life.

It's all about power. It's about merging of mosque and state. It's about implementing Sharia, not as a personal code of conduct. But as a governing legal system.

And it's -- it's supremacy.

Absolutely. Faith.

Religion.

It's -- there's one thing that's supreme.

It's misogynistic.

Deeply intolerant of all kinds of things.

Descent. Secularism. Other faiths. Even competing interpretations from inside the faith itself.

It will behead them too.

So let's -- let's be honest here for a second.

You know, CAIR should be labeled an international terror organization.

In my opinion. In my opinion.

Oh, does that make me -- that makes me an Islamophobe. I'm sure. I'm sure they will start a campaign against me on being an Islamophobe.

Stand in line, guys. You've been doing it since 2001, okay?

I don't really care. And I don't think the American people. I think that record, all the grooves are worn-out on that one, okay?

This is not a religion we're talking about. When we're talking about Sharia law. And we're talking about globalize the intifada. What does that mean, actually, to globalize it?

Does that mean we now want to do what is happening to Israel? All over the world?

Has the Palestinian plight become our plight you now, as Americans?

That there has to be an intifada here!

Because it's the kind of the same. You know. It's kind of the same over, you know, with what the Palestinians are going through.

Well, it's very much like what the Jews went through with the Nazis.

That's a weird one. That one makes my head hurt. It's very much the same as that. And very much the same as the fight against Donald Trump.

Oh, this is going to be fun. It's fun!

Really fun. You know, the irony here is, the ones that will scream Islamophobia the most, are the ones in the progressive left, the champions of feminism, LGBTQ rights. And secularism.

They're going to -- no. You want -- they're going to stand with the people, who want to kill them first.

See, this is how smart they are!

This is why it's going to work out well, in New York City.

Let me just say. If you have an ounce of common sense, you run a business, you have an ounce of wealth. And I don't mean wealth like, you know, hey, Lovey.

Let's get on the boat for a three-hour tour with a suitcase full of cash. I mean you saved anything, anything, get the hell out of New York City.

I mean, this is about survival. This is about free speech. This is about women's rights.
Religious pluralism. Secular legal systems. Liberal democracy.

But it's also about failed principles of Communism. Okay?

First, you have to call out political Islam for what it is. Okay?

And we have to do it with the clarity that we call out white nationalism.

Got to do it with that. Got to -- you know, the Klan. Really bad people.

Really bad people.

Anybody who is shouting for globalized intifada?

Pretty bad. Pretty bad people.

Okay?

Now, let's get to communism.

Because that's another cool, cool angle of the new Democratic candidate for -- for mayor of New York City.

That I just -- I think is cuddly and cute. Sure, it led to 100 million deaths. But this time, New York is going to be radically different. Oh, did I use the word radical?

I didn't mean to use that. What's radical about this guy?

Nothing. He's just like you!

Well, not exactly.

But let's talk about communism, next!

Now, the new mayoral candidate that's running there in New York City. That so many young people rushed to defend and vote for. He's promising free buses.

That's going to work out.

Where are you going to get the money for free buses.

It's free!

City-run grocery stores.

Oh, rent freezes. And finally somebody has done it. A 30-dollar minimum wage.

So under the banner of equity. And, you know, we will tax the wealthy. And the corporations. You know, we're going to squeeze another $10 billion out of them.

Really?

Because they're going to call a U-Haul.

You know, they will call something like U-Haul. There will be a lot of -- there will be a lot of movers that are like, how do I get the truck back from Texas or Florida back up to New York? Nobody is moving up there.

But he's going to do it.

Now, his vision isn't really new. You know, just -- just tax people, so we could have city-run grocery stores. You know, I remember -- I'm old enough to remember those city-run grocery stores in Moscow.

They were great.

The shelves were empty.

But that's just Moscow.

It worked out completely different in Venezuela.

Where, oh, no.

It didn't. That's right. The grocery store.

They were eating the zoo animals.

But it will be different in New York.

Because they have rent controls too.

And that will just choke the housing supply, but don't worry. As a young family.

You know, you voted for it.

You know better.

It will work this time.

So, you know, I like building ideas, I just don't like usually building on the graves of 100 million people.

But, you know, why not? Why not?

You know, use this dogma.

And this time, it will be different. It's not like it was in China. Where the great leap forward, was a gross -- a gross parody of progress. Venezuela, which was oil rich. One of the richest nations in the hemisphere now sees 90 percent of its population in poverty!

Yeah. Darn it. You know what they did?

They decided to take state control of things.

You know, like grocery stores. And it worked out well. How is that free busing working out in Venezuela?

I just want to -- I just want to know.

Anyway, then you've got the globalize the intifada. Which is going to drop a little violence in, and anti-Semitism in with your communism.

Which is weird!

Because violence and anti-Semitism, always happen. When it -- when it comes to -- when it comes to communism.

This is weird!

I've got to play something for you. Because this has talked about on me earlier this morning.

Oh, wow.

Wait a minute. This is -- this is the whole coalition coming together here.

So this is going to be good. New York, this is going to be great.

It's going to be great for you.

No. He's going to uplift you. Then the social fabric of New York City is just going to be -- just one.

It's going to be fantastic. Don't worry about your 120 billion dollars in debt. Or your 10 billion-dollar deficit that you have right now.

You are going to charge the rich more taxes, and they will stay right there.

They will be like, you know what, that 46 percent in taxes that I'm paying, this is just not enough. It's just not enough.

I need to pay 60 or 70 percent to be able to pay my fair share. So that's good. That's good. That's good.

You know, they're not risking 100 million people. It's just 8 million people.

This time, it's just 8 million people.

But, hey. For those of you in upstate New York. That aren't going to be part of this experiment.

Don't worry, you get to pay for it. Because they'll kick it up to the state. The state will have to subsidize everything. And don't you love it?

Really, don't you want to subsidize the really crazy ideas of New York City?

I mean, why don't you have a -- why don't you have a democratic socialist. A/k/a communist mayor.

Why haven't you done that? Are you not progressive enough? Are you not looking into the future?

Are you stuck in the past?

I don't know. I don't know. The graveyard is pretty big. I have a hard time getting past that one. You know, yeah, so I'm stuck in the past. Because I can't seem to pass that graveyard, and get to be down the path with you. But it's going to be a paradise.

Forget arithmetic. You know, or human nature. This time, it's going to work. It's going to work. So all right!

Wish I lived in this morning.

No wait. Nope. I don't. Nope, I don't.

And Ted Cruz, stop it. Stop writing, hey, come to Texas. No. No. Don't come to Texas. Don't come to Florida. Go to California. It's beautiful this time of year. Go there. Go there.
