entertaining and informative this is sit in friends in the morning 77 [Music] WABC now one thing I can tell you John Rich Lowry National Review is a real radio listener cuz if he is something good on AM radio he doesn't leave his car and a lot of people like that listening right now they hear some something good they may have a meeting or they got to go inside the house or what they'll stay in their car and they'll listen to the completion of the segment because it it's enticing and he's he's he's told that to he's one he's one smart guy we had him on our 5:00 show the other day and uh he knows what's going on Rich Lowry are you around hey what's up fellas you got me Curtis I I I will I will sit in the car I hope people don't notice me just sitting there but sometimes you got to do it rich what's going on tell us I mean what's the hot news this morning well the day will be defined by her vep choice C's vep Choice the the word was that she needed to sleep on it uh again last night but time's running out so we we'll know sometime today probably in a uh either a media leak or a video posted on social media and then there'll be a big rally in Philadelphia I'll be a little surprised I guess if it's not Josh Shapiro but who knows yeah it is Philadelphia and he's the closest guy to Philadelphia I mean um it's expected but you know some of the extreme left-wing people of uh of the democratic party said if they pick a Jew they're going to burn down Chicago yeah I it's just a symptom of the bizarre and perverse place we are in the country that picking a Jew it's already been done right but picking a Jew on a to to be a running mate would be controversial or maybe a no-go Zone and I think if she doesn't pick Shapiro that that will probably be part of the reason and that'll be well the last the last year they picked uh Al Gore uh picked uh Joe liberman and Joe liberman is the one of the most decent people I met I miss him already because I I had him on my radio show at least you know two three four times a month and I mean it's a stupid way the way he passed uh but but they're blaming the Democratic party internally is blaming Joe Lieberman for Al Gore losing the election he and uh don't forget he even lost his home state of Tennessee yeah no well that's that's ridiculous Al gor was a stiff and completely unrelatable and that that's why he lost lost the he didn't ask Bill Clinton's he didn't want Bill Clinton's endorsement yeah and he distanced himself from Clinton rich rich I got to make mention there's a double reason that the farle is attack ing Cala for even considering Josh Shapiro as governor of Pennsylvania cuz her own husband is Jewish so I've heard their conversations they come up to me you know they give me grief and they say oh man she's going to be controlled by Jews the Vice President in waiting to become president and her own husband who's Jewish so they they claim that she's being double te these people are out of their minds but they're saying that President Obama who theoretically uh that'll be his fourth term if if Camala listens he wants uh Kelly from Arizona is that what he wants I don't I don't I haven't seen that I think he'd be you know a decent second choice I mean I think with Shapiro right he has some executive experience he's popular in Pennsylvania Fox pole at 61% he's a proving vot getter there and it's a crucial swing state probably the crucial swing state and you know he's proba he's not going to deliver the state to her but if he if he increases her vote by 10,000 votes that could matter in a real close Race Kelly you know also an important swing state Arizona you know has a great personal record but is dull as dishwasher uh dishwater I mean he'll he'll just totally disappear as soon as he she picks him and maybe you know that's not the worst thing in the world usually if a Veep is getting a lot of attention it's not a good thing uh I think it'd be crazy though for her to go with this guy Tim Waltz who I think is msnbc's idea of someone who's focusing and appeals to the middle of the country I don't I don't get that at all and even crazier it would be P Budaj so if she does either of those I think that's a gift to Republicans Now Rich uh you've had a LoveHate relationship with President Trump I've had the same relationship going back uh 30 40 years this Trump on the stump now talking about Kamala you know having two identities East Indian black nobody cares and then going after the governor of Georgia Republican when he appeared with Vance at that huge rally how how the how does one try to get him back on track the issues uh that's his sweet spot the issues against Kamala and yet he seems to want to be veering off in the what's going on there yeah I I I think he has been a little discombobulated by this the switch you know we all knew it was going to happen at a certain level or thought at least it could happen but it was still stunning when it happened and the way it happened I mean the media agulation and instantly KLA Harris went from a power vice president to the next coming of Barack Obama you know this generational talents but prior to this point you know Trump had been relatively disciplined he has a really good team that he'd been listening to and he he's he's gotten his his own way I think usually what happens is you know he'll figure out some line of attack that'll work better than what he's been doing and and this interlude will be forgotten but but going after a popular Republican governor in his home state when the guy is trying to elect you Brian Kemp you he doesn't love Donald Trump but but he wants him to win and he's going to do everything possible to to deliver a key swing state to him so even if you don't like him just don't say it you know so that that wasn't a great moment so if they had to do a reset because Vance stumbled out of the box Trump has gone into the personal uh campaigning mode against Cala Harris uh with the Democratic National Convention upon us and they're going to have all kinds of Chaos in Chicago there chaos every day the streets of Chicago just because of all the crime with a socialist mayor what what what what what should the re the r tool be because then it's a Sprint right after they designate them yeah I mean we should brace ourselves she she's going to be ahead if she's not already you know tipped ahead a little bit she's going to be ahead in you know two weeks after the convention and then you'll have to see where the race kind of settles down and then as you say it's like it's a two month campaign it's like a British style general election and he's he's got a lot of material to work with against her right she has the whole Biden record she has all these crazy things she said and then when she tries to disav valon of them you can say well she's a phony and this is kind of a campaign Republicans have run uh over and over again the last 40 years and and very often it works plus whatever they say you know whatever the the glossy magazine profiles are she is not good at this she just is not there she has not haven't heard from her once she has not have a press conference and uh since she was was ascended to uh the vice presidency uh you know running for president yeah it's it's astonishing she not confence she's the beneficiary of one of the most amazing turnabout in American politics and we haven't had one heard one word from her about how she feels about it what she's going to do with it how it happened nothing nothing and because again I I have nothing against her I I had lunch with her one time a few years ago no I think a long time ago five six years ago years ago um but uh but I I would if president Trump asked me I would say just talk about the record talk about your record versus the Biden Harris record yep it's not hard I I totally agree with you and but they've created the sheen around her um we've had one statement basically from her on on the tarmac of Andrew's Air Force Base one sentence that didn't didn't make sense you know so they're going to try to they'll have to do a couple interviews they'll do some friendly interviews and maybe do one interview you know that's that's supposedly more challenging with Leslie stall or something on 60 Minutes otherwise they're keeping her on teleprompter because they're not idiots they know her vulnerability and it's kind of the same as Joe Biden's in a way I mean she's not old but I think I predict I predict that I don't I don't think she's gonna do a debate well yeah I think that'd be hard uh if I were them and she's ahead I I'd be reluctant to do it I think it'd be hard to do it and the thing is Trump trump needs needs a debate or debates because that's going to be one of the main means of exposing her because obviously the media is not going to do it my my perception rich is if you look at 2016 2020 Donald Trump was behind in the polls because a lot of people who get ped won't say they're voting for Donald Trump and then on the day of election the polls turn out not to be as accurate as they thought they would be he's he's neck and neck or slightly ahead now so I think he's in a much better position than he was when he ran in and won in 2016 or in 2020 when we had that unprecedented turn out on both sides yeah he he's been polling better than any any of his general elections and and even now it's um it's it's better than certainly better than 2020 and as good as it was in 2016 and you're right you know one one she needs to to beat him by you know two three points in the National vote to to have the Electoral College fall her away and two you're right you know there might be a point or two that's being missed because people are are wary of telling strangers that they they favor Donald Trump or they're harder to reach for whatever other reason so it's not like a debacle but it's definitely you know it's the the the potential Electoral College landslide that seemed in the offing you know two weeks ago that's definitely off wow well we got to take a break but uh thank you so much for coming on and uh and we'll talk to you again real soon the best thing about rich Lowry is when he comes on with Sid as a weekly guest he listens to the program before he comes on so he comments on whatever Sid or other guests have discussed he's a true radio listener I salute you reach instead of some of the guests who come on and they don't even bother listening because they just have their own agenda well thank you rich
