00:00Here's a guy running in a race in Ohio that not only has a shot, but the polls show him
00:06tied, if not leading, in a state that should not have a Democrat Senator Ohio, which is turning
00:13ruby red. I've interviewed him before. He's a fantastic candidate. His name is Bernie Moreno.
00:17Bernie, thanks for spending some time with us. We appreciate it.
00:20Oh, happy to be on, Dan. Thank you so much. It was great seeing you at the RNC. What a great
00:23week that was. Oh, it was fantastic. And man, did you tear it up. After that interview, we got so
00:29much good feedback. I think my audience, the feedback I got about your Senate race, where I
00:35believe I'm stating an accurate number, the aggregate polls show you either tied or ahead
00:41of Sherrod Brown, who, I mean, he was to the left of Kamala Harris. What he's doing in Ohio,
00:46we can't figure out. But one of the things I heard that they really liked about you is your
00:50business experience, but the way you related the business experience to discussing government.
00:54A lot of people in business run for office, but they never quite make the connection.
00:58You seem to really get it. And where I want to go with this is this storm response by the
01:03government has been pathetic, Bernie Moreno. If you're a United States Senator and a business guy,
01:08you know you'd be fired if you were a disaster response company and you handled it like this.
01:12What does the storm response say about this bloated bureaucratic government? And how does
01:18a guy like you get in there and clean this mess up? Well, it's a total and complete lack of
01:23leadership, Dan. I mean, the reality is they got their priorities backwards. They're thinking about
01:27equity, inclusion. They're trying to figure out how to resettle migrants instead of how to take
01:32care of American citizens. They should have been on the ground immediately supporting people.
01:38This is what President Trump will do is not only provide the leadership, but put to nomination
01:44people in his cabinet that will actually run these agencies efficiently, effectively. As a United
01:50States Senator, I get to confirm that person. Look, we're going to do some great things for
01:53the American people that can be summarized this easily. We're going to put the interest of America
01:59first among all, and we're going to use our taxpayer dollars to benefit American citizens
02:05hardstop. That's going to be the philosophy of this administration and this Republican
02:09Senate going forward. We're talking to Bernie Moreno running for the United States Senate
02:14in the state of Ohio, a critical state. Bernie, how does a guy like Sherrod Brown
02:21survive as long as he does in the state of Ohio? I mean, real patriots. Listen, I live in Florida.
02:26There are a lot of folks on the West Coast of Florida move from here, from Ohio. Some go back.
02:31It's, you know, they come back and forth. So when I was running over there in Florida, District 19,
02:35you meet a lot of folks. It's an amazing state, really powerful, great cities,
02:40but it's turning redder. The numbers speak for themselves. That's a fact. It's turning
02:44redder and has been for a long time. It's not even so much a swing state anymore.
02:48How does a chameleon like Sherrod Brown, who is a devout leftist, again, just look it up,
02:54folks. Don't take my word for it. Look at his voting record. How does a guy like that survive
02:59as long as he did in Ohio? I mean, what's this guy's trick? He's running the same playbook and
03:06has run the same playbook as Kamala Harris. Look, Kamala Harris is a left-wing lunatic
03:11that shouldn't even be getting 20% of the votes in this country, but she just lies.
03:16Look at her interview last night with Brett Baier. They just lie and lie and lie. They don't
03:22actually ever defend their own positions, their own voting records. They just pretend they're for
03:27American energy when you know they're going to kneecap American energy. They're going to ban
03:31fracking. They want us all driving electric vehicles. They want us to send hundreds of
03:35billions of dollars to foreign countries. They want us, they buy into this idea that guns are
03:40the ones that commit crimes, not people. They defund the police. They disrespect the police.
03:45They're going to weaken our military. They've made our schools a mess. They've made our
03:49communities a mess, but they don't actually ever defend their record or their votes.
03:54They just pretend there's something else. Sherrod Brown's gotten away with that for 50 years, Dan.
03:59Elvis was performing live in concert when Sherrod Brown was running for office. That's how long this
04:05guy's been there. Talking to Bernie Moreno, he is tied if not ahead in many polls in the red state
04:13of Ohio where there is a dreadful deep blue communist United States center. My words,
04:19it's all right. I'm just telling you it's who he is. Bernie Moreno, I read an article
04:24about two, three months ago, sitting in a gym. I'm sitting there on that vertical bench press
04:29machine. A fact you don't need to know, but I'll throw it in there. Guy comes up, he's talking to
04:33me, and I'm reading this article about Sherrod Brown. It said this is the first election cycle
04:38for this deep blue, really, he's like a San Francisco liberal in Ohio, that this is the
04:45first election cycle where working class voters in a lot of these Youngstown-like locations and
04:50elsewhere, that huge majorities of them are now moving over to the Republican Party. They're
04:56realizing they got screwed by the Democrats and Sherrod Brown for a long time. You're there.
05:00You're knocking on doors. You're doing debates. You're doing town halls. Nobody knows Ohio
05:05politics better than you. Are you seeing the same phenomenon that the Republican Party is now
05:10becoming the staple party for the dirt under the fingernails working class crowd? Oh, absolutely.
05:16We're the ones that are going to bring American manufacturing back. Look, they want to forgive
05:20student debt for people who went to Ivy League schools that learn about 15 genders. We're the
05:25ones that say, hey, look, go out there and get a good job where you can have a home, you can afford
05:29a car, you can afford to raise a family, that you don't have to go to college to live the American
05:34dream. These, this party, the Democrats of today are the party of the left coast and east coast
05:40leftists that look down on anybody who goes to work. Look, my opponent's a perfect example.
05:45This guy grew up wealthy, was a full-pay student at Yale. And by the way, Dan, are you ready for
05:49this one? Majored in Russian studies, majored in Russian studies and goes into elected office
05:55his whole life. He pretends to be a working class hero. How can you be for the working class and
06:00support 10 million to 12 million illegals coming to this country that drives up prices? How can you
06:05be for the Green New Deal scam and be for the working class? I mean, this guy doesn't represent
06:09working class Americans at all. And the reality is the people of Ohio are realizing that we're
06:13going to kick his butt this November, 19 days. Bernie Moreno is the GOP nominee for the United
06:20States Senate in Ohio. Bernie, what's the website? I have a couple of questions, but I just want to
06:23make sure you get it out. Yeah, it's berniemoreno.com. We need all the help we can get.
06:28This guy raises obscene amounts of money, Dan, on ActBlue, which you and I know is probably a scam,
06:34but he raised $31 million last quarter, 31 million in one quarter, record-setting amount.
06:40So berniemoreno.com, we need all the help we can get, Dan, from your listeners.
06:44And it's more no, like M-O-R-E-N-O, correct? Am I spelling that right?
06:48Correct. Bernie, but I'll be the good Bernie. I'm going to rehabilitate
06:52the name Bernie in American politics. Thankfully, you're the opposite of the
06:57other Bernie. He's like the Bizarro Bernie from the old Superman comics.

08:16Bernie Marino. I did a site early on. It was one of my first sites on the president's detail.
08:22Obama had just gotten into office. And where did I get sent? The Caterpillar plant in Youngstown,
08:26Ohio. I was there for a couple weeks. And dealing with the community and the police officers,
08:31that is working-class America. The Democrats call it flyover country. We call it home.
08:37That's what we call it. And I found the place really fascinating. I really enjoyed it. I was
08:42just kind of really getting into politics, even though I was still working in the Secret Service.
08:45But I was finding politics fascinating. And it's been an area, like I said before, where
08:49it's trending red because the working class realizes it's been screwed over.
08:53But I'd like you to comment on this specifically. I know you're not running in Michigan. I understand
08:57that. Mike Rogers is running at Slotkin. But it applies nonetheless in working-class Ohio.
09:02How is it that some union bosses, not necessarily union workers, matter of fact,
09:08definitely not union workers, are supporting this green new scam transition to electric vehicles,
09:15knowing full well, you and I both know this, that number one, they require fewer autoworkers,
09:21so you're probably going to use your job. It's basically a battery, some wheels. I mean,
09:24it's more complicated, but you get the point. A gas-powered engine is a lot more parts.
09:28And second, you're not only going to lose your job because it requires fewer workers,
09:31you're going to lose your job because nobody wants them. They're sitting on lots. Ford is losing
09:37something like $60,000 a truck they sell. This is the biggest scam in America. If you're Caterpillar
09:43Heavy Equipment or a car company, this green new scam that Sherrod Brown loves
09:48is putting you and your family on the unemployment line. I mean that in the literal sense.
09:53Oh, absolutely. Well, let me just give you two data points. Number one, Ohio produces more
09:57internal combustion engines than any other state in the country. So it's the next essential threat
10:02for us. Most of our farmers, about 30% of their crops go into liquefied fuels. So this irrational
10:08move to electric vehicles is insane. It will hand our auto industry over to China. Look,
10:13Sherrod Brown wanted an electric pickup truck plant to go into Lordstown, Ohio.
10:18I tried to save the factory by proposing to create a ride-sharing service called Cruise.
10:23We'd keep it there. We'd make the Chevy Cruise right here in Lordstown, Ohio. Sherrod Brown
10:28fought for an electric pickup truck. You and I both know anybody who drives a pickup truck
10:32does not want it to be electric, right? They want a big diesel engine. They want the car to be able
10:37to haul and move, not worry about having to go charge your thing for 18 hours. Well, what's the
10:42result? The electric pickup truck factory ended up being a Ponzi scheme and closed. That plant
10:48that used to employ 4,000, 5,000, 6,000 union workers, completely closed. The reason the union
10:53bosses support the Democrats, Dan, is very simple. They're totally and completely corrupt.
10:57This guy, Sean Fain, is the most corrupt UAW leader in history. And that's saying something.
11:03This guy gets bought off, paid off. He flies private jets, enjoys, God knows what perks,
11:08off the backs of the workers. The reality is the union workers are going to vote for me. They care
11:13about the Second Amendment. They're not into this trans-ridiculousness. They don't want to
11:18have surgeries on children to transition them, quote-unquote, whatever the hell that means.
11:22They are going to vote for me. They're going to show up in a big way in places like Warren County
11:27and Trumbull County. In fact, that's where I am right now, driving up the vote. We're going to
11:31win here. We're going to win Ohio. We're talking to Bernie Moreno. Stands a damn good chance of
11:36being the next U.S. Senator, taking over for a terrible Democrat, Sherrod Brown, in Ohio.
11:42Last question for you, Bernie Moreno, and it's BernieMoreno.com. I believe the sleeper issue
11:48of the race, and I had Eric Hovde from Wisconsin. I'm sure you guys may have met, or you run in the
11:52same cycle. You run into people at candidate events. He's running a great race there as well.
11:57This is turning into a huge issue in Wisconsin. This issue of boys in girls sports and men in
12:04women's sports is an atrocity. The fundamental unfairness of it and the culture war, it's not
12:10just about a volleyball game. It's about a bigger cultural war on objective truth in America.
12:15This is turning into the sleeper issue of the cycle. I'm hearing candidates coming on the show.
12:20We interview a lot of them telling me this is the first thing people bring up in town halls.
12:24You're out there campaigning. I got about two minutes left. Your general thoughts on that.
12:28Oh, absolutely. It's a huge issue because my opponent voted against prohibiting men from
12:32playing women's sports. He voted against prohibiting children from getting sex reassignment
12:38surgeries. Look, Dan, I'm a dad of two girls, a grandfather of two young grandbabies. I don't
12:42want guys dressing in locker rooms with them when they're kids. I don't want men competing with them
12:47in sports. We had Riley Gaines out to Ohio about a month or so ago. She tells a story about what
12:53she had to put up with with Leah Thomas. That's just insane. Let me tell you something. Ohio is a
12:57big sports state. We care a lot about sports. This issue is ridiculous. The world is laughing
13:04at us, Dan. The Chinese generals must be sitting there looking, God, what is going on with America
13:09when they're having this insane conversation? My opponent is just a far left radical liberal.
13:14This is the easiest way to show people how out of touch he is with Ohio.
13:18Bernie Moreno, I feel really great about your race. I think you've got a damn good chance. If
13:24you want to send him a few bucks, you want to send some support his way. Bernie Moreno,
13:28like more, no, M-O-R-E-N-O dot com is the website. Bernie, good luck. Let me tell you,
13:34your appearance on our show at the RNC, we got a really, really solid amount of feedback. People
13:39around the country really resonated with that message you got. So thanks a lot for running.
13:44Good luck, my friend. Keep us updated on the campaign.
13:47Thanks, Dan. And let's get everybody in Ohio who's listening to go vote early. You can vote today.
13:51Go get it done. My man. Thank you. Thank you. Folks, how many, again, there's another, he's
13:58actually running. He doesn't want to lose. He's telling you to vote early too. I'm sorry. I don't
14:03mean to sound like a toolbox. I just, I'm not running. I don't need your vote. I'm not running
14:08for anything. I just can't lose this. We got a country to save. Please go in person and vote
14:15early. Please, please, please. I'm begging, actually begging. No pride, no shame in this
14:23game at all. Please go in person and vote early. Thank you.
