0:00.0 | Welcome to a special election day edition of the Liz Wheeler Show airing exclusively on the first TV. I'm Liz Wheeler. |
0:17.0 | Hi guys, I'm Liz Wheeler. You might notice that I'm not sitting in my normal studio. That's because I am in the great free state of Florida right now. |
0:24.0 | I'm here to attend the Santa's election night bash. We will talk about that more on the show tomorrow because we haven't gone to the party yet. So there's not a lot to talk about. |
0:33.0 | But I wanted to introduce myself for those of you who don't know me. I'm Liz Wheeler. I host the aptly named Liz Wheeler Show, which we air episodes all week long talked about all the hot button issues, politics, cultural issues, especially what Republicans can do to actually win back our country. |
0:51.0 | You can find the show on Apple podcasts on Spotify anywhere you watch or listen to podcasts, rumble, YouTube, your favorite venue of choice. |
1:00.0 | I also traveled around and give speeches at college campuses, at conferences all over the country. I'm the lady with the baby in the airport. If you ever see the lady with the stroller in the diaper bag and you're just wondering how she gets through with all that stuff. It's probably me. |
1:14.0 | I'm married to a medical provider who very courageously lost his job. They're actually after the first wave of COVID outbreak because he refused or he declined to take a vaccine that he did not otherwise want. |
1:27.0 | So that's a little picture of who I am. Again, I'd love if you subscribed to my show or you can wait until the end of this special and see if you like it before you subscribe. |
1:36.0 | But what we're going to talk about today, it's election day today. I don't know about you, but there's always that little bit of adrenaline in the air. It's pretty exciting day. |
1:44.0 | Although I think it's honestly a little bit more accurate to call it election season at this point. It's not really just election day anymore with this universal mail in ballot shenanigans and with the early voting. |
1:57.0 | Trust exit polls. So I know exit polls are starting to trickle in once it hits noon, three o'clock, but people are still voting and exit polls are notoriously inaccurate. |
2:07.0 | It's just our way of trying to get into trying to get a peek into what's going on. |
2:11.0 | So we'll talk about results after the results actually come in. I personally expect Republicans to win both houses because not because of any any certain political issue, but simply statistically speaking. |
2:24.0 | The party that holds the White House in the first midterm election that party usually faces a referendum. They usually lose about 25 seats at least in the House of Representatives. |
2:35.0 | So that's just history speaking the history of our country. We'll see how many of the Democrats lose tonight. |
2:40.0 | But what I actually want to talk about today is I want to talk about what this means in a larger sense. Joe Biden regardless of who wins the House of Representatives regardless of who holds the majority in the US Senate. |
2:54.0 | Joe Biden is a Democrat and he is still going to be in the White House for two more years. So if there is this proverbial red wave, which I expect there to be, what does this actually mean? |
3:05.0 | What can Republicans in Congress, especially if they hold majorities in both houses? What can they realistically do over the course of the next two years, not just holding off Biden's radical leftist Marxist agenda, but what can they do proactively? |
3:20.0 | That's what I want to talk about today. And I want to talk about what a huge role you and I play in that specific scenario when the presidency is held by a Democrat, but Republicans hold hopefully a solid majority in both the House and the Senate. |
3:35.0 | Also, we don't know the numbers yet. Speculation is kind of fun, kind of risky, but it's also a little fun to think about 2024. We always think about the presidential election for 2024, but if you think about the congressional elections for 2024, that's actually a more vulnerable election cycle for Democrats than even 2022 is because in the Senate, they have more vulnerable seats. |
4:00.0 | Seats that could easily swing Republican. If Republicans play the next two years, right? And of course, it's our job to make sure that Republicans play the next two years, right? |
4:11.0 | So what I did a day or two ago on Twitter, on Instagram and on locals is I asked you guys, I said, do you have a story from the last two years since Joe Biden was inaugurated that informs how you're going to vote in these midterm elections. |
