The debate between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton started out ok and quickly deteriorated. Neither Trump nor Hillary was helped by this debate. Nothing memorable was said and this was a missed opportunity for Trump and his campaign. He never brought up the Clinton Foundation, Hillary’s violation of the Espionage Act, and how she embraces redistribution of wealth through taxation. Trump should learn to use Ronald Reagan’s labels like “tax and spend liberal”. He needs to explain how liberals always hurt the little guy they claim to be for. Trump is not really a conservative and was not prepared to address Hillary's leftist positions. After that, Hillary was taking a quarter of million dollars, in payment, per speech from companies she spoke at. This money could have gone to workers in the companies who paid her. Finally, Craig Shirley, Reagan Biographer, calls in to compare the Trump/Hillary debate to the Ronald Reagan debates.

Tonight is debate night between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton. You don't remember a candidate who just stands there reading statistics and numbers. People want someone who has a grasp of issues but want to vote for somebody they like. After that, we should be beating Hillary significantly. She is disliked by the majority of people in her own party, and is using every trick in her book including: race baiting, freebies, class warfare, and others. This race shouldn’t even be close, but it is. Later, conservatives are not crazy about Trump but will breathe a sigh of relief if he beats Hillary. The decision to vote for Trump is not an endorsement of his principles but a decision to stop her. Finally, President Obama wants us to judge by group pigmentation, but we should be judged as individuals not by our race. Unalienable rights do not apply to groups but to each human being. Many of the Founding Fathers knew slavery was wrong and wanted to put in place a marker that would end it.

Senator Ted Cruz has endorsed Donald Trump for President. Trump is not the perfect candidate but we know what Hillary Clinton will do as President. She will continue to destroy America if she wins. While there are other alternatives to voting for Trump, in reality Americans have to go with Trump to stop Hillary; there’s no other way. Later, this nation was founded on the notion of equal justice. That doesn’t mean that we buy into social engineering or radical egalitarianism. We have seen an absolute travesty of justice with Hillary Clinton. Most of the Hillary emails will not be released by the FBI until after the presidential election. This is a mass government cover up. Later, police officers in Charlotte told Keith Scott to drop his gun a bunch of times. In addition, the gun at the crime scene was found to be fully loaded and with Scott’s fingerprints. This man has a long criminal record, including with dangerous weapons. Now that we have most of the facts, we can speak truthfully. Finally, Joe Miller running for Senate on the Libertarian ticket against Lisa Murkowski in Alaska calls in.

There have been 2 nights of rioting in Charlotte, NC and attacks on police officers. This is absolute anarchy and we cannot accept it. A black man was killed by a black officer in town where the police chief is a black man; there is no racial issue here. Chief Kerr Putney said the man who was shot had a gun and that he got out of his car with that gun. The officers felt threatened and the guy was shot. It makes no sense to get out of your car with a gun and walk towards police. Also, Democrats have shown themselves to be quick to judge cops yet incredibly slow to judge terrorists. We have President Obama and a Justice Department that bend over backwards to give due process rights to Al-Qaeda terrorists involved in the slaughter of Americans on 9/11 and yet when it comes to law enforcement, the politics plays the other way. That’s a bizarre mentality. After that, Benjamin Netanyahu spoke at the U.N. on Thursday and condemned the organization as a farce. The difference between Netanyahu and Obama is the difference between a great leader and a bad one. He and Obama have two completely different ideas about society and the future. Later, Iran is building ICBM’S and stoking terrorism. They want to see the governments in Jordan, Egypt, and, Saudi Arabia collapse and are working with the Russians in Syria. We need to take a stand and make it clear that Iran cannot have nuclear weapons. Finally, Republican VP candidate, Mike Pence calls in to talk about why conservatives should elect Donald Trump.

We’re not one election away from losing this country, we’ve lost the Constitution already, in many respects. Our Framer’s gave us a fire alarm in the Constitution to save our country and its called Convention of States and Article V. Convention of states is not about populism, because ¾ of the states have to ratify what comes out of the meeting. The agenda of the Convention is to stop burdensome regulations and other elements of an out of control federal government. Some amendments that could be proposed are, the establishing of term limits for Congress, term limits for Supreme Court Justices, limits on taxing, limits on spending and limits on federal bureaucracy. After that, when you listen to President Obama or Republicans, there is no future for our children and grandchildren. These people are out of control and have breached the Constitution’s firewall. We the people need to take back control so that the government will have to respond to us, instead of the other way around. We are at a point where even the recourse to a Convention of States could be lost, unless we continually push and commit to executing Article V. Finally, Scott Garrett running for Congress in New Jersey’s District 5 calls in to discuss his campaign.

Some say that Donald Trump is good because he acts like a liberal. They and other public figures have surrendered their principles and they expect us to follow them. We have people insisting that we abandon our principles and vote for Trump. For them it seems a little less education and scholarship would be a good thing. However, we shouldn’t abandon conservatism in defense of Trump. After that, President Obama gave another speech at the U.N. in which he trashed the United States, blamed America for the world’s problems, attacked capitalism, blasted Israel, and pushed a globalist agenda. He does not view America as a positive in the world. He does not view the American people as a force for good in this world. Obama is an embarrassment. Later, the refugees fleeing now are not the same as the Jews who fled during the Holocaust, as Obama has stated. There were no terrorists among the Jews who wanted to kill us to spread a caliphate. ISIS said they would secrete terrorists among refugees and they have. Bringing in refugees with a population that intends violence, means bringing a violent change to America.

Dan Bongino, contributing editor of Conservative Review fills in for Mark. Another round of terrorist attacks happened over the weekend in New York, New Jersey and Minnesota. What is the liberal’s fascination with not saying the word, "terrorism". The left won’t say it, because to them it’s a distraction from their anti-capitalist arguments. And t doesn’t work for them because national security has traditionally been more of a Republican issue. Instead of acknowledging the problem, they ignore terrorism and hope that the issue will dissipate. In addition, Hillary Clinton comes out and says that Donald Trump has no plan to fight terrorism yet she won’t even say the word terrorism. Later, liberals believe the U.S. is the cause of all problems in the world. However, Americans have done well in the U.S. which has done more good than bad in the world. Leftists also blame the U.S. for empire building. If this is true, where is the empire? Japan and Germany were beaten in World War II but were never made to be part of America. After that, liberals dislike the Catholic Church and Christians because they are competitors to the left’s idealism. Any institution or group that stands for liberty and freedom will be opposed by leftists. The left also hates patriotism and seeks to diminish it. Finally, all of a sudden Colin Kaepernick is a social justice warrior but where has he been? Instead of volunteering in his community or local Church, he takes a knee during the National Anthem. The left wants us to respect him, because his actions diminish patriotism.

The Democrats are very excited about the birther issue, which is back in the news, because they think it’s an issue where they can race-bait and attack Donald Trump. But let’s not forget it was the Democrats who invented the issue. It was Hillary Clinton backers pushing the Obama birther rumors during the 2008 Democratic primary. So even if birther rumors didn’t directly come from the campaign, they still came from Democratic Hillary supporters. Later, Joe Biden says there’s no existential threat to America’s security. This is the mindset of this administration. So, nuclear weapons in the hands of the North Koreans and soon in the hands of Iranians and an aggressive Russia and China are no threat? Finally, HUD decrees that limited English speakers are protected under the fair housing act. Now our government is looking for classes to protect even though they don’t need protecting. This is all about lawsuits, this is a new basis for suing landlords.

It’s amazing how a demagogue like President Obama has a 58% approval rating. He and the left have done so much damage to this country. Obama and the left are so comprehensive in changing this society. They control and run schools, most of the media and know how to pack the courts with leftists. We can’t even require people to show ID to vote and yet for every other walk of life you need it. If you object to the left’s agenda, then you are considered a racist or homophobe. It’s up to Americans to teach their kids conservative principles as government schools can’t be relied on. In addition, we have a Republican candidate, Donald Trump, who wants to expand Medicaid, but that’s what Obamacare does. How can you repeal Obamacare if you are embracing Obamacare? Expanding Medicaid beyond its current boundaries is not only irresponsible, but a bad idea. Later, Trump just had a large polling rally and now has a significant increase in the polls after Hillary’s collapse. A few weeks ago the polls in battleground states were moving in Hillary’s direction. The situation is volatile and voters in the end may decide on the candidate based on the candidate’s negatives and personality. Finally, Brain Mast, running for Congress in Florida’s 18th district, calls in to discuss the smears by his opponent, Randy Perkins.

If you question Donald Trump’s policies then obviously you want to elect Hillary Clinton. Any conservative who questions Trump is considered an elitist and doesn’t ever support the working man. If conservatives disagree with Trump, then they are called purists. The pseudo conservative media are telling us this, but Americans don’t carry a battle flag for entitlements, they carry it for liberty. After that Trump’s maternity program includes an earned income tax credit which is basically welfare and will be significantly increased to subsidize childcare for 6 weeks. This maternity program would also be dipping into unemployment funds too for funding. Look at the debt and yearly deficits which are crushing us; we don’t need any more programs and redistribution of wealth. If people actually care about their children and grandchildren they can’t support adding more debt. Now it’s both parties and both nominees that support entitlements. Later, nothing in the letter from Hillary’s doctor mentions anything about her neurological condition. Hillary has collapsed and has mentioned that she experienced head trauma in the past. She needs to update the American people on her recovery from her 2012 concussion.
