What this episode covers
00:00 All right, so what are we all going to do tomorrow? We're going to get up. We're going to go vote. If you haven't voted before, you know what? This early voting thing. I was talking about my wife. What did you say, JJ? Yeah, that was a pretty early short or a very short early vote for the runoff. Yeah, it was. But my wife and I early voted last Thursday, this past Thursday. I'll be honest with you, that's a little anticlimactic. 00:30 I mean, yeah, it's convenient, but I really like getting out there and voting on election day, the day that it's going to count, that all the votes are going to be counted. I was like, we're at lunch today and I was like, oh man, I've already voted. I wanted to go vote tomorrow. If you could vote once a week, I'd vote once a week. I would absolutely do that. So you need to get up tomorrow if you haven't already early voted. 00:56 Get up tomorrow and go vote because this is going to matter. The governor's race, that's going to matter. You've got Pamivet, um Alan Wilson, of course, Alan Wilson picking up just on Friday afternoon. um He picked up Trump's co-endorsement, which he's never done before. And everybody's like, what in the world? lot of people are like, oh, I can't believe Donald Trump did that. Why would he do it? Well, this isn't what he did. 01:24 It was a little bit of retribution. I think it was retribution against Henry McMaster because Henry did not deliver. Oh, and President Trump, I got a little news for you here. A little news for you. Don't feel like the Lone Ranger. He hasn't delivered for the state of South Carolina either. So don't feel so bad when Henry McMaster doesn't do what Henry McMaster 01:53 says he's going to do. Tell me how we're better. Literally, tell me how we're better. 02:03 Was he in town today? Oh yeah, yeah, that's right. was, yeah, man, he's giving out those, he's giving out those Order of the Palmetto. You think I'll ever get an Order of the Palmetto? You think I would? JJ's like, you are a very upstanding citizen. am, yes. Yes, I am. I don't know. We'll see. Joey got one. Dr. Orrin Smith got one. I'm going to be, yeah, Joey Hudson got one. 02:31 I'm not even, yeah, you didn't know that? Joey Hudson got the order of the Palmetto. Dr. Orrin Smith got the order of the Palmetto. They're going to be in studio with me tomorrow night. So one of these things is not like the others. One of these things just doesn't belong. Yeah, I'm the one, I'll be the only person in here tomorrow night without an order of the Palmetto on the air. So there you go. It's going to be an interesting night. But one of the races I'm going to be watching is the first congressional district down there with Jenny Costa. 03:01 Now she may, oh, she wants you to say the Costa part because she's from the Costa family down in the low country and they're big in the politics down there. Very wealthy family. But there's a little thing about Jenny Costa Honeycutt. She's a little squishy. 03:25 When a, this is no joke. When a tough vote comes up there in Charleston, uh she excuses herself to go to the bathroom. I'm not even joking about this. She excuses herself to go to the bathroom and then leaves and comes back when the vote's over. Unbelievable what this woman has done. She is going to be the, I'm gonna make a prediction. If Jenny Costa Honeycutt wins that race, 03:54 in the first congressional district. One of two things is going to happen. One of those two, these two things are going to happen. 04:05 She 04:08 is going to lose that race to Nancy La Cour. 04:14 or she is going to be one of the weakest. 04:20 members of Congress that the Republicans have. I'm going to go, you want to talk about a freedom index score? You watch that one. It's going to be a train wreck. You need to hope that Mark Smith wins that race. You need to hope he does. I hope everybody gets out there and votes. So, we'll see what happens. right, WRD Talkline 800-9050-989. Because we need ...
