Speaker 1: Speaking of disoriented, I want to play for you clips of a visibly disoriented
Sarah Palin.
Now, you might remember that Sarah Palin was the late John McCain's vice presidential running
mate back in 2008.
Thankfully, they lost.
And she was kind of like the opening of the door to cartoonish Trumpism, where, like,
anything goes in some way.
Palin was the predecessor to people like Trump, Madison, Cawthorn, Marjorie Trader, GREENE,
Lauren Boebert, Herschel Walker.
As we saw the normalization of people in completely over their heads in politics.
She recently lost her election trying to become a congresswoman representing Alaska in the
House of Representatives of Washington, D.C.
She recently lost that, and she appeared on the Steve Bannon Real America's Voice War
Room pandemic show, whatever that is.
And she seems to be completely disoriented.
She doesn't know what the hell is going on.
She attacks ranked choice voting.
It's completely wild.
And this was a woman who was almost a heartbeat away from the presidency of the United States.
Think about that.
Speaker 3: Well, you call that, Steve, when you explained what this new fangled cockamamie
system called ranked choice voting is all about, when it doesn't matter if you perhaps
are the most popular or most qualified candidate, I know it.
You can get a whole lot of votes, Steve, but if you don't get enough second or third rankings
from voters who choose another candidate.
Speaker 1: Why?
Listening to Sarah Palin explain ranked choice voting is absolutely delightful in that she
has no idea what's going on.
She doesn't even understand the system under which she lost.
She just has no idea what it's even about.
Speaker 3: It.
You can get a whole lot of votes, Steve.
But if you don't get enough second or third rankings from voters who choose another candidate.
Speaker 1: Right.
Speaker 3: Then you're eliminated.
Or then you get second place and you don't win in as complicated.
You explained it best.
President Trump explained it very well.
Speaker 1: And yeah, Trump really explained this concept well.
He also explained, you know, a thermodynamics really well, just like she would, I'm sure.
Speaker 3: Valid that he had up here warning Alaskans that this newfangled experiment with
ranked choice voting will split votes.
It will allow liberals to skip on in, which is exactly what's happened.
Speaker 1: Thus they can just skip on in and vote.
By the way.
This was Trump's explanation for ranked choice voting fraud.
Speaker 5: Fraud, fraud.
It's a.
Speaker 1: Fraud.
The idea that was his brilliant explanation.
Speaker 3: And it's a it's a very, very potentially fraught with fraud.
Speaker 1: She has no idea to this day why and how she lost.
She genuinely has no clue.
And then, of course, she she these people want to use anger.
They need everybody to be angry.
That's how they operate.
And here is Sarah Palin in this same interview.
And by the way, why Sarah Palin's homes are like the most echoey places ever.
It's like a cave I have never understood.
But here is Sarah Palin in her echoey house saying people should be angry.
She lost at.
Speaker 3: That homes the entire nation.
So I think the entire country should be angry at what's going on with this establishment
system.
And it was the political establishment that created this system with the ranked choice
voting and without encouraging the other Republican to drop out once he got thumped three times.
Others should be outraged about what's going on here.
Right.
Our system is harming the rest of the U.S.. Speaker 1: The everything everything that
has a bad outcome to these people is fraudulent.
And it's sort of the same argument that they would make if we figured out a way to get
rid of the Electoral College and just have a national popular vote, which we should we
obviously should.
They would say, oh, that's harming the country.
Really?
How is it how would it harm the country that the candidate with the most votes wins?
Well, it's not the will of the founder.
It's the exact same type of thing.
If the system leads to me losing, it's a bad system.
And Sarah Palin, there's all there is something comedic about the fact that she doesn't even
get how and why she lost.
And there's an amazing video from election night a couple of weeks ago where she's like
wherever her watch party, her results party is and the information starts coming in that
she lost and she doesn't even really get it.
And at one point, she goes over and she cuts a cake.
And just the absurdity, the visual absurdity of she doesn't really know what's going on,
but they do have a cake there and she's going to move on to the cake.
It is really something to see.
They don't have any clue what's happening.
And there are a number of systems in this country that should be reformed.
And our voting systems are some of them.
And we have to realize that even if they were to be changed, you would then deal with years
of confused people claiming that by virtue of the fact that they lost, it must be a bad
system.
And certainly Sarah Palin is buying into that full speed ahead.
