All the good stuff's down there.

I mean, there appear to be far less Democrat voters than there were in 2024.

That's Larry Schwei- the historian Larry Schweikart's thesis.

He thinks we're seeing probably a, a upwards of about 3 million less voters because of the deportations and the cleaning up of the voter rolls.

He doesn't count, to my knowledge, he doesn't count the voter registration, which he's fully aware of.

So, which I'm not gonna say either one of them were good, but just saying.

Though Hoover at first did lower taxes for the poorest of Americans, Larry Schweikart and Michael Allen, in their sweeping A Patriot's History of the United States: From Columbus's Great Discovery to the War on Terror, stressed that he offered no incentives to the wealthy to invest in new plants to stimulate hiring.

He even taxed bank checks, which accelerated the decline in the availability of mo-money by penalizing people for writing checks.

In September 1931, with the money supply tumbling and the economy reeling from the impact of Smoot-Hawley, the Fed imposed the biggest hike in its discount rate in history.

We're 27 days to election day.

Our guest today is Larry Schweikart, who we recorded several podcasts with in the lead up to the 2024 elections, and I'm proud to say I know Larry because he, about, what, seven weeks before election day, called the exact number of electoral votes President Trump was going to win-

Yep

...

There's, uh, there's another possible explanation.

This one comes by way of historian Larry Schweikart.

He's been commenting on these polls that we're seeing of late that, like they always do, always give Democrats these ridiculous overestimations.

But he's, he's saying that this, this year it may even be worse than ever before because these polls aren't taking into consideration- The dramatic demographic shift that's taken place in the electorate since January 2025.

The news of today is the history of tomorrow.

Don't forget, like, share.

Now, at the same time, upwards of 5 million deceased voters and duplicate registrations have been purged from primarily Democrat voter rolls across the country.

And so this is why the historian Larry Schweikart is arguing that a lot of these polls that we're seeing of late, that, th- that, uh, like they always do, inordinately give these Democrats this ridiculous overestimation.

Schweikart's argued they're not taking into consideration the dramatic shift that's taken place in the electorate since January of 2025.

So what this means, particularly the de- deportations and the voter roll purges, is that the actual total of Democrat voters could be 2 to 3 million less than conventional polling models assume.
