Today's show is pre recorded. Y'all know what time y'all don't know. Y'all all suit the don giving them like the milking bus things and it's y'all true. Steve listening together for STU. Please don't join. You gotta turn you, you gotta turn to turn out, turn got to turn out to turn the water to the water. Got me come come on your baby now. Uh huh, I show will a good morning everybody. You're listening to the voice, Come on dig me now, one and only Steve Harvey got this radio show. Man, Hi got here. I really can't explain it. Only by the grace of God, that's all I can really tell you. I was talking with a buddy the other day and he was telling me. He said, Man, he had an interesting philosophy about it. He said. You know, you can have dreams and visions, he say, but God, God will never show you what all he has for you. He won't show you all of it because he knows you will mess it up. And you know what, man, I thought about that, And how true is that? Okay? I know that I got a radio show. I didn't see it. It's just become this major blessing for me. I didn't see it. But if I would have seen it and known when he had planned on giving it to me, I would have messed it up because Number one, my first question would have been to him, why I got to wait so long? Why don't I go down hill and start on the radio now? And then I be in radio and then tidy see that God? But see the thing about God is God don't need your help a matter of fact, that he don't really want it. All he want is you to love him and obey him. If you can do them two things I think. I think I could be wrong. I think he'd be really cool with us. So had I known about these blessings that he had for me, I would have messed him up because I would have put my thinking in the figuring process, and that would have jacked it all up. That's the first thing I asked him, why I got to wait so long? And then if he has shown me what I was gonna have to do to get it, I would have showed messed that up. Man, I ain't gonna do that. I ain't even to do all of that. Wait a minute, I got to go through all of these mishaps in my life. So when I get the radio show, I have something to share. Man, why don't I just read a couple of books and share that experience with them? Now, See, I want you to know what you're talking about. I want you to be transparent. I want people to be able to identify with your struggle and apply they struggle to it and see that they can get over. See. God never shows you all of it because he know will mess it up. I wouldn't have any books. I certainly please know, I would not be the host of Family Field. Can't tell you that. It is amazing man, how God works. And my invitation to everybody today is allow God to work. You know, you can ask him why all you want to. And from time to time I still do no good for me, But that old why me, old woe is me? Lord? Thing that don't really get it for me, because when I start asking him why, I'm asking somebody who has a thought process so high above mine that there's no way if he told it to me, I wouldn't even get it. You wouldn't need I don't how bright you think you are, man, you just ain't gonna get how and why he does it his way. You're not going to understand it. But he has a plan for each and every one of us. And if we adhere to the plan, if we submit ourselves to his will and just say, Okay, God, what you want me to do? I am telling you it is the best way to live. Now. You can also do it the way I did it early on. You can just do what you want to do and see how I go from now. And I will tell you from personal experience, it's not going to go good. My wife and I were talking the other day and she said something women. I had to write it down. She says, Steve, you know the funny thing about sin? She says, sin casts you more than you want to pay and causes you to stay longer than you want to stay. I ask my word where she got it from. She says, some old person told it to it. She says, sin casts you more than you want to pay and causes you to stay longer than you want to stay. That's the problem, man, about doing what you want to do. Because we are all sinners. Man, all of us, all of us, every last one of us are sinners. You will be a sinner until you die. Now, you could be saved by grace. But you're going to be a sinner man. You are going to make mistakes. You are going to in your life knowingly do wrong. I bet you will. I don't know who you think you are. I don't know who you've been listening to. But get this, we are sinners. We were born into a world that is sinful. Now it's okay, it's okay, it's our world. But we can make the best of it because we can form a relationship with God and we can go to war with this thing, you know, and we can win. You can actually get over. Being born into this world is not an end all. That doesn't mean you're doomed, nah man, because God is available to give you life, and not only give you life, but give it to you more abundantly. I have more of an abundant life than I've ever had. If you took away the finances, trust and believe, I have so many things I could tell you that I'm grateful for. For my wife, for my children, man, for my family, for the few friends that I have, for the work that I do, man for the respect that some people that I feel around some people from the repute Haitian I've earned. Now I ain't cool with everybody. I got that. I'm cool. I ain't cool with everybody. Everybody ain't cool with me. Everybody don't like me. Man, get past that right there. I don't care what you do. Everybody ain't gonna like you. Some people didn't like Jesus. What did he do? What did he do wrong to anybody? Show it to me where he was just out there, just messing over folks, and you could justify all that happened to him. Just show it to me. But he knew everybody ain't gonna like me. I just come to save y'all. You understand, I got you. Ain't feeling me. You're gonna spit on me. You're gonna hang me up there, You're gonna pierce my side. You're gonna do all that to me. When you get through, I still love you. That's a powerful statement. Man, God will take care of you if you form this relationship with him. He has something for you. He has a plan for you that is beyond your imagine. He will give you the desires of your heart. But he also has some stuff in store for you that you're not even asking for. That he is willing to ship to an address that belongs to you as long as you stay on the right path and are trying your best, God to ship you to blessing anywhere. Because please know He's done it to me. I'm a living witness to this that God will ship you blessings. And you ain't gonna be perfect. But if he know your heart, man, if he know you trying to do better, if he see you trying to change, if he see you trying to get it right, he understands that you're gonna stumble all the way through this thing. But if he know your heart and he know you trying to get it right, and you're doing the best you can, boy, here ships some stuff your way. Man, you really be tripping, man, You would really be tripping. Steve Harvey got a radio show. Man. It's crazy, ain't it.

Yeah, you're listening, all right, nobody, We're back in time for national news, entertainment news calling. What you got? Well? First of all, you know we talked about this earlier. We are sending our prayers of healing, UH to your friend Steve, our friend Ricky Smiley and his family. Uh. Ricky's daughter. If you guys have not heard, Ricky's daughter Aaron was shot three times while in a car in Houston. She was going to get something to eat. This this is early reports. According to ABC thirteen News in Houston. Uh there is a restaurant in Houston called water Burger. It's a Hamburger fast food chain. And she she was with some friends I assume in the car, and the police believe that this incident has to do with road rage and road rage. Tommy is from Houston. Junior is from Houston. It is a problem in Houston. It is a big problem in Houston. And the suspect pulled up to the car and opened fired, and three people, including Ricky Smiley's daughter Erin, were in the car, but managed to drive to the hospital. As you know, our hearts were broken. We've devastated when we all heard the news. Steve, you just said that you text Ricky and you talked to him last night. Yeah, I'm just texting. We didn't talk, you know, I don't Yeah, you know, I try not to get in a person's space times like this because you don't know what at But I did text him. He text me right back. He told me he was good. He said his daughter's fine. He said he was waiting to see it. They won't let him in because you know, it's a hospital, it's COVID thing, it's code. This is crazy, man. You can't see a loved one, a person that's dying from COVID can't get a visit there, you know what I mean. And so you got your other relatives in there for us something else, and you still can't get visited. So he's waiting, hoping to see his little girl and then um, you know, she's got to get transferred somewhere. So he's hoping right in there that he'll get to see us somewhere. So he said everything was fine. She had surgery. It was a success and good, thank god. I hope, I just hope she. I hope she has no complications after that. You know, even if you get through it, just nothing that you just got to carry for the rest of your life. Yeah, I mean, you know, but there is a mental thing that comes with being shot. Oh yeah, missus trauma. It's post traumatic. I don't want to get into my total pass but there's some stuff that go with that. Yeah, you know, you kind of don't you're not going to talk about that though, you're nothing. I'm gonna let that go. Well, we're praying for Aaron and Ricky and prayers. Does anybody has anybody been arrested or anybody knows they have not? They no, that not as of now. Well, well that's what I'm saying. Maybe I just didn't want to get too deep into the case, y'all. They may have somebody so or Ricky may say something more advanced than what we're saying. So um, so, you know, recovery. Aaron is recovering from surgery and we just have to keep praying, lifting her up in prayer, and lifting Ricky up and prayering. You know. You know what bothers me more than anything. We are so and I'm with this movement that's happening right now. Black lives matter. I just I can't wait for black lives to matter to each other. But we're not killing each other. I can't wait for that, man, for everybody, it's for us too as a piece. Then let's all get on this then, yeah, and quick killing each other because we're doing that at an alarming rate. Man. Yeah, yeah, yeah, you know, there's there's some things we have to do. But it's going to take a concerted concert, concerted effort on black men's part. It's going to take up a lot of black men to come together to reel in these younger black men. And that's all it is to it, simple as that. Yeah, yeah, all right, uncle, Well it's time to get caught up on today's headlines on ladies and gentlemen. Miss Anne Tripp, thank you, thank you everybody. And here's this Anne Trip with the news. And let me talk about a little bit about Ricky Smiley. You guys just did what I just want to reiterate certain things. Yeah, he says, his daughter Aaron, underwent surgery reportedly successfully and that's good. We prayed after she ended up as an innocent bystanders. She was shot three times by a road rage government apparently. Smiley says his daughter was on her way to a water burger Sunday night just to get a little something to eat. It's near Holcombe and at last word, Rickie Smiley's daughter was expected to survive. As we said, they said, Ricky did text to Steve and say that things are successful. Police say three other victims in another car were shot, but they're expected to survive as well. Authorities still looking for that shooter. Atlanta mayor Kesha lance Bottom says she's tested positive for the coronavirus. She has no symptoms, but she got tested because she noticed her husband's sleeping a lot. They both have it.

In fact, White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows tells Fox News he's on it.

Bubba Wallace had responded to President Trump tweets saying that Bubba Wallace should apologize and called the news incident a hoax. Bubba Wallace is not apologizing. In fact, posted a message to his young fans reminded them to combat hate with love, even when it's hate from the President. Even even Mitch McConnell, who I can't stand on. Marba Wallace had nothing to apologize for. Lindsey Graham. Just just let me get my name right. I'm Lindsay Graham. Mamma Wallace has absolutely nothing to apologish. Hold up at thirty four minutes after the hour, more to Barns Show. Right after this, you're listening to show, all right, everybody, Um, Carla, we we are. We had a lot of violence over the weekend. It was a very violent weekend. Yeah, it's just I'm so sick of this shootings across America. This is unbelievable. Eighty seven people shot in Chicago, sixty three people shot in New York, the governor of Georgia, Brian camp I've heard that he is thinking or has deployed the National Guard troops after a violent week in Atlanta. Now, according to CNN, you guys at least six children ranging in ages of six to fourteen, while all shot doing everyday things like riding in the car, walking in the mall. That's right, Tommy, playing in the yard, just doing it with their cousins. In Atlanta. We talked about eight year old so Corria Turner. She was killed in Birmingham in the mall. And we've been to this mall, the Galleria Mall and Hoover, Alabama. An eight year old boy, his name is Rota DeMarco Giles. He was killed in Washington, DC. Eleven year old Devon mcneild was shot and killed while visiting his family in Washington, d C. They say it was a group of men outside in the area shooting in the area. Devon's grandfather was a guardian angel. His family they are just heartbroken and devastated. In Chicago, Natalia Wallace, seven years old, was playing in the yard and three guys just started shooting in front of the house in that area. This is it has to stop. We have African American mayors that are pleading. Atlanta Mayor Kesha Lamp's Bottoms, also Chicago's Mayor Lori Lightfoot, Washington, DC's Mayor Muriel Browser. All are just fed up and we are just tired of all of this violence. Steve, we're killing you. Well, look until we as black men joined together our forces, older black men, middle aged black men, young black men of statue, young black men who are trying to say, until we get together and get back and start dealing with our youth the way we need to in terms of mentoring, we can stop the complaining because and I understand everybody's tired of it, but the only way we're going to fix this problem is we've got to go back and put our arms around these young men and mentor. It's the only way. I don't have another answer for you. The government ain't coming. The government is not coming because they don't even know what to do. But see, the only ones that know what to say is us who are from these same conditions. Now, because you are in poverty don't mean you have to go that route. And so what we've got to do is those of us who come from poverty have got to grab these young men and show them alternative way. I don't have another answer. If there's a better answer, I love to hear it. But this is something we could all do now. Everybody can mentor somebody. You got to grab these young men and give them an alternate that. Everybody don't want to be a gangster. That's a gangster. Some people get you pulled into the life. Some people think there is no other life. Everybody that's a gangster don't want to be a gangster. Everybody don't want to play as a gangster. Everybody don't want to make their bones. Everybody don't want to go to jail to prove they down what they set. Everybody don't want to gang bang. That's gangbanging. Man. When I was in LA and I used to meet with gangbangers and stuff like that. Every time I walk out, it's hard. You can't talk to you. Yeah, man, you got someone I could do anything. It's hard. I just want a chance. Yeah, yeah, man, it's cast. Nobody want to go to jail to prove to you'll set you down. Then you get it in and find out that you'll set ain't down with you or anybody helping your baby get raised. Anybody's sitting your mama. No money. That ain't how this work. Man. Gangbanging is most useless waste of damn time and energy and talent that you'll ever see. And if we don't get together as black men and tell us to our young black men, we're failing. Yeah. And I have a minutoring program that does that. But it ain't enough. It's not enough. I'm not reaching enough. I can't get to everybody, but all of us unified can mentoring matters, mentoring changes lives. I got proof of it. Yeah, thank you, Thank appreciate. Yeah, man, let's switch gears.

There you go, up Here we go. Strawberry Letter. Subject I want my man to spoil me. Dear Stephen Shirley. I've been dating my boyfriend for two years, and it was really good. For the first year. We spent a lot of quality time together and got to know each other about going on some great dates. Well, now that we've been together for a while, and he started saying that he loves me. He feels that's enough to make me happy. He won't do the things he did in the beginning. I don't get flowers any mold. He doesn't take me to lunch like he used to. When we go on dates. It is because I asked him or make plans for us in advance. We've been talking about marriage and looking at rings. He's loving and we have an emotional connection, but I want to be spoiled and he no longer does that. I've been married before, and although my ex husband and I did not get along, he didn't make a big deal out of my birthday, holidays and special occasions to let me know that I am loved and appreciate it. That's all I need my boyfriend to do. And I try not to mention how my ex husband did things, but I can't help but drop hints here and there. I had a birthday recently and we're limited on celebrating in public because of COVID nineteen, so I figured he would do something special. He got me flowers from the grocery store, and he picked up olive garden for my birthday dinner. I didn't even get a card. By the way, I've been withholding sex, just like he's been withholding the sweet things he used to do for me. I just make up excuses without telling him why I don't want to have sexually. Am I wrong for feeling this way? Is it okay to tell him that I want to be spoiled without sounding like a spoil brett? I don't you dam well? You know what, You've been dating your boyfriend for two years. In the beginning, you guys spent quality time together, you know, going on great dates, and it's always good. You know, in the beginning. It's always good in the beginning because you're getting to know each other and it's and it's fun. But now time has passed and you say your man isn't doing the things he did in the beginning. You don't get flowers anymore, no lunch dates or if you guys even do anything. You planned it so for your birthday due to COVID nineteen, your plans were limited. He picked up takeout from Olive Garden and flowers from the grocery store. And you've been withholding sex and making up excuses not to be intimate with your man because deep down you're really angry at your boyfriend because he is not spoiling you. You all have been looking at rings, so obviously you know you're ready for the next step. You guys have been talking about marriage, but girl, listen to me. Communication is the key. Tell him how you feel, Tell your man how you feel. You mentioned your ex husband and how he used to spoil you, but you guys didn't get along, so that really doesn't matter because you guys went your separate rays, you got a divorce, so who cares. But now you want to drop hints to your boyfriend and tell him how your ex husband used to spoil you. Don't be petty. That's petty. Don't be petty, and don't be vindictive. Just talk to your man. Tell your man you love him for him, but you need to feel wanted. You want to feel desired and spoiled and need and just tell him all the things that you want. He could oppromise, He can hear you out if he really loves you, and there you are, You'll you'll get these things. But I understand how you feel. I'm a woman. I understand what you're saying. But bringing up your ex husband and what he used to do that, that's that's out of order. That's petty and vindictive. Stee, I agree, I agree totally. I think she had a good response to the letter. I can't find nothing wrong with that. So let me just talk to you from a different perspective. Here we go. Oh, you've been dating to Do for two years, and it's good in the beginning, ain't it, ain't they all? Yeah, ye, all of it's good in the beginning. Yeah. Oh, if it ain't good in the beginning, what is it? Oh? But every year or so then it guest started changing a little bit. He stopped doing the great things that he used to do. He tell me loves me, and he feels that that ought to be enough to make me happy. And he won't do the things I did in the beginning. I don't get flowers anymore. He don't take me to LUN's like he used to when we go on dates. It is because I asked him. We've been talking about marriaging, looking at rings. He's loving and we have an emotional connection, but I want to be spoiled and he no longer does that. Well, let me stop right him a little bit later on. See, you decided to tell me and call it what it is that you've been doing. So what you've been doing is you've been withholding sex because you want to be spoiled. News flash coming from Uncle Steve. Men like to be spalled too. Oh, news flash, men like to be spalled too. So why are you withholding sex? Maybe that's why you ain't got no damn flower. Maybe that's why he ain't drug your ass? Nowhere to eat? About to give a damn about no COVID? We ain't having sex up in him? Eat? What's in refrigerator. Men like to be spalls too. Now we on to something. When I come back, I'm share some real mess with y'all. Parts of coming up at twenty three minutes after the hour man like the beat small tell yeah, two, you're listening, all right, let's go ahead and get a part two of your answer. Man. Let's recap this letter to day. Yeah, you know this lady been dating this man two years. He used to do all this stuff, great dates, talking, laughing, buying him stuff. Now after two years, he didn't told her he loved her, and he don't do the things he did in the beginning. She don't get the flowers no more. He don't take it at gonna lunch like he used to. You gotta ask him do nothing. We've been talking about getting married and he's loving y'all got emotional connection, but I want to be small spoiled and he no longer does that. Nah. Then she didn't told us later on the letter, so she didn't with hell sex? Okay, well here we go. So now we ain't having sex and you want some more? What flowers? Dinners? Romantic? Oh hope, let me ask something. We ain't having sex, though, but you want some mo what Colin, She wants more flowers, romantic dinners, birthday celebration, lunch dates, dinner dates, all of that. Okay, Well, guess what he wants. He wants some more damn sex. So now now we had a stand problem. Na, I think we have solved this letter and you weren't looking for this. Lady, ain't gonna beat the more damn flowers. And then after that, right there, she said, I've been married before, and although my ex husband and I didn't get along, he made a big deal out of your birthday, okay, holidays and special occasions to let me know that I'm loved and appreciate it. Okay, So what y'all get, divorce faults? All that? Yeah, yeah, all that damn love it? It made you feel special and all this loving occasions and all let you know you feel appreciated. What was the divorce fault? What loved you and appreciated you? And he did things on your special days, birthdays, holidays, anniversaries and everything. But he decided to do it for a couple other people too. It was multiple people because he was really that loving and carried, she said in a letter they didn't get along Steve they didn't get along. Why they didn't get along? She didn't say, well, I didn't see it. But see, listen to me. If they didn't get along and he was doing all this and he was loving, then it must be her fault again. See here we go with her again. The common demand doma denominator so far, and these men's is you men's men's. That's all I need my boyfriend to do is try not to and I try not to mention how my ex husband did things. But I can't help. Okay. So now you bringing up your damn ex husband to your boyfriend, I got news for you. That's another reason he to quit buying you stuff. Let your damn ex buy If you're gonna keep telling me about how your ex husband was, then you must want your damn ex husband. We'll get his ass to buy your flowers. Now. On your little birthday you had doing COVID, he stopped at olive garden, got your some olive garden, and went to the grocery store and got your ass some flowers. You ain't appreciate that you wanted some mode. Well, what would your ex husband have done doing COVID? Because nobody has ever had COVID before. This is the first time everybody's had everybody's having a birthday doing COVID. This the first time we've had it doing a pandemic. So now, what did your ex? Would you? What would your ex have done during the damn pandemic? That would have been way better than your boyfriend. See you strike me as a woman who wants everything laid at your feet and nine am, okay, you can want that. That's cool. Carlin said it best. She a woman, she get it. Everybody want to be spoiled. I'm in the spoiler woman business too. But now what you came to do with whole sex? Now let me tell you what.

Baby everywhere those of this church. And now won't you come? What show code up at the time you're listening to Welcome back to Steve Hardy Morning Show Call. What's the latest? End is coronavirus? What is what's going on? Well? You know what? This is something that I heard yesterday in a move that it shouldn't surprise anyone considering the fact that COVID nineteen is a respiratory illness. Dozens of scientists that the coronavirus is airborne, and more than two hundred scientists from around the world have signed onto an open letter to the World Health Organization, and they're arguing that the disease can be transmitted through small particles that travel through the air. So you're probably saying, okay, so what's the difference, right, what's the difference? Well, the World Health Organization, who has maintained that the virus is primarily spread through large droplets expel when an infected person sneezes or cough. But as these doctors see it, the virus is airborn, so it could linger in the air longer and infect those who actually breathe. But why aren't we talking about this when the president already told y'all ninety nine percent of the people is all right from this, And he didn't tell y'all ain't what he didn't see. That is what he said, And he shouldn't have said that one hundred and thirty thousand people have died from that. That don't sound harmless. If that sounds harmless to you, you're an idiot. But it's because he doesn't care. See, as long as it's not him and as long as he wins reelection, that's the only thing that matters to him. So he's distancing himself from this COVID thing. Remember when he talked about it every day on TV like they were doing something about it. When the death, Yeah, he got away from it. Now he's turned his attention again, y'all. Here he comes attacking Black Lives Matter, attacking Bubba Wallace, attacking NASCAR for getting rid of the Federate flag, talking about people that want to get rid of these statues are great forefathers.

See, you ain't telling a judge in New York you ain't turning in your tax forms. You're gonna turn him in. You can do that as president because you got all his power. But if he loses in November, he knows what's going Listen to me. Michael Cohen was going to jail, Manefit going to jail. Flynn was going to jail. Roger Stone going to jail. These all his boys going to jail. Why why would he go to jail. They went to jail because of stuff they were doing for him him.

You know, you know what bothers me more than anything. We are so and I'm with this movement that's happening right now. Black lives matter.

Then let's all get on this. Then, Hey, Ricky, we're praying for your family, man. We love you, brother, we care about you man, We are praying for you. Man. Coming up this last break of the day, we got a closing march from U Steak. Let's go you're listen all right, uncs how last break a day called Tommy? You know, yeah, good Tuesday. Hey, y'all, let me say this right here, my closing remarks. Man, I've just so pointed because I I'm feeling so many things, and I feel obligated to say, but I want to talk about this upcoming election that we have in four months. We are four months away. I wish and I want black people to understand how important you are. This thing that these young people out here pushing Black lives matter. It's one of the greatest protests I've seen in my lifetime, I said, one of them. But I'm old enough to have lived through the Civil rights movement, so I was watching Martin Luther King as a child and admiring him growing up even after his passing patterned a lot of what I did after him. But these young lions is out there roaring in the streets for Black lives matter. Of this one of the most important movements I've seen in a long time. And I congratulate you all on every level of your protests Black lives matters, and the way I want you to look at this and the way I want to equate this and try to get us to motivate it around this call black lives matter, and to really make them count and matter, you have to realize that your vote is an important part of your life. So if black lives matter, you have to take into consideration that your vote is an important part of your life. And for too many and for too many years is and too long, we have overlooked the importance of our vote in changing our lives. To make our lives matter, because black lives matters, asking people to change policy. Best way to change policy is what you'll vote. We have to vote in November. We have to send a clear and concise message to everyone that we are going to show you how powerful and big we are. We've already made a major contribution to this country and we continue to. We built this nation. If it was not for slavery, this nation would not be what it is. I'm just going to tell you the truth. Black people, on the backs of black people, built this nation. We are a major contributor to the fiber of this country. Don't you think for a moment that we're not. Because I'm gonna tell you something. A lot of money us being made today was made because of the free labor that was produced by Africans that allowed people to take their money and invested into other things. Tobacco, catch up, mayonnaids, automobile parts, our clothing. It goes on and on and on and on and on. The businesses that they were able to open and extend and extend to their families now because of the free labor that they had from the backs of Africans. That's us. That's us. We made this country. And so now to help them understand black lives matter, we have got to show them how powerful we are. Listen to me. Trump won in Wisconsin, Trump won in Detroit, Michigan. He won in Pennsylvania, PA. He won Georgia. Do you know that in those states alone, over a million black people did not vote. Over one million black people. I'm talking about well over one million black people set out in those five places four I named four, over a million that would have did it. To dude only one by eleven thousand, sixty six thousand, one hundred and thirteen thousand. He only won by those margins. Right there. We had a million people just in five cities set at home. We could have changed the course of this thing. We wouldn't even be talking about this dude right now. We wouldn't even be discussing him. We wouldn't even be shamed of him. We have a president that's mad at NASCAR because they banned the Confederate flag. We got a president who tweets out a man riding on a golf cart saying white power. And you're gonna sit home again and let him get in again. No you're not, No, you're not. You're gonna take your Black lives matter and you're gonna put it in the polls and we're gonna show him that our vote matters because our vote is a reason we have a life in the beginning, and nothing matters more to your life than your vote. We're gonna to the polls, man, We're gonna take this anger we got for this dude up in here that's got these white supremacy groups and all these malicious coming forward thinking they got a dude in the White House, because they do, they gotta dude in the White House. And we're gonna let him stay that. No, not this November. You want, not this November because Black lives matter. It's gonna show you the power of the black vote. Listen to me, black people. Why do you think every politician coverts the black vote because they know if they could just sway you, they could win the election. That's what voter suppression is all about. That's why they had these long lines in the primary to get you discouraged about voting, so you don't go down there and do it in November. No. No, we're going to get in line. I'm passing out water, I'm passing out chairs. I'm gonna have it all over the country. I'm passing our water in chairs. We're gonna sit in line until we vote you out. You will not be president again. I'm tired of traveling around the country trying to explain this. Dude. I've never been more ashamed of a president in my life. I wasn't ashamed a Bush, Reagan, none of them. This one right here, Shame on America, and we're gonna vote him out. Black lives matter because your vote matters more for all.
