larry: hello, folks. welcome to kudlow, i'm l arry kudlow.

so president trump new team of all-star allies. hammering home his closing arguments. vivek ramaswamy waiting in the wings, first up, brian llenas live in bucks county, pennsylvania with latest. reporter: good afternoon, we have breaking news in bucks county, there are folks lined up to file for mail in ballots today is the last day to apply for mail in ballot. it is last day to take that mail in ballot and turn it in, in one fell swoop, they are to close at 5:00 p.m., but this line was cut off at 2:30 this afternoon, people that vi we spoke to file disenfranchised, they thought deadline was 5:00,

some folks were turned away from this area, they were able to apply for mail in baballot and return it, republican national committee sent letter to department of state in pennsylvania saying, voters report to us that at boards of election offices in common we'll they are told computers are down, site will close early, they are not accepts any more votes in mail ballots will not be counted. this is what the secretary of state al schmidt said about the deadline across the commonwealth. >> last week, the department of state, asked counties to plan to ensure every registered voter who was in line by 5:00 p.m. today was guaranteed a mail in application. >> they are given opportunity to apply for mail in ballot, i lot here today, we have been told about friar days, they fought they could apply for

mail in bales on and turn it in up until 5:00 p.m. they are turned away early. this is important. because, republicans here in pennsylvania have been urging their voters to mail in their ballots vote early. here is jim wort worthington. he believes this a huge part to turn this county red. >> we got president trump to endorse it, i feel proud of that, i think i was party of getting that done, we have a strong vote my mail presence, if we get it to 2 to 1, lights out games over. president trump is the president. reporter: we spoke with a voter said his wife is due on november 5, he showed up here, he wanted to apply are in mail in ballot and turn it in. he turned up at 3:00, was

denied that opportunity. he now has to wait for mail in ballot to be sent to him, hope he gets it in time to turn it in before election day, he is a trump supporters, for people who distrust the system this is not helping. and we're seeing more of these reports, on the ground, as we're here. larry: brian. maybe i missed it. why they are closing down early before 5:00, and forcing absentee ballots? why is that. reporter: again, there is no realt -- technical early voting in pennsylvania, you can fill in a ballot in person, and turn it in. the deadline is 5:00 p.m. this is a county by county election in common

commonwealth, they don't have resources to help the folks they have to cut line early they don't have enough people to handle mail in applications and ballots here, they cut it at 2:30 here today, folks are here, thinking they can turn it in, and are denied. we're told it has been happening for many days here. there are other examples across commonwealth. larry: all right, that does not sound good. bryan llenas thank you. appreciate it. >> kamala harris broke it. trump has a new team to fix it. that is the subject of the riff. so, you are better off than you were four years ago. that is how donald trump began his speech at madison square garden sunday. think of it as we closing argument. >> i'd like to begin by asking a very simple

question, are you better off now than you were four years ago. >> no! >> this will be america's new golden age. it will happen quickly took very quickly. on issue after issue. kamala broke it, but i will fix it. we're going to fix it. larry: all right, kamala broke it i will fix it, now. hang on. i've got three numbers from today's "wall street journal" op-ed. by senators ted cruz and rick scott on biden-harris affordability crisis, on wages, cars and houses. consumer prices in u.s. cities are have risen 26% faster than private sector wages. 26 percent faster. not good.

second, family in january of 2021, paid on average 11579 bucks to own a new car. and cover the related cost of the car for the year. today, same car, same related cost, 153 p337 bucks, a 32% price hike, and owning and living in a home, now 36736 dollars, a 92% hike. and let me sneak in a fourth number. annual cost of owning a new car, and a new home is 70% higher today than it was four years ago. so, when mr. trump asked are you better off than you were 4 years ago, the answer is a resounding no.

these are straight forward kitchen table costs, nothing fancy, stuff of which middle class dreams are made of. stuff that comprises american dream for lower income folks trying to climb the ladder, young folks just starting out maybe, certainly middle income, hardh hard -- blue collar time, a hat tip to senators. now, this is another closing argument from mr. trump and it is a good one. he has a whole new cast of people to make sure that he in fact will implement his promises and fix the problems. reading off some names on new varsity team, jd vance, elon musk, vivek ramaswamy, robert fkennedy jr., tulsi

gabbard, byron donalds, hulk hogan and dana white. now, from madison square garden, take a listen to one of many great lines from vivek ramaswamy. >> if you want to seal the border, vote trump. if you want to resor law and order in this country, vote trump. if you want to grow the economy in this country, vote trump. if you want to revive national pride in this country, vote trump. donald trump is actually the president who will unite the country actually, we don't talk about that enough. larry: all right. vivek. does not get better, he will be here to talk about more. now, i had to add dana white to list, his ufc is attracting so many young voters to mr. trump. and i added hulk hogan to the list, now, i don't see

hulk running the treasury department just yet, but he earned his keep by saying sunday, can no stinken' nazis were at the garden. and his al smith speech and rally in south bronx and barber shop visits and extra salt on mcdonald's fries and his madison square garden speech. mr. trump is cool for one other reasons, important, people he is surrounding himself with are all very smart. they are not abe lincoln's time of rivals but the group, with many others, shows that donald trump has the confidence, and good judgment to get the very best people on his team. that is why he can say with

growing confidence, kamala broke it, trump will fix it. that is the riff. all right. bring in our panel kellyanne conway, host of here's the deal on "fox nation." liz peek, columnist, fox news contributor and rich lowry, a very interesting a new group, by and large. he has not rejected the old the crowd but he has a new diverse group, a diverse republican party, they are smart, i think that speaks volumes about -- trump is not afraid to have smart people with him, he wants best and brightest. people talk about his ego, he is willing to bring people in, i want to speak to that kellyanne. just strikes me that kamala broke it, i get it, but he will fix it the new group will make sure he does that

is what voters want. >> a great contrast, you know he does not try to substitute for his team, he supplements it, he made that clear announcing corey lou wi lewandowski coming back this summer. we'll take as many as we can. that is donald trump in full. also, too much has been made of celebrities around kamala harris, they are not necessarily celebrities, young men in particular think of elon musk, they think of future, of a guy who is in space, and rocket doesn't launch, he said let's try t it again, who knows what we will find in space, they see future, and they know he rescued twitter, "new york post" could not be on twitter, they were taken off by jack dorsey because they dared to tell truth about hunter's laptop. a lot see elon musk as a vanguard for freedom, and a

lot of former democrats who ran against him for president, untold story is what they all represent, beginning are trump, forget about random republican acts and why. you are not telling story, mainstream media about millions should be, would be democratic rank-and-file voters going toward trump. you can have 500 republicans that endorsed kamala i'll take millions of union households, african-american, hispanic americans, young people jewish-american voters, they are migrating to donald trump. they do it because his closing message is optimistic this hai heal and unify the nation. and -- they get addle with

trump derangement s syndrome. larry: rich lowry, you had pay couple of fries and a milkshake a couple of years ago cost 20 bucks that was like the leading indicator. little did you know trump would serve it up to you. i wanted hulk h hole hulk hogan on the list because he is cool like me, he said new stinken' nazis. muslims, by the by, american muslims are endorsing him in what dearborn, and ham track, michigan that is amazing. and i just want to clear that up. that is look, hulk hogan part of the trump you know team not budget for example or.

but there he is. symbolically. >> so, the media is negative about trump's campaign, you wonder, why is race tilting his way, they are missing or not telling us he is in strongest position he has been. he has never been more popular than now. and never had going to kellyanne's point abroader and more diverse coalition than now, critical important of rkf or elon they can talk to that male sitting on his couch playing video games the way that others can't. trump's madison square garden speech was upbeat and on message, it got obscured in the media. he talked about chopsticks. >> it you see rocket come -- >> 30 different videos. >> sheer joy.

larry: liz, you are only numbers person on this panel who understands, i try to make it simple. but, let's not forget kitchen table issues, are trump's calling card. and they didn't occur during his presidency, they have occurred wages are rising, more slowly than prices, housing costs are enormous, car costs too, basic stuff, i don't want to let it go by, a good op op-ed piece by two smart senators. >> been wonderful to watch liberal media brow bi beating americans thinking they are doing well. instead of fixing if or talking about what might fix it, everyone saysu you are

wrong. what is hands, people are worries about jobs. we're seeing unemployment go up slowly, but it is getting worse. i think people are concerned about this. but magic of this, donald trump did it before, he can do it again. this is -- kamala harris will talk tonight about turning the page, and what she will do differently from donald trump, i read you quote she said what difference between he and i, that is disqualifying in my view, but nonetheless, what are the things she will do, she has yet to present a case to american public. >> what is her -- so, do we have trump's closing arguments. some order. are you better off than 4 years ago, kamala broke it i'm fixing it peace through strength, some others. she is tonight, going to

speak at the mall in washington. about su january 6, with2021 and that hit lerrizing trump, that is it her closing arguments they are such bad losers. >> she will the lows badly, and lose independents for that reason they don't like negative tie of politics to begin with. they have a distrust of institutions and politicians of being so neg negative, she has failed do that, mike donnell, ad vice or to joe biden came out in march and said joe biden would prosecute case about january 6. and people -- democrat descended on him said what a losing message, so we'll do it now with kamala harris, that makes no sense, if you care about january 6, pl

many do, you are not undecided you are in polls already, i don't know who she is appealing to. >> who is she appealing to. >> if she loses they didn't get separation from joe biden. my guess, she had to shift to everything that she said. in 19 and 20 and felt too much to shift on everything else. larry: look. she had opportunities on shows, to distinguish herself and she wouldn't do it. >> they helped hurt her, a hurt her thank you for destroying her campaign. >> she is afraid of who she really is. she say progressive left wing democrat. it was just 5 year ago she went on the campaign trail, talking about issues that are very far left. like medicare for all. you don't just wake up and

say, you know i was wrong about everything. that is not a very strong platform. larry: they have dl thrown january 6, we have lit litigated this. impeached this, lawfared this, taken his money and business away. hope to thrown him out of new york and look where he today, they have thrown 5 books at him, she is standing taller than she, i know, polls are not votes. but when you look at real clear politics average, both nationally and by swing states, she is 5, 6, 7 points worse off than this very day, than was joe biden and hillary clinton, 4 years ago and 8. >> hillary clinton was 6.8, joe biden 7.4, trump is -- it is his best polling.

>> incredible. >> i think that everyone is touching on this, put it on the table. trump is right he said they are really going after you, i'm just standing in the way now they are castigating and denigrating we americans that did not work with hillary, kamala harris has a more sut subtle way. but negative has everyone in up lifted a nation. and i think she made a mistake by going too far away from biden, she ran him over and then ran from their shared record, she said have said here are great things we did today, here is what i will do differently she is seen as ungracious. she does not know how to take free modes. >> michael said never hate

your enemies it affects your judgment, this is the true. >> my favorite movie, hulk hogan said, no stinken' nazis. he may be deputy secretary, rich lowry, dis liz peek and kellyanne conway, he is count, he knows his stuff, here is the deal with kellyanne streaming now on "fox nation," on kudlow, trump wants to continue jfk, doctrine of peace through strength, we talk about it with art laffer next up. w to put in your local community. see what i did there? hey, jackie!

>> we had no wars we had peace through strength, it was a great thing, ill stand chaos in middle east and prevent world war iii from happening. larry: there you have it. joining us now to talk about peace through strength, art laffer.

jfx f, caf-- jfk said it, lbj could not say it ronaldi reagan said it and donald trump is saying, there are components through peace through strength. how to you read that phrase? >> i read it if two fashions very strong military and defense. a so strong military and so strong defense department that no one wants to take us on as jack kennedy said, defense spending always wasting when you find yourself in a situation. you are required to use your military hardware and prowess that is a clear sign does not spend enough, strong defense is important, and other side is a really strong economy, envy of the world, you want everyone to want to do business with us, want to be involved with us to make them rich.

ronald reagan said this just in 1979, at beverly hills hotel, he said -- i'll paraphrase, wants to make your friends stinking rich with supply side economic and scare the bejeebers of our enemies with "star wars," never has ragen said reagan made it never turn down an opportunity to share discussions and ideas with enemies, much better to settle a dispute verbally than too go into act, that is why biden and harris have done such a awful job, there are wars everywhere because of their incompetence. larry: we need supply side economics. strong dollars. yes. larry: that gives you, that gives you domestic economic resources, and then you can use those to build up your defense, now they will --

that doesn't mean defense d.e.i. in defense, a lot of woke culture that has to be written out, good defense, essential defense, expert defense that will keep -- mr. trump here, try this. mr. trump talking about "star wars." talking about missile air m missile defense system. last guy i heard that running for president is ronald reagan, and star wars iron dome is saving israel and its people in middle east today. that is how important it is. >> yes, it is -- you so right. and let me say, it is strong economy is not just for americans to have prosperity, that is a very important part. it is also for foreigners to

want to share in the prosperity and emulate us, one thing this reagan did he taught other countries, how to, chief prosperity. -- achieve prosperity, they followed suit and beautifully. they wanted to do business with us. i want to see all these country, any of them, want to do business, or align themselves with, including our afte enemies, we have a strong economy and make sure they don't take advantage of going. "star wars" is a beautiful parts of that. larry: i have to say, one thing. look, and many ways people forget this about reagan. you can have a strong economy, but you can't tolerate unfair trading practices. you can't tolerate china, india, europe, that have tariffs, art that are 5, times about what the united states tariff is. i say, people criticize

mr. trump left and right, i don't think they should, i don't think there is free trade left. i think that he will use tariffs to negotiate, reciprocity is new free trade, remember, reagan used something in those days called voluntary restraint agreements, in those days japan was unfair trading practices, particularly with electronics but also to automobiles. i mean reagan, he did that stuff, people forget reagan was not a pure free trader, i give you last word on reciprocity you. >> are right, trump wants what reagan wanted was them to lower their barriers rather than us to raise ours, he wants them to join us with not to be against us. larry: i like it all right good stuff, art laffer peace through strength. >> i love it larry, i just love it. larry: great vivek ramaswamy coming up, he is in favor of

>> we believe in self governances people we elect to run the government should be ones that run the government, not unelected bureaucrats in deep state that are running the s show today, you want another massy i deporting a let's get bureaucrats out of dc bureaucracy. larry: deport, deport the bureaucracy, i love it, joining us now vivek ramaswamy. i want to say your speech was wonderful we have quoted you several times, it is a pleasure to have you back

on. she should have a mass deportation of permanent tenured bureaucrats in washington, elon musk wants to join you in this. howard lutnick wants to join you, they call doge, department of government efficiency, now is time, i think you have the group around mr. trump to get this done. >> absolutely, for first time in american history we have supreme court precedent at our back. in this case american citizens, but i say deport them in to private sector from bureaucracy. that is where we need them. you hear msnbcs of world they talk about protect our democracy. when do they mine, they mean protect our bureaucracy, that bureaucracy is really the one that is actual threat to dim crease. democracy people we elect to run government they don't make the rules, they are unelected bureaucrats that write unconstitutional

regulations, i am optimistic for second trump term, not just donald trump is ready and tim team of people, but more importantly, of all, the supreme court has given us the legal backdrop to do it, saying if it was an important regulation, a major question it should have gone through congress rather than agencies, overturning che chevron deference, a once in century opportunity it is up to us to step up seize it the mandate that people give up on november 5. larry: it would bring joy to majority of voters. so, you have options, you could disband the whole department, education department, could be disbanded. i'm not sure anyone would care, other departments could be cut. a friend of mine said the other day, if you take a look at what elon musk did, when he took over twitter,

he slashed 90% of the staff he saw it was not necessary. i assume you are manage tmanagement style would be similar, what kinds of things do you want to day, day one or to first 100 days? go after agencies or people or after the bureaucracy. change the mission? put in meat on the bones. >> yeah. i think there is one way that is wrong way to say we want to take left wing bureaucracy and replace it with right wing, this is a failing strategy, wee keep our eye on northstar, shutting down that bureaucracy, look at supreme court landscape what is list of regulations that failed supreme court test, on the books right now, that are unconstitutional according to current supreme court. i believe that could be a majority of current federal regulations, i say it

literally, now if you thinned out are recession recession -- regulatory state. by 50%. massive redu re reductions, these are straight up laid out by supreme court in and legal precedence now up toes you have to electoral mandate to carry it out. why next seven days are critical, 1 we send donald trump back to white house with mandate to drain the swamp armed with supreme court residence, he did not have in 2016, that will allow us to create a government that is account accountable to people rather than other way around, we had since last century, wilson, and fdr and lbj, and nixon. that expanded this. we get to put a century long

project finally to rift, to say we'll revive a self governing constitutional republic that or founders wanted to see, that is greatest single economy stimulus to give united states, take that regulatory wet blanket off of the economy, drill, brack, burn coal. it is waiting to happen, we have to send donald trump to the white house. larry: i was thinking quickly. the civil rights act, 1964, title 6 and title 7, forbade affirmative action action on basis of gender or sex or color. you have the bureaucracy called d.e.i. have sprung up. and other bureaucracies related to d.e.i. they should go. and people should go, this -- stuff is illegal, i'm surprised it has not been struck down, the courts have struck down a part of it. you talk about, with respect

to the bureaucracies and let's see say chevron deference there are no legislative mandates for regulations, okay out you are gone, no legislation then no bureaucracy they are thoughts that i have, why not they are right there use civil rightsessable and use chevron deference. you are out of here. >> absolutely, chevron difference overturning of that in supreme court was a seismic event. the actions from 1960s created the agencies like that did more damage to private sector than anyone that voted for civil rights act imagined. we have 60 years, almost sensely wor century worth of damage to

undo. also a pragmatic matter, 20% of people do 80% of work, at government agency it is more skewed. a lot of agencies that need to need it to continue to exist will function better when they are thinned out. and many don't need to exist. mistake of a lot of conservatives in last 60 years to go increment alto incrementally on bring a chisel, if you want to get it done right, you can't just mess around the edges, you have to go to heart of it shut it down make founding fathers proud. that is how you grow an economy, a lot of independents, centrists and some d democrats agree. larry: not even a personnel problem. so many cases a structural

problem. some cases you save them and put better people in to run them or d down size them. anyway vivek ramaswamy, thank you for your wisdom and leadership, and a wonderful speech at madison square garden sunday. >> thank you. larry: coming up. kamala harris resorts to hitler, hysteria. she is back to j6, to dc. back tback to biden-harris, none of that stuff is working we'll talk about it with newt gingrich when kudlow returns.

in dc . >> well, they are proving their inner circle comes from a different planet. first, if you try to be agent of change, why would you give a speech in washington, d.c.? and why would you give it standing in front of white house, talk about reminding people she has been vice president for 4 years, this has been her administration, it a disaster. she can't began date of change. -- she can't possibleically began date of change, i am looking forward to speech i want to see how dumb it is. i could not help myself the other day i wrote harris 's hitler hiss hysteria, that implies over half of the country are nazis, i know hillary had contempt for everyone who was not her

social friend. but this is ridiculous, you know calista and i were at rally sunday night, i think it is lara cid, said there were so many israel flags you could not imagine it was a nazi rally. whole thing we're caught up in now, nothing harris is doing is solving her core problems, the economy, the illegal immigration, crime, and total incompetence. in a dangerous world, this is not a person you want to have as commander in chief. larry: i would add to these key points realignment. we're watching this, you know, she can call call film fascist and ever name in the book, the reality is he will get bigger margins

with young people and african-american, hispanic-americans, asian-americans, young people, men. he is running 4 or 5 points behind right today, a week before the election. lookingalry clear politics. swing states and national poll, running 4, 5, 6 behind, hillary clinton was, and joe biden was in 2020 and 16 that is how far behind she is. >> well, it am get worse over the last week. you can answer a poll sitting at home doing nothing. to vote, you have to decide you will get up, go do something. miami-dade just had a headline, republicans are now out voting democrats, in early voting in miami-dade. the -- i think a 950 thousand vote shift in early voting in pennsylvania. carson, rather, las vegas,

has collapsed. in terms of democratic turn out, i see in north carolina. republicans are way ahead. georgia we're ahead by at least 5. i am seeing it, the trump people, really obvious at the rally in madison square garden. trump team, is excited. trump voters are excited. and that is why junior senator from pennsylvania an wandering around rural pennsylvania said there is so much enthusiasm for trump. trump voters will get there, they will vote. i think it is almost impossible to get any kind of big vote for kamala because she is so obviously incompetent. other than hard-line left wing liberals and harvard professor, who will be excited to vote for kamala

harris. larry: trump is cool with hulk hogan and elon musk, and newt gingrich, trump is cool. ththank you, newt, i'll be right back with my last word.
