Wednesday edition of Clay and Buck kicks off right now. Oh, boy, what a show. What a day. Michigan's Zohran Mamdani wins the Democrat Senate primary. This Abdul El-Sayed fellow, Abdul El-Sayed, is victorious against his challenger, Haley Stevens. And we will have that discussion. We'll talk about what this means. There's some other primary results that are certainly worth us spending some time on. And Mr. Clay Travis is continuing to make the rounds on media elsewhere as his $10 million WNBA franchise expansion challenge. is catching fire and some people very upset, very upset at the observation of reality that men are better than women at roughly equivalent levels, meaning college to professional or maybe even high school to professional, in a lot of different sports. This is controversial, even though that is the basis of why we have men's and women sports separated, right? We don't have a men's and women's SAT, but we do have a men's and women's basketball team and league, et cetera. There are reasons for this. There are reasons for this. We shall discuss that. Yes, sir, there you. Clay, if you're not on YouTube, you're missing out because he's wearing a blazer today.

which means he's probably doing some mover and shaker stuff. Were you just hanging out with the CEO of Goldman? What's going on here? Apologies for being like 30 seconds late. I was on with Pierce Morgan. Things got heated. Oh, Clay Travis here. As things often do with the debate over. men and women sports. They actually had a guy on the show who was refusing. Pierce really does do a good job of questioning. And he got a left winger on there. And he said, hey, would you acknowledge that steroids are, for instance, an issue? And the guy kept saying, well, I don't care at all about men and women's sports. I think this is a huge distraction. There's nothing to it. And Pierce got him to admit that he cared about steroids and cheating. in baseball and the Olympics. He said, wait a minute, why do you care about fairness in competition as it pertains to that, but you will not acknowledge any issues in men and women sports? But it was the very end of the show. So this went over. Rand Paul was on as a guest, and so I legitimately sprinted over here. Thank you for bringing us in right off the top. But if you're watching on YouTube, I've got to adjust my chair here in a minute too. But if you're watching on YouTube, you're getting to see me in a sports coat and a button down, which I rarely wear on this program. But a couple of other things, you just hit off right off the top. The biggest, I would say this is effectively in many ways, an earthquake because Abdul El-Sayed won this Michigan Democrat Senate primary. But Buck, he only won it by around one point. Haley Stevens only lost this primary by about 15,000 votes. And it's another huge polling error in the polling era of failure that continues. And now Mike Rogers is going to be going head to head against Abdul El-Sayed in Michigan. And this may well decide. the United States Senate control because I think Mike Rogers is going to beat him. I really do. Well, I would also like you to know everyone that the timing is fortuitous. I believe we have Mike Rogers joining us today on the program play. to check with us about this very important Senate race, which, of course, people are going to look at any swing state like Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Georgia, look at these places and the election results and extrapolate rightly or wrongly what this means for the big 2028 election. And I'm not trying to freak any of you out, but Clay and I have already been mentally preparing ourselves for this. The next presidential election cycle basically starts in January, and we are in August, meaning that this is going to be a big, this is going to be a thing, my friends. There's going to be a battle royal among the Democrats. We're going to see something happen. Who is the heir apparent for MAGA? It seemed to be the vice president, but some people think maybe there's something else afoot. We'll get into all this. So, Clay, just a brief over. I want to dial into the Abdul El-Sayed thing, too.

who has let everybody know that his Instagram algorithm is very focused on only fans models. Which we can play that clip for you in a little bit. I'm just going to tell you something. Don't tell your wife, everybody. Don't tell your wife. My Instagram is just all these only fan models in the algorithm. Don't do that. This is going to be a rare situation where you will hear me defend Abdul El-Sayed. That is probably a sign that he is looking at a lot of pretty girls on Instagram. I got to be honest with you. Every time somebody comes out, and I think I've said it before too. Like my Instagram algorithm, Buck, this is not going to shock you. It is all like sports. I know where it is. It's sports and pretty girls. If I go into the algorithm, I'm just being honest to everybody. Sports and pretty girls. Now, what I actually think is the most crazy thing about this Instagram algorithm in general. I don't know if we've talked about this on the program. The AI fake pretty girls. are now starting to wipe out the actual pretty girls on Instagram. Buck, it's to the point now where I see a pretty girl. I can't even tell if it's a real person or if it's just an AI bot creation of a pretty girl, which is now funny. The competition for pretty girls is not other pretty girls primarily on Instagram influencing. It's whether it's actually a real person or not. Again, not coming down hard on this one way or the other. I'm just saying, guys, don't announce for no reason that your Instagram algorithm is just beautiful women in lingerie because, you know, your wife or your girlfriend doesn't really need to hear that. But back to the election results here. We'll talk about Mr. Abdul El-Sayed and what this means. I'll give you a little preview. I think Clay and I are going to, as often happens, we never do this beforehand. I think it's just because while we agree on a lot, we have just somewhat. different dispositions and perspectives on the world around us. I think he thinks Abdul El-Sayed is toast against Mike Rogers, and I am worried. Well, here's what I would say. I don't want to do this right now, but go ahead, go ahead. We've got to hold it. I don't know that I would say toast. This is going to be a super close race, right? I mean, Michigan, we said yesterday, a Senate candidate from the Republican side has not won in Michigan since the 1990s, who's a Republican. So this is going to be a tough battleground race. But I am very optimistic. Very optimistic. You sound like my dad calling who's going to win the football game Sunday. It's clearly going to be the Giants, but I mean, maybe the Cowboys. Like, okay, you know, having a little two sides. I mean, it's going to come down to two points one way or the other. It's going to be 51, 49, one way or the other, I think.

So let's, we're going to dive into that, certainly some more and what this means. But I just, Clay, I want to set the table a bit with what we are seeing right now and in this primary and what's going on. Five states held primaries yesterday, okay? Kansas, Michigan, Missouri, Virginia, and Washington. By far, the one that's getting the most attention, as we've already discussed, is the very narrow defeat of Haley Stevens by Abdul El-Sayed. So it was a one percentage point difference, 15,000 votes over a million cash. That's a big deal. The Democrats, well, the other races are not really, I'm trying to skip through to just the ones that we care about. Rep. John James, who is Trump-backed, is now facing off against Guy Benson for the governor's race in Michigan. So that will be interesting as well. You've got a governor's race with some. with a Trump-backed candidate on the Republican side who's got a real shot. You've got Kansas, the governor's race there, nothing that's really getting that much attention. And, you know, Washington has a top two primary system, so we'd have to spend more time on that. But the broadest takeaway here, Clay, I think, is... You have this continued rise of far-left candidates within the Democrat Party. There is clearly a trend here. The trend is not definitive, but the trend is real, and I don't see it slowing down any time soon. Well, I think what it represents, and this is the analogy that I would draw, I think what it represents is in 2022, there was such frustration with Joe Biden and the way that the 2020 election went and COVID and everything else that I said, I expected there to be a red tsunami. And you got it a little bit in New York, and you got it a little bit in Florida. And the House did flip. But. We got a big time in Florida. It just didn't wash around the rest of the country. That's correct. And a reason why it didn't ultimately wash around the rest of the country was Democrats had been strategic and they had helped to elevate the further right candidate in all of the Republican primaries. They were actually out there buying ads to support right-wing candidates. And so as all of this played out, I think in a very significant way. Republicans overreached in 2022, and that cost us in a bunch of otherwise close environments. And we didn't get the same result in Florida and New York on the East Coast that we got in much of the rest of the country as a result. And frankly, a lot of those 22 races, you go back and look, incumbents basically won everywhere. And Democrats won a lot of really close races that came down to the very fine margin. And so... As a part of all of this, I think that what you may see is Democrats, angry, frustrated, furious over 2024 in Trump. And so they're actually going with the farthest left-wing candidate, which may not play very well at all, Buck, in the general elections. So one thing, a couple of other names that come up here. Donovan McKinney, Clay, Michigan's 13th Congressional District.

He defeated incumbent Shri Thanedar, who some of you might be like, who is that guy? If you see him, if you see a clip of him, you'll be like, oh, that guy. He has had some viral clips in the past. But this is a DSA endorsed guy. Donovan McKinney was a Democratic socialist endorsed candidate. So he's now... probably going to win that seat. I know it's just one congressional seat. Rashida Tlaib easily won. She smoked her competitor. So anyone who thinks, oh, the squad, the squad is not over. The squad is still thriving. And then in the state legislative races of Michigan, Kansas, and Missouri and Washington, you had a number of explicitly DSA. Now, I understand that's just if you don't live in those states, you're like, they don't really affect me. But it's a little bit of the farm team for congressional seats, right? That's the... That's the JV before the varsity of the national level. And you had a whole bunch of Chris Gilmer, Isaiah Harris, Jimmy Lapp, Sean Scott, Jalen Scott. You had a whole bunch of people who are DSA endorsed who won. Now, they have to continue to win. This is just a primary, but... You know, you're not seeing Democrats walk with the DSA thing and play. You got Bernie Sanders out there saying things like, oh, we can't judge, you know, right, I mean, left, sorry, not right wing, far left streamer Hasan Piker by saying America deserve 9-11. He belongs in the party. He belongs in the party more than James Carville. This is what you're hearing from people who are very prominent voices among Democrats. So they're making plenty of room for the ultra-progressive commie maniacs. Yeah. And look, I think in Wisconsin, I think Republicans have a really good chance of winning the governor's race there. In fact, Republicans are favored to win because it looks like they're going to nominate Francesca Hong. Now, to be fair, in the markets out there. Michigan is still favored to vote for Abdul El-Sayed. But I laid it out yesterday. I think he's got major issues with Jewish voters. You mentioned John James, who's going to be on the program again soon, the Republican nominee for governor in Michigan. He's a black guy. Why does that matter, you might say? Well, Abdul El-Sayed has got issues with black voters. They overwhelmingly voted for Haley Stevens. Now, maybe some of those guys... And gals are going to come back into the big tent now that El Salliat is there. But I think he's going to struggle in the Detroit area. And Buck, I'll just say I know the state of Michigan really, really well. Everyone who lives remotely in a rural place, there are still some old school Democrats in many of these rural locations, man, they are not going to show up and vote for Abdul El-Sayed. And these are, I'm not talking about the diehard, died in the wool, political people. I'm talking about just your regular, hardworking people out there in Michigan. I think they're going to show up and they're going to vote for Mike Rogers. Now,

It's going to be close because Michigan is a 50-50 state and we know they could run Big Bird and he would get 48% of the election vote right now in Michigan because Democrats show up and support Democrats no matter who is actually on the ballot. But I am very optimistic that Mike Rogers can win. We will ask him about all this at 2 p.m. Eastern when he is going to be on the program with us. I feel like I can't really argue with Clay effectively right now because when he's wearing a sport jacket, he's so much more authoritative. You know, usually he's wearing sandals and an old t-shirt. So this is why you've got to check out the YouTube channel, everybody. Yeah, no doubt. Okay, we, hi, I'm dressed really nice. I'm dressed actually, Buck, like I might be, I'd probably have a tie if I were in a courtroom, which I used to do back in the day when I practiced law full time.

In addition to the Michigan primary results that have come out, the ongoing discussion surrounding Abdul El-Sayed is going to be super intriguing. If only for this reason, Buck, this guy is crazy left wing. and the turnout didn't actually end up being that huge in Dearborn. I wonder how many people in Michigan are really going to respond very well to him saying that he didn't want to celebrate the Ayatollah of Iran being killed, which can we pull that audio again because I believe it was leaked? I know we talked about it back then because there were too many people that were upset that were going to be voting for him.

This is pretty radical. When a terrorist gets killed and the Democrat candidate says, hey, there's too many people that are going to be upset so we shouldn't talk about this. I just think that's going to be a hard put to sink in Michigan. I would like to come back here and explain Clay. I think I have insight into the incredible political strategy Democrats are going to use for Abdul El-Sayed. I think I know their playbook. Let's come back and talk about it here in just a minute. Okay. Rapid radios keep you connected with family, friends, and colleagues when the power is out of service or disrupted. They operate like walkie-talkies on a nationwide LT network.

I know it's just a primary, but it's also almost mid-August, or soon-to-be mid-August, and we'll take whatever political stories come our way from them where the things are going for the midterm or how things are looking at this stage. Also, Clay Travis, all over the place. Some people loving, some people not so much loving, his $10 million offer of the boys' sports team beating the women's WNBA. Was it the champions? The women's championship champions, right? Although if they wanted to put the all-star team out on the court, I would have the same outcome. They could pick the 12 best and put them on to a team to compete, and it would be the same outcome. And honestly, Buck, I think I could probably take it to eighth grade boys. Because I think the best team, it would have to be the best team of eighth grade boys. But I think a really talented eighth grade boys team would demolish the best WNBA players. Yeah. I went to a high school that was in the third division of the New York City Catholic School League. So we were like the C level, I believe, for basketball. The A level would actually produce people who like went on to the NBA. You know, there's like a number of NBA players that have played in that. This New York City Catholic school. Some of them have a couple thousand students are really big. I just bring it up because.

Now, there's a lot of problems with what he says. First of all, we didn't have 10 million people plus just flooding the country and afford. I mean, we've gone through completely unprecedented open borders thanks to the Biden administration, which even a lot of Biden people have basically admitted at this point, Clay. But here he's saying, that's abolish ice. That's what this guy has been saying. As the election gets closer in Michigan, don't be surprised when on CNN they're giving the opportunity to be like, You really mean reform, right? And he's like, yes, I'm calling for the reform of ICE because I believe in borders. They're just going to lie a lot. Yes. And they're actually going to be encouraged to lie. Look, I think Bakari Sellers is a moron. He's a CNN analyst. He's come after me on men and women's sports before. He tweeted yesterday. Can someone close to Francesca Hong just advise her to focus on grassroots activities in Wisconsin? No more national media interviews. Just put a lid on that. Why? because she's going to say what she actually believes and get questioned about it. And if they can hide her from the media and just have her doing grassroots events without aggressive questioning, then they can pretend she isn't a radical. And they will now pretend that Abdul El-Sayed is not in any way a radical, even though the evidence overwhelmingly shows. that he is insanely radical. In fact, we've got a clip here at the end that I wanted to play. Did you play Cut 10? Is that the one you just played? A lot of what he is saying. In fact, when we can get this ad, let's see, if it's not in yet, I just sent it to producer Greg. The National Republican Senate Committee is already running an ad that is up on the air right now. I texted early on in this campaign. I tweeted that the best thing that could happen for Michigan Republicans was Abdul El-Sayed ending up the nominee. And people got mad at me. In fact, the Michigan... I even said that Michigan Republicans should consider go to vote for Abdul El-Sayed. This came down to about 15,000 votes. He basically only won because of how well he did in the University of Michigan and Michigan State University campus votes. Can I give you one person who agrees with you very strongly, beautifully agrees. Brilliant, Clay Travis, but you know that better than anybody, Clay. Great news for the Republican Party, Trump writes, Abdul El-Sayed, a communist loser who hates Jews and Israel, is the projected winner in this race with the socialist. As usual, the polls were way off on this one. She was not expected to do nearly as well as she did. Now the Democrats' crazy policies will only get worse. So Trump sees this very much the way you see this. Yes.

And he's right. And look, this is going to be a race that... If Republicans can win Michigan, that flips a Democrat seat, there is no math by which the Senate would be in control or in danger. And so I think this is going to be really significant going forward. The money that is going to pour in is going to be incredibly impactful. And Buck, this will also matter in the governor's race. Again, I don't know very many people are talking about this. I think having John James, who is a great candidate, already been elected in Congress, him campaigning as a black guy alongside of Mike Rogers, when Abdul El-Sayed has been struggling immensely with black voters in Michigan, I think that's going to help. I do think that that's going to send a message of who the normal candidate is. You think John James is going to be able to take away from the expected black vote for the Democrat in that race? Because I do not. Remember, it doesn't take very much. The same thing that I would say about Jewish voters. We've got a lot of people that are listening to us that might not have been traditional voters. This guy refused to condemn. After the attack in Southeast Michigan in Oakland County, I know everybody just immediately forgot about it because the guy who was trying to attack got shot. He said hurt people do hurtful things. I'm paraphrasing him. After a crazy Muslim terrorist tried to attack a Jewish school, he said hurt people do hurtful things. Like that's the response to a terrorist trying to kill Jews in Southeast Michigan. People remember Jewish voters in particular. It's going to be an interesting decision for them. So, Clay, if you recall, we had some discussions here on the program after October 7th, and you were thinking or you were making the case that there would be a, now we can get into what's the definition of major, but a major shift in the Jewish vote once October 7th happened, and they saw that all of the people who were either cheering it or downplaying how horrible it was. publicly or on the left and Democrats without nobody on the right after October 7th, not a single person of any significance anywhere in politics and media was saying, oh, Israel got what it deserved or oh, it wasn't that bad or whatever, right? This is the result of the oppression of the Palestinians. It was all Democrats, all the left. The difference in the Jewish vote from 2020 to 2024 was about three percentage points. Yeah. And I told you they weren't going to switch, even though, because I grew up in New York, and I know, it's funny, I grew up in New York surrounded with a very, I mean, the largest Jewish population anywhere in the country. And right-wing Jews and I always saw eye to eye on everything. And the left-wing Jews, I was always like, what are you guys?

But they're very, you know, there are their issues. They will stay with those issues. And it's more, their sort of Marxist, leftist leaning is more important to them because there tend to be also less religious than their Jewishness in many cases. Like their politics overrides their identity as Jews. Let me just make a little bit of a distinction that I think does matter. And I think I'm going to now put myself into the mind of a Jewish Democrat voter. Kamal is married to a Jewish lawyer. I think she could nod to Jewish people and say, I am one of you. They all knew that she had married a Jewish lawyer. And so the chirping out there, if you're 85-year-old Jewish woman, you could think to yourself, okay, but there's crazy people in the party. But Kamala Harris married a Jewish man. She's with us. I do think it's going to be harder to say to the average Jewish voter. Abdul El-Sayed, who will play a couple of these cuts for you, who refused to condemn a synagogue attack and who has said that Israel is an apartheid country, I think it's harder to distinguish to be like, well, he's married to a Jewish person. I'm telling you, I know, I know these people well and grew up, meaning these, the left-wing Jews. I knew them well. I grew up around them. I lived in New York for almost 40 years. Think of it like the Bernie Sanders Jews. Bernie Sanders, right? There's the, you know, there's the conservative Jews. You know, there's your Dave, uh, Dave Rubin, Ben Shapiro, you know, all these right-wing Jews that are friends of ours and we know, you know, Mark Levin and all these. And we agree with them on all this stuff, right? We agree with them on the Constitution, the country, the Republic, all this stuff. Then you have these left-wing Jews who are like the Bernie Sanders Jews. I'm not talking about the centrist who are, I'm talking about the left-wing Jews. Bernie Sanders is going to say vote for Abdul El-Sayed. He already is saying. He's already said it. Yeah. That's what I'm saying. He's already giving them the all clear. So he's saying vote for Abdul El-Sayed. And I'm telling you the Jewish Democrats in Michigan are going to be fine with it. So I don't think that that's going to be, if you're looking at who's going to make the difference in Michigan, white working class voters. I mean, they're not voting for Abdul El-Sayed. I'm confident of that. Well, but that would be great news. But I'm just saying that's who's, I'm worried that they're going to get caught up, Clay. When I say they, again, guys, please don't say, I'm a truck driver in Michigan, and I listen to you guys every day, and I know this is all garbage. They're peddling. Yeah, you know, because you listen to us. Talking about what? You're right, by the way. It's going to be a super tight race. It's going to be a very, it's going to be with single digit percentage points between Abdul El-Sayed and Mike Rogers. Mike will be with us in a little bit.

Within that, you're slicing the onion very thin to know who the difference maker is. I think it's going to be people concerned about cost of living. That's what I think is really going to be the difference, not some deep ideological divide. My concern is turnout. Oakland, the reason why I point to Jewish voters, typically whoever wins Oakland County, that's the more wealthy county north of Wayne County in Detroit, usually ends up winning the state, and a lot of Jewish voters are there. But turnout would be my biggest concern. Let me tell you, my also concern is that you don't have enough testosterone in your life. I have been trying to keep up with my 15-year-old son. Kid is lifting all the time. He plays sports multiple hours a day. In fact, he's at training right now while I'm sitting here, the fat guy talking to you on the radio. I got to try. I told my wife, she said, are you really competing with your 15-year-old son? I said, yes, he can't be the strongest man in the house at 15 years old.

Though the headlines may change, the threats facing Israel remain. And while much of the world has moved on to the next story, Israeli families continue living with the reality of terrorism, uncertainty, and recovery. Communities remain on alert. Parents still think twice before sending their children to school. Families continue rebuilding their lives, knowing the next siren could come without warning. As Christians, we are all called to stand with God's children in times of need. And that's why the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews remains on the ground in the Holy Land each and every day, providing lifesaving aid and food for struggling families, emergency assistance, bomb shelters, and critical support for those impacted by war. Now, even after the cameras leave and the headlines fade, the fellowship remains committed to Israel's most vulnerable. I want you to join the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews in praying for the people of Israel, for protection, for strength, and for lasting peace. Together, we can remind God's people that they're not alone. So stand with Israel in prayer today by visiting. pray i fcj.org that's pray ifcj dot org welcome back in clay and buck we're going to come back and i promise we're going to make you laugh because we got a bunch of different audio clips of people being upset about me trying to put together the most inclusive uh trans women's basketball team of all time men who identify as women We are going to try to have our own WNBA franchise, and that has upset some people on the left, including a Minneapolis news anchor who delivered a stern dressing down of me on Minneapolis television. And you are going to really enjoy this. Seeing the video is even better. So we will play with that in a minute. We've got to put it up at Clay and Buck. The video is... Clay feels very chasing. I'm going to tell you, Clay feels chastened by the whole thing. And you know what? It's funny. I was watching that video, and I just thought to myself, one of the most amazing things about making an argument publicly is you think, we were talking about this off air. Who are the best people who could respond to your public argument? What arguments could they make? I think about this all the time, the counter argument. The counter punch, if you're a boxer, is often more devastating than the actual punch.

This woman is legitimately, I think, the person I would pick to attack me if I had to pick someone to attack me. So you guys will love this, I promise. It's going to be a lot of fun. And we will also, again, newly selected... elected Republican Senate candidate Mike Rogers scheduled to join us and this doesn't happen very often Buck one of my friends growing up is running for Congress and we'll find out if he gets in tomorrow he's going to join us I've known him legitimately my entire life so you can ask him if he's got any embarrassing stories he wants to share about me from when we were little kids oh no we're definitely going to do that that's coming up a lot of fun next two hours hang with us Life moves fast.
