Speaker 5: Thank you. There are a lot of people that work

20
00:00:42,440 --> 00:00:44,880
Speaker 5: very hard to make it happen, and there are a

00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:47,839

Speaker 5: make it complimentary to you, like US medical plan dot com.

23
00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:54,960
Speaker 5: My friend John Roulman at US medical Plan dot com

24
00:00:55,040 --> 00:00:57,840
Speaker 5: is doing something with health insurance that there aren't many

25
00:00:57,840 --> 00:00:59,840
Speaker 5: people in the country doing, and that is plugging you

26
00:00:59,880 --> 00:01:02,800
Speaker 5: in into about one hundred or so different private health

27
00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:06,440
Speaker 5: insurance companies across the country to give you the very

28
00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:11,000
Speaker 5: very best rates. Now, listen, I understand that right now,

29
00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:13,560
Speaker 5: particularly this time of year, is when people are doing

30
00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:17,200
Speaker 5: the open enrollment thing and they are very very confused.

31
00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:21,440
Speaker 5: If you are a supplemental health insurance buyer with Medicare,

32
00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:23,399
Speaker 5: there are a lot of choices out there. Are you

33
00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:26,360
Speaker 5: getting the best rates? Hard to know? John knows, though,

34
00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:27,959
Speaker 5: You've just got to give him a couple of minutes

35
00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:30,360
Speaker 5: on the phone. It will take a couple of minutes,

36
00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:31,920
Speaker 5: but you will save money. And you know how I

37
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:35,560
Speaker 5: know because my own parents have saved hundreds of dollars

38
00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:38,560
Speaker 5: a month with John Rouman at US Medical.

39
00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:39,840
Speaker 2: Plan dot com.

40
00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:43,280
Speaker 5: Now, if you are a small business owner and you'd

41
00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:45,440
Speaker 5: like to buy insurance for your employees, but you want

42
00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:47,800
Speaker 5: to save a buck or two, John knows exactly the

43
00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:50,600
Speaker 5: best rates on group insurance. You buy your own insurance

44
00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:54,960
Speaker 5: for your family in addition to employees, same deal. John's

45
00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:55,720
Speaker 5: got the best rates.

46
00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:56,040
Speaker 8: Do you know.

47
00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:59,639
Speaker 5: I have a friend who just got Cobra through John

48
00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:02,920
Speaker 5: and saved about six hundred dollars a month versus what

49
00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:05,920
Speaker 5: she was being offered through her former employer. John knows

50
00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:07,680
Speaker 5: how to save you money and keep you covered in

51
00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:09,560
Speaker 5: health insurance. But you've got to make the call eight

52
00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:12,240
Speaker 5: seven seven four one zero forty three twenty one. Eight

53
00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:15,240
Speaker 5: seven seven four one zero forty three twenty one or

54
00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:20,040
Speaker 5: US Medical Plan dot com do this Tuesday edition of

55
00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:22,760
Speaker 5: The Stagall Show. We are in Washington, d C. Today.

56
00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:27,320
Speaker 5: It is a thrill to have you along. I have

57
00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:30,520
Speaker 5: no idea, Bob, why I'm hearing timpany drums in my ear.

58
00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:33,079
Speaker 5: I mean, it's kind of dramatic. Those of you who

59
00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:35,520
Speaker 5: are watching or listening, you have no idea what I'm hearing,

60
00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:38,400
Speaker 5: but it's kind of crazy. Anybody else hear that? Ad Am,

61
00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:41,400
Speaker 5: I having a stroke because I'm in DC. Okay, it's

62
00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:48,040
Speaker 5: house music, Bob our Audio cowboys play the little house

63
00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:51,040
Speaker 5: music for extra drama here in your nation's capital today.

64
00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:53,200
Speaker 2: Some timpanies were beating in my ear there.

65
00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:54,920
Speaker 5: I felt like I was in the middle of survivor,

66
00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:57,040
Speaker 5: which I may be by the end of the evening.

67
00:02:57,040 --> 00:02:59,000
Speaker 5: Who knows for sure. We're heading to Capitol Hill today.

68
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:00,840
Speaker 5: As a matter of fact, good morning to you. If

69
00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:03,840
Speaker 5: you're listening on great radio stations like am five point

70
00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:06,200
Speaker 5: sixty all over the country. Doesn't matter where I am.

71
00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:07,959
Speaker 5: As Rush used to say, as long as you're here

72
00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:10,080
Speaker 5: and I'm here, it doesn't matter where here he is.

73
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:12,400
Speaker 5: But we're in Washington, d C. Today, those of you

74
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:15,079
Speaker 5: watching on the Salem News Channel, We're in our DC

75
00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:18,240
Speaker 5: studios because right after today's show, we've been invited to

76
00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:21,680
Speaker 5: Capitol Hill to talk with Congressional Republicans in advance of

77
00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:26,600
Speaker 5: tonight's big State of the Union address. Somebody asked me

78
00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:28,519
Speaker 5: before the show started, Hey, did you hear the women,

79
00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:33,600
Speaker 5: the gold medal winning women of the United States are

80
00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:35,960
Speaker 5: not hockey team. They are not going to attend. They've

81
00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:41,520
Speaker 5: been invited. They said, they have a schedule conflict. Whatever

82
00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:44,400
Speaker 5: does it bother you? Ed doesn't bother me. That stuff

83
00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:47,680
Speaker 5: just doesn't exercise me. I mean, I guess you know,

84
00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:49,480
Speaker 5: some people would say, you know, when the President of

85
00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:51,680
Speaker 5: the United States invite you to something like that, you

86
00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:54,160
Speaker 5: go out of respect to the office or whatever. But

87
00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:56,040
Speaker 5: if it were to be completely honest with you, I've

88
00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:59,040
Speaker 5: said this before, that pretend president that we had for

89
00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:01,080
Speaker 5: four years, I would have a very difficult time we

90
00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:04,200
Speaker 5: had this conversation. I would just have a very difficult

91
00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:07,080
Speaker 5: time legitimizing the men.

92
00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:08,240
Speaker 2: I don't.

93
00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:11,640
Speaker 5: I find that Barack Obama and that man were two

94
00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:15,200
Speaker 5: of the most destructive people in American history, destructive and divisive,

95
00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:18,719
Speaker 5: and it would be difficult for me to attend anything

96
00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:20,360
Speaker 5: and smile as though I.

97
00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:22,200
Speaker 2: Endorse what they did.

98
00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:25,360
Speaker 5: So I guess from the rights or from the left's perspective,

99
00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:29,120
Speaker 5: I understand it. I don't agree with them, obviously, but

100
00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:32,480
Speaker 5: I understand the position. If that's their position, which they

101
00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:35,240
Speaker 5: didn't take. They just said, we have a schedule conflict.

102
00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:38,560
Speaker 5: So I read that to mean organizationally, they've decided they

103
00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:41,080
Speaker 5: don't care for the president because you don't. You don't

104
00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:43,440
Speaker 5: have a schedule conflict. I mean, if the president invites

105
00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:44,719
Speaker 5: you to the State of the Union, you go, no

106
00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:46,680
Speaker 5: matter what you've got scheduled, right short of the death

107
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:47,520
Speaker 5: of a family member.

108
00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:50,440
Speaker 9: Sure, but I don't take this.

109
00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:52,800
Speaker 10: I'm glad you kind of see it this way, like,

110
00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:54,760
Speaker 10: I don't take this as like a shot or anything.

111
00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:57,400
Speaker 10: Maybe internally as a team they're split, and it's just like,

112
00:04:57,440 --> 00:04:58,880
Speaker 10: you know what, let's not make a scene.

113
00:04:59,000 --> 00:04:59,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, just like you.

114
00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:01,640
Speaker 9: Guys, I don't want to go. Fine, then then then

115
00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:03,440
Speaker 9: let's we'll just put this, We'll just.

116
00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:06,039
Speaker 10: Politely respond that we have a scheduling conflict, and that'll

117
00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:06,280
Speaker 10: be it.

118
00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:08,080
Speaker 5: That's the way to handle it. Because if you've got

119
00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:09,920
Speaker 5: members of the team that don't go, then what does

120
00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:12,280
Speaker 5: the story become, not that they just won gold, but

121
00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:13,520
Speaker 5: that they were members of the team.

122
00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:13,960
Speaker 2: That were missing.

123
00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:16,560
Speaker 5: And then you start surveying the members of the team

124
00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:18,159
Speaker 5: that were missing versus the members of the team that

125
00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:18,880
Speaker 5: showed up, and then.

126
00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:19,279
Speaker 2: What does that do?

127
00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:21,880
Speaker 5: That causes a schism on the team, which they don't want,

128
00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:26,200
Speaker 5: and so diplomatically internally inside the team. Now I suppose

129
00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:27,720
Speaker 5: some would say, well, if you're the coach or the

130
00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:29,919
Speaker 5: head of the organization, you forced them all to go,

131
00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:32,320
Speaker 5: how would you beat about that?

132
00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:32,560
Speaker 11: Ed?

133
00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:35,039
Speaker 9: Probably not not Team USA.

134
00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:37,919
Speaker 10: Yeah, Like it's not like it's not like Team USA

135
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:40,919
Speaker 10: unless they're going on tour and playing you know, the

136
00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:43,000
Speaker 10: different nations from around the world. Like I don't I

137
00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:45,839
Speaker 10: don't know that they're going to continue after this Olympic

138
00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:46,960
Speaker 10: run at the moment, I.

139
00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:49,760
Speaker 5: Don't even know how that works. Who isn't quote in charge?

140
00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:51,400
Speaker 5: They come from all over the country, right, I mean

141
00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:53,880
Speaker 5: they're not They don't like answer to one figurehead.

142
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:55,680
Speaker 2: Do they team USA? I don't know.

143
00:05:56,279 --> 00:06:00,440
Speaker 10: I mean USA Hockey, the governing body is based in Colorado.

144
00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:03,160
Speaker 9: But as far as the women on this team.

145
00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:07,680
Speaker 10: I'm sorry, ladies, I don't know of the professional facet

146
00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:08,679
Speaker 10: of hockey.

147
00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:11,200
Speaker 5: Well, my understanding is these Olympic teams are assembled from

148
00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:14,040
Speaker 5: all over the place, don't They come together to play

149
00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:17,080
Speaker 5: obviously in the Olympics, But short of that, they don't really.

150
00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:19,120
Speaker 2: Have much to do with one another. It's my understanding.

151
00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:21,679
Speaker 5: So I don't think you can probably make them all

152
00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:24,960
Speaker 5: attend either as an organization. But anyway, yeah, it is

153
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:27,160
Speaker 5: a distraction. It would be a distraction for everybody, so

154
00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:29,400
Speaker 5: so be it. The men are going, the men are

155
00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:32,960
Speaker 5: very excited to go, and look, the fact of the

156
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:36,120
Speaker 5: matter is it's good vibes. I was saying this yesterday

157
00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:38,200
Speaker 5: on social media while I was walking through the airport.

158
00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:41,159
Speaker 5: It just dawned on me because every single headline I

159
00:06:41,200 --> 00:06:43,320
Speaker 5: was reading coming across my phone while waiting for my

160
00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:48,039
Speaker 5: flight yesterday, which happily was uneventful. Those of you, I

161
00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:49,760
Speaker 5: know you were all waiting with baited breath to find

162
00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:50,880
Speaker 5: out how my travels went.

163
00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:54,880
Speaker 2: So let me update you. It was not.

164
00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:58,800
Speaker 5: There wasn't a problem. The TSA people were still there.

165
00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:03,840
Speaker 5: I was not groped pre check, even work still, everything

166
00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:04,320
Speaker 5: was fine.

167
00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:05,200
Speaker 2: Everything was fluid.

168
00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:09,880
Speaker 5: Whatever snow d C was supposed to get it melted quick.

169
00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:13,000
Speaker 5: By the time I landed yesterday afternoon, there was virtually none.

170
00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:17,000
Speaker 5: So you guys to the north of DC got hit harder.

171
00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:20,280
Speaker 5: Bobby our audio Cowboy said his stepdaughter up there in

172
00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:23,640
Speaker 5: Boston had over two feet of snow, had two feet

173
00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:25,760
Speaker 5: up there. But I guess that's no hill for a

174
00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:27,560
Speaker 5: step For those people not up.

175
00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:28,720
Speaker 9: In Boston, they should be fine.

176
00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:31,120
Speaker 10: The only thing is is their governor limits them with that,

177
00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:33,960
Speaker 10: you know, earth moving material and snow removal and stuff

178
00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:34,080
Speaker 10: like that.

179
00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:35,520
Speaker 9: So if they got to do that all by hand,

180
00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:36,160
Speaker 9: I feel for it.

181
00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:38,360
Speaker 5: But DC, I mean, there was virtually there's a little

182
00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:41,560
Speaker 5: turbulence coming. It's windy today, so few all the Congress

183
00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:44,760
Speaker 5: people with hair pieces and wigs. It's it's dangerous out

184
00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:47,760
Speaker 5: there today, really windy. But other than that should be

185
00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:50,440
Speaker 5: good for the state of the Union tonight. No travel problems.

186
00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:52,240
Speaker 5: In fact, I bumped into some members of the core

187
00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:55,560
Speaker 5: of Congress traveling here today. That's where we're going after

188
00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:58,040
Speaker 5: today's show Capitol Hill, and we're going to talk to

189
00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:02,200
Speaker 5: some Republicans. You know, today's the day where they're rolling

190
00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:04,960
Speaker 5: out all of the polls yesterday and today. How to

191
00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:08,840
Speaker 5: spirited and upset Americans are with this president? How to

192
00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:11,360
Speaker 5: spirit it and bummed out and pissed off and ticked

193
00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:14,600
Speaker 5: it off and gloom and doom and oh, things have

194
00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:17,840
Speaker 5: never been worse, and the country's never been more unhappy polls.

195
00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:19,960
Speaker 5: Have you seen them? That's been the headlines for the

196
00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:22,960
Speaker 5: last twenty four to forty eight hours, conditioning you to

197
00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:25,080
Speaker 5: think that tonight the President of the United States is

198
00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:27,400
Speaker 5: going to take to the podium and he's going to

199
00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:30,960
Speaker 5: try to talk up an American public that is standing

200
00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:37,520
Speaker 5: in breadlines, desperate, upset, desolate, up against it, no hope

201
00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:41,520
Speaker 5: for the future, no optimism whatsoever. Which is why you know,

202
00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:45,880
Speaker 5: I see that the Olympics, the Winter Games, had their

203
00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:49,360
Speaker 5: biggest audience since twenty fourteen, and I think it's exactly right.

204
00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:52,480
Speaker 5: This White House always understands exactly where the American public

205
00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:54,400
Speaker 5: is in terms of sentiment.

206
00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:56,000
Speaker 2: Why do you think that is?

207
00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:01,240
Speaker 5: I don't have this as factual data, but I can

208
00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:04,840
Speaker 5: surmise why do you think it is the Winter Olympics

209
00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:09,000
Speaker 5: scored their highest audience rating since twenty fourteen.

210
00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:14,040
Speaker 10: Had any thought, I mean, honestly, the USA Canada rematch

211
00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:16,920
Speaker 10: for hockey, both men's and women's, to be perfectly.

212
00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:18,280
Speaker 9: Honest, is probably a big part of it.

213
00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:20,720
Speaker 10: I know people are into figure skating, and I know

214
00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:24,720
Speaker 10: that's a top dog viewership thing. One of the US

215
00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:27,240
Speaker 10: chicks won gold in that in an event that hadn't

216
00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:29,280
Speaker 10: been won by American since like ninety two.

217
00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:33,400
Speaker 5: NBC Universal, announcing Monday, the game's averaged twenty three point

218
00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:37,400
Speaker 5: five million viewers for live afternoon and US primetime across NBC,

219
00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:42,000
Speaker 5: Peacock and digital platforms. That viewership is, according to Nielsen data,

220
00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:48,720
Speaker 5: all fifteen full competition days, all fifteen days, folks, not

221
00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:52,560
Speaker 5: just the hockey games, not just this figure skating, but

222
00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:57,240
Speaker 5: all fifteen days of competition topped twenty million viewers in

223
00:09:57,280 --> 00:10:04,760
Speaker 5: the United States. Nothing gets twenty million viewers anymore now.

224
00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:08,520
Speaker 5: More than two hundred and fifteen million Americans, according to Nielsen,

225
00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:12,400
Speaker 5: tuned into NBC Universal for what they call Legendary February,

226
00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:15,320
Speaker 5: a historic month where it broadcasts the Olympics, the Super Bowl,

227
00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:18,480
Speaker 5: and NBA All Star Game according to Nielsen data, two

228
00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:21,640
Speaker 5: hundred and fifteen million Americans. What does that mean to you,

229
00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:25,440
Speaker 5: I'll tell you what it means to me. It means

230
00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:28,079
Speaker 5: the United States is still a country of people who

231
00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:30,520
Speaker 5: want to go about their day, who still love their country,

232
00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:32,840
Speaker 5: who want something to cheer for and rally around and

233
00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:35,200
Speaker 5: root for. They do not like the country being run

234
00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:38,320
Speaker 5: down and talk down. They are not depressed, and they

235
00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:40,520
Speaker 5: are not ticked off, and they are not dispirited, and

236
00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:42,240
Speaker 5: they are not up against it, and they are not

237
00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:44,960
Speaker 5: gloom and doom, and they don't think the best days

238
00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:47,560
Speaker 5: of the country are behind us. The fact of the

239
00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:49,520
Speaker 5: matter is, and you'd be forgiven if you forgot this,

240
00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:52,440
Speaker 5: seventy seven million people voted for Donald Trump.

241
00:10:53,559 --> 00:10:55,160
Speaker 2: You know who you are. Now.

242
00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:58,600
Speaker 5: I'm not suggesting that everybody is elated with everything the

243
00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:00,880
Speaker 5: Trump administration has done and over the year that they've

244
00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:02,520
Speaker 5: been in office, But the fact of the matter is,

245
00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:04,760
Speaker 5: there were still seventy seven million of us that voted

246
00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:09,280
Speaker 5: for him. Another two hundred and fifty fifteen million Americans

247
00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:16,880
Speaker 5: tuned in to watch NBC and sporting events in February,

248
00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:21,120
Speaker 5: twenty three million watching the Olympics. Specifically that tells me

249
00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:24,360
Speaker 5: that there are millions and millions of Americans who want

250
00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:27,560
Speaker 5: something to feel great about. They want something to lay

251
00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:30,680
Speaker 5: down their political arms for a moment or two, take

252
00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:34,040
Speaker 5: a deep, collective breath, Not talk about the roiling in

253
00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:39,280
Speaker 5: the streets, the agitation, not talk about the visceral, vitriolic politic,

254
00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:44,520
Speaker 5: but rather root around the American flag. And that's what

255
00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:47,560
Speaker 5: I suspect tonight is going to be a celebration of

256
00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:52,120
Speaker 5: the United States strength. And I just thought to myself

257
00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:55,440
Speaker 5: walking through the airport yesterday, what is everybody so ticked

258
00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:59,040
Speaker 5: off about? And the answer is everybody isn't. But you're

259
00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:03,760
Speaker 5: being made like everybody is because the messengers that people

260
00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:06,520
Speaker 5: largely in control of a great deal of the mass

261
00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:09,400
Speaker 5: media consumption that still exists out there. And you're of

262
00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:13,400
Speaker 5: a certain age, you hear it. Younger people, Younger people

263
00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:15,160
Speaker 5: are watching alternative forms of media.

264
00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:19,280
Speaker 2: But it's you know, again, you'd be.

265
00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:22,520
Speaker 5: Forgiven if you thought everybody is just all ticked off

266
00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:25,400
Speaker 5: and you know, maybe not even going to tune into

267
00:12:25,400 --> 00:12:26,960
Speaker 5: the president because the country's lost.

268
00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:28,640
Speaker 2: Don't you believe it.

269
00:12:30,160 --> 00:12:33,440
Speaker 5: This is meant to make you feel like the country

270
00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:37,880
Speaker 5: has just completely backslid and nobody supports it anymore. Tonight

271
00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:40,480
Speaker 5: is going to be a celebration of patriotism. I suspect

272
00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:43,320
Speaker 5: the President is going to continue to lay out his agenda,

273
00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:47,000
Speaker 5: and we're going to be covering it all here on

274
00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:50,320

Speaker 5: snow and hope everybody. Hundreds of thousands without power as

286
00:13:26,559 --> 00:13:28,680
Speaker 5: of yesterday afternoon. I don't know if that's been restored,

287
00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:31,079

Speaker 5: if you'd like to get in here today, State of

290
00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:38,280
Speaker 5: the Union Day, and we will be covering it here

291
00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:41,679
Speaker 5: throughout the day and tomorrow on the Salem News Channel

292
00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:44,960
Speaker 5: and the great Salem radio stations like this one that

293
00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:47,480
Speaker 5: you're listening to right now all over the country. We're

294
00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:49,400
Speaker 5: headed to Capitol Hill today to talk with some members

295
00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:52,199
Speaker 5: of Congress, and you know, the Democrats are coming for them,

296
00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:54,480
Speaker 5: there's no doubt about that. That's the headline today. Democrats

297
00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:57,040
Speaker 5: are announcing their first slate of House candidates for Red

298
00:13:57,080 --> 00:13:59,880
Speaker 5: to Blue program. Congress is going to have to have

299
00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:04,400
Speaker 5: something new to talk about soon, and that's going to

300
00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:06,120
Speaker 5: be my message to them today. That's going to be

301
00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:09,440
Speaker 5: my question for them today. What exactly do you have

302
00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:12,720
Speaker 5: on your agenda to accomplish. I mean, I really appreciate

303
00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:15,400
Speaker 5: the big, beautiful bill, but you guys have been dying

304
00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:17,720
Speaker 5: now out on that for a while. And look, we're

305
00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:22,800
Speaker 5: all hopeful that we're going to see a continued booming economy.

306
00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:25,640
Speaker 5: We've seen the market really growing, but you know, housing

307
00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:28,000
Speaker 5: is still an issue. Student loan default is still a

308
00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:31,240
Speaker 5: big issue. I think the Stackall plan fixes that. I

309
00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:33,960
Speaker 5: might make a pitch for that again shamelessly, but the

310
00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:36,400
Speaker 5: fact of the matter is they're going to have to

311
00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:40,680
Speaker 5: get something accomplished. Hip Roy, for instance, who has got

312
00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:42,880
Speaker 5: the save aac through the House, he says the Senate.

313
00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:44,880
Speaker 5: They've got the votes to pass it, they should do it.

314
00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:45,560
Speaker 2: And I agree.

315
00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:50,800
Speaker 5: The American public is universally, uniformly behind identification to vote

316
00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:54,320
Speaker 5: and just participate in basic civic issues of the day.

317
00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:56,960
Speaker 5: In this country, everybody believes you should have identification. We

318
00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:58,680
Speaker 5: all have to have it for everything else we do.

319
00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:01,080
Speaker 5: Why shouldn't you have it for voting? Here's chip Roy

320
00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:02,200
Speaker 5: number sixty.

321
00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:04,640
Speaker 12: Well, the good news is, as you know, we passed

322
00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:06,160
Speaker 12: it out of the House and sitting in the Senate

323
00:15:06,400 --> 00:15:09,280
Speaker 12: and we have fifty senators who said they support the bill.

324
00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:12,200
Speaker 12: So now the question is, well, the majority leader put

325
00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:14,640
Speaker 12: it on the floor, he should, and will he force

326
00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:17,760
Speaker 12: them to do their job. Leave the nursing home, put

327
00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:20,480
Speaker 12: the jello away, go down to the floor of the

328
00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:23,560
Speaker 12: Senate and actually do their job and speak. That's all

329
00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:25,360
Speaker 12: we're asking them to do. By the way, we're not

330
00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:28,320
Speaker 12: asking for a change in the rules. We're simply asking

331
00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:31,600
Speaker 12: to force everybody into the floor. Well, but that's the

332
00:15:31,640 --> 00:15:34,320
Speaker 12: point we could have that debate. We're not even asking

333
00:15:34,360 --> 00:15:36,720
Speaker 12: for that right now. We're literally just saying, go to

334
00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:39,960
Speaker 12: the Senate floor and make your case. Argue, make them

335
00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:43,160
Speaker 12: sit down there again five percent issue, make them do

336
00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:46,000
Speaker 12: a real filibuster, make them take mister Smith back to

337
00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:48,720
Speaker 12: Washington again, and that I think will eliminate for the

338
00:15:48,760 --> 00:15:51,840
Speaker 12: American people how out of touch Democrats are. And by

339
00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:54,040
Speaker 12: the way, we're confident in this legislation.

340
00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:57,880
Speaker 5: So I want to ask you at eight five five, Stigaul,

341
00:15:57,920 --> 00:15:59,800
Speaker 5: I'm going to do something I don't typically do. You know,

342
00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:01,880
Speaker 5: I head to Capitol Hill today and I talk with

343
00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:04,440
Speaker 5: the members of Congress. The Republicans have invited us there.

344
00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:07,720
Speaker 5: I always look forward to the opportunity because I want

345
00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:11,200
Speaker 5: to take your concerns and your questions directly to the

346
00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:13,880
Speaker 5: body of representatives on Capitol Hill that have the power

347
00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:17,680
Speaker 5: to actually affect real legislative change and get something to

348
00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:21,160
Speaker 5: the President's desk to sign. You know, we're in an

349
00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:24,080
Speaker 5: era where it's just a matter of executive action versus

350
00:16:24,160 --> 00:16:28,480
Speaker 5: judicial rulings. Executive actions, judicial rulings, executive actions, judicial rulings,

351
00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:32,200
Speaker 5: washerants repeat the eight hundred pound guerrilla should be the legislature.

352
00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:36,320
Speaker 5: And I think I speak for most people when I

353
00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:41,880
Speaker 5: say we don't feel like there's nearly enough movement happening

354
00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:44,760
Speaker 5: legislatively again, big beautiful bill.

355
00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:47,360
Speaker 2: Great, but they can't be where we stop.

356
00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:52,240
Speaker 5: So my question is if Republicans were to try to

357
00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:55,080
Speaker 5: hang on this fall, and I think conventional wisdom suggests

358
00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:57,840
Speaker 5: they won't, but if they did, and I'm not saying

359
00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:01,120
Speaker 5: they can't because here's what's also true. Democrats are in

360
00:17:01,160 --> 00:17:05,800
Speaker 5: the toilet. Nobody thinks they're a solid alternative. So what

361
00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:08,439
Speaker 5: can the Republicans do? At eight five five Stigall, what

362
00:17:08,520 --> 00:17:10,399
Speaker 5: would you like to see the Republicans do that you

363
00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:14,560
Speaker 5: think would energize and boost turnout? Right now? What could

364
00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:19,479
Speaker 5: they do to excite and energize turnout for Republicans? What

365
00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:21,000
Speaker 5: would it take for you to get up off the

366
00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:23,760
Speaker 5: couch and get excited and enthusiastic about Republicans eight five

367
00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:25,800
Speaker 5: five Stagall. I would love to ask you that question,

368
00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:28,199
Speaker 5: and I'll pass it along to them today. Good to

369
00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:31,359
Speaker 5: be with you this morning from the Relief Factor Studios,

370
00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:35,840
Speaker 5: looking live in Manhattan this morning, am nine to seventy.

371
00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:41,480
Speaker 5: The answer. Our camera's there high above Midtown Manhattan. Our

372
00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:43,760
Speaker 5: telephone number eight five five Stagall. If you want to

373
00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:46,520
Speaker 5: get in here today, use it because I'm doing something rare.

374
00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:48,360
Speaker 5: I don't do this typically in the middle of the week.

375
00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:51,919
Speaker 5: But I'm opening the phones because I'm headed to Capitol

376
00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:55,400
Speaker 5: Hill today and I'm asking a very specific question of

377
00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:58,560
Speaker 5: you while on the way there, and that is this,

378
00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:03,840
Speaker 5: What could I relay to members of Congress that would

379
00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:09,960
Speaker 5: excite you about what they're doing. I remember feeling last year,

380
00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:13,719
Speaker 5: particularly when we're talking about Doge cuts and recisions and

381
00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:17,000
Speaker 5: codifying recisions and reducing the size and scope of government

382
00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:18,960
Speaker 5: in addition to the big beautiful bill. I remember feeling

383
00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:23,280
Speaker 5: real momentum and enthusiasm. I sense obviously that that was

384
00:18:23,280 --> 00:18:26,399
Speaker 5: about the sum total of it, and then not really

385
00:18:26,600 --> 00:18:28,679
Speaker 5: because of Mike Johnson's in action in fact that I

386
00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:30,520
Speaker 5: think the House has actually done their fair share. I

387
00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:34,639
Speaker 5: think now the Senate bears responsibility obviously and getting certain

388
00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:35,800
Speaker 5: things like the save ac past.

389
00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:37,359
Speaker 2: Would that excite you? Is that enough?

390
00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:40,199
Speaker 5: You know, Chip Roy said they've got the votes to

391
00:18:40,320 --> 00:18:43,720
Speaker 5: make it legal across the country that everyone must have

392
00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:49,040
Speaker 5: identification to vote. Would that do it? Would you feel satisfied? Okay,

393
00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:53,040
Speaker 5: my elected representatives are acting on my behalf. That enthuses me.

394
00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:54,960
Speaker 5: I'm going to go out and work hard for the

395
00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:58,359
Speaker 5: Republican Party. I'm going to make sure they stay in

396
00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:02,760
Speaker 5: control of Congress this fall. Because the thing is, Democrats

397
00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:07,800
Speaker 5: are energized, folks. We know that they are. They'll do anything.

398
00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:10,760
Speaker 5: They'll walk over broken glass and walk through fire to

399
00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:15,120
Speaker 5: go vote. And so far the turnout models, even in

400
00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:18,359
Speaker 5: Texas show they're there and they're ready. I mean, this

401
00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:21,160
Speaker 5: March third primary down there is an interesting thing to watch.

402
00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:23,199
Speaker 5: If you haven't paid much attention, you Texans know this.

403
00:19:23,560 --> 00:19:29,560
Speaker 5: Democrats are ready, are you? You know there was great

404
00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:32,600
Speaker 5: enthusiasm for Donald Trump. But when Donald Trump's not on

405
00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:36,280
Speaker 5: the ballot, these Republicans in Congress really struggle without him.

406
00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:40,040
Speaker 5: And so I've been really pondering this, What can they do,

407
00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:44,960
Speaker 5: in your opinion, to excite you enough to literally get

408
00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:47,840
Speaker 5: up and go, maybe volunteer and knock doors for your

409
00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:50,679
Speaker 5: member of Congress, because I suspect the good number of

410
00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:53,720
Speaker 5: you right now do not feel as motivated. I don't

411
00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:55,760
Speaker 5: want to speak for you. Maybe you do. Maybe you're

412
00:19:55,800 --> 00:19:57,320
Speaker 5: champing it a bit to get out there and make

413
00:19:57,359 --> 00:20:01,280
Speaker 5: sure Republicans hold on to the House and the Senate.

414
00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:04,320
Speaker 5: But if you're not and you feel like, ooh, what's

415
00:20:04,359 --> 00:20:08,040
Speaker 5: election day, Trump's another back. I mean, I've told you

416
00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:10,800
Speaker 5: before I know people who vote only because Trump's on

417
00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:13,280
Speaker 5: the ballot, and when he's not, they don't vote. They're

418
00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:16,160
Speaker 5: not Democrats, they just own they're pro Trump and that's it.

419
00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:20,199
Speaker 5: So what could Republicans do to make you feel like,

420
00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:23,040
Speaker 5: right on? This is a team I want to play for.

421
00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:26,399
Speaker 5: This is a team I want to keep in charge.

422
00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:29,240
Speaker 5: Because that's what Republicans have to do. They've got to

423
00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:31,800
Speaker 5: get you out this fall. Can they are?

424
00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:35,000
Speaker 2: They will? They eight five fives to gall And.

425
00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:38,720
Speaker 5: As President Trump speaks to the country tonight, well do

426
00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:41,800
Speaker 5: you want to hear him say? They say he's going

427
00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:43,480
Speaker 5: to talk about the economy. He's going to sell the

428
00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:46,720
Speaker 5: economy during the State of the Union address, using a

429
00:20:46,720 --> 00:20:48,480
Speaker 5: State of the Union address to sell the public on

430
00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:51,280
Speaker 5: the economy and unveil new measures meant to lower costs,

431
00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:53,719
Speaker 5: says The Wall Street Journal. As Republicans try to address

432
00:20:53,800 --> 00:20:57,600
Speaker 5: voters concerns ahead of the midterm elections this fall. The

433
00:20:57,640 --> 00:21:01,280
Speaker 5: official theme of the speech America at two fifty strong,

434
00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:07,399
Speaker 5: prosperous respected. Now, if you believe public sentiment polls, I

435
00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:10,880
Speaker 5: think a good number of people believe the country is strong.

436
00:21:12,920 --> 00:21:16,200
Speaker 5: I think you have to acknowledge that the country is respected.

437
00:21:16,240 --> 00:21:18,240
Speaker 5: You may not like why they're respected, but I think

438
00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:20,000
Speaker 5: the rest of the world understands. We got a guy

439
00:21:20,040 --> 00:21:23,560
Speaker 5: who doesn't play. He's deadly serious, and so they're setting

440
00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:26,800
Speaker 5: up and taking notice. So I say respected, I say strong.

441
00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:29,639
Speaker 5: Are we prosperous? I think a lot of you in

442
00:21:29,680 --> 00:21:31,520
Speaker 5: this audience. Again, I don't mean to speak for you,

443
00:21:31,560 --> 00:21:32,959
Speaker 5: but I think a lot of you in this audience

444
00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:35,320
Speaker 5: still feel, for whatever reason, that the economy has not

445
00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:42,159
Speaker 5: advanced as fast as maybe you'd like. I think there

446
00:21:42,200 --> 00:21:44,600
Speaker 5: are reasons for that. I'm going to certainly ask those questions.

447
00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:51,680
Speaker 5: But if the stats are correct, the housing market not

448
00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:57,400
Speaker 5: great right now for buyers, student loan defaults have ticked up.

449
00:21:58,760 --> 00:22:03,560
Speaker 5: Jobs numbers are good on balance, Unemployment remains relatively low,

450
00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:09,080
Speaker 5: wages have increased. But for whatever reason, the public sentiment

451
00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:14,280
Speaker 5: is and I think it's largely because of media. You're

452
00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:17,280
Speaker 5: given the interpretation of the impression. People will say it's groceries.

453
00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:20,000
Speaker 5: People say grocery. I go shopping and the groceries are

454
00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:22,920
Speaker 5: still expensive. I'm not sure those are ever going down.

455
00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:25,399
Speaker 5: And this is one of those things that I say often,

456
00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:27,359
Speaker 5: I don't know that grocery prices are coming down. I mean,

457
00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:30,040
Speaker 5: I'm not sure what anyone can do. We've talked about

458
00:22:30,040 --> 00:22:33,280
Speaker 5: fuel prices. Those have certainly come down. Gasoline prices have

459
00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:36,760
Speaker 5: come down, so people that ship goods to market maybe

460
00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:38,840
Speaker 5: they don't have to pass on fuel costs as much.

461
00:22:39,359 --> 00:22:43,760
Speaker 5: But you know how things work, people don't lower prices

462
00:22:43,840 --> 00:22:46,119
Speaker 5: very often. Once they've been able to raise them, they

463
00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:48,760
Speaker 5: don't typically come down. So if you're ticked off at

464
00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:50,840
Speaker 5: what you're paying for a pound of beef, I think

465
00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:55,560
Speaker 5: that'll change as supply of cattle changes. But other stuff, chips,

466
00:22:55,680 --> 00:22:59,239
Speaker 5: junk food, that kind of stuff, coffee, I don't know.

467
00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:00,520
Speaker 5: Maybe it doesn't come down.

468
00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:01,920
Speaker 2: And then what no?

469
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:03,680
Speaker 9: I agree, Chris, And this is what I try to

470
00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:04,160
Speaker 9: tell people.

471
00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:04,520
Speaker 5: I don't know.

472
00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:07,919
Speaker 10: I don't understand why anybody votes Democrat because this is

473
00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:08,320
Speaker 10: the thing.

474
00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:09,439
Speaker 2: They do.

475
00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:13,720
Speaker 10: Affect the price of gas, they do affect the price

476
00:23:13,720 --> 00:23:14,600
Speaker 10: of heating your home.

477
00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:17,120
Speaker 9: They do affect They enact new taxes.

478
00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:20,080
Speaker 10: On you to you know, save the quarry or whatever

479
00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:21,879
Speaker 10: new program they want to add at the school. And

480
00:23:21,920 --> 00:23:25,760
Speaker 10: I say, don't you realize once you approve and you

481
00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:29,280
Speaker 10: vote for these Democrats and they enact these costs on you,

482
00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:32,959
Speaker 10: you're never going back. Ever, so Joe Biden, you know,

483
00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:36,680
Speaker 10: caused the worst inflation in forty years. It's like, okay, well,

484
00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:38,720
Speaker 10: now these companies are getting that money they have to

485
00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:41,400
Speaker 10: operate to We're never ever going back.

486
00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:42,800
Speaker 9: It never happens.

487
00:23:42,840 --> 00:23:45,600
Speaker 5: And so I think Donald Trump's election many people maybe

488
00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:48,000
Speaker 5: they thought, well, I'm not going to have to pay

489
00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:50,119
Speaker 5: more than a buck or two for chips or something.

490
00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:52,280
Speaker 5: And I can't believe it costs me five dollars now

491
00:23:52,320 --> 00:23:54,040
Speaker 5: to buy a bag of chips when it used to

492
00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:56,879
Speaker 5: cost me to Trump got elected and it wasn't fixed.

493
00:23:57,840 --> 00:23:59,040
Speaker 2: I don't have to say any about that.

494
00:23:59,080 --> 00:23:59,400
Speaker 13: I don't.

495
00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:02,400
Speaker 5: I don't think that was realistic. Ever, I'm not sure

496
00:24:02,480 --> 00:24:05,480
Speaker 5: that particular expectation was realistic. He can impact, as you said,

497
00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:09,200
Speaker 5: fuel costs, and he has. He can impact home energy,

498
00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:11,439
Speaker 5: heating and cooling costs, and he has and he is.

499
00:24:13,080 --> 00:24:16,080
Speaker 5: There's a lot he can impact. But at any rate

500
00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:17,920
Speaker 5: eight five five s to Gaul if you'd like to

501
00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:21,640
Speaker 5: get in here today speaking of Mayor Zorn Mamdani mad

502
00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:23,600
Speaker 5: manny I like to call him of New York. This

503
00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:25,280
Speaker 5: is from the New York Times today. You ready for

504
00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:30,720
Speaker 5: this to this point? Mamdani of New York, and his

505
00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:33,320
Speaker 5: inaugural address offered a pledge to create a government where

506
00:24:33,359 --> 00:24:37,320
Speaker 5: excellence is no longer the exception. He must now do

507
00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:40,560
Speaker 5: so while closing a five point four billion dollar deficit

508
00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:42,919
Speaker 5: in a state where the governor rejects higher taxes on

509
00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:47,280
Speaker 5: the rich. This from The New York Times. Big budget

510
00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:49,959
Speaker 5: gaps are not uncommon in American cities, nor is New

511
00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:52,960
Speaker 5: York's high cost of living one reason that California, New York,

512
00:24:52,960 --> 00:24:55,760
Speaker 5: and Illinois topped the list of states with declining populations

513
00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:59,160
Speaker 5: over the past years. If blue state governors and mayors

514
00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:01,960
Speaker 5: want to get serious about delivering excellent public services, they

515
00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:04,919
Speaker 5: will need to do more than battle billionaire elites or

516
00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:08,280
Speaker 5: embrace abundant housing and energy. They will have to push

517
00:25:08,359 --> 00:25:11,639
Speaker 5: back against a core constituency within the Democrat party that

518
00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:14,240
Speaker 5: often makes government deliver.

519
00:25:14,040 --> 00:25:17,000
Speaker 2: Less and cost more. Are you ready for this?

520
00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:24,080
Speaker 5: Unions representing teachers, police officers, and transit workers. Democrats have

521
00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:27,439
Speaker 5: long accepted inefficiencies as the price of support from the

522
00:25:27,480 --> 00:25:31,480
Speaker 5: public sector unions, and this may seem the worst time

523
00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:35,760
Speaker 5: to demand better confronted with the President's cruelty and lawlessness,

524
00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:40,920
Speaker 5: says The New York Times. The unions have been inspiring,

525
00:25:41,800 --> 00:25:46,080
Speaker 5: defending wrongly fired workers, fighting federal overreach, and organizing against

526
00:25:46,160 --> 00:25:51,480
Speaker 5: ice brutality. But it's precisely because of increasing authoritarianism that

527
00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:54,479
Speaker 5: Democrat governors and mayors now need to show the public

528
00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:58,280
Speaker 5: that they can deliver. With the President weaponizing budget cuts

529
00:25:58,280 --> 00:26:01,520
Speaker 5: against blue states, there is little room for error. Democrats

530
00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:04,600
Speaker 5: need a new bargain with public sector unions, one that

531
00:26:04,720 --> 00:26:08,399
Speaker 5: respects their voices and livelihoods, but puts public services first.

532
00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:12,160
Speaker 5: Begin with the cost of government. Blue state and blue

533
00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:15,280
Speaker 5: city voters pay higher taxes more than half of a

534
00:26:15,359 --> 00:26:19,560
Speaker 5: city and local government expenditures are paid out to employees.

535
00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:22,000
Speaker 5: These blue states and cities often pay state and local

536
00:26:22,040 --> 00:26:25,919
Speaker 5: government workers more than similar jobs pay in red jurisdictions,

537
00:26:26,119 --> 00:26:30,720
Speaker 5: even after adjusting the cost of living. So the New

538
00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:33,439
Speaker 5: York Times is actually saying government is going to have

539
00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:34,680
Speaker 5: to run more efficiently.

540
00:26:36,840 --> 00:26:40,080
Speaker 2: I kid you not. That's the New York Times.

541
00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:44,480
Speaker 5: Telling Democrats you're going to have to expect more from

542
00:26:44,560 --> 00:26:47,080
Speaker 5: your union labor workers, and they are going to have

543
00:26:47,160 --> 00:26:49,359
Speaker 5: to expect a little less and give a little more

544
00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:53,000
Speaker 5: because in red states, people are operating leaner and meaner

545
00:26:53,040 --> 00:26:55,919
Speaker 5: and more efficient. I'm not making this up. This is

546
00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:58,880
Speaker 5: today in advance of the State of the Union address,

547
00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:03,600
Speaker 5: where is carping and yelling and whining and bellyaching about affordability.

548
00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:04,679
Speaker 2: Oh, it's so expensive.

549
00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:07,000
Speaker 5: You know who's feeling it the worst, people that live

550
00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:11,239
Speaker 5: in blue governed states. Yeah, things suck for you if

551
00:27:11,280 --> 00:27:13,200
Speaker 5: you live in a blue state, There's no doubt about it.

552
00:27:13,840 --> 00:27:16,840
Speaker 5: And I'm really sorry about that. But that's why people

553
00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:21,840
Speaker 5: are leaving, fleeing, running to states like Florida and Tennessee.

554
00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:24,480
Speaker 5: You know, it's so funny. I hear from my friends

555
00:27:24,520 --> 00:27:28,159
Speaker 5: in New Jersey or you know, Pennsylvania that's barely got

556
00:27:28,160 --> 00:27:32,639
Speaker 5: a Republican presence in the legislature, and it's like, yeah, guys,

557
00:27:32,680 --> 00:27:35,880
Speaker 5: you live in a poorly governed state. That's why things

558
00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:38,520
Speaker 5: are so damned expensive. That's why things are so inefficient,

559
00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:40,440
Speaker 5: That's why it feels lawless.

560
00:27:41,680 --> 00:27:41,960
Speaker 2: Move.

561
00:27:43,480 --> 00:27:45,639
Speaker 5: I don't know what else to tell you, but you

562
00:27:45,680 --> 00:27:47,360
Speaker 5: can't lay it all at Trump's feet. You know, people say,

563
00:27:47,359 --> 00:27:50,040
Speaker 5: I'm still paying five something a gallon for gas in California.

564
00:27:50,280 --> 00:27:55,440
Speaker 5: I'm real sorry, but that ain't President Trump's fault. Eight

599
00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:19,520
Speaker 5: Times piece, I really recommend it to you for a laugh.

600
00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:21,160
Speaker 2: I mean it's a laugher.

601
00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:26,720
Speaker 5: Actually, it's an opinion piece written by somebody called Nicholas Bagley, today,

602
00:29:26,840 --> 00:29:30,960
Speaker 5: law professor at the University of Michigan and former legal

603
00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:37,360
Speaker 5: counsel to the Wicked Snow Queen Governor Gretchen Whitmer. You

604
00:29:37,400 --> 00:29:40,760
Speaker 5: won't believe this. I mean, I can't believe I'm reading it.

605
00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:44,320
Speaker 5: He's trying to say, we love unions. We love unions,

606
00:29:44,360 --> 00:29:48,080
Speaker 5: I mean, we absolutely love unions. But you know, these

607
00:29:48,120 --> 00:29:52,800
Speaker 5: public sector unions are really killing us Democrats.

608
00:29:52,800 --> 00:29:53,680
Speaker 2: Everybody's leaving.

609
00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:56,160
Speaker 5: And the way we fund public sector unions is with

610
00:29:56,240 --> 00:30:00,400
Speaker 5: taxpayer money, and we keep losing taxpayers. So public sector unions,

611
00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:01,960
Speaker 5: we love you, we love you, we love what you do.

612
00:30:02,040 --> 00:30:04,880
Speaker 5: You're pure as the wind driven snow. But please stop

613
00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:11,440
Speaker 5: expecting so much. Please Disagreeing with public sector unions does

614
00:30:11,480 --> 00:30:13,320
Speaker 5: not make you anti union. This is in the New

615
00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:18,920
Speaker 5: York Times this morning. Hello, New York Times. Disagreeing with

616
00:30:19,120 --> 00:30:21,200
Speaker 5: public sector unions does not make you anti union. It

617
00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:24,440
Speaker 5: means you recognize the difference between the public and private sectors.

618
00:30:24,600 --> 00:30:28,080
Speaker 5: Private sector unions negotiate with companies to share business profits.

619
00:30:28,520 --> 00:30:31,920
Speaker 5: Public sector unions negotiate with public officials who represent us

620
00:30:31,920 --> 00:30:32,680
Speaker 5: all the.

621
00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:35,440
Speaker 2: Taxpayer, You buffoon, that's what you mean.

622
00:30:35,920 --> 00:30:39,800
Speaker 5: Yes, public sector unions are paid with our tax dollars.

623
00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:44,080
Speaker 5: They don't negotiate with public officials. They negotiate with the taxpayer.

624
00:30:45,840 --> 00:30:48,880
Speaker 5: Those same officials often stand for elections in which unions

625
00:30:48,920 --> 00:30:55,840
Speaker 5: have outsize influence. No, you don't say when unions secure

626
00:30:55,960 --> 00:30:57,120
Speaker 5: undue concessions.

627
00:30:57,200 --> 00:30:58,680
Speaker 2: It's the public that pays.

628
00:30:58,960 --> 00:31:03,920
Speaker 5: Oh wow, this is earth shattering stuff from the New

629
00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:07,719
Speaker 5: York Times. Folks. A law professor at the University of Michigan,

630
00:31:07,840 --> 00:31:11,960
Speaker 5: Nicholas Bagley and former Council to the Wicked Snow Queen

631
00:31:12,040 --> 00:31:18,240
Speaker 5: Governor Gretchen Whitmer just discovering that public sector unions are

632
00:31:18,320 --> 00:31:23,280
Speaker 5: exacting undue concessions from politicians representing the taxpayer, and the

633
00:31:23,320 --> 00:31:26,239
Speaker 5: taxpayers are leaving and the cities and states that are

634
00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:31,840
Speaker 5: represented by them are going broke. Shazam who knew eight

635
00:31:31,880 --> 00:31:32,280
Speaker 5: five five?

636
00:31:32,320 --> 00:31:32,720
Speaker 2: STI golf?

637
00:31:32,760 --> 00:31:34,160
Speaker 5: So what do you want to hear from the Republicans?

638
00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:36,360
Speaker 5: What do you want to hear from President Trump? Let's

639
00:31:36,400 --> 00:31:39,440
Speaker 5: go to Detroit talk to Tom Tom. Good morning, glad

640
00:31:39,480 --> 00:31:40,440
Speaker 5: you called. What's on your mind?

641
00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:44,280
Speaker 14: Great to talk to you again, Michael, Mike Tomlin is

642
00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:47,600
Speaker 14: shar and sweet. But when you're in DC, kay, I

643
00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:50,920
Speaker 14: think as a Republican party should start doing something with

644
00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:55,160
Speaker 14: their hands other than sitting on them and start with

645
00:31:55,280 --> 00:31:58,560
Speaker 14: John Tune with the Save Act. And I think it

646
00:31:58,720 --> 00:32:01,720
Speaker 14: is said a whole lot god Quinistler said, if they

647
00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:05,800
Speaker 14: do not pass the Save Act, he is out. Okay,

648
00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:08,440
Speaker 14: after all the man did in Pennsylvania, U K. And

649
00:32:08,520 --> 00:32:12,920
Speaker 14: across the country, but specifically Pennsylvania. Yep, It's about time

650
00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:17,120
Speaker 14: mister soon starts doing something, Okay or conress as a.

651
00:32:17,080 --> 00:32:19,200
Speaker 5: Whole got Tom, Thank you, my friend. Let's go to

652
00:32:19,320 --> 00:32:22,120
Speaker 5: James in Newport, Tennessee. Next. James, how about you? What

653
00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:23,200
Speaker 5: do you want to see happen here?

654
00:32:23,200 --> 00:32:27,680
Speaker 15: Good morning, Good morning, mister stigahlf one. I'd like to

655
00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:30,600
Speaker 15: see the Save Act pass because I would restore confidence

656
00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:33,120
Speaker 15: in our voting a lot of people have been complaining

657
00:32:33,120 --> 00:32:35,920
Speaker 15: about the voting process and all my vote doesn't count

658
00:32:35,960 --> 00:32:40,360
Speaker 15: type thing. Another thing would be eliminate the congressional area

659
00:32:40,520 --> 00:32:44,760
Speaker 15: where congressmen are allowed to lie to reporters and stuff

660
00:32:44,760 --> 00:32:47,560
Speaker 15: like that, like Chuck Schumer's claiming the Save Act is

661
00:32:48,320 --> 00:32:51,160
Speaker 15: you know, Jim Crow two point zero. They need to

662
00:32:51,240 --> 00:32:54,240
Speaker 15: eliminate lying. If you work in the professional world or

663
00:32:54,240 --> 00:32:55,800
Speaker 15: something like that, if you lie to your boss, you

664
00:32:55,840 --> 00:32:56,400
Speaker 15: get fired.

665
00:32:56,520 --> 00:32:59,520
Speaker 5: Yeah, So it would be the Save Act that excites

666
00:32:59,560 --> 00:33:01,880
Speaker 5: you and uses you. You'd get excited about.

667
00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:04,600
Speaker 2: That, oh the most Okay, all right, well.

668
00:33:04,480 --> 00:33:06,480
Speaker 5: That's two for the Save Act. How about Detroit and

669
00:33:06,600 --> 00:33:08,600
Speaker 5: Nick this time? Hey, what do you say in Detroit?

670
00:33:08,680 --> 00:33:08,840
Speaker 16: Nick?

671
00:33:08,840 --> 00:33:09,320
Speaker 2: Good morning?

672
00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:10,960
Speaker 13: Hey, good morning?

673
00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:12,719
Speaker 2: Can you hear me all right, loud and clear? What

674
00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:15,040
Speaker 2: would excite you about this Republican bunch?

675
00:33:15,720 --> 00:33:15,960
Speaker 17: Christ?

676
00:33:16,440 --> 00:33:17,560
Speaker 18: So that was the best morning ever?

677
00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:19,800
Speaker 2: Wow, okay, I'll take it. Thank you.

678
00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:25,200
Speaker 18: Yeah, feeling good with the coffee. I was wondering the

679
00:33:25,320 --> 00:33:27,560
Speaker 18: housing market if he's going to talk on that at all,

680
00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:30,200
Speaker 18: And you know, he talked about the changes in price

681
00:33:30,280 --> 00:33:32,240
Speaker 18: the chips and they're they're up. They're going to stay up.

682
00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:36,560
Speaker 18: The housing market. You know what leverage could be done there.

683
00:33:36,600 --> 00:33:38,479
Speaker 18: I know interest rates have come down a little bit,

684
00:33:39,040 --> 00:33:42,600
Speaker 18: but my thought was, like these bigger companies like black

685
00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:45,920
Speaker 18: Rock or like Airbnb, like his rental companies like it

686
00:33:46,040 --> 00:33:49,640
Speaker 18: just really eats up these homes that single families, you know,

687
00:33:49,960 --> 00:33:52,440
Speaker 18: shortage on homes, and you know what what leverage can

688
00:33:52,800 --> 00:33:55,040
Speaker 18: can his administration do I help out?

689
00:33:55,720 --> 00:33:58,280
Speaker 5: I know he has pledged to end the practice of

690
00:33:58,320 --> 00:34:02,640
Speaker 5: these large scale companies buying up holmes in mass I

691
00:34:02,640 --> 00:34:04,400
Speaker 5: don't know if he's taken executive action on that or

692
00:34:04,440 --> 00:34:07,240
Speaker 5: advocated for legislative action or maybe both. I got to

693
00:34:07,280 --> 00:34:10,160
Speaker 5: research that further. I bet he addresses that. But housing

694
00:34:10,239 --> 00:34:12,120
Speaker 5: is something in particular that's sensitive to you.

695
00:34:13,840 --> 00:34:14,480
Speaker 14: Oh yeah, yeah.

696
00:34:14,640 --> 00:34:17,239
Speaker 18: I mean cheapest house we can find a nice area

697
00:34:17,280 --> 00:34:19,319
Speaker 18: is like three hundred and fifty thousand, and I guess

698
00:34:19,360 --> 00:34:22,440
Speaker 18: that's not bad, but you know, it's a lot more

699
00:34:22,480 --> 00:34:24,120
Speaker 18: than what it was six years ago.

700
00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:27,040
Speaker 5: Are you off? You're a first time buyer. You're looking

701
00:34:27,040 --> 00:34:28,440
Speaker 5: for the first time So.

702
00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:30,120
Speaker 18: I use a v alone my first time around, and

703
00:34:30,280 --> 00:34:31,800
Speaker 18: I wouldn't be able to afford it, but didn't have

704
00:34:31,840 --> 00:34:36,239
Speaker 18: like a vah sipens out in Colorado. If the v

705
00:34:36,320 --> 00:34:38,520
Speaker 18: a Long's great, great benefits, but I don't have those

706
00:34:38,560 --> 00:34:40,880
Speaker 18: anymore since I'm out, and you know, I got to

707
00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:43,000
Speaker 18: do it the regular way, and I can do it.

708
00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:45,080
Speaker 18: It's just not I know a lot of people.

709
00:34:44,960 --> 00:34:45,600
Speaker 19: Struggle with it.

710
00:34:45,640 --> 00:34:48,160
Speaker 5: All right, Nick, I'm here's what I'm promising. I'm going

711
00:34:48,239 --> 00:34:50,920
Speaker 5: to ask about housing today on Capitol Hill and we're

712
00:34:50,920 --> 00:34:52,479
Speaker 5: going to see if the President talks about it tonight.

713
00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:55,000
Speaker 5: I bet he does. Meanwhile, rough Green's I want to

714
00:34:55,000 --> 00:34:56,680
Speaker 5: talk to you about that. If your dog is of

715
00:34:56,719 --> 00:34:59,360
Speaker 5: a certain age like mine, older, and you want to

716
00:34:59,400 --> 00:35:01,279
Speaker 5: keep him or healthy and with you as long as

717
00:35:01,320 --> 00:35:05,960
Speaker 5: humanly possible, rough Greens is a great start. It's great nutrients, enzymes,

718
00:35:06,040 --> 00:35:12,719
Speaker 5: vitamins that give your dog all that living nutrient benefit

719
00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:15,239
Speaker 5: that we don't get in processed dog food.

720
00:35:15,280 --> 00:35:15,800
Speaker 2: You just don't.

721
00:35:16,080 --> 00:35:19,200
Speaker 5: In fact, what doctor Black, who created rough Greens years ago,

722
00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:20,640
Speaker 5: says dog food is dead food.

723
00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:21,160
Speaker 2: It's just true.

724
00:35:21,200 --> 00:35:26,319
Speaker 5: It's processed and there aren't really any beneficial nutrients in it.

725
00:35:26,360 --> 00:35:29,200
Speaker 5: Despite what the packaging may say. Rough Greens does it.

726
00:35:29,840 --> 00:35:32,279
Speaker 5: I open up my canister every day, give Dean a

727
00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:35,279
Speaker 5: tablespoon of it, and he is as energetic and happy

728
00:35:35,320 --> 00:35:35,759
Speaker 5: as he can be.

729
00:35:35,800 --> 00:35:36,200
Speaker 2: He loves it.

730
00:35:36,200 --> 00:35:37,840
Speaker 5: If your dog doesn't eat very well or has some

731
00:35:37,920 --> 00:35:41,960
Speaker 5: digestive issues, this is your ticket. Areuffgreens dot com promo

734
00:35:47,120 --> 00:35:50,760
Speaker 5: dieted all of your life, I certainly have Keto Paleo

735
00:35:51,440 --> 00:35:54,880
Speaker 5: weight watchers intermittent fasting. You lose weight, and I have.

736
00:35:55,000 --> 00:35:57,640
Speaker 5: I've lost dramatic amounts of weight before, only to gain

737
00:35:57,719 --> 00:36:01,120
Speaker 5: it back and then some and probably kick yourself for it.

738
00:36:01,160 --> 00:36:03,040
Speaker 5: And you think it's all about your own willpower and

739
00:36:03,080 --> 00:36:06,080
Speaker 5: your own lack of discipline. Look, maybe there's some of that,

740
00:36:06,160 --> 00:36:07,759
Speaker 5: but the real truth of it is it was not

741
00:36:08,320 --> 00:36:11,880
Speaker 5: strictly about willpower. There is one thing only that determines

742
00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:15,239
Speaker 5: whether your body burns fat or stores fat. And if

743
00:36:15,239 --> 00:36:17,880
Speaker 5: you don't know how to fix that, every diet you're

744
00:36:17,920 --> 00:36:22,640
Speaker 5: ever going to try fails. That's all that changed for

745
00:36:22,800 --> 00:36:26,040
Speaker 5: me was looking at it differently, and PhD Weight Loss

746
00:36:26,080 --> 00:36:28,400
Speaker 5: told me how to look at it differently. Doctor Ashley

747
00:36:28,480 --> 00:36:31,600
Speaker 5: Lucas and I started talking about her program and why

748
00:36:31,640 --> 00:36:34,680
Speaker 5: it's worked so well for some of my colleagues, and

749
00:36:34,719 --> 00:36:37,600
Speaker 5: how she's different and so when I went on this

750
00:36:37,640 --> 00:36:40,800
Speaker 5: program last year and I began to eat real food.

751
00:36:41,480 --> 00:36:43,520
Speaker 5: I didn't have to take any kind of shots or

752
00:36:43,520 --> 00:36:45,719
Speaker 5: any kind of gimmicky drugs or anything like that. It

753
00:36:45,760 --> 00:36:49,239
Speaker 5: was just purely understanding how my body best metabolizes food,

754
00:36:49,360 --> 00:36:52,960
Speaker 5: when to eat, what to eat, and not starving myself

755
00:36:53,000 --> 00:36:56,640
Speaker 5: by the way. And here's the deal. You start to

756
00:36:56,680 --> 00:37:00,440
Speaker 5: have real victories quickly. And I lost over forty and

757
00:37:00,600 --> 00:37:04,680
Speaker 5: under four months time fast. Eddie, our executive producer, was

758
00:37:04,719 --> 00:37:07,040
Speaker 5: so impressed with it, he said, I wouldn't mind trying it.

759
00:37:07,239 --> 00:37:08,680
Speaker 5: I said, how much you want to lose? He said

760
00:37:08,719 --> 00:37:11,959
Speaker 5: fifty pounds. So we dialed up Ashley Lucas and I said,

761
00:37:11,960 --> 00:37:14,799
Speaker 5: can Eddie lose fifty pounds along with me here? And

762
00:37:14,840 --> 00:37:17,799
Speaker 5: she said, oh absolutely, Let's give it till May. So

763
00:37:17,840 --> 00:37:20,920
Speaker 5: he started the program. Folks, he is already halfway to

764
00:37:21,040 --> 00:37:24,480
Speaker 5: his goal after just thirteen weeks or so. So, I mean,

765
00:37:24,480 --> 00:37:26,839
Speaker 5: you're talking about over twenty five pounds in a matter

766
00:37:26,920 --> 00:37:28,480
Speaker 5: of weeks. That could be your story.

767
00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:29,480
Speaker 13: Now.

768
00:37:29,480 --> 00:37:31,879
Speaker 5: I have managed to lose that kind of weight last

769
00:37:31,920 --> 00:37:34,680
Speaker 5: year and coming into a new year keeping that weight off.

770
00:37:34,680 --> 00:37:37,200
Speaker 5: That's the first time in my weight loss history that

771
00:37:37,280 --> 00:37:39,279
Speaker 5: I've lost that kind of weight and maintained the weight

772
00:37:39,320 --> 00:37:42,520
Speaker 5: loss because at PhD Weight Loss they've identified that one

773
00:37:42,640 --> 00:37:46,440
Speaker 5: thing about your system that you can kick into action

774
00:37:46,480 --> 00:37:48,800
Speaker 5: and help you lose that weight and keep the body

775
00:37:48,840 --> 00:37:51,359
Speaker 5: working for you, not against you. And if you call

776
00:37:51,440 --> 00:37:53,640

808
00:39:23,040 --> 00:39:25,640
Speaker 5: the Tuesday edition of this stagallf Show. We're in Washington,

809
00:39:25,719 --> 00:39:29,279
Speaker 5: d C. Today, beautiful looking sunny start. It's windy out

810
00:39:29,280 --> 00:39:32,359
Speaker 5: there today, but not a lot of snow. They got

811
00:39:32,400 --> 00:39:34,960
Speaker 5: away with it here to the north, not so much,

812
00:39:35,080 --> 00:39:38,320
Speaker 5: but not bad. Here in your nation's capital, where the

813
00:39:38,320 --> 00:39:41,880
Speaker 5: State of the Union will happen. Tonight, President Trump addresses

814
00:39:41,920 --> 00:39:45,600
Speaker 5: the nation members of Congress, apparently some of the women.

815
00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:49,880
Speaker 5: I'm told this from the CBS News, Folks. When President

816
00:39:49,920 --> 00:39:52,799
Speaker 5: Trump's gives his State of the Union address tonight, more

817
00:39:52,840 --> 00:39:57,279
Speaker 5: than a dozen Democrat congresswomen plan to again make a

818
00:39:57,320 --> 00:40:04,040
Speaker 5: sartorial political statement by wearing white. Democrat congresswomen have used

819
00:40:04,120 --> 00:40:06,839
Speaker 5: fashion as a form of protest against mister Trump since

820
00:40:06,840 --> 00:40:10,320
Speaker 5: his first address. In the years since, they've mostly stuck

821
00:40:10,360 --> 00:40:13,239
Speaker 5: with that choice, with the exception of twenty eighteen, when

822
00:40:13,239 --> 00:40:17,480
Speaker 5: some more black to support the Me Too movement. They

823
00:40:17,480 --> 00:40:21,640
Speaker 5: also broke tradition last year, when technically not a State

824
00:40:21,680 --> 00:40:24,400
Speaker 5: of the Union, they wore pink to highlight their opposition

825
00:40:24,480 --> 00:40:28,480
Speaker 5: to mister Trump's policies. This year, what do you think

826
00:40:28,520 --> 00:40:32,240
Speaker 5: this year they're going to specifically wear white to support

827
00:40:32,520 --> 00:40:34,839
Speaker 5: or recognize or what it is they think they're going

828
00:40:34,880 --> 00:40:38,680
Speaker 5: to I don't know where they're going to message to

829
00:40:38,719 --> 00:40:40,520
Speaker 5: the American people. What do you think they're going to

830
00:40:40,640 --> 00:40:45,680
Speaker 5: try to message wearing white this year? If you guessed

831
00:40:46,160 --> 00:40:50,399
Speaker 5: women's right to vote you win. That's honestly what they

832
00:40:50,400 --> 00:40:52,759
Speaker 5: think they're going to try to sell that women are

833
00:40:52,800 --> 00:40:55,960
Speaker 5: losing their right to vote in the country. You know,

834
00:40:56,400 --> 00:40:59,239
Speaker 5: we have a new team member here at the Stagall Show.

835
00:40:59,239 --> 00:41:02,239
Speaker 5: Her name is Jeff and Jess. Let me just ask you.

836
00:41:02,360 --> 00:41:04,759
Speaker 5: Let's bring in a female perspective, the first bit of

837
00:41:04,880 --> 00:41:08,200
Speaker 5: estrogen to be injected into this show. Jess, you're a

838
00:41:08,280 --> 00:41:09,360
Speaker 5: voting age true.

839
00:41:09,600 --> 00:41:09,960
Speaker 6: I am.

840
00:41:10,520 --> 00:41:10,840
Speaker 2: Yeah.

841
00:41:11,040 --> 00:41:14,640
Speaker 5: Do you, in any way, shape, matter or form, feel

842
00:41:14,680 --> 00:41:16,640
Speaker 5: as though now are you married or unmarried?

843
00:41:16,640 --> 00:41:17,759
Speaker 2: I haven't even asked you that yet.

844
00:41:17,880 --> 00:41:18,440
Speaker 20: I am married.

845
00:41:18,560 --> 00:41:22,239
Speaker 5: You're married, okay, So do you feel that you have

846
00:41:22,640 --> 00:41:25,040
Speaker 5: a difficult time voting as a married woman in the

847
00:41:25,120 --> 00:41:25,960
Speaker 5: United States?

848
00:41:26,280 --> 00:41:29,640
Speaker 20: No, I've been able to vote in about three elections

849
00:41:29,719 --> 00:41:33,000
Speaker 20: in actually several different states, and I have never had

850
00:41:33,040 --> 00:41:35,480
Speaker 20: an issue And I've never had my husband step in

851
00:41:35,520 --> 00:41:38,520
Speaker 20: the way or provide any issue there. I've even changed

852
00:41:38,520 --> 00:41:40,880
Speaker 20: my name legally and still I've never had a problem.

853
00:41:41,160 --> 00:41:42,800
Speaker 5: Oh Nessie, I was going to ask you that next.

854
00:41:42,880 --> 00:41:44,640
Speaker 5: You have not had your name changed.

855
00:41:45,280 --> 00:41:47,359
Speaker 20: I have had my name changed and I haven't had

856
00:41:47,400 --> 00:41:48,080
Speaker 20: any issues.

857
00:41:48,640 --> 00:41:52,319
Speaker 5: Oh oh, well, now you've really blown the Democrats storyline.

858
00:41:52,360 --> 00:41:54,759
Speaker 5: You had your name you took your husband's name, and

859
00:41:54,800 --> 00:41:56,120
Speaker 5: we're still allowed to vote.

860
00:41:56,320 --> 00:41:58,840
Speaker 20: I was I've been allowed to vote in both Virginia

861
00:41:58,920 --> 00:42:00,799
Speaker 20: and California.

862
00:42:00,000 --> 00:42:03,439
Speaker 2: Two different states, even two different states with your husband's name.

863
00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:06,960
Speaker 5: Yep. I thought you ceased to exist as a human

864
00:42:06,960 --> 00:42:09,200
Speaker 5: being once you took your husband's last name in this country.

865
00:42:09,239 --> 00:42:10,680
Speaker 2: You voted in two different states.

866
00:42:10,920 --> 00:42:14,160
Speaker 5: They let me, all right, well, you're an anomaly. I

867
00:42:14,200 --> 00:42:16,120
Speaker 5: guess the ladies and Congress are going to wear white

868
00:42:16,160 --> 00:42:19,279

Speaker 5: Been and a lot of you have wanted to get

Speaker 5: in on this, and I'm grateful because we're going to

875
00:42:32,400 --> 00:42:35,800
Speaker 5: Capitol Hill today to talk with Republicans about their agenda

876
00:42:35,840 --> 00:42:37,840
Speaker 5: for the rest of the year, such that it is

877
00:42:37,920 --> 00:42:39,879
Speaker 5: the rest of the year before November, and what could

878
00:42:39,920 --> 00:42:43,919
Speaker 5: actually excite you to turn out for them and maybe

879
00:42:43,920 --> 00:42:46,279
Speaker 5: even door knock and get active and animated because we

880
00:42:46,360 --> 00:42:48,640
Speaker 5: know the Democrats are A lot of you have been

881
00:42:48,680 --> 00:42:51,759
Speaker 5: patient today. I appreciate that. And West Virginia. Terry has

882
00:42:51,800 --> 00:42:54,319
Speaker 5: been waiting. Hey, Terry, glad you called. Good morning, welcome in.

883
00:42:55,560 --> 00:42:56,520
Speaker 11: Hey, good morning.

884
00:42:56,760 --> 00:42:57,399
Speaker 2: What's on your mind?

885
00:42:57,440 --> 00:42:57,600
Speaker 8: Sir?

886
00:42:59,160 --> 00:42:59,279
Speaker 19: Well?

887
00:42:59,320 --> 00:43:02,440
Speaker 11: I was wondering what they don't the Trump team doesn't

888
00:43:02,480 --> 00:43:05,879
Speaker 11: continue using the podcaster like they did. That's what got

889
00:43:05,920 --> 00:43:08,960
Speaker 11: him elected. Remember that Aaron Trump said, oh, you got

890
00:43:08,960 --> 00:43:12,640
Speaker 11: to go on Joe Rogan. He used THEO Vaughn and

891
00:43:12,719 --> 00:43:15,239
Speaker 11: Joe Rogan to get themselves in the top position, and

892
00:43:15,320 --> 00:43:17,719
Speaker 11: it worked, and then they just got comfortable and went

893
00:43:17,760 --> 00:43:22,080
Speaker 11: to sleep. Why isn't somebody from the Trump team consistently

894
00:43:22,120 --> 00:43:25,799
Speaker 11: out on these podcasts given out their message because as

895
00:43:25,800 --> 00:43:28,960
Speaker 11: of right now, it's like ninety nine of the narrative

896
00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:32,000
Speaker 11: of Trump's second term is being broadcast to the people

897
00:43:32,360 --> 00:43:34,279
Speaker 11: by mainstream media CNN.

898
00:43:35,360 --> 00:43:39,000
Speaker 5: So they used the Joe Rogan vessels and shows like

899
00:43:39,040 --> 00:43:40,879
Speaker 5: his to get to the White House. But once they

900
00:43:40,880 --> 00:43:42,680
Speaker 5: got there, what do you think? Do you think they

901
00:43:42,760 --> 00:43:44,600
Speaker 5: forgot how to do it?

902
00:43:45,920 --> 00:43:50,320
Speaker 11: I don't know, but I mean between Caroline Levitt's pressers

903
00:43:50,360 --> 00:43:53,680
Speaker 11: and President Trump answering a few questions on Air Force one,

904
00:43:54,160 --> 00:43:57,319
Speaker 11: that's it that I can see. That's all they're doing

905
00:43:57,400 --> 00:43:59,880
Speaker 11: to get their messaging out that's.

906
00:43:59,719 --> 00:44:02,880
Speaker 5: A student observation, Terry. I think it's a great one.

907
00:44:03,520 --> 00:44:05,919
Speaker 5: You think that would change the dynamic, particularly with younger people,

908
00:44:05,960 --> 00:44:08,080
Speaker 5: if they started going back to those venues.

909
00:44:08,640 --> 00:44:13,560
Speaker 11: With the young men that are apparently disheartened with you know,

910
00:44:14,320 --> 00:44:16,160
Speaker 11: I don't know what's true and what is but when

911
00:44:16,160 --> 00:44:20,400
Speaker 11: they say they regret voting for Trump, now, well come on,

912
00:44:20,520 --> 00:44:22,279
Speaker 11: somebody needs to get out there and tell the young

913
00:44:22,320 --> 00:44:23,960
Speaker 11: men what's in it for them.

914
00:44:24,880 --> 00:44:26,920
Speaker 5: I can't disagree with a word of that, Terry. I

915
00:44:27,440 --> 00:44:30,120
Speaker 5: agree with you wholeheartedly, and it's something that I'm going

916
00:44:30,160 --> 00:44:32,319
Speaker 5: to investigate, and I've been very curious about myself. Thank

917
00:44:32,360 --> 00:44:34,400
Speaker 5: you for the call, and I'm going to pass that

918
00:44:34,440 --> 00:44:38,640
Speaker 5: along and any insights into that. Some have brought that

919
00:44:38,680 --> 00:44:41,320
Speaker 5: to my attention. I called him the podcast president. I

920
00:44:41,360 --> 00:44:43,360
Speaker 5: think I literally wrote that at the Rump Society, he

921
00:44:43,440 --> 00:44:46,920
Speaker 5: was the podcast president and they've since kind of abandoned

922
00:44:46,960 --> 00:44:50,759
Speaker 5: that strategy that was supposedly his youngest son, Baron's strategy.

923
00:44:51,680 --> 00:44:53,480
Speaker 5: Baron had a great deal of influence. I think the

924
00:44:53,520 --> 00:44:55,719
Speaker 5: first Lady has even said as much that Baron told

925
00:44:55,760 --> 00:44:58,359
Speaker 5: the President, hey, you need to start appearing on these

926
00:44:58,520 --> 00:45:01,440
Speaker 5: hot podcasts and worked a great effect, but now they

927
00:45:01,440 --> 00:45:01,960
Speaker 5: don't do that.

928
00:45:02,200 --> 00:45:03,040
Speaker 2: Any insights as.

929
00:45:02,960 --> 00:45:07,239
Speaker 10: To why I don't, And I don't think that the

930
00:45:07,280 --> 00:45:10,560
Speaker 10: people were talking about Vance Trump. They're very smart, they

931
00:45:10,840 --> 00:45:12,560
Speaker 10: know how to answer questions, so I don't think that

932
00:45:12,640 --> 00:45:14,680
Speaker 10: they would be gotcha in the way that you know,

933
00:45:14,760 --> 00:45:17,920
Speaker 10: Kamala thought maybe she would be on the podcast Bros.

934
00:45:17,960 --> 00:45:18,360
Speaker 9: Shows.

935
00:45:18,760 --> 00:45:22,600
Speaker 10: But they've also been very measured with who they reach

936
00:45:22,640 --> 00:45:27,040
Speaker 10: out with. So, for example, Fox News almost gets the

937
00:45:27,080 --> 00:45:29,640
Speaker 10: exclusive for anybody. So it's just like, oh, you know,

938
00:45:30,000 --> 00:45:33,040
Speaker 10: I'm Sean Hannity, we got an exclusive with Vice President Vance.

939
00:45:33,080 --> 00:45:35,840
Speaker 10: It's like, Okay, what's he going to tell Sean Hannity?

940
00:45:36,080 --> 00:45:38,480
Speaker 10: What's Sean a better question? What's Sean not going to

941
00:45:38,480 --> 00:45:40,000
Speaker 10: ask that Joe Rogan is well?

942
00:45:40,000 --> 00:45:43,320
Speaker 5: And also, who watching Fox and Sean Hannity isn't supportive

943
00:45:43,360 --> 00:45:44,960
Speaker 5: of them already? Aren't you kind of preaching to the

944
00:45:45,040 --> 00:45:45,600
Speaker 5: choir rank?

945
00:45:46,320 --> 00:45:49,960
Speaker 10: Exactly so? And the same goes for and I've noticed

946
00:45:49,960 --> 00:45:52,440
Speaker 10: this too, Chris. The same goes for who they speak

947
00:45:52,480 --> 00:45:55,879
Speaker 10: to in the you know, influencing space. So if you're

948
00:45:55,880 --> 00:45:58,359
Speaker 10: talking about going onto the podcast Bros. Sites where some

949
00:45:58,360 --> 00:46:01,200
Speaker 10: of these guys are not not necessarily conservative, you have

950
00:46:01,239 --> 00:46:06,040
Speaker 10: a whole new contingent of voters in the Republican Party.

951
00:46:06,440 --> 00:46:07,040
Speaker 2: Do they want to.

952
00:46:07,040 --> 00:46:11,080
Speaker 10: Hear from conservative influencers speaking with like the Tom Holmans

953
00:46:11,200 --> 00:46:11,960
Speaker 10: or the JD.

954
00:46:12,080 --> 00:46:12,640
Speaker 2: Van Says or.

955
00:46:12,640 --> 00:46:21,680
Speaker 5: Trump's Yeah, do you think that? Is it possible that

956
00:46:21,760 --> 00:46:25,840
Speaker 5: a lot of these podcast venues are focused on things

957
00:46:25,840 --> 00:46:27,439
Speaker 5: that the White House would rather not be?

958
00:46:29,160 --> 00:46:31,239
Speaker 2: Sure? Sure? Absolutely?

959
00:46:31,400 --> 00:46:34,279
Speaker 5: But for instance, dare I even say it the I word?

960
00:46:35,760 --> 00:46:37,560
Speaker 2: Right? Do I say that? Do I say the I word?

961
00:46:38,200 --> 00:46:43,080
Speaker 5: I mean, I like, does President Trump want to get

962
00:46:43,080 --> 00:46:45,920
Speaker 5: into it back and forth with us? You know, I'm

963
00:46:45,920 --> 00:46:49,160
Speaker 5: not going to name names, but a particular podcaster on Israel,

964
00:46:49,200 --> 00:46:51,759
Speaker 5: for instance, who I'm told, by the way, visited the

965
00:46:51,760 --> 00:46:58,280
Speaker 5: White House again yesterday after a pretty high profile pitched

966
00:46:58,320 --> 00:47:00,879
Speaker 5: battle again over the subject of Israel. He went back

967
00:47:00,920 --> 00:47:03,319
Speaker 5: there apparently again to the White House. So he's got

968
00:47:03,320 --> 00:47:05,640
Speaker 5: their ear, but for some reason he doesn't seem to

969
00:47:05,640 --> 00:47:09,720
Speaker 5: be much on board with them. So it's intriguing. Terry

970
00:47:09,800 --> 00:47:12,479
Speaker 5: is onto something there from West Virginia, Eddie. I think

971
00:47:12,520 --> 00:47:16,200
Speaker 5: with the messaging and the venue choices, I mean, President

972
00:47:16,239 --> 00:47:20,360
Speaker 5: Trump is again making himself available to some hostile media outlets. Yeah,

973
00:47:20,440 --> 00:47:22,840
Speaker 5: and by the way, he chooses that you should know.

974
00:47:23,080 --> 00:47:27,640
Speaker 5: I believe this wholeheartedly. President Trump still is a creature

975
00:47:27,719 --> 00:47:31,600
Speaker 5: of old He still sees the New York Times, the

976
00:47:31,719 --> 00:47:36,480
Speaker 5: Washington Post, NBCCBS, ABC. I think he still sees them

977
00:47:36,480 --> 00:47:38,879
Speaker 5: as places where he can win them over and convert them.

978
00:47:38,960 --> 00:47:41,480
Speaker 5: That's what he came up knowing the traditional media. And

979
00:47:41,520 --> 00:47:44,200
Speaker 5: I think he thinks with great policy he can impact

980
00:47:44,239 --> 00:47:46,120
Speaker 5: and affect things to such a degree that they will

981
00:47:46,120 --> 00:47:50,319
Speaker 5: have no choice but to come around. Plus his winning personality,

982
00:47:50,640 --> 00:47:54,400
Speaker 5: he'll win over these hostile venues. I still, in my heart,

983
00:47:54,520 --> 00:47:57,960
Speaker 5: I think that's really what Trump believes sincerely, that he

984
00:47:58,000 --> 00:48:02,040
Speaker 5: can convert people that are hostile to him. And maybe

985
00:48:02,040 --> 00:48:06,040
Speaker 5: there's the calculation that either these podcast places are no

986
00:48:06,120 --> 00:48:10,319
Speaker 5: longer necessarily friendly, or we'll start asking stuff that they

987
00:48:10,400 --> 00:48:12,200
Speaker 5: just don't want to make a focus right now. They

988
00:48:12,200 --> 00:48:13,759
Speaker 5: don't want to talk about Epstein, they don't want to

989
00:48:13,760 --> 00:48:16,480
Speaker 5: talk about Israel. They want to talk about the economy.

990
00:48:18,000 --> 00:48:21,400
Speaker 5: Is that a fair caution ed, If that's what they're thinking,

991
00:48:21,880 --> 00:48:22,520
Speaker 5: it's a.

992
00:48:22,440 --> 00:48:26,960
Speaker 10: Fair caution, But you're not reaching those people that you

993
00:48:27,000 --> 00:48:30,839
Speaker 10: need to reach then, because that's unfortunately, you know, you've

994
00:48:30,840 --> 00:48:33,719
Speaker 10: said even some of the young men, you know, even

995
00:48:33,760 --> 00:48:37,080
Speaker 10: your sons have just like asked about yep, you know,

996
00:48:37,120 --> 00:48:39,560
Speaker 10: the Epstein thing, the Israel thing. It's like, oh, okay,

997
00:48:39,600 --> 00:48:40,839
Speaker 10: so this is where they are.

998
00:48:41,600 --> 00:48:44,839
Speaker 5: Yeah, tackle it head on. Laurie is an eerie Pennsylvania Next, Laurie,

999
00:48:44,840 --> 00:48:47,840
Speaker 5: I'm glad you called. Thanks for waiting. Good morning, Good morning.

1000
00:48:48,120 --> 00:48:48,799
Speaker 5: What's on your mind?

1001
00:48:48,920 --> 00:48:49,160
Speaker 13: Are you?

1002
00:48:50,880 --> 00:48:51,640
Speaker 21: I'm doing good?

1003
00:48:51,920 --> 00:48:52,200
Speaker 2: Good.

1004
00:48:53,480 --> 00:48:56,040
Speaker 21: So what I wanted to say was you were asking

1005
00:48:56,040 --> 00:48:59,480
Speaker 21: about different things you wanted to hear Trump to talk about.

1006
00:49:00,040 --> 00:49:03,440
Speaker 21: And I would like to hear him say that he

1007
00:49:03,520 --> 00:49:06,520
Speaker 21: got a deal with the credit card companies. Capping down

1008
00:49:06,520 --> 00:49:08,880
Speaker 21: to ten percent, you know, for a year would be great,

1009
00:49:09,600 --> 00:49:13,080
Speaker 21: but since Biden got us into this mess, four years

1010
00:49:13,080 --> 00:49:14,040
Speaker 21: would be even better.

1011
00:49:14,640 --> 00:49:16,680
Speaker 19: So maybe he can negotiate a little deal with that.

1012
00:49:17,400 --> 00:49:19,120
Speaker 21: And then also, I think you'll get a chuckle out

1013
00:49:19,120 --> 00:49:23,960
Speaker 21: of this. The women wearing the white tonight, Yeah, waving

1014
00:49:24,000 --> 00:49:24,640
Speaker 21: the white flag.

1015
00:49:26,440 --> 00:49:28,600
Speaker 5: So, Laurie, you heard the maybe you heard in the

1016
00:49:28,640 --> 00:49:31,560
Speaker 5: previous hour a guy said I want him to address mortgages,

1017
00:49:31,600 --> 00:49:33,520
Speaker 5: these big companies buying up a bunch of houses.

1018
00:49:33,600 --> 00:49:35,759
Speaker 2: He has kind of addressed that before, he probably will again.

1019
00:49:35,880 --> 00:49:38,040
Speaker 5: Credit cards would be another You think if he said

1020
00:49:38,080 --> 00:49:40,520
Speaker 5: I'm capping interest on credit cards for a year or something.

1021
00:49:41,280 --> 00:49:42,239
Speaker 14: Yeah, that would be great.

1022
00:49:42,400 --> 00:49:45,239
Speaker 5: Okay, all right, Laurie, thank you for that. We're going

1023
00:49:45,280 --> 00:49:46,960
Speaker 5: to be watching with great interest. I am sure the

1024
00:49:47,000 --> 00:49:48,719
Speaker 5: President's going to be dialed in. You know, Steve Moore's

1025
00:49:48,719 --> 00:49:51,239
Speaker 5: our chief economist. He'll be with us today. I'll float

1026
00:49:51,239 --> 00:49:53,200
Speaker 5: a couple of those things by him. And what if

1027
00:49:53,239 --> 00:49:55,280
Speaker 5: he's in the room with the President helping him craft

1028
00:49:55,280 --> 00:49:58,920
Speaker 5: the speech. What can the President say right now to

1029
00:49:59,000 --> 00:50:02,120
Speaker 5: the country those who are not enthusiastic about him? What

1030
00:50:02,200 --> 00:50:05,080
Speaker 5: could make some enthusiastic about him? Some have said, you

1031
00:50:05,120 --> 00:50:08,560
Speaker 5: really ought to revisit the Stagall plan. I don't disagree.

1032
00:50:08,680 --> 00:50:11,240

1051
00:51:01,360 --> 00:51:03,319
Speaker 5: from the President tonight, what you'd like me to relate

1052
00:51:03,360 --> 00:51:07,879
Speaker 5: to congressional Republicans today and anyone else that I might

1053
00:51:07,960 --> 00:51:10,960
Speaker 5: encounter while here, because you're the reason we're here, You're

1054
00:51:10,960 --> 00:51:12,880
Speaker 5: the reason we do this, and anybody that visits with

1055
00:51:12,920 --> 00:51:14,920
Speaker 5: this show ultimately wants to talk to you. So I

1056
00:51:14,920 --> 00:51:17,120
Speaker 5: want to relay what you'd like to hear to them.

1057
00:51:17,160 --> 00:51:19,600
Speaker 5: At eight five five s togall back to the phones.

1058
00:51:19,680 --> 00:51:22,960
Speaker 5: Let's go to Wyoming and talk to Mary. By the way,

1059
00:51:22,960 --> 00:51:25,640
Speaker 5: we have coming up, Mary, you should know a candidate

1060
00:51:25,680 --> 00:51:28,960
Speaker 5: for Congress there, David Gerrault is coming up. An Army

1061
00:51:29,080 --> 00:51:33,000
Speaker 5: ranger he's running to replace Harriet Hageman, who's running percent

1062
00:51:33,040 --> 00:51:36,480
Speaker 5: at there in Wyoming. Good morning, Mary, Good morning.

1063
00:51:37,200 --> 00:51:40,560
Speaker 22: I'd like to see Trump commit a percentage of the

1064
00:51:40,680 --> 00:51:46,120
Speaker 22: chair of money to reduce the thirty trillion dollar debt.

1065
00:51:46,480 --> 00:51:49,719
Speaker 22: I wanted to see a big spectacle like on a

1066
00:51:49,880 --> 00:51:53,680
Speaker 22: quarterly basis, like a squared game ball drop.

1067
00:51:54,760 --> 00:51:57,439
Speaker 2: I do, and I think it's a great idea.

1068
00:51:57,480 --> 00:51:59,320
Speaker 5: Of course, now the Supreme Court has thrown a wrench

1069
00:51:59,360 --> 00:52:02,000
Speaker 5: in that because all the tariff revenue. Now now we're

1070
00:52:02,000 --> 00:52:04,600
Speaker 5: talking about FedEx today. In fact, I have a story, Mary,

1071
00:52:04,680 --> 00:52:07,320
Speaker 5: and I thank you for the call on that. FedEx

1072
00:52:07,440 --> 00:52:10,080
Speaker 5: is the first to launch a big, high profile lawsuit

1073
00:52:10,160 --> 00:52:14,000
Speaker 5: to claw back the tariff money. So that's going to

1074
00:52:14,040 --> 00:52:16,400
Speaker 5: be something that I'll certainly be asking about. It's on

1075
00:52:16,440 --> 00:52:20,239
Speaker 5: everybody's mind. What about the billions taken in? How do

1076
00:52:20,239 --> 00:52:21,880
Speaker 5: you pay it back? Mary? Is a good one. I

1077
00:52:21,920 --> 00:52:23,560
Speaker 5: appreciate it. Thanks a lot for the call. Let's go

1078
00:52:23,600 --> 00:52:27,680
Speaker 5: to Mark in Michigan. Mark, good morning, Good good morn.

1079
00:52:27,760 --> 00:52:28,000
Speaker 23: Chris.

1080
00:52:28,040 --> 00:52:28,400
Speaker 19: How are you.

1081
00:52:28,480 --> 00:52:29,880
Speaker 2: I'm well, sir, how are you today?

1082
00:52:30,520 --> 00:52:30,719
Speaker 11: Good?

1083
00:52:31,120 --> 00:52:34,000
Speaker 19: Good good. I just want to say that I'm fifty

1084
00:52:34,000 --> 00:52:36,680
Speaker 19: five and the Save Act energizes me. But I have

1085
00:52:36,800 --> 00:52:38,960
Speaker 19: launched my son three or four day in the week

1086
00:52:39,200 --> 00:52:42,360
Speaker 19: and he's twenty five and his body's that voted for Trump.

1087
00:52:42,400 --> 00:52:46,360
Speaker 19: They want to see some arrests. They don't want congressional hearings.

1088
00:52:46,360 --> 00:52:47,840
Speaker 19: They want people in jail.

1089
00:52:48,520 --> 00:52:50,319
Speaker 5: You know, Mark, that is so do you feel that

1090
00:52:50,360 --> 00:52:52,400
Speaker 5: same way? I mean, where does that come from in

1091
00:52:52,440 --> 00:52:54,440
Speaker 5: your view? I mean, or do you identify with that

1092
00:52:54,560 --> 00:52:56,000
Speaker 5: or is that such just something separate for you?

1093
00:52:56,080 --> 00:52:59,759
Speaker 19: Well, in my view, like I tell my son, you

1094
00:52:59,800 --> 00:53:03,160
Speaker 19: guys sort of the instant gratification type generation twenty five

1095
00:53:03,239 --> 00:53:06,799
Speaker 19: year olds, I said, reals, adjustice, take time, take time.

1096
00:53:06,880 --> 00:53:10,440
Speaker 19: So I'm more of a patient person. So I see

1097
00:53:10,880 --> 00:53:14,560
Speaker 19: the administration doing things, but they want instant gratification. I

1098
00:53:14,560 --> 00:53:16,640
Speaker 19: tell him, just give him time, give him time, give

1099
00:53:16,719 --> 00:53:18,799
Speaker 19: him a couple of years. You know, let's let's get

1100
00:53:18,800 --> 00:53:22,000
Speaker 19: this done right so things don't get thrown out in court.

1101
00:53:22,160 --> 00:53:24,759
Speaker 5: Is your twenty five year old Is he a working professional?

1102
00:53:26,040 --> 00:53:29,759
Speaker 19: Oh, he's a worker. He works for a he's in

1103
00:53:29,800 --> 00:53:30,360
Speaker 19: the UAW.

1104
00:53:30,480 --> 00:53:33,520
Speaker 2: But he's conservative, okay, and so does he. How about

1105
00:53:33,520 --> 00:53:34,640
Speaker 2: this affordability issue.

1106
00:53:34,640 --> 00:53:36,640
Speaker 5: We're told that people his age are really out there

1107
00:53:36,680 --> 00:53:38,600
Speaker 5: battling affordability does he sense that.

1108
00:53:40,080 --> 00:53:42,560
Speaker 19: Yes, he sends that a lot because he's trying to

1109
00:53:42,560 --> 00:53:45,719
Speaker 19: buy his first house, and of course he doesn't want

1110
00:53:45,719 --> 00:53:46,160
Speaker 19: to take my.

1111
00:53:46,160 --> 00:53:46,680
Speaker 8: Help right now.

1112
00:53:46,719 --> 00:53:47,960
Speaker 19: He wants to try to do it on his own.

1113
00:53:48,000 --> 00:53:49,440
Speaker 19: And I told him, I said, I'm willing to help

1114
00:53:49,480 --> 00:53:51,680
Speaker 19: you out. He wants to do it on his own.

1115
00:53:52,120 --> 00:53:55,600
Speaker 19: So yeah, and him and his wife are really battling

1116
00:53:55,640 --> 00:53:57,040
Speaker 19: to do that. And he works a lot over time

1117
00:53:57,080 --> 00:53:59,880
Speaker 19: for UAW and stuff like that. So he's putting it

1118
00:54:00,080 --> 00:54:01,400
Speaker 19: sixty seventy hours a weekend.

1119
00:54:01,600 --> 00:54:04,360
Speaker 5: Well, you think he would starry to cut you off there, Mar,

1120
00:54:04,480 --> 00:54:07,480
Speaker 5: You think he would put prosecutions ahead of affordability.

1121
00:54:06,800 --> 00:54:10,440
Speaker 19: Though, just briefly, I think so.

1122
00:54:10,800 --> 00:54:14,200
Speaker 2: Interesting, Mark stand Touch, I like that very much.

1123
00:54:14,200 --> 00:54:16,000
Speaker 5: A fifty five year old dad, I'm not far off

1124
00:54:16,000 --> 00:54:17,799
Speaker 5: from that, A twenty five year old son. I have

1125
00:54:17,840 --> 00:54:21,520
Speaker 5: a son not that far off either. Interesting perspective. Moren

1126
00:54:21,520 --> 00:54:24,000
Speaker 5: a minute, all right, So the theme of this morning

1127
00:54:24,760 --> 00:54:27,200
Speaker 5: here we are in Washington, d C. Of course, the

1128
00:54:27,200 --> 00:54:30,120
Speaker 5: State of the Union is tonight. The Congressional Republicans have

1129
00:54:30,200 --> 00:54:32,640
Speaker 5: invited us to Capitol Hill to speak with them today

1130
00:54:32,760 --> 00:54:35,400
Speaker 5: in advance of the speech, to talk about their agenda.

1131
00:54:35,800 --> 00:54:39,080
Speaker 5: We have a super secret assignment tomorrow, and I'll be

1132
00:54:39,120 --> 00:54:42,279
Speaker 5: telling you more about that. Mark Davis will be in

1133
00:54:42,320 --> 00:54:43,640
Speaker 5: for me here at the desk, but I will be

1134
00:54:43,680 --> 00:54:45,359
Speaker 5: calling in to Mark to let you know a little

1135
00:54:45,400 --> 00:54:47,360
Speaker 5: bit more about our supersecret assignment. In the meantime.

1136
00:54:47,480 --> 00:54:48,560
Speaker 2: Kirsten Pels is with us.

1137
00:54:48,600 --> 00:54:52,719
Speaker 5: She is the press secretary for the RNC and joins

1138
00:54:52,800 --> 00:54:54,800
Speaker 5: us in advance of the State of the Union this morning. Kirsten,

1139
00:54:54,800 --> 00:54:58,120
Speaker 5: it's good to see you again. Good morning, good morning.

1140
00:54:58,160 --> 00:54:59,080
Speaker 6: Thank you for having me.

1141
00:54:59,360 --> 00:55:02,040
Speaker 5: So I've been ask seing people who I presume are

1142
00:55:03,000 --> 00:55:05,799
Speaker 5: fans of the presidents, voters, supporters of the president, and

1143
00:55:05,840 --> 00:55:08,880
Speaker 5: the Republicans generally speaking, what it is they'd like to

1144
00:55:08,920 --> 00:55:11,520
Speaker 5: hear and what they'd like to see the president say tonight.

1145
00:55:11,600 --> 00:55:15,000
Speaker 5: I think everybody understands most everyone's thoughts are still on

1146
00:55:15,040 --> 00:55:17,680
Speaker 5: the economy. That does seem to be with the president

1147
00:55:17,840 --> 00:55:18,920
Speaker 5: is focused on tonight.

1148
00:55:19,440 --> 00:55:20,600
Speaker 2: What can you say.

1149
00:55:21,080 --> 00:55:24,080
Speaker 5: As far as the RNC is looking out over the

1150
00:55:24,480 --> 00:55:27,080
Speaker 5: panoply of candidates all over the country. That's your job,

1151
00:55:27,560 --> 00:55:31,360
Speaker 5: sort of a national perspective on all these individual congressional races.

1152
00:55:31,480 --> 00:55:33,359
Speaker 5: Is the economy the thing? Right now?

1153
00:55:35,480 --> 00:55:38,280
Speaker 24: I think the economy is incredibly important. I was reading

1154
00:55:38,280 --> 00:55:40,759
Speaker 24: this morning that President Trump said that it was going

1155
00:55:40,800 --> 00:55:43,879
Speaker 24: to be quite a long speech, and that I did

1156
00:55:43,920 --> 00:55:46,799
Speaker 24: see some indications that, of course, the economy is going

1157
00:55:46,840 --> 00:55:49,319
Speaker 24: to be a central focus, given the fact that the

1158
00:55:49,320 --> 00:55:52,360
Speaker 24: President has a lot of accomplishments to speak to, and

1159
00:55:52,600 --> 00:55:55,800
Speaker 24: given the fact that voters really care about being able

1160
00:55:55,800 --> 00:55:59,040
Speaker 24: to afford basic necessities and being able to afford things

1161
00:55:59,080 --> 00:56:01,040
Speaker 24: like a home, wants to be able to live out

1162
00:56:01,080 --> 00:56:03,520
Speaker 24: the American dream, and so I think President this will

1163
00:56:03,520 --> 00:56:06,160
Speaker 24: be a central focus for President Trump. I also saw

1164
00:56:06,200 --> 00:56:09,640
Speaker 24: that he wants to talk about America at its two

1165
00:56:09,719 --> 00:56:14,000
Speaker 24: hundred and fiftieth anniversary as prosperous and respects it, and

1166
00:56:14,000 --> 00:56:16,480
Speaker 24: so I think those will be two central themes that

1167
00:56:16,480 --> 00:56:18,880
Speaker 24: he'll talk about tonight, along with a whole host of

1168
00:56:18,920 --> 00:56:21,880
Speaker 24: other things. We know, the foreign piece deals for example,

1169
00:56:22,200 --> 00:56:25,920
Speaker 24: for example, all he's done to bring down prescription drug prices,

1170
00:56:26,280 --> 00:56:28,239
Speaker 24: tax cuts. He has a lot to speak to, and

1171
00:56:28,280 --> 00:56:32,400
Speaker 24: so I think we'll see a exhaustive sort of list.

1172
00:56:32,280 --> 00:56:34,760
Speaker 6: And just in an.

1173
00:56:34,160 --> 00:56:37,040
Speaker 24: Explanation of all the things this administration has done and

1174
00:56:37,080 --> 00:56:38,160
Speaker 24: will continue to do.

1175
00:56:38,360 --> 00:56:40,239
Speaker 6: As we move forward into this midterm year.

1176
00:56:40,800 --> 00:56:45,000
Speaker 5: It's no secret the history is not on the Republican side,

1177
00:56:45,000 --> 00:56:47,240
Speaker 5: who are in total control of Congress right now. History

1178
00:56:47,280 --> 00:56:51,320
Speaker 5: just suggests loss in the midterms. But here's what's a

1179
00:56:51,360 --> 00:56:55,000
Speaker 5: little different this time. There is zero enthusiasm for Democrats.

1180
00:56:55,080 --> 00:56:58,440
Speaker 5: I mean zero. Every poll shows it. If there is

1181
00:56:58,480 --> 00:57:00,839
Speaker 5: a lack of enthusiasm for Republican it's not like, boy,

1182
00:57:00,880 --> 00:57:03,600
Speaker 5: are they excited to go vote Democrat. So does that

1183
00:57:03,760 --> 00:57:07,440
Speaker 5: mean Republicans still have a window of opportunity? That is

1184
00:57:07,480 --> 00:57:10,000
Speaker 5: assuming and maybe you don't as Press secretary of the RNC,

1185
00:57:10,760 --> 00:57:14,360
Speaker 5: assuming the Republicans are slated to lose just because history

1186
00:57:14,400 --> 00:57:18,280
Speaker 5: dictates it, Does that mean Republicans have an inside here

1187
00:57:18,360 --> 00:57:19,880
Speaker 5: that they didn't in the past.

1188
00:57:21,800 --> 00:57:23,000
Speaker 6: Well, I definitely think so.

1189
00:57:23,440 --> 00:57:27,160
Speaker 24: And the reason that I think Republicans are poised to

1190
00:57:27,320 --> 00:57:30,160
Speaker 24: defy history this time is because you look at the

1191
00:57:30,200 --> 00:57:31,760
Speaker 24: approval rating for Democrats.

1192
00:57:32,000 --> 00:57:35,160
Speaker 6: It is in the gutter. It is just completely so low.

1193
00:57:35,640 --> 00:57:40,040
Speaker 24: The American people do not trust Democrats to solve their problems.

1194
00:57:40,120 --> 00:57:42,640
Speaker 24: The American people are distrustful of Democrats, and that's for

1195
00:57:42,680 --> 00:57:43,200
Speaker 24: a reason.

1196
00:57:43,240 --> 00:57:44,720
Speaker 6: Look at what they're doing tonight.

1197
00:57:44,760 --> 00:57:47,840
Speaker 24: They're going to be boycotting the State of the Union address,

1198
00:57:48,040 --> 00:57:49,800
Speaker 24: They're going to be sitting it out to do their

1199
00:57:50,000 --> 00:57:52,200
Speaker 24: little side shows where they're going to be grand standing.

1200
00:57:52,240 --> 00:57:55,240
Speaker 24: But remember they have no solutions to offer. All they

1201
00:57:55,280 --> 00:58:00,600
Speaker 24: have is far left extremism, chaos, obstruction, And I think

1202
00:58:00,640 --> 00:58:04,200
Speaker 24: it's very unpatriotic to boycott the State of the Union address.

1203
00:58:04,440 --> 00:58:06,800
Speaker 24: You should be rooting for our country, even if you

1204
00:58:06,880 --> 00:58:09,600
Speaker 24: disagree with President Trump. You should be rooting for all

1205
00:58:09,640 --> 00:58:12,040
Speaker 24: of the accomplishments that he's doing for the American people.

1206
00:58:12,280 --> 00:58:14,400
Speaker 24: You should be on the side of the American people

1207
00:58:14,400 --> 00:58:16,480
Speaker 24: instead of rooting against them. And so I really do

1208
00:58:16,560 --> 00:58:19,720
Speaker 24: think it's the contrast between the America First Party and

1209
00:58:19,760 --> 00:58:21,480
Speaker 24: the Anti America Party.

1210
00:58:21,640 --> 00:58:25,120
Speaker 5: Kirsten, when you talk to members of Congress again, when

1211
00:58:25,120 --> 00:58:29,080
Speaker 5: you're talking about the RNC, that's big tent. Every member

1212
00:58:29,120 --> 00:58:30,560
Speaker 5: of the House has got to go run their own

1213
00:58:30,640 --> 00:58:34,280
Speaker 5: race in their respective districts. Are they messaging different things

1214
00:58:35,000 --> 00:58:38,520
Speaker 5: respective to their districts or is there a discussion about

1215
00:58:38,600 --> 00:58:43,560
Speaker 5: messaging broadly? Are you targeting certain districts. We hear the

1216
00:58:43,560 --> 00:58:46,520
Speaker 5: fundraising under President Trump has been huge. We know there's

1217
00:58:46,520 --> 00:58:49,680
Speaker 5: going to be a big convention, which is unusual and different.

1218
00:58:49,760 --> 00:58:51,400
Speaker 5: In fact, I think that news broke the last time

1219
00:58:51,440 --> 00:58:55,400
Speaker 5: you were with us. But strategy wise, how would you

1220
00:58:55,440 --> 00:58:58,120
Speaker 5: talk to Congressional Republicans in particular?

1221
00:59:00,000 --> 00:59:02,840
Speaker 24: Every race is different, and of course every candidate will

1222
00:59:02,960 --> 00:59:06,880
Speaker 24: know their district very well, their constituency very well, and

1223
00:59:06,960 --> 00:59:10,080
Speaker 24: so they will be tailoring, of course, their focus to

1224
00:59:10,320 --> 00:59:13,680
Speaker 24: make sure that those concerns of their constituencies are heard.

1225
00:59:13,720 --> 00:59:16,320
Speaker 24: I think when you look at a national message, what

1226
00:59:16,400 --> 00:59:20,400
Speaker 24: we look at is unification around the central ideas of

1227
00:59:20,440 --> 00:59:23,720
Speaker 24: the America First platform that was so successful in twenty

1228
00:59:23,760 --> 00:59:27,440
Speaker 24: twenty four, that brought this large coalition together across the

1229
00:59:27,480 --> 00:59:31,520
Speaker 24: country that you saw independent swinging towards President Trump, You

1230
00:59:31,560 --> 00:59:35,960
Speaker 24: saw younger voters swinging towards this message, this America First message.

1231
00:59:35,960 --> 00:59:37,960
Speaker 24: And so I think that when you look at a

1232
00:59:37,960 --> 00:59:40,560
Speaker 24: lot of the policies that this administration has been carrying out,

1233
00:59:40,680 --> 00:59:44,400
Speaker 24: the focuses of this administration putting the American worker first,

1234
00:59:44,400 --> 00:59:48,040
Speaker 24: putting the American family first, I think those broad themes

1235
00:59:48,080 --> 00:59:51,200
Speaker 24: will apply across the country as they did so successfully

1236
00:59:51,720 --> 00:59:53,160
Speaker 24: this last presidential election.

1237
00:59:53,720 --> 00:59:58,560
Speaker 5: Kirsten Pel's with us, the rnc's national press secretary. Again,

1238
00:59:58,600 --> 01:00:00,960
Speaker 5: I know you're not in in a place maybe to

1239
01:00:01,000 --> 01:00:03,400
Speaker 5: necessarily say this, but I would ask you anyway what

1240
01:00:03,440 --> 01:00:07,320
Speaker 5: would you want to see Congressional Republicans take action to

1241
01:00:07,360 --> 01:00:09,600
Speaker 5: do before the midterms that they could really sail. Is

1242
01:00:09,640 --> 01:00:13,120
Speaker 5: there a particular piece of legislation or action they could take.

1243
01:00:13,160 --> 01:00:15,280
Speaker 5: I've been asking callers today to the show about it.

1244
01:00:15,360 --> 01:00:17,760
Speaker 5: A lot of them have said, get the Save ac passed.

1245
01:00:18,000 --> 01:00:20,040
Speaker 5: I mean, if you could tell all of Congress, I

1246
01:00:20,040 --> 01:00:22,040
Speaker 5: know you probably wouldn't presume to do that, but you,

1247
01:00:22,120 --> 01:00:24,600
Speaker 5: as the press secretary for the RNC, if you could say, hey,

1248
01:00:24,680 --> 01:00:27,120
Speaker 5: here's one thing that would really help message to the

1249
01:00:27,160 --> 01:00:28,760
Speaker 5: focus this fall, what would it be?

1250
01:00:30,880 --> 01:00:34,040
Speaker 24: I think the Save America Act is actually a huge

1251
01:00:34,080 --> 01:00:37,640
Speaker 24: accomplishment that was passed by House Republicans and now we

1252
01:00:37,760 --> 01:00:39,760
Speaker 24: just need to see it pass in the Senate as well.

1253
01:00:40,040 --> 01:00:44,360
Speaker 24: And it essentially would put into law a very simple

1254
01:00:44,400 --> 01:00:47,760
Speaker 24: premise that the vast majority of American people agree with

1255
01:00:47,840 --> 01:00:50,360
Speaker 24: that you need voter ID in order to vote in

1256
01:00:50,400 --> 01:00:52,880
Speaker 24: American elections. And that is something that at the r

1257
01:00:52,920 --> 01:00:54,960
Speaker 24: and C we are very focused on. We were very

1258
01:00:55,000 --> 01:00:58,520
Speaker 24: focused on election integrity, at securing the vote and making

1259
01:00:58,560 --> 01:01:01,600
Speaker 24: sure that the ballots are cure, that you have to

1260
01:01:01,680 --> 01:01:04,200
Speaker 24: prove that you are a US citizen in order to vote,

1261
01:01:04,240 --> 01:01:06,680
Speaker 24: and again, when you pull Democrats on this issue, it's

1262
01:01:06,720 --> 01:01:09,480
Speaker 24: seventy six percent of Democrats, it's over eighty percent of

1263
01:01:09,520 --> 01:01:11,960
Speaker 24: the general public. And so I think when you look

1264
01:01:12,040 --> 01:01:14,800
Speaker 24: at these sort of eighty twenty issues, and this is

1265
01:01:14,840 --> 01:01:18,560
Speaker 24: one of them, Securing the border is another, tax cuts,

1266
01:01:18,920 --> 01:01:21,800
Speaker 24: more money in the pockets of American families, I think

1267
01:01:21,840 --> 01:01:24,800
Speaker 24: when Republicans take the side of the eighty twenty issues

1268
01:01:24,800 --> 01:01:27,880
Speaker 24: on the eighty side and the Democrats take the twenty

1269
01:01:27,920 --> 01:01:30,439
Speaker 24: percent side because they are beholden to a far left,

1270
01:01:30,520 --> 01:01:34,440
Speaker 24: radical base, that really strikes the heart of the message

1271
01:01:34,480 --> 01:01:38,840
Speaker 24: that this is a broad coalition united around putting America first,

1272
01:01:38,880 --> 01:01:42,280
Speaker 24: and the Democrats are unfortunately so far to the left

1273
01:01:42,320 --> 01:01:44,240
Speaker 24: that they are just out of touch with reality.

1274
01:01:44,600 --> 01:01:48,960
Speaker 5: Kristen, do you believe the President or Republicans broadly, this

1275
01:01:49,080 --> 01:01:52,280
Speaker 5: coalition of younger men that voted for them in last one?

1276
01:01:52,840 --> 01:01:53,760
Speaker 2: Do you believe the polls?

1277
01:01:53,800 --> 01:01:56,600
Speaker 5: I mean, look, the Washington Post, for instance, had this

1278
01:01:56,760 --> 01:02:00,600
Speaker 5: Logus poll of twenty five hundred adults know that sixty

1279
01:02:00,600 --> 01:02:03,520
Speaker 5: percent of the country now is upset with President Trump

1280
01:02:03,640 --> 01:02:06,280
Speaker 5: or whatever. You know. That's a silly poll, of course,

1281
01:02:06,400 --> 01:02:08,200
Speaker 5: but I mean I do see data that says the

1282
01:02:08,200 --> 01:02:10,320
Speaker 5: young men that voted for Republicans and President Trump are

1283
01:02:10,320 --> 01:02:11,400
Speaker 5: now a little disenchanted.

1284
01:02:12,080 --> 01:02:14,000
Speaker 2: Is there a change in messaging necessary here?

1285
01:02:14,040 --> 01:02:16,920
Speaker 5: We were talking about the focus of maybe the podcast

1286
01:02:17,040 --> 01:02:20,560
Speaker 5: scene that was heavily utilized in twenty twenty four now

1287
01:02:20,640 --> 01:02:23,480
Speaker 5: not so much by the president. Could we see a

1288
01:02:23,520 --> 01:02:25,960
Speaker 5: re engagement on that front, tackling some of the things

1289
01:02:25,960 --> 01:02:31,360
Speaker 5: that maybe you're more difficult or challenging or divisive for Republicans.

1290
01:02:31,400 --> 01:02:33,360
Speaker 5: I mean issues and you know them. I mean, I'm

1291
01:02:33,400 --> 01:02:35,040
Speaker 5: just bringing them out because you know they're out there.

1292
01:02:35,200 --> 01:02:37,560
Speaker 5: The Epstein stuff, the Israel stuff. I know it's not

1293
01:02:37,560 --> 01:02:39,600
Speaker 5: where the president wants to focus, but it is where

1294
01:02:39,600 --> 01:02:42,040
Speaker 5: a lot of these folks still seem to focus their time.

1295
01:02:42,120 --> 01:02:44,479
Speaker 5: So is it useful to engage there? Do you think

1296
01:02:44,520 --> 01:02:47,560
Speaker 5: for the President and Republicans? Well?

1297
01:02:47,600 --> 01:02:51,880
Speaker 24: I have read that President Trump and cabinet members of

1298
01:02:51,920 --> 01:02:55,880
Speaker 24: Republican candidates are being encouraged to go on to podcasts

1299
01:02:56,200 --> 01:02:59,200
Speaker 24: and to make sure that to not just go onto

1300
01:02:59,240 --> 01:03:01,959
Speaker 24: cable television, because let's be honest, a lot of young

1301
01:03:02,040 --> 01:03:06,360
Speaker 24: voters are tuning out of cable television and they're on

1302
01:03:06,960 --> 01:03:09,360
Speaker 24: different forms of media, and so I think that was

1303
01:03:09,400 --> 01:03:12,760
Speaker 24: a very important strategy in twenty twenty four that President

1304
01:03:12,800 --> 01:03:16,240
Speaker 24: Trump utilized, and at the RNC, we actually launched a

1305
01:03:16,280 --> 01:03:22,520
Speaker 24: TikTok account recently last month to really engage with younger voters,

1306
01:03:22,560 --> 01:03:25,480
Speaker 24: and we are going toe to toe with Democrats on

1307
01:03:25,520 --> 01:03:28,720
Speaker 24: the app, and we are making sure to push America

1308
01:03:28,800 --> 01:03:31,600
Speaker 24: First content to highlight all the accomplishments, but also to

1309
01:03:31,680 --> 01:03:34,560
Speaker 24: highlight all of the crazy things that Democrats are doing,

1310
01:03:34,760 --> 01:03:37,000
Speaker 24: how delusional they are, how out of touch with reality

1311
01:03:37,040 --> 01:03:39,120
Speaker 24: that they are. And so I think the reason that young,

1312
01:03:39,320 --> 01:03:42,720
Speaker 24: younger people, younger voters swung towards the President in twenty

1313
01:03:42,720 --> 01:03:45,280
Speaker 24: twenty four is they really saw that contrast. And so

1314
01:03:45,320 --> 01:03:47,000
Speaker 24: I think that speaks right to the heart of the

1315
01:03:47,040 --> 01:03:49,280
Speaker 24: strategy here, and I think that's what we're going to

1316
01:03:49,280 --> 01:03:50,240
Speaker 24: be doing going forward.

1317
01:03:50,440 --> 01:03:53,080
Speaker 5: February is almost over, still months ago. I mean, it's

1318
01:03:53,080 --> 01:03:56,520
Speaker 5: an eternity in politics. Is the conventional wisdom still that

1319
01:03:56,560 --> 01:03:59,000
Speaker 5: we could see in economy really pop here in the

1320
01:03:59,000 --> 01:04:02,120
Speaker 5: next month or two tax season and that might just

1321
01:04:02,240 --> 01:04:05,320
Speaker 5: change the vibe generally, whether it be a vibe shift.

1322
01:04:05,400 --> 01:04:08,120
Speaker 5: Is the RNC kind of counting on a vibe shift?

1323
01:04:10,560 --> 01:04:13,000
Speaker 24: Well, I definitely think so, And I know that I've

1324
01:04:13,040 --> 01:04:16,600
Speaker 24: heard President Trump say the same Scott Bessett and others

1325
01:04:16,600 --> 01:04:18,840
Speaker 24: talking about how this economy is going to be coming

1326
01:04:18,880 --> 01:04:21,400
Speaker 24: in hot. We look at the recent jobs reports, this

1327
01:04:21,440 --> 01:04:24,640
Speaker 24: administration is really defying expectations on all of the economic

1328
01:04:24,720 --> 01:04:26,840
Speaker 24: markers that you would typically look at to measure the

1329
01:04:26,840 --> 01:04:29,680
Speaker 24: health of an economy. You could see interest rates coming

1330
01:04:29,680 --> 01:04:32,120
Speaker 24: down further, supercharging the economy again.

1331
01:04:32,200 --> 01:04:33,479
Speaker 6: Those tax refunds are.

1332
01:04:33,400 --> 01:04:37,320
Speaker 24: Going to hit people's wallets very soon, and so I

1333
01:04:37,360 --> 01:04:40,440
Speaker 24: think an inflation is coming down, and it's going to

1334
01:04:40,480 --> 01:04:41,440
Speaker 24: come down even further.

1335
01:04:41,600 --> 01:04:42,840
Speaker 6: So I think we will.

1336
01:04:43,520 --> 01:04:45,280
Speaker 5: Kirsten, thanks a lot for your time today. I know

1337
01:04:45,320 --> 01:04:47,880
Speaker 5: it's a big task as the Press secretary of the RNC.

1338
01:04:47,920 --> 01:04:50,120
Speaker 5: Will stay in touch. Thank you very much. And speaking

1339
01:04:50,160 --> 01:04:53,520
Speaker 5: of important races all over the country, we're following one

1340
01:04:53,560 --> 01:04:58,240
Speaker 5: in Wyoming as Harriet Hegeman is headed off perhaps to

1341
01:04:58,280 --> 01:05:02,280
Speaker 5: the Senate. Pretty likely we'll cover who's coming in behind

1342
01:05:02,320 --> 01:05:05,720
Speaker 5: her soon. Here we are in the Relief Factor studios

1343
01:05:05,760 --> 01:05:08,800
Speaker 5: this morning. I wouldn't mind being in Miami this morning

1344
01:05:08,840 --> 01:05:14,080
Speaker 5: looking live there on AM six seventy WWFE. Thanks for

1345
01:05:14,120 --> 01:05:16,400
Speaker 5: listening Miami, Thanks for watching on the Salem News Channel.

1346
01:05:16,400 --> 01:05:17,960
Speaker 5: If you do a beautiful live shot of the sun

1347
01:05:18,000 --> 01:05:20,160
Speaker 5: coming up in Miami this morning, sort of the inlet

1348
01:05:20,200 --> 01:05:23,400
Speaker 5: there our telephone number eighty five fives to Gaul. I'm

1349
01:05:23,440 --> 01:05:26,280
Speaker 5: in DC windy today, but not a lot of snow

1350
01:05:26,280 --> 01:05:29,520
Speaker 5: on the ground. That was mostly to the north where

1351
01:05:29,520 --> 01:05:30,600
Speaker 5: I know a lot of people are still with that

1352
01:05:30,720 --> 01:05:33,560
Speaker 5: power and really got socked with that big snow. State

1353
01:05:33,560 --> 01:05:35,960
Speaker 5: of the Union tonight, taking your calls on this, what

1354
01:05:36,000 --> 01:05:38,160
Speaker 5: you want to hear from the President, what you feel

1355
01:05:38,440 --> 01:05:41,160
Speaker 5: Congress can do, if there's anything they can do at

1356
01:05:41,160 --> 01:05:43,520
Speaker 5: this point to get you energized and enthused about the

1357
01:05:43,560 --> 01:05:46,000
Speaker 5: Republican base. The well's been poisoned by the media, There's

1358
01:05:46,000 --> 01:05:51,680
Speaker 5: no doubt about it. They always do. They're always trying

1359
01:05:51,720 --> 01:05:53,840
Speaker 5: to convey to people that things are rotten and getting

1360
01:05:53,880 --> 01:05:56,960
Speaker 5: worse when Republicans are in charge. That's not new. That's

1361
01:05:57,120 --> 01:05:59,760
Speaker 5: in time memorium that's been going on. Is it working

1362
01:06:00,360 --> 01:06:03,040
Speaker 5: or they're more alternative sources of information? And by the way,

1363
01:06:03,160 --> 01:06:07,400
Speaker 5: the answers, yes, there are. So what are they talking about? Well,

1364
01:06:07,440 --> 01:06:10,400
Speaker 5: it's interesting like Epstein, for instance, I bring up Epstein

1365
01:06:10,520 --> 01:06:13,120
Speaker 5: or I bring up you know, Israel. This is something

1366
01:06:13,120 --> 01:06:15,760
Speaker 5: that a lot of the podcasts set spends a lot

1367
01:06:15,760 --> 01:06:19,880
Speaker 5: of time talking about and so I wondered to myself,

1368
01:06:20,040 --> 01:06:22,280
Speaker 5: is that something that a lot of people cover and

1369
01:06:22,320 --> 01:06:24,800
Speaker 5: think about and talk about? And so I asked harrumfers

1370
01:06:24,840 --> 01:06:29,400
Speaker 5: because herumfers are a subset of this audience, and I

1371
01:06:29,480 --> 01:06:32,840
Speaker 5: know they're smart and thoughtful people on scientific poll but

1372
01:06:32,880 --> 01:06:35,480
Speaker 5: I asked last week on Friday at the Herrum Society

1373
01:06:35,520 --> 01:06:38,120
Speaker 5: of Harrumfers on the Epstein files, are you satisfied with

1374
01:06:38,160 --> 01:06:40,480
Speaker 5: what's out? Or is there still too much redact that

1375
01:06:40,520 --> 01:06:44,240
Speaker 5: are incomplete? And the choices were I'm satisfied Trump has

1376
01:06:44,280 --> 01:06:47,000
Speaker 5: been fully transparent. Not really, there are too many redactions,

1377
01:06:47,080 --> 01:06:50,680
Speaker 5: not at all, There's far more, or I don't really

1378
01:06:50,720 --> 01:06:54,440
Speaker 5: follow this and I'm tired of it. Those were my choices.

1379
01:06:54,440 --> 01:06:56,040
Speaker 5: I don't really follow this and I'm tired of it.

1380
01:06:56,400 --> 01:07:00,920
Speaker 5: Now ed on Epstein Harrumfers, where do you think they

1381
01:07:00,960 --> 01:07:04,280
Speaker 5: came down on this? I'm satisfied Trump's been transparent. No,

1382
01:07:04,320 --> 01:07:07,160
Speaker 5: I'm not satisfied. Too many redactions, I'm not at all satisfied.

1383
01:07:07,200 --> 01:07:09,360
Speaker 5: There's far more to learn, or I don't really follow

1384
01:07:09,400 --> 01:07:12,080
Speaker 5: this and I'm tired of it. Can you guess where

1385
01:07:12,080 --> 01:07:13,880
Speaker 5: a rumpers came down on that. I'm going to say

1386
01:07:13,880 --> 01:07:16,240
Speaker 5: the majority said I'm tired of it. I don't follow this.

1387
01:07:16,360 --> 01:07:19,360
Speaker 5: Fifty percent said I don't follow it and I'm sick

1388
01:07:19,400 --> 01:07:23,400
Speaker 5: to death of it. Half of them did wow. The

1389
01:07:23,480 --> 01:07:26,960
Speaker 5: other half were evenly split between I'm satisfied or I'm

1390
01:07:27,000 --> 01:07:29,640
Speaker 5: not at all satisfied. So about a quarter of respondents

1391
01:07:29,640 --> 01:07:33,600
Speaker 5: said there's some form of not satisfied. Three quarters said

1392
01:07:33,680 --> 01:07:36,480
Speaker 5: I'm fully satisfied or I'm not paying attention to it

1393
01:07:36,520 --> 01:07:37,360
Speaker 5: at all, i don't care.

1394
01:07:39,160 --> 01:07:41,040
Speaker 2: So people's concerns.

1395
01:07:40,560 --> 01:07:43,560
Speaker 5: Are kind of all over the map on the Republican

1396
01:07:43,920 --> 01:07:47,240
Speaker 5: conservative Trump voting side. We heard a great call from

1397
01:07:47,240 --> 01:07:50,000
Speaker 5: Michigan earlier a dad who said, I'm fifty five. I

1398
01:07:50,040 --> 01:07:51,960
Speaker 5: want to hear them talk about the Save Act. I

1399
01:07:52,000 --> 01:07:54,840
Speaker 5: want Congress to pass that sucker. His twenty five year

1400
01:07:54,840 --> 01:07:58,320
Speaker 5: old son said he wants prosecutions, and he wants them now.

1401
01:07:59,240 --> 01:08:01,760
Speaker 5: Scott's and in the Anna waiting patiently. Scott, good morning,

1402
01:08:01,760 --> 01:08:04,560
Speaker 5: welcome in picking people's brains on what could enthuse them

1403
01:08:04,560 --> 01:08:07,520
Speaker 5: about this Republican bunch in Congress or maybe the president tonight.

1404
01:08:07,600 --> 01:08:12,360
Speaker 16: Good morning, Hey Chris, good morning, I'm actually a candidate

1405
01:08:12,400 --> 01:08:15,840
Speaker 16: in fifth District, Indiana for Congress. So I'm trying to

1406
01:08:15,880 --> 01:08:19,880
Speaker 16: stay abreast of all this these issues, and.

1407
01:08:20,520 --> 01:08:25,160
Speaker 5: What would you say is the paramount issue.

1408
01:08:26,000 --> 01:08:29,519
Speaker 16: I'm pretty sure that we need ilhan Omar to maybe

1409
01:08:29,560 --> 01:08:34,639
Speaker 16: be censured and then you know, deported, maybe even rest.

1410
01:08:34,960 --> 01:08:37,559
Speaker 5: Yeah, well, Scott, Look, Scott, I appreciate it. That's part

1411
01:08:37,560 --> 01:08:39,680
Speaker 5: of the punished. I want to see punishment. I want

1412
01:08:39,680 --> 01:08:43,040
Speaker 5: to see prosecutions. I hear that a lot, Scott, and

1413
01:08:43,040 --> 01:08:45,600
Speaker 5: I appreciate it. Let's go to San Pedro, California and

1414
01:08:45,600 --> 01:08:48,439
Speaker 5: talk to Penny next. Hey, Penny, good morning, welcome in.

1415
01:08:48,479 --> 01:08:49,240
Speaker 5: What do you say about it?

1416
01:08:49,360 --> 01:08:50,479
Speaker 1: How are you hi?

1417
01:08:51,200 --> 01:08:52,040
Speaker 5: I would you know?

1418
01:08:52,840 --> 01:08:54,639
Speaker 1: I didn't give you a chance to answer that you're

1419
01:08:54,720 --> 01:08:55,240
Speaker 1: doing good.

1420
01:08:56,160 --> 01:08:58,200
Speaker 5: I'm doing great. Thank you so much. What would you

1421
01:08:58,280 --> 01:08:59,679
Speaker 5: like to hear coming out of this bunch?

1422
01:08:59,720 --> 01:09:06,479
Speaker 1: And not just see Congress nuke the philibuster because it's

1423
01:09:06,520 --> 01:09:09,920
Speaker 1: a traditional watch that you.

1424
01:09:09,880 --> 01:09:12,719
Speaker 5: Know, all right, Penny wants to see the filibuster nuked.

1425
01:09:12,880 --> 01:09:17,599
Speaker 5: Duly noted, Penny, I appreciate you. Rick is next in Placita, Florida. Rick,

1426
01:09:17,680 --> 01:09:18,760
Speaker 5: what do you want to hear? What do you want

1427
01:09:18,760 --> 01:09:20,040
Speaker 5: to see? Chris?

1428
01:09:20,360 --> 01:09:24,160
Speaker 23: My big complaint is the Congress. We got both gold

1429
01:09:24,240 --> 01:09:27,840
Speaker 23: chambers right now. Trump's got a great many executive orders

1430
01:09:27,880 --> 01:09:30,799
Speaker 23: that need to be codified, and since they got the majority,

1431
01:09:30,840 --> 01:09:33,799
Speaker 23: they better get it done because if they lose ones

1432
01:09:34,280 --> 01:09:38,240
Speaker 23: one half of the Congress there, nothing's going to get codified.

1433
01:09:38,280 --> 01:09:41,519
Speaker 23: And if they lose the presidency down the road, all

1434
01:09:41,560 --> 01:09:44,080
Speaker 23: those executive orders are probably going to get trash, just

1435
01:09:44,120 --> 01:09:45,320
Speaker 23: like Biden's got trash.

1436
01:09:45,600 --> 01:09:47,759
Speaker 5: Do you agree with Penny Nuke the filibuster, then.

1437
01:09:48,360 --> 01:09:50,720
Speaker 23: No, not at all. The ones they know they can

1438
01:09:50,760 --> 01:09:54,800
Speaker 23: get through with the fifty one percent voters through, get

1439
01:09:54,840 --> 01:09:57,519
Speaker 23: those done, Get those done now. The other ones, yeah,

1440
01:09:57,560 --> 01:10:00,160
Speaker 23: you can argue about those as you go along. They

1441
01:10:00,160 --> 01:10:02,479
Speaker 23: got to get it done there. But clock is ticking,

1442
01:10:02,920 --> 01:10:06,519
Speaker 23: and you know, you know that's the bottom line. And

1443
01:10:07,320 --> 01:10:09,519
Speaker 23: talking about the gentleman up in Michigan, I'm a little

1444
01:10:09,520 --> 01:10:12,720
Speaker 23: bit with that guy. Is I want to see prosecutions.

1445
01:10:13,080 --> 01:10:15,880
Speaker 23: It's a snake pit there in Washington. They got us

1446
01:10:15,920 --> 01:10:18,640
Speaker 23: there getting some prosecutions through. I don't care if they

1447
01:10:18,640 --> 01:10:20,040
Speaker 23: got to bring him in for Jay and walk.

1448
01:10:20,560 --> 01:10:23,200
Speaker 5: Will you be watching every minute of the President's speech tonight.

1449
01:10:23,040 --> 01:10:26,479
Speaker 23: Rick, I will watch it majority of it. I'll probably

1450
01:10:26,520 --> 01:10:28,200
Speaker 23: get a chance to take a look at it. I'm

1451
01:10:28,680 --> 01:10:31,160
Speaker 23: somebody on a podcast and some sort tomorrow.

1452
01:10:31,320 --> 01:10:33,280
Speaker 5: All right, Well, I hope it's this one. We'll have

1453
01:10:33,320 --> 01:10:35,400
Speaker 5: it fully covered tomorrow. Rick, thank you so much for

1454
01:10:35,439 --> 01:10:37,760
Speaker 5: the call. It's been my pleasure and honor to talk

1455
01:10:37,800 --> 01:10:40,479
Speaker 5: about Bob Spinato at Williamsburg Dential in Brummelt just off

1456
01:10:40,560 --> 01:10:42,519
Speaker 5: the blue root as my dentist and friend of over

1457
01:10:42,640 --> 01:10:45,840
Speaker 5: twelve years. But now he has two brand new associates,

1458
01:10:46,040 --> 01:10:49,160
Speaker 5: his daughter Alexa and doctor Gettis. Tell him about him, Bob.

1459
01:10:49,000 --> 01:10:52,240
Speaker 17: Yeah, Chris, I can't begin to express how proud I am.

1460
01:10:52,280 --> 01:10:56,000
Speaker 17: Obviously I've had my daughter there. Also, Doctor Gettis is

1461
01:10:56,080 --> 01:10:58,680
Speaker 17: just a wonderful addition to our practice. He is a

1462
01:10:58,680 --> 01:11:02,280
Speaker 17: classmate of my daughter, so the Temple Dental School and

1463
01:11:02,320 --> 01:11:05,120
Speaker 17: I have known Jared for about seven years now. Getting

1464
01:11:05,120 --> 01:11:07,080
Speaker 17: to know Jared over the years, it was my wife

1465
01:11:07,080 --> 01:11:09,720
Speaker 17: Debbie and my daughter Emily. He kept telling me, you

1466
01:11:09,800 --> 01:11:12,439
Speaker 17: have to hire Jared, you have to hire Jared. He's

1467
01:11:12,479 --> 01:11:15,719
Speaker 17: going to be a superstar. Jared went off to USC

1468
01:11:15,920 --> 01:11:18,479
Speaker 17: that a one year residency after his year at Temple,

1469
01:11:18,560 --> 01:11:19,960
Speaker 17: and he came back and he worked for about a

1470
01:11:20,000 --> 01:11:23,040
Speaker 17: year and practice in New Jersey, and after again my

1471
01:11:23,120 --> 01:11:25,720
Speaker 17: wife and daughter beating my brains in, I kept the

1472
01:11:25,760 --> 01:11:28,160
Speaker 17: message and I hired Jared and it's 's been a

1473
01:11:28,160 --> 01:11:29,519

Speaker 12: Could the fate of the world of humanity itself be

1480
01:11:45,800 --> 01:11:47,679
Speaker 12: somehow tied to this place?

1481
01:11:48,000 --> 01:11:50,599
Speaker 25: But long last we have peace in the Middle East.

1487
01:12:06,520 --> 01:12:10,200
Speaker 5: Sony folks, Hey, welcome in on this Tuesday edition. Stay

1488
01:12:10,200 --> 01:12:12,599
Speaker 5: at the Union Tuesday edition at the Stackall Show. We're

1489
01:12:12,600 --> 01:12:16,320
Speaker 5: in DC today. You're looking live actually not far from

1490
01:12:16,320 --> 01:12:20,280
Speaker 5: where I'm sitting, beautiful looking sunrise, the Lincoln Memorial and

1491
01:12:20,320 --> 01:12:24,360
Speaker 5: the foreground there, the Potomac in front of it, Arlington

1492
01:12:24,600 --> 01:12:27,000
Speaker 5: just behind the Lincoln Memorial there, That's where I'm sitting

1493
01:12:27,040 --> 01:12:29,720
Speaker 5: actually tell no one though, I won't go further than

1494
01:12:29,800 --> 01:12:34,840
Speaker 5: that super secret bunker. I'm underground here. We keep it

1495
01:12:34,840 --> 01:12:37,879
Speaker 5: that way for security reasons. And then off to Capitol

1496
01:12:37,920 --> 01:12:40,720
Speaker 5: Hill a little later today, I'm going to be talking

1497
01:12:40,760 --> 01:12:43,360
Speaker 5: to Republican members of the House. They've invited us there

1498
01:12:43,800 --> 01:12:46,240
Speaker 5: to do a little pregame State of the Union talk.

1499
01:12:46,439 --> 01:12:49,360
Speaker 5: We'll be asking them a lot of questions that I've

1500
01:12:49,479 --> 01:12:52,840
Speaker 5: been hearing from you today specific to their agenda. What

1501
01:12:52,920 --> 01:12:56,559
Speaker 5: you want to see out of this Republican bunch ahead

1502
01:12:56,560 --> 01:13:00,360
Speaker 5: of the midterms. Again, the well has been poisoned. The

1503
01:13:00,360 --> 01:13:03,360
Speaker 5: gloom and doomers, the sad Sachari, the oh, the poll

1504
01:13:03,439 --> 01:13:05,639
Speaker 5: all the pub you know, they they've they've gone out

1505
01:13:05,640 --> 01:13:07,600
Speaker 5: to the street, the Washington Post and they found all

1506
01:13:07,600 --> 01:13:10,639
Speaker 5: the gloom and doom types who've said, you know, sixty

1507
01:13:10,680 --> 01:13:13,559
Speaker 5: percent are unhappy with the president's performance or whatever. Again,

1508
01:13:13,600 --> 01:13:16,360
Speaker 5: that's of adults, that's not of registered voters. Actually, his

1509
01:13:16,439 --> 01:13:19,400
Speaker 5: approval numbers of registered voters have not really changed at all.

1510
01:13:19,760 --> 01:13:22,240
Speaker 5: People that voted for the guy. It's not as though

1511
01:13:22,240 --> 01:13:24,080
Speaker 5: they changed their vote, and it's certainly not as though

1512
01:13:24,080 --> 01:13:28,000
Speaker 5: Democrats are doing any better or that they're a viable alternative.

1513
01:13:28,120 --> 01:13:31,280
Speaker 5: So the question really before us is, as you're running

1514
01:13:31,320 --> 01:13:35,080
Speaker 5: for the United States House and Senate as a Republican,

1515
01:13:35,120 --> 01:13:37,439
Speaker 5: what can you do to inspire and enthuse voters to

1516
01:13:37,479 --> 01:13:39,280
Speaker 5: turn out for you, Because one thing we do know,

1517
01:13:39,800 --> 01:13:43,599
Speaker 5: the Democrat base is wildly fired up. I mean, they

1518
01:13:43,600 --> 01:13:46,000
Speaker 5: can't wait. They're champing at the bit to go vote.

1519
01:13:46,120 --> 01:13:47,840
Speaker 5: And so I've been wondering to myself ahead of the

1520
01:13:47,840 --> 01:13:50,640
Speaker 5: State of the Union, the President and Republicans have to

1521
01:13:50,680 --> 01:13:53,920
Speaker 5: get you to a place where you feel like you

1522
01:13:53,960 --> 01:13:55,920
Speaker 5: want to go vote for them and not just sit

1523
01:13:56,000 --> 01:13:58,320
Speaker 5: it out. Because the Democrats are not sitting it out, folks,

1524
01:13:58,400 --> 01:14:01,720
Speaker 5: you know that. To talk about it. David Gerralt is

1525
01:14:01,760 --> 01:14:04,760
Speaker 5: a candidate for Congress as a matter of fact, in Wyoming.

1526
01:14:04,840 --> 01:14:09,599
Speaker 5: He is running to replace Harriet Hegeman, who is currently

1527
01:14:09,680 --> 01:14:12,800
Speaker 5: in the seat that we know was formerly held by

1528
01:14:12,840 --> 01:14:16,559
Speaker 5: Liz Cheney famously for a time. Miss Hegeman is now

1529
01:14:16,640 --> 01:14:19,120
Speaker 5: running for the Senate in Wyoming. So, mister Gerralt, it's

1530
01:14:19,120 --> 01:14:21,160
Speaker 5: a pleasure to make your acquaintance. Good morning, welcome in.

1531
01:14:22,880 --> 01:14:24,280
Speaker 26: Chris, and morning, thanks for having me.

1532
01:14:24,320 --> 01:14:27,360
Speaker 5: I appreciate it, no our pleasure to talk with you

1533
01:14:27,439 --> 01:14:29,559
Speaker 5: because This is something that's been on my mind as

1534
01:14:29,560 --> 01:14:32,320
Speaker 5: someone who sits where you sit right now and watches

1535
01:14:32,360 --> 01:14:37,080
Speaker 5: the political discourse, watches the American public and their mood

1536
01:14:37,800 --> 01:14:41,519
Speaker 5: and opinions, whether it's economy or whether it's.

1537
01:14:42,840 --> 01:14:46,160
Speaker 2: International affairs, whether it's it's and I get a lot

1538
01:14:46,160 --> 01:14:46,320
Speaker 2: of this.

1539
01:14:46,439 --> 01:14:51,080
Speaker 5: You've probably heard this too, people being punished for their misdeeds.

1540
01:14:51,120 --> 01:14:52,479
Speaker 5: A lot of people are saying they don't feel like

1541
01:14:52,479 --> 01:14:54,960
Speaker 5: they're seeing that aggressively enough. There's a lot, a lot

1542
01:14:54,960 --> 01:14:57,040
Speaker 5: of pots boiling, and I'm just curious, as a candidate,

1543
01:14:57,080 --> 01:14:59,520
Speaker 5: what are you zero in on there with your constituents

1544
01:14:59,560 --> 01:15:00,200
Speaker 5: in Wyoming.

1545
01:15:01,960 --> 01:15:03,880
Speaker 26: Yeah, you know a couple things, And as I talked

1546
01:15:03,920 --> 01:15:07,240
Speaker 26: to voters really across the state of Wyoming, we're primarily

1547
01:15:07,240 --> 01:15:11,519
Speaker 26: focused on jobs, focused on security, and focused on ensuring

1548
01:15:11,640 --> 01:15:13,320
Speaker 26: and maybe this gets to a lot of the state

1549
01:15:13,360 --> 01:15:15,760
Speaker 26: of the Union and maybe what we can expect to

1550
01:15:15,760 --> 01:15:18,360
Speaker 26: hear some of, but codifying a lot of these executive

1551
01:15:18,439 --> 01:15:22,360
Speaker 26: orders into permanent law, whether you're a business owner, whether

1552
01:15:22,400 --> 01:15:24,679
Speaker 26: you're a citizen just trying to make a living and

1553
01:15:24,800 --> 01:15:27,960
Speaker 26: you're looking for a lot of stability for your family,

1554
01:15:28,240 --> 01:15:33,080
Speaker 26: and what provides that stability is kind of providing Congress

1555
01:15:33,080 --> 01:15:37,360
Speaker 26: as a role and providing that stability from administration to administration. Now,

1556
01:15:37,640 --> 01:15:41,360
Speaker 26: Trump has done a lot of good work through executive order.

1557
01:15:41,880 --> 01:15:45,519
Speaker 26: I hear that frequently from voters across the state. Wyoming

1558
01:15:45,600 --> 01:15:48,240
Speaker 26: is probably as a district, but as a state in particular,

1559
01:15:48,680 --> 01:15:51,760
Speaker 26: one of the most Trump friendly places that you can be.

1560
01:15:52,200 --> 01:15:54,280
Speaker 26: They love it, but they just say, I want to

1561
01:15:54,280 --> 01:15:56,439
Speaker 26: see this permanent. I don't want to go back to

1562
01:15:56,439 --> 01:15:59,200
Speaker 26: where we were just two short years ago.

1563
01:16:00,479 --> 01:16:02,960
Speaker 2: I mentioned Liz Cheney. There's a funny story today.

1564
01:16:04,200 --> 01:16:08,519
Speaker 5: Not funny, haha, actually maybe more funny sad. The headline

1565
01:16:08,520 --> 01:16:13,439
Speaker 5: from ABC mister Gerald is never Trump. Republicans are still

1566
01:16:13,439 --> 01:16:17,559
Speaker 5: issuing dire warnings. Is anyone listening? Over and over?

1567
01:16:17,600 --> 01:16:17,960
Speaker 2: They write?

1568
01:16:17,960 --> 01:16:20,920
Speaker 5: The Republicans and former Republicans who gathered just outside Washington

1569
01:16:20,920 --> 01:16:23,120
Speaker 5: this past weekend warned Donald Trump and his allies in

1570
01:16:23,160 --> 01:16:26,200
Speaker 5: Congress that they're tearing at the very fabric of American democracy.

1571
01:16:26,200 --> 01:16:30,240
Speaker 5: But listen to this. Here's the punchline. The main convention

1572
01:16:30,400 --> 01:16:34,160
Speaker 5: hall at the sixth Annual Principal's First Summit this past

1573
01:16:34,160 --> 01:16:38,200
Speaker 5: weekend was half empty. About seven hundred and fifty chairs

1574
01:16:38,200 --> 01:16:41,000
Speaker 5: were set up in the room that could have fit thousands,

1575
01:16:41,400 --> 01:16:44,839
Speaker 5: and many were unfilled. Not a single current Republican elected

1576
01:16:44,840 --> 01:16:48,320
Speaker 5: official participated in the two day program. What does that

1577
01:16:48,360 --> 01:16:51,719
Speaker 5: tell us, particularly about the aforementioned Liz Cheney who occupied

1578
01:16:51,720 --> 01:16:53,080
Speaker 5: the seat for which you're running.

1579
01:16:55,520 --> 01:16:58,400
Speaker 26: I think that what happened was a lot of people

1580
01:16:58,400 --> 01:17:01,120
Speaker 26: who became very frustrated in this sort of apathies set

1581
01:17:01,120 --> 01:17:04,519
Speaker 26: in where people are kind of uninterested because of the

1582
01:17:05,600 --> 01:17:10,000
Speaker 26: I think the combative nature of everything, and people what

1583
01:17:10,160 --> 01:17:13,120
Speaker 26: they're seeing with their own eyes is not matching up

1584
01:17:13,160 --> 01:17:16,800
Speaker 26: with their pocketbooks, it's not matching up with their live reality.

1585
01:17:17,400 --> 01:17:19,559
Speaker 26: To kind of steal that term a little bit, but

1586
01:17:20,479 --> 01:17:23,519
Speaker 26: I think Americans have an incredible amount of confidence and

1587
01:17:23,560 --> 01:17:28,000
Speaker 26: what the president is doing, and they should. Everything that

1588
01:17:27,800 --> 01:17:30,559
Speaker 26: the President is doing right now is working to benefit

1589
01:17:30,880 --> 01:17:34,120
Speaker 26: working families in particular here in Wyoming. One thing that

1590
01:17:34,160 --> 01:17:39,040
Speaker 26: we're focused on is the energy sector. Wyoming stands at

1591
01:17:39,040 --> 01:17:42,400
Speaker 26: the forefront of this this energy competition, this energy expansion,

1592
01:17:42,800 --> 01:17:46,360
Speaker 26: and as we look at competitors across the globe, our

1593
01:17:46,439 --> 01:17:50,559
Speaker 26: own security here Wyoming has a vital role to play

1594
01:17:50,560 --> 01:17:54,679
Speaker 26: in that. So, you know, for Wyoming and what's important

1595
01:17:54,680 --> 01:17:57,519
Speaker 26: to us here, it's those sorts of things.

1596
01:17:58,000 --> 01:18:02,000
Speaker 5: Yeah, but that never Trump contends. Was that ever real

1597
01:18:02,000 --> 01:18:05,720
Speaker 5: in a place like Wyoming. I mean, clearly not. The

1598
01:18:05,800 --> 01:18:08,880
Speaker 5: data does not suggest that. Again, and I don't mean

1599
01:18:08,920 --> 01:18:11,679
Speaker 5: to keep pounding on this, but I mean it's She's

1600
01:18:11,760 --> 01:18:15,639
Speaker 5: probably the most famous face of the never Trump resistance movement,

1601
01:18:15,640 --> 01:18:19,280
Speaker 5: and to ABC News's point, nobody's interested in hearing from it.

1602
01:18:19,400 --> 01:18:21,680
Speaker 5: So if there is, I guess my point is, if

1603
01:18:21,680 --> 01:18:25,880
Speaker 5: there's discontent or whatever, or anger or displeasure with Donald Trump,

1604
01:18:26,400 --> 01:18:29,080
Speaker 5: it's not being shown in ballrooms where these never trumpers

1605
01:18:29,080 --> 01:18:30,160
Speaker 5: are gathering, is my point.

1606
01:18:32,320 --> 01:18:34,960
Speaker 26: I think that's right. You know, I don't remember something

1607
01:18:34,960 --> 01:18:37,479
Speaker 26: into too many ballrooms here in the state of Wyoming.

1608
01:18:38,360 --> 01:18:40,960
Speaker 26: You know, I think it's I think it's this sort

1609
01:18:41,000 --> 01:18:46,000
Speaker 26: of you know, coastal elitist opinion that is kind of

1610
01:18:46,040 --> 01:18:50,559
Speaker 26: telegraphed into the state of Wyoming. And I think, you know,

1611
01:18:51,000 --> 01:18:53,519
Speaker 26: one of the reasons to kind of go back to

1612
01:18:53,160 --> 01:18:57,040
Speaker 26: the Liz Cheney Harriet Hageman race in twenty two, there

1613
01:18:57,040 --> 01:18:59,639
Speaker 26: were people in DC who were kind of parachuting into

1614
01:18:59,680 --> 01:19:02,200
Speaker 26: the state in reporting that Liz Cheney's really got a

1615
01:19:02,280 --> 01:19:05,080
Speaker 26: chance here. If you had any friends, if you had

1616
01:19:05,080 --> 01:19:08,719
Speaker 26: any association, any association with the state of Wyoming at all,

1617
01:19:09,160 --> 01:19:11,560
Speaker 26: you would know that that was a complete and utter fabrication.

1618
01:19:12,120 --> 01:19:16,040
Speaker 5: I think that, well, like the Des Moines Register poll

1619
01:19:16,120 --> 01:19:18,879
Speaker 5: that said Kamala Harris was going to win Iowa, for example,

1620
01:19:19,000 --> 01:19:21,960
Speaker 5: that wasn't even close. That was ridiculously inaccurate.

1621
01:19:22,880 --> 01:19:27,519
Speaker 26: Yeah, just just just a razor thin race there. You know,

1622
01:19:27,720 --> 01:19:28,439
Speaker 26: it's it's.

1623
01:19:29,040 --> 01:19:31,320
Speaker 2: Well, that's what I means. How much of this is propaganda?

1624
01:19:31,479 --> 01:19:34,040
Speaker 2: This has been my point. They do this all the time.

1625
01:19:34,080 --> 01:19:37,120
Speaker 5: They convinced the American public, well, you know, we're gonna

1626
01:19:37,120 --> 01:19:39,439
Speaker 5: lose Texas, we're gonna lose Iowa, we're gonna lose Wyoming,

1627
01:19:39,479 --> 01:19:42,360
Speaker 5: and everybody's depressed and defeated. Sixty percent don't like Trump.

1628
01:19:42,400 --> 01:19:45,160
Speaker 5: It doesn't seem to bear out. Doesn't stop them from

1629
01:19:45,160 --> 01:19:46,200
Speaker 5: trying to report it though.

1630
01:19:48,280 --> 01:19:51,000
Speaker 26: Yeah, you know, maybe maybe a final comment on that.

1631
01:19:51,160 --> 01:19:54,360
Speaker 26: I think that there are so many people who I think,

1632
01:19:54,400 --> 01:19:57,400
Speaker 26: and this is no critique of polling, but maybe they're

1633
01:19:57,400 --> 01:20:00,559
Speaker 26: a little too online because I hear this too, where

1634
01:20:01,000 --> 01:20:03,439
Speaker 26: you know, going from from county to county, people say,

1635
01:20:03,760 --> 01:20:07,760
Speaker 26: you know, these guys are absolutely terrible, they're mean, or

1636
01:20:07,920 --> 01:20:11,679
Speaker 26: these guys are rhinos over here, and when you kind

1637
01:20:11,720 --> 01:20:13,800
Speaker 26: of go to a coffee shop, you do a little

1638
01:20:13,840 --> 01:20:15,960
Speaker 26: meet and greet and you just find out these are

1639
01:20:16,000 --> 01:20:18,960
Speaker 26: just these are conservative Republicans who at the end of

1640
01:20:18,960 --> 01:20:20,559
Speaker 26: the day, what they care about is their family.

1641
01:20:20,920 --> 01:20:22,640
Speaker 6: They care about having a good job.

1642
01:20:23,120 --> 01:20:26,320
Speaker 26: Being safe and secure, and ensuring that there's stability for

1643
01:20:26,439 --> 01:20:27,679
Speaker 26: them and the next generation.

1644
01:20:28,080 --> 01:20:29,439
Speaker 27: That's it.

1645
01:20:28,640 --> 01:20:30,320
Speaker 26: It's all pretty simple.

1646
01:20:30,560 --> 01:20:34,040
Speaker 5: Mister Gerrault, you were also an Army ranger eighty second Airborne.

1647
01:20:34,040 --> 01:20:37,679
Speaker 5: Thanks for your service. There. Question on foreign policy, when

1648
01:20:37,720 --> 01:20:40,040
Speaker 5: we talk about staring down the baril of perhaps conflict

1649
01:20:40,040 --> 01:20:43,360
Speaker 5: with Iran that may come up tonight. Some are speculating

1650
01:20:43,400 --> 01:20:45,679
Speaker 5: that could happen any day now, a launch on Iran.

1651
01:20:45,720 --> 01:20:46,559
Speaker 5: Where do you stand on that?

1652
01:20:48,680 --> 01:20:51,080
Speaker 26: I think that I think that Donald Trump has been

1653
01:20:51,439 --> 01:20:54,640
Speaker 26: the best foreign policy president that we've seen, certainly in

1654
01:20:54,640 --> 01:20:58,080
Speaker 26: my lifetime, and that's someone who's deployed to combat twice.

1655
01:20:58,160 --> 01:21:01,960
Speaker 26: Under his leadership. I have full faith and confidence that

1656
01:21:02,040 --> 01:21:04,519
Speaker 26: the President, whatever actions he's going to take, are going

1657
01:21:04,520 --> 01:21:07,400
Speaker 26: to be targeted, they're going to be limited, and it'll

1658
01:21:07,439 --> 01:21:10,760
Speaker 26: be in the best interest of the United States. He

1659
01:21:10,920 --> 01:21:14,439
Speaker 26: is fantastic in avoiding these forever wars. You know, people,

1660
01:21:14,560 --> 01:21:17,280
Speaker 26: people kind of forget that he came in under this

1661
01:21:17,400 --> 01:21:22,000
Speaker 26: mantra of avoiding forever wars and getting out of these

1662
01:21:22,120 --> 01:21:23,680
Speaker 26: endless entanglements.

1663
01:21:24,320 --> 01:21:25,800
Speaker 2: I don't know what the president is going to do.

1664
01:21:25,960 --> 01:21:28,599
Speaker 26: That is one of his absolute strengths on the foreign

1665
01:21:28,640 --> 01:21:32,040
Speaker 26: policy front. But I have an incredible amount of confidence

1666
01:21:32,360 --> 01:21:33,880
Speaker 26: in him, and I think the rest of the American

1667
01:21:33,880 --> 01:21:34,599
Speaker 26: people should too.

1668
01:21:35,479 --> 01:21:38,200
Speaker 5: How can people be helpful to you, mister Gerralt there

1669
01:21:38,240 --> 01:21:41,920
Speaker 5: in Wyoming. You're running for the Harriet Hageman seat she

1670
01:21:42,000 --> 01:21:44,799
Speaker 5: currently occupies. How can people be helpful with your campaign?

1671
01:21:46,560 --> 01:21:49,000
Speaker 26: The biggest thing is just getting the word out. You

1672
01:21:49,040 --> 01:21:52,280
Speaker 26: could go to David Gerralt dot com. That's David G.

1673
01:21:52,400 --> 01:21:55,560
Speaker 26: I R A l t dot com. My wife and

1674
01:21:55,600 --> 01:22:00,080
Speaker 26: I will be traveling around the state and any any donation,

1675
01:22:00,280 --> 01:22:03,080
Speaker 26: any support, all of it helps. So that's that's the

1676
01:22:03,080 --> 01:22:03,519
Speaker 26: best way.

1677
01:22:03,560 --> 01:22:05,880
Speaker 5: Where's the best trout fishing in Wyoming? By the way,

1678
01:22:05,880 --> 01:22:08,519
Speaker 5: I'm just curious. I've never been, but I'm dying to go.

1679
01:22:08,680 --> 01:22:11,000
Speaker 5: Do you recommend a spot to go stop when I visit?

1680
01:22:11,880 --> 01:22:12,559
Speaker 16: Well, I can't.

1681
01:22:12,600 --> 01:22:14,519
Speaker 26: I can't tell you exactly, otherwise I'd get in a

1682
01:22:14,560 --> 01:22:15,080
Speaker 26: lot of trouble.

1683
01:22:15,080 --> 01:22:16,639
Speaker 23: But you know that.

1684
01:22:18,320 --> 01:22:20,840
Speaker 26: The Wyoming's gold rhym trout fishing everywhere. So here my

1685
01:22:21,240 --> 01:22:24,320

Speaker 5: your pulse as the President gives the State of the

1728

Speaker 5: Union and we're here in Washington, DC, going to visit

Speaker 5: with members of Congress today, what would you like me

1730
01:24:22,200 --> 01:24:25,040
Speaker 5: to relay? What are you eager to hear? What do

1731
01:24:25,040 --> 01:24:29,160
Speaker 5: you want to see Congress do ahead of this State

1732
01:24:29,160 --> 01:24:30,559
Speaker 5: of the Union of the rest of this year to

1733
01:24:30,600 --> 01:24:34,519
Speaker 5: get you enthused about them potentially maintaining control of Congress.

1734
01:24:35,320 --> 01:24:38,320
Speaker 5: Trust No One on X says, prosecute the seditious former

1735
01:24:38,320 --> 01:24:41,639
Speaker 5: administration and move all cases out of DC for fair

1736
01:24:41,760 --> 01:24:47,120
Speaker 5: jury pools. Prosecute Obama Holder and others for arming the cartel.

1737
01:24:49,000 --> 01:24:54,240
Speaker 5: Barb says, stress that if they don't vote for Republican

1738
01:24:54,439 --> 01:24:57,280
Speaker 5: representatives every election until the end of Trump's term, he

1739
01:24:57,320 --> 01:25:00,000
Speaker 5: will be impeached again. Barb said, that's what they should stretch,

1740
01:25:00,120 --> 01:25:05,920
Speaker 5: that impeachment is coming if Republicans don't keep control. Let's

1741
01:25:05,960 --> 01:25:09,719
Speaker 5: see Tamara says, you know what would get people's attention

1742
01:25:09,840 --> 01:25:12,240
Speaker 5: and get them out the vote. No taxes on pensions

1743
01:25:12,400 --> 01:25:20,200
Speaker 5: of first responders or teachers. Good one and interesting. The

1744
01:25:20,280 --> 01:25:23,080
Speaker 5: economy and people talking about housing, people talking about credit.

1745
01:25:23,120 --> 01:25:25,240
Speaker 5: We had a call from Eerie Earlier, she said she

1746
01:25:25,280 --> 01:25:27,799
Speaker 5: wants to hear the president cap interest on credit cards

1747
01:25:28,439 --> 01:25:30,760
Speaker 5: ten percent. I have the stick All plan, you know,

1748
01:25:30,880 --> 01:25:35,240
Speaker 5: which is pretty easy. It's pretty basic. Private sector wealthy

1749
01:25:35,280 --> 01:25:41,280
Speaker 5: individuals getting tax breaks if they fund lending to first

1750
01:25:41,280 --> 01:25:44,200
Speaker 5: time home buyers who could also roll their student loan

1751
01:25:44,320 --> 01:25:49,559
Speaker 5: balances into a home lending situation. I think it's one

1752
01:25:49,560 --> 01:25:53,240
Speaker 5: of the easiest, simplest ways to turn people of means

1753
01:25:53,880 --> 01:25:56,720
Speaker 5: into the white hat instead of the black hat. And

1754
01:25:56,760 --> 01:25:59,400
Speaker 5: at the same time give people who are younger strapped

1755
01:25:59,400 --> 01:26:02,599
Speaker 5: with student loan debt and can't get into the housing market,

1756
01:26:02,600 --> 01:26:05,320
Speaker 5: give them an opportunity to get a qualified loan and

1757
01:26:05,479 --> 01:26:09,000
Speaker 5: pay an affordable rate for both a home and their

1758
01:26:09,000 --> 01:26:10,920
Speaker 5: student loan debt. Roll it all into one and let

1759
01:26:10,960 --> 01:26:14,800
Speaker 5: it be financed privately by private sector wealthy folks. Give

1760
01:26:14,800 --> 01:26:17,439
Speaker 5: them a tax advantage to do so. That's the stick

1761
01:26:17,439 --> 01:26:19,760
Speaker 5: All plan in a nutshell. I think that solves a

1762
01:26:19,760 --> 01:26:22,719
Speaker 5: lot of problems personally. Kelly in Maine, Hey, Kelly, good morning,

1763
01:26:22,720 --> 01:26:24,080
Speaker 5: what's on your mind? Thanks for waiting.

1764
01:26:24,120 --> 01:26:27,320
Speaker 11: Hi, Hi, can you do me a favor?

1765
01:26:27,400 --> 01:26:30,160
Speaker 28: I need some tissues and violins because I'm mega in

1766
01:26:30,200 --> 01:26:30,880
Speaker 28: a blue state.

1767
01:26:32,600 --> 01:26:34,760
Speaker 2: I feel you, sister, what do you want to hear tonight?

1768
01:26:35,000 --> 01:26:35,920
Speaker 9: You really don't.

1769
01:26:37,040 --> 01:26:38,880
Speaker 28: It's super frustrating.

1770
01:26:39,040 --> 01:26:40,320
Speaker 16: You just can't believe it.

1771
01:26:41,360 --> 01:26:44,400
Speaker 28: So, yeah, we have extremely high prices, and I want

1772
01:26:44,439 --> 01:26:47,120
Speaker 28: to say that, but that's not number one. We have

1773
01:26:47,240 --> 01:26:51,600
Speaker 28: a massive Somali problem that's linked to Minnesota. And we

1774
01:26:51,720 --> 01:26:56,160
Speaker 28: have a Chinese broad which is linked to the marijuana

1775
01:26:56,200 --> 01:27:00,000
Speaker 28: grow houses. Yes, and there's a few huge problems.

1776
01:27:00,280 --> 01:27:03,000
Speaker 5: All right, Kelly, listen, here's the thing I bet tonight

1777
01:27:03,120 --> 01:27:05,160
Speaker 5: and we're going to watch for this. Does President Trump

1778
01:27:05,160 --> 01:27:07,679
Speaker 5: talk about the fraudies cracking down on I bet he does.

1779
01:27:07,960 --> 01:27:10,680
Speaker 5: Hope he brings up Maine. I'll certainly mention it if

1780
01:27:10,680 --> 01:27:13,360
Speaker 5: I get the chance. Thanks, Kelly, to be with you.

1781
01:27:13,840 --> 01:27:19,080
Speaker 5: We're in Washington today. We're looking at Chicago AM five sixty.

1782
01:27:19,720 --> 01:27:23,160

01:27:30,360 --> 01:27:32,000
Speaker 5: in advance of the State of the Union tonight.

1787
01:27:32,520 --> 01:27:34,160
Speaker 2: Of course, tonight is the State of the Union.

1788
01:27:34,320 --> 01:27:36,160
Speaker 5: Keep it here on the Salem News Channel and the

1792
01:27:43,920 --> 01:27:46,840
Speaker 5: thing bit of a programming. No, Tomorrow, Mark Davis will

1793
01:27:46,880 --> 01:27:48,320
Speaker 5: be here. And you say, stick all you were gone

1794
01:27:48,360 --> 01:27:50,599
Speaker 5: last week. What do you mean you're gone again? Because

1795
01:27:50,640 --> 01:27:54,080
Speaker 5: I'm on double C Grit super assignment Tomorrow. I will

1796
01:27:54,120 --> 01:27:56,839
Speaker 5: be calling in to Mark to tell you where I'm going.

1797
01:27:57,160 --> 01:27:59,640
Speaker 5: Because we haven't entirely ironed out the details yet. But

1798
01:28:00,800 --> 01:28:04,040
Speaker 5: here's the hint. I'm in DC and I'm not going anywhere,

1799
01:28:04,320 --> 01:28:07,200
Speaker 5: and so I'll be here but not physically on the

1800
01:28:07,200 --> 01:28:13,160
Speaker 5: show Wednesday. But I will be back with you on

1801

01:28:16,000 --> 01:28:19,080
Speaker 5: as to where we will be. But we're gonna have

1803
01:28:19,120 --> 01:28:21,439
Speaker 5: some great conversations for you over the next couple of days.

1804
01:28:21,479 --> 01:28:23,800
Speaker 5: That much I can tell you from Washington, the belly

1805
01:28:23,840 --> 01:28:25,760
Speaker 5: of the Beast, so you don't want to leave us.

1806
01:28:26,479 --> 01:28:30,160
Speaker 5: So the aforementioned State of the Union, President Trump, they say,

1807
01:28:30,360 --> 01:28:33,560
Speaker 5: is going to tout a strong and getting stronger economy.

1808
01:28:33,640 --> 01:28:36,160
Speaker 5: I wondered to myself, because we visit every Tuesday with

1809
01:28:36,200 --> 01:28:40,000
Speaker 5: Steve Moore, our chief economist over there at the community

1810
01:28:40,280 --> 01:28:43,400
Speaker 5: to a committee to unleashed prosperity. I wondered, Steve, if

1811
01:28:43,400 --> 01:28:46,240
Speaker 5: you had President Trump's ear and we're helping craft this

1812
01:28:46,320 --> 01:28:49,679
Speaker 5: speech tonight, what would you have him say? Good morning?

1813
01:28:50,280 --> 01:28:51,519
Speaker 29: Haha, good morning, Chris Well.

1814
01:28:51,520 --> 01:28:54,519
Speaker 4: I did get together with the President last week and

1815
01:28:54,560 --> 01:28:56,200
Speaker 4: we did talk. And by the way, I bet that's

1816
01:28:56,200 --> 01:28:58,920
Speaker 4: where you're headed is the Oval Office. I wouldn't be surprised.

1817
01:29:00,280 --> 01:29:03,920
Speaker 4: We spent about forty five minutes together and I told them, look,

1818
01:29:03,960 --> 01:29:06,240
Speaker 4: you've got to hell of a story to tell, mister President.

1819
01:29:06,320 --> 01:29:07,519
Speaker 29: You've got, you.

1820
01:29:07,439 --> 01:29:12,559
Speaker 4: Know, rising incomes, declining inflation. The big tax cut is

1821
01:29:12,560 --> 01:29:15,400
Speaker 4: putting more money people into wallets, so the American people.

1822
01:29:15,479 --> 01:29:18,839
Speaker 4: Gas prices are down. The stock market hit fifty thousand.

1823
01:29:19,160 --> 01:29:20,960
Speaker 4: Now it has fallen a little bit in the last

1824
01:29:20,960 --> 01:29:24,200
Speaker 4: few days, but it's still at our near record highs.

1825
01:29:24,520 --> 01:29:28,040
Speaker 4: People's four one K plans have seen nice increases. So

1826
01:29:28,400 --> 01:29:33,040
Speaker 4: it's a great story to tell. And it contrasts so

1827
01:29:33,120 --> 01:29:36,880
Speaker 4: much with the Biden years, which were just deplorable for families,

1828
01:29:36,880 --> 01:29:38,760
Speaker 4: you know, in terms of the loss of income and

1829
01:29:38,800 --> 01:29:41,599
Speaker 4: the Remember we had nine percent inflation, so I think

1830
01:29:41,640 --> 01:29:43,720
Speaker 4: this president is going to do exactly what you just.

1831
01:29:43,680 --> 01:29:44,240
Speaker 29: Said, Chris.

1832
01:29:44,240 --> 01:29:47,840
Speaker 4: I think he's going to really tout his economic achievements

1833
01:29:47,920 --> 01:29:51,360
Speaker 4: as he should, and he's going to have his game

1834
01:29:51,400 --> 01:29:52,120
Speaker 4: base on today.

1835
01:29:52,840 --> 01:29:53,679
Speaker 29: It's going to be very peaid.

1836
01:29:53,680 --> 01:29:56,080
Speaker 4: By the way, it's going to be a very patriotic speech.

1837
01:29:56,160 --> 01:30:00,360
Speaker 4: I mean, I'm still I'm just still just all a

1838
01:30:00,400 --> 01:30:02,920
Speaker 4: glow about the big win on so Sunday, and I

1839
01:30:02,960 --> 01:30:06,080
Speaker 4: know the whole country is. And last night my family

1840
01:30:06,120 --> 01:30:10,519
Speaker 4: and I sat, we sat and watched that movie about

1841
01:30:10,520 --> 01:30:13,439
Speaker 4: the Yeah.

1842
01:30:13,560 --> 01:30:14,320
Speaker 29: Yeah, exactly.

1843
01:30:14,400 --> 01:30:16,040
Speaker 4: So it just it just makes you proud to be

1844
01:30:16,120 --> 01:30:19,040
Speaker 4: an American. And Trump, I think will really celebrate what

1845
01:30:19,880 --> 01:30:20,960
Speaker 4: America that is back.

1846
01:30:21,280 --> 01:30:22,920
Speaker 29: We're back, folks, Yes.

1847
01:30:22,840 --> 01:30:23,200
Speaker 2: Steve O.

1848
01:30:23,920 --> 01:30:26,519
Speaker 5: The thing is, you know, perception is reality. I don't

1849
01:30:26,520 --> 01:30:29,400
Speaker 5: know really anymore. It's it's funny. A friend of mine said,

1850
01:30:29,400 --> 01:30:31,639
Speaker 5: I'm so glad you're doing the show you're doing today, Stigall,

1851
01:30:31,760 --> 01:30:35,559
Speaker 5: because I don't I don't really know too much about

1852
01:30:35,560 --> 01:30:40,880
Speaker 5: what real people who aren't politically active and online, just

1853
01:30:41,000 --> 01:30:42,920
Speaker 5: folks that listen to the show. I mean, I've been

1854
01:30:42,920 --> 01:30:45,559
Speaker 5: opening the phones today asking people what do you want

1855
01:30:45,600 --> 01:30:47,120
Speaker 5: to hear? What do you want to hear the president say,

1856
01:30:47,120 --> 01:30:49,719
Speaker 5: what do you want Congress to do a good number

1857
01:30:49,760 --> 01:30:51,280
Speaker 5: of them say the same act, but a number of

1858
01:30:51,320 --> 01:30:53,960
Speaker 5: them have said things like cap interest on credit cards,

1859
01:30:54,080 --> 01:30:56,799
Speaker 5: or make housing more affordable, or stop these big companies

1860
01:30:56,800 --> 01:31:00,439
Speaker 5: from buying up a bunch of homes. So the reception

1861
01:31:00,640 --> 01:31:03,719
Speaker 5: is that people are upset with President Trump, who voted

1862
01:31:03,720 --> 01:31:05,720
Speaker 5: for him, but they maybe still feel squeezed.

1863
01:31:06,320 --> 01:31:08,800
Speaker 2: Is that fair to say? And what does the president do?

1864
01:31:08,920 --> 01:31:12,160
Speaker 5: How does he acknowledge that without sounding like things are

1865
01:31:12,479 --> 01:31:14,599
Speaker 5: grim because you just described a lot of good stuff.

1866
01:31:15,360 --> 01:31:17,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, well, first of all, he does have to talk

1867
01:31:17,200 --> 01:31:19,200
Speaker 4: the good news because that just doesn't get out there.

1868
01:31:19,200 --> 01:31:21,400
Speaker 4: And the media, you know, the media is all filled

1869
01:31:21,439 --> 01:31:25,439
Speaker 4: with doom and gloom at a time when people, not everyone,

1870
01:31:25,520 --> 01:31:28,599
Speaker 4: but most middle income families are doing better. We estimate

1871
01:31:28,640 --> 01:31:30,920
Speaker 4: that one of the charts I gave President Trump was

1872
01:31:30,960 --> 01:31:33,439
Speaker 4: that I'm going to send it to you, Chris, that

1873
01:31:33,840 --> 01:31:37,400
Speaker 4: if you look at median family income people in the

1874
01:31:37,439 --> 01:31:40,040
Speaker 4: middle in Trump's first year in office, it was up

1875
01:31:40,080 --> 01:31:43,719
Speaker 4: twenty four hundred dollars last year. That's a that's after inflation.

1876
01:31:43,800 --> 01:31:46,160
Speaker 4: That's a pretty nice gain. And then you add to

1877
01:31:46,200 --> 01:31:49,600
Speaker 4: that the sixteen hundred dollars people are saving on their taxes.

1878
01:31:50,560 --> 01:31:52,360
Speaker 4: You know, you're talking about a three or four thousand

1879
01:31:52,400 --> 01:31:53,600
Speaker 4: dollars increase.

1880
01:31:53,720 --> 01:31:55,640
Speaker 29: In their affordability.

1881
01:31:55,720 --> 01:31:58,559
Speaker 4: They're ability to buy things.

1882
01:31:58,600 --> 01:31:58,800
Speaker 11: Now.

1883
01:31:59,000 --> 01:32:02,080
Speaker 4: I understand people are angry about groceries. I think people

1884
01:32:02,120 --> 01:32:04,320
Speaker 4: are angry about you know, what is a cost to

1885
01:32:04,320 --> 01:32:07,240
Speaker 4: buy a Hamburger mistake. These days, people are angry about

1886
01:32:07,560 --> 01:32:11,479
Speaker 4: housing costs which are very high, and healthcare because the

1887
01:32:11,520 --> 01:32:14,960
Speaker 4: Affordable Care Act was anything but affordable. But Trump is

1888
01:32:14,960 --> 01:32:17,439
Speaker 4: on the job and he's going to bring those prices down,

1889
01:32:17,600 --> 01:32:19,720
Speaker 4: or at least not at least he's going to bring

1890
01:32:19,760 --> 01:32:22,680
Speaker 4: the inflation rate substantially down, as he already has.

1891
01:32:23,240 --> 01:32:24,920
Speaker 2: Remember Steve started to interrupt.

1892
01:32:25,000 --> 01:32:27,880
Speaker 5: Is the key though, for him to say, over here

1893
01:32:27,960 --> 01:32:30,200
Speaker 5: is this basket of really good stuff that you just

1894
01:32:30,280 --> 01:32:32,839
Speaker 5: ticked off. But over here's this basket that I understand

1895
01:32:32,920 --> 01:32:35,200
Speaker 5: is really pinching you. And I hear you, and I

1896
01:32:35,240 --> 01:32:37,479
Speaker 5: get it. That's what he's got to do, right that balance.

1897
01:32:38,000 --> 01:32:38,240
Speaker 16: Yeah.

1898
01:32:38,320 --> 01:32:41,320
Speaker 4: You know, I hate to quote Bill Clinton, but remember

1899
01:32:41,320 --> 01:32:44,080
Speaker 4: what Bill Clinton said so famously, I feel your pain.

1900
01:32:44,640 --> 01:32:46,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, and that was a good line.

1901
01:32:46,040 --> 01:32:48,120
Speaker 4: I have to say, you know, so I think maybe

1902
01:32:48,160 --> 01:32:49,240
Speaker 4: a little bit of I feel your pain.

1903
01:32:49,280 --> 01:32:51,880
Speaker 29: I understand a lot of your struggling. We're on the job.

1904
01:32:52,240 --> 01:32:54,760
Speaker 4: You know, the Democrats have not helped they every day.

1905
01:32:54,760 --> 01:32:56,439
Speaker 4: I mean, one of the things he should say is

1906
01:32:56,640 --> 01:33:00,519
Speaker 4: maybe shake his finger at those Democrats and if they

1907
01:33:00,560 --> 01:33:03,720
Speaker 4: show up, Christs are going to show up.

1908
01:33:03,880 --> 01:33:05,960
Speaker 29: But if they do, we should say, you know, what's

1909
01:33:06,000 --> 01:33:06,799
Speaker 29: with you people?

1910
01:33:07,040 --> 01:33:10,800
Speaker 4: Every one of you voted against a tax cut, which

1911
01:33:10,840 --> 01:33:13,000
Speaker 4: is about two thousand dollars per family.

1912
01:33:13,080 --> 01:33:13,639
Speaker 29: What gives?

1913
01:33:13,680 --> 01:33:14,400
Speaker 2: Why would you?

1914
01:33:14,400 --> 01:33:14,600
Speaker 5: You know?

1915
01:33:14,640 --> 01:33:17,120
Speaker 4: Were you against the middle class because that was a

1916
01:33:17,120 --> 01:33:18,320
Speaker 4: middle class tax cut.

1917
01:33:18,400 --> 01:33:21,040
Speaker 5: Chris Steven do you think I've introduced you to the

1918
01:33:21,080 --> 01:33:24,599
Speaker 5: stagaul plan before? Maybe I'm naive. I don't understand finance

1919
01:33:24,640 --> 01:33:27,040
Speaker 5: the way you do. But I've often thought if wealthy

1920
01:33:27,080 --> 01:33:31,080
Speaker 5: people could finance, subsidize, and benefit through the tax code,

1921
01:33:31,120 --> 01:33:35,960
Speaker 5: subsidize lending. If wealthy individuals could subsidize lending, you could

1922
01:33:35,960 --> 01:33:38,880
Speaker 5: take this student loan default problem that is apparently on

1923
01:33:38,920 --> 01:33:42,000
Speaker 5: the rise. That's another story today student loan defaults are

1924
01:33:42,160 --> 01:33:44,599
Speaker 5: increasing and younger people are not able to get into

1925
01:33:44,640 --> 01:33:49,320
Speaker 5: that first home. Could we engage private sector wealth to

1926
01:33:49,479 --> 01:33:53,160
Speaker 5: lend to those folks and maybe even roll student dead

1927
01:33:53,200 --> 01:33:55,559
Speaker 5: into it. You know what I'm saying, maybe they create

1928
01:33:55,680 --> 01:33:58,679
Speaker 5: a lending situation where somebody could get that first home

1929
01:33:58,720 --> 01:34:00,479
Speaker 5: and roll some student lending in and do it, come

1930
01:34:00,520 --> 01:34:03,599
Speaker 5: up with an affordable payment plan, subsidize it with wealthy

1931
01:34:03,640 --> 01:34:06,800
Speaker 5: folks through the tax code. It's a thought, It's just

1932
01:34:06,840 --> 01:34:08,759
Speaker 5: a wild thought. But is there a way to turn

1933
01:34:09,200 --> 01:34:12,240
Speaker 5: private capital into the hero of those struggling.

1934
01:34:12,320 --> 01:34:14,920
Speaker 4: Well, what I would say on the student loan issue

1935
01:34:14,960 --> 01:34:17,519
Speaker 4: is when you talk about wealth, what about the wealth

1936
01:34:17,560 --> 01:34:19,920
Speaker 4: of these universities. I mean, my god, they're sitting out

1937
01:34:20,000 --> 01:34:24,200
Speaker 4: one trillion dollars of endowments, one trillion. It's near criminal

1938
01:34:24,560 --> 01:34:29,680
Speaker 4: that these flabby, you know, incredibly rich universities around the

1939
01:34:29,680 --> 01:34:33,080
Speaker 4: country are sitting on these piles of cash while they're

1940
01:34:33,240 --> 01:34:37,839
Speaker 4: we're charging families two hundred thousand dollars over four years

1941
01:34:37,880 --> 01:34:40,559
Speaker 4: for tuition. I mean, it is really outrageous. So I

1942
01:34:40,960 --> 01:34:43,320
Speaker 4: would favor let's go after that. By the way, that

1943
01:34:43,360 --> 01:34:46,519
Speaker 4: money was never taxed. I'm a low tax guy, you know, Chris,

1944
01:34:46,560 --> 01:34:49,000
Speaker 4: But I do believe everybody should pay their fair share.

1945
01:34:49,200 --> 01:34:51,719
Speaker 4: The universities don't. So why don't we put a special

1946
01:34:51,840 --> 01:34:55,679
Speaker 4: tax on the universities and use that money to reduce

1947
01:34:55,800 --> 01:34:56,639
Speaker 4: the student debt.

1948
01:34:56,640 --> 01:34:57,519
Speaker 29: And what do you think about that?

1949
01:34:57,720 --> 01:34:59,519
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, look all for that.

1950
01:34:59,600 --> 01:35:02,439
Speaker 5: I if the universities, if they want to look a

1951
01:35:02,479 --> 01:35:04,599
Speaker 5: little better, they should come to the rescue. The students

1952
01:35:04,600 --> 01:35:05,439
Speaker 5: are in Bill King.

1953
01:35:05,840 --> 01:35:06,920
Speaker 29: They've been ripping off families.

1954
01:35:07,000 --> 01:35:10,280
Speaker 5: That's right. JP Morgan Chase Bank recently admitting it closed

1955
01:35:10,280 --> 01:35:14,400
Speaker 5: President Trump's bank accounts following the J six event. The

1956
01:35:14,479 --> 01:35:17,559
Speaker 5: suit brought against the bank and as CEO accused the

1957
01:35:17,560 --> 01:35:20,519
Speaker 5: financial institution of d banking Trump for political reasons. Is

1958
01:35:20,520 --> 01:35:22,439
Speaker 5: there a case there is this an issue? Could it

1959
01:35:22,479 --> 01:35:25,559
Speaker 5: be an issue in the future dbanking people for political reasons?

1960
01:35:25,680 --> 01:35:26,080
Speaker 5: Steve O.

1961
01:35:26,360 --> 01:35:29,160
Speaker 4: Well, this was during the woke period of the Biden years,

1962
01:35:29,360 --> 01:35:32,880
Speaker 4: and there was so much almost criminal activity that went on.

1963
01:35:33,000 --> 01:35:37,880
Speaker 4: I just trying to trying to bankrupt and injure anyone

1964
01:35:37,920 --> 01:35:42,719
Speaker 4: who dared support Donald Trump, and including Donald Trump himself.

1965
01:35:43,160 --> 01:35:46,519
Speaker 4: And so this did go on the banks. Jamie Diamond,

1966
01:35:46,560 --> 01:35:49,320
Speaker 4: I have to congratulate him for admitting that they did this.

1967
01:35:49,760 --> 01:35:52,920
Speaker 4: He wasn't the only one, Chris, Almost all the major

1968
01:35:53,000 --> 01:35:56,000
Speaker 4: banks did this. It was during the woke period and

1969
01:35:56,080 --> 01:36:01,200
Speaker 4: Trump has thankfully ended that. And now we're how deep

1970
01:36:01,320 --> 01:36:05,080
Speaker 4: that went that people who look they put people in

1971
01:36:05,200 --> 01:36:06,960
Speaker 4: jail for.

1972
01:36:07,080 --> 01:36:08,040
Speaker 29: Supporting Donald Trump.

1973
01:36:08,120 --> 01:36:09,880
Speaker 4: I'm trying to get somebody a pardon for a guy

1974
01:36:10,080 --> 01:36:13,240
Speaker 4: literally his crime was putting Trump signs in front of

1975
01:36:13,280 --> 01:36:13,639
Speaker 4: his house.

1976
01:36:13,680 --> 01:36:15,439
Speaker 29: I'm not I'm not exaggerating here.

1977
01:36:15,560 --> 01:36:20,599
Speaker 4: That's how how deep the anti Trump derangement syndrome was

1978
01:36:20,640 --> 01:36:26,400
Speaker 4: in those periods. And they need to congratulate. Jamie Diamond said, Okay,

1979
01:36:26,439 --> 01:36:28,840
Speaker 4: we did it, you know, admit it. We did it,

1980
01:36:28,920 --> 01:36:30,640
Speaker 4: and we're going to stop doing that. Well, and what

1981
01:36:30,720 --> 01:36:32,559
Speaker 4: are all the other companies that did it? Why aren't

1982
01:36:32,560 --> 01:36:33,280
Speaker 4: they coming for Well?

1983
01:36:33,320 --> 01:36:35,640
Speaker 5: Listen, Susan Rice, who sits on the board of Netflix,

1984
01:36:35,720 --> 01:36:38,040
Speaker 5: as you probably have heard, came out and said she's

1985
01:36:38,080 --> 01:36:38,639
Speaker 5: doing it again.

1986
01:36:38,800 --> 01:36:40,599
Speaker 2: I mean she she wants.

1987
01:36:40,360 --> 01:36:43,720
Speaker 5: To rain hell down on anybody who is Trump affiliated,

1988
01:36:43,720 --> 01:36:48,280
Speaker 5: Trump adjacent, and she's pledging to do it again Netflix.

1989
01:36:48,320 --> 01:36:50,439
Speaker 5: By the way, the story today from PJ Media. Netflix

2028
01:38:29,000 --> 01:38:33,920
Speaker 27: divide people. You can't win that way. Look who we have,

2029
01:38:34,240 --> 01:38:35,200
Speaker 27: Look who we have there.

2030
01:38:35,200 --> 01:38:40,360
Speaker 30: It's almost like a destiny to have this thing there destroying,

2031
01:38:40,800 --> 01:38:46,360
Speaker 30: attempting to destroy this country and maybe not even understanding why.

2032
01:38:47,000 --> 01:38:50,040
Speaker 30: So it's up to us to protect the country that

2033

2039
01:39:08,200 --> 01:39:08,759
Speaker 2: And he's.

2040
01:39:11,479 --> 01:39:13,880

2044
01:39:24,600 --> 01:39:26,080

Speaker 10: They're humanitarians, Chris, They only care about everybody else, the

2046
01:39:31,080 --> 01:39:33,840
Speaker 10: you know, the or legal immigrants, that they have such

2047
01:39:33,840 --> 01:39:36,960
Speaker 10: a big heart for everyone except themselves.

2048
01:39:37,040 --> 01:39:38,040
Speaker 2: You're selfless, that's.

2049
01:39:38,080 --> 01:39:40,280
Speaker 5: Oh sure, yeah, Now they're Godness is what they are

2050
01:39:40,680 --> 01:39:42,479
Speaker 5: us about. Honestly, do you think for a moment any

2051
01:39:42,520 --> 01:39:44,840
Speaker 5: of them go to worship? Serious question, And I'm just asking,

2052
01:39:44,960 --> 01:39:48,760
Speaker 5: like I'm imploring them, go get right with the Lord.

2053
01:39:48,960 --> 01:39:51,080
Speaker 5: Let me just just walk into a church service, sit

2054
01:39:51,160 --> 01:39:55,080
Speaker 5: down and pray, talk with the pastor go get some

2055
01:39:56,720 --> 01:39:58,960
Speaker 5: get a little Jesus in your life. And I'm serious

2056
01:39:59,000 --> 01:40:03,280
Speaker 5: about that. Like, if you're driven to tears over a politician,

2057
01:40:04,479 --> 01:40:07,880
Speaker 5: there's something wrong with you, really wrong with you, Like

2058
01:40:08,000 --> 01:40:10,200
Speaker 5: white lady in Texas number fifty six.

2059
01:40:11,479 --> 01:40:12,679
Speaker 6: So yes, we need a fighter.

2060
01:40:13,600 --> 01:40:17,320
Speaker 3: And I was so ready to vote for Jaspin Krook

2061
01:40:17,439 --> 01:40:22,360
Speaker 3: because I love her, but I vot it for tallar

2062
01:40:22,400 --> 01:40:24,559
Speaker 3: Rico because we need somebody who can.

2063
01:40:24,520 --> 01:40:29,120
Speaker 2: Win mental illness. It's real.

2064
01:40:29,479 --> 01:40:32,960
Speaker 5: These people are not wired right. There's something terribly wrong

2065
01:40:33,040 --> 01:40:36,240
Speaker 5: with them. When they're not crying, they're trying to shoot

2066
01:40:36,280 --> 01:40:38,639
Speaker 5: at the president. Now you'd think if there's a guy

2067
01:40:38,680 --> 01:40:41,800
Speaker 5: that would cry, like legitimately cry, it's the guy who's

2068
01:40:41,840 --> 01:40:43,840
Speaker 5: had two attempts on his life, and now a third

2069
01:40:44,240 --> 01:40:47,080
Speaker 5: somebody just got into the grounds of his home and

2070
01:40:47,160 --> 01:40:49,599
Speaker 5: he was shot and killed. As you know, it's now

2071
01:40:49,720 --> 01:40:52,479
Speaker 5: just so commonplace that crazies are trying to kill President Trump.

2072
01:40:52,640 --> 01:40:55,040
Speaker 2: He jokes about it in Number sixty one.

2073
01:40:56,640 --> 01:41:00,479
Speaker 25: Americans like Laken and Grant and Hovey and Joshua Rocky,

2074
01:41:01,400 --> 01:41:05,080
Speaker 25: Rachel Kayla. These are great people, and we're never gonna

2075
01:41:05,080 --> 01:41:07,240
Speaker 25: forget them. I'll never forget them. I don't know how

2076
01:41:07,280 --> 01:41:08,120
Speaker 25: long I'll be around.

2077
01:41:09,120 --> 01:41:10,120
Speaker 5: Got a lot of people.

2078
01:41:10,720 --> 01:41:14,560
Speaker 25: Gunning follow me, don't I huh, but I will. I

2079
01:41:14,640 --> 01:41:17,800
Speaker 25: will not forget them. I'm never gonna forget them. And

2080
01:41:17,960 --> 01:41:21,720
Speaker 25: I just think you're among the most brave people. I

2081
01:41:21,800 --> 01:41:23,519
Speaker 25: meet a lot of brave people. I meet warriors. They

2082
01:41:23,520 --> 01:41:27,160
Speaker 25: give out Congressional Medals of Honor where people recommend, like

2083
01:41:27,280 --> 01:41:29,679
Speaker 25: these two in front of me are so wonderful, But they.

2084
01:41:29,680 --> 01:41:33,439
Speaker 2: Recommend, and I meet the greatest people. He's serious, he's serious.

2085
01:41:33,439 --> 01:41:35,519
Speaker 5: He has a lot of people gunning for him, literally

2086
01:41:35,960 --> 01:41:38,639
Speaker 5: trying to kill him, and it's met with some chuckles.

2087
01:41:38,680 --> 01:41:40,880
Speaker 5: We don't even talk about it anymore. Somebody tried to

2088
01:41:40,960 --> 01:41:48,840
Speaker 5: kill the president again. Robert de Niro Rosiodona. This guy's

2089
01:41:48,920 --> 01:41:53,280
Speaker 5: literally being shot at persecuted drug through the ringer and

2090
01:41:53,360 --> 01:41:57,760
Speaker 5: he's having some yucks. Mental illness is a real thing.

2091
01:41:58,640 --> 01:42:01,160
Speaker 5: Bill Is in Philadelphia, Bill, glad you called. Good morning.

01:42:03,720 --> 01:42:08,240
Speaker 8: Either either Trump's correct or closer to the truth, or

2094
01:42:08,320 --> 01:42:11,800
Speaker 8: the squad is correct and closer to the truth. You

2095
01:42:11,840 --> 01:42:15,840
Speaker 8: will only get one choice. You either vote pro my

2096
01:42:16,120 --> 01:42:20,040
Speaker 8: shide the right side, you vote pro the squad and

2097
01:42:20,120 --> 01:42:20,920
Speaker 8: the left side.

2098
01:42:22,040 --> 01:42:24,840
Speaker 5: Thank you. Bill Daniels in Tennessee, Daniel, good morning. I've

2099
01:42:24,880 --> 01:42:26,120
Speaker 5: got a couple of seconds here, go ahead.

2100
01:42:26,160 --> 01:42:29,120
Speaker 31: Hey, good morning, Chris. Hey, thank you for all you do.

2101
01:42:29,320 --> 01:42:29,559
Speaker 13: Chris.

2102
01:42:29,760 --> 01:42:31,840
Speaker 31: And the comment I want to make, which I think

2103
01:42:32,600 --> 01:42:35,599
Speaker 31: is what you were just discussing, is a good segue

2104
01:42:35,760 --> 01:42:38,960
Speaker 31: to my question. And I hope I'm not naive, but

2105
01:42:39,240 --> 01:42:42,320
Speaker 31: just hopeful. What I would like to hear President Trump

2106
01:42:42,400 --> 01:42:47,400
Speaker 31: say this evening is to actually describe the war at

2107
01:42:47,520 --> 01:42:51,720
Speaker 31: which he is engaged in, you know, with the opposition,

2108
01:42:52,479 --> 01:42:56,840
Speaker 31: and why his verbiage at time is so harsh.

2109
01:42:57,080 --> 01:43:00,360
Speaker 2: Got it? Okay, all right, describe the war? Got it.

2110
01:43:00,520 --> 01:43:01,200
Speaker 2: We'll see you tomorrow.

2111
01:43:01,680 --> 01:43:03,719
Speaker 5: So that's a wrap for another Christagall Show podcast.

01:43:03,800 --> 01:43:04,640
Speaker 2: Thanks for committing to it.

2113

01:43:07,560 --> 01:43:08,320
