1
00:00:07,200 --> 00:00:09,960
Speaker 1: Hey, everybody, welcome back to another episode of Laura Trump

2
00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:13,520
Speaker 1: Wanted for Questioning. Let's get into it. It's almost the

3
00:00:13,600 --> 00:00:17,360
Speaker 1: end of January. I don't know how that happened, but

4
00:00:17,520 --> 00:00:19,639
Speaker 1: I have a question about that. And why is it

5
00:00:19,720 --> 00:00:22,439
Speaker 1: going so quickly? This was the first month of the

6
00:00:22,520 --> 00:00:25,640
Speaker 1: year already gone. Here we go. Question number one. With

7
00:00:25,720 --> 00:00:28,240
Speaker 1: all of the studies about social media being harmful to

8
00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:31,120
Speaker 1: young children, do you actually think there's a chance we

9
00:00:31,160 --> 00:00:34,080
Speaker 1: will get legislation on it? You know what I got

10
00:00:34,080 --> 00:00:36,120
Speaker 1: to tell you, I hope so. And I'm not one

11
00:00:36,479 --> 00:00:40,200
Speaker 1: for over regulation. In fact, I am really a person

12
00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:43,800
Speaker 1: who believes in deregulation. You look at how beneficial that's

13
00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:47,680
Speaker 1: been in so many spaces in our country to allowing

14
00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:52,360
Speaker 1: industry to thrive, people to build businesses or houses or

15
00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:55,880
Speaker 1: whatever it is without the burden of the federal government

16
00:00:55,920 --> 00:00:58,040
Speaker 1: on their back and all the red tape and nonsense.

17
00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:02,440
Speaker 1: That said. This is a space where I actually can,

18
00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:07,160
Speaker 1: very as far as I'm concerned, very validly argue that

19
00:01:07,440 --> 00:01:09,800
Speaker 1: I think there needs to be some sort of regulation.

20
00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:13,080
Speaker 1: It's one thing when your kids are six and eight

21
00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:16,840
Speaker 1: like mine are to say no screens and certainly no

22
00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:20,000
Speaker 1: social media yet, although I assume there are some kids

23
00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:22,479
Speaker 1: out there at eight years old who are on social media.

24
00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:27,240
Speaker 1: Crazy to me, but okay, whatever, It becomes a lot harder,

25
00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:30,560
Speaker 1: I think as they get older to tell your kid

26
00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:35,319
Speaker 1: that they're not going to have social media, especially when

27
00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:38,720
Speaker 1: everyone else their age hasn't and I'm talking about like

28
00:01:38,800 --> 00:01:42,720
Speaker 1: the twelve, probably thirteen year old age range. I find

29
00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:46,959
Speaker 1: it to be probably the main way in which kids

30
00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:50,960
Speaker 1: are communicating and the way that they kind of talk

31
00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:54,080
Speaker 1: to one another. You know, it's so hard to tell

32
00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:57,280
Speaker 1: your kid to be the only one to kind of

33
00:01:57,320 --> 00:02:01,040
Speaker 1: be left out of the bunch. And so I love

34
00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:04,080
Speaker 1: what France did, I love what Australia did, although I

35
00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:08,720
Speaker 1: know these kids are finding a workaround whatever. But if

36
00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:12,680
Speaker 1: it is a mandated thing, like you don't have the

37
00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:15,280
Speaker 1: ability to buy alcohol before the age of twenty one,

38
00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:17,520
Speaker 1: you don't have the ability to buy tobacco before the

39
00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:19,399
Speaker 1: age of eighteen, you don't have the ability to drive

40
00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:22,639
Speaker 1: a car before the age of sixteen. Those things are

41
00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:28,200
Speaker 1: hard rules. And it's because we know that the brain

42
00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:33,880
Speaker 1: and the you know, maturity of individuals is not at

43
00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:37,480
Speaker 1: the right level at fifteen to drive, at seventeen, to

44
00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:40,639
Speaker 1: buy tobacco at twenty even. You know, you can argue

45
00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:44,160
Speaker 1: all these things, but there's a reason for those laws,

46
00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:48,160
Speaker 1: and I would be one hundred percent in favor of

47
00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:51,120
Speaker 1: some sort of legislation. Maybe it's an executive order from

48
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:53,440
Speaker 1: the president, although I'd love to see it legislated so

49
00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:58,359
Speaker 1: that it's permanent that mandates the same. For social media,

50
00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:01,680
Speaker 1: I don't know age of sixteen seems appropriate. I mean,

51
00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:04,320
Speaker 1: to me, that's still a little bit early. I personally

52
00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:07,799
Speaker 1: wouldn't mind it being later, but okay, let's go till sixteen.

53
00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:10,480
Speaker 1: When you look at the harm it does to the

54
00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:15,880
Speaker 1: brains of our children, our teens, When you look at

55
00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:20,679
Speaker 1: the suicide rate because of things like social media, when

56
00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:25,679
Speaker 1: you look at the way AI is used to capture

57
00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:30,480
Speaker 1: an image distorted and then potentially blackmail people with that,

58
00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:34,600
Speaker 1: it's just it's a recipe for disaster. And so I

59
00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:36,920
Speaker 1: am all for keeping my kids away from it for

60
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:39,360
Speaker 1: as long as humanly possible. Again, right now, six and

61
00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:43,040
Speaker 1: eight rather easy to do. I'm going to say four

62
00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:45,480
Speaker 1: years from now, for my son, it's probably gonna be

63
00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:48,320
Speaker 1: a little bit more challenging. So if there's a law

64
00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:51,600
Speaker 1: that says that he shouldn't have it. Great, I'm all

65
00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:57,040
Speaker 1: for it. That's my hot take. Okay, next question, who

66
00:03:57,120 --> 00:03:59,680
Speaker 1: are you rooting for in the Super Bowl and do

67
00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:03,800
Speaker 1: you watched the commercials cut? None of my teams? I mean,

68
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:07,080
Speaker 1: let me go back. Okay. Start of the season, my

69
00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:11,000
Speaker 1: whole family picked teams. I chose the Buffalo Bills, my

70
00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:15,400
Speaker 1: husband chose the Pittsburgh Steelers, my son chose the Kansas

71
00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:18,360
Speaker 1: City Chiefs because he's a Patrick Mahomes fan, and my daughter,

72
00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:23,040
Speaker 1: solely based on her name Carolina, chose the Carolina Panthers. Obviously,

73
00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:25,520
Speaker 1: my team hung in the longest I'll just throw it

74
00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:29,520
Speaker 1: out there. I was very, very distraught, of course, during

75
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:34,720
Speaker 1: the game that the Bills were officially eliminated. But then

76
00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:36,720
Speaker 1: I said, you know what, then maybe I had to

77
00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:39,800
Speaker 1: cheer for the Broncos. My brother and his wife are

78
00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:42,520
Speaker 1: huge Broncos fans. My sister in law grew up right

79
00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:46,080
Speaker 1: outside of Denver, so lifelong Broncos fan. I was like,

80
00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:47,600
Speaker 1: you know what, I'm gonna get on board with that.

81
00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:50,200
Speaker 1: They beat the Bills. They took my team out, so cool,

82
00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:54,280
Speaker 1: I'm going to be rooting for the Broncos. Broncos are

83
00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:58,240
Speaker 1: out now. I'm down to the Patriots, and I was

84
00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:00,760
Speaker 1: kind of cheering for LA I'll be honest, And then

85
00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:02,800
Speaker 1: the Seahawks. Want Seahawks are a heck of a team.

86
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:06,800
Speaker 1: I find that they're I mean, as far as I'm concerned,

87
00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:10,520
Speaker 1: they're probably gonna be hard to beat. I guess I'm

88
00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:14,360
Speaker 1: gonna cheer for the Patriots. It's one of those where

89
00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:16,800
Speaker 1: I'm like, I don't know, I don't really have an

90
00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:19,400
Speaker 1: allegiance in any way, shape or form to either of

91
00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:23,960
Speaker 1: these teams, So I guess I'll cheer for the Patriots.

92
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:26,480
Speaker 1: Bob Craft has been nice enough to our family over

93
00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:29,239
Speaker 1: the years, so yeah, maybe I'm gonna cheer for the Patriots.

94
00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:32,000
Speaker 1: Although I think the Seahawks they look pretty freaking good.

95
00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:34,240
Speaker 1: They look like they're gonna be hard to beat. Yeah,

96
00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:36,839
Speaker 1: we always watch the commercials. The commercials are like half

97
00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:40,239
Speaker 1: the fun of the super Bowl. Although I will say

98
00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:43,479
Speaker 1: I'll caveat that by saying I'm gonna be watching the

99
00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:46,640
Speaker 1: super Bowl with my kids. My husband is gonna be

100
00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:49,039
Speaker 1: on an airplane, so I will be solo with our children.

101
00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:52,280
Speaker 1: So trying to maintain two kids at what is likely

102
00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:54,840
Speaker 1: a super Bowl party that will probably attend at either

103
00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:59,560
Speaker 1: friend's house, at a golf club something like that. It's

104
00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:01,880
Speaker 1: gonna be interesting. So I'm gonna watch as much as

105
00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:04,800
Speaker 1: I possibly can. Now, my son, the good news is

106
00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:08,400
Speaker 1: he's very into football, and so he's got his whole thing.

107
00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:12,160
Speaker 1: His whole focus will be on the game, and I'll

108
00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:14,480
Speaker 1: probably see him right in front of a TV watching it.

109
00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:16,120
Speaker 1: He did ask me on the way to school the

110
00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:18,240
Speaker 1: other day if we could go to the Super Bowl.

111
00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:22,160
Speaker 1: Not going to this one, sorry, kid. Maybe next year

112
00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:24,360
Speaker 1: because I think it's in Atlanta next year. That seems

113
00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:27,240
Speaker 1: slightly more feasible to me. But that's it. Yeah, I mean,

114
00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:30,080
Speaker 1: I'm excited. I love a great sporting event. I love

115
00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:34,080
Speaker 1: an excuse to gather people together to eat good food

116
00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:38,080
Speaker 1: and to watch football. It's good stuff to me. Although again,

117
00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:41,680
Speaker 1: none of the teams I even cared about at all

118
00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:45,279
Speaker 1: are in the Super Bowl, and then whenever I would

119
00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:47,279
Speaker 1: choose a team I was gonna root for, they lost.

120
00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:49,600
Speaker 1: But that's all right, that's how it goes, And as

121
00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:55,960
Speaker 1: they say, there's always next year. Next question. Do you

122
00:06:56,040 --> 00:07:01,360
Speaker 1: miss the snow at all? Now? Living in Florida a

123
00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:04,880
Speaker 1: little bit, I'll say I miss I missed the first

124
00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:08,920
Speaker 1: like two hours of a snowfall, or or the first

125
00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:12,840
Speaker 1: time you have snow, first big snow of the season.

126
00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:15,960
Speaker 1: It's fun to get out in it for a little bit.

127
00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:18,880
Speaker 1: I'm like a thirty minutes in the snow type of person,

128
00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:21,160
Speaker 1: and then I need to get back to real life

129
00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:23,400
Speaker 1: here in Florida. Although I'll tell you something, it is

130
00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:26,520
Speaker 1: cold in Florida this week. I saw these memes where

131
00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:29,160
Speaker 1: it was like Florida decided not to participate in winter

132
00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:32,440
Speaker 1: last week, where everybody in the country was like in

133
00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:35,720
Speaker 1: the single digits, and then Florida was like orange and

134
00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:38,640
Speaker 1: red because it was about eighty five degrees here this

135
00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:43,160
Speaker 1: past weekend, not this week. We're not getting above like

136
00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:45,920
Speaker 1: sixty degrees around here this week. And in fact, I

137
00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:49,720
Speaker 1: think Sunday it's gonna be in the twenties. Monday next

138
00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:52,120
Speaker 1: week it's gonna be in the twenties. So we're getting

139
00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:56,000
Speaker 1: our dose of it. But look, I thrive on being outdoors,

140
00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:59,680
Speaker 1: and honestly so to my kids, so to my dogs.

141
00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:04,680
Speaker 1: Life is a lot easier when it's not absolutely frigid out,

142
00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:07,400
Speaker 1: when you're getting vitamin D, when you're able to have

143
00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:10,360
Speaker 1: your skin a little exposed to the sun. So yeah,

144
00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:13,960
Speaker 1: I do miss like that first snowfall. Would I trade it?

145
00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:17,720
Speaker 1: Absolutely not, not for anything. The quality of life down

146
00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:21,360
Speaker 1: here in Florida is so great. Absolutely love it. Now

147
00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:24,160
Speaker 1: we get the like three months of hotter than forty

148
00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:28,480
Speaker 1: Hell's temperatures. Yeah, I know, like June, July, August, even

149
00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:31,880
Speaker 1: into September can be a little egregious in terms of

150
00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:34,760
Speaker 1: the heat, but I don't know. This time of year,

151
00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:39,240
Speaker 1: it's really it's really great stuff. So I miss the

152
00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:42,440
Speaker 1: thought of snow, although we'll go for a week skiing

153
00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:44,520
Speaker 1: for the kids' spring break, so I'm gonna get plenty

154
00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:47,199
Speaker 1: of snow there. So don't you worry about me at all.

155
00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:53,160
Speaker 1: We're all set. Okay, what are your thoughts on Greenland? Well,

156
00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:55,520
Speaker 1: I think it's interesting because one of the things that

157
00:08:55,600 --> 00:09:00,480
Speaker 1: President Trump is very good at doing is taking a

158
00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:06,679
Speaker 1: situation that most people look at on face value and say,

159
00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:10,040
Speaker 1: what is he talking about? Why on Earth is he

160
00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:14,640
Speaker 1: focused on this? And then slowly but surely he's kind

161
00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:17,400
Speaker 1: of like convinces people of his point. And I think

162
00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:21,720
Speaker 1: he's done that, certainly after Davos and his speech there

163
00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:25,000
Speaker 1: with a lot of the country and maybe a lot

164
00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:29,559
Speaker 1: of the world, My thoughts on Greenland are that, you know, we,

165
00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:33,240
Speaker 1: as the President pointed out in his Davos speech, we

166
00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:37,440
Speaker 1: could have and maybe we should have kept Greenland for ourselves.

167
00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:41,480
Speaker 1: After World War Two. You know, we defended Greenland and

168
00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:43,200
Speaker 1: we held on to it, and we gave it back

169
00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:46,520
Speaker 1: to Denmark at the end of World War Two, despite

170
00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:49,840
Speaker 1: them having no ability to defend it whatsoever. They were

171
00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:54,160
Speaker 1: fully overtaken, of course by the Germans. We defended Greenland

172
00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:58,800
Speaker 1: for them and from Germany, and we were nice enough

173
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:01,000
Speaker 1: I'm not totally sure or why, but we were nice

174
00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:03,800
Speaker 1: enough on the other side to give it back to them.

175
00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:07,680
Speaker 1: Typically that doesn't happen, you know, when you have wars.

176
00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:11,520
Speaker 1: If you kind of have a land you've defended and

177
00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:13,439
Speaker 1: there's no one else there to kind of claim it,

178
00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:15,520
Speaker 1: maybe keep it for yourself. But okay, so we gave

179
00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:18,280
Speaker 1: it back. Now you kind of fast forward to where

180
00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:21,719
Speaker 1: we are right now, eighty years later or so. And

181
00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:26,800
Speaker 1: it's interesting because you look at the strategic location of Greenland,

182
00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:29,480
Speaker 1: you consider the fact that there is no other country

183
00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:32,840
Speaker 1: in the world who has the true ability to defend

184
00:10:32,880 --> 00:10:36,640
Speaker 1: Greenland the way the United States does. You better believe

185
00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:42,080
Speaker 1: that Russia, that China, North Korea, any of our adversaries

186
00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:45,680
Speaker 1: are looking at Greenland and they understand its location and

187
00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:50,200
Speaker 1: they understand why having the Golden Dome defense kind of

188
00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:54,280
Speaker 1: station there is so imperative to the future of the

189
00:10:54,320 --> 00:11:00,200
Speaker 1: Western world, to ensuring safety here for North America honestly,

190
00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:05,120
Speaker 1: and Canada you're welcome on that too. You know. You

191
00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:09,520
Speaker 1: couple that with the rare earth minerals that Greenland contains,

192
00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:12,240
Speaker 1: and let's be honest, we're going to need a lot

193
00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:14,840
Speaker 1: of those the way things are looking for our future,

194
00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:17,160
Speaker 1: and we don't want to be reliant on places like

195
00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:20,800
Speaker 1: China for those sort of things. It's very important, it's

196
00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:24,680
Speaker 1: very impactful. We already have you know, military outposts there

197
00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:28,840
Speaker 1: in Greenland, and it sounds like the President has the

198
00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:33,920
Speaker 1: framework of what could be a deal of some variety

199
00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:37,040
Speaker 1: with with Greenland on you know, the end of his

200
00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:41,160
Speaker 1: trip there at the World Economic Forum, he says that,

201
00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:43,120
Speaker 1: you know, he's got it kind of framed up and

202
00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:46,560
Speaker 1: he's in talks about it, which I think is great

203
00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:49,880
Speaker 1: and I think people understand now maybe a little better.

204
00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:51,520
Speaker 1: Before it was kind of like a pipe dream. It

205
00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:54,679
Speaker 1: sounded crazy. It was like, we're going to take Greenland. Why.

206
00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:58,040
Speaker 1: I think people really understand now why it's so important.

207
00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:02,440
Speaker 1: Why if Russia is shooting an intercontinent old ballistic missile

208
00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:06,559
Speaker 1: at US, and we have that defense system there in Greenland,

209
00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:11,040
Speaker 1: like we have for example, in Alaska, so that if

210
00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:14,120
Speaker 1: they're coming at us from that direction, we can stop them.

211
00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:18,400
Speaker 1: You got to you gotta have your eyes open at

212
00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:20,520
Speaker 1: all times. And we have to plan for the worst.

213
00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:22,320
Speaker 1: We have to hope for the best, but plan for

214
00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:26,760
Speaker 1: the worst, and that includes to some extent having some

215
00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:32,800
Speaker 1: ownership or control of Greenland. And I think that we're

216
00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:35,000
Speaker 1: going to see a good outcome. I feel really confident

217
00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:39,040
Speaker 1: that this president has been able to explain it and

218
00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:41,520
Speaker 1: to kind of sell it, at least to a lot

219
00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:44,800
Speaker 1: of the NATO countries. It sounds like they're getting it too.

220
00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:49,760
Speaker 1: So let's see what happens. I feel good about it, Okay,

221
00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:54,920
Speaker 1: Is Sparkle Beach can the funniest way you've heard Gavin

222
00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:59,960
Speaker 1: Newsom described? Maybe it's the kindest way I've heard Gavin

223
00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:03,760
Speaker 1: Newsom described. Of course, that was our Treasury Secretary Scott Bessant,

224
00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:10,440
Speaker 1: who had Sparkle Beachkin as his uh his description of

225
00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:14,959
Speaker 1: Gavin Newsom and it is kind of accurate because he's

226
00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:18,680
Speaker 1: got this look about him that is pretty pretty much

227
00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:22,600
Speaker 1: his standard look, which looks it appears that he spends

228
00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:25,760
Speaker 1: a lot of time on his appearance. That and then

229
00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:27,720
Speaker 1: I appreciate that we all want to put our best

230
00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:29,680
Speaker 1: foot forward, we all want to present ourselves to the

231
00:13:29,679 --> 00:13:33,840
Speaker 1: world in the best possible way. But maybe maybe he

232
00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:37,680
Speaker 1: spends a lot of time on it. And let's be

233
00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:40,679
Speaker 1: honest about Ken. What was Ken doing not a lot?

234
00:13:41,880 --> 00:13:44,560
Speaker 1: Was he the smartest guy in the world. I don't

235
00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:49,000
Speaker 1: think so. Did he look good just kind of being around, Yeah,

236
00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:51,280
Speaker 1: he looked good enough. Okay, that's kind of Gavin Newsom.

237
00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:55,680
Speaker 1: Look at California. It is complete and total disaster. Everything

238
00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:58,520
Speaker 1: has gone in the wrong direction in California. People are

239
00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:02,000
Speaker 1: fleeing that state because they got to get out. I mean,

240
00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:06,200
Speaker 1: homelessness is up. People are paying more for everything in California.

241
00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:08,480
Speaker 1: It's one of the few states in the country where

242
00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:12,360
Speaker 1: you don't have three dollars a gallon or below per

243
00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:15,200
Speaker 1: gallon of gas. It's of course, we know how sky

244
00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:19,480
Speaker 1: high everything is in California. If you're a business owner there,

245
00:14:19,680 --> 00:14:22,160
Speaker 1: good luck to you. If you make over a certain

246
00:14:22,160 --> 00:14:23,920
Speaker 1: amount of money. Man, You're going to be paying out

247
00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:26,560
Speaker 1: the nose to Gavin Newsom, and yet what do you

248
00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:28,840
Speaker 1: have to show for it? You have that high speed

249
00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:31,600
Speaker 1: rail that has cost how much money that has no

250
00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:34,720
Speaker 1: future at all of being built, Like, we're probably never

251
00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:38,080
Speaker 1: going to see that in California, so many issues there.

252
00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:40,760
Speaker 1: They're still figuring out what the heck happened with the fires?

253
00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:44,320
Speaker 1: Have they even started rebuilding yet? It's been a year

254
00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:49,000
Speaker 1: plus since that whole fiasco happens, So it's just been

255
00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:52,440
Speaker 1: a disaster there. So maybe that is the nicest way

256
00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:56,560
Speaker 1: you could possibly describe Gavin Newsome. And I give a

257
00:14:56,600 --> 00:15:00,160
Speaker 1: lot of credit to Scott Besstt for coming up with

258
00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:06,720
Speaker 1: that little quip about him. Very funny but probably pretty accurate. Okay,

259
00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:10,280
Speaker 1: final question, what are your hopes and dreams for the

260
00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:15,800
Speaker 1: next three years and beyond for America? Well, I am

261
00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:20,920
Speaker 1: very hopeful that we get another three years. Like the

262
00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:25,480
Speaker 1: first year of the Trump presidency. Man, things really happen

263
00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:29,520
Speaker 1: at such an incredible rate. I think that if people

264
00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:32,800
Speaker 1: really sit back and look at what Donald Trump has

265
00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:36,240
Speaker 1: been able to accomplish in this first year of his

266
00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:39,920
Speaker 1: second term, it's insane. I mean to see that he's

267
00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:44,120
Speaker 1: ended eight conflicts around the world, Middle East peace, which

268
00:15:44,800 --> 00:15:47,240
Speaker 1: initially people were like, there's no way any of the

269
00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:50,960
Speaker 1: Middle East situation is ever going to come to, you know,

270
00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:55,680
Speaker 1: a resolution, and it did. Taking out Ronnie and nuclear sites,

271
00:15:56,040 --> 00:15:59,560
Speaker 1: capturing someone like Nicholas Maduro to bring him to justice,

272
00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:03,840
Speaker 1: stopping the illicit drugs coming into America in such a

273
00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:09,320
Speaker 1: way that the fentanol deaths have decreased by over twenty

274
00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:13,520
Speaker 1: percent from a year ago. That's like twenty thousand lives

275
00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:16,760
Speaker 1: that this president has saved. You couple that with the

276
00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:19,320
Speaker 1: wars that he's ended around the world and the number

277
00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:22,960
Speaker 1: of lives he's likely saved because of that, I mean

278
00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:26,000
Speaker 1: just in lives alone that he's saved. It's been incredible

279
00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:29,960
Speaker 1: to see our most secure southern border ever in the

280
00:16:30,040 --> 00:16:33,480
Speaker 1: history of America. Right. You see that we're getting the

281
00:16:33,560 --> 00:16:37,680
Speaker 1: bad guys out, that inflation has gone down, real wage

282
00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:43,000
Speaker 1: growth is increasing, and it's real, you know, the investment

283
00:16:43,120 --> 00:16:45,960
Speaker 1: in the United States and the jobs that that is

284
00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:49,240
Speaker 1: going to spur here in this country. We're in the

285
00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:52,960
Speaker 1: year of the one big, beautiful bill all happening. I mean,

286
00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:56,000
Speaker 1: I think that there's just so much to be excited

287
00:16:56,000 --> 00:17:00,400
Speaker 1: about strengthening our military, having them focus on lethality again

288
00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:06,200
Speaker 1: and readiness to go into battle. Quite frankly, just renaming

289
00:17:07,600 --> 00:17:11,080
Speaker 1: the Department of Defense Department of War epic. We should

290
00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:12,359
Speaker 1: have done that a long time ago. I don't know

291
00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:14,280
Speaker 1: who had the idea to take the name war out

292
00:17:14,320 --> 00:17:16,720
Speaker 1: of it. I love it. I think it's great, the

293
00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:20,439
Speaker 1: Gulf of America great, These are all awesome things. I

294
00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:22,760
Speaker 1: can't I mean, we could sit here for probably two

295
00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:25,399
Speaker 1: hours and go through point by point everything that this

296
00:17:25,480 --> 00:17:27,360
Speaker 1: president has been able to do in his first term.

297
00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:31,320
Speaker 1: So I hope each year that follows of the following

298
00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:34,520
Speaker 1: three we see that kind of movement, we see that

299
00:17:34,600 --> 00:17:37,040
Speaker 1: kind of action, because man, that is going to set

300
00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:41,600
Speaker 1: America up for a great, great trajectory. And then I

301
00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:45,199
Speaker 1: honestly hope that I just hope that people's eyes are

302
00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:49,359
Speaker 1: opened to a certain extent because it's been really hard,

303
00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:52,560
Speaker 1: I think for a lot of conservatives, but certainly for

304
00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:55,560
Speaker 1: those of us in my family. It's been challenging over

305
00:17:55,560 --> 00:17:59,600
Speaker 1: the course of the past god what eleven years almost

306
00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:02,960
Speaker 1: now that you know, we've kind of been in this

307
00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:06,239
Speaker 1: whole thing alongside my father in law, to see the

308
00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:10,080
Speaker 1: way that lies are just allowed to foment and there's

309
00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:13,320
Speaker 1: really no correction for them. Okay, yeah, somebody after the

310
00:18:13,400 --> 00:18:17,400
Speaker 1: fact will issue, like five days later at the bottom

311
00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:23,119
Speaker 1: of their you know, online newsletter or bottom of the newspaper,

312
00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:25,480
Speaker 1: some sort of a correction. Nobody sees that, nobody cares.

313
00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:27,600
Speaker 1: The damage has done. The clickbait is already out there,

314
00:18:28,280 --> 00:18:32,400
Speaker 1: you know how it goes. I hope more Americans understand

315
00:18:33,640 --> 00:18:36,360
Speaker 1: the truth and they have their eyes opened to the truth,

316
00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:39,119
Speaker 1: because I think once you see it, you really can't

317
00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:42,320
Speaker 1: unsee it. And I think it's continued to grow in America.

318
00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:46,480
Speaker 1: I think that's why Donald Trump won so resoundingly in

319
00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:49,480
Speaker 1: twenty twenty four, is that there were so many Americans

320
00:18:49,480 --> 00:18:51,840
Speaker 1: that were like, wait a minute, I've been duped, I've

321
00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:54,800
Speaker 1: been lied to, and I don't want to live like

322
00:18:54,840 --> 00:18:56,920
Speaker 1: this anymore. And this is not right what they've said

323
00:18:56,920 --> 00:18:59,639
Speaker 1: about Donald Trump, the way they're trying to frame this man.

324
00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:03,080
Speaker 1: Throw him in jail because he's the political opponent of

325
00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:07,200
Speaker 1: any Democrat, you name him. I was gonna say Joe Biden,

326
00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:10,359
Speaker 1: but we all know how that turned out for old Joe.

327
00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:13,760
Speaker 1: I just hope people see the truth because we cannot

328
00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:18,840
Speaker 1: go forward as a country with one with like two

329
00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:23,680
Speaker 1: different versions of America happening simultaneously, where you have one

330
00:19:23,760 --> 00:19:27,000
Speaker 1: version of America that is the very far left who

331
00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:30,080
Speaker 1: lives in their bubble, and the same could be said

332
00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:33,800
Speaker 1: about folks on the right. I want it all exposed,

333
00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:36,480
Speaker 1: all of it. Please just give it to us. We

334
00:19:36,520 --> 00:19:39,000
Speaker 1: can handle it. You don't have to coddle us, you

335
00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:42,359
Speaker 1: don't have to sugarcoat anything. Americans can handle it. So

336
00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:45,840
Speaker 1: I hope people start getting the truth and really understanding

337
00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:48,320
Speaker 1: the truth out there. And I think Donald Trump has

338
00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:50,120
Speaker 1: been pretty good at exposing a lot of that. Look

339
00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:53,600
Speaker 1: when he first started talking about the fake news, I

340
00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:55,720
Speaker 1: think people were like, what is that? What is he

341
00:19:55,800 --> 00:19:58,760
Speaker 1: talking about? Now? You know? Now? You understand it. I

342
00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:02,200
Speaker 1: know you do. We all do now. But he's lifted

343
00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:04,080
Speaker 1: the lid on a lot of things. He's pulled back

344
00:20:04,119 --> 00:20:06,400
Speaker 1: the curtain on a lot of things. And I hope

345
00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:10,879
Speaker 1: there's transparency in so many spaces in Washington, d C.

346
00:20:11,040 --> 00:20:13,640
Speaker 1: And elsewhere at the end of his three year term,

347
00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:16,200
Speaker 1: because that is going to set us up for success

348
00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:20,080
Speaker 1: for the future of America. And whoever is the person

349
00:20:20,080 --> 00:20:23,720
Speaker 1: who comes behind him, I hope it will be a Republican.

350
00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:28,240
Speaker 1: It's going to be up to that person to maintain

351
00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:31,160
Speaker 1: what he has started, and it's going to be tough.

352
00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:33,920
Speaker 1: There will never be another Donald J. Trump, there will

353
00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:36,920
Speaker 1: never be anyone else like him. But we can learn

354
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:39,679
Speaker 1: from what he has exposed and what he's shown all

355
00:20:39,720 --> 00:20:43,119
Speaker 1: of us. And I think as long as we do that,

356
00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:46,440
Speaker 1: I think the future is very bright for this country.

357
00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:47,840
Speaker 1: All right, that's going to do it for us. For
