1 00:00:00,560 --> 00:00:04,600 Speaker 1: Nightcap abbreviated, though it may be Gary Jeff Walker with you. 2 00:00:04,720 --> 00:00:09,080 Speaker 1: After President Trump's State of the Union address, the country's 3 00:00:09,080 --> 00:00:12,559 Speaker 1: two hundred and fiftieth birthday being celebrated in just a 4 00:00:12,560 --> 00:00:16,160 Speaker 1: matter of months on July fourth of this year, It's 5 00:00:16,200 --> 00:00:20,720 Speaker 1: going to be quite the celebration, and a lot of 6 00:00:20,760 --> 00:00:25,280 Speaker 1: that is owed to our current and the forty seventh 7 00:00:25,320 --> 00:00:30,120 Speaker 1: president of the United States. Tonight, he laid out his agenda, 8 00:00:30,280 --> 00:00:36,960 Speaker 1: his successes, and celebrated many many patriotic people that were 9 00:00:37,040 --> 00:00:41,239 Speaker 1: guests for the State of the Union. I letna say, 10 00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:44,920 Speaker 1: first and foremost, I make no bones about the fact 11 00:00:44,960 --> 00:00:47,159 Speaker 1: that I have voted for the man three times now 12 00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:51,080 Speaker 1: for president. The second time, I feel like my vote 13 00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:55,000 Speaker 1: was stolen. So many of us have that same feeling. 14 00:00:56,560 --> 00:01:00,360 Speaker 1: But nevertheless, he is the president of the United States States. 15 00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:03,880 Speaker 1: He is commander in chief. He is the executive officer 16 00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:08,399 Speaker 1: of our country large and in charge. No matter what 17 00:01:08,520 --> 00:01:12,520 Speaker 1: you may think of him, my patriotism is unaffected by 18 00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:17,080 Speaker 1: who was president. However, as we are in to our 19 00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:21,360 Speaker 1: two hundred and fiftieth year as a country since declaring 20 00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:24,880 Speaker 1: independence from Great Britain July fourth of seventeen seventy six. 21 00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:31,000 Speaker 1: The mainstream media, many of them don't seem to share 22 00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:38,840 Speaker 1: that patriotism just because it's Trump, and some members of 23 00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:45,520 Speaker 1: those media are right here in our midst But the 24 00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:49,080 Speaker 1: President laid out where we were and where we are 25 00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:53,440 Speaker 1: today and made a very compelling case that we are 26 00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:57,560 Speaker 1: much better off as a country. One year after he 27 00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:03,000 Speaker 1: took the oath of office. The border absolutely secure, and 28 00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:07,000 Speaker 1: he outlined that in no uncertain terms in the speech 29 00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:12,960 Speaker 1: this evening, getting illegals out, massive deportation. That's one of 30 00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:17,959 Speaker 1: the reasons that people like I and seventy seven million 31 00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:26,880 Speaker 1: others voted for him. Inflation is down, and I've had 32 00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:29,920 Speaker 1: guests tell me, well, every president cooks the books and 33 00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:32,760 Speaker 1: fixes the numbers on that We'll see where it is 34 00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:37,040 Speaker 1: in six months, and we shall. But the numbers that 35 00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:41,520 Speaker 1: we have today, the evidence that we have today says 36 00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:47,480 Speaker 1: that things are getting better. Employment is up, wages are up. 37 00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:53,919 Speaker 1: Right now, delivering the Democrat response to the State of 38 00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:58,800 Speaker 1: the Union is the newly elected governor of Virginia, Abigail Spamberger. 39 00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:06,080 Speaker 1: Very very telling what she has done so far since 40 00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:12,959 Speaker 1: she took office as opposed to the campaign she put 41 00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:15,440 Speaker 1: on as a moderate Democrat the first thing she did 42 00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:20,480 Speaker 1: was raised taxes on almost everything, and many other Democrats 43 00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:24,960 Speaker 1: are doing the same thing, eliminating the benefits of Trump's 44 00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:28,120 Speaker 1: big beautiful bill that was passed by Congress and signed 45 00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:33,360 Speaker 1: by him this past summer. No tax on tips, social Security, 46 00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:36,560 Speaker 1: over time, all of the things that were included, the 47 00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:42,400 Speaker 1: continuance of the original Trump tax cuts from his first term, 48 00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:48,400 Speaker 1: saving people thousands of dollars. The Democrats can't have that, 49 00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 1: and they're enclaves. They are one party rules states and 50 00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:55,640 Speaker 1: cities all over the place. They're trying to take away 51 00:03:55,880 --> 00:04:00,880 Speaker 1: every benefit that came with that big beautiful bill for 52 00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:06,960 Speaker 1: the taxpayer. You know, and I don't care as much 53 00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:11,880 Speaker 1: about what he says as opposed to what he does, 54 00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:16,680 Speaker 1: President Trump, because what he has done in just one year, 55 00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:23,479 Speaker 1: I think is totally remarkable. And he absolutely outlined that tonight. 56 00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:28,680 Speaker 1: Call it the Golden Age of America. It's truly begun 57 00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:33,600 Speaker 1: a turnaround for the ages, a secure border, a spirit restored, 58 00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:38,400 Speaker 1: a patriotic spirit, and all through this speech tonight, in 59 00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:40,839 Speaker 1: case you didn't hear it, or didn't notice, or didn't 60 00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:43,960 Speaker 1: care to notice, because you just can't stand President Trump. 61 00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:47,120 Speaker 1: And I know some of you are out there. I've 62 00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:54,360 Speaker 1: talked to you before the chance of USA, USA, USA, 63 00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:58,799 Speaker 1: before the Olympic gold winning men's hockey team even walked 64 00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:02,320 Speaker 1: into the room. And boy, they did talk about a 65 00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:10,640 Speaker 1: proud bunch. Talk about a heroic, patriotic bunch of young guys. Oh, 66 00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:16,360 Speaker 1: gen Z, they don't understand that America is a great country. 67 00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:19,880 Speaker 1: These guys seem to and they were soaking it in 68 00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:27,200 Speaker 1: every minute. The President even announced that Connor Helba, the 69 00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:32,440 Speaker 1: winning goalie, is going to receive the highest civilian offer, 70 00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:36,279 Speaker 1: the highest civilian honor in this country, the Presidential Medal 71 00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:37,120 Speaker 1: of Freedom. 72 00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:38,799 Speaker 2: That was cool. 73 00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:44,039 Speaker 1: In nine months, President Trump touted zero illegal aliens have 74 00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:51,960 Speaker 1: been admitted into the country. That's unbelievable. That's amazing considering 75 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:54,880 Speaker 1: what happened the four years before he took office, again 76 00:05:55,880 --> 00:06:00,680 Speaker 1: under Joe Biden and a border star who wouldn't even 77 00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:04,680 Speaker 1: go to the border. When asked if she had gone 78 00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:07,720 Speaker 1: to the border, Kamala Harris, she said, well no, but 79 00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:14,040 Speaker 1: I haven't gone to Europe either. Well that's quite a 80 00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:20,919 Speaker 1: credential for somebody who wanted to be president. He said, 81 00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:24,880 Speaker 1: we will always allow legal immigration in this country for 82 00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:28,120 Speaker 1: people that want to work hard and help make this 83 00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:32,520 Speaker 1: country even greater than it already is. And many immigrants have. 84 00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:38,000 Speaker 1: But let's not confuse the people who flooded into this 85 00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:44,000 Speaker 1: country by the tens of millions during Joe Biden's term 86 00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:47,520 Speaker 1: and are slowly but surely being weeded out, many of 87 00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:53,120 Speaker 1: them criminals, crazy people, and people who don't want to 88 00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:58,279 Speaker 1: assimilate the great melting pot that is this country. And 89 00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:02,960 Speaker 1: we are a country built on immigration. The melting pot 90 00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:07,000 Speaker 1: meant that you brought the best from where you came 91 00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:12,560 Speaker 1: from and added it to the stew, not tried to 92 00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:17,280 Speaker 1: change the recipe altogether. And many of the people who 93 00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:23,120 Speaker 1: came in under Joe Biden illegally and want no part 94 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:29,800 Speaker 1: of the American dream. They wanted to freebies. They escaped 95 00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:34,480 Speaker 1: their countries and tried to turn the country they came 96 00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:38,960 Speaker 1: into the USA into the hell holes that were the 97 00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:44,320 Speaker 1: places they came from. Number One, learned the language, not 98 00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:50,440 Speaker 1: Fentanyl down fifty six percent since President Trump took office, 99 00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:58,480 Speaker 1: the biggest decline in crime since nineteen hundred. The President 100 00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:02,640 Speaker 1: mentioned several times that's one hundred and twenty five years. 101 00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:08,040 Speaker 1: That's before his father was even born. He joked about 102 00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:14,360 Speaker 1: it while Biden delivered inflation. President Trump has the lowest 103 00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:17,840 Speaker 1: inflation in five years in this country. Gas prices are down, 104 00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:27,040 Speaker 1: mortgage rates are down, and the typical mortgage payment in 105 00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:30,000 Speaker 1: a yearly basis is down some five thousand dollars just 106 00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:33,800 Speaker 1: in one year. Fifty three all time highs in the 107 00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:40,720 Speaker 1: stock market in the last twelve months. In the last 108 00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:43,800 Speaker 1: twelve months, more than eighteen trillion have poured in because 109 00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:49,840 Speaker 1: of the tariffs that Trump imposed and the deregulation bringing 110 00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:54,360 Speaker 1: jobs back to this country. Seventy thousand new construction jobs 111 00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:57,760 Speaker 1: have been added. He said, we were dead. Now we're 112 00:08:57,800 --> 00:09:02,319 Speaker 1: the hottest country on the face of the earth. An 113 00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:07,360 Speaker 1: oil drill, baby drill, It's a reality. Natural gas production 114 00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:11,600 Speaker 1: at all time hies eighty million barrels of oil alone 115 00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:17,360 Speaker 1: from Venezuela, and one hundred percent of all the jobs 116 00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:20,480 Speaker 1: created so far in the first year of President Trump's 117 00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:26,800 Speaker 1: second term. Our private sector job, not on the federal 118 00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:29,320 Speaker 1: government dole, not on the taxpayer dime. 119 00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:32,080 Speaker 2: He said. 120 00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:36,160 Speaker 1: The state of our union is strong. People are going 121 00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:38,240 Speaker 1: to complain. This is what he said during the first term. 122 00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:42,640 Speaker 1: People are going to complain, and many did, especially Democrats, 123 00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:48,199 Speaker 1: and people just can't stand. Donald Trump said, oh, mister President, 124 00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:51,200 Speaker 1: we're winning too much. But he says the winning is 125 00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:55,520 Speaker 1: going to go on and on. When he introduced the 126 00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:59,400 Speaker 1: winners of Olympic gold, the USA hockey team, the chance 127 00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:04,280 Speaker 1: of USA rained down again, and he also noted that 128 00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:07,120 Speaker 1: the American women's hockey team are going to be coming 129 00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:09,280 Speaker 1: to the White House, at least the members that want 130 00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:15,560 Speaker 1: to mentioned color hellbut the winning goalie of the US 131 00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:23,160 Speaker 1: team receiving the Presidential Medal of Freedom. The President also 132 00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:28,480 Speaker 1: talked about crime and these surges that have that he's 133 00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:34,959 Speaker 1: orchestrated of law enforcement into these major cities, most of 134 00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:38,120 Speaker 1: them deep blue Democrat controlled cities like Washington, d C. 135 00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:43,800 Speaker 1: Now DC is one of the safest cities in the world. 136 00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:54,720 Speaker 1: He talked about the Trump accounts for babies, the government 137 00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:59,960 Speaker 1: giving newborns and their parents a head start on saving 138 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:06,199 Speaker 1: for their future, and the touting of the tariffs. As 139 00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:09,400 Speaker 1: the President mentioned during the speech tonight, twenty two Nobel 140 00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:14,240 Speaker 1: Prize winning economists said that the Trump's tariff policy and 141 00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:17,880 Speaker 1: his economic policies were going to take us down the tubes. 142 00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:22,520 Speaker 1: As President Trump pointed out, so far, they were dead wrong. 143 00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:28,160 Speaker 1: He did mention the Supreme Court and the unfortunate ruling 144 00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:35,360 Speaker 1: on tariffs last week. But he did not bang on 145 00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:40,000 Speaker 1: members of the Court who voted that way, and many 146 00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:43,320 Speaker 1: people were concerned that he would. This would be a 147 00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:47,560 Speaker 1: mistake that the President would go all Trump on him 148 00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:51,600 Speaker 1: and go off script. And that's another thing I'll say 149 00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:55,960 Speaker 1: about this State of the Union address tonight. He pretty 150 00:11:56,040 --> 00:12:02,280 Speaker 1: much stayed on script all night because a lot of 151 00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:05,840 Speaker 1: times he gets in trouble with some people for varing off, 152 00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:13,320 Speaker 1: going off the page. In mentioning the Supreme Court and 153 00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:18,920 Speaker 1: the tariff ruling, he did mention that within about forty 154 00:12:18,920 --> 00:12:22,800 Speaker 1: five minutes of the ruling coming out, he used the 155 00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:26,600 Speaker 1: Trade Act of nineteen seventy four to impose fifteen percent 156 00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:29,080 Speaker 1: tariffs all the way around. He said, it's already tested 157 00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:34,120 Speaker 1: and approved. He won't need congressional passage of any new 158 00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:42,320 Speaker 1: law to maintain his tariff policy. It's continuing. He talked 159 00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:45,280 Speaker 1: about the Green New scam under Joe Biden's administration, the 160 00:12:45,280 --> 00:12:50,600 Speaker 1: open borders, the record setting inflation, and how Democrats, who 161 00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:56,160 Speaker 1: mostly sat on their hands all night, caused the affordability 162 00:12:56,200 --> 00:12:59,240 Speaker 1: crisis that they're talking about. They're going to fix. They're 163 00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:04,040 Speaker 1: going to make things more affordable. The President said, our 164 00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:07,880 Speaker 1: policies are working. Price of eggs, for example, down sixty percent. 165 00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:14,400 Speaker 1: Gas prices, even beef slowly coming down. I have kind 166 00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:18,400 Speaker 1: of weaned off beef anyway for health reasons and other 167 00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:20,839 Speaker 1: reasons beside the price. But the price is enough to 168 00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:24,840 Speaker 1: keep you away from the meat counter there. But even 169 00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:30,920 Speaker 1: that seems to be looking like those prices are going 170 00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:36,679 Speaker 1: to come down for the average American. He talked about Obamacare, 171 00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:39,599 Speaker 1: the Unaffordable Care Actor as I always called it, the 172 00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:44,520 Speaker 1: Unaffordable Careless Act, So it was meant for insurance companies. 173 00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:49,839 Speaker 1: But his plan is to stop money from going to 174 00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:52,640 Speaker 1: those insurance companies and directly to the people, to you 175 00:13:52,720 --> 00:13:55,600 Speaker 1: and me for our health care, to pay for our 176 00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:56,080 Speaker 1: health care. 177 00:13:57,679 --> 00:13:58,559 Speaker 2: And also. 178 00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:03,680 Speaker 1: That's some price transparency in healthcare, so you know exactly 179 00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:07,920 Speaker 1: what you're going to pay for a procedure or a visit. 180 00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:14,079 Speaker 1: And the prescription drugs under Trump rx dot gov gov 181 00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:20,240 Speaker 1: because of acquiring the president acquiring through the drug company's 182 00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:24,520 Speaker 1: most Favored Nation status for this, shouldn't America be the 183 00:14:24,560 --> 00:14:30,720 Speaker 1: most favored nation for any president? It is for Donald Trump. 184 00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:36,040 Speaker 1: He mentioned the Deli La law barring any state from 185 00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:39,760 Speaker 1: issuing any illegal aliens a commercial driver's license named after 186 00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:47,680 Speaker 1: the little girl whose life was abruptly ended. Well, actually 187 00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:52,760 Speaker 1: she survived. She was there tonight, but not the same 188 00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:57,840 Speaker 1: because of an illegal with a commercial driver's license who 189 00:14:57,920 --> 00:15:03,640 Speaker 1: couldn't speak the language, driving recklessly barreling into her stopped 190 00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:08,760 Speaker 1: car at sixty miles an hour. Talked about the Democrats 191 00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:16,400 Speaker 1: shutting down the government and basically withholding funds from the 192 00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:19,960 Speaker 1: Department of Homeland Security, and the whole reason, of course, 193 00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:26,240 Speaker 1: for that was because they wanted to stop ice racheated 194 00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:30,240 Speaker 1: to Leeb wearing her f ice button. That was a 195 00:15:30,320 --> 00:15:37,600 Speaker 1: nice look. Distracted me from looking at her mustache. He 196 00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:41,320 Speaker 1: talked about the Senate needing to pass the Same America 197 00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:50,080 Speaker 1: Act before anything else happens, before any other elections, before 198 00:15:50,120 --> 00:15:58,320 Speaker 1: any other legislation. The Democrats wouldn't stand for requiring people 199 00:15:58,400 --> 00:16:01,400 Speaker 1: to have an eye deed to vote, or prove that 200 00:16:01,400 --> 00:16:05,560 Speaker 1: they're an American citizen, and the President made a point 201 00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:10,400 Speaker 1: of saying, why wouldn't you want to do that unless 202 00:16:10,560 --> 00:16:15,720 Speaker 1: you want to cheat. He talked about the War on Fraud, 203 00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:21,040 Speaker 1: headed up by his Vice President JD. Vance, our former 204 00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:28,560 Speaker 1: senator here in Ohio. I'm kind of skeptical because the 205 00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:33,040 Speaker 1: fraud is so deep and it's so widespread, not just 206 00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:37,480 Speaker 1: in Minnesota, but states all over the country. When it 207 00:16:37,480 --> 00:16:45,440 Speaker 1: comes to Medicare and Medicaid, you name it federal tax money. 208 00:16:45,560 --> 00:16:50,080 Speaker 1: And anytime the government declares war on something, sometimes it 209 00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:53,200 Speaker 1: gets worse. I hope that's not the case this time. 210 00:16:55,440 --> 00:16:59,840 Speaker 1: He talked about the Somali pirates ransacking Minnesota, and there 211 00:16:59,880 --> 00:17:04,760 Speaker 1: was elan Omar screaming at the President in the middle 212 00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:09,280 Speaker 1: of his speech. I will say, for the most parts, 213 00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:14,159 Speaker 1: by the Democrats who showed up weren't as disrespectful as 214 00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:19,960 Speaker 1: they were last year. They weren't holding up paddles. Al Green, 215 00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:26,320 Speaker 1: the congressman from Texas who last year was escorted out 216 00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:32,080 Speaker 1: of Resident Trump's speech the Joint Session of Congress, he 217 00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:35,720 Speaker 1: left early again this year, yelling and holding up a 218 00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:39,639 Speaker 1: sign as he was escorted out of the House chamber. 219 00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:45,080 Speaker 1: President talked about deporting legals, getting them the hell out 220 00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:48,879 Speaker 1: of here fast, and said our first duty is to 221 00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:53,440 Speaker 1: protect American citizens. All the meanwhile, the Democrats in the 222 00:17:53,520 --> 00:18:00,000 Speaker 1: chamber were sitting on their hands, talked about the ridiculous 223 00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:07,479 Speaker 1: transgrooming of young people, by certain states and had a 224 00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:12,320 Speaker 1: woman there who, at the age of fourteen, was coersed 225 00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:20,840 Speaker 1: in the state of Virginia that she was actually a boy. Thankfully, 226 00:18:21,119 --> 00:18:23,800 Speaker 1: that nonsense is done, and she was returned to her 227 00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:27,399 Speaker 1: parents after a Maryland judge would not let her be 228 00:18:27,560 --> 00:18:31,000 Speaker 1: in her parents' custody because they refused to call her 229 00:18:31,240 --> 00:18:37,120 Speaker 1: a boy when she was obviously a female. At one point, 230 00:18:39,320 --> 00:18:42,800 Speaker 1: as the Democrats were just sitting there, everyone else in 231 00:18:42,800 --> 00:18:49,040 Speaker 1: the chambers standing applauding, Trump just stopped and said, these 232 00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:50,080 Speaker 1: people are crazy. 233 00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:51,840 Speaker 3: You know. 234 00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:56,520 Speaker 1: That was only very few detrimental things that President Trump 235 00:18:56,560 --> 00:19:01,000 Speaker 1: said about anybody in the room. He talked about the 236 00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:05,000 Speaker 1: spiritual rebirth and the faith in God, and then he 237 00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:09,159 Speaker 1: went to Erica Kirk and mentioned the legacy of the 238 00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:15,560 Speaker 1: martyred Charlie Kirk. Washington, d C. Murders down nearly one 239 00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:19,760 Speaker 1: hundred percent in the last year in Memphis and Louisiana, 240 00:19:19,840 --> 00:19:25,560 Speaker 1: also touting the successes there of crime surges spearheaded at 241 00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:31,160 Speaker 1: the President's direction. He mentioned Sarah Bestrom, the National Guard 242 00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:33,640 Speaker 1: member who was shot in the head and killed in Washington, 243 00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:39,160 Speaker 1: d C.

President Trump talked about in 247 00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:06,240 Speaker 1: ten months, he ended eight wars, still working on Ukraine 248 00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:10,680 Speaker 1: and Russia. He said He'll make peace wherever I can, 249 00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:14,800 Speaker 1: but never fail to confront America's enemies and those who 250 00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:19,879 Speaker 1: threaten our country. Measured the seventeen seventy six dividend for 251 00:20:19,960 --> 00:20:26,040 Speaker 1: service members and surprised at Venezuela woman who escaped that 252 00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:32,280 Speaker 1: country and Maduro's grip before he was gone, and President 253 00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:34,920 Speaker 1: Trump surprised her with her uncle who had just been 254 00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:40,960 Speaker 1: released from this prison in Caracas, but talk about a 255 00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:46,119 Speaker 1: tear jerker.

There 263 00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:23,640 Speaker 1: were heroes everywhere, and my argument is one of those 264 00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:31,639 Speaker 1: heroes is President Trump himself. He didn't go all wild eyed. 265 00:21:32,359 --> 00:21:35,119 Speaker 1: He didn't call people names, except the one time he 266 00:21:35,160 --> 00:21:37,560 Speaker 1: said that the Democrats were crazy for sitting and not 267 00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:43,480 Speaker 1: applauding something as human and heart wrenching as some of 268 00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:47,040 Speaker 1: the people he introduced during the speech.

When he died, 289 00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:12,720 Speaker 4: it just wrecked me in a way that I'd never 290 00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:16,800 Speaker 4: experienced before with any death, even with someone close to me. 291 00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:21,120 Speaker 4: And I just had a lot of questions. I went 292 00:23:21,160 --> 00:23:24,280 Speaker 4: through this period of transformation that continues to this day. 293 00:23:25,040 --> 00:23:26,919 Speaker 4: But I was just wrestling with a lot of things, 294 00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:28,639 Speaker 4: especially in the week after his death. 295 00:23:29,119 --> 00:23:30,800 Speaker 3: I was in tears. I was crying. 296 00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:32,480 Speaker 4: A lot of it had to do with the fact 297 00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:36,000 Speaker 4: that his kids were about my kid's ages, and you know, 298 00:23:36,080 --> 00:23:38,040 Speaker 4: at breakfast, I'd look at my kids and realized that 299 00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:40,960 Speaker 4: was stolen from you know, Charlie's family. 300 00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:42,800 Speaker 3: Imagine myself not being there for my kids. 301 00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:47,120 Speaker 4: I both have two little girls, right, Yeah, Well, he's 302 00:23:47,119 --> 00:23:49,320 Speaker 4: got a son and a daughter. 303 00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:50,960 Speaker 3: Three his sons younger. 304 00:23:51,280 --> 00:23:55,320 Speaker 4: I've got two daughters, and I think that I realized, 305 00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:58,000 Speaker 4: you know, I didn't realize how important Charlie was until 306 00:23:58,000 --> 00:23:59,560 Speaker 4: after he died, and I think a lot of people 307 00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:05,240 Speaker 4: had that experience. And as I dug into Charlie, I 308 00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:09,000 Speaker 4: saw somebody I admired and somebody that I wanted to be, 309 00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:13,919 Speaker 4: and I started wondering what was stopping me from not 310 00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:16,240 Speaker 4: being Charlie. There's only one Charlie. He was a great 311 00:24:16,280 --> 00:24:19,720 Speaker 4: American even in the history of the country. He'll go 312 00:24:19,720 --> 00:24:22,240 Speaker 4: down in history is one of the greatest Americans. But 313 00:24:22,680 --> 00:24:25,639 Speaker 4: he was fearless, and it was his faith and his 314 00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:30,520 Speaker 4: conviction in that that really gave him the ability to 315 00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:36,520 Speaker 4: go out and speak so confidently and lovingly to his opposition. 316 00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:39,520 Speaker 3: And I wanted to get to that place myself. 317 00:24:39,560 --> 00:24:42,359 Speaker 4: So I started putting faith first and realizing that that 318 00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:44,760 Speaker 4: couldn't be a second, third, or distant, you know, fourth, 319 00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:46,480 Speaker 4: or fifth in my priorities. 320 00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:50,840 Speaker 3: And it just changed me. I wanted to be a 321 00:24:50,840 --> 00:24:51,439 Speaker 3: better person. 322 00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:57,800 Speaker 4: And I was obviously alarmed by the irrefutable evidence and 323 00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:00,159 Speaker 4: reality that we had a left wing violence problem in 324 00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:03,639 Speaker 4: this country and nobody seemed to be addressing it. 325 00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:07,360 Speaker 3: And I dug into. 326 00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:10,440 Speaker 4: Why the left is violent, how they get to this point, 327 00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:12,359 Speaker 4: how we got to a point in this country where 328 00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:17,320 Speaker 4: a leading conservative boys could be gunned down for celebrating 329 00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:21,000 Speaker 4: the First Amendment. And so this book is an autopsy, 330 00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:24,399 Speaker 4: if you will, of this nation in light of his 331 00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:28,040 Speaker 4: assassination and where we go from the here and how 332 00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:31,199 Speaker 4: we can you know, change and transform this country. And 333 00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:35,000 Speaker 4: Charlie Kirk provided an exemplary model for how we can 334 00:25:35,040 --> 00:25:39,040 Speaker 4: transform ourselves to transform the country. You know, people shouldn't 335 00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:41,320 Speaker 4: be looking for another Charlie Kirk to rise to save them. 336 00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:43,879 Speaker 4: The ain't a look in the mirror, and you know 337 00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:45,600 Speaker 4: a lot of people are looking for a superhero. But 338 00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:48,040 Speaker 4: he's staring back at him. It's you very good. 339 00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:53,480 Speaker 1: And President Trump, of course making the reference to how 340 00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:59,199 Speaker 1: we are seeing a rebirth of spiritual belief and belief 341 00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:02,119 Speaker 1: in God in this country and people, especially young people 342 00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:07,200 Speaker 1: coming back to Christ or coming back to faith that 343 00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:11,040 Speaker 1: we haven't seen in quite a while in this country. 344 00:26:11,119 --> 00:26:13,280 Speaker 1: And I think that was one of the high points 345 00:26:13,280 --> 00:26:17,399 Speaker 1: of the speech tonight. What struck you particularly, drew about 346 00:26:17,720 --> 00:26:19,080 Speaker 1: President's speech. 347 00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:26,680 Speaker 4: Well, the first thing that struck me broadly is that 348 00:26:27,760 --> 00:26:31,679 Speaker 4: we saw Trump's arrangement syndrome on full display, and we 349 00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:35,040 Speaker 4: saw how diabolical it is and what I mean by 350 00:26:35,080 --> 00:26:38,000 Speaker 4: that is Trump's arrangement syndrome. 351 00:26:38,040 --> 00:26:39,840 Speaker 3: These Democrats that sat. 352 00:26:41,400 --> 00:26:47,159 Speaker 4: Repeatedly when everyone should have stood unified because it was 353 00:26:47,200 --> 00:26:49,720 Speaker 4: objectively the right thing to do, they chose to sit. 354 00:26:50,119 --> 00:26:54,760 Speaker 4: Democrats sat when the men's hockey team was celebrated, They 355 00:26:54,800 --> 00:27:00,639 Speaker 4: sat when Arena Zurutzka's mom was pointed out audience. I mean, 356 00:27:00,680 --> 00:27:03,040 Speaker 4: they sat during all of it. The only time they 357 00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:07,600 Speaker 4: stood together was, you know, when it was mentioned that, 358 00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:10,399 Speaker 4: you know, the Supreme Court made a ridiculous decision to 359 00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:12,720 Speaker 4: strike down his tariffs. 360 00:27:12,920 --> 00:27:15,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know what for this President Drew, I thought 361 00:27:15,600 --> 00:27:21,240 Speaker 1: he showed incredible restraint, as per the the Trump modus operandi, 362 00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:26,720 Speaker 1: usually in a situation where he obviously was disappointed and 363 00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:32,800 Speaker 1: felt like the whole Trump economic policy was being threatened 364 00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:35,520 Speaker 1: by this Supreme Court decision. But he just called it 365 00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:38,760 Speaker 1: unfortunate a couple of times, and then he moved right 366 00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:41,520 Speaker 1: to And this is a great thing about this president. 367 00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:46,440 Speaker 1: Within you know, forty five minutes, he'd reimposed all these 368 00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:50,520 Speaker 1: tariffs using another avenue. And I'm sure that he always 369 00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:53,760 Speaker 1: had that in mind in case they ruled against him. 370 00:27:54,520 --> 00:27:57,199 Speaker 3: Yeah, look, I mean it was it was a crazy ruling, and. 371 00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:02,280 Speaker 4: Kavanaugh and Clarence really led the way Alito too in 372 00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:05,399 Speaker 4: their descent on explaining how absurd it was. But you know, 373 00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:09,920 Speaker 4: cavan on his descent, he basically said, Okay, whatever, here 374 00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:12,040 Speaker 4: are the statutes you can use to do this. If 375 00:28:12,040 --> 00:28:16,199 Speaker 4: they're going to rule this emergency that you have been 376 00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:18,640 Speaker 4: using previously, if they're going to strike this down, well 377 00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:21,359 Speaker 4: there's no reason you can't do it using other things. 378 00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:23,560 Speaker 4: And so that was kind of an amazing step by 379 00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:27,400 Speaker 4: Kavanaughs to just simply provide the solution to him as well. So, yeah, 380 00:28:27,400 --> 00:28:29,680 Speaker 4: I mean, this wasn't a big loss for the president. Actually, 381 00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:30,119 Speaker 4: I mean. 382 00:28:30,800 --> 00:28:35,120 Speaker 1: No, but the mainstream media, I mean ABC News, which 383 00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:38,840 Speaker 1: is our network that we use here at seven hundred 384 00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:42,640 Speaker 1: WLWA ORL they're like doing a happy dance over this 385 00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:46,600 Speaker 1: ruling and saying, oh, the tariffs are over. It's like, no, 386 00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:52,120 Speaker 1: you people don't understand or have no legal knowledge of 387 00:28:52,240 --> 00:28:56,240 Speaker 1: what is available to the president as far as trade goes. 388 00:28:56,800 --> 00:29:00,000 Speaker 4: So well, look, I think probably one of those powerful 389 00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:04,920 Speaker 4: moments for me was when he invited everyone in Congress 390 00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:08,560 Speaker 4: to stand if they believed that it was the responsibility 391 00:29:08,560 --> 00:29:13,040 Speaker 4: of the government to protect American citizens first over legal aliens, 392 00:29:13,480 --> 00:29:16,959 Speaker 4: and every single Democrat remained seated, and that pretty much 393 00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:19,880 Speaker 4: set the tone for the speech and for the crisis 394 00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:23,600 Speaker 4: the nation faces presently because the Democrat Party as it 395 00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:27,280 Speaker 4: exists does not care about the American people, and Trump's 396 00:29:27,320 --> 00:29:30,280 Speaker 4: arrangement syndrome should be classified as an official mental. 397 00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:33,360 Speaker 2: The DSM four or whatever. 398 00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:37,400 Speaker 3: The sl Yeah, yeah, yeah. 399 00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:40,280 Speaker 4: So yeah, you know that that was That was the 400 00:29:40,320 --> 00:29:42,400 Speaker 4: main takeaway from me. But there, you know, even early 401 00:29:42,440 --> 00:29:45,800 Speaker 4: on Garry Jeff, when I saw Trump, when you know, 402 00:29:45,840 --> 00:29:48,040 Speaker 4: they they always announced, you know, the interests of the 403 00:29:48,040 --> 00:29:50,560 Speaker 4: President United States, and he walked in. You know, I 404 00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:53,720 Speaker 4: realized something and I hope people appreciate this president over 405 00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:57,239 Speaker 4: the next number of years, because you know, we're going 406 00:29:57,280 --> 00:29:59,600 Speaker 4: to really miss him when he's gone. He walked in 407 00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:04,480 Speaker 4: there and he was the biggest alpha male in the room. 408 00:30:04,520 --> 00:30:06,480 Speaker 4: And it's not because he was the president. It's because 409 00:30:06,480 --> 00:30:09,560 Speaker 4: he's Donald Trump. And that's an important distinction to notice, 410 00:30:09,600 --> 00:30:13,080 Speaker 4: because you know, somebody like Barack Obama was a nobody 411 00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:16,240 Speaker 4: and he still is at nobody. You know, his importance 412 00:30:16,360 --> 00:30:18,960 Speaker 4: was conferred only because he was like a president of 413 00:30:18,960 --> 00:30:21,960 Speaker 4: the United States. Donald Trump is important regardless of the 414 00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:24,480 Speaker 4: fact of him being president or not, because that's the 415 00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:26,840 Speaker 4: kind of gravitas that he has because of his life 416 00:30:26,920 --> 00:30:32,760 Speaker 4: experience and his success, and and it's gonna be I felt, 417 00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:35,000 Speaker 4: I felt, I felt a little bit somber and sad 418 00:30:35,040 --> 00:30:37,840 Speaker 4: at that moment, because you know, we've only got him 419 00:30:37,840 --> 00:30:39,600 Speaker 4: for a couple more years in office, and. 420 00:30:41,120 --> 00:30:43,280 Speaker 3: You know, we'll we'll, we'll have other leaders. 421 00:30:43,320 --> 00:30:46,360 Speaker 4: But you know, this is a once in a lifetime 422 00:30:47,840 --> 00:30:52,240 Speaker 4: historic you know figure that I just don't think people 423 00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:55,680 Speaker 4: are taking enough time, kind of naturally the way we 424 00:30:55,720 --> 00:30:59,200 Speaker 4: approach life to really recognize and appreciate it. 425 00:30:59,240 --> 00:30:59,400 Speaker 3: You know. 426 00:30:59,560 --> 00:31:02,960 Speaker 4: It reminded Gary Jeff when I went off to Pepperdine University. Yeah, 427 00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:05,800 Speaker 4: and I went there mostly I had an acting scholarship, 428 00:31:05,800 --> 00:31:07,920 Speaker 4: but I went there mainly because of the view of 429 00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:10,720 Speaker 4: the Pacific Ocean from campus. It was every year rated 430 00:31:10,760 --> 00:31:14,440 Speaker 4: the most beautiful campus in America. And you know, from 431 00:31:14,480 --> 00:31:17,200 Speaker 4: basically every point on campus you can see the beautiful 432 00:31:17,240 --> 00:31:22,440 Speaker 4: Pacific Ocean and those white caps laughing against the sandy shore. 433 00:31:22,920 --> 00:31:25,480 Speaker 4: And I try and say, I try and stop periodically 434 00:31:25,560 --> 00:31:28,520 Speaker 4: just stare out and be grateful. But inevitably, you know, 435 00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:31,040 Speaker 4: even if you stare at the mona ease every day. 436 00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:34,440 Speaker 4: It kind of doles over time and you get used 437 00:31:34,440 --> 00:31:36,760 Speaker 4: to it, and I don't want to get used to 438 00:31:36,800 --> 00:31:40,640 Speaker 4: it because I realize now that you know, our time 439 00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:43,080 Speaker 4: with Trump is limited, and we've never had somebody who's 440 00:31:43,120 --> 00:31:45,160 Speaker 4: just such an audacious spider on our behalf. 441 00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:46,760 Speaker 2: I would agree with that. 442 00:31:46,840 --> 00:31:49,360 Speaker 1: The thing that struck me most about the speech besides 443 00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:52,000 Speaker 1: the great substance that was there, and it was packed 444 00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:57,680 Speaker 1: with substance, it was packed with you know, American patriotic 445 00:31:57,760 --> 00:32:01,480 Speaker 1: moments and a lot of optimism for what's ahead and 446 00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:04,600 Speaker 1: what has been you know, where we've come from, from 447 00:32:04,600 --> 00:32:06,840 Speaker 1: where we were to where we are now in just 448 00:32:06,920 --> 00:32:10,440 Speaker 1: one year, Drew. But the thing that struck me the 449 00:32:10,440 --> 00:32:14,440 Speaker 1: most about the speech was the fact that President Trump 450 00:32:14,480 --> 00:32:17,680 Speaker 1: stayed on message for the most part. You know, there 451 00:32:17,720 --> 00:32:20,800 Speaker 1: was no straying away like we've seen him do other places. 452 00:32:21,080 --> 00:32:24,320 Speaker 1: And when President Trump stays on message because of that 453 00:32:24,400 --> 00:32:29,320 Speaker 1: gravitas that you mentioned, because of his charisma, in my lifetime, 454 00:32:29,800 --> 00:32:34,120 Speaker 1: only Ronald Reagan exceeds him as a communicator. He is 455 00:32:34,160 --> 00:32:38,280 Speaker 1: an incredible communicator when he stays on message, I think 456 00:32:38,400 --> 00:32:41,600 Speaker 1: is a great communicator. When he drifts off message, and 457 00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:45,640 Speaker 1: just is having fun. But for that setting, for that 458 00:32:45,760 --> 00:32:47,920 Speaker 1: speech tonight, he was brilliant. 459 00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:52,560 Speaker 4: So it's funny say that because I think three weeks 460 00:32:52,560 --> 00:32:55,080 Speaker 4: ago I had new Gingrich on my podcast and I 461 00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:59,640 Speaker 4: interviewed him for about half an hour. And one are 462 00:32:59,640 --> 00:33:01,920 Speaker 4: the things he said to me which left me thinking 463 00:33:01,960 --> 00:33:04,360 Speaker 4: and pondering for a long time, especially even at night 464 00:33:04,400 --> 00:33:06,720 Speaker 4: when I was going to sleep, was he said, you know, 465 00:33:06,760 --> 00:33:11,200 Speaker 4: the two greatest communicators in my lifetime are Democrats, former Democrats, 466 00:33:11,280 --> 00:33:13,479 Speaker 4: Ronald Reagan and Donald Trump. 467 00:33:14,360 --> 00:33:16,320 Speaker 3: And I thought a lot about that. You know, why 468 00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:16,880 Speaker 3: is that true? 469 00:33:16,880 --> 00:33:18,720 Speaker 4: Because one of the problems we have in the Republican Party, 470 00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:22,040 Speaker 4: of course even to this day, is that, you know, 471 00:33:22,280 --> 00:33:26,040 Speaker 4: historically Republicans aren't great communicators, right, I mean, our our 472 00:33:26,120 --> 00:33:31,400 Speaker 4: message is strong, our policies are rooted in truths, and 473 00:33:31,480 --> 00:33:36,040 Speaker 4: so they do deliver positive results, but too few are 474 00:33:36,080 --> 00:33:40,000 Speaker 4: able to articulate them. And for new to say that, 475 00:33:40,080 --> 00:33:42,440 Speaker 4: who I admire, I mean he put together, you know, 476 00:33:42,520 --> 00:33:45,240 Speaker 4: one of the greatest coalitions in our lifetimes. 477 00:33:45,360 --> 00:33:48,640 Speaker 3: Right, For him to say that, I thought, wow. 478 00:33:48,680 --> 00:33:53,320 Speaker 4: And it's because that I think they understand both sides, right, 479 00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:57,160 Speaker 4: they understand the let's policies and you know, if you've 480 00:33:57,160 --> 00:33:59,680 Speaker 4: been a Democrat and you freed yourself, it's like the apostle. 481 00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:00,800 Speaker 3: Paul. Think we've talked about this. 482 00:34:00,840 --> 00:34:02,720 Speaker 4: Many years ago, even on your show, bringing up every 483 00:34:02,760 --> 00:34:05,160 Speaker 4: now and then because it's a great example. You know, 484 00:34:05,240 --> 00:34:08,720 Speaker 4: the greatest individuals who make converts to liberty are people 485 00:34:08,719 --> 00:34:12,640 Speaker 4: who were once part of those movements. And Trump was 486 00:34:12,640 --> 00:34:15,960 Speaker 4: maybe less a part of the Democrat Party than Reagan was. 487 00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:19,480 Speaker 4: I mean, Reagan was you know, an avowed you know democrat, 488 00:34:19,600 --> 00:34:20,560 Speaker 4: you know, is an actor for. 489 00:34:20,520 --> 00:34:21,080 Speaker 3: A long time. 490 00:34:21,239 --> 00:34:25,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, but they understood it, and they they and they 491 00:34:25,080 --> 00:34:28,160 Speaker 4: had a conviction, right, conviction comes from abandoning that past. 492 00:34:29,320 --> 00:34:32,719 Speaker 1: Drew, this is a wonderful conversation and I hope we 493 00:34:32,719 --> 00:34:35,520 Speaker 1: we'll have many more to come. I got a break now, 494 00:34:35,840 --> 00:34:38,120 Speaker 1: Remember to get Drew Allen's book for Christ and Country, 495 00:34:38,120 --> 00:34:39,600 Speaker 1: The Martyrdom of Charlie Kirk. 496 00:34:39,719 --> 00:34:42,000 Speaker 2: And thank you and God bless you for your time tonight. 497 00:34:41,840 --> 00:34:44,600 Speaker 3: Drew, God bless you man.
