1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,920 Speaker 1: Six seven two six six sixty eight sixty eight is 2 00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:07,520 Speaker 1: the number. Okay, everything is on the table this morning. 3 00:00:08,200 --> 00:00:14,160 Speaker 1: Chuck Schumer now livid eight Democrats to be technical, seven Democrats, 4 00:00:14,560 --> 00:00:18,479 Speaker 1: one independent Senator Angus King from Maine who caucuses with 5 00:00:18,560 --> 00:00:22,400 Speaker 1: the Democrats, so eight in total have now bolted. They 6 00:00:22,400 --> 00:00:27,040 Speaker 1: have defected, and they voted with the Republicans late last 7 00:00:27,120 --> 00:00:31,760 Speaker 1: night until early this morning to end the filibuster, effectively 8 00:00:31,880 --> 00:00:34,919 Speaker 1: ending the shutdown. It will take a few more days 9 00:00:35,400 --> 00:00:39,400 Speaker 1: for the government to technically reopen, but in essence, now 10 00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:44,520 Speaker 1: the shutdown is over. They will pass a continuing resolution 11 00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:49,360 Speaker 1: that will fund the entire government until January thirty first 12 00:00:49,360 --> 00:00:52,600 Speaker 1: of next year. And they're going to pass it looks 13 00:00:52,680 --> 00:00:55,760 Speaker 1: like what are called a minibus, not an omnibus, but 14 00:00:55,840 --> 00:01:02,480 Speaker 1: a minibus, three funding bills that will pay the military 15 00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:09,640 Speaker 1: and military construction and veterans affairs to the legislative branch. 16 00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:14,240 Speaker 1: So all these staffers and aids, all these people in Congress, yep, 17 00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:16,480 Speaker 1: they're going to take care of their own people. They're 18 00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:19,240 Speaker 1: all going to get paid all of next year. And 19 00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:24,240 Speaker 1: the United States Department of Agriculture, why because that's where 20 00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:27,360 Speaker 1: the food stamps come from. That's the snap comes from 21 00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:32,880 Speaker 1: the USDA, So snap Wick. All of these programs will 22 00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:37,039 Speaker 1: be fully funded until October of next year. That's the 23 00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:40,120 Speaker 1: fiscal year. It's October first in Congress. That's how they 24 00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:44,440 Speaker 1: do the fiscal year October to October, so it will 25 00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:48,240 Speaker 1: all these three will be funded all the way until 26 00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:54,520 Speaker 1: October of next year. No extensions on the Obamacare subsidies. Nothing, 27 00:01:55,680 --> 00:02:00,480 Speaker 1: No free health care for illegals. Nothing, No circum decisions 28 00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:03,680 Speaker 1: as I said in Zambia, or gay rights in the 29 00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:09,639 Speaker 1: Baltic States, or transgender surgeries in Serbia. No massive liberal 30 00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:16,040 Speaker 1: media bailout. They wanted twelve billion for failing liberal outlets 31 00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:21,280 Speaker 1: that are losing money like NPR, PBS and others. Nothing, 32 00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:27,040 Speaker 1: NATA zero. The only thing they got was that John 33 00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:31,160 Speaker 1: Thune will give them a vote just to vote on 34 00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:37,360 Speaker 1: extending the ACA subsidies the Affordable Care Act sometime before 35 00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:41,160 Speaker 1: the second week of December. But the Republicans say they 36 00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 1: will not vote for it, meaning it's going to go down. 37 00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:51,200 Speaker 1: So in essence, the Democrats held the American people hostage. 38 00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:57,160 Speaker 1: They shut the government down for forty days. They imposed 39 00:02:57,280 --> 00:03:03,560 Speaker 1: immense pain, suffering, and misery upon the entire country, and 40 00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:08,040 Speaker 1: in the end it was all for nothing. They got nothing, 41 00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:13,640 Speaker 1: and the result was a complete and utter failure and 42 00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:18,840 Speaker 1: a complete and utter defeat. Dan in Plymouth, Thanks for 43 00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:20,680 Speaker 1: holding Dan, and welcome. 44 00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:24,480 Speaker 2: Hey Jeff, I'm going to throw another log on the bio. Yes, 45 00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:28,280 Speaker 2: may disagree or disagree, but I totally agree with you. 46 00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:32,840 Speaker 2: This is a total capitulation by the Democrats to President Trump. 47 00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:38,120 Speaker 2: But what remains is the high price and cost of 48 00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:41,080 Speaker 2: private health insurance. You see it, I'm sure you see 49 00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:44,120 Speaker 2: it in your pay stub. I pay over four hundred 50 00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:48,160 Speaker 2: dollars every two weeks for two adults and a young buck, 51 00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:52,640 Speaker 2: my son who just graduated college, and it's in You 52 00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:55,160 Speaker 2: have co pays, You've got detuctables. The only thing I 53 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:58,960 Speaker 2: get for free is a is a colonoscopy. Ironically enough, so, 54 00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:02,760 Speaker 2: I think what President than Trump must do is, in 55 00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:07,440 Speaker 2: my opinion, get the risk pool of health insurance. The 56 00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:12,440 Speaker 2: OLDU are the high the risks. Perhaps expand medicare to 57 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:17,760 Speaker 2: the generation that elected him. It was our generation, Jeff, 58 00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:24,200 Speaker 2: generation X that elected Trump in twenty twenty four, expanded 59 00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:27,680 Speaker 2: to probably fifty five years of age. Get that risk 60 00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:31,640 Speaker 2: pool out of the private health insurance. And I think 61 00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:34,719 Speaker 2: that would cement his legacy and perhaps stop the Democrats 62 00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:36,520 Speaker 2: in taking over next year. 63 00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:40,680 Speaker 1: Wow do you think of that? I didn't even think 64 00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:43,839 Speaker 1: of that. That is very very interesting. Dan. Let me 65 00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:47,400 Speaker 1: ask you this, what do you think of Trump's proposal? 66 00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:52,440 Speaker 1: It's actually Senator from Louisiana, Bill Cassidy, who's a physician 67 00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:56,159 Speaker 1: or whatever, was a physician. This is really ultimately his 68 00:04:56,279 --> 00:05:00,000 Speaker 1: original idea. He's the brainchild of it. But Trump loves it. 69 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:02,279 Speaker 1: He's jumped all over it, and there are even some 70 00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:05,560 Speaker 1: Democrats now who say, you know what, I may be 71 00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:08,479 Speaker 1: willing to take a look at this, which is the 72 00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:12,840 Speaker 1: three hundred billion dollars, which is an unbelievable amount of 73 00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:18,120 Speaker 1: money that Obamacare is shoveling to these big insurance companies 74 00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:23,680 Speaker 1: to keep these premiums, you know, relatively reasonable that Trump 75 00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:26,320 Speaker 1: is saying. It's a massive payoff. They're stealing a lot 76 00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:31,120 Speaker 1: of the money. It's providing garbage healthcare. It's the most 77 00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:35,880 Speaker 1: inefficient way to fund the healthcare system ever, he says, 78 00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:39,800 Speaker 1: cut out the middleman completely, take the three hundred billion, 79 00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:44,520 Speaker 1: and literally give people who are on Obamacare a check, 80 00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:48,440 Speaker 1: a direct check right to their health savings. Account and 81 00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:51,159 Speaker 1: it's going to be you know, thousands, thousands and thousands 82 00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:54,760 Speaker 1: and thousands of dollars and you get the healthcare plan 83 00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:56,120 Speaker 1: that's best for you and your family. 84 00:05:56,720 --> 00:05:59,919 Speaker 3: What say you, Jeff, I thought of that. I'd like 85 00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:05,799 Speaker 3: anything that mixes up changes the system. My only fear 86 00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:08,520 Speaker 3: is that people that get that money, and you've got 87 00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:11,599 Speaker 3: to trust people. I understand that they may not use 88 00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:15,919 Speaker 3: those funds for healthcare. And then you and I, the 89 00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:19,719 Speaker 3: responsible ones, are going to be flipping the bill, paying 90 00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:21,560 Speaker 3: the bill when we go to the hospital because our 91 00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:24,920 Speaker 3: insurance is going to be paying for their non coverage. 92 00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:28,760 Speaker 1: That's another good point. Yeah, they know they would have 93 00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:31,960 Speaker 1: to provide safeguards that the money can only be used, 94 00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:35,479 Speaker 1: you know, for healthcare. Or six one seven two six 95 00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:40,400 Speaker 1: six sixty eight sixty eight is the number. Okay. I 96 00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:42,480 Speaker 1: know we've talked about it a little bit in the 97 00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:46,320 Speaker 1: last hour and it's not technically the pole question of 98 00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:49,240 Speaker 1: the day. The pole question is about Chuck Schumer and 99 00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:51,760 Speaker 1: do you think he's now going to retire and basically 100 00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:55,839 Speaker 1: to avoid a primary and a crushing defeat by AOC 101 00:06:56,120 --> 00:07:02,200 Speaker 1: Alexandria Fidel Castro Cortes, or do you think he's going 102 00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:05,880 Speaker 1: to try and run for reelection and good luck. But 103 00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:09,080 Speaker 1: we did a poll question a couple weeks ago on 104 00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:14,400 Speaker 1: the filibuster and should we end the filibuster? And most 105 00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:16,760 Speaker 1: of you in this great audience, and like me at 106 00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:19,880 Speaker 1: the time, said no, we shouldn't end it. Why well, 107 00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:22,600 Speaker 1: you know we're gonna need it when the Democrats come 108 00:07:22,640 --> 00:07:28,400 Speaker 1: back to power one day after Tuesday's election. After now 109 00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:31,200 Speaker 1: what we've seen the Democrats, what they're capable of, what 110 00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:36,520 Speaker 1: they truly want to do after this punishing forty days shutdown? 111 00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:43,200 Speaker 1: Is Trump right? Is it time to terminate the filibuster? 112 00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:45,960 Speaker 1: And so I want to ask all of you in 113 00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:49,360 Speaker 1: Kooner Country whether you're you know, keeping your fore keeping 114 00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:53,560 Speaker 1: the filibuster or you're for nuking the filibuster. I want 115 00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:57,120 Speaker 1: to hear from you. Tell me why you believe we 116 00:07:57,120 --> 00:08:01,960 Speaker 1: should either keep it or kill it. Two sixty six 117 00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:05,520 Speaker 1: sixty eight sixty eight is the number you can also 118 00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:09,720 Speaker 1: text the Kooner Man seven zero four seven zero seven 119 00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:14,760 Speaker 1: zero four to seven zero. This is from six one 120 00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:21,600 Speaker 1: seven Jeff. There is no question the Democrats caved on 121 00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:25,440 Speaker 1: the shutdown, and this is a big victory for President 122 00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:29,720 Speaker 1: Trump and a crushing defeat for Chuck Schumer. But the 123 00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:33,640 Speaker 1: question I have, Jeff is a simple one. The Dems 124 00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:40,640 Speaker 1: could have done this deal thirty five days ago. In 125 00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:46,480 Speaker 1: other words, this was purely political. They hurt people for 126 00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:53,320 Speaker 1: nothing other than politics. I can't disagree. You're completely right. 127 00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:56,400 Speaker 1: In fact, you're a thousand, not one hundred. You're a 128 00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:59,920 Speaker 1: thousand percent correct. That's the question the country's going to 129 00:08:59,960 --> 00:09:03,280 Speaker 1: be asking this deal could have been done? What thirty 130 00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:05,840 Speaker 1: five days You could have done this deal forty days ago. 131 00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:08,440 Speaker 1: It's a forty day shutdown. You could have done this 132 00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:13,640 Speaker 1: deal forty days ago, thirty nine days ago. So in 133 00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:18,240 Speaker 1: the end, this was all political. So you put us 134 00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:24,520 Speaker 1: through this suffering and misery for nothing, for cheap politics, 135 00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:29,520 Speaker 1: to pander to the radical left wing base of your party. 136 00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:36,040 Speaker 1: Ay ya yai, seriously, a ya yai, Jim in the 137 00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:39,760 Speaker 1: state of Illinois. Thanks for holding, Jim, and welcome. 138 00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:47,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, go ahead, you just I just wanted to say 139 00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:51,720 Speaker 4: go ahead. I mean in the filibuster by all means. 140 00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:56,440 Speaker 4: But we have to realize the power that we would 141 00:09:56,480 --> 00:09:58,679 Speaker 4: be giving to the rhinos. 142 00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:04,120 Speaker 1: You're saying if we end the filibuster with our. 143 00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:08,439 Speaker 4: Thin margin of you know the number of votes that 144 00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:12,840 Speaker 4: we have. It would take just a handful of rhinos 145 00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:16,880 Speaker 4: to do what rhinos do. 146 00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:24,120 Speaker 1: You know, well, Jim, look, that's an excellent point. Let 147 00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:27,520 Speaker 1: me just let me ask you this. But they already 148 00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:30,880 Speaker 1: do what they do write in other words, like they 149 00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:35,000 Speaker 1: already sabotage us. At least I'm just saying from just 150 00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:37,040 Speaker 1: as Trump's argument, and you tell me what you say, 151 00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:40,760 Speaker 1: at least now we don't have to reach sixty. We 152 00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:45,199 Speaker 1: don't give that power to the Democrats. So yeah, we've 153 00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:48,280 Speaker 1: got to still deal with these treacherous Judas rhinos. Jim 154 00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:51,720 Speaker 1: and Illinois. You're right, But at least now, if I 155 00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:54,680 Speaker 1: want to get something done, I just need fifty plus one. 156 00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:59,440 Speaker 1: I don't need sixty. And on fifty plus one, Trump 157 00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:02,720 Speaker 1: thinks I can get you the voter ID national law. 158 00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:08,360 Speaker 1: We can end mail in balloting. We can end, as 159 00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:11,520 Speaker 1: he put it, finally, end men in women's sports and 160 00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:15,480 Speaker 1: women locker rooms. He ran down the whole list. We 161 00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:20,240 Speaker 1: can clean up our elections. We can really start doing 162 00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:25,760 Speaker 1: mass deportations with almost no resistance from judges. We can 163 00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:29,520 Speaker 1: have you know, legislation backed by Congress. In other words, 164 00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:32,440 Speaker 1: he says, we can fix all of the problems in 165 00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:37,679 Speaker 1: the country and enact a Maga agenda and clean up 166 00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:41,920 Speaker 1: our corrupt elections and end voter fraud, because if we don't, 167 00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:47,120 Speaker 1: the Democrats will come back, and then, Jim, they will 168 00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:52,559 Speaker 1: end that filibuster, and unlike the Rhinos, they are thickest thieves, 169 00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:56,440 Speaker 1: and before you know it, the Supreme Court will be packed. Jim, 170 00:11:56,960 --> 00:11:59,960 Speaker 1: You're gonna have new states like Puerto Rico and Washington DC. 171 00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:03,640 Speaker 1: You're gonna have the end of the electoral college. You're 172 00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:07,120 Speaker 1: gonna have amnesty for illegal aliens, and god knows what 173 00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:12,160 Speaker 1: else these people are gonna conceive, probably socialized medicine. In 174 00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:16,120 Speaker 1: other words, basically, Trump is saying, either we end the 175 00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:20,120 Speaker 1: filibuster or they end the filibuster. If we end it, 176 00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:22,680 Speaker 1: at least we have a chance at cleaning up the 177 00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:27,160 Speaker 1: country's problems and keeping the Democrats at bay prevent them 178 00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:32,319 Speaker 1: from stealing future elections. If we wait, then we know 179 00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:37,520 Speaker 1: they're gonna end it, and then they're gonna steal elections forever. 180 00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:39,000 Speaker 1: What say you, Jim. 181 00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:43,199 Speaker 4: Exactly ended I said, do it, you know, from day one, 182 00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:47,240 Speaker 4: almost But I'm saying, we absolutely need to find a 183 00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:51,400 Speaker 4: way to deal with Collins and Murkowski and you know 184 00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:56,560 Speaker 4: Bryan Paul and of course McConnell's not long long on 185 00:12:56,600 --> 00:12:59,199 Speaker 4: the tooth, but you know, he's gone. He's gone in 186 00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:03,800 Speaker 4: a couple of years, I think. But that's enough to 187 00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:07,400 Speaker 4: really throw a wrench into everything unless we find a 188 00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:09,080 Speaker 4: way to deal with them. 189 00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:12,280 Speaker 1: Jim, do you have any suggestions on how to deal 190 00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:12,640 Speaker 1: with them? 191 00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:17,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, open their folders and auder them and you know, 192 00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:18,959 Speaker 4: give them, give them something to think about. 193 00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:30,080 Speaker 1: In other words, Jim, do it the Chicago way. Jim, 194 00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:34,280 Speaker 1: thank you very much for that call. I appreciate it. No, look, 195 00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:37,480 Speaker 1: I mean that's the Achilles heel of the Republican Party 196 00:13:37,520 --> 00:13:42,040 Speaker 1: that it's the rhinos, there's no question. And Trump has 197 00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:45,520 Speaker 1: been complaining about this day one. He complained about it 198 00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:49,280 Speaker 1: his entire first term and ever since he got into office. 199 00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:53,480 Speaker 1: He's like, boy, they love to stab their own. They 200 00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:56,360 Speaker 1: they it's like they live to stab their own, these rhinos. 201 00:13:57,520 --> 00:14:01,880 Speaker 1: Derek in Brighton, Thanks for a hold, Derek, and welcome. 202 00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:06,040 Speaker 5: Love your show. 203 00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:07,160 Speaker 1: Thank you, Derek. 204 00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:13,280 Speaker 5: My question is is you were saying earlier, you know, 205 00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:17,800 Speaker 5: if you get rid of this nuclear option, this filmbuster, 206 00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:23,800 Speaker 5: you know, if Trump gets rid of it, he can 207 00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:27,800 Speaker 5: accomplish what he needs to accomplish in the short time 208 00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:31,040 Speaker 5: he has, which is a little wonder, I don't know, 209 00:14:31,280 --> 00:14:38,640 Speaker 5: thirty eight months to clean up voter id and do 210 00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:43,680 Speaker 5: all these other things. But if you get rid of 211 00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:46,560 Speaker 5: it and the Democrats get back in power and you 212 00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:51,040 Speaker 5: said eventually they will, aren't they going to do exactly 213 00:14:51,160 --> 00:14:56,120 Speaker 5: what you said they're going to do. They want to 214 00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:59,840 Speaker 5: make Puerto Rico and Washington the fifty first and fifty 215 00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:03,480 Speaker 5: at the state they want to and then they'll have 216 00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:10,200 Speaker 5: fifty four more US senators they have a permanent majority 217 00:15:10,360 --> 00:15:14,480 Speaker 5: to the Republicans fifty, so they can get rid of 218 00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:19,360 Speaker 5: the you know, electoral college and go by popular vote 219 00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:23,640 Speaker 5: and not give the other state to stay and who 220 00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:27,080 Speaker 5: they want to elect for president, you know, give the 221 00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:32,640 Speaker 5: legal aliens, make them citizens, you give them citizenship. How 222 00:15:32,760 --> 00:15:35,200 Speaker 5: is that going to help the Republicans? And Trump wants 223 00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:38,760 Speaker 5: to get rid of that nuclear option, isn't it going 224 00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:40,840 Speaker 5: to have the opposite effect? 225 00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:44,880 Speaker 1: Well, I mean you're right in a sense. There is 226 00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:48,000 Speaker 1: a risk in the sense that now the Trump you know, 227 00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:52,040 Speaker 1: the Republicans will do it, then the Democrats when they 228 00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:54,480 Speaker 1: come back to power, will say, hey, look at us. 229 00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:58,720 Speaker 1: You Republicans made the new rules. It's no longer sixty 230 00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:01,600 Speaker 1: votes that's needed to pass these big pieces of legislation. 231 00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:05,640 Speaker 1: It's fifty plus one six one seven two six six 232 00:16:06,040 --> 00:16:09,280 Speaker 1: sixty eight. Sixty eight is the number. You can also 233 00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:13,120 Speaker 1: text us seven zero four seven zero seven zero four 234 00:16:13,240 --> 00:16:15,520 Speaker 1: seven zero. Okay. I want to go right back to 235 00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:20,640 Speaker 1: Derek in Brighton. Look, Derek makes a very very good point, 236 00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:23,560 Speaker 1: which is and I don't want to put words in 237 00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:27,080 Speaker 1: your mouth, Derek, but essentially your argument is, look, if 238 00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:29,840 Speaker 1: the Republicans blow up the filibuster, if they end the 239 00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:34,360 Speaker 1: filibuster as Trump is calling for, well the next time 240 00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:38,760 Speaker 1: the Democrats come to power, you've just laid the groundwork 241 00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:43,000 Speaker 1: for them to come in and do everything you're warning 242 00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:45,600 Speaker 1: they're going to do, which is all they need is 243 00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:50,360 Speaker 1: fifty votes plus one. Pact thee Supreme Court, abolish the 244 00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:56,240 Speaker 1: electoral college at Puerto Rico and Washington, DC, as states, 245 00:16:57,240 --> 00:17:02,440 Speaker 1: give amnesty to illegal aliens, a ram down socialized medicine, 246 00:17:02,520 --> 00:17:06,919 Speaker 1: national government, run healthcare down our throats, and instead of 247 00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:10,280 Speaker 1: needing sixty votes, which is what they needed in the past, 248 00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:14,400 Speaker 1: now all they need is fifty and the Vice President 249 00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:17,960 Speaker 1: as the tie breaking vote. So in a sense, you're 250 00:17:17,960 --> 00:17:21,680 Speaker 1: almost giving the Democrats the rope to hang the country 251 00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:25,600 Speaker 1: with by blowing up the filibuster. Now, you're right, it's 252 00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:29,000 Speaker 1: a risk. There's no question it's a risk, Derek, the 253 00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:31,840 Speaker 1: counter argument that Trump is making. And by the way, 254 00:17:31,920 --> 00:17:34,159 Speaker 1: just so that you know, I don't think it's going 255 00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:37,720 Speaker 1: to happen. I don't think the filibuster is going to end. 256 00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:40,800 Speaker 1: It's not going to be terminated. The Senate majority of 257 00:17:40,880 --> 00:17:43,359 Speaker 1: leader John Thune has said it's not going to happen 258 00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:46,240 Speaker 1: under his watch. He says he will defend the right 259 00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:49,640 Speaker 1: of the filibuster to the end. There are other Republicans 260 00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:53,119 Speaker 1: who say, no, absolutely not. We are not going to 261 00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:57,920 Speaker 1: blow up the filibuster. So right now, the Republicans don't 262 00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:00,800 Speaker 1: have the votes to do it. They don't have fifty 263 00:18:00,840 --> 00:18:05,800 Speaker 1: one votes to do it. So this whole conversation technically 264 00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:11,600 Speaker 1: could be moot. But Trump's counter argument is this, when 265 00:18:11,640 --> 00:18:14,520 Speaker 1: the last time the Democrats are in control of the Senate, 266 00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:19,919 Speaker 1: they actually voted on a bill that would end the filibuster, 267 00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:23,879 Speaker 1: the so called invoke the nuclear option. They would have 268 00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:29,920 Speaker 1: passed it except that two Democrats voted against it. It 269 00:18:30,040 --> 00:18:35,360 Speaker 1: was Joe Manchin, a moderate from West Virginia, and Kirsten Cinema, 270 00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:40,440 Speaker 1: another moderate from Arizona. Otherwise the Democrats would have ended 271 00:18:40,440 --> 00:18:47,400 Speaker 1: the filibuster. Mansion and Cinema are now gone, and so 272 00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:50,879 Speaker 1: they're gonna have the votes to end the filibuster the 273 00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:59,560 Speaker 1: next time. Furthermore, Bernie Elizabeth Warren Schumer in private AOC 274 00:19:00,640 --> 00:19:06,080 Speaker 1: the congressional Democrats have now they're telling their supporters the 275 00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:11,560 Speaker 1: filibuster's coming down. These idiot Republicans they may hang on 276 00:19:11,680 --> 00:19:14,160 Speaker 1: to it, and we're going to use it to block 277 00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:17,720 Speaker 1: Trump as best as we can. But the moment we 278 00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:20,400 Speaker 1: get pack power, we're gonna end the filibuster. In fact, 279 00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:23,040 Speaker 1: they say it's the first thing they're gonna do. So 280 00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:27,960 Speaker 1: Trump's argument is it's going down, it's going down, it's dead. 281 00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:33,560 Speaker 1: Let's get in front of it. We can be the 282 00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:39,600 Speaker 1: ones who can be proactive and end the filibuster. And 283 00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:42,560 Speaker 1: the key is to clean up the elections. And you 284 00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:46,120 Speaker 1: know it's not just voter id which is important. They 285 00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:50,639 Speaker 1: want to end mail in balloting. You get rid of 286 00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:57,600 Speaker 1: mail in balloting, plus ending all welfare, healthcare, federal benefits 287 00:19:57,640 --> 00:20:02,040 Speaker 1: to illegals, says, I don't see how the Democrats win 288 00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:06,000 Speaker 1: an election in the near future. So if we end 289 00:20:06,080 --> 00:20:10,639 Speaker 1: voter fraud, how do the Democrats win? So Trump's argument 290 00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:14,479 Speaker 1: is for the survival a of the Republican Party, but 291 00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:18,680 Speaker 1: more importantly, for the survival of the country. We have 292 00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:22,480 Speaker 1: to end the filibuster. It's gonna go no matter what. 293 00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:27,679 Speaker 1: Better us than them. Now Thune's argument, just so that 294 00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:30,119 Speaker 1: you know there was a counter argument to Trump's counter argument. 295 00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:34,800 Speaker 1: Thune says, well, then let the Democrats do it. I 296 00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:38,719 Speaker 1: don't want the Republicans to be stained with this. In 297 00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:41,280 Speaker 1: other words, let if they're gonna go and vote the 298 00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:45,520 Speaker 1: nuclear option, let it be on the Democrats's hands, not 299 00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:52,320 Speaker 1: our hands. And Trump just Thinkstune is being naive. Well, okay, 300 00:20:52,480 --> 00:20:54,480 Speaker 1: I mean they can, you know, they can have their 301 00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:58,560 Speaker 1: hands dirty, but in the end they're gonna ram everything 302 00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:02,159 Speaker 1: down our throats and it'll then be too late to 303 00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:06,080 Speaker 1: stop them. So that's where we are right now. Derek, 304 00:21:06,320 --> 00:21:08,480 Speaker 1: final word to you, go So. 305 00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:11,960 Speaker 5: It's a damn that you do and damn don't think 306 00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:13,159 Speaker 5: I guess right, Jeff. 307 00:21:13,320 --> 00:21:18,320 Speaker 1: I mean that's what it is. Uh, it's political war. 308 00:21:18,760 --> 00:21:21,919 Speaker 1: I mean, Derek, what you're seeing now this is a 309 00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:28,920 Speaker 1: political civil war and now they're taking casualties. That's that's 310 00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:34,120 Speaker 1: what it is. No no more bipartisanship, no more room 311 00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:38,920 Speaker 1: for independence, no more room for good faith and you know, 312 00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:42,920 Speaker 1: checks and balances and the system that we used to have. 313 00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:47,840 Speaker 1: Now it's survival of the fittest, who wins our side 314 00:21:48,080 --> 00:21:51,280 Speaker 1: their side, That's what it's now come down to. It's 315 00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:53,359 Speaker 1: it's political trench warfare. 316 00:21:54,480 --> 00:22:00,959 Speaker 5: Uh what about the midterms, Jeff. That Look for the 317 00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:04,320 Speaker 5: Republicans in the midterms, I mean, do you think they 318 00:22:04,359 --> 00:22:07,840 Speaker 5: have a good chance Now, Well, if. 319 00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:10,439 Speaker 1: The economy picks up, I think they're gonna hold on 320 00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:14,520 Speaker 1: to the House. And I got to say, look what 321 00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:19,359 Speaker 1: changed for me, derekuse I. I was in the filibuster camp. 322 00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:22,440 Speaker 1: I always said, you got to have the filibuster. It's 323 00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:26,920 Speaker 1: the ultimate check in balance, especially on socialism on the Democrats. 324 00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:31,920 Speaker 1: But when I saw that they elected Mam Donnie and 325 00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:35,320 Speaker 1: what you know, and I saw how radical and revolutionary 326 00:22:35,400 --> 00:22:39,640 Speaker 1: they've now become. And Mam Donnie right away said, we're 327 00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:43,280 Speaker 1: getting rid of that filibuster. Oh, we're getting rid of 328 00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:46,320 Speaker 1: you know, we're going to pack the Supreme Court, We're gonna. No, no, 329 00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:49,760 Speaker 1: we're gonna, We're gonna end America as we've known it. 330 00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:55,040 Speaker 1: When I saw how extreme and radical the Democrats have become, 331 00:22:56,040 --> 00:22:58,880 Speaker 1: I said, no, you've got to You've got to get 332 00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:01,840 Speaker 1: rid of the filibuster. You gotta do it now. You 333 00:23:01,920 --> 00:23:04,600 Speaker 1: have about a year to save the country. Because what 334 00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:10,720 Speaker 1: scares me is this. Derek Mamdani won the foreign vote 335 00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:14,439 Speaker 1: in New York and in fact, I had no idea 336 00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:18,880 Speaker 1: under Biden, listen to this, he imported just in New 337 00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:26,000 Speaker 1: York City alone, one million Muslims, just in four years, 338 00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:32,320 Speaker 1: one million Muslims. There are now almost as many. Remember 339 00:23:32,720 --> 00:23:36,600 Speaker 1: New York City. Historically, the saying was, there are more 340 00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:40,480 Speaker 1: Jews in New York City than any other city in 341 00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:44,560 Speaker 1: the world except Tel Aviv, even more than in Jerusalem, 342 00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:47,879 Speaker 1: even more than name your other Israeli city. So it 343 00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:50,760 Speaker 1: was always known to have a very strong Jewish population. 344 00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:55,840 Speaker 1: In four years, Biden now is essentially brought in almost 345 00:23:55,840 --> 00:24:00,639 Speaker 1: as many Muslims as there are Jews now. Point being 346 00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:06,000 Speaker 1: a lot of these foreign born voters, many of them illegals, 347 00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:12,800 Speaker 1: many of them non citizens, voted for Mamdani. There's no question, 348 00:24:13,440 --> 00:24:17,560 Speaker 1: no question that you have a lot of these illegals 349 00:24:18,320 --> 00:24:21,640 Speaker 1: who were brought in by Biden. Because there's no voter 350 00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:25,480 Speaker 1: ID laws, they can use mail in balloting, they can 351 00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:30,320 Speaker 1: use ballot harvesting, ballot trafficking. This is what's propping up 352 00:24:30,359 --> 00:24:36,040 Speaker 1: the Democratic Party. If there's an honest election, I don't 353 00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:42,240 Speaker 1: think the Democrats can win. So Trump's argument is, let's 354 00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:47,320 Speaker 1: end the filibuster, pass election integrity laws. In other words, 355 00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:50,960 Speaker 1: end voter fraud, end it, ban it, make it illegal, 356 00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:56,080 Speaker 1: and he goes the Democrats won't take back anything, and 357 00:24:56,119 --> 00:24:57,639 Speaker 1: in fact, it will be hard for them to win 358 00:24:57,680 --> 00:25:03,399 Speaker 1: an election for a generation to come. So he's basically saying, 359 00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:07,200 Speaker 1: look who's going to strike here. He's not using this analogy, 360 00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:10,160 Speaker 1: but basically, if you sat down with him, let's say 361 00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:13,440 Speaker 1: in a living room, so you would say, you're basically saying, 362 00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:17,560 Speaker 1: we're dealing with Hitler. Don't make a deal with Hitler. 363 00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:21,520 Speaker 1: You can't trust anything. This guy signs he's determined to 364 00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:25,800 Speaker 1: go to war. You're saying, hit him before he hits us. 365 00:25:26,359 --> 00:25:29,600 Speaker 1: In other words, the Democrats are determined to blow up 366 00:25:29,600 --> 00:25:34,000 Speaker 1: the filibuster. They're gonna go to war. So either we 367 00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:37,760 Speaker 1: hit them before they hit us, or else They're gonna 368 00:25:37,800 --> 00:25:40,000 Speaker 1: hit us and we'll never get a chance to hit 369 00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:46,000 Speaker 1: him back. And that's basically Trump's thinking. So there you 370 00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:49,479 Speaker 1: have it, my honest opinion, Derek. I think if they 371 00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:53,679 Speaker 1: end a filibuster, especially if the economy comes back, the 372 00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:56,560 Speaker 1: Republicans are not just gonna hold the House. I think 373 00:25:56,560 --> 00:25:59,240 Speaker 1: they're gonna gain a lot, maybe another fifteen twenty seats 374 00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:01,600 Speaker 1: in the House. They're going to expand in the Senate. 375 00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:04,200 Speaker 1: And I think Trump is going to have the most 376 00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:08,200 Speaker 1: spectacular successful presidency in the history of the United States. 377 00:26:09,320 --> 00:26:12,560 Speaker 1: But if this continues the way it's been, where it's 378 00:26:12,600 --> 00:26:17,400 Speaker 1: shut down after shutdown, resistance after resistance, you know, as 379 00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:22,560 Speaker 1: Trump said, it's a slog. It's a tough slog. It's 380 00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:30,600 Speaker 1: constant obstruction, constant paralysis, constant blocking and and and you know, 381 00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:35,000 Speaker 1: and freezing and and and keeping the Republicans unable to 382 00:26:35,040 --> 00:26:40,520 Speaker 1: do anything. Then who knows. With the way they reg elections, 383 00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:45,680 Speaker 1: you know, you look at Mamdani. I mean, hell, they 384 00:26:45,720 --> 00:26:50,000 Speaker 1: stole it from Cuomo. I mean right underneath his nose. 385 00:26:51,359 --> 00:26:54,199 Speaker 1: They went to the establishment Democrats and they stole an 386 00:26:54,280 --> 00:26:58,879 Speaker 1: election from the Democrats, you know, the more old guard. 387 00:26:59,760 --> 00:27:03,919 Speaker 1: I'm i mean, these people are out of control. So 388 00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:07,120 Speaker 1: you know, you look at California, you look at Oregon, 389 00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:10,520 Speaker 1: you look at Illinois, you look at Chicago, you look 390 00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:13,080 Speaker 1: at Philadelphia, you look at New York. Frankly, you look 391 00:27:13,119 --> 00:27:18,440 Speaker 1: at Boston. Elections are very dirty, very dirty, a lot 392 00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:23,560 Speaker 1: of electoral corruption. So I've always said this, to survive 393 00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:28,360 Speaker 1: as a country, we have to have clean elections. If 394 00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:33,840 Speaker 1: we don't, it's over. It's over. Derek, thank you very 395 00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:37,359 Speaker 1: much for that call. Six one seven two six six 396 00:27:37,760 --> 00:27:43,680 Speaker 1: sixty eight sixty eight is the number again, agree, disagree? U. Now, 397 00:27:43,760 --> 00:27:46,840 Speaker 1: I just want to read to you what Trump said. Okay, 398 00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:52,680 Speaker 1: he did a back and forth and so and then 399 00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:56,560 Speaker 1: with reporters, and the reporters were saying, well, why are 400 00:27:56,600 --> 00:28:02,000 Speaker 1: you really pushing now Republicans to end the filibuster? And look, 401 00:28:02,040 --> 00:28:04,120 Speaker 1: this is what he said. I'm just going to paraphrase 402 00:28:04,160 --> 00:28:07,480 Speaker 1: because he gave a long answer. He said, look, yeah, 403 00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:09,240 Speaker 1: for a long time, he goes, I was in favor 404 00:28:09,320 --> 00:28:13,159 Speaker 1: of the filibuster. He goes, of course I was. But 405 00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:17,200 Speaker 1: he says, the Democrats today are not the Democrats of yesterday. 406 00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:21,240 Speaker 1: These are crazy lunatics that we're doing it, that we're 407 00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:26,080 Speaker 1: dealing with and he goes, quote most of you will admit, 408 00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:30,120 Speaker 1: talking out of the press corps, that the Democrats are 409 00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:34,520 Speaker 1: going to end the filibuster, So why aren't we doing it? 410 00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:38,600 Speaker 1: And I think only a foolish person would be against that, 411 00:28:39,240 --> 00:28:43,920 Speaker 1: meaning Thune, especially when you realize that these are crazed people. 412 00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:50,600 Speaker 1: These people are absolutely crazy Trump derangement syndrome. And I 413 00:28:50,640 --> 00:28:55,440 Speaker 1: am totally in favor of terminating the filibuster and so 414 00:28:55,720 --> 00:28:58,720 Speaker 1: and then they say, well, but that would be you, 415 00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:02,760 Speaker 1: that wouldn't be the Democrats. Then the Democrats could do 416 00:29:02,800 --> 00:29:04,800 Speaker 1: anything they want, and you guys would be the ones 417 00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:08,000 Speaker 1: who handed them the key to the kingdom. And he said, look, 418 00:29:09,160 --> 00:29:13,840 Speaker 1: we have to end the filibuster. And then look what 419 00:29:13,880 --> 00:29:18,360 Speaker 1: we can pass. And I'm just quoting now directly, voter 420 00:29:18,520 --> 00:29:25,320 Speaker 1: id laws, no more mail in voting, no more cash bail. 421 00:29:26,640 --> 00:29:30,640 Speaker 1: In other words, ending no cash bail crime. It would 422 00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:34,600 Speaker 1: improve crime significantly. I mean they would improve fighting crime significantly. 423 00:29:35,160 --> 00:29:38,760 Speaker 1: Ending no cash bail, no men in women in sports, 424 00:29:39,600 --> 00:29:43,440 Speaker 1: no welfare for illegals. You could go on and on, 425 00:29:44,160 --> 00:29:47,600 Speaker 1: he goes, I could give you two pages worth, he goes, 426 00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:51,360 Speaker 1: but we can't pass anything because you can't deal with 427 00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:57,720 Speaker 1: these Democrats. They're really irrational, they really are. So his 428 00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:02,840 Speaker 1: argument is, yeah, yeah, sure, if you add an honest 429 00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:07,800 Speaker 1: Democratic party and an honest Republican party traditional parties, of 430 00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:11,920 Speaker 1: course you keep the filibuster. But when your enemy is 431 00:30:11,960 --> 00:30:15,560 Speaker 1: telling you that they're going to invoke the nuclear option 432 00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:20,400 Speaker 1: and end the filibuster, terminate it, and then destroy the 433 00:30:20,480 --> 00:30:24,160 Speaker 1: United States of America as we know it, then, according 434 00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:29,520 Speaker 1: to Trump, you're crazy. It's almost a form of unilateral surrender. 435 00:30:31,320 --> 00:30:35,160 Speaker 1: So we should end the filibuster and make sure the 436 00:30:35,200 --> 00:30:39,720 Speaker 1: Democrats can never steal another election again. And this way 437 00:30:39,920 --> 00:30:46,880 Speaker 1: the country has a chance. Agree, disagree. Dave in Vermont, 438 00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:56,440 Speaker 1: Thanks for holding Dave, and welcome bonjeour. How are you, 439 00:30:56,560 --> 00:30:57,400 Speaker 1: my French friend? 440 00:30:58,120 --> 00:31:02,800 Speaker 6: Oh good good. I'd been taking I've had a vision 441 00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:06,680 Speaker 6: listening to about Chuck maybe losing his position and everything. 442 00:31:06,720 --> 00:31:08,920 Speaker 6: A vision came to my mind. I can see it now. 443 00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:15,240 Speaker 6: Chucky's cheeseburgers, world famous, with dogs, wild animals and gastro 444 00:31:15,320 --> 00:31:16,880 Speaker 6: intestinal doctors everywhere. 445 00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:26,600 Speaker 1: Dave, I got to ask you, my friend, are you 446 00:31:26,920 --> 00:31:32,840 Speaker 1: shocked that the Democrats have completely capitulated and that Trump 447 00:31:33,040 --> 00:31:36,120 Speaker 1: just I mean he whipped them. I mean he broke them. 448 00:31:36,400 --> 00:31:38,560 Speaker 1: You know, forty days of all of this they put 449 00:31:38,600 --> 00:31:41,480 Speaker 1: the country through, and in the end there was all 450 00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:46,080 Speaker 1: for nothing. They got nothing, and it was all for nothing. 451 00:31:47,320 --> 00:31:51,000 Speaker 1: In other words, were you surprised that the Republicans finally 452 00:31:51,040 --> 00:31:53,120 Speaker 1: held the line. 453 00:31:53,480 --> 00:31:56,200 Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm a little bit surprised at that. But the 454 00:31:56,200 --> 00:31:58,440 Speaker 6: Democrats did get something. They got a hell of a 455 00:31:58,440 --> 00:32:01,880 Speaker 6: stain on their name right now, and that's I think, 456 00:32:02,040 --> 00:32:04,520 Speaker 6: if we can I didn't want to get rid of 457 00:32:04,520 --> 00:32:07,760 Speaker 6: the filibuster before, but now I changed my mind. I 458 00:32:07,760 --> 00:32:10,160 Speaker 6: think if we can do that, get rid of the filibuster, 459 00:32:10,480 --> 00:32:13,320 Speaker 6: clean the garbage out of Congress for one thing, and 460 00:32:13,360 --> 00:32:16,400 Speaker 6: the garbage out out of the goat government. The more 461 00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:18,880 Speaker 6: the better. And there are a lot of people in 462 00:32:18,880 --> 00:32:22,960 Speaker 6: this country that would agree with that, and Democrats and 463 00:32:23,040 --> 00:32:25,960 Speaker 6: Independence alike would agree with a lot of Democrats and 464 00:32:26,040 --> 00:32:28,640 Speaker 6: Independence alike would probably agree with getting rid of the 465 00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:31,440 Speaker 6: garbage and having things run smoother. But if we could 466 00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:34,720 Speaker 6: do that and concentrate on getting the economy back in 467 00:32:34,840 --> 00:32:37,480 Speaker 6: shape where people make it a lot more affordable for 468 00:32:37,520 --> 00:32:41,240 Speaker 6: people to own a home, have help, put some gasoline 469 00:32:41,240 --> 00:32:43,960 Speaker 6: in your car and fill your fridge again, I think 470 00:32:44,840 --> 00:32:46,600 Speaker 6: you're going to change the minds of a lot of 471 00:32:46,640 --> 00:32:50,000 Speaker 6: people if the country can get run smooth again, get 472 00:32:50,120 --> 00:32:53,560 Speaker 6: rid of the voted crap, the idea voter ID, get 473 00:32:53,560 --> 00:32:56,120 Speaker 6: that in place, get rid of the mailing stuff so 474 00:32:56,160 --> 00:32:58,960 Speaker 6: we can get the clean voter rolls. We'll be appeasing 475 00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:03,760 Speaker 6: the American public, the American citizens, and not the aliens 476 00:33:03,760 --> 00:33:07,200 Speaker 6: and imported people. That's my view. 477 00:33:07,640 --> 00:33:15,440 Speaker 1: Dave Obama now is in private, apparently going berserk. Reports 478 00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:19,160 Speaker 1: are coming out that he is furious. He's furious at 479 00:33:19,160 --> 00:33:24,000 Speaker 1: the Democrats who defected. He's furious at Schumer. He thought 480 00:33:24,040 --> 00:33:27,000 Speaker 1: Schumer was a horrible leader, that he led them to 481 00:33:27,080 --> 00:33:30,840 Speaker 1: disaster in the showdown with Trump, and that now he's 482 00:33:30,880 --> 00:33:35,080 Speaker 1: petrified that Trump. And these are now almost verbatim now 483 00:33:35,080 --> 00:33:40,000 Speaker 1: apparently what Obama is saying behind closed doors that Trump 484 00:33:40,080 --> 00:33:44,920 Speaker 1: is going to quote unquote undo everything that I've done. 485 00:33:45,080 --> 00:33:50,280 Speaker 1: And the centerpiece, his crown jewel is Obamacare. And I 486 00:33:50,320 --> 00:33:53,880 Speaker 1: think now the Democrats really sense the pressure on Obamacare 487 00:33:54,600 --> 00:33:57,280 Speaker 1: that if you take away all of these hundreds of 488 00:33:57,320 --> 00:34:02,840 Speaker 1: billions of dollars, these corrol up subsidies, that Obamacare will 489 00:34:02,880 --> 00:34:07,400 Speaker 1: now crash, collapse under its own weight. That clearly they 490 00:34:07,480 --> 00:34:10,560 Speaker 1: lie to us. Everything they said it was going to do, 491 00:34:10,760 --> 00:34:14,120 Speaker 1: it didn't do, and that Trump now is ready to 492 00:34:14,200 --> 00:34:19,319 Speaker 1: replace it with a real viable alternative. If Obamacare goes 493 00:34:19,400 --> 00:34:25,200 Speaker 1: down in flames, is Trump in many ways now undoing 494 00:34:25,400 --> 00:34:29,319 Speaker 1: Obama's legacy? Will he be known in some ways as 495 00:34:29,360 --> 00:34:33,680 Speaker 1: the anti Obama? I'm just curious. Should Obama be worried? 496 00:34:33,719 --> 00:34:34,920 Speaker 1: I guess that's what I'm asking you. 497 00:34:36,480 --> 00:34:39,080 Speaker 6: I would say, yeah, Obama should be worried. There's a 498 00:34:39,160 --> 00:34:41,279 Speaker 6: lot of garbage and a lot of dirt that's gonna 499 00:34:41,320 --> 00:34:45,439 Speaker 6: that's gonna be undug and I think, yeah, I think 500 00:34:45,560 --> 00:34:47,680 Speaker 6: things things are going to fall apart for them pretty 501 00:34:47,840 --> 00:34:50,600 Speaker 6: pretty quickly. And the thing is, we've got to make 502 00:34:50,640 --> 00:34:53,560 Speaker 6: sure we hold the offices of both the House and 503 00:34:53,640 --> 00:34:56,640 Speaker 6: the Senate. We've got to hold that because if we 504 00:34:56,760 --> 00:34:59,840 Speaker 6: lose that, we're on the way down. We won't regain 505 00:34:59,840 --> 00:35:02,480 Speaker 6: it again, because we won't be able to get things 506 00:35:02,480 --> 00:35:04,920 Speaker 6: passed yet we want to get passed. We won't be 507 00:35:04,960 --> 00:35:10,560 Speaker 6: able to advance the agenda that should be advanced for 508 00:35:10,680 --> 00:35:13,480 Speaker 6: the benefit of the American citizens and not the aliens 509 00:35:13,520 --> 00:35:15,960 Speaker 6: and illegals. 510 00:35:16,280 --> 00:35:19,239 Speaker 1: Dave, thank you very very much for that call. I 511 00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:22,439 Speaker 1: really appreciate it. I think that's another thing now that's 512 00:35:22,440 --> 00:35:24,319 Speaker 1: really you know, you put it. They've got you know, 513 00:35:24,360 --> 00:35:27,759 Speaker 1: they've been stained by this right, and you're right, the Democrats. 514 00:35:27,760 --> 00:35:31,480 Speaker 1: There's a massive stain on them, moral staying, political stain. 515 00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:35,160 Speaker 1: And one of the things is I think people are shocked, 516 00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:40,840 Speaker 1: and just compare it to Obamacare. They're shocked that Democrats 517 00:35:41,640 --> 00:35:45,680 Speaker 1: are fighting to give hundreds of billions of dollars in 518 00:35:45,800 --> 00:35:50,680 Speaker 1: taxpayer funded quote unquote free healthcare to illegals. But if 519 00:35:50,719 --> 00:35:56,080 Speaker 1: you notice, under Obamacare, if you don't want Obamacare, if 520 00:35:56,080 --> 00:35:57,960 Speaker 1: you say no, I just I won't take health and 521 00:35:58,000 --> 00:35:59,640 Speaker 1: I don't want to I don't want to take health 522 00:35:59,680 --> 00:36:06,040 Speaker 1: insurance coverage, you get fined. So an American citizen will 523 00:36:06,080 --> 00:36:11,520 Speaker 1: get fined if that person doesn't want Obamacare. But they're 524 00:36:11,560 --> 00:36:17,120 Speaker 1: gonna give health care free to illegals. So US citizens, 525 00:36:17,480 --> 00:36:24,560 Speaker 1: we find you illegals, you get it free. And notice 526 00:36:24,760 --> 00:36:28,319 Speaker 1: you don't get Obamacare for free. In fact, nobody gets 527 00:36:28,360 --> 00:36:31,000 Speaker 1: their health care for free. We'll say, well, Jeff, I'm 528 00:36:31,000 --> 00:36:33,960 Speaker 1: on Medicare. No, even then, you had to pay into Medicare. 529 00:36:34,560 --> 00:36:36,560 Speaker 1: And if you want extra things in Medicare, you got 530 00:36:36,560 --> 00:36:38,560 Speaker 1: to pay for that as well as many of you know. 531 00:36:39,280 --> 00:36:44,719 Speaker 1: So notice the only group in the entire population that 532 00:36:44,760 --> 00:36:49,200 Speaker 1: the Democrats really want to give quote unquote free healthcare too, 533 00:36:49,800 --> 00:36:57,840 Speaker 1: are illegals. Everything is for the illegals, everything, And the 534 00:36:57,880 --> 00:37:02,240 Speaker 1: American people now are saying, why is that? And now 535 00:37:02,280 --> 00:37:07,719 Speaker 1: it's all like a light bulb, it's all all. They're 536 00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:13,120 Speaker 1: an anti American party. They have no loyalty, no allegiance 537 00:37:13,160 --> 00:37:19,040 Speaker 1: to the United States. All they care about is stealing elections. 538 00:37:19,600 --> 00:37:24,600 Speaker 1: It's obvious. Keep the illegals here, don't allow them to 539 00:37:24,640 --> 00:37:28,320 Speaker 1: be deported, and give them all the welfare and freebies 540 00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:32,200 Speaker 1: you can give them, because then they will keep voting 541 00:37:32,280 --> 00:37:37,719 Speaker 1: for you again and again and again. And Trump is 542 00:37:37,760 --> 00:37:43,879 Speaker 1: saying no more, no more. Pass laws that end all 543 00:37:43,920 --> 00:37:49,560 Speaker 1: welfare benefits to illegals, ban it completely, ban it, put 544 00:37:49,640 --> 00:37:53,360 Speaker 1: up voter id laws across the entire country, and mail 545 00:37:53,400 --> 00:37:58,040 Speaker 1: in balloting and ballid harvesting make it impossible for illegals 546 00:37:58,080 --> 00:38:02,360 Speaker 1: to be able to vote. He goes, who's going to 547 00:38:02,440 --> 00:38:07,239 Speaker 1: vote for the Democrats. They're a minority party. And by 548 00:38:07,280 --> 00:38:09,279 Speaker 1: the way, one of the things he also wants, and 549 00:38:09,320 --> 00:38:13,400 Speaker 1: he's right, pass a law in which in the US 550 00:38:13,400 --> 00:38:19,520 Speaker 1: census Only citizens can be counted, not total population, meaning 551 00:38:19,560 --> 00:38:22,160 Speaker 1: not illegals. But what do you think is going to 552 00:38:22,200 --> 00:38:26,880 Speaker 1: happen if that happens, if you just count citizens in 553 00:38:26,960 --> 00:38:27,600 Speaker 1: the census.
