1
00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:01,040
Speaker 1: All right, thanks Scott.

2
00:00:01,120 --> 00:00:03,880
Speaker 2: You an hour two Sean Hannity Show this Friday, toll

3
00:00:03,920 --> 00:00:06,000
Speaker 2: free on numbers eight hundred and nine, P FOURT one, Shawn,

4
00:00:06,120 --> 00:00:09,120
Speaker 2: if you want to be a part of the program.

5
00:00:09,960 --> 00:00:15,280
Speaker 2: It is amazing that some people get it and then

6
00:00:15,440 --> 00:00:18,919
Speaker 2: some people will never get it. And what do I

7
00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:21,959
Speaker 2: mean by that? In my free state of Florida. This

8
00:00:22,079 --> 00:00:27,880
Speaker 2: state has been transformed because of conservative policies being implemented

9
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:32,680
Speaker 2: at the highest level under Governor Ronda Centus and with

10
00:00:32,760 --> 00:00:34,680
Speaker 2: the help of President Trump. They've been a great one

11
00:00:34,720 --> 00:00:40,760
Speaker 2: two combination. And for whatever reason, you always have those Republicans,

12
00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:42,920
Speaker 2: I don't want to you can call them a establishment

13
00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:48,720
Speaker 2: maybe inclined to being Republicans and name only institutionalists. You

14
00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:52,000
Speaker 2: know that even you're making all of this success and

15
00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:57,800
Speaker 2: then there becomes a resistance to what is been so

16
00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:01,520
Speaker 2: successful and necessary to change or to take it to

17
00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:05,360
Speaker 2: the next level. And it is bizarre. I'm watching in

18
00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:07,840
Speaker 2: my free state of Florida, and I do this as

19
00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:11,200
Speaker 2: a cautionary tell for other states that have made so

20
00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:15,280
Speaker 2: much progress implementing, for example, either American First or a

21
00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:19,520
Speaker 2: state first agenda. And for whatever reason, in recent months,

22
00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:23,200
Speaker 2: there has been some kind of I would describe as

23
00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:27,880
Speaker 2: more Rhino Republicans in the Florida House, and a bit

24
00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:31,120
Speaker 2: of tension has emerged, reflecting a deeper power struggle within

25
00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:34,839
Speaker 2: the state's Republican party. And I'm having a hard time

26
00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:38,760
Speaker 2: comprehending why. You know, these guys in Tallahassee are pushing

27
00:01:38,800 --> 00:01:42,720
Speaker 2: back on very key aspects of the governor's agenda, for example,

28
00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:45,800
Speaker 2: stalling his preferred condo reform bill and.

29
00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:46,640
Speaker 1: It became a big deal.

30
00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:49,760
Speaker 2: You might remember that condo building fell down in Miami,

31
00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:54,840
Speaker 2: and also rejecting his special Session on immigration in favor

32
00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:58,280
Speaker 2: of crafting their own which is a far less aggressive bill.

33
00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:01,320
Speaker 2: On top of that, the House advancing their own sales

34
00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:04,920
Speaker 2: tax cut plan well, while Governor DeSantis is saying no.

35
00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:08,760
Speaker 2: The biggest problem in Florida has been, especially in the

36
00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:12,640
Speaker 2: coastal areas of Florida, is property values because of the

37
00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:17,240
Speaker 2: great migration, have gone up dramatically. And as they have

38
00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:20,840
Speaker 2: gone up, so to have property taxes, which is now,

39
00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:25,000
Speaker 2: you know, literally threatening future growth in the state of Florida.

40
00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:26,000
Speaker 1: And they still have.

41
00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:28,440
Speaker 2: We still have at least another ten fifteen years of

42
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:33,440
Speaker 2: significant migration with baby boomers retiring and anyway, so I

43
00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:35,760
Speaker 2: thought i'd bring on Governor DeSantis as a sort of

44
00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:38,679
Speaker 2: maybe a canary in the coal mine that you've really

45
00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:40,600
Speaker 2: got to keep your foot on the gas and keep

46
00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:41,959
Speaker 2: people honest at all times.

47
00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:43,480
Speaker 1: Governor, A great to have you back. How are you?

48
00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:46,440
Speaker 3: Yeah? Good? You know, Sean, I've been on many times

49
00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:48,720
Speaker 3: if you talking about how we used to be a

50
00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:51,679
Speaker 3: swing state. Now we have one point two million more

51
00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:54,959
Speaker 3: Republicans than Democrats, and so you know, that's a success,

52
00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:57,560
Speaker 3: but it also creates its own challenges because I think

53
00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:00,720
Speaker 3: people realize, unless you're in like a really deep blue

54
00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:03,400
Speaker 3: part of Florida, you can't get elected with a D

55
00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:05,679
Speaker 3: by your name. You've got to run as a Republican.

56
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:07,840
Speaker 3: And so I think what's happened though, even though we

57
00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:11,240
Speaker 3: have the largest Republican super majority in the history of

58
00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:13,840
Speaker 3: the Florida House, I think we have a far less

59
00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:17,040
Speaker 3: conservative agenda. In fact, I would say it hasn't been

60
00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:19,240
Speaker 3: conservative at all, because I think you have a lot

61
00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:21,840
Speaker 3: of those people who really aren't true believers who are

62
00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:25,040
Speaker 3: in positions of power right now. Think about this. One

63
00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:27,079
Speaker 3: of the things that we've led on better than any

64
00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:31,320
Speaker 3: other state is getting the indoctrination out of our universities,

65
00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:35,119
Speaker 3: eliminating DEI, eliminating the woke, making sure that we put

66
00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:39,880
Speaker 3: people in positions, both professors and university presidents, who are

67
00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:41,720
Speaker 3: going to believe in the classical mission of what a

68
00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:44,160
Speaker 3: university should be and not the nonsense we see at

69
00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:46,920
Speaker 3: Colombia and all the other places. And the Wall Street

70
00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:49,119
Speaker 3: Journal even a month ago was talking about the things

71
00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:52,360
Speaker 3: that President Trump is correctly doing to hold the universities

72
00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:54,760
Speaker 3: accountable nationwide, and they say, you want to know what

73
00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:56,680
Speaker 3: he wants to do, just look at what Florida's done.

74
00:03:56,720 --> 00:03:59,960
Speaker 3: Florida sent the blueprint from that. Every conservative in America

75
00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:04,120
Speaker 3: like hallelujah. Yet in the Florida House, they are trying

76
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:08,480
Speaker 3: to advance legislation to roll back the conservative reforms that

77
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:12,320
Speaker 3: we've instituted at universities, and in fact, they want to

78
00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:16,000
Speaker 3: totally cut us out of being involved in helping select

79
00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:18,960
Speaker 3: university presidents. What you would end up having is that

80
00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:21,360
Speaker 3: would be a lifeline to the left and they would

81
00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:24,680
Speaker 3: end up going liberal once again. And then, of course,

82
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:28,359
Speaker 3: on property tax, you talk to these people. I talked

83
00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:32,040
Speaker 3: to all the folks. They want property tax relief. They're

84
00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:35,359
Speaker 3: proposing a plan that is being rejected in the Florida

85
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:37,760
Speaker 3: Senate anyways, But it would grant a lot of relief

86
00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:41,039
Speaker 3: to Taurus and non residents and stuffn Why would we

87
00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:44,240
Speaker 3: not want to focus relief on Florida residence. You did

88
00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:47,279
Speaker 3: bring up the immigration, you know, I called the special session.

89
00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:49,880
Speaker 3: I said we need to have all state and locals

90
00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:54,120
Speaker 3: helping President Trump with deportations. They rejected it, fought me

91
00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:56,760
Speaker 3: on it, they got big blowback. Finally we got it done.

92
00:04:56,960 --> 00:04:59,560
Speaker 3: But it's done issue after issue, and so basically I

93
00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:03,800
Speaker 3: think what their agenda is twofold. One, they have a

94
00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:06,240
Speaker 3: whole host of bills they're trying to push through to

95
00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:10,720
Speaker 3: enrich liberal trial lawyers, which will increase your costs, increase

96
00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:13,560
Speaker 3: cost of businesses, and ultimately mean less jobs and not

97
00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:16,400
Speaker 3: good policy. And then two, they just want to oppose me.

98
00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:19,760
Speaker 3: So the reason why they did their tourist tax cut

99
00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:22,400
Speaker 3: is because I was talking about property taxes and they

100
00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:24,880
Speaker 3: don't want to do the things that I'm doing, even

101
00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:26,719
Speaker 3: though all I'm doing is governor.

102
00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:29,360
Speaker 2: Haven't you ever traveled abroad? Did you ever look at

103
00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:32,599
Speaker 2: what they charge you if you rent a hotel room

104
00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:34,320
Speaker 2: in another country?

105
00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:39,840
Speaker 1: In terms of a visitor tax. It's insane.

106
00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:44,320
Speaker 2: But meanwhile, everybody still goes to those places, and everybody's

107
00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:47,560
Speaker 2: still going to come from the Northeast and the Midwest

108
00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:49,720
Speaker 2: down to Florida in the middle of winter so they

109
00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:50,640
Speaker 2: can get some relief.

110
00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:54,240
Speaker 3: Not only that, we've had all these liberal groups try

111
00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:57,120
Speaker 3: to do travel advisories saying don't go to Florida since

112
00:05:57,160 --> 00:05:59,960
Speaker 3: I've been governor. When I became governor, we were typically

113
00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:02,880
Speaker 3: getting about eighty to ninety million visitors a year. We

114
00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:05,400
Speaker 3: just set the record last year one hundred and forty

115
00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:09,120
Speaker 3: two million visitors to Florida. And so that helps the economy,

116
00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:11,120
Speaker 3: and it's also bad for traffic and some other things,

117
00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:13,960
Speaker 3: and we're working through that. But we have this golden

118
00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:18,159
Speaker 3: opportunity to give people property tax relief and then just

119
00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:20,640
Speaker 3: have more of the tax burden going people that aren't

120
00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:23,640
Speaker 3: residents of here. They're Taurus foreigners and all this stuff,

121
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:26,440
Speaker 3: and they don't want to do that. So this is

122
00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:28,680
Speaker 3: just what it is. But here's what I've learned in

123
00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:31,280
Speaker 3: this In this line of work, if you run for office,

124
00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:33,520
Speaker 3: you tell people what you're going to do, and you

125
00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:35,880
Speaker 3: get in and do it and follow through. Even people

126
00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:39,160
Speaker 3: that disagree with you, they do respect that. What voters

127
00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:42,480
Speaker 3: really get upset about is when you run saying you're

128
00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:44,640
Speaker 3: going to do certain things. And these guys all ran

129
00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:47,800
Speaker 3: saying they were going to support the Florida success story,

130
00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:51,480
Speaker 3: support the Florida model, support conservative policies. But then when

131
00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:54,200
Speaker 3: you get in and you don't follow through, and in

132
00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:56,919
Speaker 3: fact you stab your voters in the back, that is

133
00:06:56,960 --> 00:07:00,240
Speaker 3: when we have some serious, serious problems. And so there

134
00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:02,680
Speaker 3: is something rotten in the state of Denmark when it

135
00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:05,080
Speaker 3: comes to the Florida House of Representatives. This is not

136
00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:09,080
Speaker 3: the type of conservative governance that we saw under the

137
00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:12,880
Speaker 3: three previous legislatures with the three previous speakers since I've

138
00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:15,560
Speaker 3: been governor, and I think this is the least conservative

139
00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:19,840
Speaker 3: agenda that the Florida House has pursued since Republicans took

140
00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:23,160
Speaker 3: the majority way back in nineteen ninety six, and voters

141
00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:24,920
Speaker 3: need to know that that's what's going on. I think

142
00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:27,840
Speaker 3: these guys think that they get in the Tallahassee bubble

143
00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:30,000
Speaker 3: and they can do whatever the hell they want to

144
00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:33,120
Speaker 3: do without any recourse from the voters, and that's just

145
00:07:33,160 --> 00:07:36,440
Speaker 3: not true. I think everybody has a real significant voice.

146
00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:38,640
Speaker 3: Oh one more thing they're doing, Sean, I think you'll

147
00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:42,520
Speaker 3: appreciate this. We all believe in draining the swamp, draining

148
00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:45,880
Speaker 3: the swamp in DC, also draining the swamp in Tallahassee,

149
00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:48,680
Speaker 3: which we have done. Part of the things President Trump's

150
00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:51,480
Speaker 3: trying to do. He's trying to move bureaucrats and agencies

151
00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:54,880
Speaker 3: out of Washington rather than have them all there. We've

152
00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:58,040
Speaker 3: done that in Florida. They're actually pursuing in the Florida

153
00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:03,119
Speaker 3: House a bill that would render our agency heads ineligible

154
00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:06,920
Speaker 3: unless they live in Tallahassee. So our Surgeon General, Joseph

155
00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:10,600
Speaker 3: latipoau great surgeon General, he doesn't live in Tallahassee.

156
00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:12,480
Speaker 2: By the way, he's been a rock star and he's

157
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:15,600
Speaker 2: not afraid to tell it like it is and we

158
00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:17,160
Speaker 2: can go back to COVID with him.

159
00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:22,600
Speaker 3: So we want people outside of Tallahassee. So they basically

160
00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:26,080
Speaker 3: have this bill, it's basically refill the swamp at why

161
00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:29,200
Speaker 3: would you want to fire Surgeon General Joseph Latipou And

162
00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:31,280
Speaker 3: yet they're doing it, and it's all just to try

163
00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:34,480
Speaker 3: to attack the success that we've done. And that's not

164
00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:36,360
Speaker 3: what they told the voters that they would do. But

165
00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:38,559
Speaker 3: that is how they're choosing to use their power.

166
00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:41,559
Speaker 2: Almost every person that you're talking about, I know who

167
00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:43,320
Speaker 2: these people are, and i know what they're up to,

168
00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:45,720
Speaker 2: and I've been following it closely. But I think it

169
00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:48,320
Speaker 2: is a case study that people have to be forever

170
00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:51,640
Speaker 2: vigil And I told people after the last election, you know,

171
00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:53,680
Speaker 2: don't think you can vote for Donald Trump and walk

172
00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:56,360
Speaker 2: away and think you did your job, because there are

173
00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:59,760
Speaker 2: going to be moments where your voices are going to need.

174
00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:00,240
Speaker 1: To be heard heard.

175
00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:03,920
Speaker 2: But what really makes me mad because I followed these races,

176
00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:06,080
Speaker 2: and again it's a case study. I think for other

177
00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:10,239
Speaker 2: conservative states they've got to be forever vigilant. Is almost

178
00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:15,400
Speaker 2: all of them, without fail, ran as Trump, Maga, the

179
00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:22,600
Speaker 2: Santis Conservatives. They ran on really being transformational and consequential,

180
00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:25,560
Speaker 2: and now all of a sudden, I'm getting report after

181
00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:29,800
Speaker 2: report after report that they're abandoning the very things that

182
00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:31,440
Speaker 2: brought them to the dance.

183
00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:32,800
Speaker 1: And that really makes me mad.

184
00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:34,320
Speaker 3: Man. It should, and it should make a lot of

185
00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:36,800
Speaker 3: voters mad. I mean, we didn't even have a supermajority

186
00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:39,640
Speaker 3: when I first got elected twenty twenty two. We had

187
00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:42,319
Speaker 3: the big twenty point tsunami and we swept in a

188
00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:44,480
Speaker 3: lot of folks to be able to come in and serve.

189
00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:48,000
Speaker 3: And yet they have this super majority and they're not

190
00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:50,600
Speaker 3: taking on the left. I mean, my view is no

191
00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:53,839
Speaker 3: state has done better at beating the left across all

192
00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:57,000
Speaker 3: these different facets of American life than we have in Florida.

193
00:09:57,679 --> 00:09:59,920
Speaker 3: I want to continue to keep the left at bay.

194
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:01,920
Speaker 3: I don't want to give them a lifeline. And yet

195
00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:05,400
Speaker 3: the Florida House of Representatives, these Republicans there, they're given

196
00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:09,160
Speaker 3: the left a lifeline. They want to rewokeify the universities.

197
00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:12,240
Speaker 3: They're doing things that is not in keeping with what

198
00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:15,600
Speaker 3: we promised voters we would do, and that is a huge,

199
00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:19,480
Speaker 3: huge mistake that they're doing. So look, you are a

200
00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:22,400
Speaker 3: new convert to Florida, Sean, you know how different it

201
00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:22,679
Speaker 3: can be.

202
00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:26,320
Speaker 2: Well, in fairness to me, I've owned property down here

203
00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:30,120
Speaker 2: for almost twenty eight years, so yeah, I mean, and

204
00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:32,280
Speaker 2: you gave me a hard time about you keep threatening

205
00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:32,960
Speaker 2: when do you move it?

206
00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:33,640
Speaker 1: And I moved.

207
00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:36,880
Speaker 3: But you dealt with New York as a resident for

208
00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:38,360
Speaker 3: how long you've seen?

209
00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:41,079
Speaker 2: Oh it was awful. I was kind of trapped there

210
00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:42,800
Speaker 2: because of my kids. To be very honest.

211
00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:45,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, but when this goes, it goes, and it's tough.

212
00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:48,239
Speaker 3: And so I think there's just a lot of Floridians

213
00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:51,560
Speaker 3: who who maybe have moved here since I've been governor,

214
00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:55,280
Speaker 3: since COVID, probably millions of them who loves the state,

215
00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:57,280
Speaker 3: love the way it's governed, and they all, I think

216
00:10:57,320 --> 00:10:59,000
Speaker 3: a lot of them take it for granted because this

217
00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:01,280
Speaker 3: is all they know. Well, I think what you're seeing

218
00:11:01,320 --> 00:11:04,200
Speaker 3: in the Florida House is no, this is not something

219
00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:07,120
Speaker 3: that is set in stone. We have a chance to

220
00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:09,680
Speaker 3: solidify and build off the success, which I think what

221
00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:12,520
Speaker 3: our voters want us to do. But you absolutely have

222
00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:16,400
Speaker 3: the possibility of squandering that success and reverting back to

223
00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:18,600
Speaker 3: where we would be a purple state and we want

224
00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:22,160
Speaker 3: election away from having a Democrat come in and really

225
00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:23,199
Speaker 3: ruin things.

226
00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:27,120
Speaker 2: Do you really think, even with the significant advantage that

227
00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:30,319
Speaker 2: Republicans have now gotten in terms of voter roles, that

228
00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:32,480
Speaker 2: there would even be that possibility not?

229
00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:37,040
Speaker 3: I don't think maybe right now, But these things kind

230
00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:39,840
Speaker 3: of move, and I think the danger is is when

231
00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:43,720
Speaker 3: you have folks pursuing a non conservative agenda, when they're

232
00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:48,280
Speaker 3: joining with Democrats to oppose a conservative governor, that causes

233
00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:52,240
Speaker 3: enthusiasm amongst the base to really dwindle. That's just the

234
00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:54,839
Speaker 3: reality of it. And so if that's the kind of

235
00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:57,720
Speaker 3: agenda they're going to pursue, we're going to continue to

236
00:11:57,760 --> 00:12:01,040
Speaker 3: lose enthusiasm. I think the registration would probably start to

237
00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:04,080
Speaker 3: go the other way. It doesn't happen overnight, but what

238
00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:07,720
Speaker 3: happens is, you know, sometimes you have tough political environments.

239
00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:10,600
Speaker 3: If you have lack of enthusiasm and the Dems are

240
00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:12,480
Speaker 3: hopped up and they start pouring a lot of money

241
00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:15,160
Speaker 3: in here, who knows. I don't think that'll happen today.

242
00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:17,800
Speaker 3: But I think we're kind of at a time for

243
00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:21,160
Speaker 3: choosing in Florida. Do we double down on the success

244
00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:26,240
Speaker 3: or do we kiss it away for pursuing this ridiculous

245
00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:27,719
Speaker 3: agenda that nobody voted for.

246
00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:29,120
Speaker 1: That really kind of scares me.

247
00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:33,440
Speaker 2: I think the greatest compliment that maybe you're getting is

248
00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:37,920
Speaker 2: when I watch Vivik Ramaswami. He's running for governor in Ohio.

249
00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:41,440
Speaker 2: Remember Ohio and Florida or swing states, they were the

250
00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:44,520
Speaker 2: two states to watch. Not any longer, so states can

251
00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:48,840
Speaker 2: make swings politically. But he's running on your entire agenda.

252
00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:51,160
Speaker 2: He wants to compete with you. He wants to compete

253
00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:53,720
Speaker 2: with us, and I'm like, well slow down, mister.

254
00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:56,240
Speaker 1: I hope you do well, but not that well.

255
00:12:56,600 --> 00:12:58,560
Speaker 3: Well we've got You could throw a dart at a

256
00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:01,840
Speaker 3: map of the state of Florida definitely hit someone from Ohio.

257
00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:05,160
Speaker 3: You know, sometimes like the New Yorkers go to pouts Florida,

258
00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:06,680
Speaker 3: the mothers oh.

259
00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:08,920
Speaker 1: Southwest Florida is all Midwest.

260
00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:12,040
Speaker 3: You're right everywhere, but Ohio just seems to be everywhere.

261
00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:14,800
Speaker 3: It's really really crazy. Look, my mom's from Ohio and

262
00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:17,200
Speaker 3: my wife's from Ohio, so that you have both of those.

263
00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:18,880
Speaker 3: But I do think if you look just since I've

264
00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:22,200
Speaker 3: been governor, we led on the issues, and then you

265
00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:24,320
Speaker 3: did have a lot of other states that stepped up.

266
00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:26,120
Speaker 3: We tended to be the one to get out in

267
00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:28,920
Speaker 3: front first on a lot of these issues, which is fine,

268
00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:32,720
Speaker 3: and we played a really important role in creating I

269
00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:37,079
Speaker 3: think a great era of conservative governance, particularly in response

270
00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:39,440
Speaker 3: to the Biden administration. And oh, by the way, Shan,

271
00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:42,319
Speaker 3: you and I talked. We rejected a lot of Biden

272
00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:45,800
Speaker 3: administration money, almost a billion dollars. They didn't know how

273
00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:47,640
Speaker 3: to take it back, and so I went up to

274
00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:50,280
Speaker 3: meet with Elon Musk last month. I said, Elon, I've

275
00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:52,560
Speaker 3: got almost a billion. We don't want it. Biden wouldn't

276
00:13:52,559 --> 00:13:54,120
Speaker 3: take it. You want to, Oh, I take it? So

277
00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:56,840
Speaker 3: we sent it and they we returned almost a billion

278
00:13:56,920 --> 00:14:00,840
Speaker 3: dollars to the Doze efforts for federal We're now that's

279
00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:01,319
Speaker 3: got to be.

280
00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:04,440
Speaker 2: A world record. What other state governor has ever done that.

281
00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:07,520
Speaker 2: I've got to run only because of the constraints of time.

282
00:14:07,640 --> 00:14:12,040
Speaker 2: But if this problem continues to evolve and get worse,

283
00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:16,680
Speaker 2: we'll just name names. And too many people have worked

284
00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:20,120
Speaker 2: too hard to make Florida the model state in the

285
00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:22,840
Speaker 2: country of freedom and liberty and where woe goes to

286
00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:27,600
Speaker 2: die to change to change course. So please, governor, keep

287
00:14:27,640 --> 00:14:29,240
Speaker 2: us in the loop, let us know what's going on.

288
00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:30,280
Speaker 2: We really appreciate it.

289
00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:32,240

297
00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:53,560
Speaker 2: thank goodness, the House Reconciliation, the Senate. Hopefully they work

298
00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:56,920
Speaker 2: it out and at least we'll get part of the

299
00:14:57,720 --> 00:15:02,000
Speaker 2: Biden Harris economy done with and begin the process of

300
00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:06,120
Speaker 2: healing the country. Obviously getting rid of waste, fraud, abuse, corruption.

301
00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:09,720
Speaker 2: Anybody with an ounce of common sense knows that's good

302
00:15:09,720 --> 00:15:12,400
Speaker 2: for the country. I mean, I can't believe they misuse

303
00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:14,600
Speaker 2: so many of our dollars doze now up to one

304
00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:18,720
Speaker 2: hundred and fifty billion dollars in savings, It's insane. The

305
00:15:18,760 --> 00:15:22,600
Speaker 2: President getting energy up and running, the thread of tariffs

306
00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:26,120
Speaker 2: resulted in over seven trillion dollars in committed investment in

307
00:15:26,160 --> 00:15:31,400
Speaker 2: this country and manufacturing and in the auto industry, Apple

308
00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:34,920
Speaker 2: semiconductor chips, and we've listed.

309
00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:36,280
Speaker 1: That day in and day out.

310
00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:40,000
Speaker 2: And one way you can save money and not sacrifice

311
00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:42,360
Speaker 2: service make the switch to my cell phone provider. And

312
00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:44,840
Speaker 2: that's pure talk. And here's the beauty of it. You

313
00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:47,520
Speaker 2: get the same exact service. How's that Because they have

314
00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:50,760
Speaker 2: the same exact cell towers, the same exact five G network,

315
00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:53,480
Speaker 2: and you get the same service. And the average family

316
00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:56,680
Speaker 2: saves over one thousand dollars a year. Now, these big

317
00:15:56,760 --> 00:15:59,720
Speaker 2: carriers AT and T, Verizon, T Mobile, they try to

318
00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:03,720
Speaker 2: suck you in. We're going to give you a free phone. Okay,

319
00:16:03,800 --> 00:16:05,840
Speaker 2: then you got to read the fine print. Do they

320
00:16:05,920 --> 00:16:08,360
Speaker 2: require you to sign up for four lines? Do they

321
00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:11,240
Speaker 2: have a huge activation fee? Are you going to pay

322
00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:13,840
Speaker 2: over one hundred dollars a month for service that you'll

323
00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:16,440
Speaker 2: never ever be able to use in a million years.

324
00:16:17,240 --> 00:16:19,320
Speaker 2: There's a better way, and you can get your free

338
00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:06,000
Speaker 2: by Americans for Americans. All Right, So we're now in

339
00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:09,439
Speaker 2: the midst of and I think you really sum this

340
00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:14,000
Speaker 2: up in a way that this week President Trump changed

341
00:17:14,320 --> 00:17:19,119
Speaker 2: everything as it relates to trade worldwide. The old way

342
00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:22,640
Speaker 2: of doing things is now officially over. In other words,

343
00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:26,840
Speaker 2: ripping off America, abusing America, taking advantage of America.

344
00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:28,080
Speaker 1: That's it.

345
00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:33,200
Speaker 2: And he was able to reverse what is a fifty

346
00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:39,040
Speaker 2: sixty year I don't know, institutionalist, you know mindset that

347
00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:42,360
Speaker 2: somehow we're going to allow even allied countries to take

348
00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:46,480
Speaker 2: advantage of us. And it is now going to result.

349
00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:49,200
Speaker 2: And we have seventy five countries that want trade deals.

350
00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:52,679
Speaker 2: They want them immediately. He's calling out China in the

351
00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:56,160
Speaker 2: biggest way. And China is the worst abuser of them all.

352
00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:58,159
Speaker 2: We've gone through the list over and over again on

353
00:17:58,240 --> 00:18:01,679
Speaker 2: how bad they are and how they mistreated the American people.

354
00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:06,040
Speaker 2: So here's President Trump that we saved us steel. He

355
00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:10,080
Speaker 2: also saved the auto industry, the energy sector. Anyway, here's

356
00:18:10,119 --> 00:18:13,440
Speaker 2: the President talking about, for example, one industry, the steel industry.

357
00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:16,280
Speaker 4: We have steel mills right now that are raging.

358
00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:18,360
Speaker 1: The steel industry has gone.

359
00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:21,399
Speaker 4: If I didn't put the tariffs on steel because China

360
00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:24,000
Speaker 4: was dumping massive amounts of steel in my first term,

361
00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:26,480
Speaker 4: and I put tariffs on I saved the steel industry.

362
00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:30,040
Speaker 4: But now it's going to thrive maybe like never before.

363
00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:32,160
Speaker 4: I mean, if you go back to US Steel from

364
00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:34,439
Speaker 4: ninety years ago, was see credible as the number one

365
00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:36,359
Speaker 4: company in the world for.

366
00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:36,560
Speaker 1: A long time.

367
00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:38,520
Speaker 4: That's why we don't want to see it go to Japan.

368
00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:41,399
Speaker 4: And we love Japan, but we you know, US Steel

369
00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:44,720
Speaker 4: was a very special company. We don't want it to

370
00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:47,919
Speaker 4: go to Japan or any other place. So we're working

371
00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:49,920
Speaker 4: with them, and you know, I don't know if they

372
00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:52,200
Speaker 4: need any money now, I'll be honest with you. There

373
00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:55,680
Speaker 4: they hit gold. They hit gold because if you look

374
00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:59,359
Speaker 4: at it, they have such orders for steel.

375
00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:03,320
Speaker 2: Now it's in joining us to discuss this is Selena Gazito,

376
00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:07,200
Speaker 2: who's the national political reporter for the Washington Examiner, and

377
00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:11,320
Speaker 2: she has been spending a great deal of time going

378
00:19:11,359 --> 00:19:14,440
Speaker 2: out among the great people in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.

379
00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:16,880
Speaker 2: When you think of Pennsylvania, you think of the steel industry.

380
00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:19,120
Speaker 2: When you think of Pennsylvania, you think of fracking. When

381
00:19:19,119 --> 00:19:22,640
Speaker 2: you think of Pennsylvania, you think of the hard working

382
00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:26,760
Speaker 2: men and women that make this country great. They get

383
00:19:26,840 --> 00:19:29,080
Speaker 2: up every day, work hard, play by the rules, pay

384
00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:32,640
Speaker 2: their taxes, put in their twelve fourteen, sixteen hours, they

385
00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:34,920
Speaker 2: take care of their kids, They go to church on Sunday,

386
00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:38,480
Speaker 2: and they grind it out and they make the country

387
00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:40,520
Speaker 2: great and they provide the things that we need. Now

388
00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:44,040
Speaker 2: their lives are about to get that much easier, especially

389
00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:46,200
Speaker 2: if you're in the steel industry, or if you're in

390
00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:50,680
Speaker 2: if you're in the energy sector. And Selena, to her credit,

391
00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:53,320
Speaker 2: I can't even tell you how many thousands of mileles

392
00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:56,240
Speaker 2: she's put on her car, has been going all around

393
00:19:56,240 --> 00:20:01,200
Speaker 2: the state, more specifically recently visiting a a steel plant.

394
00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:03,320
Speaker 2: She sent me pictures of it and then she put

395
00:20:03,359 --> 00:20:07,119
Speaker 2: them online on x It's pretty amazing what's happening. But

396
00:20:07,160 --> 00:20:10,800
Speaker 2: she's been talking to all of the American workers who

397
00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:14,560
Speaker 2: now have a president that is championing them, which goes

398
00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:18,119
Speaker 2: to my other point, which is the Republican Party is

399
00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:20,920
Speaker 2: now the party of working men and women in America.

400
00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:25,520
Speaker 2: These are the presidents standing up for high paying career

401
00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:28,959
Speaker 2: jobs for Americans. If you talk about Wall Street versus

402
00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:31,840
Speaker 2: Main Street, he's sticking with Main Street. If you talk

403
00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:34,760
Speaker 2: about the Democratic Party, you know they're standing up and

404
00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:37,800
Speaker 2: championing the right of men to play women's sports, the

405
00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:41,320
Speaker 2: right of illegal immigrants over the safety of Americans. You know,

406
00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:45,800
Speaker 2: they screen bloody murder. It's a constitutional crisis if you

407
00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:48,719
Speaker 2: cut out waste, fraud, and abuse. I mean, there has

408
00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:54,200
Speaker 2: never been a greater distinction between the two visions, competing

409
00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:57,120
Speaker 2: visions for the country anyway. Selena's siding with working men

410
00:20:57,160 --> 00:20:59,800
Speaker 2: and women, the great people of Pennsylvania who happened a

411
00:20:59,840 --> 00:21:02,040
Speaker 2: lot a lot, and respect a lot anybody that works

412
00:21:02,119 --> 00:21:05,360
Speaker 2: for a living. I respect they make this country great. Delena,

413
00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:07,119
Speaker 2: great work. How are you o?

414
00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:09,800
Speaker 5: Great? Thank you, thank you so much for having me on,

415
00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:14,119
Speaker 5: and thank you for for s showcasing this. You know, Sean,

416
00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:17,320
Speaker 5: as you were talking you you I just had a

417
00:21:17,359 --> 00:21:21,720
Speaker 5: flashpoint of something I remembered about President Trump. It was

418
00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:25,320
Speaker 5: the day. It was the day after he was shot

419
00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:25,960
Speaker 5: in Butler.

420
00:21:26,600 --> 00:21:28,280
Speaker 2: And by the way, you were you were in the

421
00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:31,080
Speaker 2: front row that day. For maybe people that didn't remember

422
00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:32,040
Speaker 2: when you came on the show.

423
00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:35,679
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, I was in the buffer. I was even closer.

424
00:21:36,040 --> 00:21:37,560
Speaker 5: I was only four feet away.

425
00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:39,400
Speaker 1: Crazy, but.

426
00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:43,439
Speaker 5: He said something to me. He said a lot of

427
00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:47,360
Speaker 5: things to me and then the next day, but one

428
00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:49,960
Speaker 5: of the things he said to me really makes remind

429
00:21:50,119 --> 00:21:53,240
Speaker 5: me of why he does what he does. And he said,

430
00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:56,080
Speaker 5: you know, Selena, did you see nobody ran out of

431
00:21:56,119 --> 00:22:00,520
Speaker 5: there meeting the rally? Nobody was There was no panic.

432
00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:06,120
Speaker 5: These these people were poised and they and they handled

433
00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:10,360
Speaker 5: it in a right, in a way that was very dignified.

434
00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:11,000
Speaker 3: Right.

435
00:22:11,119 --> 00:22:13,280
Speaker 5: It could have gone many other ways. There could have

436
00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:16,960
Speaker 5: been a stampede they're good at. There could have been chaos.

437
00:22:17,240 --> 00:22:21,399
Speaker 5: And he said, those are my people. Those are working class,

438
00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:24,440
Speaker 5: the people that work with their hands. Those are my people.

439
00:22:24,480 --> 00:22:29,040
Speaker 5: And I will never forget how they behaved that day,

440
00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:31,320
Speaker 5: meaning yesterday, meaning that day.

441
00:22:32,040 --> 00:22:34,159
Speaker 2: And by the way, you know how I know this

442
00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:38,159
Speaker 2: is true. It was either an hour or ninety minutes

443
00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:40,800
Speaker 2: after the incident. I was able to get him on

444
00:22:40,840 --> 00:22:43,760
Speaker 2: the phone. I've been tipped off by somebody that was there.

445
00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:47,560
Speaker 2: You know, I was, you know, furiously typing everybody that

446
00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:48,640
Speaker 2: I knew that was around him.

447
00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:49,120
Speaker 1: Is the okay?

448
00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:49,440
Speaker 3: I is he?

449
00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:50,040
Speaker 1: Okay? It is he?

450
00:22:50,080 --> 00:22:52,160
Speaker 2: Okay. When I got him on the phone, he said,

451
00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:55,239
Speaker 2: did you notice nobody ever left? They all stayed. That

452
00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:58,199
Speaker 2: was the first thing he said to me, he was

453
00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:02,120
Speaker 2: he's very to say that he.

454
00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:05,439
Speaker 5: Was very Yes, he is very consistent. And in my

455
00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:09,760
Speaker 5: upcoming book, you guys will hear all kinds of incredible conversations,

456
00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:12,719
Speaker 5: but that one, when you're talking about the working class,

457
00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:16,359
Speaker 5: it just reminded me how connected and how much he

458
00:23:16,560 --> 00:23:21,359
Speaker 5: feels he owes the working class. Right. So I was

459
00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:26,040
Speaker 5: in the Urban Work Steel Mill. It is the oldest

460
00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:30,360
Speaker 5: rolling steel mill in the country. It is eighty six

461
00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:33,000
Speaker 5: years old. And I have to tell you, Sean and

462
00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:36,960
Speaker 5: your listeners, it was an honor to be standing there

463
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:40,120
Speaker 5: with these men and women. Right, Everything in that room

464
00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:45,639
Speaker 5: screamed work. The heat, the smell, the sounds, watching people

465
00:23:45,720 --> 00:23:50,320
Speaker 5: doing their jobs just just screamed work. This is a

466
00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:54,880
Speaker 5: place where something big, bigger than self happens. And that's

467
00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:58,080
Speaker 5: how these people feel about their jobs. This isn't a career.

468
00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:02,080
Speaker 5: This is their artisans This is a calling. They make

469
00:24:02,160 --> 00:24:06,240
Speaker 5: things that make Americans lives better, whether it's their appliances

470
00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:10,000
Speaker 5: and their cars, or the roads that they drive over,

471
00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:13,080
Speaker 5: their buildings that they go into, whether they're shopping or

472
00:24:13,119 --> 00:24:13,760
Speaker 5: they're working.

473
00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:16,879
Speaker 2: Right, But I want to expand this out because you

474
00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:20,960
Speaker 2: also went down deep into the ground in a coal

475
00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:23,720
Speaker 2: mine recently to be with those workers, and then you

476
00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:26,639
Speaker 2: were with steel workers, and then you were with people

477
00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:29,280
Speaker 2: in the energy sector and the fracking business.

478
00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:31,560
Speaker 1: You've been all over the state I have.

479
00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:34,840
Speaker 5: I've actually been in a total of sixteen coal mines,

480
00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:42,800
Speaker 5: and again, the very same sentiment, Right, you're powering the country.

481
00:24:42,920 --> 00:24:45,760
Speaker 5: It's the same with the energy. You're powering the country.

482
00:24:45,840 --> 00:24:50,280
Speaker 5: You're making sure the grid is going. And so these

483
00:24:50,320 --> 00:24:53,600
Speaker 5: are the voters, and these are the people that are

484
00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:59,040
Speaker 5: very supportive of tariffs. It is terras have eviscerated a

485
00:24:59,280 --> 00:25:04,960
Speaker 5: manufacturer sector in the industrial Midwest, in Appalachia, but also

486
00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:08,560
Speaker 5: North Carolina, South Carolina, the textiles. I mean, it has

487
00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:13,639
Speaker 5: had an undue burden on the working class. So while

488
00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:18,160
Speaker 5: you may step on social media and watch the sort

489
00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:22,199
Speaker 5: of what I call the very online Democrat and Republican

490
00:25:22,600 --> 00:25:27,440
Speaker 5: who are moaning about their four oh one case, it's

491
00:25:27,480 --> 00:25:29,600
Speaker 5: not as if these guys don't have four oh one

492
00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:33,640
Speaker 5: k's EQO. They do, but they look at it very differently.

493
00:25:34,240 --> 00:25:39,040
Speaker 5: They say, look what we're doing, bringing back manufacturing to

494
00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:42,439
Speaker 5: this country and strengthening it and making things in this

495
00:25:42,560 --> 00:25:46,360
Speaker 5: country is what is best for the next generations. It's

496
00:25:46,440 --> 00:25:50,800
Speaker 5: better for my children, my grandchildren and the generations to come,

497
00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:55,480
Speaker 5: but also my community, and so they have a different worldview.

498
00:25:55,560 --> 00:26:00,360
Speaker 5: They're very willing and this is to a person, very

499
00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:05,159
Speaker 5: very willing to take a hit for it because in

500
00:26:05,200 --> 00:26:08,159
Speaker 5: the long run it is better for the country in

501
00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:10,280
Speaker 5: terms of the four toh one case and the other

502
00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:12,400
Speaker 5: thing I want to really point out because people are

503
00:26:12,440 --> 00:26:16,440
Speaker 5: missing this. The next big race, the next big arms

504
00:26:16,520 --> 00:26:20,159
Speaker 5: race in our country is the race for AI dominance.

505
00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:24,360
Speaker 5: And where are they going to put these AI data centers?

506
00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:30,040
Speaker 5: And they are energy hungry. Who's going to feed that energy? Well,

507
00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:33,919
Speaker 5: they're putting them back in places like Homer City, Indiana,

508
00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:38,760
Speaker 5: where you They just announced last week that they are

509
00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:44,639
Speaker 5: building a natural gas energy complex that is going to

510
00:26:44,680 --> 00:26:51,000
Speaker 5: employ ten thousand people with very good pain jobs, and

511
00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:54,440

Speaker 2: in the steel industry, the energy industry, manufacturing facilities, how

515
00:27:08,200 --> 00:27:11,880
Speaker 2: they're reacting to the President Trump and his new trade policies,

553
00:29:02,360 --> 00:29:05,000
Speaker 2: She's been all over the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, going from

554
00:29:05,040 --> 00:29:07,480
Speaker 2: industry to industry, hard working men and women in the

555
00:29:07,520 --> 00:29:11,960
Speaker 2: steel industry, the energy sector, manufacturing facilities, and she's getting

556
00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:15,920
Speaker 2: their reaction to President Trump standing up for American workers.

557
00:29:16,080 --> 00:29:19,680
Speaker 2: Let me ask you a political question because I look

558
00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:23,960
Speaker 2: at the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania as the salt and look

559
00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:29,200
Speaker 2: at Michigan another example, right, similar bit different, right, different industries,

560
00:29:29,720 --> 00:29:33,920
Speaker 2: but you're talking about blue collar, hard working men and

561
00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:37,480
Speaker 2: women and that have seen their jobs deteriorate and go

562
00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:41,280
Speaker 2: overseas left and right. It was fascinating to see Gretchen

563
00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:44,800
Speaker 2: Whitmer in the Oval office and she's getting hammered because

564
00:29:44,800 --> 00:29:48,880
Speaker 2: she was praised by President Trump. But the question is

565
00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:52,720
Speaker 2: what impact do you think all of this good work

566
00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:55,760
Speaker 2: for working men and women? Well, what impact do you

567
00:29:55,840 --> 00:29:58,880
Speaker 2: think it's going to have on future elections?

568
00:29:59,400 --> 00:30:03,960
Speaker 5: Well, party that is the political party that has the

569
00:30:04,080 --> 00:30:09,240
Speaker 5: support of the working classes, the party that wins, it's that.

570
00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:10,200
Speaker 5: It's that.

571
00:30:10,360 --> 00:30:11,880
Speaker 2: I mean, so it's not going to be the party

572
00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:16,160
Speaker 2: that's championing the right of men to play women's sports

573
00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:19,080
Speaker 2: and the rights of the illegals over the safety of Americans,

574
00:30:19,240 --> 00:30:25,080
Speaker 2: and the party you know that constantly votes against American voters,

575
00:30:25,160 --> 00:30:26,800
Speaker 2: I mean that doesn't even want voter id.

576
00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:30,880
Speaker 5: Look, I talk to a variety of voters in men

577
00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:34,040
Speaker 5: and women in that Steel Plan. They were black, they

578
00:30:34,040 --> 00:30:36,320
Speaker 5: were Hispanic, they were white, They were young, they were

579
00:30:36,360 --> 00:30:39,640
Speaker 5: not so young. They had been Democrats, they had had

580
00:30:40,160 --> 00:30:44,360
Speaker 5: been non political. This has been a game changer and

581
00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:48,280
Speaker 5: has gotten them involved in politics and has had them

582
00:30:48,840 --> 00:30:51,880
Speaker 5: vote Republican, not just at the top of the ticket,

583
00:30:52,160 --> 00:30:54,160
Speaker 5: but all the way to the bottom of the ticket.

584
00:30:54,440 --> 00:30:58,600
Speaker 5: You know, the Republicans did not just win the presidency

585
00:30:58,640 --> 00:31:01,640
Speaker 5: in Pennsylvania. They I also won the US Senate seat

586
00:31:01,840 --> 00:31:05,040
Speaker 5: nobody thought would Bob Casey would lose to.

587
00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:08,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, Dave McCormick, you're right, they also want and the

588
00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:10,080
Speaker 2: case name was huge.

589
00:31:10,640 --> 00:31:15,040
Speaker 5: Yeah. They also won two new new US House seats,

590
00:31:15,360 --> 00:31:18,880
Speaker 5: and they won all three of the statewide elected row

591
00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:24,200
Speaker 5: offices that the state has changed. And we've also dramatically

592
00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:27,120
Speaker 5: changed our party registration in our.

593
00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:29,360
Speaker 2: State, Oh dramatically, And we knew that going and I

594
00:31:29,400 --> 00:31:31,520
Speaker 2: talked to you many times about it. I got to

595
00:31:31,560 --> 00:31:33,680
Speaker 2: give you a lot of credits, Selena. I mean, you

596
00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:37,640
Speaker 2: go down, you get, you know, an old shoe leather

597
00:31:37,720 --> 00:31:41,960
Speaker 2: style reporting, which makes you the great success that you are.

598
00:31:42,120 --> 00:31:44,480
Speaker 2: And we really appreciate you being with us. And thanks

599
00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:47,440
Speaker 2: for that update. I think this is only the beginning.

600
00:31:48,200 --> 00:31:51,880
Speaker 2: The Americans will realize that the Democratic Party is now

601
00:31:51,920 --> 00:31:58,320
Speaker 2: the party of bizarre, weird socialist radicals, elites and Republicans

602
00:31:58,320 --> 00:32:01,160
Speaker 2: now standing up for the eight men and women are

603
00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:04,480
Speaker 2: the hard working men and women in the country. Selena Zidol,

604
00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:07,560
Speaker 2: appreciate it. Thank you,
