WEBVTT - Protecting Trump - September 16th, Hour 3

0:00:00.600 --> 0:00:04.600
<v Speaker 1>Stay right here for our final news roundup and information overload.

0:00:04.680 --> 0:00:07.120
<v Speaker 2>All right, news round up and information Overload hour. Here's

0:00:07.120 --> 0:00:09.480
<v Speaker 2>our toll free telephone number at eight hundred and ninety

0:00:09.480 --> 0:00:11.200
<v Speaker 2>four to one Sean if you want to be a

0:00:11.200 --> 0:00:14.400
<v Speaker 2>part of the program. We are only fifty short days

0:00:14.520 --> 0:00:17.439
<v Speaker 2>till an inflection point in this country. That would be

0:00:17.480 --> 0:00:21.919
<v Speaker 2>election Day, early voting starting now in Pennsylvania, the Commonwealth,

0:00:22.000 --> 0:00:24.600
<v Speaker 2>and we'll be rolling out around the country. I can't

0:00:24.600 --> 0:00:28.400
<v Speaker 2>think of a more important moment choice election for the history,

0:00:28.480 --> 0:00:30.600
<v Speaker 2>for the future of our country. I can't think of

0:00:30.640 --> 0:00:35.160
<v Speaker 2>a more radicalized candidate that has been unvetted, ignored by

0:00:35.320 --> 0:00:39.000
<v Speaker 2>a complicit, corrupt media, and then of course other forces

0:00:39.080 --> 0:00:42.040
<v Speaker 2>like big tech et cetera, et cetera. Kamalist still never

0:00:42.240 --> 0:00:46.840
<v Speaker 2>answering partning questions about her radical position on no restrictions

0:00:46.840 --> 0:00:49.839
<v Speaker 2>at all in abortion and mandatory gun buybacks and no

0:00:50.000 --> 0:00:54.560
<v Speaker 2>border walls and decriminalizing illegal immigration, offering free housing and

0:00:54.720 --> 0:00:58.520
<v Speaker 2>healthcare and education, and even a legal driver's license Minnesota,

0:00:58.600 --> 0:01:01.960
<v Speaker 2>free free college that you pay for, then a path

0:01:02.000 --> 0:01:05.759
<v Speaker 2>to citizenship, and on top of that, taxpayer funded sex

0:01:05.840 --> 0:01:09.600
<v Speaker 2>change operations for not only illegals, but for convicts as well,

0:01:10.200 --> 0:01:13.600
<v Speaker 2>her position on federal drug possession for personal use. That

0:01:13.640 --> 0:01:17.720
<v Speaker 2>would mean hard drugs like crack, heroin, cocaine, fentanyl. Her

0:01:17.920 --> 0:01:21.280
<v Speaker 2>ninety three trillion dollar gree New Deal, which he sponsored,

0:01:21.280 --> 0:01:24.880
<v Speaker 2>co sponsored with Bernie Sanders. Eliminate the filibuster to get

0:01:24.880 --> 0:01:27.280
<v Speaker 2>it passed. That would be the end of capitalism as

0:01:27.280 --> 0:01:30.440
<v Speaker 2>we know it. Her government healthcare for all, elimination of

0:01:30.480 --> 0:01:33.320
<v Speaker 2>private health insurance. You know, don't say the word radical,

0:01:33.360 --> 0:01:36.480
<v Speaker 2>Islamic terrorism or illegal alien. And then of course raise

0:01:36.560 --> 0:01:40.040
<v Speaker 2>every tax imaginable. Never mind her support for the insurrection

0:01:40.160 --> 0:01:43.080
<v Speaker 2>and rioting six hundred rides in the summer of twenty twenty.

0:01:43.120 --> 0:01:46.640
<v Speaker 2>It is insane. And that's just a part partial list. Anyway,

0:01:46.640 --> 0:01:49.760
<v Speaker 2>we've been talking a lot about the second now assassination

0:01:49.880 --> 0:01:53.240
<v Speaker 2>attempt against President Trump. This is taking place at Trump

0:01:53.320 --> 0:01:57.000
<v Speaker 2>International Golf Course in West Palm Beach in Florida. And

0:01:57.480 --> 0:02:00.240
<v Speaker 2>the person that was playing golf with them happened to

0:02:00.280 --> 0:02:03.680
<v Speaker 2>be a personal friend of mine. I even had breakfast

0:02:03.720 --> 0:02:06.120
<v Speaker 2>with him and another friend of ours, another guy that

0:02:06.320 --> 0:02:09.200
<v Speaker 2>was with us. I don't think he's way more private.

0:02:09.280 --> 0:02:12.520
<v Speaker 2>He didn't play in the golf game, but Steve Whitkoff

0:02:12.840 --> 0:02:15.600
<v Speaker 2>was there watched the entire thing go down. He is

0:02:15.639 --> 0:02:21.400
<v Speaker 2>a real estate investor, developer, incredibly successful, extremely an extraordinarily

0:02:21.720 --> 0:02:25.200
<v Speaker 2>nice and generous human being. He's the founder, chairman CEO

0:02:25.400 --> 0:02:29.119
<v Speaker 2>of the Witcough Group. Was with President with the President

0:02:29.320 --> 0:02:33.240
<v Speaker 2>playing golf when this assassination attempt occurred. I talked to

0:02:33.280 --> 0:02:37.560
<v Speaker 2>him many times immediately in the aftermath. I did, by

0:02:37.560 --> 0:02:39.960
<v Speaker 2>the way, by the call you, Steve Win once on TV.

0:02:40.080 --> 0:02:42.919
<v Speaker 2>I got to apologize for that. It was a rushed

0:02:42.960 --> 0:02:45.400
<v Speaker 2>moment on television. I apologize to you for that.

0:02:46.600 --> 0:02:46.920
<v Speaker 3>All right.

0:02:46.960 --> 0:02:49.200
<v Speaker 2>So we have breakfasts together and you were kind of

0:02:49.480 --> 0:02:51.959
<v Speaker 2>like saying, well, why don't you just come play now? Meanwhile,

0:02:52.080 --> 0:02:54.760
<v Speaker 2>the President is close to scratch in terms of a golfer.

0:02:54.840 --> 0:02:57.760
<v Speaker 2>You're I think close to scratch as well. And I'm like,

0:02:57.800 --> 0:02:58.640
<v Speaker 2>I'm not playing with you.

0:02:58.639 --> 0:02:58.880
<v Speaker 3>Guys.

0:02:58.919 --> 0:03:01.680
<v Speaker 2>You're much better than I am, and you probably wouldn't

0:03:01.680 --> 0:03:03.840
<v Speaker 2>want to play with somebody that you know doesn't get

0:03:03.840 --> 0:03:06.680
<v Speaker 2>to play very often. But I will take you up

0:03:06.720 --> 0:03:08.880
<v Speaker 2>on that offer in the future for sure. But walk

0:03:08.960 --> 0:03:11.760
<v Speaker 2>us through you you meet with the President, you go

0:03:11.840 --> 0:03:14.800
<v Speaker 2>out to play some golf, tell us every walk us

0:03:14.840 --> 0:03:15.880
<v Speaker 2>through every detail.

0:03:16.000 --> 0:03:19.240
<v Speaker 1>Well, you know, you and I had had that breakfast

0:03:18.760 --> 0:03:22.080
<v Speaker 1>at City Diner. It was pretty fabulous. I think it

0:03:22.080 --> 0:03:24.440
<v Speaker 1>would have been great if if you had been out

0:03:24.480 --> 0:03:26.840
<v Speaker 1>on the course with us, and not not to witness

0:03:26.880 --> 0:03:29.880
<v Speaker 1>this shooting, but more because you're just a great guy

0:03:29.880 --> 0:03:31.760
<v Speaker 1>who wouldn't want to spend time on the golf course

0:03:31.760 --> 0:03:34.240
<v Speaker 1>with Sean Hannity. And I think the President would feel

0:03:34.280 --> 0:03:36.320
<v Speaker 1>exactly as I do about that.

0:03:36.560 --> 0:03:38.440
<v Speaker 3>But the feeling, the feeling is mutual.

0:03:38.480 --> 0:03:40.000
<v Speaker 2>By the way, You're one of the nicest guys I've

0:03:40.040 --> 0:03:42.720
<v Speaker 2>ever met, one of the most generous, and so is

0:03:42.720 --> 0:03:43.360
<v Speaker 2>our other friend.

0:03:43.400 --> 0:03:45.600
<v Speaker 3>But you know, when you call me, I was in

0:03:45.640 --> 0:03:48.400
<v Speaker 3>a state of shock. Steve. I'm like, not again, Please

0:03:48.440 --> 0:03:49.800
<v Speaker 3>tell me God, not again.

0:03:50.200 --> 0:03:52.960
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, you know, Sean, You know, the President was an

0:03:53.000 --> 0:03:56.840
<v Speaker 1>amazing athlete. He played football. He was a great tennis player.

0:03:57.080 --> 0:03:59.280
<v Speaker 1>But at this stage of his life a lot of

0:03:59.320 --> 0:04:02.880
<v Speaker 1>people played They switch from these other sports that they've

0:04:02.880 --> 0:04:05.800
<v Speaker 1>done and they play golf, and he uses it as

0:04:05.800 --> 0:04:08.800
<v Speaker 1>a decompression tool. I think about all the well, the

0:04:08.920 --> 0:04:11.400
<v Speaker 1>tension he has in his life, particularly with what he's

0:04:11.400 --> 0:04:14.520
<v Speaker 1>had to endure for the last several years being vilified.

0:04:15.480 --> 0:04:20.880
<v Speaker 1>I mean, to me, his active public service in becoming

0:04:20.880 --> 0:04:23.360
<v Speaker 1>the president of the United States, or to be commended.

0:04:23.400 --> 0:04:28.120
<v Speaker 1>And yet in this crazy time, he's vilified, he's conspired against,

0:04:28.160 --> 0:04:31.800
<v Speaker 1>he's wrongly accused, in my opinion, in every one of

0:04:31.839 --> 0:04:34.839
<v Speaker 1>these cases. And so for him to get out on

0:04:34.880 --> 0:04:37.760
<v Speaker 1>a golf course is a time for him to decompress.

0:04:38.400 --> 0:04:41.279
<v Speaker 1>And I love playing with him. We just have a

0:04:41.320 --> 0:04:46.400
<v Speaker 1>wonderful time together. And so there it is, this beautiful

0:04:46.400 --> 0:04:52.520
<v Speaker 1>golf course. It's hot, it's humid, but we're enjoying ourselves

0:04:52.839 --> 0:04:55.800
<v Speaker 1>and nothing bad is supposed to happen. And out of

0:04:55.839 --> 0:04:58.720
<v Speaker 1>the blue, I hear the first shot. The Secret Service

0:04:58.920 --> 0:05:02.760
<v Speaker 1>was things short of incredible. You would think that they

0:05:02.800 --> 0:05:06.160
<v Speaker 1>had practiced an evacuation like this five hundred times before.

0:05:06.760 --> 0:05:11.080
<v Speaker 1>And I say to the entire team, Sean who was

0:05:11.760 --> 0:05:14.159
<v Speaker 1>right there that day, and to the agent in charge,

0:05:14.520 --> 0:05:19.320
<v Speaker 1>that that team was very, very well prepared. And that's

0:05:19.360 --> 0:05:21.680
<v Speaker 1>how it began. And then in quick succession there were

0:05:21.720 --> 0:05:25.080
<v Speaker 1>three other shots, but they had him out of there quick,

0:05:25.680 --> 0:05:28.800
<v Speaker 1>and all I could hear and see, first of all,

0:05:28.839 --> 0:05:31.599
<v Speaker 1>he was looking back at us. And I mean that

0:05:32.360 --> 0:05:35.880
<v Speaker 1>I stood up the entire time. Maybe I dropped reckless

0:05:35.920 --> 0:05:37.680
<v Speaker 1>on my part, Maybe I should have got behind the

0:05:37.680 --> 0:05:40.400
<v Speaker 1>golf cart, but for some reason I stood up and

0:05:40.640 --> 0:05:43.640
<v Speaker 1>was looking at the corner of the golf course where

0:05:43.760 --> 0:05:47.080
<v Speaker 1>clearly the shooter was, because they were agents on top

0:05:47.080 --> 0:05:49.400
<v Speaker 1>of him almost immediately. And then of course we found

0:05:49.440 --> 0:05:52.159
<v Speaker 1>out that it was the It was an agent running

0:05:52.720 --> 0:05:55.480
<v Speaker 1>in front of us who was in charge of scanning

0:05:55.520 --> 0:05:58.720
<v Speaker 1>the perimeter of the course, in the hole that was

0:05:58.920 --> 0:06:01.000
<v Speaker 1>in front of any hole we might be playing. It

0:06:01.040 --> 0:06:03.840
<v Speaker 1>was him who identified him, and that's where the shots

0:06:03.880 --> 0:06:06.480
<v Speaker 1>came from. And so that was the beginning of it.

0:06:06.600 --> 0:06:10.920
<v Speaker 2>So when the first shot goes off of my understanding

0:06:10.920 --> 0:06:13.440
<v Speaker 2>what you told me yesterday, you heard pop, pop, pop,

0:06:13.600 --> 0:06:16.440
<v Speaker 2>and then another pop pop. You've heard four shots at

0:06:16.480 --> 0:06:19.600
<v Speaker 2>the time, you knew immediately was a gunshot. Yes, And

0:06:19.880 --> 0:06:23.360
<v Speaker 2>when that happened, immediately you see the Secret Service around

0:06:23.480 --> 0:06:27.800
<v Speaker 2>him jump into action, and I assume, and based on

0:06:27.839 --> 0:06:30.320
<v Speaker 2>what you told me, they jumped on him, covered him.

0:06:30.360 --> 0:06:32.640
<v Speaker 2>In other words, they put their life on the lining

0:06:32.720 --> 0:06:34.720
<v Speaker 2>case he is being shot at, they're going to take

0:06:34.720 --> 0:06:35.480
<v Speaker 2>the bullet for him.

0:06:35.520 --> 0:06:41.359
<v Speaker 1>Right. There's no mistaking that they one surrounded him. They

0:06:41.400 --> 0:06:43.240
<v Speaker 1>had him on the ground, so he was out of

0:06:43.240 --> 0:06:47.479
<v Speaker 1>the line of fire. They were on him. They put

0:06:47.520 --> 0:06:52.240
<v Speaker 1>him in a independently an independent card that was faster

0:06:52.360 --> 0:06:54.599
<v Speaker 1>than the others, and they had their lives on the

0:06:54.640 --> 0:06:56.479
<v Speaker 1>line at every moment. And by the way, the two

0:06:56.480 --> 0:06:59.800
<v Speaker 1>snipers who were three and half four yards away from me.

0:07:00.240 --> 0:07:02.120
<v Speaker 3>You mean the Secret Service nippers.

0:07:01.920 --> 0:07:05.760
<v Speaker 1>The Secret Service nippers with tripods out, were immediately down

0:07:05.800 --> 0:07:08.800
<v Speaker 1>on the ground, but fully exposed because they were there

0:07:08.880 --> 0:07:12.480
<v Speaker 1>to contain gunfire if they had to, and they were

0:07:12.560 --> 0:07:15.240
<v Speaker 1>down on the ground right there. I was no more

0:07:15.280 --> 0:07:18.360
<v Speaker 1>than four yards away from them, and I just stood up.

0:07:18.560 --> 0:07:21.760
<v Speaker 1>I must tell you. I know I've had this discussion

0:07:21.760 --> 0:07:24.560
<v Speaker 1>with people. I'm like, maybe a drop reckless, but I

0:07:24.640 --> 0:07:27.440
<v Speaker 1>never really thought about getting down on the ground. I

0:07:27.560 --> 0:07:31.600
<v Speaker 1>just was mesmerized. Well, this operation, I know.

0:07:31.560 --> 0:07:35.160
<v Speaker 2>You said that to me, and I don't think anyone

0:07:35.200 --> 0:07:38.360
<v Speaker 2>would ever be prepared for such a moment, especially because

0:07:38.360 --> 0:07:41.400
<v Speaker 2>you're not a public figure or a controversial figure that

0:07:42.280 --> 0:07:45.960
<v Speaker 2>leads your life needing security every day. So it's this

0:07:46.040 --> 0:07:47.960
<v Speaker 2>is not the world that you live in, Thank god.

0:07:48.000 --> 0:07:49.760
<v Speaker 2>I don't think you'd want to live in that every day.

0:07:49.840 --> 0:07:52.160
<v Speaker 2>I don't like that the president has to live in

0:07:52.160 --> 0:07:55.520
<v Speaker 2>it every day. And so they very quickly get them out.

0:07:55.560 --> 0:07:57.440
<v Speaker 2>They have this other golf cart to get them off

0:07:57.480 --> 0:08:00.880
<v Speaker 2>that is a lot faster and safer than the usual

0:08:00.960 --> 0:08:04.440
<v Speaker 2>golf cart. What happens now? Did you know the direction

0:08:04.560 --> 0:08:06.600
<v Speaker 2>where the shots came from immediately? Did you have a

0:08:06.600 --> 0:08:07.360
<v Speaker 2>pretty good idea?

0:08:07.600 --> 0:08:12.160
<v Speaker 1>Oh, it was very clear. Yeah. The Secret Service snipers

0:08:12.240 --> 0:08:15.400
<v Speaker 1>had their barrels pointed towards the corner of the golf

0:08:15.440 --> 0:08:19.160
<v Speaker 1>course by Congress Avenue. There was a card out there,

0:08:19.200 --> 0:08:23.880
<v Speaker 1>so an advanced Secret Service agent or a detail had

0:08:23.920 --> 0:08:30.120
<v Speaker 1>already gotten out there. And there was also a person

0:08:30.240 --> 0:08:32.400
<v Speaker 1>I saw on the other side of the tree line

0:08:32.440 --> 0:08:35.880
<v Speaker 1>who was now, as I understand it, another Secret Service

0:08:35.920 --> 0:08:39.040
<v Speaker 1>agent whose job it was to scan the outside perimeter.

0:08:39.640 --> 0:08:42.680
<v Speaker 1>He had evidently just passed the area and just missed

0:08:42.760 --> 0:08:45.240
<v Speaker 1>finding the guy. It was the guy on the It

0:08:45.280 --> 0:08:48.079
<v Speaker 1>was the agent on the inside of the tree line, Sean,

0:08:48.360 --> 0:08:51.559
<v Speaker 1>who's in charge of following forward from us, who identified

0:08:51.559 --> 0:08:54.360
<v Speaker 1>the barrel sticking out of the fence, and he's the

0:08:54.400 --> 0:08:57.960
<v Speaker 1>one who engaged the assassin.

0:08:58.240 --> 0:08:59.240
<v Speaker 3>What happened next?

0:09:00.320 --> 0:09:03.319
<v Speaker 2>I understand that the golf course was cleared, but obviously

0:09:03.559 --> 0:09:05.600
<v Speaker 2>you were the first to be cleared because you were

0:09:05.640 --> 0:09:08.720
<v Speaker 2>closest to the road, which we now know is about

0:09:08.720 --> 0:09:11.800
<v Speaker 2>three hundred yards away from the hole that you were playing.

0:09:12.200 --> 0:09:14.559
<v Speaker 2>My understanding is a is a par three followed by

0:09:14.600 --> 0:09:15.960
<v Speaker 2>a driveable par four?

0:09:16.040 --> 0:09:16.680
<v Speaker 3>Is that correct?

0:09:16.960 --> 0:09:22.640
<v Speaker 1>Yes? Yes, the President was evacuated. But I watched him.

0:09:22.840 --> 0:09:25.080
<v Speaker 1>He was looking back at us. I was there with

0:09:25.120 --> 0:09:28.440
<v Speaker 1>the two other members of our group, civilians, and it

0:09:28.559 --> 0:09:30.960
<v Speaker 1>was clear that he was looking at us. He was

0:09:31.000 --> 0:09:33.320
<v Speaker 1>wanting to make sure that we were okay. I could

0:09:33.360 --> 0:09:36.680
<v Speaker 1>he see him gesturing, and but he was gone. And

0:09:36.880 --> 0:09:38.920
<v Speaker 1>you know, that's their job. Their job is to protect

0:09:38.920 --> 0:09:42.680
<v Speaker 1>the president first, and they did their job impeccably quick.

0:09:42.679 --> 0:09:46.600
<v Speaker 2>Break right back more with Steve Woodcoffe, real estate developer, investor,

0:09:46.800 --> 0:09:49.280
<v Speaker 2>and he was playing golf with President Trump during this

0:09:49.320 --> 0:09:52.959
<v Speaker 2>assassination attempt yesterday. This is his first interview, his first

0:09:52.960 --> 0:09:55.840
<v Speaker 2>televised interview tonight on Hannity on the Fox News channels.

0:09:56.280 --> 0:09:58.760
<v Speaker 2>Look the FBI calls at house stealing. I've been telling

0:09:58.760 --> 0:10:01.720
<v Speaker 2>you about this for over a year. Well to continue.

0:10:01.760 --> 0:10:04.000
<v Speaker 2>He's a friend of mine and I had just had

0:10:04.000 --> 0:10:07.200
<v Speaker 2>breakfast with him before he played golf yesterday with President

0:10:07.200 --> 0:10:12.760
<v Speaker 2>Trump before the assassination attempts. Steve Whitkoff, developer, real estate investor,

0:10:12.920 --> 0:10:17.520
<v Speaker 2>founder chairman CEO Witcough Group. As we continue, now, you

0:10:17.559 --> 0:10:20.160
<v Speaker 2>saw all of this activity going on, and you had

0:10:20.200 --> 0:10:25.640
<v Speaker 2>these Secret Service snipers with their tripods up, and you're right,

0:10:25.640 --> 0:10:28.960
<v Speaker 2>they're out there in an open field, which makes them

0:10:29.000 --> 0:10:32.199
<v Speaker 2>an open target. And yet they moved and they again

0:10:32.280 --> 0:10:34.360
<v Speaker 2>they put their lives on the line for the president,

0:10:34.920 --> 0:10:37.920
<v Speaker 2>which is all commendable. So you finally make it back

0:10:37.920 --> 0:10:39.960
<v Speaker 2>to the White House and you had said to me,

0:10:40.040 --> 0:10:42.840
<v Speaker 2>he was specifically asking where are you and where are

0:10:42.880 --> 0:10:45.079
<v Speaker 2>the other people you were with? And then you were

0:10:45.080 --> 0:10:46.760
<v Speaker 2>like right behind him, and I said, I'm right here.

0:10:46.920 --> 0:10:51.520
<v Speaker 1>That happened, correct, it did, Sean. I must tell you

0:10:51.760 --> 0:10:54.000
<v Speaker 1>know him very well, as you know him as well

0:10:54.000 --> 0:10:57.439
<v Speaker 1>as I do. He was selfless. It's almost as if

0:10:57.679 --> 0:11:00.880
<v Speaker 1>he and it's not almost as if it is it

0:11:00.880 --> 0:11:03.680
<v Speaker 1>It is as if he was more concerned about me,

0:11:03.920 --> 0:11:06.400
<v Speaker 1>and he's demonstrated this countless times, by the way, but

0:11:06.440 --> 0:11:08.560
<v Speaker 1>he was concerned more about me and his two other

0:11:08.640 --> 0:11:10.960
<v Speaker 1>friends who were out there, and other people included. There

0:11:10.960 --> 0:11:13.160
<v Speaker 1>were staffers out there, by the way, who were not

0:11:13.440 --> 0:11:17.319
<v Speaker 1>armed and trained to be involved in this sort of situation,

0:11:17.880 --> 0:11:20.480
<v Speaker 1>and he was concerned about all of those people who

0:11:20.480 --> 0:11:23.360
<v Speaker 1>were in his entourage. I think more concerned about them

0:11:23.360 --> 0:11:26.120
<v Speaker 1>than he was about his own life. Candidly well, and.

0:11:26.720 --> 0:11:31.400
<v Speaker 2>At that point you told me another story that he

0:11:31.520 --> 0:11:34.920
<v Speaker 2>walked around and he thanked everybody that was there, all

0:11:34.960 --> 0:11:36.240
<v Speaker 2>the Secret Service guys.

0:11:36.960 --> 0:11:38.360
<v Speaker 3>What to describe what happened?

0:11:38.440 --> 0:11:42.960
<v Speaker 1>Well, you know, he's an inspiration because you know, this

0:11:43.040 --> 0:11:46.080
<v Speaker 1>is the second time in two months. It's sort of

0:11:46.120 --> 0:11:50.040
<v Speaker 1>like enough already, Like we lived through the sixties when

0:11:50.080 --> 0:11:53.560
<v Speaker 1>they assassinated Jack and Bobby Kennedy. Who would ever think

0:11:53.559 --> 0:11:55.880
<v Speaker 1>in this country, in this day and age that we

0:11:55.920 --> 0:11:59.000
<v Speaker 1>would have something like this again. But two times, two

0:11:59.040 --> 0:12:02.760
<v Speaker 1>attempts with shots going off. If this Secret Service agent

0:12:03.040 --> 0:12:06.520
<v Speaker 1>didn't interdect, interdict, it is clear to me that that

0:12:07.000 --> 0:12:08.920
<v Speaker 1>he had it. He can't. He had an in AK

0:12:09.040 --> 0:12:12.320
<v Speaker 1>forty seven with probably a bananacl affinity, could have posed

0:12:12.360 --> 0:12:16.280
<v Speaker 1>down everybody on the green. So, you know, I can't

0:12:16.320 --> 0:12:19.120
<v Speaker 1>say it enough. Great job by the Secret Service, but

0:12:19.640 --> 0:12:22.640
<v Speaker 1>and great job in protecting the president. And he deserves

0:12:22.679 --> 0:12:26.120
<v Speaker 1>to be protected. First, he's got he's got the when

0:12:26.120 --> 0:12:28.440
<v Speaker 1>he gets elected, he's going to have the most important job.

0:12:28.600 --> 0:12:31.480
<v Speaker 1>But when we got back to the clubhouse, the first

0:12:31.520 --> 0:12:34.520
<v Speaker 1>thing I heard was where is everybody? He was he was,

0:12:34.760 --> 0:12:37.920
<v Speaker 1>he was inquiring because we came back after the Secret

0:12:38.000 --> 0:12:41.400
<v Speaker 1>Service evacuated their Their mission statement is to get him

0:12:41.400 --> 0:12:44.800
<v Speaker 1>out of the field of fire instantaneously, and they did

0:12:44.800 --> 0:12:46.120
<v Speaker 1>that job impeccably.

0:12:46.360 --> 0:12:49.360
<v Speaker 2>Now we mean that when you get back and he

0:12:49.440 --> 0:12:51.119
<v Speaker 2>realizes everybody's safe.

0:12:50.840 --> 0:12:53.280
<v Speaker 1>What happened, he went around to every single one of

0:12:53.280 --> 0:12:55.520
<v Speaker 1>the guys and said, thank you for your service, thank

0:12:55.559 --> 0:12:58.160
<v Speaker 1>you for doing thank you for protecting my friends, thank

0:12:58.200 --> 0:13:01.320
<v Speaker 1>you for protecting me. He he's a man of the people.

0:13:01.440 --> 0:13:07.720
<v Speaker 1>He is. It's inspiring to watch his interaction with people

0:13:07.720 --> 0:13:11.720
<v Speaker 1>who were paid probably not enough to save to protect

0:13:11.720 --> 0:13:14.480
<v Speaker 1>his life and to save his life and circumstances like this,

0:13:15.080 --> 0:13:18.000
<v Speaker 1>and he is so genuine and authentic in his praise

0:13:18.040 --> 0:13:18.760
<v Speaker 1>to these people.

0:13:19.120 --> 0:13:19.480
<v Speaker 3>Uh.

0:13:19.520 --> 0:13:21.640
<v Speaker 1>And he does it all the time. It's it's who

0:13:21.679 --> 0:13:24.520
<v Speaker 1>he is. I wrote, his wife is right. His wife

0:13:24.760 --> 0:13:28.560
<v Speaker 1>Alanya texted me and I wrote her that her husband

0:13:28.600 --> 0:13:31.000
<v Speaker 1>inspires me. And he does. He inspires me.

0:13:31.160 --> 0:13:32.360
<v Speaker 3>It really is amazing.

0:13:32.600 --> 0:13:36.960
<v Speaker 2>And then when when everything settled and I was on

0:13:37.000 --> 0:13:39.400
<v Speaker 2>the phone with both of you, and I did report

0:13:39.440 --> 0:13:41.800
<v Speaker 2>this on Fox when I was on yesterday again, I

0:13:41.840 --> 0:13:45.120
<v Speaker 2>apologize once for calling Steve Winn, who's also a friend

0:13:45.160 --> 0:13:45.680
<v Speaker 2>of mine too.

0:13:46.880 --> 0:13:49.520
<v Speaker 1>I'm pretty good guy to be to be to be

0:13:49.600 --> 0:13:51.160
<v Speaker 1>called yeah.

0:13:51.000 --> 0:13:53.000
<v Speaker 3>Well you're pretty great, and you're in your own way.

0:13:53.400 --> 0:13:54.360
<v Speaker 3>And at that.

0:13:54.400 --> 0:13:56.760
<v Speaker 2>Point in time when anything, everything was settled in me

0:13:56.800 --> 0:13:59.319
<v Speaker 2>and thank everybody knew, everybody was safe, knew that the

0:13:59.640 --> 0:14:03.000
<v Speaker 2>incident it was under control. Then I'm on the phone

0:14:03.040 --> 0:14:06.199
<v Speaker 2>with both of you, and then he's like Donald Trump.

0:14:06.280 --> 0:14:08.520
<v Speaker 2>After Butler, he got up and he said fight, fight, fight,

0:14:08.760 --> 0:14:11.520
<v Speaker 2>and then he said, Steve, will you please tell Shawn.

0:14:11.600 --> 0:14:13.800
<v Speaker 2>I was even up until the fifth hole, and then

0:14:13.840 --> 0:14:15.559
<v Speaker 2>I was putting for Bertie and I really wanted to

0:14:15.600 --> 0:14:16.440
<v Speaker 2>finish that butt.

0:14:16.520 --> 0:14:16.720
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:14:16.720 --> 0:14:19.960
<v Speaker 2>I mean to me, it should most people probably be

0:14:20.160 --> 0:14:21.960
<v Speaker 2>crawled up at a ball by that time.

0:14:22.200 --> 0:14:26.080
<v Speaker 1>Well, you would You would think that after two attempts

0:14:26.160 --> 0:14:28.960
<v Speaker 1>on his life in a two month, you know, inside

0:14:29.000 --> 0:14:31.200
<v Speaker 1>of a two month span, that he would have some

0:14:31.360 --> 0:14:36.480
<v Speaker 1>element of PTSD. And I just think that any normal

0:14:36.560 --> 0:14:39.240
<v Speaker 1>person would and he just wills it away.

0:14:39.640 --> 0:14:41.240
<v Speaker 3>His really is amazing.

0:14:41.520 --> 0:14:44.280
<v Speaker 1>He will right. And I'm convinced why. By the way,

0:14:44.360 --> 0:14:47.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm convinced that he believes he has to set an

0:14:47.200 --> 0:14:49.440
<v Speaker 1>example to the rest of the people in this country

0:14:49.720 --> 0:14:51.560
<v Speaker 1>that he is a real leader and that he is

0:14:51.600 --> 0:14:53.440
<v Speaker 1>not going to be cowed and he is not going

0:14:53.480 --> 0:14:56.280
<v Speaker 1>to bow to this type of intimidation or even an

0:14:56.280 --> 0:14:57.480
<v Speaker 1>attempt on his life.

0:14:57.560 --> 0:14:59.240
<v Speaker 2>Well, that the land of the Free and the home

0:14:59.280 --> 0:15:02.280
<v Speaker 2>of the braver not just words, but things that we

0:15:02.320 --> 0:15:03.080
<v Speaker 2>should live by.

0:15:04.000 --> 0:15:04.960
<v Speaker 3>Steve, stay right there.

0:15:05.040 --> 0:15:08.040
<v Speaker 2>Steve Whitkoff was playing golf with President Trump yesterday during

0:15:08.040 --> 0:15:10.760
<v Speaker 2>the assassination attempt. More of this story on the other side.

0:15:10.840 --> 0:15:13.760
<v Speaker 2>He'll also join us on TV tonight nine Eastern on

0:15:13.800 --> 0:15:16.480
<v Speaker 2>the Fox News Channel. We got fifty days till election Day,

0:15:16.680 --> 0:15:20.760
<v Speaker 2>and early voting starts tomorrow in Pennsylvania and then rolls

0:15:20.760 --> 0:15:23.640
<v Speaker 2>out around the country. It is now time to it's

0:15:23.680 --> 0:15:27.160
<v Speaker 2>game time. I hope everybody's paying attention. Steve Woofkoff is

0:15:27.200 --> 0:15:29.960
<v Speaker 2>with us. He is a developer of real estate, investor,

0:15:30.040 --> 0:15:33.240
<v Speaker 2>chairman CEO of the Witcoff Group. He's also a personal

0:15:33.240 --> 0:15:36.680
<v Speaker 2>friend of mine. I had breakfast with him yesterday prior

0:15:36.720 --> 0:15:39.400
<v Speaker 2>to him then going to play golf with President Trump,

0:15:39.840 --> 0:15:44.240
<v Speaker 2>and he was there for the entire assassination attempt. And

0:15:45.520 --> 0:15:49.560
<v Speaker 2>it has to be a harrowing experience. And let me

0:15:49.680 --> 0:15:53.760
<v Speaker 2>now ask the hard part, Steve, because there are things

0:15:53.800 --> 0:15:56.640
<v Speaker 2>that are very troubling to me and to many others.

0:15:56.720 --> 0:15:59.520
<v Speaker 2>And having spoken with Eric and Laura Trump, I know

0:15:59.640 --> 0:16:03.760
<v Speaker 2>this is very troubling to them as well, and that

0:16:03.960 --> 0:16:07.000
<v Speaker 2>is that we had Butler Pennsylvania come down. I have

0:16:07.040 --> 0:16:10.200
<v Speaker 2>a report right here in front of me, and it

0:16:10.360 --> 0:16:14.200
<v Speaker 2>was put out by Josh Hawley from earlier today, and

0:16:14.720 --> 0:16:18.520
<v Speaker 2>it is a whistleblower report failures of the US Secret

0:16:18.560 --> 0:16:21.400
<v Speaker 2>Service in connection with the attempt at assassination of former

0:16:21.480 --> 0:16:22.360
<v Speaker 2>President Donald J.

0:16:22.520 --> 0:16:22.880
<v Speaker 3>Trump.

0:16:23.520 --> 0:16:26.960
<v Speaker 2>It is what Richard Blumenthal described it would be the

0:16:27.000 --> 0:16:31.600
<v Speaker 2>Democrat from Connecticut last week, and that is shocking, it

0:16:31.720 --> 0:16:35.560
<v Speaker 2>is alarming. The failures are on a spectacular level. I

0:16:35.600 --> 0:16:38.880
<v Speaker 2>do know that we learned that an eagle eized Secret

0:16:38.920 --> 0:16:41.720
<v Speaker 2>Service agent spotted the barrel of the gun in the

0:16:41.760 --> 0:16:45.200
<v Speaker 2>bushes not far from where you guys were playing that

0:16:45.920 --> 0:16:49.200
<v Speaker 2>fifth hole and where the former president was with you.

0:16:49.200 --> 0:16:52.040
<v Speaker 2>You were within just a couple of yards of the president.

0:16:52.360 --> 0:16:54.520
<v Speaker 2>That means bullets would have been whizzing by your head

0:16:54.760 --> 0:16:57.280
<v Speaker 2>and you might not even be alive today. And the

0:16:57.320 --> 0:16:59.520
<v Speaker 2>thought of losing two friends is just too much for

0:16:59.560 --> 0:17:02.840
<v Speaker 2>me to bear, to be very honest, and what's troubling

0:17:02.920 --> 0:17:05.159
<v Speaker 2>to me and to Eric, and to Laura and to

0:17:05.240 --> 0:17:09.880
<v Speaker 2>many Americans, is how is it possible that the Secret

0:17:09.920 --> 0:17:13.080
<v Speaker 2>Service and again the people around you you describe as heroic,

0:17:13.080 --> 0:17:17.160
<v Speaker 2>and I agree completely with you. They're amazing, But there's

0:17:17.200 --> 0:17:22.040
<v Speaker 2>something wrong in how they are protecting the president. If people,

0:17:22.880 --> 0:17:25.359
<v Speaker 2>in this case, somebody with an AK forty seven with

0:17:25.440 --> 0:17:28.000
<v Speaker 2>a scope on it can be within three hundred yards

0:17:28.000 --> 0:17:33.439
<v Speaker 2>of the former president and top Republican presidential candidate, the

0:17:33.480 --> 0:17:37.320
<v Speaker 2>nominee for president in an election fifty days away, how

0:17:37.359 --> 0:17:38.080
<v Speaker 2>does that happen?

0:17:38.119 --> 0:17:39.480
<v Speaker 3>There's a problem here.

0:17:40.119 --> 0:17:43.879
<v Speaker 1>Well, you know, I'd say a few things. The first

0:17:44.040 --> 0:17:48.080
<v Speaker 1>is that and it's redundant, but it's relevant is that

0:17:48.560 --> 0:17:52.840
<v Speaker 1>this team on the ground did an ex exemplary job. Sean,

0:17:53.040 --> 0:17:54.119
<v Speaker 1>They were incredible.

0:17:55.440 --> 0:17:59.160
<v Speaker 2>Everything you've described is they were perfect. They were amazing.

0:18:00.160 --> 0:18:03.800
<v Speaker 1>They were perfect. And this gentleman, this Secret Service agent

0:18:04.240 --> 0:18:08.560
<v Speaker 1>who was in charge of going forward, he identified them,

0:18:08.560 --> 0:18:12.080
<v Speaker 1>but apparently the Secret Service agent on the outside perimeter

0:18:12.600 --> 0:18:15.679
<v Speaker 1>had just missed them. He was scanning like he should,

0:18:16.280 --> 0:18:18.639
<v Speaker 1>and he had just missed the guy. The guy basically

0:18:18.680 --> 0:18:24.120
<v Speaker 1>planted himself there shortly after he left, and so they

0:18:24.160 --> 0:18:26.440
<v Speaker 1>missed him in that coverage. But they caught him in

0:18:26.480 --> 0:18:29.840
<v Speaker 1>the inside coverage, and that's the reason why nobody was

0:18:29.960 --> 0:18:34.399
<v Speaker 1>tragically injured or killed. God forbid. So they did an

0:18:34.440 --> 0:18:38.159
<v Speaker 1>exemplary job. Now I heard, and this is just what

0:18:38.240 --> 0:18:40.320
<v Speaker 1>I heard on the news. I heard from the Palm

0:18:40.400 --> 0:18:44.600
<v Speaker 1>Beach sheriff that the president is not given a presidential detail,

0:18:44.640 --> 0:18:47.280
<v Speaker 1>which of course makes no sense to me. It makes

0:18:47.320 --> 0:18:50.920
<v Speaker 1>sense to me that his detail were to be augmented

0:18:51.000 --> 0:18:56.639
<v Speaker 1>or amplified or or made smaller depending on what the

0:18:56.680 --> 0:19:00.119
<v Speaker 1>threat level is. And given what the threat level is

0:19:00.160 --> 0:19:05.320
<v Speaker 1>based on Butler, and given what some of the security

0:19:05.359 --> 0:19:09.240
<v Speaker 1>alerts I've heard about coming from the Iranians are, I

0:19:09.280 --> 0:19:11.560
<v Speaker 1>would think that he would have at least a presidential

0:19:11.600 --> 0:19:15.800
<v Speaker 1>detail worth of manpower, and yet he didn't that day.

0:19:16.359 --> 0:19:22.920
<v Speaker 1>So it's hard to imagine that with someone like President

0:19:22.960 --> 0:19:27.119
<v Speaker 1>Trump that he wouldn't get the full complement of people

0:19:27.280 --> 0:19:31.440
<v Speaker 1>necessary to guard him correctly. That's what too. Eric is

0:19:32.040 --> 0:19:35.720
<v Speaker 1>a marksman, He's a hunter. He's a marksman. He knows

0:19:35.720 --> 0:19:38.480
<v Speaker 1>about these things pretty well because he practices that, he's

0:19:38.520 --> 0:19:41.160
<v Speaker 1>competed and so forth. And he's got a good point

0:19:41.280 --> 0:19:45.880
<v Speaker 1>in that maybe some of the security protocols i e.

0:19:46.800 --> 0:19:55.280
<v Speaker 1>Broadening out the boundaries within which you guard him. That

0:19:55.480 --> 0:19:59.400
<v Speaker 1>has to happen because it's the rifle that's the most dangerous,

0:20:00.040 --> 0:20:02.240
<v Speaker 1>and there are people out there today that can take

0:20:02.280 --> 0:20:05.639
<v Speaker 1>shots from a mile out, and that's a you know,

0:20:05.920 --> 0:20:10.320
<v Speaker 1>that's a that's a pretty complicated procedure to guard a

0:20:10.400 --> 0:20:12.800
<v Speaker 1>mile out in a three hundred and sixty degree corrider,

0:20:13.680 --> 0:20:16.240
<v Speaker 1>so you know from where the president is at any

0:20:16.240 --> 0:20:18.800
<v Speaker 1>one time, kenne.

0:20:18.640 --> 0:20:22.680
<v Speaker 2>Can, I just as as an observation, say that they

0:20:22.720 --> 0:20:28.800
<v Speaker 2>ought to have their own sniper capability with scopes up

0:20:28.880 --> 0:20:33.920
<v Speaker 2>at a high perch looking out around an entire perimeter,

0:20:34.720 --> 0:20:38.080
<v Speaker 2>that full mile. Because I did speak to Eric yesterday

0:20:38.680 --> 0:20:41.719
<v Speaker 2>and he was hitting targets over a mile away. That

0:20:42.000 --> 0:20:44.120
<v Speaker 2>to me would have to be the perimeter at least

0:20:44.119 --> 0:20:47.600
<v Speaker 2>for a president or somebody that has had as many

0:20:47.640 --> 0:20:50.320
<v Speaker 2>threats as President Trump. I would argue he's probably the

0:20:50.320 --> 0:20:53.480
<v Speaker 2>top political target in the country today. Obviously he is,

0:20:53.520 --> 0:20:55.639
<v Speaker 2>because he's now experienced this twice.

0:20:56.119 --> 0:20:58.159
<v Speaker 1>I agree with you, And you know, Sean, I've been

0:20:58.200 --> 0:21:02.520
<v Speaker 1>out with the president at the rally. I was with

0:21:02.600 --> 0:21:05.440
<v Speaker 1>him just recently on nine to eleven. I was with

0:21:05.520 --> 0:21:08.159
<v Speaker 1>him at the rally the night before. When you go

0:21:08.200 --> 0:21:14.160
<v Speaker 1>to the airport. They've got sharpshooters now sniper teams in

0:21:14.200 --> 0:21:18.919
<v Speaker 1>elevated places, and they're looking and there's multiple teams out there.

0:21:18.920 --> 0:21:22.520
<v Speaker 1>It's very clear, and they've got their guns trained in

0:21:22.600 --> 0:21:27.080
<v Speaker 1>all the different directions based on where the President could

0:21:27.080 --> 0:21:29.280
<v Speaker 1>be at any particular moment, from the moment that he

0:21:29.359 --> 0:21:31.800
<v Speaker 1>leaves his car, gets on, the plane gets off. So

0:21:32.640 --> 0:21:35.399
<v Speaker 1>I saw that you see that happen at the airports.

0:21:37.040 --> 0:21:41.920
<v Speaker 1>This is not I'm not good enough to understand where

0:21:41.960 --> 0:21:46.360
<v Speaker 1>the different where the different points are at that golf club,

0:21:46.480 --> 0:21:49.160
<v Speaker 1>first of all, I go there with the president, never

0:21:49.240 --> 0:21:52.639
<v Speaker 1>thinking that this could ever happen. The President never thinks

0:21:52.640 --> 0:21:55.080
<v Speaker 1>that this could ever happen. He says things to me

0:21:55.119 --> 0:21:57.320
<v Speaker 1>about this club repeatedly, What do you think about this?

0:21:57.440 --> 0:22:01.560
<v Speaker 1>I call it our sanctuary. I played five hundred rounds

0:22:01.560 --> 0:22:04.320
<v Speaker 1>of golf with him there. It's a peaceful place.

0:22:04.880 --> 0:22:06.520
<v Speaker 2>No wonder why I'm never going to play with you,

0:22:06.640 --> 0:22:09.760
<v Speaker 2>because you're gonna crush me. I haven't played five hundred

0:22:09.800 --> 0:22:13.040
<v Speaker 2>rounds in my life. But let me ask a serious question.

0:22:14.320 --> 0:22:18.880
<v Speaker 2>If there's ever been a picture of Donald Trump playing golf,

0:22:19.480 --> 0:22:23.200
<v Speaker 2>the odds are it was a photographer hiding in these

0:22:23.400 --> 0:22:28.800
<v Speaker 2>very bushes where this assassin was, and otherwise you can't

0:22:28.880 --> 0:22:32.480
<v Speaker 2>get a good picture of President Trump playing golf.

0:22:32.600 --> 0:22:34.520
<v Speaker 3>And this is what photographers do.

0:22:34.560 --> 0:22:36.199
<v Speaker 2>They get paid big money if they can get a

0:22:36.200 --> 0:22:38.000
<v Speaker 2>picture that is rare, and that would be a rare

0:22:38.080 --> 0:22:41.679
<v Speaker 2>picture with that said, on Congress Avenue, knowing that it

0:22:41.760 --> 0:22:45.639
<v Speaker 2>is such a short distance, why wouldn't there be agents

0:22:45.760 --> 0:22:50.959
<v Speaker 2>on Congress Avenue making sure nobody walks into the area

0:22:51.000 --> 0:22:55.000
<v Speaker 2>by the bushes. Why wasn't that surveiled prior to the

0:22:55.000 --> 0:22:58.199
<v Speaker 2>President making the turn and going up? Playing the par

0:22:58.359 --> 0:23:01.000
<v Speaker 2>three in the par four that you were playing to me,

0:23:01.440 --> 0:23:06.959
<v Speaker 2>this is a failure. And I want to back up.

0:23:07.359 --> 0:23:09.840
<v Speaker 2>I am so supportive of the Secret Service like you.

0:23:09.920 --> 0:23:12.159
<v Speaker 2>Over the years, I've met so many of these guys,

0:23:12.880 --> 0:23:15.480
<v Speaker 2>and I've come to love them and anybody that's willing

0:23:15.520 --> 0:23:17.840
<v Speaker 2>to give their life to save another's life, and no

0:23:17.960 --> 0:23:20.840
<v Speaker 2>greater love hath the man to do that right, And

0:23:20.920 --> 0:23:23.480
<v Speaker 2>I admire them so much. And we see them in action.

0:23:23.600 --> 0:23:26.480
<v Speaker 2>We've seen them now in action twice with President Trump.

0:23:26.520 --> 0:23:29.560
<v Speaker 2>And you're describing everything I know about them, But that

0:23:29.680 --> 0:23:33.439
<v Speaker 2>does not negate the intelligence failure, the obvious failure in

0:23:33.480 --> 0:23:36.160
<v Speaker 2>this case or in the case that we've discovered in Butler,

0:23:36.720 --> 0:23:39.720
<v Speaker 2>and I'm very concerned that somebody with an AK forty

0:23:39.760 --> 0:23:42.000
<v Speaker 2>seven and a scope is three hundred yards away from

0:23:42.040 --> 0:23:46.000
<v Speaker 2>the president, because you, if you are a marginally decent shooter,

0:23:46.160 --> 0:23:48.040
<v Speaker 2>you really can't miss from that distance.

0:23:48.320 --> 0:23:52.320
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. Look, I share your concern too, And I would

0:23:52.320 --> 0:23:55.440
<v Speaker 1>imagine that if you talk to the detail that was

0:23:55.480 --> 0:23:58.320
<v Speaker 1>there yes today, they would say the Secret Service detail,

0:23:58.359 --> 0:24:03.320
<v Speaker 1>they would say the same thing. Look, I've witnessed how

0:24:03.320 --> 0:24:06.600
<v Speaker 1>they react. They're all pros. Every one of them would

0:24:06.640 --> 0:24:11.119
<v Speaker 1>give their life. Every one of them would feel a

0:24:11.240 --> 0:24:14.320
<v Speaker 1>sense of a men's sorrow. I think every one of

0:24:14.320 --> 0:24:16.280
<v Speaker 1>them felt the sense of a men's sorrow from what

0:24:16.359 --> 0:24:18.439
<v Speaker 1>happened at Butler and how close he came to that.

0:24:18.600 --> 0:24:24.080
<v Speaker 1>So it's not about their attitude. These guys, they do

0:24:24.200 --> 0:24:29.000
<v Speaker 1>their job well, they're pros, and most of them really

0:24:29.040 --> 0:24:32.080
<v Speaker 1>really care about Donald Trump. I know that to be

0:24:32.119 --> 0:24:32.760
<v Speaker 1>a fact.

0:24:33.000 --> 0:24:36.440
<v Speaker 2>I think those are the Are we delineating between the

0:24:36.880 --> 0:24:41.639
<v Speaker 2>people that you are describing perfectly as heroic yesterday? Are

0:24:41.720 --> 0:24:45.800
<v Speaker 2>we delineating between them and the people that are responsible

0:24:45.880 --> 0:24:49.679
<v Speaker 2>to make sure that nobody can get within three hundred

0:24:49.760 --> 0:24:53.480
<v Speaker 2>yards with AK forty seven and a scope because I'm

0:24:53.520 --> 0:24:56.720
<v Speaker 2>making it a very clear distinction here, and I know

0:24:56.760 --> 0:24:59.480
<v Speaker 2>it's a tough conversation to have, but to me, it's

0:24:59.520 --> 0:25:03.840
<v Speaker 2>a very obvious failure. And you know now that I

0:25:03.920 --> 0:25:06.760
<v Speaker 2>know the details and the layout of that golf course,

0:25:07.200 --> 0:25:09.439
<v Speaker 2>and having looked at it and spoken to you and

0:25:09.520 --> 0:25:11.760
<v Speaker 2>spoken to Ronda Santis and others that have played it

0:25:11.800 --> 0:25:14.920
<v Speaker 2>and played it regularly and spoken to the president, I mean,

0:25:15.000 --> 0:25:18.240
<v Speaker 2>this is the most dangerous point on that golf course,

0:25:18.880 --> 0:25:22.720
<v Speaker 2>and with the trees involved and the fence involved, the

0:25:22.800 --> 0:25:26.560
<v Speaker 2>idea if it was Look how close this got. There

0:25:26.600 --> 0:25:29.359
<v Speaker 2>was one report today that said an eagle eyed Secret

0:25:29.359 --> 0:25:32.479
<v Speaker 2>Service agent spotted the barrel of the gun and the

0:25:32.520 --> 0:25:36.560
<v Speaker 2>bushes a few hundred yards from where the president was playing.

0:25:37.400 --> 0:25:40.000
<v Speaker 2>This guy was teed up and ready to go. And

0:25:40.840 --> 0:25:43.200
<v Speaker 2>I think the President came a lot closer to being

0:25:43.240 --> 0:25:47.159
<v Speaker 2>assassinated yesterday than we know now. That tells me he

0:25:47.800 --> 0:25:50.359
<v Speaker 2>had his sight, he had his GoPro, he had his backpacks,

0:25:50.400 --> 0:25:53.439
<v Speaker 2>he had been waiting there, and he was ready to

0:25:53.520 --> 0:25:56.960
<v Speaker 2>take the shot. And had this one agent not seen

0:25:57.119 --> 0:26:00.959
<v Speaker 2>the barrel of that gun, this would be a very

0:26:01.000 --> 0:26:01.840
<v Speaker 2>different show today.

0:26:03.040 --> 0:26:06.080
<v Speaker 1>I agree with you. I don't disagree with that, with

0:26:06.119 --> 0:26:09.879
<v Speaker 1>how you're describing it. But thank god that one heroic

0:26:09.920 --> 0:26:14.400
<v Speaker 1>agent did see that barrel of the gun, and thank

0:26:14.480 --> 0:26:19.359
<v Speaker 1>god when those shots went off, I was able to see. Look.

0:26:19.400 --> 0:26:24.080
<v Speaker 1>I consider it, as crazy as this may sound to you, Sean,

0:26:24.280 --> 0:26:27.560
<v Speaker 1>I consider it my honor and blessing to have witnessed

0:26:27.560 --> 0:26:30.919
<v Speaker 1>everything I saw yesterday. It was almost as if, you know,

0:26:30.960 --> 0:26:32.920
<v Speaker 1>I buried his son, and I say, my son puts

0:26:32.960 --> 0:26:35.240
<v Speaker 1>me in these places. It was almost as if he

0:26:35.320 --> 0:26:39.080
<v Speaker 1>put me there, He put me on that green so

0:26:39.200 --> 0:26:42.280
<v Speaker 1>I could witness what my dear friend went through a

0:26:42.359 --> 0:26:44.800
<v Speaker 1>month and a half ago and what it must be

0:26:44.920 --> 0:26:49.320
<v Speaker 1>like for him. So I saw these valiant agents and

0:26:50.040 --> 0:26:54.680
<v Speaker 1>how they responded. I saw the president almost fearless, less

0:26:54.720 --> 0:26:57.479
<v Speaker 1>concerned about his own self than the welfare of his friends.

0:26:58.560 --> 0:27:02.680
<v Speaker 1>And I agree with you that you know, something's got

0:27:02.680 --> 0:27:06.479
<v Speaker 1>to be done to address some of these issues that

0:27:06.520 --> 0:27:09.840
<v Speaker 1>you've raised. But I don't know if it's a question

0:27:09.960 --> 0:27:16.280
<v Speaker 1>of manpower, and you know, the Secret Service having you know,

0:27:16.680 --> 0:27:20.960
<v Speaker 1>typical bureaucratic aspects to it, and the president not getting

0:27:21.080 --> 0:27:25.520
<v Speaker 1>enough staff, or if there was a lap somewhere. I

0:27:25.600 --> 0:27:30.160
<v Speaker 1>know this what I witnessed yesterday was heroism. There's no

0:27:30.200 --> 0:27:33.760
<v Speaker 1>doubt in my mind. I never got onto that golf cart.

0:27:33.920 --> 0:27:38.840
<v Speaker 1>I just watched and turned around, watching, mesmerized by what

0:27:38.920 --> 0:27:40.080
<v Speaker 1>I saw.

0:27:40.160 --> 0:27:42.359
<v Speaker 2>Well, you and I need to have a personal conversation

0:27:42.480 --> 0:27:44.840
<v Speaker 2>about you just standing up with the whole incident, not

0:27:44.880 --> 0:27:47.719
<v Speaker 2>getting not going for cover. I've got to have a

0:27:47.760 --> 0:27:53.280
<v Speaker 2>conversation with you about personal safety and security for yourself.

0:27:53.600 --> 0:27:56.040
<v Speaker 2>And I say that lovingly as your friends.

0:27:56.680 --> 0:27:58.560
<v Speaker 1>Well, you know what, you know what I you know

0:27:58.600 --> 0:28:01.800
<v Speaker 1>what I call it, Sean, It's the Donald Trump influence.

0:28:03.119 --> 0:28:06.040
<v Speaker 1>Just all stand a little bit taller, be a little

0:28:06.200 --> 0:28:11.080
<v Speaker 1>more fearless, stand up a stand up for what we

0:28:11.240 --> 0:28:14.840
<v Speaker 1>believe in a little bit more. He I think he

0:28:14.920 --> 0:28:17.560
<v Speaker 1>inspires all of us to do that. He inspired us

0:28:17.600 --> 0:28:19.600
<v Speaker 1>that day when he stood up and raised his vest.

0:28:20.680 --> 0:28:23.320
<v Speaker 2>And that's why I kind of once he knew everybody

0:28:23.440 --> 0:28:25.320
