1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,480 Speaker 1: Hi, this is new due to the virus. I'm recording 2 00:00:02,520 --> 00:00:05,440 Speaker 1: from home, so you may notice a difference in audio 3 00:00:05,559 --> 00:00:11,440 Speaker 1: quality on this episode of News World. If I want 4 00:00:11,480 --> 00:00:15,960 Speaker 1: to talk about the two great conventions that just ended, 5 00:00:16,640 --> 00:00:20,160 Speaker 1: and I say great conventions because when the two national 6 00:00:20,280 --> 00:00:24,680 Speaker 1: parties bring themselves together from all over the country, it 7 00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:28,400 Speaker 1: is an extraordinary moment for freedom for the American people 8 00:00:28,400 --> 00:00:31,280 Speaker 1: to talk to themselves and to have a sense of 9 00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:36,720 Speaker 1: all the things that are going on. And sometimes conventions 10 00:00:36,720 --> 00:00:41,880 Speaker 1: have a way of sharing the real internal image of 11 00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:44,599 Speaker 1: the two parties. It's interesting, for example, has been very 12 00:00:44,680 --> 00:00:48,879 Speaker 1: underreported that the Democrats actually had about a third of 13 00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:53,680 Speaker 1: their delegates voting against their platform. I think it was 14 00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:57,120 Speaker 1: some twelve hundred votes against the platform. It's also interesting 15 00:00:57,200 --> 00:01:01,960 Speaker 1: that Biden basically was how to the picture until the 16 00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:05,640 Speaker 1: last night, whereas Trump was in the picture every single day. 17 00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:10,200 Speaker 1: Tells you both about their personalities but also their political calculus. 18 00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:26,160 Speaker 1: Biden and many of these had a very conventional convention, 19 00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:31,040 Speaker 1: even if it was basically a zoom meeting and fairly boring, 20 00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:35,440 Speaker 1: but it didn't break free. Trump, on the other hand, 21 00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:40,200 Speaker 1: did things like participating in a naturalization ceremony with New 22 00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:46,320 Speaker 1: American citizens who came from Lebanon, Bolivia, India, Ghana, and Sudan. 23 00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:50,000 Speaker 1: And on night too, he pardoned John Ponder, a former 24 00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:53,320 Speaker 1: bank robber who went on to dedicate his life to 25 00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:57,440 Speaker 1: help other prisoners. And with Ponder that day was the 26 00:01:57,520 --> 00:02:01,440 Speaker 1: FBI agent who arrested him. And Ponder had become a 27 00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:07,000 Speaker 1: real symbol of genuine conversion to Christianity, a genuine belief 28 00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:12,040 Speaker 1: in helping others also be converted to a life without crime, 29 00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:15,720 Speaker 1: being a good citizen who is a great symbol of 30 00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:18,560 Speaker 1: the notion of second chances, which is one of the 31 00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:23,280 Speaker 1: things that this president has really taken up on, something 32 00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:25,960 Speaker 1: which I think has gotten to his heart, is helping 33 00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:29,480 Speaker 1: people have a second chance. It also tells you a 34 00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:33,320 Speaker 1: little bit about where we are as a country that 35 00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:37,880 Speaker 1: after the speech on Thursday night, Senator Ran Paul and 36 00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:40,679 Speaker 1: his wife were attacked by a mob of over a 37 00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:44,320 Speaker 1: hundred people and rescued by the police. And this kind 38 00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:51,200 Speaker 1: of spontaneous, arrogant belief that you could impose on your 39 00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:54,720 Speaker 1: fellow American and you could intimidate them and bully them, 40 00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:57,760 Speaker 1: this has been growing and it is presently going to 41 00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:01,320 Speaker 1: lead to real confrontations and it's going to lead to 42 00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:06,720 Speaker 1: passing very stiff laws that if you threaten somebody, you 43 00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:09,399 Speaker 1: could go to jail for the act of threatening them. 44 00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:12,799 Speaker 1: They noticed more and more that as they get desperate, 45 00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:17,760 Speaker 1: the cutolitarians of the left are moving towards more intimidation, 46 00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:22,280 Speaker 1: more pressure, more face to face confrontation. Well, the threats 47 00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:25,560 Speaker 1: were to f you up, to you, to kill you. 48 00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:27,760 Speaker 1: The threats were if they could get hold of you. 49 00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:30,800 Speaker 1: And I truly believe this with every fiber of my being. 50 00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:33,120 Speaker 1: Had they gotten at us, they would have gotten us 51 00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:35,200 Speaker 1: to the ground. We might not have been killed. We 52 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:38,080 Speaker 1: might just have been injured by being kicked in the 53 00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:40,920 Speaker 1: head or kicked in the stomach until we were senseless. 54 00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:43,800 Speaker 1: You've seen the pictures. Most of the networks will not 55 00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:47,080 Speaker 1: show the pictures of this. This is happening in all 56 00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:50,120 Speaker 1: of our cities. It's got to stop. And thank God 57 00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:52,160 Speaker 1: for the police. Had we not gotten to the police, 58 00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:54,880 Speaker 1: I truly believe that the police saved our lives and 59 00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:56,680 Speaker 1: we would not be here today, or we'd be in 60 00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:59,680 Speaker 1: a hospital today, had the police not been there. They 61 00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:03,640 Speaker 1: watched the Fox coverage right after the President's speech, and 62 00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:09,160 Speaker 1: Rove had actually analyzed over five thousand words, he said. 63 00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:12,760 Speaker 1: Out of over five thousand words, five hundred and sixty 64 00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:16,000 Speaker 1: four were devoted to going after the Democrats, about ten 65 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:20,240 Speaker 1: percent of the the speech. The second term agenda was four 66 00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:22,920 Speaker 1: hundred and one words looking at what are we going 67 00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:25,480 Speaker 1: to do next? That was about seven percent, which frankly 68 00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:27,520 Speaker 1: was much less than I would have liked it to 69 00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:30,839 Speaker 1: have been. I was hoping they'd be much higher share 70 00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:33,840 Speaker 1: of looking at the future. However, this was interesting, and 71 00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:36,680 Speaker 1: I hadn't actually thought about it this way. The biggest 72 00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:39,279 Speaker 1: part of the speech, according to Rove, was devoted to 73 00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:43,760 Speaker 1: a defense of traditional American values and patriotism. And I 74 00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:47,200 Speaker 1: must say that's probably the part the most impressed both 75 00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:50,520 Speaker 1: Callista and me as we watched it was this sense 76 00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:53,000 Speaker 1: that he did make you proud to be an American, 77 00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:56,560 Speaker 1: and they said. The second biggest portion was devoted to 78 00:04:56,640 --> 00:05:00,080 Speaker 1: promises made, promises kept at nine hundred and fIF the 79 00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:03,239 Speaker 1: six words law and order was third at eight hundred 80 00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:06,039 Speaker 1: and thirty one words, and then six hundred and thirty 81 00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:09,400 Speaker 1: six words were devoted to the COVID response. So you 82 00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:12,599 Speaker 1: see a really balanced speech that took seventy four minutes 83 00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:15,800 Speaker 1: to deliver. It felt more like a state of the 84 00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:19,320 Speaker 1: Union than a campaign speech, and I thought that was 85 00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:22,440 Speaker 1: exactly right. And the reason I say that is he's 86 00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:25,800 Speaker 1: standing in front of the White House, not breaking precedent 87 00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:30,279 Speaker 1: because Franklin Dollan or Roosevelt accepted the nomination in nineteen 88 00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:35,080 Speaker 1: forty from the White House. He's in the position of 89 00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:39,400 Speaker 1: President of the United States and candidate in that order. 90 00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:42,719 Speaker 1: If you go back and listen to the channel, it's 91 00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:48,200 Speaker 1: a deliberately understated feeling that he's chatting with you. He's 92 00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:51,680 Speaker 1: not haranguing you, he's not giving you a campaign speech. 93 00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:56,000 Speaker 1: He's talking with you about what he's learned, what we've accomplished, 94 00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:58,320 Speaker 1: what we're going to do, what our values are. But 95 00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:01,000 Speaker 1: it's all done in a way that makes it very 96 00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:04,479 Speaker 1: accessible and frankly frustrated the news media, who, of course, 97 00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:08,359 Speaker 1: if he had given a classic campaign address with his 98 00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:11,039 Speaker 1: usual style, would have then attacked him for that. So 99 00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:13,080 Speaker 1: whichever way he want, they were going to attack him. 100 00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:17,719 Speaker 1: I think personally that this delivery and this speech was 101 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:21,919 Speaker 1: better because the country needed that kind of framework. But 102 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:25,440 Speaker 1: the convention was about more than the president. The convention 103 00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:28,279 Speaker 1: was about painting a picture, and here I think the 104 00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:32,680 Speaker 1: Republicans were just extraordinarily better than the Democrats. And let 105 00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:36,720 Speaker 1: me start by saying that we did an analysis on 106 00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:41,919 Speaker 1: the evening speakers. The Republicans averaged almost nine years younger 107 00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:46,279 Speaker 1: than the Democrats. So you now have a younger Republican party, 108 00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:50,520 Speaker 1: which is also an increasingly diverse party. And you saw 109 00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:54,160 Speaker 1: that on the opening night when Tim Scott's speech knocked 110 00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:58,400 Speaker 1: it out of the park. His great reference to his grandfather, 111 00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:00,640 Speaker 1: who would have been ninety nine this year, and the 112 00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:04,599 Speaker 1: notion that his grandfather, who was illiterate, worked hard, lived 113 00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:08,359 Speaker 1: in a segregated society that in one generation, as he 114 00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:12,000 Speaker 1: put it, they went from cotton to Congress. He lived 115 00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:16,640 Speaker 1: long enough to see his grandson become the first African 116 00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:20,080 Speaker 1: American to be elected to both the United States House 117 00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:23,880 Speaker 1: and the United States Senate in the history of this country. 118 00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:30,200 Speaker 1: Our family went from cotton to Congress in one lifetime. 119 00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:34,920 Speaker 1: And although Tim Scott was a remarkable advocate for an 120 00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:38,720 Speaker 1: integrated in America with opportunity for everyone. In addition, he 121 00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:42,720 Speaker 1: did a superb job of talking about opportunity zones, which 122 00:07:42,760 --> 00:07:45,120 Speaker 1: the President came back to, the Vice President came back to, 123 00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:48,920 Speaker 1: this will be one of the major themes of the 124 00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:52,920 Speaker 1: second term is taking these opportunity zones and turning them 125 00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:58,160 Speaker 1: into genuine growth centers, with economic growth, with safety, and 126 00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:01,280 Speaker 1: with school choice so everybody can learn. I must say 127 00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:05,600 Speaker 1: also the opening night, Ambassador NICKI Haley did her usual 128 00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:09,680 Speaker 1: outstanding job. She's a great representative of a first generation 129 00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:13,760 Speaker 1: immigrant who has risen. She's a potential presidential candidate someday, 130 00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:18,360 Speaker 1: former governor, former state legislator, former small business owner. She 131 00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:21,520 Speaker 1: just says a great future. I thought she delivered brilliantly. 132 00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:25,960 Speaker 1: And the RNC Chairwoman Ronald McDaniel, who I had to 133 00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:28,480 Speaker 1: write a note too, because I thought she had put 134 00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:32,560 Speaker 1: together an extraordinarily complex convention. You look at all the 135 00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:36,000 Speaker 1: different places, all the different moving parts, everything that had 136 00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:39,880 Speaker 1: to work, and you look at the tremendous diversity of people, 137 00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:43,400 Speaker 1: and I would say that Chairwoman McDaniel did an amazing 138 00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:46,160 Speaker 1: job for her party and for the country. I would 139 00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:50,320 Speaker 1: also say that a very emotional moment with Natalie Harp 140 00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:54,600 Speaker 1: talking as a cancer survivor praising President Trump for his 141 00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:57,800 Speaker 1: right to try legislation. You know when you see somebody 142 00:08:57,840 --> 00:09:02,640 Speaker 1: who literally is a lie because of something the president 143 00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:05,040 Speaker 1: has done and is able to share with you at 144 00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:09,240 Speaker 1: a very personal level. It's just astounding. That wouldn't be 145 00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:12,000 Speaker 1: alive today if it wasn't for you. And I think 146 00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:15,240 Speaker 1: Natalie Harp was very effective and very touching as a 147 00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:18,520 Speaker 1: human being. I'm also a big fan of Kim Klasick. 148 00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:21,040 Speaker 1: If you have not seen her two and a half 149 00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:24,920 Speaker 1: minute commercial, you should go find it on YouTube. But 150 00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:28,440 Speaker 1: Kim Klasick is a genuine star. She has told the 151 00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:33,280 Speaker 1: truth about democratic corruption and democratic failure. The Democrats have 152 00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:36,079 Speaker 1: controlled this part of Baltimore City for over fifty years 153 00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:38,720 Speaker 1: and they have run this beautiful place right into the ground. 154 00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:41,280 Speaker 1: We're sick of it. We're not going to take it anymore. 155 00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:44,800 Speaker 1: The days of blindly supporting the Democrats are coming to 156 00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:48,360 Speaker 1: an end. Better than anybody I've seen, she has our 157 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:53,040 Speaker 1: nominee for Congress in Baltimore. Really quite remarkable. As a Georgian, 158 00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:56,560 Speaker 1: it meant a lot to me to watch Herschel Walker, 159 00:09:56,760 --> 00:10:00,000 Speaker 1: the great University of Georgia football player on All Americans, 160 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:03,240 Speaker 1: and I have to say I really liked two things 161 00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:05,800 Speaker 1: he did. One was the point where he said, look, 162 00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:11,320 Speaker 1: I've done this guy for thirty seven years, and you 163 00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:14,400 Speaker 1: want to say I'm really stupid if I would have 164 00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:17,880 Speaker 1: a really close friend as a racist for thirty seven years. 165 00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:20,120 Speaker 1: I take it as a person insult that people would 166 00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:22,240 Speaker 1: think I've had a third or seven year of friendship 167 00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:24,559 Speaker 1: with the racist. People think that they don't know what 168 00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:27,760 Speaker 1: they're talking about. Growing up in the Deep South, I've 169 00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:31,120 Speaker 1: seen racism up clothes. I know what it is and 170 00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:33,920 Speaker 1: it isn't Donald Trump. And I thought it was the 171 00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:38,720 Speaker 1: kind of personal witness that was just really powerful and 172 00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:41,520 Speaker 1: really compelling, And it sort of said to all those 173 00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:43,880 Speaker 1: liberals who want you to believe Trump's a racist, how 174 00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:46,400 Speaker 1: are you gonna answer herschel walk the second he told 175 00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:49,680 Speaker 1: this great story. One time, I plan to take his 176 00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:53,200 Speaker 1: kids to Disney World with my family. At the last minute, 177 00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:56,320 Speaker 1: Donald said he'd like to join us, So they was 178 00:10:56,760 --> 00:11:00,000 Speaker 1: in a business suit on as a small world ride. 179 00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:03,640 Speaker 1: That was something to see. It just shows you what 180 00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:06,680 Speaker 1: a care and love and father he is. Now I 181 00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:09,000 Speaker 1: have to tell you one of my missions over the 182 00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:11,240 Speaker 1: next week is going to be to try to track 183 00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:16,040 Speaker 1: down that picture because I think that will be so charming. 184 00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:22,000 Speaker 1: Andrew Pollock was very emotionally powerful, the father of a 185 00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:26,120 Speaker 1: daughter who was killed in Parkland, a father who said 186 00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:30,280 Speaker 1: clearly that it was the policies of the left which 187 00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:34,640 Speaker 1: had led to the kind of unwillingness to patrol which 188 00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:38,920 Speaker 1: allowed the killer to stay in that school until they 189 00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:41,920 Speaker 1: had a chance to kill Meadow Pollock and her classmates, 190 00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:47,120 Speaker 1: and that any application of common sense conservatism would have 191 00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:50,280 Speaker 1: kicked that person out of school and possibly put them 192 00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:54,280 Speaker 1: in a situation where they got genuine professional care. Very 193 00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:57,040 Speaker 1: compelling and very powerful, and took a lot of courage, 194 00:11:57,040 --> 00:11:59,560 Speaker 1: I think for Andrew Pollock to come and share that 195 00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:04,960 Speaker 1: story with everyone has been raving about. Maximo Alvarez, the 196 00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:09,480 Speaker 1: president of Sunshine Gasoline Distributors, a Cuban immigrant who understands 197 00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:14,040 Speaker 1: the danger of totlitarianism, understands the danger of socialism, gave 198 00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:20,360 Speaker 1: a powerful personal witness. My family has fled totalitarianism and 199 00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:26,679 Speaker 1: communism more than once. By the grace of God, I 200 00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:30,680 Speaker 1: leave the American Dream the greatest blessing I ever had. 201 00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:34,800 Speaker 1: I am so grateful to America, the place where I 202 00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:38,040 Speaker 1: was able to build my American dream. I may be 203 00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:40,760 Speaker 1: a Cuban warm but I am one hundred percent American. 204 00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:45,280 Speaker 1: This is the greatest country in the world. If I 205 00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:48,839 Speaker 1: gave away everything that I have today, it would not 206 00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:52,360 Speaker 1: equal one percent of what I was given when I 207 00:12:52,480 --> 00:13:11,679 Speaker 1: came to this great country of hours, the gift of freedom. 208 00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:16,360 Speaker 1: When you see first Lady Milannia Trump, she is gorgeous, 209 00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:22,040 Speaker 1: She brings dignity and beauty. She were a liberal, she'd 210 00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:24,440 Speaker 1: be in the same league as Jackie Kennedy, and she 211 00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:27,200 Speaker 1: would be on every woman's magazine cover in the country. 212 00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:29,960 Speaker 1: But she's not a liberal, and so some of the 213 00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:33,120 Speaker 1: liberals even attacked her, which I thought was kind of 214 00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:37,880 Speaker 1: mildly astonishing. First Lady Milannia Trump gave I thought, a 215 00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:43,079 Speaker 1: well written, well delivered, clear speech that was very important. 216 00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:46,280 Speaker 1: And then you end up with people like Bette Midler saying, 217 00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:49,479 Speaker 1: oh god, she still can't speak English. Can you imagine 218 00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:54,240 Speaker 1: if a conservative said of an immigrant that they hadn't 219 00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:58,040 Speaker 1: fully mastered English, they would just get their brains beat now. 220 00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:01,960 Speaker 1: But on the other hand, on the left, nothing that 221 00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:05,400 Speaker 1: a Trump does can be actually applauded or you don't 222 00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:09,680 Speaker 1: get invited back. But I thought Milannia Trump was amazingly helpful, 223 00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:12,680 Speaker 1: both on Tuesday night when she spoke and again on 224 00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:15,200 Speaker 1: Thursday night when she came out with the President and 225 00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:19,840 Speaker 1: stood out so clearly in the crowd. I thought it 226 00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:24,520 Speaker 1: was appropriate to have Mike Pompeo talked from Israel because 227 00:14:24,560 --> 00:14:28,800 Speaker 1: this president has just achieved the biggest breakthrough in twenty 228 00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:32,240 Speaker 1: five years in the Middle East in getting the United 229 00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:35,680 Speaker 1: Arab Emirates in Israel to recognize each other. And next 230 00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:39,440 Speaker 1: week there will be the first flight directly from Israel 231 00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:43,480 Speaker 1: to the United Arab Emirates, and it's the beginning of 232 00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:47,160 Speaker 1: a genuine relationship which really breaks up a lot of 233 00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:50,640 Speaker 1: the log jam in the Middle East, and maybe followed 234 00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:55,120 Speaker 1: in the next few months by several more countries recognizing Israel, 235 00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:59,360 Speaker 1: which really begins to both vindicate the Trump's strategy in 236 00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:02,160 Speaker 1: the region, which many of the anti Trumpers are never 237 00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:05,400 Speaker 1: Trumpers hated, but in fact it has turned out to 238 00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:08,120 Speaker 1: work when the strategy of the old Order had failed 239 00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:13,640 Speaker 1: consistently for thirty years. Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron, the 240 00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:17,520 Speaker 1: first black Attorney General in Kentucky history. Brilliant young man, 241 00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:20,280 Speaker 1: clearly a leader of the future for the whole country. 242 00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:23,640 Speaker 1: Somebody who is I think going to be great at 243 00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:27,520 Speaker 1: representing the kind of America we believe in, an America 244 00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:30,800 Speaker 1: of talent an America of merit and hard work, in 245 00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:34,480 Speaker 1: America where anybody can rise, and he gave great witness 246 00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:38,920 Speaker 1: to the opportunity that everyone has to rise in America 247 00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:42,480 Speaker 1: and is a clear alternative to the left division of 248 00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:46,320 Speaker 1: a gloomy, hopelessly divided America in which you at no 249 00:15:46,480 --> 00:15:50,280 Speaker 1: point even trying. Daniel Cameron is absolute proof as the 250 00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:53,120 Speaker 1: Attorney General of Kentucky that they don't have to let you. 251 00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:55,240 Speaker 1: You can just go out and win it on your own. 252 00:15:55,920 --> 00:16:00,960 Speaker 1: Avery John Trunk gave the most powerful and compelling and 253 00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:06,080 Speaker 1: disturbing pro life witness ever given at a national convention. 254 00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:11,080 Speaker 1: And it is a remarkable contrast that the small number 255 00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:15,000 Speaker 1: of pro life Democrats who are still active were not 256 00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:19,760 Speaker 1: allowed to have a caucus at the Democratic Convention because 257 00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:22,440 Speaker 1: the left believes you cannot be pro life and be 258 00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:26,440 Speaker 1: a Democrat. But at the Republican Convention there were several 259 00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:31,640 Speaker 1: people celebrating the legitimacy of life and taking on the 260 00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:35,960 Speaker 1: Biden Harris commitment to use tax paid money even in 261 00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:39,200 Speaker 1: the ninth month, to pay for abortion, and Abby Johnson 262 00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:43,520 Speaker 1: was very compelling in her witness about the pain involved 263 00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:47,800 Speaker 1: an abortion. Later in August, my supervisor assigned me a 264 00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:52,760 Speaker 1: new quota to meet an abortion quota. I was expected 265 00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:57,400 Speaker 1: to sell double the abortions performed the previous year. When 266 00:16:57,400 --> 00:17:01,480 Speaker 1: I pushed back, underscoring Plan PA his public facing goal 267 00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:06,720 Speaker 1: of decreasing abortions, I was reprimanded and told abortion is 268 00:17:06,760 --> 00:17:10,000 Speaker 1: how we make our money. The physician asked me to 269 00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:16,080 Speaker 1: assist with an ultrasound guided abortion. Nothing prepared me for 270 00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:21,159 Speaker 1: what I saw on the screen. An unborn baby fighting back, 271 00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:27,000 Speaker 1: desperate to move away from the section. And I'll never 272 00:17:27,040 --> 00:17:31,879 Speaker 1: forget what the doctor said next. Beam me up, Scottie. 273 00:17:33,080 --> 00:17:37,359 Speaker 1: The last thing I saw was a spine twirling around 274 00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:41,479 Speaker 1: in the mother's womb before succumbing to the force of 275 00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:46,680 Speaker 1: the section. Abortion is real. I know what it sounds like. 276 00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:51,040 Speaker 1: I know what abortion smells like. Jason Joyce is a 277 00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:54,439 Speaker 1: great example of the Trump's system. He's a lobsherman from Maine. 278 00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:57,400 Speaker 1: There had been a fight going on between the US 279 00:17:57,520 --> 00:17:59,920 Speaker 1: and the European Union. They had put in a chair 280 00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:03,840 Speaker 1: on lobsters from Maine but not from Canada. So an 281 00:18:03,960 --> 00:18:06,840 Speaker 1: entire business grew up in which, as a main lobsterman, 282 00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:09,800 Speaker 1: you shipped your lobsters to Canada. They took a cut 283 00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:13,440 Speaker 1: and then they sent him to Europe. The president recently 284 00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:17,760 Speaker 1: got that entire tariff abolished. Jason Joyce's business is going 285 00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:21,720 Speaker 1: to be better, very very important, and Maine very important 286 00:18:22,040 --> 00:18:25,080 Speaker 1: in the re election of Susan Collins and Jason Joyce 287 00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:28,600 Speaker 1: was effective and just pointing out the practical reality that 288 00:18:28,760 --> 00:18:33,680 Speaker 1: you have a president who's effective, who gets the job done. Similarly, 289 00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:38,040 Speaker 1: Myron Liza, the Vice President Navahoodation, witnessed the degree to 290 00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:43,360 Speaker 1: which this president was committed to helping Native Americans lead 291 00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:47,720 Speaker 1: the fullest possible life, have great effectiveness, and be totally 292 00:18:47,720 --> 00:18:50,480 Speaker 1: involved in a better future. And I thought having him 293 00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:55,200 Speaker 1: speak from Arizona was very important. Establish a task force 294 00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:59,000 Speaker 1: called Operation Lady Justice to address the problem. The President 295 00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:02,040 Speaker 1: also provided to hundred and seventy three million dollars to 296 00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:05,199 Speaker 1: improve public safety and support victims of crime in the 297 00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:08,840 Speaker 1: Native American community. As a result, a cold case office 298 00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:12,920 Speaker 1: was recently opened on the Hila River Indian community. One 299 00:19:12,920 --> 00:19:15,119 Speaker 1: of the most startling moments of the whole four days 300 00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:19,960 Speaker 1: was John Ponder, the founder and CEO of Hope for Prisoners, 301 00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:22,840 Speaker 1: someone who had been arrested years ago as a bank 302 00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:29,200 Speaker 1: rubber converted to Christianity in prison, really found a commitment 303 00:19:29,240 --> 00:19:33,960 Speaker 1: to reconciliation and to helping other prisoners. He was there 304 00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:37,000 Speaker 1: with the FBI agent who had arrested him because they'd 305 00:19:37,040 --> 00:19:40,199 Speaker 1: become very close friends. And the day he was going 306 00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:44,439 Speaker 1: to speak, the President actually pardoned him. He'd already served 307 00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:47,320 Speaker 1: his time, gotten out, but still had the conviction of 308 00:19:47,320 --> 00:19:50,639 Speaker 1: hanging over his head. Trump pardoned him and what was 309 00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:54,440 Speaker 1: a great moment of reconciliation. And Ponder's story is an 310 00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:57,919 Speaker 1: example those of us who believe in prison reform to 311 00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:02,840 Speaker 1: maximize the opportunity for prisoners to be rehabilitated. She Ponder, 312 00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:05,520 Speaker 1: there's a great example of what we believe in who 313 00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:08,959 Speaker 1: we're trying to accomplish. President Trump, he had made a 314 00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:11,480 Speaker 1: bunch of promises to let me just be transparent. When 315 00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:13,439 Speaker 1: he first started talking about other things he was gonna do. 316 00:20:13,520 --> 00:20:15,600 Speaker 1: I'm sitting there, gonna wait a minute. Year. I mean, 317 00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:18,080 Speaker 1: as he's serious, because everything that he was saying that 318 00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:20,520 Speaker 1: he wanted to do was the stuff that needs to 319 00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:23,720 Speaker 1: be done. And before he walked out that meeting that day, 320 00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:26,520 Speaker 1: I promise I'll make it out there to you know, 321 00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:28,520 Speaker 1: come speak at one of your graduations or heard that 322 00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:33,840 Speaker 1: they were phenomenal. When he stood there in that graduation 323 00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:38,119 Speaker 1: and he went out of his way to shake the 324 00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:43,240 Speaker 1: hand of every one of those twenty nine graduates, set 325 00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:46,240 Speaker 1: them on a whole nother vistive life because they had 326 00:20:46,280 --> 00:20:50,919 Speaker 1: the office of the President of the United States. The 327 00:20:51,119 --> 00:21:10,680 Speaker 1: promises that he made was promises that he kept on Wednesday, 328 00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:17,119 Speaker 1: to be at Fort mccannal, to be describing that magical 329 00:21:17,240 --> 00:21:20,199 Speaker 1: moment during the War of eighteen twelve, when the British 330 00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:24,000 Speaker 1: Navy was bombarding the fort, to describe the flags to 331 00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:28,000 Speaker 1: a fly, to explain the Star Spangled banner, to remind 332 00:21:28,080 --> 00:21:32,880 Speaker 1: people why the first hands ends Land of the Free 333 00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:36,600 Speaker 1: and Home of the brave. As a party committed to 334 00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:42,640 Speaker 1: honoring and treasuring and focusing on American history, American patriotism, 335 00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:46,120 Speaker 1: American exceptionalism, I thought the Vice President couldn't have picked 336 00:21:46,119 --> 00:21:48,320 Speaker 1: a better place, And I thought he did a great 337 00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:53,280 Speaker 1: job communicating that the heroes who held this fort took 338 00:21:53,320 --> 00:22:00,359 Speaker 1: their stand for life, liberty, freedom, and the American flag, 339 00:22:01,880 --> 00:22:05,879 Speaker 1: and those ideals have defined our nation in some ways. 340 00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:10,360 Speaker 1: The most emotional moment Wednesday, and one which was so 341 00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:13,240 Speaker 1: remarkable that I think people who saw it will never 342 00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:17,600 Speaker 1: quite forget it was Madison Cawthorne, who's twenty five years old. 343 00:22:17,600 --> 00:22:20,200 Speaker 1: If he gets elected, he will be the youngest member 344 00:22:20,200 --> 00:22:23,199 Speaker 1: of Congress in two hundred years. He was in a 345 00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:28,240 Speaker 1: car accident, ended up being crippled below the waste, lost 346 00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:31,720 Speaker 1: the use of both legs, spoke openly in his talk 347 00:22:32,200 --> 00:22:36,320 Speaker 1: about having become depressed the possibility of giving up, and 348 00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:38,240 Speaker 1: then turned around and said, Nope, I'm not going to 349 00:22:38,359 --> 00:22:42,000 Speaker 1: do that. I'm going to lead a full life, went 350 00:22:42,040 --> 00:22:45,679 Speaker 1: into the real estate business. Now is the Republican nominee 351 00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:49,440 Speaker 1: for North Flane Is, the eleventh congressional district, and ended 352 00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:53,000 Speaker 1: his speech by two guys coming out and helping him 353 00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:56,240 Speaker 1: as he stood holding on to a walker, but standing 354 00:22:56,280 --> 00:22:59,440 Speaker 1: up even though clearly he'd lost the use of his legs, 355 00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:02,840 Speaker 1: something which President Franklin Donad Roosevelt, who had lost the 356 00:23:02,920 --> 00:23:06,480 Speaker 1: use of his legs Napoleo, would have fully appreciated when 357 00:23:06,520 --> 00:23:11,359 Speaker 1: Madiicine cart it. What's amazing to me about Madison's remarkable 358 00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:15,040 Speaker 1: moment and the witness he gave was how many people 359 00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:18,639 Speaker 1: on the left then attacked him. I mean, when you 360 00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:21,879 Speaker 1: started attacking somebody who's lost the use of both legs, 361 00:23:21,920 --> 00:23:26,439 Speaker 1: and who stands to indicate their commitment to standing for 362 00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:29,040 Speaker 1: the flag and standing for the Pledge of Allegiance and 363 00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:32,120 Speaker 1: standing for the national anthem. If they can do that, 364 00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:36,880 Speaker 1: then the idea of somebody on the left would attack them. 365 00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:40,080 Speaker 1: For him, I thought told you how deranged the left 366 00:23:40,119 --> 00:23:43,399 Speaker 1: to become. You can kneel before God, but stand for 367 00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:46,920 Speaker 1: our flag. I say, two Americans who love our country, 368 00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:54,040 Speaker 1: young and old, be iradical for freedom, be iradical for liberty, 369 00:23:54,920 --> 00:23:58,960 Speaker 1: and be irradical for our republic, for which I stand, 370 00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:05,800 Speaker 1: Nation under God, with liberty and justice for all. On Thursday, 371 00:24:06,119 --> 00:24:09,720 Speaker 1: was also good to have Rudy Giuliani speak. No one 372 00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:13,280 Speaker 1: in America has a better record of bringing crime under 373 00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:17,920 Speaker 1: control than Rudy Giuliani. In his partnership with Bill Bretton, 374 00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:21,760 Speaker 1: Rudy's a guy who knows that this current surge in 375 00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:26,040 Speaker 1: murders and shootings around the country absolutely can be fixed 376 00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:30,600 Speaker 1: if you apply solid sound policing principles, and if you 377 00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:35,639 Speaker 1: apply solid sound conservative principles of locking up predators and 378 00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:38,320 Speaker 1: not allowing them back on the street. I though it 379 00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:41,960 Speaker 1: was very important for Rudy to speak as the convention 380 00:24:42,080 --> 00:24:47,720 Speaker 1: was winding up. Alanka Trump did a remarkable job of 381 00:24:47,760 --> 00:24:53,840 Speaker 1: really outlining both at a family level and at a 382 00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:59,080 Speaker 1: professional level, the Donald Trump that she sees. I thought 383 00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:05,040 Speaker 1: her descript of her son creating a lego version of 384 00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:08,159 Speaker 1: the White House and the President displaying it was a 385 00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:14,040 Speaker 1: great example. She is remarkably articulate, and she has a 386 00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:18,000 Speaker 1: instinct for wanting to help people who were in need, 387 00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:21,960 Speaker 1: whether it's a family that needs shellcare, or it's a 388 00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:25,399 Speaker 1: prisoner that needs rehabilitation, or it's somebody who needs to 389 00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:30,679 Speaker 1: go to a school that actually succeeds. She just I 390 00:25:30,680 --> 00:25:34,680 Speaker 1: thought very powerful and compelling. Introducing the President now, more 391 00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:38,920 Speaker 1: than ever, American needs four more years of a warrior 392 00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:42,240 Speaker 1: in the White House Tonight, I could not be more 393 00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:45,560 Speaker 1: proud to introduce my father, a man I know was 394 00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:50,680 Speaker 1: made for this moment in history, my fellow Americans, our 395 00:25:50,760 --> 00:25:54,760 Speaker 1: first lady, and the forty fifth President of the United States, 396 00:25:55,400 --> 00:26:02,920 Speaker 1: Donald J. Trump. President Trump spoke for over seventy minutes. 397 00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:07,280 Speaker 1: First of all, the setting was remarkable, and I do 398 00:26:07,359 --> 00:26:10,640 Speaker 1: want to repeat it was not on precedented. Franklin Donor 399 00:26:10,720 --> 00:26:14,600 Speaker 1: Roosevelt spoke from the White House in nineteen forty when 400 00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:18,880 Speaker 1: he accepted his party's nomination for the third time the president. 401 00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:21,680 Speaker 1: I thought when he and Melania came out, they looked great. 402 00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:26,919 Speaker 1: The background was fabulous. She looked remarkable standing next to him, 403 00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:31,280 Speaker 1: she just stood out so vividly. I thought, this was 404 00:26:31,320 --> 00:26:38,040 Speaker 1: the time for a solemn, calm, serious speech. This is 405 00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:41,040 Speaker 1: the psychological father of the country, the president, the commander. 406 00:26:42,119 --> 00:26:45,399 Speaker 1: He is reporting on his first four years, and he 407 00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:47,800 Speaker 1: is sharing what he would do in his second four years. 408 00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:50,560 Speaker 1: And I was very struck that he had a very 409 00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:55,119 Speaker 1: calm delivery. He had a tempo that was designed so 410 00:26:55,160 --> 00:26:58,120 Speaker 1: he could hear him, and I thought that the pacing 411 00:26:58,440 --> 00:27:02,840 Speaker 1: was actually better for Trump than a normal campaign speech. Together, 412 00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:07,600 Speaker 1: we will write the next chapter of the great American story. 413 00:27:08,720 --> 00:27:11,480 Speaker 1: Over the next four years, we will make America into 414 00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:17,240 Speaker 1: the manufacturing superpower of the world. We will expand opportunity zones. 415 00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:24,720 Speaker 1: Thank you, Tim Scott, bring home our medical supply chains, 416 00:27:24,760 --> 00:27:29,720 Speaker 1: and we will end her resilience for bad things. We 417 00:27:29,800 --> 00:27:33,760 Speaker 1: will go right after China. We will not rely on 418 00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:37,639 Speaker 1: them one bit. We're taking our business out of China. 419 00:27:38,080 --> 00:27:41,760 Speaker 1: We are bringing it home. We want our business to 420 00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:46,919 Speaker 1: come home. We will continue to reduce taxes and regulations 421 00:27:46,960 --> 00:27:51,120 Speaker 1: at levels not seen before. We will create ten million 422 00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:56,479 Speaker 1: jobs in the next ten months. I think we're at 423 00:27:56,480 --> 00:28:01,280 Speaker 1: a moment in our country's history where it's the most 424 00:28:01,280 --> 00:28:06,040 Speaker 1: important election since eighteen sixty four. Lincoln, running for re 425 00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:10,720 Speaker 1: election in eighteen sixty four was up against McClellan, who 426 00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:14,800 Speaker 1: would have allowed the South to secede, would have allowed 427 00:28:14,840 --> 00:28:18,040 Speaker 1: slavery to exist, and would have an effect destroyed the 428 00:28:18,119 --> 00:28:22,400 Speaker 1: United States. So the gap between electing McClellan and electing 429 00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:26,000 Speaker 1: Lincoln was enormous. I think the gap here is not 430 00:28:26,119 --> 00:28:31,200 Speaker 1: quite that big, but there's no election in between that's comparable. 431 00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:34,679 Speaker 1: So over a century and a half, this is the 432 00:28:34,800 --> 00:28:39,280 Speaker 1: most important election. What do you want when you have 433 00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:46,440 Speaker 1: this many different problems all piling up. Is you want calm, 434 00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:52,200 Speaker 1: steady confidence. You want a sense of purpose, you want 435 00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:55,960 Speaker 1: a sense of effectiveness. This was I think the most 436 00:28:56,000 --> 00:28:59,600 Speaker 1: important single speech of the whole campaign. It was designed 437 00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:03,680 Speaker 1: to say, all of us, I am deeply committed to 438 00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:09,200 Speaker 1: this kind of America. I am deeply committed to every 439 00:29:09,240 --> 00:29:12,160 Speaker 1: American having a better future. I thought it was the 440 00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:16,280 Speaker 1: right speech with the right tone. Pull up the Biden 441 00:29:16,400 --> 00:29:20,680 Speaker 1: text and the Trump text. Notice how Biden's almost entirely 442 00:29:20,720 --> 00:29:26,959 Speaker 1: emotion and no facts, no real proposals, no real policies, 443 00:29:27,240 --> 00:29:30,800 Speaker 1: because frankly, all of their policies are so bad that 444 00:29:30,840 --> 00:29:32,920 Speaker 1: if they start telling you about them, they're going to 445 00:29:32,960 --> 00:29:35,680 Speaker 1: lose votes every single time they talk about them. And 446 00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:38,800 Speaker 1: then look at what Trump did, step by step, building 447 00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:41,640 Speaker 1: block by building block, and you can see the difference 448 00:29:42,120 --> 00:29:46,440 Speaker 1: in the two parties. Finally, I can't wrap up the 449 00:29:46,480 --> 00:29:50,600 Speaker 1: week without also mentioning that when the singing goes from 450 00:29:51,440 --> 00:29:56,120 Speaker 1: opera Too Proud to be an American to everything in between, 451 00:29:56,880 --> 00:30:00,680 Speaker 1: you have a sense of a presidency which is appealing 452 00:30:00,960 --> 00:30:04,400 Speaker 1: to all sorts of different Americans. And I think that's 453 00:30:04,440 --> 00:30:08,480 Speaker 1: a hallmark of this president. Now, I think you have 454 00:30:08,520 --> 00:30:12,840 Speaker 1: to look at the two conventions side by side and 455 00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:15,840 Speaker 1: then say what does it all mean. I think you 456 00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:20,840 Speaker 1: have a Democratic Party which is old, it's tired. Somebody 457 00:30:20,880 --> 00:30:24,400 Speaker 1: calculated that the top three Democratic leaders in the Congress 458 00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:28,160 Speaker 1: have between them something like one hundred and twenty six 459 00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:31,120 Speaker 1: years of experience, which means one hundred and twenty six years. 460 00:30:31,160 --> 00:30:34,880 Speaker 1: In Washington. You have a Democratic party who's Speaker of 461 00:30:34,880 --> 00:30:38,880 Speaker 1: the House and vice presidential Canada both come from San Francisco, 462 00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:43,080 Speaker 1: a city so liberal it's collapsing, with people literally leaving 463 00:30:43,120 --> 00:30:46,520 Speaker 1: the city because they can't take anymore, the homeless, the 464 00:30:46,600 --> 00:30:50,480 Speaker 1: feces in the street, the crime, etc. I think you 465 00:30:50,520 --> 00:30:55,040 Speaker 1: have a Democratic party who is tired falls back on 466 00:30:55,880 --> 00:31:01,000 Speaker 1: the left wing slogans. Biden gave a decent speech because 467 00:31:01,040 --> 00:31:03,080 Speaker 1: our expectations were so low. We thought it was a 468 00:31:03,080 --> 00:31:06,440 Speaker 1: good speech. If we'd actually measured it against normal politicians, 469 00:31:06,440 --> 00:31:09,520 Speaker 1: we'd said, adequate speech. You had lots of different interesting 470 00:31:09,560 --> 00:31:12,480 Speaker 1: people coming from all over the place on the Republican side. 471 00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:17,160 Speaker 1: On the Democratic side, you had the fact is Michelle 472 00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:21,040 Speaker 1: Obama couldn't be bothered to leave their home in Cape God. 473 00:31:22,160 --> 00:31:25,240 Speaker 1: The fact is Hillary Clintland couldn't be bothered to leave 474 00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:27,640 Speaker 1: her home in New York. I say, how all of 475 00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:32,040 Speaker 1: these kind of disjointed sort of family videos. The production 476 00:31:32,120 --> 00:31:34,960 Speaker 1: was okay, but it wasn't striking, it wasn't powerful. You 477 00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:38,600 Speaker 1: compare that with the energy, the passion, the commitment of 478 00:31:38,640 --> 00:31:41,719 Speaker 1: the various witnesses, and that's really what they were. They 479 00:31:41,720 --> 00:31:45,400 Speaker 1: were witnesses and the Republican side, and as I tweeted 480 00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:49,640 Speaker 1: at one point, you now have an emerging idea oriented 481 00:31:50,440 --> 00:31:56,400 Speaker 1: younger inclusive Republican Party, far and away the most inclusive 482 00:31:56,440 --> 00:31:59,840 Speaker 1: party in the history of the Republican Party. More people, 483 00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:03,680 Speaker 1: more backgrounds were in this convention for these four days 484 00:32:03,920 --> 00:32:06,760 Speaker 1: than ever in history of Publican Party, which explains part 485 00:32:06,760 --> 00:32:10,040 Speaker 1: of the never Trumpers, who are just bitter, tired people 486 00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:13,560 Speaker 1: who resent all this new energy, all these new ideas, 487 00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:19,440 Speaker 1: all these new approaches. What I think it means well, First, 488 00:32:19,440 --> 00:32:22,680 Speaker 1: to Alien's very telling, the Trump actually gained ground the 489 00:32:22,760 --> 00:32:26,280 Speaker 1: week of the Democratic Convention. He was more acceptable at 490 00:32:26,320 --> 00:32:28,560 Speaker 1: the end of the week than the beginning, which, frankly, 491 00:32:28,600 --> 00:32:30,600 Speaker 1: if you're the Democrats, should worry you a whole lot. 492 00:32:31,320 --> 00:32:37,400 Speaker 1: I think that it is clear that neither on the 493 00:32:37,480 --> 00:32:41,440 Speaker 1: Chinese virus, nor on violence in the streets to the 494 00:32:41,480 --> 00:32:45,600 Speaker 1: Democrats have any solutions. I think that it's very likely 495 00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:49,120 Speaker 1: that you're now going to see a growing crescendo and 496 00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:51,640 Speaker 1: that by the time we get to the election that 497 00:32:51,760 --> 00:32:55,120 Speaker 1: the president will win by a surprising margin. There's one 498 00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:59,280 Speaker 1: projection by a guy who uses primary vote turnout and 499 00:32:59,440 --> 00:33:03,200 Speaker 1: his model has worked for twenty five of the last 500 00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:07,320 Speaker 1: twenty seven elections going back to nineteen twelve, and he 501 00:33:07,360 --> 00:33:10,280 Speaker 1: predicts Trump gets three hundred and seventy six electoral votes. 502 00:33:10,960 --> 00:33:13,600 Speaker 1: I wouldn't be shocked by that because I think the 503 00:33:13,600 --> 00:33:16,760 Speaker 1: Democrats are likely to collapse, and I think that Trump's 504 00:33:16,760 --> 00:33:19,640 Speaker 1: share of the Black vote, his share of the Hispanic vote, 505 00:33:19,960 --> 00:33:21,960 Speaker 1: his share of the Asian vote, will be an all 506 00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:26,640 Speaker 1: time high. I also think a lot of people who 507 00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:30,160 Speaker 1: aren't always happy with his tweets, they're not always happy 508 00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:33,880 Speaker 1: with the toughness of his personality when they watch what's 509 00:33:33,920 --> 00:33:36,400 Speaker 1: going on in the street. My wife and my son 510 00:33:36,440 --> 00:33:39,120 Speaker 1: in law are both from Wisconsin. What they're saying in 511 00:33:39,200 --> 00:33:43,880 Speaker 1: Kenosha is totally unacceptable to the average person in Wisconsin. 512 00:33:44,520 --> 00:33:46,680 Speaker 1: And I think you see this happening again and again. 513 00:33:47,160 --> 00:33:49,240 Speaker 1: I think the other night when people leaving the White 514 00:33:49,280 --> 00:33:53,960 Speaker 1: House were being harassed, attacked, bullied, I think people bitterly 515 00:33:54,000 --> 00:33:56,680 Speaker 1: resent that, and I think all of that undermines the 516 00:33:56,720 --> 00:33:59,440 Speaker 1: Democratic Party, and so I think that this was a 517 00:33:59,520 --> 00:34:02,680 Speaker 1: very import two weeks. These are the two weeks when 518 00:34:02,720 --> 00:34:05,600 Speaker 1: Biden had to break out, he failed, And these are 519 00:34:05,640 --> 00:34:08,040 Speaker 1: two weeks when Trump had to reassure us that he 520 00:34:08,120 --> 00:34:11,239 Speaker 1: really was capable of being president, and he really did 521 00:34:11,320 --> 00:34:13,759 Speaker 1: have a vision for the future, and he really did 522 00:34:13,840 --> 00:34:16,960 Speaker 1: represent a very broad America, and I think he achieved 523 00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:19,000 Speaker 1: in that, and so I would say we are leaving 524 00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:23,080 Speaker 1: the convention period going into the general election with enormous 525 00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:26,359 Speaker 1: opportunity for not just President Trump, but for the entire 526 00:34:26,360 --> 00:34:49,360 Speaker 1: Republican ticket.
