WEBVTT - Senator Mike Lee - October 25th, Hour 2 0:00:00.360 --> 0:00:03.400 All right, thanks Scott Channon. Hour two Sean Hannity Show, 0:00:03.480 --> 0:00:05.800 toll free. It is eight hundred and nine to four 0:00:05.840 --> 0:00:07.800 one Sean, if you want to be a part of 0:00:07.960 --> 0:00:10.920 the program. It is election day in America. There's voting 0:00:10.960 --> 0:00:14.120 going on. That's election Day, and this is early voting 0:00:14.200 --> 0:00:17.400 still ongoing, by the way, over the weekend in some states. 0:00:18.440 --> 0:00:20.720 And as a public service, we've put up how you 0:00:20.760 --> 0:00:23.800 can register to vote regardless of party number Crame Republican, 0:00:23.840 --> 0:00:27.880 doesn't matter. And when early voting starts and stops in 0:00:27.920 --> 0:00:32.360 your state, your commonwealth. Some states will be stopping early 0:00:32.440 --> 0:00:35.800 voting as early as next week, and that would mean 0:00:35.840 --> 0:00:38.440 you then would be eligible to vote if you're registered, 0:00:38.440 --> 0:00:45.000 assuming you're registered on election day. But I urge people 0:00:45.040 --> 0:00:48.080 to bank their vote. Jobis Dardi is pretty adamant that 0:00:48.159 --> 0:00:50.320 there is a risk that we may have won if 0:00:50.320 --> 0:00:52.640 not two more hurricanes. I pray it's not true, but 0:00:52.640 --> 0:00:55.560 he keeps telling me it's a strong possibility. I want 0:00:55.560 --> 0:00:57.760 to go back to our top story of the day 0:00:57.800 --> 0:01:02.720 because it's so repulsive. It's so gusting. Hillary Clinton out 0:01:02.760 --> 0:01:08.000 there saying on fake news CNN that she and this 0:01:08.080 --> 0:01:13.280 is the day after Kamos said that Donald Trump was 0:01:13.280 --> 0:01:17.680 a fascist. And now she goes to the Hitler analogy, 0:01:17.840 --> 0:01:22.400 talking about Donald Trump going to Madison Square Garden. It's 0:01:22.440 --> 0:01:26.200 sold out in like an hour, comparing it to Hitler's 0:01:26.480 --> 0:01:30.039 rally in nineteen thirty nine. I write about this in 0:01:30.080 --> 0:01:33.400 my book. The former First Lady continued, and President Franklin 0:01:33.480 --> 0:01:36.720 Roosevelt was a pall that neo Nazi fascists in America 0:01:36.760 --> 0:01:39.520 were lining up to essentially pledge their support for the 0:01:39.640 --> 0:01:42.480 kind of government that they are seeing in Germany. So 0:01:42.520 --> 0:01:45.800 I don't think we can ignore it. We have a 0:01:45.800 --> 0:01:48.400 whole history of this, but here's what she said. 0:01:50.400 --> 0:01:50.600 Now. 0:01:50.640 --> 0:01:54.000 One other thing that you'll see next week, Caitlin, is 0:01:55.040 --> 0:02:02.840 Trump actually re enacting the Madison Square Garden rally in 0:02:02.920 --> 0:02:05.680 nineteen thirty nine. I write about this in my book. 0:02:06.520 --> 0:02:12.280 President Franklin Roosevelt was appalled that neo Nazis fascists in 0:02:12.400 --> 0:02:18.960 America we're lining up to essentially pledge their support for 0:02:19.040 --> 0:02:22.720 the kind of government that they were seeing in Germany. 0:02:23.400 --> 0:02:25.640 So I don't think we can ignore it. 0:02:25.680 --> 0:02:25.920 Now. 0:02:26.200 --> 0:02:28.800 It may be a leap for some people, and a 0:02:28.840 --> 0:02:31.200 lot of others may think I don't want to go there. 0:02:31.240 --> 0:02:34.600 I don't want to say that, but please open your 0:02:34.639 --> 0:02:38.920 eyes to the danger that this man poses to our country, 0:02:39.760 --> 0:02:42.880 because I think it is clear and present for anybody 0:02:42.880 --> 0:02:43.600 paying attention. 0:02:44.919 --> 0:02:48.280 I mean, it is so reckless, it is so irresponsible, 0:02:48.400 --> 0:02:52.200 it is so untrue. And this is now we have 0:02:52.240 --> 0:02:56.040 a history of this is what Democrats do. To the 0:02:56.080 --> 0:02:59.320 credit of House Speaker Mike Johnson, he joined with one 0:02:59.320 --> 0:03:03.079 of the biggest of Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, warning 0:03:03.120 --> 0:03:08.360 Kamala Harris that she could be encouraging another assassination attempt 0:03:08.400 --> 0:03:10.919 and that would mean her surrogates. We have both been 0:03:10.960 --> 0:03:14.240 briefed on the ongoing and persistent threats to former President 0:03:14.280 --> 0:03:18.000 Donald Trump by adversaries. We've had two would be assassins, 0:03:18.320 --> 0:03:21.480 one full on assassination attempt that came within a millimeter 0:03:21.760 --> 0:03:26.160 taking his life. We have Iranian assassination squads in the country. 0:03:26.560 --> 0:03:30.000 And Democrats closing argument is Trump is a racist, a fascist, 0:03:30.639 --> 0:03:33.959 and a Nazi, and he's a He's Adolf Hitler, Stalin 0:03:34.480 --> 0:03:37.560 and Mussolini. Anyway, they go on and say, and we 0:03:37.680 --> 0:03:40.720 call on the Vice president to take these threats seriously, 0:03:40.800 --> 0:03:44.720 stop escalating the threat environment, help ensure President Trump has 0:03:44.760 --> 0:03:49.400 the necessary resources to be protected from those threats, and 0:03:49.600 --> 0:03:52.800 after the first assassination attempt this summer of a presidential 0:03:52.840 --> 0:03:56.920 candidate more than a century, President Biden insisted that we 0:03:57.000 --> 0:04:00.880 can't allow this violence to be normalized. In September, after 0:04:00.920 --> 0:04:05.080 President Trump escaped yet another close call, Vice President Harris acknowledged, 0:04:05.080 --> 0:04:07.000 we must all do our part to ensure that this 0:04:07.120 --> 0:04:10.240 incident does not lead to more violence. Asked whether Trump 0:04:10.320 --> 0:04:13.600 was a fascist, he said, yes. I went through the 0:04:13.680 --> 0:04:16.760 history of this. I mean, go you can go back 0:04:16.800 --> 0:04:21.880 to Barry Goldwater nineteen sixty four, and you had as 0:04:21.880 --> 0:04:25.480 he was running for president, you had celebrities, you had journalists, 0:04:25.480 --> 0:04:30.760 politicians wanting that that Goldwater was an extreme fascist who 0:04:30.760 --> 0:04:35.200 would cause a considerable harm to the country. And this 0:04:35.320 --> 0:04:36.719 is the guy, by the way, that served as a 0:04:36.720 --> 0:04:39.760 pilot during World War Two, and he's being likened to 0:04:39.880 --> 0:04:45.480 Nazis and fascists who were promoting conservatism during his presidential campaign. 0:04:46.160 --> 0:04:51.080 Even at the time, Governor Pat Brown remarked about Goldwater's 0:04:51.120 --> 0:04:54.360 acceptance speech, claiming he had the stench of fascism. All 0:04:54.400 --> 0:04:57.760 we needed to hear was Kyle Hitler, and there were others, 0:04:57.839 --> 0:05:01.120 you know, Hubert Humphrey referring to Richard Nixon. You know, 0:05:01.160 --> 0:05:04.000 if the British had not fought in nineteen forty, Hitler 0:05:04.040 --> 0:05:06.560 would have been in London. And if the Democrats don't 0:05:06.560 --> 0:05:08.760 fight in nineteen sixty eight, Nixon will be in the 0:05:08.800 --> 0:05:12.400 White House. And the comparisons for Nixon, they pretty much 0:05:12.680 --> 0:05:17.279 never stopped ever. And you know there's a news cycle 0:05:17.320 --> 0:05:20.479 from October of seventy two, and you could see it 0:05:20.480 --> 0:05:24.719 on the CIA's website referring to Nixon's Nazis as part 0:05:24.760 --> 0:05:28.920 of the Commentarygan criticism Gerald Ford. 0:05:29.040 --> 0:05:29.600 Same thing. 0:05:30.200 --> 0:05:34.360 If President Ford's principal had been the rule in Norremberg, 0:05:35.120 --> 0:05:37.240 I mean, and by the way, this is the ACLU 0:05:37.360 --> 0:05:40.440 criticizing Ford for his lack of punitive action against Nixon. 0:05:40.839 --> 0:05:43.159 The Nazi leaders would have been let off and the 0:05:43.200 --> 0:05:45.960 only people who carried out their schemes would have been tried. 0:05:46.720 --> 0:05:49.240 They said that the same thing about Reagan all the time, 0:05:49.320 --> 0:05:51.920 that he's going to start World War three, he's a warmonger. 0:05:51.960 --> 0:05:55.680 Congressman William Clay stated Reagan wanted to replace the Bill 0:05:55.720 --> 0:05:59.839 of Rights with fascist precepts lifted verbade him from MINEK. 0:06:01.000 --> 0:06:01.719 George W. 0:06:01.839 --> 0:06:05.080 Bush might have been the Republican who's got the most 0:06:05.160 --> 0:06:09.520 Nazi analogies prior to Trump, you know, called every dirty 0:06:09.600 --> 0:06:12.880 name in the book on a regular basis, and examples 0:06:12.920 --> 0:06:18.200 of lincing Bush to Hitler, Nazis, Fascist, Mitt Romney, even 0:06:18.279 --> 0:06:22.120 Mitt Romney and John McCain. Romney, in his case many 0:06:22.120 --> 0:06:25.479 Democrats that they love so much today when he was running, 0:06:25.920 --> 0:06:30.000 was linked to Nazism and fascism. One delegate from Kansas 0:06:30.000 --> 0:06:33.760 said Romney was a habitual liar and likened him to Hitler, 0:06:34.360 --> 0:06:39.360 Paul Ryan, same thing. This is their tried and true desperation. 0:06:40.240 --> 0:06:44.320 It is disgusting, it is repulsive, and in this environment 0:06:45.080 --> 0:06:47.680 where we've had now two would be assassins, it is 0:06:47.800 --> 0:06:50.880 just downright dangerous for the country. I don't think it 0:06:50.880 --> 0:06:54.400 can be said enough anyway. Senator Mike Lee is here 0:06:54.880 --> 0:06:57.800 from Utah. Senator, how are you glad you're with us? 0:06:59.120 --> 0:07:00.320 What is your reaction all this? 0:07:01.480 --> 0:07:04.800 Well, look, anytime somebody is throwing around terms like fascism 0:07:05.200 --> 0:07:09.640 or using what we call add hit layerum attacks, they're desperate. 0:07:09.960 --> 0:07:13.120 The Kamala Harris campaign is desperate to breathe new life 0:07:13.120 --> 0:07:15.680 into a campaign that's been sailing ever since it got 0:07:15.720 --> 0:07:18.840 off the ground, that is, after the initial honeymoon period 0:07:18.880 --> 0:07:21.000 of a few weeks when nobody was asking any questions 0:07:21.040 --> 0:07:24.080 about what she believes, what she has said, what she's 0:07:24.120 --> 0:07:27.720 done in office. So these are acts of desperation, and 0:07:27.800 --> 0:07:31.000 they are moreover quite ironic. These are rich coming from 0:07:31.000 --> 0:07:34.960 people who very much want the government that would exercise 0:07:35.280 --> 0:07:38.880 give in to authoritarian impulses to manage every aspect of 0:07:38.880 --> 0:07:42.160 the lives of the American people. So I don't think 0:07:42.200 --> 0:07:46.960 they're worth giving any credence to. But more importantly, they 0:07:47.000 --> 0:07:49.320 speak to the desperation of the Kamala Harris campaign. 0:07:50.480 --> 0:07:55.239 Dozens of former Trump staffers, including Mike Penz's chief of staff, 0:07:55.360 --> 0:07:59.520 two hundred plus admirals generals that this week have endorsed 0:07:59.520 --> 0:08:01.960 Donald trum of all said it is complete and utter, 0:08:02.120 --> 0:08:06.480 bs and patently false, But they continue to do it. 0:08:06.560 --> 0:08:09.160 This seems to be their closing argument. How does this 0:08:09.200 --> 0:08:10.680 go over with the American people? 0:08:11.720 --> 0:08:14.160 Well, look, I don't think it's going to work, because, 0:08:14.440 --> 0:08:18.080 first of all, if you want to choose somebody of 0:08:18.160 --> 0:08:22.720 being a hitler in embryo, it's an easier accusation to 0:08:22.760 --> 0:08:25.440 make before they've actually been president of the United States. 0:08:25.760 --> 0:08:30.000 Now Democrats might not like President Trump's policies his decisions 0:08:30.000 --> 0:08:31.880 while in office, but I don't think anybody can accuse 0:08:31.960 --> 0:08:35.640 him of having governed like a dictator because he didn't. 0:08:36.160 --> 0:08:38.880 He reduced the overall profile of the federal government, the 0:08:38.920 --> 0:08:42.920 overall intrusiveness of the United States government, rather than expanding it. 0:08:42.960 --> 0:08:45.680 That's rather the opposite of fascism. 0:08:46.360 --> 0:08:48.800 Oh, it really is. All right, let's get your take 0:08:48.840 --> 0:08:51.560 on the state of the campaign. I say it's election 0:08:51.720 --> 0:08:54.200 day today because if you can vote, it's election day, 0:08:54.240 --> 0:08:59.079 but we're only eleven days away from election day, November fifth, 0:09:00.160 --> 0:09:02.240 And what's your take on the state of the race. 0:09:04.120 --> 0:09:08.760 Look, Trump is doing really well right now, Kamalos tanking 0:09:08.920 --> 0:09:12.760 Trump his ascendant, and I think the signs are looking 0:09:12.880 --> 0:09:15.800 very positive for President Trump. We also have to pay 0:09:15.800 --> 0:09:19.559 attention to other federal races going on. I think it's 0:09:19.640 --> 0:09:22.439 very important to Trump come into office that he have 0:09:22.520 --> 0:09:28.079 a Republican Congress to work with. We've got huge opportunities 0:09:28.120 --> 0:09:33.120 that we're seizing as Republicans in of course West Virginia, 0:09:33.120 --> 0:09:35.040 where we're going to pick up a seat, Montana where 0:09:35.040 --> 0:09:37.960 we're very likely to pick up a seat, Ohio, which 0:09:38.000 --> 0:09:40.400 I just returned from or is campaigning with my friend 0:09:40.400 --> 0:09:42.719 Bernie Mareno. Up there, he's right by the way. 0:09:42.720 --> 0:09:46.560 He's looking good. He's now taken a lead. Mike Rogers 0:09:46.640 --> 0:09:50.360 is within one in Michigan. We have Dave McCormick taken 0:09:50.559 --> 0:09:54.760 a lead in Pennsylvania. We have a very close race 0:09:54.920 --> 0:09:56.079 in Wisconsin as well. 0:09:56.120 --> 0:09:56.600 Did you go to. 0:09:56.559 --> 0:10:01.560 Wisconsin, Yeah, just got a fung with my friend Ron Johnson. 0:10:01.720 --> 0:10:04.400 Eric Humpy's doing really well up there. Have been down 0:10:04.440 --> 0:10:06.600 to Arizona a couple of times, work with Terry Lake, 0:10:07.160 --> 0:10:10.760 Sam Brown. And Nevada is doing well. We've got a 0:10:10.840 --> 0:10:17.520 chance even in New Mexico with Mela diminishing. So I 0:10:17.559 --> 0:10:20.280 think it's very very likely Sean, that at the end 0:10:20.320 --> 0:10:22.240 of this we're going to end up with the Senate 0:10:22.240 --> 0:10:26.280 Republican majority of fifty three or fifty four seats. The 0:10:26.360 --> 0:10:29.160 House is a little bit closer right now. But if 0:10:29.160 --> 0:10:31.559 Trump wins, which at this point I think he's going to, 0:10:32.160 --> 0:10:34.480 I think his coatails are going to be long enough 0:10:35.120 --> 0:10:38.360 to pull enough of our candidate's the victory in the 0:10:38.400 --> 0:10:41.000 House that will lend with the clean sweep with both 0:10:41.040 --> 0:10:46.000 houses of Congress aligned with the Republican Party and we continue. 0:10:45.559 --> 0:10:49.480 Now with US Senator from the great State of Utah, 0:10:49.600 --> 0:10:50.160 Mike Lee. 0:10:50.080 --> 0:10:50.559 Is with us. 0:10:50.760 --> 0:10:54.560 It's kind of amazing the cycle of Kamala Harris. She 0:10:54.600 --> 0:10:57.600 starts out as one of the most disliked vice presidents 0:10:57.600 --> 0:11:01.480 in the histon in modern history, and then there's this 0:11:01.720 --> 0:11:05.800 silent coup and threats apparently to Joe Biden that they'd 0:11:05.840 --> 0:11:08.400 invoked the twenty fifth Amendment if he doesn't step aside. 0:11:08.720 --> 0:11:12.440 And it seems that the people involved were Obama, Schumer, 0:11:12.640 --> 0:11:16.000 Pelosi in particular. I'm sure we'll get the full story 0:11:16.040 --> 0:11:18.120 one day, but you know, as we try to piece 0:11:18.160 --> 0:11:22.080 together what really happened here, and in comes Kamala Harris, 0:11:22.120 --> 0:11:26.600 not getting a single vote, Joe Biden pushed aside. Meanwhile, 0:11:26.640 --> 0:11:31.480 everybody ignored his significant cognitive decline for the entire time 0:11:31.520 --> 0:11:33.440 he was president, and I was warning about it before 0:11:33.440 --> 0:11:37.280 he ever, you know, ran in twenty twenty, and in 0:11:37.320 --> 0:11:40.880 the beginning I was brutally attacked for saying the obvious 0:11:40.960 --> 0:11:44.560 or stating the obvious. And in she comes, and then 0:11:44.600 --> 0:11:48.320 all of a sudden, the Joy campaign emerges, and then 0:11:48.400 --> 0:11:52.600 we do some vetting of Kamala Harris co sponsoring New 0:11:52.640 --> 0:11:55.960 Green Deal ninety three trillion, elimination of the filibuster with 0:11:56.040 --> 0:12:00.719 Bernie Sanders co sponsoring government healthcare Medicare for All, elimination 0:12:00.800 --> 0:12:04.040 of private health insurance. Then we find oh, I will 0:12:04.200 --> 0:12:07.960 ban fracking, I will ban offshore drilling. Then we find 0:12:08.040 --> 0:12:12.040 Kamala Harris in twenty twenty four, days after a police 0:12:12.080 --> 0:12:15.720 precinct is burned of the ground in Minneapolis, she's tweeting 0:12:15.720 --> 0:12:18.040 out a bail fund for the writers and the people 0:12:18.400 --> 0:12:21.079 involved in the writing, and then going on Colbert saying 0:12:21.240 --> 0:12:23.640 they won't stop, they shouldn't stop, and we're not going 0:12:23.679 --> 0:12:27.400 to stop. Then you have her extreme positions and defund 0:12:27.520 --> 0:12:31.800 and dismantled no bail laws, reimagining Ice, reimagining the police. 0:12:32.600 --> 0:12:35.880 Then you have the insanity of her border policies, and 0:12:35.920 --> 0:12:40.360 we know what they are, which is decriminalizing illegal immigration, 0:12:40.480 --> 0:12:45.360 pre housing, food, healthcare, education, sex change operations. If you 0:12:45.440 --> 0:12:47.840 want them, if you include a running mate, you get 0:12:47.880 --> 0:12:51.319 also free college and a legal driver's license and a 0:12:51.360 --> 0:12:55.600 path to amnesty. Never mind her foreign policy, where she 0:12:55.720 --> 0:12:58.679 and Joe Biden helped make the Iranians rich again the 0:12:58.760 --> 0:13:01.240 number one state sponsor of terror by turning a blind 0:13:01.240 --> 0:13:04.040 eye to sanctions. No, I don't think they can run 0:13:04.080 --> 0:13:07.200 on this question are you better off than you were 0:13:07.240 --> 0:13:10.120 four years ago? Because they can't name a single topic. 0:13:10.200 --> 0:13:12.800 That's exactly right. And J Sean, that was a brilliant 0:13:12.960 --> 0:13:17.360 list of kabo as the defenses against the American people, 0:13:17.600 --> 0:13:21.440 against the cause of freedom. There's only one of them, 0:13:21.440 --> 0:13:24.120 but only one that I would add. I would add 0:13:24.160 --> 0:13:28.480 one other that's getting too little attention. Kamala, as one 0:13:28.480 --> 0:13:31.360 of the centerpieces of her legislative agenda during her short 0:13:31.440 --> 0:13:34.280 four year tenure as a US Senator, introduced a bill 0:13:34.360 --> 0:13:37.760 called the Dono Harm Act. Now, the mainstream media covers 0:13:37.760 --> 0:13:40.560 this not at all. The reason they don't is because 0:13:40.559 --> 0:13:43.480 the Do No Harm Act would completely gut the Religious 0:13:43.480 --> 0:13:46.160 Freedom Restoration Acts. This is a bill that passed with 0:13:46.240 --> 0:13:49.880 an overwhelming bipartisan supermajority in the early nineteen nineties, was 0:13:49.960 --> 0:13:53.240 signed into law by Democratic President Bill Clinton, and it 0:13:53.320 --> 0:13:58.480 protects the religious freedom of Americans whose religious freedom might 0:13:58.520 --> 0:14:01.880 sometimes intersect with whatever for the law requires or the 0:14:01.880 --> 0:14:05.520 government requires at any given time. It's a very good 0:14:05.640 --> 0:14:09.120 law that served the American people well. Kamala would completely 0:14:09.240 --> 0:14:12.800 gut it. She would gut it in any circumstance where 0:14:12.840 --> 0:14:15.960 anyone suffered what she referred to as dignitary harm, meaning 0:14:16.000 --> 0:14:20.960 they felt insulted by something, and there's pretty much nothing 0:14:21.080 --> 0:14:24.720 left of the Religious Freedom Restoration Act at that point. 0:14:25.160 --> 0:14:27.240 So if you are a religious minority, or if you're 0:14:27.280 --> 0:14:31.120 a religious person one who holds a traditional Christian or 0:14:31.200 --> 0:14:34.880 Jewish or some other traditional belief that sometimes runs a 0:14:34.960 --> 0:14:37.880 foul of what the government would have to do, this 0:14:37.960 --> 0:14:41.280 should be really concerning to you. And that's why, notwithstanding 0:14:41.320 --> 0:14:44.000 the fact that the polls you're looking good for us 0:14:44.400 --> 0:14:47.040 in many respects, we cannot let up. We've got to 0:14:47.040 --> 0:14:49.720 be as diligent as ever. We can take nothing for 0:14:49.960 --> 0:14:56.000 granted because the fact is that she's got the mainstream 0:14:56.040 --> 0:14:59.640 news media, she's got the entertainment media industry behind her, 0:15:00.120 --> 0:15:04.840 so many people gunning for her, and even though she's struggling, 0:15:04.960 --> 0:15:08.440 they're fact filling her inadequacies in ways that make her 0:15:08.440 --> 0:15:10.800 stronger than she should be. We cannot let up. 0:15:11.960 --> 0:15:13.280 Senator Mike Leave of Utah. 0:15:13.480 --> 0:15:16.080 As always, you know what you could do a focus 0:15:16.120 --> 0:15:18.600 group at Crown Burger Best, one of the best burgers 0:15:18.600 --> 0:15:21.520 in the country that in and out Burger anyway, we 0:15:21.560 --> 0:15:24.200 appreciate you being with us. Thank you, sir. Eight hundred 0:15:24.280 --> 0:15:26.000 nine four one, Shawn is our number. If you want 0:15:26.040 --> 0:15:36.520 to be a part of the program, the radio show, 0:15:36.640 --> 0:15:39.560 the mainstream media love date. 0:15:40.320 --> 0:15:42.920 This is the Sean Hannity Show. 0:15:43.200 --> 0:15:45.200 All right, we're gonna hit the phones in just a minute, 0:15:45.600 --> 0:15:48.720 but before that, we don't have the ability really on 0:15:48.760 --> 0:15:52.280 this show to pay attention all these congressional races. What 0:15:52.320 --> 0:15:55.320 I have been saying to people is and we have 0:15:55.400 --> 0:15:57.920 paid attention to some of the close Senate races in 0:15:57.960 --> 0:16:02.520 some of the swing states, like watching this guy Hobbdy 0:16:02.680 --> 0:16:06.480 in Wisconsin, he now can take He can win this 0:16:06.600 --> 0:16:10.080 race against Tammy Baldwin. If Donald Trump wins Wisconsin, he 0:16:10.080 --> 0:16:12.760 can win as well, just like Mike Rodgers can win 0:16:13.120 --> 0:16:16.720 in Michigan, just like Bernie Moreno can win in Ohio, 0:16:16.960 --> 0:16:20.000 just like Dave McCormick can win in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. 0:16:20.440 --> 0:16:23.240 And then we've got a shot out in Nevada and 0:16:23.680 --> 0:16:26.520 even New Mexico, as Michae Lee had said. So we're 0:16:26.560 --> 0:16:28.360 watching all of it. And the only thing I would 0:16:28.480 --> 0:16:31.400 remind you is if you're going to vote for Donald 0:16:31.440 --> 0:16:34.560 Trump and you believe that he has the right plan 0:16:34.640 --> 0:16:37.800 for our borders for law and order and safety and security. 0:16:38.200 --> 0:16:41.600 If you believe in his economic plans, which are the 0:16:41.600 --> 0:16:45.640 lower taxes, become the most energy dominant country on the 0:16:45.680 --> 0:16:49.040 face of this earth, and that he would bring more 0:16:49.080 --> 0:16:53.680 peace and stability on the world stage, then you're gonna 0:16:53.760 --> 0:16:56.280 he's gonna need help, and that means in the US 0:16:56.360 --> 0:16:59.120 Senate and the US House of Representatives. One of the 0:16:59.120 --> 0:17:03.720 phenomenons of twenty twenty two, when the red Wave didn't 0:17:03.880 --> 0:17:07.679 really materialize, was the real reason and one of the 0:17:07.680 --> 0:17:12.720 only reasons that Republicans got power in the US House 0:17:12.760 --> 0:17:17.840 of Representatives, although that albeit a very tiny majority, is because, 0:17:17.960 --> 0:17:20.160 believe it or not, of states like New York, Lee 0:17:20.280 --> 0:17:23.040 Zelden did so well at the top of the ticket, 0:17:23.160 --> 0:17:25.919 relatively well for a Republican and in a state that 0:17:25.960 --> 0:17:28.600 has lost a lot of conservatives like me, and a 0:17:28.640 --> 0:17:31.119 lot of Republicans that have said they've had enough with 0:17:31.320 --> 0:17:34.840 burdensome regulation, crime, high taxes, et cetera, and they have 0:17:34.920 --> 0:17:37.400 decided to march with their feet. You see a lot 0:17:37.440 --> 0:17:41.000 of Wall Street companies, private equity firms they're leaving as well. 0:17:41.960 --> 0:17:45.639 Many are going to the Carolinas, Tennessee, Texas. 0:17:45.119 --> 0:17:46.720 Where my pre state of Florida. 0:17:47.960 --> 0:17:52.000 But what happened is all these Republicans got elected in 0:17:52.080 --> 0:17:55.360 states like California and New York, and it made a difference. 0:17:55.520 --> 0:17:58.919 One of those races happened to be in the fourth 0:17:59.040 --> 0:18:02.879 House district in New and right now it is a 0:18:02.880 --> 0:18:06.840 poll from Gotham Polling and Analytics, and it shows, for example, 0:18:07.280 --> 0:18:09.919 that this race is a dead heat. Now in the Senate, 0:18:10.080 --> 0:18:12.440 I don't have any doubts that Republicans will probably take 0:18:12.480 --> 0:18:14.840 control of the US Senate. The question is by how 0:18:14.880 --> 0:18:21.480 big a margin. I mean, if we can win Pennsylvania, Ohio, Wisconsin, Michigan, Nevada, 0:18:22.080 --> 0:18:25.480 and maybe New Mexico, who knows. I mean, it could 0:18:25.520 --> 0:18:27.359 be a game changer. They'd be able to get a 0:18:27.359 --> 0:18:30.160 lot done. And if they can get a bigger majority 0:18:30.200 --> 0:18:33.000 in the House, you know, and win it in part 0:18:33.040 --> 0:18:35.320 the way they want it last time, except maybe now 0:18:35.400 --> 0:18:38.119 the demagoguing of abortion that went on in twenty twenty 0:18:38.160 --> 0:18:41.440 two is not as effective as it's now. People understand. 0:18:41.520 --> 0:18:44.600 It's sent back to the states that I think Republicans 0:18:44.600 --> 0:18:47.560 will do better this time is my hope. And again 0:18:47.760 --> 0:18:50.560 I'm not making predictions. You have to assume that your 0:18:50.640 --> 0:18:53.320 vote is going to decide every race, and that's my 0:18:53.480 --> 0:18:57.400 I'm urging people to take nothing for granted. But one 0:18:57.400 --> 0:19:00.360 of those races that mattered and helped the Republicans get 0:19:00.400 --> 0:19:03.760 control was in the fourth District of New York and 0:19:03.840 --> 0:19:07.000 it's a contentious battle that's going on right now. As 0:19:07.040 --> 0:19:10.800 I said, it's a one point race and Republican Anthony 0:19:11.240 --> 0:19:16.320 Esposito is in the lead or for a Democrat Laura Gillen, 0:19:17.040 --> 0:19:20.479 And anyway, it looks like, you know, certainly a toss up, 0:19:20.520 --> 0:19:22.440 but this is going to be an important hold seat. 0:19:23.000 --> 0:19:26.200 And considering it was my own stopping grounds in Long Island, 0:19:26.200 --> 0:19:28.239 I forgot to give a quick shout out to this 0:19:28.400 --> 0:19:34.880 race and Congressman Desposito. All right, let's talk about your opponent. 0:19:35.040 --> 0:19:37.160 How extreme and radical is your opponent? 0:19:37.280 --> 0:19:38.719 Oh, Sean, thanks for having me. 0:19:39.200 --> 0:19:41.920 My opponent has the first time she ran for office 0:19:41.920 --> 0:19:43.760 as a supervisor of the Towannaheim st that she ran 0:19:43.800 --> 0:19:46.359 into the Working Families Party. Obviously, they've called for the 0:19:46.359 --> 0:19:50.000 outright defunding of police. She supports Kamala Harris and all 0:19:50.040 --> 0:19:52.960 the disastrous policies that they've put in place over the 0:19:53.080 --> 0:19:55.879 last you know, three and a half years and what 0:19:55.920 --> 0:19:59.439 we've seen in New York. Laura Gillan donated through her 0:19:59.440 --> 0:20:02.080 campaign hundreds of thousands of dollars to the architects of 0:20:02.119 --> 0:20:04.720 Castleist bail and criminal justice reform, whether it be Cuomo 0:20:04.840 --> 0:20:08.160 Hocal or Todd Kaminski. So she's as far left as. 0:20:08.040 --> 0:20:08.680 There going to come. 0:20:08.760 --> 0:20:10.840 She's bad for Long Island, she's bad for New York, 0:20:10.840 --> 0:20:12.600 and she's certainly bad for the United States. 0:20:12.800 --> 0:20:15.640 I know maybe many people think although Donald Trump says 0:20:15.680 --> 0:20:17.040 he's going to make him play for New York and 0:20:17.080 --> 0:20:19.080 New Jersey, I hope he does. A New Hampshire now 0:20:19.160 --> 0:20:22.400 is a three point race, and Virginia is tightened significantly. 0:20:23.280 --> 0:20:26.520 My question to you is, explain exactly where your district 0:20:26.560 --> 0:20:27.760 is in Long Island. 0:20:28.119 --> 0:20:30.600 So my district is the southwest corner of Long Island, 0:20:30.640 --> 0:20:33.600 which runs from the city line, the Queen's Border, which 0:20:33.600 --> 0:20:35.920 is where Ubs Arena is, where the Islanders play out 0:20:35.960 --> 0:20:38.960 to Seaford in Wanta, from Old Country Road down to 0:20:39.000 --> 0:20:41.840 the beaches. And it's a district that Joe Biden won 0:20:41.880 --> 0:20:45.159 in twenty twenty by sixteen and a half points. Democrats 0:20:45.160 --> 0:20:48.240 held the congressional seat there for over twenty five years 0:20:48.359 --> 0:20:50.399 and in twenty twenty two we were able to flip it. 0:20:50.600 --> 0:20:52.800 And you know Nasal County politics pretty well, and you 0:20:52.840 --> 0:20:56.760 know that Republicans control all four county wide seats. We 0:20:56.800 --> 0:21:01.280 controlled three towns in two cities, and the pendulum is 0:21:01.280 --> 0:21:04.640 certainly swinging. And I believe that in a district where 0:21:04.680 --> 0:21:08.679 there's seventy thousand more Democrats than Republicans, in a district 0:21:08.720 --> 0:21:11.159 where Joe Biden won by sixteen and a half points, 0:21:11.720 --> 0:21:13.320 when people say it's going to be a tough race, 0:21:13.359 --> 0:21:15.280 it should be a tough race because it's a tough district. 0:21:15.280 --> 0:21:17.760 But I think when we see President Trump, and I 0:21:17.800 --> 0:21:21.480 haven't seen one poll that has President Trump less than 0:21:21.520 --> 0:21:24.560 even that tells a very important story of where this 0:21:24.680 --> 0:21:25.720 district is headed well. 0:21:25.800 --> 0:21:28.520 And Nassau County, which is a big part of your district, 0:21:28.600 --> 0:21:32.800 run by Bruce Blakeman, has done a really good job 0:21:33.040 --> 0:21:38.240 of putting governance back on Nassau County, where I formerly lived. 0:21:38.960 --> 0:21:42.400 And I think this is an important race for New York. 0:21:42.680 --> 0:21:46.159 And so what's your what's your closing message to the 0:21:46.200 --> 0:21:47.520 people in your district. 0:21:48.240 --> 0:21:51.200 I think that it's important to show what I've done 0:21:51.200 --> 0:21:52.600 over the last year and a half part of the 0:21:52.600 --> 0:21:56.400 Homeland Security Committee, the Transportation Infrastructure Committee. We put HR two, 0:21:56.440 --> 0:21:59.320 the Security borerackt in place, and obviously it's sat on 0:21:59.320 --> 0:22:01.760 Truck Schumer's as because the Democrats don't want to secure 0:22:01.800 --> 0:22:04.800 the border. I've brought, working with Bruce Blakeman and others, 0:22:04.800 --> 0:22:08.240 over thirty million dollars back to the district for infrastructure 0:22:08.280 --> 0:22:13.080 projects and community community projects, and I've been accessible out 0:22:13.119 --> 0:22:15.360 there talking to the voters. I've been a staunch advocate 0:22:15.400 --> 0:22:17.600 and supporter of Israel, and as you know, a big 0:22:17.640 --> 0:22:19.960 part of the district is the Orthodox Jews, which very 0:22:20.000 --> 0:22:22.320 often are not part of the polls that are done. 0:22:22.359 --> 0:22:25.000 So while I'm going to always run like I'm ten 0:22:25.040 --> 0:22:27.679 points behind, I'm confident and election night we're going to 0:22:27.680 --> 0:22:29.440 see a big victory. We're going to hold the seats 0:22:29.440 --> 0:22:31.680 that we have in New York and maybe even add 0:22:31.760 --> 0:22:32.200 one or two. 0:22:33.080 --> 0:22:33.240 Oh. 0:22:33.320 --> 0:22:36.320 This is a race of Republicans want to widen their majority. 0:22:36.840 --> 0:22:41.040
