During every single day of 12 00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:13,400 Speaker 3: the Trump administration, I will very simply put America first. 13 00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:19,319 Speaker 3: Our sovereignty will be reclaimed, our safety will be restored, 14 00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:25,680 Speaker 3: the scales of justice will be rebalanced.

America will 18 00:01:56,880 --> 00:02:03,960 Speaker 3: soon be greater, stronger, and far more exceptional than ever before. 19 00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:08,799 Speaker 3: I returned to the presidency confident and optimistic that we 20 00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:11,520 Speaker 3: are at the start of a thrilling new era of 21 00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:16,240 Speaker 3: national success. A tide of change is sweeping the country. 22 00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:20,519 Speaker 3: Sunlight is pouring over the entire world, and America has 23 00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:25,040 Speaker 3: the chance to seize this opportunity like never before. From 24 00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:31,000 Speaker 3: this moment on, America's decline is over, and we will 25 00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:36,760 Speaker 3: immediately restore the integrity, competency, and loyalty of America's government. 26 00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:39,800 Speaker 3: Over the past eight years, I have been tested and 27 00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:42,639 Speaker 3: challenged more than any president in our two hundred and 28 00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:45,240 Speaker 3: fifty year history, and I've. 29 00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:46,880 Speaker 2: Learned a lot along the way. 30 00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:52,280 Speaker 3: The journey to reclaim our republic has not been an 31 00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:55,440 Speaker 3: easy one, that I can tell you. Those who wish 32 00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:59,520 Speaker 3: to stop our cause have tried to take my freedom 33 00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:04,680 Speaker 3: and indeed to take my life just a few months 34 00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:08,720 Speaker 3: ago in a beautiful Pennsylvania field and assassin's bullet ripped. 35 00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:09,560 Speaker 2: Through my ear. 36 00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:14,280 Speaker 3: But I felt then and believe even more so now, 37 00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:18,400 Speaker 3: that my life was saved for a reason. I was 38 00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:22,160 Speaker 3: saved by God to make America great again. 39 00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:56,280 Speaker 5: If I start trying to give you traffic advice, I'll 40 00:03:56,320 --> 00:04:00,240 Speaker 5: screw everything up. We've got a fantastic traffic department. Last 41 00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:02,360 Speaker 5: thing I want to do is step on their toes 42 00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:05,560 Speaker 5: and contradict something in somebody who trusts my opinion on 43 00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:09,920 Speaker 5: other things. Lord knows what values my opinion above theirs, 44 00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:13,160 Speaker 5: or takes my advice and then you're stuck in traffic 45 00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:16,919 Speaker 5: you wouldn't have had to been. But we'll have sky 46 00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:19,080 Speaker 5: Mike on the show here shortly. Who I think is 47 00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:20,720 Speaker 5: the best. I think he's the best in the radio 48 00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:24,120 Speaker 5: traffic business right now. I would he might be the 49 00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:26,800 Speaker 5: best in all the traffic business, but I have to 50 00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:31,520 Speaker 5: give that title to Jennifer Reina. Now I'm not watching 51 00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:34,600 Speaker 5: Jennifer Raina for traffic news. I figure if I need 52 00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:37,360 Speaker 5: traffic news, I get it from sky Mike. But no offense. 53 00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:40,000 Speaker 5: But you know I got there's two hispanics, and one 54 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:42,640 Speaker 5: of them I'm really really wanting to get traffic news from. 55 00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:48,719 Speaker 5: That's sky Mike, and one of them smoke show. Yeah, yeah, 56 00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:52,719 Speaker 5: that's causing the backup right there, Jennifer Raina, Yeah, it's 57 00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:58,719 Speaker 5: exactly right. Anyway, forty five North and forty five South, 58 00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:05,520 Speaker 5: I am told my listeners is an absolute mess. Forty 59 00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:11,479 Speaker 5: five North at forty five North at what did I see? 60 00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:14,480 Speaker 2: Was it cavalcade? I think there was a rollover. 61 00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:19,680 Speaker 5: I spoke to a police officer who was en route 62 00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:24,520 Speaker 5: and did not have all the details, but it sounds 63 00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:34,040 Speaker 5: like it's a mess. And at airline inbound there is 64 00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:37,359 Speaker 5: apparently a jackknife. So don't trust your traffic advice to me. 65 00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:40,680 Speaker 5: I will be holding forth on college football in just 66 00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:43,320 Speaker 5: a moment. Don't hold your don't don't trust your traffic 67 00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:47,599 Speaker 5: advice to me, but stay tuned to Skott Mike and 68 00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:51,159 Speaker 5: the traffic and if you are scheduled to be on 69 00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:55,800 Speaker 5: I forty five. As bad as it normally is, my 70 00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:58,839 Speaker 5: understanding is it's far worse and it's not going to 71 00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:03,120 Speaker 5: be any better any time soon. On the issue of traffic, 72 00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:07,400 Speaker 5: I'm so impressed with the guys at Republic Boot Company. 73 00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:10,800 Speaker 5: They have built something that is very, very, very impressive. 74 00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:14,600 Speaker 5: And I think I told you this other day.

There was the Martin Luther 171 00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:46,240 Speaker 5: King Junior Parade Foundation or whatever, which was Ovid duncan 172 00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:51,160 Speaker 5: Tell's money pot, and then there was the Black Heritage Association. 173 00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:53,960 Speaker 5: Somebody woke up and said, oh, I won't in on this. 174 00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:56,800 Speaker 5: I want to shame them white people into giving me 175 00:11:56,880 --> 00:11:59,960 Speaker 5: money for my parade so that Quanta Alex doesn't protest them. 176 00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:03,120 Speaker 2: It was Black Lives Matter before Black Lives Matter. 177 00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:09,800 Speaker 5: So used to there were two parades one after the other, 178 00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:11,559 Speaker 5: and they would be a battle over who got to 179 00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:13,760 Speaker 5: go first, because the first one would get bigger attendance, 180 00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:16,079 Speaker 5: and the first one would drag ass. It was like 181 00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:19,400 Speaker 5: the Clinton administration when they were leaving office and George W. 182 00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:22,200 Speaker 5: Bush came in and they destroyed it.
