1
00:00:01,040 --> 00:00:05,960
Speaker 1: Well, we all witness darkness during that rally in Pennsylvania

2
00:00:06,120 --> 00:00:11,080
Speaker 1: with the assassination attempt of President Trump. But in that darkness,

3
00:00:11,400 --> 00:00:15,840
Speaker 1: there was also light seeing President Trump take a bullet

4
00:00:15,880 --> 00:00:18,680
Speaker 1: and his instinct was to stand up, put his fist

5
00:00:18,800 --> 00:00:21,160
Speaker 1: in the air and let America know that we're going

6
00:00:21,200 --> 00:00:23,600
Speaker 1: to be okay, that he was going to be okay,

7
00:00:23,640 --> 00:00:26,680
Speaker 1: that this country was going to be okay. And then

8
00:00:26,720 --> 00:00:32,440
Speaker 1: to have the crowd behind him of patriotic Americans chant USA,

9
00:00:33,240 --> 00:00:36,960
Speaker 1: not knowing if more bullets would be incoming. We have

10
00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:39,560
Speaker 1: a lot of conversations on this podcast, you know, a

11
00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:42,559
Speaker 1: lot of times they could be a little depressing, but

12
00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:44,600
Speaker 1: they're honest. You know, we're talking about the state of

13
00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:48,080
Speaker 1: the country. It's not been good, especially under the current president.

14
00:00:48,320 --> 00:00:50,760
Speaker 1: But in that moment, in that dark moment, in that

15
00:00:50,960 --> 00:00:53,159
Speaker 1: historical moment that we will remember for the rest of

16
00:00:53,200 --> 00:00:58,280
Speaker 1: our lives, there's also a strange element of hopefulness, Hopefulness

17
00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:00,520
Speaker 1: for the future of the country, Hopefulness we can turn

18
00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:03,639
Speaker 1: the ship around, hopeful inness that patriotism, that that American

19
00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:06,040
Speaker 1: spirit is still alive and well in America.

20
00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:07,880
Speaker 2: And we saw that in President Trump.

21
00:01:07,959 --> 00:01:10,240
Speaker 1: And I do believe that God protected him that day

22
00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:12,000
Speaker 1: because he is the leader that we need at this

23
00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:14,800
Speaker 1: time in history. There's no one else that can withstand

24
00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:17,319
Speaker 1: what this man has been put through. And so in

25
00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:20,480
Speaker 1: that dark time, in that day that we will remember

26
00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:22,240
Speaker 1: for the rest of our lives, there is also great

27
00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:25,080
Speaker 1: hope for the future of this country. And that's coming

28
00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:27,679
Speaker 1: from someone who you know, we have these conversations that

29
00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:30,840
Speaker 1: can be really depressing. I do believe that he will

30
00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:33,000
Speaker 1: turn this ship around, that we can turn the ship

31
00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:34,960
Speaker 1: around and in America can be a country we can

32
00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:37,280
Speaker 1: be proud of again. So what I want to do

33
00:01:37,440 --> 00:01:40,639
Speaker 1: with today's episode is I want to talk.

34
00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:41,520
Speaker 2: To Sean Parnell.

35
00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:44,080
Speaker 1: He was there that night, he was a speaker, He

36
00:01:44,160 --> 00:01:46,800
Speaker 1: spoke to the President before President Trump went out there

37
00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:50,880
Speaker 1: before the assassination attempt. And he's also an American hero.

38
00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:53,240
Speaker 1: I mean, this is a guy who was part of

39
00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:56,120
Speaker 1: the Outlaw Platoon, who has put his life on the

40
00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:59,040
Speaker 1: line for this country. Who's American hero. I mean he's

41
00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:02,559
Speaker 1: received two Bronze Stars and a Purple Heart. A former

42
00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:06,200
Speaker 1: US Army Airborne ranger, his instincts were on display too.

43
00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:09,160
Speaker 1: I mean, his first reaction was it was to protect

44
00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:12,079
Speaker 1: his wife. And also to help the people around him.

45
00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:15,520
Speaker 1: So who better to turn to than him to talk

46
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:18,280
Speaker 1: about what happened at the rally, what it means for

47
00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:22,400
Speaker 1: the country, what it says, by the way, about President Trump,

48
00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:24,840
Speaker 1: to be that resilient, to be that strong, to be

49
00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:26,880
Speaker 1: the leader that we need at a time where America

50
00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:29,440
Speaker 1: is weak, to show us that strength. I mean, his

51
00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:32,040
Speaker 1: first instinct to get up, to put his fist in there,

52
00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:34,680
Speaker 1: to say fight, sending the message that he's unbreakable, that

53
00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:37,680
Speaker 1: America is unbreakable, that the American spirit is unbreakable.

54
00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:39,000
Speaker 2: So we're gonna turn to.

55
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:41,720
Speaker 1: Sean to just tell us what happened and what this

56
00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:44,560
Speaker 1: means for the future of the country. So stay tuned

57
00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:47,960
Speaker 1: for this really important conversation with a patriot, a great

58
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:50,960
Speaker 1: American who showed us that the day of the rally,

59
00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:59,240
Speaker 1: and what this all means for America. Well, Sean, it's

60
00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:02,080
Speaker 1: you know, it's great to have you on the podcast,

61
00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:06,680
Speaker 1: but the circumstances of this conversation are pretty surreal. You

62
00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:12,040
Speaker 1: were there at the rally, witnessed everything that happened. First

63
00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:13,760
Speaker 1: of all, I'm just so glad that you and your

64
00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:17,960
Speaker 1: wife are okay, that you guys are safe. I guess

65
00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:20,160
Speaker 1: you know, you've had a couple of days to kind

66
00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:22,320
Speaker 1: of digest what happened.

67
00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:23,960
Speaker 2: You know, how are you doing.

68
00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:29,440
Speaker 3: I'm doing good, you know, I'm fine. I am very

69
00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:34,440
Speaker 3: very sad for obviously the state of our country and

70
00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:37,720
Speaker 3: that something like that could even happen. I'm more sad

71
00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:41,280
Speaker 3: for the people who showed up at the rally and

72
00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:46,360
Speaker 3: one lost their life to suffering from a horrific injury

73
00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:50,040
Speaker 3: just because they, you know, loved their country and wanted

74
00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:53,240
Speaker 3: to be involved in the political process and wanted to

75
00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:57,440
Speaker 3: come out and support their candidate. Those people, their lives

76
00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:02,200
Speaker 3: are forever changed because of this evil scumbag who decided

77
00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:03,400
Speaker 3: to show up at the rally.

78
00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:03,840
Speaker 4: And do what he did.

79
00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:07,040
Speaker 3: And and my heart, I mean I've been thinking about

80
00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:09,160
Speaker 3: them for two days now. My heart goes out to

81
00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:14,800
Speaker 3: those families because they're really they're really in it right now, Lisa,

82
00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:19,000
Speaker 3: they're really struggling, and he sure as hell didn't deserve

83
00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:19,440
Speaker 3: what happened.

84
00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:23,400
Speaker 1: I know, I can't imagine. You know, I've been to CHURPLI.

85
00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:28,000
Speaker 1: You obviously have your you're you're speaking at it, and

86
00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:31,599
Speaker 1: you know it's it's like nothing you know, you've ever

87
00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:34,560
Speaker 1: experienced before. First of all, the people are so lovely,

88
00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:37,160
Speaker 1: you know, as you mentioned, they love their country, you

89
00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:40,520
Speaker 1: love President Trump, and you know, you just go to

90
00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:43,240
Speaker 1: an event like that today, excited ahead of the election,

91
00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:48,760
Speaker 1: excited to support Trump, and then just something just evil

92
00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:56,200
Speaker 1: and dark and uh, unthinkable happens. Yes, So take us

93
00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:59,560
Speaker 1: through what you saw that day. So, so you were

94
00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:02,200
Speaker 1: a speaker, a guest, you saw President Trump before the

95
00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:05,840
Speaker 1: assassination attempt, I guess kind of it. Walk us through

96
00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:08,880
Speaker 1: a little bit about sort of how those events unfolded.

97
00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:10,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, for sure.

98
00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:12,559
Speaker 3: And let me let me address something that you said

99
00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:15,920
Speaker 3: before about the people at that rally. The people at

100
00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:20,120
Speaker 3: Trump rallies the media would have you believe. And look,

101
00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:23,800
Speaker 3: I don't care about I'm I'm I'm tired. I'm just

102
00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:27,200
Speaker 3: gonna just be upfront with you, Lisa, like I am

103
00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:29,840
Speaker 3: not going to both side this issue. I'm tired of

104
00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:33,359
Speaker 3: the Republican I'm tired of Republicans doing that. The media

105
00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:36,359
Speaker 3: and these in these Democrats in Congress had a hand

106
00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:39,760
Speaker 3: in this. Their rhetoric since Trump came down the escalator,

107
00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:44,200
Speaker 3: since twenty sixteen, has been completely ridiculous. It's not just

108
00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:46,960
Speaker 3: saying things in the campaign trail, but you know you haven't.

109
00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:50,000
Speaker 3: They sit there and they pushed fake nonsense on this

110
00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:53,159
Speaker 3: country about how Trump was an illegitimate president, how he

111
00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:56,839
Speaker 3: was a Russian agent. Now this whole Trump is Hitler narrative,

112
00:05:57,160 --> 00:05:59,920
Speaker 3: And every time you turn on MSNBC, it's like our

113
00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:03,000
Speaker 3: or Trump selected, our two hundred and seventy year American

114
00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:07,240
Speaker 3: experiment will end. And so their people hear that, their

115
00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:10,440
Speaker 3: people believe that, and it leads to things like Steve Scalisee.

116
00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:12,880
Speaker 3: It leads to things like Rand Paul being attacked at

117
00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:15,680
Speaker 3: as home, it leads to something like that happened at

118
00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:18,719
Speaker 3: the rally. And I'm tired of it because every single

119
00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:22,560
Speaker 3: time some psychopath leftist tries to attack a Republican and

120
00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:25,520
Speaker 3: god forbid, somebody gets hurt or in worst case scenario,

121
00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:29,360
Speaker 3: killed everyone. And on the left it's like, oh, we need,

122
00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:31,400
Speaker 3: we need to come together in unite in the cooling

123
00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:35,880
Speaker 3: of the rhetoric. Now I'm sorry, like, I'm absolutely tired

124
00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:38,280
Speaker 3: of that. They need to police what's happening in their

125
00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:40,760
Speaker 3: own in their own party, in their own house, and

126
00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:43,640
Speaker 3: do some real soul searching because the path that they

127
00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:46,440
Speaker 3: are taking this country on right now is not a

128
00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:48,720
Speaker 3: good one, and it led to what happened at the rally.

129
00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:51,200
Speaker 3: First of all, the people at the Trump rally are

130
00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:54,040
Speaker 3: the best of America, and the media would have you believe,

131
00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:57,479
Speaker 3: and I've heard them say it time and time and again, Lisa,

132
00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:02,680
Speaker 3: that people at the Trump ra valley or xenophobes, they're racists,

133
00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:07,920
Speaker 3: their scumbags. Nothing could be further from the truth. They're

134
00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:11,920
Speaker 3: the kindest, most patriotic people, most selfless people that you

135
00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:14,800
Speaker 3: could ever meet in your life. They're the best of America.

136
00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:18,360
Speaker 3: And they showcased it that day. You know, they helped

137
00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:22,120
Speaker 3: each other that day. And so I have to say

138
00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:25,600
Speaker 3: that just makes me so like media and these Democrats

139
00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:26,840
Speaker 3: make me so frustrated.

140
00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:30,160
Speaker 4: But the rally.

141
00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:32,760
Speaker 3: So I've been to five Trump rallies, Lisa, and I've

142
00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:35,720
Speaker 3: been on stage with him every single one of those times,

143
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:39,840
Speaker 3: and as you know, they're just an experience or like

144
00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:44,280
Speaker 3: a patriotic rock concert. And I showed up at the

145
00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:49,320
Speaker 3: rally that day and it was just different, and I

146
00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:51,680
Speaker 3: mean that it was just something in the air. It

147
00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:55,360
Speaker 3: just felt different. You know, I'm doing my thing at

148
00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:57,400
Speaker 3: the rally, I'm going through and I'm meeting people who

149
00:07:57,440 --> 00:08:01,760
Speaker 3: supported me on two campaigns in Pennsylvania and there again

150
00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:04,600
Speaker 3: just amazing people. And I get up on stage and

151
00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:06,680
Speaker 3: I speak, and I'm like looking out over the crowd

152
00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:10,600
Speaker 3: of what had to be i mean conservative estimate of

153
00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:13,120
Speaker 3: twenty five thousand and thirty thousand people, just to see

154
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:18,600
Speaker 3: if people. And as I'm talking, I start to feel

155
00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:23,040
Speaker 3: this like surreal sense of like it's just it's just

156
00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:26,000
Speaker 3: a feeling that just something was different. As I'm speaking,

157
00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:29,320
Speaker 3: and as I've had time to think about this over

158
00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:33,839
Speaker 3: the past couple of days, it felt exactly like, you know,

159
00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:36,319
Speaker 3: I had this near death experience in Afghanistan where I

160
00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:40,040
Speaker 3: got blowed up by this r RPG and fractured my skull,

161
00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:42,360
Speaker 3: although I didn't know it at the time, and I

162
00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:45,400
Speaker 3: was like kind of in this unconscious state, but I

163
00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:48,160
Speaker 3: thought like I was dead, but maybe I wasn't. And

164
00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:51,199
Speaker 3: I felt this presence just kind of pushing me back

165
00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:54,560
Speaker 3: to consciousness. And I'm telling you, I've struggled with my

166
00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:56,560
Speaker 3: faith my whole life. You know, I've always been a

167
00:08:56,559 --> 00:08:58,920
Speaker 3: believer or Catholic. I'm you know, go to church and

168
00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:03,160
Speaker 3: stuff like that, but know you struggle with your faith,

169
00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:05,920
Speaker 3: you go back and forth and you see things you

170
00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:08,280
Speaker 3: know that humanity does, and you're like, how could something

171
00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:11,120
Speaker 3: like God, something like this allow this to happen, you know.

172
00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:14,040
Speaker 3: So I've been back and forth with it, but since

173
00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:18,160
Speaker 3: that near death experience in Afghanistan, I've just believed that

174
00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:20,920
Speaker 3: there is something else out there. And I'm telling you, Lisa,

175
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:22,840
Speaker 3: I swear to God, and people are going to listen

176
00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:24,880
Speaker 3: to this and think I'm crazy or blow me off

177
00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:27,960
Speaker 3: or whatever. I felt the same damn thing on that

178
00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:33,280
Speaker 3: stage and after the rally, you know, people were sending

179
00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:35,760
Speaker 3: me stuff, just getting inundated with pictures of me on

180
00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:38,760
Speaker 3: the stage speaking and the wind had taken the flag

181
00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:43,000
Speaker 3: and blown it into It looked like an eagle, It

182
00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:45,640
Speaker 3: looked like an angel. Some people said it looked like

183
00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:49,080
Speaker 3: Christ on the Cross. It affected people in the crowd

184
00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:51,480
Speaker 3: that day, and it wasn't just So my point is,

185
00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:53,920
Speaker 3: it wasn't just me feeling like something was different in

186
00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:57,600
Speaker 3: the air or something was and other people felt it too,

187
00:09:57,679 --> 00:10:00,920
Speaker 3: and so they I met with Trump after I spoke

188
00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:05,160
Speaker 3: spent some time with him, and Trump comes out. They

189
00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:08,560
Speaker 3: had the flag off fixed by then, and he comes out,

190
00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:11,080
Speaker 3: like walks out in his little ramp points at Melanie

191
00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:13,200
Speaker 3: and I and he walks to the stage and he

192
00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:16,200
Speaker 3: starts to talk, and we are if you're looking at

193
00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:20,680
Speaker 3: the podium, Lisa, on the television, we are directly to

194
00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:23,480
Speaker 3: the president's left. So in the front row on the

195
00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:28,560
Speaker 3: left is where my wife and I were, and probably

196
00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:32,160
Speaker 3: twenty twenty five feet away, if I had to guess.

197
00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:35,880
Speaker 3: And the President like is doing his thing. Crowd's going wild,

198
00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:40,000
Speaker 3: and he says, oh, you know what, I'm gonna go

199
00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:43,160
Speaker 3: off script. You know you mind if I go off script,

200
00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:45,640
Speaker 3: And the crowd's like laughing him, and he's like, I

201
00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:48,560
Speaker 3: tell my staff I hate these teleprompters. They're boring. And

202
00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:50,880
Speaker 3: then he's like, do you have my favorite graphic, my

203
00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:52,160
Speaker 3: immigration graphic?

204
00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:52,760
Speaker 4: Does my team?

205
00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:53,280
Speaker 3: Do my team?

206
00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:53,840
Speaker 4: Do you have it?

207
00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:57,880
Speaker 3: And so they pop this immigration graphic up on the screen, Lisa,

208
00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:01,439
Speaker 3: and you know, he's got those two greens behind him,

209
00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:04,800
Speaker 3: and he cranes his head to look at it once

210
00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:07,160
Speaker 3: and he addressed, Hell, you see that arrow right there.

211
00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:10,000
Speaker 3: That was when immigration was at its lowest point. I'm

212
00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:12,360
Speaker 3: proud of that arrow. And the crowd is like laughing,

213
00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:16,000
Speaker 3: and he turns around to address the crowd and talk

214
00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:19,680
Speaker 3: a little bit more and then the second time, he

215
00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:23,480
Speaker 3: turns his head and cranes it kind of cran turns

216
00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:26,240
Speaker 3: his head and ducks down a little bit to point

217
00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:30,720
Speaker 3: back at the graphic. And I swear to god, it

218
00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:34,080
Speaker 3: was at that exact moment there were five or six

219
00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:39,440
Speaker 3: shots that rang out. I heard the bullets right over

220
00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:41,760
Speaker 3: top of our position. I mean I could hear them crack.

221
00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:44,360
Speaker 3: I mean could hear them crack through the air, which

222
00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:48,120
Speaker 3: means I knew how close they were. And all I

223
00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:53,120
Speaker 3: saw was the President grab his ear and just go

224
00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:56,079
Speaker 3: right into the prone and then the Secret Service was

225
00:11:56,120 --> 00:12:00,760
Speaker 3: on him a second later. And I have to say,

226
00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:05,200
Speaker 3: if looking back, I didn't know at the time his

227
00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:09,640
Speaker 3: condition at that specific moment, but if he did not

228
00:12:10,040 --> 00:12:12,880
Speaker 3: go off script like he has a tendency to do,

229
00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:16,240
Speaker 3: I guarantee you he would not be with us too well.

230
00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:21,520
Speaker 1: And we all witnessed his instincts to get right back

231
00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:24,360
Speaker 1: up to pump his fist, to tell the crowd that

232
00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:27,120
Speaker 1: he's okay, to tell the country he's okay, and then

233
00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:33,840
Speaker 1: the crowd chanting behind him, USA, I I don't even

234
00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:37,320
Speaker 1: know how I mean, you know, you know, because you

235
00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:40,960
Speaker 1: have that kind of courage. But I think just as

236
00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:45,160
Speaker 1: a normal American watching this go down, it was weird

237
00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:49,160
Speaker 1: because you know, obviously, you know, you're thinking, I can't

238
00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:52,040
Speaker 1: even believe that, you know, Trump almost got assassinated, but

239
00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:53,920
Speaker 1: at the same time, being like so proud of him

240
00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:56,640
Speaker 1: in a weird way, you know, of just like this

241
00:12:56,720 --> 00:12:58,679
Speaker 1: is our guy, you know, like this, this is what

242
00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:01,839
Speaker 1: we need, especially at a time where we've just experienced

243
00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:05,560
Speaker 1: such weakness and and such, you know, hatred for America

244
00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:09,319
Speaker 1: with Joe Biden and this administration and the left, And

245
00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:11,760
Speaker 1: it was kind of this weird feeling of just being

246
00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:14,440
Speaker 1: proud of him and you know, you proud of the

247
00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:17,600
Speaker 1: country and that you know, maybe maybe we can turn

248
00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:18,600
Speaker 1: this ship around.

249
00:13:19,679 --> 00:13:24,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, I Lisa, I couldn't agree with you more because

250
00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:33,080
Speaker 3: I have seen grown men in combat freeze with training

251
00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:36,080
Speaker 3: when bullets start flying, and that just is a common thing.

252
00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:39,440
Speaker 3: So you never really know how you're going to react

253
00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:45,480
Speaker 3: when that happens. And the moment was extraordinary. It was unprecedented,

254
00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:48,040
Speaker 3: and in this case, it was an ambush. It was

255
00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:51,400
Speaker 3: a surprise, right, So it's not like it's it's a

256
00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:53,559
Speaker 3: wholly different thing when you go into combat and you're

257
00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:55,520
Speaker 3: doing a movement to contact, and you know you're going

258
00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:56,280
Speaker 3: to be under fire.

259
00:13:56,400 --> 00:13:59,960
Speaker 1: He doesn't know there's that burns, more bullets weren't coming.

260
00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:01,160
Speaker 2: How do you know that?

261
00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:05,679
Speaker 4: Yeah, exactly, that's exactly right. And I didn't.

262
00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:08,200
Speaker 3: Again, like I processed a lot of this stuff in

263
00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:14,280
Speaker 3: retrospect watching his reaction after the fact. But he rose

264
00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:19,680
Speaker 3: to the moment, and what he demonstrated was leadership because

265
00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:24,080
Speaker 3: people needed to see him rise to that moment and

266
00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:27,880
Speaker 3: see that he was okay now in the moment, like

267
00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:32,720
Speaker 3: I didn't. I immediately knew that it was sniper fire.

268
00:14:32,960 --> 00:14:35,000
Speaker 3: And I've had so many people ask me, well, why

269
00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:39,680
Speaker 3: did people just stand around? Well, because people thought initially

270
00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:42,760
Speaker 3: for the first several seconds, othery're just fireworks, And I'm like,

271
00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:46,920
Speaker 3: they are not fireworks. This is sniper fire. Everybody needs

272
00:14:46,960 --> 00:14:50,200
Speaker 3: to get down and get down now. And I had

273
00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:53,520
Speaker 3: my wife flat on the ground and the prone I

274
00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:55,080
Speaker 3: don't even remember doing it, but I just had her

275
00:14:55,120 --> 00:15:00,520
Speaker 3: on the ground, It's like instantly, and she kind of

276
00:15:00,560 --> 00:15:03,240
Speaker 3: looked at me. And I will never forget this. I've

277
00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:05,400
Speaker 3: been in many many firefights and this is certainly a

278
00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:07,960
Speaker 3: one sided one because nobody was on in the rally,

279
00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:10,440
Speaker 3: but she looked at me, and I don't want to

280
00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:12,560
Speaker 3: say that she was scared, but I mean she has

281
00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:14,760
Speaker 3: these like bright blue eyes, and her eyes were just

282
00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:20,200
Speaker 3: so wide open, and I'm thinking, Okay, how do I,

283
00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:24,560
Speaker 3: you know, protect my wife and get her to safety

284
00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:28,640
Speaker 3: and also help these people, because you know, I knew

285
00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:30,760
Speaker 3: that the Secret Service had their mission and they were

286
00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:33,680
Speaker 3: already moving with the president and as all as all

287
00:15:33,680 --> 00:15:36,800
Speaker 3: of this was going on, Like when something like this happens, Lisa,

288
00:15:37,640 --> 00:15:39,600
Speaker 3: like if you get caught in an ambush and combat

289
00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:44,200
Speaker 3: or god forbid, something like this, the moment kind of

290
00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:47,760
Speaker 3: if you've looked through a kaleidoscope and turned it put

291
00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:50,320
Speaker 3: yourself in the middle of that kaleidoscope, That's kind of

292
00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:52,960
Speaker 3: how it is. Like it just everything kind of evolves

293
00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:55,760
Speaker 3: around you and happens all at the same time. So

294
00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:59,080
Speaker 3: as I talk it through, like it seems like I'm

295
00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:01,400
Speaker 3: getting like a list of things that happened, but really

296
00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:03,960
Speaker 3: a lot of this was happening at once, and so

297
00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:04,720
Speaker 3: I turned.

298
00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:06,880
Speaker 1: All the other That's also like I imagine for you,

299
00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:09,480
Speaker 1: you know, if you're you're at war, you're you're expecting

300
00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:11,960
Speaker 1: that these things could you know, you're you're you're sort

301
00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:14,240
Speaker 1: of you're I would imagine, you know, you're you're on edge,

302
00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:16,680
Speaker 1: You're you're you know, you're you're prepared right mentally, like

303
00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:19,680
Speaker 1: you're you're in a war zone. And so it's like

304
00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:22,800
Speaker 1: to what you're saying, you're just attending a rally. I mean,

305
00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:25,520
Speaker 1: no one in a millionaires would think something like this

306
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:27,040
Speaker 1: went down, would go down.

307
00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:31,280
Speaker 3: You know, could I I have to say, you know,

308
00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:34,120
Speaker 3: part of you know, the blessing and the curse of

309
00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:37,880
Speaker 3: being you know, combat veteran is that that the experience

310
00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:43,680
Speaker 3: itself never really leaves you. And so you know, everywhere

311
00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:47,080
Speaker 3: I go and this is just like you know, it's

312
00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:51,240
Speaker 3: been kind of burned into my DNA as a as

313
00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:55,360
Speaker 3: a soldiers, like everywhere I go, like I assessed the

314
00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:58,480
Speaker 3: situation and there are times where, believe me, my family

315
00:16:58,520 --> 00:16:59,440
Speaker 3: gets annoyed by that.

316
00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:01,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, carry good, you know.

317
00:17:03,680 --> 00:17:06,639
Speaker 3: And you know, when I walked into that rally, I

318
00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:09,400
Speaker 3: immediately noticed the police presence. I immediately knew that there

319
00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:12,240
Speaker 3: was one entrance and one exit. I immediately knew that

320
00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:14,879
Speaker 3: there were two counter sniper teams. I immediately knew and

321
00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:18,160
Speaker 3: recognized the water tower in the building directly behind where

322
00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:20,639
Speaker 3: we were. So you're kind of always scanning for threats.

323
00:17:20,640 --> 00:17:22,960
Speaker 3: So yeah, you're right, like it was totally not expecting

324
00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:25,639
Speaker 3: that to happen at a rally, because of course I wasn't,

325
00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:30,560
Speaker 3: But in some way, instinctively, it's just how you're how

326
00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:34,240
Speaker 3: I'm wired now, you know. And it's not just me,

327
00:17:34,440 --> 00:17:39,560
Speaker 3: but probably any combat veteran that's been through through war

328
00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:42,760
Speaker 3: it's probably all wired the same way.

329
00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:45,040
Speaker 1: And I just want to read something for the audience

330
00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:49,480
Speaker 1: real quick about something your wife tweeted about you. She

331
00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:52,640
Speaker 1: said that Sean Parnell doesn't talk about his time in war,

332
00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:54,600
Speaker 1: but tonight I got to see a glimpse of what

333
00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:57,920
Speaker 1: he was like as a combat leader. He kept people

334
00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:00,440
Speaker 1: calm and had them take cover, carried people to the

335
00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:04,200
Speaker 1: medic tent, got people moving and evacuated, pushed many people

336
00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:05,480
Speaker 1: wheelchairs to safety.

337
00:18:05,960 --> 00:18:06,720
Speaker 2: After you got me.

338
00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:08,560
Speaker 1: Secured in the car, he went back in to help

339
00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:10,600
Speaker 1: more people. He's a hero and I'm so proud of him.

340
00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:12,919
Speaker 1: So just for the audience to know about what you

341
00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:16,119
Speaker 1: were doing when this all unfolded.

342
00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:20,119
Speaker 3: Well, you know, it's it's I didn't know she was

343
00:18:20,160 --> 00:18:23,720
Speaker 3: going to put that out there, but it's a privilege

344
00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:26,679
Speaker 3: to have the love and appreciation of your spouse and

345
00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:30,399
Speaker 3: your wife, you know, and I feel that way. But

346
00:18:31,359 --> 00:18:34,520
Speaker 3: you know, Lisa, the Secret Service had their mission, and

347
00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:36,800
Speaker 3: the cops did too. You know, they were tracking the

348
00:18:36,840 --> 00:18:40,000
Speaker 3: shooter and some of the cops, you know, they were

349
00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:42,600
Speaker 3: spread very thin, and some of the cops were helping

350
00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:45,600
Speaker 3: them with the kazavak of the casualties. Because the way

351
00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:48,880
Speaker 3: it happened, Lisa's you had five or six shots ring

352
00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:51,919
Speaker 3: out right, and like I want to explain this for people,

353
00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:55,720
Speaker 3: five or six shots ring out at the president. President

354
00:18:55,800 --> 00:18:59,880
Speaker 3: grabs his ear and goes down. Secret Service are on him.

355
00:19:00,040 --> 00:19:04,719
Speaker 3: Two or three seconds passed counter sniper teams engage and

356
00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:08,840
Speaker 3: you just heard this thump thump, different sound, heavier caliber

357
00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:12,560
Speaker 3: rifle than what the origin than the and then almost

358
00:19:12,600 --> 00:19:15,760
Speaker 3: instantly there were three more shots which impacted the crowd

359
00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:18,840
Speaker 3: right behind us. And so I think what happened was

360
00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:22,480
Speaker 3: the snipers engaged at the exact moment that the shooter

361
00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:27,080
Speaker 3: was re engaging, but the snipers hit him as he

362
00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:29,960
Speaker 3: was shooting, which caused his rounds to go off target

363
00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:33,240
Speaker 3: and hit people behind us and kill one man and

364
00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:39,879
Speaker 3: wound seriously another. And so cops were kind of trying

365
00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:42,600
Speaker 3: to help with that, and we were trying to get

366
00:19:42,640 --> 00:19:45,439
Speaker 3: to the casualties because there was there was people. I mean,

367
00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:46,960
Speaker 3: it's just you know, you've been to a Trump rally,

368
00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:51,800
Speaker 3: you're just packed in there. But there were there were

369
00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:56,360
Speaker 3: thirty plus thousand people, many of whom, the vast majority

370
00:19:56,359 --> 00:19:58,800
Speaker 3: of which were just experiencing getting shot at for the

371
00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:03,280
Speaker 3: first time. And when that happens, Lisa, everybody has this,

372
00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:09,640
Speaker 3: everybody goes through a similar evolution and that's like, holy cow,

373
00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:15,399
Speaker 3: somebody just tried to kill me. And this person doesn't

374
00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:17,800
Speaker 3: even know me, but like, oh my gosh, I could

375
00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:21,520
Speaker 3: have died. And I knew that probably thirty five thousand

376
00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:25,680
Speaker 3: people were experiencing something like that, and what the hell

377
00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:28,440
Speaker 3: do you do with them? Where do they go? Because

378
00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:32,399
Speaker 3: there was no there was no real crowd control. And

379
00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:36,639
Speaker 3: then you add to that, Lisa, that it was ninety

380
00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:40,679
Speaker 3: five degrees out and you had a lot of people

381
00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:45,960
Speaker 3: sitting out in the sun all day long. They were

382
00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:50,040
Speaker 3: they drinking enough water? Probably not, And so these people

383
00:20:50,119 --> 00:20:56,280
Speaker 3: all experienced something highly traumatic and they just started passing

384
00:20:56,280 --> 00:20:59,440
Speaker 3: out and falling out from heat exhaustion. So all of

385
00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:01,320
Speaker 3: a sudden, you had people who were shot that we

386
00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:04,280
Speaker 3: were trying to evacuate and trying to treat and try

387
00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:06,160
Speaker 3: to get a METAVAC bird in to get the mouth.

388
00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:09,320
Speaker 3: Then you had heat casuals going down one by one,

389
00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:12,600
Speaker 3: and so we had to move those people to the

390
00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:17,240
Speaker 3: to the to the metavac tent because if we didn't,

391
00:21:17,240 --> 00:21:17,760
Speaker 3: who would.

392
00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:18,800
Speaker 4: So I was just.

393
00:21:18,760 --> 00:21:23,399
Speaker 3: Doing my part to help. And then once it was

394
00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:25,760
Speaker 3: about like when the shooting, like in the midst of

395
00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:29,600
Speaker 3: the shooting, Lisa I was trying to figure out where

396
00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:34,119
Speaker 3: the shots were coming from, because that's really important. When

397
00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:36,680
Speaker 3: you're under sniper fire and you don't know the location

398
00:21:36,800 --> 00:21:40,080
Speaker 3: of the shooter, you have to figure out One, is

399
00:21:40,119 --> 00:21:43,080
Speaker 3: it possible to move people? Because if it is, you

400
00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:45,399
Speaker 3: don't want to ever be pinned down. So if you

401
00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:48,679
Speaker 3: can move, you need to move. But two is it

402
00:21:48,720 --> 00:21:51,080
Speaker 3: even possible? And and how are you going to use

403
00:21:51,119 --> 00:21:52,920
Speaker 3: cover and concealment to evacuate people?

404
00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:53,360
Speaker 4: Yeah?

405
00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:55,840
Speaker 2: How do you protect yourself right where it's coming from?

406
00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:59,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly. And immediately Lisa I was like water tower

407
00:21:59,880 --> 00:22:03,080
Speaker 3: or building. But then I checked myself and I was like, well,

408
00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:05,280
Speaker 3: there's no way that's possible. The Secret Service would have

409
00:22:05,359 --> 00:22:06,120
Speaker 3: that on lockdown.

410
00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:08,480
Speaker 1: But they did got to take a quick commercial break

411
00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:14,800
Speaker 1: more on what happened on that tragic day before we

412
00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:18,600
Speaker 1: get into the security failures and how this could even happen.

413
00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:23,920
Speaker 1: What does it say about President Trump? And because when

414
00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:26,440
Speaker 1: you're reacting like that, I mean, this isn't something that's

415
00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:28,600
Speaker 1: been thought out, you know what I mean, Like, this

416
00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:31,639
Speaker 1: isn't a premeditated response. Like that is just who he.

417
00:22:31,760 --> 00:22:34,159
Speaker 1: I mean, he's a warrior, you know, to just for

418
00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:37,879
Speaker 1: your immediate instinct to just get back up and show

419
00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:40,840
Speaker 1: strength and to basically send the message like you you

420
00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:44,320
Speaker 1: can't break me, you know, you can't break America, and

421
00:22:44,359 --> 00:22:46,520
Speaker 1: then for the crowd to have that same instinct to

422
00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:51,760
Speaker 1: just chant USA. I mean, what does that say about

423
00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:55,920
Speaker 1: President Trump just as a leader and a man, for

424
00:22:56,119 --> 00:23:00,200
Speaker 1: his immediate response, without thinking, to just get back up

425
00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:03,520
Speaker 1: up and show strength and resiliency and to be unbreakable.

426
00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:04,239
Speaker 4: You know.

427
00:23:05,359 --> 00:23:09,199
Speaker 3: I think in that moment, you know, he knew the

428
00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:12,919
Speaker 3: moment was really even though it was his life that

429
00:23:13,080 --> 00:23:16,199
Speaker 3: was almost taken, he knew that that moment was not

430
00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:20,560
Speaker 3: about him, that he was just sort of the pinnacle

431
00:23:20,680 --> 00:23:23,560
Speaker 3: or the zenith of what was a very large movement

432
00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:30,000
Speaker 3: behind him. And I think in that moment, he recognized

433
00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:31,800
Speaker 3: that not only did he rise to the moment of

434
00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:37,560
Speaker 3: being shot at, but he also showed himself to the

435
00:23:37,640 --> 00:23:41,760
Speaker 3: crowd to be the leader that they all desperately needed

436
00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:45,800
Speaker 3: him to be. And not just them, but the country.

437
00:23:46,160 --> 00:23:48,840
Speaker 3: This country has been hurting for three years. It's a

438
00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:52,360
Speaker 3: completely void of leadership at the top. America is desperate

439
00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:54,560
Speaker 3: for leadership. And I think the world saw it too

440
00:23:55,480 --> 00:24:00,800
Speaker 3: and needed to see it. And it just shows, you know,

441
00:24:00,880 --> 00:24:04,200
Speaker 3: with all of the stuff, Lisa, that this man has

442
00:24:04,240 --> 00:24:08,840
Speaker 3: been put through unjustly so by the way, whether I

443
00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:11,640
Speaker 3: mean just think about everything that they've done to this guy,

444
00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:14,480
Speaker 3: the Russia collusion hoax. I mean, I know that these

445
00:24:14,480 --> 00:24:18,320
Speaker 3: things have become like kind of like cliche, not cliche,

446
00:24:18,440 --> 00:24:22,080
Speaker 3: but just like almost catchphrases. But these are real things

447
00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:24,359
Speaker 3: that this man and his family and his children and

448
00:24:24,359 --> 00:24:27,000
Speaker 3: his grandchildren have been put through. The Trumps are people too.

449
00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:30,440
Speaker 3: Sometimes we forget that really.

450
00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:33,800
Speaker 1: Good people too, yes, likely good like Eric and Don,

451
00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:35,960
Speaker 1: like they're just I don't know Banka as well, but

452
00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:38,119
Speaker 1: Eric and but I've heard lovely things about her. But

453
00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:41,240
Speaker 1: you know, Eric and Don Junior, every interaction of like

454
00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:44,280
Speaker 1: they're just lar Trump's a lovely like they're just like

455
00:24:44,440 --> 00:24:48,120
Speaker 1: good loving people who are kind to others, who care

456
00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:51,080
Speaker 1: about their like love their families like they're good people.

457
00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:54,959
Speaker 3: I am so glad that you said that, because it

458
00:24:55,080 --> 00:24:58,080
Speaker 3: is so true, and you have Adam Scheff on the

459
00:24:58,119 --> 00:25:01,400
Speaker 3: House floor saying Don Junior is guilty treason. And I mean,

460
00:25:01,440 --> 00:25:05,840
Speaker 3: they love this country, yeah right, they love this country

461
00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:08,679
Speaker 3: and what the media does to them on a daily

462
00:25:08,720 --> 00:25:11,879
Speaker 3: basis is just horrific. And then all the you know,

463
00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:14,639
Speaker 3: the trial in New York, all the stuff is fake

464
00:25:15,359 --> 00:25:16,959
Speaker 3: novel legal theory.

465
00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:17,399
Speaker 4: Bs.

466
00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:21,720
Speaker 3: That's that's failing, by the way, now, you know, And

467
00:25:21,760 --> 00:25:29,520
Speaker 3: I'm glad, but I can't imagine anyone in the world,

468
00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:33,359
Speaker 3: and I mean this sincerely that would have the wherewithal

469
00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:35,919
Speaker 3: to go through what he went through and continue to

470
00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:39,959
Speaker 3: fight and then have an assassination attempt on him almost

471
00:25:40,119 --> 00:25:44,919
Speaker 3: loses his life in twelve freaking hours later. The man's

472
00:25:44,960 --> 00:25:47,840
Speaker 3: typing on all caps unite. We need to come together,

473
00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:51,639
Speaker 3: you know. I mean that I'm telling you is leadership

474
00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:54,960
Speaker 3: and the country just desperately needs that. And I would

475
00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:58,160
Speaker 3: also say this, we were operating under the assumption, Lisa,

476
00:25:58,200 --> 00:26:01,080
Speaker 3: that there were two shooters because there were two pieces

477
00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:05,600
Speaker 3: of construction machinery behind President Trump to the right of him.

478
00:26:05,640 --> 00:26:08,399
Speaker 3: As you look on the TV as those shots, the

479
00:26:08,520 --> 00:26:12,720
Speaker 3: first salvo of bullets ripped over our head. They severed

480
00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:15,800
Speaker 3: a hydraulic line on the construction vehicle to the next

481
00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:18,480
Speaker 3: of him. So we thought that there might be two shooters,

482
00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:19,560
Speaker 3: and they had Trump.

483
00:26:19,560 --> 00:26:21,520
Speaker 4: They were engaging Trump from multiple sides.

484
00:26:21,920 --> 00:26:26,200
Speaker 3: So the crowd after the first several seconds and Trump

485
00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:30,920
Speaker 3: pumps his fist, they knew that their lives were at risk.

486
00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:36,679
Speaker 3: They didn't stampede, they didn't panic, they didn't hurt people.

487
00:26:37,440 --> 00:26:41,400
Speaker 3: It wasn't, you know, all about themselves. They stayed there.

488
00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:43,639
Speaker 3: And what does that say about them?

489
00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:44,080
Speaker 4: You know?

490
00:26:44,080 --> 00:26:46,840
Speaker 3: So you had Trump showing himself to the crowd and

491
00:26:47,119 --> 00:26:48,879
Speaker 3: being the leader that the world needed him to be

492
00:26:48,920 --> 00:26:50,679
Speaker 3: and that the country needed him to be. And then

493
00:26:50,720 --> 00:26:55,480
Speaker 3: you had the crowd as well, doing exactly what right

494
00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:59,240
Speaker 3: looked like in that moment. And it's something that will

495
00:26:59,240 --> 00:27:01,760
Speaker 3: stay with me my whole life.

496
00:27:02,119 --> 00:27:02,280
Speaker 4: You know.

497
00:27:02,280 --> 00:27:05,520
Speaker 3: It gives me faith in America to see people react

498
00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:08,919
Speaker 3: like that. Well, and that's yeah, no, no, it's just

499
00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:09,760
Speaker 3: that's that's it.

500
00:27:09,840 --> 00:27:10,240
Speaker 4: That's it.

501
00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:12,359
Speaker 1: I was gonna say, it was kind of inarticulate and

502
00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:16,240
Speaker 1: trying to explain that earlier, you know, but because it's

503
00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:19,359
Speaker 1: just so strange to have so much hope in a

504
00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:22,679
Speaker 1: moment like that, you know, in such a dark historical period.

505
00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:25,360
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, these sorts of assassination attempts, There's

506
00:27:25,359 --> 00:27:28,440
Speaker 1: only been a handful of them throughout American history, So

507
00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:31,439
Speaker 1: I mean, this is such a rare and uh, you know,

508
00:27:31,920 --> 00:27:34,359
Speaker 1: evil thing to take place, but it but there was

509
00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:36,879
Speaker 1: a weird, you know, hopefulness and to to what you

510
00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:39,360
Speaker 1: were saying of you know, I mean we've been through

511
00:27:39,400 --> 00:27:41,880
Speaker 1: a lot as a country, and I don't think anyone's been,

512
00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:45,280
Speaker 1: you know, through more than what they've put Donald Trump through,

513
00:27:45,320 --> 00:27:49,720
Speaker 1: President Trump through, and uh he he just comes back stronger.

514
00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:51,960
Speaker 1: I just it's it's almost like inhuman like, I don't

515
00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:54,080
Speaker 1: even know how anyone I would not be able to

516
00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:58,600
Speaker 1: endure a fraction of what he has been through. And

517
00:27:58,760 --> 00:28:00,879
Speaker 1: I really do that believe that, like God put his

518
00:28:00,960 --> 00:28:02,879
Speaker 1: hand on him and protected him, because he is the

519
00:28:02,960 --> 00:28:05,439
Speaker 1: leader that we need in this moment of time in

520
00:28:05,440 --> 00:28:07,600
Speaker 1: American history, but just in the world as well.

521
00:28:07,680 --> 00:28:08,520
Speaker 2: I Mean, the world is a.

522
00:28:08,480 --> 00:28:12,480
Speaker 1: Mess right now and we need a leader of that strength,

523
00:28:12,480 --> 00:28:14,560
Speaker 1: that caliber, and there's no one else but him for

524
00:28:14,600 --> 00:28:16,840
Speaker 1: this job. And I do believe that God protected him

525
00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:19,640
Speaker 1: that day. It is strange to have hope in such

526
00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:21,080
Speaker 1: a dark way. It's like it that's why I'm like,

527
00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:24,720
Speaker 1: it's hard to explain, but you know you more articularly

528
00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:25,520
Speaker 1: explained it than me.

529
00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:30,000
Speaker 3: No, right though, Lisa, You're right, and I agree, I

530
00:28:30,080 --> 00:28:36,359
Speaker 3: agree that you know Trump he is the he is

531
00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:40,840
Speaker 3: the man that was meant to be in this moment,

532
00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:44,520
Speaker 3: and it's just hard. Yet you know, I'm not being

533
00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:49,920
Speaker 3: you know, hyperbolic here. And you know, the human spirit

534
00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:55,960
Speaker 3: reveals itself at times of great duress, and this was

535
00:28:55,960 --> 00:29:01,200
Speaker 3: one of those times. And the American people, in President Trump,

536
00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:03,960
Speaker 3: the American people with that rally, the people of Pennsylvania,

537
00:29:03,960 --> 00:29:07,440
Speaker 3: they rose to the moment for sure. And really what

538
00:29:07,480 --> 00:29:11,720
Speaker 3: it was was a showcase of, you know, the triumph

539
00:29:11,800 --> 00:29:16,360
Speaker 3: of the human spirit in that moment. And because millimeter

540
00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:20,840
Speaker 3: to the right, Trump doesn't turn his head, it's just

541
00:29:20,880 --> 00:29:23,160
Speaker 3: like he's not here with us today.

542
00:29:24,080 --> 00:29:24,280
Speaker 4: You know.

543
00:29:24,480 --> 00:29:27,040
Speaker 3: It's just when I say I felt something different at

544
00:29:27,040 --> 00:29:31,320
Speaker 3: that rally. Something was there, Lisa, something was there. I

545
00:29:31,360 --> 00:29:34,360
Speaker 3: don't care people call me crazy, whatever, something was there.

546
00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:39,320
Speaker 3: And although I will also say this, like I feel

547
00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:44,240
Speaker 3: stupid saying that because I imagine that the children and spouses

548
00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:46,720
Speaker 3: of those who were wounded and killed it probably don't

549
00:29:46,760 --> 00:29:50,920
Speaker 3: feel that way. Yeah, you know, and my heart aches

550
00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:54,280
Speaker 3: for them. I can't even you know, it's just absolutely

551
00:29:54,360 --> 00:29:56,880
Speaker 3: horrific what they had to with, what they had to endure,

552
00:29:56,920 --> 00:29:57,880
Speaker 3: and what they're enduring.

553
00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:01,800
Speaker 1: And I guess, you know, we're still don't have all

554
00:30:01,840 --> 00:30:06,120
Speaker 1: the answers, you know, the FBI, you know, they're allegedly

555
00:30:06,160 --> 00:30:07,520
Speaker 1: investigating into all of this.

556
00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:10,800
Speaker 4: Well we'll see, yeah, right.

557
00:30:10,920 --> 00:30:13,880
Speaker 1: You know, I want to have faith and that, but

558
00:30:14,040 --> 00:30:16,880
Speaker 1: it's you know, it's difficult given what they've done to

559
00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:20,360
Speaker 1: this resident and what they put them through and the

560
00:30:20,400 --> 00:30:21,360
Speaker 1: lies we've been told.

561
00:30:21,960 --> 00:30:27,680
Speaker 2: But how the hell does something like this happen? Yeah,

562
00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:28,480
Speaker 2: how the hell?

563
00:30:31,440 --> 00:30:35,040
Speaker 3: It's it's absolutely it's the word that keeps coming to

564
00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:37,240
Speaker 3: my mind is just incomprehensible.

565
00:30:37,680 --> 00:30:39,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, because.

566
00:30:40,520 --> 00:30:43,320
Speaker 3: The building, you know, when people say like I was

567
00:30:43,320 --> 00:30:45,600
Speaker 3: one hundred and thirty yard one hundred and thirty meters away,

568
00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:50,120
Speaker 3: you know, first of all, like the building was right

569
00:30:50,160 --> 00:30:52,880
Speaker 3: behind us, one hundred and thirty one hundred and thirty

570
00:30:52,920 --> 00:30:55,640
Speaker 3: meters is not far Now, if you look at the

571
00:30:55,680 --> 00:30:57,560
Speaker 3: aerial footage of it, you think, well, that's kind of

572
00:30:57,560 --> 00:30:58,040
Speaker 3: far away.

573
00:30:58,800 --> 00:31:01,640
Speaker 4: It's not it. It was right there.

574
00:31:02,040 --> 00:31:05,680
Speaker 3: And you know, people are sending me pictures right because

575
00:31:05,760 --> 00:31:11,880
Speaker 3: you know, after the fact, and you can see Trump

576
00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:17,520
Speaker 3: walking out on his little walkway and him oriented directly

577
00:31:17,560 --> 00:31:21,520
Speaker 3: to you know, where Melanie and I were standing right

578
00:31:21,520 --> 00:31:23,680
Speaker 3: there on the front row as he walked out, right

579
00:31:23,880 --> 00:31:27,960
Speaker 3: over our heads is this building. And then to the

580
00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:32,040
Speaker 3: right of the building is this water tower. So if

581
00:31:32,080 --> 00:31:34,760
Speaker 3: I knew in the heat of the moment that the

582
00:31:34,800 --> 00:31:37,959
Speaker 3: sniper that the shots were being fired from either the

583
00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:41,480
Speaker 3: water tower or the building, then the United States Secret

584
00:31:41,560 --> 00:31:45,760
Speaker 3: Service had to know, because of course they did. And

585
00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:48,960
Speaker 3: you know, now as information starts to trickle out, we're

586
00:31:49,040 --> 00:31:53,000
Speaker 3: learning that people knew the shooter was there for a

587
00:31:53,040 --> 00:31:58,280
Speaker 3: full thirty minutes thereabouts prior to the shooting. The crowd

588
00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:03,360
Speaker 3: was reacting to him. The sniper teams, you know, whether

589
00:32:03,400 --> 00:32:05,400
Speaker 3: they were tied in with the Secret Service, they weren't

590
00:32:05,400 --> 00:32:08,880
Speaker 3: Secret Service themselves. They were likely local like swat teams

591
00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:10,840
Speaker 3: or that were tied in with the Secret Service. And

592
00:32:10,920 --> 00:32:13,880
Speaker 3: least of the assumption is is it secret Service they

593
00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:16,520
Speaker 3: come in they tie in with local swat teams because

594
00:32:16,560 --> 00:32:19,280
Speaker 3: they know the terrain and they know the terrain in

595
00:32:19,320 --> 00:32:21,360
Speaker 3: their area better than the FEDS would, Right, So that's

596
00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:24,400
Speaker 3: kind of the philosophy behind it. But now I come

597
00:32:24,400 --> 00:32:27,719
Speaker 3: to find out that swat team guys, you know, it

598
00:32:27,760 --> 00:32:30,040
Speaker 3: was a sniper staging point, and there were there were

599
00:32:30,080 --> 00:32:32,600
Speaker 3: guys in the building while the shooters on top of it,

600
00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:37,240
Speaker 3: and you know, I like, I got theories about this,

601
00:32:37,600 --> 00:32:40,800
Speaker 3: and and again I don't know if any of this

602
00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:45,760
Speaker 3: is true, but I gotta believe that I checked myself

603
00:32:45,800 --> 00:32:46,280
Speaker 3: in the moment.

604
00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:47,120
Speaker 4: No, there's no way.

605
00:32:47,160 --> 00:32:49,160
Speaker 3: Hey, the Secret Service has to have the water tower,

606
00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:52,200
Speaker 3: has to have the building, got to have those on lockdown,

607
00:32:52,320 --> 00:32:52,760
Speaker 3: the shooters.

608
00:32:52,920 --> 00:32:55,880
Speaker 1: Just while that in the moment, in the midst of

609
00:32:55,920 --> 00:32:59,800
Speaker 1: the chaos, that was something you know, have you been like,

610
00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:01,160
Speaker 1: there's no way that that could you know?

611
00:33:01,360 --> 00:33:01,840
Speaker 4: Like that?

612
00:33:01,960 --> 00:33:03,200
Speaker 2: I just think that says a lot.

613
00:33:03,560 --> 00:33:06,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's no way. I mean, listen, you don't have

614
00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:08,760
Speaker 3: to be general patent to know that secure the water tower,

615
00:33:08,800 --> 00:33:11,320
Speaker 3: secure that building. You would be a private and basic

616
00:33:11,360 --> 00:33:13,959
Speaker 3: training for five weeks to know secure the building, secure

617
00:33:13,960 --> 00:33:17,800
Speaker 3: the water tower. I'm telling you, like anybody, you could

618
00:33:17,800 --> 00:33:19,840
Speaker 3: be a civilian and think like, well, jeez, if we're

619
00:33:19,840 --> 00:33:21,560
Speaker 3: gonna do a rally here, got to have somebody on

620
00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:25,560
Speaker 3: that rooftop like one hundred. It's just that's why I'm

621
00:33:25,560 --> 00:33:28,160
Speaker 3: saying it's incomprehensible to me. And so if you look

622
00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:31,680
Speaker 3: at the tactical footage of the counter sniper team, they're

623
00:33:31,720 --> 00:33:34,720
Speaker 3: on the rifle right, good cheek to stock position on

624
00:33:34,760 --> 00:33:37,160
Speaker 3: the rifle, eyes looking in the scope.

625
00:33:37,280 --> 00:33:39,240
Speaker 4: He he takes a step.

626
00:33:38,960 --> 00:33:41,880
Speaker 3: Back right and he takes he moves his head back

627
00:33:41,920 --> 00:33:46,040
Speaker 3: from the uh, from the scope, kind of like what

628
00:33:46,040 --> 00:33:51,600
Speaker 3: what's that? And then lines up and engages. I think then,

629
00:33:51,800 --> 00:33:53,960
Speaker 3: I think those guys, I can't put myself on their head.

630
00:33:54,000 --> 00:33:57,200
Speaker 3: So I'm just speculating. But if that was a staging

631
00:33:57,280 --> 00:34:00,840
Speaker 3: point for snipers and there were supposed to be you know,

632
00:34:00,840 --> 00:34:03,400
Speaker 3: that buildings supposed to be occupied, maybe there's supposed to

633
00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:06,840
Speaker 3: be snipers on it. Maybe the sniper's thinking is that

634
00:34:06,920 --> 00:34:10,400
Speaker 3: a friendly and that hesitation While it was only a

635
00:34:10,440 --> 00:34:13,840
Speaker 3: couple of seconds, very a couple of seconds. A couple

636
00:34:13,840 --> 00:34:18,360
Speaker 3: of seconds is an eternity in a combat situation, an eternity,

637
00:34:18,840 --> 00:34:22,160
Speaker 3: and so I think that they maybe thought that it

638
00:34:22,280 --> 00:34:24,600
Speaker 3: was a friendly and that God forbid, they didn't want

639
00:34:24,600 --> 00:34:26,840
Speaker 3: to engage a friendly And then then it became obvious

640
00:34:26,880 --> 00:34:29,040
Speaker 3: after a second or so that it wasn't.

641
00:34:29,239 --> 00:34:31,280
Speaker 4: But if you're.

642
00:34:31,200 --> 00:34:34,759
Speaker 1: If you're met, still wouldn't excuse why he was able

643
00:34:34,760 --> 00:34:35,399
Speaker 1: to get up there?

644
00:34:35,520 --> 00:34:35,920
Speaker 4: Correct?

645
00:34:36,040 --> 00:34:38,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I mean, look, if people were like, hey,

646
00:34:38,480 --> 00:34:40,160
Speaker 3: there's a guy up there. There's a man up there

647
00:34:40,160 --> 00:34:42,719
Speaker 3: with a rifle, and so you have cops out there,

648
00:34:44,120 --> 00:34:46,359
Speaker 3: I mean one of the cops like climbed up the ladder.

649
00:34:46,400 --> 00:34:48,440
Speaker 3: And again, I don't know how all of this went down.

650
00:34:48,480 --> 00:34:50,719
Speaker 3: I'm sure we'll learn in the coming weeks. But your

651
00:34:50,800 --> 00:34:53,040
Speaker 3: cop climbs up the ladder, guy has a rifle pointed

652
00:34:53,080 --> 00:34:55,280
Speaker 3: at him. Well, yeah, you're kind of in a compromise situation.

653
00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:57,799
Speaker 3: You can't engage like that, so he jumps down. But

654
00:34:57,840 --> 00:34:59,800
Speaker 3: my thought is a couple of things. You got a

655
00:34:59,800 --> 00:35:02,600
Speaker 3: free making radio. Why aren't you calling to the sniper

656
00:35:02,640 --> 00:35:06,160
Speaker 3: team and to your tactical operation center. Have the sniper

657
00:35:06,160 --> 00:35:08,440
Speaker 3: team look at the guy, get a what they call

658
00:35:08,480 --> 00:35:11,600
Speaker 3: intelligence Surveillance and Reconnaissance i s r drone in the

659
00:35:11,640 --> 00:35:13,840
Speaker 3: sky to look at the sky. Why wasn't an i

660
00:35:14,160 --> 00:35:16,520
Speaker 3: r drone in the sky to begin with, those things.

661
00:35:16,560 --> 00:35:18,759
Speaker 3: I mean, it's not like you have a helicopter that's

662
00:35:19,080 --> 00:35:21,280
Speaker 3: up in the air, which, by the way, that should

663
00:35:21,320 --> 00:35:23,400
Speaker 3: have been in the air as well. I mean, I

664
00:35:23,560 --> 00:35:28,160
Speaker 3: don't understand. There's so many things, there are so many

665
00:35:28,200 --> 00:35:32,719
Speaker 3: things that happened that are that just make no sense.

666
00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:35,919
Speaker 3: I heard Corey Mills talking in an interview with Jesse

667
00:35:36,040 --> 00:35:38,520
Speaker 3: Waters on Fox just in I was, you know, I

668
00:35:38,520 --> 00:35:40,360
Speaker 3: had it. I was watching him on on X or

669
00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:43,640
Speaker 3: something like that, and he said, you know, Corey Mills

670
00:35:43,640 --> 00:35:45,520
Speaker 3: is a is a former sniper, and he's like, it's

671
00:35:45,560 --> 00:35:48,120
Speaker 3: just it's I can't believe it. It just makes me

672
00:35:48,160 --> 00:35:50,120
Speaker 3: feel like it was deliberate. And I'm not saying that

673
00:35:50,160 --> 00:35:57,440
Speaker 3: it was deliberate because incompetence goes. It's sometimes just incompetence

674
00:35:57,560 --> 00:36:01,000
Speaker 3: is real. But it's just hard to see.

675
00:36:01,120 --> 00:36:01,920
Speaker 4: It's just it's just.

676
00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:04,160
Speaker 2: But but I think our government.

677
00:36:05,840 --> 00:36:10,520
Speaker 1: The reason why anyone would even remotely have the thought of,

678
00:36:11,200 --> 00:36:13,319
Speaker 1: you know, was it delibered or not, or to even

679
00:36:13,480 --> 00:36:16,440
Speaker 1: entertain that even for a second of anyone's time, is

680
00:36:16,560 --> 00:36:20,799
Speaker 1: just because of what we've seen our government do. For

681
00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:23,960
Speaker 1: being honest, you know, you look at the FBI, you know,

682
00:36:24,800 --> 00:36:29,799
Speaker 1: weaponized and internet rumor against you know, President Trump with

683
00:36:29,920 --> 00:36:32,520
Speaker 1: the Russia Gate. Then you know, you have former CIA

684
00:36:32,640 --> 00:36:35,880
Speaker 1: directors and intelligence officers intentionally lie to the American people

685
00:36:36,320 --> 00:36:41,160
Speaker 1: saying Hunter Biden's laptop is Russian disinformation, like former CIA directors, right,

686
00:36:41,239 --> 00:36:44,319
Speaker 1: like people who are at the helm of a you know,

687
00:36:44,400 --> 00:36:49,960
Speaker 1: an incredibly powerful agency who intentionally lied to the American people.

688
00:36:51,760 --> 00:36:55,160
Speaker 1: You know. So it's like, you know, unfortunately, our government

689
00:36:55,200 --> 00:36:59,759
Speaker 1: has given us a reason to doubt its truthfulness and

690
00:36:59,800 --> 00:37:03,360
Speaker 1: to doubt its intention, and to doubt its ability or

691
00:37:03,360 --> 00:37:06,879
Speaker 1: even desire to protect Donald Trump or or President Trump

692
00:37:07,080 --> 00:37:10,319
Speaker 1: or to protect this country. So you know, like they're

693
00:37:10,360 --> 00:37:13,960
Speaker 1: to blame for us for anyone even remotely having that

694
00:37:14,000 --> 00:37:16,360
Speaker 1: thought pop into their head. I could they own that,

695
00:37:16,480 --> 00:37:17,080
Speaker 1: not us?

696
00:37:17,160 --> 00:37:19,600
Speaker 3: I totally agree with you. Yeah, I mean, it's it's

697
00:37:19,680 --> 00:37:25,839
Speaker 3: absolutely the correct assessment. You know, the our institutions, in

698
00:37:25,880 --> 00:37:30,120
Speaker 3: some cases, once venerated institutions have so been weaponized against

699
00:37:30,640 --> 00:37:35,040
Speaker 3: not just Donald Trump but all of his supporters. That yeah,

700
00:37:35,040 --> 00:37:37,520
Speaker 3: it's it stands to reason that we've come to this

701
00:37:37,600 --> 00:37:41,920
Speaker 3: conclusion that like, might this have been deliberate? Like look

702
00:37:41,960 --> 00:37:45,160
Speaker 3: at all these other lies that that were that we

703
00:37:45,239 --> 00:37:48,600
Speaker 3: took seriously at the time, because I'm you know, the

704
00:37:48,719 --> 00:37:51,920
Speaker 3: Russia collusion hoax, for example, like it was a hoax,

705
00:37:52,719 --> 00:37:56,279
Speaker 3: people took it seriously. One hundred percent Swayed controlled the

706
00:37:56,360 --> 00:37:59,520
Speaker 3: US House of Representatives in twenty eighteen. Like that's one

707
00:37:59,600 --> 00:38:05,320
Speaker 3: hundred election interference based on lies pushed by our intelligence community.

708
00:38:05,560 --> 00:38:08,400
Speaker 3: Hunter Biden, laptop, You're so right to point out that

709
00:38:08,480 --> 00:38:11,920
Speaker 3: these were these weren't like foot soldiers signing this letter,

710
00:38:12,400 --> 00:38:17,120
Speaker 3: like these were former directors of the Central Intelligence Agency

711
00:38:17,520 --> 00:38:24,160
Speaker 3: signing this letter. And moreover, there has been no accountability

712
00:38:24,239 --> 00:38:27,320
Speaker 3: for any of these people, none of them, none of

713
00:38:27,360 --> 00:38:30,160
Speaker 3: them going all the way back to Russia, even even

714
00:38:30,200 --> 00:38:33,960
Speaker 3: like hey, yo Komi, like all of these like I

715
00:38:34,040 --> 00:38:37,080
Speaker 3: can't remember the guy who like made the weird face,

716
00:38:37,160 --> 00:38:39,719
Speaker 3: all these FBI agents, they're all like CNN contributors.

717
00:38:39,760 --> 00:38:41,799
Speaker 4: Now I can't remember their names, but like.

718
00:38:42,239 --> 00:38:45,279
Speaker 3: With Lisa Page, and they're like Ted Trump always says

719
00:38:45,320 --> 00:38:46,719
Speaker 3: it's to this guy and her lover.

720
00:38:46,840 --> 00:38:47,600
Speaker 4: I don't remember the hell.

721
00:38:47,640 --> 00:38:52,680
Speaker 3: It doesn't matter, But like these people, there's been no accountability.

722
00:38:52,680 --> 00:38:54,960
Speaker 3: And now even the US Secret Service director, who should

723
00:38:54,960 --> 00:38:59,200
Speaker 3: one hundred percent resign in shame, and that's saying she's

724
00:38:59,200 --> 00:39:01,760
Speaker 3: defying I'm not going to do it. Failure doesn't matter.

725
00:39:01,840 --> 00:39:05,480
Speaker 3: There's zero accountability. And when there's zero accountability and lies

726
00:39:05,560 --> 00:39:09,040
Speaker 3: go on check, people ask questions like this, well, and.

727
00:39:09,000 --> 00:39:09,759
Speaker 2: Why would you have?

728
00:39:09,920 --> 00:39:13,680
Speaker 1: Okay, so I'm five six, right, so President Trump has

729
00:39:13,719 --> 00:39:15,880
Speaker 1: got a lot of height on me, you know, and

730
00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:19,200
Speaker 1: so why, like I was saying, you know some of

731
00:39:19,200 --> 00:39:21,719
Speaker 1: the female Secret Service agents and look, they put their

732
00:39:21,760 --> 00:39:24,320
Speaker 1: bodies in front of President Trump. It yeah, looks like

733
00:39:24,360 --> 00:39:26,000
Speaker 1: they're willing to take a bullet for him. So I

734
00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:28,080
Speaker 1: I you know, that is courage, right, So I'm not

735
00:39:28,160 --> 00:39:30,600
Speaker 1: going to take that away from any of the Secret

736
00:39:30,680 --> 00:39:33,719
Speaker 1: Service agency agents who put their bodies in front of

737
00:39:33,719 --> 00:39:37,719
Speaker 1: the president to protect him. But then his whole top

738
00:39:37,800 --> 00:39:40,440
Speaker 1: of his body was exposed. So it's like, you know,

739
00:39:40,719 --> 00:39:43,080
Speaker 1: I would I would know well enough that I'm not

740
00:39:43,160 --> 00:39:44,960
Speaker 1: going to be able. You know, my body just doesn't

741
00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:47,560
Speaker 1: cover his height. So like that part, to me, it

742
00:39:47,600 --> 00:39:50,800
Speaker 1: doesn't even make sense, Like how is he protected if

743
00:39:51,480 --> 00:39:53,840
Speaker 1: a large part of his head and part of his

744
00:39:53,880 --> 00:39:55,160
Speaker 1: body is exposed because of that?

745
00:39:55,440 --> 00:39:56,640
Speaker 2: That doesn't make any sense to me.

746
00:39:57,200 --> 00:40:00,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, it's it's true. I mean, and you know,

747
00:40:00,880 --> 00:40:04,760
Speaker 3: it's this diversity equity and inclusion stuff when when people

748
00:40:04,800 --> 00:40:06,800
Speaker 3: get out there and say that it puts the mission

749
00:40:06,800 --> 00:40:10,279
Speaker 3: at risk. This is a good example and potentially a

750
00:40:10,320 --> 00:40:14,320
Speaker 3: tragic example of how that happens, and just not being

751
00:40:14,440 --> 00:40:18,680
Speaker 3: able to acknowledge that there are very real physical differences

752
00:40:18,719 --> 00:40:22,000
Speaker 3: between men and women. And that's not a commentary on

753
00:40:22,080 --> 00:40:24,480
Speaker 3: their lack of courage. You're one hundred percent right. They

754
00:40:24,480 --> 00:40:26,680
Speaker 3: were up there on that stage and seconds covering the

755
00:40:26,719 --> 00:40:29,439
Speaker 3: President's body to the extent that they could with their own.

756
00:40:29,680 --> 00:40:34,200
Speaker 3: That shows courage. But there if you can't acknowledge the

757
00:40:34,200 --> 00:40:37,200
Speaker 3: physical differences between men and women, and for God's sake,

758
00:40:37,280 --> 00:40:39,759
Speaker 3: we have Supreme Court justices that don't know what a

759
00:40:39,840 --> 00:40:42,680
Speaker 3: wan And I'm serious, I hate to I'm not trying to,

760
00:40:43,239 --> 00:40:46,960
Speaker 3: you know, take political jabs here. It's the truth to

761
00:40:47,080 --> 00:40:50,279
Speaker 3: not acknowledge that, you know, where the rubber meets the

762
00:40:50,320 --> 00:40:53,160
Speaker 3: road in a tactical situation and lives are on the line.

763
00:40:54,719 --> 00:40:57,680
Speaker 3: People could lose, people can't could lose their life. And

764
00:40:57,880 --> 00:41:01,759
Speaker 3: you almost saw that on Saturday. And you know, and

765
00:41:02,719 --> 00:41:06,520
Speaker 3: regarding the women who were in the Secret Service, you know,

766
00:41:06,880 --> 00:41:11,399
Speaker 3: part of me wonders, is it just poor training? I mean,

767
00:41:11,400 --> 00:41:13,279
Speaker 3: are they getting the training that they need, because I

768
00:41:13,360 --> 00:41:15,520
Speaker 3: know for a fact that the Secret Service right now

769
00:41:15,600 --> 00:41:19,440
Speaker 3: is hurting for recruiting so they can't get people to apply.

770
00:41:20,760 --> 00:41:24,480
Speaker 3: They're drastic recruiting shortages there. Obviously, the RNC is going

771
00:41:24,520 --> 00:41:27,000
Speaker 3: on this week Trump rally, and they got Joe Biden

772
00:41:27,040 --> 00:41:29,840
Speaker 3: gallivanting everywhere with Secret Service. And you know for a

773
00:41:29,920 --> 00:41:33,160
Speaker 3: fact that the Biden administration has thrown up bureaucratic roadblocks

774
00:41:33,480 --> 00:41:36,440
Speaker 3: to prevent Trump from plus and up a security detail.

775
00:41:36,560 --> 00:41:38,919
Speaker 3: Despite what may Arcus is saying. You know that that

776
00:41:38,920 --> 00:41:41,560
Speaker 3: that that Biden is not making it easy. Heard from

777
00:41:41,800 --> 00:41:44,640
Speaker 3: very good sources that there were Department of Homeland Security

778
00:41:44,680 --> 00:41:47,279
Speaker 3: agents who are augmenting the Secret Service that day because

779
00:41:47,280 --> 00:41:50,279
Speaker 3: they did not have enough bodies and they're I'm sure

780
00:41:50,320 --> 00:41:53,600
Speaker 3: those people are very capable, but their missions are very different.

781
00:41:53,800 --> 00:41:58,560
Speaker 3: And all of that stuff rolled into one creates a

782
00:41:58,680 --> 00:42:02,160
Speaker 3: recipe for disaster that you again almost saw play out

783
00:42:02,160 --> 00:42:02,840
Speaker 3: on Saturday.

784
00:42:03,320 --> 00:42:06,480
Speaker 1: Well, and it's it's strange because as much as what

785
00:42:06,640 --> 00:42:09,720
Speaker 1: happened shows shows us, you know, the best of America,

786
00:42:09,760 --> 00:42:11,880
Speaker 1: as we talked about, you know of that we do

787
00:42:11,920 --> 00:42:15,359
Speaker 1: have leaders that have courage and that will stand up

788
00:42:15,440 --> 00:42:18,359
Speaker 1: when times are tough, and that are unbreakable and are

789
00:42:18,400 --> 00:42:19,960
Speaker 1: willing to take a bullet for this country.

790
00:42:20,040 --> 00:42:20,680
Speaker 2: Quite literally.

791
00:42:21,040 --> 00:42:22,800
Speaker 1: You know, people say he doesn't love his country, and

792
00:42:22,880 --> 00:42:24,279
Speaker 1: he just took a bullet for the country and is

793
00:42:24,320 --> 00:42:27,239
Speaker 1: not backing down because he realizes what's at stake here.

794
00:42:27,280 --> 00:42:29,640
Speaker 2: So I mean, you know, that's I don't get I

795
00:42:29,640 --> 00:42:31,680
Speaker 2: don't know how. I don't think you can.

796
00:42:31,640 --> 00:42:34,440
Speaker 1: Have more love for this country, uh than being being

797
00:42:34,480 --> 00:42:36,600
Speaker 1: willing to take a bullet for it, like like you were,

798
00:42:36,719 --> 00:42:39,000
Speaker 1: and like you know President Trump did when he was

799
00:42:39,040 --> 00:42:41,880
Speaker 1: on stage that day. So and then the crowd chanting

800
00:42:41,920 --> 00:42:44,120
Speaker 1: America and love for this country. So you know, we

801
00:42:44,160 --> 00:42:47,399
Speaker 1: saw glimpses of the best of America, but then sort

802
00:42:47,400 --> 00:42:49,640
Speaker 1: of like the environment that we are in, just the

803
00:42:49,640 --> 00:42:52,880
Speaker 1: worst of America too. I mean government and competency, you know,

804
00:42:53,000 --> 00:42:56,080
Speaker 1: DEI that potentially put the president's life at risk or

805
00:42:56,160 --> 00:42:58,600
Speaker 1: or you know, maybe worse right, but people having that

806
00:42:58,719 --> 00:43:01,439
Speaker 1: doubt because of the r government has told us, because

807
00:43:01,480 --> 00:43:04,359
Speaker 1: of the incompetency of these agents, and then to have

808
00:43:04,440 --> 00:43:07,560
Speaker 1: a current president and the lead up of this say

809
00:43:07,600 --> 00:43:10,200
Speaker 1: it's time to put Trump in a bullseye. Absolutely so,

810
00:43:10,280 --> 00:43:13,359
Speaker 1: just the negligence of some of our leaders, the incompetency

811
00:43:13,400 --> 00:43:15,640
Speaker 1: of some of our leaders, the hatefulness of some of

812
00:43:15,640 --> 00:43:18,200
Speaker 1: the people serving this country, like what Joe Biden did,

813
00:43:18,200 --> 00:43:20,640
Speaker 1: which there's no excuse for saying someone needs to be

814
00:43:21,000 --> 00:43:21,480
Speaker 1: put in a.

815
00:43:21,400 --> 00:43:23,040
Speaker 4: Bulls eye, none, none, whatsoever.

816
00:43:23,080 --> 00:43:25,880
Speaker 1: And then and just and then, and then the media

817
00:43:25,960 --> 00:43:30,400
Speaker 1: coverage afterwards with CNN and saying service Secret Service rushes

818
00:43:30,440 --> 00:43:33,200
Speaker 1: Trump off stage after he falls at a rolly not

819
00:43:33,239 --> 00:43:36,960
Speaker 1: mentioning it's attempted a bullet flying towards his face, which

820
00:43:37,000 --> 00:43:38,880
Speaker 1: is why he fell down. As as if you just

821
00:43:39,040 --> 00:43:42,080
Speaker 1: so you just like put all of this together, and

822
00:43:42,160 --> 00:43:43,920
Speaker 1: it's you know, it goes back to the question like,

823
00:43:44,160 --> 00:43:45,680
Speaker 1: you know, how the hell did we get here? Well,

824
00:43:45,760 --> 00:43:49,080
Speaker 1: you know, look at how gross all of this is,

825
00:43:49,120 --> 00:43:52,319
Speaker 1: you know, look at how the lack of leadership, the hatefulness,

826
00:43:52,360 --> 00:43:55,000
Speaker 1: the spitefulness of the media, of our own government, of

827
00:43:55,040 --> 00:43:55,960
Speaker 1: the current president.

828
00:43:56,760 --> 00:44:01,120
Speaker 3: Absolutely and you see President Trump president in Biden's interview

829
00:44:01,280 --> 00:44:07,640
Speaker 3: with Lester Holt yesterday, it was absolutely sickening. It was like,

830
00:44:07,840 --> 00:44:12,600
Speaker 3: first of all, zero president has not acknowledged his part

831
00:44:12,960 --> 00:44:16,879
Speaker 3: that he's played in this zero humility expressed it all,

832
00:44:17,440 --> 00:44:22,800
Speaker 3: and the guy pivots right back to hoaxes, the bloodbath hopes.

833
00:44:23,080 --> 00:44:24,800
Speaker 2: No empathy, no empathy.

834
00:44:24,440 --> 00:44:28,880
Speaker 1: No empathy whatsoever inhuman to not even have a level

835
00:44:29,160 --> 00:44:31,720
Speaker 1: even if you hate, like it's like just zero empathy.

836
00:44:32,080 --> 00:44:36,759
Speaker 3: And these are complete and total lies. And again the

837
00:44:37,320 --> 00:44:42,840
Speaker 3: tragic irony is these lies are part of what led

838
00:44:42,960 --> 00:44:46,360
Speaker 3: to this. And again it's not just irresponsible rhetoric on

839
00:44:46,400 --> 00:44:48,960
Speaker 3: the campaign troll and you know because and this is

840
00:44:48,960 --> 00:44:51,400
Speaker 3: why I say, I refuse to both sides the issue,

841
00:44:51,440 --> 00:44:53,800
Speaker 3: because when Trump gets up there and says, if hey,

842
00:44:53,840 --> 00:44:56,200
Speaker 3: America will cease to exist as we know it, or

843
00:44:56,239 --> 00:45:00,160
Speaker 3: America is going to be fundamentally different if Biden's elect did.

844
00:45:00,480 --> 00:45:04,040
Speaker 3: But that's very different than saying Trump is Hitler. That's

845
00:45:04,160 --> 00:45:08,040
Speaker 3: very different than a ten plus year operation to make

846
00:45:08,040 --> 00:45:11,319
Speaker 3: people think that Trump is a Russian asset. A day

847
00:45:11,520 --> 00:45:14,440
Speaker 3: after the assassination on the American president, the New York

848
00:45:14,560 --> 00:45:18,640
Speaker 3: Times labeled Trump as a trader. Like these are very

849
00:45:18,800 --> 00:45:23,680
Speaker 3: very different things. These are qualitatively different things. And the left,

850
00:45:23,800 --> 00:45:25,799
Speaker 3: and if you even look at how the left is

851
00:45:25,840 --> 00:45:29,440
Speaker 3: reacting now, it took me, you know, about a day

852
00:45:29,480 --> 00:45:31,960
Speaker 3: to get onto social media to see how people were

853
00:45:32,000 --> 00:45:33,200
Speaker 3: reacting after the rally.

854
00:45:33,960 --> 00:45:37,440
Speaker 4: But like the left is almost doubling down, they like,

855
00:45:37,960 --> 00:45:38,640
Speaker 4: they don't care.

856
00:45:39,520 --> 00:45:43,840
Speaker 3: The vast majority of the radical base of the left

857
00:45:44,680 --> 00:45:47,520
Speaker 3: was basically like, hey, f around and find out Trump

858
00:45:47,560 --> 00:45:51,680
Speaker 3: had this coming, and you're just like, okay, so you

859
00:45:51,760 --> 00:45:55,520
Speaker 3: want me now to just all let's all come together.

860
00:45:55,600 --> 00:45:57,520
Speaker 3: You want me to come together with that. Actually, that's

861
00:45:58,120 --> 00:46:00,960
Speaker 3: not at all what this moment calls for. It calls

862
00:46:01,000 --> 00:46:03,640
Speaker 3: for picking a side. And I know what side I'm on,

863
00:46:03,920 --> 00:46:05,560
Speaker 3: and I know I'm on the side of right here.

864
00:46:05,640 --> 00:46:08,000
Speaker 3: I just do no pun intended, but I know that

865
00:46:08,040 --> 00:46:11,120
Speaker 3: I'm on the side of good because one of the

866
00:46:11,120 --> 00:46:14,480
Speaker 3: things that fighting in Afghanistan and then running twice for

867
00:46:14,560 --> 00:46:18,600
Speaker 3: political office, Lisa, I'm telling you, was that I especially

868
00:46:18,640 --> 00:46:22,440
Speaker 3: this was especially true to me when I was running,

869
00:46:23,320 --> 00:46:26,160
Speaker 3: that there is a spiritual war going on in this nation,

870
00:46:26,440 --> 00:46:30,000
Speaker 3: and America truly is ground zero for it. And I

871
00:46:30,120 --> 00:46:33,600
Speaker 3: mean that, and we're in the thick of it now,

872
00:46:33,719 --> 00:46:35,360
Speaker 3: and I know we're on the right side.

873
00:46:35,520 --> 00:46:38,760
Speaker 1: We've got more with Sean. But first, since the start

874
00:46:38,760 --> 00:46:41,480
Speaker 1: of the Swords of Iron war in Israel in October seventh,

875
00:46:41,520 --> 00:46:43,839
Speaker 1: we have seen death and destruction in the Holy Land

876
00:46:44,040 --> 00:46:47,200
Speaker 1: for more than forty years. The International Fellowship of Christians

877
00:46:47,200 --> 00:46:49,520
Speaker 1: and Jews has been off the ground in Israel and

878
00:46:49,560 --> 00:46:52,120
Speaker 1: within hours of the war starting, and every day since

879
00:46:52,360 --> 00:46:55,040
Speaker 1: they've been feeding the hungary and protecting the vulnerable. The

880
00:46:55,080 --> 00:46:57,880
Speaker 1: attacks continue in the North and the South and Israel,

881
00:46:57,920 --> 00:47:01,080
Speaker 1: but there are resilient survivors who brave share their stories

882
00:47:01,320 --> 00:47:04,120
Speaker 1: and a series of the Fellowship calls Faces of Iron

883
00:47:04,560 --> 00:47:08,680
Speaker 1: survivors like Shuki. On October seventh, Shuki saved himself and

884
00:47:08,719 --> 00:47:12,200
Speaker 1: eight others when Hamas invaded. Shuki and eight others ran

885
00:47:12,280 --> 00:47:15,239
Speaker 1: to the bomb shelter. All that stood between life and

886
00:47:15,320 --> 00:47:17,919
Speaker 1: death was the door of the bomb shelter. Shuki held

887
00:47:17,960 --> 00:47:20,799
Speaker 1: the door closed for nearly six hours, never letting go

888
00:47:20,840 --> 00:47:24,160
Speaker 1: of the handle. Christians like you support Israel through the

889
00:47:24,160 --> 00:47:27,680
Speaker 1: International Fellowship of Christian and Jews. It's this support that

890
00:47:27,760 --> 00:47:31,239
Speaker 1: helps these survivors remain steadfast and strong. To hear more

891
00:47:31,320 --> 00:47:33,920
Speaker 1: stories like this one and to show your support for Israel,

892
00:47:34,200 --> 00:47:41,920
Speaker 1: visit support IFCJ dot org. I really think it comes

893
00:47:42,000 --> 00:47:44,240
Speaker 1: down to, and you know this is going to sound harsh,

894
00:47:44,400 --> 00:47:48,320
Speaker 1: but I the left does. They don't value human life

895
00:47:48,440 --> 00:47:50,759
Speaker 1: in the way that we on the right do. I mean,

896
00:47:50,800 --> 00:47:52,719
Speaker 1: you see it on the issue of abortion, calling a

897
00:47:52,719 --> 00:47:55,960
Speaker 1: baby a clumpus cells. You see it in the dehumanization

898
00:47:56,760 --> 00:47:59,279
Speaker 1: of President Trump, of treating him that he like he

899
00:47:59,360 --> 00:48:01,279
Speaker 1: is not a human being, you know, as you pointed out,

900
00:48:01,360 --> 00:48:03,879
Speaker 1: calling him hitler, calling him all these different things, devaluing

901
00:48:03,920 --> 00:48:05,880
Speaker 1: his life as just a human being, as a father,

902
00:48:06,200 --> 00:48:09,000
Speaker 1: you know, Milania put out the most beautiful statement about

903
00:48:09,040 --> 00:48:11,960
Speaker 1: her husband, but just humanizing him as just as a.

904
00:48:11,920 --> 00:48:13,040
Speaker 2: Person, you know.

905
00:48:13,280 --> 00:48:16,440
Speaker 1: And so it's like and even during COVID, the way

906
00:48:16,480 --> 00:48:18,920
Speaker 1: they treated the unvaccinated people like me, you know, like

907
00:48:19,160 --> 00:48:22,440
Speaker 1: treating people like you know, subhuman, like you know, oh,

908
00:48:22,480 --> 00:48:24,279
Speaker 1: don't even let them go to the grocery store, like,

909
00:48:24,320 --> 00:48:27,000
Speaker 1: don't spend time with them, like you know, they don't

910
00:48:27,000 --> 00:48:30,759
Speaker 1: deserve hospital treatment. It's like we've just seen sort of

911
00:48:30,760 --> 00:48:34,319
Speaker 1: this dehumanization come from the left, and that's more dangerous

912
00:48:34,320 --> 00:48:36,360
Speaker 1: than any sort of you know, rhetoric or any of

913
00:48:36,400 --> 00:48:39,759
Speaker 1: these other things, because if you don't view the other

914
00:48:39,840 --> 00:48:43,600
Speaker 1: persons as a human being, then taking their life means nothing.

915
00:48:43,640 --> 00:48:44,280
Speaker 2: It doesn't matter.

916
00:48:44,960 --> 00:48:49,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, the left views their politics as the right views

917
00:48:49,719 --> 00:48:53,920
Speaker 3: are faith in religion. To the left, the state is

918
00:48:54,440 --> 00:48:57,879
Speaker 3: their religion. They put their faith in the state, and

919
00:48:59,000 --> 00:49:05,160
Speaker 3: when that happens, bad things happen. And I never thought

920
00:49:05,239 --> 00:49:09,000
Speaker 3: in my life. You know, I grew up in you know,

921
00:49:09,880 --> 00:49:13,000
Speaker 3: in the nineties, the height of grunge and punk rock

922
00:49:13,040 --> 00:49:16,200
Speaker 3: and everything else. Never thought that i'd see in my

923
00:49:16,360 --> 00:49:19,480
Speaker 3: life a bunch of punk rockers that I liked in

924
00:49:19,520 --> 00:49:23,160
Speaker 3: the nineties as a kid be boot lickers of the

925
00:49:23,200 --> 00:49:24,600
Speaker 3: actual state itself.

926
00:49:24,640 --> 00:49:28,040
Speaker 4: Now, I mean, that is how far the left has got.

927
00:49:28,120 --> 00:49:30,000
Speaker 3: The left used to be at the height of the

928
00:49:30,080 --> 00:49:33,520
Speaker 3: Vietnam War, if the government was out there telling you

929
00:49:33,600 --> 00:49:35,719
Speaker 3: that you had to eat white bread for your health,

930
00:49:35,760 --> 00:49:38,320
Speaker 3: well they'd out there be eating grain or wheat or whatever.

931
00:49:38,480 --> 00:49:43,120
Speaker 3: They came They were the anti war party, anti government party.

932
00:49:43,400 --> 00:49:46,960
Speaker 3: To now come full circle, they're on the side of

933
00:49:47,000 --> 00:49:49,799
Speaker 3: big corporations, are on the side of big Hollywood. They're

934
00:49:49,840 --> 00:49:53,120
Speaker 3: on the side of you know, a big government. It's

935
00:49:53,239 --> 00:49:55,960
Speaker 3: inexplicable to me how they've come full circle.

936
00:49:56,000 --> 00:49:57,759
Speaker 4: But you know, you see people.

937
00:49:57,480 --> 00:50:01,160
Speaker 3: Like Mark Hamill, Luke Skywak and Star Wars is a

938
00:50:01,200 --> 00:50:03,640
Speaker 3: huge Star Wars fan as a kid. He's out there

939
00:50:03,840 --> 00:50:06,279
Speaker 3: making fun of Trump because of the bandage that he

940
00:50:06,320 --> 00:50:08,439
Speaker 3: has on his ear. Really, this is where you're at,

941
00:50:08,520 --> 00:50:09,520
Speaker 3: Mark Hamill, You freak.

942
00:50:09,760 --> 00:50:12,040
Speaker 1: I just got shot at you loser, you know, like

943
00:50:12,080 --> 00:50:15,520
Speaker 1: what you know, like I would like to see him,

944
00:50:15,560 --> 00:50:17,840
Speaker 1: he'd probably cower and fear, you know. I mean, just

945
00:50:18,400 --> 00:50:20,120
Speaker 1: I just I will never get over that image of

946
00:50:20,200 --> 00:50:21,120
Speaker 1: him with his fist up.

947
00:50:21,320 --> 00:50:24,120
Speaker 2: Just he truly is an He's a legend, you know.

948
00:50:24,160 --> 00:50:26,640
Speaker 1: I mean, it's just it's and it's like, you know,

949
00:50:26,680 --> 00:50:28,480
Speaker 1: we have so many of these conversations.

950
00:50:29,239 --> 00:50:31,000
Speaker 2: Uh, you know, you do this for a living. I

951
00:50:31,040 --> 00:50:31,560
Speaker 2: do this for you know.

952
00:50:31,560 --> 00:50:33,239
Speaker 1: We have so many of these conversations, and a lot

953
00:50:33,239 --> 00:50:35,640
Speaker 1: of it can be kind of depressing, you know. And

954
00:50:35,640 --> 00:50:39,960
Speaker 1: and even though we're having a you know, dark conversation

955
00:50:40,200 --> 00:50:42,560
Speaker 1: in terms of what happened that day, I have just

956
00:50:42,600 --> 00:50:46,360
Speaker 1: like a hopefulness that I've not had in quite some

957
00:50:46,520 --> 00:50:49,880
Speaker 1: time of just feeling like President Trump is going to

958
00:50:49,880 --> 00:50:50,759
Speaker 1: win this.

959
00:50:51,040 --> 00:50:52,279
Speaker 2: We have to turn out, we have to we have

960
00:50:52,360 --> 00:50:53,400
Speaker 2: to vote. You can't give up.

961
00:50:53,440 --> 00:50:56,200
Speaker 1: We've got a fight, as he said, But I do

962
00:50:56,280 --> 00:50:58,239
Speaker 1: believe my heart he will win this selection. I do

963
00:50:58,360 --> 00:51:01,680
Speaker 1: believe for the first time and quite some time, that

964
00:51:01,760 --> 00:51:05,000
Speaker 1: we can turn this country around, that the better days

965
00:51:05,040 --> 00:51:09,400
Speaker 1: are ahead of us, that we can regain our strength

966
00:51:09,440 --> 00:51:11,560
Speaker 1: on the world stage, that we can be a respected

967
00:51:11,600 --> 00:51:14,600
Speaker 1: country again, that we do have people in this country

968
00:51:14,680 --> 00:51:17,680
Speaker 1: that truly love America and want to turn this ship.

969
00:51:17,840 --> 00:51:23,480
Speaker 1: So I just I do feel sort of a renewed hopefulness,

970
00:51:24,520 --> 00:51:26,480
Speaker 1: you know, in this you know, strangely, you know, dark

971
00:51:26,520 --> 00:51:29,560
Speaker 1: time of just feeling like we're going to turn this around.

972
00:51:29,600 --> 00:51:30,440
Speaker 2: America is going to be.

973
00:51:30,440 --> 00:51:32,040
Speaker 4: Okay, exactly.

974
00:51:32,440 --> 00:51:36,680
Speaker 3: I couldn't agree with you more. And you know, there

975
00:51:36,800 --> 00:51:40,200
Speaker 3: is there is a movement growing behind President Trump. And

976
00:51:40,400 --> 00:51:45,040
Speaker 3: I'm from Pennsylvania, and I would argue and contend that

977
00:51:45,120 --> 00:51:48,440
Speaker 3: this is There are lots of important swing states, but

978
00:51:48,560 --> 00:51:51,759
Speaker 3: I think this is the most important one. And if

979
00:51:51,800 --> 00:51:53,799
Speaker 3: in other words, like if the Democrats win it, they

980
00:51:53,960 --> 00:51:57,759
Speaker 3: likely win if although there are alternative alternative paths for

981
00:51:57,800 --> 00:52:00,719
Speaker 3: the Republicans if if we lose Pennsylvania, but if Republicans

982
00:52:00,760 --> 00:52:04,279
Speaker 3: win Pennsylvania, it's game, set match. And you know, I

983
00:52:04,320 --> 00:52:07,239
Speaker 3: feel sheepish even making a political argument about this, but

984
00:52:07,320 --> 00:52:09,640
Speaker 3: this is the business and everything is political in today's day,

985
00:52:09,640 --> 00:52:12,279
Speaker 3: and agent this happened at a political rally, this is

986
00:52:12,400 --> 00:52:17,040
Speaker 3: going to entrench I mean, look, Trump has immense support

987
00:52:17,080 --> 00:52:22,319
Speaker 3: in Pennsylvania. He is the first Republican president to win

988
00:52:22,360 --> 00:52:27,480
Speaker 3: Pennsylvania since I believe maybe George H. W. Bush and

989
00:52:27,520 --> 00:52:30,520
Speaker 3: then Ronald Reagan maybe just before him, so a very

990
00:52:30,600 --> 00:52:33,359
Speaker 3: very long time. He has a ton of support here.

991
00:52:34,719 --> 00:52:38,000
Speaker 3: But I think not only is support more entrenched now

992
00:52:38,040 --> 00:52:40,239
Speaker 3: than ever, but people are going to look at that

993
00:52:40,400 --> 00:52:43,400
Speaker 3: image of President Trump and him pumping his fists.

994
00:52:45,000 --> 00:52:45,640
Speaker 4: It's burned.

995
00:52:45,719 --> 00:52:49,279
Speaker 3: It's etched into their very consciousness as Americans, much in

996
00:52:49,320 --> 00:52:51,759
Speaker 3: the same way that nine to eleven was. There's a

997
00:52:51,800 --> 00:52:55,440
Speaker 3: reason why people remember where they were during nine to eleven.

998
00:52:55,480 --> 00:52:56,200
Speaker 4: I bet you you do.

999
00:52:57,680 --> 00:53:01,080
Speaker 3: And I think that this is one of the those moments, Lisa,

1000
00:53:01,640 --> 00:53:04,280
Speaker 3: And the reason why I think, you know, these moments

1001
00:53:04,320 --> 00:53:06,880
Speaker 3: engage our senses are the way that we see, the

1002
00:53:06,920 --> 00:53:09,760
Speaker 3: way that we hear. It engages us at an emotional level,

1003
00:53:09,800 --> 00:53:12,279
Speaker 3: all at the same time. And that's part of the

1004
00:53:12,280 --> 00:53:15,080
Speaker 3: reason why we remember exactly what we had for lunch

1005
00:53:15,120 --> 00:53:17,160
Speaker 3: that day, where we were going on nine to eleven,

1006
00:53:17,360 --> 00:53:20,720
Speaker 3: like who we were talking to. It's all very vivid

1007
00:53:20,760 --> 00:53:23,160
Speaker 3: because it engages all of our senses at once. This

1008
00:53:23,280 --> 00:53:28,080
Speaker 3: sort of feels that way. And you have people in

1009
00:53:28,120 --> 00:53:30,640
Speaker 3: this state, you know, in Pennsylvania there are probably over

1010
00:53:30,680 --> 00:53:34,839
Speaker 3: one point two million independents who buy and large pay

1011
00:53:34,880 --> 00:53:39,440
Speaker 3: attention maybe thirty sixty days prior to an election. Why,

1012
00:53:39,440 --> 00:53:42,720
Speaker 3: I guarantee you they're all paying attention to what happened

1013
00:53:43,120 --> 00:53:48,080
Speaker 3: at that rally, and it's etched into their consciousness, and

1014
00:53:48,120 --> 00:53:50,799
Speaker 3: I think I think it's going to sway their vote

1015
00:53:50,800 --> 00:53:54,600
Speaker 3: on election day. I mean, I obviously it's Pennsylvania. Anything

1016
00:53:54,600 --> 00:53:58,120
Speaker 3: could happen. It's always going to be close. But it's

1017
00:53:58,120 --> 00:54:01,520
Speaker 3: hard not I mean, look, when Chenk is out there, I.

1018
00:54:01,480 --> 00:54:04,480
Speaker 1: Know, just thinking about that, Sean of saying, Okay, that

1019
00:54:04,560 --> 00:54:07,840
Speaker 1: was kind of badass, I'm like, yeah.

1020
00:54:08,800 --> 00:54:11,400
Speaker 2: It was just when you were talking that. Honestly, that

1021
00:54:11,440 --> 00:54:14,280
Speaker 2: popped in my mind. We just had the same thought.

1022
00:54:14,480 --> 00:54:18,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, I know he's out there saying that was pretty badass.

1023
00:54:18,480 --> 00:54:22,399
Speaker 3: If chank Unger's saying, how do you think independence to say,

1024
00:54:22,480 --> 00:54:23,880
Speaker 3: you're exactly.

1025
00:54:23,800 --> 00:54:27,000
Speaker 1: I'm sure even Democrats who probably you know, have not

1026
00:54:27,560 --> 00:54:30,360
Speaker 1: traditionally liked President Trump have to admit. You know, you

1027
00:54:30,440 --> 00:54:32,800
Speaker 1: just you just mentioned one of having to admit to

1028
00:54:32,840 --> 00:54:37,239
Speaker 1: themselves of this stirred something in me because it's just

1029
00:54:37,280 --> 00:54:40,759
Speaker 1: it's just because it just stands in contrast, we've been

1030
00:54:40,840 --> 00:54:43,520
Speaker 1: so weak and almost you know, there's been and I

1031
00:54:43,800 --> 00:54:47,160
Speaker 1: love America so much, and you certainly do.

1032
00:54:47,480 --> 00:54:50,480
Speaker 2: You were put your life on the line for this country.

1033
00:54:51,120 --> 00:54:52,360
Speaker 2: But it's like there's.

1034
00:54:52,080 --> 00:54:55,640
Speaker 1: Been I hate saying being ashamed because that's such a

1035
00:54:55,680 --> 00:54:59,799
Speaker 1: strong word, but you know, I've been ashamed of Joe

1036
00:54:59,800 --> 00:55:04,239
Speaker 1: bi and are standing in this world and feeling, you know,

1037
00:55:05,680 --> 00:55:09,200
Speaker 1: previously such as the strongest superpower, right, like the world's

1038
00:55:09,239 --> 00:55:12,920
Speaker 1: leading superpower, just be sort of like diminished on the

1039
00:55:12,960 --> 00:55:17,040
Speaker 1: world stage, and just affeckless president who says things like

1040
00:55:17,120 --> 00:55:19,120
Speaker 1: it's time to put Trump in a bullseye and then

1041
00:55:19,520 --> 00:55:21,279
Speaker 1: sits there and tries to act as if, you know,

1042
00:55:21,320 --> 00:55:23,680
Speaker 1: he's the victim and as if, you know, like he's

1043
00:55:23,760 --> 00:55:25,239
Speaker 1: the I bear and no responsibility.

1044
00:55:25,239 --> 00:55:26,440
Speaker 2: What are you talking about.

1045
00:55:26,200 --> 00:55:29,759
Speaker 1: You know, just the lies and just I've sort of

1046
00:55:29,760 --> 00:55:32,160
Speaker 1: had a feeling of, you know, being a little bit

1047
00:55:32,160 --> 00:55:38,280
Speaker 1: of ashamed of America lately. And yeah, this just saying

1048
00:55:38,280 --> 00:55:42,440
Speaker 1: this and seeing his reaction, in the audience's reaction gives

1049
00:55:42,440 --> 00:55:45,480
Speaker 1: me a strange sense of pride in this country and

1050
00:55:45,480 --> 00:55:48,359
Speaker 1: that you know, we're going to be that country again.

1051
00:55:48,600 --> 00:55:51,920
Speaker 1: You know, we're going to be the world's leading superpower again.

1052
00:55:52,280 --> 00:55:54,520
Speaker 1: I mean, maybe we still are, but clearly other countries

1053
00:55:54,520 --> 00:55:55,319
Speaker 1: don't feel that way.

1054
00:55:57,400 --> 00:55:59,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, And you know, I think what this election is

1055
00:56:00,040 --> 00:56:02,600
Speaker 3: going to come down to. You know, I think in

1056
00:56:02,680 --> 00:56:05,879
Speaker 3: twenty twenty they were able to hide Biden. They were

1057
00:56:05,920 --> 00:56:10,040
Speaker 3: able to say, well, look, Biden's entire career has been

1058
00:56:10,040 --> 00:56:13,759
Speaker 3: a moderate sold lunchbucket, Joe from Scranton. You know, he's

1059
00:56:13,760 --> 00:56:16,600
Speaker 3: worked with Republicans before, and because they were able to

1060
00:56:16,719 --> 00:56:21,200
Speaker 3: hide him, they were able to push that BS message. Well,

1061
00:56:21,360 --> 00:56:24,120
Speaker 3: people have had their fill of Joe Biden now. And

1062
00:56:24,800 --> 00:56:28,800
Speaker 3: elections are a funny thing, Lisa, because as a candidate,

1063
00:56:28,840 --> 00:56:31,960
Speaker 3: you've got to you know, first of all, it's it's

1064
00:56:32,600 --> 00:56:35,719
Speaker 3: candidates and incumbents forget that. Elections are not about them.

1065
00:56:36,000 --> 00:56:38,799
Speaker 3: Elections are about the people. And so part of your

1066
00:56:38,840 --> 00:56:42,000
Speaker 3: job as a candidate is to project a vision for

1067
00:56:42,160 --> 00:56:45,000
Speaker 3: the people that you intend to serve, and it has

1068
00:56:45,080 --> 00:56:48,719
Speaker 3: to always be about them and never about you. And

1069
00:56:49,160 --> 00:56:52,399
Speaker 3: when a campaign narrative rights itself. And what I mean

1070
00:56:52,440 --> 00:56:54,960
Speaker 3: by that is, you know James Carvel's own you know,

1071
00:56:54,960 --> 00:56:59,480
Speaker 3: when he used to say it's the economy stupid. He's

1072
00:56:59,520 --> 00:57:01,960
Speaker 3: saying that if you're a political leader and you focus

1073
00:57:02,040 --> 00:57:06,439
Speaker 3: on setting the conditions for a great economy, everything else

1074
00:57:06,440 --> 00:57:08,760
Speaker 3: sort of just falls into place. Because the American people

1075
00:57:08,760 --> 00:57:13,200
Speaker 3: are happy with their lives. The script writes itself, Well,

1076
00:57:13,239 --> 00:57:18,280
Speaker 3: the Democrats have changed their messaging inexplicably, so by the

1077
00:57:18,280 --> 00:57:22,120
Speaker 3: way to it's the economy. The economy is great, stupid,

1078
00:57:22,640 --> 00:57:27,520
Speaker 3: and that ain't resonating with the American people because you know, look,

1079
00:57:27,560 --> 00:57:30,480
Speaker 3: I'm a paycheck to paycheck guy. Every time we go

1080
00:57:30,520 --> 00:57:33,800
Speaker 3: to the grocery store, one hundred bucks fills up your

1081
00:57:33,840 --> 00:57:39,680
Speaker 3: cart less. The campaign narrative for President Trump, in many ways,

1082
00:57:39,800 --> 00:57:43,440
Speaker 3: is writing itself, and no amount of spin from the media,

1083
00:57:43,960 --> 00:57:47,959
Speaker 3: no amount of spin from Biden, can change that trajectory

1084
00:57:48,520 --> 00:57:53,520
Speaker 3: because things just suck right now. People have less than

1085
00:57:53,560 --> 00:57:56,800
Speaker 3: their four oh one K groceries are expensive as hell,

1086
00:57:57,400 --> 00:58:00,080
Speaker 3: can barely afford to put gas in your car, or

1087
00:58:00,320 --> 00:58:05,120
Speaker 3: is overwhelmed. Nobody is buying that that. Nobody believe me,

1088
00:58:05,240 --> 00:58:09,040
Speaker 3: Nobody is buying that. That crime is at historic close.

1089
00:58:09,920 --> 00:58:13,000
Speaker 3: I mean, our militaries in the grips of a recruiting crisis.

1090
00:58:13,080 --> 00:58:15,800
Speaker 3: I mean, it's just the list goes on and on

1091
00:58:15,840 --> 00:58:20,320
Speaker 3: and on. People feel discontent, and it's hard to see

1092
00:58:20,400 --> 00:58:24,160
Speaker 3: how Biden turns it around. I mean, outside of you know,

1093
00:58:24,480 --> 00:58:27,880
Speaker 3: dare I say, you know, a massive mail in ballot operation,

1094
00:58:28,160 --> 00:58:30,840
Speaker 3: which you know, the Democrats are real good at, but

1095
00:58:30,920 --> 00:58:33,600
Speaker 3: Republicans are catching up there. They're not going to be

1096
00:58:33,760 --> 00:58:36,600
Speaker 3: the Democrats don't have They still have an advantage, but

1097
00:58:37,480 --> 00:58:39,320
Speaker 3: it's not as great as it was in twenty twenty.

1098
00:58:39,520 --> 00:58:42,080
Speaker 1: I have I have never in my life felt more

1099
00:58:42,320 --> 00:58:46,000
Speaker 1: vote motivated to get out and vote for someone. In

1100
00:58:46,040 --> 00:58:49,880
Speaker 1: my entire life. There's there's not a single candidate throughout

1101
00:58:49,920 --> 00:58:51,960
Speaker 1: my lifetime. I have felt this motivated to go out

1102
00:58:52,000 --> 00:58:54,480
Speaker 1: and support. And also I've never in my life felt

1103
00:58:55,440 --> 00:58:57,479
Speaker 1: like the selection is uh.

1104
00:58:59,040 --> 00:58:59,600
Speaker 4: You know, I don't.

1105
00:58:59,600 --> 00:59:03,800
Speaker 1: I don't think we get another try after this one.

1106
00:59:04,000 --> 00:59:06,240
Speaker 1: In terms of what Biden would do with another four

1107
00:59:06,320 --> 00:59:08,840
Speaker 1: years for you know, whoever, if it's Kamala, whoever it is.

1108
00:59:10,360 --> 00:59:11,080
Speaker 4: I agree.

1109
00:59:11,240 --> 00:59:13,360
Speaker 3: You know, your candidates say all the time, well, this

1110
00:59:13,400 --> 00:59:15,520
Speaker 3: is the most important election of our lifetime, and I

1111
00:59:15,680 --> 00:59:19,360
Speaker 3: believe me, I fell into that trap too, But this

1112
00:59:19,520 --> 00:59:23,400
Speaker 3: really feels like that. And you know, you look at

1113
00:59:23,400 --> 00:59:29,120
Speaker 3: the things that Biden has done and it's hard to

1114
00:59:29,120 --> 00:59:33,640
Speaker 3: see how our country lasts another four years. I mean,

1115
00:59:34,160 --> 00:59:37,480
Speaker 3: you've had ten point five million illegal aliens come into

1116
00:59:37,480 --> 00:59:40,480
Speaker 3: this country, and that's that's a number that we probably

1117
00:59:40,480 --> 00:59:44,000
Speaker 3: a conservative estimate. You look at a town like Springfield, Ohio,

1118
00:59:44,080 --> 00:59:46,360
Speaker 3: just a couple of hours away from where I am,

1119
00:59:47,120 --> 00:59:50,160
Speaker 3: overwhelmed by twenty thousand Haitians and a ton of fifty

1120
00:59:50,200 --> 00:59:53,240
Speaker 3: eight thousand, twenty thousand Haitians in the last ten years.

1121
00:59:53,560 --> 00:59:56,640
Speaker 3: How exactly do you think that that town is handling

1122
00:59:56,640 --> 01:00:01,040
Speaker 3: that they're completely overwhelmed And so it's hard to see

1123
01:00:01,080 --> 01:00:04,800
Speaker 3: how we survive another twenty million people coming into this

1124
01:00:04,880 --> 01:00:08,480
Speaker 3: country because the second Biden term, he's not gonna have

1125
01:00:08,520 --> 01:00:11,600
Speaker 3: to worry about being reelected. It's gonna be like the

1126
01:00:11,600 --> 01:00:15,600
Speaker 3: gloves are completely off. It's just hard to see how

1127
01:00:15,600 --> 01:00:18,560
Speaker 3: our country. When they tell the Democrats talk about fundamentally

1128
01:00:18,600 --> 01:00:22,400
Speaker 3: transforming the country, what they mean is is tearing down

1129
01:00:22,440 --> 01:00:25,760
Speaker 3: what it once was, and that after four more years

1130
01:00:25,800 --> 01:00:28,160
Speaker 3: of Biden, it's hard to see how America looks like

1131
01:00:28,200 --> 01:00:29,360
Speaker 3: it did when we grew up.

1132
01:00:29,600 --> 01:00:32,120
Speaker 1: Well, it's like, if this is what he's done trying

1133
01:00:32,120 --> 01:00:35,520
Speaker 1: to get re elected, you know, what the heck what

1134
01:00:35,640 --> 01:00:37,480
Speaker 1: in four years look like when he doesn't have to

1135
01:00:37,480 --> 01:00:40,040
Speaker 1: worry about that. You know, it's like if this, if

1136
01:00:40,080 --> 01:00:42,760
Speaker 1: this is him trying to get the job again, Like,

1137
01:00:42,880 --> 01:00:44,400
Speaker 1: you know, what does he do? What he doesn't have to,

1138
01:00:46,000 --> 01:00:49,880
Speaker 1: but you know, leave us with uh, you know, some hopefulness,

1139
01:00:50,000 --> 01:00:54,000
Speaker 1: you know, leave us with you know what do you

1140
01:00:54,040 --> 01:00:55,520
Speaker 1: what do you what do you think is going to happen?

1141
01:00:55,560 --> 01:00:56,040
Speaker 4: You know what? What?

1142
01:00:57,440 --> 01:00:59,360
Speaker 2: Leave us with something positive? We got we got to

1143
01:00:59,400 --> 01:01:02,320
Speaker 2: end out a note with all of this.

1144
01:01:03,200 --> 01:01:06,520
Speaker 3: Well, I think that Trump. I think Trump rose to

1145
01:01:06,560 --> 01:01:11,600
Speaker 3: the moment. I think Trump has has changed, because like

1146
01:01:11,600 --> 01:01:14,280
Speaker 3: when you get shot at, it does change you.

1147
01:01:15,040 --> 01:01:16,800
Speaker 4: And I think Trump has changed.

1148
01:01:18,080 --> 01:01:21,320
Speaker 3: And I mean obviously he's completely rewritten his election speech

1149
01:01:22,280 --> 01:01:27,000
Speaker 3: or his RNC speech, and it seems to me that

1150
01:01:26,800 --> 01:01:32,200
Speaker 3: that people are going to watch that speech with great anticipation.

1151
01:01:33,520 --> 01:01:35,920
Speaker 3: And just like Trump rose to the moment on that stage,

1152
01:01:35,920 --> 01:01:37,440
Speaker 3: I think he's going to rise to the moment this

1153
01:01:37,480 --> 01:01:42,600
Speaker 3: week at the RNC. And strangely enough, say what you

1154
01:01:42,600 --> 01:01:44,240
Speaker 3: want about Trump, I think he's going to be the

1155
01:01:44,320 --> 01:01:47,400
Speaker 3: leader that unites us in these very very dark times,

1156
01:01:47,560 --> 01:01:51,040
Speaker 3: that brings this country together in these very very dark times.

1157
01:01:51,120 --> 01:01:53,560
Speaker 3: And that's no small feat considering the amount of time

1158
01:01:53,600 --> 01:01:56,640
Speaker 3: and effort that Democrats and the media have spent on

1159
01:01:56,760 --> 01:02:00,320
Speaker 3: making him out to be a terrible, terrible human being.

1160
01:02:01,320 --> 01:02:04,200
Speaker 3: He's fought through that. Look at what he's been through

1161
01:02:04,400 --> 01:02:08,480
Speaker 3: and he's come out stronger than before. So if that

1162
01:02:08,640 --> 01:02:12,640
Speaker 3: theme continues to play out, Lisa, it's hard to see

1163
01:02:12,680 --> 01:02:16,920
Speaker 3: how America itself doesn't come out stronger than before with

1164
01:02:17,080 --> 01:02:20,680
Speaker 3: him winning. So when it comes down to it this November,

1165
01:02:21,480 --> 01:02:23,320
Speaker 3: I think the American people are going to look at

1166
01:02:23,360 --> 01:02:25,720
Speaker 3: their lives under Trump as president and look at their

1167
01:02:25,760 --> 01:02:29,640
Speaker 3: lives under Biden as president, and they're going to vote accordingly.

1168
01:02:29,680 --> 01:02:33,120
Speaker 3: They're going to pull the lever for the person who

1169
01:02:33,200 --> 01:02:35,800
Speaker 3: their lives were better under, and that is clearly by

1170
01:02:35,840 --> 01:02:37,800
Speaker 3: every statistical and empirical measure.

1171
01:02:38,040 --> 01:02:40,000
Speaker 4: Trump. I think you're right. I think we're going to

1172
01:02:40,040 --> 01:02:40,320
Speaker 4: get it.

1173
01:02:40,320 --> 01:02:42,560
Speaker 3: I think we can and will get America back on

1174
01:02:42,600 --> 01:02:45,320
Speaker 3: the right track again. So keep the faith. The best

1175
01:02:45,400 --> 01:02:46,080
Speaker 3: is yet to come.

1176
01:02:46,440 --> 01:02:49,560
