You see this ABC 28 00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:19,480 Speaker 1: News settlement and the media is freaking out about it. 29 00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:22,680 Speaker 1: But I personally because I went through this with you, 30 00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:24,600 Speaker 1: and then I went through the race and I saw 31 00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:26,000 Speaker 1: what it was like to be on the other side. 32 00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:28,039 Speaker 1: And I look at Pete Haigseeth now and I'm like, 33 00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:31,080 Speaker 1: he is now seeing that as well. I am so 34 00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:33,800 Speaker 1: glad that Trump is not letting this go and he's 35 00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:35,240 Speaker 1: fighting back against the lies. 36 00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:37,759 Speaker 2: I agree with you. You know, you and I were 37 00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:41,360 Speaker 2: on the desk January the sixth. We were on the 38 00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:43,600 Speaker 2: desk ause all of that was unfolding on live television. 39 00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:46,160 Speaker 2: We were doing play by play watching it happen in 40 00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:49,600 Speaker 2: real time, trying to decipher what was happening as that 41 00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:51,560 Speaker 2: riot is I think it was a riot, a fair 42 00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:51,880 Speaker 2: way to. 43 00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:53,080 Speaker 3: Put it unfolded. 44 00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:56,720 Speaker 2: Now we see that in the J six Committee just happened, 45 00:01:57,040 --> 00:01:59,680 Speaker 2: and our friend and colleague John Solomon just announced to 46 00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:02,080 Speaker 2: the world that Liz Cheney has been referred for prosecution 47 00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:06,320 Speaker 2: because she meddled with a witness, Cassidy Hutchinson, the star 48 00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:08,480 Speaker 2: witness who said that Donald Trump lunged at the driver 49 00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:11,000 Speaker 2: of the of the beast of the Secret Service vehicle 50 00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:11,440 Speaker 2: and so worth. 51 00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:12,519 Speaker 3: Oh that's nonsense. 52 00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:18,080 Speaker 2: But look, ABC came out and set a bill Donald 53 00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:21,400 Speaker 2: Trump suit ABC and George Stephanopolis. He won sixteen million 54 00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:23,680 Speaker 2: dollars fifteen million dollars in the settlement, a million dollars 55 00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:27,840 Speaker 2: for attorney's fees. And now ABC News and Georgetephanopolis have 56 00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:29,840 Speaker 2: to apologize at Donald Trump. 57 00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:32,120 Speaker 3: And I think that's a brilliant start, but it's just 58 00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:32,760 Speaker 3: a start. 59 00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:35,120 Speaker 2: What the news media ought to do is apologize to 60 00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:37,760 Speaker 2: all of us for their behavior from the time that 61 00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:41,400 Speaker 2: Donald Trump came down the escalator. Honestly, I mean, they've 62 00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:43,399 Speaker 2: lied to us about Russia. They lied to us about 63 00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:45,560 Speaker 2: Hunter Biden, they've lied to us about January the sixth, 64 00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:48,359 Speaker 2: They've lied about God only knows what. And these are 65 00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:50,079 Speaker 2: the things that we've caught him on, Tutor. The fact 66 00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:52,040 Speaker 2: of the matter is the news media has not done 67 00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:54,919 Speaker 2: its job. It makes it sound like an open border 68 00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:56,760 Speaker 2: is a good idea and that the economy is fine, 69 00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:58,440 Speaker 2: and Joe Biden's perfectly competent. 70 00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:00,360 Speaker 3: I mean, come on, we know no. 71 00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:02,680 Speaker 1: And the reason I'm happy to see this is I 72 00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:05,720 Speaker 1: having been on the other side of it. I experienced 73 00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:07,960 Speaker 1: this where they take your words and they manipulate what 74 00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:11,120 Speaker 1: you say. And I've now said this is sad. But 75 00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:12,720 Speaker 1: I have now come to the point where I've told 76 00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:14,920 Speaker 1: Michigan media, if you're going to pre tape something, I 77 00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:17,320 Speaker 1: won't do it because I don't trust you, and I 78 00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:20,840 Speaker 1: don't trust them. They've too often taken my words, cut 79 00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:23,919 Speaker 1: me off, splice something, put it together, made it look 80 00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:26,320 Speaker 1: like I said something I didn't say. And I believe 81 00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:30,200 Speaker 1: that the twenty twenty two election was lost because of 82 00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:33,160 Speaker 1: the way they manipulated my words, because it gave the 83 00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:36,800 Speaker 1: Democrats something. And that's the problem. What they're doing is 84 00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:40,120 Speaker 1: not reporting news. They're trying to find a SoundBite to 85 00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:41,920 Speaker 1: give to the other side for a commercial. 86 00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:43,920 Speaker 3: Absolutely, and it's a disservice. 87 00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:47,760 Speaker 2: Look, and here I'll refer to this press comment that 88 00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:49,160 Speaker 2: Donald Trump just did in mar A Lago. 89 00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:51,400 Speaker 3: His attitude's totally different to you, probably. 90 00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:52,840 Speaker 2: I mean, you've been around him enough to know, and 91 00:03:52,880 --> 00:03:55,760 Speaker 2: so have I that normally I mean, we were on 92 00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:57,760 Speaker 2: the platform when he would say fake news, and he'd 93 00:03:57,760 --> 00:04:00,440 Speaker 2: point back and everybody would hear us. It's like, not 94 00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:03,560 Speaker 2: exactly us, folks, it's this guy here is not anyhow. 95 00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:06,000 Speaker 1: You're like, no, no, over here, not me. 96 00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:07,360 Speaker 3: I'm the good guy anyhow. 97 00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:09,480 Speaker 2: But in the press conference here there was a question 98 00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:12,160 Speaker 2: asked about preemptive strikes against a rod It's just a 99 00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:13,960 Speaker 2: kind of really stupid question, like you sit up there 100 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:16,040 Speaker 2: say yes, I would do this, Yes, you would never 101 00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:18,960 Speaker 2: give away policy like that. Instead of that, Trump goes, well, 102 00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:22,040 Speaker 2: that's a great question. You know, obviously I can't answer that. 103 00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:24,600 Speaker 2: That's a different Donald Trump than the guy who would 104 00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:25,960 Speaker 2: say that's the dumbest question. 105 00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:27,960 Speaker 3: I've ever heard. You're an idiot. Everybody knows you're an 106 00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:30,039 Speaker 3: idiot reporter. That's the way he used to be. 107 00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:32,720 Speaker 2: So I think Donald Trump is actually seen now an 108 00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:36,440 Speaker 2: opportunity for him to ingratiate himself to some extent with 109 00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:40,159 Speaker 2: the media. Look, the sixteen million dollars against ABC. 110 00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:40,800 Speaker 3: Was one part of it. 111 00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:44,400 Speaker 2: Then you've got, of course, Bob Woodward, You've got CBS News, 112 00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:47,760 Speaker 2: a ten billion dollar lawsuit against CBS News, and Celtzer, 113 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:50,440 Speaker 2: the woman to put out that bogus poll a couple 114 00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:53,400 Speaker 2: of days before the election showing Kamala Harris winning in 115 00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:55,680 Speaker 2: Iowa by three points. I think Trump won by thirteen 116 00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:58,640 Speaker 2: or fourteen. She's only off by sixteen seventeen points. JENNI 117 00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:01,360 Speaker 2: file suit against them because these our people that are 118 00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:04,200 Speaker 2: directly trying to interfere with the election, and in that 119 00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:08,479 Speaker 2: same vein, By the way, isn't it just delicious to 120 00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:11,360 Speaker 2: see Mark Zuckerberg park out a million dollars for Donald 121 00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:12,680 Speaker 2: Trump's inauguration balls. 122 00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:16,359 Speaker 3: Same thing with Jeff Bezos, people that were clearly. 123 00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:19,040 Speaker 2: On the other side in twenty twenty, people that clearly 124 00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:21,960 Speaker 2: manipulated the election and the information, just like you said, 125 00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:25,880 Speaker 2: editing stories, deceptively doing things to push the narrative, whether 126 00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:28,760 Speaker 2: at Facebook or the Washington Post. Now those guys are 127 00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:32,440 Speaker 2: chipping in a million dollars apiece for Trump's inauguration parties. 128 00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:34,919 Speaker 2: I think that's spectacular and I do think it's a 129 00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:35,520 Speaker 2: new day. 130 00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:37,560 Speaker 1: With well and I want to talk about that because 131 00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:39,039 Speaker 1: I've had a lot of people come out and say 132 00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:40,600 Speaker 1: to me, I don't like this. I don't like the 133 00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:43,440 Speaker 1: idea of Mark Zuckerberg coming out like we can't welcome 134 00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:46,160 Speaker 1: them into the fold. They can't be a part of it. 135 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:48,560 Speaker 1: And I disagree because I think that a lot of 136 00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:53,680 Speaker 1: people have been educated, they've seen what the destruction has done. 137 00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:56,320 Speaker 1: I don't want to be the left. The left, that's 138 00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:59,279 Speaker 1: their strategy. If you've been against us, ever, we will 139 00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:02,000 Speaker 1: never welcome you in. And that's not the new Donald Trump. 140 00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:05,240 Speaker 1: And you made a great point, because he has changed, 141 00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:07,920 Speaker 1: and he's admitted that he's changed. I mean, he's kind 142 00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:09,840 Speaker 1: of admitted, he said, he said the other day, so 143 00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:12,640 Speaker 1: a point, Yes, he said the other day. Now suddenly 144 00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:14,680 Speaker 1: nobody wanted to work with me in my first term. 145 00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:16,720 Speaker 1: Now everybody wants to be my friend, he said. I 146 00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:19,200 Speaker 1: don't know. I guess they're saying I have a different attitude, 147 00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:22,520 Speaker 1: or my personality has changed or something. So he's sort 148 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:23,840 Speaker 1: of admitting that. Maybe he's so. 149 00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:27,120 Speaker 2: In fairness, you look back to the way he was 150 00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:29,800 Speaker 2: very combatated during his first term, and I understand why. 151 00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:32,000 Speaker 2: Look at all the lies that were tell all the 152 00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:34,800 Speaker 2: lies that were told, whether it was Russia or you know, 153 00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:37,240 Speaker 2: the January sixth thing after he left office and everything 154 00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:38,920 Speaker 2: in between. There are a lot of lies told about 155 00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:41,240 Speaker 2: what he was in you know, hotel rooms with hookers 156 00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:44,960 Speaker 2: in Moscow, all bogus, all of them. But Donald Trump 157 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:48,000 Speaker 2: after the twenty twenty election, regardless of how that ended up, 158 00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:50,440 Speaker 2: in regardless of what caused that, we can set that 159 00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:53,640 Speaker 2: aside for now. For four years, Donald Trump has studied 160 00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:57,160 Speaker 2: why he lost. Don Hu has studied what went wrong. 161 00:06:57,400 --> 00:06:59,640 Speaker 2: He has studied the people in his first term and 162 00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:02,480 Speaker 2: what wrong there and in the entering and the intermitt 163 00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:04,520 Speaker 2: In four years, there is what's happened in the middle, 164 00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:06,840 Speaker 2: and he has come out with a plan to move forward. 165 00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:10,560 Speaker 2: And that plan includes apparently a better relationship with the media, 166 00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:14,600 Speaker 2: a better relationship with people like look Zuckerberg's powerful Bezos 167 00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:19,000 Speaker 2: is powerful. Better to have your enemies close and make 168 00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:20,040 Speaker 2: sure that they're working with you. 169 00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:21,760 Speaker 3: I understand people sentiments. 170 00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:23,360 Speaker 2: Saying I don't want to forgive those people, I can't. 171 00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:23,680 Speaker 3: Accept them in. 172 00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:26,800 Speaker 2: But you can have a truce, you can lay down 173 00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:28,760 Speaker 2: your weapons, you can be on the same side. You 174 00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:31,560 Speaker 2: cannot be on the receiving end of smears and twisted 175 00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:33,800 Speaker 2: stories all the time. And I think this puts the 176 00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:36,080 Speaker 2: playing field a lot more level. Now, do I think 177 00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:37,880 Speaker 2: the media is going to suddenly come to the right No, 178 00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:40,920 Speaker 2: but do I believe there's a lot of opportunity to 179 00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:44,040 Speaker 2: have an equal footing and an equal playing field. Yeah, 180 00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:45,480 Speaker 2: we can get a lot closer than we were before. 181 00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:48,000 Speaker 2: And I think so far he has done a masterful job. 182 00:07:48,040 --> 00:07:50,000 Speaker 2: He put his cabinet in place in eighteen days. He's 183 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:52,520 Speaker 2: got all these advisors around, and you mentioned Pete Hegseth. 184 00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:55,400 Speaker 2: I think all these people are going through again. Public 185 00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:58,480 Speaker 2: sentiment is with Donald Trump to change the path and 186 00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:01,320 Speaker 2: the direction forward. And with public sentiment, what it is, 187 00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:04,040 Speaker 2: approval rates fifty five, fifty six percent something like that. 188 00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:06,640 Speaker 2: Right now, He's got a path forward and part of 189 00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:10,200 Speaker 2: that is getting your message out. And he's smart enough 190 00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:12,560 Speaker 2: to know and savvy enough to know that you need 191 00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:15,080 Speaker 2: to work with Zuckerberg or Bezos and others as well 192 00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:18,160 Speaker 2: to make sure your message is out in good fashion 193 00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:22,120 Speaker 2: and that people have the ability to hear what's really happening. 194 00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:24,600 Speaker 1: Well, I think that's something that I mean, you know, 195 00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:27,960 Speaker 1: we've just been through this lame duck session in Michigan 196 00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:31,320 Speaker 1: where we have seen an inability to even work with 197 00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:35,040 Speaker 1: each other on the Democrat side, certainly not crossing the aisle. 198 00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:38,040 Speaker 1: I mean, we have a really severe situation here where 199 00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:41,080 Speaker 1: we're potentially going to shut down all of the restaurants, 200 00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:44,800 Speaker 1: We're potentially going to affect everybody's paid time off. It's 201 00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:47,839 Speaker 1: a disaster in the state because of some crazy laws 202 00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:51,120 Speaker 1: that are going into effect. Everybody said they were going 203 00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:54,400 Speaker 1: to come together on this for workers, not for anybody else, 204 00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:58,040 Speaker 1: not for Republicans, not for Democrats, for the people of 205 00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:00,240 Speaker 1: the state who so desperately needed. And it's about out 206 00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:03,240 Speaker 1: fifty thousand people in the restaurant industry that are going 207 00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:06,199 Speaker 1: to be affected by this. They will not cross the aisle. 208 00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:08,440 Speaker 1: They won't even bring it up. This is what I 209 00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:10,839 Speaker 1: think people are seeing with Donald Trump. That's why other 210 00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:14,360 Speaker 1: people are seeing opportunities to go into government, because they're saying, 211 00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:16,200 Speaker 1: wait a minute, all of a sudden, this is a 212 00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:19,240 Speaker 1: we want to work together. I can cross the aisle, 213 00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:22,840 Speaker 1: I can compromise. He's the art of the deal is true. 214 00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:25,720 Speaker 1: You know, there is there is an art to negotiating 215 00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:29,000 Speaker 1: and coming together. You cannot hold you cannot hold yourself in. 216 00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:32,640 Speaker 1: I'm unwilling to speak to anybody else. That doesn't work. 217 00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:35,240 Speaker 3: No, it doesn't work. And you're exactly right, you know, 218 00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:36,240 Speaker 3: and talk about there's. 219 00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:38,960 Speaker 2: Been on wage thing policies that have to change to 220 00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:40,640 Speaker 2: make this country better. Let me give you a quick 221 00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:45,120 Speaker 2: example that I've just read about in California, the hotel workers. 222 00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:47,839 Speaker 2: They have a new minimum wage in California thirty dollars 223 00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:48,240 Speaker 2: an hour. 224 00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:49,600 Speaker 3: And what's happening. 225 00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:51,240 Speaker 2: The hotels are closing the doors and saying we're not 226 00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:53,160 Speaker 2: going to do hotel service anymore, but we will open 227 00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:55,200 Speaker 2: as a homeless shelter because we'll get big money from 228 00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:56,120 Speaker 2: the government for doing that. 229 00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:57,680 Speaker 3: Another failure. 230 00:09:57,720 --> 00:10:00,280 Speaker 2: You know, back on election day, I think the bigest 231 00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:03,600 Speaker 2: loser in my mind, there were some big losers. Barack 232 00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:06,560 Speaker 2: Obama big loser, the national media big loser. 233 00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:09,640 Speaker 3: Gretchen Whitmer big loser on election day. 234 00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:12,439 Speaker 2: And she's not corrected that she was the co chair 235 00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:14,640 Speaker 2: of the Biden and then the Kamala Harris campaign. 236 00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:18,360 Speaker 3: She lost Michigan, she lost the state House in Michigan. 237 00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:21,280 Speaker 2: She has been considered until that point a front runner 238 00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:23,400 Speaker 2: to be a nominee for the Democrat Party to be 239 00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:27,319 Speaker 2: the presidential nominee in twenty twenty eight. I don't know 240 00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:30,440 Speaker 2: if she's got it in the tank anymore. Politically speaking, 241 00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:32,600 Speaker 2: I think she might have exhausted all of her political 242 00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:35,240 Speaker 2: capital because of the loss on the fifth of November, 243 00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:38,160 Speaker 2: and to let this fester, to let this fester with 244 00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:39,560 Speaker 2: the midum wage. How do you think this is going 245 00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:41,520 Speaker 2: to play? I mean, you've been through this. How does 246 00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:44,360 Speaker 2: this play in national campaign ads? She went against the 247 00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:47,200 Speaker 2: little guys, she buried them. When restaurant workers needed help, 248 00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:50,040 Speaker 2: she turned her back and boom, there's the campaign ad 249 00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:52,240 Speaker 2: in boom, she gets crushed. And so I think Gretcha 250 00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:56,360 Speaker 2: Whitmer's stock has gone way down as she's completely disappeared. 251 00:10:56,440 --> 00:10:58,199 Speaker 1: I mean, you make a great point. She was out 252 00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:00,800 Speaker 1: there every single day. We've talked about this a number 253 00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:02,840 Speaker 1: of times. She came out at the end of June 254 00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:05,760 Speaker 1: and said, I'm releasing my memoir that was three pages long. 255 00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:08,120 Speaker 1: She went and did this big tour. She's never returned 256 00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:11,000 Speaker 1: to the state. No one's seen her. I asked last week, 257 00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:12,320 Speaker 1: where is Gretchen. 258 00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:17,120 Speaker 2: She she's with Tim Walls. They both disappeared. Yeah right, yeah, 259 00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:18,640 Speaker 2: hey Tim. 260 00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:23,000 Speaker 1: She's singing Christmas carols and crying into his cheerios. And 261 00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:26,040 Speaker 1: she went out to La and then never came back. 262 00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:29,240 Speaker 1: We're in the middle, I mean her Republican or her 263 00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:32,840 Speaker 1: Democrat House right now, her Speaker of the House has 264 00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:36,880 Speaker 1: made enemies all across the Democrat Party. It's falling apart. 265 00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:40,880 Speaker 1: She's tweeting about how she's helping seniors. Think about the 266 00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:44,960 Speaker 1: irony of the woman who killed more seniors than anybody 267 00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:48,000 Speaker 1: in the history of Michigan coming out in the midst 268 00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:51,160 Speaker 1: of her party breaking down and saying she's helping seniors. 269 00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:55,480 Speaker 1: It's complete chaos. I don't think they have a bench. 270 00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:59,400 Speaker 1: I think what we saw in this election was that 271 00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:01,480 Speaker 1: they realized. Everybody says that they had to give the 272 00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:04,840 Speaker 1: money to Kamala, but really, if somebody had been great, 273 00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:07,280 Speaker 1: they would have moved, they would have gone to that person. 274 00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:09,400 Speaker 1: There's no great person, you know. 275 00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:12,559 Speaker 2: And I'm looking at the twenty twenty eight field, and 276 00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:13,640 Speaker 2: I always look ahead. 277 00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:16,319 Speaker 3: Look, the field for Republicans is short. It's one person. 278 00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:17,280 Speaker 3: It's JD. Vance. 279 00:12:17,280 --> 00:12:19,680 Speaker 2: If they have a successful term here with Donald Trump, 280 00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:23,440 Speaker 2: it's JD. Vance and everybody else is behind him. On 281 00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:25,600 Speaker 2: the Democrat side, you still got Whitmer in there, but 282 00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:27,160 Speaker 2: I don't know that she does nearly as well she 283 00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:30,360 Speaker 2: would have. You've got Joshapiro, of course, she got Gavin 284 00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:32,920 Speaker 2: Neus Mountain California, but his policy has been so bad. 285 00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:34,760 Speaker 3: I don't know where you go. I don't know who 286 00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:36,560 Speaker 3: you end up with on the Democrats side. 287 00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:38,800 Speaker 2: Here in Michigan, Man, the mayor of Detroit, threw a 288 00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:42,000 Speaker 2: curveball into the Democrats plans. 289 00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:44,440 Speaker 3: Mike dougg Boom, I'm going to run as an independent. 290 00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:48,079 Speaker 2: That blows that up, which means whomever Tutor might run 291 00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:53,520 Speaker 2: to be Republican represent Canadate for governor probably wins in 292 00:12:53,559 --> 00:12:56,520 Speaker 2: twenty twenties. You know, I know you've been down that road, 293 00:12:56,520 --> 00:12:59,800 Speaker 2: but clearly it opens up a whole new set of 294 00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:03,040 Speaker 2: possibilities for any Republican running for governor in Michigan. Right. 295 00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:05,800 Speaker 1: I don't know if you saw that the situation where 296 00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:08,960 Speaker 1: Pete booda judge, was on the plane and his plane 297 00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:11,520 Speaker 1: was delayed for an hour, and so, you know, the 298 00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:14,520 Speaker 1: guy who didn't go to East Palestine, who couldn't be 299 00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:17,679 Speaker 1: who hasn't talked about drones, who hasn't helped with any 300 00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:20,880 Speaker 1: of the situations with the airlines, he decided that because 301 00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:25,320 Speaker 1: his flight was delayed for an hour, he would handle snacks. 302 00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:29,400 Speaker 3: Super helpful, super helpful. You know, nobody likes the carpetbagger. 303 00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:32,720 Speaker 2: And look, he moved to Travers City what two years ago, 304 00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:35,800 Speaker 2: northern Michigan to be with his husband, near his family. 305 00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:37,680 Speaker 3: Something like that. Nobody cares. 306 00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:40,360 Speaker 2: I think the Democrats have a real problem. First of all, 307 00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:43,440 Speaker 2: we have Gretchen fatigue here in Michigan, and I think 308 00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:45,640 Speaker 2: that's what's the problem with her. First, and back to 309 00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:48,480 Speaker 2: her problems running as a national candidate. She lost in 310 00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:53,040 Speaker 2: November fifth not just the state on Electoral College, but 311 00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:54,200 Speaker 2: also for the State House. 312 00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:55,280 Speaker 3: So she loses there. 313 00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:58,240 Speaker 2: Then she's out of office for another year. Year and 314 00:13:58,280 --> 00:14:00,520 Speaker 2: a half before she announces her candidate. I mean, she 315 00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:04,120 Speaker 2: talked about disappearing and being completely irrelevant, not a play. 316 00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:05,280 Speaker 3: That's where she is. 317 00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:08,560 Speaker 2: Where somebody like Josh Shapiro's still in office, You've still 318 00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:11,559 Speaker 2: got people that are higher profile. I think Gradua Weimer's 319 00:14:11,559 --> 00:14:15,360 Speaker 2: stock is going down pretty quickly. Actually, I think she's 320 00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:17,920 Speaker 2: in real trouble politically. And what else does she have left. 321 00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:20,800 Speaker 1: Let's take a quick commercial break. We'll continue next on 322 00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:26,800 Speaker 1: the Tutor Dixon Podcast. There was a genius move on 323 00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:29,800 Speaker 1: the part of Donald Trump to go to you know, 324 00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:32,720 Speaker 1: everybody says that Baron helped him pick out the podcast, 325 00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:35,440 Speaker 1: but to go to the podcast, to go to TikTok 326 00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:38,120 Speaker 1: to speak to young people. But I think the difference 327 00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:41,200 Speaker 1: between Donald Trump and Democrats and Gretchen Whitmer was a 328 00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:43,280 Speaker 1: leader in this going to the youth and going to 329 00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:45,480 Speaker 1: TikTok and all of that, is that Donald Trump went 330 00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:49,760 Speaker 1: to these places as himself. They tried to change, They 331 00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:52,400 Speaker 1: tried to do a little the thing with the Communion, 332 00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:55,800 Speaker 1: they tried to do little dances. They made idiots of themselves, 333 00:14:55,880 --> 00:14:59,160 Speaker 1: They embarrassed themselves. It was like Hollywood came in and said, 334 00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:03,240 Speaker 1: we'll produce political candidates in the way that we saw Veep. 335 00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:06,120 Speaker 1: You know, It's like, I mean, this was exactly veep 336 00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:09,720 Speaker 1: what we watched with Kamala Harris, and it was ridiculous. 337 00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:12,680 Speaker 2: When Donald Trump leaned out to drive through windows, still 338 00:15:12,720 --> 00:15:16,040 Speaker 2: had the red tie, has the apron on, still has 339 00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:18,440 Speaker 2: the red tie on. He's still Donald Trump. He's not 340 00:15:18,520 --> 00:15:20,160 Speaker 2: trying to be anything, but what he is is he 341 00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:23,520 Speaker 2: making fries. Sure, he's also making friends. He's there small 342 00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:25,640 Speaker 2: hunger and I know this, and so do you. Here's 343 00:15:25,640 --> 00:15:28,800 Speaker 2: something about Donald Trump that people should know when you're 344 00:15:28,840 --> 00:15:30,800 Speaker 2: having a one on one conversation with Donald Trump. 345 00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:33,520 Speaker 3: You're having a one on one conversation with Donald Trump. 346 00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:34,800 Speaker 3: He looks you right in the eyes. 347 00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:37,400 Speaker 2: Everything else kind of fades away for him. You become 348 00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:39,240 Speaker 2: the most important person in the universe. It might be 349 00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:41,680 Speaker 2: for fifteen seconds or fifteen minutes, but the fact of 350 00:15:41,720 --> 00:15:44,560 Speaker 2: the matter is you become the focus of his attention. 351 00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:45,880 Speaker 3: Same thing with tru McDonalds. 352 00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:47,200 Speaker 2: When he was talking to people on the drive through, 353 00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:49,000 Speaker 2: same thing, he's talking to the guy that worked there. 354 00:15:49,160 --> 00:15:51,160 Speaker 2: Same thing when he was talking to auto workers from 355 00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:55,760 Speaker 2: Michigan to Tennessee, to people working in Missouri, all over 356 00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:59,120 Speaker 2: this country. He connected with people because he connects with 357 00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:01,200 Speaker 2: people on a person level when he talks to him. 358 00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:02,680 Speaker 3: And I think that's really what helped here. 359 00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:05,800 Speaker 2: Plus, he might be a billionaire, but he's a blue 360 00:16:06,040 --> 00:16:08,360 Speaker 2: collar billionaire and it really. 361 00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:09,520 Speaker 3: Worked for him and he connected with people. 362 00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:12,160 Speaker 2: He's not produced by Hollywood, he's not produced by anyone. 363 00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:14,520 Speaker 2: Sometimes people would say maybe he should be a little 364 00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:18,160 Speaker 2: bit produced, But as we've talked about already today, he 365 00:16:18,280 --> 00:16:20,760 Speaker 2: has really I think the best word is evolved. 366 00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:21,800 Speaker 3: He's evolved. 367 00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:25,560 Speaker 2: And I really am optimistic about the second term because 368 00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:28,720 Speaker 2: if you're less combative and you can do exactly what 369 00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:30,680 Speaker 2: you said, Tutor, which is to bring people together. 370 00:16:30,760 --> 00:16:32,680 Speaker 3: It doesn't matter if you're a Democrat or an independent. 371 00:16:32,880 --> 00:16:36,520 Speaker 2: Taulcy Gabbard, Bobby Kennedy, I mean, bring these people on board. 372 00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:39,240 Speaker 2: Elon Musk another former Democrat. Of course, So ho's Donald Trump? 373 00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:40,320 Speaker 3: So was Ronald Reagan? 374 00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:42,000 Speaker 2: Hu to say, well, I don't trust former Democrats like 375 00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:44,920 Speaker 2: Tulci Gabbard. Well, Donald Trump was a Democrat. Ronald Reagan 376 00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:47,960 Speaker 2: was a Democrat. So don't do that either on our side. 377 00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:50,960 Speaker 2: Set that aside. Work for America, work for your future, 378 00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:53,560 Speaker 2: work for your kids, work for this country. I really 379 00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:55,960 Speaker 2: believe that, and I believe he has figured that out 380 00:16:55,960 --> 00:16:57,080 Speaker 2: over the last four years. 381 00:16:57,160 --> 00:16:59,000 Speaker 1: I think you make an interesting point too, when you 382 00:16:59,040 --> 00:17:02,960 Speaker 1: say that he is truly a blue collar president. This 383 00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:05,000 Speaker 1: is so, this is something that I encountered when I 384 00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:06,960 Speaker 1: was campaigning, and I talked to a lot of people 385 00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:11,159 Speaker 1: who were either campaigning or very involved in politics. And 386 00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:13,199 Speaker 1: I will never forget one of the guys that I 387 00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:15,600 Speaker 1: met who was like, I'm just like you. I own 388 00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:18,840 Speaker 1: a shop too, and I own a few around the country. 389 00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:21,160 Speaker 1: And he said, and I tried to make a point 390 00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:23,480 Speaker 1: of once a month going down there and waving to 391 00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:26,560 Speaker 1: the people because they love to see the owner of 392 00:17:26,600 --> 00:17:29,199 Speaker 1: the company going down to their level and waving. And 393 00:17:29,240 --> 00:17:33,520 Speaker 1: I was so disgusted because it wasn't Trump. It wasn't 394 00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:36,200 Speaker 1: that attitude of going out and finding out what they're doing. 395 00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:38,720 Speaker 1: It was waving from afar. And I thought, the amount 396 00:17:38,760 --> 00:17:42,119 Speaker 1: of times that I have spent out in our shop 397 00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:46,359 Speaker 1: working alongside people pulling castings, I putting them in my 398 00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:49,399 Speaker 1: car and driving them to ups on my own and 399 00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:52,680 Speaker 1: making sure we were getting things out. That's working. And 400 00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:55,879 Speaker 1: I worked in the shop. You know, that's working with people. 401 00:17:56,119 --> 00:17:59,560 Speaker 1: You have no idea, and I think too often to 402 00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:03,480 Speaker 1: your point, people think that if you've owned a company, 403 00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:09,160 Speaker 1: you know what the blue collar society of America under 404 00:18:09,359 --> 00:18:13,480 Speaker 1: it lives every day, and they don't. They don't. This 405 00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:16,320 Speaker 1: is a there and that's why Trump resonates with people. 406 00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:19,680 Speaker 1: But you also talked about how he's available people feel 407 00:18:19,720 --> 00:18:23,000 Speaker 1: like they know him. So Stephanie Rule also she made 408 00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:26,800 Speaker 1: news recently for MSNBC. Stephanie Rule came out and said, 409 00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:30,840 Speaker 1: I called Trump and honestly he answered a cell phone. 410 00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:33,880 Speaker 1: And I thought, this is amazing, because it's true, you 411 00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:36,720 Speaker 1: call him and he picks up, and he picks up, 412 00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:38,919 Speaker 1: usually on the first ring. It's like, how does this 413 00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:41,080 Speaker 1: guy just pick up a cell phone? But her point 414 00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:43,720 Speaker 1: was I can call him, and even though he told 415 00:18:43,760 --> 00:18:46,280 Speaker 1: me to go to help, I asked for an interview. 416 00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:48,560 Speaker 1: He picks up. She said, I have to go through 417 00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:50,160 Speaker 1: fifty people to get to a Democrat. 418 00:18:50,520 --> 00:18:52,960 Speaker 2: Right, exactly true. You know Stephanie Rule, I think she 419 00:18:53,160 --> 00:18:55,960 Speaker 2: set the record for the biggest plunge in ratings. I 420 00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:57,720 Speaker 2: don't know why she got the prize, but I think 421 00:18:57,760 --> 00:19:01,479 Speaker 2: she did down sixty five percent. Again, that comes back 422 00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:03,119 Speaker 2: to where we talked about at the beginning of this 423 00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:07,400 Speaker 2: conversation was that the news media owes everybody in apology, 424 00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:11,560 Speaker 2: MSNBC and CNN. They're in free fall. I don't think 425 00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:13,400 Speaker 2: Anderson Cooper is going to get paid twenty million dollars 426 00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:16,359 Speaker 2: a year. Much longer back to Donald Trump going to 427 00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:19,400 Speaker 2: the bodega, for example, in New York City, right. 428 00:19:19,600 --> 00:19:20,640 Speaker 3: Puts on the hard hat. 429 00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:23,200 Speaker 2: He didn't that day, but you've seen lots of pictures 430 00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:26,199 Speaker 2: of downtop our construction sites because he builds things, and 431 00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:27,600 Speaker 2: he puts on the hard hat and he goes out 432 00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:29,359 Speaker 2: and he praises. These are the guys that actually do 433 00:19:29,480 --> 00:19:31,399 Speaker 2: the work. These are the guys that build. These are 434 00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:34,040 Speaker 2: the lunch bucket crew, the guys that have this, you know, 435 00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:38,440 Speaker 2: the Stanley lunch bucket and the Stanley you know, coffee mug, 436 00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:40,760 Speaker 2: the whole bit. Those are the guys he identifies with 437 00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:43,040 Speaker 2: because he does exactly what you just said. He goes 438 00:19:43,040 --> 00:19:45,800 Speaker 2: and he sees people where they are. He meets them 439 00:19:45,800 --> 00:19:49,120 Speaker 2: where they are, not waving from the back of somewhere 440 00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:51,880 Speaker 2: and not some Hollywood produced andying. No, he'll go down 441 00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:54,840 Speaker 2: there and he'll talk and he'll ask people, Okay, how 442 00:19:54,840 --> 00:19:57,760 Speaker 2: do we help you? That's what he did on this campaign. 443 00:19:57,800 --> 00:20:01,120 Speaker 2: How do I help you as a single momb that's working. 444 00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:03,440 Speaker 2: How do I help you as an auto worker trying 445 00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:05,640 Speaker 2: to support a family in Michigan? How do I help 446 00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:08,760 Speaker 2: you make sure the roads are okay in Mississippi or 447 00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:11,400 Speaker 2: whatever the case might be. The fact is he went 448 00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:14,240 Speaker 2: and met people and meets people on their level. And look, 449 00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:17,920 Speaker 2: he will listen to anyone. I mean, he asked me. 450 00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:19,520 Speaker 2: The last time I saw him here was he was 451 00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:21,800 Speaker 2: at an event in Detroit. Last time I saw him 452 00:20:21,800 --> 00:20:24,040 Speaker 2: in person, Well, how are we doing in Michigan? I said, 453 00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:25,720 Speaker 2: I think it's close. I think you're by about a point. 454 00:20:25,760 --> 00:20:26,800 Speaker 2: Thank god, I was about right. 455 00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:28,840 Speaker 3: He said, well, how could that even be true? He goes, 456 00:20:28,920 --> 00:20:30,440 Speaker 3: I mean, how could anybody vote for that guy? 457 00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:32,680 Speaker 2: This is before just before Biden dropped out a couple 458 00:20:32,720 --> 00:20:35,480 Speaker 2: of days and I said, honestly, I don't know. A 459 00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:36,920 Speaker 2: couple of days later he was out. There was a 460 00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:39,360 Speaker 2: Detroit Economic Club meeting. The last time I saw down 461 00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:43,800 Speaker 2: in the person, but again, straight eyed, eye contact, having 462 00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:46,280 Speaker 2: a real conversation about what's going on in Michigan, what 463 00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:48,000 Speaker 2: I see, what I believe is happening. 464 00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:52,520 Speaker 3: And he does this a thousand times a day, five. 465 00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:54,600 Speaker 2: Thousand times a day, because every point of contact, whether 466 00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:59,840 Speaker 2: it's Stephanie Rule or Tutor Dixon or me, he's gleaning information. 467 00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:01,320 Speaker 3: Every time he talks to somebody. 468 00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:03,080 Speaker 2: He reminds me a lot of my own father, who 469 00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:05,119 Speaker 2: would ask a million questions blah blah blahla. Why does 470 00:21:05,119 --> 00:21:07,399 Speaker 2: he ask him any questions? Because he's gathering information? And 471 00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:09,359 Speaker 2: I think Donald Trump is a master at that. And 472 00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:12,840 Speaker 2: he's a master of asking anybody, whether they're here on 473 00:21:12,840 --> 00:21:16,040 Speaker 2: the income ladder or they're billionaires like Elon Musk and 474 00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:18,760 Speaker 2: other people that are around him now, Dana White and 475 00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:22,119 Speaker 2: some of those folks. He asks everybody from the bottom 476 00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:24,280 Speaker 2: of the top and everything in between. And that's why 477 00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:26,960 Speaker 2: he is genuine, and that's why he was able to 478 00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:31,520 Speaker 2: come back and create the greatest comeback in American political history, 479 00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:36,000 Speaker 2: greatest ever. Now his legacy, I think, I think he 480 00:21:36,040 --> 00:21:37,639 Speaker 2: spends his time trying to figure out how to do 481 00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:40,639 Speaker 2: everything he promised, because I think what drives Donald Trump 482 00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:44,400 Speaker 2: now is how do I become This is him thinking, 483 00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:47,639 Speaker 2: how do I become the greatest president? How do I 484 00:21:47,720 --> 00:21:49,880 Speaker 2: become one of the greats? And I do it by 485 00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:52,400 Speaker 2: doing this and this and this and keeping my promises. 486 00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:54,800 Speaker 2: So I think his days are driven by how he 487 00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:58,160 Speaker 2: fulfills the promises he made, because it really drives him. 488 00:21:58,480 --> 00:22:01,560 Speaker 2: He wants to make sure he's not for twenty twenty, 489 00:22:01,880 --> 00:22:06,120 Speaker 2: but for twenty twenty four, five, six, seven, and eight. 490 00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:09,640 Speaker 2: I think that is what fires him up every single day, 491 00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:12,040 Speaker 2: how to be the greatest possible president and leader of 492 00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:12,640 Speaker 2: this country. 493 00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:15,480 Speaker 1: And I think he's setting Republicans up for a success 494 00:22:15,760 --> 00:22:18,200 Speaker 1: in just the country up for success. See, I don't 495 00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:20,080 Speaker 1: think it is about for him. I don't think it's 496 00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:23,840 Speaker 1: necessarily about Republican or Democrat. It's about success. And he said, 497 00:22:24,359 --> 00:22:27,480 Speaker 1: I don't need retribution. Success is the best retribution. He's 498 00:22:27,520 --> 00:22:29,679 Speaker 1: not going to waste his time. He's got four years, 499 00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:32,560 Speaker 1: and it was perfect that he had the space in 500 00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:35,120 Speaker 1: between because he could really see what they were going 501 00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:37,440 Speaker 1: to do. But I think that your point about him 502 00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:40,359 Speaker 1: actually coming to people and meeting people. I think what 503 00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:44,560 Speaker 1: democrats and I will say, honestly, what politicians have gotten 504 00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:48,000 Speaker 1: wrong for years is that they're looking for the photo op. 505 00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:51,600 Speaker 1: With Donald Trump, it's an experience. He's actually out there 506 00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:55,160 Speaker 1: wanting to learn, and the questions is because he wants 507 00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:58,000 Speaker 1: to take as much information back. You'd much rather be 508 00:22:58,240 --> 00:23:01,760 Speaker 1: with somebody, I promise you asking you questions than someone 509 00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:04,360 Speaker 1: who's telling you how things should be, because as long 510 00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:07,399 Speaker 1: as they're telling you, they don't believe you have a clue. 511 00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:08,840 Speaker 1: They don't want to hear from you. 512 00:23:08,760 --> 00:23:09,560 Speaker 3: Right, and he does. 513 00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:12,720 Speaker 2: And you know, let me ask you this, tutor, because 514 00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:15,560 Speaker 2: I think if Donald Trump is successful in this first 515 00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:21,000 Speaker 2: fifteen eighteen months, if Doge works with Elon and Vivey, 516 00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:26,520 Speaker 2: if the border is secured, if the economy continues to 517 00:23:26,560 --> 00:23:29,280 Speaker 2: be solid and some of the pricing comes out if 518 00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:31,520 Speaker 2: he has a good tiars. I think it's entirely possible 519 00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:35,520 Speaker 2: he has a good mid term election cycle. If that's true, 520 00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:37,200 Speaker 2: and I believe from where we stand right now, that's 521 00:23:37,320 --> 00:23:42,080 Speaker 2: entirely likely. What happens to the Democrat Party, honestly, what 522 00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:44,600 Speaker 2: happens to the Democrat Party? Do they become a regional party? 523 00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:47,359 Speaker 2: Because in Michigan, if he has a good two years 524 00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:50,200 Speaker 2: and a good term, then like I say, JD. Vance's 525 00:23:50,240 --> 00:23:51,879 Speaker 2: your short list there it is you move forward with 526 00:23:51,920 --> 00:23:54,439 Speaker 2: the president who's forty four years old, young, environ and 527 00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:57,320 Speaker 2: continues to do those things that have brought America back. 528 00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:00,439 Speaker 2: What's left of the Democrat Party because they're not going 529 00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:03,760 Speaker 2: to hold on to New Jersey or Maine or other 530 00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:05,920 Speaker 2: states that were close this time, they'll start to see 531 00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:09,240 Speaker 2: erosion of the support in states. I mean those are states, Minnesota, 532 00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:12,520 Speaker 2: New Jersey, Main We're all within five points, right, So 533 00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:15,240 Speaker 2: that's pretty close in the world of electoral politics. 534 00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:17,920 Speaker 3: And he could help the Republicans take all of that. 535 00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:22,880 Speaker 2: And again, it's not Republican, it's not Democrat, not hardcore 536 00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:26,040 Speaker 2: for him, and it's not independent. It's doing the work 537 00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:28,879 Speaker 2: of helping this country move forward. 538 00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:30,920 Speaker 3: And be successful. I think you're exactly right. 539 00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:34,320 Speaker 1: I mean, I think the Democrat Party has a major overhaul. 540 00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:36,800 Speaker 1: I think after so this is how I kind of 541 00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:39,560 Speaker 1: can break it down when I look at twenty sixteen. 542 00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:43,080 Speaker 1: I mean, we in Michigan were a great example because 543 00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:45,919 Speaker 1: we're a swing state. So the Democrat Party started to 544 00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:48,840 Speaker 1: take over, and they took over in a very nefarious, 545 00:24:49,040 --> 00:24:52,080 Speaker 1: negative way. They brought in all these C fours and 546 00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:56,200 Speaker 1: C three's. They started to spread this misinfformation. They started 547 00:24:56,240 --> 00:25:00,200 Speaker 1: to get into people's heads and spread fear and anxiety, 548 00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:02,000 Speaker 1: and they figured it as long as they could make 549 00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:05,800 Speaker 1: you as scared as possible of Republicans, they could win. 550 00:25:06,840 --> 00:25:09,960 Speaker 1: There was a turning point. They went too far when 551 00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:14,760 Speaker 1: they started to go after Trump with legal cases, when 552 00:25:14,760 --> 00:25:18,679 Speaker 1: they raided Mara a Lago, when the assassination attempt happened, 553 00:25:18,680 --> 00:25:21,520 Speaker 1: and they wouldn't shut their mouths. The American people went, 554 00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:23,800 Speaker 1: this is not the country that we're used to. And 555 00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:26,920 Speaker 1: the Democrats fell on their faces because they don't have 556 00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:29,760 Speaker 1: a plan B. Their Plan A was to freak you out. 557 00:25:29,800 --> 00:25:33,320 Speaker 1: Their plan A worked in twenty twenty, they thought, and 558 00:25:33,359 --> 00:25:35,720 Speaker 1: they figured they could get it to work again. And 559 00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:40,280 Speaker 1: yet they completely fumbled and now they are It's like 560 00:25:40,320 --> 00:25:42,920 Speaker 1: they're standing there with their standing there naked in front 561 00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:45,960 Speaker 1: of the American people because people have seen exactly what 562 00:25:46,040 --> 00:25:48,240 Speaker 1: their plan is and they don't like it. They're not 563 00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:52,000 Speaker 1: buying it anymore. I mean, talk about real versus photo 564 00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:54,600 Speaker 1: op I mean you think about how stage things are 565 00:25:54,880 --> 00:25:58,440 Speaker 1: just in Michigan. In Michigan, Gretchen Whitmer had this big 566 00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:00,879 Speaker 1: I'm going to fix the damn roads. That was the 567 00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:05,000 Speaker 1: slogan she had, and then her photo ops were her 568 00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:09,680 Speaker 1: going out there with a shovel and putting asphalt into potholes, 569 00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:12,879 Speaker 1: which is not how you fix the roads. And everybody's like, 570 00:26:12,960 --> 00:26:15,919 Speaker 1: this is not an actual fix. Was all faked, It 571 00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:18,360 Speaker 1: was all And then I think that once we saw 572 00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:23,640 Speaker 1: Kamala's campaign, when you see the production company of Oprah 573 00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:25,680 Speaker 1: gets two and a half million dollars, when you see 574 00:26:25,680 --> 00:26:28,639 Speaker 1: all this money went out the door for all of 575 00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:31,400 Speaker 1: the show, but nothing was real. I mean when you 576 00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:34,119 Speaker 1: had Beyonce show up and everybody left the minute they 577 00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:37,680 Speaker 1: figured out she wasn't performing. They weren't there for democrats, 578 00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:40,240 Speaker 1: they were there for a free concert. You know, people 579 00:26:40,320 --> 00:26:43,240 Speaker 1: started to realize this now the Democrat Party is in 580 00:26:43,280 --> 00:26:46,639 Speaker 1: free fall, and I mean there are people clinging to 581 00:26:46,840 --> 00:26:50,320 Speaker 1: the we're going to have the trans agenda, We're going 582 00:26:50,359 --> 00:26:52,919 Speaker 1: to have the tampons and the boys' bathroom agenda. And 583 00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:55,080 Speaker 1: then you have the people on the other side of 584 00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:57,359 Speaker 1: the Democrat Party that are going, actually, I think this 585 00:26:57,440 --> 00:26:59,800 Speaker 1: is what lost us the election. Maybe we should back 586 00:26:59,840 --> 00:27:02,320 Speaker 1: off and start thinking about the workers again. No, we're 587 00:27:02,560 --> 00:27:04,920 Speaker 1: pulling apart and it is somewhat beautiful. 588 00:27:05,280 --> 00:27:09,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, it is what beautiful it is. You know, you 589 00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:10,960 Speaker 3: hear about the pendulum swinging back, but. 590 00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:13,600 Speaker 2: In this particular case, it's more like a guillotine because 591 00:27:13,640 --> 00:27:16,720 Speaker 2: people have had so much of this crap shoved on 592 00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:19,080 Speaker 2: them and for a long time, people just go, well, 593 00:27:19,520 --> 00:27:20,560 Speaker 2: that can't be serious. 594 00:27:20,640 --> 00:27:22,520 Speaker 3: You know, I'm just going to kind of move along. 595 00:27:22,560 --> 00:27:24,400 Speaker 2: For a lot of us, for example, we would drive 596 00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:26,320 Speaker 2: by the local school and say, any other probably teach 597 00:27:26,320 --> 00:27:28,440 Speaker 2: them the same thing they taught us. You know, America 598 00:27:28,560 --> 00:27:31,800 Speaker 2: is a free place. Here's the Constitution. And instead they're 599 00:27:31,920 --> 00:27:35,200 Speaker 2: telling kids how awful America was and the mistakes we've made. 600 00:27:35,240 --> 00:27:37,600 Speaker 2: If we've made mistakes of the country, sure we have. 601 00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:40,439 Speaker 2: Have we done things that were reprehensible and could be 602 00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:41,680 Speaker 2: considered bad. 603 00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:42,800 Speaker 3: Of course we have We're a nation. 604 00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:45,840 Speaker 2: It's not perfect in its creation, but what is perfect 605 00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:47,960 Speaker 2: is our ability to correct it because we have the 606 00:27:47,960 --> 00:27:51,240 Speaker 2: greatest founding documents in the history of the world. The Constitution, 607 00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:53,760 Speaker 2: the Decoration of Independence, the Bill of Rights, all of 608 00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:56,240 Speaker 2: these things are the envy of the world, especially the 609 00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:58,359 Speaker 2: First Amendment of the United States Constitution, the envy of 610 00:27:58,359 --> 00:28:01,720 Speaker 2: the world. And when you hear democrats come out and say, 611 00:28:01,760 --> 00:28:04,680 Speaker 2: it's one thing when they attack gun rights, Okay, I see, 612 00:28:04,880 --> 00:28:07,840 Speaker 2: I can almost have some ampathy for where they're coming with. 613 00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:08,840 Speaker 3: Gun rights and so forth. 614 00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:11,359 Speaker 2: But when it comes to free speech and when it 615 00:28:11,359 --> 00:28:13,800 Speaker 2: comes to freedom of religion, and you see people like 616 00:28:13,880 --> 00:28:17,720 Speaker 2: Tim Walls say during the election, oh, free speech is 617 00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:21,399 Speaker 2: not absolute. Of course it is. Of course, it's absolute. 618 00:28:21,440 --> 00:28:23,800 Speaker 2: That's the point of America. Of course, me having the 619 00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:25,960 Speaker 2: ability to sit here and have a conversation with you, tutor, 620 00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:29,919 Speaker 2: is the foundational principle of this country. Because robust conversation 621 00:28:30,119 --> 00:28:33,159 Speaker 2: leads to everything else. And that's why America has been 622 00:28:33,200 --> 00:28:35,159 Speaker 2: able to fix itself on occasion over the last two 623 00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:38,280 Speaker 2: hundred and fifty years. Gab Or take when something's wrong. 624 00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:43,520 Speaker 2: We have robust, fierce conversations. Fierce conversation. Can you imagine 625 00:28:43,560 --> 00:28:45,320 Speaker 2: the Founders sitting there going, well, you can't say that 626 00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:48,280 Speaker 2: I'm offended? Well, and you didn't use my right pronouns. 627 00:28:48,320 --> 00:28:49,960 Speaker 3: I mean, really stay tuned. 628 00:28:49,960 --> 00:28:52,120 Speaker 1: We've got more coming up with Steve Gruber.

We just recently saw another school shooting. It's 657 00:30:31,320 --> 00:30:34,200 Speaker 1: totally devastating. I know how much your kids mean to you. 658 00:30:34,200 --> 00:30:36,800 Speaker 1: You know I feel the same. I think there are 659 00:30:36,920 --> 00:30:39,320 Speaker 1: very few parents that don't worry about it every day 660 00:30:39,360 --> 00:30:41,600 Speaker 1: when they send their kids to school, and I see. 661 00:30:42,120 --> 00:30:44,880 Speaker 1: I think Michigan is unique in the fact that in 662 00:30:44,920 --> 00:30:48,520 Speaker 1: this governor's term, we actually had two school shootings and 663 00:30:48,600 --> 00:30:52,960 Speaker 1: yet nothing has happened, and so I hear the calls 664 00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:55,840 Speaker 1: for gun control, and I hear what you're saying about 665 00:30:55,840 --> 00:30:59,800 Speaker 1: having empathy. However, it almost feels like that is a 666 00:30:59,800 --> 00:31:01,120 Speaker 1: shit shield to do nothing. 667 00:31:01,280 --> 00:31:04,120 Speaker 3: No, we can do better, Yes, we could do better. 668 00:31:04,360 --> 00:31:07,440 Speaker 1: This is again where Donald Trump will be totally different 669 00:31:07,440 --> 00:31:09,640 Speaker 1: than anybody else in the past, where he will bring 670 00:31:09,680 --> 00:31:13,120 Speaker 1: people together and sit down and say, look, stop the 671 00:31:13,160 --> 00:31:15,520 Speaker 1: conversation about we don't want our schools to look like 672 00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:18,680 Speaker 1: they are walking into a prison, that they're overly protected 673 00:31:19,040 --> 00:31:21,320 Speaker 1: at the end of the day. We need a solution 674 00:31:21,600 --> 00:31:23,560 Speaker 1: to make sure that kids go to school and come 675 00:31:23,560 --> 00:31:25,520 Speaker 1: home at the end of the day, and that if 676 00:31:25,560 --> 00:31:27,920 Speaker 1: part of that solution is that you have security there. 677 00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:30,200 Speaker 1: We need to be open to the conversation. The fact 678 00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:32,560 Speaker 1: that the conversation has to be shut down every time 679 00:31:32,880 --> 00:31:35,840 Speaker 1: because it's one way or no way for the Democrats 680 00:31:36,040 --> 00:31:36,800 Speaker 1: is belooney. 681 00:31:37,440 --> 00:31:39,080 Speaker 2: I agree with you, and let me give you some 682 00:31:39,120 --> 00:31:42,880 Speaker 2: examples of everything you just said is exactly right. The 683 00:31:42,920 --> 00:31:45,600 Speaker 2: police chief in Madison, Wisconsin, after they're shooting at the 684 00:31:45,680 --> 00:31:48,760 Speaker 2: Christian school was asked about metal detectors. No, we don't 685 00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:51,240 Speaker 2: have metal detectors here. We shouldn't have metal detectors. We 686 00:31:51,240 --> 00:31:53,360 Speaker 2: shouldn't have metal detectors in schools. Schools should be a 687 00:31:53,400 --> 00:31:55,960 Speaker 2: safe place. Well, I agree with his sentiment. Schools should 688 00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:57,840 Speaker 2: be a safe place. They've proven over. 689 00:31:57,720 --> 00:32:00,920 Speaker 3: The last twenty five years they're not all right. 690 00:32:00,960 --> 00:32:03,760 Speaker 2: They've proven that since nineteen eighty nine in what happened 691 00:32:03,760 --> 00:32:06,680 Speaker 2: in Colorado. So here are some solutions. First of all, 692 00:32:06,680 --> 00:32:09,320 Speaker 2: there's about a trillion dollars in unspent COVID money floating 693 00:32:09,320 --> 00:32:11,440 Speaker 2: around out there. A trillion dollars, and so what are 694 00:32:11,480 --> 00:32:14,040 Speaker 2: these governments doing pushing real hard to spend the money. 695 00:32:13,840 --> 00:32:16,800 Speaker 3: As fast as possible. Here's an idea. Take that trillion 696 00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:17,880 Speaker 3: dollars and spend it on the kids. 697 00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:20,040 Speaker 2: How do you do that? Special resource officers. There's about 698 00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:24,320 Speaker 2: eighty thousand schools in America. I believe about eighty thousand schools. 699 00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:28,440 Speaker 2: Put a new resource officer in every single school. Special 700 00:32:28,440 --> 00:32:31,120 Speaker 2: resource officer in eighty thousand schools pay one hundred grand 701 00:32:31,120 --> 00:32:35,440 Speaker 2: a yearor whatever the local wages pay them. Secondly, you 702 00:32:35,480 --> 00:32:38,480 Speaker 2: can have AI AI. There's these great new devices from 703 00:32:38,520 --> 00:32:41,640 Speaker 2: AI where the kids can be scanned as they're walking 704 00:32:41,680 --> 00:32:44,400 Speaker 2: into schools. They're fling into school that will detect and 705 00:32:44,480 --> 00:32:46,200 Speaker 2: pinpoint all that looks like a weapon. 706 00:32:46,280 --> 00:32:48,560 Speaker 3: Check that kid, right, it looks like a weapon in 707 00:32:48,600 --> 00:32:49,800 Speaker 3: that backpack. Check that backpack. 708 00:32:49,840 --> 00:32:52,440 Speaker 2: There are non invasive ways to find out if there's 709 00:32:52,480 --> 00:32:55,040 Speaker 2: weapons coming into your school. And here's another point, tutor. 710 00:32:55,600 --> 00:32:59,080 Speaker 2: Detroit Public Schools, as an easy example, has its own 711 00:32:59,080 --> 00:33:02,760 Speaker 2: police department. Going into Detroit Public schools, you see police 712 00:33:02,800 --> 00:33:03,719 Speaker 2: officers in the halls. 713 00:33:03,920 --> 00:33:06,000 Speaker 3: Same thing in Cleveland and New York and. 714 00:33:06,000 --> 00:33:08,120 Speaker 2: Miami and all over this country and any big city, 715 00:33:08,160 --> 00:33:12,280 Speaker 2: any big city, high school, middle school, elementary school has officers. 716 00:33:12,560 --> 00:33:15,000 Speaker 2: How many school shootings have been at all those places. 717 00:33:15,800 --> 00:33:16,040 Speaker 3: Zero. 718 00:33:16,840 --> 00:33:18,680 Speaker 2: There's not going to be a mass public shooting in 719 00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:20,560 Speaker 2: Detroit Public schools today because they. 720 00:33:20,480 --> 00:33:22,920 Speaker 3: All have police officers on campus. That's number one. 721 00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:26,480 Speaker 2: Number two, there are other schools in this country that 722 00:33:26,600 --> 00:33:29,520 Speaker 2: allow the faculty and staff to carry conceal people that 723 00:33:29,560 --> 00:33:31,120 Speaker 2: want to do it. Don't force anybody to do it, 724 00:33:31,160 --> 00:33:33,240 Speaker 2: but people that have concealed kerry permits some places like 725 00:33:33,640 --> 00:33:37,360 Speaker 2: Texas or Tennessee or Kentucky or Michigan can carry if 726 00:33:37,440 --> 00:33:39,520 Speaker 2: they're so incline and they get the blessing. 727 00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:40,040 Speaker 3: Of the school district. 728 00:33:40,120 --> 00:33:44,160 Speaker 2: There has never been a school shooting at any school 729 00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:47,000 Speaker 2: in America where the faculty and staff are allowed to 730 00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:49,360 Speaker 2: carry conceal That not only that, there's not overmund single 731 00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:52,960 Speaker 2: shooting of any kind at any school in America where 732 00:33:52,960 --> 00:33:55,760 Speaker 2: the faculty or staff are allowed to carry concealed. 733 00:33:55,520 --> 00:33:57,120 Speaker 3: That's a mathematical fact. 734 00:33:57,480 --> 00:33:59,600 Speaker 2: So for Democrats to sit there and tell me, well, 735 00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:01,320 Speaker 2: we can't anything about there are plenty of things we 736 00:34:01,320 --> 00:34:04,560 Speaker 2: can do, special resource officers, concealed carry for staff and 737 00:34:04,600 --> 00:34:07,200 Speaker 2: faculty that want to do it, and pass whatever background 738 00:34:07,280 --> 00:34:09,000 Speaker 2: checks and requirements we put in front of them. 739 00:34:09,040 --> 00:34:11,200 Speaker 3: Okay, fine, but the fact of the matter is we 740 00:34:11,280 --> 00:34:12,040 Speaker 3: can do better. 741 00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:15,359 Speaker 2: We don't have to send our kids into into you know, 742 00:34:15,480 --> 00:34:18,600 Speaker 2: no gun zones, which are you know, free shooting zones. Oftentimes, 743 00:34:18,920 --> 00:34:20,719 Speaker 2: you know, a gun free zone turns out to be 744 00:34:20,760 --> 00:34:23,759 Speaker 2: a deadly place because they know that they're not going 745 00:34:23,760 --> 00:34:24,239 Speaker 2: to get shot. 746 00:34:24,440 --> 00:34:25,440 Speaker 3: And we see this. 747 00:34:25,560 --> 00:34:28,960 Speaker 2: And by the way, I am sick and tired of 748 00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:32,239 Speaker 2: these manifestos. I don't care about your manifesto. You wouldn't shot. 749 00:34:32,400 --> 00:34:35,399 Speaker 1: P's just making people want to do it. Like, it's 750 00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:37,839 Speaker 1: interesting that you bring that up, because I don't think 751 00:34:37,840 --> 00:34:39,719 Speaker 1: that we had really considered the fact that when you 752 00:34:39,760 --> 00:34:42,719 Speaker 1: glorify the manifesto. Then you have the copycat who wants 753 00:34:42,760 --> 00:34:44,799 Speaker 1: to also have their manifesto out there. 754 00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:49,239 Speaker 2: You know, I don't care about Ted Kazinski's manifesto, the 755 00:34:49,360 --> 00:34:52,960 Speaker 2: unibomber and every manifesto said, I don't care what you think. 756 00:34:52,960 --> 00:34:55,359 Speaker 2: You went and shot children. What you have to say 757 00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:57,880 Speaker 2: about anything in the world is completely irrelevant. You shot 758 00:34:58,120 --> 00:35:01,719 Speaker 2: an executive in the back on the streets of Manhattan. 759 00:35:01,880 --> 00:35:03,960 Speaker 3: I have nothing to learn from you. Nothing. 760 00:35:04,239 --> 00:35:08,160 Speaker 1: I'd rather see your toxicology report than your manifesto bingo. 761 00:35:08,120 --> 00:35:08,880 Speaker 3: What drugs you on? 762 00:35:09,400 --> 00:35:12,239 Speaker 2: Which brings us back to the shooting in Wisconsin. There's 763 00:35:12,239 --> 00:35:17,560 Speaker 2: some question about the police that wouldn't say boy girl, 764 00:35:17,719 --> 00:35:20,239 Speaker 2: oh you know they waited twenty fours. We can't tell 765 00:35:20,239 --> 00:35:23,680 Speaker 2: you the gender of the individual. Really, too much of 766 00:35:23,680 --> 00:35:25,799 Speaker 2: that going on, too too much of that going on. 767 00:35:25,880 --> 00:35:28,480 Speaker 1: And I think that goes to what are these And 768 00:35:28,520 --> 00:35:30,440 Speaker 1: I think that's something RFK will get to. What are 769 00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:34,200 Speaker 1: these medications? Are kiss over medicated? What are the medications doing? 770 00:35:34,440 --> 00:35:36,399 Speaker 1: But you've brought up an interesting point. So you brought 771 00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:38,560 Speaker 1: up the point of kids can come in and get scanned. 772 00:35:38,600 --> 00:35:41,440 Speaker 1: So I went to WESCO this morning and I could 773 00:35:41,480 --> 00:35:44,400 Speaker 1: literally just put all of my food on the counter, 774 00:35:44,760 --> 00:35:47,400 Speaker 1: and it told me how much it was. Nobody told me. 775 00:35:47,560 --> 00:35:50,480 Speaker 1: The computer told me. It looked at it, it saw it, 776 00:35:50,480 --> 00:35:52,920 Speaker 1: it calculates it. I pay. There doesn't have to be 777 00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:55,880 Speaker 1: anybody there. But my point is a lot of parents 778 00:35:55,920 --> 00:35:57,720 Speaker 1: will say to me, I don't want my kids walking 779 00:35:57,760 --> 00:36:00,480 Speaker 1: through that because I want them to have privacy. I 780 00:36:00,480 --> 00:36:02,800 Speaker 1: think that there's a negotiation there. You want them alive 781 00:36:03,120 --> 00:36:05,439 Speaker 1: and how much privacy do you need your kid under 782 00:36:05,440 --> 00:36:07,640 Speaker 1: eighteen to have in their backpack. I hope they don't 783 00:36:07,640 --> 00:36:09,759 Speaker 1: have anything you don't want the school to. 784 00:36:09,760 --> 00:36:11,680 Speaker 2: Know about, right, I want them to have a future. 785 00:36:11,760 --> 00:36:14,200 Speaker 2: Privacy is fine, but a future is probably more important. 786 00:36:14,239 --> 00:36:17,080 Speaker 2: Now having said that, I'm not willing to give up 787 00:36:17,080 --> 00:36:20,000 Speaker 2: all privacy and all liberty and all that, but for 788 00:36:20,080 --> 00:36:23,799 Speaker 2: kids at school that have obviously become a target for 789 00:36:23,920 --> 00:36:28,680 Speaker 2: these deranged killers, for these monsters to attack, we need 790 00:36:28,719 --> 00:36:31,440 Speaker 2: to do something, and we can do better. Concealed carry 791 00:36:31,560 --> 00:36:34,680 Speaker 2: Social Resource officers AI. There's a variety of things that 792 00:36:34,680 --> 00:36:36,400 Speaker 2: can be done to make the schools safer, and we 793 00:36:36,480 --> 00:36:38,040 Speaker 2: have the resources right. 794 00:36:37,920 --> 00:36:39,839 Speaker 3: Now to do it if we don't squander it on. 795 00:36:39,800 --> 00:36:43,080 Speaker 2: Silly things like swimming pools and football fields. You can 796 00:36:43,160 --> 00:36:45,200 Speaker 2: have those things later. Let's make sure the schools are 797 00:36:45,239 --> 00:36:48,960 Speaker 2: safe first. Cricket field cricket field, yeah, I don't need 798 00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:52,239 Speaker 2: any of that stuff, soccer pitch, don't need that. What 799 00:36:52,280 --> 00:36:54,279 Speaker 2: we need is to make sure that all of our 800 00:36:54,360 --> 00:36:56,600 Speaker 2: kids are protected. And that's in public and private schools. 801 00:36:56,640 --> 00:36:58,399 Speaker 2: By the way, a lot of private schools already have. 802 00:37:00,000 --> 00:37:00,520 Speaker 3: Already. Look. 803 00:37:01,040 --> 00:37:02,799 Speaker 2: I go to a big church not far from my house. 804 00:37:02,840 --> 00:37:05,080 Speaker 2: On occasion, there's a couple people at the front door. 805 00:37:05,239 --> 00:37:09,480 Speaker 3: I know they're armed. I don't do I do you 806 00:37:09,520 --> 00:37:10,799 Speaker 3: know temple of bill. 807 00:37:10,920 --> 00:37:15,399 Speaker 1: Wasn't there recently a bill from the legislature where they're 808 00:37:15,400 --> 00:37:18,000 Speaker 1: trying to say you can't take firearms into a church. 809 00:37:18,120 --> 00:37:22,200 Speaker 1: There's I swear they were. There was something crazy about that. 810 00:37:22,520 --> 00:37:24,919 Speaker 1: As the pastor, how he feels, I mean, when you're 811 00:37:24,960 --> 00:37:27,120 Speaker 1: the target, you might feel a little bit differently. But 812 00:37:27,400 --> 00:37:29,719 Speaker 1: there's just too much government control. I think Doze is 813 00:37:29,800 --> 00:37:31,319 Speaker 1: very interesting. I mean, we could go on and on, 814 00:37:31,360 --> 00:37:33,560 Speaker 1: because I do think that there needs to be a 815 00:37:33,680 --> 00:37:36,960 Speaker 1: Doge in every state. You talked about all the money spent. 816 00:37:37,360 --> 00:37:40,000 Speaker 1: We have spent a massive amount of money on special 817 00:37:40,040 --> 00:37:44,840 Speaker 1: interests and donors projects, and not ended up with secure schools. 818 00:37:44,960 --> 00:37:47,239 Speaker 1: We cut the school budget, we cut money from the 819 00:37:47,280 --> 00:37:49,600 Speaker 1: teacher's pension. I mean, this year has been a total 820 00:37:49,640 --> 00:37:52,200 Speaker 1: disaster for Michigan when it comes to students and teachers. 821 00:37:52,280 --> 00:37:53,239 Speaker 1: We got to get back from that. 822 00:37:53,320 --> 00:37:55,600 Speaker 3: I just saw this story. He probably saw it too. 823 00:37:56,600 --> 00:37:59,680 Speaker 2: Percent of the teachers in Michigan are graded as being 824 00:38:00,239 --> 00:38:03,880 Speaker 2: excellent or whatever. The two top rankings are nine nine 825 00:38:03,880 --> 00:38:05,759 Speaker 2: percent of they're great teachers, and you have forty percent 826 00:38:05,800 --> 00:38:08,120 Speaker 2: of our third graders can't read. How come we have 827 00:38:08,200 --> 00:38:10,160 Speaker 2: ninety nine percent of the teachers, you know, at the 828 00:38:10,200 --> 00:38:13,640 Speaker 2: top of the scale for excellence in the classroom and 829 00:38:13,719 --> 00:38:15,759 Speaker 2: forty percent of our kids can't read. And it gets worse, 830 00:38:15,800 --> 00:38:17,960 Speaker 2: as you can imagine when you go to certain districts, 831 00:38:17,960 --> 00:38:21,000 Speaker 2: and yet the teachers are great, apparently all of them well. 832 00:38:21,040 --> 00:38:23,480 Speaker 1: And they just said that charter schools have to come 833 00:38:23,480 --> 00:38:26,560 Speaker 1: out and expose how they're spending all of their money. 834 00:38:26,640 --> 00:38:28,160 Speaker 1: You know what I'd like to see. I'd like to 835 00:38:28,160 --> 00:38:31,160 Speaker 1: see the charter schools that have great reading scores expose 836 00:38:31,239 --> 00:38:32,759 Speaker 1: how they taught them how to read, so that we 837 00:38:32,800 --> 00:38:35,200 Speaker 1: can take that to the public public schools. Because I 838 00:38:35,320 --> 00:38:37,760 Speaker 1: want every teacher to have a great score. I want 839 00:38:37,760 --> 00:38:39,840 Speaker 1: that to be the case. I'm a public school student. 840 00:38:40,000 --> 00:38:41,799 Speaker 1: I want all of these kids to have a chance, 841 00:38:41,840 --> 00:38:44,480 Speaker 1: because the minute a kid gets to fourth grade without 842 00:38:44,480 --> 00:38:47,160 Speaker 1: being able to read, you have sealed their future and 843 00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:49,799 Speaker 1: it's not good. And yet we don't talk about that. 844 00:38:50,120 --> 00:38:52,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, my mother was a fifth grade school teacher for 845 00:38:52,320 --> 00:38:53,799 Speaker 2: thirty two years something like that. 846 00:38:54,120 --> 00:38:55,600 Speaker 3: In the summers. I've told people this story. 847 00:38:55,760 --> 00:38:58,719 Speaker 2: During the summer vacation, I would come down from my 848 00:38:58,800 --> 00:39:02,040 Speaker 2: bedroom and I'd often find some kid in my house. 849 00:39:02,160 --> 00:39:04,040 Speaker 2: My mother was sitting there, some kid I didn't know, 850 00:39:04,320 --> 00:39:05,880 Speaker 2: and she'd be sitting there teaching them to read. You 851 00:39:05,880 --> 00:39:07,239 Speaker 2: guy said, why do you do that? Because she said, 852 00:39:07,239 --> 00:39:08,919 Speaker 2: if I could teach this kid to read, I'll save 853 00:39:09,000 --> 00:39:11,640 Speaker 2: their life. And she was right true, And that's how 854 00:39:11,800 --> 00:39:13,880 Speaker 2: she never charged anybody for it. She taught fifth grade. 855 00:39:13,920 --> 00:39:16,200 Speaker 2: Literacy was her big driving for us, and so for me, 856 00:39:16,239 --> 00:39:18,319 Speaker 2: it's always been a cornerstone of my life as well. 857 00:39:18,360 --> 00:39:20,319 Speaker 2: So when I see that forty percent of the third 858 00:39:20,320 --> 00:39:23,000 Speaker 2: graders in Michigan can't read, I'm like, how is that possible? 859 00:39:23,080 --> 00:39:26,160 Speaker 2: And worse, how do we give all these teachers an 860 00:39:26,200 --> 00:39:29,880 Speaker 2: a when of the kids are failing. That means you 861 00:39:29,920 --> 00:39:32,319 Speaker 2: only have sixty percent, which means you're basically on the 862 00:39:32,440 --> 00:39:35,560 Speaker 2: on the cousp of an f right, it's sixty percent success, right, 863 00:39:35,600 --> 00:39:38,640 Speaker 2: You're you're you're failing, and you're failing our kids, and 864 00:39:38,640 --> 00:39:40,640 Speaker 2: you're failing the next generation. How are these people going 865 00:39:40,680 --> 00:39:42,840 Speaker 2: to have jobs or be productive, or have families or 866 00:39:42,880 --> 00:39:45,440 Speaker 2: have happiness or any of that if they can't go 867 00:39:45,520 --> 00:39:48,520 Speaker 2: out and have a job and be successful. 868 00:39:48,560 --> 00:39:51,959 Speaker 3: I mean, what happens. It becomes an ease in jail. 869 00:39:52,080 --> 00:39:55,000 Speaker 1: That's what I mean. It's a known quantity. We know 870 00:39:55,040 --> 00:39:57,040 Speaker 1: what happens. If you can't read, you go to jail. 871 00:39:57,040 --> 00:39:59,640 Speaker 1: But Gretchen Wimmer's feeding the rich kids lunch. So that's good. 872 00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:02,839 Speaker 1: At least we've got that. I mean, that's her big 873 00:40:02,920 --> 00:40:05,359 Speaker 1: that's she blasts out out every day. I'm like, how 874 00:40:05,360 --> 00:40:07,120 Speaker 1: about we teach kids to read and we feed the 875 00:40:07,160 --> 00:40:09,600 Speaker 1: kids lunch who can't afford lunch. Maybe we take the 876 00:40:09,680 --> 00:40:11,839 Speaker 1: money for the people that need the money, We get 877 00:40:11,840 --> 00:40:14,359 Speaker 1: it to the resources, to the right place. That's just 878 00:40:14,360 --> 00:40:17,320 Speaker 1: not how they think we could. Honestly, we should do 879 00:40:17,360 --> 00:40:19,680 Speaker 1: a show together sometime. I mean, we're really good at this, 880 00:40:19,800 --> 00:40:20,600 Speaker 1: pretty good idea. 881 00:40:20,760 --> 00:40:22,799 Speaker 3: I like that idea. You can invite me anytime you want. 882 00:40:22,800 --> 00:40:24,440 Speaker 2: I'll sit here and Shay, I mean you and I 883 00:40:24,520 --> 00:40:26,719 Speaker 2: we've worked together for what two three years, whatever it was, 884 00:40:27,640 --> 00:40:29,480 Speaker 2: And like I said, we sat there together in January 885 00:40:29,520 --> 00:40:32,680 Speaker 2: the sixth, you and I taking that in like drinking 886 00:40:32,719 --> 00:40:36,200 Speaker 2: from a fire hose, trying to keep track of everything. 887 00:40:36,520 --> 00:40:37,840 Speaker 3: And so we've seen how it works. 888 00:40:38,160 --> 00:40:40,280 Speaker 2: You know how it works is somebody running for office 889 00:40:40,320 --> 00:40:42,200 Speaker 2: at a high level, because running for governor's running for 890 00:40:42,239 --> 00:40:45,120 Speaker 2: office at a high level. We've been in to see 891 00:40:45,160 --> 00:40:47,719 Speaker 2: Donald Trump. I've been in the Oval office, We've been places, 892 00:40:48,080 --> 00:40:50,279 Speaker 2: and there's a lot to share with people. But I 893 00:40:50,280 --> 00:40:51,839 Speaker 2: think it all goes back to being honest. I think 894 00:40:51,880 --> 00:40:54,560 Speaker 2: that's why Donald Trump's working right now, because people see 895 00:40:54,640 --> 00:40:56,879 Speaker 2: him as the genuine article and we can have real 896 00:40:56,880 --> 00:41:00,000 Speaker 2: conversations here about protecting children, or closing the border, or 897 00:41:00,040 --> 00:41:04,000 Speaker 2: fixing the economy or any of it right, because these 898 00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:06,279 Speaker 2: are all conversations we have to have because I think 899 00:41:06,320 --> 00:41:09,040 Speaker 2: for the last four years, our priorities have been completely 900 00:41:09,080 --> 00:41:11,640 Speaker 2: out of whack. You know, when we're worried about whether 901 00:41:11,680 --> 00:41:14,319 Speaker 2: a boy can run the girl's track team and whether 902 00:41:14,400 --> 00:41:16,319 Speaker 2: or not we should allow one hundred thousand people in 903 00:41:16,320 --> 00:41:17,920 Speaker 2: this month or two hundred thousand, and we're not going 904 00:41:17,960 --> 00:41:19,279 Speaker 2: to vet them. We're just gonna give a little app 905 00:41:19,280 --> 00:41:20,960 Speaker 2: on their phone and then three thousand dollars on their 906 00:41:21,040 --> 00:41:21,640 Speaker 2: debit card. 907 00:41:22,040 --> 00:41:24,640 Speaker 3: Something might be wrong with our priority. And I am, 908 00:41:24,840 --> 00:41:26,000 Speaker 3: I am. 909 00:41:26,320 --> 00:41:30,080 Speaker 2: I pray to God that Donald Trump stays the course. 910 00:41:30,239 --> 00:41:32,919 Speaker 2: I think he's going to. I feel very optimistic right now, 911 00:41:33,040 --> 00:41:36,640 Speaker 2: very very optimistic about what's going to happen come January 912 00:41:36,960 --> 00:41:39,440 Speaker 2: and for the next four years. And I hope we 913 00:41:39,480 --> 00:41:43,000 Speaker 2: stay this course because America needs it. Everybody needs it. 914 00:41:43,440 --> 00:41:46,320 Speaker 2: And look, the world needs America and they need a 915 00:41:46,360 --> 00:41:48,480 Speaker 2: strong America. And that's why Donald Trump is so wonderful. 916 00:41:48,840 --> 00:41:51,239 Speaker 1: Yeah, and that's why we saw at the Notre Dame 917 00:41:51,320 --> 00:41:53,959 Speaker 1: all of the people coming to shake his hand. I mean, gosh, 918 00:41:54,040 --> 00:41:56,239 Speaker 1: even Jilly was looking at him with the love eyes, 919 00:41:56,280 --> 00:41:57,480 Speaker 1: so I think. 920 00:41:57,640 --> 00:42:00,920 Speaker 3: She gave him the googly eyes give the googly guys. 921 00:42:01,160 --> 00:42:02,880 Speaker 2: I think I think Justin Trudeau looked at him with 922 00:42:02,880 --> 00:42:06,200 Speaker 2: complete terror when he walked into Marrow Lago. Justin Trudeau, 923 00:42:06,400 --> 00:42:08,080 Speaker 2: I've been told about the terrist apparent. I don't know 924 00:42:08,120 --> 00:42:10,040 Speaker 2: if he's going to make it through the next couple 925 00:42:10,040 --> 00:42:12,080 Speaker 2: of days up there north of the border. His did 926 00:42:12,120 --> 00:42:15,720 Speaker 2: you know his approval ranger twenty six percent, No surprise, 927 00:42:15,880 --> 00:42:17,000 Speaker 2: twenty six percent. 928 00:42:17,040 --> 00:42:18,960 Speaker 3: A Michigan man will be the ambassador up there for 929 00:42:19,000 --> 00:42:19,520 Speaker 3: the new. 930 00:42:19,960 --> 00:42:23,200 Speaker 1: Yes, that's right, that's right.
