Speaker 1: This is Buck's first thoughts. The news you need to
Speaker 1: get for your day in forty five minutes. Make sure
Speaker 1: you subscribe on the iHeart app or wherever you get
Speaker 1: your podcasts. A goodbye, we love you. We will be
Speaker 1: back in some form. And again, I wanted just in living.
Speaker 1: I want to thank our Vice President Mike Pence and Karen.
Speaker 1: I want to thank Congress because we really worked well
Speaker 1: with Congress. At least certain elements in Congress, but we
Speaker 1: really did. We've gotten so much done that nobody thought
Speaker 1: would be possible. But I do want to thank Congress.
Speaker 1: I don't want to thank all of the great people
Speaker 1: of Washington, DC, all of the people that we worked
Speaker 1: with to put this miracle together. So have a good life.
Speaker 1: We will see you soon. Thank you, Thank you very much.
Speaker 1: It is the end of an era and the beginning
Speaker 1: of a new one. Donald Trump no longer President of
Speaker 1: the United States. Joe Biden sworn in number forty six.
Speaker 1: Getting ready for what this means. You should brace now
Speaker 1: for the Democrat left backlash. It has been building up
Speaker 1: for four years. I wish I could tell you that
Speaker 1: I thought this moment in time would be one of
Speaker 1: national unity, of coming together of sanity back in government.
Speaker 1: But you wouldn't even believe that if somebody said it
Speaker 1: to you. Do you think that Trump derangement syndrome just
Speaker 1: goes away now that Trump is no longer president. Now
Speaker 1: it's just Democrat derangement syndrome. Now, this is settling scores,
Speaker 1: it's silencing opposing voices, it is crushing descent. That's what
Speaker 1: they're really planning here. That's really the idea behind all
Speaker 1: of this. They have no interest in a third way.
Speaker 1: They have no interest in finding a triangulation, a middle ground,
Speaker 1: a halfway mark. No, they have control of the House
Speaker 1: of the Senate and of the presidency. And this means
Speaker 1: that we are now living in a country that's going
Speaker 1: to feel very different for at least some time. We
Speaker 1: have to be prepared for what this means, for our
Speaker 1: ability to even speak out against this. You are now
Speaker 1: going to have ninety five percent of the journalistic establishment
Speaker 1: completely in the pocket of a presidential administration. They warned
Speaker 1: us for four years, they screamed and cried about tyranny
Speaker 1: from Trump, when every journalist who opposed him got richer,
Speaker 1: more famous, more time on TV, which is what they
Speaker 1: really want. Those three things. Every journalist who spoke out
Speaker 1: against him was advancing their careers. And we were supposed
Speaker 1: to think that somehow Trump was so much of the
Speaker 1: establishment and so much of the swamp arrayed against it,
Speaker 1: was going to seize control, authoritarian power forever. That's what
Speaker 1: they told us. But that didn't happen, did it. Now.
Speaker 1: There was no seizure of power. There was just the
Speaker 1: peaceful transition that we've seen. And now we have a
Speaker 1: Joe Biden administration that is going to have no pushback
Speaker 1: from the people whose jobs are supposed to be speaking
Speaker 1: truth to power. Dissent is no longer patriotic. You can
Speaker 1: be assured of that. In fact, if you disagree with
Speaker 1: the Biden administration, you will be called things like a
Speaker 1: COVID denier. You'll be called a white supremacist, a racist,
Speaker 1: a mask denier, an insurrectionist. Even they'll throw everything they
Speaker 1: can at you, and you have to be prepared for that.
Speaker 1: This is now the future of this country. This is
Speaker 1: where we are. I'm happy to hear that President Trump
Speaker 1: is planning to continue to spread the message and in
Speaker 1: some ways may even grow even more powerful in immedia
Speaker 1: sense than he has been up to this point depends
Speaker 1: on what choices that what choices he makes. Here he
Speaker 1: is saying he's always going to be in the fight
Speaker 1: for us. Play five. I will always fight for you.
Speaker 1: I will be watching, I will be listening, and I
Speaker 1: will tell you that the future of this country has
Speaker 1: never been better. I wish the new administration great luck
Speaker 1: and great success. I think they'll have great success. They
Speaker 1: have the foundation to do something really spectacular. And again,
Speaker 1: we put it in a position like it's never been before,
Speaker 1: despite the worst plague to hit since I guess you'd say,
Speaker 1: nineteen seventeen, over one hundred years ago. And despite that,
Speaker 1: despite that, the things that we've done have been just incredible.
Speaker 1: And I couldn't have done done it without you. There
Speaker 1: will be no honeymoon between Trump supporters and this Biden administration.
Speaker 1: It will not exist. They won't allow it to. You've
Speaker 1: already been told that the price of your freedoms, the
Speaker 1: price of your rights, is submit or face the consequences.
Speaker 1: Submit or be d platformed, be boycotted, have your business destroyed,
Speaker 1: your reputation ruined. We are all now supposed to think
Speaker 1: that what Joe Biden, this almost eighty year old, middling
Speaker 1: mediocrity from Delaware is really going to be the guy
Speaker 1: that turns the whole country around. You look at the
Speaker 1: initial things that are being done here, the orders that
Speaker 1: he's putting out, and it's obviously meant to to erase
Speaker 1: what Trump had done as quickly as possible. So that's
Speaker 1: the problem with executive orders. They're only as good as
Speaker 1: long as that's the executive you've got. But I'm much
Speaker 1: more concerned about a culture now that has at its core,
Speaker 1: a political culture that has at its core not only
Speaker 1: are Trump supporters out of power and to be disdained,
Speaker 1: but they are enemies of the state. That's what the
Speaker 1: rhetoric in recent days has been Trump supporters, Trump voters.
Speaker 1: I'm not talking about a few specific radicals. Are a
Speaker 1: few specific crazies who have done bad and illegal things,
Speaker 1: and as we know, they exist on both sides of
Speaker 1: the aisle. And there's been a whole lot more of
Speaker 1: that from the left then there has been from the
Speaker 1: right in the last four years. But they will not
Speaker 1: view it that way. Of course, they will not agree
Speaker 1: with us that the left poses now a truth that
Speaker 1: threat of authoritarianism. Instead, what are they going to do?
Speaker 1: They're going to leverage the apparatus of the state to
Speaker 1: make sure that we can't even discuss what a not
Speaker 1: up for the job cognitively declining absurdity Joe Biden is
Speaker 1: and if you even bring this up, they're going to
Speaker 1: say that you're basically the equivalent of somebody who wants
Speaker 1: to overthrow the United States government. The way that they
Speaker 1: have approached this the spite you'll notice there's not a
Speaker 1: lot of happiness among Democrats. Here and there. You may
Speaker 1: see some celebration. I know today there's pomping circumstances, but
Speaker 1: what you're really seeing is a relief that they have
Speaker 1: that they can finally unleash their rage. The Democrat mindset
Speaker 1: now instead of being all happy and talking about what
Speaker 1: a great future we're all going to have now that
Speaker 1: the media is going to do some of that, to
Speaker 1: be sure, but the overwhelming feeling that they seem to
Speaker 1: be showing all the rest of us is like like
Speaker 1: a dog that has been on a leash and in
Speaker 1: a cage that is now let loose to go and
Speaker 1: bite whomever. They are angry about what has happened for
Speaker 1: the last four years. They are angry about all the
Speaker 1: terrible things that Trump did, and I wish we hadn't
Speaker 1: had the last three months we had of the Trump
Speaker 1: presidency because it has added a lot of field of
Speaker 1: the fire. It has made things much more difficult, at
Speaker 1: least in the short term, to continue on and support
Speaker 1: a MAGA agenda. I don't even know if that term
Speaker 1: will really be used anymore. People are talking about Trump
Speaker 1: is m without Trump, They're talking about who the future
Speaker 1: of the party may be. I don't believe that's where
Speaker 1: the conversation would be if we had not gone through
Speaker 1: the last three months the way that we had. Just
Speaker 1: remember this, at the end of the day, you are
Speaker 1: what you do and what you stand for, and that
Speaker 1: doesn't change because of who the president is. It doesn't
Speaker 1: change because the Democrats manage to squeak out of victory
Speaker 1: in the Senate or maintain their control under Nancy Pelosi
Speaker 1: in the House. They can't change who you are, what
Speaker 1: you stand for, or what you do. So just stick
Speaker 1: to your principles, be patriots, support those who share your
Speaker 1: values and care about the country in the way that
Speaker 1: you do, and be prepared for what's coming. This is
Speaker 1: not going to be pleasant. I would be lying to
Speaker 1: you if I've set otherwise. The Democrats are going to
Speaker 1: settle scores, They're going to make examples, they are going
Speaker 1: to unleash the wokeness on all of us. But we
Speaker 1: have been through worse and we will get to better times.
Speaker 1: Do not forget that today. And just when you can
Speaker 1: think back to those moments in twenty eighteen and twenty nineteen,
Speaker 1: when I would tell listeners of this show, this is
Speaker 1: about as good as it's going to get this country,
Speaker 1: enjoy it. I hope you savored those moments, because now
Speaker 1: we're on the other side of the equation. It's time
Speaker 1: to get ready, shields high. This is the Buck Sexton
Speaker 1: Show podcast. Follow Buck on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter. Seventy
Speaker 1: four million Americans ought not to be slandered based on
Speaker 1: the action of a couple thousand who participate in a
Speaker 1: violent mob at the capital two weeks ago. And because
Speaker 1: a violent mob attack the capital two weeks ago, that
Speaker 1: doesn't mean that they should have their view censored. It
Speaker 1: doesn't mean they should be at risk of losing their
Speaker 1: job or having their business boycotted, losing their slots and
Speaker 1: high schools or colleges that choose selectively doesn't mean that
Speaker 1: they should have to pay higher at taxes or open
Speaker 1: their borders or defund their police. That is crazy and
Speaker 1: it is a complete non secretary. But the Democrats realize
Speaker 1: that that agenda is unpopular. But they also have all
Speaker 1: the other commanding heights of our society, from the media,
Speaker 1: to education to entertainment in their corner. What those equal
Speaker 1: need with those seventy four million people who voted for
Speaker 1: the president voted for republicans need are Republicans and conservatives
Speaker 1: in the Congress, in the state legislatures to stand up
Speaker 1: for their rights. And I promise you I will do that,
Speaker 1: let's hope. So it's going to be on all of us. Now,
Speaker 1: that's what I think people are recognizing today. Trump is
Speaker 1: not going to swoop in and save us from the
Speaker 1: insane leftist stuff. Trump is not going to be the
Speaker 1: one who's just setting the national news agenda day in
Speaker 1: and day out. He won't be able to slap down
Speaker 1: the fake news with one tweet. Now, it's on all
Speaker 1: of us. Sure, he'll have a voice and continue to
Speaker 1: have a lot of people who support him. And but
Speaker 1: it's going to be different now you know that. I
Speaker 1: know that, and we are now as a as a
Speaker 1: movement of conservatives. We are now on our own effectively.
Speaker 1: I mean, we could come together, but I'm saying that
Speaker 1: we don't have a leader of the Republican Party at
Speaker 1: the current moment. We just have to continue to push
Speaker 1: and do everything that we can to hold back the
Speaker 1: torrent of madness that I think is going to descend
Speaker 1: upon the country. Remember, it's not only Trump derangement syndrome
Speaker 1: that we have to be aware of. It's also a
Speaker 1: year unlike any other in my lifetime and certainly in
Speaker 1: living memory, where we've gone through a global pandemic. People
Speaker 1: are angry. I'll even tell you I'm more short tempered
Speaker 1: than I have been in a long time, just because
Speaker 1: being in a very blue city in a very blue
Speaker 1: state over what's happened in the last twelve months has
Speaker 1: really shown that you will suffer if you let the
Speaker 1: authoritarian left run your life. You will suffer if they
Speaker 1: are in charge. And a lot of people, even if
Speaker 1: they like those policies, have recognized that we've just been
Speaker 1: through a miserable year with four hundred thousand COVID deaths,
Speaker 1: endless lockdowns, all this shifting advice and mandates about mitigation
Speaker 1: measures all this stuff. It's a lot of anger out there.
Speaker 1: I wish I could say that the Democrat push would
Speaker 1: be for one of of prosperity and just joy at
Speaker 1: what is their newfound power now. But I really do
Speaker 1: believe that vengeance is going to be much higher up
Speaker 1: on the mind of a lot of the political operatives,
Speaker 1: the senior administration officials. I hope I'm wrong. You know,
Speaker 1: there are some things where I can tell you straight up,
Speaker 1: my fondest wish is that what I'm telling you turns
Speaker 1: out to be entirely untrue that Democrats are the bigger men.
Speaker 1: So are we even allowed to say, oh, the bigger
Speaker 1: men are the bigger non gender specific, non binary, gender
Speaker 1: non specific people, the bigger that they're the bigger Homo sapiens.
Speaker 1: Is that what we're allowed? What are we to say?
Speaker 1: Get ready for a lot of that language policing, a
Speaker 1: lot of checking in on the loyalty of government officials
Speaker 1: at also asking more and more questions about who you
Speaker 1: voted for at whatever company you work for, because it's
Speaker 1: not that you were a Republican and voted for Donald Trump,
Speaker 1: it's wait, you supported the insurrectionist. Maybe you need to
Speaker 1: go talk to HR. Wait, you are a company that
Speaker 1: advertises on Fox News or a conservative network of some kind,
Speaker 1: maybe you need to be threatened with a boycott. You'll
Speaker 1: notice this didn't happen in twenty sixteen. When Trump came
Speaker 1: into office. It was all right, we got an agenda,
Speaker 1: let's go after it, let's do some things. It's got
Speaker 1: some taxes, get some executive orders going. But it wasn't
Speaker 1: a purge. Nobody really thought that Democrats were going to
Speaker 1: lose their livelihoods, their businesses, their freedoms. The First Amendment
Speaker 1: is under greater assault now that it has been in
Speaker 1: my lifetime. There are very intelligent people, very serious observers
Speaker 1: of American life, who were writing about a new war
Speaker 1: on terror against conservatives in this country and the expansion
Speaker 1: of the police state to encompass what is clearly not
Speaker 1: already criminal activity. Why would they be talking about this,
Speaker 1: Why would they be saying, we need to expand surveillance,
Speaker 1: we need to we need to look at legislation to
Speaker 1: address the address what exactly. Everything that happened at the
Speaker 1: Capitol Hill riot that should not have happened, was already
Speaker 1: very illegal, and people are facing very long criminal sentences.
Speaker 1: For it. So what exactly has to be addressed, You'll see,
Speaker 1: you'll see who's in charge. You'll see how the deep
Speaker 1: state now rises to the surface. It's been operating somewhat
Speaker 1: in the shadows for the last four years, but all
Speaker 1: of a sudden, now the people that are going to
Speaker 1: be calling the shots will be folks at the CIA
Speaker 1: and the FBI and the EPA and you name it,
Speaker 1: who think that climate change is an existential threat. And
Speaker 1: if you don't sign on to that, there's something wrong
Speaker 1: with you. Oh, you you can't be trusted. You don't
Speaker 1: believe that any public policy that we think is necessary
Speaker 1: to address the growing threat of climate change is inherently justified.
Speaker 1: You don't you're not down with that. I don't think
Speaker 1: we can trust you anymore. What's so fascinating, of course,
Speaker 1: is that the left has created this revisionist history. They
Speaker 1: always talk about McCarthyism. They forget that there were in
Speaker 1: fact communist penetrations of the government, and they were all Democrats.
Speaker 1: Just so you know, it was the Democrats that the
Speaker 1: communists found their fellow travelers, and it was not staunch
Speaker 1: patriotic right wingers. That was not how that happened. But
Speaker 1: they talk about it as though this was all just
Speaker 1: a fraud, this was all based in lies, when in
Speaker 1: truth there were all there were communist penetrations, including at
Speaker 1: a very high level Soviet penetrations of the United States government.
Speaker 1: And now they're going to do the great, the great
Speaker 1: Conservative scare, if you will, right, instead of a Red scare,
Speaker 1: the Maga scare. They're going to look to find ways
Speaker 1: to get rid of it because it was also the
Speaker 1: Trump culture. It was also those moments where all of
Speaker 1: a sudden, people felt like they had a hat to wear,
Speaker 1: a slogan to chant, and people around them who shared
Speaker 1: their beliefs and approach politics with them. Joy. If anything,
Speaker 1: that's one of the most powerful legacies of the four
Speaker 1: years of Trumpet office. But Democrats want to get rid
Speaker 1: of all of that now. They want to make America
Speaker 1: feel shameful for wanting to make America great. This is
Speaker 1: the Buck Sexton Show podcast. Join the conversation and message

Speaker 1: They read it on the show. The Trump presidency may
Speaker 1: be drying to a close, but the dysfunction, the corruption,
Speaker 1: the authoritarianism, and the moral rot Trump exposed within the
Speaker 1: GOPN and our system will remain and we can't just
Speaker 1: let it go. We got to fix it and we
Speaker 1: have to hold accountable to people responsible for it, from
Speaker 1: the top all the way down. Otherwise this four year
Speaker 1: long nightmare we've all lived through could very well happen again.
Speaker 1: Don't you think that if he pardons himself, Sonny, that
Speaker 1: admits that he's guilty, and then when the impeachment and
Speaker 1: the semmate comes up, what are they supposed to do
Speaker 1: with that? They have to convict him. He himself is
Speaker 1: saying I'm guilty, absolutely, absolutely, But his defense, I think,
Speaker 1: is going to be, well, this is a witch hunt.
Speaker 1: This is a witch hunt against me, so of course
Speaker 1: I have to try to pardon myself because everyone's out
Speaker 1: against against me. And guess what, seventy four million people
Speaker 1: are going to believe that because they've been brainwashed. Joy
Speaker 1: I really believe that they have been brainwashed by this
Speaker 1: misinformation campaign over the past four years. Can't you feel old?
Speaker 1: The healing and the unity? Oh, these Democrats they want
Speaker 1: to let bygones be bygones, don't they They want to
Speaker 1: just be friends now, They want to get along and
Speaker 1: everything's gonna be just fine. Not so much the idea
Speaker 1: that they're gonna hold people accountable. They're really sticking to
Speaker 1: this one, aren't they. And I think they're gonna they're
Speaker 1: gonna try. That just means vindictiveness. It means find your
Speaker 1: political enemies and make their lives difficult, make them miserable,
Speaker 1: do whatever you have to do to punish them for
Speaker 1: wrong think. Remember they're saying Trump is the authoritarian, they've
Speaker 1: had a peaceful trans transfer of power. Republicans are saying, Okay,
Speaker 1: Joe Biden's the president. We're not doing the Russias stole
Speaker 1: the election thing. That's what they did for four years.
Speaker 1: Republicans now said, all right, you know, Electoral College certified,
Speaker 1: it's done, it's over with. I know there was the
Speaker 1: right of Capitol Hill and it was awful, and we
Speaker 1: see now just how much the left is using that
Speaker 1: awful incident try to bash all Trump supporters. But now
Speaker 1: now we're we're where they said they wanted to be,
Speaker 1: with the Democrats in charge of everything, basically, and sure enough,
Speaker 1: instead of saying we're just gonna show you guys what
Speaker 1: good governance looks like, it's let's go find people who
Speaker 1: need to be punished. Let's blacklist them from jobs, Let's
Speaker 1: prevent them from being able to speak online. I mean
Speaker 1: the social media and the tech purge. I think it's
Speaker 1: only gonna get worse because now they've got cover from
Speaker 1: the federal government. Now they've got people at the very
Speaker 1: top of the government hierarchy. You're gonna say, yeah, that's
Speaker 1: how the First Amendment works. Crush people that you don't like. Great. Oh, oh,
Speaker 1: I'm sorry. Companies can do whatever they want. They say
Speaker 1: for this, but go bake that cake and write on
Speaker 1: it whatever. Whatever. The person who wants the cake tells
Speaker 1: you to write on it. You have to do that.
Speaker 1: If you have if you have to write there is
Speaker 1: no God. God is false, you have to write that
Speaker 1: on a birthday cake. You better do that or else.
Speaker 1: Oh I'm so oh that's a first to oh wait
Speaker 1: what Oh, companies or private individuals can't do whatever they
Speaker 1: want in their business. It turns out, isn't that interesting.
Speaker 1: It's not quite that clear. The expansion of the term
Speaker 1: insurrection now to include just saying things that the Democrats
Speaker 1: don't like. This will be abused. They're doing this for
Speaker 1: a reason. It's not just some catharsis because they have
Speaker 1: all this pent up, just this this bile. They're overflowing
Speaker 1: with it after four years of Trump. They can't help themselves.
Speaker 1: I mean, Sonny Houston. They're on the view saying Trump
Speaker 1: Trump supporters have been brainwashed. They just Democrats just voted
Speaker 1: for Joe Biden to be president. I don't care that
Speaker 1: he is president. He's a loser. We all know it.
Speaker 1: This is not an impressive person. This is not a
Speaker 1: person with leadership skills. This is a guy who just
Speaker 1: showed up and did what he had to do to
Speaker 1: play the system and contribute very little for a very
Speaker 1: long time. But they could make him president because he
Speaker 1: wasn't what the Democrat Party really is. Don't you see?
Speaker 1: The whole thing is a head fake. Joe Biden isn't
Speaker 1: really symbolic of what the Democrat Party's all about. Now.
Speaker 1: He's not woke, he's not leftist, he's not radical, but
Speaker 1: he's also not really anything. So he'll do whatever the
Speaker 1: woke leftist want him to where and when he can,
Speaker 1: and he gives he gives the corporations less anxiety because
Speaker 1: big tech and big companies are gonna be just fine
Speaker 1: under a Biden presidency. Oh here, Amazon, Google. You know,
Speaker 1: if you're you're somebody that's you know, that's a that's
Speaker 1: a winning proposition. I'm sure if you've got investments in
Speaker 1: some of these major companies out there under a Biden presidency,
Speaker 1: they're gonna do just fine. Small business has been decimated
Speaker 1: by the pandemic and the lockdowns that Democrats have largely pushed,
Speaker 1: and it's not going to come back because small business
Speaker 1: is too autonomous. There's too much liberty involved in somebody
Speaker 1: running their own commercial venture, providing products or services to
Speaker 1: a public that wants them in a lawful and productive
Speaker 1: Fashion's that they don't. They want megacorporations that can have
Speaker 1: D and I specialists and on every floor of the building.
Speaker 1: They're gonna want HR departments to be the shock troops
Speaker 1: of wokeism, and they're gonna get it. They're going to
Speaker 1: pass federal legislation and executive orders that create these new
Speaker 1: concepts around equity. You know what equity is. We tell
Speaker 1: people what they get and we tell other people what
Speaker 1: they don't get based on ethnicity, gender, skin color, you
Speaker 1: name it. That's right, that's what we're definitely heading for.
Speaker 1: Never mind of course, the likelihood here that we may
Speaker 1: have a major challenge facing a Biden administration that has
Speaker 1: Joe Biden in charge. This guy just isn't up for
Speaker 1: the job. And I know that he won, or you know,
Speaker 1: I know that he's president, and he's not up for
Speaker 1: the job. So what does that mean? Make note now
Speaker 1: of how journalists and the the corporate media will sneer,
Speaker 1: They will sneer at anyone who even raises the prospect
Speaker 1: of Kamala Harris taking over for Joe Biden. And yet
Speaker 1: I think we all understand that there's a very serious
Speaker 1: possibility just based on age. It's this isn't some outlandish theory.
Speaker 1: I mean, the guy is gonna be eighty by the
Speaker 1: mid terms, you know, so we're gonna have somebody who's
Speaker 1: getting into his early and then mid eighties, especially if
Speaker 1: he goes into a second term. Come on, now, Kamal
Speaker 1: at some point just gets to be president. Isn't that interesting?
Speaker 1: Isn't that a fascin way for this to continue on?
Speaker 1: So I think that we have to just take a
Speaker 1: moment here, take a breather, and recognize that we are
Speaker 1: going to be dealing with a very a very emboldened
Speaker 1: and aggressive Democrat left now and they could you know,
Speaker 1: they have an opportunity here. It's all been set up,
Speaker 1: and the President really alluded to this in his closing remarks.
Speaker 1: With the vaccines already being distributed, with the worst of
Speaker 1: winter now pretty much behind us, we're going to be
Speaker 1: entering a phase here where things could be really good
Speaker 1: for the country. You have the reopening of you have
Speaker 1: the return of basic freedoms, but no, what you're going
Speaker 1: to get is more mask mania, lockdown, lockdown demands and
Speaker 1: then only on their timetable and their schedule. Only when
Speaker 1: the Democrats say so can you start to have aspects
Speaker 1: of your life back. They like this control. Oh, and
Speaker 1: they're going to reassert it for other things too. You
Speaker 1: don't think that they believe that climate emergency is enough
Speaker 1: to violate the Constitution, don't You don't think they believe
Speaker 1: that there will be ways for them to expand on
Speaker 1: the de dictatorial powers that Democrat governors like Cuomo and
Speaker 1: Newsom have taken into their hands here because of an emergency.
Speaker 1: But you think this is the only emergency, Just wait
Speaker 1: till they declare a gun violence emergency. And they did,
Speaker 1: and they say there's a mandatory statewide buy back in
Speaker 1: effect for certain weapons. Too extreme, You say, no, it
Speaker 1: is not. Can't say it's too extreme. When Democrats are
Speaker 1: running around telling everybody that they needed to make sure
Speaker 1: that the National Guard current, that the National Guard that
Speaker 1: was that was assigned to guard the Biden inauguration, twenty
Speaker 1: seven thousand or so of them needed to be vetted
Speaker 1: for pro Trump sympathies, as if that's a that's equivalent
Speaker 1: to al Qaeda jihadism, right, the ideology of a global
Speaker 1: jihad being waged for the UH, the creation of a
Speaker 1: caliphe to dominate all people's, all religions for all time. Yeah,
Speaker 1: being a Trump supporter, it's just like that. Here's DC's
Speaker 1: Mayor Bowser, who's totally onboard. There's the mayor Washington, d C,
Speaker 1: totally onboard. Yeah, we got to make sure there's no no,
Speaker 1: there was nobody in the National Guard who, you know,
Speaker 1: too much of a Trump support, too much of a
Speaker 1: Trump radical play forward. When you have um guards coming,
Speaker 1: guardsmen and women coming from all over the country at
Speaker 1: this time, I do think that it is is prudent
Speaker 1: to make sure that they're being vetted and that anybody
Speaker 1: who cannot pledge allegiance to um to their missions uh
Speaker 1: and maybe pulled by other of you, needs not only
Speaker 1: to be removed from this duty, they need to be
Speaker 1: removed from the guard, kicked out of the military. For now.
Speaker 1: You could say, oh no, they would only do this
Speaker 1: if you were a real extremist plotting violence. You believe
Speaker 1: that you think that they're gonna let let bygones be bygones. Now.
Speaker 1: You got a lot of hashtag maga up on your
Speaker 1: Facebook page. They want to give that one a second thought.
Speaker 1: You got a lot of Trump photos and Trump paraphernalia
Speaker 1: all over your social media accounts or your office cubical
Speaker 1: for that matter. Democrats want you to know they're not
Speaker 1: forgetting this one, but I'm not forgetting it either. We
Speaker 1: remember who we are, what we stand for, and what
Speaker 1: we're trying to do for this country. And that doesn't
Speaker 1: change because of one election cycle. It doesn't change because
Speaker 1: of the departure of one politician from office. Our fight
Speaker 1: continues on. We may have to play some defense for
Speaker 1: a while, but it will only be a while. You're
Speaker 1: listening to the Buck Sexton Show podcast, make sure you
Speaker 1: subscribe to the podcast on the iHeart radio app or
Speaker 1: wherever you get your podcasts. My fear is that if Republicans,
Speaker 1: particularly Republican leadership, goes along with this impeachment, they'll destroy
Speaker 1: the party. And so I think it's a huge mistake.
Speaker 1: I think it's a hugely partisan exercise on the part
Speaker 1: of the Democrats, but for Republicans who go along with it,
Speaker 1: I think they'll destroy our party. Donald Trump isn't everything
Speaker 1: in the party, but he did bring a lot of
Speaker 1: people to the party, and I think it's a huge
Speaker 1: mistake for people to say, oh, well, we're just going
Speaker 1: to impeach him, and that all of the blue collar
Speaker 1: workers that he brought to our party are going to stay. No.
Speaker 1: I think quite a few of them will be unhappy.
Speaker 1: So I hope our leadership will think twice about these
Speaker 1: undercurrents and rumblings about them actually voting for impeachment. I
Speaker 1: sure hope it doesn't happen. It's a disaster if they
Speaker 1: do that. Republicans should absolutely not. Joe Biden is now president.
Speaker 1: Why are we even why is there even a conversation
Speaker 1: about continuing in the Congress to take punitive action against
Speaker 1: a now ex president. What is the point of this,
Speaker 1: what does it serve oh to allow for a cleansing
Speaker 1: of the Republican Party, right, they have to get rid
Speaker 1: of the moral rot, as one late night alleged comedian says,
Speaker 1: they have to make sure that what should we be
Speaker 1: taking advice about our party, about the Republican Party from
Speaker 1: the likes of Harry Reid here he is sixteen. I
Speaker 1: all things, working with McConnell for many years, I have
Speaker 1: he could be accused of a lot of things, but
Speaker 1: one of them he's not done. And I think he
Speaker 1: realizes that Trump is a drag on the Republican Party.
Speaker 1: And I think that that was an opening salavo for
Speaker 1: Mitch McConnell to disengage from Trump to try to re
Speaker 1: establish a rebrand the Republican Party. Trump is a dragon
Speaker 1: the Republican Party, according to Harry Reid, which means you
Speaker 1: definitely don't want to impeach this guy and go through
Speaker 1: that whole removal process so that he can never be
Speaker 1: in office again. You know, if the Senate has this trial.
Speaker 1: This is wrong on so many levels, But I always
Speaker 1: tell you don't take advice from your enemies, don't don't
Speaker 1: do what they want you to do, and this right
Speaker 1: now is a perfect example of a situation like that.
Speaker 1: It would be it would be absurd, absolutely absurd at
Speaker 1: this stage to do it. It's also unconstitutional. It's also
Speaker 1: just unnecessarily divisive within our own party. Trump is gone.
Speaker 1: He left. Okay, they didn't have to send in squat
Speaker 1: teams to the Oval Office to drag him out or anything.
Speaker 1: All that crazy crap that people were saying. That didn't happen.
Speaker 1: He's gone and he left, he left the Oval Office.
Speaker 1: All right, Well, now what we're gonna repudiate everything? Yeah,
Speaker 1: the Trump presidency wasn't perfect. No presidency is. And in
Speaker 1: the end, yes, I got Matt, I was. I was
Speaker 1: angry at this administration for what happened after the election.
Speaker 1: I will admit that I was an m very annoyed
Speaker 1: about what they did and what and what went on.
Speaker 1: I'm talking about from the administration. I'm not talking about
Speaker 1: the actual rioters. I've already spoken about that. But the
Speaker 1: first three years of the Trump presidency were in a
Speaker 1: lot of ways just great, very good policymaking decisions, good
Speaker 1: on trade, good on the border, good on immigration. You
Speaker 1: go down the list of all of Trump's accomplishments, the
Speaker 1: things that were done, some excellent judicial picks, a lot
Speaker 1: of excellent judicial picks, and of course a number that
Speaker 1: went to the Supreme Court. Kavanaugh and Amy con Barrett
Speaker 1: ACB may end up being one of the greatest things
Speaker 1: that Trump even got done. Kavanaugh perhaps not as much,
Speaker 1: although I still hold to this day that the Kavanaugh
Speaker 1: hearings and what the Democrats, including Vice President Kamala Harris
Speaker 1: did to Brett Kavanaugh, was a moment of clarity, a
Speaker 1: moment of recognition for millions of conservatives across the country. Well,
Speaker 1: a lot more people are going to be getting the
Speaker 1: Kavanaugh treatment now, make no mistake about it. All many
Speaker 1: more people are going to be attacked, maligned, slander, deep platformed, canceled,
Speaker 1: you name it. This is, unfortunately now, the kind of
Speaker 1: political climate. This is a consequence of our elections. Now.
Speaker 1: The Democrats, when they win, think that they have a
Speaker 1: free hand to punish people for their wrong ideas. It's
Speaker 1: it's not enough to be able to enact the policies
Speaker 1: that they want. They want to be able to humiliate,
Speaker 1: control and force the other side into submission. And then
Speaker 1: maybe we can have a conversation, and then maybe we
Speaker 1: could have a discussion about unity again. Right first, there
Speaker 1: has to go through this period perhaps a let's say
Speaker 1: a year or two of it, you know, up and
Speaker 1: up until the midterms, of removing all remnants of Trumpism
Speaker 1: from not just politics, but public discourse. Everything. You're gonna
Speaker 1: see if you've already had some of this, They're gonna
Speaker 1: see stores and in place say we're not even we're
Speaker 1: not going to sell maga gear. I mean, they're they're
Speaker 1: going to try to treat uh, anything that is that
Speaker 1: is directly affiliated with Trump as as some kind of
Speaker 1: hate symbol that they have to if they have to
Speaker 1: expunge into their minds from the culture. So we're the
Speaker 1: ones who have to say, no, you can't do that.
Speaker 1: This isn't the Soviet Union, Libs. Even though you've won
Speaker 1: this election, you're in the freedom hunt. Thanks for listening
Speaker 1: to the Buck Sexton Show podcast. Get the latest from
Speaker 1: Buck at buck sexton dot com. Where we go from here,
Speaker 1: what's next for the GOP, for the Republican Party, Faithful,
Speaker 1: the base and everything around it, everyone in between. Let's
Speaker 1: get to our friend Rob Smith. Now. He is a
Speaker 1: veteran and author and contributed to the first TV Rob
Speaker 1: how are you feeling today? I'm good man, I'm good
Speaker 1: about self. I mean, I'm I'm obviously I'm disappointed for
Speaker 1: the country, but I also understand that we're going to
Speaker 1: get through this. It'll be all right. I hate the
Speaker 1: phrase it's not the end of the world, but it
Speaker 1: really isn't. But let's let's get more constructive than that.
Speaker 1: I mean, first off, what were your feelings about this
Speaker 1: presidency on its as it's last day has now happened.
Speaker 1: I mean, he is Nola, it is now ex President Trump.
Speaker 1: What's you're feeling about the four years? I feel like
Speaker 1: we should start to have a conversation about what really
Speaker 1: happened here, the good, the bad, and the ugly. Yeah.
Speaker 1: So look, I did an episode of my podcast at
Speaker 1: Lunches this week. It's basically called we all need to
Speaker 1: end our obsession with President Trump, and I think that
Speaker 1: how we move forward as a goop and when we
Speaker 1: think about really what this administration was in the past
Speaker 1: four years, there have been a lot of amazing things
Speaker 1: that happened. We got the best economy that at one
Speaker 1: point the world had ever seen. We had criminal justice reform,
Speaker 1: we had cutting through red tape, we had basically a
Speaker 1: vaccine for a deadly virus that crippled the world in
Speaker 1: less than a year. Like these are some really, really
Speaker 1: amazing things, and I think that as we look back
Speaker 1: at this presidency, we can see some really great things
Speaker 1: that happened in terms of policies, like the policies were great,
Speaker 1: in terms of arguing with no name orders, in terms
Speaker 1: of some of the tweets, in terms of some of
Speaker 1: the kind of NonStop controversies. I think that we all
Speaker 1: got a little over that towards the end. But I
Speaker 1: think that this is not so much. I think President
Speaker 1: Trump had had a lot to do with it, but
Speaker 1: it was also I mean, he was just frustrated by
Speaker 1: battling a media industry and entertainment industry. So many people
Speaker 1: were against him, and I think that's where all of
Speaker 1: that stuff came from. But I think in order for
Speaker 1: us to move forward as conservatives, as a Republican party,
Speaker 1: I think that a lot of us have to get
Speaker 1: over this obsession with President Trump, And by that I
Speaker 1: mean to make one person be the entirety of all
Speaker 1: of our political hopes or all of our political dreams
Speaker 1: are basically the political future of the Republican party is
Speaker 1: very shortsighted. I think that a very strong thing that
Speaker 1: he said during his farewell address was that we built
Speaker 1: this movement. He kept on saying we, we, we, and
Speaker 1: I thought that was very strategic and that was amazed,
Speaker 1: because it is going to be up to we the people,
Speaker 1: whether you're part of the MAGA movement, whether you're just
Speaker 1: a mainstream conservative, whether you're an independent or libertarian who
Speaker 1: just so happens to be attracted to conservative policies, It's
Speaker 1: going to be up to us to take the mantle
Speaker 1: from here on out. And I think that this now
Speaker 1: official Biden presidency is going to give a lot of
Speaker 1: us opportunities to say, look, guys, this is what you wanted,
Speaker 1: and we are going to show you why these policies
Speaker 1: don't work, because, unfortunately, we are going to see it
Speaker 1: over the next four years in real time, why left
Speaker 1: democratic policies do not work. Rob Where do you come
Speaker 1: down on the debate over whether Biden is going to
Speaker 1: be a a moderating force within the Democratic Party. I
Speaker 1: don't think it's fair to call him a moderate, because
Speaker 1: the Democrat Party is not in any way a centrist
Speaker 1: party anymore. But do you think that he'll be because
Speaker 1: essentially he got elected because he didn't. He didn't frighten
Speaker 1: certain voters who would be uncomfortab voting for saying has
Speaker 1: been socialists right? That was the pat was really the pitch.
Speaker 1: He's been around forever and so he was non threatening
Speaker 1: in a sense. But there is a very radical left,
Speaker 1: not fringe, but now I think we could say vanguard
Speaker 1: in the Democrat Party. Do you think that they're gonna
Speaker 1: have Joe Biden as a moderating influence on their desires
Speaker 1: or is he just going to be a pass through
Speaker 1: for what they want? Essentially, Look, I think he's going
Speaker 1: to be a pass thing for what they want. And
Speaker 1: I think that he's not gonna stop any of this
Speaker 1: rhetoric that's coming from these far left and I can't
Speaker 1: even say far left media personnel or whatever, because these
Speaker 1: are Congress congressmen and women that are saying some pretty
Speaker 1: insane things. Joe Biden's not gonna stop them. He's not
Speaker 1: gonna be a moderating force to this, because what it
Speaker 1: is is that the left blank of the party sees
Speaker 1: blood in the water. He may not repeat some of
Speaker 1: the stuff that he's not going to stop them from
Speaker 1: saying it um And I don't think that he's going
Speaker 1: to be a very moderating force at all. I think
Speaker 1: that there are a lot of people that get that
Speaker 1: get a lot of attention via what they say on
Speaker 1: Twitter and what they say on social media. Look at
Speaker 1: AOC looking, Corey Bushel, Goot, Jamal Bowman, look at all
Speaker 1: of these people. They're very, very far left. And Joe
Speaker 1: Biden is a pretty week leader. As a matter of fact,
Speaker 1: he failed the first test as a leader of Democrat
Speaker 1: Party in order to moderate people when he failed to
Speaker 1: really speak up forcefully about the riots that left America
Speaker 1: in claims over the past summer that we're started by
Speaker 1: people on the left and that were cheerleaded by the
Speaker 1: now Vice president Kamala Harris. So is he going to
Speaker 1: be a moderating for us? No, I just absolutely not.
Speaker 1: He's two week of a leader to be a moderating
Speaker 1: for us. Speaking of Rob Smith, he is a veteran
Speaker 1: author and first TV contributor. Rob, you were somebody who
Speaker 1: who I think perhaps celebrated maga culture is fair to say, right,
Speaker 1: I mean you never walked away from that. You were
Speaker 1: very very popular among the maga folks out there and
Speaker 1: what do you You know, one thing that I will
Speaker 1: say about Trump that I felt never really got enough
Speaker 1: attention was that there were there were young people. Uh,
Speaker 1: there were young you know, there there were people in
Speaker 1: their twenties and thirties who felt like, you know, they
Speaker 1: could go and wear a MAGA hat and and that
Speaker 1: they there was a culture around Trump. There was a
Speaker 1: kind of a kind of of political um you know,
Speaker 1: a political celebration of day to day life that that
Speaker 1: he was a part of. Do you think that continues
Speaker 1: in any way? I mean, because the Republican Party brand
Speaker 1: before him was much more you know, old stodgy white
Speaker 1: males who play golf and you know I were working
Speaker 1: corporate jobs, right, that's the stereotype or or you know,
Speaker 1: there's another one for different parts of the country. But
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, I mean there's kind of this.
Speaker 1: You look at the leadership. You know, Book and Cheney
Speaker 1: and McCain and Romney. These are not guys that inspire
Speaker 1: memes in a positive way. Do you think that that
Speaker 1: continues now with Trump, even though he's not in office.
Speaker 1: I really do think that it contains with a Maga
Speaker 1: movement because you have to look at the types of
Speaker 1: people that were brought into this people like me. And
Speaker 1: I make no bones about the fact that I've obviously
Speaker 1: risen to prominence in the past a couple of years
Speaker 1: due to large part of my support for President Trump
Speaker 1: and sort of being embraced by the MAGA movement, which
Speaker 1: I will never turn my backbone because I know what
Speaker 1: it stands for and I believe in what it stands for.
Speaker 1: And I think that a lot of the people that
Speaker 1: have come to prominence that are a part of this movement,
Speaker 1: that are that are creators, people that are that are entertaining,
Speaker 1: people that can do different things like I can you know,
Speaker 1: be here and speak to you about politics, that I
Speaker 1: can go do a TikTok challenge. And and what Trump
Speaker 1: did was he brought this energy and it's almost kind
Speaker 1: of like an entertainment culture esque energy into the party.
Speaker 1: And I think that the challenge for the party right now.
Speaker 1: And this is what the Democrat Party is amazing at
Speaker 1: it personally because they have the backing of the entire
Speaker 1: you know, Hollywood, media, music, and entertainment industry. But it
Speaker 1: behooves us as Republicans to say, Okay, you've got you know,
Speaker 1: the old school mainstream, you know Republicans, the Romneys and
Speaker 1: all those, But then you've got those of us that
Speaker 1: are out here actually creating our own culture on social media,
Speaker 1: on the Internet. Sometimes you know people like me that
Speaker 1: pop back and forth between television. But you have to
Speaker 1: bring these things together and make them a unified movement.
Speaker 1: And I think that there is no candidate for president
Speaker 1: that's a Republican of the future. There is no candidate
Speaker 1: for Congress in the future that does not go through
Speaker 1: the MAGA base. So I think that it's very important
Speaker 1: to continue engaging that base. How worried are you rob
Speaker 1: about the wave of not just I think it even
Speaker 1: will go beyond cancelation. I think we're going to see
Speaker 1: a public private partnership of idea suppression. Right, So it's
Speaker 1: it's one thing, you know, cancelation is what happens to
Speaker 1: you for the wrong ideas. They're going to now go
Speaker 1: even further up the the source. If you will there,
Speaker 1: They're gonna go further up the chain and prevent people
Speaker 1: from even being able to share these ideas. Oh and
Speaker 1: if you try, you will be canceled. What do you
Speaker 1: see happening and how do people like you and me
Speaker 1: and others listening to this prepare for that. I think that, honestly,
Speaker 1: in my opinion, it's going to get worse before it
Speaker 1: gets better. And one critique that I do have of
Speaker 1: the administration is that there is ample opportunity to really
Speaker 1: do something about this, and it never happened, So that
Speaker 1: is that is a really big failing on the part
Speaker 1: of the outgoing administration. But I do think that it's
Speaker 1: going to get worse. How do we prepare for it?
Speaker 1: I mean, I personally always wanted to make sure that
Speaker 1: I'm out there in different places than Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.
Speaker 1: Who knows how long those platforms will still be available
Speaker 1: to me. And I think that for the people who
Speaker 1: fear this cancel culture mob, who fear more suppression of ideas,
Speaker 1: what we have to do is we have to start
Speaker 1: leaning on the people that we've elected, the people that
Speaker 1: we will continue to put an office in the future,
Speaker 1: is to do something about this. Don't just talk about it,
Speaker 1: don't just tweet about it, actually do something about it.
Speaker 1: And we have to start calling out the people in
Speaker 1: power that are you know, being lobbied by Facebook, by Twitter,
Speaker 1: by Instagram, by all of these different places in order
Speaker 1: to kind of keep the status quo. So I don't
Speaker 1: think that a Republican is going to get elected congressman
Speaker 1: or even president of the future if they don't have
Speaker 1: a really strong stance against this kind of censorship and
Speaker 1: an idea about what to do about it. But I
Speaker 1: have to say, and I say this a lot on
Speaker 1: the rocks about this problematic podcast as well, is that
Speaker 1: it's going to have to take same voices on the
Speaker 1: left too. Even some liberals realize that this kind of
Speaker 1: suppression and this kind of clamping down on free speech
Speaker 1: is not good because some of them realize that the
Speaker 1: pendulum can very easily shift in their way as well.
Speaker 1: So I think that it's going to take a lot
Speaker 1: of thinking people who really are advocates for free speech
Speaker 1: on the right and the left to come together and
Speaker 1: to fix this Facebook, Instagram, Twitter. These things are too
Speaker 1: big and they need to be broken up. Now we
Speaker 1: don't have control not only of the presidency, either of
Speaker 1: the House or the Senate. What do you think of
Speaker 1: calls to try to organize at the state and local
Speaker 1: level where possible to try to create I guess you
Speaker 1: could say bulwarks of liberty against the encroachment of the
Speaker 1: federal government where where possible, where where that's a lawful option,
Speaker 1: or also just to begin to create you know, we're
Speaker 1: starting to see outflow from blue air is New York
Speaker 1: being one of them, down to Florida. You're seeing people
Speaker 1: leave California. A lot of them are conservatives. And maybe
Speaker 1: this this great blue red sorting that is going on
Speaker 1: right now, of which I may become apart at some
Speaker 1: point myself, to be honest with you in the pretty
Speaker 1: near future, that this also raises opportunities. You know, it
Speaker 1: really does, and I really wie with the fact that
Speaker 1: people have to start, you know, operating on the local
Speaker 1: level as well. I'm a I'm a defector. I left
Speaker 1: New York and I came down here to Florida. I'm
Speaker 1: in Florida. It's absolutely amazing. But what we really have
Speaker 1: to do is we have to make sure that when
Speaker 1: people are fleeing these blue states and coming to red states,
Speaker 1: that we are keeping these states bread. And I think,
Speaker 1: in absence of any kind of majority in the House,
Speaker 1: but I do think we'll get it back in twenty
Speaker 1: twenty two. But I really do think that we have
Speaker 1: to start thinking in terms of that, and I like
Speaker 1: this word that you use, this sort of like bulwark
Speaker 1: against what be encroachment of the federal government. Because me
Speaker 1: living in Florida, with the Great Governor Ron de Santis
Speaker 1: in Florida, I feel a part of the reason why
Speaker 1: I'm not as betalistic as some other people is because
Speaker 1: I live in Florida and it is a great place
Speaker 1: to live, and I'm going to work to keep it
Speaker 1: a great place to live. Right there are still the
Speaker 1: genius of the founders is that we have a constitution
Speaker 1: that we know Democrats will try to shred at many opportunities,
Speaker 1: but we still have it, and we have states and
Speaker 1: state responsibilities. So there are there are options here to
Speaker 1: try to pursue a more shall we say, capitalist and
Speaker 1: liberty based future for for individuals and for families out
Speaker 1: there who are listening to this while staying in the
Speaker 1: United States. I'm not advocating. I'm not some cry baby
Speaker 1: labor who's gonna say we should all move to New
Speaker 1: Zealand or Canada or whatever. No, there are ways to
Speaker 1: stay here in this country. There is the fight, the
Speaker 1: political fight that's worth that's worth having, and I just
Speaker 1: wanted to want to know, if you have some you know,
Speaker 1: what are your your work words of encouragement? This is
Speaker 1: a tough day for a lot of people. Rob A
Speaker 1: lot of people listening to this are having a rough one.
Speaker 1: And and I'm I'm also cycle. I've been psychologically preparing
Speaker 1: for it quite honestly since let's say a couple of
Speaker 1: weeks after the election, when I felt like these legal
Speaker 1: challenges we were very remote in the probability of success
Speaker 1: for for a lot of other people, though, this this
Speaker 1: really stings. What are your you know, what's your halftime
Speaker 1: coach speech for? You know? There there are better times
Speaker 1: ahead for America. You know I mean that said there
Speaker 1: are better times ahead for America. But look, the thing
Speaker 1: about it is is that when you love this country,
Speaker 1: you believe in this country, you gotta love it and
Speaker 1: believe in it no matter what. And if you are
Speaker 1: somebody that's out there that's feeling I'm discouraged or kind
Speaker 1: of like overwhelmed by all of this, I would say,
Speaker 1: use this fire to think about how you can get
Speaker 1: involved to change things. The great thing about this Maga
Speaker 1: movie is that so many people got involved that were
Speaker 1: not involved before. But think about how if you you're
Speaker 1: a conservative and you have conservative leaning principles or Republican
Speaker 1: principles or whatever. How you can get involved in the
Speaker 1: local level, How you can do things that are a
Speaker 1: little bit different. I know me personally, I'm involved in
Speaker 1: this way. I do a lot of political commentary, but
Speaker 1: I think that we have a cultural deficit with conservatives,
Speaker 1: and I'm focusing a little bit of my energy on
Speaker 1: doing culture stuff. So I think that we all have
Speaker 1: something to offer. Do not be defeated, do not give up,
Speaker 1: never ever quit. Dust yourself off, lick your wounds, and
Speaker 1: think about your next steps forwards, positively impacting our great nation.
Speaker 1: Rob Smith from the first TV my man. Always good
Speaker 1: to see you. Better days ahead for both of us.
Speaker 1: We'll talk soon. Absolutely, Thanks Buck,
