Speaker 1: My next guest is one of the most prominent and
Speaker 1: influential conservative voices.
Speaker 2: In the United States of America.
Speaker 1: He's the host on Hannity that can be seen Monday
Speaker 1: through Friday on Fox News nine pm. Easter is standing
Speaker 1: part Eastern Standard time. By the way, please welcome the
Speaker 1: one and only Sean Handity here to rub it in.
Speaker 2: Before we even start, let me say.
Speaker 3: This stop stop right there. No way, I'm not here
Speaker 3: to rub anything. I'm not spiking the football. Ask me
Speaker 3: how I feel about the election, and I will tell
Speaker 3: you I am grateful. I am relieved. It was an
Speaker 3: overwhelming win. When you made your prediction to me, I
Speaker 3: happen to be around people that you love when you
Speaker 3: made it and you told me you were like so
Speaker 3: certain which way I was going. I said, not so fast.
Speaker 3: But you know, I love the fact that we can
Speaker 3: have a dialogue and cushion and there's no spike in
Speaker 3: the football here. I feel this isn't for the bet.
Speaker 3: This is for the betterment of the country. I want
Speaker 3: you to succeed. I want every American to succeed. I
Speaker 3: want everybody to be happy. Success will be good for
Speaker 3: all of us.
Speaker 1: See, this is the problem this is the problem. This
Speaker 1: is my platform. You've already started by staying hold up,
Speaker 1: hold up.
Speaker 2: Then't let me get my.
Speaker 1: First question now, because the first thing that I was.
Speaker 2: Gonna get on was telling my audience. We had to
Speaker 2: wait a while for.
Speaker 1: You because your hair wasn't right, the background wasn't right,
Speaker 1: and you had to look just so pristige for the camera.
Speaker 2: So I was gonna ease.
Speaker 3: Light was so bad you couldn't see me. So I
Speaker 3: don't I don't do. I don't have a computer. This
Speaker 3: is my brother in law's computer. He had to come
Speaker 3: over here and set it up. I don't own a computer.
Speaker 3: I don't have an email account. I have no access
Speaker 3: to my social media. I have to go through a
Speaker 3: staff to put something up on social media. But when
Speaker 3: you're on my show, I give you all the room
Speaker 3: and then I get then I get attacked Sean Hannity.
Speaker 3: So that's not my.
Speaker 1: Yeah, ask about five minute questions before you let me answer.
Speaker 1: Oh my lord, you need to stop. You need to
Speaker 1: But listen, let's get serious here for a second. You
Speaker 1: were telling me. Credit to you. You were telling me
Speaker 1: for so long you thought Trump would win this election.
Speaker 1: You thought the Democrats would lose it, Sean, I have
Speaker 1: to admit I thought that when he got when the
Speaker 1: first attempted assassination against him took place, and he went
Speaker 1: to the ground and then ultimately got up with blood
Speaker 1: dripping down the right side of his face, and he
Speaker 1: raised his fist of the crowd, fight fight fight with
Speaker 1: Secret Service covering him, and the American flag was over him.
Speaker 2: I said, this is a rap.
Speaker 1: He's gonna win the election. Then he started talking and
Speaker 1: getting in his own way, and I said, I've never
Speaker 1: seen anybody blow it in such a situation in my life,
Speaker 1: but you never wavered. Why what made you so confident
Speaker 1: this outcome was going to be this outcome?
Speaker 4: Look, there were a lot of things going on that
Speaker 4: I was confident on the issues that transcend all demographics
Speaker 4: of so sick of demographics were all Americans, you know.
Speaker 3: At the end of the day, one great thing Trump
Speaker 3: did say was was success, you know, will unite us,
Speaker 3: and success will benefit everybody. And under his first term,
Speaker 3: the people and the narrative of the left is well.
Speaker 3: He gave tax cuts for the rich people out of
Speaker 3: the greatest world creation, greatest job creation, by the numbers,
Speaker 3: I've gone over the best numbers for the first three years.
Speaker 3: Putting aside the pandemic, here were African Americans, Hispanic Americans,
Speaker 3: Asian Americans, women in the workplace, African American youth unemployment.
Speaker 3: I don't like demographics. I want every American to succeed.
Speaker 3: But when you look at the disaster that was the
Speaker 3: border and twelve and a half million unvetted Harris Biden
Speaker 3: illegal immigrants, and for three years they lied and they said, no,
Speaker 3: the border is secure, the closed, and we with our
Speaker 3: own ic that it's anything but secure or closed. You
Speaker 3: had people coming from one hundred and eighty countries including Iran, Syria, Egypt, Afghanistan, Venezuela,
Speaker 3: tens and tens of thousands from China and Russia. I
Speaker 3: don't think those people are all coming here because they
Speaker 3: want to better life for themselves and their family. And
Speaker 3: they lied about it. They denied it, and then something
Speaker 3: else happened, and maybe the Democrats just thought they could
Speaker 3: ignore it. But we had dozens of Americans and I
Speaker 3: would scroll their names on my TV show that were murdered.
Speaker 3: The allegation is Harris Biden illegals did it, and that
Speaker 3: we had their names. We knew when they came here.
Speaker 3: They came here because they opened up the border and
Speaker 3: Harris pledging to get rid of that medieval vanity project,
Speaker 3: as she called the wall. Dozens of Americans dead. You
Speaker 3: know some of their names. I scrolled all their names,
Speaker 3: Rachel Moore and mother of five, Lake and Riley, joscely Nungary,
Speaker 3: little twelve year old girl in Houston, and so many others.
Speaker 3: Dozens and dozens of Americans were raped, including children. Stephen
Speaker 3: A and hundreds and hundreds of Americans were victims of
Speaker 3: violent crime. That's issue won. Now we can talk about
Speaker 3: the economy. They lied and said inflation was transitory. They
Speaker 3: told us the economy straight, but then it became on
Speaker 3: day one, I'm going to fix I'm going to fix
Speaker 3: the economy. But you were telling us for over three
Speaker 3: years of the economy is in great shape. You know
Speaker 3: what is it? And she didn't get called out a
Speaker 3: lot on it, and but people felt it every store.
Speaker 3: Let me backtrack. There are points of my life where
Speaker 3: I had to struggle to pay my rent. I couldn't
Speaker 3: buy the food that I wanted to buy did I
Speaker 3: couldn't even afford McDonald's. And I worked for ten years
Speaker 3: of my life in construction. Ten years of my life.
Speaker 3: I work in restaurants and thank God because it defined
Speaker 3: me as a human being. That and my belief in God.
Speaker 3: I think it really kept me somewhat saying. You'll argue
Speaker 3: that part, but people are suffering. Two thirds of the
Speaker 3: country were saying in polls that they are golding water financially.
Speaker 3: Last year alone, twenty five percent of Americans said they
Speaker 3: had two four go meals. Okay, those are real pocketbook issues.
Speaker 3: They transcend every demographic. Then you go to the issue.
Speaker 3: Every time you gas up your car, depending at what
Speaker 3: point we were in during the Harris Biden administration, you're
Speaker 3: paying anywhere from two and a half to a dollar
Speaker 3: to a dollar and a half more per gallon of gasoline.
Speaker 3: Donald Trump, when he left office, it was two dollars
Speaker 3: and forty eight cents a gallon. The national average never
Speaker 3: went higher than three dollars a gallon, never got to
Speaker 3: three dollars a gallon for the first time in seventy
Speaker 3: five years. He made this country energy independent, and now
Speaker 3: he wants in his second term to make us energy dominant.
Speaker 3: I don't know about you. I have the money to
Speaker 3: fill up my car It's not a problem for me financially,
Speaker 3: but I'd rather pay two dollars a gallon than three
Speaker 3: point fifty a gallon. And I think most Americans they
Speaker 3: feel it. It is hurting their businesses. Then you get
Speaker 3: to the madness of defund, dismantle, no bad laws, et cetera,
Speaker 3: et cetera. BacT to immigration. We have known terrorists in
Speaker 3: the country, we have cartels in the country, we have
Speaker 3: gang members in this country that they allowed in and
Speaker 3: by the way, they need to be sent out and
Speaker 3: sent home. And we can get into the details of that.
Speaker 3: So between all of that and a campaign that evolved
Speaker 3: into if you're a conservative, you're a racist, you're a Nazi,
Speaker 3: and you're a fascist and you like Hitler, Stalin and
Speaker 3: Massolda not exactly the best campaign.
Speaker 2: Well let me ask you this, Sean. Yeah, if they
Speaker 2: if we had.
Speaker 1: A stronger economy, and they make the argument that the
Speaker 1: economy had improved, inflation obviously was inherited from Trump to
Speaker 1: bid them at one and a half percent, it ballooned
Speaker 1: to about nine point one percent if I remember correctly,
Speaker 1: before it ultimately dipped down. I know they make the argument.
Speaker 1: The left made the argument that the economy had improved,
Speaker 1: reports said that as well. You begged to differ. But
Speaker 1: here's my question. If, for the sake of argument, the
Speaker 1: economy was good but the border crisis had not taken place,
Speaker 1: you know, would it have been a different outcome in
Speaker 1: your estimation if Biden had never opened the border.
Speaker 2: Essentially, what I mean, if.
Speaker 3: They would have done their job. In other words, would
Speaker 3: they have had a better chance of winning?
Speaker 2: Would they have never opened a border? Would they if
Speaker 2: they had never opened a border?
Speaker 3: If they never opened the border? Well, first of all,
Speaker 3: this is now going to be the biggest national security
Speaker 3: threat in our lifetime. I have been warning for the
Speaker 3: longest time, and I mean this with all my heart
Speaker 3: because I was there on nine to eleven. You were
Speaker 3: there on nine to eleven. Nobody's going to forget where
Speaker 3: they were on nine to eleven. And we lost two,
Speaker 3: nine and seventy seven of our fellow Americans that day,
Speaker 3: the worst terror attack in history. And we have known
Speaker 3: terrorists in this country right now. We have Iranian assassination
Speaker 3: squads in this country right now, and their goal is
Speaker 3: to take out Donald Trump. After two would be assassins
Speaker 3: during this campaign. So if you're asking me. We were
Speaker 3: told there are thirteen thousand known murderers that they let
Speaker 3: into this country. They allowed it known terrorists, but we
Speaker 3: don't know where they are in the country. So I
Speaker 3: would assume that they're plotting, planning, and scheving their next attack.
Speaker 3: And I set on the air many times they have
Speaker 3: blood on their hands, but the people murdered, the people raped,
Speaker 3: and the people victims of violent crime. And I think
Speaker 3: it's sadly a matter of when and not if this
Speaker 3: country's going to get hit with a terror attack, and
Speaker 3: they will have more blood on their hands. Now I
Speaker 3: say that, and I always follow it up with I
Speaker 3: pray to God, our father, that I am wrong, that
Speaker 3: I am dead wrong. I don't think I am stephen A.
Speaker 3: They allowed too many of them men, and for whatever
Speaker 3: reason I don't know. I think the plan ultimately, oh,
Speaker 3: come on, said what the plan was, decriminalize the illegal immigrants,
Speaker 3: offer them free food, housing, healthcare, education along with the
Speaker 3: running legal drivers' licenses, free sex change surgeries if you
Speaker 3: want one, taxpayer funded, and then an earned path to citizenship,
Speaker 3: which is really called amnesty. That was their plan. And
Speaker 3: the American people they're not going to buy that. And
Speaker 3: the mainstream. I call it the legacy media is dead
Speaker 3: in America as of right now. Because dead, they're done,
Speaker 3: because because it's over, because look at what they have
Speaker 3: done to this man. No man has ever been persecuted
Speaker 3: to this level. Whether you like him or don't like him,
Speaker 3: you like his policies, you don't like his style, I
Speaker 3: don't care. The Russia hoax was three years of a
Speaker 3: never ending lie. They took out PISA warrance to spy
Speaker 3: on a candidate Donald Trump, a president elect Donald Trump,
Speaker 3: and then a President Donald Trump, and they lied to
Speaker 3: a Pisa for it. Every one of the people that
Speaker 3: signed those PISA warrants eventually had to go before Lindsey
Speaker 3: Graham in the US Senate and asked the question, well,
Speaker 3: knowing what you know now, would you have signed the warrants?
Speaker 3: And every one of them said no. And they signed
Speaker 3: it based on a dirty Russian bought and paid for
Speaker 3: disinformation dossier of Hillary Clinton that happened in our country.
Speaker 3: Steve and A, it can't happen again. We've got to
Speaker 3: clean up these agencies. We can't weaponize the DOJ to
Speaker 3: go after political opponents. We can't use what was formerly
Speaker 3: the greatest law enforcement agency in the in the world,
Speaker 3: the FBI, and politicize it. We can't take the greatest
Speaker 3: intelligence agencies in the world and politicize it. Fifty one
Speaker 3: former Intel officials that knew nothing about a laptop. That
Speaker 3: laptop was very real, and they did that in the
Speaker 3: weeks leading up to the twenty twenty election. Fair enough,
Speaker 3: is there's deep corruption there?
Speaker 2: Well that halet me time in here. Let me time
Speaker 2: me here.
Speaker 1: And the reason why I'm going to time in here
Speaker 1: is Number one, a lot of what you're saying is correct.
Speaker 2: The left absolutely categorically there's nothing wrong. Let me get
Speaker 2: to my bigger point.
Speaker 1: My bigger point is, first of all, I always had
Speaker 1: a problem with the whole law fare issue, only from
Speaker 1: the standpoint that to me, the Democrats were making it clear,
Speaker 1: and I think we now see they really believe they.
Speaker 2: Could beat them.
Speaker 1: I think one could easily make the argument against them
Speaker 1: with that. But when somebody looks at Sean Hannity and
Speaker 1: they listen to you talk about Trump, They're say to themselves,
Speaker 1: and I've seen liberals say this, So he's just going
Speaker 1: to ignore thirty four felony convictions.
Speaker 2: He's just going to ignore two impeachments.
Speaker 1: He's just going to ignore those kind of things and
Speaker 1: act like Donald Trump is the paragon of virtue.
Speaker 2: What do you say to people who say.
Speaker 1: That about Sean Hannity when it comes to him talking
Speaker 1: about Donald Trump, I.
Speaker 3: Say, I don't really give a damn what people say
Speaker 3: or think of Sean Hannity. I really don't care. I
Speaker 3: will say this that are more important than they are.
Speaker 3: I guarantee you let me take it away from you. Okay,
Speaker 3: Every major business in New York, and I guarantee you
Speaker 3: the Prosecutor's Office in New York have signed legal NDAs
Speaker 3: nondisclosure agreements that were put together by lawyers, that were
Speaker 3: billed as a legal expense, taxes paid as appropriately and
Speaker 3: nothing would have happened. So if you're asking me if
Speaker 3: I think this was the weaponization of a legal system
Speaker 3: against Donald Trump, my straight up answer is tell me
Speaker 3: where I'm wrong, because I bet you that Prosecutor's Office,
Speaker 3: if we got to their internal memos, they probably have
Speaker 3: signed MBAs too. There's probably not a company you've worked
Speaker 3: for your career that has not signed them. It is
Speaker 3: a very common practice. There are probably people you interview,
Speaker 3: sports legends the people you talk to every day, they
Speaker 3: probably have them too. If you want a date player X,
Speaker 3: you got to sign an NBA before you even go
Speaker 3: on a date with them, you know, and I know
Speaker 3: that's true.
Speaker 2: Sean.
Speaker 1: Will you bring up the issue of immigration and you
Speaker 1: talk about the immigrants that entered this country, you talked
Speaker 1: about thirteen thousand of them. You guys were told we're criminals. Now,
Speaker 1: obviously we looked at the border and I think the
Speaker 1: number has said it's said to have eclipsed eleven point
Speaker 1: six million.
Speaker 2: That entered this country.
Speaker 3: Didn't have if not more.
Speaker 2: They've talked about that as well.
Speaker 1: What do you say to folks from the Latino, from
Speaker 1: the Hispanic communities throughout this country that say, when Trump speaks,
Speaker 1: he might not highlight it's thirteen thousand. He speaks as
Speaker 1: if it's most, if not all, of them, and that
Speaker 1: creates such a negative stereotype about immigrants entering this country.
Speaker 3: What do you think about it? I would gently disagree
Speaker 3: with you and say that when he spoke, he talked
Speaker 3: about the fact that we didn't vet people. We have
Speaker 3: a legal process to come into this country. Look, I
Speaker 3: am My grandparents all came from Ireland, at the turn
Speaker 3: of the last century, and they came here, Dirk for
Speaker 3: they faced their level of discrimination and Irish Catholic need
Speaker 3: not apply. They had no money at all whatsoever, and
Speaker 3: you know it was terrible for them. But I know
Speaker 3: that I stand on their shoulders. I don't care where
Speaker 3: you come from, steven A. I just want to vet you.
Speaker 3: I want to make sure you don't have radical associations.
Speaker 3: I want to make sure post pandemic that we have
Speaker 3: a health check. I want to make sure that you're
Speaker 3: not going to be a financial burden on the American people.
Speaker 3: And if you do it legally, and we ought to
Speaker 3: expedite the process, it's process. It ought not be that difficult.
Speaker 3: Then I don't care what part of the world you
Speaker 3: come from. Welcome to our country. We can't take in
Speaker 3: the world's population, but we can be selective about who
Speaker 3: we take into the country, and we certainly must have
Speaker 3: a background check. There are evil people in this world
Speaker 3: and we cannot let them into this country. We've got
Speaker 3: to protect our family here first. And if we do that,
Speaker 3: if you come in legally, welcome to America. God bless
Speaker 3: you and I wish you the best of success. May
Speaker 3: God bless you and your family. And Donald Trump. You know,
Speaker 3: look at the numbers, stephen A. They don't lie. I
Speaker 3: mean he had the largest increase in vote with minorities,
Speaker 3: African Americans, Hispanic Americans, young people, women, I mean all
Speaker 3: across the board. People know. And the reason is is
Speaker 3: for the reasons I've discussed earlier, everybody wants lower gas prices.
Speaker 3: I would do my own grocery shopping. You know what
Speaker 3: the average the average family thirteen thousand dollars more a year.
Speaker 3: They're paying what they were buying in twenty twenty. People
Speaker 3: are putting bare necessities on credit cards. You know, it's
Speaker 3: the economy stupid. It's law and order and this madness
Speaker 3: of defund dismantle no bail laws and reimagining the police.
Speaker 3: It's wide open borders. It's sex change operations. It's woke
Speaker 3: is and we can talk about that all day if
Speaker 3: you want. And it's all and what frustrated me in
Speaker 3: the campaign is kind of a flat out lie to
Speaker 3: the American people. Repeatedly. She tried to scare seniors in
Speaker 3: this country and say Donald Trump is going to take
Speaker 3: your social Security and your Medicare. No, he's not social
Speaker 3: Security Medicare benefits went up in his first term, and
Speaker 3: he has pledged never to do that. Well. He supports
Speaker 3: Project twenty twenty five. He doesn't even know what it is.
Speaker 3: I've asked him myself numerous apps. They Kamalas said that
Speaker 3: he's going to sign a national abortion band. He promised
Speaker 3: he wouldn't. She said he would limit your access to contraception.
Speaker 3: He never said that he would limit IVF treatments. He
Speaker 3: never said that either. And I don't like, For one,
Speaker 3: I don't like being lied to. We're both parents. If
Speaker 3: your kid does something wrong, okay, it's probably not as
Speaker 3: bad as the things, and the things I did a
Speaker 3: lot worse. That's fine. But if they're lie to you
Speaker 3: about it, you're gonna be a much more trouble of
Speaker 3: my world.
Speaker 2: My world as well.
Speaker 1: Two points I want to address that you brought up. Yes,
Speaker 1: Trump didn't talk about a national abortion band. The flip
Speaker 1: side to it, however, is that justices who would condone that,
Speaker 1: who seem as if they would support that, are people
Speaker 1: obviously he elevated to the Supreme Court. One would argue,
Speaker 1: when you talk about it because no longer being a
Speaker 1: federal issue, it's now states rights. Some people say, yeah,
Speaker 1: Donald Trump, but you had everything to do with that.
Speaker 1: So I look at it from that perspective. There's no
Speaker 1: question about that.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but here but stephen A. For years, those of
Speaker 3: us that looked at Roe v. Wade, if you believe
Speaker 3: in federalism, can you believe in states, you know, having
Speaker 3: the ability to make these decisions and putting it into
Speaker 3: the hands of the people directly through their duly elected
Speaker 3: representatives or through a referendum process or proposition process like
Speaker 3: that have out in California. Let's take a red state, Ohio, Okay,
Speaker 3: Roe v wadeers overturned the referendum vote on abortion, and
Speaker 3: they vote for one of the most liberal abortion laws
Speaker 3: in the country. Abortion is not going to be outlawed
Speaker 3: in America in our lifetime period, end of sentence. It is.
Speaker 3: They're demagoguing it, they'll flat out lying, and they're trying
Speaker 3: to scare women and they know what they're doing. That's
Speaker 3: the worst part of it. Now, I happen to have views.
Speaker 3: I'm very pro life. I'm a Christian and my faith
Speaker 3: means everything to me. You and I have talked about
Speaker 3: our faith with each other, and however, I understand where
Speaker 3: the country is, and the country to me is probably
Speaker 3: first trimester or Dobbs fifteen weeks. And by the way,
Speaker 3: that's where even the most liberal European countries are. I mean,
Speaker 3: they don't go beyond that. Kamala Harris and Tim Walls
Speaker 3: absolutely no restrictions on abortion in months seven, eight, and nine. Okay,
Speaker 3: that's called in fantaside because that child can live independently
Speaker 3: outside the womb. That is morally repugnant to me. The
Speaker 3: other thing that, you know, we want to stay a
Speaker 3: little bit on some of the social issues. You know,
Speaker 3: why would California and Minnesota offer gender affirming care two minors.
Speaker 3: I'm a libertarian like you. You're an adult, live your life.
Speaker 3: It's none of Sean Hannity's business, none of my business
Speaker 3: at all, no criticism for me. But if it's somebody's children,
Speaker 3: I believe in parents rights. I know you believe in
Speaker 3: parents rights. Why do you think, as a bureaucrat or
Speaker 3: a government that you could offer medical care that could
Speaker 3: be life all watering two children and not consult with
Speaker 3: the parents.
Speaker 2: Listen, we don't, we don't.
Speaker 1: We don't have to believeor that point because I think
Speaker 1: that the left went a bit too far with the
Speaker 1: you know, with the progressive left. I think they were
Speaker 1: held hostile is by the progressive left. I think that's
Speaker 1: why Biden opened the border from day one.
Speaker 2: But let me get back to something about Trump.
Speaker 3: I think the Democratic Party is the progressive left. Well,
Speaker 3: I don't think if they had a primary tomorrow they
Speaker 3: would pick somebody like Kamala Harris. They wouldn't pick it,
Speaker 3: wouldn't pick stephen A. Smith.
Speaker 2: Well, I think you're wrong.
Speaker 1: I think I think you're wrong, especially after the results
Speaker 1: of this election. I think you're absolutely wrong about that.
Speaker 1: I think they've learned their lesson, make no mistake about it,
Speaker 1: after this butt whipping. I mean, there's no question they
Speaker 1: should rethink things, no question about it. But I'm gonna
Speaker 1: get back to Trump before I get into it with you.
Speaker 1: With some things that do need to change, particularly when
Speaker 1: it comes to the Democratic part I want the war
Speaker 1: Thor lectured. Excuse me, after you spent two years lecturing
Speaker 1: me about Tim Tebow, you're going to play with me
Speaker 1: about this.
Speaker 2: You better stop right now, You better stop right now.
Speaker 2: But let me ask you this.
Speaker 3: The best is my son. Who's your biggest fad? Right
Speaker 3: and and he had an opportunity to hang with us and.
Speaker 5: Oh many time. Sorry about day and you know I
Speaker 5: mean that. But man, you talk about his cowboys and
Speaker 5: it's like lights out, Dad, Dad, Steve. It ain't at
Speaker 5: it again exactly.
Speaker 1: And they got stopped yesterday. But let me get back
Speaker 1: to Trump. You talk about money, you talk about the economy,
Speaker 1: you also talk about our national deficit and the exorbitant
Speaker 1: spending that the Democrats have done over the years. When
Speaker 1: Trump was in office, he did increase the national deficit
Speaker 1: by about eight point four trillion dollars, showing I didn't
Speaker 1: hear you. I don't hear you bring that up too often.
Speaker 3: What's up with Well, there were extenuating circumstances in the
Speaker 3: last year of the Trump administration in the first year
Speaker 3: of the Biden administration, and that would be the worst
Speaker 3: pandemic at one hundred years. So I think we have
Speaker 3: to extrapolate from both sides to be fair. Those years
Speaker 3: out and he had to spend a lot of money
Speaker 3: and all that, and that's a big part of where
Speaker 3: it came from. However, post COVID years, Kamala and Joe
Speaker 3: have been putting another two trillion dollars to the bottom line, Republicans,
Speaker 3: in my view, pay very close attention. They are not
Speaker 3: paying enough attention to our national debt. It is projected
Speaker 3: to soon be fifty trillion dollars. Now. The best part
Speaker 3: of Trump's agenda that people are not going to be
Speaker 3: paying attention to is you've heard the term all throughout
Speaker 3: your life oil rich countries, energy rich countries. Well, we
Speaker 3: are the richest of all those countries combined. We have
Speaker 3: more oil, natural gas, coal than all of them. Now,
Speaker 3: the first step was energy independence. That was hard to achieve.
Speaker 3: Trump got it done the first time in seventy five years.
Speaker 3: And in interviews that I have had with him and
Speaker 3: private conversations that I've had with him, if America wants
Speaker 3: to get wealthy. For example, I got kicked out of
Speaker 3: New York. I had two governors say, get the hell
Speaker 3: out of here, get the hell out of here. We
Speaker 3: don't want you.
Speaker 2: Oh, you didn't get kicked out.
Speaker 1: You wanted to leave. Stop Dad, you wanted to leave.
Speaker 1: Comed about text.
Speaker 3: I'll call, I'll quote him for you, and then we'll
Speaker 3: get back to energy. If you're one of those conceive itives,
Speaker 3: that is pro guy and pro issure. Weapon and anti gay.
Speaker 3: You're not in New Yorker and there's no place for
Speaker 3: you in Europe. First of all, I'm not anti gay anything,
Speaker 3: not at all. Friends, relatives, people in my life love them,
Speaker 3: their family to me, not an issue in John Hannay's world.
Speaker 3: But the fact that he said that, and Kathy Hochl
Speaker 3: says Lee Zeldon, all your Trump guys, get out of bus,
Speaker 3: go down to Florida, get the hell out of here,
Speaker 3: get the hell out of here. So I got the
Speaker 3: hell out and I barely go back. You know. It's
Speaker 3: so they did do it. But back to energy if
Speaker 3: America but in one way to save New York would
Speaker 3: be fracky. It's the dumbest decision ever. You could lower
Speaker 3: taxes in California and New York immediately if you just
Speaker 3: tap into the energy rich the energy resources both states
Speaker 3: out if America. If Donald Trump is able to succeed
Speaker 3: and providing all of Western Europe with their energy needs,
Speaker 3: we will be an energy rich country. What does that mean?
Speaker 3: We can pay off that debt, we can lower our taxes,
Speaker 3: The American people can benefit even from the resources to
Speaker 3: shared resources we have. I'll give you an example. If
Speaker 3: you are a residence citizen of Alaska, and they sell
Speaker 3: you don't pay the income taxes. They give you a
Speaker 3: check every year because you share the energy resources of
Speaker 3: that state. Most people don't know that. One other thing
Speaker 3: I would do. And the President is going to allow
Speaker 3: Elon Musk to come in. That's why I know he's
Speaker 3: looking to get rid of two trillion dollars in spending. Well,
Speaker 3: we tried this once before in the Reagan years. It
Speaker 3: was called the Grace Commission, and they look for ways
Speaker 3: to get rid of waste, fraud, and abuse. And they
Speaker 3: heat the best, brightest business minds in America and they
Speaker 3: came up with all these ideas. How many Steven a
Speaker 3: quick pop quiz of the hundreds of ideas they came
Speaker 3: up with, how many do you think Congress adopted?
Speaker 2: Maybe two.
Speaker 3: Zero zero. They're addicted to spending. They get their power
Speaker 3: through spending. And there's another idea that I would implement.
Speaker 3: And I talked to Trump in his first term about it.
Speaker 3: I've not talked to recently about it. It was put
Speaker 3: together by a Florida congressman at the time, Connie Mack.
Speaker 3: It was called the Penny Plan. And every year what
Speaker 3: they have what's called baseline budgeting, and every year in government,
Speaker 3: every single department they build in an increase seven percent
Speaker 3: a year, every year, seven years, et cetera. Eliminate baseline budgeting.
Speaker 3: Don't impact social security and medicare as a matter of fact,
Speaker 3: you need to replenish the lock box that they raided
Speaker 3: and stole from. And once they because they're headed towards
Speaker 3: in solveigncy. Once they do that, except for defense, everything
Speaker 3: else has got to stay remain constant for six or
Speaker 3: seven years. You cut one or two cents out of
Speaker 3: every dollar that you're spending now, and you'll meet a
Speaker 3: balanced budget. The last time we balanced the budget, it
Speaker 3: was Nu Gingrich when he was a speaker and Bill
Speaker 3: Clinton is present.
Speaker 2: They did in nineteen ninety four.
Speaker 1: Let me get to you personally on a couple of hours.
Speaker 1: Check this out. I often joke about this. I often
Speaker 1: joke about this. You've heard me joke about this, but
Speaker 1: you're not offended by it. I want to do that
Speaker 1: to you. I've said to.
Speaker 2: People, and obviously I'm being very facetious here.
Speaker 1: If a Republican shot somebody in broad daylight on Fifth Avenue,
Speaker 1: New York City, the first words.
Speaker 2: Out of your mouth would be the Democrats.
Speaker 1: Did the first everything that anything that you come up
Speaker 1: with that the Conservatives do, the Democrats are bigger culprits.
Speaker 2: When in this when Steve, when is this edition?
Speaker 3: This is Stephen trying to be provoking. I'm just asking,
Speaker 3: I'm just playing your game. I'm telling you when Republicans
Speaker 3: are wrong. I have a history of calling them out
Speaker 3: when they spend too much money, when they go for
Speaker 3: stopgap measures, and and continuing when they don't fight for
Speaker 3: the things they say they're going to fight.
Speaker 2: That's not what I'm saying watching that day, That's not
Speaker 2: what i'm saying.
Speaker 3: Spoken.
Speaker 2: No, No, that's not what I'm saying. I'm not questioning that.
Speaker 2: It's absolutely true.
Speaker 1: I've seen you attack many of Republicans when you think
Speaker 1: they're wrong.
Speaker 2: I'm only talking about them.
Speaker 1: It compareson to Democrats, particularly when they're running for office,
Speaker 1: because I know on a Republican's worst day, you will
Speaker 1: pick them ahead of any Democrat on a planet that
Speaker 1: I know about you.
Speaker 3: I'm lying, Well, admit, listen, I'll tell you one day
Speaker 3: I'm a little I'm not going to say I don't
Speaker 3: like the word proud. I say I'm proud that I
Speaker 3: did this. I'm grateful that I have a microphone and
Speaker 3: a camera every day in front of the NFL. I
Speaker 3: thank my audience, I thank your audience, and I am
Speaker 3: humbled and grateful for it. However, I am I am
Speaker 3: appreciative that we did coverage in this election that nobody
Speaker 3: else did. Nobody. I played Kamala Harris in her own
Speaker 3: words supporting the radical ninety three trillion dollar renew deal
Speaker 3: and heard her own voice saying, and she would eliminate
Speaker 3: the filibuster to pass it. She co sponsored that bill
Speaker 3: with Bernie Sanders. Nobody else covered that. I she co
Speaker 3: sponsored with Bernie Sanders again, Medicare for all, and she's
Speaker 3: on tape saying she would eliminate the choice of private
Speaker 3: health care she talked about many times. And I played
Speaker 3: those tapes of mandatory gun buybacks. That's called conferenceation.
Speaker 2: And you never bought her changed positions. I never want
Speaker 2: to play.
Speaker 3: Her position on every single major issue in her own words.
Speaker 3: And I put together and I put it on my website,
Speaker 3: Kamala and her own words, the Kamala Files. And guess what,
Speaker 3: I deputized everybody in my audience. We're on seven hundred
Speaker 3: and fifty radio stations. Serious x Adam. I do a podcast,
Speaker 3: as you know, and I'm on Fox every night, and
Speaker 3: I put it together and people shared it with their
Speaker 3: friends and neighbors. They're coworkers, strangers, social media. And guess
Speaker 3: what I take credit for people knowing about that radicalism?
Speaker 3: Stephen A. Is there one person you know that wants
Speaker 3: taxpayer funded sex change surgeries, convicted felon's or illegal immigrants?
Speaker 3: Is there one one person in your life?
Speaker 2: No? But you also, but you also.
Speaker 3: You wouldn't know it except for people like me. But
Speaker 3: you're welcome.
Speaker 1: But you're very big on character as well, and we
Speaker 1: all know that there are question marks about Trump's character
Speaker 1: in a lot of people's eyes.
Speaker 2: I'm being kind to you.
Speaker 3: What you want to talk You want to talk about
Speaker 3: Kamala's husband, Okay.
Speaker 1: See he's not going to He didn't rub for president Shawan.
Speaker 1: He didn't rub for president. It was it was Tama
Speaker 1: habits president Donald Trump.
Speaker 3: You see talking about Doug.
Speaker 2: That's all.
Speaker 3: By the way. Did I talk Did I talk a
Speaker 3: lot about Doug on my show?
Speaker 2: No? You did not.
Speaker 3: No I did not, No, you did not. You know, Look,
Speaker 3: I don't know what's true or not true. I as
Speaker 3: a Christian, I do believe we've all sinned, included starting
Speaker 3: right here. Look, look, look closely, we've all sinned and
Speaker 3: fallen short of the glory of God. If we're looking
Speaker 3: for perfection in a leader, you're never going to find it.
Speaker 3: And what I've learned about the smartest, brightest, most created,
Speaker 3: most all the people in the world, and I actually
Speaker 3: put you in that category, except not in this category.
Speaker 3: Is their blessing? Is their curse? A lot of times
Speaker 3: what makes them great can also be could also hurt
Speaker 3: them sometimes, and I accept that that brilliance, that gift.
Speaker 3: You know, look at the imperfect people in the Bible.
Speaker 3: You know, here's here's King David, right, And I'm not comparing.
Speaker 3: I'm not talking about Trump anymore, but that's that's off
Speaker 3: the table. I'm not talking about Kamal or her husband.
Speaker 3: But you know, God picks certain people at certain times,
Speaker 3: and he picks the most interesting figures in the world,
Speaker 3: doesn't he. I mean, he blessed both of us. You know,
Speaker 3: we have very similar backgrounds, and to have an opportunity
Speaker 3: to talk to large audiences every day, that is such
Speaker 3: a blessing and neither one of us deserve it be
Speaker 3: very especially you.
Speaker 1: And yeah, I'll take that, especially me. I'll take I'll
Speaker 1: take a showing. But listen, I'll say this to you
Speaker 1: in all honesty. I've been dying to ask you this
Speaker 1: one question, no matter what election there is, because I've
Speaker 1: been listening to you for twenty years. We've been friends
Speaker 1: for twenty years. You've always been there for me, and I've.
Speaker 2: Always appreciated that.
Speaker 1: That's why we've been such good friends, because you've.
Speaker 2: Always if you've always had my back.
Speaker 1: I got to ask you. I've got to ask you.
Speaker 1: You've talked on numerous occasions, through numerous elections, how fearful
Speaker 1: you were of the state of our country if the
Speaker 1: Left had won an election.
Speaker 2: Barack Obama won.
Speaker 1: Ultimately in two thousand and eight, of course, and obviously
Speaker 1: Clinton at one in ninety two. We get all of that,
Speaker 1: But I ask you, honestly, going into this election. Was
Speaker 1: I wrong in surmising that you were genuinely more fearful
Speaker 1: of the state of our country for this past election
Speaker 1: that just happened last week more so than any other
Speaker 1: election you can recall in your adult.
Speaker 3: Life by far. And I said it. I said it often.
Speaker 3: This to me, this was an inflection point. If we
Speaker 3: would have kept the borders open the way we have.
Speaker 3: The risk is already so high of really bad things
Speaker 3: happening in this country that I pray to God that
Speaker 3: it doesn't happen on that issue, the New Green Deal
Speaker 3: that she co sponsored her bills, she never got asked
Speaker 3: that question by the legacy media. That's why legacy media
Speaker 3: is dead. You know, with everything they threw at Trump, ABC, NBCCBS,
Speaker 3: you know, Washington Post, New York Times, USA Today, all
Speaker 3: these liberal cable channels, all these celebrities, all these endorsements.
Speaker 3: Fuck the American people. They don't care what they say.
Speaker 3: I think you're saying anymore. They now have They have
Speaker 3: found talk radio, they have found podcasting, they have found
Speaker 3: Fox News. They now have alternatives that they didn't have
Speaker 3: years and years but started in this business. And so yeah,
Speaker 3: and I'll tell you why, because the New Green Deal
Speaker 3: would have destroyed capitalism. I don't want to live in
Speaker 3: a country where we have government run healthcare. What is
Speaker 3: it tell me what government runs? Well, now, look at
Speaker 3: most of the schools. They're horrible. They can't keep towns
Speaker 3: and cities safe and secure so people can pursue happiness.
Speaker 3: You know, tell me, how is it you We're going
Speaker 3: to give more power and authority to the people that
Speaker 3: raided the lock box or Social Security and Medicare that
Speaker 3: are now headed towards insolveigncy. The same people that won't
Speaker 3: control our borders and follow the laws that exist in
Speaker 3: this country, but they take it a step further. They
Speaker 3: aid in a bet in the law breaking. Why do
Speaker 3: people have confidence in a government to promise, you know, uh,
Speaker 3: you're going to keep your doctor, keep your plan, and
Speaker 3: the average family is going to save, you know, on
Speaker 3: average twenty five hundred dollars a year, and millions lose
Speaker 3: their doctors, millions lose their plans. Forty percent of the
Speaker 3: country has one Obama Care exchange option and everybody's paying
Speaker 3: two hundred and fifty to three hundred percent more. Why
Speaker 3: do people put their faith in the government. I believe
Speaker 3: in the individual. I believe in the cause of freedom.
Speaker 3: May I answer that with freedom comes responsibility. I have
Speaker 3: since the time I am eight years old, worked in
Speaker 3: my life. I don't you know these people that work
Speaker 3: eight hour days, I don't know. There's nobody in astment
Speaker 3: my world that I know that's successful that works eight
Speaker 3: hours a day. I don't stop working. I work because
Speaker 3: it's my passion and it's my job. It is what
Speaker 3: I do, and I work hard and I the rest
Speaker 3: of the time, I'm I'm a bit of a hermit,
Speaker 3: as you know, and I hang out with my family
Speaker 3: in front.
Speaker 1: And when you and I and when you and I
Speaker 1: have had these these conversations and you've always thrown these
Speaker 1: questions back to me, I've openly confessed. I remember you
Speaker 1: were shocked when I told you. I said, listen, my
Speaker 1: mother and father voted Democrat every day of the week.
Speaker 2: But I don't know what the hell that was for.
Speaker 1: Because we lived a very in a very conservative household
Speaker 1: all my life.
Speaker 2: I've never recalled it being a liberal. It was conservative.
Speaker 2: So you had me there.
Speaker 1: But I also talked about, you know, splitting the baby
Speaker 1: down the middle, and I met that this way.
Speaker 2: The points that you just articulated.
Speaker 1: Fine, but let's go to federal route for a second.
Speaker 1: As a black man, I'm thinking about the Civil Rights
Speaker 1: Act of nineteen sixty four, I'm thinking about the Voter
Speaker 1: Rights Act of nineteen sixty five. There is a place
Speaker 1: for federal intervention there is a place for federal oversight.
Speaker 1: I said, maybe not with everything, but with some things.
Speaker 1: And I brought that up to you.
Speaker 3: Question, who was it that philipbustered the sixty four Civil
Speaker 3: Rights Act and the sixty five Voting Rights Act. Do
Speaker 3: you know the guy's name? It was a guy by
Speaker 3: the name Robert, the former klemsman KKK Byrd.
Speaker 2: I called, yes, Robert North and West Virginia.
Speaker 3: You know that Robert Byrd and Joe Biden. Very few
Speaker 3: people seem to know this. I pointed it out during
Speaker 3: the twenty twenty election and many times since that they
Speaker 3: partnered and the only one to call him out on
Speaker 3: the Democratic side during the primary in twenty twenty it
Speaker 3: was Kamala. Interestingly, that Joe partnered with somebody he referred
Speaker 3: to as his mentor and his friend. We were friendsmen
Speaker 3: and the guy that philipbustered the civil rights side, and
Speaker 3: he partnered with him to stop the integration to public schools.
Speaker 3: Joe Biden's words, he didn't want published schools and bussing
Speaker 3: at the time, he didn't want them to become racial jungles.
Speaker 3: Did you know that Joe Biden said that? Or am
Speaker 3: I teaching something new today.
Speaker 1: No, I'm aware. I'm aware, no question about it. I
Speaker 1: brought it up, Kamala brought it up. So we can't
Speaker 1: escape that.
Speaker 2: Sean. I'm going to let you get out of here,
Speaker 2: but I got one more question for you.
Speaker 3: Wait a minute. I wanted to talk about one last thing.
Speaker 2: Okay, you asked.
Speaker 3: You came on my show after the election. I watched you,
Speaker 3: You went on another show, and then I watched you.
Speaker 3: You came on my show. Yep, And there's very few
Speaker 3: people that were as you and I know how you
Speaker 3: want with the vote to go. I've been on the
Speaker 3: air many times after an election going away. I didn't
Speaker 3: want it to go, and I try to show the
Speaker 3: same respect and I don't sit there and cry. You've
Speaker 3: got women now shaving their heads, pledging to divorce their
Speaker 3: husbands and pledging to never have sex with men again,
Speaker 3: which is up their choice. I'm not going to get
Speaker 3: puffed in their private life. But it's crazy you asked,
Speaker 3: very you just brought up how does America if you
Speaker 3: and I can be friends. We don't agree on all
Speaker 3: these issues. We don't agree on every sports issue, we
Speaker 3: don't agree on every political issue. How do we reconcile
Speaker 3: the idea that there's half the country that wants open
Speaker 3: borders and half the country that wants secure borders. How
Speaker 3: do you reconcile those that want, you know, ev mandates
Speaker 3: and refrigerator mandates and dishwasher mandates and washer drying mandates,
Speaker 3: and those that believe in freedom. How do we reconcile
Speaker 3: those that want energy independence and those that want the
Speaker 3: band fracking and offshore drilling. How do we reconcile those
Speaker 3: that believe in law and order so we can be
Speaker 3: safe and secure to pursue happiness versus defundus man, is.
Speaker 2: What I think.
Speaker 3: How we do deal radical marks and socialism with capitalism? Now,
Speaker 3: that's a deep and profound question right now. The way
Speaker 3: we are dealing with it is one side wins and
Speaker 3: one side loses. Is there a middle ground? Tell me?
Speaker 3: I think I'll.
Speaker 1: Answer that question as a lead into my very last
Speaker 1: question to you.
Speaker 2: There's a happy.
Speaker 1: Medium, is long as there's common ground on people wanting
Speaker 1: America to be as great as it's supposed to be,
Speaker 1: considering the fact that we're the richest country in the world. See,
Speaker 1: I think the part that some people miss and I'm
Speaker 1: not accusing you of this. There are some people whose
Speaker 1: definition or whose vision of America in terms of the
Speaker 1: vision that they want, they want to see America burned
Speaker 1: to the ground.
Speaker 2: They want to see America crumble. See people like that
Speaker 2: you can't talk to.
Speaker 3: Because I'm not gonna say.
Speaker 1: I see how you see, how you see how you
Speaker 1: do Now, I'm not going to say that.
Speaker 2: I'm not going to say that.
Speaker 1: What I'm saying to you is that you might have
Speaker 1: a different vision of America in terms of what it
Speaker 1: will take to make America what it's supposed to be.
Speaker 1: Then I but if we both want America to be great,
Speaker 1: it's just about our vision. You got to make sure
Speaker 1: to take those in a bowl and separate them from
Speaker 1: those you really want America to burn to the ground.
Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 3: How do you reconcile open borders, closed borders, energy and
Speaker 3: dependence and dominance and no drilling or fracking. How do
Speaker 3: you reconcile defund dismantle the police, and no bawn laws
Speaker 3: versus law and order. How do you reconcile any of
Speaker 3: these issues? I don't seem the ground to be honest, Okay,
Speaker 3: I really don't see it. Okay, Well, we'll defund half
Speaker 3: the police departments. We'll dismantle half of them, and then
Speaker 3: we'll fund the other half. It's not gonna work that way.
Speaker 3: We'll open half the border, but not the other half
Speaker 3: of the border. Well, well, let me say, let me
Speaker 3: say this to you.
Speaker 2: I'll tell you what we do it. I'll tell you
Speaker 2: what and this and this again. This leads to my
Speaker 2: last question.
Speaker 1: I think if you have an economy where the vast
Speaker 1: majority of Americans are flourishing.
Speaker 2: I think if you have safe streets in America.
Speaker 1: I think the combination of those two things and we're
Speaker 1: moving in a forward direction where people are able to
Speaker 1: look at it and say, I don't have everything I want,
Speaker 1: but I can't deny that this country is in a
Speaker 1: good place. I think you'll find folks saying, Okay, that's
Speaker 1: where we're what we're addicted to, We're fine. My question
Speaker 1: to you, last question is this, Donald Trump, what a
Speaker 1: deficit in the trillions?
Speaker 2: Okay, when you consider the plight, When.
Speaker 1: You consider that, economists came out and said the money
Speaker 1: that he's going to have to spend, it's just going
Speaker 1: to it's going to elevate the deficit even more, which
Speaker 1: will put us in even worse times. All of those
Speaker 1: things being considered, Sean Hannity, how do you think he
Speaker 1: is going to end up doing and what do we
Speaker 1: get to do to define whether or not Donald Trump
Speaker 1: has a successful presidency over the upcoming four years.
Speaker 3: Well, you're asking two separate questions, Okay, okay, So for
Speaker 3: him to succeed, now, we have to rebuild our military.
Speaker 3: Our military we have we're almost back to where we
Speaker 3: were when Reagan took office, a huge gap of vulnerability.
Speaker 3: China and Russia have hypersonic technology, we don't. Stephen A.
Speaker 3: We got to spend a lot of money on that.
Speaker 3: We're going to have to spend a lot of money
Speaker 3: to secure our border. We're going to have to spend
Speaker 3: lot of money to shore up social security and medicare.
Speaker 3: We're going to have to spend a lot of money
Speaker 3: to make sure the border is secure and that towns
Speaker 3: and cities are safe and secure. And let's be honest,
Speaker 3: Democratic run cities have the worst schools. They suck, and
Speaker 3: we are robbing our children of the latter to success
Speaker 3: and the talent that God gave them. So that all
Speaker 3: costs money. But I gave you the answer earlier. There's
Speaker 3: only two ways to deal with that. One, energy will
Speaker 3: make this country the richest country on Earth. Two, you've
Speaker 3: got to cut back on spending. I like the Penny
Speaker 3: plan that I mentioned. I like Elon Musk getting rid
Speaker 3: of waste brought and abuse. That would be very helpful.
Speaker 3: Is there a magic Is there is this something that
Speaker 3: will be accomplished by year two. No, it will not.
Speaker 3: It's going to take the full four years. Let's see
Speaker 3: where we are. It will be deficit spending because there
Speaker 3: are things he has to do. We've got to be
Speaker 3: able to battle the worst geopolitical foes one could imagine
Speaker 3: in China, Russia, Iran, and maybe North Korea, especially the Iranians.
Speaker 3: The Iranians are very dangerous right now because they have
Speaker 3: this radical convert or die madness. They're funding four proxy
Speaker 3: wars against Israel. They have pledged death to America, death
Speaker 3: to Israel. It's extraordinarily dangerous. So we've got to rebuild
Speaker 3: a military. With that said, his legacy will be this.
Speaker 3: If Donald Trump keeps the promise to secure the border,
Speaker 3: if he keeps the promise to get our cities more
Speaker 3: safe and secure, if he keeps the promise to get
Speaker 3: the economy back on track for everyday Americans, the people
Speaker 3: that really do make this country great, and every small
Speaker 3: town in every big city, if he keeps the promise
Speaker 3: to make us energy dominant, if he restores America's place
Speaker 3: in the world where our adversaries in top geopolitical foes
Speaker 3: respect us again and are fearful in a good way,
Speaker 3: healthy way of this president. I think this is going
Speaker 3: to not only was this the greatest political comeback in
Speaker 3: the modern era in mic go down as one of
Speaker 3: the greatest, may go down as the greatest political comeback
Speaker 3: ever only happened one other time in this country. And
Speaker 3: knowing him privately publicly, I know that's where his gut
Speaker 3: is and he's going to hit the ground running so
Speaker 3: freaking hard on day one. Don't be surprised. It's going
Speaker 3: to be hyperbole. He's throwing out all these people that
Speaker 3: didn't respect our laws, our borders, our sovereignty. Oh, he's
Speaker 3: a racist, these are this, He's that he's a monster
Speaker 3: in tournament camps. All that rhetoric is going to happen.
Speaker 3: But we got to get the country safe and secure
Speaker 3: and people come in legally, and you're welcome and be
Speaker 3: a part of our family. Just do it legally, please.
Speaker 3: So that's a prediction. But I think he is legacy.
Speaker 3: He is primed to have a legacy that'll be second
Speaker 3: then none if he does it right.
Speaker 2: You've been on message. You do not change. You feel
Speaker 2: what you feel. You've always said it, You've done it repeatedly.
Speaker 1: I've told this to people many Occasions's got seven over.
Speaker 1: You're on seven hundred and fifty radio stations across the
Speaker 1: United States of America, plus serious XM Radio. You got
Speaker 1: three hours a day on radio, then another hour every
Speaker 1: week night on Fox News Channel Okay at nine pm
Speaker 1: Eastern Standard Tom. Every single conversation, every single interview, every
Speaker 1: single monologue.
Speaker 2: Every single show, you say the same damn thing. I
Speaker 2: keep tired. I get tired of people. Tell me Steven
Speaker 2: and get him. You gotta say, I mean, what bring
Speaker 2: this up? Bringing that I said? You just don't understand.
Speaker 2: The message will not change.
Speaker 1: You don't understand he says the same damn thing every
Speaker 1: day that they've been doing it.
Speaker 3: But I do. But I say, you're asking me questions
Speaker 3: why I believe what I believe. I'll tell you why
Speaker 3: go ahead, because I believe in the and the principles
Speaker 3: of conservative because conservatism works. I wrote a chapter in
Speaker 3: my last book. I saw I'm never going to write
Speaker 3: another book, and I wrote it in twenty twenty. It
Speaker 3: went to number one, Thank you, thank God. And it
Speaker 3: was called Livery or Die America in the World on
Speaker 3: the Brink, And I had a chapter about socialism in there,
Speaker 3: and it's called socialism. It's history of failure. I don't
Speaker 3: care what name you slap on it, what manifestation it
Speaker 3: takes on. The New Green Deal to me, represented socialism, Marxism,
Speaker 3: whatever world you want to do, whatever label you want
Speaker 3: to place on, And every single time it has been tried,
Speaker 3: it always ends the same way. Unfulfilled promises more poverty
Speaker 3: and a loss of freedom. How much freedom did you
Speaker 3: give up in the name of false security for Obamacare?
Speaker 3: Or why is social security and medicare going towards insolvency?
Speaker 3: And why can't our government have better schools, keep our
Speaker 3: border secure and make sure our towns and cities are
Speaker 3: saved man? To me, it's about people, America. We need
