And that's 27 00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:35,240 Speaker 1: my message to these dopey swamp people in Washington, and yeah, 28 00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:40,480 Speaker 1: mostly the Republicans. It's the Republicans that promised in give 29 00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:44,840 Speaker 1: us the House, were repealed and replaced Obamacare, give us 30 00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:48,400 Speaker 1: the House and and and Senate in will repeal and 31 00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:52,120 Speaker 1: we replaced Obamacare, and give us the House and the Senate. 32 00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:55,120 Speaker 1: You have a president sitting as at his desk. He'll 33 00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:58,280 Speaker 1: sign what you send him to get on the road 34 00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:02,280 Speaker 1: to fixing the mess of eight thousand dollars on average 35 00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:07,120 Speaker 1: premium increases by these because of Obamacare and the millions 36 00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:10,880 Speaker 1: that lost their doctors and their coverage, and and the 37 00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:15,880 Speaker 1: death spiral that has now become so rampant nationwide, where 38 00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:18,079 Speaker 1: how many what percentage of counties in the country of 39 00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:22,360 Speaker 1: one option one and in some cases they'll have zero options. 40 00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:24,560 Speaker 1: And you have the head of the health care industry 41 00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:27,160 Speaker 1: saying this is a death spiral. We can't afford it, 42 00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:30,519 Speaker 1: we're losing, we're out. At least the House bill is 43 00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:32,920 Speaker 1: imperfect as it was, and I told you it was imperfect, 44 00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:35,840 Speaker 1: and it was frustrating then, because what did we learn. 45 00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:38,160 Speaker 1: We learned at least a hundred House Republicans were full 46 00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:42,040 Speaker 1: of crap. They had never had any intention of repealing 47 00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 1: and replacing Obamacare, never, not one they There wasn't even 48 00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:48,920 Speaker 1: a thought to them. But we knew that at the 49 00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:52,000 Speaker 1: time because every time they would have a show vote, 50 00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:57,880 Speaker 1: some fifty sixty show votes, they never used their constitutional authority, 51 00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:00,760 Speaker 1: the power of the purse, where can actually put some 52 00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:03,200 Speaker 1: teeth into it and defund Obamacare. They didn't want to 53 00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:05,720 Speaker 1: do that. They want to take a risk. Well now 54 00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:08,359 Speaker 1: we're now, we're at a tipping point. So now you 55 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:12,799 Speaker 1: got the Senate and healthcare failed again today. And then 56 00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:15,240 Speaker 1: Mitch McConnell, Well, first, let me play the president. I 57 00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:19,440 Speaker 1: won't play Mitch McConnell. Here's the president reacting with disappointment 58 00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:22,920 Speaker 1: and saying that he's not gonna own Obamacare. Let it foul, 59 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:25,120 Speaker 1: let it fail. Well, it's failing, and it's in a 60 00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:28,120 Speaker 1: desk spiral that's not going to help the people that 61 00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:32,320 Speaker 1: currently need help desperately. Listen to the President. We've had 62 00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:34,200 Speaker 1: a lot of victories, but we haven't had a victory 63 00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:39,920 Speaker 1: in healthcare. We're disappointed. I am very disappointed because, again, 64 00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:42,560 Speaker 1: even as a civilian, for seven years, I've been hearing 65 00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:47,280 Speaker 1: about healthcare, and I've been hearing about repeal and replace, 66 00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:50,760 Speaker 1: and Obamacare is a total disaster. Some states had over 67 00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:56,160 Speaker 1: two increase, two hundred percent increase in their premiums, and 68 00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:59,320 Speaker 1: the deductibles are through the roof. It's an absolute disaster. 69 00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:04,240 Speaker 1: And I think you'll also agree that I've been saying 70 00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:07,520 Speaker 1: for a long time, let Obamacare fail, and then everybody's 71 00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:10,320 Speaker 1: going to have to come together and fix it and 72 00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:13,200 Speaker 1: come up with a new plan and a plan that's 73 00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:16,040 Speaker 1: really good for the people with much lower premiums, much 74 00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:20,400 Speaker 1: lower costs, and much better protection. I've been saying that, Mike. 75 00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:23,599 Speaker 1: I think you'll agree for a long time. Let Obamacare fail. 76 00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:26,320 Speaker 1: It'll be a lot easier. And I think we're probably 77 00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:29,800 Speaker 1: in that position where we'll just let Obamacare fail. We're 78 00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:31,480 Speaker 1: not going to own it. I'm not going to own it. 79 00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:33,240 Speaker 1: I can tell you the Republicans are not going to 80 00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:36,719 Speaker 1: own it. Will let Obamacare fail, and then the Democrats 81 00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:38,480 Speaker 1: are gonna come to us and they're gonna say, how 82 00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:40,760 Speaker 1: do we fix it? How do we fix it, or 83 00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:43,480 Speaker 1: how do we come up with a new plan. So 84 00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:46,080 Speaker 1: we'll see what happens. There's some other things going on 85 00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:49,520 Speaker 1: right now as we speak. But I am disappointed because 86 00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:52,200 Speaker 1: for so many years I've been hearing repeal and replace. 87 00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:56,440 Speaker 1: I'm sitting in the Oval office right next door, pen 88 00:04:56,680 --> 00:05:00,880 Speaker 1: in hand, waiting to side something, and I'll waiting and 89 00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:03,200 Speaker 1: eventually we're going to get something done and it's going 90 00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:06,440 Speaker 1: to be very good. But Obamacare is a big failure 91 00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:09,680 Speaker 1: and it has to be changed. We have to go 92 00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:11,640 Speaker 1: to a plan that works. We have to go to 93 00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:14,880 Speaker 1: a much less expensive plan plan in terms of premiums, 94 00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:18,560 Speaker 1: and something will happen and it will be very good. 95 00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:20,479 Speaker 1: May not be as quick as we had hoped, but 96 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:23,240 Speaker 1: it's going to happen. Well, it's not going to be 97 00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:26,640 Speaker 1: as quick as we hope. And all I'm saying is 98 00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:31,320 Speaker 1: that they're just as in an excuse not now I 99 00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:35,000 Speaker 1: do give McConnell. McConnell can't get this done. I'm sorry, 100 00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:38,000 Speaker 1: McConnell does need to go. If they can't up their 101 00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:40,200 Speaker 1: urgency in the House, then Ryan's gonna need to go, 102 00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:42,920 Speaker 1: and they're gonna have to get people like Mark Meadows 103 00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:45,160 Speaker 1: or somebody that has a sense of urgency and a 104 00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:49,680 Speaker 1: desire to do the job and fulfill the promises that 105 00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:52,240 Speaker 1: they made. So McConnell responds today, which by the way, 106 00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:55,359 Speaker 1: is a great plan B. And the plan B is 107 00:05:55,600 --> 00:06:01,279 Speaker 1: we we we've talked about the bill which everybody woted for. Now, 108 00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:03,359 Speaker 1: in spite of the way it's reported, it is not 109 00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:06,880 Speaker 1: a complete repeal. And and that's why you know, when 110 00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:09,560 Speaker 1: I would debate rampaul a't at different times he said, 111 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:12,479 Speaker 1: let's go back to the bill. We promise we repeal it, 112 00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:15,040 Speaker 1: and that does give you options, and then it gets 113 00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:17,480 Speaker 1: you out of a lot of the reconciliation issues involved, 114 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:20,440 Speaker 1: and then you can build a transition planet. I have 115 00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:25,200 Speaker 1: a caveat. You can't have a repeal bill only and 116 00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:28,240 Speaker 1: then bulk it up with millions and millions and billions 117 00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:31,160 Speaker 1: and billions of new spending, and it just becomes a 118 00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:36,040 Speaker 1: boondoggle and just becomes another wasteful government big expansion that's 119 00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:38,520 Speaker 1: not gonna work for me if it's under the name 120 00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:41,280 Speaker 1: of let's repeal it and then we'll transition to free 121 00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:44,000 Speaker 1: market competition. There are great options out there, which I'll 122 00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:47,600 Speaker 1: get into in a minute. There are solutions to this problem. 123 00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:51,680 Speaker 1: We have been covering them for years, discussing them for years. 124 00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:55,040 Speaker 1: But here's what McConnell said, and the only thing I'll 125 00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:58,799 Speaker 1: tell you. As a practical matter, I wish it wasn't 126 00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:01,159 Speaker 1: the case. But as a practice matter, it really doesn't 127 00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:04,240 Speaker 1: seem to matter. Because Susan Collins and Lisa Murkowski and 128 00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:07,400 Speaker 1: Caputo have all said they won't vote for a straight 129 00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:10,840 Speaker 1: appeal repeal, and they all voted for it those that 130 00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:15,440 Speaker 1: are there in How do you justify voting for it 131 00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:20,240 Speaker 1: then and not now, except that you're playing hardcore politics 132 00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:25,160 Speaker 1: and you never meant what you said. It's so despicable. 133 00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:29,560 Speaker 1: This is the swamp anyway. So McConnell's repeal only bill 134 00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:34,920 Speaker 1: was passed by Congress in the exact same bill Republicans 135 00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:39,120 Speaker 1: passed that year. In other words, every Republican who voted 136 00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:43,640 Speaker 1: for repeal in but now they're gonna suddenly oppose it 137 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:46,520 Speaker 1: because it's real now, and there's a president that will 138 00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:49,520 Speaker 1: sign that bill, and it actually holds them accountable to 139 00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:52,560 Speaker 1: the promises that they make. Here's what he said. Everyone 140 00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:56,679 Speaker 1: knows about Obamacare, scott rocketing costs and it's plummeting choices 141 00:07:56,920 --> 00:08:01,240 Speaker 1: too often. However, this discussion same severe and abstract. They're 142 00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:04,600 Speaker 1: not just numbers on a page. These are the lives 143 00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:07,360 Speaker 1: of real people. These are the men and women we represent. 144 00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:11,680 Speaker 1: Americans who are hurting. Middle class families deserve better than 145 00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:15,160 Speaker 1: Obamacare's failures. We worked hard to provide them with a 146 00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:17,560 Speaker 1: better way. We did so in the knowledge that this 147 00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:21,080 Speaker 1: task would not be easy. We understood it would not 148 00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:23,800 Speaker 1: come quickly, but we knew that it was the right 149 00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:27,200 Speaker 1: thing to do, so we pushed forward anyway. I believe 150 00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:30,360 Speaker 1: we must continue to push forward now. I regret that 151 00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:34,440 Speaker 1: the effort to repeal and immediately replace the failures of 152 00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:39,560 Speaker 1: Obamacare will not be successful. That doesn't mean we should 153 00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:42,800 Speaker 1: give up. We will now try a different way to 154 00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:45,960 Speaker 1: bring the American people relief from Obamacare. I think we 155 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:49,040 Speaker 1: owe them at least that much. In the coming days, 156 00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:51,079 Speaker 1: the Senate will take up and vote on a repeal 157 00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:55,720 Speaker 1: of Obamacare combined with a stable two year transition period 158 00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:59,559 Speaker 1: as we work towards patients centered healthcare. A majority of 159 00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:02,160 Speaker 1: the Senate wanted to pass the same repeal legislation back 160 00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:07,400 Speaker 1: in President Obama vetoed it, then President Tom Trump. President 161 00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:10,880 Speaker 1: Trump will sign it now. Democrats were celebrating last night. 162 00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:14,360 Speaker 1: I hope they consider what they're celebrating. The American people 163 00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:17,920 Speaker 1: are hurting. They need relief, and it's regretful that our 164 00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:20,920 Speaker 1: Democratic colleagues decided early on that they did not want 165 00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:24,600 Speaker 1: to engage with us seriously in the process to deliver 166 00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:27,360 Speaker 1: that relief. But this doesn't have to be the end 167 00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:30,280 Speaker 1: of the story. Passing and repeal legislation will allow us 168 00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:32,720 Speaker 1: to accomplish what we need to do on behalf of 169 00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:35,680 Speaker 1: our people. Our Democratic friends have spoken a lot recently 170 00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:40,240 Speaker 1: about wanting bipartisan solutions. Passing this legislation will provide the 171 00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:44,920 Speaker 1: opportunity for centators of all parties to engage with a 172 00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:48,559 Speaker 1: fresh start and a new beginning for the American people 173 00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:54,440 Speaker 1: with it. I can totally completely support this, with one 174 00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:58,920 Speaker 1: caveat that they don't bulk get up with new government 175 00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:02,800 Speaker 1: and finlemen spending, which they're capable of now I have 176 00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:06,320 Speaker 1: I will say this, I um, I have been. My 177 00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:09,400 Speaker 1: frustration has been growing. You've heard me commenting now on 178 00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:12,080 Speaker 1: radio and TV for weeks to get their job done. 179 00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:19,600 Speaker 1: I do not understand breaking a seven year promise. I 180 00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:24,080 Speaker 1: do not understand how this is even a possibility that 181 00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:28,800 Speaker 1: it doesn't get done. It's beyond any comprehension of how 182 00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:33,400 Speaker 1: most of us live our lives. We all under promise 183 00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:37,680 Speaker 1: and over deliver. Most of us don't go to expensive 184 00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:41,040 Speaker 1: Senate dining room lunches. Most of us don't go to 185 00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:45,120 Speaker 1: the Senate barbershop. Most of us don't have the the 186 00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:47,840 Speaker 1: You know that for the next six months they have 187 00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:51,480 Speaker 1: thirty days or less scheduled on the calendar to work. 188 00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:55,760 Speaker 1: You don't go on a vacation, come back fifteen days working, 189 00:10:56,120 --> 00:11:00,200 Speaker 1: and then take another thirty day vacation. So here is 190 00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:06,880 Speaker 1: my idea and suggestion. Failure cannot be an option. I'll 191 00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:09,680 Speaker 1: support a full repeal of transition as long as you 192 00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:12,960 Speaker 1: don't bankrupt us in the process. I think that's actually 193 00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:16,160 Speaker 1: ultimately a better way to do it. Because I didn't 194 00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:19,200 Speaker 1: particularly love the House Bill at all. The only thing 195 00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:21,600 Speaker 1: the House build did was according to the CBO, lower 196 00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:26,839 Speaker 1: premiums by about and make it legal to get health 197 00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:30,120 Speaker 1: savings accounts these cooperatives of my friend dr Unger and 198 00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:35,040 Speaker 1: uh Umber in in Wichita Atlas MD. And it also 199 00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:38,360 Speaker 1: allowed in in this particular case, a lot of free 200 00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:41,880 Speaker 1: market competition health savings accounts. So it it created the 201 00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:44,840 Speaker 1: the venue, but it's still kept way too much of 202 00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:47,320 Speaker 1: an Obamacare in place. It did also eliminate the taxes. 203 00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:51,559 Speaker 1: So this is my advice for Mitch McConnell, if he 204 00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:54,480 Speaker 1: wants to stay in power, you need to get your 205 00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:57,920 Speaker 1: fifty two senators in a room. I know Senator McCain 206 00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:00,200 Speaker 1: said he can company when he's feeling better. We wish 207 00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:04,040 Speaker 1: him the best. Get all your senators in a room 208 00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:06,240 Speaker 1: and I get a big blackboard. I would bring in 209 00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:10,480 Speaker 1: and I'd say, put on a blackboard, do your job, 210 00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:15,600 Speaker 1: keep the promises you made the American people. And in 211 00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:18,400 Speaker 1: that room, I would make everybody take their cell phones 212 00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:22,600 Speaker 1: and and leave them outside, let their aids have them 213 00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:24,880 Speaker 1: outside the door. I'd I'd have it in a room 214 00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:28,160 Speaker 1: where nobody in the press can can listen in the 215 00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:30,720 Speaker 1: air ducks and and hear what you're all are saying. 216 00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:35,319 Speaker 1: And then I'd order plenty of water, Coca Cola, sprite, 217 00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:38,840 Speaker 1: Dr Pepper for Louis Gohmert and he likes Dr Pepper. 218 00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:42,319 Speaker 1: And I even I'll even throw in pizza. I'll send pizza, 219 00:12:42,920 --> 00:12:46,319 Speaker 1: and I throw in pizza, maybe Kentucky Fried Chicken. Not 220 00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:49,960 Speaker 1: not send it dining room, uh fair that they're used to. 221 00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:54,240 Speaker 1: And I turned the air condition off and I'd stay 222 00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:56,400 Speaker 1: in there and I'd make you all sweat it out 223 00:12:57,000 --> 00:13:01,040 Speaker 1: until you can barely tolerated anymore. And stay in there 224 00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:04,360 Speaker 1: and do what the American people do every day. That's 225 00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:08,520 Speaker 1: get up, keep their promises, do their job, and do 226 00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:11,760 Speaker 1: it till it's completed. And if you don't do that, 227 00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:15,280 Speaker 1: Senator McConnell, you need to resign, get out of the way. 228 00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:17,520 Speaker 1: Then we'll put in a new leader. And then he 229 00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:19,959 Speaker 1: could put everybody in a room and instead of pizza, 230 00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:23,240 Speaker 1: maybe we'll just give him pretzels this time, and then 231 00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:25,400 Speaker 1: to stay in the room until they hammer out a deal. 232 00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:27,320 Speaker 1: And if that person can't get it done, put another 233 00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:34,800 Speaker 1: person in there. Stop making excuses and get your job done. 234 00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:40,000 Speaker 1: Get it done. I don't want to hear it anymore. 235 00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:45,280 Speaker 1: Nine Sean, it's an epic failure. It is an epic. 236 00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:50,480 Speaker 1: It is it is a betrayal. Get your job done. 237 00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:53,280 Speaker 1: There's a trillion dollars in savings needed, so we can 238 00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:55,800 Speaker 1: move forward with an economic plan to get people out 239 00:13:55,840 --> 00:13:58,040 Speaker 1: of poverty, off of food stamps, back to work and 240 00:13:58,080 --> 00:14:03,439 Speaker 1: buying homes. Vacation Senate dining room can't take it anymore. 241 00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:08,280 Speaker 1: Covert operative Mitch Rap is ready for anything, but this 242 00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:11,600 Speaker 1: time the enemy is ready for him.

And these politicians they get 289 00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:47,560 Speaker 1: they get the job, and they want to be called 290 00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:51,440 Speaker 1: congressman and senator and governor and you know, whatever their 291 00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:54,480 Speaker 1: name is, whatever their title is, and they get it, 292 00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:58,280 Speaker 1: and they like it, and they their egos are are 293 00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:03,080 Speaker 1: satisfied and the whole notion of the people they were 294 00:17:03,160 --> 00:17:06,440 Speaker 1: that were running, that we're making promises, that I had 295 00:17:06,520 --> 00:17:10,639 Speaker 1: principal ideas that wanted to make the country better. All 296 00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:13,680 Speaker 1: of a sudden it becomes more important, begins, the balance 297 00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:17,199 Speaker 1: begins to shift, and they like the power, they like 298 00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:21,160 Speaker 1: the prestige more than they like the concept of serving 299 00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:24,760 Speaker 1: the American people. And so they think when they don't 300 00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:28,000 Speaker 1: take a risk, and they don't take a chance and 301 00:17:28,040 --> 00:17:32,399 Speaker 1: they're not courageous, that somehow they're they're taking the safe 302 00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:35,720 Speaker 1: route to stay in power and keep their prestige. But 303 00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:40,720 Speaker 1: the reality is, it's it's just it's not true. I mean, 304 00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:45,399 Speaker 1: it's there's a great, great divide here. The irony is 305 00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:48,760 Speaker 1: that if they would be courageous, if they would keep 306 00:17:48,800 --> 00:17:51,479 Speaker 1: their promises, if they would do the right thing, if 307 00:17:51,520 --> 00:17:55,240 Speaker 1: they would unite, unite us, remember Sir William Wallace, We're 308 00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:58,240 Speaker 1: gonna use a braveheart unite us. They do their job. 309 00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:03,400 Speaker 1: That's good politics. This is really dumb politically. We'll continue 310 00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:08,399 Speaker 1: till the top of the hour. Toll free telephone numbers 311 00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:11,320 Speaker 1: eight hundred nine for one Sean.

And I'm not kidding around. This is not 315 00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:23,840 Speaker 1: a joke to me. This is you. You. You go, 316 00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:26,680 Speaker 1: you take the fifty two senators, You get in a room, 317 00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:29,800 Speaker 1: you take their phones, you lock the door, and you 318 00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:32,920 Speaker 1: keep them in there. And you know what, our framers 319 00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:35,960 Speaker 1: and our founders didn't have air conditioning. Let's turn off 320 00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:38,920 Speaker 1: the air conditioner. And if we want to be really nice, 321 00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:41,000 Speaker 1: we'll send in a couple of fans so that some 322 00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:44,440 Speaker 1: of the older members don't pass out or get dehydrated. 323 00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:48,160 Speaker 1: Sending plenty of water, plenty of coke, plenty of sprite, 324 00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:50,639 Speaker 1: plenty of dr pepper for Louis Gohmert, he never stops 325 00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:54,879 Speaker 1: drinking it. Take care of him. Sending pizza, no Senate 326 00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:58,280 Speaker 1: dining room food. Sending Kentucky Fried chicken and burgers.

Send them in and put on the blackboard, 328 00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:06,080 Speaker 1: keeping our promises, serving the American people, That's what I 329 00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:08,560 Speaker 1: think they ought to do. And don't come out till 330 00:19:08,600 --> 00:19:11,359 Speaker 1: you're done. Don't come out till you can say the words. 331 00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:15,360 Speaker 1: We have an agreement. We agreed to repeal Obamacare. We've 332 00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:18,960 Speaker 1: agreed on the transition for two years. We have agreed 333 00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:21,159 Speaker 1: that we're going to allow and it's going to be 334 00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:25,320 Speaker 1: legal to get catastrophic plans, which what young people need. 335 00:19:25,359 --> 00:19:27,919 Speaker 1: Young people were screwed in in the Obamacare deal more 336 00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:30,439 Speaker 1: than anybody. They were forced to buy a plan they 337 00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:33,280 Speaker 1: didn't want, didn't need, so that the money would be 338 00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:36,000 Speaker 1: funneled to the sick and the elderly and the unensured. 339 00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:39,040 Speaker 1: So they can buy the catastrophic plan that they want. Now, 340 00:19:39,960 --> 00:19:42,440 Speaker 1: that's a smart thing to do. And then we can 341 00:19:42,440 --> 00:19:45,480 Speaker 1: create you know, health savings accounts right out of the box. 342 00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:48,000 Speaker 1: Why wait two years on that? And then we can 343 00:19:48,040 --> 00:19:51,919 Speaker 1: create healthcare cooperatives like our buddy Dr Number down at 344 00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:54,560 Speaker 1: Atlas m D in Wichita. They I mean, there are 345 00:19:54,600 --> 00:19:57,200 Speaker 1: so many easy answers. Can you imagine that every American 346 00:19:57,280 --> 00:20:01,880 Speaker 1: can actually get up see Air's health care for fifty 347 00:20:01,960 --> 00:20:05,080 Speaker 1: dollars a month. I mean, I've had Dr Number on 348 00:20:05,119 --> 00:20:08,679 Speaker 1: this program now since I didn't even know it was 349 00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:10,400 Speaker 1: that long until he told me the other day. Knows 350 00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:13,040 Speaker 1: the exact day it was in the summer. Five years. 351 00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:17,120 Speaker 1: We've had this man on the program five years, and 352 00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:20,120 Speaker 1: for for fifteen years, I've been talking about musk Grave 353 00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:22,560 Speaker 1: and Goodman and Patient Power, which was put out by 354 00:20:22,560 --> 00:20:26,639 Speaker 1: the Cato Institute, which identifies health savings accounts of the 355 00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:29,720 Speaker 1: perfect answer. In other words, you're building your own account 356 00:20:29,720 --> 00:20:32,480 Speaker 1: tax free throughout the years and your younger years. It 357 00:20:32,520 --> 00:20:35,679 Speaker 1: incentivises you to go and get a check up. And 358 00:20:35,720 --> 00:20:38,480 Speaker 1: that's basically all young people need unless they need stitches 359 00:20:38,560 --> 00:20:40,640 Speaker 1: or they break a bone or something like that. It's 360 00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:42,960 Speaker 1: it's not the health care that they need. Most health 361 00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:46,639 Speaker 1: care is for for your older years in life. But 362 00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:49,560 Speaker 1: if you have a catastrophic plan, then you have okay. 363 00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:51,879 Speaker 1: If God forbid, you have an accident, you get cancer, 364 00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:53,879 Speaker 1: you have a heart attack, you haven't you have an answer. 365 00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:56,640 Speaker 1: And whatever your deductible is. If you're making a two 366 00:20:56,680 --> 00:21:00,280 Speaker 1: thousand dollar deductible, okay, it's gonna cost more than a 367 00:21:00,280 --> 00:21:03,360 Speaker 1: five thousand dollar deductible than a ten thousand dollar deductible, 368 00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:05,840 Speaker 1: but at least it doesn't bankrupt you. If you have 369 00:21:06,040 --> 00:21:09,480 Speaker 1: a bad car accident doesn't bankrupt you. If you get cancer, 370 00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:11,520 Speaker 1: God forbid. Young people tend to not get it. They 371 00:21:11,560 --> 00:21:14,359 Speaker 1: get it, but not that often. Or if you have 372 00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:16,160 Speaker 1: a heart attack at a young age, a few people 373 00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:19,159 Speaker 1: have them, not many, but at least you'd be taken 374 00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:23,240 Speaker 1: care of it. See illegal under Obamacare. You have Obamacare 375 00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:26,120 Speaker 1: in a death spiral. You have the average family didn't 376 00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:29,560 Speaker 1: see it on average dollars a year savings every year 377 00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:32,760 Speaker 1: for the last eight years, just the opposite. The average 378 00:21:32,800 --> 00:21:36,040 Speaker 1: family has seen premium increases up to this year, about 379 00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:39,640 Speaker 1: eight thousand dollars on average per family, just the opposite 380 00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:42,840 Speaker 1: of what was promised. Health insures now have pulled out 381 00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:46,400 Speaker 1: of the marketplaces all over the country. There are more 382 00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:49,000 Speaker 1: counties that only have one option, and next year they 383 00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:52,200 Speaker 1: may have none because no one sure wants to do 384 00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:55,679 Speaker 1: this anymore because it's been a disaster for them. And 385 00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:57,879 Speaker 1: then on top of all that, then you've you've also 386 00:21:57,960 --> 00:22:02,720 Speaker 1: got you know, is no competition. There's where the government 387 00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:05,640 Speaker 1: intrusion into our life. How many millions lost their doctors 388 00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:10,800 Speaker 1: lost their plans, But imagine healthcare cooperatives now. Dr Umber 389 00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:14,840 Speaker 1: has been able to duplicate only what six eight hundred 390 00:22:14,840 --> 00:22:19,000 Speaker 1: places been able to duplicate what he did in Wichita, 391 00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:22,520 Speaker 1: and what he did is amazing. For fifty dollars a month, 392 00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:25,919 Speaker 1: you get unlimited medical care. Now. He also assumes that 393 00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:28,080 Speaker 1: most of his patients and he's told me that most 394 00:22:28,080 --> 00:22:29,840 Speaker 1: of his patients are like me. They dread going to 395 00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:32,360 Speaker 1: the doctor. I don't feel like going to the doctor. 396 00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:34,159 Speaker 1: I don't want to spend the day at the doctor. 397 00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:36,600 Speaker 1: I don't want Tom poking and prodding and telling me 398 00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:38,400 Speaker 1: to take my pants and my shirt off. I don't 399 00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:40,880 Speaker 1: feel like doing it. I tend to do it once 400 00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:43,720 Speaker 1: a year because my doctor traps me into some type 401 00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:45,879 Speaker 1: of and then when he traps me, then I got 402 00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:47,720 Speaker 1: to do everything he traps me into getting into his 403 00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:51,320 Speaker 1: office for under false pretenses. And then when I'm there, 404 00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:53,959 Speaker 1: you know, he gives me the whole works. All right, 405 00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:56,840 Speaker 1: Just get on the treadmill, it's only fifteen fifteen minutes fifteen, 406 00:22:56,840 --> 00:22:59,560 Speaker 1: and just do it, do it, do it, and I'll 407 00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:01,679 Speaker 1: do the trade head milk. And then he takes my 408 00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:04,080 Speaker 1: blood and then I don't even want to tell you 409 00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:05,480 Speaker 1: the rest of what he does, he does at all. 410 00:23:06,280 --> 00:23:08,879 Speaker 1: And then Okay, I walk away with a with a 411 00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:10,919 Speaker 1: clean bill of health. I can go home. Fine, I 412 00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:16,040 Speaker 1: feel better. But imagine if you can have catastrophic insurance, 413 00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:19,000 Speaker 1: which is very inexpensive depending on what your deductible is, 414 00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:23,480 Speaker 1: so God forbid you have that heart attack you have that. Yeah, 415 00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:27,480 Speaker 1: you get cancer, you have a bad accident, but more importantly, 416 00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:31,560 Speaker 1: your day to day health coverage, which is what people need. 417 00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:36,399 Speaker 1: That you have a doctor who's available seven for fifty 418 00:23:36,440 --> 00:23:40,480 Speaker 1: dollars a month, and that includes X rays and services 419 00:23:40,840 --> 00:23:45,119 Speaker 1: pharmaceuticals at a present discount because he negotiates directly with 420 00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:48,080 Speaker 1: the pharmaceutical corporations. You don't have to stop by the 421 00:23:48,119 --> 00:23:49,760 Speaker 1: drug store on the way home because he gives you 422 00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:51,280 Speaker 1: your medicine on the way out the door. If you 423 00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:55,119 Speaker 1: have a high blood pressure or or high cholesterol, he 424 00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:58,800 Speaker 1: does quick you know, blood tests right within his office. 425 00:23:58,840 --> 00:24:02,920 Speaker 1: That includes lab work, It includes X rays, and includes stitches, 426 00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:07,080 Speaker 1: even includes some broken bones in some instances. But anything 427 00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:10,000 Speaker 1: that's beyond that, then okay, you have your catastrophic insurance 428 00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:12,240 Speaker 1: that will cover that if you have a really bad 429 00:24:12,280 --> 00:24:15,680 Speaker 1: incident that happens to you. I mean, it's the perfect 430 00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:18,680 Speaker 1: one to combination. There is a solution, There is an answer. 431 00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:23,520 Speaker 1: It's not top down government run anything. And when you 432 00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:26,640 Speaker 1: allow the free markets and you allow the individual medical 433 00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:29,520 Speaker 1: practices competing for your healthcare dollars, how much do you 434 00:24:29,520 --> 00:24:32,919 Speaker 1: spend a year? Now you know what, what's the average 435 00:24:32,920 --> 00:24:36,480 Speaker 1: premium for an individual dollars a year. I know people 436 00:24:36,520 --> 00:24:39,639 Speaker 1: to pay that's for like a family plan, but individuals 437 00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:43,000 Speaker 1: are paying ten grand a year. It's an insane amount 438 00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:46,120 Speaker 1: of money. Not only are you covered of fifty bucks 439 00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:47,960 Speaker 1: a month for you, but then ten bucks a month 440 00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:50,760 Speaker 1: for all of your children. And that means if if 441 00:24:50,760 --> 00:24:53,919 Speaker 1: they get ear infections, or or they have a temperature, 442 00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:58,240 Speaker 1: or they get I don't know, chicken pox, that's all. 443 00:24:58,359 --> 00:25:01,879 Speaker 1: That's all covered. And the medicines are covered, and the 444 00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:04,320 Speaker 1: late night visits are covered, and the late nine phone 445 00:25:04,359 --> 00:25:06,640 Speaker 1: calls are covered. And you don't go to the stupid 446 00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:09,800 Speaker 1: emergency room or this idiotic facility with somebody you don't 447 00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:12,199 Speaker 1: even know who they are, and you can call your 448 00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:17,040 Speaker 1: doctor seven. So, I mean, there are great answers to 449 00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:21,360 Speaker 1: our healthcare dilemma. And I know the Left they were 450 00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:25,560 Speaker 1: giddy last night. Chuck Schumer's celebrating. What are they celebrating. 451 00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:30,400 Speaker 1: They're celebrating their failure. They're celebrating the disaster they caused. 452 00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:33,840 Speaker 1: But the bigger problem is Republicans. By the way, I 453 00:25:33,880 --> 00:25:36,639 Speaker 1: forgot to remind you, if you're a job seeker, go 454 00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:40,480 Speaker 1: to express pros dot com.

I'm 461 00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:03,840 Speaker 1: really I'd be very happy with the repeal of Obamacare, 462 00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:07,920 Speaker 1: the same thing they voted for with I'd be very 463 00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:10,919 Speaker 1: happy with that. But I'm not going to be happy 464 00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:13,720 Speaker 1: if they can't get it done. And if they can't 465 00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:15,679 Speaker 1: get it done, and they can't do their job and 466 00:26:15,680 --> 00:26:20,040 Speaker 1: they can't fulfill their promises, then they don't deserve to lead. 467 00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:25,600 Speaker 1: It's it's really that simple.

One of the 471 00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:41,640 Speaker 1: things that I learned very early with my kids. If 472 00:26:41,680 --> 00:26:43,560 Speaker 1: I promise I'm want to take it to Disney, if 473 00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:46,080 Speaker 1: you do a B or C, they'd rush off and 474 00:26:46,119 --> 00:26:47,760 Speaker 1: do a B and C and then I'd be stuck 475 00:26:47,800 --> 00:26:50,920 Speaker 1: going to Disney. And if you don't keep your promises, 476 00:26:50,920 --> 00:26:53,920 Speaker 1: how do they trust you. You've gotta keep your word. 477 00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:59,760 Speaker 1: I mean, we promise everyday news, information, commentary, entertainment not 478 00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:03,320 Speaker 1: gonna get anywhere else. Well, our day starts at seven 479 00:27:03,359 --> 00:27:06,919 Speaker 1: am on this program, and it's my great pleasure to 480 00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:09,200 Speaker 1: do it. It's an honor to be here, like it's 481 00:27:09,200 --> 00:27:12,399 Speaker 1: an honor to be on TV. I can't imagine not 482 00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:15,639 Speaker 1: working harder in this show every day, because that's what 483 00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:18,560 Speaker 1: I promised to do. I can't phone in all this information. 484 00:27:18,600 --> 00:27:21,439 Speaker 1: You gotta work, you gotta study. You know, there's a 485 00:27:21,480 --> 00:27:23,680 Speaker 1: general rule for every hour you spend on the air, 486 00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:27,280 Speaker 1: you spend hours behind the scenes preparing. I know a 487 00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:29,280 Speaker 1: lot of people, maybe they're far more talented than me, 488 00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:32,320 Speaker 1: can get away with not preparing. But I prepare. I 489 00:27:32,440 --> 00:27:40,160 Speaker 1: just have no patience with these broken promises. Seen repeal, repeal, repeal, repeal, repeal, repeal. 490 00:27:41,280 --> 00:27:44,200 Speaker 1: This was their big chance. Now all of a sudden, 491 00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:47,040 Speaker 1: they can't even do a simple repeal because three of 492 00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:49,920 Speaker 1: the people that voted to repeal in ten say, well, 493 00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:52,800 Speaker 1: I didn't mean that. Well, that means the only reason 494 00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:55,480 Speaker 1: they did vote in because they knew Obama was gonna 495 00:27:56,160 --> 00:28:01,120 Speaker 1: veto the bill. This is their big opportunity you got 496 00:28:01,280 --> 00:28:03,000 Speaker 1: they do. You know, I've looked it up in the 497 00:28:03,040 --> 00:28:09,520 Speaker 1: break The Republican controlled House has voted sixty eight times 498 00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:16,200 Speaker 1: to repeal or delay parts of Obamacare. Sixty eight times. 499 00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:20,560 Speaker 1: What is this? A big game, a big giant fraud 500 00:28:20,600 --> 00:28:24,399 Speaker 1: to these people. We actually are stupid enough that we 501 00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:30,720 Speaker 1: believed you people. If Republicans want to be successful, I'll 502 00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:33,720 Speaker 1: tell you right now, they don't fix this problem, they 503 00:28:33,800 --> 00:28:36,920 Speaker 1: are at risk, and this is very bad for the president. 504 00:28:37,800 --> 00:28:40,600 Speaker 1: They will be at risk and losing the House. I 505 00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:43,840 Speaker 1: promise you that's going to be the case, and it 506 00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:47,280 Speaker 1: should be the case. Well they'll all I promise you 507 00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:51,600 Speaker 1: there's gonna be primary after primary after primary, and this 508 00:28:51,680 --> 00:28:53,760 Speaker 1: should be a year in the Senate where they pick 509 00:28:53,840 --> 00:28:57,080 Speaker 1: up at least six seats. You know, I've been pointing 510 00:28:57,080 --> 00:28:59,320 Speaker 1: out now for days. All they need to do is this. 511 00:29:01,320 --> 00:29:03,960 Speaker 1: They need to repeal Obamacare. If they transition it, I'm 512 00:29:03,960 --> 00:29:06,000 Speaker 1: fine with that. I think most Americans would be fine 513 00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:08,440 Speaker 1: with that, as long as they don't break the budget 514 00:29:08,480 --> 00:29:11,200 Speaker 1: and break the bank in the process. If they get 515 00:29:11,240 --> 00:29:14,160 Speaker 1: that done, and you need the trillion dollars savings for 516 00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:16,320 Speaker 1: the economic plan and the budget plan. We'll talk to 517 00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:18,320 Speaker 1: the Budget Committee chairman later in the program. Today. We 518 00:29:18,320 --> 00:29:21,320 Speaker 1: got Rampaul coming up today, and Rampaul, by the way, 519 00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:25,200 Speaker 1: was pushing the idea of just full repeal like when 520 00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:27,440 Speaker 1: we first started this to pay even before the House 521 00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:29,480 Speaker 1: bill was passed. And I wasn't that thrilled with the 522 00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:34,560 Speaker 1: House bill, except the CBO scored it a thirty premium 523 00:29:34,560 --> 00:29:36,920 Speaker 1: savings for the average American and it opened up the 524 00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:39,960 Speaker 1: possibility of cooperatives and health savings accounts, and it was 525 00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:42,400 Speaker 1: a good first step, although not a complete repeal as 526 00:29:42,440 --> 00:29:45,200 Speaker 1: they had promised. But then we were all shocked to 527 00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:47,800 Speaker 1: find a hundred House Republicans didn't mean what they said. 528 00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:51,760 Speaker 1: But if they get these four things done, will be 529 00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:56,520 Speaker 1: They'll be fine. If they repeal this bill, put a 530 00:29:56,560 --> 00:30:01,960 Speaker 1: good practical bridge bill in place that offers free market competition, 531 00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:05,040 Speaker 1: that doesn't break the bank. If the American people can 532 00:30:05,040 --> 00:30:07,280 Speaker 1: see at least three hundred miles of the border wall 533 00:30:07,440 --> 00:30:09,600 Speaker 1: and the rest of the border wall, the seven eight 534 00:30:09,640 --> 00:30:12,800 Speaker 1: hundred miles, whatever it is, funded, and they can see 535 00:30:12,840 --> 00:30:17,120 Speaker 1: it with their own eyes. If that's done, if they 536 00:30:17,240 --> 00:30:20,720 Speaker 1: can really push the energy revolution, because the energy revolution 537 00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:24,040 Speaker 1: is gonna create If America dedicates itself to energy independence, 538 00:30:24,320 --> 00:30:28,240 Speaker 1: there's millions of high paying career jobs for people. I 539 00:30:28,280 --> 00:30:31,160 Speaker 1: mean hundred thousand, two hundred thousand dollar a year jobs 540 00:30:31,200 --> 00:30:33,800 Speaker 1: for people. There's gonna be millions of them, and then 541 00:30:33,800 --> 00:30:36,560 Speaker 1: we won't depend on the Saudias in the Middle Eastern 542 00:30:36,600 --> 00:30:40,120 Speaker 1: countries that hate our guts for the lifeblood of our economy. 543 00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:44,080 Speaker 1: So the next thing they've got to do is it's 544 00:30:44,280 --> 00:30:47,000 Speaker 1: very very simple. Then they got to get the middle 545 00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:50,120 Speaker 1: class tax cuts done, because that's going to stimulate the economy, 546 00:30:50,160 --> 00:30:52,840 Speaker 1: create jobs, get people out of poverty, off of food stamps, 547 00:30:52,840 --> 00:30:55,360 Speaker 1: and back in the labor force. Then they've got to 548 00:30:55,400 --> 00:30:57,760 Speaker 1: give the corporate tax cuts. That does the same thing. 549 00:30:58,480 --> 00:31:02,840 Speaker 1: The repatriation of trillion ends that multinationals park overseas. Will 550 00:31:02,880 --> 00:31:06,120 Speaker 1: you give them a reduced rate of five ten and 551 00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:08,600 Speaker 1: let that money back into the country. They're not gonna 552 00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:11,640 Speaker 1: put it in a bank. That's not how multinational corporations work. 553 00:31:12,360 --> 00:31:14,160 Speaker 1: You can incentivize them and say we'll let you bring 554 00:31:14,160 --> 00:31:18,640 Speaker 1: it back for five if you build a manufacturing center 555 00:31:18,720 --> 00:31:23,600 Speaker 1: or a factory in Detroit or or Milwaukee, or Cleveland, 556 00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:26,480 Speaker 1: or Philly or or any of these or Pittsburgh or 557 00:31:26,480 --> 00:31:28,520 Speaker 1: any of these areas that are depressed around the country 558 00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:34,200 Speaker 1: that need jobs. Go to the highest you know, unemployment counties, 559 00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:38,960 Speaker 1: parts of cities in the country and incentivize those corporations 560 00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:42,040 Speaker 1: to build their factories here. That's going to create jobs, 561 00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:44,640 Speaker 1: get the economy going. Then all the noise about Russia, 562 00:31:45,480 --> 00:31:47,800 Speaker 1: all the noise about everything goes away. That's all they 563 00:31:47,840 --> 00:31:51,880 Speaker 1: need to do. That's it. Just do that, and and 564 00:31:51,960 --> 00:31:55,680 Speaker 1: the American people will respond and say, Okay, jobs are 565 00:31:55,720 --> 00:31:59,000 Speaker 1: being created, the economy is coming around, people are getting 566 00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:02,240 Speaker 1: out of poverty. Let's see home ownership rates will start 567 00:32:02,240 --> 00:32:05,760 Speaker 1: going up, more money will be coming into the federal government. 568 00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:08,320 Speaker 1: Make it retroactive for the year. That will serve as 569 00:32:08,360 --> 00:32:10,960 Speaker 1: a tax cut for every American. Give people more of 570 00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:13,760 Speaker 1: their hard earned money back, and let's get the country 571 00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:17,479 Speaker 1: moving again. Isn't that What If they can't do that, 572 00:32:17,560 --> 00:32:20,560 Speaker 1: then what do these people stand for? And then at 573 00:32:20,600 --> 00:32:22,560 Speaker 1: that point, there's no need to have anybody in power 574 00:32:23,240 --> 00:32:26,120 Speaker 1: because they're they're as bad or worse than the Democrats. 575 00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:31,960 Speaker 1: I'm I'm apoplectic. I I can't even I can't express 576 00:32:32,040 --> 00:32:38,120 Speaker 1: the anger I feel. It's so frustrating, but it can 577 00:32:38,160 --> 00:32:41,840 Speaker 1: be fixed. That's the upside. They better fix it. I 578 00:32:41,880 --> 00:32:44,680 Speaker 1: like my dear throw them in a room with fans 579 00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:48,480 Speaker 1: like our founders and framers and Linda, what a shock 580 00:32:48,520 --> 00:32:51,480 Speaker 1: of my eighteen year old college bound son is in 581 00:32:51,520 --> 00:32:53,360 Speaker 1: my studient. We only have about dirty seconds? All right? 582 00:32:53,360 --> 00:32:56,280 Speaker 1: So how how do you like college? Bofar? I love college. 583 00:32:56,360 --> 00:32:58,800 Speaker 1: It's the best time in my life. And you're behaving 584 00:32:58,840 --> 00:33:01,960 Speaker 1: and you tell me everything thing that you're doing right? Absolutely, 585 00:33:02,080 --> 00:33:04,760 Speaker 1: I mean I can't. I can't I had any secrets 586 00:33:04,760 --> 00:33:07,080 Speaker 1: from you? And and how many rules do I have 587 00:33:07,240 --> 00:33:12,640 Speaker 1: for you? Um? Six? No? We have seven? Seven rules? No, 588 00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:15,720 Speaker 1: you have six? No, but there's one extra one but 589 00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:18,640 Speaker 1: you can now No, I can still throw it in now, 590 00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:20,840 Speaker 1: Why can't I throw it in the rules? Now? You 591 00:33:20,880 --> 00:33:23,280 Speaker 1: know there's seven? Tell them the seven? We have five seconds? 592 00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:27,880 Speaker 1: There are seven rules I have just confirmed. And how 593 00:33:27,880 --> 00:33:30,280 Speaker 1: many of you broken? We'll take a break, we'll come back. 594 00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:35,080 Speaker 1: There's only one way to truly fix Obamacare, only one way, 595 00:33:35,720 --> 00:33:40,000 Speaker 1: and that's a full repeal. A full repeal. That's been 596 00:33:40,040 --> 00:33:43,719 Speaker 1: our goal from the start. That's our goal now, and 597 00:33:43,760 --> 00:33:47,840 Speaker 1: we planned to achieve it. It's clear that any serious 598 00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:51,760 Speaker 1: attempt to improve our health care system must begin with 599 00:33:51,840 --> 00:33:56,760 Speaker 1: full repeal and replacement of Obamacare omission I mean fully 600 00:33:56,800 --> 00:33:59,840 Speaker 1: committed to fighting on behalf of the people of Arizona. 601 00:34:00,280 --> 00:34:06,880 Speaker 1: Repealing Obamacare is poorly crafted and misguided mandates, and replacing 602 00:34:07,040 --> 00:34:12,000 Speaker 1: the law with a fiscally responsible reform bill that contains 603 00:34:12,160 --> 00:34:17,240 Speaker 1: cuts and provides more choices is the best path forward. 604 00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:20,200 Speaker 1: You can't repair this month's trusty. You've got to tear 605 00:34:20,239 --> 00:34:21,759 Speaker 1: it down and start all over. How do you get 606 00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:24,239 Speaker 1: to that point, though, when they lose elections and you 607 00:34:24,280 --> 00:34:26,480 Speaker 1: think that's the key that the Republicans have to take 608 00:34:26,480 --> 00:34:27,920 Speaker 1: the Senate and from that point you can have a 609 00:34:27,960 --> 00:34:31,120 Speaker 1: different strategy. The ones who survive in or up in 610 00:34:31,800 --> 00:34:33,759 Speaker 1: and gonna have a different attitude. All right now, were 611 00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:36,640 Speaker 1: to Shawn Hannity show one show, and that those are 612 00:34:36,640 --> 00:34:39,560 Speaker 1: the promises you've heard over the years, again and again 613 00:34:39,640 --> 00:34:42,479 Speaker 1: and again. Give us the House, give us the Senate. 614 00:34:44,040 --> 00:34:46,840 Speaker 1: We'll give you fifty to sixties show votes, but we 615 00:34:46,880 --> 00:34:49,279 Speaker 1: won't use the power of the purse. Then will criticize 616 00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:53,160 Speaker 1: Ted Cruz and Rand Paul and Mike Lee and others 617 00:34:53,280 --> 00:34:56,759 Speaker 1: for daring to say we have constitutional authority and the 618 00:34:56,800 --> 00:35:00,000 Speaker 1: power of the person. Oh, he's gonna cost us the Center, 619 00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:03,440 Speaker 1: it would never happened. Then you get the White House 620 00:35:03,880 --> 00:35:07,279 Speaker 1: and they still can't get their act together. Now, all right, 621 00:35:07,360 --> 00:35:10,680 Speaker 1: So once this attempt at repeal replaced fell through today, 622 00:35:10,760 --> 00:35:14,080 Speaker 1: to McConnell's credit, and I even said, if he can't 623 00:35:14,080 --> 00:35:16,440 Speaker 1: get that, if he can't get the job done, he 624 00:35:16,520 --> 00:35:19,880 Speaker 1: needs to go and find somebody who can get the 625 00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:23,000 Speaker 1: job done. But then to his credit, he said, Okay, 626 00:35:23,160 --> 00:35:26,160 Speaker 1: we'll repeal the bill and we'll have a two year transition. Now, 627 00:35:26,640 --> 00:35:30,000 Speaker 1: I'm fine with that. Going to the back to which 628 00:35:30,080 --> 00:35:31,719 Speaker 1: Ran Paul is going to join us in a second 629 00:35:31,760 --> 00:35:35,399 Speaker 1: has been calling for, I'm a fine as long as 630 00:35:35,440 --> 00:35:38,440 Speaker 1: you don't pork the thing up in the transition period 631 00:35:38,760 --> 00:35:42,160 Speaker 1: and waste billions and billions and billions in new entitlements. 632 00:35:42,640 --> 00:35:44,960 Speaker 1: Senator Ram Paul joins us. Now, how are you, Senator? 633 00:35:45,800 --> 00:35:48,080 Speaker 1: Very good? You know, I'm encouraged. I think that we 634 00:35:48,080 --> 00:35:50,880 Speaker 1: should vote on a clean repeal. Republicans are on record, 635 00:35:51,800 --> 00:35:53,960 Speaker 1: fifty one out of fifty two Republicans in the US 636 00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:57,880 Speaker 1: Senate voted for clean repeal in and if they're going 637 00:35:57,920 --> 00:36:01,080 Speaker 1: to vote no now they've got some explaining to they, Collins, 638 00:36:01,080 --> 00:36:04,040 Speaker 1: and that's why they change their mind. Collins, what's the 639 00:36:04,080 --> 00:36:07,000 Speaker 1: other one? Caputo and and Murkowski all say no, they 640 00:36:07,000 --> 00:36:09,680 Speaker 1: won't vote for full repeal. Well, I think everybody should 641 00:36:09,880 --> 00:36:11,759 Speaker 1: have to vote. I think it's a good thing to 642 00:36:11,800 --> 00:36:15,280 Speaker 1: put people on record, and really, I think voters forgive 643 00:36:15,320 --> 00:36:17,520 Speaker 1: a lot of things, even disagreement. You know, I have 644 00:36:17,600 --> 00:36:19,160 Speaker 1: people all the time and say, well, I don't agree 645 00:36:19,200 --> 00:36:21,600 Speaker 1: with everything you do, but I know where you come from. 646 00:36:21,640 --> 00:36:23,640 Speaker 1: And so I think when you vote both ways on 647 00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:26,759 Speaker 1: an issue, people start to wonder what you're about and 648 00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:28,840 Speaker 1: if you can be trusted. And so I think everybody 649 00:36:28,920 --> 00:36:31,319 Speaker 1: voted repeal it all to vote the same way. If 650 00:36:31,320 --> 00:36:34,279 Speaker 1: we have the same vote. You know, Senator, this is 651 00:36:34,320 --> 00:36:36,120 Speaker 1: what you wanted to do in the beginning. I remember 652 00:36:36,200 --> 00:36:38,200 Speaker 1: I interviewed you very early on. I said, if this 653 00:36:38,280 --> 00:36:39,960 Speaker 1: is how it ends up, I'd be happy with this. 654 00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:43,160 Speaker 1: But I do have my one caveate, my one convat 655 00:36:43,200 --> 00:36:46,120 Speaker 1: is what I just said. I'm fine if as long 656 00:36:46,320 --> 00:36:49,040 Speaker 1: or as the transition goes on, that you're not going 657 00:36:49,080 --> 00:36:51,520 Speaker 1: to pork this thing up with billions and billions and 658 00:36:51,600 --> 00:36:53,880 Speaker 1: extra spending. Do you agree with that? Well, to me, 659 00:36:53,960 --> 00:36:56,640 Speaker 1: this is a compromise. Right now. This is a partial repeal, 660 00:36:56,680 --> 00:36:59,920 Speaker 1: so it doesn't fix Obamacare. Obamacare will be largely in play, 661 00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:03,120 Speaker 1: the adverse selection, the desk viral will still be in place, 662 00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:05,640 Speaker 1: So this isn't the fix. But this is at least 663 00:37:05,640 --> 00:37:08,919 Speaker 1: a compromise to repeal some of the worst parts of Obamacare, 664 00:37:09,360 --> 00:37:11,480 Speaker 1: and when we continue to fix it. I'm not for 665 00:37:11,520 --> 00:37:14,360 Speaker 1: adding in pork. I'm not for adding in an insurance bailout. 666 00:37:14,600 --> 00:37:16,440 Speaker 1: But I am for doing some things that we should 667 00:37:16,440 --> 00:37:19,160 Speaker 1: have done a long time ago, expand hill savings accounts. 668 00:37:19,600 --> 00:37:23,399 Speaker 1: And I'm also for letting people join in association. Nobody, 669 00:37:23,520 --> 00:37:26,600 Speaker 1: no plumber, no carpenter, no welder should have to buy 670 00:37:26,600 --> 00:37:29,360 Speaker 1: insurance by themselves. They should be allowed to join a 671 00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:31,399 Speaker 1: group to buy their insurance. And you like the guy 672 00:37:31,440 --> 00:37:33,799 Speaker 1: that you know. I've been putting Dr Josh Umber on 673 00:37:33,840 --> 00:37:36,040 Speaker 1: the program and he's been to Washington now with with 674 00:37:36,120 --> 00:37:40,439 Speaker 1: Secretary Price and so many others for since for five years, 675 00:37:40,480 --> 00:37:44,400 Speaker 1: these cooperatives fifty bucks a month, unlimited care, the pharmaceuticals 676 00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:49,360 Speaker 1: he negotiates directly with the pharmaceutical companies, discount stitches, uh 677 00:37:49,520 --> 00:37:52,200 Speaker 1: X rays, everything is included for fifty bucks a month, 678 00:37:52,239 --> 00:37:54,799 Speaker 1: you get catastrophic insurance for cancer or heart attack or 679 00:37:54,800 --> 00:37:58,840 Speaker 1: an accident, and you're you're covered. It's not that complicated, Senator. 680 00:37:59,320 --> 00:38:03,800 Speaker 1: The market place is amazingly innovative if you give people freedom. 681 00:38:03,880 --> 00:38:06,200 Speaker 1: So if you give people freedom to join an association, 682 00:38:06,239 --> 00:38:08,919 Speaker 1: the large size will bring down prices. If you give 683 00:38:08,960 --> 00:38:12,680 Speaker 1: people the freedom to buy health insurance how they want it, 684 00:38:12,680 --> 00:38:16,040 Speaker 1: whether they pay it cash, whether they get a concierge 685 00:38:16,400 --> 00:38:19,080 Speaker 1: type of practice like you're describing, where you can pay 686 00:38:19,080 --> 00:38:21,640 Speaker 1: a doctor and you can get unlimited visits. All of 687 00:38:21,640 --> 00:38:23,880 Speaker 1: those things will happen in a free marketplace. But you've 688 00:38:23,840 --> 00:38:26,200 Speaker 1: gotta get government out of the way, and you've got 689 00:38:26,200 --> 00:38:28,560 Speaker 1: to get rid of the Obamacare regulations. So I can't 690 00:38:28,880 --> 00:38:32,080 Speaker 1: emphasize enough that while I will vote for partial repeal, 691 00:38:32,440 --> 00:38:36,080 Speaker 1: which is a step in the right direction, still leaves 692 00:38:36,120 --> 00:38:38,160 Speaker 1: the desk barrol of Obamacare in place, and it will 693 00:38:38,200 --> 00:38:40,879 Speaker 1: still be a disaster until we fix and rip out 694 00:38:40,960 --> 00:38:43,799 Speaker 1: the whole thing. It was a myth that was a 695 00:38:43,840 --> 00:38:46,000 Speaker 1: full repeal, but it was as big a repeal as 696 00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:48,480 Speaker 1: you can get based on Senate rules. Is that correct? 697 00:38:49,120 --> 00:38:52,600 Speaker 1: It's close, it's a it's a compromise. It's a partial repeal, 698 00:38:52,960 --> 00:38:54,600 Speaker 1: and like I said, I'm gonna vote for it because 699 00:38:54,600 --> 00:38:57,600 Speaker 1: it's it's much better than the monstrosity that they were 700 00:38:57,600 --> 00:39:00,640 Speaker 1: working on that had insurance you know, reads of billions 701 00:39:00,640 --> 00:39:04,279 Speaker 1: of dollars for insurance bailouts. But I will tell you 702 00:39:04,360 --> 00:39:07,080 Speaker 1: that it is important that the desk spiral of Obamacare 703 00:39:07,200 --> 00:39:10,440 Speaker 1: still continues because prices are still going to rise with 704 00:39:10,480 --> 00:39:13,760 Speaker 1: this repeal. But the Democrats are never voting to repeal 705 00:39:13,800 --> 00:39:16,600 Speaker 1: any of it, so you can't rely on them. And unfortunately, 706 00:39:16,640 --> 00:39:19,360 Speaker 1: we don't have enough Republicans for a complete repeal. All right, 707 00:39:19,440 --> 00:39:22,440 Speaker 1: let me bring in Congressman Dave Bratt. Congressman Bratt is 708 00:39:22,480 --> 00:39:25,200 Speaker 1: a part of the Freedom Caucus and and frankly, the 709 00:39:25,200 --> 00:39:28,160 Speaker 1: Freedom Caucus is the only reason that any bill even 710 00:39:28,200 --> 00:39:30,319 Speaker 1: got out of the House. And you know, the most 711 00:39:30,320 --> 00:39:33,560 Speaker 1: frustrating part of that negotiation was we discovered a hundred 712 00:39:33,600 --> 00:39:36,520 Speaker 1: Republicans had no intention of ever voting to repeal, even 713 00:39:36,520 --> 00:39:39,480 Speaker 1: though they ran on it for years and years. Um, 714 00:39:39,520 --> 00:39:42,560 Speaker 1: are you in agreement with Senator Paul that this is 715 00:39:42,600 --> 00:39:44,560 Speaker 1: the best option we now have, because I actually think 716 00:39:44,600 --> 00:39:48,320 Speaker 1: it's a good option. I don't think it's a bad option. Yeah, no, absolutely, 717 00:39:48,480 --> 00:39:51,360 Speaker 1: and and and just to tie it into the broader 718 00:39:51,680 --> 00:39:54,480 Speaker 1: uh discussion, We got the budget committee meetings going on 719 00:39:54,600 --> 00:39:58,319 Speaker 1: right now, and the budget will include reconciliation instructions DOT 720 00:39:58,320 --> 00:40:01,080 Speaker 1: tax reform, and so has time they said, we'll just 721 00:40:01,160 --> 00:40:04,160 Speaker 1: vote for a budget vehicle and trust us. On healthcare, right, 722 00:40:04,160 --> 00:40:06,719 Speaker 1: we're gonna do a free market reforms and lower the 723 00:40:06,760 --> 00:40:09,360 Speaker 1: price and all that. Well, look where we ended up now. 724 00:40:10,280 --> 00:40:12,920 Speaker 1: So it's just it's critical we get it right. Uh. 725 00:40:13,239 --> 00:40:16,160 Speaker 1: On on our tax reform, right, we we need there's 726 00:40:16,160 --> 00:40:18,360 Speaker 1: a trill do you think this is better than the 727 00:40:18,400 --> 00:40:21,960 Speaker 1: House healthcare dollars in the order adjustable part of the 728 00:40:22,000 --> 00:40:24,880 Speaker 1: tax reform package. So we're two trillion dollars white and 729 00:40:24,960 --> 00:40:27,960 Speaker 1: in d C speak, you need those two trillion dollars 730 00:40:27,960 --> 00:40:30,759 Speaker 1: to pay for getting tax rates low. So we got 731 00:40:30,760 --> 00:40:33,480 Speaker 1: to make sure our leadership teams are looking at that 732 00:40:33,640 --> 00:40:35,840 Speaker 1: tax reform package as well, because we don't want to 733 00:40:35,960 --> 00:40:37,680 Speaker 1: end up in the same spot where ended up on 734 00:40:37,719 --> 00:40:40,480 Speaker 1: this healthcare debate. Uh, not getting through the House in 735 00:40:40,560 --> 00:40:43,880 Speaker 1: a free markets form or the Senate total total blockage. 736 00:40:44,320 --> 00:40:46,440 Speaker 1: In other words, the Senator had everything just right. We 737 00:40:46,480 --> 00:40:49,080 Speaker 1: need to get as much free market reforms as again 738 00:40:49,120 --> 00:40:51,879 Speaker 1: on the healthcare side, and we do have to get 739 00:40:51,920 --> 00:40:54,959 Speaker 1: that through because the tax pieces waiting on that as well, 740 00:40:55,040 --> 00:40:58,200 Speaker 1: and the tax pieces the holy grail. I agree with you, 741 00:40:58,239 --> 00:41:00,640 Speaker 1: and that money is very important. That's savings that you're 742 00:41:00,640 --> 00:41:04,080 Speaker 1: talking about is crucial. Uh, Senator Paul, I guess the 743 00:41:04,120 --> 00:41:07,480 Speaker 1: most important next question is is the transition? How long 744 00:41:07,480 --> 00:41:09,800 Speaker 1: would that be? And what do you think? The reality 745 00:41:09,840 --> 00:41:12,719 Speaker 1: is that you already have three senators saying no, So 746 00:41:12,800 --> 00:41:15,080 Speaker 1: how are you going to get the repealing? Well, I 747 00:41:15,080 --> 00:41:17,200 Speaker 1: think we have to have the vote either way, because 748 00:41:17,239 --> 00:41:19,560 Speaker 1: I think if you voted for this bill to repeal 749 00:41:19,560 --> 00:41:23,319 Speaker 1: Obamacare two years ago and you're voting against it now, 750 00:41:23,719 --> 00:41:25,560 Speaker 1: I think you have to explain that to the voters. 751 00:41:25,600 --> 00:41:27,279 Speaker 1: And I would suspect that there's going to be a 752 00:41:27,280 --> 00:41:29,919 Speaker 1: lot of voters in those states that are going to say, 753 00:41:29,960 --> 00:41:33,040 Speaker 1: we're confused. We thought you were for repealing and now 754 00:41:33,080 --> 00:41:36,800 Speaker 1: you're voting to keep Obamacare. It is true. Their point 755 00:41:36,840 --> 00:41:40,719 Speaker 1: they're making is this doesn't fix the situation. I agree completely. 756 00:41:40,719 --> 00:41:43,919 Speaker 1: I would do much more, but unfortunately we can't get 757 00:41:43,960 --> 00:41:48,120 Speaker 1: consensus because the big government Republicans want more subsidies for 758 00:41:48,160 --> 00:41:52,960 Speaker 1: insurance companies and the free market Republicans want more freedom, 759 00:41:53,120 --> 00:41:57,480 Speaker 1: less rules, more ability for people to join an association, 760 00:41:57,560 --> 00:42:02,160 Speaker 1: to buy their talk in the same language, health savings accounts, 761 00:42:02,200 --> 00:42:05,600 Speaker 1: these cooperatives. The thing I love about this guy in Wichita, 762 00:42:05,760 --> 00:42:08,200 Speaker 1: Dr umber Atlas m D. And he's been able to 763 00:42:08,280 --> 00:42:11,040 Speaker 1: duplicate this model nearly a thousand times around the country. 764 00:42:11,080 --> 00:42:14,040 Speaker 1: Fifty bucks a month and then you just get catastrophic 765 00:42:14,080 --> 00:42:16,600 Speaker 1: care and you're fully covered and you get the best care. 766 00:42:16,640 --> 00:42:20,080 Speaker 1: It's concierge care for everybody. It's it's so perfect, right, 767 00:42:20,520 --> 00:42:23,719 Speaker 1: and so would that? In other words, how long is 768 00:42:23,760 --> 00:42:27,640 Speaker 1: the transition gonna be once you repeal it? Well, what 769 00:42:27,719 --> 00:42:29,640 Speaker 1: we have to do is then get to consensus for 770 00:42:29,640 --> 00:42:31,480 Speaker 1: people to do the right thing, and that would be 771 00:42:31,520 --> 00:42:35,680 Speaker 1: getting rid of the rest of the Obamacare regulations, legalizing 772 00:42:35,840 --> 00:42:39,520 Speaker 1: expansion of health savings accounts, letting people buy their insurance 773 00:42:39,520 --> 00:42:42,240 Speaker 1: out of the health savings account, and then letting people 774 00:42:42,320 --> 00:42:45,960 Speaker 1: join an association and nationwide association or co opted by 775 00:42:46,000 --> 00:42:49,560 Speaker 1: their insurance. The trick is our Democrats for any of 776 00:42:49,560 --> 00:42:52,919 Speaker 1: these reforms. They don't cost any money, they won't add 777 00:42:52,960 --> 00:42:54,719 Speaker 1: to the debt, and they add to our freedom. So 778 00:42:54,760 --> 00:42:58,480 Speaker 1: I suspect not many Democrats will before it. Well, let 779 00:42:58,480 --> 00:43:00,879 Speaker 1: me ask you this. I mean all I want, I mean, 780 00:43:01,040 --> 00:43:03,239 Speaker 1: you know what. The things I want guys in life 781 00:43:03,280 --> 00:43:05,680 Speaker 1: are pretty simple. I want my country safe and secure. 782 00:43:06,200 --> 00:43:08,480 Speaker 1: I want to I want to question people that come 783 00:43:08,520 --> 00:43:11,279 Speaker 1: from countries whose values contradict ours. I want to wall 784 00:43:11,320 --> 00:43:14,400 Speaker 1: build so people can't just walk in anytime they want. 785 00:43:14,800 --> 00:43:17,400 Speaker 1: I want an economy, they get some Americans back to work, 786 00:43:17,440 --> 00:43:20,080 Speaker 1: out of poverty and off of food stamps and buying homes. 787 00:43:20,560 --> 00:43:23,640 Speaker 1: You know what, none of this is happening. No Democrats 788 00:43:23,680 --> 00:43:28,360 Speaker 1: gonna help. And Congressman Bratt if the Republicans can agree 789 00:43:28,400 --> 00:43:33,160 Speaker 1: on this, I I really don't have a lot of hope. Yeah, well, 790 00:43:33,200 --> 00:43:36,200 Speaker 1: you're right, don't lose hope. Yeah. The the one key aspect, 791 00:43:36,280 --> 00:43:37,960 Speaker 1: look at the Look at who whooped the House into 792 00:43:37,960 --> 00:43:39,840 Speaker 1: shape for a vote in the end, even though it 793 00:43:39,880 --> 00:43:43,600 Speaker 1: wasn't the optimal piece. President Trump came in and did 794 00:43:43,640 --> 00:43:45,719 Speaker 1: whip it together. So if he gets out right now 795 00:43:45,719 --> 00:43:48,759 Speaker 1: in messages on what brand is just talking about. Right, 796 00:43:48,840 --> 00:43:51,759 Speaker 1: let's get a repeal. We have to get that through there. 797 00:43:51,760 --> 00:43:54,799 Speaker 1: There'll be a few Republican tools say no to that. Uh, 798 00:43:54,880 --> 00:43:56,680 Speaker 1: let's see if they get you know, let's see if 799 00:43:56,920 --> 00:43:59,360 Speaker 1: Donald Trump could do some sales and ship on that piece, 800 00:43:59,760 --> 00:44:01,919 Speaker 1: and there won't be any short as your people lined 801 00:44:02,040 --> 00:44:04,839 Speaker 1: up to light up the Christmas tree and load up 802 00:44:04,920 --> 00:44:06,640 Speaker 1: health care. Right, that's not going to be a problem 803 00:44:06,640 --> 00:44:08,920 Speaker 1: at all. That's where this city works. So first of all, 804 00:44:08,920 --> 00:44:10,920 Speaker 1: you gotta repeal it, get rid of as much of 805 00:44:10,920 --> 00:44:13,919 Speaker 1: the regulations and the high cost provisions as we can 806 00:44:14,160 --> 00:44:18,120 Speaker 1: get the price down. And uh that the President is 807 00:44:18,160 --> 00:44:20,279 Speaker 1: going to be key in leading the way to his 808 00:44:20,400 --> 00:44:22,600 Speaker 1: messaging over the next few days has to be very 809 00:44:22,680 --> 00:44:25,680 Speaker 1: precise and telling us exactly what direction does he want 810 00:44:25,760 --> 00:44:28,319 Speaker 1: us to go in. Now, all right, stay right there, 811 00:44:28,320 --> 00:44:31,320 Speaker 1: We're gonna continue. Senator Ram Paul Dave Bratt Freedom Caucus. 812 00:44:31,800 --> 00:44:34,360 Speaker 1: You know, frankly, there's so few people in Washington that 813 00:44:34,400 --> 00:44:36,160 Speaker 1: we can trust on this, and these two people have 814 00:44:36,280 --> 00:44:40,360 Speaker 1: been very strong leaders and principal leaders to keep their promises. 815 00:44:40,719 --> 00:44:43,080 Speaker 1: And there's a few others, obviously the Freedom Caucus. Ted 816 00:44:43,120 --> 00:44:45,120 Speaker 1: Cruz has been fighting hard, Mike Lee has been fighting 817 00:44:45,160 --> 00:44:47,120 Speaker 1: hard on a few others, but very few. And the 818 00:44:47,160 --> 00:44:49,360 Speaker 1: fact that that these people that voted for this in 819 00:44:50,120 --> 00:44:52,880 Speaker 1: and now saying no, it's just it's so disgusted me. 820 00:44:52,960 --> 00:44:56,560 Speaker 1: Eight nine one, Sean, I'm gonna give both Senator ram 821 00:44:56,560 --> 00:44:59,359 Speaker 1: Paul and Cornersman Dave Brad a crack at my plan 822 00:44:59,400 --> 00:45:01,880 Speaker 1: about lock king them in a room. Sending with Senator 823 00:45:01,960 --> 00:45:05,319 Speaker 1: ram Paul the failure of the Senate to get healthcare done, 824 00:45:05,320 --> 00:45:07,600 Speaker 1: Mitch McConnell, I think rightly goes to Okay, let's go 825 00:45:07,640 --> 00:45:10,440 Speaker 1: to to a full repeal. Dave Brad is with the 826 00:45:10,480 --> 00:45:13,440 Speaker 1: Freedom Caucus. Alright, So all three of us agree that 827 00:45:13,440 --> 00:45:16,640 Speaker 1: that would be a really good start. The transition needs 828 00:45:16,719 --> 00:45:19,719 Speaker 1: to be responsible. We all agree on that, which I'm 829 00:45:19,719 --> 00:45:22,080 Speaker 1: always worried about in the swamp and DC. You know, 830 00:45:22,200 --> 00:45:24,360 Speaker 1: here's what I am am saying to Mitch McConnell. And 831 00:45:24,360 --> 00:45:26,279 Speaker 1: I know he's your fellow senator from Kentucky. I'm not 832 00:45:26,280 --> 00:45:28,080 Speaker 1: gonna put you in a bad spot, Senator Paul. But 833 00:45:28,360 --> 00:45:30,800 Speaker 1: if he can't get this done, if he can't rally 834 00:45:30,880 --> 00:45:34,239 Speaker 1: his troops to do to follow through on this fundamental 835 00:45:34,640 --> 00:45:37,480 Speaker 1: on this fundamental promise, then I frankly I don't have 836 00:45:37,520 --> 00:45:41,640 Speaker 1: any hope for him or the Republicans. In my argument 837 00:45:41,680 --> 00:45:45,520 Speaker 1: is get a room, Take everybody's phone. All fifty two 838 00:45:45,560 --> 00:45:49,040 Speaker 1: of you stay in there. I'll mail pizza. I'll send pizza, 839 00:45:49,080 --> 00:45:51,839 Speaker 1: I'll send chips, I'll send beer, I'll send water, I'll 840 00:45:51,840 --> 00:45:55,000 Speaker 1: send Coca cola. You stay in there until you guys 841 00:45:55,040 --> 00:45:57,840 Speaker 1: hammer out in agreement and fulfill your promise. Well, I 842 00:45:58,000 --> 00:45:59,440 Speaker 1: I might be able to go with that. Or are 843 00:45:59,480 --> 00:46:02,040 Speaker 1: you in shining maybe like a cage match or what 844 00:46:02,080 --> 00:46:04,640 Speaker 1: do you have? Get a big enough room? Well, right 845 00:46:04,640 --> 00:46:07,319 Speaker 1: now it's fifty one people to Senator McCain heels and 846 00:46:07,360 --> 00:46:10,080 Speaker 1: gets better. But fifty people in the room and put 847 00:46:10,160 --> 00:46:13,680 Speaker 1: up on the board, keep our promises, serve the American people, 848 00:46:13,840 --> 00:46:15,600 Speaker 1: get it done. Well. I think you put the nail 849 00:46:15,600 --> 00:46:17,799 Speaker 1: on the head in the sense that we promised to 850 00:46:17,840 --> 00:46:21,080 Speaker 1: repeal Obamacare. Everybody did. We won four elections and that's 851 00:46:21,120 --> 00:46:24,480 Speaker 1: what the American people elected us to do. And Republicans 852 00:46:24,480 --> 00:46:27,320 Speaker 1: who are now not going to vote to repeal it, uh, 853 00:46:27,400 --> 00:46:28,959 Speaker 1: they ought to be put on the spot and say, 854 00:46:29,040 --> 00:46:31,239 Speaker 1: how are things different? Why did you vote to do this? 855 00:46:31,280 --> 00:46:35,480 Speaker 1: In you've got identical language in front of you. Why 856 00:46:35,520 --> 00:46:39,160 Speaker 1: are you now afraid to repeal Obamacare? And and the 857 00:46:39,200 --> 00:46:41,800 Speaker 1: Congressman Bratt you dealt with the same thing in the House. 858 00:46:42,040 --> 00:46:44,399 Speaker 1: All of a sudden, all these Republicans, many of them 859 00:46:44,400 --> 00:46:47,200 Speaker 1: that said oh, repeal replaced and voted repeal replaced, and 860 00:46:47,239 --> 00:46:49,880 Speaker 1: all those show votes, they were nowhere to be found 861 00:46:49,880 --> 00:46:52,680 Speaker 1: when it came to really fixing the problem. Yeah. Well, 862 00:46:52,760 --> 00:46:56,160 Speaker 1: and I was talking about the opportunity President Trump as 863 00:46:56,239 --> 00:46:57,719 Speaker 1: the lead on this. I mean, he's got a big 864 00:46:57,760 --> 00:47:00,799 Speaker 1: White House staff. And so when we can start turning 865 00:47:00,800 --> 00:47:03,760 Speaker 1: around on their promises, just pull out the news clips 866 00:47:03,800 --> 00:47:06,120 Speaker 1: and sent about over to the senators right getting getting 867 00:47:06,120 --> 00:47:07,880 Speaker 1: the room, like you were saying, put up the clips 868 00:47:07,880 --> 00:47:11,200 Speaker 1: with everybody promising, uh, what they were gonna do on healthcare? 869 00:47:11,280 --> 00:47:13,839 Speaker 1: And I think you know you start putting tweeting those 870 00:47:13,840 --> 00:47:17,239 Speaker 1: out publicly, here's here's the promise, and uh, you know 871 00:47:17,280 --> 00:47:19,799 Speaker 1: you get a little flexibility up here, but not that much. 872 00:47:20,000 --> 00:47:22,600 Speaker 1: Well what about the idea of putting all of you 873 00:47:22,719 --> 00:47:25,480 Speaker 1: senators in a room and not leaving Washington until it 874 00:47:25,520 --> 00:47:28,960 Speaker 1: gets done? I mean, frankly that if Mitch McConnell can't 875 00:47:28,960 --> 00:47:32,560 Speaker 1: do this, can't fulfill this promise, give us the House 876 00:47:32,560 --> 00:47:36,480 Speaker 1: will repeals, the House Senate will repeal and replace. Give 877 00:47:36,560 --> 00:47:38,239 Speaker 1: us the House, Senate and the presidency. Well now you 878 00:47:38,320 --> 00:47:40,239 Speaker 1: have them all. Now the argument is we need more. 879 00:47:41,040 --> 00:47:43,640 Speaker 1: What I would argue is that the onus is on 880 00:47:43,719 --> 00:47:47,120 Speaker 1: the people who decide not to vote to repeal Obamacare. 881 00:47:47,160 --> 00:47:49,680 Speaker 1: It really isn't. You can't force people to vote one 882 00:47:49,719 --> 00:47:51,080 Speaker 1: way or the other. We can force them to have 883 00:47:51,120 --> 00:47:53,840 Speaker 1: a vote. So I am encouraged that we are moving 884 00:47:53,880 --> 00:47:56,319 Speaker 1: towards a vote. We have been debating this thing and 885 00:47:56,360 --> 00:47:59,560 Speaker 1: debating this thing. Let's have a vote on a repeal 886 00:47:59,600 --> 00:48:01,719 Speaker 1: of a macare that we have voted on before, that 887 00:48:01,800 --> 00:48:04,160 Speaker 1: we were all on record of. And if people are 888 00:48:04,200 --> 00:48:06,799 Speaker 1: unwilling to it's really the fault lies with them. It 889 00:48:06,840 --> 00:48:09,320 Speaker 1: doesn't lie with others. It lies with those who refuse 890 00:48:09,440 --> 00:48:12,719 Speaker 1: to vote to repeal Obamacare. Senator, do you think that 891 00:48:12,800 --> 00:48:15,320 Speaker 1: your colleagues will stay until this gets done? Well, I 892 00:48:15,360 --> 00:48:17,160 Speaker 1: think there could be a vote very soon. There was 893 00:48:17,200 --> 00:48:20,200 Speaker 1: discussion at our caucus meeting today of doing it as 894 00:48:20,239 --> 00:48:23,640 Speaker 1: soon as tomorrow. So we are to envision any Republican 895 00:48:23,680 --> 00:48:25,880 Speaker 1: that has now gone on the record no of the three, 896 00:48:25,960 --> 00:48:28,720 Speaker 1: do you envision any of them backtracking? Well, I tried 897 00:48:28,760 --> 00:48:32,680 Speaker 1: to encourage them that My own unsolicited political advice is 898 00:48:32,680 --> 00:48:35,400 Speaker 1: is that people are willing to forgive things that you 899 00:48:35,640 --> 00:48:37,879 Speaker 1: vote for that they disagree with, but they're not as 900 00:48:37,920 --> 00:48:40,960 Speaker 1: forgiving for those people who seem to vote both ways, 901 00:48:41,000 --> 00:48:43,040 Speaker 1: depending on which way the wind is blowing. And so 902 00:48:43,200 --> 00:48:45,560 Speaker 1: I think it's gonna be very difficult for people, and 903 00:48:45,600 --> 00:48:48,360 Speaker 1: I would suspect that there will be Republican challengers for 904 00:48:48,400 --> 00:48:51,680 Speaker 1: Republicans who vote different ways, vote first to repeal it 905 00:48:51,680 --> 00:48:55,760 Speaker 1: in and then against repealing it now. It's so unnecessary 906 00:48:55,800 --> 00:48:59,800 Speaker 1: and so disheartening and frustrating. All right, Congressman Bratt, Senator Rampaul, 907 00:48:59,840 --> 00:49:01,839 Speaker 1: you who are not the problem. You're keeping your word. 908 00:49:02,000 --> 00:49:03,960 Speaker 1: Thank you both for being with us eight hundred nine 909 00:49:04,000 --> 00:49:05,719 Speaker 1: for one Seawan you want to be a part of 910 00:49:05,719 --> 00:49:07,759 Speaker 1: the program. We'll take a quick break, we'll come back. 911 00:49:07,800 --> 00:49:09,920 Speaker 1: Why do you send me those notes? Lendas, what are 912 00:49:09,960 --> 00:49:13,719 Speaker 1: you doing? And we'll continue straight ahead till the top 913 00:49:13,719 --> 00:49:17,560 Speaker 1: of the hour. The battle still engaged as it relates 914 00:49:17,600 --> 00:49:22,560 Speaker 1: to the failure of Senate Republicans to get their promises 915 00:49:22,560 --> 00:49:25,200 Speaker 1: complete on the issue of healthcare. So let me go 916 00:49:25,280 --> 00:49:28,560 Speaker 1: to back to Mitch McConnell, the Senate majority leader for 917 00:49:28,640 --> 00:49:33,160 Speaker 1: now and talking about what we all know, Obamacare is failing. Okay, 918 00:49:33,200 --> 00:49:35,200 Speaker 1: we knew it wasn't gonna be easy but we know 919 00:49:35,640 --> 00:49:38,440 Speaker 1: nothing that gets done in Washington is easy. I've been 920 00:49:38,480 --> 00:49:42,440 Speaker 1: explaining that I never particularly like the House bills I've 921 00:49:42,440 --> 00:49:45,920 Speaker 1: been discussing today, and so, okay, we know it's failing. 922 00:49:46,040 --> 00:49:48,680 Speaker 1: It's not easy. And then McConnell tries to and I think, 923 00:49:48,680 --> 00:49:51,040 Speaker 1: do the right thing. Go back to the bill. That's 924 00:49:51,040 --> 00:49:53,919 Speaker 1: something we have discussed on this program at nauseum, which 925 00:49:53,960 --> 00:49:56,600 Speaker 1: is which is a smarter thing to do with with 926 00:49:56,800 --> 00:49:59,640 Speaker 1: built in time to transition out of it, as long 927 00:49:59,680 --> 00:50:03,080 Speaker 1: as it doesn't include and with everybody in d C 928 00:50:03,280 --> 00:50:06,200 Speaker 1: and the swamp, you have to assume they're just gonna 929 00:50:06,280 --> 00:50:09,280 Speaker 1: throw billions at it. No, that's not gonna work either. 930 00:50:09,560 --> 00:50:12,320 Speaker 1: And as they transition to a new plan, but repealing 931 00:50:12,360 --> 00:50:13,960 Speaker 1: it is the first step. Then you get rid of 932 00:50:13,960 --> 00:50:17,919 Speaker 1: the reconciliation process, hopefully. And then Governor I'm sorry, Vice 933 00:50:17,960 --> 00:50:21,320 Speaker 1: President Pence weighs in that inaction is not an option, 934 00:50:21,400 --> 00:50:24,040 Speaker 1: and it's not. And this goes to the Hannity solution. 935 00:50:24,239 --> 00:50:27,800 Speaker 1: Throw them in a room, take their phones locked the room, 936 00:50:27,800 --> 00:50:31,799 Speaker 1: throw in some pizza and beer and water occasionally, and 937 00:50:31,880 --> 00:50:34,480 Speaker 1: let them rotten there until they do their job. Anyway, 938 00:50:34,600 --> 00:50:38,640 Speaker 1: let's play this. Everyone knows about Obamacare's skyrocketing costs and 939 00:50:38,640 --> 00:50:42,000 Speaker 1: it's plummeting choices. Too often, however, this discussion seems to 940 00:50:42,120 --> 00:50:46,040 Speaker 1: vere into the abstract. They're not just numbers on a page. 941 00:50:46,360 --> 00:50:49,279 Speaker 1: These are the lives of real people. These are the 942 00:50:49,280 --> 00:50:52,560 Speaker 1: men and women we represent Americans who are hurting. Middle 943 00:50:52,600 --> 00:50:57,399 Speaker 1: class families served better then Obamacare's failures. We worked hard 944 00:50:57,440 --> 00:50:59,520 Speaker 1: to provide them with a better way. We did so 945 00:50:59,680 --> 00:51:02,680 Speaker 1: in then college that this task would not be easy. 946 00:51:03,080 --> 00:51:06,239 Speaker 1: We understood it would not come quickly, but we knew 947 00:51:06,280 --> 00:51:07,759 Speaker 1: that it was the right thing to do, so we 948 00:51:07,880 --> 00:51:11,520 Speaker 1: pushed forward anyway. I believe we must continue to push 949 00:51:11,600 --> 00:51:15,160 Speaker 1: forward now. I regret that the effort to repeal and 950 00:51:15,200 --> 00:51:20,319 Speaker 1: immediately replace the failures of Obamacare will not be successful. 951 00:51:20,760 --> 00:51:23,960 Speaker 1: That doesn't mean we should give up. We will now 952 00:51:23,960 --> 00:51:26,880 Speaker 1: try a different way to bring the American people relief 953 00:51:26,880 --> 00:51:30,600 Speaker 1: from Obamacare. I think we owe them at least that much. 954 00:51:30,920 --> 00:51:32,799 Speaker 1: In the coming days, the Senate will take up and 955 00:51:32,880 --> 00:51:36,480 Speaker 1: vote on a repeal of Obamacare combined with a stable 956 00:51:36,880 --> 00:51:41,480 Speaker 1: two year transition period as we work towards patient centered healthcare. 957 00:51:41,640 --> 00:51:43,640 Speaker 1: A majority of the Senate voted to pass the same 958 00:51:43,680 --> 00:51:49,240 Speaker 1: repeal legislation back President Obama vetoed it, then President Tom Trump. 959 00:51:49,719 --> 00:51:53,600 Speaker 1: President Trump will sign it now. Democrats were celebrating last night. 960 00:51:53,920 --> 00:51:57,040 Speaker 1: I hope they consider what they're celebrating. The American people 961 00:51:57,080 --> 00:52:00,640 Speaker 1: are hurting. They need relief, and it's greatful that our 962 00:52:00,680 --> 00:52:03,600 Speaker 1: Democratic colleagues decided early on that they did not want 963 00:52:03,640 --> 00:52:07,320 Speaker 1: to engage with us seriously in the process to deliver 964 00:52:07,800 --> 00:52:10,040 Speaker 1: that relief. But this doesn't have to be the end 965 00:52:10,080 --> 00:52:13,000 Speaker 1: of the story. Passing the repeal legislation will allow us 966 00:52:13,000 --> 00:52:15,440 Speaker 1: to accomplish what we need to do on behalf of 967 00:52:15,440 --> 00:52:18,400 Speaker 1: our people are Democratic. Friends have spoken a lot recently 968 00:52:18,440 --> 00:52:22,760 Speaker 1: about wanting bipartists and solutions. Passing this legislation will provide 969 00:52:22,800 --> 00:52:27,239 Speaker 1: the opportunity for senators of all parties to engage with 970 00:52:27,320 --> 00:52:31,000 Speaker 1: a fresh start and a new beginning for the American people. 971 00:52:31,600 --> 00:52:34,040 Speaker 1: Last night, we learned that the Senate still doesn't have 972 00:52:34,239 --> 00:52:37,839 Speaker 1: consensus on a bill to repeal and replace Obamacare. At 973 00:52:37,880 --> 00:52:41,880 Speaker 1: the same time, President Trump and I fully support the 974 00:52:41,920 --> 00:52:44,759 Speaker 1: Majority leader's decision to move forward with bill that just 975 00:52:45,080 --> 00:52:49,360 Speaker 1: repeals Obamacare and gives Congress time, as the President said, 976 00:52:49,760 --> 00:52:52,080 Speaker 1: to work on a new healthcare plan that will start 977 00:52:52,560 --> 00:52:55,640 Speaker 1: with a clean slate. You know, the Senate actually passed 978 00:52:55,640 --> 00:52:59,280 Speaker 1: the very same bill in and send it to President 979 00:52:59,280 --> 00:53:01,799 Speaker 1: Obama's dad, and they should do it again. But to 980 00:53:01,880 --> 00:53:05,560 Speaker 1: be clear, the Senate should vote to repeal now and 981 00:53:05,600 --> 00:53:09,600 Speaker 1: replace later or return to the legislation carefully crafted in 982 00:53:09,640 --> 00:53:13,160 Speaker 1: the House and Senate. But either way, in action is 983 00:53:13,200 --> 00:53:17,320 Speaker 1: not an option. Congress needs to step up. Congress needs 984 00:53:17,360 --> 00:53:20,680 Speaker 1: to do their job, and Congress needs to do their 985 00:53:20,800 --> 00:53:27,239 Speaker 1: job now. So the Democrats are loving this, as they said, 986 00:53:27,280 --> 00:53:31,480 Speaker 1: the more moderate governors, Terry mccauloff is salivating at the 987 00:53:31,560 --> 00:53:33,440 Speaker 1: idea that he can be president one day, which is 988 00:53:33,480 --> 00:53:36,320 Speaker 1: just basically Clinton Jr. They're salivating at the fact that 989 00:53:36,360 --> 00:53:40,000 Speaker 1: Republicans here it is July eighteenth, they can't get the 990 00:53:40,080 --> 00:53:43,080 Speaker 1: job done and they're just hoping. And so there's there's 991 00:53:43,160 --> 00:53:46,560 Speaker 1: Chuck Schumer doing what he does best, poking and prodding 992 00:53:46,600 --> 00:53:49,960 Speaker 1: and and pushing and well, we need to buy partisan solution. 993 00:53:50,320 --> 00:53:52,400 Speaker 1: They don't want to buy partisan solution. They want the 994 00:53:52,440 --> 00:53:55,160 Speaker 1: president to fail. They want to obstruct. They want the 995 00:53:55,200 --> 00:53:59,360 Speaker 1: Republicans to fail, and all their anti Trump rhetoric and 996 00:53:59,440 --> 00:54:02,799 Speaker 1: obstruction is um is about one that they They're loving this. 997 00:54:03,400 --> 00:54:06,000 Speaker 1: They don't care about the millions that lost their doctor, 998 00:54:06,080 --> 00:54:09,560 Speaker 1: their plans, whose premiums have gone up eight thousand dollars 999 00:54:09,560 --> 00:54:12,839 Speaker 1: on average. They don't care, but they'll act like they care. 1000 00:54:13,120 --> 00:54:16,520 Speaker 1: It's so phony. Listen to crocodile tears, Schumer, make no 1001 00:54:16,840 --> 00:54:21,960 Speaker 1: mistake about it. Passing repeal without a replacement would be 1002 00:54:22,080 --> 00:54:26,919 Speaker 1: a disaster. Our health care system would implode. Millions would 1003 00:54:26,960 --> 00:54:31,359 Speaker 1: lose coverage. Coverage for millions more would be diminished. Our 1004 00:54:31,440 --> 00:54:34,800 Speaker 1: health care system would be in such a deep hole 1005 00:54:35,719 --> 00:54:40,320 Speaker 1: that repair would be nearly impossible in passing. In fact, 1006 00:54:40,480 --> 00:54:43,439 Speaker 1: passing repeal and having it go into effect two years 1007 00:54:43,520 --> 00:54:47,920 Speaker 1: later is in many ways worse than the Republican healthcare 1008 00:54:48,000 --> 00:54:52,319 Speaker 1: bill that was just rejected by my Republican colleagues. It's 1009 00:54:52,360 --> 00:54:55,160 Speaker 1: like if our health care system was a patient who 1010 00:54:55,200 --> 00:54:59,240 Speaker 1: came in and needed some medicine. The Republicans proposed surgery. 1011 00:54:59,680 --> 00:55:03,400 Speaker 1: The oration was a failure. Now Republicans are proposing a 1012 00:55:03,520 --> 00:55:07,319 Speaker 1: second surgery that will surely kill the patient. Medicine is 1013 00:55:07,360 --> 00:55:11,560 Speaker 1: needed by part is in medicine, not a second surgery. 1014 00:55:11,880 --> 00:55:15,240 Speaker 1: We are age our Republican colleagues to change their tomb. 1015 00:55:15,920 --> 00:55:19,880 Speaker 1: We're ready to sit down right now. If Republicans abandoned 1016 00:55:19,880 --> 00:55:24,120 Speaker 1: cuts to medicaid, abandoned huge tax breaks for the wealthy, 1017 00:55:24,360 --> 00:55:28,400 Speaker 1: and agree to go through the regular order, through the committees, 1018 00:55:28,600 --> 00:55:32,879 Speaker 1: with hearings, onto the floor, with time for amendments. That's 1019 00:55:32,880 --> 00:55:36,879 Speaker 1: how we perfect legislation here. That's how it's been done 1020 00:55:36,920 --> 00:55:41,040 Speaker 1: for two hundred years. Almost inevitably, when you try to 1021 00:55:41,120 --> 00:55:45,120 Speaker 1: draft something behind closed doors and not vet it with 1022 00:55:45,200 --> 00:55:50,920 Speaker 1: the public, it becomes a failure, in this case, a disaster. 1023 00:55:51,440 --> 00:55:53,239 Speaker 1: All right, let's get to our busy phones here. Eight 1024 00:55:53,640 --> 00:55:56,160 Speaker 1: nine for one, Shaun is a toll free telephone number. 1025 00:55:56,200 --> 00:55:58,800 Speaker 1: You want to be a part of the program, as 1026 00:55:59,040 --> 00:56:02,279 Speaker 1: we say, hide to Justin in New York. Justin, how 1027 00:56:02,280 --> 00:56:04,200 Speaker 1: are you glad you called the all new A M 1028 00:56:04,280 --> 00:56:07,680 Speaker 1: seven ten w R. What's going on? Well? I had 1029 00:56:07,719 --> 00:56:10,520 Speaker 1: a few questions about this, I mean, the whole thing 1030 00:56:10,560 --> 00:56:14,239 Speaker 1: with the healthcare bill. I don't think Obamacare or the 1031 00:56:14,800 --> 00:56:18,239 Speaker 1: House plan or the Stamp plan was really fixed much. Now, 1032 00:56:18,600 --> 00:56:22,160 Speaker 1: actually I disagree because what but the Freedom Caucus fought 1033 00:56:22,200 --> 00:56:25,120 Speaker 1: for and and I agree it wasn't the perfect bill. 1034 00:56:25,160 --> 00:56:27,839 Speaker 1: But remember during the whole House debate, what did we learn? 1035 00:56:27,960 --> 00:56:30,640 Speaker 1: We learned that they were at least a hundred Republican 1036 00:56:30,719 --> 00:56:34,319 Speaker 1: congressmen that had no intention of ever repealing and replacing Obamacare. 1037 00:56:34,800 --> 00:56:37,560 Speaker 1: That all of those you know, fifty sixty show votes 1038 00:56:37,600 --> 00:56:40,120 Speaker 1: whatever it was, that that's all they were were show votes. 1039 00:56:40,160 --> 00:56:42,759 Speaker 1: But even at the time I told you they were 1040 00:56:42,760 --> 00:56:46,080 Speaker 1: show votes because if they really wanted repeal and replaced, 1041 00:56:46,080 --> 00:56:48,160 Speaker 1: and they would have used the power of the purse. 1042 00:56:48,200 --> 00:56:50,320 Speaker 1: So that was the first indication that they were total 1043 00:56:50,360 --> 00:56:53,880 Speaker 1: BS votes. So with that said, the people that I 1044 00:56:54,280 --> 00:56:58,360 Speaker 1: really respect in Congress the most, the the Freedom Caucus, 1045 00:56:58,640 --> 00:57:01,360 Speaker 1: they're the ones that rolled up their sleeves, were working 1046 00:57:01,400 --> 00:57:04,200 Speaker 1: twenty hours a day, Mark Meadows, Jim Jordan, Dave Bratt, 1047 00:57:04,239 --> 00:57:06,600 Speaker 1: and all those guys. Louie Gomer, they were rolling up 1048 00:57:06,640 --> 00:57:10,200 Speaker 1: their sleeves And what they very cleverly did is they 1049 00:57:10,239 --> 00:57:13,360 Speaker 1: threat a needle to make sure that premiums go down 1050 00:57:13,400 --> 00:57:18,080 Speaker 1: and competition goes up, and they opened up the opportunity 1051 00:57:18,160 --> 00:57:21,920 Speaker 1: for catastrophic plans for you know, things like dr Umber 1052 00:57:22,000 --> 00:57:25,440 Speaker 1: and that is these different cooperatives around the country. And 1053 00:57:25,440 --> 00:57:27,760 Speaker 1: and of course what I think is important to medical 1054 00:57:27,760 --> 00:57:30,960 Speaker 1: saviors accounts. So it wasn't perfect, it wasn't a complete repeal. 1055 00:57:31,000 --> 00:57:34,040 Speaker 1: Nobody said it was but at the same time we're 1056 00:57:34,040 --> 00:57:36,560 Speaker 1: being price gouged by the health industry. I mean, if 1057 00:57:36,600 --> 00:57:38,920 Speaker 1: you look at the cost of X rays and CT 1058 00:57:39,120 --> 00:57:42,560 Speaker 1: scans overseas, the post the cost here, it's ridiculous. Yeah, 1059 00:57:42,600 --> 00:57:45,080 Speaker 1: but that's that was the whole point. That's what. Remember, 1060 00:57:45,240 --> 00:57:50,400 Speaker 1: the CBO predicted a thirty to decrease in premiums under 1061 00:57:50,480 --> 00:57:53,760 Speaker 1: the House Freedom Caucus plan that eventually passed the House. 1062 00:57:54,000 --> 00:57:56,360 Speaker 1: So that was the that was the most important aspect 1063 00:57:56,400 --> 00:57:58,280 Speaker 1: to it. And you know, there's a reason why ted 1064 00:57:58,360 --> 00:58:00,640 Speaker 1: Cruz as long as the Cruise amend it was included, 1065 00:58:00,680 --> 00:58:03,320 Speaker 1: because that was gonna be driving down premiums. So there 1066 00:58:03,400 --> 00:58:07,560 Speaker 1: was an immedia positive impact. Although imperfect, I'll take him perfect. 1067 00:58:07,600 --> 00:58:10,280 Speaker 1: I'm not. Look, I understand you've got varying factions within 1068 00:58:10,320 --> 00:58:13,040 Speaker 1: every party. It's not which If I Sean Hannity had 1069 00:58:13,080 --> 00:58:15,880 Speaker 1: his way, I'd repeal the whole thing today, and then 1070 00:58:15,880 --> 00:58:19,040 Speaker 1: I'd immediately write up a bill that created more cooperatives 1071 00:58:19,080 --> 00:58:22,480 Speaker 1: like in Wichita, Kansas, and more opportunities for health savings 1072 00:58:22,520 --> 00:58:25,920 Speaker 1: accounts and more competition than we've ever seen, and the 1073 00:58:25,960 --> 00:58:28,520 Speaker 1: ability for young people so that they no longer are 1074 00:58:28,680 --> 00:58:31,560 Speaker 1: forced to pay for the the elderly, the sick, and 1075 00:58:31,600 --> 00:58:33,840 Speaker 1: the disabled and the unensured that they would be able 1076 00:58:33,880 --> 00:58:35,520 Speaker 1: to get a plan that works for them, which is 1077 00:58:35,720 --> 00:58:39,320 Speaker 1: in most instances something like a catastrophic plan. And that's 1078 00:58:39,480 --> 00:58:41,840 Speaker 1: my only issue with it. It was, you know I 1079 00:58:41,840 --> 00:58:45,120 Speaker 1: had to do with uh um. I've had X rays. 1080 00:58:45,200 --> 00:58:46,880 Speaker 1: I had an X ray in Turkey where it was 1081 00:58:47,480 --> 00:58:49,600 Speaker 1: cost me thirty five dollars, get an X ray and 1082 00:58:49,640 --> 00:58:52,240 Speaker 1: blood work done there, and I had no insurance over there. 1083 00:58:52,440 --> 00:58:54,480 Speaker 1: Come back here and how much does it cost here? 1084 00:58:54,640 --> 00:58:56,720 Speaker 1: It's okay. But if you let's say you lived in 1085 00:58:56,760 --> 00:58:59,760 Speaker 1: Wichita and you are part of Atlas m D, Okay, 1086 00:58:59,800 --> 00:59:02,520 Speaker 1: that would be free. Your medicines would be free. You 1087 00:59:02,560 --> 00:59:05,800 Speaker 1: pay fifty dollars a month for unlimited care. Then you 1088 00:59:05,800 --> 00:59:09,040 Speaker 1: you bolster your your cooperative plan with a catastrophic plan. 1089 00:59:09,120 --> 00:59:11,480 Speaker 1: If you have a heart attack, or get cancer, or 1090 00:59:11,600 --> 00:59:14,240 Speaker 1: you have a bad accident. That's the perfect scenario because 1091 00:59:14,280 --> 00:59:17,200 Speaker 1: catastrophic care is relatively inexpensive, depending on how high you're 1092 00:59:17,200 --> 00:59:20,480 Speaker 1: deductible is. Let's say you have a ten thousand dollar deductible, 1093 00:59:20,520 --> 00:59:21,960 Speaker 1: which is a lot of money, but if you're able 1094 00:59:22,000 --> 00:59:24,080 Speaker 1: to afford it, the worst case scenario, you have a 1095 00:59:24,080 --> 00:59:26,520 Speaker 1: bad accident. Okay, you paid ten grand out of pocket. 1096 00:59:26,640 --> 00:59:29,000 Speaker 1: The bill is three hundred four and a thousand dollars 1097 00:59:29,080 --> 00:59:31,000 Speaker 1: and all of it's paid for from there. And that 1098 00:59:31,200 --> 00:59:34,840 Speaker 1: is that insurance is very inexpensive. Maybe if we replace 1099 00:59:34,920 --> 00:59:42,560 Speaker 1: the politicians with those types of doctors. Justin agreement, justin 1100 00:59:43,080 --> 00:59:46,320 Speaker 1: I mean, do you, poor Josh Umber, how many times, Linda, 1101 00:59:46,400 --> 00:59:48,280 Speaker 1: did we send him to Washington or did he get 1102 00:59:48,320 --> 00:59:50,960 Speaker 1: invited to Washington to meet with Tom Price, the Health 1103 00:59:51,000 --> 00:59:54,200 Speaker 1: and Human Services secretary, congressman and senators. I mean, this 1104 00:59:54,360 --> 00:59:56,840 Speaker 1: poor guy, because we we've been putting him on since 1105 00:59:56,840 --> 00:59:59,320 Speaker 1: twel You had to drag himself to d C to 1106 00:59:59,360 --> 01:00:01,479 Speaker 1: explain it to the these idiots and they still don't 1107 01:00:01,480 --> 01:00:04,360 Speaker 1: get it. But okay, so I'm a really bad candidate 1108 01:00:04,400 --> 01:00:06,960 Speaker 1: for health insurance. I've got type one diabetes. I'm a 1109 01:00:07,000 --> 01:00:11,280 Speaker 1: two times cancer survivor. Okay, yep, so i am. I've 1110 01:00:11,320 --> 01:00:14,800 Speaker 1: been watching this very very closely, of course, no, no, no, 1111 01:00:14,840 --> 01:00:18,800 Speaker 1: you luckily I have a job so that that helps well. 1112 01:00:18,800 --> 01:00:21,360 Speaker 1: But you need a plan that doesn't punish you because 1113 01:00:21,400 --> 01:00:23,480 Speaker 1: you have pre existing conditions, which, by the way, all 1114 01:00:23,520 --> 01:00:27,080 Speaker 1: the plans the Republicans had they factored in pre existing 1115 01:00:27,120 --> 01:00:29,640 Speaker 1: conditions that in credit to them, that was always factored 1116 01:00:29,680 --> 01:00:32,520 Speaker 1: in m And then, by the way, somebody who has 1117 01:00:32,520 --> 01:00:36,880 Speaker 1: type one diabetes needs how old are you know? Oh 1118 01:00:36,920 --> 01:00:38,840 Speaker 1: my gosh, how what kind of cancers it you have? 1119 01:00:40,200 --> 01:00:48,520 Speaker 1: I had to sickler and thyroid? Okay? How many years ago? Uh? Seven? Okay, 1120 01:00:48,520 --> 01:00:50,800 Speaker 1: so you're you're really past the time. You're probably in 1121 01:00:50,800 --> 01:00:54,120 Speaker 1: good shape now if you just manage your weight, manage 1122 01:00:54,160 --> 01:00:58,040 Speaker 1: your blood sugar and you should be Okay.

How are you 1128 01:01:13,320 --> 01:01:16,800 Speaker 1: glad you called sir? You don't know you were talking 1129 01:01:16,840 --> 01:01:21,200 Speaker 1: about having people take care of you when you get older. Like, 1130 01:01:21,320 --> 01:01:22,919 Speaker 1: if I know I'm gonna die, if I have three 1131 01:01:22,960 --> 01:01:25,560 Speaker 1: months and I'm going to be incapacitated, I don't want 1132 01:01:25,600 --> 01:01:28,280 Speaker 1: my family bathing me and cleaning me. Yeah. I've been 1133 01:01:28,280 --> 01:01:31,000 Speaker 1: that way with my my own inmows and like my 1134 01:01:31,320 --> 01:01:34,600 Speaker 1: my outc and stuff. We love to take care of them, 1135 01:01:34,640 --> 01:01:36,840 Speaker 1: but when I get older, I don't want the kids 1136 01:01:36,880 --> 01:01:39,600 Speaker 1: taking care of me like that. It's not right. So 1137 01:01:39,640 --> 01:01:42,280 Speaker 1: I'm totally agreeing with you, you know, I'm all I'm 1138 01:01:42,320 --> 01:01:44,280 Speaker 1: saying is, if I know it's over, I want to 1139 01:01:44,320 --> 01:01:46,640 Speaker 1: say goodbye in the right way. I want my I 1140 01:01:46,680 --> 01:01:49,520 Speaker 1: want my family to remember me as I was most 1141 01:01:49,520 --> 01:01:51,640 Speaker 1: of my life, and I don't want to burden them 1142 01:01:51,720 --> 01:01:54,000 Speaker 1: that way. And I want to say goodbye when i'm 1143 01:01:54,120 --> 01:01:57,480 Speaker 1: when I'm conscious and aware and not in pain and 1144 01:01:57,560 --> 01:02:00,560 Speaker 1: not needing to get bathed by my children. That's I know. 1145 01:02:00,760 --> 01:02:03,080 Speaker 1: And somebody everyone's calling some people call me selfish. I'm 1146 01:02:03,080 --> 01:02:05,160 Speaker 1: not trying to be selfish. I'm trying to be self less, 1147 01:02:05,360 --> 01:02:07,400 Speaker 1: trying to let them go on with their lives. I've 1148 01:02:07,400 --> 01:02:10,160 Speaker 1: had a great life. I don't I have no regret. Sean, 1149 01:02:10,400 --> 01:02:12,000 Speaker 1: you know what, I think you might have a little 1150 01:02:12,040 --> 01:02:14,560 Speaker 1: bit of a difference of opinion on this one individual. 1151 01:02:14,600 --> 01:02:18,400 Speaker 1: Do you know why? Why? Because Joe is actually Ethan's 1152 01:02:18,440 --> 01:02:21,520 Speaker 1: father in law, so maybe Ethan should take care of him.

I never used it because I had 1186 01:03:57,520 --> 01:03:59,520 Speaker 1: two engines. Nobody could drive it. Now just a little 1187 01:03:59,560 --> 01:04:02,240 Speaker 1: baby with one engine.

Eight 1191 01:04:09,240 --> 01:04:11,920 Speaker 1: hundred nine one, Shawn told free telephone number. When we 1192 01:04:12,000 --> 01:04:14,520 Speaker 1: come back, we will be checking in with the House 1193 01:04:14,560 --> 01:04:18,320 Speaker 1: Budget Committee Chairwoman Diane Black hopefully and much more straight 1194 01:04:18,360 --> 01:04:21,440 Speaker 1: ahead coming up next our final news round up and 1195 01:04:21,600 --> 01:04:27,000 Speaker 1: information overload down. We represent prosperity, economic growth, higher take 1196 01:04:27,040 --> 01:04:30,360 Speaker 1: home pay, more jobs or not Trump. You just said. 1197 01:04:30,400 --> 01:04:32,960 Speaker 1: You just had him the president a minute ago, talking 1198 01:04:33,000 --> 01:04:35,480 Speaker 1: about what he wants to do to make America great again. 1199 01:04:35,960 --> 01:04:38,240 Speaker 1: I think that he's in the right general direction. I 1200 01:04:38,640 --> 01:04:40,760 Speaker 1: personally believe they how to do as much as they 1201 01:04:40,760 --> 01:04:43,240 Speaker 1: can on healthcare right now, but they shouldn't spend the 1202 01:04:43,240 --> 01:04:46,200 Speaker 1: whole rest this year on one issue. They have also 1203 01:04:46,280 --> 01:04:49,600 Speaker 1: got to pass, I think, by Thanksgiving, and get signed 1204 01:04:49,600 --> 01:04:54,440 Speaker 1: into law by Thanksgiving a very large tax cut, retroactively 1205 01:04:54,480 --> 01:04:56,960 Speaker 1: designed back to January one, to make sure that we 1206 01:04:57,000 --> 01:05:00,640 Speaker 1: have enough economic growth in two thousand eighteen, the Republicans 1207 01:05:00,640 --> 01:05:03,440 Speaker 1: can run as the party of prosperity, of jobs, of 1208 01:05:03,520 --> 01:05:06,240 Speaker 1: higher take on pay, and of economic growth. And I 1209 01:05:06,280 --> 01:05:08,920 Speaker 1: would I would say the highest focus ought to be 1210 01:05:09,040 --> 01:05:12,120 Speaker 1: on getting the tax bill through, because if we don't 1211 01:05:12,160 --> 01:05:14,600 Speaker 1: have economic growth next year, I think we're in real 1212 01:05:14,680 --> 01:05:17,840 Speaker 1: danger of having Speaker Nancy Pelos in two thousand nineteen. 1213 01:05:18,000 --> 01:05:20,520 Speaker 1: If we do get into economic growth, I think, frankly, 1214 01:05:20,560 --> 01:05:23,960 Speaker 1: we'll probably get reelected. All Right, News Round Up, Information Overload, 1215 01:05:23,960 --> 01:05:26,280 Speaker 1: Final Hour, Shawn Hannity Show, right down on toll free 1216 01:05:26,320 --> 01:05:28,280 Speaker 1: telephone number. We'd love to hear from you. It's eight 1217 01:05:28,680 --> 01:05:31,680 Speaker 1: nine one, Shawn. That was the former Speaker of the House, 1218 01:05:31,760 --> 01:05:34,040 Speaker 1: New Kingridge on my television show last night, and he's 1219 01:05:34,080 --> 01:05:36,960 Speaker 1: absolutely right. He actually was talking about not only the 1220 01:05:36,960 --> 01:05:39,600 Speaker 1: middle class tax cuts that the President ran on, not 1221 01:05:39,680 --> 01:05:41,880 Speaker 1: only the corporate tax cuts he ran on. He wants 1222 01:05:41,880 --> 01:05:47,000 Speaker 1: about not the repatriation of multi national corporations. We also 1223 01:05:47,120 --> 01:05:52,320 Speaker 1: factored in the millions of high paying energy job, energy jobs, 1224 01:05:52,360 --> 01:05:55,840 Speaker 1: career jobs that would be created as America moves towards 1225 01:05:55,920 --> 01:05:59,560 Speaker 1: energy independence. But one of the key obstacles does become 1226 01:05:59,600 --> 01:06:01,600 Speaker 1: the issue you have healthcare not getting done in the 1227 01:06:01,640 --> 01:06:05,040 Speaker 1: Senate because they're counting on about a trillion dollars in 1228 01:06:05,120 --> 01:06:08,880 Speaker 1: savings as part of their overall economic planning. Anyway here 1229 01:06:08,880 --> 01:06:10,720 Speaker 1: to get into this and much more. As the House 1230 01:06:10,760 --> 01:06:14,800 Speaker 1: Budget Committee chairwoman Diane Black, she's from Tennessee, it's great 1231 01:06:14,800 --> 01:06:17,600 Speaker 1: to have you back. How all right, So how important 1232 01:06:17,640 --> 01:06:20,640 Speaker 1: is that trillion in savings? First of all, well, it 1233 01:06:20,720 --> 01:06:23,040 Speaker 1: is important because it will give us an opportunity to 1234 01:06:23,120 --> 01:06:25,720 Speaker 1: bring those rates down a whole lot more if we're 1235 01:06:25,760 --> 01:06:27,760 Speaker 1: not having to make that up in the baseline. So 1236 01:06:28,200 --> 01:06:30,720 Speaker 1: I want the Senate to get the work done, get 1237 01:06:30,800 --> 01:06:32,480 Speaker 1: us a bill back over here so that we can 1238 01:06:32,520 --> 01:06:35,360 Speaker 1: conference and get that off of our agenda. Listen, we've 1239 01:06:35,600 --> 01:06:37,960 Speaker 1: campaigned on this for ever since I've been up here 1240 01:06:38,000 --> 01:06:39,920 Speaker 1: for the last seven years. Let's fix it and move on. 1241 01:06:41,040 --> 01:06:44,080 Speaker 1: You know, I am so frustrated, as are so many 1242 01:06:44,080 --> 01:06:47,760 Speaker 1: of my conservative brethren, because was about, we'll give us 1243 01:06:47,800 --> 01:06:50,640 Speaker 1: the House, will repeal replace on mohmacare, give us the Senate. 1244 01:06:51,600 --> 01:06:53,400 Speaker 1: We'll get it done. Then when we have both houses. 1245 01:06:54,680 --> 01:06:56,920 Speaker 1: Then they did in to their credit, they sent a 1246 01:06:56,920 --> 01:06:59,760 Speaker 1: repeal bill over. Give us the House, Senate, the presidency 1247 01:06:59,760 --> 01:07:02,560 Speaker 1: will definitely get this done. Now it's we need more senators. 1248 01:07:02,560 --> 01:07:04,680 Speaker 1: We don't have enough senators. Some senators don't like what 1249 01:07:04,680 --> 01:07:08,040 Speaker 1: we're gonna do. And do you understand the frustration of 1250 01:07:08,120 --> 01:07:11,480 Speaker 1: conservatives like myself. I'm like you, lock yourself in a room, 1251 01:07:11,600 --> 01:07:14,600 Speaker 1: roll up your sleeves, and get your job done. Well, 1252 01:07:14,640 --> 01:07:17,360 Speaker 1: I understand it. More than just understanding it. I am 1253 01:07:17,440 --> 01:07:20,440 Speaker 1: with you. I am on board with you. I I know, 1254 01:07:20,560 --> 01:07:23,120 Speaker 1: having been in the minority and the um in the 1255 01:07:23,160 --> 01:07:25,520 Speaker 1: General Assembly back in the state of Tennessee, that when 1256 01:07:25,520 --> 01:07:27,800 Speaker 1: we did finally get the majority, get to learn how 1257 01:07:27,800 --> 01:07:30,560 Speaker 1: to govern. It's not just vote no and be mad 1258 01:07:30,640 --> 01:07:32,760 Speaker 1: all the time. It's a matter of bringing policy to 1259 01:07:32,800 --> 01:07:35,320 Speaker 1: the table. We have good policy out there, and let's 1260 01:07:35,360 --> 01:07:38,800 Speaker 1: just stop worrying about getting everything exactly the way you 1261 01:07:38,880 --> 01:07:41,919 Speaker 1: wanted as an individual, and let's let's get something done. 1262 01:07:41,920 --> 01:07:44,120 Speaker 1: You know, Reagan said give me fifty I'll come back 1263 01:07:44,120 --> 01:07:45,800 Speaker 1: and get the other half of that. Look for the 1264 01:07:45,840 --> 01:07:48,880 Speaker 1: bread at another time, and we have got to move 1265 01:07:48,920 --> 01:07:51,080 Speaker 1: forward with the American people want us to get our 1266 01:07:51,200 --> 01:07:55,360 Speaker 1: job done, and we need to do it. Okay, now, 1267 01:07:55,440 --> 01:07:57,760 Speaker 1: let's go to the president's economic plan. One of the 1268 01:07:57,800 --> 01:08:00,000 Speaker 1: things the former speaker said last night, which I really 1269 01:08:00,120 --> 01:08:02,720 Speaker 1: liked and I hadn't thought about it, is are you 1270 01:08:02,840 --> 01:08:04,800 Speaker 1: a are you a confident that it's going to be 1271 01:08:04,840 --> 01:08:07,760 Speaker 1: the president's plan? Because here's what happened with healthcare, Congresswoman. 1272 01:08:07,800 --> 01:08:09,640 Speaker 1: It really ticked me off. And it happened in the 1273 01:08:09,640 --> 01:08:12,560 Speaker 1: House and Senate. You know, it wasn't a consensus bill 1274 01:08:12,560 --> 01:08:14,840 Speaker 1: in the House. You got but nobody knew what was 1275 01:08:14,880 --> 01:08:16,760 Speaker 1: in the built. They release the bill and said this 1276 01:08:16,840 --> 01:08:21,000 Speaker 1: is our bill. And it was extraordinarily frustrating that that's 1277 01:08:21,000 --> 01:08:24,040 Speaker 1: how the leadership handle did and it ended up making 1278 01:08:24,160 --> 01:08:27,160 Speaker 1: that job fifty times harder than it otherwise needed to be. 1279 01:08:27,280 --> 01:08:29,559 Speaker 1: They did the same thing in the Senate is everybody 1280 01:08:29,560 --> 01:08:32,080 Speaker 1: gonna have a chance to see the economic plan and 1281 01:08:32,160 --> 01:08:37,400 Speaker 1: how closely will that economic plan the budget proposal match 1282 01:08:37,479 --> 01:08:41,160 Speaker 1: up to the President's promises on the campaign trail. So 1283 01:08:41,240 --> 01:08:43,320 Speaker 1: are you talking about the budget? Are you talking about 1284 01:08:43,479 --> 01:08:46,960 Speaker 1: talking about the budget proposal? Because look, I want to 1285 01:08:47,000 --> 01:08:48,960 Speaker 1: I want to get to a balance budget, but I 1286 01:08:49,040 --> 01:08:51,400 Speaker 1: understand that we also have to have these tax cuts 1287 01:08:51,439 --> 01:08:54,760 Speaker 1: to stimulate the economy that the President's you know, are 1288 01:08:54,800 --> 01:08:57,040 Speaker 1: we gonna get a middle class tax cut, a fift 1289 01:08:57,600 --> 01:09:00,000 Speaker 1: corporate rate or somewhere near that. Are we gonna get 1290 01:09:00,080 --> 01:09:04,080 Speaker 1: repatriation from multinational corporations? Let's start there. Yeah, So first 1291 01:09:04,120 --> 01:09:06,519 Speaker 1: of all, let's just started what it takes to even 1292 01:09:06,560 --> 01:09:09,120 Speaker 1: get there, and that is passing a budget. And that's 1293 01:09:09,160 --> 01:09:11,080 Speaker 1: my role in my job as the chairman is to 1294 01:09:11,080 --> 01:09:13,240 Speaker 1: get a budget out of the committee, and I intend 1295 01:09:13,280 --> 01:09:15,759 Speaker 1: on doing that tomorrow. We will be marking up tomorrow 1296 01:09:16,040 --> 01:09:18,680 Speaker 1: because that is our vehicle to tax reform. Without a 1297 01:09:18,760 --> 01:09:23,640 Speaker 1: budget resolution, you can't do reconciliation and and not have 1298 01:09:23,800 --> 01:09:26,719 Speaker 1: the the the the Senate, I have to have culture 1299 01:09:26,760 --> 01:09:29,200 Speaker 1: with sixty votes, and so it's very important that we 1300 01:09:29,240 --> 01:09:31,360 Speaker 1: get a budget off the floor. But we feel that 1301 01:09:31,439 --> 01:09:33,400 Speaker 1: it's also important to do a budget that is a 1302 01:09:33,439 --> 01:09:36,559 Speaker 1: responsible budget, and so in our budget, not only are 1303 01:09:36,560 --> 01:09:40,839 Speaker 1: we concerned about tax reform, we're also concerned about deficit reduction. 1304 01:09:41,280 --> 01:09:43,240 Speaker 1: So we do have a provision in there to start 1305 01:09:43,320 --> 01:09:47,280 Speaker 1: cutting mandatory spending two hundred billion dollars. Look, it's not 1306 01:09:47,360 --> 01:09:50,160 Speaker 1: as much as i'd like. It's one penny out of 1307 01:09:50,160 --> 01:09:52,960 Speaker 1: every dollar. Considering all of our mandatory spending, which is 1308 01:09:53,000 --> 01:09:55,400 Speaker 1: two thirds of our budget. Why can't we take a 1309 01:09:55,439 --> 01:09:59,080 Speaker 1: penny out of every dollar even even mandatory spending. Well 1310 01:09:59,640 --> 01:10:02,040 Speaker 1: you can, and you could do across the board cuts, 1311 01:10:02,080 --> 01:10:04,720 Speaker 1: but then you also cut good programs. So what we 1312 01:10:04,800 --> 01:10:07,000 Speaker 1: want to do. We've worked with the authorizers and eleven 1313 01:10:07,000 --> 01:10:09,320 Speaker 1: different committees. But a penny is not a lot and 1314 01:10:09,320 --> 01:10:11,200 Speaker 1: a penny, you know, when you consider that we have 1315 01:10:11,240 --> 01:10:13,840 Speaker 1: twenty trillion dollars in debt we're dumping on our kids 1316 01:10:13,840 --> 01:10:16,240 Speaker 1: and grandkids. That doesn't seem like that much. Well, it 1317 01:10:16,360 --> 01:10:18,000 Speaker 1: isn't as much as i'd like it to be, but 1318 01:10:18,120 --> 01:10:21,080 Speaker 1: it is a start. And to have eleven authorizers who 1319 01:10:21,080 --> 01:10:24,679 Speaker 1: have agreed with their um each one of their areas 1320 01:10:24,720 --> 01:10:27,280 Speaker 1: and what they're going to be cutting will be a start, 1321 01:10:27,360 --> 01:10:31,840 Speaker 1: we have not done this since, and it begins to 1322 01:10:32,080 --> 01:10:36,120 Speaker 1: change the culture here. And and reconciliation was always supposed 1323 01:10:36,160 --> 01:10:39,720 Speaker 1: to be for deficit reduction. Now granted, will use it 1324 01:10:39,800 --> 01:10:42,360 Speaker 1: for tax reform as well, But we can walk and 1325 01:10:42,439 --> 01:10:44,680 Speaker 1: chew gum. We can do tax reform and we can 1326 01:10:44,720 --> 01:10:47,320 Speaker 1: also do deficit reduction. Both of these are very important 1327 01:10:47,320 --> 01:10:49,240 Speaker 1: to the American people. And by the way, we've been 1328 01:10:49,240 --> 01:10:51,320 Speaker 1: talking about them for at least the six years that 1329 01:10:51,360 --> 01:10:53,559 Speaker 1: I've been up here now seven years. And so our 1330 01:10:53,560 --> 01:10:56,559 Speaker 1: budget has both of those provisions in it. And all right, 1331 01:10:56,640 --> 01:10:59,920 Speaker 1: I mean it says how impacted will this budget proposal 1332 01:11:00,080 --> 01:11:02,960 Speaker 1: of yours that includes I know you're increasing defense spending 1333 01:11:02,960 --> 01:11:06,559 Speaker 1: and yeah, non mandatory spending. You're gonna take a penny 1334 01:11:06,560 --> 01:11:09,280 Speaker 1: out of every dollar. You supposedly have a ten year 1335 01:11:09,320 --> 01:11:14,920 Speaker 1: path to balancing and reconciliation instructions for tax reform and savings, etcetera, etcetera. 1336 01:11:15,080 --> 01:11:16,800 Speaker 1: I get all that, But if you don't get the 1337 01:11:16,840 --> 01:11:19,240 Speaker 1: trillion dollars from the healthcare savings, how much does that 1338 01:11:19,280 --> 01:11:21,960 Speaker 1: impact the bill? Well, we're going to leave that up 1339 01:11:22,000 --> 01:11:24,400 Speaker 1: to the Senate to pass it before we start doing that. 1340 01:11:24,439 --> 01:11:26,479 Speaker 1: But I talked to Chairman Brady today to say if 1341 01:11:26,520 --> 01:11:28,719 Speaker 1: they do not pass their bill, of course, Chairman Brady 1342 01:11:28,840 --> 01:11:32,960 Speaker 1: is means and uh. He said, Look, we're working on 1343 01:11:33,040 --> 01:11:35,680 Speaker 1: what we what we have to do and what what 1344 01:11:35,760 --> 01:11:38,639 Speaker 1: difference that will make in our numbers. So I can't 1345 01:11:38,680 --> 01:11:41,439 Speaker 1: answer that question specifically for you at this point in time, 1346 01:11:41,439 --> 01:11:44,280 Speaker 1: but there are some alternative plans out there, and we'll 1347 01:11:44,320 --> 01:11:46,960 Speaker 1: be ginning you that information as soon as UH as 1348 01:11:47,000 --> 01:11:49,200 Speaker 1: soon as Chairman Brady gives us some information that we 1349 01:11:49,200 --> 01:11:51,680 Speaker 1: can share with you. Can I just ask one thing. 1350 01:11:51,720 --> 01:11:54,160 Speaker 1: I've been talking on this program about the Penny plan 1351 01:11:54,280 --> 01:11:58,679 Speaker 1: for years. One penny out of every dollar government spends 1352 01:11:58,800 --> 01:12:03,559 Speaker 1: one penny every year for seven years balances the budget. 1353 01:12:03,560 --> 01:12:06,000 Speaker 1: Do you agree with that? I do, And I'm not 1354 01:12:06,439 --> 01:12:08,720 Speaker 1: discounting the fact that if we did that that might 1355 01:12:09,520 --> 01:12:11,040 Speaker 1: or that would get us to where we need to go. 1356 01:12:11,200 --> 01:12:13,600 Speaker 1: But I'm also someone who really believes that what we 1357 01:12:13,720 --> 01:12:16,840 Speaker 1: really need to be doing as responsible legislators is looking 1358 01:12:16,840 --> 01:12:19,400 Speaker 1: at these programs, and the authorizers should be looking at 1359 01:12:19,400 --> 01:12:22,040 Speaker 1: every program that's in their jurisdiction and saying is it working? 1360 01:12:22,479 --> 01:12:25,200 Speaker 1: Do we need to reform it? If? If let's say 1361 01:12:25,280 --> 01:12:27,960 Speaker 1: Medicare has been around since nine is it working? Do 1362 01:12:28,000 --> 01:12:30,400 Speaker 1: we need a reform it? Every program should be looked 1363 01:12:30,439 --> 01:12:32,920 Speaker 1: at and we also I like that too, and I'm 1364 01:12:32,960 --> 01:12:36,040 Speaker 1: not saying that you have to have such rigidity. But overall, 1365 01:12:36,080 --> 01:12:40,559 Speaker 1: if the net total amount represents one penny out of 1366 01:12:40,560 --> 01:12:44,360 Speaker 1: every dollar, then we're we're doing something. Absolutely we are, 1367 01:12:44,439 --> 01:12:47,599 Speaker 1: especially when we're spending over three trillion dollars every year. 1368 01:12:48,080 --> 01:12:50,120 Speaker 1: One penny out of every one of those dollars does 1369 01:12:50,200 --> 01:12:53,759 Speaker 1: make a difference. Now, so all right, Well, I appreciate 1370 01:12:53,800 --> 01:12:56,719 Speaker 1: everything you're doing. I hope you get this plan done. 1371 01:12:56,760 --> 01:12:59,679 Speaker 1: I hope the Senate gets their job done on beyond. 1372 01:12:59,720 --> 01:13:02,320 Speaker 1: I'm I'm frustrated, and I'm not the only one, and 1373 01:13:02,400 --> 01:13:04,360 Speaker 1: I agree with you, and I'm right there with you. 1374 01:13:04,400 --> 01:13:06,840 Speaker 1: I'm beyond frustrated to so the first thing, but you're 1375 01:13:06,880 --> 01:13:09,639 Speaker 1: a lot nicer and expressing your frustration that I am 1376 01:13:09,680 --> 01:13:12,639 Speaker 1: about mine, I use words that you would never use. 1377 01:13:12,680 --> 01:13:15,640 Speaker 1: I promise, Well, I'm a lady, and so I'm not 1378 01:13:15,840 --> 01:13:18,519 Speaker 1: You're nice, I'm not. I'm I'm I'm taking all the blame. 1379 01:13:18,560 --> 01:13:22,280 Speaker 1: I'm I'm I'm livid and furious. I'm mad. Well, I'm 1380 01:13:22,280 --> 01:13:24,080 Speaker 1: gonna get my budget out of committee and then we're 1381 01:13:24,080 --> 01:13:26,040 Speaker 1: gonna get it on the floor, and it is coming 1382 01:13:26,040 --> 01:13:27,880 Speaker 1: out of committee tomorrow, and I'm proud of that and 1383 01:13:28,040 --> 01:13:29,600 Speaker 1: all of the work that's been done by all the 1384 01:13:29,600 --> 01:13:32,280 Speaker 1: members of our committee. All right, would you please just 1385 01:13:32,360 --> 01:13:34,840 Speaker 1: try and push for every dollar they spend a penny? 1386 01:13:35,000 --> 01:13:36,639 Speaker 1: Will you do that for me? Just so if that's 1387 01:13:36,720 --> 01:13:39,840 Speaker 1: one little favorite, man, I don't ask a lot. No, 1388 01:13:40,040 --> 01:13:42,240 Speaker 1: that's not a lot. You know, one penny is not 1389 01:13:42,320 --> 01:13:45,080 Speaker 1: a lot. It's not I'm being very reasonable. All right, 1390 01:13:45,200 --> 01:13:47,840 Speaker 1: Thank you, Congressman, mandatory side and go from there. Thank 1391 01:13:47,880 --> 01:13:51,320 Speaker 1: you so much. Have a good day, one Sean. I'll 1392 01:13:51,320 --> 01:13:53,360 Speaker 1: take a quick break. We'll come back and we will 1393 01:13:53,360 --> 01:13:58,080 Speaker 1: continue straight ahead. I'm sitting and and he's out. He's 1394 01:13:58,080 --> 01:14:00,880 Speaker 1: been doing some really good work exposed in Hillary Clinton. 1395 01:14:01,280 --> 01:14:05,200 Speaker 1: Here he exposes how Hillary sided with Russia and Bill 1396 01:14:05,240 --> 01:14:08,280 Speaker 1: got an extra five thousand dollars twice a speaking fee. 1397 01:14:08,800 --> 01:14:13,200 Speaker 1: And then we have Democrats, you know, repeating the phony claims, 1398 01:14:13,240 --> 01:14:17,439 Speaker 1: fusion GPS, the Christopher Steele former m I six agent, 1399 01:14:17,760 --> 01:14:20,720 Speaker 1: Great Britain dossier, you know, the hookers in Russia and 1400 01:14:20,800 --> 01:14:24,479 Speaker 1: the Ritz Carlton urinating. You know, can't over emphasize it 1401 01:14:24,479 --> 01:14:28,680 Speaker 1: would be difficult to overstate the nature of the conflict 1402 01:14:28,720 --> 01:14:31,960 Speaker 1: of Hillary Clinton, her husband getting a half a million 1403 01:14:32,000 --> 01:14:35,080 Speaker 1: dollars directly from the Russians while she was Secretary of State. 1404 01:14:35,760 --> 01:14:38,519 Speaker 1: We were astonished when we saw that the State Department 1405 01:14:38,600 --> 01:14:43,639 Speaker 1: we've got the document, approved this ethics process that allowed 1406 01:14:43,680 --> 01:14:46,439 Speaker 1: this speech and the money evidently to take place, the 1407 01:14:46,720 --> 01:14:49,559 Speaker 1: money transfer to take place. So why would the Clinton 1408 01:14:49,600 --> 01:14:52,080 Speaker 1: State Department allow Hillary Clinton's husband to get a half 1409 01:14:52,120 --> 01:14:55,479 Speaker 1: million dollars from the Russian connected at any Renaissance capital. 1410 01:14:55,800 --> 01:14:59,519 Speaker 1: I don't understand. Imagine, for instance, if the spouse of 1411 01:14:59,600 --> 01:15:01,799 Speaker 1: rex To or Center, a spouse of any other cabinet 1412 01:15:01,840 --> 01:15:04,360 Speaker 1: official got a half a million dollars from a foreign 1413 01:15:04,400 --> 01:15:07,200 Speaker 1: government while that official was in office, and then the 1414 01:15:07,439 --> 01:15:11,160 Speaker 1: same official why Hillary Clinton was was advocating on behalf 1415 01:15:11,200 --> 01:15:14,200 Speaker 1: of Russian interest, not only iranium one. She didn't interoppose 1416 01:15:14,240 --> 01:15:17,040 Speaker 1: iranium one, which saw the Russians get twenty percent of 1417 01:15:17,040 --> 01:15:21,160 Speaker 1: our iranium operations, but then pushed hard for the Russia's 1418 01:15:21,160 --> 01:15:25,320 Speaker 1: against the sanctions. Do you believe anything about that dossier? Oh, 1419 01:15:25,400 --> 01:15:27,800 Speaker 1: I think it should be taking a look at. I 1420 01:15:27,840 --> 01:15:31,920 Speaker 1: think they should really read it, understand it, analyze it, 1421 01:15:32,360 --> 01:15:35,720 Speaker 1: and determine what's fact what may not be back. We 1422 01:15:35,800 --> 01:15:38,960 Speaker 1: already know that the part about the coverage that they 1423 01:15:38,960 --> 01:15:42,720 Speaker 1: have on him, what sex actions, uh, is supposed to 1424 01:15:42,760 --> 01:15:45,799 Speaker 1: be true. Uh. They have said that that's absolutely true. 1425 01:15:46,080 --> 01:15:47,360 Speaker 1: I want to take a moment to turn to the 1426 01:15:47,400 --> 01:15:50,840 Speaker 1: Christopher Steele dossier, which was first mentioned in the media 1427 01:15:50,920 --> 01:15:53,599 Speaker 1: just before the election and published in full my media 1428 01:15:53,600 --> 01:15:57,360 Speaker 1: outlets in January. My focus today is explore how many 1429 01:15:57,360 --> 01:16:00,880 Speaker 1: claims within Steele's dossier are looking more were in more likely, 1430 01:16:01,439 --> 01:16:04,360 Speaker 1: as though they are accurate. Well, but Darcier definitely seems 1431 01:16:04,560 --> 01:16:07,519 Speaker 1: right on these points. A quick pro quel relationship seems 1432 01:16:07,560 --> 01:16:10,479 Speaker 1: to exist between the Trump campaign and Putin's Russia. There's 1433 01:16:10,520 --> 01:16:12,439 Speaker 1: a lot in the Darcia that has yet to be proven, 1434 01:16:12,479 --> 01:16:15,960 Speaker 1: but increasingly, as we'll hear throughout the day, allegations are 1435 01:16:16,040 --> 01:16:18,240 Speaker 1: checking out.

You're the 1476 01:18:37,840 --> 01:18:40,559 Speaker 1: best taxpayer champion in the country. Sean, I am you know. 1477 01:18:40,920 --> 01:18:44,040 Speaker 1: Mr McCollum has been up there in Washington since nine six. 1478 01:18:44,080 --> 01:18:46,360 Speaker 1: I'm sure he's a fine man, but I think it's 1479 01:18:46,400 --> 01:18:48,759 Speaker 1: time for him to go part of being a leader 1480 01:18:48,880 --> 01:18:51,080 Speaker 1: is you bring people together and get them to get 1481 01:18:51,160 --> 01:18:54,200 Speaker 1: them to accomplish the healthcare reform, the tax reform. And 1482 01:18:54,240 --> 01:18:56,400 Speaker 1: he's not done it. So I think we need some 1483 01:18:56,680 --> 01:18:59,360 Speaker 1: more some new leaders in the Senate and maybe even 1484 01:18:59,360 --> 01:19:01,479 Speaker 1: in the House. With certainly in the Senate. I think 1485 01:19:01,520 --> 01:19:03,800 Speaker 1: mccollm's been there long enough. What do you find. I 1486 01:19:03,800 --> 01:19:06,000 Speaker 1: think it's time to get the job done, or go 1487 01:19:06,520 --> 01:19:09,439 Speaker 1: get the job done, or leave and get somebody in 1488 01:19:09,479 --> 01:19:12,960 Speaker 1: place that can get the job done. That's what I said. 1489 01:19:13,880 --> 01:19:16,360 Speaker 1: It's it's really that simple. It's not any more complicated 1490 01:19:16,360 --> 01:19:19,519 Speaker 1: than that. Alright, big time, Joe and elogy, Thank you, sir. 1491 01:19:19,640 --> 01:19:22,760 Speaker 1: Eight one Shawn is our number. Quick break right back. 1492 01:19:22,800 --> 01:19:25,960 Speaker 1: We'll continue alright to the top of the hour. Let's 1493 01:19:25,960 --> 01:19:29,720 Speaker 1: go back to earlier today and the President responding to 1494 01:19:30,000 --> 01:19:33,519 Speaker 1: the inability of the Republicans in the Senate to repeal 1495 01:19:33,600 --> 01:19:38,000 Speaker 1: replaced healthcare. It now seems like Planned C is failing 1496 01:19:38,040 --> 01:19:41,080 Speaker 1: as well as now three Republicans at least have come 1497 01:19:41,080 --> 01:19:44,320 Speaker 1: out against just repealing the measure. Anyway, here's here's what 1498 01:19:44,360 --> 01:19:46,759 Speaker 1: the President had to say. We've had a lot of victories, 1499 01:19:46,800 --> 01:19:50,720 Speaker 1: but we haven't had a victory on healthcare. We're disappointed. 1500 01:19:50,800 --> 01:19:54,000 Speaker 1: I am very disappointed because again, even as a civilian 1501 01:19:54,080 --> 01:19:57,800 Speaker 1: for seven years, I've been hearing about healthcare, and I've 1502 01:19:57,840 --> 01:20:01,200 Speaker 1: been hearing about repeal and reach place, and Obamacare is 1503 01:20:01,200 --> 01:20:05,240 Speaker 1: a total disaster. Some states had over a two increase, 1504 01:20:05,680 --> 01:20:09,160 Speaker 1: a two hundred percent increase in their premiums, and the 1505 01:20:09,320 --> 01:20:13,200 Speaker 1: deductibles are through the roof. It's an absolute disaster. And 1506 01:20:13,240 --> 01:20:16,439 Speaker 1: I think you'll also agree that. I've been saying for 1507 01:20:16,479 --> 01:20:19,800 Speaker 1: a long time, let Obamacare fail, and then everybody's going 1508 01:20:19,840 --> 01:20:23,120 Speaker 1: to have to come together and fix it and come 1509 01:20:23,200 --> 01:20:25,200 Speaker 1: up with a new plan and a plan that's really 1510 01:20:25,200 --> 01:20:28,559 Speaker 1: good for the people with much lower premiums, much lower costs, 1511 01:20:29,160 --> 01:20:32,320 Speaker 1: and much better protection. I've been saying that, Mike. I 1512 01:20:32,320 --> 01:20:35,320 Speaker 1: think you'll agree for a long time. Let Obamacare fail. 1513 01:20:35,360 --> 01:20:38,040 Speaker 1: It'll be a lot easier. And I think we're probably 1514 01:20:38,080 --> 01:20:41,519 Speaker 1: in that position where we'll just let Obamacare fail. We're 1515 01:20:41,520 --> 01:20:43,200 Speaker 1: not going to own it. I'm not going to own it. 1516 01:20:43,240 --> 01:20:44,960 Speaker 1: I can tell you the Republicans are not going to 1517 01:20:45,040 --> 01:20:48,480 Speaker 1: own it. Will let Obamacare fail, and then the Democrats 1518 01:20:48,479 --> 01:20:50,200 Speaker 1: are gonna come to us and they're gonna say, how 1519 01:20:50,200 --> 01:20:52,479 Speaker 1: do we fix it? How do we fix it or 1520 01:20:52,560 --> 01:20:55,200 Speaker 1: how do we come up with a new plan. So 1521 01:20:55,360 --> 01:20:57,800 Speaker 1: we'll see what happens. There's some other things going on 1522 01:20:57,920 --> 01:21:01,280 Speaker 1: right now as we speak. But I am disappointed because 1523 01:21:01,479 --> 01:21:03,920 Speaker 1: for so many years I've been hearing repeal and replace. 1524 01:21:04,080 --> 01:21:08,160 Speaker 1: I'm sitting in the Oval office right next door, pen 1525 01:21:08,400 --> 01:21:12,280 Speaker 1: in hand, waiting to side something, and I'll be waiting 1526 01:21:12,439 --> 01:21:14,800 Speaker 1: and eventually we're going to get something done and it's 1527 01:21:14,840 --> 01:21:17,639 Speaker 1: going to be very good. But Obamacare is a big 1528 01:21:17,680 --> 01:21:21,280 Speaker 1: failure and it has to be changed. We have to 1529 01:21:21,320 --> 01:21:23,280 Speaker 1: go to a plan that works. We have to go 1530 01:21:23,320 --> 01:21:26,600 Speaker 1: to a much less expensive plan plan in terms of premiums, 1531 01:21:27,640 --> 01:21:30,280 Speaker 1: and something will happen, and it will be very good. 1532 01:21:30,560 --> 01:21:32,200 Speaker 1: May not be as quick as we had hoped, but 1533 01:21:32,280 --> 01:21:35,599 Speaker 1: it's going to happen. While they were not disloyal, they 1534 01:21:35,640 --> 01:21:38,080 Speaker 1: had their own reasons. I was very surprised when the 1535 01:21:38,080 --> 01:21:40,800 Speaker 1: two folks came out last night because we thought they 1536 01:21:40,800 --> 01:21:43,559 Speaker 1: were fairly good shape. But they did. And you know, 1537 01:21:43,600 --> 01:21:46,280 Speaker 1: everybody has their own reason. But if you really think 1538 01:21:46,320 --> 01:21:49,160 Speaker 1: about it, you look at it, and we have fifty 1539 01:21:49,160 --> 01:21:52,880 Speaker 1: two people. We had no Democrats support, which is really, 1540 01:21:53,080 --> 01:21:55,320 Speaker 1: you know, something that should be said. We should have 1541 01:21:55,360 --> 01:21:57,680 Speaker 1: had Democrats voted, it is a great plan for a 1542 01:21:57,680 --> 01:22:01,320 Speaker 1: lot of people. We had no Democrats. Port we're fifty 1543 01:22:01,360 --> 01:22:04,960 Speaker 1: two people. We had four nose. Now we might have 1544 01:22:05,000 --> 01:22:07,320 Speaker 1: had another one somewhere in there, but essentially the vote 1545 01:22:07,320 --> 01:22:09,960 Speaker 1: would have been pretty close. Two if you look at it, 1546 01:22:11,000 --> 01:22:15,320 Speaker 1: to four, that's a pretty impressive vote by any standard. 1547 01:22:15,880 --> 01:22:17,479 Speaker 1: And yet you have a vote of forty eight to 1548 01:22:17,560 --> 01:22:21,559 Speaker 1: four or something like that and you need more, that's 1549 01:22:21,560 --> 01:22:23,880 Speaker 1: pretty tough. So the way I look at it is 1550 01:22:24,080 --> 01:22:27,360 Speaker 1: in eighteen, we're gonna have to get some more people elected. 1551 01:22:28,080 --> 01:22:29,519 Speaker 1: We have to go out and we have to get 1552 01:22:29,520 --> 01:22:33,160 Speaker 1: more people elected that a Republican, and we have to 1553 01:22:33,200 --> 01:22:36,040 Speaker 1: probably pull in those people. Those few people that voted 1554 01:22:36,080 --> 01:22:38,519 Speaker 1: against it. I don't know, they're gonna have to explain 1555 01:22:38,560 --> 01:22:40,200 Speaker 1: to you why they did, and I'm sure they'll have 1556 01:22:40,280 --> 01:22:42,960 Speaker 1: very fine reasons. But I think we're gonna do very 1557 01:22:43,000 --> 01:22:45,880 Speaker 1: well actually in eighteen. I would be not surprised if 1558 01:22:45,880 --> 01:22:49,000 Speaker 1: something were done long before that. But in any event, 1559 01:22:49,120 --> 01:22:51,640 Speaker 1: because the margin is so small, the majority margin is 1560 01:22:51,680 --> 01:22:53,120 Speaker 1: so small, we're gonna have to go out and get 1561 01:22:53,360 --> 01:22:57,360 Speaker 1: more Republicans elected in eighteen, and I'll be working very 1562 01:22:57,400 --> 01:23:00,599 Speaker 1: hard for that to happen. Okay, it would be nice 1563 01:23:00,600 --> 01:23:04,479 Speaker 1: to have Democrats support, but really their obstructionists. They have 1564 01:23:04,600 --> 01:23:07,840 Speaker 1: no ideas, they have no thought process. All they want 1565 01:23:07,880 --> 01:23:11,840 Speaker 1: to do is obstruct government, an obstruct period and in 1566 01:23:11,840 --> 01:23:14,559 Speaker 1: this case, think of it. So many good things. We 1567 01:23:14,600 --> 01:23:17,760 Speaker 1: didn't get one vote and their plan has failed. And 1568 01:23:17,760 --> 01:23:20,799 Speaker 1: by the way, Obamacare isn't failing. It's failed, it's gone. 1569 01:23:21,560 --> 01:23:25,120 Speaker 1: So I think something's going to happen. We'll find out. 1570 01:23:25,200 --> 01:23:28,439 Speaker 1: Stay tuned. So the President very clearly just laying out 1571 01:23:28,520 --> 01:23:31,519 Speaker 1: facts here, and that is that Republicans didn't get the 1572 01:23:31,600 --> 01:23:35,360 Speaker 1: job done. Okay, he's not responsible for Obamacare, and that 1573 01:23:35,400 --> 01:23:40,360 Speaker 1: means the ever increasing premiums, the ever increasing lack of care, 1574 01:23:40,600 --> 01:23:45,280 Speaker 1: the ever increasing losing doctors and losing your plans will 1575 01:23:45,360 --> 01:23:48,280 Speaker 1: just continue and it will collapse of its own weight. 1576 01:23:48,520 --> 01:23:52,080 Speaker 1: And if Republicans can't get their act together, and I'm 1577 01:23:52,120 --> 01:23:55,920 Speaker 1: suggesting something that nobody else seems to be suggesting. Look, 1578 01:23:56,080 --> 01:23:58,400 Speaker 1: these people need to get to work. This is now 1579 01:23:58,720 --> 01:24:01,360 Speaker 1: what what's today's day? The eight teenth of July. They 1580 01:24:01,439 --> 01:24:04,800 Speaker 1: have had since January twenty pat Toomey saying, well, we 1581 01:24:04,840 --> 01:24:07,559 Speaker 1: didn't know that the president was gonna win. This took 1582 01:24:07,640 --> 01:24:09,800 Speaker 1: us all by shock. We weren't expecting this. All right, 1583 01:24:10,080 --> 01:24:13,360 Speaker 1: you've now had time to absorb the shock, Senator, and 1584 01:24:13,640 --> 01:24:16,360 Speaker 1: I really don't think there's any excuse. I don't think 1585 01:24:16,360 --> 01:24:19,639 Speaker 1: there's any whatsoever. Well, we only have fifty two senators. 1586 01:24:20,160 --> 01:24:22,040 Speaker 1: We only have the House. Well, we only have the 1587 01:24:22,080 --> 01:24:23,599 Speaker 1: House in the Senate. We don't have the White House. 1588 01:24:23,600 --> 01:24:25,360 Speaker 1: Now we have the House the Senate. We don't have 1589 01:24:25,439 --> 01:24:28,000 Speaker 1: enough senators. American people don't want to hear it. They 1590 01:24:28,040 --> 01:24:31,799 Speaker 1: just don't. So if you guys wanna save your jobs 1591 01:24:32,120 --> 01:24:35,160 Speaker 1: and save your future and do what's right for the 1592 01:24:35,160 --> 01:24:38,080 Speaker 1: American people, stop taking your vacations. And I don't mean 1593 01:24:38,120 --> 01:24:40,880 Speaker 1: just a two weeks, you know delay. You haven't gotten 1594 01:24:40,880 --> 01:24:43,320 Speaker 1: the job done. So I suggest you get a room. 1595 01:24:43,560 --> 01:24:46,000 Speaker 1: I suggest a room big enough for all fifty two 1596 01:24:46,040 --> 01:24:49,760 Speaker 1: of you, fifty one until Senator McCain gets back to Washington, 1597 01:24:50,000 --> 01:24:53,439 Speaker 1: And I suggest that you stock it with water and 1598 01:24:53,520 --> 01:24:56,880 Speaker 1: pretzels and potato chips. You know, well well will the 1599 01:24:56,880 --> 01:24:59,360 Speaker 1: tax payers will bear the burden of the cost of it. 1600 01:24:59,760 --> 01:25:01,800 Speaker 1: I'll pay for it myself if you stay in there 1601 01:25:02,160 --> 01:25:05,760 Speaker 1: and order some pizza, subway sandwiches. I know it's not 1602 01:25:05,840 --> 01:25:09,559 Speaker 1: quite the Senate dining room and lock the door. Take 1603 01:25:09,600 --> 01:25:12,639 Speaker 1: everybody's phone so they don't sit there texting and leaking 1604 01:25:12,680 --> 01:25:15,639 Speaker 1: everything that's going on the entire time. And don't leave 1605 01:25:15,720 --> 01:25:18,800 Speaker 1: the room until you finish the job. Stay in there 1606 01:25:18,880 --> 01:25:22,280 Speaker 1: and do your job, and find a way to thread 1607 01:25:22,360 --> 01:25:25,680 Speaker 1: the needle and bring people together and put as the 1608 01:25:26,000 --> 01:25:28,519 Speaker 1: I put on a chalkboard that I bring in there, 1609 01:25:28,920 --> 01:25:33,120 Speaker 1: serve the American people. Keep your promises and put those 1610 01:25:33,160 --> 01:25:35,680 Speaker 1: words up there, their words to live by, you know, 1611 01:25:35,880 --> 01:25:40,400 Speaker 1: either fulfill your promises or politically say goodbye. And if 1612 01:25:40,439 --> 01:25:42,559 Speaker 1: you can't get the job done, if McConnell can't pull 1613 01:25:42,600 --> 01:25:44,960 Speaker 1: it off, well, then McConnell should step aside, and then 1614 01:25:45,000 --> 01:25:46,439 Speaker 1: we should bring in a new leader. And the new 1615 01:25:46,520 --> 01:25:49,160 Speaker 1: leader should do the same thing. Close the door, keep 1616 01:25:49,200 --> 01:25:52,360 Speaker 1: everybody in session, keep everybody in there, lock it, take 1617 01:25:52,400 --> 01:25:55,200 Speaker 1: everybody's phone, and stay in there until he comes up 1618 01:25:55,240 --> 01:25:57,200 Speaker 1: with a solution or she comes up with a solution. 1619 01:25:57,240 --> 01:25:58,680 Speaker 1: They can't get the job done, then we'll go to 1620 01:25:58,680 --> 01:26:00,840 Speaker 1: another leader. And stay in there. To you, I don't 1621 01:26:00,880 --> 01:26:03,599 Speaker 1: care if you're rot in there with old pizza and 1622 01:26:03,880 --> 01:26:07,160 Speaker 1: French fries and quarter pounders with cheese, And I'll even 1623 01:26:07,200 --> 01:26:09,960 Speaker 1: throw in some corps light, but get your job done. 1624 01:26:10,080 --> 01:26:12,280 Speaker 1: It's not quite the Senate dining room and not quite 1625 01:26:12,280 --> 01:26:15,559 Speaker 1: the Scotch and the brand that is the gauze that 1626 01:26:15,640 --> 01:26:18,599 Speaker 1: everybody's so used to. Maybe that will motivate you people. 1627 01:26:18,600 --> 01:26:20,799 Speaker 1: Maybe turn the air condition off, make you all sweat. 1628 01:26:20,880 --> 01:26:23,960 Speaker 1: All right, let's get to our busy telephones. Patricia is 1629 01:26:24,000 --> 01:26:26,880 Speaker 1: in Montgomery, Texas. Patricia High, how are you? And we're 1630 01:26:26,880 --> 01:26:29,760 Speaker 1: glad you called. Thanks for thanks for having me on. 1631 01:26:30,479 --> 01:26:32,240 Speaker 1: I just want to tell you that I am living 1632 01:26:32,320 --> 01:26:34,400 Speaker 1: with these senators and I'm going to find out who 1633 01:26:34,439 --> 01:26:36,519 Speaker 1: these people are and make sure they don't ever get 1634 01:26:36,520 --> 01:26:38,519 Speaker 1: elected back into office again. If they can't get it, 1635 01:26:38,680 --> 01:26:42,479 Speaker 1: get it together. And I mean, the least they could 1636 01:26:42,520 --> 01:26:46,479 Speaker 1: do is repeal this thing. And um, I don't know, 1637 01:26:46,520 --> 01:26:48,320 Speaker 1: they're just making this look like a bunch. Listen. I 1638 01:26:48,320 --> 01:26:51,599 Speaker 1: said earlier time, repeal is fine with I'm fine with repeal, 1639 01:26:51,800 --> 01:26:54,439 Speaker 1: but I'm fine with the transition. I'm just not fine 1640 01:26:54,520 --> 01:26:57,519 Speaker 1: with a transition that ends up being billions and trillions 1641 01:26:57,520 --> 01:27:00,240 Speaker 1: of dollars in new spending that I'm not fine with. 1642 01:27:00,680 --> 01:27:02,760 Speaker 1: That is not going to solve the problem. That that's 1643 01:27:02,760 --> 01:27:05,160 Speaker 1: the type of thing that we don't need Well, I 1644 01:27:05,200 --> 01:27:09,520 Speaker 1: thought that that planning you had with that doctor founded fantastic. 1645 01:27:09,600 --> 01:27:14,000 Speaker 1: What did anything ever go? Well, here's the interesting part 1646 01:27:14,040 --> 01:27:16,639 Speaker 1: of it. And I've been talking to Dr Josh Numbers 1647 01:27:16,680 --> 01:27:18,519 Speaker 1: since two thousand and twelve. I didn't even know I've 1648 01:27:18,560 --> 01:27:20,280 Speaker 1: been talking to him that long. It's five years I've 1649 01:27:20,320 --> 01:27:22,960 Speaker 1: known this guy. I have been pushing my entire career 1650 01:27:23,040 --> 01:27:25,800 Speaker 1: for health savings accounts. A great book by the Cato 1651 01:27:25,920 --> 01:27:30,000 Speaker 1: Institute called Patient Powder, Musgrave and Goodman are the names 1652 01:27:30,000 --> 01:27:31,839 Speaker 1: of the people that wrote it, and I've been pushing 1653 01:27:31,880 --> 01:27:34,160 Speaker 1: for that for years. But I'll be honest, I think 1654 01:27:34,160 --> 01:27:37,479 Speaker 1: I'm more sold on the cooperative idea because what what 1655 01:27:37,760 --> 01:27:42,400 Speaker 1: doctor Numbers plan and model creates is conci airs care 1656 01:27:42,920 --> 01:27:47,000 Speaker 1: for the average men, for the men and women in 1657 01:27:47,040 --> 01:27:49,720 Speaker 1: this country. Not this is the type of care that 1658 01:27:49,840 --> 01:27:53,040 Speaker 1: rich people get because rich people, even if they have insurance, 1659 01:27:53,479 --> 01:27:57,080 Speaker 1: will pay doctors more money for more services. And that 1660 01:27:57,120 --> 01:27:59,679 Speaker 1: means if somebody's sick at three in the morning, okay, 1661 01:27:59,720 --> 01:28:02,040 Speaker 1: they about deal with the doctor. The doctors come over 1662 01:28:02,080 --> 01:28:05,840 Speaker 1: their house. With this particular case. In Wichita, fifty bucks 1663 01:28:05,840 --> 01:28:08,960 Speaker 1: a month you get the same care, unlimited service, unlimited 1664 01:28:08,960 --> 01:28:11,559 Speaker 1: care unlimited treatments. I mean, the only thing it doesn't 1665 01:28:11,560 --> 01:28:14,360 Speaker 1: cover is a really bad accident or a heart attack, 1666 01:28:14,520 --> 01:28:17,400 Speaker 1: or god forbid, you get cancer. But that's what catastrophic 1667 01:28:17,720 --> 01:28:21,400 Speaker 1: insurance is about. By repealing Obamacare, well then you get 1668 01:28:21,400 --> 01:28:25,240 Speaker 1: to buy catastrophic insurance. By repealing Obamacare, you would allow 1669 01:28:25,600 --> 01:28:28,880 Speaker 1: cooperatives like this now to become a brand new paradigm. 1670 01:28:29,000 --> 01:28:31,760 Speaker 1: You'd allow health savings accounts to flourish, you know, if 1671 01:28:31,760 --> 01:28:33,880 Speaker 1: you just put in a one provision on that. So 1672 01:28:34,160 --> 01:28:37,439 Speaker 1: this is not hard to do. And the fact that 1673 01:28:37,520 --> 01:28:39,760 Speaker 1: they can't get their act together is is it's It's 1674 01:28:39,760 --> 01:28:42,760 Speaker 1: everything I've been saying. It's typical, it's predictable. And what 1675 01:28:42,840 --> 01:28:47,120 Speaker 1: you have now are are democratic, more moderate governors salivating 1676 01:28:47,360 --> 01:28:50,640 Speaker 1: at the idea that Republicans can't accomplish a thing. And 1677 01:28:50,680 --> 01:28:52,240 Speaker 1: if they don't get it done, then they're gonna pay 1678 01:28:52,280 --> 01:28:54,760 Speaker 1: the price politically. And I can't say that I really 1679 01:28:54,760 --> 01:28:57,720 Speaker 1: care all that much because if they don't do their job, 1680 01:28:57,760 --> 01:28:59,600 Speaker 1: who's got you know what, why did we elect you? 1681 01:28:59,640 --> 01:29:02,280 Speaker 1: People want to tell us you can't you can't figure 1682 01:29:02,320 --> 01:29:05,040 Speaker 1: it out. I'm not expecting what I want. I already 1683 01:29:05,080 --> 01:29:06,960 Speaker 1: sucked it up with a stupid house bill that I 1684 01:29:06,960 --> 01:29:10,799 Speaker 1: didn't particularly love, but it's infinitely better than the failure 1685 01:29:10,840 --> 01:29:13,559 Speaker 1: that's going on now anyway. I don't mean to rant, Patricia, 1686 01:29:13,600 --> 01:29:17,040 Speaker 1: but you're right. Well, one somebody had a really good 1687 01:29:17,080 --> 01:29:19,000 Speaker 1: idea yesterday. I remember where I saw it on TV 1688 01:29:19,200 --> 01:29:22,320 Speaker 1: or something, but they had doctors calling in saying, hey, 1689 01:29:22,360 --> 01:29:24,240 Speaker 1: why don't we do this? And why don't we do that? 1690 01:29:24,320 --> 01:29:28,000 Speaker 1: And somebody had this really good idea about, uh, starting 1691 01:29:28,000 --> 01:29:32,160 Speaker 1: a website where you kind of consolidate all your ideas. 1692 01:29:32,360 --> 01:29:34,160 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know why these senators haven't done 1693 01:29:34,200 --> 01:29:36,599 Speaker 1: something like that where they all throw in their ideas 1694 01:29:36,640 --> 01:29:40,360 Speaker 1: and make something happen. Lynda, how many meetings has doctor 1695 01:29:40,479 --> 01:29:43,639 Speaker 1: umbergne to Washington to attend as a result of him 1696 01:29:43,680 --> 01:29:45,679 Speaker 1: being on our show, including with the Health and Human 1697 01:29:45,720 --> 01:29:48,519 Speaker 1: Services Secretary. I would say he's had at least between 1698 01:29:48,520 --> 01:29:50,400 Speaker 1: ten and fifteen meetings on the hill. Yeah, I mean 1699 01:29:50,439 --> 01:29:52,920 Speaker 1: I've ruined this guy's life, Patricia, I mean I really did. 1700 01:29:52,960 --> 01:29:54,400 Speaker 1: I mean he's paying for this out of his own 1701 01:29:54,400 --> 01:29:56,920 Speaker 1: pocket to try and help these idiots get their job done. 1702 01:29:57,520 --> 01:29:59,680 Speaker 1: And and I just know a good idea when I 1703 01:29:59,720 --> 01:30:01,920 Speaker 1: hear it, and it's a good idea fifty bucks an 1704 01:30:02,000 --> 01:30:04,080 Speaker 1: anybody can if you work, you're can afford fifty bucks 1705 01:30:04,080 --> 01:30:10,080 Speaker 1: a month for unlimited healthcare unlimited and pharmaceuticals, every pharmaceutical off. 1706 01:30:10,400 --> 01:30:14,759 Speaker 1: It's ridiculous that this is not duplicated everywhere. It's common 1707 01:30:14,880 --> 01:30:18,479 Speaker 1: sense healthcare. Anyway, thank you for the call. I appreciate it. 1708 01:30:18,960 --> 01:30:21,840 Speaker 1: Heather is in Greenville and North Carolina. Next on the 1709 01:30:21,840 --> 01:30:25,120 Speaker 1: Sean Hannity Show. Heather, Hi, how are you and welcome 1710 01:30:25,120 --> 01:30:29,160 Speaker 1: to the program. I'm good. Actually, I just wanted to call. 1711 01:30:29,200 --> 01:30:32,160 Speaker 1: I had heard you, um last weekend earlier this week 1712 01:30:32,200 --> 01:30:35,719 Speaker 1: talking about dying alone, and I absolutely disagree with you. 1713 01:30:36,600 --> 01:30:41,240 Speaker 1: Oh boy, we're back. You know this is apparently my opinion. 1714 01:30:41,400 --> 01:30:43,479 Speaker 1: I didn't know that. Linda put up a poll on it, 1715 01:30:43,560 --> 01:30:45,920 Speaker 1: but people agree with me. Now, I want to be clear. 1716 01:30:46,000 --> 01:30:48,680 Speaker 1: Somebody said, you mean you're gonna go kill yourself. I 1717 01:30:48,680 --> 01:30:51,280 Speaker 1: think no, no, no, no no. I don't want to 1718 01:30:51,280 --> 01:30:55,200 Speaker 1: be selfish and I don't want my family. If if 1719 01:30:55,280 --> 01:30:57,640 Speaker 1: I know that in three months, you know what it's like. 1720 01:30:57,680 --> 01:31:00,080 Speaker 1: If three months they say you're done, you're an What 1721 01:31:00,160 --> 01:31:02,080 Speaker 1: are the odds a you're going to ever recover? None? 1722 01:31:02,920 --> 01:31:05,960 Speaker 1: If I hear that, if I'm getting to a point 1723 01:31:06,000 --> 01:31:08,120 Speaker 1: that I think I'd be a burden to my family 1724 01:31:08,120 --> 01:31:11,120 Speaker 1: and not able to take care of myself. I would 1725 01:31:11,200 --> 01:31:15,080 Speaker 1: choose to go to not have my family spend the 1726 01:31:15,120 --> 01:31:18,920 Speaker 1: rest of their life cleaning me up and and taking 1727 01:31:18,920 --> 01:31:22,040 Speaker 1: care of my every need. And I'd rather than remember 1728 01:31:22,080 --> 01:31:25,320 Speaker 1: me as I was. And I don't think it's selfish. 1729 01:31:25,320 --> 01:31:29,800 Speaker 1: I'm trying to be selfless here, and I understand that, 1730 01:31:29,840 --> 01:31:33,800 Speaker 1: and I actually can totally understand where you're coming from 1731 01:31:33,840 --> 01:31:37,599 Speaker 1: and respect that desire. But I I'm thirty three years old. 1732 01:31:37,680 --> 01:31:39,960 Speaker 1: My father actually passed away last year, and he was 1733 01:31:40,040 --> 01:31:42,600 Speaker 1: six for many years prior to that. You know, we 1734 01:31:42,600 --> 01:31:45,960 Speaker 1: weren't given a exact number of days or month, but 1735 01:31:46,040 --> 01:31:48,160 Speaker 1: you know it was you know, it wasn't well, but 1736 01:31:48,280 --> 01:31:50,559 Speaker 1: we knew it wasn't well. And two of these years 1737 01:31:50,880 --> 01:31:54,400 Speaker 1: was ridden and you know, we had some home help, 1738 01:31:54,479 --> 01:31:57,120 Speaker 1: but that's really extensive, and it just wasn't feasible to 1739 01:31:57,160 --> 01:31:59,760 Speaker 1: have it all the time. And so I am an 1740 01:31:59,760 --> 01:32:02,600 Speaker 1: only child, and I ended up the ones here. You 1741 01:32:02,640 --> 01:32:07,400 Speaker 1: know him often, and my mother had some disabilities as well, 1742 01:32:07,439 --> 01:32:10,000 Speaker 1: and so I based him and cleanly in and said, 1743 01:32:10,120 --> 01:32:11,800 Speaker 1: you know, a lot of these things and he was 1744 01:32:11,840 --> 01:32:15,000 Speaker 1: a very proud you know, a provider, and he didn't 1745 01:32:15,040 --> 01:32:16,360 Speaker 1: want to be a birden either. But I think at 1746 01:32:16,360 --> 01:32:18,439 Speaker 1: the end of the day, he wanted to be with 1747 01:32:18,520 --> 01:32:20,320 Speaker 1: his family, and I'm glad that he takes me that 1748 01:32:20,520 --> 01:32:23,720 Speaker 1: chance go to spend time with my daughter. And got 1749 01:32:23,760 --> 01:32:29,800 Speaker 1: to know, you're making the best argument I think anybody, 1750 01:32:29,840 --> 01:32:33,599 Speaker 1: anybody could make, and that is that I'm glad he 1751 01:32:33,640 --> 01:32:36,760 Speaker 1: gave me that chance to love him back. Because parents 1752 01:32:36,840 --> 01:32:39,800 Speaker 1: do everything for the kids, I don't know what it 1753 01:32:39,880 --> 01:32:43,120 Speaker 1: is for me, you know. I remember my grandfather and 1754 01:32:43,479 --> 01:32:46,559 Speaker 1: to see this man incapacitated after he had a stroke, 1755 01:32:46,680 --> 01:32:49,920 Speaker 1: and it was just and I didn't mind taking care 1756 01:32:49,920 --> 01:32:51,880 Speaker 1: of him. I really didn't. I mean, I used to 1757 01:32:51,920 --> 01:32:54,640 Speaker 1: love sneaking him a shot of whiskey every day and 1758 01:32:54,680 --> 01:32:58,680 Speaker 1: he'd be very thankful. Um. But I'm just saying from me, 1759 01:32:58,720 --> 01:33:01,160 Speaker 1: it's there. I just prefer that point. I just rather say, 1760 01:33:01,200 --> 01:33:04,400 Speaker 1: all right, have a big party, say my goodbyes. They'll 1761 01:33:04,439 --> 01:33:06,160 Speaker 1: you know, when they'll hear when I die, and I 1762 01:33:06,200 --> 01:33:08,320 Speaker 1: just want to go off alone and not and then 1763 01:33:08,720 --> 01:33:12,280 Speaker 1: let them remember me as I was. That's it how 1764 01:33:12,320 --> 01:33:15,080 Speaker 1: I mostly was in my life. Because sometimes that can 1765 01:33:15,160 --> 01:33:17,400 Speaker 1: linger on for months and months and months and months. 1766 01:33:17,400 --> 01:33:20,120 Speaker 1: It's such a burden on people and I but I 1767 01:33:20,120 --> 01:33:22,040 Speaker 1: wouldn't want anyone to do it to me. That's so 1768 01:33:22,080 --> 01:33:24,320 Speaker 1: there's a little hypocrisy on my part. I agree with 1769 01:33:24,360 --> 01:33:27,160 Speaker 1: that anyway. Thank you for a good call and a 1770 01:33:27,200 --> 01:33:29,800 Speaker 1: compassionate calm. Sorry about your dad. It's it's tough when 1771 01:33:29,800 --> 01:33:31,920 Speaker 1: you lose a loved one, it really is.
