1 00:00:00,560 --> 00:00:03,559 Speaker 1: An Hour two. Sean Hannity showed this Friday, eight hundred 2 00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:05,440 Speaker 1: and nine four one. Shawn is on number. You want 3 00:00:05,440 --> 00:00:07,880 Speaker 1: to be a part of the program. Always a privilege 4 00:00:07,920 --> 00:00:11,360 Speaker 1: to welcome back to the program. Former Speaker of the House, 5 00:00:11,440 --> 00:00:15,560 Speaker 1: New King Rich Mister Speaker has a new book soon 6 00:00:15,600 --> 00:00:19,279 Speaker 1: to be released. It's called Trump's Triumph that talks about 7 00:00:19,360 --> 00:00:23,120 Speaker 1: changing the nation, the world and their President Trump. You know, 8 00:00:23,320 --> 00:00:25,640 Speaker 1: I'm actually kind of focusing in on the shock and 9 00:00:25,880 --> 00:00:31,080 Speaker 1: awe aspect and all the reverberations surrounding Donald Trump and 10 00:00:32,040 --> 00:00:35,000 Speaker 1: this week the milestone of one hundred days and the 11 00:00:35,120 --> 00:00:39,760 Speaker 1: left going insane and crazy and absolutely they are the 12 00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:44,280 Speaker 1: nuts party, and more importantly, how the president has taken 13 00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:49,240 Speaker 1: on the institutionalist mindset and he looks at everything anew 14 00:00:49,600 --> 00:00:52,720 Speaker 1: and that is shocking to people. And it's not shocking 15 00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:56,040 Speaker 1: to people like yourself, because you, in your way did 16 00:00:56,040 --> 00:00:58,200 Speaker 1: it in a major way actually when you were a 17 00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:00,480 Speaker 1: Speaker of the House. But it took some used to 18 00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:03,120 Speaker 1: Before you even became speaker, they were saying you're the 19 00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:04,760 Speaker 1: screwge that stole Christmas. 20 00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:07,119 Speaker 2: Well, before we jump into that, I. 21 00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:11,120 Speaker 1: Just reminding you of the fond memories of yesterday here. 22 00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:16,160 Speaker 2: Well, we still are the only people to balance the 23 00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:18,960 Speaker 2: budget for four years and literally one hundred last century 24 00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:21,280 Speaker 2: in one hundred years. So I'm pretty proud of that. 25 00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:23,280 Speaker 2: And now we have a chance to travel. But I'm 26 00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:25,800 Speaker 2: not letting you get off of last night. I thought 27 00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:29,360 Speaker 2: you putting, first of off, putting President Trump in a 28 00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:34,759 Speaker 2: great speech at Alabama, and then pivoting immediately to Kamala 29 00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:40,440 Speaker 2: Harris looking lonely, pathetic, confused. I thought that was as 30 00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:43,280 Speaker 2: cruel as anything I talked. I talked to the President 31 00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:46,560 Speaker 2: later on because I thought his speech was historic and extraordinary. 32 00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:48,720 Speaker 2: I told him, I thought what you did was really mean? 33 00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:51,440 Speaker 1: What was mean about it? 34 00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:55,559 Speaker 2: Because she's perfect. Look just by herself, she's pathetic. Would 35 00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:56,800 Speaker 2: you put her up next to Trump? 36 00:01:57,120 --> 00:01:59,680 Speaker 1: Kind of by design? If you know, I actually think 37 00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:02,160 Speaker 1: through these things. And I thought it was a perfect transition. 38 00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:06,200 Speaker 1: I mean, and if you remember, I stopped at one 39 00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:09,200 Speaker 1: point and I said, I need to, as a public service, 40 00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:11,320 Speaker 1: thank each and every one of you for going out 41 00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:13,880 Speaker 1: and working so hard and voting in this election to 42 00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:14,760 Speaker 1: save us from that. 43 00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:18,720 Speaker 2: Oh I know, and I tell you that was as 44 00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:20,000 Speaker 2: bad as I've ever seen her. 45 00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:23,040 Speaker 1: I mean, it was so I don't know what was worse, 46 00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:26,640 Speaker 1: the giggling, the elephants story, or the dancing. 47 00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:29,480 Speaker 2: Or just or just the look on her face. I mean, 48 00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:35,040 Speaker 2: it's like, you know, she's something. I think she cannot 49 00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:38,079 Speaker 2: come to grips with having lost, and so she's now 50 00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:39,720 Speaker 2: living in a total fantasy world. 51 00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:42,800 Speaker 1: Anyway, But isn't that the case for most people? Haven't 52 00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 1: everyone we learned that yet? No? No, I mean, isn't 53 00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:50,000 Speaker 1: it the regular practice. Though somebody runs for president, they 54 00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:52,840 Speaker 1: all believe they're going to win. That's what I've learned. Sure, 55 00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:56,520 Speaker 1: and they they and and some people a lot of 56 00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:59,400 Speaker 1: people we've seen in our lifetime. Hillary Clinton would be one. 57 00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:02,560 Speaker 1: I'd argue John McCain was never the same after he lost. 58 00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:05,600 Speaker 1: Mitt Romney was never the same after he lost. I mean, 59 00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:07,960 Speaker 1: you can go down the list and people lose and 60 00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:09,080 Speaker 1: then they lose their minds. 61 00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:13,960 Speaker 2: That's true, and maybe that's what's happened to her, which, frankly, 62 00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:16,720 Speaker 2: considering how little she had to lose, is not as 63 00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:19,680 Speaker 2: big a loss as it could have been. Because but 64 00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:22,600 Speaker 2: I just thought it was remarkable, and by the way, 65 00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:25,280 Speaker 2: I went back, I got so intrigued after the show. 66 00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:28,839 Speaker 2: I went back and got the transcript. I think there's 67 00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:32,040 Speaker 2: a section towards the end where Trump goes through ten 68 00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:35,119 Speaker 2: lessons of life that he has learned that I think 69 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:39,880 Speaker 2: is so remarkable that I'm encouraging the administration to find 70 00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:42,080 Speaker 2: ways to get a distributed I mean, it is the 71 00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:47,440 Speaker 2: essence of an intelligent, serious conservatism at a personal level. 72 00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:51,160 Speaker 1: And it's funny of bringing all this up because I 73 00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:55,080 Speaker 1: watched I had never watched a long documentary about him, 74 00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:58,720 Speaker 1: and I saw one. Maybe it was on Netflix or Apple, 75 00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:02,880 Speaker 1: I don't remember, and I just watched it and I 76 00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:05,240 Speaker 1: said to him in a private conversation, and I don't 77 00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:07,680 Speaker 1: mind sharing it with you. I'm sure he wouldn't care 78 00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:13,320 Speaker 1: that what a remarkable life this man has lived. And 79 00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:16,000 Speaker 1: I know the four hardest years. I mean, he could 80 00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:20,360 Speaker 1: have walked away in twenty twenty one and just said 81 00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:23,320 Speaker 1: I became president and gone on him with the rest 82 00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:25,720 Speaker 1: of his life, and probably they would have left him 83 00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:30,120 Speaker 1: alone as my guest. And he decided to fight back, 84 00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:34,640 Speaker 1: and he made it his mission, and he put all 85 00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:37,960 Speaker 1: his chips in the middle of the table, and it 86 00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:40,240 Speaker 1: was either the White House or frankly, in my view 87 00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:43,440 Speaker 1: of the Big House, there was nowhere in between, and 88 00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:45,279 Speaker 1: he laid it on the line for his country, for 89 00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:47,680 Speaker 1: what he believed in, and just being the fighter that 90 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:51,920 Speaker 1: he is. And that's what the shock and awe that 91 00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:53,400 Speaker 1: we see politically every day. 92 00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:56,000 Speaker 2: Well, that's right, and what I was impressed with. I 93 00:04:56,279 --> 00:05:00,360 Speaker 2: put myself in the place of this young pe people 94 00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:03,279 Speaker 2: at that commencement speech. And here's the guy who is 95 00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:07,520 Speaker 2: a billionaire, who is the PRESUNDENTI states, who has survived 96 00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:11,880 Speaker 2: assassination attempts, impeachment attempts, efforts to put him in jail, 97 00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:14,440 Speaker 2: and he is literally at one point in the speech 98 00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:18,280 Speaker 2: sharing and it's very effective. I mean I've literally spent 99 00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:20,840 Speaker 2: part of the morning going over and thinking about it, 100 00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:26,359 Speaker 2: sharing ten lessons about life that he had learned that 101 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:29,480 Speaker 2: he wanted them to learn. And it was a reminder 102 00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:33,120 Speaker 2: to me that Trump is much more a cultural figure 103 00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:37,520 Speaker 2: with political consequences than he is a traditional political figure. 104 00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:41,240 Speaker 2: The reason he resonates is he speaks to the very 105 00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:44,839 Speaker 2: core of American values, to the work ethic, to a 106 00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:48,000 Speaker 2: belief in a better future, to a willingness to do 107 00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:51,599 Speaker 2: what it takes to win. I mean, it is truly 108 00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:54,240 Speaker 2: and I heard all of our listeners to just get 109 00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:57,200 Speaker 2: that one section, which I'm going to post it at 110 00:05:57,240 --> 00:05:59,560 Speaker 2: the English three sixty because I think it's so. 111 00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:02,359 Speaker 1: From you know what, In many ways, I see a 112 00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:05,080 Speaker 1: lot of similarities in you. I remember one speech you 113 00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:08,800 Speaker 1: gave I am a genuine revolutionary, you know, the speech 114 00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:11,400 Speaker 1: that I'm referring to. Yeah, and the way that people 115 00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:13,720 Speaker 1: took that the wrong way. But you know, if there 116 00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:18,000 Speaker 1: was three waves of conservatism in our lifetime, culminating in 117 00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:21,560 Speaker 1: the MAGA movement or Make America Great Again movement, I mean, 118 00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:25,440 Speaker 1: it was Reagan, it was the Gingrich Revolution, and this 119 00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:29,720 Speaker 1: is now somebody that is literally taking a chainsaw to 120 00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:33,720 Speaker 1: the conventional thinking in Washington, which I think is beyond 121 00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:36,279 Speaker 1: refreshing to me, which is why the leftists lost their 122 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:38,960 Speaker 1: mind in this spirit and frankly they've become, my view, 123 00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:40,320 Speaker 1: have become a soloist party. 124 00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:43,680 Speaker 2: Well, I think that's right, and you're going to see this. 125 00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:45,040 Speaker 2: You don't hear me talk about this a lot in 126 00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:48,680 Speaker 2: the next six weeks. Republic The Republican Plan on Medicaid 127 00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:53,400 Speaker 2: raises spending every year that never cuts it. The Democrats 128 00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:55,120 Speaker 2: are going to back to your point by having no 129 00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:58,760 Speaker 2: soul Democrats as a strategy, are going to lie to 130 00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:01,440 Speaker 2: the American people every day, and I think it's a 131 00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:03,960 Speaker 2: trap for them. I think when the American people realize 132 00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:06,120 Speaker 2: and we just did a poll at the American's New 133 00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:09,560 Speaker 2: Majority Project that we run, and when people are told 134 00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:13,320 Speaker 2: the facts, only fourteen percent think that in a way 135 00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:16,520 Speaker 2: of cut. Everybody else is totally happy with it, believes 136 00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:19,200 Speaker 2: it's a fair thing to do. And this is an 137 00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:21,680 Speaker 2: example where Trump is going to be I think extraordinarily 138 00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:24,720 Speaker 2: important and I'm hoping that he'll go on the road 139 00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:27,800 Speaker 2: and go go ten at least ten districts held by 140 00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:30,480 Speaker 2: Democrats where he had a majority of the vote and 141 00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:33,360 Speaker 2: explain exactly what's going to be in the reconciliation bill 142 00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:36,400 Speaker 2: and why you should vote yes. And I think it'll 143 00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:40,160 Speaker 2: be one of the great moments in American history because 144 00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:43,080 Speaker 2: the country will rally and the country will say, Yeah, 145 00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:46,360 Speaker 2: this is the kind of change we need. And the 146 00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:50,440 Speaker 2: Democrats that interfaced with either crumbling and doing what Trump 147 00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:55,160 Speaker 2: wants or I think, basically put themselves in a long 148 00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:59,120 Speaker 2: term decline as a dishonest, corrupt party that votes for 149 00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:00,720 Speaker 2: things that just can't explain. 150 00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:04,480 Speaker 1: You see, but the reason you're so knowledgeable about this, 151 00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:07,320 Speaker 1: and I lived this with you and watched it all unfold. 152 00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:13,760 Speaker 1: When you reduced it's called baseline budgeting, built in spending increases. 153 00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:19,000 Speaker 1: That that's the establishment thinking process, where you budget in 154 00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:22,280 Speaker 1: a ten percent increase every year for however many years, 155 00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:25,640 Speaker 1: and then you know, you insisted on a seven percent 156 00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:29,240 Speaker 1: increase every year for seven years, and they were calling 157 00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:30,880 Speaker 1: it a cut. It was not a cut. It was 158 00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:34,160 Speaker 1: a seven percent increase every year. Those are the exact 159 00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:36,960 Speaker 1: numbers that we were debating back then, and the exact 160 00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:39,679 Speaker 1: same lies that Trump will deal with that you had to. 161 00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:41,920 Speaker 2: Deal with, you know, the one thing I give him 162 00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:43,920 Speaker 2: credit for, though I wasn't fine enough to couple the 163 00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:47,240 Speaker 2: idea of fake as a way of just describing all 164 00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:51,079 Speaker 2: of it. So I've said recently, the last three bastions 165 00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:55,120 Speaker 2: of opposing Trump are the fake news media, the fake 166 00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:59,120 Speaker 2: district judges, and the fake CBO. And fake CBO is 167 00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:01,360 Speaker 2: going to produce a fake score, and we need to 168 00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:03,280 Speaker 2: deal with it that way. We need to say that 169 00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:06,160 Speaker 2: people upfront, this is part of the corruption. You're tired of. 170 00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:09,559 Speaker 2: These people lie to you because they want your money. 171 00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:13,000 Speaker 2: I wrote a piece of the day on the movie 172 00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:16,360 Speaker 2: Jerry maguire where the football player. 173 00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:18,600 Speaker 1: Has shown me the money. 174 00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:21,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, I said, you want to know what the heart 175 00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:23,600 Speaker 2: of the fight over reconciliation is going to be. It's 176 00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:26,400 Speaker 2: going to be every interest group saying show me the money. 177 00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:28,880 Speaker 2: There no policies, no sense. 178 00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:30,920 Speaker 1: By the way, you know, you know who is resisting 179 00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:35,480 Speaker 1: now the most Republican lawmakers in California and New York 180 00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:38,920 Speaker 1: because they want salt deduction, state and local taxes deducted, 181 00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:40,560 Speaker 1: and how much that they ought to be able to 182 00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:44,520 Speaker 1: deduct every year, which to me only rewards states that 183 00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:48,920 Speaker 1: elect tax and spend liberal local politicians. I know why 184 00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:51,480 Speaker 1: they're doing it, because it seems like they're bringing the 185 00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:52,840 Speaker 1: bacon back to the district. 186 00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:54,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think. I Look, when you're when you're in 187 00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:59,160 Speaker 2: the very marginal district, in your anxiety written you try 188 00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:00,720 Speaker 2: to figure out how to appea these people. But in 189 00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:03,320 Speaker 2: the long run you're better off to win the argument. 190 00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:06,600 Speaker 2: This will be a good bill California. By the way, 191 00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:12,040 Speaker 2: as a state legislator, just this week, a Democrat who 192 00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:15,720 Speaker 2: proposed that the first twenty five thousand dollars you steel 193 00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:18,000 Speaker 2: in welfare should not be considered a crime. 194 00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:20,319 Speaker 1: In this the bill you got to be kidding. And 195 00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:21,720 Speaker 1: by the way, you know what they took out of 196 00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:25,920 Speaker 1: that bill. There was this one bill if somebody's assaulted, 197 00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:28,600 Speaker 1: it would be a misdemeanor. It's against a woman I 198 00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:31,280 Speaker 1: believe sixteen or seventeen years old. Off I'm not mistaken 199 00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:33,120 Speaker 1: that they put that in the bill. 200 00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:37,800 Speaker 2: Oh, I know. I mean the California Democrats, I think 201 00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:40,679 Speaker 2: are the epitome of having lost their minds. 202 00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:42,920 Speaker 1: Well, let me ask you. Do you think Gavin Newsom? 203 00:10:42,920 --> 00:10:44,480 Speaker 1: I think Do you agree with me? I think he 204 00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:46,200 Speaker 1: has his eyes on the White House. Do you think 205 00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:47,319 Speaker 1: he has any shot? 206 00:10:47,679 --> 00:10:50,600 Speaker 2: Oh? Look, this is a free country. Everybody has a shot. 207 00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:52,480 Speaker 2: I mean, there were sixteen guys that got on the 208 00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:55,240 Speaker 2: stage with Donald Trump. They all had a shot. They 209 00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:58,280 Speaker 2: just didn't get to win. Do I think Newsom will 210 00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:01,600 Speaker 2: be the next president? No? I think when people learn 211 00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:06,120 Speaker 2: how really sick California has become, how many people are 212 00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:08,600 Speaker 2: leaving it because they just can't stand it, and how 213 00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:13,720 Speaker 2: much Nuissemus part of the San Francisco mafia. These guys 214 00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:17,400 Speaker 2: are a corrupt, old machine of huge amounts of money, 215 00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:20,920 Speaker 2: and they're so far to the left that they probably 216 00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:24,000 Speaker 2: wonder you know why people at Gorbashaw were so moderate? 217 00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:27,560 Speaker 1: All right?

So I'm 244 00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:59,360 Speaker 1: asking everybody questions only because I just just at a 245 00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:03,120 Speaker 1: pure interest. If you had the guest today, who's going 246 00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:05,199 Speaker 1: to be the Democrats nominee in twenty. 247 00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:08,599 Speaker 2: Eight I have no idea. I think I think it 248 00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:10,679 Speaker 2: will be probably an unknown person. 249 00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:13,960 Speaker 1: You really do it may. 250 00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:15,680 Speaker 2: Well be a billionaire who comes out of nowhere. 251 00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:19,199 Speaker 1: Do you see any path for a moderate let's say 252 00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:21,880 Speaker 1: it Joshapiro to get the nomination, because I don't. 253 00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:24,800 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, well there's a path, but it'll be tough. 254 00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:28,839 Speaker 2: I read Pritsker's speech in New Hampshire. Now, Prisko is 255 00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:31,360 Speaker 2: rich enough that if he wants to run, he can 256 00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:34,280 Speaker 2: fund the whole thing. Now, he's also I think a 257 00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:36,880 Speaker 2: terrible governor. He's a left wing earned not a very 258 00:13:36,880 --> 00:13:41,200 Speaker 2: attractive personality, but there's so many people like that. Out there, 259 00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:45,760 Speaker 2: and I don't think we know yet. If trump Ism 260 00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:48,640 Speaker 2: is working, if the economy, which I think it will be, 261 00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:53,080 Speaker 2: if the economy is booming, if we really are healthier, safer, 262 00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:56,280 Speaker 2: and people feel good about it. The Democrats will be 263 00:13:56,280 --> 00:14:00,000 Speaker 2: in turmodel because some of them will rationally say, shouldn't 264 00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:02,600 Speaker 2: we kind of go towards the center, But their hard 265 00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:05,080 Speaker 2: left is going to say no. You know, you have 266 00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:07,120 Speaker 2: to be of the true faith, you have to be 267 00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:09,280 Speaker 2: for things that are insane if you're not, which is 268 00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:11,720 Speaker 2: the whole story of the California Republic Democratic Party. 269 00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:17,080 Speaker 1: Democratic primary voters tend to be leaning towards the more 270 00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:19,040 Speaker 1: radical left, don't you agree? 271 00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:21,440 Speaker 2: Yeah? I think I think you get the excitement and 272 00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:25,520 Speaker 2: the turnout with the Bernie Sanders AOC, you know, and 273 00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:29,160 Speaker 2: and and you know. I mean to be fair Newsome 274 00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:33,160 Speaker 2: if if he starts with California, he has a pretty 275 00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:36,240 Speaker 2: big block to start with. But I personally find Newsome 276 00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:40,960 Speaker 2: not convincing. I mean, he is so plastic. That might 277 00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:43,400 Speaker 2: just be my bias because I'm come from a different 278 00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:46,360 Speaker 2: brand of politics, but I mean, I frankly think that 279 00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:49,560 Speaker 2: that the governor of Michigan is much more dangerous. So 280 00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:52,760 Speaker 2: the governor of Pennsylvania are both much more dangerous than 281 00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:53,080 Speaker 2: he is. 282 00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:57,080 Speaker 1: But again, you know, where's the energy in the party, 283 00:14:57,120 --> 00:15:00,680 Speaker 1: the energies towards AOC, Bernie and Jazz and Crockett. 284 00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:02,360 Speaker 2: That's right. You know. 285 00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:04,280 Speaker 1: I'm going to go over the ten things that you're 286 00:15:04,280 --> 00:15:08,120 Speaker 1: going to post on Gingridge three sixty and we'll link 287 00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:11,840 Speaker 1: to yours when you put it up on Hannity dot com. 288 00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:15,960 Speaker 1: Mister speaker, we always enjoy having you. I first interviewed 289 00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:19,880 Speaker 1: Nuke Gingridge in nineteen ninety in Decatur, Alabama, in a 290 00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:24,280 Speaker 1: holiday in hotel room. And there is a picture somewhere 291 00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:27,400 Speaker 1: I don't know where, but there is one I have, 292 00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:32,200 Speaker 1: and I have a renewing American civilization. What do you 293 00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:35,120 Speaker 1: call those tapes? The vhas tapes?

I went back and watched it. I ordered 299 00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:47,160 Speaker 1: it on like eBay years ago, and then I kept it. 300 00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:50,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it's fair to say I got to 301 00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:53,760 Speaker 2: be a much more competent politician, and you got to 302 00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:56,120 Speaker 2: be a much more confident radio host. But boy, I 303 00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:58,720 Speaker 2: would love to have that original interview of the two 304 00:15:58,760 --> 00:15:59,480 Speaker 2: of us. 305 00:15:59,840 --> 00:16:02,360 Speaker 1: I would I would rather never hear it as long 306 00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:04,560 Speaker 1: as I live.

And he's just I mean, 506 00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:26,560 Speaker 6: my God, listen to him. He's like, I'm blessed and 507 00:26:26,600 --> 00:26:29,840 Speaker 6: favored by the Lord. I mean, the guy is so reverent, 508 00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:32,480 Speaker 6: so kind, so grateful. It's just he's just awesome. 509 00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:36,600 Speaker 1: I don't know. I mean, I I don't understand. I 510 00:26:36,640 --> 00:26:39,400 Speaker 1: do know people in life that are cheap, I really do, 511 00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:44,280 Speaker 1: and I sometimes it's inexplicable to me. You know, I 512 00:26:44,320 --> 00:26:47,439 Speaker 1: do have this sense that if you been blessed in 513 00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:50,120 Speaker 1: your life, that you do have an obligation to help 514 00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:53,919 Speaker 1: other people. I can't help everybody out, you know, but 515 00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:58,040 Speaker 1: when I can, and I see the moment, you know, 516 00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:00,720 Speaker 1: like churches talk about tithing, right, and I do give 517 00:27:00,760 --> 00:27:04,080 Speaker 1: money to my church, But I'm not the big that 518 00:27:04,960 --> 00:27:07,320 Speaker 1: there's lots of ways to me you can tie. Then 519 00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:10,040 Speaker 1: maybe I'm just this is my own thought process. But 520 00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:13,080 Speaker 1: when you see somebody in need, you help them. I 521 00:27:13,119 --> 00:27:16,360 Speaker 1: think that just as if you can, you help them. 522 00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:18,840 Speaker 6: You know, I saw this thing the other day on 523 00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:21,399 Speaker 6: X and I'm addicted to X.

I'm trying to get baby food 529 00:27:33,760 --> 00:27:36,480 Speaker 6: and I can't afford it. And whoever helps him out 530 00:27:36,520 --> 00:27:38,760 Speaker 6: from the kindness of their heart, he gives them like 531 00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:41,320 Speaker 6: five hundred dollars or a thousand dollars or whatever. This 532 00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:44,440 Speaker 6: particular guy worked at the store gave him the dollar, 533 00:27:44,440 --> 00:27:46,360 Speaker 6: and he goes, listen, this is this is all I have, 534 00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:48,919 Speaker 6: but I hope it helps with your baby. And he 535 00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:51,160 Speaker 6: hands them five hundred dollars on the spot. Well, somebody 536 00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:52,720 Speaker 6: else stopped him on the way and he said, listen, 537 00:27:52,720 --> 00:27:54,640 Speaker 6: that guy's homeless.

They're both in the car with me, right, 545 00:28:16,160 --> 00:28:21,720 Speaker 1: and I just see this old, elderly homeless guy and 546 00:28:21,760 --> 00:28:25,439 Speaker 1: it was such a sad, sad picture. I mean, his 547 00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:30,919 Speaker 1: head is down, he looks just so beaten down, depressed, defeated, 548 00:28:31,920 --> 00:28:35,800 Speaker 1: and I just pulled over the car and my kids 549 00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:39,920 Speaker 1: in the back are like amongst themselves, and they told 550 00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:41,800 Speaker 1: me after they're betting how much I was going to 551 00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:44,680 Speaker 1: give the guy, because they've they've seen me do this 552 00:28:44,720 --> 00:28:46,960 Speaker 1: before and we talk about it. The only thing I 553 00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:50,200 Speaker 1: do say to people when I give the money, I'm saying, please, 554 00:28:50,240 --> 00:28:53,600 Speaker 1: don't spend this money, my money on alcohol and drugs. 555 00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:56,800 Speaker 1: I do say that. And I asked them are you drinking? 556 00:28:56,920 --> 00:28:58,960 Speaker 1: Are you? You know? And some people are honest, some 557 00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:01,680 Speaker 1: people aren't, you know. In this case, I don't think 558 00:29:01,720 --> 00:29:06,320 Speaker 1: the guy drank. I really don't. I just hope he didn't. 559 00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:10,480 Speaker 1: Just I hope, Well, I didn't get he certainly was 560 00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:13,080 Speaker 1: sober when when I saw him, didn't seem like the 561 00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:17,280 Speaker 1: type of guy that was using drugs, And so, you know, 562 00:29:17,320 --> 00:29:20,000 Speaker 1: I just handed the guy I always carried cash. My 563 00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:22,480 Speaker 1: kids don't understand that either. They don't care kids today. 564 00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:23,120 Speaker 1: Don't carry cash? 565 00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:23,320 Speaker 5: Do you? 566 00:29:23,360 --> 00:29:26,240 Speaker 1: Kids carry? Gotta carry cash? Cash is case exactly. I 567 00:29:26,280 --> 00:29:27,719 Speaker 1: tell them all the time and I'm like, how much 568 00:29:27,760 --> 00:29:30,960 Speaker 1: do you have on you? And I'm like, oh, and 569 00:29:30,960 --> 00:29:32,880 Speaker 1: then I'm like, I'm taking money out of my pot. 570 00:29:32,920 --> 00:29:35,520 Speaker 1: Always carried cash. I have to fight with them every 571 00:29:35,560 --> 00:29:37,600 Speaker 1: single time I see them. I'm like, what do I 572 00:29:37,640 --> 00:29:41,120 Speaker 1: tell you? Always carry cash? And anyway, so I gave 573 00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:44,880 Speaker 1: the guy a hundred bucks and I'm like, and I 574 00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:47,479 Speaker 1: just think. And my kids asked me, well, what if 575 00:29:47,520 --> 00:29:49,920 Speaker 1: they what if they do buy alcoholic drugs? I said, 576 00:29:49,920 --> 00:29:52,760 Speaker 1: that's on them because I asked them not to do 577 00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:56,000 Speaker 1: that at that point. And there was a point in 578 00:29:56,040 --> 00:29:58,760 Speaker 1: my life I thought, well, you're just enabling people, et cetera, 579 00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:01,959 Speaker 1: et cetera. I mean, when somebody is that beaten down, 580 00:30:02,760 --> 00:30:04,920 Speaker 1: there's nothing that they're going to be that you're going 581 00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:06,440 Speaker 1: to be able to say that it's going to get 582 00:30:06,440 --> 00:30:10,080 Speaker 1: them into a job that day or anytime soon. And 583 00:30:10,160 --> 00:30:14,200 Speaker 1: so many people have mental health issues. Anyway, I think 584 00:30:14,240 --> 00:30:17,880 Speaker 1: that it is nice. And I will say this the 585 00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:20,040 Speaker 1: American people and all of you, in your own way, 586 00:30:20,080 --> 00:30:24,440 Speaker 1: I'm sure have all reached into your pocket to help 587 00:30:24,440 --> 00:30:26,680 Speaker 1: people out when you can, and it doesn't matter. I 588 00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:29,000 Speaker 1: don't care if it's two dollars of five dollars, I 589 00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:32,200 Speaker 1: don't care what it is. It's it's it's and it's 590 00:30:32,240 --> 00:30:34,640 Speaker 1: not a cliche to say it's the thought that counts. 591 00:30:34,680 --> 00:30:38,320 Speaker 1: It's just human decency. If you can help people, why not. 592 00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:40,720 Speaker 1: All right, take a quick break, we'll come back.
