1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:01,800 Speaker 1: Welcome to the Tutor Dixon Podcast. 2 00:00:01,960 --> 00:00:05,040 Speaker 2: We get to be at the Job Creator's Network summit 3 00:00:05,080 --> 00:00:07,320 Speaker 2: today and I'm so glad that we have with us 4 00:00:07,400 --> 00:00:11,240 Speaker 2: today a pollster, John McLaughlin is here with us. I 5 00:00:11,280 --> 00:00:13,280 Speaker 2: was just listening to what you said in the room, 6 00:00:13,880 --> 00:00:17,160 Speaker 2: so many valuable points. I find this to be one 7 00:00:17,200 --> 00:00:20,640 Speaker 2: of the most interesting conversations for Republicans right now because 8 00:00:20,680 --> 00:00:23,280 Speaker 2: we're sitting kind of on this pedestal. We feel really 9 00:00:23,280 --> 00:00:27,479 Speaker 2: confident about going into twenty six and that can cause 10 00:00:27,560 --> 00:00:29,840 Speaker 2: us to become a little lazy, right and. 11 00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:30,640 Speaker 3: You get complacent. 12 00:00:30,760 --> 00:00:35,400 Speaker 4: You think that because we because President Trump did so 13 00:00:35,560 --> 00:00:39,280 Speaker 4: well when you think of everything they threw at him. Sir, 14 00:00:39,360 --> 00:00:42,080 Speaker 4: I've always worked for President Trump and andvised him since 15 00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:44,960 Speaker 4: twenty eleven. He didn't run that year in twenty twelve, 16 00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:47,680 Speaker 4: but he ran in twenty sixteen. People didn't think we 17 00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:50,280 Speaker 4: could win, and we ended up in an electoral victory, 18 00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:52,919 Speaker 4: and then twenty twenty looked like we were going to win. 19 00:00:52,960 --> 00:00:54,240 Speaker 3: Everything's going great. 20 00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:57,320 Speaker 4: The tax cuts are working, the economies, homon millions of jobs, 21 00:00:57,440 --> 00:01:02,360 Speaker 4: COVID hits, and by forty four thousand votes in three states, 22 00:01:02,400 --> 00:01:08,199 Speaker 4: we lose the presidency. So this time around President Trump 23 00:01:08,280 --> 00:01:12,679 Speaker 4: was on him mission. He saw Joe Biden dismailing all 24 00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:16,560 Speaker 4: the policies he put in place. In fact, after President 25 00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:19,760 Speaker 4: Trump left office, I had a meeting with him with 26 00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:24,440 Speaker 4: Jason Miller and Brian Jack was there. It was February 27 00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:28,440 Speaker 4: tenth of twenty twenty one, and he's watching He's in 28 00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:29,640 Speaker 4: his office in. 29 00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:31,759 Speaker 3: The ballroom above the ballroom in. 30 00:01:31,720 --> 00:01:35,800 Speaker 4: Marilago, and he's watching the Senate trial of his engcement. 31 00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:38,679 Speaker 4: And we had just done a poll of the seventeen 32 00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:41,600 Speaker 4: battleground states. And I said to him, do you realize 33 00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:44,440 Speaker 4: sixty three percent of the Republicans want you to run again? 34 00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:48,120 Speaker 3: And he looks up from there He's. 35 00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:50,640 Speaker 4: Like really, I said yes, And you realize that when 36 00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:55,120 Speaker 4: Joe Biden's policies fail, which they will, just like people 37 00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:57,720 Speaker 4: in sit I'm an old man. So back in seventy 38 00:01:57,760 --> 00:02:04,200 Speaker 4: six Pagan didn't win the nomination. When he didn't win 39 00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:08,480 Speaker 4: the nomination, four years later, after four years of failure, 40 00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:11,959 Speaker 4: Jimmy Carter Reagan won a landslide. And I said to 41 00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:16,120 Speaker 4: President Trump, when Biden's policies failed, they'll be buyer's remorse 42 00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:20,480 Speaker 4: and you will win the next election. Well, it must 43 00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:23,880 Speaker 4: not have been just my services, but the Democrat surveys 44 00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:28,600 Speaker 4: because at that point in time, they tried to confiscate 45 00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:31,160 Speaker 4: his wealth, they tried to put him in jail, take 46 00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:33,920 Speaker 4: away his civil rights, is right to free speech, and 47 00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:38,279 Speaker 4: didn't give him enough Secret Service protection that he survived 48 00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:43,320 Speaker 4: to assassination attempts. They tried everything to stop him, and 49 00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:46,000 Speaker 4: he never was complacent. He was determined. He was on 50 00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:49,360 Speaker 4: a mission. As they opened the borders, let I legal 51 00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:54,480 Speaker 4: immigrants in. As they rolled back his tax cup policies, 52 00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:59,880 Speaker 4: put mandates on the economy just destroyed American workers hard, 53 00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:03,959 Speaker 4: and the inflationary policies, he got more determined to win. 54 00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:06,280 Speaker 2: You make a great point. So what you're saying is 55 00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:08,880 Speaker 2: the Democrats saw that he was the threat. The person 56 00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:11,760 Speaker 2: the Democrats are attacking is generally the person they're most 57 00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:14,440 Speaker 2: afraid of, and they attacked him more than we've ever seen. 58 00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:17,760 Speaker 2: And he always says I'm the most attacked person in politics. 59 00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:21,280 Speaker 2: But I mean, really, it's become so nasty, and there's 60 00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:25,720 Speaker 2: I actually was writing last night because a girlfriend of 61 00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:27,800 Speaker 2: mine reached out to me and said, I saw that 62 00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:29,880 Speaker 2: you had your daughter at the White House, and she said, 63 00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:32,080 Speaker 2: I just wanted to say, we're praying for you because 64 00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:35,600 Speaker 2: you posted a picture and the comments were so nasty. 65 00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:38,400 Speaker 2: And this is where we are today, where you have 66 00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:41,640 Speaker 2: such cheesy access to attack someone, You have such cheesy 67 00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:43,960 Speaker 2: access to go after their family, to go after their kids. 68 00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:47,480 Speaker 2: They went after President Trump's children. But I think that 69 00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:50,880 Speaker 2: we saw we were watching this, and we were I mean, 70 00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:54,600 Speaker 2: we heard today people saying that this was God's intervention 71 00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:57,080 Speaker 2: to keep him safe because he didn't have the Secret Service. 72 00:03:57,120 --> 00:04:01,560 Speaker 2: You know, there is a greater plan here, but it's 73 00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:02,880 Speaker 2: not a passive plan. 74 00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:04,480 Speaker 1: We have to be active in that plan. 75 00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:06,480 Speaker 2: And your polls show us that we have to be 76 00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:10,520 Speaker 2: out there connecting with communities and talking about the right message. 77 00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:11,880 Speaker 1: And I think it's. 78 00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:15,720 Speaker 2: Interesting that you say that, but you talk about Reagan 79 00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:17,880 Speaker 2: because when I was running for you there the first time, 80 00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:21,719 Speaker 2: I had a guy say to me, when when you 81 00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:24,680 Speaker 2: run the next time, you have a better chance of winning. 82 00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:27,159 Speaker 1: You won't win this time. And I remember leaving that 83 00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:31,040 Speaker 1: meeting and thinking, you that this meeting was terrible. That's terrible, 84 00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:33,000 Speaker 1: But he said, you're going to learn so much. 85 00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:36,960 Speaker 2: And I do think that even Trump having the first term, 86 00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:40,359 Speaker 2: look at what he's been able to think through in 87 00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:42,080 Speaker 2: the four years that he was out of office. 88 00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:43,240 Speaker 1: It's almost a blessing. 89 00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:45,479 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it is a blessing that now he's 90 00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:48,040 Speaker 2: gone in with so much more knowledge and a different team. 91 00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:52,840 Speaker 4: Yes, and he is actually better and more determined because 92 00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:55,920 Speaker 4: we ran a campaign that said he would be a 93 00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:59,320 Speaker 4: better president, and he is being a better president and 94 00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:03,440 Speaker 4: more knowledge experience. He's bringing more loyal people around him. 95 00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:06,599 Speaker 4: He's he's a businessman. He's not a politician, but he 96 00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:10,599 Speaker 4: is a historic figure in American history. And when you 97 00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:12,960 Speaker 4: think about it, when you talk about certain things on 98 00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:16,160 Speaker 4: the internet. They tried, they won last time because they 99 00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:21,000 Speaker 4: censor him. Yeah, on the Hunter Buyden laptop story, thirty 100 00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:23,400 Speaker 4: six percent of the Biden voters were not aware of 101 00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:25,679 Speaker 4: it because they sense it crazy. 102 00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:27,200 Speaker 1: They think that they. 103 00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:29,920 Speaker 4: Sensed the New York Post, they sensed they took them 104 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:31,719 Speaker 4: off X, they took them off Facebook. 105 00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:33,440 Speaker 1: They see, this is. 106 00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:36,320 Speaker 2: The danger right now, I think, because like I said, 107 00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:40,840 Speaker 2: the media on the Republican side is very cheerful. You know, 108 00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:43,839 Speaker 2: we talk about the Democrats and like, oh, how stupid 109 00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:46,120 Speaker 2: that they have all of these people. They don't know 110 00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:48,240 Speaker 2: what their message is. They can't get it together. AOC 111 00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:51,280 Speaker 2: is the leader, Cory Booker doing the right thing, all 112 00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:54,080 Speaker 2: of these Kamala Harris is giving another speech for twenty 113 00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:55,000 Speaker 2: five dollars pop. 114 00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:56,159 Speaker 1: I mean, it all. 115 00:05:56,080 --> 00:06:00,599 Speaker 2: Seems very ridiculous right now, But that's where you get complacent. 116 00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:02,400 Speaker 1: You don't go out and reach out to these groups 117 00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:03,160 Speaker 1: that you're talking about. 118 00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:07,120 Speaker 2: And they were just having a panel on the Hispanic community, 119 00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:09,160 Speaker 2: and I thought some of the messages that we were 120 00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:11,760 Speaker 2: hearing from people in the audience was like, Hey, we 121 00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:14,279 Speaker 2: feel kind of like you're not hearing the little guy, 122 00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:16,880 Speaker 2: You're not hearing the business owner. And I think that's 123 00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:21,359 Speaker 2: something that is more challenging on the national stage. But 124 00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:23,000 Speaker 2: you were talking about, I think we have thirty six 125 00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:26,760 Speaker 2: governor races coming up this year, thirty six states that 126 00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:28,360 Speaker 2: are going to have to reach out. 127 00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:29,080 Speaker 1: To those communities. 128 00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:33,280 Speaker 2: And those races are key because those races will help 129 00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:35,760 Speaker 2: to dictate what happens in the House and Senate. Because 130 00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:37,880 Speaker 2: you've got the top of the ticket has to be 131 00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:40,719 Speaker 2: talking about the right stuff. So what do you say 132 00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:42,680 Speaker 2: to those people who are looking to run for those 133 00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:45,279 Speaker 2: top seat in the state, how they can help along 134 00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:48,120 Speaker 2: those House and Senate seats so that Trump can continue 135 00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:50,400 Speaker 2: his last two years in office doing great things. 136 00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:50,800 Speaker 3: Yes. 137 00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:55,000 Speaker 4: By the way, my colleague Tony for Brizzio and we 138 00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:56,279 Speaker 4: pulled for President Trump. 139 00:06:56,680 --> 00:06:59,640 Speaker 3: We both pulled for a work for. 140 00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:03,359 Speaker 4: Finkelstein, who was their mentor, and he was one of 141 00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:06,200 Speaker 4: the polsters for Ronald Reagan. And I used to bring 142 00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:09,480 Speaker 4: Cannes to and say before I even worked for him, 143 00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:11,480 Speaker 4: bring a Canye. Tonas says, So and someone wants to 144 00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:13,880 Speaker 4: run for office, and the candidate would say, I've never 145 00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:14,600 Speaker 4: lost an election. 146 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:15,440 Speaker 3: I've been city. 147 00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:19,320 Speaker 4: Councilmen, I'm a mayor, never lost election. And Finklestein, who 148 00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:23,760 Speaker 4: say that's terrible, And the candy would look say why 149 00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:24,720 Speaker 4: I've never lost the election. 150 00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:26,200 Speaker 3: He says, you don't know what you're doing. 151 00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:31,680 Speaker 4: On the strongest candidates in American history, Richard Nixon lost, 152 00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:35,520 Speaker 4: came back and won. Raul Reagan lost, came back and won. 153 00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:39,640 Speaker 4: Donald Trump, well, he maybe we didn't lose, but we 154 00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:42,240 Speaker 4: were out of office for four years. Came back and won, 155 00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:45,280 Speaker 4: and he the most historic election. He may be the 156 00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:48,160 Speaker 4: most consequential president in the history of the United States. 157 00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:51,760 Speaker 3: And that's kind of unique. But he learned from losing. 158 00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:54,400 Speaker 3: You've run, you will be a better candidate. 159 00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:57,600 Speaker 4: And when you talk about governors, governors are the ones 160 00:07:57,640 --> 00:08:02,400 Speaker 4: who affect education, the ones who affect the economic policies. 161 00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:03,000 Speaker 3: That attract jobs. 162 00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:08,120 Speaker 4: So if the people running for governors, I mean basically 163 00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:11,720 Speaker 4: during COVID we saw a president Trump, governors had a 164 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:15,160 Speaker 4: lot of powers. Certain states were open, certain states were closed. 165 00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:18,400 Speaker 4: It's not just the president and a lot of the 166 00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:21,120 Speaker 4: because we're a federal system. 167 00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:23,480 Speaker 3: What goes on locally in states? 168 00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:26,560 Speaker 4: Certain states you can see people leaving California, people leaving 169 00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:30,920 Speaker 4: New York, Michigan, right, And there's a reason for that 170 00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:33,160 Speaker 4: because the failed policies. 171 00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:36,400 Speaker 3: You know, a lot of these states. 172 00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:40,680 Speaker 4: If you want to succeed, lower taxes, give people more 173 00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:44,120 Speaker 4: school choice, give people the ability to improve the schools, 174 00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:48,520 Speaker 4: give people, you know, the ability to have more services 175 00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:51,959 Speaker 4: and more freedom. And on that freedom index, if they 176 00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:53,680 Speaker 4: have more freedom, all of a sudden people. 177 00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:54,480 Speaker 3: Come back to the states. 178 00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:57,400 Speaker 4: And a state like Michigan, I mean, Michigan has so 179 00:08:57,440 --> 00:08:58,599 Speaker 4: many things to offer. 180 00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:03,320 Speaker 2: But we have so much over regulation and the licensing 181 00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:06,200 Speaker 2: and the nickel and diming. I mean, you you register 182 00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:08,319 Speaker 2: your car in Michigan, it's it's five times where you 183 00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:10,839 Speaker 2: are going to spend in Florida, and that's hard because 184 00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:12,960 Speaker 2: those little expenses. 185 00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:15,000 Speaker 1: Add up and families go it's too expensive delivery. 186 00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:19,000 Speaker 2: They just raised the hunting licenses, I mean everything, everything 187 00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:22,320 Speaker 2: that they can to raise, because think about it, we 188 00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:25,520 Speaker 2: had a budget that was fifty billion dollars when Gretchen 189 00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:28,040 Speaker 2: Wentver took office. It's now almost well, I think it 190 00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:32,440 Speaker 2: just went over ninety million. In six years. We went 191 00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:35,679 Speaker 2: up that much forty billion. I mean, you could essentially 192 00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:38,560 Speaker 2: double the budget in six years. So you have to 193 00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:40,480 Speaker 2: keep Nickel and you double the budget. 194 00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:40,960 Speaker 1: With fewer people. 195 00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:43,920 Speaker 2: So I was just listening to Senator Joni Earnston there 196 00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:46,920 Speaker 2: and she's talking about freeing up the economy and that 197 00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:51,160 Speaker 2: means that you are by freeing up regulation, you are 198 00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:53,719 Speaker 2: building the economy. And you were saying to build the 199 00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:57,640 Speaker 2: economy to give people money back, you have to build 200 00:09:57,679 --> 00:10:03,480 Speaker 2: the economy. We talked about Michigan being the hub of automotive, 201 00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:08,120 Speaker 2: or at least that's what people believe it had been, 202 00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:12,160 Speaker 2: and that is what the entire state still yes, that 203 00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:15,480 Speaker 2: is the pride, that's our legacy, and almost I would 204 00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:18,320 Speaker 2: say ninety percent of our businesses are supportive of back. 205 00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:22,960 Speaker 2: We have a big agriculture industry, but the other businesses, 206 00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:26,000 Speaker 2: even the ones that are supporting ag are sometimes supporting 207 00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:27,520 Speaker 2: parts for both industries. 208 00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:30,359 Speaker 1: You know, we are highly. 209 00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:34,080 Speaker 2: Automotive, and yet automotive is leaving us because we are 210 00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:37,720 Speaker 2: a challenging. The barriers to entry for business in Michigan 211 00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:41,000 Speaker 2: are so great, and I think that's what people don't understand. 212 00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:43,080 Speaker 1: So hard to just open a business. 213 00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:45,960 Speaker 2: It's so hard to move to the next steps, getting 214 00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:47,840 Speaker 2: the road built, getting the permits. 215 00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:49,040 Speaker 1: Everything's challenging. 216 00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:53,000 Speaker 4: Well, by the way, that's that's why elections have consequences. 217 00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:56,839 Speaker 4: At one point, when President Trump in twenty sixteen, when 218 00:10:56,880 --> 00:10:59,600 Speaker 4: he was running during the primaries, we're in his office 219 00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:02,800 Speaker 4: and lost Wisconsin, and I was going back to work 220 00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:06,400 Speaker 4: for to help them, and he says to me, and 221 00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:08,120 Speaker 4: I said, don't worry, you're gonna win New York, you'll 222 00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:13,360 Speaker 4: win Indiana. Well, we'll seal the nomination. But he says 223 00:11:13,400 --> 00:11:14,960 Speaker 4: to me, do you think I need a tax cutness? 224 00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:16,640 Speaker 4: And of course you need the tax cut. You're running 225 00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:20,000 Speaker 4: in a Republican primary. And he says, oh, where do 226 00:11:20,040 --> 00:11:21,800 Speaker 4: I go? I said, well, talk to Larry Cudlow and 227 00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:24,600 Speaker 4: Steve Forbes. They wrote it for Christy to Whitman a governor. 228 00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:27,600 Speaker 4: They wrote it for George for Takia governor, Mayor Giuliani, 229 00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:32,040 Speaker 4: and they helped Reagan. So the tax cuts that he's 230 00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:35,120 Speaker 4: trying to work to make commany will fix the economy. 231 00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:37,640 Speaker 3: They will grow the economy. That's how we got out 232 00:11:37,640 --> 00:11:38,079 Speaker 3: of inflation. 233 00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:40,200 Speaker 2: I want to understand, the more money you give to 234 00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:43,319 Speaker 2: the people, the autonomy is going to. 235 00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:45,440 Speaker 3: Be and that's why it's popular. 236 00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:48,720 Speaker 4: In December, we pulled sixty seven percent of all voters 237 00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:52,000 Speaker 4: favor no tax on over time, seventy one percent of 238 00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:54,200 Speaker 4: all Americans favor no tax on tips. 239 00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:55,800 Speaker 3: Those are pro growth measures. 240 00:11:56,080 --> 00:11:59,120 Speaker 4: People will work people and they'll grow the economy. 241 00:11:59,280 --> 00:11:59,640 Speaker 3: People. 242 00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:02,640 Speaker 4: Half the voters don't even know that Trump tax cuts 243 00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:04,520 Speaker 4: are going to lapse this year. You get a Paul 244 00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:07,200 Speaker 4: in February Chamber of Commerce. Forty nine percent of hole 245 00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:10,320 Speaker 4: voters don't know the tax cuts elapse, don't know they're 246 00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:13,360 Speaker 4: going to have. If the Trump tax cuts lapse, we 247 00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:15,439 Speaker 4: will have the largest tax cut. 248 00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:17,120 Speaker 3: Tax increase in history. 249 00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:20,600 Speaker 4: So we've got to stop the Democrats from trying to 250 00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:23,839 Speaker 4: raise taxes. They're all on records supporting that. We have 251 00:12:23,920 --> 00:12:26,800 Speaker 4: to get his tax cuts made permanent past. The tax 252 00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:30,440 Speaker 4: uts grow the economy, and governors can do the same 253 00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:34,120 Speaker 4: things in their states, and that brings back jobs, bring 254 00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:35,040 Speaker 4: back industry. 255 00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:37,320 Speaker 3: Then you can improve the schools. 256 00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:41,040 Speaker 4: You'll have the resources improve the schools, and there's so 257 00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:42,240 Speaker 4: many things you can do. 258 00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:46,000 Speaker 2: And in Michigan we just expanded the number of weeks 259 00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:49,280 Speaker 2: that someone can be on state assistance, so that is 260 00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:52,640 Speaker 2: going to prevent And then I thought that was interesting. 261 00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:54,040 Speaker 2: When we were in there, we were hearing from a 262 00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:57,480 Speaker 2: small business owner who said, look, right now, you're forgetting 263 00:12:57,520 --> 00:13:00,280 Speaker 2: about the janitors, You're forgetting about the cleaning. 264 00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:02,280 Speaker 1: People, You're forgetting about all the little guys. 265 00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:06,080 Speaker 2: And she said, right now, for me, it's nobody wants 266 00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:08,280 Speaker 2: to work more than eight hours because if they have 267 00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:10,000 Speaker 2: to work more than eight hours, they can make more 268 00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:12,679 Speaker 2: from the state. And that's where when you remove the 269 00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:15,920 Speaker 2: tips from overtime, if you have a company where overtime 270 00:13:16,040 --> 00:13:18,160 Speaker 2: is critical. We had a foundry, so a lot of 271 00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:21,200 Speaker 2: times ten hours was a normal day. If somebody was 272 00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:23,559 Speaker 2: willing to work it, you know, and they can make 273 00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:26,160 Speaker 2: a lot more money. You've got You've got people that 274 00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:28,960 Speaker 2: can make two hundred thousand dollars a year at a factory. 275 00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:30,960 Speaker 2: And I think that's what's lost on people. They got 276 00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:33,040 Speaker 2: all the blue collar workers. Hey, these guys are living 277 00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:35,360 Speaker 2: a lot better than you and me, you know, because 278 00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:40,560 Speaker 2: hard work gets money. You know, you get advancement when 279 00:13:40,559 --> 00:13:42,880 Speaker 2: you work hard, And that's always been the. 280 00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:43,679 Speaker 1: Story in Michigan. 281 00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:45,040 Speaker 2: That was one of the things when I talked to 282 00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:47,360 Speaker 2: the Asian community in Michigan when I was running, they 283 00:13:47,360 --> 00:13:50,080 Speaker 2: were like, we come from a culture of hard work, right, 284 00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:53,440 Speaker 2: this state has changed. The idea of hard work has 285 00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:55,480 Speaker 2: kind of gone by the wayside. People are being told 286 00:13:55,520 --> 00:13:57,280 Speaker 2: you shouldn't have to work hard and the government should 287 00:13:57,280 --> 00:14:01,080 Speaker 2: support you. Well, we also wanted the American dream, and 288 00:14:01,160 --> 00:14:03,920 Speaker 2: if people aren't working hard, we can't get people to 289 00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:05,880 Speaker 2: help us build up companies. 290 00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:08,320 Speaker 1: I think this is also the complaint. 291 00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:11,560 Speaker 2: People say, oh, this person has this big company, they're 292 00:14:11,559 --> 00:14:14,440 Speaker 2: taking home a million dollars a year. Well, you have 293 00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:18,080 Speaker 2: to remember it, they're creating three hundred jobs. Every person 294 00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:21,040 Speaker 2: who is creating jobs is bringing the state up and 295 00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:22,200 Speaker 2: bringing your taxes down. 296 00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:22,760 Speaker 3: Yep. 297 00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:25,400 Speaker 4: And when you're talking about you were just told about 298 00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:28,080 Speaker 4: workers getting benefits for not working. 299 00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:33,160 Speaker 2: Yes, then you're not a worker, so definition yes, work. 300 00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:36,040 Speaker 4: So the Democrats are saying Republicans are going to cut Medicaid, 301 00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:39,880 Speaker 4: which goes to needy families and people that can't afford it. 302 00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:45,000 Speaker 4: But there's able bodied adults. You aren't required to work 303 00:14:45,040 --> 00:14:49,480 Speaker 4: because the Democrats waive the workfare requirement, so you can 304 00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:52,360 Speaker 4: get free healthcare that the other taxpayers are paying for 305 00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:54,960 Speaker 4: for you to get free health care, and you don't 306 00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:57,920 Speaker 4: have to work. At least, we're saying the Republicans, we 307 00:14:57,960 --> 00:15:00,920 Speaker 4: can save a lot of money once we require them 308 00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:04,320 Speaker 4: to go look for work or find work. Then if 309 00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:07,600 Speaker 4: you need healthcare, then you can get Medicaid. And that's 310 00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:11,960 Speaker 4: a very reasonable reform. And the other thing too is 311 00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:15,160 Speaker 4: they say, you know, you have legal immigrants in the country, 312 00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:18,640 Speaker 4: millions of them they're eligible for Medicaid, and a lot 313 00:15:18,640 --> 00:15:19,800 Speaker 4: of states wine. 314 00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:22,480 Speaker 2: I've got more coming up with John McLaughlin, but first 315 00:15:22,520 --> 00:15:24,240 Speaker 2: I want to talk to you about my partners at 316 00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:29,440 Speaker 2: American Alternative markets are experiencing volatility with brief rallies and 317 00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:32,280 Speaker 2: then those are quickly erased by sharp sell offs. The 318 00:15:32,400 --> 00:15:35,760 Speaker 2: dollar is continuing to weaken on international markets, but gold 319 00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:39,360 Speaker 2: has surged to all time record highs. Wall Street analysts 320 00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:43,080 Speaker 2: are warning of persistent market stress and advising their biggest 321 00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:46,480 Speaker 2: clients to seek safety. Now, when markets swing this violently, 322 00:15:46,560 --> 00:15:50,840 Speaker 2: your retirement savings are vulnerable. It's during these uncertain times 323 00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:54,360 Speaker 2: that people need stable assets. For thousands of years, that 324 00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:57,240 Speaker 2: asset has been gold, and that's why I'm proud to 325 00:15:57,400 --> 00:16:01,840 Speaker 2: endorse American Alternative Assets.

We're going to find out 424 00:20:54,080 --> 00:20:56,880 Speaker 4: we're all rich someday because their idea of raising tax 425 00:20:56,960 --> 00:21:01,840 Speaker 4: That's a good point when you think about text on millionaires. 426 00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:05,560 Speaker 4: Because we do small business owners service for Job Creators Networks. 427 00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:09,360 Speaker 4: Seven out of ten of small business owners pay taxes 428 00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:13,200 Speaker 4: through sub chapter s their personal income taxes, which means 429 00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:17,159 Speaker 4: that business is a ten to fifteen employees. That employer 430 00:21:17,359 --> 00:21:21,040 Speaker 4: is paying his employees out of his personal income taxes. 431 00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:24,439 Speaker 4: You raise their taxes, they've got to cut employees. They 432 00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:28,720 Speaker 4: won't expand they will reduce wages, they reduce hours. They'll 433 00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:33,000 Speaker 4: react because the government has taken more from them that 434 00:21:33,040 --> 00:21:35,840 Speaker 4: they'll have less to give to their workers or profits 435 00:21:36,119 --> 00:21:37,720 Speaker 4: that they can help grow the economy. 436 00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:41,960 Speaker 2: We so many regulations like that. We've got the government 437 00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:45,360 Speaker 2: now going into our small businesses and telling them this 438 00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:47,440 Speaker 2: is how much paid time off you have to have. 439 00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:50,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, and that was the fun in Michigan. Yes, Yeah, 440 00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:52,280 Speaker 1: they just loves. 441 00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:55,200 Speaker 2: That the one Fair Wage Act and they have paid 442 00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:58,600 Speaker 2: time off and they no tipped wage for restaurant workers. 443 00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:00,800 Speaker 3: It's no tip way. 444 00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:04,600 Speaker 1: Yeah. This they now have to make minimumis I get 445 00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:05,159 Speaker 1: restaurant on the. 446 00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:10,560 Speaker 2: Unintended consequences, And when you read it, you can get 447 00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:13,800 Speaker 2: like you're like, okay, I get why they think that 448 00:22:13,880 --> 00:22:16,399 Speaker 2: this is good, but it's actually terrible. If you go 449 00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:19,200 Speaker 2: two steps ahead and you look back, you go, okay, 450 00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:20,560 Speaker 2: that's going to be a nightmare. 451 00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:23,000 Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean even in business. 452 00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:24,719 Speaker 2: I've talked to business owners who are like, we had 453 00:22:24,760 --> 00:22:27,679 Speaker 2: a three week paid time off. Now the government forces 454 00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:30,760 Speaker 2: us to have these seventy hours and they have to 455 00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:32,400 Speaker 2: accrue them, and the gut. 456 00:22:32,440 --> 00:22:34,080 Speaker 1: You have to record it with the government. 457 00:22:34,160 --> 00:22:38,200 Speaker 2: I mean, it's insane to think that the government can 458 00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:40,840 Speaker 2: dictate what your paid time off is going to be. 459 00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:43,520 Speaker 2: Those are the types of things that it's not. You 460 00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:45,560 Speaker 2: know we were talking earlier. It's not just that Trump 461 00:22:45,600 --> 00:22:49,679 Speaker 2: has to rule these things back. The legislatures the Congress, 462 00:22:50,119 --> 00:22:54,800 Speaker 2: that the lawmakers state and federally have to make changes 463 00:22:54,960 --> 00:22:57,720 Speaker 2: to protect because once he's out of office, this can. 464 00:22:57,640 --> 00:23:00,240 Speaker 1: All revert back. And that's why we have have to 465 00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:01,320 Speaker 1: win the House. In the Senate. 466 00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:04,720 Speaker 4: The key thing this year is Republicans. Starting this year 467 00:23:04,760 --> 00:23:06,840 Speaker 4: and the odd year for the midterms, we have to 468 00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:09,520 Speaker 4: play offense. We have to go after the Democrats for 469 00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:11,840 Speaker 4: those kinds of measures who specifically. 470 00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:13,960 Speaker 3: Said, because Nan, you're going to hurt. 471 00:23:14,320 --> 00:23:17,760 Speaker 4: Small businesses, you're going to reduce the number of jobs, 472 00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:21,000 Speaker 4: You're going to reduce the wages that the employees get paid. 473 00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:22,680 Speaker 3: Sure they'll be guaranteed. 474 00:23:23,160 --> 00:23:27,040 Speaker 4: You know, these these steps towards socialism that they're passing. 475 00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:31,240 Speaker 4: But look, in Europe is stagnant, they don't grow their economies. Look, 476 00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:34,280 Speaker 4: and they're socialist countries there, and they're moving right now 477 00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:39,120 Speaker 4: because they got open borders, they got high inflation today. 478 00:23:39,080 --> 00:23:41,080 Speaker 1: Is doing what the Democrats did here. 479 00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:45,280 Speaker 2: They're saying that the right, the group of right like 480 00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:50,040 Speaker 2: right of center whatever politicians over in Germany are now 481 00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:50,960 Speaker 2: an extremist group. 482 00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:54,359 Speaker 4: Yeah, right, they did, that's AFT. That's now the leading 483 00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:58,879 Speaker 4: party and their polls. The Christian Democrats weren't aligned with 484 00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:04,320 Speaker 4: the Socialists to keep the anti immigration party and the 485 00:24:04,359 --> 00:24:08,639 Speaker 4: anti government control party out of office. So it's just 486 00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:11,520 Speaker 4: But see, that's why our ancestors left those countries. It 487 00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:13,880 Speaker 4: came to America because you have freedom here. 488 00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:16,080 Speaker 1: So what does it mean to have AOC at twenty 489 00:24:16,160 --> 00:24:16,679 Speaker 1: nine percent? 490 00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:16,840 Speaker 3: Though? 491 00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:18,200 Speaker 1: What does that mean for their party? 492 00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:21,680 Speaker 4: Well, Harris is still head of thirty percent in their 493 00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:25,520 Speaker 4: primary's got eight, but she's got eight. So I'm rooting 494 00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:28,440 Speaker 4: for her because if we want to see the next 495 00:24:28,440 --> 00:24:31,920 Speaker 4: Republican president, she'd be a heck of a nominee for the. 496 00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:35,600 Speaker 1: Gosh has amazing. 497 00:24:37,080 --> 00:24:39,080 Speaker 4: So but the key thing here is we got to 498 00:24:39,080 --> 00:24:42,879 Speaker 4: look at the midterms. In two thousand and two, we 499 00:24:42,920 --> 00:24:46,960 Speaker 4: did work for Jim Gilmore was the RNC chairman for 500 00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:52,399 Speaker 4: President George W. Bush, and President Bush passed the tax 501 00:24:52,440 --> 00:24:55,280 Speaker 4: cut that went into effect in the second year of 502 00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:57,800 Speaker 4: the midterms, in the second quarter of the midterms in 503 00:24:57,920 --> 00:25:01,160 Speaker 4: two thousand and two to nine to eleven. He put 504 00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:03,840 Speaker 4: money into the economy so we didn't go into a recession. 505 00:25:04,600 --> 00:25:07,880 Speaker 4: So in Virginia in the add year election, we had 506 00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:11,399 Speaker 4: fifty two out of one hundred Republican seats in the legislature, 507 00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:16,240 Speaker 4: we got sixty four. Personally, they took the techniques we 508 00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:18,639 Speaker 4: had in Virginia to turn out Bush voters in the 509 00:25:18,680 --> 00:25:21,719 Speaker 4: odd year. We did that across the country in the 510 00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:24,439 Speaker 4: midi of seventy two hour program. In the mid term, 511 00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:27,560 Speaker 4: with the growing economy, no recession, we picked up two 512 00:25:27,600 --> 00:25:30,719 Speaker 4: Senate seats, we picked up eight House seats. To defy 513 00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:34,960 Speaker 4: the midterm jinx. We need President Trump's one big, beautiful bill, 514 00:25:35,560 --> 00:25:39,520 Speaker 4: a growing economy, We need to keep reducing regulations. We 515 00:25:39,560 --> 00:25:42,720 Speaker 4: need to play offense and all these races for Congress, Senate, governors, 516 00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:47,520 Speaker 4: state legislatures, and basically bring the fight back to the Democrats. 517 00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:50,840 Speaker 4: Act like we didn't win the election, Act like we're 518 00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:56,879 Speaker 4: under nuts exactly, and advance our agenda and if we 519 00:25:56,960 --> 00:25:59,560 Speaker 4: have the growing economy, which I think we will, because 520 00:25:59,560 --> 00:26:02,440 Speaker 4: President Trump has been he's been focused on this. He 521 00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:05,480 Speaker 4: said it at his rally in Michigan in McComb County. Yeah, 522 00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:07,560 Speaker 4: he said that was he said, he what he's going 523 00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:10,240 Speaker 4: to do. And like you said, he's a businessman. When 524 00:26:10,280 --> 00:26:12,120 Speaker 4: he tells you he's going to do something, it's hard 525 00:26:12,119 --> 00:26:14,119 Speaker 4: to get his words at at time. Somebody he doesn't 526 00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:16,960 Speaker 4: make convinced on that nods or shrugs. But once he 527 00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:18,920 Speaker 4: gives you his word and he says he's going to 528 00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:21,680 Speaker 4: do it, he is going to do it. So in 529 00:26:21,760 --> 00:26:24,159 Speaker 4: Macomb County he said, we are going to we're going 530 00:26:24,240 --> 00:26:27,560 Speaker 4: to pass this one big, beautiful bill and it's and uh, 531 00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:28,639 Speaker 4: that's what we need to do it. 532 00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:31,200 Speaker 2: And he told people stay in DC until you vote, 533 00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:35,200 Speaker 2: make sure you vote. So yeah, he's definitely focused on that. 534 00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:37,000 Speaker 1: Let's take a quick commercial break. 535 00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:43,119 Speaker 2: We'll continue next on the Tutor Dixon Podcast. I mean, 536 00:26:43,119 --> 00:26:45,560 Speaker 2: we're seeing the jobs report today. The jobs report came out. 537 00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:49,119 Speaker 2: Then the jobs report looks good. That I think is 538 00:26:49,800 --> 00:26:52,600 Speaker 2: to the Democrat's chagrin. You know, they're like, what the heck, 539 00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:55,320 Speaker 2: how did he do this? Because they don't they really 540 00:26:55,320 --> 00:26:58,800 Speaker 2: don't understand his policies. Yeah, and there are too many people, 541 00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:01,480 Speaker 2: I believe there are too many people that have been 542 00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:04,800 Speaker 2: elected on their side that are activists and not business people. 543 00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:06,640 Speaker 1: They've never signed a check. 544 00:27:07,119 --> 00:27:10,720 Speaker 2: They don't know what it means to stay. 545 00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:12,639 Speaker 1: Up at night wondering how you will pay your employees. 546 00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:15,240 Speaker 2: And Donald Trump has and they go, oh my gosh, 547 00:27:15,240 --> 00:27:18,720 Speaker 2: he's failed, He's gone bankrupt. That's the best possible scenario 548 00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:21,680 Speaker 2: because when you have failed, like you said, even as 549 00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:24,760 Speaker 2: a candidate, if you've never failed, you've never learned. 550 00:27:25,640 --> 00:27:29,199 Speaker 4: And when you think about I mean in terms of 551 00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:32,280 Speaker 4: this election, a lot of times in states where the 552 00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:34,960 Speaker 4: unions are left wing, and we'll ask questions about it, 553 00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:36,600 Speaker 4: and most of them are government employee. 554 00:27:36,920 --> 00:27:38,600 Speaker 3: Is it not private secuity? 555 00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:41,840 Speaker 4: Because like the President said, we won the auto workers, 556 00:27:41,880 --> 00:27:48,119 Speaker 4: we won the construction and trades people. But when we 557 00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:52,200 Speaker 4: see a union influence, we'll ask about, are you, as 558 00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:55,399 Speaker 4: anyone in the household, work for a small business or 559 00:27:55,600 --> 00:27:58,840 Speaker 4: own a small business. Most people don't own their own business, 560 00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:01,960 Speaker 4: but they work for those business Yeah, and they understand. 561 00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:05,320 Speaker 4: And that network is bigger than the union network. And 562 00:28:05,359 --> 00:28:08,359 Speaker 4: when if you make the case that we need the 563 00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:13,080 Speaker 4: biggest I mean this organization job career network, it's because 564 00:28:13,119 --> 00:28:16,359 Speaker 4: small businesses create jobs in America. Yes, not necessarily the 565 00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:18,840 Speaker 4: big corporations because they can leave a drop of a 566 00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:21,240 Speaker 4: hat or go to China or whatever, and they've been 567 00:28:21,280 --> 00:28:25,080 Speaker 4: doing it. But the small businesses stay, build, grow, That's 568 00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:27,720 Speaker 4: how you create jobs. And what we need to do 569 00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:29,760 Speaker 4: is say, we need to grow these small businesses. 570 00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:30,959 Speaker 3: What are we going to do? 571 00:28:31,280 --> 00:28:34,320 Speaker 4: What are we going to do to help them grow? 572 00:28:34,359 --> 00:28:36,920 Speaker 4: And you've got the small business owners here listening. You've 573 00:28:36,960 --> 00:28:41,440 Speaker 4: been through it, family's been through it. And if we 574 00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:43,960 Speaker 4: can grow the small business we grow the jobs, then 575 00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:47,080 Speaker 4: people don't have to rely on the government telling them, 576 00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:49,520 Speaker 4: oh that this is what you can do and this 577 00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:51,360 Speaker 4: is what you can't do, because most of it is 578 00:28:51,360 --> 00:28:52,280 Speaker 4: what you can't do. 579 00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:55,040 Speaker 2: That's why I find fascinating about the Democrats. And I 580 00:28:55,040 --> 00:28:57,200 Speaker 2: know I've kept you longer than I should, but that's 581 00:28:57,240 --> 00:29:01,240 Speaker 2: what I find fascinating is that in Michigan, Gretchen Witmer 582 00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:02,600 Speaker 2: has spent a billion dollars. 583 00:29:02,720 --> 00:29:03,920 Speaker 1: We have this sore fund. 584 00:29:04,080 --> 00:29:06,840 Speaker 2: She's been trying to buy large businesses and she's been 585 00:29:06,840 --> 00:29:09,520 Speaker 2: going for you know, instead of going for the low 586 00:29:09,560 --> 00:29:11,080 Speaker 2: hanging fruit, she's going for this. 587 00:29:11,080 --> 00:29:11,920 Speaker 1: Big golden egg. 588 00:29:12,040 --> 00:29:14,320 Speaker 2: Right, I'm going to bring this big corporation in and 589 00:29:14,360 --> 00:29:17,160 Speaker 2: putting all of her eggs in one basket, and that's 590 00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:19,920 Speaker 2: been a disaster. We were supposed to all of this, 591 00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:22,320 Speaker 2: This billion dollars was supposed to bring in sixty thousand 592 00:29:22,360 --> 00:29:26,720 Speaker 2: dollar jobs. Sixty thousand right now on record it's thirteen 593 00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:31,000 Speaker 2: a maybe maybe thirteen thousand. So we've spent a billion dollars. 594 00:29:31,360 --> 00:29:35,360 Speaker 2: But you're exactly right, if you were to the investment 595 00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:38,040 Speaker 2: can be different than what people think. It can be 596 00:29:38,120 --> 00:29:41,920 Speaker 2: opening up roads. It can be helping this company to 597 00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:44,920 Speaker 2: buy land. It can be extending their property. There are 598 00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:47,120 Speaker 2: so many things that you can go to the low 599 00:29:47,120 --> 00:29:49,920 Speaker 2: hanging fruit to build a couple hundred jobs here and there. 600 00:29:50,360 --> 00:29:52,640 Speaker 1: And that's what I keep telling our legislature. 601 00:29:52,720 --> 00:29:54,960 Speaker 2: I'm like, you have so many people that have come 602 00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:56,760 Speaker 2: to the state mast and let me tell you, I was. 603 00:29:57,080 --> 00:29:58,960 Speaker 1: We were one of them, so I know that the 604 00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:00,200 Speaker 1: rejections are out there. 605 00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:00,800 Speaker 3: Go through. 606 00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:03,040 Speaker 1: That's your low hanging fruit. Those are your jobs you 607 00:30:03,040 --> 00:30:06,080 Speaker 1: can grow right now, right now exactly. That's where you 608 00:30:06,120 --> 00:30:07,760 Speaker 1: can immediately start lifting. 609 00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:11,000 Speaker 2: And as you grow those jobs you can the more 610 00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:13,320 Speaker 2: people you have, the lowerer taxes can be. You know, 611 00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:15,800 Speaker 2: what is the answer to lowering taxes? Put more, have 612 00:30:15,840 --> 00:30:18,600 Speaker 2: more people putting taxes in. Yes, go back to the 613 00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:19,440 Speaker 2: lower rates. 614 00:30:19,560 --> 00:30:22,440 Speaker 4: I mean, supply stide economics works, and it works in 615 00:30:22,480 --> 00:30:26,920 Speaker 4: the polls that in effect, voters were all suppli Sidders. 616 00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:28,920 Speaker 4: Now at that Chamber of Commerce pole that I told 617 00:30:28,960 --> 00:30:33,320 Speaker 4: you sixty four to twenty percent, they support making Trump's 618 00:30:33,320 --> 00:30:34,280 Speaker 4: tax cuts permanent. 619 00:30:34,760 --> 00:30:37,560 Speaker 3: People want those taxes department. They want to have the 620 00:30:37,560 --> 00:30:38,480 Speaker 3: money in their pockets. 621 00:30:38,480 --> 00:30:40,600 Speaker 4: They want to be able to decide after four years 622 00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:43,440 Speaker 4: of high inflation under Biden and Harris and the Democrats, 623 00:30:43,800 --> 00:30:46,360 Speaker 4: we can't afford a tax in the race. Yes, And 624 00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:48,680 Speaker 4: this is what they're trying to you know, the Democrat 625 00:30:48,720 --> 00:30:51,240 Speaker 4: Party is trying to convince us like, oh, we're just 626 00:30:51,280 --> 00:30:53,160 Speaker 4: going to raise it on billionaires, now, don't raise it. 627 00:30:53,120 --> 00:30:56,440 Speaker 2: On everybody, right, exactly exactly, And that's what we've seen. 628 00:30:56,440 --> 00:30:57,040 Speaker 1: In Michigan. 629 00:30:57,160 --> 00:31:00,080 Speaker 2: We had an income tax reduction that was baked and 630 00:31:00,160 --> 00:31:03,080 Speaker 2: if we hit a certain number of surplus, we got 631 00:31:03,080 --> 00:31:06,120 Speaker 2: this income tax reduction. We got it for one year, 632 00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:10,480 Speaker 2: and then they said they had the Liberal Supreme Court say, oh, 633 00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:13,680 Speaker 2: actually we don't think that has to be permanent. It 634 00:31:13,680 --> 00:31:15,720 Speaker 2: doesn't have to be permanent, So raise the text. So 635 00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:19,120 Speaker 2: raises the taxes right back up. The people of Michigan 636 00:31:19,160 --> 00:31:21,600 Speaker 2: deserve that money back. That's what they should get and 637 00:31:21,640 --> 00:31:23,960 Speaker 2: that shouldn't and we should grow that. So I could 638 00:31:23,960 --> 00:31:25,920 Speaker 2: talk to you, I really could talk to you for hours. 639 00:31:25,920 --> 00:31:28,440 Speaker 2: But thank you so much, John mclaughurin.
