  Speaker 2: going to college there starting next year. Someone in Florida,
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: so you know, I keep an eye on that state.
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: I'm very very close with Randy Fine. He's running against
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: a terrible jewe hating lowlife scumbag sorry Joe named Dan Bilzeri,
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: and he has no right running, you know, fawning over
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: Adolph Hitler and putting horns on my plan. Randy fines
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: head in a video that guy should be excluded from running.
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: He really should. But you've also got bywin Donald's my plan.
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: He should win easily today and others. You got like
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: four or five major races in your state coming up today.
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: Yeah, we have four new open seats as a result
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: of the redistricting that we did this past year, So
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: we're going to pick up four new congressional seats. We
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: made up with a total of eight or nine new congressman.
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: But yeah, Randy Fine I was on the phone with
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: him this morning. Yeah, hit his opponent, that Dan Blazurian
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: guy is a complete joke. He's a fraud. I wish
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: we could arbitrarily kick people off the ballot that's running
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: as a Republican. He does not deserve it. It's a
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: Randy Finespen. He was my roommate when when we were
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: in the legislature together. He's my next neighbor in DC.
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: He's one of my closest friends. And what they've done
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: to him and what they're the fact that they're willing
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: to put that on social media and that people are
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: these you're exactly right, jew haters, and it's it's it's
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: so over the top, but it's a reflection of where
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: society is and where it's heading. And it's a uh uh,
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: And we're going to stomp that out on the Republican side.
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: The Democrats obviously have embraced it. And uh, and we're
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: gonna obviously Randy Fine is gonna have a big win
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: today Byron Donalds, I would imagine, because of the Trump endorsement,
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: will have a big win.
• 3:23
  Speaker 4: Uh.
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: And in Randy also has Trump's endorsement and shows the
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: power of Trump's endorsement. These guys are all going to
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: be winners.
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I want to get back to Trump's endorsement. But
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: one race I'm paying attention to him. It's and I
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: hate Democrats. I hate them all except for one John Betterman.
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: I say it, I hate him, I really do. Uh,
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: there's no such thing as a moderate Democrat anymore. There's
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: one John Betterman there. Low lives, they really are. They've
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: embraced to hate the Jewish people. They they want to
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: chop off our little kids, you know, anatomies. They they're
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: just they're crazy people. But there is one race I'm
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: watching because he's Jewish Moscow. It's down in Florida, and
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: he's running against a guy his name is Olive, who
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: is a psycho DSi anti American, anti jew guy like
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: Mandani Bozarian and everybody else.
• 4:08
  Speaker 4: You know that race, right.
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, and I served with Jared Moskowitz too. Yes,
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: is Key's as close to they come as a monor Democrat,
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: but he voted against the working family tax cuts, so
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: he's no better.
• 4:19
  Speaker 4: Right.
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: But this is a reflection of the Democrat Party. You
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: have forty DSA candidates that have won from coast to coast,
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: not just in places like New York City, but Middle America.
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: And this is a reflection of a party that has
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: Mandami Bernie Sanders AOC as the leaders. And it's not
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: just Trump arrangement syndrome anymore, which is what the party was.
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: The Democrat Party seemed like it was trending towards there's
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: anything the President wanted, they want to go against them.
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: Now it's America derangement syndrome. They're literally rooting against our country.
• 4:49
  Speaker 3: They're rooting against our values and our culture. They want
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: to get rid of things like the border. They want
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: to give Annecy to everybody, including the murderers and rapists
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: they want to give rid of They want to get
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: rid of the Senate. And think about this, like the
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: they have candidates who are coming out and saying that
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: they're against July fourth, like Lsied against Thanksgiving, and I say,
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: you know, the five days that I really love in
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: the year is Thanksgiving week. He's like, watch football with
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: my family, be thankful for everything. Ye. And they want
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: they listen, they want these things gone because they're fundamentally
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: trying to change their country. That's what we're up against.
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: That's why, that's why people are gonna. I think in
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: November people will reject this extremism that's coming out of
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: the left and they'll vote for common sense and the
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: continuation of the president's good policies.
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: I think you're right, and I hope you're right. Yeah,
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: thank god that lady lost. Francesca hung she was in
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: was at Wisconsin. That's right, Ron Johnson state. She wanted
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: to banish Thanksgiving. Then she loved Thanksgiving. She's very confused.
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: She lost anyway, So do you want me to move
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: back to Florida and maybe run for Byron Donald's old
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: congressional seat.
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: Yes, listen, it seems like that sea. It's such a
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: great conservative seat, and they have candidates running NonStop. We
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: need somebody that will sit there for ten years. We're
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: going to get a new one, new nominee today, probably
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: the Trump endorsed candidate Loft that just got the endorsement late.
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: But I'm excited about her or not Lessen, I'm excited
• 6:25
  Speaker 3: about all the Republican chances in Florida. We have such
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: a tremendous state. We've been trending right because we've had
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: courageous leadership at the top. We're doing things right. I mean,
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: we're open for business, low taxes, and people are voting
• 6:40
  Speaker 3: and moving with their feed and Florida's been the main recipient.
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: And once we get past twenty twenty eight and we
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: elect a new president, and we get past the census
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: and we only include American citizens, the electoral numbers will
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: change significantly towards the Republican favor as a result of
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: people moving to states that are like Texas, you know, Tennessee, Florida,
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: states that are solid red because people are moving out
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: of these disaster blue states because misery and demise is
• 7:13
  Speaker 3: a is a choice, and that's where you know, the Democrats,
• 7:17
  Speaker 3: you know, survive and thrive is when you have all
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: this doom and gloom. But if you want to have
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: a chance of the American dream, you gotta go red.
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: No, there's no doubt. And people ask me all the time.
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: I did an interview yesterday too, actually, and they said,
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: you know, Ma'm Donnie's killing New York City. We're praying
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: to God that Bruce Plateman wins in the state over Hulko.
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: Maybe I had one one day, I don't know. But
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: they asked me, how are we going to change this?
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: And I said, I don't think we can because every
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: decent Republican is gone. They moved to Florida, they moved
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: to the Carolinas, they.
• 7:51
  Speaker 4: Moved to Tennessee. They're not here.
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: What decent Republican besides me and a few others are
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: gonna stay in this city, in this state.
• 8:00
  Speaker 4: So really, gruders, Well, I love Florida and I'll be
• 8:04
  Speaker 4: back there one day. Trust me.
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: With Scott and Sean and Andy beg me every day
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: at least while I'm living in New York.
• 8:10
  Speaker 4: You guys are killing me. You're killing me here.
• 8:14
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you're exactly right. It is tougher. And I tell
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: that to people at California all the time. How are
• 8:18
  Speaker 3: you gonna holl Is Hilton gonna win the gunners race?
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: The same thing in New York. It's much tougher because
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: you're exactly right. A lot of people have moved with
• 8:26
  Speaker 3: their feet, So you have to win with less. And
• 8:28
  Speaker 3: I think we just have to. People have to get
• 8:30
  Speaker 3: to the point to where they're so upset at the
• 8:33
  Speaker 3: system in You know, people don't mind paying taxes if
• 8:37
  Speaker 3: they're getting the benefit of having you know, uh, you know,
• 8:41
  Speaker 3: safe neighborhoods, great schools, on and on. But when you
• 8:45
  Speaker 3: give them nothing and you give them trash and you
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: tax them to death, people can't stay. And so that's.
• 8:51
  Speaker 4: What's gonna happen. That's terrible, that's true. Uh.
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: You know you mentioned President Trump Tumorroi'll let you run.
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: And I had a friend tell me last week, Yeah,
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: you know, the last off and I voted for.
• 9:01
  Speaker 4: Him, but I don't like them anymore.
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: And all my friends don't like them anymore, and all
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: my shots, we don't like them anymore. And it's over.
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: I said, wait a second, a second. You have all
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: these races going on all across the country the last
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: couple of months. I believe my stats are right. The
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: candidates that Trump endorsed, hey won like over ninety and
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: then you get the candidates that Trump doesn't like, big
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: miles like Thomas Massey, that low life in Kentucky, well,
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: Bill Cassidy.
• 9:31
  Speaker 4: They got killed, Thomas Massey got killed.
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: So if the Trump endorses candidates are winning and the
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: people that turn on Trump are losing, is that not
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: a great barometer. I think it's great proof to tell
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: people that President Trump is still immensely popular.
• 9:51
  Speaker 3: He is very popular with the bass and because the
• 9:54
  Speaker 3: guy is actually doing what he said he was going
• 9:57
  Speaker 3: to do. He's keeping his promises, He's keeping America safe.
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: He is literally the president of the working class. He's
• 10:04
  Speaker 3: completely transformed the party. The Republican Party is Donald Trump's party.
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: He is our president. He is our commander in chief.
• 10:11
  Speaker 3: He's doing a phenomenal job. And yes, listen, everybody, the
• 10:15
  Speaker 3: alternative think about this. Four years ago, I think inflation
• 10:19
  Speaker 3: was almost nine percent under Biden. He's still dealing with
• 10:23
  Speaker 3: the Biden crisis, and we're dealing with this Iran where
• 10:26
  Speaker 3: what people don't know is we don't see everything that
• 10:29
  Speaker 3: the president sees. The number one priority is for the
• 10:33
  Speaker 3: presidents to keep America safe. He's doing that every single day.
• 10:38
  Speaker 3: He's doing what he thinks is the best interest. He
• 10:40
  Speaker 3: has been an absolute champion across the board in so
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: many different ways. I wish people got to see him
• 10:46
  Speaker 3: like I got to seem like you get to see
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: him and in his element where he's going out there
• 10:52
  Speaker 3: and really going to battle and going to bat for
• 10:55
  Speaker 3: the average American out there. He loves America. He wants
• 10:58
  Speaker 3: us to be in the best possible position. He's willing
• 11:00
  Speaker 3: to expend some political capital to try to make that happen.
• 11:03
  Speaker 3: And we have to support him now more than ever
• 11:05
  Speaker 3: because we're literally facing a party that wants to fundamentally
• 11:09
  Speaker 3: change the way we live, and we got to fight
• 11:11
  Speaker 3: for what we love. We got to fight for what
• 11:14
  Speaker 3: we believe. Our children will live in a world that
• 11:17
  Speaker 3: we want to live have them live in, and we
• 11:19
  Speaker 3: want them to have that opportunity of the American dream.
• 11:21
  Speaker 3: And we're the party Donald Trump's the president to make
• 11:24
  Speaker 3: that happen. We got to give him a full four years.
• 11:27
  Speaker 3: And that's why we're doing that GOP Convention. All your
• 11:30
  Speaker 3: listeners go to GOP convention dot com. You can join us.
• 11:33
  Speaker 3: It's gonna be the first time the public is actually
• 11:35

• 11:39
  Speaker 3: like a real convention. It's gonna be a star studed event.
