  Speaker 3: I will faithfully execute.

  Speaker 1: That I will faithfully execute the office of President of
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: the United States, the office of President of the United States,
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: and will to the best of my ability.
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: And will, to the best of my ability.
• 0:25
  Speaker 3: Preserve, protect and defend, deserve, protect, and defend the Constitution
• 0:30
  Speaker 3: of the United States.
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: The Constitution of the United States.
• 0:33
  Speaker 3: So help me, God, So help me God.
• 0:35
  Speaker 4: Congratulations specifically, well, today I'm one leg up with Alex Garrett.
• 0:45
  Speaker 3: I cannot hide the fact that I am very, very
• 0:49
  Speaker 3: inspired today by what I saw in the second inaug
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: girl a dressed by President Trump.
• 0:57
  Speaker 5: And let me tell you, I'm very excited today.
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: This is like Chris morning, if I'm honest with you,
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: because the fact is the hands have now switched to
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: now the forty seventh present and then nearly two hundred
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: and fifty year history of America today gives me confidence
• 1:16
  Speaker 3: that we can keep this country going.
• 1:17
  Speaker 5: Does it give you confidence as well?
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: I sure hope it does. I sure hope it does.
• 1:23
  Speaker 3: But here's the line I want to focus on on
• 1:25
  Speaker 3: the address today. By President Trump. That makes me feel
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: really ambitious, even for this podcast.
• 1:35
  Speaker 5: Take a listen to this.
• 1:38
  Speaker 6: Ambition is the lifeblood of a great nation, and right
• 1:43
  Speaker 6: now our nation is more ambitious than any other.
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: There is no nation like our nation. Americans are explorers, builders, innovators, entrepreneurs,
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: and pioneers.
• 1:57
  Speaker 6: The spirit of the frontier is written into our heart.
• 2:00
  Speaker 6: The call of the next great adventure resounds from within
• 2:06
  Speaker 6: our souls. Our American ancestors turned a small group of
• 2:11
  Speaker 6: colonies on the edge of a vast continent into a
• 2:15
  Speaker 6: mighty republic of the most extraordinary citizens on Earth.
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: No one comes close. Americans pushed thousands of miles through
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: a rugged land of untamed wilderness. They crossed desert, scaled mountains,
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: braved untold dangers, won the wild West, ended slavery, rescued
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: millions from tyranny, lifted billions from poverty, harnessed electricity, split
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: the atom, launched mankind into the heavens, and put the
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: universe of human knowledge into the palm of the human hand.
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: If we work together, there is nothing we cannot do,
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: and no dream we cannot achieve.
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: So I ask you New York Times, what's so dark
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: about that? What's so dark about that statement alone? I
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: did not think his second inauge world dress was dark.
• 3:09
  Speaker 5: I thought it was hopeful.
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: I thought that was one of the most hopeful moments
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: in our country in quite a while.
• 3:18
  Speaker 5: And I pray that he's able to get his ambitions
• 3:27
  Speaker 5: for America done.
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: I pray that the forty seventh President of the United
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: States will be presiding over the two hundred and fiftieth
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: birthday of America almost a year from now, a year
• 3:39
  Speaker 3: and a few months from now, is able to truly
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: help Americans with their own ambitions and innovations as we
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: all push through what's going to be year two fifty nine,
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: what's going to be year two forty nine of this
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: great country known as America. I remember last year I
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: started a series of seventy and here we are, and
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: it was really the road to Inauguration Day twenty twenty five.
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: I want to play you that again a year later.
• 4:10
  Speaker 5: Tell me what you think. Did I get it right?
• 4:11
  Speaker 5: Was I on the money?
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: Email me at alex g Alex alex GNYC dot com.
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: It's January twentieth's which means this. It means a year
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: from today, someone will put their hand on the Bible
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: and take the oath of office for the President of
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: the United States. Yes, we are into campaign twenty twenty four.
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: We are into election season. Iowa was just last week. Obviously,
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: Trump romped the crowd and led it to a couple
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: of exits from the campaign from their own campaigns like
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: vivec and Asa Hutchinson. I mean, that's really breaking news. Anyway,
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: on the twenty of each month, I'd like to give
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: you a breakdown of where, what, when or why and
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: who is winning in this cycle and in the polling,
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: especially the polling as we get toward November. What is it,
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: November November fifth, twenty twenty four. But till then, we've
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: got a lot to go. We've got a few trial
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: case trials that Trump has to overcome. We have an
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: economy that needs to be turned around. We have a
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: lot of work to do. We got to see how
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: Congress acts during this twenty twenty four We've got to
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: see how the Fed acts during this election cycle. And
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: mainly we have to see if Joe Biden is still
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: the present by Midsummer twenty twenty four, and if if somebody,
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: you know, if he falls ill or the party somehow
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: does a switcheroo and has a Michelle Obama has Gavin
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: Newsom in position to run for president in twenty twenty four.
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: I if you you had a gun to my head
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: right now, I don't think Joe Biden will be anywhere
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: near the ballot on November fifth, twenty twenty four. But
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: I could be wrong. I could be wrong. Well, we'll
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: have to see. But until then, until all that shakes out,
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: we're going to just get you some polling. We're gonna
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: get some numbers each month leading up to January twenty
• 6:25
  Speaker 3: twenty twenty five, when, as I mentioned before, the just
• 6:32
  Speaker 3: a little bit before that, that's when the next president
• 6:35
  Speaker 3: or the current president will put his hand on the
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: Bible or her hand on the Bible and swear to
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: the oath of office at the United States Capitol. Yeah,
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: we're heading toward inauguration Day twenty twenty five. It'll be
• 6:50
  Speaker 3: here before we know it. But let me get you
• 6:52
  Speaker 3: a couple of polls right now and tell me what
• 6:55
  Speaker 3: you think. To lead off this campaign. In twenty twenty
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: four series on One Leg Up with Alex Garrett, Let's
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: quickly turn to two seventy to win dot Com which
• 7:06
  Speaker 3: is saying that as of right now, nationally, Trump has
• 7:10
  Speaker 3: a one percent lead over Biden one percent forty five
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: to forty four percent uh nationally. That was just taken
• 7:22
  Speaker 3: yesterday as a matter of fact. And what they do
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: is they take the average of the five polls including
• 7:31
  Speaker 3: you gov, Redfield and Wilton Morning Consult, CBS, you gov
• 7:38
  Speaker 3: and basically they're averaging that Trump, yes, has a bigger
• 7:42
  Speaker 3: lead than Biden. And number of these polls, number of
• 7:49
  Speaker 3: these poles, and of course, you know on this series,
• 7:55
  Speaker 3: maybe we have they even include McLaughlin. I like that
• 8:00
  Speaker 3: they even include McLaughlin. How about that? That says right now,
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: as of December twenty twenty three, Trump had a couple
• 8:09
  Speaker 3: of percentage point lead over Biden. So all signs are
• 8:17
  Speaker 3: that no matter the legal issues are the indictments of
• 8:19
  Speaker 3: the trouble, President Trump is ahead here, which is gonna
• 8:27
  Speaker 3: be a factor. We're gonna see how the DOJ, how
• 8:32
  Speaker 3: the president, the Biden minstrician handles it. And clearly we're
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: seeing that states want him off the ballot, including mainly
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: Colorado and Maine. Those are the two big ones so far.
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: New York delegates are trying to get them off the
• 8:45
  Speaker 3: primary ballot as well. But I'm gonna link to two
• 8:50
  Speaker 3: seventy two win dot com and you can find out
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: more about what they're doing in their run up to
• 8:56
  Speaker 3: January twentieth, twenty twenty five, and in the run up
• 8:59
  Speaker 3: to November fifth, twenty twenty fourth. Look, do I like
• 9:03
  Speaker 3: talking politics anymore? No? But the honest to god truth
• 9:06
  Speaker 3: is there is an election in play this year. We
• 9:09
  Speaker 3: all know it, twenty twenty four. But do you know
• 9:11
  Speaker 3: the polling? Do you know what's going on with that? No? Well,
• 9:14
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna bring it to you and each and every
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: month on the twentieth day of each month, because I
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: do think. I do think once again on our future is
• 9:26
  Speaker 3: at stake. I know it sounds cliche, but I believe
• 9:29
  Speaker 3: that whoever takes present next has to clean up this mess.
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: And the biggest mess they have to clean up, obviously,
• 9:36
  Speaker 3: is the border crisis. That's the first big test they
• 9:39
  Speaker 3: have to handle, and a lot of people I believe
• 9:44
  Speaker 3: think Trump can do it better. I mean, look, the
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: Biden administration tried to erase the border wall. Turns out
• 9:50
  Speaker 3: they had to go and build back some of that wall.
• 9:53
  Speaker 3: Didn't really help the migrant crisis much. But the point
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: is is, yes, the Biden administration had to keep sub
• 9:59
  Speaker 3: of that was poes in place that the Trump administration
• 10:03
  Speaker 3: left in and then another factor. Did you see what's
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: going on? And I hate to say it to kick
• 10:11
  Speaker 3: off this campaign trail, but this could be campaign series
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: and this election series on one lego. But this is unbelievable.
• 10:18
  Speaker 3: Did you see in China this week? Did you see
• 10:22
  Speaker 3: in China this week that they are testing another COVID
• 10:27
  Speaker 3: nineteen strain. Chinese researcher submitted a COVID virus sequence two
• 10:37
  Speaker 3: weeks before China made the data public. It's happening again.
• 10:41
  Speaker 3: Are we aware that the Chinese government is again holding
• 10:47
  Speaker 3: back on COVID virus information? Is it possible that another
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: Wuhanian leak can happen to disrupt this election cycle again?
• 11:00
  Speaker 3: I know it's only January twentieth, but guess what, I
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: have a bit of trauma from March twenty twenty and
• 11:06
  Speaker 3: the whole shutdown. Don't you wouldn't you want to know
• 11:10
  Speaker 3: if China was working on something like this again and
• 11:15
  Speaker 3: why are they? And why are they? The United States
• 11:21
  Speaker 3: National Institute of Health set in response to a House
• 11:24
  Speaker 3: and Energy Committee investigation that Chinese virologists lonely ran some
• 11:30
  Speaker 3: inde sequence on December. This is back in twenty nineteen.
• 11:35
  Speaker 3: This was the first train. How they held back that
• 11:39
  Speaker 3: information back then, but COVID twenty But they were doing
• 11:45
  Speaker 3: testing recently cloning This is the one I want to
• 11:55
  Speaker 3: tell you. Cloning COVID like virus to test on mice,
• 11:59
  Speaker 3: add acknowledge a spillover rate risk to humans. In a
• 12:08
  Speaker 3: report by research under a collaborative project between China and Mongolia,
• 12:12
  Speaker 3: scientists explained the virus is a strain of coronavirus, and
• 12:17
  Speaker 3: they clone the virus and they tested on mice. This
• 12:25
  Speaker 3: underscores a spillover risk of gxp twov into humans and
• 12:29
  Speaker 3: provide a unique model for undertecting the pathologic pathogenic mechanisms.
• 12:35
  Speaker 3: But the point is China is again testing again, like
• 12:39
  Speaker 3: four years ago, testing this, and I think we shall
• 12:44
  Speaker 3: be a little nervous. We should be a little worried
• 12:47
  Speaker 3: that they're coming up with these measles and these different
• 12:51
  Speaker 3: health outbreaks that could affect some governmental defcisions on what
• 12:56
  Speaker 3: to shut down, what to keep open. I mean, the
• 12:58
  Speaker 3: shutdown rhetoric is in play here. Again, sadly in this
• 13:02
  Speaker 3: election year, doesn't it feel like that? Doesn't it feel
• 13:05
  Speaker 3: like that to you? That's why a year from now
• 13:12
  Speaker 3: is so pivotal that I do believe the Democrats are
• 13:16
  Speaker 3: going to pull out all stops and the Republican is
• 13:18
  Speaker 3: just going to go along with it, saying, oh, well,
• 13:19
  Speaker 3: you know, we can't really rock the boat. And I
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: admire the work of Speaker Johnson here, but he's got
• 13:26
  Speaker 3: to remember it's an election year too. You've got to
• 13:30
  Speaker 3: make them tie border security funding to the A to
• 13:35
  Speaker 3: Ukraine and Israel. You've got to. You've got to be tough.
• 13:39
  Speaker 3: Even if you don't feel like you can't push them,
• 13:43
  Speaker 3: you got to. It'll look better for the party as
• 13:47
  Speaker 3: we are into twenty twenty four. But at the end
• 13:51
  Speaker 3: of the day, I think I do think the Georgia
• 13:56
  Speaker 3: case is going to make a big difference in this election.
• 13:59
  Speaker 3: I also happen to think that Trump will too. Trump
• 14:05
  Speaker 3: will make himself either look better or worse in this year.
• 14:11
  Speaker 3: And if you just talk to facts and talked about
• 14:14
  Speaker 3: how the Biden demonstration is failing at every corner, I mean, yes,
• 14:19
  Speaker 3: we're still here today, but the fact is our city
• 14:22
  Speaker 3: cannot handle the thousands of migrants that have come in
• 14:26
  Speaker 3: the city cannot handle a Biden versus Adams war right now.
• 14:30
  Speaker 3: That's not what the city needs. The city needs a
• 14:32
  Speaker 3: federal support. And you know what, if I'm Trump, I say,
• 14:35
  Speaker 3: or if I'm an Eddy candidate, I say, Hey, guess
• 14:38
  Speaker 3: what New York I see where you're going through. You're
• 14:41
  Speaker 3: the epicenter right now in this migrant crisis, and guess what.
• 14:45
  Speaker 3: Guess what We're going to be by your side. We
• 14:47
  Speaker 3: will not turn away on turn our back on Eric Adams.
• 14:51
  Speaker 3: We will not investigate your mayor when we are scrutinized.
• 14:55
  Speaker 3: If we are scrutinized by him, we will continue to
• 14:57
  Speaker 3: work with him. That's the message that these candidates need
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: to send to New York City that we are going
• 15:04
  Speaker 3: to work with Mayor Adams. The message we get from
• 15:06
  Speaker 3: the White House right now is, oh, you're gonna criticize us.
• 15:09
  Speaker 3: Let's go after him with the FBI. Let's see some
• 15:13
  Speaker 3: phones he here, Let's get some investigations going that we're
• 15:16
  Speaker 3: never done before. And whether you like Adams or not,
• 15:20
  Speaker 3: you have to believe that there's a bit of a
• 15:24
  Speaker 3: hunt's going on because he is calling out the White
• 15:26
  Speaker 3: House directly. Biden didn't even meet with Adams in September
• 15:33
  Speaker 3: during the UN General Assembly week that didn't happen, and
• 15:40
  Speaker 3: nor has any real help from the federal government happened
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: as well. So we could deal with what his relationship
• 15:46
  Speaker 3: is with Kathley Hokeel and the state's help or non help.
• 15:50
  Speaker 3: But if we're talking about twenty twenty four, we've got
• 15:53
  Speaker 3: to say what candidate can message properly to the city
• 15:57
  Speaker 3: of New York. Hey, I will work with you to
• 15:59
  Speaker 3: get at this migrant crisis under control and not turn
• 16:03
  Speaker 3: our back on New York City. We will not turn
• 16:05
  Speaker 3: New York City. Tell New York City to drop the dead.
• 16:09
  Speaker 3: That's the message that needs to be conveyed in the
• 16:12
  Speaker 3: local sense by this presidential election, and we'll see if
• 16:16
  Speaker 3: it gets done. We'll see if it gets done. But
• 16:21
  Speaker 3: again two seventy to win dot com, I want to
• 16:23
  Speaker 3: drop that. You could check the polls out and then
• 16:26
  Speaker 3: every month we'll come back with a little review. Maybe
• 16:28
  Speaker 3: get some polling experts on this show, the one leg
• 16:32
  Speaker 3: up with Alex Garrett podcast network, uh, and do more
• 16:37
  Speaker 3: as we had. As I say, this generation needs to
• 16:40
  Speaker 3: know before they go to the polls, what the deal is,
• 16:44
  Speaker 3: where the voting is, what's the the policy shaping up
• 16:49
  Speaker 3: to be from these candidates? And if if I'm buying running,
• 16:55
  Speaker 3: I can't promise to be the same old, same old.
• 16:58
  Speaker 3: It's got to be fix There's got to be a
• 17:01
  Speaker 3: lot of fixing that has to happen that I don't
• 17:04
  Speaker 3: think the biersation will do because they're worried about the
• 17:07
  Speaker 3: far left contingent voting against them. They're so worried about
• 17:14
  Speaker 3: votes that, yes, did you know that there was a
• 17:16
  Speaker 3: provision in this city to allow migrants to vote that
• 17:21
  Speaker 3: was rejected. That's how extreme the left is getting. And
• 17:27
  Speaker 3: in twenty twenty five, I personally cannot want a Democrat
• 17:33
  Speaker 3: to put his hand or her hand on that Bible
• 17:37
  Speaker 3: unless they are common sense, which Biden clearly has not
• 17:41
  Speaker 3: been during this whole crisis, during this whole inflation situation
• 17:47
  Speaker 3: we're going through, during this whole thing where gas prices
• 17:53
  Speaker 3: have gone up, I mean a lot of things have
• 17:55
  Speaker 3: gone up. Grocery prices alone have gone up in this administration.
• 18:02
  Speaker 3: So I believe to keep America on the right track
• 18:06
  Speaker 3: and put it back on the right track, I should
• 18:08
  Speaker 3: say twenty twenty four is crucial. That's why on this
• 18:12
  Speaker 3: day in twenty twenty five, hopefully the right person puts
• 18:20
  Speaker 3: their hand on that Bible at high noon. At high noon,
• 18:29
  Speaker 3: the President United States is now President Donald Trump once again,
• 18:33
  Speaker 3: and the sixtieth inauguration of the President of United States
• 18:37
  Speaker 3: gives me hope that we can have one leg.
• 18:41
  Speaker 5: Up on the world as we're supposed to.
• 18:45
  Speaker 3: God bless America and the next four years under President Trump.
