- 0:00Speaker 1: Charge into summer with Twoey.
- 0:02Speaker 2: I'm secure your holiday today with deals for families and
- 0:05Speaker 2: adults flying from your local airport.
- 0:07Speaker 3: Holiday sorted two.
- 0:09Speaker 1: We decency is apply.
- 0:11Speaker 2: I got to ask you, what is your hope for
- 0:13Speaker 2: America at a time such as this. My hope for America,
- 0:18Speaker 2: and my hope for America is what it's always been.
- 0:20Speaker 2: I think it's the hope I hope we all share.
- 0:22Speaker 2: We want it to continue to be the place where
- 0:24Speaker 2: anyone from anywhere can achieve anything. Where you're not limited
- 0:27Speaker 2: by the circumstances of your birth, by the color of
- 0:29Speaker 2: your skin, by your ethnicity. But frankly, it's a place
- 0:32Speaker 2: where you are able to overcome challenges and achieve your
- 0:34Speaker 2: full potential. I think that should be the goal of
- 0:36Speaker 2: every country in the world. But I think in the
- 0:38Speaker 2: US we're not perfect. Our history is not one of perfection,
- 0:41Speaker 2: but it's still better than anybody else's history. Now, ours
- 0:43Speaker 2: is a story of perpetual improvement. Each generation has left
- 0:46Speaker 2: the next generation of Americans freer, more prosperous, safer, and
- 0:50Speaker 2: that is our goal as well. And as we come
- 0:52Speaker 2: upon this two hundred and fifty year anniversary, I think
- 0:54Speaker 2: we have a lot to learn and be proud of
- 0:55Speaker 2: in our history. It is one of perpetual and continuous improvement,
- 0:59Speaker 2: where each generation has done its part to bring us
- 1:01Speaker 2: closer to fulfilling the vision that the founders of this
- 1:03Speaker 2: country had upon its founding.
- 1:05Speaker 4: The governor at the time a guy named Charlie Christ
- 1:07Speaker 4: down in Florida when I held a debate on my
- 1:11Speaker 4: sports talk show at Frank's Ocean Club on the beach
- 1:15Speaker 4: in Fort Lauderdale, and a young Marco Rubio, whose wife,
- 1:18Speaker 4: mind you, was a Miami dophin cheerleader. He loves Miami sports,
- 1:23Speaker 4: he loves to heat, came on my show. We had
- 1:26Speaker 4: a three way debate, live on the air. I was
- 1:29Speaker 4: already doing politics. This was twenty ten, though, and he
- 1:32Speaker 4: went on to win, of course. And then you guys
- 1:35Speaker 4: remember twenty eleven Osama bin Laden gets taken out by
- 1:43Speaker 4: our buddy. He's been on this show many many times.
- 1:46Speaker 4: O'Neill and Marco Rubio at the time, a senator from
- 1:50Speaker 4: the state of Florida. I played it on this show.
- 1:53Speaker 4: He called in, called into my sports talk show, wasn't
- 1:56Speaker 4: even booked, just to say, hey, sid, I got good news.
- 2:01Speaker 4: We got Bin Laden. Remember I played that tape home
- 2:04Speaker 4: about amazing that was.
- 2:06Speaker 3: I do remember that.
- 2:07Speaker 4: Well, yeah, so he man, he's got to be president next.
- 2:11Speaker 4: That's it. Get rid of this JD Vance.
- 2:13Speaker 3: He's a clown, not looking very presidential.
- 2:16Speaker 4: So he does. He looks it, he sounds it. You know,
- 2:18Speaker 4: Trump is all about Rubio these days. I never see
- 2:21Speaker 4: Trump advance, never or talking about him. He's proud, agreed,
- 2:24Speaker 4: mister fraud great everywhere with Rubio. Rubio needs to be
- 2:28Speaker 4: the next president. But we'll ask my young friend, looking
- 2:32Speaker 4: handsome as always this morning in his dorm room at
- 2:35Speaker 4: Auburn University with three American flags behind him, a regular
- 2:40Speaker 4: here on our show on WABC, the Great Brylan Hollyhead,
- 2:44Speaker 4: and I would imagine Bilin you will agree Rubio needs
- 2:47Speaker 4: to be on next president after Donald Trump. And you
- 2:50Speaker 4: must have loved what he said there.
- 2:53Speaker 3: Well said good morning to your happy Thursday. You took
- 2:56Speaker 3: me back to my friends. It was fun to start
- 2:57Speaker 3: the morning with you. You know, I'll definitely say I agree.
- 3:00Speaker 3: I think that what a crazy novel concept to have
- 3:03Speaker 3: a future presidential contender painting a picture of hope, not
- 3:07Speaker 3: painting a doom and glue message, not telling us that
- 3:09Speaker 3: we should feel guilty for America. But coming behind the
- 3:12Speaker 3: podium and off the cuff, just laying out this case
- 3:15Speaker 3: for America, and it's two hundred and fifty a year,
- 3:17Speaker 3: then we should be grateful for the country we have.
- 3:20Speaker 3: Everywhere imagination looks around, whether it's in the classroom, it's
- 3:22Speaker 3: on social media and politics, we're told about how bad
- 3:25Speaker 3: America is, how guilty we should feel for our past
- 3:28Speaker 3: and our ancestors. And Marco just let it out, Hey, guys,
- 3:31Speaker 3: like we should actually be proud. We have a lot
- 3:33Speaker 3: to be proud of and we worked for it. We're
- 3:35Speaker 3: not perfect, We've never claimed to be. I think that's
- 3:37Speaker 3: a winning message, and I think that's certainly a message
- 3:40Speaker 3: that would win in twenty eight because gen Z wants hope.
- 3:42Speaker 3: We just want some American exceptionalism back. And if President
- 3:46Speaker 3: Trump ran on make America talk again, Marco could run
- 3:49Speaker 3: on making America proud again.
- 3:50Speaker 4: You know what, I made the choke a couple of
- 3:52Speaker 4: times on the show. It's a Greg Kelly favorite that
- 3:55Speaker 4: the Iran war has hit the Nancy Got three stage,
- 3:58Speaker 4: which is an unfortunate Joe, because God bless Nancy Got three.
- 4:02Speaker 4: That poor beautiful lady. She's been dead somewhere for a
- 4:05Speaker 4: long time. But it got to the point where America
- 4:08Speaker 4: stopped caring. Unfortunately for Savannah, they just did. And I
- 4:12Speaker 4: think we're there with Iran. You know, I want us
- 4:14Speaker 4: to win, and I'm all for what President Trump did,
- 4:17Speaker 4: but you know, you're into two months now, and every
- 4:20Speaker 4: day they're looking at this proposal, we're looking at that proposal,
- 4:24Speaker 4: we're extending this. We're not going to do this. We
- 4:27Speaker 4: are going to do that. And I love President Trump.
- 4:30Speaker 4: I adore him. Just yesterday was telling Bruce Blakeman how
- 4:33Speaker 4: great I am in a meeting they had in the
- 4:35Speaker 4: Oval Office. So I don't criticize the President almost never, okay,
- 4:40Speaker 4: But I believe America has had just about enough of
- 4:44Speaker 4: the Iran conversation. So for America, if I'm right, If
- 4:47Speaker 4: I'm right, and America feels that way, kids like you
- 4:51Speaker 4: in college, you really got to be over this, yes
- 4:56Speaker 4: or no? Yeah?
- 4:57Speaker 3: Oh easily. Guess. I think the reason we elected pres
- 5:00Speaker 3: and trumpet because we wanted somebody we could trust and
- 5:02Speaker 3: have certainty in. And there's been a little bit of
- 5:04Speaker 3: uncertainty lately. And I'm not blaming it on the president,
- 5:06Speaker 3: it's the situation in the Middle East, but it's about
- 5:08Speaker 3: time to wrap things up and bring our boys home
- 5:11Speaker 3: and you know, make sure that we're not on the
- 5:13Speaker 3: front lines of the proxy war, were the front lines
- 5:15Speaker 3: of the potential to be drafted to go to the
- 5:17Speaker 3: Middle East. It's kind of like the limbo that our
- 5:19Speaker 3: generation is in. Besides paying the high gas taxes by
- 5:22Speaker 3: the plant, seeing the horrible pictures that are coming out
- 5:25Speaker 3: of the Middle East that are like frightening on social media,
- 5:27Speaker 3: there's also that fear of if something were to escalate, Hey,
- 5:30Speaker 3: we're the first ones to be sent over there, and
- 5:32Speaker 3: that's not necessarily the best way to convince young people
- 5:35Speaker 3: to also come out and vote for us in November.
- 5:37Speaker 3: So think if we clean this up, if we proved
- 5:39Speaker 3: we were able to wipe off the terrace, we're able
- 5:41Speaker 3: to bring freedom from Middle East, We're able to bring
- 5:43Speaker 3: down gas prices, We're able to make America energy independent.
- 5:46Speaker 3: That's when the President can come to college campuses and
- 5:48Speaker 3: the fall and say, I told you it would be short.
- 5:50Speaker 3: It was short. We're out and here's where prices are down.
- 5:53Speaker 3: But he's got to do it quick. There's a window
- 5:55Speaker 3: here where he has a few more weeks to finish
- 5:58Speaker 3: all this up and bring those prices down, because at
- 6:00Speaker 3: some point he's got to look at gen Z and said,
- 6:02Speaker 3: I told you costs will be easier than they were
- 6:04Speaker 3: under Biden. Here's the proof of that. Because we can't
- 6:07Speaker 3: do what Biden did. Biden said, you know, he dug
- 6:09Speaker 3: his head in the sand and he said, what is inflation?
- 6:11Speaker 3: What do you mean gas prices are high? You're crazy.
- 6:13Speaker 3: It's all on her head. No, no, no, said you know,
- 6:15Speaker 3: prices are high. Gen Z knows what they're seeing. They're
- 6:17Speaker 3: not gonna, you know, not believe their lying eyes. They
- 6:19Speaker 3: need a president to look at them and say, I'm
- 6:21Speaker 3: not going to sugar credit. Prices are high, but here's
- 6:23Speaker 3: my plan to bring them down. And he actually has
- 6:25Speaker 3: to do it. He has a laundry list of promises
- 6:27Speaker 3: he's kept, keep this one and'll earn our votes.
- 6:31Speaker 4: Yeah. I couldn't agree more. I have not arguments, necessarily,
- 6:34Speaker 4: but I have a lot of guests, a lot that
- 6:36Speaker 4: come on and say he's gonna win, will be fine,
- 6:39Speaker 4: and I go, yeah, but win, no, no, no, it's
- 6:42Speaker 4: not that easy. If he wins in August, it's too late.
- 6:46Speaker 4: If he wins in July, it's too late. I understand
- 6:50Speaker 4: every day now in this world is like six months.
- 6:53Speaker 4: I get it. News changes all the time. But I
- 6:56Speaker 4: can tell you talking to Trump supporters like you nineteen
- 7:00Speaker 4: years old, well my last guest JOBNINGO who's seventy two,
- 7:04Speaker 4: they are losing patience. I mean, don't we gain it overnight.
- 7:08Speaker 4: So it's not as easy as Brian kill Meat and
- 7:11Speaker 4: others when we win. No, if we are going to win,
- 7:14Speaker 4: and I'm not sure we have, but I believe President
- 7:16Speaker 4: Trump it needs to happen soon. You're right, there's a
- 7:20Speaker 4: window on this. We cannot just wait and wait and
- 7:23Speaker 4: wait till the President says, hey, we want it will
- 7:27Speaker 4: kill us in November.
- 7:29Speaker 3: But I think the big thought process here, the perspective
- 7:33Speaker 3: our party should I have. I'll show this the President's teams.
- 7:35Speaker 3: Susie Wilds is aware of this, that we need to
- 7:37Speaker 3: act like we're not entitled to the youth vote. We
- 7:40Speaker 3: need to earn it. The Dems had a monopoly on
- 7:42Speaker 3: my generations vote for decades, basically from Bill Clinton until
- 7:47Speaker 3: twenty twenty four. They owned the youth vote because they
- 7:50Speaker 3: walked in and act like they were entitled to it
- 7:52Speaker 3: every cycle and that was their acus heal. That's the
- 7:54Speaker 3: reason they lost it because they didn't earn it. They
- 7:57Speaker 3: walked in, they ignored us, They weighed free things and
- 7:59Speaker 3: emotions to run face and expected that should just fall online.
- 8:02Speaker 3: About twenty twenty four, thankfully we smelled the roses. We
- 8:04Speaker 3: woke up. We finally said, those empty promises have never
- 8:07Speaker 3: been fulfilled. The Dems have, you know, cheated us, They've
- 8:10Speaker 3: lied to us, they've stilled from us. We're not going
- 8:11Speaker 3: to trust them anymore. And we trusted President Trump. But
- 8:14Speaker 3: in the in the midterms, the GOP has a chance
- 8:17Speaker 3: to keep gen Z and our big ten of a
- 8:18Speaker 3: party for generations to come. We just can't walk in
- 8:21Speaker 3: like we're entitled. We have to earn every single vote.
- 8:23Speaker 3: And that means going to the campuses. That means the
- 8:25Speaker 3: president does what I do, speaking on campuses and laying
- 8:27Speaker 3: out that laundry list, earning it, not acting like we're
- 8:30Speaker 3: enttitled too. You know, that's how that works it.
- 8:31Speaker 4: And Brian len I guess, on a positive note for
- 8:34Speaker 4: the President, he had a big night in Indiana a
- 8:37Speaker 4: couple of nights ago. All those GOP and cumbents. They
- 8:41Speaker 4: all lost, and all of them, I think every single
- 8:44Speaker 4: one of them was on the opposite side of the
- 8:46Speaker 4: redistricting issue with President Trump. They all paid the price.
- 8:50Speaker 4: For what it's worth. All five people that President Trump
- 8:54Speaker 4: endorsed in Indiana got the win. That doesn't necessarily mean,
- 8:58Speaker 4: you know, we also endorsed, for example, my guy in
- 9:02Speaker 4: Jersey who got his ass kicked by Mikey Mohammad, Cheryl,
- 9:05Speaker 4: you know Jack generally. So it doesn't mean that wherever
- 9:07Speaker 4: you go is President Trump his people are going to win.
- 9:10Speaker 4: But certainly a couple of nights ago in Indiana, that
- 9:12Speaker 4: was a great night for President Trump.
- 9:15Speaker 3: It was, and I love to see the black pillars
- 9:17Speaker 3: on social media come and act like the President's endorsements
- 9:20Speaker 3: just meetingless at this point, and then he can flex
- 9:22Speaker 3: his muscle on one night wipe out you know what,
- 9:24Speaker 3: half the Indiana Senate and like these minor races because
- 9:28Speaker 3: they were important. People are calling this a purge, said, honestly,
- 9:31Speaker 3: what it is is accountability. We need more of it
- 9:33Speaker 3: across the country. My generation has zero tolerance for rhinos.
- 9:36Speaker 3: I've spoken to you about this before, but I've spent
- 9:38Speaker 3: the past few months being on the campaign trail making
- 9:41Speaker 3: sure that in these primaries we're kicking out Rhinos across
- 9:44Speaker 3: this country because honestly, you know this said better than
- 9:46Speaker 3: anybody with Republicans like we have, who needs Democrats? All
- 9:50Speaker 3: we do week week is fight our own side every
- 9:52Speaker 3: time we try to make some accomplishment. Who were the
- 9:54Speaker 3: people stopping us, these so called Republicans who really govern
- 9:58Speaker 3: more like woke liberals. And so if we kick them out,
- 10:00Speaker 3: these same handful of people that literally lost their jobs
- 10:04Speaker 3: because they wanted to protect two Democrat House seats, I
- 10:07Speaker 3: wish them the best of luck as they pack into retirement.
- 10:09Speaker 3: And I messaged to any other rhino was listening to
- 10:11Speaker 3: sit in friends this morning, go ahead and pack your
- 10:13Speaker 3: bags that we're coming for you because they have a
- 10:15Speaker 3: proven track record and I expect you to have a smooth,
- 10:18Speaker 3: graceful light.
- 10:18Speaker 4: So before we kick you out, ahha, Brilan hollyhand. So
- 10:21Speaker 4: why we love this kid nineteen years old, brilliant does
