Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: We got a question for American Mamas. Dear Mamas, does
- 0:02Speaker 1: it give you hope that Ashley Judd and her stepdad
- 0:04Speaker 1: get along, even though they are so far apart politically? Well,
- 0:07Speaker 1: let's ask our American Mamas.
- 0:10Speaker 2: And joining us now, our American Mamas, Terry Nedeville and
- 0:24Speaker 2: Kimberly Burleson.
- 0:25Speaker 1: So Ashley Judd, uh, is the actress, um, So she's
- 0:32Speaker 1: very far to the left. She ran for Senate in
- 0:34Speaker 1: Tennessee as a Democrat. She's been at rallies denouncing Trump
- 0:39Speaker 1: and all this. Her stepdad is a Trump supporter. And
- 0:45Speaker 1: yet they live on the same farm in Tennessee. And
- 0:49Speaker 1: they were recently... You guys are showing me this video
- 0:51Speaker 1: where they were recently together and talking about their political differences.
- 0:56Speaker 1: I thought I'd play a clip from that. You guys
- 0:57Speaker 1: want to hear it? All right, here it is.
- 1:00Speaker 3: The brother said... My sister had breast cancer and I
- 1:02Speaker 3: didn't even know because we broke up after the election
- 1:05Speaker 3: in 2016. That we have managed not only to escape,
- 1:11Speaker 3: but defy.
- 1:12Speaker 4: Well, I've been determined that I was not going to
- 1:17Speaker 4: let political differences affect or separate me and you, or
- 1:26Speaker 4: me and you and my wife. I mean, the thought of...
- 1:30Speaker 4: Our political differences causing separation and changing our feelings for
- 1:36Speaker 4: each other is just absurd. My love for you and
- 1:38Speaker 4: Wynonna supersedes in Trump's, forgive my pun, in Trump's politics
- 1:48Speaker 4: all day long. I would never allow my political feelings
- 1:56Speaker 4: to change how I feel about this lady right here.
- 2:02Speaker 1: I hadn't noticed when I watched the video, all the birds,
- 2:06Speaker 1: but you hear them.
- 2:07Speaker 3: Oh, really?
- 2:07Speaker 2: In the clip.
- 2:08Speaker 4: You hear them in the clip.
- 2:09Speaker 3: Oh, that's funny.
- 2:10Speaker 1: But anyway, so what do you guys think about that conversation?
- 2:15Speaker 3: I love it.
- 2:16Speaker 5: I love that conversation, too. It's like Terry said, it
- 2:18Speaker 5: was a breath of fresh air because we have been
- 2:21Speaker 5: so divided. And to see someone, she's far left. She's
- 2:24Speaker 5: far left. She's far left. And he's MAGA. So to
- 2:28Speaker 5: see them sitting on the porch and talking about their
- 2:30Speaker 5: love for each other and that nothing will hurt that
- 2:34Speaker 5: relationship to me. It made me follow her. It made
- 2:38Speaker 5: me like her more so because I thought she is
- 2:40Speaker 5: loony boony. But this made me happy because it gave
- 2:44Speaker 5: me hope for some members of our own family, you know,
- 2:47Speaker 5: because I would like to come back with a couple
- 2:50Speaker 5: of people that we lost during all of this.
- 2:52Speaker 1: COVID lockdowns and stuff.
- 2:53Speaker 5: Yes. And so it shows.
- 2:55Speaker 6: Lost as in separated.
- 2:57Speaker 5: They're not gone. No, they're not gone. But we've, you know,
- 3:00Speaker 5: we've stopped talking, basically broke up. And so it shows
- 3:04Speaker 5: these two people who are so far from each other
- 3:07Speaker 5: stay together is the way we should all be operating.
- 3:11Speaker 5: We should not separate from each other because of political beliefs.
- 3:14Speaker 5: We should talk, have conversations, or not talk about certain things,
- 3:19Speaker 5: but stay together.
- 3:20Speaker 1: But this is an interesting conversation in and of itself because...
- 3:24Speaker 1: You have had leftist articles, news articles, telling people how
- 3:29Speaker 1: to avoid their family at Thanksgiving, how to write off
- 3:32Speaker 1: your MAGA. The left is writing how-to articles of how
- 3:36Speaker 1: to break up with your own family. You're not seeing
- 3:39Speaker 1: that on Fox News. Fox News, here's how to avoid
- 3:42Speaker 1: all your Democrat family members for now on.
- 3:44Speaker 6: And why? Why would they push that? Why would they
- 3:46Speaker 6: push to divide our country? You know, this is how
- 3:51Speaker 6: it was before COVID. before the escalator ride down, honestly.
- 3:55Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 3:56Speaker 6: Nobody knew what anybody, who they voted for, what they
- 3:59Speaker 6: believed politically speaking. Nobody cared. You enjoyed each other's company.
- 4:04Speaker 6: You enjoyed those things that you had in common. You
- 4:07Speaker 6: enjoyed knowing about their families. The political aspect of this
- 4:12Speaker 6: came in. And I'm telling you what, I now believe
- 4:15Speaker 6: the media has been the right hand of evil in
- 4:19Speaker 6: all of this. Because like you just said, They promote division.
- 4:23Speaker 6: They promote the bad of one side against the other.
- 4:27Speaker 6: It is so sad to me because the people that
- 4:30Speaker 6: I know and love who are Democrats, I know and
- 4:33Speaker 6: love them. And I have a friend in my mind
- 4:37Speaker 6: that did defriend me because I was sad over Charlie Kirk.
- 4:42Speaker 6: And when I tell you we were dear friends, I
- 4:45Speaker 6: still consider her a friend. But I'm telling you this.
- 4:49Speaker 6: If she needed me today, we haven't talked in years,
- 4:52Speaker 6: if she needed me today, I would be right there.
- 4:55Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that's... That's the way it's supposed to be.
- 4:57Speaker 1: That's the way it's supposed to be. But one of
- 4:59Speaker 1: the things is that for the left, they need government
- 5:04Speaker 1: to be your daddy.
- 5:05Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 5:06Speaker 1: That if you are still in a strong connection with
- 5:10Speaker 1: all of the members of your family, why do you
- 5:12Speaker 1: need government? If your family is your safety net, then
- 5:16Speaker 1: you don't need the government safety net of socialism.
- 5:18Speaker 6: What's so crazy is these same people that feel that
- 5:20Speaker 6: way were the hippies of the 70s who wanted to
- 5:22Speaker 6: stick it to the man. Now they are the man,
- 5:25Speaker 6: like Bernie Sanders. It is an upside-down world.
- 5:29Speaker 1: It really is.
- 5:30Speaker 6: I want us to get back to being one big
- 5:31Speaker 6: family like it used to be.
- 5:33Speaker 1: So you're going to go watch some Ashley Judd movies?
- 5:35Speaker 5: Yes, I will.
- 5:36Speaker 4: Yeah?
- 5:38Speaker 1: I can't think of one, but I'm.
- 5:39Speaker 6: Sure there's several great ones. I just love the fact
- 5:42Speaker 6: how you can just feel the love between them and
- 5:45Speaker 6: the conversation that was so needed. I hope everybody watches it.
