Speaker 1 (00:00):
The Michael Barry Show.
Speaker 2 (00:01):
We played part of this on Wednesday, so you may
recognize a little bit of it, but we decided for
this week's bonus podcast for your Saturday listening since it
was too long to play on the regular show. There
is President Trump's victory speech from earlier this week, and
it hit a lot of the right notes for me
(00:23):
at the right time. And so if you saw it already,
maybe give it another listen. And if you didn't, I
think it would be good to give this a listen.
You know, elections, like births and graduations and weddings and deaths, funerals,
they're a marking point, a pivot point. They're a point
(00:47):
in time. They give us an opportunity to kind of
start anew, to change direction. And I really think Trump
understands that concept. I think he he's sad not to
be running for president again, I do. I think he
recognizes that he will serve and then leave, and I
(01:07):
think he's he's grown to enjoy it. He's darn good
at it. I mean, who can forget the garbage truck
and the McDonald's French fries.
Speaker 3 (01:17):
I mean, it's just he's good.
Speaker 1 (01:19):
He's really, really good.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
And I think he's going to enjoy being a lame
duck president in the sense that he's going to do
what he wants to do and he's going to be
free to do the right thing. And very infrequently is
it that a person feels that free they could be.
(01:44):
Very infrequently do they and the people around them think
about retaining power instead of fixing problems. And I think
Trump is going in with the mindset of fixing problems.
Speaker 4 (01:56):
Thank you very much, will Well, I want to thank
you all very much.
Speaker 3 (02:09):
This is great. These are our friends. We have thousands
of friends in this incredible movement. This was a movement
like nobody's ever seen before. And frankly, this was I
believe the greatest political movement of all time. There's ever
(02:30):
been anything like this in this.
Speaker 1 (02:32):
Country and maybe beyond. And now it's going to.
Speaker 3 (02:37):
Reach a new level of importance because we're going to
help our country. Heal, We're going to help our country.
Speaker 5 (02:45):
Here.
Speaker 3 (02:45):
We have a country that needs help, and it needs
help very badly. We're going to fix our borders, We're
going to fix everything about our country. And we made
history for a reason tonight in the it is going
to be just that we overcame obstacles that nobody thought possible,
(03:06):
and it is now clear that we've achieved the most
incredible political they.
Speaker 1 (03:12):
Look, what happened? Is this crazy?
Speaker 3 (03:20):
But it's a political victory that our country has never
seen before, nothing like this. I want to thank the
American people for the extraordinary honor of being elected your
forty seventh president, and you're forty fifth president, and every citizen,
(03:42):
I will fight for you, for your family and your future.
Every single day I will be fighting for you, and
with every breath in my body, I will not rest
until we have delivered the strong, safe, and prosperous America
that our children deserve and that you deserve. This will
(04:03):
truly be the Golden Age of America. That's what we
have to.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
This is a magnificent.
Speaker 3 (04:13):
Victory for the American people that will allow us to
make America great again. Or and in addition to having
won the battleground states of North Carolina, I love these places, Georgia, Pennsylvania,
(04:34):
and Wisconsin, we are now winning in Michigan, Arizona, Nevada,
and Alaska, which would result in US carrying at least
three hundred and fifteen electoral votes. But that but it's
(04:55):
much easier doing what the networks did or whoever called it,
because there was no other path. There was no other
path to victory. We also have won the popular vote.
That was great, powerful, thank you, thank you very much.
(05:31):
And now winning the popular vote was very nice, very nice.
I will tell you. It's a great, a great feeling
of love. We have a great feeling of love in
this very large room with unbelievable people standing by my side.
These people have been incredible, They've made the journey with me,
and we're going to make you very happy. We're going
(05:54):
to make you very proud of your vote. I hope
that you're going to be looking back someday and say
that was one of the truly important moments of my
life when I voted for this group of people. Beyond
the president, this group of great people America has given
(06:15):
us an unprecedented and powerful mandate. We have taken back
control of the Senate. Wow, that's good. Under Senate races
in Montana, Nevada, Texas, Ohio, Michigan, Wisconsin, the great Commonwealth
(06:42):
of Pennsylvania, we're all won by the Magma movement. They
helped so much. And of those cases, every.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
One of them.
Speaker 3 (06:56):
We worked with the senators. They were tough races, and
I mean the number of victories in the Senate was
absolutely incredible.
Speaker 1 (07:04):
And we did tell rallies.
Speaker 3 (07:06):
We did tell rallies with each one of them, and
sometimes we did two or three, and it was amazing
to look at all of those victories. Nobody expected that, nobody,
So I just wanted to thank you very much for that.
And we have you have some great senators and some
great new senators, and it also looks like we'll be
keeping control of the House of Representative. And I want
(07:35):
to thank Mike Johnson. I think he's doing a terrific job,
terrific job. I want to also thank my beautiful wife,
Milania first lady.
Speaker 1 (07:56):
Who has the number one best.
Speaker 3 (07:58):
Selling book in the contract you believe that. Oh, Now,
she's done a great job, works very hard, works very
hard to help people. So I just want to thank her.
But I want to thank my whole family, my amazing children,
(08:22):
and they are amazing children. Now we all think our children.
Everybody here thinks that children are amazing. But that's a
good thing when you think they are. But don Eric, Ivanka,
Tiffany Baron, Laura, Jared Kimberly, Michael, thank you all, what
I help, what I did. My father in law, Victor
(08:50):

Speaker 1 (08:56):
We miss Amalia.
Speaker 3 (08:57):
Don't we Huh. She would be very happy right now
standing on this stage. Should be so proud. She was
a great woman. That one beautiful inside and out. She
was a great woman. I want to be the first
to congratulate or great now I can say Vice President
Elect of the United States J. B. B and his
(09:34):
absolutely remarkable and beautiful wife Ushabez. And he is a
feisty guy, isn't he. You know I've said, go into
the enemy camp, and you know the enemy camp is
certain networks, and a lot of people don't like to Sure,
(09:55):
do I have to do that? He just goes, Okay,
which one CNA and MSDNC. He'll say, all right, thank
you very much. He actually explained he's like the only
guy I've ever said he really looks forward to it.
And then he just goes, in an absolutely obliterate step,
say a couple of words. Wow.
Speaker 6 (10:34):
Well, mister President, I appreciate you allowing me to join
you on this incredible journey. I thank you for the
trust that you have placed in me. And I think
that we just witnessed the greatest political comeback in the
history of the United States of America. And under President
(10:56):
Trump's leadership, We're never going to stop fighting for you,
your dreams, for the future of your children. And after
the greatest political comeback in American history, We're going to
leave the greatest economic come back in American history under
Donald Trump's leadership.
Speaker 3 (11:20):
Thank you very much. He's He's turned out to be
a good choice. I took a little heat at the beginning,
but he was I knew. I knew the brain was
a good one, about as good as it gets. And
we love the family, and we're going to have a
great four years and we're going to turn our country around,
(11:42):
make it something very special. It lost, that lost, that
little it lost, that little uh, that little thing called special.
We have to make it.
Speaker 6 (11:53):
So.
Speaker 3 (11:54):
We're going to make this so great. It's gonna it's
the greatest country and potentially the greatest country in the
world by far, and right now we're going to just
work very hard to get all of that back. We're
going to make it the best it's ever been. We
can do that. We just if we had to wait longer.
I don't know. It was going bad, and it was
going bad fast. We're gonna have to seal up those borders,
(12:16):
and we're gonna have to let people come into our country.
We want people to come back in, but we have
to we have to let them come back in, but
they have to come in legally. They have to come
in legally. Let me also express my tremendous appreciation for

Susie likes to stay sort of in the back. Let
me tell you the iceband, we call it the Iceman

(13:02):
stay in the background.
Speaker 1 (13:03):
She's not in the background.
Speaker 5 (13:04):
Who they say, this wasn't expected. But I just want
to thank obviously President Trump for this journey. It was
a great one and he's a hell of a candidate
and he's going to be a hell of a great
forty seventh president. And this team that we had the
best team, and of course even my boss Susie wills
(13:25):

They've been.
Speaker 3 (13:39):
They're great. Everybody up here is great. Everybody up here
is very special. But the Trump, Yo, who did you say? Oh,
let me tell you we have a new star. A
star is born Eylon. No, he is now. He's an
(14:01):
amazing guy. We were sitting together tonight. You know, he
spent two weeks in Philadelphia and different parts of Pennsylvania, campaginting.
You know, he sent the rocket up two weeks ago.
And I saw that rocket. I saw it coming down.
I saw it. It was when it left, it was beautiful,
shiny white. When it came down, it didn't look so pretty.
(14:23):
It was going ten thousand miles an hour, and I
was burning like hell. I said, what happened to your
paint job? He said, We've never made a paint that
could we stay in that kind of heat. But I
saw it come down and turn around, and it was,
you know, it's like twenty two stories so by the way,
it looks a little smaller than that, but it's big.
And it came down and down, and you saw that
(14:45):
fire burning. And I'm saying, only Elon could do this.
It must be an Eline and I tell the story.
I told it last night. I had a man on
the phone. I had the screen muted, no sound. I
was talking to very important man. Happen is to be here,
and that very important guy one of the most important people.
And I would say the country actually, but you know,
(15:09):
I was president and now it looks like I was
going to be maybe president again, so I figured I
could ask him to hold. So I asked him to hold,
and because especially because you're going to be president again,
they hold. So I took the phone down and I'm
looking to screen. I'm seeing this crazy thing that's going
around and coming down. It looks like, I said, a
crash into the gantry. And I said, oh no, And
(15:32):
I said, do me if you might holding for a
couple of them. I want to see this. I thought
it was a space age movie or something. I put
the phone down, but I didn't pick it up for
forty five minutes, and he was holding. But this spaceship
came down and I saw those engines firing and it
looked like it was over. It was going to smash,
and then I saw the fire pour out from the
(15:55):
left side and I put it straight and it came down.
So gently and then it wrapped those arms around it
and it held it and just like you hold your
maybe at night, your little baby. And it was a
beautiful thing to see. And I called Elan. I said, Elon,
was that you? He said, yes, it was. I said,
(16:17):
who else can do that? Can Russia do it? No?
Can China do it? No? Can the United States do it?
Other than you know, nobody can do that. I said,
that's why I love you, Elon. That's great. And you
know when we had the tragic Hurricane Helene and it
hit a particular hit North Carolina, they were really devast
(16:39):
at the water. This was a big water, as big
as we've ever seen water hurricane. It built lakes out
of nothing. Feels became lakes and the danger was unbelievable.
And the people from North Carolina came to me and
they said, would it be possible, at all possible for
you to speak to Elon Musk. We need starlink. I said,
(16:59):
what's darlink. It's a form of communication. So I called
Elon and I'll tell you what he had. And it
was very dangerous. People would die, they had no communication.
All the wires were down. I called Elon Musk I said, Elon,
you have something called starlink. Is that right? Yes? I do.
What the hell is it? He said, it's a communication system.
That's very good. I said, Elon, they need it really
(17:23):
really badly in North Carolina. Can you get it? He
had that there so fast, it was incredible, so and
it was great. It saved a lot of lives. He
saved a lot of lives. But he's the characters, especial
guys are super genius. We have to protect our geniuses.
We don't have that many of them. We have to
protect our super geniuses. I want to thank some of
(17:44):
the guys. You know we have up here today. The
US Open champion, he's fantastic. Over slightly longer than me.
It's a little bit longer than me, just a little bit.

have a Mandana White who has done some job.
Speaker 1 (18:41):
He's that tough guy.
Speaker 3 (18:48):
So Dana started UFC and it came to me, do
you mind if I used your Nobody wanted to give
him a rinks because they said it's a rough sport,
a little rough, and I helped him out a little bit,
and I went and I said, this is the roughest
sport I've ever seen. But I began to like it,
and he loved it. And nobody's done a better job
(19:10):
in sports. And you know, he's a very motivational kind
of a guy. What he does. He gets these fighters
and they really go at it, and it's become one
of the most successful sports enterprises anywhere at any time.
Doing so well. I'd like to ask any just to
say a couple of words because people love to hear
from him.
Speaker 7 (19:29):
Of nobody deserves us more than him, and nobody deserves
us more than his family does. This is what happens
when the machine comes after you. What you've seen over
the last several years, this is what it looks like.
(19:50):
Couldn't stop him. He keeps going forward. He doesn't quit.
He's the most resilient, hard working man I've ever met
in my life. His family are incredible people.
Speaker 1 (19:58):
This is calm.
Speaker 7 (19:59):
A lady and gentlemen. He deserves this, They deserve it.
As a family. I want to thank some people real quick.
I want to thank the no Boys, Aiden Ross Uh,
Theo Vaughan, Bossom with the boys and laugh, but not
least the mighty and powerful Joe Rogan, and thank you America,
(20:22):
Thank you have a good night.
Speaker 3 (20:29):
That is a piece of work. Now he's an amazing
He's really an amazing guy. But most of all, I
want to thank the millions of hard working Americans across
the nation who have always been the heart and soul
of this really great movement. We've been through so much
together and today you showed up in record numbers to
deliver a victory like really, I'd probably like no other.
(20:52):
This was something, This was something special. And we're gonna
We're gonna pay you back. We're gonna do the best
job we're gonna We're going to turn it around. It's
got to be turned around. It's got to be turned
around fast.
Speaker 1 (21:04):
And we're going to turn it around.
Speaker 3 (21:06):
We're gonna do it in every way, with so many ways,
but we're gonna do it in every way. This will
forever be remembered as the day the American people regained
control of their country. So I just want to say
that on behalf of this great group of people. These
(21:26):
are hard working people, These are fantastic people. And we
could add a few names like Robert F. Kennedy Junior.
And he's going to help make America healthy again. And
(21:55):
now he's a great guy and he really means that
he wants to do some things, and we're going to
let him go to it. I just said, but Bobby,
leave the oil to me. We have more liquid gold,
oil and gas. We have more liquid gold than any
country in the world, more than Saudi Arabia, we have
more than Russia. Bobby, stay away from the liquid gold.
(22:17):
Other than that, go have a good time, Bobby. We're
going to be paying down debt, We're going to be
reducing taxes. We can do things that nobody else can do.
Nobody else is going to be able to do it.
China doesn't have what we have. Nobody has what we have,
But we have the greatest people. Also. Maybe that's the
most important thing this campaign. This campaign has been so
(22:42):
historic in so many ways. We've built the biggest, the broadest,
the most unified coalition. They've never seen anything like it.
In all of American history. They've never seen any young
and old, men and women, rural and urban, and we
had them all helping us tonight. When you think, I mean,
I was looking at it. I was watching it. They
(23:02):
had some great analysis of the people that voted for us.
Nobody's ever seen anything like that. It came from They
came from all corners, Union, non Union, African American, Hispanic American,
Asian American, Arab, American, Muslim, American. We had everybody, and
it was beautiful. It was a historic realignment, uniting citizens
(23:28):
of all backgrounds around a common core of common sense.
You know, we're the Party of common sense. We want
to have borders, we want to have security, we want
to have things be good safe, We want great education,
want a strong and powerful military, and ideally we don't
have to use it. You know, we had no wars.
(23:49):
Four years, we had no wars except we defeated ISIS.
We defeated ISIS in record time, but we had no wars.
They said he will start a war. I'm not going
to start working to stop wars. But this is also
a massive victory for democracy and for freedom. Together, we're
going to unlock America's glorious yesterday, We're going to achieve
(24:12):
the most incredible future for our people. Yesterday, as I
stood at my last stop on the campaign, till I'll
never be doing a rally again, can you believe it.
I think we've done nine hundred rallies approximately from the canoe.
Imagine nine hundred, nine hundred and one.
Speaker 1 (24:33):
Something, a lot of rallies.
Speaker 3 (24:36):
And it was sad. Everybody was said many people. I said,
this is our last rally. But now we're going onto
something that's far more important because the rallies were used
for us to be put in this position where we
can really help our country. That's what we're going to do.
We're going to make our country better than it ever
has been. And I said that many people have told
(25:00):
me that God spared my life for a reason, and
that reason was to save our country and to restore
America to greatness. And now we are going to fulfill
that mission. Together. We're going to fulfill that mission. The
(25:22):
task before us will not be easy, but I will
bring every ounce of energy, spirit and fight that I
have in my soul to the job that you've entrusted
to me. This is a great job. There's no job
like this. This is the most important job in the world,
(25:42):
just as I did it my first term. We had
a great first term, a great, great first term. I
will govern by a simple motto. Promises made, Promises kept.
We're going to keep our promises. Nothing will stop me
from keeping my word.
Speaker 1 (25:59):
To you, you the people.
Speaker 3 (26:00):
We will make America safe, strong, prosperous, powerful and free again.
And I'm asking every citizen all across our land to
join me in this noble and righteous endeavor. That's what
it is. It's time to put the divisions of the
past four years behind us. It's time to unite, and
(26:20):
we're going to try. We're going to try. We have
to try, and it's going to happen. Success will bring
us together. I've seen that. I've seen that. I saw
that in the first term, when we became more and
more successful, people started coming together. Success is going to
bring us together, and we are going to start by
(26:43):
all putting America first. We have to put our country
first for at least a period of time. We have
to fix it.
Speaker 1 (26:49):
Because together we can truly.
Speaker 3 (26:51):
Make America great again for all Americans. So I want
to just tell you what a great honor this is.
I want to thank you. I will not let you down.
America's future will be bigger, better, bolder, richer, safer and
stronger than it has ever been before. God bless you,
and God bless America. Thank you.
