Who Will Cave First?

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Six seven two six six sixty eight sixty eight is
the number Maggie in Amesbury. Thanks for holding Maggie, and.

Speaker 2 (00:10):
Welcome morning, Jeff.

Speaker 1 (00:12):
Hi Maggie.

Speaker 2 (00:13):
I don't know if anyone has said this, but I
am so frustrated with Congress on both sides of the aisle.
I mean, Trump is only one person, and I think
he's doing a great job, but we should never year
after year we come to this budget crisis. Sometimes it's
the Republicans, sometimes it's the Democrats. They have the power
in their hands to make the changes we need. They're

(00:35):
not doing their job. You know. I mean, healthcare so expensive,
fix it, put the legislation in now. It's the perfect
time to do immigration reform, you know. Fix make the
tax code different, make it easier, promote private jobs. You
know what I'm saying. I feel like there's a failure
on all sides, and I'm just sick of the finger pointing,

(00:58):
the grand standing job. It's not that hid. I want
to fire all of them, to be honest with you,
and let's you know, because I just feel like Trump
and the administration they're the only ones fighting for us
in Congress. I'm just tired of all of them. I mean,
am I wrong? I just feel like they have the
power to put the legislation in place, and they're losing

(01:20):
these opportunities to substantially fix the problems in our country.
Healthcare should never be so expensive. The reason it's so
expensive is because we over medicate, we overtest, we overvaccinate.
I mean, let's be real, let's look at these issues
and put the proper things in place. And they could
do this in a matter of years if they did

(01:41):
their job.

Speaker 3 (01:43):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (01:44):
Sorry, no, no, Maggie, no, no, please don't apologize this
and out standing call and you're making absolutely superb points.
Superb No. Look, this is the problem with the both
the Republicans and the Democrats. They're the uniparty in the end,
they're controlled by the donors, they're controlled by lobbyists, and

(02:05):
they're controlled by special interests. And so you know you
mentioned healthcare, Well they're all in the pocket of big Pharma,
just to give an obvious example, or the health insurance companies.
So they don't care that healthcare keeps getting more and
more and more expensive for people like you and me.
They don't care. And it's not just that they pay

(02:28):
for their campaigns and they get them re elected. It's
that they put their spouses or family members on these
boards and they make millions and I mean millions of dollars.
So you go to Washington to get rich. That's why
you go to Washington. That's why Trump says, I've never

(02:49):
seen a bigger bunch of frauds and grifters in my
entire life. These are not people who how do I
say this, You have very talented people in the private sector.
I mean, I'm just being honest. So they're extremely hard working,
very innovative, highly educated, very dynamic. Uh and and they

(03:11):
produce real wealth, real you know quality. They're they're productive,
and they hire people, they create jobs, they create great products,
great they give great services. So yeah, I wish you
all the success in the world. Yeah you want to
make millions, please go ahead. You deserve it, you work
for it, You've earned it. You're contributing real value to society.

(03:35):
These are grifters in fact, to be honest with you,
they're just it's organized crime, but they're smarter. They're just Look.
I used to always say this, and it's more true
now than it ever was. If somebody walks up to me,
and he says, Jeff, I have no talent. I'm lazy.

(04:00):
I don't want to work very hard. I really I
don't care for my country. I want to make a
lot of money. I want to be very successful. I
want to have a very comfortable life, and I don't
want to have to earn my money. Should I get
into the mob? Should I become I don't know, a

(04:21):
drug trafficker, a drug dealer, whatever. No, because I'm telling
you you're likely going to get killed, or you're gonna
get arrested, and you're going to go to jail. What
you really should do is get into politics, because it's
essentially a license to steal. Now, you have to have
no conscience. You have to be able to lie to

(04:43):
people's faces without like shameless. You have to be utterly
what the Jews say, hutzpah. You have to be brazen,
no cheek, as the English used to say. Now just
I'm using Schumer as an example. Okay, here's a guy, Maggie.
I could play you hundreds of cuts going back thirty years.

Speaker 4 (05:08):
You don't do a shut down. Shutdowns are destructive. Shut
down it's almost treason reckless, irresponsible. My god, how can
you do this. It's the most demoral thing you can do. Now,
we need a shut down healthcare. Kids are dying.

Speaker 1 (05:30):
How many years have you guys been going around with
health care policy? And remember when they sold Obamacare to
us there with Schumer saying you'll never see another child
go without health insurance again, no child will go untreated
if they have cancer. All you've got to do is
post Obamacare. They lie and lie and lie like a

(05:53):
cheap used car salesman. And that's the only skill they have.
They lie to you without even batting an eye. Now,
to be honest, Maggie, I swear to you like I'm
in a confessional. Believe it or not, them I still
get because they're basically political gangsters.

Speaker 2 (06:14):
That's what they are.

Speaker 1 (06:14):
They're political gangsters. They even dress like political gangsters, they
talk like political gangsters, they act like political gangsters. Now
them I get because you're talking about who would hire
Chuck Schumer for anything? I'm just using him as an example.
Hakeem Jeffries. Who would hire this loser John Thune, this

(06:36):
machine man. You wind them up like a doll and
there is something that spits out of his mouth. Or
are Mini Mike who the hell would hire Mini Mike
for anything, Mike Johnson. But at least they're lining their pockets.
I get their self interest. Okay, just to quickly wrap

(06:56):
up what I was saying, I want to go right
back to the full phone lines. So, yeah, these are
political gangsters. And once you understand that, everything makes sense.
They're there to steal, They're there to embezzle. They're there
to line their pockets. They're there to lie to you.
They're there to serve themselves. They are venal, they're corrupt.

(07:20):
Their biggest skill is they are pathological liars and said,
as I said, they have no face, they don't care.
They will lie and lie and lie, and literally they
will take one position one day, take the exact opposite
position the next day, and not even blink. Now, if
you're that kind of person, then politics is for you.

(07:46):
If you're not, then politics discuss you. It truly is disgusting.
And if you notice, that's why someone like Trump, who's
not like that, is a person of principle, a man
of the private sector, a man who comes from business.
Whatever you think about him or his character or his
personality or you know, his wives, or whatever you think

(08:06):
about his background, the man was a genuine entrepreneur who
built things, produced real value, had a very thriving, successful
financial empire, and is worth billions of dollars. That's why
he always has this look around him like they're just
all a bunch of frauds. Now again, at least with

(08:29):
these sleep take a guy like Chuck Schumer. Chuck Schumer
is a very wealthy man. He has stolen a lot
of money. So I understand he's fighting for his power.
He's fighting to remain and retain his power. So him
in a sick, evil twisted way, I get. I get,
I can wrap my mind around a guy like him.

(08:51):
What I don't get they are the bills in Sudbury.
And I'm just using Bill as an example. The crazy
activist who aren't getting rich, who at best are maybe
getting crumbs off the table, okay, a welfare check, some
kind of a government handout. What the hell are you

(09:15):
doing parroting their lives? That's the scary thing. It was
the same thing when I used to go back to
my parents' is Anceto, to the ancestral homeland, to my
parents' old country where they were born and raised under
the you know, behind the iron curtain. I'd be like, Okay,
the communist apparachick, I get why he's lying because he's stealing,

(09:39):
and he lives in a datcha. He lives better, He
has a nice apartment. He you know, he has things
that most people don't. But the person on the ground
who's living in such poverty and misery and is being
shafted and fleeced, frankly screwed over by the communist regime,

(10:00):
and you're swallowing their lies, and you're repeating and parroting
their lies. Honestly, they believe The politicians don't even believe
what they're saying. The bills in Sudbury believe what they're saying.
That's the scariest thing of all. That's why you kind

(10:20):
of look at him and you're like, dude, what is
wrong with you? Now? Let me just say this. I
put it up on X last night. Now it's a
little bit off, but it goes back to John and
Peabody's point and Maggie's point. What are politicians doing for us?

(10:42):
What is the establishment? What is the political class doing
for us? And the rise of stupid people, stupid people
in government and stupid people who vote for stupid people
in government. In Massachusetts, residents got their energy bill again.

(11:05):
I got mine, My neighbors got theirs. Most people in
Massachusetts got their latest energy bill. It is up another
twenty freaking percent, another twenty percent, massive increase. It keeps
going up. It goes up. It never goes down. But

(11:29):
and I don't mean it goes up a percent, two percent,
three percent. It keeps going up fifteen, twenty, twenty five
percent every three to four months. Bang bang, bang bang.
You can set your watch to it now. As I
said on X and this has to be repeated now.
This is like saying two plus two equals four. I'm

(11:54):
just giving a statement a fact. In Massachusetts. This is
undeeniying under Governor Holded Heally, under Moray Healey, under democratic rule.
Democrats control the entire legislature, They control the governorship, They
control most marities, they control the mayor of Boston. They

(12:15):
run this state. You want to talk about a political mafia.
This is a one party state. They run it here.
It is under the Democrats and under Healey, they have
now crushed the middle class. Skyrocketing energy costs. It's undeniable

(12:36):
record energy costs. Energy bills never higher, the energy rates
never higher, home heating never higher, thousands and thousands and
thousands of dollars. Record taxes never higher in the history

(12:58):
of Massachusetts. Never higher. It's a fact. Soaring housing prices
never higher. Home prices have never been higher in Massachusetts.
Rents soaring, never been higher. She's declared war on taxpayers

(13:24):
and the middle and working class. All people now are
working for is to pay their freaking energy, their utility bills,
pay their taxes. You're barely able to pay your mortgage
or pay your rent. Good luck if you want to
buy a home, because it's out of reach for nineteen

(13:46):
to ninety five percent of the population. So you tell me,
how the hell do stupid people keep electing these people
like Healy and keep re electing Democrats. I'm just stating
the obvious, and then to state a further obvious point,
where the hell is the mass GOP? Where's the Republican Party?

(14:12):
You should be politically feasting right now. All you've got
to do is run against the skyrocketing energy costs. That's it.
That's it. Run against the high energy bills, run against
the record taxes, run against how buying a home is
now unaffordable for the overwhelming majority of people in Massachusetts,

(14:37):
and pretty soon they can't even pay their rent, nothing, nothing.
How stupid can you be because they're corrupt, because they
don't want to win, because it's not about the truth,

(14:57):
it's not about defending the people interests. It's about being
controlled opposition and lining your freaking pockets. It's really that simple.
And so going back to the shutdown, as Maggie said,
and she's right, she goes, how come neither political party

(15:21):
works for us? I'll tell you why. Follow the money.
Every member of Congress, Republican or Democrat, once they get elected,
they may come in poor. They all walk out multi

(15:41):
multi multi millionaires, and they're all getting one hundred and
seventy five thousand dollars a year salary. It's a little
higher in the Senate about two hundred grand. And stupid
people don't say, how is that happening? How is that happening?

(16:02):
And they're stealing from us. It's coming at our expense.
So to Bill and Sedbury, I'm just using him as
an example. You like paying record heating bills, You like
to pay a record utility bill, like you like to
pay all that you like to pay if you do

(16:23):
pay taxes, you like paying record taxes, You like paying
three thousand dollars a month for one and a half
or two and a half apartment, You like not being
able to afford a house. Okay, I want to go
right to the phone lines. This is from seven oh three, Jeff,

(16:44):
So forgive me. This is from five oh eight, Jeff.
As to the soaring and record energy costs here in Massachusetts.
What I've also noticed the delivery charge for the energy
I use costs more than the actual energy that I use.
That's my point. That's the racket. That's this whole Green

(17:08):
New Deal climate change scam. It's deliberate to keep costs
higher and higher and higher to force us off fossil
fuels and eventually force us to win in solar. That's
why the high cost that you're paying is deliberate. It's
a deliberate policy by Heale, by the Democrats. Now, my

(17:31):
point being just stupid people voting for stupid politicians or
stupid Republicans at the mass GOP Committee who obviously don't
want to win elections. Here's what you say, your energy costs,
the delivery is not going to be higher than what

(17:53):
you use. Those days are over, man. So I'm gonna
run on lower energy costs, lowering home prices and rents.
We're gonna start cutting taxes, and we're gonna deport illegal aliens.
We're gonna end sanctuary cities. In other words, I'm ending

(18:17):
the war on the middle and working class. Boom. You've
just won an election, I'm telling you, even in Massachusetts,
you just won. I mean it's not rocket science, really
bread and butter issues. But does anybody care? Six one
seven two six six sixty eight sixty eight is the number? Okay, yeah,

(18:42):
pole Question of the day sponsored by Marios Marios Quality Roofing,
siding and Windows. And it's really I think, uh, very
apropos for the government shutdown. Now we're all about to that.
We are enduring, as I talked to you. So it

(19:03):
happened last night at midnight. So let me ask you
who is going to k first on the shutdown? A
Democrats B Republicans. Who do you think will surrender or
blink first? A? Democrats B Republicans. You can vote on

(19:27):
our web page w r KO dot com slash cooner
w r KO dot com slash cooner. Kuh and is
in National R and of course you can vote via
X and again last night superactive on X my handle.
There all one word at the Kooner Report. At the

(19:49):
Kooner Report, kuh N is in national Er. In the past,
I would have voted A. Sorry B. Republicans they always cave,
That's all they do is cave. This is different. This
is a Trump Republican party, and Trump's giving out the orders.

(20:13):
This time, the Democrats cave. The Republicans will not cave.
My money's on Trump. I think he's going to break
the Democrats, and so I would vote A. I think
the Democrats will be the first to cave. But that's me.
I want to hear from you, Tom, Red White and
Blue dynamite baby in New Jersey. Thanks for holding Tom

(20:38):
and welcome.

Speaker 5 (20:40):
God country family. And then the Kooner Report. That's red,
white and blue dynamite baby.

Speaker 2 (20:49):
Tom.

Speaker 1 (20:50):
What do you make of the shutdown? My friend.

Speaker 5 (20:53):
Jeff? First of all, God health you, buddy. I hope
you're well. We need you desperately.

Speaker 1 (20:58):
I'm getting better, Yes, every day, ribs are getting better.
Thank you, Tom.

Speaker 5 (21:02):
Awesome. If you're welcome, Jeff, Jeff, These lefty Democrats are
committing financial treason on the United States of America. I
want all Americans to go to the US debt clock.
We're approaching thirty eight trillion in national debt, and what

(21:22):
never gets talked about, Jeff, there's one hundred and five
trillion in unfunded liabilities that are down the road. Social
Security goes bankrupt in two thoy thirty four, and we're
all looking at a twenty percent cut. What bankruptcy means
is there is more outflow in Social Security in two

(21:46):
thy thirty four than there is inflow. Jeff, I think
we should declare an in pass. This is not the
art of the deal, this is the art of the correction.
Let these democrats bring their budget to the Supreme Court
of the United States. Let's bring our correction budget, which

(22:09):
is pre scamdemic plandemic spending, to the Supreme Court of
the United States. And just like in a divorce court, Jeff,
which fortunately I've never I only know of, I've never experienced.
Thank God, let's bring it to the court House and
let's have these the Supreme Court declare for the sake

(22:34):
of our financial security, because we're going bankrupt at some point.
It's not if it's a matter it's not if it's when,
and Jeff, because these Democrats they're never going to agree,
and if we agree with them, it's going to be
more deficit spending. We have to get this corrected. We're

(22:57):
approaching the edge of the cliff and I think it's time, Jeff,
I really do that. We've got to do something different here.
And this shutdown is another get Trump, Jeff, that's what
this iset Trump.

Speaker 1 (23:11):
Oh you're right. No, No, it's you're right. This is
to spit in Trump's face. This is more resistance. This
is just oppose for the sake of opposing. Yeah, get Trump,
burn him, burn the government in many ways, burn the
country down. But I got to tell you, uh uh,
Tom buddy, I think the Democrats this time really overplay

(23:33):
their hand. And I just want to play this cut.
This is Russ Vote. He's the budget director under President
Trump Office of Management and Budget Director. And this is
what he said on Fox. And look at the way
I've never seen Republicans this strong, this vocal and counter

(23:53):
punching this effectively. And look at the way he's portraying
the Democrats. I mean, they really got him. Six ways
to Sunday listen now to vote. And by the way,
he's the guy who's sharpening his knife to make all
these cuts now that the shutdown's taking place. He's been
waiting twenty years to carve up the federal bureaucracy. Twenty years.

(24:16):
So he told Trump, if they shut it down, turn
me loose, baby. This is going to be Doge on steroids.
Listen now to OMB Director Russ vote roll cut nine, Mic.

Speaker 5 (24:32):
We have the.

Speaker 6 (24:33):
Authority to make permanent change to the bureaucracy here in government.
And I think the takeaway for the American people is
that we are on the brink of a government shutdown
that is caused entirely by Democrats based on their outrageous
demands of about one point five trillion dollars. And when
you hear them talk about healthcare, all they're talking about
is keeping illegals on these healthcare programs. They're talking about

(24:56):
preserving most of the time fraudulent payments to ensure companies
for people that don't even know that they have a
health care plan. That's what you're talking about. And so
we're not going to be held hostage to these kinds
of insane, ridiculous demands by the Democrats.

Speaker 1 (25:13):
Tom this never happened under Kevin McCarthy or John Bahiner,
or you never saw the Republicans this forceful, this defiant,
this vocal, frankly, this effective. And it's Trump. It's Trump, Trump, Trump.
He's declared the Democrats have declared war on America. Trump

(25:35):
is now declared war on the Democrats. And they they
chose the worst time and the worst ground to fight
their battle now against Trump. And that's why if the
Republicans stick to their guns, the Democrats are going to
get destroyed. So don't cave, hang on and watch the

(25:59):
Democrats implode, because I'm telling you, the American people are
going to roast them. They're going to cook the Democrats
over this shutdown. Tom, thank you so much.

Speaker 2 (26:09):
For that call.

Speaker 1 (26:10):
Cindy in Maine. Thanks for holding Cindy, and welcome.

Speaker 7 (26:16):
Hi Jeff, thanks for taking my call, my pleasure.

Speaker 8 (26:19):
I'm going I'm going back to your caller a few
calls ago, John, who he doesn't see the difference in
his check. Well, I have big time. I'm a tour
guid in Boston, Jeff, and in the past we used
to see a lot of Canadians and people from England
visit Boston. I'm going to tour a guy about thirteen
fifteen years and the Canadians and the people from England

(26:42):
are very nice people. Been a notoriously jo.

Speaker 7 (26:45):
Not tip Jeff. My tips are more than double this year.
In thirteen fifteen years. We're seeing people.

Speaker 8 (26:53):
From Iowa, Missouri, Michigan, Ohio, Mississippi, Alabama, Kentucky. We've never
seen that, so in reference in my pocket, yes, I
have seen the difference. And as far as gas prices,
they've gone down a little in my experience, cheaper in
Massachusetts than Maine. But at least they haven't skywalkeet like

(27:13):
they probably would have if Trump hadn't won. So what
I'm saying in essence hanging there because he's just set.

Speaker 7 (27:20):
In the stage for what's going to happen in the future.
Thank you.

Speaker 1 (27:23):
You know, Cindy, before I let you go. It's so
well put by the way you sound like me at
the dinner table, because that's the debate I have with Grace,
And when I'm on the phone with my sister in
law in Arizona or my sister in Arizona, I'm like, A,
it is better, I disagree, but hold on, relax, give
it time. It's only going to get better and better.

(27:45):
And my god, it would have been so much worse.
Tad kamala one. So, Cindy, I gotta ask you this
because it's funny because when I was in Croatia, the
taxi drivers there were telling me the same thing, that
Brits and Canadians are horrible tippers. Oh, by the way,
for some reason, they had it out for the Italians.

(28:06):
I don't know why, but the Italians, the Canadians and
the Brits they go horrible tippers. I said, well, who
are the best tippers? They go owe Americans. We love Americans.
They go Americans are the best tippers. Cindy, do you
find in your business, in the tourism business that the
Canadians and the Brits are they're notoriously bad tippers? Would

(28:28):
you say they're cheap when it comes to tipping?

Speaker 7 (28:31):
Absolutely? Absolutely lovely people, lovely people.

Speaker 8 (28:34):
And when I'm hearing some contacts that I have, especially
in Canada, that big governments are telling them not to
come here because it's dangerous, and that's not true. And
one more thing, Jeff, if I may, we need to learn.
We need to learn in our schools just like math
and English, the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, and the

(28:56):
Bill of Rights, because Jeff, until I became a tour guide,
I had no idea.

Speaker 7 (29:01):
Johnny Hancock, Paul y.

Speaker 8 (29:02):
Vere Ben Franklin, Sam Adams, John Adams, Joseph Warren.

Speaker 7 (29:08):
My god, he was so instrumental. What a patriot he was.
People don't know these people.

Speaker 8 (29:13):
And you know what, Jeff, Unlike you, I wouldn't spend
a diamond another country. I love this country so much
that I am never going I'm not leaving it till
I see every state.

Speaker 1 (29:26):
H Cindy, that's a beautiful sentiment. Really, you're a great patriot, Cindy,
thank you very much for that call. I really appreciate it.
Uh six one seven two six six sixty eight sixty eight. Okay,
speaking of family disagreements, joining me now as she always
does at this time, doctor Grace, putting liberals in their place,

(29:51):
Grace Vuoteo. Yes, my wonderful better half and I definitely
married up. Grace.

Speaker 2 (29:58):
How are you?

Speaker 3 (30:00):
Yes, I'm very well. We agree a lot more than
we disagree.

Speaker 1 (30:04):
I know, I know, I know, But to be fair,
I want to talk about the shutdown, obviously, but to
be fair, you and I do have a disagreement on
the economy, right, I mean, I don't want to get
into it now, but you do think it's not picking
up the way it should. You're not seeing prices go down.
You think Trump has lost some of his focus on

(30:25):
the economy that he should be raised or laser focused
more and not doing things around the world, that he
should be focusing much more on driving down prices, getting
the real estate market up and going again, getting the
economy booming. So you and I have had that disagreement,
and you you know, your sister Laurie feels the same way.

Speaker 8 (30:45):
She agrees with you.

Speaker 1 (30:47):
Yes, sister Jennifer agrees with you.

Speaker 3 (30:49):
So the disagreement, the disagreement really came from the timing
and the execution of the tariffs, and everything I said
that was going to result from the tariffs has happened.
So I don't do we want to discuss this now.
But anyways, that flow everything down and we didn't get
ninety deals in ninety days. We didn't get that. But look,

(31:10):
I don't disagree that. I know what his long term
goal was, but it was just the timing.

Speaker 1 (31:16):
Warffs and you and I. But again, look, that's that's
a discussion for another day. Let me get to the
to the to the shutdown. Yeah, what do you make
of this shutdown? Number one? And number two? Who do
you think is going to be blamed? And who do
you think is going to pay the ultimate price? The
Republicans or the Democrats?

Speaker 8 (31:35):
What say you?

Speaker 3 (31:36):
Well, Jeff, let me tell you this. Your imitation of
Schumer earlier was hilarious. All the contradictions, that was priceless.
What you did I think was in the eight o'clock hour.
But let me tell you this, it is the Schumer shutdown.
I think the Democrats are going to be blamed for
this because what do we see every day? We see

(31:57):
whether we agree or we disagree. Like we opened the show,
you and nine not one hundred percent on the same
page on Trump's tariff policy. But regardless, what do we
see every day? We see that the President and the
Republicans are working so hard every single day. We're seeing speeches,
we're seeing developments, we're seeing policies. So we're seeing that
they're on the side of trying to get things done

(32:19):
on crime, on the border, you name it, on foreign policy,
they're all over the place. So the overall perception is
the Republicans are working hard, and the Democrats have put
themselves in a box because what did they do. They
exaggerated the rhetoric. They called him a fascist and authoritarian.

(32:39):
They keep going down this crazy road. And so now
their basis saying this, if he's a fascist and a
tyrant and an authoritarian, don't fund the government. So they
are boxed in by their own crazy rhetoric. And the
public sees this and we see that they are the
party of non government, they are the party of violence.

(33:02):
So this is the Schumer shutdown. I think they are
being outplayed, especially by the administration again bit to say
you're going to shut the government down. Fine, We're even
going to lay off other workers. It's all on you, brilliant.

Speaker 1 (33:19):
What do you make of the argument that Democrats are
making that healthcare is going to be the big issue
in the midterms, and by highlighting healthcare and claiming there's
a quote unquote healthcare crisis that in the end this
is going to boomerang against Trump and the Republicans. Do
is the issue of spending hundreds of billions of taxpayer

(33:42):
dollars to give illegal aliens free healthcare is this a
winner for the Democrats now tomorrow, and.

Speaker 9 (33:52):
In the midterms, it's not a winner because we even
see that Trump is ahead of the ball on on healthcare,
He's the one that's trying to lower prices overall.

Speaker 3 (34:04):
So they are floundering. And you know, of course, you
have Kamala Harris now making a complete fool of herself
on the book tour. So everywhere you look, the Democrats
are messing it up. But what the public sees is this,
You got to be kidding me. The only job of
the government is to fund itself right and to keep governing.

(34:25):
And when you see that there's a shutdown, it means
that the only job they're supposed to do they're not doing.
And in this case, that rebounds all upon the Democrats,
who are incompetent on other policies as well. So it's
clear that they're going to get to blame for the
blame for this, and they're not going to be able
to win on the healthcare issue. The only vulnerability that

(34:46):
Trump will have in the midterm that I see so
far is the economy. If it doesn't totally boom as
we all hope it will by.

Speaker 1 (34:52):
Then should youI the taxpayers. Should we pay for free
health care free legal aliens?

Speaker 8 (35:00):
Yes?

Speaker 1 (35:00):
And why are the Democrats so ferociously willing to defend
this to the point that it could politically destroy them?
Why are they so willing to defend the right of
illegals to free health care?

Speaker 3 (35:16):
They are boxed in by their base. Their base told
them that in March they should have held firm that
Schumer caved, and so now they have no choice. They
have to give them something because they keep telling them
that they are facing a tyrant, and this is one
of the ways that they're fighting against the tyranny. Right now,

(35:36):
they are completely floundering. They don't have a vision, they
don't have a leader, they don't have policies. They really
don't know what they're doing. And you know, Jeff, we've
had twenty one government shutdown since nineteen seventy six. Can
you believe that that is a ridiculous number?

Speaker 7 (35:53):
Wow? Wow?

Speaker 1 (35:56):
Okay, very quickly, the Democrats also say that they want
to not just give illegal aliens hundreds of billions of
dollars for free health care, but they also want to
give billions and billions for free transgender surgeries to miners
and children. So Should you and I pay for the

(36:17):
healthcare of illegals? Should you and I pay for free
sex change operations for miners who identify as trends?

Speaker 3 (36:28):
Absolutely not. And the public is overall standing with this
administration when it comes to all the border policies, all
of the efforts to establish law in order across the country.
And sadly, it's our military members now who even during
this shutdown. Sadly they're going to be paid but retroactively.

(36:49):
I even feel bad for them, like why do they
have to go through that inconvenience of struggling for a
little bit before they get paid back, you know, like,
think about this, if your check is missing for a
few weeks. I know that, you know, it's not the
end of the world, but it's still it's inconvenient, and
I think that the Republicans should emphasize it. It's the
Schumer shutdown. They care about illegals, and they don't mind

(37:10):
inconveniencing our core federal personnel, even our military members who
have to go, you know, without pay until they're paid
retroactively later. Like that's not fair.

Speaker 1 (37:20):
That's a lot of stress, Doctor Grace. Putting liberals in
their place Grace Woto. Grace as always superb stuff. We'll
talk to you next week, same time, same place,
