Dr. Robin Armstrong - RNC Committeeman / Galveston County Commissioner Joins Houston's Morning News

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Yeah, elections are about personalities, they're not about issues. Five
fifty two is our time here in Houston's Morning US.
Doctor Robin Armstrong, RNC committee man, Galveston County Commissioner, joins
us to discuss I'm trying to. I mean, I will
say this, President Trump does try to bring up issues.
But if you don't have an issue other than abortion

(00:21):
to run on, which is the only issue the left
seems to have, what else do you have left other
than personal attacks? Doctor Armstrong?

Speaker 2 (00:30):
Right, I believe the Digmocrat party has been here for
a long time. This election cycle has been magnified. You know,
they literally Kamala Harris is unable to really put two
thoughts together about policy, and the left has gone so
far left that they have nothing in common with the
American people from a policy perspective, and so all they

(00:51):
have is personal attach You said it very well, and
so they have to go after him. They have to
call President Trump names, they have to call his are
calling his supporters' names, and so they just have ran
out of things to do in the campaign. So fascist, racist,
I know, every election cycle, when the Democrats are losing,

(01:11):
that's what they do. They go to name calling because
it's really all they have. They're not devoid of any
ideas on how we make this coachry better, and so
they just they leave policy and they just call names,
and sometimes it's effected. This time it's not because President
Trump is teplon. I mean, none of these attacks have
been able to really stick to him and have affected him.

(01:34):
And I think in October, surprise is rendered mute at
this point because I don't think that there's any attacks
that are going to really stick to Donald Trump. Because
we all know about his his skeleton in his closet,
He's widely known, one hundred percent name idea, everybody knows
for the year. So I think the attacks are going
to just fall to the floor. And that's what they
what's been happening.

Speaker 3 (01:54):
Except except the sheer emotion of it all fires up
a base that refuses to see anything differently. I mean,
I know some really intelligent people who still just say,
but but but that comedian, that comedian, I'm saying, well,
how does that equate with Donald Trump? A comedian, a
bad comedian, a questionable comedian tells a black joke, a

(02:17):
bad joke, and all of a sudden, Donald Trump is
a racist. I mean, I don't understand how intelligent people
can equate that.

Speaker 2 (02:26):
You're absolutely right, And I have friends who are very smart,
very intelligent, worried about, you know, being rounded up, you know,
place in a concentration camp like the Asians were, are
placed in camps, in tournament camps. You know, people, smart
people are just concerned about this, you know. I there's
you know, folks who were homosexual who are worried about

(02:48):
their marriages being dissolved. Interracial couples are concerned about marriages
being dissolved. It's just silliness, and smart people are accepting it.
The problem with it share as I think that people
get so angry and so scared what it does. It
creates an environment where they hate this man so much
if they're willing to do anything to stop him. And

(03:09):
I think it creates an environment that is dangerous. You
know that it creates an environment that that almost calls
for political violence. And that's what I think some of
their folks are looking at and that's what they're that's
what they're doing. They get so angry until it gets
so scared because they're riled up by this, this this

(03:30):
political machine that has no ideas, no policy, So they're
just attack and attack and attacking, and they're calling them
the worst things. And so I believe that his base,
you know, some of this base is very scared and
and it scares me for this nation. You talk about division,
dividing people based on race and creed and religion. That's

(03:51):
what the Democrats are experts at, and they they are
they're doing it this cycle, and it makes me nervous
when they lose next week, we's be nervous. What's gonn happen.

Speaker 1 (04:00):
I'm nervous regardless of who loses next week, because I
think you've got two diametrically posed sides here who feel
that everything's on the line. Because Trump's supporters, and I
consider myself among them, feel that the country, the liberally
the country, the future of the country is on the line.
So would it surprise you at the end of the
election that there is potential violence regardless of who the

(04:21):
winner is.

Speaker 2 (04:23):
Well, it doesn't surprise me, because I think the atmosphere
has been creative for that. You know, I will tell
you this, Generally, it's a lot less likely if Trump loses,
a lot more likely if he wins, though, because I
believe that generally, you know, Conservatives have always been reserved.
We we fight our battles at the ballot box. We

(04:43):
go and vote, we work hard, we get we try
to take this country back. Politically, the left oftentimes they fight,
they burn, they loop cities, and so that's what I
expect we may see if President Trump wins, and so
we actually ready for that as a nation.

Speaker 1 (04:58):
Nice sir, Thanks for your time always, Doctor Robin Armstrong.
It's five pint fifty seven.
