It's that time, time, time, time, luck and load. Michael
Very show is on the air.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
If you look at those papers, they have a stone
cult and it was President Obama.
Speaker 3 (00:19):
It wasn't lots of people all over the place. It
was them too.
Speaker 2 (00:23):
But the leader of the gang was President Obama, Barack
Hussein Obama.
Speaker 3 (00:28):
Have you heard of him.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
That's the sound of the men working on the chain, Dandy.
That's the sound of the men working.
Speaker 3 (00:40):
On the chain Yang all day long.
Speaker 4 (00:43):
They're saying they were tasked to create an intelligence assessment
that detailed how Moscow tried to.
Speaker 3 (00:50):
Influence the election.
Speaker 4 (00:51):
Not if, but how they knowingly wrote things in this
assessment that were false.
Speaker 2 (00:59):
That's a sound of the men working on the chain
day That's the sound of the men working on the chain.
Speaker 5 (01:11):
Jay.
Speaker 6 (01:13):
There should be no fuzz on this whatsoever. The Russians
interfered in our election during the twenty sixteen cycle. They
did it with purpose, they did it with sophistication, they
did it with overwhelming technical efforts, and it was an
active measures campaign driven from the top of that government.
Speaker 1 (01:30):
There is no fuzz on that.
Speaker 6 (01:32):
It is a high confidence judgment of the entire intelligence community.
Speaker 3 (01:35):
That's the sound of the men working on the chain.
Speaker 5 (01:40):
Yay.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
That's the sound of the men working on the chain gay.
Speaker 3 (01:48):
You can't you hear them saying it should.
Speaker 7 (01:50):
Not be democratic or Republican. It should not be a
partisan issue to say that we do not pressure the
Attorney General or the FBI to use the mominal justice
system as a cudgel to punish our political opponents.
Speaker 2 (02:04):
That's the sound of the men working on the change gay.
That's the sound of the men working on the change
gay all day long.
Speaker 8 (02:18):
The singing my ma, my, my mo mama, my work
is so hard.
Speaker 3 (02:25):
Give me water, I'm thirsty.
Speaker 8 (02:28):
My my work is so hard, My mama, my mama,
my work is so hard.
Speaker 1 (02:43):
Well, it is election day, November fourth, twenty twenty five.
Should yield some very interesting results, we shall see. Let's
go through.
Speaker 5 (02:59):
Some of the more.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
Interesting of them. Locally, in the Greater Houston area, we
have the US House District eighteen special election. This is
to be the replacement for the congress What on andngression? Oh,
that's tract and it is a heavily Democrat seat, although
(03:25):
with only one Republican running, Carmen Montiel, in a wide
open primary, there is still a shot she could win,
and that would be a hoot. I am, of course
supporting her. Carmen. I think it's Carmen. There's a lot
of names, ramon. Your people like to have a lot
of names. You Just what I've learned is my people
just have to pick one of the names and just
(03:47):
go with that. We can't be keeping up with all that.
It's just too many in there. You got her name,
you're looking it up. It's Carmen Montiel. I just don't
remember all the other names. But she's very cute, very cute.
You got her full name. There's probably an Ave Maria
in there, maybe a Jose. You found it? How hard
(04:07):
is it to find? I mean, I'm just curious. Carmen Montiel.
Oh you were looking for music? Okay, Well, if you
come up with her name anyway. The eighteenth Congressional District,
of course, was Sheila Jackson Lee and then when she
died in office just a few months after being reelected
(04:30):
and just a few months after being defeated for mayor
of the City of Houston, which is interesting because she
got thirty six percent of the vote in the runoff.
Considering that Republicans turned out in good numbers especially Kingwood
Clear Lake West Side more than anything else to keep
(04:52):
her from winning, and Whitmeyer got close to one hundred
percent of those votes. She got thirty six percent of
the votes. If thirty five percent of the votes were Republicans,
that means that she won the majority of the Democrat votes,
because if you take those out of the mix, I'm
pretty sure a majority of City of Houston Democrats voted
(05:16):
for Sheila Jackson Lee over a Democrat. Mind you, Well,
that's kind of scary. You start realizing the eighteen congressional
district has had horrible representation because they're stupid. There's no
way around that. There's no way around that. You cannot
fix that. So then she was replaced by the ever
(05:36):
ethical Silvester Turner of Mitchello ultra fame, and he dropped
dead after a State of the Union or one of
the President's speeches. They're they're walking back through the tunnels,
and he collapsed. He had had quite a few problems,
health problems for a while. He'd had a answer in
(06:01):
his jaw that they had replaced, and he'd had quite
a few other chronic conditions. So then that opened the
seat again to this election for the unexpired term, which
of course just means the seat has not been expired.
(06:22):
This person would take office through next November, when we'll
have our normal even year election cycle. Texas Senate District
nine special election covering the North Texas Suburbs Republican health
seat after the incumbent's appointment to a state role, expect
(06:43):
a competitive Republican primary runoff that should be quite interesting
and it will affect the state legislature's balancers. Only thirty
one senators seventeen proposed constitutional amendments. My vote is yes
on all of those except for one four and fourteen.
(07:08):
One four and fourteen. You cannot look at your phone
in the voting booth. If they catch you, they will
stop you. You can print out recommendations, whether that be
mine or anyone else's. The Republican Party makes recommendations, The
state Republican Party makes recommendations. I have made reser recommendations.
(07:28):
There are people who get paid to make recommendations, like
Gary Pollin with Texas Conservative Review, which is disgusting and despicable,
But that's Gary Pollind's entire career. Nothing surprising there. But
you can take any material in with you endorsements, campaign mailers,
voting lists. Whatever you want. You can bring mail and
(07:50):
can bring any assistance with you that is printed out
in your hand. Our endorsements are at Michael Berryshow dot com.
It'll be the top item that pops up and it'll
be printed out there. Now I will tell you, because folks,
we'll ask why are you against one, four and fourteen.
Don't you want technical school money? Don't you want water infrastructure?
(08:11):
Don't you want dementia research? Yes?
Speaker 5 (08:13):
I do.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
What I don't want is a blank check that we'll
never get back. That's how the Department of Education started
as a good idea and ended up as a catastrophe.
And yes I know that Dick Cheney died on Michael
Berry's show. Today's election day from some City of Houston elections.
You got the number of state propositions, You've got some
(08:35):
special elections for unexpired terms. There are plenty of things
to vote on. Our endorsements or at Michael Berryshow dot com.
Gets a little complicated for people who are trying to
figure all this out. We'll wait a second. What about
the challenge of John Cornyan by Ken Paxton and Wesley Hunt.
(08:57):
That is not today that will be in the primary
which will come in the spring. And after today, which
is election Day, where New York will get a new mayor,
a city of New Jersey will get a new governor.
State of Virginia a new governor and attorney general. After today,
we will turn our attention completely and exclusively to the
(09:19):
primaries which will be in March. But that race for
the United States Senate's seat from the great state of
Texas has already heated up. As you know, the Attorney
General announced pretty early that he would be in that
race against John Cornyn, and John Cornyn turned around and
started running very negative ads on Paxton. But then the
(09:39):
race got interesting and complicated because Congressman Wesley Hunt jumped
in the race, and all of a sudden, Cornyn turned
his artillery and everything he unloaded at Wesley Hunt. He's very,
very concerned that Hunt might be taking his votes. He
even went so far as to call a decorated military
veteran West Point Graduate Army combat veteran helicopter pilot named
(10:03):
Wesley Hunt a coward. Cars from Wesley Hunt is our guest,
what did you think when you heard that?
Speaker 5 (10:10):
First of all, Michael, thank you so much for having
me on, Sir, I really appreciate you. Thank you for
your time, and thank you for fighting for us. So
when John Cornyn called me a coward, the first thing
I thought about was the fifty five combat airmissions that
I flew in bad Dad in an age sixty four
delta apatching. I think about my military service. I think
about the fact that I put my life on the
line for this great nation when less than one percent
of the country is willing to do that. I look
(10:33):
at a seventy four year old man who never served
in this country and wore the uniform never a day
in his life, and when somebody like that refers to
me as a coward, I'm not gonna lie. It makes
me smile because I realized one thing, and one thing only.
Only cowards who never served have the audacity to call
somebody that actually wore the uniform like I did in
(10:53):
this situation a coward of all things. And I realized, brother,
we're doing pretty good. It just means that we are
right over the target zone. And if I've torny and
if I have just spent forty five million dollars on
this race before the filing deadline and I'm still pulling
in the low thirties and high twenties. After being around
(11:14):
for over two decades, my frustration level has got to
be pretty high. And as he was resulting in these
kinds of tactics, even though he has had a blood
feud with Ken Paxton for the past few years, and
I have been in this verse for a cup of
coffee and now he's calling me a coward. It means
he's getting ready to lose.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
What did he say exactly about you was cowardly.
Speaker 5 (11:39):
There was an investigation that was done in Dallas on
his daughter and we didn't even write this piece. It
was done by the Dallas Morning News basically correlating his daughter,
who is a lobbyist in NDC, with some of the
legislation that John Quinn has passed. And so I just
simply reposted that to say, hey, take a look at this.
The slop is continue went to swap this is a
(11:59):
part of the problem. And then he said that I
was a coward for going after his family. And this
is also a man that went after my family because
he is complaining about me missing most because my child
was in the nick. You he also went after Attorney
General Paxston's personal life because of his divorce. He also
went after Hunter Biden. Let me tell you something. None
of us on this car fans of Hunter Biden. But
(12:20):
I guess Hunter Biden and Joe Biden their fair game.
He went after Hunter Biden and his personal life. So
at the end of the day, I'm like, the hypocrisy
here is nauseating. And these these are the actions of
a caged animal lashing out, a cornered animal that has
nowhere to go. And you're seeing this campaign crumble in
real time because a twenty four year incumbent should never
(12:42):
behaved this way.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
When you say a caged animal, what animal do you
specifically think of inside that cage.
Speaker 5 (12:49):
That case in it will be probably a seventy five
to eighty year old rhinoceros. That's the first thing that
companys good.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
I was thinking a skunk, But rhinoceros is good. That's
a big case. Rhinoceros are insanely, insanely powerful.
Speaker 5 (13:04):
I'm not the older one brother. You've lost his staff,
if you know what I mean.
Speaker 1 (13:07):
Yeah, I kind of asked this. Hold on a second,
I got a question that you just reminded me on
the power issue. Your right hand man. Uh and I
were texting to set up for today, and I said,
I need to know how much you could bench press
(13:28):
one time and how much you could bench press ten times.
Did he tell me you could benche three fifteen and
two seventy five ten times time?
Speaker 5 (13:37):
That's not right?
Speaker 1 (13:38):
Yeah, and your max me three fifteen.
Speaker 5 (13:40):
No max is probably higher than that. But but Michael,
I'm old. I haven't maxed on a very long time. Brother.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
What do you think you last maxed out at last time?
Speaker 5 (13:49):
Probably about three fifty to three seventy five somewhere around there.
Speaker 1 (13:51):
What do you think John Cornyn would do.
Speaker 5 (13:55):
If Mom Donnie couldn't do one thirty five? I put
John corn at about thirty time.
Speaker 1 (14:00):
Oh my goodness. Wow. So let's talk about what exactly
he called you a coward about, which was revealing what
he's calling a personal family detail. It's very important that
people understand in a conversation like this that there are
spinmeisters like Carl Ruve who are hired to come in
and say, we've got to get them to stop talking
(14:22):
about the fact that your daughter is operating as a
funnel a straw man so they can pay her to
kick the cash to you and your family's and this
is a family enterprise of our government, and it's very unethical.
So how do we do that, Well, we say, you're
criticizing my family. You're the one, sir, who brought your
family into the business. This daughter, as I understand it,
(14:42):
Wesley Hunt, this daughter, Hayley, I guess, was hired as
a receptionist than a paralegal for a little fledgling firm
in Austin that basically didn't exist. And then once they
hire her, they put her out front because she's a
corn in and they opened, they said, a very very
big office in DC. I don't I think pretty much
(15:05):
every Republican primary voter can see what that is.
Speaker 5 (15:09):
Every Republican primary voter can see exactly what that is.
This is why he is failing in the polls. As
we live and breathe in which you just describe, Michael,
is the exact thing that I see in DC every day.
And this is what I am trying my best to
fight against. The nepotism in DC. That the glad handing,
the using of federal funds and your hard earned American
(15:32):
tax paying money to funnel it to individual families. There's
something that has got to stop. This is the swamp
that just continues to swamp, that just continues to swamp.
And one thing that he attacks me on is well, Wesseley,
you know you missed that amount of votes and this
and that. You know, I really wish John Cornon missed
more votes. I really wish John Cornon missed the vote.
Speaker 1 (15:51):
That he took away. It might have been your best
line ever. Hold on Wesley Hunters plans. It's done for
a girl and the boy.
Speaker 3 (15:59):
I like a good Berry show.
Speaker 1 (16:04):
Wesley Hunt's line of the day. John Cornyan criticizes me
for missing too many votes. Well, considering the way he votes,
I wish he would miss more votes. That's pretty good.
Wesley Hunt. Congressman Wesley Hunt of the thirty eighth Congressional
District our guest after John Cornan called him a coward
(16:25):
called him a coward because Hunt reposted an article by
The Dallas Express that said that John Corny's daughter is
a lobbyist, and the lobbying firm built themselves around her.
She was a newbie to the industry. Then they opened
up a big DC presence with her as the face
of it. It's very weird. Folks, it's very weird. It's
(16:46):
Hunter Biden selling paintings for millions of dollars weird. It's
we can't find the cocaine in the White House weird.
Calling Wesley Hunt a coward a guy with an impeccable
military record is another misstep, you know. I think back
to the Clayton Williams and Richard Race where Clayton Williams
was so far ahead and it was just sort of
(17:07):
like everything he did he stepped in it, and you
couldn't help but notice it as you watched it. John
Cornyan is just stepping in it at corner, at turn
after turn. I think part of that is he's terribly
out of touch Wesley Hunt. As you've been traveling the state,
what are you hearing people say of Cornyan? Because they're
not going to give you an audience if they're happy
(17:27):
with their senator.
Speaker 5 (17:30):
What I'm hearing over and over and over again is this.
The first thing is is it's time for the next
generation of leadership. It's time for America first patriots, true
America first patriots like me. I'm the first person in
a country to endorse President Trump. I was one of
his top surrogates a campaign for him in Iowa, eleven times,
paucus for him in Iowa, flew with him to Las
Vegas in California and Pennsylvania and South Carolina and of
(17:53):
course Florida, and they're looking for people to carry on
that America First banner. And what I'm hearing from people
that is they're just finished with John Cornyn and that
jobs brother. And I tell you that because this summer
John Corner was pulling in the high twenties and low thirties.
This summer, he is now pulling in the twenties as
(18:13):
a twenty year incumbent. To give you some contrast here,
Ted Cruise today is pulling at eighty eight percent, which
means that the base is still with strong conservatives like
Senator Cruz, but Senator Cordon just doesn't represent us anymore.
I have been absolutely flattered by the reception. I can't
believe how well we are doing. And I look forward
(18:35):
to giving the people of Texas an option of two
conservative voices, me and General Paxson. That is the whole
point of this race. John Cornyn has to go out
with the old and end with the news.
Speaker 1 (18:48):
I think it has surprised people that you and Attorney
General Paxton have not attacked each other, but have both
said we need an alternative to John Cornyn, which is
what I expect did knowing you both pretty well. But
for people that don't understand that, explain.
Speaker 5 (19:06):
What people have to understand is that General Paxton and
I are going to go to DC and both of
us are going to be true Conservatives voting for Texas
and bringing Texas to d C, not the other way around.
I have no doubt that General Packton would do just that.
The reason why I've gotten this race is because in
the summer General Paxton was pulling in the forties, even
(19:28):
the fifties at some point, and since then it's been
a drop off for him. He is now pulling in
the thirties, and I realized that maybe, just maybe, we
need another option again. This is not about peeling away
of votes from Ken. This is about giving the people
of Texas a true conservative option. Once I saw his
polling numbers decreased, I also heard this a lot from
(19:51):
people lustily. We need somebody that can win the primier
election and also win the general election running away. We
need somebody that can step into the breach and do
both simultaneously. I am already outperforming both of them in
a general election versus any generic Democrat. So you have
an option to have a true America First patriot that's
(20:12):
in this primary, but also can be that Tyler Rico
on all read running away without it costing us hundreds
of millions of dollars. And these are dollars that need
to be spent in Georgia, North Carolina, Michigan, and Maine.
I just want Texas to have an option for a
conservative voice that votes like they want us to vote
in DC. Really, at the end of the day, General Paxton,
(20:35):
we know is a true conservative, and so am I.
Speaker 1 (20:39):
You know, I have not seen the cross tabs of
that big poll that came out. I think it surprised
people Cornyn in the lead, sorry General Paxton in the lead,
than Cornyn in second and you and third, But it
was you had a twenty two percent and General Paxton
had thirty four and corn had, say thirty one, and
(21:02):
you had just begun the race, and you've represented one
thirty eighth of the congressional delegation of the state. So
I think that was a big surprise that you did
as well as you did But my understanding, and I
have not seen it from the cross tabs, is that
you are pulling your votes away from Cornin and that
(21:23):
that's what makes him. Cornin versus Paxton has two very
different constituencies, low information voters that kind of vote for
the incumbent the name, you know, versus constitutional conservatives. And
so that was that. But some of the folks who say, well,
I'm not with Cornan, but I'm not sure if I'm
(21:43):
going to be with Paxton, are going with you. But
a lot of the folks are saying, I like Cornin,
but I like Wesley Hunt as well, which means that
you're doing him a lot of harm in that race, which,
as I think, why he's going after you, calling you
a baby, a coward, and trying to attack you in
(22:04):
these different ways, I.
Speaker 5 (22:06):
Agree more with you. And if you recall, I mean
this was a blood feud, then I always say this,
this rice can be about a blood feed between two men.
And if you recall, throughout the entire summer, going through
September October, they were running negative ads, millions of dollars
of negative ads against Ken and the second that I've
got in this race, he hasn't whispered King's name at all,
and for the last two or three weeks it has
(22:27):
just been the off slot from just a deep swamp
and John, they could clearly have been doing pulling. If
you've noticed, they haven't released any of the polling that
they've done because it looks terrible for them, and they
started attacking me. That's the Canarian the coal mine. You
know what's happening behind the scenes here. And most importantly,
(22:49):
people have to understand the power of President Trump and
the power that he has to choose the next Senator
from Texas, and as you know, he has to stay
out of this race under no circumstances to Donald Trump,
give me the winket or not and tell me to
get in this race. But I will also know that
he has selected anybody in this race as well. And
also know this, I would never have gotten this race
(23:11):
if President Trump told me not to. And we all
know he has no issues with telling you what he
wants and telling you like it is. So I also
want to give the President the White House another option
as well as this thing continues to play out, and
earn not just his support, but most importantly earn and
I mean earn the support of the primary voter.
Speaker 1 (23:32):
It's going to be very interesting because there is no
doubt and I felt this from the very beginning. There
is no doubt that your entry into the race. I
didn't think you'd get in. You and I had a
conversation early on, and you were coy and I thought
if he was going to get in, he would be
in by now. But I didn't think you would get in.
It takes a lot of hutzpah to do. So there's
(23:54):
another word we'd use in Texas, and you and I
know what that is, but it is it's pretty bold
to be willing to do it. I mean, this is
the big leagues. But when you did, I immediately assessed
that this is the death knell for John Cornyn. And
my understanding and you know better than I do, because
you were hearing about those calls is they were working
(24:15):
very hard behind the scenes to get Trump to put
pressure on you to stay out of the race. That
that all came from Cornyn. Paxton wasn't in any way
bothering you at all. Congressman Wesley Hunt as always, thank you,
my man.
Speaker 5 (24:28):
Yeah, bless you, brother, thank you for having me. I
really appreciate it. The girls all get pretty at closing
time when you're listening to the Michael Berry Show.
Speaker 1 (24:37):
So anyway, Dick Cheney died, I'll speak to the seventeen
proposed constitutional amendments in just a moment. There's some tax
ratification elections today for school districts, Bernie ISD shirts, Sybilo
Universal City ISD. You know Russell's got a location opening
(25:00):
in Sibilo. Did you know that You've got city propositions
in Dallas and Bear County? But it's going to be interesting.
One of the major reasons to watch the Texas results
today is that Texas is a battleground for national trends.
(25:20):
Results here could be a signal nationwide for where Republicans are.
You can't just look at wins and losses. Let's say
you've got a district that it's typically eighty percent Republican
and it falls to seventy one without the candidate changing,
(25:43):
you are sixty eight. That poortends bad things. That means
Republican brand is down. Even CNN's polling says Republican brand
is very strong right now, but that will change beginning
in January because the Democrats will do what they're very
good at and that is, they will find a narrative
(26:03):
they've been trying to. They thought the shutdown was going
to be it, and then then they got caught with
their hand in the cookie jar, feeding the illegal aliens
free healthcare when you don't have good health care, and
then they switched it to no kings. And then a
week later, King, can you feed me? And the president
is starving the poor people? But even CNN, and even
(26:25):
CNN and NBC have their anchors asking questions like, you've
voted thirteen times against ending the shutdown. You're the reason
people aren't eating. And I'm still over here going why
are we in such a health fire? Hurry to open
up the food stamps again, I don't understand that. The
(26:46):
New York mayoral election today, that is, you've got Zori Mundani,
who the President calls, I think accurately, a communist, He's
an Islamist, he is very, very dangerous. This guy is
Barack Obama ten X. And then you've you've got Andrew Cuomo,
(27:06):
who interestingly is being backed by Trump allies under the
theory that Curtis Sliwa can't win. It is a runoff
style contest, so will will the MAGA influence of what's
left of normal people in New York be enough. Probably not.
You've got left wing populism in that in in our
(27:29):
nation's largest city that that represents it's really not even America.
The constituency of the City of New York is not
American in values and nature, and you'll see that in
the voting trends I think tonight. And the mayor of
the City of New York is a very powerful position there.
(27:52):
That person has has incredible power over policing, housing, transit,
and New York is one of those cities that all
over the country you end up in New York for
one reason or another, typically or often, and so you
do get a sense of what's going on with that city.
(28:14):
We shall see a single statewide proposition alongside local races.
In counties like Santa Clara, all registered voters receive mail
ballots with in person voting available. California's massive electorate, and
how they vote, assuming the voting is fair, is going
(28:37):
to be a bellweather and an interesting test for West
Coast conservative for not conservatism, what's my word, progressivism. And
we're going to see what the mail voting trends are
when you mail out a vote. We all know that
if you mail out anything, what you're going to get
back is not an accurate reflection of the populace because
(28:57):
some people are going to receive mail ballots that's not
They're not even that person. There's all sorts of problems
with that New Jersey's election. You've got a term limited
Democrat Governor Phil Murphy, so you've got a wide open race.
You've got Democrat Mickey Cheryl and Republican Jack chi Terrelli Chiarelli.
(29:20):
She's been up by four to five points, but the
race is still within the margin of error. As a congressman,
she traded Dan Crenshaw Nancy Pelosi style a lot of
stocks and she caught hell for that. But we'll see.
I think it yielded her seven million dollars. Democrats have
a supermajority in the legislature. You're seeing some suburban districts
(29:42):
there flipping, but Democrats still have a supermajority in the
state that Chris Christy was the governor of. When you
see a Republican governor of a blue state running nationally,
you always have to be careful because Republicans get excited
(30:02):
that that guy has an R behind his name. But
typically what that guy has done typically doesn't have to
be the case, but usually is is cut deals with Democrats,
and frankly he's in agreement with him. I will point
you to Mitt Romney, the former Republican governor of the
state of Massachusetts. I will point you to what was
(30:24):
her name, Christine Todd Whitman, Christy Whitman, the governor of
New Jersey. Then you've got fat boy Chris Christy. You've
got uh. I wouldn't say that of John Kasick because
Ohio is still but John kay Sick's kind of in
that category because at that point Ohio was still sort
(30:47):
of fifty to fifty state. That has changed. You had
that in Wisconsin, which is another fifty fifties. So it's
gonna be interesting when Trump's not on the ballot anymore.
Because Trump won those seven swing states, and we'd love
to believe that that means that those seven states have
gone back to their original core of being for a
number of years Republican states. You know, the Virginias in
(31:10):
North Carolina is a Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin. I would love
to believe that's what that means, but I don't believe that.
I think that ending a legal immigration and putting a
halt to work visas will make a difference. I think
(31:31):
at some point if you import enough of the world.
Part of what made the United States special is our
brand of American conservatism, and throughout the rest of the
world it's almost not the case at all that you
have an electorate where the people get to vote and
(31:52):
vote for what we would consider traditional conservative values. You
tend to have this sort of revolutionary progress. Well, when
you bring people in from those types of countries cradle
to grave socialism, they vote for more of it, and
Democrats target them where they are in the food stamp line,
(32:13):
in the free stuff, in the housing complexes, and we
have trouble winning those votes, and that has been a problem. Plus,
you're overcounting these people, many of whom should not be
counted at all because they are legal aliens in the census,
and so you're apportioning congressmen on that basis. And there
(32:37):
are estimates that between ten and twenty congressmen should not
exist that are all Democrat because of illegal immigration. I've
seen numbers as high as twenty three. So we shall see.
It's an interesting day to vote. You could vote Harris
County all Texas,
It's that time, time, time, time, luck and load. Michael
Very show is on the air.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
If you look at those papers, they have a stone
cult and it was President Obama.
Speaker 3 (00:19):
It wasn't lots of people all over the place. It
was them too.
Speaker 2 (00:23):
But the leader of the gang was President Obama, Barack
Hussein Obama.
Speaker 3 (00:28):
Have you heard of him.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
That's the sound of the men working on the chain, Dandy.
That's the sound of the men working.
Speaker 3 (00:40):
On the chain Yang all day long.
Speaker 4 (00:43):
They're saying they were tasked to create an intelligence assessment
that detailed how Moscow tried to.
Speaker 3 (00:50):
Influence the election.
Speaker 4 (00:51):
Not if, but how they knowingly wrote things in this
assessment that were false.
Speaker 2 (00:59):
That's a sound of the men working on the chain
day That's the sound of the men working on the chain.
Speaker 5 (01:11):
Jay.
Speaker 6 (01:13):
There should be no fuzz on this whatsoever. The Russians
interfered in our election during the twenty sixteen cycle. They
did it with purpose, they did it with sophistication, they
did it with overwhelming technical efforts, and it was an
active measures campaign driven from the top of that government.
Speaker 1 (01:30):
There is no fuzz on that.
Speaker 6 (01:32):
It is a high confidence judgment of the entire intelligence community.
Speaker 3 (01:35):
That's the sound of the men working on the chain.
Speaker 5 (01:40):
Yay.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
That's the sound of the men working on the chain gay.
Speaker 3 (01:48):
You can't you hear them saying it should.
Speaker 7 (01:50):
Not be democratic or Republican. It should not be a
partisan issue to say that we do not pressure the
Attorney General or the FBI to use the mominal justice
system as a cudgel to punish our political opponents.
Speaker 2 (02:04):
That's the sound of the men working on the change gay.
That's the sound of the men working on the change
gay all day long.
Speaker 8 (02:18):
The singing my ma, my, my mo mama, my work
is so hard.
Speaker 3 (02:25):
Give me water, I'm thirsty.
Speaker 8 (02:28):
My my work is so hard, My mama, my mama,
my work is so hard.
Speaker 1 (02:43):
Well, it is election day, November fourth, twenty twenty five.
Should yield some very interesting results, we shall see. Let's
go through.
Speaker 5 (02:59):
Some of the more.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
Interesting of them. Locally, in the Greater Houston area, we
have the US House District eighteen special election. This is
to be the replacement for the congress What on andngression? Oh,
that's tract and it is a heavily Democrat seat, although
(03:25):
with only one Republican running, Carmen Montiel, in a wide
open primary, there is still a shot she could win,
and that would be a hoot. I am, of course
supporting her. Carmen. I think it's Carmen. There's a lot
of names, ramon. Your people like to have a lot
of names. You Just what I've learned is my people
just have to pick one of the names and just
(03:47):
go with that. We can't be keeping up with all that.
It's just too many in there. You got her name,
you're looking it up. It's Carmen Montiel. I just don't
remember all the other names. But she's very cute, very cute.
You got her full name. There's probably an Ave Maria
in there, maybe a Jose. You found it? How hard
(04:07):
is it to find? I mean, I'm just curious. Carmen Montiel.
Oh you were looking for music? Okay, Well, if you
come up with her name anyway. The eighteenth Congressional District,
of course, was Sheila Jackson Lee and then when she
died in office just a few months after being reelected
(04:30):
and just a few months after being defeated for mayor
of the City of Houston, which is interesting because she
got thirty six percent of the vote in the runoff.
Considering that Republicans turned out in good numbers especially Kingwood
Clear Lake West Side more than anything else to keep
(04:52):
her from winning, and Whitmeyer got close to one hundred
percent of those votes. She got thirty six percent of
the votes. If thirty five percent of the votes were Republicans,
that means that she won the majority of the Democrat votes,
because if you take those out of the mix, I'm
pretty sure a majority of City of Houston Democrats voted
(05:16):
for Sheila Jackson Lee over a Democrat. Mind you, Well,
that's kind of scary. You start realizing the eighteen congressional
district has had horrible representation because they're stupid. There's no
way around that. There's no way around that. You cannot
fix that. So then she was replaced by the ever
(05:36):
ethical Silvester Turner of Mitchello ultra fame, and he dropped
dead after a State of the Union or one of
the President's speeches. They're they're walking back through the tunnels,
and he collapsed. He had had quite a few problems,
health problems for a while. He'd had a answer in
(06:01):
his jaw that they had replaced, and he'd had quite
a few other chronic conditions. So then that opened the
seat again to this election for the unexpired term, which
of course just means the seat has not been expired.
(06:22):
This person would take office through next November, when we'll
have our normal even year election cycle. Texas Senate District
nine special election covering the North Texas Suburbs Republican health
seat after the incumbent's appointment to a state role, expect
(06:43):
a competitive Republican primary runoff that should be quite interesting
and it will affect the state legislature's balancers. Only thirty
one senators seventeen proposed constitutional amendments. My vote is yes
on all of those except for one four and fourteen.
(07:08):
One four and fourteen. You cannot look at your phone
in the voting booth. If they catch you, they will
stop you. You can print out recommendations, whether that be
mine or anyone else's. The Republican Party makes recommendations, The
state Republican Party makes recommendations. I have made reser recommendations.
(07:28):
There are people who get paid to make recommendations, like
Gary Pollin with Texas Conservative Review, which is disgusting and despicable,
But that's Gary Pollind's entire career. Nothing surprising there. But
you can take any material in with you endorsements, campaign mailers,
voting lists. Whatever you want. You can bring mail and
(07:50):
can bring any assistance with you that is printed out
in your hand. Our endorsements are at Michael Berryshow dot com.
It'll be the top item that pops up and it'll
be printed out there. Now I will tell you, because folks,
we'll ask why are you against one, four and fourteen.
Don't you want technical school money? Don't you want water infrastructure?
(08:11):
Don't you want dementia research? Yes?
Speaker 5 (08:13):
I do.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
What I don't want is a blank check that we'll
never get back. That's how the Department of Education started
as a good idea and ended up as a catastrophe.
And yes I know that Dick Cheney died on Michael
Berry's show. Today's election day from some City of Houston elections.
You got the number of state propositions, You've got some
(08:35):
special elections for unexpired terms. There are plenty of things
to vote on. Our endorsements or at Michael Berryshow dot com.
Gets a little complicated for people who are trying to
figure all this out. We'll wait a second. What about
the challenge of John Cornyan by Ken Paxton and Wesley Hunt.
(08:57):
That is not today that will be in the primary
which will come in the spring. And after today, which
is election Day, where New York will get a new mayor,
a city of New Jersey will get a new governor.
State of Virginia a new governor and attorney general. After today,
we will turn our attention completely and exclusively to the
(09:19):
primaries which will be in March. But that race for
the United States Senate's seat from the great state of
Texas has already heated up. As you know, the Attorney
General announced pretty early that he would be in that
race against John Cornyn, and John Cornyn turned around and
started running very negative ads on Paxton. But then the
(09:39):
race got interesting and complicated because Congressman Wesley Hunt jumped
in the race, and all of a sudden, Cornyn turned
his artillery and everything he unloaded at Wesley Hunt. He's very,
very concerned that Hunt might be taking his votes. He
even went so far as to call a decorated military
veteran West Point Graduate Army combat veteran helicopter pilot named
(10:03):
Wesley Hunt a coward. Cars from Wesley Hunt is our guest,
what did you think when you heard that?
Speaker 5 (10:10):
First of all, Michael, thank you so much for having
me on, Sir, I really appreciate you. Thank you for
your time, and thank you for fighting for us. So
when John Cornyn called me a coward, the first thing
I thought about was the fifty five combat airmissions that
I flew in bad Dad in an age sixty four
delta apatching. I think about my military service. I think
about the fact that I put my life on the
line for this great nation when less than one percent
of the country is willing to do that. I look
(10:33):
at a seventy four year old man who never served
in this country and wore the uniform never a day
in his life, and when somebody like that refers to
me as a coward, I'm not gonna lie. It makes
me smile because I realized one thing, and one thing only.
Only cowards who never served have the audacity to call
somebody that actually wore the uniform like I did in
(10:53):
this situation a coward of all things. And I realized, brother,
we're doing pretty good. It just means that we are
right over the target zone. And if I've torny and
if I have just spent forty five million dollars on
this race before the filing deadline and I'm still pulling
in the low thirties and high twenties. After being around
(11:14):
for over two decades, my frustration level has got to
be pretty high. And as he was resulting in these
kinds of tactics, even though he has had a blood
feud with Ken Paxton for the past few years, and
I have been in this verse for a cup of
coffee and now he's calling me a coward. It means
he's getting ready to lose.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
What did he say exactly about you was cowardly.
Speaker 5 (11:39):
There was an investigation that was done in Dallas on
his daughter and we didn't even write this piece. It
was done by the Dallas Morning News basically correlating his daughter,
who is a lobbyist in NDC, with some of the
legislation that John Quinn has passed. And so I just
simply reposted that to say, hey, take a look at this.
The slop is continue went to swap this is a
(11:59):
part of the problem. And then he said that I
was a coward for going after his family. And this
is also a man that went after my family because
he is complaining about me missing most because my child
was in the nick. You he also went after Attorney
General Paxston's personal life because of his divorce. He also
went after Hunter Biden. Let me tell you something. None
of us on this car fans of Hunter Biden. But
(12:20):
I guess Hunter Biden and Joe Biden their fair game.
He went after Hunter Biden and his personal life. So
at the end of the day, I'm like, the hypocrisy
here is nauseating. And these these are the actions of
a caged animal lashing out, a cornered animal that has
nowhere to go. And you're seeing this campaign crumble in
real time because a twenty four year incumbent should never
(12:42):
behaved this way.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
When you say a caged animal, what animal do you
specifically think of inside that cage.
Speaker 5 (12:49):
That case in it will be probably a seventy five
to eighty year old rhinoceros. That's the first thing that
companys good.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
I was thinking a skunk, But rhinoceros is good. That's
a big case. Rhinoceros are insanely, insanely powerful.
Speaker 5 (13:04):
I'm not the older one brother. You've lost his staff,
if you know what I mean.
Speaker 1 (13:07):
Yeah, I kind of asked this. Hold on a second,
I got a question that you just reminded me on
the power issue. Your right hand man. Uh and I
were texting to set up for today, and I said,
I need to know how much you could bench press
(13:28):
one time and how much you could bench press ten times.
Did he tell me you could benche three fifteen and
two seventy five ten times time?
Speaker 5 (13:37):
That's not right?
Speaker 1 (13:38):
Yeah, and your max me three fifteen.
Speaker 5 (13:40):
No max is probably higher than that. But but Michael,
I'm old. I haven't maxed on a very long time. Brother.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
What do you think you last maxed out at last time?
Speaker 5 (13:49):
Probably about three fifty to three seventy five somewhere around there.
Speaker 1 (13:51):
What do you think John Cornyn would do.
Speaker 5 (13:55):
If Mom Donnie couldn't do one thirty five? I put
John corn at about thirty time.
Speaker 1 (14:00):
Oh my goodness. Wow. So let's talk about what exactly
he called you a coward about, which was revealing what
he's calling a personal family detail. It's very important that
people understand in a conversation like this that there are
spinmeisters like Carl Ruve who are hired to come in
and say, we've got to get them to stop talking
(14:22):
about the fact that your daughter is operating as a
funnel a straw man so they can pay her to
kick the cash to you and your family's and this
is a family enterprise of our government, and it's very unethical.
So how do we do that, Well, we say, you're
criticizing my family. You're the one, sir, who brought your
family into the business. This daughter, as I understand it,
(14:42):
Wesley Hunt, this daughter, Hayley, I guess, was hired as
a receptionist than a paralegal for a little fledgling firm
in Austin that basically didn't exist. And then once they
hire her, they put her out front because she's a
corn in and they opened, they said, a very very
big office in DC. I don't I think pretty much
(15:05):
every Republican primary voter can see what that is.
Speaker 5 (15:09):
Every Republican primary voter can see exactly what that is.
This is why he is failing in the polls. As
we live and breathe in which you just describe, Michael,
is the exact thing that I see in DC every day.
And this is what I am trying my best to
fight against. The nepotism in DC. That the glad handing,
the using of federal funds and your hard earned American
(15:32):
tax paying money to funnel it to individual families. There's
something that has got to stop. This is the swamp
that just continues to swamp, that just continues to swamp.
And one thing that he attacks me on is well, Wesseley,
you know you missed that amount of votes and this
and that. You know, I really wish John Cornon missed
more votes. I really wish John Cornon missed the vote.
Speaker 1 (15:51):
That he took away. It might have been your best
line ever. Hold on Wesley Hunters plans. It's done for
a girl and the boy.
Speaker 3 (15:59):
I like a good Berry show.
Speaker 1 (16:04):
Wesley Hunt's line of the day. John Cornyan criticizes me
for missing too many votes. Well, considering the way he votes,
I wish he would miss more votes. That's pretty good.
Wesley Hunt. Congressman Wesley Hunt of the thirty eighth Congressional
District our guest after John Cornan called him a coward
(16:25):
called him a coward because Hunt reposted an article by
The Dallas Express that said that John Corny's daughter is
a lobbyist, and the lobbying firm built themselves around her.
She was a newbie to the industry. Then they opened
up a big DC presence with her as the face
of it. It's very weird. Folks, it's very weird. It's
(16:46):
Hunter Biden selling paintings for millions of dollars weird. It's
we can't find the cocaine in the White House weird.
Calling Wesley Hunt a coward a guy with an impeccable
military record is another misstep, you know. I think back
to the Clayton Williams and Richard Race where Clayton Williams
was so far ahead and it was just sort of
(17:07):
like everything he did he stepped in it, and you
couldn't help but notice it as you watched it. John
Cornyan is just stepping in it at corner, at turn
after turn. I think part of that is he's terribly
out of touch Wesley Hunt. As you've been traveling the state,
what are you hearing people say of Cornyan? Because they're
not going to give you an audience if they're happy
(17:27):
with their senator.
Speaker 5 (17:30):
What I'm hearing over and over and over again is this.
The first thing is is it's time for the next
generation of leadership. It's time for America first patriots, true
America first patriots like me. I'm the first person in
a country to endorse President Trump. I was one of
his top surrogates a campaign for him in Iowa, eleven times,
paucus for him in Iowa, flew with him to Las
Vegas in California and Pennsylvania and South Carolina and of
(17:53):
course Florida, and they're looking for people to carry on
that America First banner. And what I'm hearing from people
that is they're just finished with John Cornyn and that
jobs brother. And I tell you that because this summer
John Corner was pulling in the high twenties and low thirties.
This summer, he is now pulling in the twenties as
(18:13):
a twenty year incumbent. To give you some contrast here,
Ted Cruise today is pulling at eighty eight percent, which
means that the base is still with strong conservatives like
Senator Cruz, but Senator Cordon just doesn't represent us anymore.
I have been absolutely flattered by the reception. I can't
believe how well we are doing. And I look forward
(18:35):
to giving the people of Texas an option of two
conservative voices, me and General Paxson. That is the whole
point of this race. John Cornyn has to go out
with the old and end with the news.
Speaker 1 (18:48):
I think it has surprised people that you and Attorney
General Paxton have not attacked each other, but have both
said we need an alternative to John Cornyn, which is
what I expect did knowing you both pretty well. But
for people that don't understand that, explain.
Speaker 5 (19:06):
What people have to understand is that General Paxton and
I are going to go to DC and both of
us are going to be true Conservatives voting for Texas
and bringing Texas to d C, not the other way around.
I have no doubt that General Packton would do just that.
The reason why I've gotten this race is because in
the summer General Paxton was pulling in the forties, even
(19:28):
the fifties at some point, and since then it's been
a drop off for him. He is now pulling in
the thirties, and I realized that maybe, just maybe, we
need another option again. This is not about peeling away
of votes from Ken. This is about giving the people
of Texas a true conservative option. Once I saw his
polling numbers decreased, I also heard this a lot from
(19:51):
people lustily. We need somebody that can win the primier
election and also win the general election running away. We
need somebody that can step into the breach and do
both simultaneously. I am already outperforming both of them in
a general election versus any generic Democrat. So you have
an option to have a true America First patriot that's
(20:12):
in this primary, but also can be that Tyler Rico
on all read running away without it costing us hundreds
of millions of dollars. And these are dollars that need
to be spent in Georgia, North Carolina, Michigan, and Maine.
I just want Texas to have an option for a
conservative voice that votes like they want us to vote
in DC. Really, at the end of the day, General Paxton,
(20:35):
we know is a true conservative, and so am I.
Speaker 1 (20:39):
You know, I have not seen the cross tabs of
that big poll that came out. I think it surprised
people Cornyn in the lead, sorry General Paxton in the lead,
than Cornyn in second and you and third, But it
was you had a twenty two percent and General Paxton
had thirty four and corn had, say thirty one, and
(21:02):
you had just begun the race, and you've represented one
thirty eighth of the congressional delegation of the state. So
I think that was a big surprise that you did
as well as you did But my understanding, and I
have not seen it from the cross tabs, is that
you are pulling your votes away from Cornin and that
(21:23):
that's what makes him. Cornin versus Paxton has two very
different constituencies, low information voters that kind of vote for
the incumbent the name, you know, versus constitutional conservatives. And
so that was that. But some of the folks who say, well,
I'm not with Cornan, but I'm not sure if I'm
(21:43):
going to be with Paxton, are going with you. But
a lot of the folks are saying, I like Cornin,
but I like Wesley Hunt as well, which means that
you're doing him a lot of harm in that race, which,
as I think, why he's going after you, calling you
a baby, a coward, and trying to attack you in
(22:04):
these different ways, I.
Speaker 5 (22:06):
Agree more with you. And if you recall, I mean
this was a blood feud, then I always say this,
this rice can be about a blood feed between two men.
And if you recall, throughout the entire summer, going through
September October, they were running negative ads, millions of dollars
of negative ads against Ken and the second that I've
got in this race, he hasn't whispered King's name at all,
and for the last two or three weeks it has
(22:27):
just been the off slot from just a deep swamp
and John, they could clearly have been doing pulling. If
you've noticed, they haven't released any of the polling that
they've done because it looks terrible for them, and they
started attacking me. That's the Canarian the coal mine. You
know what's happening behind the scenes here. And most importantly,
(22:49):
people have to understand the power of President Trump and
the power that he has to choose the next Senator
from Texas, and as you know, he has to stay
out of this race under no circumstances to Donald Trump,
give me the winket or not and tell me to
get in this race. But I will also know that
he has selected anybody in this race as well. And
also know this, I would never have gotten this race
(23:11):
if President Trump told me not to. And we all
know he has no issues with telling you what he
wants and telling you like it is. So I also
want to give the President the White House another option
as well as this thing continues to play out, and
earn not just his support, but most importantly earn and
I mean earn the support of the primary voter.
Speaker 1 (23:32):
It's going to be very interesting because there is no
doubt and I felt this from the very beginning. There
is no doubt that your entry into the race. I
didn't think you'd get in. You and I had a
conversation early on, and you were coy and I thought
if he was going to get in, he would be
in by now. But I didn't think you would get in.
It takes a lot of hutzpah to do. So there's
(23:54):
another word we'd use in Texas, and you and I
know what that is, but it is it's pretty bold
to be willing to do it. I mean, this is
the big leagues. But when you did, I immediately assessed
that this is the death knell for John Cornyn. And
my understanding and you know better than I do, because
you were hearing about those calls is they were working
(24:15):
very hard behind the scenes to get Trump to put
pressure on you to stay out of the race. That
that all came from Cornyn. Paxton wasn't in any way
bothering you at all. Congressman Wesley Hunt as always, thank you,
my man.
Speaker 5 (24:28):
Yeah, bless you, brother, thank you for having me. I
really appreciate it. The girls all get pretty at closing
time when you're listening to the Michael Berry Show.
Speaker 1 (24:37):
So anyway, Dick Cheney died, I'll speak to the seventeen
proposed constitutional amendments in just a moment. There's some tax
ratification elections today for school districts, Bernie ISD shirts, Sybilo
Universal City ISD. You know Russell's got a location opening
(25:00):
in Sibilo. Did you know that You've got city propositions
in Dallas and Bear County? But it's going to be interesting.
One of the major reasons to watch the Texas results
today is that Texas is a battleground for national trends.
(25:20):
Results here could be a signal nationwide for where Republicans are.
You can't just look at wins and losses. Let's say
you've got a district that it's typically eighty percent Republican
and it falls to seventy one without the candidate changing,
(25:43):
you are sixty eight. That poortends bad things. That means
Republican brand is down. Even CNN's polling says Republican brand
is very strong right now, but that will change beginning
in January because the Democrats will do what they're very
good at and that is, they will find a narrative
(26:03):
they've been trying to. They thought the shutdown was going
to be it, and then then they got caught with
their hand in the cookie jar, feeding the illegal aliens
free healthcare when you don't have good health care, and
then they switched it to no kings. And then a
week later, King, can you feed me? And the president
is starving the poor people? But even CNN, and even
(26:25):
CNN and NBC have their anchors asking questions like, you've
voted thirteen times against ending the shutdown. You're the reason
people aren't eating. And I'm still over here going why
are we in such a health fire? Hurry to open
up the food stamps again, I don't understand that. The
(26:46):
New York mayoral election today, that is, you've got Zori Mundani,
who the President calls, I think accurately, a communist, He's
an Islamist, he is very, very dangerous. This guy is
Barack Obama ten X. And then you've you've got Andrew Cuomo,
(27:06):
who interestingly is being backed by Trump allies under the
theory that Curtis Sliwa can't win. It is a runoff
style contest, so will will the MAGA influence of what's
left of normal people in New York be enough. Probably not.
You've got left wing populism in that in in our
(27:29):
nation's largest city that that represents it's really not even America.
The constituency of the City of New York is not
American in values and nature, and you'll see that in
the voting trends I think tonight. And the mayor of
the City of New York is a very powerful position there.
(27:52):
That person has has incredible power over policing, housing, transit,
and New York is one of those cities that all
over the country you end up in New York for
one reason or another, typically or often, and so you
do get a sense of what's going on with that city.
(28:14):
We shall see a single statewide proposition alongside local races.
In counties like Santa Clara, all registered voters receive mail
ballots with in person voting available. California's massive electorate, and
how they vote, assuming the voting is fair, is going
(28:37):
to be a bellweather and an interesting test for West
Coast conservative for not conservatism, what's my word, progressivism. And
we're going to see what the mail voting trends are
when you mail out a vote. We all know that
if you mail out anything, what you're going to get
back is not an accurate reflection of the populace because
(28:57):
some people are going to receive mail ballots that's not
They're not even that person. There's all sorts of problems
with that New Jersey's election. You've got a term limited
Democrat Governor Phil Murphy, so you've got a wide open race.
You've got Democrat Mickey Cheryl and Republican Jack chi Terrelli Chiarelli.
(29:20):
She's been up by four to five points, but the
race is still within the margin of error. As a congressman,
she traded Dan Crenshaw Nancy Pelosi style a lot of
stocks and she caught hell for that. But we'll see.
I think it yielded her seven million dollars. Democrats have
a supermajority in the legislature. You're seeing some suburban districts
(29:42):
there flipping, but Democrats still have a supermajority in the
state that Chris Christy was the governor of. When you
see a Republican governor of a blue state running nationally,
you always have to be careful because Republicans get excited
(30:02):
that that guy has an R behind his name. But
typically what that guy has done typically doesn't have to
be the case, but usually is is cut deals with Democrats,
and frankly he's in agreement with him. I will point
you to Mitt Romney, the former Republican governor of the
state of Massachusetts. I will point you to what was
(30:24):
her name, Christine Todd Whitman, Christy Whitman, the governor of
New Jersey. Then you've got fat boy Chris Christy. You've
got uh. I wouldn't say that of John Kasick because
Ohio is still but John kay Sick's kind of in
that category because at that point Ohio was still sort
(30:47):
of fifty to fifty state. That has changed. You had
that in Wisconsin, which is another fifty fifties. So it's
gonna be interesting when Trump's not on the ballot anymore.
Because Trump won those seven swing states, and we'd love
to believe that that means that those seven states have
gone back to their original core of being for a
number of years Republican states. You know, the Virginias in
(31:10):
North Carolina is a Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin. I would love
to believe that's what that means, but I don't believe that.
I think that ending a legal immigration and putting a
halt to work visas will make a difference. I think
(31:31):
at some point if you import enough of the world.
Part of what made the United States special is our
brand of American conservatism, and throughout the rest of the
world it's almost not the case at all that you
have an electorate where the people get to vote and
(31:52):
vote for what we would consider traditional conservative values. You
tend to have this sort of revolutionary progress. Well, when
you bring people in from those types of countries cradle
to grave socialism, they vote for more of it, and
Democrats target them where they are in the food stamp line,
(32:13):
in the free stuff, in the housing complexes, and we
have trouble winning those votes, and that has been a problem. Plus,
you're overcounting these people, many of whom should not be
counted at all because they are legal aliens in the census,
and so you're apportioning congressmen on that basis. And there
(32:37):
are estimates that between ten and twenty congressmen should not
exist that are all Democrat because of illegal immigration. I've
seen numbers as high as twenty three. So we shall see.
It's an interesting day to vote. You could vote Harris
County all Texas,
